This is a Rooster Teeth production. Hello everyone, welcome to Tales from the Stinky Dragon. We are doing a Between the Tales episode as always. I am your Dungeon Master, Gustavo Sorolla. And I do not have an arrow to hit the party with today. Oh, no. He said, I am.

Oh, no. I'm reloading. I don't like that. You need to do, I don't care if we're doing behind the, Between the Tales. You still need your spooky voice. It really freaks me out when he was like, hi, I'm Gus.

Yeah, just like normal Gus voice. Very jarring. Welcome to Between the Tales. Thank you. Don't give us like a bunch of rhymes and alliterations. I'm your dungeon master, but I'm not a spellcaster. Hey. Hey, that's a rhyme.

Okay. There he goes. I'll tell you what. I don't have an arrow to hit you guys with. Introduce yourselves real fast. I'm sorry. Just to be safe. Okay.

No. Oh. Duality of man i'm barbara dunkelman and i play elga von breath the half elf vampire barbarian who maybe has something new to tell the group about what she has today on the details oh wow i'm blaine gibson i play chip painey and i'm a uh we'll do it are we leveling up i'm a tiefling rogue and i'm a level between levels i don't know okay all right uh i'm chris damaris and i play barney farn Farney the human cleric and I'm level 6 because we were leveling up before right smooth as butter

I think we're just sure if we're allowed to say that we leveled up before recording this no one's gonna get mad at you if you do we can we can edit stuff we can get rid of it it's more about like the audience and their like suspension of disbelief like do we say like oh we're getting level six and then we go yay you know i applaud your caution i applaud your care that's care

that's concern here's so much yeah you do and i'm john and I care too much about my character, Matty Confucius, who is an Aarakocran ghost monk. And I'm excited for our episode today. Yay! Nice. Well, since we don't have an arrow, I'm going to ask one question. And whichever one of you thinks you can answer it, raise your hand.

I can see everyone from my vantage point. And if you raise your hand, I'm going to, if you raise your hand, I'm going to call on you to try to answer the question. Oh, okay. Who can accurately and succinctly recall the previous episode in less than 30 seconds? John's hand went shot up. Okay, John, ready, set, go.

So in our last episode, we find ourselves back on Glurb where the Mould was brought out of, or came out of the Underglobula with us. And we were confronting this Phoenix who was trying to use the Mould. And the Mould's like, nah, you ain't going to use me, fool. And so then Eddie shows up. Ed, Ed, and Eddie. Yeah, Ed, Ed, and Eddie show up from the classic Nickelodeon show.

It's crazy. They tried to, he tried to be like, I'm the boss and the Sphinx, Sphinx. Dang it. 30 seconds. So did he accomplish it? I was doing good, right? I was doing good.

You started going on tangents with Cartoon Network and stuff. The reason I hesitated, because I was like, I don't know if I can do it in 30 seconds. It's a tall order. Can one of the other three raise their hand if they could take over from there? Blaine, hand up. Okay, so this Phoenix and Eddie

decide to get into a fight. This Phoenix supposedly kills Eddie. We have to fight this Phoenix and we're joined by Mould. We do a pretty good job and then I think ultimately this Phoenix passes away. Eddie comes back because this Phoenix has teleportation abilities.

So then Eddie then casts a curse on the mold and takes control of it. And we are left not knowing whether or not the mold will turn to Eddie or what. And, uh, it was a whole awful thing. The snail city was under attack. Hexel died. Time. You missed one thing. You forgot the dragon, the Vespervane.

Dang it. Also, it wasn't Hexel. It was the blob who died, not Hexel. Hexel's still alive? Yeah. Oh, thank God. Oh, thank God. It was Hexel's mom? I thought that was a joke. Progenitor? Progenitor. They use different terminology.

For bonus points, Chris or Barbara, do either of you know where Eddie was vanquished to temporarily by this phoenix? Vanquished to? Yeah. Vanished. Was it Vania? No, he mentioned where he came back from. We've been there. Oh, uh, uh, uh, Pyroa?

There it is, Pyroa. So no one was able to get the entire thing in 30 seconds. That's a tall order. I was keeping track here. And I think John got the most story beats in the 30 seconds. He got the most detail. Absolutely. Yeah.

So I get to go up one extra level than everybody else, right? Well, no, you do get a reward, though. Oh. You're going to get a feat. Or I should say Matide gets a feat. Hey. Matide will gain access to the keen mind feat. You can go ahead and add that to your character.

Wow, that's a big reward. Your character sheet. That actually is huge. Yeah, it gives you intelligence plus one. You always know north. You always know how many hours are left till sunrise or sunset. And you can recall anything in the last month. What in the heck?

I didn't know that those were the stakes. So does this mean if John asked a question about like something we saw or did like you'll have to tell him? I might make a check with advantage, you know. It makes sense that the bird knows which way is north. That's true. Character wise.

My intelligence modifier is now plus one. That's actually probably for the best that John got it then. Yeah. That's huge. That's very useful. Excellent. Excellent work, John.

Slash Mateed. I try. It helps that we just recorded that episode. What was that? Was that yesterday? That was yesterday. That was yesterday. All right.

Let's go ahead and dive into this tale. Everyone go ahead and roll me a perception check. Oh, and everyone can take a long rest as well. Yay. Thank goodness. My health and my rages were minimal. You refilled on rage. You topped up.

I topped up on my rage, which I also have now a fourth rage spot since we leveled up. I rolled a 23 for Elga. 10 for Barney 17 19 all right we'll start with mr barney farnie mr farnie you feel your body gently rocking back and forth and smell burnt toast oh no not again oh god you open your eyes and see you're seated at a booth table aboard a dining car. The table is set with eggs, bacon, toast, jam, tea, and coffee. On the other side of the booth is a plump man sipping on tea through his feathery mustache. Mateed and Chip, aside from Inspector Weezer and, you know, your party,

this particular cozy car is vacant of people. Just empty tables and the undertones of clinking railway below. Elga, with your advanced perception powers, you peer out the car window. It's cracked open, and you take a note of the landscape. No longer is it teeming with far-reaching fields

of fungi. Instead, you see leafless trees and frostbitten woods cloaked in mist. Spooky. Ah, awake just in time for breakfast, I see. Well, Tuckian, you all must be knackered from the past few days. Anyone fancy a cuppa? I'll cuppa, cuppa.

