I'm your dungeon master, Brian Murphy, joined by Jake Erwitz. Give him a hand. He can shit on command. Call her kill that.
Starting point is 00:01:54 Incredible. No fire, but shit, whatever you want it. Yeah. Emily Axford. Ready to suckle from the teeth of P. No. Call it. I'm going to be better, call. No. Coral. I'll be better. Oh, somehow even that tastes like truffles.
Starting point is 00:02:09 Suckle the truffle. And then of course, called a little tanner. Sobhuffo, hey, did you know I'm my own fucking dad. How's that for a frog fat? Jesus Christ. Alright. And on that, why don't we go ahead and do a little recap? Yes, please, Cap.
Starting point is 00:02:26 So last time you guys began by shitting on Glenn's note and sticking your boot in it in order to experience character growth. Yeah. What's wrong with that? Nothing, that's just normal. Did I sell out a beautiful moment that my character could have had to make a joke? Yeah, do I feel bad about it? No. Afterwards, you headed off to Shroomrotts' lair to witness the fallout of the green dragon's
Starting point is 00:02:53 poisoning of the fungal network. There, you saw an army of blue and green elves captured the small outpost of deep elves along with Elzor's uncle Schramrot. The deep dragon was brought in for questioning about a void elf attack on a nearby blue elf fort, one owned by the high prince Periwinkle. Elzor went off to find their mom to rescue Schramrot, while the rest of you continued towards the summit. Along the way you crossed through the high prince prince Perry Winkle's fort and saw it completely overgrown and full of skeletons. Is that what he would have sounded like if we had met him? Perry Winkle.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Yes, what could have been? You saw that Perry Winkle's fort resembled ruins more than a recent battleground. Suddenly you were attacked by a supernatural storm, but with the help of Foster who activated some kind of hidden power, you were able to barely escape. After gathering your breath, you noticed some injured voidelves nearby and succeeded in convincing them that you meant them no harm. Their leader, Bumpy, introduced himself, but quickly recognized Saul from an adventure they'd had 30 years ago. This greatly confused Saul, who is only 29. These are the prequel books.
Starting point is 00:04:11 Bumpy revealed that the Saul he met was running away from mothership and escaped to the Iron Deep Mountains. Saul was concerned that he could have had his memories wiped, but Kaliope positive that he could just be a clone. You resigned to seek out the original Saul, Saul's dad's self in the Iron Deep Mountains after setting everything right here. You went on to speak to Bumpy about Foster
Starting point is 00:04:36 and the Void Elves surmised that your duck companion was likely from the Beastlands. He went on to talk about Oberon and how the hunter likely saw this serpent situation as more of a game than some divine retribution. Bumpy agreed to take you to the Crick to learn more, but not until the opportunity presented itself. No one can get to the Crick without the help of a guide. These guides hide as animals in the forest and seek out others who need passage home. On that, Bumpy's allies left to seek nearby guides while he agreed to join
Starting point is 00:05:12 you on your mission to spy on the summit, the Void Elf transformed into a horse with a beautiful bowl cut and began carrying you, and that's where we are now, right? So we're a stride bumpy. You're a stride bumpy. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I'm happy to walk. Yeah, you see bumpies being kind of passive aggressive. I don't wanna, you know, be rude or anything. You know, create hospitality. No, no, I'm happy to walk. I just, I hope I can keep up. I take short strides. Okay, yeah, it's just that we're moving like five feet
Starting point is 00:05:55 per round right now. All right, and I think I slipped a horse disc. I'm so sorry. All right, fine. I'll curry cally on piggyback. Okay. Oh, that also works. Okay, so now I'm walking by. Alright fine, I'll curry cally on piggyback. Okay, oh that also works. Okay so now I'm walking by myself as a horse while a frog is carrying the second biggest
Starting point is 00:06:11 person and the biggest guy is walking really slow to prove a point. That's a pretty good summary. It's a much smoother ride so yeah so I'd rather ride on you. It doesn't sound smooth. So I'll just never get tired, just keeps hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey if somebody's gonna do deception checks wearing blue masks or something like that, let me know how you guys are proceeding because that will affect how the encounters happen. I think no matter what, I'm gonna put a blue elf mask back on. Okay, right.
Starting point is 00:06:53 Because we can always fall back on that. Great, you put the blue elf mask on, you see. I alert bumpy before I do it. I'm not sure. Yeah, I know I saw the mask on before. I have, you know, spatial awareness and recognition. I know that you're clappy. You see as soon as you put the mask on,
Starting point is 00:07:09 holy shit, the blue's found us! I get humans to care about that. It's your whole story. It's your whole story. I'm a real nasty bitch. Bumpy, now me, call their kill day, is going to dawn the mask. Okay, ready?
Starting point is 00:07:22 Yeah. Here I go. And it's on. Yeah, no, you look like a giant with a fucking elf mask around. I'm happy. I'm glad I'm wearing. I trust us. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:33 And listen, I usually have more spells to help in this situation, but I spent a bunch of mine when we got caught in the storm back there. So I need to rest before I can be too much help. But I'm going to roll along as you got that hut ready to go. Yeah, well, I actually don't. My staff is once a day Liam Mons tiny hut and we hooded up once.
Starting point is 00:07:54 All right, just the one hut. Fair enough, one hut. Yeah, I hope that's all right. It's fine. You guys aren't using me for my hut, are you? No, we would never. All right, cause I just got the one. The people do that?
Starting point is 00:08:05 Yeah, sometimes. When does it recharge? Ha ha ha ha ha. Taro. Like at midnight. Give me P-Nuckle. Ha ha ha ha ha. P-Nuckle, get over you baby.
Starting point is 00:08:16 P-Nuckle, choose. Ha ha ha ha. Bumpio roll a D4 to see how many first level spells he still has. OK. Bumpio still has three first level spells, but he's spent his second level. Okay, so you, what sort of concept do you have about what we are going into?
Starting point is 00:08:32 Yeah, so right now you guys are in a no man's land in between all of the blue dragon elf forts of the southern living wood. You need to cut through the territory of one more fort before you get to LavaRx's Lair, which is where the summit is. You still have a little bit of traveling to do, and you know that there are scouts about, so there still might be people to deal with between here and there. Right, yeah. So I was going to wear his mask on the top of his head so it can slide it down if he needs to, and he's just going to jump into the trees and start scouting head. Yeah, that sounds good.
Starting point is 00:09:05 Got it. Okay, Kale, I'm gonna have to put you down. I'm sorry. Okay. Like killed me. But I've been a good dog. I've been a really good dog. So that's way harsh. If anyone goes off by themselves, they're doing stealth checks by themselves and they will have to deal with a full round of whatever it is they run into before anyone else does.
Starting point is 00:09:25 But it also allows them to give people a heads up. So if Saul has awesome stealth, that's a good move. If he doesn't have awesome stealth, it's a bad move. Yeah. My stealth is really good. Mine's pretty good too. And I will be asking everyone's favorite question. Do I get swamp camouflage? Yes, you do. Awesome. Great. Then yeah, my stealth is very good. My stealth is very bad, so by all means. Okay. Okay, I mean, do we want to split up then?
Starting point is 00:09:51 So that's all is not entirely alone? If you want to come up to the tree tops with me, I mean, I've seen you move. You can get up there pretty easy. I scurry up like a horror movie child. I made misty step, but okay. Wow, that was actually very cumbersome. Yeah, Kelly's in like chain mail trying to climb up.
Starting point is 00:10:12 I speak with plants, but just to be like, the fuck tree. Joey, all of something. Use the branches. Why are you just hugging the tree and shimmy? Yeah, she's not using her legs at all just all arms. The front of me is chafed. tree and shimmy. Yeah, she's not using her legs at all just all arms. It's impressive. It's impressive. Haved. Haved. Bumpy, can you turn me into a horse? I'm ready. Yeah, is that a first level spell?
Starting point is 00:10:33 I can't. I can only turn myself into a horse. Call their shots as I. Can you turn him into a hut? I can't turn anybody into anything. Okay, I'll just pretend to be a blue elf leading a horse through the woods. Great. All right. Why don't we stay kind of far back because you look very suspicious. Saul looks super suspicious as well, but Saul can hide. Yeah, we'll have this shirt that gives me minus two to charisma. Sorry, we could lie to people. Excuse me, never mind. Okay, so Saul has jumped up into the trees
Starting point is 00:11:07 and if scouting up ahead is jumping from tree to tree, go ahead and give me perception checks. Is it natural one? Okay. 17. Good thing I came along. Kali, you're covering my eyes. And you tried to put me down.
