Episode 212: Monster Mash - The Kelpie

In this episode, we're joined by Ian of the Undercommon Taste podcast for an exploration of a fantastical monster, and an oddly convenient die roll has us diving into one of his favorites: the kelpie of Scottish folklore! We chat about this criminally-underused creature's origins in water safety and its sneaky human-horse shapeshifting abilities, then build out two settings on the fly in the genres of paranormal romance and high fantasy. War crimes might take place.

 

Be sure to tune into the Undercommon Taste podcast, head over to the UCT Discord server, and check out all of the content on their Linktree at https://linktr.ee/undercommontaste.
