DM Diary: The Night I Tried to Let a Villain Escape
In Session 15 of Voxels & Valor, everything went wrong, at least according to my prep. A villain meant to escape was caught. A chase I wasn’t ready for unfolded. And I felt something I hadn’t before as a Dungeon Master: anger.
This DM Diary explores improvisation, player agency, ego at the table, and what happens when the dice rewrite your plans.
