What Your D&D Villains Are Missing (Patreon)

Creating a great D&D villain is more than just giving a mook more hit points and a bigger weapon. Villains should be created with as much care--if not more--than D&D player characters. They should get a villainous backstory, motivations, personality traits, lairs, and more. Each D&D villain should be a fully-realized character in their own right, so that there's plenty for the heroes to hate or pity, for them to oppose, and for you (the Dungeon Master) to portray.

In this video, I go through the steps to create a compelling villain for your game. If you come up with a villain concept, drop a comment about them down below!
