🎲 On this episode of Z’s Dice Den, Z (your friendly neighborhood NPC) is joined by first-time guest Caleb, a longtime Dungeon Master with a pandemic-born D&D origin story. They dive deep into the often-overlooked topic of inventory management—making mundane gear more meaningful, dealing with player hoarders, and how to balance loot without losing track of the story. Caleb shares practical tips from his years as a forever DM, including why some players lose their items (thanks to goblins), how personalized magic items enhance storytelling, and when tracking ammo actually matters. The duo also reflect on character development, magic item progression across campaigns, and the unspoken DM right to fudge a roll—or three. Whether you're new to D&D or a seasoned dice-slinger, this episode brings laughs, insight, and just the right amount of chaos.
