A pinkish red CrossCountry voyager train with yellow front and baby blue doors, parked in the refurbished, curving trainshed at Bristol Temple Meads. A guard hangs halfway out the door, watching for boarding passengers.

Anyway, nice train. An evolution, not a revolution. Comfortable seats and smells less like it's survived 20 years of hauling Plymouth to Aberdeen.

10/ FINAL WORD on GAMEMASTERING

You can read books. You can watch videos. You can attend workshops. But none of that makes you a Gamemaster.

Embrace the game. Make mistakes. Encourage dynamic play.

The university is in your living room.
Have fun storming the castle!

#RPG #GM #DMU

9/ VILLAINS

A villain is not just an enemy. They believe they’re right. The best villains pursue a goal that makes sense to them, even if the players must stop them.

Let them plan.
Let them adapt.
Let them win sometimes.

A dynamic villain makes the world dangerous and interesting.

#RPG #GM #DMU

8/ Non-Player Characters

NPCs are not props.

They are people in the world with needs, fears, loyalties, and ambitions. Even the shopkeeper has a story.

Give them a goal, a problem, a voice. Make the characters care.

Players remember characters longer than they remember maps.

#RPG #GM #DMU

7/ THE WORLD LIVES

The world doesn’t pause when the players leave the room.

Villains plan.
Kingdoms shift.
Enemies adapt.
Ecosystems evolve.
Empires fall.
Interregnum is dynamic.

When the players return, the world kept moving without them. That’s when the game starts to feel real.

#RPG #GM #DMU

6/ CONSEQUENCES

Player choices matter.

If nothing changes because of what the players do, the game becomes theater with dice.

Let victories matter.
Let mistakes matter.

Consequences are how the world tells the players their actions have weight.

Let hard choices stand and grow.

#RPG #GM #DMU

5/ FAIL FORWARD

Sometimes the dice say no.

Good GMs don’t stop the story when players fail. Failure should move the story forward, just in a different direction.

Missed the lock? Now the guards arrive.
Failed the ritual? Something else answers.

Failure is portal to adventure.

#RPG #GM #DMU

4/ GM SECRET: A MOMENT OF AWESOME

Gaming is collective storytelling. Players are looking for opportunities to showcase their gifts, take center stage, and become instrumental to the tale.

They don’t have to die.
They just have to shine.

4/ Derek Hawkins adds a good one.

Good GMs understand story.

You don’t need to be a novelist, but you should understand pacing, tension, rising stakes, and consequences.

Players remember moments. Each is seeking their “moment of awesome.”

Your job is to help those moments happen.

#RPG #GM #DMU

3/ Here are my suggestions for becoming a good GM:

• Know the genre — manage expectations before you begin.
• Read the rules — they are not always hard and fast.
• Be ready to interpret them — you are the final arbiter.
• Master character creation — characters are the core elements.

#RPG #GM #DMU

2/ GMing is a calling. I have spent over 40 years running and writing games. This is just a sampling of the systems I've run.

AD&D (all editions)
Pendragon
RuneQuest
Stormbringer/Elric

World of Darkness
Call of Cthulhu
Champions/Hero System

Cyberpunk 2020
Shadowrun
Traveller
TORG

#RPG #GM #DMU

1/ “Dungeon Master University?” Are you kidding me?
Paying $1,000 to learn how to be a GM?

I don't see an expensive weekend making you a GM. You learn to run games by bleeding behind the judge's screen.

Run your session, take your licks, and come back next week better prepared.
