    Podcast #122: Nazi Dracula Must Die! with Justice Arman

    As someone whose family (close and far) suffered terribly under the Nazi regime I find it distasteful to imply that they where anything but complete Human monstrosities. Anything else implies that they can get off the hook - a Vampire (in D&D) is Evil by nature. Humans are not, they have...

    D&D 5E Mythological Figures: David

    D&D 5E Mythological Figures: David

    Nice write up ... Nitpicks first :) From intro - hit him the forehead - actually poetically written as "sunk/imprint (same word in Hebrew) into his forehead" Pre-eve battle divorce - is a later interpretation not in the scripts (to get him slightly off the hook?) And he might have repented, but...

    The Most Popular D&D Character Name Is "Bob"

    LaYLa - is night in Hebrew (Capitals are consonants, lower case are vowels ) , but Semitic languages are root based so the connection is there. As you said in the Midrash (Post 2nd temple period - 3rd century) she is basicly a Demon. The rest of her stories might not be safe for Noah Gran, so...

    Epic Monsters: Dagon (5E)

    I like bad translations of ancient names ;-) Dagon is a fertile crescents god of Cereal ... or/and Fertility and in some cultures the head of the pantheon. The changing into a Demon is probably due to the usual interaction between Christianity and old Gods... The association with Fish is very...

    "Wold is an Old English term for a forest or an area of woodland on high ground" - so funnily enough actually keeping with in the genre ;-)

    If it really echoes your feeling, it should have been published here... The other companies should have shied away from joining them. Otherwise what's the point of all those editorials?
