Sorry to be so offtopic but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Eli Benedict Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Im 14 and have recently started DMing in school for some of my friend s who thought d&d was ‘not cool’ and ‘’sad’ but I got the school librarian to order the starter set for us and we play once a week on a Wednesday afternoon. Also really enjoyed the review and think that mad mage would be a great adventure for my players after they finish lost mines of phandlever
Cool! I hope you're able to show your friends how awesome D&D can be! Phandelver is a great adventure to start with, too. Feel free to hit me up if you have any questions about DMing (that's exactly why I do this channel--to help DMs!). I have a Discord server with other DMs dedicated to helping each other out if you're interested, too: discord.gg/Msat4NB
I'm 17 and My School has a Club for it. The party I DM for and I play every Wednesday and Thursday at Lunch and Office hours. I know most schools don't have that so it makes me glad to know that you got That!
I'm going to thank my DM, Joe. He was the person who pulled me out of a decade worth of fear of judgement and failure in order to join my first campaign. I was so afraid of joining a D&D campaign that it took me over a decade to even purchase the handbook. Joe (and the other members) let me sit in on an online campaign to break the ice and after that evening he asked "So, you're joining us next time, right?" and he helped me to do so.
Joe sounds like a truly awesome man. So cool he did all that to help you out! I'm really happy to hear he was able to help you like that! Stuff like that is what makes our D&D community so awesome. Seriously.
I'm in my 30s and just started playing D&D earlier this year. I run an online group including international friends as well as friends who are differently abled and can't drive. Giving them another social outlet was big on my list for starting this wonderful game.
Me and three friends have begun to play D&D this week after purchasing the three core rule books together. We are having a blast, and are currently homebrewing our first adventure. We look forward to playing again soon!
That's awesome!!! D&D is tons of fun, as I'm sure you all are discovering. If you guys have questions, feel free to hit me up on my Discord server: discord.gg/Msat4NB There are also other veteran DMs there to help folks out. The goal of the community I'm creating there is to help other dungeon masters so we all can become better together.
One way I go about helping the community is talking to people about the community and fun game aspects. I love watching people roll those virgin dice for the 1st time.
I love being included in the forums. It is here that many people are able to share and discuss information around DnD. As a newer player I look to those who are also new and try to give them some of the pointers or tidbits I myself have learned the hard way.
So, my group is very new to D&D. We have all played once before, but we've never had to sit and research our own characters (our DM's did that) and we've never had to research rules and spell slots. Well all 5 of us are learning together which is amazing, but for my nice thing I want to send an appreciation gift to my old DM for always making my characters and letting me play simply for the fun of it not the technical part. It started my love for the game and now I have a group willing to learn and play because of him! #shoutouttobenthedm!
I've scheduled a session for a group of complete newcomers to D&D who have always been interested in playing, but never knew how to get started. It’s my little way of giving back to the D&D community: offering a table and my newfound experience as a Dungeon Master to beginning players, and hopefully fostering an appreciation of the hobby!
Awesome! Bringing new players into the hobby is one of the single best things one can do, IMO. Thanks for stepping up as a DM! It's something lots of folks are hesitant to do.
I am setting up yet another D&D game during lunch times at the school I teach at. The students all have ASD and often struggle with social interactions, D&D provides a structure to help them interact with each other in a positive way and helps them something to look forward too each week. When this new group starts I will be running 4 D&D lunch time clubs in school
As a high school teacher, I spread the Joy's of DnD on a daily basis. I also am writing one shot modules to play with them. Expanding the community is how I give back.
I'm writing a novella for my DM, to accompany our game and give other interested friends who haven't played with us yet little cameos as story characters to engage them as well!
I am training my 12 yr old son and his friends how to play D&D paving the way for the next generation of players and DMs they love it and I'm so proud. This book will allow us adventures we haven't done and a way to train my son how to dm games for his friends.
I look forward to playing and dming, people tend to like that about me and all my family and friends I played with like about the fun that’s at the table. It’s all about having fun.. so thanks to everyone that plays it will play.. it’s a game changer.
