Icosahedrophilia Podcast, Episode 43: The Doom of Sarnath, Part 1
Picking up mere moments after the action in episode 42, episode 43 of the Icosahedrophilia podcast proudly presents “The Doom of Sarnath, Part 1″! Please listen now or subscribe via iTunes. This episode features the following segments:
- The Staging Area: I very briefly recap “Microcosm, Part 6,” but encourage new listeners to start with “Microcosm, Part 1″ before listening to “The Doom of Sarnath.”
- The Weather Report: The PCs investigate the third, shadow-shrouded levitating “island” in the microcosm cavern, and wind up embroiled in a battle with the undead guardians of the small graveyard that lies in the island’s center.
The Prop Shop: There’s not much to tell about the physical props used in this part of the adventure, so I focus most of this episode’s Prop Shop on a brief review of The Plane Below, chapter 1. I also mention the “design an artifact” contest featuring Blackrazor, the last of the magic items from the classic module White Plume Mountain to get a 4e makeover; Whelm appears in Open Grave, and Wave in The Plane Below.
Here’s the countdown to convergence:
- The Doom of Sarnath (5 more episodes)
- City of the Pirate Kings (4–5 episodes)
- Clash of the Pirate Kings (6–7 episodes)
- Escape from the Pirate Kings (4–5 episodes)
- The Sands of Time (4–5 episodes)
Please enjoy “The Doom of Sarnath, Part 1,” and please plan to join us for the continuation in “The Doom of Sarnath, Part 2″!

The (fairly) new start segment for each episode, where the players introduce their characters, is proving really useful. For one thing, I tend to forget which player has which character, or what class they are. For another, it makes it easier to tell players’ voices apart in the session. Nice idea.
