Starting point is 00:00:27 our kick-ass, DM, Dan Telfer. Welcome to Nerd Poker. Hey, everybody. It's Brian Possein. You're listening to Nerd Poker. I crack myself up because right before we started, I said, let's do this. Like,
Starting point is 00:00:46 I'm about to do something cool. Let's do this. We're about to rob the bank with our skateboards. So cool. We're in a police academy movie. Those are my friends. Three of two have spoken, one laughed. Laughing was playing Capatula, Blaine.

Starting point is 00:01:46 So we should thank some people before we get murdered by Dan. Try to AM murdering you. A couple of you are in your death saving throws, and let's thank a few of our listeners who are funding the murder.

Starting point is 00:02:58 Yeah. Thank you, Plain. My room is really hot, so I had to walk across the room and make the air conditioner more available. And now it's time to talk about what happened on Nerd Poker. A couple of our friends have been beat to shit by the Kraken. All of them tore into the Litch Queen and she is now a bunch of floating bones in the water. The water is raising quickly. Soon they might see a ceiling.
Starting point is 00:03:30 I believe it was Siam Spade who saw in the distance. From a distance. The ceiling of this chamber quickly approaching as it fills with water. It came down a little shoot, a little hole in the ground. And soon they might be able to reach it. But in the meantime, the Leviathan possessed by the spirit of Caius, the cosmic thing, is coming to slap him around. We now take you to the death saving tour is already in progress.
Starting point is 00:03:57 So Brian, you're at the top of the turn order. I believe this is just your first one, and you were flying? And then I believe this would mean that you kind of went splush a little bit in the water. That sounded right? Yeah, I guess. You love when I asked you about your death. Yeah, it's my favorite thing to talk about I don't know, I can tell
Starting point is 00:04:17 Did I just fall off of the turn order? Successful I had to remake the whole turn order So I apologize if you're not in there I have the screenshot of where you are So give me a second I missed it, yeah I succeeded, sorry
Starting point is 00:04:29 Oh, really want to kill you All right, that's great Is it? Next to it Hmm? Is it? Yeah, I love being sassed All right, so
Starting point is 00:04:45 I'm actually flucking around, clearly. I snored it. That's how you know. The cracking is going to already got in his stomach your friend
Starting point is 00:05:06 glugged. Yeah. It was grappled and alive in his stomach, taking a lot of digestive damage. Things are not looking great for him. Don't like it. He is going to move in. And Ken, you said you're down too?
Starting point is 00:05:22 Yeah. All right, so he's going to go. DTF. And Little Peepers, right? Gross. Yeah, Little Peepers is also down. He's coming in for Chris. Little Peepers, you got so much. Everybody's down, down, down.
Starting point is 00:05:44 Actually, we would not come in. What am I doing? It's too late. He already did it. it. But he is going to come in and hit a lightning strike and Blaine your way off to the side.
Starting point is 00:06:01 So he is going to try to strike you a deck saving throw. When is this a docking song? Lightning strike? Yeah. A dexterity saving throw, you say. Yes, and you may want to look at your uncanny dodge type options.
Starting point is 00:06:23 Okay. Uh, there we go. You got this, Blaine. All right. Uh, 18 plus 8, 26. That is a save. Nice. All right, so that's going to miss you and smack the water and no one is near you.
Starting point is 00:06:46 So that is going to just sort of crackle around and the water around it arching off of the surface. Uh, you are flying up high. So it's difficult for him to hit you. So I am ruling that you are not taking half damage if you make the saving throw. Because I feel like the half damage you take would be the lightning sort of exploding off of the ground. Or in this case, if you were like in the water. It would also hurt, you know, a certain amount if you made the deck save. But you're flying.
