Half Blood Heroics & Hijinks is a City of Mist actual play podcast set in the PJO world. Our story centers around three demigods (2 Greek and 1 Roman), as they handle their very own prophecy and the challenges of growing up in a world of warring gods, terrifying monsters, and inconvenient prophecies.

“Water. Earth. Fire. Air. I will become master of the four elements!” The trio continue their adventures in Chicago and take some time to hit up the tourist-y spots and eat some Chicago-style pizza. During one of their activities, Arella spots something strange and gets rewarded with some exciting news. Conner and Lyra actually seem to be getting along, mostly ganging up on the little one.
