This is the last part in our Religion and Deities series with Ryan McLaughlin from D&D for the Deconstructed. We consider and discuss a world without gods mostly pulling examples from Critical Role's current campaign.

SPOILER WARNING: This will spoil up to episode 65 of Campaign 3.

Ryan McLaughlin from D&D for the Deconstructed is back for part 2 in our series on Religion and Deities.

This episode we are going to talk about Matt's view of the Gods in Exandria and we'll also focus on three different characters from Campaign 2, examining their relationships to divinity.

This is a longer episode. We hope you enjoy the rich, theological discussion and connections to Critical Role. And maybe it will even inspire future characters and campaigns for you and your friends.

Ryan McLaughlin from the D&D for the Deconstructed podcast joins us for a three-part series on religion & deities.

In this episode, we set the tone for the series by talking about how D&D can be a cathartic experience and used as therapy.

Ryan provides an overview of D&D and religion, and shares his own experience using D&D to address religious trauma.

This episode is light on Critical Role connections, but we dig deeply into Vax's arc from Campaign 1 in the latter half of the episode.
