Sanity Damage - D&D Actual Play
The Sanity Damage podcast is a series of TTRPG campaigns set in a multiverse cooked up by Nathan Heard and his peers. Sanity Damage's first campaign, To Whom the Sea Belongs, follows the story of an unlikely team of motley scalawags and genteel nobles as they stumble into a mind-bending conspiracy that reaches far beyond their mortal world. In this campaign, the party wrestles with the moderate good and considerable evil that arises from colonialism, and they experience the vast and diverse oceanic cultures of the homebrew world of Nera’ohan. Join the party as their sanity slips away in the face of Lovecraftian horrors, and laugh along at all their piratey misadventures!
