Here at Arkhaven, we run weekly sessions of D&D Adventurers League, the official organised play program for Dungeons & Dragons. Whether you’re completely new to the game or a seasoned adventurer, Adventurers League offers an easy way to jump into exciting adventures while building a character that grows over time.
Unlike a traditional home campaign, your Adventurers League character isn’t tied to a single Dungeon Master or group. Instead, your character can travel between different adventures, tables, and worlds, all while keeping their levels, equipment, treasure, and accomplishments. It’s a fantastic way to meet new players and enjoy D&D on a schedule that suits you.
Our Adventurers League sessions are self-contained adventures lasting 2-4 hours, making them a perfect way to roll some dice and have fun! Some adventures are linked together into longer story arcs, allowing you to continue your journey across multiple weeks. Since each adventure is designed to stand on its own, you can easily jump in and out whenever you’re available without worrying about missing anything important.
After each adventure, your character gains more depth, through level advancement and the collection of treasure, magic items, and other rewards earned during the session. Between games, characters can also spend downtime pursuing activities to benefit their character in the next one.
Adventure League nights are welcoming to both experienced players and complete beginners. If you’ve never played D&D before, don’t worry; our community of friendly players and helpful Dungeon Masters will help you learn the rules as you play. All you’ll need to get started is a set of dice and a legal Adventurers League character.
Making a Character:
Creating an Adventurers League character is very similar to creating a character for a regular D&D campaign, but there are a few additional guidelines that help keep play fair and consistent across every table. Follow the steps below to create a character that’s ready for any adventure:
1. Choose a species (We recommend starting with any of the options in the 2024 Player’s Handbook)
2. Generate ability scores using the Standard Array or Point Buy method.
3. Pick your class.
4. Pick your background.
5. Pick your alignment.
6. Equip your character with starting gear

After following that process, you’ll have a legal character ready to take on any adventure!
