The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week, with the kickoff of the 2.0 update for Avowed, I started a brand new save file and found myself some of the unique quaterstaves in the game. Then I got to wondering - "why might there magical staves in Avowed and not in Pillars of Eternity" (from a lore perspective). So I put my thinking hat on, worked through some of the lore and actually came to realize some interesting things about how magical items might work in Eora.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

Grant McDowell & Tim Buckley– Spark Club Podcast 19 Feb 2026 - Hi and welcome to Spark Club podcast. I'm your host Grant McDowell. We are recording this podcast on the Garigal lands of the Eora nation and pay our respects to elders past and present. Welcome.  And welcome Tim Buckley. Highlights Domestic firmed RE deployment The Clean Energy Council's 4Q2025 Investment Report demonstrates a rebound in large-scale renewable energy and storage investment across Australia. The quarter delivered record commissioning outcomes across generation and batteries, strong financial close activity. Five renewable generation projects (1.2 GW) and 5 storage projects (1.1 GW) reached FID during 4Q2025, with total capex >$4 billion across generation, storage and hybrid assets. newly commissioned renewable and storage projects. Nine generation projects were completed totalling 2.1GW of new. 4 storage projects (1.9 GW / 4.9 GWh) became operational, beating records broken in Q3 2025, reinforcing Australia's accelerating energy transition. The forward pipeline remains robust. There are currently 81 generation projects (13GW) and 75 storage projects (13 GW / 35GWh) either financially committed or under construction. This month started with NSW awarding contracts to six huge 8-hour battery projects, including one of the biggest in Australia – the 300MW and 3,500 megawatt hour Great Western BESS, All are due to be completed by 2030, and some are supersized above eight hours of storage. 1.2 GW and 12 GWh of long duration storage, massively further undermining the role of methane and PHS. This week also saw NSW announce an extra tender for more firmed renewables capacity to fill looming coal gap under Long-Term Energy Service Agreements (LTESAs) to leverage the fast to deploy BESS and solar leveraging infill opportunities across NSW and importantly, leverage the Battery boom to get more zero emissions generation into the mix. CBAM KEY TO GREEN COMMODITY OPPORTUNITY: JOTZO REVIEW Professor Frank Jotzo's Carbon Leakage Review Report to Climate and Energy Minister Chris Bowen is finally public. https://www.dcceew.gov.au/about/news/carbon-leakage-review-final-report We agree with the review's finding that measures additional to the Safeguard Mechanism "may be required and desirable over time, for specific commodities at high exposure to carbon leakage risk in domestic markets…. A border carbon adjustment would be the most suitable option in these cases… [to] support the emergence of green commodity production in Australia, harnessing this country's opportunities to be a major contributor to global industrial decarbonisation through exports." It is clear that we need a price signal to drive decarbonisation of trade-exposed Australian industries through the extensive buildout of renewables infrastructure at speed and scale. Critical to all of the above is a price on carbon, leveraging and enhancing our domestic actions so as to provide a stronger signal for development of carbon pricing in international trade, and building on the price signal of the EU CBAM with an Asian CBAM, as we argued in our 2025 report. This would help catalyse investment into industrial decarbonisation at a speed and scale commensurate with the climate emergency and the green economy opportunity. GM - I'd like to pick up on minor issue relating to the design of the REGO in Australia replacing the LGC. The calculation mechanism for the Australian REGO is out of sync with the global standard. The REGO certificate is limited to the 1MWh per certificate rather than down to the watt hour per trading period. Sounds trivial but the REGO has a fundamental flaw as it requires the excess to be rolled over into the next trading period. This volume won't be accepted in the EU, meaning there will be small amounts of energy volume which can't be counted for every half hour trading period for the year. This flaw creates numerous problems as a global energy matching standard emerges in a number of forms; CBAMs in EU and Asia Green product standards - green hyrdogen green steel. and likely changes to GHGP Scope 2 in 2027. This minor flaw is annoying and with a minor change to the REGO now we can save Australian exporters a world of pain for years to come. Middle Powers Highlight As the Middle Powers are a big topic for us this year, was there anything that jumped out to you since our last conversation? EV Buses in India Tim - KKR investment in electric buses in India. EV busses in India are now 30% lower total cost of ownership relative to diesel alternatives. The 30% cost advantage was enough to get KR over the line to put capital into rolling out EV buses in India. Australia risks being wedged. Australia must be open to international trade with all nations and avoid being wedged between China and the US. Lowlights Whyalla The SA Government has shelved their green hydrogen plans last year, and now the SA Treasurer has overtly flagged their intention to double down on the false dreams of a gas led recovery for the Whyalla Steelworks. Meanwhile this week saw the SA Premier provide a joint Federal-State $20m support for the magnetite mining sector is SA to boost 2Mtpa magnetite mining, a move we endorse. As per CEF's report last year, we think the government should support a multiphase redevelopment of the iron ore to green steel sector of SA by expanding magnetite mining and supporting a new greenfield RE-powered EAF to replace the beyond end of life blast furnace, and to ensure steel supply for downstream fabrication. Secondly our governments should use a chunk of the $500m Green iron investment fund to support semi-commercial scale deployments of Australian technologies to produce decarbonised iron and steel, namely a pilot Element Zero electrolyte green iron plant, a second 30ktpa Calix ZESTY magnetite to green iron plant and a 8ktpa BioCarbon plant, plus incentivising scrap steel recycling within state to feed the new EAF, with the majority of the input material imported for the first 5 years of operation. A phase 2 in the early 2030s would be to build a GH2 and RE powered green iron plant once the economics are stronger, and a path towards an Asian CBAM is better established. Main Story – Local content mandate – Ministers Ayres and Bowen are holding a rapid industry consultation about a new Future Made in Australia (FMIA) policy to incentivise local wind tower and transmission tower manufacturing. CEF has worked over the last year with an industry consortium and we pitched this exact policy initiative to the minister in December. Our recommendation was a policy with four pronged policy A 20% national mandate for wind tower local content, leveraging and collaborating with low cost Chinese suppliers A Production Credit to ensure the policy doesn't increase the cost of wind power to consumers A clear long term volume target of 4GW of new wind annually to underpin factory utilisation Capex assistance for the new factories required. Interesting to see the EU this week do boosting local content mandates, The EU's upcoming Industrial Accelerator Act could signal a pivotal moment for green steel producers in northern Sweden. New "Made in Europe" rules are thought to require at least 25% low-carbon steel in public procurement and subsidy-backed projects. Green hydrogen-based production, electric arc furnaces, and scrap-based methods are, according to Bloomberg, explicitly highlighted as priority technologies. What's coming up? Tim is attending the community engagement in the Hunter Valley this week, to help build social licence, and then over the next couple of weeks attending and speaking at a number of conferences e.g. Cambridge Institute of Sustainability Leaders (CISL) Group in Melbourne and Sydney and the Clean Energy Investor Group conference (CEIG) annual investor conference in Melbourne, Climate Action Week in Sydney the following week, then the Sydney Storage conference.

