What we’re about
We're a gathering of gamers looking to meet new people, make friends, and play a variety of systems and types of games: role-playing, board, card, miniature, whatever. We believe in getting games off your shelf and onto the table. Our unofficial motto is, "Sure, we'll play that!"
We welcome new players and new GMs to the Cincinnati area. We also function to meet other gaming-type peoples, socialize with them, and integrate all the different gaming communities within the tri-state area. We encourage all people to play and run games, especially women, LGBTQIA people, and people of color. We also exist to help players find games and help GMs find players.

See all- D&D 5e - Wilderness Eve One-Shot Part IIICapstone Games - Retail Store, Cincinnati , OH
Want to learn to play D&D? Join us for a journey into the world's greatest role-playing game!
(This is Part III of the Wilderness Eve "One-Shot" but you can play this session even if you did not play any of the two earlier sessions)
Keblesan is a meritocracy that aggressively seeks out talented children from all walks of life. Once identified, the children are transported to the capital, their Classes determined, and they are trained to assume the roles of leadership needed to further Keblesan society as Guardians (ala, the Jedi Order). Members of your party were identified at an early age and have been training in the capital city of Perdai for the last three years.
Your party of Guardians was assigned to Wilderness Eve, the land that borders the unexplored Western Wilderness. Your party must employ their abilities and accomplish tasks that will make Wilderness Eve less wild. Your first mission is to locate a registered necromancer who has failed to report his whereabouts for too long, but rumors of orcs and goblins returning to the area are also circulating...

- Character Creation Station, at OurShopOurShop, Cincinnati, OH
Agenda: We walk players through the process of creating unique characters in EverLore, and then allow them to battle other attendees. This is particularly useful for Lore Masters (LMs) as it will answer a lot of the questions they have or will hear from prospective players. EverLore is a classless and level-less TTRPG, created by Cincinnati native, David Thompson. This Game Is For You!
This FREE event is offered to give LMs/Players a sense of connectivity with our game. No materials needed.
