Setting up your Young Heroes Dungeon Master Profile

Tips for setting up your DM Profile on Young Heroes

Written by Mandycore the Manticore

Your Game Master profile is one of the first things players see before booking a game. A complete, high-quality profile helps players feel confident booking with you.

How Do I Get to My Dungeon Master Profile?

  1. Go to Profile

  2. Click Young Heroes in the top left



Fill Out Everything On Your Profile

Make sure that every section of your Young Heroes Dungeon Master profile is filled out.

The more information guardians have, the better they can get to know you and your ability to run games for kids and teens.



Choose a Great Profile Picture

Your profile picture is one of the most important parts of your profile!

You must use a photo of yourself. You should be centered and upright in the image. You should be the only person in the photo, and the image should be high resolution.

  • Make sure the image is:

    • High quality

    • Well-lit

    • Not blurry or grainy

Bright, clear photos tend to perform better than dark or low-quality images.


Customize Your DM Link

  1. Click Share Your Profile

  2. Customize your link (use your DM name, or a brand name!)

  3. Click Create Link

📌 Tip - if you change your link, your old link will no longer work! You'll need to resend a new link to everyone who had your old one.



Sections Unique to your Young Heroes Profile

There are a few sections on your Dungeon Master profile that only appear on Young Heroes:

Meet the DM Video

You can add a short video introducing yourself to parents & players.

This component uses only Youtube video links. Just copy the URL from the browser and add it below. Do not use the “embed” code.

Your experience

Add and describe your experience working with kids.

Include examples of your experience that make you a great DM for kids & families! This could include things like education, teaching, coaching, DMing for kids, etc.


What does my profile look like to a player?

Your DM Profile shows potential players the information you filled out about yourself as a DM, as well as:

  • Your reviews

  • Your number of years on StartPlaying

  • Your number of games hosted

    • Games hosted only counts your paid games hosted on StartPlaying.

  • 3 tags that guardians have rated you highly for
