The tabletop role-playing game, first published in 1974, allows an estimated 64 million fans worldwide to embark on fantasy adventures.
Royal Mail has unveiled a set of 14 stamps featuring monsters and characters from Dungeons & Dragons to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the fantasy game’s release.
Shining an ultraviolet light over the eight pictures of monsters will reveal the D&D logo on four of the stamps and a graphic related to the monster on the other four.David Gold, director of external affairs and policy at Royal Mail, said: “For fifty years, Dungeons & Dragons has enabled millions of fans across the world to enjoy using their imaginations and immersing themselves in a magical world.
A video game set in its universe, Baldur’s Gate 3, was also published last year and won five Bafta Game Awards in April. D&D’s fantasy world and monsters have influenced fantasy tropes in film, television and video games to this day Mr Reynolds, a long-time fantasy artist, said it was a “massive honour” to create the set’s artwork and have “the opportunity to see my artwork on a stamp”.
