Hey Storytellers,

In today's episode, we cover different eras as an overview. Using the Greek understanding of Golden, Silver, Bronze and Clay age of Humanity we talk about this in RPG terms.

What does that mean? Great question.

A Golden Age adventure means that your world is at the pinnacle of magic / tech / etc. Most RPG's don't take place here.

Instead, most take place during a bronze age of heroes. This allows the players to explore old castles (now turned into dungeons because of time) for ancient relics.
