Read excerpt
Back with the main party and their newfound acquaintance, the search for Eldred continues. Jett is forced to face her past once again as the group heads into the underground to not only investigate the sounds of the screams, but hope they have something to do with Eldred. Adalina refuses to give up on her friend. What is the cost of a mission this risky? Welcome to Off the Beaten Quest — a D&D actual play podcast set in the homebrew world of Aarencia.

Perfect Storm (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most episodes belong to the players. This one belongs to the Dungeon Master. Justin paints a world in this episode that feels vast, yet claustrophobic - voicing a significant number of NPCs, showcasing power structures that make Aarencia feel real in a way that only great homebrew worldbuilding can.

By the time the party finds their inn and sits down to a warm meal, it almost feels like things might settle. After reconciling with Tomoé, Eldred is gone. A note is the only explanation left behind. Most of the party takes it at face value. But darker forces have been moving in the backgroun
Reflections (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Tomoé ends the fight and proves something the party probably already knew — she is not the one to challenge. Eldred is on the back foot while Jett & Adalina find common ground and Jett learns that not all birds are bad. Isolated and unraveling in a way she probably wouldn't admit to, Eldred lashes out at herself — leaving her gyroscope behind as she walks away from it all.
