Welcome to Legends of Aventress.
I'm Felix Ackerman and you're listening to Beneath Dark Wings.
Here's what happened last time.
Burn it to the ground.
Break the chains with holy fire.
But I hope the next time we meet,
it is amidst the ashes of our oppressors.
As you see, a number of bundles appear.
Were you looking for me or just any genie?
They need one more.
They have six.
All air, genocene.
Wind.
Storm. And she's one of them?
She has blood. They decide if it is one of seven. I want to eat. They promise us food.
They want to bring storms. You will not kill me.
But you have to promise that you'll work with us and you won't abandon us when we need you. We need to get to the top.
We need to burn down this incursion.
Food. Safety. Gold. Thighs.
You are looking for Gaboro.
He has the ability to give people fake identities and make them look different.
Like they're higherborn.
Why do you bring this filth into my shop?
We have something you may have an interesting.
This is a creature of air.
Don't you recognize a genie when you see one?
I will give you one of my famous little rings.
You appear.
Highborn, noble. I think there's no place to go, but out here in this city.
Are you excited? Do you seem excited?
I am. I mean, I don't care who knows it. This is going to be a hoot.
We're all standing as these noble-looking,
All-era-Cocraft, are distributing all of your various rings. And not having time to really
look at your papers, you all look at each other, and there's almost like this magical
connection that you have that you're able to tell who is who. And as all of the, as all of the
individuals of the lower class, Eric Okra, look around and their eyes are widening as they look
at you in a scurry past, they then try not to make eye contact as they see this group of bickering
nobles. Even the guards in this town seem to try to avoid you. And you are all standing and you
are wearing these rings and I guess we can kind of see what you all look like
and you all look like a certain kind of owl and so we have first Felix
yes oh I am noble as fuck oh my god I'm so excited oh my god very noble and if for all of you
what type of owl that is a common scops owl oh you're common
Fuck all of you.
It's the coolest looking one though.
Of all the scops, they-
I can't wait to see how crunchy I look.
This is Caprice.
Oh yeah.
For those that enjoy,
that's majestic.
He's majestic.
What type of owl?
This is an eastern screech owl.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, that's so, he would be a screech owl.
That's an eastern screech owl.
No, is this episode is gonna be a hoot.
There we go.
This is, uh, herja.
Oh, how?
You're headwig.
You're beautiful.
This is a snowy owl.
Let's get that up there.
I like that.
Oh, my goodness.
Not bad.
Not bad.
I like it.
She's beautiful.
Very wise looking.
This is.
This is Lifty.
Oh my gosh.
That is it.
That is a year old owl.
For those who are care.
That's so good.
I look a dirt.
I love it.
This is Iris.
You know,
Why is he saving toe for last?
That is a pharaoh eagle owl.
Whoa.
And you can actually see it standing on one of the pyramids.
Oh, yeah, that's a pyramid.
That is too thematic.
And then this is Toa.
And he is a Pueo.
That's pretty cool.
And he's, I can see that.
Pueo.
Pueo, it's in Hawaiian owl.
Oh, can tell me.
And then you also see that Zorbach and Hart also have these shapes.
have these shapes.
And so heart, like it passes around, is a pigmy owl.
Yeah.
Oh, geez.
I don't kiss.
We'll pass this around.
And then Zorbeck is a long-eared owl.
Yes.
Oh, that's cute.
He's a big boy.
It's all the girl.
I'll pass that around.
I'm so excited.
This one was very surprised.
So, and as you all settle in,
and these rings are, you're settling in,
these Erakokron forms, you all start talking to each other and you realize that you're switching
from common to Orrin as you all gain the ability to speak and understand Orrin.
And you also then start to feel something kind of strange overcome you and however we're
going to all need to make a wisdom saving throw.
Oh fuck. Oh, fuck.
What a great start.
I'm rolling a worm with a ghost from. As am I.
I too.
Is it wisdom saved?
20 to 25.
Oh, that's not hot.
Winding some savings?
Shit.
Oh, that's not hot.
22.
22.
So 20 to 25?
14.
Oh, sorry.
15 to 20?
15.
That's not the question.
Caprice is 15.
Okay.
10 to 15.
13.
Comey, guys.
Warm it up in here.
14.
13.
Toh and Felix, what do you get?
7.4.
You guys earned it.
You guys earned it.
So, Lifting, I mean, I know, Iris, I need you to roll a D6
for me. Oh no. Why? A six.
Nice. Six.
All your... So as did the...
You feel not only do you look like a noble, you start to feel like an...
I have a noble, but you start to feel like an Aricotrican noble.
You have an irresistible need to hoot every three words you speak to showcase your proud owl hand.
Caprice.
Roll D6, please.
Three words, huh?
Four. Four. That's a good number.
You have an iriscible.
desire for carnal pleasure.
It does.
He's a kind of barred.
Uh, okay, we need a Herja to roll a D6, please.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Hey, why are you guys acting here?
I'm perfectly normal.
I roll a three.
Three.
You are sensitive and hear veiled insults in most words addressed to you,
and you are quitched to anger.
Oh no.
You need to be like reading.
T6.
Maw no.
Mufty.
D6.
Six.
Six.
Six, roll again.
Oh.
Four.
Roll again.
Yeah, roll again.
I've got four or three times now.
Five.
Five.
You were obsessed with coins, jewels, and other symbols of wealth.
He's now Iris.
Felix.
Felix, you're the last one to roll?
Yeah, there's only one.
One of the two left.
So, just one and two.
You can roll one or two.
I'll do even an odd.
Yeah.
Odd for one, even for two.
Odd.
So one.
One, you feel an explicit disdain for everyone you perceive to be a lower class than you.
That's horrible.
Oh, no.
Okay, and then, uh, Toa, you're last.
Why are all of these just iris?
Yeah.
You're not even though people.
You're incredibly paranoid about a scandal of the secret that can ruin your family forever.
What the secret is?
Nope.
So just to recap, I constantly hear insults, like, in the back of my mind and I'm quick to anger?
Yes.
Okay.
Not like in the back of your mind, the things people say something to you, you're like, you're like, what did you mean by that?
Oh, gosh, thank you, quite.
Okay.
Did you mean something by that?
Like, why would you, why would you say that like that?
Got it.
Yeah, my got you at you.
Do our papers have names in them?
So, that was the one getting to next.
Oh, shit.
Is that so, uh, Hart is looking at her paper.
and she says, well, I guess I'm Fidoria
Fritzelweiss. And then Zorbeck looks and he says,
oh, I'm Phaeofrastus bombastus.
And so you all read noble names
of whichever you would like to be.
Oh. Oh.
Yeah. Oh, wow. That's a lot of pressure.
I'm reusing my name.
Albert Sunshot, Power Bottom, Benevick.
Powerbottom the third, whatever was.
Okay.
What was Nurt's name?
Mert's name is Freedoria Fritzelweiss.
Free Doria.
Free Doria.
Frizzlewis.
I don't know.
And then remind me of the other dude, Zorbeck.
D.
Zorbeck is Pfeophrasis bombastus.
Fiofrasus.
Bambastus.
Nah, I, I, I, maybe.
Thank you.
Oh, do you have a pen or penciler
or anything ever they're rich pretty chance?
You can borrow mine.
Cool.
Oh, you mean mine?
Oh, yeah, yours.
The one I'm using.
Let's see.
As you all think, I'm going to go find there.
So just for background, we all kind of got false identities as these Eric Coker,
these Owl-Earoccur and nobles.
So I'm this cute little guy, and I'm going to be, I don't think of the last name.
Shit, this is hard.
This is hard.
I'm just going by feather.

Yay.
Got it.
Yeah.

Well, I noticed that when I'm looking at my papers here,
the name is kind of scratched out, and I can't understand.
So I'm just going to go with Albert Sunshot Benedict Power Bottom the Third, like we used when we were in Skyreach.
Did you have been in the...
Albert?
You could.
Albert.
Did we see?
Oh, well, there we go.
That's Toa's name.
Albert.
So a power bottom is your last name?
The third.
Well, I guess that's a title.
So yeah, Powerbottom would be my last name.
Albert Benedict Powerbottom?
Albert Sunshot, Sunshot Benedict Powerbottom the third.
So you're Albert, but you're not going to go with a bert?

Chequilaria.
I'm just going to go out with my.
No one just said missed opportunity for Bella Strix.
That's a really good one.
I was looking at Beatrice, but that's the bird name.
Yeah, sorry.
What was the last name of Herzia, Mikey?
It is.
I'm just going to have a first names, you guys.
I'm going to have a really hard time remembering last names.
Yeah, I'm just doing first.
Really?
Featherton.
Other than other than yours.
Specularia is me.
Okay.
We're picking names so that we can move amongst the Arcocra aristocracy,
unimpeded.
I am going to be
Hildebrun, contrafflerliebier.
Hildeblene?
Kaltafle libe.
I love that.
Potato drinker?
Potato lover.
Actually, that's not a translation, but it's like potato love.
That's hilarious.
That's right.
Who we have laughed?
Felix, Iris, Toa, Herde, Lifty Caprice.
They call me.
Tim.
John Cleese forgot the name of the fucking wizard.
He was like, they called me.
Tim.
It's because John Cleese forgot the real name that I was supposed to say.
No way.
They used the shing of it one.
And if you need a last name, Iron Balls.
Tim Iron Balls.
Iron Balls?
What more is that?
You have Tim Iron Balls?
Holy shit.
What a workshop.
A long proud line of Tim.
So you're all standing out as you all are reading your names off to each other.
What are you guys doing?
Question.
Yeah.
What, um, so aside from being owls, like, do we have clothing on?
Is it our old clothing on us?
Like, what?
We're all naked.
So, uh, are we?
Oh.
Oh, so you have no holding.
So yeah, you have, uh, with you, it basically morphed your clothes into an appropriate looking set of
noble clothes that you could probably flavor however you would like.
You would have the option to change those as well.
Is there a mirror nearby where I could go inspect my proportions?
Yes, I would say that there's, it's not so much as a mirror,
but it's like a greasy, dirty window outside of a tavern.
We're going to water.
And you look and you see that you are about as thick as you to hope to be.
I just, I just go, my shy.
I just thought you just go,
This is dear Florence.
This is horro-hoot.
Horrible.
What was that?
What did you say?
I said hoot, this is horrible hoot.
Why are you doing that?
Why am I hoot doing what?
Are you feeling all right?
No, I'm not.
Feeling very well hoot at all.
I hate this hoot.
She's a good.
What is this all hoot going to be over?
Hoot.
We even know where we're going.
The terrible secret that might destroy my entire family.
What?
I just suddenly I feel like there's some terrible secret.
Why are you keeping secrets from us?
Because it will destroy my entire family.
It's funny to say that because I know your terrible secret.
No, you do not.
You better not tell anyone.
I would be willing to stay quiet for all of the rings on your fingers.
What?
I don't believe Hute anything she says.
hoot because she is a hooting liar.
Well, if I'll give you this, I'll be
be an arrow anymore. Okay, then you can see, other
ones. And your necklace.
What has gotten into everyone?
I have no idea.
I think that it's probably
these royal clothes are affecting us.
They must be cursed or something.
Just staff.
I would finally recommend that we
do stuff.
I start, I start deep-picking.
Keep you close on.
I think you're right.
I think you're supposed to
look fancy.
We're all over to everyone.
Tim Iron Balls looks fancy no matter whether he's wearing clothes or not.
Then he has a point. I'll hold your pants for you.
They look like fine silk.
You couldn't stick out.
So you better keep him on.
Do you think he really goes by iron balls because, you know.
So is Capriese's owl form out just like nude like walking around?
No, my clothes are like half off of my body and my pants are probably around my knees.
But you know how like owen legs go all the way up.
You can't see anything.
It's PG-13.
I don't know what's gotten into all of you, but we need to relax and try to focus because the people are staring and we have a certain image we need to maintain.
Do you think, cool, stare at us?
We are hooch nobles.
Boy, he's also taking his pants off.
Wait, are they stared?
Do you think that they know my terrible dark secret?
We don't even know what you're talking about how can we know?
What are, what?
Yeah, you need to share your secret right now because friends don't lie to each other, T.
I don't know what it is, but they might know what it is.
I angrily ruffled my feathers and I just left them out.
Well, well, should we, should we kill them?
What, no, no!
No!
The terrible secret!
All right, all right, I turn to heart.
You know, I'm not.
I just turned to heart and I run up to heart and I'm like, are you all right?
Are you normal?
What's going on with this?
These people.
No, I think I'm hoot.
Fine.
I know.
What are you talking about?
She's so cute.
All right.
I think I'm hoot, fine.
Do I remember where we need to go?
You had discussed a variety of different things.
So you had, the main goal was at least to go to colliery, which is the living in capital city.
You know that it's far away.
You could go on the ground.
But also, you were going to investigate other ways in order to do that.
you know that they have
that nobles oftentimes
will not
may not fly or certain people may not
to fly on their own use their own wings.
They'll get in like either chariots
or rye giant owls or cherries pulled by giant owls
and the like. All right. All right.
We're getting out of this disgusting
oh, why didn't I say that?
This place is perfectly, it's absolutely
below us. We have to get to
Calgary. We have to get out of here. We have to
keep moving. Are we all together?
Are you imposing that it's gross because of me?
Not because of you, this place is absolutely beneath us and disgusting.
That is not very nice.
Both of you need to own up to what you're fucking saying.
Friends don't say that to each other.
I've just been spending too much time with Iris.
That has to be a idiotical.
Don't blame this hoot on me, hoot.
Fine, do we know where the closest transportation system would be around here?
Probably one of those carriages.
Don't put your pants on.
might be a little titan there, but we can make it fish.
You look over, you look over if you see Zorbeck,
and he looks over, and he's pulling his pants down too,
and as he sees him, like, oh.
What the hands look like, are they,
they just feathers?
They're talons, they have like, feathers.
They're like bird feet, but like they're,
imagine our hands, but they're kind of like bird feet.
So do we want our wings coming out of what kind of?
No, so we have wings on our backs.
On our backs, okay.
But you can't actually use them.
They're basically just like...
They don't get any left.
You try to flap and they just don't.
I'm picturing Achaemenis from Sword and the Stone,
if anyone remember, I am?
Yes.
The Roebit one?
No, no, no.
The original Disney film Sword and the Stone.
Oh, I'm thinking of Google.
I'm from the same.
Sorry.
Ruby.
Totally different out.
Well, well, we can, at least we can walk through the streets.
And then I can keep an eye on all of the peasants
to make sure they don't know my dog terrible secret.
They may destroy my entire family.
Is there any kind of signage like that would point to some sort of a, you know, a transportation?
So make a perception check.
Ooh, that beautiful sound.
Sorry, I'm switching.
Perception, you say?
13.
13.
You look around and as you're going through the city, you see that this town is very run down.
It's almost a shanty town.
As you see, number of those dwellings and nets all built up around this tree with a huge wooden streets.
built out with the bridges between trees.
And you don't see really any signs
in the immediate area beyond
just like taverns
and some shops and a lot of residential.
Should we ask?
Yes, I suppose if we have to,
we'll speak to...
No.
There's no reason to be upset with me about it.
I'm just making a suggestion.
I'm not upset with...
What is wrong with all of you?
Don't give you attitude, Mr.
It's Albert.
It's Albert. But you guys are just calling me Felix.
We're calling Riyadh.
No.
We have to use our relationship.
Yeah.
Are you appropriate?
Not amongst us, though.
Right.
He's still Felix.
Wait.
There's people around him.
Are you still Felix?
I'm still Felix.
Maybe there's a terrible secret.
You're not really Felix.
I don't have any.
Stop keeping secrets from us.
Nobody has any secrets.
Why are we talking about this?
I want to see if I can find somebody who I can talk to.
I'll look with him.
You see someone.
You see.
Yeah, this is going to be so bad.
You see the sexual look in Derek's eyes.
You see Zorbeck's eyes.
As you were getting undressed, his eyes are looking at you,
and then his eyes kind of look over all of you.
And make him, you know, like, um, and...
And they're coming with me.
Come on his pants while he's as much.
And both of you go over, and you see someone walking,
and always like, I always knew, nobles were perverts.
You're telling me.
Oh god.
And you see a, um, you see that there is, uh, there's some rough looking Eric Okre's larger,
these dark brown feathers.
Uh, and he just seems to be leaning up against, uh, the side of one of these bars.
And, uh, he really is the only one that isn't immediately looking at you and just
turning, running away almost.
And he just watches you approach and he folds his, his arms.
Um, excuse me, you, you, uh,
Ruffian, where is the local transportation area around here?
Who's asking?
I'm asking.
My name is Albert Sonshot Benedict, Power Bottom, the third.
And I'm Tim Ironbolts.
You lovely, you nobles are always coming here looking, demanding.
What's in it for me?
What's in it for him?
What's in it for him?
