E095 – Lore – Waterdeep: For When You’re Feeling City

From the ancient civilization of Aelinthaldaar, through the horrors of Undermountain, the destruction of the Netherese, and the armies of the Trollwars, the Crown of the North (aka Waterdeep) has been through hell a few times.  Marauders, assassinations, and incursions have all left their marks upon the city, and now the It's a Mimic! podcast is digging throught the annals of history to get some answers.  What's with these massive statues?  Who is the Mad Mage?  What were the Guildwars?   It's all about lore, nobility, fallen gods, Underdark invasions, and masked politicians in this rich and storied look at the Sword Coast's second biggest city, the warlords of its past, the magical protections surrounding it, and factions that make daily life so... interesting.  Join the panel of Dungeon Masters as they dig through the lore that 5th Edition has to offer, and deeper into what can be gleaned from previous publications of Dungeons & Dragons.   Available On: iTunes | Spotify | Podbean | YouTube Don’t forget to Like/Follow/Subscribe/Whatever when you listen!