Yeah, so the table in front of you, like I said, is set with all kinds of breakfast foods, eggs, bacon, toast, jam, tea, coffee. And there's a silver cart next to the table in front of you, like I said, is set with all kinds of breakfast foods, eggs, bacon, toast, jam, tea, coffee. And there's a silver cart next to the table with additional delicacies if anybody is so inclined. I'm curious. Do you have any blood pudding? Oh, you look over. Weezer points at the cart. And sure enough, there's a dish of crimson blood pudding.

I will take... Excuse me, I'm finished ordering my meal. I will take seven, please. Growing girl. Dysf appears walking from behind a counter and begins removing blood pudding from the cart and putting it in front of you, Elga.

Dysf, what are you doing here? Do you work on every train that we are ever on in the story? That's my life, shuttling back and forth across all of Groteth. Would that be anything else? Perhaps some kipper tuna pate for your feline friend there? Jacques would prefer some tartare if you have some.

Very good. Dysf excuses himself, leaves the room for a moment, then returns with a small plate of tartare. Oh, c'est magnifique. Can I perceive, like, how is Weezer towards us now? I feel like we've had, like, ups and downs with Chief Inspector Weezer. I'm going to actually challenge you, Blaine.

Have Chip find out. I feel like Chip's, like, such a, like, a perp people person. He would, like, he would totally be, like, trying to figure it out, actually, by talking to this person. Okay, Gus, is that what you want? Yeah, make an insight check. You can try to have a conversation with him. It's totally up to you.

The sky's the limit. Hey, Chief Inspector Weezer. How are you? Chief. Weezer dabs at his mouth and his mustache with a napkin to clear crumbs. Very good, very good. Interested to hear an update from you all since we last parted wise. Yeah.

How do you like me? Check yes or no. Are we good, bro? Make an insight check for me, please. All right. I have a minus one on this, so it's not going to go well. Seven. You think Chief Inspector Weir is giving you serious side eye?

So that's not good. Hmm. How's the investigation going? I like this so much. Like how, like we've been doing our stuff on our end and we can update you. But like, how, you got any new clues over there? Yeah, you think as being the chief inspector, you'll maybe be finding stuff out faster than we are. Yeah, like the little one said.

That was faster than we are. Yeah, what the little one said. Well, when we last split up, you were taking over the investigation and heading to Glurb in pursuit of this phoenix, and I was returning to Atro City with our prisoners. Yeah. Right then. So what's the latest on your investigation, Mr. Haney?

What's going on with our prisoners there, uh, Weezer? Mr. Haney. What's going on with our prisoners there, uh, Weezer? Well, first of all, I'm happy to see that you're alright. I received an anonymous cryptic note that said something about you four needing help in Glab. So I boarded a train at once and when I arrived, half the village was petrified into gemstones. And you four were knocked out cold. That was two days ago. Oh.

I simply can't make sense of the rest of this note, but perhaps one of you can. Do you have it with you? Yeah, he holds out a small scrap of paper in front of him. Did Elga look at it? Yeah, he sees you reaching for it, Elga, and he hands it over in your direction. You look at it, and the first two lines of the note are written in common, but the rest of it is in a language I don't think you understand. Looking at your languages...

I have common Elvish and Goblin. No, you do not understand it, but you understand the first two lines. The first two lines say, your foursome of friends are in need of your aid. To Glurb, you should hasten before it's too late. Oh. It doesn't rhyme. So are friends. I read the first two lines, but do you guys know, anyone know what the rest of these

words say? And I hold it up to the rest of the party. I'll take a gander. Chip takes a look at it, and yeah, the words do make sense to Chip. Yeah, he recognizes it as thieves count. Oh, do I recognize this handwriting? Perhaps something I found on my fanny pack a few whiles ago.

Make a, we'll call it an intelligence check. Oh, please pass this old Chip. Come on, Chip. Where's the intelligence? I'm already failing. There it is okay 18 it does not look similar to you

from my wife okay what is the same these can't if you want to send it to me in a slack message I can read it to the group oh that sounds that that's a great idea I'm gonna keep it for the characters that someone is like trying to protect us and is aware of what we're doing but we don't know who it is

or like what their motive is for wanting to like, I don't know, keep us out of trouble. You got a benefactor looking over you. Maybe we all have a, we have a very rich aunt who's taking care of us.

You never know. I will say I'm gonna alter something I said slightly a little while ago. Okay. So when you asked me if you recognized the handwriting, I assumed you were comparing it to the one you received in your bum bag that we talked about a couple episodes ago. Yes.

While the two are not the same handwriting, you do, however, recognize that this letter you have now written in Thieves' Cant is in the penmanship of your missing wife, Carol. No! No! No! have now written in thieves cat is in the penmanship of your missing wife carol very emotional right now i'm gonna wait i'm gonna note from my wife here i'm just gonna read it to the group it's you're gonna hear the first part again but i'll read you the rest of it your first sum of friends are in need of your aid. To Glurb, you should hasten before

it's too late. That doesn't rhyme. That's okay, honey. I forgive you. The plans of Eddie are more than just murder. His pullings of threads will unravel the world further. If everyone knew of the secrets he scours, then Bedlam would follow

and quickly devour. Again, that's not a rhyme, sweetheart. The key to his quandary is finding the man whose name you all know, but kept secret to clans. And then it's got a from C, which is my wife, Carol.