Tell him what's in it for him.
We would be able to, you would have favor amongst the nobles.
We would, what is your names?
My friends call me Claw.
And a fine name.
I've always a lighted Claw.
The path of the transportation, if you don't mind, is teleth the route.
What kind of transportation make a persuasion check?
Give me a 21.
Okay, yeah, that's a mouth.
He says, if you're looking for the chariots,
ain't going to find one easy around here.
No.
It's the bloody beaks they run that business.
We don't mind finding one hard.
Will they take coin?
Are you some kind of permanent?
No, I just appreciate a helping hand.
And I'll put it by hand over his head
and sort of wiggle his chin on a little bit.
And Jack, a disadvantage.
Okay, well that's a two.
That's gonna be a 14.
Wow.
Wow.
He immediately knocks you your arm away
and he's gonna try to punch you in the face.
Okay.
I guess my armor class is the same?
Yeah, it's all the same.
That's gonna be an 18.
Yeah, he hits.
He punches you and you're going to
to take eight points of bludgeoning damage once he hits me again I kill you once he
puts like he hits Caprice I put myself between the two no more of that we're nobles you know
that you will be punished for that transgression indeed who's gonna punish me you who's gonna punish
her tell him where is where is um describing where's uh the punishment that you're going to do to him
whips and chains and things bomb bassist slips around he says
Impact play
Um, wait
I'll cast
Friends on him
Which gives me advantage
How does that work?
That's going to be like
Once a day is just one moment
I don't know to talk
It's a moment
I will cast friends on him
Which means that for a minute
I concentrate and I get
Advantage on all charisma checks
Okay
I'm like now friend
I believe we got off on the wrong foot
No one's going to punish anyone
And if you could just point us the way to the local chariot purchasing station,
we would be out of your hair and butt of your feathers in but a moment.
He thinks for a moment, and he says,
Give me five gold, and I'll tell you where they are.
Done, and I give them five more.
Five.
He takes him.
Finally, someone fucking reasonable.
Have a good day, sir.
I'll turn around and just frustrated and walk away.
Just tell us where we're going.
It's at the hideout of the bloody beaks.
I hope you're on good terms with Gaboro.
Oh, of course.
You even have to ask that.
He does lick the boots of all your nobles.
Fair enough.
Well, you're going to want to go around the...
And then he basically gives you directions to get to the...
Get to the hideouts, basically on the other side of town.
And it's in this right towards like the bottom.
There's this additional layer, rung of streets and buildings
that is entirely controlled by the gang called the Bloody Beaks.
And they seem to be running the chariot service.
So then I'll...
Having heard the directions, I'll turn to leave, and as I'm walking away, I'll be like,
ah, absolute scum.
I can't believe that we're stuck here.
And I'll walk back to the rest of the group.
I'm back with the rest of the group.
Albert had to pay him for the directions.
I'm sorry, I don't know why I'm doing that.
He had to pay him for the direction.
I thought they were just going to be, we're supposed to be nobles, right?
There's like no respect.
Pull up your pants for fuck's sake.
Maybe that had something to do with it
Oh, me too, me too
I mean, do you want to, are you sure?
If you're fine, to any of you
know even how to hoot to be an overhoot?
I mean, you started to teach us
a little bit, but I'm still working on the face
and I just don't understand why I have such disdain
for everyone around me.
The only reason hoot that they would have hoot
forced you to pay hoot is because you
weren't hoot doing it properly, hoot.
Kind of does one do it properly,
You have disdain for everyone around you?
Yes, I don't understand it, but please teach us more.
Well, that, it is the first step, hoot.
It is?
Of course.
I don't like feeling like this.
Then you're doing it wrong, hoot?
Do we have to hoot say every other word hoot?
What?
Yeah, you're doing...
It's what owls do, hoot?
Oh.
Well, we are Tabassi being hoot owls.
I'm not a tabxy.
I'm a teetful.
No.
heart, Hoot and I
are tobacco.
I look around to see if anyone's
Is it out.
Everyone is making
There's like, you see this crowd moving
And they just, there's a good
Like 15 feet all around you.
I'm gonna turn around
Excuse me, hoot.
Do you not see the no rules
are having a proof private conversation, hoot?
Make an intimidation check at advantage.
We let Iris,
I mean, a feather, feather
to do the talking.
Is that intimidation? I agree.
Is that intimidation?
I agree with you.
21.
21.
As you say that,
the crowd immediately disperses,
and even people coming in your direction,
and they turn around and they fly up.
I do this by turning my head completely around in circles.
I'm just evil staring in 360.
No.
Incredible.
You were saying,
I was saying,
I have directions on where we can go
to get the chariot we need to go to Calgary.
but it's run by a gang, a local gang,
and we're going to have to work with them or pay them
or get them to give us passage.
The only catch is that they're pretty close in league with Gaboro,
who is the one that Lufty was able to pull one to fastball overall.
Well, if you didn't sell her in his slavery,
I don't think we'd be in his disposition.
Yeah, and I think he still loves me, so we're fine.
I'm just saying we just need to be extra careful
as we move through this God-forsaken town and move on to Kaliri.
How long has it been since I left?
It's probably been like 30 minutes.
Yeah, he's probably still asleep.
And we should move quickly.
We should go right now, yes.
I don't think he's going to recognize you.
I mean, you were a Lufty when you saw him left, right?
Correct.
Yeah, but he knows that I have this ring.
You know, he gave us all of these rings and papers.
He's going to recognize us.
Sorry, I was very sick while we made our way up here.
But we made our trade.
We made our trade.
We traded for the rings.
We made. We did business. It was done.
The transaction was finished.
Oh, that's a good.
That's on him.
It's wrong.
So we should be, I just wanted to be aware, everyone to be aware that his name may come up
and we need to do what we will with that.
And I'm just kind of leading them through, while we're walking through the crowds and going the directions we were given.
I will stop us.
No, hoot.
While we're walking, hoot.
Stand head tall, hoot.
If anyone, hoot, looks at you.
Spin your head around, hoot, and give them.
and the evil eye, hoot.
Don't blink.
Do not talk hoot to any of them.
So, who...
Well, I'm allowed to do that?
Help up your chest, hoot.
You will do it, hoot.
And then I look at, like, a random passerby, and I make the most evil, horrible owl face that I can at them.
Make an intimidation check.
Oh, yeah, maybe that's going to be over 20.
If they do that thing with their eyebrows, like...
19.
19.
This, you see this person.
that can't be older than maybe 14 looks.
And he, and he flies off away.
That was fantastic.
That was really nothing like you.
What?
You took a real pleasure in that.
That was wild.
I did.
So I just look at this like, look as if you have to take a hoot.
It's like always.
Is that the evil eye?
Now, shut your mouth.
Or sleeper.
We don't talk when we walk, hoot.
Beaks.
Shut up.
And I just walked.
Chest puffed.
My head is constantly spinning around
giving people the evil eye.
Tooth up.
Everyone's chest looks very good, puffed.
Put your hoot.
Hands back on this.
What is his name?
He's, uh, Theodore's one back.
No, no.
He's really,
Sorbet.
Wouldn't it be funny if Sorbet were to kiss Hersia?
I'm just kidding.
I mean, unless.
He says that as you all walk through the streets.
And every like 20 steps, Hart, who's shuffling along,
he's obviously the smallest of all of the owls.
She's shuffling around.
She's constantly looking up at Ira.
It's like, hey, am I, doing this right?
Is this, is this good?
Yes, darling, hoot.
Is, is good?
It's good.
It's in your hoot nature.
It's, oh, is that why there's a story hoot about a hoot captain and a hoot?
What did I say hoot about speaking?
I'm sorry, hoot.
And you all walk and strut.
You all walk and strut.
And I'm going to need everyone to make a group performance check.
Ooh, yeah.
Oh, God.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, no.
18.
Natural 20.
That's three 90, 20.
Three?
I got armament.
I got the elder side.
I got a four.
Oh, six two.
Oh, six two.
Yeah.
I got it.
18.
Oh, don't need to raise.
21.
Twenty-five.
Twenty-one.
Twenty-one, okay.
Seven.
Seven.
Okay, and then I need to roll for a little more.
Can we fly?
No.
No.
Because it's an illusion.
The wings are just an illusion, right?
No, it's altered, but basically you're unable to, like,
use any additional features.
you're unable to actually use them to your benefit.
You do-d-d-do-to-do-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-swig-ty.
Swig-hooty, I'm coming for that boody.
You, I said, I'll dance.
As you make your way through the city,
you all put on a great show as these commoners
and low-born folk all are avoiding you.
The second they even hear you,
your talons clacking against the wood.
They are sprinting or flying away in every which direction to get out of your path.
It is only once you get deeper and deeper into the city away from where you came that
that individuals seem to be a bit hardened.
Some are scarred.
Others are missing patches of feathers.
And some will look at you and maybe turn away.
But then others will just keep their eyes on it as the streets get narrower and the state of the building seems to get a lot more worn down
and eventually you see that you arrive at this one tree that's a lot thinner than the others that the city's built on it almost seems to be rotten as the leaves
are barren and there are large cracks
through worn by maybe
termites or
woodrock and you see a number of
Eric Okra
both male and female
all standing guard flying around
as you see several
holes board into these streets
with ladders down
This is the place
Is that it?
Is it? It looks right.
It looks right, yeah.
Yeah, I mean, according to that guy's directions, then yes, we need to proceed.
Yeah, but this place looks disgusting.
I'm not going to find anything shiny in Zah.
It is disgusting, but we don't have a choice.
I think once we get to the next place, we'll find more pretty things.
Yes, when you just get to two colliery will be in a less disgusting place with less disgusting people.
This place will take us to collier.
You're watch your mouth.
I don't appreciate it.
You're calling your people disgusting.
We're your France.
No, we are above all of this, and I wave my air cooker claws around.
Oh, look, Hoot.
Felix is learning Hoot.
Thank you.
No, I do Hoot think you're taking it Hoot too far.
I don't understand.
And then I proceed to, like, climb down the ladder.
Now, my concern, Hoot is that Hershey's hoot ass,
Hout will not fit in through the
tiny tree.
I would normally be offended, but I would agree with you there.
This is the smallest Hout tree.
Hout, can I fit?
Hout, am I doing that right?
Are you mocking Hout me?
No, Hout. I'm just trying to follow Houti.
I hate being an owl, Hurt.
Purgey, you're going to make you through just fine.
You just go in right after me, and I start to make my way with you.
No, I will go first.
Do I?
Do I.
How long is this ladder?
It's probably only about 20 feet.
Okay, then I'll just wait at the bottom.
Yeah, so you wait at the bottom.
As they're jostling for position.
As they're jostling for position,
and Zorbeck is going to try to get in front of you.
As soon as he starts to, you watch your ass, Zorbeck.
I will cast a spell magic on you so fast.
I have a lot of axes, horty boy.
Normally I'm warning.
It's just right now I look like a feathery boy.
Did somebody say feathery?
Did someone say horny?
Yes.
And he's going to kind of shove you out of the way.
I will attempt to jump in front.
Athletics contest.
Why am I rolling like ass?
That is a nightmare.
Athletics?
Oh, yeah, three.
He just shoves.
Oh, fuck.
Hey, can you guys just like hurry up?
What's this going on?
I try to help Caphrase.
Are you okay?
What's going on?
Get the fuck down the ladder.
I, I, uh, my pride is very hurt.
Get out of here.
If you insist.
And I just.
I'm waiting.
Oh, Zorbeck didn't think this through.
Yeah, I'm just like moving down as fast as I can
trying to get my ass in his face.
Oh, well, this isn't so bad.
D'Orbeck will take it.
Yikes.
As you all eventually make your way down a ladder.
And as you all arrive, it's not much longer
until you see out
ahead of you
that there is
this narrow walkway
with various large
perches built into either side
and you look like you see that there's
their owl droppings, the remnants of huge pellets
as you see these giant
brown feathers laying
on the ground. It seems as if this is
normally a rookery of some kind
for aroules.
However, you don't see any
and you see that there is
through the rock of this wood
there seems to be a large
opening carved in like a huge
doorway
and it seems to be
it seems to be
heavily guarded on either side
and you see that there are
a number of
thug-looking
aerococros all of them
are rough
and their eyes are
watching you very
carefully and you notice that all of them have a similar feature of all their beaks
regardless of sides seems to have been painted red because they're the bloody
beaks do you get it do you get it they the be it's completely hoot uninspired
hoot what i appreciate the reference to the game name no who you never appreciate
hoot of reference to a game name hoot oh that's right hoot okay and you let them hoot to know it
Oh, right, hoot. As a noble, that's what, uh, that's what I would say.
Hey, hey, you, hoot.
Not immediately, what? Where, when do I do it, hoot?
If they give you trouble, hoot.
Oh, so I don't just go tell them that I think that they're be colors.
You don't hoot talk to them hoot unless you need to.
Oh, that's right.
Which actually, it raises a good point.
I assume we would just give them money and get out of here as quickly as possible.
I don't think that that's unreasonable, right? As a no one, we just pay for it.
pay for what we need. We have the money and they certainly don't. So we might as well give it to them.
Why don't we just walk right in like beyond the place? Yes. Fantastic. Do we see...
So as you walk around, you start to see that there are a number of air cochering that are flying
about 30 feet away from the tree looking at you. And as you approach, you see that all of them
have these huge axes. And as you approach the two guards at the door,
cross the axis and one of them looks at you and says, where are you going?
We need passage to Killiri, of course.
Have you talked to the boss?
Oh, you mean, uh, my friend his name.
Caborro.
Caboro.
Caboro, of course we have.
No, not Gaboro.
Bosco.
Oh, oh, you, friend.
Oh, Bosco, no, we didn't speak to Bosco.
No, my name is...
We have a lot of money.
We are very important hoot.
You are knocking me hoot to be speaking to us.
Let us ask.
Yeah, yeah, hoot.
And I think I wanted to say, Hoot, that your be coloured, barely uninspired hoot.
Don't you think it's a little on the nose, hoot?
Literally, hoot, literally on the nose, hoot.
Can I say a red beak when your gang name is the bloody beaks hoot?
Maybe like a nice purple or a maroon.
Maroon.
All right.
All right.
Let me do it.
It's already dead.
As you look, they both are keeping firm their eyes or narrowing a little bit.
One seems to actually look a little hurt.
By what you're saying.
And so whoever would like to, I'll say make a persuasion check a disadvantage, Iris.
Oh, God.
Tama.
He said persuasion?
A ten.
A ten.
And the same one looked at you, not the one that was hurt.
And like, she looks over and gives a nod at this other.
He's like, as he sniffs a little bit, and he holds his axe, even tighter.
And the guard looks at you and says,
You come into our territory?
You don't know the boss?
You're trying to bribe us.
Gaboros said to shut down transportation.
He's looking for a little genie.
Do you know a little genie?
Do we look hoot like we would know a genie, hoot?
I don't know.
If we knew a hoot genie, we would own you, hoot.
That makes...
That makes...
Well, then how much gold are you offered?
For you...
For you nothing, hoot.
For the transportation, hoot, whatever it costs.
This is not a bribe, hoot.
We are no rules.
Hoot.
And we take what we deserve.
Hoot.
I ruffle my feathers, my head goes around.
Yeah.
What she said, hoot.
Yeah.
If you're not providing a service of some kind in exchange for money,
then we'll be on our way and we'll find our own transportation.
Make an intimidation check of advantage.
I'm standing to find her doing that like owl thing where their head goes up and down.
Intimidation.
Those owls in the attic.
21.
21.
Yeah.
This guard seems to relax a little bit as you say this to her iris, and slowly puts the axe down.
I'm gonna talk to my boss.
If he wants to see it, we'll send you in.
Hopefully you pay better than Gaboro does.
We are nobles after all.
What is doing?
I'm trying to do what I was sent to do.
She's a no more like normally.
Oh, okay.
All right.
So, the guard goes in, and you stand there and wait.
And as you do that, more and more of thugs surround you,
and still was about six.
And after about five minutes, you hear a hoot.
and then the one that's standing at the door nods and steps away and extends an arm into the darkened hole in the tree
can we understand what the hoot meant uh i would say you don't can i discern by the look on our
face if this is a trap make an insight check so the hoot wasn't a language it was just a noise
18.
18.
You get the sense that
there's a
look of
satisfaction
but it's hard to decipher
exactly what that
means.
A look of satisfaction.
I'm going to proceed
when they...
Okay, when whoever extends,
then when I puff up,
do it exactly as Iris told us to do.
Yep.
You little hoot smell.
horrible lute.
I want to be the last
person to walk in and like
open my eyes really wide
unblinkingly at her
and then poop out of pellet
nod and then keep walking.
That's how owl biology works.
I thought they should tell us.
They threw up.
Is it like a ridiculously long stream?
Is it just like bird shit or is it?
Yeah. They did that normal bird.