The Matildas have released their 26-player squad for the Women's Asian Cup so ESPN's The Far Post is dissecting the squad. Join Samantha Lewis, Anna Harrington, Angela Christian-Wilkes, and Marissa Lordanic as we chat about Mary Fowler's inclusion, the surprise addition of Alex Chidiac, and who was unlucky to miss out.

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's (delayed) episode was *supposed* to be about the Barbarian class and their rich history, etc etc. However it turned into a look at how emotions can affect the soul, and what that means for the world at large. This episode is more of a "questions rather than answers" kind of episode, but fret not - there is still some lore that we can sink our teeth into.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

In today's Daily Fix:Nintendo's latest financial results show a mixed bag of results for the Switch 2. Kirby Air Riders, Donkey Kong Bananza, and Mario Kart World are selling in the millions, but notably missing is Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. The game was not listed in either the Switch or Switch 2 million-seller lists, however it's possible that combined sales across Switch platforms could total one million or more. The game had a rocky development history, being delayed several years and changing dev teams. In other sales news, Obsidian's The Outer Worlds 2 and Avowed did not meet sales expectations, and the company has announced they don't have any plans for The Outer Worlds 3 (but will continue exploring the world of Eora, the setting for Avowed and Pillars of Eternity). And finally, February's Game Pass line up has been revealed, with High on Life landing day one on the service.

