With Dumb-Dumbs & Dragons in its 6th season and still going strong, this group has amassed a ton of experiencein how to tell stories over multi-year campaigns, how to blend comedy with D&D (and still have real stakes), how improv helps with roleplaying, and how to keep being friends with your DM after your character dies. It's hard to get them to stop talking about D&D!

Mario is originally from Mexico, which is where he first began playing D&D via online forums and text messaging after becoming interested in the game after seeing the Dungeons & Dragons live-action movie. Mario went on to DM his own homebrew campaign, in which he drew inspiration from the rich history of the ancient Maya, Inca, and Aztec cultures. Lore You Should Know – Chris Perkins & Matt Sernett are on today to teach us about the long, contentious history of the Gith. Once slaves under the oppression of the Mind Flayer empire, these humanoids rose up behind a great leader named Gith, which is where they take their name from. Through much strife and bloodshed, they finally defeated their tyrannical illithid masters. But, peace did not follow. A rift erupted within the Gith people soon after the war and they split into two groups known as the Githzerai and Githyanki, which have vehemently despised each other ever since.

Joe Manganiello on Arkhan & Critical Role
