I am launching a new channel for all of our Long Form content, with no limits on time and creativity. All content on THIS main channal will be staying, this is just for new things that won't compete with the Short Form Algorithm. Sub here ‪@VicariousVenturesUnlimited‬
Details are here on our Patreon (link below) for the cool new content to expect and why I made this decision.

PSA: Dragon Heist Ep 14 is still premiering tonight, but it might be a 20-30 min delay from the 11:00 PM EST premiere time. As a smaller channel, YouTube is likely throttling my upload speed since a 2 hour video shouldn't take almost 5 hours to upload, but that's all the more reason to tune in and leave a comment or a Like so I can grow the channel and move up the totem pole.
(Like a Totem Barbarian, I would like to rage :P)

Proud to announce the launch of our Patreon! All my Dragon Heist DM notes are FREE to download. You can all view our Player Character sheets (currently they're Lv 2 but will also be updated with each level up).
Become a FREE member today, and for those of you who want to support us financially, there's currently a $2 tier for those who want to show support and be credited on our YT videos.

I'm going to be releasing several uncut raw videos of me explaining our homebrew mechanics as well as some behind the scenes Director's Commentary from our early episodes, which will also be available on the paid tier.
I plan to keep adding more FREE content to the free membership tier for fans of our show, as well as the occasional paid tier bonus content in the form of videos, stat blocks, and live chatting with other DMs, and much more in the future.

As our channel grows and the content library of the Patreon grows, I may add an additional premium tier but for now I want to provide as much FREE content as I can for free members, so join today and show some Initiative! ;)

Hey ViVenturers! Our normal Friday video might be delayed till tomorrow as I had to do make some extra cool little cutscenes to spice up our latest episode #7 - The Skewered Dragon (no Dragons were harmed, it's a bar name, haha).
Also, if I'm lucky, there will be a BONUS homebrew video released next week, too, alongside our Friday vid, so stay tuned! 🤓

Tomorrow is a double feature! Ep 5 releases here on YT at noon & at 8 PM we'll be streaming Ep 25 (most recent one in a Haunted Trollskull Manor 👻) on Twitch. Twitch.tv/vicariousventures > Stop by and say hi or ask me questions!

P.S. Hopefully by Monday the Homebrew TMNT NPC video will also be up 🤙

Who can guess what our next homebrew video will be on? Hint: These weapons are for more than size comparison. Comment below and I'll give you a shoutout in the video! 😉
P.S. They say size isn't everything, but my new green screen is extra wide which unlocks all sorts of new activities ✨️.

Is that a freaky fish guy Monk?! Or just a Dragonborn? I've been waiting with bated breath, let's hope it's not baited 🪤 breath! 🎣 Give us something we can use for our #KrakenWeek builds! (That doesn't throw a Wet Blanket on our hype) #StayWetMyFriends #SecurityBlankets

Hey ViVenturers! I've been loving all the #KrakenWeek content. When I wasn't distracted by making a random Kraken week music video, I've been prepping for some water themed content. Look for videos this week on how we completely overhauled the Locathah into a fun fan favorite.
Also on the menu under "market price, based on David's editing sanity" are TMNT shadow monk tortle NPCs you can add to your campaign, and next week our take on Underwater combat, as well as my personal favorite DMsGuild and Kickstarter water-themed content that I'd recommend - including the new adventurer brought to us by Ginny Di and Pointy Hat! It's a great time to be a TTRPG player! Best week ever ^_^

Roll for Initiative, we can do community posts now! Youtube recommends I share a "Behind the Scenes", so here's the "behind" view of the "Scene" we did in episode 1 in the Yawning Portal Inn. See what I did there? ;)
(Credit to Wrenick from TalesTavern.com who made this 3D model of the infamous Yawning Portal, it really helped me visualize the place early on in my early DM planning for the YP. So much verticality in the Yawning Portal with its 3 levels. It was a shame Durnan never got to use his boots of Striding and Springing to leap up into those upper decks.)

Of course our model would have to have a window blown out of it in the upper floor where Tzar smacked the bajeezus out of a Stirge with a vicious swing of his shovel. First Home Run of the season, haha.
