How Joshua O'Brien runs games

I am a flexible DM overall. I encourage players to role play and interact appropriately with others at the table. I do not typically allow pvp unless all parties agree during session zero. I focus on collaboration between party members, working towards the group goals.

I prep by

Reading the upcoming chapter, checking maps and notes and reading past notes from the last session
