Hello listeners!  This week is an extra EXTRA special week here at World Forge because we have an amazing announcement to make...  we're getting married!  That's right your two favorite worldsmiths are forging the separate metals of their lives into one super alloy that will surely result in way better content than the weak ass stuff we've been doing the last 2 years.  Or nothing will change really for you, it remains to be seen!

As such we are talking about rings of power this week!  How to create them, what they can be used for, and where to find them!  Piper also gives us a little Lord of the Rings lore lesson.  This was a good one.

Our rec room this week is the wonderful podcast Lingthusiasm!  Lauren and Gretchen are two extremely talented creators and linguists who have put together a show that we think you need to check out asap!  Thanks to listener Skylar for turning us onto them!  You can find them on twitter @lingthusiasm and at lingthusiasm.com!

Hello Listeners!  This week we're taking characters from our various DnD games and pairing them up as roommates to see how they do!  Sometimes we get lucky and have a match made in heaven, and other times we find ourselves in a bit of a mess.

Welcome back listeners to another episode of World Forge!  Today we are following up on last week's episodes creations and taking a closer look at what the heck it is we're trying to do every week.  We try to explain what's going on in our heads when we bring you creations like a burglarizing art dealer inspired by Lupin III, and how we keep track of all the weird plates we try to balance when running  game.

We also want to recommend you go and check out our dear friends who we ran a game with this past weekend Mike @McStalkie and @DiceTowrTheatre, and Melinda @RadiobyMelinda and @WizardsandWine

Happy holidays listeners!  We're back again this week with another (vaguely) holiday themed episode!  It's holiday themed in that it's a gift we're giving to you, the gift of a Christmas dragon!  We had a blast with this topic last year so we've decided to make it a bit of a holiday tradition to do an episode where we create unique dragons to shove into your various dungeons!

Mike and Joleen have some awesome and hilarious ideas about how to kill demons with math, turning a dragon into the ultimate fashion accessory, and what it would be like if Ben Kingsley were a dragon.

We also want to give shoutout to last years guest Josh from over at Arcane Forge!  Josh is an amazing artist who creates videos breaking down different DnD and mythological monsters over a speed painting he's done of that episodes monster!  December is all about dragons on his channel so go and check him out if you need more dragon-y goodness this holiday season!
