Well, well, well. What HAAAAVE we here? Looks like an evil lair. Pretty nice, if you're into that kind of thing. Sure would be a shame if four heroes just KNOCKED OVER THIS VASE. If they TORE THESE CURTAINS. If they KILLED THE OWNER OF IT. Actually, geez that last one is pretty heavy.

OH WELL TIME TO DIE.

Sometimes after you're FED UP with everything and you KILL THE BAD GUY, you then realize "oh wait, we're still in the middle of the bad guy's stronghold. Um. Um. Um?!?!?" SO WHAT DO YOU DO NOW???

YA KNOW. Sometimes, you're just FED UP WITH IT. You try your best to do the "right" thing, to make everybody happy so there's no losers, and eventually it just becomes TOO MUCH and you're like, "that's it, I've had enough!!!" SO YOU TAKE OUT YOUR OATH BOW AND SHOOT THE OBSTACLE IN THE FACE.

It's a confrontation for the ages! She told us to kill you but then he said he wanted her dead and now she is allied with her and now you're talking to me! That's basically what our heroes are going through right now! Will they be able to talk their way out of the confusion, or get fed up and starting throwing hands? Tune in to find out!

EVERYBODY WANTS SOMETHING. No one just wants to KINDLY HELP our heroes kill Xancrown aka the ender of all existence. WHY IS EVERYONE JUST SO SELFISH? Tune in to find out how the party deals with more bargaining and politics!

Dwarves dwarves dwarves!!! We've met a lot of factions, so now it's time to say hello to the Dwarves. Will they be as friendly as others? Or mean? Do they have some more weird politicking for us? Tune in to find out!

Well well well, what have we here? A challenge from a worthy foe? Surely one member of our party - the loudest, most annoying member - won't turn down an opportunity to punch a competitively punch a foe. Plus - more talking to a new faction leader!

And so we have our second meeting with one of the Demonplague Dungeon's faction leaders - the leader of the goblin faction. Will things go as swimmingly as they went with the human faction? A simple request in exchange for the key? You can probably venture a guess, but tune in to find out!

A meeting with one of the leaders of the Demonplague Dungeon is imminent, and our heroes must decide whether to begin the complicated politics of the dungeon or just kill everyone and take their stuff. A CLASSIC DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS CONUNDRUM? But which direction will our players go? Tune in to find out!

Finally, the moment every podcast listener (of ANY podcast) is waiting for - LISTENING TO PEOPLE PLAY CHESS! It'll be difficult, but try to still yourself until we get to that moment in this episode; I promise it will be WELL WORTH the wait!

THEY HAVE THE KEYS. The keys - they are had! But... now what? The keys must be used on the puzzle door! Can our heroes solve the puzzle without messing it up? Is there something on the other side BESIDES Xancrown?! Tune in to find out!

JUST KIDDING LAST EPISODE WAS OUTSIDE THE DEMONPLAGUE DUNGEON. But now we're inside, baby, and things are gonna get CRAZY. STRAP IN FOR IT. CAPPPPPPSSS!!!!

Welll, sometimes you have to just focus on meeting and doing business and figuring out where to go next. Sometimes you just need to hear the story and get the intel. And sometimes, while you're in the middle of doing that... things get CRAZY.

Sometimes after you defeat the HOUSE OF CHAOS, you need to go back to town to take care of business. Like, literally, there is town business that our heroes need to take care of. BUT! It is not boring - this is interesting town business. Tune in to hear it!

And here is the exciting conclusion to the House of Chaos arc of our story. Is there someone secretly behind the Chaos? Who is controlling the Chaos? Can Chaos even BE CONTROLLED? Tune in to find out!

The House of Chaos - a place of mystery and fright! Of horror and pain! Of uncertainy and self-questioning! And it is easily defeated by the charm spell. BEHOLD THE POWER OF THE CHAAAAAAAAAAARM.

The House of Chaos - not so nice! Who woulda figured??? Maybe our heroes can make it a bit nicer... or, ya know, burn it to the ground if it doesn't want to be nice!

Super thanks to special guest Sam! Follow her on Twitter @samwise_gamegee!!

