Before coming out to play in one of our events, please understand that our shoppe’s environment and policies may be different from other game stores you may have played at in the past. If you choose to play here, we ask that you uphold our policies while you are playing at the shoppe.
Since we opened 12 years ago, everything we do at The Wandering Dragon has been and is guided by our mission statement:
Everyone Should Feel Welcome: Everyone, regardless of personal background, lifestyle or player experience level, is welcome to play in any of our games. We ask all of our players to be kind to one another and help each other learn how to play and answer questions.
Everyone Should Feel Comfortable: Everyone must be considerate of those around them and adhere to our Personal Hygiene Policy. In a nutshell, shower and use deodorant before arriving. Wear clean clothes and avoid strong perfume, cologne or body sprays.
Everyone Should Feel Safe: We keep things family friendly, which for us means no bullying, no use of coarse language (no cussing, cursing, suggestive terms or sexual expletives) and no explicit or graphic content in conversation, on clothing or game accessories. In game, do not intentionally harm your fellow party’s characters, companions or familiars.
No Outside Food or Drinks: Also, just a friendly note so that you are aware ahead of time. While we don’t allow outside food and drinks, including water, tea, coffee, etc., we do have a full pantry and cooler with a wide range of snacks and drinks available as well as a menu book for our local restaurant partner who will deliver to your table if you wish.
Thanks so much and please just let us know if you have any questions at all.
- D&D 5E: The Wild Beyond the WitchlightThe Wandering Dragon Game & Puzzle Shoppe, Plainfield, IL
Once every eight years, the fantastic Witchlight Carnival touches down on your world, bringing joy to one settlement after the next. Its owners, Mister Witch and Mister Light, know how to put on a good show. But there’s more to this magical extravaganza than meets the eye!
The carnival is a gateway to a fantastic Feywild domain unlike anything found on the Material Plane. Time has not been kind to this realm, however, and dark days lie ahead unless someone can thwart the dastardly schemes of the Hourglass Coven.
Sessions Will Meet Every Saturday from 12:00pm-3:00pm
