Thank you for the update - marking the calendar! Really enjoying so far. Nentir Vale is my fav D&D setting - so good to see it get some love (thanks Mr. Mearls!). peace In...
Dear D&D Beyond mods, Hopefully this is a good place to ask: I was not sure where would be best to do so. Is it possible please to add the source of the music tracks and/ or names and/ or composer? I was particularly struck by the track playing at 29 minutes; another then began playing at about the 30 minute mark. At the time I asked live in stream, but the mods at that stage did not know. Thankyou very much for any assistance you can provide: I am most grateful! Yours Faithfully, @Suedyin
Love Heroes of the Vale! Couldn't wait to get off work this morning and watch the new episode. Mike Mearls describes the characters abilities and combat so well! And who cant love Penelope Half Pint?! lol
Before this, I had only seen Todd Kenreck as an interviewer for the Critical Role cast. But I'm actually really enjoying his playstyle as Avren. Seems like a cool dude. Can't wait to see more of TJ in the coming episodes, too.
I am really excited about where this one is going! The Deck of Many Things being used in this way sounds awesome! I'm hoping to watch them go to Gardmore Abbey at some point. :D
Penelope is adorable and so much fun! Well done Hope!!! Also, ALL HAIL KING AVREN!!! This is so delightful!!! I couldn't stop laughing and clapping it was just so wonderful. I noticed what the DM was doing and it was very interesting.
Just realised what these creatures are after watching the Happy Fun Hour where Mike created them, and I got a great thrill from that. He roleplays them so well.
TJ is absent this week, so Keen popped over to the Feywild for a moment (or was popped over there). He'll be back once he's sure there won't be any Shadowfell incursions or whatnot ruining the party's day.
Great episode, I missed Keen as he was already my Favorite but Avren was great in this so he's my Favorite now! It's a very creative adventure and campaign so far excellent DM style! Now I have a nice Good Aligned heroic campaign to watch along with the Chaotic Neutral anti-heros of Critical role and a few other streams I am perusing. And I can Keep up as this one is new! All the players are good at playing the game and using logic, morals and tactics while staying in character! Also is there a place to send fanart or are you guys not looking for any fanart? But I would expect Mike Mearls to be a happy, enthusiastic and very skilled DM and am not disappointed! Also great improvement already to audio quality and less talking over each other!
They're all ghostly creatures, probably meant to look like the former citizens of the town (although obviously the ruse, if there even is one, doesn't stand up to scrutiny). They actually seem geased and glamoured into carrying out their jobs, given how poorly they react to unplanned events. I wonder if there's any personality under the job at all.
Hope is so cute!!! The gate keeper is a real weirdo, Bar 🍻 Keep and the people in the bar weird. As if they were brain 🧠 washed! I would get Penelope " Half Pint ", Briv Steelmarrow , Okira , Flapper out of this insane asylum town. Okay the old man with the bowl 🍜 is scary and impressive, with his power. Briv Steelmarrow don't when too shut up!! He got them into a fight, with man with unknown power.
Heroes of the Vale is returning January 23rd!
Yey! I've been waiting for so long! Can't wait to see what happens!
Thank you! This is such a good group and I've been waiting for you guys to come back.
Still waiting!

TJ had a last-minute schedule change and had to miss this week's episode, but he will be back for next week!

