Welcome to Kirkbride, where good behaviour is expected and the past is best left forgotten.
In the first episode of Comleroy Tavern’s dark fantasy Dungeons & Dragons adventure, Arbert, Joey, Grim and Griz gather at the Kirkbride Institute for the Trials of the Tenets.
Their facilitator, Lucent, introduces them to Callan’s carefully preserved history—but awkward introductions, questionable refreshments and one troublesome bread roll soon threaten the orderly proceedings. Ahead lies an audience with the council, where the party will discover what their city expects of them.
An Australian actual-play podcast featuring unsettling mysteries, chaotic characters and dark humour.

Please reflect before proceeding.
Join us in the Comleroy Tavern for our cinematic Dungeons & Dragons podcast set in a dystopian therapeutic utopia, where mystery unfolds slowly, truths are…
Perched atop a marble escarpment, the Kirkbride Institute promises clarity, purpose, and emotional harmony. Through guided reflection, therapeutic programmes, and the Ten Tenets, its citizens are taught that every struggle has meaning… and every misalignment can be corrected.
Memories can be rewritten. Identity can be refined. And anyone, with enough dedication, can become an Exemplar.
But beneath the calm language of wellness lies something far more controlled.
This is a story of a society that doesn’t punish — it corrects.
A system that doesn’t command — it convinces.
And a city where the most dangerous thing you can lose… is yourself.
