This is a Rooster Teeth Production.
Good evening to all you auto-melodron.
Fall into the stinky drag and throw back our latest thirst quencher, Harvested Interest. It's a mixture of chaff
and chaff, freshly brewed expressions of goodwill, honeycomb cocoa, revivified vanilla topped with
chocolate bark shavings. One gulp of this guzzler you'll feel finer than fae stepping into foliage.
Previously our adventurers were expelled to the plain of Pyroa without a plan.
After meeting Mags, they perambulated through the plains of Ignis and encountered an imprisoned Afridi named Daffy.
They freed the Afridi from a fiery fate and were plain shifted back to the Pyramid of Antique.
Nab some nectar, nestle in for our noxious narrative.
Afridi, Didi, Afridi, Afridi, Afridi, Didi, Afridi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didi, Didedy, deedy, freedy, freedy,

Blurble, gerble.
After that tongue twister,
can anyone tell me the name of the Afridi?
Deedy.
Deedy.
I just said it.
Deedy.
Deedy.
Deedy.
Deedy.
Afrid.
Am I close? He's going to keep going. Something along the freedy deedy deedy deedy. Dee-dee-dee-vee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee- The role play and warm up question is, your character's home is on fire. They can only save three things. What would they be?
One of them's a rabbit, right?
Nice reference.
Nice callback.
Thank you.
Thank you.
That's campaign one.
I'll start.
Well, hello.
I'm Barbara Zunkelman and I am playing the character of Elga Von Brath, the female half elf, vampire, barbarian, level five as well.
As John closes Blaine's laptop.
I want to see if Blaine can introduce himself today.
Because you did the thing where you looked at your thing.
And I was like, can Blaine do it without looking at his thing?
Yeah, yeah.
He just looks right at it.
Sorry, Barbara.
Oh, no, thank you.
And I think if Elga needs to save three things,
obviously number one would be her teddy bear. Oh, Elga thank you. And I think if Elga needs to save three things, obviously, number one would be her teddy bear.
Oh, Elga has a teddy bear?
It's not like a different stuffed animal?
No, it's an actual teddy bear.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, a classic teddy bear that she was given when she was a child
many hundreds of years ago.
Oh, this must be a little raggedy.
A little raggedy, indeed.
It's just the paw.
The eye is hanging out.
And then I think she'd
also save the photo of her and her
sister that she has on her night table.
Her and her twin sister.
And then last but certainly not least,
she'd take her axe.
I'm like, really? You have a twin sister?
Yes, she does.
I think she's mentioned that a long time ago.
My Elgalore dropped previously.
On previous Elgalore.
I like reminders.
I like reminders.
Does your teddy bear have a name?
I hate to put you on the spot.
Oh, gosh.
His name is...
What?
Boris.
Boris.
I like it.
That's a good name.
Boris the teddy bear.
Boris the bear.
Now I have to write that down.
See, there was some lore that just dropped.
Yeah, lore and bore is.
That's funny.
Who's next?
I'll go.
I'm Chris Damaris, and I play the human priest Barney Farney.
Priest?
Cleric.
I would pay money to have a video of Chris's face
right there.
Barbara just broke his brain.
It was the best.
I was like, does something change when you leveled up last night?
Hey, inspiration dice to Barbara for cashmere.
I was taking a plush.
The three
things. One,
sing them for us, Barney.
Barney doesn't sing
My pocket watch
And then all my
Cleric supplies
Like you know
Which are your sin box
And then you know
The stuff for fighting undead
And you know all the cleric stuff
Clearly you're an expert.
And then, of course,
my dentures.
Oh.
Wait,
Marniel dentures?
Those aren't your real teeth?
Well,
they're my real teeth now.
No, he actually has
real teeth
and puts a pair of dentures
on top of that.
Okay, he looks like
a Bee Gees band member.
Of course those are dentures.
He's very teethy.
They are very straight and white
and have no spaces in between them.
I never noticed.
It's just a solid tooth on the top
and a solid tooth on the bottom.
Matin, why don't you go ahead?
I'll take mine last.
Okay.
I'm John Reisner.
I play Matin Confucius,
who's the Aarakocrin ghost monk.
If the house was on fire,
I'm not very attached to earthly things,
which is part of having passed.
But I do have my favorite spatula, as any chef should have, as any baker.
Is it the good luck spatula?
Yes.
What is your spatula's name?
It cannot be Boris.
That name's taken.
Cloris.
Livin?
Dratula.
And it's a little vampire Dratula.
I would take, obviously, my recipe books that I have gathered for many, many years.
They're just full of many secret recipes that I adore and love.
And then I would, the house is on fire,
so I would have to grab Jacques.
Jacques is a necessity at this point.
I've grown very much attached to this cat.
Interesting.
Something that's come along so lately
is now like in your top three most important.
Yeah, yeah.
Like I said, I'm not very attached to earthly things,
but this cat rocks.
Earthly things?
I love the idea of Matisse saying this cat rocks
because it's so not in their like vocabulary, it seems.
Gus, briefly reset the question up again one more time.
Your character's home is on fire.
They can only say three things.
What would they be?
Okay, this here situation, it's a bunch of garbo.
All right, this wouldn't happen to Chip Haney.
All right, he is a volunteer firefighter.
So he's got all of the up-to-date smoke detecting magic equipment in every 10 foot area of his home.
It would never catch on fire.
And if it did.
Lightning strike.
What?
Lightning strike.
Oh, no.
The house is on fire.
Who could have seen that?
Well, of course, I'd protect not to objectify my wife, but I would protect and take, uh,
Carol, uh, if she was in the home, which she is not because she's missing.
I had no idea.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
Uh, cause Chip lore.
Uh, I would take skipper.
Uh, obviously he's a bird.
What kind of bird?
Cop.
Cato.
Cockatoo.
Cockatoo.
Did you say cop to two?
Yeah. He's got a little mustache.
And then lastly...
What kind of bird would have a mustache?
I wear my fanny pack at all times, so I don't know if that counts.
Maybe just a fire extinguisher, you know?
You would save a fire extinguisher from your house that's on fire?
Well, because I don't want the fire to spread to my neighbor's house.
Can you imagine if I lit Bill's house on fire?
Oh, goodness. Here's what Chip should
actually do. Yeah? Is that you brought up
your escape route for saving
everything. What?
Your fanny pack. It's infinite holding.
It's a bag of holding now. Just start throwing everything
into your fanny pack. I thought you were saying
jump into the fanny pack.
And the fanny pack won't catch on fire.
No, you're just like literally putting
your arm on your bookshelf and just pouring everything in i guess in that case the question
would be what would the first three things you throw in be just to make sure you get them honey
get the silverware hurry jump into the bag woman get in there i love you so much sorry to call you
a woman i like how before the podcast we'd'd adjust levels to make sure that we're going to be good, and then you guys are immediately like,
I blow right through.
Also, I am Chipainy. I am
a tiefling rogue. He looked at it. He was staring
straight at it. Well, look what
happens when you don't.
I am a priest.
And I'm Rabbi Barbara.
Mazel tov. Thank you.
The sprinkling of sparks melts into thin air
and you find yourselves back at the top of the Pyramid of Antique.
But the entire throne room is empty and silent,
save for the whistling of wind.
You look up and feel the warmth of the dawning sun
pouring down through the glass ceiling,
now shattered into jagged fragments.
To the north, you find a stairway that leads up to the roof
and you see a lifeless hand stretched out at the top of the stairs.
You quickly climb the stairs and find the mummy lying on the rooftop with one hand pointing to the southwest.
Before you look, you can already smell it.
It's an odor you smelled the entire time you were in Pyrola.
Fire.
You turn your gaze to the southwest and a mountainous column of black smoke fills the sky.
I thought I told it. That's what the smell was.
Yes, fire indeed.
Do your farts smell like fire? I am a
tiefling. Tiefling farts, yeah.
Is that true? Are you messing with me?
That's a
new chip lore. Do you need me to light a candle for you?
I'm in. I'm like
one of them there charmanders that the kids
are always talking about.
It's a D&D creature.
So there's no one else here
but the lifeless body
of the mummy?
Appears to be.
Mateed checks.
What do you check on a mummy for life?
Just make an investigation check
and we'll figure it out.
Okay.
Wait a second.
While you do that,
I thought that these mummies
came back to life
because I killed a bunch
because it was guaranteed
that they'd come back to life unless some sort of
real bad magic hit her. I rolled a two.
Oh. Yeah, you think that's the
mummy. You're not entirely
sure. I'm going to do a roll.
Mummy, let me check on you. Are you okay?
Elga leans down to check on the mummy.
You can make an investigation check as well if you want.
And is this with advantage since she's up close? Oh, yeah.
May I also? Yeah, if you want.
Well, good thing I have advantage.
You rolled a one.
I rolled a one firstly.
And then for my second roll, an 18.
So 19 for Chip and an 18 for Elga.
Yes.
While Mateed is scratching their head, looking at the corpse before you, befuddled.
Mateed is doing that thing that birds do when they're just like turning their head.
Just trying to smoke the thing, you know?
Chip and Elga,
yeah, you do know that this is the mummy
and the mummy appears to be dead.
Her body burnt to a crisp.
Her hands holding her scimitars.
Oh, mummy!
Oh, no!
There are paw prints nearby
and the ground is just scorched,
and the paw prints head off towards the southwest.
