“The Battle for Birch Grove” Episode 1
Every Journey has a beginning. Every hero has an origin.
Join Dash, Mo’Quee, Iring, Sun Glistens on the Water, Longwei and Madry in their first adventure together as they gather to defend Dash’s home from the threat of the Faceless ones.
This DMD one shot is a six-part adventure that was recorded as “Microphone rehearsals” with the cast of “An Acorn’s Journey: A DMD story” to get them ready for playing on a microphone. These raw recordings have been edited and divided into six episodes. Sadly, Marcus (Sun Glistens on the Water) could not join us for the recording of “An Acorn’s Journey: A DMD story”, but here he is in this prequel.
We hope you enjoy them!

Character death it’s hard, not hard like it’s hard to die in 5E (It really is) but hard in that, your players are emotionally invested in their characters and (if you’re doing a good job running) in other players’ characters. This is a make-it-or-break-it moment for the DM. How you handle the death of a character is equally important to how you do NOT handle the death of a character.
These are the talking points:
DON’T HAVE DEATH BE MEANINGLESS.
DON’T HAVE THEM ROLL A NEW CHARACTER AT THE GAME TABLE.
DON’T RIP UP THE CHARACTER SHEET (DICK MOVE).
DON’T LET THE PARTY LOOT THE CORPSE OF THEIR FALLEN FRIEND (DICK MOVE AGAIN).
DON’T APOLOGIZE FOR THE CHARACTER DEATH.
And that’s 5 things a GM should not do when a character dies. We’ll see you next time, in the Dojo

D&D 5E - ACCESSIBILITY AT THE GAMING TABLE .. Season 3 Episode57
Tuesday Mar 28, 2023
Tuesday Mar 28, 2023
This week we are talking about making your table more accessible for players with disabilities. As a disclaimer, none of us are disabled, so we have no real knowledge of what it is like. What we do know is, D&D is a game for EVERYONE, and we as a community should see that EVERYONE is able to enjoy the game.
This is the talking point for the episode.
START WITH A SESSION 0 AND DISCUSS THE GAME, CHARACTER CONCEPTS, AND WHAT IS AND IS NOT COMFORTABLE FOR THE PLAYERS. IF VOICING SUCH THINGS IN FRONT OF OTHERS IS UNCOMFORTABLE FOR SOMEONE, HAVE A ONE-ON-ONE MEETING WITH THE PLAYER TO DISCUSS THEIR NEEDS.
HOW DO YOU REPRESENT DISABILITY IN YOUR GAME, AND HOW DO YOU DO IT TASTEFULLY?
HOW DO YOU MANAGE DISABLED CHARACTERS AT THE GAMING TABLE?
HOW DO YOU MANAGE DISABLED PLAYERS AT THE GAMING TABLE?
We’ll see you next time, in the Dojo”

The Underdark has captured the minds of gamers since the early days of the hobby, it’s almost a rite of passage for DMs and players alike. Every gamer’s bucket list has slaying a dragon, taking a ride on a Spelljammer, and journeying to the Underdark. But how do you do the setting justice? How do you make it memorable?
These are the talking points:
It’s always dark
There’s nothing green in the Underdark
It’s a confined area, all the time
It’s always dangerous, but add new dangers with the old
The environment is alien to surface dwelling characters
(No sun, no weather, the language is different, the gods worshiped are different)

D&D 5E - DARK FANTASY - When the bad guys are the good guys.. Season 3 Episode53
Tuesday Feb 28, 2023
Tuesday Feb 28, 2023
“We talked about some of the elements of Dark Fantasy, now let’s talk about one of our favorite ways to play Dark Fantasy adventures. We’re going beyond what many may think of as an Anti-Hero. We love playing the monsters!”
These are the talking points:
YOUR PCS ARE THE MONSTERS, VAMPIRES, WEREWOLVES, AND ZOMBIES EVEN. BUT, THEY HAVEN’T LOST ALL OF THEIR HUMANITY.
THEY ARE BATTLING INNER DEMONS BOTH LITERALLY AND FIGURATIVELY.
THE PCS ARE CHILDREN OF TWO WORLDS, THE MORTAL WORLD AND THE SUPERNATURAL.
REVERSE THE ROLES, THE BIG BAD SHOULD BE A PERSON AND NOT A SUPERNATURAL THREAT.
THE ENDING SHOULD BE BOTH HAPPY AND SAD. A BITTERSWEET SEND-OFF FOR THE PCS.
We’ll see you next time, in the Dojo.

D&D 5E - FIND YOUR FANTASY: DARK FANTASY.. Season 3 Episode51
Tuesday Feb 14, 2023
Tuesday Feb 14, 2023
FIND YOUR FANTASY: DARK FANTASY.:
“Dark fantasy is cool. It’s fun to visit a Dark Fantasy setting, especially around Halloween. Our gaming group tries to do something like this every year in October. Whether it’s your Homebrew setting, a one-shot for Halloween, or a visit to Strahd’s Barovia, Dark Fantasy can be a frightening, yet enjoyable adventure.”
These are the talking points :
DARK FANTASY IS A FANTASY SETTING WITH ELEMENTS OF HORROR.
YOUR HEROES ARE LIKELY GOING TO BE ANTI-HEROES.
BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN TO GOOD PEOPLE.
THERE WILL BE DISPARITY AND HOPELESSNESS
THE SETTING IS OFTEN A DARK, BLEAK WORLD, A DYSTOPIA.

