So my mom is finally interested in dnd, I've never been more overjoyed, but the thing I like most about it is how it happened.

So I regularly rewatch Burrows end, it's one of the best DND anything I've ever watched or listened to. I absolutely love it, and one of the things I love most about it is how much of the cast are POC. I genuinely feel like their lived experiences deepened the family dynamics of the stoats in a lot of ways and was just really relatable to me, and apparently to my mother.

The fact that there were two black women in the room, and a black woman at the helm, immediately caught her attention. She literally sat down to watch because Rashawn's hair reminded her of me and she wanted to know more about her. I completely restarted the entire series and we binged the entire thing over the course of a week and at the end of she said she didn't realise that dnd could be a vehicle to tell stories so heartfelt. Or that there were so many of us(POC and especially black people) in the ttrpg community, it really kind of opened her eyes to what a roleplaying game like dnd can be and now she's really into it.

And now she's having me draft up a supernatural themed one shot for her, I'm planning on running it for her birthday, and I'm just really glad this happened. I'm really glad that she got to see herself and feel represented in a nerdy space like this, it's really beautiful.

This is why diversity and representation is so important, it really does open doors that were, or at least feel, previously closed. Like the only reason I even got into dnd is because I watched the premier of Burrows end on YouTube, watching Aabria DM genuinely felt life changing, it was everything to me and it still is.

I want to thank the people of colour in the ttrpg space, your presence and love of the game is so important. It is so special and so beautiful, and I love you all. Y'all are everything to me and I'm really grateful to be one of you🩷
