Unearthed Mundana: Ahoy the House
This article was first broadcast in Episode One Hundred Eighty Four on 6th October 2021. Ryu (with maternal authority): Lennon! Lennon: …yes? Ryu: I know you’re not trying to pickpocket from me, are you? Lennon (sighing): I… I thought I was getting better at this. Ryu: As you keep reminding everyone, your Charisma score went up when you became a Warlock. I think your Dexterity is still what? Twelve? Lennon: …ten. Ryu: Okay, yeah, so why did you think you were going to steal my coin purse? It’s next to the hat, by the way, so good luck if you happen to grab that by mistake. Lennon: Why do you have the- okay one thing at a time. Firstly, that coin purse was mine in the first place; secondly in the Feywild they like to steal things. Well, some of the beings there do, the rest of them have…different greetings. Ostron: Wait, they steal things as a greeting? Lennon: Yeah, I don’t…

Archives of Candlekeep: I’m So Pretty
This article was first broadcast in Episode One Hundred Eighty Three on 29th September 2021. Lennon: Ryu, come on, we already talked about this. Ryu: When? Ostron: Back when we covered all the dragons, or did a summary anyway. We explicitly called out the gem dragons. Ryu: We talked about them for a grand total of maybe two minutes! Do you know how criminally short that is? Ostron: Still, we did talk about them. Ryu (disappointed): All right, well, I told KayDee that you guys wouldn’t be able to go over her notes on how to skin various creatures to preserve their hides because I was going to talk about dragons, but if we’re not going to do that… (a pause) Lennon: …You’re bluffing. Ryu: Try me. Ostron: I owe Gath too many favors…and a lot of diamonds. Lennon: Fine. R (squeeing): So as everyone knows, you can’t have Dungeons and Dragons without dragons, and you can’t have dragons without having more dragons.…

Archives of Candlekeep: Hags of the Feywild
This article was first broadcast in Episode One Hundred Eighty One on 15 September 2021. Ostron: Ryu? I thought you were headed into town for some snacks? Did you take the nightmare? Ryu: Definitely not. I don’t care how much KayDee insists he’s a big softie. No I met a nice woman on the road who fell in a ditch and needed help. She had a bunch of apples with her and gave me a bunch, so I didn’t need to go all the way to town. See here’s one- (loud horrific screeching explosion) Ryu (angrily): Lennon! What are you doing? Lennon: Saving your life! Old woman that fell in a ditch, needs help from a nice young girl, offers fruit? Did she give you anything else? Weird necklace, funny smelling potion, random baby? Ostron: Okay, Lennon, clearly you’re excited about something but the rest of us are a bit lost. Lennon: Ryu just described classic Hag…

Adventurer’s Journal: Time for a New Look
This article was first broadcast in Episode One Hundred Seventy Nine on 1 September 2021. Lennon (groaning painfully): Okay…chair…nice chair…ohh – except it’s not padded. At least it’s not a mimic. The Mimic: One in six chance…should have listened when that machine was talking. Ryu: What, you’re talking to yourself now? Lennon: It’s not…you know what, I don’t even care anymore. Ostron: What happened to you? Lennon: I was talking to RaeRae and I asked her why she didn’t choose to be a Moon Druid because otherwise she can never turn into any useful animals. Ryu: Oh boy. I imagine her staff of troll smiting was part of the chat after that? Lennon: I don’t think I’ll be sitting right for a while. I don’t feel I deserved it though. Ostron: Why’s that? Lennon: Well, I mean I was right! The other druids all end up becoming casters, they can’t get any really powerful creature forms. Ryu: You haven’t actually worked with many…
