Goodbye, Sweeties. Welcome to the campaign after the campaign. This is not another D&D podcast. Welcome back to Bahumi everyone.

Bahumi. Bahumi. Bahumi. I'm your Dun master, Brian Murphy, joined by Jake Harwitz. Everyone. Ah! Sweet as.

Emily Axford. Moonshan Sabin, beautiful daughter of the dusk mother, praise be we love you, darkness, and called all dinner. Beverly Togo, the fifth, Coach Bortram's favorite. Oh, yeah. Oh, okay.

And once again, special guest, Brennan Lee Mulligan. Did I sobbing if they're sagging your ass? Cut them off with the pass. Oh, yeah, yeah. You're like, yeah. To have bright flashbacks. You guys did cut them off at the pass. Guys, let's do a little recap.

So last week, Bevin Munchine entered the church of the Revenants and met the leader of the Knights of Penance, Bortrum. You bonded over your shared hatred of the vampires and love of religion, but during your talk, Hard one went full vampire spawn and told Dead Eye to shoot on Bortram. The old gunslinger snuck in to warn the others about Hard one's shifting demeanor, but when you went out to check on him, he was gone. Immediately upon Hard one's departure, you just happened to meet Jivelyn, a dwarven barbarian, and the newest member of the Knights of Penance.

He said that he'd seen Hard one heading towards the Red Fen, so you rushed off. Munchine as a Raven clacked Scarlet, Whalen and their Posse of Vampire spawn along with hard one heading home to Grimhawk Manor. You all rushed up and ambushed them from the rooftops, taking out Scarlet Montgomery in a single round. You had a knockdown dragout fight with Whalen and his spawn, but emerged victorious, the two Mount Gumberneys in Mist Form began retreating to their manner to regenerate meanwhile, Moonshine was able to polymorph vampire spawn hard one and temporarily get him under control,

and that's where we are now. Okay. Ah! So you guys are in, let's say like an alley. It is about four or five in the morning. I'll say just for timeline because we need to be strategic about dead vampires and dead revenants and whatnot. We'll say you guys had your run in with the revenants

at about midnight and now it's about like five in the morning. Oh. Do they take 24 hours to come back? They do take 24 hours to come back, yeah. JV, by the way, great work out there. Great work on alongside you. Yeah. It showed great restraint when it came to not attacking

the possum hard one. I was quite frightened. I was quite frightened. I was understandable. It was strength not to run away. Using that rage as a shield there. Yes, yes. May I catch your bottom? Yes. He's in that rage as the shield there. Yes, he is. May I catch your bottom?

Yes. All right, there you go. Hey, good luck. I'm out there. Oh, thank you. Anyway, we probably shouldn't be standing around a bunch of dead vampires. No, no, no, vampire.

All right, dead I know you got a house and I don't mean to invite people over to your place because that's somewhat rude, but can I invite some friends over to your place? As much as I would love to see my wonderful, comfortable home again. It's like a bunch of thrift stores, all on top of each other.

I like to think about it as my own personal temple to madness, but yeah, sure, right? Yeah, that's a true story. So you've got something in your worship. God damn it, look, I'm got him. All right, there's a lot of empty houses. Why don't we just let ourselves in? One thing I want to ask is,

Bo was probably back at the red fin. Do we want to stop and pay him a visit on our way? Just, I mean, my health ain't great, but I got spells to burn. I have Bortram nods. I could pop a vampire. Is he up in that room still? He's probably up in the room still.

Could we just? And we also still got your pass without trace, so I think we can just head upstairs. And if we want to. Pass without trace is actually definitely gone because it's concentration. Gotcha. If we want to create the illusion that the revenants are just hitting up every spot and bringing a ward of vampires, I think pop and bow might be a good strategy. I'd love to do that. I think I got I got this weird idea. What if one of us went in and Like held the door and then we could go in through the window. So if he tried to escape Bortrum speaks up. Well if we're talking about getting into one of the private rooms

You can get up to the rooms from the outside. We can go around back We don't necessarily have to walk in the front door. That's sure he's also probably not a coward I was thinking like we would go into the window and he would immediately run away He might do that. Bo is a I hate to say it, but he's a he's a knucklehead Yeah, I guess like while we're on our never heard of anything like that. Oh, no go ahead. Okay. I see Yeah, I guess like while we're on our way also you guys have a Insane possum right now a big possum bear. Oh, I won't make you guys constantly I got a lot of checks because between all of you guys Paulie Morpheus. I can't catch fucking flame arrows on you

Oh, what are you what, it is a problem. You do have like, just a wild ass dog essentially. I try to write it. Uh, okay. I get up on the possum, and I kind of like, straddle it, and then I whisper into its ear, and it's like, it's okay, hardball. It's okay, we're gonna get you through this.

Okay, Bev, go ahead and do an animal handling check. Rear, I rear. It's only at 13. Possum hard one does bite you right on the nose. Okay, ow. Quite hard too, just like a vicious, vicious dog. Oh, okay, all right, well. I guess I'm just wondering, like, yeah,

let's go fuck up bow, but like might it be worth deposit in hard paw into some arm-war and Let's go Let's find let's find a place to lie low real quick. There's empty houses all around town We'll find a new little base operations. We'll head over to the red family. We got to do this fast. Yeah, okay So I like can we look around for an empty house? That's like in the back really so you you guys, so RedFen is like kind of in between uptown and downtown, downtown's where like the kind of

peasants and mortals live, uptown's where the vampires are. So you guys get to like the edge of downtown and uptown and pretty quickly you're able to find a place that's like a duplex next to a person who is a shell. So no one can notice, but Windows are boarded up. You don't see any light on inside. I'm looking for a basement or an attic. Most of them are like two levels.

You don't know that you'd find a basement seller. Yeah, you might find a seller. Go ahead and we'll just do a pure luck check. First house, go ahead and roll. I'll say 10 or higher. I got an eight. And eight, okay, first house is no good. We'll say 10 minutes has passed.

Next house. I'll just split up and like check the house. I'm gonna give advantage on this next roll. Okay, okay, so I'll say that you guys are kinda splitting up and going to houses next to each other. 17. Okay, you find a house that has like a dusty old wine cellar with a few bottles left. I'm gonna take in hard pa, take them at screaming. I'm gonna take

them in the wine cellar and then I'm gonna cast a fifth level gay-ass. Okay. And just tell him stay. As moonshine is doing this, I'm gonna look over real quick. My dead eye gets cold and the pupil shrinks all the way down in my dead eye till it finally disappears and the shadows in the room stretch and I'm going to take a disheartened action

to give a hard paw disadvantage on his next wisdom saving throw. That's gonna say, my sister wants you to listen to him, so you better listen. Yeah, now it's a family affair, take a straight. And I would like to pour some beer in a bowl. Is that gonna break the Polymorph, Ham? No, it doesn't have required concentration.

Okay, cool, nice. Okay, so moonshine casts Gaias. She has issued a command, a hard one. Hard one, go ahead and give me a wisdom saving throw with disadvantage. 214s. Okay, then he fails. Okay.

Yes. So for the next 30 days. I can release it sooner, but for the next 30 days, he's going to stay in here. Okay. If he acts in a manner directly countered to my instructions, then he'll take damage. Got it. So here's what I'll say, based on kind of what you've seen

with the way that hard one as a spawn was acting when around the Monk Umries. It seems like Scarlet Monk Humry has like the closest Relationship with him because she's the one who turned him so if she were to come back she might be able to just like Make him come to her, but the other Monk gumries would probably need to be like within society Okay, yeah, that's what I'm saying. So it's not it's it's certainly a good idea. Yeah, okay, so you just told him to stay It's not it's it's certainly a good idea. Yeah, okay, okay, so you just told him to stay So I hold this thing there so mad still just like sitting there All right, let's try and make it nice though. We sweep up. We make it a nice little cell

I fashion like a little possum chute toy a scratch my like bony chin and go No wonder if we got like a spare door off of a pantry and some spare lumber and built a little shed pantry and some spare lumber and built a little shed in the doorway of the seller. And then I called that my house and made it and not invited into it. Would he not be able to leave extra? Is that one more double double safety? Maybe there's a rule book in the Montgomery National Church. Actually, I'm going to modify it to stay, but enjoy yourself. I'm here. I'm here. I'm here. Do we want to put some?

I was going to be so joy your stay. Is my new game. Possum hard one now doesn't like you, but dang it, he respects you. We want to put some blood in a bowl in case he gets hungry. All right, I prick my thumb. You just take giving them the taste for it.

