Transcript

Move everything over to this new virtual tabletop, which is what we used to play online a lot. But Eric let me use his account to make this right here. And as you can see, it's a tool that allows me to actually have lighting and control vision, I guess, a bit more accurately. Make doors, make walls. So I'm not just removing boxes. And one note, it also allows me with my WAC to actually move. That's pretty sexy. Yes. And if anyone, I guess everyone with a laptop here, technically I could invite and y'all could run this on your laptop. I could make you your own person and you can move it as well to control your own visual perspective. But we're not there yet. You're not there yet. But yes, y'all would find yourselves still after this long rest hanging out in these groups. What would y'all do? A lot of the cryptos. Because we did a couple of double backs a little bit. We went one direction and saw that there was a room, and went back another direction and saw there were more rooms. We definitely did. I get to give myself an inspiration. Because I'm a human. When we get a long breath. Yep, yep, humans are OP that way. They should still have their inspiration. They gave them when we did some singing. Some instrument playing. Singing. - Body burning? - Well around the neck. Um. I guess I need to give Jables the ability to see. Yeah. Yeah, so I need to cast it on an item. Because it is worn out. It is... 20 foot radius and dim light for an additional 20. I got 20-20. So I did put the light in here correctly. So I'm doing 20 foot dim or 20 foot bright. We immediately editing the scripts in order to continue to explore. I think so. I think that was our plan. We really just needed the rest because we needed to like... We needed the health. Yeah, we needed the health and all that kind of deal. We've just backed around a little bit, you know. That was hot. I think we go to the right. To this way? That's my boat. Yeah, I know that. Because it was the other direction we went first, right? Yes. Yeah. Yeah, because this is where we went up and we just kind of looked and we were like, nah, let's turn back for a second. So yeah, I agree. Let's go this way. So as you come right about right here, I'm just using this thing. Everyone give me perception. Oh, I didn't bring my dice. I forgot to get mine out. Oh. 14 14 still not bad. 17. 17. So collectively, Jables and Iridell are going to notice that this room, like many of the other rooms, seems not to have been used in a very long time. It seems rather dilapidated as well. Gray is going to kind of also notice that the silence is very pronounced in this area. Other than, of course, the chanting that you've been hearing as you've been coming down in this dungeon, like this kind of rhythmic chanting that you can't really discern the direction from. But other than that, you're not really hearing the noises of other individuals. But you would find yourself in this room, which is a room with a wooden table and chairs. It seems to be like a meek living quarters. Tell me where you guys would go. Seems pretty open for the most part. You see a couple little doorway areas. Yeah, as you-- So which one would you want to look? I assume this one first, right? As you go and inspect this little alcove, you would see a moldy pallet. Yep, and you would see something similar in all these little alcoves, moldy straw pellets. Okay, so definitely. Kind of over there. If there were certain quarters above, these would be more like certain quarters maybe or something. That's my initial thought. Yep, and these cultists were not living ladders lives. What's around the corner? Because that was the whole thing, yeah. Yeah, so I guess this looks more like a... Yes, so, yes, this would lead you to another room if y'all are just continuing on. Yeah, I don't see any reason to really inspect any of it right now anymore. So as you guys would head in this room, you would immediately see a well in the middle of this larger room. And everyone give me a perception check once again. That's a six. 24. Damn. Something's blocking my perception in this area. I must have had a really good sleep. You must have not had a good sleep. There you go. Jables is able to tell that this room is similar to the last one, but Gray is able to really make out the fact that each one of these tiny rooms does look like kind of more... There is five of those. Do we want to go ahead and check out each of these little alcoves again? I'm kind of interested about the fountain in the middle. The well? Yeah, we'll check that out first. Maybe get a little closer to the well. Maybe peer in. I rolled a six, so I'll be the one to look. I have no idea what's going on. So you would notice that much like wells that you're used to seeing, there is a bucket hanging out. Thank you. inspect something more specific about this well i was just curious about the condition of it and also maybe looking down let's see if we can see the bottom down there see the bottom you can actually Yes, you can. You also have light cast right now. So you can see that looking down in this well, it's only 30 feet from what you guys can tell is probably water. It's kind of hard to tell from this distance away. Yeah, when we drop the bucket. You're easily able to drop down the bucket and pull up a bucket of water. Is there anything interesting about the water? Is it a weird color? Does it have a weird smell to it? It's regular water. I drink some of it. You are now hydrated. Yes. Hydration is very important. I waited to see if somebody else would drink it first, and now that it seems safe, I'm also going to drink some. Mine as well. Anyone who wants to drink this well water is 100% able to. What's the worst that could happen drinking well water? Well, we all played Oregon Trail in my elementary school, right? You have died of dysentery. Lord, and is he dysentery? Oregon Trail is... No, why don't they... A-plus programming right there. I need to make my nephews play it. It's an important part of education. So, which one of these rooms are y'all venturing into first? I want to just go... Clockwise, top, counterclockwise. Yeah, I'm cool with that. As you go to this one, you're going to see this room contains a chest. Is it locked? It's not. There you go. You get 11 gold pieces and 60 silver pieces in a pouch made of human skin. How do you know it's human skin? Do we want to split up gold? Or do we want to keep it? Is it obvious? Is it hairy still or something? Yeah, it's like you can see someone's like hairline on this so it's like someone has skelped. And they're skelps of the... Do we want to split the gold or do we want to stockpile it in one spot? Yeah, because we've got a lot of stuff that's just kind of in like a group thing right now, don't we? Like a lot of the books. Yeah, or group inventory. Anyway. - We got stuff to like maybe try to sell later and things like that too. - I still can't hear you.

  • A bag of holding.
  • I was also unsure what you said just a moment ago. Bag of holding makes more sense. Bag of holdings are bags of holding.
  • Is there anything else notable about the area or the bed or anything like that? Just that there was a chest and we got the stuff in it?
  • Yep.

I think we split up the gold. You can tell that the living quarters are in better condition. They are still very much like... This is a dungeon room. Melody, dank dungeon room. But you guys don't see too much other than that. So you can go straight to the next room after getting your pouch made of human skin. There was 11 gold and 60 cup. I guess we just put that in the team inventory for now? Yeah. Yeah, we'll see what all of these have. This room also has a chest. Oh, so you can open it? Yep, if it's unlocked, I figured I'd go ahead and open it. It is. None of these chests are locked. This one contains three moss maggots folded in a piece of black cloth. Three moss egg

  • A-G-A-T-E. - Yes.
  • Okay. - Yes.

I know that because of video games. Warcraft. Is not cooperating with me. Much like the last room, that is pretty much all you're going to find. Pray tell me there's another chest in room three. Oh, well, you are in luck, Travis. This room does contain a chest, which as you go to unlock it, it is not locked. This one is going to contain a black leather eye pouch. Eye patch.

  • Too many.

