Hey everyone! We've got a double-header today, with an episode of Shroud Over Saltmarsh at 2pm for the Pearl Dolphin tier patrons, and then at 7pm we've got the Golden Monkey Talk show. Today we're talking all things Beneath Dark wings. We've only got 3 episodes left, so we're going to walk through the arcs, themes, and characters as we close in on the end. Put your questions below regarding the campaign, themes, and characters!

Are there any lingering mysteries or unanswered questions that the party is dying to know before Beneath Dark Wings comes to an end? Does Mikey have any plans to address those questions? I’m still dying to know about the stranger with the ox and the kegs of alcohol and his relation to the Beastplauge.

What are some of your favorite themes that you got to explore while playing/DMing this campaign?

SilentPilot

How many side quests do you think you accepted and eventually completely forgot about?

Nuclear Bleu

What was your favorite arc and why?

Nuclear Bleu

I know you all have said that you would change a lot of things about your characters, what specific elements of your character would you change?

Arc: Which arc was the most challenging to find a satisfying conclusion for, and why? What would be the narrative choice you would go back and change? Theme: What would you argue are the core "3 theme words" that summarize BDW? Are there any themes that were left behind the DM screen that could be used in the future? Character: With how vital Hyrja is to Caprice's future will her ending be directly affected by his choices? How did playing the BDW cast grow you as a player/DM?

Mikey- how significant was Revali's role for the party meant to be originally? I know you mentioned how you didnt expected him to survive Arc 3 but how much of his story and importance to the party DID you plan? He's personally one of my favorite NPCs because of how he was the perfect NPC guide and mediator for an early party that still hard inner conflicts and issues and I just want to hear you talk about him.

You all mentioned on Saturday that these characters did not go through the LoACCP. As you developed that Process, did you find that these characters were stuck being stangnant/undeveloped, or did you manage to put them through the process somewhat as time went on?

For us Newbies to the series and to the Lore of Avantris as a whole, who are the characters to pay attention to if we want to play connect the dots with the campaigns (for example: Virgil Zurn and his influence on BDW and EOM)

Adron42

These characters are some of your oldest. Do you have any advice for expanding/growing older characters that weren't made "as well" as a now experienced player could now roleplay them?

Emilyscribbles

How difficult was it to retire Hyrja to NPCdom? You make the transition seem so smooth. Did you have a plan of how you’d be able to use her in the long run concerning Caprice and manipulating his action via higher powers?

What surprised you each most about your character, or what NPC interaction surprised you the most for Mike?

Emilyscribbles

Since we all had our faces melted with the reveals in episodes 33-36. Mikey, did you always intend Zurn to end the way he did with the group? Additionally, how the heck did you keep all that under your hat before the big reveals and lore drops?

Kevin Cohen

When starting the campaign, did you understand why it was titles “Beneath Dark Wings”?

Kevin Cohen

Do you personally have a most cinematic moment thinking of your character?