Connie, please come home. I miss you so much. Huh. So as you can see, I can make neither heads nor tails of this note clearly despite my status as chief inspector i need your help in solving this mystery so my instinct right now is the plans of eddie are more than just murder his pulling of threads will unravel the world further so that means that he definitely had something to do with wolfman's murder and i think he's trying to divide the

worlds apart because that was the first step in making sure that the that union that all of the different parts of groteth had come to agree upon peace treaty right there it is i was gonna ask yeah let's spell p-i-e-E. Yeah, look at that. If everyone knew of the secrets he scours, then Bedlam would follow and quickly devour. So it's like he's got some sort of leverage against the people that would like, it would be like a bomb

dropped on him. I wonder if it's like something to do with Ma and Pa. Do we know? Because on the end of that note, as Chip read, as he said to all of us, I assume Was something about someone's name we know that we The key to this quandary is finding the man whose name you all know But kept secret to clans

Is that Paul? Is that perhaps somebody that the original founders know of the names? That's why Eddie keeps inquiring to the people like Blob about what else happened on that day. Or who else was there. It's just like, is this a person that we

know of that we were trying to like... Quick, everybody just say... What about the alchemist? Everybody just say every name you know right now and then we'll just get through something. Could be Robert. The alchemist, we went by the alchemist? Everybody just say every name you know right now, and then we'll just go through something. Could be Robert. The alchemist, we went by the alchemist, but then we found out his name.

Robert. Esteban. Yes. Well, it would seem you all have your own thoughts and instincts regarding this investigation. It's settled, then. I'd like to deputize all of you as city official lawful detectives.

Oh my goodness. He pulls out four silver badges that read COLD on them. I am so humbled. I unfortunately will have to decline. Decline? Yes. I have other business I must attend to but I'm beyond honored what other business do you have to attend to? I feel like this is the only thing we're doing right now Barney

well I need to need to find my my family well as a city official lawful detective you would gain access to the city's archives, which would perhaps aid you in whatever other investigations you might be pursuing. Oh, Barney, micro-fiche. Huh? On top of that, the position comes with a stipend

of 10 gold pieces per week. Does that back pay? Yeah, I was about to ask, is that the back pay? Well, I mean, we're in a new quarter. The whole thing rolled over. Budgets are getting realigned and reallocated. Oh, yeah, you got to get their financials, yeah.

I'm going to need to talk to HR about this. What kind of health benefits do we get? Any stock options or anything like that? Stock options? You know, Dagger had some pretty good retirement plans. Are you able to compete with that? Do you match? Do we get those 10 gold pieces now?

Sure, you can get them now. We're shaking down Weezer. He pulls out a medium-sized purse, undoes the string at the top, reaches in, and pulls out four smaller purses and hands one to each of you. Each with ten gold pieces? Each purse has actually four more small gold purses.

No, each purse has ten purses inside of it, and each of those purses has one gold piece in it. This isn't a very elaborate way of paying us. You only needed the one purse. I will not stand for this persecution. What you don't know is You're paying us. You only needed the one purse. I will not stand for this persecution. Oh. What you don't know is

Weezer's partner makes the purses and sells them to the city at an insane markup. Probably because you need one purse per coin. Everybody has to have their side hustle. What else comes with being one of these cold members?

You'll be assigned to this investigation officially. Your first task, uncover the identity of the individual to whom this letter is referring. And of course, find them. Do we get a gun? He was like, I'm out. And then he's like, actually, I want a gun. He wants one of those like pistols from the 1980s.

It only fires one shot, and then you have to like... Gus, what does Inspector Weezer say to that? A gun? I don't know what that is. So, no? It's a pastry from where he comes from. He's just wondering. He's a little hungry. Yes. Ah, I see. I see. Uh, no.

Just these badges, I'm afraid. But you can put those on right away. So, Weezer, catch me up here. You said that you were responsible for the transportation of the criminals. Eddie was in your possession at one point, was he not? We had captured him. Or am I thinking of point was he not we had captured him or am i

thinking of a different time when we had him i don't think you had captured eddie you must be thinking of someone else that might i think that that was like way long ago i'm sorry yeah you you ran into or you saw eddie at the top of the temple of antique right but then eddie was when you you know you lost consciousness when you came to, you saw the fire in the distance. That's where you all were previously. Got it. So then I want to go back to the ways that you found us. You say you found us in a state of unconsciousness.

It's been two days and half of Zaglerbian, a place was covered in gemstones. Do you know why I was left in that sort of state? So you say gemstones too? I wasn't sure if I was hearing things correctly. I learned to say it from my very good friend Zamuld. I'm a big fan of this large, shiny creature. I thought that's all we know about gems. Before he became evil.

Well, when I arrived in Glurb, the whole scene was in disarray. We found Hexel in the blob's remains. In fact, we are transporting the blob's remains on this very train right now, along with Hexel. We're taking them to Parrish to give the blob a proper send-off.

Oh, and Hexel was touched by the mold, right? And what they turn into blob was the blob was OK. I thought one was like splattered and then the other one was gamified. No blob was gamified. Got it. Well, they don't know where they might have a fighting chance anyway. Amongst the rest of the chaos,

I found you for passed out cold. And so I got help loading you up on the train. And here you are. Did you happen to collect any gemstones worth over 500 gold? I don't think so. Most of the gemstones, I mean gemstones, we found were like shards. Nothing really of substantial value anyway.

Well, shucks. Warner, didn't you already find one worth over 500 that we already used for what you needed? Well, I have a question. Did it disappear after I use it? Is it like a one-time use thing? You look through your items and you no longer find it. It is not in your possession.

When you summoned the Vesper Vein, it did not disappear. However, you do not seem to have that gem amongst your personal items. Hmm. I don't know where it went. Maybe you left it there. Well, it was Hexels. So, you know, last we saw, Eddie was running

away with Mould. Do you know much about Mould and like I mean, are they turned now? Are they a bad guy? Mould?, like, I mean, are they turned now? Are they a bad guy? Mould? What is that? Okay, never mind. Mould was a big old, like, crystal dude.