This one has a carnelian sewn into it. But if you wanted to just put black leather eye patch, Dungeon Colt. And that, much like the last one, is pretty much all you're going to find in this chest. So this one has a chest unlocked, which is going to contain an ivory hairbrush with silver bristles. Why do these cultists have these things in these chests, you might be asking yourself. We'll never find a clue. Nope. Yeah, this one is, that's a little bit more... It's silver bristles. Silver bristles on an ivory hairbrush. Interesting. As you inspect this room further, you're not going to find anything else of note. As soon as we go into the last one. So this one is going to contain a chest, much to your surprise. And this chest is not locked. This one is going to have a silvered short sword. The silvered means that it has some special properties against certain monsters? It will. It will. I'm pretty sure Iridil would know the implications of the silvered short sword. Yes. I can't touch the tip of that without it hurting. It would hurt you, I know. Do I notice anything else about it? Do I notice anything else about any of these items that we found? So I can have Iridil shed some light on that. What did you say? That I have to be very careful touching silver things because it hurts. You do. So as Iridil would. --is official fighting stuff. So Iridel would be able to tell you guys that some monsters have immunity or resistance to non-magical weapons, but are susceptible to silver weapons. So it's like lycanthropes, undead, a lot of different kinds of creatures from the void. So this is like a monster-killing weapon, in essence. Would it be effective against ghouls like we came across earlier? Yes. So werewolves, devils, spirits, and undead would be affected by these kinds of factors. That's what I kind of had in my head. I just wanted to make sure that I was thinking the right thing. So if you were to prick his finger, he wouldn't die, but he would be feeling more than a finger prick. Although you're not undead, you're just half vampire, so... Right. It just hurts more. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. It's like having an allergy. I could hold on to it. I was going to say, which one of us wants to hold on to that? Because either one of us could really make use of that. I would say maybe you, because you're just a sword man in general. What's your weapon proficiency? I was simple in martial. Which means you can use pretty much anything. What would the stats of the short sword be if I was swinging it? It's just the silver shortsword, right? It's a 1D6. Thank you. Are you looking at 5E tools? Uh, sources Dungeon Master's Guide, page 304. As long as we're looking at the same thing. I don't know if I'm looking at how we're supposed to reach. So reach 5 feet, 1d6, plus 1, piercing, weight 2. That makes sense. Just pulled it from the . I don't use the character sheet, so I don't have D&D ground for that. The other rooms, not a lot in this one other than this chest with this silver short sword. The same thing, tortilla chips and queso. Yes, yes. In fact, I was going to let it go to bowl because I do also have certain needs. And I'm fairly certain that that one is cash. It is not, actually. It's not? And I believe it is your hit, Travis. You hit this right now. I think so. Travis the bowler. It's a dangerous one though. The lewet? Yeah. Yeah. Very efficiently. I know. And he's also got a lot of room on the other side as well. Not at all. Not at all. laughter

  • I think to assume that short sword uses strength.
  • Do short swords? - Lead up. I should know more about short swords, but I don't. Because I use magic.

Because that really will be the definer. If it uses dex, we'll give it to... It's got finesse, so I think you can juice. Oh, it does have finesse. Good thing about short swords. That's cool, because that also means we can pass it around. Precisely. Finesse weapon's huge. I suspected, I just needed to confirm. I had no idea. About the weapon properties? Well, yeah. So that one. Weapon properties are huge. Like the Vex. God, this is so neat. What is? The Vex. Giving yourself advantage on successive attacks against the target. Not gonna lie, I'm still having a whole lot of trouble picking my oath. It's coming up. It is, it is. You don't want help, do you? No. There you go. So I get to just watch you suffer. Well... Yeah, that just came in handy for me against those ghouls. Yes, yes. And you get to start doing arcane trickster stuff next fucking level too, so everyone starts to really feel the flavor of their classes. - I haven't tried your cookies and cream one yet, but it tastes really funny. - No, I haven't opened those yet. - Really? - I couldn't have my, so the ones that weren't bought when I went over to Travis's, that pretty much starts.

  • Still haven't finished this one, I'm about halfway on it.
  • Nice, nice.
  • But I was eating this hard all last, or not last night, the night before.
  • Yeah. I need to finish mine off too.
  • I went up to, yeah. I'm one of those kind of people where I can go up to Silo at 9 o'clock and stay literally until 2, so that's what I did by myself. I was there, there were like literally 10 people on the dance floor when I got there.

That's a good shit though, because you actually get to kind of like just vibe, and then you get to vibe assholes. And then as I started getting drunker, it started getting crazier, and it just worked out very nicely. Hell yeah. I ran into a guy who was friends with the owner. Back in like high school and college, or not high school, back in college days in New Orleans, because they both went to LSU and were frat brothers and stuff. So he knew him back in those days when he was doing underground reggae and shit like that. I dig that. I dig that. It was pretty cool. It was probably not going to taste great immediately after having spice and ketchup. You know, you're probably right. You're probably right.

  • Still tastes really good. I followed up immediately with the court.

