It's been clear since Chamber of Secrets that Rowling played D&D at some point. The proof? Polyjuice potion. A potion of many juices? Doesn't make a lick of sense. That's a name that only make sense if you're thinking of a polymorph spell. And the only way you're thinking of that is if you are or have been a gamer.
Not true. Polymorph is a real word, not just a DnD word.

DnD majorly mirrors fantasy stories. You can easily ignore DnD and go straight for the sources DnD used.

The Phylactery thing is a very common device used by mythological wizards.

I think Voldemort actually has 7 Horcruxes.
