Welcome, brave adventurers…

… to the eighth entry into the Heroes Rise chronicle. This episode was recorded on Saturday, 13th January 2018, and made available for download on Wednesday, 17th January 2018 at heroesrisepodcast.com

To start us off, we dig into our Adventurer’s Packs and Ostron tells us why we shouldn’t fear the reaper! Then we take a look at some D&D News as we cover:

The latest Unearthed Arcana that offers us a trio of subclasses

Lots of updates applied and coming to the various Neverwinter video games

A couple of videos on lore from editors at WotC

And a new Plane Shift for those who play more than one of Wizards’ games and don’t want to have to choose.

After that we take a Short Rest and hear some Wisdom from the Masters as we bring you the next part of our series on using Weather in your games; before finishing off the show by looking into the Scrying Pool to see what you have to say.

This Week’s Community Questions

The Subclasses Three: have you playtested any of the options in this month’s Unearthed Arcana? What’s your take on the brute’s bonuses, the wizards wackiness and the druid’s mycelial obsession?
