Ask Game Masters
881 readers
1 users here now
A place where Game Masters, Dungeon Masters, Storytellers, Narrators, Referees (and etc) can gather and ask questions. Uncertain of where to take the story? Want to spice up your big baddie? Encounters? That player? Ask away!
And if you have questions about becoming a Game Master you are most welcome with those as well!
Rules
- Be civil. Be kind. Treat each other with love and respect.
- No question too small, no conundrum too complicated. Ask away.
- If system is relevant to your worries do mention it.
- If you post a link do add a few lines why it is helpful.
- No piracy or illegal content. Do not link to, request or encourage piracy or any other illegal content or activities.
- If your question, or answer, contains mature themes mark it NFSW.

"Return of the Lazy Dungeon Master" is by far the best guide I'm aware of.

Mike literally changed how I prep my games and I’m so better for it.
@thenerdscribe Thank you!
Mike is the main reason I'm even considering running a game at all.
He's turned my whole perspective around.
I thought I had to be some sort of omniscient writer/entertainer, whereas I can probably get away with it by just making shit up as we go, rather than trying to herd cats into a book I shouldn't be writing.

Also, just read Mike's website: https://slyflourish.com/
Yep, there's so much stuff there. Tons of articles and tools, lots of good advice
He also has some handy videos, check his playlists ...

Absolutely. His podcast, Lazy RPG Podcast, is great. Every other episode is his prepping for an upcoming session, going through the steps of the Lazy DM.
