A New Take on D&D Harpies: Overgrown Airfield | Obojima Podcast Ep.2

[@kevinjust4517]

When I first saw that there is a podcast about obojima I thought „sweet, here comes yet another podcast, but at least it’s about something I supported“ but now two episodes in I already love the format. It’s so cool watching you bouncing off each others ideas and creating these locations. Like some other one wrote already, it also really helps with thinking of how I wanna improve my current campaign. Really love what you are doing here and I’m looking forward to more episodes ❤

When we started it, I was worried that this podcast style might not be interesting enough. So I'm glad to hear you're liking it! -Jeremiah

Love seeing the creative process live. It helps me with coming up for stuff for my own campaign.

[@Obojima]

That's awesome to hear. I feel like I have some of my best ideas when working with others or listening to others be creative, so I'm in the same boat. - Jeremiah

Maybe the harpies and the mechanics are frenemies? Sure the harpies are mocking and messing with the mechanic, but behind his back they are dropping off screws and various parts for him to find and are rooting for the guy. When something appears that would threaten the old man's dream the harpies show up in a tank they somehow got working to blast it away.

[@Obojima]

I like that! It feels almost like an older sibling kind of vibe. -Jeremiah

The Skeletal Shark has been on the cover for a while, but I'd love to hear more about it and whatever this Sky Salamander is!

[@Obojima]

I'm hoping we gan give the sky salamander it's own video! -Jeremiah

Even as a supporter of the campaign i did not think I'd be terribly interested in this but i had a long drive, threw it on, and am so glad that I did! This is so fascinating, i love watching you just talk through everything, and your ability to constantly check, not only if something is cool, but what can the players and DM actually do with it, what does the story and interaction with this part of the world look like, is a great lesson. As an amateur worldbuilder I am going to try to carry over that mindset into my own homebrew. Keep it up!

another cat spirit idea is depending on what life the cat is on (cats having 9 lives and all) can effect the spirit form. whether it is a super curious vs. wise cat or small size vs large

[@seedsmyth]

Just finished this episode. For anyone who has backed Obojima or just loves the inspirations it comes from, it's a delightful time where your mind wanders on a little adventure along with these three. Already so many character ideas and plotlines formulating, just being tossed around.

[@xichigojamx]

I'm so excited for this setting!!!!

[@samuelpage5409]

I'm late to the party with this one, but I wanted to share the specific mental image I had with the Harpies when you said they played cards and blew smoke: The weird little guys finish a game of Harpy Poker and the winner just rolls up a couple of the cards and smokes it like a cigarette

[@Shy--Tsunami]

Hope you guys can put this on YT Music so they can have it in the podcast channel

[@Obojima]

Just added it! Enjoy. -Jeremiah

@@Obojima 🥹 thank you🙏😭

[@krysbingham2501]

Something about this section reminds me of Moomin and how the Snork is always trying to make a cool flying contraption, failing, getting sad about it for a bit and then getting back to it once he gets a tiny inspiration until he does build one. And one episode, he builds a set of wings, Da Vinci style. Very cool. I imagine Moomin is a good inspo along with Zelda and Ghibli

[@Demonskunk]

What if the Harpies don’t hurt the old man because they think it’s funny every time he tries and fails to get a plane off the ground - but they secretly want to see him succeed because they’ve spent so long just dreaming about the fantasies of the brochures and posters around the place?

[@jocelynhealy6998]

My dmpc that’ll show up every now and again as the story demands is so going to be one of these harpies. A mail courier with an awakened hamster companion that helps the pcs just as much as he messes with them.

[@KnNashua]

Be cool yo have two paths, either help old man, or help spirit stop old man and either path can give you similar reward, make spirit as big as old man.

[@nathancarbo]

I have two things. I'm creating my own campaign and I think im going to shove this whole scenic beautiful world in to a manic dream like state they go in to when they fall in to a coma The other thing, how can we buy the STLs for the minis Id love to get started with printing them

[@Obojima]

That is such a cool idea. You gotta come back after you've done it and tell me how it goes! As for the minis, We're still working on the STLs, but the moment they're out we'll make a KS update about them. -Jeremiah
