Scribe Quo Remember better play

12
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:44,760
faster.
Last session the agents of the

13
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:48,880
Syndicate opened on a calculated
raid of the Starbound Emporium.

14
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:54,720
The half elf proprietor, Iramel
* Weaver blinked at six armed

15
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:59,800
silhouettes and tried to smile.
Svara quietly claimed Boots of

16
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,200
Alvin Kind and eyed the shield
rack.

17
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,920
Olgerman loomed over a display
of chain links reflecting forest

18
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,000
light and bargained Alvin chain
down with a steady voice and a

19
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,560
harder stare.
Zebulon asked after gloves

20
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,920
threaded in silver script and a
second pair of silent boots,

21
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:21,720
promising to leave the first
pair to Svara if stock ran thin.

22
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,520
Then Nairos stepped to the
counter, cool as a winter cut,

23
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,000
and pushed for a broom of flying
and a cloak of displacement,

24
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,680
peeling at the price.
And the shop keeps thoughts

25
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,040
until fear and numbers bent his
way.

26
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,920
Castella, meanwhile, asked for
something with a heartbeat and

27
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:39,960
found a hellhound pup with ember
eyes.

28
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,520
A single touch and a soft word
later, as Modius the Ember Bound

29
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,600
sat at her heel like he had
always been there.

30
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,640
They regrouped at the Whisper
Fang Tavern, humming with

31
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,200
Syndicate clicks and blue Ward
light Almond.

32
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,800
Teren, the Curator drifted to
their table like he already knew

33
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:01,840
every blade in the room.
He broke a wax seal bearing the

34
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,760
coiled serpent and laid out a
mission with the weight of

35
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:09,000
history, the Pyre Heart Accord,
a packed binding dominion of

36
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,560
Falrik and Hollow Host under one
creed of purification.

37
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,720
Their task?
Climb Mount Varon, infiltrate

38
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,720
Pyre Hart's stronghold, prevent
the signing by theft, fire or

39
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,880
blood, and capture any
intelligence on a rumoured relic

40
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:28,240
that can hold divine flame.
He left six vials of volcanic

41
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,480
ash to confound scent wards and
a final sting.

42
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,000
Five days until the procession
of the Crownless, after which

43
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,080
the mountain would seal.
To pass, they would need

44
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,120
Dominion clearance and a grief
offering.

45
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,880
Find something you have recently
lost, He advised and vanished

46
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,560
into the ward glow.
The Shatter peaks greeted them

47
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,760
with metal tinged wind on a
narrow knife trail.

48
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:55,640
The mountain groaned and bucked.
Stones battered Zebulon and

49
00:02:55,640 --> 00:02:59,160
Ogreman while a Dominion sigil
bled through fractured Cliff

50
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:05,920
Pyre heart. 1 faith one flame
time pressed, Zebulon scouted

51
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:07,760
the faster route along glowing
vents.

52
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,480
Slipping behind his Onyx glass
mask, he found a Cliff.

53
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,560
Outpost 2, Dominion Flame
guards, one hollow Host Acolyte

54
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,480
murmuring a funeral cadence and
glimpsed a memory echo overhead.

55
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,360
Officers signing beneath
volcanic light.

56
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,520
Fate leaned toward the worst
outcome.

57
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,040
They tried to drift past.
Inside a mirage of ash haze, One

58
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,680
vent exhaled wrong.
The illusion twisted.

59
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,960
The acolyte's voice rang like a
tuning fork and stripped the

60
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,320
veil.
The agents moved as one.

61
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,560
Zebulon froze all three foes mid
motion.

62
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,000
Nairos streaked forward on his
broom and shoved them toward the

63
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,120
drop before turning the air into
a howling wall. 1 veteran

64
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,080
toppled into silence.
The other teeted until Ogeman's

65
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,040
massive hands closed, swung and
threw him into the abyss.

66
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:59,040
Then with a quiet growl, super
heated the last man's armor

67
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,200
until screams turned to
stillness.

68
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,920
Baxter, Zebulon's summoned hound
crashed into the Acolyte because

69
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,960
Daya's twin blasts shattered
porcelain and breath.

70
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,880
Svara's boots reached the blood
a heartbeat late, and she walked

71
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,920
it off with frost in her eyes.
Ash snow began to fall, each

72
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:22,480
flake marked by a faint red rune
that only sunlight could kill.

73
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,800
A procession crested the Ridge.
Robes, bone masks, the glow of

74
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,040
memory within.
The pale choir whispered in

75
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:35,880
unison, one flame, 1 faith, one
end, and marched toward the

76
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,760
caldera.
The agents raised a stone facade

77
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,000
around their cart, but echoes
listened deeper than eyes see.

78
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:46,640
The illusion wavered, Thoughts
rang and the choir turned as the

79
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,160
agents hands drifted to hilts
and pouches.

80
00:04:49,840 --> 00:04:53,440
Steel steel masks face them as
the initiative to survive and

81
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,800
stop a war flickered into motion
with Pyre Heart and the

82
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,560
procession's deadline just
ahead.

83
00:05:02,280 --> 00:05:07,280
In the world of Dragons, where
the dice decide adventure calls,

84
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:11,000
We won't run or hide.
Gather around the table.

85
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,800
Let's ignite the night With
friends by our side.

86
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:20,960
We light up the five Chris and
failures.

87
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:32,240
We'll laugh till we cry.
Crit happens.

88
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:39,120
We're on a walk, all right
together, through battle, side

89
00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:44,280
by side with every Roland.
New Tail unfolds in this

90
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:46,880

00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,200
quests unknown, we craft our
stories together.

93
00:06:23,280 --> 00:06:26,160
We've grown, rolling with
laughter.

94
00:06:26,280 --> 00:06:29,880
We make the best team in this
DND life.

95
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,800
We chase every dream.
So roll.

96
00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:40,600
The dice let the magic begin and
crit happens.

97
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:46,120
We're on a wild ride together
through battle.

98
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:52,560
Side by side with every roll on
you tail unfolds in this podcast

99
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:59,920
World adventure.
Behold, crit happens.

100
00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:04,440
Come join the fun with laughter
and stories.

101
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:30,110
We only just be gone.
Welcome to Kurt Havoc here on

102
00:07:30,190 --> 00:07:35,070
Spotify, iTunes, Choir FM,
poddirectory.com, teacher.com,

103
00:07:35,070 --> 00:07:37,990
TuneIn Radio, and
iheartradio.com.

104
00:07:38,390 --> 00:07:42,830
We welcome in another episode of
the Scale Bound Syndicate with

105
00:07:42,870 --> 00:07:44,910
our agents.
Say hello, agents.

106
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:51,280
Hello.
Hello, we are back once again to

107
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:55,320
continue on on the adventure to
the Pyre Heart Accord.

108
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,680
We last left our agents in the
best opening possible.

109
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,080
Agents need everybody to roll
initiative.

110
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,320
I refuse.
OK, so Nero's explodes

111
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,160
immediately.
Yeah, Nero's explodes

112
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:16,200
immediately.
I think initiative means like

113
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,800
how fast you're moving, right?
Yeah, right, right.

114
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:19,680
Yeah, that's.
Right.

115
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:22,800
I got a 13 standing.
Oh wait, you're going to

116
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,600
countdown.
Yeah, well, I'll now that I'm

117
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:30,040
using improved initiative, not
sponsored by the way, I can just

118
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,200
put them in.
So, Neros, what's your

119
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:33,880
initiative?
13.

120
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:41,919
Ogemon. 2. 2. 2.
Homie.

121
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:49,600
OK homie, we will actually
remove Kansdea from this fight

122
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,400
as of right now.
Wait, I can use inspiration

123
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:54,440
right?
Reroll.

124
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,440
I wouldn't on initiative.
I wouldn't on initiative, OK.

125
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:03,720
Tomorrow 22. 22 All right, Does
that be alone?

126
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,240
15 And we welcome back to the
show.

127
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,920
Osisa, what did you get for
initiative?

128
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,280
And five, five all.
Right, Let me roll initiative

129
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,640
for the big band.
He's here.

130
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,560
That's a that's a one start.
Great start.

131
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,040
You going where?
More ones.

132
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,240
Maybe our description says what
we're supposed to have advantage

133
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:34,560
on for.
All right, agents, improved

134
00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:39,440
initiative trackers in the chat
for you and we will start with

135
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,240
the cream of the crop.
Savara, what you see?

136
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,520
What?
Yeah, what everyone sees here,

137
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:46,840
just to kind of give a little
bit of narrative.

138
00:09:47,560 --> 00:09:51,440
You Crest over the Black Plateau
as the sky begins to dim and

139
00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:56,720
cloud, not with sunset, but more
with ashfall so thick that it

140
00:09:56,840 --> 00:10:00,560
eats the light itself.
The snow beneath your boots has

141
00:10:00,560 --> 00:10:04,120
turned to soot, and each step
leaves a print that smolders

142
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,480
faintly before fading.
The wind changes.

143
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,560
It stops howling.
It begins to sing.

144
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,560
At first it's easy to mistake it
for a trick of the air, thin

145
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:17,600
harmonic tones threading through
the mountain gusts.

146
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:22,440
But the melody builds, layering
itself until words become clear,

147
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,640
whispered on every current of
heat and dust.

148
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,560
Your breath catches, the air
ahead of you ripples distorting

149
00:10:29,560 --> 00:10:32,080
like heat rising from an unseen
forage.

150
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,560
Shapes take form in in the
storm.

151
00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:39,000
They're not alive.
They're not dead. 12 silhouettes

152
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,280
March in solemn procession
through the haze, their bodies

153
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:46,040
nothing but ash, ember, and
memory, each wearing the faint

154
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,880
impression of tattered vestments
that burn and reform endlessly.

155
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:55,000
Mass of black glass glow faintly
from within, as if somebody

156
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,120
excuse me, As if something
trapped.

157
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:02,400
As if something trapped them
behind I'm having a stroke.

158
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:06,360
As if something trapped behind
them is still breathing.

159
00:11:06,680 --> 00:11:11,000
As they pass the ash fall, the
ash falls thicker, and their

160
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:17,200
voices shift from unison to
dissonant harmony, a choir

161
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:21,760
unraveling into grief.
Then three of the figures stop.

162
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:26,600
They turn their hollow faces
toward you, and the world stands

163
00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,440
still.
No footsteps, no sound but the

164
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:34,320
hiss of cooling ash.
You feel it before you heat.

165
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,880
Without fire.
The ground trembles, snow

166
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:41,120
glassing over at your feet.
The air itself becomes a wall of

167
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,120
of pressure.
One of the race that you see in

168
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,240
front of you raises an arm.
The ash along its form flows

169
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,880
backwards, drawn by a wind you
cannot feel.

170
00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,200
You hear the whisper directly in
your mind now, clearful,

171
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,320
mournful and infinite.
You walk in shadows and

172
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,840
syndicate.
Your flame is borrowed.

173
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,800
Do you know what you burn for?
And the sound tears through you

174
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,880
like a fever.
The thoughts shimmer, fragile

175
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,240
against the psychic heat.
The rest of the choir fades into

176
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:15,720
the Blizzard behind them.
These three remain, and they

177
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,200
surged forward, trailing
tendrils of black flame that

178
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:24,000
shed into no light but leave the
taste of iron in your mouth, and

179
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,320
for a moment you swear the the
mountain itself is leaning in to

180
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:30,600
watch.
And we'll start with Savara.

181
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,760
How far away are they?
So when they stopped, turn to

182
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,400
face you and they're now, they
kind of started moving towards

183
00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,640
you.
They are about 25 feet away.

184
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,720
OK, cool.
Is any one of them larger than

185
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,680
the other?
No, they are all the same size.

186
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,000
All right, well, I'm just going
to go in and I'm going to whack

187
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,120
one with my Warhammer.
OK, so they are there are three

188
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:00,640
of them.
So which one would you like to

189
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:05,360
to hit?
Let's go now you know what,

190
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,920
let's sort of solve this problem
middle.

191
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,200
Middle one, all right #2 it is.
Go ahead.

192
00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,680
And what do you kind of describe
how your attack is?

193
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,840
Well, I'm going to use my
Warhammer, so it's the plus one

194
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:24,320
Warhammer and I'm just going to
1st go in and swing.

195
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:33,320
Usually I believe I can
determine after I hit yeah if I

196
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,160
can do anything else.
So let me roll first row.

197
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,760
You know what, Savaro's really
mad over how the last thing

198
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:49,960
went, so I'm gonna re roll that
with an inspiration.

199
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,720
OK, just like curiosity, what'd
you roll?

200
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:57,440
A6 for four?
Yeah, well, we'll see.

201
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,560
How's a 19?
19 sounds good.

202
00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:03,080
That is a hit.
OK.

203
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:11,400
And we'll do the frost strike on
this one.

204
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:19,480
OK so they'll make it DC-17
saving throw Con and I will

205
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:25,680
damage.
They will fail to save for the

206
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,920
con.
All right, they have no movement

207
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:33,120
speed done.
OK, until my next turn and

208
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:40,480
they're going to take oh gosh, 7
bludgeoning and or excuse me, 10

209
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:48,360
bludgeoning and 1 cold.
And as she goes in and had heard

210
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,720
though, who do you burn for?
She would have been I burn for

211
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:55,040
nobody, but I freeze you and
just swings down right at them.

212
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,400
OK.
So as you come forward with the

213
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,240
the kind of the first strike of
that hit, it does that 10

214
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:05,600
bludgeoning.
But when you add that cold on

215
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,600
the second swipe, however, it
doesn't seem to do as much

216
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,800
damage as it typically would
when you hit somebody with that

217
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,640
kind of damage.
But you will still receive the

218
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,720
one point of cold damage because
you can't, you can't degrade

219
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:19,440
that in two.
So.

220
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,920
And then I'll swing again.
OK, same character.

221
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,400
Yep.
OK, 18.

222
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:33,120
That will hit.
This one I'll I'll just leave

223
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,480
out this.
OK. 10 Damage 10.

224
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:40,080
Damage again all right, so that
second slash again you just come

225
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,120
down and after you see the coal
going to kind of not do any

226
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,680
damage, you kind of spin around
and almost do a 360 and whack it

227
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:51,760
right into its ribs and you just
kind of hear it crunch against

228
00:15:51,800 --> 00:16:00,280
almost nothing at the same time
as we move forward to the 3rd

229
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:06,640
Ashen race turns, so it does
have two attacks.

230
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:15,480
First it will this will go after
ogemen, so it will go in with an

231
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:20,480
ashen touch.
So that will be a 21 to hit you

232
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,040
ogemen.
It just does all.

233
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:30,400
Right, and then we will.
That's the cool D4 that I have.

234
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:39,240
That's not what I want.
All right, And that will be 9

235
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:44,200
necrotic damage.
And I also need you to make me a

236
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,040
Wisdom saving through a
difficulty of 15.

237
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:57,320
Hey, let's let's roll.
Yeah, you got me.

238
00:16:57,880 --> 00:16:59,000
You gotcha, All right?
Yeah.

239
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,760
That's a six.
You are going to be frightened

240
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:06,000
until the end of this the Ashton
Ray 3's next turn.

241
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:13,280
OK so so little DMS in here.
Frightened would mean that he

242
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:16,160
would have to use all of his
movement running away from that

243
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:20,400
creature, correct?
I forget the difference, but

244
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,440
there's like frightened and
scared.

245
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,240
One of them makes it so you
can't move anywhere except far

246
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,200
away, and one of them makes it
so that you have to spend your

247
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,560
whole turn running away.
A frightened creature.

248
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,040
Let's see, I gotta change this
to 2024 rules, OK?

249
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,040
Frightened.
A frightened creature has

250
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:37,120
disadvantage on ability checks
and attack roles, while the

251
00:17:37,120 --> 00:17:40,880
source of its fear is within the
line of sight, and the creature

252
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,400
cannot move willingly closer to
the source of your fear.

253
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,840
So you don't have to spend your
movement running away from it,

254
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:50,720
you just can't move closer to
it, which I guess in this case

255
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,360
you can't move any further than
you are now technically.

256
00:17:56,280 --> 00:18:02,080
So I have a question.
Is that a Oh, sorry.

257
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,040
I apologize.
So because that was a melee

258
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:10,040
attack, he is 5 feet in front of
you so you can move towards the

259
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:15,040
other two.
And with that, he's actually

260
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,760
going to target Nero.
So am I able to?

261
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,280
Am I able to make a reaction
first?

262
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:23,040
Sure, Yeah, if you have a
reaction, go for it.

263
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:30,640
OK, it'll be Storm Thunder.
OK, one D8 of Thunder damage.

264
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:37,800
OK.
I guess I'll roll it.

265
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:39,960
Yeah, go.
That's fine.

266
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,320
Yeah.
Is that just a straight?

267
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,200
Like there's no save or
anything.

268
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,000
Just a straight, just a straight
D8.

269
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,800
It's kind.
Of like Kelly Buick almost OK.

270
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,160
Yeah, and I rolled 8.
God damn.

271
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,200
All right, exploding dice, give
me another roll.

272
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:55,920
Another D8?
Yep.

273
00:18:57,120 --> 00:19:04,760
OK, let's roll.
And that's a six.

274
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,520
So 14, is that Thunder damage?
Thunder damage.

275
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:14,600
So as as the action Wraith comes
in and just kind of like almost

276
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:18,160
does like a cloth swipe at you,
it hits you and you just become

277
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,800
frightened of this.
But at the same time you let

278
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:25,600
loose like this almost like a
foosro da from Skyrim.

