Description
Description
Grab a sword and roll for initiative--a queer DnD adventure is about to begin.
Since its inception decades ago, the fantasy roleplaying game Dungeons & Dragons has offered an escape from the real world, the chance to enter distant realms, to walk in new shoes, and be part of immersive, imaginative tales as they unfold. For its LGBTQ+ players, it is also a vessel for exploration, joy, and self-discovery.
Journey on, adventurer, as Dungeon Master Thom James Carter invites you into DnD's exciting queer and utopian possibilities. Traverse its history and contemporary evolution, discover stories from queer players and the homebrewers making it their own, and unlock DnD's power to explore and examine identity--how people want to lead their lives in real and imagined worlds alike.