The trail seems to vanish at the edge of the pyramid.
Not my friend, the mummy.
Oh, no, I'm going to loot her.
I have mummy issues, and I have bigger mummy issues,
and whoever did this will pay.
Mummy and mummy issues.
The city seems to be on fire.
What do we do about that?
I will run into the depths of the fire to avenge my mummy.
As you all are investigating the mummy's corpse
and trying to figure out what to do.
And looting her.
Ethereal sands rise from the charred corpse
and swirl into a spectral figure resembling Rider Rajad.
I'm sorry, my friends. I fought with Pharaoh Hadi from the charred corpse and swirl into a spectral figure resembling Ryder Rajad. behind where the throne once stood. Now I go to be with my ancestors,
the Antique.
The spectral sands swirl once again,
soar with the wind westward,
away from the rising sun vanishing from sight.
It's the circle of life!
Oh, facetal!
And death!
Again!
So she said the reward for us is downstairs?
Where the throne once stood.
I have a question.
Yeah.
You were describing a general like setting of what we're looking out to,
which is the city on fire.
Is there by any chance there is like a clear path of the fire?
So you see you're asking if there's like a clear view of the fire?
Yeah.
If it's clearly like this phoenix is the source of this,
that seems to be like that's the problem's clearly like this phoenix is the source of this, that seems to be like
that's the problem to solve
is this phoenix. Is there a path that we can
see like this phoenix is going or is it just rampant
mayhem? Oh, like they went
down and scorched a lane on
their journey away. Sure, but there were paw prints.
That's what led me to believe, like
into the city. Let me clarify, it's not
Karkasuk itself that's on fire. It seems
like it's something else,
but it is in the direction
that the paw prints
are heading off
of the pyramid towards.
Okay, so there's a direction
we could go.
Southwest.
How big are these paw prints?
Big.
So they're the Phoenix paw prints.
Probably.
Okay.
Mateed heads down to the throne.
Belga follows.
Barney will follow.
Chip looks in the dust
to see if there's any weapons
because I'm not too happy
about my Kopesh or the Desert Tripest.
Why aren't you happy with that Kopesh?
It's just, you know, I feel like I could do something better, you know?
In my days in Dagger, I had some pretty powerful and cool weapons.
Where'd they go?
Yeah, why don't you own them anymore?
I put them away in a chest and buried them under cement
in the basement of my house.
With your gold coins and...
Yes, to never come back to that life again,
now that I had my wife, Carol.
The entire corpse and everything it was holding
all transformed into sand.
Okay, pocket sand.
You can take some mummy pocket sand if you want.
I'm going to take some pocket sand.
Okay.
I'm going to put it in my fanny pack.
So I know Elga said she was heading downstairs.
Mateed, did you say you were also following?
Matide went first. Oh, Matide went first.
And Barney came.
She's playing in the sand.
I'm done making sandcastles with the corpse
so I'm going to come with you.
Yeah, you head downstairs to
the throne room and
I guess I
don't want to make any presumptions. You're going to check where
the mummy said.
Behind where the golden throne once stood is to check where the mummy said. Yes.
Behind where the golden throne once stood is indeed, like the mummy said, there is a mountain of treasure there.
Quite a bit of coin.
700 copper pieces, 600 silver pieces, 900 gold pieces, and 100 platinum pieces.
Oh, my goodness.
All right.
So 25 platinum each, eh?
Yep.
Okay.
That's easy.
Well, are you with us too, Chip?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Tell us the mind's eye.
What would happen if I wasn't?
Oh, you know, I was thinking we would just put it in our pockets to bring up to you at
some point, you know, if it's fair and square.
Oh, yeah?
Better split three ways than four.
175 copper, 150 silver, 225 gold, 25 platinum.
And 25 pee-pees?
Yep.
Is that what it is?
25 platinum.
What was that?
Pee-pee.
One more time.
What was that gold?
Gold was 225 each.
225 each.
That's a good amount.
D&D Beyond, they're pee-pees.
They are.
That's what the acronym is.
They are.
He's correct.
But why is that the only one you say?
Why don't you say GP or SP?
Well, because I knew what gold pieces were.
I didn't know what, I had never heard of PP's before
What does those stand for?
Gold piece
No no the ones you keep saying
Platinum piece
There you go
Besides all of the coin
There are also a couple of gems
There's two black pearls
And sixteen bloodstones
This is a payday, guys.
I'm not the person to be doing this, but I
constantly do investigations. Can I
look to see if there's anything
special about these stones?
Those are very, like, unique
descriptions of, like, weird gems.
Like, black pearls and bloodstones.
Yeah. You don't have, like,
a jeweler's loop or anything, right? Just, like, a casual
with your naked bird eyes looking at it.
Birds like shiny things.
They use it.
They gathered them all for their nest.
So I just have a really big interest in these things.
And people they like.
Wink.
You go and make an investigation check, Mateed.
Okay.
I say I shouldn't do investigation checks,
but I'm the one who constantly says it because I'm plus zero on investigation.
But I don't know if any of us are super-
Well, y'all are a brainy party. 18!
18. Yay! Don't need no
modifiers. They just seem
to be particularly well-cut, particularly
well-developed pearls and stones.
You would estimate each of the black
pearls is worth about 500 gold each,
and there's two of them. Golly!
And there's 16 bloodstones, which are worth about
50 gold pieces each. I'd say
four bloodstones for each.
Well, what's the math?
We have to split these up by stones, not by gold, I assume.
Sure.
You can also pay each other gold if you want to, like, even it out.
I'll hold on to one of the dark stones.
Black pearls?
Black pearls or bloodstones.
Maybe we do a championship bracket.
It's you two are going to rock, paper, scissors
and me and Barney rock, paper, scissors
and the winner of each gets double. How about we have
an arm wrestle competition?
Oh yeah? Yeah. Oh yeah?
Not in real life here in the podcast room.
But in the game.
I like that that was
in Elka's voice. Elka said
not here in the podcast room.
Not here in the podcast room.
Elka just broke the fourth wall. Let's do it. Oh my god, Elka's voice. Elka said not here in the podcast room. Elka just broke the
fourth wall. Let's do it.
Oh my god, Elka's in the room.
Is she in the room with you now?
Who do you want to
arm wrestle? I want one of
the black stones. I do as well.
Do you want to arm wrestle for it?
We could do a roll off. The one that was
500 gold? Yeah. Mati just
fine not taking the black pearl. We could do a roll off. The one that was 500 gold? Yeah. Matide is fine not taking the black
pearls.
I would take one,
but if you really want it, you can have it.
Don't do this to me, Barney.
How about this? I just take all of them.
It seems
that the
tiefling and the
not vampire,
they want the black pearls.
Bonnie, you seem to be a bit complacent
about it, so why don't I give
my share of the black pearl to Elga
and Bonnie, you give your share of the black pearl to Chip.
If you need a loan down
the road, 250 gold pieces
on the house. I am nervous
that this could be the curse of the black
pearl.
You can take this black pearl.
Okay.
Was that just inventory black pearl?
Yeah.
It's worth 500 gold pieces.
And there's also 16 bloodstones that are worth about 50 gold pieces each.
So four of those to each of us.
Four each.
Wow.
Wait, should we not divide a few more bloodstones to those without black pearls?
They're 50 each.
There's 16.
16.
You guys need to take eight. 16. You guys each take eight.
You know what?
Like I said,
Mati does not really care that much about,
again, earthly things.
Irbani, you can have my bloodstones.
So you get eight bloodstones.
Oh my goodness.
Hey, don't blow those all in one place.
Oh my goodness.
Who gets the other eight?
Then it's four and four between Chip and Elga.
Four bloodstones.
This is, I think, thank you so much. Your bardy seems super grateful. Bardy, you can. Four bloodstones. Thank you so much.
Barney seems super grateful.
Barney, you can add those bloodstones to your kidney stones.
Which are their own kind of bloodstone.
In addition, there are also two spell scrolls and three potions.
Goodness gracious.
Let me see.
Can Mateed tell us what they are?
With my 18 investigation check? Since they are the one looking? I'll just give it to you since you this? Can Mateed tell us what they are? With my 18 investigation check?
Since they are the one looking?
I'll just give it to you since you rolled well, Mateed.
The two spell scrolls, one is of guidance and the other one is alarm.
I don't know what alarm is.
What does alarm do?
It's what you would expect.
You set an alarm against unwanted intrusion, like a door, a window, an area.
Oh, I do know that.
Yeah.
And as long as the spell's is active whenever a creature touches or enters
the area yeah it sets off the alarm yeah oh that's a good distraction it's something like you set
and then go away and if something like procs it you will be notified yeah that's cool i i only
have interest in a potion if i could just have a potion that's all what are the potions potions
are healing there's three of them oh nice i think you three should take it. Elgar has probably the highest HP out of all of us.
Sure, that sounds fine.
Humble brag.
Real talk, Mateed is very squishy.
Yeah, no, Mateed should take some then.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mateed, since you're, you know, kind of,
you investigated these things well,
why don't you make me a perception check as well?
I would gladly do that.
Who's taking the spell scrolls?
The spell scrolls?
Yeah, who do we rely on to use those?
Probably Barney for...
I have zero intelligence.
If it's intelligence, if it's wisdom, I have five.
Do we know what the spell scrolls...
