Mac steps onto the chained platform with Orlan Threetongue, surrounded by roaring crowds, black water, and the growing sense that this arena was never just about entertainment. As steel, spellwork, and dirty tricks start flying, Ruby and Stenny look for another way out — because winning the fight may not be the same thing as completing the mission. There are strange bottles, stranger magic, a crowd hungry for blood, and one very important question hanging over everything: What is really happening beneath Verdencia? #DaggersAndDrams #Deep6 #DnD #DungeonsAndDragons #DnDActualPlay #TTRPG #ActualPlay #ActualPlayPodcast #TTRPGCommunity #DnD5e Chapters: 00:00 Previously on Deep 6 01:00 Deep 6 Intro 02:19 Roll Initiative 03:15 The Party Looks for Options 05:08 Orlan Circles the Platform 06:48 Mac Makes the First Move 08:24 Orlan Answers Back 09:45 Ruby and Stenny Head Below 10:57 Shatter on the Platform 12:20 The Fight Tips Out of Balance 14:07 Vicious Words and Dirty Tricks 16:03 Searching for Another Way Out 18:07 Ruby Makes a Bold Suggestion 20:31 The Gatekeeper Intervenes 22:05 Daddy Enters the Arena 24:26 The Crowd Turns 26:39 Mac Forces the Fight Back On 28:26 Orlan Changes Tactics 30:19 Thunderclap and Disappearance 32:06 A Blade from Behind 34:12 Mac Changes the Game 36:36 Mind Spike 39:05 Orlan Pushes Back 41:11 Mac Sees an Opening 42:52 The Arena Falls Silent 45:05 A Questionable Victory 47:43 The Coin Disappears 50:31 The Vial Is Collected 52:18 Aftermath in the Locker Room 55:15 A Private Moment 58:07 Paying Respects 01:01:23 The Party Questions What Happened 01:07:50 Leaving Through the Mansion 01:10:45 Malk Watches from the Carriage 01:12:05 Back to Base 01:14:21 Outro and Announcements .

    The Fine Print : Daggers And Drams : Deep 6 : C1E26

    Daggers and Drams: Deep 6 Scotland’s own TTRPG, Actual Play, Dungeons and Dragons , Podcast. As the arena shifts into its next brutal phase, the party gets a brief chance to regroup, investigate, and make a few questionable decisions before the next fight begins. There are strange coins, stranger fluids, suspicious spectators, and more than one person who clearly knows more than they’re saying. Ruby does what Ruby does best: charms her way into a conversation, asks entirely too many personal questions, and somehow becomes the most noticeable person in the room. Meanwhile, Mac prepares for what may be his most dangerous fight yet, Stenny keeps an eye out for trouble, and Orlan Threetongue proves there is much more to him than a flashy blade and a big reputation. The deeper the party gets into the Rust Below, the clearer it becomes: this arena is not just entertainment. Something bigger is happening beneath Verdencia. 🎧 Find Us Via Linktree: https://linktr.ee/daggersanddrams Merch! https://daggers-and-drams-shop.myshopify.com/ CAST: Jane Burns as Nemessia Jake DeBurka as Stenny Lauren Ferrier as Ruby Craig Haverstock as Mac Brecken Haverstock as Magda Jay West as D.M.  #DaggersAndDrams #Deep6 #DnD #DungeonsAndDragons #DnDActualPlay #TTRPG #ActualPlay #ActualPlayPodcast #TTRPGCommunity #DnD5e Chapters: 00:00 Previously on Deep 6 01:12 Level-Ups and Dangerous Timing 03:05 Intermission in the Rust Below 05:00 Stenny Steals, Ruby Bets 06:16 A Very Ruby Level-Up 07:20 Strange Coins and Stranger Fluid 10:09 Mac Studies the Spellbook 12:04 Mac Questions Orlan 15:52 Ruby Goes Looking for Trouble 18:01 Charm Person Strikes Again 21:17 Ruby Meets Tyron 24:06 Dark Secrets and Pocket Dogs 25:11 The River of Life 26:59 Melina Starts Watching 27:49 The Most Conspicuous Invisible Bunny 28:22 Tyron and Melina 30:36 The Highborn Return 31:54 Fighters Enter the Ring 33:59 The Bout Begins 35:31 First Blood 36:59 Stolen Voices 38:12 Bardic Tricks and Blades 39:11 The Fight Turns 41:22 A Dangerous Warning 43:12 The Bout Ends 45:10 Unfinished Business 46:21 One Last Intermission 48:35 The Worst Pep Talk Possible 49:57 Ruby Tries Charm Again 52:18 Lola Mac Bunny Makes Her Move 53:37 Orlan’s Fear 55:07 The Escape Plan Pitch 56:27 Something Worse Is Coming 57:58 Promises and Apologies 01:00:11 Mac Prepares Himself 01:02:05 Break-Time Chaos 01:05:18 The Guards Stay Behind 01:07:45 Malk Reappears

    In this episode of Daggers and Drams: Deep Six, a rowdy actual play TTRPG / Dungeons and Dragons 5e podcast for adults....the party descends into the dangerous heart of The Cracks, where the shifting Night Market hides more than black-market charms, stolen relics, and questionable street food. Following the trail of Orlan Threetongue, the crew searches for the entrance to an illegal underground fighting pit known as The Rust Below. Ruby busks with her eerie bone flute, Stenny gets pickpocketed, Mac reluctantly gets pulled back toward his fighting past, and the party discovers that the entrance to the arena is hidden in the least dignified place imaginable. Beneath the market, the adventurers find a packed underground fight club watched over by Shadow Doves, gamblers, nobles, criminals, and the formidable Melina, highborn elf and ruler of the Rust Below. With Orlan’s name on the fight card, Mac enters the tournament under the unforgettable alias Mac Pissmist, setting the stage for blood, coin, grudges, and brutal D&D 5e arena combat. Expect Dungeons & Dragons 5e actual play, underground fight pits, rogue investigations, bardic inspiration, illegal betting, faction intrigue, the Umbral Consulate, and the glorious stupidity that only a tabletop RPG can provide.
