Welcome to episode 21 of Hus Firma Pride, a D&D's for nerds adventure. Previously.
Uh, yeah, I'd like to go and look for Daniel.
I start helping with the preparations.
You wander out to the orphanage.
Is this the first time you've been to the Small Ring Wreckage?
I can't remember. Yes? Okay.
So it's probably a bit of a sad moment
for you. I'm avoiding it.
Daniel has
strung himself up
with his chain.
Oh no!
Is he just sitting there
using it as a swing?
He's dead. He hung himself.
Are you forgetting that Zilli's super hot?
Well, not hot. Just charismatic.
Hi.
Super hot.
I'd like to carry him in such a way that you can still clearly see
the drow bolts.
I'm going to say you start planning
with Bertram.
I'll follow. No, you do pretty well.
Alright, sick. People are gonna
live. We go
south.
Whoever is the god of this world
is heartless, Adam. Wesley
says go full hog.
What does that mean? Go whole hog.
Do it again. Do it again. Do it again.
Does Cassius know what you've done? again. Do it again. Oh, God.
Does Cassius know what you've done?
I would like to break down now, please.
For real or are you pretending?
No, for real.
In the weight of the burden of what I tried to do.
Edric, you have the orb that Mistra gave you and... Tarset to Zilli?
Yeah.
The smoke and storm disappears and it doesn't go clear like it did last time,
but like this darkness just is inside it.
You maybe look at it a little closer
and you realize it's got like the night sky inside it.
It would almost be beautiful
if you couldn't be comforted by something like that right now.
Zilly.
Is he trying to comfort me?
Hold on to that.
Okie dokie.
We need to make sure.
Make sure.
So you mark that you give it away and you mark that you have it.
Make.
We need to make sure.
So you've charmed Cassius.
Okay.
We need to make.
So the search party arrives.
Before that happens.
Before.
We need to A, make it before, we need to, A,
we need to address this in a bit.
We can do that later.
Two, we need to, I agree with what you've done in terms of taking Daniel down,
but I don't necessarily agree with what you've done with Cassius.
We need to probably bury Daniel.
I understand it's fine.
He's so mad at me.
We need to bury.
While they're out searching, we bury him.
Okay?
Okay.
All right.
I'm on board.
Where are we off to?
Yeah, the people arrive.
It's Bertram and basically five other people,
just strong backs and sharp swords, essentially.
I give Zilli a bit of a dirty look. And just be like...
I don't know why, I mean...
Okay, so we need to split...
Bertram kneels down by the corpse, puts a hand on it.
You get a little...
Zilli and Edric, you get a little uncomfortable with how he's looking at it.
All right, Bertram.
Mm?
He, like, he goes like, mm, but he doesn't look away from the body
Go out in pairs
We need to make sure
We are secure
Do a cursory
Look around
He turns around
He looks you in the eyes
And says yes
You and me
He basically breaks everyone into pairs
With you and him in one pair
Okay
You guys head off?
Have I?
Yeah
I noticed that
You noticed that
Zilly
Can I look at
I'd like to look at Edric
And just be like
I look and be like
Trump
Wesley
Edric
I'm gonna let it go
I'll let it go And I'll let it go.
And I might just suggest Cassius.
Hang on, wait.
So let me get this on five people.
Okay, so he gets two of his guys to take the body back.
Oh, I was going to say, Cassius and Zilli, can you look after Daniel?
No, Bertram says.
My two guys will look after Daniel.
Bertram's clued in!
Okay.
I've got to go and find the drow, Edric.
I've got to find the people who did this.
No.
Bertram looks at you.
You and blank, the guy you're with,
will just stay by the...
Blank.
The blank.
Yeah, his name is Blank.
You and Blank will stay by the remains of the orphanage
and you'll be our touchstone base Yeah, his name is Blanc. You and Blanc will stay by the remains of the orphanage,
and you'll be our touchstone base where everyone will be operating the search out of.
