Starting point is 00:00:27 Benefits vary by card, other conditions apply. ["The Star-Spangled Banner"] Good day, all you Doric. Stone step your way into the stinky dragon, lap up our latest libation. Twist my arm and arm and arm and arm and arm and arm and arm and arm. It's a mixture of void essence espresso, squid beak syrup, tentacular gripped cream topped with a vanilla vortex vibration. One nip of this nebulous necro-nector, you'll finally have the energy to start that Cephalopodcast.
Starting point is 00:01:14 A void like the plague. Previously, our adventurers took a truth test with Weezer, stepped into Sheath's secret headquarters, paired off to procure some potent potion ingredients, and finally they found their way to Anning Amphitheater. But the alchemist wasn't alone. Draw yourself a drip, let's dive into this dank drama. I thought he died. Yeah, what happened? I thought he died.
Starting point is 00:01:47 Yeah, what happened? I was just very injured. I recovered though. Injured. Glad to see you back, Duncan. I got a little mold, but I'm fine now. Okay. Mold, huh?
Starting point is 00:02:02 I'm going to roll a check on that to see if that's telling the truth. How many arms did you say in your intro just out of curiosity? How many did you get? I didn't count. It was like eight or nine. It was eight. Eight makes sense. I rolled a 19 on the inside check.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Stunken telling the truth? Yeah, you think so. Okay. I don't think we've ever done a check on the narrator before. I don't think the narrator's ever directly talked to you. No, it's an unreliable narrator, so I don't know. Speaking of unreliable narrators, my name is Gustavo. I'm the master of our future party.
Starting point is 00:02:29 I'm going to hit our four players with an arrow. No. Okay. Never mind. Again, I don't know what to believe from you anymore. Gustavo. This week's role playing warmup question is what is your character's favorite book? Favorite book.
Starting point is 00:02:44 Bonjour. My name is John Reisinger and I play Matide Confessus. No, that is wrong. Make your mouth small. Matilde Confessus. I play Matide Confessus and my favorite book is obviously a book by a formidable woman. It is called The Joy of Cooking made by Julia Childs. Oh, I love that. I don't think that's the name of her book.
Starting point is 00:03:10 What is the name of her book? I don't know. It's like, it's French cooking for Americans, something like that. French, yeah, it's something with French in it. I guess she does not write, she does not write The Joy of Cooking. Julia, I'm trying to think. What's the mot, what's the grotesque version? I was trying to think of that too.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Wilds? Wilds? I mean... Goulia Childs. Oh, that's good. Mastering the art of French cooking. Mastering the art of French cooking. Yes, big fan of that. Apparently not big enough fan to know that name of her book, but that's okay.
Starting point is 00:03:38 It's the basic grotesque version. Yeah, there you go. Yeah. Mastering the art of... Cooking. Cooking. Barbara's bringing it today. I'll go next then since I'm bringing it. I'll bring my intro. Bring it. I'm Barbara Dunkelman and I play Elga Von broth. It's funny to turn a look at Blaine when he's doing it, it looks like he's making kissy
Starting point is 00:04:11 faces to the microphone. And Elga has a few favorite books, but lately she's really been enjoying Twilight. Tracks. Team Jacob or Team Edward? Oh, I think you know, Gustavo. Team Bella. She don't need no man. Independent woman. I don't know what Twilight's about. She very much needed a man. It was nothing without the man.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Made a weird baby. And sparkly vampires, right? Twinkly. Dogs. I think your interest in Twilight may be a hereditary thing. I think it could be. Rina Rice. She's better.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Oh, okay. I'm Barney Farney and I'm played by Chris Damaris. Wow. The human cleric. The human, what kind of cleric? Chris Damaris is the human cleric. Are you a human? What kind of cleric?
Starting point is 00:04:59 Human cleric? Twilight? There it is. Full circle. Oh, Twilight. Yes, I understand now. Yes. And my favorite character is the one who's in Twilight. What kind of cleric human cleric Twilight? Oh There it is. Oh Twilight yes, I understand now. Yes, and My favorite book has to be the book of evenfall because it it helps me
Starting point is 00:05:15 Heal people and it makes a dragon. Yeah, those are two very good things for a book to be able to drag on Yeah, and you're also using an in-world book that you actually have. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it's no Twilight. Well, it does travel around with the entire Twilight series. It's very true.
Starting point is 00:05:34 At first, my answer was going to be the encyclopedia. And then I was like, that would be heavy. All of them. But it makes sense that you would be like carrying, because you have four axes down. She just brings around the V edition of Encyclopedia. I would say the B. The B?
Starting point is 00:05:48 Blood. Med. Med. Med and blood. Barney, do you have any favorite passages or incantations from that book? Yes. Evening comes at the end of the day. It's that time when you must say good day.
Starting point is 00:06:06 Because the day has finished up, I'm gonna go and drink a cup of tea to go to bed. It just keeps going! Long forgotten something of tomorrow. What is dragon? Of a gone. Long forgotten is a gone. Then it was a dragon. What was the thing he said feed them all I don't know guys are
Starting point is 00:06:33 Music behind it and you did this long and you made Chris sound cooler than he usually is I'm trying to find that in his rap When he summoned the drag on Skateboard yes In his rap? When he summoned the dragon with the cool skateboard. Yes. As we all remember very vividly. That was really the hip one. While you look for the relevant Bible verse, yes, I'm going. No need to poke me in the nipple. Wait, your nipple was over there?
Starting point is 00:06:58 That's my third one. Hi there, I'm Blaine Gibson and I play... I'm Gipson and I play G-P the book of my own publishing. That's right. You guys didn't know this. Published off. Yes. Yes. It's the homeowners association rule book for my neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:07:37 Yeah. Yeah. I wrote that myself. What's the most commonly enforced rule in that book? Oh, I'm a real stickler on the grass high, you know, you know, you can't let the clover take over. It looks cute, but you gotta watch out cause it'll just completely consume your yard. And all your Kentucky blue is all looks like boo-boo. You know, you don't want that. But dude, I like to think that you, you know how like when people write their own book, they have like the author's like message at the front.
Starting point is 00:08:02 You're just like, Hey there, chip painting. I'm pleasure to meet you. It was actually a message to Carol. What does it say? It's dedication. It's dedicated to Carol. It's H-O-A. I know, I know I'm a bit of a romantic. Guys, hot in here. Dawn began but dusk remain. I call upon the Vesper Vane. Oh, there it is. Mine was almost as good. Yeah. Com comparable, I would say. I'm just, I'm proud of myself for remembering like the first word. Very proud of you, John. Donkey Kong?
Starting point is 00:08:34 Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong. So question for the party at large, if anybody could answer, what is the sacred book from the last episode that I asked for passages from? Something about the ma. Book of Ma, right? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:08:46 I don't know. Yeah, Book of Ma? We were off playing in the water. Did you all not get one too? I don't know. Splash, I always take it. It was the Divine Breath, wisdom from the Mauman tradition. Divine Breath.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Listen, I just ate Chipotle. I got some pre-Divine Breath over here. Hey. Wisdom from? The Mauman tradition. The Mauman tradition, The Mauman tradition. I knew that back and forth. Oh, I think we learned a lot about people's favorite books.
Starting point is 00:09:10 I thought Chip would say, like, one of those, do you remember those old, like, time life books, like the home repair books that Bob Villa would, like, sell on TV? He'd be like, he'd- I love Bob Villa. He would say, like, the Reader's Digest or something. I thought Chip might, like, might like the home repair manuals or something like that.
Starting point is 00:09:26 My favorite book is the TV Guide. After gathering your respective ingredients, you all make haste through the sultry shrubbery until you each come upon what is clearly the awning amphitheater. Shaded stadium seating carved from logs and circle an elephantine stump dressed in flowers. Standing atop the stump stage is the alchemist
Starting point is 00:09:45 with his back to you looking at the sun setting shores of the lock. We see no sign of the other sheath agents. Vibe check! Yeah, vibe check. Vibe check! Should we talk to him first? Vibe check! Make your vibe checks. I'll let sugars hitting everyone. What is it, perception? Insight. They don't let you tell the story. I know, I've got a long block of green here. That's fine, pipe check. Eleven. Twenty-three. Something seems off.
Starting point is 00:10:09 The little hairs on the back of your necks stand up and you hear a very slow clap. Oh no. And high up in the shaded western stands you see a dark figure rise from a seat in the very back. Oh how I love the theater. The drama. The suspense. the twists! And the figure steps forward into the light, you see the pale man with blonde curly hair wearing a top hat, black suit and red ascot.
Starting point is 00:10:33 But he isn't alone. Ah, but what is an outing without family, right father? To the north you see a young girl with piercing blue eyes emerge from shady leaves. She curtsies her silk, black, and blue dress, then yanks on a translucent chain, and an elvish woman in navy cloak falls to the ground, bound in see-through shackles and gagged with a red ascot. A third voice calls from the south. Personally, I come for the comedy. But I stay for the tragedy.
Starting point is 00:11:05 You turn to see a green-eyed, skinless figure take to the stage and quickly kick the alchemist to his knees. Eddie grips the man's neck with a clawed hand, his jagged smile never fading. Now everyone take a seat and let's enjoy the Grand Finale! I appear next to them and say something funny too. And I start clapping and I say, ha ha ha, you got, you, you're right where we wanted you to be. Right gang?
Starting point is 00:11:34 Wait, this, this was all in the theater. Does that mean this has all been a fun little prank on us the whole time? Like a whole show? Where are the cameras? The hidden cameras? Come on out Carol. I know you're alive. Oh my God. Guys, right here. come at us the whole time, like a whole show. Where are the hidden cameras? Come on out, Carol.
Starting point is 00:11:46 I know you're alive. Carol. Oh my god. You guys right? That was a good one, honey. Hugo's eyes glow red, and he glares fixedly at the alchemist. Ascuta la mine!
Starting point is 00:12:02 The alchemist's body goes rigid. His eyes glow red, and he responds tonelessly. Teasquill. Eddie holds up two bloodied arms ripped from their sockets. Those other sheath folks were surprisingly willing to give us a hand with the other ingredients we needed. So how's about you deliver the last two ingredients and everyone walks away with their limbs attached? Quick Chip, down the liquid. Glug, glug, glug, glug.
Starting point is 00:12:25 No. The last time you had an encounter with that liquid, Lockwood didn't go too well. So it's an entire, like, I get rid of the liquid, and there's just an entire lock. There's a whole lot. And he's like, dang it, I got it. Ugh.
Starting point is 00:12:37 Give me a second. This is going to take me three minutes to walk over there. Get it, three minutes to walk back. What a pain. Yeah. He just doesn't really doesn't want to. Well, so what are you going to do with the Lockwood? I put it in the bum bag of holding. Yeah. And then I tell the other guys, like, if you guys want to give me your stuff, I can hold on to it too. Actually, no, we should
Starting point is 00:12:53 probably keep it separate. I like how we're having this discussion as they're like, Hey, guys over there. Time out. Time out. If you guys want to give me your stuff, I can hold onto it for you. Give it to me. Give to me Oh, yeah, just give it to me With my life, so we should just give them I asked her leap. Ooh We give you the or yeah before you do that you want my water. Okay, here you go I gave I gave some of the wolfsbane already. Yeah. Yeah, why did you do that? Whatever you do don't give it to them. They are gaslighting. Just looking around so confused. Like, is that what happened? We're teammates in this
Starting point is 00:13:35 one. Okay. Yeah. So we give me all this stuff. Yeah. I take that or, and the Lockwood and Astral leap. Okay. I'm safe now too. So have fun with the boss fight. Yeah. I guess Eddie would probably just let out a big side, roll his eyes. Everyone go ahead and roll initiative. Oh, it's one of those days.
Starting point is 00:13:59 Okay. 16. There's like an army of people I could gather in Australia, right? Like there's like, it's like, I can make like a whole like an army of people I could gather in Australia, right? Maybe. It's like, I can make like a whole like Lord of the Rings, Return of the King entrance. Yeah. That's a 19 for Elga.
Starting point is 00:14:12 I'll roll two. But they lost against the Austrians as well. That's a 20 for Garnet. 22. Nice. Wasn't it Emus? Was it Emus? Yeah, I think it was Emus.
