Intelligence Check

With their passage secured, our adventurers are left to their own devices aboard the ship. Which is generally just a bad idea. Kort enjoys some drinks while Tor suns himself on deck. But just when it seems like the rest of the trip is going to be all cocktails and skimpily clad dwarves, they learn one of the crew members has gone missing.

Despite having no qualifications other than disappearing a few people themselves, our adventurers take it upon themselves to investigate. Blag and Kort search for clues and question witnesses. Meanwhile Rath and Tor take a different approach and sleep on the job. Will Kort resist his urges to steal from the victim of the crime? Will Tor put some clothes back on? Fingers crossed! It's time for some IC NCIS!

Having solved their first batch of tasks with ingenuity and just a touch of poison, our adventures are set to take on their final naval odd jobs. Of course, they'll do so using their unique style of problem solving. Decide for yourself if you should be impressed or appalled with how they utilize boxing, pyramid schemes, and fight clubs to achieve their goals. And here you thought this podcast was about dungeons and dragons!

Batten the hatches, get on the mainmast, and tie some knots ye scurvy dogs! It’s time for high seas adventure! After chasing Jade through the Red Halls, our adventurers find themselves on a ship that has set out to sea with Jade nowhere to be found. With their gold left in their bunks, the team is forced to work to pay for their passage.

The crew of the ship is astute enough to not give our adventurers any important tasks, so they are left with a series of odd jobs and personal requests to take care of. In a burst of inspiration, or maybe just laziness, they concoct one of their most ridiculous plans yet.

Avast! Abaft the beam! Anchor's aweigh! All aboard the Intelligence Check Cruise Line! Where we guarantee you might not get food poisoning!

Don’t you just hate it when you travel and get home only to find your place has been trashed by a giant worm monster? Having realized the hard way that Rath should have hired some pest control services, our adventurers got out of that dungeon in a hurry!

After all that fleeing, the party is about to get a visit from an old friend that's going to prompt a lot more cardio. These guys are going to be in great shape after all this! It could be the start to a new exercise fad- Get fit now by running from ravenous monsters, dodging giant spinning blades, climbing ropes and doing bad Mrs. Doubtfire impressions! Time to find out which of our adventurers is the biggest loser!

Having found Alano, things are a bit tense at the end of Rath's dungeon. What with all the bodies, and Rath being shot by an arrow. Will our adventurers complete their mission to bring Alano back to the Red Halls? Or will they be themselves and make rash decisions?

This situation may just be out of their control however, and things escalate quickly. Tor calls the Thunder, almost. And Kort mostly lands an Airplane! reference. Looks like he picked the wrong week to stop drinking (get it?). Hopefully Rath has more liability waivers around for the serious bodily harm coming their way!

After successfully defending the Red Halls, our adventurers are given a quest by Anivari. Could this be the next step toward unraveling the mysterious riddle? Or is she just trying to get rid of them after hearing how Tor wanted to use the Climodile? The team gets a guided tour of Rath's business. And he gets a pointed lesson about consequences.

I love it when a plan comes together. (A-Team) Now I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country. (Patton) Aye, fight and you may die. Run and you'll live -- at least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom! (Braveheart) Only the dead are without fear. (The Magnificent Seven) At my signal, unleash hell. (Gladiator) Oh, no. You did NOT shoot that green shit at me! (Independence Day)

Happy 4th of July to our listeners in the US! Now that we have you pumped for the upcoming battle, enjoy this episode of Intelligence Check! Bring the Noise! (Hot Fuzz)

Having survived a serious of dastardly traps, our adventurers emerge from the tunnels to find the Red Halls. What was recently an abandoned ruin has been transformed into a city full of people, and apparently the restored headquarters of the Onyx Shields. Kort spies a figure in the distance with a striking similarity to Rath. Could it be Anivari, the sister Rath thought dead?

Their touching reunion is quickly overshadowed by the impending Pearl Dagger attack. The party rallies to defend the city's people, and they consider strategies that have little regard for the city itself. Will they come up with a solid plan? And why would the Onyx Shields let these guys call the shots? Responsibility is hard when there's a Climodile around!

In this episode we attempt to answer some of life's deeper questions. We ponder what lengths we will go to in order to avoid pain. We explore the nature of hunger. We reflect on our greed for magical crap. Is it's allure more powerful than our love of family? You'd think that one would be easy.

We also contemplate our perception of mortality, and what tricks the DM can pull to get around that. Join us on our exploration of self, and our journey of using episode descriptions to make these dummies seem smarter than they really are.

After realizing that Rath's sister could be in mortal danger, the team decides to brave the tunnels in an attempt to reach the Red Halls ahead of the Pearl Daggers. Little do they know that they are about to face a series of dastardly puzzles. Will they spend way too much time on one trap room? Of course they will.

Join our adventurers as they face horrific puns, almost getting their boots wet, and their most baffling foe yet! It's a picture. Yep, just a picture. Nothing evil about it. And yet, it may be the thing that finally breaks them. It's time to test our collective patience!
