I have a question for all my viewers out there.

How do great Dungeon Masters guide unforgettable stories without railroading their players?

This will be the main focus for this month's content alongside a new series going on with my long form content!

Keep this in mind and will hopefully break it all down at the end of January 👍

Hey everyone, sorry for the delays In posting, things have been hectic to say the least the last two weeks having to fix my shower and with the holiday period recording has been very sporadic.

So I think instead of trying to rush out a video for tomorrow instead I am going to keep posting up some more shorts during this time and focus on starting to make higher quality long form videos for the start of the new year.

It's not the best news I know but I honestly want to make you all the best videos I can and I feel rushing to get a video out just because of algorithms isn't really who I am.

So expect more short form videos for the next couple of weeks but no long form videos probably at least until January.

Hope you are all having happy holidays and great Christmas inspired games!!

All the best,
Soul (The Casual DM)

So we just Hit 300 subscribers!!! and i just wanted to say thank you soo much! I should have made a 300 film tie in but i'm not that amazing when it comes to planning things out. But since you're reading this here's a bonus ttrpg tip related to the event!

When planning fights that are supposed to convey that they are unwinnable or agaianst odds that should feel impossible. Make sure to throw in solid music, focus on the weather as if even the gods are mourning this loss to come. Have characters talk about their wants and hopes and dreams even if they do not get to see it. Even if the Pc's don't make it out of that fight alive the players will remember that moment for the rest of the campaign so make it as Epic as possible. Steel their resolves and have it so everyone there in that moment would be willing to storm Hades gates itself!

Thank you again my friends and here's to many more stories to tell!

Found this beautifully cursed freeze frame while editing my next video…

The true horror of being your own editor 😂

🕯️ New video is up, adventurers!

With Halloween right around the corner, I put together some beginner DM tips for running horror one shots — covering atmosphere, spooky locations, terrifying monsters, and all the eerie stuff in between 👻

It’s a bit of a rough edit (tech gremlins struck again), but the advice is solid and perfect for anyone looking to scare their players just the right amount.

So unfortunately there will not be a new video today, (trying to learn why Google drive won't let me upload my video via mobile at the moment). Video will be posted as soon as possible but unlikely to be today.

Dreadfully sorry but will make a post as soon as it's up.

Hope you all are having a nice week regardless ❤️