What is/was player character starting levels?
Hooray!
Great episode thanks for the entertainment
Where is part 3?
Mearls does an awesome job with the NPCs. My hat's off to you, sir!
I love how Mike so often gives his players at least two options for skill checks or tactical choices.
I was thinking exactly that!
Also a fan of Passive Perception being a "minimum roll" in certain circumstances.
Love Heroes of the Vale! Couldn't wait to get off work this morning and watch the new episode. Mike Mearls describes the characters abilities and combat so well! And who cant love Penelope Half Pint?! lol
"It sounds like he's maybe strangling (no offense Fla'apper) like a goose or something inside." I died!
Finally, a D&D stream I can start watching! Love the cast so far and excited to see what Mike Mearls has cooked up.
This series is awesome! Missed TJ this week. So glad you put this team together.
I was expecting something amazing from Mike, but this campaign idea and the scene setting are just superb!
Outstanding concept and I love that he's revived a 4e setting.
Before this, I had only seen Todd Kenreck as an interviewer for the Critical Role cast. But I'm actually really enjoying his playstyle as Avren. Seems like a cool dude. Can't wait to see more of TJ in the coming episodes, too.
hope Lauren remembers she has 2 attacks left on that cast of Scorching Ray for next week...
Looks like this will be an entertaining series that I can see myself getting into! Thanks for providing some solid entertainment!
I am really excited about where this one is going! The Deck of Many Things being used in this way sounds awesome! I'm hoping to watch them go to Gardmore Abbey at some point. :D
Two episodes in and I love this campaign already!
Not a huge fan of evil campaigns, but it could get better.
wow, this is absolutely fantastic! great job Mike Mearls!
Todd has the Mordekainen complex.
Southron_d13 what does that mean
Todd has shaved his head and now he looks like the Mordenkainen. ("Expedition to the Ruins of Greyhawk", "Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes").
I was looking for a sweet dnd crew to watch. Absolutely love Mike and his awesome dm skills
Enjoyed this. Great story. Fun interaction between the characters.
Okay, I loved Adam's reaction to everyone *except him* getting hit by Bless.
I agree, it was perfect! 😂
Loving this campaign!!
Mike: "Do you have Darkvision, as a Dragonborn, right?"
ok, it's official enough for me: Dragonborn have Darkvision!
Penelope is adorable and so much fun! Well done Hope!!! Also, ALL HAIL KING AVREN!!! This is so delightful!!! I couldn't stop laughing and clapping it was just so wonderful. I noticed what the DM was doing and it was very interesting.
Penelope would make a great NPC.
Just realised what these creatures are after watching the Happy Fun Hour where Mike created them, and I got a great thrill from that. He roleplays them so well.
Mike is just an amazing narrator.
Oh yes, its back up. I am loving this. btw where is Keen?
P.s Orkira is my favorite character rn. well done Lauren :)
TJ is absent this week, so Keen popped over to the Feywild for a moment (or was popped over there). He'll be back once he's sure there won't be any Shadowfell incursions or whatnot ruining the party's day.
I can't get over the fact that Orkira sounds exactly like Gonzo.
King for a Day, Fool for a Lifetime
I was here to make a Faith No More joke smh.
@@groovy4451 Dude, that just makes you cool! You just got 5,000 XP!
When are you resuming this campaign, out of curiosity?
Heroes of the Vale is returning January 23rd!
40:40 Is dark souls music playing?
Great episode, I missed Keen as he was already my Favorite but Avren was great in this so he's my Favorite now! It's a very creative adventure and campaign so far excellent DM style!

AAHHH WHEN IS PART 3 COMING OUT? CANT WAIT
What are these transparent creatures? Are they homebrew, or are they something from the Monster Manual?
What A/V setup technologies are you using for the stream?
I would love any news about when episode 3 is coming!
What Application are you using for your games?
Wow. These people are in powerful denial of the ruin that has befallen this town.
They're all ghostly creatures, probably meant to look like the former citizens of the town (although obviously the ruse, if there even is one, doesn't stand up to scrutiny). They actually seem geased and glamoured into carrying out their jobs, given how poorly they react to unplanned events. I wonder if there's any personality under the job at all.
Is it just me or does Orkira sound a HELL of a lot like the Swamp Knight from that Skyrim mod.
I'd love to a see a game with Mike Mearls, Jeremy Crawford, Ed Greenwood, R. A. Salvatore, Matthew Mercer, with Mike Mearls or Matthew Mercer DM'ing.
Add Chris Perkins in there too plz!
10/10 for king avren XD
Where's Keen?!
Episode 3: The Other Shoe Drops
13:30
