Hey all! This is just our quick wrap-up for the end of our first season (which we’ve sort of stumbled into properly calling a season now). It’s a handful of thoughts on what we’ve accomplished, and what we’d like to do in the coming year. Thanks again for listening and supporting our podcast so far, […]

For our last long-form episode of 2022, we’re diving into the library again, but this time we’re headed to the fiction section, and the Immortal Eyes novel trilogy. These books tie in to the three Immortal Eyes setting/chronicle books from 1st edition, fleshing out the story and giving some more options for incorporating the plot

Changelings are part fae, part human. But what about their fellows who are even humaner, or humans who are entirely so, with nothing inherently fae about them? This episode, we return to the library to talk about The Enchanted, Changeling’s supplement for “Year of the Ally” and the final(!) book of the 1st edition. While

Greetings, all! This episode is dropping a bit later than anticipated, because it’s our longest yet, but also one of our most important. Today we’re talking about Changeling’s version of the Nunnehi, the Indigenous fae of Concordia whose presentation has been a mixed bag over the editions. We’re not focused on a particular book, since

Croeso! We are wrapping up our trilogy of episodes on Isle of the Mighty with an exploration into Wales/Cymru and the fae/Tylwyth Teg that dwell there. The unfortunate news is that Book 3 of this weighty tome has a lot of the same issues we called out previously: clunky choices for the history section, uneven

The legend continues… this week, we’re proceeding north to Scotland for Book 2 of Isle of the Mighty. There’s more of the same in terms of bizarre history section content management, NPCs who are intriguing and forgettable in equal measure, and a geography chapter that is surprisingly good! Even though in the balance, this section

So begins our trilogy of episodes on British setting supplement Isle of the Mighty, with a look at the first three chapters on England. It may seem a bit strange to dedicate so much recording time to this episode, but at just under 200 pages of text that is dense (both in terms of content

*90s intensifies* as we do an exploration of the brief-lived but fairly-beloved Changeling tie-in CCG, Arcadia: the Wyld Hunt. With a base set released in August 1996, and a single expansion (King Ironheart’s Madness) in November of that year, the game was canceled before its third set (The Lion’s Den) could follow in 1997. But

In this *bonus!* episode for Samhain—not Halloween—Josh interviews Pooka G about their latest homebrew release for the Storytellers’ Vault, Book of Days. This is a compendium of things chronological for your Changeling chronicle: a day-by-day yearlong calendar of events with story hooks attached, essays on seemings, options for including Seasonal Courts or additional temporal weirdness

Happy Halloween! In accordance with the spoopy traditions of the day, we’re talking this time about Wraith: the Oblivion, the World of Darkness game that came out just before Changeling in the original lineup (and similarly underappreciated). Although the fae and ghosts might not seem to have too much in common, thematically or metaphysically, in
