Storytelling adventures and critical hits

Exeunt Magazine: I’m sitting in the pub with my demon-pal Bollox, deciding whether to use acid blast against the dimension-shifting spider in the basement. It’s already a busy Wednesday, what with the resurrected skeletons and having technically died for 12 seconds, last thing I need is to damage our stockpile of wine.

As an extremely avid Dungeons and Dragons fan, one of my favorite creative outlets is being able to create a story and entire world surrounding a character, and being able to bring that story to life with a group of people who are equally passionate about the game. I fell in love with DnD over lockdown, similarly to the author, but I never had a group of friends who were willing to play the game with me, that is until I got to college. Now, here, I have been able to join a campaign, and it is one of my favorite activities, and something I look forward to every week, because I am in control of my own story, I got to build the lore of my character from the ground up. I am able to build figures and make art, and do all of this creative stuff, and be able to live the life of this character all thanks to this game, and it really makes me happy every time I get to play.
