Episode notes

We could’ve made the smart choice.

We did not.

This week, Nella and Lucio are talking about the TTRPG decisions we knew were terrible and made anyway. From ignoring obvious red flags to trusting the WRONG person, we’re unpacking the bad character choices that somehow became some of our favorite stories.

Expect terrible judgment, questionable plans, consequences we absolutely saw coming, and at least one moment of “I knew this was a bad idea when I did it.”

Welcome to Narrative Damage. We’ve been victimized by our own decisions again.
