163. Deal Breaker

[00:00:02] Speaker A: Hi, thank you for coming back. This is. [00:00:12] Speaker B: Hi. [00:00:13] Speaker C: Thank you for coming back. Thank you for coming back. This is your. Craig comes on with now recording, and you're like, thank you for not leaving. [00:00:34] Speaker A: Craig has abandonment issues because his family doesn't want him anymore. [00:00:41] Speaker D: Abandonment issues. Like, he is the abandoner. [00:00:45] Speaker A: Yeah. But now the tables turn and he doesn't have a place because he left first. And. Yeah. Anyways, Anyways, so. So I was just trying to beat Landon to it because I wanted to do it and I wasn't sure if he was going to try and do it. So anyways, here we are. It's your Sword of Dungeons and Dragons podcast. This is the Accidental Adventures. We're happy you're here, if you can't tell. And we have a question for you. I'm sure not for you, it's for us, but you can listen. [00:01:13] Speaker C: Yes. The letter question that I definitely thought of is, you know what? You guys are going to deal with mi's core. [00:01:22] Speaker A: I have a question. [00:01:24] Speaker C: Okay, hit us. Hit us with it. Hit us with it. [00:01:26] Speaker A: If your character could home brew a potion, any kind of potion, what would it be and why? [00:01:34] Speaker C: I like that a lot. I like that a lot. Who's the dmn? Oh. [00:01:41] Speaker E: I had a bad hiccup. So sorry. [00:01:46] Speaker A: You should the DM beat. [00:01:53] Speaker C: Zach. [00:01:56] Speaker D: Ergberg. [00:01:59] Speaker C: Ergberg. Okay. [00:02:01] Speaker E: Or how about. [00:02:03] Speaker C: Miscore it is, Madam Miscore it is. [00:02:07] Speaker E: I didn't mean to take that from. [00:02:08] Speaker C: We'll do Ergberg next time. It's. It's. We probably will. Let's start with raw, you know. No, no, hold on, hold on, hold on. I always start with Jackie, and it's so unfair. Let's start with I. Let's pick some random quality. Whoever's hair is the closest to a holiday themed color. Oh, that's Jackie. Jackie. Why don't you start us off? [00:02:33] Speaker E: Why do this to me? [00:02:35] Speaker C: It's friendship. That's what Friendship. [00:02:40] Speaker E: Okay. Home brew a potion. Oh, she would. I think she really doesn'. Like, what the heck? Oh, sometimes she doesn't understand people and what they say because of language barriers, so I think she would homebrew. And she's impatient, so I think she would home brew a potion that, like. I don't know how to say this in, like, player. In, like, character terms, but in player terms, like, stat terms. It would basically let you level up in learning a language, like, super fast. Like, it would give you, like, a super, super, super boost of, like. Oh, you want to learn insignia? [00:03:31] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:03:31] Speaker E: Here you Drink this. And now you have 100 hours of insignia. It's like. It's like Duolingo, but in a bottle. And it actually works. [00:03:40] Speaker C: Bottled language. [00:03:41] Speaker E: Yeah. [00:03:43] Speaker C: Yeah, but it's like. [00:03:44] Speaker E: It's not temporary. Like, it actually. It's not like you get tongues for a potion. It's like it. It gives you that. [00:03:52] Speaker C: Yeah, I like it. Micah. Also Micah. This is. This is so disconnected and random. I don't know what's making me say this. And you've gone through so many life changes that make you confident, not just getting married. But there's something I don't know. Ever since you sat down today, I just keep thinking you just seem more confident nowadays. And I like it. [00:04:14] Speaker A: Lighting. [00:04:16] Speaker E: It is really good lighting. [00:04:17] Speaker C: Michael, what's. What's your. Okay, there was that sincere compliment. [00:04:26] Speaker A: I appreciate. [00:04:27] Speaker C: No, no, Move on. No, no, we're done with it now. We're moving on. No, no. [00:04:32] Speaker A: I want something with a lucky feat. Like, I. Like. I haven't, like, fully thought it out, but I feel like Craig, if he could make a potion, would have to do with something with, like, luck. But I just can't figure out the twist of it. So you guys might have to come back to me, because I really don't know. It's. [00:04:59] Speaker D: The mechanic is that if you take it in the morning, one of your random. Like, any random check could be a 20. [00:05:12] Speaker E: For 24 hours. [00:05:15] Speaker D: Yeah, it's like. [00:05:16] Speaker A: You know what? No, no, I know. I know exactly what it would be. It's like, Greta or. No, no, Jackie. What's that one thing that you have with the maker where you can ask him questions and he answers? [00:05:32] Speaker E: Commune. Commune. [00:05:34] Speaker A: Okay, that one. But with. With, like, a random deity, like, you don't know who you're gonna get. [00:05:41] Speaker C: You're just calling gods. [00:05:46] Speaker D: That's the most correct thing I've ever heard. [00:05:48] Speaker A: You get. You're in trouble and you, like, use this. You use, like, you drink the potion and you become in tune with, like, a random deity that you're, like, calling on help, and you just don't know who's it gonna be? What's their relationship to the situation? That would be. [00:06:06] Speaker D: That would be so fun for, like, a barbarian or, like, a monk, like a martial class. That would be so fun. [00:06:16] Speaker A: Yes. [00:06:17] Speaker E: I love that. [00:06:20] Speaker C: Sorry. Every time I step away, I'm just trying to keep a kitten from destroying things. Well, she's not really a kitten anymore. Now this is just who she is. Let's hear from Grabby or Bras. Why did I say it with An R. That was weird. Anyway, moving on. [00:06:40] Speaker E: Multiple bras. [00:06:44] Speaker C: Don't point it out. We don't have to talk about it yet. [00:06:47] Speaker D: Like a bra monster. Anyway, Talks like a surfer. That's a great character. I'm gonna do that. [00:06:57] Speaker C: Was Greta's answer. What about bosses? [00:07:00] Speaker B: Hey, happiness potion just makes you feel happy. [00:07:05] Speaker C: Okay. [00:07:05] Speaker B: No matter what. [00:07:07] Speaker C: That's the saddest possible answer. Greta. [00:07:13] Speaker D: I think you can. I think she would make a potion that gives you advantage on, like, nature check. Nature checks. And specifically, like. Like plant identification checks. Like, I feel like Greta was like, trying to. In her time in. In the Hilal, she was like, trying to brew up like, a concoction that, like, made her an expert in herbs. [00:07:54] Speaker C: She's like, if I eat enough of them, I'll know them. [00:07:57] Speaker D: No, exactly. Yeah. That's kind of how it works, though. [00:08:01] Speaker C: They go in my throat enough, they'll be in my head. [00:08:05] Speaker A: Okay. [00:08:06] Speaker C: I dig it. That says 2 third level. Oh. Is in both people's. I'm with you now and then. For me. Score. This is gonna be really insidious. But I think her potion would be. I think it'd be like a highly soluble thing that doesn't have a lot of flavor to it so that you could just quietly dose people over years. And I think it would be an incremental mind weakening potion. So it made you susceptible to domination, but slowly. So that over time, as you drank it more and more and more and more and more, eventually you would be, like, fully obedient to her, but it would take years to realize what was going on. [00:08:52] Speaker A: That's terrifying. [00:08:54] Speaker C: Yeah, she sucks any who. On that fun note, let's play some D and D for my note taking. [00:09:01] Speaker A: Did boss ever go? [00:09:05] Speaker B: I did. Mine was just very quick. [00:09:08] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:09:08] Speaker C: His potion was Vicodin. So this is episode 163 of the Accidental Adventures. Deal breaker. [00:09:23] Speaker D: Okay. [00:09:25] Speaker C: M. So. Oh. [00:09:32] Speaker D: I cast protection on from good and evil on you right before the. We go into her shop and it lasts 10 minutes. Well, I'll text you the link. [00:09:46] Speaker C: Yeah, let's. Let's. Let's get into it a little bit. So first of all, can you guys hear the music? You know what? Actually, it's all for the better. I want to switch this song on mute. [00:09:58] Speaker E: It was a little. [00:09:59] Speaker C: Hold on, hold on. Micah, you remember to do your freaking thing. Dude. [00:10:06] Speaker A: That'S. [00:10:07] Speaker C: I don't mean this sarcastically or belittlingly. I'm so proud of you right now. That's awesome. [00:10:13] Speaker A: I've been thinking of it this whole session. Waiting for the moment. Okay. [00:10:16] Speaker C: I'm so freaking proud of you. Okay. I like, seriously. I hope that doesn't come off a littleingly. Seriously. That's awesome. So fun. Guys, you are in magic lane and you all are suited up and ready. It's weird because, I mean you're often walking around in armor and a number of people in porters. Plenty so are. But it's not long before people start noticing you and start wanting to talk to you and recognize you. Is there any particular thing you do to try to leave them to try to have them leave you alone while you're on magic lane or do you just proceed with your business? It's not long before a crowd is starting to form excited that the now increasingly world renowned fungi are in town. No. Complete silence. Not everybody wants. Now guys, slow down. [00:11:17] Speaker A: There's gonna be some sounds as we make taquitos, so. Or he makes taquitos. [00:11:24] Speaker C: Oh, I thought that was in character. And I was like, what? [00:11:27] Speaker A: I was like, Greg, there to be some sounds. Craig just like farts. He like just like. [00:11:32] Speaker C: Okay. [00:11:32] Speaker A: Releases all of the gas. [00:11:35] Speaker C: Release the Kraken. It's fine if there's not a response to this. You guys could just say nothing. But I, I, I honestly actually can't move the session forward if you guys don't say things back to what I say. This. It's the only for this way for this to work. [00:11:47] Speaker E: Ro is going to row. Is going to. [00:11:53] Speaker C: And she's going to. [00:11:55] Speaker E: She's gonna, as they're walking, she's like just like whistling, like acting like nonchalant. But as she's doing it, she's trying to distract people by casting prestidigitation in a different like maybe like a torch kind of. Or they see some sparkles somewhere else. Like as far away as she can from herself, which is like 10ft. But just trying to distract people so. [00:12:19] Speaker C: They can sneak by the parlor tricks. Do not distract growing crowd from world famous heroes and attract people towards you. As magic is being displayed. [00:12:26] Speaker E: Fire. [00:12:28] Speaker A: Craig is going to do pres. She's gonna. He's gonna do anti presidigitation. Yeah. [00:12:34] Speaker E: Make a stinky. [00:12:37] Speaker A: He's gonna make a. Because it's not actually from him. It is like magically created. He's going to release a fart that is. It is so vile. The crowd has to leave or like at least stunned and like stopped. [00:12:57] Speaker C: Micah, make a. Make a spell casting check. So make a roll and add your charisma modifier on it. Oh my goodness. [00:13:08] Speaker A: All right, so we're actually. We're at a solid 7 right now. [00:13:17] Speaker C: Do it. Advantage. [00:13:18] Speaker A: Okay. I want you to really used to making stinkies. [00:13:22] Speaker E: All right. [00:13:23] Speaker A: So now we're at a solid eight. [00:13:27] Speaker C: Okay. You don't make a super magically powerful stinky fart, but you are. First of all, you press digitate by farting. [00:13:35] Speaker D: It's just really loud and it rumbles. [00:13:38] Speaker C: With the armor in ample flies. And then you magically make the fart worse. So like the crowd is gathered around you and like the fun guys are here is the fun guys look at them. And then all of a sudden it's like crowding around you. Craig just goes and like rumbles to the armor. People, like, and there's like this awkward moment where nobody. [00:14:00] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:14:00] Speaker C: People are trying to. Famous hero Craig. Do you keep doing it? [00:14:09] Speaker A: Yeah, and he keeps doing. [00:14:12] Speaker C: Takes two or three minutes. But Craig farts and farts and farts while making eye contact with people. And slowly but surely even some insults thrown your way. The whole crowd disperses because it's just so awful. And they're also so disquieted by like, this is their meet the hero moment. And it's like so discomforting that this is how it's playing out and people are just disillusioned and slowly but surely the crowd is leaving you alone. People are still watching from a distance, but you successfully disperse them. You're gonna get additional XP for that at the end. Micah. And so the group is moving down magic lane and people are casting spells on themselves. What all is being prepped? [00:14:54] Speaker D: I cast protection from good and evil on Craigalicious. [00:14:59] Speaker C: Phenomenal. Is that concentration. [00:15:02] Speaker D: Let me check my note. [00:15:05] Speaker A: I wish I could have you guys out of my earbuds so that Luke could hear all this amazingness, but I can't do it. [00:15:12] Speaker B: Boz is pretty flat faced as he's like walking towards the shop. Yeah, it's something that needs to be done. You know, there's not like a joy or a relish in like doing it. I think the. I think the possibility of what could be weighs on him quite heavily. But he's just kind of like slowly touching parts of like his shoulders and like muttering things in like a druidic wild tongue. And you know, you know, as he's walking, like he casts like formidable foliage and like the twigs and like the branch. Anything like wildlife just like leaps onto him and covers him in like in a thick, like natural armor. He casts ob drate on himself and Craig as like the wilds of the mad prince kind of like, keep intentional disruptions of volition at bay. He casts freedom of movement on himself. Is like the wind catches each step that he takes. The scimitar that he just bought, and the silver starts to glow like a bright red that's kind of like, rumbles like a molten forge. If it's fresh off the forge, the silver glows red, and he just kind of walks in the state toward me. Score shop. [00:16:34] Speaker C: Everybody else there for Landon. Just doing poetry real fast. [00:16:38] Speaker E: No, that was incredible, Landon. [00:16:42] Speaker C: You know what inspiration is? Oh, thank you. Freaking take it, you nerd. That was amazing. [00:16:51] Speaker B: And I've marked off the spell slots. [00:16:54] Speaker C: You the best. [00:16:57] Speaker D: Br. [00:16:57] Speaker B: You're immune to being charmed. Asterisk, question mark. [00:17:02] Speaker C: Right? [00:17:02] Speaker B: And you have advantage if that can control wisdom saving throws. [00:17:08] Speaker A: Also, is it not advantage on charisma saving throws. [00:17:13] Speaker B: Charisma is heroes beast. Oh, wait, no. [00:17:15] Speaker C: Or it's the. [00:17:15] Speaker B: It's one or the other way around. One gives the other. But I'm not. I can't. [00:17:19] Speaker C: OB is obdurate is charisma. But. But, Craig, you have advantage on wisdom and charisma saving throws, which is good. [00:17:28] Speaker A: Heck, yeah. [00:17:29] Speaker D: Hey, Craig. Yeah, Craig, you also have. Wait. [00:17:43] Speaker B: Does the crowd start to disperse as they start to see, like, Boz ready himself for battle? [00:17:46] Speaker C: I was actually going to describe that in just a second, but I'll let Abby get her thing going, because I would actually, like. [00:17:50] Speaker B: Sorry. [00:17:51] Speaker C: No, no. [00:17:52] Speaker D: Do you want me to tell you about the spell, or do you already have it? [00:17:57] Speaker A: Well, I'm reading it. I couldn't find obdurate, but I can find protection from good and evil. [00:18:01] Speaker C: Obdurate's home. [00:18:03] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:18:07] Speaker D: I'm not sure if this applies in Craig's special situation, but I'll just remind. [00:18:16] Speaker C: Okay. [00:18:18] Speaker D: You know the. Right. [00:18:21] Speaker C: Okay, cool. [00:18:23] Speaker E: Row sparks on herself. And she just. She, like. Yeah, she. She, like, takes a little bit of bark out of her back, she carries around, and she, like, crushes it up as you, like, strum. She crushes it in strums. And as she does that, her skin just starts to kind of, like, tighten and ripple. And her screen. Her skin is already, like, green, but, like. And it has, like, that, you know, like, kind of tent and, like, look to it of, like, a plant, but it gets, like, coarser and harder. Oh, Jackie's sick and, like, more tree like than normal. And. And she casts bark skin on herself, which is concentration, and it lasts for an hour. And her AC is 16 now instead of 13. [00:19:18] Speaker C: That's amazing. Greta, what level did you cast? Protection from evil and good. [00:19:25] Speaker A: First level. [00:19:25] Speaker D: I didn't know I could upcast. [00:19:27] Speaker C: Amazing. Well, you can't, so I don't know why I asked that. You're concentrating on that then, right? [00:19:34] Speaker D: Yes. Before we go in, I'm just gonna. Greta's gonna, like. Is there a hand motion that, like. You know how Christians cross themselves. Is