Dungeons and Dragons is a role-playing game. Each player becomes a character within the game, and tells the referee, or Dungeon Master, what they will do. There are a number of different classes, such as wizards, fighters, thiefs, and priests, or clerics. The game is played with dice containing many different numbers. Dice are usually referred to by d-number of sides, i.e. d6 is a six sided die, d20 is a twenty sided die.
