Thinking Critically: A D&D Discussion

Canon

Listen Later

This episode features Eli Royall from the We Play RPGs podcast family! We discuss how to establish canon in your setting, and the implications of having a standardised fiction. The second problem is how to communicate this to players and bridge that player/character divide; when a character has lived in the world for 50 years, how can the setting and DM effectively translate that into something players can use to guide their actions?

  • 05:05 - The Duality of What's Canon
  • 23:33 - The Player/Character Canon Canyon
  • 40:02 - Accidental Fiction
