2024 PHB: PLANE OF LIMBO - The Dream of the Oppressed is to Become the Oppressor

Ever wonder what happens when gravity goes "nah" and castles are portable? Join us as we dive into the chaos that is the Plane of Limbo in D&D, where physics are optional and everything is... complicated.

We're talking Githyanki, Proteans, glitchy characters, and the ultimate question: what does your afterlife look like in a realm with zero rules? (Spoiler: It's wild.)

Catch the madness, laugh at the absurdity, and maybe pick up a few tips on surviving the most chaotic plane!

SUMMARY

In this wild episode, the hosts boldly dive headfirst into the swirling madness of the Plane of Limbo in Dungeons & Dragons—where the laws of physics are more like "suggestions." Brace yourself as they chat about the Githyanki and Githzerai, the soul cycle, and what happens when your neighborhood has zero zoning laws and gravity takes a vacation.

From Githyanki portable fortresses (think "floating castles on the go") led by the legendary Menyar Og, to ancient Proteans chilling in the Maelstrom, it's a buffet of chaos with a side of philosophy. Oh, and if you thought life in Limbo was confusing, wait until they get into Planescape glitch characters—because why not throw a few bugs into the cosmic soup?

Whether you want deep lore or just need a laugh at the absurdity of it all, this episode has you covered.
