Show NotesThis week, Fiona and Hamilton continue their deep dive into the Bard - a playable class from the original 5e Player's Handbook. Bards are a versatile group, capable of combat and of magic. They weave magic through words and music to inspire allies, demoralize foes, manipulate minds, create illusions, and even heal wounds.According to the Player's Handbook: 'The bard is a master of song, speech, and the magic they contain. Bards say that the multiverse was spoken into existence, that the words of the gods gave it shape, and that echoes of these primordial Words of Creation still resound throughout the cosmos. The music of bards is an attempt to snatch and harness those echoes, subtly woven into their spells and powers.The greatest strength of bards is their sheer versatility. Many bards prefer to stick to the sidelines in combat, using their magic to inspire their allies and hinder their foes from a distance. But bards are capable of defending themselves in melee if necessary, using their magic to bolster their swords and armor. Their spells lean toward charms and illusions rather than blatantly destructive spells. They have a wide-ranging knowledge of many subjects and a natural aptitude that lets them do almost anything well. Bards become masters of the talents they set their minds to perfecting, from musical performance to esoteric knowledge.'In this episode, we cover the following subclass for the Bard:College of Lore (from PHB)College of Valor (from PHB)College of Glamour (from XGtE)College of Swords (from XGtE) College of Whispers (from XGtE)College of Creation (from TCoE)College of Eloquence (from TCoE)College of Spirits (from VRGtR)College of Tragedy (from Tal'Dorei Reborn)Books: 'Player's Handbook', 'Xanathar's Guide to Everything', 'Tasha's Cauldron of Everything' and 'Van Ritchen's Guide to Ravenloft' published by Wizards of the Coast, August 2014, November 2017, November 2022, and May 2021 respectively.'Tal'Dorei Campaign Setting Reborn' by James Haeck, Matthew Mercer and Hannah Rose, published December 2021.Consider using our affiliate link when using DM's Guild!#SupportyourFLGSCredits The DM's Book Club is hosted, recorded, edited, and produced by Fiona Howat (@WAIR_Podcast) and Hamilton (@TheDragonDM).

The 10th episode of Arcana Uncorked eschews well formatted, finely balanced homebrew. No, this time it is all about houserules. These are those on the fly rules changes that you and your DM made because it makes the game more fun for your table. We have a pile of them that we have used or considered for our home games and of course we are going to talk about them. Oh, and there is an actually word for the "realism" we keep talking about in the episode. "Verisimilitude" is when story elements are consistent with respect to the genre and tone of the world they are in. So, many of these rules are inconsistent with our lived reality, but still have verisimilitude because they are consistent with the expectations of how your game works. Spell Driver and Bonus Action Potions can be found in the Critical Role: Tal'dorei Campaign Setting by James Haeck and Matthew Mercer, available at your friendly local game store.

James Introcaso chats with game designers Alex Clippinger and James Haeck about the replayability of Waterdeep: Dragon Heist.

James Haeck, Lead Writer for D&D Beyond and Coauthor of Waterdeep: Dragon Heist and Critical Role's Tal'Dorei Campaign Setting joins the pod to educate me about how Critical Role overlaps with elements of the RPG and D&D landscape - and how it also has carved its own niche. He discussed the evolution of Critical Role and how it only recently became an independent entity outside of Geek & Sundry and Legendary Digital Networks while also clarifying my prior misconceptions about Critical Role being "under" Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro. James and I ponder what Critical Role's success may mean for tabletop RPGs and empathize with individuals that may question the money that is being raised. I disclose my initial interest and envy from the success, and we both discuss the perils of focusing on the successes and failures of others while trying to create content. I thank James for delving into these questions, and we both acknowledge our lack of adequate solutions for these dilemmas. I shift gears with James to ask about how he got involved in Waterdeep: Dragon Heist, and prod him for suggestions on how to get the most out of the content provided in the book. I selfishly wanted this information as my group my find their way into an urban setting soon! This is a worthy conversation, and I hope you give it a listen!
