Cobb Squad

"The OG Cobb Squad" by reddit user u/HoneyCrumbs

The Cobb Squad is a group of Crick fighters lead by Ol' Cobb.

## Members

Current Members

* Ol' Cobb
* Hardin
* Various other crick elves

Former Members

* Jolene the Green
* Marabelle
* Cooter

## Role in The Story

**Prior to The Story**

At some point, Cobb adventured alongside Jolene and Marabelle. This trio could be considered as the original Cobb squad, or a predecessor to it. The group once traveled to the Elemental Chaos together. They eventually broke up after Marabelle and Jolene got into a fight, and the former was taken under the command of Ilsed.

**The Cutthroat Chronicles**

When The Boobs part ways with Ol' Cobb, he introduces them to Hardin and the other members of the Cobb Squad. Hardwon is notably jealous, especially of Hardin and the Cobb Squad shirts, but the old crick elf reveals that he made them shirts to wear in his absence.
Boots of Speed

**The Boots of Speed** allow the wearer to click their heels together to double their speed for a certain amount of time.

## Trivia

Beverly claims that there is an informational tag that informs the user they must say "Yippie Skippy" before they click their heels, but Balnor insists there is no such tag. In any case, Beverly always says it before he activates the shoes.
Eldermourne Episode 32: People on the Inside

**People on the Inside** is the thirty-second episode in campaign 2.

The Third Mates are split after Fia's daring save! Hank upgrades Spoony, Fia joins a mission to help an old friend, and Zirk does his best to not be murdered by his new commander.

## Trivia

* An earlier version of this episode was the first in NADDPod history to be completely lost in editing, to the point where they had to rerecord. This original version had the audience meet Krissy and Johnny this episode although they didn't do much. It also saw Emily play a different character, a Bride of Frankenstein looking Horror named Stitcher(who was a Swarmkeeper Ranger/Assassin Rogue multiclass). Murph maintains that this earlier episode was worse.

Dunston

**Dunston** is the Lord Scythe’s right hand and best friend.

## Bio

Dunston carried out the kidnapping of Izer and assisted Lord Scythe in his torture.

## Description

Dunston is a reedy zombie who is very loyal. He probably isn’t really the Lord Scythe’s best friend.

Bukvar

**Bukvar** is an enchanted book and Fia Boginya's familiar.

## Description

Bukvar is an animated spell book who can move by flying. He typically follows Fia around and is found floating over her shoulder. He is known for his nervous disposition and Fia frequently teases him about his cowardliness. Fia sometimes casts *Dragon's Breath* on Bukvar when in combat, dramatically deepening his voice and making him significantly more aggressive as he becomes capable of breathing fire. He also manifests as a very cute octopus when the Third Mates have to travel through the flooded parts of the Temple of the Guardians.

When Bukvar's essence is removed from his book body by Moxora, he briefly takes the form of a bookish little boy with glasses. This anthropomorphized version of Bukvar "looks like Fia's little brother," even boasting a set of his own tusks.

## Role In The Story

Upon his introduction to the story, Bukvar appears to be no more than Fia's familiar. However, he grows to have more significance to the plot as the story progresses and he and Fia's backstory is revealed.

In a flashback, Fia is put on trial for an unspecified act of "trickster magic." Fia later confirms that this crime was Bukvar's enchantment, which was actually performed by Fia's "girlhood friend," Irina.

## Trivia

* "Bukvar" means "spelling book" in several Slavic languages - specifically, it refers to a simplistic book for teaching spelling and grammar to children, like an ABC.

The Bone and Barrel is a loud, rowdy bar. The tavern is normally very smokey with people using strange pipes with multi-colored powders in the bowl. There are shady people left and right, along with a really little zoned-out shaking goblin sitting at a table alone. It is typically full of a variety of eccentric occupants, including drug dealers and criminals. Skullis and Reeva are drug lords who sell R. Cane in the tavern and run illegal fights in the underground ring below the bar.

The drink is one part Goblin's piss, which causes the drinker to melt through the floor and merge in the basement. Hardwon ends up fighting One-Eyed Ryan and a Crazy Gnoll. The Gnoll ends up exploding into colored energy after snorting too much R. Cane. Afterward, the spectators flee as Stunkbug and the Band of Boobs face off against Skullis and Reeva.

