Skulltenders

<p>A DND podcast about necromancers, psychic wastoids, and the civil servants who take them down.</p> <p>When ghosts, necromancers, and magical monstrosities raise a ruckus in the land of the living, the Skulltenders will answer! Join a cat-lady rogue, an owl with human legs, and their inflexible Gooman chaperone in a hilarious and horrifying tabletop adventure that mixes the thrilling pacing of monster-of-the-week play with the addictive intrigue of a long-term campaign. </p> <p>Professional game-writer Cohen Edenfield draws on a decade of DMing to delight and terrorize webcomics titan KC Green, gamer culture luminary Jess O’Brien, and punk rocker Amber Carr, AKA “the Horror Games Elvira.” Tight editing, immersive sound design, and Seth Boyer’s original music round out what many friends and family members of the cast are calling “the perfect D&D podcast.”</p>

Skulltenders Presents: A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens

Happy Holidays! As we gather round friends and family, we hope you’ll enjoy our rendition of Dickens’ holiday-defining morality fable. May its lessons cheer and chill, as applicable. We’ll be back with our regularly-scheduled programming, and the conclusion of High Noon, at the usual time next week. This production was made possible by our generous patrons, without whom we would not be able to do extra stuff like this. Many and more sundry treats are available on our Patreon, with more to come weekly and in the New Year! If you enjoy listening, please consider joining at https://www.patreon.com/Skulltenders
