The party enters the walls of the Red City of Agmar, grateful to be back after a harrowing mission in the forest beyond. Instructed by Nomgar to rest, the guilders take a much needed breather, cleaning themselves in the hot spring and spending the next two days recuperating. Not every guilder rests easy though, and sometimes, the most important moments happen where no one can see.

Welcome to this week’s episode of Reckless A-Talk!
DM Nathan got to sit down with one of the brightest and kindest rising stars in TTRPG right now, Lexi McQueen AKA @blackgirlmage!
Lexi is an accomplished D&D and TTRPG streamer who is preparing to launch her first long-form streamed campaign (Strix U/The Strix) and has recently DM’d for a veritable array of D&D celebrities, including Matt Mercer himself!
Lexi is also one of the most intentional thinkers, generous souls, and joy-filled people in the tabletop space.
She and Nathan touch on being a laser marshall, DMing for the stars, worldbuilding on stream, the importance of plot, and the importance of being a good person and surrounding yourself with good people. Plus a lot more - it’s a long episode, but what was DM Nathan supposed to do, stop chatting???
Enjoy, and see you next week!

A creature of unbridled aggression and hatred against the living, the Untethered are what happens when one of the Bones has their control forcibly taken from them. However, the core of each one still remains beneath all the raw emotion. The party ventures outside the walls of AGMAR in search of the missing Bones, hoping to save whoever they can from the torturous nightmare of being untethered.

She and Nathan chat about storytelling vs. telling a story, creating an inclusive space, game running for more than 20 players throughout a single story, and so much more.
Enjoy, and see you on Tuesday!