You got to, right? You got to. I still haven't even had much chance or need to use my cantrips at all. Because mine are all just kind of weird. At least at this moment. The minor wonder things and then... Welcome back, welcome back. So, you guys finished inspecting this fifth room and you find yourself back in the main room. Like, goop in these fucking cultists a little bit. Just a snitch. Well, I just realized what I was putting my root beer on. That is definitely a dick in the heart. That's my favorite one. Because if you're not clued into it for like a second, it can definitely take a second to realize what the fuck you're looking at there. Good stuff. Surprise he came through with. Yeah. You need to let me get some. Yeah, did not disappoint him. I made it. Didn't want to grab your poker. All right, let's get it on. Y'all going to continue on? There's only one way for us to go, right? There is. Might as well. As you guys walk down this hallway, let me confirm, I'm not pretty sure. I didn't get the gold and silver. How much did we find of that? 11 gold, 60 silver. As you guys mosey your way down, you will be able to see, kind of as the model says, you can peek in and see that the room that would be straight, I guess, to your left, seems to be that room with all the bones and signs of cannibalism that y'all had been in before. Okay, so that's the one where we went. What would be down looking on the map and we started running into it. Y'all haven't been down yet. Sorry, I'll head you down. Did we give somebody the short sword? I do believe that Jables took it because Vanessa loves him. Down this hallway, you're going to get to another crossroads, which is going to be familiar to you again. As you remember this as the hallway to your left, the one that you guys were attacked by ghouls in. And then there's a way down that you stop a bit. You will hear, though, from this way that y'all haven't been, the chanting will grow louder. So based on the way that thing's facing to our right, we're hearing the changing. If we're facing-- so yeah, so that-- You're hearing the changing from down here. OK, yeah. But then the other way, that's where we ran into the ghouls. This is where you guys had the ghoul party. Yeah, we didn't explore any of the other little outlets from there after that point. We just kind of immediately backed off, right? Yeah. Do we want to check out what was past the rules that way, or do we want to just keep going... Basically where we're hearing the chanting. I mean, we did find some goop. There might be more goop. There might be more goop. More ghoul goop. It sounds like y'all are going this way, yes? I'm going to look for ghoul goop. All right, y'all will walk over the corpses of those ghouls that you did see. find two directions. You can continue to go straight or you can go down. You haven't been either way, I do not believe this. Which one of the first two guys? Uh, I mean, we're already facing to the right, maybe. Alright, as y'all would find yourselves in this room, perception checks. 16. 12. 12, 4, okay. So... That's a big money shot there, Trim. Thanks. This room is festooned with moldy skeletons that hang from rusty shackles against the walls. A wide alicove in the south wall contains a painted wooden statue carved in the likeness of a gaunt, pale-faced man wearing a voluminous black coat. Cloak. God damn it. His pale left hand resting on the head of a wolf that stands next to him. In his right hand, he holds a smoky gray crystal orb. This room exits in the west north walls. Chanting can be heard coming from the west. So back away, y'all gang. You are continuing to hear the chanting. So that was the only exit? Is that the way we came? No, so down here. I thought I was feeling down there. Is there anything about the statue of the guy that like, is it nostalgic in any way? Does it feel weird? History with the advantage. And with year 16 perception. Ray would be the only one to notice that there is actually a secret wall in this room. There's a secret wall. A secret tunnel. Me. That was, yes. Oh, God. So the advantage is I roll two dice and take the higher? Yes. Because of his backstory. 21. 21. Excellent. And it was a roll of 20 if that changes anything. It wasn't that 20? Yeah. It does. It does. So you would recognize this as strud. I'm high, and I just put a wall there. But you guys would be able to tell that in this area right here, you're able to push this kind of moldy clay in and reveal a secret chamber. Secret tunnel. Secret tunnel. And as you go in, you're going to see a very brief staircase that leads up to a hatch. So we got a couple options. Well, so I mentioned that that's Strahd to the group because I'm the only one that would have known that. Yes, yes, that is undoubtedly the likeness of Strahd. The statue? Yes. Okay, that's what I was wondering as well because I know we had heard that name and I was like, well, if he's a big figure, maybe that's it. We've seen him like in books, read you when you were a kid so you remember the pictures of his body. Very prolific figures. What else are y'all doing? Are you going to open the hatch? Do we want to check the hatch? Do we want to... What was the thing you said, Chris? Something about the statue? Since we recognize it, I guess we could walk closer and inspect it. Am I hesitant to touch the statue for any reason? Why would you be? Well, I mean, potentially based on that history check, you know, like what did it, you know, am I, am I concerned by what I remember of Strahd? You're deep. Well, you are, but not necessarily in ways that would make you scared of a statue of them. But you know, your stories were, weren't pleasant. Um, the stuff that you heard, it was kind of like almost the boogeyman. Um, He would take you in the dead of night. You would be trapped in his misty lands until he, you know, took your soul. But, you know, you know. Creepy. cough Is it a... Can we do a... Investigation? Yeah, investigation. Is that a real crystal orb, or is that also just like... Because you said the statue is like carved wood. It is. Yeah, give me an investigation to see if you can really take a good, close look at this crystal orb. Oof. Can I also... Yeah, you guys can inspect this orb. What's wrong with it? Investigation. 14. 14. Yes, you guys look better than me. With your two 14s, you would be able to tell that this is an actual smoky crystal or rather large. It's like the size of a cantaloupe. Take the word. Is it independent of the statue? Did you go to pick it up? That's a scary question. She was excited. Did I look excited? So more places to explore and everything too. Yeah, we can always come back. Let's go to Secret Tunnel. Secret Tunnel? Okay. Yeah, because it goes up to a hatch. It might go to something on the first floor. Because I'm Mokey Crystal. I'm supposed to know about all of the secret passages and stuff because I looked at the dollhouse. This one in particular, you wouldn't have seen, interestingly enough, because it actually didn't reveal anything about this dungeon or the basement. Exactly. Yeah, but I'm wondering if the secret hatch comes up in one of the other secret passages or something. It comes up in the middle of that werewolf den you guys experienced on the first floor. So you would find yourself back in like the very first floor of the house. Where you got all those crossbows. Okay, so a good way out. Yeah, a good quick way out. That's good to know. But since it just goes there, I figure we're just going back down, but we'll... I'll have mentioned, yeah, we'll... Oddly suspicious that there's an exit to the outside right from the statue. Oh yeah, from this close where all these people are chained up, it is a little... It's a suspiciously close access. There's a lot of suspicious shit in this fucking house and statue. Well, I'm gonna... And we know... Didn't we... Did we assume that that was the father's room? Well, yeah, it's like this study or something at least. Yeah, so it's going to be, this is going to be just me being the gray character is probably just going to out loud say, well, this is even just more evidence against the father. But then... These are real good people. Lost their kids up to starve to death. Had people dying in their basement. Ate people. Worshipped a vampire lord like... Who wouldn't like these kind of guys, right? Like, they seem wholesome. It's kind of weird that they worship a vampire lord but have silvered weapons. That isn't a very interesting observation, is it? Oh yeah, and the hairbrush with the silver, that was just two of the people that were in that little area. Yeah. Why would they, though? I'm taking questions. I mean, I guess if you're hanging out with creatures of the dark, you got to protect yourself. I didn't think there was one in there. From here, we're probably just going to, do we want to go down and just continue exploring before we steal shit? You're listening to... I wouldn't say accurate, you know? It implies a lot. It is the implications though, right? Finders keepers really steal them. Question is the question. Yes, thank you. God is with you. Robert, are you grabbing root beer? Thank you, sir. Never mind, Jonathan. I gave you, or I gave him yours. You have been thieved. Yes, I know. We're going down the passage.

  • Not doing anything else in that room, right?
  • Yeah, maybe a little hesitant to steal the orb. I'm gonna just continue checking this out.
  • Okay, I like that. You're gonna turn this corner and there's gonna be a door. - What is your marching order? Like who would be first?
  • I mean, I should probably be, should be in the front.
  • Yeah, I'll probably be right next to you, just a little bit behind.
  • Okay, and I assume you're gonna go see if this door is locked?
  • Yeah.
  • Yeah, we'll check it.
  • Okay. As you go to grab the handle of the door, you are going to become adhered to it. Because this isn't a door, It's a Mimic. I told you!

I didn't hear anything about that. Mimics can be dorks? What all can Mimics be in D&D and what I know? We're gonna handle that after this combat. Okay. You know, you make some rolls. We're just going to do this here? Roll the AC. Initiative? Yeah, initiative. Sorry, I'm already high as tits. Six. Six. Two sixes? Ten. always having bad initiative on our battles? I've had a good one, I think once. It's either really good or really bad. There's no in between from what I've experienced personally. We have two sixes, and which one of y'all's dexes is higher? Mine's 13. 13. 15. OK, so I mean, that makes sense. We got a road. Mm-hmm. But-- except of the minute we don't know which girls we don't pretty simple creatures um but the most exposure i have to mimics was in a career which is basically just her getting her face like that and being chewed on while her butt jails in the camera in my defense i joked that it was a mimic because i thought there was no way it was a minute What's the worst that can happen, right? What was yours again, Jables? J-Bull's at the top of the round. You are effectively grappled by the skeptic. Right. - So it basically just works like grapples, so can I use my action though?

  • Yeah, athletics check.
  • Is that what it would be, athletics check? Can I use a luck point to get my self advantage?

You'll be making with disadvantage, so your luck point would make the roll right there. Yes. I'll just do it with disadvantage on the special. Sometimes you have disadvantage in life, you know, with a rapper. - Probably a 13. Oh yeah. Just enough. But you're able to pull yourself away from this mimic. That was Jack. It was. I should have let them down. Although I'm going to guess sacred flame is in action. Just um - Reaction spit on the mimic. - Okay. Reaction spit, excellent, excellent.

  • I guess I'll, I don't wanna give it an opportunity.
  • And it will take the opportunity to do that.
  • I know. I'll kinda just try to like, if I can just hug the wall to be out of the way for, you know, the friends wanting to attack. Like I'll just have my shield.
  • Okay.

