Rollplay is a series of live Tabletop RPG campaigns live streamed on Twitch and hosted by JP McDaniel.The first series began as a weekly show where popular members of the E-sports community played an online Dungeons & Dragons Campaign streamed live. The Show Within a Show was popular not only for the plot created in universe but because of the antics of the players and characters themselves. After its wild popularity, host JP McDaniel began two new campaigns which are running concurrently with the original, but in different universes.Here's the list of campaigns, both in progress and complete: Rollplay: Solum - the longest running game series. Has three overlapping campaigns. The first campaign (Original) ran for 30 weeks as three "seasons" of 257 videos; the second campaign finally named the setting as Solum and ran for 37 weeks as two "seasons" of 197 videos and the beginning of "season 3" of 9 videos, and the third campaign ran for 10 weeks as the majority of the third "season" of 50 videos. The game ran on a modified version of the 2nd Edition D&D rules up until week 37 of Solum, when it changed over to 5th Edition D&D on week 38. Was officially cancelled on July 10th 2015. Rollplay: Dark Heresy - campaign set in the Warhammer 40k universe, using the official Dark Heresy game system. Cancelled after 7 weeks due to a number of scheduling conflicts, most notably TotalBiscuit's bout with colon cancer. Totalbiscuit died of cancer in 2018. Rollplay: Ebhon/Vigil - campaign DMed by JP. Started out as Ebhon for two "seasons", with week 9 starting as a reboot. Eventually rebooted/given-a-sequel as Vigil, which moved from 2nd Edition D&D to Dungeon World. Cancelled. Rollplay: R&D - the "last" show of Rollplay. Hosts various mini-campaigns, encompassing a number of tabletop game systems. Apocalypse World, Completed. Dungeon World, Completed. Pendragon, Completed. Numenera, Completed. Saga of the Icelanders (Apocalypse World rules), Completed. Rollplay One Shots - a series of one-shot campaigns. Maid RPG, Completed. Dungeon World (Geoff's first campaign as DM), Completed. The Good Life (Apocalypse World rules, campaign based on the graphic novel series Crossed), Completed. D&D 5th Edition (test campaign starring the various Rollplay DMs and GMs), Completed. Death Frost Doom (D&D 5e, converted module from the Lamentations of the Flame Princess tabletop RPG), Completed. The West Marches (D&D 5e, sandbox-style game based on this experiment for a very flexible D&D campaign), Completed. Masks (Teenage Superhero One Shots using the Masks System in the Apocalypse World engine), Completed. Breakers (Break in this World of Dungeons ruleset), Completed. Feast or Famine (Dodger's first campaign as DM, she "guides" a group of adventurers on a hunt for delicious delicacies in unexpected places), Completed. Die-kea (Crendor's first time as DM, guides Dodger, Strippin, Jesse Cox, and itmeJP in a post apocalyptic swedish superstore), Completed. Dogs In The Vineyard (Join Adam Koebel as he guides Matthew Mercer, itmeJP, Jerry Holkins, and Austin Walker through the Kingdom of Life), Completed. The Grim - (Dark Heresy - DM'd by Geoff.) Featuring the return of Totalbiscuit, and three new party members: Adam Koebel, John Harper and Reece Robbins from Frontline Gaming. Completed. Rollplay: Swan Song, Swan Song Stories & Swan Song Live Show - series replacing the cancelled Dark Heresy campaign. Uses the Stars Without Number system, which is akin to Basic D&D. Completed. Rollplay: Mirrorshades - an 80s fiction-inspired campaign, set in the Urban Fantasy Cyberpunk world of Shadowrun. Played with the First Edition Shadowrun rules. Completed. Rollplay: Balance of Power - Two separate but intertwined Star Wars campaigns, with one group of Rebels and one group of Empire-aligned characters (each with a possible traitor). Uses the Fantasy Flight series of Star Wars systems. On hiatus. Rollplay: Court Of Swords - A very difficult D&D campaign that takes place in a setting inspired by East Asia. Uses 5th Dungeons & Dragons System. In Progress. Rollplay: Nebula Jazz - a Sci-Fi campaign in a spacebound setting with musical motifs. Uses the Fate Accelerated rules system. Two Seasons. Completed Rollplay: Blades In The Dark - A Victorian Gothic Horror with Gaslamp Fantasy campaign involving a bunch of scoundrels. Uses Blades In The Dark system. One season. Completed. Rollplay: Far Verona - Campaign using the Stars Without Number system (second edition), Run by Adam Koebel, featuring AnneMunition, ThatBronzeGirl, GassyMexican and Mark Hulmes. Started May 9th, 2018. Two seasons. Was canceled in April 2020 following an ugly in-game incident involving Koebel which has since made him Persona Non Grata among the indie TTRPG community. Rollplay: Oddballs - Campaign using the Tales from the Loop system. Run by Jesse Cox, featuring CinnamonToastKen, Octopimp, Elspeth Eastman and Morgan Webb. Started June 1st, 2018 and is still ongoing.

