How does a DM handle it when a particular PC has a better chance to know something compared to a different PC? How does a player handle it when there is a difference in what the PC knows compared to the player? Does this knowledge ever conflict with player agency? We touch on the idea of participation vs being an audience member, and whether a DM tells the players what their PCs missed when they are done with an adventure.

When they get back to the Hokka village the group gets a surprise! Debrief: This episode we talk about using prophecies in campaigns, player agency vs DM choices, and how to deal with player agency when one person's desired actions are directly opposed to another player's actions, and the concept of closing the loop in GMing.

In the first half of this episode DM Samuel hosts a session 0 character creation activity! After a quick introduction to the setting, we meet the PCs. First we find out about Ashaz "Ash" Whitemane, a Tabaxi Rogue who spent most of his young life stowed away on a cargo ship. We also introduce Emmeryn, a Human Cleric of Goras who has spent the past months trying to figure out the secret of The Sinking. And lastly we get to know Axley Tillingquest, a Halfling Bard who is destined to write the greatest epic story ever told... and a cookbook. In the second half of the episode the lighthouse keeper's daughter tasks our heroes with finding out if her father is alive and well. While investigating they witness strange movement on the beach. The group comes upon a consortium of crabs - the mealy, rotting beasts are eating something disgusting on the beach! A strange eye-like symbol embroidered on a sailor's tunic, a half sunken ship, and a scrap of paper with a mysterious name leave the group with more questions than answers!
