The Roll For Podcast

This week we roll for spells. We are on a mission to find the best spell in the game so we argue over which cantrip, 1st level and 2nd level spell is best with the ultimate goal of producing a grand spell tournament to include all levels and once and for all decide what spell is the best.

In this episode we Roll For...Senkora Factions, we return to Fraz's homebrew world to talk about some of the groups, gangs and guilds that he has developed for his made up place. We talk about where the inspiration came from, the importance of having such factions and how he managed to created fantasy internet.

This week we roll for Shadowfell factions. The domains of dread are just so friendly and comfortable that we've decided to stay there and talk about the groups, gangs and collectives that exists in the Shadowfell. We talk about everyone from the Whispered Ones to the Order of the Silver Dragon. 

In this episode we Roll For...Beasts of Barovia and talk about all the weird and wonderful creatures that inhabit Strahd's hometown. We discuss how the Shadowfell is different to other planes, we offer some interesting ways to use the monsters in game and we make fun of Twilight.

In this episode we roll for...Disney horror one shot. Fraz had an idea for a one shot and tried it out on some friends. It went so well that we decided to share it with everyone. So if you need inspiration, ideas or something to straight up steal, look no further.

In this episode we roll for Senkora. We are back in Fraz's homebrew world and Lewis comes armed with plenty of great questions about the history, style and topography of this entirely made up place. So if you're interested in Senkora, or if you need inspiration for your own homebrew world, you're in the right place.

In this Episode we roll for...Senkora a totally made up place. In Lewis' absence, Fraz describes his homebrew world from the POV or a historian. He gives a brief overview of the landscape, the history and the society conjured up in his own little mind.

Please send us your questions about this world, anything at all, to help with the world building and development or Senkora so that it is ready to be played in.

This week we roll for Planes, those existential in-between places that make the world magical, spiritual and mystical.  We try our best to explain exactly what planes are and why they are so important to a fantasy world. We discuss how to design and build them in a homebrew world and how to describe them to your players.

In this episode we roll for humans. We discuss why a person would enter imagination land and choose to play a human. We wonder if they are actually the most boring race and we run through all the different variants available.

This week we roll for continents. We get back to world building. You've built your tavern and your town, now we need to look out into the wider world. We talk about different ways to build a continent, how to design your maps, why you should build extra continents and why you maybe shouldn't. We also discuss how to make your continents have a different feel  to one another and how to transmit that to your players
