San Spence Radio, the book of erotic fantasy.
There's nothing sadder than a group of adults sitting around a table
hoping they just got a critical hit with their bow,
but that's exactly what we're doing today.
Welcome to episode 9 of D&D is for Nerds.
I'm Jackson Bailey, and I'll be playing Griffpum Pumgriff.
This is Ali Kathleen. She'll be playing Ainsley Foggyfeather.
Yay!
And Joel Zammett, who'll be playing Leo Shadow.
Woo!
And, of course, our illustrious and handsome DM, Adam Kumbubble.
This is not good for my self-esteem, guys.
Previously, shut up, on D&D is for Nerds.
Hit it with a loot.
The loot isn't really aerodynamic and made for combat,
so you're a bit...
Really?
Eh?
What?
I wanted to take my lock out, my amazing lock,
grab it with one fist and use it to smack some zombies.
I'm so mad at you, Jackson.
Pew, pew, pew, pew. Three zombies, that's easy.
That's a cakewalk. That's a walk in the cake.
Yeah, the zombies catch fire. Welcome to
death, Zambos. Yes, he's going
for critical something. I don't know which one's
which, though. I should have bought
a mace. Hurry up, we're going through the door.
I'm done. Do your job.
The cat is so mad with you. I hate you
with every fiber of my body, Jiggle Lump.
I think we're going to do the old sneaky tactic
of pile the dead bodies up against the door and nap.
Who are the best to fight the undead?
Us.
After a night of sorts, you wake up.
Nothing eventful has happened over the night and...
So no zombies just, like, shuffled down?
No, no zombies came down.
We are lucky.
It's like everyone in this universe is like,
you guys need an app?
Hey, cool.
Oh, they're sleeping little angels.
Let's leave them be.
I think we also killed most of the zombies.
Or it could have something to do with the fact that zombies aren't really like,
you know, don't really have much intelligence
and won't be like, let's check the perimeter.
Let's make sure there aren't any enemies in our back door.
I thought they might get homesick.
Oh, homesick for the grave.
Yeah, that's a thing.
That's a thing for creatures that have no intelligence.
That's what I hope to have when I die.
Do we get a health pack for sleeping?
Yeah, you regain.
Oh, hang on.
Let's find out how much we regain.
In the middle of the night, you rolled over and stabbed yourself.
You actually earned less health than you were when you woke up.
You rolled over, greased the floor and went flying down the corridor.
Nah, it's more like...
Wake up, four zombies.
Do you love to come along and be like, I'm so sick of your shit.
Joel, sorry, Leo and Ainsley, you both recover two hit points.
Griff, you recover four.
Because what happened
was during the night,
Leo,
who has the highest heal check of all
of you, decided to bandage
and patch all of your wounds.
And he did the best job on Griff,
who is the only person who gets extra hit points.
Cheers, mate. You're a champ.
So you've got the bodies heaped up against that door.
Should probably move them.
It's the only way forward.
Chuff on through.
Move them.
Open the door.
Chuff on down.
No, let's take a sneaky fucking glance.
All right.
Sneaky fucking glance.
Whoa, getting ahead of himself.
Is that you, Leo?
Yes. Getting wily, Zabit. Yeah, it's the sneakiest of sneaky fucking glance. Whoa, getting... Getting ahead of himself. Is that you, Leo? Yes.
Call me Wiley's Abbott.
Yeah, it's the sneakiest of sneaky fucking glances.
You open the door just a crack,
and through the door,
you can first off hear a faint, like,
like the zombie sound still.
Oh, man.
But it's not very strong or very, like, loud.
You think either it's very far away or there's not many of them.
This room seems small.
Through the little crack that you're looking through,
you can't see a lot, but you can see you make out a bed and a wardrobe.
It looks like this might be a bedroom.
Search the wardrobe for clothes to sell.
So you're going to open the door proper now?
Yes.
So I'm about to look like, oh, by the way, there's a zombie in there.
Okay, let's see if this
works.
That's all fine and good, Leo.
I like how you didn't even wait
for Leo to tell you
what was in the room.
Oh, yeah.
I assumed he was like,
is it bad?
It looks like a wardrobe.
Okay, we're good.
You just push the door open.
I may bring them zombi-
Good.
