  • D's Journal: Brave (Abridged Episode 38)
    Sep 13 2025

    In which D doesn't get shot at, subjected to anti-human racial slurs, captured, robbed of her magic, tortured, thrown off a building, mind-erased, or killed, which automatically makes DunBroch her favorite domain of 2025. D chooses the bear! The in-character fiction from the episode without the in-depth out-of-character discussion of the domain.

    Death (minor), body horror (transformation; minor)

  • Episode 38: Brave
    Sep 13 2025
    Welcome to Wonderful World of Darklords! In this episode, Callaghan is finally dethroned as "darklord with the fewest lines of usable dialog" as we make a darklord out of...a bear. Not a werebear. Not a talking bear. Just a bear. But he's a bear who comes with a gothic curse and with FANTASY SCOTLAND, so it's well worth the effort of making him a darklord. Topics discussed include:Why Mor'du is going to want to throw down with your PCs even if they don't feed anyone a magic tart that turns them into a bear (although that would certainly help);All the world-building information about clans MacIntosh, MacGuffin, and Dingwall that Tom was able to glean or extrapolate from a deep dive into Brave's ancillary material;The canonical domain that works beautifully with DunBroch as the source of the invading force that temporarily united the clans (no, not Original Recipe Falkovnia);Strahd or bear;And more!The full write-up for DunBroch is available on DM's Guild: https://www.dmsguild.com/product/534982/The-Brave-Highlands-A-Ravenloft-Domain-of-Dread?affiliate_id=241770Yes, Tom's Nightmare on Elm Street adventure IS finished! https://www.dmsguild.com/product/534715/Never-Sleep-AgainTimestamps0:00 Introduction3:57 The Lord36:37 The Land1:06:23 Dread Possibilities1:40:13 Parting Thoughts 2:01:42 D’s Parting ThoughtsContent Advisory for D's Journal (details on content advisories can be found on Facebook, Tumblr, and Patreon)Death (minor), body horror (transformation; minor)All music recordings are in the public domain (mark 1.0) and are licensed through https://musopen.org:Chopin Nocturne in B-Flat Minor, Op. 9 No.1 (main theme), performed by Eduardo VinuelaChopin Etude Op. 25, No. 12 in C Minor: “Ocean” (darklord theme), performed by Edward NeemanChopin Nocturne in F Minor, Op. 55 No. 1 (land theme), performed by Luke FaulknerRachmaninoff Morceaux de Fantaisie, Op. 3 - 2.

  • D's Letter to Binx: Conversation With Azalin
    Sep 1 2025

    Note: This letter takes place immediately after the Owl House episode, so please make sure to listen to that one first.

    In which D has the warlock equivalent of a salary negotiation, making all of us deeply grateful that Azalin isn't our supervisor.

    Content Advisory (details on content advisories can be found on Facebook, Tumblr, and Patreon)

    Abusive relationship subtext (major; eggshell walking, trauma bonding), corpses (major), torture (major), vomit (moderate). If you struggled with D's emotional distress in the Thanos episode...you might just need to skip this one.
