Battle Buddies
Adventure is Better with a Buddy

BONUS: Loot the Tower!

We've said it before, if you show your players a tower, they are going to want to know what's inside. And in this short bonus episode we will see what goodies Tilly, Tavin and Toolie find for themselves.

This was recorded with the same session we released last week, but did not fit in the flow of the narrative. So we decided to put it here instead of throw off the feel of last week's show.

We will be back next week with another giant episode filled with emotional moments for our heroes!

#44 – Everyone has a Story

When you have been adventuring as long as our heroes, word spreads of your many mighty deeds. But much like a game of telephone, the details can get lost in the mix.

#45 – Not my Circus, Not my Monkeys

DMing requires a lot of juggling. It can feel like herding monkeys, or running a three ring circus.

What I am saying is, things get a little out of hand in this episode! The Triple Threat continues their journey deep into the caves beneath the world they know. As they explore their alien surroundings they quickly learn of the dangers hidden underground.

But even in the darkest places, I'm willing to bet our crew can find a friend.

After some much needed, monkey-free rest, the Triple Threat spends some time with their new friend Claire.

Our players follow her and her strange metal golem, George, to the gravesite of an ancient creature. Claire is excited to talk science with Toolie, and the two eagerly exchange notes. But Tilly feels uneasy in these tunnels. Is the friendly Firbolg simply paranoid? Will they find safety in Claire's headquarters? Or are there dangers in these caves yet undiscovered? Join us and find out!
