Hey everyone! Welcome to Plot Hooks, the podcast where we explore the art of narrative and collaborative storytelling in the world's premier RPG, Dungeons & Dragons.

This week in The Prime Material segment, Samuel discusses the challenging topic of handling player character death at our table. In The Wilds, we look at the nothic. And in The Tavern, what would you do if the party was hired under false pretenses?

The new race for our campaign setting - titled The Ihmeset Race - will be releasing on our Patreon on June 7! Already, Patrons have access to a great list of magic items, the creation story of the world of Khariq, and the list of deities in the setting. And the document explaining what sets this world apart from other Dungeons & Dragons settings is still available publicly if you want to see what this world is all about! If you can, it would be awesome of you to support us (patreon.com/plothooks). Your help allows us to continue to make Plot Hooks bigger and better for you, and to help out with the costs of running the podcast. You can find perks such as being listed on our YouTube graphic and being able to suggest topics for a future segment in The Tavern, in addition to all the aforementioned content about Khariq as it gets released! 

Be sure to follow us on social media! You'll find us on Twitter (@plothooks), Facebook (Plot Hooks), Instagram (plothooks), and YouTube (Plot Hooks Podcast). Questions or comments? Email us at [email protected], or find us on these social media accounts.

A big shout out also goes out to all the sources for our wonderful audio. Music was procured from Melody Loops. The tracks were "Epic Intense Trailer Intro Indent" by Jon Wright, "Dark Avenger" by Infraction, and "Medieval Ballad" by Erick McNerney.
