We’re back with the second half of our unofficial two-parter on angels! (And yes, you can catch up with our first half here.) This time around, we’re discussing how to make angels interesting in your games. First, though, we’ve got some business to catch up on, including GaryCon 2019 (which Peter had a great time at) and ConCarolinas 2019 (which Grant will be attending this year.) We’ve also got a topical Patreon question from Paige, who asks “What advice do you have for running a game at a con?”
After answering that, we read our Scripture and dive in (with a brief initial segue about Angels in the Outfield for … reasons.) Angels as messengers, allies, and guardians! Angels as instruments of divine wrath or cosmic maintenance staff! How to portray angels in your game to make them interesting! And also, a little break to talk about the theology of guardian angels.
