Weaving BACKSTORIES into D&D Campaign is EASY with Kelly from Dorkstales
Kelly (DM extraordinaire from Dork Tales) is a master at characterisation. He shares EASY tips to help new and experienced Dungeon Masters of Dungeons and Dragons weave character backstories into a campaign. It makes for a funner, more engaging and memorable experience for players and DMs alike.
He talks about:
◽️ Asking a few questions to help the players create rich backstories
◽️ How to use the backstory elements to shape the story, NPCs, and organisations in a campaign
◽️ Suggestions about weaving multiple character backstories into the narrative.
◽️ The role of Session Zero
Plus together we play a game called "In a World".
