Natural Six

Action Surge sneaks up on you… here we are again!This week, we kick things off with a very important reminder—Doug couldn’t fly. Unfortunately, everyone except Doug had completely forgotten that, leading to an unforgettable (and gravity-assisted) trip from the top of The Sanctum to the lake below. When the dice dictate the options, you just have to roll with it… literally.Ben dives into the philosophy of putting the story first, even when it puts Raidion in serious jeopardy. We also take a moment to reflect on Yilda’s Bond Villain Syndrome—making a dramatic exit before making sure the job was actually finished. Meanwhile, we entertain the absolute chaos that would unfold if Aska was ever truly let loose on Mouse… and, more importantly, on Elowen’s brothers.Finally, Alex shares more about I’s state of mind as the journey to the Old Dark looms ever closer. How has I’s outlook shifted over time? What’s weighing on him most? Join us—the players, not the characters (or the U, Me, or I)—for the full breakdown.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_sixFollow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@natural.sixLearn more about the world and cast: https://www.NaturalSix.net

As the storm rages and the rain lashes down, it becomes clear the Newly Dead will find no sanctuary in the Sanctum. To secure their future, they must take a leap of faith into uncharted waters.Rest, however, is fleeting as unexpected dangers test their resolve and challenge their faith in everything they once believed to be true. Secrets are shared, tempers flare, and those thought lost may be closer than they ever imagined.Their journey may lead them to the old home of the gods, a place where divine decisions and magic once shaped Reliquiae. But whatever answers they hope to find, they are not the only ones seeking them.In a world where identity is fragile, me, you, and I must unite to face what lies ahead.Natural Six are Harry McEntire, Doug Cockle, Ben Starr, Hollie Bennett, Alex Jordan and Aoife Wilson. #NaturalSix #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #ttrpg #actualplaySupport 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_sixFollow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@natural.sixLearn more about the world and cast: https://www.NaturalSix.net

We’ve not cried like this since Armageddon!The gang sat down for a full-on session of millennial therapy after our most intense episode yet. We discuss the power of storytelling, emotional whiplash and the joy of seeing long planned moments come to fruition at the table.Harry reveals previously unseen chambers of the Sanctum model, the inevitability of Erastus Gracey, and reflects on the magic created when players do something entirely unexpected. There’s chat about mastering mechanics, the dice telling the story, and reveals that offer more questions than answers. Plus we delve into a new piece of music in the episode and reveal the inspiration behind it. Though short a Ben Starr for much of this instalment, we remained rich in ideas, innuendos and chat. It’s what he would have wanted.Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/naturalsix Join our Discord! https://discord.gg/HNV56DADnJ Follow us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/naturalsix Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natural_sixFollow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@natural.sixLearn more about the world and cast: https://www.NaturalSix.net#NaturalSix #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #ttrpg #actualplay

The Web might be wide, but the stairs of the Sanctum are narrow, and every step upward is fraught with danger. When the Fortis Legion make their stance clear (with swords, not words), the Newly Dead are forced to rely on their wits, steel, and some… unconventional allies.As secrets come to light and battles rage, the party faces hard choices and even harder foes. With each roll of the dice, they move closer to uncovering truths that could define who they are—and what they’re fighting for.Will the Newly Dead survive The Sanctum?Natural Six are Harry McEntire, Doug Cockle, Ben Starr, Hollie Bennett, Alex Jordan and Aoife Wilson. #NaturalSix #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #ttrpg #actualplay Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/naturalsix Join our Discord! https://discord.gg/HNV56DADnJ Follow us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/naturalsix Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natural_sixFollow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@natural.sixLearn more about the world and cast: https://www.NaturalSix.net

As the Newly Dead continue their adventure through Reliquiae, plots thicken and mysteries deepen.

This IS Rock Justice!If you’ve ever been on the fence about joining us for our post-show breakdowns, this episode is the perfect showcase of the insights, surprises, and behind-the-scenes details that make it all worth it.Harry dives into the enigmatic power of The Wasp, while Doug reflects on Kelnys’ “should’ve, could’ve, would’ve” decision-making. Together, they unpack the fascinating role of happenstance during Kel’s shapeshifting moment.We also chat about our uncanny knack for making—and breaking—new friendships (surely a record this time?), Harry’s plans to delve deeper into Raidion’s memories, Alex’s experience of playing a character defined by discovery rather than secrets, and, of course, Dolly’s moment of destructive brilliance (she really packs a punch when she wants to!).Action Surge is Natural Six's fortnightly post-show debrief, where Dungeon Master Harry and the cast break down their favourite moments, their regrets, and any theories from the Dungeons and Dragons session they've just played, as well as adding their thoughts and hopes for future play.

With the true target unveiled, the party is forced to confront the vast reach of the Web once more. To face what’s coming, they need to make a daring choice: do they keep their potential enemies close—even if it sharpens the sting of betrayal?Over shared meals and unexpected gifts, the Newly Dead savour a fleeting calm before sailing headlong into the storm. The black waters of Fathom churn with unseen threats, and trust among the crew begins to unravel. The climb to the Sanctum offers no respite; as they traverse treacherous ravines and face shadows of their own making. But when they finally reach the top, how close is too close when your enemy weaves The Web you’re caught in?Natural Six are Harry McEntire, Doug Cockle, Ben Starr, Hollie Bennett, Alex Jordan and Aoife Wilson.

The Payoff is Everything!In this episode, we couldn’t wait to rush back to the table to process all the twists, turns, and emotional moments. We dive deep into Kelnys and his magic amulet, unpack the unexpected crossover with Klaaks and The Broken Pebble (our Patreon-based audio adventure), and explore how lore drops and character stories intertwine.We reflect on the vulnerability of that comes with exploring on your own, the magic of Harry’s unforgettable innkeeper performances, and the fine art of balancing humour, camaraderie, and the serious stakes of the game. There’s laughter, heartfelt moments, and yes—Harry’s charming belief that wasps make jam.Action Surge is Natural Six's fortnightly post-show debrief, where Dungeon Master Harry and the cast break down their favourite moments, their regrets, and any theories from the Dungeons and Dragons session they've just played, as well as adding their thoughts and hopes for future play.

While The Sanctum may be in their sights, trouble buzzes in every shadow. The beautiful town of Seascale seems serene at first glance, but a deeper infestation —both in the lake and within its walls—has left people feeling uneasy. While Dolly shares a glass of wine and memories with an old friend who offers a flicker of hope, the Newly Dead face a sting to their plans. A simple job proves to be anything but, and an unseen predator circles closer, leaving the Newly Dead stung by the realisation that their every step has been watched—and their every move, marked.Natural Six are Harry McEntire, Doug Cockle, Ben Starr, Hollie Bennett, Alex Jordan, and Aoife Wilson. #NaturalSix #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #ttrpg #actualplay
