S.3 Detect Thoughts

8/1/2023
Welcome to Dispel Magic! No doubt, this episode will leave you thinkin'. Detect Thoughts may have more applications than just advancing the plot. In fact, it does!

S. 3 Hallow with Sidekicks and Sidequests

7/18/2023
Welcome to Dispel Magic! We are joined by Kurt from the podcast Sidekicks and Sidequests. We continue our exploration into morality and the Devine with the spell Hallow. Not just blessing or cursing a peice of land, Hallow may just re-shape how cities are built. Let in what you want, leave the rest out, and maybe a little something extra if you ask nice enough.

S. 3 Artifact Books

7/5/2023
Welcome to Dispel Magic! More specifically, The Book of Exalted Deeds and The Book of Vile Darkness, these singular items supposedly hold great power. Sounds like it would impact a game pretty heavily, no? Well, maybe. We take a look at life changing security protocols, whether its moral to rat out your neighbors, and literal Good and Evil particles.

S.3 Detect Evil and Good with Kill Every Monster

6/20/2023
Welcome to Dispel Magic! We are joined by the fine folks at Kill Every Monster, Aram Vartian and Dylan Malenfant, to discuss different versions of Detect Evil and Good. Whether its a glorified creature detector or a quick way to read someone's energy for a reiki session, at least the Paladins will be happy.

S.3 Mimic

6/6/2023
Welcome to Dispel Magic! The ubiquitous Mimic. Cornerstone of any dungeon crawl, and potential actual cornerstone in a wall. These sticky, toothy, pseudopoded monsters may have one trick, namely looking like other stuff, but the potential they have is far more nuanced. We talk about colonies, utility, the conservation of mass, and Dane goes deep on adhesives.

S.3 Polymorph

5/23/2023
Welcome to Dispel Magic! Don't go changing for us, but do go changing for Polymorph. This spell is a straight up good time but beware! The lines between man and beast further blur when paired with a number of spells we've already covered. We also answer the age old question, can a warehouse be a backpack?

S.3 Healing Word w. A Couple of Characters Podcast

5/9/2023
Welcome to Dispel Magic! Ranger, heal thy self! Well, you'd have to if there aren't doctors anymore. A world with Healing Word would be one of superstition and faith. With the help of Quinn and Alex from A Couple of Characters, we find out that thieves would make the best surgeons and there can be a such a thing as endless hamburgers. Yuck!

S.3 Nystul’s Magic Aura

4/11/2023
Welcome to Dispel Magic! Big show this week, and for good reason. Nystul's Magic Aura may be meta-gamey and seemingly pointless, but there's a good reason Benjamin might ban it from all his future games. It's that wild! I choose you, Dispel Magic!

Zone of Truth with Derrick from HN2DM

3/28/2023
Welcome to Dispel Magic! In this super sized ep, we have our first guest, Derrick from How Not to DM and Dragon Talk! We cover Zone of Truth, chosen by Derrick for its interesting existential properties. Yeah, we're getting philosophical in this one. Lotta self reflection.

S.3 Water Breathing

3/14/2023
Welcome to Season 3 of Dispel Magic! We're back and we brought the ✨magic✨! This season is going to be full of twists and turns, but for our opener, we start on a firm foundation. Water Breathing can take you places, but mainly to the beach. Can it break a world setting? Yes it can. Partially submerged metropolis', octo-farmers, and a whole heaping helping of kelp is just the start to a deceptively simple spell.

S.2 Deck of Many Things

11/15/2022
Welcome to Dispel Magic! The Deck of Many Things can be a lot of things to a lot of people. A distraction, a disruption, entertainment, or a plain old plot bomb! In whatever the case, things are going to change when these ivory (?!) cards are in play. Folks could make a career on preparing for such an event. Or perhaps those that make these items start an airship casino to lure mortals to ruin their lives. So many things!

S.2 Call Lightning

11/8/2022
Welcome to Dispel Magic! Call Lighting is a battle spell with an array implications. We explore how a setting can change when electricity is as prevalent as it it in D&D. Spell's, monsters, storms, it's everywhere! Of course it would be harnessed in one way or another. Power grids or steam powered city's, we run some numbers to figure it out. And no, we haven't read the Eberron book yet.

S.2 Wizards

11/1/2022
Welcome to Dispel Magic! The natural progression of the podcast continues. How can you talk about the magic of D&D and not discuss the folks who use magic the most? Wizards throw a lot of things out of whack, but its the particularly potent combo of spells that give us a world where a vast majority of people these particular magic users.

S.2 Fabricate

10/25/2022
Welcome to Dispel Magic! Fabricate is what you make of it, to be sure, but what eventually happens when this spell is in the mix is singularly different to all the spell we've done before.
