AITA To Quit A Campaign Cause I'm Not Having Fun?
February 09, 2024 18:30 - 7 minutes - 5.26 MBUnfortunately for the player, death happens. Often actually. If he, or the party did nothing to reposition or draw the attention of the wraith onto another member then honestly what could they expect to happen? As a DM I treat combat similarly and realistically. If a creature is attacking a party member they will continue to do so unless something else draws its attention. I vote this DM is not the a-hole.

DM Banned Me From Playing As A Cleric Because I'm Not Religious In Real Life
January 27, 2024 18:30 - 7 minutes - 5.13 MBIt really is wholesome that DND, a fun fantasy game of wizards, warriors, and dice can change a person's perspective on the real world and the people coexist alongside us. Kudos to this DM for really helping his players see this differently in a positive way. The argument about playing a woman and not being a woman was absolutely brilliant.

When A Follower of Vecna Saved the Universe
December 19, 2023 18:30 - 9 minutes - 6.31 MBI really like the campaign setting. A hopeless now win situation that is almost certain death for your party. I wonder how the campaign would have gone if they had rolled poorly on getting that note out to the outside world…It’s always a win when the players manage to foil the GM’s plan in a genuine, non-meta game, non-hostile way.

Players Got Irritated At Me Cause I Wouldn't Give Them More Diamonds
December 12, 2023 18:30 - 6 minutes - 4.54 MBIt’s so strange to me that people are mad about finite resources or their being consequences for your actions in a game that is determined by…your actions. I understand some players just want the power fantasy and approach DND like a video game and their only interest is blowing up monsters and getting loot. I may be biased because I don’t run games that way or have any interest in playing in a game like that. What do you think? Do you run games that have consequences for your decisions? To ...
Was This DM Wrong For Not Letting A PC Come Back To Life?
December 05, 2023 18:30 - 8 minutes - 5.75 MBIt’s so refreshing to get to hear both sides of a conflict. In my opinion the DM didn’t properly articulate the lethality of this campaign. I wasn’t there but from the world setting and the rarity of diamonds I would imagine player death’s would be pretty rare or the DM would have told them to bring a stack of character sheets because this is going to be a meat grinder. But I am glad that the DM recognized that they didn’t do a good enough job explaining the world and allowing the player t...

Why Going Off-Script In DnD Is Not Always Bad
November 21, 2023 18:30 - 10 minutes - 7.48 MBHow quickly the roll of the dice can turn a villain into an inconsequential bump in the road. These are the best damn moments. A DM can’t plan for this, player’s can’t predict it. That’s the beauty of it. We aren’t playing a perfectly scripted story. The crazy and unknown are what makes this game great.

Why My DM Banned Me From Using A First Level Spell
November 14, 2023 18:30 - 9 minutes - 6.42 MBEasily my favorite part of this story is the fact that the DM tried to get out of the situation he put himself in. He rolled with the punches and let his player’s plans happen. That’s what it's all about, the improv the quick thinking and begrudgingly rewriting all of that planned campaign because of the spell Command.

I Cheat At DnD & I'm Not Gonna Stop
October 31, 2023 18:30 - 8 minutes - 5.6 MBImprovisation is the soul of dungeons and dragons. My approach to DMing is creating a rough outline of plot devices that my players can run into that will propel the story forward. Of course most of the time they go in the complete opposite direction and I shift my plot devices that way or simply make things up. I think that if you’re playing DnD correctly you have to be cheating just a little. Share your stories about your incredible improvisation skills in the comments below. Don’t forg...
Player Quits Because A Ghost Made Him Old
October 24, 2023 18:30 - 7 minutes - 5.09 MBThese situations are what makes a DM think a lot. Should the DM have shielded the player by not following the rules for his own happiness? Or perhaps it was a lesson for other DMs to be more flexible? Every table has good and bad moments. I'd love to hear from you, especially if you've faced similar situations in your campaigns.
