The world's most popular pen & paper Role Playing Game (RPG). Created in 1974 by E. Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson, Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) combines role-playing with turn-based tactical combat. In a D&D game, one player is the "dungeon master" (DM) and the rest of the players are "player characters" (PCs). The PCs assume the role of adventurers (using fantasy archaetypes such as elves, wizards, halflings, barbarians, etc) while the DM creates challenges for the PCs to overcome (such as monsters and traps).
Over the years, the D&D game has been revised and published in multiple editions. The rights to Dungeons & Dragons are currently owned by Wizards of the Coast (creators of Magic: The Gathering) and Hasbro.
"We played Dungeons & Dragons for three hours. Then I was slain by an elf."

A game in which a group of people come together and pretend they are a 'character' they made on a piece of paper. Occasionally 'models' can be used, but they are approx. 2 inches tall running around doing nothing on a 'grid.' This game is suitable for those with extreme imaginations, or those too lazy to play videogames.
Nerd fights tend to brake out over stats, so use caution.
This game, when played properly, or with a group of friends, can prove rather fun.
I play Dungeons and Dragons so I can escape reality.

The one qualifier of being a total dork ass. If you are unsure if someone is a total nerd, just ask if they play this game.
Be weary, the ash troll has a level 8 magic power dagger!

Dungeons and Dragons is a game where the socially intelligent players should never come out of the closet and hide all evidence of this virgin prolonging addiction.