## Trivia

* All of the waiters are Goblins and Kenkus and wear little blue bowler hats, which grant them access to the basement.
* To go downstairs to the fight ring without a blue bowler, one must order a special drink at the bar by asking the bartender "Can I have the house special?" When the bartender replies, "We don't have a house special... but I could fix you for something special, how are you feeling?" you would need to say "Feeling down."

Dwarphanage

**The article "Dwarphanage" is in need of references.**
This article requires references. Please help by **adding references**!

**The Dwarphanage** is a dwarven orphanage. Dwarphanages can be found in both Irondeep and Frostwind.

## Irondeep

According to Hardwon Surefoot, the dwarven orphans mine in the mountains all day.

**Prior to The Story**

Hardwon was dropped off at the Irondeep dwarphanage by Uncle Red after escaping imminent death by the hands of Galad Rosell. He recalls his time at the dwarphanage as awful, enduring grueling conditions and having been the only human amongst the dwarves. There were advantages to this however, as he grew taller than all of his peers. The downside was the lack of beard growth in the adolescent boy. He remembers being bullied by Rust Bronzebeard and other dwarves when living at the dwarphanage.

## Frostwind

**The Frostwind Chapter**

While The Band of Boobs are in Frostwind they encounter multiple dwarphans, including Joris and his sister. They are successful in bringing money and power to the dwarphans and help Joris become the new leader of the dwarphanage.

When The Boobs visit the dwarphanage, it is ramshackle and populated by freezing, starving dwarphans. Hardwon plays catch'em with various dwarphans, and The Boobs bring life back to the Frostwind dwarphanage.

**The Hellfire Chronicles**

After defeating the Juiblex within Irondeep, Beverly, Erlin, Egwene, Ol' Cobb, Red, and Mavrus were told by the mage Maz Al'thul that there were dwarves trapped within the dwarphenage. Upon arriving at the dwarphenage, Beverly and Erlin tried to enter the structure first to rescue the dwarves inside. Instead, both Beverly and Erlin were teleported away from Irondeep by Maz, while the rest of their friends were struck by a Fireball.
Cold Iron Keep

The Cold Iron Keep is the largest building in Frostwind and where King Cyrus Coldain rules from.

## Description

The keep is first described as tall and cold against the backdrop of the city. It has three very large stories, the first two reminiscent of a Gothic castle made of black stone and iron. Guard towers rise from the castle, filled with busts of old dwarven kings and intricate stained glass. The third floor is almost entirely made of glass, making it appear like a huge lantern, and a glow from a hearth illuminates the floor.

The main hall is spacious, the floor made of marble and stone pillars running all throughout. Between the pillars are stained glassing recreations of the tale of the original dwarves. There is a big center piece behind the throne decicting the scene of each dwarf getting their kingshammer from Moradin. The throne itself is made of iron, but large geodes and crystals sprout from it.

Below the keep are stone hallways and caverns which lead to the sky cells.

## Role in The Story

**The Frostwind Chapter**

While in Frostwind, The Boobs see the cold keep looming over the city of Frostwind. They never go to the castle, but they know that the Coldains are there while they are in the city.

## Non-Canon Appearance

**Nannerfly Effect**

After the attempt on Gemma Bronzebeard's life, Cyrus Coldain calls a investigation at the Cold Iron Keep. The Band of Boobs are brought there for questioning, specifically Hardwon Surefoot. Iron Inquisitor Faedor clears Hardwon as innocent, but he is thrown in prison along with his friends because of his desire to be with Gemma. The Boobs, locked beneath the keep, begin to escape, but are encountered by Cyrus, who sends them on a mission to catch up to Wilhelm Bronzebeard, who is fleeing the city.
Episode 25: Into the Fire (Tales From the Crick)

**Into The Fire** is the twenty-fifth episode in the series and fifth episode of Tales From the Crick.

The Band of Boobs face off against Big Fire Daddy in the final battle of the Elemental Titans! Hardwon crits and splits, Beverly collects yet another father figure, and Moonshine gets hospitably hostile.

