I ran a D&D event last night using Hit Point Press Floral Dragon RPG, and we had such a great time! For set up, I wanted to decorate the table with flowers to go with the theme, so I got with All Occasions Events & Floral, LLC asking if they'd like to put something together for a display piece. They decided to make up bouquets to match the dragons, and I love the detail of the Dandelion Dragon holding the letter to be delivered!

To add more, I also used one of Aromas of Adventure reed diffusers called "Open Fields" to give the fragrance of our location when meeting up with the Peony Dragon. As for the map, Roll & Play Press's grid paper was perfect for what I needed when encountering a couple other creatures on the route to the Peony Dragon field.
