All you need to run a Dungeons & Dragons game is your imagination, some dice, and this book. The Dungeon Master’s Guide teaches you how to how to run D&D adventures for your players— how to invent monsters for them to fight, mysteries for them to solve, and fantasy worlds for them to explore. “[The Dungeon Master’s Guide is] the one book to rule them all, the most comprehensive and powerful set of resources needed to run a game of D&D. . .” —Charlie Hall, P “D&D acolytes are everywhere...Tech workers from Silicon Valley to Brooklyn have long-running campaigns, and the showrunners and the novelist behind ‘Game of Thrones’ have all been Dungeon Masters.”—Neima Jahromi, The New Yorker • The Dungeon Master’s Guide is one of the three main Dungeons & Dragons books, along with the Player’s Handbook and Monster Manual. It’s a reference used by the Dungeon Master (the game’s narrator) to create adventures—to run Dungeons & Dragons games and fill them with characters and stories. • The Dungeon Master’s Guide (DMG) is full of tools to help you immerse players in the game. What’s the demon lord’s secret weakness? Are the orcish invaders a criminal enterprise, or traitorous allies? Dozens of tables throughout the book help inspire your decisions and keep the game flowing smoothly. • In the Dungeon Master’s Guide (DMG), even the tables tell tales. A legendary sword takes five decades to craft. Who created it, and why? A tavern-crawling gnome has an eye twitch. How did she get it, and when? In every detail is an architecture for narrative—and the Dungeon Master’s Guide has all the tools you need to flesh it out with ease. • In Dungeons & Dragons, you and your friends coauthor your own legend. Guided by a Dungeon Master, you create characters and play their roles in a story, rolling dice and navigating maps as you unfold a tale as limitless as your imagination. • Dungeons & Dragons is the world’s greatest roleplaying game. Created in 1974, D&D transformed gaming culture by blending traditional fantasy with miniatures and wargaming. ## Features - Learn how to run a thrilling game of Dungeons & Dragons (5th edition) - Magic items—a treasure trove of items for your players to discover - Advice for creating your own world, monsters, spells, and magic items - Guide to balancing encounters—make combat as easy or deadly as you want it to be - A Dungeon-Masters-only tour of each plane of the D&D multiverse—from the Feywild to the Shadowfell - 1 of 3 D&D Core Rulebooks—the Player’s Handbook (rules for playing the game), the Dungeon Master’s Guide (how to run the game), and Monster Manual (creatures to encounter in your game) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0786965622 | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Battery Types | Rechargeable lithium-ion battery | | Best Sellers Rank | #341,063 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #11,802 in Games & Quizzes (Books) #13,229 in Board Games | | Brand | Dungeons & Dragons | | Character | monster | | Colour | dark and purple | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 30,205 Reviews | | Educational Objective | Imagination Development, Role Play | | Global Trade Identification Number | 09780786965625 | | Importer Contact Information | Atlantic Publishers and Distributors (P) Ltd., 7/22, Ansari Road, Darya Ganj, New Delhi - 110002 INDIA, Email – customercare@atlanticbooks.com, Ph – 011-47320500 | | Included Components | Dice | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 21.6 x 2.2 x 28.4 Centimeters | | Item Type Name | Book | | Item Weight | 1.11 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Wizards of the Coast | | Manufacturer Part Number | 786965622 | | Material | Paper | | Maximum Recommended age | 1188 | | Model Number | A92190000 | | Number of Batteries | 1 Lithium Ion batteries required.
