Sans Pants Radio. I've always wanted to live in a lighthouse by the sea, but I also think I'd be so lonely.
Hello and welcome to episode 5 of The Last Queen of Blue Beach, a D&D's for nerds adventure.
Previously...
That's as many as us, plus our horses, I think we'll be okay.
Oh, shit.
The bloody lizard man.
Oh, shit. The bloody lizard man. Oh, shit.
This guy's got a fucking
he's got a fucking
turtle shell for a sheep.
That's mad.
Four of them,
they were the ones
who were obviously,
you know,
sneaking up behind you
or sneaking around you guys.
The fifth one
comes out from ahead of you
and stands on the fallen logs.
Oh, I have a vision.
Fuck, that's
half-arsed.
This is the least
arsed I've ever seen you
in a role-playing game. Like, outside of role-playing
games, you're like this all the fucking time.
It's kind of great imagining, like, this
waspy, middle-aged
kind of woman you might see at, like, a
I imagine her at a shopping center getting yogurt,
just slamming a lizard in the mouth.
Should I be rolling saving throws?
Well, it's your turn now, so yes.
Sweet.
Four.
That's a fail.
Oh, yes.
Ladies and gentlemen, here we are again.
Jackson Bailey's back in his favorite place.
Everything's so familiar.
Fonk!
Once in your head and everything goes dark.
Now it is Noddy's turn to fall limp.
Noddy, you are on one failed saving throw.
Old man, you're grievously wounded from your fight with the lizard folk.
These old bones are taking a bettering today.
I've still got two javelins sticking out of
my chest.
Probably pushed out when you were healed.
That's very disgusting.
The one with the headdress stands up
and you can tell that it's in
the midst of a spell. Nothing happens
this round, but
a spell is happening. Petra, it's your turn.
Right, I'm going to
attack one.
Uh-huh.
So I have two attacks.
If I can get one and that falls, then I attack the other one?
We'll find out.
You miss with the first attack.
Then I attack him again.
You try to punch it in the face, but its head moves backwards and out of your reach.
You attack low, catching it in the gut.
It doubles over in pain.
Ah, yes.
Hopefully this is the chromatic orbed one.
It's already a bit weak.
Ah, good job.
This one doubles over in pain.
You see it hit its knees, fall to its knees,
and then crumple forward.
You take another one out.
Only two left.
One spellcaster.
I think you need to do a bit of meditation.
Good old naughty You get one success
So you're on one failed saving throw
And one successful saving throw
Just for anyone who might not understand
So as I was going to explain earlier
You roll a 20 sided die
If you get a 10 or above
That's a success If you get a 10 or above, that's a success.
If you get a 9 or below, that's a
failure. Three successes,
you're stabilized, you're fine.
Three failures, you
die. If you get
20, you're stabilized
and you come back on one hit
point. If you roll a 1,
it's two failed saving throws.
That's scary.
This is...
What a dice game.
Old man. What a dice game indeed.
I'm going to try and stabilize Naughty.
Come on now, dearie.
You stabilize Naughty.
You reach down and with some bandages
out of your backpack, you begin to
bandage some of the
wounds on her. If nothing else, you stop the profuse bleeding so she's not going to-
He, sorry.
He?
Yeah.
He is not going to just bleed out and die in the forest.
There you go.
You're going to be all right.
We're all going to be okay there.
It's going to be fine.
Am I conscious?
No, you're not conscious.
Okay.
Can't sing your thank you song yet.
Hey, look.
You win some, you lose some.
Then it is.
Oh, dang it.
The lizards.
They're turning.
Oh, dang it.
One's going to bite one of us.
One's doing a spell.
So get ready for everyone to get.
I'm going to put my money currently on poisoning.
I assume we're going to get poisoned by this.
I just associate lizards, especially fantasy lizards, with poison.
I don't know.
It was a flame. I thought we were going to get fired. Really?
Just a little flame is going to happen. I don't associate lizards with fire.
