Don't Call Us Heroes: A Tabletop RPG Adventure

Windy City Dice Boyzwww.dcuhshow.com

It can be hard to be a hero, but it is harder to ignore those cries for help while going to the local tavern. Twice a month, join Tim, Kyle, Joe, Kumar, Jon, and Alli as they run around ruining whatever story Sean has made ahead of time. Whether you are new to tabletop role-playing podcasts or a tried and true hardcore gamer, you should enjoy the team sitting down, sharing a drink and a good time while killing owlbears and arguing about the cost of TRex jerky. Surprisingly little dragons or dungeons to be found!

Ep 21: Trouble Came to Whisky Row

Our characters wonder around whisky row becoming friends with the local sheriff. With Seb, Carolus, and Unnamed (aka Blankie) walking into the bar they quickly make life long friendships with the locals and even get a job! Kamilla and Eggzile look for local supplies. And for some reason we have Tepid standing around in a trance. The team now splits into 4 different scenes…. so that is always fun for a DM! As they talk to the locals they start to learn more as a dark feeling of chaos starts to fi...

Ep 20: Welcome to Whisky Row

We follow our “heroes” after the aftermath of escaping from the city. We learn about the quest one of the charters needs to undertake due to their patron while they squabble over breakfast. Our players level up and increase their health. During this Joe looks ahead and asks if the paladin level up ability to grow wings will cause him to grow two more (it does) while making a reference about a very local commercial no one will know outside of the Chicago-land area. Tim also makes questionable cho...

Ep 19: Tepid Cockblocks Unnamed

Our main characters get the hell out of the area around the prison as quickly as they can. Now they must make camp and rest in order to recover from that horrible battle that was beyond pointless. I hope you guys all enjoyed it because from a DM perspective it was like I was Tepid running into a prison wall again and again. Will the teams be able to start to gel and form one team? Will Tepid continue to fuck up the Unnamed Solder’s chances with Si? Will they learn to work together? Find out! At ...

Ep 18: Hello Darkness My Old Chum

The Red Oaks left the battle field. The MoaKato father has saved from death. What are our “heroes” still doing outside the prison battling? It is like they don’t pick up on cues or something. The unnamed solder waits for his reward as he cleans his weapon. Seb is reminded he cant smell gold. And Kamila kills a man. Julie is not here but everyone is reminded she is a force to be reckoned with as she deals with adult things. Our teams debate if they should leave or not as the battle continues doin...

Ep 17: Baby Please Dont Go

And we are back to the main story! We leave off after the stabbing of the Moakato father in front of his daughters and the reaction to the Red Oak army, a group of racist elves that even other elves hate. Joe forgets what a centaur is while Sean continues to take over for Julie’s character while away since she has a life and adult responsibilities. Tim keeps trying to take over her voice acting much to Sean’s irritation. Kyle needs to be retaught his warlock ability…. again. Si and The Unnamed S...

4th of July Special Part 5 DUEL!

After Joe’s character yells duel against Ben Franklin, shit gets real. While Ben Franklin gets tired of the patriots shit (Aka, Tim, the DM gets tired of our shit) an epic final battle happens with some lasting consequences. This… this episode wasn’t even supported to happen. This was basically us trolling Tim. Tim never saw this coming. Who is the real monster here? The players were the monsters. Who will win?
