@kikoteaa: I ENCOURAGE EVERY PLAYER TO KEEP SECRETS FROM THEIR DM- BUT IF YOU BURST OUT WITH A RANDOM “oh i was raised by a god” or something, RUN IT BY YOUR DM/GM FIRST PLEAAAAASE 🙏🙏 #fyp #foryoupage #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #dndtok #dndmemes #dungeonmaster
Do NOT keep secrets from your DM. If your DM doesn't know it, it's not canon.

Ryan Olmsted :
I mess with my DM by adding inconsequential details to my character that affect nothing but throw him off. Like in a Star Wars camapign when I mentioned I had a distant cousin in the Jedi order.

Grim :
The only secrets that I keep are things I come up with on the spot for roleplaying moments: like "oh thanks for the orange but i'm actually like super allergic"

Only time to keep “secrets” from the dm is if it is ultimately unimportant to the story. Dm should have full knowledge about who your character is and does

don't keep secrets from the dm, who else is going to scream with you at gut wrenching lore that'll hit like a freight train at the exact right time

Riley/Lizzie :
The only thing I haven’t told my dm yet is something I thought of after a few sessions, it’s not world changing and it’s just one of my characters motivations for being a Cleric.

couldn't be me, I sent a 7 page backstory of my quite young character
and he used my backstory against me! I loved it

Night Of Fallen Star 🍉 :
minor things are OK to keep from the DM - my character (cleric) recently opened up to a party member about what it was like having been forsaken and thrown out from the church they were raised in 1/

Ithil :
I helped one of my players create her backstory which involved a deal she made... I reveal this in the campaign amd she turns around and says her character has no memory of this...
say what now??

honestly, dumping plot changing lore on the DM in the middle of a session as a surprise is like your charakter "suddenly" dying as a surprise by the DM.

LoopyLouLife :
I lay a rough foundation for my back story and let my dm go crazy with the details that can be revealed to me down the line. for example my next character doesn't know her real parents

Words to live by for EVERY dnd player: you can keep backstory secrets from other players, BUT YOU NEED TO TELL THE DM. IF THE DM DOESN’T KNOW, ITS NOT CANON AND DIDN’T HAPPEN.

Dayum :
Made a detailed backstory, gave it to my dm and said ‘feel free to change stuff so it fits the lore!’ TELL ME WHY HE MADE MY CHARACTER THE SON OF AN ANCIENT KING WITHOUT TELLING ME

As a DM tell me the big stuff!!! Tiny stuff is fine though! (Except my one player who kept giving me tiny stuff until I was like "ARE YOU JESUS???")

For me it was the opposite - I didn’t realise my character was the child of the villain and the NPC we had for a while in our party until my DM was yelling it at me “WHY CANT YOU SEE IT”

Confused_Entity :
None of my players got a backstory but my character who is named “The Bird” had a wife and kids and it could be casually dropped into the convo without consulting the dm bc I was offered the 1-

i think *certain* lore should be hush hush if it’s small and simple. but the lore elaborate and bigger things definitely need to run by the DM.

there was a problem player at my table once, who was refusing to enter the forest needed for a quest, and after a wasted hour he finally explained that apparently his whole clan was killed in a forest

I didn’t hide it from my DM, but my DM full on didn’t read my backstory and found out my character was SA’d by their mentor ✨after the mentor captured her in a net cause she wouldn’t go back with him✨
