Welcome to the campaign after the campaign.
This is not another D&D podcast.
Welcome back to Bahumya, everyone.
Bahumya.
Bahumya.
I'm your dungeon master, Brian Murphy, joined by Jake Hurwitz. Hard one, surefoot. Bahumia. Bahumia. Yeah. Um, you're dungeon master Brian Murphy joined by Jake Hurwitz.
Hard one, surefoot.
Emily Axford.
Munchan Sabin.
Former sweetheart turned savage.
Woo.
And called Walt Tanner.
Beverly Toe Gold the fifth.
Away from home.
That's right.
People at your home, you're always away from home
because you're homeless now.
If your home exploded.
Oh, I'm thought of that. Oh yeah. Well, yeah, you know homes homes where the hard one is. Oh
That's nice. That's beautiful. I also have several vacation properties. Yeah, yeah, but I'm away from them currently
That's true. Just give me this okay
Cool guys, so let's do a little recap last week you guys escaped go later on on your airship and finally got some answers about
Crick Rot.
Ulfgar revealed that he was cursed by a demon woman in the Nine Hells, who, like Moon
Shine, had mushrooms in her hair and spore powers.
You also found out that this mysterious demon woman was never killed and could have escaped
hell after OsmoDS was defeated.
Ulfgar jumped off the airship to stop himself from hurting everyone, but vowed to help you if you could ever cure him.
And hopefully he's still alive, you guys just saw him.
Psh!
Can we actually rewind and talk about exactly precisely how
like did he make his body into a cross
and like backwards dive off?
He just did a pencil dive.
He did a pencil dive.
Cool, that's how it's open.
And then he switched to a cannonball
right at the very end. Whoa. That's hard. You guys filled in old Cobb about
the demon mushroom woman that Ulfgar told you about and he knew who she was. Maribel
Siben, aka, she who has no hospitality, aka the only woman Ulf Cobb ever loved. You guys
found out via flashback that Maribel was Jo-Leen,
the grain's sister, and moonshine's aunt.
After becoming jealous that Jo-Leen was going to be named
the next Mima of the Cricks, Maribel made a deal
with the devil and attempted to take the Crick for herself.
The Crick elves defeated her in battle,
but she escaped back to hell at the last second
where she's been, until now. It would seem that with the devil dead, she's finally free to hell at the last second where she's been until now.
It would seem that with the Devil Dead, she's finally free to return to the mortal plane
and take back the Crick.
You said you're goodbyes to the kindleafs and Mama Toe Gold as Red and Gunther flew them
to safety, you then headed to the Crick and ran into a traveling wizard who sold you our cane and let you pull from the deck of many things.
Very dangerous.
Fun guy.
Somebody got some dangerous shit from the wizard.
Yeah, I told y'all.
They're always, they're always hovering circle in the creek, looking for a small-minded
people like myself.
They are very trusting, repressionable children.
Only Bevin Munchine pulled and they both got very lucky with the deck of many things.
Munchine got the star card and gets to add two points to any stats.
And I think Moon Shine, you're still holding off. You're gonna kind of wait and decide what you want to do.
I won't make it.
I believe I have decided.
Okay.
You don't have to reveal it if you don't want.
Well, it's not really that exciting a reveal. I believe I'll be up in my deck stage.
Oh my goodness.
Guys, you heard it here first.
Dex is going up by two points.
We say that now when I do a split, I'm like even closer to a middle split. Oh, yeah.
Cool. You've been studying those those videos from shit. Like my labia are to
are gracing the flow now. Oh, Blake. It's just a god. What a divot. Yeah. You got you got the
star card and immediately just slammed your leg down in a super impressive
cheerleader split.
It's damn so hard.
And Bev pulled the night card, so he gets a level 4 fighter at his service.
He's got a little half-ling dude named Balnor, who's kind of a lame weak, but well-meaning
gray-haired half-ling man.
The crew wasn't too excited about him when they met him.
That gets to babysit. That's the card.
I'm ever so slightly concerned about what we took him from.
He seems to have no memory, but it seems to have been important.
Yeah, there's a chance he was on the wrong side of a war.
Yeah, he did just appear from another fantasy realm out of nowhere.
You don't know if he's from the past in Bohemia or what?
Or the Bev scouts. He's Bev Scouts now. Yeah. He's part of the scouts. Oh, the scouting comes
the master. Oh, he's my first official green teen responsibility. He is 67 years old.
Oh, there's a 67 year old green teen. Can I change my nickname from up top? Sure.
I want to be Beverly Togo of the fifth. Bell Norris boy.
Finally, at the end of the episode, as you guys approached the Crick you saw that the entire West side was covered in fog and
Abandoned but the east side was still rife with activity
So you guys are walking towards the Crick walking towards the populated area?
Yeah, first things first then
You all bring any bug repellent
because we got flies.
We got flies for every size.
I pull out so much citronella.
Oh, actually, if you wanna keep them away,
they hate sweet.
We're a spicy folk.
Oh, okay.
So all our flies love that spice.
So just like rub some sweet buns all over yourself.
I don't know, they'll stay away.
Are you sure about that?
We have sweet buns. Oh, good point don't know, they'll stay away. Are you sure about that? That's sweet buns.
Oh, good point.
Citronelle will have to do.
Okay, Boundor, Boundor, Step 7 goes,
you know, I never leave home without off.
I've got them off if anyone would like.
Oh, that's deep woods, wow.
All right, yeah.
Well, actually, well, we don't need the ticks
you don't have to worry about
because they're big enough you can kick them away.
Do they talk to
Yeah, everything here's got something to say you'll learn that real quick
I ruffle around in my hair to see if I can find one. Oh, yeah, there's one in there right there. Oh
Hey, but
Well, that's rude I flick it away
I will defend you sir. Boundore just furiously
Okay, thank you, Boundor just furiously stomped today. Oh, okay. Thank you, Boundor.
I'm Bob, Bob.
Okay. As much as I am excited to go see my people, I am slightly seduced by the mystery
of what's happening on the west side.
You know, I went to school there.
I'm getting a real powerful stink with my,
my paladin since from over there.
Yeah, you know,
maybe we just go get a nice home cook meal
and then maybe like after dinner,
we go for a walk in the deep dark evil fog.
Yeah, we can ask what's going on at the west side too.
Do you have some, some elders that you respect their opinions right?
Well, actually the youngins are more are wiser than the elders sometimes the young into I hear
Shrieking maniacally on the east side of the bridge those those youngins that are all peeing on that one tree
We have to probably put in a fire out and there to see fire and I that is the fire
Yeah, there's like that kid can't be older than nine.
Oh, I see that works.
Those youngins are starting the fire and then those ones are putting it out with their
urine.
Wow.
Yeah.
Circle of life.
We're rising at the twerfinage actually.
Yeah, hard, why do you want to correct that is the fire department?
Kids after my own heart.
Just a couple of piss and youngins.
Let's go get some of that famous Crick Boot, huh?
Oh, I hope there's a crawboy going on.
Sweet.
So you guys approached the Crick, the east side of the Crick.
And to the surprise of probably everyone but moonshine,
it's actually quite beautiful.
The city is lit up with hovering magic torches,
and the stump houses are a light with a warm glow.
Crick elves travel merrily from stump to stump
using rof bridges, opening hatches,
and joining the people inside.
You see a big bonfire with people singing
and dancing while young and chase nannier flies.
These big lightning bugs with a hook to yellow glowing butts.
They love them nanners.
People match a nannier bush.
Uh, near the bonfire is this giant ancient tree that moonshine you would know this as the
grandma tree.
And in lieu of having taverns or other meeting places, the Crick Elves all gather here
at the foot of the tree where there's always a fire going, a song playing, and Crick
Water Flowing.
If you didn't know any better, you would think nothing was wrong here, but some of the
elves do have black scabs and Crick-Rot,
and you do hear the occasional cough.
You don't see anybody as bad as Wolfgar.
That was a very advanced case.
So Crick starts saying,
hi to you guys as you guys are looking.
Oh, I gotta make a formal announcement of my arrival.
I'm gonna hop on a real tall stump.
Okay.
I've got the shouting stump.
Yeah, I'm gonna hop on the shouting stump. Oh,. I got the shouting stump. Yeah, I'm gonna hop on the shouting stump.
Oh, hey, Mochama, say something.
Hey, Mochama.
Oh no, I just whipped out my fiddle
and I played an on-back song.
Oh, cheeseburger.
Cheeseburger.
Everyone class, everyone's dancing around the floor.
Oh, there.
Okay.
You see one guy, a P-Tree, of course.
There's a lot of P-Trees down at the crack.
P-Tree! Get, get, get out. Not to be confused with P-A-Tur, but we did establish that there are lots of P-Trees down One guy, a petri, of course, there's a lot of petries down at the creek. Petri!
Get, get, get!
Not to be confused with PA Tour, but we did establish that there are lots of petries down
at the creek.
Yeah, common name, common name.
So Moonshan, you see at least like three petries that you recognize.
Petri one, petri two, petri three.
One of them starts playing a banjo and a few people are dancing.
You see a little Crick Bullywug family about knee high. You see a couple of the peepers who are like the Crick Bullywug family about knee high. Ooh.
You see a couple of the peepers who are like the Crick Bullywug kids
are wrestling each other, but the parents look nervous.
The parents look like worried about something.
They keep kind of looking over their shoulder
to the west where that fog was coming from.
And you guys see youngins running around.
One of them has a huge tree branch that is on fire
and is just winging it at the other ones.
Oh sweet pea. Just swinging it at the other ones.
Ah you scoff, you got me, you keep burning me!
And they're just like kicking each other and fighting.
Ah the joys of children.
Oh no.
I'm just putting everything I own into my pockets.
Yeah little grubby young in hands are running up to you.
Are you a crick-a-lf are you?
No, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm from go later on. I'm a to go my name's P tree. Do you live in a stump?
Pee tree. Did I say the country? Pee tree. I he punches you
Some of your leaves. Did you bring leaves? I give him a copper
He owns the crack now. He's gonna melt that and sell that for brown leaves. I
I'm having trouble grasping the economy. You see the other young it's pounce on him
It's our beating the shit out of them and you even see some adults trying to run a grab at that copper
You also see cousin Kudr steps out from the grandma tree
Cousin cooter steps out from the grandma tree Oh, Cousin cooter, how's he looking?
Munchine, you know that inside the grandma tree
that it's hollowed out and that people can go inside,
but there usually isn't a curtain.
And right now, there's a hanging pelt in the doorway.
And you see cooter exits and you always
got these black scabs all over him.
He exits and he wipes his brow like he's been doing some work.
Whew, okay.
I put new Betsy down. I say, y'all, I got a couple of special folks to introduce
you to. First off, Proud of the Dwarf and Edge, hard, won't you.
I'm already huffing Crickwater.
Howdy, how's it going? Hey, everybody.
You look at our culture, he drinks our Crickwater.
I'm twirling my wood blot.
And then I've got a very brave old boy here
making feel very warm and welcome,
Beverly Leap Toe Gold.
Hello everyone.
I bow very deeply.
Wow, he's so little, look at him.
You see the guy who's playing the banjo,
also Petri runs over and just starts pinching your cheeks
by like real hard and aggressively.
Now I know that it is not necessarily
crawfish Monday, but if y'all wanna show these folks
how crickets get down, maybe we all go
rassle up some craws and get a little crawd
attyball going.
We already got you covered, Moonshan!
And you see a bunch of guys come out with crawfish
in like buckets and stuff.
I love crawfish.