there an equivalent of that for iun the stars of St. Lynn? Right. It doesn't happen. Not to put you on the spot. [00:19:53] Speaker C: Why. But why shouldn't there be, though? [00:19:56] Speaker E: There's one for Salem. [00:19:57] Speaker C: I think. I think it would be subtle. I think it would just be this. I think it would be a finger to the head, a finger to the mouth. Like, literally, like, like, like. Like mind and truth. Right? [00:20:10] Speaker D: Yeah. So she's gonna do that and she's gonna. The same question. Gonna try and divine intervention. Craig, Packed away. [00:20:22] Speaker C: Oh, okay. Okay. Heavy. [00:20:26] Speaker D: You guys can't get excited every time because it's. [00:20:30] Speaker C: I know. I know, but I got it worked for you at all. Ever. [00:20:34] Speaker D: I know. 45, but. [00:20:40] Speaker C: Okay. [00:20:41] Speaker D: She's gonna also cast aid on the party member. [00:20:50] Speaker A: Well. [00:20:53] Speaker D: Wow, that's crazy. Yeah. No, she's gonna cast aid. So that means your. Each target's hit point maximum and current hit point increase by five. [00:21:08] Speaker A: Wow. [00:21:09] Speaker C: Dang. [00:21:10] Speaker D: So she'll cast it on three creatures. Yes. So Boz. Tello, Row. No, sorry. [00:21:17] Speaker A: Boss. [00:21:18] Speaker D: Boss. Craig, row. [00:21:20] Speaker C: Boss. Craig, row. So everybody's hit point max goes up by five. [00:21:24] Speaker E: For how long? [00:21:25] Speaker C: That's awesome, Abby. Eight hours. [00:21:29] Speaker D: Wow. [00:21:30] Speaker C: You know something else that's cool, Abby. That's the first time I've ever seen that spell cast in D D. Really? [00:21:37] Speaker E: Wow. [00:21:37] Speaker C: Yep. [00:21:38] Speaker D: Well. [00:21:39] Speaker C: Which is wild. [00:21:40] Speaker D: I'm trying to. I'm trying to enter my cleric era. I'm like, let's divine. You know, that was hilarious. [00:21:48] Speaker C: I'm trying to enter my cleric era, girl. That's funny. [00:21:52] Speaker D: After being a cleric for four years. [00:21:53] Speaker A: Question. [00:21:55] Speaker C: Yeah, but now, don't forget, don't forget. [00:21:59] Speaker B: If anybody makes a melee attack within the the first five rounds of combat, that's within 15ft of me, you get to add 3D4 fire damage to your attack if you hit. [00:22:09] Speaker A: Dang. [00:22:10] Speaker B: Okay, so do not forget to do that if you hit with a melee attack. [00:22:15] Speaker A: You said within how many rounds? [00:22:18] Speaker B: Five rounds. The first five rounds of combat, if you're within 15ft of me, you get plus 3D4 fire damage to your melee attack. Roll. [00:22:27] Speaker D: Roll. [00:22:30] Speaker C: Awesome. To move us back into narrative, phenomenal prep. [00:22:38] Speaker E: I was just going to remind everyone that they all have a greater healing potion on them. And that row has two revivify diamonds on her. On, like, on her. [00:22:48] Speaker D: You have a revivify diamond, boss. [00:22:50] Speaker E: So, like, those are things where it would have been reminded. [00:22:54] Speaker D: Landon, do you have a revivify diamond? Okay, well, I give you one because I have one. I have two, so I give you one. [00:23:02] Speaker A: Okay. [00:23:07] Speaker C: So the party. You know, Craig's farts are doing a job dispersing people for a while, but you can't help but gather people in the streets. I mean, you're. You're, you know, quickly becoming the Justice League, being attracted. And as you all are moving down the street, the spellcraft you all are engaging in is attracting even more people. And people starting to bustle. But then it starts clarifying a little bit. You all don't have to say anything. Tello's loading a crossbow bolt. Also, for the record, I hand Tello. [00:23:37] Speaker B: A bundle of silvered crossbow arrows. As we're all kind of, like, doing things. [00:23:42] Speaker C: You hand him the arrows. He looks at one. It's not subtle how dour Tello has become in the last year, how serious, especially in the last month, how all of you, how much of the joy has left you all recently, how much of it has been replaced by suffering and pain. And he has become so much more anxious. But as you hand him the bolt and the light glints off of the silver, there's this levity returning to him, especially as the Count's death is starting to set in. And you, like, he looks at the arrow and it's very subtle, boss, but he just looks up at you and smirks and then loads it into the crossbow. And. [00:24:21] Speaker B: And as I, As I hold, as I hang out to him, I say, if. If she bleeds, she dies. And I know that she bleeds. [00:24:29] Speaker C: And he looks back at you, and he just says, you know, I don't like to think of myself as a capable person. I like to stay pretty grounded. And he cocks back the crossbow and he goes, but I'm going to put the hag on the list of the things I've killed. And you guys keep walking down the street. And as you guys, like, loading up and casting spells, people are getting excited. But especially, especially Boz, as, like, the formidable foliage starts creeping up your body and as Craig, like, starts moving star splinter around, like, people are getting excited. But you also watch as, like, realization starts washing over people's faces and the kind of people you are around. As you get closer to Magic Lane, some people are just passing through, right? There's. There's through traffic but some people are the. Are the people who are magically inclined. And a lot of people are starting to give you guys space and starting to be bombarded by questions from the plug. Where are you guys going? Are you going to fight something? You know, yada. But like more people, it's. It's really only the idiots who are starting to hang around you now. And everybody else is giving you 30, 40, 50ft of room. And a lot of people are starting to break off. And some people are trying to get whispers. [00:25:31] Speaker B: I reach into my pockets and I grab a handful of gold and I throw it behind us into the street. [00:25:39] Speaker C: Okay, none of the people who are following you, but a handful of like impoverished and homeless people rush to the gold. [00:25:48] Speaker B: None of the people do. [00:25:50] Speaker C: Not one or two. But there's some fanatics about, okay, whoever. [00:25:55] Speaker E: Whoever's like, closest to Ro or whatever, like pe, not party members, but like people. She just like. She doesn't want to cause panic, but she leans over to anyone that's getting like, close or into her space and say, get as far away from here as you can and tell everyone you know too, as well. [00:26:14] Speaker C: Give me either a persuasion or an intimidation check. [00:26:17] Speaker B: At Advantage Row, as they're walking, the shadows in Dogoth's cloak pop out like, boss all of a sudden gets three extra shots. [00:26:26] Speaker D: Scary. [00:26:31] Speaker E: So you said intimidation or persuasion? They're both the same. [00:26:37] Speaker C: And I'm going to say go ahead and add a D. Add a D4 onto this roll from the cloak thing. Boz just said. [00:26:44] Speaker D: Awesome. That's crazy. [00:26:46] Speaker E: That's going to be a 26. [00:26:48] Speaker C: Jeez. Yeah. [00:26:49] Speaker E: And that's critical. [00:26:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:26:51] Speaker C: People are clinging to you like parasites and they just can't get enough. And some of these people, they might be willing to risk their lives to see what's coming. And then you all, defenders people trust, start making the real breadth of your power clear. And the fact that those stories they've heard, they're about to become real. And people are finally backing off you all. And you all watch as Magic Lane kind of clears out over at the bazaar. Big John reaches up and pulls the wooden barriers down around his shop. And people start closing things. You all watch as Ergberg stumbles out of the front of his shop, like, peeks through the block blinds and just like, close the blinds and shutters the door. And you all hear all from around town. And everybody's like shuttering things and closing things. And Magic Lane clears out and standing there looming compressed between the buildings ahead is the small, strangely obtusely fitting Madame Miscourt's shop, looming in a way it never has before. You all stand there before it, more powerful than you've ever been. But you can't help but feel that sense of unease as it looms. [00:28:29] Speaker D: Of. [00:28:29] Speaker C: Note as you walk up to it. The wooden barrel by the door is still there, but the monkey's not on it. See the shop up ahead? That compressed cottage construction just squeezed in between those buildings like it doesn't belong. What does the party do? [00:28:54] Speaker D: Oh. [00:28:55] Speaker A: Oh, I know what I do. I know what I do. Can I put my little eyeball? My little magicy, magicky little eyeball? No. Would she see that? Wait, I don't wanna. [00:29:10] Speaker B: Yes. [00:29:11] Speaker C: I wanna ruin. [00:29:12] Speaker A: Huh? [00:29:14] Speaker B: He has true sight. She can see all things invisible. [00:29:23] Speaker D: Yeah, we just opened the door. [00:29:24] Speaker A: It's a shop. [00:29:25] Speaker D: When we're walking into a shop. Yeah, no, we walk in, it's a shop. [00:29:29] Speaker E: Okay? Yeah, we don't need normal. [00:29:30] Speaker C: And as everyone kind of pauses for a second at the front, Greta taking a very confidence. I mean, with her confidence with hags. Greta walks up and puts a hand on the handle. And as the door opens up, you all look into Madame M's shop. I'm going to turn the battle cam on. I'll be right back. [00:29:58] Speaker D: What are you saying? [00:30:00] Speaker B: Have y' all forgotten the joke about the doors? Like Zachary? I'm not crazy, am I? You know what I'm talking about, right? [00:30:07] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. We have to think about this. The door. How do we open the door? Should we open the door? [00:30:13] Speaker B: Honestly, what kind of wood is the door made of? I think we should do a rock check on the door. Door before we open it. [00:30:20] Speaker E: I go in guns blazing. [00:30:22] Speaker D: Door. [00:30:22] Speaker C: Have we considered that the door might. [00:30:24] Speaker B: Be alive and cursed? What if it has feelings? [00:30:30] Speaker C: What if it opens out? [00:30:31] Speaker B: What if we try to open it and then we embarrass because we push instead of pull? [00:30:35] Speaker D: That's true. We should do like. [00:30:37] Speaker B: We don't want to embarrass ourselves before we fight. [00:30:40] Speaker E: Can you guys call the door that you guys promised to talk to? I feel like you guys haven't done. [00:30:46] Speaker C: That in a minute. Oh, my goodness. Is it seriously up and down? You gotta be kidding me with this. [00:30:52] Speaker D: Oh, no. [00:30:54] Speaker E: That is the weirdest battle I've ever seen. [00:30:57] Speaker B: I'm not scared by. Hey, teacher. It's Craig's soul that's on the line for that, not mine. You're just dooming him to a second plane of existence to punish him. [00:31:06] Speaker E: What are you talking about? [00:31:09] Speaker A: Hi, Zach. [00:31:10] Speaker E: What. [00:31:16] Speaker A: Y' all Ever tried mayonnaise and sriracha together? I think that's what. Madam, you score. [00:31:21] Speaker B: People used to eat mayonnaise and peanut butter together in the Depression in the South. [00:31:24] Speaker A: I hated that. Why did. [00:31:27] Speaker C: Oh, is the camera weird for you guys too? [00:31:29] Speaker E: No, I can see the place. Looks okay to me. Yeah, it looks okay to me. [00:31:33] Speaker B: Zach. [00:31:33] Speaker E: Weirdest battle map ever. [00:31:35] Speaker C: No, it's gone now. [00:31:38] Speaker B: It's flipped weirdly. [00:31:39] Speaker E: Now it's gone and now it's like. [00:31:42] Speaker B: A weird up and down, but it doesn't fit the ratio of the. Of the screen very well. [00:31:46] Speaker E: It was good. [00:31:47] Speaker B: That's perfect. [00:31:48] Speaker A: That's good listener. That was my. [00:31:51] Speaker B: A little bit more. [00:31:52] Speaker C: I cannot possibly stress enough how hard it is to work this. [00:31:57] Speaker E: What does that say? Total door darkness. Total darkness. [00:32:04] Speaker A: Words. [00:32:05] Speaker E: Wait, are we supposed to see that other part? [00:32:07] Speaker C: It doesn't matter, actually. [00:32:09] Speaker E: Okay. [00:32:10] Speaker C: All right. [00:32:12] Speaker E: Is that the door? [00:32:13] Speaker C: This is the weirdest. This is the weirdest battle map I've ever drawn. [00:32:16] Speaker E: Is that the door? [00:32:18] Speaker C: Well, if you'll give me a second as the dm, I'll actually tell you everything that's. [00:32:21] Speaker E: You don't get a second. [00:32:25] Speaker C: So I'll actually just tell you. You don't even have to request it. Let me put. I'm requesting the other armored has to go. Okay, so as you all approach, You all, you all open up the door to Madame Miscore's shop as it has ever been. Let me move this back to here. Yes, Inside, where the door swings open. [00:32:57] Speaker A: Oh my gosh. [00:32:59] Speaker C: It swings heavily but freely inward, clearly unlocked through to the claustrophobic, dusty shop of bizarre eccentricities and cluttered mysteries. But it now feels colder than it ever was before. The towering shells of bedraggled boutique rise like walls of a compl. Compressed fortress at either side to the narrow entrance, looming over the tight path of the floor, almost like they lean inward just slightly, like they could fall over at any second. The items and objects which choke the peripheries of your vision to every side, from the seeming knick knacks to objects which appear to be invaluable reliquaries of long forgotten orders. They're everywhere, just as you've remembered them. Forgotten lore whispers silently from every nook and cranny. And the still soundlessness speaks long tragedies. Dust cakes over the broken spines of listlessly piled tomes while wax rapidly cools and splattered crap patterns across the dark wood of the gray floor. Those two floating chandeliers just rotating 15ft above the ground, providing dim light all around the shop is shrouded in nauseating detail, a saccharine cornucopia of grim specificity for the starving eye, satiating no hunger as sight devours evermore, only insinuating another tantalizing, another tantalization under every object which would prove all the worst for having been unraveled into another hanging thread. Desultory objects catch the wandering gaze at every glance. A shapely vial of clear liquid laced with a thin silvery corona of distilled salt along its circular base with a peeling label of ancient paper speaks messily of gathered tears and a disorder sylvan script, a severed noose loosely hangs from a high shelf stained darkly with the ancient liquid iron of an unfortunate soul. The reflected glint of sun bleached bone pokes out from beneath a russet leather bag, itself bound in a crackling cord that loosely ties together to hide its uncertain contents. All The While those two massive metal chandeliers, each no less than 5ft in diameter, rotate slowly. The only visibility for the dusk lit store, other than the light flooding in behind you from the cold day, comes from the hundreds of tiny candles flickering weekly with dim light overhead. The only warmth in the shop from their distant burning like stars in a night sky, would surely consume every warmth most settling of all in the dim light of the shop. The shelves rise in a disappearing veil of pitch shade, as though the shop possessed no ceiling and instead gave way to an insatiable abyss above. One must assume that there is a roof somewhere just above, but the merciless interior leaves you wandering to the back of the shop is likewise devoured in darkness, begging the question if it ends at all, or if it just goes on and on just like you've always seen it. So there's the shadowy darkness on the map all the way at the back of the shop. Doesn't matter. I'm really proud of the way that came out. I had to put ink down and then blotch a paper towel to make the shadow fade. I think it came out. [00:36:43] Speaker B: It's really good. I like it. It looks great. Good battle map. [00:36:46] Speaker C: Zach at the. Thank you. It's a weird battle map. [00:36:49] Speaker E: There's so little. [00:36:50] Speaker C: At the opposite end of the shot, Miscore sits calmly, a diminutive figure huddled before the floor lying table. The secret of her true size, as you all well know it, held with. [00:37:05] Speaker A: Oh. [00:37:06] Speaker C: Oh, my stomach just turned. Held within the obvious veneer of her vague guise as a meek woman in drab tattered cloths, dressed more honestly by the shadow that drips from the tall walls all around her, she's barely visible against the shadow covering the haunting abode. A silhouette of a person more honestly depicted in the darkness than she ever was when exposed by light. And this is her, the D20, representing her on the map. As you all open the door from the opposite side of the shop, she just says. [00:37:46] Speaker A: Fun. [00:37:46] Speaker C: Guys, I wasn't expecting you. Please come in. Do you have my stone? [00:38:02] Speaker A: Well, I have a question. [00:38:10] Speaker C: Is this in character? Is this for the dm? Micah? [00:38:13] Speaker