This episode starts with a quick update on the status of the podcast followed by our first behind the scenes discussion episode from Patreon. This covers our first 17 episodes of Season 1, which introduced the characters, the world, and saw them overcome being in direct competition with each other to come together as a team. If you haven't already listened to our first season we hope that you will check it out. You'll hear our initial growing pains, get to meet characters that we love, and join us for a story that Kyle lovingly crafted. And you'll see just how much Lauren joining the cast in Season 2 made us all better at roleplaying!      Are you enjoying the show? Please help us grow and tell someone about it!

It's a vicious fight to take out the remaining guards blocking the party's path to treasure. Hap charges in! And his dice rolls aren't having it. But he keeps trying to hit people in the legs to the best of his tiny height ability. Thankfully our tiny heroes were able to get the drop on them because they really need that surprise round! Plus Flukey's ferret is just brutal to their enemies. So that helps. Later they go down a well less than gracefully. Then down a bit of a hole of high pitched character voices. Afterwards things come to a rather abrupt ending that ties directly into a very important moment from one of our Season 1 character's stories. We don't want to get into spoilers here but recognize it's not going to make sense if you haven't listened to our first season. So we invite you to hop into our discord and let us explain it all while apologizing for the cliffhanger ending to the adventure! Or perhaps we can entice you to give those original episodes a listen!    The Discord server is https://dis

Our party has picked a completely unnecessary fight with a wizard and is having a really tough time with it! Maybe it's a good thing the players haven't become too attached to their new characters.   Flukey takes a pause to restring his bow. Chance keeps trying to split the party. Namee tries out a few animal forms. And Hap drags the enemy down to his little tiny short dragonborn level.     Are you enjoying the show? Please help us grow and tell someone about it!

With their ambush complete, the party now has a hot lead on a heist. Being the bandits that they are, they decide to keep that tip for themselves rather than share it with their employers. Time to hunt down a big score! After a little bit of a rest.    They venture out to the castle believed to hold great treasure. It's a very castle-like castle, complete with guards, towers with windows, and towers without windows. How suspicious.   But these bandits are not going to let a couple window-less towers scare them away from loot so they're going in! Flukey is bad at a lot of things. Hap rushes in. Chance tries to tip the scales in his favor. And Namee is surprisingly tame knowing how this character will evolve!      Are you enjoying the show? Please help us grow and tell someone about it!

It's time to meet our adventurers for this story. Yes, they're right in front of you. Look down a bit. They're all very tiny. Previously a patreon exclusive recorder roughly 3 years ago, these randomly generated characters are ready to steal some food! Any yes, one of them may be very familiar to listeners.   First we have Chance Battlebeard played by Kevin who is a very punchy caster. Next we have Harrison Hazard played by Ben. He's a dragonborn ranger from the swamps who has a murderous rage. Playing what will become an early version of Namee, Mike is here to introduce us to the original version of the thin and wildly beautiful penguin suit wearing gnome. And finally we have Flukey, Frank's halfling ranger who is searching for his stolen musical instrument. He's a dancer and a romantic folks.   Let's see what kind of plan they devise for their brigand quest!    Are you enjoying the show? Please help us grow and tell someone about it!

  Previously a Patreon exclusive adventure, join members of the Intelligence Check cast and their friend Frank as they roll up new randomized characters for a short tie-in adventure. This is a session zero in which the players make a series of rolls to randomly determine the characters they will be playing. Those characters are then revealed by the DM Kyle at the end of the episode. Recorded quite a bit before we recorded episode 57- Heroic Moment, this adventure features the behind the scenes debut of a very early version of a character who has seen significant changes and grown dear to us all!    Are you enjoying the show?

It's the final episode of our first mini-arc and Arkin has a soup delivery for some guards barring their path. Thistlyn also has a delivery, of death! It's a death delivery, because she brings death to someone. You get it. And Fliminald would just appreciate it if everyone could calm down.  The party comes across some unexpected surprises. Flimmy negotiates. And Thistlyn name drops. It's been an odd adventure but we're sure it will all make for a great song for Thistlyn's solo debut!   Are you enjoying the show?
