BEGINNER-FRIENDLY D&D SESSIONS: THE TEMPLE OF AMITABHA

For hundreds of years, pilgrims from every corner of the Middle Kingdom have traveled to the Temple of Amitabha, where they might pay homage to the Buddha of Pure Land. Through their devotion, these pilgrims hoped to cultivate themselves so that they might be reborn in Amitabha's Realm of Infinite Light.

However, recent travelers to the temple have disappeared, including envoys sent by the Emperor. You and your party have been tasked with investigating the suspicious circumstances around the Temple of Amitabha and, if needed, to purge whatever evil has taken hold there.

⚔️ If you want to bring your own character ⚔️

This weekend we had the amazing opportunity to partner with the Centre for Autism Services Alberta to host a Dungeons & Dragons fundraiser.

So people came up to us after the game to say "thank you for creating a safe space for us to play in."

We were so touched that we could provide a game where everyone felt welcome to be themselves. We're grateful to use our favourite game as a vehicle for engagement, community building and sparking change.

Thank you to the Centre For Autism Services Alberta for hosting us in their Centre 104 space. We raised $2147 and I got to hold the big cheque

Thank you to every player, volunteer, supporter and donor who joined us in the Quest for a Cause!