What was the scroll check?
It was like a D4.
So we kind of homebrewed some rules as far as using scrolls
just so that it would be easier and more accessible.
It's basically, you're going to roll a check.
It's like a DC 10 plus spell level and you get a modifier based on.
You should absolutely take this one.
Yeah, my spell level is pretty high.
I think Barney should take them.
No offense, you all are a party of dum-dums.
I think you'll all have more or less the same chance of making these checks.
No, that's season one.
Gum, gum.
You're confusing us.
I rolled a 10 of perception.
You hear what you think might be like mumbling or a shuffling noise coming from beyond the
mound of treasure, like somewhere along the back wall.
Is it like shrouded in like darkness or something?
Or is it coming from behind something?
You don't see the source of it.
It's just you can hear some kind of noise coming from back there.
Matide meanders that direction.
Someone's doing the Cupid shuffle and they don't know the words.
The what? I don't know what the Cupid shuffleuffle and they don't know the words. The what?
I don't know what the Cupid Shuffle is.
I don't know what the Cupid Shuffle is either.
How do you guys not know what the Cupid Shuffle is?
What's the Cupid Shuffle?
It's played five times at every wedding in the last 12, 15 years.
Is that the one that was...
Take it back now, y'all.
I'm also being sarcastic.
I have no idea what the Cupid Shuffle is.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Are you talking about the Casper Slide? Wait, is that the... Hold on. Cupid Shuffle is. Are you talking about the Casper Slide?
Wait, is that the...
Hold on.
Cupid Shuffle is a song by Cupid from his 2007...
I think you're thinking of the Casper Slide, the one that's...
Does anybody in the room know what a Cupid Shuffle is?
You're like, we're being made to feel like we're dumb for not knowing this.
I don't think there's any such thing as a Cupid Shuffle.
Are you talking about the chicken dance?
Oh, oh.
To the left, to the left.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But that's a different
song than the one you were saying okay they don't know that i don't know the lyrics i am also
mumbling and maybe you're maybe it's chip who knows how much coffee have you had today blaine
i gotta poop real bad mateed meanders that direction and says nothing says to the right! To the right! Oh my god.
Yeah, make me an investigation.
Check, Matide.
A different song.
17.
It sounds like whatever the noise is, it's coming
from the wall itself, and as you're
investigating it, you find what
appears to be a latch
that kind of embedded in the wall.
Oh, it's Wallfriend.
There wasn't a latch when it was Wallfriend. Yeah, but maybe this is their exit.
We weren't supposed to learn this
if you listen to
our bonus show, Second Wind.
How do you listen to that?
You listen to that by joining us
as a first member, which is our patronage
model for this show. Where?
Roosterteeth.com. You can go there
and become a first member
and you can have access to our bonus show where we
talk about the show and we talk about answering questions
and we go over things like that. It's really fun.
And in one of the episodes, Gus,
it was in that episode, right, where Gus was like,
honestly, the wall was nothing.
The wall that talked,
like he... It didn't even really talk.
It just kind of mumbled. Yeah, and it was just like
you read the description for Micah's module,
and it was just one of those things where it was like,
I think Micah writes in things just to bait us sometimes.
And guess what?
It worked.
I don't believe you.
Do you want to roll a check on that?
Let's go back.
That wall was something.
Also want to point out that Second Wind is a video show.
Oh yeah, video.
If you want to be able
to see our beautiful,
lovely faces
after we've just recorded
D&D for two hours,
you get to see it there.
I find it weird
that people might not know
what we look like
from Richie's content
because they found us
through Sneaky Dragon.
So that would be
like a face reveal
and they're like,
that's what Barney sounds like.
Is that why you have
a mustache today?
What do you mean?
He's becoming Chip.
I finally grew it back after shaving it off doing drag at RTX.
I'm happy it's back.
I like your mustache.
I don't.
I like your mustache.
So there is a latch hidden in the wall.
Okay, so my investigation check revealed that.
Correct.
You know what?
C'est la vie.
I pull the latch.
You pull the latch and it clicks and opens a secret door embedded in the wall.
We'll find our friend.
Whole friend.
After you, Barney.
Okay.
You step in, Barney?
Yes, I step in.
Are you here?
What's your constitution?
No, no.
Yes.
Good.
It's 15.
Okay.
Not bad.
Yeah.
You step inside the secret door, and it's a triangular-shaped tomb that smells of saffron,
cinnamon, honey, and myrrh.
Oh.
The center of the room contains three golden sarcophagi.
Jesus was here.
And at the far end of the room is another door.
And the three kings.
Can I knock on the sarcophagi?
Sarcophagi.
And be like, Mr. Guy?
No, it's sarcophagus.
Oh, my God.
And the teed is watching as our cleric knocks on the sarcophagi
and yelling at the people inside of it.
Mr. Guy?
Which one do you want to knock on?
There's one in the left, one in the middle, one on the right.
I got it in the middle.
It's probably closest.
Sure.
Give us a taste of what that knock sounds like.
Ah. You hear a... of what that knock sounds like. Ah.
You hear a...
Oh! Do we really? Oh, does he really?
Yes. What does Barney do?
Oh, I guess we should leave.
Do you need help?
Is anybody there?
That's a yes. Let's hope I'm not.
Said something about the cupid shuffle.
He's telling you to move the lid of it.
To the right.
Can I look if there's a latch?
Yeah, make an investigation check.
I also realized in me writing notes from this moment,
I have no idea how to spell sarcophagus.
S-A-R-C-O-P-H-A-G-U-S.
I know how to spell it because of Pokemon.
Not even close.
Nine.
It seems like there is a latch to open it.
However, it does not seem to be unlocked.
Could I come in to try?
Yeah, sure.
It seems to be stuck.
Do I have to also roll a constitution?
No, no.
I'm just messing with Barney.
You come in and you see Barney trying to open up this middle sarcophagus,
but he seems to be struggling with it.
Could I try to, like,
strengthen my way through opening it?
Yeah.
Can I strengthen my way?
I don't know how to, like,
strengthen my way downtown.
Walk to the right, to the right.
Make an athletics check
and see if you can force it open.
Okay.
That's always smart,
to force open sarcophagus
and not worry about any curses or anything.
I know.
He did the knock.
Yeah, we tried.
Yeah.
Two somethings in a chain. Someone trapped inside. He did the knock. Yeah, we tried. Yeah. Two somethings in the shade.
Someone trapped inside.
I rolled a 22.
Okay, yeah.
With Barney staring, probably wide-eyed and slack-jawed,
Elga just lifts and rips open the sarcophagus.
Can we say canonically it was one-handed?
Sure, one-handed.
Yeah.
With one hand behind her back, Elga opens up the sarcophagus.
As she's holding Barney.
Yeah, no, like staring at Barney as she did,
not even looking at the sarcophagus,
just pulling it up.
Hep hep.
You open it up and then very, you know,
quickly the alchemist shoots up.
Sitting upright.
It's the alchemist!
Oh, thank you.
I feared I was going to meet my end in that sarcophagus.
How do you spell that?
E-N-D.
Quick.
Dear friends, are these your friends?
Barney points to the other two sarcophaguses.
No, I don't believe so.
I need to find my family.
I think they're nearby.
Oh, me too.
After the incident on the train, I was taken here as a prisoner by Eddie.
He wanted to know everything he could about the other clan leaders of Grotel and about you four.
Eddie brought you here?
Yes.
Yeah, he's the Hadid.
Oh, right.
He tortured me for some time, but I gave him nothing.
That is, until he brought my family here and threatened their lives as leverage.
And then what'd you give him?
Does that include Francesca?
Yes.
And his son named...
Henry.
Eddie now has my notebook,
which carries all of my notes about my clients
and, unfortunately, some information about you four.
Probably got some pretty embarrassing
journal entries in there too, huh?
But yes, Francesca and Henry are nearby.
I believe they're hidden in the next room over.
What sort of notes were you taking of us?
Oh, just observations.
Like what? What'd you write about me, Doc?
Looking for Carol.
True.
Stuff to help me remember.
Things that are important about you.
Is that just a weird practice to do, writing about the people you meet?
I have a lot on my mind.
I want to make sure I keep everything
straight. Dear diary,
today I met a bird ghost
very good at baking.
Love, the Alkabot.
Is that how you
write your diaries where you
end it with love?
It's all about self-love.
It's good. It's very good.
If my journal was here, I could show you.
Fawny West dentures, Elga's teddy bears named Boris.
How did you know?
I never told a soul this.
That's what the questions have been at the beginning of the episode the entire time.
It's just an alchemist giving information.
That's pretty good.
Wait, so do we hear anything in these other two Sargophaguses?
Guy.
You're guys.
Make an investigation check.
All right.
That's a 13.
How do you check?
Do you do like a knock or are you just like listening or what's your approach here? Michael, what's it called?
The two something haircut barber?
Shaving a haircut.
Shaving a haircut.
Two bits.
And then I wait.
On which one do you do that on?
One on the left.
Okay.
You knock on the left one and you do not hear any reply.
They've suffocated!
I want to open it.
You throw open the sarcophagus and inside you see a well-preserved carcassuk body dressed in fine linens and its eyes adorned with golden coins.
Can I put the lid back on?
I'm so sorry to wake you.
Go back to bed.
Mateed turns and just sees Chip, like, give a little kiss to the mummy and then puts the lid back on.
