Dungeons and dragons - what is it?

A popular pen and paper game, D&D has been a major influence on the video game industry.

Dungeons and Dragons is usually played with three or more people, but it is possible for the game to be played with only 2 players. One of the players is the Dungeon Master, or DM. The DM is responsible with describing what is going on in the game world to the players, and then the players act accordingly. The DM is also the final arbiter of the rules, and his/her dominion over the game that s/he is running is absolute. The rolling of polyhedral dice is used to determine many of the outcomes of the actions of the player.

Players take on the role of one of several classes, and can choose to play as one of several races. The main races are Tolkienesque, such as Elves, Orcs, Humans, and Dwarves, but many other interesting races are also present. Planetouched Elemental characters, half dragons, and vampires are all playable, among others.

The stereotypical D&D player is a socially maladjusted loner or loser, who is also a virgin. The stereotype often has pasty skin and severe acne, a speech impediment, and braces.

I, however, have yet to encounter any D&D player that fits this criteria. Therefore, whoever created the D&D stereotype is either a dipshit, or a fucktard.

Nearly all of the people that I know who play D&D are easygoing, laid back, and chilled out. They are aware of the fact that playing D&D isn't necessarily "cool", but they find it enjoyable and think everyone else who judges them for it should fuck off.

Dumbass : You play Dungeons and Dragons...? HAHA HAVE FUN WITH YOUR +1 SWORD AND ELF YOU FAGGOT.

D&D Player : Actually, I have a +3 Vorpal Greatsword. Also, you're a gigantic douche, shut the fuck up and go wack off to Madden or something.

Dungeons and dragons - what does it mean?


Dungeons and Dragons is a game where the socially intelligent players should never come out of the closet and hide all evidence of this virgin prolonging addiction.

Keep it on the DL and get some outdoor hobbies so you don't rot in your grandma's basement without ever meeting a girl.

DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS IN THE CLOSET PLAYERS CAUGHT IN THE ACT! MAN THEY'RE REALLY KEEPING IT GAMER!

Dungeon Master: "The goblins spot you! Roll for initiative!
Player: "Oh boy, a 20 and a 1!"

KNOCK KNOCK

"Oh shit! THe only girls I know are here! Quick! Shove it in the closet!

Ladies: "What were you guys doing in the closet? Why don't you guys just admit your gay."

Dungeons and dragons

A game in which a group of people come together and pretend they are a 'character' they made on a piece of paper. Occasionally 'models' can be used, but they are approx. 2 inches tall running around doing nothing on a 'grid.' This game is suitable for those with extreme imaginations, or those too lazy to play videogames.

Nerd fights tend to brake out over stats, so use caution.

This game, when played properly, or with a group of friends, can prove rather fun.

I play Dungeons and Dragons so I can escape reality.

Dungeons and dragons

The world's most popular pen & paper Role Playing Game (RPG). Created in 1974 by E. Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) combines role-playing with turn-based tactical combat. In a D&D game, one player is the "dungeon master" (DM) and the rest of the players are "player characters" (PCs). The PCs assume the role of adventurers (using fantasy archaetypes such as elves, wizards, halflings, barbarians, etc) while the DM creates challenges for the PCs to overcome (such as monsters and traps).

Over the years, the D&D game has been revised and published in multiple editions. The rights to Dungeons & Dragons are currently owned by Wizards of the Coast (creators of Magic: The Gathering) and Hasbro.

"We played Dungeons & Dragons for three hours. Then I was slain by an elf."

-Homer Simpson
