The gang comes upon the fortress of Stone’s Rest, a circle of stone athwart a river. However, it is not the hard-scrabbled, uncivilized bandit camp that was assumed.

Sorry for the delayed release this week, folks! Technical difficulties are the worst!  The group, having just made it to Swiftcross in search of their friends, goes straight to an inn called the Charitable Demon. Here, the group finds some information and Rook goes on a mission by himself. That’s right … the most dangerous thing within Dungeons & Dragons … splitting the party, while drunk! Tho...

After the disappearance of Auriel, the group looks for answers. They find a path forward in the helpful demeanor of Viji, the Loxodon monk and the local barkeep (and member of the Silent Prestige) Rina. The group charters a boat to head south along the river, but first they need to flirt with a shopkeep in order to procure some traveling supplies. And as it turns out, Rook has no scruples about tr...

When Neldor awakes from a fraught dream, the city of Gotweil is in flames. Rousing the others, they discover that Auriel is missing.

The adventurers had made their way to Gotweil, where they found more information about their lost mentor. They also, however, ran into the Unity, a powerful group whose motivations aren’t exactly clear yet. The gang is pulled in several different directions as they have to decide where their loyalties lie. When are they gonna kick some butt? Soon. Sooooooon!  We have a dedicated Helpful Goat serve...

In this episode we all learn just a bit more about this world. Sunny has a “dream” thing. And Rook mutters to himself. The immortal Humphrey Bogart once said, “If you’re going to give me something expository to say, you better have two camels f-ing in the background.” Well, in an episode that exposes the secrets behind these mystical items the party has been given, we don’t have two camels … but w...

The gang has a frank talk with the Mayor of Redmeadow, who gives them a contact to see in Gotweil. This conversation, however, also reveals a promising truth: that the group’s patron, Latherial, is alive. Oh yeah, and IT’S BEEN FORTY-FIVE FREAKING YEARS!!! But damn, do they age well! Or not at all...  We're excited to announce that we have a dedicated Helpful Goat server on Discord now! Chat with...

The group rushes into the town of Redmeadow as smoke rises from burning buildings. They quickly discover skeletons -- the moving armor-wearing kind. And in the center of the commotion is a skeleton that's bigger, purpler, and more terrifying than the rest! So of course the players give him the nickname "Big Purple Bone Daddy." Which, in their defense, he totally does look like a "Big Purple Bone D...

In this one, Auriel tries hard to contain her excitement about being out in the world, Sunny attempts to make sense of things and keep everyone from blowing their cover, and Neldor and Rook have a stern conversation after a particularly difficult contention Rook has with his own identity. Oh, and smoke on the horizon. Perfectly normal, not-bad-at-all smoke.  We're excited to announce that we have...

The adventurers make their way from the stronghold in search of answers. What they find are some people in trouble--as well as some terrifying ants! As the battle ensues, the party seems to be disregarding their better judgment about not using magic in the outside world. Rook especially...  We're excited to announce that we have a dedicated Helpful Goat server on Discord now! Chat with us--and wit...
