    The world of men has fallen. The halfling heroes have been slain, and the Dark Lord reigns supreme over all the nations of Midworld. That was one hundred years ago, and as far as evil overlords go, Morkherre was pretty decent. He ended the war, provided healthcare, and was an early investor in arcanotech and the interweave. Join our band of Working Stiffs as they juggle life, love, and just trying to make ends meet in late stage capitalism. Lesser Evil is a D&D 5e actual play podcast set in a modern-ish world where the good guys can't win. We hope.
