Starting point is 00:00:00 Sam Spencer Radio, that zombie's got a pretty good charisma score. There's nothing sadder than a group of adults sitting around a table trying to re-kill some level 1 zombies, but that's exactly what we're doing here today. Welcome to episode 5 of D&D is for Nerds. I'm Jackson Bailey, playing Criff Pompom Criff. This is Ali Kathleen, playing Princess Ainsley Foggyfeather. And this is Joel Zammett, playing Leo Shadow, and of course, our illustrious DM Adam Cake Muscles. No, guys, no. Shut up. Previously
Starting point is 00:00:30 on D&D is for Nerds. I drank one of the floating potions. Shoof down the stairs. Check the traps down the stairs. You were going to be fighting chests today. This is what you get for using a cat as a decoy. If snakes could look like hamburgers, they would.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Guys have won one hell. Guess who speaks dragon? Jackson, quick, block of wood. Fire your bow at it, you idiot. Yeah, yeah, that one. I don't know how magic works. Me neither. He's casting Burning Hands.
Starting point is 00:00:56 Uh-oh, that's bad. I think I'm going to stab a wizard. I think. So whose turn was it? Oh, yes, yes, yes. The staggered crit. Griff, it is your turn. Can I throw my spear?
Starting point is 00:01:14 Drink a potion. You can. I'll drink a potion. That seems wise. Yeah, a muffled unconscious. You regain four. Just from the ground. No. No. You regain four. Just from the ground. Nah.
Starting point is 00:01:27 You regain four hit points. Yes! So, that would be your turn. And, Leo, you go down to negative two. Oh, you got a while. Hey, man, I've got like so many more turns. Maybe eight. Eight turns. I guess. Eight turns of life left. Some, man, I've got like so many more turns. Maybe eight. Eight turns.
Starting point is 00:01:45 I guess. Eight turns of life left. Some would say eight turns. That's so many. That's more than enough. We got this, guys. Me and Ali can take him out. Whatever, he's just an old man.
Starting point is 00:01:55 Let's do this. He doesn't have magic at all. I'm telling you, I'll block a wood on the head. Yeah, that'll be my finishing move, Mortal Kombat style. Yes. He casts another spell. Yes. Next.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Jackson, you recognize it as sleep. Oh, good night, everyone. No, you can't sleep. You can't sleep. Yes. Yes. You're not, Ainsley. Yeah, but he is.
Starting point is 00:02:19 I sure am. Can't I stabby stabby first? You've got this burning rage inside you to kill him. It's true. But the burning rage is being put out somewhat by this overwhelming urge to just lie down and go to sleep. Have a nap. You can gain some hit points.
Starting point is 00:02:33 That's all right. All right, yeah. After eight hours, you will. That's good. Ainsley, you fall asleep. Oh, boy. Just a little hold me. Wizard, e-wizard.
Starting point is 00:02:45 Fuck, what'm alive. And... Huck, huck, huck. Griff, it's your turn. At him? Your turn, Griff. He'll kill me. Huck a spear.
Starting point is 00:02:57 Hey, you hit him. Yeah. You spear him in the... Fuck, you spear him in the throat? Yes! It's like he's got an entire spear in his throat. Cast a fucking spell there!
Starting point is 00:03:09 I mean... He falls over and dies. Yeah! That was a really long death. Adam, first of all, we out of combat now? Can we do whatever? I cast Rouse. To wake me up. Motherfucking Rouse, wake up.
Starting point is 00:03:27 Does not wake people up from magical speed. Oh, no. Surely. I cast it anyway. Okay. So you cast Rouse, which is just him essentially like, hey, guys, guys, wake up. Wake up, guys.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Guys, wake up. Come on. Oh, my God. All right, I'll chuck a health potion in this bugger log. Okay. Down to three. You're on five hit points. Oh, happy days.
Starting point is 00:03:51 Can I just try and slap this one awake? I'll wake you up with just a hefty slap in the cheek. Love it. Let's do it. Yeah, Ainsley, you wake up as well. Super. Hey, guys, let's search this fat old wizard. He's not fat.