Yeah, I'm pouring it in. I think we're past that I look up like a maniac Doesn't seem healthy at all. Okay, so does everyone feel like this is like this is safe to leave them here This is best we gonna do. I think we should head to red fan before all right. Let's do it So just to be clear just so we know what we're dealing with as far as the Montgomery's are concerned There are seven siblings and then Ambrose himself So just to be clear, just so we know what we're dealing with, as far as the Montgomery's are concerned. There are seven siblings, and then Ambrose himself. You've got Scarlett and Wagland,

who we've already missed it, yeah, then we've got Beau over at the Red Fen. Then there are a bunch of other sick puppies who mostly just spend their time at the man or who never really leave the house. You got Priscilla, who's this extremely powerful little girl. She's pretty much attached at the hip to her sister, Dolly. Then you've got Wyatt, who's this kind of half giant.

He's more beast than vampire, really. Maybe worst of all, you got Petunia, who in a sick family, she might be the sickest. She wants captured one of my revenants and tortured him so bad that he renounced the Duskmother and decided to go to hell instead of deal with her. So that's where we're at. No one rebelled against their breeding.

We don't got one of them who's working against the fam. No, a prison company excluded. Looks at the possum, just lapping up blood. Vampires tend to not be great people. Yeah, I mean, we got a lot of people, two down, what's that five more to go? Four more to go?

Let's whittle. Yeah, well, five more kids and then daddy. Mm-hmm, then daddy. Yeah, I mean, we're going after Bill right now. Let's go ahead and miss Bill. Yeah, okay, let's do it. How do we wanna go about this? Go up the back, not through the main place.

I'll go ahead and knock on the door and when he opens up I'll blast him. Yeah, sounds great. Cool. So you guys head on over near the Red Fen. I'll say you guys are, I'm not even gonna make you do stealth checks because there are mortals up here.

It's getting late, there's not as many people around. Believe it or not, the sun does rise in a shadow fell, but it's only for like a few hours each day. It's just this like a big old dead star, near dead star rather, that's like this dark red color that shines this bleak red Across these like black clouds. You guys haven't gotten to see it yet But did I knows all about it? It's kind of just how you tell

Did I you said that this place sucks, but this is beautiful sunrise. It's a take on a sunrise a different take on a sunrise But it's beautiful. Yeah, you didn't tell us you had a blood star you Have to understand that your optimism is a dagger in my heart every time you speak You know some people say that the blood star is actually the dusk mother showing the light and the darkness Yes, I agree the death. I was gonna I was gonna ask I'll price at the desk We are the blood star

Shads in the dark. That is blood star in the dark. That's how every song ends. We have shaman in the dark. Yeah, we are, you know, there's only like four or five but none of us are musicians. We do our best. Okay.

Right on, right on. Right on. So as you guys approach the back though, you guys might draw attention if you're trying to climb up to a balcony or something. You know he's on the second floor, so let me know who's going and what you guys are doing as you round the back.

Probably. I wanna sneak and see if anyone's out back. Okay, moonshine, go ahead and give me a stealth check. Are you pass without tracing or anything? No, back. Okay, you're just gonna walk back. 20. Okay.

Go ahead and give me just like a pure luck check to see kind of who's back there. Three. Three. Okay, not great. A vampire couple is back there just making out. They seem like kind of non-combatants, but there are three vampire spawn back there

like leaning up against the building, and you see above them on the second floor are two balconies. It looks like there's two rooms that have balconies on the second floor there. Are they like smoking blood cigarettes? Yes. Wow. They're vaping. They're vaping. They're vaping blood-lavered mist. One of them is doing strawberry, but These these spawn let me into his room not more than a few hours ago. I could I could maybe I throw a y'all in the bag Walking there like I got loot for him and then I just dump y'all out the bad at oh Yeah, hey JV so we got a bag of holding and it really sucks to be in there You can only be in there for a very short time.

It's not so bad. It's pretty demeaning. We have fun in there. It's no time out sack is what I'm saying. Oh, the time out sack. Yes, a bunch of children hopped out of that bag and they attacked my mate. Wow, we really brutalized your people, huh?

Oh, yeah. We tried to kill them, this, though. Yeah, I once saw them back when back in my day I saw travel or some kind of bandit get pulled into the time out bag and the noise haunts me to this day. I thought my death was that. Second base to death. I think if you if you think you can hoof it up the stairs quick enough because we may have to hop out of the bag of holding if it gets to be too long, there's a hiccup.

I'm just gonna walk up the back steps and go right to the room. So not everybody's gonna be able to, so it's a 500 pound limit. So. Well, I do have two second level, so I could do invisibility on someone. Hmm, you could certainly do invisibility on someone.

You could certainly do that. I think the people who are going to weigh the most is our friend, JV and Bortram is fucking biggest hell. Also, point out which one, because young Bev and myself can misty step to that balcony. That's very true. Oh, you sure can. Oh, wait, no, I don't have enough stuff. You see Bortram also goes, I don't, I don't have enough stuff. You see, you see Bortram also goes, I don't wanna start a scene here,

but if you need me to, I could just run in and start raking the spawn guys. Maybe that actually would be good to provide us some cover because we're gonna make a ruckus upstairs. Let me join you. I want to be a shield. Oh, you know what, but JV, maybe we need you upstairs.

I'll go with after I'm dating. I think that we might need a shield upstairs You send me in yeah, all right. I'll Just so agreeable. Yeah, I just want to tell you that you are very hospitable and that is an increasingly rare Quality in this world. You know what? He points to Bound or This guy here doesn't have you know, he's got a lot of grit, he's got a lot of heart, but he doesn't have magic weapon. I don't think he's going to be able to do too much against our friend Bo there, so what

doesn't he stay down here with me? We take on these three knuckleheads down here. You cool with that Boundor? Yeah. Yeah. Alright. Yeah, I'm cool with what I can also go up with you guys. It's up to you.

Just Boundor, let me know if you get hurt or something because you aren't gonna have someone to heal you. It's just the three spawn down here. Okay. They'll be okay. Two quick questions. Can you all hear what's going on outside the bag? You could like crack it, yeah. Okay, so we can crack it, you can hear

and you guys can jump out on your own. Yeah. All right, then you jump out when you hear the first shot ring out. All right. Sounds perfect. It works for me. So then, is it okay, so then?

I don't think I ever debased myself to go into the bag, but I guess there's a first for everything. Oh! So I'll say, if you guys, if you guys unload some of your stuff and maybe like hide, I guess you guys don't even have that much loot anymore. Why don't I just miss these stuff out? You just miss the stuff out in there.

And I wait for the first shot to go in. Can we give Balnor the Queen Samor? I think you can. He on in there. And I wait for the first shot to go in. Can we give Balnor the Queen, Sam? I think he's worthy. I think he's worthy. Only large possums can have that. Oh, cool. Before you go in, I would like to take a very warm sibling

embrace of dead eye and I would like to bestow upon him flame arrows. So for the next hour, he does an extra D6 fire damage. Oh, he doesn't do enough damage. Thank you so much. For 12 shots. Very cool. Dead eye looks very touched by this hug.

You've truly given me some faith in our DNA. Well, that means a lot, sister. I owe you a lot of an explanation, and I'm, I don't know. I had some hard time thinking about you and whaling those spawns. We're going after you, watching them skaters get their fangs on you. I am with the same at the time. Yeah, you know what? Explanations come when they, they're like flowers.

They blossom when it's like the right temperature and weather. It's really great when the dust mother brings siblings to you. Why are you putting your shirt? Right. Yeah, I gotta say, I mean having fun being into the dust mother, but that was just out of nowhere. This is what I'm talking about.

You lead with the charm, but it's all evangelism. There's only two people who ask you to have faith in this. All right, everybody. And it's fucking priests and colonists. You're a fucking clown man. Did I take it? All right. All right.

Just pat him on the butt. Proud everybody. Proud everybody. You know what? I'll stand here and if anything goes wrong, I'll go after these three spawn here. Perfect. Yeah.

Moonshine, you misty-step up to the balcony and we can pincer attack a little bit. Yeah, you see the spawn are not like looking directly up at the balcony, so you could do a stealth roll and it'll be against their passive perception. Ask per my brother's quest. I'm gonna wait till I hear the first shot and I'll just crouch on the belly.

Yeah, okay, sweet. Do you, what do you guys want to do with Balnor? Are you leaving him out here? Are you putting him in the bag? Leave him with coach. Okay, I think JV, do you want to hop in the, JV you want to hop in this act with me? Yeah, right.

Yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm gonna show you the ropes. Baby JV, you hop in that sack and, yeah, that's gonna be a light yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, And Bev, hop in the bag. Moonshine is waiting there with Balnor and Bortram. Dead Eye. Well, I'm gonna missy step up before I hear the, I wanna missy step up now. Okay. Go ahead and give me a stealth check then, Moonshine.

