Welcome, brave adventurers, to Heroes Rise. This is the 250th entry into our chronicle, recorded on Saturday October 28th 2023, and released Wednesday November 1st 2023 over at heroesrisepodcast.com.

Folks, we just wanted to take a quick moment to remind you that next episode will be a Dissonant Whispers episode, and we’re inviting you all in. We’ll be recording at 8pm Central on Saturday 11th November, and the topic will be… whatever you like! We would love for as many of you who wish to join us to do so, and all you need is a microphone and to join our Discord at discord.heroesrisepodcast.com. If you can’t join us but still want to take part, just let us know on Discord and we’ll take care of it.

In this week’s Adventurer’s Pack, Ostron once again shows us how the other half play D&D…

Next we check out some D&D News as we take a look at the latest hardcover release, Planescape: Adventures in the Multiverse

After that we’ll head into the Gnomish Workshop to continue finding out if it’s a good idea to be one of us; before finally heading into the Scrying Pool to see what you [all] have to say.

Community Questions

• So now that it’s available, what do you think of the planescape resource? Is it a marked improvement over the previous guides and setting resources WotC has put out? Or is it still just a mediocre offering that doesn’t do justice to the originals?
• How much do you love Time dragons? Does everyone agree more Modrons are great? And which side of the Sunflies debate are you on?
• Given that we now have more details on how and why the characters are jumping to level 17, what’s your opinion of the approach?

Our adventure has now ended, and we've hung up our robe and wizard hats to enjoy our retirement on the Sword Coast, running a tavern where a fresh band of adventurers may meet and start quests of their own. We're still around on Discord, and you should come and join the Heroes Rise community at http://discord.heroesrisepodcast.com
