And my favorite Halloween tradition begins once again
This is my new October tradition
Welp I'm listening to this again for the 20th time. Looking starry eyed at Emily until she does part two of it
L and
I don't think I ever laugh as hard as whenever Mavid says literally anything.
Is the soundtrack for Twilight Sanctorum released somewhere?
The vampire usher at about 52:10, the voice Emily does for them sounds exactly like a character I heard in a sketch. I cannot for the life of me remember where I heard this before, maybe it was an SNL character?? Please tell me somebody else finds this voice familiar, this has to be a popular character ive seen before.
Genuinely missing Twilight Sanctorum and yearn as I did for the return of the triplets as I do for the phantasmos and able Miss Mable praise freg
fully convinced this setting has the most potential as a campaign 4. If Em is up for it, would love to follow this tragicomic crew into the biggest case of their lives
Sometimes you just need to relisten to and binge all of Twilight Sanctorum. Thank you NADDPOD, for always making my work day bareable.
Listening to this for the fourth time. We need more Twilight Sanctorum!
I was just thinking the same I think this is my 5th!
On another relisten of Twilight Sanctorum and "71 years, fun" made me laugh out loud in public lmao
Listening to this campaign for the sixth or seventh time. God I love this fussy little family. I hope y’all revisit Twilight Sanctorum someday!
Wow!
That was sooo funny!!! I loved the threats to move back in with his mom and her boyfriend to get what he wants. Jake well done man!!!!
mavid is so freakin funny
this is my millionth time relistening to this campaign and i just realized, it's fucking incredible how emily rarely if ever uses filler words like "um" or "uh" or "like" despite beinf improvised it makes her narration seem so much more story-like which i think is an unsung but important factor to why it's so enjoyable listening to this campaign, in addition to the characters and the plot and worldbuilding i dont think ive ever heard anybody speak so smoothly and consistently while running a campaign. really hope we get to revisit twilight sanctorum!
these are edited
doing a relisten: i am 22 and going grey. i am mavid. he is me.
Just started listening for the first time. I started going bald at 22. He's just like me fr
Where are the short rests for these? I don’t understand
i had to search for the first one but then they all appeared in the collection
"Trudy has left" is a dagger
Okay, the first time I listened I also thought Emily said “say the schpeel(?)” when Murph asked. Now that whole interaction makes sense and is extremely hilarious in hindsight, knowing exactly how Murph felt.
I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THESE CHARACTERS. I’m on my third lesson and I freaking just love all of their dynamics. Maeve makes me laugh out loud so much. 😭
Re listening to this for like the 6th or 7th time. Would love more twilight sanctorum soon whenever Emily has the time to run it! Everyone does so well and has a great time
My 4th time listening to these 3-shots. I really love these characters and I hope you continue their adventures
Keep revisiting this, fave new series naddpod has done
Mavid is fantastic, what a little weasel! I’d love to see him and Yugo meet.
I was confused about this being the same as what's already up on MBoH
How is Emily/Trudy the ULTIMATE wife worm. "I feel alone without your gaze..." ~ Trudy
Oh my god, I LOVE the voice and personality of Mavid. I have literally never laughed so hard while listening to naddpod. I've gotta find a way to put him into my campaign
When Mavid said, “I’m twenty-two! And I’m bald!” I laughed so hard my cortado came out of my nose.
I’m using this four shot to get my boyfriend into NADDPOD, I hope it works because I’ve been listening on and off (mostly on for the past year) since 2019 I think
My Lords. The flashback was a DM work of art! Bravo Emily!! Wonderfuly narrated. Reminded me of the UP montage 💖
"It's called... little death" 👀 and it does what now? 👀👀
We gotta help Caldwell make TWANC catch on.
When I originally listened to this in the mixed bag feed, in the intro I heard Emily say "save the spiel" and was confused when Murph started in on it, but this time around I heard it as "say the spiel" so I'm already getting more out of my second listen through 😂
Murph saying "Penn... No." In that defeated voice lives in my head rent free.
