Hello listeners! We are back from our holiday break and we want to welcome you to Episode 9, Session 05, Side A of the Lost Mines of Phandelver series! It’s the beginners adventure presented in the Dungeons and Dragons Starter Set.

In this series you’ll hear Alex play a character named Hal, who is a level 2 Bard when we meet him. Kolton decided to play Olo, a level 2 Tortle Barbarian. While Matt plays a level 2 Grung Wizard. Colin was DM’ing this game. We are using the Milestone leveling variant in this adventure, so the players are completely free to find paths to victory and resolution options outside of combat and murder to solve their problems.

In today’s sessions, the characters deal with the immediate aftermath surrounding their confrontation with the Red Brands. They collect themselves, make preparations, and then begin to plan their retribution against their new foes! Their first task is to go to the Sleeping Giant Inn.

Also, please forgive a small issue with the audio quality. You can definitely hear one of the cast member’s children crying in the background of some of the recording and it was not possible to remove it during the edits. All of you parents out there know what it’s like to have teething babies in the house, this was the case for said child. Don’t be mad. Just take pity on the poor kid.

Please, enjoy the show!
