Tale of The Manticore, a Dark Fantasy Dungeons & Dragons Audiodrama

Part fiction, part game, it’s the story where ”Chaos rolls.”Become a supporter of this podcast: [https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tale-of-the-manticore-a-dark-fantasy-dungeons-dragons-audiodrama--6276878/support] (https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tale-of-the-manticore-a-dark-fantasy-dungeons-dragons-audiodrama--6276878/support?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss) .
