...about D&D

D&D is an unwholesome practice carried out by enthusiasts in dungeons. It is thought to have been invented by the Marquis de Gygax in the 1770s. Although it has become more widespread in recent years, it is still rare for anyone to publicly admit their involvement in the D&D "scene". Participants are often bizarrely dressed and fall into two categories: the adventurers, and the dungeon master or mistress, whose job it is to make life uncomfortable for the adventurers and then curse them for being idiots. D&D is not seen as unhealthy in small doses, although more extreme enthusiasts may find it difficult to form normal relationships. Many hardcore participants spend a large amount of money on D&D paraphenalia, including books, equipment and diet Coke.
