[Bonus] Kingdom Dad Monster - Ep. 5 - The Butcher's Bill

There is no time to hunt this year, as the fearsome Butcher approaches the lantern light of Nadpod.  Join the Nadite people as they face their first Nemesis battle.

5 Survivors will face the Butcher in order to protect all that they’ve built. And look at it! Look at how big our settlement has gotten! So many fancy new buildings and innovations. Nad Pod is getting too big to fail. Or so we hope.


Also, as always, this map is being illustrated by the ever talented, Sage.

---

THE NEMESIS

A Nemesis is a special, pre-scripted fight that progresses the overall story of Kingdom Death monster. This being the fifth year, means we fight our first nemesis - the Butcher.

 Look at this nasty dude. He uses faces as lamp shades.

Matt here, just saying this is one of my early miniatures. Freddie dunks on it in the video, and he is right. You can’t really tell those are faces on the lamps, can you? First off, I dont have clear lines between the skin and the glass, and the contrast is too weak. The skin really needs to get darker in the shadows and, the OSL effect isn't nearly bright enough to sell that they are lamps and... look, if we survive long enough to refight this guy, I will touch up the paint job. Okay?

THE FIGHT 

This is the layout of the battle. As you can see, the 5 survivors are placed on one edge, with the Butcher standing menacingly in the middle. To the bottom right, you find our savior, the Nightmare Tree.


Our dear Dr. Ges, doing their best to fend off the swinging cleavers of the butcher.

Woke Campus somehow evading the Butcher by laying down behind a tree. 

 

Finally nasty card we all are grossed out by. Pretty cool art if you ask me.

 

Next Episode, a radically changed Nad Pod settlement will fight another GORM!

This got so succession pilled

Nolan

Poor will lol

Michael H

Dr. Jess and Bufo were my favourites, why do my favourite characters always die! Ugh.

Damarin, known to the otters as Slippery Slope

I ducking DIED laughing when Will and Freddie get into it about survival. Love this energy

Will Chang

True, but it's also funny how much they're bullying him

David ortega

They're all boss fights. It's a boss fighter game. They cheat and fudge the rules so much though it wouldn't matter

sybillium4

Nah, Will is justified in popping off lmao

Ian Francis

Need shields and full armor sets for the boss fights.

Generalnuke

The same way you hit a stone column with a rubber mallet. You can hit it, doesn't mean it damaged it.

Juan sandoval

Poor Will

Roy Kruse

Poor Will :( I feel bad but he also asked about various other ways to not die but didn't ask about survival :(

Caleb Jud

Is the file called "1" for anyone else? what did i won?

Ian Lies

Yes except all of them are Joseph

ADoubleEgg

Why’s everyone so mean to will??

Jared

Combining pommel horse with actual horseback riding is a sport called vaulting (not pole vaulting lol) I used to do it. It's a lot of fun! Everything from handstands to the splits on a running horse. 😄

Charleen Lamphere

I can’t share photos here but I made a family tree I posted to the discord chat. Joker baby was changed to moana but there was an unnamed character so I guess it could be that one. Jeremy Christmas , dark Brandon sweet James and babe mawdeep all come from boofo hero of the hunt line

Yoka

hated when everyone talked this episode

Quinn

JUSTICE FOR DR GESS!!

Devan Kranz

Id find it so annoying to play this game, why is it that you can hit a thing and not damage it

Quantum OFZENTRIX

UPDATE: it was in fact ep.2 @"1:12:00" (one hour, twelve min)

Walter Meyer

Come on guys, i am hurting for more of this content. I lay awake at nights pleading into the abyss for a new episode. The wait feels eternal. The pain, oh the pain, please i beg you satiate my impending madness.

Don Jon

I believe every character has a lifetime reroll, not one reroll for the entire game. But i love the stakes and i think this series is great

Can & Robin

Completely understand over here, libations and dungeons and daddies is HOW I ROLL!!!

Logan Child

Anyone know when we are getting more of this? I need it 🤣

Joe

Ganna reply to my own thing here and say I’ve had some wine and lost track of what I was talking about halfway through

TipToembleWeed

Idk how to swing this, but yall are creatives: my attention really leaves with the combat in this game, but settlement stage is really fun. I like that it starts from ground zero figuring out things like language and if it’s one to eat people and that the unknown world is scary and dangerous. And as an audio viewer, it’s more interesting cuz yall have more time to improv without life-threatening stakes

TipToembleWeed

I was scrolling for this lol, I see your username everywhere

Haley Kuehner

Is the boofo lineage just a twisted version of the Joestar family ? (Jo Jo’s bizarre adventure)

Worlds Nerdiest Strongman

I binged all these today and wow I’ve loved it makes me want to get it

Louis Frohock

I finished season 2 and decided to get on Patreon. And I'm so glad I did. These kdm ones are worth it alone. The story is great. I'm looking to get the game myself now lol. Can't wait for the next episode and hope this gets a long run.

