This week, we're joined by Rene, the host of the Rene Plays Games podcast to talk about post-catastrophe and post-apocalyptic settings. Join us as we discuss ecology, infrastructure, and how to wreck your home town* for the purposes of generating a TTRPG setting.

* in a fictional sense. Do not actually wreck your home town.

We've mentioned Rene and his podcast a couple of times in recent months. We strongly encourage everyone to go and check out his work here, or on your podcatcher of choice: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/rene-plays-games-5573891/episodes/recent

This week, we do a little bit of homebrew worldbuilding, asking the question: what does a setting look like when everyone is capable of casting spells? Join us as we discuss the implications of having a society full of spellcasters, some ways that even combat-focused cantrips could be used as utility spells, and just what to do about Eldritch Blast.

This week, we're venturing into the Chaotic Evil quadrant of the Great Wheel to discuss the extraplanar dragons of Carceri, Pandemonium, and the Abyss. Join us as we discuss feral chihuahuas (relevant), eldritch horrors (RELEVANT), and The Human Centipede (also, unfortunately, relevant).

CONTENT WARNING: Once we get to the Abyss (around the 33 minute mark), there are elements of body horror, non-consentual body modification, and other elements which may be upsetting to some listeners. Listener discretion is advised.