There could be jackets in there, guys.
You had me at wardrobe.
So Crim Puff has pushed past me and is now in the room.
Okay, so you open the door proper.
It's a very small room, maybe 10 feet by 10 feet.
Over one side, there's a bed, wardrobe, living amenities, that sort of stuff.
On the other side of the room, there's a writing desk, and amenities that sort of stuff on the other side of the room
there's a writing desk and in the middle of the room most importantly written on the ground is
this red arcane symbol it's glowing faintly and standing on the symbol is a undead a woman
uh she looks very recently animated her body is still mostly intact. She's wearing sort of nice-ish clothes,
and you can see this grey wound in the middle of her chest.
It looks like she was stabbed.
Oh, no.
Does she look like...
Kneeling in front of her, not done yet,
kneeling in front of her is a robed figure.
He, it's from the set of his shoulders,
either an orc or a he,
is facing away from you and just like kneeling in front of this figure.
You can, oh, hang on.
Guys, we walked in on their proposal.
This is a nice romantic moment.
We're ruining.
I know.
Leo and Ainsley, you can just faintly hear sobbing.
Oh, boy.
Oh, she said She said no.
Have they heard?
Her face is very expressionless and her eyes are a bit glassy.
Oh, God.
Do they look evil?
She looks like she definitely said no.
What do you mean do they look evil?
One of them is undead.
The other one's wearing a black robe
You make your own conclusions there
With my local knowledge
Do I know these people
Alright
You have never heard of these people
You've never heard of this cloak
Facing away
I can't stress enough
That you do not know what this person looks like
I see
Has he heard us come in?
Because I imagine Griff was not subtle.
Griff was not subtle, no.
But if this guy has noticed you coming in, he's not showing it.
Can I summon my familiar?
Does that just make Griff a jiggle-omp?
Jiggle-omp's always there.
Okay.
It doesn't, like, bring it into my hands.
I was going to throw it at him.
Just a hello?
With, like, this short, brutish voice,
you just hear the figure say, just leave.
Just leave me alone.
Are there any other doors?
No.
This looks like the last room.
But you're causing shit for the town.
Are you making the zombies?
Just.
Good point, because I just assumed.
I say sorry to the figure.
Sorry, I just assumed, but if you could answer my friend here.
Just leave.
So is that a yes?
May slowly rises, gets to his feet.
Is he an orc? He turns around and he's a human. He slowly rises, gets to his feet. Is he an orc?
He turns around and he's a human.
He looks Nordic.
He's got blonde, close-cropped hair.
And down one side of his face you can see this magical arcane mark
like someone's painted on his face in magic.
Knowledge arcana.
Hey, Kriff. You Arcana. Hey,
Kriff of Knowledge Arcana.
It's this guy.
Do I have any idea? Yeah, no, you actually you've heard of this before.
There's a... Tell us about it.
Like maybe months
north of here, there's this small little
island called Incarsary
and on this island is a magical
prison for magical
prisoners, essentially. This mark
indicates that he is an escaped
convict from that prison.
Oh god! Blockade!
You...
Yeah, you summon your
magical block of wood.
He was about to say
you can't do that.
He doesn't realise what's spoliocasting because he's never heard
of a block of wood summoning spell.
And so it kicks off.
We're in combat now.
Yes.
Oh, no.
There was no other way he could have caught him down.
He wanted us to go.
He's a convict.
You don't know.
He could have been wrongfully accused.
He could be the serious black of
people who get turned down for proposals. Let's not make
that assumption.
That's the kind of assumption that'll get you killed.
But this is going to get us killed
now. Not if I hurl a
block at his head. It's too big to
hurl. I should have greased the floor.
How many times have we done this?
I'm always imagining a block about the size of a shoebox.
It's not.
It's a block.
It's what we hide under.
You should have gone with the original plan, pick up the cat,
throw the cat.
You know that they get all angry and clawry.
You would have just clawed at his face and then we could have gone.
I also was considering using animate rope and tying him up.
I don't think there's any rope in the room
and I don't know if I have time to search for one.
Surely we have rope.
Oh, actually.
We all have rope.
We all have rope.
A 50 feet of silk rope.
If he's wearing a robe,
I'm assuming he's got a bit of rope around his waist.
