This week… you’ve seen em, you know em, you’re familiar with em, we’re talking about Tropes! These familiar themes can be found throughout storytelling. Hero’s Journey? Ever heard of it!? Listen gang, at the end of the day TTRPGs are about telling stories. Recognizing and discussing tropes can help Dungeon Masters in as many ways as there are tropes!

Ep.125 - Tome of Beasts (Kobold Press)

This week, we are taking a look at Kobold Press’s Tome of Beasts. I’ve mentioned it a ton on the podcast and have used its stat blocks in many of our actual plays.
