Long Description:
What if your worlds and stories meant something? What if the sword, the ruin, or the river weren’t just scenery, but signs pointing to the soul of your story? In this poetic and practical workshop, YouTuber and storyteller Joshua Callahan (Creator Bard) explores the art of symbolic storytelling in TTRPGs. Learn what a symbol is and why it matters, how to create your own or adapt real-world examples, and how to use them to deepen characters, shape arcs, and build immersive worlds. This workshop is for players and GMs seeking narrative tools that unlock richer emotional impact and meaning at the table. Includes a guided worksheet and a time for question and reflection. Come learn the language of myth and how to harness it to level up your next game.