Mavid is definitely based on Dave Rosenberg
Holy god. Mavid is a MENACE and I love him.
Nothing beats Naddpod. Whether it’s main campaigns, one shots, courts or books, y’all are my favorite, most consistent, sweetest and bluest and dankest hole of a show. Can’t wait for Jake to DM. Happy Hoglidays!
I am so grateful yall filled the feed with this content cuz I am recovering from surgery and was out of stuff to keep me distracted haha
So happy this is going main feed! Hoping to see every piece of fan art the Vantasmo family generates
Mavid has a bit of Yugo energy 🤣
I loved this so, so much.
Frank and Mavid are hilarious
You guys. Mavid has ruined me. The voice. The absolute nonsensical candor. I love him.
I love each character's crest in the background artwork! Frank's private eye logo, Penny's mage hand coming out of a PI coat, and Mavis's dagger piercing a peanut. So funny, and still we'll designed!
Merch idea: boiled peanuts called “geez Louise”
Truly Jake’s funniest character yet. Relistening to it and I keep laughing so hard. Great, incredible group dynamic. Hope this can become a group that comes back every year!
Mavid is up there as one of those characters that I just think about unprompted throughout the day lol I love that more people are going to get to meet this insane family
Repo ghouls is such a grizzly sounding concept. I love it!
This is at least my fourth watch of the series and the same parts still make me smile every time. Emily, Murph, Jake, and Caldwell- you all absolutely outdid yourselves with TWANC, I’m genuinely excited that more people are getting to experience this gothic comedic masterpiece. I’d love to see a live show set in this universe! Happy Hoglidays!
What is TWANC? Is that the short hand for Twilight Sanctorum?
More people get to listen to this AND we get a short rest hell yeah
I’m glad everyone’s getting to hear this! I hope they get to hear the Burning Babe campaign too.
Oh my god thank you for this!!
i'm SO EXCITED FOR THIS!!
The peanut in the logo I cannot 🤣
Omg I have tattoos of all the campaign character symbols on my left arm but I forgot to plan for future ones like this so now I need to expand 🥹
Twank, twank, twank, twank, twank!
Listening to this all over again. Couldn’t be more happy.
Merch of this logo?! Stickers? Temporary tattoos?? Something?
This is my favourite thing (this and eldermourne) that y'all have ever done!!
Anyone also think Jake's character sounds a little like Bob Sagat's voice overs in the original America's Funniest Home Videos? Am I alone here?
this is my second listening and I'm enjoying is just as much as I did the first time.
The Return of D-Emily! Fuck yeah! Let's go!
I know you guys have already heard this a million times but I NEED you guys to do more of these and I hope this becomes a long-term thing. Love Emily’s DMing and love the energy of this crew of characters. Seeing that black cover art got me so pumped!
The logo for a four-shot didn’t have to go this hard
Re-listening to this I realized that for a mystery/detective campaign, none of the boys are playing inquisitive rogues. I love the session zero commitment to buffoonery.
This is such a good Christmas gift!!
The new design for this series is so cool!! Love the icons on the black background!! I hope this means there will be future content with the Vantasmos!!
Heading home from college for winter break, perfect for the drive home. What a gift!
Happy Hoglidays to all. What a gift.
Amazing! I loved Hot Boy Summer, I’m all for this!
Ahhh I’m so excited
After finishing episode 50 1hr ago, I'm glad I can continue listening to Naddpod at work
The art looks so sick!!! 😎✨😍💀
I thought this was going to go in the main feed?
Emily is such a great storyteller, this is gonna be awesome. Her one shot she ran a few years ago in the abandoned culty town was so great.
The winter solstice one shot!
Omg if this spins off into a whole mini-campaign like Trinyvale that would be awesome
Wasn't expecting custom TS cover art. Does this mean we could be getting more episodes in the future? 🤔🤔
Is this gonna be the new alt series???? I'm so stoked I thought it was only gonna be like 3 EPs this is sick
Based on Murph's intro, Twanc was 4 sessions total. But I'm sure I'm not the only one who would love to hear Emily run longer campaigns whenever she's up for it.