I and Edric will search this area.
Such and Such and Zilly will search another area.
Such and Such and.
Such and Such.
He just, like, breaks everyone up into quarters.
If you encounter any drow, come back immediately.
He just hurries through like the drow part.
Yeah.
Oh, Simon.
You might have to kill Bertram.
Oh, God.
What?
No, that could help.
And then you go off into doing your...
All right, I'll sit there, but I'll pace because I am so worried.
Adam, do we find anything?
No, the area is clear.
I'm not going to roll search.
Would you like to roll to find out?
Bertram, you guys walk towards where Bertram is set up for you guys to search.
Bertram stops, turns around.
He isn't even paying attention to his surroundings.
And turns to you and says, do you know what happened?
I just say yes.
Because I'm pretty sure I know what happened.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So what's happened?
And I lay it out like Zilly found him.
Oh, oh, okay.
An old friend.
I think she panicked, and she's trying to cover up that he's
a fucking coward.
Well, do you know what happens
to cowards? They don't get buried
in graveyards, you know that? Yeah.
But this is Karl Hoff's son.
Oh!
Yeah, Bertram. Everybody did love Karl Hoff.
Karl Hoff. Karl Hoff. Karl Hoff.
Karl Hoff pride.
Karl Hoff pride. Karl Hoff pride. Yeah, good. KHP. Kahlhof, Kahlhof, Kahlhof. Kahlhof? Kahlhof Pride.
Kahlhof Pride.
Kahlhof Pride.
Good.
KHP.
Bertram shakes his head.
I don't care who his father is.
The law is the law.
And the law of gods trumps the law of anything else.
Whoopsie.
Bertram.
Charm person.
I'm a charm person.
We've lost. Husk for him a charm person. Hus've lost... Husk for a charm person.
Husk for a charm.
Like Swift King in the deep.
We've lost so many people today.
It's good that we haven't lost our religion.
Bertram starts walking back.
Bertram, wait.
He stops, turns around.
What?
We've all lost our...
Was he an orphan as well?
No, he's just a guy. Bertram's younger than us, I lost um mistra we're losing this town we don't need this on this
night we don't have to bury him we don't have to do anything you don't have to do anything but let's just not say anything to the townsfolk i
don't care if you say anything when we get to lock fort of how much of a coward how much of a piece
of shit daniel is for abandoning us in this hour of need but right now at this moment night. We don't need this.
Okay.
Bertram nods and says,
okay, when his father,
if his father gets back,
we'll talk to him about this.
Two things.
First, I need you to swear to me that you will tell his father the truth.
I will.
Second, Daniel isn't a coward.
We're all scared.
He walks away.
Moving.
He fucking...
All right.
Sam would get your homework ready because you just got schooled.
I did.
All right.
How long until a charm person wears off out of curiosity?
Five fucking hours.
I got a while of loving silly.
Out of curiosity.
Five fucking hours.
I got a while of loving silly.
What do we do with the body until we... Keep it in the church.
Yeah, there's no church.
Keep it in the blacksmith.
Yeah.
Keep it in his house.
Yeah.
The blacksmith.
Anyways, go to the...
The search party ends.
It takes a couple hours. Search party ends. Again, Adam to the... The search party ends. It takes a couple hours.
Search party ends.
Again, Adam, did we find anything?
No.
Found some deer, a little bird.
No, probably nuts.
That was no food to be found.
Pine nuts.
Okay.
Bertram, you're back standing at the orphanage.
Bertram says, look, we're not going to find them.
Not in the darkness.
It favors them.
Tomorrow, we'll be getting getting away and hopefully this won't
happen again all right can i speak to cassius while she's still charmed yeah go ahead hey buddy
what how you going i just feel like this is a good time while you won't yell at me i need you
to listen to everything i say and not punch me in the face for a little bit.
Okay.
Okay.
I'd like to explain about how, what I did to protect Carl.
Nope.
The other one.
To protect Daniel.
So you confess?
