Holly's DMing is such a joy to watch, and props to Jimmy for being so engaged in his first session. I was a bit bummed when Miitopia stopped, so it's great to have him alongside Holly for another adventure. There's so much personality in this group, can't wait to see where they go!
Well Bards can learn Cure Wounds as well, so Jimmy's pretty much their only option for healing. Which is quite ironic since he is the one who took most damage.
Love this! Steam Mephit: "Oh no it's the fire marshalls!" Wil: stepping forward, "Yes we are the fire marshalls, and this place looks sub-par." Steam Mephit: "Damn looks like we will have to kill them like last time." I laughed my soda up my nose!
Morgan Bright ik bards can cast healing spells but traditionaly they are support casters not healers I'm not sure but Jimmy doesn't seem like he's going to be the in the back seat cure wounds. So they dont have a dedicated healer.
Planescape was one of the campaign settings I enjoyed playing ever since originally came out in 2e, watching this brings back memories, loved cranium rats as enemies because they can always increase in challenge rating by adding more giving them more psionic powers
Planescape was my very first campaign setting. Once I'm done with some of these campaigns I'm running now, I think I will run a homebrewed game with Sigil as the starting point/hub of the whole campaign.
I love this so much! The characters are all great, especially our involuntary tank-bard, and Holly is an awesome DM. Really looking forward to the next episode
Jimmy seems to be following in the Nate school of being a new player: a bard who tends to prefer causing chaos. Hopefully he figures out he has access to healing spells, because they'll need that. But this is pretty interesting. I liked Nejma's personality and seeming to be happy to be away from the trouble she'd apparently caused back home. Reader is basically your standard robot sort of character but that's not a bad thing. And seeing Anna be the pragmatic, somewhat selfish rogue is also entertaining. Looking forward to seeing more and seeing where Holly takes this.
I've never heard of you before Holly but your DMing and group are refreshing, delightful and fun! I called Aughra's lair before you said Dark Crystal so I was proud of myself. lol. My first purchase long ago when I was a wee lad was the PLANESCAPE campaign setting. I had no idea how to run it and knew very little of DND. This will be a thrill to watch. What a clever and beautiful group of people you have. Definitely will keep watching and liking.

Great job Holly! I love DCA, and this is just great. And FYI, bards can have healing spells, and as he's a newb I don't have a problem tweaking some spells.
I’m already watching this on the twitch vod BUT I just wanted to drop by and give this guy a like and say how amazing it is!! We’re only one episode in and I’m in love with the characters already
Thank you for putting together such a warm and friendly game! I'm knew to the world of D&D and it's been a lot of fun learning the ropes via this campaign :D
I loved this!!! Can't wait to see more of these characters stumble around this setting. So much fun. Also I enjoyed all NPCs, even the enemies, I felt so bad for the little Steam Mephits.
You don't see everyday a Planescape adventure! I'm really hyped! So there WAS a problem with the video stuttering during the stream. Try to fix it for the next episode please!
I know it is was the first fight of the game, but I think, you could've gave those mobs 1/2(or 2/3) of cover, because they were surrounded by steam (hard to see and strike), to make this encounter more "intense" ;) Also, to prevent grapple, you can always choose to use your Dex(Acrobatic) check if your Str is garbage. One funny thing about Sleep spell, it's an AoE spell that has affect on everyone with in its radius of 20 ft. and Saturn are the first one, who should have been affected by it, because of his low HP :D
Nejma & Crown are basically Strix: The Sequel and I love it. Not to say they both are the same as Strix, but they are similar in quite a few ways and It's great.
This is so unique in the roleplay space right now, gave me the inspiration to finally and buy the Planescape PDF from dmsguild! Awesome to see Holly run her favorite setting, thank you so much, this is rad!
Haha you really think Chris is just gonna keep me in some vault for the rest of time when I could get out and cause more misery to the Waffle Crew? I think noooot
Great start! Holly, I instantly recognized Woolly from the first few words of your description, and wooted out loud. Startling my wife. She'll be fine. Gods love you for casting a Planescape game, and all of you are a great group.
