Starting point is 00:00:01 Welcome to Legends of Evanthris. I am the one they call your... And this is Icebound. The ruins tell of what happened last time. Boy, we're going to go up the tower, find Whisper Fane, split him into, destroy what's left of his body. Get back, Queenie, get back the young lady,
Starting point is 00:00:30 find the hatcheture armament. We've to kill the princess on the way. We'll do that. Yes, look, she's up to something, right? She's trying to imagine. all this gold and she's trying to like bring this guy back and that's a whole fucking thing that's going on. And we're not entirely sure what's gonna happen, but we know that Whisper Fing's a part of it,
Starting point is 00:00:45 but she's a part of it. And we're trying to slow things down, you know, stop it, fix it. The voice-bound castaways have come before the procession that's called Fort Boy the Drums of War. How did you get down from, how did you get here? Our time is now. The time of tribes is over. Oh shit.
Starting point is 00:01:06 Hall will be united under a single banner. You hear this massive crash of voices as the young spirit caller is pushed forward. Lead him, lead him into the great hall. This princess will be with us soon. My little, it's me, Sprin. I saw her a couple days ago, but she hasn't been back since. You find the body of Daisy.
Starting point is 00:01:38 You are able to find a very familiar object. You find the honey pot. Oh shit. That Queenie has always kept by her side. You're all right. You're all right. We're here. We found you. It's okay. What the fuck? I take one step back. I... look, it's a lot to explain right now, but we gotta get you out of you.
Starting point is 00:01:58 I'm scared for Queenie. Yeah, we are too. Ascending. Yeah, some sort of ascension. I don't know what she's saying is not making too much sense over here, at least to me. But she's worried about Queenie. Could this be the ceremony she's drawn to? everyone here for does Queenie live I saw them go through the portal as far as we
Starting point is 00:02:22 know I the exeter armament when you have this sight first they they they they they they kill my my soldiers they they kill they they they threatened my princess they threaten the high hexager armament you hear the voice of whisper fangs coming up the up the stairs and you see him brown to the bend all the way down this hallway and you see behind him a larger shape the dumb face of the poet standing right behind him as he walks in and through. He straddles the hallway, essentially,
Starting point is 00:03:04 staring all the way down, pointing at the... Intruders! You all find yourselves in one of the tallest towers of the biting bastion. You're seeking a specific room, a portal room, A room that you know both Daisy and Queenie had been threatened in, not recently, but perhaps even one, two, three days ago. And you've managed to make it this far unnoticed. You found your way through the bowels of the biting bastion, making your way up through a treasure room,
Starting point is 00:03:50 up through a dungeon where you've met Ket Rostin, and eventually here. To the room that you find yourself in, now you look. back and you can see that you have been discovered, not by guards this time, not by the Princess Raff, certainly, but you hear the voice of Whisper Fang. They kill my soldiers. They threaten my princess. They threaten the hexature armament. Intruder's.
Starting point is 00:04:22 Intruder! He points at you and he lifts his wings up and he flies down the hallway directly towards you. We could have had everything. and I need you all to roll for initiative. Let's fucking go! The whole fucking boss battle. I mean, it should be in.
Starting point is 00:04:46 Oh, shit, where's my dice? Off to a really bad start. Really bad start for old scrimorino. Where's my dice? What is it? I'm gonna use your dice. There was a bunch of really cool coral dice over here. When I was sitting there on Wednesday.
Starting point is 00:05:03 You said you got a bag or something? No, was he's crap. Natural 20. Natural 20. Wow. Do you want the crab dice for today? Yeah, it's part of us. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:05:11 To dispel dice for the crab dice they gave us. But I'm giving me that natural dice. I need a bunch of quab dice for when we get back to Shrador. Quap, you dear. I think Cameron, who brings some extra quabs. Oh, I need a squids. She might be bringing some quab.
Starting point is 00:05:23 Squibbs some quabs. Crabb. Natural 20, folks. Let me pull up my. I did not get a natural 20. I got a three. But that's OK. I'm focused on make sure dais you.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Do do do. Do do. He, he. Where are we? Where are we? So, first of all we've got the hex of turner on it right here. Oh, so our boy, your ear was right by it. He got fucking Zapp.
Starting point is 00:05:51 He's right in front of it. I got smoked. So you can go there if you want to or you can go. Well, I got knocked back and there was some time afterwards. So like, wherever you want to be. That's fine. I'm putting you wherever you want to be. I know that we said that our Giff and a friend was waiting.
Starting point is 00:06:03 Okay, where's the audience? I was by the door, right? I mean, Daisy. I was by, I was by, uh, she was by, uh, I should and I'll let you put you. I think I went to join here. Because I went to heal him. Barnabos is in one of the other rooms.
Starting point is 00:06:15 Presumably, right? Oh, yeah, you were still in the other room. You didn't, you were in the, you were in the, no, I would say that he joined, he joined the gang. I'm really right at this front, though. I'm like, you could be, you could be right. You would have like zolved right in. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:29 Oh, look at cat. Oh, cool. That's good. I think that's our original cat. I can't remember. Probably. No, it is, right? He's got the busky.
Starting point is 00:06:38 The gang's all here. The gang's all here. He's supposed to have one hand. That's fucking up. Someone's coming over. I need you to cut off. You're giving that. I'm used to it.
Starting point is 00:06:51 I just need my notes over here. Yeah. Strings. All right. 2230. Oh. Not this fucking guy. Who's got 20 to 3?
Starting point is 00:07:02 20 to 30? 20 to 30. That was that? 20 to 30. 20 to 30. Oh, 20 to 30. To be. It's a weird way to do it.
Starting point is 00:07:10 Anyone else over 20? No. 23. No. Then we've got 15 to 20. My blood is nothing but cat. I gotta roll three, so I got a set.
Starting point is 00:07:22 15 to 20? 14. 14. 10 to 40? Oh. You go first. I'm still frazzled by a Then,
Starting point is 00:07:32 how are you looking? Five to 10? Me, I got a seven. I'm probably looking pretty rough. Let me, I'm pulling up my character. My blood has so much caffeine in it could kill gods. Oh, I took 18 damage. You did get zapped pretty good.
Starting point is 00:07:49 I got zapped. Bad. Didn't we, I'm sure I walked over to you and healed you. I think you did heal me. I'm sure I did. And I remember after the session, I was like, thank God you healed me. Just check your still slots. I'm pretty sure.
Starting point is 00:08:05 I 100, well, I have one for free. I mean, I got a lot burned, but I've done a lot of stuff. Oh, God, I have a bunch of burn, too. I did a bunch of cool stuff. You have been a little draught. Oh, no, no, no. Somebody's thinking it took like 45 lightning damage. That probably is after the heel.
Starting point is 00:08:19 Yeah, yeah, yeah. You took your heel already. Yeah, if anyone can confirm in chat, but I'm pretty sure you healed me. Yes. So I didn't make sure. I did 100% agree. Unlike some episodes of Icebound
Starting point is 00:08:31 where I don't always get to rewatch the previous episode, you were able to heal your ear moments before the Whisper Faye. interruption from Whisper Fang. Whisper Fang. You healed him 6d8, however much.
Starting point is 00:08:45 You actually recovered a tremendous amount of his health stock. I'm pretty healthy. I'm only missing 18. Well, you wouldn't have. Right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You look a lot better. Yeah. I'm looking decent. Well, scrims at full health and ready to rock out
Starting point is 00:08:57 with his cock out, so. Jeez. That's fuck. Whoa. Where's Whisper Fang? He's in the end of the end? He's allegedly. Allegedly right in the fucking Norway?
Starting point is 00:09:06 Yeah. He's forward. And so, next. He was like, oh, fuck yourself as he flew in. Oh, if we could do the bottle cap thing, that would be awesome. We have those squares, don't we? We have the squares?
Starting point is 00:09:18 Oh, the squawks. Yeah, hold on. Just give me two seconds. Oh, I forgot my DM box, so if we have squares, we're gonna have to find them in the studio. You can't square right here? Oh, I'll take, I'll, hand me, hand me. Can you pass me the red belts that are over there?
Starting point is 00:09:29 Just in case. Actually, pass me all of them so that they're safe. Thank you. Pay attention to me. Pass me all of those. These, oh, these guys. I'm gonna throw up the brake thing so that this gets headed it out. Can you put this under it out.
Starting point is 00:09:38 Uh, break. These bottle caps are turning into landlord paint jobs. Oh, no, 100%. And I want to leave them there, so it's like pulling back a... Landlord paint job is very funny. That's so fucking funny. You know, maybe. Maybe later. All right.
Starting point is 00:09:54 Maybe later. Oh, sorry. I mean, Whisper Fagg is always flying, right? He said he took down. Yeah, yeah. He's not touching the ground. He said he's in the wind. He literally flew and was like, fuck you.
Starting point is 00:10:04 Yeah. Um. Yeah. Um. No, Mike. Don't you have some, you have a harpoon, don't you? With a chain attached? Oh, don't worry.
Starting point is 00:10:11 But he's not like flying 40 feet in the air. He's just off the ground. Yeah, he's still made like a ass. Three, four feet away from the ground. He's even in reach. He's not up yet. What advantage are you missing? This matters, so we're just doing.
Starting point is 00:10:27 If I'm very quickly get the, can I cast another normal spell? Yes. Okay. Yeah, and if you cast another spell that is concentrating. Well, you can use one. But it replaces the old concentration spell. Oh yeah, that's how it's on it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Okay, okay, okay. Having dual-dule concentration is a necessary balancing act in the systems and maps of Dungeons and Door Dragons. Thanks for your patience, everybody. We're gonna get into this real quick, but we're gonna take our time. We're gonna simulate some combat here. This is the first, like, boss fight we've had in a long-ass time. Oh, oh.
Starting point is 00:11:01 Ah, my blood is vibrating! I love vibrating blood. All right, I'm gonna turn off the break thing, and then we should be good to go. They're on the booth on the bottle caps. Oh shit, fuck. I remember something I needed to write down. Okay, write it down. Top of the round, Whistfer Fang and the infused, empowered,
Starting point is 00:11:24 strange corpse of the re-materialized and resurrected body of the undead poet stumps by him. He's similar in stature, but he looks unnatural. There's something very strange. about his eyes, about his face. He doesn't look like he did, certainly. His hair is completely missing. His face is now gaunt with veins pulsing
Starting point is 00:11:53 with strange, almost yellow, sick, bile-like fluids. As he stops forward, he doesn't seem to be capable of speech. He roars as he races forward. And Whisper Fang, continues to scream with irritation at all of you. We could have had everything. The princess is so close to victory,
Starting point is 00:12:19 and you betray us. We gave you power. A home. All you had to do was know your place, and we could have had it all. Too bad, I'm going to have to destroy you just like your little friend. Ah!
Starting point is 00:12:33 He screams outwards, and all of a sudden he starts to make these motions and make these arcane words that you've seen him use once before, much before on an ogre, and a charge of lightning emits from his hands and starts to spread through all of you. Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Starting point is 00:12:53 This is a spell? Yeah. Can you do this? I've been fucking waiting this entire goddamn campaign. Am I being targeted by the spell? If it's an AOE, it's not a target. That's what I'm asking.
Starting point is 00:13:15 I would ask everyone if they agree with this assessment. Technically, he's targeting Barnabot, and it will leak. Then no, it's not targeting me. That it's not targeting me. Let me read the wording. You create a bolt of lightning that arcs toward a target of your choice that you can see within range. Three bolts, then leap from that target to as many as three other targets,
Starting point is 00:13:34 each of which must be within 30 feet of the first target. A target can be a creature or an object and can be targeted by only one of the bolts. So the question is, it'll target you like after it. If it leaps to you, then it'll be targeting you. But it only leaps three times. So if it leaps this way, then it'll hit you last. It'll hit you last. He is upcasting it, and so it will leap to.
Starting point is 00:13:57 Oh, never mind. It will leap all six of the bigger. Upcasting it to, fuck. I don't know how the spell works. That's really meta, though. Can I ask what level the spell you're gonna tell me? Make an arcana. Technically.
Starting point is 00:14:10 I mean, if you'll give me Arcana, I'll take it. I'm not good at it, so if I hit this, it'll be pure dumb luck. No, 11, not a fucking chance. Nope. I am not using the, I'm not, I'm gonna just watch as this happens. Scrim is not, he's off kilter, he's not ready. I need everyone to make a dexterity saving throw. Oh, that I'm good at. Oh, baby, I'm advantaged.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Hell yeah. Hell yeah. Uh-oh. 22. Come on, come on, Dex. No, fuck. I'm getting cooked, bro. Cook me. Lightning damage surges through Barnabos, hits,
Starting point is 00:14:47 Ketrastine, surges over to Yornear, passes through Taishen, hits Scrim and ends with Daisy as all of you take 47 damage or half as much with a successful save. That's 23. We don't do massive damage, do we? No. Guys, what is that?
Starting point is 00:15:09 What is massive damage? I'm already in trouble. Massive damage is an optional rule where if you take a certain amount, like I think it's like more than half your damage in one hit, half your help. It starts to do wuff up things where like you roll on a table to see if you like, just fucking guy.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Crop unconscious, you can die. Sorry, how much was it? 47 or 23. I'm in trouble already, boys. Holy. Holy. That, uh, that's not good. That hit hard. That fucking hurt.
Starting point is 00:15:33 That was a. Whisper Fang unleashes this magic and it courses through all of you and you are surprised to find yourself alive, but Barnabot, you are quick on the jump and you are able to move before any of your allies before even Whisper Fang is able to make another move. What do you do?
Starting point is 00:15:52 I should have killed you weeks ago, time to correct that folly! As I'm going to swing in with my mall, I am reckless attacking. Okay. But I'm raging, I'm reckless attacking, but I'm foregoing the advantage in order to trigger a crushing, oh god.
