Eldritch History: RPG Legends & Lore
Eldritch History is a podcast about the background, legends and lore of tabletop role playing games. Each episode focuses on a specific element of TTRPGs (a particular game, character, story, product, company, movie, etc) and explores its fictional and real world origins. Have you ever wondered where the Whispered One came from? Why the gorgon is a bull? Why are there so many games about Cthulhu? Then this is the podcast for you.
