Dungeon Monitors
A Dungeon Monitor, or DM is a trained safety expert in many common forms of BDSM that is assigned by the venue owner or event host. Generally they are well-respected, well-vetted members of the community who walk the dungeon(s) at events to ensure rules are being followed, nothing patently unsafe is occurring and that consent is being respected. They keep a trained eye on various scenes and observe to help ensure that everyone is safe.
