Heroes Rise, one hundred twenty-sixth entry: Professional Buttered Tuna Wrestling

Welcome, brave adventurers...

... to the one hundred twenty-sixth entry into our chronicle, recorded on Saturday July 11th, and released Wednesday July 15th over at heroesrisepodcast.com.

In this week’s Adventurer’s Pack, we all get envious of Ryu’s new purchase. Next we open our Quest Logs as Indigo Specter lets the djinni out of the ceramic jar in The Annihilation Hold, and then we take a Short Rest and head into the Archives of Candlekeep to learn about the fall and rise of the orc; before finally heading over to the Scrying Pool to see what you have to say.

Statement from Wizards of the Coast

We [Wizards] recognize that some of the legacy content available on this website does not reflect the values of the Dungeons & Dragons franchise today. Some older content may reflect ethnic, racial, and gender prejudice that were commonplace in American society at that time. These depictions were wrong then and are wrong today. This content is presented as it was originally created, because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed. Dungeons & Dragons teaches that diversity is a strength, and we strive to make our D&D products as welcoming and inclusive as possible. This part of our work will never end.

This Week’s Community Questions

The D&D Beyond Mobile app is now in open beta. Have you given it a try? Is it everything you ever hoped for, or did they push it to beta too soon.

What’s your take on a monthly dice box? Something that you’ll skip, or is it something your wallet better not hear about lest it burst into flames?

Heroes Rise are always on the lookout for new team members that have a passion for Dungeons and Dragons. Please know that all of our positions are volunteer, but we do offer a well known outlet for your work. If you have a particular skill that you believe could enhance our content, then send your contact information and experience to

Support the show

Our adventure has now ended, and we've hung up our robe and wizard hats to enjoy our retirement on the Sword Coast, running a tavern where a fresh band of adventurers may meet and start quests of their own. We're still around on Discord, and you should come and join the Heroes Rise community at http://discord.heroesrisepodcast.com
