Love that the cold opens are slowly getting more and more chaotic

[@KCKovec]

Namaste! The following comment contains timestamps to more easily navigate Episode 17 of Natural Six. Please note that there are spoilers below: .... .... .... 2:32 Episode 17 recap. There's some wacky arm waving in and I'm getting used to cold open's silly banter 5:57 Where we left off at the town square 11:55 Back track to The Black Cat. 21:55 I (the character, not the timestamp guy) may have stolen something from a person. 29:12 Into the mountains. Dolly and Raidion do some late night reading 37:40 Kelnys's nightmare 42:12 Uh oh, more weird stuff in water. 50:35 I don't think the words 'poo sling' and 'prolapse' have ever been said this much in a campaign before. 1:03:20 Kelnys is straight savage. 1:10:05 Hey, it's fish food. 1:20:20 Spoon check. Doug rolls a 9 on a d6. 1:28:33 Later that night 1:35:35 Welcome to Vale. Warnings of the Fortis Legion 1:45:25 Where have all the tieflings gone? 1:51:00 The gang is day drinking again. 1:57:40 Commerical break. Alex's bowling shirts give him incredible libido 1:59:20 Back from the break. Useful insight on the lemon throwing. 2:04:50 In mourning. 2:15:45 Kelnys is confusing to Raidion. History on how they ended up in The Web. 2:23:20 I is still kind of tripping. 2:25:45 Everyone checks in. It was nice passing through, but onward towards The Sanctum. 2:29:44 First, some spoon hustling. We're going to keep saying Ray Chase until he guest stars on the show. 2:37:10 Time to go for real. But there's those dragon paladins from earlier.. 2:46:00 Recon at the bridge.

I've just started watching this series like 4 weeks ago and I caught up with the Episode 17 Action Surge about 10 minutes ago. So I'm totally caught up! Went to your little DnD for beginners session with my girlfriend at London Comic Con (despite being a forever DM, my girlfriend is a new player) and have been obsessed ever since! Thank you for all the work you put into this, it's reignited my passion for the game and continues to inspire my own work on my current campaign. Keep it up!

[@NaturalSix]

Thank you, comments like this mean so much to us! 😭 - Hollie

[@LikesToRaveDave]

@NaturalSix no, thank you! You've expressed finding the role play hard but you're so good at it! You make it look easy!

[@MegaMad11]

Every time we learn more about who Raidion is/was before all this and the more he tells his story. I just want to give him a hug and let him know he's safe. Damn the storytelling is brilliant.

[@davidhand9721]

1:08:58 What a bizarre, off the wall way to get some Raidion lore!!

[@namstel9225]

So many nice moments, beautiful moments, exciting ones... and then there's "I cast inverse prolapse" and it has me in stitches. 🤣 I could watch this show until the end of time!

[@jessicablosser7853]

What an ending. This episode really did tick all the boxes.

Doug trying to rename the channel to Natural Nine with his D6 rolls.

[@CraftedCampaigns]

The group of characters is really starting to gel as a party, it's wonderful to see!

[@brianj959]

Within 30 seconds of a new episode of Nat6, I know I’m going to be in a good mood this evening. You’re all the best; and the colour coordination in forest greens today was I suspect accidental but 👌. Let there be 🍋🍋.

[@Martina_320]

I really loved all the interactions between characters in this episode. Revealing more background for some of them or just drinking very dubious drinks and dealing with its consequences. Loved it all. Thank you for the new episode and wish you all a very lovely lemony day.

[@jazzyb9488]

When life gives you 🍋 make Steve Chase

[@MrDavidMoyer]

I just had a weird thought. What if "The Gloam" aren't actually "evil" they're just roadies for a really REALLY hardcore metal band. They're not trying to take over the world. They're just securing a number of venues to hold an interactive death metal concert that is going to happen at 8 locations around the world simultaneously. But the event's organizers think that adding a bit of violence and mystery to the setup will give it that much more impact when the band(s) finally take the stage and "rock your world." Like something out of "Metalocalypse." Ever seen it? That episode where they accidentally summoned a troll while trying to apologize to Norway for the deaths that occurred at their previous concert there, by singing a "traditional Norwegian folk-metal song" (actually a troll-summoning spell they found in an overdue library book) as an apology, was hilarious.