I was a long time d&d player, my son of 20 has just gotten into it which has bought me back into it. He really wants to be a dm and I’ve shared some of yourVideos with him to help him AlongThe way. I made him his own custom dice box and dice tower.We have lots of fun talking strategies, types of players etc..So I’m really thankful for that. Fun helpful videos, keep it up.
That's awesome! Glad you're finding the videos helpful. Tell your son to drop in on my livestreams -- got one coming up this Friday. I usually do a Q&A thing with viewers, so it's a perfect time to pepper me with questions. :D
I love brining new players to D&D and everytime I DM a game I have someone new play and learn because I think that's fun and I love giving them dice and stuff to learn. I would like thank my players that I DM for because they are always great and understanding of my decisions.
Hi Luke! One positive thing I can do for the D&D community is remind both players and DMs that communication is key to any group’s success. It’s much easier to pull someone aside and talk with them one-on-one than let situations and tensions build up. Following that could not only save your party, but keep friendships solid 🙂
I have been running DnD games for close to 30 years on and off. I started with a few friends back in 83ish and just kept my playing. But this week my son ask me to help him and his friends play, and he wants me to help him DM!!! I’m so excited to tell that we are about 3/4 done with dragon heist and he’s doing wonderful! So if I get lucky, this would really be for him and me both! Father and son DMing together!
That's awesome, Dennis! I'm glad you and your son get to share D&D and likely become closer as a result. I personally treasure the couple years that my daughter played dnd with me before she lost interest (became a teenager). 😀
I plan on always striving to be a diplomatic voice in the D&D community. It can be easy to hate on what we might not do or allow ourselves as players and DMs, but as much as possible, trying to keep a balanced perspective and remembering the heart of the game, why we love to play, is what I always try to go back to and what I want to encourage others to do.
I got sober 3 years ago and a couple of new friends and I play damn near every week now. It's my new obsession, I love playing with new people and even get surprised when they remember rules better than I do. Oh, and we constantly buy dice and show them off. We even have a 3.5 vs 5e insider jokes. I love that this is in my life now.
One good thing I want to do for the DnD community is open up more of my family to it, planning on running a bit of the Storm Kings Thunder for Christmas. I hope making it open to my family will let them to spread it to their friends to.
One of my players does the same for me, too. I love DMing, but it does feel good to get a break every so often. Just showing up to a game without having had to prep for hours feels great. :D
I didn't have anyone to introduce me to d&d till recently. I had thought it was too nerdy, and it would not be my type of game. It took my friends convincing me to at least watch a game last year for me to get my start. Since then, it was been a huge part of my life, helping me through some tough times, and helping me make friends that I would not have found otherwise. I want to be able to "give" the experience of this game to more people who haven't gotten to try it yet. It greatly improved my life, so I figure that it might do that with other people's lives too
I'm relatively new to D&D, but I've been playing Magic: the Gathering for years and have filled my head with a rediculous amount of lore for that multiverse. I'll be putting that to work at my FLGS to run a Ravnica game for new D&D players.
A friend of mine and myself, are working on creating a community in our small town, that will allow D&D players and DMs eaisly find groups, pick up adventures and set up their own worlds. We've already planned a number of workshops for both DMs and players to help those who want that. As for the format of play, we're going to do a West Marches style games - the players will choose adventures they'll be going on, they'll choose whom they'll be going with and when.
My first campaign in d&d has ended so I’m hoping to keep the team together with another campaign and probably send my amazing dm a set of minis for all the great work he’s done
Message to all the players out there: you guys are the best, you help dms like me tell their story, and you make it even more awesome than it could ever be.
I DM a group of very new players who were weary about trying D&D. But I convinced them to try it and it’s lead to them coming out of their shells. I plan on expanding my d&d arena to even more new players.