We've hit the halfway point of the A-League Women's 2025-2026 season, so ESPN's The Far Post's Samantha Lewis, Anna Harrington and Angela Christian-Wilkes are checking in on the big stories so far. We mull over the big questions like: are Sydney FC not good? Are Canberra United good? What's wrong with Melbourne Victory? We also chat through the PFA's Ready For Take-Off report, give a boot, and pay tribute to some legends of the game.

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode is a deep dive into one particular order of Monks within the world of Eora. Monks in this world use pain as a way to embolden their soul to perform the superhuman feats you see in the game; and in the lore, some monks have interesting approaches to how they utilize that pain to achieve "enlightenment".worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode focuses on Quarterstaves and Rods, both are weapons we see in the Pillars of Eternity games. I'm focusing on them because the next weapon to be updated into Avowed in February is apparently a quarterstaff, but also might be related to magic. So to cover both bases I'm talking about both today.This episode features lore found in two unique weapons, and a bit of a dive into the Concelhaut spell "Parasitic Staff".worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week is an unorthodox episode. I don't discuss a lore topic so much as I discuss a form of roleplaying in video games that I've enjoyed since I was a youth. At the time I didn't have a name for it, but as I grew I began calling it "algorithmic roleplaying", which some have asked me about. So I made this episode to outline how it works (for me), and maybe it'll inspire you to try your own as well...worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week we conclude our look at the Knights of the Crucible, which we overviewed last week. First encountered in Pillars of Eternity, they are one of three main quest factions that you can engage with to gain clout within the city of Defiance Bay. They began as Blacksmiths trained in Combat, and were instrumental in the War of Defiance. A war which garnered the Dyrwood's independence from their mother nation, Aedyr. Now that we know their history, what are their ranks like? And how do you move up through them? That's the focus on today's episode.

Whether it’s watching your kids play their local club fixtures or gathering around the telly for the grand final, sport brings Australians together more than almost anything else. But there’s a hidden – and potentially deadly – cost. Associate Professor Michael Buckland studies the brain, and through the Australian Sports Brain Bank, he examines the brains of athletes who’ve passed away. He’s worried by just how many brains come into the bank and are revealed to have CTE, or chronic traumatic encephalopathy. It’s a degenerative brain disease caused by repeated head impacts over a long period of time. In other words, the kind of thing that might happen if you’ve been playing collision sports since you were a kid. Michael explains how our understanding of CTE has changed in recent years, its causes, and most importantly, how we can mitigate the risk of CTE for all athletes, of all ages.

