Illustration: Princesses Playing DnD

Disney Princesses Playing Dungeons & Dragons


The artist did a great job capturing the different princesses’ personalities. I think Snow White is an interesting choice as Dungeon master, because she obviously has the most experience moderating arguments, after living with the Seven Dwarfs. I like to imagine that she refused to play the Dwarven race because of the racist stereotypes propagated by D&D, but that she was afraid that if she ever played as any race but Dwarf, all her best friends would be terribly affronted. To escape the moral dilemma, she took on Dungeon Master duties.
