Pickax.
I was guilty of multiple skin care crimes.
Two counts of sleeping and makeup.
One count of using disposable wipes.
I knew my routine had to change.
So I switched to Garnier-Missler water.
It gently cleanses, perfectly removes makeup,
and provides 24-hour hydration.

Welcome back to Althea the Dragon Empire.
Our heroes are currently engaged in a battle against Janaria, emissary of Sovereign.
Oh, nice, big epic music.
The holy knights, the holy warriors of the Church of the Science
are desperately running around trying to seal away crown steel shards,
which Yanari seems to be able to draw some power from,
but the angelic, demonic-like creature herself is pretty strong.
And when she hits, she hits very hard,
and has summoned a rolling wave of bright storm flame
to rake across the battlefield, and we jump in to a brand new,
top of the round turn.
As they do so.
as they do so.
So, five, ten, fifteen, twenty.
Oh, crossing over.
Oh, so morning.
Three of our boys.
Yeah.
Unseen servant disappears.
Thank you.
The unseen servant will vanish as all three of your friends.
Good.
So this is six fire.
Extry.
Doesn't affect the minions either.
Radiant.
So that's 12.
They love that.
Oh, the veil gets burned.
Your veil, I might get destroyed.
Your veil, well, I would say normally when your clothes
and things are on you, they don't get destroyed,
but because it's on the unseen servant,
I'm afraid it is just incinerated.
So that was Fergal and Agna who were down there.
And then some mourning.
So morning actually hasn't been hit yet,
so that's pretty good.
I do have some back.
Have good news first.
Agna, the Dwarven Warrior who has been actually quite competent
in most of these battles.
She's clutching at her body, this whatever affliction,
this burn bright that she seems to be a suffering from.
As the rolling bright storm flame washes over her
and her vitality is reduced to zero,
her body does not fall to the floor.
Oh no.
It does not land.
Oh, shit.
She is consumed by fire and light.
Oh my God.
And her body vanishes into dust.
Fuck!
Leaving behind, the only thing that remains
is the lead, sorry not lead,
the gray box of the reliquary that she was carrying.
Oh, crap.
Remains where she once was.
Her armor, her clothing, anything that is not wholly anointed
seems to burn and evaporate along with her.
She screams, no, no.
It's like Sarah Connor in turn.
And you see him, Mawgna, no, kind of call out
as she evaporates.
Fuck.
So the holy stuff does work.
The reliquary, the enchanted reliquary seems to be protected
against this magic in something.
I mean, it's scorched and blasted,
but it's not incinerated in the same way that Agner is.
So reliquary-wise, we have one at the top, lead.
So John, yeah, John is currently carrying one,
which has got crown steel sealed.
So Glory is currently sealing one away over here.
Yeah.
But if she's interrupted or stopped, that won't happen anymore.
Like it, well, the crown still will be freed.
And then there's still the one that is within 20 feet of me,
but depowered right now.
Yeah, currently.
Well, it is the start of Yanaria's turn,
and that crown steel begins to glow once again.
And Xanthias, you feel this wash of power.
warmth, energy, strength, all of it comes flooding into you.
Can I please have a wisdom saving?
Yeah, yeah, you can.
Yeah, as a reminder, by the way,
I have minus two to my wisdom.
I will add a fate to it,
because I do actively,
yeah, want to resist.
Yeah, want to resist.
Yeah.
And this is all at the start of her turn,
I should point out as well.
This will be in that 20 with my cry of steel dice,
which likes to tell wonderful stories.
Oh, I mean, okay, okay.
13 total.
It's probably not enough.
It's probably not enough.
Yeah, okay.
You cannot move away from the crown still shard.
Orbiting this thing.
And you feel drawn to it.
Like a moth.
Like it.
It's...
No.
And you can tell Xanthius,
the shard that you are looking at,
you know its purity is higher than even the one in your chest.
For real?
Straight from the moon, man.
Oh no.
You know why I asked you to roll those D20s plus D4s?
Oh yeah.
They were to determine the purity.
Oh, so my one was the shitter down there.
You, Kim's and Riannon's rolled the second highest purity you can get.
Oh my God.
The second highest purity of course that you can get.
Oh my god.
That's cool.
It is calling to you if you consume it.
Oh it's so good though.
Look at it.
Holy shit.
Again, this is all at the start of Yanari's turn.
It's not that size.
I don't have an empty port, I don't get to steal your fate points,
but she does get to take her turn now.
Oh, fuck.
And I am going to immediately use one of my fate points
to use her radiant reposition as she teleports.
Oh, God.
Uh...
Here.
Hello.
No, here.
I need the dragon spirit to make a constitution saving throw as
when she vanishes and teleports,
this blinding flare of brilliant radiant energy
expands outwards from her previous position.
As a whopping eight.
Eight points.
She is going to take,
the Dragon Spirit, sorry, is going to take...
More than 14?
Less than that.
Three points of radiant.
Quite a bit more.
However, it is also dazed.
Which means that it cannot take action,
move, and bonus action on the same term.
It's immune to charm, friday poison.
Yeah.
Okay.
So she's teleported next to the shard
that Gruff, Sir Gloria and Nella next to.
Yes, and her weapons do appear to have considerable reach.
Is it three damage or four?
Three radiant damage.
And she is then going to multi-attack Ophelia, Rowan and Sir Glory.
Bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it.
So I have to attack you.
Yeah.
Okay.
So Gruff, you throw yourself in the way,
desperately trying to protect.
Glory.
Let's do the attack against, let's start with Rowan,
clockwise.
22.
Yeah.
Ophelia.
Yeah.
Uh, 28.
Yeah.
Rough, natural 20.
Oh my God.
I did not empower her attacks though, so this is just kind of the normal act.
Oh good.
Just a normal crit.
I'll do the other two damage to them, we'll do the crit last.
I feel like every time Gruff use Warden's duty, I think it's just every time, but it's great.
I'm here for it.
I mean, I said I would protect her.
Right. Ophelia, because we've got to do your separately because you're Raython as well.
That is going to be.
12 points of slashing, so half to six,
and then two points of fire and one point of radiant,
which you don't half, so that's actually not too bad.
That's not too bad.
Right. Glory took that.
Rowan, that is going to be 15 points of slashing,
six points of fire, and three points of radiant.
I'm going to Stone's Endurance, that one.
Yeah, so that would be 15, 21, 24 currently total.
24 minus nine plus.
Other stuff, carry on.
Yeah.
Three, uh, 12.
Is?
I forgot the original number.
24.
24 minus.
12.
Oh, luckily I roll pretty bad on the next to the next.
We got there.
50, 47.
36 total damage to gruff.
That's been slashing fire and radiant.
You have time for my bardic.
That's gone.
As these slammed attacks, as the ribbon almost
becomes like a whip, like a slashing whip blade.
Rushes towards Rowan, rushes towards you, Ophelia,
and then rushes out to Sir Glory,
but gruff, you throw yourself in the shield in the way.
It breaks through part of the shield and strikes at your side,
but you manage to stop it.
Sir Glory looking up in panic,
because she's completing the prayer, you know,
trying to get ready to complete it as Yanarias.
Just like, no, no, you are stopping everything.
They must burn, it must burn.
Doesn't have to.
And then, finally, I do have one point of fate.
which I'm going to use
to use her emulation bindings once more.
This time, I'm going to say
because you are blocking it, Graff,
I was going to try and use this on Sir Glory,
but I'm going to try and use it on you.
So from that one remaining piece of crown steel,
yanks power from it and tries to bind you.
That is a dexterity saving through.
One next to me.
Yeah.
This doesn't depower it, though.
That's a separate legendary action that she uses.
Can I hear something about...
No, it's push, pull and prone.
Yes.