I don't have a bonus action able to dodge. If that's your turn, that takes a degree. All right. Well, I guess-- Maybe I do a history check to see what I know about mimics before I start attacking. Maybe a history check. Let's see what I know. Oh, no. Nine. You know that they turn into things. And you now know that they adhere to people. Okay, cool. Is it still in the shape of a door? Yeah. But now is it like a door in the mouth or what? What is the door made out of? What material? It was like a dilapidated wooden door. Um, for right now, when it takes its turn, it'll take it, it'll do some stuff, but it looks like a door right now. And it didn't, like, bite you. It just, like, I was just, blah. You were, like, glinting to it, and you were like, fuck! Like, right on the door. Like a Venus flying trap. Exactly. But, uh, Alright, well, shit, maybe I don't want that time, and I don't know what to do. Um, You can have range attack it. Yeah, I've got the short bow, so I think-- since I know for sure it's a mimic at this point, since I've done a history check, I'm like, OK, so I guess this is a mimic. Yeah, I guess I'll just go ahead and shoot it with my short bow, just out of reaction. Because I'm like, oh, a bad guy thing? Shoot, because that's great. So just roll for the hit. Yep. Roll me an attack roll. That's eight. This is unfortunate. perception check is really good. What do you use for the attack roll? Uh, this right here.

  • Be different too. Because, yeah, my spells don't have a thing like that.

I assume that's your turn on the bus? You're going to turn your off in? Well, my offhand is a dagger. I don't want to... I'll just take a really bad shot at a door and completely miss a door with my short bow. You accidentally hit the wall instead of hitting the door? Yeah, and I might back up a little bit because I've been having good luck with my ranged attacks so far and I don't know that much about mimics aside from making changes to things. You were the purple guy, right? I don't know which one was I. No, I was the... You were the red guy. Yeah, I think so. You're going to back up just a little bit? Yeah, so I'm going to back up to basically just as far back against that wall as I can be. There you go. You're able to do so successfully. Yeah, I'll just leave it at that for now and see how the rest of the fight goes so I can figure out what's going on. You're done. This seems to be my thing for now. So I just want to make sure that I understand before I decide what I want to do. So you can do one action, which is either an action or a spell, and then a bonus action. Is there anything else that you can do? Like a... But just those two things. You can do one action and one bonus action? In the short of it, yes. You can do reactions, but those you should have triggering effects to do. Right. Okay. Okay. It's like talking and some item interactions could also happen, but this is Okay, well I will use my thorn whip to attack. 21. So now I do the damage roll, right? Yeah. Five. And then for my bonus action, I do produce flame.

  • To my boy, the mimic. He is going to use one of his bonus actions and he's going to shape shift back into his true blob form. So it is no longer a door, it is actually now a blob. And then it is going to take an attack against Jables, who is the one still standing directly in front of it, yes? - Mm-hmm. - Okay. There we go, let's hit you with that roll.

That's cracking me up. So the first attack is going to be-- Swing and a miss, you know what I'm saying? Swing and a miss. Damn. Damn. Okay, so it's going to try to hit you with an attack. Or it did hit you with an attack. So you are, are you, you're medium, right? Human. What's human? Medium? Oh, your size. You're a medium-sized creature, right? I believe so. You are grappled. What's that like? It gives you a hug. It gives you the most painful hug of your entire life. And it's going to deal seven bludgeoning damage to you and five acid damage to you. Here's the description of grapple if that helps. Oh, I've got it. And that is going to be his turn. I'll be bloody. And that takes it back to you, James. At the top of the round. Oh, yeah, that's right. He was still getting picked. What size is the blob? ...to you guys. But a blob. Am I still considered medium? I'm not small? You're probably small. I think gnomes and halflings are small creatures. Yeah, I am small. I had to find it on here. Monster medium. I do not believe there are any innately large races. I'm not seeing any disadvantage to attacking him or anything. Him? I don't think. Are you trying to look up what grapple does? No, I mean I'm looking at what grapple does. Speed zero ends when they're incapacitated or when they move out of their reach. But like, I should still just be able to hit him with the sword that I'm holding, right? Yeah, 100%. Especially since he's like, yeah. I'm using the look point and I'm hitting him with the sword that I'm holding in my hand. I'm also going to use my Paladin Smite to Divine Smite him when I hit him. Yeah, it's funny that I grapple doesn't do a lot, but some creatures grapples also like Restrain and Incapacitate. That's when you're all fucked up. A long sword will just do four. And then... How does a blob grapple if it doesn't have hands? Is it a fiend? Like on a water droplet? I don't think it's a fiend. It's like a... It blobs on you. Exactly. It's like a hug, except a painful hug. A hug that tries to kill you.

  • And 16. - 16? - Yup. - Wow. - I maxed it out. - That's what she's running for?
  • Let's get stuff, let's get stuff.
  • A spin arm again. It's bloodied this time, but it's spit nonetheless.
  • Would you be surprised to hear that the medic's into that? - I don't even care. It's about sending a message. Thank you. - Did you see Jables get grappled to bloody?
  • Yeah, I'm bloody, yeah.
  • That wasn't really a door that I have waiting for you guys in here.
  • But I slapped him for 20. How's he looking? He's not bloody? - No. - Cool.
  • He is being bloody.
  • Strange enough, was it blind?
  • It is. - All right. I mean, I guess at this point I'm just gonna continue with my shooting with the short bow, now that I'm a little further away and feel safer. What else did you expect from that at this point? That is a good move. I'll just do that first and see how that goes. Twelve.

That would be a glancing buff. Good afternoon. Three or two? Oh wait, no, does it... The plus two means you roll it twice? Oh no, no, sorry, yeah. It was five. It was a three and then plus two is a four. Leave it for three, so... Bam! Bam! Okay. Doesn't show the five on the screen. Yeah, because it says one do six plus two and then, yeah, get five. Excellent. Yeah, since it was glancing. Okay, that makes sense. Since it was glancing. Okay, yeah. That's your turn? Yeah, I guess I don't have anything else to do. I'll just call out. I was like, at least I hit that one. At least I kind of hit that one. I hit that one, guys. Ear though. We'll cast Healing Word on Jables. Good move, good move. I'm going to get an 8. Total. Can I get any help? Yeah. I'm not bloodied right now. I'm not bloodied right now. Do you have, like, 20 of them? Maybe. Maybe that's exactly what I have. Total. Is that what I'm back at too? No, but that is... That's all right. This guy's only trying to do like 13-ish damage to you per turn, but not 12-ish. Yeah, it could be immediate. Probably. Yeah, it's kind of what I feel. I was like, you know what? He can hold on to me. I'll be his ass. His teeth are right there. Especially since this is like surprisingly deadly. Find a mimic in the dark alleyway. Dark dungeon. I'm trying to see if there's anything else I can do. Oh, you healed him. Sorry, yeah. Sorry, sorry. I freaked out. I was like, wait. You didn't damage it. The Lord's work is what they do. Bonus action, right? Healing word is... It is a bonus action. Oh, it's a bonus action? It is. You can action can't shift this motherfucker. Exactly, I was about to say, you did take a bonus action last round to do produce flames. Yeah, so I'm going to throw that fire. Just right at the blob. You're going to do it with disadvantage where you're standing because you are with a fight. As you can see, I'm using my best possible menu right there. I mean, you can back up and not be disadvantaged, right? Yeah, I jump back 10 feet and throw my fireball, my flame. Thank you. Because this isn't a very large birthday yellow, right? It's a 1v8. What was your roll to hit? I have not rolled it yet. The VA, right? Mm-hmm. Well, you rolled a d20 to hit. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And what does disadvantage mean again? You don't have disadvantage now. Oh, okay. Disadvantage means you roll two hits on the lowest. Okay. 17. Yeah, that hits. That definitely hits. Okay. Disadvantage is not nice. Six. Excellente. Six damage. Let me see. I did things. You did. Lots of things. That was a very productive turn it was. Everybody smacked him up in that round. Is bloody actually? It's bloody. It has or less, yeah. Pretty sure I've asked that before. Sometimes if I'm close to bloody but not quite, I'll joke around and say I'm bruised. It actually is. It is just bloody. Good. Just bloody to the last. - That is your turn, right, Jables? Or not Jables, you're down?

