Calling all tabletop role-playing game lovers! Have we got a post for you! Dungeons and Dragon gamers are a group near and dear to my heart, and for that reason, we at sweetgiftlists.com would like to introduce you to Dungeons and Dragons gifts.
What is Dungeons and Dragons?
It is a tabletop fantasy role-playing game, where together with friends you pretend play (AKA Role Play) your characters. You have make believe adventures about swords and sorcery. D&D is a turn-based game where the dice determine your fate.
I’ve been playing D&D for over thirty years, off and on, so believe it or not, I have a little experience with the tabletop gaming world. It’s my favorite hobby. People are always asking what I like but when I explain it to them they have no idea what I am talking about so I decided to put this list together to help them and my fellow Dungeons and Dragons enthusiasts out.
For those who don’t know, DND (or D&D), is the shorthand for Dungeons and Dragons.
Without further ado, here are some gift ideas for d&d players.

Tabletop Dice
For the novice tabletop gamer, you can never have too many dice. Dice are critical to the game. In tabletop gaming, you roll dice to show how well your player character does whatever task they are doing. This could be for checking perception, hitting a monster, or casting a spell. The reasons for the dice roll are limitless, but the higher the roll the better you do your task.
Tabletop gaming has dice that you can’t get at the local gas station.
The dice sides can be numbered from one hundred, twenty, twelve, ten, eight, six, and four.

For the Dungeon Master (DM)
Whether you are showing off your own DM powers or buying gifts for your dungeon master, we have a few specialized items, books, and gear for the Game Master. The Game Master or GM or DM (Dungeon Master) is a term for the person who is narrating the game. They are usually behind the screen and play the NPCs, Monster, and that crazy narrator that helps the players flesh out the world they are adventuring in.
Not every player becomes a Game Master, but for those that do they would need even more dice, DM screens (screens that block the DM’s movements and materials from the players), even more books like the monster manuals, and a plethora of other things.

Want to Play Online?
For those that have a hankering for gaming during this pandemic and have not been able to get with a group for some tabletop action, I would like to recommend roll20.net.
The site has the ability to link your character from www.dndbeyond.com allowing a fairly seamless connection to allow you to play and roll straight from your phone or computer.
For those that don’t have a group already you can search for a group to play with on roll20.net. There are many groups that play over the net and use applications like discord. You can create characters and play on your phone.
Heck, join me at the Guild of the Phoenix on discord for live play. Watch this video on youtube or below!
Much to my wife’s dismay I play regularly on one of the the discord game sites using my phone and headset to allow me to voice as well as text while gaming.

Alpha,
OMG, ok I need that white board battle grid – either one will be fine! I’ll have to grab something for everyone else too though. These are all great ideas for the next time my crew is in the area.
Sean
Don’t forget you can play online!
Hi Brianna,
I love your site!
I haven’t played D&D since I was in college but the the dice are spectacular and the painted miniatures are really cool! It makes me want to get back into playing. I’ll have to find some local groups and give it another go.
Frank
Well if you are interested you can play online for now! Because of the covid many groups have moved to an online space!
Can you believe I have never played Dungeons and Dragons? I have heard so much about it and everyone I know who plays it just loves it. I have no idea why I haven’t played it yet. I would like to try the table top version.
I love the dragon notebooks, they would make a great gift!
I don’t play D&D, but I know people who do play it. These are some great gift ideas, I think anyone who is a serious player, would enjoy a set of dice. And those journals look totally awesome as well. Maybe the battle grid game maps would be something they don’t have either. You have given me plenty of ideas for sure. Thank you.
Hi! Thanks for stopping by! I am not a tabletop gamer either but as you can clearly see hubby (alphawolf) is! He is quite proud of this list too!
