DM

DM is short for Dungeon Master, the person who supervises safety, order, and compliance with rules within a BDSM–dungeon or play location. This role is not the same as that of a Dominant in a session: a Dungeon Master is a neutral supervisor, often with experience, authority, and knowledge of BDSM etiquette and safety.