A: Oh, no, this is in character. [00:38:16] Speaker C: Excellent. Okay. She gets a. She gets a crooked smile on her mouth. You can barely see it under the hood. She says, of course. Greg, Kabir. [00:38:32] Speaker E: I make sure the door is shut. Yeah, I make sure it's shut. [00:38:35] Speaker C: Okay. As you all walk in, Ro, you go. And you start pushing the door backward. When you get about halfway through its travel, it leaves your hand and starts closing a little faster than you're pushing it, shutting itself. And it's got that. As it comes to, it makes this, and it resounds with this much harder impact than such a small door should be able to make. [00:38:59] Speaker A: Yes. [00:38:59] Speaker B: Can we take our shoes off? [00:39:04] Speaker C: She just doesn't pay the comment any mind. Boss, even though that's a really funny joke. [00:39:13] Speaker A: Let me just practice this. I know we got off on the wrong foot and stuff happened, things went down, you know, hair was given, things like that. Right. I just. Well, there's no way of avoiding this. And I know it's gonna do stuff and, like, go crazy and, you know, whatever. We're not getting you that rock. Okay. [00:39:50] Speaker C: This wide smile creeps out from under the brim. And as she rotates her face up slightly, you look at that old face and the eyes catch the slightest little bit of the room and they reflect like the eyes of a cat. And she just smiles and she says, that's a shame. Now, I don't know how I'll escape the bloodied one. But you know, Craig, for someone who just sits behind the scenes, plays with strings, and she plays her finger around in the air and does, like, a plucking motion. And when she does, Craig, one of the interstitial muscles around your ribs quivers and you falter to a knee for a second as you catch yourself. And she says, but that choice does mean I get to have a little fun today. Fun, Guys, as you come here to betray the honest agreement I made with you, you show the world your true character. So come, let's bathe ourselves in who you really are. And I need everyone in here to roll me. Initiative. [00:41:02] Speaker A: I'm gonna say. As she's saying this, Craig winces, and he, like, like, looks up at her, and. And his eyes are, like, intensified. [00:41:13] Speaker C: Excellent. [00:41:13] Speaker A: And, like, the light catches. Just, like, catches. He goes, our true, true character is we're not betraying for a stupid deal for a rock. And then he, like, stands up and, like, readies his weapon and whatever. [00:41:36] Speaker C: Excellent. Excellent. Everybody hit me with initiative. [00:41:41] Speaker E: I got a nine. [00:41:42] Speaker C: Oh, my goodness. Guys, we're doing this. [00:41:45] Speaker D: Oh, I got a. [00:41:49] Speaker B: Well, so it's just dexterity, right? [00:41:53] Speaker D: Yeah, I got a six. Hello gets a hello. [00:42:00] Speaker C: You got a six total. [00:42:01] Speaker D: Greta, you will. Yeah, I got a six. Teller got a seven. [00:42:07] Speaker B: You're adding the whole dexterity bonus, right? [00:42:10] Speaker D: Yep. I rolled a three. Teller rolled a three. I rolled a four. [00:42:15] Speaker C: Okay. [00:42:21] Speaker A: 15. [00:42:23] Speaker C: No, nice. Okay, 15. Pause, pause. [00:42:27] Speaker B: Rolled a 17. [00:42:31] Speaker C: Okay, that's good. Let's see what knee score got. [00:42:37] Speaker E: Worrisome. [00:42:38] Speaker C: Okay, give me a second here. I have two more things to write down, and then we're good. All right, give me one second. [00:42:49] Speaker A: Second. [00:42:49] Speaker C: I need to roll a couple more things. Okay. All right. And. [00:43:02] Speaker D: Oh. [00:43:02] Speaker C: Okay. All right. Unexpected. Okay, guys. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. This is crazy. All right, boss. What? Your deck? Yeah. [00:43:17] Speaker B: My dex is 20. [00:43:20] Speaker C: Holy. [00:43:20] Speaker A: Is there any way when he fell to his knee, he, like, brought upon the celestial. What's it called? It's the thing where the person. There's, like, another person helping you for, like, Guardian of Faith. [00:43:37] Speaker C: Isn't it the spell? [00:43:41] Speaker B: No. [00:43:41] Speaker C: No. [00:43:41] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:43:45] Speaker C: Are you asking me? You can cast a spell before Initiative goes. [00:43:49] Speaker A: Yeah, like, if that. Because I didn't want to do it when we first entered, but I didn't because I didn't feel like, hey, guys, we're fighting you. Huh? [00:43:58] Speaker C: You can do it on your turn. [00:44:00] Speaker A: Okay. [00:44:04] Speaker C: Yeah, we kind of. We kind of got initiative kicked off there, but that's totally fine. It's totally fine. What's Tello's dex? [00:44:12] Speaker D: Tello, His Dex or his Initiative? [00:44:17] Speaker C: Never mind. I remembered it, actually. He's plus four. Yeah. And then, Greta, you had a six. Yes, yes. Okay, initiatives down. Let's do this thing at the top of Initiative in the darkly lit interior. Oh, let's put some. Let's put some. Some pieces on the board. [00:44:40] Speaker E: Oh, yeah. [00:44:41] Speaker C: How's everybody lined up on the map? Where y' all at? So, for the record, each of these squares is five feet. You all have exactly ten feet each way, but it's five foot here and then two and a half feet either way. So it's like five and five. It's super cramped. There is just enough room for any of you to stand side by side with each other and you can move around each other. But you mean every time you move around another one of you. Okay, hold on, I'll clarify. Every time you move around one of each other, it's going to cause an extra five feet of movement to get by in that confined quarter. As long as you're going directly around. Right. If you front flip over somebody. I don't know but. And then. Or what did I. Oh, the other thing is like there is just enough room for you guys to stand side by side like this. You guys have just enough room. But if you do, melee attacks are at disadvantage. Okay. [00:45:42] Speaker E: If we melee attacks. [00:45:44] Speaker D: That last part again. [00:45:45] Speaker C: So, so, so, so if people be like this, if people in that shape and then one of these people makes a melee attack, that melee attacks at disadvantage because you're right next to each other. Now if you guys are like this. Not a problem. [00:46:01] Speaker D: Can you. Is that like if, if we are standing next to each other, we have a disadvantage on a melee attack against me. [00:46:09] Speaker C: Score against anyone and anything and anything. Anywhere and anyone. Because it's too cramped. [00:46:16] Speaker D: Just because it's too cramped. [00:46:18] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah. It's like standing shoulder to shoulder with someone and then trying to swing in baseball bat. [00:46:24] Speaker D: I. I understand. I was confused on the reason for that, but I get it now. All good. [00:46:28] Speaker C: Where are the party members at? [00:46:31] Speaker B: Boss is left handed. So what? He stands on the. If he stands on the left side of Craig, would he still have disadvantage? [00:46:40] Speaker C: Yeah. There's a bookshelf disturbingly close to you. It's really cramped in here. What's. What order are you guys in? [00:46:52] Speaker B: I assume Craig is first, right? [00:46:54] Speaker C: I mean it sounded like Craig was out. [00:46:55] Speaker E: Yeah. I would probably feel like Vaz is behind him. [00:47:00] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:47:03] Speaker C: Do I have that right? [00:47:04] Speaker E: I'll stand next to Greta for now. [00:47:07] Speaker D: If that looks good. Can you. [00:47:09] Speaker E: Greta's cool with that. Yeah. Cuz we're not meleeing anyone right now. [00:47:14] Speaker D: Can I put Ro. Is it okay if Tello's in front of us? [00:47:18] Speaker E: Go for it. [00:47:20] Speaker D: Dm. How. How do the mechanics with Tello shooting? Can he dart out from behind Boz and shoot? [00:47:25] Speaker C: He could. Yes, he could step to a side now. Getting hidden in here is going to be tough. [00:47:30] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:47:31] Speaker C: There is so much clutter. He could try. I have a DC set for that, but he could try. [00:47:38] Speaker D: Oh, rock on. [00:47:39] Speaker C: Is. Here's. Here's one note. This is a short, short, short, short, short party until it was tall. As long as Boz is not in front of him. He can shoot over anyone else. He can shoot over anyone else in the party. [00:47:53] Speaker D: So question. Can I put him behind. If I put him behind Row and Greta, can he still jump out, avoid Boz, and jump back? [00:48:06] Speaker C: No. Well, yes. Yeah, because he can shoot over you. [00:48:09] Speaker D: Okay. And he can shoot over Craig, Row and Greta. [00:48:13] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:48:14] Speaker D: Okay, so I want to put him behind Row and Greta. [00:48:16] Speaker E: And one last question. She's about 75ft from us. Correct? [00:48:23] Speaker C: 5, 10, 15. 20. 25, 30. 35, 40. 45, 50. 55, 60. 65, 70. 75, 80. 85, 90. [00:48:30] Speaker E: 90. Okay, good to know. [00:48:32] Speaker C: Now we'll talk for a second. Do you all want to be any further forward in the shop? [00:48:37] Speaker D: I would like to be within. [00:48:40] Speaker C: I'm gonna say you guys could be, like, 20ft further forward. [00:48:44] Speaker E: Let's do it. [00:48:44] Speaker C: Was it a long conversation? I assume you guys didn't sprint into the room. Okay. [00:48:48] Speaker E: No, we were walking as she was talking. [00:48:50] Speaker C: Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:48:52] Speaker D: We're walking and talking. [00:48:53] Speaker C: And then last question, and then we are kicking this thing off. You all, how do we feel about the spacing? [00:49:00] Speaker A: Good. [00:49:01] Speaker C: Going to be spread out. Want to be in a group. How do you want to be? [00:49:06] Speaker A: I mean, my goal is to be as close to her as I can be. So I can fight in melee, but I'll get there. [00:49:15] Speaker C: If you would you say I will. I'll offer you. I'll throw you this one bone. Would. Would you and Boz say that you all were both walking pretty steadily toward her, not slowing down, like, kind of coming right at her? [00:49:31] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:49:32] Speaker C: Would both of you guys say that? [00:49:33] Speaker D: Can I also follow? [00:49:36] Speaker C: Okay, I'll let you guys be 10ft closer. [00:49:40] Speaker B: Hey, Zach, you said that they're like floating can candles in the space. Is that true? [00:49:44] Speaker C: Yes. Candelabras. One right here, one right here. Got it. Got it. 15ft up. [00:49:52] Speaker E: Okay. Not to be that person, but can I be, like, a little to the right and tell a little to the left, or does that make. [00:49:57] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, okay, okay. Does everyone like where they are? [00:50:02] Speaker D: I'm pleased. [00:50:03] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:50:04] Speaker C: Okay. [00:50:05] Speaker A: What magic object is beside me? [00:50:08] Speaker C: Let's do that on your turn, Boz. Top of initiative. What are you doing? Let's go. She's. [00:50:14] Speaker B: She's ahead of us. Is it difficult to see her? [00:50:19] Speaker C: Well, here's what I'll say. Everything past here is like, you all are kind of in, like. I mean, it's. You all here are in, like, moody light, but it's not actually dim. Everything from Here back is dim light, and then from here back is total, total darkness. Right. So you can see her. She's shadowy, but it's not like I don't know where she is. It's just. It's dim light and then the darkness is a little unnatural. [00:50:53] Speaker B: Oz. Oh, I don't have any range weapons. That's fun. Is going to. I falsely paved my spells. Sorry. [00:51:06] Speaker C: This is wild. [00:51:09] Speaker B: What's the range on Ice Knife? I've never had to know ranges before. [00:51:15] Speaker A: What was the name of the spot? [00:51:18] Speaker B: Ice knife. 60ft. So that won't reach. [00:51:22] Speaker C: You are boss, you are currently 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 33, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55 away from her. [00:51:31] Speaker B: Okay, so I can cast Ice Knife. Yeah, I'll do that. I'll cast Ice Knife at her at the. At the. I'll do it at the second level. [00:51:45] Speaker C: Okay. Okay. Ice Knife at the second level. What saving throw is that for me? [00:51:50] Speaker B: It's a range spell attack. So I have to throw. I have to attack her. [00:51:56] Speaker C: Abby, just from like a lore standpoint, I'm not trying to pat myself on the back, but the Vithly Arcanomicon is one of the coolest documents I've ever made. It's so sick. And I like what happened with your subclass in the end, but it's just such a cool document. [00:52:09] Speaker D: Yeah, I do miss those. [00:52:12] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:52:15] Speaker C: So kind of hitting that for no reason. [00:52:18] Speaker A: Yes. [00:52:18] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. You can do that anytime. Get him, dude. So, boss, 43 messages in the chat. [00:52:24] Speaker B: He rolls a. He rolls a 22 on ice knife. [00:52:28] Speaker C: 22. [00:52:29] Speaker D: Rock on. [00:52:31] Speaker A: Let's go. [00:52:35] Speaker C: Boss, what does Ice Knife look like? [00:52:37] Speaker B: Ice Knife looks like a long piece of ice that's sharp, kind of like a knife. And it flies out of the fire, encircling him and everybody, which is weird, but it flies out and then. [00:52:55] Speaker C: It. [00:52:55] Speaker B: Hits her and explodes in like a array of spiky ice things. So it. It deals. [00:53:03] Speaker C: Well, boss, from where you stand, you evoke this golden fire from. From all around you, licking up. It's like catching heat on things but not burning them. And from where it is, some of the gas aerosolizes and fires forward in this icy spike that flies at her. And as it flies at her, it just. It goes in the front of her and just disappears. And as it flies into her, she goes. It doesn't seem to have landed with anything. Anything else with. Your turn. [00:53:42] Speaker B: My bonus action. Vicious mockery her. And I'm gonna say, I don't know. I'm sick brain. I Can't I say something really poignant and striking? And she has to make a wisdom saving throw. [00:54:05] Speaker C: Yes. Where are you unleashing that string of insults for creature? You can see within range. Where you at? Where are you aiming those insults? [00:54:14] Speaker B: I am aiming those insults. Can I look up after I hit her? And I want to look it up into the ceiling. And I want. And I want to see. Actually, instead of. Instead of doing that. Instead of doing that, boss would not just cast another spell thing that he wasted a spell slot on. [00:54:32] Speaker C: Okay. [00:54:33] Speaker B: I would like to look and try to see if I can discern where she really is. [00:54:41] Speaker C: Give me a perception check. [00:54:43] Speaker A: Okay. [00:54:47] Speaker B: Well, it's not super great. That is a 14. [00:54:55] Speaker C: Wait, I'm using my per diem. [00:54:56] Speaker B: I'm using my per diem. I'm using my per diem. That is a 17. [00:55:03] Speaker C: In a moment of. As your endocrine start kissing system starts kicking up and adrenaline starting to pop. Pump your body. You feel your heart rate. The heart starting to build up in your ears. You look around the shop. You look back in the darkness, you dart your eyes upward. All you see is black shadow and claustrophobic shop. [00:55:28] Speaker B: All right, that's my turn. [00:55:31] Speaker C: Okay. All right. So that means that it is a certain special individual's turn. Let's. Let's start out with the big guns, shall we? Why doesn't everybody roll me? Guys, I'm feeling bad. Why doesn't everybody roll me? Why does everybody make me a constitution saving throw? [00:56:11] Speaker A: You have advantage. [00:56:14] Speaker D: Do we? [00:56:15] Speaker E: Who does? [00:56:16] Speaker B: Why do we have advantage? [00:56:17] Speaker E: Why do we have advantage? [00:56:19] Speaker A: Just making sure. This is incorrect. This is. [00:56:21] Speaker C: Yeah, I don't think that's correct. [00:56:25] Speaker A: I think they have a plus one. [00:56:29] Speaker C: But I could be wrong. I don't think it's advantage, but I could be wrong. [00:56:37] Speaker B: I got a dirty 20 if it's plus one, which is crazy because I have a plus one too. [00:56:41] Speaker C: On my consent. [00:56:44] Speaker A: I lost. [00:56:45] Speaker B: No, never mind. It's a 19. [00:56:47] Speaker A: I have a plus zero regular. [00:56:51] Speaker C: What'd you say, Micah? [00:56:53] Speaker A: Just do everything regular. I'm trying to find. I did think this through, and I did the research, but is this. Is this one? [00:57:02] Speaker B: Oh, then I got a good. [00:57:07] Speaker C: Okay, I know, I know. Everyone gets a plus one from Micah's aura effect. So everyone gets a plus one on that saving throw. Got you, Micah. Let me know if there's something else I don't know about. So everyone plus one. Boss, that was a 20. What was everyone else's? [00:57:21] Speaker E: 17 for row. [00:57:24] Speaker D: Okay, 19 for Greta. Oh, not 20 for Tello. Which totals out the a 21 for