An Introduction to Your Adventure


Welcome, adventurer, to the first steps of your journey. Contained within these pages are activities that will help you imagine the adventures of a legendary character in the world of Dungeons & Dragons. Will you be a heroic paladin in shining armor who helps innocents or a rogue who charms their way out of danger? What monsters will you encounter, and what happens next? It’s all up to you.

You’ll chart the course of your adventure by completing the activities in these chapters in order. First, you will imagine a unique character to represent you. Then, you’ll expand and embellish your world, adding allies, villains, and dungeons. When the workbook is complete, it will contain your character’s legend!

If you are playing a Dungeons & Dragons game with family or friends, you might fill out this workbook about your game character. Otherwise, you can use these activities to imagine an adventure all on your own. While it might be helpful to have the other Young Adventurer’s Guide books in the series to consult, all you really need is your imagination.

Prepare your spells and sharpen your creativity: your adventure is about to begin!
