Upon entering the tavern you're greeted with the most delicious aroma of sweet buns wafting through the air. Surveying this cozy establishment you see a group of what appear to be pirates yelling and cheering as a half-orc and a halfling locked in an intense arm-wrestling contest with the halfing inexplicably beating the half-orc handedly. As you walk up to the bar you see a dwarven bartender adorned with collection of battle scars covering his exposed arms. The bartender looks up and saunters over and with a raspy voice asks "So wut will 'et be?"

While sitting at the bar enjoying your drink and taking in the exciting scenes unfolding before you in the tavern you're startled with a loud thud! You look over and see a very sweaty halfling cheering victoriously over her half-orc opponent while standing on a table filled with gold. The crowd surrounding the table looks in utter disbelief. Over by the fireplace a bard is singing romantic ballats seducing the man sitting across from him on a cushion. After finally being able to settle down a bit and dry off from the rain, your mind is still filled with many questions that do not yet have answers. But where do you start? Whom should you ask? Suddenly the barmaid softly taps on your shoulder asking, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

Hire a DM

In addition to the items we offer on the Adventurer’s Mart page we also offer our services as DMs. Our DMs are veterans of D&D and have many years of experience both playing and DMing campaigns. The passion we have for D&D is always present and we love to create unique campaigns for every adventure we host. We also offer classes for players who are interested in learning how to DM themselves. Classes are focused on world and non-playable character (npc) building, story-telling, and campaign crafting just to name a few topics. Please see our rates in the table below.

Service Offered Rate Number of Sessions Estimated Total
New Player Advice free unlimited -
DM Classes $50 2-3 $100-$150
One-Shot Campaign $100 1 $100
Regular Campaign $80 8-10 $640-$800

Sessions typically run anywhere from 4-5 hrs. The amount of sessions can vary depending on the players' progression through the campaign. We allow for up to two sessions per week if the DM has enough time slots available.
