We have some critically stinky news!

We are so excited to partner with the legendary founders and creators of Tales From The Stinky Dragon to add this hilarious, all ages, podcast onto Beacon! This amazing, former Rooster Teeth crew is already a thriving part of our RPG community and we are truly thrilled to host the entire Tales From The Stinky Dragon series on our platform.

And to kick this partnership off with a bang, they are premiering Campaign 3: Kanon TODAY on Beacon and the Tales From The Stinky Dragon Patreon!

But don’t just take our word for it! A certain barbarian is here to tell you himself…

We are over the moon to be working with such a talented team! Read on to learn more about the stinky details of this collaboration!

What Is Tales From The Stinky Dragon and What Is the Third Campaign About?

Tales from the Stinky Dragon is an actual-play comedy podcast that features four foolish friends and their (very patient) game master. In this auditory adventure, you’ll experience a fully-voiced cast of characters, immersive sound design, a catchy soundtrack, and gripping stories of exotic lands and strange creatures.

This all ages, award-winning series is fun, easy, and the perfect experience for both seasoned RPG players and those just getting into the genre. The newest installment, Campaign 3: Kanon focuses on a team of trained soldiers caught in the middle of a war between distant deities and under-dwelling devils. But as they turn the tide of this celestial crusade, a voice beckons them from the beyond—destiny or doom?
