IF, and only IF, our world can send it's people to defend theirs.  He can facilitate this transfer by means of cross-dimensional portals... but the trip is strictly one-way.  He ends the communication saying that he is opening the portals now... and at that moment, regular broadcasting resumes, revealing the opening of portals in major cities across the globe.  All the players have, for one reason or another, decided to accept this task, and enter the portal.  Having done so, you find yourself in a strange void between dimensions, with a user-friendly graphical system asking you to design the form you wish to enter the world in... and the system is asking you to choose attributes and race and class and other things, in a way that seems exactly like D&D. Oh, before I forget, attributes are assigned by the standard point buy, 25 points.</blockquote>