Starting point is 00:11:25 I'm gonna say Saul, yeah, with a natural one, had he been by himself, he would have stumbled into this without even knowing that he had to do a stealth check. So Saul is kind of going so fast through the trees. And Kali, you're kind of having trouble keeping up for a little bit. But then you hear something up ahead, you grab Saul, you guys slow down, you stop in the trees, up ahead,
Starting point is 00:11:47 there's a little bit of a clearing, and you see that there are two blue Dragon Elf pikemen, the ones with these like pikes or halberts, these like long pole arms, and then there's also a blue wivern with an archer on it. You see this wivern, which is essentially a dragon that doesn't have like claws or legs, but has like a big stinger on their tail and wings. A pretty fierce animal and with an archer on the back, pretty tough stuff. So you guys need to get past this somehow
Starting point is 00:12:22 to be able to signal to Calder and Bumpy for them to be able to get by it without doing a stealth check. How far ahead would you say we are from Bumpy and Calder? I'll say about 100 feet, 100 feet. Wow, okay. That Wyvern looks pretty intimidating. Pretty gnarly weaver. Do we want to try to do some sort of deception I
Starting point is 00:12:47 think this might be a job for me I can rustle up in a brush and make some noise and then just like sprint and kind of loop around and catch along the other side I like that option okay all right first things first go ahead and give me a stealth check and you've got your swamp camouflage. Oh, baby, that's gonna be a 26, 26, sick. Okay, Saul is silent as he flies through the trees. And as you blow past these guys, you get a little bit closer and, oh yeah, can I like Eve's drop a little bit? Yeah, so you can hear what they're talking about.
Starting point is 00:13:19 You see they're lazily kind of walking along, doing some scouting, the Wyvern Rider is hovering through the trees while the Pikemen are marching at its sides. You see, one of the Pikemen looks up and just kind of casually goes, why are we out here trying to find Void elves? We know who actually killed Barry Winkle. And the Wyvern Rider goes, oh hush, we're all just playing our parts. Besides, it's never a bad idea to strike some fear into the voids.
Starting point is 00:13:48 No one should be able to appear and disappear as they do. Soul disappears, while this thing. Soul disappears, yeah. Soul, you are able to sneak around to the other side. First of all, I pull out my journal and I write down all this information so I don't forget about it. And then what I want to do is from a hiding point, I want to kind of whisper, but loud enough for them to hear. I think I saw the entrance to the creek this way. Sick, yeah, go ahead and give me a deception check with advantage.
Starting point is 00:14:19 Love it. Deception is not my strong suit. That's a six and a seven, my deception is not my strong suit. Ah, that's a six and a seven, my deception is. Okay, oh, plus two, so a nine. A nine. As you say that, the pipe men look up at each other, then look into the woods towards you. You see the Wyvern Rider perks up.
Starting point is 00:14:41 There's trickery of foot, Wyvern team engage. You see the Wyvern shoots off into the woods towards you, like in your direction with the pikeman following. It seems like with the failed deception check, the blue elves know your approximate location. Go ahead and give me a stealth check with disadvantage, which flattens out to just a regular role,
Starting point is 00:15:01 because of my swan camouflage. So they're all following me. They're all running towards me. They're coming towards you. You have an opportunity to jump into the woods and stuff. It's all good for your friends. But they might kill you. Oh, so you know, kind of a 50-50, huh?
Starting point is 00:15:18 Okay, so flat roll, that's gonna be a 12. My stealth is plus seven, so 19. Woo, great. Okay, the problem is you seven, so 19. Woo! Great! Okay, the problem is, is you're not going up against their passive perception now. They are looking for you, these guys are gonna all do rules. Okay, Boat Air.
Starting point is 00:15:33 First guy gets a three. Woo! Second guy gets a 12. So, these two pipe men Russian, they do not seem to see you. Arcane Archer is going to look. Arcane Archer has plus five to perception. So 14 or higher, sea salt. That's a 14.
Starting point is 00:15:52 Okay, all right. Everybody go ahead and roll an issue. Oh, no. Chris. Nice. Got a neck blown. I should have let you do that, Cali. I don't know what I was thinking.
Starting point is 00:16:01 I got a 14, because I got a net 10. That's gonna be a six for salt. Salt is a little spooked. At an initiative 26, that, Callie. I don't know what I was thinking. I got a 14, because I got a net 10. That's gonna be a six for Saul. Saul is a little spooked. At an initiative 26, that is Callie. Callie, you hear chaos as the Wyvern and the two Pikmin have found Saul in the woods. The Wyvern is faster than Saul, for sure. I think what I want to do,
Starting point is 00:16:19 because I don't really want to reveal my position. I want to sort of like confuse them. I'm gonna from far away give Seoul a little thumbs up, a little bardic inspiration. Okay. I'm like the director and the theater wings being like good black. Um, and then I want to remember those tech bombs we had? Yeah, old grenades. I want to hook a grenade at the Wyvern and the Wyvern Rider. Okay, they need to make dexterity saving throws, but I'm going to say throwing this grenade through the woods, you were kind of hiding back there, give me an athletics check.
Starting point is 00:16:56 Zessie Twente! Let's go! Yeah, Callie, you toss this fragmentation grenade that you looted off these dwarven mercenaries. It rockets through the trees. You follow exactly where this wiver was going. You see, yeah, you time it out to throw it a little bit ahead of them and it explodes in front of them. Go ahead and roll five D-sixes.
Starting point is 00:17:21 Ooh. 23. Oh, 23. They're gonna go ahead and make Dexaves real quick because they try to avoid the Schrapnel. Okay, so unfortunately they do pass, but they still are going to take half. You see as the grenade whizzes by their head,
Starting point is 00:17:37 the archer atop the wivern looks up and goes, wivern senses engage. And they attempt to do a sharp turn, but still get hit with a bunch of the shrapnel. Ah! God. I liked my new grenade. But after Callie, that is the Wyvern Writers turn.
Starting point is 00:17:56 He sort of writes his mount, gets the Wyvern flying right again, and continues pursuing Saul. As he does, he's going to pull out his arcane bow and take two shots. Oh, that's a 25 to hit. I'm gonna need to make those with disadvantage because of my cloak, my scarf. Ah, yes.
Starting point is 00:18:16 Yeah. Not one, Mrs. On the first attack. Oh, I hold up the mask and then arrow shatters it. Second attack is a 19 to hit, even with disadvantage. All right, that's gonna hit. Is going to, has magically enchanted arrows is going to use grasping arrow. You see lightning bolts burst from this arrow
Starting point is 00:18:37 and start to wrap around you, attempting to like, hold you in place magically. Gah, 16 damage. 16 damage, I'm going to try to deflect that. in place magically. 16 damage. 16 damage. I'm going to try to deflect that. Okay, okay. So I'm going to roll my D10. All right, so let's take away 14 damage from it,
Starting point is 00:18:54 but I can't fully deflect it. Okay, so you grab it, and then these lightning bolts explode from around it and wrap around you. And you feel your movement is constricted. And with that, the Wyvern is going to swoop down. You see this tail sparking with lightning goes and is going to take a swing at you. 24 to hit. That hits. Wait, with this vantage? No one has advantage you already hit
Starting point is 00:19:20 this turn. Good call. 11 piercing damage and then I need you to do a DC 15 constitution saving throw. As you feel like lightning going through you, like shocking you. Why burn? Okay. Yeah, I fail. Okay, you take an additional 24 lightning damage.
Starting point is 00:19:41 Oh, you guys, Sol is just getting fried. I think I might be down. Okay, I think this plan didn't work out. So, Saul goes down, Saul's down. Okay. Jesus. After Saul's turn, that's Bumpy's turn. Bumpy is a horse.
Starting point is 00:19:57 I owe Bumpy. All right, I'm kind of a horse right now because I don't think I can do much else. Charge. And this actually works out pretty well for you, Calder, because we said you were 100 feet back, and I was like, that's gonna kind of take Calder out of the fight if they go ahead.
Starting point is 00:20:11 But Bumpy, with a dash act, and he was gonna get 120 feet. Yeah, that's right up. That's Bumpy. So Saul, as you start to fade, as you feel the lightning kind of shock you, and your body start to seize up and you start to pass out. As your eyes begin to close, the last thing you see is a horse with a bowl cut,
Starting point is 00:20:30 with cauldron on its back, jump over a bush. What are you? Stand down. I'm the boss. After a bumpy stern, that's cauldron's turn. Oh, all right. I'll do a deception check and see if you believe that I'm the boss. Do I do I get any type of advantage since I'm a mountain combatant?
