PH 55 - Consequences, not Punishment

Hey everyone! Welcome to Plot Hooks, the podcast where we explore the art of narrative and collaborative storytelling in the world's premier RPG, Dungeons & Dragons.

Today in the Prime Material, Samuel looks at the contrast between consequences and punishments from the  DM perspective, and how understanding the nuance can help us have better play experiences and tell better stories. In The Wilds segment, the carrion crawler! And in The Tavern, what would you do if a creature needed something strange?