  • That would be the end of my turn, 'cause I took an action and a bonus action.
  • Yep, and that takes it to my boy, The Mimic, who has you grappled, yes?
  • Yeah, I'm grappled. - Nope. I just hit speed zero, he's holding on to me. Unless, yeah, unless he's got some flavor, you know, I don't know that.

I'm about to tell him. - Can he move with you grappled?

  • I don't know how that works. I wasn't bothering to look that up or anything. I imagine if he wanted to move while I was grappled, he might have to check the grapple again or something, I don't know.
  • He's actually mad that he adhered to him as the thing.

Interesting. No, he doesn't actually because that's his item form. He just has you grappled. Maybe in that athletics check. So it'll be tough to slow it down and move less distance. Terrible. A seven. A seven? He unfortunately, as he starts moving, is able to maintain the grab one. Going to hit his globular form. He's going to walk up and he is going to take a single attack against you, Irdil. As he's moving, can I, like, he's technically moving past me. I can do him. He's moving with you. So, like, you're moving with him. Can I not do an opportunity attack? No. If you're moving around me? If you would have gotten better on that athletics, you would be out of it. But you rolled Doctrine. There's nothing about I can't take opportunity attacks from grapplers. Well, you're not taking an opportunity attack. That's what I'm at. I mean, he moved past. If he was here, he was going to move in. No, you're moving with him. I just didn't move your mini. I get it. I get it. I can't put, like, you want me to put him in between your leg? I mean, the other way around? I can do that. Because that's essentially what's happening right now. Being... blob. That attack against you, Iridil, is a 23. So that's against my AC, right? Yes. That hits because it's a 14. That hits. Excellent. So that's going to be seven bludgeoning and five asses, and you are also grappled. Seven and five, so 12. It doesn't say he can't have, or he can only have one person grapple by this at a time. I can feel the liquid life leaving me. It's globular now. That's all you can do. So that's going to be his turn. That takes it back to you, Jables. I'm going to assume you're bloodied as well. Yep. I'm bloodied, decidedly. So are Jables and I like touching now? Like we're within reach. Yes. And capable. Because you're inside of the same blob. And it's funny that the blob is only medium-sized, so you would definitely be making contact. In my head, it's looking like a Dragon Ball Z Super Galaxy donut. Oh, my God. Wait a second. You're bleeding right now, teacher. Boo with one of his blocks coming off and wrapping around you or something. It is kind of like that. I love that. Let's get imagery right. This is a blob bludgeoning me so hard. Like, blobbed me into the wall. Cracked my head on the wall. Exactly. It's just like the force of the liquid. I guess if somebody smacks you in the face with a gallon of water, it would hurt. A gallon of water trying to strangle you to death. Doesn't a gallon of water always do that, though? Not like this one. Next level water. Like having a truckload of Jell-O drop on your face. Would I know if it would be more damaged by the silvered sword if I were to smack it with it? There's only one way to find out though. What? Yeah, I might as well. The image isn't that different from the other sword that I was using. It's free action to switch weapons once, right? Yes. Yeah, so I'll just use the fucking sword on it. And I'm going to use another luck point. ...to attack with advantage on this bastard. Damn, I was one-off from a fucking... So that's a... 21. That doesn't hit. Terrible. Three from the short sword, but I'm smiting this hell. Okay. Trace from the short sword. I'm smiting this hell. Darkship, but it's all right. Five from the smite. And I can't move. So I think that will be it. I spit on him again. I carefully try not to spit on your dog. But I'm sorry, 100% spit on the dog. Trying not to spit on your dog. Yeah, if I have to make a check, I have to. Maybe a performance check. Oh, I can do that. That's a fucking net 20. What are you talking about? I'm proficient in my performances. I've been in the hot...

  • I've been saving this one up. - Wow, wow, is that your turn? If I can, I spit again. But yeah, I spit my turn.

Alright. Yeah, my first thought is I want to move the maximum distance I can across the room that we're in. Since I'm kind of in the doorway, I want to back out into the bigger room just to get distance on him so he's further away from me. But then immediately, same thing, I just want to try to shoot with my short bow again. And I want to ask, did my glancing blow still count enough to give me effects? Because I just have to do damage to it. So you would try to move back here a little bit? Yeah, I would move back there. I'd move, I don't know, how much distance is it to the center of the room? You could definitely move to the center. Yeah, because I would be like, I would want to move back here, like a good distance away. Because it's right there, right? Yeah, because I can still see it from right there. Actually, we'll keep everyone right here just to preserve the intensity. of this clusterfuck right now.

  • Yeah, yeah. So I would move back there and then I would definitely hit him with my short bow. And so now I have advantage and that means two and then keep the highest, right? - Yep.
  • Okay. - Two dice and take the highest.
  • And that's just for the hit, right? - Yes. - Okay. So short bow, let's see what we get here. Oh, that's not 20. So 24, that's 20. So I'm just gonna keep that and then roll my,
  • 11. - So what's the normal?
  • It's like 1D6.
  • It rolled two for me. So I got a five and a four. It gave me two, yeah. When I got the nat 20, it gave me two to roll. It gave me a five and a four. It just told me.
  • That is rules as written. Usually what we do is you would roll once and then you would take the maximum.
  • Okay, so in that case it would be five.

5 plus your rule in like 1d6 plus... Plus 2 is what it says. Perfect. So 5 plus 6 plus 2.

  • So like you roll a d6.

The fact that it's a nat 20 is like you would take the maximum of your potential damage on it.

  • Yeah, rules is written, you would roll it twice, but you can roll ones on both of those, and then it's like why the fuck did I crit in the first place?
  • That's a house rule that we use.
  • Yeah, so the house rule is that one of the first d6, you don't even roll it, it's just automatically a six. And then you roll the next one. - Okay.
  • This is with the wind.
  • The double-edged sword of this?
  • That was the part that I-- - That's how it works when we get crit too? - Yeah. - I didn't catch that part. That was the part I was confused about.
  • Thank you for explaining that better.
  • I was like, where did this sword come from? I didn't hear the sixth part. Makes sense though, okay, got it.
  • Yeah, it feels way better when you crit than being like, "Wha-fah!" - I just have to be a nitpicker as I'm looking at this. When you're giving us visibility for the dark vision, are you giving us 60 feet for that?

