Dragonfire Afternoon Camps 2026-27:
FALL 2026 - ”Dungeons & DRAGONS: SecretS of the Giants”
A start-to-finish “D&D” campaign camp, across several weeks of in-person sessions at TDA - now with a longer campaign, so we can include more adventure! This camp is perfect for all players, but also great for kids interested in the game but don’t have much experience [Please note the ages and day of the week for each camp]. This campaign/adventure is a modified module which starts with a desperate plea for help from the working folk of Wild Valley: Giants hadn’t been seen there for generations, but now the townsfolk have got BIG trouble! Meanwhile, the Giants have taken captives, and are having some sort of secret meeting at their ginormous castle. Will you discover why the giants are raiding? Rescue the prisoners? Or, possibly put a stop to the evil that’s hit Wild Valley? Or perhaps your party will explore deeper, and find the secret of the Giants!
We’ll be using the revised 2024 rules for 5th Edition + some of Three Dragons’ homebrew monsters/places. Campers each receive a new set of D&D dice!
Ages*: 9 - 14.5+
Wednesdays, 4p-6p
Tuition for 10 weeks: 595
Session dates: Sept 16 - Dec 2nd (no classes on 11/11 + 11/25)
REGISTRATION: SIGN UP HERE!
Welcome, adventurer, to TDA’s “D&D: Secrets of the Giants” camp! We’ll be playing D&D, the world’s greatest tabletop RPG, using the current 5.24 edition!
On the first day of this campaign, campers quickly build a character from scratch using the DM’s online program (or choose from pre-generated characters, if our group is larger); then, together, we’ll form a team for an amazing indoors adventure! Fantasy worlds await! Dungeons, Monsters, Riddles, Secret Chambers, Giants, Dangerous Rebellions, Dark Elves, Traps, and more! The magic waits for you, HERE!
* = Ages aren’t always the best judge of whether you’re ready for D&D: inquire within if you have any questions or have a younger or older gamer. Thanks!
FALL CAMP II 2026: ”Dungeons & Dragons: FOREST of SUSPICION”
A start-to-finish “D&D” campaign, across multiple weeks of camp days, in person at TDA - now with a longer campaign, so we can include more adventure! This campaign/adventure is a homebrew module created by DM Phoenix, which starts off in the friendly fantasy city of Stonewell, and takes us into the Lost Forest and the scary hidden trails, ancient camps, and abandoned keeps in the wilderness. Will you stumble upon ancient secrets? Explore lands only beasts and monsters have ever seen? Survive the enchanted forest’s dangers? Be sure to be mindful of the huge monster, ‘Mauly’! [We’ll be using the revised 2024 rules for 5th Edition + some of Three Dragons’ homebrew monsters/places]. Camp includes a new set of D&D dice!
Ages: 9.5 - 15.5+
Tuesdays, 4p-6p
Tuition for 10 weeks: 595
Session dates: Sept 15th - Nov 17th

The magic waits for you, HERE!

CUSTOM D&D GAMES:
Have a special request? Are you part of a group brand-new to the game and want to learn HOW to play? Looking for a custom time/day, longer session, or an epic campaign over several months? Wishing for a D&D birthday party (adults or youth) in an amazing themed venue? Want a special ‘parent&child’ campaign where you can both learn the game? Great!
Three Dragons can provide you with your very own Professional DM for your gaming needs! Our team of for-hire DMs have skills and experience ranging from 3 years of DMing, to over 40 years of veteran game-mastery! TDA’s team also includes several styles of DMing: exploration adventures, fetch quests, social encounters/voice actors, spellbound & mysterious, story-focused, experienced combat veteran, goofball and punny - however, always our DMs are CREATIVE!
Celebrate a birthday or anniversary, learn the game, honor your new name change, or just gain a reliable group to D&D with for a few months! Bring a pro DM onboard for more excitement, more adventure, more role-play, and more fun!
DMs available for adult D&D games, or D&D games for youth- ages 10 & up.
Custom games can be scheduled & held at Three Dragons Academy, or you can rent rooms at Missing Piece, Zulu cafe, MOX (Bellevue or Ballard), Seattle Center, High Rock Castle, or other local & public venues.
Note: Except for very small (<5) parties, even “one-off” games should have 3 to 4 hours set aside for the best experience for all. Experienced groups of 4 or less can have a great one-shot adventure in about 2.5 hours.
Rates vary and depend on factors like lead time, group size, ages, player needs, and times/dates - however, for a ballpark estimate: a good average may be to expect a 3 hour session, per participant, to be similar in cost to a night out at the cinema for ~5 people. (Short lead/turnaround time & adding more players (7+) adds to the rate. Longer sessions / long term campaigns have a better/lower per-hour or per-day rate).
Some of our DMs bring a little extra to the table, like DMing in cosplay, custom handdrawn maps/handouts, songs & underscores, improv & voice-acting, etc., — and every player at a Three Dragons D&D game receives a free set of D&D dice!
We have DMs & DM duos who are also available for teaching/DMing “Intro to D&D” beginner games, to help your players learn how to play the game! (TDA also hosts ‘DM Academy’ Summer Camps for those interested in learning how to become a good DungeonMaster).
“D&D within a Castle”? Yes! Afternoon 4 hour one-shots, as well as stayover 2-day campaign options available; our favorite local castle-for-rent is High Rock Castle near Duvall/Monroe (highrockcastle.com/celebrations), about a 50-55min drive from TDA. Minimum party of 5 [rate starts at 210 per person, inclusive of a professional DM, a custom one-shot campaign, complimentary dice, and castle booking].
“D&D & Sword Training” - an extra special adventure experience: stage combat training with real steel swords from professional Theatrical Stage Combat instructors (trained/certified by the SAFD: Society of American Fight Directors) PLUS a D&D campaign! A perfect mix of reality & fantasy, swords & sorcery!

Note about camp enrollment, for parents: Three Dragons will give a few days advance notice if it looks like we might not meet the camp minimum. If a camp doesn’t have enough signups to be ‘a go’, families may be asked/invited to switch to the session that is a go. Thanks!