This won't help you on this one.
Five.
You are restrained.
Wouldn't have done a thing.
Wouldn't have done a thing.
Alright, you are restrained,
Gruff, so at the start of your turn, you're gonna take some damage.
You're restrained next to the person you want to defend, so.
But I would say that it's pretty hard to try and defend somebody
when you're restrained by fiery thing.
It's gruff we're talking about.
Pick me up, make me a shield.
Use my body.
The warriors.
The warriors.
Fergal.
Come on, Fergal.
Go to Faggna.
It's going to move to the side.
These warriors are,
John is going to just move back towards Percy
because he's currently carrying the reliquary
and wants to protect it.
These two...
I guess they should just try and go as north as possible.
Yeah, I think they're going to try and get round that.
They've just seen what happened to Wagner
and they're just like, oh, by the gods.
10, 15, 20, 25, 13.
Nice.
So they managed to clear, I don't know if this guy does.
They're going to dash.
Ah, good.
Come to my draconic spirit.
Yeah, they're basically going to run underneath the Dracianian.
You can go through it.
You go through.
I'm actually gonna leave,
because it is flying up in the air as well.
Yeah, a little bit.
So it's intangible, just a spirit.
It's what?
Tangible enough in its claws to attack.
This is Herry and Knaar rush up to the north,
running around the wall.
I'm not able to do anything else.
That is the Warriors.
Fergal, Fergill's gotta make his attacks.
Furgle!
Furgle!
Get it, Furgle.
Get it Furgle.
Miss, fucking Furgle.
Miss.
No, hit.
Oh, good.
It's an 18.
Meets, it beats it.
Max damage!
You can rely on Fergill for that.
Fergles didn't go today.
He's redeemed himself.
He's still halfed.
He's weakened them.
He's holding these.
I mean, these two minions,
when they hit they hit hard,
so he's like fending them off.
He's just like, you bastard's.
I'll kill you.
The name of the gods and the Sions!
He's just calling out as he fights.
It is then the beast's turn.
The beast's turn.
The beast.
And they are going to beset themselves on poor furgle.
No.
No.
Group attack.
24.
Yeah.
Furgle is going to take 14 from two of them.
What does that bring him to?
He's still up.
Holy shit.
But he has to see if he gets afflicted by Burnbraith.
Oh, God, yeah.
Oh, BDC 13.
He fails.
Oh.
No, my son, the same thing's gonna happen to me!
And he's just sort of, ugh.
He's like trying to fight these things off.
Like, please, so morning, save me!
That is not funny.
Daisy.
That's just the way it was said.
Oh sorry, Aphelia, there is a minion next to you.
I did, I do apologize.
That's right.
You didn't reckless or anything, did you?
No. 18 to hit.
No.
Doesn't I hit?
Nice.
It's a guy up here.
Okay, so I want to, no, I want to,
bonus action, radiant wings.
Okay.
Oh, nice. Nice.
Perfect.
And then I want to basically...
Wait to see what she moves then.
Yes, I'm going to move quite far, so just let me...
Sure.
I want to go to where Agna dropped the Rale-Cray chest,
pick up the chest, and then use my action to dash
to the Crown Steel Shard near Xanthias with the RELCray chest.
Okay, perfect.
I basically just want to transport this thing and get out.
So, what's your movement when you're flying?
Is it your normal movement?
Okay, so, I can move 30.
10, 15, 20, 25.
You can get the reliquary.
And then I can move 30 feet that way.
So you can go another 30 feet.
So, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30.
So.
So.
So.
So.
Is that still clearing like the top of the wall?
I'm assuming she's flying up and down and then.
I would go up and down and then go over.
Yeah.
Are you up in the air when you get onto the other side?
Do you want to be close to the ground?
No, I'll be on the ground.
Okay, but you have a fly speed.
So basically, I just, I want to say to any of the knights,
I'll get it.
over there.
So morning, he's like, go, Daisy, go, yes, I'm following.
I will complete the ritual with you.
Fergal, hold them back.
You will not yield.
Yes, the morning.
Yeah, so that's my...
Bonus action, move and action.
Yeah, that's it, bonus action move and action.
So the only thing I'm going to say, Daisy, is this thing is so heavy to set it.
When you get there, you have to spend an action to basically, like, open it and set it up.
That's fine.
I just wanted to get it on the right side of the map.
Yeah, you just cleared the entire map.
That's good.
And avoided the firewall as well.
Which I can't do anything about, like,
I can't reposition it or anything because I'm out of fate currently.
All right, Daisy, great turn.
Ophelia.
Yeah, Ophelia is going to strike this minion that is in front of her,
recklessly.
Okay.
Savignal.
Minial.
Oh, you need to roll better than that.
I do, actually, yeah.
You've got so much fate.
You could use fate as well.
You're also keen to roll D-20s.
Oh, that'll make a word.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You should.
People should be using them.
I did!
I'm not looking at you!
That was nine on 90s,
20s, oh.
That's your first attack.
That's your first attack.
That's your first attack.
You're reckless, so you get advantage again.
I'll just turn around and try and strike you,
Yonara.
Okay.
I'm sorry, I can.
Reposition, I would have gone for more below Xanthius
for my 30 feet.
I would have gone a diagonal.
Like further back, yeah.
Or like one more.
I think there would get me 30 feet.
Okay, sure.
I trust you.
on Zane.
When you three to hit Yanaria?
We'll hit.
Amazing.
Right, cool.
So I'm going to spend a bloint because I've been stacking a couple of those with...
Okay, perfect.
Perfect damage.
Don't you need the reach at the moment.
Don't need the reach at the minute, no.
I was going to hope to use it, but I'm going to save that one.
Okay.
And then I'll be using my piercing ability to re-roll.
So I'm going to re-roll that D-8, because I've got five.
We've got loads of eight as well.
Just, we need to start using some.
Cool, so I rolled a five on both of those,
eight, so don't worry about it.
Seven, eight, nine, seven.
Well, above average.
Twelve.
Twelve points, damage to the magic weapon as well.
12, 14, because of my range as well.
14, perfect.
Okay.
Yeah, so that brings us up to that.
So you turn around and strike with Veracity,
kind of plunging it into Unari, who's landed.
You kind of dig into the,
there is like fragments of armor,
You feel like you should bite into flesh or muscle,
but it just doesn't feel like there's anything but energy beyond
that as you kind of plunge it in,
she just turns the hooded shroud towards you.
Anything else on your turn?
That's my turn.
The end of your turn.
It's not going to cost me a fate.
I'm going to use retaliatory strike,
which is a special legendary action you can do
when she's hit in melee to make an attack back.
That is going to be 18.
Doesn't hit.
Oh, no, you recklessly attack.
so I have a drive.
Yeah, well done.
That will hit, 28.
Yeah, that's right.
More points for me.
Yeah, more points.
So that is gonna be 10 points of slashing, half to five,
then 11 radion and fire.
Okay, cool.
So 10, half to five, and then 11.
Perfect.
All right, that was Ophelia's turn.
Rowan, get it.
Rowan is going to mass healing word at fifth level.
Oh, what a big blast.
I'm glad.
Who would you like to infect?
Six creatures, right?
Six creatures, so I want to do everyone around me, bar daisy.
So, Ophelia, so, including the NPCs.
So, Nell, Sir Glory, Grub, Ophelia, Fergal, and then Xanthius, and yourself.
That's the six, right?
One, two, three, four, five, six.
But accept me.
Accept you, okay, all right.
44 plus three.
It's only a little tickle, but I don't know.
Did you class it at level five?
Yeah. It should be more than that.
Oh no, because it's mass healing word.
Mass healing word.
Five, ten, three.
Is he within the remaining crowns deal?
There one next to Daisy.
