Yep. We try to keep the Lorecast to 4 people, so 2 of the regular hosts stepped aside. I'd already talked to Brian and Zac on Mastering Dungeons, so I recused myself.

No he isn't. I just had a long talk with him. ;-)

In general Teos and I record on Mondays, and the podcast/YouTube releases on Wednesday mornings. This is the schedule about 95% of the time. I am not exactly sure of how access to Teos's "Alphastream" Discord server works, but I do know that there are some great designers and experienced GMs and...

I don't grumble. I whine! ;-) And I completely understand why WotC doesn't get rid of alignment, ability scores, and other aspects of the game that add very little to the game play (in my opinion). If I was a marketing person worrying about upsetting long-time players who don't want to see...

Thanks for the shout-out! To be clear to anyone who may watch, we're going to be doing this for several weeks, but one thing we aren't doing with these episodes is do a deep dive into "the history of the people who created the setting." We took a couple of weeks to do an overview of the...

On behalf of Ghostfire, thanks for those who’ve been supportive of this news. I started working there in January of 2021, and so much hard work and sacrifice by so many have gone into our products. With the help and support of our audience and fans, we’ve been able to keep the company afloat...

It was a pleasure to work with you and Greg on this!

Fear not! I have been called much, much worse things. By my own family. On my birthday.

During the Grim Hollow: The Monster Grimoire kickstarter, one of the stretch goals was "Lairs of Etharis," a book of 20 lairs covering short adventures covering levels 1-20. The new D&D Beyond offering includes all those lairs, plus supplementary material to support them. So that's 75 new...

Hey Dave, thanks for helping spread the word on this. For the last several years I've been interested in finding ways to bring new players and DMs, and especially younger players and DMs, into the game. Getting asked to work on this projects was a great opportunity to take at least one step in...

That first statement is definitely true! OK, let me try to answer your question honestly. Kickstarter is its own animal, and there is so much that needs to go right to have a Kickstarter that simply funds, much less one that explodes. Just one thing going wrong with the Kickstarter can make it...

It is definitely the incredible beauty of its Executive Lead Designer. Whoever that might be....

We also provided a playthrough of the Raiding mechanics via YouTube () if you're interested in seeing them in action.

The plan is currently to publish under Creative Commons unless our lawyer provides us with information that makes that move unwise.

Hey MarkK! Thanks so much for the kind words. We've poured so much of our hearts, souls, and magic into getting Grim Hollow into the hands of players, and your appreciation means the world to us. We've got more in store for Etharis--and our other RPG and board game offerings--in the coming...

Thanks for all the great feedback. As one of the writers on the book, and as someone who has worked in the Realms on official products for more than 10 years, I took great care in ensuring that everything in the book that I wrote or edited or developed made sense in the Realms, regardless of...

Some things I don't know and some things I can't talk about, but this article's Q&A section, along with what was said at the PAX East panel last week, sums things up pretty nicely on the Penny Arcade side...

Well, wishes do come true, because it isn't. As was reported in many places, this was something that Penny Arcade worked on and was going to publish on their own. WotC heard about it and asked to see it, then offered to act as the publisher. This was not something that replaced a book WotC was...

Dan Dillon is an incredible RPG mind, a hard worker, passionate about the game and the hobby, and a perfect fit for the position. If you want to see more of his work (or any designers' works), RPGGeek.com is a great site: https://rpggeek.com/rpgdesigner/71499/dan-dillon

I wish I could talk about it more, but that is the prerogative of the wonderful and talented Penny Arcade team. Writing for the book was one of the highlights of my career so far, and like everyone else, I am looking forward to the release of more information about the product. You can be sure...
