Roll Dice And Cry

Toulaine is as idyllic a town as any could imagine to find in the Archipelago, but it is not without its secrets. Tiuku Bell delves into the city's criminal underbelly, while Zara Fontaine makes an interesting discovery. Together, our heroes must strike out into the wilderness in pursuit of their goal, but who's to say what else stalks the woods of Toulaine? This week on Roll Dice and Cry: there's good news and bad news. Cast:Zachary Fredrickson (@obfuscatinggod)Mari Costa (@Marinscos)Emily Riesbeck (@thebluevalkyrie)Chander (@chanderclear)Amy Sloan (@effsie)Noora Udelius (@snoorau) See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

For years, the people of Kiln Near Purple Meadows have counted on Pathminder Kurranty as a source of guidance and wisdom to any who felt doubt or fear in their place along the Path. Now, Ford, Radiant and Adeline make their way to the Shrine Near Purple Meadows to seek answers of their own. They each hope for the holy man's help, but can one person truly have answers to all the questions burning in our heroes' hearts? Do some of their questions have any answers at all?

Belvedere University stands as a testament to the academic pedigree of Galyria's best and brightest. Many of the most influential people in the Archipelago have passed through it's halls, not least of all the current members of the Admiralty Council and their families.However, regardless of the intellectual bounty that Belvedere University may provide, it is not our heroes' aim. Somewhere in the hilly countryside of Toulaine rests an even more tantalizing prospect, and it is up to Zara Fontaine and Tiuku Bell to track it down and utilize it properly.This week on Roll Dice And Cry: knowledge is the greatest treasure of all.Cast:Zachary Fredrickson (@obfuscatinggod)Mari Costa (@Marinscos)Emily Riesbeck (@thebluevalkyrie)Chander (@chanderclear)Amy Sloan (@effsie)Noora Udelius (@snoorau) See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Ford, Radiant and Adeline have arrived at Kiln Near Purple Meadows and defeated a monster that was attacking the town. But the damage the creature left still needs to be repaired, and so our heroes help the town to put out their fires and make sure everyone’s okay. Saving the day is one thing, but picking up the pieces is more complex, and Kiln Near Purple Meadows might not be as receptive and thankful as our heroes expect.This week on Roll Dice And Cry: How will you fix this?Cast:Zachary Fredrickson (@obfuscatinggod)Mari Costa (@Marinscos)Emily Riesbeck (@thebluevalkyrie)Chander (@chanderclear)Amy Sloan (@effsie)Noora Udelius (@snoorau) See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

While the name “Tiuku” might elicit little more than a shrug and an upturned nose from most of The Archipelago’s elite, they’ve certainly come to know and fear her alter ego: the famous Bell Thief. Tiuku has been responsible for countless high-profile burglaries from Gourzon to South Pillars, and now she has her eye set on the magnificent splendor of Gregarious Pirrenoue, Culture Admiral of the Prosperous Nation of Galyria. But while she may be used to armed guards, moonlit vistas and clandestine infiltration, in Azure Bay she faces a never-before-seen threat to her stellar criminal record: the earnest attempted aid of the clumsy and brilliant inventor Zara Fontaine.

Having successfully gained entry into the unfamiliar territories of Zolyat, our heroes decide the best thing to do is get some food into their new guide and draw as much information out of him as they can before moving on. Between history lessons, religious stories, and a whole lot of fish, the shape of Zolyat begins to take form in our heroes' minds. The question on everybody's mind, however, continues to ring: what kind of calamity exactly are they here to stop? This week on Roll Dice And Cry: how do you know what it was like?

More than a simple hub of trade, Azure Bay stands as a testament to the vast wealth and influence of Galyria. Street corners and storefronts are blanketed in opulence, ensuring all who travel to the jewel of the coastline see firsthand that Galyria is a nation of plenty. No one understands this more deeply than Gregarious Pirrenoue, Culture Admiral of Galyria and old friend of Lady Morgana Deeplore. Zara and Tiuku’s quest brings them face to face with this larger-than-life persona, but will he receive them with open arms... or closed doors? This week on Roll Dice And Cry: Where's the line?

A few days inland on the southern half of the strange, rigidly organized island nation of Zolyat, there is a village where purple flowers bloom. Ilyana Toratora, the Lady Brighteyes, clairyvoyant wife of Lady Deeplore, holds grave fears for the future of this village, the place of her birth. To ensure that the harm she forsees does not befall this little town, she has requested the assistance of Radiant Eyre, Adeline Fleetwood, and Ford Maphorn to find and protect it from what terrible harm may lie just over the horizon.

