How does DnD work????

| i've never played any tabletop games ever, and dnd seemed fun but how does that game work at all??


| You use your >>imagination owo


| The result of anything you do is decided by stats management and the roll of the die. But *what* you do is entirely your >imagination


| Apart from imagination, there's also GM/DM, which helps constructing the story, events, and NPCs of the game. Players are /usually/ limited into controlling their own characters.

This is a very, very basic simplification, of course.


| Pretty much nailed it. One guy story tells er.. makes the world, and players control one person to interact w the world


| Roll dice and hope you get a natty 20 while role playing

Or roll a natural 1 and have fun dodging those arrows.


| First time I played DnD I made my elf character crossdress as a maid and killed a leader of a cult. DnD is fun.


| it doesn't. the DM does all the work (while the players wreck havoc while being high from shrooms)


| I wish ppl in near my area play DnD T^T Looks so damn fun!


| ^
^ You can get them into dnd if they have an open mind about it, or you could do it online


| Check out Roll20 if you wanna try doing DnD online

As a DM, the greatest work I do is just setting up the stage and placing the hapless mooks.

It's up to the players what they do with that setting, although I'm the kind of person that lays traps everywhere and creates consequences that they don't really expect.

Horror settings are bae. ;3


| Dream crazy shit and make a session about it


| so players do shit with their characters, DMs are the storytellers, and the dice???


| >>114965
DMs set the story, players do shit with their characters and screw up the DM big time sometimes, the dice is basically the god of the game and can ruin everyone's day.


| >>114965 the same as the RNG in vg RPGs


| what happens if you roll a 1 or a 2 or what


| >>115503 1 is usually associated with dodging like everything or hitting absolutely nothing


| >>115503
You become the DM's pet until the next turn.
