Binary System Podcast #361 – Lore Olympus #241 and #242, and Dungeons & Dragons

Okay, here’s the Lore Olympus recap: Hades spends two episodes moping because Persephone is avoiding him. Done! That’ll wrap us up for the week, make sure to check out pixelatedgeek.com…

KIDDING. There’s more to it than that. (But seriously, two whole episodes of moping.)

In addition to all the sulking we meet Hades’ new assistant (not Leuce, thank goodness), and we get a giant surprise from Persephone that explains why she’s been hiding. More importantly, we get some really cute glimpses of wedding night sexy times, because priorities.

After that we spend the rest of the episode squeeing about every cool thing in Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. The Hither-Thither Staff! The Paladin! Holga’s Ex! That one scene with Chris Pine and the lute you know what we’re talking about!

This week’s outro is a clip from Odyssey (radio edit) by Delta 78.

The book Elizabeth mentioned was the AD&D 2nd Edition Monstrous Manual. We loved the art, especially anything drawn by Tony DiTerlizzi, who did a fantastic job with any of the anthropomorphic monsters, like the Werefox, Weretiger, and the Rakshasa.

The creature Kathryn was thinking of is the Tabaxi. (Same book, different artist.)

Elizabeth asked Midjourney for Umbrella Academy fan art featuring Five and Dolores the Mannequin. What she got was Five and Vanya, and aside from the extra long forearm, we really like it.
