US Trailer | International Trailer

Trailer time! We got our first trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home this week, and it looks good! I'm continually baffled that Disney, of all people, have managed to mostly-consistently turn out good comic book movies, but... there you are.

The Holy Order of the Bumblebee - Doorways (DeviantArt)

Well, it didn't raise any objections last time... further adventures of the Party of Four Clerics, this time trying to get past a guard. Their signifiers are what they'd have to roll a check against; a CON check for out-waiting someone amuses me quite a bit.

Obviously no Cleric would ever rely on STR to get in. And none of the Order are terribly dextrous.
