“	New to the world of Dungeons & Dragons? Whether you’re asking “What is D&D?” because you love Stranger Things, fought in an immersive video game, played a D&D board game, or read any of the novels written by its fantasy authors, welcome to the world’s greatest roleplaying game! At its heart, D&D is a game that focuses on storytelling. The dice just help you along. Everything is your decision, from what you look like, to how you act, to what happens next. Dungeons & Dragons is about having fun with your friends. Together you build a shared narrative, as you guide your heroes through quests for treasure, battle with deadly foes, engage in courtly intrigue, enact daring rescues and much more. Whether you want to join a pirate gang that loves combat, revel in the exploration of hidden jungle ruins, or enjoy the social interaction of a political plot is entirely up to you. The collective creativity in your D&D game builds stories that you’ll tell again and again—ranging from the stuff of legend to absurd incidents that’ll make you laugh years later. Have fun and remember the golden rule—never split the party!	„
	~ What is D&D?

Background

Dungeons and Dragons, alternatively Dungeons & Dragons (abbreviated DND or D&D), is a fantasy tabletop roleplaying game, designed by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, then published TSR in 1974, and then later being owned by Wizards of the Coast (and thus Hasbro as a whole) in 1997. It is known to be one of the most famous RPGs of all time, having a massive influence on video games.

The gameplay of Dungeons and Dragons consists of a Dungeon Master (alternatively called "Game Master") and party of usually five people, though there is technically no limit.

Gods

• Demigods are 2-C for being able to create universes

• Lesser Deities are At least Low 2-B, possibly High 2-B for being superior Archdevil Asmodeus and could be comparable to Demon Lords who have reached the Lesser Deity status, such as Demogorgon.
  • Asmodeus can control the Nine-Hells, which are repeatedly stated to be infinite in size
  • Demogorgon shook the entire abyss, which is infinite in size and holds infinite layers within itself, with each layer being its own reality and universe.

• Intermediate Deities are High 2-B for being superior to all Lesser Deities, including Demogorgon

• Greater Gods are At least High 2-B for being superior to Intermediate Deities, along with having feats on this scale.
  • Zeus, alongside his siblings, defeated the titans, who embody fundemental concepts of the multiverse
  • Mystra's death caused catastrophe across the multiverse, progressing it from 3rd Edition to 4th. She also embodies the Weave, the supply of magic in the multiverse
  • Asmodeus pushed the Abyss to a different section of the multiverse.

• Overdeities are 2-A for transcending all other gods
  • Ao exists beyond the bounds of deities in all ways, the same way teachers aren't bound to the grades of their students. He is beyond the concept of alignment, something all deities are bound by.
  • Vecna, who was going to become stronger than Ao, was going to ascend beyond godhood and the material planes altogether

Terms

• Dungeon Master: The narrator of the game, telling the story of the events and is in charge of the campaign. They control all NPCs, effectively being in charge of all things that are not in control of the Party.

• Party Members: Each party member creates their own character, with a lot options to choose from. There are plenty of races to make your character (ex. Humans, Dwarfs, Dragonborn, Half-Elves, Tieflings, Halflings, Gnomes, and many more), as well 13 classes: Barbarian, Bard, Cleric, Druid, Fighter, Monk, Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard, and Artificer. Despite there only being 13, each class has "sub-classes", as well as an option for "multi-classing" at higher levels.