Starting point is 00:07:20 So. Okay. Am I? Or wait, you're a catfish. You're swimming. I can't remember. Yeah. I think he catfish.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Okay, well, then I am going to give you half damage because you're not deep, right? You're like semi near the surface? Yeah, I'm just, yeah, I'm trying to... Oh, you know what? Shit. Yeah, I mean, he wouldn't... I'm going to just call it he's going to try to hit you and miss
Starting point is 00:07:47 because he shouldn't even be able to see you unless he submerges and I didn't call that he is. So I'm just going to say he did the equivalent of what your dungeon master did is he sort of panicked. and tried to hit you with a lightning bolt. But it's just going to be like a blind miss because you wouldn't know where you are even. So that would strike like, you know, you made the saving throws. So I'll say he just is like several, several feet off any damage.
Starting point is 00:08:16 Okay. And then we'll take it to you. Blame. Okay. Well, I'm going to, can I see where everybody is heading into this, the ceiling? here? Well, this is what's tricky.
Starting point is 00:08:34 Right now, you and Chris are the only ones who are up, so no one's really heading there. Everyone's in some deep shit. And so the water is heading in that direction
Starting point is 00:08:44 and that is sort of floating you in that direction, but the way I first interpreted what you said, which is people are making active movements to the whole knuck light. Right now,
Starting point is 00:08:56 you had just barely scoped how high it was about 100 feet up. It would probably be about 60 feet at this point. Oh, really? Okay. Yeah, so it's coming up quick. How long until it is, sorry, I'm looking something up here. How long until it is going to be 30 feet?
Starting point is 00:09:26 Make an inside check, please. 16 plus 10, 26. about two turns Okay, I'm going to just try to stay out of range and out of sight until this thing is 30 feet away from me Okay, are you going to do anything about the fact that more than half the party is down? What's, is there a tentacle that's attacking people that I can see that's in range?
Starting point is 00:09:58 I mean, there are currently two tentacles left They have knocked out Brian and Ken, and it has swallowed glug. Okay. I'm going to... Is the left tentacle here? Is that the one that's attacking Ken and Brian? It's the one that just basically quit Brian on the brink of death, yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:22 That left tentacle is the one that hangs a little bit lower, right? Mine are both long. Does your tentacle hang low? Does it a wobble to a frog? Can you try it to knock? Can you try it or broke? I think left tentacle is the French pronunciation. They're British.
Starting point is 00:10:36 It's usually lieutenantal. I'm going to... When my grandfather would fart, he'd done lieutenant, who? I'm going to hit that tentacle with a... Okay. With a fireball. Prove it. Roll to...
Starting point is 00:11:00 It's a spell touch with. 19 plus 6. 25. That's a hit. I do 2D10. 2D10. Where's my own? 10.
Starting point is 00:11:22 13 points of tenticular damage. How would you like to see the tentacle die? I'd like to see it do the thing where it just, Tex-Avery style turns into a curly, burned matchhead. and then and then kind of like just sprinkles into the water just disintegrates
Starting point is 00:11:43 yeah love it I should have told you both these tentacles are pretty fucked up I was getting pretty graphic last session about how they were like
Starting point is 00:11:52 split open and ripped but yeah just the one tentacle left is there anything else you'd like to do with your turn again your friends are dying I feel like I'm speaking for listeners
Starting point is 00:12:03 when I say uh oh uh oh uh oh uh oh Yeah, I got, I've got nothing that I could do. Well, you might want, you and Chris both might want to take a look at whether you have health potions. I do have health, I do have health potions. I can head for, I can start swimming towards Brian. Yeah, we've got ways we can help them, I'm sure.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Mm-hmm. Yeah, I'll start. I'm trying to encourage you to do so. So how much movement do you have in the water? because you're only 60 feet away. I can do 60 with my speed. Nice. Well, listen, this is some serious improv pimping,
Starting point is 00:12:45 but do you want to maybe swim over there and use your bonus action to drop some health in his mouse? Yes, I would. All right. I shall move your token. Yes, and roll the health. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:58 And then... Sorry, I'm looking at the... I can just hear Eternim Dave being like, Blaine! Give him a potion. He lets you use bonus actions. Except in an Irish accent. Ken, what does that sound like?