279
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:29,920
And all of a sudden it just
shakes in place as it was just

280
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,560
hit with this monumental
Thunder.

281
00:19:33,360 --> 00:19:38,680
And it will it will make it
second attack at you again,

282
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:42,480
Ogman, I will say because of the
reaction, I do love the the

283
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,320
synergy of that.
I will roll that with

284
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:45,880
disadvantage because that was a
good play.

285
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:53,680
So this will be a Nacho one.
All right, let's pull out the

286
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:55,320
tables for the first time
tonight.

287
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,320
Sorry, Spence.
I love it.

288
00:20:01,360 --> 00:20:02,320
I love it.
No, it's a good play.

289
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,200
Last thing is like in and out of
out of game.

290
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:11,160
While I'm pulling this up here,
I learned a lot of my

291
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,720
descriptions on attacks, things
like that.

292
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,200
I cannot understate how much I
love Brennan Lee Mulligan.

293
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:24,600
He and the Legend.
He is incredible.

294
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,800
So especially now that I'm
watching the 4th campaign of

295
00:20:29,360 --> 00:20:33,360
Critical Role, I just, he's in
my head constantly and it makes

296
00:20:33,360 --> 00:20:35,920
it so much easier for me to do
these kind of things.

297
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:44,440
So let's roll D100.
That will be an 84.

298
00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:51,640
All right, so on that second
attack, his the Ashley race

299
00:20:51,640 --> 00:21:03,760
reflection kind of lashes out at
him and a doppelganger appears

300
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:08,120
for one minute and it will be
attacking that ashen wreath for

301
00:21:08,120 --> 00:21:12,480
the entirety of that minute.
So I will say that I will add

302
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:17,280
him to the combat.
There's a doppelganger in here.

303
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:20,240
It is Dang.
Noise.

304
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,040
I added two.
Of them didn't mean to do that.

305
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:24,960
Well, that sounds insane.
Have.

306
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,760
You seen?
Anything like that before?

307
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,960
I have actually in one of my
boundaries.

308
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:37,680
Yep, so the doppelganger is just
targeting action ray three that

309
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:41,800
will not affect anyone.
So you know I'm not one for meta

310
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,480
gaming, but I would strongly
recommend not attacking the

311
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:50,960
doppelganger.
So with that we'll then it will

312
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:52,440
then move to the doppelganger's
turn.

313
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:58,520
He will use 2 male attacks both
at the ash and race, so I'll

314
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:01,920
just roll both of these at the
same time to save some time.

315
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:11,120
And that is both of those will
hit on a slam attack, so that

316
00:22:11,120 --> 00:22:19,600
will be two D64.
So that's 1014 damage to the ash

317
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:20,600
and race.
Jesus.

318
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,320
All right, so as he comes down
to the second slash over an

319
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:31,120
augment misses completely, and
then he almost feels like a like

320
00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:37,160
a small as he turns around and
there's a doppelganger looking

321
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:42,800
just like the Ashton Wraith who
comes in and just slams the into

322
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:46,240
the Ashton Wraith for 14 damage.
And with that, we will move to

323
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:50,200
Zebulon.
All right, note to self, don't

324
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,120
spook augment.
Not a good joke.

325
00:22:57,360 --> 00:22:59,440
All right, so at the start of my
turn, I'm going to shout to

326
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:01,040
Savara.
Close your eyes.

327
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:04,880
OK, I close them.
All right.

328
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,160
And then I cast hypnotic image
or hypnotic pattern.

329
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,240
That's the one hypnotic pattern.
OK, what does that do?

330
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:16,800
It is a twisting pattern of
colors that weaves through the

331
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,920
air inside a 30 foot cube.
Should hit both of them and

332
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,120
Savara, but she can't see it
because her eyes are closed.

333
00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,520
Anybody who fails a Wisdom
saving throw becomes charmed for

334
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,200
the duration.
Well, charmed.

335
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,440
They are incapacitated and have
a speed of 0.

336
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,640
OK.
Great.

337
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:38,400
So one minute we will say that
all three of them are affected

338
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,960
by it.
So you said Wisdom saves for all

339
00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:46,400
of those, correct?
Yes, and my spell save is really

340
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:47,440
high.
It's 19.

341
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,200
All right, well.
All of them failed.

342
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:54,600
So all right, A2A5 and a 12 + 2
to each of those.

343
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,720
So yeah, So what what?
I apologize.

344
00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,520
What what happens if they fail
to save?

345
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,280
They're all incapacitated,
Charmed 0 movement.

346
00:24:03,360 --> 00:24:06,000
Jesus Christ, all right.
Noise.

347
00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,080
Capacitated to all three of
them.

348
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,040
All right, nice, very, very
nice.

349
00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:13,960
All right, so.
Do we just run?

350
00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:15,320
What does?
The team want to.

351
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,760
Do.
I'll, I'll give you guys, I'll

352
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,400
tell you what, I'll give you 60
seconds to talk it over.

353
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,200
Go.
I want a smash.

354
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,840
You want a smash, all right?
The one that the doppelganger is

355
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,280
already going for.
She cannot run.

356
00:24:31,120 --> 00:24:33,440
So yes, all of them are
incapacitated.

357
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,720
Let me pull up my conditions tab
again and not take actions or

358
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,680
reactions.
Fuck you, Zebulon.

359
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,960
All right, so.
If they take damage, it stops.

360
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:47,600
If they take damage it stops.
OK, so we will then.

361
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:51,080
Is that the end of your turn?
Yes, I've got a bonus action,

362
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,320
but I'm not going to do anything
with it.

363
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,720
I'm going to step away from the
fight 15 feet.

364
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,960
Stay at a distance.
OK.

365
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,200
And encourage my team to hit the
one that the doppelganger is

366
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:07,120
unstoppably attacking.
OK, with that, we'll move to the

367
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,120
second Ashton Wraith.
Good turn.

368
00:25:10,120 --> 00:25:11,160
OK, you're up.
You're up.

369
00:25:18,120 --> 00:25:19,600
So they're incapacitated, huh
all?

370
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,360
Of them, Yep.
It ends if they take damage or

371
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:26,600
if someone to shake the creature
out of it's stupor.

372
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,280
Shake otherwise.
You got a minute to ignore two

373
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:37,320
of them?
Don't shake them awake, please.

374
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,160
Don't shake them awake.
Real quick point of order

375
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:46,360
question, Savara your your frost
strike when they can't move,

376
00:25:46,360 --> 00:25:49,720
does that mean that they become
restrained?

377
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:56,480
It just means that their speed
is reduced reduced to 0 until

378
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,840
the start of my next turn.
OK.

379
00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:08,400
So their speed is just 0.
OK, so technically the Ash and

380
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,400
Race 2 will lose the frozen
condition, which I've designated

381
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,720
because that condition will end
if it's incapacitated, we'll

382
00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,640
say.
So everything is incapacitated

383
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:24,400
as of right now.
So we will say that we'll move

384
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:29,560
to Neros then.
I suppose we're going to do a

385
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:33,280
good old fashioned Channel
Divinity Turn Undead.

386
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:42,160
So as an action, each undead
creature that you can see or

387
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,880
hear within 30 feet of you must
make a Wisdom saving throw.

388
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:48,640
If it fails, it is turned for
one minute or until they take

389
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,680
any damage.
A turn creature must spend its

390
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,200
entire turn trying to move as
far from you as it can, and it

391
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,280
can't willingly move to a space
within 30 feet of you.

392
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:01,000
It also can't take reactions for
its action.

393
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,480
It can only use Dash to try to
get further.

394
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,200
If there's nowhere to move, the
creature can use the dot, the

395
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,480
dodge action.
OK.

396
00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:23,360
So I guess my first but.
It didn't do damage.

397
00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,560
So there's, yeah, I would say
the first question would be

398
00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:30,720
because they didn't take damage.
Hypnotic patterns still in

399
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:31,520
effect.
Right.

400
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,560
But in capacity they can't move
right.

401
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,880
Yes.
So like they can't do it all

402
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:41,200
until someone hits them and then
after that this would remain in

403
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,120
effect essentially.
Yep.

404
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,920
So basically we get two hits for
free.

405
00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:51,360
Yeah, OK, You know, we'll go
through a round where the first

406
00:27:51,360 --> 00:27:54,720
one will get hit, it'll be out
of its incapacitated, and then

407
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,800
it's going to be turned.
So it has to take its next round

408
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,360
trying to run away, which will
invoke a tax of opportunity from

409
00:28:01,360 --> 00:28:02,320
everybody around it.
OK.

410
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,320
OK.
And then it gets wisdom to save

411
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:08,240
it's.
Going to take.

412
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,040
Less than a.
Much less than a minute.

413
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,560
OK with some saves.
What's the DC?

414
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:26,320
16. 16 Well, I've got a natural
20 here, 18 here, and then a

415
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:33,800
twelve there.
So #3 will fail, so that will be

416
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,160
turn on dead.
We'll just call it.

417
00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:38,920
The other two will succeed the
froze.

418
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:41,320
Boo.
Boo.

419
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:46,880
OK.
Anything else?

420
00:28:49,920 --> 00:29:00,640
Can I do for a bonus action?
I think I'm done.

421
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,600
OK.
Next we will move to Osisa.

422
00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,800
OK so how do we do this?
I was sleeping and then just got

423
00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:13,240
woken up by the by the fight.
Correct.

424
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:14,680
Yeah, I apologize.
We didn't really bring you in.

425
00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:18,080
So we will effectively say that
you were travelling with the

426
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:24,280
team just during that initial.
You had a tummy ache, but you

427
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,160
feel better now, yeah.
Right now, yeah.

428
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:31,960
So you would have been in the in
the in the carriage, OK.

429
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,720
How long ago did Ogleman boil
someone with his pee?

430
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:40,360
That was about four hours ago.
Yeah, OK.

431
00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:47,200
Hey, real quick, Spencer, is
this a challenge rating of one

432
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,200
or less?
No.

433
00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:51,840
OK, nevermind.
Because if it was, it would have

434
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:56,240
died.
If it failed, oh good, OK.

435
00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,880
All right, so I'm going to.
Bust out of the carriage.

436
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,040
And be like, what is Shantae's
name?

437
00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:04,800
And then why does it smell like?
Piss.

438
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,320
And.
See the race they're.

439
00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:13,160
Like what the fuck is going?
On I'm going to attack the

440
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:19,400
Wraith that was being attacked
by the whatever it's called the

441
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:26,520
thank you.
Sorry Fuzzy, I assume a 26 hit.

442
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:32,240
Absolutely it is.
OK, this is going to be Guiding

443
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:44,440
Bolt, so that's going to be 6D6.
There we go.

444
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:48,560
Sorry, apps running slow.
OK, so that'll be 19 points of

445
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,160
radiant damage and that'll be my
turn.

446
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:58,720
OK, so you do your radiant
damage and you see as as the

447
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:04,960
radiant damage comes in this
this attack did a lot more

448
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,440
damage than you you think it
would have.

449
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:12,400
And when you cast that guiding
bolt, it almost like shrieks,

450
00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:16,120
but it doesn't have a mouth.
It doesn't have it's shrieking

451
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,560
in its in its in its brain.
So you're able to hear it's

452
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:24,560
shriek as it's just incinerated
by this guiding bolt.

453
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:29,760
And with that, anything else?
That'll be it.

454
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:37,920
Cool album with the Ogremen.
OK, so did that one die at all?

455
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:40,520
Probably not.
No, but it's not looking great.

456
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:44,200
It's it's pretty bloodied.
So would you say this is close

457
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:46,840
to like a fire Wraith type deal?
Not.

458
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:59,320
Necessarily OK, it does share a
lot of the same properties as a

459
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:07,440
as a Fire Wraith.
Oh, it's pretty much essentially

460
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:12,440
made-up of heat, correct?
Like flames per SE.

461
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:20,640
Not necessarily, it's more of a
ash style of also real quick.

462
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,960
I apologize Ogamen, I need you
to make me a wisdom same through

463
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,080
difficulty 15 please.
Oh God.

464
00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:39,080
Oh, Royd 14.
We will say, however, we we will

465
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:44,480
say that because I forgot that
you're already frightened, that

466
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:49,320
you begin to sense more dread
while standing next to this

467
00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,160
creature.
Yeah, I remember this.

468
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,840
Barely fight it off, but you are
still frightened of #3.

469
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,080
OK.
And that's the one that's like

470
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,480
directly in front of me, right?
Correct.

471
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,240
Yes.
OK.

472
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,680
And he is facing the
doppelganger, so I'm at his

473
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:13,000
back, you said.
You said he turned around.

474
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,320
Yeah, he turned around.
So that means would I have

475
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,680
advantage on my next attack
role?

476
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,120
I think disadvantage because
you're afraid.

477
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:28,480
I would say, well I would say
that he does get advantage,

478
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,800
however it cancels out the
disadvantage.

479
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,400
Yeah.
So yeah, you'll you'll take a

480
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,200
single normal role with this
one.

481
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:39,680
OK, well, I am going to try to
hit him with my staff of

482
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:46,880
withering.
OK, I'm assuming that's not

483
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,480
going to hit at all.
It's an 11 that does not.

484
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:57,400
OK, well, I don't know if
there's anything else I can do.

485
00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:07,040
Yeah, there is nothing else I
can do unless yeah, I'm just

486
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,960
going to chill I guess.
OK.

487
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:12,520
Let the doppelganger do its
thing.

488
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,040
Cool beans.
All right, next will be Ashton

489
00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:24,080
Wraith One's turn and so beyond.
Does it does it make a save on

490
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,000
on the beginning of a turn or
that's just it for the next?

491
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,880
It's not, it's just done.
I sent the text like the entire

492
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,760
text of it in the chat if you're
interested.

493
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:39,480
OK, perfect.
All right.

494
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,440
So that doesn't have a turn
because it's incapacitated.

495
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:47,440
So we will go to the top of the
round.

496
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:57,560
That will be Savara.
Well, a lot happened, so I was

497
00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:05,320
attacking #2 but Zebulon did a
thing, and there were.

498
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:07,520
Which one is he encouraging us
to hit?

499
00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:09,960
I'm encouraging you to hit the
one that everybody else is

500
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:14,760
hitting now, which is on
Augment. 3 #3.

501
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:19,720
So I mean, I mean, if I leave
because Two's incapacitated, I

502
00:35:19,720 --> 00:35:22,320
shouldn't have an attack of
opportunity, right?

503
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:24,040
Correct, Correct.
Correct.

504
00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:25,440
Yeah.
It doesn't have any and I'm

505
00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,600
going to three and I'm on a
whack them.

506
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,120
You go whack them.
All right, go ahead and make

507
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:37,920
your roll. 19.
That hits.

508
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:48,560
I'll just do 10 damage and then
I'll attack again. 12.

509
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,800
At misses so yeah, you'll come
in with your first strike and

510
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:58,320
just clobber the the race again
kind of in the side because it's

511
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,520
a lot taller than you so kind of
crack that again in the in the

512
00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:03,840
side.
And then the second attack, you

513
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:08,000
kind of come around and you miss
right above its head, going for

514
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:12,600
almost a a death kill.
So with that, it will then move

515
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:20,200
to the Ashen race turn.
Ashen Race 3's turn now.

516
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,040
Who is turned?
Yeah.

517
00:36:23,240 --> 00:36:28,280
So I apologize, Jesse, it's you
have to spend.

518
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,000
The entire turn running away
from me OK.

519
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:34,000
First things first, I'm going to
hate this.

520
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:37,200
I'm going to need opportunity
attacks from Ogemon, Zebulon,

521
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,080
and Savara.
So we'll just move in initiative

522
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:40,800
order.
Savara, if you want to give me

523
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,640
an attack of opportunity.
Yeah, but so 22.

524
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:50,960
It's. 9.
OK.

525
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:56,840
And then we'll go to Ogemon.
OK, I will use I'm.

526
00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,520
Going to say with disadvantage
again though because you are

527
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:07,840
frightened.
OK, that's a five.

528
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:09,560
Yeah, not hidden.
OK.

529
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,200
And then I apologize.
I skipped over Zebulon.

530
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:14,320
I apologize.
Zebulon, you could take your

531
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,280
your move.
I wasn't ready for this.

532
00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:19,280
Yeah.
So I've got Warcaster.

533
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:22,240
I can cast a spell.
I think I'm going to use fire

534
00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:24,760
bolt if he's like stepping away
from me.

535
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,640
Is that at disadvantage or can I
cast it?

536
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:29,320
Between.
The five and 10 foot.

537
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,840
Yeah, I will say that he's
moving more into the 10 foot

538
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:35,440
range as you being the last
person get the gets your

539
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:41,240
opportunity attack off.
All right, I rolled a 12 + 11.

540
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:42,680
That's a 20.
Three hits.

541
00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:56,480
Loving those magical items.
All right, so 2D10 that is 14

542
00:37:56,640 --> 00:38:01,680
fire damage.
OK, so Savara comes in and she

543
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,880
whacks this thing as it's going
by her.

544
00:38:04,240 --> 00:38:10,160
Ogemon goes to attack as well
and misses and then Zebulon kind

545
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:13,520
of as it's starting to get away
from you, you kind of wave your

546
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,400
hands together and pulse out of
a blast of flames and you see

547
00:38:17,720 --> 00:38:20,360
nothing would fire where the
Ashen Wraith would stand.

