  1. Nevermind? or Youtube Friendly Unit Shifter? Jasmine Bhullar, DesiQuest creator and Marquet co-builder, takes the DM screen for Wizards of the Coast's Dungeon Masters, launching on YouTube April 22nd with a Ravenloft: The Horrors Within tie-in, timed to sell the sourcebook on June 16th.

  2. 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.

  3. @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?

  4. #DnD question, and I ask this from a position of having the curse of knowledge:

    How hard is it to learn how to be a Dungeon Master, really?

    There's a couple of quick murder-hobo mentions in this one. (Video contains advertising at the end but I think you won't mind it.)

  6. 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.

  8. I plan to post a video soon about how a recent camping trip got my D&D and creative juices flowing. Meanwhile, here's a video I posted recently with tips on how you can find your creative muse:

  11. More evidence Mastodon is awesome:

    For my most recent video [ Table Tales ep. 1 - "It was awesome! Don't ever do it again!" ] posted last week, 52% of traffic came from Mastodon alone. It took 7 other sources of clicks to generate the other 48% of traffic.

  12. Sometimes I will deliberately go for a walk, ride or drive to build up my creative juices when planning a D&D campaign. It helps me get out of creative ruts.

  13. As a new content creator on YouTube, I'm working to put out a new video every week. It's fascinating to see which ones gain in popularity the quickest...