Starting point is 00:16:16 Oh my god, I'm sorry, what is this fucking ability called? Brutal strike. Oh. So I'm going to hit. It's going to deal with extra 1D10 bludgeoning damage. You're just going to hit? I'm going to, well, it's, oh sorry, it'll be a 26 to hit.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Okay. 26 to hit. You see he starts to put up his hand as though to cast some protective barrier when he sees you're so close and the anchor is coming down, but you're faster and you're able to slash it into him. Oh, wow, that's pretty good.
Starting point is 00:16:52 10 plus 19 plus 19, plus 19, about 23. My rage now is what, at plus three? Geez, sorry, sorry, sorry, it's been a long time. It's all right, it's all right. It's month to month. Do you know what level? Is it plus three?
Starting point is 00:17:14 Sorry for what. 20 for rage at my level at level 10? Plus three, yeah. Yeah, at least. 26, plus four for my using a bludgeoning weapon. 30. Plus four is 30. And he needs to, it's the topple weapon mastery. Oh.
Starting point is 00:17:31 He needs to make a, to 30 points of bludgeoning damage, he needs to make a conscience and saving throw. What's the DC? 14. He rolls a natural 17. Okay. So he's not prone. I am going to go in with my claw.
Starting point is 00:17:59 As I get my large crab claw, and I'm going to attack not him, but the poet. as I am swinging in and I'm going to have one of my crab attacks on the poem. When you enter, we'll be five feet, he uses a reaction, a deadly reach. You all of a sudden go in and start to attack him with this crab claw and he comes at you
Starting point is 00:18:25 with his other hand at the exact same time. I need you to make, do to doot, he's going to get a 26 to hit. Does that hit? We're in trouble here. This is gonna be ugly. Oh, this is, uh... We're in a little bit of trouble. And you are going to take one moment.
Starting point is 00:18:46 Doot-to-doot. You're gonna take 13 bludgeoning damage plus one necrotic damage as he grapples you at the same time. But you can continue to finish your attack since you can attack grappling. What is he done to you? As I will go in, I will attack. attack. I am going to forego my advantage as well.
Starting point is 00:19:15 That is gonna certainly hit with a 22. 22 to hit the poet that hits. Yeah, that is only going to be dealing. That's gonna be four, eight, nine points of slashing damage. As you'll see as the strange kind of growth of the barnacles and the coral and the sea life actually starts to creep on to the poet in a way that you all haven't seen before. As I am using one of my infectious fury,
Starting point is 00:19:49 he needs to make a DC-16 wisdom saving throw. DC-16? Yep. Wisdom, you say? Yep. He rolls a 15 and has a plus two. Okay. So he just made it.
Starting point is 00:20:05 I am going to once again come in with my crab claw. Oh, sorry. He takes, oh, sorry, he takes an additional, sorry, he takes an additional three points of slashing damage. Okay. And his speed is reduced to 15 until the enemy's turn. Oh, terrific. And then I am going to go in with another crab claw.
Starting point is 00:20:24 That is going to be a 17 hit? That hits, yes. Okay. I'm going to, that is the last of my attacks. That is 10 plus 4, 14 plus 3, 17. 17. 17. 17, a additional damage. He needs to make another wisdom saving throw.
Starting point is 00:20:53 He will do that. This time he will absolutely fail. As the creeping barnacles and there'll be a wriggling beneath his skin as I will use infectious fury. No! And the target must use its, ugh. It must make a melee attack against, it must use this reaction.
Starting point is 00:21:16 It already uses reaction. Oh, shit. That's all right. So I am, he's gonna- Oh, I see. Was he gonna go knock on the Whiphefeng's door? Thank God. So instead, I am, he's going to take Shupini,
Starting point is 00:21:33 18 points of psychic damage. Nice. Oh, okay, on top of the amount that I've already subtracted? Is that because he can't make the attack? I just choose one of the following options. Oh, nice, okay. So rather he either takes 2D12 for psychic damage
Starting point is 00:21:46 or he can use a reaction to attack Whisper Fang. Fucking love that. Okay, you swing into Whisper Fang who takes the blow. You feel it crunched into his body and feel that you've bruised him cleanly. But you're focused on the bruiser of the two. And you immediately go in and right away,
Starting point is 00:22:09 you're both trading blows and beating down on each other as the fight takes off properly. And he has only, I believe his speed is reduced to 15 feet. Yes. Whisper, both of them, both of them. Both of them? Yes, yeah. Is it half?
Starting point is 00:22:27 Is it half feet? Oh, let me just double check. Let me just double check. Oh my God. There's actually a lot that barbubble. have, it's actually quite... Thank you. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:22:37 It's quite... It's overwhelming sometimes. It's hamstring blow. It's reduced by 15, minus 15. Minus 15. You're talking to the guy that said he can't play certain colors in magic, okay? I just want to point that out.
Starting point is 00:22:48 Yeah. Yeah. I'm right there with him. Just after your turn, I'm going to use a legendary action for Whisper Effect. As he uses fly by, without triggering opportunity attacks, he is going to make He is going to move 35 feet to the other side of Ketrosby. Uh-oh.
Starting point is 00:23:12 You can get hit, no, I don't want him in melee range. I want him just as far in that direction as possible. Oh, I mean, he easily go out here. Yeah, he can go like, I mean, he can go way out here. Yeah, he flies in that direction. One and a half, three, four and a half, six. He can go either this way or this way. He can't go it.
Starting point is 00:23:29 With 35? Yeah. Because four squares diagonally is. He's dirty, and so he's one more square. So he can go here, we can go here. Yeah, that's right. That's perfect. That's perfect.
Starting point is 00:23:38 He does that, and then it is his turn. I look out, bro. Oh, I don't like this. You see him mutter a few words, grinning, snickering. That's a line. He pushes, he pushes his hands out, and then nothing happens.
Starting point is 00:23:55 There's almost a pop, a sizzle, a sparks fly, and there's a few whists of smoke, and he goes, you've broken your allegiance to the princess? Oh! How could you? He starts to swing in and uses a few smaller magical attacks in his frustration, but he clearly was endeavoring
Starting point is 00:24:17 to leverage his control due to the loyalty that you once had for the princess, now broken by the destruction of the totem that Barnabos once had as chieftain. Holy! Damn. Whoa. That said, Arcane bursts fly, and he, is going to send the first arcane burst towards Ket Rosteen.
Starting point is 00:24:39 It is going to hit. Ket Rosteen is going to make a dexterity saving throw, which he succeeds, but he is going to take some damage. One moment. Oh, one moment. I needed to roll for Ket and Daisy's chain lightning. Let me just quickly do some map. So my entire first turn game plan,
Starting point is 00:24:59 change trying to force it. What's the damage? Yeah. That's the same thing. Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, is that. Do you have a O.E heel? Like, would I know that?
Starting point is 00:25:09 Or have you ever done anything like that? None that I've done. Okay. There are two very, very warm stuff. You listen to Chris Trinan and you take... That's all I used. The letter after the campaign. You watch as he flies around and Ket Rostin takes this surge of arcane energy to his back.
Starting point is 00:25:27 He's pushed and he slides a little bit on the ground, but he's already starting to sort of kneel down and dig his sword into the ground, and he's able to hand the, to hold on. to hold on. But an additional arcane burst flies from Whisper Fang's hands and hits Yornear. He is why he attempts to hit Yornear. That's going to be a 24 to hit. That'll do it. Okay, you're going to take...
Starting point is 00:25:56 I hit a several. 14 force damage, and I need you to make a dexterity saving throw. 14 force damage. Guys from trouble, I can't get to Whisper Fang. 18. 18. You are hit by this, and you realize that it could force you, back, but you are watching Kat Rosteen, you stabilize yourself, you take a stand, and you slide back.
Starting point is 00:26:18 Even though it stings, you're able to keep your position. The next one comes in against Tyshen. That's going to miss, and the final one is going to come in against Scrim. That is going to be a 22 to hit. Do I shield this? 22, 22 is my cap. I feel like I've got to save every fucking hit point, but that's one of my spells. What are you at?
Starting point is 00:26:47 I mean, I took fucking half my health on fucking... I think you keep this. Well, again, it's up to scrim. Fuck. I think he would want to save his spells. Yeah, it's really tough to... I take the hit.
Starting point is 00:27:00 I get hit. You take the hit? Yeah. That's going to be... If I can't close distance, I'm a deep shit. 17 force damage. I need to make a dexterity saving throw. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:12 Oh, yeah. What the fuck? What that's cool. That's reporting on the deck save. Ah! You put up your hand thinking about shield, and even though you don't unleash your magic to stop the blast from hitting you entirely,
Starting point is 00:27:30 that defensive motion is enough to stabilize you and you are not knocked back. Whisper Fang, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill each and every one of you. And that is the conclusion of his turn. Ket Rosteen is up. She turns and watches Whisper Fang with the eyes of vengeance
Starting point is 00:27:48 that you can see broiling and roiling within him. He almost takes a knee as he holds on to his action, waiting for something, and in the meanwhile, he turns and he looks. He sees that scrim
Starting point is 00:28:04 took a tremendous amount of this charge, and you can hear him almost whisper in his mind, in your mind. You have to center yourself, center yourself. You hear a few words that are in the language. You almost don't understand, but you feel this bolstering nature.
Starting point is 00:28:21 Yes! As he gives you a... Oh, I remember he did this. He gives you a... What is it? What's he give me? He's like a red mage. He gives you a D8, which you can add to an attack roll,
Starting point is 00:28:40 a saving room or an ability. You don't have? I can add to basically anything? Yes, and he keeps his eyes steadily focused on Whisper Fang, not as strong a warrior as he once was and engaging in martial combat, but clearly preparing something. Tyshen, it would be your turn,
Starting point is 00:29:01 except for its whisper fangs. J-hiel. What a jackass. What a jackass. Sorry, I saw him figure my chance. I saw him in 20 minutes of prep. Is that 15 feet until the beginning of his next turn or the end of the next turn?
Starting point is 00:29:14 Until the beginning of your turn. Yeah. Minus 15. So, I'm going to, I hate to keep calling game seat on myself. Please too. I believe speed is different from fly. My presumption is that fly is in effect. Would fly be, I don't know if Dan Dillon is here, anyone else.
Starting point is 00:29:43 Would fly what? If it affects speed, does it affect capital F flying speed? If he's a fly speed and a speed. I think it's different. I think it's different. Speed's walking speed. Well, what's the name of it? Are you hamstringing?
Starting point is 00:29:54 Yes, it's a hamstrick. Capital has speed. It's probably wings, yeah. Nothing happens. All of my effects don't actually work. No, give it time. We're going to knock. I know.
Starting point is 00:30:02 I need, I need to, I need to maintain it. We're going to drive a disaster. If that's the cave? It is. It is. It is. Maintain Game State. Can you, it's a maintain game state. Can you move in 10 more feet in that direction?
Starting point is 00:30:11 Yeah, I'm sorry. This way? Yep, he'll stay there. He'll stay there. That I'm gonna help me. And he is going to, um. God, as long as I can run on your feet. He just launched this.
Starting point is 00:30:21 In 2024, you can. Yep. I'm coming for you. I'm confused, motherfucker. I don't know. I don't know what was just confirmed, but. Take your turn. Take your turn.
Starting point is 00:30:33 I don't count as difficult terrain anymore for him. That's fucking right. Oh, right. Yes. There's no saving you now. There's no saving you now. Oh, Skrim's coming for that ass! He's lined up with Scrim.
Starting point is 00:30:42 He is going to, he just unleashed these arcane bursts, and then he clats his hand together, and a series of similar arcane magic of missiles fly out. And I'm going to have everyone just roll a D4 for me. Uh-oh. I have a quab. I got a one. A D-4?
Starting point is 00:31:02 Yep. I got a three. I got a one. You take that plus one damage. as these magic missiles each hit all of you. And that will be his legendary action. That are cool. Oh, so you want to roll low.
Starting point is 00:31:13 That's good. Tyshen, is now your turn. You watch this unfold. Our only allegiance is to each other. Your office will be your downfall. And I will, I will, I think, just cast, because I can only want to cast two spells of a turn. If ever I could.
Starting point is 00:31:38 I will cast cure wounds at a fourth level. And you'll see, as I take a deep inhale, and I breathe out the golden flame of the dragon as it reits itself around my body, and I'll heal, as I think that's all I can do. I'll roll the heel and you can move past me. Okay. We're watching Taishen's subclass change
Starting point is 00:32:11 to the Divine Soul. It's a good subclass. It's a real good subclass. I really wanted to play a Divine Soul. Oh, no bad, not bad. He's just rolling. He might have a legionary. Oh, oh.
Starting point is 00:32:23 Yeah, I guess whatever, because it'll just heal, so we're good to move on. I'm just trying to decide if I'm gonna use legendary action or not, and I think I'm gonna let it roll. You're here, you are up. Um, don't wanna do this. I am going to do this. to how's their looking?
Starting point is 00:32:45 Can I look around and see how beat up everybody is? I look like shit. I just healed pretty big, you know, I'm still. I'm still. You could tell basically everything that's going on, even Barnabot's at this distance, I'd say. How are you looking, Mike? Skulloch. What?
Starting point is 00:33:02 How are you looking? I'm looking fun. Okay, I'm fucking. I'm not looking bad. I mean, but I ain't looking good. I'm missing, you know, 30th health. If you wanted to put a number on.
Starting point is 00:33:16 I am going to look around and see that everyone's taking all this damage. I've just been zapped by lightning twice terribly and being consumed by magic. Then I'm going to sort of look down and I'm going to hold my staff and I'll say. Mahmuth, first of the triad tree. The protector. lend us your shield and from I'm gonna pick maybe here one as if you can I don't know that's about one two three four one two three four one two three four one two three four basically right again everybody is at right in the middle of these
Starting point is 00:33:59 squares here from the ground you're gonna see this like ice and stone almost erupt but it's not corporeal it's it's of spectral and it's glowing this icy blue light as this standing stone, this megalith, so to speak, rises up and it's probably a solid eight or ten feet tall.
