"I Hit It With My Axe" Is How Porn Stars Play DND

When you hear the words "Dungeons and Dragons," what's the first thing that comes to your mind? It probably isn't "porn stars," unless you either read the title of this blog entry, or you're already a fan of I Hit It With My Axe. The reality show, currently featured on The Escapist, recorded a campaign played by Mandy Morbid, Kimberly Kane, Satine Phoenix, and several of their friends whose professions include exotic dancing, pin-up modeling, and (in one case) hairdressing. There's over 30 episodes of the show, and it features a variety of special guests, including noted adult film star Sasha Grey in the debut episode.

Don't pretend you need this picture to know who I'm talking about.
So what is I Hit It With My Axe like? Well, it's an engaging show about a group of gamers playing a campaign. Some of the players are fresh, some have been playing for years, and generally speaking the game has about the mix of goof-off, bad jokes, demands for snacks, and spurting blood you'd expect from your average DND campaign.

What, you were expecting giggles, sanitized couches, and lingerie parties? If that's the case, move along. If, on the other hand, you're curious to know more then check out this brief interview Geekscape did with Satine Phoenix about the show at Comic Con several years back.


I don't know about you, but I'm a fan.

Editor's Note


It appears that the show has broken from The Escapist. A fuller explanation of the reasons for the split can be found at the blog DND With Pornstars. Efforts to continue the show in another location which fits with the ethics of all participants is ongoing, and if you want to keep up with the crew's progress go and Like their Facebook page.
