Team Idle Fantasy — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 10:44:32 +0000

In this episode, join Paddy and Liam as they chat about how they decide who to play as in RPGs, both on the tabletop and in the virtual realm.

We will be back with the climactic battle against the Cult of Cyric next #FantasyFreakyFriday, 11th April 2025. That's a Wishbone Boys Promise!

Team Idle Fantasy — Fri, 27 Nov 2020 12:51:12 +0000

A storm gathers atop the Helmfall Monastery – and our heroes are caught between a rocky island and a hard place as they start to reveal the rotten core of the brotherhood of Banwyvvern. Bloody John is actually a member of whatever sex cult Glitch was into, and any plans for a big party to celebrate the return of Cassius the Chosen look like they’ll get cancelled. It’s up to Glitch to sneak his way under the stone hallways to find out what might be going on, while Teddy and Wattick decide what to do with a body…

This episode, Glitch remembers beans, Teddy has trouble aiming, and Wattick lets his conscience be his guide.

As night falls at the Helmfall Monastery, the Wishbone Boys are up to no good – but are the monks up to even less good? Our heroes have a plan to find out, largely centring on plans to get a drink with Bloody John, via finding out some more about the Five, finding out what Hess’s deal is, and continuing to keep up the illusion of Glitch’s premature demise.

This episode, Glitch is still pushing up the daisies, Teddy finally gets into his party armour, and Wattick steals a book from an old man.

Something is going on in the Helmfall Monastery, and the Wishbone Boys are on the case. If only they could get a decent plan together in time for the party… Though with some quick thinking and excellent post-pandemic rolling, they may not need one after all. Can they figure out just how weird these Torm-worshippers are? Will Glitch’s necromantic ruse work? And just what is Hess doing here, anyway?

This episode, Glitch puts in a decent showing for an Oscar, Teddy is a good shout for Best Supporting Actor, and Wattick uses proportional violence.

With the brewing tournament handily won, the Wishbone Boys are finally on their way to Helmfall, home of Cassius’s holy order and – before too long – some more silly goings-on. But something seems up with Bloody John Christ, and though the monastery island seems tranquil on the surface, our heroes quickly uncover a few worrying signs that the impending festivities may have a sinister undercurrent…

This episode, Glitch gets handsy with a monument, Teddy is loud and proud, and Wattick meets Deckard Cain, at last.

Team Idle Fantasy — Fri, 28 Feb 2020 13:52:57 +0000

What sort of adventure would be complete without faffing around at a Brewmasters’ Tourney? Not one featuring the Wishbone Boys, that’s for sure.

This episode, Glitch takes time over his coffee, Teddy is halted by a large gull, and Wattick violates the Geneva Convention. Again.