Can we go to the third one?
Take it back, y'all.
Barney, you knock on the sarcophagus on the right and you hear no reply.
Well, I try and open, just in case. Yeah, you knock on the sarcophagus on the right and you hear no reply. Well, I try and open just in case.
Yeah, you throw it open.
This one is not locked.
It opens very easily.
And much like the other one that Chip opened, there is a well-preserved carcass of body.
Oh, my goodness.
With gold coins on the ice.
Bye-bye.
I close it.
There was a door at the end of this room?
Well, yeah, the alchemist did say that his family might be in the room next door.
Correct.
And yes, there is a door leading out as well.
The other direction from where you all entered.
Do you think your family might be in that direction?
And Elga points to that door.
Most likely, yes.
Okay, well, I think we all know what to do.
And we all walk the opposite direction of that door.
Could Elga help the alchemist out of the
sarcophagus? Yes, thank you, Elga, for being
so nice. You're welcome.
That came from a real place from Gus
as an old guy who needs help.
You're almost as old
as me.
Is he in rough shape, or is he okay?
He looks like he's been worked over a little bit.
He did say he was tortured.
Yeah.
Elga helps him out.
Okay.
Thank you, Elga.
She lifts him up from under the armpits.
A piece.
And Mati wanders towards that other door.
Yeah, you walk up to it.
It's closed.
I presume you try to open it.
Yes.
Yeah, you open it and it's unlocked.
It opens easily.
And beyond the back door is another triangular room mirroring the tomb.
But this one contains shelves of organs,
embalming fluids, and medical tools.
In the back is a chest
and another door, and on the
floor are two mummified bodies wrapped
tightly in linen strips. On the floor?
Yes. Oh no. Oh no.
Can I, uh, I'm
gonna distract the alchemist
while you guys check this by doing I'll go kind of
Do that, you know.
That's actually how Chip puts Barney to bed at night as he does the dance for him.
I imagine it's like someone's grandfather's like, oh, now show me that dance, you know. Hello.
Hello, what are you doing that day?
You're so talented.
Down, down, do your dance, do your dance.
Elga goes over to one of the rapt.
Matide heads to the other one.
One of them appears to be a medium-sized humanoid,
and the other one's rather small.
As you approach them and begin touching them,
they begin wriggling.
Oh.
Is that you, Henry?
I don't know if you remember me from the college,
but I was talking to you through the door
just like I am talking to you through your cloth right now.
Yes, it's me, Henry.
It's just Elga two inches from this rabbit.
Wait, wait.
Did we ever get confirmation that Henry is in fact a little boy, not a man?
We should not question whether people are really young when they're small or if it's an illusion.
I want to do something cool,
but I hope it turns out cool and not
bad. Mateed is going to
attack the linens
with their claws and do a
really cool way of letting them free by
getting them out
without hurting them.
So you're going to attack the linen,
but not the people in the
linen. Yes.
Make an attack roll.
Oh, no. If you crit on this, then you might kill them.
Before you roll, who are you trying to do this on?
Francesca, I presume, because Delgado was talking to Henry.
Sure.
Assuming Francesca is in the other one.
19.
You very deftly and carefully strike at the linens, wrapping up Francesca and free her.
As she comes free from the linens, she takes a deep breath and looks at you and says,
Where's Henry?
I think he's right over here. Let me take off his ribbons too.
I don't know why I said ribbons.
And then could Elgo just like unwrap him?
Yeah, you unwrap him and you're greeted by Henry, you know, the small boy wearing his usual red bow tie.
He does, however, look a little paler than the last time you saw him.
It looks like he maybe doesn't feel well. I tell the alchemist, seeing that his family's out, and I say,
okay, you can go in there. I'm glad to say you do not have to now walk in by yourself.
Were you looking up the lyrics? He's reading his laptop. Your family's alive. Was it the kind of
thing where you had him turn his back to the room and you're like dancing in the other direction so
he's not looking over there and you can
see what's going on? I assumed that they were
dead. I assumed the worst, but I'm glad they're not. So
go see your family. That's the way to
distract somebody from the death of their family. Dancing.
Haha, look at me. Henry,
you do not look so good. Are you okay?
Did someone feed you something you didn't like?
Oh, my
memory's
kind of fuzzy.
Make a perception check, Elga.
Check his neck for bites.
No.
Fifteen.
As he's talking, you see that he has like an unusual cut across his chest.
Oh, no.
With green veins now sprawling from the wound up his torso and neck.
Who did this to you?
I don't remember.
The last thing I remember is going on a trip and
being in bed at
Hotel Fantoum
in Paris. I
heard laughter and then
felt this
pain in my chest.
What kind of laughter?
Scary laughter.
Can you give us a taste of it?
Like, what did it sound like?
It hurts.
That's not a good laugh.
You know who else used to laugh?
He smacks Chip over the head for being rude to this dying child.
You know who else used to laugh like that?
Eddie.
This dying child.
You know who else used to laugh like that?
Oh.
Eddie.
Can I do like a medicine check or something to see if there's anything I can do to help?
What organs might be missing?
Organs might be, yeah.
Yeah, you can make a medicine check.
While you're doing that, the alchemist, of course, also comes in, you know, having been freed by Chip.
And, you know, rushes in and is also investigating Henry as well. I rolled an 11.
All his organs seem to be there. You're not rushes in. He's also investigating Henry as well. Doing the can opener. I rolled an 11. All his organs seem to be there.
You're not missing any organs.
That tracks, because I think he's just looking on the outside of someone's body to determine what organs they're missing.
So he was at a hotel.
Yes, at Hotel Fantum.
Fantum.
In Parish.
In Parish.
In Parish.
He's taking a trip.
And he heard a laughter and then had the scar all of a sudden.
He felt pain in his chest.
I was traveling with Freak from clan to clan to learn the customs of each land in Groteth and pick up on some languages.
It was for school, you know, educational.
Was it on like a magic school bus?
And was DeFrizz there?
School bus?
Never mind, never mind.
You said in this room there was also, what,
a chest in the back and another door?
Correct.
Could I walk over and check on the chest?
Yeah, I presume that means you open it?
I check it for traps.
Okay, yeah, make an investigation check.
That's a four, my dude.
Nope, no traps. Need some help over there, Mateed? I think I have to commit Okay, yeah, make an investigation check. That's a four, my dude. Nope, no traps.
Need some help over there, Mateed.
I think I have to commit to this because I did the investigation and I didn't find any traps, so I'm going to open the chest.
The chest is unlocked and springs open.
Inside, you see what appears to be some school books, a couple of letters, and some alchemical supplies.
Is this any of your stuff?
I say to the alchemist and the family.
Francesca runs over.
Yes.
She gets the books for Henry, picks up the letters,
and then delivers the alchemical supplies to the alchemist.
Thank you so much.
The alchemist begins preparing a concoction for Henry,
mixing together various alchemical ingredients.
Is the alchemist's journal in that box?
No.
I think Eddie probably has it, or Huddy has it.
Well, all right, let's go. I don Eddie probably has it, or Hadi has it. Well, alright,
let's go.
I don't know, we have anything else here? I was trying to get people an opportunity to do something else. I go check the door.
Well, I want to walk up on the
alchemist talking to his wife and be like,
what's this feel like?
To be reunited
with your wife. How's this
going for you guys?
You guys look so lovely together.
I'm so sad you got separated.
That must have been real tough.
Two alchemists from Francesca.
So you walk towards the back door there, Matid?
Yeah, there's another door.
The alchemist and his family join you
and begin walking towards that door as well.
The alchemist, you know, super thankful.
It's so great to be reunited with my family.
Good, good.
Best feeling in the world, absolutely.
Oh yeah, sure.
We need to get Henry back to the lab in Atro City
to figure out a cure for his ailment.
I will warn Weezer of Eddie's plans for the clan leaders
and help clear your name once and for all.
You all need to stay on the trail of Eddie
and find out what his endgame is.
He seemed particularly interested in Glurb
out in the Southwest.
Francesca takes a piece of parchment
and hands it to you, Matit,
I guess since you were walking out first.
Here, take this.
This magical piece of parchment
will help you stay in contact with Robert.
What is it?
You can write on it,
and the alchemist will receive it.
Cool.
Is there like a word limit on it?
You can write a short letter.
It must be 25 words or
less.
A sending stone.
When you're done
writing your letter,
put it in the envelope
here and the message
will automatically be
sent.
Is this a one-time use
thing?
Is it like once per
long rest?
The magic needs time
to reset once you use
it.
Metagame, take a short
rest.
Short rest.
Yeah, short or long
rest.
These phones are getting
shorter and shorter,
smaller and thinner and thinner. Let's go. Yeah, short or long wrist. These phones are getting shorter and shorter, smaller and thinner and thinner.
Let's go.
Guys, I think Chip is a, he maybe have the same ailment as Henry.
Chip, are you okay?
Mateed looks for something to put between Chip's teeth because he's clearly half-naked.
Can Elga smack him around just a little bit?
Elga can do whatever she wants.
Elga slaps Chip around a little bit and say, put it together, man, okay?
The item name for the parchment is cartas de haya,
a.k.a. yonder letters.
I could put it in my pack of, like, at the fanny pack if you want.
Would you like to see the cartas de haya?
I just, you know, I got carrying capacity.
What the heck?