Tello, but that was a nat 20. [00:57:39] Speaker B: Jumps down from the other side. [00:57:41] Speaker C: Craig, what'd you get? [00:57:44] Speaker A: I got a 14. [00:57:47] Speaker C: A 14? [00:57:49] Speaker D: Don't. [00:57:49] Speaker A: I have advantage. I have advantage from. [00:57:53] Speaker C: You have advantage on charisma and wisdom. Ro, since you and Craig got the same number, I need both of you to roll me a D20. And just tell me who got higher, because the whole point of this was not to pass a DC but to see who got the lowest. [00:58:11] Speaker E: Wait, I thought. [00:58:11] Speaker D: Wait. [00:58:12] Speaker A: Okay, wait, you said Constitution saving throw. [00:58:15] Speaker C: Yep. [00:58:16] Speaker A: Okay, then I have a six. Fifteen. I'm sorry. [00:58:19] Speaker C: Okay, don't worry. It's row 17. [00:58:22] Speaker E: I got a 17. [00:58:25] Speaker C: Oh, everybody dies. Everybody. Take those dice. Well, not every. [00:58:31] Speaker E: I rolled a 17. [00:58:33] Speaker C: Excellent. So what you're gonna do now is you're gonna pick up a D20, you're gonna lift it in your hand, you'll drop. [00:58:40] Speaker D: A 17. [00:58:42] Speaker C: Okay, anybody else want to shout out numbers? [00:58:46] Speaker A: It's 17. [00:58:47] Speaker D: No. [00:58:47] Speaker C: Craig got a 4. Row got a 7. [00:58:49] Speaker E: Craig got a b. I. Do we add the plus one or. [00:58:53] Speaker A: No. [00:58:54] Speaker C: Tell me the roll of your d20. What you get on a d? [00:58:56] Speaker E: I got a 17 again. I got a 17. [00:59:00] Speaker C: Craig, what you get? [00:59:05] Speaker A: Got a 17 again. God. [00:59:10] Speaker C: Roll a third time. What's happening? [00:59:17] Speaker E: I rolled a 14 this time. [00:59:19] Speaker A: Funny enough, the original roll is a 17, but plus 5 is gonna be 21. [00:59:26] Speaker C: We're not adding any modifiers on, which means that now I know that Craig had the lowest roll, so. Excellent. That determines it. Craig, wait. [00:59:34] Speaker B: No, no, no. [00:59:34] Speaker C: There is a buttery. It's okay. What's happening now is that Zach's just making a call, and now we're gonna move on, because this doesn't need to be where we live. So, Craig, from up above, you hear a muttering voice from somewhere up above you, and you feel this horrible tremor inside as one of you, any of you, whoever rolled lowest is targeted. And, Craig, you're gonna start by taking. Wait, hold on. Do I have the right number? No, I need a couple more. Oh, my bad, my bad. I was gonna roll D6s. They were D8s. So you take. Numbers are hard. That is. Wow, that's a lot of sevens. 21, 28. That's a crazy number of sevens. 35. [01:00:34] Speaker D: It's a sign. [01:00:36] Speaker C: 37. 41 points of necrotic damage. Craig, you take 41 points of necrotic damage, Then as that. As that damage rocks through you, right? As you feel that convulsing pain in your spine, you double forward and Craig just vomits blood. A pool of it. He just as the. As the vein pours through you and the varicose veins appear in your neck. And from where you vomit the pool of blood on the ground in front of you, Craig, you like it's. It's an incredible amount. You vomit like a gallon of blood until at some point it feels like the blood isn't yours. And as you push yourself back up on your feet, wiping the blood away from your beard where that pool of blood spreads out and touches the bookcases, you watch it shift and something in the blood moves. And just because it's been a while, I'll send it again in Lauren reference. But this elongated skin covered head hand pushes out of the blood and then another and long arms rise up and then antlers and a skull connected to what looks like a naked emaciated bovine neck before coming to an elongated torso and crawling out until it stands at 12ft tall is the Bazor Zalbaz, which crawls out of the blood and goes. And it enters initiative. Craig, it's your turn. What are you doing? [01:02:26] Speaker A: Well, he's right beside me, right? [01:02:29] Speaker C: He is actually. He's right in front of you. Yeah, he's right here. He's directly in front of you. [01:02:38] Speaker A: All right, so I am going to. Use my starting cards. [01:02:46] Speaker C: Got so much adrenaline right now. [01:02:51] Speaker A: There will be some blinding smite. But I'm gonna roll. Okay. I'm gonna be doing it for two. Both ts or both actions. [01:03:05] Speaker C: Okay. [01:03:08] Speaker A: No, guys, you won't believe this. That was a nep one. Oh X. [01:03:19] Speaker C: Oh, Krieg, Bob, Would you get on your second roll? [01:03:29] Speaker A: Craig rolling to. I'm sorry, what is my role? Attack roll is like roll to hit. [01:03:36] Speaker C: There should be a number next on your. On your character sheet next to your weapon there should be a plus number plus blank next to star splinter. [01:03:43] Speaker A: Right. With the text it's a proficiency bonus plus your strength. And then with the star splinter, it has like a plus one. Yes. [01:03:55] Speaker C: On top of that. But the number next to it should already have that in it. So star splinter 11 on 11 total. [01:04:02] Speaker A: So really like a 12. And then this is a 16. [01:04:07] Speaker C: 16 total. [01:04:11] Speaker A: So the first roll is a 12 because it's 1 plus 11 and the second roll is a 16. [01:04:22] Speaker C: Was the first one in nat one. [01:04:25] Speaker A: Does it stay in at one? [01:04:27] Speaker C: So that's a one way that's always worked. But the second roll is a 16 total. [01:04:32] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:04:33] Speaker C: Okay. And that's, that's with your proficiency and your strength and a plus One, Right. Okay, Craig, as you pull out star splinter, what does the NAT1 look like? [01:04:53] Speaker A: I'm gonna say that he was going to make a hit, but ended up just. Oh, sorry. I just pulled my earbuds out of my ear. [01:05:05] Speaker C: Oops. [01:05:06] Speaker A: He was around for a hit and just decided to go again. And, like, that took up his whole action. Was he was gonna go around head to hit, and then he was like, nope, I'm kind of nervous. And then went around the head again. [01:05:19] Speaker C: And then as the terror of vomiting up the bizorzal baz seizes you, you, like, stop with a flinch as you look into its eyes and you see just nothingness. And as you come around for a second hit, its massive, elongated hand, the shape of a human's, about the size of a bear, is ending in claws. With one too many knuckles. Just bats away the sword, and you do not land either strikes. You just missed with a 16. Let's see. Hold on. Give me a second here at. Huh? At the end of Craig's turn, Madam Miscor is going to use her legendary actions to do blood curdle. And since she has in her possession some of your blood, Greta, I need a charisma saving throw. [01:06:33] Speaker D: I think it was a different Greta that gave her that blood. [01:06:36] Speaker C: Oh, shoot, you're right. Dang it. There goes my plan. [01:06:42] Speaker D: I am going to use my pertum. [01:06:45] Speaker C: Okay. [01:06:51] Speaker D: A curve. [01:06:56] Speaker C: Oh. Oh. Get him, micah. [01:07:07] Speaker D: That's an 18. [01:07:09] Speaker C: Oh, an 18. [01:07:11] Speaker D: That was. [01:07:11] Speaker C: What'd you get on your PDM? [01:07:14] Speaker D: I got a three. [01:07:15] Speaker C: That was a good time to use that. It was DC16. You're gonna take half damage. [01:07:23] Speaker D: Oh, cool. [01:07:24] Speaker C: Which is good. 15. 21, 26, 32. Half of 32 is 18. [01:07:33] Speaker B: No. [01:07:34] Speaker C: Somebody help me out. It's half 32. 16, I'm gonna assume. [01:07:42] Speaker D: Remind me how temporary hit points. If I lose them, are they gone forever? Or if I get healed, do they come back? [01:07:49] Speaker E: Okay, and the heroes beast. It's different. It's your max. [01:07:52] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:07:52] Speaker B: These are temporary hit points. [01:07:54] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:07:55] Speaker B: As well as uses the same language. [01:07:57] Speaker C: Oh, yes, that's true. Both are hit point max. Okay, thank you, guys, for catching that. I missed that also. So 16 points of necrotic damage. As Greta, you just hear me Score's voice in your ear say, hey, babe, and you just, like, choke on your own blood for a second. And you feel your whole body pulse inside of you. And as the Sensation. Finger. Yes, 16. As the sensation of her finger stroking your brain moves across your scalp, you take 16 points of necrotic damage. The Blinding smite. Yes. [01:08:36] Speaker D: Huh. [01:08:37] Speaker C: What level is the blinding smite? It was just. It was just third level. [01:08:42] Speaker A: The blinding smite. [01:08:43] Speaker C: So, Craig, that. [01:08:44] Speaker A: What. [01:08:44] Speaker C: For the record, because you applied blinding smite, you're still concentrated on says the next time you hit. So you have not lost the spell. You're just concentrating it. It's still on your sword. As an important note. Okay, Ro, it's your turn. Which is you doing. [01:09:02] Speaker E: Oh, it's my turn. [01:09:04] Speaker A: Yay. [01:09:07] Speaker D: Okay. [01:09:09] Speaker E: Excuse me. Sorry. Okay. Black square thing is right here. [01:09:15] Speaker C: It's very big. [01:09:17] Speaker E: I'm just trying to figure out in this tiny space what I. [01:09:20] Speaker C: Let me see if I can't find something better to represent it. I mean, it is that big, but. [01:09:23] Speaker E: Yeah. [01:09:24] Speaker C: You guys, does it matter? Do you guys like the black square or do you like the. The Raycon case? [01:09:29] Speaker E: I like the black. [01:09:30] Speaker D: I like the square. Yeah. [01:09:32] Speaker C: Okay. Black square it is. Also. That is not an advertisement for Raycon. These earbuds have really disappointed. But please continue. [01:09:42] Speaker E: Okay, so just for my knowledge. So with Greta and Boz and Craig being in front of me, can I cast anything where I'm at or do I have to move to do so? [01:09:55] Speaker C: Depends on where you're trying to send it. [01:09:59] Speaker E: If I'm trying to send it to the Bazoral bath. [01:10:06] Speaker C: Okay, this is. You're here. This is Greta, Boss, Craig, if it wasn't 12ft tall, you couldn't. But it's so tall, you can. Because the thing is, like, boss is of kind. Kind of in the middle, but Craig's way down here, and the bazoral baz is way up here. So you. And because you're still so short, you still have line of sight up. Now that's for like line spells. Now you have line of sight if you're trying to do AOE as well. But if you're going for a cone, you're going to hit everybody in front of you. Otherwise you have line of sight you can cast. [01:10:41] Speaker E: Okay, let me. I'm just checking to see if what I want to do is a cone or a line. Is that. Okay? That's a sphere, and that's okay. Okay. [01:10:59] Speaker C: Also, just as a heads up, after row will be the bizorzal baz, and then after that is the tello. If anyone wants to be getting their tell. Not the tello Turn ready. The tello. The one who tells. [01:11:17] Speaker D: It. [01:11:17] Speaker E: Let me. Okay. Is this a. I'm so sorry. Okay, well, this. Okay, I think I can do this one and this one be fine. How. How far away is where we think me score is from us. [01:11:31] Speaker A: Five. [01:11:34] Speaker C: Yeah, the. The thing. [01:11:36] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:11:36] Speaker C: The thing that was not affected by the spell is right here, the image of her. [01:11:40] Speaker E: And that's more than 60ft. [01:11:42] Speaker C: Correct. From you, that is 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70. You also heard muttering from somewhere above you, from somewhere up in that darkness. [01:11:59] Speaker E: Okay, I'm. I'm going to. Okay, I know you're gonna yell at me. Okay, I'm gonna climb it. I'm going to. [01:12:18] Speaker C: I'm yelling at you. [01:12:19] Speaker E: I'm gonna. I am going to bring out the big guns first and hope that Maybe she is 60ft above me somehow now, as well as the Bazoral Baz being near me. And I'm going to cast Cry the old song. Where's my pencil? I'm gonna cast Cry the old song, which is 60. 60ft. Enemies in within 60ft. [01:12:45] Speaker C: Within 60ft of you. [01:12:47] Speaker E: Yeah, yeah, yeah. So. So that can be both her if she's in. In 60ft and him in the bazaar's all baths because he is 60ft. Must make a wisdom saving throw. And. Yeah, so, yeah, Wisdom saving throw and also crazy card allies. Know you guys were already immune to being frightened or charmed, but you're now resistant to psychic damage for the next hour, and you guys are going to gain. 18 temporary hit points each for the next hour as well. So y' all get another 18 hit points. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Temporary. Yeah, in an hour and 18, y'. [01:13:57] Speaker D: All. [01:13:57] Speaker E: Yeah, And y' all are resistant to psychic damage. [01:14:00] Speaker A: Phenomenal, bro. [01:14:01] Speaker C: What kind of a saving throw? Charisma. [01:14:04] Speaker E: Wisdom. [01:14:05] Speaker C: Wisdom. Okay, Madame me score. I had to do some Pythagorean math, but Ro Madami score is just. Just in your range. [01:14:22] Speaker E: Oh. [01:14:24] Speaker C: However, she got a 24 on her saving throw, though, so that's okay. Well, but the bizarre Baz did not get a 24. [01:14:32] Speaker E: Does she get half on Cry, the old song or no? [01:14:36] Speaker C: What does it say in the spell? [01:14:37] Speaker E: Let me see. Make a wisdom Saving thrower. Take 78. Psychic damage. Confused by. It doesn't say. So I guess that means they just don't get any other. [01:14:48] Speaker C: Yeah. Saber suck, then. Savers. Okay, but the bizarre bass is about to take a ton of damage because you're. [01:14:53] Speaker E: What's your D.C. oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Where's my sheet? I don't remember things. [01:15:03] Speaker D: 18. [01:15:05] Speaker C: Oh, we got a 17. So he's gonna take all the damage. [01:15:08] Speaker E: Cool, cool, cool. [01:15:09] Speaker C: Nice. [01:15:10] Speaker E: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. And we need One more. Let me count it up. [01:15:21] Speaker D: Okay. [01:15:22] Speaker C: Okay. It'll be the Bizorzal bass next, and then Tella will be on deck. Man, Reagan drew the most disturbing thing. Shout out to Reagan. [01:15:38] Speaker E: That's gonna be 36 of psychic. [01:15:43] Speaker C: 36 damage. [01:15:48] Speaker E: Yes. [01:15:48] Speaker C: That might be your record, bro. I'm writing that down. [01:15:51] Speaker E: Maybe. I think I did 4. 48 one time with Shatter. Maybe. [01:15:54] Speaker C: Maybe. [01:15:55] Speaker E: No, maybe I didn't. [01:15:57] Speaker C: Maybe you did. I'll go back and check. I read it. [01:15:58] Speaker E: Who knows? [01:16:00] Speaker C: You said 36. [01:16:01] Speaker E: Yes, but 36 is pretty darn good for row, so. [01:16:05] Speaker C: Yeah, that's not bad. That's not bad. [01:16:08] Speaker E: And you don't. [01:16:09] Speaker C: Pretty fixed damage and everybody got healing. That's pretty amazing. [01:16:11] Speaker E: Exactly. Yeah. [01:16:11] Speaker A: So we're. Yeah. [01:16:13] Speaker E: And as a bonus action while I do that pencil again as a bonus action while I do that, I'm going to bartically inspire Craig because I feel like he needs. [01:16:30] Speaker C: Oh, heck yeah. [01:16:31] Speaker E: So you get a detail. [01:16:32] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:16:33] Speaker C: Craig is the litany of voices wash over you. You face this horrible monstrosity in front of you, but it speaks to something inside of you instead. You recall everything you have been and everything you've been called to be, and you are filled with courage. At the end of Rose Turn, Bizorzalzaz, the Bizorzal Baz is going to use its legendary actions and it is going to target. Oh, this is crazy. Good target Ro for what she just did. I need a wisdom saving throw as it puts its hands up on the shelves around you, turns to you and. [01:17:14] Speaker D: Just. [01:17:17] Speaker C: Makes a horrible sucking noise and sand starts pouring out of its empty eye sockets. [01:17:21] Speaker E: Sand? [01:17:23] Speaker C: Mhm. Remember when you wound it, sand comes out 20. [01:17:26] Speaker E: Not 20, not 20. And it's a wisdom saving throw. So it's a 22, but it is a. It is a naturally ro. [01:17:41] Speaker C: The bezorous Azaz targets you with insidious insight which would have made you suffer 3d6 psychic damage and being stunned for an entire round of combat. But instead you resist and are immune for the next 24 hours. So as you look back at him, what does it look like? As you completely repel this effect? [01:18:01] Speaker E: I just think of the time that I, like felt his presence in the shadow fell. And in my mind I'm like, I'm no longer that little spider. I became I'm. [01:18:14] Speaker C: Yeah. And in your head it makes it. [01:18:17] Speaker A: Yeah, look at it. [01:18:20] Speaker E: I just like stare into its hollow sockets. [01:18:23] Speaker C: And as you look into that hollow emptiness. [01:18:26] Speaker E: Immune. And what? Immune. [01:18:29] Speaker C: It doesn't affect you. You're immune to this. He can't use it on you again. As you stare into that hollow emptiness instead of anger or vitriol like you faced him before, you