About this listen

In this episode of That RPG Podcast, we talk Project Sigil, PC characterization via The White Lotus, and a wizardly megadungeon right out of a Jack Vance novel. Sometimes as game masters we get carried away with our worldbuilding, writing so much material for our players to consume that getting into the game feels like homework. Don't be a helicopter mom! Use our pre-session zero tips to make your players invested in the game you worked so hard on.