548
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,840
And as the smoke kind of clears,
it's still standing, having

549
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,160
taking no damage from Zebulon's
attack.

550
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:36,240
Having taken no damage.
All right, so then it will bolt

551
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,360
it's full movement away.
So that will be 40 feet away.

552
00:38:44,720 --> 00:38:48,080
So then we will move to oh, I
apologize.

553
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,120
The doppelganger gets an attack
of opportunity, too.

554
00:38:50,120 --> 00:39:03,680
It's 25 to hit.
Sure.

555
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:09,280
God, how do I want to do this?
All right, so that's the first

556
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,400
time I've ever killed with my
one of my own creatures.

557
00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:18,200
So so as Zebulon's fire blast
comes out, the doppelganger just

558
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:22,600
comes in and almost does like
AWWE body slam and just takes a

559
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:27,440
running start at the at the race
and just kind of jumps and slams

560
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,800
it into the ground.
And the Ashen Race just kind of

561
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:34,120
dissipates into ash and the air
kind of clears around where it

562
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:40,520
should have been and it is dead.
All right, so then that will

563
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:44,280
remove the double ganger and the
Ashen Race 3.

564
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:51,600
So that will move the Zebulon.
All righty well, I don't feel

565
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:55,360
necessarily as capable of waking
these monsters up as I think

566
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,920
some of my teammates might be,
so I'm going to hold my action

567
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,960
to cast Ray of Frost at the
first one that someone else

568
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:05,160
chooses to attack.
OK, with that, it will be the

569
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:11,440
second Ashen race turn, so it is
25 feet away, so it will move

570
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:16,000
towards Osisa.
Has anyone hit it yet?

571
00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:18,440
Yes.
Oh, I apologize.

572
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:20,440
Yep, it is incapacitated.
You are correct.

573
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:24,880
Big label on that's.
Why I'm waiting?

574
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:29,280
I don't want to wake it up.
Right, all right, next is Neros.

575
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:41,360
Oh boy.
I know what I want to do, but

576
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,880
it's going to wake everything
up.

577
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:50,320
I should probably not do that.
You could hold your action until

578
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:54,320
someone else wakes it up.
There's only two of them left,

579
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:55,840
right?
Yep, 1 and 2.

580
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:10,280
You know what I'll do instead?
I'm going to I'm going to cast

581
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:15,920
haste Twind.
OK, so I'm going to give haste

582
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:21,440
to myself.
And who else?

583
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:22,760
Who wants?
Who wants haste?

584
00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:29,920
What does that do?
They give you double movement.

585
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:33,560
Target speed is movement, or
target speed is doubled.

586
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:38,200
It gains +2 to its AC.
It has advantage on Dexterity

587
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:40,840
saving throws and gains an
additional attack or additional

588
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,400
action on each of its turns.
Yeah, action.

589
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:45,800
That's the key thing.
Yeah, that action can only be

590
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:50,640
used to take a weapon, attack,
dash, engage, hide, or use an

591
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,880
object.
Screw that, I'm gonna, I'm gonna

592
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:58,680
give it to Savara.
And Kezdea probably.

593
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:03,920
OK, all right, cool, 'cause they
both at well who?

594
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:10,680
Are. 2 Two hits per attack.
Yeah, definitely Savara, right.

595
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,480
But who's our other?
Do we have another like melee

596
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,560
focused?
Mimi was, but she's not here.

597
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:22,080
I mean, I would say, I'd say
Ogeman's your next option for as

598
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:28,400
far as melee style.
He's dabbling into spells, but

599
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:32,120
he's he's mostly melee.
OK, Ogaman then.

600
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:36,440
OK, cool.
So yeah, you both get +2 AC

601
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:40,280
advantage on deck saves and an
additional action that has to be

602
00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,800
used as it for the B attack and
a couple other things, but.

603
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:50,920
So yeah, Neuros, you kind of
turn both to Ogaman and Savara

604
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:55,440
to your right and almost gives
them like a word of

605
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,480
encouragement here on kind of
kind of deal.

606
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:07,000
And Savara and Ogeman, you feel
like this wave of security and

607
00:43:07,720 --> 00:43:10,680
almost of pride that you have
the ability to do more than you

608
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:14,000
normally could just in the way
that this battle is going.

609
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,040
So we'll move to and we will
and.

610
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:20,160
I'll end it with move faster,
get more, hit more.

611
00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:24,600
OK.
We will welcome Kasdea to the

612
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,200
show.
Kasdea, it is your turn.

613
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:32,600
Oh yay, my turn.
Hey, yay, I've been here the

614
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:34,240
whole time a little.
Did You Know?

615
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:39,320
Right, I'm gonna need to watch a
deception real quick.

616
00:43:40,440 --> 00:43:42,640
Oh, OK, hold on, let me I'm.
Kidding.

617
00:43:42,640 --> 00:43:44,160
I'm kidding somewhere.
Around here.

618
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:49,040
Oh, that's 19, my good man.
Yeah, OK.

619
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:53,200
You've been here the whole time.
I've been here the whole time.

620
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:58,000
I'm going to cast Eldridge
Blast.

621
00:43:58,000 --> 00:43:59,920
No, wait.
Yeah, I am.

622
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:01,880
I'm totally casting Eldridge
Blast.

623
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:03,560
I don't care.
I don't know what's happening.

624
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:08,920
OK.
What are we fighting even?

625
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,760
You are you are currently, you
are currently battling at this

626
00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:16,880
point now to Ashen race.
OK, cool.

627
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:19,000
Are they awake or are they still
sleepy?

628
00:44:19,240 --> 00:44:23,360
They're both incapacitated.
Incapacitated and I'm ready to

629
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:25,400
blast whatever 1 you wake up
first.

630
00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:29,240
Amazing and.
You've been instructed to attack

631
00:44:29,240 --> 00:44:31,760
one at a time.
Oh, OK, cool.

632
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:35,360
I'm going for two.
OK, go ahead and give me an

633
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:41,440
attack roll.
Oh fun, that's a 17.

634
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:47,160
That hits you have you have twin
blast right for your Eldridge

635
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:48,400
blast?
I do.

636
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,400
Why don't you just make a second
roll right away?

637
00:44:52,240 --> 00:45:01,120
OK, I have to figure out what
I'm rolling these.

638
00:45:01,240 --> 00:45:07,480
I'm rolling these 12.
The second one misses.

639
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,480
OK, so go ahead and give me
damage.

640
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,000
So as you roll your damage,
Yeah, you come out because they

641
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,960
kind of popped her head around
the the carriage.

642
00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:21,440
That's oh, hey, we're fighting
you kind of just almost over and

643
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,520
right next to her.
Oh, and I should.

644
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:25,400
Yeah, I'll get that up in a
second.

645
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:33,440
And right next to her.
You hear as we're held out how

646
00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:39,840
how this Modius is ready to go.
Caste will say that as Modius

647
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,240
will move in the same turn as
you because it's not necessarily

648
00:45:43,240 --> 00:45:45,520
specified that it has its own
initiative.

649
00:45:45,720 --> 00:45:49,440
So we'll just say that you can
take a turn for as Modius in

650
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,200
your same turn as well.
What is your role for damage?

651
00:45:56,000 --> 00:46:00,120
055.
And that's forced damage?

652
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,280
What?
That's forced damage, correct?

653
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:09,400
But I yeah, I think so.
OK, yes.

654
00:46:09,480 --> 00:46:10,160
Force damage.
OK.

655
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:12,480
Zebion, we'll move to your held
action.

656
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:17,520
Do I get to fire my she attack?
Yep, you can go ahead with your

657
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:22,240
Ray of Frost attack.
All right, rolled a 9 + 11 is a

658
00:46:22,240 --> 00:46:25,320
dirty 20.
Is a dirty 20.

659
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:29,560
So let's have you roll damage.
Now that's cold damage, correct?

660
00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:31,880
For Ray of Frost.
Yeah, 2D82.

661
00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:36,840
D8 OK. 3.
OK. 3 frost damage.

662
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:43,600
OK, so as Kez Daya kind of runs
around the the carriage starting

663
00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:46,800
to fight comes up to Ashen
Wraith #2 and we'll say you're

664
00:46:46,800 --> 00:46:50,440
what, 1520 feet away, Kez Daya?
Yeah, something like that

665
00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:56,320
you'll.
Kind of sum up the strengthen

666
00:46:56,320 --> 00:47:00,280
yourself and kind of throw your
hands out and Eldridge blast the

667
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:04,640
second Ashen Wraith and as you
do that Zebulon comes in right

668
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:06,720
behind you and throws out a ray
of frost.

669
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,040
The force damage does exactly
what it's supposed to.

670
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:11,960
The cold damage, however, did
not seem to do as much damage as

671
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:16,360
it should do.
Better than nothing like last

672
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:17,320
time.
Perfect.

673
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:22,440
All right.
And then do you want to Kenzie,

674
00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:27,960
do you want to move into as
Modius's turn, Laura?

675
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:30,400
Of course him is the goodest
boy.

676
00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:39,840
His is the goodest boy.
I think he's just gonna bite.

677
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:42,560
Him gonna bite, all right, he
gets.

678
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,920
An attack.
So you can make 2 attacks with.

679
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:50,360
Well, it can attack once with
its bite and once with the ender

680
00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:53,640
ember snap OK?
Otherwise you can do 2 bites if

681
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:59,440
you wish.
OK, now I'm going to do the bite

682
00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:01,400
and then the amber snap because
that sounds like fun, OK?

683
00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:05,960
So let's have him roll for a
hit.

684
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:12,080
That's a 17.
OK, that hits, so give me damage

685
00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:18,240
on the bite attack first, so
that'll be 2D tab +4.

686
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:23,080
OK, hold on, I gotta figure out
my life here.

687
00:48:46,100 --> 00:48:50,540
12. 12 points of piercing
damage.

688
00:48:50,540 --> 00:48:54,260
OK, and then I need 3.
I'm sorry, 3D6.

689
00:48:55,340 --> 00:48:59,020
Oh boy, math my favorite.
Math rocks.

690
00:49:00,780 --> 00:49:08,960
You said 3D6. 3D6 correct?
13. 13 points.

691
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:11,640
OK, so I.
Didn't realize I could click

692
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:14,320
more than once on the dice and
add them up and then I didn't

693
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,000
have to do it in my head.
That's nice.

694
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,240
So continuing.
Yeah, so he comes in and you

695
00:49:19,480 --> 00:49:23,040
after your Eldridge blast and
Zebulon's Ray Frost, you send in

696
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:28,440
Asmodeus to attack.
You know, choppers, sick balls.

697
00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:33,840
So he runs in and goes up to the
ashtray, hits a big bite, gets

698
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:38,040
the full attack, the full like
meat, if you will, with the

699
00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:40,560
bite.
However, with its subsequent

700
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:44,520
fire damage, it doesn't do as
much as you would think it does.

701
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:46,720
So then we'll move it to the
second attack.

702
00:49:46,720 --> 00:49:48,160
You want to do Ember Snap, you
said correct.

703
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:51,600
Yeah.
OK, so if money's looking,

704
00:49:51,600 --> 00:49:54,960
exhale a cone of ember flame
within 15 feet cone.

705
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,040
Nobody's standing within that
cone, so we don't have to worry

706
00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,720
about any of you getting hit.
So the only thing that we'll

707
00:49:59,720 --> 00:50:05,320
need to do is action #2 we'll
need to make a Dexterity saving

708
00:50:05,320 --> 00:50:08,640
throw, which it will critically
fail.

709
00:50:10,240 --> 00:50:22,080
I need you to give me 96.
And because it it because it

710
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:27,840
critically failed the save, I am
going to say he's going to take

711
00:50:27,840 --> 00:50:29,920
this full fire damage.
He's typically, they're

712
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:35,840
typically immune to fire damage,
but he critically failed.

713
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:39,920
So I need 96 of fire damage.
That's 34, Jesus.

714
00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:42,920
Christ.
OK, he actually right too.

715
00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:49,360
After that attack, he's just
kind of imagine like a drunk

716
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,120
person walking, but just like
hovering over the air or

717
00:50:52,120 --> 00:50:54,880
hovering over the ground.
He's kind of doing that motion.

718
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:58,200
He's just kind of woozy.
Cool.

719
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:04,120
Anything else guys there?
She's just going to pat Asmodeus

720
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:05,480
on the head.
Go good boy.

721
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,200
OK, so you're moving to
Asmodeus.

722
00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:20,880
Oh yeah, OK.
OK, with that I need we'll move

723
00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:27,720
to Osisa.
Osisa, because the national race

724
00:51:27,720 --> 00:51:31,120
is standing 5 feet away from
you, I need you to make me a

725
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:35,160
Wisdom saving throw please on AD
difficulty 15.

726
00:51:42,790 --> 00:51:45,990
Oh, nineteen.
That hits.

727
00:51:46,390 --> 00:51:49,870
Or that, sorry, that doesn't hit
you, you succeed, so you are not

728
00:51:49,870 --> 00:51:53,790
frightened by the action race,
so you can go ahead and start

729
00:51:53,790 --> 00:52:01,000
your turn, OK?
All right, Ashton Wraith 2, I

730
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:05,600
assume a 21 hits.
Yes, 21 hits, OK.

731
00:52:06,240 --> 00:52:12,280
I'm going to attack with guiding
bolt so that'll be 4D6.

732
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:20,360
That's radiant damage, so. 19
points of radiant damage.

733
00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:22,440
Oh.
God, so 38 points of radiant

734
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,560
damage.
It's so the second Ashton

735
00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:29,160
Wraith, you blast this with the
radiant damage and it just

736
00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:31,720
disintegrates.
However, because it is reduced

737
00:52:31,720 --> 00:52:42,720
to 0 points, I need Osisa,
Kazdea, Zebulon, Savara, and

738
00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:46,320
Ogemen.
I all I need all of you to give

739
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:49,760
me a Wisdom saving throw.
Difficulty 16.

740
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:57,320
We'll start with Kazdea.
I'm sorry, This is going to be

741
00:52:57,320 --> 00:52:58,760
everybody.
Nero's here and there as well.

742
00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:00,920
It's.
Going to be against fear or

743
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:03,960
charm.
No, this is going to be against

744
00:53:05,720 --> 00:53:09,240
looking ahead psychic damage as
it dies.

745
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:12,040
It will basically, and I should
have done this for the first one

746
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,400
but I completely forgot,
Basically it when it when it

747
00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:18,640
dies it shrieks and releases the
psychic wave as it.

748
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:20,920
What's the radius?
It's 10 feet.

749
00:53:20,920 --> 00:53:22,320
That's kind of sick.
So it was.

750
00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:25,360
Not that close.
I'm still not that close to us.

751
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:29,840
Too so ashen 3 and two were
right next to each other after

752
00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:32,400
the the second turn for the
Ashton rave.

753
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:35,720
So wherever was?
I wasn't there.

754
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:39,280
Right.
How tall is this room 'cause I'm

755
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:41,840
flying?
You're you're in, you're flying.

756
00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:43,440
We're we're, we're outside.
Yeah, we're.

757
00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:46,880
In We're outside.
I'm at least 30 feet in the air.

758
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:48,760
Forgot about the broom.
OK, nearest you're not included

759
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:52,520
in this.
I was by #3 when it died.

760
00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:56,000
Right.
So that's within, basically they

761
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:58,920
were within 5 feet of each other
and everybody was standing

762
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:01,160
around 3.
So you're within 10 feet there.

763
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:03,200
Oh yeah.
I assume they came after.

764
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,960
Me nearest I'll give you, I'll
say that because you are

765
00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:10,040
floating on a broom like a
pretty pretty Princess that

766
00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:12,640
you'll stay out of this.
Everybody else in the wisdom

767
00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:14,960
saving throw.
Kez Daya, what did you roll?

768
00:54:17,880 --> 00:54:19,800
Let's just say my dice is going
in jail.

769
00:54:19,800 --> 00:54:23,400
I rolled up 1.
OK, good start.

770
00:54:23,720 --> 00:54:27,040
Yeah, that guy is in jail for
the remainder of forever.

771
00:54:27,040 --> 00:54:28,320
So here we are.
OK.

772
00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:42,680
All right, Ogemon. 9.
OK, Savara or OK Osisa?

773
00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:46,840
Net 20 so I got a 27.
Total.

774
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:49,960
Oh yeah.
OK, you want to save me some of

775
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:51,000
that?
Good luck please.

776
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:55,200
Oh my God, absolutely.
So.

777
00:54:55,720 --> 00:54:57,560
I just came in here.
I was like, oh look, we're

778
00:54:57,560 --> 00:54:59,280
fighting.
Oh look, I'm dying.

779
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:03,320
And then Zebulon.
I got A7.

780
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:07,280
Got a seven.
OK, so let me grab a couple D

781
00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:15,320
sixes here.
OK.

782
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:19,280
Do I have to do a saving throw
for as Asmodeus too?

783
00:55:20,240 --> 00:55:24,080
Oh yes, thank you.
He's got, he's got a Wisdom

784
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:29,120
modifier of for saving throw +6.
OK.

785
00:55:30,880 --> 00:55:37,280
Oh, that's a 19, OK.
So. 23 days there, OK.

786
00:55:45,640 --> 00:55:49,560
Kenzie, do you have as as
Modius's stat thing in front of

787
00:55:49,560 --> 00:55:50,760
you?
It's.

788
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:52,840
Yeah, I can get it real quick.
It's.

