Description

Natural disasters! I personally believe that they're fun and very exciting to add into your game! So today, we're chatting about natural disasters - why they're exciting and how you can begin to add them into your game & create adventures with them. Together with the Discord community chat, we string together an adventure around a volcanic eruption. Topics covered: The first step to including a natural disaster into your game. How to introduce NPCs within the natural disaster adventure. Building up to the disaster. Running the actual disaster & using real world research to make it believable. What happens when the disaster has run its course? Rewarding your player after the disaster has passed. Thinking about the larger & long-term impacts/ramifications of the natural disaster & how to weave them into your campaign. What to do if your players show no interest in the natural disaster adventure. The AnyQuestion App: Stop searching.... start asking.Ask a question, and get video answers from Experts in Health & Wellness, Sports, and more!Join the weekly live podcast recording on the Great GM Discord server - every Thursday at 5pm BST.

I'm Guy from How to be a Great GM! Welcome to our very first podcast! I have been playing TTRPGs, game mastering TTRPGs, teaching, making videos, writing books about role playing and being a great GM for many years and I've seen the channel and the community grow. This roleplaying community is a special one and I am honoured to be a part of it and to have the space and opportunity to contribute in my own way.One of the things that I've learnt doing this is that not any one of us has it all figured out really. There are some questions that I don't know the answers to but we always rally together to find the common place to rest our swords. And on this podcast, that is exactly what we will be doing. We will talk about what's on my mind, what's on your mind and answering your questions on all things TTRPG related. So join me every week as we talk, discover and challenge each other on this podcast.
