Welcome, brave adventurers, to Heroes Rise. This is the 249th entry into our chronicle, recorded on Saturday October 7th 2023, and released Wednesday October 11th 2023 over at heroesrisepodcast.com.

In this week’s Adventurer’s Pack, Lennon takes us to the Thieves Guild

Next we check out some D&D News as we take a look at the Monstrous Compendium, the latest Planescape teasers, and we check out the One D&D Playtest 8: Bastions and Cantrips.

After that we’ll head into the Gnomish Workshop and find out if it’s a good idea to be one of us; before finally heading into the Scrying Pool to see what you [all] have to say.

Community Questions

• So do you plan to use or steal any of the creatures from the Eldraine resource? What do you intend to use them for?
• What do you think of the leaked details around the Planescape adventure? Do you like the lore around the gate towns? How about the reincarnating/probability shifting death mechanic?
• And do you want your own Bastion to build? Do you think this is a good way to do it, or is it too little, too late and you’re already fine with a 3rd party option that’s been kicking around?

Our adventure has now ended, and we've hung up our robe and wizard hats to enjoy our retirement on the Sword Coast, running a tavern where a fresh band of adventurers may meet and start quests of their own. We're still around on Discord, and you should come and join the Heroes Rise community at http://discord.heroesrisepodcast.com