Salamanders, yes. Yes, of course. Are salamanders in real life
fire lizards? No, sadly not. Because, yeah, I read a lot about
a little bit about salamanders living in volcanoes in fantasy books.
I think the, here's a little tidbit.
The idea is that back in the day, people's fireplaces were often just
because of like, I don't know what it is necessarily,
but like something about the nature of them,
like in medieval fireplaces, maybe they were kind of damp
or something.
But occasionally you would just get salamanders that sort of like the ash. Yeah, like that kind of damp or they something but occasionally you would just get salamanders
the sort of like the ash yeah like that kind of thing so they would chill in there and they would
lay their eggs in there and then you light a fire and out of the fire shitting itself comes a
salamander and so you're like oh i guess there must be um i'm guessing fire birth salamanders
that's what i'm putting one and one together and coming up with 16. I think that's it. I might be wrong, but yeah.
The lizard folk with the headdress finishes a flourish on its spell,
and you wouldn't notice it unless you were actually looking at it here right now
because it's hard to tell.
The grass, the blades of grass all around you begin to stiffen and lengthen.
They look sharp and dangerous.
Brambles all around you grow out a little bit more
and their leaves take on this razor sharp edge
and a slight sheen as if they were made out of metal.
You begin to feel a little uncomfortable
as the blades of grass,
as all the plant life around you,
begins to poke at anything,
any part of it that is touching you. If you move through this area, you begins to poke at anything you're that any part of it that is touching you
if you move through this area you begin to take damage because you're moving through
basically shards of metal that look like grass at this point am i on the ground you are it's okay
you only take damage if you move though okay we'll leave you where you are you're still fighting from
the ground old man incidentally from the ground of the horse. You never got up.
Alright, shit.
You were on the ground from when you were knocked down.
I should stand.
No one could tell because you're so little.
I did fine though.
From being ground ridden, I did alright.
Do you have any...
So you have cantrips as well.
So you have the same kind of spells.
Yes, but my cantrips are not...
I have shocking grasp, light and blade ward.
The lizard folk fighting at you tries to bite at old ma'am,
but old ma'am, you bring up your old walking stick
and jam it into its mouth,
twist it around such that it can't get at you.
Stay back.
At the same time, it elbows you, Petra, in the gut.
You double over it.
It grabs your head and slams your head into the ground.
That's very unkind.
Rude.
Very rude.
Guess who's going down?
It's me.
Everything goes dark.
Oh, shit.
Goodbye.
It's only an old man.
Old man who has no spells left.
Only shark and grasp to do anything.
And you can't move, otherwise you'll get hurt.
Petra, if you take one failed saving throw.
This is not great.
We've been in better situations.
Noddy, you have been stabilized.
Old man.
What happens?
Do I have...
You're just unconscious right now on zero hit points.
You've got to wait for someone to heal you or for time to pass such that you're healed.
Well.
Well, well, well, well.
I guess I try a new shocking grasp on the nearest lizard man.
Do you have any good dice left?
No.
I used them for you guys in the fight.
I did.
Yeah. dice left? No. I used them for you guys in the fight. You grab the lizard on the side
of its face and electricity courses
from you into the creature.
The creature starts
like it's
sitting on the electric chair or something.
You deal two points of damage.
Oh, not great.
Here we go.
It's the creature's turn. Oh, yeah. Not great. Here we go. It's the creature's turn.
Oh, dear.
Oh, Nellie.
This is not good.
Hey.
This is really bad.
No one has healing spells.
Captured by lizards.
Goodbye.
Good news, bad news.
Bad news.
Bad news.
The familiar sight of A lizard folks open war
You see
Good news is
You're not unconscious
You're just staring down it's throat
You take 5 points of damage
Which puts you on 1 hit point
Sweet
This is so great
So fucking good.
So is it pretty much a stalemate if Jack loses one more hit point?
If you lose one more hit point, you might become slaves for the lizard folk.
