Explore D&D&History: Postmarked for Peril (June)

$90.00

Embark on an epic journey with this campaign, which weaves together history and adventure.

History has a way of burying the most incredible stories under a mountain of paperwork, but the women of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion knew exactly how to dig them out. In this campaign, you aren't just soldiers; you’re the elite line of defense between a soldier’s hope and a literal "letter bomb." Armed with sharp wits, steady hands, and the unbeatable motto "No Mail, Low Morale," it’s up to you to navigate drafty warehouses and magical backlogs to ensure that every message reaches its home; and that the nasty surprises hidden inside them go "pop" before they can do any harm.

Grab your sorting gloves and your sense of adventure, because those six-million-plus letters aren't going to organize themselves. Whether you’re a rogue who’s a pro at "delicate unboxing" or a wizard who specializes in dispelling nasty ink-work, your unit is the heartbeat of the front lines. Join us for a journey of grit, sisterhood, and a little bit of tactical sorting as we celebrate the legacy of the Six Triple Eight. Ready to make a delivery the enemy will never forget?

Academic Fine-Print for Grownups:Students in this class will make imaginary characters. They will interact as members of the 6888th Battalion to sort mail and stop the additional threats. Students will be immersed in real-world history via a fictional, fantastical narrative. Optional homework about life “behind the scenes” in WWII and the cultural significance of an all women, all BIPOC battalion will be assigned, and they can gain credit in the game for completing it. Students will gain insight into these topics, as well as teamwork, improvisation, and math skills.


For your Curriculum Records, we will cover: 

  • History

  • Ethics

  • Intro to Academic Research 

Dates and Location: 

Please select your preferred date and time in the drop-down box. Classes will run from the week of June 1 (or June 3 for Wednesday classes) through the week of June 22 (June 24 for Wednesday classes.) All 4 classes will be held over Zoom.


Requirements: Age 8+, or at the instructor's discretion. No prior knowledge or experience of Dungeons and Dragons is required, as instructions for creating a character will be sent ahead of time. Students will be given access to an online dice roller, so physical dice are not required.


Class Etiquette: I expect and require gentle, respectful language in my classes, and ask that all students come to class prepared to treat each other with kindness. These classes are a great opportunity for your kiddos to practice social/soft skills, with the underlying perspective that we’re all in this together.