instead see just a deep sadness inside of him. Now it is the Bezorzalbaz's turn. So I can tell I made the stat blocks a wrong time ago because I wrote that in the wrong place. He'll attack Craig. Cause that's the only. That's who's in front of him. He should probably have reach, but I didn't give it to him. So he's gonna attack Craig. You know what, Micah? I've never done this before, but I've had a little whiskey and I'm feeling zesty. You can pick what the Bezora's will bez does. What does it use? Three cloud attacks on you or one claw attack and one gore attack? You tell me. [01:19:26] Speaker A: You're asking someone who has no idea what that is. [01:19:30] Speaker C: Yep. [01:19:30] Speaker A: So. [01:19:34] Speaker C: Three of the same or two different. [01:19:42] Speaker A: The first one, okay. [01:19:48] Speaker C: That was a net 20. [01:19:50] Speaker D: Oh. [01:19:51] Speaker C: Then the second one was terrible. What's your AC, Craig? [01:19:54] Speaker A: 21. [01:19:55] Speaker C: 21. Okay, so the second one is a 15 to hit. It misses. The first one was a nat 20, a 28 to hit. And then the third one's a nat one. So missing with two, catastrophically so with one. But the first he crits, so that is going to be. Guys, you know what the problem with rolling dice is? Every time you're done rolling them, there's math. Craig, from the first attack, you take 28 points of piercing damage. So okay, yeah, that was the crit. So from the first attack, I rolled kind of high too. As you like, stutter in that moment of surprise and confusion, you regather yourself from the confidence that Ro gave you. But it reaches down towards you. And as you reach up your shield and your sword to defend yourself, its hand bypasses those and it reaches its huge hand around your head, around your face, and as it palms you, it just digs its claws in and around your skull, scratches deeply into your scalp and pulls blood. What does it look like as the next? And as your head is laced with five deep gashes and blood now pours down your face. What does it look like as it misses its second attack? How do you defend yourself? Another huge paw comes around. I mean, it's a hand. [01:21:21] Speaker A: I'm gonna say that Craig just goes underneath his legs. [01:21:29] Speaker C: Okay. [01:21:29] Speaker A: And like kind of underneath him and like ends up behind him. Like so short. [01:21:36] Speaker C: Absolutely. For the sake of flavor. Except that I can't use that as your movement is all. But yes. As you dart beneath him and roll. I mean yeah, you can't move on someone else's turn, but absolutely. For the sake of flavor, you like roll under his legs and stand back up and he just misses you to the side. And then with the nat one, you know, in like a fit of your of fury, he scratches. He like, he like twists around and scrapes is where you were. But you anticipate that movement and move back to where you were around him. So he misses with both. Nice. Okay, it's Tello's turn. What's Tello doing? I mean, I'm gonna let him them and say shooting an arrow, but don't let me tell you. [01:22:22] Speaker D: I think I'm going to have him use Chromatic Orb. The zorzel bag. [01:22:36] Speaker C: Okay, sick. [01:22:41] Speaker A: Man. [01:22:42] Speaker D: And I wish I knew you he's going to choose. Well, he's going to roll. The hit first isn't arranged. Spell attack is what he's going to do. What? [01:22:54] Speaker C: Chromatic Orb. [01:22:55] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. Give me just a second. I'm doing something. [01:23:06] Speaker C: Guys, I love D so much. It's a real good game. [01:23:17] Speaker D: Okay, okay. Okay. Doing really good. So I'm rolling to hit the Bazoral Baths. [01:23:26] Speaker C: Yes. [01:23:26] Speaker D: With Chromatic Orb is what I'm doing. That will be a. Oh, that's an 18. [01:23:38] Speaker C: That will hit rock on Telehealth with a spell. Heck yeah. Also, I assume he's casting this at first level. [01:23:48] Speaker D: Yes, he is. [01:23:50] Speaker C: Okay, excellent. [01:23:55] Speaker D: So now I'm gonna roll. [01:23:58] Speaker C: As Tello sees Craig, for whom he so deeply cares in danger, he like momentarily stows the crossbow at his hip and pulls that little silver spindle of metal out. As he holds it and squeezes it, there's just this little of color, this tiny little 4 inch diameter. And as it flies into the chest of the absorptible passage and explodes with energy. What do we get on damage and what is the damage type? [01:24:27] Speaker D: Counting. Wait, that's not right. [01:24:30] Speaker C: It's 3D8. [01:24:32] Speaker D: Yeah, I'm doing my. That is going to be a 14 with I'm gonna say lightning. [01:24:46] Speaker C: 14 with lightning. Okay. The orb crackles with energy around the Bezorzal Bazin. It flinches backward and it stumbles into the shelf, knocking items off and he goes down 14 hit points. It looks like that damage did every bit as much to him as you would expect, so did not appear resistant to it. [01:25:10] Speaker D: Good little. Okay. [01:25:13] Speaker C: Phenomenal. Is Ella doing anything else? [01:25:15] Speaker D: Lightning. Lightning. [01:25:19] Speaker C: Tilo do anything else? [01:25:20] Speaker D: He's gonna try and bonus action. Hide. Just give it a shot. You know, you gotta shoot your shot. [01:25:25] Speaker C: Okay, so I'll go ahead and tell you right off the bat, he can. All right, There is enough clutter, and he can. It's a very high dc he needs to get two on stealth to hide in here, but it's possible he can, like, squeeze himself down behind a pile of boxes. [01:25:41] Speaker D: I'm gonna try it. [01:25:43] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:25:45] Speaker D: Time. That is. Oh, my God. That's a 27. [01:25:58] Speaker C: And Tello in this cram shop with nowhere to go. He, like, he. He sees this, like, this, like, crate to a side. He ducks down next to it, puts his arms up on a ship shelf behind him, grabs a cloak and pulls it down over him. [01:26:13] Speaker D: And, ah, he does. [01:26:15] Speaker C: Now, people don't forget he exists, but, you know, people know where he generally is, but, like, in the heat of combat, you kind of can't see him too well anymore. That's phenomenal. [01:26:25] Speaker D: Awesome. Thank you, dm. That is the rogue. [01:26:27] Speaker C: And a rogue. Yeah, Absolutely. Okay. Next up in initiative, Greta will be up, but before her, right from behind this bookcase, sleeping, sneaking up from a shadow, is a tiny little skeletal monkey. And it walks up. It walks up with these little blue flames in its eyes. Then it goes, and the whole thing sets on fire and it. And explodes. And as it does, bones spill out of it until they start forming back together, snapping into place, some of them shooting ligament out from the empty space of marrow. And as it grows up, it stands up instead. I'm gonna send a little image in lore in reference. Stands up as a bone golem. Oh, reference. An amalgam of skeletal pieces rises at the back of the room where the door is shut with a purple flame glowing in its chest. Many different faces of slain beings and creatures peeking out from. From the skulls and ribs and femurs and ligaments that make it up. And as the huge backward creature starts tumbling forward, it enters the fray. [01:27:38] Speaker E: Great. [01:27:39] Speaker C: I have 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30. It's going to stand right next to Boz. No idea. He's going to be. [01:27:48] Speaker A: No, that's. [01:27:49] Speaker C: And. [01:27:50] Speaker E: Huh. [01:27:52] Speaker C: With Rowan. That's. Excuse me. Tello. Tello. Tell. I never learned how to read. With Tello completely having hidden himself, it's gonna only see row in his sights. [01:28:02] Speaker D: Cool. [01:28:03] Speaker E: Cool. Love that. Love that for. [01:28:05] Speaker C: For everyone. [01:28:08] Speaker E: Love that for him. [01:28:08] Speaker C: Start off with. [01:28:09] Speaker E: I love that. [01:28:10] Speaker C: Start off with a couple claw attacks. What's your AC? [01:28:13] Speaker E: Row 16 now, at least. Oh, boggers. [01:28:21] Speaker C: Oh, no. But the second one was a 10, so the second one misses. So this huge clawed bone hand comes around you. What? How does the first one miss? Rough. [01:28:36] Speaker E: Turned around when she's. When she. When they heard it and all. And so when he comes up to her, she, like, she does like a. She just like, does a really deep squat and like, ducks as he comes around. [01:28:49] Speaker C: Phenomenal. And is the little short stack you are over your head and it scrapes along the bookshelf behind you, but then from underneath, it sees what you're doing. It uppercuts and the claws dig in. They catch on your armor, but they get your neck and your chin as they swipe upward. And you take great. [01:29:09] Speaker D: Great. [01:29:09] Speaker C: You're not resistant to any kinds of damage, right? Row. [01:29:14] Speaker E: Wait, no. Right, like, we didn't. Nothing with the hero feast was that it was just saving throws. [01:29:19] Speaker A: Right? [01:29:20] Speaker E: Or we didn't miss anything. [01:29:21] Speaker C: Right? [01:29:23] Speaker E: No. I can't be poison. [01:29:25] Speaker C: You take nine points of slashing damage and 10 points of necrotic damage. [01:29:31] Speaker E: Oh, boggers. Okay, Boggers. [01:29:36] Speaker C: I was listening to the Christmas one shot the other day, and Daniel talked about a Boggle, and I just. I relived Abby losing her mind. She screamed boggles. Boggles. I love Boggles. I want to be a boggle. That was true. [01:29:47] Speaker D: That happened, girl. [01:29:49] Speaker C: That moment's on recording. [01:29:52] Speaker D: Must not have been me. [01:29:57] Speaker C: Okay, that's the end of the bone Golem's turn. Greta, you're up. What are you doing, Greetard? [01:30:02] Speaker E: I'm back to my. My original hit points. [01:30:06] Speaker C: That's not. That's not a terrible outcome for all that. [01:30:08] Speaker A: No. [01:30:10] Speaker D: How is Craig? How are you looking on hit point? [01:30:14] Speaker C: Oh, my goodness. Guys, she is in her. Her. [01:30:18] Speaker E: Clara. Clara, if you will. [01:30:24] Speaker C: 120. Micah whispered. [01:30:26] Speaker D: Oh, okay. Landon, are you okay? [01:30:37] Speaker E: Oh, that thing. [01:30:38] Speaker A: I'm sitting at, like, about 50 points down. Sorry. [01:30:44] Speaker C: You can type your answers if you want to. [01:30:49] Speaker E: Yeah, okay. Was that the monkey's turn? [01:30:53] Speaker C: Uhhuh. [01:30:54] Speaker D: Okay, my sticky note. [01:30:58] Speaker C: They don't all have legendary actions. [01:31:00] Speaker D: Okay, well, then I am going to. Since everybody is good, I'm going to cast a level four guiding bolt at the Bone Month. [01:31:15] Speaker C: Okay. [01:31:16] Speaker D: Kind of a classic for me. Yeah, it's a personal classic. Can it still be a monkey, please? [01:31:23] Speaker E: Oh, no, I'm still calling it a monkey. [01:31:27] Speaker D: It is in my mind. [01:31:28] Speaker E: It's a. I mean, I know what it is, but. [01:31:32] Speaker D: That is. Does a 14 hit. [01:31:39] Speaker C: What? [01:31:41] Speaker A: No. [01:31:47] Speaker D: All right, well, I'm checking for little bony boys bonus actions. Nope, that's an action. [01:32:01] Speaker C: Bony. Did you just refer to bonus actions as bony boys? [01:32:05] Speaker D: Bony boys. All of my bonus actions do that. Can I take an action to do a perception check for me score. [01:32:16] Speaker C: If you had not already used yours Action. I'll call that a bonus action. Yeah, to look around. Yeah, yeah, it's a bonus action. Sorry. I'm with you now. I understand what you're saying. [01:32:24] Speaker D: Perception for me score. It's all right. That's pretty good. [01:32:29] Speaker C: You guys know something crazy. [01:32:31] Speaker D: Pretty good. It's a nine. [01:32:33] Speaker C: We can't call them per Captain Kecks anymore. [01:32:36] Speaker E: No, it's all be that. We're going to be in. We're going to be in Campaign 7 doing PK. [01:32:43] Speaker C: Greta, what you got on your roll? [01:32:45] Speaker D: It doesn't matter. [01:32:48] Speaker C: Yeah, but what you get so I can write it down. [01:32:50] Speaker D: It's a nine. [01:32:52] Speaker C: Okay, Greta. As you fire, the bolt of energy just goes over the creature's head. It doesn't even intentionally avoid. But as it makes the swiping motion at. At. At row. It un. Unwittingly ducks down and the bolt of energy flies into the shelf and showers broken items down behind. [01:33:08] Speaker D: It doesn't even have to try to avoid me. I get what you're saying. That is eyesight. [01:33:15] Speaker C: Did you make a. Did you make that check? [01:33:20] Speaker A: Yeah, I got a 10. So I cast I don't know on myself. [01:33:25] Speaker C: 10 is the D.C. remember to always try and report the rest. Rolls you make. [01:33:31] Speaker E: She did in the chat. [01:33:32] Speaker C: So you. It strikes you that the Bazoral bas might not be however. Okay, it strikes you that the bone golem is. [01:33:43] Speaker A: It is what? [01:33:43] Speaker C: Yes. So undead. I mean, in the book it says construct, but that doesn't make a lot of sense. So it's undead. [01:33:53] Speaker E: Okay, you guys, it can't hurt us. [01:33:56] Speaker C: Moving back up to the top of initiative. Boss will go after the layer action. Yeah, you're in her layer at the top of initiative. [01:34:10] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:34:12] Speaker C: Me score is going to trigger. You know what odds are evens for who? Oh, actually, no. Somebody. Somebody roll me a D20. If it's an odd number, I'll do the first one. If it's an even number, I'll do the second one. [01:34:28] Speaker E: I'll do it. [01:34:30] Speaker C: Let's make this interesting. [01:34:31] Speaker E: I got a 17. [01:34:34] Speaker C: Okay, we will do the odd numbered. There's only two layer actions, so this triggers harrowing horde. So now I want all. All four characters to roll me a D20. We're looking for whoever gets the lowest. So everybody roll me a D20. [01:34:53] Speaker D: I got an 18. Tello got an 11. [01:34:57] Speaker C: Okay. [01:34:57] Speaker B: I got an 11 as well. [01:35:01] Speaker C: Okay. [01:35:02] Speaker E: I got a 5. [01:35:05] Speaker C: That's gonna be rogue. Off of the shelf, that disconnected noose just lifts up into the air and it rushes toward Ro Ascor. Madam Miscor. Oh, I can't control my own brain anymore. As she telepathically controls an item from her hoard. She is going to use the hangman's tie on you. I need you to give me a dexterity saving throw. Roe. Okay. I can't believe we're here fighting M. This is crazy. [01:35:47] Speaker E: Okay. Is this. Well, okay, yeah, it's going to be. [01:35:53] Speaker C: A dexterity saving throw. [01:35:54] Speaker E: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going to use my per diem. [01:35:59] Speaker C: That's not a bad idea. [01:36:04] Speaker E: Okay, well, that wasn't a rule. It's a 10 with everything added. Yeah, yeah. [01:36:14] Speaker C: Where you are, a floating rope of coarse cords tied into a loose noose stained with the iron, red stains of an unfortunate person flies toward you. And where you aren't looking, you. You just see it. At the last moment, you start to jerk before the noose lands around your shoulders and then ties tight. And Ro is caught up by the neck by a floating noose that lifts her five feet off of the ground. She starts kicking as it chokes tightly around her. [01:36:52] Speaker E: Would I lose my concentration, I'm guessing. [01:36:55] Speaker C: Or no, not yet. Okay. Also, what are you concentrating on? [01:37:00] Speaker E: Bark skin. [01:37:03] Speaker C: You still have it. You have not lost concentration yet, actually, but you are restrained. [01:37:09] Speaker E: Okay? [01:37:09] Speaker C: You're grappled and restrained. You're five feet off of the ground, and next turn, you have to start your turn with a constitution saving throw, and then we'll talk about after that. [01:37:20] Speaker E: Okay, but no damage yet? [01:37:24] Speaker C: Nothing yet. But you're currently being choked by a noose. Love that top of initiative. Boss, what are you doing? [01:37:33] Speaker B: Can I go? [01:37:34] Speaker D: Wait, I have a question. [01:37:35] Speaker E: No, it doesn't. [01:37:36] Speaker C: Yes. [01:37:37] Speaker D: Sorry. [01:37:41] Speaker C: Get him. Boss. [01:37:46] Speaker B: I. I move over to row, and I cast freedom of movement on her. [01:37:54] Speaker C: Oh, Lantern. That's so freaking smart, dude. [01:37:59] Speaker E: Holy crap. [01:38:00] Speaker C: I totally forgot you had. Landon, I just. I just want to point out right now, the freedom of movement's not a bad spell. It's a good spell. Okay, but there has. I can't fathom there has ever been a D and D campaign campaign where that second or first level spell has mattered as much as you have made it matter in this campaign. No, it's a fourth level spell. [01:38:17] Speaker B: It's fourth level. I have no fourth level spell slots. [01:38:20] Speaker C: Never mind. Never mind. But still, I don't think anyone's ever used it the way you have. So as you squeeze by Greta and slap her. Oh, my goodness. The hangman's noose comes off of her neck, bro. You're no longer restrained as you just magically slip out of it. These vines grow up in push your neck out of it. You no longer need