They should have like a normal bird, but they throw up.
They threw out these, like, things that have, like,
the carcasses and what they...
I do. Just remember what you have pants.
I will...
I will...
I will...
Herfid your pants.
It's like,
Purrish tints.
Herring the shit's your pinch.
They maintain
eye contact for absolute
all of status.
You're a favorite part.
Yes, right?
My favorite part is...
My favorite part is...
Is how quiet everyone got
and then Mikey goes,
I...
I don't think my cat...
I don't think my house I'm...
That's right.
I should sit my pants and throw up.
What do you get that?
What do you do that?
I like the pants shooting, but I also like the throwing on the pillow.
I say dealer's choice.
If someone in real life, if someone looked at me dead in the eye and shit themselves,
I'd be like, wow, I'm part to the shit in my pants.
So you look at them and you shoot your pants, you're like, I'm a noble bitch, someone else is going to clean that.
There's no way.
Yeah, no tixie back to his.
Not understanding her own eye on in biology.
She's like, ha, ha, ha.
like, ha!
Oh no!
Very pointed eye-cotch.
And then as I'm keeping, I will shirk my picture.
Well, let's see, roll the Constitution check.
Oh, Jesus is crazy.
This is why you need a natural point-A.
Uh, 19.
Is it a check or a- It's a check?
It's a check.
Then 16.
16.
Okay, so yeah, I think that's about you, you try, like,
and you realize that you haven't eaten any creatures where there would be bone and flesh.
And so with all the extremely horridor, and suddenly go, pf, and it's this foul smell.
And then you can roll in a intimidation check at Disadvantage.
Not straight.
Remember as a group when we set out to play some serious Dunstanite's
And you really tell some good stories.
Oh.
So at Disavantage at Tadish is a five.
Dividation is a five.
Uh, she sniffs.
sniffs.
And...
You have to rule Constitution and not
vomit.
Yeah.
It smells just bad enough that it's awful,
but not overpowering.
Oh.
And...
Oh, Christ.
And just looks at you with disgust
as you walk in.
Better wipe that smirk off your face,
or I'm going to feed these to you later.
And I'll walk in.
Yikes.
There seems to be...
The disgust increases.
As...
as the as you all walk in.
And you see.
I hate my life for that.
I love it.
As you see the,
a large room bored out into this tree.
And you see the remnants of insect devouring and rot
as a large chamber is built out.
And you see that there's actually three levels,
built down into the space.
And you see that this one hole is not the only entrance or exit into the tree.
As you see that there is a much larger one about the two stories down.
You're on the top floor of this cylindrical chamber.
And you hear the hooting and ruffling of feathers as you walk forward and there are no railings
at all.
There are several perches going out for each level.
and you see that there are roost, you smell the waste of giant owls and the food and slopping meat.
And as you look down at the bottom, you see these strange contraptions that look like carriages almost,
but not quite like the carriages that you had seen.
There are small sets of four wheels, but each of them has these wooden rigs with almost like wings built out of camera.
canvas on either side. And you see that there is leather strapping that seems to connect
to harnesses. And there are a number of just giant owls all around perched. And you hear
the commotion of these birds as you step forward. And as you walk in, all of the guards
darken the door and begin to follow you.
And you see as there is
standing toward the back,
there is a single figure,
tall, not particularly broad,
but it seems to be a male
that is roughed up, patches of dark,
that same red beak.
And discerning eyes
as he stands by
a cabinet that seems to be covered in various liquors and bottles of wine.
And as you all approach him, he looks at you and says, I hear you going to make a deal.
Yeah.
Yes, we are looking to procure some transportation to...
Caleri.
Kaleri, yes.
And we understand that there isn't supposed to be any characters today, but...
We thought you might make an exception for no rules such as ours.
This is I have a red beak.
Yes.
Yes.
I just wanted to mention that.
Have you ever thought that having a red beak and being called the bloody beaks was a little on the nose?
Literally and figuratively, it's a little tacky, don't you think?
You no, no, not wrong voice.
You know what's think.
You can come in here and tell us lowborn folk how to live.
Well, we are nobles, after all, aren't we hoot?
What's the point of being a noble?
If you can't tell a lowborn such as yourself, how to live?
Are you nobles or did you just make a deal with...
Nobles?
No.
No.
We are definitely...
A hundred percent.
Absolutely nobles, yes.
A hundred percent.
Make a deception check.
Whoa.
Pretty damn good.
Uh, 20.
He nods.
So, that seems to be case.
But there is one owl that runs this place.
It is Gaboro.
I dare not go against him.
But what are you offering me?
Gaboro doesn't have to know.
There may be extra gold in it for you as well.
We pay more than Gaboro.
How much you pay?
Whatever the standard prices, sir,
multiplied by two perhaps what would that be this two carriages two thousand gold pieces
let's do it and I start pulling out whatever two thousand divided by sixes three
four hundred well you know on survey in here one of the guards mentions that
gabor was looking for a genie I sync yeah
Yes, do you know what this genie?
Well, no, but it is the funniest thing.
I was going by his store earlier, because I thought I might just, you know, pick something up on the way out of town.
And I saw like a little blue thing run the way down from behind his shirt and it was going down and going down to the ground.
And I thought that's weird.
But then I didn't think anything about it because I'm so rich.
Maybe this would be valuable information for you to do.
I'm sure if you brought him that, he would not be magic for anything you did.
And you're saying that was Jeannie.
Well, no, but how many blue things do you see on Roundup, you?
Not many. Make an exception check, please.
It's also 333 gold pieces of piece.
Anything. Which I can't afford.
I'll pay here.
Really? I bought...
three diamonds to resurrect your asses in town.
I have about a thousand, so I have extra.
It's 333, you know, a piece.
So repeating.
Yeah, repeating of course.
What did you get, by the way, for decept for 10?
10.
He steps forward and his eyes narrow.
Why would you lie to me in my own place?
Why do you think I'm lying to you?
I can smell a liar, a rap to be wolfed down.
Perhaps you're smelling a teary red beet paint.
Exactly what he said.
You know, you nobles do not have respect.
Not for you, no.
Who needs respect when you have money?
This is too...
We give respect where respect is too, friends.
As you say all this, the guards from behind you start to surround you, and you realize that there's now six behind you and with Bosco in front of you.
They all have their axes drawn.
Do you know what death, Hout, feels like?
Hout, the feeling of your soul, Hout, being pulled from the body of Hout.
I'm a cleric, as it were, Hout.
He hesitates, and his eyes glanced.
between all of the guards
and they all
have their axes at the ready as they
come inch closer.
And Hout, if they found out
that you did something to us, Hout,
I'm sure your death
Hout would be swift and painful
Hout. And that your soul,
Hout, would not find, rest,
ever.
I know what it takes.
You take a life.
But do Houth, know what it feels like
to lose one, Hout?
Not yet.
Are you threatening me?
No, warning, Hoot.
Who will come?
Many nobles go wandering into poor areas,
thinking they can get away with whatever they want.
You've not met Hoot many like us.
What makes you so special?
I know, Hoot, the power of war.
We are connected to only the highest circles.
I withdraw my offer for paying double.
I would suggest you just let us through, or the most powerful people in the city will hear of this from our very many weeks.
Not even this city, but Cleary itself.
Make a intimidation check-in advantage.
It was horrible.
You were still intimidating, though.
But do you know what it's like to know?
Yeah, that was badass.
12.
12.
Okay.
And you're casting suggestion?
I am suggesting that he takes just
$1,000.
No longer...
How does that work?
So he has to make a... I suggest a course of activity,
such as him letting us pass through for $1,000.
And he...
Unless he can't be charmed,
he does that thing, assuming he doesn't save on a
spelt CDC, wisdom saving for him.
Okay.
So, as...
As you say that, Iris, there seems to be a bit of recognition and something seems to click.
As he looks at you and all of you, I do see he marks the clearing nobles on you.
Perhaps you do know, and we rats live beneath the great irees of Gaviri and all of the great noble houses.
But you stomp down, I am not one to fear much.
I sometimes fear Gaboro.
But I fear the nobles that run, the trees red with blood, more.
And he nods to all his guards and they back up.
and they start to lower their axes a little bit.
I look at the guard directly behind me, I go.
It was you.
It finally gives to me.
It's like, I'll sit here.
And he turns as the suggestion.
What was your suggestion again?
That he takes the normal price of a thousand
rather than my initial offer of double his
whatever they normally pay when friends.
that he let us take the transportation for a love.
Okay.
He thinks and he says, if you get out of here, and never return, never speak to Gaboro, the bloody
beaks would let you use the chariot.
I think that would be most in Meninbun, don't you?
Agree.
Yeah.
Yes. How much gold do we owe you then?
One thousand.
What, half?
Six.
Oh, okay. I was sad.
Can someone do the math?
$1,000 a piece, give or take?
Yeah, $150.000.
I will pay that.
You will?
Yeah.
Okay.
I'll pull out my bag of gold.
A one.
A two.
A three.
It was one one.
About 150.
Yeah.
We'll just round down in 150, make it easy.
151.5.
That's of shit.
Incredible.
So as you all do that, he looks at all of the coins and he counts them quickly.
He slides them all into a box, if you're rattling around, and he slams the box shut, locks it up,
places it behind the cabinet.
Do you know how to fly?
we know how to fly if we were normal iron co-croat?
You mean a chariot?
A chariot, yeah. Oh, a chariot.
No, of course not. We have peat with as that.
Thank you. Not in hoot.
Out of character, I am proficient in land vehicles.
These are air vehicles.
So I would say, yeah, that wouldn't quite translate.
He says, you are welcome.
I would say that kind of understanding that could give you maybe a little bit of a leg up and you can certainly try.
But he thinks for a moment, he says, we will send one for each of you to Kaliri.
Do not speak to the beak that I send with you.
Understood.
But don't tell us what to do, Hoot.
But I wouldn't want to speak to him anyway.
Yes, I'm not sure why we'd want to.
Yes.
Quattrot, hoot. He nods. And he says, on the ground floor, that's where you will get your chariots. Nice doing business with you.
Someone should clean up that hoot shit. That's over there. It's like falling out of purchase.
I am. I side-stamp and I looked down at it and I was like, it's disgusting.
I'm just a lot
to climb back down to the ground floor.
I'm the last person
to go.
And as we're viewing, I would be like,
If you know anything about me
or my family, you best,
you best forget it.
What is your name?
My name?
Ah, I am bird.
I do not know a bird.
Well,
just forget anything you know about me
I'll like grab his shoulders and start to walk him away
so what is worth I think the beat is quite fetching
and I give him like a wink and then start to make my way
you you make your way down
as the
air cochra that are they
that surrounded you then all
lift off with their wings and fly down to the third floor
and you hear
Bosco say from up on the
the top level, as he sees you climbing down letters like,
you nobles are so hot that you do not use your weights.
Pathetic.
And you eventually make your way down to this area that is covered with ramps.
And you see these huge feathered owls as they leave their roots,
pulled out by the air of okra, as they hoot and are fastened up.
Each of the carriages is fastened to two giant owls in a strange contraption that leaves their wings free.
And they all fasten back.
And as you all watch them do this, this doesn't take them more than 15 minutes to get everything set up.
you see each of the
each of the carriages gets fastened with
one of the smaller of the guards for each of them
they put their axe to the side and they
make their way up and one says
it's going to need to be four of you to each one
of course
first
I will take the
are they side by side
Yep, I'll take the break long.
I'll go with Toa. Which one's fancier?
Okay.
They both seem to be equally...
They're not fancy.
In that case, we'll take heart as well for us.
Okay.
So we tow a Felix heart and Iris.
Okay.
And then that way, Berja can be with her manslice.
Okay.
Whatever his name is.
Man slice.
Not toward Brow.
And Lofti.
Mm-hmm.
So you three and Zorbach.
Zorbeck, as he walks over and gets in, and it's actually relatively spacious, you see that
there, that is open on either side, and there are some loose leather drapes where you could
try to close it up.
You imagine that when you're in the air flying, it doesn't do too much good, but the, you all
manage to get in, the whole carriage starts to creak as you all settle down, and Zorbeck looks
at you and says, it's going to be.
tight quarters.
Indeed it is, yeah.
Indeed it is, yes.
I have to warn you guys.
What is it?
You know, dear.
Okay.
Oh.
It's that idea.
Oh.
It's okay.
I don't mind it.
Oh, really?
Yes.
Yikes.
Yikes.
Do you guys have an extra pair of pants?
I go through my pack while we're in the air just to see if there's like extra clothes or anything.
I'm sure you go extra clothes.
You have all your shit.
That would fit literally.
You know, I have this towel.
I have a towel.
I don't want a dirty.
I can't put that around my waist.
I pay for them every single time I have thrown here.
Because you always need a towel.
You always need a towel.
It's a hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy.
Yeah.
So, yeah, I have a towel written that right here if you want.
I feel bad using it.
I'm not sure we can find some cleaners.
I just feel like I need to take care of this.
Why not it's on the 30 guys?
I feel like I should take care of this before we get to Kaleri, right?
Or is this good?
I didn't, I didn't.
I don't think it's good.
Maybe just like takes them off and hangs them off the back and hits them air.
Oh, yeah.
That's a great idea.
So I just start deep pantsing immediately.
And I take the towel and I just like, like must be two my lungs,
curtoe style, like four and I hang it on the back of the chair.
You do that.
And that happens.
And all of these hardened, murderous criminals look on you with abject disgust.
And disdain.
As you all get in four and four.
and you hear various hoots and different calls
and they don't stand out to you as being in an orrin at all
but it does seem to be that there are just certain call signs that they have
and with one final creak the carriage jostles around
and you hear the loud beat of the wings of the giant owls
and they both take off into the sky
and you're pulled forward and suddenly it feels like you're shaking around violently,
but then once you achieve a decent altitude,
as you sail away from the town of Bubax,
you start to level out as the wings on either side of the carriages open
and you hear the sailcloth almost flapping in the wind as you fly through the forest.
And as you look back towards the city one last time, as it starts to, morning starts to, so the suns are surrised, you see the city start to, get a little bit more quiet.
And you see one flustered-looking gray owl looking around befuddled, searching the streets.
and you sail off away from Booboks.
And what do you guys doing on the journey?
Where is the guy sitting driving this thing?
So...
Is it like a carriage really? He's on top or is...
Yeah, he's on top and he has these huge range.
A stagecoach style.
One is connected to each of the owls
as you are flying through the forest
pulled by these giant owls.
I have fresh pants on.
There are dirty pants in the towel
that precincty here and hanging, flapping,
quietly in the wind,
hopefully drying and just shaking out all the next room.
I'm going to continue to study a missile.
Okay.
I'm going to have my head, like, basically out the window,
like a dog, like, seeing all the sites.
I'm going to see everything that we go over.
Okay.
You're watching all these people on the bottom floor of the forest
getting bombarded with L. shit.
Yeah.
I'll pull out my instrument and plug out some tunes to sort of while away at a time that we're traveling with some songs.
I'll pour over my paper so I can remember every single detail about my name and whatever my paper say, I want to try to memorize as closely as I can.
What kind of information is on the papers that we have other than name?
So it is basically detailing a house that doesn't actually exist.
a long line of lineage that goes back to the early days of Euryos, and it includes a seal of whatever
you care for it to be.
And it's basically just the proof that you need, and it seems to be pristine and incredibly
well made.
It's clear that Gaboro is a very skilled artificer, and he was able to, that he's able to forge
all of these things, but it seems like most of the individuals and eros are able to afford them.
And so, as you're all flying around, you've been flying for about an hour, and the rain starts to
trickle down as you hear the rumbling of thunder. The wind starts to pick up. That same
familiar storm, but seems to be more intense than the last time. And before, you know,
that it was even more intense and more intense every time it starts a storm and you
it is raining it's raining as the as the huge canopy seems to block most of it but there are
drips of moisture and rain does manage to get through as it's difficult to see the sky as it
all just looks like darkness upon darkness the occasional crash of thunder and the
streak of lightning you can see
through the leaves, but it's very dark and windy and you begin to get shaken back and forth
as you fly through the trees.
Can I cast detect magic and see if this is a natural storm or if it is not like a magically
created storm?
So how does detect magic work?
In, I sense the presence of magic within 30 feet, so I'm kind of thinking like rain, like if the rain falling down is
a product of magic storm um it'll make an aura yeah i'll say i'll say that you are able to cast it
and while you get this aura that that radiates around you and it seems if the water itself
is it magical but you all it does seem to have some faint hints that this is something that is not
quite natural.
And as you're
flying through,
the storm starts
to get worse and worse as the wind
whips back and forth.
More rain starts to make
its way through the canopy and
crash down.
And
I want to make a second check, please.
No good, no good.
Eat.
18.
18? 15. 15?
14. 12. 12.
Peking my head out.
But my pants of perception is 18.
Okay.
Okay.
