As you finish the final word of the lengthy monologue from an important NPC, you hear a shout from across the table: “INSIGHT CHECK!”. You roll your eyes as they proceed to roll their dice, add their modifier and tell you their score. The frequency of call-out skill checks really depends on the players at your table and your style as a Dungeon Master.
Dungeon Mastering is a hobby which can end up costing quite a bit of money. If you are a collector, like me, you are constantly trying to acquire anything you think will improve your game. There is a whole library of books you “need” to have, along with your dungeon tiles, an entire dragon’s hoard worth of minis, a DM screen, a custom initiative tracker, a dice tower, a D&D Beyond subscription, and the countless other resources you find to help run your game.
