INTRODUCTION


This FAQ is a guide to help people with some of the pitfalls of being a DM.
It does not say there is a right or a wrong way to DM apart from the fact
that you should be enjoying it.

Please also read the rec.games.frp.dnd FAQ by Aardy R. DeVarque as that
provides the answers to a lot of general role-playing and AD&D topics, as
well as providing pointers to other role-playing resources.

If you have any criticism, help, advice, comments, questions, ideas, then
send them to: [l--i--r] at [infernal.demon.co.uk]
