In this episode we chat with Magpie about her character Altair. Altair has been through many iterations and we talk about all of them! We discuss the process of taking a character through multiple settings and worlds, how the character changed from one to another, and how each one affected the character, and yes, those are different things! We also learn the truth of why Edward Cullen sparkles. Later we get some insights from Altair as he's granted omniscience to remember every one of his iterations.

In this episode we talk with Jordan of the DnDark podcast about her character Larry Talbot, aka The Wolfman. Inspired by the classic Universal movie monster, we discuss how Jordan expanded on Larry's original journey and took him on new adventures that led to some amazing character growth. We also chat about the ups and downs of being a werewolf, and how to cope with a heavy affliction. Then Larry walks us through his experience in his own words, reflects on what he learned from it all, and regrets not learning how to magically clean things.

In this episode we talk with Rayne Eldridge and their character Willamina Fogg, a journalist by day and haunted artist (literally) by the rest of her time. We go over the influences behind a character whose art gets twisted into horrible things, what it means to interpret art, and the struggle of separating the art from the artist. Then Willamina talks about her experiences and what she hopes for herself, and asks us to please refrain from leaving your teabag in your empty cup when you put it in the sink. It's gross. Thank you.

In this episode we have a chat with Geoff Barry and Pastiche the changeling rogue/warlock of the Stories Told Again actual play podcast. Once we cover the basics, we delve into Geoff's thoughts about Pastiche, including their origins and motivations, the fun and freedoms that come with playing your brain gremlins in a game, and how to chew vegetables with sharp teeth. Then we dive right in to a wild conversation with Pastiche themself, and you'll have to listen to hear all the shenanigans they get up to and the stories they have to tell. Here's a teaser: a dead body, spaghetti grass, and a fey deal.

This episode features Lilith and her Candela Obscura character Sybille. Sybille explores the tolls that war takes on a person's psyche and how one attempts to recover from the devastation of destruction. We discuss coping mechanisms, modern parallels, being a foreigner in a foreign land, and how to maintain hope when so much darkness seems to surround us. This episode is a more serious one but it is worth the listen to hear about this incredible player and character.

Triggers: horror/monsters, mentions of sex work, discussions of historical Nazis/Nazi-ism and modern parallels, descriptions and discussions of war, World War I, World War II, survivor's guilt, prejudice, death and loss

This time we welcome Tiffany from the Stories Told Again actual play podcast onto the show. We discuss the origins and peculiarities of their character Liv, an oathbreaker paladin being pursued by her past and persecuted by her people. Among lots of things, we talk about how TTRPGs influence us as people, how we as people influence our characters, how our characters influence the world they're in, and how that world affects us as people. It’s one big circle of fun! Then we talk to Liv herself about how she’s adjusting to the situation she found herself in, how she’s connecting with the people she’s met, and why she’d rather fight a giant duck.

Triggers: Profanity, personal hardships, duck slaying

In this episode we chat with my good friend Luna about how NPCs can become so much a part of a game that they're practically a PC for the DM without ever having been meant to be. Luna talks about the ways she created and developed her NPC alongside the party and how he eventually came to be a staple with them, a beloved member, and a "precious bb boi" (lol).

Solana Datura spent much of her childhood in the dark. Somehow it was still a surprise when her shadow magic manifested. Whisked away by drow, only to escape and fight demon lords, Solana has been on an epic adventure. The key word there, however, is "has". In this episode we talk with Star, host of the Characters Without Stories podcast, about the journey she took from start to finish with her shadow magic sorcerer. We touch on what it means to take a character through an entire story, what it means to say goodbye to a character, and ways that we say goodbye and move forward when the tale has taken its course. Then of course we talk to Solana herself and get her perspective on what the future holds for her and how she plans to continue her legacy.

Triggers: troubled family relationships, death and loss, trauma and child abuse, discussion of genocide, mentions of sexual feelings/actions/exploitation

Ah yes, a swashbuckling scoundrel of a kenku turned resistance fighter. Swarthy and debonair, this bird's feathers aren't the only dark thing about him. Join me as I interview my good friend David, of the Noobs & Knockouts podcast, about his D&D character Wretched Seadog. We'll hear all about David's experiences playing in a long-term campaign, finding community in the people he plays with, and how creating characters sparks artistic masterpieces. Then we'll let Wretched Seadog tell his side of the story and why he doesn't like ducks. Just another wild ride aboard Professional Questers.