Five, ten, fifteen, twenty.
He's just out.
Worth a shot.
A little bad.
14 points of healing.
Nice, thank you.
15 points of healing.
Oh wait, you can.
I guess you wouldn't actually know my help.
Oh, I'm in your, I'm in your, thing.
It's a magical saves.
Well, fuck that, but, which reminds me,
the Crown Steel would have been a magical save.
Yeah, would have been.
No. It's not.
I'm gonna save for you as well.
Okay, psychic.
I think it's like specifically you, it's very different.
Because it's an internal thing,
it's not like being protected against.
14 healing, did you say?
Years. I'm just working out whole furgle.
Mechanically, it depends, you can choose this if you want.
I've actually got full HP already.
So if you want to heal yourself, you can.
Thematically, I wouldn't have known that.
Known that.
I can't see behind me.
Fair enough.
You, as this incredible healing magic of Ulthé kind of extends out
and your Pridomagia ruins kind of light up,
again, you just see, you know, are like,
you, you have the taint of the enemy.
You must burn!
As your presence seems to have triggered
some sort of trauma response from her.
However, in that moment,
and you also hear her like,
I can do it!
As Virgil!
I'm not gonna die here!
I'm not gonna let you bastards kill me!
Yes.
Hell yeah, Fulgels ends up being the best of us.
When he gets killed, he doesn't burn anymore.
He's not burning.
Still affected by the burn.
I'm talking up, that's all.
That would require either a check or a different kind of spell.
He's emboldened, but still screaming in pain.
I was just figured.
Yeah, if he, yeah, he's kind of like, oh, but you can't kill me,
oh!
You can't kill me! Oh!
That was a bonus action.
That was your bonus action.
Oh fuck.
I'm going to.
And you got your dragon after this as well.
Face down, Unariol.
Have you taken damage?
You took quite a big hit, didn't you?
Yes.
Dragon spirit is concentration.
Ooh, isn't it?
You took 12 damage in the end.
Yeah, so it would only be DC-10,
but we have to roll for it.
Let's make sure we roll for it.
Yeah, it is concentration.
So it would just be DC-10 Constitution saving throw.
Oh wait, con.
Don't forget.
You could have spent that.
It's 12 so it succeeds, but let's not roll
before we consider fate.
I consider.
Because I'm gonna steal it on my turn.
We have got six.
I'm going to wield stone razor and face down Unariol.
Okay, Unaria.
It's nice.
With faith.
With fate.
And we're six.
It's not gonna help.
It might.
It might.
6, 7, 8, 14?
Not enough, I'm afraid.
The blade strikes against her,
one of her ribbons of energy which deflects it to the side.
I am not afraid of you.
I am afraid of Zanthius.
You're not afraid.
A little, yeah.
Gruff.
That's something that Morris says to us every day.
On a daily basis.
So I'm restrained.
You are action to get out.
action to get out of it.
Another character can try and break you free as well.
Strength save, I think, wasn't it?
Athletics or acrobatics.
It wouldn't affect like my reaction or anything like that.
Technically you have disadvantage on attack rolls
and attacks against you have advantage.
It does not technically stop using a reaction.
No. Okay.
In which case, I will use my action and raise up my paw
with the Void Star ring facing outwards
and I will fire it at, you know, well,
you don't accidentally like,
And I will point it towards you, Naria,
and fire the Void Star Ring.
And I can you make a DC-15 Dex.
Oh.
I fail it, which means I have to use one of my
re-return the flames.
The restraint effect ends on you
and I choose to succeed instead.
All right.
But you are still.
Take half damage.
Take.
Half damage, yeah.
I believe it's radiant damage.
Yep.
So it's halved again.
This is also something I took from the Proto Magi Vault.
That's very true.
It was forged in there.
I'm doing all three charges.
Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen.
Thirteen points of damage.
Thirteen points of damage.
And you very correctly point out that this was forged in a Proto Magi vault.
The Protomagai who fought against Sovereign, long ago,
in the Equinox War, specifically the Protomagai
who had the power to kill gods.
It does not resist that radiant damage.
Yeah.
And strikes.
It's still halfed because she did succeed,
but burns through.
And for the first time you see that dark, almost amethyst light
burn this creature that is made of fire and light itself.
The enemy is returned, the enemy is returned.
My lord, they're back.
They're back. We have to stop them.
Very cool.
Gruff, anything else is your turn?
I'm going to bonus action, cast a healing word.
How does Fergal look?
Furgle is still injured, but he's screaming.
He's fighting through the pain.
He's on top of the world.
I'm going to cast it on myself, actually.
Probably wise.
And I will use a fate to...
Oh, boost the ampute.
Nice.
Yes, use it.
Yeah.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,
nine, ten, eleven, twelve,
twenty two points of healing.
Noise to myself.
Twenty two points of healing to yourself, excellent.
Excellent turn.
Great.
Um, I will still, can I just, well,
Nell is within ten foot of me, isn't it?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Can I just cycle around the crown sh-.
Your, oh no, the restraint, end.
Crown steel shod.
So I'm still within ten foot of Nell and Glory.
but just a little bit closer so I can make a break.
30. You can bring yourself to here.
Yeah, I'll do that. I just want to be 10 foot of both.
Don't. Oh yeah, you go then that way.
Yeah, you have not left, actually, yeah, no, you haven't left reach,
so it does not provoke the opportunity attack.
End of turn.
Zasme.
Zasme.
I do have two points of fate left, which I'm going to immediately spend.
Ooh, yeah.
He'll ask.
On a legendary action.
Unario will look at that wall of flame
and he's going to redirect it.
Redirect?
Yes.
It extinguishes and a new wall.
Can I do my summon dragon attack?
Oh yes, you can do, yeah.
Thank you.
Oh yes.
He will swoop in.
I can't.
I tried.
You tried.
My dragon is going to actually attack
the two mignones fighting fervil.
Nice.
So swoop.
and just go right up behind them.
Yeah, multi-attack on them.
Oh, I really pissed her off.
Yeah, she really doesn't like you.
You're doing too good.
Yeah.
So two attacks and a breath.
Wee-wee?
This is all pre-wall, prall.
Oh, this wall is coming hot.
In an alternate future.
That's so spicy meat, boy.
That is a real spicy one.
It's going diagonally.
It is.
From north-east to south-west.
Well, get that after this dragon turn.
North-east to south-east.
Gruff, this is going to catch you in glory
because of the way the diagonal is going to work on this.
It is not going to hit Nell initially,
but Nell's going to have to very quickly move.
Ophelia, you are also just outside of this, I'm going to say.
It's going to that way.
It's, well, we don't, yeah, I'm going to say it's going to move,
it's moving towards you, Daisy.
That's what I'm rolling, yeah, towards that way.
What do we get on our dragon attacks?
Pretty sure I've missed both times.
What did you get?
to use a fade?
12 is my highest.
Miss?
Yes.
Did you drag a breath as well?
Oh, I've got to make a saving three for that.
Yeah.
Failed.
2D6.
Okay, I could do it.
That's something.
I currently don't have an emulation binding,
so I just fail.
It's also a cone.
Okay.
So can I?
Wow.
Cone eye.
Keep in mind, Yanaria is now currently on the ground
with you guys all around.
No, no.
Yes, the two minions.
Oh, the two minions.
Yeah, I'd say that you can angle it,
like, he can fly up and angle it sort of down,
so it doesn't catch Fergal, I would say.
There's only 2DC.
Oh, to the minions.
Savonio mignon.
Both fail, actually.
Five points of...
Plus, yeah, of just five.
Plus, of what kind?
I should have chosen at the start,
apparently, when summoning the dragon,
so I'll retain what I had before, which was...
I don't think you actually chose...
Lightning.
