I've been trying my best to publish a new video weekly on Mondays, but the upcoming "How I Ran: Hazlan (Part 1)" video is taking a looong time to edit (it's a long one) - so I doubt it'll be ready for Monday. Hopefully later on in the week rather than skipping a week entirely, but we'll see... 🤞💥

One year ago... Answering the question: should you surprise your players with Curse of Strahd? The answer is probably no(!) - here's why... #CurseofStrahd www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkWC... (as an aside, seeing Strahd in the video's thumbnail still makes me laugh...)

New DM of the Mists video! 🌫 It's Halloween week! 🎃 So I thought I'd do a silly/semi-jokey video detailing 99 ways a PC (Player Character) might die in one of the most notorious & difficult D&D 5E campaigns! (Note: expect spoilers throughout!) #CurseofStrahd www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhuL...

This is really cool. I did a tarokka draw of my own & left the results as a comment.

- Maintaining horror as PCs get stronger
- Dice superstitions
- When to offer light or hope in a world of tragedy
- Fave Strahd consort
- When to do the Keepers of the Feather reveal
- Jander & Firan (Ravenloft NPCs)
- I also did a quick Second Tarokka Reading draw!

One year ago... When should Strahd be first introduced in Curse of Strahd? He's not a villain who should wait until the very end to reveal himself, after all. A lot of DMs introduce him fairly early on - but there is another way... 🧛😈 #CurseofStrahd www.youtube.com/watch?v=1VcG...

Hopefully it'll all work out (I'm sure it will) - but if it doesn't for whatever reason, then could that prep be saved for another time/group? Hopefully it won't go to waste. E.g. I prepared a load of stuff on Roll20 for a one-shot that didn't happen, but I could reuse it for other people instead.

Wouldn’t be in your local library, but what about my novels? First one is $0.99 at the mo on Kindle (or free if Kindle Unlimited). Very D&D inspired but is its own thing. More info here: stevemorganauthor.com

If you're looking for alternative Halloween (or Ravenloft) music, I recommend British musician Ed Harcourt. One of my fave singer-songwriters. His Halloweeniest/Ravenloftiest songs include "Loup Garou", "Heart of a Wolf", "A Ghost Walked Through Me" and "Deathless"…

In last night's session, my players finally found & reunited with Firan! First time they've seen him since May 2023, which (by my math) was about 90 session ago. Lots of catching up to do! 🧙‍♂️💀

An unfortunately-placed "..." looks like I'm gonna be talking about AI during the upcoming AMA... 😂😩
A screenshot from my YouTube channel (DM of the Mists) showing the title of an upcoming livestream. Unfortunately it cuts off at the end, and instead of sayijng "Lets Chat All Things..." it says "Let's Chat Al...", which looks like "AI" (as in Artificial Intelligence).
