 f="https://dnd.wizards.com/dungeons-and-dragons/what-is-dd">https://dnd.wi
 zards.com/dungeons-and-dragons/what-is-dd</a>&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Library staff
  will take the role of "Dungeon Master" and describe the fantasy setting w
 here the story takes place. Players will each control a character in the s
 tory.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Players will need the following:</p>\n<p>1. Access to
  Zoom\, a functioning microphone\, and speakers or headphones</p>\n<p>2. A
 bility to listen to the Dungeon Master as they tell the story\, listen to 
 other player characters\, and wait for their turn to participate</p>\n<p>3
 . Ability to describe what they want their player to do and listen to inst
 ructions</p>\n<p>We can also use chat and live transcription in Zoom for c
 ommunication. Please contact us before the program to arrange any other ac
 commodations.</p>\n<p>Library staff will supply character sheets to player
 s via email before the program. We encourage players to print out the char
 acter sheet and read it before the game starts. We also encourage players 
 to look at the rules\, but don't worry if it doesn't make sense at first. 
 The Library Dungeon Masters will guide you through!</p>\n<p>If the player 
 has a twenty-sided die (d20)\, please bring it to the game! The twenty-sid
 ed die will be used often to decide success or failure in the story. If th
 e player does not have a twenty-sided die they may use a <a href="https://
 g.co/kgs/neUcbz">virtual die roller</a> or ask library staff to roll for t
 hem.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>Content warning:&nbsp\;</strong>The Library Du
 ngeon Masters have created a story setting inspired by fairy tales and fan
 tasy literature. It is a setting where magic is present and players may en
 counter monsters. There may be some fantasy violence and description of fr
 ightening scenarios. The Library Dungeon Masters are working to create sto
 ry content that is appropriate for the 8-12 year old age group and will ad
 just rules and content as necessary. We will be limiting play to the Dunge
 ons and Dragons Basic Rules which are available for free online: <a href="
 https://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/basicrules">https://dnd.wizards.
 com/articles/features/basicrules</a>&nbsp\;. The story setting is similar 
 to&nbsp\;<em>The Hobbit</em> by J.R.R. Tolkien and players will be allowed
  to play the role of a human\, halfling\, dwarf\, or elf. Caregivers are e
 ncouraged to review the basic rules and send any questions to <a href="mai