Oh, you know what, real quick, I wanna use minor illusion to make a bunch of those masks that the Revenants wear, like the Copper Mask. Yes, yes. So that it looks like Dead Eye has gone hunting and came back with a full stack of them. Okay, sweet. So Bev is in the bag with JV,

makes a bunch of these illusory masks to make it look like Dead Eye's coming back to bow with a proper bounty. Meanwhile, moonshine, go ahead and give me that, still check. It's gonna be a 14. Nobody sees you, believe it or not. The spawn are just kind of standing there robotic. They are under the command of Beaumont Gumrie, who is not the most perceptive or smart who is not the most perceptive or smart vampire that has ever lived. Munchine, as these guys walk around, you've already missed you stepped up, so you see what's going on in here.

You see Beaumont-Gummary. You had never seen him before, but he looks kind of like Whalen, except where as Whalen was very well preserved and fancy, Beaumont-Gumm Bow is all strung out. He's like shirtless under his red smoking jacket. He looks to be like sweating. His silver hair is all stringy and frayed. You see that there is already a young man's body on the ground in the room. And you see that he is currently going at the neck sucking the blood of

that girl Sandy who you saw earlier in the night. I am going to bite my tongue out of faith from my brother and even though he hates faith, I'm just gonna put faith in dead eye and say I really want to go in and say this girl right now but I'm just gonna assume that, I'm just gonna put faith in dead eye and say, I really wanna go in and say this girl right now, but I'm just gonna assume that that, I'm just gonna wait for that sound of the bullet. Sweet, so dead eye and the little guys in the bag. Um, dead eye you walk right into the red fin. It is almost a sun up and vampires, even though there's enough cloud

coverage that it doesn't give them direct sun damage, they don't like to be out in it. It's unpleasant for them, even if it doesn't deal direct damage. So you see a lot of people are filing out, but there still are a couple vampire spawn down here. And a few mortals that are looking like super hungover, either they just drank a ton and nobody drank their blood because they were annoying or something like that,

or people who have had their blood sucked and are maybe shells now. You do see amongst the kind of just like nameless dumb party vampires that you either recognize as just being like dumb fuck boys. You do see Langston, kind of like one of the messenger boy guys, is sitting at the bar and kind of clocks you as you walk in. Cool, I'm gonna do the risky cowboy thing.

I'm gonna swing by Langston and with the sack over in my shoulder, I'm just coming in with a bounty and I'm gonna go Hey, they're Langston Scarlet and well and got misted they're calling for people back at the manor open the crimson house Go ahead and give me a persuasion check Oh shit, that's gonna be a 24 pretty pretty day good You see Langston does a double take Are you are you fucking serious man? I'm drunk right now. Hey man You do what you want and he's and I was gonna keep walking

Shots as fucking people came in the goddamn biz God damn it fuck me fuck me fuck me You see Langston starts to walk out I Reach a mage hand out and pat him My ribs clatter a little bit nervously My ribs clatter a little bit nervously. You walk up the stairs and you see like earlier when you were visiting Bo, there are two vampire spawn outside of his room. Dead eyes gonna walk up and nod to both of them. I have a word with Mr. Montgomery.

You see they look at you, they nod and then one of them lifts their hand out and knocks on the door and you hear bow from inside you hear like a shuffle like a moving of bodies what what the fuck do you want? Got a bunch of brass masks out here and I want to collect my bounty. Oh you gotta be fucking kidding me. Bow comes over opens up the door. You see this strong attitude even more fucked up then before, blood running down his cheeks. You see this girl laid out on the bed. He motions for you to come in, he closes the door. Cool. As I'm walking in, can I turn to the two spawn and I just want to be like,

hey, Langston wanted me to tell you guys that I was here. If you want, I just want to go get him. And I'm going gonna just walk into the room and close the door. Okay, sweet. And I'm gonna walk in, look at him. Sandy is still alive. Sheep's dead, still be breathing, yeah. Great. I'm gonna look at Bo and I'm going to set the bag down,

reach a hand in, grab that mask, take it down, and I'm gonna be like, hey there pal, rate him and weep, and I'm gonna throw the illusory mask to him. And while it's in mid-airair I'm gonna pump him full lead I'm gonna hit him with Reba. This is gonna be the first Remember that D6? Hell yes. Oh hell yeah He's just like wait what the fuck? I like one of the the, I'm like, I want him to get out of the mess and then his hands are up.

He like, yeah. Like boom, good. Here's Reba, 22 to hit, super hits. Okay, so this is gonna be doubled sneak attack. I mean, as soon as I hear it, can I kick in the door and... You're like the window?

Yeah, because I'm on the balcony and I'm like needing to hear the thing. I'm waiting to hear the thing. Can I like kick in and take an attack as well? Yeah, I would say the time it takes you guys to roll out of the bag. You guys will need to roll initiative, but I'll say MoonChine can get in there. 42 radiant damage on the first attack. We're gonna throw Reba on the back with a free object interaction. We're gonna draw Luan And this is gonna be yeah, you just you throw the fucking mask up blow into them

Just like a bunch of his chest explodes out Oh, what the fuck man? And then you just that's a nat 20 And I'm gonna regain a fucking grit point. Oh That feels good. Okay, we give him dice And that's gonna be 10 17 7 is 24 plus 6 is 30 damage on the next

Seven is 24 plus six is 30 damage on the next Tee! I'm the next attack. So boom, 10 thick, Lewin, plan. And that's gonna be my surprise round. Moon Shine, you get a surprise round as well. Okay, he's still standing? Yeah, yeah. All right.

Well done. Hey, man. That was a 21 hit. It does. Okay, well it's not going to be like. So Moon Shine on the second kicks in the door from the other side. I'm picturing a piano player in the corner just being like, oh no! Yeah, I bust in. I've been pocketing herbs from his balcony herb garden

What do you say here that I bust in? Hand him for 15 and then spores and for six White Fucking hurt already. That's how we do it down my grip. I'll say we're not even gonna You're born in a stump, I think so. Rather than rolling all of these NPCs, I'm gonna say Bortrim and Balnor get a surprise round on the spawn downstairs.

So you hear them engaging downstairs. You hear on Bortrim yelling about the light and the dusk mother. As he burying discreetly attacks these vampire spawn because he doesn't know how to do stealth. Everybody roll initiative now. Everybody's in this room. You guys roll out of the bags.

Oh, hell yeah, not 20. Hey, go. 21. I have a 21 as well. 18. So that is 24 for me. Bo also did good, but not as good as JV. Are you ready?

Oh, now I'm in a rage. All right, so, I'm quite mad. Wow, the barbarian always has to say that he's in a rage. You're still, you're still smiling. I'm displeased in general. You're grinning from ear to ear. Yeah, honestly. The fuck is that?

The wrinkle pattern on your face suggests a lifetime of smiles. Yes, I was always having a nice time. And then I roll out of the bag, swinging my ax. X. Swing my X. I'm reckless attacking, so that's a 26. Sweet super hits and super hurts. 21 damage to the first one.

Geez, he's looking very hurt, but still standing on quite mad so we'll swing again 22 hits jv jv fucking rolls out of the bag 13 13 damage, okay good rolls is quite hurt. You made our friend lift Quite hurt. You made our friend Mift. Fucking weirdos in the bag talking weird weird ass shit. Normally he's chuffed, but now he's Mift. I'm getting the fuck outta here. The shit is weird.

You see Bo, he got an initiative 23. He is going to turn into a bat. And start flying the fuck outta there. Yeah, right. Let me see how far he can get. Is it Bates? Okay, Jesus, he only flies 30 feet away. He's trying to just fucking fly out there.

He's here to get as a fucking bat. Target practice, dead eye. That is unbelievable. That is dead eye start. dead, I start off. Okay, we're gonna do bonus action. I can't think of a worse person for this to be next. Yeah, we're gonna do a bonus action. Yeah, this is gonna be bonus action

hide to attack from stealth. Stealth, that's a 19. That's gonna be a 28 stealth check. Cool. And I am going to spend a grit point to make this a violent shot. That's gonna be a 27 to hit. Super hits.

Yikes. It's 30 damage on the first attack. Dead high. finished this bad. There we go. Wait, I was born it. Yeah, I see eyes born it. Find his head on it. Uh, I look over at you and say,

oh, you want me to do a little dinner special? Yeah, do the dinner special. Let's get some wings. Woohoo. And flaming bullet streaks out of my gun. That's cool as hell, this is spout fucking rules, moonshine. And I'm going to, because I'm sure he's like flew off the balcony, so I'm going to rip my gun hand off and throw it out the window to catch the dead, and bat body and nut air,

and skitter back and bite the fucking head off. Bite the head off and briefly, briefly turns the ash turns to foe. He goes like, what the fuck man? Then he completely turns the ash and his con. Our turn is to mistrace him. I would like to go to Sandy. Okay, yeah, you see she's like barely breathing. She's on the bed.