Starting point is 00:21:00 I guess a guy in a wiver? No, you got to ask. Yeah, you have to ask everybody. Yeah, I'll say that you ran straight towards Saul. You heard this hubbub. Yeah, you see this high-elf archer on top of the Wyvern, you can attack either one. They did not fly away. They very confidently thought that they kind of eliminated the threat here. Or at least they got hit in the back with a grenade. So I know some things out there, but I at least knocked this guy down.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Okay, I'm gonna try to hit these guys with an ice knife. So you pop out this horse with a bull cut jumps a bush. You just form a magical knife in your hand. With giant L throwing ice knives, what's your vibe? That's it. You throw it? First making a tackle roll against the guy. Alright, this ice knife, sails through the woods. Yes, that's a 24-hit.
Starting point is 00:21:46 24-hats? Okay, so he is going to take 10 damage, baby. Sick. That's kind of hard. He looks quite hurt. And then he makes a deck save. Okay. He fails. Alright, the Wyvern does. The Wyvern also does. Wyvern also fails. All right, and they're both gonna take an additional 10 damage. Sick. The archer looks incredibly hurt, and the Wyvern looks generally fine, kind of like, reals back a little bit and looks vicious, but you see that the archer looks nervous.
Starting point is 00:22:20 Retreat, retreat! You don't have time. I'm gonna use War Magic and take a melee attack against him. Oh! Sick! Ooh, baby, that's a 19 on the die. That's a 27. Nice.
Starting point is 00:22:34 Yeah, this dude totally would have flown away if he knew that there were more people here, but if I can call her and bump him in. 13 damage. 13 damage? This guy has 1 HP left. Ooh, damn it. Ah, ah, ah, ah, protect me! That's all I can do. 13 damage this guy has one HP left Protect me that's all I can do okay after callers turn that is the two pikemen the two pikemen are going to surround
Starting point is 00:22:57 Bumpy and called her oh shit man. It's okay. It's okay horse That horse just speak whoa bumpy 15 hit call their misses. 8 hit, call their misses. Two swings from the one pike man, two swings from the other. 18 hit. Doesn't do it. Doesn't do it. OK.
Starting point is 00:23:13 Another 18 hit. These two pike men surround you. Bumpy is bumping up and down. Calder, you are using your sword and blocking. Speaking of, I think I'll use my reaction and repost one of those pikemen. Ooh, ooh, I attack them, but that is only a three. So, almas.
Starting point is 00:23:30 So you've made some. For a second, you look like you're a real pro, a horse rider, but it's mostly bumpy, just moving out of the way. And then you go to swing forward. You feel the saddle shift and you start to fall off. Quick, bucky, bucky. A fun and bumpy, what do you want me to do?
Starting point is 00:23:45 What is this damn rodeo? After the pike man, that is Saul's turn. Saul, go ahead and give me a death saving throw. Okay, great. Very fun going at the bottom of the initiative, so you get to roll. Okay, great, 19. Okay, Saul, on the way to stabilization,
Starting point is 00:24:01 after Saul, that's Callie's turn. I'm going to enter the fray. Okay. And I'm going to target the withen. Okay. So that I can do a slashing flourish on his rider. Sick. 21 to hit.
Starting point is 00:24:17 21 hits. I'm just gonna do a second level smite. Okay. 32 damage to the Wyvern. Sweet. yeah, you see, you're slashing to it. Explosion of arcane energy, your monastone glows, it goes up through your arm and through your sword, slash into it. This thing squeals and rears back. I reluctantly say, thank you, Mother Ship. And then I will do my slashing damage, expendabardic to slash me, God. He's at 1HP, how do you finish him?
Starting point is 00:24:47 I think I just take my luck blade and I shove it all the way down. What? And I wave him around a bit. Jesus Christ, you just kabob him? Yeah, yeah. My God, Kelly. I'm trying to scare off the other guy.
Starting point is 00:25:02 Did you hit the two bikemen look at you? Insane wrist strength. Insane wrist strength. Insane wrist strength. Jokobabia run. They're thinking about it. And then with my free hand, I will bonus extra give Saul a potion. It's a credible next-darity.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Jesus Christ. So go ahead and roll. So you can go ahead and in the background roll 4D4 plus 4. After Calle's turn, that's the archer plus the wyvern. Archer is super dead. Oh my God! The wyvern, even though it's Ryder's dead, is gonna stick around just because it's got,
Starting point is 00:25:39 you know, it just got fucking slashed for so much damage. Fire! Fire! Fire! It's gonna. It's fine. It's gonna take a biting attack against Kali. Just this giant flying worm takes a freaking bite at ya. That's only 16 hits. Miss it.
Starting point is 00:25:54 Then you see the lightning charged stinger swings around to go hit ya. That is gonna hit, that's 25 to hit. Kali, that is 10 damage. And I'm gonna need a con saving throw. You like Saul, I feel like a charge of energy go through you as the thing attempts to incapacitate you. Callie, did the plan work?
Starting point is 00:26:14 Oh, wow. No man, we're all here. Oh, bumpy. Yeah, hey, you created a hell of a diversion. Oh, 14. 14, bales. You take an additional 25 damage. Okay. After the Wyverns turn, that's Bumpy's turn. Fuck him up. You guys want me to turn back and to Bumpy and heal somebody or do you want me to stay a horse and run around? Um, how are
Starting point is 00:26:41 you doing, Kelly? How I'm doing versus what I want him to do. Yeah. Disco with it. This is tricky. This is very tricky. Okay. He'll saw, actually he'll saw maybe. All right, I'm called. There's gonna be a weird for a second. He starts to animal off out of being a horse. I let me just run. You're on top of him like, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. You didn't warn me. You make for this. This would have been a much better distraction. You're on top of him like You make for this this would have been a much better distraction We'll go ahead and cast at first level cure wounds on Saul here. Thank you You see as bumpy shows up Crick elf a black mask on you see these two blue dragon elves a turn and point their pikes at him He heals you for six souls.
Starting point is 00:27:25 Okay, that's Calder's turn. I'm going to attack these two guys who just pointed their swords at my new friend, and horse, 22 to hit. Hit? All right. You can't attack me, man, I used to be this guy's horse.
Starting point is 00:27:40 That's right. I feed him an apple. He eats it like a horse. 13 damage. His teeth stayed the same. And that's a crit baby. Jesus. These guys, I mean, they should be hitting you guys and doing some damage.
Starting point is 00:27:57 You guys are kind of doing awesome. For a fight that started with a giant worm stabbing us all with a poison. Everything is going exactly to plan. 30 damage. Jesus Christ, you completely murder one. So we're just bisects him in half like through the hip and then goes deep into the other dude. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:28:18 An apple a day keeps your enemies at bay. Yeah, you tell him. This last pikeman, it's his turn. He's going to disengage and run off into the woods. Do I get an opportunity to attack? No, he disengages. But he's only 30 feet away. And honestly, Bumpy goes, you know,
Starting point is 00:28:36 I'm not necessarily for murdering fleeing enemies, but he needs, he needs to go down. We need to, we need to for blue dragon costume. Let's get him. Yeah. I'll leave my mask. I swear to freaking God to for blue dragon costume. Let's get him. Yeah I'm so I'm freaking god I will tell you I'm gonna leave your mask and you'll leave with your life Okay, are we sure are we sure we're trying to keep a low profile here. Yeah, it's all certain Yeah, I guess I I quickly look to call her and Cali Let's we have to at least time up. Oh, yeah, at least tie him up. Hey, excuse me, sir.
Starting point is 00:29:05 You left your death. Oh, okay. Yeah, so you, with your movement, you easily get up to him because you can only go 30 feet and go 45. So you get right up next to him. Yeah, I'm just like running this item. We can ask him about the full.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Yeah, let's ask him some of the questions. I'm done. You're done, okay. Yeah, don't. Oh, wait. I quit being an elf. Yeah. I would like to tie him up to the done, okay. Yeah, don't, I quit being an elf. Yeah, I would like to tie him up to the tree though. Okay, I'll say there's kind of a standoff.
Starting point is 00:29:30 He'll stand up the wifers still going absolutely. Oh, wait, I forgot about the wifers. I'll say Saul kind of has this guy. Dude has his art hands up after Saul, that's Kelly. I'm gonna just attack again. Great. That's gonnaie. I'm gonna just attack again. Great. That's gonna hit. Sweet.
