Heroes Rise, eighth entry: Recorded in 1d6 takes

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.

Our adventure has now ended, and we've hung up our robe and wizard hats to enjoy our retirement on the Sword Coast, running a tavern where a fresh band of adventurers may meet and start quests of their own. We're still around on Discord, and you should come and join the Heroes Rise community at http://discord.heroesrisepodcast.com
