Earlier this year, Wizards of the Coast announced that the next iteration of the Dungeons & Dragons tabletop roleplaying game is currently underway. As a part of this monumental undertaking, legions of fans around the world have been invited to participate in an massive, public playtest—the first of its kind for D&D—and to make gaming history as they help shape the future of Dungeons & Dragons. The “D&D Next” public playtest began in May and there’s still the opportunity for even more people to get involved.
And that’s where you come in.

Your mission
Create a video (60 seconds or less) that will get D&D fans excited about being a part of the D&D Next Playtest. How you do that is entirely up to you. You could show us an epic film of classic heroism or a claymation reenactment of critical failures. Maybe it’s a recruitment video for your group or a Top Ten list of things you’ve learned from the playtest. Whether it’s a classic D&D truism (like why you never split the party ) or just an awesome/hilarious/cool episode taken straight from your imagination, show the world what they’re missing.
Most importantly, have fun.