## Plot Synopsis

The Band of Boobs complete their quest in the Elemental Chaos, defeating the Titan of Fire and his elemental children. Beverly earns his favor and gains the ability to call upon his power in a time of need. The Boobs break their trance and find themselves back in the Crick, where they hear a commotion at the Speakin' Stump, where a group of Chosen is attempting to convert Crick elves and bring them back to Galaderon. The leader, a priest named Brother Albrecht, uses a scroll that allows him to seemingly cure Cooter of his Crick Rot, impressing the Crick elves. Moonshine gives an impassioned speech urging her people not to abandon the Crick or trust the Chosen, convincing the Cricks to give her one week to cure Crick Rot before making the decision to join the Chosen. The Boobs then had a tense conversation with Brother Albrecht and the Chosen knights and Moonshine reluctantly invites them to stay in her stump for the duration of the week, even offering them breakfast.

The Band of Boobs talk to Mee Maw about the Chosen and formulate a plan to start a whisper campaign to let the Crick elves know about Marabelle and the plan to enter the fog without tipping off the Chosen. It was decided that Moonshine and Mee Maw would head to the Grammaw Tree to inform the elder and sick Cricks, while Beverly would inform the youngins, and Hardwon and Balnor would keep an eye on the Chosen in Moonshine's stump. Mee Maw asked for a word in private with Moonshine and revealed that she was suffering from Crick Rot.

Ember Heaven

**Ember Heaven** is a city, and greater area, of Shadowfell, and serves as the capital of the land.

## Description

The city is lit up by red lights which shine onto the Quiet Sea nearby. Buildings with Gothic architecture are built all along the side of the mountain up to its peak. It is a reflection of Galaderon and so its features and mountaintop location are reflective too. A giant bone bridge leads into the city.

The mountain itself has been turned into a giant war forge, where monsters created tons of weapons in order for their impending invasion. Ghosts and ghouls populate the city, among other monsters, demons, and undead.

## In The Story

The Band of Boobs first see Ember Heaven while crossing the Quiet Sea with Tess and the Bastards of None. They manuever their ship into a secret cove beneath the cliffs of the city, and encounter a faction of Grave Robbers from Gladeholm, including Erdan, who was there as a double agent. After eliminating the Grave Robbers in a fight and getting an explanation out of Erdan, they agree to join him in his attempt to thwart the invasion of Bahumia by Galad Rosell and the monsters of the realm, on behalf of Thiala.

Once inside the castle, posing as Grave Robbers, the Boobs are able to successfully defeat Galad for good, freeing Lydia Stormborn, and ending the attacks besieging the free cities of Bahumia. Lydia names herself Lord of Shadowfell, and after an unsuccessful attempt to woo the Boobs into staying to become her Queensguard, she promises to rule fairly and magnanimously, and the crew departs.

After Tarragon does so with her dragon breath, the stranger reveals herself as Cadron of the Cindersworn, an imperial containment group that uses fire to stop the spread of undead.

Joining Cadron in her war tent, they learn that the empire is quietly backing Wymer's claim to the throne, after the Petty King Thurston Brightleap went rogue and started following Moxxora. Cadron believes that now that Moxxora has played her hand in Pearl Hill, it would be safe for them to burn down Jackalope Keep in Herenford. The Hexbuds express concerns for the innocents behind the castle walls, and Cadron offers to help them evacuate. After some discussion, the group agrees and are teleported near a sewer grate, where Cadron begins crafting another teleportation circle to transport people out.

The Hexbloods sneak around, warning various soldiers, nobles, and laborers, eventually clearing out the first floor of the castle. Curiously, they do not detect any response to the evacuation from the second floor. When they go to investigate, they find a pool of blood on the ground, totally unnoticed by the guards standing watch. When Jabari recognizes the stench of death, he goes to draw his bow, but the guards suddenly leap into action, revealing themselves as rotting zombies. As they pounce, a lumbering monster of a kings guard begins making his way down the hall towards them, wielding a blood-soaked blade.

The Band of Boobs attempts to infiltrate the ruins of Old Cragwater, but finds it full of nasty deep dwarves and gnomes! Beverly herds a gang of Goatmen, Hardwon utilizes the lessons he learned at the Dwarphanage, and Moonshine meets a foe so infuriating that she loses all hospitality.