Who's the other guy in there? Is he a vampire or was he a... Oh, he's just a kid. Who's... Yeah, you go over to him. He's super dead. I'll just do a second level. Okay, he's dead.

Oh no. Second level cure wounds on Sandy. Okay, can I revivify him? Potentially. I mean, I don't want to die. Well, I guess, okay, Bev, go ahead and give me an insight check as you like, run up on them. That's only going to be a 12.

You can kind of tell that he's been dead longer than a minute. Okay. So I go up to Sandy and I say, Sandy, you've been worshipping false gods. I'm here to show you the lukewarm lot of Malora herself Tell her about the dust mother No, maybe later. This one decision. I like it. Yes, yes We're talking about the dust mother. No, no, no the mudmother is coming through. Yeah, that's true forget dust

We got mud and then I am and give her a muddy embrace for 17 hit points. You heal Sandy, and you see she sits back up. She looks mighty confused, and you see she has this kind of glazed look in her eyes. And she goes, she is fucking. Oh, who are you? Is she a shell or a stone? It would appear, she is fucking high. Who are you? Is she a shell or a stone? It would appear that she is a shell.

Oh, just enough of dumbass. What a greater restoration helper. I don't have one. Probably not a greater restoration, but like an awakened or something. I don't have any fifth level spells. Okay. Sandy gum with us. You're gonna have an okay life. All right. Yeah, I could do that. You're gonna learn how to make soup in the weirdest way possible.

I'll be happy. I'll act soup. Uh huh. Should we just take her to the end? No. Well, if there's a wake in, I can awaken her. I just need to sleep. So I can just talk my spells if you do want to do You don't have to do it right now like she's not gonna die tomorrow All right, let's put her in the hard pod basement Wait no hardwarn all eat her He's vampire okay, we'll make another basement

We can just drop her off in that house everyone just think she's a shell I think she'll probably just go home if she's a shell. There's plenty of shells here in town I don't think it might be a smart idea to bring her to where we're going. Okay, all right, Shell. Go home, do your thing. I'll deal with you later. All right, I think I remember where home is. You see, she stands up and walks out of the room.

I tried to help her. Yeah, I don't think anyone deserves that fate, but she was being a real, a real meanie to us. Yeah, no, she didn't make help in her fun. But hopefully we can come back around to her, but we got bigger fish to fry for them. Let's bounce. Let's go to our little shell house.

Sweet, grab some vampire teeth for us all to wear, like cool vampire hunters. Sweet ass. Great. So I'm guessing you guys, like, kind of. We look great with things. Oh, thanks. Thanks. How do we get many compliments back in Bahumiya? Great. So I'm guessing you guys like kind of great with things. Oh, thanks

But we get many compliments back in Bahumia Girlfriend back in Bahumia. Oh, no, no What's your life like back in Bahumia? It was sad. It was depressing. What's sad? Well Jeff has really done wonders for you Yes, where did you live? What was the house that you lived in like not really a house as much of a It was more of a stone a stone the house that you lived in like? Not really. A house is much of a stone. A stone, if you will. You lived in a stone. In a stone, just around a bunch of stones. Oh, what about my brain?

What did you do when it rained? Yeah, I didn't met her. I was always in a rage. My friends and family kept me in a rage my entire life. Dear God. Yes, I was always angry. So your life was you asleep on a series of stones in-raged at all times. Yes, when I was awake, I was killing, robbing, pillaging, and when I was asleep, I was tossing

and turning in a fever dream that I wanted to die from. But he is nice. It feels nice. It's quite nice. It's not trying to know that someone can have a life as a Revenant and not totally be miserable. Yeah. I kind of look at dead. And quite please. All right, nice. It's quite nice to know that someone can have a life as a Revenant and not totally be miserable. Yeah. I kind of look at that. I'm quite pleased.

Alright, Liam. Why don't you take it? I'm sorry. I don't know that I'm a Re, I don't fully know what I am, but I know that I am not going to get my little lockstep along with all the paper with Shoddy. Oh, we're off to church. Ding ding. That's not me.

Why? It's work is so well for JB. What are the best things in my life? Be killed by a cricket. Oh, you're gonna make me cry again, JB. True, those people spread joy wherever they go. So I'm gonna say you guys probably hop out the back because you know that Bortram and Balnor

took care of those guys out there. Anybody downstairs who's coming up, you guys have already scooted out of there. So you guys head over to Hard One House. You hear him pounding on the wall downstairs, just like having a temper tantrum. Well, you're still making the rear noises, but he's a vampire. Hey, buddy. I think I pour a little, I Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy.

Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy.

Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy.

Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy. Hey, out of that for him. I just something. Yeah, we can grab a bird form. Okay. I love birds. Yeah, I'll go outside and try and thorn with us a bird. Okay, sure. You're a druid. I'll say just do a nature check to like lure a bird to you. Can I specifically lure a bird who is not contributing to this world?

Yeah, you can look for a real shithead bird. Yeah, Yeah, go ahead and just give me a nature check to find a shit head bird. Bird that cheats on its taxes. Shout out to two crew at six. You find a really diligent bird. Oh no. It's like picking up a worm to bring to, you just know it has a family. Just by the way, that is acting.

And instead I pivot and I thorn with a worm and give it to the bird and then come back in and say I don't know Skies are clear can find anything What he wants to do So furious that he can't be with his girlfriend scarly. He's so hungry. Someday. There's no birds. He's just have a raging frat boy in the basement Always punch so many holes in the drywall My knuckles man Oh, he's punched so many holes in the drywall. Oh!

Looking broke my knuckles, man. Is there anything we can do for him? Bortram, dead eye, what do you think? No, I think not until we get rid of Scarlet Permit. All right. Then at least till just be a regular old vampire which, uh, a puzzle maybe or something? I'm gonna put it out there.

I can give him some reading. I do have a bobble on me for the desk mother. I think it might be time to talk a little strategy because about the puzzle. So what I was gonna say is maybe we'll talk about the strategy and if you wanna get a puzzle, you can sort of go give it to him. Okay, would you like like a babbling brook

or like a glater on this? I'm so good. I'm just like fucking girlfriend. Just a little worried about the ticking time, you know. So puppies, all right, I slide a puppy puzzle under the. All right, so here's a deal. We've taken out three of the Monk Umries. There's four of the kids left.

But they're still in their coffin, so we still got to steal the deal. Still got to steal the deal, but I don't know if y'all need a rest or I'll be lovely I think that unless we unless we had an easy target now I don't I don't know what the Montgomery compound is gonna be like tonight I Can tell you in the past when we've tried to do raids and stuff back when we could still come back

from being dealt, quote unquote, killing blows from them. They didn't keep that much help around the house. Daddy doesn't love non-pure blood vampires. They're quite confident in their own abilities. The old man might be getting a little paranoid. Considering that three of his kids got missed it tonight, it might be different, but I think our number one problem with the Montgomery compound is the Montgomery's themselves. First on my list, once I come out my trance is I'd like to seal the deal on Scarlett so we don't got to worry about basement boy. Cell or feller if you will. Well we have not been so so we've gone around back behind the Grimhawk Manor before and there is a graveyard there but we've only run into Whites. We haven't come across any kind of crypts.

So my guess is that it's under the Manor itself, that we would need to actually go inside to get there. So I think if you are trying to get to Scarlet, you're going into the, you know, the tomb of the whole family practically. I reckon we're going to have to tango with a bunch of very powerful vampires there and these skaters are going to mean business and we come knocking on their front door. I think that two sides of this coin we're about to flip are we knock every one of these skaters into oblivion and then we can take our sweet time moseying around and destroy in their coffins and unmaking them or the flip side would be, we all say goodbye there

in the manner together. Well, I don't like that. I prefer option one myself. I vote option one. Yes, Lamb me too. But y'all, I mean, Bev, tell me that your priority isn't making sure that we kill Scarlett, because I know that we'd be putting ourselves

in a bunch of danger, but at least we could free hard one. I think that's obviously our end goal. How we get there, I think we should take a measured approach to try and maximize success. Okay. If things start looking dire, then I might just make a beeline for her crypt. Let's make a pact. You know, we spilled a lot of blood, but let's spill some for a purpose. I'll pick my finger again All right, I'm mashed my blood against his. Yeah, I don't know what any of this means, but it's got the same I look like blood magic and I do not approve it all right, you know what I like to you before but I was pretty pretty good Take a knee everybody take a knee here. No blood

You know what? You know what? Take a knee. Everybody take a knee. All right. No blood may be. I take a knee. He's gonna get the thank you. All right.