Yes, Adam?
Sorry?
Does he have, like, rope around his waist tying his...
Damn.
Fuck.
Adam fucked us again. But we have rope guys
Why are you just assuming he has rope
I think we're getting a rope and a
dressing gown
Confused?
Ever so slightly
Common mistake
Oh boy
How big even
Griff, you're first
Grease the floor Is his block of wood still being summoned? Oh, boy. Oh, boy. How big even? Kriff, you're first.
Grease the floor?
Is his block of wood still being summoned?
Yeah, the block of wood is the five foot by five foot block of wood is still.
It's like right between Kriff and this guy.
Good.
Leo, I'm going to say you're like one step behind Kriff. And Ainsley, you're one step behind Leo. Yep. Good. Leo, I'm going to say you're like one step behind Kriff.
And Ainsley, you're one step behind Leo.
Yep.
Good.
So you're basically in a line with this block of wood in between you guys.
Can I animate rope? You can just see he's like a big guy.
You can just see his head over this.
Can I animate rope instead?
Sorry, well, you haven't really properly started your turn.
So I guess, yes, you can.
Yes, I'll take out my silk rope or hempen rope, whatever I've got.
What have I got?
Hempen?
Just to let you know, before you...
I don't know if I've just written it down next to the spell.
You can't use this to strangle him or bind him.
It's like very...
Like, the rope moves, but it's not very strong.
Like, you know, if it tries to get around his neck,
he can just be like, no.
Okay, I'll grease the floor.
Grease the floor. Okay, just on his
around him? Yeah. Okay. Hey, it worked
on the zombies, not really at all.
You cast
your second spell.
Is that both?
You see his head, like, disappear from the top
of the block.
And you hear, like, a thunk.
He hits the ground ground get down and stab
it's his turn
oh no
you see him pop around
from the side of the block
he's taken a couple steps back in a way
he's no longer on the greased floor
he casts a spell at you
goodbye guys
I think I'm about to become a toad forever.
Or a zombie.
Or a Sambo. Oh, no.
I don't want to become a zombie.
He hurls two bolts of magical
energy.
Yeah, you
take two damage from the
first one and four damage from the second
one. Oh, boy. Guess who's
on one?
I shouldn't run into fights.
No.
If you learn anything from this whole experience,
maybe when you see someone and you're not quite sure,
don't throw things.
Don't throw things at them.
Maybe just stop casting magic.
That would be nice.
Jackson, what's your hit point total?
14.
Sorry, what's your current hit hurdle? 14. Sorry, what's your current hit point?
Oh, one.
One.
Okay.
Yeah, so he threw those two magical bolts at you.
One hit you full on in the face, and one hit you in your belly.
Oh, God.
Your soft little belly.
Oh, no, my pudgy little wizard belly.
Ainsley?
It's going to be one of those days.
You got a fire through so many friends
and then there's even that block of wood
which is partially... And then the doorway
is part... You can't even see him, actually.
Just run through us. I'd allow it.
Run through and stab with your sword.
There's not a lot of room in this room, though.
That's alright, you got it.
How am I going to order
the greased floor, Jackson?
He's not on the greased floor.
You shall have to pass. Nah, because the grease's not on the greased floor. I will if I want to.
You shall have to pass.
Nah, because the greased floor's on the other side, isn't it?
The greased floor basically fills this room.
You got it.
You got it.
You're fine.
You're like nimble and shit.
You're an elf.
No.
You're nimble and shit.
You're like a human.
Yes.
You're nimble and shit.
All right.
Let's run through, past these guys
because I'm sick and tired of trying to
shoot things with them in the way
Oh no, did you say I run
straight first into the fucking block of wood?
I did not say that!
Oh no!
I hate you guys, I never take your advice
You smack into the block of wood and fall
face backwards onto the ground
Ainsley, no!
You're on your back.
Stop it!
Don't fall!
I hate you guys so much.
You can spend the rest of your turn just getting up,
or you can fight from where you are.
Fight from where you are?
Through the woods somehow?
No, you can hit him.
Yes!
You can hit him.
With your sword, yeah?
Yes!
You can't use your longbow while you're grounded.
While you're grounded.
Yes, with my sword in the face.
Well, in the face.