to make constitution saving throws to see whether or not you fall unconscious with the rope and you just land on the ground. That's phenomenal, Landon. It's crazy how huge that move was. That was killer, dude. Anything else with your turn? [01:38:52] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm going to. Bonus action. Vicious mockery. The bizorzal B. [01:38:57] Speaker C: Okay, you don't have to have a line. You're sick and tired. Is there anything? [01:39:03] Speaker B: No, I. I just. I just kind of grunt at him. But better than he does. [01:39:07] Speaker A: Sure. [01:39:07] Speaker B: Like I grunt better. [01:39:09] Speaker C: And he knows it, you bony sandy sad turd. But a grunt also works. What is he making you but you. [01:39:17] Speaker B: Bony sandy saved turd. And then he makes a. It's vicious mockery, right? It's like a wisdom save, I believe. [01:39:25] Speaker C: I think so. [01:39:26] Speaker B: My spell save is 19. [01:39:29] Speaker C: Yeah, I don't think he's. Oh, he got a 19. What does that mean? [01:39:34] Speaker B: Dad gone. That means he wins. [01:39:39] Speaker C: Does he suffer any effects? [01:39:40] Speaker B: That means nothing happens. No, no, nothing happens. [01:39:42] Speaker C: Okay. Okay. [01:39:44] Speaker D: Hey, what are you chewing on? [01:39:45] Speaker C: Oh, okay. [01:39:47] Speaker B: I was hungry. [01:39:48] Speaker C: I'm sorry, boss. The face you get back from it again is not defiant or hateful, but just sorrowful as it hates every moment of its existence more than you do. And next up in initiative. [01:40:02] Speaker E: So depressing. [01:40:03] Speaker C: Go to Madame Escort. Let's see how that goofy little goober is doing. [01:40:11] Speaker B: Sorry, I was muted. I want to use my movement to go back to be where I was next to Craig. [01:40:17] Speaker C: Yes. Okay. Got you right here. [01:40:19] Speaker B: Yeah, right there. [01:40:20] Speaker D: Okay. [01:40:22] Speaker C: Oh, I forgot. You have stupid high movement. Yeah, you have more than enough. Plus, that would have only been 20 anyway. Yeah. [01:40:27] Speaker E: Wait a minute. Freedom of movement now. Just out of. [01:40:32] Speaker B: Yes, you have freedom of movement now. [01:40:33] Speaker E: What does that mean? [01:40:35] Speaker B: It means you can no longer be restrained or grappled for magical or non magical constraints. [01:40:39] Speaker C: Magical effect on you. [01:40:41] Speaker E: She likes fell. She kind of grabbed onto boss's hand for a second and then got back up. [01:40:47] Speaker B: Yeah, I feel like I caught you. Like I didn't just fall. Like I like. I would have known they would have dropped out of it. So I like, I like, catch you and set you down and then I like, I like, pull you towards the bone. [01:40:57] Speaker C: Golem saves her out of the noose and then just moves his hands to the side and she just wham. To the floor. Just like, got you. [01:41:04] Speaker E: But I think she like. I think she like, like as. Just as a taste thing, like a flavor thing. She like kind of holds on to Boz and lets go as he walks away. Like a silent thank you hug thing. Happy's messages. [01:41:25] Speaker C: Okay. [01:41:27] Speaker B: Yeah, it lasts for an hour, but Jackie. And it's not concentration, so kind of phenomenal. [01:41:32] Speaker C: Also, Ro, we should have technically had you make some concentration checks for the attacks you received, but it wasn't a ton of damage. Just don't let me forget on the next turn, please. [01:41:40] Speaker A: Okay. [01:41:41] Speaker C: All right. My God. Okay. Enemy scores up. What is she going to do? [01:41:46] Speaker E: Let's see. [01:41:58] Speaker C: I mean, you guys came out swinging. Made it very clear this is a fight for her survival. So she'll fire off some. Some big guns. Depends on the check. Again. From somewhere, actually. First thing she's gonna do is she's gonna move. Okay. You hear scuttling in the darkness up above. And a couple objects fall down, but you can't tell where. And you hear some insidious whispering. And this intervenating dark line of hate. Where is the spell? Oh, I can't read. It's right in front of me. Fly. What? [01:42:57] Speaker E: What? [01:42:58] Speaker C: Okay. And a sphere of negative rippling energy flies downward here as she casts circle of death where you are. I need everyone to give me a constitution. Saving throw. [01:43:27] Speaker D: That is a 12 from Greta and. [01:43:32] Speaker A: A. [01:43:34] Speaker D: Oh my gosh. And a four from Tello. But Tell is hidden. But it doesn't matter. But if it matters, she's hidden. Just checking. I have to check. I have to check. [01:43:47] Speaker E: Is that I. I can't use a. [01:43:50] Speaker B: Bonus action right now, can I? [01:43:53] Speaker C: No, you could use a reaction, but not. [01:43:55] Speaker E: Can I use a reaction. [01:43:57] Speaker C: You can use a reaction. [01:44:00] Speaker E: It's okay. Do I tell you what I rolled first or do I need to. [01:44:06] Speaker C: Let's start with that. Let's start with that. [01:44:08] Speaker E: Okay. I rolled the 17. 17? These 17's on con saves. Man. I don't know what's going on. [01:44:15] Speaker C: Good. Good roll, Micah. That's a great roll. 21. 21. Micah, you will save and boss, you got the 20, right? [01:44:27] Speaker B: I did get a 20. Yes. [01:44:29] Speaker C: Okay, so Craig and Boz both save. So does the bizorzal, Baz, cuz it is also on them. [01:44:38] Speaker E: And so mean. She's so mean. [01:44:40] Speaker D: What about the. What about the. [01:44:43] Speaker C: The bone golem and everyone else fail. [01:44:46] Speaker E: I'd like to use a reaction though, so as she. [01:44:50] Speaker C: Okay. Does it change the spell going off. As well? [01:44:58] Speaker E: It changes the damage, but it. [01:45:04] Speaker C: Just. For you or for everybody else? If I understand Is this harmonic reconstruction? Yes, it's just for you. So let me go ahead and roll the damage. We'll move from there. Pause. What is your reaction? [01:45:18] Speaker B: She is to do. She has to do an intelligent save. [01:45:22] Speaker E: I can wait. I can divide the total reduced damage into equal parts, rounded down between myself and up to three allied creatures. [01:45:30] Speaker C: Okay, so. So, so, so I'm going to roll damage against everybody, right? I'll tell you guys the damage you receive, and then roe for the damage that you. You'll roll, you'll reduce, and then you'll figure out how you want to make that healing. So here's the damage everyone takes, and then Boz will do your thing, and then we'll do Rose thing. I. Wow, I rolled really low. That's kind of a bummer. But I guess I'm happy all my players are fine. 15. 20. With Circle of Death, everyone takes 23 points of necrotic damage as it ripples out all over all of you. So Craig and Boz, you'll both take half, which is. [01:46:09] Speaker D: Oh, 1123. [01:46:11] Speaker C: Yeah, 11. 1123 for everyone else. So 11 for the Bezor guys. Yes. [01:46:23] Speaker E: So it's actually just I make an ability check. [01:46:30] Speaker C: Oh, the bone golem's immune. It doesn't take any damage. Oh, that worked out nicely. Never mind. M Score is not cruel. She's a master planner and I totally meant to do that. [01:46:50] Speaker E: So do I do my thingamabob? [01:46:53] Speaker C: Sure, sure. Hit me with it. [01:46:59] Speaker E: Okay, it says I make an ability check with my spell casting modifier. So I rolled that, which would just be. Be just straight charisma added. Correct. So that's a dirty 20. [01:47:15] Speaker C: Nice. [01:47:16] Speaker E: So it says the DC of which is equal to 30 minus your bard level. So 30 minus my bard level is. [01:47:23] Speaker C: That's. You pass. That's 16. You got a 20. [01:47:26] Speaker E: Okay, so if I succeed, I reduce the amount of damage that I received by my bard level plus spellcasting modifier. [01:47:35] Speaker C: Fire, which means that's 20 for you. Okay, so you're going to take the. The 23. Reduce it by 20. So you only take three points of damage. Three. Okay, three points of damage. You did not take 23. You took three. [01:47:52] Speaker E: Wait. But it says I can divide the total of reduced damage between myself, but. [01:47:57] Speaker C: We'Re going to start. Well, okay, sure, sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you want three of that healing to be for you, then you took zero, and you could actually heal yourself up past that if you wanted. So you took three damage functionally, now you have 20 points of healing. That you could give to yourself or to someone else. [01:48:15] Speaker E: I like to give it. I'd like to split it between. Well, Greta 2 failed it. Greta and. [01:48:31] Speaker C: Tello. [01:48:31] Speaker D: Tello. Yeah. [01:48:34] Speaker E: I guess I'll split it between Greta and Tello. [01:48:37] Speaker C: Okay. 20 divided by three is like six for rounding down. So six. So all three of you guys are gonna take six healing. [01:48:49] Speaker D: Okay. [01:48:49] Speaker C: So row. [01:48:50] Speaker A: Thank you. [01:48:51] Speaker C: That was three. Three out of that. So you take three healing. [01:48:53] Speaker A: Okay. [01:48:54] Speaker C: And then Greta and Tella both take six. Phenomenal. [01:48:57] Speaker D: Ro. [01:48:58] Speaker C: As the wave of dark magic comes over you, you play soul mender really quickly and as you like. Or song splitter, whichever one you have. As you strum really quickly through the notes, old song mellifluously plays off of it. And it's like the magic around you disrupts and turns instead into golden healing. You literally, like, pull the magic apart and reconstruct it as it's pouring over you with your bardic expertise, which is amazing. Next up initiative is kriag. What do kriag do? [01:49:27] Speaker A: Okay. I don't know how laggy I am right now, but I feel kind of lag. [01:49:31] Speaker C: Not too bad. [01:49:34] Speaker A: First question is the bizorzal Baz, is he Fay? [01:49:42] Speaker C: You could make another check for it if you. [01:49:43] Speaker D: 1. [01:49:44] Speaker A: Well, no, this is just for I. You don't even have to answer. But for protection from evil and good, I'm protected from aberrations. Elementals. [01:49:56] Speaker C: He should have been. Okay, you do. Okay, then you know he's Fay. He should have been making his. His attacks at disadvantage. [01:50:01] Speaker D: I'm sorry. [01:50:04] Speaker A: Everyone will be making attacks at disadvantage because I know for a fact that hag is fade. Right? [01:50:11] Speaker C: Yes. Against you, not against everyone. [01:50:13] Speaker A: Yeah, against you. Yeah. Just against me. [01:50:15] Speaker C: But, hey, that's huge. That's huge. Also, Greta. What a good call, dude. [01:50:23] Speaker A: Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you so much. [01:50:26] Speaker C: Grapes. [01:50:28] Speaker D: So sorry, I didn't. Remember. [01:50:29] Speaker A: I am going to do Star Splinter again against the. The Zoro Baz. Here's my question. I. [01:50:39] Speaker C: On deck. [01:50:42] Speaker A: Yeah, but here's where I got myself confused a little bit with blinding smite, because I have such. I have an updated. I'm sorry. Updated. Divine smite at first level. Is it 3D8 that I. [01:51:01] Speaker C: Yes, yes. And isn't it confusing? [01:51:05] Speaker A: Isn't it? [01:51:05] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [01:51:07] Speaker A: So that's good to know. [01:51:09] Speaker C: Paladins aren't complicated, but that one thing about them is just like. Yeah, yeah. [01:51:16] Speaker A: Okay. Okay. So that is. [01:51:26] Speaker C: Pause. [01:51:26] Speaker A: Well, I'm sorry. [01:51:28] Speaker C: Did miscore ever do the intelligence saving throw thing? I was supposed to do for you? Do you want to do that? Okay, let. Let Craig take his turn and then we'll go back to that. I don't want to forget about your thing. So what were you saying, Micah? [01:51:45] Speaker A: I am going to. I'm gonna use my boon of sighted one and I'm gonna re roll a D2 20. However, I kind of want to take one of my vials of luck. Is it? I vial my bottled talent. Talent. Bottled talent. [01:52:16] Speaker C: And what are you wanting to do with that? [01:52:23] Speaker A: I want. I just. I just didn't want to miss this. Is this going to be a whole action or is it going to be just like a quick thing that I do? [01:52:30] Speaker C: When you drink this potion, you gain proficiency with one skill saving throw or tool of your choice. This isn't going to change your roll the hit? [01:52:37] Speaker A: No, it's not. [01:52:40] Speaker C: Okay, but you still want to drink it? [01:52:43] Speaker A: Yes. [01:52:43] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:52:44] Speaker D: Okay. [01:52:45] Speaker A: Is it going. [01:52:45] Speaker C: That's a bonus action. [01:52:46] Speaker A: Is it just a little. [01:52:48] Speaker C: It's a bonus action to give potions to yourself. That's our rule. [01:52:51] Speaker A: Okay. Okay, I'm gonna take it. [01:52:53] Speaker C: Craig pulls the cork off, downs it, and then takes his sword out and goes to swing. So. Interested where this is going? [01:52:59] Speaker A: I am gonna do constitution saving throws are gonna be my. My bonus thing. [01:53:05] Speaker C: Oh, Micah. So that you can maintain your spell. [01:53:09] Speaker A: Smart. [01:53:10] Speaker C: So just as an update, right now, Craig has proficiency in constitution saving throws, advantage on charisma and advantage on wisdom saving throws. That's crazy. Let's go, Craig. [01:53:20] Speaker A: You better not go after my intelligence or I'm screwed. [01:53:25] Speaker C: Guys, Micah came out. [01:53:28] Speaker A: I'm gonna re roll the attack rules because it just. So that is 17. [01:53:42] Speaker C: Micah 17 will just hit 20, so. [01:53:46] Speaker A: That would be 31. [01:53:52] Speaker C: Micah went from a 17 to a 31. That's crazy. Okay, Micah. So first one hits anyway. [01:53:59] Speaker A: I can use my bart against inspiration on that or. No, no, that one. [01:54:02] Speaker C: But the one need to because 17 hits. [01:54:07] Speaker A: 17 does. [01:54:08] Speaker C: Yeah, I said 17 just hits. Yeah, that's what I said. [01:54:10] Speaker A: Oh, heck yeah. Okay, never mind. Chill. [01:54:14] Speaker C: Also, I'm sorry. Can she apply party consideration to attack rolls? Am I wrong about that? Maybe you can. [01:54:18] Speaker E: I don't know. [01:54:19] Speaker A: Can you? [01:54:20] Speaker E: I'll let. [01:54:21] Speaker C: I'll let Jackie figure that out. But we'll move on. We'll move on. [01:54:25] Speaker A: Okay. And so this is. [01:54:26] Speaker C: Since this is regular it, your blinding smite's gonna gonna apply to your first attack because it's the next time you hit. So do the blinding spine on that one. And then your crit will be just the sword damage. [01:54:37] Speaker A: Dude. I don't know why it's so hard to hear. I. I have you all the way up, and I still can't hear very well. I don't know if my earphones are going out. [01:54:45] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, let's. Give me something with the audio. [01:54:49] Speaker A: Can you. Can you say that one more time? [01:54:51] Speaker D: Time. [01:54:52] Speaker C: Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Absolutely, absolutely. So you hit twice. Your first attack is going to use your blinding smite, because your smite gets used. If you're concentrating on it, it gets used on your next hit. So your first attack has your blinding smite. Your second attack is the crit, so it does not have the blinding smite. It's just your regular star splinter damage doubled. Also, Roe is on deck. [01:55:16] Speaker E: Okay. [01:55:17] Speaker B: Is the fire damage doubled as well? [01:55:20] Speaker C: Oh, add on the 3D4. Are we doing that, Micah? Yes, the 3D4 is all 64. Let's go. [01:55:25] Speaker B: 64. 64 on each attack. [01:55:30] Speaker C: 64 on the first one. 3. 