    In this episode, I spoke with Brian from Fighter Guy Studios! Brian is the creator of The Brains & Brawn Super Simple Table Top Role Play System.  Brains & Brawn is a TTRPG system where the Tale Teller can add various Supplements that build on the system to give more options & ‘crunch’ to the base game, which can be used with every expansion.

    Brian and I went into detail about his setting agnostic system and how in one of his 5e games, one of his players died months before the party even realized.

    Off With His Head

    Off With His Head

    Gary Engler started playing D&D the same way all campaigns start, at a bar! After one of the bar regulars showed Gary and his friends D&D, they later transitioned to playing primarily Pathfinder and Pathfinder 2. In their games, they rotate GMs regularly and are no strangers to character death. However, during one of their challenging encounters, one of Gary's character builds managed to take down the enemy in record time.
