Welcome, brave adventurers
… to the twelfth entry into the Heroes Rise chronicle. This episode was recorded on Saturday, 17th February 2018, and made available for download on Wednesday, 21st February 2018 at heroesrisepodcast.com
In this week’s Adventurer’s Pack, Lennon gives us a tool for making pornog– I mean, maps. Next, we take a look at some D&D News as we cover:
- D&D Beyond’s videos on Halflings and Dwarves
- The latest Unearthed Arcana on going where no one has gone before
- And we answer a frustrated DM’s letter about metagaming
After that we take a Short Rest with our Adventurer’s Journals for some tips on party composition; before finishing off the show by looking into the Scrying Pool to see what you have to say.

This Week’s Community Questions
Do you have any advice for our Frustrated DM on discouraging player knowledge and metagaming?
And do you ever take your players into the wild? Do you believe that raw exploration can be an engaging part of a campaign?
What’s your take on Random encounters: entertaining diversions or annoying breaks in the adventure?