I'm gonna fucking weigh on taking a goddamn knee. She's taking knee dead. All right. It's bad teamwork. It's not about the team, not about the, you know, the God. All right. Shit for cockass. All right.

That's your right. All right. Well, I only need four hours of trans. So if we want to, if anyone else, if, you know, like dead eyes fell a crack, if we want to do any kind of recon. I slapped the eye out of my head and put my hand off. You can always send this little fella out there

to do some recon if we need to. Oh, I do have beast bond. That's not a beast though. Nevermind. It's kind of a beast. Sometimes it does stuff on its own that I don't really reckon. Really?

Yeah, it's still, it acts like me, but I can't always anticipate what my hand and eyeball are gonna do when I take them out. Does it ever like play a piano by itself? It sure does. It plays real funky ragtime stuff, not to my taste, but that's what the hand likes. I would like to see that.

Yeah, I kind of of please. Yeah I think we got like 10 minutes. There is a piano there. Alright I want to worry y'all that pianos in the shadow fell can only play minor key. So that's just something to be heard from me. I love to dance. I would not have paged you as a dancer. I know I So, yeah. So you were in a rage all the time. Yes. Sleeping on stones. Yes. And dancing.

Well, I found dancing down here in Shadowfield. Ha, ha, ha. It's really turned his life around the past month. I'm so� to catch him that I didn't know I had. Yeah. Your life is so hot. Yeah, I'm gonna, I'm gonna have to get you to tickle them Ivers because I would love to see JV move.

Mm-hmm. All right, a little out there, a little look-ramp or a piano around here. Yeah, there's a dusty old piano in here. I'll take out new Betsy. Oh, I'll fall on my flute. Pop the hand off, pop the eyeV. Like a floating little foot dance. It's just the Adam's family song, right? Yeah, and you hear, um,

dun dun dun. Yeah. JV's clicking along. You hear a hard one freaking the fuck out downstairs. Shut up. I'm begging around. I'm like fucking anter, it's bringing me to my wife! I'm begging around.

Maybe we'll be giving some red gatorade. That worked for Ulfgar. All right, is it bedtime? I think I need to get some holy energy back. Unless you head on man-to-head. Is anyone really hurting because I can give you a cure wounds before we sleep, but presumably everyone old. JV's river dancing. Wow. JV seems to be because I can give you a cure wounds before we sleep, but presumably every one of them. J.V.'s river dancing. Wow. J.V. seems to be good spirits. I'm not gonna worry about him.

If everyone's good, then I think I'm just gonna drop my top and trance. I'm going to set up my eyeball in my hand, like on a windowsill hiding hiding behind like a lace curtain, just kind of watching the street outside. Okay. And Dead Eye is going to pull up a chair, eyeless and handless, but just pull it up right in front of the door with the musket pointed at the door and just sit in it facing the doorway.

Hell yeah. Don't do that. Boundar, do you want to do that in the back door? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think I'll be just as effective. I'm your father. Also, I need to sleep. Well, Boundar, you're amazing do that in the back door? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think I'll be just as effective. Oh, you're awesome. So I need to sleep. Well, downward, you're amazing at sleeping in a chair. Oh, that, you're absolutely right.

I think what I lack in gun skills I make up for and sleeping in a chair. This is your moment to shine. I guess anyone who needs to do a normal sleep like a regular person, let's find a bed, huh? That's me. All right. J.V., you're not going to like strangle me

in your sleep, are you? No, no. Okay. You know, I'll train in the room with them just so bad feel safe. Thank you. Thank you. All right, cool.

I guess I find like a normal size bed. Does it smell like a revenant's been sleeping in here? It smells dusty. It smells super dusty. All right. This episode of NAD pod is 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. 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 khaki, but stretches so you get a way slimmer fit without having to sacrifice movement.

And trust me, you are gonna 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. So when the lower body battle begins and brother is forced to kick brother, make sure you are wearing bird dogs.

Okay, that's it for me. Go team pants and enjoy the show. You find that there is a shell just snoring in there just sleeping through the whole time. Oh, hey One big bad Everyone cuddle up with the shell My name's Bart. Hi Bart. We're sleeping with you tonight. Oh, great. This is a dream. Don't worry about it Yeah, one big beep one big bid One big bid. One big bid. One big bid.

One big bid. Oh, she goes, I'll go to one big bed. Dead eye, you have your eye out watching the street. You see the sun comes up. This very dark red, nearly dead star in the distance behind these black clouds, making it look like this, the landscape is all red. And I'm gonna go ahead and let me do some encounter checks to kind of see who walks by and what happens.

No, this is so scary. This is what it's like. It's like zombie apocalypse. This is like, I'm like, so dead eye, you're there, trancing, but sitting at the door, holding your gun. You see Langston and a crew of like six vampire spawn and like 15 whites walking like into the deeper into downtown. But past your guys house. Cool. I'm also just gonna say, just for encounter check purposes. I actually am un-injured

and don't need to sleep and regain everything on a short rest. So I think after an hour of just kind of like breathing, I'm not even breathing. Creaking? Yeah, after an hour of creaking in the rocking chair, he just goes still and that's how you know my rest is done. It's like stopped cooking. Yeah, the worm stopped eating you for a second. The maggots skitter away. Get out of here, you maggot. King, did I? Did I? I'm gonna say, Bev's definitely still asleep.

I don't know if Revenants technically need to sleep, but I'm gonna say to get their stuff back dead, they're gonna need to rest. In my world, they do need to rest. So they're resting. Munchine, go ahead and give me a luck check to see if you've gotten your four hours yet before something happens. 10.

10, okay, I was gonna say 10 or higher. So this happens at around four hours. So Munchine, you kick out of your trance and you go up and join Dead Eye at the door. Dead Eye, go ahead and give me a perception check. Pressing down on a French press, putting some a quick water in each of the mugs. Make it quicky.

Yeah. Oh, you make it with crickery. Yeah. That's gonna be a 15 from me. 15, okay. You see some smoke coming up from like the direction of the church. Is Bortram still resting?

Bortram still resting, because he's got, he's a human, he's like a human variance, so I'm having them rest at night. Okay. You want cream? What's that? Cream?

Oh yeah, get it extra creamy. Yeah, okay, cool. Bortram's still resting, right? There's smoke over the church. Yeah, Bortram's resting, but I'll go wake him. I don't know that I'd bother Moonshine. I don't know what else there is to do. I'm Laura. Moonshine, you really gonna be able to help that girl? That Sandy girl. Yeah. If I got a day off, I can give her a spell and I don't know maybe she can do some good around here. I saw her in the room before she was a shell. I didn't say nothing. I didn't say nothing.

Well, I don't know that I would have changed my actions, but I appreciate your candor now. So what does it you do? All the other cricks are in Glade Home and you're out here with... Kid and the vampire downstairs and you're just wandering around doing what? Yeah, that's kind of a good question. Hahaha. Truthfully, I mean, I left the creek. I don't know, I guess you probably felt it too. I'm, well now I actually have answers as to why,

but you know, I always felt a little more, the creek is so innocent and wholesome, and I wanna do everything to protect it, but when I'm there, it doesn't feel like me. You know, so I think I justify it by just going out all over this world in the name of the Cric, rather than going home and living with Cric. So if I live with the Cric, I have to admit that that ain't my life for me. But if I'm going out and trying to defend their honor and their name, I can still feel connected to them and I don't have to admit that maybe they're not my... TRUE SPATE.

Does that make sense? More sense than you can understand. Okay. I don't know the cricks that innocent move, Shun. Really? The folk there are so sweet. Yeah, they're sweet, alright, but... I was about 50 years old.

I kept asking Cobb to show me how to fight. All I ever wanted since I was a young and in that time, my bag was to learn how to sling a gun. And what said, I wasn't ready. I wasn't ready to learn everything he knew. When Maribel came along and all the trouble started, I told Cobb, Crick needs me. I'd do anything to save the Crick. He looked at me and said,

he ain't ready, you don't got the heart for it. I went on into the woods and asked Melora for help. Just wanted to be strong enough to protect our own. She didn't answer. She wasn't listening. But the shadow fell. Shadow fell. Herd me just fine.

