[Chorus] Raise your dice and sing tonight, beneath the tavern's glow, D-N-D forevermore, the greatest game we know. From level one to epic heights, through dragon, lich, and flame, We'll chase experience and loot, and carve our names in fame! [VERSE 1] BARBARIAN! I was born beyond the walls where winter storms reside, A greataxe on my shoulder and a fury deep inside. When battle calls I lose myself, let all restraint be gone, The rage begins, the blood runs hot, and every foe is drawn. [VERSE 2] BARD! I strum a tune of courage while the goblins start to flee, A song can heal a wounded friend or shape a destiny. With stories, spells, and silver tongue I wander far and wide, No lock too strange, no court too grand, with music as my guide. [VERSE 3] CLERIC! I bear the holy symbol and the blessings of my creed, Turning back the restless dead whenever friends are in need. Divine power fills my veins, my faith becomes my shield, And miracles descend from heaven upon the battlefield. [VERSE 4] DRUID! The forests know my secret name, the rivers hear me pray, I call the storm and shifting moon to light the hidden way. As wolf or bear I stalk the wild, with nature at my side, And every ancient oak and beast becomes my steadfast guide. [VERSE 5] FIGHTER! No mystery surrounds my art, no pact or sacred rite, Just countless years of training hard and mastering the fight. A weapon for each challenge and a feat for every plan, When dragons threaten kingdoms, I'm the first to take a stand. [VERSE 6] MONK! My fists are forged through discipline, my spirit honed like steel, I strike before the eye can track, too swift for foes to feel. Across the walls and through the air, my focused mind is free, The path of perfect mastery is the world to me. [VERSE 7] PALADIN! I ride beneath a shining banner, sworn to truth and law, My blade is bright with righteousness, inspiring hope and awe. Against the fiends and tyrants dark I make my noble stand, With sacred mount and holy might to cleanse the wounded land. [VERSE 8] RANGER! The wilderness has taught me well the tracks that others miss, I know the habits of my prey and where the danger is. With bow in hand and faithful friend beside me on the trail, I hunt the monsters of the world and never seem to fail. [VERSE 9] ROGUE! The shadows are my workshop and the darkness is my stage, A hidden blade, a careful step, a lockpick and a page. One well-placed strike can end a fight before it has begun, While others charge the front lines, I've already won. [VERSE 10] SORCERER! No dusty tome instructed me, no mentor showed the way, The magic burns within my blood and grows with every day. A dragon's spark may fuel my soul, arcane and untamed, I shape reality itself through power unconstrained. [VERSE 11] WIZARD! My spellbook weighs a hundred pounds with secrets yet unknown, I've spent my nights by candlelight while other men have gone. Prepared for every circumstance with pages filled with lore, For every problem in the world, I've got a spell—or four. [Bridge] Attack of opportunity! The rules debates begin! The grapple chart consumes an hour, but somehow that's a win. Prestige classes call our names, templates tempt us all, And somewhere in the distance, dice are bouncing down the hall. Through prestige paths and magic gear, through every dungeon crawl, The memories we forged together are the greatest loot of all. [Outro] So here's to every character sheet covered up with notes, To natural twenties loudly cheered and critical hit quotes. The campaign may eventually end, as all adventures do, But D-N-D lives on each time we gather with the crew.
