Your DM runs the D&D game you’re playing. The rules don’t run the game.

Your DM runs the D&D game you're playing.

The rules don't run the game. My rulings don't run the game. Your DM does.

And that game is a co-op game, all about creating a mutually fun experience for the people at the table.

Work to bring smiles to one another's faces. #DnD

Also, players: Work together to bring pizza to the game table. A hungry DM is a killer DM. https://t.co/V1WXAgqsNT

No lie, I try not to eat and DM at the same time. Too distracting. Maybe I am just weird…. I feel you on that. I stuff my face while the players are doing their thing, but usually try to eat ahead of time.