789
00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:56,600
I'm going to recommend using his
reaction guardian flame when

790
00:55:56,600 --> 00:55:59,320
Castaia takes damage, as Modi's
can teleport to a space within 5

791
00:55:59,320 --> 00:56:02,160
feet of her and immediately have
the damage she takes from that

792
00:56:02,160 --> 00:56:03,080
source.
That's once a day.

793
00:56:03,080 --> 00:56:08,840
OK OK OK, so you'll take half
damage here.

794
00:56:09,160 --> 00:56:15,080
Everybody else that failed you
will take Jesus 8 psychic

795
00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:18,720
damage.
I was waiting for you to say 50

796
00:56:18,720 --> 00:56:20,080
or something.
It's not too.

797
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:22,440
Yeah, it's not bad at all.
These are not high-powered

798
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:24,240
these.
This is just one of those random

799
00:56:24,240 --> 00:56:25,120
encounters.
They're not.

800
00:56:26,240 --> 00:56:33,280
And then everybody else takes
half that, so 4 psychic damage.

801
00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:42,280
So I take. 8 damage if you fail
the role.

802
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:47,240
Yes, you take 8 psychic damage.
OK.

803
00:56:47,360 --> 00:56:50,800
And with that, we will move to
Ogeman.

804
00:56:52,400 --> 00:57:01,440
OK, well I still have that buff
that Nero's blessed me with, and

805
00:57:01,440 --> 00:57:04,160
so the there's only #1 left,
right?

806
00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:07,600
Correct.
Yeah, Action race number one is

807
00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:11,480
kind of standing about 25 feet
away and he doesn't really have

808
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:14,600
a face so much, you know, he's
just kind of that dark figure

809
00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:19,640
action action kind of color.
And you can, you can look at him

810
00:57:19,640 --> 00:57:21,720
and you can tell like even
though he doesn't have a face,

811
00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:24,280
he's got that face, that look of
worry on his face.

812
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,800
Well, I get 2 attacks, right?
Yes, you do.

813
00:57:28,720 --> 00:57:31,160
So I am 2.
Attack actions, yeah.

814
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:34,120
Yeah.
Sorry 2 actions so if you have

815
00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:37,360
like if you had multi attack or
something you.

816
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:40,360
Yeah, I, I do not.
I do not.

817
00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:51,120
So I am going to, I guess I
don't know, let me see here.

818
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:55,800
Sorry.
But you can use one to like.

819
00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:59,320
You could use one to cast a
spell and then use your extra 1

820
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:01,720
to take.
Yeah, that's.

821
00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:05,280
Something like that, you know.
That's what I'm probably going

822
00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:09,240
into doing if you want to type.
Your thing almost certainly

823
00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:12,680
would have.
Yeah, I am going to.

824
00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:17,120
That's what the plan was.
I was going to wild shape into a

825
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:20,480
hell hound.
OK.

826
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:33,680
So I will use that and then I'm
sorry, I guess I have to look at

827
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:34,160
the.
I've got it up.

828
00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:36,480
Here.
So you've got, you've got

829
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:37,360
packed.
A bite.

830
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:39,960
And you've got a bite attack and
fire breath.

831
00:58:40,840 --> 00:58:50,120
OK, so I guess I am going to do
a bite attack for sure.

832
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:59,200
I guess I roll D20 for that.
I get advantage right?

833
00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:06,040
Just pack tactics.
No, nobody is standing around #1

834
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:09,120
number one has not been targeted
except.

835
00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:11,680
For you said they were within 5
feet of each other, so that

836
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:15,560
means there'd.
Be two and three when they moved

837
00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:18,440
closer to you guys.
We're we're next to each other,

838
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:19,880
but number one has not moved
yet.

839
00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:23,000
Number one has a single turn,
technically because he was

840
00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:25,280
immediately incapacitated by
Zebulon.

841
00:59:26,080 --> 00:59:28,920
Well, then I'm going to try that
again, I guess.

842
00:59:29,120 --> 00:59:36,400
I don't know.
Yeah, I guess so.

843
00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:44,200
Fuck, I ain't hitting shit.
Yeah, well, that was a waste.

844
00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:46,640
Would you roll?
A5.

845
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:49,480
OK.
Plus 5-10, yeah, that does not

846
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:53,560
hit.
The first one was at 13, so

847
00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:59,000
yeah.
Oh, you're not no longer

848
00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:00,600
frightened, dude.
Yeah, I apologize.

849
01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:04,320
Yeah, that was the frightened
left once the the the the third

850
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:07,400
action race died.
So if you rolled that with

851
01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:11,600
disadvantage to know if you
rolled a 13 that in that's +5.

852
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:13,720
So you would have rolled an 18.
That's a hit.

853
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:20,200
Oh, OK.
So give me damage will be 1 D 8

854
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,480
+ 3.
OK.

855
01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:26,320
And then 2D6 fire damage, which
I'm just going to tell you right

856
01:00:26,320 --> 01:00:30,320
now, don't even bother rolling
the fire damage.

857
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:34,520
So it's A7. 7 piercing OK.
Yeah.

858
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:39,200
All right.
Anything else, my good Sir?

859
01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:46,040
Anything else?
I think we've lost Ogeman.

860
01:00:49,040 --> 01:00:50,520
Oh, there you are.
I got to hear you.

861
01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:52,840
Yeah.
Was that it for you?

862
01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:56,080
Yeah, just to like, in my turn,
growling at him.

863
01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:58,840
Yeah, so basically your turn,
you just transform into this

864
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:02,080
almost look like he's as Modius
a little bit with the Hell Hound

865
01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:07,040
features and you come in at #1
and you just chomp down on him

866
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:12,600
and get a good hunk of hunk of
ash in your mouth and deal the

867
01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:15,600
deal that damage.
So next we will move to the

868
01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:24,320
Ashen race turn.
And it will.

869
01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:35,000
It will first use its blinding
burst attack and it's going to

870
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:39,880
put the radius in front of him.
It's a 10 foot radius.

871
01:01:39,880 --> 01:01:42,760
So it will only target Ogeman in
this instance because he is the

872
01:01:42,760 --> 01:01:44,600
only one standing next to the
Wraith.

873
01:01:45,920 --> 01:01:52,920
So I need you Ogaman to make me
ADC 16 Constitution saving throw

874
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:57,280
please.
All right.

875
01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:02,240
They just aren't for me today.
That's A7.

876
01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:05,600
Beautiful.
All right, let me pull out some

877
01:02:05,640 --> 01:02:13,320
D eights here.
I mean I got the Tim hid points

878
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:16,000
for the hell hound.
How many hit points do you have?

879
01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:18,440
The temp ones from the hellhound
OH.

880
01:02:19,480 --> 01:02:20,440
Yeah, OK.
Let's Yeah.

881
01:02:21,640 --> 01:02:26,400
All right.
So that's going to be 6-8. 10.

882
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:34,200
15 fire damage and you are
blinded until your next turn.

883
01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:38,920
Let's go 50.
So isn't it?

884
01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:41,840
Aren't hellhounds supposed to be
like kind of immune to fire

885
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:48,640
damage?
Asking for a friend you.

886
01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:51,800
Are correct yeah it is
completely immune to fire damage

887
01:02:52,080 --> 01:02:56,840
Good good call I didn't I didn't
see that so OK so you will take

888
01:02:56,840 --> 01:03:01,200
instead no damage and then the
second attack he'll come in with

889
01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:05,480
the ash and touch again he'll
just take a claw attack at you

890
01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:11,000
and he will hold a natural 2
cool that'll just.

891
01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:13,600
That definitely miss.
Yep.

892
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:15,920
Yeah, you're you're AC.
Am I still?

893
01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:18,040
Am I still allowed?
Oh no I can't.

894
01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:24,080
I don't know how that works.
So am I able to do a reaction

895
01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:29,360
still to that?
I'll allow it because

896
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:32,000
technically I did hit you.
It's just none of the, none of

897
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:35,520
the damage took hold.
So I will allow, I will allow

898
01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:39,080
that, yeah.
OK, well I'm going to hit him

899
01:03:39,080 --> 01:03:48,120
with another D8 of Thunder and
he takes 3 Thunder damage 3.

900
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:54,000
Thunder damage.
OK, perfect.

901
01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:56,760
All right.
Anything else for me?

902
01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:58,000
Why?
Am I asking you welcoming all?

903
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:00,400
Right.
No.

904
01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:03,320
I was going to say no, it's not
my turn.

905
01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:08,920
It's line and burst Cool.
Next we will hit top of the

906
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:11,720
order.
Savara, it is your turn.

907
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:14,120
Well, hello there.
Hello.

908
01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:18,440
I'm going to go whack A numero
Uno whacking.

909
01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:21,200
El numero Uno.
Take a swing there, Savara.

910
01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:23,240
Remember you get the second
action so you can.

911
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:26,200
I guess I do.
I get like a whole bunch of

912
01:04:26,200 --> 01:04:33,080
stuff four times, Yeah.
And my AC is much higher.

913
01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:37,160
Yeah.
So 19 for the first one that.

914
01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:41,480
Hits, I tell you.
Why don't you roll me all four

915
01:04:41,480 --> 01:04:43,120
hits?
And then we can decide at that

916
01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,440
point where you want it if you
want to use any superiority

917
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:54,200
dice.
Sure, 18. 18 hits. 22. 22 hits.

918
01:04:55,080 --> 01:05:01,960
Oh, that fell Nap 20.
Boy oh boy, dream of dreams.

919
01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:07,120
OK, let's resolve the first
three attacks first.

920
01:05:08,120 --> 01:05:09,920
Sure.
Lost time on that last game.

921
01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:16,280
Yeah, I'm just gonna leave them
as is honestly, OK.

922
01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:17,800
So let's just tell the first 3
ones.

923
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:34,760
Hey, so we have 18 + 10 + 4, so
that's 282132.

924
01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:37,800
Yeah, sure.
Yep, I can math.

925
01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:44,120
Cool, and now before you roll
damage on the critical success,

926
01:05:44,720 --> 01:06:02,240
go ahead and give me a Romeo
D12. 3. 3 Where did it go?

927
01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:08,520
There it is OK for an instant
time kind of slows down as

928
01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:10,080
you're making this fourth
attack.

929
01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:13,120
The first three attacks and
you're just like a Wham bam,

930
01:06:13,120 --> 01:06:16,680
thank you ma'am kind of attack.
As you hit the first 3 ones and

931
01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:19,280
then the 4th 1.
You almost have a slow motion

932
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:23,720
where you turn around and cleave
almost this fourth with this

933
01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:37,120
fourth attack on this action
race Roll me damage first. 16.

934
01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:41,480
16 OK and then because of your
critical success, you may re

935
01:06:41,480 --> 01:06:43,800
roll one of those damaged dice
one more time.

936
01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:49,560
I already rolled 2.
Oh, so that was the entire 16?

937
01:06:50,160 --> 01:06:51,160
Yeah.
Gotcha.

938
01:06:51,160 --> 01:06:55,320
OK, for the rest of you, give me
a perception check.

939
01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:06,320
Basically anything above A5.
Does a 5 count £5 I need?

940
01:07:07,320 --> 01:07:12,880
To beat my friend.
And I would want to know like

941
01:07:12,880 --> 01:07:17,800
how bloodied up is he?
We're that's where we're getting

942
01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:19,040
to.
I'm just making sure everybody

943
01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:22,320
succeeds to fail.
So did anybody roll below A5?

944
01:07:25,120 --> 01:07:29,280
Perfect.
OK, so all of you see Savara

945
01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:34,600
just go ham on this Ashen race
123.

946
01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:36,800
And then she takes a deep
breath, turns around and

947
01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:40,120
uppercuts this race with with
her warhammer.

948
01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:44,160
This race is not looking great
at all.

949
01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:51,880
It's it's very bloodied.
I'm going to action search my.

950
01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:56,400
God, OK.
Savar to do it one more time.

951
01:07:57,360 --> 01:08:00,480
Do it one more time, Savar.
'S fucking mad all right you got

952
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:10,920
to do Jack shit the last time I
am not about this 25 that hits

953
01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:12,080
let's just.
Yes.

954
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:22,520
So that's 12 damage on that
dude, and then again, OK, 22.

955
01:08:22,520 --> 01:08:27,760
That hits.
And that would be 11 so much

956
01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:30,439
damage control. 23 How do you
want?

957
01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:34,600
To do this.
She is going off just the

958
01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:39,319
deepest fucking 'cause she just
uppercut him too, you know, And

959
01:08:39,319 --> 01:08:43,200
she takes her hand and she
raises it above her arm and just

960
01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:47,720
right through his skull.
I love it.

961
01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:49,680
I love it.
That was yeah.

962
01:08:49,920 --> 01:08:53,680
Oh damn.
She she's done, she she cannot

963
01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:59,160
the the last one pissed her off.
You guys see as a Savara

964
01:08:59,960 --> 01:09:04,760
finishes her her effectively her
turn the last action Wraith

965
01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:09,640
falls.
I do need Ogeman and Savara to

966
01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:15,120
give me one final wisdom check.
Ogeman, you get advantage

967
01:09:15,120 --> 01:09:24,880
because you are a hellhound.
Jesus Christ.

968
01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:32,399
Well, she's too mad to care 7.
I tell you what, on that fourth

969
01:09:32,399 --> 01:09:36,640
attack, in your final attack,
you were able to basically hit

970
01:09:36,640 --> 01:09:41,680
it to the point where it was.
It kind of flew back 1520 feet.

971
01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:47,680
And you as it explodes into ash
about 20 feet away from Savara

972
01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:55,280
and Ogeman, you see Savara turn
around and go, OK, what's next?

973
01:09:55,800 --> 01:10:01,320
And.
Then literally it was one of

974
01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:07,360
those moments where you look
it's like when Thor is throwing

975
01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:14,160
around Loki at the on the 1st
Avengers movie just back up,

976
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:18,960
she's just hammering him and
walks away with him just barely

977
01:10:18,960 --> 01:10:23,200
screeching.
OK.

978
01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:27,080
So anything you guys need to do
before you continue on?

979
01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:36,040
OK, so as you continue on again,
the last of the Ashen race just

980
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:39,280
unravel beneath your assault,
the ember light gutting

981
01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:42,120
guttering out in a long
shivering sigh.

982
01:10:42,480 --> 01:10:45,880
It's ash scatters in the
volcanic wind, dissolving before

983
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:49,120
it can even touch the ground,
and the echo of their hymn

984
01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:54,000
lingers, faint and mournful,
before it fades entirely into

985
01:10:54,000 --> 01:10:57,400
the hum of the mountain.
The plateau is silent again.

986
01:10:57,640 --> 01:11:00,920
No bodies, no blood, only the
faint shimmer of memory glass

987
01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:03,600
where your where your blow
struck true.

988
01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:08,040
Every surface reflects back.
Fragments of the light, flashes

989
01:11:08,040 --> 01:11:11,320
of firelight, silhouettes of
motion, and even the whispers of

990
01:11:11,320 --> 01:11:13,440
your names.
The Shatter Peaks themselves

991
01:11:13,840 --> 01:11:17,840
seem to have just recorded the
slaughter that just happened.

992
01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:22,280
The carriage creaks forward once
once more along the slope.

993
01:11:22,520 --> 01:11:26,160
The road descends, winding
between the ridges, now painted

994
01:11:26,160 --> 01:11:29,440
in orange light as the sun sinks
behind the jagged horizon.

995
01:11:29,840 --> 01:11:33,440
Ash drifts down in soft flakes,
catching the dying sunlight like

996
01:11:33,440 --> 01:11:36,280
almost snowflakes of burning
silver.

997
01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:40,840
Excuse me.
Far below where the Ashton Belt

998
01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:45,960
begins, the first fires of the
Pyre Heart stronghold gleam

999
01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:50,160
faintly off in the distance, in
a heartbeat of red orange at the

1000
01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:57,040
world's edge.
I need someone to roll me AD 12.

1001
01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:06,040
I can do it.
There you go guys. 8 all.

1002
01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:19,400
Right.
You said 8.

1003
01:12:20,480 --> 01:12:28,000
Yep.
OK, so the last of the light of

1004
01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:30,360
the day die slowly in the
Shatter peaks.

1005
01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:33,840
You begin to make camp.
The stars are veiled, but the

1006
01:12:33,840 --> 01:12:37,320
mountain glows from within.
Cracks in the rock pulse with

1007
01:12:37,320 --> 01:12:40,560
molten light, like the world
itself still remembers the forge

1008
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,400
it once was.
Your campfire burns low, fed

1009
01:12:43,400 --> 01:12:46,440
only by the faint heat of the
vents beneath the Ridge.

1010
01:12:46,920 --> 01:12:51,120
The wind carries the distant hum
of the volcano, a slow, rhythmic

1011
01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:54,520
throb that matches the heartbeat
of the land.

1012
01:12:55,440 --> 01:13:00,400
Then, through the haze of heat
shimmer and drifting soot, a

1013
01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:04,440
shadow moves.
At first it looks like a piece

1014
01:13:04,440 --> 01:13:07,320
of the mountain shifting, A
jagged black silhouette rising

1015
01:13:07,320 --> 01:13:10,320
higher than the tree line.
Then it moves again, almost

1016
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:12,800
deliberate, dragging something
that scrapes against the stone

1017
01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:15,120
with the sound of Thunder, muted
by snow.

