In this episode of the It’s A Mimic! Podcast, this panel of Dungeon Masters sits down and cracks open the discussion on variant rules. There are dozens of options in the published material for Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition, and some of you might be unnecessarily making homebrew rules without realizing there are already other options out there for you. This show has already dug into the experience-based variants in E047, so it’s time to look at special character creation rules, unique healing and damage rules, and some interesting entries about unique weapons.

In this final Hags episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast, the panel of Dungeon Masters sits down to look at the worst Hags that Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition has to offer. With a hard look into the stat blocks of the nastiest coven published so far, the episode is going to see what can be gleaned from the pages of Wild Beyond the Witchlight when it comes to playing Hags in your own campaigns.

In this special April Fools Day special, the It's A Mimic! podcast gets back around the table to have some crazy arcane shenanigans with the one and only ne'er-do-well (as in they never do well) thieves guild: The Black Hand. That's okay, though, as the guild has sent three of its top agents, Human Bard Inspara Dice (played by Kyle), Copper Dragonborn Fighter Kalope "Kall" (played by Megan), and Lizardfolk Ranger Nuxlokkusk Ugurqozk Grarzixxausk (dammit... blame his player, DAVE) - to retrieve the "Eye of the Beholder" a powerful elemental gem. And where is it, you might ask? At the helm of the Sovereign's Song, a lightning rail servicing the route from the City of Towers to the monstrous country Droaam. Dungeon Masters Dan, Adam, and Terry have put together a fun little challenge on The Sovereign's Song, but none of our illustrious DM's know what the former has prepped. It's bound to be a chaotic romp in an It's A Mimic! actual play of Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition!

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast returns to the pages of Xanathar’s Guide to Everything to cover the last subclass listed there, before looking at the pages of Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything to see what new Monastic Traditions there are for Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition. It’s not all punch punch kick kick, though, as the panel of Dungeon Masters has discovered. So grab your brass knuckles and put on your gi, as this episode launches into three more subclasses, as well as the Optional Class Features offered in Tasha’s.

This episode of this It’s A Mimic podcast is going to bring us back to the Forgotton Realms for the third Lore episode in a row and the rest of the mighty world outside of Sword Coast. Although the focus for Dungeons and Dragons 5e seems to be away from it, this panel of Dungeon Masters seek to better understand Faerun, Kara-Tur and the rest of the adventurous possibilities Abeir-Toril (or Toril for short) provides as well as a look into the biggest cheese on the whole planet…

Last time the It’s A Mimic! podcast discussed Dungeon Mastering, the panel of Dungeon Masters covered power creep and why you should manage the mechanics of Dungeons & Dragons more closely.

This episode of the It’s A Mimic! podcast is going to zoom in on the hags that you can’t find in the Dungeons and Dragons Monster Manual: the Annis Hag, the Bheur Hag, and the Dusk Hag.
