Description

Could’ve Been Heroes is an actual play podcast where six old friends adventure as six total strangers who, after missing their shots at destiny, now get a second chance to make a mess of everything.Set in the land of Faritall, a world cast in the spirit of Wonderland and Oz, but with more murder, blood and swears. This strange, wondrous place of living fairytales and walking nightmares is recovering from a very near apocalypse after a flood of darkness fell upon it from The World Above. Told in a new and developing game system of our own design focused on exciting characters based on classic fairytale tropes, twisted, subverted and modernized. Would you suffer the Sacred Curses for spectacular power and near immortality? Yeah, so would we.
