Cosmology & Religion

In the second part of this shadowy setting, we embrace the darkness and introduce factions and entities that don't always get along. Join us as we discover truth and myth, with healthy servings of spiritual cleansing, Taoism, and divine churros!

The wheel of fate is turning...At long last, we return to listener prompts with a soul-focused setting from a first-time submitter! Tune in as we infuse this world with theosophy, spirit photography, conspiracy, and the pursuit of perfection. Don't mess with destiny, folks.

In the second part of this month-long series, we introduce druid-based factions to this strange world, which, yes, may involve cute animals. We also explore the magical connection between the lands of the living and dead, which is perhaps less cute.
For the record, Courtney only has 300 hours in Planet Zoo.

Happy New Year, beloved listeners! Continuing our tradition from January 2023, we're returning to our roots by embarking on an original longform setting. Without a prompt and with just two tenets each, we start a fantastical realm where the rains contain life itself and where maps and calendars are so much more than static guides. What wonders remain hidden behind the storm clouds? What lurks at the bottom of the massive maw in the earth? And what role do the druids of old play here? Tune in to find out!

Floating islands rising from the ocean, tethered by chains. Prophecies in song, carried on the wind. Prog rock. These are just a few parts of a listener's bronze-age setting built on an idyllic seascape, traversed by kites and boats. But all is not as it seems, and to learn the truth we must go far into the planet's past, when the red star first rose and the royal pair still reigned together.

In a special holiday season edition of a Monster Mash, we're rolling for a wintry mix of monsters! The fates (or dice, whichever you prefer) have us reimagining toys, elves, and reindeer in some rather grotesque ways, with settings spanning from FAO Schwarz all the way to space. Let Rudolph's blood-red glow guide you through the night, but remember, children: you can't ever truly buy your way off of Santa's naughty list...

In this episode, we begin a new setting from patron DiploRaptor where elves, dwarves, and orcs live peacefully...in the aftermath of a genocide of all humans. We're joined by magic engineer C.R. Rowenson to build out this human-less (and cat-less) world by adding demons, plagues, pacts, and poison clouds. Listen in to hear all about uncomfortable subjects (like, y'know, genocide), Dwarf Fortress, and Clark's utterly shameless rule-bending!

In this episode, we're joined by Ian of the Undercommon Taste podcast for an exploration of a fantastical monster, and an oddly convenient die roll has us diving into one of his favorites: the kelpie of Scottish folklore! We chat about this criminally-underused creature's origins in water safety and its sneaky human-horse shapeshifting abilities, then build out two settings on the fly in the genres of paranormal romance and high fantasy. War crimes might take place.
 
Be sure to tune into the Undercommon Taste podcast, head over to the UCT Discord server, and check out all of the content on their Linktree at https://linktr.ee/undercommontaste.

This week, forbidden teachings take root in a leadership academy run by the god of knowledge itself. Tune in to hear all about this school, its lofty goals, and its unlikely (and adorable) professors in a world otherwise encased in a dark age of false despots!