He was very friendly and amicable until Eddie, you said some fancy blurble-gurble talk, and it seems like he is now a bad guy. Very formidable foe. I think Eddie Winter Soldiered Mould. That makes sense. Like unlocked, because it was bad, probably, and then he just reinforced that, or he made it that. No, I think Eddie had a book with the words needed to control Mould,

and that's what Eddie was spouting flippantly during the encounter. Longing, rusted rusted 17 daybreak furnace except it was like flubble gobble blah blah blah boil in trouble yeah it was like literal baby talk but yeah this your train's going to Vania, am I right? Parrish. Parrish. Gotcha.

And then, like, what's next on the docket? Are we going to, like, I don't know, Dini World or something? As newly deputized officers of COLD, I'd be interested to hear your instincts on where you think the investigation is leading next. What clues or suspects have you all drummed up? Well, I mean, we probably want to find Eddie based off this note saying that he's basically a danger to everything and everyone. But I'm also very curious if, you know, maybe Carol will be somewhere.

Jet's wife, who clearly is alive and not dead, as we all assumed. Maybe she can help us. I told you she wasn't dead. I told you I didn't kill her. So to bring it back to information that we know at this point, Chip recognized in this note that was Carol. But when Chip checked the bum bag letter, am I remembering incorrectly? And Chip didn't recognize that as Carol. Yeah.

That's a good point. And then there is, in fact, somebody other than Carol, even though did we see Carol in the market in Carcasuc? Someone bumped into me, and that was how a note or letter got snuck into my bum bag. The same one that can speak to you, or another

one? I thought that was like an actual note from Carol. Shucks. I think it was. I think that's something that got bumped into him. Was that a month ago, Gus? Longer than that, probably. In game, in game, in game. Oh, in game.

Man, it's been a while. I don't know if it's been a month necessarily, but it has been a little while. Spill the beans, Gustavo. Tell me the answers. I got keen insight. I got keen mind now. Okay.

It starts now. this is this is the starting point i'm listening now i'm listening and i'm watching and i'm taking in everything there you go bird ears are open the bird brain we do not have ears that bird brain holes on the side of your skull okay so yeah can we get clarification on what's been carol and what hasn't been yeah you had you were bumped into in the market in carcasuke and you had a note put into your position that was signed as being from carol okay do you still have that note i mean i don't think in my inventory but i definitely have the letters of fancy talk whatever they were called i just want i'm just curious if when you got that note, I'm just trying to like, now I'm like,

I feel like we need a cork board with strings and pins and everything. That'd be Sylvia. While we're talking about people we're looking for, all this discussion has reminded me that the alchemist was supposed to meet me in Atro City, but he and his family never arrived. Would that have been because they were inside of coffins,

inside of Karkasuk? You all last saw them, yeah, there, and then you freed them, and then they left the Pyramid of Antique, heading back to Atro City. So this is them having left to go to Atro City from that, and they didn't arrive where Weezer was expecting them? Correct.

Okay, sorry. Do you have any idea where the alchemist could be? I'm sorry, we've been really busy dealing with a very fiery flying cat. Where did the alchemist go? Yeah, that's not something we are privy to. Do we not know where he went? We found him in those tombs, right?

Sarcophagus? Yeah. He walked into the sunset. I don't know if that's literal. He literally walked into the sun. I'm starting to think that us doing a small mini campaign of our old characters in order to promote our really cool new puppet show in the middle of this campaign was not the best for our memories of understanding

the plot of this mystery-like murder story. That's why this is a good time to have a Between the Tales to kind of review all of that and, yeah, get us back up to speed. Make sure we're all on the same page. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so the alchemist is missing between

leaving carcasuke and getting back to atrocity did not meet up with weezer correct chip has a note that chip got in that little piece of paper from another a mysterious person we don't know who what what was it what was the that got sent to you with that that with that little like sending note thing do you remember what the message was? Yeah. You wrote it down, I think, right? Okay, so that was called the Cartus Deia. Is that what you're talking about? The yonder letters? Yes. Okay, but that being said,

I do have that letter, John. I mean, my deed! I got the letter! Do you want me to read it to you? It's more so that I wanted to see if you would compare the penmanship, is really what I was wondering. Is it... I also just missed my wife's voice, you know. To Chip from Carol. Headdress is only the beginning.

He has the book of Daybreak. Go to L'chaim's library. Find the book of Evenfall. My talons, spelled T-A-L-O-N-S, lie elsewhere. Our love cannot be sheathed. P.S. A gift lies in the stars. Okay. And so that was from Carol.

Yeah. Besheath, BS, a gift lies in the stars. Okay. And so that was from Carol. And then we got a mysterious note in your Carta de Ayes. Do you remember what that said? I'll refresh your memory. Thank you. You received a letter that said, I'm amongst the dead now. That's right. That was from the Carta de Ayes. And that I didn't recognize the handwriting on.

And we haven't resolved what that was referring to Maybe that I think I want to say that that has something to do with The alchemist Could that be a reference to Vania? Is that maybe the undead? Yeah Where they're located

Physically Amongst the dead Is the alchemist going to be like a Princess Peach thing where you have to just keep saving this fool from everybody who keeps... Make a wisdom check for me, please. Okay, you got it. Here he goes. This is a Blaine wisdom check.

What's Blaine's modifier in wisdom? It's 11. It's probably the same as Chip. Minus one. So you rolled a 12, got an 11. You vaguely remember Francesca telling you That this might be from her family? Francesca, of course Mother of Henry

The Cartes? Yes Okay Weezer, you know, is listening to all of this and says Huh, so the alchemist is dead? That can't be good at all I don't think he is I don't think so I think he's just hanging with people who are Huh. So the alchemist is dead? That can't be good at all. I don't think he is.

