It’s A Mimic!

In this special April Fools Day special, the It's A Mimic! podcast gets back around the table to have some crazy arcane shenanigans with the one and only ne'er-do-well (as in they never do well) thieves guild: The Black Hand.  That's okay, though, as the guild has sent three of its top agents, Human Bard Inspara Dice (played by Kyle), Copper Dragonborn Fighter Kalope "Kall" (played by Megan), and Lizardfolk Ranger Nuxlokkusk Ugurqozk Grarzixxausk (dammit...  blame his player, DAVE) - to retrieve the "Eye of the Beholder" a powerful elemental gem.  And where is it, you might ask?  At the helm of the Sovereign's Song, a lightning rail servicing the route from the City of Towers to the monstrous country Droaam.  Dungeon Masters Dan, Adam, and Terry have put together a fun little challenge on The Sovereign's Song, but none of our illustrious DM's know what the former has prepped.  It's bound to be a chaotic romp in an It's A Mimic! actual play of Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition!

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast returns to the pages of Xanathar’s Guide to Everything to cover the last subclass listed there, before looking at the pages of Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything to see what new Monastic Traditions there are for Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition.  It’s not all punch punch kick kick, though, as the panel of Dungeon Masters has discovered.  So grab your brass knuckles and put on your gi, as this episode launches into three more subclasses, as well as the Optional Class Features offered in Tasha’s.

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast is going to return to the topic of Dragonborn, because Fizban's Treasury of Dragons brought us new updates for the ten variations from the Player's Handbook, as well as 5 brand new ones!

This episode of this It’s A Mimic podcast is going to bring us back to the Forgotton Realms for the third Lore episode in a row and the rest of the mighty world outside of Sword Coast. Although the focus for Dungeons and Dragons 5e seems to be away from it, this panel of Dungeon Masters seek to better understand Faerun, Kara-Tur and the rest of the adventurous possibilities Abeir-Toril (or Toril for short) provides as well as a look into the biggest cheese on the whole planet…

Last time the It’s A Mimic! podcast discussed Dungeon Mastering, the panel of Dungeon Masters covered power creep and why you should manage the mechanics of Dungeons & Dragons more closely.  This time, the DM’s tear apart the stat blocks and see what two decades of experience have taught them about reading between the lines when it comes to deciphering monster stats.

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast is going to zoom in on the hags that you can’t find in the Dungeons and Dragons Monster Manual: the Annis Hag, the Bheur Hag, and the Dusk Hag.  The panel of Dungeon Masters has stirred the pot looking for every tasty morsel of information to be found, but some of the answers are definitely more horrifying than the others.

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast takes us back to Xanathar’s Guide to Everything for a little while, so we can finish off the last Rogue subclass that’s left in that book.  The panel of Dungeon Masters also dives into the pages of Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything, where they look at the subclasses presented there, as well as the Optional Class Features for Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition.

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast looks at the pages of Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything to see what new Druidic Circles there are for Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition.  It’s not all fur and trees, though, as the panel of Dungeon Masters has discovered.  And of course, the Optional Class Features in Tasha’s will get a spotlight, too.

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast is going to crack open Volo’s Guide to Monsters and see what 5th Edition has to bring to the table when it comes to some of the reptilian anthropomorphic playable races.  Okay, so Kobolds aren’t strictly reptilian, but they’re definitely a step further away from dragons than Dragonborn are, and we know from previous editions that Kobolds shed their skin like other reptiles and are cold-blooded, so this panel of Dungeon Masters is counting them as being just as reptilian as Lizardfolk and Yuan-ti Purebloods.  Today’s episode is going to focus on these playable races from a Player perspective, so if you’d like deep dives into each of these races, we covered Kobolds in depth in Episodes 50 and 106, Lizardfolk in E112, and Yuan-ti in Episodes E113 and E114.  These episodes are all available on your podcast apps or our YouTube page, as well.
