Roll Factory

This time on Roll Factory, we're learning about the Proficiency Bonus. It's the number that separates innate talent from trained skill.

In this episode, we conclude our look at the Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition Ability Scores with Charisma.

We're continuing to examine the ability scores on the Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition character sheet. This time, with Wisdom.

Today, our series on Ability Scores shifts focus away from the physical and toward the mental, starting with Intelligence.

Our look at the ability scores continues with Constitution.

This time on Roll Factory, we're looking at Dexterity. It's the ability you'll rely on for sick flips, sneaky stabs, and long-distance arrow delivery.

This time on Roll Factory, our look at the six ability scores begins with the beefy barbarian's best friend, the Strength score. We're joined by freelance science writer and journalist Bethany Brookshire. She's on Twitter as @beebrookshire.

This time, we're talking about Ability Scores: how they work, why they matter, and why you only need to think about them around every four levels.

On this episode, we demonstrate the core mechanic of Dungeons & Dragons: the roll of the 20-sided dice. You and your DM will use it to determine the success or failure of practically every action your character takes.

Meet our Mid-Level Dungeon Manager, and learn about our plan to tour the D&D 5e character sheet, one number at a time. Roll Factory is a podcast for new and returning players. And if you've ever looked at a character sheet and thought “what the hell do all these numbers mean?” it might be for you, too.
