Welcome to our next epic adventure! Ghosts of Saltmarsh is our new campaign, but will our players be the heroes this town needs?

#163 – Ghosts of Saltmarsh Session 0

Today’s episode is session 0 of our newest campaign, so not into the story quite yet. You’ll get to know our players and listen in as they shape their new characters in the world of Saltmarsh, make connections with each other and roll for their stats.

You’ll also get to hear Luke provide a history of Saltmarsh, details on the areas in and around the town, along with highlighting some of the citizens that will be interacting with our players pretty regularly. Towards the end you’ll hear the hook to set up session 1 and get a lesson in ‘fridging’. Lindsay points out the lack of female representation (again); will it make a difference? Only time will tell…

Welcome to a new, somewhat mini-adventure! Vines of Wrath (VoW for short) is a multi-night campaign/side quest with a smaller group of all new adventurers, but are they up to the challenge?

Characters of this campaign include: XT-17 the Warforged Fighter played by Luke, Gooflin the Human Monk played by Eric, Yenni the Hexblood Druid played by Jordan, with Stephen helming the game.

#162 – VoW: The Coven’s Lair

*Warning: The audio this week is going to sound a bit worse than previous episodes. The final session was recorded on Roll20 but the recording failed so we had to use a backup recording, we tried to level it as best we could but there are some quieter and louder spots. Also, this recording is filled with lots of dings/bloops/pings from Stephen’s computer and the voice changer used in previous episodes doesn’t come through as well. Sorry for the quality but we’ll be back to normal with our Ghosts of Saltmarsh campaign!

The finale is here and it begins with initiative being rolled! Villagers are being mind controlled and a few “hideous hags” step into our plane of existence (Side note: if the word ‘hag’ annoys you like it does me, buckle up friends!). The fight rages on but our group’s combat tactics are questionable. Gooflin gets knocked out but he won’t go down that easily; Yenni gets an interesting offer after one of the witches meets their demise…

The battle comes to an end and the campaign is resolved, is it a happy ending though? Make sure to listen all the way to the end or else you’ll miss the fate of XT’s young friend Johnny!

#161 – VoW: Noodly Appendage

With the heart of the large tree in tow, the trio head back East but it’s not an easy trip. XT-17 confesses his programming is becoming faulty to the others but he’s still able to check out Stadby ahead of the group arriving to town. Gooflin finally see’s his original body restored to it’s usual self! However, the heart is needed for the power to complete the transfer so the situation feels like a double cross.

XT-17 makes a bold move when a discussion with Angela takes an odd turn. While Gooflin’s transfer is complete, XT’s vision fades to black and he wakes up in Gooflin’s old ant-body! There’s a lot of confusion with all the body swapping and tensions building to a final battle.

#160 – VoW: The Manifestation of Nature’s Wrath

*The Audio this week may sound a bit different than usual, this campaign was finished out on Roll20 so we weren’t using our normal equipment.

A massive tree can be seen in the distance, Gooflin discovers he is linked to the tree in his temporary body– but he was instructed to kill this tree to get his real body back?! The tree tries to make a deal but he wants the town of Stadby eliminated…which includes Johnny!

The group is given an ultimatum: side with the tree to get Gooflin a new-but-still-not-real body after decimating Stadby or kill the tree unknowing what power this could give to the witches of Stadby. Perhaps there’s a third option?

#159 – VoW: Are You The Entity?

*The Audio this week may sound a bit different than usual, this campaign was finished out on Roll20 so we weren’t using our normal equipment.

Moving West, our trio move from the jungle into a more swampy environment. They encounter some non-hostile plant entities and something strange happens to XT-17. When the dryad disappears and is later rediscovered it is not quite as friendly as before. Also, a massive swamp gollum appears!

Our group make a decision to continue to travel West and and run into a bug-like man who attacks Yenni. A gaping maw creature also emerges and Gooflin is attacked as well. This sounds bleak but it’s not the end, Gooflin attacks back with a vengeance!

#158 – VoW: Ant-i-body

Finally, Stadby! Gooflin’ is really hurting thanks to that unfortunate curse he inhaled. They are directed to an older woman in town named Angela who can help Gooflin with the help of the sister who protect the town; with a lock of hair a deal is made.

Gooflin falls unconscious and Angela brings out a replica of his body that he will inhabit while his real body heals, it’s weird but go with it. A commotion outside the town tavern reveals a familiar foe, combat begins again that ultimately leads our group westward in an effort to save the town.

#157 – VoW: Dark Mist & Will-o’-Wisp

Another huge boom can be heard and felt throughout the jungle, Yenni’s charm glows and the group only feel a slight breeze while everything else takes damage. Upon deciding to move a bit faster to get to Stadby, Gooflin meets and becomes friends with a T-rex!

Overnight while “sleeping”, XT sees a dark cloud with glowing red eyes, there’s no rest for the weary in this jungle. Gooflin inhales a curse that no one can really do anything about and is also abandoned by his new T-rex friend, it’s a rough day.

#156 – VoW: Curiosity=Recklessness

XT-17 calculates 32 hours to go before our trio reaches Stadby. Whilst travelling again, Yenni is convinced by more pixies to follow them…it’s a bad move.

More jungle combat begins! Jordan learns about wild shapes! XT-17 kicks some wood-but!

#155 – VoW: Dad, What Was That?

A very large boom shakes the jungle, though it was far away from the group, they still feel the shockwave the the necrotic damage it dealt. It’s a rough blow for the non-humanoids travelling with the trio.

A long walk brings the group to a building that XT saw whilst survey the damage. When they approach a plant monster is revealed and combat begins!

#154 – VoW: My Crown Tingles

After their first full day of travel, our trio settle down for their first night in the jungle. A body hanging by its feet and wrapped in vines is discovered, once unwrapped they find a large thorn in the back of the dead body.

Meanwhile, Gooflin figures out the power of his new ring and quickly thereafter finds he can’t take it off. After surviving the night and heading out again, a symbol is discovered but no one seems to recognize it.