Starting point is 00:04:03 He was frail. Can I take a health potion? Do we have any left? We've got three left if you want to. I would take one. Thank you. Okay. Down to two.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Full hit points. So there was a bounty for this guy, wasn't there? Oh, my God, there was. Cool. I'm just going to decapitate him and just grab his head in my bag. Hang on. I want to search his pockets. Oh, you make a mess of it.
Starting point is 00:04:26 You get like a head. It might be recognisable, but it's like a mess. Sorry, we'll wash it. We'll clean it up. Whatever. Can I check his pockets? Yeah, sure. What are we going to find?
Starting point is 00:04:37 You leave the room. Marbles. Marbles and some peppermints. Like a solid old man that he is. Peppermints and a couple of pennies. You're like, oh, I feel bad. He was like a legit old man. And a newspaper clipping from the 70s.
Starting point is 00:04:54 Yes. You find 110 gold pieces. Yes! How rich do we want to be, guys? I'm going to spend it all on daggers. The rest of the stuff is just like old magical textbooks but most of them date back from like
Starting point is 00:05:09 a time when some people weren't allowed to vote So they're like out of date like if I went through and I tried to use them people would be like oh my god you idiot That's not the case anymore There's nothing else in his library There's maybe like a of books on demons.
Starting point is 00:05:26 You're not sure if they're worth anything. Anything useful. Take a book, why not? Nah, nah, hassle. Search his office, though. Yeah, search his office. Yeah, that's what I did. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 00:05:36 So what was our mission? What was the point of... Are we just sitting over the corpse and being like, what the fuck are we doing here, actually? We went to something about an alchemy something. What did that guy say that we bought his coat off? It was a good coat. So long ago.
Starting point is 00:05:52 Well, there's one more door. Maybe the answer's three. You open the last door? Check for traps. I like that. It's always like I go to open it and you're like, no, no, no, no, no. Check for traps.
Starting point is 00:06:04 I got this. You find the no no no no I got this You find the trap It's a tripwire It looks like it activates a pit trap You open the door and then you just fall down a pit trap Didn't he say something about a pit trap? We did get warned of that Didn't we buy a scroll off him?
Starting point is 00:06:19 Nope, I tried to steal it, I failed Well then we just won't go in that room I think there might be treasure this way, Ainsley. That's what we're here for. This is the point. Everybody back away. I'm going to hurl a book into it. Good plan. Open the door from afar. The book hits the door,
Starting point is 00:06:36 I guess. Open the door from afar. How? By throwing a book at it. A door open spell. Oh, that's right. You cast the spell, and the door opens, the trap gets set off, and there's just this little pit trap. It's open in front of the door. Can we jump it?
Starting point is 00:06:54 You can jump it, yeah. You can try. Do you guys want to risk it? Because I have two potions that are jump. Also, when did I land from floating out of curiosity? Or am I still floating? No, it ended when you got to the bottom of the stairs. Can I have a...
Starting point is 00:07:07 Before we do anything hasty, what's in the room? What's up here and look inside the room? It's completely pitch black. I'll chuck a sun rod down. Torch. Torch, guys. Lantern.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Torch. One person at a time. No, three of us at once. At the same time, we all bring out a light source So Jackson you throw your sun rod in Do you throw your torch in? No I hold it Your light cannot pierce the darkness
Starting point is 00:07:35 Oh fuck It's like it does not reveal anything of the room Jackson you believe it to be a magical darkness I believe it to be a magical darkness What are those potions we have? I have low light vision But that won't help Willip Jackson, you believe it to be a magical darkness. I believe it to be a magical darkness. What are those potions we have? I have low light vision, but that won't help, will it? No, it will not. That doesn't help you.
Starting point is 00:07:51 We got a potion of jump, two of them. We got a potion of endure elements. I'm going to chug one. Yeah, okay. Yeah, just chug a potion of endure elements. Can I see? No. Those don't work.
