    Season 1: OneShot Forgotten Realms - Garden of Children
    Apr 7 2026
    For days, the sanctuary of Eldath has felt dimmer, its fountains quieter, its gardens strangely still.

    When the party arrives, they find Sister Miranel — once the embodiment of gentle calm — pacing the stone paths with red‑rimmed eyes and hands that won’t stop trembling. The soft green robes of Eldath hang loose on her frame, as though she’s forgotten to eat. She clutches a string of prayer beads so tightly they creak.

    She tells you of her failure in a voice barely above a whisper. A sacred grove under her protection was defiled by poachers, its waters muddied, its peace shattered. No one blames her — no one but herself. In her grief, she has turned to an old legend, one spoken of only in half‑remembered hymns: the Garden of the Children, a hidden sanctuary deep within the flooded marshes where Eldath’s earliest disciples tended a place of perfect serenity.

    Somewhere within that drowned paradise lies the Amulet of Still Waters, a relic said to restore harmony to any heart burdened by guilt. Miranel believes this relic is her only hope of redemption. She begs you to retrieve it before others do — for word of the garden has spread. Rival adventurers, treasure hunters, and zealots have already begun slipping into the marshes, each with their own motives and none with your sense of honor. Some seek profit, others power, and a few whisper that the amulet’s peace is a lie.

    The marsh awaits: a place where lilies bloom in spirals against the current, where ancient statues weep sap, and where the echoes of lost Children drift like mist between the reeds. Somewhere in that drowned world lies a relic that could save a soul… or doom it.

    And you are not the only ones hunting it.

  • Season 1, Episode 5 (Dec 5, 2025): Holidays in the Dwarven Village

    Season 1, Episode 5 (Dec 5, 2025): Holidays in the Dwarven Village
    Feb 4 2026
    In this full‑session episode of Geeks with Dice, the Rift Kickers continue their chaotic escape from Imbris and head straight into a festive but dangerous detour.

    After uncovering cult secrets, retrieving stolen herbs, and drifting downriver toward the Squid Pro Quo, the party receives a new mission from Dara Vane: investigate a mysterious disturbance at a hidden Dwarven Workshop deep in the snowy foothills.

    The group arrives to find enchanted pine forests, reindeer stables, flickering magical wards, and a workshop that feels suspiciously like a fantasy‑themed North Pole. As they explore, the players level up to Level 8, sharing their new abilities, feats, and questionable build choices—from grappler shenanigans to lucky rolls to Simi’s ongoing identity crisis.

    Before long, the holiday cheer is interrupted by a pack of corrupted wolves breaching the failing ward. Initiative is rolled, chaos erupts, and the Rift Kickers dive into a winter‑themed battle filled with jokes, misfires, and the usual blend of strategy and absurdity.
    This episode blends combat, character development, holiday vibes, and plenty of table banter—perfect for fans of actual‑play storytelling with a comedic edge.

  • Season 1, Episode 4 (Nov 30, 2025): Recap of Shattered Heart

    Season 1, Episode 4 (Nov 30, 2025): Recap of Shattered Heart
    Feb 2 2026
    In this episode of Geeks with Dice, KJ the Comic Guy and Security Dan dive into the latest session of their Rift Kickers: Shattered Heart campaign.

    After five sessions navigating a deceptively small sewer dungeon, the party finally emerges—complete with bags of holding full of bats, guano, and questionable decision‑making. The hosts recap the group’s chaotic progress, including their soft spot for Dave the hapless potion‑runner, Sweet Pea and Bubbles’ comedic loop through a pointless tunnel, and the dramatic confrontation with a mire sea hag tied to Bubbles’ backstory.

    The encounter sparks one of Bubbles’ rare moments of fury, giving the table a standout roleplay moment. They also explore the nuances of multiclassing in D&D, using Simi’s unusual barbarian/paladin split as a case study. The conversation touches on character identity, mechanical trade‑offs, and how different players approach immersion and storytelling.

    Looking ahead, the group prepares for their final session of 2025 and a special holiday one‑shot. KJ teases a more tactical, map‑heavy adventure inspired by his long‑running Dungeon in a Box collection—complete with minis, terrain, and a festive twist.

    Nov 17 2025
    Season 1, Episode 3 (recorded November 16, 2025)

    On this episode, KJ and Security Dan talk about the recent Todd Stashwick/Nerd Circus run events for Pablon Foundation (pablove.org) as well as for Todd's ProgCore RPG system.

    We expound on the world of immersion in game play, and direct listeners to recent interviews with Kelly and Monty - The Dungeon Dudes, and with Deborah Ann Wol on their Tales of Woodcreek project and the power of game immersion.

    The episode ends with a recap of the Rift Kickers' last two sessions, where they delve into the Gloam, the seedy underbelly of Imbrus, and journey through the sewers - when they are not looking for the next meal.