Well, it'll just be about escaping a lizard folk camp.
That's a doable thing.
Right, Guy?
I think so, yes.
You're going to kill us.
Petra?
Yes.
Would someone like to come around and confirm there's 20 for me?
That's a 20.
Petra, your eyes burst open.
A sudden gush of adrenaline is flooding through you
as your body refuses to let you die.
None of that's for me, no thank you.
Well done.
Well done, Petra.
You're on one hit point
lying on the ground watching Old
Mam up next to you
because she's still on the ground, be bitten
by the lizard folk.
What would you like to do? It's your turn. Oh, it is my turn.
Alright then. Well, I'm going to do a flurry of blows.
I don't think you have key points left. No, I don't.
Just the normal 1-1.
1-2, really. On that one.
I like that we're fighting from lying down because we don't want to stand up and take damage.
Just trip him up and smack him in his mouth.
We can't stand up.
If we stand up, we die.
Really?
Because we'll take any damage from movement.
Does that include getting up?
I'd say getting up does not count.
Okay, okay.
Because otherwise it's like, well, this fight is a fight we fight on our backs.
That's funny.
You deal 14 points of damage to it from a lying
position. You know how a breakdancer
will like spin around in a
circle on the ground? That's what you
do. Breakdancing wars. When your
torso is closer to the creature,
it's just bang, bang, bang, bang, punching.
And then you spin around
and the lizard folk is like, oh, thank god its fists cannot... Ah, punching. And then you spin around and the lizard folk is like,
oh, thank God, its fists cannot.
Ah, legs!
And then you're kicking it with your legs.
It stumbles backwards, but it hasn't been taken down.
God damn it.
How is it not dead?
If it stumbles backwards, does it take damage?
No.
It's not technically being knocked backwards.
No, but because of the grass. Yeah, no, it's not technically being knocked backwards. No, but because of the grass.
Yeah, no, it's not technically being knocked backwards.
This is flavor for the game.
I know.
This is doing it to flourish.
That's sad.
Yeah.
I mean, it's zesty, but... Old man, it's your turn.
Is that enough?
Shocking grasp.
Whilst he's on top of me, I'll jam him with my walking stick,
course electricity down it, and try and zap his buns. You grab his foot? Yep. Is that enough? Shocking grasp. Whilst he's on top of me, I'll jam him with my walking stick,
course electricity down it and try and zap his buns.
You grab his foot.
Electricity leaps up his leg into his possibly cloaca,
possibly testicles.
You don't know.
Possibly an innumerable amount of genitalia through its torso and it lifts it.
You know the oral bee, man?
So its jaw, its mouth hinges 180
and then a bolt of lightning shoots into the sky.
You deal 16, 6, sorry, points of damage.
Let's not get carried away.
6 points of damage.
The creature jerks and then collapses
Sweet
Okay, one more
Just one more to take down
And we've got one hit point each
Maybe I was thinking like smacking the horse on the rump
I think it charged the lizard folk
Oh, that'll distract him, that's a good idea
Highs or lows?
Oh no, highs
I like how you failed that one, I didn't want to be responsible
The creature leaps off the back Of the logs Oh, no. Hives. Hives? I like how you failed that one. I didn't want to be responsible.
The creature leaps off the back of the logs,
and you can see it running into the forest.
Oh, thank Christ.
That's good. That's one.
You wait a little while,
and eventually the blades of glass return to normal.
All right, everybody, let's just wake up.
We'll just wake up old Naughty here.
Slavery, slavery, slavery.
Can I be woken?
You can take a short rest.
We do.
All right.
Or you can take a long rest.
We'll probably take a short rest.
I get all my biz back on a short rest, don't I?
You get one spell back on a short rest.
That's still good.
All right.
So I'm going to say you expend.
So on a short rest, you can use...
Oh, gosh.
Explaining rules is hard sometimes, guys.
So you get two hit dice, all of you.
