Imagine immersing yourself in the vibrant world of Veridys, an intricate homebrew setting for Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) that's been passionately crafted by seasoned storyteller, author, and professional Dungeon Master (DM), Elsie Farrell. Since 2015, Elsie has crafted an alluring universe that has hosted multiple campaigns and one-shots, inspired by her father's love for D&D, and it's within this realm of Veridys that you'll not only fight mighty foes but also discover the power of communal storytelling.
Navigating through Elsie's dynamic D&D universe, we touch on the joy of initiating new players into the game through community events like Dungeons and Drafts at local breweries. Elsie recounts adapting to the surprising challenges of a post-pandemic world and how digital tools have brought players together in innovative ways. You'll also get a sneak peek into how Elsie intertwines her writing projects, like her novel and novella, with her D&D campaigns to enrich the lives of her characters and settings.
Join us as we traverse the significant role of community in Elsie's storytelling and writing. Witness firsthand the impact players have on the stories she weaves and the world she's built. Take a deep dive into some of the most memorable moments in Veridys and discover how player interactions and decisions have etched unforgettable imprints on Elsie's world. To cap it all, Elsie imparts some wisdom nuggets for new D&D players and teases her upcoming novel. Expect an enchanting blend of creativity, community, and the magic of D&D!