Starting point is 00:13:21 Nine points. He was trying to give you something to do. Yeah, I mean, you're an actor. I forgot what he said. Give him a potion. Brian, did you get an Irish accent? Botion. Brian, did you get those hit points?
Starting point is 00:13:36 I don't know. No, where does it? No. No, tell him, though. How do I do that with the death? saving worlds. They'll be negated if you just go into your
Starting point is 00:13:50 hit points and make them nine instead of I think if you add hit points. Yeah. How do I do that? Thanks, Dan. If you click the death saves and then it'll say current, put nine. Oh, okay. Gotcha. Yeah, there we go.
Starting point is 00:14:15 That did it. Excellent. Wow, man. Thanks, mine. Appreciate it. Chris, you're up. Here to help. Twudin is going to
Starting point is 00:14:27 Strem's Lute and cast I'm going to cast Healing Word at fifth level. So everybody within 60 feet, which I think is everybody, gets 16 hit points.
Starting point is 00:14:48 Jesus Christ. How many feet? Within 60 feet. So that should be everybody. I think that is everybody. Blaine just swam into range. And how many hit points? 16.
Starting point is 00:15:00 Wow. Can it go through? Is it visible or is it in range? I'm wondering if you gave glute 16 hit points inside the 15. Oh, sorry, 16, yeah. Healing word. A creature of your choice that you can see. But I can't see him.
Starting point is 00:15:21 Ah. Well, you're looking at the, you're looking at the, you're looking at the creature that ate him and you know he's in there. Oh, well, yeah, I guess it's up to Dan. But I definitely want to bring everybody up. I'll tell you what,
Starting point is 00:15:37 because they have that thing they call the rule of cool, why don't you roll a medicine check? And we'll see if you can use the spell to guesstimate the biology of this thing and target something inside them since you can see the physical space.
Starting point is 00:15:53 Seven! That'll be a number. No. Well, I smile at my friends. Big thumbs up. All right, Ken, I believe it's time through death saving throw. It wasn't I healed? Everybody has 16 hit points.
Starting point is 00:16:11 Oh, that's right. You're fine. Everything's fine. I don't know. Little Peepers. I got so many notes out of them. Little Peepers is up. Ryan's up. Ken's up.
Starting point is 00:16:25 I'm up. Yeah, house is up. Uh, let's see, what can I do here? I will. I will cast a spell of... Is there anything you can do with all your sorcerer stuff, Ken? I feel like you've got like... Yeah, sort of sorcerer moves or points.
Starting point is 00:16:46 I don't know what that is. I can cast emulation. Oh, shit, bra. Brum. I thought they're open for a lemon creation. I will cast immolation. That's a saving throw. Whichon?
Starting point is 00:17:04 Whichon is a... Dexon. Dexon. Is a real metal band. It so is Malib creation. Oh, we know. Do you see that, 10 in the World Trade? Oops.
Starting point is 00:17:17 So that's 8D6 points of... Holy shit. He botched it, by the way. Oh, nice. So that's 31 points of damage. Holy shit. So do you just see what... What is...
Starting point is 00:17:30 the flame look like, Ken? Oh, wait a minute. What? Okay. No, nothing. I was just seeing. I think there's... I'll tell you what.
Starting point is 00:17:43 This is... Additional damage. I feel like... Yeah, I feel like there not only is additional damage, but if it's a botch on a saving throw on a spell attack, I should let you double the die damage as if it were a crit. Because it is like a reverse grit. then 62
Starting point is 00:18:01 I would do all the time if I like it nice 62 and it comes out from both of my hands swirls around him and wraps around his neck and sort of
Starting point is 00:18:12 garots in fire and you just catch all the dry scales so it rips up the cracks in his neck and yeah cracks it smells like salmon on a George Foreman grill
Starting point is 00:18:27 anything else for you Jeremy. Get some lemon juice. Ken, do you like ripple the whatever fish spine skull thing you're wearing? Yes. You know what I mean? Like with the satisfied
Starting point is 00:18:41 like, like... Like... Oh! Yes. Say ripple, Ken. Your fire magic. So cool. All right. And I believe it is now time
Starting point is 00:18:57 for glued to maybe attack, probably not. I think he's about to take some acid damage. Yep. The good news is he's not going to be dead, dead, but he is unconscious again. I shouldn't have brought him back. I'm sorry, Glove. No, he made all his death saves, and so he came back because he made his death saves, so he's just sort of flopping around.