Picking my head out to see if my pants have been rinsed with the rain and the towel as well,
flapping behind it.
I have my head out the window, which would mean that I could see more,
but I'm actually just like letting the wind like flow into my cheeks and like blow out.
Like my tongue's like,
So I see nothing.
I don't see shit.
I don't see shit.
I'm like tuning my Instagram.
So as the storm gets worse and worse,
you've been flying for probably about six hours at this point.
As you get closer to Cleary and you see that it's slightly off through the trees.
You can you see the faint glow of something.
a city, you're not sure if it's clear.
But as,
but you're, you're riding along
and suddenly you hear a sharp,
as you see,
the flapping of feathers,
as the bloody beak thug that
was flying on your chair in.
Falls and crumples dead.
You see a,
a huge,
arrow along through his throat and suddenly the giant owls hoot and they start to shake
around as your chariot starts to rock back and forth.
Fighting tubulence, Felix, we're going to die?
I forget which one.
You're with Derek and Maya.
So did the body fall out of the chariot?
The fall out of the chariot and falls down.
I want to look to see where it came from.
And the same thing.
And then you hear another.
And then the driver of yours falls out.
Oh shit, it's the Ironborn.
I will instead...
I will instead be like,
does it look like I can take the seat where he was?
Like if I got forward,
is there any way for me to get from here to there?
You can see that you would be able to climb out
and try to get up in the front, yeah.
try to help him as well.
We got to see if we get sideways, then come on.
Okay, all right.
Yeah.
We'll climb around both sides and try to get into the table
where we might be able to control these giant owls.
So you climb in and make an athletics check.
Oh, good.
Or athletics.
Who are you feeling?
Honestly.
19.
I mean, I know how to sail a boat,
but I didn't know how to sail a wind thing.
It's fine.
It's got to be almost the exact same thing.
Now get up there.
I push him up.
into the...
Making an athletics check.
I'm gonna touch him and guidance him.
Okay.
Ooh, hold it.
Hold it.
Ooh, I'm gonna need it.
I'm gonna need it.
Yikes.
I use a twist.
You may.
Yeah.
Worst.
No way.
Ooh.
10, 11, 12.
13.
That's not horrible.
13.
And Toa, as you start to climb out,
suddenly the chariot
rocks and you lose your footing on the
on the wet, slick wood,
and you begin to slip,
and you have just one more moment
before you feel like you're going to fall in the forest form.
I attempt to grab a rope or something.
Make an athletics check.
I'm using another twist.
And a different D-20.
How far we can't be?
No.
There we fucking go.
So two twists used athletics.
Yep.
27.
27.
Okay.
So you managed to actually grab on
to one of those
rope and it tilt
the carriage
and you're able to then
heave yourself up into the driver's seat
as you look down
and then those of you that are
up ahead
you see what the source of these
two arrows was
as I think that all of you
would have the chance now to see up ahead
as this dark figure
as being coated in rain
and the wind howls all around you
as you see that there is a single figure flying
and a hood blows back with a gust of wind
and you see the face of an owl,
almost this heart-shaped face with a small beak,
one eye almost blazing with this menacing orange.
The other is this milky white glass
with a huge scar down the side.
As you see this piece,
this pure evil intent in the one eye,
as you see on one side that there'd spear
on this individual's bat, holding a long bow,
and suddenly you see around you
as the storm is almost coalescing,
as starts to take shape,
as you start to see creatures through the storm.
They look almost serpentine,
but feathery wings,
but made out of the storm itself.
I remember, for the mission to please.
Is the main owl that you describe
you see a medium creature like us
or see a larger?
Yes.
What are the same?
Wow.
Oh, I have advantage of initiative.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Happy?
I mean, I also have advantage.
Roll it three to two.
Yay.
Expo.
Is this?
Yeah, it's going to go.
Good night.
Yeah, one of nine, which is you.

Where's my beautiful peat and mini?
Oh, I found the penis.
Yeah, that's one pretty easy.
Just the penis as bat wings.
So you guys are over there, Horcia and Caprice.
Penis and anything that might cross.
And we're back here and you're up at the reins, right, buddy?
Yep.
So IRS are back here.
If that's good with you, Nikki.
So we're on the reins as well.
Yeah, we're on the front though, right?
The reins are up here.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, we're on the rain.
And then we got lifting in the back.
We're on the back.
Can you push this about currently a little bit further back towards the right about there, yeah.
Man, Joe, I didn't realize that's a huge calf.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, yeah.
He's like baseballs in there.
He's absolutely joked.
Venus?
Oh, shit.
Are he's like the Naga business?
Coahuatl's.
Quattles?
You don't know what they are.
There we go.
There we go.
Great.
All right.
Okay, so initiative, 20 and 25.
20.
23.
23 for toe arm?
22, sorry, 22.
22.
We remember that.
Okay, 20 for Caprice.
15, 20.
15.
16.
16 for Lofty.
16 for Felix.
Hersia and Iris, what do you get?
14.
14.
Herod.
Five.
Five.
Okay.
I'm going to rule for heart.
This is really dark.
I don't know if the other.
can see it, but that is more.
That's your finger.
That just is black.
Yeah, it looks like a black.
It's just really dark.
It's sort of an owl business.
You can kind of see these like, what here?
He was here.
And then these businesses, you can see much better.
We're doing bar room for, uh, for what's his face for the dude.
Bob green.
Bob, great.
Bob, really.
That's going to be willow for, uh...
That's the little flying serpenty business that are made of storm for heart.
Oops, I got cherry.
What was he?
Like here?
And then we're going to roll this.
Should we do battle can business?
Yeah.
Here we go.
Three.
We'll see it.
I might be in some adjustments here.
You think it out.
It's pretty good, actually.
Monsters good.
And monsters, too.
Okay.
Okay.
Toe, you are up.
I will immediately.
Ah!
Yeah.
Yeah.
We have to really rub that.
that penis in.
That's my purpose.
I guess, so I'm
holding the reins and attempting just to
kind of keep us on an even keel
in some way
using any
kind of sailing knowledge I can
and rigging. I don't know if it's going to help me at all.
But I want to kind of keep
the carriage level
somewhat. And I
guess what I'll do is
for my action, I'm just going to take
the dodge action as I'm trying to just kind of,
because I can't do a whole lot.
I'm trying to keep the dodge action,
trying to keep this thing.
Make an athletics check.
Throw your vault.
21.
21.
So as the wind is whipping around,
all of these storm creatures are all surrounding you.
You feel this carriage starts to rock,
but totally minutes to hold on firmly to these rains.
Okay, Caprice, you're up.
Oh, and the main dude is that guy right there?
Um, no way.
Uh, is 30, right?
Yeah, that's, no way.
Um, uh, these are individual owls, right?
Yep.
Oh, so I'm trying to, I want to try to study the thing first, but that's, like, my first priority.
Whoever is, I mean, both are up there, so you can choose.
We're both doing it in a person.
Did our rider or guy got shot down to him?
Yeah.
Okay.
We got to deal with these guys, but we got to study this thing first.
I'll wrap him around the, um, uh, uh,
the leech and all, and I'll make, use my action to attempt to steady the giant owls.
And then, uh, we, we got this together, okay?
Hurried John. I'll give you inspiration with my bonus, uh, bonus action.
I will attempt to steady the owls so that we don't know horribly before we have
done that. Uh, yeah, okay, it's athletics, you say?
Mm-hmm. Where's athletics on here?
The top. Oh, it's, yeah, okay, uh, three.
Three. Um, so, uh, you feel as you're doing this, that it, that it, that,
the starch to rock and shake and you're having a difficulty, difficult time doing this.
And as you do that, I'm going to need all four of you to make a dexterity saving
characters.
24.
24?
Quite my word.
13.
25.
25.
Okay.
So you all manage to stabilize, even the bugbear manages too.
And with that, it is Monsters 1's.
And as this owl's flying back, as the giant owls that are guiding your chariot seem to be, they're stopping, almost there's this strange hover, it's slowing down as this one individual then takes the long bow and is going to shoot an arrow at each of the two of you.
And with the momentum, he's going to move about 20 feet closer.
Is he different at these guys?
Yeah.
What is he?
He's like a barn owl, I'm guessing.
Barnow Air Coke, but I was like a hood and scarred eye and that's shooting in us.
Oh, yeah.
And he's going to shoot at Toa.
He's going to be a natural 20.
He's disadvantaged.
No, he's not.
Who is close to me.
I think Toa just has to be close to me, but I'm going to check because I can probably make that not a natural 20.
He's also disoaders.
Well, yeah.
So did you do...
Oh.
Yeah, no, he is not a natural friend.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
Um, yes, got it.
Okay.
So it, oh, but it's disadvantage, right?
Yes.
Okay.
Oh, I need to roll again.
That's a good to see Dodge action.
It's still going to hit you though, because it's 15 plus.
Oh, well, if it's a disadvantage, then you can use that in what that's for.
Okay.
And with that, it's going to be a 21.
Yeah.
Uh, 21.
And as it fires into you, it's going to deal piercing matters for you, right?
I'm not ready sooner.
Okay.
And as the arrow sinks into you,
you feel this horrible,
almost like this magic,
as the death itself is imbued in these arrows.
Oh, shit.
And we're going to...
Oh.
Yikes.
Yikes.
I'm not good wood rage combat, you guys.
I'm a paladin.
19 points of damage.
Can you get Peyton up here.
And then it will be stones endurance to reduce that by...
Can I untie the towel on a spruce?
Wow.
I gotta do that.
As the other arrow flies towards you put up to bite on the towel.
And it's gonna get a natural one.
It sails off in the win.
Okay. With that, it is Felix.
I'm going to cast...
Who's 21?
Who's 21?
Yeah.
Flaming sphere.
Okay.
At a third level.
I'm gonna cast it right here.
Okay.
So I'll put this one.
bad boy right there.
As a bonus action, she's got to ram it
into him so he takes damage.
Okay. Rammon. Which is going to be, what does it say?
It's when he casts a spell of throw, it was an increase
for 1D6 for everything.
So it's going to be 3D6
of fire damage. He has to make a dexterity
saving throw. Okay.
Tim Ironball. We'll remember that.
Fails.
All right. So he's going to take 5, 9, 10,
11 damage.
11 damage to number. What number is that?
One? Or is that 7?
It's number 7.
Number seven, 11 points of fire damage.
As a flame sphere erupts, and almost as it's passing,
as you're passing through, flying through,
it almost just this creature runs into it,
taking some fire damage.
You're just to see the storm dispersing
as the flames does a good amount of damage.
That's badass.
Luffy, you're up.
Okay.
With my quick and lightness of feet,
I am going to quickly run out onto the wing.
And I'm gonna do an unarmed attack
and then a fury blows onto this number two.
Okay, make an acrobatics check
and see how well you do that.
No, Mike.
Just know.
Okay.
Forbatics.
Okay.
It's 15.
15, that's enough.
You manage to just use your monk training
to run out along the wing
and you swim your spoon in at this creature.
Okay.
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
I'm gonna plus eight.
Okay, so this is three attacks long.
17 plus 8.
12.
12 misses.
And 16.
16 has.
Okay.
Booth bar crew.
That's...
Sorbet.
Sorbet.
Yeah.
Sorbet.
18 total damage.
18 total damage number...
It's number two.
Number two.
It's used to the full amount of you are slicing.
you're dispersing this creature's form.
And then I will, as a thing that goes along with that tipsy sway
and disengage back to counterbalance.
Okay.
So it tilts a little bit, and you manage to get back into the carriage, and it levels out a bit.
Okay.
What's that?
It is a heart's turn, and she is going to climb out and try to help tow with the reins,
and she'll also look at toes like,
Hey, I can get this.
You can do a lot more than I can.
Who's, who's you?
And with...
I give her the reins.
And she is going to make an athletics check,
and she managed to do it,
and she grabs the reins and pulls.
And, okay, that's what she does.
All right, drop.
I am going to look out the window
towards what's his fuck.
And I am going to cast...
No, no worse.
I'm going to cast blight on him.
Okay.
At a fourth level.
And that's what it is?
Is that a saving throw?
Yeah, it's a constitution saving throw.
I hope that he knows it.
I mean, it takes damage anyway.
It's just whether he takes the pole now.
Nope.
Tom is a 17.
He passes.
Okay.
Does anyone have any V8s?
Yes.
20.
There's eight of them.
Here you go.
There's two more.
Oh, thanks.
A lot of D8s.
K-L-L-L.
Okay, L-L.
Now I get eight.
Yeah.
That sounded great.
I can't wait to catch fireball.
Oh, no.
We can't just wait some horrible.
Right, right, it's horrible.
You take 16 points of necrotic damage.
16 points of necrotic damage.
As Iris, you look out and you extend your paw and you see this corrupting magic
out towards this hoax.
As it starts to extend from your paws and claws all over this aerococry.
It rends his flesh.
You start to see his feathers start to decay and almost wrought off.
Does he look like he's concentrating on a spell?
Make a perception check.
No, I have no idea.
Okay.
Banner should be easy to make into a cupcake or just take one of those plastic forks or knives
and stab it right into the roll right into the cupcake.
With that, it is for his turn.
I'd like to take the cupcake and stab in the face.
Big Bad, he's holding a bow.
And he's spearing a knife.
Okay, and it appeared that there was some sort of arcane magic coming from the bow, the arrow,
thing shot? Is he glowing? Because I still have to detect magic. He is, is he within 30 feet of
you? No, he's beyond 30 feet. Yeah. Yeah. So, you notice the arrows seem to have been kind of
radiating with this, like, death magic. I don't know. Yeah. It's only people that got shot.
Okay. Which would have been Joe.
Which would have been Joe's. So you wouldn't know about the dead magic. How about this guy's also got a bow?
No, those are like the feathered servants.
They're just creatures.
Some sort of creature.
They're doing like ranged attacks?
They haven't gone yet.
Okay, so we have no idea what they're.
Are they holding weapons?
No, they're just these flapping, they're snakes that have wings,
but they're made out of like storm clouds.
Okay.
Does it look like Caprice has a pretty good hold on the owls?
He does not.
Okay.
I look like shit right now.
And it's an action to try and steady them?
Yeah.
Okay.
Can I study them and take the Dodge action like Towa did?
Yeah, I think that's fine.
Okay.
So I'll do that.
Okay.
And I'll get up next to Caprice and knock them over with my butt.
I think I got this.
You probably got it better than I do.
And I also got your inspiration, right?
That's why I gave it to you.
It's a D8.
It's a D8.
It's an athletics.
Yep.
I will save this.
Yeah, you can decide.
21.
21.
You mean, you knock.
Caprice out very effortlessly as he grabs and holds onto it.
Priests, get those shitty towels in my pants off
and throw it at them and try to blind them.
I'll get your pants off, no problem.
And then Sloanbeck, it's his turn as he looks out
and he grabs the two axes out of his band, the Lear,
and he chucks it at the one that you had tackled to.
Let's see how he does here.
Both are going to miss.
As two is a sail, and they fly down to the forest floor.
I was like, oh, no, no.
And with that, it is the serpent's turn,
as they are going to all move 40 feet.
Is it two hands to steer the?
Yes.
OK, so I can't have my shield out?
No, you have to do that.
And so they are going to.
OK.
OK.
OK.
OK.
Here's a nice to do.
because they're all going
as it fly into the windows here
you can't always twist up I think
that was twist off the other ones and not
can we move those
those four next to
to around the business yeah I have one quick question
to the other people
before we saw the owls to see you guys
it's been a long
yeah he should fly in and try to get to you
understand like the time frame.
Can they like kind of come within this or do they have to stay outside?
I don't know we've had a long rest since we left there garden.
I guess my point is, well.
And then can you move that one next to her?
Can they, like this guy back here, can he come within the circle?
He's gonna fly into the carriage.
So you see this creature fly and it's a medium,
creature's able to, all of a sudden there's this serpent made out of storms all around you.
And they are all going to make attacks.
or most of them are gonna make attacks.
So we're gonna get one on Phoenix.
I have to you.
I miss, AC of 16, because I still have my major armor up.
That's what I'm trying to figure out.
16.
16.
It hits me.
Okay.
So it's going to bite into you and you feel that it does eight points of thunder damage.
That's what I'm thinking.
How much?
Eight points of thunder damage.
As you feel this concussed glass next to you.
One is going to attack turn.
And one is going to attack Toa.
Dude, that is going to be...
I lost concentration.
21.
He's the Spanish stuff.
I saw the doddrop.
21.
Same as the same role.
And that's going to...
That's going to be 12 points of thunder damage.
And then the other one is going to breathe and
this clasp of thunder as is trying to knock
knock back everyone here. I need everyone in this carriage, in each carriage to make a
dexterity savings. Plus three if you're within 10 feet of me.
Plus three? Yep. Fine, thank you.
Eight. And the dexterity? Oh, wait, us too? Yep, two of them are doing.
