Legends of Greyhawk Play Specifics
If you’re planning to play Legends of Greyhawk, we highly recommend creating a character beforehand, although pre-made characters will be available. The character creation rules are present in the Legends of Greyhawk Guide, a short document that gives you what you need to get started! All characters start at level 1.
Convention Giveaways
While supplies last, all participants in the Forgotten Realms Preview will receive an art print showcasing the connected pieces of both alternate art covers from the upcoming Forgotten Realms books!
In addition, attendees participating in a demo of D&D featuring Heroes from the Borderlands will receive (while supplies last) an oversized d20 to welcome them as they begin their D&D journey!
Acquisitions Incorporated LIVE!
- Saturday, August 30
- 7:00 p.m. – 9:30 p.m.
- Main Theater, The Summit / Seattle Convention Center, Level 5
Acquisitions, Inc. continues its Greyhawk residency, but for how long? To what end? And with what army? At least one of these questions will be answered in this can't-miss, all-new, jam-packed, hickory-smoked, dickory-docked, live-and-in-person session of the longest-running live play TTRPG series of all time.
We can’t wait to see you at PAX West and give you glimpses of D&D’s future at the tables!
