The Adventure Zone: Candlenights in Tacoma!

December 29, 2017 11:16 AM

Our heroes reconvene at an important site from their storied past to traverse a perilous dungeon. What awaits them is far more deadly than they could have imagined -- and far more ... festive?

I really like the running thread of Clint just completely forgetting basic cleric shit in the live shows and either mis-remembering what the spells are called but getting the gist of it, or going completely hog wild with shit that cannot and should not be done and Griffin just being like, ok- you can't do that, but I will allow this. The high school AU live show was like that with Lycanthropy. That spell is not one Merle had, but Griffin was like, "I'll allow a disguise self? you'll have all the same stats and just be like, teen wolf?" and here the whole summoning Gundren thing was ridiculous but Griffin found a way to allow for like, a tenth of the effect Clint wanted. He's a very good DM.

I can't imagine trying to DM an adventure designed to be played out in a very exact amount of time on stage in front of a huge crowd. Griffin is fantastic and surely must be utilizing every DM trick imaginable to on-the-fly produce a fun complete story that takes up exactly the amount of time they have.

Also, the The The Adventure Zone Zone podfest panel hasn't been published yet, right? Has anyone said when they intend to put that out yet?

I love love love the image of Magnus and Taako dressed up as elves. Almost as much as I love love love the idea of Merle as Santa.

They haven't posted (or announced) it yet. I'm assuming after the Amnesty arc.
