My latest adventure, The Taskmaster, was featured in the @dms_guild newsletter!
It helps get new players off to a good start through a series of tasks given to the party by a maniacal wizard!

I've always been disappointed with how poorly #dnd adventures are set up for new #ttrpg players. So I wrote one specifically designed to introduce new players to #dnd5e! Check it out now on @dms_guild!

@addieplaysgames The replies of "this one time I played with 72 people" is just Headline Bias - they are mentioned because those sessions are rare. And there is a reason they are rare.
Long ago I stopped DM'ing for more than 4. It's just not fun. #dnd
To whatever DM needs to hear this: Your #dnd villain doesn't need to be some deep, traumatized, morally gray, anti-hero that makes the players ask "are we the baddies"?
They can just be really, really, really evil. Sometimes it's satisfying to kill hitler.
@newbiedm @Dan_Dillon_1 I always thought it was in there if the NPC is rolling against another NPC. For example, if the NPC is following the party around as an ally. The party might say "Hey, go try to intimidate that guard for us."
@CBrobarian @Blackmoor_Film When your players encounter one of these creatures, give them clear in-game signs that they are way out of their depth. Maybe they see the creature perform some incredible feat of power from afar. Or maybe something powerful that they fought earlier is running from that creature.
@DavidBarrentine I have a few one-shots on #DMsGuild. My best seller is far more simple than the others. Like uncomfortably simple. It's just an interesting investigation quest with no frills.
I think that simplicity is why people like it so much.
@IntrepidDm Quickly ending encounters that aren't as interesting as I thought they would be and moving on.
On several occasions I've dragged out an encounter that I thought was awesome because I thought it "needed room to breathe" when in reality it just wasn't that good.
The redwyrmling (with the help of his daddy) is preparing content for his upcoming #dnd book... Redwyrmling's Guide to Everything. Here is part five of his advice for both players and dungeon masters. #ttrpg#ttrpgkids#ttrpgsolidarity
#dnd friends. Let's talk about backgrounds. What makes up a "good" background for you?
What is useful? What isn't?
What do you think about the traits/bonds/ideals/flaws framework?
#DungeonMaster friends, what about you?
