Show Notes
This week, Fiona and Hamilton check out 'Minsc & Boo's Journal of Villany' - a D&D 5e sourcebook that had a surprise release in October this year.
The journal stars two fan-favourite characters from the video game series Baldur’s Gate; Minsc, the legendary ranger and his pet (giant space) hamster, Boo.
From the book's bio:
'A century has passed since the Bhaalspawn fought over the legacy of their father — Bhaal, the Lord of Murder. Two heroes witnessed the epic struggle firsthand — the ranger Minsc and his faithful companion, Boo.'
'Minsc and Boo were able to track down old friends and hated enemies and find out what they’ve been up to over the past century. They’ve compiled everything into this journal, edited by the traveller extraordinaire, Volo Geddarm.'
'Included in this journal are four cities, including Athkatla and Baldur’s Gate; ten group patrons led by some of Minsc and Boo’s old friends; a dozen new monsters; six arch-villains and eleven dastardly henchmen.'
All proceeds of 'Minsc & Boo's Journal of Villainy' will go to the charity Extra Life the gaming charity that supports children’s hospitals in the Children's Miracle Network.