1018
01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:20,720
Out of the ash storm emerges a
giant, easily 20 feet tall, his

1019
01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:24,400
skin cracked and blackened as if
carved from cooling magma.

1020
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:28,000
Patches of molten light pulse
from beneath his flesh and

1021
01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:30,920
beneath his armor, but not
flame, but embers.

1022
01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:34,840
Embers of something older,
sustained by faith rather than

1023
01:13:34,840 --> 01:13:37,800
life.
He walks slowly, each step

1024
01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:41,440
leaving a shallow crater that
glows faintly before dimming.

1025
01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:45,120
His face is obscured by a helm
of fused glass and iron.

1026
01:13:45,480 --> 01:13:48,880
One eye socket is dark, the
other burns faintly red.

1027
01:13:50,240 --> 01:13:54,600
Across his back is a massive,
half melted great sword,

1028
01:13:54,880 --> 01:13:58,480
dragging behind him like a
comet's tail, it's edge

1029
01:13:58,480 --> 01:14:01,920
constantly shedding sparks as he
draws near.

1030
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:05,240
You realize?
Everybody give me a perception

1031
01:14:05,240 --> 01:14:22,000
check. 13. 16. 20. 2020. 21.
All right, so you have the

1032
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:24,960
option here.
As you as he draws near to you,

1033
01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:29,520
you realize he's blind.
His movements are careful, his

1034
01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:31,600
head tilting towards every
sound.

1035
01:14:31,960 --> 01:14:34,760
He hums almost underneath his
breast or breath.

1036
01:14:34,760 --> 01:14:37,160
Excuse me?
A low, broken tune.

1037
01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:43,680
Faith is a forge, but the gods
forgot to temper the steel.

1038
01:14:44,440 --> 01:14:47,600
He stops, nostrils flaring at
the scent of your campfire.

1039
01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:52,040
His head turns towards you,
almost unseen, but something in

1040
01:14:52,040 --> 01:14:54,480
the air tells you he feels you
there.

1041
01:14:55,200 --> 01:14:57,760
The mountain burns again.
He murmurs.

1042
01:14:58,280 --> 01:15:03,320
They wake her heart again.
So at this point, I mean, you

1043
01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:05,000
have three options at this
point.

1044
01:15:05,880 --> 01:15:12,920
You can approach him, you can
stay completely silent and

1045
01:15:12,920 --> 01:15:19,960
attempt to basically have him
move on, or you can straight up

1046
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:21,880
attack him.
Those are your options.

1047
01:15:25,880 --> 01:15:33,640
Can I roll perception or
something to determine his his

1048
01:15:33,640 --> 01:15:35,440
demeanor right like.
Sure.

1049
01:15:35,440 --> 01:15:37,320
Is he?
Maybe insight?

1050
01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:38,320
Yeah, I.
Was gonna say why don't you give

1051
01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:41,080
me an insight check for that.
Can I do it too?

1052
01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:43,800
Yeah, anybody that wants to roll
an Insight can definitely roll

1053
01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:45,000
an Insight.
I got 25.

1054
01:15:48,560 --> 01:15:50,680
OK.
So 13.

1055
01:15:50,960 --> 01:15:52,920
OK, Gene, real quick.
Where are you?

1056
01:15:52,960 --> 01:15:55,760
Again.
Oh I got a Nat 20.

1057
01:15:56,240 --> 01:15:57,720
I thought I was with them.
No, no.

1058
01:15:58,280 --> 01:15:59,440
In real life.
Are you at home?

1059
01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:01,160
Yeah.
OK.

1060
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,920
I need you to take your dice and
eat them out the door.

1061
01:16:08,280 --> 01:16:10,800
Yeah, homie.
You know what, I've been using

1062
01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:14,360
the the digital dice.
I'm going to go get my regular

1063
01:16:14,360 --> 01:16:15,440
dice.
Yeah.

1064
01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:17,360
There's.
Your problem.

1065
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:20,200
Yeah.
Throw your phone outside, Yeah.

1066
01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:21,840
Yeah, yeah, Throw your phone as
hard as.

1067
01:16:21,880 --> 01:16:26,480
Yeah.
So with all of your insights, he

1068
01:16:26,480 --> 01:16:33,160
is not necessarily hostile.
It almost seems like he's

1069
01:16:33,160 --> 01:16:39,400
marching towards something that
he is needing to do, and he

1070
01:16:39,400 --> 01:16:48,120
doesn't have necessarily a any
worry about what he senses so

1071
01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:55,160
far with the six of you.
Hey, where are you headed?

1072
01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:58,000
Can.
You say that out loud.

1073
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:00,000
Oh shit.
Yeah.

1074
01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:02,160
He was mumbling in common,
right?

1075
01:17:02,160 --> 01:17:03,880
Yeah, yeah, he was mumbling in
common.

1076
01:17:04,920 --> 01:17:07,520
So you're going to you said what
again?

1077
01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:11,920
Hey, where are you headed?
Who said that?

1078
01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:19,320
It is I Neros.
And you see him kind of out of

1079
01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:23,280
almost instinct, kind of pull
the great, the half melted great

1080
01:17:23,280 --> 01:17:26,520
sword out from his back and just
kind of hold it, not necessarily

1081
01:17:26,520 --> 01:17:31,160
in a hostile way, more of a
frightening.

1082
01:17:31,160 --> 01:17:34,520
Yeah, I'll meet that with a calm
yourself.

1083
01:17:34,520 --> 01:17:39,040
I mean you no harm and I wish to
not prevent you from continuing

1084
01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:44,200
on your path.
I'm just curious to know what it

1085
01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:46,760
is you're doing, where you're
going, and what's your

1086
01:17:46,760 --> 01:18:00,280
objective?
OK, give me a you're not

1087
01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:04,040
necessarily lying, correct?
You're you actually legitimately

1088
01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:05,720
wondering what he, where he,
what he's doing?

1089
01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:08,240
That's at this point, yeah.
Sure.

1090
01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:13,040
The giant kind of pauses mid
stride when you speak, and for a

1091
01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:14,960
moment the mountain seems to
hush again.

1092
01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:17,920
Listening to see whether it's
such a question almost deserves

1093
01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:21,760
an answer.
The giant steps slow, grinding,

1094
01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:25,320
the grinding of molten stone
beneath his feet soften until

1095
01:18:25,320 --> 01:18:29,680
the sounds until it sounds like
almost cracking of old ice.

1096
01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:33,200
He almost tilts his head towards
where the sound of Neros his

1097
01:18:33,200 --> 01:18:36,200
voice came from.
The single ember in his right

1098
01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:39,040
eye is flickering like a candle
caught in the breeze.

1099
01:18:39,640 --> 01:18:41,480
When he speaks, his tone isn't
hostile.

1100
01:18:41,480 --> 01:18:43,480
It's, it's tired.
The kind of fatigue that comes

1101
01:18:43,480 --> 01:18:47,000
with, you know, basically
holding the world up for too

1102
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:50,440
long.
And he says down.

1103
01:18:52,400 --> 01:18:56,360
The word echoes carried through
the heat like a slow bell.

1104
01:18:56,720 --> 01:19:00,120
He drags his broken sword once,
like the sound again, the sound

1105
01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:03,960
of Thunder rolling on stone.
I go with a mountain.

1106
01:19:03,960 --> 01:19:07,120
Dreams to the heart where she
sleeps.

1107
01:19:07,640 --> 01:19:11,880
They stir her again, the
priests, the Dominion, the ones

1108
01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:14,000
who sing with glass in their
throats.

1109
01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:17,680
They would wake her to forge the
world anew.

1110
01:19:18,480 --> 01:19:21,880
And he kind of kneels slightly,
the motion sending cracks,

1111
01:19:21,880 --> 01:19:23,400
spider webbing through the
ground.

1112
01:19:23,800 --> 01:19:28,560
His blind gaze fixes roughly on
where Neros is standing.

1113
01:19:29,240 --> 01:19:33,560
He says.
I was her keeper once, the

1114
01:19:33,560 --> 01:19:37,480
forged hand of Pyre Heart.
I quenched her rage when the

1115
01:19:37,480 --> 01:19:40,680
gods fled.
Now I can only follow her

1116
01:19:40,680 --> 01:19:44,000
heartbeat.
The heat around him intensifies,

1117
01:19:44,000 --> 01:19:48,760
not painful, but almost solemn
and reverent.

1118
01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:51,800
He exhales.
A plume of smoke drifts from his

1119
01:19:51,800 --> 01:19:55,520
mouth, curling upwards in the
shape of a tower and then a

1120
01:19:55,520 --> 01:19:59,920
crown, and then nothing at all,
he says.

1121
01:20:00,560 --> 01:20:04,840
Tell your masters that the gates
of Pyre Heart do not need

1122
01:20:04,840 --> 01:20:07,960
guards.
The mountain keeps her own.

1123
01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:16,520
And with a slow, deliberate
motion, he lifts an item almost

1124
01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:20,280
from his belt.
It's a molten Shard, kind of

1125
01:20:20,440 --> 01:20:24,440
pulsing faintly in his palm.
And he kind of extends it

1126
01:20:24,440 --> 01:20:28,160
towards you near us.
And he says, if you still carry

1127
01:20:28,160 --> 01:20:34,360
purpose, he says, take this.
It listens to flame, but answers

1128
01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:36,200
to will.
OK, good.

1129
01:20:36,520 --> 01:20:38,640
OK.
I won't even wait for him to.

1130
01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:44,800
Stop so I I have a question for
this guy.

1131
01:20:45,680 --> 01:20:50,920
Hang on one second, so nearest
the the Shard that you have is

1132
01:20:51,240 --> 01:20:55,280
a.
It's heavy but warm, almost

1133
01:20:55,280 --> 01:20:59,800
unnaturally, humming faintly to
now your heartbeat, so every

1134
01:20:59,800 --> 01:21:03,640
time your heart beats it, it
glows just a little bit more, if

1135
01:21:03,720 --> 01:21:06,080
just for a moment.
It almost feels alive.

1136
01:21:06,200 --> 01:21:10,560
The giant straightens up again,
almost turning towards the

1137
01:21:10,560 --> 01:21:15,160
calderas distant glow.
He says the path grows short,

1138
01:21:15,320 --> 01:21:18,120
little flame when you reach her
gates.

1139
01:21:18,600 --> 01:21:21,680
Remember who lit the fire 1st?
And Ogerman.

1140
01:21:21,680 --> 01:21:22,760
You wanted to ask him a
question.

1141
01:21:23,880 --> 01:21:26,640
Yeah, I want to ask him if he's
an ally or an enemy of the

1142
01:21:26,640 --> 01:21:31,560
Dominion, because he mentioned
the Dominion.

1143
01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:38,440
So you ask, are you an ally or
enemy of the Dominion?

1144
01:21:38,440 --> 01:21:40,640
The wind kind of hollows or
howls.

1145
01:21:40,640 --> 01:21:43,320
Excuse me once more through the
Ridge, carrying the scent of

1146
01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:48,320
molten stone and iron.
The sounds, the sound steals him

1147
01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:52,560
as he goes to start going, as he
starts to start walking again.

1148
01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:55,680
He goes.
Dominion.

1149
01:21:57,240 --> 01:21:59,920
That name changes hands every
few centuries.

1150
01:22:01,160 --> 01:22:04,440
Men build walls and call, call
them eternity.

1151
01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:08,480
He turns more fully now, so that
a single glowing eye is now

1152
01:22:08,480 --> 01:22:09,680
facing you.
Ogman.

1153
01:22:10,120 --> 01:22:13,680
The giant's voice deepens, until
it feels less like sound and

1154
01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:17,160
more like the mountain itself is
remembering how to speak.

1155
01:22:18,640 --> 01:22:21,880
He goes.
Once I I built their their

1156
01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:26,280
weapons, I tempered their faith,
I forged the first ember plate

1157
01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:31,000
that carried the sealed flames
mark the wind kind of shifts and

1158
01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:33,560
his voice softens and almost
sorrowful.

1159
01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:36,680
He says.
When they forgot what the fire

1160
01:22:36,680 --> 01:22:39,960
was for.
I burnt their forges shut.

1161
01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:43,440
His head lowers.
I am no would.

1162
01:22:43,480 --> 01:22:46,800
You like to help us?
I am no man's ally.

1163
01:22:46,960 --> 01:22:50,560
I only serve the flame that
remembers, not the one they

1164
01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:52,520
chained and crowned to their
halls.

1165
01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:56,320
If the Dominion wakes her again,
I will tear the citadel apart

1166
01:22:56,520 --> 01:23:01,880
stone by stone until their faith
runs dry and a beat of silence

1167
01:23:02,000 --> 01:23:05,320
passes.
The ash settles like snowfall

1168
01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:12,240
and the giants voices rises
again, almost like a confession.

1169
01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:18,000
Tell your Dominion this little
one, the fire does not choose

1170
01:23:18,000 --> 01:23:25,360
sides, it only chooses truth,
and here the truth burns, and he

1171
01:23:25,360 --> 01:23:28,600
retrieves his sword, dragging it
once more behind him as he turns

1172
01:23:28,600 --> 01:23:31,280
back towards the caldera.
The wind picks up again,

1173
01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:33,240
carrying his words away into the
dark.

1174
01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:38,000
If your light is honest, I will
not strike it down.

1175
01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:42,720
The sound of his footsteps fade
into the ash and for a moment

1176
01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:46,640
the mountains glow, pulses and
rhythm with his departing steps,

1177
01:23:47,200 --> 01:23:52,760
and then stills again.
I like that guy.

1178
01:23:52,760 --> 01:23:54,920
That's what I just tell you.
I just tell everybody I like

1179
01:23:54,920 --> 01:23:58,360
that guy.
Cool.

1180
01:23:58,360 --> 01:24:02,520
All right, so for the sake of
time, we will assume everybody

1181
01:24:02,520 --> 01:24:04,560
takes a watch.
No, if nothing happens during

1182
01:24:04,560 --> 01:24:07,200
the watch, we're going to take a
small break, come back and we

1183
01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:10,280
will continue on on the journey
to the Pyre Hard accord that is

1184
01:24:10,280 --> 01:24:15,360

1202
01:25:08,480 --> 01:25:12,760
Where we last left our party.
They were just completing their

1203
01:25:12,760 --> 01:25:16,320
long rest.
Everything just forsake of time

1204
01:25:16,400 --> 01:25:20,520
will go off without a hitch and
we will move here into the

1205
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,360
second day.
So let's get everybody back to

1206
01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:31,880
full health.
All right, cool.

1207
01:25:32,200 --> 01:25:41,560
All right, so then as morning
comes about, sun cresting the

1208
01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:47,600
horizon, you begin your your
travel once again.

1209
01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:52,480
Ash falls in soft, steady flakes
across the switch back, path,

1210
01:25:53,200 --> 01:25:57,960
path path, coating the glassy
stone and ghostly grey, each

1211
01:25:57,960 --> 01:26:01,720
step crunching faintly like
treading over old bones.

1212
01:26:01,720 --> 01:26:06,480
Far below, rivers of magma wind
through the caldera and above,

1213
01:26:06,480 --> 01:26:10,000
black Spires rise from the
volcano's mouth, each crowned

1214
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:12,160
with pale fire that burns
without color.

1215
01:26:12,520 --> 01:26:17,680
The air tastes metallic.
Bells toll somewhere ahead, not

1216
01:26:17,680 --> 01:26:21,800
heard but felt, the way Thunder
hums through ribs.

1217
01:26:22,480 --> 01:26:26,520
At the end of the path that you
see, the Pyre Heart stronghold

1218
01:26:26,560 --> 01:26:32,040
yawns open, a Dominion citadel
fused to a volcanic rim and

1219
01:26:32,040 --> 01:26:34,800
veiled in hollow host
iconography.

1220
01:26:35,720 --> 01:26:39,160
Basalt archways weeps streaks of
black wax.

1221
01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:44,880
Every torch burns without heat,
every brassiere cold as memory

1222
01:26:45,640 --> 01:26:48,600
lines of mourners move towards
the funeral gate.

1223
01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:53,080
Dominion officers you can see in
parade armor, choir priests in

1224
01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:58,760
silent procession, all speak in
whispers, each step closer, each

1225
01:26:58,760 --> 01:27:00,920
step closer steals something
from the air.

1226
01:27:01,240 --> 01:27:07,720
Warmth, color, courage, and you
realize this is not a fortress,

1227
01:27:08,440 --> 01:27:12,480
it is a tomb that's forgotten
what it buried.

1228
01:27:13,440 --> 01:27:17,840
As you reach the final bend, you
see the outer curtain, Dominion

1229
01:27:17,840 --> 01:27:21,480
soldiers flanking Hollow Host
acolytes, both watching the

1230
01:27:21,480 --> 01:27:23,960
incoming processions with equal
suspicion.

1231
01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:28,280
Between them stands a gate of
carved basalt, depicting

1232
01:27:28,280 --> 01:27:33,240
thousands of faces without eyes.
One of those faces moves.

1233
01:27:33,240 --> 01:27:37,840
Its lips part, exhaling A faint
sigh that turns into mist.

1234
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:43,200
A Dominion officer in blackened
emberplate steps forward, visor

1235
01:27:43,200 --> 01:27:46,160
down.
Behind him, a crownless Cantor

1236
01:27:46,160 --> 01:27:51,520
sways, robes drifting, porcelain
masks vibrating in rhythm to a

1237
01:27:51,520 --> 01:27:57,040
deep subsonic hum.
And I assume would you approach

1238
01:27:57,200 --> 01:28:05,040
right away towards the gate?
I would for myself activate my

1239
01:28:05,040 --> 01:28:08,960
mask that gives me invisibility
OK and continue to observe.

