  • E20 - It's Star Wars Day!

    On this day in 1977, a young GreyBeardTavern went to see Star Wars.  A short time later, Lantern Noir would see the film, and in those two moments, fans were created.  As our recording day fell on this amazing anniversary, the Tavern Two take the week to reminisce on the good, the bad and the Force.  Feel free to join us on Discord with your own stories.

  • E18 Plot Armor

    Sometimes we just want to keep our PC's alive.  Is that good, or bad?  The topic of our happy hour rolls around in "ethics" of fudging rolls or even entire encounters because we don't want a PC or NPC to feel that painful sting of death.   Feel free to join us on Discord with your own stories.

  • E17 - But how does it Alignment?

    One of the most debated, most discussed and most, we think, misunderstood items in Dungeons and Dragons is that of Alignment.  The topic of our happy hour rolls around in our history with the concept, what it looked like in older editions and our predictions for 6th edition whenever it should come.   Feel free to join us on Discord with your own stories.