And on a short rest, you roll them,
and that's how you get hit points back.
You can use both of them,
and then no more short rests for the rest of the day.
Or you can use one of them and then
space out your short rests.
I'm going to use both because I'm very
on one hit point. Yeah, I'm on one hit point too.
We're in a shit.
I'm a naughty
boy right now.
I wouldn't say it would take a long rest.
Old man, you recover seven hit points. We've got people chasing us
so I think we should just keep running as fast as we can.
15 minute power nap could save your life.
Exactly.
Petra, you recover 12 hit points.
That's good for me.
That's nice.
And let's loot these dead lizard folk.
Oh, yes.
Let's see what they've got.
Any kind of result.
And Noddy, you recover 11 hit points.
Hello!
Hello!
You're up there, naughty.
Oh, me head.
There's fucking Doritos dust all over my stuff,
and I don't know...
Oh, I was eating Doritos.
That's a new problem.
That makes a level of sense.
Oh, Adam.
There's new personalities.
I'm going to pick them fast, and that's very good.
Goodness of Harris, better walk course, you're coming thick and fast and that's very good goodness of Harris, but of course
you know
do we know about this?
oh, I just assumed this was just pretty normal
we've been together
for a while
it's been a long while for some days
some weeks were long weeks
you hired me
I am an employee
of yours. I'll eventually pay
you, I promise. Oh, that's
the only reason. I
don't talk about it, but Barton's
not being good.
I try.
I play my little fingers off.
I only made the woman's clothes
evaporate the one time. You made her
holes evaporate.
My clothes!
Her claws evaporated!
My apologies, I heard hulls.
My rhymes were true, but...
This is just chirping.
This is a new development.
Let's give Noddy just a while to settle on her.
Just climatise where he wants to be.
I transition into hummingbird for half an hour And return
I only made a
Lassus evaporate one time
You live a complicated existence there
Not he?
But look it takes all sorts
That's what Griffith always said
It takes all sorts
It doesn't matter if you're a gnome
If you're a giant I do know it's word. Doesn't matter if you're a gnome, if you're a giant.
I do know it's hard for you all,
but God, you're not living it.
Come and talk to me
later when you've lived
it. I'm not, I don't
care about your engine. If you've got
a problem, take it up with me
boots.
Oh, fuck.
Now we'll loot these lizards, Adam.
You find 11 copper pieces.
It's hardly worth it.
Oh, you take it down.
What's going on, old man?
You can be party treasurer.
11 copper pieces.
That's nothing to sneeze at.
You find some gems as well. A bag with 5 gems in it
One of them you identify as a jasper
A jasper?
A jasper, that's a good gem
One of them is a quartz
A zircon
That's my birthstone
I'm putting that in my boot
That'll be uncomfortable He's That's my birthstone I'm putting there in my boot. That'll be uncomfortable.
He's going to walk on a stone.
No, my boots have room.
In my sock.
I'll put it in my sock.
I still think that's the same problem as my boot.
Have your footstone back.
I'll give you the stone back.
It's been in my shoe.
I've put it back in your pouch
And shaken the pouch around
All your stones have shoe on them now
No you've got a whole bag
Of stone shoe foot stones
Gems
Look I was so close to death
I know we were all close to death
And an alchemy case
With three potions in it.
The potions
are labeled clairvoyance,
which allows for remote seeing.
Stone giant
strength, which confers
a bonus on strength.
And heroism, which
provides a bunch of bonuses to one
person. When you drink it, you recover
or you gain temporary hit points for a little
while, and it gives you some bonuses
to fighting. Cool. Who wants the strength
one? Who does the strength?
Who does the good that?
That's not a great sentence, I know, but...
Well, I think given what I was
told about the last battle, old
mum seemed to do
most of the arm work.
You two, you were gone for a little bit.
It seemed like we were in the shit for us.
It's almost dire straits.
As straight as it was.
It's like, well, you've got three of the lizards.
