Writing Good D&D Notes is extremely important when it comes to being a well oiled Dungeon master for your players. If your notes are poor, disorganized, or tough to read it can slow down the game and make the enjoyment drop not only for your players but for yourself as well. Everyone has a different organizational method that works best for them, and sometimes you have to learn what doesn’t work before you learn what works for you for writing good D&D notes!Patreon - https://www.patre...

Oh boy, so this can be a hot topic, yet regardless of your viewpoint on it there's a possibility your DM Is doing this right now and you're unawares. Yet, it is an important thing to discuss because fudging a dice roll can ruin the trust that is crucial between the players and the DM/GM throughout play. What happens if this trust is broken? When should you fudge dice rolls for D&D 5e or Pathfinder 2e? And is it worth it? We chat about this and much more!Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/d...

But now how is that helping us run and get inspired for our own D&D campaigns and various other TTRPGs that we play?

There was an article about Critical Role and Cultural Appropriation that we saw recently that sparked this conversation in our own lives, and thought it was worth having on the podcast as well. It is a different sort of episode than our usual ones, but an important one and a healthy conversation. This can be a tough topic to discuss, but it is crucial that we do discuss it, and discuss it often. Ryan has thought about how to be respectful to the various cultures and moments in history that he...

So we were finally able to get our hands on a copy of the new D&D 5e core rulebook Monsters of the Multiverse! Yet, here's the catch... it isn't really a new book. There's tons of reprinted content here, but with slight alterations to the some races and monsters that have been released since D&D 5e first launched. So are the changes worth picking up this new book? And even more so, why did Wizards of the Coast decide to make this in the first place? We talk about that and more on this...

The warlock was the first class that Braxton and I were both drawn to. The class is both interesting roleplay wise but also unique in it's mechanics for D&D 5e. You can have an elder being as a patron, a genie, or even a celestial which can open up tons of different options for a Dungeon Master to pull you into the story. We chat about all that and more as we discuss how to create a warlock in D&D 5e!Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/dungeoncrawlnetworkOur links & Discord - https:...

A human fighter is the most used class and race in DNDBeyond and likely in D&D 5e. Why is this? Now that you have decided upon the fighter how should you build one and roleplay your D&D 5e fighter? There are many different ways and people believe them to be generic, but we don't believe that to be the case! They are a very versatile and interesting class so listen in as we chat and talk about some ideas. Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/dungeoncrawlnetworkOur links & Discord...

Short rests can be scary to take for some players because their DM can make them appear too punishing to attempt. Yet they are also crucial to the adventuring day in D&D 5e or Pathfinder 2e. So how can we make these rests more inviting and able to be taken? It also seems like Wizards of the Coast is slowly beginning to phase out abilities that replenish upon a short rest. Is this okay? We chat about that and much more in this episode!Also we misspoke - Monsters of the Multiverse come...
