Questions answered this episode:
1. Have you used any rituals or exorcism style encounters and have any tips or know of any good resources for ideas on how to design them?
2. How can a DM effectively deal with monsters with multiple abilities/skills?
3. What are some general tips for running a combat encounter to make the best and most interesting use of a monster's abilities?
4. What is the best indicator that I should be running more episodic adventures rather than a long linked campaign? You have talked before about the risks between doing one or the other, but are there any signs I should be looking for?
5. Have you ever done a campaign just so you could use an idea you had?

Noteworthy links:
Percy Jackson & the Olympians, a genuinely great Young Adult fantasy series you should read
The Last Exorcism - I mentioned this movie in the podcast and I was hesitant to post this trailer because I really don't think it does a good job of showing what the movie is like. (It makes it seem a lot more generic than it is.) In any case, I recommend you watch this movie!
The Executioner's Chariot, a cool boss from Dark Souls 2
Matthew Colville, a GREAT Youtuber who's got a great series of videos on running (and playing) D&D
