Rachelle Udell has been the author on such diverse Mage titles as The Bitter Road, Revelations of the Dark Mother, and to the Disparate Alliance section of the Mage: The Ascension 20th Anniversary Edition core rulebook. On today’s show, Rachelle and Terry talk about how Rachelle got into writing for Mage, where she sees the Ahl-i-Batini in the 21st century and, of course, why buying Neiman Marcus collard greens is a cry for help.

“It’s worth noting that Revelations of the Dark Mother was written by me and my longtime Mage collaborator Rachelle Udell/Mara Elkheart, with the intention that it's essentially a Vampire/Mage crossover ‘gospel.’”
