Episode description

If you're a dungeon master, you've probably made some homebrew monsters! We've talked about it before, but since then we've designed DOZENS for many books, and we've learned a thing or two! Here's all the best game design advice we have for making your own monsters at the table for D&D and TTRPG. Our Kickstarter for Worlds of Web DM: Weird Wastelands is LIVE NOW! Check it out here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/webdm/worlds-of-web-dm-weird-wastelands?ref=a1or3s
