    S1E0.5 Character Creation

    After having created the world in the first episode of the new campaign, now we create our main characters.

    Apologies for the slightly lower quality on this one- somebody forgot to save their local audio and it was me (Ben) but I've tried to tidy it up from the video version and I think it worked out alright.

    Season 4/CDS Post Mortem - Spoilers!

    Spoiler Warning- this contains spoilers for the entire show! Do not, on any account, start here!

    This is the audio of our Season 4/Entire Crudely Drawn Swords post-mortem. It is barely edited, Stuart was increasingly drunk as the session went on and we were all dressed "smartly" but you can't really hear that on the audio. You will get to hear all our coughing, opening bottles, rustling around and other nonsense that normally gets edited out, though. After all, what are you going to do? Stop listening to the show???

The best DND podcast!!

I found this pod after listening to TAZ and decided to give it a try and was so glad I did. It is by far the best pod I’ve ever listened to in this genre it was a little slow to start but I’m so glad I stuck with it.

The GM is an incredible story teller and has taken the most finite details from past episodes and wrapped them perfectly into the final season and ending. The characters/players are hilarious and great to listen to, their banter may be my favorite part with all of the bloopers cut in to the very end of the episode. Also the music throughout is absolutely incredible, it underscores every scene perfectly.

I’m very sad it’s finished but all shows must end eventually and I’m so grateful for the work they put in to nail the landing on the ending of the show.

The Best DW actual play!

For those new to dungeon world, like me, this is a great podcast to learn the system from; including inspiring examples of creating rules for your own campaign.