What a great idea for a campaign. All the characters seem very easy going for being magically kidnapped by some mysterious "Innocent" grandma and finding themselves in a strange alien city . I'd probably have had mine freak the hell out and start attacking everyone in sight.
Of course Holly DMs a game about the BIRDcage. And also Stinky the Rat is the villain. And of course the first time Anna plays a rogue she's an actual klepto.
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING EVERYONE I LOVE YOU, see you next Thursday!!
Snickety snooks for everyone!
You're DMing?! That is fantastic... but I need to finish the last 2 episodes of Dice Camera Action before I start watching another series XD
Holly what does your sweater say? I saw 'plant' and now I'm interested :o
also I love Crone and wish she was my grandma, and I can't wait for the next episode :D
You did amazingly well. The poetry in the little scrolls on the feathers was something else. More of that, please!
Holly's DMing is such a joy to watch, and props to Jimmy for being so engaged in his first session. I was a bit bummed when Miitopia stopped, so it's great to have him alongside Holly for another adventure. There's so much personality in this group, can't wait to see where they go!
Crone is just a alternate, happier timeline Strix.
I love the fact that Holly used stanzas from “Dolores”, the 19th century poem that The Lady of Pain was inspired by, for the notes for everybody.
Thank you kindly for that observation!
This is the poem: www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/45283/dolores-notre-dame-des-sept-douleurs
Right??
hello
Hey JImmy! Have fun playing your bard :)
hi
Ayy how's doin?
Dude, you goddamn KILLED it with saturn! Hopefully first of many d&d games because you're a natural ;)
Jimmy Whetzel Love you Jimmy! You rock!!!
Damn, what a strong first episode. I love every character and the DM is doing a great job to keep everyone in the game. Can't wait for next episode.
We support you, Holly! Yay Planescape!
No healer! the only option I think is going to be having some soothing, medicinal triangle tunes from the bard.
Well Bards can learn Cure Wounds as well, so Jimmy's pretty much their only option for healing. Which is quite ironic since he is the one who took most damage.
Reader is too pure for this sinful donut
Studio Joe “sinful donut.” Best term for Sigil ever
Love this!
Steam Mephit: "Oh no it's the fire marshalls!"
Wil: stepping forward, "Yes we are the fire marshalls, and this place looks sub-par."
Steam Mephit: "Damn looks like we will have to kill them like last time."
I laughed my soda up my nose!
GO HOLLY! The non-tomb-of-annihilation-related story is greatly appreciated.
I love how everyone says the Waffle Crew is suboptimal, and this group is like "Hold my beer".
Mr Shambleface Sub-stable team?
Mr Shambleface... Wait arent you in the wrong series/ dimension?
I THIIIIINK we may be the bad guys.
Chad Quandt I think you might be the BEST guys
All great adventures start with moral ambiguity!
Reader is the cinnamon roll of the group for sure. Too pure
Absolutely love this. Also with the light shining in Holly's face sometimes she looks like she has no eyes and it's adorable lol.
2 rogues no healers and no tanks I'm scared
Bards can heal
Cure Wounds is on the Bard spell list.
Morgan Bright ik bards can cast healing spells but traditionaly they are support casters not healers I'm not sure but Jimmy doesn't seem like he's going to be the in the back seat cure wounds. So they dont have a dedicated healer.
Reece with out socks I once played with 3 paladins a druid and a bard. no dedicated healer at any point. so great.
Keaton Lord of the Quizzes 3 people with lay on hands and 2 support casters seem great
Lol its hard seeing anna be such a devilish rouge since ive known her as Evelyn for so long. Theyre polar opposites as far as characters go.
I can't get over that Anna's character portrait looks like a female Diath. Earth 2 Diath.
Wesly Z Earth 11.
I feel like Diath has way more scruples!
Wesly Z hopefully she doesnt have horrible daith luck with throwing knives and deaths
well shit, I didn't see it until now and now I can't un-see it...
