EVIL exists in the world. It should clearly exist in your D&D World too. This week, R.H. Snow sits in as we discuss why morally grey "evil" is the bees knees according to the modern gaming audience. "Capital E" evil needs to have a prominent place in, and makes your TTRPG session a better game.

Everyone (not Classic Gaming!) wants to be like Matt Mercer and the scripted actors at Critical Role, including Wizards of the Coast! This week we take a look at their new "actual" play and laugh. When we just can't take any more, we run their enhancement "adventure" and it turns into OUR first actual play!

Wizards of the Coast just last month sent out an open "community" survey to help them allegedly steer the ship for Dungeons & Dragons' future... did it mean anything?
