Episode 75- Holey Ship That's a ...

2020/06/17

There's a lot of things that happen in this episode. Does our team make it to the astral plane? Yes. Is there a ridiculous number of Gith between them and their objective of saving their plane of existence? Very much yes. Do our adventurers once again casually saunter towards an encounter that should certainly be their doom? Yes, 100% yes. But what's really important here is the strain these trying times have placed on two valued members of this group. For starters, Namee gets really dark. Like,

With a bit of creative spell work, and a hefty pinch of luck, our adventurers have somehow survived their encounter with a significant baddie. Justifiably, the party is taking some time to bask in the glory and pat themselves on the back. Their celebration is quickly squashed however by the mindflayer Lililith, their apparent patron, who informs them that much worse is coming their way. Lililith begins to connect a series of dots for our adventurers. Seemingly unrelated events they've experienced

It's the Trial of the Body, which it turns out is a very serious fight! Judging by all the skeletons littering this cave, the Trial has not gone well for a lot of previous adventurers! So just what is it that the mindflayer Lililith expects them to battle? Well we don't want to say too much to avoid spoiling things. Unless of course you listened to the previous episode. Then you know. But if you haven't and you're still reading this you at least deserve a strong hint! Let's just say the game isn't

The final arc of season 1 begins! The party is reunited with their always shiny friend Fergus and his mindflayer boss, who we now know is named Lillilith. That's just hard to say. It makes sense that Fergus calls him Lilly! The Lilster and Fergus have whisked away our adventurers to a massive cave for The Trial of the Body, which sounds like it is going to involve way too much cardio. And it is cold in this cave! Exercising in the cold is one of their least favorite things! Will Rath be forced to

With their adventure in the thieves guild behind them our cast reflects on their characters' journeys thus far as they prepare to begin the final arc of season 1! And yes, that's over 70 episodes in a season. Sure, that does sound like a lot. Don't try to constrain us to some construct of what a season means! We thrive on chaos. So join our players as they reflect on the events of the adventure and how that has shaped the growth of their characters. Or jump in mid-adventure if that's your thing

With Kort's disguise blown, it's time to take the fight to Braddock. Namee, who is in elk form, with Blag riding on his back, is charging in head first to introduce himself to the baddie. Can you say he's at ramming speed if he's an elk? When it comes to being a druid, you could say that Namee is at the head of his class. He's really using his head for this one. Someone should give Braddock a heads up about what's heading his way. But here we are making all these bad head puns while Kort is about

Our notes for this episode description say "Emperor Tor and his entourage arrive at the palace to begin their next heist." But wait, isn't Tor, well, you know? And this guy is way too tall to be Tor. This person also has red skin and horns. Is that Rath? Oh there's a flying miniature T-Rex with him. That's definitely Rath. Okay, so "Emperor Tor" and the team's plan here is to use disguises to gain an audience with the King. Considering the very, uhm, interesting attire Blag has chosen, it's a

2020/02/26

So Namee, with the best of intentions, accidentally led our adventurers into a confrontation with some Thieves Guild guards. But really, it's not his fault. He wanted to honor a fallen friend by doing a little cleaning. How could he have known an unused temple was actually a hidden entrance for a band of scoundrels? If anything, this is on the thieves. Thanks to Jade's warning, at least the party knows the mess they've stumbled into. And yes, they may have done some snake attacks, and shot a guy in

With the Staff of Pa-La-Di in hand, the Dungeon Master has plans to "wrap"-up this pyramid mission with a quick trip back to town so the adventurers can see a cleric and get their curses removed. And for some, to get their eyeballs back. But Namee doesn't care about the whims of a Dungeon Master. And Namee wants to do something random before calling it a day. And do you know what happens when you take a mundane situation like a visit to town and you add in Namee? Chaos. Chaos is what

After overcoming the terror that was the Scarab King, the party pushes further towards the dusty heart of the pyramid. It's just about time to wrap up this expedition. But something really stinks around here. And we don't mean our adventurers! Rather than waste away debating the relative size of bugs, they delve deeper into the decrepit digs, where they learn that someone has a rotten sense of humor. Or is it just really dry? Hopefully the team can preserve their wits as they deal with the

Having survived the last round of traps mostly unscathed, but definitely worse for the wear, our adventurers continue to push into the heart of the pyramid. As they enter the first chamber, it quickly becomes clear that they've entered the puzzle phase of their exploration. They should have no problems with that of course. Historically, puzzles have been no issue for them! What's that? What about the Spa Tile you ask? We'll thank you for not bringing up the Spa Tile. Yes, it's capitalized now. And

She informs them there is still much thieving to be done in order assist her with a special mission that is of particular interest to both Kort and Rath. Their next step? Steal a very sought-after treasure from a pyramid. Good thing that old fear about pyramids having traps and curses is just a myth, right? So, it turns out the pyramid is full of traps and curses.

Having bungled their way into a secure complex, our adventurers continue to follow Jade's directions as she guides them through what has clearly become a heist. What are her goals there? And how does she know the building layout and guard locations so perfectly? Very good questions that she is masterfully dodging. But the party pushes on, because really, what else do they have to do? Meanwhile Rath is not having a good time. Blag and Namee are pulling off Looney Tunes routines, and Kort is chatting

Having dealt with Collin's attempts to take over the Onyx Shields, our adventurers find themselves being whisked away by the mysterious thief Jade. The last time the party chased after her they ended up stranded on an island of dinosaurs, shifters and snake people. And yet for some reason, here they are, following her again with no idea of where they are, why they are there, or what Jade is after. So once again the party is rushing head first into a situation they know nothing about! Knowing this

Having uncovered a classic case of voter fraud, our adventurers have come to an important conclusion: Always have vetted, third party oversight over all ballots. Also, Collin is the worst. And apparently he's hit peak d-bag and is just going to go all-in on being a bad guy. With the cast of a spell, he divides the party and kicks off cross-dimensional, magical combat. With magic missiles flying, magic fire firing, and just a little bit of down to earth gardening, the party is set to take Collin's

It's a rough time for our adventurers who are still reeling from the loss of one of their own. Thankfully, there is a beacon of hope in the darkness. And it's a gnome dressed in a penguin's skin. It sounds less beacon of hope-like when you put it that way. Regardless, Namee has warmed the hearts of his new party members. Notice how we're saying his party members. Because it's his party now. You'll see. With the funeral at an end, the team is called back to the Red Halls where the horror that is