Starting point is 00:29:47 Alright, you know what? Who needs spells? I'm using them all. Just a first level smite and I'm gonna do a defensive flourish. We're sleeping well tonight. 29 damage. You. Callie, you can add this wiver into your kebab.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Staff room. I actually prefer to make them into a side salad. Okay. Oh, it's a V for you. I actually prefer to make him into a side salad. Okay. Oh, it's a VJ Wyvern. I actually think he's like really cool though. I kind of don't want to kill a Wyvern. Just want to knock it out? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Seems more fun. Okay. I have no way to like affect it otherwise. I want to knock it out and like drag it into a cave. Go to bed. Go to bed. You dragged the Wyvern away. knock it out and like drag it into a cave. Go to bed. You dragged the wiver in a way.
Starting point is 00:30:27 The blue dragon elf is just there. What is happening? Can I throw another grenade at the mouth of the cave to cause the cave to fall? The collapse of the cave. So the wiver is sucking that for a while. It's gonna slow him down. All right, all right, all right.
Starting point is 00:30:41 Okay, you've got this. You're entombing him. There's blue dragon elf here. Hands up. Yeah, I'm just like with my ga okay, all right, okay. You've got this, you're entombing him. There's blue dragon elf here. Hands up. Yeah, I'm just like with my gauntlets, like gripping him around the waist. Okay, yeah, what do you want? You want my mask?
Starting point is 00:30:51 I want to know your name. I want the mask. My favorite thing is making verb. My name is Chezwick. Okay. Give me your shoelaces Chezwick. Fine. They're just boots.
Starting point is 00:31:04 You just slip them on, they're slip on. Okay, yeah, give them to me. Put your pants on backwards, Cheswick. Fine. They're just boots. You just slip them on. They're slip-offs. Yeah, give them to me. Put your pants on backwards. Cheswick, which fort do you report to? Tell us for fort report. Okay. I push Cheswick.
Starting point is 00:31:15 I will absolutely put you in the high-prince cobalt. I print cobalt. The high-prince cobalt? Yes. Cobalt. Oh, okay. Which fort is that? Like, if I'm looking at a map, right? The high-prince cobalt? Yes. Cobalt. Oh, okay. Which fort is that?
Starting point is 00:31:26 Like, if I'm looking at a map, and like, say, like, where in the chest there? Yeah, in the chest there? Yeah. You see, yeah, you pull out your map, you show them any points, and it's the fort that you would go through. It's the like, southwestern most fort.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Cheswick, I have something really exciting for you. Okay. If you wanted to to in this moment, you could fully slip and join us. How do you like that, Chess? Yeah. Yeah. We can put it in order for a track jacket for you.
Starting point is 00:31:54 I would love to join your team. I really would. We got Chess. I mean, I Chess. I mean, guys. Here, do you want an apple? Yeah, I, do. You got to eat it all.
Starting point is 00:32:08 Oh, you throw fucking apple, man. You got to eat the corn, too. I'll eat the corn. You're not have bad, Jess, wait. Crunch the seeds. Crunch the seeds. Crunch the seeds. I'm eating the corn.
Starting point is 00:32:18 I'm eating the little stem. I'm eating the stem. I'm eating the stem. Chai's, wait, I need you to tell me as my new teammate, which I'm assuming you are sincerely excited about. Tell me all about the thought that the four of us, five of us are going to. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:38 There's like a training yard and a different hours of the day. There's higher levels of sort of ice. I tell you, are you just dressed, Chad, we're buddies, What is going on? Can I use my friends' cantrip on him to try to expedite this? Yeah, yeah. Okay. Okay, Castle, friends' cantrip, he starts to calm down a little bit, and he goes,
Starting point is 00:32:59 Jesuit, what friend? Why does he stay outside of the castle walls? Of course, there's always a chance it'll be spotted by a whyver or a dragon or something overhead. You really just need to be worried about the foot soldiers and whatnot. And I can tell you, I know all of the drills throughout the day.
Starting point is 00:33:17 So if you want to get past their alive, you're going to want old chess with real life. Oh, chess, wake, you're so funny. Right? I'm working on layers of new art. You look on steady. I'm in the crew. going to want those shots. Oh, Chas, wait, you're so funny. Right. I'm working on layers of new art. You look on steady. I'm in the crew. How about another apple?
Starting point is 00:33:30 Yeah, I'll take another apple. And you don't. You don't. OK. Don't eat it too fast. So I know all of the times of when there's the shift changes in the gods. I know when the dragon flyers are out, I know when that. That's great.
Starting point is 00:33:45 Hey, just turn it to a horse and let's get out of here. I can't. You what? It's more a bumpy thing, man. Yeah, don't step on Bumpy's territory. Sorry. Can I? I'm going to use a key point to activate my spectral facage.
Starting point is 00:33:59 I'm just doing inside check to make sure that he's telling us the truth about all this stuff. Sure. Go ahead and make an inside check. 18. You don't know if he's gonna betray you or not, but it seems like that information that he said right there was him telling the truth probably. Okay. Yeah. Actually, he could be very useful because maybe we can use a mess of distraction.
Starting point is 00:34:20 Yeah. Even if he just calls out to somebody and says, It's true. Not to worry. I am. I'm locked up for meeting all those apples. Well, he told me the apples. He should mention the apples.
Starting point is 00:34:32 He should not mention the apples. Yeah, he shouldn't. I think he should probably act. What if I say that I've got a deal in, he doesn't say. I found my own apples. Yeah, well, just don't say anything that Saul tells you to say. Unless it's fucking normal. I don't know what the fuck you talk about at your thoughts.
Starting point is 00:34:46 If it's normal, it's not that Apple's best. I feel like they insempted you to think that you talk about apples and what can you do. Yeah, I don't want you talking. I want you acting like normal. No, I'm just kind of thinking about apples. Yeah, I'm sick from eating all the pits. There's two apples.
Starting point is 00:34:59 Ah, ah, ah. Let's try to. We're bringing you with us. Yeah, we're not going to kill you unless you betray us. How's that? Yeah, it's great to. Okay. So let's stop moving.
Starting point is 00:35:12 Alright, let's all link arms. Yeah, you guys hold up your weapons. Chazwick walks along with you guys. As you guys make your way through the woods, once again, you guys can kind of hear some activity and stuff. Dragons overhead and whatnot, but for the most part, you're able to avoid other people for a little bit.
Starting point is 00:35:31 As you guys continue, you see the sun begins to go down, the canopy of trees, letting in bright daylight, shifts to a purple-ish red as the sun sets, and go ahead and give me perception checks. That's a natural 20. Oh, Jesus. Yeah. As you guys are walking, you guys notice some scattered wood
Starting point is 00:35:51 about, and at first it looks like there could have been some fort or a scout tower here. But within that 20, I'll say that you see this, and you recognize this instantly as the planks of a ship, like an airship. And you look like a little bit further to the east. You walk like in the wrong direction for like a minute. And you find the wreckage of an airship here.
Starting point is 00:36:11 It looks to have been pulled down out of the sky by a dragon. Most of it is scattered around, but there are two huge pieces of hull that are cracked apart in the middle. And you see this looks like this was a mothership airship. Well, I'll be in Tia Chaswick. Okay, well, we're known to track the comings
Starting point is 00:36:33 and goings of mothership when there's certain things that we want to get from them. We have people on the inside who tell us when the shipments are coming and going, we're able to track them and then we snatch them up out of the sky. What'd you take out of this ship? Yeah, what'd you get? Out of this ship in particular, what am I the ship, please?
Starting point is 00:36:53 What you're not, is someone who can talk back to me. What would a ship police do? The ship police, I guess, would know like everything about the ships? I don't think you're talking about like a captain or like a quartermaster. Anyway, what is he the ship, please? You know, as far as you're concerned, yes. Okay. Salute me. I refuse. I just leave the app. Why are you getting confident? Just wait, you weren't even offered an apple. Now you just get crazy with the app. Just hungry. I didn't get you to eat a meal today. You had two apples.
Starting point is 00:37:26 I know, it's just no protein. We normally would have stopped and had a snack. She's getting cranky, that's clear. You see, this guy, the snack police? The pinkie knuckle comes over. Get this guy a trouble, he's angry. I guess I could eat trouble, that's fun. But yeah, Chez Wake communicates
Starting point is 00:37:46 that Dragon Elves hijack airships, which you guys would know, that, I mean, that's why mothership hates the Dragon Elves so much is because they've gummed up their trade routes both by being between Ezri and the Iron Deep Mountains and by attacking the airspace with dragons. So they have to like go way around. And every once in a while, they try to sneak one over
Starting point is 00:38:08 the forest and the elves tend to see them coming. Can we take a peek in the hole and see if there's anything on you? Yeah, go ahead and give me investigation checks. Oh yeah, baby. 22. This is so devastating. I'm rolling so well, but everyone... Is also rolling well?
