   Fandom Fridays 2026: Salerra Dungeons & Dragons

   In this episode, adventurers listen to their host, Thomas, as he weaves a delightful Dungeons & Dragons story blending sorcery and the supernatural. However, be prepared, because this Dungeons & Dragons session won't be like the others; it will be a custom-made world of his own named Salerra, filled with magic and wonder. If you like fandoms like Pokémon and Harry Potter, this might be the podcast for you, as it blends concepts of both worlds, including various magical familiars and magic hidden in the real world. This story will take place on one of the wondrous floating islands that harbor libraries with secret knowledge held within, hidden from prying eyes. Join us as the players try to unravel the secrets of the unassuming library. The Ocean County Library is getting ready for FanNation 2026 on October 3!
