This event is open to all teens (ages 12 to 18). Both beginners and experienced players are welcome. Bi-monthly sessions will occur on the 2nd & 4th Friday of each month.

The game will consist of one, 1 to 2 hour session for first level characters (opportunities to level up are provided between sessions).
