Doing some last minute prep for session, I order pizza. They always get here faster than I anticipate (~25 min) so I go downstairs after 20, not wanting to leave them hanging at building's front door.

Of course this will be the time it takes them an hour, for no reason at all.

That moment as a DM when an encounter you thought was going to be a challenge ends up being a cakewalk… I love it, but man. 😂 #dungeonsanddragons #dnd #dmproblems

Finished up our 2-part Halloween 'session' tonight, wrapping up the 20th session of Building a Nation! Sadly, no one got eaten by the Great Pumpkin...but there's always next year!

The Scooby-Doo one-shot is mostly finished: I've got the NPCs, places, and core mystery all figured out. The question now is one of tone: I'm torn between a whimsical, comedic tone like the cartoon, or dark and gritty tone a la Riverdale.

I completely forgot that #Oblivion has a quest involving a town full of invisible people, and I JUST put a town full of invisible people in a #D&D game THREE DAYS AGO 🤦‍♂️

Since half of the party started playing Oblivion yesterday...it will likely come up.

Sometimes it's not DM burnout, sometimes you're just depressed as fuck

So I have my monthly D&D session tonight. I added a tiny interaction in the very beginning of the campaign that was meant to be a one off thing. However now it's a major plotline I have to make up as I go. Don't deviate from the written adventure kids. It's so much more work. 🤣

"I have lightning resistance. I'd like to go out into the storm and use my body as a lightning rod to keep the damage off the ship."

Dude ended up taking 4 Lightning Bolt spells to the face and succeeded. My D&D players are insane. I wouldn't have it any other way.

One of my players mentioned that he ships one of the other players (mysterious guy) with an NPC (reformed pirate guy) and now I can't stop thinking of scenarios where they have to share the same bed, or it's Very Cold and they need to cuddle, or they have to get fake married! #DMproblems #dnd

I have now googled "How much blood is in a cow?"

I have used that knowledge to calculate how much blood is in a dragon.

And then worked out how much of that blood they could reasonably harvest to sell.

My D&D players are insane and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Me: I'm going to run a time travel campaign!!
My players: got it! So clearly a proficiency in history will be entirely pointless and we will not be taking it.
Me:...

Planning two campaigns going on simultaneously in the same world, which is the same world as our first campaign and all I can think of is I’m gonna MCU the shit out of these games #dnd #dmproblems

I don't think I could ever run a game set in Faerun; I'd constantly be terrified that my players know more about whatever faction they're dealing with or place they're in than I do. I'd have to set my game in some long-lost ACTUALLY forgotten continent in the Forgotten Realms.

Sat down for about twenty minutes of deep background prepwork for D&D, and it was actually super productive! The only issue is how the clock is making that twenty minutes look suspiciously like four hours....

People will be here in the next half hour for D&D and, as always, I do not feel nearly as prepared as I'd like.

An unexpected gift card leaves me with the following dilemma: Do I buy a collection of D&D minis to paint with my new fancy paint kit, even though I don’t have plans for them yet in my campaign, or do I buy 1 mini and the even fancier color shifting paints?

Spent several hours with a buddy last night co-writing the #Shadowdark adventure he's running next month, 'Temple of the Alligator Lord.' It's shaping up really well; I'm starting to get a little jealous I won't be playing in it!

Thinking about an enchanted suit of armor that is so gaudy it grants advantage on attacks against the wearer, but so sturdy it gives damage rolls disadvantage. I just can't figure out if it's a fun design, or simply annoying 🤔

How did Noah describe and catalog animals? This is not something I ever thought I’d have to mock up, yet here we are.

Oh, man. I stayed up too late prepping again. On the upside, I'm ALMOST finished with this three-level dungeon. Might throw in a dinosaur or two, just to keep things spicy.

First D&D session back for the year … [breathes a sigh of relief]. That was waaay too long a break. No TPK because I can’t roll for shite as a DM and the PCs all rolling crits. Probably just should’ve rolled out a legendary creature … #DMproblems

DM problems(?)

Went out for a fantastic evening with 2 friends at our local #boardgame shop, played some great games...

Now I'm locked into DMing a monthly #DND session 😂 luckily I've already written a campaign that is being unused!!!
