GM Roundtable Redux
- Need multiple session zeroes!!
- Good idea to do character creation together so they can have interpersonal relationships
- Character session with each PC, then together is also a good idea
- The group needs to have a cohesive identity!
- "What kind of game do you wanna play? What inspires you? What are you excited about?"
- Give each PC the opening moment!
- Connection to world (goals, desires and enemies) is essential
- Asking PCs right before you start so they can give you a summary
- Making your own world is easier than sticking to a campaign book! says Matt
- Put an apostrophe on it! (Nirdal'poc.... vax'ildan... etc)
- Matt hates the idea of one person owning a world so he shared it with Brennan and Aabria :3 (lov u matty)
- Collabing on DMing and worldbuilding is amazing and exciting!! And sometimes you get a chroma spa and a casa bonita (LMAO)
- Irreverance is healing, profundity and absurdity go hand in hand
- "My job today is to come up with 30 fake wizards"
- It's a fun logic matrix / puzzle to figure out how all the different cities and societies fit together
- They called Matt 'Story Dad' 🥺
- Exandria started with one town, Stilben and it slowly and organically grew and grew until the world became Exandria
- Lore is disjointed in some classic fantasy and the logic breaks often, that was important for Matt to make sure it all fit in together
- New players don't know boundaries so you take wider swings and it's wonderful, and then you fall in line and then over time you go back to being your crazy young self
- Game MASTER creates a hierarchy but it's a reverse hierarchy, you're there to serve your players like a genie granting a wish or a cook making food for people
- Lucien was hot bc Taliesin made Molly hot (scREAMS) and Matt made him naked bc he just wanted to
- DM life hack: Othello token for HP points esp when battling a ton of mobs
- Theatre of the Mind is fun because anything is possible! Anything could be in there! Maps can limit the imagination
- Spacing out and talking to yourself as you develop lore or characters in the bathroom is a Totally Normal DM thing that happens often
- Bathroom Buddies (tm)
- Limited stories (like D20 etc.) without limiting characters? cleverly improvised rails where DM and player end up on the same rails to get the experiences they both want, story beats (brennan), modular lore and dont lock lore info behind dice rolls bc it halts the story, momentum always need to be going forward (matt), players who are good storytellers can get it and go for it if you cue them up for 3 act structure bc of prior knowledge from reading books and watching movies etc (aabria)
- What's your fave GM snack *insert angry Brennan monologue here* and also it's almonds
Matt blaming Taliesin for the hotness of Lucien . . .
Sure, Matthew, but explain them, then:
Currently want to live in the universe where Aabria, Matt, and Brennen have a podcast called “Bathroom Time with Three DMs”. Or something.
matt mercer just called out the entirety of the fandom for the thirsty hoes we all are oh my god
“no that’s the audience. i don’t make villains hot, i make villains, and the audience makes them hot.” SIR OKAY i didn’t to feel attacked like this i’m sweating

Brennan’s “And I’m Not Sorry” is Asmodeus’s “And I Didn’t Do Anything Wrong”
Genuinely want to capture and frame this entire gm conversation about how tragedy and hilarity, and deep meaning and absurdities all go hand in hand. "on the day of death, people will need to poop." "sometime nature heals a little stupid, but it does heal." irreverence as a sign of hope! things get terrible and sometimes that makes things funny! because its gotta be! there's death and everyone else is normal and also completely abnormal because of it. delirious laughter. laughter without reopening wounds. sometimes things are so meaningful and also just so fucking weird.
this is a great convo. i want it to go on forever.
(also, specifically EEAAO as the example of profundity and absurdity being deeply in love. yes. "the world is very profoundly meaningful and deeply silly.")
Brennan like you can play any class but please do not have achieved self-actualization
