Tall Dwarf Tavern is an actual-play tabletop-role-playing-game podcast set in the Magic: The Gathering multiverse. Yes you read that right, welcome to Nerd City. Population: Us. We’ve set out to tell the stories of the greatest conflicts and events of the Gatewatch story arc through the eyes of those most affected by them, the everyday inhabitants of each plane. These brave individuals don’t have the ability to planeswalk away when things go bad, and their homes and families are on the line. If they lose, there’s no second chance. No going back. No trying again. These are the tales of ordinary people forced to do extraordinary things to protect their worlds from the forces that seek to destroy it. Regardless of who they were before disaster struck, they now all share the same title: heroes. You know the story of the Gatewatch. Now it’s time to tell the story of all those who stood with them. They could be any of us. They are all of us. How much would you give to save the world?