To make the D&D community bigger and cooler I decided to propose the idea of D&D to a teacher at my school who runs a Magic:The Gathering club. He said that after he has read the Player's Handbook he will start the club up which consists of 20 people. For that club I will always be DMing. That's what I did for the D&D community
I plan on helping my dm with new ideas for our campaign by making it more interesting in ways we haven’t experienced yet as a group and then sharing our experience with the rest of the community
First of all this might be my favorite premade module yet. 2nd of all you're definitely going overboard with those giveaways :)). D&d community is truly amazing and i am so greatful to be part of it
Yep, giving stuff away is a great way to thank my viewers for their support. And you get free stuffs. That's a win-win, right? :D Yes, the D&D community is awesome, for sure.
I co-started a community group 2 months ago that opened the doors to D&D for all ages in my town. Two games so far in a Adventurer's League style format as well as a "DM'ing 101" session for those who want to learn to DM. There are more planned of both and we've had good turn outs so far!
Every Thursday in my bar we run a game night and spread the word about DnD. We make the bar all ages that day until 9pm so families can come learn and play together!
I just started playing DnD and the dungeon master is very creative in the stories so far. I would like this as a christams gifts to further his creativity and our experience as players!
I insure a good flow of communication between myself, my Gms and my players. When people have rough weeks I set aside time to help them process their emotions.
I plan to continue to DM for new players; introducing people to the game in a positive way with unique and innovative campaigns; as well as helping more people realize that D&D is everyone's favorite game they just don't all know it yet.
To make an impact on the community I have actually started a club at my school in order to introduce people to dnd and how to play hopefully inspiring them to do their own things in the future
As a DM, I have already treated some of my players to hand made dice boxes. I have a few hobbies of my own and one of them, along with DnD is woodworking. So after I see my players who have stuck it out and given alot to my group, I gave back to them by making some handmade dice boxes. I hope to make some for every player in my group so they all can enjoy a gift of DnD love!
It's all about creating and taking part in an awesome adventure that helps them get away from irl for a bit. Laughter is the best and I give that gift to my party and dm whenever possible.
I have started a D&D group at work and we have been prepping for a month now just to play this exact module. My goal beyond here is that we are working on a side project to help build more functional digital tools to help players of all formats (even thought D&D is the best) and start helping leverage the talents of the D&D community to build out more gaming opportunities and creative outlets to our youth to learn how to play and express themselves creatively!
I really hope to make a positive impact on my community with D&D. I think D&D can help my community in ways that no one could have thought, it can teach people team building skills, acceptance, and how to be themselves.
I will keep running my games to show people this wonderful thing that I've played for over 30 years. All my players are having g fun and I am grooming new DMs for the next generation.
I plan to do DnD campaigns at local game stores and churches for those who wish to finally delve into D&D, after years of missing out. I want to connect with people through this amazing experience.
I've been part of the D&D community for only a year, and I spent it DMing. I got my GF into it, and I have at least two if not three players from outside the USA. So instead of jumping in as a player, I did the harder jump right to DMing, and I'm encouraging people overseas to get into the hobby.
Excellent! Phandelver is an awesome beginning adventure I'm told (though I've nevet run it myself). I'm sure dungeon of the mad mage will be tons of fun for your friends. It'll be a nice intro to a classic dnd dungeon crawl! 😀
I plan on introducing D&D to younger people in my local area in England to get them as hooked as I am to this game that has already become an obsession for me!
Run a one shot that will end in the players rescuing santa. Santa will grant them one of the presents he has on him. Whatever each player chooses is what they get in real life. I've been playing with the same group for 2 years now and still being in school each session has had us talking for the whole week. I'm glad to have been nominated the perma-dm for these guys and it's going to be great giving them something as thanks for sticking around.
I am starting to play DND for the first time with my friends. None of us have played! Getting one of the books would be a tremendous help and I plan on purchasing minis and dice for each of my players!
I'm definetly gonna gift this to my DM so he doesn't have to buy it himself! He'll be so excited. We try to make our table as exciting as possible with props, painted minis and custom maps to bring in the attention at our local gameshop.
We'll have the 2nd anniversary of us starting playing dnd soon and I'm planning a session for my players where they revisit the location of our very first adventure. There's also gonna be a cake.
