Summary Dimension 20: Fantasy High Junior Year picked up with the Bad Kids defeating the Night Yorb before they are faced with their most difficult academic year yet. Struggling to balance challenging course loads, emotional changes in their personal lives, and antagonistic peers, the Bad Kids stumble upon another mystery that threatens not only them but the school and Spyre at large.
Ally Beardsley Explains Why They Wanted To Explore "The Cost Of Chaos" This Season Fantasy High was the first season of Dimension 20 and the Intrepid Heroes have grown as players over the last six years. This became extremely evident for Beardsley when returning to Kristen Applebees. They shared how they had to fight the temptation to change their approach to playing Kristen in order to stay true not only to the character, but the high school setting.
I think when I first started, she was kind of isolated, lonely, that was the found family story of the first season. It's been fun to give her confidence in creating the gods that she wants, but also still being kind of chaotic. I think I said this in the trailer, but it was the cost of chaos we wanted to explore.
" Might Be Riz's Nemesis, But No, This Is My Nemesis" The Rat Grinders were introduced as a mirror image of the Bad Kids, but Beardsley had an immediate visceral reaction to the introduction of Kipperlilly Copperkettle which prompted an iconic line from Kristen Applebees. Beardsley explained why Kipperlilly hit such a nerve and became her nemesis instead of Buddy Dawn who was likely intended to be Kristen's main Rat Grinder antagonist.
Ally Beardsley: That was a really fun thing that I just found in bringing my own personal point of view to the table because I think when I first lost my religion or felt very I didn't fit into the church anymore, being queer, being trans, I had a lot of, "Oh, get that away from me," a lot of animosity.
I can sing Brennan's praises literally all day because I'm just like, I love that story of specifically anger and being a teenager. That's such a part of your emotional landscape. It was really fun. Yeah, it's hard because at the end we're kind of like, "Do we hate these people? Do we save them? Do we feel bad for them?" Maybe it's a mix of all three.
Ally Beardsley: I don't really know if they get back together. I think that's going to be fun to think about. I think when you're really young and you go through a breakup, it can feel kind of like world ending. I was just talking to a friend about this also because I think there's kind of a belonging or inspiration. There's something kind of in your heart that you don't think you can feel without love or a relationship, and that's not just young.
Yeah, her casting Divine Intervention, there's just something that happens at the table. You have to make so many choices, rapid fire. I think had we gotten a second to all take a break, we would've had K2 roll her Divine Intervention first because she doesn't know what the f-ck she's doing and it's really personal to Kristen. If that didn't work, Kristen would do it.
Ally Beardsley: Incredible. It's incredible. I think Emily also just as a player, has a great way of sniffing out things, but it was really interesting because Brennan never forces our hand and in character as Porter was like, "No, don't become a Paladin."
