Rolling with Difficulty Season 1 Episode 1: "A Matter of the Heart"

Welcome to the Planescape dear viewers, and to the very first episode of Rolling with Difficulty!

On their first (televised) adventure, the crew of the Per Aspera takes on cliches by...starting in a tavern? Ah well, it's much more exciting after that, with questionable collectors recruiting out crew to set sail into the Astral Sea in search of the heart of a dead god. Will our "heroes" prevail and earn their end-of-year bonus? Or will the denizens of the vast and mysterious Planescape make this voyage their last?

Goofs:
- Sophia forgot she had the spell sniper feat and missed a chance to ignore the penalty for partial cover, whoops!
- Austin's dog Travis wanted a taste of the limelight, and would not stop letting his voice be heard while recording...maybe we'll roll him a character next time.
- Sophia called the NPC "Otto" by the character that somewhat inspired him, "Hondo". Don't tell George Lucas.

What is Rolling with Difficulty?

Throughout the Planescape there are countless wars between good and evil, lawful and chaotic. Forces of great power shift the very nature of reality. These are not their stories...

Join the crew of the Per Aspera as they make a living in the expanse of the scape. No job is too odd, no region too remote for this motley crew of adventurers. From the fiery City of Brass to the winding woods of the Feywild, they'll go wherever the day takes them aboard their trusty Spelljammer.

Every episode of this D&D 5e actual play podcast follows a different entry in the adventures of the Per Aspera, and are intended to be watched in any order your heart desires. Follow the tale from the beginning, or jump in along the way, however you listen it's sure to be a wild ride!