Yeah. I certainly understand that. Yeah. I certainly understand that. Laura's whole indifference thing, it's pretty fucking annoying. Hell yeah, this is true, it is. In any case, I understand, feel like you can't go home. Yeah. I got, I got Luann, I got my skills, I understand. Feel like you can't go home. Yeah. I got, I got Luann, I got my skills,

I got all the power you'd ever want to ask for a gunslayer and when I showed up to fight, Cobb and me, Ma looked at me and they said, I'd done wrong. They said I gave up something that wasn't mine to give up. And all I was trying to do was help. I still just can't believe Cobb wouldn't have taught you a little bit. Well, according to him, me giving up my soul for the power to defend that place was all

the proof he needed that I shouldn't have had that power to begin with. Well, I'm really sorry that the correct turn is back on you and that's what led you here. Yeah. If I've been there, I would've been your sparring partner. Oh, my God. He looks so painful whenever he's done. I'd been there, I would. You're a living thing. Ugh. And even if you're a dead thing, you know, I'm

Exambi's all the time. I'm afraid of death. There's something beautiful natural about it. No, you really know how to fill a fellas heart with oak. And I ain't felt that in a long time. Bring it in. Bring it in. Bring it in. Let's half add a one cup together.

That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. Alright. Alright, let's wait up Bortram. Alright, so we go wake up Bortram. Okay, you wake up Bortram.

He shoots up. Hey, what's going on? I think someone's going on at the church, so I think you should go find out what's going on. What, okay, okay, yeah. You see he gets up. He runs right out the door. You see he casts fine steed and this like black stallion magically shows up

and he starts fucking hoofing it downtown I'm gonna ask Bortrams getting ready to it's about to peel off. I say Bortram Is there any point to defend in the church? None of your remnants is there right now, right? He looks at you and he goes That's where their ashes go back. That's where they regenerate That's where their ashes go back. That's where they regenerate. Then they know you're gonna be there to defend it. That's why they usually don't mess with it. I've made a mistake by not being there tonight and you see he takes off.

We gotta wake up, Beverly and JV. Bed. Huh? Bed. Yeah. I need more sleep, how you feeling? I can go. Is it time? Do you wanna go? There's a fire down at the church. I'm already putting on my pants. Okay. JB, do me more time. I'm going to the church.

All right. All right. I'm sorry. I hesitated awake you guys. I wanted to give you sleep out and know what else to do. How much sleep do we get? It's about five hours. So I'll say you guys won't need like another long rest. You'll basically, if you take a short rest after this you'll get a long rest essentially So we'll be able to get our slots back. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. See you guys We don't have our slots yet. You guys don't have your slots yet. I will say is anybody Getting a steed or anything because Bortram got on a horse and ran along No, nope Okay, we wish if we're gonna get there long after he's already there. We should approach stealthily and ran along. No. No. Okay.

If we're gonna get there long after he's already there, we should approach stealthily. Good call. Okay, I don't think we should use password trace yet. JV, what are you doing? It's sprinting. Okay. Yeah.

So JV's not going stealthy. You guys are all going stealthy behind him. That's a good idea. Yeah. So JV, you get there first You see that and you kind of know this that Bortram usually even though it's not the you know wisest strategy Bortram usually Sleeps at the church so that these minor fuckhead guys don't mess with it

And the Montgomery's usually don't do their own dirty work So there's not really anybody strong enough to come fight you guys directly. But nobody was there tonight and they took advantage of it. You see the outside of it is in flames. The whole building is going up and you see in the distance as you start like rounding a corner you see a bortram as like kicked in the door and is like running inside. Okay let's run in and get those ashes. Sweet. Yeah. I'm gonna say everybody go ahead and give me investigate checks as you guys rush around the fire trying to map 20. That's fucking at 20. There's no vampires here. You do not see the vampires here anymore. Based on sort of the timeline of what Dead Eye saw,

Dead Eye saw those guys marching, like an hour or so later saw smoke coming up, they like towards the place and fucking pieced. So yeah, this whole big fire, Dead Eye, you just like pure luck and just like fucking Elvin eyesight and maybe by the grace of the dusk mother You find I have a magic eye specifically for purposes such as these Teamwork you see a knocked over

Earn there was like a beam that fell and scattered a bunch of stuff, and there's fire everywhere, and it's chaos, but you do see an Earn that has fallen on the ground, and only a few of the ashes have gone out of it. So salvageable, salvageable it seems. Dad, I was gonna point it out in one for it. Sweet, Dad, I runs over and grabs it. What did you get in your investigate check?

I got a four. You got a four, okay. Cool, okay. Bortram also did very bad on his investigate check. So looking up it's fire. It just keeps getting worse and worse and worse And you guys have only found one earn. What are you guys doing? I just run in because I have resistance fire You have resistance. So you take half damage a matter I run in. Okay, but everybody everybody's inside right now You see that it's burning up, burning up. I'm gonna say DC 15 investigate check to find.

So you found one earn to find another one. It's DC 15 investigate. Everyone rules with disadvantage because it's a Bortram fails, you scramble around, trying to find it, Balnor fails. Also failed. Fail. Shout out to the two crew. That or Fails. Also failed. Fails.

Shout out to the two crew, that's a not one as well. Fucking yikes. Yeah, beams start falling down the fires everywhere. What? Can I cast Ice Storm to try and stop the fire? You sure as hell can. Yeah, we'll do that then. Go ahead.

I cast Ice Storm. Sweet. Mochai, what level spell is that? Fourth level. Oh, Jesus Christ. Mochai, you fucking put this fire out in seconds. You see you call upon the powers that be, whether you're angry at Melora

and you want it to be somebody else. I just fucking call myself. I'm so sick everyone else. Hell yeah. You call on yourself. You see the black clouds part above you and ice begins to rain down, which melts, turns into water.

And you see the fire quickly goes out. You see that the church is destroyed and Bortram looks devastated, looks around, is able to find another one of the urns. And I'll do a pure luck check to see if you guys can find the third one. I'll just say tenor higher, the third one's there. A roll in front of the table. Yeah, or somebody else rolled for me.

Tenor higher. Tenor higher. Seven. Okay, so let's roll and see who's earned and did not get found. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that.

I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that.

I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don't know how to do that. I don a 15 Rosa. Rosa got a five. So Rosa's earn is lost.

No, that is tragic. And yeah, you see the church is all like destroyed and charred and Bortrom is just devastated. Bortrom, I'm so sorry. You know, it ain't your fault, you know we There ain't no coming there ain't no coming back anymore anyway We got a we got to beat the monk ummeries here and now this is why we're here. We're here to

Defend shadow fell the Duskmother is merciful. I'm sure she knows she knows that Rosa was trying to make good was trying to do good I'm sure she'll rest in peace. I know she will. I know she will. I pray she will. And you see, Bortram falls to his knees and starts praying to this half kind of cockeyed statue

standing in the broken church. I'll take a knee next to him. She was a good kid. She was a good kid. Creepy as hell, but yeah. Bortram, I just want you to know that whatever happens We're all proud of you. I appreciate you y'all brought hope to this place I know it doesn't seem like it right now, but we'll get them we'll get them back for this and we'll build a Build a church twice as big. Yeah

Build a church twice as big. Yeah And did I'll help us build it. Yes, and you will build it out of something that won't burn down Yeah, I'm sure did I'll show up to the pot luck, but maybe not be there for the building That will be at the pot look I can't believe I'm about to say this board from If by some horrible stroke of fate. I am not gone from this Extremely bad town in the next 24 hours. I will help you rebuild your church. That means a lot. You're a better man than I took you for. Well, it's a backhanded compliment, but I'll take you. Well, you work hard. Come on. I want you to

know this. I'm going to do it because you're a good man and it matters to you, not because of your dust mother. I appreciate it because as is the dust mother's teachings, you got to let people grow and become good people, become the real sales. And I think the first step to that is to admit, you know, what's wrong with the situation. And I think we're rebuilding. I think that's what's happening here. Well, praise me to the desk, my favorite. Yes. OK, so we all feel how we feel. Amen to that.

I mean, I hope for your sake that you get out now even more so. I know it's been a while since I've said it, but let me just reiterate what's constantly running on the loop in the back of my head. This town is bad. I've got to get out of here. Bortren, would you leave this town or do you feel a duty here?

Truth be told, the way the Revenants work with the Duskmother is that we're given sentences essentially. So as opposed to a normal Revenant who would have you know, have a task that they need to complete to them be a piece, they have a sentence that they serve. So you might need to spend 10 years in shadow felt defending humanity. And then you get to make peace with your original deity or maybe you just be a piece. I served my sentence a long time ago. I just believe in the cause.

You're a good man. Yeah, that's, that's integrity. I don't think anyone can take that from you. I think y'all are, y'all are good eggs. Y'all are real good eggs. Everybody bring it in, everybody take a knee. All right, can we all say? Are we gonna hug and take a knee at the same time?

We're gonna have a hug. We're gonna have a visual for sure. Yeah, can we all like take a knee, but then like, maybe give each other like a good hustle, butt pat like in a circle? Yeah, perfect. That would do a lot for me. Sweet ass. Yeah.

