Teen Games: Into to Pathfinder

Our program is currently full. If you are interested in a future campaign, email Jocelyn Kelly FMI.

Players will be introduced to Pathfinder first edition, create characters, and play a short campaign. This three-part session will get you started on your Pathfinder quest with an expert in Pathfinder! This is a great way for serious Dungeons and Dragons players to branch out or for those new to role playing games to try something new.