In the ankles?
In the ankles.
Hey, knock him down.
In the kidneys.
Hey.
You, like, as you were running, you drew your sword,
and it's just barely in your grasp
so you're just sort of waving it around
like you would a magical wand or something
this is so dangerous
the floor is greasy
you're waving your wand around
your magical block is sitting on top
it's a 10 foot by 10 foot room
right
the bed takes up
maybe just a quarter of the room your block takes up a quarter of the
room there's the wardrobe which takes up a quarter of the room there's this zombie which takes up a
oh my god there's more this shit is like overlapping on each other in ways you would
not believe like just like you know just half on the bed. This room is tightly packed with things,
and so few of them are friendly.
Okay.
The block of wood is at best neutral.
Is the zombie...
It's not reacting.
Not reacting there?
Okay, cool.
Can I sort of do a little bit of a Benny Hill duck
on the other side of the block of wood
to get behind the zombie?
I cannot stress how little this room is.
There is no behind the zombie.
Adam made a picture.
Yeah, I've made a little picture, which is so good for the audio.
But if you could imagine bed there, amenities there, block of wood there, Ainsley there, wizard there, fucking zombie there.
So just a little theater of the mind for the people listening in.
There is no fucking room.
Because I'm only little.
I'm a little man.
You're a wee fella.
I'm a wee fella.
I do want to go towards the zombie, like the animated one,
and draw my rapier threateningly, like at her neck,
and tell the wizard.
Oh, at the zombie. Zombie neck and tell the wizard. Oh, at the zombie.
Zombie.
And tell the wizard, can you please stop attacking us
or I'll slit her throat or like behead her.
You would have to, the wizard doesn't have anything in his hands.
Yeah, you could do that, but you'd be standing like,
you'd be standing maybe like chest to chest with the wizard
as you said that.
Do it.
Do it.
Do it anyway.
Do it anyway.
Can I push the zombie out and get behind her a little?
Do you want to get into that magical circle?
Yes.
Oh, thank you.
I was looking forward to this.
You're welcome.
Who doesn't want to get in a magic circle?
You know.
Okay, so you just like squeeze your way past the wizard.
Excuse me.
One second. I've got a plan.
You jut the rapier at this zombie's neck,
and what exactly do you say?
Can you please stop attacking us or our beheader?
You've got to wait for his turn to see what he does.
So it is now Kriff's turn.
Can I get rid
of the block of wood?
No, it lasts for three rounds.
Drink a potion, you idiot.
I'll drink a potion
of healing.
Good for you.
It is good.
You recover seven hit points.
Sick!
Lucky boy.
I would have liked it better if you had.
I drink a potion.
How many potions have we got?
The jump potion.
The hopper potion.
I'm off.
I'm now a gummy bear.
I think you drank the last of those, didn't you?
Yeah, I did.
We're out of rad potions.
That's good.
You still got hide from animals.
Yes.
Guys, hide from animals still in the bag.
Oh, and major armor.
We're going to play a little hide and seek with Jiggle Lump, I feel.
Yes.
Okay, and that puts it back at the wizard's turn.
He snarls, like literally like an animal might,
snarls at you and draws a dagger.
Son of a bitch.
He tries to dagger you in the face,
but in the confusing mass of limbs and blades, he can't score a bitch. He tries to dagger you in the face, but in the confusing mass of limbs and blades,
he can't score a hit.
You guys are like, he's like holding on to you.
You're holding on to him.
It's really, it's a mess.
It's tight in here and getting hot and sweaty.
And just to confuse matters, Ainsley.
Sorry.
It's your turn, Ainsley.
My instinct says go and hug him.
Pinches Bob.
Hug him.
Hug him.
Hug him.
I'm going to do it.
Because here's the thing, guys.
Here's my thinking.
He's just been turned down.
He proposed.
The zombie's like, I have no way of talking because I'm a zombie.
You need a little love.
Maybe he just needs a little.
Just give him a little hug.
Everyone needs a little hug.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's what we would do in the royal court that they kicked me out of.
You try to grab him, but as you're doing that,
his dagger swings around and cuts you on the forehead.
Oh, no.
My brain.
Not your pretty forehead.
You take four points of damage.
Oh, no.
I know he ain't.
