Stormwood & Associates: An Actual Play RPG Podcast

Continuing their adventure in this 80s Barbarian Toy Cartoon themed universe, our heroes are going off to free the enslaved people of the Kingdom of Nightmare Bat. Will they be able to defeat the Teal Guard? Will the Croquet Bae take down the Southern Sorceress? Is Melby getting carried away?

Probably.

In a universe that seems to be a pastiche of 1980s Barbarian themed children’s cartoons, the team is just honestly trying to eat some breakfast. That’s it. They’re trying to eat breakfast. It’s that simple.

Except it isn’t.

Currently in a world that weirdly resembles an off brand, early eighties Barbarian themed adventure cartoon, the team has spent the night in Castle Nightmare Bat. What will they find in the morning? Well, that’s anybody’s guess. Amy is mostly just hoping that there will be coffee.

The post C2E20. Saturday Morning (Nostalgia Trip Part 4) first appeared on Nerd & Tie Network.

Our heroes, seemingly in an animated world, finally arrive at Castle Nightmare Bat. What lies inside this strange place? Will the princess inside obviously be the legendary warrior who protects the kingdom? Is the food safe to eat? Is there even running water? These are important questions — especially that last one. Since, like, the team hasn’t showered since the motel fire.

The post C2E19. Castle Nightmare Bat (Nostalgia Trip Part 3) first appeared on Nerd & Tie Network.

Apparently stuck in an eighties cartoon for the next two days, Field Operations Team 623 is making the best of it. But, of course, 80s cartoon heroes mean one thing is inevitable — 80s cartoon villains. But are the threats as real as they seem? Are there larger secrets behind this brightly colored world?

The post C2E18. Brobots in Disguise (Nostalgia Trip Part 2) first appeared on Nerd & Tie Network.

The truck has a rockier trans-dimensional voyage, when D, Amy, Obie, and Liz end up emerging in a universe that seems a little more animated. But like, poorly animated? In any case, Field Operations Team 623 has forty-eight hours before they can jump again, and who knows what’s lurking in those bright green bushes.

And hopefully whatever it is has a face.

Well, the hotel is on fire. Amy and D have been getting folks out of the building, but there’s a new twist — the fire was started because someone summoned a fire elemental. With a rock band still to save and a giant flaming monster running amuck, can our heroes make it out alive?

I mean Liz and Obie have been outside the whole time, so THEY’LL probably be fine… but still.

The post C2E16. We Didn’t Start the Fire (A Winter’s Night Part 5) first appeared on Nerd & Tie Network.

After spending an evening relaxing and drinking in a bar (and getting hit on by a creep who thinks doing magic is impressive), Team 623 went up to their hotel room to get a good night’s sleep… only to awaken a couple of hours later to smoke filling their room. So yeah, the hotel’s on fire.

That ain’t great.

The post C2E15. Beds Are Burning (A Winter’s Night Part 4) first appeared on Nerd & Tie Network.

In a reality where 2022 is more like 1986, the team is taking an evening off in a hotel bar. Obie’s been playing video games and hanging out with another ten year old, and everyone else is drinking… a lot. And Amy wants to play the Steak Knife Game.

Snowed in at a Hotel in an off season tourist town while the stone recharges, Field Operations Team 623 is doing the one thing you’d expect them to do – get very drunk. Well, except for Obie. Obie is ten. Obie is playing video games.
