When your players are making new characters, do you have any limitations you typically tend to use?
Way back, I let one of my players make a Minotaur and it was very unbalanced to say the least.
I soon found out that player was extremely good at min-maxing. Oopsie 🤷

Had a relative suggest I should take on gig work through Fiverr and then brag about how he convinced his dad to buy a Cybertruck so I'm not sure I trust his suggestion of gig work now.

If you run #dnd online, what's your VTT of choice?
So far I haven't found one that feels perfect, but Foundry VTT does feel good. I don't need my VTT to calculate rules, just that it be a fairly streamlined visual experience that allows players to talk, text, and move their to tokens around.

I'd love to make my own custom GM screen for D&D 5e.
The one WotC sells doesn't feel like it covers the ground it needs to. 1/3 of it is taken up by conditions, what's up with that?
Sometimes I feel like they don't actually use their own products lol

If you also have an ADHD riddled brain, how do you track your abilities & spells, especially at higher levels when there's lots to manage and not much space on the character sheet?
Do you memorize?
Do you write details on cue cards?
Do you list the PHB page number for reference?

I didn't know about Session Zeros until just a few years ago. But once I had, I knew it was something I'd do the next time I ran a campaign.
GM's out here on threads, any tips for running a proper Session Zero?

What are your biggest pain points in D&D 5e combat?
In 5e, it seems every class has a wide range of abilities, which overall, I like, but it can slow things down.
Do you think each class has "too much" to do or maybe it's an issue of how it's presented & organized?

Want to throw a dumb joke into your D&D campaign? Here's the dumbest one of all 🤣
This is probably the silliest thing I've made in a LONG time.
In case it wasn't obvious, I hate this vehicle.
Drive it into the middle of an encounter and have fun!
Feel free to use, re-skin, alter, tear apart 🤘

Give your TTRPG character flaws!
Personality flaws offer a grand range of opportunities for you to truly breathe life into your character.
Playing D&D "optimally", for me, is the quickest way to have less fun.
Roleplay your flaws!
Give yourself room to play & grow🤘🎲

Does your GM have a specific way they begin each session to recap and get everyone back into the swing of things?
My last GM would narrate his recap like the beginning of a DBZ episode and it was awesome 🤘
"Last time on D&D!"

While D&D 3e will always hold a special place in my heart, I think the changes made in 5e have been for the better.
Especially for new players.
Anyone who's played 3e knows the pain of watching the light die in your friends eyes as you begin to explain skill ranks.

What's your starting point for character creation in D&D/TTRPGs?
I like to start visually. Playing with Hero Forge or drawing to spark ideas. The main character concept usually pops into my head during this.

GM's, what are your thoughts on breaking the rules for spell components with monetary values?
If a PC is casting Revivify and wants to use an item of personal significance they consider priceless in place of the typically required diamonds, would you let it happen?

What's your ideal TTRPG party size?
I think 5 players is the magic number.
For me, 5 is nice for variety in party dynamics, good for when there's a vote, and it doesn't hold up combat TOO much.
My first group had 8 players and it was... challenging. 😂

Is it weird I've never once played in or GM'd a premade D&D module over the past 25 years?
No shade towards premades, I just always gravitate towards homebrewing every time.

As convenient as digital is, there's something really wonderful about being able to go back through decades of old maps and notes from ealrier games. How some were intricately planned and others just scribbles & 90% improv.
