FLAVOR TEXT: Dungeons & Dragons
Episode description
You enter a room, extinguished candles smolder upon sconces that fill the dark alcoves all around you. Your vision is limited unless you have darkvision. Do any of you have darkvision? Oh you do? Oh you all do? Never mind, you see everything just fine but in greyscale. Also, the door was actually a mimic. The carpet is a mimic too. Roll initiative.
We gather in this nameless tavern today to dive into the history, deep lore, and fun knowledge bits of Dungeons & Dragons. Join us as we discuss the origin of the world's greatest roleplaying game, the differences in prior editions, a discussion into just how fantastic of a character the Raven Queen is, and ending with a fun game of "Is it a D&D Adventure Module or is it a Quest from a Video Game?"
Special thanks to our favorite 20-sided dice rolling agent of chaos, "@whomstrodomus" for commissioning today's episode. If you're interested in commissioning your own FLAVOR TEXT, come check out our patreon at patreon.com/debatethiscast.