Starting point is 00:08:04 All right. It's not an element thing. Jackson, you make me angry. You have to be like, so mad. We've got hide from animals too. This is not an animal. We should have used that when we were running away from your cat so that it wouldn't be angry and it wouldn't come to save us.
Starting point is 00:08:19 The cat is still trapped as far as we know. We might have to use that. Three floaters. So we can each have one and just float down and then if there's anything on the ground we'll just chug along that. And that's it really. Except major armor but I don't know how that'll help us.
Starting point is 00:08:34 And two dead snakes. Give me them snakes. I give you the snakes. I fling the snakes into the room so it happens. Well they pass through the door into the room. You hear them hit the ground but you don't see anything. Let's just float through.
Starting point is 00:08:49 Let's just float through. Fuck it. Each chug a floating potion. Okay, you all drink a potion, and you just, like, float carefully into the room. Who's first? I'll go first. I'll be in the middle.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Okie dokie. Take up the rear, Leo. Done. So, Krim, you float through the room. As soon as you get in, you feel the tech. Okey-dokey. Take up the rear, Leo. Done. So, Chris, you float through the room. As soon as you get in, you feel the... We should hold each other. Holding hands? With rope.
Starting point is 00:09:13 Yeah. We can either do rope or we could just... Everyone holds hands or feet. Let's all hold feet. I mean... What? Chris is at the farm What is your plan?
Starting point is 00:09:28 Pardon Ainsley? I mean go on We're not fucking apes Wait wait wait Let's hear her out Like when you're parachuting And you're making a formation And I'll hold Chris' feet
Starting point is 00:09:43 And then Leo will hold my feet and we'll be in a fucking line are we like are we belly to the floor over and over is this i don't see why that's how that's better than a rope but sure i grab her feet okay okay hooray you create a bizarre conga line of floating fucking idiots and you enter the room. Fucking, you're the only one who can guide anyone, seeing as how you're the only one who has hands free at the moment. And our eyes are just dead on the floor.
Starting point is 00:10:19 That's all we can get. We're, like, coming up ahead. You see down into the pit trap, the bottom of it is spiked and you can see a skeleton down there. Then you get into the room. When you get in, the temperature drops immediately, maybe 10 degrees. That's when we should have used the
Starting point is 00:10:35 endure elements thing. I've still got it. It's comfortable, but you detect the drop. I build a campfire out of my flint and steel on top of my back. You probably shouldn't do that while you're floating. Okay, I will.
Starting point is 00:10:49 Just imagine you get a log, let go, and you're like... You're bumping around in this dark room. You start feeling out its dimensions. It feels like it could be a storeroom. You detect what are obviously chests and barrels. Okay. And then Kryff, you're
Starting point is 00:11:08 leading the way, right? Then your hand brushes over something wet. Ew, ew, ew, ew. Guys, guys. I try and scramble over them. Kryff climbs his way. Kryff, you accidentally push off. You're up against the
Starting point is 00:11:23 ceiling. Guys, help! I'm adrift! I'm gonna say, Leo, you bump into it as well It's like wet and hairy Oh, gross Yeah, Griff, you hear it like Do I know what this is? In the dark? No It's big, whatever it is
Starting point is 00:11:41 Just give it like a proper good feel Just like a proper good feel. Just like a blind person. You're like, what's going on here? Get slimy. Get slimed. Get slimy. And then hug it.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Can I use my sleight of hand? To pick its pocket? To perform a minor magic trick? To search, but stealthily. See what you do. You like search. It's not very stealthy, though. You're like just feeling around. Eventually you get to what is quite obviously a mouth.
Starting point is 00:12:13 And you can feel these rows of like fucking teeth on it. And it's got these like. It's got sharp teeth. It's got like tusks. And it could be a boar. And you like stick your finger into its nose. How did you do that? What does nose feel like?
Starting point is 00:12:31 It feels like it's never blown its nose. It's very mucusy. And then it swats you out of the fucking sky. Ow. Yeah, it hits you. It hits you hard. You like go sailing across the room. Should Ali roll to keep hold of his feet?
