Content Warnings, please read carefully and stay safe:
In the INTRO (10:02-15:10), the following: disease (plague), death, suffering populace, waning natural resources, capitalism, imperialism (overthrown). These are referenced in the episode but not explicit.
In the episode: ableist constructs (determined via dice rolls), language, class differences

Some feats and skills have had house-rules alterations to fit with the competitive nature of The Proving that aren't always explicitly stated in the recording - these will be outlined in the one-shot once available at the end of the limited series.
