****NOTE: There were some technical issues during the filming so some of the audio might be missing
The first time covering a very different creature type! The shining child has a very awkward dichotomy that is very fun to explore!

Back to business as usual this week as James takes his first true deep dive into a Pathfinder 2e creature. We start off our new existence in 2e with one of the highest level creatures James could find, the Spirit Turtle! It doesn’t hurt that he’s a big fan of regular turtles!
We hope you enjoy our triumphant return to bi-weekly releases!

We are over the moon to present to you Encounter This! Episode 100: New Encounters!
Following our 2023 Update we got to work on some big changes and major strides forward for Encounter This! And are back to present to you our first official foray into Pathfinder 2e as the baseline system for Encounter This! (not the first 2e creature though…go check out episode 50 Blood Hags)!
Here we gathered some of our favorite podcasters and collaborators and asked them to present their favorite creatures of the past 99 episodes! And they did not disappoint. We cover creatures as far back as episode 4 and as recent as episode 99 itself!
Put your hands together for them and thank you for your support in reaching this milestone and carrying forward into New Encounters!

This week Freeman & James get into possibly the most under valued creature yet (in terms of CR) – shadows!
These creatures have the unique 1-2 punch of hitting hard and not taking very much damage and could be trouble in a fight. Plus, they have an ability to create more shadows! Fun and dangerous!
This particular episode also gives James a platform to proclaim his admiration for a particular pulp hero!

This week we get into the first episode of the Fan Requested Golem Suite!
The fan who requested this suite, Tekale, did so by winning a raffle from a charity stream James did in junction with Casa de Colores Fundraiser.
That being said, what a choice! Golems are one of James’ favourite creatures and we’re so so excited to get into them this week, starting with Part 1 – D&D Lore from all editions with a focus on 5e.

The Banderhobb is a creature rife with potential. Flavour-country in shadow and flesh salad, read for homebrew vinaigrette to be toss amongst the shredded dark pieces.
Ok this analogy is weird already.
A large portion of the credit for this episode goes to Paizo’s Dungeon Magazine Issue #195, and Steve Townshend, writer of the article The Ecology of the Banderhobb.
