The Tavern | How To Write A Dungeons & Dragons Campaign

I will guide you through the process of writing a homebrew D&D campaign. I start by showing you how to craft a concise synopsis and develop compelling character hooks that will inspire and engage your players.

Next, I demonstrate how to write a punchy introduction for the first scene of your campaign, setting the stage for an exciting adventure that will draw your players in right from the start.

I also revisit one of my previous NPCs, explaining how I plan to integrate them into the first encounter of the game.

For those interested in using a Dungeons & Dragons journal to organise your campaign notes and planning, I also provide a brief tour of my journal, showcasing the content I’ve written so far and how I structure it for ease of use.

My homebrew campaign is set in the Tudor era, focusing on the period surrounding the imprisonment of Anne Boleyn, so it has a rich historical backdrop. This video is a valuable resource for anyone looking to create a homebrew D&D campaign, particularly those interested in blending history with fantasy elements.
