## What it is
A LaTeX template and package for typesetting documents in the visual style of Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition. It provides the color schemes, fonts, and layout conventions of the core rulebooks and works with pdfTeX, LuaTeX, and XeTeX.

## Use cases
- typeset homebrew D&D 5e content in official book style
- create a D&D campaign document with LaTeX
- format D&D stat blocks and monster entries
- produce a PDF adventure module styled like the 5e core books
- write D&D class or subclass homebrew with proper layout
- use Overleaf to collaborate on a D&D sourcebook

## When to choose
- you want documents closely matching the official 5e book look
- you already use LaTeX or Overleaf for writing
- you need cross-platform, offline typesetting of RPG material

## When to avoid
- you want a WYSIWYG editor rather than LaTeX markup
- you need pixel-perfect reproduction of official copyrighted fonts and layout
- you are typesetting for other game systems without adaptation

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: templating, documentation, pdf
- domain: gaming-tools, documentation, desktop-applications
- platform: windows, cross-platform
