    Ep.28 - Writing an EVIL One-Shot

    Ep.28 - Writing an EVIL One-Shot

    This week, we write another one-shot for someone who donated to a great cause! BUT... this one is a bit EVIL!! The Joester requested a oneshot for a party of evil adventurers. So we discuss evil PCs and come up with a bunch of interesting ways that characters with questionable moral compasses could interact with the world. And great news, it's ambiguous enough that it could fit inside any setting and even apply to characters who aren't evil!

    Ep.27 - 5 Common Mistakes for New Dungeon Masters

    This week, we are talking all about Common Mistakes that New Dungeon Masters make! Remember, they're common and happen all the time. We've probably still do these every once in a while! It doesn't make you a bad DM and some might even be a preference. We just bring up a couple problems that newer DMs run into and different ways one could go about them! 
    Did we forget any? Let's talk about it!

    Ep. 25 - Wizard 101

    Ep. 25 - Wizard 101

    This week we’re covering the quintessential caster, the book loving magician, the studied savant of spells, the Wizard! Characters of this class get their use of magic through hard work and study. They’ve hit the books so they can hit their allies and enemies with a huge variety of spells! So push those glasses up your nose, break out your pencils and paper, and get ready for our last installment of Class for a while. Today, it’s all about the Wizard! 
    What's your favorite school of magic?? And do you agree with Justin that Enchantment magic is more evil than Necromancy??
