What If World - Stories for Kids

Can Ignis the Fire Sorcerer, Scuggy the Armadillo Magineer, Claude the Leafbat Sidekick, and the painted superhero known as Knight Wing rescue the unicorns from the frozen portal?

Lessons include: When rivals work together, they can do amazing things; everyone has different specialties, even if they share similar interests!

This week, we play G&G with three players: actor and tutor Dante Balletti, the lead voice actor for the Dorktales Storytime Podcast, Jonathan Cormur, and the head writer for Dorktales, Molly Murphy!

Dante tutors middle and high school students on Zoom for test prep and academic support. Grown-ups can email danteabelletti@gmail.com to learn more!

Molly Murphy is the head writer for Dorktales and you can reach them for all your writing needs at: mkmurphycreative@gmail.com

This story is part of a Guilds & Goblins adventure, where What If World guests play an original tabletop RPG for kids and families. Real-life dice rolls, usually with a 20-sided die, help us tell the story, along with your questions! Look for G&G or Cryptid Kids episodes if you want to hear more.
