DnD Dungeon Master Screen 5e

Print them, fold them, stand them up. Or keep them flat beside you — they work either way.

🗂️ WHAT IS ON THE FIVE PANELS

▪ 🎯 CHECKS, COVER AND LIGHT — the six difficulty numbers · all 18 skills grouped under the ability they use · passive checks · advantage and disadvantage in one line · the three levels of cover with what each one actually gives · what dim light and darkness do to a roll

▪ ⚔️ THE TURN AND THE FIGHT — what a turn is made of · all 10 actions explained in one line each · and the six things a player will ask you mid-fight: opportunity attacks, grapple, shove, two-weapon fighting, critical hits, and attacking something you cannot see. Death saves written out so nobody argues about them at 0 hit points, plus all 13 damage types

▪ 🩸 CONDITIONS — all 15 of them, one line each, and the six levels of exhaustion in their own table

▪ 🥾 TRAVEL, MOVEMENT AND HARM — travel pace by minute, hour and day · both kinds of rest · falling, suffocating and difficult terrain · long jump, high jump, climbing, swimming and squeezing

▪ 🔮 OBJECTS, MAGIC AND EXPERIENCE — what an object takes to break, by substance and by size, with the two rulings that always come with it · experience by challenge rating from 0 to 20 · and the spellcasting numbers a table asks for: save DC, spell attack, concentration and ritual casting

🕯️ WHO IT IS FOR

A first-time DM who does not want to stop the evening to find a number.

And a DM of ten years who is tired of the one page that never has the table on it.

✨ THIS IS FOR YOU IF

▪ You keep reaching for the book mid-fight for the same six rulings every session

▪ You want a dnd dm screen you can print tonight, not wait for in the post

▪ You already own a 4-panel screen with empty sleeves to fill

▪ You would rather have the conditions in front of you than in an index

▪ You are running your first game and want the numbers where you can see them

▪ You want something for the DM in your life that costs less than a takeaway

🕯️ ONE GOOD EVENING

Games for a table, and for a chair by the fire.