I don't think so. I think he's just hanging with people who are. Yeah, he's doing the monster mash. Do you have a problem with that? Is that a problem with you? Do you not think that people should be hanging with those who are dead? Mati, Mati, calm down. It's all right. Well, not at all. It's just that he was very much alive last time I saw him. And once you make that transition to the other side, things change. And I'm just very keen on finding him.

And, well, he has a lot of patients that are waiting to be treated. We're heading to Parish. And that is the name of a place. Have we been to Parish before? No. Okay. Well, not as in this campaign. In your backstory, maybe. But as far as this campaign, no. I've been name of a place. Have we been to Parish before? No. Okay. Well, not as in this campaign. In your backstory, maybe.

But as far as this campaign, no. I've been all over the place. I'm a traveling bird. Yeah, I've killed all over the place, too. I'm a traveling bird. Where are we heading? Where is this place, Parish, that we are going? Oh, it's the place where Hexel would like to honor the blob and lay them to rest.

The land of the dead, maybe? In any case, where do you all think Eddie is at this point? We do need to keep track of both him and the alchemist. Why do we know where Eddie's going to Vania? Well, because didn't we get something at the end of the last episode saying that something's in Vania? He might have said he's going to Vania hmm interesting maybe eddie has the alchemist again perhaps we should go to vania and we'll find eddie and he'll lead us to the alchemist then why are we going to perish as you ask that question you hear a cat hiss and growl and suddenly Jacques leaps from Matide and jumps out of the half-open window.

Whoa! Blimey! Was that your cat? Matide goes out the window. Matide jumps out the window immediately. Jacques and Matide have both jumped out the window. Oh my! Perhaps you should help your friend. There's nothing I wouldn't do for my own kitty

Opus. Little round grey-haired cat with his little pointy snout. Now is not the time for a specific... Little grabby hands and how he's always eating grubs and insects. That sounds like an adorable kitty. Tell me more. I don't think a cat has a pointy snout. Are you referring to a different animal, perhaps?

He's always hissing and playing dead. Oh, like a possum. Oh, that's an opossum. Yeah. Yeah, perhaps a raccoon. He's a kitty. He's a trash kitty. Anyway, you should all help your friend. Yeah, I'll leap out the window too. What the heck? Elka's gonna maybe watch from the

window just to see what happens. Because Medit could fly and maybe just pick up Jacques and come back. And I don't know if I want to get too far away. What time of day is it? It's morning. You look out the window and you see Jacques quickly darting for some nearby icy woods. With Matide and Chip right behind him.

Well, it was a fun adventure while it lasted, right? Hell yeah. Yeah, and guess, do you think they're still taking breakfast orders? I want more blood pudding. I finished my seven. I wanted some beans and mash and bangers. Bangers? Bangers and beans and mash.

They might be getting too far away. Maybe we should go take after them. Okay. How fast is this train moving in this amount of time? How far are they from us now? We're only two miles away from you. There was is this train moving in this amount of time? How far are they from us now? We're a few miles away from you. There was a bullet train, so you have an extra 20 miles. Yeah, God.

Yeah, you all presumably, I guess, jump out the window as well and quickly chase after your friends. The Weezer, you know, is shouting after you all, and his voice quickly fades. Don't worry, detectives. I'll make you in Vainia. Good luck. Hello, stinkers.

Thanks to NordVPN for sponsoring our show. Being in the grocery stores during the holidays is like being stuck in a maze. And don't get me started on trying to pick out wine. I don't even know how wine works. I think it's grapes, but I'm not entirely sure. Between all the people, the giant selection, and my very limited knowledge of wine, I typically end up just grabbing whichever bottle has the coolest cover.

And let me tell you, that does not always mean the best tasting wine. But with First Leaf, they take the stress out of finding new wine. First Leaf is the wine club that sends me a personalized shipment of bottles that are based on my unique palette right to my door. All I have to do is go to First Leaf's website, answer a few questions about my likes and dislikes, and their expert team will select a customized assortment of world-class wines based on my preferences. And after you've tried each wine, you can rate them so that First Leaf can send wines

based on your feedback in the next shipment. Plus, all First Leaf wine is priced 30% lower than what you'd pay at a wine store. And every selection is backed by First Leaf's 100% satisfaction guaranteed. I did this. I filled out the thing. It's great.

I didn't know anything about wine, but they sent really good stuff. And you know, it made Thanksgiving so much easier because I brought all this wine and it all tasted great. I contributed, you know, to my family. I felt like an adult, not someone who just skins potatoes in the corners because mom says so. I brought wine and it was good. And seriously, there's nothing better than opening the door and finding a box of delicious wine. I mean, that's just really cool.

You don't have to carry it. It's just there. So go find the wine you'll love this holiday season with First Leaf. Go to tryfirstleaf.com slash stinky to sign up and you'll get your first six handcrafted bottles for just $44.95. That's T-R-Y-F-I-R-S-T-L-E-A-F dot com slash stinky. Try firstleaf.com slash stinky. Six bottles, $44.95. Seriously, could not recommend them enough.

When you say morning, is it like early, early morning? Like dim light morning or like? We'll say mid morning, not dim light, no. Okay. Before long, you all are surrounded by barren trees and a thick haze of mist, washed out by an overcast sky. So, you know, you all have to navigate the woods,

track down Jacques, and find him perhaps along the way. Maybe if you have any new abilities at your disposal, you can find Jacques as soon as possible. I mean, possible. Heh heh heh. Possible. This is good.

So yeah, I don't know if anybody has any abilities or has any ideas on how you're going to try to track down Jacques. You know, I can go first because, you know, I just don't know what it's going to do. But I want to share with the class what Chipaney has to bring to the table. Going to level six, I have chosen two or more skill proficiencies. And I have decided upon intimidation because I feel like sometimes I'm too much of a Mr. Nice guy. And I like sneaking

into people's ears and saying, hey, I'll kill ya. Because I think that's fun. And then I also got sleight of hand. So I'm even better at stealing stuff now. I don't know if I should intimidate the cat or steal the cat, but that's what I got. That's how Chip approaches every situation.