Starting point is 00:19:30 Yeah, like, it's so... How much damage do you take from the acid? Holy shit. 22 points. Sounds like Duffy in my town. I took some massive damage at Legerland lunch, man. Wow. What was I thinking? Little Peepers is backed up,
Starting point is 00:19:52 and he is going to swim over to the tentacle and start slashing slashing. Tentacles. Why did it have to be tentacles? Exactly. Exactly. I just watched the first, too, because I went on the ride the other day in Disney, and then I usually, when I go to Disney and I come home and watch the Indiana, the first Raiders and Temple.
Starting point is 00:20:23 The last game was really great, too. I loved it. Yeah, I didn't finish it, but I really liked what I played a bit. Yeah. Well, the opening for sure. Little Peepers misses with his short sword and then comes back around with his dagger and just slices this thing in half. Nice.
Starting point is 00:20:42 Cut us right through it, and it flops into the water with a sploosh. And he goes, oh, well, that red, there we go. And he is going to be done with his turn as he climbs onto the rubble near that tentacle. Proofy. Back up at the old top of that turn order is Brian Possein of Brian Possein's nerd poker. You're up. Well, Jopry is. happened to be alive, but is
Starting point is 00:21:11 completely clueless as to what he should be doing. Your joint sweat, Joffrey. Who am I looking at? Who am I fighting? What am I doing? I'll point at the giant monster in front of us, the Leviathan.
Starting point is 00:21:28 Yeah, it was a big old monster. You know that. Fireball. All right, right? Roll the firebolt, please. Fireball. Nope, nope. nine. Nine.
Starting point is 00:21:45 No hit. Nope. Trade knots. Do I get more than one or? I forget. Oh, no. It attacks for action one. Got it.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Yep. Trade tool. Yep. Unless you got bonus action stuff you want to do. Nope. Says it right there. Do you want to? I'll shut the fuck up.
Starting point is 00:22:06 Oh. Wow. Very well. Yeah. Next is the Cracken. He. The Crack. The Crack.
Starting point is 00:22:14 All of his tentacles cut off. He starts shrieking. And you see this jet of toxic ink explode out from the science. I keep calling him a Kragon because that's what the basic stats are that I modified on D&DBON, but he is
Starting point is 00:22:36 technically Lori calling his vizant. Sorry if it's confusing. Here comes the Constitution saving throw from everyone in a 15-foot range. So that's going to be... That's me for sure. I think just you, because Chris is on some rubble. Chris is like on...
Starting point is 00:22:52 Oh, I should have moved away. Ken, don't forget, you still have... You and Brian still have Bartick inspiration. You get to use it until it actually... You keep it until it actually... And that's an 8? A D-8. You can add a D-8 to an attack roll,
Starting point is 00:23:05 a saving throw, or an available. Okay. Okay. That wasn't a help with that last roll. So what am I, I'm sorry, I'm rolling a Dex? Yes. Constitution, I'm sorry, Constitution. What is my character?
Starting point is 00:23:20 I'm sorry. Your character is in a game called Dungeons and Dragons. Oh, all right. Tony Shalubb, the Darkness. That is a... Thank you. 16. And that's with the Bartik Inspiration?
Starting point is 00:23:33 No. Where is that not enough? Let me add some Bartac Inspiration to that. Let's put some more. on there, and that is the 8. It's another 4. 20. Spacoli.
Starting point is 00:23:56 Yeah, yeah, yeah, man. All right. Well, the toxic ink dissipates around you. You manage to bob in the very surface of the water back and forth as the wisps of it curl, quite nearly gripping into your flesh and melting it off. But no, you rolled a 20 with the balladick.
