Ongoing campaigns follow a continuing plot arc woven by a professional dungeon master. All campaings are held at the Griffons Den, a private TTRPG gaming venue located at Unit #202 – 920 Hillside Avenue near Quadra.
Signup to individual campaigns requires a Griffons Den membership on a pre-paid monthly recurring basis at a rate of $25/session. Players may join a pre-existing campign if there are seats available. New campaigns will take a wait list until such time as there are enough players to start.

DM Workshops
We host ongoing members-only DM workshops for those members interested in taking their D&D to the next step and running games, either for us at the Griffons Den or for themselves with family and friends.
Battle Royale One-Shots
Our Battle Royale PvP one-shots are some of our most talked about events!
From time to time we will offer these single-session events, with a variety of formats and levels. Team party-vs-party or solo everyone-for-themselves games have all been done with great success. Check out the videos of our past events:
Friday Night One-Shots
The Griffons Den hosts a variety of One-Shot adventures on Friday nights. Each event will be a stand-alone adventure, like a “Pick-Up Game” in hockey or WoW. Games may include a wide range of options, including regular 5e D&D one-shots, D&D battle royale, Big Bad Boss Fights and other TTRPGs such as Pathfinder, Starfinder or Call of Cthulhu.
No membership or long-term, weekly commitment is required for these sessions. This format is ideal for:
- beginners wanting to try it out before committing to one of our weekly long-term campaigns
- shift-workers and others who have weird or irregular schedules that make weekly campaigns difficult
- trying out different TTRPG systems
- solo or team battle royale PvP matches
- stand-alone Big Bad Boss Battles against iconic D&D enemies
- DM workshops
Register for each event separately, for as many or as few as you like. Sessions will typically start at 6 PM on Fridays and run 3-4+ hours. Seats fill on a first-pay-first-serve basis, so register as early as possible or you might miss out.
