  • Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 010: All Aboard

    Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 010: All Aboard

    010 – All Aboard

    There’s a whole lot of sheet involved here, and very little is understood. But that’s the feywild for you. Between a cat, a crabbit, and a big beetle, we might be able to get to the bottom of it… but probably not.

    Featuring the vocal talents of: Amanda Clements, Ben Avery, Celeste Mora, Dave Clements, John Harju, John-Michel Bilezikian, Josiah Crandall, and Katherine Bilezikian

  • Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 009: In The Air Tonight

    Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 009: In The Air Tonight

    009 – In The Air Tonight

    Can you feel it? The feywild remains as mysterious as ever, but there’s nothing that a snack and a cup of tea can’t fix! Unless the problem is a friend missing their skin and other members of your party wandering off alone. In that case, the party isn’t sure of the cure.

  • Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 008: You’re Lion to Me

    Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 008: You’re Lion to Me

    008 – You’re Lion to Me

    The ground is purple, time is distance, and things might be getting back into order. At least for an inch (minute?). Until we learn about even bigger problems that are coming after the party and show no signs of stopping.

  • Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 007: Into the Feywild

    Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 007: Into the Feywild

    007 – Into the Feywild

    And we’re off on an adventure! After successfully making it into the Feywild, the party encounters some unique situations as they continue on their quest to find poor Skellene’s skin. Maybe the local town will hold the answers they seek.

  • Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 006: Are You My Mother?

    Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 006: Are You My Mother?

    006 – Are You My Mother?

    Nothing like a trip to the necromancer to really lighten the mood and lift the spirits… literally! Things don’t exactly go as planned when returning to Nick, but the party takes it all in stride.

    Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 005: There, But Not There

    005 – There, But Not There

    The party chases after Zellene, who wakes from a deep sleep convinced that she has to return home. Reality, time, and everyone’s understanding of the arcane might be challenged by the time it’s all over.

    Nightmares & Dreamscapes – 004: Foot Inn Mouth

    004 – Foot Inn Mouth

    The party can’t help but pick up new strays where ever they go, and lose money at the same time it seems. With time to kill before returning to Dr. Nick, there’s no telling how much trouble they can get into.
