56:07|Characters are the lifeblood of TTRPGs, without them, there is no game, and most importantly, characters are what make a TTRPG game actually good. But does that mean all you need is some kind of Joe to play? Not reallyCharacter Concepts are the Outline of your character, they're a phrase, an image, something that really sparks that idea of the character for not just you, but mainly you! But how do we come up with good concepts? Or more directly, what makes a concept for a D&D Character even good?Check here for all further information:You can find us on the Web under these Links: https://www.doubledm.com/ https://bsky.app/profile/doubledm.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/doubledmpod/?hl=de https://ko-fi.com/doubledmIf you want to reach out to us via E-Mail use: doubledmpod@gmail.comOur Midroll Music is"Midnight Tale" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Our Outro Music is"Ascending the Vale" Kevin MacLeod (imcompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Structuring Your One Shot the right way

We have done so in the past, but never focused on the structure of one-shots around pacing, build-up, planning, and executing the one shot.

They're much more influential and bigger than NPCs, but oftentimes they also don't take as big a role as these NPCsThey are, after all, groups of NPCs, today we discuss creating easy factions and how to make them matter at your tables to create the effect that all of these factions are useable for.Check here for all further information:You can find us on the Web under these Links: https://www.doubledm.com/ https://bsky.app/profile/doubledm.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/doubledmpod/?hl=de https://ko-fi.com/doubledmIf you want to reach out to us via E-Mail use: doubledmpod@gmail.comOur Midroll Music is"Midnight Tale" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Our Outro Music is"Ascending the Vale" Kevin MacLeod (imcompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