Four. Four? Okay.
Oh, stupid. Steeping first.
More like ass. 18?
Twenty-four.
18. Okay. So those that fail are going to take six.
How do we know if we fail?
Oh, sorry, the DC is 12.
Okay.
So anyone below 12 is going to take six points of thunder damage.
And the, whoever has the reins needs to make an acrobatic check,
or an athletic check, it's a damage.
Anything above failure, if you pass?
If you pass, you don't think it.
For us?
Oh, our heart has ours.
Yes.
Okay.
So what?
You need to make an ethic,
you manage an acrobatic check,
to make sure you hold up in the leg.
An athletic check, it's a damage.
Did someone take damage?
Someone take damage in this carriage?
Yes.
Would I have been able to perceive that?
I would say, I would like to use Spear Guardians or Spear Arm.
We both have damage, it doesn't matter.
I'll just, yeah.
So on Iris, I hear her say, hoot.
And you produce that damage by 11.
That who?
Oh, so I take no damage.
Boy, shit.
Oh, thanks.
So, magpie dice, sir.
I got an eight on athletics.
to hold on the birds.
You also have inspiration.
I have inspiration.
So you can use it, but you can also not get higher than ten.
It's a few.
If you're in break.
I don't want to lose.
All right.
That's a 13 to hold on to the birds.
13.
So you manage to hold on.
It is very precarious.
And you feel like you're going to lose the grip
when you manage to hold onto the reins.
And Hartgut manages to do the same thing.
And then we're going to get attacks on...
Is it lightning damage sticks?
Thunder damage.
Six.
That's gonna be 19 on Herja.
To hit?
Yep.
That hits.
It's going to deal.
I take the dodge, I was thinking the dodge, actually.
I don't know if that.
Disavage.
That is going to miss.
As you mean to dodge out of the way,
Caprice, you're going to take an attack.
That's going to be a 21 to hit.
That's going to be seven points of thunder damage and then Luffy.
That's going to horribly miss.
You mean it's a dodge out of the way.
Okay.
that next to me.
You did you do both attacks?
This is one.
Yep.
One used the brass and the other use the I would draw.
With that is Toll.
I'm not.
Toll, you're up.
Oh, I will, I guess after handing my mall,
or handing him, handing apart the reins,
I will take my mall, I will use my bonus action to rage.
Okay.
And then I will, is it reckless acts,
is reckless attack a bonus action as well?
Let me see here.
And you can just state it.
So I'm going to recklessly attack,
with power attacks, those attacks.
So I'm going to go for six first.
Which everyone's closest to heart.
I'm up there protecting heart.
So 15, or?
No, not 15.
What's my question you say?
It's eight.
So 13 to hit.
13 to hit.
13 to hit on which guy?
On number.
It doesn't hit either of them.
Okay.
Both miss.
Okay.
With that, it is Kriese turn.
It's my turn.
Two turn.
Um, okay.
A slender wave of the second level.
I'll turn to, uh, in my Owley form, I'll turn to these two guys.
And, uh, I'll pull out my, my viola.
Okay.
I'll brang!
And I'll spray out a...
a bunch of magical, weaving energy.
They need to both make constitution saving proof DC16.
Okay, natural one that's gonna fail.
And one is going to succeed.
Okay, the one that fails if pushed back 10 feet away.
That's gonna be number one that failed, so 10 feet away.
Which way?
Which way?
Just away from me out of short view.
Yeah.
Okay.
And then the one that failed takes 10 points of thunder damage and the one that succeeds takes half.
So as you do this, you see strung that power core and it burst out.
And although one does seem to get knocked back, it seems to not disrupt their form at all,
as they seem to be made of thunder and lightning.
Okay.
And with that, it is the Aero-Cogers term.
As you see as the...
Wait, do I get a sense that it took a do of...
Yes.
I feel like the beats about to drop.
Exactly.
And you get the sense as this,
um,
this Erakokra is flying around and its one eye is scanning the room,
both of the, uh, the carriages,
and it pulls out a crystal.
And it looks at it.
And it immediately turns eyes towards, uh, both of you.
And it flies, uh,
just gonna fly
60 feet.
That's a lot.
That's enough.
This one?
Towards me?
Towards the wing.
Towards the wing?
Yeah, try to fly right next to the wing.
Yeah, you can get anywhere.
He can get him.
Just like next to it or like on it.
He's gonna fly outside
and he's going to look in
and as he's looking at the crystal,
he's going to look at you.
And who's you?
Who's you?
Lifting.
Okay.
And as, and it's, you see this talent emerged as this orange eye is peering at you, the other milky, white, loon one is completely expressionless.
And you see there is a flash and glow.
Counter-spell.
Okay, at a fourth level from my Ring of Spell story.
You cancel command.
And as you counterspell the command that ends up.
He lets out a hiss as he looks back towards you.
And that's his fucking turn.
Okay.
Felix, you're out.
You're the best.
Yeah, I did I get.
I lost concentration on the attack,
so I'm going to cast Flaming Sphere again at a third spell.
Third level.
And I'm going to drop it right here.
Using my bonus action to, I guess, ram it into seven again.
Okay.
Ram it.
So, D.C. safe?
Yep.
That's going to be a.
12. 16 is what kind of needed.
I forgot to use the tower, so that's going to be
14 points of damage. To number
7. Number 7. 14 points.
It's really good.
It's looking rough as these fleers slams into it again.
It started struggling to maintain its full on.
Okay. With that, it is Lifty's turn.
Okay, I am willing to try to like
Brownhouse kick this guy.
Yeah. Because, oh, they can fly to.
Yeah.
Okay, I'm still gonna roundhouse kick then.
Okay.
I'm gonna just do it twice.
So I'm gonna roundhouse kick and then follow around with that.
Yep.
A 13 meter?
13 barely misses.
Woo!
Oh.
Natural 20.
Do you know.
Do you know.
Do you know.
I'm not going to do the mic, because I want to preserve my vocal cords.
Yeah.
So I think that is never meaning some of that.
That was true for my.
Oh, wait, I just don't want to six, right?
Yeah.
Okay, so...
Oh, no, you roll double the dice.
So six and three.
Okay, so six into three and then...
Do I do the plus two?
Yeah.
Only the, only the dice.
So 14 damage.
14 damage to number...
What number is he?
Three.
So he hasn't been hit.
As you smack in and it misses,
but then you bring up your...
or you miss the kick and then you bring your elbow back around and it just bursts through and it loses form and then maintains it barely and it's it's looking at the
cool and a heart's going to be like hey you guys who got this and he's gonna make an athletics check and that is going to succeed okay with that it is our sister um I'm gonna turn to um the guy the big Al guy and I'm gonna cast a spell match
on him. Oh, okay. So if he's holding, actually, I'm going to do it on the crystal in his hand.
Bigot. Got it. Okay. So, and it's a fourth level. So if it's a fourth level,
spell that's on it, so basically I can do it on a creature, object, or magical effect is in range,
spell of fourth level or lower is automatically dropped, it's higher, I just rolled.
Okay, so as this
as this Eryokra has
its bow on its back and any spell. So if it's more than one,
but all one. But I choose one creature, object, your magical. Yeah, but any
spell on the target ends. Yeah, so if it has
multiple spells on it, all of them out. Right, right. And so as
you see that this crystal is glowing, you look outside. And I want to try and do it
sneak, since he's not looking at me, I don't want him to know. I don't want him to
notice. So hopefully he thinks, oh, it must have, it must not be working on that.
Okay, let me just...
My plan.
Look, is that humming?
That's what friends are for.
Okay.
Well, as he's holding in his talent and you see, Iris, you peek your face out from the carriage,
and you see this battered-looking Barnel-Aricotra flying,
and both of its weapons are on its back.
on its back and is looking directly into the other carriage.
And you see, however, this glowing crystal.
And it seems to be of a similar style to the one that Zorbeck had had.
But this one seems to be far larger, glowing,
with more magic than, far more magic than the one that Zorbeck had had.
You make a stealth check, I suppose,
would be how you do it stealthily.
And against...
I was hoping just because he wasn't looking at me.
No, that all effect did he say...
Where is Zorbeck?
he's on your chariot
he doesn't have a token either is
13 oh okay
but there's he does not notice at all
as the crystal
begins to glow and hum as it starts to point in
look these directions but it's starting to glow with something
else and you reach out your paw
and with a quick puff
of magic suddenly
the crystal which was once glowing
is completely inert
and the
air cobra looks down at it
and the eye it's eye of white
and it lets out this horrifying shriek,
and it begins to look all around and is absurdly angry.
And I want you, Ferrofti.
Yeah.
With that, it's hernia.
Does it look like, is he shaking it?
Is he trying to fix it?
He's just noticed that it's done,
and so that's where we are in the round of combat.
Um, have I noticed that it, she did that?
she did that?
I would say, oh, if you're holding on the reins, definitely not.
You're looking straight ahead.
Okay.
Do I have to hold on the reins every turn?
Yes.
You can give it to me.
Right, or you hand them off to someone.
To Zorback.
The problem is that it's an action and it's an acrobatics instead of an acrobatics.
If I could use my acrobatics would be in the money, but my money is a nice.
Right.
I guess I'll just do the dog's back and keep holding on it.
Okay, if you want to hand the reins to Zorbec, you can you down.
I feel like he's strong enough to handle him as a bug bear?
He's a large bug bear.
So yeah.
Dordig, do you mind doing these, please?
Anything you're asked.
Do I need to send next to you?
Yeah.
I pass a seat next to me.
He takes the rain and he makes an athletics check.
And yeah, and he grabs it.
And although he's in the form of an air of poker,
he maintains the strength that he had as a bug bear,
and hews it, and the owls maintain their altitude.
I give him a good squeeze on the shoulder.
Is that an action to hand him the reins?
I would say that would be your free object interaction.
Okay, cool.
So I haven't noticed that the thing is he's just looking at the ball?
Yeah, so you're looking straight ahead.
I would say to do all that, you're looking straight ahead.
Okay, but I know that if I turn to the left, that he's right there.
Yeah.
Right?
Is he still holding his bow?
No.
Okay, do I know where, like if he stowed it?
It's not as bad.
So the only thing he's holding is this bow?
Yes, yes.
Okay.
12.
I'm going to cast
command on him as well.
And he has to make a
DC-14 wisdom series.
That would be a 22.
Okay. Nothing happens there.
Okay. With that, it is Zorbeck's turn.
As he is going to,
as you say that he's commanding words
and it seems to have no effect, he resisted,
he's looking around angerly.
With that, it's Zorbeck's turn.
As he grabs the reins, he is finally out, and he's looking around, and he is going to make his check.
And he does not succeed this time as it slips.
And he looks back and he says, oh, no, I know Tyberg the silent death.
Oh, God.
And he slips.
It starts to shake.
He's pointing at this guy saying that's Tybal for the Silent Death?
Tybor?
Tyber, T-Y-B-R, the Siler Death.
That's a great name.
The River.
T-Y-B-U-R.
Not T-I-B-E-R.
And the carriage begins to rock.
I need all three of you and that carriage.
So Herja, Caprice, and Lifty to make it next certain table.
Plus three.
Is the ace?
Over 14?
The DC, was it?
I don't know.
I had plus 13, so I didn't know if I was able.
Natural.
Oh, yeah.
Yay!
17?
17, Herza.
11.
11.
So, Herja, you, with this,
as you're handing off the reins,
you begin to slide back
and you fall out of the seat.
as you have one chance
to try to grab onto something.
I grab onto the
athletic check.
The drapes.
Make an athletic check.
College is a twist.
Why we need our faithful followers
is a different one.
That's pretty.
That's better, yeah, thank you.
18.
18. So I'm going to say
that you need knocked back
10 feet out onto the wing.
As the carriage rocks before
So yeah, before Zorbeck gets it as this owl is directly now in front of you.
And Zorbek says, oh, I'm sorry!
As he finally regains the fear somewhat suppressed now.
And with that, it is the serpent's turn as they are going to...
Am I just standing or am I prone, like, gripping on the...
You're prone, you're gripping onto the wang here.
Okay.
And with that, the...
These serpents are all going to attack.
And one is, however, is going to once again let out a burst.
Everyone make a dexterity saving throw, please.
Which one?
Dexterity.
Both of each of various.
All marriages?
All marriages?
Oh.
Or again.
I don't know.
Nice suck.
15.
Natural fuck.
Plus what, Maya.
25?
25.
That succeeds.
D.C. is 12.
I failed.
I failed.
10.
10.
Everyone that fails takes nine points of thunder damage.
It rocks once again, and each of the person at the reign,
so both the NPCs are going to make their athletic check again
to see if they can hold onto it.
Can I use my shield master ability here
to negate the damage completely with the dexterity saving throw?
If that's how it works, I would say that that would make sense.
Yes.
If I pass to it, then I take no damage.
Oh, you don't take half of the different path.
You take nothing.
With that,
they both managed to hold onto the reins,
and then we're going to get some attacks.
We're going to get one on Toa.
That is going to be a 21.
Uh-oh.
Other advantage.
Oh, well, okay.
We'll see him crits you.
He doesn't know.
Thank you, though, for being so honest with me.
Of course.
Maintaining game stage, you're more.
Seven points of thunder damage.
I see every time I can.
I don't think you can do damage at all.
One is going to be a 14 on Felix.
Yeah.
A miss.
Okay, and the other one is going to be an eight.
They both miss.
And then one is going to, they've got knocked back,
it's going to fly back up to you, Caprice.
Nice, cool.
Can you present two?
We've got this, for something to increase.
And they're going to get two attacks on him.
One is going to be a 17, and the other is going to be a 13.
What?
What?
We're a snake man.
Sneakman.
10 points of thunder damage, and then one on lifting.
Ow!
That's got a mess.
You're dying.
Thanks, Abby.
Thank you.
Toa.
Even though my dice really suck.
I'm telling me there with deepest again.
I'm going to...
I'm just going to keep going in on number six here.
I'm sorry.
Did all of the serpents make their turns?
Yes.
These two remain to five feet within...
in this, so they're going to take some damage.
Let me figure it out while he takes his turn.
Yep.
There we go.
I really like this and guys.
So it's, uh.
Oh, you should make a deck saving threat for each of them.
Oh, seven on one, but 17 on the other.
On what?
On number six.
So number six is 17.
Yeah.
Uh, good.
I love this owl.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, 28 damage.
28 damage.
You smashed into the mall.
It's hard.
Uh, look you did it.
Wow, that's so cool.
Oh, my, okay, I'm focused.
And it smashes through, and it's looking very rough.
So 8 and 7 have to make dex checks.
8 and 7.
16 is the DC.
They both fail.
8 points of damage.
8 points of damage, 8 and 7?
Yes.
That is enough.
Number 7 disperses as the flame burst into it and lets out
this rumbling hiss as it dies.
And, okay.
Okay.
Rock and roll.
With that, it is...
Who serves as it?
Toos, right? What bricks are up?
Do I get the sense that this guy's flying by magical means at all?
The big doze with the eye?
The owl?
The owl, he is his wings.
He's using his movement to keep up with us and fly around.
Okay.
You know that Eric Cobra can hover and fly and keep up with him.
Yeah, all right.
I'll, well, first I'll give Zorbach a slap on the back.
I'll be like, you do not let this owl fall, all right?
You take care of business.
I give him an inspiration, and then I run over to just where the,
we're herjid is sort of like that.
I'll probably trigger two a tactical opportunity to do that right now.
Natural one and a six.
Okay.
And then I'll lean out the window and I'll yell to the big dude.
Who looks like an owl kokra and can't fly and have two thumbs?
this guy and I'll try not to point at myself and I'll make like this weird flapping motion.
And he's gonna have to make a wisdom saving throw, Tasha's Hinius laughter to see if I can get him to be incapacitated.
He is a natural 20.
Oh no.
Wow.
20.
So he's a 20.
That was a terrible way to frame that joke.
That's right.
Oh, I've had that place.
14.
23.
Oh, hey.
No.
As you say that joke and he just, the anger and the hatred swelling, he does not even process it at all.
And the magic of the weed does not even do anything.
With that, it is hurt his turn.
As he is going to take it and look at it and he's looking around angrily and with a single motion, just chucks the crystal.
And it falls down, completely useless.
Wow.
as looks around and thinks for a moment.
Arrow is really open.
And with that, he's going to look at Lofti one more time
as he's going to fly back and once again his eye,
his red, orange eye, blows.
And once again, third level.
Third level.
That may make a difference.
I don't think it does.
I'm doing a third level this time.
Nope.
Nope.
So, yeah, no.
He's casting at a third level and it does not matter.
as the eye, once again, it flares up and then dissipates as he looks around and begins to fly,
he's going to use his movement to fly 60 feet behind you, both, you all.
Oh.
Like behind the carriage, like around?
Or like, just straight back.
Right there.
And there's right there and he's looking at you.
