Taverns have become part of the DNA of Dungeons & Dragons, maybe even more so than dragons guarding mountains of gold or evil wizards commanding dark armies. As a DM, it’s up to you to take the worn trope of a smoky inn and turn it into something unexpected and engaging.
Luckily, we have some great advice on how to make tavern visits remarkable, plus “The North Call Inn” – a complete free tavern download!
Few questions are asked with more anticipation and excitement at the tabletop than “Do we find any loot?” For a DM, this often means scrambling to come up with some random loot on the fly.
For many players (and GMs with little prep time), a nice, one-page dungeon crawl can be the perfect way to break up an adventure and drop some new loot into a party’s hands. The Eight Elements Dungeon (free download) is an excellent example of a short, compact dungeon that should take up a 2-3-hour session. What are 3 things that make a great dungeon crawl?

Hello everyone,
If I have not been replying your messages and emails, I will admit the past months have been cra-zy (in a good way). After the massive success of the Remarkable Shops Kickstarter hitting over $100.000 I had to immediately shift my attention to another big milestone in my life: getting married. After a relentless push to finish our renovations to the house and garden, we had only a few months left to get everything ready for our wedding itself.
Loresmyth is looking for a freelance Blog/Social content writer to be my ultimate sidekick. Are you an experienced blogger that loves dungeons & dragons and can work a few hours per week?

It has been an amazing ride, and clearly, you are very much awaiting this new fantasy roleplaying book!
