Lilith plays a druid named Doric in the movie, but she also played D&D with her friends in high school. In fact, her character had her Vi-Boy Raider with a very profane name, and his catchphrase was “It’s not sexual.”
That hilarious sarcasm aside, she’s had experience with the game, so I assure you justice that this is exactly how it’s played. Instead of helping, I recall spending a good amount of time locked in a room and fighting tiny plants.

Although she works with the entire cast, the majority of her scenes are with Michelle and Chris, and when she heard her name, they both instantly lit up.
