Join the Virtual True Dungeon Volunteer Team for our first 2023 Virtual TD Weekend. We have FOUR DAYS of adventure planned over the holiday weekend as we run our Tomb of Terror PRELUDE Patron Event AND the first chapter of our 2023 adventure series Tomb of Terror!
Volunteer Commitment for Virtual TD
January 12th - 16th (Thursday – Monday)
Location Requirements
While this is a "virtual" event, some volunteers must physically come to Carbondale, IL. This is worked out on a case-by-case basis with each volunteer, but generally speaking all NPC actors and first-time Virtual DMs need to be physically present at or near the TD Workshop. All Golems must be in Carbondale. We are able to train some Virtual DMs remotely, so please consider that as an option if travel is not possible. Please indicate by checking the box on the next page if you are UNABLE to physically come to Carbondale.
Virtual DM Requirements
Due to the "virtual" nature of this event, ALL volunteers applying for DM positions must possess at least intermediate computer skills, have adequate internet, be familiar with the Windows operating system, and provide their own computer systems*, the specifications of which include:
The last page of this application asks for a URL that shares your system specs with us. Please visit http://specr.me and follow the instructions. You will be given a URL that shows us your specs!
*We have a limited number of "loaner" machines. Check the box on the next page if you are interested in DMing but do not have a machine that is up to spec. Note that other requirements like having at least intermediate computer skills and adequate internet still apply.
There are two levels of commitment for Virtual True Dungeon Volunteers, however preference is given to volunteers able to make a full-time commitment for ease of scheduling. Part-time volunteers who have paired up with someone to split a full-time position will be given preference over a lone part-time volunteer request. If you have paired up with another volunteer to split a full-time position, please enter this information in the "Additional Information" field of the application step 3 of 3, before hitting "Submit".
Event times for VTD 12 are as follows. Your schedule will depend on the position you are scheduled for. VTDs that wish to be placed earlier/later on the Run of Show should either place a comment in their application OR email volunteer@truedungeon.com ASAP once your application is accepted! All times listed are central (Carbondale local time).
**Not all volunteers will be needed for the Friday Patron Run. All volunteers who are scheduled for Friday will be given a higher stipend to account for the additional time commitment.
***This event is the first time that VTD has been run on a Monday. Please be sure that you have Monday availablility for this weekend before applying.
Due to the different type of event, the ONLY positions we need to fill are DMs, 2 Coaches, NPCs, and a few Admin positions (Innkeeper/Epilogue). Please keep this in mind when choosing your volunteer role of choice.
**Full Time Benefits**
Full-Time volunteers receive the benefits listed below after successfully completing all shifts. Physical items are shipped to remote volunteers after their final Sunday shift. In-person volunteers receive their physical items after their final Sunday shift.
**Full-Time Commitment**
If you are a Full-Time volunteer, you are required to volunteer during these hours:
There will be a DM playtest of the module approximately 1 week before the event. This is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday, January 5, 2023 at 6:30 pm. All VDMs are expected to participate. Our goal is to have a DM play test BEFORE the module is posted, make changes as necessary, and then have a volunteer run for any interested volunteers to participate. The volunteer run will be on Monday, January 9th at 6:00 pm.
You must be available at ALL the times listed above to be eligible for full-time status. Please do NOT make travel arrangements outside of this schedule unless you have pre-arranged an alternative schedule with TD HQ. We cannot guarantee hotel accommodations if you do not have the details arranged with TD HQ BEFORE you accept your schedule.

ANYONE interested in volunteering must fill out a volunteer application as soon as possible.

Apply before that date to have the best chance at getting the volunteer role you prefer.

However, if everyone gets their applications in early, we can send schedules out early. Please help us get scheduling done early by applying NOW.
