Game designer Justice Ramin Arman has been internally promoted to the position of Game Design Director for Dungeons & Dragons. Arman announced the news yesterday over on Linkedin, and later specified what the role entails over on Discord. As Game Design Director, Arman will be responsible for directing the game design department as a whole. Previously, Arman was a Managing Game Director, which was a leadership position but not one placed in charge of the entire D&D department.

Arman has worked for Wizards of the Coast since 2022 and has led several projects, including the most recent Starter Set and Quests From the Infinite Staircase. Prior to that, he worked as a game designer for Beadle and Grimm's.

Several months ago, Wizards of the Coast announced that they were hiring a principal game designer for Dungeons & Dragons, seemingly to replace Jeremy Crawford (who left Wizards earlier this year), so it appears that Arman is stepping into that role at least in some fashion.

In a statement provided to EN World, a Wizards representative noted that they are thrilled to see Justice continue his great work with D&D.

Greetings!

In spite of what I've read recently, I think that WOTC is headed in a more positive direction. I've been following Justice Arman for a while and I admire his work and his intelligence. He seems like a worthy and compassionate heir to the throne.

I understand many peoples' negativity towards Hasbro and WOTC (especially after the OGL crisis). However, I can would argue that the new starter sets, the new Eberron book, the two new Forgotten Realms books, and the new D&D 2024 Core Rulebooks are about as good as good can get!

I'm always trying to reduce the size of my massive rpg library. Lately, it seems that most of the books that remain in my library have been produced by Wizards of the Coast.

I have only one complaint about WOTC: Their new standpoint on Orcs. For the past 50 years, Orcs have been chaotic evil. From J.R.R. Tolkien to R. A. Salvatore, they have been chaotic evil. How can they justify this change? Are Dwarves and Orcs now allies in the Forgotten Realms? How about Elves and Orcs... Are they now friends too? I guess it's time to re-write ALL of the lore, folks...

Just my humble opinion,
- Dr. Bull
