Obscure Dragons and Dungeons
by Corey Wetzel
Hello everybody and thanks for checking out my podcast, Obscure Dragons and Dungeons or Odd for short. A podcast dedicated to exploring some obscure and forgotten creatures from previous editions of Dungeons and Dragons that aren't in 5e and even some that I don't see a lot about from 5th edition. I will be doing brief overviews of several different monsters per episode and deeper dives on specific creatures with guests to help get a perspective of someone who maybe does not know about them. I do hope you all enjoy it as I am having a ton of fun making it and be sure to tell your friends too!
Episodes

Episode 30 - Rediscovering Lillendi
Hail adventurers. This episode is a little shorter than you may be used to. That is because there is only 1 creature in it and I just didn't have time to find more that fit the theme. Next episode in the Rediscovering line will have 2 creatures. Thanks again to Ross for editing the show and…

This episode is all about populating your world with semi natural creatures akin to snakes, big cats, snails or hamsters. That's right! We got Jaculis, Krenshar, Flail Snails and Miniature Giant Space Hamsters! This episode would not be possible if it weren't for our new editor Ross West! You can...

Episode 26 - History of Slaad

-
Ep 25 - History of Myconids
Sorry for the long wait! I have gotten so lethargic that editing was the last on my mind. Luckily, an editor reached out to me via reddit! Now we can continue to create these episodes, and I don't have to worry about editing anything. Enjoy
-
Episode 24 - Rediscovering Beholderkin
Sorry for the late upload. I'm still trying to figure out if I want this to be weekly or bi weekly. Also, Emily got a new mic! Bare with us as we get our setup figured out enough to make it sounds good for your delicate ears.
-
Episode 23 - History of Couatl

Episode 22 - Great Wheel Cosmology
We are trying anew setup which will hopefully be a lot clearer audio wise and less ear grating. This episode is an introductory episode to reference whenever you are confused about how the planes in DnD 5e actually work. you've heard us talk about a few planes before, so here's a breakdown of the...
-
Episode 21 - History of Otyughs

Episode 20 - History of Mind Flayers
Happy holidays everyone! Sorry that we took a hiatus. Between the holidays and some stuff happening in our personal life, we had to put the podcast on the backburner. But now, we're back!

-
Episode 19 - Planar Dragons
So Fizbans came out recently and it took a little bit but we finally got around to another dragon episode. This ones on some more dragons that just aren't in Fizbans. We got Blight Dragons, Chaos Dragons and Howling dragons. Haven't heard of them? Well neither have I until researching this. Grab...
-
Episode 18 - History of Nagas
Sorry for the delay on this episode! Things got a little crazy over the weekend and I just didn't have time to edit. For this one, Emily had decided to research Nagas. I'm very glad she did because I didn't realize just how strong these snake creatures were in previous editions.
-
Episode 17 - Rediscovering Cats
Cats. Cats. Cats. You either love them or hate them. DnD might just justify your feelings towards these creatures. You may end up loving Tressyms or Sabu Lords while hating Luck Eaters or Kamadans. Regardless, we hope you don't hate this episode.
-
Episode 16 - History of Vampires
Our second (late) Halloween spooktacular is now complete with the look back at Vampires. Turns out, Vampires are full of lore and history and cool powers! Who knew! Join us as we traverse the previous editions to dredge up whatever information we can that you might not know about Vampires!

-
Episode 13 - Rediscovering Birds - Axe Beak, Chaos Roc, Utoyasukata, Zygraat and Abrian
do you really need to know what birds are? No. So we added an extra lost bird to the mix. Axe beaks are like Terror Birds, Chaos Rocs shoot lasers, Utoyasukata are blood mages, Zygraats might not actually be birds and Abrians are the OG Abyssal Chicken.
-
Episode 12 - Rediscovering Living Spells
Living spells are unique amongst the creatures in that they don't naturally exist. Emily and I, Corey, go into some of the lore behind them and as to how and why they exist. We even have a little surprise at the end of the episode. Thanks to everyone listening to this podcast even as we try to...
-
Episode 11 - History of Chimeras
Since we have a new co host, my lovely girlfriend Emily, I decided to let here lead the research and hosting of this episode. She originally wanted to do a Greek Mythology thing but she eventually settled on one of DnDs most notorious predator. The Chimera. We talk about the Chimera from 2e, 3.5...
-
Episode 10 - Rediscovering Fey. Glouras, Ragewalkers and Kelpies

Episode 7 - Rediscovering Fish. Stalking catfish, Floating Eye, Verm and Lemon Fish
Dr. Seuss may have been onto something with the "1 fish, 2 fish, red fish, blue fish" lines. Dungeons and Dragons has some very interesting land creatures, but what about those that dwell in the deep? This episode dives into fish of various sizes and shapes. We got fish that are watching you…

Episode 6 - Rediscovering Rats! Dire rats, Osquips, Vapor rats and Ash rats
Lets talk rats. These little furry creatures are either vermin or pets. No in between in most peoples eyes. However, in DnD, these critters are far more sinister than simple rats. We have 4 rats this episode. Rats that spit fire, rats that turn into clouds, rats that are B I G and rats that are B…

Episode 5 Oozes - Original episode 1
Sorry bout the mess. This was originally the first episode of the podcast but, it just wasn't up to my standards. Its got a little on Fission slime, Stone pudding, Bloodfire ooze and slithering hoards. The information ion this episode isn't great so I removed it. Now, I'm deciding to put it back…

Episode 4 - Rediscovering Guardinals - Lupinals, Avorals and Leonals
Lions, Tigers, Bears OH MY! These celestial animal people are known as Guardinals and are the protectors of animals and Elysium. We do a dive into Guardinals this episode but we also go into a little bit of Elysium and the House of Nature within it. If you're listening on itunes or apple podcast...
-
Episode 3 - Rediscovering Catastrophic Dragons - Blizzard and Typhoon
This episode is a bit longer than the previous and waaaaay better produced. HERE BE DRAGONS! We have 2 dragons this episode. The Blizzard dragon and the Typhoon Dragon. I also go into these legendary elemental dragons lairs and regional effects! With your support, I am now doing a dice giveaway....
-
Episode 2 - Rediscovering Undead - Before the Rework
Just the same as the ooze episode. This episode about undead just is not up to my standards so i removed it. This decision muddies up my order of episodes so again, sorry about that. After I rework the undead episode, it should all be back in order.
-
Episode 1 - Rediscovering Oozes (Reworked and polished) - Ghaunadan, Flareater, Bloodfire Ooze and Slithering Hoard
This was originally intended to be the pilot episode of the podcast but it just wasn't up to par with my standards. I removed it and re recorded and edited it just because. You may have noticed that some of the episodes don't make sense chronologically speaking so this is me trying to explain it.…