Robert Kitchen

I have now accidently said "Theyre trying to hack? Someone get under the table!", out loud at my IT job because of this

Tim TaterT0ts

Yes please more of this :)

Alex Russell

When are we getting more??????

Josh Perry

I really hope this series becomes a priority for a few months I’ve listened to the whole thing like 4 times now

Zac Watson

Please more it’s so damn good!

Preston Maples

Fun fact. Master Smeef is indeed Bufo, Hero of the Hunt's grandson. It's in ep.3 I think but Bufo-debeppo and Gorm Defeater have a kid and Dr. Ges and someone have a kid. It's the only double feature so far of fertility but it leaves some hope for the BUFO line

Walter Meyer

Been thinking about signing up to the patreon for a while, finally joined for this show, absolutely love idea of the game and the mechanics, but the story and comedy is peek daddy nonsense! Keep it up!

Tatty Gash

Yeah please more

Arkrigths

When next dad monster? 👀

Tinyhumanbrain76

PLZ MORE KINGDOM DAD MONSTER!!!! WE WANT MORE PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ!!! Its amazing!! We must have moreeeee

Tinyhumanbrain76

I don't know why it took me so long to listen to this series. It’s one of my favorites now.

London Mickens

i got great news for freddie, pommel horse + actual horse is a sport, idk if its olympic level but it is a sport

ea-nasir's seventh favorite wife

Can we get a talking orb once every six episodes or something?

Philip Enders Arden

I still can’t believe how much enjoyment I get out of listening to a podcast of a board game 😅

Rebecca Brent

I hate how strongly my mind was blown by the drama of “it’s wet for the first time.”

Kay M. C.

Orb is my favorite character I sure hope nothing happens to him

Mitochondria

I feel like this game is severely affecting Will’s mental health😂

Maxine Hayes

Anyone else having trouble playing it? I can only listen to the Live Listen version

Danny Baker

Spoopy pupper NEEDS to have scrappy doo voice. Freddie make this happen please?

Arkole Blake

Sonof Boofo was one of the first 10 unnamed survivors they found after the first hunt. Freddie named them before the first ‘bed dance’. Boofo de bepo was the first child born in the settlement after mamma daddy and Boofo, hero of the hunt consumed the love juice. Holy crap I’ve listened to this series too much. Lol.

Arkole Blake

Very first rules error 😂😂😂. They constantly screw up the rules of this game

Matt

I would love to draw all of these creatures, they are flipping amazing

Unkie_Fresh

Mistakes are A-ok, cause the passion is clear!

Jiggly Cyanide

Relistening while collecting flowers in Ghost of Tsushima so I can dye my Samurai clan armor. You just never know what the day might bring.

withinmyself

Once again fantastic content, this Patreon is amazing!

Harvie Taylor

Isn't life funny? Haven't I spent two weeks in California this year because of work I would've never understand the whole sweet james thing (I'm not from the US). I feel blessed that it all led to this moment

Pedro Machado Figueira

I am curious if they went first (due to defending home) instead of the Butcher if it would have changed much. They could have avoided the mood. I actually love all of the rules errors. I think that is a hilarious and fun part of the KDM experience. It is great hearing everything playout and I always have a smile on my face while listening to the podcast.

John P

Or maybe Kill lamppost

Lea

Im surprised they haven't done something like Cill Wampos yet 😂

Lea

I think they either edited it out or it was the midnight sword thing that wasn't supposed to be used

Lea

every time freddie says munting i lose 10 years off my life

cheese biscuit

I am supremely entertained by this series! Give us MOAR!

Taylor

The two genders. Ball gazers and sword wielders

Casey Norman

If another child is born, can Freddie canonically make the newborn Bufo "Hero of the Hunt" reincarnated and just chalk it up to orb magic shenanigans? Could be a way to keep the Bufo line going.

Levi Mock

Will was robbed!! Can't say how excited I am to see how he'll be robbed next episode 😀

Jasper Hulme

I believe that is how it works. Roll to hit, roll again to wound. Anthony says in episode 1 that this is probably the most confusing part of the game (which is saying something given the complexity).

Running Ryden

No, you choose the level of a monster when deciding the next hunt. There's only 3 levels, and technically a 4th legendary level, but these guys are very, very far away from fighting a level 2

sybillium4

I'm really enjoying this series so far. Way, wayyy too much whining from Will, fun episode otherwise.

Adam Petra

Dude Matt totally reminds Freddy about HIS survival. Then Freddy comes at Will saying he shouldn’t have to be told! 😂 Will was robbed this ep.

Bradward Jones

Couldn't spot the weapon error, what was it??