And you give up on your attempt to grapple him.
Guys, talking reason and love isn't working. I don he doesn't like love. And you give up on your attempt to grapple him. Guys, talking reason and love isn't working.
I don't know what to do.
And that's the lesson for today, guys.
If Greece and Locke have lost each other.
Violence solves all problems.
Oh, God.
All right, goo up the cat, Jackson.
Understood. There's something for out of context D&D. Goo up the cat, Jackson. Understood.
There's something for out of context D&D.
Goo up the cat, Jackson.
God, yes.
I know what I'm doing.
Okay.
I don't think you can.
I'm out of spells.
Speaking of what you're doing, Griff.
Leo, it's your turn.
Just kill, try and attack.
Kill the zombie.
Cut the zombie.
Zombie ain't doing shit.
Why not, mate?
I start attacking the zombie.
You hit the zombie?
Yeah.
Oh, no.
With my club.
Because there's something about a rapier not good for a zombie.
Whatever is the best weapon for a zombie?
Acid?
No.
Okay, I'll let you do this.
Okay.
What is the best thing for a zombie?
It's the club.
You really should have said, I switch weapons first.
I switch weapons first.
I'll allow it.
Yes.
Because you'll just edit it so that you've said that first.
Like a champ.
Yeah, you swing with your club,
and it connects very solidly
with the zombie's head and like you cave her head in almost completely.
It falls over.
The wizard, oh, my God, he's like yelling at you.
Not like a word or anything like that.
He's just like yelling sounds.
He, oh, my God, is so mad.
Hug him again. No him again your pretty forehead i could throw a spear at a tiny cramped room can i just punch him in the
back of the head like so my god jackson you can use a spear as a spear as in just stabby stabby
but can i punch him in the back of the head if If you want to join in their mad melee, yeah.
I do, I do.
Clock him in the back of the head.
A wizard.
He swings around with the dagger, but you like punch over it.
You hit it, you clock him in the fucking face.
Yes.
Let's get raw.
Let's wrestle.
Three man parlor. Four man parlor. Yes! Let's get raw! Let's wrestle!
Three-man parlor.
Four-man parlor.
You break his nose and you've probably given him a black eye as well.
Yeah!
Got to be just punching dudes from now on.
Ain't nothing quite like cold clocking a wizard in his punchy wizard face.
Wizards don't get much exercise, guys.
He, like, raises his hands as high as
he can. Oh, I'm going to get turned into
a house.
A house within the house.
He starts making an arcane chant
and when he brings them down,
fire just everywhere.
A block of wood.
Oh no.
It's about to disappear. Oh, thank. At least we got rid of it. Oh, no, it's about to disappear.
Oh, thank God.
That was getting in the way.
Oh, boy.
Oh, no.
Okay.
Krith, half damage.
Oh, wait.
I have evasion.
Yeah.
Yes.
Everyone else takes full damage, though.
Evasion only works when you make the save and you failed your save.
Oh no. Your cat takes damage as well.
I don't give a fuck.
I hate that piece of shit.
What's he done in this fight? Nothing. Piece of shit.
I have to tell him to do something.
Why don't you tell him to do something?
Can't I just be like, hey Jiggalob, be on guard.
Just come on now.
If something's attacking us, maybe just
go over there and sort some shit out.
You're a tough cat.
You've got more health than I do, mate.
Like, you're ostensibly a better character than I will ever be.
You have goals, aspirations to one day leave me.
Exactly.
Just tell me I have a goal, aspirations.
I'm just passing away the apps until I die.
Everyone except Kriff takes two points of damage.
Kriff takes one.
Only two?
It was more of like a puff of fire than a gout.
Weak.
Like he sneezed fire.
Okay.
I take just two?
Easy.
No, you take one.
Seven.
Everyone else takes two. Seven, eleven take one. Oh, seven. Everyone else takes two.
Seven, 11, whatever.
I'm on 11.
I'm on 10.
And I'm on seven, seven, 11.
I feel left out, guys.
That's some free advertising for you, seven, 11.
That one's on us.
Oops.
Give us money.
I said that one's on us.
I wasn't talking to seven, 11.
Oh.
Okay. And now it is Ainsley's turn. I wasn't talking to 7-Eleven Okay
And now it is
Ainsley's turn
Alright guys
Hugging did not work
Punching did work better
Clock him in the jaw
Use your sword
Or wrassle
Nah let's do this wrassle
I love a good chance to wrassle
Yeah he's like just swinging wildly With that fucking dagger Rassle. Either way. Nah, let's do this. Rassle. I love a good chance to rassle.
Yeah, he's like just swinging wildly with that fucking dagger.
You like duck and weave and you get between his blows.
And you want to rassle him.
And you like try to grab on, but you just like,
your arms are wrapped just around his legs and you just like slide down comically his rope.
Probably with that grease he fell on.
You are covered in grease.
We all are.
So we just try to have
a greasy wrestle.
Leo, it's your turn.
Get my rapier out
and try and stab the wizard.
Punching works a bit better than stabbing.
Hey, hey.
Maybe not.
It's critical.
Yeah, but which way?
Head.
Oh, okay.
Zammet stabs himself in the dick.
Zammet champion.
I'm so excited for you, Zammet.
Crits are a good time.
You stab him in the eye.
Oh, no. The bruised one? time. You stab him in the eye. Oh no.
The bruised one?
It doesn't matter, he's dead.
Oh yeah, got it.
You stab him in the eye and he just
slumps up against the wall,
slides down, your block of wood
vanishes and the grease ends.
You were a lot easier
than your zombie minions,
buddy.
Is this a win for us?
I think so.
Have we successfully done something?
Do we count this as a win?
I think so, until we find out what happened here, we're winning.
The magical mark fades from the ground.
Oh, that's good.
There was a writing desk, yes?
Yeah.
Can I look through the writing desk, see what was going on?
Is there a journal of sorts?
There is, but it's for the priest who used to live here, not this guy.
Can we read it anyway?
Yeah.
It's very mundane.
What happened?
What has happened to the priest?
I'm curious now.
He goes back, like, years, decades.
The priest is writing about how...
You know what?
He's a bit of a gossip, actually.
Oh, I love it.
All right.
I'm enthralled.
I sit down.
We just take a nestle, get a pile of zombies from the other room,
make a little couch.
I start reading it out loud.
How far back do you want to go?
Oh, that's when the bitching starts.
Okay, there's, like, some recent scandal
where, like, the mayor's wife left with some, like,
just some wandering bard or whatever.
Oh, my goodness.
You, like, read more recent things.
There's, like, some kids who are having a fight
and, like, their parents aren't really doing anything about it.
Bad parenting, guys.
That's not on.
Bad parenting leads to becoming a rogue and perhaps an assassin.
Exactly.
That's how you become a rogue.
Bad parenting leads to zombies.
Yeah.
And then some of the most recent stuff is, like,
some weirdo has recently just come to town and is camping at the edge.
I point at the other guy.
I guess that's him.
That's probably that guy.
I mean, I made an assumption before and I'm making it again, but I reckon it's him.
And the last page is like the guy came to talk to him about a specific person who died here recently.
And that entry just ends suddenly and there's a blood stain there
I'm guessing that other person is a dead
sombo over there
I'm going to search the wardrobe
I'm going to search the dead wizard
There's robes, I guess
One set of priest's robes
Better than his robes currently?
No, he's got no robes
These robes are itchy and uncomfortable
I'm going to chuck them in my backpack anyway.
I'll add priest's robes.
I will.
Good.
I intend to.
Good.
Hey, can we use his black awesome mage robes?
Those are very dusty and travel worn.
You can take them if you want.
Do we want to...
Hey, sell them in town.
We got six copper for that guy's jacket.
That's true.
He also has a spell book on him if you want that. Yes. In a Hey, sell them in town. We got six copper for that guy's jacket. That's true. He also has a spell book
on him if you want that.
Yes.
In a sec,
we're discussing robes, Adam.
Or if we wanted,
we could like dress up
like, you know,
wizards and priests and shit.
If you've got to do
like a little sneaky ruse.
Yeah.
Put it in your backpack.
Put that wizard robe
in your backpack.
Wizard robe.
All right, now...
And I guess, yes,
a spell book.
I suppose.
Whatever.
Hey, is it in... If it suppose. Whatever. Is it in?
If it fits.
What language is it in?