The Heart
 Rollplay (Podcast) / int_1badfb3a
comment
The Heart: Bregor. Even remarked by Vincent as such when he dies, as Bregor would often be the one guiding the party to a righteous path. Fittingly, Bregor's death quickly accelerated the decline of the party, as Azril lost his will to live (or at least serve his god) and Abigael drank herself to tears and a fling with Horus.

Good Is Not Soft: At his finest, Victarian. While the episode in which he is affected by Zone of Truth might indicate otherwise, by all appearances he is an nice and polite young man in his civilian life, though with the libido associated with one. Interrupt him or pickpocket from him? Spear through the chest, immediately.

Black Comedy: When Viktor dies, he's left in his running position in the staircase, dead in one hit. The crew call back to his death multiple times later on, still in the same position, with no one willing to clean up the body Prosper has a moment when his player rolls badly against someone wearing a deflector shield. The shot ricocheted off the shield, over his shoulder, and into the back of the women they're guarding. What took it from cringe worthy to hilarious was Prosper's immediate, loud insistence that it was the fault of the guy he was shooting at.

Genre Blindness: The whole party, at first. The players have not role played very much before, Gen has never role played before. Becomes very apparent on their first mission where They kill some goblins guarding a cave, then decide to camp for the night less than 200 yards away and without setting a watch. It goes about as well as you'd think. They do get better, though.

 Rollplay (Podcast) / int_25a6c734
comment
Not in This for Your Revolution: Smee is characterized as the most selfish of the party in regards to their quest, combined with a bit of Only in It for the Money. However, he denies being in it solely for the money, and may just be in it for more heists with his friend Largo. Early on in his recruitment interview, Ron firmly establishes that he is not willing to storm castles for the party, let alone fight in an open rebellion against the forces of Voraci. VERY soon afterwards, he does both, albeit in a way that he likely didn't anticipate.

Glass Cannon: Banon, which makes sense given his Squishy Wizard status. In practical terms, Vincent. While he is equipped with Platemail early on (and thus became nearly invulnerable to lesser enemies) and he actually has an average amount of HP for a fighter, his absurd damage output clashes with his propensity for being knocked out in major battles. Might just be because he is the only guaranteed front-line fighter, while Bregor is sometimes off shooting at a range with almost twice Vincent's hitpoints.

comment
Curb-Stomp Battle: The party versus a werewolf. It quickly devolves into a chase through alleys as the party collectively brutalize a seemingly-unkillable beast...until Victarian hammers it to death with silver coins and a hammer.

Do Not Go Gentle
 Rollplay (Podcast) / int_3d897748
comment
Do Not Go Gentle: Attempted to be invoked by the party, as Victarian fought to give Spades a final chance at escaping or fighting off the Voraci forces who would otherwise be happy to simply capture and execute her for her crimes. Averted in the end because Neal pointed out the impossibility of it, leading to a The Needs of the Many scenario instead. Particularly notable since, post-mortem, Gen mentioned that that would have been her ideal death for Spades.

Cold-Blooded Torture: When the incarcerated Jerekis proves uncooperative and tells Jaxx to "do (their) worst," Englebart immediately scurries up and applies his blowtorch utility directly to his amputated arm stump, Phrix helping out by pouring water onto the charred wound. Jaxx then assures the man that the party came up with that on the fly - just imagine what they'd do if they had a night to mull it over. He proves much more cooperative after that.

