Barbie and Dungeons & Dragons may seem like an unlikely pairing, but Barbie’s versatility makes it easy to imagine her slaying dragons. Barbie embodies various Dungeons & Dragons classes, showcasing her love for everything and her natural talent for rolling critical hits. She can be a Rogue with her ability to use a disguise kit, a Bard with her love for singing, and a Cleric who relies on the power of friendship. Meanwhile, Ken takes on the role of a Bard with his charm and charisma, and his classic good looks make it the perfect fit.
The latest Dungeons & Dragons story from Mattel and Warner Bros. Television Group imagines a world in which Barbie is the ultimate dungeon master. While Barbie and her friends play the game, the episode explores the real-world implications of Dungeons & Dragons’ portrayal of women. The result is a multifaceted story that not only entertains but also challenges our perceptions of gender.
Physicist Barbie takes on the role of a Life Cleric, excelling as a healer and standing up for Barbie’s ideals. Another Ken, played by Simu Liu, assumes the role of a Fighter, showcasing his physical prowess and combat skills. President Barbie, portrayed by Issa Rae, embodies the intelligence and capability of a Wizard, with her charisma being a natural trait.
Alan, Ken’s friend, is an oddity. While he has the appearance of a Bard, he might be an unbalanced Bard subclass, awkwardly fitting into the campaign. Gymnast Barbie surprises as a Monk, rejecting the stealthy Rogue stereotype and embracing her stage presence. Gloria, not a Barbie or Ken, supports Barbie in the real world and represents a Light Cleric, providing emotional healing.
The next Ken, played by Ncuti Gatwa, is also a Bard, but with a focus on knowledge and combat, possibly as a College of Lore or College of Valor Bard. Breaking news reveals that Barbie, in her lawyer persona, takes on the role of an inquisitive Rogue, using her intelligence to uncover secrets and deliver devastating blows.
Barbie proves that she can be multifaceted, juggling multiple roles and showcasing her versatility in the world of Dungeons & Dragons. You can watch the full episode, entitled ‘Barbie: Not a Hero’, here:
