Starting point is 00:00:00 Like she sort of lost control or something. I didn't mean to kill that guy. She'd say anything to you. I had a few notes. I don't know if she has control over herself. It could be dinner. Jack is like, what? Just raw dough.
Starting point is 00:00:12 Wow, really great assessment, Red. You ever seen a Janassie blush? How dare you? Starting to be worried about those kids we just left. It's not too often you look at one sheep. Here's some sourdough starter for you. That's a natural 20. Fuck.
Starting point is 00:00:27 Whoa! Yeah, too bad we're not into battle. You know a lot about sheep. So glad we used that on her sheep. Which makes my role a 19. MVP.

Questions will be provided by stuff and such who always brings it home. It's going to be an amazing time. All right, shall we do this? Yeah, let's play some D&D. Woo! Ow! Ow! You're going to be teleported to water deep with 50 gold in your pocket. How are you spending your long weekend in the fantasy city? Am I a wizard?
Starting point is 00:02:13 You're just you. I'm just me? You just have 50 gold in a fantasy league. You're an audio wizard. Why do I got to go to Waterdeep? I want to go to Mastika. I want to see it. It seemed like it'd be fun.
Starting point is 00:02:24 You could see some fantastical shit. You're a tourist. 50 gold I could hire a wizard. You probably can. Did you what? Yeah, that's a great. Cast can trips. Like that candle.
Starting point is 00:02:35 I want a familiar. I was going to say like if I was a wizard like 50 bucks, probably buy a low level spell. And I don't know, I'm going, I'm going in the mindset that I got nothing going into it. It'd be pretty cool to learn a spell. Sure. I'm trying to cheat the system and come home with that spell, right? Like if I learn one there, you can't take it away from me when you zap me back home. I mean, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
Starting point is 00:02:59 I don't know how that translates to Waterdeep, but... Yeah, 50 gold, I don't know. I have to look up prices. It's like one healing potion. You're like, hit me with a car. Hit me with a car. But I love that you're like, no, no, no, I'm not staying anywhere. I'm sleeping on the streets.
Starting point is 00:03:11 I'm buying one healing potion. You're going to save up all that per diem. I think that's the thing. I don't think I'm spending my money. I think I'm looking for work. I'm going to go to Waterdeep, and I'm going to try to find a super, low-level adventure. Get that real experience.
Starting point is 00:03:29 Right. I thought you said we were there for one day. You're a long weekend. Oh, long weekend. I want to have a fucking D&D adventure. So Joe's going to die. No, no, no. I'm going to have...
Starting point is 00:03:38 Goblins are all up in her business. Well, definitely there'll be goblins or cobalts or something small. Maybe rats. Rats in the basement is the classic, isn't it? Ah, but see, I'm one step up. I'm going to go on a low-level adventure, but spend that $50 hiring a wizard to kill the goblins. Then I get the little. Then I leave.
Starting point is 00:03:56 I'm definitely going to a tavern to find some other low-level wannabe adventurers who I'm going to band up with. That you can push them into the, yeah, watch this. You go and you're like, I'm going for a low-level adventure. Yeah, this is called the tomb of horrors. It's going to be easy.
Starting point is 00:04:11 No, no. Don't worry. I've got inside knowledge. I got so many chickens in my bag. We'll be fine. I mean. And 10 foot poles. An aristocratic lifestyle is 10 gold a day minimum.