Starting point is 00:24:16 Good job. We're all proud of you. Why am I doing that place up next to his plane? Is that the end of his turn? Yeah. Then I get to roll of 46. What? 13 points of damage for my immolation or what?
Starting point is 00:24:35 Oh, is your emulation like an ongoing thing, like, like moonbeam? Oh, cool. The fire rips across his neck again, like a gerot. and his head just rocks back and forth. You're fucking him up. Fucking him up, boys. Starting to add up to a lot of hit points. I'm going to fuck that guy up real good.
Starting point is 00:24:55 It is Blaine Capatch's turn of Blame Capuch's Siam Spade Poker. I'm going to, you know what, I haven't used witch bolt. I'm going to witch bolt in. Oh. Oh, ho. That's that witch bolt open for Immolation.
Starting point is 00:25:13 Which fault was that? Good bits, gibits. That is, uh, ranged attack. Yes. And then 1D12 lightning damage and uh takes a 1D12 for the duration that I, uh, automatically keep it trained on. Okay. Um, but, uh, hang on a second. Oh, you know, it's only 30 feet. Am I 30 feet from him?
Starting point is 00:25:47 Yeah, I'm 30 feet from now. You can get away from 30 feet if you're not. Yeah, you're like, write at like I want to say 25. Let me bust the ruler out. You're like, yeah, 25, 30 feet. Oh, you know what? He should have made a deck saving throw when I did my, after his turn cast. What is that for?
Starting point is 00:26:06 Because for the more damage. In addition to the emulation. Yeah, he makes a deck saving throw at the end for the, for the, for the constant spell that's going. Oh, shit. 16? Nope. So then we're good.
Starting point is 00:26:23 Okay. So I guess 17 plus 7. So 24 to hit. That's a hit. And then 1D12. That lighting damage. If you're new to D&D, 24 to hit is pretty fucking good.
Starting point is 00:26:38 It is. Excuse me. It's better than 20, which is the best you can get. 10 points. 10 points of lightning damage, and on each of your subsequent turns, you can use a bonus action to kind of like
Starting point is 00:26:52 rip the witch bolt back through him. Yeah, it stays on him and deals it automatically to him. Is Dan, is that creepo in melee with anybody? Guess who he's in melee with you and Ken? Okay. because of that, I think Blaine, if you check, you might be able to get to add
Starting point is 00:27:17 sneak attack damage because sneak attack is triggered by different conditions and one of them is if somebody, if your target is in melee. I think the notion... Which fault? I don't know. It's just a rogue thing. I can add damage if I hit with an attack
Starting point is 00:27:35 if I have advantage on the roll and the attack uses a finesse or ranged weapon. Oh, no, no. Sorry, my mistake. Yeah, it looks like you can't use spells. Alas. That'd be cool. It would. I think it would work if you had...
Starting point is 00:27:50 I think it would work if you were Nick Offerman. No. I think it would work if it was like a spiritual weapon kind of thing. Cool. All right. I don't know if you can... Yeah, it just can multi-class. Be curious how that would work if you were like a cleric with spiritual weapon
Starting point is 00:28:07 and you were erode with sneak attack. There must be some fucked up shit you can do. I don't multi-class that much, so I don't know. I don't know. play Dungeons and Dragons. So, okay. We, I think we're done with your turn and we are over at Chris, right?
Starting point is 00:28:27 All right. First thing, I have one last Bardic inspiration. I am going to give it to Brian's got one. Ken doesn't, Blaine, I haven't given one to Blaine yet. I will give Blaine Bartic inspiration.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Of course, of course. And then great at attacking. I want to, Dan, let me ask you a question about this so-called Leviathan. How would you describe this thing in terms of like, is it undead? Ooh, I'm going to let you choose. You can either do a nature check or an Arcana check. Interesting. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:15 One thing I know about the Leviathan is you get, you get, you get savings and low APR on any, oh, I'm sorry, it's Toyota fan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. For this, you have to keep your hand on it for longer than any of the other customers at the dealership. That's a... A hand-on-body reference. Ten on Arkton, great movie. Orange or Snickle?