Ha, ha, ha. Now unfortunately, the urns do need to be here. This is sacred ground for us. So it's not like I could have brought them along with me. So for the time being, I guess I'm going to bury the other two for when they come back. They don't need to breathe. So they might freak out a little bit, but uh, do your thing. What would it be? Help to you if I tried to hide them somewhere? Yeah, maybe we just hide them. That way, if they pop out and we're all in

trouble or capture whatever, maybe they can hook it on up. Yeah, I'm not going to get a great even note in the earn. Okay Babe you won't help me find a little hide-and-place around here somewhere absolutely. Yeah, I Start I sort I start divining a good spot I have a slight of hand or I have stealth whatever whatever you'd like to use and I use if you want to use a help action Hmm I mean I have deception. Oh I got a 17 in deception I Got a 30 slight of issues. Okay. Yeah between between the two of you. I'll say like Bortram

Bortram kind of explains how the I'll say like Bortram. Bortram kind of explains how the Revenants work here, which is that they're a little bit like the vampires in that they kind of return to their resting place, they turn to ash, and then they come back into their urn, and then they reform out of it. So you guys kind of use that logic,

you guys like bury the urns up so that like just the very top is showing, so that when they reform the ashes will come out and they should be okay. I think while we're doing this I'm explaining to Dead Eye that this is the proper green teen latrine maneuver. Oh that sounds pretty interesting. Yeah it goes down in there, it returns to the earth. So you've had a whole survivalist education, that's great. Absolutely, yeah, it hasn't been too much use of late but we're always surviving in one way or another.

You know the trick could use this kind of structure because a lot of the survival skills that are learned are learned kind of ad hoc in the time out bag. I left a lot of pamphlets there With some information on an organization. I like to call the Cricketeers. So I think well good hands I mean a pamphlet's good for a possum, but I don't know for a Crick Oh, don't worry. I used pictograms. Oh, good, yeah, that's gonna be the thing to do. Yes, sir. All right.

So, should we sleep here? I think let's find another hidden spot because they know what this place is. Yeah, that sounds good. All right, all right. Yeah, you guys just find another house, nearby. Just kicking another like broken door. I think we're all bound or in the chair on this one. Yeah, you guys just find another house nearby, just kicking another broken door. I think we're all ballin' or in the chair on this one.

Yeah, everybody. I don't need it, so I'm full on watch. Got it. Cause I'm arrested. So if you're full on watch, I'm gonna keep my eye in hand and be just rifle in a chair by the door. Right. It comes in sweet.

Let me go ahead and roll one encounter check. It's not going to be very long and they already fucks. Although I suppose I could trans. I could do my zealots trans. You could just to get your one spell back. You can do that. Nice. You guys are able to get the rest of your sleep. And you guys get all your stuff back. And you guys see the the blood star this red sun is already kind of starting to set and it's only been up for a few hours. But that's how you know it's like a lot of time. It's like 2pm. 2pm and so we've got the devil. So you guys got like eight. These guys had to rest for like eight hours

so you went to bed at like six or eight. It's like one. All right so we have you know a little over 12, 13 hours and like that. Yeah so I mean let's just kick off this raid huh. Let's do it. Let's go hunting. JV you need breakfast or anything? Oh, yes. I love some. OK, I'll route around in the fridge, see what's left. Cool. I'm going to roll and see if just like a shell lives here. One does. So there are actual.

There are actual eggshells in there. There are a lot of eggshells. Just eggshells. Just eggshells. Yeah, they're blender. There is not a blender. No. There are a lot of There is not a blender, no. There are a lot of egg shells,

way too many egg shells, like ship. So just egg shells. Pretty much just egg shells. Where else is there like any condiments? You see a, it almost looks like they tried to save some soup in a plate. I take the egg shell and I scoop up some soup and I give him soup in a shell.

It's not that bad. Yeah. give him a soup at a shell. It's not that bad. Yeah. Anyone else needs soup in a shell? Yeah, I'll give it a go. Okay, I'll give it a go. You said it, a shell lives in the house. Yeah, when we come in, I'm just gonna go, hey there friend, we also live here with you.

Yeah, yeah, then I heard it. Hey, why do you have so many? I understand that, that makes sense. Why do you have so many shells? I like eggs Why do you you know what that's great good for you? Everyone's ready. I say let's do it. What's going to do? Let's head it out We're heading off the rims and hails gang sweets, and how are you guys? Approaching there all right now is probably probably the time to use pass without trace right so here's here's a thing that

Dead I would know and Bortram would know these vampires and kind of the way that they act not to say that there's not A lot of security and stuff, but this is less like trying to break into a castle and more like less like trying to break into a castle and more like trying to like get to the Kardashians, but the Kardashians are all super powerful. Does that make sense? It's not like there's no like fucking like huge crossbows out in like 90 million guards. It's like, yeah.

These obviously don't watch the show. Right. Right. Yeah, people are breaking in all the time. Yeah. Look, I mean, so when we get up there, I mean, the mountain gumries are in charge of everything, but they're also monsters, so they don't think like squishy, soft human nobility would where they need to have a lot of higher guards.

They're infinitely more powerful than the things that work for them more than the spawn and certainly more than humans. So they've been walking around for eons thinking that they're untouchable. So, and they're partially right. So I think that we, if we're stealthy and we sneak through the hills, we go around the city, we'll be able to just let ourselves in through the back door, but then we're going to be fighting a handful of the most powerful monsters in the shadow field. I see. It's kind of baller to be so strong that you don't need any

sort of security. Yeah, it's an interesting way to look at sort of top down hierarchy because, again, normally, you know, in a society sort of ownership and class is the means by which people assert dominance. But here there actually is a tangible supernatural advantage that is held by those in charge. Are you sure you've never read a pamphlet? Hmm? Oh no, I was in Norgie once and this guy who was railing me, he was just going on and on about sort of how this works. Okay, yeah. I had a really keen eye for sociology.

And you know, you learn a lot, meeting people, being an adventurer is a life that any person should be grateful for. Good lesson. Yeah, absolutely. Let's go ball on the ballers. Let's ball on the ballers. Sweet. So, how are you guys proceeding stealth-wise? So gather up,

we're doing some pass without trace. I think I have, well, you've got good stealth too though, Data. I mean, I think we just were in the lead. So you guys are able to kind of sneak and weave between the different buildings and stuff, hide and alleys. The two crick-elves are kind of leading the way. And you guys reach the end of uptown, and you begin walking up the Crimson Hills. And these roads that kind of wind up the mountains aren't used that often, except by like, you know,

very dumb vampire spawn and whites because the vampires themselves can either turn into mist or they can turn into bats and they're taking the easy way down. So you guys are kind of able to just jump out of the way, hide behind rocks as you see like whites and spawns and everything just like coming down. As you guys make your way up you do see that there are all these homes jutting out of the cliffs but they look more like tombs. You see all these

like pillars and then these like rectangular like doors that are open and just kind of dark. Muzzle limbs. Yes so it's like the Hollywood Hills for vampires. Just like all of these fucking tombs everywhere. That's the freaking difference, right gang? Uh, and you guys, The Hollywood's on dead. Yeah, bar. While it's daytime out, there's really not that many people up,

but as the sun begins to set, as it gets to late afternoon, you finally reach Grimhawk Manor. You see this beautiful old Gothic mansion, three stories tall. It's built of this blackened stone. There are beautiful stained glass windows and tall spires. You can see a glow from behind the windows like someone is home. There is an iron gate out front with a small Raven Statue atop it and like a small courtyard of just like green grass.

Before we proceed any further, I wanna go ahead and cast aid on moonshine, balnor, and I guess dead eye, because the other two people are, you know, revenants and potentially can come back. But essentially, I'm gonna cast this at second level, so they just get five extra hit points for their maximum for the day.

Ooh, that's weird. You see, Thank you, young Beth. Is that temporary hit points or five extra to our max? To your max. Cool. So you see, Bortram speaks up as you guys start to get close

and he goes, I'm not quite sure the right way to approach this. I can tell you that we have gone around back before and there is a graveyard there with a lot of whites. Now the whites aren't nearly as powerful as the Montgomery's but there are things back there. Let me just knock down the door Yeah, let's go

Yes, let me share about the JB I'm quite upset I'm quite upset, dude. Why don't we just go around the front then I'm enraged There's no sense in in the learning anybody in from the back. Yeah, let's kick a doorbell down there throat Or can we just like hop to one of these second floor? Are there balconies? Yeah. Maybe we just hop to a balcony. Let's do it.

