TTRPGs have been around for decades, but they were seeing a decline in play in recent years until shows such as Stranger Things came along, showing several of the main characters playing D&D. One person, known as the Dungeon Master, or Game Master (DM or GM respectively), leads a group of Players through the adventure by describing the world to them, and having the players describe their actions-and then translating those actions into events that take place in the world. There are tons of different worlds that D&D (and other tabletop adventures) take place in, but no single world contains more adventures than the world known as The Forgotten Realms. D&D, which is on its 5th Edition presently, is a system from Wizards of the Coast (WotC). Basically, it is a rules system which allows a group of friends (or soon-to-be-friends) to get together and tell stories together and "make believe" in a structured and organized way. Dungeons and Dragons, also known as D&D or DND, is a rule system for Table Top Role Playing Games or TTRPGs. Unless you've been living under a rock for the last few years, you're probably aware of Dungeons and Dragons-but you may not be entirely sure what Dungeons and Dragons actually IS.