D&D 5E - 5 APPROACHES TO PLAYING AN URBAN MONK.. Season 3 Episode 49
Tuesday Jan 31, 2023
Tuesday Jan 31, 2023
“Urban adventures can be really fun. Our group had a good time running and playing an all-urban campaign. A city can just be a city, or, it can be an entire campaign setting within the confines of city walls.”
These are the talking points:
FIGURE OUT WHERE YOUR MONK FITS, IN THE URBAN CAMPAIGN. THEY DON’T HAVE TO BE FROM A MONASTERY OR FORMALLY TRAINED.
PHILOSOPHY IS A PIECE OF EASTERN MONK TEACHINGS. THIS CAN BE MUCH LIKE KNOWING THE NATURE OF THINGS, YOUR URBAN MONK CAN BE WELL VERSED IN THE NATURE OF THE CITY, IT’S POLITICS AND IT’S PEOPLE.
DEPENDING ON WHERE YOUR MONK COMES FROM IN THE CITY, THEY MAY NOT BE A PEACEFUL MONK WHO IS A SKILLED FIGHTER BUT QUITE THE OPPOSITE.
MAYBE YOUR MONK IS A DRUNKEN BAR PATRON AND HIS FIGHTING STYLE IS AKIN TO DRUNKEN KUNG FU.
HOW DO I EXPLAIN KI?
We’ll see you next time, in the Dojo”

“There are a bunch of things to consider when you begin planning an underwater campaign. Much of it will be the same as any other campaign, you’ll need enemies, a big bad, and a riveting storyline, but there’s much more to consider.”
These are the talking points :
IF YOU’RE CHOOSING TO PLAY TRADITIONAL RACES, THEN YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW THEY ARE GOING TO BREATHE.
COMBAT IS DIFFERENT, ENEMIES CAN BE IN FRONT OF, BEHIND, AND ON EITHER SIDE OF YOUR PLAYERS. THEY CAN ALSO BE ABOVE.
WEAPONS THAT ARE NORMALLY EFFECTIVE ON LAND MAY BE INEFFECTIVE UNDERWATER, THE SAME MAY BE TRUE FOR SPELLS.
WHAT’S THE SETTING? (IS IT A DOMED CITY, A CORAL “FOREST”, A FROZEN SEA, ETC)
WHAT ABOUT MOVEMENT, VISIBILITY, AND WATER PRESSURE?

D&D 5E - 5 THINGS YOU MUST HAVE IN YOUR DARKSUN CAMPAIGN. Season 3 Episode 39
Tuesday Nov 22, 2022
Tuesday Nov 22, 2022
These are the talking points,
GET RID OF ALL THE “EXTRA” RACES WE NOW HAVE IN 5E.
THIS IS A POST APOCALYPTIC SETTING, THERE SHOULD BE A HEAVY SURVIVAL ELEMENT TO YOUR DARK SUN CAMPAIGN.
THIS MAY GO HAND IN HAND WITH THE PREVIOUS, BUT, MORALS ARE DIFFERENT IN A DARK SUN CAMPAIGN, THEY ARE…LET’S SAY, FLEXIBLE.
THERE HAS TO BE PSIONICS. IT REPLACES MUCH OF THE MAGIC THAT IS LOST
SLAVERY AND DISPARITY. LET’S FACE IT, THIS IS NOT A HAPPY PLACE!
Here’s a list of conversions I’ve found.

D&D 5E - SCUM AND VILLAINY: INTRODUCING YOUR VILLAIN. - ”Season 3 Episode 37”
Tuesday Nov 08, 2022
Tuesday Nov 08, 2022
Villains, from mid-level baddies to your big bad, the rules of introduction are pretty much the same. You’ve spent a lot of time working on your antagonists, you’ve got to give them a proper introduction.
These are the talking points.
MAKE THEIR INTRODUCTION BIG.
THEIR MOTIVATION SHOULD BE VERY CLEAR.
MAKE THEM LIKABLE.
THEY SHOULD BE MORE THAN JUST EVIL, ONE DIMENSIONAL VILLAIN ARE BORING.
LET YOUR PLAYERS KNOW THEY ARE A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH RIGHT FROM THE JUMP.

The Dungeon Master's Dojo "The DMD"
"Your rolls must be light and true, as though your table were upon the back of a sleeping dragon. It is said, a Dungeon Master can breathe life into a universe. Assailed...they cannot be bested. Fierce...yet they are merciful. Of one voice... though speaks as many. This paper is the test. Empty as the beginning of time, fragile as the wings of the Faerie. When you can walk its empty path and leave behind a world. You will be ready.
