Hey Storytellers,
We have moved to posting on Monday / Wednesday / Friday.
The Silver era or age can be explained this way. Atlantis (golden age) has just fallen. The survivors have landed, scattered across the world. They don't have the technology or maybe even raw goods to bring Atlantis back but compared to the primitives they are now living among they are like gods.

So they band together and create the great civilizations Greece and Rome and conquer the world with new technology and strategies, but it is nothing like what the power of Atlantis could have done if they wanted to. But sadly, those days are gone.
The old Atlantians (or those with the knowledge) are known as demi-gods throughout history and their works are told, but only from a person with no knowledge of how they were able to accomplish what they did.
Disclaimer: We don't believe in Atlantis but this gives you a great idea of Gold vs Silver Eras.

How to Take an Idea and Make it a Campaign
Hey Storytellers,

Why Most of Our D&D Adventures Are in a Dungeon or Town
Hey Storytellers,
Have you ever noticed why most D&D / Pathfinder games occur in a place with definite boundaries?
Visit Skullrpg.com to see what books, free courses, and other resources are available for you and your gaming needs.
In this episode, we talk about ways to get out of places with definite boundaries and how the gaming mat has limited D&D to 2d combat that requires walls to work really well.

GM 101: World Creation - Creating a Realistic Fantasy City
Hey Storyteller,
Creating a fantasy city can be daunting. Do you need a map? How many store owners and types of stores do I need to have created? What about guilds / factions / temples? Do I need to know what the tech / magic limit is for this city? Where do I even begin?
