New Web Series ‘DesiQuest’ blends Dungeons and Dragons with Desi Culture

Roll the dice into ‘DesiQuest’

We’ve got some gaming news that’s hotter than dragon’s breath and spicier than a plate of vindaloo baby! If you’re into Dungeons & Dragons and you’re craving something fresh and packed with Desi flair, then you’re in for a treat this Diwali. Meet DesiQuest, the most lit actual-play TTRPG (tabletop role-playing games) show on the scene, and it’s about to take the gaming world by storm.  

Welcome to Vehaar

Game Master extraordinaire, Jasmine Bhullar, isn’t just another dice-rolling aficionado. She’s a game-changer, and she’s bringing ‘Desi’ to the forefront of tabletop gaming. While D&D often gets caught up in European history and clichés, DesiQuest flips the script by giving us a taste of South Asian stories and storytellers in gaming. It’s about time, right?

In the realm of tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs), few are as experienced and passionate as Game Master Jasmine Bhullar. Her love for storytelling through dice and character sheets has led her to a remarkable endeavor, one that’s making waves in the TTRPG community and beyond. 

DesiQuest also showcases the incredible talent within the South Asian community. With stars like Sandeep Parikh (The Guild) and Anjali Bhimani (Ms. Marvel) gracing the cast, viewers can expect captivating performances and an unforgettable journey through this unique TTRPG world.  The main cast also includes Rekha Shankar (Between Two Ferns: The Movie) and overall huge nerd, Omar Najam. The chemistry among the cast members adds an extra layer of excitement and immersion to the show.

The inclusion of Desi voices in TTRPGs is not only a breath of fresh air but also a significant step towards creating a more inclusive and representative gaming landscape. DesiQuest sets the stage for other creators to explore and celebrate their own cultures within the world of tabletop gaming.

But that’s not all, folks! The production dream team is nothing short of legendary. Effinfunny, led by CCO Sandeep, Head of Production Jeff Winkler (the mastermind behind “The Legend of Neil” and “The Guild”), and Anand Shah (a big shot from 20th Century Fox and Paramount), are all on board. They’re here to make sure DesiQuest blows your mind.

And then, there’s the A-team. Dimension 20 director Michael Schaubach, producer extraordinaire Ash Minnick (the genius behind “D20,” “LA By Night,” and “NY By Night”), and artistic whiz Fon Davis (who’s worked on some tiny projects like “Star Wars,” “Star Trek,” and “Terminator”) are making magic happen. And don’t forget Nox Berf, famous for Geek & Sundry’s “Relics & Rarities.” These folks are the real MVPs, turning DesiQuest into a cinematic masterpiece.

DesiQuest is more than just a TTRPG show; it’s a cultural revolution. It’s breaking free from the shackles of Eurocentric fantasy and diving headfirst into South Asian narratives. There’s a treasure trove of untapped history, folklore, and legends waiting to be explored, and DesiQuest is here to dig deep.

So, grab your dice, roll for initiative, and get ready to be transported to a world where South Asian culture and fantasy collide in the most epic way possible. DesiQuest is not just a show; it’s a journey, a celebration, and a testament to the power of storytelling in all its glorious forms. The show premieres on November 14 at DesiQuest.com.