Starting point is 00:38:24 It's also rolling. I got an A's, don't worry. You rolled better than Froxen. I'm not sure. Detective. What do you detect? Is our call there? You guys look in the cracked hole here.
Starting point is 00:38:35 You see there are shattered wood shipping crates inside that look like they have been looted already. You see that there are papers stapled to the insides of the crates in order to kind of denote what should be in there. The papers are mostly torn up, but you find enough pieces here and there. The ship looks like it was mostly carrying magical items and components, simple things like magical lanterns, but you see that amongst all of this stuff, there was a massive order of these things called Archonetic Transmitters.
Starting point is 00:39:10 Archonetic Transmitters. And anybody can give me an Archonitech or a History Check. That's another Nat 20. Wow. Jesus Christ. So, Saul. Yeah. Albin would talk about these all the time.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Oh yeah, he was always complaining about the archonetic transmitters. Yep. So these are kind of the building blocks of mothership technology. These allow a transfer of power from one source to another. So for instance, a wizard who could cast fireball, could enchant gloves, and make the glove be able to cast fireball. They're making products using that grace. So you can put spellings into things.
Starting point is 00:39:46 It's a component. So they could easily be mass producing weapons with these. Yeah. I don't like that these are in the hands of the blues. Or the greens. I don't like that they're in the woods. You know that the greens over against the blues, right? Chazwick. Guys, go ahead and give me an insight, Jack.
Starting point is 00:40:04 Not 20. Not three. over against the blues, right? Cheswick, guys go ahead and give me an insight, Jack. Nat 20. Nat 3. I also got a Nat 20. Jesus Christ. Cheswick goes, what? Oh my God. But you guys, you already knew.
Starting point is 00:40:19 Are you okay with it? Are you on the side of the greens? Okay, do we want to put all our cards out on the table? Yes, because I don't have that 20, so tell me everything. Put all your apples on the table. Okay. Okay, the greens have this grand plan. And they needed some blues on the inside.
Starting point is 00:40:37 And the high prince cobalt has been promised the throne after the high king is dead. So there's some blues and some greens working together. The high prince cobalt know that Peruincol was gonna have to eat it for high prince cobalt to get a promotion. We're all devastated by Peruincol's death, but they should call him Kubalt.
Starting point is 00:41:02 That's really good. So you should call him what? Like it's a good for day. You're a prisoner Okay crack up at that That's weaving How do you just like a soldier know about this? Yes, yeah, cuz you're no one. Okay, rude. First off, sorry.
Starting point is 00:41:26 My friends taking shits better than you. I've seen them. Very rude. Do you say better rather than bigger? It takes bigger and better. Not big shits, but good ones. It's about quality. I do a poop check, really quick.
Starting point is 00:41:43 14. Look, I may have taken a shift here or there, not a shift, but a shift. Wearing the Void Elf mask, it's, it's, we're all involved to a certain extent with the staged attacks and Kobalt's men are leading the fake investigation against the Void, so we're kind of keeping the wild goose chase going, keeping the crown busy while the greens do their work. During this conversation, I'm wanting to collect this evidence. I know that we have these little mana stones. Is there any recording capacity?
Starting point is 00:42:18 This is kind of why I'm... If there's... Go ahead and make me an arcana check. I'm just fiddling with it like wanting to. Really good idea. That's an at 20. No! So many 20s.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Kali, what are you curious about in this moment? Like what is what is the question you want to ask for like a friend of yours? I think I'm just like digging into this manor stone. I've kept it around for some reason. And so I'm like thinking about Alexandra and like I know that we're offline, but there's some sort of like technology in here. So I'm just kind of like digging around. I just want to bait him into saying it if there was any way to have some sort of recording. Cali, you channel some energy into your monestone. And you don't have precise enough control of it to trigger any kind of like recording mechanism.
Starting point is 00:43:12 That's not really how this worked. But you do feel a surge of power in there and you feel something activate. And you get the sense of another presence. It kind of feels like when Alex Zandreight would contact you in the past. And suddenly you see the rola decks, the message sending toilet paper in your pack, rolls out of your pack and shows a message. They're powering a weapon. What?
Starting point is 00:43:46 Oh, you sit from. Oh shit. It's Beatrix. Yeah. It's... Wait. How exandrix. Is she- is she been watching us this whole time?
Starting point is 00:44:00 Or did you like accidentally reach out to us? I was just kind of like duck around in my belly button but... And... You found some really... Do you place it as lint in there? That's deep belly button lint. Yes. That is arcane lint.
Starting point is 00:44:15 So that's what all the arkinetic transmitters are doing. What are you powering, Jess? I don't... they don't let me in on everything. We were told that we need the arkineticmitters, that the Greens have some weapon that's going to make this all worth it. What sort of detail are you assigned to tomorrow? Well, I'm not really assigned to do anything. We're sort of just guests.
Starting point is 00:44:39 The Greens are supposed to be putting on a demonstration. So, they're going to reveal this weapon tomorrow. Using archenetic transmitters, this doesn't jive with this supposedly organic beast. If that's their weapon, then they're trying to replicate the natural. The beast is imputing that they're weapon yeah oh so they're all connected they're making like dragon guns that's sick now you want to stand while fucking fell for this guy yeah alright just like it was nice knowing you what we need him going you. What? We need to go through everything. I don't want to scare them. Okay. I'm fucking with you.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Come here, Cheshwick. Oh, my God. You see, Cheshwick does volunteer. Now that you're saying that, it does jog my memory a bit. I'm not, I'm pretty far down the pecking order. I have to be honest. However, we were told that the greens had something that they couldn't control and needed
Starting point is 00:45:54 help controlling it. All right. Okay. Well, this is unexpected, but also exactly what I expected. I feel like we've gotten what we've need from Cheswick. Yeah, I don't really want to linger and find out what's going on. I say we get there and just cover ourselves with leaves and shit until we completely blend it with the wall. Yeah, we can just spy on the entire thing. Yeah. I'm cool with leaves and shit.
Starting point is 00:46:21 Cool. Then if that's the case, I'm going to use my final third level spell and pass without trace with it, because I just want to fucking speed through this. Yeah. All right. And are we keeping chess work around? Are we on foot in a cave as well? OK.
Starting point is 00:46:37 We're keeping it around. We need to fucking put it in a cave. Oh, OK. Once we get past the floor, yeah. Or maybe like a hollow tree. I love that, Cheswick. It's great, yeah. Shove them in a locker.
Starting point is 00:46:49 I do like a little tree fort, Cheswick. You've been promoted. It's wonderful. This episode of NADPOT has brought to you by Bird Dogs. They're a company that makes pants and shorts, so no matter where you fall and the age old battle between the two, you can rest assured that Bird Dogs has you covered. Now we all know when the legwear war begins and we're forced to choose a side, it's gonna be difficult!
Starting point is 00:47:14 Luckily Bird Dogs has made the decision of which pants and shorts to buy a little easier. Bird Dogs stretchy khakis are designed to fit slimmer through the thigh and leg to give you a truly sculpted look. And instead of making their clothes out of restricting cotton, Bird Dogs invented a cloud-knit fabric that looks just like Kackie, but stretches so you get a way slimmer fit without having to sacrifice movement. And trust me, you are going to need all the movement you can get when you and your brothers and legs are out there on the battlefield kicking the shit out of your rivals.
Starting point is 00:47:44 So when the lower body battle begins and brother is forced to kick brother make sure you are wearing bird dogs. To get yours and a free Yeti style tumbler go to birddogs.com slash pop-up or enter promo code pop-up at checkout. That's birddogs.com slash pop-up or promo code pop-up for a free Yeti style tumbler. You won't want to take your bird dogs off. We promise you. Okay, that's it for me. Go team pants and enjoy the show. Okay, so you guys travel past the airship wreckage and close in on the final fort before breaking out of Blue Elf territory. Everybody go ahead and give me a perception check. Not 20, but I don't know.
Starting point is 00:48:29 This is fucking in, this is bad. I've been rolling, I've been rolling 17s, 18s, 19s, and they don't even matter right now. This is unreal. Okay, I fucking eagle-eyed caulder. You guys see a huge stone keep Protected by giant stone walls covered in moss and mines. You see there are scout towers at the gates With arcane archers inside, but also there are roosts for dragons You see two young blue dragons up in the roosts kind of on guard duty here overhead
Starting point is 00:49:01 There are wormlings dragon elves and wy wiverons. Out in front, in the yard, there are pikemen sparring and doing military exercises, the fort, and the area all around it is full of people. The woods around here are crawling with blue elves. But called her with that nat 20, you look around and see that there are other nearby scout towers that aren't on the castle wall. But they're like a little bit out. These look like maybe like hunting grounds or areas for people to scout the approaching paths
Starting point is 00:49:31 to see people coming towards the fort. And Calder, you notice one that is taller than the rest. It looks like the top breaks out through the trees. And unlike the others, which as the sun goes down look like they've got like fires and torches on on the inside, this one does not have any light coming off of it. Interesting. What is, uh, what's the deal with that?
