For eight days, anyone who has always wanted to get a taste of the world of role-playing games can take part in one of the numerous events. No previous knowledge is necessary, because experienced game leaders lead the introductory rounds, introduce the participants to the rules and answer all questions about pen & paper. The participants only have to bring along the desire to immerse themselves in a fantasy world and experience an adventurous story as a fictional character that they can help shape.