Starting point is 00:14:21 There are some NPCs as well. I'm gonna place them all. Give me a moment. Boom. yes agents of sheath to me Dead bodies. Yeah, you got a couple arms Also, I keep for failing to mention this I have this thing called pinch of poison Basically like I gained like this poison or ability Basically like I gained like this poison ability Like during short rests I can create a single use injury touch ingested or inhaled poison And it has like some stuff that I can enable like put on people
Starting point is 00:14:54 Yeah, is it okay to retroactively say that I that I've done that because I keep failing to mention it. Sure. Why not? What were you thinking? I'll just have a You got the touch I was going to touch the feel of cotton Injury injury that soundtrack rocks. Yeah with the Transformers. Yeah. Yeah, I just rewatched it I was like, why is this going so hard? Lion does a really good cover there seems like they also play that song like seven times in the movie as they should Okay, the top of the order is Hugo. Of course it is.
Starting point is 00:15:30 Okay, I'm gonna make a decision here. So I'm gonna roll and that will set my decision. Hugo makes a beeline for Barney and Elga. Don't ask me, fake papa. You're not my real dad. It's gonna be dad versus dad. Okay, he looks at you, Elga, and he says, you wouldn't hurt your father, would you?
Starting point is 00:15:57 I definitely wouldn't hurt my father, which is why I'm not gonna hurt Barney. Make a wisdom saving throw. Oh, it's like a curse, like a wisdom saving throw. Oh, it's like a curse like a spell Barbara's wincing the pain of that role. Yeah, you're you know what Hugo is right? You wouldn't do anything to hurt him In fact, you think you should protect him from all of these people who are trying to hurt him What if before he did that? I'm just kidding. Well, hold on.
Starting point is 00:16:27 Let me double check something in your character sheet to be safe. He says that, but you actually have advantage on that saving throw, Elgar. So make that wisdom save one more time. Do I know why? It's a type of charm. And you have Fey Ancestry, which gives you advantage
Starting point is 00:16:41 on checks against that. On being charmed, right? 13 is the new roll. You might still fail that. Yeah. Double checking. Yeah that's still a failure. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:51 You think there is a lot to that and you should you should maybe listen to what he has to say. I will protect my father. And in your in your mind you hear him say. Attack that person next to you. Is there only one person next to me? Yeah, it's Barney who's next to you. And he continues to close the distance. Does anyone else know this is happening to me? I mean, we probably hear him, or they probably hear him. Yeah, I detect that
Starting point is 00:17:14 you are creepier than usual. Right, they would hear the first part where he says that you wouldn't hurt your father, but then they don't hear, like, telepathically he tells you to attack Barney. Okay, but they might be able to tell I'm getting charmed in some way. They might be able to, yeah. So Hugo would close the distance and try to attack Barney. Okay. Let's see here, I'm gonna make a roll. This is plus nine.
Starting point is 00:17:38 You'd hit AC 24. That's gonna hit. Mm-hmm. Even with your new armor that you have on? hit. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Even with your new armor that you have on? Yeah. Okay, darn. That does 14 points of piercing damage.
Starting point is 00:17:52 And you must make a Charisma saving throw. Why are you so low on health? Because I got eaten by a tree or something. I don't remember. Like a lightning bolt or something like that. Oh yeah, you rushed that. I like that you didn't learn anything from it. It could potentially happen again.
Starting point is 00:18:07 25. Nice. That's him doing splits in the air. After he attacks you, he gets in real close and whispers in your ear, the little one's out to get you. But you kind of shake it off, you know, that he's just trying to mess with your mind.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Like Taylor Swift says. Okay. Check it out. The little ones out to get you. Yeah, then I'll say the two of you, the other two of you, oh, and I guess Matisse's gone. So Chip, you make me a Charisma saving throw. Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:39 He's so charismatic. Ooh la la. You've got Riz. 18. Oh, okay. In your mind, you feel like you can hear Hugo talking to you, telling you to move away and to run away, but you shake it off.
Starting point is 00:18:51 Okay. In my mind, I tell him to shut up. And you stand your ground. Yeah. That's it for Hugo. Then it's Eddie's turn. Tank, they rolled high. Eddie closes the distance and runs up to the alchemist.
Starting point is 00:19:04 And he plucks five petals from a blue flower on stage and the stuff grows taller by 50 feet just like shoots up into the air. Look at the flower growing over there. It's because they're doing their little thingy. What thingy? I don't know it's the thing that we were supposed to stop it from doing. Whatever the, uh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Cessnus. And he's going to... Oh, that's a fun one. You were supposed to stop him from doing the whatever the, yeah, sesness thing is. And he's going to, oh, that's a fun one. Oh, we need the anti-sesness. Yeah, they're doing the sesness. They're doing the sesness. The anti-sesness. That's the potion that we're trying to. Wait, why did he need the ingredients
Starting point is 00:19:38 if we were gonna make an anti-sesness potion? Maybe we'll find out. So that we can't make it maybe? Maybe. Chip, hello. Eddie looks at you and begins muttering something Maybe we'll find out. So that we can't make it maybe? Maybe. Chip. Hello. Eddie looks at you and begins muttering something under his breath. Why don't you make me a wisdom saving throw?
Starting point is 00:19:53 Okay. Eight. You know what? Something about the atmosphere, something about the day. You just feel like dancing. Feel like dancing. Dancing. Dancing.
Starting point is 00:20:01 Dancing. Dancing. Dancing. What? Yeah, you just begin doing a comic dance Just shuffling your feet, tapping them in place And capering Okay There you go, Chip, that's the spirit
Starting point is 00:20:12 Ah, guys, I'm feeling pretty good about this fight This is a weird time to choose to do the Macarena, Chip I'm not gonna do it, I'm not gonna do it So, meta game-wise, you use all your movement to dance without actually leaving your space. And you have disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws and attack rolls. Good start. We are real set up for success here. What if I have advantage inherently on Dex saving throws because of my shoes?
Starting point is 00:20:40 Well, you made a wisdom save. So it doesn't cancel out. It has no effect. But your dancing is that much better. because of my shoes. Well, you made a wisdom save. So it doesn't cancel out. It has no effect. But your dancing is that much better. Yeah. You're really doing a great job. Chip's danced a lot in this campaign.
Starting point is 00:20:53 Da da da da da da da da da da da da da. Do the Chip. What is that, 23Skidoo? Matide. You know what? Australia's real nice this time of year. Yeah. You're right, you're over there.
Starting point is 00:21:02 I made the smart choice. You know, you don't have to go back. I don't, for a minute. That's 10 rounds. I was gonna say, that's like, might be the whole time. You've got, you've got a, you got a lot of time, that's the sole combat to figure this out. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:19 And you roll at the end of your turn, right? To see if you maintain in there or not? I can leave, I can go back if I want. Can you leave? At the start not I can leave but I can go back if I want can you read stuff at the start of my next turn I go I can go back if I want or when the spell ends the banishment I don't know if that would work well no but can you leave items in that realm yeah I can do you have like a little like a locker or anything like that over there little chest or a you know nest yeah I, I could just leave it on the ground. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:47 Are they able to do that? Yeah, I mean, why not? Okay, I'll leave the ore and the lockwood on the ground. Okay. Which would stay in the Australian version of this. Like it's in that's like, basically almost like a mirror dimension is what it seems like.
Starting point is 00:22:00 The upside down. Yeah, but the one difference is it's not quite one to one. Like distance doesn't work the same between the planes. Okay. So it seems like. The upside down. Yeah, but the one difference is it's not quite one to one. Like distance doesn't work the same between the planes. Okay. So it seems like it's a short distance and one might end up being a long distance and another. Okay. But the way that the spell reads as far as how I come back
Starting point is 00:22:14 is I come back 10 feet from where I could see from where I left. Yes. Okay. I'm gonna do something before I come back, if I can really quick, just talk. I just want just a talking action. Okay. I talk to G something before I come back, if I can really quick. Just talk. I just want just a talking action. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:26 I talked to Gigi, and I tell Gigi, I need you to go find Siren. And I tell him the message, everything went wrong, we're in deep doo-doo, get your Gollum butt to the amphitheater pronto. Make me a wisdom check. That's a good plan. That's smart.
Starting point is 00:22:43 I might not be now that he's making me do this. Call him's bad guy, but wisdom or 19. Oh, nice. You remember that Siren went out to help find ingredients as well. Wah-wah. But he's not here in the amphitheater? Now that you think about it, you look around,
Starting point is 00:22:58 you see some pieces, some metallic pieces in trees. Oh, you didn't describe that. He said we had two arms, but not a metal arm arm well that he wasn't carrying a metallic arm Maybe we can rebuild him stronger faster better than he was before Could I tell Gigi to go find Jacques? Sure why not? Okay, then he's there. He's on the Australian plane All right, same message. You scratch out What you do is I just take Gigi and I shake him a little bit I go go find Jacques and tell him we need your help. Please come to the amphitheater in the cessness
Starting point is 00:23:37 No Final lock there it is in final lock. We could really use your help right now bring reinforcements Bring macarons. Goodbye and I send Gigi off a little Aaron. Yeah, just make a persuasion check. Why not on Gigi? Oh, no on jock correct. You did this last episode and I made the same 17 plus 320. Okay, that's good's good. Dirty 20. Nice. Nice. Excellent. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:08 Gigi jumps out of your arms and begins walking away. Okay. Hugo is now close to Chip or Barney. Barney. Yeah, correct. Okay. I could see him then. Cause I can see within 60 feet. Correct.
Starting point is 00:24:23 So I want to, could I appear behind Hugo? Sure. Great. I'm going to hit him with, no, actually, I want to appear, would I be able to appear like 10 feet from him? Yeah, why not? Okay, you're so great.
Starting point is 00:24:41 Such a good deal. The gracious god. Because I want to hit him with the sling of the sandstorms. Da da da da. Wow. Chris just came in on the last note. So I'm going to attack with that. 27.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Believe it or not, that's a hit. So then first I'm going to roll for damage on that and then a few things get to happen. That's a one. So that's eight. Eight. What kind of damage is that? Bludgeoning.
Starting point is 00:25:03 And then since that hit him him the bullets of walloping So they're called called something like that Yeah They are the bullets of waffling creature hit by the bullet must see on DC 10 strength saving throw or be knocked prone Pretty sure he's gonna make plus 10 doesn't he? Well, I mean well, what's his modifier just first strength. Oh, it's only plus three. OK. Nice. Nice. So he just needs to roll a six or lower.
Starting point is 00:25:27 It's an eight. That's an 11. OK. That's fine, because since it was a monk weapon, I can spend a key point and do a stunning strike. Nice. Stolen in. And the check on that.
Starting point is 00:25:39 It's very good. As I flip through a million screens on here. I just love the way British people say stunning. It's my favorite. It has stolen in. I can relate to flipping through a million screens on here. I just love the way British people say stunning. It's my favorite. That's stunning. I can relate to flipping through a million screens. Constitution saving throw. Oh, it's my key thingy, which I didn't write down.
Starting point is 00:25:52 I think that's like 16 or 17. Let me just roll to see. Well, I got a six, which is probably cool, below whatever your number is. Success. He is stunned. Stunning. Stunning. Good lord.
Starting point is 00:26:03 I love it. Everyone in the US is stunned. Stunned in! Good lord. I love that. Stunned in! How far is Aveina from me? Aveina is a good distance away. She was at another portion of the amphitheater. Give me a moment. I can look at the map and tell you exactly how far.
Starting point is 00:26:18 Aveina is cheering me on to beat up her sister. Love you, Kristen. You must die. About 80 feet, 80 to 90 feet, something like that. Yeah, that's fine. I'll go the full 65 flying feet that I can go and I'm going to, yeah, I'm going to use my second attack to hit her with sling of sandstorms it's just the inventory item that keeps on giving 19 plus 11 is 30 what kind of armor is this little girl wearing? Unless she's in the submarine I think he got her. He forgot to say that she
Starting point is 00:27:02 gathered all of Siren's parts around her. 2 plus 7, 9 bludgeoning damage. And roll that DC 10 Constitution saving throw. No, it's a strength. Her strength is plus 2, so she needs an 8 or better. Throw her into the water. That's an 18, which is a dirty 20. And then roll the stunning strike. That was Constitution. Yeah. Also a dirty 20. Okay. And then roll the stunning strike.
