This past Friday, we were honored to host Kelli Butler, the Opera Geek. She spoke about creating and roleplaying different characters as an exercise in exploring different aspects of one’s own personality. She also shared about her experiences — good and bad — playing in games streamed online for hundreds, sometimes thousands of viewers. We closed out our Open House with a Question & Answer session in which Kelli was gracious enough to share her thoughts on character alignment, best and worst in-game moments, and the importance of supporting Arts funding for education.
You can learn more about Kelli Butler at her web site, kellibutler.com or by following @theoperageek on Twitter. And for those who want to try out a new Bard College co-developed by Kelli Butler and game designer Hannah Rose, you can pick up a copy of the College of the Opera from DMsGuild. At just $1.99, this class archetype would make an excellent stocking stuffer!
Thanks to all members who assisted with planning and execution: Stephanie H., Greg S., and Loni H. And thanks to Cory and Stephanie H. for introducing Kelli to the club!
