What DMs can learn from the new D&D movie

Hey friends! Here's my last piece of content about D&D: Honor Among Thieves, so those of you who are uninterested in it can breathe a sigh of relief 😂 I thought it might be fun to view the movie through the lens of a DM and see what lessons it can offer.

What do you think — an...

Help me write Bardic Inspirations!

Hey friends! As I approach 500k YouTube subscribers (!!!) I am getting ready to make a new celebratory video, like these:

7-Day Character Challenge

Planning on tackling the 7-day character challenge from my recent YouTube video? You can download the complete list (with tips on how to get the most out of it!) here:

I did a 7-day D&D character development challenge

For this week's video, I tried something new — I created a 7-day challenge to deepen character development, and then I did the challenge myself and documented it!

I have... no idea how people will respond to this, haha. Hopefully it won't totally bomb, because it was a lot of work 😅 View Post

April: Livestreams, NPCs, socks

It's April! Lots of fun merch developments this month, and I'm laying the groundwork for some big videos that probably won't come out until May.

What happens when fanfiction meets tabletop?

For this video, I tried out a 2-player romance game called Star Crossed!

Storied Weapons

As a sister collection to Storied Armor, these are magic weapons with origin stories!

You can use those stories to give the items the weight of history, or ignore them and just use the mechanics. View Post

Storied Armor

Magic items are fun, but magic items with a backstory? Sign me the heck up! This month, I wanted to create some weapons and armor that are more than just a +1 sword. Each of these magic armor items has an origin story, either historical or mythical. You're welcome to use those stories if you like...

I watched Dungeons & Dragons (2000) so you don't have to

I'm sure everyone will have differing opinions on the new D&D movie, Honor Among Thieves, but I think we can all agree on one thing: It can't be worse than Dungeons & Dragons (2000).

March: Livestreams, new merch, magic items

Hey friends! We're halfway through March, so here's a little update.

This adventure taught me a critical GM skill

HI! It's 2am. That's why this doesn't have a thumbnail or a final title/description yet. But I figured I might as well let y'all watch it a few hours early, since god knows when I will wake up tomorrow after being up this late 😅

Someday I will share the story of why I had to do this vide...

Gelatinous Cutie (re-edit)

I re-edited some old Gelatinous Cutie photos today on a whim, because I've never been thrilled with the first set. Sometimes I find it useful to revisit old photos, both to implement what I've learned since originally editing them, and to consider how I'd wear & shoot this costume differently...

Augury's new horns

Realized recently that I only had ONE still photo with Augury's new horns, and it was her calendar photo! So I snapped a few stills while shooting last week's skit.

Even though these horns are much heavier (and thus can only be worn for about an hour before I start getting a truly killer he...

Just some Ediths!

Here are some quick stills and a few selfies from this week's skit! I tried a new eye makeup look for Edith and I kinda dig it. Plus I think I did a better job on her gnomish nose than I've ever done! (File under: things no one will notice but me, haha!)

This also showcases what I'm thinkin...

Edith & Augury Bloopers

There wasn't much for this one, but my "demon baby" was so freakin' loud while I was trying to film this that I had to share it.

If D&D characters made dating shows

The Grasping Mother and her Lost Children

This month, I wanted to create not just a monster, but a whole story — a villain with some fun mechanics, as well as some thematic minions that could create an interesting, dynamic combat. And of course, who doesn't love a good lair? Thus 2023-02-25 01:35:20 +0000 UTC View Post

Bloopers — House Rules

I almost titled this "noise, hair, and other worries," but let's be real, there are no other worries in these bloopers 😅

Here are some bloopers from this week's "House Rules" video!

Could the wrong house rules RUIN your game?

Don't panic, but... maybe?

This video is me sort of remaking a video I made in 2021 that just didn't do that well. I thought, well, the advice from the video was useful, I just didn't package it properly to reach people — so why not try again? I've taken a lot of the content from that vid...
