Episode 1: I'm New In Town

In the first episode of the Death Saving Bros., "I'm New In Town", Paul Camper tries to lead the party on an adventure and, well. Stuff happens.

Brixeus and Ambienitus Hammerbottom, two half-orc brothers, arrives to the town of Southsalt, where the former wishes to find the person he needs to build a gym. With hopes of making their locations, Brixeus believes he can help people learn to defend themselves from local raiders and demons. As they continue into Southsalt, Ambienitus spots a half-elf bard playing music on the side of a local tavern and joins him with his own musical instrument, the war drums. This may be the only time Ambienitus uses said war drums.

With Brixeus circus barking a crowd together, he tries to get a group interested in the musical duo's "music with sickness" to start his pitch. However, when he picks an elven ranger from the crowd to ask how his brother's music is, the elf claims that elven music (and anything elven in general) is much more better, and verbally trashes the performance. Brixeus, trigger happy to protect his brother's honor, asks if this elf, revealed to be Revan Dawntreader, thinks he can beat him in a fight, to which Revan replies "elves can beat orcs anyday" and draws his shortswords. Dungeon Master Paul asks if they're really gonna roll for initiative within ten minutes of the show's creation, and the two half-orcs and elf roll down to fight. The bard leans back and watches alongside the terrified crowd.

The fight lasts two turns as the Hammerbottoms beat the living daylights out of Revan, who begins to bleed out in the streets. After chastising his older brother for engaging a fight he would have preferred to do alone, Ambienitus idly chats with the bard, revealed to be Dosh Johnson, while Brixeus tries to tame the fears of the group into believing this was a staged performance for his new and upcoming gym. As Revan continues to remain critically unconscious on the streets, Dosh helps this theory by casting Cure Wounds on Revan, who promptly uprights himself and reveals his name, suggesting a rematch later.

As the hype for the Hammerbottom gym performance continues, a suspicious man in professional clothing approaches Dosh, saying that a person named Roscoe wishes to speak further on info Dosh had given him. Dosh apprehensively follows him down a dead end alley, with Revan in tow. As the Hammerbottom brothers take notice and follow along, Dosh is ambushed by a group of goons who seem to want to give him cement shoes. An alleyway brawl ensues between the group and the goons. Eventually the goons are defeated and one of them tries to surrender, which causes the group to piledrive him to unconsciousness.

Revan hogties the unconscious goon and begins to loot the corpses, finding loose change and bronze knuckles, as well as spotting a tattoo of a Crow's Head on their right shoulders. After waking up the unconscious goon, he tells the party (under the impression this would save his life per Dosh) that he's a part of the Crow's Heads and that Roscoe, their leader, was looking for Dosh. He further explains that the Crow's Heads is in charge of a gambling den over in Nasparah. Dosh shivs and kills the man regardless and strolls off, realizing they did this in plain view of a main street. Debating to crush the man's head, the group decides instead to head to Nasparah to go meet Roscoe themselves.
