The Scorchborn Saga Part 3!

Safely aboard the Ashen Crown and en route to the Endless Forest to find Maz, our adventurers are presented with a rare moment of rest, which starts with Toko fishing and nearly ends with Sal lost overboard, the ship and his friends sailing on without him. Svetlana investigates a mysterious sailor with a creeping scar on his neck. And what does Bogha find behind a door she isn't supposed to open?

All that, and a very special gift for the party from Svetlana, in this episode of... The Naturolls!

The Scorchborn Saga Part 2!

Having cleaned up a mess in the back of the Deadeye Saloon, the party heads back to the Ashen Crown to rest and recap with Captain Daemir Bloodwake. Their final goal in Kraken's Harbor before setting sail to the Endless Forest? Investigating the goings-on at the storehouse of the Jagged Knife. What lurks for them in the shadows? And what, in the deepest depths of the building, shines brightly at Svetlana's presence?

THE START OF OUR SECOND ARC - The Scorchborn Saga

After leaving the dungeon below Skyland, the party rests and wakes up in the morning to startling news - Maz has gone missing. The only thing she left behind was a note saying not to follow her... so of course the party, with help of new friend Salvador Darkwalker, immediately starts retracing her steps. 

The first step takes them to Kraken's Harbor, a dock on the northern coast of The Shatterlands. It's pretty a pretty typical shipping port, full of colorful characters and sights to see... except for the big, ominous warehouse in the center that seems to be a frequent stopping point for shadowy figures in dark robes.

Where has Maz gone? What are the mysterious symbols Svetlana finds that reminds her of her god? Will the party find the daemon in the fancy hat?

THE END OF OUR FIRST ARC!

Our plucky band of adventurers reach the end of the dungeon and the monster who hides there, and are horrified to find that he recognizes one of them. They discover a ritual that may be at the heart of the destruction of Skyland, and decide that there's no negotiating with evils from your past. 

PLUS a cliffhanger so good, it just might change the future of The Naturolls FOREVER.

Our first arc, The End of the 100 Year Peace, concludes with this episode. Next episode begins... The Scorchborn Saga.

This dungeon beneath Skyland just keeps going, doesn't it? As the adventurers inch ever closer to the answers that they seek, more foul creatures lie in wait to ambush them. Toko stumbles on a memory of his past, hinting that whatever lies ahead may be more personal for him than the rest of the party. Maz goes on the offensive and almost takes it too far. Bogha stands toe to toe with a monster ten times her size. Yriel captures a villain. Svetlana reasons with him. Hilo stabs something clean through. Pazu does cool sandcat things.

All this and more on the latest episode of... The Naturolls!

Our plucky band of adventurers have a quick decision - face the guards who've just watched Bogha's magical transformation, or push through the door into the dark, foul-smelling unknown deeper in the dungeon below Skyland. Something waits for them beyond that door. Will they creep past or charge headfirst into whatever lurks there?

Plus! Our GM goads the players into making a potentially profitable but dangerous decision, and Yriel whips up a little surprise for Toko.

Our brave adventurers dive deeper into the dungeon below Skyland, searching for answers about what caused the destruction on the city above them. After reconnecting with a friend, they charge head first into more of the Jagged Knife, throwing axes first and asking questions... never. A run-in with a magic mirror leaves them questioning some of their choices. And once again, they devise a plan so crazy that maybe it just might work.

Even a city in the sky has a seedy underbelly...

The adventurers enter the dungeon below Skyland looking for answers. Instead, they find an unexpected friend and the opportunity to make a complicated plan involving costumes, fake captors, hidden swords, and the admiration of butts. 

Will our brave heroes fool the guards and gain entry into the darker depths of the dungeon? And what will they learn about the destruction of the shining capital city above them?

Skyland is burning and the crew still has this little problem of the boy they "rescued" from the woods. Who do they help? How do they do it? What will they learn when they head into the destruction of the once great city? Will Padre's Potatoes still be standing, or is all hope lost?

Sorry, friends. No new main episode this week. 

Instead, John (@teecha.bsky.social) and Michael (@revealingtoomuch.bsky.social) sit down for a brief chat of some of the major rules of the TTRPG system we're running, Daggerheart.

We're hoping it helps you understand our show better!
