EPISODE 29: Demystifying the Mystical VII - The Conjuring

Episode 29

Saturday, January 21, 2023 • Duration 03:10:41

This episode we summon up a deep dive into the Conjure spell. First up in The Furnace, we talk about the Conjure spell, how to adjudicate its use, and offer you some homebrew rules to make this spell easier to handle. In Die Casting, we tackle two Conjure related talents, Natural Communion and Druid. We explore their benefits and show you how we can turn both into a truly unholy set of derived talents. Lastly, we call upon the forces of the netherworld (our mailbag) to answer your game and rules questions in Under the Hammer. So, break out your Necronomicon, charge up your Staff of Summoning, and don your ritualistic robes, as we bring forth another fantastic episode of The Forge: A Genesys RPG Podcast.