Sounds great. All right. Let's go away. You see, okay, so you see, you guys are basically in front of this iron gate hiding off to the side a little bit lower, because it's kind of at the top of the mountain. And you see on the second floor,

there's a balcony facing outward, and there's the front door down on the first floor. And you see that there is a third floor, but you don't see a balcony. Second floor balcony? Second floor balcony, why not, right? Let me know how you guys proceed. Let's investigate.

The gate is, yeah, let's investigate the gate. I'll take a hell of action to give you. I just wanna make sure it's not like Ruby traps. Let's investigate the gate. Yeah, let's investigate the gate. I'll take a hell of action to give you. I just want to make sure it's not like Ruby Trapped. Shut up to the two crew. I got to get it. Okay, it's going to be 18. Bev, you walk up to the gate to give it a look and it...

...silly creaks open I think we are expected and whether we're playing into a trap or not it's probably too late shall we take a stroll might just be a bad security system good to be a way to look out of a JV I like your perspective got a look at the silver lining next might be on the fritz it's's true. God, Shadowfail looks good on you. Thanks. Good fit. All right.

Yeah, I guess we stroll in, huh? Yeah. All right. Let's do it. Just head down a squiggle, I guess. Sweet, you guys start walking through the main courtyard towards the house. I think I've got my rifle in hand. I mean, I'm as in combat as a non-combat character

in terms of work. It's like I am very resonant evil. You guys are one of the seven. I'm like, every single round, I'm delaying action to the next round, you know, like with the gun in my hand. Do we want to do the classic Misty Step to the balcony and drop a rope?

Yeah, that sounds good. Cool. Do you want a Misty Step? Or should I burn one? Sure, I'll do it. Do you want me to try to go through the front door? Is it a distraction? I think we should probably all be on the same level maybe.

Yeah, that's wrong. I appreciate that. I'll let's stick together. Okay, I'll Misty Step to the balcony and drop down a rope. Sweet, Mochine, you Misty step up. Go ahead and give me a stealth check. Net 20. You. You.

You. Ha ha ha ha. Mochade, you missed a step up to a balcony. And you are able to kind of hide over to the side so that you're not in the direct line of sight of the glass. And you're so, so quick. You turn and look at the window in the split second that you appear

as you expertly kind of hide to the side and you see this appears to be a little girl's room and you see a doll eyes looking out the window and you notice for split second as you like hide over to the side it was like looking for you. It like blinks. Well, I know what I'm killing first. Yeah, I took on the rope. Shake a leg, y'all. Over the reports, I'll be like, if there's enough space on the balcony for us all to get up there without the doll seeing, I vote for that.

If there's not, maybe we go in through the door. Would the doll have been able to see us coming in through the gate? Probably, right? Yeah. So we've been spotted. So we've lost the element of surprise. Yeah, okay. Then we should probably take out the security system then.

All right. So I guess maybe I attacked the doll. Okay, it's a window. Are you going to break the window? I don't know. I feel bad. I don't want to act without people being up here. I guess like I think I think I'm just going to cast lightning bolt on the doll. Okay, does it need

to make a deck save? Yeah, it does. Oh my god. What's the doll's decks? The doll I got it for. Okay, so the doll is going to take 25 damage and it will catch on fire. We're there other dolls in the room. There were a couple other ones. Moonshot doesn't have a great view on it right now, but turns around, casts a lightning bolt on this doll in the window. Glass shatters, and you see this doll is fucking electrocuted and catches on fire and fucking starts running out

Over the balcony and fucking just like starts flopping on the ground. Oh god, that's a fire hazard And you see it's just like flopping on the ground. It doesn't look like it's gonna take fire damage though Oh, yeah, it's like dead. It's just like being creepy as fuck like if you guys didn't know what was going on you guys just see and and on fire baby doll just on the ground flopping around. I'm up the rope. Yeah, I don't know what I just did. As you guys start climbing up this balcony, you guys have now have this shattered glass window. You do see more dolls in here, and you hear a music box playing like in the not so far distance,

and you hear like whispering. There's gotta be that petunia. Oh boy. Okay, all right, I get it. I got nomes here. Well, no, they just got fucking bad taste. These vampires. Oh, you get it. Some music box, your emotional affiliation with that

would be that that's cute and whimsical and filled with childhood. Pretty free. Wimsy, man. Your balanor, do not. I put my hands on his shoulders. These vampires are conning you on an aesthetic level. There's a doll that's on fire.

There's no, there is nothing inherently more dangerous about a flaming doll than there is about a goblin or a Manticore or any of the other shady back me up here man. Oh, yes, I hate no Yeah, I think I think we're all a bit shaken by the Teehee implies no, okay, well you gotta get ready for a lot of creepy shit They're gonna be asking you about tea time. They're gonna talk about gonna make you beautiful We're gonna talk about all kinds of creepy issues. These are vampires, so we got a skaters

like to play on class distinction and aesthetic juxtaposition. All right, all right. I clear the cobwebs off of Balmore. You can't even talk those on here. All right, let's do it. Let's go get you. Is the music box in this room?

It sounds like it's in a different room. So you guys kind of poke your head into this. JVV dance to the music box. Show me in a frame. River dance down the hall. So I'm so wide and so thick. So you barely hear me stumping because I'm that professional over the bandage on a stealth check as you River dance. Remember you get plus 10 to that too. It's a 29. So you can't even believe it. It's actually a 34 or something. Bortrim starts crying. So voting. You blissed by the dust mother or still. What do we see in this room? So yeah, so you guys enter this room and you see it's all like very pink and frilly and there are dolls everywhere.

There are many, many, many, many, many dolls. Can I do a perception check to see if any of, any other ones are alive? Yeah, go ahead and make a perception check. 25. 25. You do see one blank in the corner and you see one that was kind of in a pile of other dolls

like kind of turns to look at you guys. But before you guys make any decisions on what you're gonna do, the talking gets louder from the other room. You see that there is a door open to like some kind of living room or something here, and you see lots of candlelight like a deep glow and you hear a Sounds like a young woman talking to like a little girl and

You hear the little girl being like I want to be ready for when they come Oh, well, they're coming soon. They'll be here and we'll be all ready. Oh, your little dollies are being ready. I'm so proud of you, little sister. I mean, how much of this creepy shit we want to listen to. Let's lie to these people up. Yeah, let's do it.

Sweet. We're on a schedule. Do it. Yeah. So you guys are just sneaking into the living room? We want to take off these dolls or is that a distraction? I grab the bed spread from the bed and I toss the bed spread over the doll's eyes. Okay, and then I swing Rosalene like a bat on that bed spread.

Wait, you're gonna so wait you're attacking a doll? Okay, you'll get a surprise round on the doll. Man, we should always use this bed spread. Classic surprise. There's a bedspread. Classic surprise. There's a 14-hid the doll. It does. A hit of 419. 19.

Okay, the doll takes a lay around. You see Rosalene fucking slashes through this blanket explodes with fire and you see this doll once again starts shaking and screaming and you hear the little girl go we should go say hi All right, let's go. Let's go. I'm not gonna worry about putting up these dolls. I'm gonna rush in Yeah, let's do it. Teetime your crazies. Yeah, you guys Around the corner and you see this living room with wood floors, furniture is all pushed to the side against the wall, the floor is covered in strange hieroglyphics and words written in strange languages. There are candles placed

everywhere methodically and amongst the symbols and standing next to them surrounded by runes are all these living dolls. You see dozens of them. And you see a young woman appears to be in her 20s, but in that ageless vampire way with silver hair. She wears a conservative black dress suit. She has a little girl in her lap dressed identically. And as you approach, they stand up, and you see that they are, it touched to each other.

Oh, no, thanks. That each other. Oh no thanks. That their skin is grafted together and the older one wears the younger one like a baby Bjorn. Ah, quite devastating. Wow. That's a statement. And the little girl claps and she goes, I'm so excited to finally have guests. And that's where we'll end our session.

Oh, that is so creepy. So creepy. Oh my gosh. Whoo. I guess we gotta perform a Siamese operation. I got a Siamese operation, right? You're right. Yeah.

Honestly, lining up in a row like that has done me only favors. Yeah, I know, I always gotta think of that. The finding the dolls is so funny. It's just like the Nat 20, just like see a good doll, just like do a double take, just be like, where did you go? I'm a stupid fucking doll.

Prepare your action to kick a doll's ass. And then pretend fucking swords a doll. I'm the host being very, very fun guys. Well done. We got to talk about our battle strap, but we got to do it on the short rest. Yeah, guys, thank you for listening. Guys, this fucking mini arc is turned into a real arc,

Honestly, even if I fully don't have availability to come come back I can't let dead I go out like that I will kid whatever I have I will can't did I did I stop I'm doing like an even worse Southern impression that I usually do