It's either intimidate or steal. Those are the two tools in his toolbox, and he's going to use them every chance he can. Yep. Are we, like, near the cat? No, the cat has disappeared from your sight now, so you have to try to figure out how you're going to find shock. Okay.

In a moment of concern for Matide's favorite being in all of this world, Matide manages to... But I stayed on the train. This is internal. This is internal, Matide. This is not a Barney conversation. Matide casts Visage of the Astral Self. Mateed has evolved in their monastic traditions and now as a bonus action can cast Visage of the Astral Self,

which comes up with a bunch of stuff. It's kind of the upgraded of the arms of the Astral Self. I'm finding all my Astral self as I go. But what this specifically gives me a few things. It gives me astral sight. I can see normally in darkness, both magical and non-magical to a distance of 120 feet. If I were to get like fly up for a vantage point, would that give me any sort of like help with looking into this like misty, difficult to view area? Sure. Why not? Okay okay so can i see the

katie is there anything else that you would want to use like i see i see that there's other aspects of this as well yeah i'm i matine is like perplexed as to why the cat decided to exit the train at such an inopportune time i also get advantage on insight checks could i maybe check for insight on why that might have occurred is would insight be a part of that yeah i think this would be more like almost like animal handling since it's a cat you know i'm a bird you're eric okran yeah yeah is it animal handling animal handling animal handling so it's just animal to animal so it's insight is what I'm saying. Good try.

Sure. We'll say, we'll roll with it. Why not? Yeah. Well, I mean, you know, obviously your vision and your, you know, this astral sight and, you know, you're trying to figure out the motivations behind the cat are going to help you quite a bit. So first of all, let's just roll, I guess, like, let's call it a survival check with advantage to see if you spot Jacques tracks. Okay okay that's a nat 20 23 no point even rolling the other one then now you know

when you take to the air you see some paw prints in the frosty soil leading in a one of the directions so you know that jock must be just a little up ahead make Make an insight check with advantage because of Visage of the Astral Self. It's 24 with advantage. You've had Jacques a decent amount of time now, but you've never seen Jacques behave this way in the past. Was it fear or was it, what was the startle? Like, that's what I'm curious about. It doesn't seem like it was fear.

It seemed like Jacques was intent to do something. Nothing on the train scared him and made him run out. It seemed it was more like he was motivated to do something. Gotcha. Okay, then what I do with this information of seeing the tracks is I use the other part of images of astral self, and I use word of the spirit, and I can speak directly to a creature within 60 feet

making it so only that creature can hear me or i can alternatively amplify my voice that all creatures within 600 feet can hear me and i i relay this information to my party that while i'm still overwatch oh you all hear the i assume you're doing the 60 foot one are you doing the booming 600 foot i'll do the booming 600 foot one? I'll do the booming 600 foot one so that all three party members, because I think we've determined that Elga and Barney leapt. Yeah, you all hear like a booming Matide voice from overhead relay the direction Jacques is running to you. Chris was trying to be like nonchalant about it. I was like, Chris, do you want Matide to be your friend or do you want to be catty?

You can't have it both ways, my friend. So now the group kind of generally knows which way the cat's headed. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I pointed you guys towards where the tracks are. Matide, can we get you like your loud booming voice explaining to the party which direction to go? I was about to do like a bird's eye. Ah! voice explaining to the party which direction to go.

I smell something like a bird's eye. Ah! I see where the catty's jocks tracks are that way. Please find my kitty. Oh my god. I can hear it. It's so loud. Can you be more specific with

that way? I, uh, how about I throw my, uh, my spear of superior baking and make I uh how about I I throw my uh My spear of superior baking And make it explode with Wheat chaff as a direction For them to go oh like a flare

Like a flare A flare of wheat And do we do me and Barney see that Yeah yeah you all see that Everyone make me a perception check 16 11 14 10 I've never heard someone so excited that. Everyone make me a perception check. Sixteen. Eleven. Fourteen. Ten!

I've never heard someone so excited with such a bad roll before. Ten! Chip, you rolled a sixteen. You hear like a rhythmic thumping coming from the direction that Matide pointed you all to go into. I investigate. Chip leads the way through the forest and after

going through a little bit of brush and some trees You find a humanoid with an axe chopping away at a tree. Oh, he seems somewhat startled as you all approached Whoa, oh, I didn't expect anybody out here. I know this I know this guys watch this I go up and I say SHOW US WHERE THE CAT IS! SHOW US WHERE THE CAT WENT! I'M INTIMIDATING YOU RIGHT NOW! WHERE THE KITTEN GOES! And I say, show us where the cat is! Show us where the cat went! I'm intimidating you right now! Where'd the kitten go? There's just a giant vein poking out of Chip's forehead. Yeah, make an intimidation check.

And I think with my ability, oh my God, that's a 23. I rolled a 13. I have plus 10 on intimidation. The lumberjack begins, he puts his axe between you and him, not in a threatening way, but like he's trying to hide behind the axe. Like, oh, don't hurt me. And he shrinks away.

I saw a flash of orange running that direction. And he points a little to the south. I don't know if it was a cat, but maybe. And with my new abilities, I have proficiency with intimidation and sleight of hand. So then I shake him down and I say say give me all your stuff! I need my cat! And I use slide a hand to steal from this lumberjack. This is gonna be our next little Jimmy, isn't it?

Make us make a slide a hand. Chip's turn. That's a 6 plus 8 for 14. What does my character stuff entail? What does that even mean?

