Should DMs Fudge the Dice? | Heroic Roundtable #20

jeudi 22 octobre 2026 • Durée 23:20

One open d4 roll deleted every NPC from our campaign — and we didn't see them again for 20 episodes. So… should DMs fudge the dice?

—THIS EPISODE—

Is a campaign truly collaborative if the DM secretly fudges the dice — or are the players just acting out a pre-written script?

Zach, Brandon, Jon, and our DM Chad get honest about cheating at the table: who has fudged a roll and got caught. Why players actually cheat, and why the dice might be the third author of your campaign. Plus the carriage roll that erased every NPC for 20 episodes, the nat 20 one of us wished he could take back, and the railroaded game that taught us what too much fudging really costs.

Be honest in the comments: have YOU ever fudged a roll DM or player? 👇

01:12 Lie Detector: Who Here Has Cheated on a Roll?

17:02 Fudging Is Only Bad When It's Against the Players

20:00 Prep Problems, Not Solutions

"Into the Fog" | Fatherfog TTRPG Actual Play Halloween One-Shot | Heroic Round TTRPG Podcast

jeudi 15 octobre 2026 • Durée 02:18:28

Forget heroics this week it's time to walk into the Fog. The Heroic Round crew is trading high fantasy for the dark, dreary fairytale horror of Fatherfog for our Halloween Special TTRPG One-shot 🌫️🎃

Three travelers venture into a fog-choked village where children have been vanishing. What they find is a witch with horrific tastes and eldritch energies compelling her. We aren’t adventures, but we have to try and save the little ones, and getting to her cottage through the fog is half the battle.

In Fatherfog, death is never far away, and the Fog takes everyone in the end. Will any of them make it out, or does the witch feast tonight?

If you love TTRPG Actual Play podcasts, Folk Horror, or the brutal beauty of Fatherfog, settle in. This is our darkest episode yet — with just enough levity to make the deaths hurt more.

⚠️ Content warning: child endangerment, character death, dark horror themes.

Why You Should Watch/Listen

For TTRPG Fans: See the Fatherfog system in action! Experience a tense, single-session descent into fairytale horror that captures the "dark bedtime story" vibe.

For Fatherfog Players & Wardens: We're playing a full one-shot. See how the two-character rule, cursed Legacy Artifacts, and the Fog's cruel arithmetic play out across one deadly session all three characters included.

Featuring: Fatherfog Zero Edition from Tuesday Knight Games and the module Into the Fog

Making a character in FATHERFOG, the fairytale horror RPG from Tuesday Knight Games where death is near guaranteed, so you roll TWO characters and your backup inherits your cursed Legacy Artifact when the first one dies.

Whether you are trying out Fatherfog for the first time or looking for a folk horror RPG with real lethality, this is how a Fatherfog character comes together.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why you need TWO characters in Fatherfog

• Character creation process for Fatherfog

"Voices" | S1 E39– A Wizard’s Folly | Heroic Round TTRPG Podcast

Saison 1 · Épisode 39

jeudi 3 septembre 2026 • Durée 42:12

Flavius is still alone.

Lost inside a frozen ruin, he stumbles onto a secret ceremony surrounding something ancient—something buried deep inside the glacier that was never meant to wake.

Then it sees him.

And it speaks.

Meanwhile, Mac and L.S. are still trying to piece together what remains after the destruction of Damon’s Retreat when Flavius’ mysterious shield begins behaving strangely. Chains stretch into the trees. A familiar eye appears where it shouldn’t.

And then, for the first time...

Gentle speaks.

The party may be scattered, but something is connecting them—and whatever is reaching across that distance seems to know exactly who they are.

What are these voices trying to tell them? And what happens when something that has been silent for centuries finally answers?
