Talltale Tavern

The frantic chaos reaches a fervent conclusion as we finally crown our fateful champion! 5.5 fighters remain! Argos, Silas, The Marquis, Brad, Lee, and Gobson have battled giant gorgons, churning cubes, shifting spiders, a wretched warrior and an historic Hydra, but the arena is not slowing down and their health is waning. Who among them will have what it takes to survive and be crowed the Legend...

16 combatants heard the coin and answered the curious call of the mad genie Auris. 9 survived the deranged djinn's grim and gruesome gauntlet. They are beaten, battered, and more than a little freaked out, but the time has come to determine which of these warriors will withstand the wanton warfare and will their way to a wish. It's the finale of the 3rd Bi-Sesquincentennial War of the Wishes: Lege...

The ultimate battle for a wish continues in the final group qualifying heat of the 3rd Bi-Sesquincentennial War of the Wishes! Last up to take on The Guantlet we've got Silas the Tiefling Bard, Hobson the unusually tall goblin. Beetle the Yuan-ti Monk, and Sir Hoppington the extra fluffy Harengon Paladin. Will this group of well meaning would be wishers work together to survive the cruel punishmen...

The chaos in the arena continues with a third batch of competitors! This time Brad the Halfling Monk, the incredibly similar looking Lee the Halfling Bard, The not at all confusingly named Bard the Halfling Bard, and Rend the Hill Dwarf Cleric will see if they have what it takes to survive THE GUANTLET! Spoilers: They probably won't! Follow the podcast's socials! Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠@talltale_tavern...

The chaos in the arena continues with the 2nd heat of the 3rd Bi-Sesquincentennial War of the Wishes: Legends of the Lamp! Up next in The Gauntlet we've got Nelnada the Shadari-kai Monk, Ashina the Elf Druid, Joremy the Gnome Fighter, and The Marquis the Human Artificer/Fighter. Do they have what it takes to survive the onslaught of insidious obstacles? There's only one way to find out. Follow the...

Prepare for a D&D competition unlike any other (probably I mean I don't know there's a lot of content out in the world)! A powerful genie has summoned 16 champions from across the realms to compete in the ultimate gladiator arena for the chance to win whatever their heart desires in the form of a single wish. The rules are simple, last fighter alive wins! Before these wish fueled warriors can...

Special guest DM Mitch "Bones" Graser helps us get to the bottom of all the fishy business going on at Initiatech as we discuss our favorite moments and the behind the scenes of Acquisitions Aquatica!

What do you do when your family is in danger? Whatever you have to do to save them. And at Initiatech we are a family so you better believe Peri, Kooper, Spike, and Don are going to do everything in their power to help rescue the entire company from the clutches of the evil forces ruining their corporate aquarium retreat! That is, assuming they can survive the cybernetically enhanced octopi menaci...

Holy Ship! The AI system has gone completely awry, and the group has only just begun to understand the gravity of the situation. Listen to the exciting end to this spelljammer adventure as Bob (the janitor), Jim (the mechanic), L-10 (the chef), and Zeniya (the daughter of magitech engineer researcher Ada Hopper and deceased mother Valentina Savitz - adventuring spelljammer pilot) maybe figure out...

All aboard for the Astral Sea! This month we're setting sail on The Inquirer, a positively massive spelljammer ship on a perfectly mundane research mission. Life on The Inquirer is idyllic in many ways, thanks largely to the magitech integrated throughout the mystical space cruiser. However, as the 100 year anniversary of their expedition approaches, dangerous glitches start popping up through...

We tried on dresses. We had a party. We went to hell and vanquished our enemies. It was a good time.

Let's go to a masquerade ball! Candy, Diandre, Gaeyll, and Radia have made it through the dark woods of the Bureau of Mortal Intake, and into the 9 Hells. A good place to be dressed to the nines, wouldn't you say? Join us for part two where over the River Styx and through the dark woods (not in that order) to Axchisolot's Castle they go, seeking their revenge on Volik the Incubus and h...

Lovers Scorned... or Scorched? Terrible pun. No way should I start the description with that line. Scott, delete everything up until this point. Have you ever fallen in love with someone, given them a token of love, and had them immediately shapeshift into an incubus and teleport away? Well these four women have, and all by the same guy. It's time for revenge. Join us as we hear the story of how f...

We rejoin Khaos, Bick, Thwick, and their new enigmatic ally Frank as they continue to travel across the ages in search of a cause to the chronological calamity afflicting reality. Much to Thwick's chagrin, there is no manual for dealing with fractured reality so they'll have nothing but their gut to guide them as they gallivant through the garbled generations and attempt to bring order to...

Returning back to the future of the Talltale Tavern, set in the steampunk setting of "Cloudy with a Chance of Fireballs", the Special Tactics Unit has been given a mission. Thwick the Thri-Kreen, Bick the Half-Elf, Hooks the Hobgolblin, and Khaos the Tabaxi set out on a fairly standard mission, but soon find themselves turned around, forward, backward, and just plain frozen. What does al...

We talk about the things that happened in the adventure that you listened to! Also Scott has Covid so he sounds really tired!

Holey Moley! So far the group has survived a herd of goats, a chimera, and the astral plane! What more awaits at the bottom of this magic hole? Is the Talltale Tavern itself connected to this strange anomaly? Will Cwistopher get his honey? The chaos continues in the second half of this all wild magic adventure, The Sorcerer’s Appendix!

A mysterious hole has opened up in Daggerford, creating magical effects and drawing crowds from near and far to witness this strange anomaly. Four brave adventurers, all affected by wild magic, set off to explore the depths below to investigate the source of this arcane occurrence, and to answer a big question… Why have none of the people who have gone into the hole before them, returned home? The...

The gleaming, corporate-dominated future of New Lisbon is in for a rousing roiling from our party of hackers, saboteurs, cybernetically-enhanced street enforcers and technomancers. Will they free New Lisbon from the grips of corporate control? Will they birth a new sentient AI into the world? Or will the inevitable weight of capital drive them into the ferrocrete of the far future? Find out this w...