Already left a comment but it wanted me to comment again, so you get another one my man. Its really awesome to watch your channel grow. I’m so very proud to be a patron.
At my table, I'm crafting custom terrain/set-pieces for each of my players' characters, as our two-year campaign comes to an end. In the community, I run easy D&D sessions for kids at my synagogue to help them exercise their imaginations and learn probelm-solving and team work.
I have always had an issue with finding someone to run a game. So i taught myself how to DM, I am constantly trying to get me people into d&d and encouraging them to learn how to run their own games so they can start their own groups and enjoy their own fantasies in however they can.
I just ran DnD for my mom who really wanted to learn. I suggested other simpler table top rpg’s but she was set on DnD so I scrounged up some of my family to play with us so she could learn. The campaign is going great so far.
I've been looking to get my old gaming group back together and playing again. We've always been Pathfinder players, but I've been looking into 5e recently and was hoping to play through Dungeon of the Mad Mage to convert everyone and get us started again. I also just recently found Hero Forge and was thinking I would make a late Xhristmas present out of custom minis for everyone in our campaign.
I am running 3 separate dnd campaigns. I am currently running one with a completely new group who have never played and are now passionate about dnd and two one-on-one campaigns with people who dont feel comfortable in a group.
I am the leader of a dungeons and dragons club at my highschool, in which I bring in many new players that previously had no idea the joy of dungeons and dragons. I try to get the materials I can but a free book would help us out a lot, especially some of our newer dms.
With the Christmas coming up I am running a Christmas one shot where the magic items my players receive will all be tailored to their own personal likes outside of the game
I plan on teaching my current players how to DM and then starting a D&D club at my uni. I have had the chance to teach a whole bunch of people about D&D.
I am a DM starting out. I have started and will continue to make props scenery and items for the players to work with in the game so that they feel more enthralled and pulled into a storyline. I'm hoping to start an on going with waterdeep dragon heist so dungeon of the mad mage would help me to add a lot of lore and extra detail to this campaign. Thanks!
I have begun running my first ever game of dnd for my mother and our very lonely, very elderly neighbor Jean. Shes getting to be a dragon born Paladino's with all the strength and capabilities shes never had, and shes gaining friends through the community. My whole goal was simply to improve her quality of life in her few remaining years, and while that isnt much for the /community/ per se, it's the world to her.
Yeah, rock on! I started DMing for my daughter when she was about 12 years old. Did it for a little over a year. It was tons of fun. Lots of great memories. :D
I plan to use these materials to help me become a better DM. If I can be a better DM then I can get more people involved in DnD and that can lead to even more people getting involved.
It is my hope to show other starting out dms, or players that running a game can be rewarding too. I hope to show people of all ages how much fun dnd can be, and how much good it can do for us.
I've been thinking about making dice boxes for my players. The kind with cut out foam inserts so you can customise what's inside. It'll open like a book with the left side having the cutout and the right being a rolling tray
I'm painting a whole lot of hero and monster minis for our group currently :) I came to the video to check out a review of the new book and didn't notice the giveaway till the end, but it's a nice bonus ;) Thanks for the great review!
I am drawing the entire monster manual as cartoons right now, then plan to post them online for DMs and Players to use freely. :) I can’t wait to finish. I’m only 10 in and have a ways to go to finish. I love that you went this direction of positivity for your entries. So much more interesting then the standard like and subscribe.
@@theDMLair I have been posting progress items on my twitter feed that I will link below. I am going to build a website to post my work a bit later, but you can follow the progress if you like. :) > twitter.com/geeksofreno
The positive thing I plan to do more and have already done is to welcome a bunch of new people to the amazing world that is DnD. For example I recently welcome a really good friend of mine to play in my first DMing session and it went pretty spectacular and she loved every bit of the experience! I also plan to get my regular DM a really dope set of dice cos he’s been a great one for the 3 years we’ve been playing :)

Congratulations to Daniel B, the giveaway winner!
As much as I enjoy entering, I'm not going to give gleem the right to edit or delete my UA-cam posts, thank you.
