Dungeons & Dragons now has a combat wheelchair to provide adventurers with mobility and accessibility both in and out of combat. Earlier this month, Sara Thompson released rules for a combat wheelchair for use in Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition. Thompson explains in the opening paragraphs of the ruleset that the combat wheelchair is meant to enable a character with disabilities with the ability to go on the same adventures as able-bodied characters, and was inspired by the designs of the wheelchairs used in wheelchair basketball and rugby.