Starting point is 00:04:22 So you're not there for five days. You could live it up. Living, I'm living my best life at that point. That's what I'm saying. Joe, I think the joke is the adventure would open your eyes to suddenly to, to what real dangers you actually face. Like, we all laugh about it and stuff. You're like, well, I'm going on an adventure. And then you get there. You're like, holy shit, I'm into something really fucking deep here. You know, imagine how you'd feel in that moment all of a sudden getting dragged into, you know, a real adventure. My question is like, what? level do you think you would be as a person getting dropped in there? Like, are you just level one or are you level five? Zero. Definitely is. Not even level one. No, I don't even think we
Starting point is 00:05:05 touch the level scale. Level one has muscle mass. You slap me hard enough in the face and I'm down. Good night. Put it this way. A dagger does what, 1D4, right? And like a starter adventure's got like eight hit points. I don't think I
Starting point is 00:05:21 could survive two stabs with a dagger to the face. Commoner you could maybe you could get out of it like if you're lucky with one But after that you're pretty toast and even then yeah yeah to me like the scale of one to four Damage is like in my mind like where it is on the body like okay one damage is like the guy or like you know And then four damage is like the eyeball I'm not surviving more than one stab to the eyeball Yeah well because there's no you know what I mean like so by your estimation red-handed Robin could survive 20 stabs to the eyeball.
Starting point is 00:05:54 What I'm saying is that a 1D4 dagger implies that the most a dagger could do is for damage, which would mean that wherever you use that dagger, that's the most damage you could do, which would be like the eye. You are missing that strength or dexterity modifier of the wielder that really could tip the scales on you. That's true. Yeah. And a proficiency. I love the idea that Joe's made a note now of like how many stabs to the eyeball all of our characters could take. and we meet like a gun.
Starting point is 00:06:25 How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tutsi. The next combat is going to be exclusively eyeball steps. Yeah, you know what? Next combat, we're all starting. You're like, okay, and you guys enter the room and we're like, we're all wearing iron helmets.
Starting point is 00:06:38 What? Yeah, Marie's got goggles on. Screw you guys. She's just, she's got a little. I got safety goggles. No, I do like the idea, though, of being like, this is my new NPC, Bobby Stabby Ball Eyeball or something.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Bobby Stabby Ball eyeball. I love him. I wonder what he does. He's so diverse of a character. Joe, I love your three-dimensional NPCs. Not all of them are winners. I want to be a poet. I was going to say, he's like a cha-cha dancer.
Starting point is 00:07:06 He's actually an optician. Nothing to do with the name. He's like, well-in-a-family names. He's named Mike. Yeah, I was running a Star Wars game, and I remember I made an NPC named Space Mike. Everyone goes through those So I know what I would do in Waterdeep With a what would you do in Waterdeep
Starting point is 00:07:28 What would you say a pocket full of money Get robbed I would like any vacation Right You get souvenirs What better to bring back From a Waterdeep would be Like I'd go clothing shopping
Starting point is 00:07:43 And come back bells So many bells So many bells Waterdeep fashion known to be sensible A robe of the finest silk A robe of the finest silk Roll of bells. I love that.
Starting point is 00:07:54 Terrible for recording. Right? Like, think about that. Either that or like a really cool flippin dagger or like, you know, something. Dagger's for all the children. I'd go straight to the copper cup and find a guy named Torin. Oh, no. Get his number.
Starting point is 00:08:14 I got a bone to pick with you. Oh, I'd go to a strip club. I mean, it would be fun to go to like. the yawning portal or a famous temple or something. You've got to do the touristy things. Oh, absolutely. Get some street food? Yes.
Starting point is 00:08:30 What is like Water Davian street food? Dying to no Joe. Rats. It's all rat based. It's rat on a stick. Well, 50 gold isn't 50 bucks. 50 gold is like 500? Depends.
Starting point is 00:08:43 Depends 500 maybe? Oh, really. I've really fucked with the economy just because you guys have so much treasure. Yeah. They probably don't see gold pieces too often. Honestly, you get to a certain point in D&D where the players just have so much gold that it's like, what are we even doing here? What? Each gold piece would be worth about $285.
Starting point is 00:09:04 Oh, wow. That changes things. So we're looking at $14,000 for a long weekend. Wow, that's fun. But when you think about it, $300 a night. Hold on. For a hotel. $14,000 for 2D4 plus two.
Starting point is 00:09:20 healing? What? A healing potion. Oh, no, I think that's a greater healing potion. 50 gold is a healing potion. Using the standard D&D weight of 50 gold pierces to a pound, we find that each gold piece would be worth about $240, $2805, assuming the gold is commodity quality. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:09:35 I'm just, it was the first answer. Yeah. That really puts in perspective, that resurrection spell on how much it costs. Good Lord. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And if you think about the cost of a greater healing, like that actually makes sense.
Starting point is 00:09:48 $14,000 to heal instant. Um, yeah, yeah. Mari burned quite a few gold pieces, uh, during her episode. Uh, yeah, sorry guys. Duh. You guys were, you guys were partying and buying new clothes. Mari, you didn't say what you're in do with $50, don't you? I would, I would, I would, I feel like I would find like, like a middling sort of like
Starting point is 00:10:11 in to stay at somewhere comfortable and then I was a middle aged, middle aged man. I would find someone middle aged and then I would just make out with him. No. I would They have to be not too old and not to you just a one
Starting point is 00:10:24 Yeah Bring me to your most average Warlock Let's make a pact I would just be like I want to try all the weird
Starting point is 00:10:37 fantasy I want to find like fruit that doesn't exist in this world I want to see what kind of weird shit's out there
Starting point is 00:10:43 I want to eat something that makes me hallucinate for a bit like I'm just I'm just on a snack tour I have the perfect tour guide for you
Starting point is 00:10:50 His name is Red This bush of berries is really good Come have one, it's free You might have to pick the glass out Yeah, I would bring Red with me To get him to be like the poison Ver like the poison tester or whatever And then if he eats something and he's fine
Starting point is 00:11:03 I'm like I shouldn't have that It's probably he's built of different stuff A gastronomy tour would be cool though 100% totally I want to see like the fantasy races too Like bird people and like dragon born and all that stuff. Like, you know, that's the middle-aged person I'm making it with.
Starting point is 00:11:23 Dragon board's just walking the street. You're like gawking at him. Like, whoa, look. She's pointing. Like, it's one of them dragon-born. Seriously drawing a picture. That's kind of how I feel like people treat red sometimes because tabaxi are pretty rare in Fayeroon. Stop pointing at me.
Starting point is 00:11:37 Yeah, that's true. I did, I did envision when you pose the question, Rob, I did envision, you know, looking around on the streets and there's like, you know, sparsely, one, clear tourist you know it's like a guy with a backpack on wearing like nylon backpack you know bright colors and then and then over there oh there's another guy wearing one of those tilly hats and you're like oh you can just clearly point out the people from earth yeah yeah yeah sure they're going to gawk at castle water deep again how many times did they walk through castle water deep then it's right across town to the city of the dead and there mervov's real mortal food It's, like, got hamburgers and, like, foe.
Starting point is 00:12:21 That's great. It's a fantasy emodium in this world? American. Yeah, American. Oh, yeah, I'd be bringing, like, gravel with me and everything. I know I'm going to get fucked up hard. 100%. Oh, my God, yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:33 You definitely don't want IBS on the main water deep strip. Oh, man. I'm sure you would. I mean, the adventurers in those sewers are going to regret it. They're going to be having an even worse time. Your friends leave you at a temple and go to a lovely bathhouse. Let it go. Joe, that would be my fear.
Starting point is 00:12:50 That would be my fear being an adventure. They'd be like, guys, we're heading into the sewers. And you're like, this is bad. This is bad. I know exactly what's happening. Stinky down here. Well, unfortunately, we can't visit Fyroon. But we can go there in our imagination.
Starting point is 00:13:07 Oh, my God. What? Yeah. I'm down. I want to spend my 50 gold pieces a day. You can. We have so much money. Actually, we have so much money.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Having disbanded the bandits, our heroes return to the long road, heading north on horseback towards Westbridge. Red, on top of Rob, he's riding up front again. And every so often, as he's next to Doran, he looks over his shoulder back at Marie. Doren, what the hell happened back? there, it seemed like Marie couldn't hold back, you know? Yeah, like she sort of lost control or something. I mean, listen, we've all been there, but I never expected it from Marry.
Starting point is 00:13:59 That being said, when we were in the Dragon's Den, she did pull me aside and said that ever since she brought back Elister, she felt there was something kind of tickling the back of her mind, and she said for me to keep an eye on her if she should, you know, start acting strangely. You talked to her. The other day at the camp. Did she say anything to you? Well, Redd, I mean, she we talked about
Starting point is 00:14:24 basically what she told all of us. You know, that she was visited by that spirit. I think it's shaken her. That's all she said, just the same things she told us. She didn't tell you anything else. She has been talking for quite a bit. Listen.
Starting point is 00:14:42 There's probably more that she needs to talk to us about. And I'm going to leave it with her to let us know, but, you know, there's sometimes some things are private, and maybe she doesn't want to worry anybody yet, although Doran sort of looks back of her shoulder. I've got to say, I'm a little worried about her. Meanwhile, Mari and Jack, are you two riding together? I, Jack's chariot sort of slides.
Starting point is 00:15:15 into position next to Marie's horse. It's still dressed up in Red Rover's livery. Start to finish. It just feels like a solid default place to start now for him. And he just looks over to sort of see where, you know, where her temperature's at as far as, you know, does she look in a mood or what's, you know, what's he looking at? You ever seen a Janassi blush?
Starting point is 00:15:38 It's like, she's just kind of like got these like purple circles on her cheeks. She just looks because she can see Red did I do that? Whoopsie doodle. She can see Red and Doran like talking up ahead and then like looking backwards.
Starting point is 00:15:57 And she's trying really hard to not lock eyes with them when they look back. She's just trying to be like, I'm just riding ahead. I'm just watching the road and I'm trying to not acknowledge that I just tore
Starting point is 00:16:10 some people in half. So, So, uh, some new tricks. Yeah. Trying out some new stuff. And I think it went a little bigger than I planned. I had a few notes. Okay.
Starting point is 00:16:28 Uh. Let's hear them. Well, I assumed that's what you were looking for. Yeah. No, I think, I think at this point, uh, I think feedback from someone else who's at least understands magic would be nice. Like, I did not mean to tear him in half. Yeah, that seemed, that seemed like to be the number one problem.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Not a lot of control there. No, I mean, I just, I just, I wanted to stop them. And I can't say that, like, if we'd made an example of them, that would be a huge issue. It's not like it seems to have stopped any of you guys before. But I don't think I accounted for how much viscera would be involved. Too much. What are your thoughts, Jack? Did something feel different?
Starting point is 00:17:19 The spell was different. It was new pieces of old magic that I was trying to feel out, and I'm trying to get a hold on, and look, I didn't mean to kill that guy. But I can't say I regret tapping into that kind of power. I can't say I regret it because I left home, having destroyed my whole. life and destroyed the life of others because I let my magic get out of control and I've been trying to control it more, but that limits me. And being on the road with you guys, seeing what you can do, seeing what we have to face and seeing what's coming in the future, I can't tamp
Starting point is 00:18:00 it down anymore. I can't just sit there and keep it at bay. I need to, I need to try to harness it. Let me think about it for a bit, Maury. I got a couple ideas. And Jack sort of drives away a little bit. Look, if you know what's going on, I trust you and Mari that you would tell us if it was important or dangerous. Yeah. So I'm going to assume it's just something personal. We've all had our fair share of secrets.
Starting point is 00:18:36 Yeah. Believe you, me, I understand the need to keep them sometimes. Put it this way, Red. It's, it's... The secret is... is out and that was you know the the thing that came to see her
Starting point is 00:18:48 that thing from the closet you know the in-between thing I don't know I don't understand how this magic works but let me need that I told her I wouldn't tell anybody and I figure I'll stick with that I get it I get it I do look like I said I know you enough
Starting point is 00:19:03 I trust you enough that you would tell me if it was dangerous and I trust Maori enough to do the same so I'll leave it I think I'm at the stage now where it's Less about trusting her and what she says and what she does. I think I trust her, but I don't know if I trust that she actually has control over herself, just based on what we've seen. Look, it's not the first time we've seen one of our magic user friends
Starting point is 00:19:32 be a little corrupted by power, you know? Red now looks back over her shoulder at Jack, and then back. not to say that I'm worried or anything Like I said You and I have also Tasted bloodshed and been a little ravenous for it That's true
Starting point is 00:19:49 But I don't know With that much power I mean some of the things they can do I mean you saw those trees come to life They tore that man to shreds You and I do not have that kind of Domination over nature Or anything for that matter
Starting point is 00:20:06 And with Maori delving more and more into these sort of dark necromanic I don't know I don't know I just hell I've lost control of myself from time to time
Starting point is 00:20:18 and even if I do it's not like I can reach you know hundreds of meters across a distance if I lose control it's immediate right in front of me
Starting point is 00:20:31 and just don't stand nearby being out on the road and constantly in battle it can mess with one's head You know? Let's just keep an eye on them. Between you and I, let's just keep an eye. You realize that just up ahead of you on the road,
Starting point is 00:20:48 there is a single sheep. It's standing there, staring at you, chewing its cut. Look, everyone, it's a sheep, Stephen. Sheeven. Sheepvin. It's not too often you look at one sheep. And Red hops off his horse. oh hi sheven where's the rest of the flock and he like crouches over and puts his little fingers out as if he had something he's like hi and starts walking towards the sheep the sheep is unfazed by you which is kind of extraordinary based on your appearance um its wool is pretty dirty and matted it seems unfazed by me it's probably a sheep that's
Starting point is 00:21:37 but you shear like a working sheep, you know, not a free sheep like us, not an adventurer's sheep. More like a farmed sheep, you know, like a flock. Maybe it's just shy, Red. Maybe it's a bit sheepish. And Red walks right up and tries to pet it. It permits your touch. Is it a white? Sheeper.
Starting point is 00:22:01 It's like a slushy gray color from not being cared for in. like a little bit beautiful gray sheep come on everyone pet sheaving whim hops down on the horse and immediately starts petting the sheep
Starting point is 00:22:16 she's really into it I want to take more of a look at this sheep I eviscerate it attacks with the trees I tear the sheep apart I love this idea that Marty's like literally on horseback like talking to Jackie's like
Starting point is 00:22:32 I just I have control of it and then looks at the sheep is like kill! die die sorry that sheep i had a vendetta with that was nothing about magic i just that guy just wanted blood on her face she looks back to jack she's like anyway what were we talking about i felt much better i i'm curious if i could she can take a little like a closer look at this sheep because i'm wondering if this is not a sheep do you have sheep sense put your eyeballs right into its wool Look through the windows into its soul
Starting point is 00:23:08 I'm hoping that if this sheep is possibly a druid in wild shape That there is some tell If it is, it's a dirty druid How do you want to investigate? She hops down off the horse And comes over to the sheep Come say hi to sheave in And looks it right in its beady little eyes
Starting point is 00:23:28 And I'm trying to see if there's any sort of Like how smart is this thing look You druid You legally have to tell me if you're a druid, because if you don't, you're a trap it. Just grab it by the face here. Yeah, you look first in one eye than the other, because it's like a prey animal, so it's got eyes on either side of its face. And glassily, your face is reflected in each of its eyes as you look. It has a stupid expression.
Starting point is 00:24:04 Well, it still could be a druid, not saying real smart. You think it's a druid? I mean, last time I ran into an animal in the woods, and she's thinking about the bear. I don't know. Are you a druid? Red says to Shevin. I don't think it is. I think he just wants pets.
Starting point is 00:24:30 Did you want to come with us? Why are you always inviting any of everything to come with us? Jack is like What? This sheep can't fight? The sheep will fight. This sheep will fight. Not come with us just until we get to town.
Starting point is 00:24:46 I would imagine if anyone owns it, they would know in town. Right, buddy? And he gets down and Red checks it for like a collar. I mean, or a brand, I suppose. I feel like Red just reaching around. He's like, oh, it's a boy. It doesn't have any specific markings. Hmm
Starting point is 00:25:04 Doesn't have any specific mockings And it doesn't look really cared for It looks like maybe It's been like a couple of weeks Red is a guild artisan His guild is woodworking But I feel like he would rub shoulders With all different types
Starting point is 00:25:22 Including You know those who work with wool and stuff Can I maybe roll something to see If this is a neglected sheep Or a wild sheep, you know I imagine if a sheep has been sheared year over year and then neglected it would look different than a sheep that's you know potentially you can roll nature yeah perfect that's a natural 20 fuck yeah too bad we're
Starting point is 00:25:45 not in a battle you know a lot about she so glad we used that on her sheep which makes my role a 19 what really i'm a minus one in nature for some reason well from its stupid face you recognize that this is a domesticated animal something that is used to having all of its needs and wants taken care of in order that it will supply its owner with wool and milk, probably. Based on the condition of its coat, this animal has not been cared for for a couple of weeks. It's probably missing from its farmstead. Well, if this is a druid, it's in deep, deep cover, because this has been neglected for a few weeks at least.
Starting point is 00:26:29 It definitely reads as a sheep that's been taken care of previous to the last few weeks. Looks. Look, you can see where its little hooves have been shaved. See, that marking right there, that's a metal file. You wouldn't get that off a rock or a tree. Wow, really great assessment, Red. And I'm not being facetious. For sheepish? Look, I'm a guild artisan as established moments ago. And Red grabs a piece of leather from his... I thought there were some kids trying to get medicine for their sick mom that we were trying to help. This is, like... Sheep get loose. We gave them money. I'm sure they're at town and they only bought medicine and all that. Red grabs a long piece of leather strap and ties it to the sheep and hops back on Rob. Let's lead it into town.
Starting point is 00:27:17 Yeah. Maybe someone there will claim ownership of it. It is definitely strain from the flock. Is that a word, Jack? Flock? Strain? Like to have strayed? Strayed?
Starting point is 00:27:30 Strayed. That's the word. Strain. Straining from the flock? it's just pulling away but trying really hard. All right, let's keep it PG. There's a lot of flocks going around. Yeah, I wonder if this is one of the flocks that a giant had eaten.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Oh, yeah. Maybe that's why it's abandoned. Yeah. Well, let's lead it into town. Best case scenario, no one needs it, and we can drop it off at the Humbrant household, which I do think we should visit, by the way. It's mid-afternoon when you come to a farmstead.
Starting point is 00:27:56 A home a little ways up a laneway with a couple of barns and out buildings off to the periphery. and the fields around are shorn of any tall plants by a small herd of sheep that are contentedly poking through a cap of snow to expose brown grass underneath. Hey, I wonder if this is Sheven's home. Well, there's only one way to find out.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Maybe there's a reward. Red hops up and takes the little sheep by the leash and walks towards the farm. Come on, guys. Whim? Everyone's still just on their horses. Okay, I'll do it myself. Yeah, Wim will follow you.
Starting point is 00:28:35 Murray hops down and comes with. Wim's been, like, walking alongside this sheep, combing through its matted wool with her fingers to try and dislodge the twigs and leaves. There's just, like, so much lanylid on her hands now. They're so soft. Mm-hmm. And Red comes up to the farmstead door and knocks.
Starting point is 00:28:56 Mm-hmm.