## Plot Synopsis

The group decides to try to stealthily enter the Cragwater ruins, and immediately runs into a small sentient mushroom, which Hardwon names Fucker. They follower Fucker to his larger mushroom colony. The discover that Fucker's actual name is Schubert, and befriend the colony, including the king of them all, Fungen. Moonshine communes with Fungen, and he tells her to take a bit of him. She does so, and is able to acquire the telepathic Rapport Spores ability. They have a long rest in one big shroom, and wake up early in the morning to begin the journey to break out Beverly's dad.

As they sneak into the ruins of Cragwater, they find the city overrun with duergar. As they stealthily approach the top of the ruins, they get hit by blow darts from some sneaky deep gnomes. After a brief scuffle, they attempt to turn the gnomes against the duergar, by offering them an opportunity to play a prank. The gnomes sneak the group up to a warehouse deeper in the city, and indicate that something good is inside. Hardwon and Moonshine sneak in with one gnome, who promptly betrays the group by attacking a duergar from hiding and yelling that it was Moonshine who had done it.

A fight ensues, in which Hardwon hijacks a dwarven mining car and, thanks to an extremely high intelligence roll, is able to use it proficiently, decapitating a duergar in its window. Moonshine single-mindedly gets revenge on the betraying gnome. Beverly gets robbed by one of the outside gnomes, and rushes in to join the fight, while Ol' Cobb kills every gnome left to get Bev's gold back.

Episode 1: Green Teens Gone (The Moonstone Saga)

**Green Teens Gone (The Moonstone Saga)** is the first episode in the series and first episode in The Moonstone Saga.

Hardwon (Jake), Moonshine (Emily), Paw Paw the Crick Possum (Jake), and Beverly (Caldwell) arrive in the small fishing village of Moonstone and meet Scoutmaster Denny -- a halfling coward with some terrible news. The crew answers the call of adventure but gets tripped up by some pony-tailed barbarian bullies.

## Plot synopsis

The episode opens on Hardwon Surefoot taking his first steps into The Hungry Trout Inn & Tavern, a local hot spot in the village of Moonstone. After drinking in the beautiful sounds of the fiddle, Hardwon takes a seat at the bar and orders two ales from a half-orc woman (named Mishka) tending the bar.

Scoutmaster Denny introduces himself to the muscular and handsome human fighter, though Hardwon is disappointed that Scoutmaster Denny has never heard of him before. Scoutmaster Denny informs Hardwon that he lost the troop of Green Teens he had been charged with watching and that the barbarians he had paid to go find them were bullying him and drinking away all the money he had paid them.

At this point, Beverly Toegold V enters the bar and makes a beeline for his beloved scoutmaster. Beverly reveals to Hardwon that he has traveled from the city of Galaderon for the Green Teen Jamboreen, and orders a Sprite from the bartender (though he is only given a lightly-stirred cup of water). He initially believes that Denny's story is a classic Green Teen goof, but begins to realize that the crisis is, in fact, real and that the Jamboreen is super canceled.

Paw Paw and Moonshine Cybin burst into the tavern and find their way to the bar next to the halflings. Beverly graciously offers Moonshine his canteen of water for her parched possum, and Moonshine orders an ale from Mishka. Denny realizes the opportunity he has found and offers Hardwon and Moonshine 20 gold to escort Beverly back to the bay to find the rest of the teens(which Hardwon accepts; Moonshine instead requests to be paid in mushrooms). Moonshine and Hardwon are inducted as honorary scoutmasters, and the trio prepares to leave the tavern.

However, Beverly is so overcome by the rudeness of the barbarians who took Denny's money and refused to find the teens that he writes them a note, which he drops at their table. Moonshine attempts to abate the anger of the barbarian's by offering them a huff of her bathtub mead, but Hardwon's pride escalates the conflict into a full-on brawl. The trio battles the four barbarians, and ultimately behead all of them before being called back into the tavern by Mishka, who warns them that more will come soon.