Yes. Well, yes. Some things, it's mostly just turning corners. And as well, stuff like that. I was just curious. Because I don't think we had seen much that was like 60 feet away. That's true. We've also got the... Yeah, nothing's really been out of my 20 foot range yet. Right. It's kind of a tight... Yeah, so it even it even goes way just none of these none of these corners have been very long at all, but right Now I just curious because Yeah, so I think I mean that was a good shot so I think I'm just gonna kind of leave it there because I Got the way you got the hit in Is it plus two or plus four it was plus two on the total I

  • It would be plus four overall.
  • So it'd be 15.
  • Yeah. That's an excellent hit. Excellent hit.
  • One short of perfect, you know?
  • Yeah, yeah actually. But that's your turn, Gray. It does scream out in pain, that big a hit like that. - Nice.
  • That's with me? - Yeah.
  • Yeah, wow. Yeah, wow.

You know what? I'm going to... Sacred Flame is a primary action, right? Yeah. I'm gonna do that. And for here, this is Dex. Dex, are you okay? Yeah, so it'll be whatever your DC is. It passes, unfortunately. So that means I hit? No. Oh. So you make it roll a dex saving throw and I got a good roll. Enough that you don't even have to ask where my dex is. Not at this level, I'm not. Okay. And since I'm touching it, when I produce flame, I can do damage the first time. Is that like your rule now? Because this says I can't. Repeat the spell. A flickering flame appears in your hand that remains there for the duration. While there, the flame emits no heat and ignites nothing. Okay, never mind. So that's the damage for the second action only. Exactly. If it wasn't, it would be a magic action to make an attack against it. That's why you couldn't do it. Even if you're touching it, it would come down to like a melee, if anything. Okay, that's perfectly fair. And I will still do that as my bonus action to hold that flame in my hand. Yeah.

  • Yeah, you look, you would be able to produce that flame?
  • Is it bloody there holding that flame? - Yes, sir. - It's a threat. - I respect it.
  • It's coming.
  • I spit on it real good.
  • It's basically my version of that, you know? The bloody flames, they burn a little bit more red with a little white edge. - They do? - That's my turn.
  • Okay. Each of you make me athletics checks with disadvantage.

What's the disadvantage for both of them? Because you're grappled. No. That's not a part of grapple. No, it is this guy. Eleven. Part of his. What was the disadvantage on you guys right now? You said athletics? Yeah, it's just a nine. Damn. It was a nat 20 and then a five. Damn. Mine was a 17 and a 12, and I have a minus one. Take both of you guys with him as he moves over to grave. It takes his pseudo-partite against him. Music change would be a good time for this too. Let's see how well this attack is gonna go. Oh, that was dog shit. I assume a seven doesn't hit you. No? Okay. Damn. What did you have all three? You grabbed one of them. I got so lucky. You did. He rolled really bad. That's all he can do, right? Yep. And it's on the tables. Yeah. I'm in a good position to repeat my back the fuck away in long arrows. Did I notice that it didn't take any more damage to me visually from the silver sword versus my regular one? No, actually. This guy in particular. What color is the blood? Like transparent gray? Opaque gray? Opaque gray. I decided to be a part of it. It's how he's escaping. It doesn't know the difference. Maybe that's why I missed the first time in my actual first hit was a glance of Lowe. I was a little afraid that it was like, he's a brother. A brother in the grave. How are you describing? Oh my god. I'll switch back to my regular longsword then. I'm swinging at him. Excellent, excellent. Hit me with a roll. Hopefully it's good. Yeah, that would be 17. Excellent. Don't even roll any damage. Great god, get down to 180. As we continue to run around and set you guys... able to strike it down fuck that thing More amorphous, lifeless love. I'm not anymore. Not anymore? Yeah, just me now. I'm getting hit because it probably would have killed me pretty quick. Based on how much damage it was doing. I'm going to try to show you a good time for blobs. I'm blobbing good time. is over here. Let me see my proficiency. We need the next. It leaves you cool cats in this hallway once again. With there now being no door. Where'd the door go? I mean we could always take a short rest if you want to get some health back so you can roll some hit dice. I'm trying to see if I have anything that I can get help back quickly. I mean, short rest is just 30 minutes. Yeah. I mean, I'm cool with short rest. Okay. Maybe do a quick perception check on the new room, and then it looks like it's got table chairs. Maybe just sit down. Is that actually there? Yes. So as you guys head into this room, you would see there's a chandelier suspended above this table with two high-back chairs in the middle of this room. Which has an empty clay jug and two clay flags on top of it. So this is kind of like a much better furnished room and there's some candelabras over here too that are provided or that would have provided that. I still have the flame in my hand right? Can I use that to light them? You absolutely could. So this room is now lit. Cool. See that and I'd say yeah if we want to take that short rest we got some chairs you guys can sit down and take the rest. I'm good. And I'm down for a short rest. So I can just kind of-- I wish I got more back, but I'm going to heal myself. Give me a single d100 for this 30 minutes that y'all are going to take to collect yourself some games somehow. I rolled two d8s. Is that right? It would actually be two d10s. Your d100 is like two. Oh, no, I meant for the healing. Oh, for the healing. It's however many hit dice you want to spend. So, yeah, it would be two d8s. I'm sorry. I was already processing that as happening, you know. I was like, next on the stack is. If you want to roll it for real, I would just do it on that. I believe in you. That was a 37. So now I roll my. Plus two. So seven to nine. And then a 1, so 3, so 12. So you would see two ways out of this room. A way kind of to your north and then a way kind of to your west. And I just add that 12 back to my health rate. And at the end of our short rest, I play a song. And they still have their inspiration, but if I could, I would give them another one. Excellent. Excellent. I would do it. You can provide a lot of inspiration, can't you? Yep. Wow. You guys should be using that then. Basically gives you advantage on any role that you choose. Ability checks, support attack roles. Yeah, I keep forgetting about that. You can just be like, I'm going to use it. Mm-hmm. Is it like a use it once and then it's gone? And it's gone until, yeah. Okay. But it's good for if you're in like a desperate situation. Oh, yes. And I can give them to y'all at the end of any short rest or long rest, but I can only give it to myself at the end of a long rest. So, which way would y'all want to investigate? It's just a, it's just a, you get advantage. Oh, you just get advantage. Yeah. So, based on my mental math, The top route would just go back to that crossroads that we were at before where we decided to go right instead of down. So I say we just kind of ignore that and continue left. What do you guys say? I'm fine with that. So y'all want to continue this way? Reception checks as you guys all enter this room. You had some fucking... Several 20s, though, so... 23. Yeah, it's just been... 23? 7. 7. So... Shables and Grey enter this room and everyone would notice a large bed. This is kind of the nicest bedroom you've actually seen. You'd see a rotten wardrobe, you'd see some candlesticks in this room. Iridell is going to be the only one who notices. Also a footlocker, sorry. But Iredell would be the only one to notice that there's multiple sections of the wall that looks as though they're caved in slightly. Secret tunnels, secret tunnels. I'd go to interact with the closest caved in wall. To interact with the wall, two ghasts are gonna pop out of the tent, you guys. Shitty tunnel. I'm having a better feeling about the silver sword against these guys. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Ghast sounds like... Yes. So, let's move you guys back in here. Place yourselves wherever you would be. I'm... I would have been in the rear once again. I think that's the canonical reason for my bad perception role because I'm tiny. I was behind you guys. I was going to be peeping up in that footlocker. I'll be back up for a locker. I'm just, I got short wherever you want to be. You were interacting with the wall, right? It's right there. Yeah. These two things are guests. And as you guys-- They're right here. Yes, because they're kind of in the wall right now. And everyone, roll me initiative. Really nice, nice. Six. Hold on to that real quick. I'm going to refresh my page. Sometimes you're wondering like the dog shit online rolls. You feel better about when it rolls dog shit like in real life. Thirteen. It's nice to be able to choose. Yes, I completely agree. Do I trust real life right now or do I trust the simulation? How am I feeling? I like throwing number rocks. I also like my pretty pretty rocks. I have many of them. So I must roll them. See I probably wouldn't use it if I had to have one set of dice. Then when you're not feeling your dice... Now I think about giving myself a good set. You know what? Can I give you a... ...birthday present for myself? You'll start seeing them everywhere. This made me think of infected mushroom. I am very much looking forward to that. That's going to be very fun at the end of the month. Nat 20 for your initiative. Jables is probably going to go first. Top of the round is suspect of a safe roll. If Nat 20 right here, right now. That's my decimals, Your Honor. Six, I think. That's why I referred to my age. What was your number? Thirteen. It is J. Wilson, but that's right. I got one more of as good points as I ever was, you know what I'm saying? Y'all got that one covered, so I'm just walking up to this guy. As I jump up to him, I'm just switching to the silver sword, you know? It's just like all dramatic. I'm gonna use my... All dramatic! Yep. As you walk up to this ghast, you recognize it as Miss Durst from all the paintings that you've seen in the house. So she's the lady of the house. The lady who was starving the children. Yes, that locked her children in the attic. I used my inspiration. I'm going to get advantage on this one. If you two facing this one would notice this is Mr. Nurse. Thank God, I just did that. I'm just checking the dodge. There would have been a nat 1. That's only going to be an 8. Negative, unfortunately. Wow. Who's next? It's actually going to be this gas tank in front of you guys. The one right in front of us. Unfortunately. Well, at least J-Will got a chance to swing first. Yes. Yes. I respect it. She's definitely that. That takes it to the Mr. Nurse guest, who is the reverse centaur. He... Law attack is you here, Dil, for disturbing his howl. Okay. See how well he rolls. It's not going to hit. Nice. That's going to be its turn. It is going to actually move out of the little hole in the wall. And directly next to both of you. Which takes it to Miss Durst. And she is also going to do the same. She's going to move out of the wall. She's going to take a similar claw attack against you, Jables. Let's see if she rolls any quicker than her husband did. No! No, no, no. She did. So that's a dear no. This is our house now, you know? Yeah. So, because you started your turn within five feet of this ghast, You're gonna notice that this thing smells incredibly bad, so roll me a Constitution saving throw. That's... The stench begins to permeate your nostrils. I think fighting against stench is a great reason to use my inspiration. Do you want to give, like, the stench, Deebo? Not particularly, no. I consider myself a relatively clean person, you know? Well, you know, half person. You said constitution saving throw. I'm trying to find that on here so I know what I'm doing. Okay. I'm at 20, 22. Excellent. You definitely passed. You definitely passed. Do I like purge some of this tension away? I'm kidding. You're definitely more like, no! Awesome. Awesome. And then I'll use Bless. Huge. Um. Just about does Bless do. So we get to add a d4 on attack and saves? Mm-hmm. Nice. Okay. That's right. I remember that. Okay. We used it before. And then I'll go ahead and go in my trusty Pretty's Flame. Excellent. Excellent bonus action there. And that'll be it. Great. You got assaulted with stench. In fact, you'll have to make the same check of the third return. You'll be blessed for it. You will be blessed for it. Okay, so I do that, and then it's plus a d4 you sold? Yes. So 10 plus a single d4, and then plus your con modifier here. Three. Ten plus three. 13, I don't have a modifier on my custom shoes. - That's enough. You also are able to overcome the stench. You don't let it get to you.