I want to hear you say the name of the item.
Let me type real quick.
Paper is heavy.
It is.
Ah, si, cartas de haya.
Ah, yeah, very good.
Oui. Si, very good. Oui.
Si, oui.
As Francesca is handing that over, I guess, to you, Chip, you're the one taking it?
Sure.
The alchemist says, oh, one final thing.
Mm-hmm.
You haven't happened to have seen my cane, have you?
Oh, yes, I have.
It's right here.
It's quite handy.
Can I keep it or borrow it?
Can I keep your cane?
Well, I do your cane? Well,
I do need it.
Well,
do you want my walker instead?
Oh,
that's a fair trade.
That looks pretty good.
Is that your walker's
your weapon?
Your walker's your weapon,
isn't it?
Barney,
why don't you give
Elk a misty's cane?
He's been through so much.
He was asleep
in the sarcophagus
for so long
and he was probably
so lonely and hungry
and was thinking about
eating and drinking.
Yeah,
I apologize for being
rude. Here's your cane. So the Estebans
head out the back door and I presume
Mati, you said you were also heading towards the back door.
So that's what this door is. It is an exit
door. It seems so, yes. Okay.
Do you think we should go back upstairs and try to
follow where those tracks lead? I think this
is the way to get out of the pyramid to follow
those tracks. Yeah, the tracks seem to go to the end
of the pyramid and then stop.
It goes to the edge and then no more.
Okay.
And connecting the dots, this phoenix did have wings.
Right, okay.
So it probably flew, landed.
Yeah, and that's why I was asking
if there's like a path of flame.
Gotcha.
Because you said things are on fire.
So is there like a trajectory?
Yeah, you could get there,
but it doesn't seem like there are things on fire on the way.
It just seems like something in the distance is on fire.
Then I think we have a thing to do.
We must go find this phoenix.
Felicitations, my foul-smelling friends.
I often get asked, what's the best way to support Tales from the Stinky Dragon?
So to help explain, I brought my good friend, John, along to chat with me about it.
Yeah, so the best way you can support us is by one.
I mean,
obviously just being yourself.
That's what that would support me is just knowing that you're being your true
self.
Me too.
And knowing that will help us.
But beyond that,
it's by becoming a first member on roosterteeth.com,
which is essentially our patron model for people who want to support the show

which we then can turn the most value possible into even more stinky content.

out of it too, right?

not listening to ads.
Maybe you could make your own dice
for your own Dungeons & Dragons campaign.
Your hobby could be that you join us
on our official Discord,
which is only for our first members
on our Rooster Teeth Discord,
where we're posting exclusive content.
Today that we're recording this,
I posted some behind the scenes photos
from our Stinky Dragon Adventures production
that just went into production this week.
Well, you know, it's,
man, you set me up for the perfect segue there, John.
On top of that bonus stuff,
you also get access to Second Wind,
which is our bonus show for Tales from the Stinky Dragon.
It's pronounced Second Wind.
Second Wind.
Yeah.
Where, you know, we do a dive into that week's episode.
We talk about things that happened,
what's going on,
you know, maybe avenues
that were left unexplored,
where the party is,
what the plans are,
what you all messed up.
Sometimes either myself or Michael
will be there to help give more information.
I've never messed up on this show
before in my life.
Everything has been strategically planned.
Sure.
We'll find out the rationale behind, John,
when you listen to Second Huynh

I presume everyone else
also leaves along with Mati?
Yes.
Bye-bye.
I look back at the Elk
and it's reuniting
with his family
and then I... I miss my wife, Carol! All-bye. I look back at the alchemist reuniting with his family and then I...
I miss my wife, Carol!
Alright, so you all pass through the door
and descend a stairway that zigs and zags
for a while until you start to hear the
rushing of water. You reach the bottom
of the stairs and you find yourself back outside
in the morning sun. You look to your right
and spot the Esteban family riding off
on camels into a sea of sand.
Okay, now I sigh.
Now Matide sighs as well.
Before you is the Cajarian Canal,
which seems to snake off to the southwest into a larger river.
Docked in the river is a small steamboat with the name
SS Better Prize inscribed on the hull.
SS Better Prize? Yeah. the hull. SS Better Prize?
Yeah.
Blurble, gerbil.
Oh!
Ka-dunk, ka-dunk, ka-dunk.
Out from the boat, you see an oozy humanoid
wearing a yellow uniform with shoulder fringes.
Surprisingly, he seems to have a peg leg,
and scuttling behind him is a tiny, colorful splotch of goo
that croaks happily as it approaches.
I'm Captain Kerg of the SS
Metaprise. Jesus Christ.
And this
this is my
second in command,
Spork.
He points down at the splotch.
You four look like you may be in need of
transportation down
a river.
I have a
sixth sense of these things.
That's how he talks.
It's dramatic talking.
Do you think we'll get William Shatner to do this?
Yeah, we're going to.
Let's pause down real quick.
William Shatner actually canonically hates Gus.
Yeah.
He blocked me on Twitter.
He blocked him on Twitter.
Did you figure out why?
Yeah.
It's a long story.
I can get into it some other time.
It wasn't my fault.
I can provide passage for 10 silver each.
Okay.
I don't think, I think we can find another way.
Anyways, nice to meet you.
Hold on.
Now, before you go, this is no ordinary steamboat.
Uh-huh.
We've explored the many frontiers of Grotef on my five-year journey sailing.
And in that time, I have collected rare curios and learned cultural crafting techniques for purchase or trade on board.
Well, beam me up.
That sounds like some fun.
Oh, he's a shop.
Shopping montage.
May the force be with you.
Mateed grabs Elga and they both
fly off together down the canal.
May the odds be ever in your favor.
Come aboard Explorers
We shall boldly
Go
Down river to my hometown
Of Glurb
It should be
Lovely
This time of year
Can I give you
How much is a tin silver in copper 100 Here's 100 copper lovely this time of year. Can I give you a...
How much is a tin silver in copper?
A hundred?
A hundred.
Here's a hundred copper.
I will give that as well.
I will give it up.
We just gave a buttload of pennies.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I give him ten silver.
Thank you.
I mean, it all shakes out in the end.
You all make your way onto the SS Better Prize
and hear steam blow from the stacks like whistling chimneys.
The stir wheel comes to life and begins paddling water, propelling the ship downriver.
Spud will get us to my hometown of Glob faster than you can say.
Fascinating.
Fascinating.
In the meantime. we're there yeah i interest you all in
perusing some of my curios for sale or trade i love cheerios i also might be able to offer upgrades to existing items.
Come with me upstairs.
Let's get comfortable.
I'm waiting for him to say one more phrase.
He turns around and walks.
He begins walking up the stairs to the second level.
Now I follow.
So this guy is an ooze, I imagine.
Make me a wisdom check, Elka.
All right.
He's an ooze and he's got a peg leg.
That's interesting.
It is actually weird.
Ten.
You know, having lived in Grotef your whole life,
you know that Kerg, and actually he said it,
is a Glurbian.
So yeah, he is an ooze type creature.
And is Spork as well.
Spork is some kind of toad.
Oh, like a sentient toad because it can drive.
I also, I was writing these down quickly when you were saying them,
and I know that you made a joke about like something that sounded like spock.
Spork.
But I know it was spork now, but when I first wrote it down, I wrote splock.
Because I was like, I think that was what he said.
Good enough.
That's what happens when you just drop a bunch of jam on the floor.
And he was a...
Some kind of...
Glarb...
Glarb...
Globian?
Glurbian.
Glurbian.
Glurbian.
It's the blurble gerble.
It's the introduction of these people.
And he...
And Spork was a...
Spork is a tar toad, specifically.
Tar?
Yeah.
Like, he's made a tar?
Yeah, kind of.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I guess we all head to the Curios.
Kirk leads the way up to the boiler deck, which is the second story of the ship.
Double doors lead into a steamy shop filled with weapons, ammunition, and magical baubles.
Behind a railing is a blazing forge connected to the exterior stacks.
And, you know, as he mentioned, he can also, if you want, perform upgrades to some items if you're curious about that.
Interesting.
Does he want to get a sense of what the items are first?
He probably has a lot.
Is there like a list we could look through somewhere?
Oh, yeah.
Or like what's the easiest way to do this, I guess?
You look in the case and in the display with all the different items that are available there.
And you see various baubles and magic items.
You see emblems, amulets, horns, a cloak, a cup, medals, sling bullets, and dragon hide belt.
Could Algo look at the cloak?
Yeah.
To you, young one, I have special items that may interest you.
Okay.
Do the rest of the Glarbs talk like you?
Well, Captain, I would love to see your items.
Our first four-hour episode.
Kirk pulls out two items specifically and places them in front of you, Elka.
The first one.
Sippy cup of satiation.
I somehow feel targeted. You look like a kid. Sippy cup of satiation. I somehow feel targeted.
You look like a kid.
Sippy cup of satiation.
I'll read this DM voice.
You already heard the word.
I sure did.
This bloodstained sippy cup is the perfect vessel for vampiric imbibation.
Pour fresh blood into this cup and sip, sip, sip away, regaining 4d4 plus 4 hit points.
Once the sippy cup has restored hit points, it can't do so again until the next midnight.
How much do you need to fill it?
What is the ounces or whatever measurement they use here?
However much available.
Okay.
No.
Minimum required.
