Hey guys! I have had this idea of a dnd adventure inspired by an episode of Burn Notice: players have to infiltrate a smuggling operation and manipulate one of the enemy second fiddles to revealing their stash. I know that this would be an event based adventure but I have not idea how to go...

I recommend Masterplan Masterplan It has a great built in system that helps you create monsters and even does the math for you!

Hey fellow DMs! My party ding'd level 2 last night and for the next little adventure I am thinking about an undead themed one, and I decided I want to incorporate of my favorite little events from Diablo 3, the Jar of Souls (you can watch it here) The point of the battle is to survive a given...

That is a good question :) I think it depends on the rules of the setting you play in, or if the story can justify it. But lets talk the most common settings, so in for example PoL, I dont think a god can born out of faith of worshipers. That being said, its your world so go nuts :) As for the...

Welcome to Enworld :) If you have more drawings or just stories how your game went please share, as a fellow newb DM Im always interested.

Nentir Vale I ran my first game of 4e (and DnD for that matter) last sunday, and I used the default setting. It has a basic outline, and I can make stuff up and add them wherever I like. Its perfect for my Warehouse 13/The Librarian movies style adventures. Players gather magic stuff for a...

I mostly just hit the random button on asmor.com until I hit some items that I liked. I recently got the Rules Compendium and I wanted...

Hey everyone! I will be DMing for a completely new player, but since every one of my players will be away it will be a solo adventure. We talked about a the basics, and he said he wants to play a fighter with a 2 hand weapon. I bought the Red Box (free tokens/cards :)), and once we finish the...

Since I have usually my laptop as a DM screen with Masterplan on to help coordinate combat, I only put a token to my map when the players actually see the monster. It gives them a bit unknown, and more fun^^ As far as I understand it, most of them standard actions, only a couple of them are...

Instead of the DM screen I usually have my laptop open, running Masterplan. If you have a DDI sub it makes life soo much easier as a DM, planning encounters, designing dungeons, and just keeping track of combat. Also you can easily search documents or the character/monster builder if you need...

The Guys at The Totally Rad Show did an unboxing video of the Red Box, with a bit of character creation, check it out: Dungeons & Dragons Starter Kit Unboxing - Rear Shot - StarCraft 2, D&D, and Comic Con wrap-up with The... - The Totally Rad Show (it should start at 26:06)

Help me "spice up" Kobold Hall Greetings! I am also a newbie DM to 4e, and since this is a beginner DM help topic I will ask my question here. I plan to run Kobold Hall as a beginning, or tutorial for 4 players that are completely new to pen-and-paper RPGs in general, and I want to give them...