Starting point is 00:27:25 That was constitution? Yeah. Also a plus two, plus a nine, that's an 11. That's gonna be too low. Yeah, which is low, that's a failure. So she's stunned as well. Okay. And then I'm gonna use one more key point,
Starting point is 00:27:38 since I'm on a roll, to abuse the thing that makes me dodgy. It is called dodgy. It is called dodgyness. Who would have expected that? To know what it's called, patient defense. So I have now used the dodge action as my bonus action. Okay, and that just gives you- Dodge. Yeah, dodge. The disadvantage on attacks against me.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Yep. Like a rock. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God. AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SHHHHH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH SH If you- if Avena pulls out a proton pack. AVENA PULLS OUT A PROTON PACK AVENA PULLS OUT A PROTON PACK AVENA PULLS OUT A PROTON PACK That would suck.
Starting point is 00:28:30 In unison they go do-re-e-gon. That's Matide. After Matide is Barney. Then after Barney is Elga. That's right. Alright. Avena's got a gun? What? Yeah. That's the other feeling. Venus got a gun! I'm gonna start by touching Elga and casting Greater Restoration. I imbue a creature with positive energy to undo a debilitating effect.
Starting point is 00:28:58 One effect includes Charmed. Would that work? And were you close enough to me that you could touch me with that? Yeah, because we were right next to each other. Shall I make sure you didn't provoke an attack of opportunity? that work? And were you close enough to me that you could touch me with that? Yeah, we were right next to each other. Shall I make sure you didn't provoke an attack of opportunity? Yeah, I'm gonna say yes. One effect that charmed. It wasn't charmed, but it was an effect that charmed. And the other way it reads is one effect that charmed. It doesn't say charmed specifically, so yes.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Oh, so it wasn't charmed? No, it was an effect that charmed, but it wasn't charmed. Oh, well I'm glad I picked that one instead of my other thing I was gonna do. So yes, Elga, who you saw as a mortal enemy of yours just a second ago, you now see as a kind, long-winded old man. What? And then... So my I'm not charmed anymore?
Starting point is 00:29:41 Yeah, you're charmed. And then Hugo is right in front of me. Yes Okay, last name still Monbrah. Yes as my bonus action I want to cast spiritual weapons and I create a floating spectral weapon within range on a hit The target takes force damage equal to 1d8 plus my spell casting modifier Okay, so I'm gonna cast that and make it attack him Okay, so I'm gonna cast that and make it attack him Behind are you what cut what form is the weapon taking? It's taking
Starting point is 00:30:12 What is your dad not like? apparently me Can I make it take the form of like an Elga and me like statue that he just womps. Could it just be Barney and Elga playing catch in a field? Yeah! Sure, why not? And then it womps him with it. Yeah, it's like bludgeoning.
Starting point is 00:30:38 Yeah. No! That's a 26. Oh, that hits. A vision of Elga at her wedding with father daughter dance with Barney. So that did 6 damage. And then, wait, did you say he was stunned? He's stunned so you have advantage on attacks.
Starting point is 00:30:55 Can I just roll again just to see if I get like a crit? Sure, why not. And that was a 25. Okay, still not a critical but still a hit regardless. And he's stunned so we could walk away. Where's Eddie in relation to us? Eddie is on that stump which grew up 50 feet into the air. After picking a flower. Right, where the alchemist is. How far away is that stump? From where you were the the base of the stump is probably only like 25 feet away. He's the one
Starting point is 00:31:22 who's like got all the stuff and is like doing the thing, Eddie, right? He's got all the stuff and doing the thing. The guy with the stuff doing the thing, yeah. I mean, I don't know. Why don't you, I can fly. Okay, yeah. And I've also got dodge. You can fly, you can fly.
Starting point is 00:31:36 All right, then I'll stay here and just stomp around because he's not stunned. And that's it, that's my turn. All right, Elga, you're up after Elga is Evanna, then Chip. And I'm no longer Charmed, you want to attack Barney, correct? Correct. I'm gonna cast Hunter's Mark on Hugo. Yeah!
Starting point is 00:31:52 You are not my enemy. Hehehehehehe. Hehehehehehe. And I'm gonna take a swipe at him. Do it. Actually, could I equip something or is that like a bonus action? Sure, why not, go for it.
Starting point is 00:32:09 I'm gonna equip my Medal of the Horizon back, something I got a while ago. Basically, when you would be hit by an attack, you could use your reaction to increase your AC by five until the start of my next turn. So I'm just like equipping this to increase my AC by five. So you have it on, it's a reaction. You just have to let me know when you get hit. Yes. Just tell me if you want to use the ability and then for that one hit it would increase your
Starting point is 00:32:33 AC by five. Right, which means it could potentially not hit me. Correct. Okay cool. So you have it on, you just have to let me know when you want to use that reaction. Okay, cool. And then I'm going to take a shwipe at Hugo with my great acts of gaining. Okay. Oh my god, I'm gonna use my inspiration die. You have advantage also. You do have advantage. He's stunned. Hold that, this is Eric.
Starting point is 00:32:56 Stunned. Stunned? So I'm gonna hold on to my inspiration die then. Oh my god, no, I'm gonna use my inspiration die. I rolled a one and then a two. Yikes. It's getting better. Give us three, come on. Come on, three.
Starting point is 00:33:08 Oh, thank gosh, 30. Woo. I'm guessing that hits. 30, yeah. I have a plus 11 on that. That hits. She went three, she went three. All right, and then because he has Hunter's Mark on him,
Starting point is 00:33:18 that is a 17 points of damage, plus an extra 1d6 when I hit, right? Yes. Okay. And I also have advantage on any wisdom perception or wisdom survival check I make. To find it. To find it. Yeah. Okay. So that's an extra 1d6, which is another four points.
Starting point is 00:33:39 So that would be 21.21. Ouch. Backjack. And then I'm going to do it again. Yeah. Hugo, I call you by your first name. That's a 20, I don't know what that'll do. That does hit.
Starting point is 00:33:52 Okay, cool. I whispered, Elga, you know. You know, Hugo. And that does 18 plus a D6, another three, so another 21 points of damage. And that does 18 plus a D6, another three, so another 21 points of damage. Oh, thank you. So that's 42 total on Hugo. Yep.
Starting point is 00:34:11 And then could I yell out to my team members? Yeah, do it. If anybody has a spell that's like Silence or anything, wanna cast it on this fake dad over here so he cannot do a little Hubba Doo, Hubba Doo, Hocus Pocus on us anymore. The haba-doo, haba-doo, ah, yeah. No, none of that Huey-Baluy.
Starting point is 00:34:30 Yeah, I was like, what did Blaine say? Haba-doo, haba-doo. And that's my turn. Good turn. That was a really good turn. Okay, so then it's Evaina's turn. She's stunned. She is stunned.
Starting point is 00:34:41 What does that mean exactly? She can't move? Yeah, I think she also can't talk clearly. So any verbal components? Habadoo habadoo. Stun creature is incapacitated, can't move, can speak only falteringly, automatically fails strength and dexterity saving throws, attack rolls against it have advantage,
Starting point is 00:34:58 and can't take actions or reactions. Cool! Cool! That's why I do it. It's maybe my best superpower let me look at her character sheet here of a now so what can she do doesn't involve talking or moving she does have stuff she could do farting doesn't count so are you still close to a Vana I am if you said she was 80 I'm about 15 feet away okay you see her you, she can't really move. She is stunned, but her eyes like turn and look at you
Starting point is 00:35:30 and she kind of smiles. You see like what you think might be a little bit of a smile curl on the outer edges of her lips. I smile back and I mouth a potty word. Ooh, what is it? But we can't say it, can we? We can't say it. Toilet paper.
Starting point is 00:35:41 Yeah. And as she's locked eyes and looking at you, three other versions of her pop out surrounding her. Now there are four of Venus standing there. But which one is the one that's laying on the ground stunned? The other ones are running around, and the one in the middle's eyes are turning around. Yeah, we really need to tell which one's the real one.
Starting point is 00:36:01 They're all frozen in place at the moment. OK. That's all she can do at the moment Let me write that down You'll never guess Chip you are up. She just spawns two T posing What can I do you can dance what kind of dance you want to do I was gonna say you can dance if you want to you can leave your friends behind
Starting point is 00:36:24 Oh, maybe you should do that cuz your friends don't dance Can I can I do a role to see if I can overcome that charm or whatever our music? No Yeah as an action you can make a wisdom saving throw to regain control of yourself, okay, I'll do that Well, I mean cuz alternatively it's like I just that. Is there a way that you could fight dance? Capri-O-Era? Capri-O-Era? What did you say? Did you say Capri-O-Era?
Starting point is 00:36:49 Capri-O-Era. He said Capri-O-Era. Capri-O-Era. Okay, so I have disadvantage on attack rolls against anybody or specifically Eddie. Anybody. Gee. And you also can't move because all your movement is taken up by dancing. You know what?
Starting point is 00:37:02 This is fine. This is fine. He's, he's, he's, yeah, no, I'm going to dance. I'm going dance I'm gonna dance I'm going to First I'm gonna while I'm doing my little dance I'm gonna dance is it it's a river dance and Pitch a poison thing that I have a little bit on an arrow from my crossbow of coolness and then Are you gonna hit me with an arrow? Yeah, then I slide you look slide to the right and shoot from my crossbow coolness. And then I'm gonna- Are you gonna hit me with an arrow?
Starting point is 00:37:24 Yeah, and then I slide to the left, slide to the right. And then I shoot. Doesn't sound like Riverden. Crossbow! Crossbow! So I'm gonna shoot Eddie with it. And you said that was a disadvantage, right? Yes, I'm trying to think if you would be able to see him
Starting point is 00:37:37 to even hit him, because he's 50 feet up in the air on top of the stump. Oh, you tell me. You were, where are you? Oh, you were over here, the stump went up. How were over here. The stump went up. How far is that? The stump went up the marina. How is it that the hypotenuse comes into play so often here? It really does. 50, 20, stay in school kids. Is it A square plus B square? Eddie's at an angle about 54 feet away from you diagonally, but you're having to look up. You're that far away. Sure. We'll say he's by the edge and you're able to take a shot.
Starting point is 00:38:06 Why not? OK. And that's this 54 feet is within range for across. All right. Well, it says 30 foot slash 120. So is that 120? Right. So normally normal range for that is 30 feet. Then you can fire up to 120. But then that is at disadvantage and you're already at disadvantage So be double disadvantage. Okay, that's great. I love this
Starting point is 00:38:29 Perfect. All right, so I'm gonna shoot I'm gonna roll three times, right? Sure He's just a disadvantage it's fine I can be double disadvantage you want to I think should be four dice But I do in a roll three dice double triple just double disadvantage three dice I do in a roll three dice double triple just double disadvantage three dice Yeah, let's do three. Yeah, okay. You want to go nuts? Let's go nuts. It's a 25 and that's a 25 I also have lucky which then turns this into super duper advantage I'm gonna read this for the room because every time I brought out lucky people like doesn't make any sense Hold your horsies You have three luck points per long rest.
Starting point is 00:39:05 Whenever you make an attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, or when an attack roll is made against you, you can spend one to roll an additional d20, and you choose which die to use. Yeah, super duper advantage. You can choose to spend luck points after you roll a die, but the outcome is determined. So then I'm gonna roll another.
Starting point is 00:39:22 I just accident out, sorry. My hands are shaking. I'm thrilled. Where's your rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin' rollin'? So that's a 16. So my highest was a 25. So you're gonna pick the 25. Yes. Okay. Believe it or not, that hits. Okay, great. I am also going to use my ranged rhyme.
Starting point is 00:39:40 Ahhhhhhhhhh Upon firing a cross bolt cold damage uh-huh that's right that's right Gus so I'm gonna roll for the piercing damage you're piercing damage first so that's seven DC 15 dexterity saving throw okay or take 46 cool damage so plus five let me roll here hey he's at disadvantage though cuz he's stunned stoned he's not stunned no bad he's not you attack the one person I didn't stun. So he rolled a 16, which means he saves. No he doesn't! Roll it again! Oh you're gonna burn your luckiest quickly.