  • Cool. I'm going to do my old trusty back the fuck up move first off and I'm just going to move to like back here kind of like in the drug I see you mean bonus action disengage yeah yeah disengage yeah because that's you're the only one who can do that as a bonus action so unless you every time you want to move away without getting an attack of opportunity you'll have to bonus action disengage but typically you have that action economy available yeah

Yeah, because I've done that a couple times, yeah. So I gotta get the fuck out of there. So I'm gonna do that and then... Short bow. There you go. Am I still... Does the bless thing still work on this? Yeah. I wasn't sure if that was a one-time thing. No, because as long as you're here, they'll concentrate on it. So that was 16, and then plus the d4 makes it 20. Definitely is. Extra D4 on the damage tier? No. Okay, 4. Unfortunately, no. That would make it very hard. Just 4. People would be yelling at you when you don't cast it. Yeah, it was just a 4. Excellent, excellent, excellent. So let's do something to it, hopefully. Back to Jables, who makes me a constitution saving throw. Starting his turn, close to this smelly gas. Oh no, I'm gonna fail it. You're gonna fail it? Yeah. Uh, that's a six. You are unfortunately poisoned. Oh, that's fine. I could be poisoned. Disadvantage on abilities. Attack roll. Destroy. Until the start of your next turn. Until the start of my next turn? Yep. What does poison do? You just have disadvantage on attacks and ability turns. Oh, okay. I'm still gonna attack this ass. You can definitely. You can definitely. Piss me off. So that's going to be not enough, but it's going to be a 10. Unfortunately, that won't hit. Spit on him. Well, there you go. That takes it to my boy, the guest number one, Mr. Gustav Durst, who's going to take his claw attack. Hopefully it's a better attack than it was previously. I'm hoping not. I got moves like Neo. 13. Does not hit 14. Damn. Damn, he's not Robert. That leads to Elizabeth Durst. Third place is going away. No, keep it, keep it, keep it, keep it, keep it. You see what I'm doing? Keep it. That also does not hit. But that's her turn, which takes it back to Irindel after two unfortunate turns. As you take a peek. Hey, it's all fresh air, you know? That Nat 20 is holding true. I'm just going to swing fences at Mr. Dursty over here, who keeps swinging at me. So Sacred Flame for my magic action. That's a deck saving throw. 13. Does one to get. Two. It's one d8 radiant rolled two.

  • Roll a two?

I'm gonna throw that flame. Oh, that... Huh? Excellent, excellent. Okay. That's gonna be with disadvantage. Yeah, okay. But I get my d4, right? Do I roll a d4 on both rolls or do I roll it once and then apply it to whichever is the winning roll? Can't roll worse than this. A nat 1? Yeah. You could technically roll two nat 1s. I'm sorry. I did technically roll two nat 1s. Really? Because this is a 1 and this is a 1. Oh. So I don't feel like it's fair for me to re-roll anything. Roll me a d100. You throw in your flame? Yeah. Is that an action or a bonus action to throw in? A second flame is an action. A second flame is an action. That's a good point. It's a magic action, so I can't do it. You can't throw it at your own feet then. So I can't do it. That's what I was looking at. You are genetically correct. Thank you Travis. Okay. Crisis averted. You have a bonus action available though. You know what? I'm going to forgo my bonus action as a payment for messing that up. And call it good. Is that fair DM? Happy little accident. Excellent, excellent. I got nothing else to do. I'm out of the way and it's worked for me and I'm still too squishy to want to be anywhere close. I feel like that's going to be like, that should be the case. So I'll just roll that real quick. Nice. Nice, 22. I think you'll also get sneak attack against this guy because he's up. Oh. That's true, yeah. They're pretty good. Yeah, so it's an extra D6. Oh, it says if I have advantage in all the worlds. Oh yeah, because I hit it last time. Exactly. Those are so good for you. Alright, so... So what does that mean? I already rolled my attack to her, my hit, so I know I hit him. Did you roll with a bench? It's good to roll two jams. Yeah, you know, I did. Okay, yeah. So, roll a second one. The second one's a 10, but the first one was a 22. Well, you get a D4 plus on that, too. Oh, yeah, that's right. No, you definitely get it. I forget about that shit every time. It's like 1D6 plus 2, so it'll be 2D6 plus 2.

