Intelligence Check

https://www.intelligencecheck.com/feed.xml

Intelligence Check is an actual play series that's big on the laughs. It's a light-hearted show, using D&D 5e rules, set in the homebrew world of the Lichstone Empire. We've got dark and mysterious backgrounds, defensive elephants, weird gambling, oddly specific kobold slaughter, and tentacles. Way too many tentacles.

Episode 124- Gin and Toxic

Wednesday Apr 20, 2022

The party has entered the Plane of Air to fight the djinn Al'Qir and everyone's going to get high! No, not on drugs. What are you talking about? They're going to be up really high in the air. It's a flying fight.

With control over their own gravity, and the ground far below them, our adventurers are joining the mile high club! Hold on, what are you saying? That means they're going to do what?! There's no time for that! They are literally about to fight one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Don't be gross.

With Al'Qir already channeling his destructive energy, and some generally shitty weather hindering their progress, will the party be able to reach him in time? What sage wisdom will Lauren share about rolling dice? Who will surprisingly lead the charge into battle? And why is Way so considerate of everyone's time? Maybe the oxygen is a little thin flying around in this air plane! No, air plane, with a space between, not the big metal thing with wings you fly in.

Episode 123- Chosen Points

Wednesday Apr 06, 2022

With the heavenly meet and greet completed, the party regroups to catch up and plan their next move. They've secured new powers in their fight against the first and had some major developments in the process. One of those is a shocking revelation Violexx is happy to share. The other development also has a momentous impact, but Rady may not be up to mentioning it to the group! Seeing as how the apocalypse is about to kick off, the adventurers for once have a good reason to gloss over important story points!

Will the party be impressed with Way's new tattoo? How is Rady dealing with the trauma of his unexpected patron visit? What are the charges on a long-distance inter-planar phone call? How will Jag do with a little run-in with gravity? And is anyone surprised that the gnome in a flightless bird suit can soar through the air gracefully? Is this a D&D podcast or an old saturday morning cartoon?!

Episode 122- A Way Back

Wednesday Mar 23, 2022

Our adventurers are in heaven seeking to become Chosen of various gods, and so far it's going surprisingly well! Name and Jag were up first. They both made some new friends and became honorary Chosen, gifted with powers to help fight against the evil First. Now it's time for the rest of the party to meet up with their gods. Let's hope it goes as well as it did with the first two gods!

Up first is Way! What situation will he find himself in, and will he pass the test placed before him? And will he accept some fashion suggestions from his companions? Then Rady gives it a go, petitioning the god of booze. But did he read the entire description of what that being is the god of? And finally Violexx visits with her deity, someone she is already well acquainted with. What staggering gift will Violexx be offered during their meeting? It's time for some monumental choices to be made!

Episode 121- Line and Order Special Namee Unit

Wednesday Mar 09, 2022

So the party went to Heaven. And they did it without any of them dying! That's neat! And after confronting Palino about his shitty behavior, including an ineffective but meaningful kick to the ass from Namee, it seems they're going to be allowed to hang out for a bit. If you've got a visitor's pass to Heaven you might as well put it to good use!

With the help of Natasha, our adventurers start making some house calls to gods to petition them for their favor. Being selected as a Chosen of a god will go a long way towards being able to stop the First and their apocalyptic plans. First up, Namee! His god visit turns out just a bit different than any of the party would have expected! Then Jag gives it a go by picking from a whole menu of available gods. And he has some real breakthroughs! It's all very touching.

Episode 120- The Gang Goes to Heaven

Wednesday Feb 23, 2022

Betrayal! A murder! Additional betrayal! Then there's some unusual horses and people riding those horses in ominous ways! And that was all just in the last episode! Now our party has to deal with the fallout of all those events as they find themselves left in the room with the leaders of the enemy faction. And it's just a bit awkward. But with an impending apocalypse at hand they are all able to move forward, and take the next steps needed to try to save the world. Well, except for Violexx's parents. They are still the worst. That hasn't changed.

With the recently revealed deceptions, will our adventurers be able to trust anyone again? Is there a certain accent that gets treated with more suspicion than it has in the past? And what character accent will completely break Kyle? It's time to rally the mortal forces and work out their differences! Or at least give it a shot before everyone dies!