Lightning damage, okay, with that.
Both of these have been weakened by Fergal,
but five is not enough to finish them off.
But they look pretty weak and it's,
Furgle's gonna have to say.
Come on for a year.
So that was the dragon's turn.
Let's go.
The dragon says, go Furgle.
So that was at the end of Gruff's turn
that I just conjured forth a new wall.
So there's a diagonal wall that is now going
southwest towards Daisy and the final crowns.
And Gruff, so glory, both need to make
dexterity saving throws.
Oh dear.
Oh dear.
19.
You succeed, glory does not.
We need to spend faith.
We need to spend face.
Eight points of fire.
Six points of Radiant, so you would take half,
so 14, so you take seven, Gruff, and glory takes 16.
I now have to make a concentration check for Glory on the prayer.
Who's got turns left?
Me. I'm about to take my turn, I think.
But Fergill's about to.
Ebertie.
Ebertere.
Bucks you up.
Fergel's about to basically throw his sword in such a way
that it hits, not one, not two, not three minions,
but also extinguish the fire.
Extinguish the fire.
And then circles right into Yonari.
Goes right into Yonara's face.
Glory, I'm gonna roll this publicly.
Concentration check, DC will be 10.
Come on, Glory.
She has a plus two.
Okay.
Nine, ten, eleven.
No, okay.
Do you think flame and light to me
anything to a priestess of Pyres and just kind of like holds on channeling the prayer.
As that is summoned, that is at the end, that was at the end of Gruff's turn all that happened.
So morning, it's like, Daisy, I'm coming.
Five, ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty, five, thirty, and then we'll dash to get in range.
Nice, okay, good.
Up to the crown still running around the side of the wall.
But not enough to take the container.
No, so Daisy is currently holding it, and I'm actually holding it,
I had to dash to get there, so he's in position ready
to perform the ritual.
No prayer.
No prayer is no going to.
Percy.
Percy.
Percy!
Percy on his lap.
Percy on his lap, Ron.
Well, now the wall's gone.
Yeah.
He's just gonna circle around like a clock face at this point.
Five, ten, fifteen, twenty.
I'm trying to get up and help Fergal,
but I think he's got enough distance to do so.
Not quite.
Not quite.
You'd have to throw his weapon, yeah.
I'll bet you could dash.
Or throw his weapon.
Wait, does he have reach?
Not even. He's got 10 foot reach. He hasn't got 20 foot of reach, I think.
No. I will have him come closer to the battlefield anyway, 30 feet. Come hither, Percival.
20, 25, 30. He can technically, if he goes...
You can go the other way.
That's over.
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, you can get here.
Yeah, stick him on there. That's huge. Stick him there. Big turn from perfect.
It's the same, it's the same distance, but he's closer to the minions here.
Yeah, it's cool.
Yeah. Can he throw his weapon?
He could do he would be a disadvantage,
but he could throw it at the closest one.
He would then have to retreat.
Go on, my boy.
Yeah, go on then.
It's time for Percy to get that Nat 20.
Now, can Percy spend fate?
He's with us.
He doesn't earn fate.
But Riannon rules it.
Yes, but fate is not about Riannon.
Fate is about your heroes within the universe.
You run the other NPCs.
Yes, because I have to.
I don't have a player character.
Percy's never had fate, so...
I mean, would you go think.
Do you think Percy should be able to spend it?
Should Mateo be able to spend it?
I don't think so.
If Patelio can't spend it, then Percy won't spend it.
Okay.
A player controlled companion.
He's not at 20 king guys.
He's gonna eat.
He doesn't need it.
He doesn't need it.
He is fate.
Watch him get two Nat 20s back to back.
Wait, throwing twice.
It's got disadvantage.
Uh, what is that?
Probably not a 20.
That is a 10, so 13 to hit.
13 does not hit.
Ah, so just, shit.
Yeah, throws it.
Boom, boom, boom, boom.
Wait, it's got a plus seven.
It was an unnatural 20.
Was it really?
Yeah.
Then that will hit.
Oh, wait, you rolled a 13.
No, I rolled a, I rolled a 10.
Oh, you're plus seven.
I've got plus seven.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So 17.
17?
Like, bounces off the floor.
Wait, maths, my brain has been...
He's rolled like ten different numbers.
Yeah, he rolled...
A ten was his highest.
Ten was his highest.
Ten was his lowest, it was his lowest,
so 17 was his total.
Still miss, it's unfortunate.
Just barely, just barely.
As the cortisol kind of just hits the ground a bit too early,
throws it like a javelin, it's a staff,
it doesn't quite work the same.
He's like, ah, that did not work how I was hopping.
Aw.
A nice strike, but that's a nice strike.
I'll tell you what though, I will say that it distracts
one of these creatures enough that maybe it will peel off
to attack him instead of fur.
Yeah, cool.
But we'll see.
Fergal technically gets to go before them, so we'll see.
Zanthius.
Hi there, so my situation is simply just
I can't move away from the Crown Steel, yeah?
I would say, yeah.
Yes.
Which means I will be stuck in its 20 foot radius,
which means I'm locked in at this point.
Until it might be sealed away.
I don't know how Zanthius feels about that.
Yeah, that's a separate question.
But for now, I'm happy for them to seal it away
because my pull is simply within my chest.
It's not overtaken me fully yet.
Yet.
I will hurl a chromatic orb at this creature
who has just done a lot of damage to my allies, Yanaria.
Chromatic orb at level...
Oh my God, I have no spells lots left.
One.
And that's it for now.
That's my safety for now.
Getting down to cancer,
in any way?
I can.
I don't really need to transform it at all.
But also those sorcery points can become new spellslots.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You could do that first as well, don't forget,
because that's a bonus action to do that.
Make it careful so you don't hit them.
What?
Crematical orb.
You're careful on chromatic orb.
This is a sorcerer joke.
Plus eight, yeah, I get it, okay.
You have advantage because of your spell rage.
That's true.
So that's six plus eight.
That's 11 plus eight.
That's 11 plus eight.
Against Yonariah.
against you Narayan.
Just barely hits.
Just barely hits, fantastic.
3D8 and if any of these match, it chains.
Which is interesting, because I've got a play here.
2, 7 and 3.
Okay, I have another sorcery thing.
Empowered spell.
When you roll damage for a spell,
I can spend one sorcery point to re-roll up to four damage dice.
I'll keep the seven.
I'll re-roll the two and the three, okay?
I have to take this thing.
a six and a one, it's better, but still not a double.
So I basically improve my chances to double up my,
I'm like slot machining.
Yeah, ding ding ding!
So it's now 14 of, let's say acid damage
against Unaria.
The spell strikes her, the acid sort of coating parts of body,
but again, very little reaction to pain or to come in.
She's barely been touched.
Is it enhanced by the...
It would be, so I had an extra D8.
Now this won't trigger the chromatic orb, sadly,
but it does add to the damage.
Yes.
Okay, another three.
Okay, it's another three points of damage.
Cran steel empowerment.
What a novel idea?
As I am slowly, even though I have my magical fiery wings,
I'm slowly going to drift downwards and turn slowly to Daisy.
Daisy, we have a problem.
It's pulling me in.
You need to cage it now.
Cage it quick.
Cage it fast.
Do I need to get your way?
End of your turn.
Can I have another wisdom saving through, please?
Daisy, listen close to me,
and then I stop speaking, because I roll up three.
You want to get close to it,
and you don't want...
The end of my turn, and I don't want it.
You don't want it to go away.
You're like, no, no, no, maybe the Crownsler should say
it's helping you, it's helping you in the fight.
They should leave it where it is.
That's the kind of mentality, right?
You're like, maybe it's not a good idea
to take the crown steel away.
Maybe it should stay where it is.
