E24: HOARD OF THE DRAGON QUEEN (SESSION 13: HELMED HORRORS AND MUSICAL DOORS)
31/08/2015After offing a Red Wizard at Castle Naerytar and acquiring the secret code word from him to actuate a subterranean portal, the PCs - namely, Lathandis (Wood Elf Cleric), Seren (Half-Elf Eldritch Knight), Erzo (Drow Rogue), along with NPC muffin Jamna Gleamsilver (Gnome Rogue) - are teleported, then emerge on the other side of... who knows where? Unlike the swampy, muggy atmospheric conditions at the Mere of Dead Men, the climate at this new and apparently remote locale is cooler, fresher, gusty, alpine- like. Upon materialization, the first thing they see, within arrow shot, is what appears to be a lodge of some kind, with snow-capped mountains forming the backdrop. Who or what else will they encounter? What, then, will the PCs do? Will they yodel-ay-hee-hoo? Listen in to this podcast episode and find out.

E23: HOARD OF THE DRAGON QUEEN (SESSION 12: THAT WHICH DWELLS BELOW THE CASTLE)
31/07/2015Having finagled and rampaged their way past a band of Bullywugs at the entrance of Castle Naerytar, the PCs - namely, Lathandis (Wood Elf Cleric), Seren (Half-Elf Eldritch Knight) and Erzo (Drow Rogue) - make their way through the main level, managing to gain access below, with Lizardman Snapjaw and Gnome Jamna in tow... then to probe the dark depths. What will they encounter? Even after editing, the duration of this podcast is longer than normal.

E21: HOARD OF THE DRAGON QUEEN (SESSION 10: WHAT'S GOING ON?)
10/06/2015The PCs seem to have gotten themselves into a pickle while stopping off at the Carnath Roadhouse. Almost by serendipity, Seren (Half-Elf Eldritch Knight), Lathandis (Wood Elf Cleric) and Erzo (Drow Rogue) have foiled an underground clandestine shipment of loot undertaken by some Lizardmen during the overnight hours. However, the Half-Orc Bog Luck and other NPCs have become aware that something unusual is afoot. Deadly confrontation occurs between PCs and NPCs. And where were those Lizardmen taking the crates?

E20: HOARD OF THE DRAGON QUEEN (SESSION 9: ROLLICKING RUCKUS AT THE ROADHOUSE)
02/05/2015After the travelling for about one week northward on the High Road, the caravan stops off at the Carnath Roadhouse. The PCs - Seren (Half-Elf Eldritch Knight), Lathandis (Wood Elf Cleric), Erzo (Drow Rogue) - have been retained as security guards for the trip. Reportedly, this roadhouse is a locale where road building supplies are unloaded for ongoing work currently being conducted by the High Road Charter Company. But observations by the PCs and NPC encounters hint that other activities are occurring clandestinely... likely related to the Cult of the Dragon Queen.

E19: HOARD OF THE DRAGON QUEEN (SESSION 8: TAKE THE HIGH ROAD)
14/04/2015Party member Erzo (Drow Rogue) finds himself alone after the mysterious disappearance of his colleague. However, he is joined by two new PCs: Seren (Half-Elf Eldritch Knight) and Lathandis (Wood Elf Cleric), welcome additions to the campaign. The boys, along NPC Jamna Gleamsilver (Gnome Rogue), get hired by the High Road Charter Company to accompany a caravan headed out of Waterdeep, on the way to Neverwinter... purportedly. The editing is rather tight in this episode so, resultantly, the dialogue is quick and steady.

27/03/2015The caravan continues northward. Next stop: Daggerford. But before then, Erzo (Drow Rogue) is going to spend time intimidating passengers and use the nighttime hours to stealthily open crates in his insatiable search for loot. Mulinex (Elf Ranger/Druid) spends his time charming a young lady in a tavern at a Way Station, but is in for a surprise as to her identity. Two new NPCs are introduced into the campaign: a mischievous gnome quite adept at circumlocution, and a mysterious human wearing a wool hat over his bald head... hmmm, what does that mean?

07/03/2015The PCs depart Beregost, continuing on their northward trek along The Coast Way, eventually reaching Baldur's Gate. Once there, they check out a magic shop, then, via an intermediary, head over to a tavern to meet with a Paladin, who provides them with an important contact which allows the PCs to travel as guards with a caravan, soon to depart the city. In tow with this caravan are suspected members of the Cult of the Dragon, including a bunch of weirdo theatre performers pretending to be Adventurers. Intrigue, awkward NPC encounters and combat ensue.

10/02/2015After cleaning house in the cave system at the Raiders Camp, Erzo (Drow Rogue) and Mulinex (Elf Druid/Ranger) bring back their captured Spellcaster to Greenest for interrogation. Still, all clues on the nefarious activities regarding the Cult of the Dragon point northwards. So they head toward the coast, then northwards along The Coast Way. Assuredly, what they will encounter in their travels will be either bizarre or malevolent... and the ominous shadow of Tiamat looms.

02/01/2015Erzo (Drow Rogue) and Mulinex (Elf Druid/Ranger) are in transit to the Raiders camp, but first must deal with the rear guard. They are on a mission to retrieve a monk held captive at the camp and to determine where all the loot is ultimately headed. But how do they covertly penetrate a camp teeming with kobolds and cultists? The terrain is rugged and observers on the camp's watch towers constantly scan the horizon. Reconnaissance and deception, it seems, will be required. One thing is for sure, so long as there is hefty monetary compensation for the task, Erzo will stop at nothing to get paid.

01/11/2014Campaign Conclusion. Now that they have discovered the nefarious reasons for the Orichalcum heist, Sabus (Druas Marine) and Tarkus Zull (Atlantean Alchemist) must stop their arch-nemesis from annihilating Atlantis with a global superflood.

What will the PCs encounter at the end of the line? Will they be able to prevent the Second Age from ending?