Griff, here you go.
It's in Draconic, the language of magic.
Do I know Draconic?
Do I know Draconic?
You should.
I don't.
I read it and try and learn spells.
You can do that.
You can spend time doing that.
You can add these spells to your spell book.
What are the spells?
It'll take you some time to decipher them.
When you get some downtime, we'll roll that out for you.
Sick.
Excellent.
And look around the room.
Anything else?
Spell books.
I hope I get, like... Nothing of interest.
Grease floor two.
That'll be all right.
Ainsley, are you searching as well?
No.
I think I might have a nap, guys.
All right.
Might have a nap.
I got sliced in the forehead.
So maybe a bit of a lie down?
No, I'll just use my healing and bandage you up a little.
Oh, that's a better idea.
That's a better idea than a nap.
Naps are good.
The heal skill doesn't really like...
I guess 3.5 D&D just assumes wounds instantly cauterize after they're made.
If you guys rest and stuff like that,
you can make heal checks to help everyone recover,
but just bandage your wounds.
I look at your forehead.
We'll get back to town.
I look at your forehead.
I'm like, I think it's good.
By healing, yeah, top notch.
My medical knowledge is fucking sick.
I'll give the rumor once over as well.
If I was to have that cut, perfect. Nothing to interest. Fuck this room. top notch my medical knowledge it's looking sick I'll give the rumor once over as well
if I was to like
have that cut
perfect
nothing to say
fuck this room
can I look at the dead
zombo that we
smashed in the face
the chick
yeah
anything like
remarkable about her
she's wearing like
burial robes
traditional burial robes
but they're
not worth anything
anything identifying
of her who she is
or was
nah
should we take her anyway?
No.
Her face is basically caved in.
No.
We've got to stop doing that.
Because it becomes hard to identify them.
What should we do with the wizard?
Leave him.
How's his head looking?
Set the place on fire?
Stabbed with a dagger?
Fire?
Can you burn a crypt?
You can burn everything in it. All right. Yeah, we'll set it on fire? Stabbed with a dagger? Fire? Can you burn a crypt? You can burn everything, innit?
All right.
Yeah, we'll set it on fire.
But no, should we cut off his head and take it back to prove he did it?
Yeah, we'll cut off his head.
This is someone's, well, they're probably dead,
but this is like, this town still belongs to people.
If somewhat zombie infested right now.
Oh yeah, there's still Zambos up there.
I thought they would have died with a necromancer dead.
Maybe they did. Anyway, let's cut Zambos up top. I thought they would have died with a necromancer dead. Maybe they did.
Anyway, let's cut off his head.
Chuff on up.
And if not, then maybe we can do zombie,
like the wizard's head to maybe,
is the power of a wizard in their head is what I'm asking.
I think you're thinking of Gorgons.
And yeah, Medusa.
I don't have much arcana knowledge.
So in my head, I'm thinking that if shit goes down,
I could throw this necromancer's head at the zombies
and it's all going to be well.
Yeah, I'll believe that.
We'll cut off the wizard's head.
Who's cutting it off?
Shugger not.
I'll do it.
Do you have a blade weapon?
I have a rapier and a dagger.
Rapier is a pointed weapon.
It would take you a long time.
Dagger is better, not ideal.
Yeah, you butcher it.
Well, at least you're consistent.
You butchered the last one. Well, hey,
I tried. I gave it a go. You take all
the wrong cuts of meat first off.
You cut way too high
and you've cut a lot of the bottom part
of his head off as well.
Look, guys, I think... What are you keeping it in?
Just your backpack?
Guys, we have his robe.
That's evidence enough.
Yeah, just leave the head.
Yeah, I'll just put the head back on his body.
Like no one tried to take it off.
No, like on his stomach.
I make him hold his own head.
I think that might be respectful,
but I think I'm trying very poorly.
I might grab the priest's diary as well, because that's kind of evidence.
Yeah, gossipy as well.
Make fun of the mayor.
It's good blackmail.
It is.
Mayor's dead, guys.
Oh, same.
Anyway, we chuffed on up.
Yeah, we chuffed on up.
You closed the door.
Magefire?
Can we just
I think I threw it at the zombies before
It's alchemist fire it's called
Probably best that you don't
