The storyline season provides a theme and plot elements that connect several adventures together, forming a sort of “mini campaign.” The current storyline season is called Tyranny of Dragons. Storyline seasons provide continuity to play. In addition, the rotation of a storyline season provides a time to begin new characters, update rules documents, and start new adventures. You can always continue playing an existing character through multiple storylines, as long as your character meets the level requirement for the adventures. What is the D&D Adventurers League? The D&D Adventurers League is an ongoing official organized play campaign for Dungeons & Dragons®. It uses the fifth edition of the Dungeons & Dragons rules, and features the Forgotten Realms® setting. You can play D&D Adventurers League games at any place that features adventures bearing the D&D Adventurers League logo. You can create a character and bring that character to games anywhere D&D Adventurers League is supported. Most D&D Adventurers League games are public, in-person play events. Typical venues for these events are game and hobby stores, conventions, and public- accessible game day events.