They come out and they start cooking up a jumble
eye for y'all.
That's gonna be a sweet boil.
All right.
Y'all feel welcome enough.
I'm eating a raw crawfish right now before it goes in.
I'm gonna go around and make that and just give them way too many names.
That's Petri, that's Sal Manela.
How are you doing?
Hi, this is Pete.
Lucy Ann, and Lucy.
Hi, this is Tammy.
Yeah, so eat up.

Okay.
Elder Petri.
Yes? Where's Mimaw? I got the oldest petri. Okay. Elder petri. Yes.
Where's Mimo?
Oh, Mimo.
Mimo ran off one of them CrickBullywag's turn to a frog he met freaking out and tacking
people and such.
On the west side.
On the west side.
Down with Sunrise.

Oh.
Okay.
So Mimo's out on the west side.
Mimo's out on the west side just wrestling up some big CrickBullywag. Okay, so Mimos out on the west side. Mimos out on the west side,
just wrestling up some big, a creek bully rug.
Well, shit, I don't wanna be left out of that fun.
Should we go helper?
Yeah, finish it up, you're crawfish.
Let's get outta here.
Okay, can I take a little of this,

You can take all bucket pole.
Yeah, we got it, we got it all over, man.
We, we, we're here at the creek.
Done.
You just take your flask in the water and you drink it.
You don't even check and see if it's okay.
Yeah, you get a minnow sometimes.
Don't like to match near that.
P-A-3, do the crawfish talk too?
It's P-T-R-E.
P-A-3.
P-T-R-E.
That's what I'm saying.

Depends on how much creek what are you been up in
okay
uh... that's a joke out the quick
uh...

and every year that one copy you know i've made that one a few times i think you
stole that joke from your petri
uh... she asked the bully wugs what's going on they seem to be kind of
concern maybe they know
yeah yeah you get you can do before we depart the company of PA3,
I do pull out a pamphlet about the green teen organization
and see if they'd be interested in starting a quick chapter.
Patri, it'd be a great idea.
Yeah, it'd be great for a college resume.
And Patri grabs the pamphlet.
Oh, you got some of that good paper.
Well, yeah. He throws it in the fire. Oh, you got some of that good paper. Well, yeah.
He throws it in the fire.
Oh, that burns good.
Look at that.
Very nice.
Hey, child, pee on this.
Kids running.
Don't tell them to pee in the dang bat bomb fire.
You see a bunch of kids start pissing in the thing.
I get out.
You get in the punishment bag.
You get in the timeout bag.
Heatry just starts grabbing youngins
like by the nap of their neck and putting them in a bag.
We love it.
You see the kids are wriggling or so sorry, I didn't realize there were rules.
We love it.
Stop having fun in the time out, Che.
I had my first kiss in a time out bag.
Stop having fun in the time out bag.
With a bully walk?
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know why we put them in the time out bag.
They love you.
I don't know if they have a time out bag.
So I'm going to put you down as a maybe for green teens.
Okay.
Yeah, you give me some more of that good paper.
I'll join your, I don't know what it is.
Maybe I'll burn real pretty, don't it?
It burns real pretty.
It's laminated.
Yeah, the fumes made me feel funny.
We'd like fumes here at the creek.
I'm saying.
So should we go ask those bully folks
to get a round of the time, O'Big?
That bag does not seem to have any air holes in it.
Hey, tree!
Oh, that's right.
That's why they're kicking around.
Hang on, let me make a couple of air holes.
Be careful with that knife.
There we go.
Just, you're just fiercely stabbing you with the bag.
All right, so let's go over to that boywalk family.
And, you know, we can just be, yeah, I don't know why.
For some reason, what has this world turned me into?
For some reason, I was suspecting them
and being cautious around them,
but I don't need to be that.
Yeah.
Now you can tell by their teeth, they're redged and horrible,
which directly correlates to how nice they are.
Yeah, just tiny little orange bully wugs,
and making grimaces and you see their really ugly teeth.
I shot her.
I was running in the house. I made the bully wugs
We know
Hey y'all oh
How are you?
Well, I'm honestly I think I'm doing better than you you look like you spoke to ghost
Well more like a frog he must spooked us we
We got like our little makeshift bully woke town
down there out west.
And a couple of our.
Frog town, frog town, frog town USA.
Yeah.
It's a bully bog.
That's what we call the Bully Bugs District,
the bully bog.
Very good.
And we had a couple of Creek bully wugs going to that fog,
looking for some berries and flies and whatnot,
chasing some nanoflies.
And they came back and they are giant monsters. So we came back. We asked the Mimo here if she would help out and she went off
But we're real worried about our family. We're real worried about
You know our home. They came back as giant monsters. Yeah, they were big. Okay. Is there any cure?
For I mean I'm a frog. I don't know
Thank you. Oh, you know what I'm starting to feel better. Do you want a wrestle?
Don't you know my uncle my uncle just turned into a frog he met that's been happening a lot lately
But I will wrestle you I think I might go wrestle your uncle first. I think that would be a good idea
I want at least at least take a raise. You know what?
It's very disrespectful not to wrestle
I'll I'll thumb wrestle you
He just tried to tackle you. They got suction
He rolled it too. He just flop so he just like tries to grab your thumb and flop so very I'm
A very big thumb. I'm sorry. I'm very emotional right now our family is in deep deep trouble
Absolutely understood. Can I respectfully give him a nookie? Yes, absolutely. Oh, he'll love that. There you go
We love nookies. Thank you. I twist his skin
So sorry for your loss, you know what I say I think we're going straight into battle so Ow. I'm so sorry for your loss.
You know what?
I say, I think we're going straight into battle.
So I think I might just bungle form it up on the run over.
Ooh, great.
I'm gonna pound some of this crick water and get going.
Put some of these crawfish on ice for daddy.
Are you not dead?
You got damn right, I am.
Where? I didn't realize I was a half-elf.
You know that's crazy because actually most of us cricks don't know who our daddy is.
Could be me.
Whoa.
I mean, probably not.
That little thing's gonna be walking around all proud like you know who his daddy is.
That's actually a say.
Don't be walking around like you know your daddy is.
Could be ball-nor. That's right. I could be somebody's dad. Don't be walking around like you know your daddy is. Ha ha understand that you'd forget me, I'm just a little guy.
Balmer, do you want some crawfish?
I do a real half-hearted, I step on the stump
and I'm like, and this is a,
Bob, bail north, something like that.
Everyone's singing too loud to notice him.
Okay, I did it.
You see the youngins get out of the time
out back and tackle him.
Yeah, Balmer.
Ah.
How far away is the west side from us?
Not far.
Okay, cool.
So you guys race to the southwest and you begin to hear the familiar sounds of the
Crick Bullywugs that you guys heard in the Moonstone Swamp.
But these Bullywugs sound very concerned.
I take notes of the inflection.
Yes, these ones sound very panicked.
You also hear the sounds of a terrible beast.
That sounds like the blue one, King.
And you see a bolt of lightning crashed from the sky.
You head in the direction of the lightning until finally, you see Mima, aka Jolene the
Green battling it out with this gigantic frog
beast with crazy tentacles bigger than any creature you've ever seen except for maybe
the Mithril Dragon.
Jolene's green cloak bounces around her as she dodges a tentacle attack.
You can see her red hair now has a streak of white in it, but she's an elf, so she still
looks pretty young, pretty fit, pretty fit.
And she's got Mama, who is her Paw Paw, a possum who is out and about like getting involved.
She's like scrambling around.
Scramble girl, that's good possum.
I plug Paw Paw's ears, it's not insulting me.
You're alright too, Paw Paw.
Paw Paw is very excited to see his mom. Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr my hands. Suddenly another one of these monsters burst out from my eye. They're two of them. Okay.
This is hardwant your foot and Beverly Togel.
Oh man. How do you do, man?
Another bolt of lightning comes down from the sky and strikes this frog,
he meant, oh, it's so nice to meet you.
Wow. Very impressive. Big fan of your daughter.
Oh, and it's, you hear, uh, uh, uh, mom or gum, the poss Possum is in a way into Possum, so she could speak, and she goes,
Oh, my son, it is good to see you, my tiny scramble boy. And you see Papa Runtz over and starts wrestling with her.
Ah, stop, we're in a fight. Hard one bends the knee.
Ma Ma, it is an honor and a privilege.
You have my axe.
It is an honor and a privilege. You have my axe.
So roll initiative.
You guys are gonna fight with Fragrima.
Twente.
19.
Oh, you know what, Roll for Balnor.
Oh yeah, Roll for Balnor.
Oh shit, once again, I forgot to introduce Balnor.
He is the minus one that takes.
Okay, so that's gonna be a six for Balmour.
You see, Mimaw is kind of tangled up
with this one frog he met that she's fighting
and this other one bursts out from this
Crick Bullywag camp that you guys are in the middle of
and you see he's got these huge tentacles
and this giant maw and you see he shoots out his tongue
grabs like an entire tent, and swallows it.
Oh, oh, we are in danger of getting swallowed.
And they eat in tents like their crawfish, and then he roars at you.
Oh.
Oh, go ahead.
Hard one, you're first.
Um, hey, buddy, are you still some kids uncle in there?
I'm not your husband, I'm not your wife.
Okay, then I'm going gonna swing my axe at you.
16, 16 hits.
He's a big frog.
He ain't wearing armor.
Thank goodness.
14.
Cool, you slash right into him,
you nick one of his tentacles.
No!
I'll keep on spinning.
This one's for you, Momaw.
Nat 20, baby, you know.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, Momaw's gonna be a great.
That was good.
Woo-hoo!
Very good, my champion, hard one.
You have my axe, you have my heart.
I'll follow you to the end of the earth.
You're offspringing as my hero.
Momaw, Momaw blushes.
She's in love with hard one. Momma were in clothes.
Papa's upset.
Ram.
No.
No, Momma.
She just looks like she's like a bigger Papa.
Essential.
27.
27 damage.
Geez.
I guess since I'm trying to impress Momma
when I use my second wind here or my actions, so I'm sorry
17 17 that hits
For 12 and then I wink at papa
Damn, but I might miss that's 15 that hits all right
10 10 damage dang
Yeah, you missed this big frog right up. He's still looking healthy.
I mean, he's healthy for a monster who was turned by a crit rod.
Yeah, he's also got these like black scabs all over him and a giant just pile of ooze,
like a full dead, crick, bully bug covered in ooze falls out of his mouth.
Oh god, I almost lost my appetite, but still I ate my nephew.
Okay.
You're a bad guy.
Just one of my nephews.
Which one?
Oh, the bad one.
You're the bad one.
Um, moonshine, you're up.
moonshine.
First off, bonus action, casting, flame blade.
Okay.
A new Betsy.
Cool.
And you are fungal entity?
Yes, symbiotic entity.
And we have determined that you can cast spells entity? Yes, symbiotic entity. And we have determined that you can cast spells
while you're in symbiotic entity.
Because the red, we re-read the unearthed arcana,
and it doesn't say anything about not being able to cast spells.
We reached out to other DMs.
It seems the consensus is I can cast spells.
And I want to cast defenses.
So we're trying to roast them.
So at us, unless you want to say good job, I agree.
Don't make any contacts, just say good job, I agree Don't make any contacts just say good job, I agree
Okay, and then I am going to attack okay
We're talking about
Hmm 23 that hits y'all so now this is 3d6 flame damage dang plus you get poison damage this flaming poison
Flaming poison damage so that's 12 plus another D6 a poison damage. Jeez. You guys are good at fighting 16
What and then I'm gonna hit him for 12 more misfores
Leave him alone
Yeah, wait till we tell you let Balnor get out of here.
