Hey all! Zachary Frederickson here, your friendly neighborhood GM. You might be wondering why there’s no episode in the feed today, and it falls to me as the GM and de facto voice of Roll Dice and Cry to pass on the news that unfortunately, the podcast is no longer in production. This year was really hard for us to get everybody together; there’s been a couple month-long gaps between recording sessions, and lots of new opportunities opening up for our castmates means that we collectively d...

Huge thanks to everybody who sent in questions! This is the last thing we've recorded for season 1, and we're so glad to have gotten the responses that we got! Heads up, there was a little bit of audio corruption in the recording process; I tried to mitigate it as much as possible but it's definitely still present, so be prepared for that. We'll be sure to watch out for it in season 2 and make sure it doesn't happen again. Speaking of season 2, we're still not 100% sure when that's going to...

On The Shoulders of Giants 43: You Don't Have To Be Alone

December 12, 2018 16:30 - 1 hour - 78.4 MB

Amatyne the Sunturion walks her patrol across the sky, tied sandals brushing silently against starry half-roads. Her brilliant spear hangs heavy in her hand, and she looks dearly forward to rest. In the world below, the New Titans fight desperately against the forces of Anguish, the forces that drove her to take up this patrol in the first place, and Amatyne aches that she cannot be there to more directly assist her bygone charges. Amatyne looks down at the world below, keeping pace, watchi...

On The Shoulders Of Giants 42: The Battle Of Castle Silverhome, Part Two

December 05, 2018 16:30 - 1 hour - 79.3 MB

Solomon Steps-In-Silence dances through the halls of Castle Silverhome, blades flashing. It isn't the attack he'd expected--honestly, he had flagged Dauntless Leroux as the one to try something stupid--but still, he feels a bit of vindication in calling the fact that something was going to set this party awry. Now, he gets to do what he did best. A pack of these strange, tar-filled crabs scrabble at the door to a broom closet; Solomon hears scared whimpering within. With a smirk and a whist...

November 28, 2018 16:30 - 1 hour - 68.2 MB

The village of Low Tide is abuzz. Kobolds jump from boat to boat, sharing the news even as it becomes more and more evident to every citizen: There is something happening in the chapel.  The mighty riverboat that holds Low Tide's congregation each worship is rocking as if in a wild storm on the high sea, and it takes the combined might of the strongest of Low Tide's citizens to lash it to the nearby trees and quell its wild motion enough to board it. There, in the chaos of strewn pews and ...

On The Shoulders Of Giants 40: The Bad Decision That I Have Made

November 21, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 63.5 MB

Olivier von Argent crossed her arms and frowned, looking down at the thing that had once been her, sprawled among broken jars and scattered sundries. "Oh, this won't do at all," she said. "There's still so much left to do." "THERE IS ALWAYS MORE TO DO," said a voice from the shadows beside her. "SOMEONE ELSE WILL DO IT NOW." Olivier turned to the figure beside her and sighed. Already the tension of the day was leaving her, a spring uncoiling after a lifetime of tautness. But still: "What...

On The Shoulders Of Giants 39: The Jig Is Most Certainly Up

November 14, 2018 16:30 - 57 minutes - 52.3 MB

Solomon Steps-in-silence rakes his eyes over the gala from where he stands, arms crossed and leaning against one of the buffet tables. He twitches his hand slightly, feels the reassuring weight of the knives hidden in his sleeves, and sighs.  Florian had put on a brave face that afternoon, but she knows as well as he that an attack like that isn't the end of what the Anguished had in store for them. He's been in enough silent backroom wars to recognize it for what it was.  It wasn't a coup...

On The Shoulders Of Giants 38: We're All Heroes Here

November 07, 2018 16:30 - 1 hour - 59.2 MB

Anthony Argent sits haphazardly on a chaise lounge, its feet scuffed and slightly crooked from where he painstaking dragged it down into the caverns beneath the castle. Down here, he has not heard the impact that rocked the upper levels mere minutes ago. Here, in his secret chamber of reflection, the only sound is the music he makes.  He ceases playing, for a moment, to touch the scars on the side of his head. All these years later and he still winces as he runs his fingers across them. He ...

On The Shoulders Of Giants 37: Don't Worry, Heroes, We Got This!

October 31, 2018 16:30 - 1 hour - 56.4 MB

Kevin Ramone paces in his observatory, flitting between the notes spread out across his desk and the array of telescopes that cluster their way across his balcony window, each one fixed ever northward. The darkening of the moon's bottom edge over the past months as if some shadow were eating away at it was troubling enough, but now these... anomalies that had appeared in the last day, getting larger by the hour... he isn't ashamed to admit that they terrify him. Kevin drags both hands throug...

