Nerd Poker

The Fog Campaign - Episode 25 We've had a grand ol' time talking to a creepy fish man about the worms in his pocket, then let's-a-go paddle out to the terrifying fissure in the bay in a creaky ol' boat!

The Fog Campaign - Episode 24 06/17/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 24 Well, now that the little nightmare worm is in a jar, it's time we got some rest.

The Fog Campaign - Episode 22 As the crew enters into the deceased gnome tinkerer's workshop, it appears ol' Nimblenubbin had some dark secrets to hide.

The Fog Campaign - Episode 21 05/27/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 21 Our crew is meeting up with Maude Nimblenubbin to try to make peace. Which will be difficult given that we killed her husband, or as one of us asks- "We didn't do anything to her husband, did we?" Perhaps this will also provide some kind of lead towards... "The Priestess." For 3 bonus episodes a month and more, subscribe to our Patreon at patreon.com/nerdpoker .

The Fog Campaign - Episode 19 05/14/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 19 Our heist crew has done it, and escaped the abandoned temple with major loot.

The Fog Campaign - Episode 18 05/06/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 18 It seems like a pretty standard treasure room with a gigantic heretic god's statue staring dead-eyed at everyone.

The Fog Campaign - Episode 16 04/22/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 16 We delve into the ancient sahuagin where things start off very Giger-y and fillopian-y.

The Fog Campaign - Episode 15 04/15/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 15 There's a bit of unpleasantness with this bounty hunter to deal with, hopefully everything is chill now that we spared his life. The whole ruining of his reputation is probably no big deal right? Then its off to investigate a way to our next vault heist, and to suffer a deeply unsettling, or depending on your feelings perhaps adorable, cascade of Kua-toa NPC voices.

The Fog Campaign - Episode 13 04/01/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 13 The antics return to Brian's dining room, where the drow bounty hunter is now the hunted. Will he escape through the fog or be brought into brutal submission and be interrogated? We all know how cool drow are, so he's probably just a chill dude who will get away.

The Fog Campaign - Episode 12 03/25/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 12 It's time to strut out of the thieves guild and take a breather at the inn. Yeah yeah yeah we might have a target on our backs because we blew up the giant house of Dellsmouth's crankiest creep, but it's time to eat omlettes and probably maybe hopefully not get jumped!

The Fog Campaign - Episode 11 03/18/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 11 Wooo we have a gnome mech and blew up a mansion! Time to sell some loot and celebrate.

The Fog Campaign - Episode 10 03/04/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 10 Well, now that we are straight up annihilating the mansion, tactics shall change. It is time to drop the facade of robbery and pretend we are heroes!

The Fog Campaign - Episode 9 02/25/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 9 Now that the two magic swords are secure, it's time to bust out of this old drow's mansion with the spoils. Bust out through- well let's see- the back door guarded by cursed statues, the windows protected by death wards, the basement we flooded with the entire ocean- or hey what could POSSIBLY be the downside of just marching back out the front door?

The Fog Campaign - Episode 8 02/18/2025

The Fog Campaign - Episode 8 It's time to dust our hands off and go all in on looting this wine cellar! A big old treasure chest is only a door away! But uh, what's all this with the kobolds? One of them blew up trying to break in or something? Maybe we meditate on that for a moment... or maybe it would be chill to just charging ahead without worrying about it.