Scloop

The Chuck E Cheese joke Beth made was gold

AutumnBeFallin

Matt and Freddy destroying me with the one two punch of their gags. This is such an incredible series - the improv is incredible!! Matt your minis and descriptions rock!!!

gilmobb

So deeply feeling Will’s pain this entire series

Teehea

I love this series!

Robbie Rodriguez

Orb! Noooooooo!!!

BörkBörk

I actually really loved The Orb. RIP

McCall

So, do you have to move to the second level of the monsters if you have fought that monster before?

Creekie05

the teet sucking took me OUT

foolishfrogs

This shit is so good "....hey."

DankLord420

Personally, I love how salty he is getting about it lol.

Chris

GORM GORM GORM GORM

Zoe Wrath

Im so glad they are doing this series, love it!

Zachary

I listened to that Intro twice through before moving on. Idk I enjoyed it a lot I guess.

Darryl Holiday II

Well yeah they are telling a story! They follow rules in the game and such. It was a slip up obviously but yeah sonuv boofo was one of the starting survivors the starting 4 founders met. No related to anyone even if now boofo calls this person “son” and sonuv boofo refers to the sybling as sister

Yoka

I also think about Sampson's hair too much. It is an interesting story. 🤔

Emily Leith

Boofo the Vampire Slayer

withinmyself

This is supposed to make sense?

withinmyself

Calvin Ball!! Yes!!

withinmyself

The music in this so so good!!

Sharon

#Justice4DrGes

Brandon

I think Sam Reich was here the whole time because this is a GAME CHANGER

Matthew Gallagher

Just figured out i could comment I LOVE THIS SERIES AND SEASON THREE IS AMAZING much love

Santiogo Strumph

Matt could break every rule and I’d be like THATS THE FUCKING WAY ITS PLAYED NOW

Keith Rodriguez

No one noticed fredie cheated xD

Yoka

I’m sorry but can someone please explain this to me? Because I was sure son of boofo was the daughter of boofo called boofo depepo and they changed their name to boofo prime became male and died. So boofo has no other children

Yoka

I AM WILLIAM CUMPOSE.. SEE ME

William Cumpose

So help me god if Freddy doesn’t name a character “Buffo: Episode Six - Return of the Buffo” next episode….

Donovan Perea

I did not think this game was player vs. player but here we are I guess.

Eric Willey

Have these guys actually equipped any skulls yet? This is like the third one

Gurpgork Baksheesh

Is the song at the end available somewhere?

Adrian

Is it a roll to hit the monster, and then a roll to wound it?

Mac Q

Just throwing it out there that munting is unfortunately a thing and I don't like to assume but I'm gonna guess you dont want to use that word 😂 please for the love of all you hold sacred do not Google it

Kelly Hardik

I love this so much

Nathanael Rogers

So happy this is back!!

Robbie Lowry

He keeps trying to make character driven decisions and the game always punishes him for it. I hope he never gives up, it’ll pay off will I’m sure!

Rargona

Billiam Compost

Seth Miller

does munting mean getting drink/throwing up from drinking too much? i saw another definition, and i dont think it was that, lmao (tw: corpse things... don't look it up!)

Erin Gill

Name recommendation: bastard of Boofo, one of his illegitimate children

Alec Horn

BOOOOOOOOFFFOOOOOOOOOO NOOOOOO

Josiah Muskrat

* Spoiler * Wow Will cannot keep his characters alive

NoBodiesHerePromise

By the end of this campaign, everyone will be playing characters whose names sound vaguely like "Will Campos". 😂

Sheila-la-la-la

YAYYY NEW KINGDOM DAD MONSTER

Sour Soap

As an equestrian, Freddie, they do indeed have a sport, in the Olympics, which is gymnastics on horse back 😁 it's called Vaulting. Also, horses have their own Olympics run by FEI

Sydnie Schreiber

Listened twice, i think they caught it actually. Generally speaking there were so many rule errors and misplays, they'd really benefit from a do over it might be the worst yet regarding gameplay

sybillium4

Guys… I dont think Matt is human

King Anvl

Woke Campus for President

Hana and Theo Tar Technoblade Brouse

Literally ITS ENTERTAINMENT it's great, rules are ALWAYS guidelines to Fun

Nicholas Myers

Do you know what the "endgame item" was they were talking about in the beginning? Even with them calling attention to the error, I don't know enough about the game to figure out what it is...

Brent Limyansky

A lot more than one mistake has been made lol, it's been a rulings nightmare but it's just for fun so

sybillium4

I love how this is just animal farm

Ari Cohen

I’ll wait as long as it takes

Ari Cohen

Thanks for catching this! It's been fixed.

Ashley Nicollette

So good, been loving this in combo with the call of Cthulhu

WesKane

I remain loyal to the buufo lineage. They shall return to power one day.

christopher austin

Please make this more than once a month. Please.

Daniel Monahan

So excited to see and listen to another episode of my favorite bonus game!

