Dungeon Master of None

TEASER for our July patron episode: 🐉🐉🐉 Have you talked with your players about Dragonology? We are here to help! It's a dive deep into one of our favorite supplements from 3e, Draconomicon: The Book of Dragons. Time to think deep about dragon ecology, colors, and metals. Let's put some engaging dragons into your world. 🐉🐉🐉 https://www.patreon.com/DungeonMasterOfNone 

Grab your wands and quills because MAGIC SCHOOL is in session. Inspired by the upcoming release of STRIXHAVEN for D&D, DMs Rob and Matt discuss the stories and pitfalls of using a magical school, college, or university as your campaign. 

Matt and Rob discuss recent book announcements, read a classic Dragon Magazine article, and dig into the biology and behavior of your favorite RPG monsters! Music: Pac Div - Roll the Dice Skillet - Monster Shawn Mendes, Justin Bieber - Monster

It's the Great Railroading Debate! Get your ticket punched and head into our dining car for a discussion of railroading and player agency. Choo choo, Dungeon Masters.  You can access our June patreon reward (and all our patreon rewards) by subscribing now. It's a spooky mythos murder mystery one-shot with coal mines, Yog-Sothoth, snake-handlers, and Egyptology in Appalachia! 

It's time to talk about the train wreck that is the corpse of TSR a.k.a. the "New TSR Games" a.k.a. "Weekend at Ernie's." Matt introduces Rob to the cast of grifters and bigots behind this company before getting to some dungeon master advice on handling difficult spells and introducing new players to the Forgotten Realms. 

Preview of our June 2021 Patreon exclusive episode! Join us at https://www.patreon.com/DungeonMasterOfNone for the full episode for a discussion of DMing for Jack Black, Railroading, playing other systems, and speculation about future D&D releases. 

Our favorite historian, Paul Sturtevant of the Public Medievalist, is back to talk with us about the barbarian and paladin. But first...flails are cancelled! Then, stick around for a great conversation on history, colonialism, Basques, and Smite Evil.  You can read Paul's article on the barbarian here and his short Twitter presentation on the paladin here.  

Rob sits down to talk with Caleb Stokes about his many many many projects, especially his upcoming Kickstarter, Fae's Anatomy!   More links: http://redmarketsrpg.com/ http://slangdesign.com/rppr/ https://arcdream.com/home/ https://www.patreon.com/dgdc https://www.patreon.com/themixedsix  

Our favorite D&D writer from St. Louis (who is NOT a member of the Veiled Prophet ball) is back to share his experience publishing his stuff, writing for larger projects, and running horror games. Alex also takes us into his own personal Domain of Dread: a forever posting war in reactionary D&D Facebook groups.  Links to some of Alex's projects: Ezmerelda's Encyclopedia of Evil Eldritch Sands Kickstart & Eldritch Sands Preview They Want to Be Us: A 5E Adventure

Matt and Rob dive into the actual Domains of Dread -- there's evil carnivals, dangerous games, sewer steampunk, land of the influencers, and more!   Music: Pac Div - Roll the Dice Phantom of the Opera - Masquerade Avatar - Hail the Apocalypse Flesh to Flesh (Night of the Living Dead 2 Theme)
