Roll for Wellness: D&D One-Shots for Mental Health Awareness
A PROTAG × No Land Beyond Event
Dungeons & Dragons at a board game bar: a match made in heaven. Have a good time, roll some dice, and maybe learn something about yourself along the way.
PROTAG is teaming up with No Land Beyond for an evening of tabletop adventure that's open to everyone,seasoned veterans and greenhorns alike. We'll start with a quick intro to PROTAG and how games can support mental health settings (we promise to keep it short). Next we teach you how to play, and finally break into tables for guided one-shot adventures run by experienced DMs. All adventures are built around mental health themes like self-acceptance, setting boundaries, and navigating tough emotions. That therapeutic work is wrapped in fun genre parodies and assisted by the freeing nature of gaming itself. No lectures, no homework.
No experience necessary. Pre-made characters provided. Show up ready to roll some dice!
This is for you if:
You've been meaning to try D&D and haven't found the right table
You're interested in how gaming and mental health connect
You're a therapist, counselor, or student curious about game-based approaches
You already play and just want to try something a little different
We hope to build this event into a reoccurring series. Come check it out, meet some good people, and see what happens when you sneak mindfulness into your fun fantasy games.
