Dungeons & Dragons & Daughters

Endelyn the hag has fled Motherhorn rather than face certain death at the hands of The Breakfast Dudes. Stagefright, the goblin stage manager, offers his services and a tour of the castle now that Endelyn is gone. Searching through the castle, TBD encounters a number of current residents, TBD is reminded of all the things they have set out to do, and TBD takes the opportunity to address everyone that lives at Motherhorn in a quickly staged “team” meeting.

This is part 2 of this adventure. TBD sneaks into Endelyn’s room; they find Willow’s brother, Broseph; and then they come face-to-face with Endelyn herself, the dame of unhappy endings. This is a heavy combat episode, and the group accomplishes a milestone when it comes to dealing with the hourglass coven of hags!

This is part 1 of this adventure. The group comes back together, and with no negative consequences. No, really! The acrobatic twins, Gleam and Glister, are reunited and both Lyrup and Willow do their very best to convince them to stay and help with Endelyn before they try and bounce like the ungrateful elf prince, Alagarthas. This is also a very bro filled episode.

TBD splits the party! Most of the group goes with Stagefright, the goblin stage manager, to put on a play for Endelyn, while a smaller group goes off to find the prison in Motherhorn to find Gleam’s twin sister and Willow’s brother! Improv and acrobatic skills are on full display in this episode!

TBD makes it to Motherhorn to do all the things! They are looking for Willow’s little brother, Brosef. They are looking for Gleam’s sister. They are looking to help the people of the fey wild get out from under the shadow of the Hourglass Coven. And when they arrive at Motherhorn, they find out that they might be able to get Pinky’s rhythm back from the darklings that sold her a piece of pie.

True to their new slogan, TBD chooses death with the troupe of eight perytons that have been making Alagarthas’ life miserable in his attempt to light the beacons and get home. In this episode, we officially make the switch to Dungeons & Dragons 5.5 rules and the players get to try out some of the new mechanics and their new skills with the rule set change!

The beginning of this episode gets serious as we discuss the impact that ICE has had on the state of Minnesota. Parents use your discretion.

The actual adventure starts around the 15 minute mark. In this episode TBD finds that they need to defend Amador, the giant dandelion knight, and Pollenella, the giant queen honey bee, from a rampaging Cyclops bee keeper! It all could have been avoided if they just had better communication skills, but as Lyrup realizes by the end, and all of TBD is convinced as well, it’s friendship or death!

TBD makes their way out of Thither and towards Yon. But before they leave Thither completely behind they run into another resident that seems to have a case of mistaken identity. Eventually the group does make it to Yon, with Squirt’s help through the mountains. Here they are introduced to the realm of Endelyn Moongrave in all the realm’s dark and stormy glory. The group also wastes no time in running into additional people in Yon, but it remains to be seen if they are friends or foes.

The breakfast dudes have to deal with Skabatha the hag’s really angry garden! But it’s not like a vegetable garden, and Pinky really has to show off her spells for the group to get through it. The group figures out where they want to go next, and Tude adopts a new coping mechanism for dealing with the group’s chaotic energy.

With the group divided in Skabatha’s stronghold of Loomlurch, Lyrup works on freeing the prisoners in the kitchen, while the entire rest of the party moves on to Skabatha’s bedroom to find their lost things. Lyrup is successful through stubborn tenacity - while the rest of TBD is successful through murder and thievery (is it still murder if they’re undead?). TBD does become reunited; just in time for another encounter with a hag!

The group tries to move through Skabatha’s fallen tree lair as quickly as they can while the hag is distracted. In this episode, we also level the characters to level 5 as they satisfied this adventures’ milestone leveling requirement of encountering a hag for the first time and living to tell the tale! After leveling, The Breakfast Dudes continue moving with purpose but they commit the ultimate D&D sin: they split the party!

TBD meets Will of the Feywild and his Getaway Gang! A number of new characters of interest are in the gang and the groups join forces to execute Will’s daring plan on Loomlurch, Skabatha’s home. TBD executes their part of the plan, with the usual hijinks and distractions the group is known for. And they are also successful in getting Skabatha’s attention, but the attention may not be the kind the group hoped for.

The group tangles with the invisible orc and defends the unicorn, Lamorna! After getting some useful information on the state of affairs in Prismeer (the realm made up of Hither, Thither, and Yon), and its different areas ruled by the Hour Glass Coven of hags, the group sets off again to meet up with Will and his Getaway Gang!

Wow it’s been a while! The group talks to a kind stranger in a cave. They talk to a kind centaur in a forest. And then they head off to talk to who they hope are kind children that can help The Breakfast Dudes deal with Skabatha, or Granny Nightshade as she is known in these parts. But instead the group meets a very unkind orc!

The Breakfast Dudes return to the fey wild and get thrown right back into the action as the time frozen goats resume their charge! The players need some reminding on mechanics of their classes but they get there eventually! After dealing with the goats/red caps, the pixies give TBD a general direction to go as TBD continues their quest to find their lost things!

TBD gets an unexpected visit from Nictoo, the Winter Wizard! Nictoo apparently has the ability to freeze time to take our heroes briefly away from the Fey Wild and to the North Pole to deal with a wayward elf that has stolen Nictoo’s magical tome of Naughty & Nice. How did the elf get on the naughty list? Well, his name is Hans Gruber for a start. Ask your parents, kids.

TBD makes a deal with Bavlorna, with some consequences that will come up later. They then devise a plan do escape Hither with some new allies, rescue others, and travel to Thither where Skabatha is now the group’s focus. The Breakfast Dudes make falling out of a tree look easy.

The group manages to do some chores for Bavlorna without Pinky doing her chores dance. Both Willow and Lyrup find something they really really want in Bavlorna’s cottage, but only one of them is successful. The Breakfast Dudes also realize that time waits for no one, and things transpired while they were in Downfall’s jail.

TBD enters Bavlorna’s cottage again. Solitude stays outside as everyone is still supposed to think he is dead after the trial by combat. Pinky, Lyrup, and Willow bravely venture back into the cottage in the middle of the lake. The group meets other residents of the cottage and get another chance to reach a deal with the hag Bavlorna. But Lyrup is torn as she finds the location of their missing items.