I had to go back to the beginning to watch this series. It's awesome watching everyone learn this game.
I saw that it said bird cage and immediately hoped it was Holly and it was!!!!
Of course Holly would be the dm in a series about birds
The gaming world is so great. You can meet so many different type of people with the same interest as you. and we love it. Great video.
‘WE ARE THE US, WE KNOW YOU NOW AND WE WILL FIND YOU.’
Reader: oh dear
Planescape was one of the campaign settings I enjoyed playing ever since originally came out in 2e, watching this brings back memories, loved cranium rats as enemies because they can always increase in challenge rating by adding more giving them more psionic powers
The Brazilian's bread with cheese is called Pão de Queijo wich means litteraly "cheese bread" ;)
Planescape was my very first campaign setting. Once I'm done with some of these campaigns I'm running now, I think I will run a homebrewed game with Sigil as the starting point/hub of the whole campaign.
Holly did a great job, amazing first episode! Even the new players were so into it!
For some reason Holly's webcam looks like a polaroid picture in motion
I love this so much! The characters are all great, especially our involuntary tank-bard, and Holly is an awesome DM. Really looking forward to the next episode
Jimmy seems to be following in the Nate school of being a new player: a bard who tends to prefer causing chaos. Hopefully he figures out he has access to healing spells, because they'll need that.

Wil’s philosophy on stealth: I’ll hide so well, *I* can’t see anything
You're a fantastic DM, Holly !! :D I can't wait for episode 2!!
I have been waiting so long for Holly to run a planescape game!

Jimmy is the definition of extra. I love it lol.
A single bad character ruins D&D games for me, but everyone here is interesting and fun to watch. LET'S GO!
Great job Holly! I love DCA, and this is just great. And FYI, bards can have healing spells, and as he's a newb I don't have a problem tweaking some spells.
Congrats on the first successful stream, and thank you Wizards and D&D for putting it on!
FINALLY I FOUND THIS. AAGHH. I wished DnD would link to their episodes! I was looking for this for WEEKS
I’m already watching this on the twitch vod BUT I just wanted to drop by and give this guy a like and say how amazing it is!! We’re only one episode in and I’m in love with the characters already
Welcome to the scone crew!
a bard taking care of a rat problem in the basement as first quest ... we all know how that goes ...
Thank you for putting together such a warm and friendly game! I'm knew to the world of D&D and it's been a lot of fun learning the ropes via this campaign :D
"I want the ding." You almost got away with it!
I loved this!!! Can't wait to see more of these characters stumble around this setting. So much fun. Also I enjoyed all NPCs, even the enemies, I felt so bad for the little Steam Mephits.
I am so pumped for the next episode!!! This was so good, that intro was spooky and super interesting!!
This is hands down my new favorite series🖤🖤🖤
ITS CHAD! I haven't heard his beautiful voice since Goosebuds, holy heck, sole reason i'm gonna watch this
You don't see everyday a Planescape adventure! I'm really hyped!
So there WAS a problem with the video stuttering during the stream.
Try to fix it for the next episode please!
JojoStar I'm sure they're working on it. First stream is always gonna have issues.
That seems to be becoming more of a problem on DCA too. I wonder if it's related.
I stepped away from watching youtube and twitch for a while, but I'm back and I couldn't think of a better show to start binging than this.
I know it is was the first fight of the game, but I think, you could've gave those mobs 1/2(or 2/3) of cover, because they were surrounded by steam (hard to see and strike), to make this encounter more "intense" ;)
Also, to prevent grapple, you can always choose to use your Dex(Acrobatic) check if your Str is garbage.
One funny thing about Sleep spell, it's an AoE spell that has affect on everyone with in its radius of 20 ft. and Saturn are the first one, who should have been affected by it, because of his low HP :D
2 rogue's a wizard and a bard. the bard can double as a healer so that's fine, the lack of no damage sponge concerns me
34:35 "Traumatic bard experience" you say? huh....