They finally made it! They finally made it to the HOUSE OF CHAOS (lololol). But what exactly is IN this house? Chaos, yes, of course, but what exactly IS chaos? Tune in to find out and have this mystery revealed!

Super thanks to special guest Sam! Follow her on Twitter @samwise_gamegee!!

The Battle with an Undead Vine monstrosity continues! It can suck your life force straigh outta ya! STRAIGHT OUT! Soooo this is a tough battle, cause our heroes need their life forces!

Well hello! The Jade Gauntlet that our heroes need to defeat the Demonplague is in a spooky catacomb beneath a Garden-of-Eden-esque... Garden. Surely only Good things would be beneath another Good thing, yes? Yes???

Roc ran into a trap! Roc ran into a trap! Save her save her save her!!! Also... watch out for those ghosts! With that visage... that may cause some... effects. Yeah. If you know, you know. If you don't, you will.

And so our party sets off to find one of the items necessary to end the Demonplague and Xancrown forever! Of course, if they fail then the entire plane will be plunged into eternal darkness with Xancrown's awakening and the forces of Good will ultimately be destroyed. But that's not gonna happen!!! Right? RIGHT???

Hooray!

Torstan is up for election to town council! AND THE RESULTS ARE IN!!! Will he wield one quarter of ultimate power in Tomar's Crossing? Or will the party's hard work be all for nought?!

Oh God! Oh Dear God! Former friend and town hero Baobab has turned into a Vellok, the undead monsters that spread the Demonplague! She must be defeated, but also our heroes cannot make eye contact with her or they will contract the Demonplague! And they have to fight her in her tiny little very cute home! Oh geez!

The elections are nearly upon us! And party member and Good Guy Torstan Alehand is running for town council! Will his friends help him win fairly and honorably or will they use... other means to ensure his victory? With this party, you never know!

*gasp* A new and important person from one character's past has unexpectantly appeared! And they have important info to share! Also: lots of Dusk! Dusk - the best horse ever??? The answer, of course, is yes!

The party!!! They are splitting!!! Our group of four is now two groups of two, and they are heading in opposite directions. What will befall them as the commit a mortal role-playing game sin? Tune in to find out!

And here it is! The confrontation between between our heroes and their long-time rival and village elder Bajalen. Will the townspeople side with the party? Or will they join with the intimidating and cunning villain? Tune in to find out!

Hooray! An essential ingredient in the ritual to save the world has been obtained by our heroes! And now they will return back to their base of operations, Tomar's Crossing, to celebrate their victory. Surely everything is going fine there! Right? Right?!?

Demon!! There's a demon trying to capture the pseudodragon, which our heroes need to defeat Xancrown (also a demon!). And while they have an ally in the form of a possessed Elaria Walrus, will they be able to face down this otherworldly monster?

THERE'S A LESSON HERE, CHILDREN. A lesson to be learned. SOME. TIMES. YOU ///SHOULD/// JUST TALK IT OUT INSTEAD OF MURDERING SOMEONE (in RPGs!). Because then you're like "hey! just get the key off her body" and then you look at the body and THERE AIN'T NO KEY. WELL WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO NOW, IDIOTS?

Special Guest Dan Dillon is back as a ghost and doing what ghosts love to do - impart wisdom to the living! Also maybe some creepy stuff too??? More on that later.

But now our heroes know that there may be a way to defeat the evil demon Xancrown that doesn't involve dropping a glacier on all civilization and killing everyone! Whoooo! Tune in to hear what it is! Also - some grade-A conniving from the less good-aligned party members!

Ambushed! Our heroes have been AMBUSHED! They now must fight their way out of a pit of acid foam and defeat Elaria Walrus, the leader of the group that has attacked them. Elaria - the same woman they saved from an evil sacrifice not one month (ish) ago!

ALSO! SUPER SPECIAL GUEST DAN DILLON! As a GHOST!

The party has met the evil necromancer annnnnd maybe he's not so bad? He's... BAD, but perhaps it's possible to convert him to a less evil point-of-view. Hear the details of the deal of the century, now!

Well, well, well. A necromancer has come a'calling. Or, rather, our heroes have come a'calling for him. And it sounds like he may be receptive to their calls? You may be surprised how this showdown goes down!