Starting point is 00:12:46 Oh, man. You take eight points. Oh, my God. Are you dead again, Zammett? He's on negative two. Zammett. Oh, my God. Zammett, you're just careening around.
Starting point is 00:12:56 Like, no one can see you, but you're just gracefully in, like, zero gravity floating around. By the way, it's notice. Leo? Hang on, wait. Okay. Ainsley, you heard that. You know what just happened.
Starting point is 00:13:12 Griff, you don't know what happened. What's going on, guys? What do we see? Guys? We'll play Marco Polo. Marco Polo. Polo? How faro. Polo. How far away from each other are we?
Starting point is 00:13:29 You guys need someone. You guys need a tank. We are very weak. Adam, I'd like to create a block of wood and just drop it in a hole. You can't create the block of wood on, like, not, you've got to create it, like, on the ground. You can't create it. I have to create it and pick it up They used to be in Dungeons and Dragons
Starting point is 00:13:49 That they didn't specify that So what people would do is I summon a whale And they're like well you're on land I summon it above the enemy Everybody get whales Good tactic Oh god
Starting point is 00:14:03 Can I swim down? You can push off. Yeah, you can, like, push off the ceiling. How can we see through magical darkness? Maybe if we... I have nothing. I'm just stretching this out. You have arcade knowledge?
Starting point is 00:14:22 Can I try and figure out how to get rid of darkness? Using my... Mind powers. My knowledge arcana. You know a light spell might be able to cancel the magical darkness? One of which I have. Dancing lights! That would be too weak.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Will it at least illuminate a little bit? No, it wouldn't illuminate anything. You need a more powerful light spell. Damn. No, it wouldn't eliminate anything. You need a more powerful light spell. Damn. I'm just like flicking through my character sheet trying to find something.
Starting point is 00:14:53 Hang on, wait. Highs or lows, Zamit? Highs. Highs? Okay. Zamit, you bump into Ainsley. Hey, I grab ya. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:03 You know what's, like, you kind of know, you're not 100%, like, you don't know exactly what happened, but you understand the basics. Like, you know he's been wounded pretty gravely. You think he might be out of it again. Okay. I'm gonna grab your leg. Yeah! No? Don't I have the potions?
Starting point is 00:15:20 He has all the potions. I just called for one. I'm gonna call potions! No. I'm gonna throw a potion. That's a bad idea. In the direction of the sound. Yes, yes. That's called for one. I'm going to call potions. I'm going to throw a poof. That's a bad idea. In the direction of the sound. Yes, yes. That's a bad idea. Don't do that.
Starting point is 00:15:30 It's happened. It's happened, Ali. Accept it. Ainsley, high or low? The most important decision you'll ever make. Come on. You got this, Ainsley. High.
Starting point is 00:15:44 See, I said both. You're going to trick Adam there? Like he's going to be like crafty. Oh, you win. You can't go wrong with L'Hai. High or low? High. High.
Starting point is 00:15:56 The potion, like you hear it bounce maybe five feet to your right. Oh, no. Hey, it didn't crash, though. It bounced. That's true. I'm going to swim down. I want to find the floor. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:08 Don't find the spikes. You have no sense of what was up or down. Jackson, you're completely lost. Help! I freak out. And yell a lot. Minor panic attack. Major panic attack, really.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Yeah. Yes, I freak out and yell and scream and propel myself around. Okay. I'm going to make whale noises in the background to keep them calm. And seagulls. Are you going to try and find that potion? At the same time, yes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:37 I'm just going to make noises of the sea. You find the potion. Yay! Is that an excited seagull? Yay! It's good to be me. You going to feed it to Zamit? Yeah, why?
Starting point is 00:16:49 Yeah, all right, why not? Fully healed. Yeah. Lucky son of a bitch. Are you calm now, Griff? No. No, not in the slightest. At about the same time you do that, the potion ends and you all hit the ground.
Starting point is 00:17:04 What about the spikes? Am I like, I'm just healing. Am I all right? We're about to find out. You tried to move away, so maybe. No, you didn't. No, Jackson, we know you sculled on. Jackson. Yeah?
