Halfwits & Failed Crits
01/01/20 • 0 min
Welcome to Halfwits & Failed Crits!
We are an actual play tabletop role playing podcast where Game Master Jonathan tries to get his players to the end of a campaign, even if their cursed dice have other plans.
Season 1 is Worlds Divided, a Dungeons and Dragons 5e campaign where an unlikely group forms a guild, and makes it their mission to upstage the top ranked guild in the nation. This is your standard Sword and Sorcery Fantasy, filled with monsters, quests, and mysterious rifts? You’ll see.
Season 2 is Children of the Spine, a sci-fi space opera where the players are young adults trying to learn who they are, where they are, and what they are going to do with themselves after being rescued from a very Lord of the Flies type situation on an isolated planet. There is also a prequel to season two where they play max level space pirates hunting objects related to the event that brought our Children together.
We also have some bonus episodes such as Backstabbing Beasties, where we play as immortal monsters racing to obtain a chalice that will make us mortal so they can finally rest in peace. We actually recommend that you start listening with Backstabbing Beasties, as it’s self contained, rules light so it’s easy to follow, and the first episode they recorded with great audio equipment and added tons of sound design that will become the norm in Season 2.

Hey its just your Dungeon Master today with some stories to tell of the personal lives of our precious Syndicate before they became a guild! Since we had a bit of extra upload time, but not enough to push the first actual play episode out, Jonathan reads the backstories that everyone wrote when they created their characters.
Adriel makes a friend, Anya starts The Trial, Melara hides an heirloom, and Nyxtern is a feral child.

We rejoin the crew of the Resonance hot off of their battle in Barbalil, a second pre-scream artifact secured. As they make their way to the next set of deciphered coordinates, the planet Ephet-Izaki, we get a rare glimpse at the mundane lives of world class pirates. Infestations, robots, photographs, and a resource crisis all keep the long spike drill rides...interesting. On planet, Madam N.O.S. (Kiley) revisits her Alma Mater, CaseyNova's (Luis) latest creation roams menacingly, Tantalus (Laura) steals from a professor, Veil (Mary) does the captains job for them, and Sasha (Bobby) hallucinates with some college kids. With so many distractions will they remember to find the hidden artifact? Find out on Children of the Spine - Prequel Part III!
