    Jason Weiser and Carissa Weiser tell stories from myths, legends, and folklore that have shaped cultures throughout history. Some, like the stories of Aladdin, King Arthur, and Hercules are stories you think you know, but with surprising origins. Others are stories you might not have heard, but really should. All the stories are sourced from world folklore, but retold for modern ears. These are stories of wizards, knights, Vikings, dragons, princesses, and kings from the time when the world beyond the map was a dangerous and wonderful place.

    Carla is: a bookdragon; a 50-something with psychology and counseling degrees with post-grad work in grief/loss/trauma, sex crimes, and forensic anthropology; a woman who has lived in three haunted houses; a former freelance journalist and counselor, who is never bored; a disabled introvert who sees connections everywhere--like John Nash, only less math-y; a knitting fidget who loves horror movies with a skewed passion. Like one of her heroes, Harriet the Spy, she wants to learn everything and write in all down in her commonplace book. Join her (and sometimes her friends) in her strange library as she INFJs everything from unused angles. It’s going to get weird in the best way.

    Young heroes bound in love and kinship are forced on a quest to discover the truth behind the magic of dragons and seek those that stole it, before their world itself is destroyed by the growing power of the Dark Army.. Raised by former knights in hiding, they have grown up taking on different skills, each one unique and valuable to each other. Not only use of magic or mastery of a sword they are also tied to a great destiny. A destiny foretold in lost tomes they have yet to discover, but their world is cloaked in a great shadow that is spreading like a sickness which they seek to overcome. Young Cordelia the fire mage, squire-in-training Benedict, sailor Zorin and the deadly swordmaster Sophie fall under the tutelage of Elloveve Hawklight. a secretive yet legendary elven scout archer when their home town of OallEnAkhan is destroyed. Destroyed by the local Justice, and Zorin’s father, Lord Pallus and his Dark Army. An army growing increasingly more powerful with the addition of a powerful dark cleric of an evil queen of death and her legions of dragons. Finding themselves a decade older yet escaping the ashes of yet another lost home they set out to find passage across the great sea to the Ivory Library. Seeking knowledge within its infinite halls guarded by the ancient order of Stone Monks Cordelia finds the answer. They must find the dragons of virtue and seek their help to turn the tide. All knowledge has its price though, and Cordelia must pay for it by recording her own story, and reliving the worst night of her life all over again. This is what takes place in just the first season of this clean family-friendly, fantasy epic. Originally created simply to record the events of a collaborative roleplaying game it has now grown to a production including over 80 voice actors, original scoring and sound design by the game master himself, and resulting in hours of quality entertainment. Many of the echoes of life’s struggles came out organically at the table between the players as friends and were captured in the story. Struggles that come with lessons, and overall those lessons are to be a better person, both to those around them as well as themselves. You can also find our transcripts at Codex.DiceTowerTheatre.com to follow along with the script and story.
