Hi! So... I've Seen A Lot About DnD Over The Years. I Actually Didn't Know Such A Game Existed Until

Hi! So... I've seen a lot about DnD over the years. I actually didn't know such a game existed until I watched Stranger Things but after I saw it I can't stop seeing references to the game everywhere. I know this might not be the place to direct my question but if I wanna learn DnD then where would I go? Where I live it's gonna be impossible to find a party to play with and learn in person but I'd like to learn about it if I can from online sources.

OKAY FIRST OF ALL: WELCOME!! i love finding people who are new to dnd!!

probably the best place to start if you're completely new to dnd is the player's handbook (phb). here's a free link. it's not exactly what I'd call light reading, but it has a decent amount of information on what dnd actually is.

if you want to learn how to play, your best bit is, well, playing. iirc there are subreddits and discord servers that allow you to advertise yourself as a player. one of them is our server, where we'll also try to answer any more questions you have!!

if you're looking to make character sheets, beyond is alright for beginners, but limits access to a lot of options. i'd suggest using a google sheet template, which you can find online, or the app 5th Edition Character Creator, which can be found on the play store.

beyond also offers new player's guides to the rules, forums, and the like. it's an excellent resource for newcomers.

final note - i have access to a lot of online sourcebooks, so i'll be updating our pinned post to give you all access to them

hope this helps, anon!!

if you definitely 100% own all of the dnd 5E content after spending hundreds of dollars on it whether physically or digitally (or both!) u should use this site here as a quick n easy reference point for the content you definitely already legally own because you’re a law abiding citizen who has paid hundreds of dollars for a shittonne of books.

I’m Gonna Be (500 miles) is honestly just such a pure, solid good song. The lyrics are cute af and actually resemble a long-term committed and happy relationship and to top it all off you can scream ‘DAHDADADA’ and the top of your lungs in a pub and someone will scream it back to you.

some white writers & animators from Nickelodeon are really trying to steal the entirety of hair love by Matthew A Cherry a BLACK animator who was already working on a series for his short film with another company. Matthew has confirmed this isn’t his series and it’s making my BLOOD boil. The lack of respect for black creators is insane. It’s due to air on September 13th on nick jr. please don’t support it!

have some respect instead of losing my mind over here the internet is great and all happy to have it real educational or whatever you need it to be but the sheer AUDACITY that shows up imagine seeing something and your first instinct is how little of this can i change before i SLAP my own name on it and SPRINT AWAY INTO THE SUNSET WITHOUT LOOKING BACK wow this concept is AMAZING I would LOVE to see more of it how do I support this creator Hair Love is an EXCELLENT piece of animation Mathew A. Cherry is a BLACK ANIMATOR A FANTASTIC ONE AT THAT the lily-white people ripping off his creation DO NOT need or deserve this visible minorities in animation both as creators AND as characters are FEW AND FAR BETWEEN AND NOT REFLECTIVE OF THE AUDIENCE SEEING REPRESENTATION OF YOURSELF IN MEDIA IS CRUCIAL AND LETS NOT SETTLE FOR BACKGROUND CHARACTERS THAT DISAPPEAR OR STATIC CHARACTERS THAT ARE PURE STEREOTYPE LET HIM REPRESENT HIMSELF IN HIS OWN SERIES absolute horror show on nickelodeon's part or basic human decency
