Join the Cups and their patrons to discuss which non-companion, non-playable character is their favorite and why.

Welcome to Season 8!!!! We're so excited to launch this new season, dedicated to all things Entertainment of Thedas. In the first half of this season, we'll be diving into each of the books, comics, and short stories. The format will be a little different because we won't have any side characters at the end. In the second half of this season, we'll dive into all things recreational in Thedas: sports, theatre, music, and more. Today's episode is our first book club episode, focusing on The Stolen Throne by David Gaider. We discuss the plot, characters, and lore within this novel at length, and at the end, we give the book a rating out of 5. Now introducing Dragon Age Lorecast merch for everyone!
