REALM: A New D&D Actual Play

Welcome to the REALM. Episode 1 of Season Zero coming to our youtube this Saturday, December 20th!

Unfortunately, so far no one’s taking him seriously.

Stay tuned this weekend for a SNEAK PEEK of the full episodes launching on 12/20!

Absolutely insane and metal character illustration by the AMAZING @lisajong.bsky.social - let us hear it in the comments how amazing she is!

Veyl despises the lying Citadel 🏰 and its corrupt enforcers, the “Shiners” 👁️— police who abuse the people of the Chrome.

He has begun crafting a masked persona known as The Honey Badger 🦡🔥, hoping to spark revolution ✊ and seed fear in the hearts of those in power…

Finally, the last member of the Soul Searchers: Veyl Suilven — a Hexblade Warlock ✨ — played by @jonmatteson.bsky.social

Veyl is a disgraced member of the same tribe as his brother, Cairn. He forged a strange pact with a jagged, vicious spear during the accident that cost Cairn his arm.

Join us in celebrating the first episode of the pilot season of Realm on December 20th and help us open the portal to REALM!

Cairn is the tallest of the group, over seven feet, and wears the moon oak armor, a sacred relic from his village. Cairn is missing an arm from a tragic experience that occurred with Veyl in his childhood. However when he transforms into his wild shape forms, he has all four limbs.

And now - the second to last member of the Soul Searchers… the fearless, the protective and the kind-hearted Cairn Suilven played by the fearless, protective and kind-hearted Nick Williams 🐻🐊🦁🕷️🐺

Cairn looks after the people he cares about, his brother, and the villagers of the Moon Oak Grove.

And a massive shoutout to the incredible Lisa Jong for this stunning character art. She is so excellent at collaborating!

We had such a blast getting to know and understand Jethro in these first episodes. It’s so easy to connect with him and his plight—and you’re going to fall in love with him.

Mark your calendars - 12/20 is the release of our first episode!

Joey Richter as his new DND character, Jethro Skull. Jethro is prying open some bars with Mage Hand.

The hottest Orc in all the Realm, Joey Richter brings JETHRO SKULL to life!

An Arcane Trickster Rogue with charm to spare, Jethro is neck-deep in debt and bound to the Silver Citadel—doing whatever it takes to square things with the Overseer… and a few less reputable figures.

@lisajong cdid a phenomenal job helping design and bring James’ character to life! Thank you for all of the love and excitement you have shown these characters, and get ready for the first episode dropping on 12/20!

I am very grateful we have George crafting this story, with this phenomenal cast, and working with the incredibly hard-working Dynasty Typewriter crew - George Primavera always crafts a story that you crave and makes an unbreakable bond between each member of the cast.

#realmdnd

Some of our cast had never played Dungeons and Dragons before, and very quickly, George pulled them in with his character driven storytelling and incredible improvisation. He crafted cinematic introductions to each character that made each story feel important and alive.

George works incredibly hard on researching and crafting a story and building a world. He seamlessly moves in and out of different characters, dialects and sound effects, and escalates the fun around the table.

Now, without further ado, let me introduce you to my brilliant friend and gamemaster of REALM - George Primavera

If you know George’s work, or if you’ve ever seen him onstage, or heard him in a podcast, ❤️please back me up here❤️

Cairn is a breath of fresh air and kindness in the Realm and Veyl’s younger brother. They both come from the same place, but have had to lead very different lives. What are your predictions about Nick’s character?

This handsome, tall drink of water (his character is over 7 feet but Nick is also like 6’3) is Cairn Suilven, played by Nick Williams!

Nick immediately had incredible chemistry with the rest of the cast, and you may know Nick from Hero Club, The Re-Slayer’s Take at Critical Role and many more!

This brilliant and curious member of the Soul Searchers is none other than Aurion, played by @jwtolb.bsky.social

Aurion is a master of creativity and invention, and his intelligence will save this party and bring answers to The Ream’s myriad of questions!

Next up to the Soul Searchers it’s

Joey Richter as Jethro Skull! 💀

Jethro has a dark past and has certain memories missing…but will not stop until he finds answers…

More information will be revealed soon about Jethro as we release character art!

#realmdnd

Next up - the third member of the Soul Searchers… Veyl Suilvein…played by @jonmatteson.bsky.social

Or…is it THE HONEY BADGER!?!?

Who knows. The Honey Badger is a mystery. What does the Honey Badger fight for?

Anyways he’s workshopping the name and the voice…and the outfit.

Next up in the Soul Searchers… it’s @slowpez8 as CHEHLSEE!!!

Chehlsee… is the sweetest most magical character you can imagine. It’s difficult to describe him without giving anything away but once you meet him you’ll FALL IN LOVE just like we all did.

As Realm gets closer to launch date! We are announcing the cast!

First up to the table and first of the Soul Searchers is Mariah Rose Faith Casillas as Shira Masterling!