Starting point is 00:29:39 You... With a snickle. With a 10, you can remember that this thing was sort of like hibernating, so there's a chance it's undead. All right, well, sorry, Spell. I'm going to... Dan, how does this thing look in terms of... Yeah, let me also properly answer your question, right?
Starting point is 00:30:04 Like, this guy is... He's very long like an eel, and the tentacles have been sort of ripped off at various lengths, so he kind of has this otherworldly look to him where most of his body is submerged and difficult to see, but there's blood all over the water. He's bleeding freely from eight different stumps
Starting point is 00:30:26 that are thrashing around in the water, and the immolate has ripped jagged scars that are freshly hewned across his neck. You feel like he is probably more than half shredded, but that he has started with a few hundred hit points. all right I'm going to bonus action Misty Step
Starting point is 00:30:49 so I for a moment this is because of my what is it my warlock What am I I'm some kind of weird Magic Man Sorcercercery
Starting point is 00:31:00 I can Misty step so my ears maybe get a little more pointy and I'm going to Misty step away from that fucking thing
Starting point is 00:31:08 onto a pile of rubble 30 feet back and then that's my bonus action. As my action, I'm going to cast Firebolt. Alrighty. That is a
Starting point is 00:31:25 20 to hit, not natural, but 20 to hit. Oh, that is a hitch. Does 2D10 fire damage for a total of 11 points of fire damage. I love to die that you use, Chris, on D&D Beyond. Oh, thanks, yeah, I don't know. I just changed it to something. They have a lot of cool stuff.
Starting point is 00:31:44 Yeah. I wish Baldr's Gate 3 had more. He started with 3 and then never added any. I'm like, you could have been doing some in-game purchase shit here that people would have blown so much money on. All right. So he gets racked with fire damage as this thing pops into him. And yeah, your passive insight is 16.
Starting point is 00:32:08 So he would be, he would look pretty fucked up, but not like one or two attacks is going to do it. Thank you. Yes. Ken, you're up, unless you have something else you want to throw in there, Chris. No, no, I'm good. I like your bonus action. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:32:23 I bonus action, uh, Misty Staff. Misty Staff, yes. I'm going to continue my emulation of him. Emboleation. Yeah. I bet you are. And that's a deck saving throw? Impleasure.
Starting point is 00:32:39 Yes, Daddy. It's going to be at 14. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm afraid that means he is. forked. And that is 24 points. Jesus, Ken, how many dice is that?
Starting point is 00:32:58 Fire. 6. Oh, 8. 8.6. The fire rips through his neck again, and that that's not even your action. Right? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:33:10 I guess it's not. So I'm asking you. No, I'm not telling you. It's a concentration spell, so I can I do something else? Don't you manipulate. I would say in the language of your spell how it works.
Starting point is 00:33:22 Like, you know, I think. Blaine's is definitely a bonus action for Witchful. I'm pretty sure it says it's, um, it's one of three things. It's action, bonus action, or automatic. Did you just see it, Chris?
Starting point is 00:33:36 It just says concentration at the end of each of its turns to target repeat. So you can do something else. That's maintaining. Yeah. Oh, shit. Well, then I'll cast something else. Why don't you? It just can't be another
Starting point is 00:33:49 concentration spell or will break the concentration on him. How about a chromatic orb? I bet it is. Is that a spell attack? Yeah? It's evocation. Well, yes.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Are you rolling a spell attack? Yes. And I'm going to do poison. Oh, boy. Poison. You know what? Maybe I'm not going to do poison if he's undead. I won't really do anything. Okay, then I will do more fire.
Starting point is 00:34:27 Fire's working out great so far. I think fire bad. Okay. So. Fire okay. And that is... Fire mid. No saving.