I feel a little intimidated, but you know what?
I'm just gonna try my best. It's all I can do.
Balnor, your fly's down.
That's what, oh, I'm sorry.
And your shoes are on time, Balnor.
Hey, you're keeping it up.
You know what, I'm gonna use my full action to do that to get these shoes laces tight.
That's Cobbster and Cobb Boundoor out of the way.
I don't like that you guys have a new friend.
We don't.
I mean, she's at the frog.
I need hit some for six damage.
You guys with all your special abilities.
Her a lot better than old Cobb right now.
OK, old Cobb hits on his second attack. Oh, OK. He hits hurt a lot better than all God right now. Okay, O'Cop hits on his second attack.
Okay, he hits for 12 that time.
And you know what, he's showing off too.
He looks over at Mima.
Hey Mima, watch this.
That's the thing I say all the time.
He makes those things like that.
Oh, you under the way.
Hard one gives him a thumbs up.
Okay, I'll share it with Cops.
He does another seven damage
with his special ability,
he bonus action.
Hanging out with us makes everyone less cool.
That is, better turn.
Okay, I'm gonna hop on the Impress Mima train
and I'm gonna cast as a bonus action, Thunder Smite.
I think it works like your other smites like you attack, you can see if you hit then do the bonus action. Oh, okay cool. All right, so I'm gonna attack
Mimasa sees you fumble that but she's okay with it. She's very husband. Oh
It's a bonus action child. That's fine. You just use it after you. Oh, thanks
Still getting the hang of that that's 13 is that gonna be enough?
13 does not hit oh
All right, so I guess the lightning strikes me instead.
No, I think you don't, you don't have to use it.
Oh, okay, cool.
I can use it on my second attack.
Yeah, go for it, cool.
Mama tells you that.
Thanks, Mama.
Clawon, young, halfling.
Thank you.
Swing your thunder blade.
Oh, I feel so inspired.
Bound always may be feeling a little more confident now.
Jesus, that's 15.
Is that it?
15 hits. Okay, okay. Jesus, that's 15. Is that it? 15 hits.
Okay, okay.
It's gonna be 11?
11 damage, okay.
Yeah, and then he's right hurt.
2d6 of thunder.
Fuck, like, my frog is so hurt.
And he rolled before, he rolled worse than Bal Nore.
Oh shit, Bal Nore finishes him.
Yeah, how close to death is he?
He's not that close to death.
Okay, he's, you know, so I always like to reserve the potential
to save and interrogate, but I don't know, this frog
might be beyond help him.
Yeah, he vomits another dead, Crick-Bully-Wug,
and a pile of goo.
Okay.
Beyond the pale.
Let's.
I am tempted for all of us to get on, get on him
and hold his mouth so they speak up.
This was my uncle. I threw his up another critical of teeth improved through the transformation
No, they're even worse. Oh, no. That's gonna be nine extra damage though nine extra damage cool
You knock one of his big teeth out you want to get and it comically hits him ahead
I've kind of become a discerning collector and it is Balnor's turn Balnor turns to you Beverly
Sir Beverly I serve you what would you have me do?
I guess just yeah kind of whack at that guy if you don't mind. I'll whack him
Balnor runs forward and he swings
Mrs
With his one and only attack you know what Balnor don't you just, I give him my backpack. Belnor has an action search though.
He, yeah.
Would you like me to use my action search?
Let's hold on to that.
I think there might be more stuff a miss today.
Yeah, have him hold the backpack.
Have him be like the mom wall.
I'm gonna go on the rollercoaster.
Do I expect to get your backpack?
Does anyone have a jacket or something that they need held?
Ha, ha, ha.
He goes back to grab your backpack
and the frog, he, is gonna shoot his tongue out at Boundore.
Boundore!
Oh no!
No!
My backpack and also Boundore!
Oh okay so Boundore's gonna do a strength saving throw go ahead and roll for Boundore Beverly.
What's his strength?
Uh oh.
What did you get?
He actually has a plus four to strike.
I'm doing some real Beverly rolls today.
That's a six plus what, what was the strength?
His strength is four.
Okay, so that's 10 total?
10 total, okay.
No.
Oh dear.
He gets a tongue wrapped around him and gets pulled within five feet of the frog who makes
a bite attack as a bonus action immediately. Super gonna hit Balnor.
Oh dear, I'm regretting ever being mean to Balnor.
Yeah, a pink it's, it's okay, I love you all.
Oh, Malor.
You barely got introduced.
Ah, it's just the saliva's getting all over my backpack.
I'm pretty sure that Balnor just tried to zip it up
and broke your zipper as he did.
Oh, that takes so long to get the zipper back on the track.
Bound takes 25 damage and his swallow load.
Is he dead?
He don't know yet.
Oh, shit.
He just, you see him in the mouth as the sun goes back.
I still have your backpack.
And he throws you your backpack.
This is super small, but I did notice his breastplate was on backwards
Sorry to be so petty. Yeah, no, it's alright. I guess we got a save
I guess it's just a for the stomach alright so based on how this
Frog he myth works if it gets back to the frog he myths turned balnor is not gonna
That is your turn, hard one.
All right, let's try to kill this,
rock-Hemeth then.
Uh-oh.
Balnor, we're coming for you.
The frog burps.
I'm not gonna hit that first one.
Oh, no.
13.
You miss.
Oh, God, I was, oh.
It started to feel cut-a-bad.
Yeah, I'm feeling guilty.
Well, he just, we sucked a man out of his world
and then sent him to die.
No, Bards will sing the ballad of Balnor,
and she'll be triumphant.
All right, so I got a 27.
27, that definitely hits.
If you do 20 or more damage in a turn to him,
he might throw off Balnor.
Really?
Yeah.
OK, well, that's going that's gonna be 13 damage.
13 damage, okay.
Not quite enough.
No.
You see, he starts to regurgitate Balnor, and Balnor is starting to climb out.
It hurts everywhere.
There's acid in here.
You're gonna be alright, buddy.
How much did you do to it?
How much did you damage him for?
He gets sucked back down.
14.
13.
It needs to be in a turn.
Moon China's your turn. Oh, and he's being a turn
Can you see either died? Can I jump in and try and throw bal no or out?
Yeah, do you want to jump in the
Frog he met stomach you want to jump in his belly?
Yeah, I'm gonna grab something from bed fan
Okay, what are you gonna? I know exactly what you have
Beth's hand. Okay, what are you gonna tell me?
I know exactly what you have.
I can't tell you.
Okay, wait, you're not gonna tell me?
I'm gonna, maybe, you know what,
I'm just gonna run and shove something in his mouth.
I'm gonna grab something from Beth and shove it in his mouth.
Do you wanna toss you the backpack?
Yeah.
Okay, you throw on the backpack.
I grab a vomit buried in his throat.
It's not.
Oh my God!
Oh my God!
I knew it. I fucking knew it.
Call the other very mysterious little...
Don't look.
Oh, Gufa God.
Do, Gufa Frog.
You guys do have those vomit berries.
Oh man, I'm gonna say, yeah, that's a freaking Uku vomit berry.
I'm gonna have him roll it to disadvantage a con saving throw to try to not far.
Not today, Belnor. Not today. I'm gonna have him roll it to disadvantage a con saving throw to try to not far not today Balnor not today
He does not succeed
This frog does heat the berry and then
BORFS EVERYWHERE and Balnor fell out onto the ground covered in goop just
So there's a bunch of other quick bully wugs in there.ugs in there. Yeah, there's like little skeletons. Oh no.
Bullywugs and stuff.
And you see Boundore's just in this pile of acid goop reaching out to Beverly.
So I'm help.
Please help.
Boundore!
I'm so sick.
I go to Boundore and I hand him a towel.
Okay.
I also do my spores damage to the frog canas.
Okay.
That's 12 quail forces.
Oh my god, that's so funny. Yeah, I mean, that'skina. Okay. That's 12, 12 forces.
Oh my god, that's so funny.
Yeah, I mean, that's what it's for.
That's what it's for.
I can't follow that.
That's what we said a bit.
That is Old Cobb.
Old Cobb goes, now that he's out of here,
I don't like him again.
Old Cobb hits for nine damage.
This dude is right fucked up, shoots again,
and misses. Misses on the second shot.
Belnor distracted me.
Same.
That is Bev's turn.
I'm just gonna do a vanilla slice.
Okay.
Slice, slice, baby.
Slice, slice, that sounds good.
There we go.
Uh, 15 plus 8, that's gonna hit.
That hits.
Alrighty.
He didn't even get to use his tentacles.
That's going to be 10 damage ten damage okay, he's very heard second attack. Yep
Will I yeah, that's 15. Yeah, that is gonna hit thank God for this low AC
Frog daddy
Okay, oh yeah, that's a 14 damage damn finish him
Give the honor to Balnor
I do I
Absolutely give Balnor my sword all right you brood piece of piece of crap
I'm sending you back
To the fog where you came from and he runs forward and he falls flat on his face
and better than you need to kill him.
I'm still dizzy from all the stomach acid.
Yeah.
All right, C plus effort, Bound War.
My shoes came on tide.
They already were on tide.
I grabbed my sword and I like kind of dejectedly say,
strike wild, hard shine.
As you just low effort cut through him, you go,
I'm like a giant mist of evil neck.
I, as he goes through him.
I grab his cheeks in the last moment
so I can understand his dying words.
Oh, I wish I was a better uncle.
Ha ha ha.
Oh, don't worry.
That's so sad, but so true.
We're gonna fix this.
I promise.
Yeah, so the dust kind of settles.
You see Mimaw finishes off her frog he myth shoots him
with a wall of fire flame, goes all around him
and he, he dies.
She walks over to you guys and she gives,
she gives you a big hug, moonshine and she runs over
and she greets hard one and everybody.
Oh, look at, we got a tall Creek Alp here.
How is, so you're tall glass of water.
How you doing?
Thank you, doing very well.
Look, we got a little Crick-A-L over here.
How are you?
Very good, man. How are you?
I'm doing just fine.
It's an honor to meet you.
I'm doing just fine.
Nothing could ruin my day.
I got my favorite daughter here.
Oh, stop.
You're my favorite Mimaw.
Mimaw?
What has been going on?
Well, I mean, I know about the crick-rock,
which by the way, you and I should have a little tea time
talk about what's going on the crick-rock
because I've got some intel.
That's why I came back here to tell you a little more
about the crick-rock, but perhaps you already know.
All I know is that these people aren't getting better
and I've been able to stabilize a lot of them,
make sure they don't get worse,
but the grandma tree's just full of sick cricks
who can't dance or play around or play the fiddle
or they can barely keep down their jumble-eye.
That's a fucking travesty.
No one has finer cuisine than you crick-os.
I taught him how to eat the brown stuff at the stomach. Oh, yeah, the most delicious part
That's my favorite part too. I've been saving all the brown stuff
Where you got some brown stuff all you put it in a I put it in a whorthers wrapper and toss it later
She grabs it needs it. Oh, I have the wrapper
But me mo what's been going on on the West Side though?
This used to be bullie bog and now it's like yeah, we told I mean, I'm sorry to joke.
Okay, that was really good. All right, and me ma goes we've been slowly evacuating people out of the
out of the West side of the creek because this fog has been creeping.
And you know, the land here ain't been right, the creek ain't been right,
the people who are closest to the creek on the west side specifically were the ones who were getting sick.
So we just keep moving east and we don't know what's going on.
But a few days ago, Melf went missing in the fog and Milf and all his rattlers.
