The skirmish rages on as Larkey's forces draw nearer to the castle - and the real fight flickers on the horizon.

Wonder what the catch is? Watch out for those little stones, adventurer. - Starring: DM Dick Dynamite the Dungeon Master Richard Kimber-Bell Cleo deCap -- Taylor van Biljon Dr Ze/Doctor Zafrey Elektra - Daniel Matthews Herodotus Arthurion Mendleroth III - Even Mehl Amundsen Episode art by Max Behrens Ambiance sound support by Jamie Nord and Michaël Ghelfi Synth Music Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio Episode Edit / Sound design by Daniel Matthews - Send inquiries and fanart to backwaterbastards@gmail.com Support the show and gain access to extra content by joining our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Backwaterbastards If you love what you hear, share us with a friend!

Every Bastard has made it to the Zarg Castle. They've had a few moments to reflect on their fragile mortality, and now they must prepare for the inevitable. Will it be a siege? Another betrayal?

S1E42: Sack 2 Sack

Season 1 · Episode 42

Friday, March 19, 2021 • Duration 01:36:05

The Bastards gather in the name of their fallen comrade, precariously balanced on the edge of survival, and the edge of their friendship with Clan Zarg. They've fought many battles together now- destroyed many fine places, crushed many frothy brews, but the revelation of Herodotus' deal fell hard. The stark truth of the Imperial Armada and a possible Kraw Alliance after all that has befallen. With the bright memory of the poison on their lips - It is Dr. Ze who must now unite them all, on a dangerous trek to the castle, to the Honey Boy, and to Herry himself - holding the gunnery there. - Starring: DM Dick Dynamite the Dungeon Master Richard Kimber-Bell Cleo deCap -- Taylor van Biljon Dr Ze/Doctor Zafrey Elektra - Daniel Matthews Herodotus Arthurion Mendleroth III - Even Mehl Amundsen Episode art by Richard Kimber-Bell Ambiance sound support by Jamie Nord and Michaël Ghelfi Synth Music Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio Episode Edit / Sound design by Daniel Matthews - Send inquiries and fanart to backwaterbastards@gmail.com Support the show and gain access to extra content by joining our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Backwaterbastards If you love what you hear, share us with a friend!

S1E41: BUGGA. helpeven.org

Season 1 · Episode 41

Thursday, March 11, 2021 • Duration 02:30:15

Time is ticking, as the poison blooms. Dr. Ze has abandoned his Honey Boy shell, and is racing across the castle on the neck of the chemist. Herry is holding off the entire brute force of the castle army- and Clan Zarg is in disarray as the call for Trevor goes out. It's a mad race to salvage life and limb, and as long as Herodotus can hold 'em off, there's hope for Dr. Ze to get the antidote in time. Or is there? It appears the poison and the ambush weren't the only bones the universe had to cast. - Starring: DM Dick Dynamite the Dungeon Master Richard Kimber-Bell Cleo deCap -- Taylor van Biljon Dr Ze/Doctor Zafrey Elektra - Daniel Matthews Herodotus Arthurion Mendleroth III - Even Mehl Amundsen Episode art by Richard Kimber-Bell Ambiance sound support by Jamie Nord and Michaël Ghelfi Synth Music Karl Casey @ White Bat Audio Episode Edit / Sound design by Daniel Matthews - Send inquiries and fanart to backwaterbastards@gmail.com Support the show and gain access to extra content by joining our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Backwaterbastards If you love what you hear, share us with a friend!
