  • Excellent for seasoned players and new players alike

    Are you someone who’s only seen home brew campaigns so know nothing about D&D lore? Were you like me and felt like you missed something when Shadowheart said she worshipped Shar like it’s something important in BG3? Have you thought to yourself “man who is Ed Greenwood and why is he the best?” Then BAM! Sean and Jess got you covered with Roll for Lore! The most excellent hosts. The grandest community. All that and more found here every week. Although the best comments are on Spotify lol.
