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.

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!

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!

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.

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!