Yeah.
I'd like to tell her while she's still charmed.
How many people are here at the moment?
Oh, no.
Just us.
I'm assuming you're taking me.
I took her aside.
If you wanted to, you could be like, hey, Cassius, let's trail back.
I assumed you were like, let's head in maybe behind the orphanage.
Or am I not here?
You can have.
Basically, because it's me, Bertram, you two, yeah?
That's the rest of the search party.
There was five other.
Did we all come back?
Yeah, you're all on your way back.
Get them all.
When they all leave, we'll do a bit of a Bit of a three Bit of a powwow
Are you talking about like
After you get back into the city
But when you get back into the city
I was going to say at the orphanage
Oh at the orphanage
Everyone's assembled at the orphanage
Yeah it's like everyone
When they leave
We'll just
We sort it all out
Oh I see what you mean
Oh well
Before you do that then
Bertram turns to you and says
If you guys need to have some time
Yes we do
That's fine
Thank you
But Get back as soon as you can Obviously There's drow to you and says, if you guys need to have some time, that's fine, but
get back as soon as you can,
obviously, there's drow about,
and
just go straight to bed.
You've had a long day.
No watch for you tonight.
I like the heavy sarcasm
with which he'd say there's drow about.
There's drow
about. Bertram's being a bit about. There's drow about.
Bertram's being a bit rude.
I don't know why.
Bertram's onto you, Zilly.
So all three of us?
Yep.
I go to Zilly.
Bertram knows.
Well, that's a hot shame.
Knows what?
Okay.
I'd like to.
Cassius, I need you to just be very quiet
For about a minute and a half
Please
Zilly can you stop this anytime
Yeah you can end it if you want
I'd like to maybe tell her why she's still charmed
End it now
I'm what? What did you say?
You're beautiful, you're charming
If someone tells me I'm charmed Adam
Am I just sick with it because I'm charmed
If she immediately then just says you're charming
But once again when the spell ends you can revisit these memories oh i will
i rolled for you and you didn't get that she cast this but you don't need to now
end it now fine disgruntled i end. You're going to get thrown in a river.
I'm so happy.
Where's the nearest river?
It's frozen over.
Oh, that'll just break your back.
Oh, wait.
Isn't there a difference?
It's like completely frozen, and then it's just frozen over, right?
Yeah.
Frozen over should just smash through.
It should die of hypothermia.
Yeah.
Right. So I would like to calmly explain very quickly
before Cassie hits me at a safe distance
exactly what I did and why I did it.
So do you explain it or does she dart back?
Yeah.
I assume she darts back and explains it.
I was thinking, I'll do this.
Gets out of dwarf punching range.
She's got it.
All right.
I might be in between, maybe just a little bit in between
the two of you to be just like, hey, maybe, wow, let's see how this goes.
All right, Zilly, explain it to me.
I will explain about how I found...
No, I'd like you to, Ali.
I'd like Zilly to explain it to Cassius.
Cassius, I need to tell you something.
What?
I just want you to know that I care a lot about you,
and I know Daniel did as well.
And I know that deep down, even though you're angry
and you punched him in the face and broke his jaw,
that you care about Daniel too.
Right?
Why would you charm me, Zilly?
I didn't.
I did.
Lie to your face.
I didn't charm you.
I didn't charm you.
You're an idiot.
Okay.
You were very distraught.
I wasn't distraught, silly.
I just wanted to know what was happening.
I'm going to explain everything.
I panicked and I'm sorry.
So I did, I maybe did a tiny itsy bitsy little bit of charming.
And my bad.
Like that's, that's my boo boo.
So let's all just, you know.
I pointed at Daniel on my arm.
You know that's not this Daniel.
What?
He lied to me.
Hold on, what?
And then...
What do I care?
You lied to me.
You charmed me.
I didn't...
Well, I mean...
Did you know, Edric?
Clearly you knew.
Well, I made her un-charm you to tell you, yes, just them.
What?
