TABLETOP ROLEPLAYING GAME

A Tabletop roleplaying game (RPG) is a game where you and your friends create characters and collaboratively tell a story. Unlike computer or board games, TTRPGs have no fixed options or paths; your imagination drives the game. When your story reaches a point where an outcome is uncertain, you and your friends will roll dice to find out what happens!

The players decide what their characters do based on the situations presented by the GM. The game progresses based on these interactions, with no predetermined outcome. When your story reaches a point where an outcome is uncertain, you and your friends will roll dice to find out what happens!