Starting point is 00:34:21 You can sit through it, you can walk through it, but it has this mammoth skull hanging from it, and there are ruins carved all over the skull, the tussed the stone itself as it emits this light this silvery light blue light
Starting point is 00:34:36 as I cast Harvest Moon Glove. at a fifth level. And mechanically, anyone that is within its glow can use a bonus action to gain 46 10 hit points. Oh, shit. The cricket moon, everybody! The cricket moon. That's all of you.
Starting point is 00:35:00 You watch, you watch all of you as Yorneer channels this magic. He speaks these words and he is, you see this monolith start to emerge smoke and, uh, uh, ethereal light pouring out from all directions. And you hear the voice of whisper fangs. No, no, no, have that. He snaps his fingers and he counterspells with his reaction. Oh, I'd like to use my reaction.
Starting point is 00:35:25 A counterspell as counter spell. You may. Oh. That wasn't changing in 20404, right? It was. Oh, I can't do that. You can. But he needs to make a saving throw.
Starting point is 00:35:38 Look up how coming- I need to make a saving throw, don't I? Well, no, we got to resolve the stack, Rich. Oh, that's right. Yeah, we're on the stack, now. I just know it's different now in 2020. I don't know how it works. Let's look it up.
Starting point is 00:35:47 You attempt to interrupt a creature in the process of casting a spell. The creature makes a constitution saving throw. On a fail save, the spell dissipates with no effect. Ah. So you could still pass it. Well, but you would do mine first. Yes. So he could pass it, but you have to beat money.
Starting point is 00:36:03 Once you can't get a roll. It's on the stack. It's on the stack. It's on the stack. I don't know the stack. I don't know the stack. We're fucking no stack. I'm going to make a constitution.
Starting point is 00:36:15 I'm going to make a constitution. Constitution saving throat to see if mine goes off on your name. What is your DC, sir? Do you take his reaction? That's a good point. Does he have his reaction? I didn't use a reaction. No, does, what's his name? What's for Fang? Yeah, he hasn't used his reaction. Okay, no. Okay. He has legendary actions. Besides, Dan Gillen gave me permission to do some fucked up shit.
Starting point is 00:36:36 Oh, shit. Oh, no. If St. Dan signed off on it. Yeah, seriously. No. I don't allow it. Oh. Yeah. Khan save DC is 18. That's pretty good. I defy you to beat an 18. He is whispered nine. He fails.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Nice! Nice! He fails. No, no, no! What does it look like as you watch him start to suppress the energy of your near? I think as Megalith is coming out, I imagine he's firing off whatever his spells look like to interrupt it. and I, quickly catching it, shoot out a burst of rapid flame
Starting point is 00:37:20 that spirals into the form of a serpent that consumes his spell. The mouth eats his spells and flies towards the megalade. Oh, you. Insane. I was gonna stop. Get fucked. Tijan definitely says get fucked. And Yornear, you succeed in casting your spell.
Starting point is 00:37:39 So that's my action. Fucking huge. And then with my bonus action, I'm gonna sort of reach out and channel, and I will say, protect me. And one of the runes on the mammoth skull will sort of glow. And you'll hear this very faint mammoth trumpet, as I gain 4D6-10-HP.
Starting point is 00:37:59 That's fucking crazy, chap. The model of ETB's. 18-10 HP. At this level, that's, you know, it's a huge. That's huge. That's huge. That's huge. That's really fucking good.
Starting point is 00:38:11 So what is, is 4D6? 4D6. If you were saying, there it's a 46. 46. Okay. How does how can we do this? As long as we're within the thing. I think it lasts an hour.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Jesus, Derek, is that conversation? You better, you better, you better get your shit to get your shit to get out. Oh, basically it's only there. And so he can dispel it. If he has to spell it, he can very easily dispel it. Fuck him. I look to see him try.
Starting point is 00:38:31 I'd like to see him fucking try too. You hear the voice of Whisper Fang ring out into this wizard's study and he looks at Ty Shed. You little shit! I had it all! And he sends all four of his magic mills. was at you as he uses his next legendary action. I needed to roll 4D4 and add 4 and take that much in force to shield.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Do you a shield? Why? You just used my reaction. Shit. Oh, you did. It doesn't really work. And to be fair, this isn't a ton of damage. This poor bitch? You think I care of this little, this little sorcerer pretender?
Starting point is 00:39:01 I forgot to add my plus one to Magic Missile. I'm doing it now. Game State chat. Oh, man. I did for me. I haven't done. Now, you're all right, bro. That's nothing. I understand level four co.
Starting point is 00:39:12 So, getting to level to... Yeah, plus four, plus four. Should be 13. Six, wow. Good eyes, yeah, 13. Good eye, tuck. Damn.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Sorry. There's only one dragon sorcerer in this room. Oh, get him. I'm a wizard. No shit. Even lameer. Even lamer. I'm a dragon nerd.
Starting point is 00:39:41 It is the poet's turn. Keep him a bay, bro. The Undead Poet Society wakes up to the combat solution. And he is holding you. You're holding him also? No, I'm not grappling him. You're not grappling him. Okay, so he just takes his hand and he goes bonk once.
Starting point is 00:40:00 That's going to be a- More than welcome to balk him. That is going to be a 26 to hit. That'll hit. Okay, you're going to take 18 bludgeoning damage and 10 necrotic damage as all of those infectious boils and what's the word I'm looking for? Pustules. Pustules, no, it's the Barnabas flavor.
Starting point is 00:40:31 He had the- Oh, barnacles. They're popping, all like that. All the stations are all popping out. They're belting smoke and steam and disgusting bile as he's smashed into like that. There's like tube coral that's like withering and wilting. And then he, and then with his other hand, that is holding.
Starting point is 00:40:47 holding onto your shoulder, your neck area. You are shocked by the amount of strength that flows through this, clearly magical. He's shorter than you are, he's smaller than you are, and yet you feel him, start to lift you off the ground. And like a rag doll, he pulls back and throws you. I'm getting Robert Strong!
Starting point is 00:41:09 You are very Robert Strong and he throws you up to 60 feet diagonally into the window on the, inside. You crash into and through the window, I need you to make a dexterity saving throw. I advantage on those. What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:41:26 Oh. Through the window? You got a bottom of all. You take one bludgeoning damage. You all watch as Barnabos, the heaviest, strongest fucker alive, is lifted off his feet and tossed like a football. 18. 18.
Starting point is 00:41:40 18. You save and you take zero bludgeoning damage. Oh, no, no. That's not for the, the, the hit, you are gonna need to make two dexterity saving throws. My apologies. The first one was for your crash into the window to see how much damage you took,
Starting point is 00:41:56 which you took half of one, which means you take zero. You are not prone. However, you are flying out of windows. 17. 17 is enough. You are able to, with your anchor, hang on to the actual window, and you find yourself on the other side.
Starting point is 00:42:09 Looking down, you realize you are 200 feet in the air. The winter, worse and snow and ice, blowing all around you. The cool interior of this space is suddenly made loud with the sound of rushing snow as the blizzard pours in and you watch snow particles
Starting point is 00:42:27 flying into this space. Chaos is everywhere. Whosper Faye is a monster! Kill him! The poet is going to run up towards Tysheni's movement, and that's going to be the conclusion. No. Oh, chill.
Starting point is 00:42:41 No. No. No. The heathing and screaming. Scrim. Scrim. Oh, he doesn't do anything? No, he uses action to fucking deep barnboats
Starting point is 00:42:56 across the goddamn- Just closing the time. Oh, Andre, I don't even care about it. With this, I'm going to use the last legendary action that Whisper Fang has to use his flyby to return to his original position. Fuck, that was here, which I should still be okay. He flies back flapping his wings. Yes!
Starting point is 00:43:14 Yes, yes, kill them, kill them, kill them! Scream you're up. The, as of all of this chaos is breaking out around me, I mean, this is like fucking crazy. In my right hand, the brutal blade is materializing in smoke. With my free object interaction, I take my left hand, and I grab Daisy's hand, and I look at her in the eye and say, listen, Kett, this is all going
Starting point is 00:43:35 past shape real quick. You don't stay here. If things go bad, you live. Promise me. All right, heads up, here I come! And I run directly, it was pretty. for fang, and I move 35 feet, 510, 15, 20, 25, 30, without getting into fucking bullshit of that motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:43:55 As I'm running, though, I'm gonna use my bonus action to use the heel that your owner here's given me. You run through that magic. Can I borrow 46? Yes, please. I'll roll it and I'll calculate it. Just cross it. You feel the shot on bonus action.
Starting point is 00:44:09 Is the shy-Holletti over there? Probably. Is. Nicky had it. Yeah. Oh. Oh. Oh, shit!
Starting point is 00:44:14 Oh, God. Derek, for Game State, can you fish for a crit on me? You were advantage on count my record of the attack. Oh, my gosh. That's pretty good. I didn't. Okay. That's 11 plus 19.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Wow. Manky. That's okay. You were really looking for homework. 11 temp HP. I don't know. Okay, I got 11 temp HP from the heel. Then I have two attacks.
Starting point is 00:44:39 So I am going to basically swing the brutal blade at Whisper Fang twice. see if I can get a hit. Okay. And I can add eight to anything I want, right? You can add eight to ten the thing you want. But I'm probably gonna have to save versus saves because this guy's a fucking nasty mother-
Starting point is 00:44:55 You feel psionically bolstered? I don't want this. Can you, Mike, while you're up, no, no, you're gonna do. Mike, while you're up, can you just adjust Derek's backdrop a little further to the right? Uh, the low. That way. Just like, just pick it up and just move it like a-
Starting point is 00:45:07 Sorry, I think you might tell you. The low is at 23. He looks like he's about to put up his protective sheet but you stab in, it's shocking him, and you're able to get in both of the attacks. I make two absolutely savage attacks. One of them is actually going to trigger my life drinker, which is once per turn when I hit a creature with a packed weapon,
Starting point is 00:45:30 I can deal an additional 1D6 and then expend a hit point to heal that much. Oh. So I actually drain life from him as I hit. So the first damage is going to be, oh, that's pretty good. 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, plus 5 is 16 piercing damage for the first hit. And the second hit is going to do 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 15 piercing damage. So I almost rolled max on all of that.
Starting point is 00:46:01 15? Yeah, 15 for the second one. So 16 and 15. Okay. And I'm going to heal what is my hit die? A D8, I think. I know this. I think it's a D8.
Starting point is 00:46:14 Anybody know? What? D8. Hit die? Hit die. D8. Yeah, it's a lot. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:46:19 I'm gonna heal max, which my con is plus four. I heal 12 points, hit points as well. So that was about as perfectly good as it could go. The only difference is that in addition to it, while I have the chance since I hit him, I'm also gonna add additional 10 damage with my Fury of the Small.
Starting point is 00:46:41 My once-use item or ability to do absolutely massive amounts of damage, as I am just hacking at Whisper Fang being like, take this Whisper Dick! And that's gonna be my whole turn. He's up in the air, but you're able to stab into his side. Ow! Ow! Ow! He's been focused on everything else. He didn't notice you, and that is where
Starting point is 00:47:01 the fury of the small comes in, and he is now suddenly, Ah, you fuck her, get off of me! He's trying to kick you as you stab into his legs over. Come down you, you, you call him! Fuck you! That's my whole turn. He doesn't have any more legendary actions.
Starting point is 00:47:12 It's Daisy's turn. Oh. It's Daisy's turn. She looks left. She looks right and she looks over at Barnabot. She races over to the window and attempts to essentially give the help action to try to pull you in. She doesn't have the strength, but she's like they're almost for support trying to assist you. And at the same time, she is looking left and right, trying to process the words of scrim and figure out what she can do to contribute.
Starting point is 00:47:44 We'll be fine. She looks around, and there are all sorts of arcane bubbles in all directions. This is a wizard study. There's mirrors and map cases and crystals and calipers. And she spies what looks like a bronze pot almost. And she looks at it. She reaches out with her hand,
Starting point is 00:48:08 and you can see it suddenly lift up into the air. And she whips it forward attempting to hit a whisper fag. Catapult. Oh, cool. That's cool. Dang. That's cool. Just cool.
Starting point is 00:48:22 She gets a... She hits, but using his reaction, Whisper Fang sees the Copper Pot coming, and this time he does unleash that protective shield. It's just enough for him to deflect it and it clatters off onto the stone floor. He takes no damage from her attack. Damn.
Starting point is 00:48:43 You probably said, but is she still wearing that bug armor? For the most part. She doesn't have the helmet. You don't see the helmet anymore. But she's wearing that patch. that she used carapace to latch into her fur and everything along those lines. She doesn't say anything, she can't.
Starting point is 00:48:59 But she does look down as though she can try to perhaps help you up Barnabas. We are at the top of the round. That's you Barnabos. Does she get me out? This BFA music? I would say that you can move in, yes. You can move in one-goy.
Starting point is 00:49:19 So fucking good. This I think is the trailer. Maybe I'm wrong. Just one square. Oh, it's one square? Yeah. Okay. So I have the barbarian feature, fast movement.
Starting point is 00:49:30 So let me control F fast movement. Okay. One, two, three, four, or five, what? Hey, Bonobus. Welcome back. My Fass movement! What does that feature do? What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:49:48 What can they possibly do? Do you use double your movement? I just add ten movement. Oh, he moves fast. I use a bonus action. You just see with it done. Or anything for... I don't think so.
Starting point is 00:50:00 Diz got me up. Oh, oh, oh, yeah. Sorry, okay, okay. I get it up. I'm gonna give some temporary hit points and quite a lot of them, actually. 12, 17, 22 attempt. How did that icy blue marker?
Starting point is 00:50:17 And then I am going to swing at Whisper Fang. Natural Twum. Let's fucking go. Gave this little bitch of skull. Natural 20, folks. So that is 4D6. And because I forwent my advantage, I'm so recklessly attacking.
Starting point is 00:50:38 That is 2D10. Gross. And there's no way, no, it certainly wouldn't count the psychic damage from, no. It's only when you roll dice. Yep. No, no, it should.
