You’ve got a group together, you’ve picked a TRPG, now it’s time to run a session 0! Whether you’ve run one before and are looking for more tips or have heard the term floating around and want to know more, Maddie is here to run you through everything you should cover before jumping into an adventure in your chosen roleplaying game. From setting clear expectations, to covering safety tools, and making your players work for you, there’s a lot more to the meetup than just creating a character. Obviously snacks, snacks are very important. This is Maddie’s ultimate session 0 checklist for Dungeons & Dragons and beyond, but let us know what you always cover in yours in the comments below too!
