The respected and popular designer, Monte Cook, unexpectedly announced he was quitting Wizards of the Coast and the D&D Next project this week. Cook’s return to the company, over a year ago, was one of the first signs that the next generation of the roleplaying game was on the way. Cook blames a difference of […]
D&D TTRPG news and articles
Dungeons & Dragons is more than a game; it's a cultural titan and the gateway to fantasy adventure for millions worldwide. At its heart, D&D is a collaborative storytelling experience. Players create unique heroes, from mighty barbarians to wise wizards, and embark on perilous quests in a world brought to life by the Dungeon Master. The rules provide structure, but the real magic comes from the shared imagination of the group. Every roll of the dice and every player decision shapes a unique narrative, making each campaign a truly personal epic forged in creativity and chance.
The game’s enduring appeal lies in its powerful social core. In an age of digital screens, D&D brings people together to cooperate, solve problems, and build legends face to face. This spirit has fuelled its explosive resurgence in pop culture, introducing the magic of tabletop roleplaying games to a new generation. Yet for all its grand legacy, D&D remains wonderfully accessible. All it takes is a set of dice, a few friends, and a spark of imagination to unlock infinite worlds of adventure. It is the ultimate engine for heroic storytelling.

Lead Rules Editor Jeremy Crawford and D&D Senior Manager Mike Mearls held a “Future of D&D panel” at PAX East. They start by pointing out how much video gaming as grown since D&D was born and how some players now enter the roleplaying world these days via the digital front.

Alignment Chart: Game of Thrones edition
Alignment charts seem to be an evergreen source of discussion among D&D savvy geeks. Here’s one for Game of Thrones. I think it’s fair to say it’s based off the HBO styling of the characters as, in this blogger’s opinion, Varys seems a little kinder in the show in the book and Sansa less annoying. […]
Existential Crisis D&D is not DnD Next
I’m pleased to say that this blogger’s gaming groups have always talked through any change of game mechanics or change of game before the gamers turn up. In this video, I think that’s Jon’s biggest mistake. Shouldn’t ambush the players like this. This video has been out for a few days. Thankfully, in that time […]

Superheroes on the D&D alignment chart
I think this superhero and villain alignment chart is particularly good. It takes the old school Dungeons and Dragons alignment scale and uses heroes and villains to populate it. The rest is that old D&D geeks get a kick out of the retro chic and the newer native geeks get an easy way to see […]