[@ArchAngel_M81]

If I remember right, Petra was the Tiefling they met at the Gnomish temple? I might be wrong. Some close calls to being caught in this episode.

[@baldipogchamp8926]

Yes, the one who was *sipping wine and gazing at the moon*

[@richnewt]

DND BAAAABBBBYYY Don't worry Harry you haven't kept us long at all

[@randalladkins7452]

Poor Steve Chase! He’s getting a bum rap. It was DOLLY who called Steve Chase Kelnys while trying to sell his spoons! 😊

[@baldipogchamp8926]

Scandal!

[@davidhand9721]

He did say "Dolly" and "I", though.

[@Ben_D.]

So good to see Ben and Hollie at the joystick. Woo! Looking dapper in the Miami Vice jacket and the ever so cute and very small dress. I was all 'I know these two!' (which of course I dont. but...)

[@wisdom875]

Aww poor I, feeling left out because nobody put spoons in his bag 🥺

[@nates4310]

Absolutely I’ve the show - blazed through all previous episodes just since last week…

[@emmagardener]

Once again- fantastic episode! And a real rollercoaster of emotions! ❤🎉

[@Al_theshoeman_Bundy]

I love that I am still 3 episodes behind and you all are cranking them out ao fast. 👍

[@davidogilvie-u9r]

I would love LOVE…….LOVE! To see some make an animated adventure following the story of our characters with Harry’s voice over of the journey I can play all this in my head being able to see animated would be so cool

[@valkyrie_wyvern]

Love this episode so much, I love the Raidion and Dolly as that got me in tears, well done and can't wait to see more!

[@SilkyC]

Ok but about Alex catching those Lemons tho.......

[@NaturalSix]

Wait until you see the BtS video on Friday afternoon 🤣🤣 - Hollie

[@ageofno-01]

59:20 Raidion, you had the opportunity to *MOONWALK* away from an opponent in combat and you blew it! Tsss!

[@justincasebro1567]

What a storyteller, well done Harry.

[@thickskull]

[@bigaj6901]

Hoping and praying one of those dragonborn paladins uses bombs. And forgets they can attack twice.

[@esteban280889]

one plot twist would be nasty if we find out Raiden killed Kels family before he lost his memory. (unless his memory loss happened before joining the web)

[@PrideSin]

Words for the algorithm god!

[@meph2473]

So as a non-native english speaker certain vocabulary just does not come up. Like different kinds of fruit or vegetables and also body parts and organs, medical conditions, etc. I had do do a risky google search at 52:00 and learned a new word.

[@baldipogchamp8926]

Hahaha oh no! By the way if you get lost about names and nouns that are Reliquiae specific, there is a glossary/mini-wiki of fantasy terms online the community has set up with Harry updating it each episode with new entries. Google SixPackPedia for it :)

[@mrgingerking100]

🍋 Steve chase approves of lemmons

[@Loko-wl7fo]

Another great stream and game! Thank you. Could you please share your background music playlist?

[@langdon7x]

It's the extra long laugh at the beginning that's just 5 seconds too long, for me. God he's good.

[@davidhand9721]

52:00 y'all are goofy today

[@hypersphere412]

I'm curious, who wrote the soundtrack for the opening credits? Because I absolutely love it and want more.

[@rain9190]

Alex Moukala who you can find on KZbin. He does a lot of great composing work :)

[@esteban280889]

based on the map Veil is the opposite direction to The Sanctum?

[@Dead-EyeJuncan]

I think they went for the south bridge to avoid going back near to Baruun. Also more exploration of the world!

[@NaturalSix]

It is, but the lure of the Veil was just too good to resist, especially after meeting that Docent of Grace (and if we went straight to the Sanctum, we’d end up even farther from it so we'd probably never get a chance to visit) and we don't have a major time pressure on us. From Yannik, it was really just a matter of heading down through The Mab, hitting Veil, then crossing the bridge, and following the path up to the Sanctum, so the journey’s flow still works. Plus, I think our little trip to the Veil helped us better understand how the world thinks and feels :) - Hollie

[@esteban280889]

@@NaturalSix fair enough. :)

[@soumyajyotimukherjee4752]

Question about the world: Is reliquea a continent? or is it the entire world of the setting? #NaturalSix

[@NaturalSix]

Hope this helps :D - doras.to/naturalsix/lore - Hollie

[@LikesToRaveDave]

From my understanding of what was explained in the first few episodes, Reliquiea is almost like a discworld (Terry Pratchett). Its a large landmass surrounded on all sides by seemingly impassable mountain ranges called the Allanites The view of the populace, at least until the gods were known to be dead, was that this was the world and there was simply nothing beyond the Allanites (might have mispelt that). However, in the first couple episodes it was revealed that from Mount Atria (big mt right in the centre of the landnmass) the party saw a giant tree and a giant thorn bush beyond the mountains. So to answer your question, Reliquiea is somewhat isolated with the people thinking its the whole world. Theres definitely something beyond it, but what form that takes is anyones guess. Seems to be treated like anything outside of Reliquiea is almost like another plane of existence in settings like the Forgotten Realms.

[@wjamesmci]

I played a dragonborn paladin and I would like to think he probably would of been a part of the fortis legion. Be that a good thing in this world. I'm not so sure....

[@flooring31]

18 all right

[@Dead-EyeJuncan]

Are you guys going to try and teach I (the kobold, not myself (you can't say 'not the me' anymore as that is now also his alias!) to read with the children's books you got from Mouse?

[@NaturalSix]

Yep, but the only time we had around the campfire recently where it felt good was here and I (the me not the character) felt that Raidion and Dolly had such a nice moment about reading and what it means to them, that me then jumping in to try that with I just didn’t feel like the right thing to do - Hollie

[@MrDavidMoyer]

12:20 Sorry, I realize this is a 100% fantasy pretend magical world. But as a professional hydrologist/geochemist I just have to quietly call "bullshit" LOL. No need to defend your world-building. No need for a response. Just wait 30 seconds and I'll forget all about this, I promise you. But I noticed some inconsistencies in your waterways of Reliquiae. You have one river flowing from a lake (suspiciously without any visible source) TO a mountain... so it flows UPHILL am I right? Weird. Then from that same mountain where that river ends, it meets another flowing westward from three tributaries, also flowing from small mountains to the world's biggest mountain. And from there they join and flow southwest, presumably FINALLY starting to go downhill, only to mysteriously end at the feet of a different mountain. Similarly you have another river in the northwest that flows from another mountain "uphill" to a lake at the foot of the biggest mountain, too. So Reliquiae must be in a sort of crater then, with the big mountain, Mt Atria, basically sitting down in a hole at the crater's center, and all the encircling mountains are at a higher "ground level" than that. EXCEPT the river flowing to the southwest where I guess there is a sort of gentle ravine where Atria is higher up than the feet of the southwestern mountains. It's a weird hydrology, and a strange topography setup. That's brain-teaser number one. But the bigger brain-teaser with the hydrology of Reliquiae is that NONE OF THE WATER goes anywhere. It all just ENDS at a mountain. There is no sea, no final outlet for any of the rivers. Leaving me to wonder, where does it all go? Does it all just exit the universe in a watergap between a couple of mountains in that southwestern corner of the map? (and if so, why has nobody ever tried to navigate through there?) Or is it like the Colorado River in the US/Mexico which no longer reaches the ocean because it all evaporates or is pumped out for human use before it gets there?

[@davidpdet313]

Aoife is such a smoke show and a mega pro at RP. She hits the serious points and dishes out comic relief _and_ makes it look easy. Dolly is my #1 waifu :3