Maybe it looks good where it is,
and it's so pure.
It looks so good.
But yeah, I just stopped speaking,
and almost a veil goes over my face.
Look, Daisy, you've seen this before.
Like, he's looked, Xanthius is looking at that crown steel
and you see the same glimmer in his eyes
that you and Gruff once saw several months ago.
Back down in the Ash Hills.
I think the rest of us can't see.
No, the rest of you do, Gruff is pointing that way.
I think Gruff is currently got a big angel.
There's a big angel, fire.
And a fire and wall.
I'm like directing this too Daisy as well.
I guess that's your turn.
That's my turn.
So Glory.
Completes the ritual on the next piece of crown steel.
Hell yeah.
Two of three.
Two of three.
It's okay, the third one.
We'll have a container.
Well, then that is at the start of her turn.
My belly.
We'll move right.
Zan, did you eat that?
No.
Drop it, drop it.
Borgie, unfortunately, has no spell slots left
because they use them all in the previous fight.
So we'll just move up and try to melee attack this mignon.
First attack hits, second attack misses, unfortunately.
Okay.
I can't see the other side this wall of fire.
How many minions are left?
Just two fighting furgle and one fighting a few.
Three total, two on Fergal, one on earlier.
And this one actually, Segloy finishes off the one.
Nice. Nice.
And the ones by Fergal are very weakened as well.
Yes, heavily weakened.
Mostly by Fragler.
So the Gregory kind of runs off and it's like,
die beast, slams into it.
Dibat.
However, we then begin a brand new round,
and it's Junari's turn.
Oh, several things happen.
Fuck, yeah.
My fate pool is empty.
However, there is only one crown steel currently remaining,
so I only get one crown steel back.
That's not a bad.
one fate point back.
Then...
Fate most crowsy or so.
Nell and Gruff.
Five, ten, ten, fifteen.
I was going that way.
Yes.
Rowan.
Oh, bugger me.
Yeah, I think it's...
Only crossing over, Rowan, isn't it?
No, Gruff and Nell just took it as well.
Oh, yes, you're right.
I will say I did lazily drift down
and I wasn't super high up,
so I'm probably below the firewall now.
Seven points of fire.
It hasn't passed me yet.
Two points of Radiant rolled really bad.
I'll handle out.
Much appreciated there.
You could roll bad more.
Yeah, I'll try, I mean, I'll certainly try.
Thank you.
Right, but this is all at the start of Yonarias turn.
I am then going to use my one-fay point
to radiant reposition, which means Rowan, Nell,
Gruff and Ophelia, I need Constitution saving throws
as she vanishes in a blinding flash of radiant light.
And it's going to appear, over here above the ground steel.
Right next to, well, basically, Daisy Morning and Xanthias.
18. 18 is a success.
10.
10 is a failure, I'm afraid.
19.
19 is a success.
So Rowan and Ophelia, you both would take three points of radiant damage,
seven points of radiant damage to Gruff, and you are dazed gruff.
Oh, yeah.
So move, bonus action, or action.
not all three, and you can't take reactions
until the start of your next turn.
There's no dazed here.
It's not, it's a condition that I've used.
It's a custom one that I've used.
Well, it's not just me, like MCDM and a few others use it as well.
Sorry, could you say again what you can't do?
You can only do one action, move, or bonus action,
and you can't take reactions until the start of your next turn.
Okay, thank you.
So you get one thing you can do on your turn and no reaction, basically.
Like anti-haste, or slow.
Then, Yanari's turn,
It's three attacks against Morning, Daisy and Xanthius.
A bugger.
Let's do, go round Zanthius to Mourg.
21 to hit Xanthus.
Oh, unshieldable 21 as well.
Daisy, 18.
Yes.
Hits, and then so Morning 19.
Does still hit him, unfortunately.
You will need to tell me what is radiant though.
Yes, I will do, I will split it all out.
So I'll do separate damage trolls for everybody.
So Daisy, it is gonna be 12 slashing,
three radiance, so half to one, and then three, fire.
So.
60, you need to know fire.
Yes, I believe so.
And then Xanthia, same thing but for fire.
Yeah.
So it's gonna be 12 points of slashing,
four points of fire, so half to two, and then two radiant.
Okay, so yes, yeah, yeah, yeah, 60.
And so morning, it's just gonna take the full amount.
Ouchy.
Oh, I need to do a concentration
on circle of power as well.
Which I would be DC 10,
because I don't think you took that much.
I got 10.
Perfect, success.
And then there is only the one crown steel.
Actually.
I will attempt to, actually no, I have no fate to use it.
I'm so hungry for yummy fate, can't get it.
So that is gonna be the end of Yanari's turn,
which means this is time.
Spurgel!
Come on, Fergal!
Not just Fergal!
Who's still alive?
In fact, the...
There's two there.
Knaar and Herry are gonna charge in as well.
Against the two final minions.
The last of them, come on!
Nell is also free, and will...
Can't really do much because this wall of fire
and is a bit too far away.
They've got a fine foot on this side, the western side.
Can't quite make it to the minions.
Make it into the middle, and will just take the dodge action
for now, but I think we'll know.
Let's do the other.
We do- This news are over here.
John is basically, because he's got that burn bright,
and he's holding the reliquary.
He's like basically, he's like, thing.
So I actually, that's a good point.
So Nell has the other one,
Nell will move back here and basically take cover.
Nice.
They're basically protecting themselves as much as they can.
You know what they're doing.
Now, here's a question.
Do you want me to do Fergal first or last?
Furgal?
Last.
No.
I want it.
I want Furgle to get the kills.
I don't want the...
That's true.
I don't want the minions to be dead.
I mean, they're weakened, but are they weakened enough?
Furgle deserves the kills.
He's got two nets in the middle.
Middle, so one of them goes.
One go.
Okay.
Kenar.
First attack, misses.
Second attack, misses.
Okay, maybe Furgle goes last.
Okay, sure.
Harry, first attack.
These two are the useless to.
Hits the first attack, right?
Second attack is a natural 20.
Oh!
This is a natural 20.
This is Harry.
First attack.
It's not a lot of damage.
It's gonna be five points of damage.
Okay.
And not 20 is against the other one.
Weakening him enough?
Yeah? If you want it to be that way.
Sure.
So we're ready to 10.
Because I know Fergal's got two hits in him.
15, half to seven.
Come on, Fergal.
It weakens them but they're both of them are still up.
Come on, Furgle has to hit twice.
Hey, can you just both?
You roll to the side of the DM screen now.
Over here?
Right here.
Fergal, come on.
First attack.
11 plus 5 is 16 is a miss.
Furgle!
Plus 5 is 20 is a hit.
Fergal!
Can you finish at least one of them off?
Four plus two, six, three points of damage.
Is enough to kill one.
Yeah!
Bastard! He finishes off one.
But one still remains.
You're the best around.
Something will bring you down.
I'm absolutely gonna bring you down.
The final beast, though.
He's gonna try and finish Fergal off.
How much health has Fergal got?
Fergal currently has.
He has taken, with all the healing and things like that,
he has, he is bloodied, I'll tell you.
Oh God, okay.
It's gonna be a hit.
They do hit hard as well.
There are only one left.
If they hit hard when there's lots of him.
He takes seven points of damage.
He's still up.
Yes.
Still up.
He's injured, but he's up.
He's like, is that the best you've got, you crowdfallen scum?
I hear that well.
Yes.
After that, it is Daisy.
Okay.
This rolling wall of fire is rolling towards you,
but you have Yanaria in front of you.
You are also carrying the reliquary,
and you have a Xanthias.
I put the reliquary on the ground.
Okay.
Means that the morning's going to have to open it as an action.
I'm looking, but I'm...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no, no, no, this is not a judgment.