Starting point is 00:49:51 Uh, Cheswick goes, well that tower specifically for scouting airships, but I guess with mothership gone, it's probably mostly unoccupied. And so with that at 20, you guys are able to find an area with basically extremely lack security and bypass the whole fort. Fort Skip? Ah, yep. The way that was gonna work is based on your perception check
Starting point is 00:50:17 that's how good of sort of a lay of the land you get and you guys are able to find a path where you can and we around for any sort of like, as we're going through this empty tower to see if there's any healing potions or poisonous weapons. Yeah, I'll say that you guys can go ahead, go ahead and give me an investigation check.
Starting point is 00:50:39 I meant more like the area around the tower on like if it was manned, not about going into the tower, but I will say go ahead and give me an investigation check as you guys get close. My investigation isn't great. I looked a call and I say tell me where to look I say help action to you. All right. That's only a seven. A seven. Okay. I'll say you guys look around the tower. You don't want to spend too much time finding around here. You think you might like use somebody. It's a walking scan.
Starting point is 00:51:08 Yeah, you do find some maps and things of different flying patterns and stuff, like different trade routes for mothership. And it looks like this is probably where they tracked the airship that they would later take down to get the organic share. I'll talk it a map.
Starting point is 00:51:23 Yeah, make good homes. It's cool. I think about a potion. It's just lotion. Should I get the lotion?are. I'll talk it a map. Yeah, I make good homes. Sick. Wait, I think about a potion. It's just lotion. Should I get the lotion? Get the lotion. I bring some lotion. What's it centered like?
Starting point is 00:51:30 I could use some lotion, honestly. You've elliptus. You don't get any lotion just, Rick. Sweet. So you guys clear the woods near the Hyper-N-Scobalts Fort and see that the forest begins to change. As you guys go like a couple miles out, you see the lush trees begin to thin out. At first, there's all this like overgrown greenery
Starting point is 00:51:50 and everything, like the rest of the living wood, until you start to reach patches of dead trees and dead grass below you. And finally, dirt gives way to black ash and obsidian. Everybody go ahead and give me perception checks. That one. 17, 30, 20, cool. You guys see, as you proceed, there are fissures in the ground and dried out rivers based on the area. This looks like at one time it may have been covered in lava. Probably brought here by the ancient red dragon,
Starting point is 00:52:20 Laverick's Beatrix's dragon, of's lair is where they're holding the summit. Wait, so there's like ash on the ground? Uh-huh. Can I scoop some up and just, I don't know, hang on to it, seems like it could be a spell component or something. Yeah, cool, yeah. Because it was once, it once meant something to Beatrix and Beatrix is on the bottom of the ocean, I don't know. Here put it in this bag that was holding my apples. It's completely empty now. We gotta go shopping.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Fill an apple bag with ash. Fill an apple bag with ash. You guys see in the distance as the trees start to die out and everything gets a lot clearer. You see a massive inactive volcano that seems to still emit a little bit of ash out of the top. The volcano is mostly natural except for the bottom where there is a massive gate built into it.
Starting point is 00:53:15 Like a massive entrance. Looks like this is where Laverick's is layer was and you guys see a few dozen green dragons and green dragon elves around Looks like they're preparing for tomorrow. This is where the sun bit us, huh? Yeah Do we see like a day us or a platform that you would think it would be inside? I mean I really don't want to get into another scuffle. Yeah, no So break all right, let's just take a long walk about. I need a break.
Starting point is 00:53:47 I'm gonna lie. I'm gonna lie. If you guys, here's what I'm gonna tell you. There's kind of two challenges here. You guys are in the middle of like a dead forest right now, near volcano, near a bunch of people that are essentially guarding this to make sure that nobody who's gonna snitch to the king or whatever is gonna find you so So they're looking for people doing exactly what we're trying to do
Starting point is 00:54:09 So your choices either you risk it all and you try to get in there tonight or you try to blend in with the crowd tomorrow Okay, maybe maybe we maybe we can do it tomorrow, but I don't know if it's gonna make a difference. Is it? Somebody I mean their dragon somebody's gonna be watching the top of the volcano. The cauldera. Oh. I was thinking that too. Pretty cool. Is that what you're named for?
Starting point is 00:54:31 No. No. No. Maybe you have a lot of cousin somewhere. Not fire shit. Guys, as part of the crew, I think maybe old chiswick should go in. And to what?
Starting point is 00:54:44 No, I'm not. Absolutely not. I'm not for that, Ches. I gotta take my shot. I know. You know what, we need to get rid of Kim. Oh yeah. Call their draws a sword.
Starting point is 00:54:54 What are you? I'm fucking with you. Callers really funny. Gotcha, yeah, Cheswick. He's a comedic detective. No, you do have to wander into a nearby cave and we're gonna fill it with rocks. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:08 Excellent. Yeah, you guys hike a little bit. You find a nearby cave. I think there might be a bear in here. It's fine. Well, do you guys wanna collapse the cave? Yeah, but we can't leave a couple like beams of light, a cracks in the cave and collapse it so that he has like just like the glimmer of hope.
Starting point is 00:55:27 Okay. Are you ready? A grenade, but I'm like someone put some fucking food in there. Oh, yeah, I toss some goger tubes in there. Oh, go get one more apple. There you go. Okay, protein would be wonderful. You say as, as as as on wonderful, the fucking grenade makes contact. Do you see the some scenes or not? No. Yeah, there's an explosion nearby.
Starting point is 00:55:48 I'll say you essentially throw a grenade over the cave now. So he kind of rushes in a few years ago. Bear, stand back. It sounds like he might be in some trouble, but you hear. You can just take his way out. Yeah, but yeah, the, um, uh, front of the cave collapses, but you get the sense that he probably survived,
Starting point is 00:56:11 but he is indeed trapped in there. I can't wait. Should I go get what's expired? We just need him to be trapped for like a day. We just need to buy ourselves a day. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Before he rats us out. The collapse, you hear muffled from behind the rocks.
Starting point is 00:56:25 The collapsing cave made sort of like a little tunnel thing and the bear's on the other side. And the bear got all the goger. Yeah, I did that on purpose. Okay, but just the bear got the goger. I mean, the bear watered it more. You know, what do you want me to say, Chess? Slip some seeds.
Starting point is 00:56:44 And I look for some seeds. Can I look for some seeds? I got a 13. You find some seeds. I think you find some seeds. Everyone just give us a spit on it real quick, like disgruntled fucking. Yeah, fuck this guy. Yeah, fuck this seeds. Yeah, I hold the inverter bumpy.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Go nuts, go absolutely nuts on the seeds. Yeah. Wow. Absolutely. There's a temple in there. Toss the seeds in. Yeah, you guys toss this, you guys give food to this fucking weirdo that's not gonna get it now.
Starting point is 00:57:15 Who just kind of loudly complaints to no one is gonna leave him. He's gonna be an urban legend one day. I guess maybe we should look for an uncollapsed cave of our own, maybe with no bear. Yeah, because actually that did look really hospitable. We should collapse in an uncollapsed cave. Yeah. Catch the most.
Starting point is 00:57:33 Do you have any more of that gogert? Because that hasn't come up before. So I'll give away his one-time gogert. Shit. That he's been carrying forever. Honestly, I trusted me with that goger. Using a goger on Chesswick is correct. Yeah, so you guys can look around for a cave for you guys
Starting point is 00:57:53 kind of make a shelter for the night. Everybody go ahead and give me nature checks. I got an add-to. Okay, I got a 21 if rolled a lot of two. Bumpy got an 18. So yeah, between Calder and Bumpy, you guys find a decent cave. Seems to be abandoned by whatever animal may have lived here at one point. And yeah, if you guys find a little cave,
Starting point is 00:58:14 I'll say you guys go back, kind of backtrack a little bit, get out of the wooded area with like all of the dead trees where it's kind of very easy to be seen. You guys have kind of scoped out where the summit is and you find a safe place within walking distance, quick walking distance where you can get a rest. You guys start a little fire in this cave.