1240
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:11,760
Lie up pretty high.
OK.

1241
01:28:12,080 --> 01:28:15,920
And I will use my cloak of
invisibility.

1242
01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:23,000
OK, Savara, are you still
guiding the the carriage?

1243
01:28:24,280 --> 01:28:29,280
Yep.
OK, Kezdea, I'm sneaking.

1244
01:28:29,560 --> 01:28:32,240
You sneaking.
I'm sneaking.

1245
01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:37,280
OK.
So without raising his voice, an

1246
01:28:37,280 --> 01:28:42,280
officer announces all who enter
Pyre Heart must surrender their

1247
01:28:42,280 --> 01:28:45,640
words.
Speak only what the host

1248
01:28:45,640 --> 01:28:49,520
permits.
The Accord will not abide liars

1249
01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:54,200
at its altar, and a line forms
behind the gate, acolytes

1250
01:28:54,200 --> 01:28:59,640
collecting sealed envelopes
known as unspoken eulogies and

1251
01:28:59,640 --> 01:29:03,280
pinning them, pinning fragments
of porcelain to each entrance

1252
01:29:03,280 --> 01:29:05,720
collar.
And that's when you realize

1253
01:29:05,720 --> 01:29:08,880
they're not checking for weapons
or relics.

1254
01:29:09,320 --> 01:29:16,840
They're checking for grief.
Oh, as you approach, Sorry, go

1255
01:29:19,280 --> 01:29:25,680
ahead.
As you approach the Dominion

1256
01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:30,560
sergeants, the Dominion Sergeant
eyes your group, or what's left

1257
01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:36,520
of your group.
He does, however, kind of look

1258
01:29:36,520 --> 01:29:40,080
in the air.
And I mean I'm.

1259
01:29:41,360 --> 01:29:45,160
Going to wave.
He kind of goes, he kind of

1260
01:29:45,160 --> 01:29:50,840
looks up and salutes a little
bit towards you, kind of with a

1261
01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:55,960
confused look in his eye.
And he, the Cantor hums.

1262
01:29:56,320 --> 01:30:01,400
The cantor's hum deepens and you
can see 3 distinct approaches

1263
01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:07,080
ahead, 1 lined with carts and
mourners, 1 guarded by cliffside

1264
01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:11,280
vents, and one where merchants
offer their offerings and

1265
01:30:11,280 --> 01:30:18,360
bribes.
That means we have to go one of

1266
01:30:18,360 --> 01:30:19,720
those three ways.
Is that what you're saying?

1267
01:30:19,840 --> 01:30:20,520
Correct.
Yep.

1268
01:30:22,760 --> 01:30:24,680
So there are can.
We repeat what they're doing.

1269
01:30:25,040 --> 01:30:26,560
Yeah.
So to kind of break it down a

1270
01:30:26,560 --> 01:30:30,400
little bit more, basically the
first line with carts and

1271
01:30:30,400 --> 01:30:34,000
mortars, you will be looking to
infiltrate from within.

1272
01:30:34,400 --> 01:30:37,360
You'll be pretending to be
funerary auxiliaries.

1273
01:30:38,160 --> 01:30:40,480
The second path will be a
physical infiltration.

1274
01:30:41,160 --> 01:30:44,840
You will basically have to scale
the cliffside fumaroles to get

1275
01:30:44,880 --> 01:30:52,200
to the location or the final.
You can attempt appeasement

1276
01:30:52,200 --> 01:30:59,160
through offerings and bribes.
I can fly so you know, scaling a

1277
01:30:59,160 --> 01:31:04,080
Cliff, whatever how high is the
Cliff Let's.

1278
01:31:06,800 --> 01:31:11,160
Take a look.
Here I wouldn't know how wide it

1279
01:31:11,160 --> 01:31:24,080
is.
The Cliff itself is

1280
01:31:26,640 --> 01:31:34,760
approximately 45 feet tall.
Cool, I can get myself and three

1281
01:31:34,760 --> 01:31:39,160
others up there.
I mean, I don't need.

1282
01:31:39,200 --> 01:31:41,920
It all up there.
Yeah, I can.

1283
01:31:42,120 --> 01:31:44,920
IPhone have no Cliff scaling
ability whatsoever.

1284
01:31:45,440 --> 01:31:47,480
I get to see people with.
Best of them though.

1285
01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:53,920
I can wild shape into a Kwaza
Lakotas and fly.

1286
01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:58,000
Get us.
Up there in 30 seconds in game

1287
01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:02,600
time.
Why not?

1288
01:32:04,520 --> 01:32:08,440
Wait, are there any trees?
No, there are no trees.

1289
01:32:08,440 --> 01:32:12,720
So effectively what you would
see is you see a pathway that

1290
01:32:12,720 --> 01:32:16,520
would allow you to scale it.
Effectively what you would do is

1291
01:32:16,520 --> 01:32:21,360
you would scale it in three
separate segments and be

1292
01:32:21,360 --> 01:32:24,920
basically a skill challenge.
How big is how thick is a

1293
01:32:24,920 --> 01:32:28,120
Stonewall?
I could wind block us all.

1294
01:32:31,160 --> 01:32:35,720
I'm in for climbing I think.
I'm pretty athletic.

1295
01:32:36,480 --> 01:32:40,320
Wait, how thick is a Stonewall?
I am not.

1296
01:32:40,800 --> 01:32:45,600
It's basically it's embedded
into the the mountain, into the

1297
01:32:45,600 --> 01:32:46,600
wall, yeah.
There's got to be like a,

1298
01:32:46,600 --> 01:32:48,920
there's got to be like a wall,
right, Where people are like

1299
01:32:49,400 --> 01:32:55,160
passing through, right?
You're not able to see because

1300
01:32:55,160 --> 01:32:57,280
it's it's like it says, about 45
feet above you.

1301
01:32:58,520 --> 01:33:03,920
So you're not able to see the
the the width of the wall that

1302
01:33:03,920 --> 01:33:06,720
you would also need to climb
over so effectively.

1303
01:33:06,800 --> 01:33:07,960
Oh, I wasn't good, I wasn't
good.

1304
01:33:08,080 --> 01:33:10,400
I wasn't good.
I wasn't gonna climb over it.

1305
01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:14,040
I was gonna train.
I was gonna stone shape it and

1306
01:33:14,040 --> 01:33:14,880
make a door.
Yeah.

1307
01:33:16,440 --> 01:33:20,760
But we have to go up.
I mean like, oh wait, fuck that.

1308
01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:23,240
OK, I guess I could.
Wild Shape.

1309
01:33:23,920 --> 01:33:27,600
I mean, if I wouldn't walk you
guys, then everyone's just gas

1310
01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:31,320
and we're just clouds of gas and
myths and we can just fly around

1311
01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:32,760
wherever.
That's very true.

1312
01:33:34,360 --> 01:33:38,200
I can make it so we have, I'll
say advantage.

1313
01:33:40,360 --> 01:33:41,840
I mean like if she wind walks
all the.

1314
01:33:41,920 --> 01:33:43,320
Time.
Yeah.

1315
01:33:43,360 --> 01:33:44,480
If she wind walks, what was
that?

1316
01:33:45,560 --> 01:33:48,480
Say again sorry.
What spell level is that?

1317
01:33:48,480 --> 01:33:52,080
Because I don't want to waste.
It wind walk, I think that's

1318
01:33:52,160 --> 01:33:55,160
third level.
Or is that your bead?

1319
01:33:55,560 --> 01:33:57,920
6th level.
I think that's one of her beads,

1320
01:33:58,160 --> 01:33:58,840
right?
Let's see something.

1321
01:33:58,840 --> 01:34:01,040
That's one of my beads.
OK, so I can use it once.

1322
01:34:01,840 --> 01:34:03,360
Once a long rest for long rest,
yeah.

1323
01:34:04,240 --> 01:34:07,680
I mean it lasts for how long?
Like all day up.

1324
01:34:08,840 --> 01:34:11,960
To 8 hours, yeah.
Up to 8 hours.

1325
01:34:11,960 --> 01:34:14,880
Yeah, and we can go like back
and forth between the wind

1326
01:34:14,880 --> 01:34:18,040
walking, I believe.
Yeah, yeah.

1327
01:34:18,360 --> 01:34:23,000
Actually, yeah, yeah, I mean,
that sounded.

1328
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:25,560
Yeah, if we want to use that on
it, that's probably a good, good

1329
01:34:25,560 --> 01:34:27,360
use for this day.
I.

1330
01:34:28,520 --> 01:34:32,280
Mean it's I would assume we'd
have a decent chance of sneaking

1331
01:34:32,280 --> 01:34:33,200
around.
We're going to.

1332
01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:38,000
You'll be wherever you choose to
solidify in.

1333
01:34:38,000 --> 01:34:40,320
You're going to be stuck in that
position for a minute.

1334
01:34:41,600 --> 01:34:44,000
But I mean just hide behind a
tree when you do it or

1335
01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:46,440
something.
Or up in the tree.

1336
01:34:47,160 --> 01:34:50,840
There are do stuff right?
Oh yeah, this is where we what

1337
01:34:50,840 --> 01:34:54,280
we use for the fun house isn't.
It.

1338
01:34:55,000 --> 01:35:00,320
Latrine and just come out be
like, yeah, that was a good

1339
01:35:00,320 --> 01:35:07,760
bathroom break.
No other way up this mountain.

1340
01:35:07,760 --> 01:35:10,480
So I say yes, let's do it.
I will take the help when

1341
01:35:10,480 --> 01:35:12,440
offered.
Or we can choose one of the.

1342
01:35:12,600 --> 01:35:13,960
Other two, The other two notes
or.

1343
01:35:14,320 --> 01:35:18,200
Something else?
Yeah, because it gives you a fly

1344
01:35:18,200 --> 01:35:26,600
speed of like 60. 300 feet I
think it is flying speed of 300

1345
01:35:26,600 --> 01:35:31,880
feet and resistance to damage
from non magical weapons and the

1346
01:35:31,880 --> 01:35:35,760
only things you can do are dash
or revert to normal form while

1347
01:35:35,760 --> 01:35:37,960
this is going.
Let's do that.

1348
01:35:38,600 --> 01:35:42,960
Yeah, because you you should do.
That at the start of every

1349
01:35:42,960 --> 01:35:46,160
single day, because we can go
back and forth into it.

1350
01:35:49,720 --> 01:35:51,040
It's got a duration though,
right?

1351
01:35:51,200 --> 01:35:54,240
Like an.
Hour 8 hours. 8 hours. 8 hours

1352
01:35:55,240 --> 01:35:56,880
There was a.
Concentration or anything?

1353
01:35:57,320 --> 01:36:00,320
No, it was just a bead.
No, it's just a bead.

1354
01:36:01,160 --> 01:36:02,360
It's, it's a prayer bead.
It's.

1355
01:36:03,360 --> 01:36:05,840
I I chose.
This very specifically for

1356
01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:09,120
things like this on it, but
yeah.

1357
01:36:10,960 --> 01:36:13,600
Let's do it.
OK, all right, prayer, Bead it

1358
01:36:13,600 --> 01:36:16,640
up.
Fur bead to wind walk and then

1359
01:36:16,880 --> 01:36:18,600
up the mountain.
The physical route, correct?

1360
01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:22,440
Yep.
Well, I mean, we're just going

1361
01:36:22,440 --> 01:36:27,640
to, it's going to take us a
grand total of if an action is 6

1362
01:36:27,640 --> 01:36:33,160
seconds and we fly at a speed of
300 feet per act for per turn,

1363
01:36:33,280 --> 01:36:37,600
300 feet in six seconds, it
takes us no time to get to the

1364
01:36:37,600 --> 01:36:40,320
dash.
Yeah, yeah, it would take you no

1365
01:36:40,320 --> 01:36:43,960
time to get up the mountain.
So yeah, we'll all dash also.

1366
01:36:43,960 --> 01:36:46,760
So we move 600 feet in six
seconds.

1367
01:36:49,640 --> 01:36:59,680
So just OK, we're here.
OK, yeah, so I mean you lift

1368
01:36:59,680 --> 01:37:03,040
your faces to the vents and feel
the ash breath wind gather in

1369
01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:07,240
loose rhythm and the world fins
beneath the mountain's hum of

1370
01:37:07,240 --> 01:37:11,000
Sisa speaks the incantation.
The air bends, fingers of cloud

1371
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:13,320
and shadow coil around your
boots and in a breath you are no

1372
01:37:13,320 --> 01:37:17,040
longer quite solid.
Wind walk takes you, each of you

1373
01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:21,200
becoming a low rolling column of
mist and ash voices, muffled

1374
01:37:21,200 --> 01:37:26,800
edges blurring.
You ride up the shafts like like

1375
01:37:26,800 --> 01:37:30,280
nothing, sliding along the
rivers, or excuse me, sliding

1376
01:37:30,280 --> 01:37:34,280
along along the Ridge above the
turn events instead of clinging

1377
01:37:34,280 --> 01:37:37,600
to the glass switch backs from
this new hype pyre.

1378
01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:41,400
Heart looks smaller and
stranger, the funerary gate a

1379
01:37:41,400 --> 01:37:45,960
ring of black teeth, the
cantor's porcelain mass bobbing

1380
01:37:45,960 --> 01:37:53,560
like seals and slow procession.
What I will need from you so

1381
01:37:53,560 --> 01:37:54,520
like the.
Part where you said we're

1382
01:37:54,520 --> 01:38:00,320
writing up the shafts, yeah.
What I will still need from the

1383
01:38:00,320 --> 01:38:06,800
both from all of you is because
there are vents in the in the

1384
01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:10,560
mountain, I'm going to need 2
checks.

1385
01:38:11,200 --> 01:38:13,320
I'm going to use my Obsidian
heart.

1386
01:38:13,320 --> 01:38:17,040
That gives me advantage on
identifying when those vents are

1387
01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:20,400
going to do something.
OK, so you will.

1388
01:38:20,400 --> 01:38:22,920
Before they do something.
You'll gain advantage I believe,

1389
01:38:22,920 --> 01:38:25,960
correct.
Yeah, I gain advantage on

1390
01:38:26,040 --> 01:38:30,120
detecting the vents.
OK, so I will.

1391
01:38:30,120 --> 01:38:33,160
So I will.
I will do my best to guide

1392
01:38:33,280 --> 01:38:36,480
everyone to not go where the
vent is.

1393
01:38:36,880 --> 01:38:39,200
OK.
So the first thing I need from

1394
01:38:39,200 --> 01:38:47,480
all of you is effectively what
we'll say first is we will say a

1395
01:38:47,480 --> 01:38:53,240
nature check with advantage to
read, to read the vent patterns

1396
01:38:53,760 --> 01:38:59,000
and basically choose the path
that will be calmer because

1397
01:38:59,000 --> 01:39:00,960
again, you're made of air at
this point.

1398
01:39:00,960 --> 01:39:03,280
So you are going to be affected
by the vents if you if you take

1399
01:39:03,280 --> 01:39:08,360
the wrong route.
So first thing first, I'll need.

1400
01:39:08,360 --> 01:39:11,360
Right, but I can detect sources
of heat within 60 feet.

1401
01:39:12,120 --> 01:39:15,680
Mava vents, active forges,
hidden wards.

1402
01:39:16,200 --> 01:39:17,480
Yeah.
So again, you'll you'll get

1403
01:39:17,480 --> 01:39:19,800
advantage and you said you'll
relay all the information to

1404
01:39:19,800 --> 01:39:22,760
your party, correct?
Yeah, but that's only advantage

1405
01:39:22,760 --> 01:39:26,240
on the perception checks to find
the vents within 60 feet.

1406
01:39:27,080 --> 01:39:28,760
So I shouldn't need to do a
nature check.

1407
01:39:28,800 --> 01:39:33,560
I should be able to sense them
with perception based on this

1408
01:39:33,560 --> 01:39:37,800
item.
So if we get within 60 feet of a

1409
01:39:37,800 --> 01:39:41,560
vent, I have advantage on
perception checks be like,

1410
01:39:41,720 --> 01:39:45,680
that's a vent because it's hot
and I can feel it and say,

1411
01:39:46,040 --> 01:39:50,680
right, let's go this other way.
Yeah, you're able to detect

1412
01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:54,880
where they are, but again, so.
Yes, within 60 feet, yes.

1413
01:39:54,880 --> 01:39:56,400
Yeah, within 60 feet.
So if.

1414
01:39:56,440 --> 01:39:57,880
I get within feet a second,
Yeah, and.

1415
01:39:58,480 --> 01:40:00,120
You're.
Going to tell us that.

1416
01:40:01,240 --> 01:40:06,200
Yep, left, right.
Go in that case, then I'll say

1417
01:40:06,200 --> 01:40:12,200
you all based on Neuros's
information that you will all

1418
01:40:12,240 --> 01:40:14,520
just automatically succeed the
first check.

1419
01:40:15,040 --> 01:40:17,800
The second check will be
effectively the check to take

1420
01:40:17,840 --> 01:40:21,840
said route successfully.
A nature.

1421
01:40:22,240 --> 01:40:25,000
I would need everybody to make
me effectively an acrobatics

1422
01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:26,840
check.
Oh fuck.

1423
01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:31,520
Excuse me, we're flying.
And I have it.