Yep.
Okay.
Oh, God.
With that, it is, Fieldf's turn.
I'm going to move the flaming sphere with my bonus act.
action and ram it into number eight. So Dex DC 16? Yep. 14. Fails, but it's still only five damage.
It's number eight. And then I'm going to use my action to just cast a cantrip, uh, which is going to be fireboats.
Okay. Uh, on number eight. You got it. Uh, 17. 17. Yeah, that hits.
2d10.
in there. The hit, oh shit. The hit is plus eight. So nine plus eight is 17.
Okay. It should be roped in there. Four points of fire damage.
Number eight. So you're just firing this fire damage into him.
Okay. With that, it is a Lifty's turn. Okay. I am going to, again, I'm going to jab number
three with my spoon and try to knock him back some...
26?
26.
That hits, yeah.
Wow, that's wrong.
That is 11 damage.
Okay.
That is 11 damage.
Okay.
You're still smashing Annie.
He's looking bloodied if you can judge that from a win certain creature.
Okay, and then I'm going to spend another key point to period for those.
Rock and roll.
There's no additional.
So you have two attacks, right?
14.
Oh, and 12.
12 misses, 14 minutes.
Oh, that was fuller.
Six damage.
Six damage.
He's looking rough.
And I will just move away with him for a free discage.
Okay.
You dodge back.
This serpent is inside the carriage,
flapping, it's storming wings.
I'm going to actually kind of hide behind.
Good for you know, knowing the bad guys.
You see a heart take the range.
He's pulling and he's like, I got the truth.
Please.
And that's her turn.
Iris, you're up.
I am going to.
Does he look like he's flying away?
He's flying away, and he's, as soon as he reaches there,
he's turned back.
So it doesn't look like he's retreating.
Yeah, not yet.
He's just doing.
He's tactically going to fuck us.
So I am going to cast spirit guardians.
Okay.
So, and I'm going to move basically in between Toh and Felix.
Rock and roll.
Toe and Felix are immune to it, but the other guys are within 15 feet of me, I believe.
Yeah.
Everyone rolled below eight.
And so they have to make...
They all roll below at 13.
Okay, so then they all fail, so they'll take the max damage from that.
And that's my turn.
So I'll let you know the damage is I meant.
Sure thing.
So we roll damage. You heard you. What are you doing?
I'm thrown on the wing.
Yes.
Can I get up and walk carefully into the carriage?
Yeah, I would make an acrobatics check to see how well you do.
There we go.
21.
21. The fear of this, you managed to ramble your way back.
How much damage?
Half move it.
I rolled three ones.
I mean, I'll get so.
Three.
Got it.
X is close to...
They all take three days.
That's far as I can get.
Sorry, I never grabbed your pants or your head or the towel.
Oh, it's all right.
And I'm going to try to cast command on the Big Bad again.
Okay, what's the range on that?
60 feet.
60 feet? Yeah, that should be enough.
Dix 14.
As you do that, Iris, you once again cast your Sandy and Nubian warriors as they're all going around slicing into these.
However, it seems that these ones are able to dodge most of the just getting clipped.
And with that, it's going to be command.
Let's see.
Wow, he's wrong.
Huh.
That's going to be 21.
Yeah, nothing happens.
Okay.
So you try the command, and once again, the anger in his one good eye is palpable here.
With that, Zorbeck is going to try to grip the reins here, try very hard.
And once again, he is going to fail.
Oh, I'm sorry.
No!
No!
What?
Inspiration.
Oh, he does have inspiration.
Nice.
Okay.
Let's see.
He needs, we'll see.
That's a seven.
That's enough.
And I feel so inspired.
I got your brats.
Are back.
Thank you, Tim.
As he does that, and with that, it is going to be their turn.
And, oh, he can't do that.
And one of them is going to use Thunder clap.
They've, oh no.
Each of them is going to, so everyone make a 30 saving throw, please.
It's their turn, so those guys have to make their save.
Got it.
14, 13, and two.
Three.
They all fail again.
So they take 13.
16 points of radiant damage.
Let's actually do this real quick.
Five is taking 16.
Okay.
They're all taking six.
I see.
It's got to be close.
Five, eight.
Sixteen?
Yep.
And six.
Uh, eight.
The Nugan slices it down.
That was the one that was actually going to breath.
And so it's not going to be doing that anymore.
And then what was the other one?
Six.
Six.
I did a big...
The slices down as they disappear.
And only one is left.
And it seems to be this mindless creature is going to make an attack on Felix.
That is going to be 17.
17.
It's a shield.
Okay.
A shield emerges and it clangs off against it.
I'm doing it from my ring of spell storing, so I'm out of...
God, I've never gotten to use it, I got to use it twice in this fight.
Got it alive, I've exhausted my spell story.
And, however, they are...
We still need to charity saving through it from this carriage here.
22?
Oh, from Math, not 15.
15?
I was...
Okay, so you all managed to take no damage as you steady yourself as the clap of thunder echoes of
around you and they are going to all slither in here.
We're gonna get two up on Luffy there.
The other one's gonna scale around here
and one up on Hersia.
There we go.
Okay, as they're gonna surround you.
We're gonna get two attacks on Luffy,
natural 20.
That being said, right as that happens,
the lightning strikes.
And I look like I may have shifted a couple feet
from where I actually was,
you're disadvantaged because of my ring.
Oh, that's right.
You wear it on my pinky.
That's right.
And you manage, it hits and it looks like it,
but the illusion of the drunken elephant is,
it does not hit you.
That's what we call a pro-vandras move.
So is it all tax or disadvantage against you?
Just the, just before I take damage.
Displacer.
No, but it's, it's, it's,
until I take damage.
Yeah, every round, everybody's disdivage against her
until she takes damage,
then it falls to that round
than on her next turn.
The cloak of displacing.
Caprice.
He's actually gonna get a natural 20, though,
unless there's a way that I...
Wait, for retail is it's an actual money,
I'm gonna use my reaction to impose a Spanish with my shield.
Rock and roll.
Yeah, no, that's gonna be a nine, okay.
Yay!
And so you shake up your shield
and bash this serpent in the face.
Oh, thanks, Roger.
As we're gonna get one on Hersia.
Bring it!
That is gonna be 22.
Don't care, fucking hits.
And it's going to bite into you for 14 points of thunder damage.
Perfect.
That's all of their turns.
With that, it is Thomas' turn.
Well, given that I am not born the reins in New York.
This, please save me.
I will attempt to climb back into the carriage and get over here.
If I can.
Make an athletics check to see how will you do that.
Good.
That'll do.
18. Yeah, no.
That's it. You don't know that.
He says.
The carriers
creaks with each movement
of Toa's massive form.
It lurches down. It lurches down
every single. I have a question.
He is still a medium-sized creature, though,
correct? Yeah. Okay. Yes.
So he still weighs the same.
Well, he's a way the same.
No. He doesn't.
The size.
More, but he is still...
He is a...
He is a...
He is a thing, dragging, everything else in more.
I mean, you still weigh the same as normal, you, though you are a bird.
Fuck.
So, dimension door to you.
But you look like a bird.
Well, no, no.
So you can't dimension.
Oh, yes.
Everyone says, I can't take more than the weight.
So he's not lighter because it looks like that.
I can't think you want.
But it says a creature of the same size.
It's conflicting, right?
Well, no.
So the weight is just what you're holding.
You can take a creature that's medium size or below.
It says you can't dimension door them if you couldn't lift it.
I don't believe that's what it says.
Either way, I'll figure it out.
I'm going to attack twice with reckless attack.
Reckless attack.
Um, um.
That is a 18 to hit.
And a...
As long as their weight doesn't exceed very good.
But I know that we don't usually use in cover it, so I don't know how that counts.
Yeah.
But it says a creature of the same size.
46 standards to number five.
Mike and allows Sylvie to take me to do.
25?
Because it wouldn't make sense for...
25.
To number what?
That she can't.
Right.
Right.
You smash your mall through.
You're not carrying the person.
I have 100% agree.
I just didn't know.
I didn't know.
And then.
just real quick.
I want to make sure
that there's nothing
I want to do.
I would like to
do, I think I had
I put you left.
I was not full help
when we started this.
You know,
if you want heels,
you should speak to the healer
and not just sit there
and say nothing about your health.
I will do nothing else.
I'm just going to...
That's why my max movement,
I'm going.
Okay.
With that,
It is
A natural tiny one.
All right, I'll turn back to Bachar.
No, I can't really give him back.
I'll be like, Zorbach.
Good job, just keep us steady so I can play my music.
And I'll turn and I'll continue to fiddle at the eyeball dude
and I will sing.
I believe you can't soar.
I believe you'll die on the forest floor.
And I'm going to have to polymorph him.
Okay.
He has to make a...
Another little wee one.
What is it?
It's a wisdom saving throw, DC16.
I really like the before.
We need to.
Perlvanacular 16.
Out of God.
19.
And he succeeds.
All just keep trying.
So he's flapping and you're playing and for whatever reason just through the storms and his anger.
It is not sticking.
Oh, it is Big Bat's turn.
He is going to fly off.
face.
And he is going to fly directly above you.
So he's going to go up probably about 30.
Yeah, probably we'll just say, we'll just say.
Pythagoras is a dick.
But he's up there.
I mean, that's so I'm going to put him here, but he is directly above us.
And he is going to pull out his bow and fire the arrows fly through and he's going to shooting at the owls.
What?
I'm waiting for this.
Wait, us owls?
No, the owls that are probably carried.
They're trying to take us out.
He's trying to make the carriages drop so he die.
Now we see.
Oh, wow.
One, he gets a natural one.
It does not hit.
The other one, however, does fire and hit.
On our carriage or theirs?
It was on your house carriage.
No!
That is a grappling work?
Uh, contest.
It's a athletic contest with the park in him,
be acrobatics. Once you're grappled, they have zero movement, but they can still do everything else.
It can prevent their movement. It fires out and it hits the owl and, shockingly, because I rolled so
terribly, the owl's barely hanging on and it's flapping, looking like it's on the verge of death.
And despite this glowing black arrow, it's, the owl's barely hanging on. That is going to be
his turn.
He's going to
Yeah, that's going to be his business.
With that, it is, da-da-da-da, da-da,
feels turned.
A mega tonne.
A mega tonne.
All right, fuck, he moved, oh, he's way up though.
Yeah.
How far up is he?
30 feet.
I would say he's 30 feet above you guys, yeah.
Because he's 60, yeah, 30 feet.
By that, that goes.
Yeah, I don't have a mega-tun single target shitter.
All right, I'm going to, I'm going to move,
and my bonus action moved the six.
30 feet, 510, 15, 20, 25, 30.
And then I'm going to fire bolt him.
Okay.
Which is just going to be an attack of plus eight,
which is going to be 22.
Oh, 22. That does that.
Probably would.
2D. 10 damage?
Yep.
10.
10 points of fire damage to him.
Okay.
Because I think it's got a range of like 120 feet.
Okay.
You let the arrow fly and it
pierces, or the
bolt fly, it pierces in,
singeing the feathers, burning some of this cloak.
He lets out a screech.
And with that, it is Lilley's turn.
I'm sure to re-position.
It's my turn.
I'm going to...
It's the sputton.
I'm going to hold a little.
You're going to home right, please.
I'm going to whip around and smack one with the spools.
Number one.
Yep.
Okay.
Natural.
Natural one.
That's...
You got it.
You got to give it up to one.
Right.
Hard a minute.
Hard limit.
Five.
And I double this?
You roll two.
Yeah, double all your dice.
So nine plus five is 14.
Damage to number one.
Okay.
14 damage.
How's he looking?
He had not been hit hurt at all.
Oh, of course he had.
Number one?
Oh, number one.
I think he was the big guy.
No, no, no, no, no.
Yeah, no.
So number one is the only one that had, number one, number four, totally untouched.
Then I am going to spend another key point in period glows.
Okay.
Are you going to lose?
I'm not for friends.
That sounds.
Yeah, shit.
13 plus 8.
That's what.
And 19 plus 8.
My name is 8.
Those dikes are doing that.
I know, right?
Good.
So 18 total damage.
Fuck yeah.
After the first one.
That's the second number.
18, that's enough as you just smack
and just beat this thing and lets out this rumble of thunder as it is totally dispersed.
Okay.
Once again, heart is a lot of,
going to maintain the reins and she is going to fail and she's like oh I don't have it
and it's so wet and slips and so I need you guys to make I think I think soaric saving
thrills please hey I'm sorry 20 16 16 you feel it you stumble down fold out you
knock and fold down and get just rolled back to the back of the carriage
You're prone and you're going to take three points of bludging damage as you hit the back of the ball
I succeed my concentration. Okay with that it is
the iris turn. It is iris or you this? Iris! Iris! How are the both of them, how are you guys looking? I'm literally inspecting you about it. I'm beat up. Roughly, I'm well below bloody. I'm not, I'm not bleeding, but I'm beat up. I love rough.
Well below like well works off.
third of my maximum hit points, you might say.
I'm a half.
Is one of you, okay, so I'm going to turn to.
Okay.
I'm gonna look at you both,
and I'm just gonna cast masculine word.
Okay. I mean, I love that.
No, actually, I'm not.
I mean, I'm not about that.
So, yeah, I'm just going to touch Toa and cast Curewit.
Okay.
Can I think about you?
You put your paw on,
you need to see, it feels warm sandiness,
as the wounds start to close up a bit.
Herzegh, you're up.
Let me know how much?
10.
Nice.
The owl is barely hanging on,
but we haven't started plummeting yet?
Not, well, it's starting, it's maintaining.
It's not dead yet.
You haven't started plummeting.
It's still going, but it's rough.
It's herky, dirty.
Is it, um, are, and so how far are we off the ground
at this point?
Can we not see the ground?
I mean, you can see the ground,
but it's way below.
I know, we're fine.
We will be fun.
We will be caught.
It's like, we'll take how many,
that hundreds of these
I'm trying to determine if we should land.
We should start going towards the ground.
I mean, that's up to whoever's control.
Well, you can certainly shout a command to Zorbeck if you'd like.
I would think the amount of time it would take for us to land if every round six seconds would be like.
Well, I'm thinking they're having a hard enough time keeping them in control a lot.
They're not going to have any idea how to land giant al.
I mean, you can certainly try, as Mike likes to say.
Right?
So it's up to you.
You can command Zorbeck to do.
And he already said he'd do anything for you.
you, my queen.
Are the owls with it,
they're not reachable from the end of this carriage, right?
Like, I can't go and touch either of them.
You could use your movement to use an acrobatic check to try to...
They're like, it's weird.
It's a rain, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You'd have to, like, try to climb out,
and you could attempt that with an acrobatics or athletics check
if you have a movement.
Oh, really?
You could dash.
Someone needs to protect these goddamn birds.
And I don't have anything that I really do would get
through fucking fuck.
Fuck.
And in this campaign, we do can't trip spell, we can't do spell spell.
Yep, yep, yep.
Great.
Well, I'm gonna try this one last time.
I'm gonna try and cast command on him one more time.
What's the range on that?
DC 60 feet.
Okay.
DC 14, uh, DC, uh,
14, twisting safety.
Is that like all your small thoughts?
Gets a 14 exactly.
This is meter B, right?
Yeah.
So you try to command and he's unable to do that.
Okay, it is Zorbex turn.
And he managed to hold on the random.
I'm trying!
Monsters 2, they're up and they are going to,
they all use their breath, so we're just going to get attacks on each person.
We're going to get one on Lufty.
That's an actual, oh, nope, disadvantage.
That's still going to be a 17 to him.
That is going to be eight points.
Eight points of thunder damage.
Half, because I'm going to put it down.
Nice.
Oh yeah, Thunder.
Furture is going to be 21 to head.
That's going to be seven points of thunder damage.
Okay.
A decrease, that's going to be 21 to hit.
I still have my reaction so I can impose this advantage.
Yes.
Let's do that.
That's going to miss as it blocks the shields
to protect us.
Okay, that is Toa's turn.
St. Castle's in the seventh Santa.
Let me just make sure,
I don't have any javelin, do I?
Oh, you had some...
You have a boomerang.
Yeah, I'm not used my boomerang.
Oh, it'll be going for ailerons.
Oh, my Gavlins.
Yeah, you're javelins.
Oh, shit.
I do have galvents.
Yeah, I am going to go over here.
Oh, very well.
Yes.
Okay. And out the window of the carriage,
I'm going to chop two javelins.
Okay?
You do that.
Oh, hold on.
Reckles might have to be.
Is this fairy tale?
I think so.
No, it's Final Fantasy 8.
Uh,
Breaklesic...
Greatlysis, hey,
so it's not in my action,
but this is a fucking teacher.
Oh.
That girl at that place
reminds me of the speakeasy
you went to, and they had a drink called
that drink I had at that bar that one time.
Yes.
I meant to say it like minutes and minutes ago,
but your username reminds me of the best drink name ever.