Starting point is 00:58:36 Well, good night. Way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way, way. Okay, all right, all right. Well, before we all settle in, do we want to just talk about how we're going to approach this tomorrow? Yeah. No fucking clue to be honest.
Starting point is 00:58:48 I was really hoping we were gonna be able to just swipe the egg, but that seems like that ship is long since sailing. And the egg is hatched. Yeah. Whatever's happening in there, if we're gonna have to go in with the group of people that's all going in, right? We're gonna have to blend in and sneak in with everyone.
Starting point is 00:59:06 At this point we have four blue dragon masks now. Right. Yeah, I got pass-about trays. Yeah. I think God. Hey, I'm here for you, Kelly. I think we're gonna be seeing what's happening at the summit at the same time as everybody else. Oh no. We're not gonna get to see it first. I mean, maybe just like, they're clearly going to be seeing what's happening at the summit at the same time as everybody else. Oh no. We're not going to get to see it first. I mean, maybe just like, they're clearly going to do some sort of, some sort of demonstration. They bring something out and we'll have foster there and we're maybe, although, are we going to make a stand tomorrow?
Starting point is 00:59:42 Are we going to try to fight everybody? I don't know. I don't know. Can I type into the toilet paper? Hi. Although are we gonna make a stand tomorrow? Are we gonna try to fight everybody? I know can I type into the toilet paper? Hi, what should we do? Caller you write hi, what should we do? Yes, it's called her You get a message back Need you to get close Then that's the mission, okay, okay? so we're just gonna get close and hope that the piece of toilet paper stays the day. I think we get close and then we improvise. That's what we always do. Yeah, I think this time we should stay together though. I squeeze everyone's hands, the ear gets dark.
Starting point is 01:00:25 We're a troop after all. Speaking of which, I would like to give Colda a bardic inspiration. Okay, thank you. And I will also, as soon as you're getting tucked in, I'm gonna cast Bless on you. Okay, so that's like a bardic face wash and a Bless serum that goes like a on you. Okay, so that's like a bardic face wash and a bless
Starting point is 01:00:52 Serum. Yeah, yeah, okay. Uh-huh. That's nice. I'm gonna prepare you a cup of guidance tea. Oh The guidance isn't gonna help with the saving throw. Oh, you're right. I still drink it. Yeah Okay, how many points has Calder put on the helm to just two? Okay, okay so points has Calder put on the helm. Two. Just two. Okay. Okay. So as you guys go off to sleep, Saul and Bumpy kind of fall asleep first. Cali is in her trance. Calder, you feel some anxiety about this,
Starting point is 01:01:16 but you begin to drift to sleep with the comfort of the bless spell and the bardic inspiration. And Calder, as you drift off to sleep, your eyes blink as you start to get tunnel vision and you open them. And you are on the frozen plane, hand on hand with Ultras on the other side of this force field. Go ahead and give me a con saving throw. Hey, dude. Hello. That's a 23. Good night, buddy. Good night, the golden kill today. The image flashes and ultra stays behind the force field and you stay on the right side and you drift off to a peaceful sleep. And with that, we'll move over to Kali.
Starting point is 01:02:08 Kali, you're in a trance over by the mouth of the cave, kind of looking out onto the living wood at night. You see, as you're in your trance, foster kind of waddles over and snuggles up at your side. Can I sit in my like cross legs? Right. It goes over Hyde's feet and plops down in your cross legs. And Kelly, as you're looking out at the living wood here, you hear the sounds of the forest
Starting point is 01:02:38 to the sounds of all these like dragon elves and wormlings and everything and different kind of lizards and like sister species of dragons making noise. You're very much reminded of when you would go on walks with Glen or you'd, you know, sit on hill tops and look at the tops of the trees and stuff like that. And knowing that you will likely run into Glen fear tomorrow tomorrow. How is Clivey feeling? I think Clivey's feeling a bit scared that she's going to get caught up
Starting point is 01:03:11 in the smoke and sandalwood of it all. I think that also she thinks back to called us shit on that note. And sort of the revelation she had of like, I'm never gonna be able to make him regret dumping me. But I think there's also the new feeling of like, okay, if I can't make him regret dumping me, maybe I can make him regret pissing me off. So I think it's like, okay, if I can't make him regret dumping me, maybe I can make him regret pissing me off. So I think it's like he didn't care about me, but he really fucking cares about this weapon.
Starting point is 01:03:54 And if I can take the weapon from him, then at least I can see a little bit of pain on his face. I'm like holding Foster being like, please don't intuit any of this, because I know this is deeply unhealthy. You actually, as you get that feeling of, I can't get to him through our relationship, but I can get to him by taking this weapon.
Starting point is 01:04:19 You see that Foster begins to puff up. Foster, do you want revenge? I've been feeling like it's like really unhealthy. Go ahead and give me an insight check. 99 a die becomes a very 30 20. Kali, Foster doesn't speak, but he's familiar. So you sometimes kind of share feelings, like you can feel what he feels. And usually it's just kind of, if he's scared,
Starting point is 01:04:52 you'll feel scared, it's like kind of heightened emotions. But this feels special, this is different. This is a very nuanced emotion. In this moment, you feel his sympathy for the egg and the beast inside of it. Really? I thought he was like the antidote to it. You feel that he has like a kinship with it and as you feel that it kind of does jog your own memory to when you first had the egg and you very much so sympathized with the beast inside. Because it was supposed to protect it.
Starting point is 01:05:30 Yeah, it was supposed to go to some cruel beast master that was keeping dragons and cages. And you fled with it at great risk to yourself away from your family, away from everyone. And you did the only logical thing that you could think of, which is you know you thought it was a dragon so you brought it to the dragon elves thinking they would help and at that moment when you were lost when you had kind of no
Starting point is 01:05:53 one to trust when you know you couldn't go to your family when you couldn't go to anyone else Glenn was there and he he manipulated you but but your trip to the living wood was never, never about him. And foster has this, this like kinship with the egg, you feel it. Yeah, I think I'm like, I look down at foster and I'm like really grateful because I think I got really hung up in how bad I felt. I got so distracted with the self-flatulation. I forgot that really all I wanted to do was just save this little egg. And now you want to save the egg. And now you want to maybe fuck over Glenn a little bit to yeah, you won't
Starting point is 01:06:48 Okay, you want to get him you want to stop My little baby want to stop him. I'm baby so stop him. Okay, okay. Call the mixer sleep. Call the neisers Guys can you keep it down? Through an epic battle he woke up. I get the other shots Through an epic battle he woke up. I get another shot Easy call there once again goes into it trans. No, and then I think the last thing I do is I take the shitty note Read one small Yeah, I'm gonna light a candle. Shit wafes into this very small cave.
Starting point is 01:07:32 Yeah, you have this moment with Foster and then you reenter your trance. I have like a six mile in my face. You have a six mile in your face. Let's stay stuck for the whole night. And the next morning, the sun rises, and the light shines into the cave, just bathing it all in warm light, as bumpy stirs away. Ugh!
Starting point is 01:07:58 Hey! Oh, we're bumpy. You know how to make eggs? Hey, yeah, I can make some eggs. You want me to turn to a chicken and lay some eggs? Oh, wow. That got me. You see, Saul is already halfway through making an omelet.
Starting point is 01:08:11 He's just like, I'll just go toss this in the river then. Oh, all right, perfect. We have a pants. Ha, ha, ha, ha. But we make eggs. It's got that good orange yolk. Yeah. Fresh, well-treated.
Starting point is 01:08:24 It's pretty funny to see a chicken wearing an apron cooking eggs that just came out of its butt. It's got the layers. We don't want you to say it. Got the trick. Keep it light. Keep it light. Keep it light.
Starting point is 01:08:35 Keep it light. Keep it light. I like that. Hey, bumpy. I guess you said that you and my daddy self went on a lot of adventures. What do you think that big salt would do in a situation like this? Oh, well, we mostly try to avoid the other hills.
Starting point is 01:08:53 Oh, yeah. All right, so this is going right into a giant volcano full of them. That's the type of thing we kind of bypass. So you're saying that there's a first for everything. There's a first for everything brother.'s a first for everything, brother. Yes, sir. Yeah. That's all hugs and chicken.
Starting point is 01:09:08 Yeah. Hey. I guess I won't do some stretches. Get ready, get loose. Oh, yeah, I can cast a... If everybody wants to get into some cloaks and whatnot and call their, I'll say this much. There are the occasional, some of the half of the high princes have like dragonborn and whatnot that
Starting point is 01:09:28 That might guard for them and things like that So having kind of a big stocky guy like you might not be Too out of place in a big crowd as long as you got your cloak up in a mask on. Yeah, I guess this helm does make me look a little taller Yeah, I'll keep the I'll keep the cloak up in the mask on. Which has to be dragonborn. Are there any animals around? Yeah, go ahead and give me a nature check. Okay, I'll help around that.
