episode 6: Bike Rides in the Rain
We're calling these early shows our Prequel Episodes, as they don't quite reflect the overall character of the show generally. We love them, though, as they help explain the rules as well as introduce you to some of our most memorable players and characters! Skip ahead to Season 1 if you must, but once you're hooked come on back and see how this wacky adventure all started!
[IMPORTANT LISTENER UPDATE: If you guys don't know, we had to let Scott Etter know he won't be welcome back on the show. At the beginning of Season Two, we address some of the specific reasons for this decision, both in a blog post but also a mention about it at the start of the first episode. The main thing you need to know is that he played Yifriti lawyer Yifram Silvertongue, and that he's no longer a member of the cast. For now we'll keep the episodes that he appeared on, but that may change at some point in the future.]
In this episode, Tacoma comedian Scott Etter joins the cast, playing Yifram Silvertongue, a Yifriti spy and mob lawyer. Anthony's character Rael meets up with Yifram and they get ready for the next character in the campaign.
Plus, the boys go on a crazy bike ride!
Mechanics in this episode:
Critical failures happen when you roll a 1 on a skill check. When Scott rolls a 1, Jeff rolls another 10-sided and rolls real low, which turns a regular botch into an epic failure. In this case it leads to a hilarious slapstick moment. Good times!