So Reckless, you have to see Maylight,
so I'm just going to try to...
13. 13 misses. Oh, that's a good roll. Any, that hits.
Six.
Hold damage.
We're gonna still like some stuff?
My mom now.
Okay, so I can have one.
Yeah.
You can have one, where are those?
12. 12.
12 points of damage. Should we share? Here.
Okay, with that, it is, it is, it is,
Caput's turn.
Okay. All right.
Ladies, keep fucking these Thunder Monsters.
So Zarbok, you're doing a great job.
I'm going to give him inspiration.
Thank you.
Apparently the universe requires me to sing OC
in order for you to roll badly in them
to be affected by any of my spells.
So I'll sing, sing.
I'll sing, um,
murder to family just for their loot.
No shame because it's what my character would do.
My turns are so long you'll think that I'm cruel.
Get used to whip because I won't learn the rules.
And I will class polymorph.
Yay!
Awesome.
DC 16.
DC 16.
Okay.
I'm going to roll this publicly.
Wism is publicly.
Wism is plus three.
Lysm is plus three.
Only 16.
DC was 16?
Oh, my God.
This guy has resisted every spell we've thrown in him.
It's me.
I have one.
Everybody has one of the...
They say I'm that guy, but I have a good time.
Everyone say good time.
Such a good.
bad hygiene and manners aren't a crime they haven't kicked me out so far
yes yes um okay he's fine is he's pure uh rage and with that it is um you're rolling hot fire
tonight for this big fella i am i mean i can't deal well for mowoc the archdevil but fucking ericogra jo over here
Okay.
As this
as this owl
Ericocra looks around
and you see his orange eye is
scanning and he notices he's been
counterspelled and that
almost all of
the feathered storm
serpent are gone.
He is going to
look at all
of you and
yell out
you cannot stop. You cannot stop.
the out of tempest.
And he then
beats both of his wings
and just flies
120 feet up in the air.
So how many feet is that total, Mike?
180.
Well, plus what he's already.
He's 150.
Oh, yeah, so he's 120 plus 30.
So that'd be...
So less than 500. Yes.
Perfect.
And he begins to fly
directly upwards.
And with that,
He looks her up.
Perfect.
I stand up and I dimensioned door at him and try to grapple him.
Woo!
Okay.
Okay.
You do that.
Oh my God.
And so you look up and as he's flying away, you're going to walk out and you're going to dimension door.
So how does that work?
I can transport anywhere from 500 feet.
So I'm going to use my giant big wizard brain and try to calculate it my Pythagoras angle.
Take out the Pythagoras to dig up.
And appear at him and grapple up.
Okay.
Making a grapple check.
And then I got what?
Each round is a solid.
seconds or six seconds to come back.
No big deal.
I'm trying to six seconds.
Easy peasy.
What do I do?
So it's a contest of what kind of?
So athletics or acrobatics.
I hope we have twists.
We do.
Oh, that's actually pretty good.
20? 20?
20.
Oh, okay, I know.
If I'm using acrobatics, it's a 20.
Oh, there's a lot.
Oh, no, it would be, if you're grappling with athletics.
It's an 18.
Okay, well, then it's an 18.
An 18.
Little bit.
Okay.
A 19.
No.
Okay.
Well, for the next six seconds, I'm falling through there.
I mean, he just would bat me away, right?
And I would just start.
So, yeah, so you appear and he looks at you, surprise, and hisses at you, as you try to grab him.
And unfortunately, he elbows you and then kicks you off and you feel you're going to grab it, and then the rain is so slick.
Oh shit!
You are falling.
As I see him fall, when he gets to a point where I think I could jump and grab onto him, I will jump off and then.
I will jump off in time off.
Okay.
So, however, the field is falling through the air.
I mean, but it's only six seconds, right?
So I've got time.
Okay.
I did the math one from how far you can fall.
We'll see you're up.
Pretty fucking hard.
It takes time to reach terminal walls.
Do I see them falling?
I would say it's very obvious that these,
that there's key books that fall in the air.
How far away is he?
I, look, meta knowledge, I'm not,
I'm gonna die. I have plenty of spells.
You can be great.
Okay. All right.
Yes.
Nothing I ain't.
I don't know.
No, I'm not gonna sell.
I feel like this is sacrificing himself to take on Eric Hooper Joe, right?
I love Eric Hooper Joe.
I've got a game plan here, but do react as you would like to react.
No, I wouldn't know that. I'm jumping him out for you.
Okay.
Now I've got the meta knowledge poisoning my brain.
You don't know that though.
What do you would do?
I'm so pissed to be me.
I'm actually just kept to be attacked.
Yeah.
So I'm going to attack number.
He's still way up high.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm going to check number.
A few hundred feet, a couple hundred feet up.
24.
24 that hits.
Not a D&D.
though.
General Loss is a hundred hundred miles per hour.
I forget what?
Number what?
I have it here.
108 you're going about.
Six damage.
Six damage.
Number of loss.
It's a number of 24 miles an hour.
Okay.
You smack into it begins a loose form.
Okay.
But that doesn't avoid.
But that can go away.
On the reins.
She's fine.
Iris are up.
That hour you can like.
Like.
Like.
I'm going to look across the carriage, and I'm going to curl a guiding bolt at one of the number four.
Number four got it.
Roll and tackle.
Oh, we're using the old over the air.
When Derek wasn't here last session, I think.
Oh, yeah.
21.
21.
Yeah.
And that's going to be 5B6.
Damn.
It takes you're calling that out.
Yeah.
Because my pause screen shows them on here.
Pause screen?
I pause the stream so it's not just got me in the chat.
Oh, so long here and come that boat.
So I think we-
Weird.
21 points of radiant damage.
21 points of radium damage.
That's enough as it burst through and it dissipates.
Very nice.
Which one match?
Number four.
Okay, heard of you're up.
Seeing that I'm not doing shit with my fighting commands,
I'm just going to take a bonus action to try and knock number three prone.
Okay.
So that's athletics.
Yep.
Uh, it'll be a 23.
Uh, athletics.
There's 23.
It's not the math one risk.
I got a natural coin.
Mikey, you're fucking killing me.
Dude, you're rolling like a fiend, dude.
Can I please give some prime?
No.
Seriously.
Yeah, no, please?
No.
No.
You seriously?
No, you know, that's fucking 23.
On a super.
I rolled a natural 20.
Their strength, their athletics is plus three.
Fulship.
All right, so they're not knocked from.
I'll use my first attack.
That should hit with a 21.
21 that hits, yep. Roll image.
All right, I'm going to pump a
second level divine smite in a event.
This radiant versus bludgeoning.
Is there a...
I'll say no if it's a good thing.
14. The grade was, uh, point two, uh, step in,
29 points of dance to number one. Number three, you completely dissipate out.
Woo!
As it slows.
Get up. That's my first attack.
That's the first attack. Roll for the second. Number two.
Oh, 15. 50. 50 hits.
Yeah. Wow, it hits. All right. This is just going to be a regular
quail, uh, five damage. Five damage. It's looking very weak.
That's my turn.
Okay.
Okay?
It's looking very, very weak.
As what's his face, Zorbeck is going to try to hold on.
I got it in this time!
And the other creature is going to, it's either locked on Lofty, and it's going to hold we miss.
With that, it's to host turn.
Given that I can do literally nothing, I will actually here, obviously, I'm just going to basically ready,
ready, an attack, or if he happens to, well, no.
I would say you'd be able to see,
the carriage door is pretty large.
Yeah, he's far beyond, like, javelin range.
Oh, yeah.
So I am going to ready an action if I can kind of basically grab Felix
or make sure that he's okay if he happens to enter with the melee range.
Probably knowing that Felix, like,
Tony would know that Felix wouldn't like kill himself to stop this guy.
I don't know that.
So he's like, oh, he's probably fine, but just in case, I just want to, like, you know, basically, I want to go to Felix as soon as he's in range to make sure that he's, like, steady and stable.
He's like, can brace her up.
Um, preferated that none of my fells work.
Oh, no, I'm, I'm, you're falling.
Yes.
But I'm, so I was a couple hundred feet in the air.
So apparently, via sage advice, you fall 580 feet in a six second round of combat.
That's the five.
580 feet?
Yeah, it's good because, again, minus, you know, but.
minus 200 something and then another whatever.
I can get 500 feet back.
I'm good.
I'm going.
Big Brighton wizard.
I'm on it.
You guys, you had this feeling?
I'm good.
I'm good.
I yell out if you've got those.
You fall that far in six seconds.
That's a lot.
Well, one thousand.
Two one thousand.
Yeah, but it takes, well, that's what I'm saying.
It doesn't wait to real life, which is fine, which is fine.
Okay.
It takes time to reach terminal velocity.
I turn around my post a lot of my focus.
It's a lot.
Meaning physics of the falling lizard.
Thank you for the information.
26, that hits.
Seventh year thing.
How do you want to do this?
Stabbingly.
Very luke-borne and I'll just sort of like
spin him around like ramen.
No, I was like, playing my heart out.
I just turned around and it was like, uh.
You just go, uh-uh, and you stab him and you swirling around.
You're not even looking at it, you just plunks him in the face, and he just drops.
I do not.
I did so many resources in this fight.
I did nothing.
And he swirls around your rapier and then poofs.
Great.
And with that, it is the Eric O'Koker's turn as, feels as you're falling.
You see the winds continue to flap as it fall.
Right, he's gone.
He gone.
But I guess, because he is a piece of shit,
He's going to do the BM and as he's falling away.
Two arrows.
He's this advantage because he's marked.
I hit him with the javelin.
Oh, wait, no.
Because I went and did nothing, so never mind he's not marked.
Oh, no.
Two arrow shots.
One is going to be 20 to hit.
Shield, Aisi is 21 for the turn.
23.
One is...
So the first one I've walked is my...
When I'm walking my shield, the second one pierces my shirt.
I'll be like, fuck yourself.
And he has to reduce that by 1D8 using cutting words.
Like my reaction.
Is he in range?
Is he arranged?
What's the range on that?
I would assume it's 60 feet.
Oh, yeah.
He's a couple hundred feet in the air.
But you're going to check.
I don't forget about the wrong thing.
Let me look it up.
Uh, 15 minutes.
It should be whether or not I can hear me.
23 points of damage as the arrow stabs me.
I made bad decisions in my life.
And you feel this horrible.
the chronic magic in your flash.
With that, it is, it should be my turn.
It's turn.
I'm going to, again, Pythaggers, a big brain wizard,
tried to dimension door back to where I mentally visualize
a spot next to tell.
I would say as you're falling through and in the air,
you can see the chariots being pulled by the owls,
the one on the left of this chariot over here
is losing its, correct, because it's very injured,
but you managed to calculate and blink directly inside of the carriage.
What does it say about occupying a space that's already,
as long as I don't hit a space that's already taken?
I would say that as you see it, you'd be able to calculate it.
You do like 8,0004.
It's only 46. 46.4thames.
All right, so then I'll appear, I'll dimension door back to Toa,
and as I appear, I'm bleeding profusely,
because I have a fucking arrow sticking out of me.
And I'll be like, ah!
I tried.
I've tried.
I'm not ready to action.
I've never done it.
I tried.
I couldn't get him.
I did what I could.
Are you out of combat?
Yes.
I'm going to reach over.
I'm going to, now I'm not going to do that.
I'm just going to, yeah, I'm going to reach over and cast cure wounds on him at a second level.
Can you want to pull this out of me?
How are you guys feeling?
No, I feel fine.
I'm going to yell across to the other one.
Albert, Sunshot, Benedict Powerbottoms is a third.
I love you.
Just, it's just feelings.
It's just Felix.
I rip the air.
It hurts nine damage.
Well, I just healed you for nine helps.
It hurts like shit, but if it
it rips it out, Iris, her paws on you and you feel
this magical sandy business.
I'm sorry, I tried.
What are you going to do, even if you have grappled
and he can still fly, I can't see?
I'm gonna bring back to the carriage
and then you could have just crushed your skull in.
Can you do that mechanically?
Yes, yes.
Doesn't, it meant a knowledge to her, doesn't he have to be willing to join you in Dimension Door?
I didn't say that in the spells description.
Willard.
I answer your question.
I'm a little hurt.
I'll know right.
Let's make sure these owls are okay.
I can try to get to them and heal them up, but I have to literally touch their butts.
Can I see the owls that most hurt?
The only one has been hit.
So the one that's directly appeared on the left is,
is wounded.
Can I like grab the rock?
It wasn't going to run.
The owl?
Yeah.
I'd stop you and I'd be like, no, no, no, no.
Oh, wait.
Yeah, feeling word.
I believe I can just.
The first level spell.
I can just yell at it.
Owl!
No!
And it heals, whatever that is.
I walk over to Zorback.
How are you feeling?
Good job holding on the rains.
And I'd give him a squeeze out.
I'm sorry.
I lost the rain several times.
I feel like I'm the failure.
Yeah, it's alright. Are you feeling alright?
Oh, if you're sitting next to me, I feel better and heart looks like, is everyone who...
I'll sit next minute.
Just keep dropping the carriage, we're fine.
Are you okay?
Are you getting the hang of it?
I'm gonna use my pearl tree again as spell slot.
Okay.
It's day-dollary.
Uh, yeah, so it's like into the day.
Yeah.
Oh.
I just want to look around.
Do I see anything coming around us?
Like a guy.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Ten?
Ten?
Ten.
You look around and you see that through the storm, it's difficult to see very far, but you
see however the lights of this grand city appearing and you can closer and closer.
As you seem to have arrived, you start to see buildings and huge structures all wrapping around
these enormous trees as the owls are flying towards that.
you hear Zorbeck say
Oh, that was Tyber!
We were going to die!
Who the hell is Tyber?
Yeah, who is that?
I mean, we can't hear across carriages, correct?
Should we pull over somewhere?
Maybe go through a drive-thru?
I'm so hungry.
I can't respond.
It's already a flying through.
Maybe they're going to make flurry.
No, but really it's been like
seven hours of us being in the air. I'm sucking starving. You have some hard soup. I don't want to eat her soup.
No, hard soup. Oh, heart. I heard heart soup. Oh, no. It's my soup. It's just hard.
What's in it? What's in it? Like a booyot soup? What does that mean? Hard soup is a real thing. It's like, uh, like almost like a gelatinous, like, but normally it can take like potatoes and carrots. It would be like normally soup, but it is hard and you can eat it on the road.
and so like,
this is a yellow from hell.
Yeah, you had me a jelly.
Why do we keep bringing
this shit up?
It's like Aspick.
Because it's a real,
1970s to delight.
Oh my God, it's like gelo salad.
It's like, where do I go?
Yeah, where are we going?
Well, we don't know the way to tally from here, right?
Calgary.
I can't hear anything you guys are funny.
Are we targets now?
Are we targets now?
I didn't see anybody but I'll go to the window.
and I'll gesture and see if I can, if my voice can carry it to the other.
I would say you guys are close, if you're shouting across at each other,
you'd be able to hear through the way.
It'd be difficult to hear, but I think you'd be able to do it.
Felix! Where do we go?
Caleri!
But, no, but how? How do we go? How?
Where? Why do you think I know?
Would I make a reasonable assumption that what I ever I can see out on the horizons?
You get the sense that's probably fine.
Those two dead guys do you have to get the collier.
Come please.
We're five, this end!
We're fucking!
It's over there!
Shut up!
It's over there!
What?
Over there!
Direction!
But just shut up with me...
Funny.
Oh, yeah.
Because we're good.
Yes.
They're showing up in the city all fucked up with two dead guys.
What?
I look fabulous.
The dead guys are long gone.
They fail instantly.
I know, but there's like a lot of blood around here.
And the, you know, the hour.
was bleeding tool. I looked out the window to see if there's any sign of civilization that we could
like immediately park at. That would be above the canopy. So, uh, make your subject for.
That would be my pleasure. Jesus Christ, you guys. Let's go with a, uh, uh, dirty 19. A dirty 19.
You look around and as you were flying through, you see the huge, strong city of Kaleria ahead of you. However, on either side of
you see a bit closer there seems to be at least a small village or outpost not too far from
where you're at that seems to have no more than just two trees that it's comprised of and just
with a very small row of dwellings you could try to pull up there but we got to come up with a
game plan because we look like shit i think we need to press through to caleri
when you know what happens they're going to arrest us bye what what
We shot at the, you know, chariot just like everybody else.
They're going to wonder where the fuck our drivers are and why we're covered in black.
They were gang members! We don't give a shit!
But they're going to be wondering why nobles are driving these cards.
Because our two drivers were killed by Tyber the silent death.
We were attacked. We're the victims!
We still have your shitty pants, we can just say that I am French now, all of a sudden, for no reason.
Focus, Louie! Your accent!
wandering.
I think you're cute.
Fuck.
Oh, we're cute.