Starting point is 00:17:15 Get sculled on. Oh, actually, wait. You have a chance to just try not to take damage. We're all sitting on the edge of our seats. That'd be so nice if I didn't just have my head caved in like a pancake. Ah, that's not a good chuckle. Nah, it's all right. Jackson, you take one point of damage.
Starting point is 00:17:35 Oh, that's okay. Guess who's on? Three. And Ainsley and Leo, you were both already near the ground. Yes. Search around. Try to avoid this hairy thing. See if there's like a switch.
Starting point is 00:17:52 So we can see. I'd like to see, Adam. This darkness is scary. I am blind. I do not like it. You can work out the basic layout of the room now. You know where the thing is. And you know, like, the boxes and crates are up the other side.
Starting point is 00:18:12 You can't find any, like... Check for traps. Maybe if the whole room is trapped. You can't find any traps. Maybe the whole room is a trap. I think maybe the catchphrase for this one is actually check for traps. I know. Can we go back out the same way we came? Just go home? You can see the exit.
Starting point is 00:18:31 Let's go to the exit, guys. Let's chuff on out and look at his spell books. Yeah. We'll chuff on out. Okay. Just jump the pit. Oh, hang on. Oh my god, that would be such a sad way to do it. Oh no. Oh boy. It's not a hard one, but yeah, no, you're...
Starting point is 00:18:49 Ainsley, you were so close. Like, Leo, you jump across and it's just not a thing for you. Like, you go a lot further even. Ainsley, you like jump and you're like, oh, oh, just teetering on the edge. This is upsetting. And then Kriff just hits you in behind and you both land in a heap. Oh, so we're not in the pit. No, you fall outside the pit.
Starting point is 00:19:10 That's all right. All right, so clearly there's something in there. Uh-huh. Not great. It hurt me, guys. I don't know. I think I lost taste buds. Oh, boy.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Your head is still fucking ringing. Go lick stuff to check. All right. Nothing. I, boy. Your head is still fucking ringing. All right. Nothing. I can't. Nothing. So there's just the one door to his office and then the other door. Yeah, the other room, the one that you were just in,
Starting point is 00:19:33 that storeroom filling room, unless you checked the boxes, you don't think there was anything else of note in that room? No, we wouldn't have checked the boxes. Having too much of a panic. It did just feel like a storeroom, though. You'd think there might have been just food. What was the thing, though? What if you just shoot a bow
Starting point is 00:19:54 and arrow in the office and have a look around and see if there's something going on like an illumination spell? Like the Illuminati? Spell. I'll give it a double check. Can we go back to the alchemy lab and make a potion of illumination?
Starting point is 00:20:11 Let's do that! You can try. I will give it my darndest. Give it a red hot go. Get ready to taste. Pass. How's Jiggle Lump doing? When you're going back up, Jiggle Lump is still stuck there. Give him a little pat on the head.
Starting point is 00:20:28 He's getting a little bit freer, though. The spell is slowly starting to end. He, like, kisses at you and, like, swipes as you pass. Oh, boy. When can you trade that in? I'm getting rid of him next time we stop at a town. This fat piece of shit. I mean, you know no
Starting point is 00:20:45 way of making a light spell, but it's possible that you could fuck up and create something. That's the aim. As they're like, you're a wizard, right? When you get back up to the alchemy lab, you see that guy from the tavern standing there. I knew he was dodgy.
Starting point is 00:21:04 Especially when I pinched his butt. And he's just... I see you have no coat. He's just inspecting the lab. Hey, buddy. We killed the wizard. Is that what we were here to do? I'm pretty sure you were just here for the money.
Starting point is 00:21:21 He's head. Is that... Well, you might... Whose head is that? He doesn't know. It's not quite clear. Well, have you done looting everything, he says? No, there's a storeroom that's really dark.
Starting point is 00:21:37 We can't get in. I'm just going to make a potion real quick. What? Do you know how to make an illumination potion? Of seeing light, of lightness. I don't think such a type of potion exists, he says. Just you wait. Adam, I'd like to just try.
