Heroes Rise two hundred and twenty first entry: Just Getting Started

Welcome, brave adventurers, to Heroes Rise. This is the 221st entry into our chronicle, recorded on Saturday August 6th, and released Wednesday August 10th over at heroesrisepodcast.com.

In this week’s Adventurer’s Pack, Lennon gets six different kinds of mappy 

Next we take gather around the campfire and engage in some Dissonant Whispers, reminiscing about our first times playing D&D

After that we’ll take a Short Rest and head into the Archives of Candlekeep to get the low down on Orcus, the so very undead; before finally heading into the Scrying Pool to see what you [all] have to say.

Community Questions

So what was your first fifth edition character? Did they joyfully climb to the heights of accomplishment and vanquish all their foes with friends aplenty. Or were they an abject failure, relegated to obscurity and death and replaced at the earliest opportunity?What’s your latest experience with the undead? Were you dealing with large constructs and weird bodies of large creatures? Or was it just the hordes and hordes of zombies everyone knows and loves?
