Dimension 20's Misfits And Magic Returns For A Second Chaotic-Looking Season Later This Month

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of tabletop role-playing under my belt, I can confidently say that Misfits and Magic Season 2 is shaping up to be an absolute gem! The combination of Aabria Iyengar’s creative storytelling, the return of Brennan Lee Mulligan, Erika Ishii, Danielle Radford, and Lou Wilson, and the move to the much more roleplay-driven Kids on Brooms system has me buzzing with excitement.


Once more, Dimension 20 brings us an exciting new chapter with our beloved band of magical misfits! The much-anticipated Season 2 of Misfits and Magic has been officially confirmed, promising a thrilling journey within the dome. Unlike its four-episode predecessor, this season will span over eleven episodes

In Season 2 of Misfits and Magic, Aabria Iyengar comes back to the dome as the Game Master, while Brennan Lee Mulligan, Erika Ishii, Danielle Radford, and Lou Wilson step once again into their characters Evan Kelmp, K, Sam Black, and Whitney Jammer

Three years after the happenings of Season 1, where four ordinary high-schoolers adjusted to life at a magic school and challenged the illogical aspects of mystical education, Season 2 follows Evan, K, Sam, and Jammer as they navigate young adulthood. Each character is grappling with their future decisions, all while dealing with a looming magical crisis that endangers their existence and relationships. The trailer gave off a strong Fantasy High Junior Year feel

In that trailer, Iyengar consistently explores the boundaries of what a Game Master can achieve in visual storytelling. At one instance, a dynamic and interactive face appears on a tablet called Tabby, enabling a Non-Player Character to communicate with the other players. It seems like Zac Oyama, another regular in Dimension 20, provides the voice for Tabby

Previously, Iyengar orchestrated a narrative within the dome that featured Burrow’s End (a cast including Mulligan and Ishii). The last time she did this was when she battled against the combat-focused structure of D&D 5e to create an exceptional story. I’m eagerly anticipating her upcoming work with Misfits and Magic, as it adopts the more character-driven tabletop system known as Kids on Brooms

In this upcoming Dimension 20 adventure, we will see Iyengar, Mulligan, Ishii, and Wilson together for the first time since they started their self-produced podcast, Worlds Beyond Number. Since then, their camaraderie and gameplay skills have grown tremendously, making me excited to witness their interactions on camera. The addition of Danielle Radford, who brought constant humor as Anastasia Tension in Mentopolis, promises an even funnier experience

The second season of Misfits and Magic starts on September 25, and fresh episodes will be released each Wednesday
