Hello friends first time DM here who foolhardily decided to jump into world building rather than running a cookie cutter adventure.

I’m hoping some battle tested dungeon masters could throw me a couple pointers on how you introduce players to your worlds to help flesh out my pages of notes 😅

I dunno but the first thing I do as a player is cast a spell so everyone is naked. That dungeon air really soothes.

Reading your comment from a sauna rn. Life is good.

Imagine the bard convincing the cleric to use create water inside the magma chamber of hell, turning it into a sauna and then trying to seduce the BBEG, only for the paladin to horn in and get laid.

Funtimes.

Well, I do other stuff; like I'm riding my bike in the park, and this policewoman says "Oi! You can't ride your bike on the grass!" and I go "Oh no?" And her uniform falls off, and she goes "Ahh!" and she's trying to cover up, but I've seen everything anyway. And I get on my bike and I ride off. On the grass.