I spent a couple hours in the cold doing a search.
You didn't think to do this maybe before I went out and searched for nothing.
We're trying to protect the image of Daniel.
I know that apparently he's now a liar, but you know what this town is like.
I don't give a fuck about Karl Hoff,
Patrick. You know about this town.
I can't even look at the two of you.
I'm going to turn around and walk off. Cassius.
Where? I don't know.
To the blacksmith. I'll go and sit with
Daniel's corpse.
I'd like to look at you again and be like,
Cha-cha.
You wouldn't be expecting it now
in the back of the head
guys I'm sorry I said all those mean things
you guys are lovely
no
Cassius before you go
it's all Chinatown chum person
I just caught Cassius
she's young and
pretty
inexperienced Cassius nothing falling on deaf ears it's up to Cassius, she's young and... Pretty. Inexperienced.
Cassius.
Nothing.
Falling on deaf ears?
It's up to Cassius.
I'll be like, I just don't need this right now, okay?
I don't even know what I'm doing in this town anymore.
Frankly, who's keeping me here?
I'm a walk to the blacksmith.
I'm certainly not.
Oh my god.
Okay.
I was going to take you away.
I'm not even joking.
That was my plan. was like fuck this town
A mother figure's gone
The town's fucked I'm gonna take you to Asmerelle
I was gonna steal you away in the middle of the night
But not now
That was my plan I'm not even joking
That was what I this game intended to do
Not anymore Zilly
Jackson listen to Alan You're not getting to Asmerelle with me to do. Not anymore, Zilli. I'm so tired. Jackson.
Jackson's listening to Alan.
You're not getting to Esmeralda with me.
The trauma train has no brakes, guys.
And it's just speeding up.
I'm just gonna... Well done for telling
the truth this time, Zilli.
I'll just be like, I'm done.
Fuck the drow.
I'm going to walk away the opposite direction.
Just leave.
Going home?
Just into the wilderness?
I'm going to chase after that.
No, just leave it.
I'm done.
Is there like an apparition spell?
Not that you have.
There is, but yeah, not that you have.
You can call down some lightning.
Yeah, I'd like to yell a lot.
And then I would like to use, because I know it's almost bedtime.
What sort of spells can I use?
I would like to fire a magic missile into the air.
So you're going to go and have like a magic tantrum, basically?
Like point break, looking up in the sky.
magic tantrum basically like point break
looking up in the sky
yeah
boom boom boom
boom boom
I'm thinking more
animated
uh
brooms
and dust pans
I'd like to
ba bum
ba ba ba ba ba
wizards apprentice
this shit
Allie
I'd like to walk out
run
no no no
just sort of grumpy walk
out to the wilderness
and then yell a lot
and use the extent
of my magic missiles
for my level one spell.
You can cast them as level two spells as well.
And those two.
And then use ray of frost to frost nearby trees and or animals.
Well, there's none of that.
Animals.
Just trees then.
None of that.
Any trees nearby.
Rocks.
Rocks.
There's rocks.
I'd like to use all of my magical energy while yelling.
You are just like magic missiles
flying in all fucking directions
you destroy boulders
you freeze the remains
I would perhaps also like to use
it's like
snow goes white on the man's
Adam Cannavale motherfucker
I'd like to put all of my focus
into that that has not been confirmed thank you very much Adam Cannavale, you motherfucker I'd like to put all of my focus into
That has not been confirmed, thank you very much
Alright
So, sorry
I want to use all my spells into your rage
You just destroy anything
Edric
I'm
No, I mean like
You hit anything that moves.
Including Edric?
Oh.
He followed you into the woods.
You can if you want.
No, not on purpose.
I'm not going to attack you.
I do a lot of firing spells wildly and chaotically around you.
I'm watching, keeping not a giant distance,
but I'm close enough that she knows I'm there
and also to keep an eye on her. Okay. I wait until she can destroy. But I'm close enough that she knows I'm there and also to keep an eye on her.
