DnD Worlds: Guide to Dark Sun (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dark Sun is one of the most brutal, strange, and unforgettable campaign settings in Dungeons & Dragons history. In this episode of Roll For Lore, we dive into the world of Athas, the post-apocalyptic setting introduced for AD&D 2nd Edition in 1991. We cover the rise of the sorcerer-kings, the Cleansing Wars, Rajaat, defiling magic, the destruction of the natural world, and how Athas went from a lush planet to a deadly wasteland beneath a crimson sun. We also explore what everyday life is actuall
DnD Gods: Tharizdun (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Tharizdun doesn't get a chapter in most Forgotten Realms books. He gets a footnote, a whisper, and a very large lock.

DnD Gods: Wee Jas (opens the original)
Read excerpt
She's been in print since 1983. She made it into the 3rd Edition Player's Handbook deity list. She survived the Edition Wars and she's still in the current game. And if you asked a hundred D&D players to tell you one thing about her, most of them couldn't. This week Jess drags Wee Jas out of the Greyhawk footnotes and makes the case that the goddess of magic, death, vanity, and law is one of the most underused deities in the entire game. On paper those four portfolios look like a grab bag. In pr