1424
01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:33,680
I have advantage on acrobatics,
correct?

1425
01:40:37,960 --> 01:40:46,000
Oh, 17. 10.
Does my 600 feet per round give

1426
01:40:46,000 --> 01:40:52,320
me an advantage in acrobatics?
I mean, I would say if you're

1427
01:40:52,320 --> 01:40:55,880
moving at that speed, you're
going.

1428
01:40:55,920 --> 01:40:59,680
Yeah, but it's controlled speed.
Not at 600 feet a second.

1429
01:41:00,680 --> 01:41:02,600
When you are.
Formed.

1430
01:41:02,600 --> 01:41:09,080
Just in gas you are.
I got a 17th.

1431
01:41:09,280 --> 01:41:14,400
Yeah, I.
Got 21 anyway, I hate you. 2020

1432
01:41:14,480 --> 01:41:16,280
cash.
I got a 21 anyway.

1433
01:41:18,000 --> 01:41:20,960
Savara, 1010.
Yeah.

1434
01:41:22,360 --> 01:41:28,680
I'm so excited, I just got a net
20 but I have +8 to acrobatics

1435
01:41:28,680 --> 01:41:32,600
so that's the 28th.
There.

1436
01:41:32,680 --> 01:41:38,160
You go all right, so everyone
will succeed and gain their way

1437
01:41:38,160 --> 01:41:47,480
up the mountain.
Just like a snap of a finger and

1438
01:41:47,480 --> 01:41:48,840
we're there.
Poof.

1439
01:41:49,160 --> 01:41:53,080
Pretty much, yeah.
Like Harry Potter chasing the

1440
01:41:53,080 --> 01:42:05,220
fucking golden snitch.
You know your drinks cold when

1441
01:42:05,220 --> 01:42:10,420
there's fog coming off of it.
Oh my God, that hurts.

1442
01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:15,560
OK, so all of you making up the
mountain successfully with the

1443
01:42:15,560 --> 01:42:20,880
wind walk.
You follow the vents, curve

1444
01:42:20,880 --> 01:42:26,640
inwarded for a brief moment, the
haze kind of opens and you

1445
01:42:26,640 --> 01:42:31,000
emerge into the the hidden
arteries of of pyre heart.

1446
01:42:31,880 --> 01:42:37,080
The walls here are blackened
stone, slick with condensation,

1447
01:42:37,080 --> 01:42:41,280
and heat in the air thrums
faintly with a rhythmic

1448
01:42:41,280 --> 01:42:44,080
vibration, not mechanical but
almost musical.

1449
01:42:44,480 --> 01:42:47,080
Somewhere above, the hollow
hosts crownless.

1450
01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:51,720
Cantor sustains a continuous
note, and the residence makes

1451
01:42:51,720 --> 01:42:56,440
dust leap up from the floors in
steady patterns, and you realize

1452
01:42:56,720 --> 01:43:00,640
with dawning unease that the
entire fortress is singing.

1453
01:43:01,200 --> 01:43:05,440
Glowing channels of magma trace
the floor like veins, lighting

1454
01:43:05,440 --> 01:43:07,520
the space with dim, pulsing
light.

1455
01:43:07,800 --> 01:43:13,080
Black candles rest in wall in
wall recesses, their flames Gray

1456
01:43:13,080 --> 01:43:18,760
and motionless.
The corridor forks fox, fox.

1457
01:43:19,080 --> 01:43:23,960
The corridor forks three ways
left, a gallery lit by

1458
01:43:23,960 --> 01:43:27,280
extinguished brassieres in line
with tall Obsidian mirrors.

1459
01:43:28,080 --> 01:43:31,480
To the right, quiet Chapel
filled with unlit bells and

1460
01:43:31,480 --> 01:43:35,600
incense brassieres, or
straightforward, A narrow unlit

1461
01:43:35,920 --> 01:43:45,040
half collapsed room.
Now this this pathway for what

1462
01:43:45,040 --> 01:43:48,080
you can see with all your
passives is restricted.

1463
01:43:50,120 --> 01:43:51,880
Not the gas.
Form though, right?

1464
01:43:51,880 --> 01:43:57,040
Yeah, that sounds like perhaps
the easiest option for us as

1465
01:43:57,040 --> 01:44:06,360
incorporeal beings right now.
Spencer's like, I hate my life.

1466
01:44:06,920 --> 01:44:08,400
No, that's actually really
smart.

1467
01:44:09,240 --> 01:44:13,120
Give me one second.
Oh look, another another puzzle

1468
01:44:13,120 --> 01:44:22,000
we can bypass.
Gaseous form.

1469
01:44:23,320 --> 01:44:28,840
Wisp of clouds 300 feet.
Resistance to damage.

1470
01:44:29,680 --> 01:44:36,800
Dash.
Yeah, that takes a minute to to

1471
01:44:37,560 --> 01:44:41,320
change back and forth, so keep
that in mind.

1472
01:44:44,280 --> 01:44:49,600
OK, so you drift forward, silent
and shapeless, thin ribbons of

1473
01:44:49,600 --> 01:44:53,920
ash and vapor gliding through
the molting corridors of Service

1474
01:44:53,920 --> 01:44:57,000
Gallery B.
Here the world ceases to

1475
01:44:57,000 --> 01:45:00,280
resemble architecture at all.
The Dominion's masonry gives way

1476
01:45:00,280 --> 01:45:04,000
to volcanic caverns lined with
Obsidian veins that pulse

1477
01:45:04,000 --> 01:45:07,080
faintly like slow heartbeats
within stone.

1478
01:45:08,640 --> 01:45:12,360
The very air feels charged, as
though the mountain recognizes

1479
01:45:12,360 --> 01:45:16,960
intruders and hasn't yet decided
whether to reject or consume

1480
01:45:16,960 --> 01:45:19,280
them.
And in your current state, you

1481
01:45:19,280 --> 01:45:22,440
make no sound, save for the
faint size of displaced air.

1482
01:45:23,360 --> 01:45:25,840
You pass through the narrow
fissures and warped iron grates,

1483
01:45:26,360 --> 01:45:29,880
weaving around red lit vents
that breathe heat upward and

1484
01:45:29,880 --> 01:45:33,680
slow exhalations.
Below, you glimpse an unsettling

1485
01:45:33,680 --> 01:45:38,040
sight, dozens of Hollow host
acolytes kneeling along a

1486
01:45:38,040 --> 01:45:41,400
glowing channel of magma, their
faces hidden between cracked

1487
01:45:41,400 --> 01:45:45,000
porcelain masks.
They sway gently in time with

1488
01:45:45,000 --> 01:45:49,800
the low, wordless chant, a
prelude to the procession of the

1489
01:45:49,800 --> 01:45:54,320
Crownless.
They are marking the walls with

1490
01:45:54,320 --> 01:45:58,240
lines of black wax, writing
symbols that burn and vanish in

1491
01:45:58,240 --> 01:46:02,040
the same heartbeat.
Every line they draw feeds faint

1492
01:46:02,080 --> 01:46:05,960
runes overhead, living warts
that crawl and shimmer like

1493
01:46:05,960 --> 01:46:12,480
veins of liquid ink.
And for a moment, the spells

1494
01:46:12,960 --> 01:46:15,840
vaporous calm threatens to
falter.

1495
01:46:15,840 --> 01:46:17,840
You feel yourself beginning to
change.

1496
01:46:18,160 --> 01:46:22,760
I need all of you to make me a
Constitution saving throw.

1497
01:46:27,000 --> 01:46:29,960
Against auditory effects.
No, this would not be an

1498
01:46:29,960 --> 01:46:30,480
auditory.
Effect.

1499
01:46:33,080 --> 01:46:34,640
That's a 13.
A spell effect?

1500
01:46:35,200 --> 01:46:36,520
No, this is just happening,
right?

1501
01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:41,600
Yep. 17.
Finally something I've got

1502
01:46:41,600 --> 01:46:45,840
proficiency in at least.
Me too, 2223.

1503
01:46:49,280 --> 01:46:55,640
OK. 12. 16.
To 12 and 16 and then so are you

1504
01:46:55,640 --> 01:47:03,280
rolled at 11/17/17?
OK, who rolled under 15?

1505
01:47:03,280 --> 01:47:09,800
Role of I rolled. 13 You OK?
OK, so augmented caste as you as

1506
01:47:09,800 --> 01:47:16,360
a party are kind of witnessing
these living wards and ruins

1507
01:47:16,360 --> 01:47:19,960
being drawn into the into the
walls.

1508
01:47:20,360 --> 01:47:24,400
Just for a split moment, you
revert back into your human

1509
01:47:24,400 --> 01:47:28,080
shape, flicker like a a ghostly
figure almost seen like through

1510
01:47:28,080 --> 01:47:31,080
a if you will like a heat, a
heat haze.

1511
01:47:31,520 --> 01:47:34,800
And a few of the acolytes pause,
their chanting mass tilted

1512
01:47:34,800 --> 01:47:37,800
upwards as if sensing the
distortion.

1513
01:47:38,680 --> 01:47:45,640
I need both of you to give me a,
we'll say a hide check, a

1514
01:47:45,680 --> 01:47:48,560
stealth check.
Was it a spell effect?

1515
01:47:48,920 --> 01:47:53,480
No, these were these were
effectively due to the the wards

1516
01:47:53,480 --> 01:47:55,080
that are they are drawing in the
wall all.

1517
01:47:55,640 --> 01:47:57,520
Right words.
A spell I can counter spell a

1518
01:47:57,560 --> 01:48:01,880
ward.
The cast the words a long time

1519
01:48:01,880 --> 01:48:03,760
ago.
You can't under spell something

1520
01:48:03,760 --> 01:48:05,440
I can.
Dispel Magic Award.

1521
01:48:06,120 --> 01:48:09,120
That one you could maybe do if
you knew that it was happening.

1522
01:48:09,160 --> 01:48:10,640
You can't do that in gas board
though.

1523
01:48:11,320 --> 01:48:14,840
I That's true, but I can also
sense the words when I'm within

1524
01:48:14,840 --> 01:48:23,560
5060 feet of them, so.
OK, you sense the words.

1525
01:48:24,640 --> 01:48:29,040
Don't go by that.
OK, we're already. 5 but say in

1526
01:48:29,120 --> 01:48:33,440
augment I need a stealth.
Check I got a 18 did.

1527
01:48:39,600 --> 01:48:45,000
You hear me, No 30?
Oh my God.

1528
01:48:45,600 --> 01:48:48,120
I got an 18 and I got fucked.
Called the Stealth.

1529
01:48:49,320 --> 01:48:58,840
Oh my God that's the suck.
OK so as Ogman and Khazdea

1530
01:48:59,080 --> 01:49:04,240
revert from the OR revert into
the human form for just the

1531
01:49:04,240 --> 01:49:08,680
flicker, the acolytes look up
and as they looked up you're

1532
01:49:08,680 --> 01:49:12,960
able to effectively hit the deck
and re concentrate back into the

1533
01:49:12,960 --> 01:49:16,960
gaseous form.
From there you follow the sound,

1534
01:49:16,960 --> 01:49:21,080
the hum becoming clearer as you
approach a circular chamber

1535
01:49:21,080 --> 01:49:26,280
where the corridor opens upward
into a cathedral like shaft.

1536
01:49:26,680 --> 01:49:30,920
Here pillars of solidified magma
rise like organ pipes, glowing

1537
01:49:30,920 --> 01:49:34,240
faintly at their cores.
The walls shimmer with faint

1538
01:49:34,240 --> 01:49:37,040
reflections, you can see
yourself within them.

1539
01:49:37,160 --> 01:49:40,680
Well, your dashes forms if you
will through distorted, almost

1540
01:49:40,680 --> 01:49:44,200
like different versions of you,
moving like 1/2 beat out of

1541
01:49:44,200 --> 01:49:48,640
sync.
In the chamber's center floats a

1542
01:49:48,640 --> 01:49:51,920
massive bell suspended by
invisible chains.

1543
01:49:51,920 --> 01:49:56,800
It does not swing, but it
vibrates constantly, a resonance

1544
01:49:57,040 --> 01:50:01,840
so deep it feels like your your
bones would try to to hum along.

1545
01:50:02,160 --> 01:50:06,520
The sound is not loud, but it's
impossible to ignore.

1546
01:50:07,080 --> 01:50:09,800
This is 1 of pyre hearts bell
chords.

1547
01:50:10,400 --> 01:50:13,320
They are living wards that tie
the dominions truth.

1548
01:50:13,800 --> 01:50:18,080
A living ward that ties the
Dominions truth seals to the

1549
01:50:18,080 --> 01:50:22,440
hosts hymn magic.
The processions opening tone

1550
01:50:22,440 --> 01:50:36,320
will begin right here.
Nero's you are able to detect

1551
01:50:38,280 --> 01:50:39,840
pressing a little bit deeper
into the hall.

1552
01:50:39,840 --> 01:50:47,280
With your your ability, you can
sense award Nexus leading into

1553
01:50:47,280 --> 01:50:58,080
the next hall.
I want to hey, we got 10

1554
01:50:58,080 --> 01:51:01,160
minutes.
You want to take 10.

1555
01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:06,720
No, I'm asking the group.
Can we hide here for 10 minutes

1556
01:51:06,720 --> 01:51:12,320
while he casts a ritual?
I mean, as long as, as long as

1557
01:51:12,320 --> 01:51:16,160
the the thing doesn't get
completed, I'm fine with that.

1558
01:51:17,200 --> 01:51:20,200
That was a ritual with them.
We still had the signing, right?

1559
01:51:24,760 --> 01:51:26,720
You still got what?
Days.

1560
01:51:28,400 --> 01:51:31,280
It was going to be signed in
four days and it took us two

1561
01:51:31,280 --> 01:51:35,520
days to get there.
Yeah, I mean, I'm cool with it

1562
01:51:35,520 --> 01:51:37,840
as long as we we have time.
I'm.

1563
01:51:37,840 --> 01:51:40,680
Gonna I'm gonna cast detect
magic.

1564
01:51:42,600 --> 01:51:51,480
OK, it's April to tell you, or I
tell you the school of magic,

1565
01:51:51,480 --> 01:51:56,000
that that's incorrect.
You sense the presence of magic

1566
01:51:56,000 --> 01:52:02,400
within 30 feet of you.
If you sense magic, I can see an

1567
01:52:02,400 --> 01:52:04,400
aura.
If I focus, I use an action to

1568
01:52:04,400 --> 01:52:08,920
focus and learn the school of
magic, if any.

1569
01:52:11,840 --> 01:52:14,320
It lasts for 10 minutes.
So I'm going to do a quick, a

1570
01:52:15,040 --> 01:52:18,920
quick little sweepy sweep of
this area and especially the

1571
01:52:18,920 --> 01:52:23,280
bell to determine if any of this
is like, what's all magic in

1572
01:52:23,280 --> 01:52:37,560
this place?
OK, so the Bell core ward in

1573
01:52:37,560 --> 01:52:40,680
this chamber.
That's the bell itself.

1574
01:52:41,560 --> 01:52:44,600
The bell and the surrounding
area, if you will.

1575
01:52:44,720 --> 01:52:49,000
OK.
They draw from 2 intertwined

1576
01:52:49,000 --> 01:52:52,360
schools of magic.
Its structure and residents are

1577
01:52:52,600 --> 01:52:56,680
deliberately hybrid, the product
of a Dominion artifice fused

1578
01:52:56,680 --> 01:53:03,560
with hollow host faith.
The main school of magic would

1579
01:53:03,560 --> 01:53:07,160
be the bells molten lattice
projecting a self-sustaining

1580
01:53:07,160 --> 01:53:11,040
truth ward, a stabilizing field
that suppresses lies, shape

1581
01:53:11,040 --> 01:53:13,640
changing and memory distortion
within its radius.

1582
01:53:14,080 --> 01:53:20,200
This is abduration.
All right, I'm going back down

1583
01:53:20,200 --> 01:53:26,040
and be like hey, y'all like that
Bell?

1584
01:53:28,000 --> 01:53:33,040
You don't like that, Bell?
Did he say bite the bell?

1585
01:53:34,040 --> 01:53:38,520
No, don't bite the bell.
So what I will, what I will say

1586
01:53:38,880 --> 01:53:40,960
is.
What's the being held up by?

1587
01:53:41,240 --> 01:53:41,840
Nothing.
Nothing.

1588
01:53:42,200 --> 01:53:46,200
Yep.
So if OK because you use detect

1589
01:53:46,200 --> 01:53:48,320
magic in this instance, here's
what I will give you.

1590
01:53:49,720 --> 01:53:53,240
School of Magic is going to be
an abduration enchantment

1591
01:53:53,240 --> 01:53:58,960
hybrid.
It is a 120 foot spherical field

1592
01:53:58,960 --> 01:54:01,840
centered around the bell.
Well say forsake of argument.

1593
01:54:01,840 --> 01:54:07,360
You did not enter that sphere
while you were detecting metric.

1594
01:54:11,120 --> 01:54:12,000
The effect.
Wait, so.

1595
01:54:12,400 --> 01:54:16,000
The sphere is the thing that
prevents shape changing and all

1596
01:54:16,000 --> 01:54:20,240
that and truth and all that.
Yeah, at this point, because of

1597
01:54:20,240 --> 01:54:24,640
the because of detect magic,
it's a 120 foot spherical field

1598
01:54:25,000 --> 01:54:31,760
centered on the bell itself.
So it could be the bell that's

1599
01:54:31,760 --> 01:54:35,360
doing it, I just don't know if
the bell itself is what's magic.

