The group also wastes no time in
90. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 20
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.

89. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 19
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 tim
88. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 18
The group tries to move through Skabatha’s fallen tree lair as quickly as they can while the hag is distracted.

After leveling, The Breakfast Dudes continue moving with purpose but they commit the ultimate
87. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 17
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.

And they are also successful in getting Skabatha’s attention, but the attention may not be the kind t
86. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 16
The group tangles with the invisible orc and defends the unicorn, Lamorna!

85. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 15
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!
84. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 14
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 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.
80. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 10
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

76. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 6

The to be named group navigates the swamp of Hither. They encounter a number of the strange residents of this swamp land held in perpetual twilight.

This episode also has fire babies.
74. DDD The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Session 4

63. DDD The Beginning of the End, Part 5
Christopherson shows the girls what the world would be like without him in it. And it’s not at all what they had expected. Although, if the three musketeers are in it, it has the usual hi jinx, arguing, and whiskey drinking that you would normally expect.

Meme, Gallexy, and Fat Deb finally find out what’s going on inside of Mount Olympus since the Fireforge Dwarves had taken over. They find some old friends, who aren’t in the best of shape, and finally, they come face-to-face with Christopherson!

56. DDD The City of Atlantis, Part 7
It’s a fight with a Lich and a Death Knight! The group hesitates on whether or not they should stay or run as their goal had always been to just rescue the souls of Betha and Blondie. The problem is that the souls are trapped in small cages that hang from the belts of the powerful undead creatures.

51. DDD The City of Atlantis, Part 2
The group enters the city of Atlantis looking for someone, or something, that can give them clues on where to go to find the souls of Blondie and Betha.
