✨🌿🌼 Two best friends decide to open an inn..I mean start a podcast. Here’s a closer look at the photoshoot we did this spring with !

We’ve been bogged down by our schedules recently, but we just wrapped two episodes we think y’all will really like!!

Buffy Summers is a character that people love even 20 years after she was off the air. 🤯 One thing we love about her is that she possesses stereotypical masculine traits like being assertive and outspoken without appearing masculine (like being tall and built)! Transforming those traits into a D&D character got us excited about maybe playing a fighter someday!

If you are a Buffy fan, what makes her an interesting character to you? And who should we look at next?

For the last 2+ years TJ, Caitie, and I have been watching through Buffy the Vampire Slayer. We enjoyed it so much, it only makes sense that Buffy would bleed (hah) into the podcast.

This week Caitie and I attempt to make a Buffy Summers inspired D&D character. If you need something to listen to while you work or a fun watch - give us a try! 🩸🖤🧛🏼‍♀️🪦

Question for you, rosebud... Are you into 90's shows? Or, perhaps hot vampires? Maybe a little dash of the occult? Or, even more taboo... DUNGEONS AND DRAGON...

Board games with friends are always a blast, but they are even better when there’s a birthday! 🧁♟Last weekend, we celebrated Soren’s birthday at our local game cafe, Mana Games!

We finally played the Stardew board game 🐔 and had the best time celebrating our favorite podcast host, art mom, and best friend! We said it before, but we will say it again - Happy Birthday Soren! 🥰

New Year! ...New Episode Format!?! 🥳 WE NEED YOUR HELP! Help us name this type of episode in the comments! Is it a Lore Dump... Is it Legend Lore... Is it Trait Transformer? Rose Buds, we choose you!

This week in the Rose Garden, we are taking a look at a character in media (this one being Persephone 👑🌿🏺 from Lore Olympus)! We talk about their traits and what makes them an interesting character and transform those traits (not the character themselves) into parts of a D&D character. Sometimes it's mechanical... sometimes it's all in the role play... Either way, we have too much fun chatting about our favorite characters and learning from them!

Episode 25 - YOUR TITLE HERE: Persephone Edition - is out now!

This weekend we spent some time recording new episodes!! Safe to say these were super fun to work on. We can’t wait to see y’all in the garden next week! What did you do this weekend??

10/01/2024

The Rose Garden is closed today! 🥀

We've got a bit of a schedule change this week, dear Rose Buds! New platforms tend to mean new challenges, so hold tight for January 24! We are dreaming up a new format for the next episode that we think you'll really like! 🥰

In the meantime, feel free to catch up on past episodes you missed and keep an eye on socials cause we have some content coming for ya here!

Be nice or else!

Your Chromatic Roses 💕

We uncovered the hidden treasures of solo adventures in D&D. 🌟 From deep character studies to world-building wonders, solo scenes bring a whole new dimension to the game. Here are the key takeaways:

🌱 Character Study: Solo adventures serve as a character study, allowing players to explore the deepest layers of their personas and uncover untold stories.

🎭 Exposition Extravaganza: They provide the table and audience with exclusive exposition, unveiling secrets and perspectives they wouldn't have seen otherwise.

🌍 Lived-In Worlds: By showing more parts of the world, solo adventures breathe life into the campaign, making the setting feel rich, vibrant, and truly lived in.

Don't miss this insightful discussion on how going solo can level up your D&D storytelling! 🎲🌹
