Action Surge Episode 46
Season 1, Ep. 46
•
We like 'em cold, we like 'em hot. It's time for this week’s Action Surge!
This week we talk about bad luck, poor rolls, and everyone’s note-taking abilities. Nobody will be surprised to learn that some people are better at this than others. Welcome to the Alex Jordan mind palace.
We think everyone agrees that the Temple of the Once Wild was a pretty special place. We talk about Magnus, Harry’s inspiration behind him, and let’s be honest, we all agree that Magnus and Lovak would have got into a lot of trouble in the past. Good trouble. Well, bad good trouble. You know what we mean.
From there, we turn our attention to letters, language, and Theolon, a god of two halves. Those letters might not be as unknown as they once were, and if you need a reminder of what they said, you can find them, and so much more, over on our Fandom. Don't forget to check it out!
Harry talks about the challenges of balancing multiple character stories and arcs, and how he switches between them. Ben shares some insight into how he is playing Raidion right now, including the mashing and merging of character sheets.
Finally, we look ahead to Harry’s next big action sequence, the upcoming boat race, and why action at the table does not always have to mean fighting and battles.
Is this our Podracing moment?!

Ep. 66 A Fiery Endorsement
03:11:59||Season 1, Ep. 66The buzzing of bees and a new day creeps into view. What better way is there to begin a new journey, with a rested body and hope on the horizon.Each step taken in this new direction is a step further away from what came before. Will you greet the unknown as a friend should, or remain way of blades in the dark. The night is pitch black and every light casts a shadow.There are many who would travel the same roads as us. Friend or foe, all must traverse the road in front of them. Keep your eyes on the road, lest you fall afoul the unexpected.---Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/naturalsixJoin our Discord! https://discord.gg/HNV56DADnJFollow us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/naturalsixFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natural_six65. Action Surge Episode 65
47:45||Season 1, Ep. 65Alex fails his dexterity saving throw and the everyone immediately starts making penis jokes. This is starting to become a bit too normal around here. This action surge unpacks a lot of the, rather ridiculous behaviour, that the party engaged in whilst letting their hair down and getting their feet wet.Having reached the end of an arc, there’s a lot of reflecting and considerations for what comes next.Gnomes anyone? Harry digs into some of his thoughts and processes for introducing a gnome city into the narrative. And what about all the new lore we’ve picked up? What does it tell us about the gods? The totems? The very world itself? Whatever the answers, we all need to talk about the new cuddly party member!---Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/naturalsixJoin our Discord! https://discord.gg/HNV56DADnJFollow us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/naturalsixFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natural_six65. Ep. 65 Hot and Bothered
03:11:02||Season 1, Ep. 65With the dust beginning the settle and a new dawn on the horizon, the scales begin to tip in a new direction. Blood is thicker than water but what of gold?Time will tell. A thick canopy of bark and branch might obscure the way for some.For others it creates a path clearer than any road. Perhaps we all end up exactly where we’re mean to be. And what of rest? When waters boil and steam rises, do you let yourself soak in the stillness or prepare yourself for what awaits in the cold?---Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/naturalsixJoin our Discord! https://discord.gg/HNV56DADnJFollow us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/naturalsixFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natural_six64.

02:51:26||Season 1, Ep. 64The sound of glass shatters a long held silence. Could the glass be protecting us from threats outside or will shattering the glass reveal new secrets?Shining a light on the dark will reveal the unknown, but what new shadows will rise to take it’s place? You should take care, not to loose your footing, lest you slip and fall into the unknown.In all this chaos and noise, take a moment to find the answers you seek. Even something as simple as ones own name may hold more questions than answers.---Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/naturalsixJoin our Discord! https://discord.gg/HNV56DADnJFollow us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/naturalsixFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natural_six63.

02:55:22||Season 1, Ep. 63To achieve our dreams and indulge in our fantasies, there must always be a sacrifice. Sometimes the sacrifice is small and easily made. Other times it requires a heavy toll and blood must be spilled.Is death enough to atone for ones crimes? What of those who come after. The ones who are forced to clean up your mess and pick up the pieces. What will it take to wash the blood from their hands.And now footsteps weigh heavy on a dying land. Each step like walking on fragile glass. One mistake and the whole thing could shatter.---Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/naturalsixJoin our Discord! https://discord.gg/HNV56DADnJFollow us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/naturalsixFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natural_six62. Action Surge Episode 62
58:39||Season 1, Ep. 62After two sessions of non stop combat, it’s time to take a breather and unpack everything that’s happened.Harry, Ben and Alex dig into the emotional and mechanical depths of combat...by comparing it to football. Obviously.Harry unleashes a 60ft cone of combat mechanics upon the party, discussing breath weapons, spell slots, DOMF, and vials of super secret wasp juice. This combat had it all, baby.Even when Harry dashes off, everyone somehow stays on task and keeps talking about the battle. It’s almost scary how little nonsense and mischief they get up to. Is Ben ok????Finally, to wrap up all this serious D&D conversation, Aoife and Doug reckon with their joint ‘healer’ roles within the party, while Ben recalls an annoying fan.
