Setting Up a Campaign

Creating a Campaign

1. Click New Campaign from your dashboard
2. Fill in the details:
   • Title — your campaign's name
   • Synopsis — a brief description for your players
   • Setting — the world or setting (Forgotten Realms, homebrew, etc.)
   • World Name — optional custom world name
   • Tone — the campaign's mood (heroic, gritty, comedic, etc.)
   • Cover Image — an optional banner image (auto-optimized to WebP)
3. Click Create Campaign

Inviting Players

1. Go to your campaign page
2. Open the Players panel
3. Click Invite Player and enter their email address
4. The player receives an email invitation with a link to join
5. Once they accept, they appear in your player list

If a player doesn't respond within 48 hours, a follow-up reminder email is sent automatically.

Assigning Characters

After a player joins, they can assign one of their characters to the campaign. The assigned character appears in:

• Session attendance tracking
• The combat tracker (as a PC combatant)
• Party loot distribution
• The campaign dashboard analytics

Co-DM Roles

Share campaign management with another player:

1. In the Players panel, find the player you want to promote
2. Change their role to Co-DM
3. Co-DMs can create and edit sessions, NPCs, encounters, and other campaign content

Campaign Visibility

By default, campaigns are Private. You can make them:

• Unlisted — accessible via share link
• Public — visible on the Campaign Discovery page, where other users can browse and review it

Campaign Templates

Start from a pre-built structure instead of a blank campaign. Templates include suggested sessions, encounters, NPCs, and locations. Available to Dungeon Master tier subscribers.
