A New Player’s Guide To Alignment in Dungeons and Dragons (D&D)
The alignment system in Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) can be complicated for new players. Terms like Lawful Good and Chaotic Evil are thrown around, and what they mean isn’t exactly what you think based on the word choice. I have been playing D&D for nearly 14 years now, and the way that the terminology has evolved over time has also helped to change the way that we think about these alignments as a whole. Evil and Good aren’t necessarily as black and white as they used to be in the days of AD&D.

How to Start Playing Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) 5e
If you know nothing at all about Dungeons and Dragons (referred to as D&D from here on), then I always suggest starting by watching some liveplay videos or streams. Many of these have professional level production value and props, so be sure not to get hooked into expecting this same level from your own Dungeon Master (DM). Look up Critical Role, Dimension 20 or High Rollers on Youtube for the best streams online right now.

5 Backstory Ideas for Your Wizard in Dungeons and Dragons (D&D)
Wizards are the book learners of D&D. Their magic comes from endless study, whether that be at the hands of a mentor, in a military academy or the halls of a great wizarding school. Wizards aren’t born inherently being able to cast spells, though many might have some slightly adeptness for magic in general. Instead, they must study. Wizards may not be as spontaneous as sorcerers or bards, but they make up for it in terms of pure versatility. When it comes to the sheer amount of magic a character can learn, few can compete with the skill of a wizard. Unfortunately, wizards have low HP and AC, so while they have extreme power, it comes at the cost of being weak physically, and they need to be protected to shine. Now it’s time to come up with a few quick backstory ideas to help bring your character to life. Here are five intriguing ideas to use in your game, or to build off of to create a unique character you’ll love to play.