I shall take it.
I don't even need to know what the other item is.
I already know I'm buying this one.
Add to cart.
Two hundred and fifty gold.
Okay.
That's an expensive cup.
It sure is.
Keep in mind that we have things to trade.
Blood agates and all that stuff.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Nope.
Blood.
Stones.
Stones.
Also, metal of the horizon back
metal of the horizon back when you would be hit by an attack you can use your reaction to increase
your armor class by five until the start of your next turn including against the triggering attack
you must be wearing the metal and be able to see the creature that made the triggering attack to
use it once used it can't be used again and the metal becomes non-magical. So it's a one-time use.
Correct.
Period.
Okay.
How much is this one?
75 gold.
Okay.
Well, do you also,
I know you're selling these things,
but do you also buy things from people?
Yes, of course.
Okay.
Could I sell him my bloodstone and black pearl?
So it'd be 550?
No, it'd be, well, I have four Bloodstones.
Oh, you have four Bloodstones.
So 700.
Let me sell him my Black Pearl.
You said it was 250 and 70?
250 and 75, that'd be 325 total.
Yeah.
I see you also have a barely used greataxe.
Barely used? Great axe. Barely used?
Perhaps it needs an upgrade.
Oh, that is a great idea.
I thought you were going to take it from me and then we would have words.
What can you do to it?
He can enchant it to increase your bonus to attack and damage with this weapon to a plus two.
And whenever you critically hit a creature,
the steel of this axe turns bright red for a moment
and you regain a number of hit points equal to your constitution modifier plus three.
Ooh, that's vampiric.
Cool, yeah.
And how much will that cost?
Very rare materials to make this axe.
Seven hundred. Seven hundred? Okay, hun okay actually you know that's pretty doable
now that we have these stones we could sell do we know if like the he's talking like him too
the bloodstones or the whatever pearl black do they have any utility outside of just selling oh like are they material components or something else? Not really. I mean, obviously later on there are some spells
that are like requires a gemstone worth
500 gold or requires
a gemstone worth 50 gold. Like in that sense,
yes, but not specifically for anything. Is it 700?
Ain't no magic in Elga's future.
So it'd be 1,025?
Was that?
For all three? All three? Correct.
Okay, so I'll give him all my bloodstones
and the black pearl, which would be a total of 700.
Okay.
And then an extra 325 of my own gold.
Good doing business with you.
So you can add sippy cup of satiation, metal of the horizon back.
And if you look, your new axe should be called great Axe of Gaining. Helga's got gains.
Okay, pleasure doing
business with you.
You shake his hand, you just stick it into the sludge.
Anybody else?
Sure.
Wish to trade.
Yeah, who wants to go?
I guess Barney said sure.
You're welcome. I will say that because I have the pearl that we're probably going to split the costs on,
both of you guys will have money owed to you.
I don't need any money.
You don't even know what he has.
It's okay.
I'll be okay.
No, no, no.
I insist.
They eat first.
I have everything I need.
I have the cat.
I have my muffins that I can throw.
You got a best friend.
He's going to get me. Where is my best friend? He's on the ship. It's my muffins that I can throw. You got a best friend pointing at me.
Where is my best friend here on the ship?
It's Curd.
Captain Curd.
No, we know it would be Spork.
Let me go first.
Let me see what he has and then how much I have remaining.
That way, if you need a loan, I can help you.
Hey, ho.
Let's go.
Very well met.
What's the Star Trek line?
Peace.
Peace. Peace.
Peace.
Be with you.
No one help them.
No one help them.
Live long and prosper.
Live long and prosper.
Yeah, that's it.
You guys have to take back your nerd cards.
Come on.
They're Star Wars boys.
I'm a Star Wars man.
You can tell the guy who wrote this, though,
was raised in a Star Trek family.
Oh, how rude.
Cutting in front of your friend.
No, you see, like, we got a money situation
where I'm going to lend him money,
so I need to see, like, how much I can give him
so if we can clear up my...
It makes sense. We're good friends.
I'm a good guy.
Hi, Chip Hater. Chip Hater, nice to meet you.
Ah, Blurble Gerbil to you.
Yeah, yes, Blurble Gerbil.
For a fine tiefling like you.
He's going to find me.
Two items.
Okay.
Horn of Silent Alarm and Cloak of Displacement. Oh, a cloak. What do those do? of silent alarm and cloak of displacement.
Oh, a cloak. What do those do?
Mateed whispers to Chip,
you need to curtsy as you say that
as well. Oh, I blurble, garble,
and I curtsy at the lowest I can
possibly curtsy. As close to the ground
as you can get. I fan out the ends
of my shuddy. You see, this is
a shuddy. It's a shirt and a hoodie.
You know, whenever I put it on,
I say shoo-dee wear it, shoo-dee not.
Clever.
Thank you.
The horn of silent alarm has four charges.
When you use an action to blow it,
one creature of your choice can hear the horns blare,
provided the creature's within 600 feet and not deafened.
No other creature hears the sound coming from the horn.
That regains 1d4 expended charges at dawn.
So, uh,
Captain
Kirk.
Captain Kirk, will you?
What did you call me? Captain Kirk.
Nope. Kirk.
Captain Kirk. Nope. Kirk.
Captain Kirk. First try. Yes.
Captain Kirk. First try.
What's a situation where I can use something like this? When stealth is required. First try. Yes, Captain Kirk, first try. What's a situation where you can use something like this?
When stealth is required.
It is, most of the time.
To alert your friends.
Uh-huh.
Silently.
Okay.
Blaine's not impressed by this item.
It's fine.
What's the cloak do?
Metagame-wise, cloak of displacement.
When 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. I want that. If you take damage,
the property ceases to function until the start
of your next turn. This property is suppressed
when you're incapacitated, restrained, or otherwise
unable to move. Say I do this
and I try to disengage and go into stealth. Does that
impact that ability? No, no, no. I think it's
more like, think of the What's-His-Face from Apex Legends.
He sends out hollows of himself, and so you don't know which one to attack.
I do like that character.
Yeah.
Okay.
It's a very rare item.
700 gold.
How about we talk about what I could get as an upgrade,
and then we, you know, see if we could get, like,
a buy one, get one situation and try to bring you down, you know?
How about the arm blade of blurbing?
I'm listening.
Chip has now moved an inch from Captain Kirk.
It's an upgrade to an arm blade that coats the
blade in acrid slime.
You gain a plus one bonus to attack rolls you make
with this weapon and it deals an extra 1d4
acid damage. That's good.
In addition, when you're the target of a ranged
weapon attack, you can use your reaction
to attempt to absorb the projectile's damage
into the weapon. The projectile
can be any ranged ammunition but does not include
AoE. You make a melee attack roll with the weapon. If your attack roll is equal be any range ammunition but does not include AOE.
You make a melee attack roll with the weapon.
If your attack roll
is equal to or greater
than the attack roll
made against you,
you absorb the projectile.
Just swallow an arrow
that comes at me.
Yeah, basically you like
engulf like whatever
the arrow or whatever
in like the acid
from the blade
and it dissolves.
And you can use that feature
twice per long rest.
That's cool.
It's like a laser
going at a lightsaber.
Oh.
My favorite.
Star Trek.
Set your phasers to
fun. Okay.
Alright, Captain Girk.
Nope. Nope.
Try again.
Captain Girk.
No.
Spell that for me.
He's now just yelling it in hopes that it sounds better.
Kirk. Kirk. Kirk. Kirk. Kirk. Captain Kirk.
Yay!
Let's talk about how much we could bundle these together in doing some trades.
Together.
Mm-hmm.
Two items.
Yeah.
11.
Oh.
Hundred.
Okay.
All right, well.
You're rich. You're a rich boy.
Okay, I have a bloodstone and a black pearl together.
That is 700 gold.
So there's that.
And then.
Need 400.
Didn't you get a bunch of coin as well?
Yeah.
But it's supposed to be silver.
So, okay.
I think I have 130.
So that'd be.
Okay.
All right.
Blaine is sweating.
I'm wearing a sweater.
I have 1,300 silver, so that's 130 gold.
Yes.
Are you writing all this down?
This is going to be impossible to keep track of in your head.
No, no, no.
I got it all up here.
So I have 130 gold plus the 700 from the bloodstone combined with the black pearl.
So that's 830.
And then I have gold, which would...
Oh, I got the platinum as well. Remember how we talked about how
D&D is basically improv and math?
Yes. This is...
Heavily math portion.
Then I take... So he pays you
the 400 gold somehow. Somehow.
End of statement. Right.
And then I got 170 gold. So I'm gonna give you...
How about 900?
Oh, he's haggling.
Oh.
Do you have suspenders for that?
Make a persuasion check.
You'll never meet a more persuasive person than I.
26.
How do you have a plus 10 on that?
Because I'm a charismatic guy.
I got the reasons.
It's the rogue.
Haven't you been playing Baldur's Gate?
That's true.
1,000. That's a Rogue. Haven't you been playing Baldur's Gate? That's true. 1,000.
That's a deal.
I rolled a 26.
And it went down 100.
He came down on the price.
What was it originally?
1,100.
Oh, I forgot about that.
I was looking for 1,000.
Mel Norton back to work.
950.
Make a persuasion roll.
Oh, gosh.
22.
975.
Fine. 25. That, gosh. 22. 975.
Fine.
25.
That's fine.
