Hello and welcome to Everyday Dungeon Master! Today my guest DM is Grey. In today’s episode we talk all about Theater of the Mind and how it can be useful and quick way to run a game of D&D. Grey gives us some great tips and tricks on how to run the game, including one of the best tricks which is simply remove distance and replace with time in combat. There are more amazing tips packed inside today’s episode, so I hope you enjoy!

Grey brings us a 2-for-1 special on today’s Monster Spotlight. He starts by bringing the undead, replicating monster known as the Zombie Plague Spreader which is a nasty little creature that packs a punch. He follows it up with a spider from your nightmares, the Trap Door Spider which is a great way to scare low level parties.