This is more like just a reminder of the states.
Also, because if this guy sees what he's about to do
or what he's thinking of doing, then that's terrible.
You have a fly speed, don't you?
Yeah.
Yeah, okay, because I was going to say I'm like still 15 feet up.
Well, yeah, okay.
No, but that you have a fly speed means you can still get to me, yeah.
Do I still have my whispers up?
You could do?
I'd say you'd have to reestablish, though.
I think, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm kind of charge to say that I had...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Can I have...
I guess it's up to you if you let me preemptively
do a group chat with everyone except Xanthias in it.
You could do that now.
So I'm going to do the group chat with everyone but Xanthius.
Are you going to fly up before you do this?
Uh...
Are you going to do it from the ground where you currently are?
I'm going to...
Start the group chat first and just say.
Can you, before you do that,
can you make an Arcana check with advantage for me please?
Oh.
Oh, might not be super high.
Something about this wall.
Natural toy.
Natural twang.
Shit.
Nim, as you're sort of about to try and reach out
and ask Nim to connect, Nim will warn you.
Little one, there's something about this wall.
I think it will block my energy.
we need to get above it.
Okay, fly above it.
Fly up it and then use your action.
Then I'll use that.
Yeah.
Just stand next to me, I guess.
So with that natural 20, by the way,
the other thing I will tell you, Daisy,
because you'll, you know, this is the first time,
you believe that spells and magic cannot pass through the wall.
It blocks the spells.
Oh, okay.
Shit.
Xanthius is not in this call.
I'm just on the tables and like,
Cynthia's not in the call.
I'm about it.
I'm okay.
No, it depends on certain type of magic.
It stops magic passing through it.
So if you have spells that can go around it, that's different.
We can't curve off on it.
Can I, so in the group chat.
Mm-hmm.
I'm gonna say, gruff, he can't be here.
It's taken him.
He wants the shard.
I have to, I have to get my over here.
just because I want the group to know.
Sure.
I'd say that's probably all you can get in a turn.
Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure.
And I'm going to reach my hands out to Xanthias
and say, are you willing to trust me?
Please.
So this isn't take the shard away from me, is it?
Like, do I, how am I?
Because I know.
Tom, I trust you enough to handle this with the narrative
and dramatic.
elements that I think would make for a real story.
I know what she wants to do.
And I know it's to take me away from here.
I don't know how she's going to take me away from here.
Like, just drag me away.
Probably won't succeed.
It sounds like you don't trust them.
But it's up to you.
It's your call.
It's your character.
You've got a lot of stuff on you.
You know the conditions that you're currently under.
And it's...
I can't get away from it.
I want to get closer to it.
You want to get closer to it, and you think it's a bad idea to take it away.
Like, you think it will help you.
You think actually you should keep it here.
And it's not so specific where it's like, don't take the crowns to get away, but take me away.
And that's okay.
You know the meaning of it.
I want it.
You want it, yeah.
There is a part of you that is hungering and craving it.
You can almost feel almost like salivating at the thought of a meal.
I think I would not take your hand.
but actively be just slowly,
almost not pushing past you,
but my eyes are fixed on this thing,
that you are not even in the way.
It's just I'm going towards it,
and I'm like going through you to get to this thing.
Like, I don't even hear you.
I like that.
I like the fact that, like you say this,
but Xanthos just doesn't hear you.
I'm sorry, I have to try.
I'm gonna wrap my arms around him
and try and dimension Dora's 200 feet that way.
Yeah.
No.
Oh, you have to be a willing creature, don't you?
Yeah.
Yeah, but I'll tell you what, I think it's cool.
It's just gonna be like,
your fiery wings, my angelic wings, and I'm just to-
Yeah, that's cool.
It's very cool, I like this.
I really like it.
I think this is a let the dice decide.
I would like you both, well, here's the thing.
I think you both roll a D20.
And if Daisy scores higher,
there is enough of Xanthius to basically let the spell happen.
And if Xanthius rolls higher,
there is enough of crown steel and sovereign resisting
to prevent the dimension door.
Because I think it should come down to a dramatic role.
Great.
You may also bring one willing creature.
Yeah, it doesn't say anything about actively resisting.
I'm going to narratively flare this one.
Yeah, this is my mind.
Because it's clear, like, we know that Xanthian doesn't want the crown still.
We know that, but he's been taken over by this super natural corruption.
This is a role to see, am I willing or not?
Is there a part of you strong enough to like break through, basically?
And I don't want this to just feel wisdom, same theory,
because I know you're not good at those.
But that's the thing is,
I think if you and Daisy just both roll flat roll a D20
and whoever gets higher here is the power.
I'm willing.
If I roll higher, I'm...
Something is resistant.
What are you using there?
I'm going to use the Crown still dice.
Of course, you'll like.
But isn't this the moment
where the Crown's still dice gets a 20?
But I think this way, it's nobody's fault.
This is just fate.
Let's roll at the same time.
Roll at the same time?
All right, go for it.
Three.
Three.
Three, okay, get the Percy pigs out of way.
Three, two, one, go.
Oh, wow, oh my God, you got an ape, I got a four.
Oh my God, they were low.
They were so low.
The wings wrap round.
I think like the angelic wings wrap around you.
And almost where the draconic wings,
you know, they've got crackles of flame
and the bronze sigils and things like that.
As the two merge, there is a voice in you, Xanthias,
it's like, no, I don't wanna go,
No, I don't want to go.
And then Nim, always almost like, be silent.
You are not him.
You will not have him.
Go, Daisy, as you feel.
You feel the power as that sovereign voice
is silenced by this celestial spirit
as the two of them vanished 200 feet away.
Holy shit, 200 feet away.
Sorry, I know you were flying and I didn't know you
wide speeds.
You saved him.
Yeah, you saved him.
Because I thought if you dashed back, you would.
Yeah.
I think that Sir Morning is confused, but believes you guys to be heroes.
And it's like, this must be some sort of tactic or something.
I don't understand.
But the two of you vanish and teleport away.
Sorry.
Daisy.
And then when I think when I get to the point, I will in,
because I'm still within a mile, I'll say,
I had to take him away.
I'll come back.
but he's like 200 feet from you.
Please get to the last reliquary.
They need help.
Zanthius, as soon as you're that distance away,
you do feel that sort of...
The hold is released.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm sorry.
I think there is an initial, like,
I will push Daisy away aggressively.
Is this like we always see, like,
the rage kind of...
Yeah.
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
Oh, Daisy, you saved me.
Oh, I thought you were going to hurt me.
Oh, close, thank you, thank you.
You need to get back there, you need to get that.
I'm going, I'm going!
Right, that is Daisy's turn.
And then do I still have, I guess I still have move.
Yeah?
So I will.
You've used like bonus action, right?
I've used bonus action.
Action.
So yeah.
Yeah, so I will just move 30 feet.
Okay.
To, I'm going towards it again.
170 feet back.
Hell yeah.
Sorry.
No, that's unkey-based.
This is exactly what's great for it because I can keep track of this.
At least I can dash.
But it does mean a fewer targets on the belt.
Yeah.
Ophelia, you're up.
Cool.
Yeah, Aphelia is going to, can I misty step 30 feet up over the, so I can see over the firewall?
You want to go three feet directly up?
Yes, you will fall.
That's fine.
Okay.
Okay.
Here we go for the most.
Riannon turn there is.
Well, no, she's going to fall in a minute.
And then while I'm up, I want to use my crimson arts to make Veracity a throne weapon.
Oh.
Veracity at an aria.
You can do it twice as well,
because you can, as you're in the air, basically.
Fum, fum.
And I got, I get vex on her because I hit her last turn.
Yeah, so make your two attacks.