Starting point is 00:40:30 Oh god, every time! Every time, he has three! That's an 11, which is plus 5, 16. No, but you get to pick! So it's a 16 or a 21. Oh, oh, oh. Don't burn it, you big, big, dumb, beautiful, lovely, but dumb man. Hey, Blaine, do whatever you want.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Don't do it. You play you. It's your turn. Do it, do it, do it. He's too chicken, he'd never do it. Do it. Run again! Yes!
Starting point is 00:40:55 I like how Gum Gum showed up same person in that one. Do it, do it. I can't wait for him to succeed this. Do it, do it. So hold on, now we're getting a clarification. I'm lucky here. Life is sick with him. We've done lucky multiple times before.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Yeah, I feel like we always do it wrong. We should keep doing it wrong then. Okay, so whenever you make an attack roll, an ability check or a saving throw, you can spend one to roll an additional d20 and you choose which die to use. You can choose to spend luck points after you roll. So it's when you make an attack roll.
Starting point is 00:41:25 Or when an attack roll is made against you. Or when an attack is made against you. Well, Jetty's not doing any of that. Correct. Yeah, and they didn't attack you. Correct. This is him doing a save. Correct.
Starting point is 00:41:34 So you didn't have to use that lucky. So you still have that lucky. I have both my luckies on. Yes. But I wanted it to explode. Micah stepped in to save you there. But does it do half damage? I don't know. It doesn't clear. It doesn't say. Okay. It's this is homebrewed
Starting point is 00:41:49 So it doesn't say if it does or does not do half damage. Well, then I think I think it does half damage though Normally it is half. That's all it was with her knife. So half of 17 It's eight as well as the ice knife spell does that as well. Plus, if you recall, I lubricated my arrow with a pinch of poison. So I'm gonna do an additional 2d6 plus 4 damage. Poisoning damage. Yeah? Yeah. Why are you clicking it?
Starting point is 00:42:16 I'm just making sure that I can do it. Yeah. So that's 12 points of damage. From the poison. From the poison. It's too bad you didn't hide and do this. do this like couldn't he was dancing. Yeah, Blaine Pretty good. I need to roll a dexterity saving throw for the alchemist Cuz he's right next to Eddie remember
Starting point is 00:42:37 That's okay, it's just the alchemist Alchemist rolled an 18 honestly the alchemist got killed when they need the alchemist... Pfft. Uh, uh, would he? Then it's bad for all of us, equally. I mean, I mean, Chris... So that's an 8 for minus 8 hit points for the alchemist, because he made the save.
Starting point is 00:42:55 He'll be fine, he'll be fine. I'm gonna Chris you a little bit here. Would, like, because I used Lucky, does that technically mean I have advantage so that I could proc sneak attack? I mean, I'm just saying. No, no, no no that is not advantage But the alchemist is within range of him, so then wouldn't I proc the sneak attack, but he's not threatening
Starting point is 00:43:16 Okay Fine and then now that I realized it I thought that this is gonna go so much better you did fine No, I didn't the cross you did good considering your dancing. Yeah Disadvantage and because I quadruple disadvantage I used a bonus action so I can't disengage or do that stuff So that's basically dancing. That's basically it Dave do a little dance right now That's my turn. OK, it's Sedate's turn. What's she going to do?
Starting point is 00:43:48 Continue to be prisoner. Oh, I know what she'll do. She'll yell at Chip. Be careful. We need the Alchemist alive. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
Starting point is 00:43:59 Which is typical, sneaky dragon where an NPC has to tell Blaine to care about another NPC. I guess she'll make a check. Let's just roll a d20 for fun for her. With her translucent shackles. She rolled a seven. Oh yeah, can't she with those on? Yeah, she's trying to get out,
Starting point is 00:44:16 but she's not having much luck. Does she have a cool ability? Does it require her to move like her stupid little daughter? Yeah, unfortunately not. You've got the bad side of the family. The other side of the family. You don't have to tell me about that, I think I'm a little weird.
Starting point is 00:44:31 Yeah, she can't do anything. Okay, that is it for Sedante. It's the alchemist who is. He's like in a trance still, right? Yeah, he is being controlled. Maybe I will come up though with the cult. Yeah. Sedanite? Sep break it? Yeah, that's what was my intent. I come up though with the cold. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:45 Does that break it? Yeah, that's what was my intent. I was gonna ask if he's like being charmed or something like that and we hurt Hugo, does that break any sort of cold? Oh yeah, his concentration. Plus the cold, you know. You could make an arcana check if you want.
Starting point is 00:44:58 Me? Yeah. Okay. Could we get on? I'm gonna let Barbara, cause yeah, she's putting it together. It's the 14? You don't think that would necessarily Have a direct um, it might you're saying there's a chance. It might not be a
Starting point is 00:45:13 Concentration spell it might just be like he said something and it makes him do something. You winter soldiered him Yeah, what I'm hearing is we should in fact kill the alchemist, but you need him Hearing is we should in fact kill the alchemist, but you need I think there's a lot of people we should prioritize killing first or at least hurting first like Eddie And every other villain in this room. No, we can rehabilitate them. I hit your sister. Okay, thank you. I Did it hit? apologize for hitting your sister Not my sister. I mean that daddy won't get mad at me for hitting sister I think at that point
Starting point is 00:45:48 Sadate shouts out to you Chip I always heard Carol loved your dancing It's always for Carol Why is she trying to make it You can re-roll that wisdom save Oh okay Well I'm certainly going to make it now By the strength of Carol I roll
Starting point is 00:46:04 By the strength of Carol I rule you saying that's probably gonna 14 that might do it it might not let's see it's close yeah you're able to like shake it off and get your wits about you and get your feet back under you. Yay. Final move. What's your final dance move? How do you end the dance? Like one of those, hi-hies, with my arms out. Do you do any jazz hands?
Starting point is 00:46:31 Little jazz hands. Yeah, little jazz hands. And then my tail's also jazz handing. All right, it's the alchemist's turn who continues his work. And then we go back to the top to Hugo. Oh, great. He's stunned.
Starting point is 00:46:44 When does that end? Does that end on your turn? My turn. Okay. It's Hugo, then Eddie, then Matilda. Hugo can't move. However, at that point, violent tremors begin shaking the entire amphitheater
Starting point is 00:46:57 and large branches crack off from the canopy above, falling into the amphitheater. There's been a theme with a lot of like earthquake-y stuff. Yeah. There's like the vamp spire and here again. Yeah, something's going on. Everyone make dexterity saving throws. Nat 20 with plus a bunch.
Starting point is 00:47:15 You made it. You're good. 19 for Elga. A seven. You sounded so proud. I know. I was like, how can I sell this? I rolled.
Starting point is 00:47:24 It's the lucky seven. I rolled an 11, but I know I was like how can I sell this? I roll lucky seven I rolled an 11, but I believe I get to do it again Sneakers on this little dice when you're rolling that 20. It's a picture of the grim reaper. There's a thing that I have While you're doing that I'm gonna roll my saves as well Yeah, that's a sound I want to hear that's a good sound. No, it's not. Yeah, it is. How did I fail every single one? Yeah! How did I roll 5 G20s and fail every single roll? That one might not be hold on. Because I wished. Because we prayed to the maw. Power of dance! Now that's a failure. Evasion, when you're subjected to an effect that allows you to make a deck saving throw to take only half damage
Starting point is 00:48:04 You instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw and only half if you fail. So he effect that allows you to make a deck saving throw to take only half damage you instead take no damage if You succeed on the saving throw and only half if you fail. So he failed so you failed so you still take half damage Yeah, yeah, and I take I have that too. So if there's half damage for succeeding, I don't take any. Yep There is I rolled an 8 11 2 4 and 15 heck Yeah garbage. Let me see if I can I'm trying trying. Nope, can't cry for you, sorry. No. All right, let me roll some damage. The damage is?
Starting point is 00:48:30 Lots. 11 points of bludgeoning damage. If you succeed, you take five. Okay. So we all take five? I take none. Sorry. I saw that too.
Starting point is 00:48:40 I saw that too. Tony just walked by in like a top hat. If no one else had seen that, I think I was going crazy. Okay, are we all good on that? Yeah. It is still Hugo's turn. Who is stunned? Can he do anything without moving? He can only speak falteringly, which makes this even more difficult.
Starting point is 00:49:00 If he could speak. Oh. Hugo. I don't sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me.
Starting point is 00:49:16 I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. I'm not sure if you can hear me. We just have to make fun of Chris? Yeah, we just gotta bully Chris and get his race guys. Chris went, can I get one? I'm the part of the joke right now. Yeah, technically part of the joke. Nah, he can't do anything.
Starting point is 00:49:34 Alright, Hugo stands there. Eddie, you cannot... Well, I guess Chip can partially see him. Eddie, he is going to... So many options. Is it Eddie's turn? Yeah. Okay. Oh, this is a fun one. I wonder who he's gonna target. Maybe the person who attacked him and did damage to him. Yeah, that seems smart. Yeah, Eddie looks down at you Chip and a beam of crackling blue energy lances out from him towards you. This forms a sustained arc of lightning between the two of you. He has to make a
Starting point is 00:50:08 Attack while you're doing that I have the cloak of displacement while you wear this cloak it projects an illusion that makes you appear to be standing in a Place near your actual location causing any creature to have disadvantage on attack rolls against you disadvantage lucky for you What is your AC? 13 really yeah has it always been 13 yes I'm not great yeah what can I say do I have like I wonder if I've armor like unequipped or something that doesn't seem right because that just seems like your dexterity bonus if you want to give me higher AC I'll take it yeah you've got
Starting point is 00:50:40 your leather armor which is 11 your dexterity bonus, which is 2 that's 13. Wow, that's it. Okay. Yeah, cuz that hits then Okay, yeah, it hits Do a lucky he do it again. Oh, you can use a lucky on this, right? Yes, you're attacking me My voice didn't crack your voice cracked a one Which one you want to pick? He critical fails. Or does. Alright so the uh.
Starting point is 00:51:08 You gotta punish him. The lightning comes out but it fails to hit you. It hits that displaced version of you that was near you instead of actually hitting you. And lightning flashes between the two spots. Eddie! Eddie! Hey Eddie! You missed! You're okay. His green eyes focus and just look at you with pure hate. Hey, Eddie, you missed. His green eyes focus and just look at you with pure hate.
Starting point is 00:51:32 I look like a rogue is doing the exact opposite of what the rogue should be doing. And then I start dancing. Enjoying the show?

The year's gone pretty quickly, we're already what, like halfway through, so I think it's a good time to maybe think about something you're proud of in 2024 so far, and you know, what's in front of you still?
Starting point is 00:56:55 What's something you still want to accomplish? I think at the start of the year we set lots of goals that we want to do, maybe take a look, see what have you accomplished, and maybe there's time to get some of the other ones done. When life goes so fast, it's important to take a moment and actually, you know, celebrate your wins. Don't dwell on the negative there. Maybe make adjustments for the rest of the year.
Starting point is 00:57:11 Therapy can help you take stock of your progress and set achievable goals for the next six months. And if you're thinking of starting therapy, maybe give BetterHelp a try.

Starting point is 00:57:29 time for no additional charge. I think that it's good to have an outside perspective to talk about the things that, like we're talking about here, reinforce some of the positives in life maybe, that you don't give yourself enough credit for. It's good to bounce that off of someone else, like a third party, and hear what their feedback is, things that you've succeeded in, and help you set those goals for the remainder of the year.

Yeah, it's easy to forget chip is a rogue as he screams and dances in the middle of a battle. I also wear my headphones one year off one year on. I think you were louder in the one that I don't have the headphones on because I could actually hear you like full volume here versus the microphone,
Starting point is 00:58:26 which I think is like leveled out properly. Yeah. So I was like, oh, it's quieter if I put this on. Listeners at home love to hear it. All right, Mateed, then Barney, then Elga. So Eddie is on a stump that has grown in height. Correct, it's now 50 feet tall. And that happened when he pulled these petals off of a flower. Correct, it's now 50 feet tall. And that happened when he pulled these petals
Starting point is 00:58:46 off of a flower. Correct, it was a blue flower. It's not the wolf's pain though, is it? No. I feel like we should be doing something to attempt to stop what he's doing. What if? Is there a ceiling in this place?
