Description

Overview:

Do you have ideas for an imaginary world that you KNOW game players or readers will want to lose themselves within? Whether it is a fantasy world or one that is science fiction-based, creating such a believable and compelling world requires a myriad of details that will need to be defined including geographies, cultures, economies, and bestiaries. In this club, students will be guided through a systematic process of the building their world resulting in a solid foundation and approach for them to work from even after the club is over. 

There will be no session Thursday, November 11th (Veterans' Day) or Thursday, November 25th (Thanksgiving), 2021.

Prerequisite:

None
