Episode description

Alignment in Dungeons and Dragons is not something to just tack on to your game as an after thought. This week, Nick and Matt dive deep on what the purpose of alignment is in table top roleplaying games, how it defines the boundaries of play, and how it ultimately improves both the game world and your roleplaying experience. Even games like Vampire: The Masquerade and Vampire: The Requiem have alignment deeply embedded within the core of their settings and mechanics. Don't be like Wizards of the Coast and cast it away in favor of a flavorless, post modern hellscape! Use alignment as fuel for the fire of your imagination and the engine of your game world.Also, don't forget to check out  @cfourcrispy !
