JourneyQuest Season 3 Episodes Being Released On YouTube

I happen to be a big fan of fantasy and used to play Dungeons & Dragons when I was younger. I still enjoy gamer humor from things like the Knights Of The Dinner Table comic and The Gamers movies. The Gamers movies were done by the Dead Gentlemen, and they ended up joining forces with Zombie Orpheus Entertainmart.

This led to a rather enjoyable web series a few years ago called Journey Quest. Journey Quest is the series that introduced me to the concept of independent entertainment as I discovered enjoyable web series such as The Guild, Standard Action, Space Janitors, Voyage Trekkers and the fan created Star Trek Continues.

Journey Quest follows the progress of a party on a quest to find the all powerful Sword Of Fighting. We have an inept wizard name to Perf. There is the elven ranger with whom Perf is smitten named Nara. There is the priest named Carrow, whom Perf accidentally turned into a living undead creature after Carrow is shot with a few arrows by a party of orcs. And finally, there's the overzealous paladin named Glorion. Maybe you'd have to be a gamer in a Dungeons & Dragons session back in the 1980's to really understand the humor of Glorion. One of my favorite Glorion quotes from the first season is, "Killing equals honor." That's followed closely by, "l was too brave to spare the elderly."

We are introduced to several interesting characters along the way, including the cute, pixie like bard named Wren. Wren is sent to follow the party without being observed so that she may write an epic about their adventure. Of course, late in the second season, they send the famed bard Silver Tom to replace her. We also see the three surviving orcs who managed to not be killed by Glorion. Their leader is Rilk, who is smitten with Wren. I admit I am a fan of the Rilk-Wren story.

It is during the first season when, in a rather comical moment, Perf ends up getting the Sword Of Fighting. Of course, he is the last member of the party who should be wielding it. He doesn't want it, but now he can't get rid of it. To make matters worse, the sword is intelligent and doesn't like Perf. It makes for some funny moments, and it also makes Perf the target of Glorion, who believes the sword is rightfully his.

Glorion gets separated from the party, and when we see scenes of him, he's leaving a trail of destruction in his path. We don't get to see Glorion and the orcs until the fourth episode of our current season.With all of the characters having been seen, Season 3 is getting more interesting. We see Perf getting drunk at a tavern, and he ultimately doesn't resist the advances of the dwarven woman who owns the tavern. Unfortunately, Glorion is about to make his way to the tavern.Wren is there, and the orcs have also made their way there.

There's enough gaming references to make the gaming geek happy, but you don't necessarily have to be a gamer to get all of the humor of the show. It's funny in its own right. You care about the characters.I'm not sure where the show is going next. I am sure that I am enjoying their journey, and I hope their quest succeeds in the end.

Since the show began, Zombie Orpheus has grown to include several different web series.