Characterization Marches On
 Rollplay (Podcast) / int_479f9ad0
comment
Characterization Marches On: In the first episode, Victarian acts like a much harsher, more aggressive reincarnation of Vincent, leading to fan complaints of rehashing the exact same archetype, and the more immediate consequence of JP overreacting about Geoff's vitriolic behavior toward his party members while role-playing his character. By the second episode, the two have made up, while Victarian's personality is more firmly established as a violent but outwardly affable Mister Rogers.

Downer Ending
 Rollplay (Podcast) / int_4e3d253b
comment
Downer Ending: The ultimate fate of the (then-surviving) first season characters is a Total Party Kill bar Abigael, who escapes traumatized from the deaths of all of her friends (particularly since she was an original party member). Vincent dies a lonely and ignoble death away from his father's kingdom and his friends, and is dismissed as another heroic mook beheaded by the regional captain (who also casually executes the wizard he was trying to defend as an example to the townsfolk). Azril and Horus lead a suicidal charge to avenge him, and Horus beheads Vincent's killer before dying of blood loss before Abigael can save him. Even Abigael's fate is left uncertain as of the start of Season 2 (although she is stated to survived the pursuit), which takes place 70 years afterward with no mention of the original protagonists. King Longborn's response to Vincent's letter urging action against Voraci's armies is similarly left hanging in the air.

Suddenly Always Knew That: You didn't know know Bregor had Blind Fighting? Well, You Didn't Ask. In all fairness, it was on his character sheet, it just never came up until it was very, very important. Also doubly humorous because prior to needing the skill, Vincent had offhandedly mentioned wanting to (eventually) train in Blind Fighting, only to find out that Bregor already had it.

Cast from Hit Points
 Rollplay (Podcast) / int_51567188
comment
Cast from Hit Points: Azril's special Cleric ability allows him to sacrifice his own hitpoints to damage an enemy. It's balanced by the fact that hit points spent this way can only be healed naturally, not through magic. Given that it takes 1 day of full rest to restore 1 hit point, this is a fairly serious limitation.

Disc-One Nuke: The Blood draining sword the party finds early on is way overpowered for how low level the group is.

Notably, this is the first instance of a player character properly retiring and Neal emphasizes that Smee could return at any time; his departure was mostly motivated by how a slot in the party was opened for a magic-user, which is limited to one in this campaign due to the oppressive anti-magic stance of the occupying forces.

Despite the best efforts of both the Swan Song and Harridan's Heart crews, the homicidal AI that had been plugged into the battlecruiser Harridan's Heart survives and escapes. Its first actions after its escape is to burn the planet Andoni, killing much of its population.

At first she suspects that she's able to see people with MES, as she can see blue auras around herself and Erik, but Pi's robotic body does not give off one. She realises that it's not MES, but Emotions that she's able to see when she finds that Higgins has a red aura, and Alpharius has a spiky, pale blue and indigo aura. Beyond emotions, she can also see psychic power being used as tendrils extending from the psychic to the target.

Fatal Flaw
 Rollplay (Podcast) / int_aba8065b
comment
Fatal Flaw: In general, the party has a serious lack of subtlety and planning. Instead they usually charge into every situation blind and try to use brute force. Later on, as their enemies get deadlier, the group starts to be a bit more cautious. Greed: Abigael the thief, of course. More of an annoying liability for comedic effect than a major undoing, but mostly due to the way things played out (her eagerness to loot in combat, ahead of party members and hoard wealth go mostly unpunished in the long-term). Lampshaded, however, when the party enter a tomb with D&D-style bright warning labels to not tomb raid: the entire party almost physically restrain her from even thinking of looting. Pride: Vincent's greatest flaw. Vincent just can't let any challenge to him go unanswered. He even picks a fight with a high level enemy captain and his two body guards while in an occupied town without checking how they were armed and forgetting his own armor was off being repaired. Lampshaded by Geoff in Week 39, when he remarks that it is fitting and fair how it was Vincent's habitual pride undid him rather than some random golden weasel.

Epic Fail: As expected of this kind of game. Early on, several party members engage in a shooting contest. When they take their shots, they don't aim and have limited success. Each time, the man running the contest recommends aiming. Only the very last contestant (an NPC) aims... and botches, missing the target by a long shot and nailing a spectator in the chest. Jerekis, a man who the party wanted for questioning, got into a firefight with members of the party. In an effort to make a point blank shot, his gun exploded in his hand on account of the DM botching his roll, knocking him unconscious and ruining his arm so badly that it needed amputation.