Starting point is 00:59:00 No, it's open air. Aw, dang it, I was gonna say keep pulling flowers until he squishes into the ceiling. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I like the energy. I like the spit balling, brainstorm air. Aw, dang it. I was going to say keep pulling flowers until he squishes into the ceiling. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I like the energy. No, I like the spitballing, brainstorming. Oh, oh. The alchemists is there too.
Starting point is 00:59:09 I have a question. We're in the amphitheater. Yes. Are we close to the lock? I mean, relatively, yes, but not like you could go there in one round and back or anything like that. You know, it's a couple hundred feet away. OK.
Starting point is 00:59:24 So no, never mind. It took a couple minutes of walking from the lock with the lock You know, it's a couple hundred feet away. Okay, so no, nevermind. It took a couple minutes of walking from the lock with the lock, we have to get back here. Okay, okay, okay, okay. Pause to listen. Is that the sound of Jacques coming to my aid? Oh. Nope, it's not.
Starting point is 00:59:35 No, okay, okay. Gus is saying that. Gotta go. Just listening. Meow. You can hear bells off in the distance. But is he back? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:42 How far am I from a bee if I am 15 feet from Avena? So you're still relatively close to the ground. You know, Avena was in the stands, which are stadium seating, so it is a little elevated. It's probably, let's say, 20 feet up. So it's another 30 feet up. And then that's, oh, you weren't all the way to Avena. It's 30 feet up and then about 15 feet south from you
Starting point is 01:00:04 to get to where Eddie is. 30 up up and then about 15 feet south from you to get to where Eddie is 30 up 15 15 south yeah I could make that in one movement because I'm absolutely okay yeah yeah could I I want to first hit a vein again. Yeah! Slyther! The Sling of the Sandstorms. Da da da. 24? Roll a D4 on a one you hit the correct one. Oh, really? Yeah, there's four of them.
Starting point is 01:00:34 Yeah, remember she's got the little... But wasn't one of them stunned? They all look stunned. No, I think they're all staying in place. She's stunned until the end of my turn. Right, yeah, so she's still stunned. Right, so I have advantage on the attack. And so if you're telling me I have...
Starting point is 01:00:49 So it's whether or not to make the attack, and then the D4 determines whether or not you attacked the correct one. Unless you had an area attack. Could I do a check to see if I can know which one's the right one then? I thought this was a thing like a Blaine's thing where it just gives him advantage.
Starting point is 01:01:04 No, it's, yeah, it's a little hard because like you, essentially you pick one to attack and then make the attack. So it's different than his evasion or his displacement. Correct. Like with his, it just hides him and makes him appear to be a little over from where he is. This one makes multiple copies. So it's like there are essentially four Avenas
Starting point is 01:01:23 standing in front of you. What did I roll, Blaine? A one. I rolled a one. Ah ha ha ha ha ha. You hit the correct one. So it's like there are essentially four of a nice standing in front of you Okay, cool then I will roll for damage which is the D or the process of that like where you just like That's two plus seven nine bludgeoning damage. Roll me that save because strength. Strength save is a walloping bullets. 10. It's a DC 10. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:51 Strength is plus two, need an eight or better. 11, that's a 13. Okay. I'm gonna make this a stunning strike again. Take those stunting strikes. It's quieter every time. It's, I found it, it's a DC 16. Con.
Starting point is 01:02:04 Con is plus two, I need a 14 or better. Oh 13. Yeah. Close. Stunned again. Wap wap wap. The other three apparitions of a missile. Yes.
Starting point is 01:02:20 Yeah. But we know which one is the real one. Yeah. He does. I mean we can't tell who stunned or not, right? They're all I hit her and so she has an extra bruise on her head with a black eye to black eyes Okay, then I point that one out hit that one do I have anything I could do like to throw like paint on her From a meta perspective the duplicates always look like the original and throw like paint on her or something. Do I have anything?
Starting point is 01:02:45 From a meta perspective, the duplicates always look like the original. So no matter what happens to the original, the duplicates will always look like the original. They have to move. We know where they're standing. Sure, if she doesn't. Yeah, because she can't move.
Starting point is 01:02:59 So they all have to stay there. So I point out the one that will be the one that is her till the end of my next turn. So Question. Makes perfect sense to me. You attacked and did the stunning stunning strike with the sling of the sandstorm? Yes That'd be quick. So the one problem is Sling of the sandstorm is a ranged weapon, but stunning strike requires you to hit with a melee weapon I thought it because we've been doing this that it doesn't it say a monk weapon is
Starting point is 01:03:29 Stunning strike thanks. Thanks when you hit with a melee weapon attack. Yeah I'm going off what we've been doing for a while, which was that the sling of sandstorms could procs stunning strike Yeah, we've been doing that. I don't know. I don't know if we've been doing it right or wrong could proc stunning strike. Yeah, we've been doing that. I don't know if we've been doing it right or wrong. Maybe we'll let it slide, but I don't think that works. How about since from this point on, I won't do that. Run Hensworn.
Starting point is 01:03:52 I think you have to hit them with some kind of melee weapon or fist or whatever. A talon. My, would my spear count? Yes. As long as you don't throw it, as long as you use it as a melee in that range. I'll make that note.
Starting point is 01:04:03 We'll try. Remember this is the signing of the Treaty of Cessnus. Yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah Okay, but she can be stunned for this one last time. Thank you. I'm gonna go get Eddie then Kill him. Yeah again Six times I'm just gonna take my sling instance. I'm just smack him over the head with it. Just kidding Six times. I'm just gonna take my sling instance from just smack him over the head with it. Just kidding I'm gonna hit him with my spirit superior Baker actually. Oh wait. Yeah, he's leaning in real close to that
Starting point is 01:04:38 You know what this is not really gonna do much But I this has like final boss battles near final boss battle vibes And so I want to use it to use a little item bonus action depends on the item but yeah I'd say typically what if I wanted to crack an egg sure okay I'm so confused Martina's not the time no this is great before I leave Avena because I have a vendetta against this mean little girl you like your vibe I did until she just became a little punk. I throw the battle goozling. I crack an orange gooey egg and a battle hearty goozling will ooze out.
Starting point is 01:05:16 I command the goozling to attack an enemy within range. I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sam, I am. Pretty great, the mechanics of how this thing works. It's just a nuisance. It really doesn't do much damage, but it's great because if it fails on the attack, it rolls a die per number of creatures
Starting point is 01:05:31 in the area of effect, and it will attack a new creature, ad nauseum. And it also has the thing where it says throughout the duration, the goose thing will honk deafeningly. Yeah. How does that sound? Ha!
Starting point is 01:05:44 I hate it. Someone else in this building just heard that and is running. A goose runs in. Is it too cold? Of course! Yes sir. It has a bunch of things, like it has a bunch of abilities. Including like its attack is like a pseudo beak and has a bubbling hiss. That's a lot of stuff. And when I asked Gus how long this thing lasts, it just lives until it dies. So this is now my little buddy until someone kills it
Starting point is 01:06:17 Yeah, so he's gonna just I'm gonna leave a little present next to a vein who's stunned those Pierre like pate leave a little present next to a Vaina who's stunned. Does Pierre like pate? He does, he does. Oh, yuck. How dare you, Pierre? He's a ooze-ling. Oh, right, right, right. He's not actually a goose.
Starting point is 01:06:32 Yeah, yeah. And so can I put him, his like initiative right after mine? Sure, why not? OK, cool, cool, cool. All right, I go, Daddy loves you. I have to go hit the strange man with green veins. Ha! And I fly up to Eddie and try to attack him with my spear. Okay
Starting point is 01:06:49 26 No, that's a dirty 26 fear spirit Baker does 1d 8 7 plus 7 14 And that's uh Piercing down's piercing damage. Piercing damage. And give me that. What's going on?
Starting point is 01:07:13 Shiggy-de-shuau. Oh. 55. Let's go ahead and make that a stunning strike as well. For Eddie. I'm sure he'll pass. I'm sure he's got like, that's a con. Constitution? Yeah. And what's the DC? 16? 16. for any sure he'll pass I'm sure he's got like that's a constitution yeah and
Starting point is 01:07:25 what's the DC 16 16 I rolled a 1 d&d gods I will say Eddie does have that ability where he can choose to succeed a fail saving throw. Oh. Eat a butt! So. That's a pretty OP skill. Yeah. Um, he, uh, yeah, that's a one, but, uh. He failed. He makes it. It succeeds. I guess I gotta hit him again then.
Starting point is 01:07:56 Yeah, cause there's only one reaction probably. Is it actually, can I ask that from a meta perspective? How long, how many uses is a legendary resistance? So he can do that three times a day, but it is a reaction to Blaine you know it's not a reaction a bonus action and my bonus action is flurry of blows okay thank you Micah for keeping track of it okay Micah what are you doing then I need limitations as few as there are then I think that's it Yeah, I'm good crystal okay, that's it for my tea oh you're gonna do the I'm so glad I use this and I'm terrible at using my inventory.
Starting point is 01:08:45 Where did I get this? In the Shrek scourge? What was the place underneath the vamp spire? The dregs. Dregs. I think I got it there. Okay. You can move through a space as narrow as one inch wide. Sorry, I'm reading all this. If a creature touches you or hits you with a melee attack,
Starting point is 01:09:02 it takes asset damage. Actions. Pseudo-beak. Melee weapon attack. It takes asset damage actions pseudo beak melee weapon attack plus five 17 and this is on a veiner, right? Of course Okay, now that you roll that roll a d4 to see if you get the correct one. I know which one He doesn't though. He wasn't there. No, I command him. I'm commanding the oozling I think let me double check their wording on mirror image I think you have to roll it every time command the goozling to attack an enemy within range I think you have to roll it every time command the goozling to attack an enemy within range
Starting point is 01:09:28 So if it's not like his spell and I know which one's the right one Then why do I still not know what the right one is? The only time you don't have to make the check is if you have if it has blind sight or true sight All of the times every time there's an attack regardless. You have to make the check really. Mm-hmm. That's a bummer. He's a bummer Cuz it'll be our own me actually. This is kind of this is funny. Watch this. That's a bummer. He's a bummer. Cause it'll be our own main today. Actually this is kinda, this is funny, watch this. I rolled a four. That's not funny at all. No. So it goes to the wrong one, right?
Starting point is 01:09:51 So it attacks the wrong one, but- Because the Gooselink has this ability, it then keeps attacking. So, uh, it attacks the wrong one, and that one actually blinks out of existence. So now there are three of Anus. Yeah, look, the Goos at this, take them all out. Oh, there was, she made three copies? Oh yeah, that's why you made me do it four. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:10:09 It keeps attacking. It keeps attacking? The way that it works, if it fails on the attack, roll, is that a fail? No, that's a success, because it hit. Okay, so it hit, blinked that one out of existence. Correct. Okay, thank you.
Starting point is 01:10:20 Sorry, we're learning about this thing. So the next time we would roll a D6 and then divide. Correct. Yeah. Oh, I about this this thing. So the next time we roll a d6 and then correct Yeah, oh, I should have read the second attack instead. Oh, I should have done that I didn't know I didn't know how to second attack has an AOE attack. You said earlier had bubbling hiss Yeah, I didn't know that was an AOE thing Okay, that's fine. We live in we learn Yeah, I know Pierre. Okay, and as a bonus action I can move to to another aggressive creature creature that I want to be aggressive against
Starting point is 01:10:49 So I'm gonna go against can I just roll a dice and pick which one you can just say one of them You don't have to pick right now. It goes to one of them. Yeah, I'm done. Sorry that took forever Barney you're up then after Barney Elga so She goes now Unstunned yeah, I guess he would unstun now at the end of Matisse's turn, because he was not restunned. Yeah, only person stunned is,
Starting point is 01:11:09 oh no, Evanna and Eddie are stunned. No. No, Eddie's not. Correct, it's just Evanna. I have these silver metal chains and stuff. Is there a way I could like tie him around him in a way that would like... You can try. We'd have to make like an unarmed strike to touch him and then some kind of like either
Starting point is 01:11:28 strength check or athletic check. We'll just figure it out like for a grapple essentially. Like a grappling to sign up. Okay. Okay. I guess I'll give that a shot. Alright, so make an unarmed strike first of all to see if you're able to like grab him, get your hands on him. Is it 18? That's exactly what you need. So you're able to put your hands on him. Is it 18? That's exactly what you need. Just so you're able to put your hands on him. So then make a an opposed strength roll with him. Okay your fathers are hugging. Does it matter at all that I'm also using like silver on him?