Sorry to be so offtopic but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account?
I was stupid forgot my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.

@Eli Benedict Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Eli Benedict It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account :D

I run a middle school D&D game at the local library as part of my church’s ministry. Would love to add a book to the collection for them!

Show my players my gratitude for their patients with supplying dice and knowledge where I can
Adding my family to the D&D community! I am bringing my family together by running Waterdeep: DH for my adult siblings and parents.
Me and three friends have begun to play D&D this week after purchasing the three core rule books together. We are having a blast, and are currently homebrewing our first adventure. We look forward to playing again soon!

I plan to pass D&D onto my kids as they get older, & include more friends & family!! It brings me joy & I want to share that.
Passing on D&D to the next generation is the best. I played D&D with my daughter for about 2 years and it was full of amazing moments. :D
I am setting up yet another D&D game during lunch times at the school I teach at. The students all have ASD and often struggle with social interactions, D&D provides a structure to help them interact with each other in a positive way and helps them something to look forward too each week. When this new group starts I will be running 4 D&D lunch time clubs in school
Awesome! Thanks so much for teaching our youth and helping students with D&D! 😀👊
I am going to introduce D&D to my college friends and make sure to try and make a tabletop club at my school.
DM lair:"over 300 pages"
me: *laughs in Rappan Athuk*
Exactly!
... having run both 2e Undermountain... and Rappan Athuk... they are very different dungeon environments.
As a high school teacher, I spread the Joy's of DnD on a daily basis. I also am writing one shot modules to play with them. Expanding the community is how I give back.
Awesome! Thanks for being a teacher, too! I was a teacher in Central America for four years. It is a noble and worthwhile job teachers do. 😀👊
I'm writing a novella for my DM, to accompany our game and give other interested friends who haven't played with us yet little cameos as story characters to engage them as well!
I am training my 12 yr old son and his friends how to play D&D paving the way for the next generation of players and DMs they love it and I'm so proud. This book will allow us adventures we haven't done and a way to train my son how to dm games for his friends.

Perfect, we need more of that for sure. Thank you!
I ordered my dm a really nice set of metal dice to thank him for all his hard work!
I got sober 3 years ago and a couple of new friends and I play damn near every week now. It's my new obsession, I love playing with new people and even get surprised when they remember rules better than I do. Oh, and we constantly buy dice and show them off. We even have a 3.5 vs 5e insider jokes. I love that this is in my life now.
That's awesome! Congratulations on being sober for 3 years! I'm glad DnD is helping you out. I play every week too. Some obsessions are good. 😀
One good thing I want to do for the DnD community is open up more of my family to it, planning on running a bit of the Storm Kings Thunder for Christmas. I hope making it open to my family will let them to spread it to their friends to.
Starting a campain in the new year and teaching others even teens to play for the first time and hopefully to enjoy it as much as I have for 30 years.
I've started running my own game in order to let our regular DM be a player and help me work on running awesome games.
One of my players does the same for me, too. I love DMing, but it does feel good to get a break every so often. Just showing up to a game without having had to prep for hours feels great. :D
I didn't have anyone to introduce me to d&d till recently. I had thought it was too nerdy, and it would not be my type of game.

I want to be able to "give" the experience of this game to more people who haven't gotten to try it yet. It greatly improved my life, so I figure that it might do that with other people's lives too
It's awesome to hear that D&D has helped you through rough times. I have players who tell me the same. Passing it on to other is perfect.
I'm relatively new to D&D, but I've been playing Magic: the Gathering for years and have filled my head with a rediculous amount of lore for that multiverse. I'll be putting that to work at my FLGS to run a Ravnica game for new D&D players.
I want to thank my DM for setting up a place where we can actually do weekly sessionsby getting some adventure books!
I started D&D by DM-ing a bunch of other new players. We play Out of the Abyss, it was a lot of fun.
