Episode 5: “Be Careful What You Read” (D&D 5e Session 2)

Here’s episode five of our Guardians of Indir campaign, which begins our second recording session. In this episode, the players learn about leveling up their characters for the first time, and they create some interesting world and NPC details in the process.

My approach has always been to introduce new rules to my players as they become relevant, so I only started talking about leveling up with a trainer at the end of the last episode. The players get some choices on how they will gain levels, and one player presents a bit of a surprise in the choices they make, demonstrating that even fantasy characters must be careful what they read.
