With Sword and Spell

Diverging from the path we've been on, the players take on the personas of reprehensible reprobates who, desperate to escape their fates, take on a dangerous task for an idiosyncratic employer. A mission to Icewind Dale in late Autumn? What could possibly go wrong? 

The mystery surrounding the missing children heats up as the party discovers a forgotten mansion. But stepping through this door is to step through the boundaries between the Fey and Mortal realm; will the party survive? What dangers, wonders, and strangeness await them on the other side?

Welcome to With Sword and Spell, a new D&D 5e Podcast. Join our Host, Michael Hathorus, and our curious party of adventurers as they investigate mysterious happenings and navigate the wonders of the Feywild.

With all clues pointing toward the mansion, Achna Bel, our party prepares themselves for the unknown before leaving Achna Skor. Join our party in meeting one of the local blacksmith’s and a fairly odd magic shoppe owner who sets a few of our members on edge with his knowledge of things that were and things that are still yet to be.

There's fencing, fighting, chases, near-escapes, mysterious figures in the woods and swamp...so much to cover! Join the players and DM for a behind-the-scenes look at Episode 3 of Touch of the Feywild.

Our party continues their investigation of the missing children in Achna Skor.  It seems that Dark Fey may be to blame, but why?  What do they want with the children? Will our team be fast enough to save the next child from the same fate? What is this mysterious Manor and how is it involved? Who is the mysterious Druid in the swamp?

The DM and some of the players sit down to discuss Episode 2 of Touch of the Feywild; questions from listeners, pivotal moments of the episode, and a little backstory for Razz and Cosmo.

Following a lead about a wanted poster with the adventurer's names and descriptions upon it, they find the prosperous trading town of Achna Skor which is beset by wickedness as children are snatched, sometimes from their very beds. Can the heroes piece together the puzzle and clear their name?

Join the DM and some of the cast of the podcast to discuss characters, plot points, special scenes, major moments from the episode, and the direction the podcast will be taking.

A disparate group of adventurers are united by a call from a mutual friend. Barely knowing each other, but united by the events and aftermath of Mist Island, the group answers the call for help from the Village of Maerwald. Isolated and alone, the village is desperate, looking for any aid it can find. Little do the adventurers know that this marks the point where their lives are changed forever by a Touch of the Feywild.

Debuting on May 4th, the upcoming With Sword and Spell podcast sees an eclectic group of strangers bound by fate to oppose a dark, malevolent Fey power. Can the group forged by circumstance emerge as the heroes the world needs at this pivotal time? Will they be able to wrest their futures from the clawed hands of a puppet master they have not yet met? Or will it all end in death and tragedy?
