Welcome back to DMNastics, the gym for Dungeon Masters to work out their minds.

I'm one of your hosts, DM Neal, aka Joke Moniac, and I have another proud block party podcast network member,

and I will call them my co-host because they will do just as much, if not more than I will

for the episode. But I will let them introduce themselves. Hi, I'm Kurt and I am from

Dungeons and Dragons and Daughters. I am the dungeon master on that show and the daddy for most

of the players on that because that's uh that's we

play with my daughters when we play dungeons the dragon so for this i could be dm kurt's

instead of daddy or just kurt there you go boom dm kurt aka you'll figure it out and we're

going to tie back to episode number 164 co co-dungeon mastering, which featured you,

because that's what I like to do.

The inspireception, as it were.

And that led to the creation of D-Mnastics 135 missed connections.

But before we jump into too much, I want to give a huge shout out to Captain Dialup,

who actually kind of came up with the start of the idea, and then Roerick and I kind of fleshed it

out a little bit more and threw it up on the forums. Captain Dialup is a fantastic name.

Yes. And they have a hilarious, angry-looking Dragonborn, I think, as their avatar, which is wonderful.

So I think one of the inspirations for this was to kind of have, you know, and if you're thinking

about Code Dungeon mastering, an NPC that I make up could be wildly different than the

NPC. Let's say you made up, Kurt. So we're kind of trying to get

those skills in order by just one person makes up an NPC and how does your NPC tie back to that?

So let's just, we'll just jump right into it. Like, how did you want to tackle this one? I know we're

going to go through kind of the forum content and then jump into making our own.