A friend of mine and myself, are working on creating a community in our small town, that will allow D&D players and DMs eaisly find groups, pick up adventures and set up their own worlds. We've already planned a number of workshops for both DMs and players to help those who want that. As for the format of play, we're going to do a West Marches style games - the players will choose adventures they'll be going on, they'll choose whom they'll be going with and when.
For Christmas I’m gifting my nephew and niece the 3 main core 5th edition books.
Always take snacks to share with me, ocasionally gift my DM with minis painted by myself, run games so the DM can rest/play, and mentor new DMs.
One of my players gives me minis all the time. As a DM, I heartily support that practice. :D
I've been running multiple games for new players at my local game store. Great kids and some have been playing for almost a year now. D&D rocks!
Yes, totally agree: D&D Rocks! :D
I'm playing with a new group and a fledgling dm. I try to be super supportive out of character and encourage the whole party.
My first campaign in d&d has ended so I’m hoping to keep the team together with another campaign and probably send my amazing dm a set of minis for all the great work he’s done
Message to all the players out there: you guys are the best, you help dms like me tell their story, and you make it even more awesome than it could ever be.
100% agree! 👊
I DM a group of very new players who were weary about trying D&D. But I convinced them to try it and it’s lead to them coming out of their shells. I plan on expanding my d&d arena to even more new players.
To make the D&D community bigger and cooler I decided to propose the idea of D&D to a teacher at my school who runs a Magic:The Gathering club. He said that after he has read the Player's Handbook he will start the club up which consists of 20 people. For that club I will always be DMing. That's what I did for the D&D community
I plan on helping my dm with new ideas for our campaign by making it more interesting in ways we haven’t experienced yet as a group and then sharing our experience with the rest of the community
First of all this might be my favorite premade module yet. 2nd of all you're definitely going overboard with those giveaways :)). D&d community is truly amazing and i am so greatful to be part of it
Yep, giving stuff away is a great way to thank my viewers for their support. And you get free stuffs. That's a win-win, right? :D
Yes, the D&D community is awesome, for sure.
I co-started a community group 2 months ago that opened the doors to D&D for all ages in my town. Two games so far in a Adventurer's League style format as well as a "DM'ing 101" session for those who want to learn to DM. There are more planned of both and we've had good turn outs so far!
Every Thursday in my bar we run a game night and spread the word about DnD. We make the bar all ages that day until 9pm so families can come learn and play together!
I just started playing DnD and the dungeon master is very creative in the stories so far. I would like this as a christams gifts to further his creativity and our experience as players!
Love the d&d community, my group and I are buying a stain for our dm for working so hard.
Thanked my DM for the fun times we had in the forgotten realms!
That's perfect. A DM ALWAYS likes hearing from their players that they enjoy their games.
I insure a good flow of communication between myself, my Gms and my players. When people have rough weeks I set aside time to help them process their emotions.
I plan to continue to DM for new players; introducing people to the game in a positive way with unique and innovative campaigns; as well as helping more people realize that D&D is everyone's favorite game they just don't all know it yet.
To make an impact on the community I have actually started a club at my school in order to introduce people to dnd and how to play hopefully inspiring them to do their own things in the future
Got all of my friends into d&d. They really enjoy it and I am the dm
As a DM, I have already treated some of my players to hand made dice boxes. I have a few hobbies of my own and one of them, along with DnD is woodworking. So after I see my players who have stuck it out and given alot to my group, I gave back to them by making some handmade dice boxes. I hope to make some for every player in my group so they all can enjoy a gift of DnD love!
It's all about creating and taking part in an awesome adventure that helps them get away from irl for a bit. Laughter is the best and I give that gift to my party and dm whenever possible.
I have started a D&D group at work and we have been prepping for a month now just to play this exact module. My goal beyond here is that we are working on a side project to help build more functional digital tools to help players of all formats (even thought D&D is the best) and start helping leverage the talents of the D&D community to build out more gaming opportunities and creative outlets to our youth to learn how to play and express themselves creatively!
That's awesome. Keep me informed about that side project. I'd be interested in checking out what you come up with.
I started a D&D group in my local town on FB and thanked all the DM,s and PC that have joined and now I hold 2 groups biweekly at my home.
