Dastardly Dungeoneers


3 episodes


Synopsis:

As days darken and the light of hope begins to wither, travelers on the frontier yearn for a hero to shape the new world's future...


Following the wreckage of the Great War, the newly unified Feraelands found themselves taken advantage of by the Nine Archdevils of the Hells – conniving children of the Gods who targeted struggling frontier families and soldiers, offering them otherworldly powers beyond mortal comprehension at the measly cost of their soul post-mortem. 


Zenith couldn’t bear to see her beloved mortals be taken advantage of; choosing four individuals from different walks of life to serve as her Chosen, who succeeded in reforming the relationship between the surface and the Hells. In the beginning – this brought a gale of positive change to the Feraelands. But, once the journey was over, time continued its cruel march as our heroes grew jaded, resentful – disillusioned with the responsibilities placed on their heavy shoulders. 


With each beast felled, a new, deadlier foe would arise – and as the four took on everything from corrupt tax collectors to dragons displacing entire settlements with their almost otherworldly abilities, the unity that once bathed the Feraelands in a Golden light of hope had begun to dim.


Years have passed since these legendary heroes were plucked from their everyday lives and sent down a path of adventuring for “a higher purpose”. Our gilded heroes of the Feraelands were weathered by the region’s never-ending storm and one faithful day many years ago, the four cut ties and decided to carve their own paths – at least, that’s what they thought the fates had in store for them.

Episode 2 - From Stories Borrowed

Tue, 17 Jun 2025 09:00:00 GMT

As the deep dragon our now-reunited heroes stumbled across rears back its head to intoxicate them with poisonous spores and a glimpse into their pasts, the Golden Lady's Chosen discover that not all is as it seems in the depths of the monster's lair.


Despite their clean-up mission seeming rather mundane at first glance, it appears as though there's a greater, far more malicious scheme looming overhead as they discover evidence that the oldest of the Archdevils may be plotting to threaten the peace they've established throughout the Feraelands.


As many of the problems that tore this legendary party apart begin to resurface throughout their investigation, can these legendary heroes set aside their deep-rooted differences long enough to get to the bottom of the Ninth's schemes?

Episode 1 - Heroic Has-Beens

Tue, 10 Jun 2025 09:00:00 GMT

Following the wreckage of the Great War, the newly unified Feraelands found themselves taken advantage of by the Nine Archdevils of the Hells – conniving children of the Gods who targeted struggling frontier families and soldiers, offering them otherworldly powers beyond mortal comprehension at the measly cost of their soul post-mortem. 


Zenith couldn’t bear to see her beloved mortals be taken advantage of; choosing four individuals from different walks of life to serve as her Chosen, who succeeded in reforming the relationship between the surface and the Hells. In the beginning – this brought a gale of positive change to the Feraelands. But, once the journey was over, time continued its cruel march as our heroes grew jaded, resentful – disillusioned with the responsibilities placed on their heavy shoulders. 


With each beast felled, a new, deadlier foe would arise – and as the four took on everything from corrupt tax collectors to dragons displacing entire settlements with their almost otherworldly abilities, the unity that once bathed the Feraelands in a Golden light of hope had begun to dim.


Years have passed since these legendary heroes were plucked from their everyday lives and sent down a path of adventuring for “a higher purpose”. Our gilded heroes of the Feraelands were weathered by the region’s never-ending storm and one faithful day many years ago, the four cut ties and decided to carve their own paths – at least, that’s what they thought the fates had in store for them.


In our first episode, we follow four aged and burnt out heroes reunite for one final quest -- a clean-up job hindering the work of well-meaning miners on the west coast. What should have been an easy fix quickly turns sour as the storybook legends' endless bickering gets them entangled in a web of trouble that will change their lives forever...
