  • Episode 96- Shifters Shifting Shiftily

    Our adventurers are having a bit of a rough start against the frog people. On a mission to find a cure to the mysterious illness the frog people are said to have, only one of the party has even made it past the cave entrance where the frog folk live! And that really just made things worse. The others have been fighting for their lives, and it's not going their way. Having come up with a do it yourself remedy for the unexpected acid within his body, Nock is ready to put that remedy to use to aid Shep. He may be a little too excited to use it on Shep if we're being honest. But really, after being shot by Shep's arrows more than once we can't blame Nock.

    Will the party make it past the horde of frog people and get to the cave? If they do, can they even go through the magical barrier blocking the entrance? They've certainly got enough theories on how to do that! What physical characteristic of fantasy world leaders has thoroughly permeated into the minds of everyone around the table? And why does Lauren mention having her hands inside a dog's abdomen? Well she's a Surgical Veterinary Nurse. That's just a real life fact.

  • Episode 95- Nocked Up

    Our adventurers are on a quest for the mysterious disease ravaging Namee's home. Upon arriving at a cave said to hold an antidote, they have discovered it is heavily inhabited by the frog people who have attacked the party in the past. They were told to expect this of course, but there's a lot of them! With Namee off  to cause chaos, the rest are left to fend for their lives as they engage in combat with the frog folk. The result of this is a slew of stabbings.


    There are gobs of gorings. A profusion of piercings! A great deal of gashes. Stacks of slashings! A cornucopia of cuts. Piles of punctures!A real wealth of wounds. And a plethora of perforations. Really just a general shitshow of being stabbed. And Blag is only responsible for about 3 of them! Hopefully the party can persevere because this mission is off to a prickly start.

  • Episode 94- Toadally Awesome

    With the magical tower and it's various floors conquered, our party has safely retrieved Namee's father. Okay, that's not totally true, there was some burning. And Nock got turned into a chicken. But it was fine! And now our party is set on finding the source of the mysterious illness that afflicts the gnomes. With a hot tip from a fast talker they are on their way to the location of the traveling magical purveyor Doctor Traintorker with hopes he'll be able to assist them further.


    After a bit of a hike they locate Doctor Traintorker's massive wagon and... Chosen protect us! That's a gigantic horse! Forget finding the source of the disease. It's time to befriend this radiant creature! Thankfully Violexx can make apples on demand. Surely this big beauty will respond well to some good old crapples!


    Anyway, it turns out the Doctor has also contracted the disease. But he knows where they need to go if they hope to cure everyone. So once again our adventurers are off under the direction of someone they really don't know, without asking nearly enough questions. Weren't we just talking about this in the last episode's description? Seriously, how are these people entrusted with such grave matters? It seems when times are tough you just have to work with the tools you have. But we're not calling the party tools. Okay, maybe we are.

  • Episode 93- Picock

    Our adventurers have made their way out of the dwarven ruins after a very close call with a creature that probably could have killed them with a look. Thankfully the party can turn on the charm when needed! It seems they were rather hasty in believing the djinn and taking this dangerous journey in the first place. But really, they are basing this on the word of another potential enemy that they immediately believed! It's starting to look like they'll just accept as truth whatever they were told by the last person they spoke with. This is how people end up with unwanted timeshares.


    With essentially nothing to show for their efforts except that they added a halfling to the party and they got some magic items, they head back to Namee's hometown where they are met by Namee's mother and word of his father's health. Namee dashes off to check on his dad while the rest of the gang brings mom along with them. It's a Wizzlefizzle family reunion! Just as soon as they work their way to the top of the tower where dear old dad is. And it's a magical tower. Those always go so well for this group!

     

    How many bad puns will we get out of this situation? Who gives themselves a nickname? Who's going to give Violexx an earful? And what has Nock's feathers all ruffled? Things are about to get very clucked up!

  • Episode 92- Cave Check
    Having defeated a menacing duo of skeletal guards, our adventurers find themselves before a giant set of ominous doors. Doors that clearly block the way that they want to go to achieve their goal. But going in that direction would be much too direct for this team! Especially when there's so much yet to explore! And after finding Nock's amazing new sword in one of the very first areas they entered, you'd better believe the party's going to explore all of it. Because if there's one thing that will always override whatever other objective an adventuring party may have, it's the lust for magic items.
     
    What mysteries lie buried in the ruins? What delightful objects will they discover? Have you ever considered what the day to day life of a dwarven customs agent would be like?  Also is anyone else starting to think rangers maybe have to roll too much for their attacks?  Someone get Shep a dice app because undead surprises await!

  • Episode 91- Nocked Around

    Having stumbled into the dwarven ruins in the desert, our team has begun their search for the magical lamp controlling the djinn that is laying waste to the land. During the exploration, they come across an enchanted sword that has quite a way with words. Bonding with Nock, the sword is about to show our party just what it can do as they come across some shambling skeletons. Here's a hint, it's awesome!


    Finally, the full team has a chance to see how well they meld into a cohesive fighting unit. Here's another hint: it could use some improvement! It turns out their newest member needs just a bit more practice with area attacks. We're sure he'll pick up on it quickly and everything will be fine down the road! What aerial maneuvers can Namee pull out when he actually has to fight? How does Blag shred skeletons? And just how badass are grave clerics? Very badass.

  • Episode 90- Sing Song Sword

    Our team came upon a town that was a wreck. Pushing through the place Nock had some very bad skill checks. Surviving his traps they met a halfing scout named Shep and his wolf that looked hardy. Having similar goals to stop the magical desert they decided to join the party. So off they all went to find the dwarven ruins. Because the djinn's lamp there is the solution they are pursuing.


    But it turns out finding this place is a difficult goal, until Violexx stumbles into a great big hole. There's streets and homes, full of dust and bone. It does seem she's stumbled into the right zone. But these skeletons've got hands that are grabby. While Nock and Shep stand up high being gabby. Turns out we're going to need a knowledge infusion to deal with major anatomy confusion. 


    Will the team fight? Will they go up, down, left or right? Will they find a treasure that's sublime? Will Mke commit a heinous word crime? What situation will Nock find that is trying? Because it turns out Kyle is much better at rhyming!

  • Episode 89- Shepard's Hook
    Our adventurers have found themselves in an unnatural desert, searching for a way to stop it's rapid spread across the land. Upon meeting its unusual source, a djinn that looks to be wasting away, he tells them that he is causing this destruction as the result of a wish. To put a stop to the destruction, he directs them to a ruin deep in the desert where he says the wish was made. On their way there they come across the ruins of a town that appears to have been besieged. Desperate for a break from the monotony of trudging through the desolation, the party decides to investigate the town. 
     
    How much will Nock regret being impatient with the party and pushing onward through the town? And will he regret it even more if he keeps doing it? What sort of grievous injury will Blag suffer by his own hand? Will a simple object he discovers be able to make everything better for him? And just how confused will Violexx get about, well, everything? One thing's for sure, this town is going to be a pain in Nock's ass!

  • Episode 88- Condescending a Horse

    With the tournament complete and the winner crowned it's finally time for our party to venture out of Butt Mountain. However, since one of our adventurers won, they must first deal with the Giant King's pesky decree that the champion cannot leave. We have a feeling Namee can ferret out a way to get around that!

     

    What will the next step be in the party's quest to cure the sickness wracking Namee's home? How awkward will it be when they realize Palino is still there? How hard will the party try to communicate with a horse? And what epic weapon name will our adventurers unearth in their travels? It's time to hit the road and hope it doesn't hit them back!