1600
01:54:35,360 --> 01:54:38,840
Correct.
I mean, can't I?

1601
01:54:38,840 --> 01:54:41,200
I can still get into oh wait it
prevents shape changing?

1602
01:54:41,200 --> 01:54:43,640
Is this considered shape
changing?

1603
01:54:43,640 --> 01:54:47,360
This wind walk.
I am going to say yes.

1604
01:54:47,920 --> 01:54:51,320
It's transmutation, yeah.
Yes, yeah, you've changed forms.

1605
01:54:51,680 --> 01:54:54,600
So I'm going to say for, you
know, take of argument in time,

1606
01:54:54,600 --> 01:54:59,360
yes, it would be affected by
this this this area in.

1607
01:54:59,400 --> 01:55:02,160
Well, I can't do anything with
my wild sheep then.

1608
01:55:03,560 --> 01:55:07,280
In this radius because of your
detect magic spell, all

1609
01:55:07,280 --> 01:55:10,200
creatures within the radius have
disadvantage of deception roles

1610
01:55:11,320 --> 01:55:13,960
spells their ability that would
conceal truth such as non

1611
01:55:13,960 --> 01:55:17,560
detection, disguise self,
mislead, modify memory and we're

1612
01:55:17,560 --> 01:55:21,040
going to say.
Invisibility.

1613
01:55:21,280 --> 01:55:25,120
Invisibility and wind walk as
well would trigger the bells

1614
01:55:25,120 --> 01:55:31,320
hum, which would require a skill
check once and then once per

1615
01:55:31,320 --> 01:55:38,640
minute the ward pulses.
Creatures making charisma saving

1616
01:55:38,640 --> 01:55:41,200
throws against charm or
compulsion effects within this

1617
01:55:41,200 --> 01:55:44,640
field have disadvantaged not
from external magic, but from

1618
01:55:44,640 --> 01:55:47,440
the almost the alignment
pressure of the resonance itself

1619
01:55:47,440 --> 01:55:51,320
coming from the bell.
And just because I know you guys

1620
01:55:51,320 --> 01:55:55,080
like to break shit.
If destroyed, the bell releases

1621
01:55:55,080 --> 01:56:01,320
a concussive pulse which will do
13D6 Thunder damage plus 10D6

1622
01:56:01,320 --> 01:56:05,360
psychic damage.
DC-18 Con save is half of that

1623
01:56:05,360 --> 01:56:07,880
damage.
Jesus, that's part of the ward

1624
01:56:07,880 --> 01:56:08,600
too.
Yep.

1625
01:56:09,760 --> 01:56:11,360
Holy shit.
So I'm I'm.

1626
01:56:11,400 --> 01:56:14,600
Gonna dispel magic so it doesn't
do plenty of that.

1627
01:56:16,880 --> 01:56:23,070
I.
Think he broke something,

1628
01:56:23,070 --> 01:56:26,430
Spencer?
Well, he's about to set off a

1629
01:56:27,830 --> 01:56:30,390
super alarm here.
Why?

1630
01:56:30,470 --> 01:56:34,310
What would set off the alarm?
The fact that the magic is being

1631
01:56:34,310 --> 01:56:38,630
dispelled and changing.
But if the alarm is part of if

1632
01:56:38,630 --> 01:56:42,470
the alarm is part of that that
ability or that ward, it

1633
01:56:42,470 --> 01:56:46,040
wouldn't happen.
Correct, but you're also in an

1634
01:56:46,040 --> 01:56:50,960
area that has a hollow host
members and Dominion forces that

1635
01:56:50,960 --> 01:56:56,760
can both sense magic changing.
So the change in the one thing

1636
01:56:56,760 --> 01:56:59,040
that's going to keep this whole
thing together is going to set

1637
01:56:59,040 --> 01:57:06,810
off a super alarm I.
Mean I already said it unless

1638
01:57:06,810 --> 01:57:11,490
you let me wreck on it.
I mean, it's up to you.

1639
01:57:14,680 --> 01:57:19,400
I'll relate everything that that
I've learned and let them know

1640
01:57:19,400 --> 01:57:23,160
that, Let the party know, hey, I
can dispel this thing, but it's

1641
01:57:23,160 --> 01:57:24,840
probably going to raise some
flags.

1642
01:57:25,840 --> 01:57:28,600
But here's what it's going to
prevent us from doing, or here's

1643
01:57:28,600 --> 01:57:32,480
what the limitations are.
If we are, if we are there, I

1644
01:57:32,480 --> 01:57:36,560
think it's worth it.
I mean I.

1645
01:57:38,320 --> 01:57:40,040
I think let it happen.
You said it already.

1646
01:57:40,560 --> 01:57:45,440
Yeah, the fact that we can't use
this form, that augment can't

1647
01:57:45,440 --> 01:57:49,520
Wild shape, that our our
changeling or shapeshifter can't

1648
01:57:49,520 --> 01:57:53,760
do any of that.
I've got a bunch of Yeah, I was

1649
01:57:53,760 --> 01:57:57,080
going to say.
Are effective here too, so my.

1650
01:57:57,080 --> 01:58:00,920
Polymorph does nothing.
And let let a line of creatures

1651
01:58:00,920 --> 01:58:03,120
come in.
Effectively, there's a doorway

1652
01:58:03,120 --> 01:58:08,200
right into this room.
It was more of an archway, if

1653
01:58:08,200 --> 01:58:10,160
you will.
How big is it?

1654
01:58:12,080 --> 01:58:19,800
Wide ways. 15 feet, we'll say 15
feet by Oh yeah, 20 feet high.

1655
01:58:20,800 --> 01:58:23,320
Let them come It's it's a pretty
straight shot all.

1656
01:58:23,920 --> 01:58:31,280
Right, so I will ask for my
sanity smell magic, yes or no?

1657
01:58:32,320 --> 01:58:34,880
Well, and it's got to do some.
We got to do some things.

1658
01:58:35,600 --> 01:58:39,760
But yes, I'm going to cast the
spell magic unless oh Cisa,

1659
01:58:39,760 --> 01:58:46,080
Savara, Cassvea 3 of you.
No, I mean it's not right.

1660
01:58:46,360 --> 01:58:50,680
Do what you want on this one.
I've asked one DM how straight

1661
01:58:50,680 --> 01:58:54,600
is the pathway where the archway
is?

1662
01:58:54,680 --> 01:58:57,200
It's just an archway and it
opens up to a big cathedral

1663
01:58:57,200 --> 01:58:58,120
room, correct?
Yeah.

1664
01:58:59,200 --> 01:59:05,720
OK, let them come.
Yeah, let's do this.

1665
01:59:05,720 --> 01:59:07,200
Is there?
Hold on to your back.

1666
01:59:07,880 --> 01:59:12,080
Quick scan of the room, is there
a place that might be more

1667
01:59:12,080 --> 01:59:16,080
advantageous for advantageous
for us to hang out in like to

1668
01:59:16,080 --> 01:59:20,640
prepare for what we assume will
be a combat like does anybody

1669
01:59:20,640 --> 01:59:22,840
want to go hide somewhere?
Does anybody want to?

1670
01:59:24,720 --> 01:59:26,440
Understand.
The other thing, visibility

1671
01:59:26,440 --> 01:59:30,720
after I.
Think I think we should all

1672
01:59:31,120 --> 01:59:34,280
spend the minute to revert back
first, but do it in the place

1673
01:59:34,280 --> 01:59:37,400
that makes the most sense.
Yeah, I'm going to be like where

1674
01:59:37,400 --> 01:59:41,360
there's a direct shot to the
archway in the straightest shot

1675
01:59:41,360 --> 01:59:44,240
where I can hit the most people
coming through in a 5 foot with

1676
01:59:44,240 --> 01:59:47,920
it.
Doesn't sound like you're

1677
01:59:47,920 --> 01:59:49,360
preparing for a lightning bolt
or anything.

1678
01:59:54,320 --> 02:00:00,000
OK so you guys will hover as
mist above the bolt and glow.

1679
02:00:00,040 --> 02:00:01,960
You will find an area to be able
to.

1680
02:00:06,600 --> 02:00:07,600
Revert.
Thank you.

1681
02:00:07,680 --> 02:00:13,760
Revert form back to human form.
Then you, as you are kind of

1682
02:00:13,760 --> 02:00:16,760
preparing, you feel Neros kind
of shift.

1683
02:00:17,320 --> 02:00:21,320
The vapor curls reforms, threads
of mist twisting into a faint

1684
02:00:21,320 --> 02:00:25,800
outline of his elven silhouette.
The bells resonance wavers,

1685
02:00:25,800 --> 02:00:28,240
confused by the distortion of
form and intent.

1686
02:00:28,840 --> 02:00:32,680
A single breath gathers in the
air, heavy with purpose.

1687
02:00:33,320 --> 02:00:38,360
Neros says enough.
The word is a little more than a

1688
02:00:38,360 --> 02:00:41,560
whisper, yet it carries like a
shout through the chamber.

1689
02:00:41,560 --> 02:00:45,120
The dispel magic incantation
blooms in his hand, glowing

1690
02:00:45,120 --> 02:00:47,840
silver white against the furnace
light, and the spell hits the

1691
02:00:47,840 --> 02:00:50,240
residents like cold water on
iron.

1692
02:00:50,240 --> 02:00:53,160
And for an instant, the sound
stops.

1693
02:00:53,160 --> 02:00:59,160
The silence is absolute, total
crushing and and wrong.

1694
02:00:59,840 --> 02:01:05,240
And then, like a heartbeat after
death, the bell screams.

1695
02:01:06,000 --> 02:01:11,600
Runes flare white hot molten
script unraveling and fractal

1696
02:01:11,600 --> 02:01:14,680
spirals that paint the walls
with blinding light, and you

1697
02:01:14,680 --> 02:01:16,720
hear something fracture inside
the metal.

1698
02:01:16,800 --> 02:01:21,120
Not magical, but physical, the
clean crack of almost order

1699
02:01:21,120 --> 02:01:25,480
breaking, and the vibration
dies, and with it, the entire

1700
02:01:25,480 --> 02:01:32,600
chamber's hum ceases to exist.
The acolytes kneeling just

1701
02:01:32,600 --> 02:01:35,360
outside along the lava channel
freeze mid chant.

1702
02:01:35,840 --> 02:01:39,480
Their porcelain masks tilt
upward as one, each head

1703
02:01:39,480 --> 02:01:43,800
snapping towards the bell core.
The absence of sound is worse

1704
02:01:44,120 --> 02:01:48,600
than the noise.
The world fears feels emptied. 1

1705
02:01:48,600 --> 02:01:52,240
mask shudders, then another,
almost.

1706
02:01:52,240 --> 02:01:55,800
A low, inhuman keening fills the
air rising from beneath the

1707
02:01:55,800 --> 02:01:58,000
masks.
Not anger, but grief.

1708
02:01:59,960 --> 02:02:03,920
The first breath falters.
One tones voices trembling.

1709
02:02:04,560 --> 02:02:09,680
The flame remembers pain.
Another raises a hand pointed

1710
02:02:09,680 --> 02:02:14,320
directly towards Nero's
reforming figure, and the the

1711
02:02:14,320 --> 02:02:19,240
black wax along their finger
drips molten hot onto the floor.

1712
02:02:20,800 --> 02:02:28,840
Who silences her voice.
The acolytes begin to rise. 9 in

1713
02:02:28,840 --> 02:02:34,000
total, their movements
unnatural, fluid and slow, like

1714
02:02:34,000 --> 02:02:36,120
puppets being pulled by
invisible strings.

1715
02:02:36,480 --> 02:02:39,360
The bell glows faithfully in
their direction, flickering as

1716
02:02:39,360 --> 02:02:41,080
though straining to return to
life.

1717
02:02:41,680 --> 02:02:45,840
The first acolyte, her mask
spilt across the the brow, steps

1718
02:02:45,840 --> 02:02:47,960
closer, hands clasped than
prayer.

1719
02:02:48,480 --> 02:02:53,120
The words that form the words
that follow are a whisper and a

1720
02:02:53,120 --> 02:02:57,440
threat intertwined.
To mute the choir is blasphemy.

1721
02:02:57,840 --> 02:03:00,400
Speak stranger of breath and
shadow.

1722
02:03:01,240 --> 02:03:07,360
Do you seek to silence truth?
Is it talking to me?

1723
02:03:07,680 --> 02:03:12,800
Yes.
I'm going to stand on my broom,

1724
02:03:13,320 --> 02:03:19,080
slowly descend and just say
truth.

1725
02:03:20,360 --> 02:03:25,200
You seek truth in this of all
places.

1726
02:03:26,400 --> 02:03:31,040
I am the reliquary of the Laura.
I am the truth.

1727
02:03:32,760 --> 02:03:39,520
I hold all the memories.
The Laura worships me, not the

1728
02:03:39,520 --> 02:03:45,600
other way around.
God damn.

1729
02:03:45,680 --> 02:03:50,960
OK, Shivers.
The silence from the shattered

1730
02:03:50,960 --> 02:03:54,880
bell hangs heavy.
The air ripples the ash, and the

1731
02:03:54,880 --> 02:03:59,080
chamber stops.
The molten light across the bell

1732
02:03:59,080 --> 02:04:02,680
flares once, guttering like a
startled flame.

1733
02:04:03,600 --> 02:04:07,200
For a single breath.
No one moves then.

1734
02:04:07,200 --> 02:04:10,320
Rhythmatic effect.
Also I'm I have my shield out

1735
02:04:10,320 --> 02:04:14,280
obviously with all the faces and
the masks on it and I have my 3

1736
02:04:14,280 --> 02:04:20,680
masks floating around me.
OK then all nine acolytes, I

1737
02:04:20,680 --> 02:04:24,440
said 9 correct?
Yeah, OK.

1738
02:04:24,760 --> 02:04:28,600
All nine acolytes collapse to
their knees as one, their masks

1739
02:04:28,880 --> 02:04:31,360
striking the stone with a chorus
of cracks.

1740
02:04:31,720 --> 02:04:37,240
The black wax in their palm
boils the voice.

1741
02:04:38,240 --> 02:04:43,720
The Keeper remembers.
The flame speaks through flesh.

1742
02:04:44,840 --> 02:04:47,400
1 raises her head.
The split porcelain, now half

1743
02:04:47,520 --> 02:04:52,000
half melted, is a dull ember red
beneath the mass fracture.

1744
02:04:53,280 --> 02:04:57,320
We were told that the reliquary
was, was, was lost, that that

1745
02:04:57,320 --> 02:05:00,600
velour wept until her silence
became prayer.

1746
02:05:01,920 --> 02:05:08,160
If you are what you claim, then
the mountain will open it's

1747
02:05:08,160 --> 02:05:15,280
heart memory.
Hear us, burn us clean, show us

1748
02:05:15,760 --> 02:05:19,560
what we forgot.
And that's where we're going to

1749
02:05:19,560 --> 02:05:24,120
end tonight's session.
God damn.

1750
02:05:24,720 --> 02:05:28,320
Damn dude.
Very.

1751
02:05:28,320 --> 02:05:31,400
Very nice.
I might, I might have fucked

1752
02:05:31,400 --> 02:05:40,280
that up a little bit because I
wasn't, if I'm the reason these

1753
02:05:40,280 --> 02:05:43,680
things happen now, I'm I might
have messed that up.

1754
02:05:47,120 --> 02:05:49,920
Yeah, that was, that was
awesome.

1755
02:05:50,400 --> 02:05:52,200
I enjoyed.
I was trying to just convince

1756
02:05:52,200 --> 02:05:56,240
them to like hey be my lackey
hey instead hey.

1757
02:05:56,560 --> 02:05:58,640
Yo.
Sounds like you did, yeah.

1758
02:05:58,720 --> 02:05:59,640
And.
That's something.

1759
02:05:59,720 --> 02:06:02,000
Yeah, but I also might open
whatever heart thing or.

1760
02:06:04,800 --> 02:06:09,000
I mean to be fair I was gonna
say I am the mountain because I

1761
02:06:09,000 --> 02:06:12,200
have been called the mountain
before from the mountain.

1762
02:06:14,720 --> 02:06:19,800
We're the mountain and the
memory, yeah.

1763
02:06:20,880 --> 02:06:25,840
Twinsies.
I executed the peaks and the

1764
02:06:25,840 --> 02:06:29,480
mountains marked.
Beautiful.

1765
02:06:29,520 --> 02:06:34,240
So you guys are primed and set
and ready to go to prepare for

1766
02:06:35,080 --> 02:06:37,560
the the Pyre Hart accord
procession.

1767
02:06:38,680 --> 02:06:41,760
But first, it looks like you got
to deal with some hollow house.

1768
02:06:41,760 --> 02:06:44,640
But they may.
We'll see what happens.

1769
02:06:45,600 --> 02:06:47,880
Yeah, I was not expecting.
I gotta ask, are they, are they

1770
02:06:47,960 --> 02:06:50,520
part of the Dominion?
No, no, they're.

1771
02:06:51,040 --> 02:06:52,760
Separate fashion.
Yep, the hollow host.

1772
02:06:53,000 --> 02:06:55,240
Separate faction, so.
I was gonna say cuz I gotta

1773
02:06:55,240 --> 02:06:57,560
urinate and my.
God.

1774
02:06:58,160 --> 02:07:00,400
