  • Season 1: OneShot Forgotten Realms - Garden of Children
    Apr 7 2026
    For days, the sanctuary of Eldath has felt dimmer, its fountains quieter, its gardens strangely still.

    When the party arrives, they find Sister Miranel — once the embodiment of gentle calm — pacing the stone paths with red‑rimmed eyes and hands that won’t stop trembling. The soft green robes of Eldath hang loose on her frame, as though she’s forgotten to eat. She clutches a string of prayer beads so tightly they creak.

    She tells you of her failure in a voice barely above a whisper. A sacred grove under her protection was defiled by poachers, its waters muddied, its peace shattered. No one blames her — no one but herself. In her grief, she has turned to an old legend, one spoken of only in half‑remembered hymns: the Garden of the Children, a hidden sanctuary deep within the flooded marshes where Eldath’s earliest disciples tended a place of perfect serenity.

    Somewhere within that drowned paradise lies the Amulet of Still Waters, a relic said to restore harmony to any heart burdened by guilt. Miranel believes this relic is her only hope of redemption. She begs you to retrieve it before others do — for word of the garden has spread. Rival adventurers, treasure hunters, and zealots have already begun slipping into the marshes, each with their own motives and none with your sense of honor. Some seek profit, others power, and a few whisper that the amulet’s peace is a lie.

    The marsh awaits: a place where lilies bloom in spirals against the current, where ancient statues weep sap, and where the echoes of lost Children drift like mist between the reeds. Somewhere in that drowned world lies a relic that could save a soul… or doom it.

    And you are not the only ones hunting it.

  • Season 1, Episode 6 (Feb 1, 2026): New Year and RiftKickers Updates
    Feb 9 2026
    In this lively return to the mics, KJ the Comic Guy and Security Dan catch up after a long hiatus and dive straight into the chaos of the tabletop world. They unpack the latest turbulence at Wizards of the Coast and Hasbro, including declining revenues, digital-count controversies, and speculation about a potential sale of WotC.

    The conversation shifts to the meteoric rise of Darrington Press and Daggerheart, the shifting RPG landscape, and what that might mean for the future of Rift Kickers. The hosts also spotlight recent Kickstarters, including Modern Problems Require Fantasy Solutions and Horizon Forbidden West: Seeds of Rebellion, before recapping the absolute pandemonium of the latest Rift Kickers session.

    From seagull‑based trench runs to nat‑20 romance rolls, accidental cult recruitment, and the establishment of Hard Shell Hooch 2.0, the party’s return to Red Haven is everything you’d expect — and everything the city guard feared.

  • Season 1, Episode 5 (Dec 5, 2025): Holidays in the Dwarven Village
    Feb 4 2026
    In this full‑session episode of Geeks with Dice, the Rift Kickers continue their chaotic escape from Imbris and head straight into a festive but dangerous detour.

    After uncovering cult secrets, retrieving stolen herbs, and drifting downriver toward the Squid Pro Quo, the party receives a new mission from Dara Vane: investigate a mysterious disturbance at a hidden Dwarven Workshop deep in the snowy foothills.

    The group arrives to find enchanted pine forests, reindeer stables, flickering magical wards, and a workshop that feels suspiciously like a fantasy‑themed North Pole. As they explore, the players level up to Level 8, sharing their new abilities, feats, and questionable build choices—from grappler shenanigans to lucky rolls to Simi’s ongoing identity crisis.

    Before long, the holiday cheer is interrupted by a pack of corrupted wolves breaching the failing ward. Initiative is rolled, chaos erupts, and the Rift Kickers dive into a winter‑themed battle filled with jokes, misfires, and the usual blend of strategy and absurdity.
    This episode blends combat, character development, holiday vibes, and plenty of table banter—perfect for fans of actual‑play storytelling with a comedic edge.
