Dungeons & Dragons has issued an apology for the inclusion of offensive material in the recent Spelljammer book:
The Dungeons & Dragons design studio has formally apologized for the inclusion of offensive material found in the recently released Spelljammer: Adventures in Space boxed set."We wanted to acknowledge and own the inclusion of offensive material within our recent Spelljammer: Adventures in Space content," a statement released late on Friday read."We failed you, our players and our fans, and we are truly sorry.
Earlier this week, Dungeons & Dragons quietly removed several paragraphs from the digital versions of Astral Adventurer's Guide related to the backstory for the Hadozee, one of six new playable races in the Spelljammer: Adventures in Space. This backstory claimed that a group of Hadozee were kidnapped by a wizard who visited their planet and experimented on. The wizard's intent was to sell the Hadozee as magically enhanced soldiers, but the Hadozee rose up and killed the wizard.
"Throughout the 50-year history of Dungeons & Dragons, some of the characters in the game have been monstrous and evil, using descriptions that are painfully reminiscent of how real-world groups have been and continue to be denigrated," the D&D design team noted in their statement."We understand the urgency of changing how we work to better ensure a more inclusive game.
"We are eternally grateful for the ongoing dialog with the D&D community, and we look forward to introducing new, engaging and inclusive content to D&D for generations to come," the statement ended."D&D teaches that diversity is strength, for only a diverse group of adventurers can overcome the many challenges a D&D story presents. In that spirit, we are committed to making D&D as welcome and inclusive as possible. This part of our work will never end.
