Special: The DM's Well of Inspiration, Part II
Monday Aug 26, 2019
Monday Aug 26, 2019
It's almost inevitable--one day, the DM's well of inspiration will run dry. Or perhaps you're a new DM, and feel daunted by the task that lies ahead? Either way, in this special episode we offer some places from which you can draw inspiration in coming up with ideas.
In this episode, we share our memories of our recent family trip to Germany. We got to see some magnificent, inspirational places that are simply fuel for fantasy role-playing games! Throughout the week, check out our Twitter and Instagram pages for pictures and videos we'll share.
In particular, we'll talk about:
The lovely university town of Heidelberg, and its gorgeous old town main street
Neuschwanstein, the lovely and graceful castle built through a mad king's fancy
Rothenburg, a fantastic walled medieval city, perhaps the best-preserved in the world
Heidelberg Castle, which still keeps a watchful eye over the town below
Neuleiningen, the castle and village that captured Rhett's young imagination and was a completely serendipitous find
Schwetzingen Gardens, the impressive formal display complete with fanciful buildings tucked away in each corner
There was lots for us to see and do, but we couldn't do it complete justice in this brief episode. If you have questions about a place, please send them our way!
And if you like what you hear, please take a moment to leave us a five star rating on iTunes--it will help connect us with other gamers.

Creation Corner: Languages
Monday Sep 02, 2019
Monday Sep 02, 2019
Special: Thane and Rhett talk about a project Thane's been working on. Languages are given lip service in D&D, but what happens if you want to showcase this aspect of your game? Listen in for some pointers on how to start to include a language of your own creation at your table. We hope you enjoy this little episode, and we're starting to gear up for the beginning of our next season!
In this episode we mention two free online services that can help you start to build your own language:
Etymonline is an etymological dictionary that focuses on where words come from. Great for satisfying your own curiosity, but also helpful in figuring out how to create word histories in your own devised language!
Thane introduces Awkword, an automated tool that generates words based on letters you provide.
Conlangery, a current podcast dedicated to discussing the mechanics of creating your own language. At well over 100 episodes, there's plenty to keep your brain going!
Do you want to make your own language? Give it a shot, and let us know how it's going!

Creation Corner: The People of the Language
Monday Sep 09, 2019
Monday Sep 09, 2019
Special: Thane and Rhett continue their discussion about the Witani language project Thane's been working on. A language thrives when people speak it, so this week we talk about the Witani, the imaginary warriors who live freely in vast, open spaces and tend to their herds of hardy horses.
In this episode we mention a couple things you may want to turn to for inspiration:
Skyrim has an atmospheric, adventurous soundtrack. You've likely heard it before, but man--it's worth another listen, especially as you build your next adventure! Thane particularly mentions the thematic music around the city of Whiterun.
We're both fans of the style and look of the Rohirrim from the Lord of the Rings. The movies do a great job of bringing this people based on the Anglo-Saxons to life. For some inspiration, check out the look of their armor and the artistic styling of their buildings.
Thane's work has led to a couple fun episodes that have really stretched our understanding of language and has led our thoughts in new directions. Thank you!

Special: Texts of the Jewels - From The Vashundinaya
Wednesday Nov 06, 2019
Wednesday Nov 06, 2019
Toward the beginning of our journey together, Tira, Bash, and Peter found an ancient text that pointed them to the four Jewels of Edelenn, cities of learning that contained more information to help fight against a growing evil in the world of Vardalon.
The fourth Jewel was the Red Castle in the Clouds, an ancient, abandoned fortress on a stone hill. It was once the center of a thriving city, but now lies in the midst of the lush jungles of Rahajmanath. After a tense chase, challenging puzzles, and a terrible ordeal, the party discovered the text surrounding the base of a stone altar atop a pyramid.
This special episode provides the text in a standalone format for easy reference. Here's the text:
From The Vashundinaya
Hymn I – Ramena-bindalar
1 We hailed the light and sang its glory in olden days, 2 the light that once was whole but now is wrapped in dark, 3 for evil came and split it, though not without first causing harm to itself, 4 then giant pieces from the stars fell, three and three and three but one, 5 falling to this world and driving out before them the song that once infused all life, 6 the inner life ripped out even though the outer life remained. 7 For we who saw, for we who lived in this day, we wept; 8 we are but shadows in a darkened room, mere ghosts. 9 To truly live once more we must hope for the two to be restored.
Hymn II – Unadeva
1 Sing to me, my love—distract my sadness with memories, 2 or tell me where they lie, these godly shards, that I may desire no more. For in my mind your words have woven a cloth of red and yellow and blue, 4 these three and three and three but one that mean so much to us. 5 Well-scattered did they fall, and at their touch the world writhed; 6 to heal the break will mean pain before it ever means comfort. 7 So come to me now, beloved; I will fill your nostrils with perfume 8 even as you fill my ears and my heart. 9 Spin your tale—make my mind light once more.
Hymn III – Ramena-bindalar
1 Hear then, beloved. They fell, the three and three and three but one. 2 Of the light, one came to Kazara, a jungle land far to the east, 3 one rested in the golden sands of Kashara, a land that dwells in the very gate of the rising sun. 4 One fell in Daranda in the high lands north of us, where—laugh not, for it is truth—water turns to stone. 5 The last of the light we could not find—a fitting picture. 6 Of the dark, two brothers fell, one far north and east, in Randaz of the sky-reaching mountains. 7 Its twin came down not far to the south in Bindaida, a high place and remote. 8 The third fell to the center of this vast land, buried well. 9 The last of the dark we could not find—a fitting picture. 10 Now the tears fill my eyes and steal my voice. My tale is all too brief. I sorrow that I could not entertain you longer, my love.
Hymn IV – Unadeva
1 Alas, these places are all so far away. 2 Are you a prince of merchants that you can travel to them all, to sate your heart with looking on them? 3 Great peril, it seems, would be your lot, indeed the lot of any, who travel to such far-flung reaches, 4 where wild beasts dwell and the very land devours those who walk it. 5 The shards of divinity will always be out of reach, and we are forever changed. 6 Now is my despair darker than before. 7 Do you see my tears that flow for the music that has departed? 8 Yet well I know this tale is brief, nor could I blame your telling of it. 9 Be still, my love, and let us sleep, for only there will we find forgetfulness.