His rattlers are gone.
Oh, Laura!
Sweetie!
We sent in a few rangers and a little rescue party and they didn't come back either.
Anybody who's gone into this fog and come back.
Mima, I cannot speak for my compatriots, but I will absolutely enter the fog.
I don't want you to die, Moonshine.
Mima, just die rope to me, and I'll go into the fog, and if you get scared, you can tug me back.
You know what? That sounds like a pretty good idea to me.
No persuasion check needed.
Hold on, hold on. She's not going into the fog by herself.
Yeah, we're going to need three ropes.
You see, I want a super tiny rope for papa.
Absolutely.
And Mama speaks up.
My children, you have a string.
We do not know the dangers that lie beyond the fog.
She turns to me, Ma. Mother, I think it would be inadvisable the dangers that lie beyond the fog. She turns to me, ma'am.
Mother, I think it would be inadvisable for them to go into the fog with just a rope.
And me, ma'am, you are just so smart. You know what? Sometimes we gotta do good,
great, bad, great, here. And mom all's right. You see, Papa is trying to be like a baby
possum and like ride on his mom. Like he's going, stop, stop that, stop that, my little baby boy.
I whispered to Moon Shine.
Should we tell them that we know about Maribel?
Yeah, I think that's a good call.
Okay.
Me, Ma, I don't want to bring up anything too sensitive, but you know, we tough times call for tough skin.
So, uh... That's what we. So that's what we say tough times call for tough skin
It I believe that it could be the work of Maribel
I know that you never told me about Maribel and perhaps that was you know
We got who's Maribel you see how she kind of looks at old cop what did you say?
We know all about your crazy sister. Oh
Well, we saw our division and she's just as attractive as you are. Excuse me. Oh
Malora
We better go back to my stump and talk this out. Okay
Before we leave, so, DM question.
Yeah.
We're in like, bully bog.
Is that kind of like on the outskirts
of the area where the fog is settled in?
Yeah, so the cricks kind of all evacuated,
but some of the crick bully wugs didn't listen
and stayed in their little area.
Stubborn folk.
Yeah.
Okay.
It's hard to leave home.
Yeah.
Cricks are a little more nomadic than the bully wags
They're very very their home bodies. Boil wags are family oriented. Yeah, yeah, extremely
Cool, are we headed out? Yeah, you guys want to go to Mimastun? Yeah, yeah, let's go to Mimastun
I want to take a piercing look into the fog. I got some poor. Do you want to look into the fog?
I want to look into the fog. Okay, um go ahead and roll me just like a pure religion check.
What?
Because obviously, obviously your sense of evil
is just like pinging like crazy.
Yeah, I'm going to put my mind in goggles on
and take a look into the fog, too.
OK.
How deep into the fog do you go?
Not too deep.
You go in it.
And Mama goes, don't get so close there.
I'll stop right where she told me to,
and then just lower the goggles.
You see, pop-off starts around
and towards the fog and Mama bites him by the tail
and pulls him back.
It's impressive.
Pop-off-y, yeah.
Rew, rew, rew.
You're not looking to the fog, my son.
Well, good news, guys.
I didn't die roll the three.
Okay, so you just look at the, yeah dude.
It's, it's misty there, man.
Yeah, I can see that it's super foggy.
I was gonna say, I got a 12,
a 12. Okay, the land here is pretty much poisoned so you kind of sense evil everywhere. Like definitely
around here and it's not super concentrated. You can't like track down where Meribel is assuming
that she's here, but you do feel just the further you look the more like evil there is.
Can I produce flame and then throw it because it can be within 30 feet of me?
Sure.
So I want to just produce it in the fog, see if it lights anything up.
You produce flame in the fog, you see some glowing flame in the distance.
No bodies dancing demonically in front of it.
You don't see them.
And me and Marcos, you know we tried all these tricks.
I tried throwing rocks in there.
We did a couple of sticks.
Okay, you're right.
He did it ahead of me.
I dropped my stick.
I said, yeah, Mama goes, I said that we did not have to try the sticks. We knew that wouldn't work.
Oh, mama, you are. I know what never awakened your pulse. That's what I said. You don't truly mean that. Do you mother?
Oh, of course not, mama. You fix that, mama. She starts to catch her. Mama goes, rararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararar I'm so excited to see Mama's stump and see just all of these slogans embroidered on various
pillows.
They'll live laugh love, the crick moms.
All right, yeah.
Let's go back to the stump.
Let's say back to the stump.
You feel me, Molly, feel so the threat here has been neutralized for the time being.
Well, I think the threat around here ain't never been neutralized.
Some ain't right.
We all know that.
Maybe we know what specifically right now though.
Yeah.
All right.
Let's scoot to the stump.
Let's go to the stump.
So Mima takes you back to her stump.
A stump just like all the other ones.
Mima's no frills.
She does have a grandma tree adjacent property that's that's pretty good
It does get loud at night though in real laundry. No, okay, no
There are definitely clothes lines with clothes that young and steal those clothes too. That's
Luckily people are nude very often anytime they do a
Yeah, you just yeah you you wake up the lines are there to borrow them. Yeah, you see
close. Yeah, you just, yeah, you wake up. The lines are there to borrow them. Yeah, you see
Mima is all like dirty from having just fought this frog he myth. She just like grabs a shirt off a clothesline and puts it on over. We just run into the clothesline and then come out the other
sad dress. I'm taking notes. Clothes stealing there. I'm gonna grab new pair of socks. The
Crick L who you stole, a clothes office clothesline, pokes his hat out of his tongue and goes,
you enjoy those socks, man.
Thanks little man.
My name's Petri.
It's a different Petri.
Different Petri.
I'm gonna know all right too.
Dullier Crick L.
Wow.
Have a good night, P.I.T.
Oh, I'll add that to my list of names.
It's hard one, the Dullier.
That's pretty good.
So you guys get back to Mimos' stump.
It feels a little bit like a hobbit hole when you go inside.
It's just one room, but it's very cozy.
There's a fireplace and a little kitchen with a wood table
and some chairs around it.
It looks like she doesn't have a bed,
but she does have a little meditation area
with some candles and pads for her to sit on.
Balor, could you make us some tea?
Oh yeah, of course.
You see he walks over and he starts trying
to mess with the burners.
Is he going to roll?
Yeah, yeah, just a round.
Every day he does is just like a window
into where he may have been ripped around.
Balllor, don't use any of the brown leaves, that's cash.
You see him sweating so hard.
You got a five. You got a five on his intelligence check.
He goes over and T turns the gas on way too high.
And it really goes up.
Mima goes, you know what?
Let me, why don't I put some T on?
Down or?
Okay, yeah, that's fine.
I'm good.
You know what?
I might go sit over in this little meditation area.
It seems good.
Great.
Okay, if you could just not touch the candles, thank you.
So Mima sits down with all of you guys
at this kitchen table.
Valnor's kind of left out.
He's just sitting over in the corner.
So it's you guys all cobbin' Mima, and she goes,
now what are you saying?
What does this have to do with Maribel?
We found out that the Cick-Rot is demonic, necromanic. I don't know if there's a difference.
I'm not a woman of learning. And we encountered, you know, the legendary heroes.
I'm familiar?
Well, Oof-Gar.
You met Oof-Gar?
It was awesome. Yeah. But also a little scary and sad. He's got a pretty
advanced crit-grot. Oh no. Yeah. And he sort of weaved a tail for us talking about how he went down
to Elfgar with the Allanalonus andest and in hell they encountered some sort of mushroom
demon woman. Sound familiar. You see Mima nods. I guess when they went to fight
Osmodeus she slipped out of hell. So he's slipping around she's a
rakely little bitch. Me and I in the bad way. Oh yeah. I know we use bitches
a term of endearment but my sister is not a nice person. I didn't want to say that. I'm glad you did
So why didn't you ever tell me about her? I
Mean I know that it was probably pretty painful, but I'm surprised that you never as a cautionary tale told me about her
Well, young and you know, I'm not questioning your race and by any means obviously you did a good job
I would I would agree with that she pinches your cheeks really hard just like really feeling out your face
See done feel very good
Well, you know, we all kind of just decided that we weren't gonna talk about she who has no hospitality
Because we got a bad reputation and a lot of people think
we're dumb or that we're lesser than or something.
The last thing we needed is a meribel, the terabel, being the one who represents the
crick.
So we try to just not spread that tail.
I understand.
No one has sex more culture into Bohemia.
You pick up. You see, mama and mama and Mima look at each other and mama goes,
I think he is flirting with you mother.
She kind of blushes.
I think he's flirting with you, mama.
Mama blushes somehow.
You're both beautiful.
But I gotta say you know taking all this time slowly taking over the
creek over a year, poison in the land. That's just that's not the hothead
sister I'll remember. I would think that she would just come out, swing and try
to attack me with one of her weird tentacles or something. And you see, old Cobb goes, yeah, well, maybe she learned a little patience sitting in hell for
200 years. I was going to say the same thing that I would assume that hell changes a person.
Probably for the worse. Yeah, I mean, we met his mom and she was a revenant and it changed
her a lot. Yeah. And that's making a deal with a god, not a demon.
Your mom almost in hell?
She was, I think wandering the astral plane, she talked to a guy.
Oh that's different, that's not as bad as hell.
I mean it sucks, it's not good.
Well I didn't really know her before so she didn't change that much.
Oh how she doing now?
I don't know where she is.
Oh okay, it's kind of a sorry.
Family's really poor here, I'll be here.
Take her big hop of Crickwater.
It's on our to-do list. Yeah, well
So if Maribel's behind this could be do you know where she might be?
If I had to guess it'd be in that their fog
Yeah, that tracks. Yeah, that fog is a
Pretty evil get a real a real stink from it.
It is not good and I will tell you the last time we fought Maribel, she is the greatest
foe I've ever faced.
She is stronger than anyone I've ever seen and she fought us aggressively and stupidly
and she,
she's still almost one.
And if now if she's, if she's wise up
and she's trying to turn our people against us
and use her spores to turn people into zombies
or whatever, then I worry for what she's capable of now.
I can't understand that if, if what she wanted was a crick,
why would she destroy all the crick?
Just so no one else could have it?
I think that's a part of it, but I also think, you know,
I think my sister was impulsive,
and I think she was jealous.
And the demon lady that she became, ain't the girl that I knew when you
make a deal with the devil you might be doing it impulsively but once you make
that decision then you ain't right forever so I don't think there's anyone in
her back now she's she signed her contract's, she's a demon. I test the tea to see if on the tea. He blows too much it spills over a little bit
There's anyone either tea blown on I'm good. Okay. I'll take a little bit. Okay, Bummer
I drink tea
Well, I don't know about y'all, but I feel like the only place to go is into this fog
Yeah, we're gonna be good by your aunt y'all. I don't know if you can I feel like the only place to go is into this fog.
Yeah, we're gonna do that way. We're gonna do that by your aunt.
Y'all, I don't know if you can defeat her right now,
not without help.
And I want to go with you, but I...
Moonshaw, you've never been out of spells,
you know what that's like.
Oh, I just did it for the first time and it felt like
it felt like a horror episode of a podcast.
I do not like listening to podcasts.
Podcasts, isn't that when you flip bean pods into the crack?
Yeah, that's it.
We call that fish and podcast.
Oh, yeah, I went podcasting this morning, caught a few reglers.
I am casting spills all day.
I am casting greater restoration on these people who are sick.
And if I leave, if I'm not here, then people are going to die.
Yeah, yeah.