Micah's calling it an overt of hand. Cause you're not, there's nothing to fight about it. It's at six level, choose two or more of your skill proficiencies or one more skill or proficiency in your first agency with these tools. You can, your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that

uses either of the chosen proficiency proficiencies. So did I just get, did I just double that? Do I have to do that manually or is it... Is that why your intimidation is plus 10 now? Maybe. I think that's why. It's automatic. You can tell because on the character sheet, thanks Micah, on the character sheet you can see it's got

like the dot filling it in showing you're proficient and it's got a circle around it showing that it's doubled. That's what that means. Yeah, like your other ones are just dotted, but those are circled. Cool. Okay. and it's got a circle around it showing that it's doubled. That's what that means. Yeah, like your other ones are just dotted, but those are circled. Cool, okay. Yeah, I shake him down.

You shake him down. A little bindle with some hard biscuits is in one of his pockets and a small coin purse filled with seven silver is in the other one. And then I grab him and I say, you haven't taken a break in a while, I can tell! Eat these biscuits in here!

Take this! And I give him five silver pieces. His own five silver pieces? No, I give him five of my own silver pieces for his troubles. Oh, he's so nice. He goes, oh, yeah, just please don't hurt me. I'll eat all the biscuits. He begins shoving the biscuits in as fast as he can into his mouth.

He's like, oh, oh, oh, oh. All the moisture has been removed from his mouth now and he's just like, he tries to talk and dry bits of biscuit are coming out. Have a lovely day! Good day to you, sir! And I run towards Jacques. Before we leave this area, could I actually, you said he's right by a tree? Yeah.

Can I use one of my new abilities? Which is bestial soul? I get to choose basically an ability that I have now, which is climbing. I chose climbing. Okay. So I gain a climbing speed equal to my walking speed, and I could climb difficult surfaces, including upside down on ceilings without needing to make an ability check. Oh, just like Twilight.

Exactly. I don't know anything about Twilight. Nobody does that in Twilight. I just gotta be clear. So I was thinking maybe I climb this tree, I go to the top, and I just look and I see if we can see Jack from anywhere. Oh, sorry. To be clear,

they do climb a lot of trees in Twilight. I'll at least say that. I was thinking more like the ceiling crawl thing that I can't wait for Elga to do to really scare somebody. Like Spider-Man. Yeah. I see more like Lionel Rich thinking more like the ceiling like crawl thing that i can't wait for elga to do to really scare somebody like spider-man yeah i see more like uh lionel richie dancing on the ceiling um that's an old man reference for all of uh all your parents who are listening is he related to richie rich yes actually cool you don't have to roll anything to climb right you just do it i just do it elga in almost a very feral manner begins scampering up the tree

super quickly way faster than you uh you think you a very feral manner, begins scampering up the tree super quickly, way faster than you think any of you would be able to do it. So fast you think I'm just hovering up the tree. Can we get some efforts of how it sounds when Elga's going up the tree? Feral. It's not very feral, but it's very Elga. Elga, you climb up and you begin scouring the wilderness looking for any signs of shock.

Roll me a, once again, we'll call it a survival check. Did you know that, you know, big trees are kind of like broccoli? What? I love hearing El of like broccoli. What? I love hearing you say broccoli. Wait, was that from the show or second wind? Why is Blaine confused? It was the show. I was talking about the color green being broccoli.

Oh, that's right. Yeah. In second wind, Blaine, Gus said his, we were talking about our favorite moments from the episode, and he said his favorite was when Barbara said broccoli. Broccoli. Broccoli? Roll it again. I don't know if I said it.

You're supposed to roll with advantage because you have the high ground here. 19 with advantage. Nearby, you see a patch of orange fur that got, like, caught in a bush heading off in the southerly direction. Okay. Could I go back down and then tell everyone the place I saw it go? Yeah. And so I guess you all begin scampering off in that direction.

The only sound you hear is the knocking of the lumberjack's knees against each other. And just the sound of a little bit of urine. Yellow snow. What flavor is yellow, everyone? Gross. You continue to, hopefully you presume, close the distance with Jacques. Barney, you got any abilities that you want to flex on us? Yeah, Barney, what you got, Mr. Level 6? I'm trying to.

I can't. Okay, do just make me a survival check if you want, Barney. Well, what's the weather like? It's cold, dry. There's a little bit of snow on the ground. And is it like, are we in a forest? Yeah, lots of vegetation. Is it dimly lit?

Yeah, it's still, you know, it's morning. And, you know, like I said, it was mid-morning, but you are under like a canopy of a bunch of trees. So, you know, not a lot of sunlight is making it down. So it's not directly overhead yet. Okay. Barney sees Elga scamper up the tree and he tries to do the same.

He's like... Even though we already saw where it went? Yes. Okay. He's a little delayed. And then he floats up after Elga and flies up. Ooh.

Steps of night as a bonus action When you're dim light or darkness You can magically give yourself a flying speed Equal to your walking speed for one minute You can do this three times or gain all extended Uses when you finish the long rest So Barney while trying to climb Up the tree he finds himself

Flying up the tree And he's like where did the cat Kitty kitty go It's pretty much the same thing. Climbing, flying. Yeah. Yeah. And then he flies off after the cat.

Now, is this a spell that you've assigned because of the long rest? Or is this a new level six thing? Because I have theories as to what's going on here. That is a ability of a twilight cleric. So is that a level six thing you've been able to choose for? Yeah, it's a level six ability that a twilight cleric gets at level six. If it's dim light, then they can use the twilight to, like, float through the...

I thought you had secretly multiclassed under our noses. No! As clerics level up, they gain access to more domain features within their, like, whatever domain they worship. It's not unlike the monastic tradition that I automatically going to six, this is what happened. And so automatically his being a cleric went to level six and this happened. Yeah. Yeah. You begin floating up a tree trying to figure out where

Jacques went. Matide, let go! Matide's carrying him up. We're all just down there going, what did he say? Make a survival check with advantage, please. Barney. 15. While you're floating up, presumably

trying to swat at Matide above you, who's not really there, to let you go, you hear a meager mew in the distance. And you know that Jacques must be nearby. Ah, the most rare Pokemon. I also wanted to just provide context from the perspective of the lumberjack. A giant bird person flew overhead and started yelling.

