Ep. 1 - Sydney Amanuel on How Live TTRPG Storytelling Really Works
Saison 1 · Épisode 1
vendredi 27 février 2026 • Durée 01:17:28
Watch as a full video interview on YouTube
Welcome to the first episode of Narrative Damage - a podcast where some of your favourite authors gather together to roll dice, craft worlds and tell stories together through the medium of tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs)!
For our first guest, we are delighted to chat with the brilliant Sydney Amanuel. Sydney is an actor and designer from New York. While she is usually spotted in films and TV, she also appears on multiple TTRPG podcasts on The Glass Cannon Network where she plays various characters full of improv comedy, fantasy and fun.
Sydney tells us about how she sort of stumbled into the world of live TTRPGs and tells us about the avenues that these games give for storytelling. We talk about the many similarities between the writing process and roleplaying games, including how she crafts characters, worlds and more.

Plus, we talk about writing effective horror, and discuss why mystery fiction of all kinds is so popular.
