I have two major Fifth Edition Fallout updates to announce! Okay, technically I announced both on twitter already, so some of my readers will already be aware. But do you know how little visibility an individual tweet gets? And not all of you follow me on twitter (though maybe you should! Especially if you’re a

I know I already said this last week, but Happy New Year! Have any of you made a resolution to kick the habit of one of your worst indulgences? I know I could certainly stand to eat less and exercise more. Gluttony and sloth are no doubt highest on my list of sins. It’s such

Hot on the heels of last fortnight’s addition of Mirelurks, the Gatorclaw, and miscellaneous updates, the Fifth Edition Fallout bestiary gets a massive new update today! On top of that, there are some other changes which I’ll go over below. If you missed the last update, perhaps the most exciting thing was the addition of

Today I’m going to go over the content of Xanathar’s Guide to Everything, giving some of my thoughts along the way.
