    How To DM This %$@# And Other Questions When you download and read The Dungeon Land you may be suddenly gripped by its full, ​ ​ beautiful descriptions, surreal atmosphere, and enthralling plotline. You may think to yourself “Oh just they wait, next D&D session heads are gonna roll!”, but wait. We at Perilous Prints feel that a disclaimer is needed, a sort of DM warning, to make sure our little project doesn’t cause unnecessary problems for your play group. To that end we have included this short book; to answer questions, give advice, and aid the DM in running this clever trainwreck. Inside this book you will find all the tables from The Dungeon Land organised into a helpful ​ ​ collection, a quick overview of when quests are obtained by the party, and a Q&A for dungeon masters running this material for the first time. It is requested that the dungeon master read the Q&A prior to running The Dungeon Land because it is not simply a tutorial, but contains ​ ​ necessary information about balancing the module and how to deal with the relevance of its contents to the rest of your game world. On the contrary, the tables and quests are discussed in short hand for the dungeon master who has already familiarised themselves with the module and do not wish to continuously cycle through an 80 page book. Finally I would like to say a few words. To the dungeon master that ‘railroads’ their players along, to the player who rifles through the books for hours finding the rule that will give themselves an edge, to all those who believe that Dungeon and Dragons is about winning and doing what they want; turn back! This is not the dungeon for you.
