How it works:

  • At the start of every month, the Storytelling Collective team will announce a tabletop roleplaying game system we'll be studying over the next few weeks

  • All participants will receive prompts, and questions to guide their reading

  • In collaboration with the StoCo team, a facilitator with expertise on that month's game system will host live calls and online discussions throughout the month

  • Participants are part of an online community where they can ask questions and share thoughts about that month's ttRPG

  • Toward the end of the month, participants will receive writing prompts to put their new knowledge into practice!

Everything you need to successfully learn new ttRPGs

You'll get worksheets with guided reading questions, live calls with expert facilitators, and access to a private community where you can ask questions and share thoughts

March 2024 Read

Pendragon Starter Set

This is a game of Arthurian legends. Do you believe in chivalry, or do you think might always makes right? Are you willing to die for your Honor? Will you fight to rid the world of injustice, or use clout and power to take advantage of those beneath you? Pendragon is a world of brutal medieval realism, that focuses on the emotional impact of play, and strives to make the players feel as invested, loving, and frightened about their characters as their characters themselves would feel.

Pendragon is a game that walks a fine line between lethal reality, and the idealism of a visionary life dedicated to the highest values.