Well, how about I just keep hold of the potions,
and in the middle of the battle, if you need one,
you just give me a holler, and I'll send it your way.
Well, thank you very much, old man.
That's a good idea.
I don't need to worry.
Well, it wasn't.
I was going to say no need to divvy it up right now, but that's good.
Let's keep on going with our eyes sharpened
and looking for that last lizard.
Yes, make sure nobody comes out of the bushes at us.
All right.
Highs or lows?
Highs.
Nothing troubles you for the rest of the day?
That's good news.
As you are unharassed for the rest of the day. That's good news. As you are unharassed for the rest of the day,
you spend a long night resting
and are fully recovered
the next day.
I'm going to roll my dice for the new day.
We're looking at a 13.
You know you can use portent for saving throws, right?
Oh, that's good.
I didn't know that.
13 and 15.
Decent. But not amazing, but decent.
Fine, just fine.
I've got a vision again.
I've got a little vision.
What is it of?
Let's have a look.
Let's see if I can focus in.
You start moving again, and Petra and Noddy,
you both notice at the same time that you can hear voices coming from the left-hand side of the trail.
Oh, God.
There's people moving through the forest.
It sounds like they're on horseback.
You can hear the trotting of horses as well.
Everyone just be quiet.
Everyone stop.
All stops.
You stop and just strain to hear.
What are we listening for?
So we don't kind of, you know, horse, shush.
Old man,
your wizened hairy ears are the only ones
that can make out the noise.
What's that they're saying?
What's going on here?
The tavern owner said that they came this way.
We will find them.
The tavern what?
The trail is to the north here.
We will check to see if they are following the trail.
I realize that there's some people after us.
Pierre did not hold out much longer, did he?
No, he did not.
He did not.
But look, he was a good sword.
He got us this far.
Did give him a gold, anyways.
Look, if we just stay still, then they'll be ahead of us.
How many voices?
There's two distinct voices.
Perhaps we should head back to the tavern. voices Perhaps we should head back to the tavern
No, no, no
We cannot get there
It is nothing but a smothering wreckage
I heard it from Leroy himself
They've ruined the tavern
They've completely burnt it to the ground
That is an absolute tragedy
Because that place was very nice
They have a very good
Such a good name
What news is there from the men on the main road?
Main roads in and out of Blue Beach are being monitored.
Okay, then.
The conversation continues, but they're like a bit ahead of you now.
I feel like if we take out one, then we can question the other.
Here is the trail.
Should we split up and go in two directions?
Hi, Zoloz.
Well.
Hi, Zoloz.
Hi.
Nice. Well. Hi, Zolos. Hi. Nice.
Yes.
Oui.
You take the western path
and I will take
the eastern path.
Call back
if you hear anything
or see anything,
obviously.
Let's just follow
the east or west.
Which one?
Does it really matter?
Easternly,
the eastern guy
is going to be coming
towards you.
All right.
We'll just wait.
How fast are they coming?
We'll just do a bit of an ambush.
Trotting. Maybe we should hide in the bushes and use the ambush
technique because that worked pretty good on us.
We'll get that script
and we'll flip it
and we'll do it to the end.
There we go.
Script flip.
We'll hide our horses somewhere.
And then we'll
wait for an ambush.
Remember, try and do it non-lethally.
So we can actually do this one lethally, the other one non-lethally.
Whatever.
Let's just try and get this one.
Just play it by ear.
If someone dies, they die.
Pretty much.
I'd like to avoid murdering straight out,
but let's just try and incapacitate as much as we can.
I've got no issues.
Anyway, let's ambush.
I'll make the fan a blow.
I like this new one.
For God's sake,
I'm exhausted. I feel like I woke up
with a hangover. It's not going to go away
until this personality does.
This new one, it's interesting.
I think I'm a fan. I think this is my favourite.
By the way, for those playing at home, one of her
background is charlatan, and that she'll just
swap personalities as a drop of a hat or something.
