Untamed Dice

Untamed Dice

Untamed Dice is an actual play podcast featuring our Savage Worlds campaign, Brave New Worlds. Join us as our players plumb the depths of the multiverse seeking to destroy or contain creatures and artifacts from beyond time and space. Or at least go insane trying. We also play a variety of other table top RPGs like Kobolds Ate My Baby and Gamma World to try out new stuff, get a one-shot in, or simply take a break with a short story in another setting. Some of the language is not appropriate for children and music attributions can be found in track descriptions. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this we chat about two classic low level fantasy monsters and the most recent versions. We also discuss why we tend to forget about them when we run games and some of the other creatures we like to explore. Then we throw you and ourselves some ideas for reclaiming the two with new spins on how they appear in game.

Here we are in the Rant where you voted for our little excuse to talk about Wonderland. We discuss the creatures of the title and some of the interesting things that are a part of Winderland in general. We talk versions of Wonderland and how well it works as an example of taking the known and making it different and your own. Of course we go off into Oz and more, but such is the nature of the Rants. Enjoy!

In this episode of the Untamed Rant we talk about two subjects. First we cover horror and some of the ways you can boost the horror of your games. While cliches can hurt the game at times, horror might be one place to use them in force, but how? We also discuss half-breed races. From half-orcs and genasi to teiflings and half-elves we talk about the strengths and weaknesses of these options at the table. There is dissapointment and...
