JQT Mental Health Series: Dream Askew | Dream Apart

Dream Askew | Dream Apart are a pair of games by Avery Alder and Ben Rosenbaum, in which players collectively tell the story of Queer Strife Amid the Collapse (in Dream Askew), or Jewish Fantasy of the Shtetl (in Dream Apart). Each game is a beautiful, quick-to-learn, community-based Tabletop Roleplaying Game, perfect for both newbies to TTRPGs and veteran players alike.

Our players will determine which story they want to tell, in either one or two groups, and be guided by a facilitator through the process of creating characters, learning the rules, and telling a story that touches your very soul. The month of May is Jewish Heritage Month – as such, costumes are highly encouraged, and don’t be surprised if the stories we tell reflect that!

Character sheets, pencils, and index cards will be provided. Dream Askew | Dream Apart is built in the Belonging Outside Belonging system, also known as No Dice, No Masters, which means you won’t need dice for this event – however, feel free to bring them anyway if you just feel like showing off your shiny math rocks.