I really hope to make a positive impact on my community with D&D. I think D&D can help my community in ways that no one could have thought, it can teach people team building skills, acceptance, and how to be themselves.
I will keep running my games to show people this wonderful thing that I've played for over 30 years. All my players are having g fun and I am grooming new DMs for the next generation.
What I would like to do to help the D&D community is one day be able to write campaigns that players around the world can play.
I plan to do DnD campaigns at local game stores and churches for those who wish to finally delve into D&D, after years of missing out. I want to connect with people through this amazing experience.
A lot of my friends run dnd games that eventually fall apart, so I'd love to create a healthy group of players so we can all enjoy this wonderful game
Run an adventure for people who have never played d&d before.. bringing new people into this great hobby!
Perfect! Get more people addicted! 😀👊
I've been part of the D&D community for only a year, and I spent it DMing. I got my GF into it, and I have at least two if not three players from outside the USA. So instead of jumping in as a player, I did the harder jump right to DMing, and I'm encouraging people overseas to get into the hobby.
That's great! Yes, DMing is much harder than being a player, for sure. But I've always found it to be more rewarding, too.
I just started teaching 5th edition to friends with the starter set. I'd love to run this adventure next! Good luck to everyone who enters!
Excellent! Phandelver is an awesome beginning adventure I'm told (though I've nevet run it myself). I'm sure dungeon of the mad mage will be tons of fun for your friends. It'll be a nice intro to a classic dnd dungeon crawl! 😀
I plan on introducing D&D to younger people in my local area in England to get them as hooked as I am to this game that has already become an obsession for me!
Run a one shot that will end in the players rescuing santa. Santa will grant them one of the presents he has on him. Whatever each player chooses is what they get in real life. I've been playing with the same group for 2 years now and still being in school each session has had us talking for the whole week. I'm glad to have been nominated the perma-dm for these guys and it's going to be great giving them something as thanks for sticking around.
Win or lose I plan to share my love of the game with anyone and everyone who wants to know more (and some who don't)
I am starting to play DND for the first time with my friends. None of us have played! Getting one of the books would be a tremendous help and I plan on purchasing minis and dice for each of my players!
I'm definetly gonna gift this to my DM so he doesn't have to buy it himself! He'll be so excited. We try to make our table as exciting as possible with props, painted minis and custom maps to bring in the attention at our local gameshop.
Awesome!!! I definitely support giving gifts to DMs. They do so much work behind the scenes!
I plan on teaching my daughter not just how to play but how to paint as well. Bringing the next generation of gamers to the community.
We'll have the 2nd anniversary of us starting playing dnd soon and I'm planning a session for my players where they revisit the location of our very first adventure. There's also gonna be a cake.
Already left a comment but it wanted me to comment again, so you get another one my man. Its really awesome to watch your channel grow. I’m so very proud to be a patron.
Thanks a lot, Matt! Yes, it's very exciting! 😀 Thanks for all the support you've given me!!!
At my table, I'm crafting custom terrain/set-pieces for each of my players' characters, as our two-year campaign comes to an end. In the community, I run easy D&D sessions for kids at my synagogue to help them exercise their imaginations and learn probelm-solving and team work.
That's awesome! 😀👊
I have always had an issue with finding someone to run a game. So i taught myself how to DM, I am constantly trying to get me people into d&d and encouraging them to learn how to run their own games so they can start their own groups and enjoy their own fantasies in however they can.
I just ran DnD for my mom who really wanted to learn. I suggested other simpler table top rpg’s but she was set on DnD so I scrounged up some of my family to play with us so she could learn. The campaign is going great so far.
We are starting an adventurers league at our shop and I have volunteered to DM and lead the events.
I've been looking to get my old gaming group back together and playing again. We've always been Pathfinder players, but I've been looking into 5e recently and was hoping to play through Dungeon of the Mad Mage to convert everyone and get us started again. I also just recently found Hero Forge and was thinking I would make a late Xhristmas present out of custom minis for everyone in our campaign.