Starting point is 00:50:50 No, but it's not, it's not my natural. It's not my natural. It's not my natural. Let me just deal a little bit of damage here. Let me just deal a little bit of damage here. That is going to be a nine. That is going to be nine.
Starting point is 00:51:05 13, 13, 13, 19, 23. That's a lot of damage. That is a lot of damage. That is a lot of damage. 27. 31, 31, 35. Carry the two. 35, yeah, sorry, sorry, 38, 42 points of weaponing damage.
Starting point is 00:51:31 Nice. Yeah! As I'm just bellowing, as I smash my anchor, once again, he needs to, for the topple, weapon mastery, as I am going to, Mace needs to be a, cause who's a saving throw. Mace does. Me?
Starting point is 00:51:49 No, sorry, sorry, no. He gets, I think so. We all heard, Mace. He gets a natural 20. Okay. I'm like, what are you doing? He's fine. As I am...
Starting point is 00:52:00 And not Tishan. It takes. I am going to... Mike your head just punch me in the face. To, I'm just going in with my crab claw. Once again, I'm swinging up. You're not getting away this time.
Starting point is 00:52:15 Neither you nor you're a monster. As I am going to do that. Shupity, hopefully this hits. I'm an idiot. I'm such an idiot. I forgot not to run combat. I forgot that. Does 17 hit? Oh, 17. Yep.
Starting point is 00:52:30 If he hadn't used his copper pot protective shield, you would have been able to perhaps stop this, but 17 just hits. Okay. Good to know. Fuck them up. And that's an 18. So that is, and I'm just going to use both of my charges of my biz, so he needs to make two wisdom saving throws.
Starting point is 00:52:52 DC16 The first one is a 16 And the second one is literally the same thing 16 okay so no extra thing So I'm just gonna deal the baseline Damage of that's 2D10 Plus 2D6 19 plus
Starting point is 00:53:23 22 28 28 28 36, 36, 42, 42, and that's it. So an additional 42 damage? Oh, hold on, 36 plus 42, yep. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:53:49 Do you use a bonus action? I did. Oh, I did. Oh, I did. Okay, okay. Because I'm snapping with my claws, and the infection of my claws is trying to affect him, but he is too good for that. You slam into him with your anchor.
Starting point is 00:54:04 You slam into him again, doing a tremendous amount of damage. Each time, weekly, he cries out. Whisper Fang, you start to swing in with the third one, but this one he evaporates. He disappears as he uses his bonus action to Misty step. He's only gonna go about 10 feet back, however. He's just gonna get out of everyone
Starting point is 00:54:28 down the hallway. Oh, yeah, oh, perfect. Oh, you little winner. Well, he said 10, but he's going to want to move more. He missed it up 30 feet. So it's like, I got it. Okay. Let me make sure that it's not here.
Starting point is 00:54:41 One second. This was, 10 would be right here, but like, we're like, we're on his ass. Put him there for a second. All right. He's being, you know. I'm doing something. Yeah. He's doing something.
Starting point is 00:54:52 Perfect. He's playing with fire is what he's doing. Uh-oh. Barnabos are right there. What are you doing? He, you don't understand. I've reached into the depths, the depths of the Hexager armament. I am empowered.
Starting point is 00:55:11 I am the most powerful caster there is. And he starts to pull in some energy, and you realize that the Hexager armament, it always just moves at this very slow grinding pace. It doesn't speed up and it does start to glow. And you hear this deep bass rumble from it. As he starts to. to charge up what is clearly an immense amount
Starting point is 00:55:35 of arcane energy. From behind him, you hear this massive gust of wind. As he starts, you start to feel the pressure of this wind hitting you more and more and more and more. Scrim, you feel a terrible sensation. As he looks down at you, you have all these many already existing wounds, burns marks from Arcane energy and everything like that.
Starting point is 00:56:03 You feel him pull a little bit of your blood from one of the wounds. You don't take damage, but you can see your blood swim out almost like a snake. And he looks, now, and he tosses it down. Blood touched, blood touched into the hexature armament. What do you mean? What do you mean blood touched?
Starting point is 00:56:21 What does that mean? I don't need seeds to summon some random plane. All I need is your blood. Let's see where this takes us. He puts up, and he pushes us. open a new portal. And all of a sudden, my portal shifts and shakes, and you all smell not just the snow blowing through into the window,
Starting point is 00:56:41 the arcane smells of his alchemistry in all direction, but the smell of brimstone. As on through the other side of this gate, you see an impossible space, a massive diagonal space with huge plumes of lava falling down from an impossible sky. You have seen this plane once before scratch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:02 And I need everybody to make... Uh-oh. Yeah. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Oh, he's literally sucking us to hell! Oh, no! Oh!
Starting point is 00:57:15 Oh! Oh! Oh! I need everybody to make a strength saving throw. Strength! Shit. Oh, come on. Oh, that's not good.
Starting point is 00:57:27 Should we use some twists? Yes. Oh, good point. Yes. Yes. I'm using test. I have plus Z. I also have plus zero.
Starting point is 00:57:34 I have plus two. I have 23. I don't know. I'm going to get. I already roll. So, I mean, I think we should use three each at least. Yes. We have 20.
Starting point is 00:57:43 I'm going to use, I mean, you're about to get sucked to hell, well. Well, I got a plus eight. I'm going to do. Oh, okay, okay. Yeah. So, then move your, I'd like to use that. I would also like to use three if possible. Then why don't we all use three?
Starting point is 00:57:55 Thank you for the twists. That puts us in 11. Thanks for the eyed trainers. We got 11 twists less. Okay. All right. So I'm going to roll plus three. I have plus zero.
Starting point is 00:58:02 Suck me to help. We're on a strike save. Okay. All right. I got a 17 plus my three is a 20. I think I can save Kets die with a 20. Yes. Do we know the D.C?
Starting point is 00:58:16 We don't. I don't. I got a 17. I think that's okay. I think it's okay. I got a 14. Is there any chance of L.D.C.? You're fucked Ty Chen. You're fucked.
Starting point is 00:58:25 You're fucked. I also need to do Ket. And Daisy. And Daisy. And I totally agree. Grab on some. Oh. Oh.
Starting point is 00:58:35 Everyone at home, I mean, Daisy, you're in trouble. Kett flies back in the straight line, but misses the portal. Oh, my God. He goes all the way to the back, slashing against the wall, barely missing that window. That's an angular maneuver of I've ever seen it. Oh, no! This is so bad.
Starting point is 00:58:54 Daisy also flies backwards hitting that window. I'm going to make a dexterity saving gross. No! Officially, I'm here. People, I'm going to believe me, I'm going to It's a DC 15. Let me see what she's... You don't actually have to do that, by the way. Oh, I kind of like that. I mean, it's up to you.
Starting point is 00:59:12 She's... No, no, no. We establish it in the side story. Rolling publicly for Daisy is 1,000% allowed. Yeah. Because they are these. Oh, this is so bad. You guys are Daisy.
Starting point is 00:59:22 Yeah. You get to see your dice being rolled. The DC is 15. She needs a 13 or higher. What is that? 12. What's her plus? He said 13 or higher. Then we're good. No, she needs her 13. She did a roll of a routine.
Starting point is 00:59:38 Goodbye, Daisy. You hear the sound and all of a sudden it shatters. And she disappears five, ten feet into the swirling mist of the snow. And all of a sudden, you don't see her anymore. And of course, there is no scream. You may remove her from the battlefield. Oh, she's heavy. Yeah, she's like that.
Starting point is 01:00:00 Everyone else manages to hold their ground. I rolled a 14 there. Except for Tyshe. Tysha. See ya. Tai Chen, you fly and all of a sudden you realize that you are being pulled through a portal
Starting point is 01:00:14 into some space you have never seen before. What can only be described as one of the nine hells as you whoosh through? As this is happening? I'm like off the board. I'm in another dimension.
Starting point is 01:00:29 You're in another dimension and we'll get to where you are when your turn starts. When I watch this happen and I watch as Tyshen is getting ripped into this portal, I look, I look at whisperfang and I look him in the eye, I'm like, you idiot, do you even know what you've done?
Starting point is 01:00:45 You fucking moron! I'm trying to kill you, or at least get you all through this portal and then close you in some other insane place. This dumbass. This is not good. Do I have anything else to do with his turn? He sees that most of you are able to resist the initial gust of wind, and so he is going to use
Starting point is 01:01:10 is moving to... We're transitioning to the Zent to Averness. It's actually a great man to the gathering car that I played myself and it killed me. It's in. Oh my god. I can't believe on the literal. I can't believe.
Starting point is 01:01:31 Oh no. There's no way that he can get, um, there's no way that he can get away from you knowing your speeds without going worse. without going vertical. So he is going to fly at a diagonal straight up and into the room. Dude, get him an additional 10 feet of height
Starting point is 01:01:55 and put him, take him that diagonally, that space. Yep, exactly correct. I think fly by fucking sucks. He flies forward and up, and he's looking down at all of you. You're all ends, you're all ends to me. And it's Kett Rosteen's turn. It's quite heavy enough. Sorry.
Starting point is 01:02:16 Sparks slid on the stone floor as he was pushed back, and still he hits the back, taking some amount of bludgeoning damage, and falls back down into his kneeling position. He continues to watch Whisper Fang, waiting for some trigger, some moment, but you do hear in your mind. What do I even do? Barnabose.
Starting point is 01:02:49 You hear the whispers, whispers that are hard to make out. clearly the native tongue of this get the Yankee. But you feel this cyanic charge almost as though if you needed to release it, you'd have just a slight edge. You can add a D8 to an attack rollability checker saving throw. Thank you. You are most welcome. That is the conclusion of his turn.
Starting point is 01:03:10 Tyshen, you are up. Oh, boy. That's it. You can leave the table, Mace. Please leave the table. Well, that's been fun, everybody. Yeah, thanks your plan. High Spam was okay.
Starting point is 01:03:26 This is so much worse than I thought this fight was going to be. Well, nobody thought he was gonna open up a portal of fucking nine hells. I also didn't think that he would be so, like, my old pal Frankenstein, yoked out. What are we actually? No, we knew he was. Get out of here, bro. How far is that? What did you just draw?
Starting point is 01:03:45 This is the hell dimension. What is that? He doubled the length of the boss room. Do we? By sending us to the lower planes. Okay, meta question. Scrim has seen this place before, but does he know what it is? I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:03:58 I don't know if there's some sort of subconscious knowledge that you would have from the hound. I think that you know that you are connected to... I mean, Andy knows where it is too. Graveyard Jack in some way. Right, but but
Starting point is 01:04:09 Scrim doesn't have a name for it. No. I don't think so. I mean, at least when you, because you saw it in the ogre area. Oh, I was sent there. And you didn't know, you didn't know of it at that time.
Starting point is 01:04:21 That's, that's very true. Well, maybe, because I know. Maybe he said, oh, by the way, oh, by the way, And by the way, I forgot to tell you about the name of where I come from. Also sit down for two hours of exposition. You were... You were pushing by the wind.
Starting point is 01:04:36 Your robes catch and came up, and all of a sudden you feel your feet lift off. You fly past your ear. You fly past the hexature armament, and you hit the portal threshold. When you do, all of a sudden, you feel a very strange sensation because while you are traveling this way,
Starting point is 01:04:51 gravity is very different on this plane at a 45-degree angle. You fly out and start. to come to a rest. But as soon as you hit the ground, you can't stop yourself. It's like being on a hill where you're rolling and colliding. You try to grapple onto the rough rocks
Starting point is 01:05:08 and surface of this impossible place. I need to make a dexterity saving throw. Look, I know I couldn't have stopped this, but I can't help but feel like this is my fault. You know, I think Scrib would blame himself. No! No, no. Scrib would never blame himself.
Starting point is 01:05:24 12. 12. The DC is 15. And for every point that you are lower than 15, you move an additional 15 feet in addition to the 15 feet that you slide. You are going to go 30 feet back from the portal. So I was, okay, so I was here. From the portal entrance.
Starting point is 01:05:40 From the entrance. You go 30 feet. One, two, three, four, five, six. Yep. And you're going to be able to repeat that saving through at the beginning of your next turn. But you are falling. Is this lava? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:49 You land and you do almost a cartwheel, a somersault. You are scraping trying to find it. You're getting, it is almost. almost impossible to get your bearings. The sky is a clouds of red undulating smoke. There's lovelas of falling from all directions. Like you've been transformed, transported into the nether of Minecraft.
Starting point is 01:06:09 I'm really sorry that I'm still falling. The DM weaponized my backstory against you. Behind you, you look and you see that you are falling into a river of loaves. You must have some sort of. And all we can tell you. This is all extremely terrifying. As I blast you,
Starting point is 01:06:28 the portal and I hit, I clatter across the rock and ground, maybe I spin backwards as I, as I fly through the ground. I barely am able to get claws into the, into the ground. And I'm panicking. I look around. This is fucked. I've never seen anything like this before. I held to mention, but the portal is still like open in front of me, right? Yes, yes. You look up and through and it almost looks mundane compared to the high reds and yellows and oranges that contrast you in this strange space? I clamor to my feet, and with what little balance I can strike,
Starting point is 01:07:07 I leap just off the ground just a bit just to get a little distance, and then from both my hands and feet, I blast pillars of flame as I cast from me. You fly like a zool. Well fucking done, man. I fly like Zula. I fly like Zula or the commander of the Fire Nation.
Starting point is 01:07:26 That's the cool shit I've ever seen. It's incredible when the, I figure it is now, I think it's actually Commander Zucco. You go full, Tyshend Stark, as suddenly you, and I would say that that actually negates your fall. Fly would defeat that magically for having spent the resource. I think it's very fair to say that, but I would not be in the middle of flying-
Starting point is 01:07:47 You spend a significant spell slot. I would say that you, it takes you a moment for you to sort of get your bearings, but I would say that you are no longer falling the way that you were. Yeah. Sorry, I was, I was. Like here, and I now have 60 feet of flying speed.
Starting point is 01:08:12 So assuming this is all, um, this 5, 10, 15, 50, 5.30,000. Oh, thank God, I was about stop blaming myself. Well, you don't know how you... 560. Oh, you make it half that distance because the wind is still pushing you. Oh, so I'm probably still in the portal. No, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 01:08:31 The wind stops at the portal. Oh, it doesn't blow you. Oh, you come out. Okay. You come out and you make it somewhere. You're 30 feet away. Okay. Okay. So you'd be like right here, right? He's saying that the wind doesn't start until I can in this room. All right. So I'm like normally here. Now I have 30 feet. So I'll go. So presumably I'm, I'm at the portal. Yep. And then five, 10, 15. There you go. Okay.
Starting point is 01:08:54 You, you, you, you are able to somehow reorient. I'm going to go, 50. Wise. You're able to reorient yourself. Oh, my goodness. Kill him. As soon as you pass through the portal, you are again hit with this arcane wind from nowhere rushing past your ears,
Starting point is 01:09:13 and you have to fight it even with your powerful play. If you want a bonus action for temp HP, you'd have to get like. Am I close enough? I can't move any closer. No, I think he's out of moves. You'd have to basically be here instead of there. I mean, the problem is if I fail again,
Starting point is 01:09:27 I go straight back. I see. That's right. If you're healthy enough. I mean, I'd love, I'd love to be. We're playing a game of like lesser evil here. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:38 It's kind of like I can't quite afford it right now. I'll shout. Get out of line of that opening. It's so terrible. It's so terrible dimension. I don't know what it is, but it's lava.
Starting point is 01:09:55 It's a flame and horror. It's pure evil. The poet's about to clap Barnabos in my blood cheeks. Yep. Yeah. You have 30, 60 feet. He's going to eat me 400 yards.
Starting point is 01:10:06 Yeah. You're going to get That's uh... good. That's my that's my whole turn, I think. Oh, fuck. Macy, I can't believe you spot that. I literally can't believe it. I knew. I mean, what I really wanted to do until I got thrown into the hell portal was I had some cool. No, trust me, bro. Trust me. It's always-dice, man. You just got to survive. And every time the bad guys take, that's the problem of D&D, the bad guys are always trying to do shit. Yeah. Why they're trying to do shit? Yeah. That's why. Uh, whisper fang will use his first legendary action. Uh, why aren't you going in, end, end, and, These small arcane missiles hit all of you. I need you each to roll 1D4 and add one
Starting point is 01:10:43 and take that much of force damage. I catch shield. I take three. I take three. I take four. But it goes into my temp HP. It does. It does. Thank God for temp HP.
Starting point is 01:10:54 Yeah. Seriously. You already heard a lot of time. Now that Tyshen is back, is still looking super healthy? No. Well, I'm looking, I'm looking, I'm looking beat up. I'm looking. How's scrim looking? But not like...
Starting point is 01:11:14 I mean, I'm better than I was, but I still look like I got him and get my shit rocked. I'm not half in the bag, but I'm not half in the bag. I'm a quarter of a bag. And also just got his blood taken from him. And then turn to do it. I need that. Hey, that's mine. That's my blood. Wait a minute. That's my blood. What are you doing with that? Oh, my God. You dumb son of a bitch. We need to bring... I think Sneed needs to come and save the day in a cameo.
Starting point is 01:11:38 How do I... The very first Sneat. and do I feel like he is a humanoid? Or the pellet. The, the, uh, whisper feng. The poet or whisper feng? They are both humanoids. They're both human-wines.
Starting point is 01:11:57 I mean, one is a white cobalt and the other is a, oh well, I guess the poet is undead. Okay. You're right. This is important. Well, I'm not sure if he's a dead. He might be a flesh go-goal. He might be. You don't know?
Starting point is 01:12:09 You might be returned to life, which is really strong. With my action, I'm going... The base that lock is very good. I like it a lot. I'm going to reach up, and without a word, my hand will glow and sort of get covered with frost and ice. I love full-second blasts, folks.
Starting point is 01:12:23 Begins to cover him as well. As I cast whole person at the second level. Whole person is so fucking good. He needs to, assuming he's a humanoid. He needs to make a whiz save, where he's paralyzed for the duration. You're, uh, whisper fact? Yes.
Starting point is 01:12:39 He is going to attempt to resist. with a DC... 18. No, 17. 17? DC 17 Wisdom saving throw. Is that correct? He gets a two, and, which I should have done when Tychan Counterspelled his counterspell, he'll use his
Starting point is 01:12:55 legendary resistance. Oh, yeah. That's what you're a fool. We can rewind and I just make the same. Do one legendary resistance you've used? That's the first of the legendary resistances he's used because I've forgotten. He's going to
Starting point is 01:13:09 legendary resist what I'm doing next. Then I will sort of attune with my god, Mammute, and use my bonus action to refresh those 10bhp HP. It's pretty fucking good. Oh, I rolled what I have, so anyway, that's fine. It's worthwhile. That's my turn. Um, did you roll 15? Was there rule 15?
Starting point is 01:13:36 It was 4 and 1 and then 2 fives. So you got 3 fives. Oh, I gained 1 10b HP. Yeah. The poet is up. I got you. Please don't go after me. Don't do that.
Starting point is 01:13:46 Please don't. Don't. Oh, I'll move. Oh, I'll move. Derek, if you ever considered yourself, my friends. You're in a difficult to rain. Just know because of the guns. Oh, one and a half, three, four.
Starting point is 01:13:56 Don't do it, Derek. I'm moving there. I know where you live. A little away. I know what your car looks like. Don't do it. Do not do this. He has advantage on Barnabose, doesn't he?
Starting point is 01:14:05 Yes. Yep. He's going to race over. A annoyed that his attempt to throw you out of the Wizard's Tower failed and seeing that you've done such damage to his master. He turns to you and he turns to you and he gets a fucking 27 to hit and you are going to take
Starting point is 01:14:27 27 to do you're going to take 27 22 points of legending damage and an additional four points of necrotic damage as he grabs you with the first of his multi-attack. Is he within five feet? Is he you have to move up five feet to do it? Uh, I'm just asking because he's not, we didn't move him.
Starting point is 01:14:50 Thank you. Move him. He hits you now that you're in reach, and then he's going to use the second part of his multi-attack to hurl once again. By nature of hitting, he is grappling you, and by nature of grappling you, he is throwing you. I can't stop this.
Starting point is 01:15:06 I can't, wait. This is so bad. Presumably the throw starts here, I guess. Probably is in his space. Yeah, in his space. 1, 2, 3, 20, 25, 30, 30, 40, 40, 45. 50, 55, 60. Yep.
Starting point is 01:15:24 You are in mid-air when your turn starts next to come as you fly and suddenly you find yourself staring at a very different scene. I'll be back. Oh, God. The poet, he's going to use the remaining
Starting point is 01:15:44 part of his speed to take a step forward and get between Scrim and the Master. He doesn't have any more juice left, but he is looking intimidating and growling down at you as though you're next, Scrim. I don't like that. That is a conclusion of his turn, and it is your turn, Scrim.
Starting point is 01:16:00 I am, everything's a mess. Oh, Daisy flew at the window, too. Yeah, she's gone. She's gone. We can't really. I can't help with that. There's nothing I can do. Scream's bad.
Starting point is 01:16:11 Scrim's gonna use his bonus action, though, and raise the brutal blade up in the air and then point it at Whisper Fang, as I use a bonus action, to Hexblades curse him. Oh. So as a bonus action, I choose a creature that I can see within 30 feet.
Starting point is 01:16:30 I curse it for one minute. Against the curse target, I gain plus four damage to bonus rolls. Oh, sorry, plus four bonus damage, two rolls, and I get a critical hit on in 19 or 20, and I regain 15 HP if it dies. That last part's not really relevant. But I am going to continue to curse at Whisper Fang
Starting point is 01:16:48 and tell him how stupid he is that he doesn't understand what he's done by using my blood to open this portal. And after I feel the curse take effect on Whisper Fang, I will release a Witchbolt at level 5 and attempt to hit him with WitchBolt. Oh, yeah. So I'm going to start by rolling to see if I hits.
Starting point is 01:17:06 And then if I don't get enough, I'm probably going to use my Ket Rustin die to add to it. Actually, no, that's going to be a 26 to hit with Witchbolt. 26? Yeah. He can't even shield. You do hit.
Starting point is 01:17:25 That'll be six D12 damage. Can I get some D12s? Oh my God. I need five D12s total. I got you. I only got one. I gave Mikey Quab. That's fine.
Starting point is 01:17:34 One. That's four. That's good. That's good. I can rerol two of them. That looks like, what is that, a 10, a 12. That's 22, plus eight is 30, plus five is 35. 35.
Starting point is 01:17:51 35, 45, 45. 56. Holy shit. 56 points of lightning damage? Yes, it's lightning damage. Lightning damage as this horrific, dark, crackling energy leaps from the tip of the brutal blade, striking whisper fang with everything that I've got.
Starting point is 01:18:15 You said 56? 56 points of lightning damage. As I almost feel empowered by the opening of this portal, I feel closer. to Graveyard Jack that I have in a long time. And this beam is just connecting us, as I am just giving him everything I've got. You see that Whisper Fang is terribly damaged.
Starting point is 01:18:36 In the same way that you were fried and smoking, almost like a cartoon, Wiley Coyote style earlier at the start of his combat. Whisper Fang is now looking very much the same. Crispy, searing flesh, he lets out a scream, and then you hear a voice from across the room. Zatis, that is, suddenly having held his action, Ket Raskin uses Zephyr strike, and he races forward,
Starting point is 01:19:05 flying forward, and is able to leap up into the air and make a slash attack. So, foe-this guy's got cross-slash. He empowers the spells ionically and is able to, and is able to get enough damage that he can't be shielded. So just one moment, let me go and read this. How much damage does he do? He only has one hand, but he's able to make a jumping,
Starting point is 01:19:37 athletic swirl in the air as he swings down and cuts. He's going to do some additional damage on top of your damage there. Scrim. And he's going to do... Oh, it plus psychic damage. Good for me. He leaps up in the air, and you see him land on the other side. of, yeah, right there. He's gonna lie next me. Exactly right.
Starting point is 01:20:11 I'm moving closer to him too, just to keep it within this bell range. He stumbles when he lands. It is not a graceful land. Oh no. He falls and you hear the clatter of his sword, but looking up, you see this spray of blood as both of Whisper Fang's wings disappear off of his back
Starting point is 01:20:26 and he collides with the floor, landing down, screaming bloody murder. Ah! What's fucking... Holy hell! And that's my whole turn. It also gets turned, I guess. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:20:39 Dave's turn and top of the round, Barnabos, you're up. Oh, God. Is he concentrating on the wind? Is that like what's causing that? The broken windows, right? We don't know. It seems to be arcane in nature. The wind is the spell that he's concentrating on?
Starting point is 01:20:55 It would be if somebody hadn't told me to put in parentheses is no concentration required. I was say, he makes you know that it was arcane in nature. I was gonna say taking 56 points of damage. So can you describe, I'm in mid-air. What does this look like? You are pushed out. Oh, over here?
Starting point is 01:21:13 Yeah, back to the hell dimension. You have gone, let's say icy hot. What was a blustering windy, snowy space filled with particles of ice as all of this magic is flying around and blood splattering on the stone floors. You disappear through the portal and it is swelteringly hot. It is like suddenly you are thrust into an oven. As you look around, you crash into the floor,
Starting point is 01:21:41 and I need to make a dexterity saving throw at the start of your turn as you land. I'm advantage on those. Thank God. Oh. We know! Easy. I'm an advantage on those.
Starting point is 01:21:52 I don't know if you knew this about me. Guys, you think he's advantage on this? 21. 21, with a 21, you only slide 15 feet. You are able to use the rest of your turn, and you are no longer falling. as you dig the anchor into the earth. He slipped to slide 15 feet?
Starting point is 01:22:09 Yeah, he's slide 15 feet. You dig your anchor down and you were able to come to a stop. Turning around behind you, you realize that the commotion of the portal having opened and the commotion of all of this, there are creatures that Tyshen had not described as two magma-like creatures start to flap their wings and pull themselves out of the... the, out of the river. Uh-oh. Oh.
Starting point is 01:22:40 That's it. Holy! That said, they don't have a turn for a little while, and they're just there for the fake, you know, I didn't know if there was gonna be a bunch of them or one. Would I be able to use my climb speed to get up this? Oh, that's very interesting. I'll give you two you. Sure.
Starting point is 01:22:58 Fort five. I look around. I looked at them like, this is worse than the locker. Oh, shit. As I will use my full action to dash. Okay. I am dashing.
Starting point is 01:23:18 So that is, I believe, 80 feet of movement. The crab legs come down. As my crab legs as my crab legs will clamp down, I will scuttle. Ergot style. Yep. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
Starting point is 01:23:36 That's my, and then difficult terrain. And now it's difficult terrain now that you're out. Difficult terrain. Um, so that's one. So that's one. Right. No, he's up. I got, I got another 40.
Starting point is 01:23:45 Yeah, yeah. I'd have another four. But it'll be difficult terrain. Oh, yeah. So yeah. So 10, 20, 30, 34. Yep. Wow.
Starting point is 01:23:53 Um, well done. As I am saying, you can't send me to hell that easy. I've already been to hell once before. And it was in the belly of the beast. I'm not going. back as I am going to use my bonus action. I don't think there's anything else I can do
Starting point is 01:24:13 to besides what? Oh, never mind. I am going to use my bonus action to raise up. Grant me the protection of the mammoth. As I will say, for you, Mamot, the triad, whoever, as I, as I will call upon the power of whatever gods will help me, and that is my turn.
Starting point is 01:24:42 And I'm going to roll my temp HP, that's it. 46. That's my turn. Good turn. Yeah, that shows fucking crazy. Good turn. Well fucking played. A lot of time, but better than nothing.
Starting point is 01:24:59 These magmen guys are like, oh man, when did it fight? I'm just sending out a nice T-spread for it. I wanted some tripe fish. Yeah. Oh, I hope they're mud meth it so that I can get a bunch of people to unsubscribe from the channel. That's really funny. That's actually fucking hilarious. Yeah, that's amazing.
Starting point is 01:25:26 That's amazing. Derek, can I clarify something that you said? Yeah. When you said one of the nine hills, do you mean one of the lower planes instead? I meant one of the lower planes, but I was also thinking from the lens of the character who might not know that the other lower planes exist. I think that's probably exactly correct. I just wanted to... Thank you.
Starting point is 01:25:42 Clarify that. That's meta knowledge. Yep. He just know it looks like hell. I don't even know if we know what the Bator is. Or not hell. I don't. Before I take Whisper Fing's turn and before we continue combat,
Starting point is 01:25:58 I need a bit of a biobreaker. Let's take a break. Oh, yeah. Let's have a coffee. Let's take a break. I love session long boss fights, folks. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God.

Starting point is 01:26:48 Thank you. You are... That's a great combat. You are going to have to update the battle map for me because of GameScape. The monsters technically went, so if you could just move
Starting point is 01:27:04 those magma map, it's... Oh, 30 feet towards me as they serve as to fly towards the portal. And now... There's 30 feet of flying?
Starting point is 01:27:13 Not more than that. That's it. Let me actually double check that. Double jacket. You know what? Flying, I think, is usually, like, am worst 40. You know what's crazy? Only half of the methods are in the SRD.
Starting point is 01:27:28 You can believe that? There's so many people. Ask me how I know. I mean, I don't tell any lords. Don't tell no ding-dong lores. Don't tell no ding-nown lawyers. I actually, I don't know that for any reason. I don't know that for any ding-dong reason.
Starting point is 01:27:47 That's funny. It's fun. I love how the person plugs. Fly speed 30. I'm just, just, ding and dash. Checking, yeah. They can dash. Oh, yeah, they can dash.
Starting point is 01:27:58 Five, ten, fifty, they can dash, they can dash, they can dash, they can dash, they can dash. They can see. You get to the portal entrance? They can get to the portal entrance. They can get to the door, I'm gonna kill you right. You all look at the entrance, this open portal and they're not three at all that.
Starting point is 01:28:16 They're kind of behind the, oh, okay, okay. Oh boy. It's meaningfully important. They are flapping and, uh, uh, covered in what is clearly almost like an ooze bubbling off of them lava and looking mindless and hungry. Wait, really? Oh no, you're good. Yeah, yeah, I just did this. If we could see them. I was updating Game State. Right. Barnabos just took his turn. Yep. Kett went ham. Ket went bananas. Ket went ham because he was holding his action. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:49 And then Barnabos took his turn. He managed to go. So Worcester Fang's up now? Yeah, and so right now we're here. I might not get another turn, guys. Let's go. Let's see. I might not get another turn. Let's see, we have a lot of twists now. You hear using his last, the script about the wishbone by the poet.
Starting point is 01:29:06 Using his last legendary action before his turn, Whisper Fang whispers. Oh, my princess, oh, protect me, protect me. Oh, by your power. And a pulse of cold magic swirls around him as he is almost surrounded by like a miniature winter storm. Everyone within. Yeah, that's me. I'm within. Uh-oh. A 15-foot emanation. Oh. Needs to make a Constitution saving for a DC-7. Am I targeted? That's everyone.
Starting point is 01:29:37 Or is it just a fuck. Oh, not you. You're good. Not you. Oh, really? DC-15. What? DC-17. Oh, okay. I'm gonna have to roll the con and then also roll concentration for my spell. Okay. I'm not on advantage on these. Uh, 21. 22. You succeed. Oh, God, I got an 18. Holy fuck. 22. You succeed.
Starting point is 01:30:00 Okay. We're going to take half of this. Eight cold damage. Okay. Nothing. Nothing. Or half? Or half if you've succeeded.
Starting point is 01:30:13 Okay. And if you failed, you would have been at half speed until the beginning of the next turn. Okay. Oh, well. So then to roll, I just have to roll, like, I have advantage on concentration of saving throws. Beautiful.
Starting point is 01:30:27 Easy, piece. Okay. It's his turn. He is going to crawl 10 feet and cowering hide next to the poet. Five, ten, and you can go diagonal to get to the other side there. He's going to hide. The whole time, though, I'm like, cooking us. Help me. We're fucking connected. Even though it's at disadvantage because of his loss of coordination, the diminished is going to take a swipe at him. And unfortunately, he's gonna get a natural 20 and an eight, so he misses. Oh. And what am I going to do here?
Starting point is 01:31:08 I had this entire break to think about it, and I'm still a little. What's what going on? Just use the die move. He's got a bunch of twists. Just use the die. Wow. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 01:31:18 We use the die move. Come on. Come on. This is a die move. Everybody knows he's got a dime move. Everybody knows he's got a dime move. He's got a dime move? Okay.
Starting point is 01:31:29 Well, instead, what he's going to do is he's going to send out for Arcane Blasts. He's going to send the first one, and it's going to whip around to the room. You see papers and parchment flapping in all direction. Matt's crusting with ice as Tishen. You're going to need it hit from the side. I need you to make it.
Starting point is 01:31:52 We'll see if this hits first and foremost. Oh yeah, for sure that. hits. That's gonna be 26 to hit. Oh, okay. Oh yeah, okay. That's going to be... It kind of signs a little bit like... 12 cross damage and I need to make a dexterity saving for him. Do you do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do you, um, deck save you, so. I'm gonna use two twists. I'm just gonna say it. Yeah, use two, or do you only three? I got close four. I mean, I can use three. I'll use three. Three twist, mark it down. So we're at 19. Oh, 19. Yep.
Starting point is 01:32:33 24. Didn't need them. 24? Didn't need them. Uh, chat's been asking, so I'm gonna ask you to Twisted Dread that. You still have your twist? You told your twist. You told your twist. What a .
Starting point is 01:32:43 You still have three to it. You still have three. So you got. What a piece of . It goes both ways. Oh. Fucking brutal. Dread for the DM.
Starting point is 01:32:54 Dread for the DM. Dread against the D. It's now a nine. It's a nine. Unfortunately, you fail. You fail. You're pushed diagonally into the portal. As you fly back.
Starting point is 01:33:06 What the hell? You're still flying, though. You go. Well, actually, I've been hit, so I have to roll for concentration. You should do that, yeah. You do. So, I took 12 damage. DC is still 10.
Starting point is 01:33:15 Yeah. Until you take 22 damage, the DCs. Because it has to be double whatever you're fucking, yeah. You crushed it. Okay, so you're still flying. How far does he get back back? He goes 15 feet. One and a half.
Starting point is 01:33:27 One and a half until... Can you get into this guy? I would say he gets in the middle. In the middle of them. One and will resolve his... I said a demon! I'm going cuckoo bananas! He still has three of these fucking things.
Starting point is 01:33:41 He's going to hit Barnabos next. That's going to be a 22 to hit. 22 will hit me. Make a dexterity saving throw. I be advantaged at those. Okay, thank you, Ray. Mystery or near. You take 15 force damage.
Starting point is 01:33:55 Hold on. Dexterity, I only got a 12. A 12. You have pushed back 15 feet and he's going to hit you with another arcane blast. But you're not in the first. portal, yeah. This is going to be more damage. Make another dexterity.
Starting point is 01:34:07 Oh, so how much was it? Sorry, sorry. How much? 15. It was 15. The first or 15. He's not hitting you again. And then another 15 for the second one. Into the portal he goes. 30 damage total. Only if he fails his next 630. So he took 30 damage. 34th damage. Okay. Now I'm a good. Uh, uh, uh, dexterity saving throw. I would say nothing. Uh, but I got an 18. In 18, we managed to hold on. Uh, he sends another arcane blast your way because he sees,
Starting point is 01:34:34 that you're close. That's gonna be a 22 to hit. That's going to be- You better pass this, Michael. Five is 12 points of four standard. 42 total points of damage. I think gosh, I'm a barbarian with so much Constitution. Oh.
Starting point is 01:34:48 I mean, yeah, I got a 21. Holy shit. Oh, so now I just roll once. 17? You can drive me again? Drive me again? No, no, DC 17. Drive me again if you want.
Starting point is 01:35:03 I only use them. once per wrong. He's got nine left, so don't listen. I can crash in them. Don't antagonize him. I'm pumping the gas as hard as I can. This clab dice, spelled dice, crab. As he crawls, you can see the blood pouring out from his robe from the back of
Starting point is 01:35:19 his now completely destroyed back where he once had these wings. He's been clipped. He's whimpering and calling for his princess. That is the conclusion of his turn. Ket Ross King is up. He
Starting point is 01:35:33 I was going to go to chat, I was going to go the way of Coleman Trebor from attack of the clones all the real ones real ones will know that's not like slees bagana Coleman Trebor or Coleman Trevor he's the guy who's a Jedi he was a dinosaur he leaps and he can easily kill him do kielko and and Django if he just like this and then he's got shot and falls off I was going to go to him Coleman You're getting ripped off. Ketros-Ping whispers to himself and summons his dionic energy. He's still very diminished from his time in the dungeons, and he knows that he may not be at his top form, but he vanishes as he uses his teleport ability and appears on the other side of whisper fang.
Starting point is 01:36:22 Oh. And speed. And at disadvantage, he's going to attempt to attack. Disprivilege on a prone creature. If he's blown 100%, okay, so he's just going to roll. once it cancels itself out, he's still going to miss. The blade clams down. Sparks flying.
Starting point is 01:36:39 He's a slippery little fuck. Against the stone floor. He does his best, but that is the conclusion of his turn. He's got a rough going to ask. He's in turn. What am I looking at it? What's in front of me? I'm in the hell.
Starting point is 01:36:52 A spray of missiles flies out as he uses his first legendary action. I need... Cat Raskine's already going to take some damage. That's going to be a roll of D4. Yornear, Scrim, and Barnabos. roll a D4 and take three points more damage. I said one temporary hit point left. Plus one? Yep.
Starting point is 01:37:10 Fuck, I keep rolling max. Joyner, this has been so clutch. I still have temp HB. Harvest Moon Glow. Available on D&D. Beyond. And I'm gonna use it again on my fucking totem. What am I looking at in front of them? These weren't here the last time I was in.
Starting point is 01:37:25 The last time I was in hell, these were here. All of a sudden you see this creature, it looks like it's made out of bones of, uh, uh, uh, coal, like literally embers. They're bright red, yellow, and orange. And they are oozing lava. As they flap their hands, you can see it, shaking lava off as it almost seems to emanate
Starting point is 01:37:47 from every single one of the pores of these nightmare, long-beached creatures. They look at you as you fly by and you hit the ground, and I need you to make a dexterity saving throw. I am flying. Oh, are you? I am flying. You still hold onto it?
Starting point is 01:38:01 You do not slide. You do not slide. to roll, you do not have any risk of falling into the fire. You start your turn there and now it's your turn. I'm terrified. You know, I'm terrified. That's the great lessons of the- Jeremy.
Starting point is 01:38:18 The fear. Did you say Jeremy? My heart is racing, it's pumping. I see these terrible creatures in front of me. I think of the herald of fear. I think of the nightmare chained in the basement. I steal myself against the fear that's welling inside of me. and I try and fly between them and blast through the portal.
Starting point is 01:38:44 Okay. Evoking presumably two attacks on opportunity. Yes, they slash at you with their magma claws. The first one's gonna be a seven to hit, the second one's gonna be a 13 to hit. You fly through them. Tyshen Sarkstyle and rocket back through the platform. I blast out.
Starting point is 01:39:02 So there's also a difficult terrain. No, when he had his guns cut off, off the gust of wind diminished. Now the only thing that's happening in this room is the two open windows are giving me to blow snow in. So there's no more gust of wind. I move here, and if you'll permit, I would just like to use my innate sorcerer bloodline energy
Starting point is 01:39:30 to look back at this portal and attempt to get some kind of magical sense of whether or not I think this is a spell or a persistent magical, that I might be able to interact with. Low DC, but Arcona, check. Oh, 15. 15. You remember the rumbling and the words of Whisper Fang
Starting point is 01:39:57 that sound that he is connected with the hexature armament and that it was that connection that allowed him to use its planer opening abilities, connecting it to the lower planes. You do not think that this is a spell. You believe that this is a spell. You believe that this is a effect that he has triggered from the armature itself. So let me, I, so maybe I'll know this, maybe I wouldn't.
Starting point is 01:40:28 What I'm, what I'm thinking is, if I look back at this portal, do I think at a fifth level it makes sense to cast a spell magic? Is one creature, object, or magical effect within range? any ongoing spell of level 3 or lower on the target ends immediately for each ongoing spell of 4 or higher on the target I make an ability check using my spell casting ability plus that spells plus the DC 10 plus the spells level on a successful check that spell on it. You in my opinion?
Starting point is 01:41:04 Wait until varmos goes to the portal then the spell. I got it. Don't turn. You can totally turn. You can totally No, no, no. That's not gonna work. With a 15. And that's totally fine. Um, your dispel magic at fifth level.
Starting point is 01:41:25 Do you have any spells lots left? A fifth bowl of spells on. I say he's gonna be scraping the bottom of the barrel here soon. You would still have to make a check. I cast a single spell, so I'm also scraping the bottom of the barrel. That's right. That's very funny. God, Warlocks, everybody.
Starting point is 01:41:43 It's pretty rough. It's pretty rough. I talk to me. Okay. So I'm gonna, I'm gonna like, I'm in the air. I'm flying out of it. here. I turned back towards the portal and for a moment, the flames keeping me aloft, I'll pause them, but I kind of do this flip almost and let the inertia of the flight keep me in the
Starting point is 01:42:03 air. As I like kind of blast out this beam of circular fire that will attempt to wrap around the portal and see if it can constrict it and close it as I cast it to spell magic at a fifth level. Okay. You need to make an ability check using your spell casting ability We need to twist this. Yeah, this might be a fiver. That's a fiverer. This is a fiverer. This is a fiverer Which will put us to 14 twists 14 twists, okay, that's enough. I'll tell you right now that the DC is 17 I think it's a fiver. Yeah, no, this is so important Ability check using your spell casting. Yeah, what's your what I just roll out there is my oh it's gonna be a 20 plus five plus
Starting point is 01:42:46 10 so just add 10 yeah Because we need a hot twist on this. So roll seven or above. It's one at six, is it? Derek Dreadman. Yeah. Dredman. Now is the time.