4 on the second one. Holy cow. That's a lot of different. [01:55:35] Speaker E: Just so you guys know, for future reference, you can add the bardic inspiration to an ability. [01:55:42] Speaker A: Check. [01:55:42] Speaker E: Attack, attack roll, or saving throw. And you can wait until after you roll a D20 before deciding to use it. But you must decide before the DM says whether it succeeds or fails. [01:55:54] Speaker C: Okay? [01:55:54] Speaker A: Okay. [01:55:55] Speaker C: Sick. Thank you, Man. [01:56:02] Speaker A: So I have. So far. I have. Regular Star Splendor is 4. It's gonna be. It's 2D6, but I'm doing it twice. So it's 2D6 plus 12, which is for both. Just plus 12 total, because it's 6 and 6 as well. [01:56:21] Speaker C: Nice. [01:56:22] Speaker A: And then I. Am I doing. Am I able to do Divine Smite for both of the attacks or just one? [01:56:28] Speaker C: No, you can only pump it into one, sadly. [01:56:32] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:56:33] Speaker A: Okay, so. So we are doing. I'm doing it at the second level, so it'll be 4d8, and then I'll also do the 6d4. The fire. Oh, my gosh. [01:56:44] Speaker C: Hold on, Micah. I'm gonna give you one more variable. I'm so sorry. Give me your radiant damage separately. When you roll your radiant. Tell me that number on its own. Those are your. Those are your. Your smite numbers. When you do your divine smite, give me that number separately. [01:57:04] Speaker D: Okay. [01:57:09] Speaker A: It never gets easier. It never gets easier. I don't know. [01:57:14] Speaker C: Well, Micah, I think it just got harder. It's like what you're usually doing, but we put two new variables in. Oh, get him. [01:57:24] Speaker A: Hold on. I'm doing math. Noise now. [01:57:28] Speaker C: No, that's okay. That's okay. If anyone wants to narrate an emotion or a mental space or. [01:57:36] Speaker D: I'm just trying to frown less. Greta is not. Greta's probably scowling, got her teeth bared. But Abby is trying to frown less because I realize I frown a lot, but Greta's, like, hunched over with her teeth bare. [01:57:52] Speaker C: Abby, I think you're a great frowner. No, thanks, Abby. You're a frowner, but not a downer. [01:58:01] Speaker D: Thank you. Thank you. I'll be here on. [01:58:04] Speaker C: And I'm just a tiny little guy who gives you advice sometimes that you sometimes put in the abyss. [01:58:08] Speaker D: Sometimes. No, sometimes he goes into the abyss. [01:58:11] Speaker C: So does it go into the abyss? [01:58:14] Speaker A: Do you want me to leave it? Just the natural radiant damage without the add ons at all. [01:58:22] Speaker C: Well, tell me the radiant, then. Tell me everything else. [01:58:28] Speaker A: If I'm not mistaken, there's slashing and radiant damage. [01:58:32] Speaker C: Yes, but just give me the radiant number. [01:58:35] Speaker A: That would be. I rolled in five, so I guess that's ten. [01:58:42] Speaker C: Okay. All right, then you can give me everything else, right? Yeah. So then everything else. [01:58:52] Speaker A: All right. [01:58:56] Speaker C: I'll explain that in a second. [01:59:05] Speaker A: All right, so. [01:59:07] Speaker C: Oh, my gosh. [01:59:09] Speaker A: A second. [01:59:11] Speaker C: That's okay. Anything going through rose head space right now? [01:59:19] Speaker E: Yeah, she's looking up at the. At the fan. You said there was floating, like, lights, Chandeliers. [01:59:25] Speaker C: Yeah, there's chandeliers floating overhead. Right over here. Right over here. [01:59:30] Speaker E: Hello. Hello. Right over. How far up are they? [01:59:34] Speaker C: 15Ft up. And the darkness starts another 5ft past that. [01:59:39] Speaker A: Okay. [01:59:43] Speaker E: Okay. She's contemplating some things. She's contemplating some things. Doing some maths. I was gonna. [01:59:54] Speaker C: I was gonna do something. You guys don't. [02:00:04] Speaker D: Greta is. Really locked in, but I think, like, she's, like, extra uncomfortable. Not just because this is such an uncomfortable setting, but I think she feels a little weird about, like, fighting a hag. And she's remembering the first time that they came in and how, like, different things are from now and then. Just, like, in herself, her relationship, or her relationship with Hag, like, it's just all incredibly different. And I think for the days leading up to this, she was feeling, like, incredibly, like, heavy and kind of conflicted. But she knows what has to be done, so. [02:00:48] Speaker C: Absolutely, yes, Micah. [02:00:51] Speaker A: So do I have proficiency? See, with Star Splinter now? [02:00:56] Speaker C: Always have. [02:00:58] Speaker A: Okay, one second. So that's not 12. Wait, so if the natural roll. [02:01:13] Speaker C: The hit bonus. [02:01:15] Speaker A: My. My. My damage bonus. [02:01:18] Speaker C: Your profile efficiency is not a part of your damage bonus. [02:01:22] Speaker A: We're all good. [02:01:25] Speaker D: Then. [02:01:25] Speaker A: My total is 44 without the radiant. Jeez. [02:01:30] Speaker B: Did you roll. [02:01:31] Speaker A: Did you roll the fire damage without the radiant? I don't know what I'm gonna do with the radiant or what, what the plan is. [02:01:38] Speaker C: You already told it to me. Yeah, yeah, I'll explain that in a second. That's a lot of damage, Micah. So, Craig, what does it look like is you cut this thing open horribly twice, and then I'll do some explaining. [02:01:56] Speaker B: Did you. Did you roll the fire damage too? [02:01:59] Speaker A: I did, yeah. [02:02:00] Speaker C: She rolled all the D forged. [02:02:02] Speaker D: Okay. [02:02:03] Speaker A: Oh, I am going to actually. When I'm hitting it. I forgot. I'm also using the cosmic instrument. [02:02:15] Speaker C: Instrument, yeah. [02:02:16] Speaker A: Yes. So I can add. I can add damage again to that. I can use my. You may add an amount of damage equal to your charisma modifier. [02:02:34] Speaker C: Yes, correct. [02:02:35] Speaker A: Which really sad, because my charisma modifier right now is one. [02:02:40] Speaker C: Dude. Damage is damage. [02:02:43] Speaker A: So I'm adding one. That'll be two because they're both attacks. [02:02:50] Speaker C: Dude, two more damage. That is not nothing, broham. So two damage decides combat. [02:02:57] Speaker A: Sometimes am throwing. I honestly like, am just throwing the sword around as much as I can. I am purposefully, like knocking off stuff too. [02:03:16] Speaker C: On the wall, you do not deal 55 damage in a turn. You deal 75 damage because you find that that radiant damage you did dealt dealt a lot more damage than you thought it was supposed to. Turns out the Bezorzobaz might be vulnerable to radiant damage. And 75 might be Craig's new damage record. So I'm gonna write that down also, just as a reminder, Micah, I'm not telling you what to do. You live your dreams. You did totally just find out the animal or the creature you're fighting is vulnerable to radiant danger damage. And you do have some really high level divine smites you could pump in. But you live your dreams. Just pointing that out to you. So Craig is you deal 75 damage. You take your sword and you and you slash across it. It lifts up its hand to block the blow, and your sword just cuts some of the fingers off. It cuts this half of the hand away. And as the bottom half of those metacarpal bones in the figures to the floor, sand just starts pouring out of the Zorzalbas. It roars at you and takes a step forward with a lunging hand. As you come along with another huge swing star splinter just catches in its leg and it stops there for a second on the bone. Berzorzalbaz looks at you. And as you roar with power, there's another flare of golden light. And you. You Cut its leg off from below the femur and it falls to the ground with one leg on. On another side. And then a femur on a knee only on the left. The zorzalbaz is down to one leg. It now only has a movement of 10ft and you have bloodied it. [02:05:01] Speaker D: Oh, rock on. [02:05:03] Speaker C: 75 damage in a single turn. So not telling you what to do with your life, but if you wanted the puppet gigantic spell in the next one, who knows what kind of damage you get? All right, next up, Initiative. That was an incredible turn. Next up in the Initiative, we're going to go to. Ro. What are you doing? [02:05:23] Speaker E: Hey, it's me. [02:05:26] Speaker A: Okay. [02:05:30] Speaker E: Okay. I don't know if, like, if this is a check or if it's even possible. Possible, but like, when we were. I guess just clarification, when we are hearing me score, like, where does it feel like it's coming from? Like, just all around us. [02:05:47] Speaker C: Up above you. It's unclear where. [02:05:51] Speaker E: A little bit more to this side or a little bit more to this side is there. [02:05:53] Speaker C: Make a perception check for me, Ro. Check to be clear. This should be clear, but it feels like the magical darkness above you is like throwing her voice a little. [02:06:02] Speaker E: Okay. Oh, Boggers. [02:06:06] Speaker B: Why don't you do on the intelligence save, by the way, Zachary. [02:06:09] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. Oh, my goodness. Landon. Completely forgot. Thank you. I'll do that now. Still not very good. Fourteen bells. [02:06:29] Speaker B: Phenomenal damage. [02:06:31] Speaker C: Hey, great. That's the mad prince thing, right? [02:06:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [02:06:36] Speaker C: Excellent. [02:06:36] Speaker B: And so a little bit of green, wild energy sparks out from my eyes and goes to her, and she takes four psychic damage. [02:06:44] Speaker C: Somewhere in the darkness, there's a shuddering wince. [02:06:50] Speaker E: That's an 18 for person exception. [02:06:55] Speaker C: Row with an 18. You feel like it's coming slightly more from this half of the building. Yes. She falls dead from the ceiling. She only had two hit points. All right. Phenomenal. Okay. Okay. Ro, what are you doing? [02:07:15] Speaker E: Yeah. So you feel like sweat from that side. Okay, I am going to. I have to look at what? Okay, I have. I don't know where the is that I need. [02:07:34] Speaker C: The zorzal bass is up, but after that will be Tello, then the bone golem, then Greta. If we're trying to ready turns. [02:07:40] Speaker D: I'm so ready. I'm also. [02:07:47] Speaker E: I'm looking for the stats of something, but I can't. Like, for something I might want to turn into. No, no. Okay, Ro is going to. [02:08:05] Speaker A: Okay. [02:08:05] Speaker E: There's no way to know how far up it is. [02:08:12] Speaker C: Little stinky binky. [02:08:15] Speaker E: Is there a. Is there a Candelabra What? [02:08:21] Speaker C: Yes. [02:08:22] Speaker E: Oh, is there a candelabra, like, towards that side of the room or is the only one in the center? [02:08:27] Speaker C: And then there's. There is a candelabra right here, but not one over. [02:08:32] Speaker E: Sorry. I was literally pointing with my mouse. Like, you could see that had my mouse over where I was talking about. That was stupid. Like, but near beside the. Like on the other side of the bazaar. Baz. There's no light sources. [02:08:46] Speaker C: There's not? No. That's why it's so dark over there. [02:08:48] Speaker E: Yeah. Okay, then I am going. This lady. I want to. Maybe we could see her. But it's only 15ft above. That's a bad choice. [02:09:13] Speaker D: That's a bad choice. [02:09:14] Speaker E: I'm so sorry. Okay, Ro is gonna go. Rose. Gonna move up. [02:09:21] Speaker D: Just. [02:09:21] Speaker E: Oh, but that's gonna. Is that gonna be attack of opportunity if I move away from Monkey Man? [02:09:25] Speaker C: Yes. [02:09:26] Speaker D: Now. [02:09:27] Speaker E: Okay. I'm so sorry. [02:09:29] Speaker C: I'm sorry, Jackie, but what are we doing with our turn? I may have to move on soon. [02:09:32] Speaker E: Yeah. Okay, so you know what? I'm just gonna turn. I'm just gonna turn to Monkey man because. Because that. Because that's all I can do right now. And I'm going to cast shatter on him at the third level. [02:09:56] Speaker C: Okay, you are aware you're not gonna be able to cast it on him without casting it on Tello. [02:10:04] Speaker E: Literally. I'm gonna cast. I'm gonna. Thank you. I'm gonna cast a putt on him, and then as a bonus action with that, I'm gonna to hit him with my song Splitter. [02:10:22] Speaker C: Excellent. Okay, so what I'm. [02:10:24] Speaker B: What. [02:10:24] Speaker C: What am I saving Throw am I making? [02:10:30] Speaker E: With a soft whisper, you strike outward at a creature within range, dealing 1d6 slashing damage. I don't think it's a. Is it not. [02:10:40] Speaker C: Is this with your axe? [02:10:42] Speaker E: No, this is the. The spell. Cut. [02:10:46] Speaker C: Yes. No, this just. [02:10:47] Speaker E: Just happened. [02:10:48] Speaker C: It just happened. [02:10:50] Speaker E: So it's gonna be 3D6. [02:10:53] Speaker C: Dang, dude. And this is magical slashing. Yeah. Okay, so he just takes the damage. That's awesome. [02:11:01] Speaker E: That's gonna be eight points of seven points. Sorry. Of slashing damage. [02:11:06] Speaker C: Phenomenal. [02:11:07] Speaker A: And then. [02:11:08] Speaker E: Then as a bonus action, I'm gonna hit him with song Splitter hit him with the song. [02:11:15] Speaker D: But. [02:11:21] Speaker E: Which is plus five. No. Yeah. Plus five to hit, Right? [02:11:28] Speaker D: Yes. [02:11:28] Speaker E: Sorry, I forget how melee works. Oh, and do I get to use boss's thing? [02:11:34] Speaker C: Yes. [02:11:36] Speaker B: Only a melee attack, right? It's only a melee attack. [02:11:39] Speaker E: It is a melee attack. [02:11:40] Speaker C: It is. [02:11:40] Speaker E: I'm using Song splitter. I'm using the end of it. Yeah. Oh, but I don't think it's gonna hit because that's a 12. So does that hit? [02:11:55] Speaker C: 12 will not hit. [02:11:56] Speaker E: Yeah, I didn't think so. So. [02:11:58] Speaker C: So he bats away the strike, but. Sorry, one second. So he bats away the strike, but as you. As you play the chord aggressively, the cut still etches across the bones, and they are fragmented in damage. [02:12:22] Speaker D: Okay. [02:12:24] Speaker C: Okay. I assume that's your whole turn. [02:12:25] Speaker E: Yeah, I. Bonus action. [02:12:27] Speaker C: So goes to the bizorzal bass at the end of your turn. Actually, Madame Escore is going to use her legendary actions again, and she's going to target. [02:12:36] Speaker E: Did I need to do some kind of constitution thing for damage? Okay. [02:12:41] Speaker C: Did you take damage? [02:12:42] Speaker D: Well. [02:12:42] Speaker E: Well, no. You had reminded me. [02:12:44] Speaker D: I'm sorry. Not to be. [02:12:46] Speaker C: Next time you take damage. Next time you take damage. Y' all let me hold on. Okay, Understood. Let me know what you guys. You guys can message your feedback to the conversation in chat, and I'll continue with where we're going with this scenario. At the end of her turn, me score is going to. She's going to use her. One second. She's gonna use her legendary actions on. Who's being really problematic. She's not pleased with boss at the moment, so she's. Oh, no, she doesn't have. No, she only has Greta's blood. Yeah, she's gonna use blood curdle on Greta again Christmas Eve. Greta. Abby, I don't know what the less in here is. I don't know. It's probably to keep offering your blood to Hags. That's probably the lesson. [02:13:48] Speaker D: I left my dice at home, Landon. I mean, bought. I mean that. [02:13:53] Speaker C: You don't need dice for D and D. Oh, shoot. You do. Dang it. That got by me. That was supposed to be funny, not sassy. He might have come up sassy. Supposed to be fun. But if you want, I can roll for you. [02:14:09] Speaker D: Can you hear me? I'm rolling. [02:14:12] Speaker C: Oh, I thought you left your dice. [02:14:15] Speaker E: I think she was just saying that as a joke. [02:14:18] Speaker C: Oh, she's physically not had her dice so many times, I thought she was being serious. [02:14:23] Speaker D: How else would I roll all of the other rolls in the session? [02:14:25] Speaker C: I don't know. [02:14:27] Speaker A: How does a five try a five out for T? [02:14:31] Speaker C: You know, five's not gonna do it, buddy. Five's not gonna do it. If I'm not gonna do it. So that's going to. If you've got. If you've got a 60 foot range on your bite attack. You're gonna take another 86 of necrotic. [02:14:53] Speaker D: Oh, my gosh. [02:14:54] Speaker C: Ooh, that was kind of a high roll. No, actually it was pretty. Pretty medium. 