Who’s who in LEGO Collectible Minifigures 71047 Dungeons & Dragons
LEGO Collectible Minifigures 71047 Dungeons & Dragons is all about the roleplaying game and we’ve got a guide to all 12 minifigures and more.
The LEGO Group’s partnership with Wizards of the Coast and Dungeons & Dragons is expanding beyond 21348 Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale later this year with a series of 12 affordable minifigures, including some callbacks to specific characters from the worlds of Dungeons & Dragons. The series is available to pre-order now following its reveal at San Diego Comic-Con.
For longtime Dungeons & Dragons players and Dungeon Masters alike, the series is a veritable treasure trove of characters and monsters as well as parts useful to make your own custom characters. To those unaccustomed to the game, you might not be able to recognise a Tiefling from an Intellect Devourer.
Ahead of their launch and while we wait for early copies to appear so the Brick Search team can add them to the app, here’s a guide to every minifigure in 71047 Dungeons & Dragons. These are accompanied by individual images spotted on online retailer Mister Bricks, as LEGO.com only features a group image.
Dwarf Barbarian
The orange-haired Dwarf Barbarian isn’t a specific character and instead represents the titular race and class. Dwarfs are common across fantasy franchises as well as across LEGO sets but in D&D, they are skilled in constitution, which grants more health and is useful for barbarians to tank damage for their teammates.
This minifigure is one of the more simplistic, but widely appealing characters in 71047 Dungeons & Dragons with no notable magic items that we can see. Barbarians are fuelled by rage, despite this minifigure’s stoic smirk but the scar suggests they have plenty of experience in battle.
Gith Warlock
While most of this upcoming minifigure series features minifigures with realistic skin tones, the Gith Warlock is no different despite its yellow skin as Gith characters tend to feature skin in shades of yellow. The LEGO Group has opted for their standard yellow colour here, allowing the recent hairpiece to be used on yellow-skinned elves of your own design. Gith tend to be part of one of two opposing cultures – the warriors of the Githyanki and the inquisitive Githzerai and as a warlock, this minifigure could fit well into either culture, having made a deal with an otherworldly entity.
This minifigure has quite a few items on their person and while we can’t recall a staff that exactly matches the eye-topped staff they have equipped, the stones attached to their belt could be sending stones, allowing you to send messages to the holder of the matching stone.
Tiefling Sorcerer
Unlike other classes that must work for their magic, sorcerers are gifted with such abilities from birth as their family lineage has ties to magic in some way. These could be from a dragon, similar to the small creature included as an accessory. Tieflings are a unique race in Dungeons & Dragons that are a cross between any other race and creatures of an infernal nature, hence the devilish horns and tail. This ancestry makes them naturally skilled in charisma, which is beneficial for sorcerers as a charisma-based spellcasting class.
The Tiefling Sorcerer’s pieces include such horns and a tail, the former of which is new as well as a small dragon. Unlike Warlocks, Sorcerers don’t get a dragon from any of their class features and this may be a gift from the Dungeon Master to the player. The transparent pink piece could represent a great number of spells but the presence of three darts has us wondering whether it could be Magic Missile – a trustworthy attack that almost always hits, but at the cost of little damage.
Dragonborn Paladin
Dragonborns are one of the most visually interesting races in Dungeons & Dragons and we’ve seen one before as a minifigure in 21348 Dungeons & Dragons: Red Dragon’s Tale. This time, the minifigure is descended from a gold dragon with shining golden skin accordingly.
Their shield is adorned with the symbol of Bahamut, the god of justice and this explains why this minifigure is a paladin. They represent a deity and proudly display their symbol as they seek justice in Bahamut’s name.
Halfling Druid
Halflings are not to be confused with Dwarves and Gnomes despite their similar heights. Halfling’s proportions tend to be similar to that of a human, just at half the height as the name suggests. Halflings are skilled with natural dexterity and that makes them good picks for rogues and fighters.
Druids aren’t an unusual class for them though as that boost to dexterity also provides a boost to their armour class, giving them less of a chance of being hit in combat. This minifigure has no magic items to speak of that we can see and the bird that accompanies them isn’t necessarily a companion, but a result of one of the many animal-adjacent spells accessible by druids.
Aarakocra Ranger
Aarakocras are another interesting race from the Dungeons & Dragons world, depicting bird-like humanoid figures with the ability to fly, feathers, beaks and talons that they can use to their advantage. They’re not a bad option for rangers as the class is well-equipped for ranged weaponry and being airborne while firing an arrow is always going to be a useful skill.
Rangers can be accompanied by animal companions, as this minifigure is by a small dog. They don’t seem to have any magic items on them, but the new element for the wings is sure to be useful.
Mind Flayer
The Mind Flayer does not represent a playable race and class, but a monster that can be faced in Dungeons & Dragons. As recently depicted in Baldur’s Gate 3, these tentacled, humanoid figures have a penchant for brains.
The Mind Flayer’s only accessory is a new element for a four-legged brain known as an Intellect Devourer. These creatures seek out intelligent beings and try to catch them off guard and they’re usually subservient to Mind Flayers too. Where one is found, the other may not be far away.
Strahd von Zarovich
Strahd von Zarovich isn’t just a monster to be fought in Dungeons & Dragons but a specific and legendary villain that comes from a land known as Barovia. This vampiric character is a menace to townsfolk and heroes alike, seeking blood and obedience while ruling Barovia with malicious intent.
The accessories include a chalice – useful for blood or wine – as well as a rat that could be linked to the Vampire’s ability to summon swarms of rats once a day. Alternatively, he can summon bats or wolves when outdoors.
Elf Bard
The Elf Bard is the last player character in 71047 Dungeons & Dragons equipped with a decorated lute and a cutlass. Elves are another common race across fantasy media and in Dungeons & Dragons they are naturally dexterous, which can be useful for a bard as much as it can for any class.
Bard’s are a great support class in Dungeons & Dragons, equipped with ways to make you roll higher, heal your characters and dish out some harmful words via their Vicious Mockery cantrip.
The Lady of Pain
The Lady of Pain is an interesting choice for 71047 Dungeons & Dragons as a powerful character that hails from Sigil, the self-proclaimed centre of the multiverse and a key figure in the recent Planescape: Adventures in the Multiverse campaign setting and adventure.
Their complex design centres around the stoic mask they wear but what they hold in their hands is just as notable. This legendary magic item is a Cubic Gate, which can transport those who use it to different planes of existence. It’s a powerful item that makes sense for a minifigure that sits at the centre of the multiverse.
Szass Tam
As featured in the Dungeons & Dragons movie, Szass Tam is a powerful necromancer and lich that is known to be a scourge of Faerûn. Their design is appropriately skeletal, even paying homage to the original LEGO skeletons.
We believe that their accessories include the Darkskull, which allows them to bypass areas hallowed by powerful magic and wreak undeath as they will. Otherwise, the transparent effect could represent a great manner of fire spells but hopefully, it’s a fireball.
Tasha the Witch Queen
Rounding out the minifigures is Tasha the Witch Queen. Tasha is the adoptive daughter of Baba Yaga and a powerful spellcaster who is featured in the recent Vecna: Eve of Ruin adventure. She comes from the second edition of Dungeons & Dragons and is also known as Iggwilv or Natasha.
Her accessories include a book, likely featuring her spells and a cauldron, which she may have brought from her domain in the otherworldly Feywild. This minifigure matches her design from the cover of Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything – an expansion book with spells, subclasses and more.