Starting point is 01:43:03 Derek, I roll the natural 20. I don't do you. When he rolls. It's a four. It's a four. Mace, I just want you to know. You're the reason I drink. You're the reason I drink.
Starting point is 01:43:15 Oh my God. You push out and the arcway, it remains solid. And you see a arcway, it remains solid. a tremendous shimmer, but as the flames recede, the portal remains intact. It's too strong! But I'm value. If this isn't, I'm gonna say that if that was 5, 10, 15, 20,
Starting point is 01:43:44 25, 30. Is this gonna give me in range of the healing thing? Like right about- Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, you're there. You're there. I'm gonna then go up 10 feet. Oh, oh, I got you. And I'm gonna use a bonus action to take advantage
Starting point is 01:44:02 advantage of the heel with just 46. 46, right? Oh, gee-d-6, yes. 12. I'll yield 12 points of damage. That's my turn. You're ready, you're up. Dude, that was a great trap, man.
Starting point is 01:44:29 Great trap. Let me just check something real quick, and then I will... You're 20 feet up. You fly? 10 feet. 10 feet? If that's one square, I could go down. One square, I think it's 10...
Starting point is 01:44:49 Oh, no, I thought they were five each. We've been doing it five, because there's a... Five each. feeling got it um I am going to uh look around at the battlefield how's everyone looking I still look I look beat up I'm pretty beat up I'm pretty beat up I just saw you get blasted I got blasted by a lot of this you just escaped a hellscape I'm not doing great I'm beat up I'm beat up I will say you all watches my blood was stolen from my body I'm bloodied for sure I'll be
Starting point is 01:45:20 leaning on my staff Dracar, I beseech you. Mahmuth is strong, but we are very far from home. Please, lend us your strength. Dracar! And you hear the drums and the chanting from the theme song. Yeah, we are fucking do. From this monolith, grow louder and louder and louder.
Starting point is 01:45:49 and your ear will be enchanting the ho as the drums are going oh oh as I use mask cure wounds in a fifth I'm going to have to have an attempted counter spell you're going to have to make a constitution saving five twists I would like to take five twists to do that that'll put us some nice nine nine twist what's the DC it's his DC and his DC is 17. Was it a con save? It's a con save.
Starting point is 01:46:33 Yep. You gotta just be enough still. That's still gotta be enough. 19. Yeah. 19 passes. You were able to withstand as he lifts up his hand, his blighted hand, and he tends to stop you, but he slips and falters.
Starting point is 01:46:52 My eyes glow. I don't even see what he's doing. I'm just chanting as this sound and this energy from this, Megalith pierces the room and I think it affects everybody I believe up to me just make sure this is fucking huge Oh my god this is turned the tie. This is turned the tie. This is maddened six one two three four five says everybody this turns the tie Can I get some d8s please I got one I'm in one one two three I'm good I'm good thank you one two three four five Oh please roll go uh he's not bad not bad eight
Starting point is 01:47:32 Not bad at all. 16. That's fucking huge. 25 points of healing. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, that's massive. To everybody? To everybody. Hell yeah, bro.
Starting point is 01:47:42 Peter's back on the menu, boys. And then as part of that, I will also use my bonus action to gain, to re-up the temp. Has I turned? I'm gonna stay right there. Oh, is the monolith giving temp HP? It's not healing. It's 10.
Starting point is 01:47:56 Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah. Uh, I don't remember what I rolled, but I just added it in my health. I think that's cheap. It was like nine or ten over that. I think it was like 13. So I was 11 and I had six so I only got gained five, 10 page pay from max.
Starting point is 01:48:12 Got it, got I got it, got I got it. Oh, that's you. Is this you, Mike? Yeah. This is you. That's my turn. An eruption of small red dark emerged from the floor as missiles hit each one of you.
Starting point is 01:48:26 You need to take 1D4 plus one damage as Whisker Fang. My princess please! My princess? Uh, suddenly, scrimmed, you feel a... Hmm! Yeah, I know. A massive mitt...
Starting point is 01:48:40 It's over. It's all over. I've been caught. As you were caught. Did he hit him? I had hoped to roll higher, but... Shut up, Derek. Shut the fuck up.
Starting point is 01:48:53 What is it? Son of this. Yeah, I'm gone. Yeah, you're done. I'm gonna be turned into right this. No, you... Oh! You're literally getting the mountains. You're literally getting the mountains.
Starting point is 01:49:02 The only reason I might survive is because you heal me. Okay. I'm gonna get red mist in here. D20 roll was a natural 20. Oh. I'm going to rules. I use anti-crit. If only I use the same shit
Starting point is 01:49:17 this whole time, it is not a crit anymore. Yeah, I'm cooked. I'm cooked. I don't even know Daisy went out the window. I've been under constant this whole time. No idea she's been on. She was standing here when that happened. None of us would have seen that. We've been in, I've been under constant duress. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:49:30 I told him to get to cover. I was in hell. How is it hell when that happened? I'm cooked. You take 29 bludgeoning. And you take a lot of necrotic. Please, please, please. All right, I'm alive.
Starting point is 01:49:43 That's what, 30? 40. 40? I'm alive. No way. I'm alive. Only just healed me. That's the only reason. You're about to get you're grappled.
Starting point is 01:49:51 You're about to get sick. You're not. And then you feel your feet lift the ground. So real quick, the question is, it was all 40 together? There's all 40 together. Okay, so let me roll, Constitution, same thing.
Starting point is 01:50:03 Oh, no, it was. It was, it was. Concentration. Yeah, second. Yeah, just make sure. So I have advantage on them. And the DC is 20. This is possible.
Starting point is 01:50:12 Yeah, it's possible. It's possible. Yeah, because I have plus four to con. You've got this. That is unfortunately cocked. Nah, that's close. That's cocked. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:50:22 It's like, it was perfectly cocked. It was only, it wasn't cocked because it was on the map. And the map is, is, is, no, that was not cocked. It wasn't, it was like this. No, it was like this. No. Then I get a 21. Richie is our rule of work.
Starting point is 01:50:33 It's only cut out because our fucking battle map is I get a 21. I get a 21 of my costume saving throw. The problem is as soon as he eats me 30 yards the witch bolt breaks. Because I get out of rage. Yeah, he's going to. It doesn't matter. Okay. All right. Goodbye for one. He gives you 60. I'm toast.
Starting point is 01:50:49 510, 15. 20, 25, 30, 45, 40, 45 50. In the middle here. You watch as the, I'd like to tether between me and Whisper Fang breaks as I go. Your reaction? You say that? Getting heated.
Starting point is 01:51:03 You watch as grim is. I'll try. Flies past you. I'm gonna react. As he's flying through the air, if I may. As he's flying under me, I'll all like spin down and shoot like a light blast of golden flame. And I'll cast feather fall.
Starting point is 01:51:22 Oh. Which will slow his rate of falling to 60 feet per round until it ends. And if he lands, he takes no damage. from the fall. You have your reaction. You can do that. I do. You do it. You, uh, watching him fly by, you know you don't have time to grab him, but you are able to infuse him with this magic energy, and you feel that Fujo follows him through the portal as he disappeared. It's not just the yellows and reds and oranges of magma that you fly into. There are these golden, uh,
Starting point is 01:51:56 loaded, uh, loaded. Alve-Barita is playing as screwing is flying through me towards the portal. You fly through the portal. That's a really good one, too. You flip through the portal, and you all watch your friend disappear into the oven. That is the... That's actually my turn.
Starting point is 01:52:20 The poet is going to take one step forward. Towards Ket or towards... Towards Tyshen. And just stand there looking... Not terrible. for his undead face being what it is, whisperfang is dire. That is going to be the conclusion of the poet's turn,
Starting point is 01:52:39 and now it is your turn, scrim. You fly out and forward. What would normally be a slide to a stop, what would normally be a fall. You've landed here once before, but you land on the rocks, and you realize that you've been cushioned somehow. You soften your blow,
Starting point is 01:52:56 and instead of flying forward towards this river of lava, You are instead surrounded by sweltering heat, surrounded by the nightmare lava flows, and the insane sky, which is crackling with lightning, and behind you hear the flapping of wings. What do you do? So I land, I must land, even though it's feather fall. I still do.
Starting point is 01:53:19 You land there safely though. You don't take any damage. Do I slide? Do I just sliding? Because of the feather fall, you are not sliding the additional 15 feet. You were there. I mean, shit.
Starting point is 01:53:31 I'm like, I'm like, fuck me. I don't want to be here. There's a fucking portal. I'm going back through. Derek. Yeah, okay. I'm being in you to you. Derek.
Starting point is 01:53:42 I've been waiting for some time, Richie. I've been waiting for some time, Richie. So I used 10. 10 of my movements. Yeah. Just real quick, look at. Well, that's what I got here. Double opportunity to text.
Starting point is 01:53:57 Yeah. I bring it on. 16 and a dirty 20. The 16 misses because I have 17 armor. I'll take the 20. Okay, that's going to be... You feel a claw, a heated claw, rake against your back, and you take...
Starting point is 01:54:16 Four flashing damage and two fire damage. Okay. I stumble out of the portal. Holy fuck, I shouldn't have to say that, but don't go in there. And then... His back is smoking.
Starting point is 01:54:31 Yeah, I'm just like... I have been constantly smoking this entire. Like, I've just been... I've been electrocuted a little on fire. One moment. One moment. I do just need to see if I can... Because I know that I have this thing,
Starting point is 01:54:46 but I think it costs a... I can get a Misty step. But I think it costs... It's a spell. Right. I think it costs a spell slot, which is gonna fuck me. And I don't want that to happen.
Starting point is 01:55:01 Unless it's some feature that I'm not aware of. Well, that's why I'm just triple checking before I do anything else. Okay, well, my concentration drops because I lose sight of him anyway. So I guess what I'm going to do is I've used 10 of my movement, 10, that's another 15 for 25, and then another 10 for 35. as I believe I don't lose my Hexblades curse. Correct. So I am going to cast Eldridge Blast using a cantrip to shoot two beams. I was perfect.
Starting point is 01:55:48 They'll be disadvantaged. Oh, is he fucking, right? Or he's sent up. He's prone. It's not being his turn. I don't think there's anything else that I can do. I don't think there's anything else that I can do. Because thematically, I thought he would be cowering and crawling like a dog.
Starting point is 01:56:02 I think that's fine. Fine. Alright. Yeah, that's, Jesus, Derek. Okay, first thing. He's, like, weeping now. He's in, he's in badger. Oh, good.
Starting point is 01:56:14 That's not gonna do it. First one's gonna miss. Actually, it was a three. That was a three. Plus nine is 12. Yeah. Do I dare? How much longer does this fight possibly go on?
Starting point is 01:56:30 Use it. Just fucking use it. You do. That's gotta be, yeah. That's a, that's a 18 to hit the first beam. Okay, and then the second one. I didn't remember I have that. Double 19s for fucking crit.
Starting point is 01:56:46 Hell yeah. Oh my God! Gotta give it out. Is this the first time that's happened? Yeah. Oh my God! So that's gonna be... Holy shit.
Starting point is 01:56:59 Everybody ever got scribble. It was at Woolock someplace. The first one's gonna be a two plus four, which is only gonna be six points of damage. because of the extra four from the Hexblades curse. Then the next one will be the crit. Come on.
Starting point is 01:57:20 Which is 13 points plus four, because you get to apply it each time, right? Yep, and we go. So 17 points for the second beam. As I hold up my left hand and this dark, brimstone-ish kind of energy leaps from my left palm, striking whisper fang. Die, you son of a bitch, die! That's gonna be my whole turn. How do you want to do this?
Starting point is 01:57:47 Oh! I, not only do I feel this connection because this portal is open. My blood has been siphoned over this portal. It's got to come from behind you. Oh, hell yeah. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:58:05 Oh, that's crazy. And as I summon forth these Eldred's blasts, you hear the baying of a howl. hound in the distance, but it's louder than usual. And I think to myself, I think to Jack. One more for the soul count. As I just think about his hunger and his need to feed, and I hope that this satisfies this entity from this other plane.
Starting point is 01:58:30 And also, I'll gain 15 hit points because he died under my highest plate. Oh, hell, yeah. Oh, my God. Yeah, and I hope that I'm close enough to see the light. his eyes. When you hit him, these Eldridge Blasts smash into, one hits the side of his face, the other one hits his chest. The whimpering and crying for his princess immediately stops, and he rolls just a few feet, limply turning, almost like someone rolling over in bed, but you see him go still and he just completely collapses. There's no more movement coming from
Starting point is 01:59:10 whispered thing, not a sound. As this happens, you shoot these beams forward and he crunches over in this way. You hear your ears almost all pop. You look over at the portal and you can watch as the magma methods just start to cross the threshold of the lower plane into the arcane study that you find yourself in, the portal vanishes.
Starting point is 01:59:36 A long nose, a few claws, part of a wing, all slide down and ooze lava onto the floor as the portal completely collapses, leaving the room no longer emanating with some amount of heat, but completely dormant once again. And that brings us to the top of the round. I hope wherever the fuck he is, it's worse than what was behind us.
Starting point is 02:00:07 One monster down, time for the last one, as I just charge towards his Frankenstein, And truly, Victor Frankenstein has been killed. Shupity. That will be a 18 to hit. Oops. And I am going to, I mean, I'm going to do this because I'm going to try to topple him,
Starting point is 02:00:30 so I may as well just roll. Oh, I got me my D-10. Shoot. That is six, 10, 10, 14, 14, 18, 21 points of bludgeoning damage. And he needs to make a Constitution saving throw. DC, I believe 15. Okay.
