  5. "Go Ahead. Share (Nearly) Everything With Your Players"

    Revealing lore a little at a time is a best practice, but that doesn't mean it's the only way to have a fun game. It can be a blast to reveal nearly every detail up front. Learn the key tricks to make this work at your table, and be prepared to have a ton of fun.

  19. Not all D&D game sessions are created equal. Sometimes, both players and DM say "Meh" and hope the next session is more fun.

  22. 🔥BEWARE OF THE DUNGEON MASTER(S)🔥

    June 19 is not only the release day of our third album ETERNAL DAGGER, but finally our debut album DUNGEON MASTERS will finally see its first re-press on vinyl and CD!

    For obvious reasons, this album holds a special place in our hearts. It also contains some of the absolute fan favourites like Black Magic Spells, Born under the Tower, or Heavy Metal Generation.

    We recorded the album at the legendary Toxomusic Studio in Koblenz, the same place Cruel Force recorded their debut album THE RISE OF SATANIC MIGHT. #HeavyMetal #IronKobra #SpeedMetal #DungeonMasters #CruelForce #metal

  34. One aspect of being a DM that everyone knows intuitively but I've never seen overtly expressed is:

    You never outrun your need for new ideas.

    The ideas themselves can come from many sources, which is one of my most talked-about topics on my blog and YouTube channel.

    To help other DMs, I share my ideas for encounters, adventures, and campaigns in a searchable web-based tool called The Vault. Check it out.

  37. @audreygwinter Context: I'm looking at running some seminars or classes at my local library to teach people how to become #DnD dungeon masters. I've done this twice before, but that was an individual effort, not groups.

    Q: Does becoming a DM have prerequisites, like playing the game for X years beforehand? Other requirements?

    Q: What are the basics a person must learn to start out as a DM?

  49. The "#THAC0 is not subtraction" argument is especially infuriating to me, because it's popular on #reddit, and dependent on the idea that #DungeonMasters were supposed to announce opponents #ArmorClass to players. That's a really amateurish style of old school. No adult should play like that, or defend play like that.

    Still, it's maybe not as bad at whatever the fuck dungeonsdragons.fandom.com/wik is trying to say.
