Every characters starts with an idea. That idea then turns into a story. That story is what drives your character in game to do stuff! So you gotta come up with a backstory in order to get your adventurers "Why"! But how long should that be?

Everyone has seen the meme about alignment charts. Nine Squares arranged in three rows and three columns. You got Lawful, Neutral, and Chaotic across the top. Then you have Good, Neutral, and Evil along the side. What does that even mean and does it really matter in the end? Why should we care about morale alignments in our fantasy world anyway? Well... maybe you should, maybe you shouldn't. Find out on this episode of Beyond the Tavern Wall!

Your whole campaign builds up to one moment, the epic showdown between your adventurers and the Big Bad they have been chasing since the beginning. This has to be a big moment. It's everything you have been working for. How do you make this fight epic? How do you turn it into an art form?

Everybody has that moment in D&D where something epic is about to happen and then... BOOM! Natural 1! You failed the check, save or even missed the final strike. It can feel horrible, but did the dice betray the story because of that? Is randomness actually not good for D&D?

Everybody loves a good romance! Well... must people do at least. Romance can drive a good story and character development but can it do more harm than good?

Everybody loves a good redemption story! But does every character deserve to be redeemed? Was Darth Vader redeemed at the end of Return of the Jedi? Was Snape redeemed at the end of Harry Potter? Join us as we discuss redemption arcs on this weeks episode of Beyond the Tavern Wall!

Every player wonders at one point in their adventuring career, "What would my adventurer do if they were evil?". Would they be the ultimate BBEG of a campaign or just a mid-level boss fight? We wonder this a lot and we are here to discuss this today!
P.S. We apologize for Braden's audio, his mic fell down the tavern cellar and we are trying to still get it back from the Rat-Kin who live below. He also found a baby down there... so that's new!
