  1. Hey guys do you guys think you will ever do a deep dive on Beast? Out of all of the 2e lines that is pretty much is the one that has had a very bumpy start and is still kinda bumpy for a few people. Personally I feel that Beast can certainly be very interesting it’s just it does take a bit delving then one would think normally. Of course I would also love to see more deep dives in general I’m just wondering if you guys are considering it with Beast along with the rest. Much love to you guys regardless. Dave is certainly interesting. Mage is definitely very fun.

  2. Around 37 minutes, Dave begins to talk about Signs of Sorcery. After that, it is Night Horrors. I am excited about Signs of Sorcery!