Okay.
I wait until she's done.
I would then do collapse on the ground and cry.
Okay.
I walk over to you, pick you up, say, I'm so sorry.
It's not your fault.
It's not your fault.
And walk you back to town.
And let's address this in the morning.
Okay.
In the night, if you'll check under your seats, you've all won a prize.
You win a level.
And you win a level.
And you win a level.
Everyone goes up to level six.
That's the only fucking good news we've had this game.
I leveled up by trauma.
We all leveled up by trauma.
I leveled up by lies.
Oh, actually, you don't need a razor.
You're a chronic liar, Zilly.
Wild shape twice a day, twice the alligator.
It's a crocodile.
Six, yeah?
Yeah, level six.
All right.
There should be a pencil
For me somewhere around here
Oh yeah, cool
Huh
This is one of my earlier pencils
This is a pencil we prepared earlier
For a second I was like
Oh, Zilly, sorry
You're fully healed now
Thank you
For a second I was like
Let me check what's changed
Height?
My height's not gonna
Every time you level up
You gain a meter
Still a human.
Gosh dang.
Who changed my player name to Jackson slash Butthole?
That would have been Joel.
Joel Dusha.
You wily sumbitch.
How did he get in here?
This is done live.
He stole in on the wings is done live. He stole
in on the wings of an angel.
On the wings of an angel.
Classic douche.
There's like a song like that. No, you probably want to hold
onto the eraser, to be honest.
What for?
I wouldn't mind it because...
Did you say that catch?
You should have said my catch before.
That was a catch. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
It was a catch. Not unlike before. That was a catch. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. It was amazing. It was all right.
It was a catch.
Okay.
Not unlike myself, it was a catch.
Bit of a humble brag there.
What's that all about?
Just a brag.
Straight up brag, guys.
Okay.
So it's the next day.
You guys wake up to basically the sound of people people packing And like getting ready to be on the road
Adam I'd like to make Cassie's breakfast
Silently
Out of what?
Whatever's there
One of our wolves?
The coconuts or Jack?
You open the packets on some
There's no packets
It's medieval times
You open a bag and there's some jerky in it
Maybe you put it into a bowl
Yep
There's no milk I don't want to say anything You go outside You's some jerky in it. Maybe you put it into a bowl. Yep. There's no
milk. I don't want to say anything. You go outside
you get some snow, wait for it to melt.
Some water. Jerky bits.
I'd like to just
make breakfast. You're a bad druid by the way.
Why? Eating animals.
I fight animals. That's what I do.
You almost killed a unicorn.
Not a good druid!
Until you were like, oh, this might be bad.
I would have killed that unicorn and just lost all my druid powers.
Potentially.
Yeah, so I'd like to make breakfast for Cassius and just don't say anything.
Just give it to her and walk away.
I'm not going to roll.
Yeah, you, Cassius, you wake up to some already unwrapped rations.
Can I tell Zilly did it?
wait, I'll put my
arcane mark on it Adam
that's a level 0 spell
I guess, yes
I cannot think of a single instance where Zilly used her arcane mark
you'll find out
I don't know who did
Zilly can just write, Zilly did this.
Oh, okay.
Is that what you write?
Zilly?
Maybe just put a little Z.
Like, from Zilly.
Zed.
There's a magical Zed written on the food.
Like, love heart Zed.
Just like...
Like a child trying to make up with their parents.
It is.
Go on.
You really want to get to Azamril, don't you?
I know.
So badly.
Zilly doesn't know that.
Zilly, I mean, Ali, I'm afraid that bridge has been burned.
Shut up, Jackson.
You just took a torch.
God.
Anyway, I'll wake up, get my shit packed, what little there is of it,
and join the party walking out.
Okay.
So everyone's assembling in the center of town-ish.
All right.
They're sick and wounded, and those basically unable to move themselves
are being put onto carts along with any rations or supplies.
I take Bertram aside and say,
look, do you have enough able-bodied men to get to Lockfort without me?
