The Duffer Brothers infused their love for DnD into StrangerThings and the show is better for it. Here's how the game has enhanced the sci-fi series:
Like many, I spent a significant portion of the last two years finding new hobbies and interests to delve into and find joy in as we all searched for the light in a world increasingly shrouded in darkness. Enter: Dungeons and Dragons . The fantasy role-playing game first hit the scene in the 1970s and rose to popularity among nerds in the 1980s, as any Stranger Things fan may already know.
To be a Dungeon Master, you have to be an excellent storyteller — world-building, character creation, and crafting narrative arcs for your players are all your responsibility. These are all things that apply quite perfectly to writing television, making the Duffers essentially the Dungeon Masters of Stranger Things. Then you've got the adventuring party: Will , Mike , Lucas , Dustin , Eleven , Max , Joyce , Hopper , Nancy , Jonathan , Steve , and Robin .
The Demogorgon, Shadow Monster, Mind Flayer, and now Vecna all get their names — and some of their skills — from the popular tabletop game. Stranger Things takes the basics of these DnD monsters and fleshes them into actual threats against our heroes, and the town of Hawkins, in a way that fits the show's mystery and narrative. Each year the villains become more powerful from the demogorgon, also known in DnD as the Prince of Demons, to this year's terrifying Vecna.
