Event Description

AQ Roleplay Gaming (RPG) Camp


Prepare for an adventure of epic proportions!

Aquinas College's Roleplay Gaming (RPG) Camp tackles the new Dungeons & Dragons (2024) rules with fractured fairytales! Faculty and camp “masters” will teach your adventurer to create their own unique fantasy universe, bring to life heroic characters and diabolical villains, and ultimately lead other adventurers through a dramatic encounter of their very own design. If you like D&D, art, gaming, theater, or fantasy literature you’ll love earning your Dungeon “Master's” degree from Aquinas this summer! Designed for novices and experienced players alike.

Returning this year are the RPG Camp and GrandCon ticket bundles! For just $45 more, adventures get a badge to attend GrandCon as well as two $5 discount codes to purchase additional tickets.