Ah, frack.
But we can just say that they shoot their pants and we let them out.
Guy, I can't stop.
I know.
Oh, we.
We are.
You know, I don't know.
So you're getting five.
Yeah, what's your cell is.
Here's the blue catawful libel.
There we go.
We're back.
We're back.
I just need to sound angrier.
We have to go to Calibino.
I just want to be.
I just want to be.
I'm all.
We have to get out of you.
You mean our fleam foggosh.
We don't need a story.
We just need to land and get medical attention and sleep.
Does it look like we could get people over here so that they were, sorry, does it look like we could get everyone onto one of these birds or does it, like, we need to be only on one carriage because only one gets important to one.
Yeah, I would say that it would be difficult to get in on one of you guys.
Oh, fuck.
The owl, though, that was wounded after you yelled at it seems to be doing better.
The arrow is still...
It's up bleeding!
Okay!
Sorry, go, me.
I don't miss the fucking high.
God, damn.
No, you just would have lost your goal to Derek anyway.
Yeah, that's right.
Fucking Derek.
No, you lost that one.
I drink your milkshake.
I drink it off.
What if Tiger's working with him?
What if he's part of the crew?
Oh.
He is a bounty hunter.
He's very good at what.
he does the best.
What do you know about him?
I know that he
is the one that
found two of the spirits that they needed.
Oh, shit.
So he's a mere ally?
He wouldn't, unless he's screaming.
He's the ally of people who pay him,
but he's very good at what he does.
Which one?
Which spirits did he find?
I do not know.
I think he found one of the ladies.
I don't know.
Blue lady for sure.
We have to get to Calyrie.
That's the bottom line.
That's the whole point of all of this.
We can't take a pit stop.
Or all of this will have been for nothing.
Should we assume that we're just going to go in a straight line and that we were already on our way and if we hit it, we hit it?
Because it could be anywhere in this forest and we have no idea where Calerius.
Lofty was pointing out.
Meta knowledge Lofty knows where it is.
She can see it.
I'm pointing.
And if anyone would just turn their head, I'm sure you would see it.
Where is?
I'm hearing.
Sorry, I missed my video.
I thought we were still wondering.
We were hilarious.
We can go park.
We can't.
Which is outright refusing to turn his head.
What?
We can go park, but we gotta have a story.
We can make sure that we're all...
We have our papers.
We have everything in order.
They're going to give us medical attention because we're part of the elite.
We're part of the nobility.
No, but we were also hunted.
And that news might be spreading too.
We might be targets.
I mean, it would be very clear that that.
like I wasn't noble, right?
I mean, he's some, he's absolutely and schmuck.
The point is that he, I, meta, meta, out of character.
I think that the point is that when we land,
we have people where that shows who we are, right?
We are nobility.
They're not going to just be like, oh, why were you savaged by some guy who
fucked your whole life up?
You know, they're going to be like, oh my God, like, we'll help you.
Like, you have money.
You know, you belong here.
The guy, the people who attacked us are not nobles, right?
I mean, it's natural to assume that they're going to be like, who attacked you.
Right.
And if they're like, oh, a bounty hunter, they'd be like, why was a bounty hunter after you?
That's very natural.
Well, that's fine.
And then we can figure that out.
But we're not going to not go get medical attention, right?
I mean, like, we need to go to Calaria.
We do need medical attention.
But I think that we should have some other story than the time.
We got attacked.
Why don't we just say we got attacked?
We got attacked.
I mean, we're not.
I mean, we're attacked.
We have lots of money.
There's no reason why.
They were trying to attack us.
They're literally sky pirates.
Right.
I mean,
why would we have to justify why we were attacked by some people who wanted the things that we had?
Look at all my rings.
They probably want to see.
I mean, I'm just throwing out.
They get out of character.
A plan.
On my necklaces?
I'm so sad.
In character, this sounds like a great plan.
I would think, I would think that in character, we would know that we wouldn't want to say the name of this person.
We wouldn't want to say.
there was a, you know, somebody
who was trying to, because then all of a sudden it's like, well, why
do they want Lifty? We were just attacked. That's
it. We know that he finds
elementals. So why does he
want you? You must have one.
You don't have. We don't know. We don't.
If we were
nobles, all of us would literally
just say, just some dumb guy. This guy
who tried to steal from us. We have no idea who
he is. We were just attacked and it was out
of the blue and we got all fucked
up and we need help.
It was making sure that we all have the same story.
that's a suggestion.
Yes.
I think we're in agreement.
I will help Zorbeck try to land.
If he looks like he's struggling,
I'll help him try to land the birds
or the owls near the Hilari landing zone.
If that is in fact Hilari,
I don't know, I'm on the lookout for what
appears to be a landing.
Okay. Maybe that's far as start.
So, you, as the owls are flying
and you're grabbing on the reins,
It seems as if without much coaxing, they seem to be flying directly straight towards this large city that you are all approaching.
You pass smaller outposts and villages here and there, but you see this grand, multi-tiered city built into the treetops.
One that you had passed previously when you had entered a while ago into Irios.
And as you closer and closer, you just see the...
You had seen from the ground its elegance and opulence, but even through the rain of the storm
as wind whips around you and rain is drenching all of you.
You see that the true grandeur of this place.
As you see it rising off dozens and dozens of trees, it goes back further.
You see the glowing lights through the...
the, what should be the day, but it's still very dark because of the storm clouds that are all above you.
And as you get closer, you start to see that make out some of these buildings, some of these structures.
You see that there are, similar to Blue Box and the other towns that you've seen, there are these large bridges of these large rope bridges built all between to connect this huge city.
And you then see out on the outskirts, on some of the smaller, skinnier trees, there's still.
seem to be these large roosts and rookeries all spread out with dozens and dozens,
maybe even hundreds of giant owls parked.
You see a number of these winged carriages all leveled out,
and you seem to think that directly ahead of you off to the left is some sort of landing
area to those that would be arriving.
To the landing area.
I look at the three of them, so Lufty and Caprice and Zorbeck, does it look like any of them are bleeding, like, out of their garb?
Okay.
Okay.
Can I try to see how much healing he would need to try and stop the bleeding so that he's not bleeding in close?
I would say he's still covered it.
I think that this time, the bleed would have stopped, but you're still covered and blood and blood and yeah.
that the remnants of battle are still there, for sure.
How bad are you feeling?
You told me earlier you were feeling okay.
No, I mean, I'm hurt.
I just wanted to make sure that the owl didn't die.
I thought that your healing of powers would go better with the owl, but...
You have to touch it.
Oh, oh, please do.
Why, I thought you already took care of it.
I haven't taken care of myself, though.
I thought we were going to enjoy a long rest, period, this time.
Oh.
Short rest.
Sure rest.
You all enjoy the short rest.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Holy hot dogs.
Why I'm worn out.
If you use your hit dice, I don't know if that's going to happen.
But if you do, you can take an additional 1D6 as I sing some sort of ridiculous bullshit.
I have a little foof of hair.
I need the original dice in bags.
It's as many of your love.
I'll just do the final balance.
You get a rest song.
And you enjoy the short rest.
Oh, yeah.
It's a deep.
Mm.
Mm.
Mm.
Mm.
Mm.
Mm.
As you all.
What should we add to the first one?
Sorry.
An extra D8, right?
Is it just to the first one?
Yes.
Do we hear this song?
What's the range on song or rest?
It just says short rest.
I mean, I'd have to look at that.
Yeah, I'll say fine.
You can hear the notes over the winds.
I'll say real loud.
Or play real loud, I guess.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I feel like speaking.
Thanks, Capriccioni had to use today.
There you go.
So what is it, what is your spell do perhaps to dream?
You can add an additional D6.
Oh, 26.
I have a T-8.
Let me attack that.
Mikey, what's my alcohol again?
What was your alcohol?
That's a Ural owl.
UR-A-L.
You are a L.
It's so.
You all enjoy a short rest.
And as you all
we're pulling towards this landing area,
you just see some shapes flying through the storm.
And suddenly,
you are surrounded by four sentries.
As they surveyed the scene.
You see that they're all heavily armored
and heavily armed as well.
And they seem to be of the similar type
of the air cocker that had attacked
the village and burned it down.
And
the
one in the lead calls out
who goes down
and do you need assistance?
Yes, right away, please, we've been attacked.
Who are you? You can call me Tim
Ironballs. We're nobles.
We're trying to land. We're not
the drivers. I'm specularia
and I shit my pants when these guys
attacked us and I'm waving my
shitty pants and the shitty towel.
Please, we need medical attention immediately.
We've been cleaning out. Please
help us. Your pants have been completely
cleaned by the rain.
But they're wet. You mean, peed,
you mean peed. And
as the guards
make a persuasion check-out advantage,
or no, a deception check out advantage.
Me or you?
Were you?
You. You. Do it.
You fucking do it.
Wow. A shit. A shit.
Wait, what, it's deception?
Yeah.
Or 18.
18.
So immediately they say,
Oh, of course it once!
And you get two on either side of you, and as they escort you,
you fly down to one of the large ramps leading out.
And with some difficult, oh, here goes.
It seems as the owls, however, being intelligent,
making this trip several times, multiple times,
that they know where to go,
as with a bit of a rocky landing.
We'll see how old they do.
I use cunning words.
No.
They do.
You get jostled around as the owls land and perch
and the carriages that you've been flying in clattered to a stop.
And you finally feel the joy of just being still
and not in motion and not in the air.
Immediately you hear the sound of footsteps
and flapping of wings as a number of...
individuals fly up to you and open the doors.
What happened?
Do you need medical attention?
And you see there's a medic that appears with a med kit, a lot of bandages.
And you see someone wearing these robes with these glowing yellow hands.
Oh, thank you.
Yeah, I have a hole in me, but you'd be surprised what an hour's rest will do.
I'll take a little bit.
Sure, absolutely.
Thanks.
I was, I'll hope that way.
Like my, any of the woods that I've been bandaged up, I'm like open up and let them apply any set.
Yeah, I'm just gonna like re-dain.
I'm bleeding, but I'm, mechanics, I'm fine.
But, you know, RP-wise, I need help.
And as you're being patched up, you get patched up and you get some healing.
You get healing.
You get 13 points of healing.
Beautiful.
As, as a, as a.
an armored guard and a helmet flies up to you and says,
what exactly happened here?
It was hard to see. I'll be honest.
It was a big storm, and there were these sky pirate creatures.
We were attacked.
We couldn't really see what was happening.
They sniped all of the two drivers,
and I think they were after our precious goods.
They tried to hurt the poor creatures who were ferrying us.
Yeah, you'll see one of the owls.
Be very wounded, at least that one is.
They hit one of the owls, and we managed to heal her right back up.
We were very lucky to have a little healing ability amongst our party.
But if they had taken my wings,
and I'm going to pretend to faint out of the door and whoever will catch me.
I'll catch her.
This is a true dramatic effect.
You do Zarbox like, oh, let me help you.
Yeah, we help you.
So you are clearly all nobles.
Do you have your papers just to confirm?
Yes.
Of course we do.
We all get all papers out here.
Somewhere on me, yeah, sure.
And we'll stay, all of them.
We'll stay.
Okay, and I need a one group deception check, please.
Oh, baby.
Natural one, so I will use a twist if that's all right.
It's a 20.
You said deception.
Yep.
I got an 18.
I'll join you in that natural one, but I'm not going to use it.
Seven.
Seven.
I get 18.
Eight.
You got a 10.
10?
10?
Okay.
22?
I'm sure that's a fair.
22?
I got a 12 for a discussion.
Okay.
The captain takes all of your papers.
I am so sorry this happened to you.
We've normally been on our roots taking care of brigands and pirates, but the storms have kept us grounded mostly.
I'm so sorry this has happened to you.
It's no one's fault other than the people who attacked us.
It's just fine.
Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service.
Thank you for all.
Thank you.
Do you have a destination?
We're looking for the wrist in that would take a group of very important and powerful nobles.
There are many of those, of course.
Whichever one you recommend?
We didn't have one in particular night.
Whichever has the best meals, we've been flying for quite some time and we're all very hungry, very tired.
And the alcohol.
The closest one here that I think is, of your, would I be up to your standards would be the rising elegance.
Dern.
That's nice.
Take me there.
Something's rising and isn't the elegance.
That'll do a...
No, it's the elephants.
May we escort you?
Please do it.
Please, we would appreciate that.
Yes.
Yes. I'm so sorry.
sorry, Lord, Lord Powerbott.
Yes, that is my...
Lord Iron Balls.
The third. Don't forget the third.
Lord Iron Balls.
Excuse me, Lord Powerbott and the Third.
Thank you.
Lord Iron Balls.
Lord Camersmith.
Oh, that's me.
Yes, yes. Thank you. Thank you.
Lady Featherton.
Lady Contraffin Blancel.
That wasn't even close.
Cartophon. Cartophilin.
Cartophilin.
I'm sorry.
I don't...
Nothing.
familiar with that dialect.
Hildeblum.
I don't remember you're the last thing you gave me.
Was it an S something?
Specularia.
No, it was...
Lady Eskretariat.
Eskretariat.
If it wasn't then, it is now.
She won the three crowns.
Lady Eskitt.
Too clearly, I'm so sorry this has happened to.
What is your name?
So that we may think the authorities in charge.
for your assistance, for healing us and for feeding us.
My name is Vost.
Vast. It's so nice to meet you, Vast.
Very nice to meet you.
I will escort you. I'm so sorry this happened.
Please do not tell.
Well, I don't ask for that, but if you speak to any of the other nobles, please go easy on lack of dillardous.
Of course, we won't tell anyone. It's fine.
a true look of concern
that a group of nobles was attacked by
bandits on their way to Cleary.
As you're
immediately escorted
through the streets.
And as you look around,
you just see these,
you see
a beautiful city
sprawling through the
forest. And as
the storm
starts to part a little bit.
And not entirely,
dissipate, but you can see the rays of sunset, as it seems like the town is starting to wake up.
The streets aren't entirely packed, but you see that there are a number of, a large number
of individuals strolling through the various promenades. You see a number of artisans walking
to their various shops, but it seems to be mostly merchants. As they're, some are wearing large
gaudy robes, some poofy hats, large colorful feathers in all of their clothing.
As you are winding through these streets and you see that each tree seems to spiral upwards
into tears with rows of beautiful buildings going up almost to the canopy.
And as you make your way into the city, you don't get that far before you arrive at the
rising elegance.
And Vost arrives and all of the guards with him immediately stand back at attention, all armed with Halberts.
Here you are. Is there anything you need?
I think a nice good rest and a promise from your lips that everything will be taken care of when it comes to the pirates.
Agreed.
We will immediately embark to try to try to.
find them. They cannot have gotten for him.
That's it for me. I just need to get some rest.
Thank you, thank you. Thank you. I greatly appreciate your service and just
we're very new to this town so maybe like just some some general tips or things we
should check out perhaps maybe where we do all the greatest nobles lie or the maybe the
rulers of the city. Oh well I mean it's it's it's the high poach where we're we're
The grand lord holds court with all of the greatest noble houses.
I assume you're here to see them.
Oh, yes, of course.
Are you here for the grand ball tomorrow?
Yes, yes.
How did you know?
That's great.
They don't call me iron balls for nothing.
Many nobles attend, have been traveling in the past several days,
usually not this quickly, not this close to the masquerade ball.
Is there any stores you'd recommend where we could get a new change of clothes?
I feel like these are going to take forever to dry out and wash by the ball tomorrow.
I unfortunately cannot afford any of the stores that you would like to.
But just walk through the city and you'll be able to find numerous places to purchase any clothes you can desire.
Very well.
And you look and you can tell that this Eric Hoker as well as all of the guards that are with,
him don't have that same level of sheen in the feathers and the beacon meet.
The eyes quite aren't as glistening and pristine.
You can tell that this is not a noble Air Cobra.
And I would say that you've also noticed that every single Air Coker that you've met just
has a singular name.
There is no surname that any lowborn has ever offered you.
As, as, as, as, as, as, as, as, as, if you need me, you know where I, I keep my main
patrol. Thank you,
I hope you enjoy the ball and
and seek whatever counsel you desire.
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Thank you. Have a lovely day.
Thank you.
Dismiss?
Yes, of course, sir.
And they immediately stand at attention
and walks off,
leaving you in front of the Rising Elephants,
this beautiful tavern with these
filigreed of golden accents
and colors of
of gold and purple as this beautiful wooden building.
And it has that same lacquer that you can see across most of the buildings of these
Eric Okra, that shimmering, you believe, is a fire-retardant substance.
As flame-retarded, as you see these beautiful double doors ahead of you, these large golden knockers.
I was trying to find of a synonym, but I couldn't get there.
Licking my beak and looking at the knockers,
I turn back to the rest of the group.
No, I don't want to have to spend any much more gold.
Stop slapping the knockers around.
But they're so huge.
And golden.
