Gaming, for long, has been talked about in terms of its negative effects. And even though the word 'game' itself originates from the feeling of amusement, the angle of how the activity can improve storytelling is largely ignored. It is with this idea that Panic Not!, a city-based initiative comprising storytellers, gamers, artists and creators, decided to foster a community of like-minded individuals and explore the world of table-top role play games (RPG).

Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), designed by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson and introduced in 1974, has grown to become one of the world's most popular games by merging war games with fantasy. And this Sunday, at a Khar venue, Panic Not! is organising a convention where attendees will not only engage with D&D but will also be introduced to it, in light of their one-year anniversary.