Jesus.
Now I got to do all the math all over.
Okay.
All right.
Here's a black pearl.
Here's a bloodstone.
And money.
And money.
There you go.
Scouts honor.
You're going to do that math right.
100%. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Matee turns and notices that Barney has fallen asleep and stirs him away.
Oh, are we there?
This is your time to show up. Hi, I'm Barney has fallen asleep and stirs him away. Oh, are we there? This is your time to shop.
Hi, I'm Barney.
You look, you look, I love your ship.
I'm so glad it ended with ship.
Thank you.
It can do warp eight.
Wow. For a priest slash cleric as yourself.
Two special items.
Guardian emblem and amulet of the devout.
And what do those do?
The guardian emblem is the symbol of a deity or spiritual tradition.
As an action, you can attach the emblem to a suit of armor or shield or remove it.
It has three charges.
When you aura a creature you see within 30 feet of you suffers a critical hit while you're wearing the armor or wielding the shield with the emblem.
You can use your reaction to expend one charge to turn the critical hit into a normal hit instead.
That's big.
It regains all expended charges daily at dawn.
Basically, it undoes three crits per long rest.
And that extends to people around him?
Within 30 feet.
Nice.
That's a good, that's like an aura.
Because I was doing math, I missed all that.
I'm very excited for you to bring that out in combat
and be like, where'd you get that?
Amulet of the Devout.
It's an amulet that bears a symbol of a deity
inlaid with precious stones or metals.
When you wear the holy symbol,
you gain a bonus to spell attack rolls
and the saving throw DCs of your spells.
The bonus is determined by
the amulet's rarity.
In this case, it's a plus two.
When you wear the amulet, you can use your channel divinity
feature without expending one of the feature's uses.
Once the property is used, it can't
be used again until the next dawn.
That's good, too.
Did Barney just say yo?
No, he said yo.
He said nido He said yo.
Okay.
All I heard was you just saying yo.
Yo.
I can also tinker with your watch to make it more accurate.
And what does that do?
Pocket watch.
Predictability.
This is an upgrade made to an existing pocket watch, adding a third hand to the clock.
When you make an attack roll while bearing the pocket watch, you can forego rolling a D20 to get a 10 on the die.
This feature can be used twice per long rest.
So it's like, that's probably good if you have a high modifier.
You're not going to impact anything else with the watch?
You're just going to add the other hand?
Correcto mundo.
Hmm. Okay.
And how much is all
that is? All three? Yeah, I guess individually.
Pocket watch
only
75 gold.
Guardian emblem
200 gold.
Suspense. Amulet of the devour
500 gold
775
Okay
Do you think you could do me a kindness
And go anywhere closer to 500
He's an old man
Do me a kindness
How could you say no to that
Come on, Glerk
Look at him
Make a persuasion
check. Wrong again.
Clerk?
I mean, he's working at a store.
That's what I mean.
A 13. That's actually
the one red flag of Chip
is that he's mean to his
serving staff.
Oh no.
So it's a 13 on the persuasion.
725.
That is a kindness.
Okay.
Yeah, I'll figure out the gold and stuff.
Do you need more?
I don't know.
No, I'll be okay.
I guess I'll just get rid of some of my stuff, and we don't need to go through it.
Sure.
Why not?
Scout's honor, as long as you add it up right.
I don't want to go back in and double check everyone's math.
It's just Barney.
I'll get you on the back end.
I'm going for it.
I'm going for it.
I'm going for it, man, please.
If you buy me a cheeseburger today.
Oh, gosh.
And remember that character's name?
Hamburglar.
No.
Yes, that's correct.
The Hamburglar.
Was that not the Hamburglar? No, it wasn't.
It was the Popeye's character.
It's a character from Popeye.
Wimpy? Wimpy. Yeah.
I'm old. As
for Matide
and
Jacques
walloping sling
bullets dragone hide pelt, and possibly an upgrade to your cook's utensils to make them a spear.
Oh, that's pretty cheap.
With a bunch of duct tape.
Can you upgrade his cat?
So the walloping sling bullets, it's ammunition
for sling, obviously. Which sling?
Da-da-da-da.
Any creature hit by
the bullet must succeed on a DC-10
saving throw or be knocked pro. Oh.
I just realized that that's a sling.
I thought that was like a thing you were casting all along.
No, sling. Huh. Like good old
David. And then the Dragonhide belt.
It's a finely detailed belt made of Dragonhide.
While wearing it, you gain a bonus to the saving throw DCs of your key features.
In addition, you can use an action to regain key points equal to a roll of your martial arts die.
You can't use this action again until next dog.
And it would give you a bonus of plus two to your saving throw DCs.
That's very good.
And then what can you do to my cooking utensils? Be very careful.
They can be upgraded, arcanely
assembled into a single spear
that sorts the wheat from the chaff
in battle. Which utensil is at the
tip of the spear? Is it the whisk?
It's most likely a spoon.
So imagine trying to like cook with
all of your utensils melted into one thing.
One giant one.
Oh my rolling pins, four, eight feet long.
Just holding a giant spear over my head, stirring with it.
With this spear, you would gain plus two bonus
to attack rolls and damage.
With the spear, I do thee wed.
You can use an action to speak a command word
and stick or throw the spear into the ground.
Gold-hued arcane spikes resembling wheat briefly shoot up from the ground in a 15-foot radius around the spear.
All creatures of your choice have to make a dexterity saving throw.
Or get a gluten allergy.
On a fail save, they take 3d6 piercing damage.
On a successful save, they take half, and you can use it twice per long rest.
Evil wheat.
Alternatively, as part of an attack or bonus action,
you can call back the spear to your open
hand from up to 100 feet away.
The spear shimmers, dissipates into
chaff, and then reappears in your hand.
That's very cool. You should buy that.
I say buy that.
Should I buy that? Yeah, we will.
Do you need to borrow anything since
you let us have those things?
I do not know. What would be
the sum of all three of these?
1,100
gold.
What you got? I got 750.
Okay. Don't forget you have platinum.
Oh, no, that's total. I have
650 monies and I still have
a gemstone that's worth 100.
350 short. Okay. I don't know
if I said it. By the way, it's the
Spear of the Superior Baker is the name of the spear. Oh, you did not say that. I'll give you 120 gold. Okay. That short. Okay. I don't know if I said it. By the way, it's the Spear of the Superior Baker is the name of the spear.
Oh, you did not say that.
I'll give you 120 gold.
Okay.
That you still need.
I'll be at $7.50, so $8.70.
And so I need another $2.30.
I mean, I could cover him with my platinum piece, but if anybody else wants to chip in.
I could have that too.
It's okay.
Actually, if...
I could give you some.
You sure?
Yeah.
Are you sure you want to give me your money?
Yes.
You know, you let me have those stones, and that was really gracious of you.
Yeah, but I am fine not getting one of these.
It's not a big deal to me.
No, we are a team, and if you...
High water raises all the ship ties.
Anyways, I will give you...
Is 100 gold good for you?
150?
That would be plenty.
Thank you very much.
I'll give Matit 150 gold.
Okay. So then that brings you down to 120 that you, 150? That would be plenty. Thank you very much. I'll give Matit 150 gold. Okay.
So then that brings you down to 120 that you need left?
So I have, what is it, 1,020?
And you need...
Then you just need 1,000...
1,100.
So you still need 80.
I have...
This is what I have, and I show Kirk how much I have.
Would this be enough maybe for today?
They're a very friendly bird.
Go ahead and make a persuasion check.
I would gladly do that. Could Elga help make a persuasion check. I will gladly do that.
Could Elga help make a persuasion check by
doing puppy dog eyes? Sure, you can
roll to assist. Please.
Mathis here is such a good person
and I think that
you should give them eggs. Oh gosh.
I rolled a 10. I rolled a 3.
Great. Sorry, I wasn't
looking at the right person.
You were looking at a spork.
I was looking at a sp Spork I can give you
A frequent buyer discount
Ah, since all my friends have bought dolls your other wares
Yes
This will suffice
Okay, thank you very much
I appreciate that
Gurg, you're a good dude
Blob.
Kirk.
Blarg.
Blarg.
Kirk.
Ding, ding, ding, ding.
We got the question right.
Outside, you hear the clanging of a roof bell.
Captain Kirk turns to all with wrinkled ooze face.
That can't be good.
Uh-oh.
He rushes out the double doors and you immediately hear the flapping of wings and unusual quacking
fill in the air.
We're under attack by Flocka's Gooselings.
Everyone go ahead and roll initiative.
Oh, no.
They were my favorite 80s band too.
Gooselings.
The Flocka Seagulls.
Seven.
I think I have to explain it.
Fifteen.
Thirteen.
Twelve.
This is a very side question.
Do I still have those rags that we bought, I assume, from Carcassie?
Sure, why not?
I don't think you ever do anything to get rid of them.
Okay.
So you all run outside.
In the air, you see jelly-like birds flapping around, attacking the ship.
So based on initiative, it looks like ship's going first, then Mateed and Barney.
There's a handful of these jelly-like birds flapping around.
So they're up in the air.
Yes.
Okay.
Is there any sails or I guess this is a steam-powered ship.
But is there any like crow's nest or anything like that?
There's the steam stack, but it's hot.
I am a tiefling after all, you know.
So if I climb the stair, theoretically, if I climb the steam stack,
would it bring me up to the level with the birds?