Starting point is 00:21:55 You make this brown, goopy sludge that you're pretty sure is noxious and poisonous. Get the guy to drink it. We can try this. As you were doing that, he the guy to drink it. We can try this. As you were doing that, he just went down the stairs. We can throw that into the thing. As he's going down the stairs, you just hear him call up, Who's cat?
Starting point is 00:22:13 That's my one. Don't remove him. He's mad. You guys are dicks, he says. You just follow him a little bit. He goes down the stairs. He goes into Wondrin Norton's office. And he just has a little snoop around.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Particular reason you're following me? What are you doing here? I figured you guys would either kill Wondrin or die in the attempt. I showed him his head. Look, it's here. Well, like I said when I gave you... Yes, his dead body. Look, it's headless.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Why don't you... Who do you think it is? Why else would I... You said there was a bounty. Well, do you want to go claim that or what, he says? I just want to know what's going on in the other room. It's like a beast. There's something in there.
Starting point is 00:22:57 Like a boar? Do you describe it to him? Yeah. It's probably a demon or something, he says. We were so close to it. I don't think you want to tussle with something like that. I touched its mouth. Put your finger in its nose.
Starting point is 00:23:12 But it didn't attack us, so maybe it's good. Maybe it's chained up in there, he says. Maybe we could... I got nothing. What are you going to do? I don't want anything to do with a fucking demon, he says. I'm looking for some books and then I'm going to leave. Why?
Starting point is 00:23:27 We report this to the local demon police? You can report it to the town. You're a wizard. What do we do? I don't know. Don't look at me. You probably report it to the local lord. Guys, we've got to interrogate the brown coat guy.
Starting point is 00:23:39 He's not a brown coat guy. Well, he's wearing a brown coat. No, he's not. He took his coat and sold it. That was a big plot point. He's got a new coat. The new coat looks nice. What color is his coat? It's like a potion I made wearing a brown coat. No, he's not. We took his coat and sold it. That was a big plot point of the film. He's got a new coat. The new coat looks nice. What color is his coat?
Starting point is 00:23:46 It's like a potion I made for your new coat. Yeah. Right. Anyway, we've got to interrogate him like we're that five-year-old age where we just keep asking our parents, why? Yeah, have we just pester him enough? Okay, go. He takes a couple books out of the shelf.
Starting point is 00:23:58 What are you doing? Why are you taking all those books? What are you doing? Can you give us some light spells? Can you teach us how to see? Why did you make us do this? Do you know how to make a light spell? How did you get those some light spells? Can you teach us how to see? Why did you make us do this? Do you know how to make a light spell? How did you get those blueprints?
Starting point is 00:24:09 Where did you get your coat from? Why don't you like wandering Norton? Why did we kill him? He's leaving. No way. Are you guys following after him? Yes. Oh my god.
Starting point is 00:24:23 He goes back to the town. Do you hassle him the entire way back? Pick up the cat on the way. After maybe ten minutes, he breaks into a sprint. We run after him. Oh, no way. Come back. We're not done asking questions.
Starting point is 00:24:39 At least in town we can buy a light spell, guys. He leaves you guys in the fucking dust. What a mean son of a gun. So you guys are out in the forest now. You're on the path, though. You could go back to town, back to the town you came from, or you could go to a different town. The town you came from was Edgegate.
Starting point is 00:25:03 If you go back there, because Wondrin Norton was in that sort of territory, you might, if you could convince the town guard that you have his head, get a reward. Do you want to go back and search his body for anything else that I might identify him? We tried to look for mints. He mangled that fucking body. There is no recognizable parts.
Starting point is 00:25:22 It's hard to tell if it's a human at this point. We go back to that town and I want to collect my bounty. And also maybe get a light spell and change out that shit cat. Can I swap this? That's what I'll say to the familiar store.
Starting point is 00:25:44 No such store. Maybe report that demon thing, guys. I feel like we should do something about that.
