A Dungeons and Dragons Live Play: Dungeon Dudes Presents
A DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS LIVE PLAY
Drakkenheim is no more. Struck by a falling star, the city bathed in eldritch fire on that woeful
eve. The tumultuous aftermath brought chaos, families torn asunder, and a kingdom shattered.
Fifteen years later, monsters stalk the haunted streets of Drakkenheim. Caught amidst rival
factions struggling to rule the rubble, three unlikely partners venture forth into a crumbling city
in search of riches, renown, and revenge.
A Dungeons & Dragons actual play campaign presented by the DUNGEON DUDES. Our show
combines the exciting action of tabletop roleplaying games with the suspense of radio drama
and the humor of improvised comedy. We present an adventure our audience can imagine
joining in themselves: one which captures the magical feeling of a classic, home-style
Dungeons & Dragons game. Viewers love watching the ideas and advice discussed in our
YouTube series come to life with an engaging story.
