Dimension 20’s newest season celebrates Pride Month with Dungeons and Drag Queens

Let’s slay.

The latest season of Dimension 20, the tabletop roleplaying anthology show, will feature a party of Drag Queens as its players.

Called Dungeons and Drag Queens – a name shared by a live show in Seattle, whose creators have given Dimension 20 their blessing to use it – the upcoming season will see a cast of Drag Queens playing the tabletop RPG Dungeons & Dragons as the Questing Queens.

Revealed via a teaser trailer, Dungeons and Drag Queens will see regular Dimension 20 dungeon master Brennan Lee Mulligan taking the role of DM for the Queens, with the season taking place in its own unique setting and appearing the focus on the characters’ quest to gain the favour of the goddess of death, in exchange for a boon.

The cast of Dungeons and Drag Queens includes Monét X Change (he/him/she/her) as Troyánn (she/her), a merfolk assassin who has been tasked with carrying out a number of hits, Alaska Thunderfuck (she/her) as Princess (she/her), an eight-foot-tall orc barbarian, Bob the Dragqueen (he/she) as Gertrude (she/her), a powerful and introverted sorceress, and lastly Jujubee (she/her) as Twyla (she/her), a fae soldier and ranger.

Illustrations for the characters have been included in a Twitter thread about the fantasy TRPG season, with the artwork being done by Savana @danyelss, a character designer and drag queen.
