Malcolm GMs this one and Arcadia has the winning initiative role. Cady talks about how teachers can use TTRPGs for learning and how homebrewing can create the correct platform for teaching specific skills and knowledge. Hack and slash campaigns don't always cut it to teach economics or other subjects. Worldbuilding can be challenging to begin with and takes more consideration than most of us have time for; teachers are amazing and deserve better, period. Tori returns from break to discuss the importance of lore in a TTRPG. Lore is important in both homebrew and modules alike and can absolutely (see what I did there?) be a collaborative effort between the GM and your players. Players can be your greatest resource because at their core, TTRPGs are collaborative storytelling. Players can throw curveballs at their GMS that may require some flexibility but also can result in some amazing lore and storytelling. Thunder rolls in the distance…  No sources cited.
