- Everything I’ve learned from animated villains I’ve put into … making my D&D sessions more fun for my players?
We’ll be talking about (evil and sneaky) tips & tricks to use when you run your Session 0, how to use the things your players talk about to create their dream campaign, and why you probably shouldn’t run your session 0 the way you were thinking.

Thanks! You are an amazing person and an excellent communicator, with perfect comic timing. I look forward to your content!
This is so deeply real to me. It speaks to me on a personal level.
Session 0 is a great idea, even if you are just starting a new campaign with your existing group. Before the Session 0 the best way for me to gauge what the players like is to a Google form and the Linear scale type of questions so that you can find out on a scale of say 1-5 how much they like different things. For example: Fantasy Level: 1 Low Fantasy (Gritty and realistic) 5 High Fantasy (Magical and epic).
It seems the Session 0 System Kickstarter is over and all products pulled from their site. Where can I get a copy?
Something I would heavily recommend as a GM of around 3 years. Safety tools! Traffic light systems, consent checklists that go over mature themes that might come up depending on the genre.
This stuff is so important for understanding your player’s boundaries and hard limits when it comes to themes they are willing to explore in your games so that everyone knows exactly what to expect and can negotiate around the elements that might make players uncomfortable. This is especially important in a horror campaign like Curse of Strahd or Icewind Dale as well as any Underdark or Abyss themed campaign.
Definitely agree! As someone who loves those campaigns I’m a big fan of safety tools, you never know what things might not be enjoyable for players otherwise!😊
