In this episode, the DM Duo checks some applications and follows up on some references as they go over backgrounds in the PHB. They discuss how backgrounds can be used to help new players flesh out a fresh character, how dungeon masters can use them to breathe more life into a setting, and how an odd pairing can make for a good story. Then they talk about all the exciting developments heading their way for 5e, including but not limited to WE’RE FINALLY GETTING SPELLJAMMER AFTER 33 FREAKING YEARS