Starting point is 00:34:40 Frankinstein like a fire early stuff. That's 21 to hit. That's a hit. That's a hit. And then the damage is... 37 points Holy shit Ken!
Starting point is 00:34:56 Which damage is this? Fire, 78. Oh, that is bad. Wow. Yay. You're Tony shalubing it up in this joint. Get it, man. He's looking pretty shitty as this
Starting point is 00:35:12 just rips across him and an explosion of fire. Shalubi. The orb just hits him right in the like the under fin along his sternum. I like it. So his balls? Huh? No, he doesn't have sternum balls.
Starting point is 00:35:32 That was my old history professor. Stern balls? That's what I call breasts on women. Can you live alone, right? You've only seen two, right? Ken, you're married. Chest balls or sternum balls, you know. Oh, brother.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Front buns, fat pecks. Jesus Christ. Oh, no. I was going to say nip nuts. Anything else for your turn? Nippled nuts. No, I'm good. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:36:13 Niped nuts. Now I'm hungry. Things have been foul enough during my turn. Yeah, I don't feel great about where all this is going. Sorry, listeners. I did it again. All right, we get a success from our friend. After then, he's going to get two automatic fails
Starting point is 00:36:34 because he is being digested. Oops. That's going to bring us to Little Peepers. It's going to start firing arrows. You got so much. Flip. Little Peepers. Go, go, go, little peepers.
Starting point is 00:36:53 has I not going through it. Let me turn it again. Yeah, I think on my Roll 20 is being naughty. There it is. 19's a hit. Nice. Why are you doing this to me, D&Dia
Starting point is 00:37:22 B on slash Roll 20? I think that I fixed it. Okay. Jesus. 19 points. 28? Yeah, he'll land it right inside.
Starting point is 00:37:35 Yeah, 28 total damage of piercing. You're going to just hit right in the middle of your emulation flame, right where he is sensitive.
Starting point is 00:37:42 And, uh, just dark blood starts to spew out. Why doesn't everyone do an insight check? Sure. I mean,
Starting point is 00:37:52 if everybody did an insight check once a day. Yeah. We could prevent Leviathan cancer. 13. 21. 12.
Starting point is 00:38:11 12 insights. 15. All right. This is only going to be, Chris, and it's fitting as you were trying to figure this out earlier. The blood that splatters out is black and icarus. This thing is probably undead.
Starting point is 00:38:23 It looks like the blood is old and barely fluid and sort of splirts out with a mud-like quality. All right. Well, I'll just share that to everybody. I mean, like, I don't suppose anybody is going to be surprised. hear this thing's fucking undead. I don't know if that changes anything for anybody, but
Starting point is 00:38:41 okay. Gabagool, I guess. You're Italian. Brian, you're up. Okay. I am going to how far away is he? He's closest, right?
Starting point is 00:38:59 He's from you? Yeah, like... We're all chipping him. Okay, I'm going to short bow. I'd like to see you try, I mean, actually try by rolling your short boat to attack. And I just realized I probably should have paused at the end of the turn order because we were 45-ish minutes. Oh! Let's get this attack.
Starting point is 00:39:23 That's a hit, Brian. Cool. He's not flanked, is he? You know what? Nope, afraid not. But he's in melee with Ken still, right? He is. Does anyone call them chestnut?
Starting point is 00:39:41 Only when they're over and... open fire. What's Chris say? You get sneak attack damage. Oh, okay. So nine plus what's sneak attack? Uh, 5D6 for you, right? Blaine, it's the same as you. Is that right? Sneak attack is 5D6, yeah. So nine plus 25. What a way is so 34. He's not looking great. That took me a long time. And then I loved it. It's a living. Anything else, Brian?
Starting point is 00:40:30 Any bonus attacks? All right. We'll have to see how everyone else shreds, starting with the Leviathan on the next episode of Nerd Poker. Cool. Cool. Come subscribe to Darkest Windszy on YouTube, why don't you? Blaine, you got anything you wants to plug?
