In this immersive three-hour workshop, TTRPG veteran Amy Vorpahl teaches you how to Dungeon Master with confidence, flexibility, and your creative identity intact.

You’ll identify your personal DM touchstones and put them into practice through guided performance exercises. Learn a clear framework for adapting prepared material on the fly, maintaining momentum without railroading, and making decisive calls that keep the story moving.

This class emphasizes being over optimizing—no rules lawyering, no critique-heavy feedback—just practical tools you can use at your very next table. Participants will both DM and play, gaining experience from multiple perspectives.

Be sure to catch her one-woman D&D musical She's Got NPC Energy: The Musical the night before, April 10th at 7pm!

And, her special guest appearance in Roll Play: An Improvised Adventure April 10th at 9pm!
