Welcome back to DMNastics, the gym for Dungeon Masters to work out their minds.

I'm one of your host, D.M. Neal, aka Jote Moniac.

And I'm your other host, Celeste Gautowicz.

E. C. C.

Man, really need a name.

Yep.

One day, but not today.

And today we're going to tie back to episode number 172, The Warlock Within, which featured

Rich Baker, you know, the guy who kind of made the warlock in third edition.

Yeah. Oh, that guy.

Yeah, yeah.

Makes sense?

So many other amazing things.

And that led to D. Amnastics number 141, Build a Patron. Kind of like Build a Bear, but a little bit darker. A lot darker. Yeah, okay. I don't know. They take a lot of your money. I don't like that place. I don't know, but some of those Builder Bears can be pretty creepy. All right, so a little bit more about this episode.

We asked folks, of course, to create patrons for the world of Dambay or from their own games here.

So, of course, we have our questions.

One, who is your patron?

Two, what forces do they represent?

Three, what spells do they add to the list?

And then, of course, they're leveling up features, what other requirements and consequences

come from a pact with the patron?

And, of course, anything else.
