Ice Knife - What the Spell!? A D&D and Game Design Podcast

Kim has historically had a way to commit a terrible crime that, in her mind, is a perfect and untraceable way of getting away with it.

Grease - What the Spell!? A D&D and Game Design Podcast

After getting through all the big spells, Joe suggests taking a look at one of the most silly spells you can possibly use, Grease, which Kim correctly guesses makes things very, very greasy.