Caleb Jud

Salty Willl is my new favorite genre

Charlie

I would love to make one!! 🤩

Ellie Stephenson

Will you were doomed u couldn’t use the survival!!

Ace Hutson

This might be my favorite series of yours, after the first season. It's so fun to listen to and I need this game now

Phsillyre

Hell yeah I’ve been waiting so hard for this

Louis Guy

This is easily my favourite bonus content. Love the episodes thanks yall! keep up the amazing work <3

Ross

Justice for Dr. Gess.

Levi Mock

Dr. Gess is alive in our hearts 🥲

Haviland Dominguez

I knew Dr. Gess was going to die but it still kinda hurt

leon✨️

Glad to see they are taking a moment from their side show, to focus on the stuff we are here for! 👏

Sebastian Frantzen

Y'all are honestly some of the funniest people I have ever listened to. This series is phenomenal!

Mark Maloch

Hey Matt, do you think in the next episode you could add a family tree? I think it would be cool to see how the legend of nad pod grows. This series, sort of reminds me of the founding of rome, we saw the reign of boofo, now we might be in the era of woke campus. the fans could even start sport betting on player characters too to make freddie happy lol.

Thomas Jones

Lord, I love this series so much

Goodbye Nostalgia

I’ve never felt more “shut up and take my money” energy before. I love this so much.

Andrew

I so appreciate this dropping today, provided some needed laughs 🩷

BmovieBimbo

Yeah, I’d be kind of annoyed because Matt seems to remind everyone of the rules and what they can do except will. And the only reason they were even out there was because Will thought they could use the sword and Matt didn’t check it until they were already engaged in battle. Ah well.

Benjamin P Parson Gomberg

I still laugh every time I hear "Paul Atreideeeznuts"!

Kuko Creations

Will ya got done dirty bud xD Woke Campus, long may he reign!

Henry Holden

Was waiting for a roy orbson character reference

Namedafterabook

I love that Will's characters all have jobs for no real reason lol

Caz Flip Smith

agreed. love the new season but this is SO UNHINGED it satisfies a very specific need

Peyote Coyote and the Confused Bears (PCACB)

no the new season is good but this is soooooo good

Nate Boehm

idk if i’m in the minority here but i like KDM more than the core series tbh. i probably listen thru it once a week.

Peyote Coyote and the Confused Bears (PCACB)

dr. jess done dirty, damn i could feel will’s rage through the pod XD im on his side on this one i would’ve raged too 😅

“What is muntting” “you don’t wanna know” was the start of the conversation when my friend told me what it was

Z Z

Not dr Gess dying!!!

Kayla North

I'm so glad orb is dead I hated that guy

Arie

I ltrly am obsessed with kdm SUCH a good series..... keep it up !!!!

Lyn

I joined the patreon just for these episodes. So hyped its still going!

Atemisk

But guess what? Christmas comes every year. So we can get up to 5 more buufos.

Trevor Thomas

Jiminy Christmas is the sole survivor of the buufo bloodline. And he's "immortal" so the buufo bloodline should have 5 more years until the next murder.

Trevor Thomas

Matt, I am about to give my guinea pig Gregory, in my profile pic, his medicine, so I will be cuddling my most tolerant of fuzzy animals! This is perfect!

Eileen Giraffe

Yes!!!

Leo Hall

MORE

Ken

Alright, I know everybody was yelling so Beth's "check plz" didn't get the laughs Will got when he did it, but the way I bent over wheezing when she said it 🤣

J.K.Migraine

🗣️🔥🔥The era of the orb is over

McKenzie

At long last

Gurpgork Baksheesh

Hope we get a season 2 of this so we can see it in action. Keep up the great work everyone :)

Barf Drinker

The Vignette of Death? Yeah, Matt has that lovely model. Just haven't painted it yet.

Matthew Arnold

YAAASSSS. (I adore the opening of this one, as well! Ignore the rules lawyers, you guys are awesome!)

Kayla S. Pingree

Awww Matt doesn’t have the newer model of the butcher. That one is so much better than the old chicken legged version.

Barf Drinker

God I hope you’re joking.

Barf Drinker

The fucking flavor shouting match might've been the funniest thing I've heard all week

Being defeated by The Butcher really sucks, no extra population dies, but the settlement loses all of their resources. Really sets you back a ton.

J.S.

Xephyr LaFleur

Will losing his mind and becoming the bad guy of the episode killed me 😂😂

Alan Hafliger

Are our hosts more fluent?

Yousef

Holy shit I've been listening to the other episodes all day because work sucks. This makes the day so much better

Hunter Lewis

I was just relistening to the other episodes of KDM and got confused with how rolling to hit works - they roll to hit the monster, then roll to hit again? Maybe I was only half listening…

Mac Q

I work as a teen services librarian and the tween boys here are Skibidi-ing the live long day