Starting point is 02:01:04 He fails, he gets to nine. He'll be not prone because I knocked this thing to make that out. You finally sweep him out from underneath him. He lands with a loud thunderous thud. I'm swinging in for my last. That'll be a natural 20, though. Yes. I am going to roll 46 plus 2D10.
Starting point is 02:01:34 Is it brutal critical? Do you have that yet? I don't think I have brutal critical yet. I think you get it at 10. I believe that that was 2014. If that's still true, then yes, you should have it. It could be different. I have brutal strike.
Starting point is 02:01:49 Maybe they are rid of it. I don't think brutal critical is a thing anymore. They may have gotten rid of it. That is going to be 12 plus, 12 plus six. Sorry, 12, that's 18, 18, 24, 28, 28, 38, 32, 32, and then 36 points of bludging damage. 36 points of bloodline damage. As you bring the anchor down, you're able to strike into the side of the horribly resurrected poet. His body having been reformed by Whisper Fang's arcane magic,
Starting point is 02:02:36 he falls to the ground with a loud thud, and you all watch as he brings the hammer down. Crunch and his head splattered like a pumpkin. The body goes still, and the poet is no more. I would split it. Barm wasn't thinking about this, but I would knock him down, and I'd flip the anchor over, and right where we saw his head split down in life, or death, and then the ogres had severed it,
Starting point is 02:03:03 and it's gonna be, it's gonna split. Oh, shit. Yeah, a little more down. A little more down. Sorry about that. Sorry about that. I'm just too into it. I'm too into it.
Starting point is 02:03:17 Nope, down. Yep. Yep. Now, straighten it up a little bit. Light it up. There we got, you got right? No, it's still cock-eyed. Maybe, anyway, that's fine.
Starting point is 02:03:32 That's good enough for that. It's good enough for the rest of the- Describe your kill. And it smashes down, splitting his skull into, and, uh... Fuck yeah. We'll also say that you added your cyanic bolstering to that damage if you wanted to. Oh yeah, the barnacles go in and just like...
Starting point is 02:03:50 Sea critters, sea lies. The body goes completely still. And you all... All you hear is that... the sound of the wind crashing through, spilling out through the open windows on the side. Parchment and other instruments are still being blown around. Snow is covering one side. The Hexacher armament still sits making its endless turn as it rotates from one side,
Starting point is 02:04:22 one face to the other. Tishen, you are floating up there. These two bodies, I'll let your feet. The threat appears to, for now, be over. We did it. All right, we did it. Oh, oh, oh. I immediately turn around and I say, All right, kidd, you still with us, you all right?
Starting point is 02:04:45 And I look around the sanctum to see if I see Daisy. I want to make your roll for it. You know Daisy. You look under tables, you look all around, and she doesn't seem to be hiding. It's plainly obvious she's not in this room. Daisy, where? Where she go? Did you see where the king went?
Starting point is 02:05:03 She's not here? Oh, he told her to hide behind something. Come on, out of your lady. Did I see her fly out the window? A low DC perception check during the heat of that combat. I think that makes sense. I think of everyone that might have seen her
Starting point is 02:05:19 probably would have been me. I would agree. But I rolled the two. So it's... Oh, maybe? I mean, 11. That's probably too low. I'm just shouting her name then and kind of walking around the sanctum. I'm trying to remember who else was in the space at the time.
Starting point is 02:05:38 And I don't think that we can have anyone else make a perception check. Daisy seems to be gone. Fuck, fuck. I mean, I told her to book it, two of things went south. Did she get, well, you were in the door? Did she go through the portal? She couldn't have gotten past, too. I didn't see it, but I-
Starting point is 02:05:56 Oh, you didn't see her when I was there. I was a little distracted. Perhaps she ran. Shit. Did the pole get her? Oh. Thank you, chat. Oh.
Starting point is 02:06:15 She vents through the window. She vents... She was... During the... when the great gust happened? She was pushed out through the second window there. What? You race forward and it is white-out blizzard. You can't see farther than 15 feet in any direction.
Starting point is 02:06:36 You know that you are very high up. But looking down and pushing yourself over the sill looking down, you don't see anyone hanging from a sill or from one of the slippery exterior rocks of this tower. No, no, no, no, no, no, she's... I will... No! I will... Maybe she grabbed down to something.
Starting point is 02:06:58 I am going to, uh... Once again, sloop out my crab legs, and I will try to, uh... I'm gonna be like, look, I will have been pushing around in, uh, whisper fangs gore to make sure that he's dead. Uh... Make a medicine. Check. Oh, yeah. Medicine, you say? That's a ten. That's a ten. You push
Starting point is 02:07:21 into Whisper Fang's body and you see a flicker of movement on his face as he turns and looking at you with almost half of his jaw removed. He's clutching his chest and he
Starting point is 02:07:39 looks up with one eye. My princess. I am defeated. As you turn to in his body, you realize that he is hanging on by a thin thread still barely alive. Holy shit. I was expecting that. I'm getting ready to go, but I'm quickly checking and I am completely suddenly I don't, I'm not even thinking about what's going on. He's still alive. I am going to place my anchor to, I'm going to have my anchor smash down onto. his one hand, and I'm going to use my boot to my foot to smash down on his other hand, presuming that he was able to cast spells.
Starting point is 02:08:25 Actually, and then one foot's going, the other foot's going to go on a throat. He puts his hand back. You're able to hold him down easily. He's completely limp. He can't even, you don't even feel the push. As strong as you are, you might be able to not feel it from someone weaker than you, right? But you get the sense that he can't even muster the strength
Starting point is 02:08:47 to try to resist. He's still alive. I will immediately walk up to him, snapping out of the chanting. This monolith is going to be here for an hour, and so if everyone wants to freshen up on headpoints, feel free. This monolith continues to push and wave out to the power
Starting point is 02:09:04 to try at. It's not a deal. Oh, oh. Is there a cap? If you do it again, it would just be like, oh, it replaces. The idea is you can be a candy roll so you've got a match.
Starting point is 02:09:17 max roll and just keep it. So I'll just add the max roll, I think, because we take a lot of it. It's up to, yeah, oh, maybe not. Let me flip a coin. It's every six seconds. Yeah, I got a natural 19. You all are able to max that temp to that
Starting point is 02:09:28 10.24 H.B. Because you are benefiting from the magic of your near spell. And that will last, how long? The monolith lasts for an hour, but temp H.P. H.P. H.P. H.P. H.L. Yes. I was asking about the monolith. So if we've got an hour for it to just continue to do a It's just hanging there and it's sitting there and it's... It's gotten quiet because we're not in danger, right?
Starting point is 02:09:51 But it's just sort of emanating this light. Casting over us and trying to, you know, guide our way maybe. For, especially within the light of these ruins, you are able to max out your 10-page space. Barnabas, finish it. We can't risk him opening the portal. I'll check for Daisy. No.
Starting point is 02:10:10 My print says... Keep him alive. I will approach. You fly out and fly out and fly. I'm going to young lady. We're gonna deal with this. I trust you. All, as they begin to approach Whisper Fang,
Starting point is 02:10:26 all fly out of the closest window that's shattered and open. And presuming I don't get fucking whipped around in a crazy swirl of intense wind. It's cold and intense, but once you test the waters, you get five, ten feet out, you feel that you are able to swim through this. Even though it's very, very, very, very limited visibility. You stay within the 15 feet of the tower wall,
Starting point is 02:10:53 you'd be able to swim down and follow the path. Okay, I'm gonna do my best to navigate around, like, sweep up the outer edge. Going too far out, you'd be completely lost. You wouldn't know which way is up. I just wanna sweep the outer facade of the tower, and then if I think I can fly down without freezing to death or getting too far away
Starting point is 02:11:13 or getting totally fucked, I'll fly down and see if I can see any evidence of her. And I don't, we can do the whisper fang thing. I will. Someone else can't go for a second. You have climate appropriate clothes, and this is about as intensive storms get. So you do think that traveling 200 feet down
Starting point is 02:11:33 and then back up might trigger Constitution saving for that would come with some damage. But that is the risk that you have to confront if you are going to pursue Daisy, who almost certainly flew through the window, Perkett's rule. word. And ICE is super effective against dragons. Oh no!
Starting point is 02:11:50 That's right. That's true. You are completely false. I will spend as much time as I think I can safely with still the ability to return to my allies while looking for Daisy, but I'm not going to risk my life.
Starting point is 02:12:07 Let me quickly pull up my rules here. It's very wise. I just need to... And however far you think I can get in that time and whatever I would be able to discern. with that distance. Let me find... I did not think I was going to need them.
Starting point is 02:12:23 Just one moment. Good grease. Cetus Lepidus. It's been a while. Gosh. Oh, like visibility rules? No, temperature bans. Here's how it'll work.
Starting point is 02:12:39 You will make a Constitution saving throw. That Constitution saving throw is 20. You will take 2D6 cold damage for each investigation check that you make or want to make. and you can return it anytime. Oh, my God. Oh, that's great fucking grueling.
Starting point is 02:12:55 Holy shit, that's badass. Wait, so I roll a con save? Yes. So for this initial dip, make an investigation and a comm save. All right, I'll roll investigation. 12. Roll my con save. Uh-oh.
Starting point is 02:13:15 10. Okay. You are going to take, as you are flying through, you take three cold damage. as the winds batter you around. You are, the visibility is low, but you're able to get to the bottom of the tower very roll my concentration on flight. Oh, ho.
Starting point is 02:13:36 I bored you. Oh my god. Oh, we should twist this. I have to beat a tent. I kind of don't want to switch it. To be honest with you. You're sick fuck. Add like a two.
Starting point is 02:13:49 How many do we have left? We have nine left. We have nine left, yeah. Let's throw three at it. All throw three. All throw three. I don't have to beat. If I just take three damage?
Starting point is 02:13:58 It doesn't have to be? Just a 10? No, just you have to get 10 or higher. A 10 or higher. Is it any damage you just have to get 10 or higher? If we took three, only a natural one will fail. Because he needs a two or higher if it's, if we give him a three. I can't guarantee it.
Starting point is 02:14:10 I'm gonna see what if I rule one? I fail. No, no, no. No, really? There's no critical fail. There's no critical. All right, four. Four.
Starting point is 02:14:19 I'll use four. It's guaranteed. It's guaranteed. We're good. That's so funny. Thank you for the two. I had a feeling. I was like, now's not the time.
Starting point is 02:14:28 I don't believe in you, man. You take a minute to soar around. You're staying close to the edge of the tower. The cold is biting. It is brutal. It is severe. And you start to notice that there is, in fact, a line in the snow that comes down from the tower. But it leads a little farther out than you would expect.
Starting point is 02:14:53 You would have to follow this and continue to investigate if you wanted to. We need a line? So the way that the tower comes to reaches the bottom of the stone that it has been built on, so much accumulation of the snow has happened that it's almost created this like curve. This like a little bit of a ramp. And so as you're investigating, you do not find Daisy, but you do notice that there is what appears to be an impact. Like a slide. Oh, fuck.
Starting point is 02:15:21 And it leads away from the tower. Okay, okay, okay. I go back. She didn't instantly die. You fly back. I fly back up. You fly back and you're able to pull yourself back into the, not warmth, but the shelter
Starting point is 02:15:35 that the top of the Wizards Tower represents. Before you do that, however, the rest of you remain with the alive, barely hanging on to the edge of life. Whisper Fang. Do you wish to live? Of course I wish to live. You have one chance.
Starting point is 02:15:57 And be brief, I do not wish to negotiate. We're not there going to let him live. You'll get a clean death. It won't be a long time dying, screaming the whole time. That's the best you can fucking hope for. Princess, I'm telling him to go fuck himself. I'm telling you to fuck yourself, Bonobos. Fuck all of you.
Starting point is 02:16:21 He will open a portal to the Faywild. Now or die? I don't. I would need to, I would need to. The seeds, they're with her, her highness, the princess. I can't do it from here. Use this, and I hand him the honeypot, which I believe I still over my purse.
Starting point is 02:16:41 You do. And he looks at it and he goes, This, this, this, this, trinket, it's dormant. It doesn't have the magical power that we needed in order to open the, the portal to another world, to, to do, the, the fay wild. Where is she? The princess? You fool!
Starting point is 02:17:08 Don't play around with us! I'm gonna crush a little bit longer. If I actually kill me. Yes, so be it. Fuck him. You can see Painrak through his body, and he looks at you, and he goes, She is with the princess now. She is back and she's so close to victory.
Starting point is 02:17:32 Are they on the favorite? plain. No. Princess, destroy them. Destroy them when you see them. Ha, princess, I will be with you soon. I can feel my life draining from me. I'll give you or near a subtle nod to Barnabose as I take a step back. You're saying Queenie still lives. She is very important. She cannot be killed right away. is needed so that the princess can ascend. Ascending what?
Starting point is 02:18:17 How do we stop her? So she can break her pond so that she can rule Jakar and she can be who she is meant to be. It will be beautiful. I only regret that I will not
Starting point is 02:18:33 see the day, my princess. Oh, I spot you as much time. as I could. I am sorry. As soon as he says, botchious enough time. All right. You don't even deserve the locker
Starting point is 02:18:49 to the worst of the hails with you. And I just, very quickly, take my anchor off of his hand and just smash the skull in. You do. There's a moment, a brief flash, where you are hit with the memory of having done this.
Starting point is 02:19:08 many times before, but the first time was of course the most powerful and you see your father's face before Whisper Fang shatters into nothingness. Whispers Fang expires and he goes limp and his hand opens up
Starting point is 02:19:24 and you see within his hand a stone with a few glowing ruins on it. And you hear a voice. Thank you, Whisper Fang. The voice of the Princess of Rav. You fought well. I am disappointed
Starting point is 02:19:41 that you did not kill them. But we can't all be perfect. Gentlemen, I think we need to have a talk, don't you? The voice emanates from this sending stone and you all look at each other. Tichen, you pull through the window
