Spooky season is officially over… but only if you want it to be. Every season is spooky season if you’re a DnD player. While the rest of the plebians only allow themselves one day a year to indulge in the mystical and the magical, pretend to be otherworldly creatures, and give themselves over to the …

An essential part of DnD is improv. You have to think on your feet, respond to your teammates, and come together to build something. If you’ve ever done improv comedy or jazz or… devised theatre, you’d probably be pretty well suited for Dungeons and Dragons. It’s like all of those things, plus dragons.  But the …

Like many things, DnD is as good as what you put into it. Like with therapy, if you’re going to be purposefully withholding and commit to not applying or listening to anything your therapist tells you, then you’re probably not going to get that much out of it. DnD is only as good as what …

Would that I were a warlock. Life would be so much more interesting. Instead of sitting at a desk all day waiting for lunch to come, I would be practicing my spells and growing a long white beard. So much more enriching. While I’m on the subject, why do wizards and warlocks always have long …

DnD is not all just fun and games. Oh wait, it is. That’s the whole point. There aren’t enough things in life that we do purely for fun. Eating cookies, sure. Watching the Great British Bake Off? Also that. But so often we do things because we think they’re good for us, or because we …

Everyone needs a good dungeon master in their life. It’s like having a best friend who is also a party planner and also your therapist. You show up to the hang just with your knowledge, vibes, and willingness to have a good time, and the dungeon master does the rest. But the demand exceeds the …

Finding the right Dungeon Master is like finding the right therapist. They need to understand your quirks and pathologies, know what challenges you, and know what calms you down. Because, in many ways, a DM is like a therapist. They guide you through a journey full of obstacles (much like life with its many opps). …

There’s nothing like being knee-deep in some spells with your homies. It makes you feel like one powerful wizard. That’s a fun thing about DnD, once you become fluent in the spells and cantrips, you start to feel like an actual wizard. Your knowledge and know-how are affecting the game in supernatural ways. If only …

Unless you’re an actor, you don’t get very many chances in this life to pretend to be something you’re not (outside of the regular mask-wearing of being a person in so-called polite society). We get to do it on Halloween, in improv class, or if our significant other is feeling particularly freaky one night. We …

Why is it that the best things in life are often decried as «nerdy?» It happens with all the fun things, like playing video games, collecting records, reading a ton, building robots, or playing Dungeons and Dragons. I have a pet theory that the people who say these things are nerdy are just jealous that …
