Three adventurers wake up in an inn with several weeks of lost time and five magical tattoos on their arms. After the tattoos force the adventurers to do the bidding of their five creators, the party must embark on a quest to free themselves from this curse.

Curse of Radiance is a Tabletop RPG Actual Play podcast where we use the Pathfinder 2e ruleset to play through the old-school Forgotten Realms adventure Curse of the Azure Bonds.

Our heroes meet two icons of the realm- Alias and Dragonbait, two adventurers who dealt with their own tattoos in the past. They are also on a quest to deal with the looming threat of Moander, the Jawed God- can this full party get to the bottom of the mystery, or will they just get their hands dirty?Contact us: InterPartyConflict@Gmail.comVisit our blog: www.interpartyconflict.comFind us on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/inpartyconflict.bsky.socialOr on Facebook: www.facebook.com/InterPartyConflict/And join our Discord: bit.ly/interpartydiscord

Back in the present, Torunn is gone, and in his place- somehow- is Benjil Turcott, one of the figures the party witnessed during the Legend Lore ritual. And he, too, is cursed with the Azure Bonds.

Amalessya, Lak'hot, and Entro have encountered the monastery's guardian, one of the many gods of Kara-tur.

The cultists know that the Living Tree is tapping into a pool of radiance, and Amalessya has made her wish known to it.
