Knowledge vs. Experience: How to Make D&D Character Grow Realistically

Welcome to How to Be a Better DM! Your host, Tanner Weyland, along with guest host Cayden Ottley, explore an important question: How can you make player characters experience growth in an interesting and earned way when they often enter an adventure with highly experienced backstories? Can every hero have a zero-to-hero moment if they automatically come into an adventure as ex-master thieves, army commanders, or incredibly wise wizards? Well, we help you out so you can give your players a more fulfilling growth arc.
