D and D tas they call itl is a role-playing fantasy based on medieval times and the work of J.Fi.Fl Tolkien. lt includes among other things, magic, weapons, deities, and every imaginable mon- ster, from a relatively harmless rat to the Queen of Dragons. Each player rolls a set of three six-sided dice to determine which character he will become, what characteristics he will have, and what class he will belong to. These classes are Magic-user, who needs a great deal of intelli- gence, Cleric, who is a magical priest who must be very wise, Fighter, the strongest class, and the dexterous Thief. The game begins when the charac- ters go through a Dungeon created by the Dungeon Master, who is usu- ally the most experienced of the play- ers. One of the characters maps this Dungeon on graph paper as they explore it, so that they will be able to visualize the positions of the different rooms. In these cubicles are found the monsters who must either be killed or will kill the characters. Play- ers gain points by showing prowess in destroying these monsters and by gaining experience in the process. With luck and skill, the players will eventually find the treasure that is hidden within this imaginary world. Dungeon Master Doug Gray explains, The idea is to make the game as realistic as possible without destroying the fantasy. l play it because it leaves room for my cre- ativity, and has no difinite bounds to it. lt is not unusual to find these stu- dents playing for 10 to 12 hours at a sitting. After a long week at school, it is relaxing to slip into another world altogether. It's the feeling you get when you mutilate Ken Litzau's char- acter, says Forrest Netzel. ii ffm ' - ee-i..i.t.-1-azz , 1 - -.misss , . ,A , .,.,.,. 4 w QM. ztaeg- Q A k,,15Lx?'m ,Mmm K S if ,, j .