But I mean, the three of us, are you suggesting that we need to enlist the help
of some fellow cricks, or is there a nearby town
we should go to?
See me, Mom.
Turn to see Moonshine, she says,
I ain't talking about just crick-ills
or humans or your friends here.
I'm talking about nature itself. If I ever told you about the elemental chaos.
No. Dang, you been holding that a lot, Mima. Well, I got like 600 kids. I know.
Thank that the truth. And you think those kids are bad again putting the timeout bag you got a this girl right here
After a certain point, you know timeout bag you associated with kisses. You just go in there to get kissed
Is that what you're doing in there? Yeah, it's like all dark. You don't even know who your kisses
It has been a long time to the time out bag
The books for right it is the horniest place on earth.
That's what they say about us.
Yeah.
We should sit you down and have you read us
from the history books, what they say about us.
They say a lot of other more derogatory things,
but that's kind of the highlight.
Derogatory, that sounds complimentary.
Yeah.
It is not.
It is not my child, that says Mama.
Mama.
And Mimago's long time ago way back when
were some powerful druids that tried to use their command
of the elements to create their own world.
They made four elemental Titans to help build it,
one for air, fire, water, and earth.
Unfortunately, as these things go,
Titans ended up being far too powerful and quite chaotic.
The world they built was completely inhospitable
and not fit for life.
But if you visit it and prove yourself worthy to the Titans,
they just might grant you the power of the elements.
I think that might be the only way
you're gonna be able to beat Maribel
by turning nature itself against her.
You sure you don't wanna do the rope thing?
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know the rope thing is at mama,
what do you think about the rope thing?
I think it is a bad idea.
I think the only way is the elemental chaos, as you say.
Okay.
Why is one?
I forbid my son from going and Papa goes, Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Why can't I go mama? Pappa, you have to respect your mother.
I don't need, I'm a grown scramble boy.
I'm a grown scramble boy.
I've been running around, I'm excramble,
and I've been grabbing PA, Terp, Patrice,
getting people, saving people,
running around, grabbing ambulance.
Mama, it is true.
He is no longer a mere scramble boy.
He's proven himself to countless battles.
We would not be alive today without sweet papa. He's a scramble man
Yeah, he's a scramble man
You see mama tears up
Perhaps I have not given you enough credits papa
We will return him to you safely my queen
Please accept this Ritz bitsBitts cracker.
She furiously nipples it out of your hand.
Like, like a possum in the trash.
Okay, that's a fair, really rare.
If you want to eat something, put it in the trash.
Rare, rare, rare, rare.
So is there like a door or something to this world?
Yeah, I see.
It's not quite.
It's a ritual.
Oh, no, no.
We are no stranger to rituals.
Oh, wow.
Give us something.
We'll pop it.
I took a pill in the room.
Yeah.
I took a pill in the room.
Yeah.
I took a pill in the room.
Yeah.
I took a pill in the room.
Yeah.
I took a pill in the room.
Yeah.
I took a pill in the room.
Yeah.
I took a pill in the room.
Yeah.
I took a pill in the room. Yeah. I took a pill in the room. Yeah. I took a pill in the room. Yeah. It's a dangerous ritual. So first off, you have to consume a lot of creek water,
which is, as we all know, best enjoyed responsibly.
Hard was already at it.
Boy, oh boy.
I didn't notice you were stumbling a little bit.
I'm back through responsible tonight.
Secondly, if you die while you're on this vision quest,
you don't come back.
Your spirit just haunts the elemental plane.
Now, I can make preparations to send you off
tomorrow morning, but only if you're willing to accept the danger. This is a vision quest for you
to get to speak to nature itself in a raw chaotic world. I mean, yes, I'm in. My question is,
I mean, yes, I'm in. My question is, you got any tips for how to endure
a chaotic, natural energy?
You got to dominate them, jome that you can command them.
So we have to dominate and command all four.
You have to beat them if you want their powers.
You can just be one and come back,
but that would be, you know, kind of lame.
I don't know.
If you want just like some water powers, it's fine.
Oh, jeez.
I guess.
I don't know.
When me and Old Cob went back in the day, we beat all of them.
Whoa.
Old Cob, you went there?
Yeah, there was a long time ago.
Dude, do a cool elemental magic for us.
Oh, you only get to use it once.
Oh, okay, got you.
But it was all on the way.
It was a man, Old Cob.
I trust you.
It was, my gun was a water gun.
Oh, don't.
But it's got like magic good.
It's like magic good water, all right? I'm super, super. I'm gun. Oh, it's hot. But it's got like margaboo worse. Magic good water, all right?
All right, all right.
Super so cool.
Not a super silker.
I'd love to see you go in a town with a super silker.
It's not, it ain't a super silker, dammit.
Sounds fun on a summer day.
It's not fun.
It wasn't fun.
Do that in a crocodile mouth.
It's not flippin' old cop.
Leave me alone.
There's been a rough couple days for me.
You want to tease someone, tease Balnor.
Yes, that's Beverly.
I will be teased for you.
All right.
Go on, mock my mustache.
I just never mind these little two-eager.
It's like this goat man when they want it.
You don't want to do it.
Take all the fun out of it.
Either way I'm in.
Yeah, I'm in.
Absolutely.
Wait, hold on.
I grabbed the speaking stone, which we still have, I believe.
The speaking stone has like a certain range.
You're not going to be able to like, I was going to call my mom to see if it was okay
if I did the ritual.
We can send you, I got an animal messenger.
You want to write out a message for her?
You know what? I'll just send her a postcard.
You leave her a voicemail on the speaking stone.
Now you know what?
She goes back and range she'll hear it.
You know what, I'm a junior green night now.
I'm a Kitalpa Kadet, the first rank of the junior green nights.
And I don't need my mom's permission anymore.
We can do this.
I took a pill and boomia.
Damn right, now old Cobb does think you're cool.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
I think you're cool.
I think you're cool too. Now I don't know if it's his hand on your shoulder. Huh.
He's wet.
Sorry, it's nervous. I have social anxiety.
Really, really wet. The possums were talking and they were, I was scared, I think I was scared of possums in my other life.
I'm like a little worried to, you know when you trip and someone's kind of lame I'm worried that balan was gonna be the lame guy who has a bad trip
We're gonna go on it. I think we should go on the trip without balan
Do we have any yeah, do you have any errands that you need balan order run?
We can take care of balan or here. Let's do are we gonna go in the morning? Are we going right now?
I mean are you guys at full health with with all your- We should rest up.
Yeah, let's rest up.
While you're out, while you're on your vision quest,
no time will be passing.
Oh, great.
Oh, great.
A lot less time.
You might be out for like an hour,
but be there for like two days.
We'll be back in time for the crawfish boil.
You'll be back in time for the crawfish boil.
Oh, wait, no, no, no.
Two days.
Well, there's a crawfish boil every night.
Okay.
Yeah.
Okay, yeah.
All right, let's get in the bed and get like crack a dom tripping.
Wait, where do we sleep?
Everyone, come on over to my stuff.
I'm talking about one big stuff.
One big stuff!
One big stuff!
One big stuff!
One big stuff!
Hard cut to a very small stump.
We aren't all gonna fit.
We aren't, we aren't.
As you guys go, you say goodnight to Mimon, Mom, Mom.
I bow.
All Cobb goes, I think I might stay in my stump, deny if that's all right with everybody.
You've been gone from home for a long time, God.
Yeah, we understand.
That's right, looks off pensively towards the fog.
Oh, Laura.
Maribou.
And then he walks over to his stump.
I don't know if Cobb should be alone tonight.
Ballnor.
I think he's tired.
I'll keep an eye on him.
Just don't go and just stare in his window all night.
Yes, sir.
Good man, I'll go keep Garde of Old Cobb.
Ballnor goes and walks, follows Old Cobb. You're part of the of ol' cop. Boundore goes and walks, follows ol' cop.
You're part of the team, Boundore.
Valuable member.
What's his weirdo doing behind me?
Get out of your Boundore, rest up, cop.
It's gonna bring you water at night if you need some.
That's right, Boundore and ol' cop walk off.
This episode of NADPOT has brought to you by Bird Dogs.
They're a company that makes pants and shorts, so no matter where you fall in the age
old battle between the two, you can rest assured that Bird Dogs has you covered.
Now we all know when the legwear war begins and we're forced to choose a side, it's
gonna be difficult.
Luckily Bird Dogs has made the decision of which pants and shorts to buy a little easier.
Bird Dogs stretchy khakis are designed to fit slimmer through the thigh and leg to give
you a truly sculpted look.
And instead of making their clothes out of restricting cotton, Bird Dog's invented a cloud
knit fabric that looks just like khaki, but stretches so you get a way slimmer fit without
having to sacrifice movement.
And trust me, you are going to need all the movement you can get when you and your brothers
and legs are out there on the battlefield kicking the shit out of your rivals.
So when the lower body battle begins and brother is forced to kick brother, make sure you
are wearing bird dogs.
To get yours and a free Yeti style tumbler, go to birddogs.com slash pop-up or enter promo
code pop-up at checkout.
That's birddogs.com slash pop or promo code Papa for a free Yeti
style tumbler. You won't want to take your bird dogs off. We promise you. Okay, that's
it for me. Go team pants and enjoy the show.
Cool. Can we go in your stump? Yeah. Welcome.
Moonshine, what does your stump look like? Oh, I haven't even thought about this.
So I think that way.
Well, you've been got a long time, right?
Yeah.
You open it and there is another Crick Elf in there.
Just sleeping on the ground.
Just food wrappers everywhere.
Okay, first up, I give them a little kick.
And I'm like, first up, you know what I'm the most angry about?
What's that?
You didn't realize there was a Murphy bed sleeping
on the floor and then I take a bed out from the wall.
Oh dang, I've been sleeping down here for six months.
I didn't even notice.
And I went through all your cabinets.
I know, pains me to know that you were sleeping
at my stuff and you weren't even getting a good night's sleep.
Hey guys, doing a Billy Joe.
Hey there, hard one.
Hey, nice to meet you.
All right, we all going a bit.
I was already sleeping, so good night, Boone John.
Yeah, nice.
Billy Joe just goes, crumbles back on the ground
and goes to sleep, still not in the Murphy bed.
I take it.
I take it.
I think that my crickstump is like whenever you see
like a documentary about tiny houses
and they all have like lots of little things
that like fold out.
So I think I like fold out a bathtub for anyone who wants it.
I fold out the Murphy bed.
I fold out like a little like oven.
I just like fold a bunch of shit out.
I fold out a toilet and I'm like,
I don't know, sometimes passing strangers want to use this.
Very helpful.
It's full of acorns.
This Crick-A-L Billy Joe's has been like collecting acorns
but he's been there. I don't take none of of acorns. This is Crick-L-Billy Joe's. There's been like collecting acorns but he's putting them there.
I don't take none of my acorns.
They're all yours, Billy Joe.
Oh, thank you.
I take his acorns.
He's snoring already.
So wait, yeah, we got one big bed.
What's the, we're all in the Murphy bed?
Yeah.
Let's curl up.
One big bed, curl up.
I call the middle.
Yeah, just be real quick.
Does everyone feel good about going to this elemental plane?
I don't want to make anyone do anything
that they're not comfortable doing.
My name's Elias Stormborn.
I'm ready for this chaos.
OK, OK.
Oh, I should have introduced you that way.
I'll tell the gods when we get there.
I think gods, elementals.
They're like Titans.
They're sort of gods.
It's tight.
I'll tell the Titans.
Whoa.
I've had a Titan before.
I mean, I owe y'all my life.