15, 20, 21 points of necrotic damage as again, the blood inside of you is wrenched around in your veins and you double over coughing. You just hear her really happy laughter from above. Satiated cackling. [02:15:22] Speaker D: Now. [02:15:27] Speaker C: Now it's the bazoral bass's turn and it can't really attack anybody but Craig. And that's kind of not working out really well since it's at disadvantage. So now it's going to attack Craig with disadvantage. Those were awful rolls. Craigs with your AC again. [02:15:48] Speaker A: It's a 21. [02:15:50] Speaker C: Yeah. Okay, miss, let's see with the second one. Okay, we're gonna miss with the second one. And oh, Craig, the disadvantage saved you from another crit. We're gonna hit with the third, but only with one of the three. That's phenomenal. It missed now with two and it didn't crit. [02:16:12] Speaker D: I would like to tell it would like to use a reaction. [02:16:15] Speaker C: Huh? [02:16:17] Speaker D: He would like to cast silvery barbs. [02:16:24] Speaker C: Televised silvery barbs. [02:16:26] Speaker D: I gave it to him. [02:16:28] Speaker C: Okay. [02:16:30] Speaker B: Do Rose have a spell? [02:16:33] Speaker C: Yes. Well, he's an arcane caster. He's an arcane trickster, so he probably does because it's a wizard spell. Yes. People use it for this combat. And if I've approved it in the past, let me know. It is a standard 5e spell. So you've done nothing wrong. Completely. To your knowledge, you had no way of knowing this? I hate that spell. It's. No, no, no, no, no. You've done nothing wrong. You could not have possibly known. I think it's the single most broken mechanic in all of dnd and I'm not even kidding. It's a low level spell that can rewrite almost any future ability. You're not even using it that badly here. But its power is. Its incredible. For no cost. It's the least balanced thing I've ever seen in the game to the point that I won't give it to an NPC or an enemy. Now, that being said, that being said, you couldn't have possibly known, so I didn't tell you. You've done nothing wrong. We'll use it today. Let's talk about it in the future. I hate that spell. But. But no, no, Abby, tonight, use that spell every single time you want to because I didn't tell you any different. Let's do this. [02:17:34] Speaker B: I. [02:17:34] Speaker C: It just works right there's. No save. It just happens. [02:17:38] Speaker D: Yeah. The triggering creature must re roll a D20 and use the roller low. [02:17:41] Speaker C: Right, right, right, right, right, right. Yeah. Giving imposing disadvantage on a creature with no save automatically first level spell. Is that correct? Yeah, guys, they were doing crack cocaine when they wrote that spell. Also, I will official Wizards of the coast content. [02:18:00] Speaker D: I'll give it to. So Greg, the next attack roll, ability check or saving throw. Within one minute, you have advantage. [02:18:11] Speaker C: Wait, that's right. It's a first level spell that forces an enemy to make a reroll with no save and then gives advantage to an ally in the next minute. That's incredible. That's incredible. [02:18:25] Speaker D: Craig, you have advantage. [02:18:28] Speaker C: That's excellent. Okay, so I just. Do I do I. I just roll one more time, right? [02:18:35] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [02:18:36] Speaker C: I rolled die four more times, but I blacked out from rage and didn't remember any of the rolls. So I'm gonna row it again. Okay, that misses now. So now the Zoroast hits you with no attacks. Amazing. So I hate that. Okay, so the huge swinging attacks by you, Craig, and you batter one way with a shield, knock it away with a sword, and as the third one comes at you, Tello just lifts up the blanket and he just goes. He just whispers and pulls the blanket back over his head. And the Berzorz just like bats its head around confused and then dances and then pisses a little on the floor and doesn't hit. Next up in initiative is Tello. What's Tello doing? [02:19:29] Speaker D: So is Tello unhidden because he cast a spell? [02:19:34] Speaker C: Yes, yes, yes. So now he's just obviously a man sitting under a cloak next to the. [02:19:40] Speaker D: I feel stupid now because I was so excited to use his. [02:19:44] Speaker C: Yeah, the sneak attack. I mean, hey, you saved Craig from a hit. That's worse. Something. [02:19:47] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. Okay, well, Tello is gonna. He's gonna. He's gonna. He's going to jump out like he was still hidden. And phenomenal attack with his rapier, the Bone Golem. [02:20:07] Speaker C: Excellent. [02:20:07] Speaker D: Phenomenal to the date. [02:20:10] Speaker C: First, now I am going to say. Say you cannot. You cannot flank perpendicularly, but I'm going to say he's flanking the Bone Golem right now. Cuz the Bone Golem is so trapped. So trapped. So I'm going to say that right now he's flanking, so he has advantage on this rolling. [02:20:29] Speaker D: Okay, I forgot I had to roll a hit and I rolled. Where's my die? What the heck? Okay, okay. Does. What is that happening on my screen? [02:20:47] Speaker C: Keep going. [02:20:51] Speaker D: Okay, that will. Does holy block. 18 plus 7 does a 25 hit. That's crazy. [02:21:04] Speaker C: You said what? [02:21:04] Speaker D: Abby does a 25 hit. [02:21:07] Speaker C: Yeah, a 25 will hit. [02:21:12] Speaker D: Okay. [02:21:13] Speaker C: Did I stop from using? Yeah, I did. [02:21:18] Speaker D: That's a 10. [02:21:19] Speaker A: Yeah. [02:21:20] Speaker C: 10 damage. Yeah, that's not bad. [02:21:25] Speaker D: Yeah. [02:21:27] Speaker C: Okay. The bone golem is starting to look absolutely fine. [02:21:31] Speaker A: Oh. [02:21:33] Speaker C: The face Jackie made at me. She was not pleased with that joke. [02:21:39] Speaker D: He's gonna try and bonus action. Hide. [02:21:45] Speaker C: Yes, go ahead. Now, the thing I'll say is he can roll it. It's gonna be a disadvantage now because he has to hide from something next to him. Looking at him. [02:21:56] Speaker D: Okay, well, he got a 15. [02:22:01] Speaker C: Yeah, that's. That's okay. That's okay. He, like. He, like, squashed out by the box, and he's, like, excellent. At the end of Tello's turn. No, never mind. We're actually gonna hold on to this. Never mind. It's the ball. Goal. [02:22:19] Speaker D: Oh, man, I should have. [02:22:22] Speaker C: No, you're not. [02:22:23] Speaker E: Wonderful. [02:22:25] Speaker D: I have so many good plans, and then I don't do any. [02:22:30] Speaker C: That's the experience of a dm. Yes, you. Well, could you. Yeah, go ahead, baby. [02:22:35] Speaker D: It's fine. [02:22:36] Speaker C: Okay, that is gonna be a. We're gonna take a couple melee attacks. These are gonna be against Roe. That's two 17s. Do those hit. [02:22:47] Speaker E: My AC is 16. So rude, man. [02:22:51] Speaker C: That would have been a really good time to have a higher ac. [02:22:55] Speaker E: It was higher than normal. [02:23:02] Speaker C: So you're gonna take 13 plus 3. 16 points of damage. And 13 points of damage. 16 and 13. 29 total damage. These two huge slashes come across you, bro. I need you to make two DC10 concentration checks as the sharp bones rake across your flesh and batter you backward into the suitcase with hard objects falling down on top of you. So two DC10 concentration checks. [02:23:35] Speaker E: Write down my HP right now. Okay. Two DC concentrate. [02:23:41] Speaker C: Yeah. Two DC10s. Greta, you're up on deck. [02:23:46] Speaker D: I feel so up on deck. [02:23:51] Speaker E: Oh, I rolled a 14 and 11. [02:23:55] Speaker C: Phenomenal. You save both. That is excellent. I'm gonna Write those down. 14 and 11. All right. GREAR you up, dog. [02:24:09] Speaker D: That's me. All righty. You know what I'm going to hit him with? Well, I got to find the tab that has spell that I would like to. Before I do anything. [02:24:17] Speaker C: You know what I'm going to hit him with? Well, give me a second to think about it. [02:24:19] Speaker E: With a bird. [02:24:20] Speaker D: All righty. Well, I dm. I would like to cast flame strike on the bizarre Zalbaz. But I would like to wait. DM I would like to do a quick check in my brain. If I cast a fiery spell, am I going to catch things on fire? [02:24:43] Speaker C: Give me an Arcana check. [02:24:44] Speaker D: DC5, man, is this gonna take my action. [02:24:50] Speaker C: No, that'd be such a jerk move. [02:24:54] Speaker D: Okay, well, I know. [02:24:56] Speaker C: Be hilarious if she failed, but I don't think she. [02:24:59] Speaker D: No, I'm not going to 22. [02:25:06] Speaker C: Yes. Because it's a lot of fire. [02:25:10] Speaker D: Oh, man, that was my. Wait a minute. Oh, I just do it anyway. [02:25:23] Speaker C: What are you doing, Greta? [02:25:31] Speaker D: A column of divine fire. So it's. It is gonna catch other things around us. [02:25:36] Speaker C: Yeah, it's called fire, flame, strike. It's gonna catch stuff on fire. [02:25:42] Speaker D: But it's 46 radiant damage on a failed save. That's a lot of radiant damage. And it's vulnerable. Should I risk it? [02:25:50] Speaker C: Sure. [02:25:52] Speaker D: Okay. I'm gonna just do. I'm gonna hit him with a classic, and I'm gonna do the Guiding Bolt at the fourth level. [02:26:02] Speaker C: Okay, fourth level. Guiding Bolt. [02:26:04] Speaker D: I don't even want to be cool. [02:26:06] Speaker C: You got the spell slot marked off? [02:26:07] Speaker D: Yep. [02:26:09] Speaker C: Dope. Gret is it. What does it look like? As you launch of Guiding Bolts at. [02:26:14] Speaker D: Him, she's like, dang, I wish this could be fire. [02:26:21] Speaker C: Phenomenal. [02:26:22] Speaker D: That is an 18 hit. [02:26:26] Speaker C: Well, before we do that, the resource of AZ is going to use its legendary actions and it's going to cast counter spell. So that was a fourth level. That is a DC14. You know what I got on my counter spell roll? 1313. So it does not succeed in countering your spell. So as it screams out in baleful magics, you begin being wrapped up in vithly script that you scream and shatter through as the bolt of light fires through. [02:27:01] Speaker D: Can I flavor? [02:27:04] Speaker C: Oh, yes, yes, yes. [02:27:05] Speaker A: Piss your pants. [02:27:05] Speaker D: So he. Oh, he tries to counter spell. And as he, like, kind of sends that, like, vicli hag magic my way, I like, can feel it. And because it's so familiar, specifically like that I like. She, like, feels the magic trying to, like, come through and, like, mute the bolt, but she, like, she, like, maneuvers the bolt through the magic and it gets anyway. [02:27:33] Speaker C: Oh, sick. Abby, that's awesome. And an 18 will hit rock on AC of 17. That was crazy, dude. 76. [02:27:49] Speaker D: I'm pretty sure that's what I have written down. You want to double check? [02:27:51] Speaker C: I think that's probably right. No, no, no. I think you're right. Guiding Bolt water. [02:27:55] Speaker D: Such a classic. I have spirit guardians. I have it on a sticky note. [02:27:58] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, man, if it ain't Broke. Don't fix it. You gotta. [02:28:03] Speaker D: I know. And I'm, like, so excited for flame strike, but whatever. And it would have been perfect, but. [02:28:09] Speaker C: What? It's an amazing spell. It's just the indoors bit. It was highly effective against the count. That was for sure. [02:28:16] Speaker D: Well, that was fire. [02:28:19] Speaker C: Okay. [02:28:20] Speaker D: Come on. Oh, yeah. [02:28:23] Speaker C: Yeah, you're right. Seven. D. Six. [02:28:28] Speaker D: I'm using my tag. [02:28:36] Speaker C: Plus 2. [02:28:37] Speaker D: 2 plus 2.plus 5. 6 plus 5.plus 3.plus 2.plus 2. 27. [02:28:48] Speaker C: Abby, did you just use a calculator? [02:28:51] Speaker D: Yeah. [02:28:52] Speaker C: Could you just use a calculator while playing dnd? [02:28:54] Speaker D: Yep. Is that not allowed? [02:28:56] Speaker C: I don't take inspiration. I've been waiting so long for you to do that. And I love it blessed you. Yeah, I know, but one of us has been resisting that for four years. You said it was. How much, Abby? [02:29:11] Speaker D: 27. [02:29:14] Speaker C: All right, Greta. [02:29:16] Speaker D: Okay, wait. [02:29:17] Speaker C: As your. As your guiding bolt fires out, it's radiant damage. [02:29:23] Speaker D: Dm. [02:29:24] Speaker C: Yes. It bursts into him, and after it burns onto him, then it catches the hands grip the bookshelves, and he screams as he seems to suffer. Incredibly violent, vulnerable to the damage. You don't deal 27 damage. You deal 52 damage as he screams and writhes in agony. And sand flies everywhere, all over the shop. The Bezorzil bass is looking sandy. [02:29:57] Speaker A: Yes. [02:29:59] Speaker B: I think 27 times 2 is 54. Actually, that's how you're calculating it. [02:30:04] Speaker E: What? [02:30:05] Speaker B: I think 27 times 2. 2 is 54, if I'm Ms. Not Mistaken. [02:30:10] Speaker E: Yeah. [02:30:12] Speaker D: You'Re right. [02:30:14] Speaker B: Are you okay? [02:30:16] Speaker C: Deck, what happened? [02:30:19] Speaker B: Zach, are you all right? [02:30:22] Speaker C: No. I died. That's a terminal diagnosis. I won't make it. I'm sorry. It's been good being your dm. I appreciated the time I had with you. But nothing really lasts. And in the end, all things wither and die. This is the way. No. The alarm that goes off every night went off, and then Hoffa walked up to press it, and it turned the screen off and took it to the alarm, and then everything fell apart. And then if you do anything, and I mean anything on that phone, it will undefen, because that's the rule. So then the feedback was going, and then I managed it, and here we are. What's 27 times 2? [02:30:53] Speaker D: 54. [02:30:54] Speaker B: 54. [02:30:55] Speaker C: Okay. The Bezorzil Baz is doing real bad. It's like emaciated whole sections of its skin have been burned away. And instead of having internal viscera exposed, it's just hollow bones with an ocean of sand pouring out a continuous void of sand just pouring and pouring and pouring. Phenomenal. Okay, next up in Initiative. Oh, that was Greta. So we go back to the top of Initiative. I would like someone to roll me in another. Somebody give somebody roll me another D20 and tell me if it was an odd or an even roll. Okay, do it. Nickel. Yeah, do it. [02:31:42] Speaker D: Where's Mike? I can't see Mike. I'm so sad. [02:31:45] Speaker C: We're gonna determine which layer action we use again. [02:31:49] Speaker A: And even. 16. [02:31:52] Speaker C: Okay, so instead of being. Instead of the noose trying to go around someone's neck again, it's probably for the better. We get collapse of the collection. The entire shop begins to shake as miscore growls and hisses. And items from all across the shop, broken glass, wooden items, metal items, start cascading down, raining from down upon you. Like, the shelves go up a lot higher than 15ft before they disappear in a shadow. And I need everyone to make me dexterity. Saving throws DC15. [02:32:28] Speaker D: Oh, dexterity. [02:32:32] Speaker B: Got a 24. [02:32:34] Speaker E: I got a nat 20. [02:32:37] Speaker C: Dang. [02:32:37] Speaker E: That's a 26. [02:32:41] Speaker A: Oh. [02:32:46] Speaker D: Greta got a four. [02:32:49] Speaker C: That's not as good. [02:32:52] Speaker D: Tello. So tell. So Tello got a natural one. [02:33:04] Speaker A: The same as Tella. [02:33:07] Speaker C: Oh, no, buddy. You're caught up in the sand, Craig. Okay, so Greta and Boz, you guys are both gonna take 10, bludgeoning, slashing, and piercing damage as objects fall on you and scatter and scrape you. It's painful. Coming all over your head. [02:33:29] Speaker B: Row. [02:33:30] Speaker C: No. Excuse me. Yeah, yeah. No, Tello, Greta and Craig, you're both going to take 20 damage as hard objects from the collection break and fall and shatter and cut you. Phenomenal. Next up in Initiative, probably with the last turn, is going to be. [02:33:49] Speaker D: Hey, I'm so sorry. I, I. How much damage did Tello and I take? I'm sorry. [02:33:55] Speaker C: Yeah. [02:33:56] Speaker D: How many? 20. Okay. [02:33:59] Speaker E: Did I take any? I'm sorry. Diggle came in here and is barking and yelling at me. [02:34:03] Speaker C: Yes, row, you took 10. [02:34:05] Speaker E: I did. Okay. Thank you. [02:34:08] Speaker B: All right, boss is gonna point at the. He's gonna point at the bone golem and try to cast banishment. [02:34:17] Speaker C: Okay, cool. [02:34:19] Speaker D: Rock. [02:34:19] Speaker C: Phenomenal. [02:34:20] Speaker B: Wait, no, no, no, no, no. Sorry. Plane shift. Clean shift. My bad. [02:34:26] Speaker C: That's a very different spell. [02:34:28] Speaker B: Okay, he's gonna pull out. He's gonna pull out his. His Damascus steel fort that sends to the tentacle head people land. And he's gonna say, no, you need to go. You need to make better friends. You need to go make better. [02:34:48] Speaker C: It doesn't have range. [02:34:51] Speaker B: I do have to go touch him now. [02:34:53] Speaker C: You could get over there. You could just swing in. [02:34:55] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm gonna go over there and do it. [02:34:59] Speaker C: Now. Here's the thing, Boz. This would super trigger the disadvantage to hit thing, because the one thing I'm gonna say is, you're not like swinging a sword. You're literally trying to slap him. So on this one, I'm gonna say it's a straight What? [02:35:11] Speaker B: I don't think. I'm not rolling to hit. He has to to do a saving throw. Oh, wait. [02:35:24] Speaker C: Make a melee spell attack. Yeah, yeah. Cuz if you're trying to. If you're trying to hit someone with a spell, you can't just automatically hit them, so. [02:35:32] Speaker B: Oh, I didn't realize. I thought it was a range spell attack. I didn't realize it was melee. [02:35:37] Speaker C: Yeah. So it's just one straight roll. [02:35:40] Speaker B: All right, all right. I'm gonna use my inspiration. [02:35:48] Speaker C: Okay. It's probably not a bad time for that. [02:35:53] Speaker B: And I will. Oh, man. What do I add to it? [02:36:04] Speaker C: Your spell attack modifier. [02:36:06] Speaker B: My spell attack modifier? [02:36:08] Speaker C: Yeah. Let me find it real quick. [02:36:10] Speaker B: 11. All right, so I rolled a 22. [02:36:15] Speaker C: Well, pause. Yeah, that might hit. Dude, a 22 might hit the Bone Golem. So now is it a charisma saving throw? [02:36:23] Speaker B: For me it is a charisma saving throw from him. [02:36:26] Speaker C: He's not the most charisma. Would you. Would you boss, if you had to put a knife number on his charisma ability score, what might you guess? [02:36:35] Speaker B: Minus one. [02:36:37] Speaker C: Good guess, Jackie. A guess on whose total charisma score. What do you think? The Bone Golem's total charisma score is 1. Yep. He has a 1 for his charisma stat, which is a minus 5. So he rolled a 17, but it's going to turn into a 12. I assume that doesn't save, boss. [02:37:00] Speaker B: It does not save. No. Yeah. [02:37:03] Speaker C: So what does it look like is you banish the Bone Golem to the far realm. [02:37:10] Speaker B: He. Would it be cooler if he fall? I think he falls into the floor. I feel like. Like a tentacle, like a purple tentacle, like grabs his ankles and like pulls him into the floor. [02:37:20] Speaker C: Think, Boz, as you reach in between the individuals and put your hand on his shoulder, you squeeze him and the Bone Golem turns towards you and hisses. And then the floor beneath him just grows soft. [02:37:33] Speaker D: Whoa, scary. [02:37:34] Speaker C: And where his feet start to sink, it's like the tendrils of this floor melt up and then turn into a thousand tiny cilia pulling up him.