And identities.
I just lie for fun.
It's not even fun.
It's just how I speak.
All three of you, secret yourselves as best as possible in Among the Trees.
You do a decent job.
Like, you don't think you're going to be seen.
But old man, you go fucking predator on that bullshit.
Old man almost perhaps becomes invisible
cover myself in mud old man's gone feral
oh i really like that sentence old man's gone feral i'm gonna write that down right at the top
of i'm gonna write it on the character Old man, old man's gone feral.
All of you see the soldier passing you by.
He's wearing light leathers, traveling leathers.
He's kitted out for speed rather than combat or anything like that.
His horse is wearing, you know, like those jackets or whatever like that,
the long coats that a horse can wear.
Yeah, yeah, horse coats.
Yeah, the horse coat. a horse can wear. Yeah, yeah, horse coats. Yeah, the horse coat.
The horse is wearing that.
It's a deep, beautiful blue,
and emblazoned on it in a constant little pattern is that royal symbol
of the fish going over the sunrise.
On the man's shield, though, which he has slung over his back,
he instead has that circle with the weird squiggles that was identified
for you as the sigil of house.
Fluor.
I'd like to, whilst we're hidden, sidle up to Naughty and be like, have you hit him with tashes?
He rides casually.
He's not expecting a fight.
If you hit him with a tashes hideous laughter, well, it's not going to seem terribly suspicious and he'll be incapacitated.
Just as a suggestion.
I do that.
What we do there is maybe incapacitate him, tie him up,
kill his horse if we have to.
No, because he wants his horse.
Oh, then we've all got one.
Is someone out there?
Who is there?
When you try to throw around his mind, he fights you off.
He's giggling, but it's not stopping him.
And now he knows that you're here.
All right, jigs up.
I'll give Petra and Old Man a round of surprise as well.
Right.
The magic misser.
I'm just going to spend a ki point and smack him non-lethally with my fist three times.
That's good.
That whole, like, move just suits that voice so well.
It does.
It shouldn't, but it does.
What does, sorry?
Like, my range attack should be throwing, like, a shoe.
Yeah, like, I don't know, there's something about just, like,
imagining that perfectly manicured hand with, like, what do you call it when
is it nude like nail polish where it's
like, just like
you know what I mean? You mean the French manicure
where it's white on the ends? Yeah, yeah, yeah
French tip, one of the
gold bracelets, like a couple of gold bracelets
just connecting with a jaw is very easy
to picture
I'm late taking Brandon to the soccer
practice and you're in my way.
Exactly.
It's like having a mum fight at soccer.
That's what it seems like has occurred.
Old man.
Like a brutal mum fight.
Yeah.
Old man, three arcane bolts leap from your hand and strike him.
Two in the chest, one in the head.
You deal 12 points of damage to him in total.
He switches to his native Blue Beach language when in trouble.
Sacre bleu!
Is that a clue?
Because it's the blue.
It's the conspiracy of blue.
It's the conspiracy of sacred blue.
Then you charge out.
How deep does the rabbit hole go?
Petra.
And, oh, yeah, you mince the man.
Non-lethal damage.
Okay.
Because I can do that.
Your first blow is just like a sock in the leg,
giving him an intense dead leg.
You deal five points of damage to him.
That's good.
Oh, he cries out in pain.
Merde.
Merde.
Merde.
I was pronouncing that wrong, wasn't I?
Apparently. When I was Anton de Saussure way back in the day
How do you say it?
How are you saying it?
Instead of
How did I not pick you up on?
Because you're not French at all
I knew that's how you pronounce it
Unless I'm pronouncing it wrong
In which case,
feel free to email us in at douche1.
Douche13?
Douche13.
No, douche1.
Who are the other douche12s?
Give that guy the business.
Let's find him.
You know, message both, to be honest.

It's good to get them knowing each other.
It's a good idea.
The social media is a place to connect.
