Veins of Lore

Overview

Yes we get it! It's yet another podcast of people playing
Dungeons and Dragons https://groupfinder.eu/library/dungeons-dragons-5e-2014
. Where do we differ from others? Maybe we don't., maybe we do. That will yet remain to be seen. What we are is a small group of friends whom seek to bring our game to listeners and share our experience with the gaming community. We are 4 people, one with over 40 years of playing experience who has literally played every edition of the game since 1979. Another who has been playing for just over 20 years and 2 more rather new players who have only experienced 5e. We will be using mainly 2014 5e rules ,yet there will be scatterings and dashes of rulings and inclusions from Advanced D&D - 3.5. While ignoring the fact the
4E https://groupfinder.eu/library/dungeons-dragons-4e-2008
ever existed. All that said we will be bringing some great home brewed traditions to the mic as well as making some of it up as we go...

Dicey Fate

English
Dungeons & Dragons
Actual Play
In a world where the line between a hero’s rise and a catastrophic fall is as thin as the edge of a d20, the members of The Aston Menagerie & Tall Tails find themselves bound by more than just adventure. For the Menagerie, what begins as a Princely Pilgrimage quickly spirals into a journey across the kingdom of Ilsea and beyond, where forgotten secrets and ominous omens wait in every shadow. While for Tall Tails, A mercenary band named Murder Mittens has just decided to take a vacation and gets whisted away on a whirlwind adventure taking them across the entire world. From high-stakes royal balls to desperate searches for what has been lost, the party must rely on their wits—and their luck—to survive. As ancient powers stir and personal pasts begin to catch up with them, one question remains: When fate is on the line, will the dice be in their favor?

Owlbear Rodeo
Tools & Platforms

Owlbear Rodeo

Virtual tabletop (VTT)
English
Free
Owlbear Rodeo is a "no-frills," browser-based virtual tabletop that prioritizes speed and ease of use above all else. Originally launched in 2020 as a simple image-sharing tool, it evolved into version 2.0 (and the 2024/2025 "Warp Core" engine updates), transitioning to a cloud-based subscription model while maintaining its "pick-up-and-play" spirit. It is the premier choice for GMs who prefer theater-of-the-mind play or quick tactical skirmishes without the heavy automation of larger platforms. Description Owlbear Rodeo is the digital equivalent of a dry-erase battle mat. It does not try to be a video game; instead, it provides a shared canvas where you can drop a map, throw down some tokens, and start rolling dice in under a minute. It is famous for requiring no player accounts—the GM simply creates a room and sends a link. While it has added advanced features like dynamic fog and extension support, it remains the most lightweight and mobile-friendly VTT on the market. System Overview & Key Features Zero-Friction Access Players do not need to register or sign in to join a game. By simply clicking a URL, they are instantly transported to the map with full access to their tokens. This makes it the undisputed king for one-shots, convention games, and introducing new players to the hobby. The Warp Core Engine The 2024/2026 "Warp Core" update introduced high-performance GPU rendering. This allows the browser to handle massive 144-megapixel maps and animated backgrounds with zero lag, even on older laptops or mobile devices. Modular Extension System Rather than bloating the base software with features, Owlbear uses "Plug-and-Play" extensions. You can toggle on a 5e Initiative Tracker, a Dice Roller, or a Clock tool only when you need them, keeping the interface clean and distraction-free. Pixel-Accurate Dynamic Fog The "Fog of War" tool allows GMs to hide sections of the map with incredible precision. You can use brushes to reveal specific corridors or use "Cut-out" shapes to simulate light sources, all of which syncs across every player's screen in real-time. Multi-Device Syncing Owlbear is built from the ground up for touchscreens. It is the only major VTT that feels natural on a tablet or phone, making it a popular choice for "hybrid" games where players use their devices at a physical table. Persistent Custom Rooms Paid tiers allow GMs to claim a unique, permanent URL (e.g., owlbear.rodeo/your-campaign). This room stays open 24/7, allowing players to check the map or move their tokens between sessions without the GM needing to be online.
