    The Forgotten Realms are no stranger to strife and destruction, but some events will be forever remembered in history: The Sunderings, the Spellplague, and the Time of Troubles. We've briefly touched on these events in previous episodes, but tonight, it is time to look into each of them in more detail.

    Of all the gods of the Dark Seldarine, only one is truly dedicated to restoring the drow to peace with the people of the surface. A being of beauty whose dance reminds her people of long-forgotten days of tranquility, the goddess Eilistraee will not rest until all her people have been saved from the evil of Lolth.

  • The Tarrasque
    Apr 21 2025

    The Forgotten Realms are no stranger to terrifying creatures and world-ending events, but one monster stands above the rest when it comes to its destructive capabilities. A creature so powerful that nearly every player who has sat at a Dungeons and Dragons table has at least heard its name, and the reputation that precedes it. Tonight, we are discussing the Tarrasque. One of the most powerful creatures to ever exist in D&D, and also one of the most mysterious.
