Kate Welch & Pat Rothfuss on making characters and the easy way to be a good DM

Another D&D Live 2019 conversation for you! Today it's Kate Welch, Game Designer at Dungeons & Dragons, and Patrick Rothfuss, bestselling author.

Both play characters in the Acquisitions Incorporated universe of games, Kate as Rosie Beestinger in the 'C Team' game, and Patrick as Viari in the core Acquisitions Inc liveplay games.

We discuss the art of making characters and that morphs into a discussion on the easy choices you can make on the path to being a great DM.
