  • DnD Factions: Lord's Alliance

    DnD Factions: Lord's Alliance
    Feb 23 2026
    In this episode of Roll for Lore, we pull back the curtain on the Lord’s Alliance, the powerful coalition of rulers and merchant cities that serves as the political backbone of the Forgotten Realms. Whether you’re a Dungeon Master looking to use the Alliance as a patron or a Baldur’s Gate 3 fan wondering why Duke Ulder Ravengard and the Flaming Fist are so obsessed with order, we break down everything you need to know about this lawful-neutral powerhouse. We explore the high-stakes diplomacy between iconic cities like Waterdeep, Neverwinter, and Baldur’s Gate, and how their "security at any cost" mentality often clashes with the more chaotic heroism of the Harpers. From the legendary influence of Laeral Silverhand to the internal rivalries that threaten to tear the Sword Coast apart, this episode is your definitive guide to the faction that keeps civilization standing—and the dark compromises they make to ensure the gold keeps flowing and the monsters stay at the gates.

  • DnD Factions: Order of the Gauntlet

    DnD Factions: Order of the Gauntlet
    Feb 16 2026

    Today on Roll For Lore, we’re diving into the Order of the Gauntlet—the Forgotten Realms’ premier "punch-evil-in-the-mouth" society. If the Harpers are the spies and the Lords’ Alliance are the politicians, the Order is the heavy metal cleanup crew.

    Join us as we break down:

    • The Vibe: Why they’re more than just a glorified neighborhood watch in plate armor.
    • The Gods: Torm, Helm, and Tyr walk into a bar... and demand justice.
    • The Ranks: From Chevalier to Vindicator (and how to not get fired).
    • For the DM: How to use them as patrons without making them "The Fun Police."

    Keywords: Dungeons and Dragons, D&D Lore, Order of the Gauntlet, Forgotten Realms, Paladin, Cleric, DnD Factions, TTRPG, Wizards of the Coast.

  • DnD Monsters: Cyclopses, Ettins, Fomorians, ogres, and Trolls

    DnD Monsters: Cyclopses, Ettins, Fomorians, ogres, and Trolls
    Feb 9 2026

    This episode covers a lot of ground—mostly because the things we're talking about have very large feet and very little impulse control. We’re diving into the "not-quite-giants" of the D&D multiverse: Cyclopses, Ettins, Fomorians, Ogres, and Trolls.

    From the "two heads are better than one" (unless they're arguing about who gets to eat the halfling) logic of the Ettin, to the "I’ll heal that later" biological horror of the Troll, we explore why these creatures are the backbone of every classic dungeon crawl. We also take a dark turn into the Feywild to discuss the Fomorians—the fallen royalty of the giant-kin—and why their "Evil Eye" is a lot worse than just a judgmental look from your DM.