Okay.
You've helped me rescue everyone
to care about and go later on.
I'll follow you to the end of the earth.
Okay, oh wow.
All right.
I just might have to.
Yeah, I love, that's so sweet.
Papa gets up in the middle with all you guys.
Okay. You guys all going to bed?
Yeah. Going to bed. Cool. Go to bed. We just really want to get to the elemental play.
Yeah. You play the final fantasy, go to sleep noise. Hard one, sleep walks over to Balnor.
Bal. How much imagined Balnor begin the big bad evil guy,
had him kill all the top in the night.
Oh, no!
Oh, no!
Run into the fog.
I do wake up in the middle of the night to use the restroom.
Sure.
I noticed that there isn't a curtain to close off the toilet,
so I just get back into bed and hold it.
Hey, see Billy Joe's in there anyway,
looking for his egg cords everywhere, making a lot
of noise.
Alright.
Those are thought to put them in the eye.
Well, good night.
Good night.
I'm up.
I only had to sleep for four hours.
Oh, I don't like you just being up in here.
I'm transit, I'm transit.
He climbs up the ladder and goes out the top of the stump and leaves it open.
There's a draft, some manor flies fly in.
No, it's beautiful.
So you guys sleep through the night, sun rises,
and it is the morning.
I'm running over.
I want to get to this elemental.
Crawfish breakfast to go.
Oh, yeah.
Crawfish, crawfish, breakfast ladders.
We got eggs, bacon, and crawfish.
Crawfish muffins suck into brown out.
Yeah, you see?
Putting a little crick water in my coffee,
and we're out, let's go.
Ooh, okay, can I try some coffee?
Yep.
That was never a coffee before.
Oh, you're right, he's gonna be hyped up.
Hell yeah!
That's yeah, that's so good.
That's so good.
That's so good.
It's another walk me down.
Yeah. Cool, so, yeah, you so good. That's another walk me down.
Yeah.
Cool.
So, yeah, you guys wake up and you do see that the spawn fire is still going.
Craig Hubs are making breakfast and everything.
Mama does come get you guys in the morning, the possum.
And she walks over to your little stomp and says, follow me, we're going to a different
fire for our ritual.
Okay. The fire in our hearts and also a smaller fire for the ritual.
Literally you are. Yes, she winks at you. So momaw the possum, this is very confusing.
Leaves you guys a deeper east into the woods and you see that Mimaw has gathered a bunch of the old folks, these older Crick Elves.
Munchen, you would know this as the old folks circle.
They're sort of the elder cricks.
And they're in a circle around a bundle of sticks.
They all wear ceremonial branches in their hair like antlers,
and everybody is totally nude.
Olkov is there, he's also nude.
Oh, Valnor.
Valnor. You don't look a day over 300. Hey, thanks. Newed old cob is there. He's also nude Oh, no, no
Balnor you don't look a day over 300
Hey, thanks. Yeah, old cops pretty cut
He's definitely got a few scars you have a V. Oh, yeah, he's got a V
He's got a vicious V Balnor is there in boxer shorts. He's a little nervous. I like look to moonshine and I'm like, do we?
And I start jester.
You see they've all gotten mud smeared on their face. They invite you guys to join them
around this little bundle of sticks. And meanwhile goes, you don't have to get new. That's just
something we do. Hard one's already naked. Well. Well, you can just go down to your boxer's son.
They said that was fine.
I've been caught a little bit.
Yeah, I guess I stripped down to my boxer.
Okay. So am I not going? Am I not going?
Bound n' or asks.
We need you here.
It's not that we don't need you.
It's not that we don't need you.
We need old Cobb a lot more.
Right on, right on.
You know what, we had you,
we had you serve such an important job
last night watching Cobb that you get the day off.
You gotta rest.
He kept talking to me.
He kept trying to have conversations about life and stuff,
asking me what my deal was.
What's my deal?
Bound or? Get, get, Ballnor, get.
Look, I'm yelling at Ballnor.
Ballnor, don't leave.
Don't leave.
I like that.
You could be swallowed by a bully walking anytime.
I smell a bromance.
So Mima goes, Ballnor can stay here and watch you guys and make sure you're, uh, you're
all good.
Although ultimately it's your choice whether you leave the elemental plane or not. That's, that's sure you're all good. Although ultimately it's your choice
whether you leave the elemental plane or not.
That's on you, not us.
We can't wake you up from here.
I'll just don't let me get any mosquito bites.
Well, I'm out.
I will defeat every mosquito that comes near you.
Keep us slathered in deep.
He pulls a sword out and wins.
He's dangerously close to you as a bug comes near you.
It's a lot of with your head, Alan Moore.
Oh no, Alan Moore.
Right, yes sir.
You're gripping that sword by the sword side.
Oh, ow.
Yes, that hurts my hand.
You see, Mima takes out a little cold drink
and puts it on the bundle of sticks.
She pours water from a skin into it,
then lights the branches on fire underneath it. You see the water begins to
bubble. She then takes a speck of dirt, places it in the water, and there's a little sizzle and smoke.
She pulls the cauldron off the fire, blows the smoke away with a big gust of air.
Wink, wink, wink, wink. She then walks over to you guys with the cauldron and says,
wink. She then walks over to you guys with a cold drink and says, Are you ready to face the elementals, to battle nature itself?
Yes.
Absolutely.
If you drink this, you'll enter a trance, and you'll find yourself in the elemental chaos.
If you ever want to break your trance, you can, but you won't be able to go back and help your friends.
Once you come out, you're out. What's your safe word?
Are safe words?
Yeah, what are you saying to get out?
With ours.
Oh, you have to determine that now.
Mine will be the name of my axe, Gemma.
Alright.
Mine's also going to be Gemma.
Okay.
Gemma's the safe word. Mine's Gemma to meet Jim. Okay. Jim is the safe word.
Mine's Jim with a J.
Okay, Jim with a J.
You have to yell Jim with a J.
You got that cup.
I got it.
All right, then y'all, let's get started.
You see, Mima begins directing traffic.
She gets all the old folks to stand in two lines.
They all pull the branches from their hair
and hold them out to make a little human tunnel. Mima walks through, holding the cold drink while they all chant in the
druidic language. You feel the wind begin to pick up and it begins raining. There are
tremors in the earth as you feel it shake. The small fire that was heating the cauldron
before suddenly bursts into a roaring flame. Mima reaches the end of the Crick-Earth tunnel
and motions for you guys to pass through.
And as you reach her, she offers up the cauldron and goes,
all right, y'all, take a sip.
We'll watch your bodies.
Sipper a huff.
Take a sip, okay?
I take out a wooden straw and a certain sip.
Moonshan goes down instantly.
Hard one looks at that.
He's like, hell, yeah, scoops him with his hand.
Drinks.
You pass out.
Yeah, I pull up my little cup that's attached to my backpack.
Oh.
I take a sip.
Drinks some pass out, old Cobb.
Take some, passes out.
See you guys.
Oh, and Papa was licking the dribbles from my chin.
Okay, got it.
Papa also goes out.
You see that happened right after Moon Shine.
He flopped real far.
Mom all had to catch him.
My son.
My little scramble man.
So you guys fall asleep.
And then you awaken in a field of grass during a terrible storm.
The wind a whips around you.
There's thunder, lightning. You see tornadoes ripping up the rocky side of a mountain.
It looks like Armageddon. This is a place where the elements run wild.
Above you, the sky is full of lightning. To the west, there's a fearsome sea with giant waves crashing.
To the east, you see a volcano explode and lava filling the air.
And the whole eastern side
Over by that volcano was covered in ash and to the north you see mountains
With a valley like a path in between
That seems nice
Well, this looks completely different the last time I was here man. They fuck this place up. Who's they the fucking element the Titans
Man, you listen to the story time I was here man they fucked this place up. Who's they? The fucking Ellen the Titans man
you listen to the story. I don't know who else lives here. Nobody else lives here. It's just the
the weather. Oh jeez. I feel strangely at home here. Yeah. I pull out of my umbrella.
Nightingale comes out right now. Beverly I'm assuming you have a really expensive umbrella. Oh yeah.
Oh yeah. Oh it turns inside out instead. Oh no! That was inside out instant oh you got a fancy
rain stopper you got to put that away kid does it pull me with it so we got
established dominance y'all want to start with air water or a volcano hmm should we
flip a coin? Or Earth.
Uh, you know me.
I'm a man of the mountain.
Let's start, okay, let's start with Earth.
Oh, that's true.
All right.
Yeah.
Don't, so you guys are starting to walk towards the mountains?
Yep.
Yep, cool.
So you guys start walking towards the mountains.
And this is, this is like the worst storm
you guys have ever fucking been in.
Like, Bev, you as like a small creature are, you know,
probably having to hang on to hard one a little bit
to not get blown away.
And you guys are walking at almost like half speed
just to get through all the wind.
I pull out my backup umbrella.
That one also.
He's not sweeping.
If you have a third umbrella, leave it in your pack.
He does.
He's putting it back in.
It was already half out.
So you guys, so occasionally there are tremors,
like earthquakes, as you guys are walking.
And the tremors get more and more powerful
as you get closer to these mountains.
And you see rocks and boulders falling from the mountain
onto the path below.
And once you approach and get close enough to the mountains where you're about to like
walk the path of the valley, you see about 300 feet ahead of you, a rock structure that
looks like some kind of crude temple.
And you see that the tremors and earthquakes are emanating from there.
You hear loud booms and you see sonic energy like leaving the temple and exploding out
into the valley.
I say we march towards this temple.
Cool.
Yeah.
You guys start to go in.
Earthquakes start getting worse.
Everybody roll initiative.
Okay.
Okay.
So you got everybody remember their speed because this is a like running encounter trying
to get as far as you can.
Really? Yeah.
21.
Okay.
I got a 23.
Yeah.
10.
So the way this encounter is going to work, you guys have to run the 300 feet to get into
this temple and get away from these like falling rocks and tremors and everything.
There are going to be layer actions on 2015, 10 and 5.
And I'm going to roll the D4 to see what happens.
Or I'll let you guys roll the D4
in front of the table just for fun,
and I'll tell you that on a four, nothing happens.
So it's like stasis.
But someone with a higher speed is gonna be safer.
Yeah.
Because you're running,
you're trying to run as fast as you can.
You've got 300 feet to cover.
You can take a full dash action,
but if you get hit by a rock
or something, you might get knocked prone.
We'll see what happens.
I'm gonna go ahead before we interproppally them. Already and you're already in. Go ahead, Moon- or something, you might get knocked prone. We'll see what happens. I'm going to go ahead before we interpropylene already and you're already in.
Go ahead, Moonshine, you're flailing.
I'm going to use a third level long strider on YouTube and Olca.
Woo-hoo!
Okay.
How much speed does that give them?
Target speed increases by 10 feet for an hour.
Okay.
Most of these guys have 30.
30? Olca has 30 as well. I have 24. 40. Okay, so most of these guys have 30, 30, okay, all
cop has 30 as well. I have 25, 40. Okay, so you have 35 and
moonshine is 35. Yeah, they're okay. Okay. So I think I think
the way I cast long strider is just by a little encouraging
pat on the butt. Okay, great. You pat everyone on the butt and
then are you starting to run? Yeah, and then I start to
run. Okay, so you took a spell action, so you can't take a
full dash action, you can just get your 35 feet. Okay, so right down that you got 35 feet. Okay, so you took a spell action so you can't take a full dash action you can just get your 35 feet. So right down that you got 35 feet. So that is hard one turn you got
a 21. Quads don't fail me now. What do you want to do? Do you want to just do full
dash? Yeah, full dash. 80 feet? Cool. So you get to go 80 feet. Since I don't know that
Moonshine cast anything I just think that with spring quads don't fill me now. We are fast. I'm the man
Somebody roll me a D4 to see what happens as you guys run into this valley
For nothing happens
There's trembles and everything but there's just little little friggin pebbles are falling down this ain't nothing y'all
Just little pebble pots little pebble pots
That is
That is actually another layer action. Oh
Because one one happens on 15 roll another D4
For a game nothing happens or a guide's us. Well, Laura does guide you. Okay, Cob goes, Cob runs 80 feet.