Starting point is 01:11:55 Well no because this is you're trying to get him under control first before we even pull the chains out. Alright opposed strength. Thankfully I got old man strength. 18. Oh that's pretty good. My strength is plus three. Roll bad. Did you say roll bat? Bat. Bat? Bat. 8. Yes! Luckily. Alright yeah so you're able to grab him and kind of wrestle him to the
Starting point is 01:12:19 ground and you pull out the chains you start trying to tie him up with them? Time up. Ideally where I could like wrap it around his, both his like mouth and arms. Does that make sense? So it's like a chain going out of the hat. Yeah, it's hog tying. Yeah. I think hog tying is when you put like the four limbs together. Yeah, we know.
Starting point is 01:12:35 It's just a flame mill that you got, so you don't have to take it literally. And then, I don't know if I, like as part of that, like use, I have a and a hammer and I and I just like bend a hammer so it like bends the chains bend a hammer so it bends the nail like take a nail and then hit it with a hammer so bends the nails so it acts as kind of like a thing holding it together. Does that make sense? Yeah, I'm just trying to think if you have enough like actions for that kind of stuff or like you have to hold him for the next turn for that. What was the site that my goozling needed to be able to know which one to hit true site or? Blind site it has blind site it does it does Sorry, I'm learning about my goose as I go Senses blind site 60 feet Smacked where is that it's thatplexing. Gob smacked.
Starting point is 01:13:25 Where is that? It's- Is that blind sight 60 feet? Yeah. HONG! HONG! HONG! Yeah, do you want to go back and-
Starting point is 01:13:33 I just wanna- I'll just roll damage. Okay. That's all I gotta do. And I'm attacking the correct- So the mirror image is still there then? Yes. But you are attacking- Yes.
Starting point is 01:13:43 Just roll your damage for the corrective aim. Yes. And so it's not gonna be damage for the corrective aim. Yes. And so it's not going to be a lot. It's actually it's 44. That's a pretty good amount. And then also some acid damage. 4, 3, 2, 4, 1, 3, 14. Plus 2, 16 bludgeoning damage.
Starting point is 01:14:03 And then 5 plus 2 is 7 acid damage. Oh. Uh-huh. And these are all in the avenas? Just on the real avena. On the real. Damage? You know, my parents didn't buy me a goozling
Starting point is 01:14:14 when I was a little kid, so I don't really know a lot about them. So I'm just learning as I go. It really tells you, like, if you're going to get a pet, do the research first. OK, yeah, that's a good amount of damage. Why do you think I don't have a dog? I said good goozling. I hate that goozling. Honk. And step back into the conversation Like if you're gonna get a pet do the research first Okay, yeah, that's a good amount of damage Goozling I hate that goozling Step back into the conversation with Barney
Starting point is 01:14:29 I'd say if you want to try to like bend a nail and do all that that's gonna have to be like another Action like you have him held for now, but yeah, I think now we're like that's a lot of stuff to do it But once okay, then I guess I with the way I'm tied him up Is it a thing where I'm confident that he can't get out of it at this point? I mean, you feel like you have the upper hand for now. Okay. You think, you know, he's gonna, of course,
Starting point is 01:14:50 continue to try to fight, but I can't say, because we're gonna probably have to make another roll or something. So he's like grappled then? Yes, he is currently restrained. Excellent. Because of the silver, does that give it any sort of advantage?
Starting point is 01:15:01 I don't know. Ooh. So it kept him in the coffin. Yeah, but she just brought that coffin with us. Should have grabbed it on the way out of the cut, the toppling van spire. Was that my action or a bonus action? Bonus action.
Starting point is 01:15:14 Just shoving a coffin into your, it's your bag of holding. Then for my bonus action. You step on the nail. I'm going to, I guess... How far away is Eddie? He's too far away. I'll use my spiritual weapon and bonk him with a statue of me and Elgo.
Starting point is 01:15:33 Bonk Hugo? Yeah. Bonk Hugo? You were talking about Eddie, then he says, I'm gonna bonk him. I don't know who you're talking about. Would this have advantage since he's tied up? Roll it and then let's find out. Okay.
Starting point is 01:15:46 In the theatrical adaptation of this campaign, there's actually a really good Hugo already out there that could play your dad, Hugo Weaving. Oh. That's a good creepy vampire dad. I wanna watch that. Yeah, attack rolls against the creature have advantage. Has the statue changed to Barney helping Elga ride a bike?
Starting point is 01:16:02 Yeah. That's 22 and 29. That's a hit. That's a six. Okay. Total damage. Of force damage. And then that's the end of my turn. I'll just stay there kind of holding the chains.
Starting point is 01:16:15 Okay. Elga. Okay, I still have Hunter's Mark on you. Fake dad. I see you. I see you. Did they move away from me when Barney was doing all this? Or are they still? No, we're right there. Hugo and Barney. Oh no, they're still right by you. Did they move away from me when Barney was doing all this or they still Go and Barney. Oh, no, they're still right by you. Okay, cool. Could I please use my
Starting point is 01:16:31 Bathtole axe? Yes, and can I hit him with my battle axe? Okay that Is a net 20 I'm a big fan that so far we've all been mostly fighting our nemesis. Like you and Barney are fighting bad dad. And Blaine went straight for Eddie, and I went for a Vayna. Wait, is it Vayna? Yeah. He's declared it.
Starting point is 01:16:55 Yeah. And that is a 23 points of damage. OK, let me double check that, make sure that it did the crit correctly. It's 2d10 plus seven. I just want to make sure you're getting all of the damage you should be getting out of this. So what we're going to do is we're going to change one of those.
Starting point is 01:17:12 We're going to change that second one from a nine to a ten. So it's actually 24 points of damage. And then plus another d6 because he is my hunter's mark. So that's an extra five. So it'd be 29. Are you raging? I'm not. Oh.
Starting point is 01:17:28 Because she used the bonus action for Hunter's Mark at the start. Yeah, I could have done it this turn. I just forgot. Full disclosure. I was just too focused on... Yeah, yeah, yeah. ...swinging a shwiny one. Ironically. Yeah, ironically you're so angry you forgot to rage. Well, it's also because I have a different bonus action in mind.
Starting point is 01:17:42 Oh, cool. And then I'm going to hit him again. Okay, keep you watch the show once again No, I don't know if that'll hit that's a 16. Oh you have advantage because he's restrained. Oh Wonderful another 16 that does not hit As a bonus action, I want to use my bat barrage So for this one when you attack a creature You could use a bonus action to speak a command word and the battle axe transforms into a swarm of bats that attacks the target for up to one minute. When the swarm is killed or if the target is killed the swarm
Starting point is 01:18:14 turns back into a battle axe and falls to the ground. So the axe flies out of your hands forms a swarm of bats and surrounds Hugo and begins attacking him, biting at him. Sorolla d20 and add four for that attack. D20 coming in. Yes. Five plus four, nine. Yeah. So they don't actually hit, but they're, you know, annoying him. They're in his space, biting at him, flapping all around.
Starting point is 01:18:34 Okay. You have inspiration there? No. You're so funny though. Why are you not? I just, I used it on my last one. I think she did use it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:40 Yeah. Uh, and that's, that's my turn. Okay. Good turn. Wee. It's a Venus turn. Oh, I thought it was my turn. She. Yeah, and that's my turn. Okay. Good turn. Wee! It's a Venus turn. Oh, I thought it was my turn. She's stunned.
Starting point is 01:18:49 You're after a Venus. Okay, I'll wait. Okay, so there are still four Avanas. I thought one got... No, we ended up retconning that because the Goozling has a million abilities. A blind sight. Never mind. Hong Kong.
Starting point is 01:19:04 This'll be fun. Oh no. And Matide, you left and you're up at the top, right? Yeah. By the way, big thank you to the community for that gooseling. As a good item. Yeah, thank you guys. Gus loves it. Came up with that in Discord.
Starting point is 01:19:17 Oh, I was there for the making of this. I forgot. It's like I made it just for you, Gus. Just for you. Goose. Goose down. Okay. You can't really see because you, you know, you flew away from her. Uh, Butavaina starts her eyes and begins looking at you, Matthea. Make a wisdom saving throw. What is she trying to do?
Starting point is 01:19:36 I'll tell you. In a second. Okay. We're just normal men. You're right. So... Why was that so funny? That video doesn't make any sense. It's the best meme. What is that?
Starting point is 01:19:51 It's a puppet talking to a woman. We were just men? Normal men? 14. You feel your limbs beginning to lock up a bit. You feel like someone's using a whole person on you. What effect does that do? Paralyze.
Starting point is 01:20:06 Is Matide humanoid? Yes, I double checked it. Erichocrens are bird-like humanoids. Even though they're ghosts? Correct. Okay, yeah, I don't think there's anything I can do to counter that. I'm not immune to paralyze. These stunners are now the stunned.
Starting point is 01:20:22 Stunners. So you freeze up until at the end of your turn you can make another wisdom saving throw. You're incapacitated, can't move or speak, you fail, strength and dexterity saving throws, attacks against you have advantage. Any attack that hits the creature is a critical hit if the attacker is within five feet. It's kind of like stunned. Very similar. I guess that takes away the cold arrow I was gonna launch in your direction. I'll hold off on it.
Starting point is 01:20:47 Is there anything else that Vayna can do? No, Chip, you're up. I know he's like super high up and all that stuff. How high would I be able to reach him in a single turn if I climbed up that thing? Do you really get to the top of the stump in one turn? Yeah. It's a 50 foot climb.
Starting point is 01:21:00 I don't think you could get up there even with a double move. Okay, I can still see Eddie though, right? Yeah, you still see him. Okay, then I'm gonna shoot with crossbow of coolness again. That's a oh my god. It's not 20 28 Believe it or not. That's it. Okay Believe it or not straight to jail So it already one of the rolls was the six that's the one I normally do that second one
Starting point is 01:21:25 So that is correct damage 15 points from the crossbow and also matide is within five feet of Eddie. Yeah Yes, they okay, so then I also use sneak attack, but my teeth is not threatening because my teeth is paralyzed You really gonna do this? They're gonna still attack even though they don't have advantage on them's the way it works! They're not threatening? They're gonna still attack even though they don't have advantage on it. Them's the rules. He's gotta be rules on some things. He's literally surrounded by enemies and he's not gonna get used to that. Well they're not able to do anything.
Starting point is 01:21:51 Alright, well fine! Then I use a bonus action to uh, hide. I'm gonna hide. There you go. And then uh, uh, heck it. I'll actually, if my walking speed is 40, can I start climbing? Or is it, walking is, climbing speed's half of a... Correct.
Starting point is 01:22:09 Okay. And if you're hiding, make a stealth check, just so I have note of what it was. Okay. I, let me double check that my shoes don't give me anything, uh... I think they give you advantage, don't they? They do on stealth. I'm more talking about if I tried to climb. I don't know if they have anything about that. You get 10 feet of movement speed
Starting point is 01:22:28 What gives you a little more you get so instead of 15 feet of climb you get 20 Yeah, no, I that's cuz I wouldn't be able to complete it by the time. So I'm just gonna I'm just gonna hide I'm just gonna hide and then I'm gonna do a stealth check And you're so you're not climbing. No, okay, that's a 25 and a 27. All right. All right. Sneak attack.
Starting point is 01:22:48 Don't lie. Sneak attack. Hey, there's the rules. You got to play by the rules. Constantly being real mean. You're being such a mean. All right, is that your future? Yes, it is.
Starting point is 01:22:57 Actually, maybe the only movement I can imagine doing is just getting it in a more advantageous. Advent. Say it again. Take two. Aventages spots. Maybe I'm up in the stands or something, that way I have a better perspective on Eddie. That way he can't like hide from my angle.
Starting point is 01:23:12 That could help, but then you end up getting further away at the same time. Okay, then I'll just hide. All right, so Dante, she's gonna try to get out of her restraints. Oh, so I apologize, it says it in there it says You don't need advantage on the attack role for another enemy the target is within five feet that enemy is an in contact and Capacitated and you don't have to do so that's my bad. Yeah
Starting point is 01:23:39 Well, they're not they're like a non combatant because of this thing and I was like well, but yeah, they are combatant Yeah, they're not they're like a non combatant because of this thing and I was like well, but yeah, they are combatant Yeah, they're not able to my apologies Yeah The spirit the spirit behind it is that your ally or their other enemies supposed to be there kind of threatening them So their attention is distracted and you're able to get like that critical strike in or that you know Precise strike if they're not threatening it's like all their attention can be focused on you as opposed to there That makes it sorry for this It's like all their attention can be focused on you as opposed to there. That makes sense. Sorry for the hiss-fit.