Oh, this is cool, above the wall.
Like, fom, fom, fom, fom.
Almost like turning veracity into like a blood spear
and throwing it forward.
26 on the first stroke.
Hit.
Cool, and then I'm going to re-roll my D-8
with my piercing ability.
You can also add a blood point again
if you want to add extra damage
because it's a different effect.
So that is a 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 on the first strike.
15 points of damage on the first strike.
The blood spear slams into her shoulder,
kind of sending her thudding forwards.
Second strike, with advantage.
Shit, this might not be quite as good.
What is that? Oh, wait, that's an act 20.
Yes!
Okay, so...
That's cool as hell.
That is very cool.
D8 maxed.
So eight.
And then plus five.
and a two.
So seven, so 15 currently.
15, and then roll again.
8 plus 7, 5, 15.
Plus 2.
No, it's already, do you go to the plus 2?
So you're at 15 currently.
15.
And then do you want to bloint?
And then you're going to blight.
So D6, yeah.
So D8 and a D6 now.
Yeah, come back.
A six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve,
13.
Another 13.
Fuck.
That's 34 points of damage total.
Oh, three.
Nice.
Blood spears raining down over a bright storm is the cooling shit.
You teleport 30 feet up.
You kind of swipe Veracity through the air
and it leaves these like crimson crescent arcs
that slice into the ribbon like wings
and then you fall and plummet down to the ground.
Superhero landing?
Let's find out.
Come on.
It is 12 points of bludgeoning, half to six,
because you're raging.
And then give me an acrobatics check to see if you like,
call brain.
Yeah, sure.
Yeah!
Sure.
20.
Superhero landing, you do not fall prone.
You take the damage, you take the six points of damage,
but you slam into the ground.
It hurts.
Amazing.
And don't forget, sound this out, Daisy, good job.
Rowan, followed by Gruff.
Rowan's gonna run over to Gruff.
Okay.
I'm pleased.
Half giant heart.
Gonna grab you.
Oh God.
Now here we go.
And dimension door you.
Oh.
I'm unwilling.
No.
This side.
I'm willing.
Are you ready to face?
Okay.
They're badgy.
Just get me a word here.
Now because it's a teleport
and you're not technically passing through the wall,
it does function.
Good, good.
So you place Gruffin yourself where you would like.
I would like to place us.
us here.
Because we have to be next to each other, right?
So here is next to the crown steel show.
Next to the crown steel.
Next to your Nauri.
Within melee range of Unariel.
Anything else for your turn?
That's your moving action.
Nauria.
Bonus action, I'm going to healing word myself.
Technically you can't spell, so you can't hear them word.
Very well, then I will not do that.
and Bardic.
I'll Bardic inspire Gruffeth.
There you go, Bartik inspiration with a Gruff.
We have a D8 to add two attacks.
It's Gruff's turn.
That's just a giant hug.
It's the buck.
It's a dragon.
Oh, it's dragon time.
There's one lack.
Dragon boy gonna nom that mignon.
Sure, flies over.
Fergal and the others look up.
A dragon, a dragon has come.
No mother.
Chomp's his head.
It's just another knight.
All right.
Oh, you want me to do the attack?
Yep.
Yeah, this thing's quite speedy, you might miss.
14.
Misses, it gets two attacks.
A attack.
Natural 20.
Oh yeah.
He's so dead.
This one was already weakened.
The dragon just bites this thing in half.
You just see Fergal, Kinar and Harry, just like, yeah.
Can the dragon?
Yes.
Have you used a bit of its movements to get at here?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The rest, can it turn a breath weapon, um,
Unaria?
So is it gonna fly?
above the wall and like point down yes but again it's a cone how far is the
cone 30 oh 30 it's gonna hit all of you guys if you do that and if you just
backed up so you're the edge of the 30 foot was but then if there's any risk it
went I see Trin your risk okay but it can position itself for next time yes okay
just there now okay perfect that's my dragon then it is gruff
yeah now that I'm over here you are still dazed yeah I'm going to
Once again, whistle and sarin will appear,
pierce the sky, and a lightning bolt will come down.
Great.
On Uniaria.
On Unuaria, decks 16.
Should probably pass.
Man, for somebody who has got such a high decks bonus,
I have rolled dog shit on every deck saying through that.
It's a failure, 14.
Oh, okay.
Do I get an empowerment from the crown steel shard as well?
Oh, you do.
Yeah, still currently active.
That was a DA, wasn't it?
I do not have fate.
I saw Bardock as well.
Does Bardock do anything?
You can't add Bartick to damage.
I rolled...
Oh, I rolled really well.
Nine plus eight is 17.
18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 28, 29, 29, 30 points of lightning.
Wow, wee.
That's good.
Nice.
Holy crap.
There is still one crown seal shard, but I don't have any emulation binding, so I can't
do anything about that.
So yeah, just this bolt of lightning
arcs down from the sky
slams into Unaria
whose wings kind of stretch and
remains hovering in the air,
smoldering, smoking the robes,
black and burnt and stained,
just hovering there.
That's creepy.
Is that your turn gruff?
That was your action, you are dazed, so.
I will simply erase a pore.
and gesture.
Can't match me.
You are no longer dazed at the end of your turn.
It is not your turn, however.
Can we drop one-handed clap with his paw?
It's furry, so that might dampenet.
He's got pads.
No?
So morning's time.
So morning.
Now, unfortunately, because Daisy had run,
he has to set the reliquary up.
That is his action.
That's fine. That's all he can do.
I think there is an order of priority here.
Percy.
Percy, the boy!
There are no more minions.
No more minions.
I guess he'll get him.
He'll go and pick up his staff.
His staff.
He's gonna flash, he'd be sweated.
He can close to inferior.
Sure, so he was here.
Yeah.
So he can go five, ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty, twenty five, thirt.
Yeah.
So close.
Just for Phelia, I do not feel like I'm doing much in this back.
He's fine.
You're staying alive.
That's all that matters, Pursu.
But my life is in service.
is in service.
My undeth, my undeth is in service of the great father.
All right, that is Percy's turn.
Where do you start the fight?
Zanthius.
Over at the corner and he's just gone.
He's done a lot.
He's done like a lot.
He's done about 40 meters from where he started, 40 feet.
Zanthius.
Zanthius, 200 feet away that you did the full.
Yeah, I did.
Well, the full is 500 feet.
So, I know, I restricted it so that we could get back.
We needed to and I thought that might be enough.
Have you already?
I'm 30 feet away from you.
Yeah. Oh, in that case.
Well, I could just go, stay there.
If you need to stay there, just stay there.
No, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
I'm gonna come closer and I wanna go back.
Okay, well, I'm gonna do 30 feet towards Daisy.
Uh-huh.
I do still have a fifth level spell.
You'll be happy to know, because if I resisted that,
holy shit, I've been holding onto a fifth level for reasons.
So have I.
I am instead going to cast haste on you, Daisy.
Yay!
So you basically can double, like,
Double your speed, you get two attacks.
More AC, more attacks, advantage on deck saves,
additional action on your turn.
You can basically zoom in that.
Well, I could have got 90 feet back in one turn.
Now it's gonna be like 180 feet.
But like I'm going to infuse your wings
with runes and energies to basically-
The bronze dragon runes.
Nice.
You had a question?
My dragon's dazed.
It means it could have only made the attack action,
but it's just not moved.
It's just, it just, it's not much.
I will, for flavor, before I zoom away from Xanthias,
give him a big hug.
Okay.
Zanthia's break your name.
That's a bonus, actually.
As long as this hug doesn't last more than six seconds,
Daisy, get out of here.
Okay, love you, bye!
All right, that's your turn, Xanthius,
you're happy with that?
Yeah, okay.
