Hey there fine townsfolk
Just chiming in before today’s episode to let ya’ll know that this will be the final episode of Random Encounters.
The numbers haven’t boomed enough for us to keep up production, so we’ve decided to put this bad boy to bed.
To those of you who listened to us, thank you so much. We genuinely appreciate your joining us on this journey.
And if there’s a much bigger audience out there that we just don’t know about who really needs this podcast weekly, please write in, let us know.
With enough of a response we could very easily be convinced to continue this endeavor.
Regardless of how it turns out, we do very much want to thank those of you who did listen to us. We did this for you, and we are glad to have been a part of your weekly listening schedule.
Weekly Random Monsters
How would you use a Rat King in your own campaign? What would it be like to play in a game as a vortex dragon? What attributes does a pumpkin leshy have again?
On Random Encounters we answer those questions and more! Each week Nik pulls a random monster from a random manual. Matt tries to guess what it is based on flavor text, and then we discuss!
With over 20 manuals to pull from, and over 5000 monsters contained therein, we’re in for a podcast that’s sure to be - choose your own answer:
Scary B) Adorable C) Funny D) Intriguing E) All of the above
