Abstract: d20 is a Discord bot that allows communities to play governance games in an LLM-mediated environment. Groups can come together to embark on a governance “quest”, where they make lightweight decisions about the their group and experience varied mechanisms of decision-making. d20 moderates the group's governance through different "culture modules" - playfully modifying users' messages to cultivate diverse interaction environments for participants.

The team working on this project will give a presentation on the background of the project, give an overview of development process, conduct a short interactive demo, and explore possible research questions the project could support.
