Welcome to THAC0 . . . with Advantage! We’re two friends that have been playing D&D a long time. While we both love lots of other RPGs, D&D haunts our dreams, always lurking just beyond sight . . . in the shadows.
It’s all about those spooky monsters that make us feel that uncomfortable unsettling unnerving waver in the pit of our stomachs when they show up in our games. Ang and Jared talk about the scary monsters, the ones that should be scary, and why those monsters that do scare us make us feel that way.

It’s part 3 of A Magical Night. The crew of Gunny, Silas, and Ti are still getting ready for PROM. They’re also getting ready for the post prom ritual, or at least to stop the Wyrm Cult, get Meseme’s essence back, and reconstitute her, hopefully, if they don’t mess it up.
There’s a Suweet looking Gunny in this episode, an Urlis sighting, and some couple napping in this episode. Hopefully it all goes well for the Junior Guardians.
