The world has changed forever. Purple fog hangs thick in the air as two planes of existence fight for dominance after Alyssum's defeat. Without sunlight, crops wither, society crumbles, and strange new threats emerge from the shadows.Vance Ironside and Dolomir Sedrin find themselves outside the walls of Union City, the capital of the Oathmakers Coalition, searching for information about the dark entities that have invaded their reality. What was once a gleaming center of governance has descended into chaos in just one month—trash piles up in wealthy districts, tents line the streets, and crime runs rampant without consequence.When they finally meet their contact, Balin Zenwish, they discover something far more terrifying than they anticipated. The spectral beings plaguing the city look like ordinary people but cause searing psychic pain with their touch. When defeated, they simply melt away, leaving no trace behind. Only radiant damage and holy water seem effective against them.But the true horror reveals itself in the resistance headquarters beneath an abandoned bar. There, reunited with their old ally Essel, they make a chilling discovery: not only can these entities appear human, but they can perfectly impersonate people—even those who have existed for years before the dimensional merge. A simple test with holy water exposes infiltrators hiding among trusted friends, fundamentally changing everything they thought they knew about this new threat.The dimensional collision hasn't just transformed the physical world; it's created a crisis of trust where nothing can be taken at face value. As our heroes plan their next move toward the mysterious magical concentration in the northeast district, they must now question every relationship and every face they encounter.Who can you trust when darkness has not just fallen on the land, but potentially on the people closest to you?

S02E13 - Tentacle Medical
Welcome to a mind-bending journey through the veil of reality! After narrowly escaping an ambush, our heroes make their way into Silverkeep—the glittering metropolis of Soldeus built upon natural silver deposits that attract every mover and shaker in the realm.There, they meet Galora, a halfling who presents them with magical gifts and leads them to an underground meeting with a secret organization. The elven wizard Karim, orc commander Dulik, and dimensional scout Daith (our special guest played by Rev from The Crit Show) reveal their plan: instead of fighting Alyssum's endless illusions in the material world, they'll strike directly at their source by entering her own ethereal realm.Armed with enchanted weapons and magical tomes that allow Dolo to transmute his fire magic into more effective elements, our party prepares to cross between planes. But when the ritual to open the portal succeeds, only Vance, Dolo, and Daith are pulled through before the gateway seals—leaving them isolated in a world where thought shapes reality.Inside Alyssum's mansion, normal rules no longer apply. Windows only break when you truly believe they can. Traps spring not just from physical triggers but from expectations. As our heroes navigate this uncanny environment, they trigger a slide trap that sends them tumbling into a cathedral-like chamber filled with spectral warriors, their heads bowed in silent prayer before an altar drenched in blood.Just when they think they might escape unnoticed, Alyssum herself appears, revealing her sinister plans. She claims Vance and Daith have unwittingly taken portions of her power, which she intends to reclaim, while Dolo's magic will be drained to create portals throughout the land. The episode culminates in a tense standoff as Daith's arrow strikes true, awakening the fiery eyes of every spectral being in the cathedral.Can our heroes triumph in a realm where Alyssum controls the very fabric of reality? Tune in to find out, and don't miss us at Gen Con where Monster Monster will be performing live shows that promise to be unforgettable!