Starting point is 01:24:04 Uh, no problem. Sadate, Alchemist, or back up at the top with Hugo who is currently restrained. At this point, maybe it's because of the earthquakes or some other unseen disaster, but the tide of Loch Cessnest starts pouring into the amphitheater from the south, covering the forest floor in two feet of loch-weed. Curious blue viscous fluid comingater from the south. Covering the forest floor in two feet of lockwood. Curious blue viscous fluid coming in from the south. Some of you are gonna be touching it though. You're fine because you're a bird but Elga, Barney and Chip. I have a question. Do we have any sort of chance to react to this or do anything? It's all happening pretty quick. What kind of like damage is it doing? Or like, what effects does it have?
Starting point is 01:24:47 It's really weird. You all, I guess, don't know. You didn't see it. But when Chip touched it, it made him lose his memory briefly. How long have we been in combat for? This is round three. So 12 seconds. 12 seconds, OK.
Starting point is 01:25:02 So it's not like necrotic or disease or anything like that, is it? No. So those of you who are on the ground who I mentioned, Okay, is it it's not so it's not like necrotic or disease or anything like that is no So those of you who are on the ground who I mentioned make Constitution saving throws 21 16 19. Okay chip is the only one who succeeded 20 or more probably that's mean So mean wait, well, why So mean. I don't remember. Wait, why is he mean? I don't remember. They're just saying I'm mean. He's doing the fact that he forgot his memory.
Starting point is 01:25:30 He's following the rules. Oh, yes. Thank you, Robert. Yeah, I got you. I got the joke. The layer. I didn't get it. That's pretty good.
Starting point is 01:25:38 So where was I? Uh, Elga? You are awesome. Thank you. Your memory becomes fuzzy and you can't remember how you got here to this spot and you can't remember how you got here to this spot. I don't remember how I got here to this spot. You feel like for some reason the last hour of your memory is just really fuzzy and hazy. For some reason the last hour of my memory is
Starting point is 01:25:55 funny and hazy. Can I respond to this? Can Chip respond to this? Yeah sure. We're in the middle of a battle. We walked in and then they went haha welcome to, welcome to our trap. And it's Hugo and Evanna and Eddie's up on that big thing and the alchemist is up there too. And bad, we gotta fight. So you said a round is six seconds, right? So how many rounds did Chip's speech just take? Ha ha ha. Barney, same applies to you.
Starting point is 01:26:20 This isn't your normal dementia. Ha ha ha. But I imagine like we know, our memory loss isn't like of who's bad and who's good type thing. Correct. Yeah. It's just like the last hour. You still recognize everyone. Then you know what everyone is. You like you remember the vampire. All of that stuff. It's just the last hour is just sad for some reason. Terrible thought to think that you're just like suddenly in combat and you're like, where am I?
Starting point is 01:26:44 It's actually scary. Luckily Barney you don't suffer from that. Oh what? His mastery of dimension. So that whatever happened didn't affect him? Barney yeah you remember everything. You just feel like you grow way older. As you're standing there you get 15 years older.
Starting point is 01:27:02 Oh that's another 15 years. And meta game ew. That's another 15 years. And meta game-wise, you take a level of exhaustion. But that doesn't have an Elga? No. Yours is just the memory. OK. Exhaustion. Why is that happening to Barney?
Starting point is 01:27:14 It might be like a random thing. It's a random thing. Oh, gotcha. What stuff are they dumping into this lock? Are they polluting this place? Yeah. Sounds like it. And then Chip, you succeeded your saving throw, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:27:25 Also, wouldn't Hugo also be affected by this? Yes. And I'm going to roll theirs here in a second. OK. Oh, Chip, you also get the aging thing. Oh. Oh, but you succeeded, so yours isn't as bad. Oh, OK.
Starting point is 01:27:35 I was going to say, am I like a silver fox? You get 13 years older. So does that have an effect? But no exhaustion. You just have disadvantage on your next action. You see what what good cardiovascular workout can do for you? It's like fine wine. Everybody take note. Eddie you too you look like hell. So it would also affect Hugo and that's it. Not Avena? Avena's up
Starting point is 01:28:02 in the stands. So it's only like two feet deep. So it's only the ground. Let me roll Hugo's save here. He rolls a seven. However, he can also choose to succeed on a save. And he does. What? He has that stupid power as well.
Starting point is 01:28:18 My next character, I'm going to go for that man. It's his turn. So he's restrained. And he's still being attacked by the bats? Yes, he's being attacked by the bats and he's being held down by the silver chains. That's right. So he's practically dead. And he is submerged in this stuff. Oh he's drowning. Yeah, yeah. I'd say he's gonna try to struggle his way out of it. Make me an opposed strength check here, Barty. Don't forget you have inspiration if you fail this.
Starting point is 01:28:47 And exhaustion. So I have disadvantage on this? Why are we whispering? I don't know. I just wanted to be part of it. How does it... How does it inspiration? First one, 21. You should do a whole ASMR campaign at some point.
Starting point is 01:28:58 No one will listen. Second one is 12. What would Inspo do on that? Yeah, what would it... Well, let me roll and then we'll see. Okay. Wait, did I have advantage? Disadvantage, I think. Oh, I had disadvantage, so that would be a 12. What would InSpo do on that? Yeah, what would it? Well, let me roll and then we'll see. Wait, did I have advantage? Disadvantage, I think. Oh, I had disadvantage, so that would be a 12.
Starting point is 01:29:09 Yeah. Because you're exhausted. Barney, you're so tired. You're so tired you blow your... Does the, what does the silver do to him? It helps. I've never said explicitly. Yeah, but it does help.
Starting point is 01:29:21 Four, so he does not succeed. Yes! Yay! So he curses at you, looking at you in in the eyes Barney. He mutters under his breath Into a giant bat But I haven't wrapped up in silver, yeah, but it's like the the size is different He goes But he sells the silver on him or what well he's able to fly free from it Yeah, yeah He flies up into the air and hover
Starting point is 01:29:53 Let's say about 50 feet up kind of kind of the same height as the tree stump. What kind of noises you make? The owl that we were making the fun of the screech, right? That was a bat. No, bat. Was it a bat? Yeah. They were fighting over... Clicks or screeches.
Starting point is 01:30:11 Yeah, that's such a good one. That's what I was getting at. Alright, so it's Eddie's turn. Of course it is. Yeah, then after Eddie is meteed, then Barney. He would take an attack of opportunity from me, though. Yeah, he would. Why not? Ah-ha. He would take attack at all opportunity from me though. Yeah, he would. Why not? Ah. For my attack of opportunity, I would like to shoot him with a silver bane.
Starting point is 01:30:30 It has to be melee. Oh yeah. Okay. Then, can I do this? Can I just stab him with one of the arrows? Sure, why not? Like, I don't know how that works. Just make a... like an... we'll call it an unarmed strike, but just make an unarmed strike so you're able to hit him. It's a nat 20. Okay. Yeah, you're able to hit him. It's a nat 20. Okay, yeah, you're able to hit him.
Starting point is 01:30:47 I only have disadvantage on ability checks, right? What does it say? It's an exhaustion. I imagine you don't have disadvantage on attack rolls. Yeah, I think it's just ability checks. What does it say? Disadvantage on ability checks. Yes!
Starting point is 01:30:59 So that's a crit! Gus is like, just read. Just read, that's all I'm asking. Sorry. Did you do the homework? Yeah. So you're able to stab him with that bolt. Go ahead and what's the damage on that?
Starting point is 01:31:10 Well, let's see. On a crit, I'll roll the damage. So that was it. And then we'll add another six to that. Well, it doesn't quite work because that damage assumes you're firing it with the force of a bow of some kind. So I'll say we'll just do the 3 plus 6 for 9. Okay, and then...
Starting point is 01:31:27 When you successfully hit an undead creature with this bolt, it deals an additional 3d8 radiant damage. The creature then has to make a constitution saving throw, DC 13, plus proficiency bonus. On a failed save, they become stunned until the end of their next turn. Okay, and it does get another plus 2 to damage because it is supernatural silver. I'm adding that in right now 11 and then the constitution saving throw constitution is plus three Additionally if the creature is an undead creature that is also a shape changer that cannot transform using their shape changer trait for another next minute For the next minute Well, that's a 16. So the six the save is successful, but it still takes the damage.
Starting point is 01:32:08 That was a good reaction. Roll the 3d8. Alright. That wouldn't be so cool. No, it already was, Chris. 3d8. It was a good thought. At 7, radiant damage.
Starting point is 01:32:20 And he's vulnerable to radiant, isn't he? I don't know if I've ever ever said but it sounds like that would be Vampiric trait and also I have a blessed strike if you're blessed with divine might battle when you creature takes damage from one of your Cantrips or weapon attacks. You can also deal 1d8 radiant damage. Yeah, I don't see any reason why that wouldn't proc the name is max So that's an extra five radiant damage. All right, my next character name in another campaign is gonna be the max That was a lot of damage for something that wasn't even your turn for a thousand year old man going All right. Is that it for my reaction for my for my attack of opportunity? Yeah All right. Yeah, he said takes a lot of damage but still flies away as a bat looking at you with evil angry bad eyes Yeah, emotionally. Where's he at right now?
Starting point is 01:33:08 It's not good. Stay away from my family All right Eddie's turn who's up here there's a paralyzed mateed chip is down below hiding He goes off to the side as a bat. You can't find me. And Alchemist is still up there too, right? Yeah. Where am I, Eddie? Come find me.
Starting point is 01:33:32 Come find me. Oh, I know. Eddie will close the distance over to Matide and put out his arms wide. He's going to go in for a real loving hug. I think it's not going to be a hug. It's not very loving. But this is good though. You want this. He slithering his foot like a dummy. That hits.
Starting point is 01:33:49 AC 28. Oh my god. So yeah he wraps his arms around you and holds tight squeezing you doing 27 points of bludgeoning damage. Can you do like a dirty dancing where you lift Eddie above your head? How much was that? 27. 27? 27 points of bludgeoning damage and you are grappled. How's your HP doing?
Starting point is 01:34:14 That's the first time I've taken a real hit. Yeah, he hugs you tight. Doesn't that feel good? Man, the urge right now that is trying to like struggle through the incapacitation to just peck him. He is like perfect position. Well, it is now, can I do anything else? That's it.
Starting point is 01:34:39 So it is now your turn, Mattheath and Barney the Neligo. Okay, I can't do anything except for check to see if I can get out of this incapacitation. Yeah, and that's at the end of your turn. Right, right, so as I'm saying, I can't do anything except for check to see if I can get out of this incapacitation. Yeah, and that's at the end of your turn. Right, right, so as I'm saying, I can't do anything but that. Sure. Okay, so what's the check?
Starting point is 01:34:49 Wisdom saving throw. You can do it, I believe in you, Matide. Come on. I need you to talk in a very, very small mouth voice. Come on, Matide, you can do it. I'm using inspiration, that was a one. Use your inspiration, yes. I got Matide.
Starting point is 01:35:04 Oh, that's a nat with like, it's like it's like plus four I think so not 20. Yeah. Yeah, you yeah, you got it Where's off you like you're able to shake your way out of it No, you're still grappled, but you can actually finally move again. I have you right where I want you Grappling you and your eyes just bursting open and be like, I see you. It enrages you so much. Barney, wait. You make the check at the end.
Starting point is 01:35:31 Oh, the Goosling. Yeah. Yeah. And the Goosling knows which one to actually know, wait. Well, it's got blind sight, so they can automatically pick the right one. But the other ones remain though, correct? Correct.
Starting point is 01:35:46 I kind of want to get rid of them because I think that would be beneficial for any further actions against curses. This little snot rag. So it has bubbling hiss. You ferociously hiss and exhale acidic bubbles in a 15-foot cone. Are they that close to each other?
