	Description Edit \| History

The first of three core rulebooks for the 4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game.

The Player's Handbook presents the official Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game rules as well as everything a player needs to create D&D characters worthy of song and legend: new character races, base classes, paragon paths, epic destinies, powers, more magic items, weapons, armor, and much more.
