I suspect someone at Wizards HQ has seen all the duet and solo-play products out there and wanted them to do something in that area. We...

I decided to do a podcast episode based on the write-ups I did in this thread. If interested, you can listen wherever fine podcasts are...

I'm honestly surprised they are hyping this aspect so much. Dragon Delves is a very good book, and these "guidelines" might be the...
