How do I join?

We are excited you want to join! We have game sessions occasionally scheduled at our Middleton and Sun Prairie locations. Check our Event Reservations page for times and locations and to make reservations.

I don't know how to play!

We love new players. Brightshore is a world that is changing each time a player plays a session, so the more players, the richer and fuller our world gets. If you've never played before, we can lend you character sheets, dice, and a helpful instructor on an introductory adventure.

If you're learning D&D from another system or edition, let us know! A lot of our DMs have played multiple systems and can help you “translate” or guide you toward any resources you may want or need.

Who are you people?

I'm Board Employees

Although the bulk of the team is staffed by volunteers, I'm Board has a number of employees involved to make sure Brightshore continues I'm Board's tradition of a welcoming environment for everyone.

  • Bryan is the owner of I'm Board Games who has chartered us all to make this a fun experience for all players. He even makes some of the art for Brightshore!

World Weavers

World Weavers are permanent DMs that work on the lore and a lot of the behinds the scenes stuff.