**The Galaderon Saga**

While Captain Toegold was in prison, Lieutenant Duxley directed the Green Knights. Despite the solemn tone of the group, and their doubts of his guilt in the murder of Merrick High Hill, Algebux directs them to still attend the execution, out of loyalty to the king and respect to their captain in his final moments.

Eldermourne Episode 3: Broken Heart Banshee

**Broken Heart Banshee** is the third episode in campaign 2.

Our new heroes join a bar brawl and begin to investigate the mysterious spirit that is hunting the Rooks. Fia sees a pool for the first time, Zirk does some crustacean-based alchemy, and Henry reveals an impressing living situation.

## Plot Synopsis

Henry narrowly escapes death at the hands of Fergus Whitlock by once again magically switching places with his shadow. During the ensuing bar brawl, Zirk and Fia notice that the fight is being egged on by the invisible spirit that they had encountered in the meat locker shortly before. The brawl eventually ended and the Third Mates were able to escape when Fia magically compelled the fighters to "chill." Outside, the group got to a safe distance and got to work researching how to rid the town of the vengeful spirit. Based on the circumstances, they deduced that the spirit was most likely a Horror called a Broken Heart Banshee- a ghost that rises ten years after its death and seeks the hearts of its killers, or those similar to its killers.

Henry revealed that he was staying with someone who might know the victim: the Baron Sewastian Fenrose. The crew decide to head to Fenrose Keep to probe him for information and hopefully swim in his pool. With port wine and shrimp scampi flowing, the Baron gave the group a pretty good lead on who the Broken Heart Banshee could be- his deceased fiancée, a young woman named Sadie Bellwater. The Baron’s parents refused to acknowledge their engagement because she was from a poor family, so the two made plans to run off together. However, the Baron was caught by his father before he could get to her at the crossroads, and that night, ten years ago, she was murdered by bandits. After his parents’ death a few years later, Sewastian moved Sadie’s remains to his family crypt in the catacombs beneath Thornkirk. This enraged his deceased father, who rose as a ghost to protect the crypt.

With two rogue spirits to now be placated, the three heroes headed to the catacombs at dawn and began exploring its dark passages. There, they were attacked by skeletons, but managed to lock them behind an iron gate - sealing themselves inside the catacombs, but moving one step closer to the Fenrose family crypt and the vengeful ghosts.

**Killshot** is the eleventh episode in campaign 2.

The Hexbuds attempt to finish the false king, then try to escape with their lives. Tarragon sprouts dragon wings, Jabari stays on target, and Corbeau follows an old friend.

## Plot Synopsis

The Hexbuds finish their grim work at the would-be king's war camp, slaying Wymer with three well-placed arrows from Jabari. They take off, only to be attacked by Sir Reynard Wendell. After a close call with a downed Corbeau, Tarragon manages to bring him back up, and the Hexbuds flee into the woods. Reynard gives chase, and just when things are looking dire, Corbeau catches sight of a winter sprite, something he hasn't seen since their time living with giants during the war.

Before they can follow it, however, the Hexbuds are confronted by the Prophet Gideon. Tarragon uses *Thamaturgy* to throw Gideon from his horse before casting *Sanctuary* on Sir Reynard and sending him off. The Hexbuds then proceed to follow the winter sprite through a natural gate, emerging on the other side in a whole new world: a secret grove.

After a short stand-off with some centaurs, the Hexbuds are brought to their old friend Glada, a wise frost giant elder, who is said to be able to speak to the sprites. She brings the Hexbuds into her cottage for some giant humor and grim news. There, they learn that the sorcerer Moxora is actually a projection of their old mentor, the Mad Mage Meriwyn. Meriwyn has made a deal with the Reaper, and is now combining her genius augmentation with Reaper's divine power.

Glada explains that she is part of a network of the Trickster's followers called The Guardians of the Grove, and that Meriwyn is leading a war against them. The Prophets Gideon and Cain were once part of the Guardians, but were apparently killed and resurrected as minions. These minions have power to grant Meriwyn access to the secret groves, and apparently her true form lies in one, the scorched grove to the north. After processing this information in the warmth of Glada's hot tub, the Hexbuds decide to deal with the Prophet Gideon first, since he is likely still out in Pearl Hill away from the rest of his cohorts.
