For the Dungeon Master

One of the most revolutionary things about Neverwinter Nights is the inclusion of a special piece of software, called the DM Client, that allows a game player to become the organizer of a Neverwinter Nights module and campaign. This position is called the Dungeon Master (DM) in D&D terms. He or she controls all other aspects of the game except for the other players- the monsters, the encounters, and the other characters in the adventure.
