    Twice in a Blue Moon | DesiQuest Winter Special Episode 3

    This episode, we meet Sitara and Laddoo Auntie - who have been welcomed as respected guests in the palace - after weeks of attempting to reason with the King, trying to exonerate Murkha & Raj who have been less fortunate, and accused of crimes they did not commit.  Meanwhile, Ash has devoted himself to decoding the horoscope bestowed upon him by his late grandparents, hunkering down in the palace’s astrology tower.  Murkha and Raj find themselves imprisoned in the depths of a crypt, fighting off increasingly intrusive thoughts and dark magics that surround them.  Will Ash crack his grandparents’ code, the last gift he’ll ever receive from his family? Will Sitara and Laddoo Auntie convince the King to grant Will Murkha and Raj their freedom? Will Murkha and Raj hold onto their sanity? ____ This episode is sponsored by Chaosium!

Join us as we take you through the highs of our recent live event at PAX Unplugged, where the energy of our enthusiastic supporters was nothing short of electric.

We unravel the power of humor as a shield, revealing how TTRPGs offer a sanctuary for actors to navigate the complexities of their characters' lives, as well as their own. Later, we whisk you away to the unique atmosphere of Critical Role Live at Wembley, sharing candid moments and the sheer joy that comes from the unpredictability of the dice roll – proving that sometimes, a natural one can be as thrilling as a critical hit.
