Join Arson, Butylene, Fraya, and Irene for a most curious case of a canine in the night. Back in the Glamadrome, our heroes puzzle their way through a historical predicament. A miserable malefactor has pup-napped a prized pooch. A Pomeranian? Perhaps! Can the gang crack the case by using every skill on their (diegetic) character sheet? Or, will they resort to magic or violence and blow the whole shebang!? Only my hairdresser knows for sure, and they aren’t talking. So you’ll have to listen up, chuckles!

38: The Beautiful Place - Chapter Two

Highway to the Danger Room.

In twelve days an old god will destroy Fire Island, and everyone on it, unless someone delivers the lost treasure of the great queens, long sealed away in a tomb beneath an obsidian ziggurat.

Arson Nicki, a half-elf / half-spider Warlock, Butylene O'Kipple, an infernal alchemist, and Fraya Love a water elemental worshiper of Cher, have traveled across Fire Island to the forbidden city of Glamalala seeking training and allies.

Their last encounter in the Glamazon City saw them imprisoned for trespassing, found guilty, and sentenced to death. But, after they defeated the Kraken priest and proposed a plan of mutual defense, the Glamazons were willing to give them a second chance.

So that's the context. But really, this whole episode is about introducing new player Irene Dubois.
