Dungeon Master for Hire

Start Leveling Up As a DM

Wouldn’t it be nice to gamify your dungeon master abilities?

In D&D, characters can reach level 20, so why can’t dungeon masters?

We’re happy to tell you that now, you can.

We created the Dungeon Master Level-Up Guide.

It’s a simple tool to gamify your progression to higher and higher levels of dungeon mastering.

It includes Dungeon Master Levels 1 to 20 with associated XP requirements as well as a long list of Dungeon Master activities that will give you XP. Each activity has a Challenge Rating and an XP amount.

In order to level up, all you need to do is find out how much XP you have, find out how much you need and pick activities to try.

You can get the Dungeon Master Level-Up guide for free by going to session0studios.com/newsletter/, sign up for our newsletter and we’ll email you the Level-Up Guide.

Finally, leveling up as a DM can be as fun as leveling up a character.
