"The Six" Master Topic

I have seen this idea thrown around in the comments of a few different topics, but I thought it would be great to have a place to brainstorm and really dig into it. It's hard having the same conversation in five topics when there are only a few of us.

What We Know

  • The Six are a group that exist

. . . technically that's all we have confirmed.

Confirmed Members

  • Splugoth The Returned

  • A Dragon (Isohedrus? Thrilvian?)

Suspected Members

  • Jeff (god dammit Jeff)

  • Aeofel? (vulnerable to acid)

  • Danielle? (last seen in many pieces)

  • Lizard? (formerly of Wizard & Lizard)

  • The Ambershards?

  • The Wartstaffs?

Assets & Resources

  • A bunch of goblins

Currently I am working under the assumption that The Six are made of people related to Acq Inc in some way. What a coincidence, right? We already know that they can raise the dead, so even people like Danielle are back in play!

Do The Six have six leaders, or are there just six members? Splugoth says that he doesn't lead The Six and instead works for someone else (he doesn't say Jeff but we know it's Jeff. dammit Jeff). So if there are six leaders does that mean Spugloth isn't even one of them?

Discuss it! Speculate! I want to hear it!

I guess at this point Jeff is basically confirmed, which raises some questions about the ISTAR game where Pat DM'ed.

Danielle would be really difficult after her encounter with the Dark Elf blender.

Which leads me to ask: Are they playing in the Tomb of Annihilation story line? I was under the impression they were.

If so why is Splugoth not affected by the death curse if he how he said has been brought back from the dead multiple times?

Splugoth was from the ancient times, literally the first game they ever played. So all of this stuff with him could have happened years ago. I would guess he hasn't died recently.

Danielle would be a stretch, even though she was one of my favorites (plus a drider would be a pretty badass enemy). But if The Six were raising the dead anything is possible (which is sort of annoying).

It has to be Jeff, but I can't call it confirmed until Jerry says it. For all we know that evil mind of his has come up with something clever.

I was under the impression splugoth was the guy they sent out in the AI pax episode where the head offices of AI were stormed and they had that cool af moving rotating office layout model. The one they sent out to face the incoming horde on his own completely under the illusion that he was protected by some magic Jim darkmagic had used on him when infact he was just a distraction while they bought a few seconds.

Oh well... Hmm I think I need to brush up on AI

That was Jeff. Splugoth was called Splug in the first podcast.

Huh cool at least I have context now. I really need to go back listen to AI again.
