Ep. 204 Dragons

About this episode

This episode explores the significance of dragons in Dungeons and Dragons, their characteristics, and the ecosystem surrounding them.

When it comes to D&D, there is one apex predator: The Dragon. It is even in the name! These winged creatures come in all sizes and colors, which is lucky for adventurers. See, a dragon’s color tells you a lot about the creature, including their alignment, their powers, and their magic resistance. When you are going after something so powerful, you will take any advantage you can. We discuss why this is the case, and how it works. We also explore the idea that much like predators in our world, there have to be a whole host of smaller creatures that live around the dragon to ensure their survival. Why not hitch your wagon to the most powerful creature in the land! Podcast Links The Mimic Cycle Gelatinous Cubes Megalodon Facebook Twitter