I mean, they're pretty low.
They're like swooping, you know, at person level.
So then if I climb the steam stack, I'd be above the birds.
Yes.
I like that.
Can I do that in my combat, in my movement?
Sure.
And just for clarification, I think tiefling just gives you resistance to fire damage.
I'm pretty sure he's immune to it.
We've kind of said that a few times now.
It's hot.
I like the hot. I don't know that a steam stack is fire damage. Well'm pretty sure he's immune to it. We've kind of said that a few times now. It's hot. I like the hot.
I don't know that a steam stack is fire damage.
Wait, well, what's at the bottom? What's causing
the steam? Fire.
Yeah, you're not at the bottom, dude.
Yeah, I know, but I'm at the top, so it's like
it's even weaker than the fire.
Alright, let's do it. We'll figure out the damage as we go.
No. I can always tell who is frustrated
with Blaine when he calls him dude.
That's what I know. I've got to drop it him dude Yeah, yeah, go for it. Yeah, dude go for it
What could happen bad dude? I want to do it cuz I want to be the petulant child do it what?
Can I perceive it's gonna hurt me
Well, you like to put your hand on it. Yeah, make a
It's going to hurt me.
You like to put your hand on it?
Yeah.
Make a... Let's call it a...
Make a constitution save with advantage.
19.
You think you can handle it?
Okay.
All right.
Well, I'm going to climb this steam stack to get on top of these birds.
Be right back, gang.
I just want to tell the audience that Blaine is playing with his back to Gus and can't
see Gus's reactions, his face.
Oh, no.
It's probably for the best.
All right. I climb on top of the steam stack.
Okay, yeah, you shimmy your way up to the top of the stack.
Where's he going?
You wouldn't be able to move your full movement range.
Let's say you get about 15, 20 feet.
Oh, the steam feels great on my skin.
What a great, great use of my time.
And then I want to jump on top of one of the birds
and on the way down, splash at it
with my arm blade of blurring, blurbling.
Blurbling. Yeah. Blurbling.
Blurbling.
Yeah.
Blurbling.
Given to you by Captain... Kirk.
Kirk.
Yeah, go ahead and make your attack roll.
Okay, 21.
Oh, yeah, that easily hits.
You come down, land on one of the gooselings.
Aha!
And then I do five points of arm blade damage.
Okay. And then in addition to the of Arbent Blade damage. Okay.
And then in addition to the slashing damage that I just did, I think I also get the acid damage.
Yes.
Which is one to four acid, so I'm gonna roll for that. That is a four!
Nine total.
Nine total.
Yeah, you jump down onto this gooseling and slice it into two little piles of ooze that fall to the deck. Cool.
And then after that, I'm going to use my cunning action to slink away.
Okay.
Is that it for you?
That's it for me.
All right.
Matide, then Barney.
Do we have a number of how many of these ooze slinks?
It looks like at this point, there's probably, if you had to guess,
five or six, somewhere around there.
Okay.
Matide attunes their spear by having Jacques kiss it. Aw.
And then now it's ours.
Does the spear of the superior baker become attuned
by having biscuits made on it? Yeah.
Ha ha! That
woke up Chris. Ha ha!
I'm gonna go ahead and actually,
what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take the bullets of walloping and I'm going to go ahead and actually, what I'm going to do is I'm going to take the bullets of walloping
and I'm going to put them inside the crusty muffins
because I still want to throw muffins.
Okay, so I'm bonusing my muffins.
You're buffing your muffins.
I'm buffing my muffins.
I'm buffing my muffins.
Inspiration dice, guys.
That was a good one.
And I want to use my sling of sandstorms.
And I want to attack one Sling of Sandstorms. And I want to attack one of these Gooselings.
I am not a slimy bird of the ocean.
Well, in your heart you are.
Okay, apparently.
I roll for attack.
19.
Oh, yeah, that hits.
19.
And then I do the attack roll.
That's seven damage.
And then...
No need to roll for the walloping bullets because the gooseling does go down,
unmoving in a pile of hoodies.
And then Jock pounces on it to make sure it's dead.
Okay.
And then I want to follow that up.
I'm going to use a ki point and do, since I use flurry of blows,
and I'm going to take two unarmed strikes
as a bonus action towards the closest gooseling as well.
Ooh, okay.
That's a 12.
That hits.
Okay.
With eight damage.
Yeah, you punch right through it and you explode it.
You kick right through it and explode it.
These hands are meant for baking.
And that's just what they'll do.
Canonically, is that what it's for?
Yeah. Is that what it's for? Yeah
Is that what it is?
Yeah
The feet are for the killings
The hands are for the kneading
I do it again
Alright
I'll say a different one
That one's a nine
That actually does not hit
Okay
Then I miss on that one
Is that it for Mateed?
Yeah
I'm done
Okay
Barney you're up
How many are left
And what area are they around?
Let's say there's roughly three
There's probably two around you and one
around Ilka. Is there a way I can get all three within
a 15 foot radius of me?
Probably not. You get two of them.
Okay, I'll do that. I'll cast
Spirit Guardians. Which does?
It calls forth spirits to protect you. They fit around
you a distance of 15 feet for the duration.
When you cast a spell, you can designate any number
of creatures you can see to be unaffected by it.
I'm going to choose all of the friendly passengers aboard, including my party.
And who are the two crew people?
Spork and Blurg.
Oh, he almost got it.
You didn't even know.
The look on your face.
The look on your face.
Captain Kurg.
Blaine made a face when he said the name of just like, is that right?
Spork and Kurg.
There you go.
I knew that too.
Hey Blaine,
never change.
Perfect the way you are.
I promise to you.
So they're unaffected.
An affected creature's speed is halved in the area
and when the creature enters the area the first time or starts
its turn there, it must make a wisdom saving throw. If it
fails, then it takes 3d8
radiant damage.
Basically you've got
like some spirits
around you
that'll attack
if someone comes
in range of them.
Or starts their turn.
Barney's got a gang.
Yeah, of spirits.
Priests.
Yeah.
So I do that.
So on the start of their turn
they need to make
a wisdom saving throw.
Yeah.
Don't worry about
the ones here.
And I point to the two
that are in the in my area
and then your spell save dc is 17 it looks like too i'll just do that i'll call that and i'm done
okay as luck would have it those two by you are the ones that act next so they need to both make
wisdom saving throws dc 17 their wisdom save is 3, so they both need a 20 if they want to make this.
You got this, guys. First one,
14. Second one,
4. I'm going to use that inspiration die
John gave me and re-roll that.
That's what it's there for. 17.
Didn't make it. You're close.
Alright, so they both fail, so they both take
3d8 radiant damage. You want to go ahead
and roll that? Oh my god.
That's so much damage. Did you put your sunblock on? radiant damage. You want to go ahead and roll that? Oh my God. That's so much damage.
3d8, wow.
Did you put your sunblock on?
14 damage.
I have resistance to UV radiation.
So yeah, the two closest to you
explode into a blinding pillars of radiant damage
and just disappear altogether.
And the boat is on fire.
Neat.
So that was their turn, dying.
Elga, it's your turn and there's only one
goozling left and it's by you.
Use your two actions on it!
At the same time!
Is it close enough to use
a melee attack to me? Yeah. Okay, I'm gonna try to use
my new Great Axe of Gaining
to swipe at it. I think you're gonna need both your actions
against this thing. They have very high HP.
Slashing damage.
Great acts of gaining
is a 16.
That hits,
believe it or not.
Okay.
And then doing my damage on it,
that is a eight.
You slash at it
and cut it in half
and it falls to the ground
unmoving.
Ugh, gross.
What were you going to do
with your other action?
Uh,
I
say
and that's all, folks.
Classic Elga. Classic. what's the role for that Gus
performance
you successfully dispatch
all of the gooselings so you all get
inspiration dice or
five temporary hit points
where Captain Kirk tells them that gooselings
are actually an endangered species and we
just decimated half the population
I was so confused at first too because just like instinctively them that Gooselings are actually an endangered species and we just decimated half the population left in this land.
I was so confused at first too because just like instinctively I equipped all the things
I just bought before including the medal of Horizonback but that adds five to my armor
class and I was like how did my AC become 20 and I was like oh I should probably take
that off until I'm actually using it.
That's funny.
As the crescent sun reaches high noon,
you notice a shift in scenery
from the surrounding shores and beyond.
What was once a desolate desert scape
is now a countryside of grassy knolls and mushroom fields.
All the while, the column of black smoke
has only grown larger and now fills the foreground.
It takes you a moment to fully appreciate what you see.
It appears to be a town, but it's slowly moving.
Here at the edge of the river,
you can make out a massive dribbling trail of slime
leading up to a mountain-sized slug
with neighborhoods of homes, businesses,
and even roads constructed on its back.
It would all be mesmerizing, if not for one detail.
It's all on fire.
No!
Wait, so it's on a giant moving slug?
Yeah, on a mountain-sized slug.
It slugs all the way down.
Everywhere I go, there's fire.
I'm a perpetual firefighter.
You have not done your duties.
We need to get in there and save those people.
And you are immune to that as well.
That's right.
Very good.
I don't mention that often, but I'm glad you picked up on that detail.
I think it's the most interesting thing about you.
Find out what the slug is all about on the next episode of Tales from the Stinky Dragon. Woo!
