Welcome, brave adventurers, to Heroes Rise. This is the 224th entry into our chronicle, recorded on Saturday September 3rd, and released Wednesday September 7th over at heroesrisepodcast.com.
This week we’re going to wander into the Market of Minauros to see what mysterious and magical items have filtered up for sale.

and abilities, as well as reviews of some of our favourite apps, books and other tools to help you with your games. So, if you’re a brand new player taking your first steps into the world of Dungeons and Dragons and just looking for some helpful advice, or you’ve Dungeon Mastered for so long you can still recite the THAC0 tables without looking, we’re sure to have something for you.