I don't know.
If we don't have enough able-bodied men, I don't think you're going to make the difference.
All right.
So what I'm thinking is myself.
Yeah.
You don't want to take us?
I was going to be like, and Zilly and Cass.
No, wait, they hate me.
I don't hate you.
I hate Zilly more than I hate you.
You hated him.
No, I was just sick of everyone.
Maybe before Bertram, I'll have a quick conversation,
a little bit of a chinwag with Zilli and Cassius.
Pulling on my boots, tying them up.
And just be like, look, I know we're going to Lockfort.
Yep.
I personally, I would like...
Oh, you can all see the drow,
what bodies they have managed to get.
They've sort of nailed them, crucified them on crosses, and they have have managed to get. They've nailed them,
crucified them on crosses, and they're
sending them a light, just defiling corpses
and stuff like that. As in the drow are being...
The drow. Not the drow are doing this.
The drow, this is being done
to the drow corpses.
I'll swim with pride, cunts.
I'll swim with pride, gang. Hooray!
One is literally strung up by his
entrails.
All right.
All right!
I'm going to put a pin on that for a sec,
because if I think I take that down, I might get lynched myself.
Anyhoo.
Potentially.
Have a quick chat to Cassius and maybe Zooey.
I don't know, maybe separately.
And be like, look, we know we're going to,
this whole party is going to, as, this whole party is going to,
as in this whole town is going to Lockfort.
I want to go north and I want to see if we can find Herrscher
and the group that she sent out with.
I also want to continue north to go to the Underdark
and see what we can do with, what was that? The drow?
Pumple sticks.
Pumple nickel.
No, that was the elf leader.
Pabonet.
Pabonet, Adam?
Pabonet Fairwind is the leader.
The elf.
Yeah, he's the elven leader.
The, let me check my notes.
Something windrunner?
No.
Clarence Windrunner.
Clarence Windrunner.
Actually, can you guys not?
Clarence Windrunner. Clarence Windrunner. Actually, can you guys not? Clarence Windrunner.
Clample Potato Legs.
Yes.
So the Clance Potato Lance.

I think it was John.
Of course, John.
John DiMaggio.
Joe DiMaggio, the baseball player.
John Cusack.
Yeah.
John, he was in several films I like.
Hep-aid.
Hep-aid moon wanderer.
Hep-aid.
Hep-aid.
I want to go to moon wanderer's location.
We have the map, which we can somewhat use to navigate,
even though it is whatever.
Can you recreate that self, Cassius?
I can try.
All right.
See if we can kind of look at it a bit better.
I want to go there, try and put a stop in this guerrilla war
that they are waging on our people.
And I would like to get karl hoff back
jesus christ adam ignore me flipping through the monster manual
no sorry why should i come with you oh she's so salty you don't have to but i would like you there
okay but I would like you there. Okay.
Zilli?
I'd like to ask you if Cassius said he was going first.
What did Cassius say?
Cassius is coming, yes.
Yes, that one's coming.
Also, yeah, Cassius, if Zilli comes along, is that going to be okay?
I know what she did is not right.
I'm not okay with it.
But in a moment of panic.
I can't forgive her, but...
I'm not asking, so I'm asking you to forget her.
Yeah. To forget the action.
I can do that.
Oh, no, it's me and my heart.
Oh.
Alright. Then I go and
tell Bertram, and then I'm like, hey,
I know where...
We're going Hartford?
No, Lockford.
Going to Lockford. Lockford. Going to Lockford.
No?
Okay.
Lockford, you wish.
I still want to take a small war band to try and maybe see if Hergia is alive
and also to take down Moon.
Float the idea of Cassius and Zilli.
Yeah, me, Cassius and Zilli.
And I don't want to take any other more able-bodied men or women with us.
Cassius, Zilli, and I, Bertram, correct you.
What a piece of shit.
That's a joke.
A joke, a joke.