A man came in, robbed him, yelled at him, and then paid him. A little girl tore up a tree like a little beast, and then an old man just floated off into the sky. This guy probably thinks that the Matrix is collapsing on itself or something. He's like, man, he shouldn't have eaten those wild mushrooms he picked earlier that morning.

What were you saying, Gus? Yeah, you hear some meager mewing in the distance. And you know Jacques must be nearby. This way. And then Barney points and then flies that direction. We just see Barney fly off. Okay. It's Princess Leia in that one-star movie.

She's going a buddy. You travel on further and quickly pick up cat tracks that lead you to the edge of a tree line. Amidst the mist, you make out a feline silhouette and the sound of purring. Jacques turns to you, Matide,

and rubs against your leg. He offers a mew, but then begins walking forward, leading you further away from the woods and into the haze. Further into the fog, you come upon strange monolithic stones standing in a line, each one marked with etchings.

But just as you get close enough to read them, the ground beneath you gives way. Everyone make a dexterity saving throw. Whoa. Fifteen. Was I able to see this so I could do advantage? Yeah, you have your danger sense would work here. Ten. Ten. Seventeen. Elga, you're the only one who successfully avoids it,

but everyone else falls into a hole in the ground. Wait, I'm flying. Oh, not you then. Chip and Mateed stumble into a hole in the ground. I fall into a hole in the ground? Do you stop yourself? Yeah. Chip falls into a hole in the ground.

Oh no, I got chip codes that make this a lower stakes tool. I have that flying carpet from ten episodes ago. That was returned. Chip takes four points of bludgeoning damage as he falls. And Jock begins mewing

incessantly and a faint galloping silhouette quickly approaches. A shadowy steed swiftly stops just over the hole. A wispy rider sits atop the stallion wearing a double-breasted gray coat with a blazing jack-o'-lantern for a head. Oh, Tideless Horseman! Oh, Mike. Bonjour. It would seem you nearly made a grave mistake. Perhaps you were on the hunt for your own

demise? No matter. Allow me to be your host in the City of Ghosts. Bienvenue and welcome to Perish. But did you know this person This is wonderful. This is like going to Austin, Texas and being greeted by Matthew McConaughey.

It's the city of nights. Perish. I also like how they're both just talking to each other in a French accent rather than talking to each other in French. Yeah. I like having our Between the Tales episodes like this. Get a little bit of fun, a little bit of role play and get to get to show off some new some new abilities that everyone has. Like my climbing. Yeah.

Before we wrap up, what other things did you guys get that we might not have gotten to? I'm curious. I bet you there's more or maybe there's more. I don't know. I don't know much. I could just say run through mine real quick. Yeah. So obviously my HP increased.

Sure. Which is great for being a barbarian. And then I got that bestial soul. I picked climbing. I also had the option to pick swimming and jumping. But I felt like the climbing one felt the most versatile. Climbing comes in handy. Yeah. As someone who used to be able to turn into a spider.

Oh yeah. I forgot about that. And then the other thing, I think the only other thing that changed is I have another rage slot as well. So I could rage up to four times now per rest. That's good. Nice. Elga got angrier.

Yeah. Yes. And that's only going to get worse. It's the opposite of anger management. How about you, John? Yeah. Biggest thing was the visitors Ashwood Self, but I also

got key empowered strikes, which basically means my unarmed strikes are now magically based. So anything that is resistant or immune to physical strikes. Ah, Gus, you got to take the full damage now. Uh-oh, like a Phoenix. I got magic feet. And then Visitors of Ashwood Self, and then I got that

and then I think that was about it other than some HP increase. Yeah, that's about it. Not a ton happens at six. You get to move a little faster. Oh, that's right. I got a new key point, another key point, and I got more unarmored movement. I increased by 15 feet, so I can move even more.

Wow. That's pretty significant. Yeah, I can fly 65 feet now. Oh, nice. Wow. yeah i can fly 65 feet now oh nice wow i got an extra channel divinity for every long rest which is either turn undead or twilight divinity which is the thing that gives everyone temp hp i also got an extra third level spell slot and then last i got the divine domain feature which for me is that like night flying twilight flying steps of night of night. Steps of night. And I can do that three times per long rest.

So I can fly for a minute. Three minutes a day. Only, only it has to be like dim light or darkness. So it's like, that's what I was like, what time of day is it? Yeah.

Is that an auto proc or is that a bonus action? No, no, I have to, yeah, it's a bonus action. Okay. I was just curious that the, the, the applications of that, no, I have to, yeah, it's a bonus action. Okay. I was just curious,

the applications of that in combat, I was curious. Yeah, it's a bonus action and then it lasts for one minute. Copy, copy. It's pretty cool. Chip only just got their expertise on intimidation and did sleight of hand, but, you know, I'm not going to be a baby about it.

I know that, you know, the, the, the, like the rogue classes start popping off sooner or later. And until then, I'm just going to enjoy the role play, you know, because I had my time as Kyborg in the, the action combat. That's okay. I like how you're doing it all as Chip. I don't know what you're talking about. Well, I'm,

I'm excited to see Chip being able to actually make some successful roles in these role-playing scenarios scenarios since I don't have much charisma as Mateet, so it's or intimidation or anything like that. The Riz. I got the Riz up. The Wooza. The Woo. Yeah. Wazu. Wazu, that's what I meant. The Wooza.

I'll take a cuppa. Heck yeah. I know we'll probably record this over with someone else, but I want the audience to know, Gus did not do a British accent with that. He said, you want a cuppa? And I need one. I need at least one attempt. If the rest of us can do that, you can do it.

You all must be knackered from the past few days. I don't know. Don't make me do that. Don't make me. Gus doesn't know.