Maan... I just love Ross. Even tho he loves dabbing.
I love this bird person so much??? Like I love her
This is so much fun! I love how Holly started the campaign!
tfw I actually learned to play the triangle
"I had the one before, to get out of the closet"
"Just like in real life"
god that's a mood
Honestly seeing this was up made me more excited than pretty much anything in my entire life
Chad thank you for Troll Hunters. Great Show.
*sees chad* Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time
Nejma & Crown are basically Strix: The Sequel and I love it.
Not to say they both are the same as Strix, but they are similar in quite a few ways and It's great.
I'm a simple person, someone makes a reference of memes and/or vines and I'm already a fan!
I came here for Chad. Happy Birthday!
I'll be running a campaign coming up with 2 rogues, a wizard, and an Artificer (Gunsmith). I'm feeling this party so much.
Promise me that in future episodes the person playing the bard actually looks at the spell list for his class and sees 'cure wounds' at first level.
This is so unique in the roleplay space right now, gave me the inspiration to finally and buy the Planescape PDF from dmsguild! Awesome to see Holly run her favorite setting, thank you so much, this is rad!
This is gonna be a great series.
Doesn't matter that much. I'm sure the mega vault has great wifi.
Haha you really think Chris is just gonna keep me in some vault for the rest of time when I could get out and cause more misery to the Waffle Crew? I think noooot
On further consideration: GODSDAMNIT DRIZZT.
Get back in your vault, Shambleface
Id love to see you DM for chris perkins tho sometime holly, itd be interesting to see
SATURN! Your ding's scared my bird! He was so shocked at how beautiful it was he had to fly for joy!
I sincerely hope this series will last as long as the waffle crew but with less calamity
Great start! Holly, I instantly recognized Woolly from the first few words of your description, and wooted out loud. Startling my wife. She'll be fine. Gods love you for casting a Planescape game, and all of you are a great group.
This is going to be such a great campaign.
Loving the cold, calculated thief Anna xD
Bread IS so versatile! Finally someone sees eye to eye with me!
"The steam is alive" Anna looks over scarred from Dice Camera Action lmao
What a great idea for a campaign. All the characters seem very easy going for being magically kidnapped by some mysterious "Innocent" grandma and finding themselves in a strange alien city . I'd probably have had mine freak the hell out and start attacking everyone in sight.
I swear, Holly is one of my favorite people on the planet. ❤
Is she still?
Disaster Caster would be a fantastic Wizard Subclass! Mike Mearl, I have an idea for your next Happy Fun Hour!
Oh Planescape, I've missed you.
Of course Holly DMs a game about the BIRDcage. And also Stinky the Rat is the villain. And of course the first time Anna plays a rogue she's an actual klepto.
I can't believe Wil forgot to loot the chest.
Dang I'm gonna have to watch this once I catch up on dca! Y'all have fun
Jimmy sicks at triangle please someone teach him techniques lol
Holly, the bird lady (Crow...n) was an excellent character, I thought. Well done.
Sees a guy with a triangle and says: “I see you perform!” 🤔
This is the lady that raised strix, isn’t it?
I love that Nejma favorite food is Pão de Queijo, great food choice
Holy crap, just learned about this. I was had at Planescape. I'm super excited.
Cookies, tea and d&d I'm ready for this.
That is a nice start ! I can't wait to listen to the rest of the adventure in sigil !
Awww that's cool cages. I need to craft some hanging cages to put on my channel.
JIMMY'S RAGE KICK
Planescape? FINALLY! When's the core book for Planescape coming out?
By the way things are looking I would be very surprised if the next 5e adventure wasn't set in planescape.
I'm not interested in a Planescape adventure book: I want a Planescape setting book.
I'm in love with this bard already
This was great. Thanks. Can't wait for more!
The stream was great!!! Cant wait for the next one!!!!
just saw this now very cool need to catch up on the vids time to binge watch :)
AAAAHHH I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SERIES!!!
I'm sooo happy this exists
