Over the weekend, Wizards of the Coast posted a <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/4146417514/?fbclid=IwY2xjawIWGJ5leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHaw1u2oyjXJNQnY2f4tUZHID7frQUwlIqYBpRH0M2eH3oyQCvjszncPnqw_aem_cAAkDPr2Fjdh5C23yTtPBA" target="_blank">new job listing</a> for a "Senior Narrative Worldbuilding Designer for Dungeons & Dragons." The new position will help Wizards of the Coast "create exciting and inspirational new settings" alongside developing existing settings. Notably, this isn't a position limited to the D&D RPG design team - the position will also work with "ensuring narrative consistency" across video games, entertainment and the D&D RPG.At a press event <a href="https://www.enworld.org/threads/dungeons-dragons-teases-new-campaign-settings.710962/" target="_blank">earlier this year</a>, D&D franchise head Jess Lanzillo mentioned that new campaign settings were potentially on the way. "With Jeremy Crawford taking on the game director role and then Chris Perkins taking on the creative director role is that we were able to really reestablish a world building environment," Lanzillo said. "What does that mean? We can really establish our worlds and settings like the Forgotten Realms and also look to creating new ones again. That's something that we are working on and we don't have anything to really discuss today other than to tell you like we are re-establishing everything that we have and we are going to make some new stuff too."The full job listing is below:[callout]We are hiring a Senior Narrative Worldbuilding Designer for Dungeons & Dragons.