Starting point is 01:09:53 Yeah, go for it. Go with the 13. 13? Yeah, there are birds around. I'll say you see some chipmunks and squirrels and things like that. And of course, there's little dragons and things like that, like sort of lesser cousins to wormlings. Okay, I'm just gonna ritual cast Speak with Animals.
Starting point is 01:10:14 And I think I just want to like hit up and be like, what's the gossip? What's been coming and going from that volcano. Anyone got something good for me because I've got a lot of berries or whoever's got the best gossip. You see this little Drake, this little blue Drake scampers along the rocks over to you and goes, I can tell ya, I can tell you who came by. Can we bear this?
Starting point is 01:10:44 Oh fuck, it it's run out What you say hey you have a problem I'm gonna give you your right fix but I need some I need some Yeah, well, what have you been seeing what if I've been seeing a author's all kind of dragons man There's white dragons. There's green dragons. There's blue dragons. There's even a couple of deep dragons What have you been seeing? What have I been seeing? Oh, there's all kind of dragons, man. There's white dragons, there's green dragons, there's blue dragons, there's even a couple of deep dragons, man. Have you been smelling any new smells?
Starting point is 01:11:14 Any kind of that new animal? Yeah, man. There's usually not that many dragons out here. Okay, for folks in here. Yeah, usually they're quiet around here. It's usually pretty quiet around here. Okay, so you're having the fucking time in your life. Yeah, there's a lot of people around. It's just as you can go off and you can ask for a barrier.
Starting point is 01:11:30 Look at the barrier. You tweaking. Stop licking your eyeballs, man. Put it out of its misery, Kelly. I'm really happy. I'm really happy. Everybody's around. I'm really happy because everyone's around. That's beautiful. I don't think it's bees sincere. I think it's sincere. I think it's all about myself out of here.
Starting point is 01:11:55 You're what? I'm not by myself out of here. Kali, Wormlings do not eat berries. This thing is sick. I think it might be. I eat squirrels too. I collect the sick dragon under my arm and I say, stick with me, kid. You'll have nothing but berries. All right. It's a pinuck of fostering.
Starting point is 01:12:14 You gotta start making funny tweakers. I'll start. Come on. Okay, but did you see anything arriving in the cover of night? Anything that, you know, there's the normal time when the entourage would arrive. Right here, but she's seen anyone trying to sneak in. Yeah, well, there's a lot of people calling in now, and last night it was mostly just great drag and flying around, but then I put your L-shot up and there was a big
Starting point is 01:12:48 cray dragon and the cray dragon was tied up and they have these poles and they were shocking. Oh no, that's your run. The example. Was it sure and wrong? Was he gray? I don't know whose room that is.
Starting point is 01:13:03 Was he covered in mushrooms? It was covered in mushrooms. Okay, Shroomat's there. I think that whatever they're testing in there, whatever weapon they build, I think that Shroomat might be the recipient of it. What was he tied up in? Well, there were these guys that had like, really long poles and they would snap them. They would snap them and it's how they moved.
Starting point is 01:13:25 You seem really excited about that. Yeah. Okay, I don't like you anymore. I throw them into the sky. I thought that was. Wow. Good bye, Bob. You see a bigger dragon goes by and catches them and keeps flying.
Starting point is 01:13:40 That thing was fucked up. It just it would he said everyone's around and it's making me happy. Yeah, that was dangerous. Lizard was on Molly. He was he was speaking. No, he was something most innocent in Molly. Here's a question for you all. Should I be wearing still or something or do you think I'll be able to just pass through at my current height wearing a mask? Or should I just kind of try and hang back and just hide the best of my ability?
Starting point is 01:14:17 You know, it would be fucked up to bring like a kid, but somebody not bring a kid. I would say if you were in the middle of the woods, people might be able to like, you know, it's just like you and another person, they might be able to tell that you're a frog, but if we just kind of slip in into a big crowd being subtle, we make sure we cover your big frog feet with some boots.
Starting point is 01:14:37 Yeah. So bring your kids to the summit day. Yeah, bring your kids to the summit. All right. I don't like when people bring their kids to like, like fucked up weird conspiratorial meetings. It happens out here in the living wood. It's just completely inappropriate. Wow. Alright, so we're doing that. Kelly, we might get a few looks. I'm going to need my
Starting point is 01:14:56 scene partners to help prepare me for this role. I can pass without trace. Okay. Yeah. And I'll say that'll kind of act as almost like a disguised role. Like you guys are essentially hiding amongst the crowd. Well, look Kelly, I know we're trying to move on from Glenn, but I did spend some time washing and ironing your track jacket just so you can go in there looking fresh. Thank you. I'm gonna wear it because I love my track jacket and truthfully, then would fucking hate this. Then let's go and brown.
Starting point is 01:15:31 I hate it on me. You didn't wash mine though. I'm, you're discovered in eggs. I will press this vegetation to clean your track jacket. Oh. Thank you, Kat. Or at least one cubic foot of it. It was all concentrated in one cubic foot, all just a very wet bit of eggs. So is that it?
Starting point is 01:15:53 Is it time to go in? Yeah, I think so. I just think I know he's gonna be on stage and everyone's gonna be fucking laughing it up. Yeah. I'll just picture him in his underwear. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,. I have about like, okay, what's the least hot outfit you could wear? Like, racquet bowl? Oh, that's not bad. Don't shorts are really short. Yeah, I kinda shaggabos can't hide. Okay, yeah, yeah. Like, the kind of shorts that are so short that you like see
Starting point is 01:16:39 the nuts, like, the nut shape. Yeah, it goes around the bin. All right, good. Got it. All right, good. Got it. All right, everyone picture him in that. Racket ball it is. All right, we'll picture him in a racket ball uniform. All right, Doug, true.
Starting point is 01:16:51 Let's get going. Yeah. So you guys exit the cave here. All wearing blue dragon elf masks, including bumpy. Bumpy and Callie kind of just look like blue dragon elves. Calder, kind of standing a little bit shorter, but with like the wide frame can kind of pass for a dragonborn, then Saul's walking next to you guys,
Starting point is 01:17:14 kind of walking awkwardly in humid boots, trying to hide his giant front feet. Mumpi's hand. Yeah. All right, son. Oh boy, thanks for taking me to the summer daddy. No problem, we're gonna unseat the king. I love being part of a political insurgency.
Starting point is 01:17:33 We love it. So you guys start walking towards this volcano towards a Laverix's old layer. And you guys see dragons flying in from all directions. It's no wonder that the green dragons have seen fits to recruit the closest fort to their cause because there's no way people wouldn't notice this in kind of the air space around here. You see there are white dragons, green dragons, lesser blue dragons. You're not seeing any like big adult ones because presumably a lot of the other high princes
Starting point is 01:18:05 wouldn't be cool with this. And you even see a couple deep dragons and things like that. Just kind of lesser dragons that maybe don't have titles from sort of lesser dragon lines or less powerful ones are all coming to the summit. Just so we understand, are they the deep dragons? Does it seem like they're betraying the deep dragons that the deep elves that we met by coming here or is it more like
Starting point is 01:18:29 we just got an invitation we're serious at the very least they're going to a conspiratorial meeting held by the green elves which is kind of a red flag so it's not necessarily everyone going here isn't necessarily gonna join whatever Glenn has planned, but they're either very least cool with hearing it out. Yeah. We really got to invest in some recording equipment or something, huh? We should start a podcast.
Starting point is 01:18:58 So yeah, you see some dragons are going up and what's the top of a volcano called? Codera. Codera, some dragons are going up and with the top of the volcano called Caldera, Caldera, some people are flying in through Caldera, hot sister. Some people are flying in through the entrance kind of just like tucking their wings and going through the hallways. And yeah, as you guys approach, let's go ahead and do a group stealth check. So with bumpy, there's gonna be four of you. So we'll say if three of you pass, this stealth check passes.
Starting point is 01:19:28 Great, okay. We have password out Trace on us. Yeah, password out Trace. Added plus 10. So it's plus 10, but I still roll with disadvantage. I'll say you don't roll with disadvantage because it's not about being seen here. It's about finding it.
Starting point is 01:19:39 It's about as fine if your armor is making noise. This is just flat. Yeah, got it. Oh my God, a 35. For fuck fuck's. I got a 36. Whoa! You're a very convincing child.
