We had the pleasure of interviewing two key people in the design of the Strixhaven Dungeons and Dragons 5e sourcebook, Amanda Hamon - Lead Designer for the project - and T. Alexander Stangroom - father of the NPCs!
The interview focuses on the inspiration for the designs of NPCs, the process of getting the book made, and how their personal experiences helped shape the result!