She steals your wallet as well.
That's my fault.
Daisy.
It's what he deserved.
So, Gory.
I only have seven silver on me.
So glory is looking like,
this wall of flame, we,
It cannot stay to read.
I have to get to the others.
Oh no.
Living up to her name.
Is it boring?
Five, ten, fifteen, twenty.
You're doing.
Oh, breaching the wall.
It's gonna get burnt again.
It runs through.
Oh my God.
I can damage at never point.
Seven, fire damage.
10, radiance.
17.
Ouchies.
That's a lot.
And then we'll dash.
5, 10, 15, 20, 25.
And come help some morning.
Morning, I'm here.
I just complete this together.
We must seal this away.
That is the end of the round.
We begin a brand new round.
Oh, my pool of fate.
Oh, I wanna get one.
I would get one, but if one is more than enough.
For the wall, 20 feet again?
Yes.
So 10, 50, 20.
Right on us.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So some of it's gonna be completely down.
Like there?
Crossing over.
Pretty much everybody.
Yeah, everyone.
And then that will.
Yeah, it completes.
Yeah, we'll just leave it there for now.
All right, perfectly.
So that is everybody.
And as it passes over you, you will take six points of fire,
six points of radiant.
So 12 total.
Not.
Glories.
So the, and he wasn't currently concentrating on the thing, was he?
No, not yet.
It was just morning.
Not yet.
No, no.
So the morning isn't currently concentrating on it, no.
That is just at the beginning of Yanari's turn.
Yeah.
Then she is just going to make a series of attacks.
Just lash out at everybody around it, really.
So how many targets have I got there for currently?
Sorry, morning hasn't started the ritual.
No, just opened the ball.
No, he's just opened the reliquary.
Neither of them have started yet.
So I've only got three attacks.
How do I work?
I think because Glory's only just arrived.
which she's already in the process of attacking Morning,
Rowan and Gruffeth, I think, here.
So against her mourning.
16 is a miss.
I love the idea that he almost uses the reliquary box
as like a shield against the attack.
Rowan, 14, he's a miss as well.
Terrible here.
That is gonna be 19 against Gruff.
A miss.
Just in this kind of lashing out of rage
as these three strikes kind of fall upon you.
Give it up, big lady.
Yeah, I think she's annoyed.
Yes, yes, that will do.
I'll miss for now, the Warriors.
Here they come.
Oh, here they come.
One, five, ten, five, five,
Harry, to us.
Connarr.
So with a little bit of difficult to rain,
they can only just get there.
Three warriors, charging it.
charging it.
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da.
Do-d-d-do-d-do-d-do-d-doo.
Not enough to get anywhere in range to really do anything with the difficult terrain and everything,
and using their movement to get up.
But they were there.
They are there.
They are present.
No more mignon.
Daisy, your turn.
So, I'm just trying to work this out.
I'm 170 feet away.
So, your movement is doubled.
So you would move 60 feet with a base move.
Then you could move 60 feet again as a dash.
And then you could dash again as a bonus action.
So you can go 180 feet.
I want to go 120.
Okay.
And take a shot because I'm within range
to take a shot with my tire healing.
For the sake of keeping you on the map,
can I put you on like the edge of the map?
Because you actually went 200 feet
from quite back into the map anyway.
So I think if you go 120 feet,
we'll put you,
We'll put you on the edge.
And I want to take...
So I'd say like maybe here,
like you're on like the edge here.
And I will...
So yeah, because you could move...
Yeah, yeah.
Like move double, bonus action dash,
and then you would still have your action,
and you get two attacks because of the haste.
Two actions.
So I want to shoot...
Yeah.
With parheelian.
Yeah, absolutely.
That's 20 to hit.
20 will hit.
How far does you travel?
200.
120 back now, yeah.
120 feet in six seconds.
Oh yeah, that's like sound barrier.
Yeah, probably.
That's like Mac 5 or something.
Yeah.
The magic is like protecting her, right?
So it's kind of like the magic is shielding her
and then just you're seeing like the air rippling around her.
The height is you can see Xantheus is just...
So it was 28.
Damage.
Nice.
Then I get another thing.
Another attack.
You feel what he feels.
Yeah, you don't get sneak attack on this extra attack.
Uh, 21 hit.
No, I get advantage because of Vex.
No, I didn't get an ant.
Yeah, but it hits.
Yep, hits.
No sneak attack, but normal damage.
Seven.
Another seven points.
The arrows, phew-thum, crack pieces of the armor.
But there's no screaming, there's no sobbing, no anything.
The creature is just silent, as Yonaria.
seems almost disassociated from what's happening,
just lashing out randomly with these ribbons of light.
Something is happening.
Oh, phase two.
Oh, fuck.
So Daisy, that was your turn?
Yep. Ophelia.
Yeah, Ophelia's gonna move forward towards Yanaria.
5.10, 15, 20, 25.
I mean, you've got 50 feet, but you're fine.
I'm gonna reckless attack.
Ooh.
Reckless.
Deliver us.
These dice are like twinned at the hip, as crazy.
Two-19s.
26.
Wait, don't you have the...
I don't have in heart, I don't have brutal critical.
Not yet.
Not yet.
Critical, critical.
Not yet.
That's a hit.
So that is a hit.
D8 plus five, and I would like to use a bloint.
Nice.
Cool.
Come back, you.
You can't rerol them because of the piercer.
for the D8.
So that is 10, 11 to 15, 17 on the first strike.
17.
And the second strike with Vex for advantage.
One and two.
We got it, dice give and the dice take away.
You watch as Aphelia runs up behind Unaria
and plunges Veracity in the back,
almost taking advantage of the fact
this creature doesn't even seem to be fully present right now.
And you watch as the armor cracks around the breastplate,
the cracks like golden lights spilling out of them spread all through the armor,
and the ribbon-like wings fall.
The creature kind of slumps to the ground.
The light beginning to dim.
No. No, it's not time.
It's not my time.
Please.
Please no. Don't make me like them.
Please. Please. Please.
As their body erupts and explodes with fiery light,
as their body is almost consumed by something within,
as a very different voice emerges.
As Yanaria the emissary becomes Yanaria the embered.
and rises up.
Fuck.
Excuse me.
Oh my God.
And it's like, well,
looks great again.
Looks just...
The armor is still cracked.
Oh, okay.
But now from those cracks,
fire and light is just streaming out of them.
There is this inhuman scream.
As the wings grow and flare brighter,
the ribbons of light transforming.
into a series of shard-like swords
that fly around her,
swarming around her body.
Holy shit.
Oh my God, face two!
Face two?
I'm so far away and I have no spells lost left.
We'll have to wait for next time
as that is the end of today's episode.
I did tell you it was a boss fight.
Christ.
But we were doing a boss fight.
Well, you were doing a lovely,
stopping all the minions and crown steel.
I don't think I've quite had my fun yet.
Unfortunately, no, Yanaria the Embed
as the power of sovereign,
as you defeat the creature, you defeat whatever remained
of this once celestial spirit,
that is now gone, and sovereign's power
has refilled it with life,
but at what cost?
Much like what happened to several of the gods
long, long ago,
it seems that Yanaria has been
reborn more full of rage and malice than ever before.
And that is, yeah, well we're gonna bring the episode to an end.
Oh, hell, hell yeah.
I will say, just to keep it at benefit,
like I said, the armor is all cracked.
The body does not seem as fast or as agile.
So perhaps easier to hit, but I have to see.
Yeah.
Yeah, sure.
Sure.
All right.
Nice.
That will end things there.
We will see you next time.
Join us for another episode of High Rollers
Offair the Dragon Empire,
as perhaps this final little battle can be brought to an end.
And we'll see you next time.
Take care. Bye bye.
See you next time.