On The Shoulders Of Giants 36: You Have No Idea What's Impossible

October 24, 2018 16:27 - 1 hour - 80.2 MB

The sun rises over the glittering peaks of the Silverback Mountains, painting the world in a dazzling coruscation. Florian Von Argent stands in her chambers at the apex of Castle Silverhome, watching the early morning shadows stretch deep and dark across the open courtyard. Servants dash across the tiled expanse, preparing the trail gear for the day's events. Brandt the Enduring waits outside her door, awaiting his lifelong comrade's arrival and their subsequent return to the land of mortals...

Additional facts, theories, and anecdotes about Dauntless Leroux, from the notes of Etcetera Et Cetera: -Dauntless Leroux maintains his champion position within the Galyrian Naval Boxing Commission; to date, no challenger has ever been able to defeat him, even this far into his admiralty. -He once fought a megalodon, naked, armed only with a yard of rope, and won. -His ships never fall to bad weather, because bad weather is afraid of Dauntless Leroux. -Dauntless Leroux once shouted a k...

The eyes of Amatyne the Sunturion gaze out, warm and still, from the facade carved into the highest wall of the Silverhome courtyard. The Solar Guardian, She Whose Patrol Marks Our Days has not been seen in flesh amongst the people of the Endless Sea since the end of the age of Titans, but the workers of Castle Silverhome appreciate her bright and noble eyes all the same, so similar to the eyes of their beloved Lady.

On The Shoulders Of Giants 30: Before We Get Into Any Perilous Situations

September 12, 2018 16:30 - 1 hour - 67.7 MB

The smell of baking bread and the song of striking hammers waft through the city of Schoeneberg in equal measure. One more place, just as special and normal as anywhere else, one more stop on the Titans' ongoing odyssey to find truth and knowledge. Who is the mysterious Floriane von Argent, matriarch of the Argent Dynasty, and why does she care so much to have the Titans attend her gala? How much more does Nemo know than he lets on, even now so far into this journey? With a castle full of st...

September 05, 2018 18:01 - 1 hour - 62 MB

After a strenuous month of making deals, charting courses, and butting heads, the Titans of the Bastion have definitely earned a nice reprieve from politics and stately manners. What luck, then, that a lovely party looms over the horizon! Fancy clothes, good food, and... politics and stately manners. Well, you don't always get what you want, but as the Titans will surely find out: sometimes, you get what you need. This week on Roll Dice and Cry: What kind of God do you think Tzela was? Cas...

On The Shoulders Of Giants 27: We Got Rats, And Also Elves

August 22, 2018 16:30 - 1 hour - 86 MB

The people of the Bastion have, by and large, chosen it as a residence out of necessity; either by duty, circumstance, or destiny, those who live there are bound to this strange and ancient place. A house is not necessarily a home, however, and a place as old as the Bastion has more than a few mysteries yet left to uncover. The question hangs heavy on everyone's mind as the gleaming white catamarans of an elven expedition make their way to the Bastion's dock: is this place safe for us? This...

After fraught adventures and terrible tidings, the Titans of the Bastion wish to simply return to their homestead to rest and reflect on the things they have learned.

On the Shoulders of Giants 24: The End of One Story

July 25, 2018 16:30 - 2 hours - 135 MB

Relics of the past clash beneath a starlit sky! Snow by the ton is churned underfoot and trees are torn asunder as weapons of a war long past and not yet done wage a war of their own, divided by lines of conviction, of fate, of faith. Lines are drawn between Titans, and the appearance of a divine host dredges up far more questions than answers. This is why we're here. This is what we are called to do.

Dark, sullen clouds obscure the stars as Ford, Radiant, and Adeline embark on a last-ditch effort to discover the secrets of the nearby lake and the ruins beside. Unfortunately, things aren't quite as cut and dry as they might imagine, and nothing could have prepared them for the true secrets lurking in this forest's dark branches...

Belvedere University stands as a testament to the academic pedigree of Galyria's best and brightest.

While the name “Tiuku” might elicit little more than a shrug and an upturned nose from most of The Archipelago’s elite, they’ve certainly come to know and fear her alter ego: the famous Bell Thief. Tiuku has been responsible for countless high-profile burglaries from Gourzon to South Pillars, and now she has her eye set on the magnificent splendor of Gregarious Pirrenoue, Culture Admiral of the Prosperous Nation of Galyria. But while she may be used to armed guards, moonlit vistas and clande...

Having successfully gained entry into the unfamiliar territories of Zolyat, our heroes decide the best thing to do is get some food into their new guide and draw as much information out of him as they can before moving on. Between history lessons, religious stories, and a whole lot of fish, the shape of Zolyat begins to take form in our heroes' minds.

April 04, 2018 15:30 - 1 hour - 65.9 MB