Damn.
That is...
Tony Teyll just whipping in the wind.
Bev, you go first and then a layer action right after.
All right.
I guess I'll just dash as well.
Beverly runs 70 feet ahead.
Mootide, roll again.
Hoi!
One.
One, okay.
I'm gonna need a worse.
The Earth cracks in the middle.
I need everyone to do a DC 15 deck saving throw
to stay standing.
Whoa.
Who's near me?
Ol' Cobb, hard one, and Beverly are way ahead of us.
Okay, Moonchang.
Because Aura of protection will apply to them.
Great, okay.
Oh, it's Aura of protection?
Whenever you are a friendly creature within 10 feet,
must make a saving throw.
The creature gains a bonus to the saving throw equal to your charisma modifier
So that's plus four sweet. Hey, okay, so it's not it's not it's not advantage just a plus four. Yeah, okay cool
I
I can beat it you said it was 15 right? Oh, I got a 17
Okay, you got a 17 you're good. I got a 10. You got a 10. You and Old Cobb fall down.
Uh-oh.
As the Earth shakes, Beverly and Old Cobb fall over.
Oh, we just fall over.
You just fall over. You're knocked prone.
But then you need to use an action to stand up.
Ah.
Yeah, you'll need to use half your movement to stand up.
How am I shins looking? Did I skin them?
You certainly skinned your skin.
I'm saying.
Ah.
The sticks.
So that's another roll and other D4.
I know that. The sticks. So that's another roll, another D4. Another one.
You see the fissure in the middle of the valley
gets a little bit bigger.
Moonshine and Hard one, DC 15 decks saving third of stay up.
Hard one, you get the extra four
because you're near Bev.
I got it.
It's not gonna help.
Okay.
Moonshine stays up.
Hard one, you fall over.
Cobb and Bev are just rolling around with the ground.
We're like two potatoes in a pot.
Two earthquakes, fissures again.
Line your balance, it's in your core.
My core is so small.
That is back around to Moonshine.
Full dash action.
Full dash action, so that's 70 for you.
Yeah.
Okay, so you're at like around a hundred. Yeah cool dope
That's hard one's turn. I got to get back up and then keep running cool
So you get up that's half your speed you run another 40 feet keep right that down and I will roll a D4 for the next layer
Action and I got a four so nothing happens

I got 13 plus four with disadvantage.
Yes.
Okay, sweet.
And what does O'Cob get with the, he gets plus four?
Yeah, next to you.
Sweet.
Oh, that's a charisma modifier, yep.
Awesome.
He beats the 10 because of the plus four, even with disadvantage.
So you and O'Cob are laying there.
This rock comes down and you guys just roll out of the way.
We're like, as the rock lands right between you.
There's like two big sloppy pieces this beginning.
That is Olcobbs turn. Olcob gets up and runs another 40 feet.
That is Bev's turn.
Okay, I'm going to try and do that thing where you're on your back and you kind of roll
up and then you hop up onto your feet.
Sure.
Don't, cool.
And then I'll just do a dash for there.
So you can do a full dash, you can just do your speed.
So 35.
Okay.
Cause it's like half your movement to stand up.
Yeah, yeah.
So I do 35 more, which puts me at 105, I guess.
Cool.
That is two layer actions in a row.
How are you rolling? Yes, I'll roll them. One, that's two layer actions in a row.
Oh, are you rolling?
Yes, I'll roll them.
One, that's the bad one.
Earthquake, again, the fissure grows even bigger.
I need everybody to do dexated grows.
Where are you, what foot are you at?
I'm at 105.
Oh, I get your word of courage.
Hey, hey, oh, sweet.
And I'm not reading that wrong.
I get that every time, too.
Yeah, I just get, of course.
Nice.
Yeah, you're just good at stuff
Ooh 19 plus four sweets. I got
15 plus four
19 19 you're gonna not 20 no matter
It's just cool that I have you time it out so you jump when the tremors start
Well, you just you barely even feel it dude. Can he just be not prone anymore? I wasn't prone it
I use nice yeah with this third major earthquake the fissure is now big enough that if you fail like another deck saving throw in a big way, you might fall down.
Hmm.
What's down there?
You see-
We don't know.
You see nothing, just a bis.
That is-
Okay, that's one more layer action.
And that's a three. That's boulders roll from ahead of you guys.
It's a DC 14 deck saving throw.
It would have been easier at the beginning
because you guys had more room and the ball would have moved.
I have to add one, you can push some out of the way.
Ooh, sure, yeah, you can grab somebody.
If anyone had a fist.
Pick your best friend to grab.
What was it?
No!
If anyone fails, I'll grab.
What would it have to be?
14 toe.
All right, good.
You're grabbing best.
What if I got a 14?
Then you're safe.
You're good.
I got a four plus four, so I got an eight.
OK, I get scoops.
I get scoops.
Because we're at 105 together.
All right, with a Nat 20, I'll say that you can scoop
Bev at the last second.
Oh, Cobb also saves.
So you guys all jump to the left, avoid this fissure,
while this boulder rolls by you guys.
That is back up to moonshine.
Fold dash.
Fold dash.
Are you still holding me?
I'm gonna say you're gonna need to put down Beverly Leeda dash
because you're not like a big bulky.
A disc.
Hard one.
I understand.
Okay, 175.
175, you're getting close.
That is hard one's turn.
Fold dash, that puts me a two-hundo.
Two-hundo.
Oh! Hard one gets me fast. You made me fast. I'm ready in case I'm ball. Oh shit. Yeah, that puts me a two-hundo. Two-hundo. Oh!
Hard one gets me fast.
You made me fast.
I'm ready in case I'm a ball.
Oh shit, that's really smart.
Yeah, you don't need to use an action
and not do a full dash if somebody wants to do a rope
or something.
Okay, that is a layer action.
That is a three.
Another boulder rolls from ahead.
Everybody give me a deck saving throw.
Be the 14.
Is anyone near me?
Yes, just a little cob.
Just a little cob.
Okay, well, just me and you a cob finally.
A little cob passes. I got another net. Holy shit! No, scoop old Cobb. Just old Cobb. Okay, just me and you old Cobb. Old Cobb passes.
I got another net.
Holy shit.
No, scoop old Cobb.
Even though we passed.
You can pull hard one back if he fails.
No, I passed.
I got a 16.
Great.
I got a 19.
19.
Everybody moves to the side as this boulder of old past you.
Can't you believe that scoop is a scoop reaction?
Can I scoop a really friendly looking rock?
Munchan, you do another split, but over the fissure.
Oh, that's my treat to you.
Oh, that is Olcobs turn.
Olcobs.
Full dash runs ahead.
He's at 200.
That is.
I'm going to get 200.
300.
That is Bet's turn.
All right, cool.
Yeah, full dash.
Full dash.
Go for it.
That's 70 for you, I think?
Yeah, that's 70.
So I'm at 175.
Cool.
Bev runs to 175.
That is two layer actions in a row.
Let's see what happens in this mountain.
One.
Another earthquake.
Guys, give me DC 15 Dex saving throw to stay standing.
16.
16.
Wait, what are you at right now, Beth?
So I can get the four.
I'm at 175.
Is anyone here?
Oh, great.
12 was 16.
16.
Okay, seven.
Seven.
You fall prone.
The earthquake shakes you over to the fissure
and you are hanging on over the fissure right now.
If another earthquake happens, that would be very bad.
That is another layer action.
Hope it's not an earthquake.
It is not an earthquake.
It is a boulder.
So another boulder rolls from a head.
Everybody give me a deck save.
Bev, you don't need to worry
because you're hanging off into the abyss.
Is this a normal boulder?
Does it have like a face on it?
It's just a normal boulder.
What's the save we need?
Dex save now with what did we say there were four earthquakes?
That is a
17 so it's definitely not a go-or-on
I got a net one. Oh
Got a net one. Do I still add bebs modifier? Thank you
I know yeah, you're not close enough. I am near him.
Okay.
And my nat one does become with Bev's help,
and my decks, it does become a eight.
Okay.
But it's a nat one.
So it is.
Moonshine, you are...
Oh wait, so it would hit hard one first.
I failed, yeah it is.
You failed, you failed.
Okay, so hard one, it hits you first.
You take...
You take 13 damage.
How much did you fail by?
I got a 14.
14, you do not fall into the fizzier, but it bashes into your shoulder.
It's not as bad as you think.
And moonshine, pleasant warmth rising from the bottom.
moonshine, you take, tickles my toes, 16 damage from the boulder,
and it knocks you into the fizzure as you grab on over the edge. It also hits cob
for nine
16 damage, but he does not he same thing kind of happens hard one. He just gets hit with it
That is back up to moonshine moonshine. You can do like a
Strength check to pull yourself up
uh, strength check to pull yourself up. You're that.
Ooh.
17.
17.
You pull yourself right back up.
If you had rolled like poorly, it would have,
you would have like really struggled and not been able to run.
You basically like get up from being prone and you could now run half your,
or you can run your full speed.
Moonshine, remember,
are presidential fitness exam.
Haha.
Um, so I can run 70, because it's double.
No, just, just, just half. Okay. Okay, so. Basically pulled yourself up from prone. You could also maybe help's double. No, just just half.
Okay, so.
Basically pulled yourself off from prone.
You could also maybe help me out.
You could also help out.
Oh, I can use my action to do that.
Yeah, I want to try and help out.
Okay, go ahead.
I'll allow that just as an action.
You pull Bev out from the fissure.
Two scoops of raisins.
That is hard one's turn.
All right, hard one gives you guys the,
actually the awkward peace sign.
And I'll
take, I'll continue with my full. I don't know why that finger's crooked. Cool. I'm close,
guys. Where do you at? 280. Close. Okay, that is layer action. Two layer actions. Where
are the cop goes? That is a four. Nothing happens. You're good.
I'm a little bit there.
One more.
Two fours.
That is a two.
That is rocks falling down from above you.
You guys need a DC 10 deck save to avoid having a rock fall on you.
Come on.
Keep in that DC talk.
A little bit.
I'm with my boy, babe, so I pass.
Okay, what do you say, DC 10?
DC 10, hell yeah, passed.
You know, I'm scooping you up,
but you're also saving me with your aura of courage.
Hey, who's scooped two?
This is like doubles tennis.
That's what friends scoop each other.
Mixed doubles.
So you got friendship as ice cream
and you gotta scoop your frame when you can.
That's on one of the pillows.
What's the Sunday without more in one scoop?
That is around two Cobbs turn, Cobb.
Full dash, Cobb is at 280 as well.
Look at that, it's a full dash.
Look at that, it's a fry thing, go.
That is, yeah.
Hey, Cobb!
Right, it's so fast.
Yeah, you saw me naked before, right, I was cut.
You still got it.
I'm cut.
I'm a cardio bunny.
Yeah, it's got that runner sacrabadi.
Quit praying for my grandpa.
