Welcome to the Barely Adequate Podcast, an actual play d20 fantasy adventure set in the sprawling, Realms of Atrothia! Follow the chaotic exploits of our ragtag party as they unravel the mysteries surrounding the bustling city of Highcastle. Missing persons? Bed Bath and Beyond? Pit Fiends??? What could possibly go wrong?!?
Join Kris (our larger-than-life GM), Wallace (as the cunning Kurgan Thunderhowl), Nick (as the noble Gaius Banebritch), and Joel (as the enigmatic Scarlet Carson), with new episodes releasing every other Monday starting early 2025. Expect laughs, questionable decisions, and more dice-rolling disasters than you can shake a d20 at.
Here at the Barely Adequate Podcast, we aren’t that good at this, and you don’t have to be either!
After our heroes save the whole city; perhaps even the whole of Atrothia, they take some time to regroup and do some damage control. Join us as we get into exploring more of the city and the crazy people that inhabit it.
