dm-letter

To prepare a D&D confession scene, generate a DM-facing pre-session letter that explains how to hold space for the rite. It provides structured guidance on what to prepare and how to respond to player hesitations.

A DM letter for ritual scenes is pre-session guidance addressed directly to the DM, separate from the module. You need one when running emotionally dense rites or confessions to help prepare your presence and responses.

To end a confession scene without narrating inner state, follow the DM letter's structured flow which outlines how to conclude the interaction safely. It guides your responses to hesitations and scene endings without assuming PC thoughts.

You should save DM notes for a rite or confession scene to the file path adventures/<slug>/dm-letter-<scene-slug>.md. This file requires specific YAML frontmatter and is designed for reuse across sessions.

Yes, you can reuse the DM letter across multiple D&D sessions by dropping it into the adventures/<slug> directory. It supports simple versioning and updates for recurring rites or confessions.

The best way to guide a DM through a rite is using a dedicated DM-facing letter that outlines what to prepare and how to respond to hesitations. It ensures you hold space during the scene without narrating the PC's inner state.
