Death Save

Returned once more from hiatus, we continue our trek through the chaos-infested Russian landscape while colour, that may or may not be out of space, warping around us. The sad background music is how you know it's Russia. Listen as our preponderance of naming npcs after iTunes reviewers almost overwhelms the normal goofing around. Almost. Also, rock monsters!

We find Turge, Gun tries/fails to stab-heal him, then we wander off in search of some kind of sekrit town. We don't quite get there, but we do fight a  jacked up devil-bear.

  Thanks to all the folks who left reviews for us on iTunes. We start up Taulbee's run, fast-forwarding three years and sending our intrepid protagonists to Russia, in search of Turge. Join Sassy Sara Sasquatch (hobbit druid), Gun Brightmetal (dwarf artificer-gunsmith), and Schneltheck (gnome rogue-arcane trickster) as they board a train and seek out their troubled half-orc friend in the frozen taiga.

After Spike finished his run we took a few minutes to reflect on the game and talk about what's next. This will probably be a regular thing going forward. Background sounds by Tabletop Audio. Theme song is Hemispheres by Silent Partner. Death Save is a part of the Ace Podcast Network.

The beholder, he is fighted! We wrap up Spike's run and get ready for Josh's. Spike tried real hard to cull the npc herd, but we saved them. We saved them all! Well, almost.

Our heroes investigate a giant floating corpse-island in the dark, sunless sea. The gross jokes about being inside of 'flesh tunnels' get about as out of control as you might think.

Popped (pooped?) out of a portal into some kind of sunless sea, our intrepid heroes flail wildly, fight sea creatures, and finally remember they are kind of immune to this sort of thing.

Tavern Talk! If only we'd been in a real tavern... We talk about the show: past, present, and future. Also, we do some general game-y talk and work in some stuff that's been going on outside of the game too. Here's some links to some things we mentioned.

We talk, tavern-ly, of where-to-for-s and art thou-s. Only less fancifully. Having finished up Season One of Death Save, we look at what we thought of the thing, and where it might go from here. Hopefully there's something of interest in there for listeners. Background sounds by Tabletop Audio
