What are Prep Materials?
Prep materials are any links or materials that your players need in order to participate in your game.
Examples of Prep Materials include:
A link to your Discord server
A link to your D&D Beyond campaign
A link to your Foundry server
A link to your Lines and Veils survey, or a consent form
Documents you need players to read before the game
Why are Prep Materials required?
All games on StartPlaying are required to have prep materials. If your players do not have their prep materials, they will not be able to fully participate in your game.
For example, if players never get the link to your Discord server where you host your sessions, there is no way for them to actually participate in the game.
It is up to you as the GM to make sure your players have what they need to join the game.
Where do I add my Prep Materials?
