Ep. 15 - Welcome to the Dreamlands
Brilliant light floods through the open doors as the Munificent Three take their first steps into the Deeper Dreaming, only to reveal more mystery and uncertainty than before. A vast forest infested with little keepers extends in all directions, and something off in the distance yowls with pain. Has the party made a fatal mistake in coming here? Will they survive long enough to emerge into the waking world with their minds intact?

Ep. 14 - The Stairs Vol. 3
Low on health, resources, and grit, the Munificent Three stagger to their final destination at the base of the ethereal stairway into the Deeper Dreaming. Much has been gained from the trip, from demonic allies to ancient secrets, but everything teeters on the edge of disaster. The stairway has one final test awaiting our vagrants to prove their worth. Will it be the final shove over the edge, or the last push the party needs to succeed?

Ep. 13 - Bravely Stupid
Mysteries abound on the stairs into the Deeper Dreaming. A chance encounter with a servant of the Queen of Secrets has briefly halted the Munificent Three in their tracks. Questions demand to be answered, and the path beyond will be more perilous than the path before. What will be sacrificed on the way to the truth? In the end, will it be worth it?

Ep. 12 - Gregrioth, Servant of Queen Hadea
The way into the Deeper Dreaming has opened wide for our fugitives. Now comes the final journey down into the impenetrable darkness of the 777 steps. But the darkness is not empty; something lurks out of sight, always looking for its chance to strike. Many have tried to take this path. Many have failed. Some remain trapped, their malicious spirits searching for life to claim as their own. Will the Munificent Three become their next victims? Or will the darkness demand... something more?

Ep. 11 - To the Dream Lands
With a skiff full of powder and treasure in tow, the Munificent Six glide into Riverbed with their eyes set on more than a fistful of coins. But Dag Nabbit isn't the only valuable contact in this one-chicken town; strangers both wise and dangerous linger just out of sight. What sort of information can the spoils of war buy? Secrets? Inspiration? Or perhaps...the guidance of a cursed pandimensional loudmouth?

Ep. 10 - The Doctor Is In
After assaulting the Guild depot, one mystery remains for the Munificent Six: the second warehouse within it, a rather unusual installment for such an outpost. Rumor has it that something evil is brewing inside, and an old woman has been coming and going from it. What dark secrets remain to be uncovered? Can our amateur bandits pilfer what's left without a trace, or will they unleash horrors from beyond the mortal realm?

Ep. 9 - The Munificent Six
The target: one Guild supply depot, a day's skiff ride Northwest of Riverbed. The spoils: enough gunpowder to choke a dozen sand chickens, plus any other artifacts that might be hidden away. The team: a gunslinger, a warrior, a scholar, a bandit, a thief, and a hunter. The problem: twenty armed guards and a literal sniper from Hell, and only one shot to pull it off. It's time for the Depot Job.

Ep. 8 - Blake Boys
Halfling children in tow, our victorious vagrants stride confidently back into Riverbed, anxious to begin planning the heist of a lifetime. A Guild supply depot sits alone to the Northwest, isolated and, supposedly, almost unguarded. A job so easy that a halfling thief almost pulled it off himself. But there are rumblings of movement within the camp: strange visitors and extra guards arriving via giant birds. And to top it off, our part-time heroes aren't the only ones interested in the information Dag Nabbit has at his disposal...

Ep. 7 - Finding The Way
Holed up in a cave among the desert bluffs, the Smelly Fellas turn in for the night to rest up for the journey back to Riverbed in the morning. They awaken, of course, in a cave...but not out in the desert. In fact, the cold, gray expanse of flat rock that now extends for miles below the cave mouth is a far cry from the Dearth, but something about it is very familiar. How did our vagrants get here, and what will it take to get out this time?

Ep. 6 - The Clod Family
Sent out to investigate the brutal slaughter of Alora's brother-in-law, the Smelly Fellas have trekked across the desert to Vagrant's Pass in search of a hideous beastie. As night falls, something cackles from among the rocks that line the gloomy ravine. What evils lurk in the darkness? Is this all just the random work of a ferocious predator, or is there something yet more sinister pulling the strings? Can our heroes survive long enough to find out?
24 Feb 2020
Ep. 5 - The Job
Welcome to Dag Nabbit's Emporium! A humble little mercantile with all the odds and ends you could ever need. Take a look around, purchase whatever you like, and be on your way. Or...are you interested in a late-night deal over coffee? There's some very particular items upstairs that may interest you...if you've got the stomach for it.
The Smelly Fellas are out late tonight on the promise of a potentially lucrative deal. Will it lead them to riches, or just further tragedy?
20 Feb 2020
Ep. 4 - The Nabbits
When the sled runners are in town, Riverbed becomes wild with activity. Many foul things lurk behind closed doors: murder, demons, contraband, patchouli gravy...and our fugitives are caught right in the middle. Threads lead out of town in every direction. How many lead to riches and glory, and how many lead to certain death?
13 Feb 2020
Ep. 3 - Continental
Unable to flee from our fugitives, the shifty and talkative treasure hunter Barrows promises them something of value if they assist him with his investigation of Brick Point. Visiting the old factory was intended to be a brief detour on the road to Riverbed, but could it become the party's final destination?
8 Feb 2020
Ep. 2 - The Ruins of Brick Point
Our valiant vagabonds awaken from their desert slumber to a cold, alien landscape of rocks and cliffs, with a winged monstrosity screeching down upon them. Is this real life, or is this just fantasy? Will the party survive long enough to find out? One thing is certain: the party can't run from their pasts forever, and the past often finds a way to catch up...
