Hey all!
Yes, yes... yet another poll and one-word prompt. But Laura, Tony, and I are hard at work on this new neverending dungeon series, so I gotta crank 'em out. This will probably be the last one for a week or so.
I need your help.
The Shrieking Delves are a cave system located deep within the Neverending Dungeon/Dungeon of the Week labyrinth. Beyond its name and relative location, I have no idea what it's about, what's in there, or even the general terrain.

The Dungeon of the Week/Neverending Dungeon/Megadungeon continues! This time, we have the Frozen Mansion of the Drow Queen. I only know the layout of the map and have no earthly idea what is in there. That's where you come in.
In the comments below, leave a one word prompt. I will design a room based on your word.
Rules:
1) One word per patron
2) Keep it clean
3) Nothing too anachronistic
4) No "defenestration"
5) No proper nouns
I look forward to your wor...

The image above shows the current layout for the dungeons that I personally use when playtesting them. However, you are free to combine them any way that you like. Like the o...

A new poll and one-word prompt for you today. This time, the Dungeon of the Week enters the Forlorn Temple of Mash-Dinaxis.
Long after Mash-Dinaxis's fall, the temple remained deserted. Lately, an undead blood-sucking spider has made its lair here.
In addition to the watabou prompt, a huge, 300-foot-deep canyon divides the dungeon into two sections.
Below is a poll with some additional creature types (in addition to the...

I'm gearing up for the next video/live class and I want to know what times work best for you? Below, I've left some options. Pick the one that works best. If you don't plan to attend one way or the other, please don't vote, since I don't want to skew the data for those who do.
The next course will cover the exact steps I take when I start to prep for an adventure.

Now that Hand of the Eight is drafted, it's time for me to start thinking about the next book I want to write outside of our normal content. My goal with this Kickstarter is to have all the content written prior to the Kickstarter's release. so all we have to do is wait for art, formatting, and printing (3-4 months tops)
But I don't know what to do yet!
Below, I've dropped a few ideas I have kicking around. Let me know which one sounds like the most fun to you...

Got a cool new map I'm working on for Dungeon of the Week that I need both some monster ideas as well as one-word prompts.

For a millenium the dungeon of Hari remained deserted. Recently a party of goblinoids rediscovered it, making it their center of operation. The dungeon of Hari is a place of growth of a highly valued specie of mushrooms.

Hey everyone!
Happy July. Hope you Canadians had a great, long weekend, and the Americans here still have all your fingers intact following the holiday. Everyone else, thanks for putting up with our obnoxious patriotism!
Here is your monthly update letting you know what's coming down the pipeline for the DMDave brand this month (and slightly beyond).
Here is everything we have planned to come out this month.
Coming off of Stranger Things 4, I feel it's time I wrote another Metallica-themed adventure.
(No spoilers, but I'm about 99% sure the Duffers wrote that one scene for me.)
If you haven't seen these before, I take the name of a Metallica song and write an event-based adventure around the song title. So far I've written three:
