The magic of childhood is that you were constantly encountering new things. The best way to feel that way again is to fill your life with new experiences.
Ben arranges a game of D&D for the office in an effort to boost team morale. Leslie shows up mostly to support Ben.
Ann shows up because Leslie begged her not to leave her alone.
Tom shows up because he’s heard D&D is super hot with the ladies right now and has bought some very expensive, very gaudy, very not-weighted correctly dice that never seem to roll high numbers.
Ron shows up partway through the game after being goaded by Leslie. However, he believes this sort of “make pretend” to be lying, so his character ends up being a human fighter named Ron who has proficiency with woodcarver’s tools, because “these are all true facts about me.”
April and Andy don’t play and are just there to watch until halfway through when Andy becomes gripped by the role-play and joins in, complete with a really compelling, deeply thought out character… that has no character sheet.
Chris plays because he thinks it’s just the neatest thing in the world, but ends up dumping all his stats into constitution and creating a super unbalanced and broken character, realizing that he’s been doing the same his whole life.
Donna doesn’t show because she’s not interested in Ben’s “silly little fairy game” but that’s actually because she’s in a long-time, super high-fantasy epic campaign DMed by Matt Mercer and players Joe Manganiello, Lou Wilson, and Aabria Iyengar.
Gerry buys dice and a player’s handbook to learn the game and then gets texted the wrong address. He never gets to play.