I am running 3 separate dnd campaigns. I am currently running one with a completely new group who have never played and are now passionate about dnd and two one-on-one campaigns with people who dont feel comfortable in a group.
I'm running a game this weekend bringing in 3 new players who have had a hard time fitting in at work!
I am the leader of a dungeons and dragons club at my highschool, in which I bring in many new players that previously had no idea the joy of dungeons and dragons. I try to get the materials I can but a free book would help us out a lot, especially some of our newer dms.
With the Christmas coming up I am running a Christmas one shot where the magic items my players receive will all be tailored to their own personal likes outside of the game
I plan on teaching my current players how to DM and then starting a D&D club at my uni. I have had the chance to teach a whole bunch of people about D&D.
I was planning to be a dm for my younger siblings to get them involved in the community and have them find a passions for D&D
Me and my friends are wanting to get I to d&d and this book will really help us get started!
I am a DM starting out. I have started and will continue to make props scenery and items for the players to work with in the game so that they feel more enthralled and pulled into a storyline. I'm hoping to start an on going with waterdeep dragon heist so dungeon of the mad mage would help me to add a lot of lore and extra detail to this campaign. Thanks!
I have begun running my first ever game of dnd for my mother and our very lonely, very elderly neighbor Jean. Shes getting to be a dragon born Paladino's with all the strength and capabilities shes never had, and shes gaining friends through the community. My whole goal was simply to improve her quality of life in her few remaining years, and while that isnt much for the /community/ per se, it's the world to her.
Impacting just one person's life is invaluable. Rock on.
I am currently a DM for a local group, and a group online. I teach new people the art of DMing and help people learn how to play D&D.
So many people are interested in D&D and have trouble trying it like I did so I want to be able to provide a safe place for friends to try it out
I've been DMing for 20 years and act as a 'teaching DM'. I take great pleasure in introducing the game to new players,or hopefully DMs.
I am a DM at my school i have made new friendship and made the school more interested on playing D&D
I am introducing the world of D and D to my children, opening their eyes to this whole new world.
Yeah, rock on! I started DMing for my daughter when she was about 12 years old. Did it for a little over a year. It was tons of fun. Lots of great memories. :D
I plan to use these materials to help me become a better DM. If I can be a better DM then I can get more people involved in DnD and that can lead to even more people getting involved.
It is my hope to show other starting out dms, or players that running a game can be rewarding too. I hope to show people of all ages how much fun dnd can be, and how much good it can do for us.
I've been thinking about making dice boxes for my players. The kind with cut out foam inserts so you can customise what's inside. It'll open like a book with the left side having the cutout and the right being a rolling tray
I'm painting a whole lot of hero and monster minis for our group currently :)
I came to the video to check out a review of the new book and didn't notice the giveaway till the end, but it's a nice bonus ;)
Thanks for the great review!
Glad you liked it! Thanks so much for supporting your group via painting! I love me some well painted miniatures.
I am drawing the entire monster manual as cartoons right now, then plan to post them online for DMs and Players to use freely. :) I can’t wait to finish. I’m only 10 in and have a ways to go to finish.
I love that you went this direction of positivity for your entries. So much more interesting then the standard like and subscribe.
That sounds cool! Please let me know when they are posted/available to be seen. I'd love to take a look! 😀
@@theDMLair I have been posting progress items on my twitter feed that I will link below. I am going to build a website to post my work a bit later, but you can follow the progress if you like. :) > twitter.com/geeksofreno
Awesome. Followed!
I am introducing 3 new played to D&D in my new campaign. As we finish up Waterdeep they are completely hooked and ready to dive into Undermountain!
The positive thing I plan to do more and have already done is to welcome a bunch of new people to the amazing world that is DnD. For example I recently welcome a really good friend of mine to play in my first DMing session and it went pretty spectacular and she loved every bit of the experience! I also plan to get my regular DM a really dope set of dice cos he’s been a great one for the 3 years we’ve been playing :)
That's awesome, dude! I have a player who gifts me with all kinds of stuff. It's great. :D