That is Bev's turn. All right, I try to keep up with old Cobb.
Cool.
Go ahead and you can do full dash action.
If you like.
Full dash, she's, that's gonna be 70 more.
So that puts me at 245.
So, right?
245, sure.
Yeah.
Okay, cool.
So Bebs said 245, these guys are at 280.
Moonshine's back, right?
175.
175, okay.
Let's do the one that made us fast.
Two layer actions.
I'm afraid.
One, the fissure gets even bigger.
Go ahead and give me deck saves, guys.
I do not pass.
How much do you fail by?
So DC's up to 21 now,
because there's been so many earthquakes.
I failed, I have 13.
So you're okay, you just fall over.
I got 13, 13. Okay, I'm down. You you fall over but you do not fall in the fissure
I do
O'Cobb also falls over
But does not fall in the fissure did a whoopsie that is
Layer action that's a four nothing happens on that one that is back up to moonshine moonshine. You've got your prone running
Oh get up and then I guess I'm only runin' 35.
Okay, you run 35 feet, get up, get up.
Takes me up to 210.
That's you.
I'm also gonna, can I also just tie rope around my waist?
Heh, I will allow that.
Okay.
That is hard once turn.
So I was knocked, prone I think, was I built?
Yeah.
You got a 17.
Yep.
So I guess I get up, can can use half but I get there cool
You get into the temple do are you running back? Are you just leaving your dudes behind? What are you doing?
So I want to get up to the temple and then
Toss moonshine grappling hook. Okay. Go ahead and give me an athletics check. Oh, yeah 90 feet
Oh shit, I had an eight athletics
17 okay, yeah it in fucking good. Munchine, the grappling hook, claws into the wall of the temple steps right now. Yeah, great. That is a boulder goes rolls from ahead.
Go ahead and give me Dex saves, guys.
Any faces on this one?
No faces, but I do see it was graffiti.
18 is actually not going to do it.
There's been so many earthquakes
that you guys are on just a little sliver land.
I got 16 old cops are going gonna get hit with this too.
16 does not do it.
Hey, it's 13.
13.
Okay, everybody gets hit for, we'll just roll once for this.
19 damage.
Older barrels through you guys.
It is a boulder.
It is indeed a boulder.
That's Old Cobb's turn.
Old Cobb is gonna rush up on the steps with hard one there, and he also grabs the rope that hard one has,
and he's gonna prepare to help you pull them
if Moonshine wants to grab onto the rope.
Uh, that is Bev's turn.
So where's the rope?
I'm past the rope, aren't I?
Where are you at Moonshine?
I'm at 210.
You're at 210, where are you Bev?
I'm at 245.
Okay, the rope is at 220, 10 feet two twenty ten feet in front of Munchang.
If hard one is on the stairs. Yeah, you can grab the rope. I can it's a rope. It's like yeah, you can absolutely grab the rope.
I'm like that. Yeah, let me grab the rope and start shimmyin. Okay, you grab the rope. You're gonna be slower shimmyin
but you're not gonna like fall into the fizzier. Alright, execute shimmy maneuver. Okay, so you jump on to the rope.
Us green teens are champion shimmyers.
The little guy above.
Okay, I think you just move,
I think you just do half your movement.
So if you do like almost like a full dash action,
but on the rope, you just move 35 feet.
Cool, cool.
So you are shimmying across on a rope.
280 now, 280.
Perfect, that is, I'm coming for you. I'm shimmying two layer actions
four thank goodness and
Three another folder rolls down everybody give me a deck saving throw
It's it's kind of like almost impossible to pass at this point. Yeah, wait. Do I need to do it?
You don't need to do it. Yeah, I'm sh're not a good one. I'm shimmy zone 23.
Do that pass it?
23 passes, yes.
Nice.
I got a 19.
You got a 19.
Okay, so you just get hit with it
and you take the damage.
O'Cob rolled a one.
So O'Cob, so that is three.
It might be down based on the same.
Cob hide behind my quads.
It's actually only, I rolled 46 as I rolled,
two twos and two one,
so it's only six damage, but Olkop does fall.
Oh wait, no, Olkop's up on the stairs,
so Olkop just falls prone,
but Olkop does not fall on the fissure,
because he's passed that.
Thank goodness, because ones are bad.
Where's Olkop at?
He's up on the stairs with hard one.
Oh, okay, so he was holding onto the rope,
and he let's it go.
He gets it with this thing. It's all right. I'm super strong
That is one more. Oh wait. I did both their actions great back up to moonshine
Okay
I'm just gonna run as far as I can and then jump on to that rope. Okay, great
So does that mean that I run 70 or does that mean that I can only run 35?
You can run 70 and then jump onto the rope?
Yeah, so I'm running 70 so then I'm jumping on the rope at 280
280 okay, you guys are both on the rope at two. Oh, yeah, you guys are so dang close
Okay, so I met 280 feet so I'm with Bev and I'm just gonna like Bev hold this and I hand him the other side of the rope that I tied to myself
Now it actually means something or maybe I just tie it to his waist so we're like buddies
without permission.
Tadam climbers.
Where are our ice climbers now?
Yeah.
Okay, so hard one, you're holding onto this rope.
These guys are shimming across.
What do you do?
I think if you yank it, that will actually probably put
them in more danger.
I guess I'll just prepare a reaction.
Maybe I'll ready another rope to toss down if anything happens to the grappling hook.
Okay, cool.
Hard one, surefoot.
The two rope master.
I'll just picture you double-dutching with like fake gas ropes.
I've got to have Phil 6.
That is two-layer actions.
That is rocks fall down from above you guys so the people on the ropes are in danger.
So everybody give me DC 10 deck save.
I pass.
17.
Perfect.
Pass, okay.
Olkov is actually prone. so he does get hit.
He gets hit with rocks for 14 damage, and he is actually pinned under a rock.
He failed big time. He got like crushed by a rock.
Oh, oh god, this terrible.
Oh no.
Damn it, come.
People bone structure. It's not on those beautiful pelvis bone lines, right?
We don't want that shit to come.
Oh, cause your V.
That is actually
uh oh wait another layer action more rocks fall from above you guys deck save
ooh I get and hit I got a
what you get what you get I got a nine. Plus the charisma. Yeah, that's with the charisma.
I got.
I got to shout out to the two crew.
Shout out to the two crew.
I'll take these rocks in your arms.
Okay, if you murder a success and you,
what did you get?
I got 15 plus four, 19.
19.
Hard one, what did you get?
11.
Okay, you do not get hit by rocks.
You're able to move out of the way
because it was only DC 10.
Moon shine.
I might just fall from the rope if I go unconscious.
This is eight, 12 damage.
I'm down.
Oh no.
Can I like at least grab her hand as she falls?
Bev, you see Moonshine falls behind you.
Like she's going down into the fissure,
but the rope catches, do a strength check
to see if you can roll hanging on to both of you guys.
My mind is just dangling from you.
It's time for the faded reverse scoop.
Just like a dead toddler.
What do I add to that?
Athletics.
Okay, 14.
14, you're good.
She's not super heavy, she's a Crick Alpha.
I was just gonna do it at a 10, just don't roll bad.
Okay, so Cobb is gonna have to do a strength check
because he's stuck under a boulder right now.
He's having a hard time.
He rolls a freaking one, he's still under his boulder,
he's stuck there.
That is Bev's turn.
Okay, I guess I pull her back up and then I touch answer.
Oh, okay, dope. Moonshanine you pop back up. So what do I
get for touch hands? 30. Yep. What the heck? Sweet. 6 levels, baby. So you can still take your
movement. You can probably get to the end now to the stairs. All right, or you can prepare to run
with moonshine when she goes, whatever you want. I check in with moonshine. How you feeling? Fantastic thanks to you, young
babe. You ready to shimmy? Yeah! Hemi, bimmy, bimmy. Let's get a shimmy. Yeah, I run across.
So you guys are only like 20 feet away. I'll say, Bavley hands you. You guys shimmy the other
20 feet. Bav could probably even pull you that.
And you guys get to these stairs
and you're on the stairs of this temple,
rocks flying everywhere.
You're out of this encounter,
unless you stick around here a long time,
Olkop is under a giant rock.
Help me with the stone!
Oh, okay, yeah, yeah.
We all push.
Cool, you guys push easily with all three of you guys,
you guys are able to push the rock off of old
cob. Let's go inside. I like foot stealthing. Let's
stealth. Yeah. You guys are stealthing. Okay go ahead and roll me stealth rolls.
I'm gonna cast Pass Without Trace. Okay. On us. So you everyone gets plus 10
to their stealth roll. 18. 18. I got 21. 17. Oh shit. No I got way more than 21. I got oh just 23
24
That's way more pretty good. Oh cop. Oh cop got a 22. Let's see what this guy gets for his little wisdom check
Not good enough to see y'all with your pass without trace
So you guys are right now you're on the steps of the Earth Temple. There's all this chaos around you, rocks crashing,
boulders rolling.
At the top of the steps, you do see an open doorway
with some torch light inside.
And with your pass without trace,
you guys are able to slip in amongst the chaos
and find an area of the room that is cloaked in shadow.
You're in this big cavern-like throne room.
It's very crude.
There aren't tapestries or decorations or anything.
But you do see sitting on a throne of stone
is this giant earth elemental much bigger than the one
you fought in Ugu's trials.
He's wearing a black plate mail and an iron crown.
He looks like he might just be sitting there waiting for you.
He's just sitting there and slamming a bald-up fist
on the arm rest of his throne.
You see the world shakes outside whenever he does it,
but there seems to be some kind of magic
keeping the temple intact.
He's just sitting there slamming his fist down.
Well, I'm just dominating him, huh?
I'm gonna walk out into the opening with my woodblock.
Start keeping time with his value.
Give me an insane persuasion, Jack.
I guess performance, Jack.
That's an 18.
18, shit.
Actually, that's a 20, I get a plus two to performance,
because I've been practicing my woodblock
So you come out from the darkness playing your woodblock and he goes huh?
Are you my court gesture?
Far from it. I'm the quad god
You a god
You a god! HA HA HA!
I am the Earl of Earth, the Sultan of Stone, the Rock Reaper, the earthquake, a guy!
Stumbled on that last one.
Yeah!
I am Elias Stormborn, aka Hard One Shorthoot, bastard of the mountain, pride of the doorfinage, the heart of iron deep,
and I need your help.
And that's where we'll end our session.
Ah!
Oh, it!
Champion of the woodblock.
Champion of the woodblock.
I was gonna come in there and like,
if you were like trying to be like,
I'm a storm god, I was gonna like,
fake some like lightning. Oh, that would be cool. If you were like trying to be like, I'm a storm god, I was gonna like fake some like lightning.
Oh, that would be cool.
I'm gonna tell you like you did it,
but I actually like your strategy.
We should have circled up,
but I just felt like the woodlock was calling to you.
I like that.
I like that.
I like to keep standing.
I like to keep standing.
Hard one keeps standing.
Hard one got that rhythm.
Yeah, wow, that rock thing was harder than I thought.
I was gonna be,
said 300 feet man.
300, she would have been 200 feet man.
I was like, oh my God, this is just the trial
to get to the bad guy and there's like three more of these
and I've already got unconscious.
Yeah, but I think that, well I guess we'll see,
but it feels like this next part of the mission
is all diplomacy.
Here's hoping.
I'm interested.
I mean, it's like, it seems like a full-on family
double there.
We've done obstacle courses.
We're gonna have to have some questions.
We're gonna have to have to stick my hand in a nose booger.
I can't wait.
Find a flag, find that flag.
