I wrote this song for my boyfriend who introduced me to Dungeon’s and Dragons. I remember the first time he tried to get my to play, I imagined us morphing into overweight pimple faced nerds whose only contact with the world outside of our mother’s basements was going to the park on weekends dressed in homemade suits of armor to face off against other battlenerds in a pointless contest in which literally everyone winds up a loser. However, I decided not to be close minded about it, and gave it a try. The result was one part improv club, one part creative writing and one part board game night. Honestly, I loved it through and through. His boundless enthusiasm about the whole thing was infectious, and being a creative writer, I ate up the idea of inviting your friends over to play out story lines. Before I knew it I was dabbling in Dungeon Mastering, ruling at rolling, and legitimately not caring how silly it sounded to people who ‘didn’t get it’. If you have an ounce of imagination, and a secret desire to speak with a ridiculous accent (optional) you might actually like it. In fact, you might just find yourself falling in love with DnD… or in as my case, your DM.
This recording is quite simply one take that I recorded using my iPhone so it’s not exactly er, professional, but thats hardly the point of such a silly song anyway. Hope you enjoy it!
