Hello Podwalkers,

Welcome back to another episode of the Goblin Lore Podcast! In addition to bringing you Part 2 of our discussion on psychographics and personality (check out Part 1!) we also have a giveaway! This giveaway is different than a lot of the ones we have done before. We are joined by Chris (aka Harmless Offering) who has a new project working at getting decks into players hands. He created a special flavorful Goblin Deck and you’ll have to listen to the intro to find out more!

After the intro Hobbes and Alex finish their discussion on psychographics and aesthetics when it comes to Magic Players before moving into the real world topic of personality characteristics. This includes looking more at both psychographics and personality characteristics as dimensions along a spectrum rather than a categorical approach. Today’s episode again mentions a lot of works previously done especially by Mark Rosewater.

As promised, we plan to keep these Mental Health Links available moving forward too. For general Mental Health the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) has great resources for people struggling with mental health concerns as well as their families. We also want to draw attention to this article on stigma from NAMI’s site.
