Dirk, from my own gaming group, wrote a review of Quintessential Wizard for me for this episode since he's playing our party's wizard. This is a 4th edition book and is intended to be a book that gives more detail to your wizard PCs. There were some concerns of balance issues, but will those play out? Listen to find out.

The Tome Ep: 108 Dragonborn

Jun 24, 2009
16 min
This episode is a solo cast where I look at Dragonborn from Goodman Games. It is a book intended to give your Dragonborn characters more depth and more options. Listen in to see if they pulled it off.
In this episode I am also testing out using bed music. Let me know what you think via email (thetomeshow @ gmail . com), on The Tome Show's Facebook group, or on Twitter.
I'm also having some issues getting links to work while I'm away from home. So I'm going to post this episode for your enjoyment, but I will go back and add the links when I get back to my normal computer set up. Thanks for your understanding.
