    The in-game start date for the episode was the 10th of Misuthar 836. Sam’s flask has a picture of Brienne of Tarth writing in the book “The Traveler was here”
    I mean, the evidence is pretty clear. The O’Brien-Johnson campaign has compromised itself; they’ve sold us out to a foreign power. I have no choice but to officially endorse Sam Riegel for President of D&D Beyond. It’s time for Sam Riegel.

He was created by one of the betrayer gods for use in the war between the gods but when his creator was sealed away he was too. I doubt he is a true or even partial god. It seems more like he's just a primal leviathanesque monster that eventually gained intelligence and began to seek out followers to free it. Of course only Matt knows for certain

      The Fractured But Whole he mentions he was in the material plane before ages ago. He could have been a minor god but lessened and residing in the Feywilde. His return and gathering of followers could be what elevated to god hood (his symbol was found). Also, I think the Traveler was met back in Episode 27 as Keelyn.

He does it a lot too. People might see it as a sign of benevolence, but you gotta admit, that stuff right there is something a psycho killer would do to someone. “Shh shh, it’s ok it’s ok” as your being eaten alive by a swarm of bugs. In my opinion Atleast. I don’t mind, makes him an even more enjoyable character to watch being portrayed on the show.

      Not fully caught up, but that seems possible. Yet for some reason I can see either Jester or Caduceus multiclassing after Fjord. In fact I think Jester will eventually make a pact with the Traveler and become a warlock.
      Besides if Fjord fully transitions into a Paladin and ends up with 9 levels as a hex blade and 11 levels as a paladin then that could mean that Jester could multiclass.

    I love how many different takes there are on Eldritch Blast. I have a warlock who fires the blasts out of his palm like Iron Man. A buddy who plays a warlock in a different campaign shoots them out of his fist as he punches. And Travis shoots them like finger guns. How many other different ways of Eldritch Blast are there?

      A little late to the party, but my warlock has a rod that's a rune carved handle of a bow, he shoots his eldritch blast by forming a bow of light out of the handle and firing it at enemies. He's a celestial warlock/divine soul sorcerer so I flavor his guiding bolt and other attack spells as him shooting from the bow of light.

      In the game I'm running, the warlock of the party has an imp tied to a staff and shoots the blast from the imp's mouth. It's quite fascinating.

    I'm not the only one who noticed this, the opening intro cinematic has changed, now Uk'otoa has more than one eye, and apparently some other things, like the bright queen and other drow, as well as notts(Veths?) family.
    Edit:also I don't know if it's been like this from the beginning, but I just noticed that the people that Beau and yasha are fighting right before the "take a chance roll the dice" part are the snake people from the Temple of Uk'otoa. (And in the "can you answer the call" part the eye on the falcion moves) I have not been disappointed by watching the opening in a 0.25 speed.