I'm going to tell the second in command.
He is the second in command.
Herger was first.
Yeah, he nods and says, look, he points to the drow,
like the corpses strung up on the buildings.
When we leave, don't tell anyone,
but can you cut them down?
It's not becoming.
I was, yep, I planned that away.
Okay.
He nods and then, like, you know,
gives a bit of a, like a finger gesture
and then says, hey, everyone, move out.
And then, like, you know, the procession starts.
They start moving off towards the sun.
I'd like to sit out the front of the blacksmith, like kind of not head in hands, but sort of slouched.
And if anybody approaches me, be like, Mr. Fist hasn't come back.
As they leave, like a lot of people like stop by all three of you.
And they're like, thank you so much.
Especially people who like were suffering from the burns a lot of them and their families like come up and they're like
thank you so much our lives let's fill my pride that's all right i'll just say you're welcome
i'm not a fucking weirdo okay so anyway every the procession leaves and they're like good luck
yeah going out on the horizon
Probably they're like far enough away
That you can take down the corpses
I start
I won't even call these two
I start taking the corpses down
I call out to Cassius, can you dig a hole?
Okay, as you're taking the corpses down
You reflect on a lot of the stuff you've done
Over the past couple days Weeks, you reflect on a lot of the stuff you've done over the past couple days.
Weeks, really.
It's a bad time.
It occurs to you that your old system of judgment isn't really applicable anymore.
Shifting your alignment to chaotic neutral from chaotic good.
Is that a bad thing? What does that mean? It's not necessarily. alignment to chaotic neutral from chaotic good. Oh. That seems like a...
Is that a bad thing?
What does that mean?
It's not necessarily.
So there are two different alignments
or alignment like planes that you can exist on.
There's good and evil with neutral in the middle.
Good and evil self-explanatory, I feel.
And then there's law and chaos with neutral in the middle.
A lawful character is someone who has like a code of rules a code of laws
that they respect and always follow a chaotic character has maybe an not necessarily there's
no code of laws that they follow but maybe they have an internal code of laws that they follow
so you were chaotic good so a chaotic good character might be like a Robin Hood type,
like stealing from the rich and giving to the poor.
A chaotic neutral character is more like a,
maybe like a dashing rogue,
like who'll save the princess but take some of the gold for himself.
Maybe like a Star-Lord type character for anyone here who knows Galaxy.
It's because I killed the drow, isn't it?
And then a chaotic evil character is often
considered... I don't even know.
Chaotic evil would be...
Voldemort.
No, like one of the Hellraisers.
No, Voldemort I'd say is more evil.
I'm thinking Smog, actually. Chaotic evil.
So what are you now?
So you're more like...
Sorry, what's the...
People are going to have a go at me.
The hunched over one.
Is that...
Gollum?
That's Gollum.
Fuck.
Well, either way.
Smeagol, Gollum.
No, one of them isn't evil.
Not really.
One of them is evil.
One of them isn't real.
What's Ronan the Accuser?
He'd be lawfully evil.
He'd be lawfully evil, yeah.
So lawful evil is like Ronan the Accuser
or like Darth Vader
who's like
operates within
actually no
Ronan the Accuser
is probably neutral evil
because Darth Vader
he's more of a fanatic
yeah
who isn't really lawful
he's got his own
set of religious laws
you could make an argument
for like a lot of
different things
like just because
you're a specific alignment
doesn't mean you always
have the same outlook
on life
like a lawful good character can encompass a lot of different people.
Is this why my light left my eyes in Mistra's eyes?
Yeah, that was a little hint towards what I was going to do, yeah.
Just remember that she'll always think you're a disappointment.
Her dying breath was...
No, she died being sad for him.
Not disappointed.
She could never be disappointed in you.
You're her children.
Chalk that up to more of the terrible things.
Adam purposely trying to make you guys sad.
I'm already sad.
How else can I ruin their lives?
Probably a lot of ways.
How many ways?
Let's count them.
