Antics are monthly “mini episodes” that are available for our $5 Patrons on Patreon. This is part 1 of a delightfully stupid two-parter. We are very close to having over 100 Patrons, so we wanted to share with you a taste of what becoming a Patron is like!

Put those boards in the sand and stop telling me to die in a library! It's time read about Races in D&D. We cover Humans, Halflings, Dwarves and Elves, as well as how to make up some cultures for your own races without busting your butt! Then the Lore Bard returns to talk to us about the beginnings of the Satanic Panic!

Ah, Chapter 8, Adventuring. As you will soon hear, this is my favorite chapter. I read it on holidays, with my family. We laugh, we cry, we sit in silence enraptured by its wonder. Resting! Vision! How much food you need to eat every SINGLE day! This chapter has it all, and it especially has the annoying parts! It's great.

Class is in session for you and apparently your mouse classmate. Did I intend to make a mouse classmate when I sat down to record this? I refuse to answer that question!! Anyways, this time we cover combat which basically never comes up when you play Dungeons & Dragons, it is very much an afterthought.