Hey, y'all! Unfortunately, we weren't able to get the episode up and ready this week, but I wanted to at least record a little message to let you know what was up. Check back next week for episode 10! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Once, there was a vast and intricate network of communication nodes that stretched across the islands of the endless sea, pinprick stars in a constellation that allowed face to face communication across hundreds of leagues instantaneously. Now, that great lattice has fallen into disrepair, with only a handful of nodes left standing, inactive and silent. Zara Fontaine and Tiuku Bell have been dispatched to the university town of Toulaine, hoping to find and reactivate one such node. Before they get there, however, they must make it through the trade hub of Azure Bay, the jewel of the Galyrian coastline. Such a bustling city provides ample opportunity for our heroes to engage in commerce, make new friends, and even cause a little mischief!This week on Roll Dice And Cry: Would you like to come inside?Cast:Zachary Fredrickson (@obfuscatinggod)Mari Costa (@Marinscos)Emily Riesbeck (@thebluevalkyrie)Chander (@chanderclear)Amy Sloan (@effsie)Noora Udelius (@snoorau) See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out info

Having had the chance to investigate their Celestial Armature Frames and reflect on what they’ve learned, our heroes finally come back together as a group. They’ll only have a short while to confide in one another and swap their concerns: A visitor is coming to the Titans' Bastion, and with them, new adventures on the horizon.This week on Roll Dice and Cry: What next?CastZachary Fredrickson (twitter.com/obfuscatinggod) as The Game MasterMari Costa (twitter.com/Marinscos) as Radiant EyreEmily Riesbeck (twitter.com/thebluevalkyrie) as Zara FontaineChander (twitter.com/chanderclear) as Ford MaphornAmy Sloan (twitter.com/effsie) as Adeline FleetwoodNoora Udelius (twitter.com/snoorau) as Tiuku Bell See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Having survived their harrowing encounter in the bowels of the Bastion, our heroes find they’ve been given a rare and fleeting gift: time. Time to contemplate what they’ve been told, what they believe, and what their place in all this is. Nemo says it’s up to them to save the world, but do they even want a part in this? Do they have a choice? And just what can these Celestial Armature Frames do? This week on Roll Dice and Cry: We Dig Giant Robots.

Enormous stone sarcophagi cast two thousand year old shadows over The Expeditionary Force in the deepest depths of the citadel. But even older dangers lurk within the hallowed halls of the Titans.

Danger and mystery abound as the Expeditionary Force delves ever deeper into the strange, ancient citadel. But, as questions begin to pile up and our heroes' trust in Nemo begins to fray at the edges, who can say what they'll truly find at the end of this adventure?This week, on Roll Dice And Cry: why us?CastZachary Fredrickson (twitter.com/obfuscatinggod) as The Game MasterMari Costa (twitter.com/Marinscos) as Radiant EyreEmily Riesbeck (twitter.com/thebluevalkyrie) as Zara FontaineChander (twitter.com/chanderclear) as Ford MaphornAmy Sloan (twitter.com/effsie) as Adeline FleetwoodNoora Udelius (twitter.com/snoorau) as Tiuku Bell See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Their only way back to the Hand in Hand blocked by a monstrous fish, our heroes have no choice but to venture deeper into the island. Bartimaeus Nemo is thrilled by every discovery they make, but as wild, untamed forests give way to more ancient structures and curious artifacts, the Expeditionary Force begins to wonder just what they've gotten themselves into...

Gigantic stone monuments loom over the Hand in Hand as it makes it’s landfall.

Water laps lazily onto the Hand in Hand’s bow as it sails through placid waters towards the shores of an island that should not be there. It’s quiet out here in the dark, and most of its crew slumbers below deck, wanting to be well rested before landfall. But abovedeck, some still restlessly stir, unable or unwilling to let the embrace of night drift them to dreamland. Five adventurers—our stories’ heroes—swap stories with each other to pass the midnight hours. They’ll be getting to know one another, forming opinions, and asking questions, but each of them has plenty to conceal, and nobody needs to be forthcoming. At least, not for now… This week on Roll Dice and Cry, we’ll be getting to know our main cast by playing Night Watch in the Ruins of the Future, a micro-game by D.

Off the southern coast of Galyria, a mysterious island has appeared seemingly out of thin air. Undeterred by this suspicious addition to their maps, an anonymous bankroller has chartered Armada Captain Daria D’Ebonair and her ship, the Hand in Hand, to investigate and chart the landmass. Captain D’Ebonair is joined by the hot-shot celestialist Bartimaeus Nemo and an eclectic group of adventurers from around The Archipelago... Welcome to Roll Dice and Cry’s Introductory episode! In this episode, we’ll be doing some world building and introducing the characters of our Dungeon World campaign, titled “On The Shoulders of Giants.” Cast: Zachary Fredrickson (obfuscatinggod) as The Game Master Mari Costa (Marinscos) as Radiant Eyre Emily Riesbeck (thebluevalkyrie) as Zara Fontaine Chander (chanderclear) as Ford Maphorn Amy Sloan (effsie) as Adeline Fleetwood Noora Udelius (snoorau) as Tiuku Bell See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