The Ace: Tariq begins shaping up to become one a la Bregor past Week 20, coinciding with acquiring a 2-handed sword, Reaper, that allowed two attacks per turn, in addition to normal Fighter bonuses. As a similar parallel of Vincent and Bregor, Tariq acquires full plate mail several weeks before Victarian, despite his ongoing quest for better armor. Outside of combat, he also has the highest "hotness" rating in the party at 17, and in Week 27 he attains knighthood and the social benefits that entails. Discussed late in that week, when the party joke that Tariq's typical routine is admiring his handsomeness, knighthood, and full plate mail.

No Social Skills: While Jhakri doesn't completely lack basic social skills, he is treated as such by his party members for laughs. Notably, however, he lacks the ability to really approach women (especially in bars), cannot think of a smooth way to get out of a drug bust incident, and has no idea what the use of money is until the party gradually explain their greed to him.

True Companions: This is the driving force behind the party. Right or wrong, they have each other. Heart breaking when Tudagub dies saving his friends. Even worse after Bregor's death. The party does not take it well, especially Azril. As the number of original party members dwindle, Vincent and Abigael increasingly see each other as this (as opposed to Abigael being a practical liability early-on). Vincent is still willing to resort to snark to shoot down some of her sillier ideas, but after she proves herself by saving the lives of the entire party by assassinating an entire camp of guards he is willing trust her on some of the most pivotal decisions later on. Likewise, Abigael blatantly trusts Vincent through thick-and-thin and regards him as the absolute leader of the party more than, say, Azril or Horus.

Killed Off for Real: This world does not have easily-accessed resurrection. In fact, it's nigh-impossible bar divine miracle or a (in-game-terms) god-tier priest sacrificing himself. This causes great distress for the party after Tudagub's death, and the others following.

An Arm and a Leg: Alice has to have her arm amputated early in the campaign, much to everyone's shock. JP McDaniel had even considered retiring the character right then and there, but it turned out that it merely transformed her from being wholly overpowered to being a Handicapped Badass.

Did I Just Say That Out Loud?: The players, being relatively new to Roleplaying, took awhile to realize that if they discuss things amongst themselves in public, other people can hear them. This lead to some hilarious situations, such as the party repeatedly referring to Abigael as 'the thief' in public, or even directly to NPCs!

Insistent Terminology: Ever since the original Rollplay series wherein Neal constantly called halberds "hallebreads," it is now canon that these are the proper name of these weapons. Lampshaded in Week 29 when the party jokes that they don't know what a halberd is, but acknowledge a hallebread.

Never Learned to Read: It's eventually revealed that Abigael is illiterate. JP takes delight in pointing this out at every opportunity. Roughly the same time, it is revealed that most people in the world of Solum are illiterate. The fact that 3/4 of the original party members (and all the rest following) were was... highly coincidental. Vincent's literacy even lands him a (very poorly-paying) job as a clerical bookkeeper.

Throw Down the Bomblet: Engelbart has pretty good luck when it comes to throwing grenades. In one encounter, his aim was so perfect that it made Ludicrous Gibs out of three soldiers, one of which was already badly injured. He tends to have good luck with any thrown weapon; he has also been successful at badly burning an enemy with a thrown can of beans that had been cooking on a nearby stove.

The World's Expert (on Getting Killed): Within the first 10 minutes of his introduction, Tariq almost dies to the same sort of mortal wound that laid Alice low. He was introduced as one of the most badass young Templar, carrying a huge two-handed sword and boasting impressive armour and hitpoints, but he was nearly gutted by a common bandit not fifty feet away from where he was recruited. Obviously played for laughs and mockery by the other party members. For the record, Tariq survived thanks to Dana's assistance, though his pride certainly didn't.

Running Gag: A minor one is spawned when Viktor is attempting to perform some kind of medical procedure on Higgs when the latter is unconscious at 0 hp. However, Steven's choice of words is that he's "elbow deep in Higgs," which results in lots of innuendo from the rest of the gang and they jokingly bring it up throughout the rest of the campaign. There's also Piani nagging Higgs about the 40,000 credits she feels he owes her.
