So sit back, get comfortable and find familiarity with the Pseudodragon, embrace the chaos and be more of fae with the Faerie Dragon, and mix it all up in a weird egg/scale soup for the Drake.

It’s A Mimic! ·

2021/06/22

This week, the It's A Mimic! podcast grabs inspiration from a famous work about writing, and looks at a multitude of plot hooks and conflicts that can add drama to a campaign arc. These are great tools to have for when a player inadvertently opens up a potential subplot or side quest, so that you - as a Dungeon Master - can capitalize on the appropriate theme. Additionally, these are great options for players to bring to their DM's as themes and experiences that they'd like to explore. 1

These are Blights, Mephits, Modrons, Myconids, Vegepygmies, and Fey creatures in general. Then, Dan and Adam wrap up with general tips about running mob creatures

Dan and Adam sit in the warmth of their own Guild Hall, and discuss the mysterious (and not in the good way) Merfolk, the insidious Merrow, and the outright bizarre and upsettingly powerful Kuo-toa! But there are too many monsters for just these two hosts to take on, so they've reached out to their own mob of Dungeon