Starting point is 01:36:04 Yes. OK. Each creature in that area must make a DC 13 deck saving throw Acidic bubbles in a 15 foot cone. Are they that close to each other? Yes Okay Each creature in that area must make a DC 13 deck saving throw and they all take like damage or half damage no matter what? so regardless all of the DC 13 deck safe my decks is plus six. So I need a seven or better. Okay, 15. So that's 21. Okay, 3d 6 5 4 6
Starting point is 01:36:33 15 plus 2 17. Yeah, so half that so we're gonna do a damage Cool, and then I guess it's in melee range. What? Yeah. So I think honk. Yeah, that's it. That's it. I'm being very careful about letting this guy go, because I missed using him well last time. So yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:56 And done. OK. Barney. Barney the Nelga. Where's the water that's around us? How is it like? On the ground. It's coming in from the southern portion.
Starting point is 01:37:05 So like how much is it? Like two feet deep. Two feet deep. Okay. And then how far away is Hugo? He flew up right? Yeah, he flew up 50 feet above. 50 feet above?
Starting point is 01:37:15 Okay. Question, if I did my steps of night, would I be able to grab Alga? Steps of night. I can get my flying speed equal to my walking speed. Is it night time? It is not. It's late afternoon. So yeah, I mean, you could, but it's not dim light or darkness.
Starting point is 01:37:30 Could he maybe use a spell to cause another light to appear in the area, which then would make it dimmer everywhere else? Yeah, how does that work? I mean, it's fine. Just being serious. I am making a callback to you trying to do that in the height and sink episode, where you thought adding a that in the height and sink episode Where you thought adding a light to the room would make it dimmer. It's made a little dumber
Starting point is 01:37:54 I guess is there a higher area around? I mean you go up the seating the seatings like stadium style for it goes up That's why I have ain't it wasn't affected by by the Lockwood. Yeah, how far away is that? It's not too far away from where you are. It's only like five to ten feet away. And then is that towards or away from Hugo? So he went up. He went straight up. Yeah, he's on that Z axis. Okay.
Starting point is 01:38:20 Come on, where are my geometry nerds at? Right here, baby. I want to ask you, you said like how far up? 40 feet? 50. 50? Then I want to try and shoot him again. Can I jump towards the stands and shoot up at him while I jump?
Starting point is 01:38:37 Yeah, I mean, I would say that would be a disadvantage. You can move and then shoot. All right, I'll do that. It won't be as cool, Gus. Yeah, you can move up onto the stands like 10 feet up and like that doesn't put you very high. It puts you just like just above the lock width, but you know, you're out of it. Then you can take a shot. And so how close am I to him now?
Starting point is 01:38:56 I'm at that point 45 feet. Okay, then yeah, I'm gonna shoot him with the silver bane bolt. I guess at disadvantage. Are you, I mean this wouldn't be disadvantage disadvantage is just if you were like well jumping and trying To do that. Yeah, but the range of it is 30. Oh gotcha. Yeah Well actually says the crossbow says 80 feet but then the silver Bane bolt says 30 So I'm shooting it with the crossbow. So yeah, they are just ammo being fired by Normal 80 feet. Okay, cool. Your normal 80 fit a range for the copy. Yes. Yes. Yes All right. Well, then I'm gonna shoot him with a silver vein bolt. That's a 26
Starting point is 01:39:29 That hits yes, and I'm gonna roll for that. That's six and then I I guess plus two Yeah, so eight and then I make the save. Yeah 22 So I still take the damages and they're like a 3D8 radiant damage as well? Yeah, 3D8 radiant damage. I'll roll that now. That's 13. Okay. Plus I'll then do my, the same action again,
Starting point is 01:39:54 the whatever, blessed strike or whatever it's called. Oh, right. So I can do that once per turn. That was only one. But it's all radiant. Once you deal this damage, you can just start your next turn. Yep, okay, okay one all right, that's my action and movement right yes You still have some movement if you want to move more
Starting point is 01:40:13 Then yeah, I would get go up as much as I can Yeah, you can keep climbing up the stairs a bit more just to put more distance between yourself and the lockwood is there anyone? Within 20 feet of me at this point. Mm-hmm. I mean not not no enemy no and then you move no there's no one within 20 feet even Elga's a little further away at this point Elga have you taken damage no I guess technically I have then I'll do mass healing word I mean I took five points of damage I don't know if it's worth to using right now well then I'll then I Well, then I'll just do my regular healing word if you don't need it.
Starting point is 01:40:49 Okay, I'll do healing merge on myself. I'm at 103 out of 108. What's your healing word? Can't be been gay. Give me a new one. It's... Mm-mm. That's a weird one.
Starting point is 01:40:59 I'll throw you one in. Prunes. Prunes! The magical fruit. Pentamusal. Pentamusal. Pentamusal. And is that it for Barney? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:41:09 Alright, it's Elga, then Evina, then Chip. Elga's probably like, what is happening? Claire. I'm going to rage. Get that out of the way. So confused. Yeah, so confused and angry. Angry.
Starting point is 01:41:22 And then I'm going to see that there's water all over the ground. Lockwood. Lockwood, thank you. Would I know that though? Who knows? Yeah. And then I want to run up into the stands. Okay. Kind of following Barney I assume?
Starting point is 01:41:33 Yeah. Get up, get some higher ground there so we're not in the water anymore. Lockwood. Thank you. Lockwood. And then between me and Hugo, are we within 60 feet of each other because you said he's 60 feet He went 50 feet up you walked over there. We're doing hypotenuse math again. He's a probably he's probably about 60 Okay, I would like to throw my axe of the scarab. Okay at him eating it do
Starting point is 01:42:01 28 That hits I would imagine so. Doing 13 plus 3 from my rage. 16 points of damage. Alright, 16, got it. And then I'm gonna do it again. Alright. Keeping it simple.
Starting point is 01:42:16 Oh, also Hunter's Mark. Right? So, okay, another D6, which is another 3. So add that on. Nice. And then I hit again for 22. For 22 or you hit 22? Hit 22, sorry. Yeah, that on. Nice. And then I hit again for 22. For 22 or you hit 22? Hit 22, sorry. Yeah, that hits. Okay, doing, so that's 12 plus three is 15 plus two.
Starting point is 01:42:31 So another 17 points of damage. 17, okay. And then, hmm, and then. And then, yes and. Yes and, could I put on my ring of springtime? Sure, why not. What does that do? Fabled ring, crafted from...
Starting point is 01:42:51 Ignis... Glass... And infused with the blood of youths! Oh. Oh, this is an action, nevermind, I can't, I don't think I can put it on. It says, using an action, the ring can transform the target's body into a mature adult in their prime. You can put it on, just, you can't activate it.
Starting point is 01:43:04 Okay, I put it on. So many rings. I can hear those. Oh, there's some R rings. And that'll be it. Okay, it is Evina's turn, then Chip. Evina! Sister!
Starting point is 01:43:17 Sister, come get me, fake sister! Come out and play! Come out and play. Want what? Play with us! The goozling's just packing at her so she can't really pay attention. She looks across the amphitheater to you, Elga. She looks at the goozling and looks at Matide. And then she actually addresses Matide.
Starting point is 01:43:36 With a sneer she says, You should have never sent me to the Australian plane. Now I know where it is! And with that she blinks out of existence. Oh, that's scary. Uh oh, our stuff. Oh. Yeah, I did what I could do. She's too powerful.
Starting point is 01:43:53 She's creepy. She's pretty powerful and creepy. And then a short time later, she blinks back into existence atop the stump. I feel like she should be able to travel that far, but you know, that's just because it's a stinker, man. Chip, you're up. Hey there, Chip Panty here. Good to see you. How you doing?
Starting point is 01:44:08 Okay I didn't know who to respond to I'm gonna shoot the crust. Okay. Okay, really quick. They're on top of the stump I know that the alchemist is up there And I know that Eddie is up there. And now Avena. And Avena and Matide. Two questions one how far away is Hugo from them. You can't see him because the stump is in the way blocking it. Okay. Chip doesn't know it But Blaine you heard this Hugo is 50 feet up in the air But on the other side of the stump from you so you can't see him But he's at the same height of the top of the stump,
Starting point is 01:44:45 but just on the other side. Outside of my dear sweet Matide, is there anybody within 10 feet of Eddie? Within 10 feet would be maybe a Vayna and the Alchemist. You wouldn't know that because you can't see. Okay. But if I like shoot that ice thing, it's like 46 ice damage,
Starting point is 01:45:00 is that gonna like totally mess you up, dude? I mean, possibly. That's a big range. Okay, all right. Well then I'm just gonna shoot the totally mess you up, dude. I mean possibly that's a big range. Okay All right. Well, then I'm just gonna shoot the crossbow of coolness at Eddie. I already made that roll and it was a 24 16 plus 8 And then I'm gonna do the damage and that's eight points of damage Eight points of damage on Eddie and then we also have the thing
Starting point is 01:45:27 that you might not let happen but that's okay because I forgive you because Matisse is within five feet does that not incapacitate correct Matisse is not incapacitate in fact Matisse is grappling with Eddie so that is the maximum level of engagement you can have oh great so then that lets me do a sneak attack yes you can add your sneak, great. So then that lets me do a sneak attack. Yeah, you can add your sneak dice to that. OK, and I think that is I'm looking for it. I think it's five to six.
Starting point is 01:45:51 I believe you are at five to six. OK, cool. This is all from memory. So I'm just so good. All right, here we go. We're going to roll that cha cha cha. See a lot of ones. See six. 18. It's pretty good. OK, there's that.
Starting point is 01:46:04 So that was my attack. and then as far as movement... I'm still in the water, yeah? Lockwood. I'm so sick, Gus. I'm so sorry. If you just said liquid, he wouldn't be able to direct you. I've been stepping on a line so much this campaign. Everyone keeps saying water. Am I in Lockwood?
Starting point is 01:46:20 Yes, you are. Okay, then I'm gonna move out of it. I'm gonna get into the stand so that I can get above it. Yeah, it's pretty easy to move over there out of the lockwood. And then I'm also gonna use cunning action to hide. Okay, make your stealth roll. You probably would say it's not liquid, it's lockwood. No, he couldn't, because it is a liquid.
Starting point is 01:46:36 Yes, it is a liquid. Liquid is an elemental state. The wet stuff, how about that? Yeah, that works. 23 and a 29. 29 then, right? 29 is advantage. Yep.
Starting point is 01:46:47 And then I poop out of appearance. That's my turn. I bow. Thank you and good night. Heck of a dance, man. Thanks. It's the source of his heckish rebuke. With that, the alchemist finishes brewing his potion, draws from the draft and stiffly
Starting point is 01:47:00 holds out a glass vial, dripping with golden fluid. With lightning speed, Hugo flies in and snatches the elixir from his hands and quaffs the concoction without hesitation. The alchemist's eyes turn back to Hazel, albeit horror-stricken. Hugo smiles wide for a moment, but it quickly fades and starts retching violently,
Starting point is 01:47:17 hurling sallow slop onto the floor. You worthless peddler of potions! You'll pay for your impotence! Hugo heads straight for the alchemist, his fangs and claws extended, ready to rip through the man's throat. But at the last moment, a skinless figure steps between them. Hugo's claws plunge deep into Eddy's sinewy chest, and green blood spews from his verdant veins. Eddy cries out in agony and falls to his knees. Out of my way, you cursed lunatic!
Starting point is 01:47:43 Oh, but where's the sun in that? Hey, Hugo! Cough cough cough cough cough Your usefulness has run its course, Edward. Hugo lunges Fang first into his see-wee neck and Eddie wraps both his hulking arms around the vampire like a constricting snake. Eddie laughs maniacally one last time and pulls Hugo with him into the blue viscous lava. Not but a moment later, a vampiric visage emerges,
Starting point is 01:48:11 drenched in the sapphire slime. Hugo shrieks as his skin boils and curls into a disfigured abomination. Ah! One way or another, this ends now. Two sinewy wings rip off from his back, and the hideous Hugo flies off to the east. The alchemist stumbles to the ground. He shakes his head with furrowed brows.
Starting point is 01:48:33 I don't understand. The elixir was ready, so why didn't it? Wh-where am I? D-dad? A boy with olive complexion, rosy cheeks, dressed in torn rags, steps out from the lockwood. What? Henry? What?
