Uniting Gamers Through Epic Adventures
The Fredericksburg Dice Knights is a public, open community fostering togetherness through fun and inclusive Tabletop Roleplaying Game (TTRPG) events. We host multiple weekly events that are available to all to enjoy.
Join the Excitement of Tabletop Gaming
With over 500 members and counting, the Dice Knights connect people through the excitement of TTRPGs. Whether you are interested in well-known systems like Dungeons and Dragons or Call of Cthulu or want to find a new passion in systems like Daggerheart, Lancer, or Kids on Bikes, we host events that everyone can enjoy.
What is a Tabletop Roleplaying Game?
In their most simple form, Tabletop Roleplaying Games (TTRPGs) are a form of collective storytelling with some manner of rules to help guide the participants by adding structure or challenges. The appeal of the hobby as a whole is that there are so many different forms that the games can take. More traditional systems like Dungeons and Dragons provide rules for everything from character abilities to interactions with story elements such as non-player characters (NPCs). Others are rules-light, with each person free to guide their characters for the entertainment of all with only minor structure provided. New to TTRPGs? We love teaching people how to play!
What do I need to play?
We encourage you to Join our Discord server for the specifics of each event, but our gaming sessions are designed to be as accessible as possible. In many cases, the organizer of the game is able to let you borrow anything you might need, though it is always helpful to have a mobile device such as a cell phone, tablet, or laptop. We want to encourage everyone to be able to join our games with minimal effort.
Who can Join?
Our events are open to the public and free to attend, unless otherwise stated. As games are played in-person, we permit only people living in the Fredericksburg, Virginia area to join, though visiting guests are certainly welcome. Games are always conducted as family friendly (PG-13), though some events (such as Call of Cthulu) are limited to 18 years of age or older to allow for more engaging suspense/horror. We do require that anyone under the age of 18 attending our events have parental supervision at all times (parents: join in the game!) and that notice be provided to the game organizer prior to attending.
