The Bad Kids are level 11!

As of this episode, the Bad Kids have leveled up! I didn't note their level 10 updates, but here's a level 11 breakdown.

Adaine: Wizard 11. She gets a level 6 spell. She can also now prepare 15 spells per day.

Fabian: Fighter 6/Bard 5 (was Bard 4). His bardic inspiration goes from a d6 to a d8 and recharges on a short rest. He also gets a level 3 spell + 2 level 3 spell slots.

Fig: Bard 9/Warlock 2 (was Bard 8). Her Song of Rest (extra healing on a short rest) goes from a d6 to a d8. She also gets a level 5 spell + 1 level 5 spell slot + a second level 4 spell slot.

Gorgug: Barbarian 6/Artificer 5 (was Barb 7/Artificer 3). He loses Feral Instinct, which gave him advantage on initiative and protected him against being surprised. He took an ability score improvement, bringing his intelligence from 14 to 16 (+2 to +3), and now has a +3 bonus to a healing or damage roll (acid, fire, necrotic, or poison) of spells he casts. (EDIT: @paralulzy pointed out he also gets access to 2nd level spells and 2 2nd-level spell slots!) He can now prepare 5 spells total.

Kristen: Cleric 11. Her Destroy Undead can now take down creatures up to CR2, and she has level 6 spells. Some of the biggest ones here will be Heroes Feast and Sunbeam, but there are some other very cool spells. She can also now prepare 16 spells per day.

Riz: Rogue 11. This is a big one, and we've already seen a benefit of it--Riz is now Murph-proof, with Reliable Talent. He can treat a roll of 9 or below on the die as a 10 for any ability check he's proficient in. This covers (as far as I know) Arcana, Insight, Investigation, Persuasion, and Stealth.

And of course everyone's HP went up. See you next level!

Geological horror. You find a geode and crack it open and the crystal lining its walls is human blood that can't be genetically matched to anyone. You find a human skeleton but every one of the bones is made from rock, a rock that you know can't be whittled into those shapes. You find layers of clay and loam that sport ancient fossils at the top and the still-rotting corpses of modern animals at the bottom.

what the long middle of revolution requires, what Palestine requires, is an approach to writing whose primary purpose is to gather others up with us, to generate within them an energy which their bodies cannot translate into anything but revolutionary movement. This is what Boal modeled for us in his theatrical experiments, which were dedicated to empowering audiences to act, to participate in a creative struggle to envision and embody alternatives. For Boal, theater was not revolution, but it was a rehearsal for the revolution, meant to gather communities together in that rehearsal. Creative work readies us for material work, by offering a space to try out strategies, think through contradictions, remind us of our own agency.