Exactly. A place for the douches to connect. Duck underneath his horse
and dead leg him in the other
leg, doing another five points
of damage. Apparently do. It's my go-to move.
The horse tumble. He leans down
to grab at his second
dead leg, crying out in pain.
You grab him by his
leather tunic and punch him once in the face
then twice in the face then three times in the face then a fourth time in the face
then five more times in the face what do you deal You deal 14 points of damage to him in that last attack.
That's real good.
He's bleeding profusely from his eyes, nose, mouth, ears,
and somewhere underneath in his torso.
He's not unconscious, is he?
Possibly his nips.
No, he's not.
Oh, dear me.
He's a royal knight.
Royal knights are a tough deal
That's alright, we still got him
Yeah, look, we'll take him down, it's fine
You think that like
These guys are very highly trained soldiers
You were probably right before
To not challenge Captain Mercer
It like, it could have ended
Very badly for you guys
This is the best chance you have
To take one of them out, getting him by surprise on his own
and bum-rushing him. If they were together,
you might not have been able to win this.
Okay then. Anyway, then we'll go to initiative.
Let's see what happens now. Noddy, it's your turn.
Okie dokie. Okie dokie.
Okie dokie.
What would you like to do?
Can you please describe this man's appearance?
Well, he's an older gentleman.
He's got a big, bushy, brown beard.
He's balding.
He's got just fat, ugly lips.
Awful eyes.
A bulbous nose.
Really, his face is a mess.
He's got these weird, odd lumps all over his body.
In one word, mockable.
Well, let me get vicious with it then.
Hang on, wait, wait, wait.
Go.
Oil lumpy face.
Why are you...
That laugh doesn't count.
It's not laughing at you.
It's not bad when you throw one his way and you just get nothing.
And you're like, ah.
This is a different Adam to the Adam I know.
Okay, no.
Okay, now I know what to expect.
It's good to be ready for next time.
I've gone and crushed.
Can I finish my insult?
Oh, was it not done?
No, finish it. It's fine.
Oh, gosh.
Oi, lumpy face.
You with the lumpy face.
Alright, double damage Yes
Or you with the lumpy face
Shut up
Don't just repeat it
Gotcha
That's wearing the audience down
That's good
That's good
Colney Rumpelstiltskin
Now weaving into gold.
Spin my yarn.
Spin these insults.
Spin the stew.
I have not used Vicious Mockery the whole time
because I'm like,
God, the pressure's immense.
Oh, it is.
A single tear rolls down his oddly lumpy face.
You do six points of damage.
Well, look, that's pretty good.
Hey, that's a cantrip.
Old man.
Can I rush in and chuck and grasp his horse?
You can.
Yeah, because hopefully to make the horse collapse and he falls off.
Breaks his neck uh as you try to grab the horse he pulls at the reins the horse rears backwards and you grab its belly oh look i still touch it yeah yeah oh good you deal eight points of damage
to the horse the horse freaks out with him atop it.
He manages to hold the train.
Ah, damn it.
It would be bad if the horse had just run off with him on top.
My bad.
Straight to his mate.
Shit.
Did not want that one.
Dammit.
I think killing the horse the riders on this one,
we don't do enough as a team.
What?
What?
Pardon?
Like in a D&D, I feel like we've fought people on horses
a lot and we never go for the horse.
I feel like that's
the obvious move.
But then you kill the horse,
you're still dealing with the lad.
Yeah, but it's rough for him when he falls off
the horse. I guess.
If you're on a horse, it's very clever.
You're not wrong.
Then you get to hide it. But we haven't fought
anyone on a horse. Well, we've been on a
horse. We've only fought lizard people, and they
weren't riding horses. Petra?
He attempts to cut you down with his
sword. No, none of that. You take
eight points of damage. He slashes
downwards and cuts you deep in
your shoulder.
No, thank you.
None of that. No.
Assistance!
He cries out.
Fuck me, Dad.