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode looks at the connective tissue between a 2000 year old paladin order, undead knights, a cursed ship of the seas, and how easy it is to overlook the stories hidden within our favourite video games.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week on the podcast I discuss the central lore behind Rangers as presented in the world of Eora. The BIG thing that makes a Ranger a Ranger here is the "soul-bonded animal companion". So, after researching the lore in Pillars II (Deadfire), I started wondering...can you *faithfully* play as a Ranger in Avowed, where you don't get an animal companion? Well, it turns out...there is a way.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week we look at four of the stronghold adventures from Pillars of Eternity and discuss the lore found within. Such topics include the Pwgra creature, Brishalgwin Mindhunters, Memory-eating beetles, Ixamitl Plains folk, and more.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week is more of a "stream of consciousness" talk, with lore discussed throughout. A looooong time ago I talked about infusing the world of Eora into tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons (specifically 5th Edition). However, what if you were playing games more in line with the OSR ("Old School Renaissance") style of play, such as Cairn, which I've recently gotten into. It's a much less measured approach, but one that seems more intuitive...and one that seems easier with Avowed, I might add.So I discuss the biggest ideas in Eora that we see in the games that need to be considered when approaching OSR style TTRPGs. This might be the first in a couple episodes dedicated to this topic, but it won't be a long-running thing, since we want to focus on different lore here over time. But I think it's valuable nonetheless.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode I finally take a bold stance. You're playing Path of the Damned difficulty WRONG! Yeah, I said it, what you gon do about it, huh!? Nothing, that's what!Except perhaps play Avowed (and Pillars) as a devout Magranite and properly engage in the challenge PotD offers on a mental and spiritual level? Idk, Maybe... ENJOY!worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode dives into the Pillars of Eternity companion, Grieving Mother. A powerful cipher with a dark story who uses her abilities to create illusions to hide. One of the more interesting characters, especially from a writing perspective, to check out. Could Grieving Mother be in Avowed? Technically, yes, she could - but we would never know!worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode focuses on the God Totems found in Avowed, looking at the four deities associated with those totems, and how each god totem aligns with our Envoy's journey throughout the game's narrative. As well, what does it mean for your character to BE a Woedican, Skaenite, Waelite, or Galawain..ian? ite? Hope you enjoy this episode :)worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week I turn to the new weapons and armour from the latest major update (Patch 1.5) and check out some lore from those items. TO BE CLEAR I do not go through each and every item, that would be a ridiculous use of your time; but I do go through a few and explain the lore that's presented in them. The rest I'll leave for future episodes, or for curious gamers to check out themselves.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode asks the question: "Does the Living Lands, as presented in Avowed, line up with the lore we see from Pillars of Eternity about the Living Lands?" Bit of a mouthful I know, but it's something I was wondering about in a recent playthrough. Avowed is a much more different game than Pillars of Eternity, and so the presentation of the Living Lands as a vibrant place in this fantasy world will also be different. So what I do on this episode is look at Living Lands lore from PoE1&2, and ask "Did we see something like that in Avowed?"worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode discusses the Archmage Ryngrim, whom we read about in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire, but actually get to *see* in Avowed. In Deadfire all we knew were three things: (1) she's an archmage; (2) Tayn is desperately trying to befriend her; and (3) her magic specializations seem to focus on fear-based illusion spells.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week I springboard of a recent Reddit post I created on r/Avowed wherein I asked you, the community, about what references do we see, in Avowed, to the Pillars of Eternity games. I had several finds of my own, but the community together easily tripled that list. This episode basically runs through that list, and why those references MATTER to us Pillars gamers, as well as the Eora world in general.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This episode ORIGINALLY started off as a "various unique items" lore episode, but it kind of turned into an episode all about Necropants, a much-beloved piece of "armor" you can acquire in Avowed. There's plenty of tangents I go on, and the lore is all over the place, but it's a fun episode. You'll wanna check this one out.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode dives back into some foundational PILLARS OF ETERNITY lore, but still includes Avowed stuff as well (they're all in the same world, after all). Focusing on Wizards today. Mostly we discuss how it is that wizards cast spells, but we also discuss a famous magic academy: Bragganhyl Academy, which has multiple mentions in Avowed item descriptions. Did the developers have Bragganhyl on their minds for DLC and that's why it's so prevalent? I, for one, hope so!worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.This week's episode looks at a six-part set of in-game tomes aptly titled "Maxims of the Pargrunen". In there we see a direct change of Pargrunen-ness that the dwarves in Avowed have compared to their brethren elsewhere in the world. worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora

The World of Eora is a news & lore podcast about the fantasy setting created by Obsidian Entertainment for their cRPG series, Pillars of Eternity, and their action RPG: Avowed.Tangential spoilers for the ending segments of the game. KIND OF directly related to the mainline narrative, but technically something you could miss in detail. I leave it to you to decide.This week's episode focuses on a series of documents you can find, called "Orisons" later in the game, which allude to the history of the Living Lands, and what happened to the Ekida (or, "the Godless"), in particular.worldofeora@gmail.com@worldofeorako-fi.com/worldofeora
