Welcome, traveler! Name's Alaric, Keeper of the Hearth, and this has been my favorite stool for over a decade. I've seen green adventurers become legendary heroes, and I've seen Dungeon Masters weave tales that would make the gods weep. In all that time, I’ve picked up a few simple tricks of the trade—little spells for a better story. That’s what "The DM's Cantrip" is all about: short tales and easy advice to help you roll dice and tell stories with confidence. So grab an ale, and let's talk shop. The DM's Cantrip is a TTRPG and Dungeons and Dragons podcast centered around teaching new players and DM's alike the tricks and tips of the game and sharing stories from my own table. Hope you enjoy!

S1.E5 Understanding the Keepers of Fate

Alaric, Keeper of the Hearth, introduces Episode 5 of The DM's Cantrip, focusing on understanding the dice used in roleplaying games. He explains the purpose and common uses for each of the seven standard dice: the d20 (most common, for action outcomes), d12 (for heavy weapon damage), d10 (for heavy weapons/spells, with a second percentile d10 for 1-100 rolls), d8 (for common martial weapons/spells), d6 (for lighter weapons/spells like Fireball), and d4 (for small weapons/spells like Magic Missile). He also clarifies the notation "XdY" (e.g., 2d6 means roll two 6-sided dice and add results). The episode however, ends abruptly due to a disturbance inside the Weary Wanderer Inn.  Follow us on Bluesky @thedmscantrip.bsky.social All Music by Monument Studios is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International  All Sounds Effects under a Create Commons License from FreeSound.org

S1.E4. What Do I Need to Buy?

In this episode of The DM's Cantrip, Alaric the Keeper of the Hearth guides new players through the essential purchases for starting Dungeons & Dragons. He breaks down the three main entry points: the D&D Starter Set, the D&D Essentials Kit, and the Player's Handbook. Alaric recommends the Starter Set or Essentials Kit for newcomers wanting to play immediately, highlighting their included rulebooks, dice, and adventures. For those ready to dive deeper, the Player's Handbook is presented as the foundational core rulebook. The episode emphasizes that a heavy purse isn't necessary to begin, only a willing heart, and hints at future discussions on dice and other accessories.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