  • One and three, so one and three plus two. Is that how I would do it? - Yes. - Okay, so four plus two is six.
  • Six, excellent, excellent. Y'all are chipping away at this dude. He's not playing though.
  • I don't see any reason to move, so yeah, I'm also just, I'm just gonna leave it at that. I don't have anything else I can do. - Jables, come.

Do I have to do another concept? You do. You do, actually. We're gonna be dog shit. It's gonna be a 10. That is just enough. Nice. I'm swinging on him. That's hilarious. I'm swinging on him. This is less dog shit. It's gonna be a 19. That is? With my silvered short sword. What benefits does it gain against undead? I don't know. I just wrote down one of these things. If nothing, it's fine. This one lists against shapeshifted opponents. This is an old one, but it says it deals 1d4 extra damage to undead. That sounds right. That was for 5e. The D6 regular damage though, right? So you're saying plus one D4? That'll be... terrible. That'll be, uh, three, it'll be five DM-oosh. Five DM-oosh? I mean, it's more than... no DM-oosh. But it's also gonna get smitten. Okay. Smit. I'm going to assume they are undead. Yes. Safe assumption. Oh, yes. Oh, yes. I'm gonna figure out if I bust out and I'll fire you, D-A. There it is. Hell yeah, two of them maxed out. 18 radio demos. You're good, you're good. That's a big smite. Yeah, it was my last spell slot, so I'm happy that it wasn't my... Right. Oh, a flop. I'm trying to resist the stench. It just kept coming for you. It's painful. Travis did a lot of damage to the misses over there. The smite 18 radiant. her. Did you ask? No, I did not. So it'd be them, right? You know, it's the only... It's... I'm not gonna, you know, respect their, uh... Yeah. No, they're getting assumed. What's the start to children? Yeah. It's not okay. We're doing some crazy shit down in this fucking here dungeon. That's your turn. Yeah, let's just stand. Yeah, I like it. That's right. That's right. Every single time you say you spit on them, that is essentially the player's turn. That's a good point. So, Mr. Goosestomp is going to continue his unsuccessful onslaught of attacks. 12 doesn't hit. He's got 14. Come at the mundo. He's got that druid AC. That takes it to Miss Gustav, who's going to try to hit you with a 19. Just barely. Just barely. Okay. I'm going to deal 10 slashing damage to you and make you a constitution saving throw. Dog shit. Nine. Can't constitution save for my life. You are paralyzed. Until the end of your next term. Until the end of my next term? Mm-hmm. Okay. You're done. Okay. She's bloodied. He's bloodied. He's dusty. Not yet. Oh, never mind. She's dusty. Think I sacred flame her I - He'd be in range, right? Yes, he's gonna be. Then I... Does she have like disadvantage because she's an undead? I don't believe so. It doesn't list it. It'd be cool, but I don't think so. No, that would be cool. That would make sense too. It gets no benefit from cover for the saving throw. Yeah. I will go ahead and use Healing Word on my boy Jables. That's an eight. Yes. Sorry, was it my turn? Sorry. All right. Let's see. Yeah, still on the same position, same situation. Yeah, same thing for me. Do get it out, yeah. Yeah, I'm just going to do my short bone, and I'm going to remember that I had the d4 this time. So it's 12 plus 2, so 14. Did it? Did it? Cool. Want to leave in Brownsburg? Want to leave? Yes. Excellent. I guess this, that is just enough to have him also be Dusty. If that is your turn, that takes it back to Jables, who is paralyzed. And that takes it back to Mr. Goose Doctors. As I become unparalyzed, I spit on them. 23 to hit you with his claw attack. Good lord. That hits. He's going to also be dealing 10 slashing damage to you. and then constitution saving from. Constitution throws 17, no, 14, 14, sorry. Okay. And 10 damage is what I take. I start by responding to that second attach by spitting blood at her. Because, fuck that bitch. And then I go ahead and do Sacred Flame again. On the one by you. Go ahead and produce flame. Get that shit ready. Hizer. Okay, back to you again. I'm going to do my usual. I'm just going to keep shooting at this motherfucker. Excellent. Until I can get him to go down, as long as he's keeping him worried. Would it still be a sneak attack if he's not actively attacking me? Yes. Yeah, I forget what that adds. Let me... Yeah, it's an extra D6. Okay. Yep. And I do have advantage because I did it last time. Okay, cool. I have advantage, so I roll twice, right? Mm-hmm. Take the highest. Nice. That helps a lot. So 18. That definitely hits. 19. And then I get one extra d6 when the sneak is back? Yes. So 2d6 plus 2. So 4 and 4 plus 2. That's 10 total. 10 total. Very nice. Very nice. That is a secret. Thank you for some of the terrible roles earlier. If that is your turn, it takes it back to Jables. Go after Kong, Sam. You passed the last one, right? Yeah. No. You're welcome. Okay. I like what's been happening. That is a 15 to hit. That does hit. Silver sword, I will do, nice, maxed out, 10 damage. 10 damage with this silver sword, excellent. Another big fucking hit. Hell yeah. Hell yeah. Nice. All right, is that your turn? We're getting fired up on this one. Guidance isn't a bonus action, it's an action. It is definitely an action. Actually, isn't it a reaction? No. I don't think it was a reaction, I think it's just an action. Um...

  • As soon as we air, and sit down soon.

Google things on the robot. No, that's an action. Uh, so... Okay, you're keeping to that motif. I appreciate the consistency. I have to run to my boy again. So are you bloodied here or down? Yeah, oh yeah. Thank you. Didn't dodge that one. Yeah. At least you passed the concept. That's cool. I'm just spitting. All right, that takes it back to Gustav. Not hideous, though, and that takes it back to... He's standing right there and keeps just missing. Can only hit me once, you know? 19 against you. Yeah, barely. Okay, so she's going to be able to deal that 10 slashing. Woody. Come save. I passed it last time. This is not for the stitch. I know. I know. I know. I'm sorry. Too high. I have to answer it genuinely. I'm going to pass it. It's going to be fine. 16. Good, good, good. It's a 10 or better. I figured. I'm sure you've done that. This is funny. What is her turn collectively? Which, what are you at? Me? Actually, no, don't answer. You're bloody, right? I'm bloody. Okay. We're doing the metagame. Yeah, she's bloody, right? They're both dusty. Everyone involved here is bloody. Except for Gray. Yes. I've been staying out of those. He's decided to be Gray, not Red. Yes. I got the flame in my hand so I'm gonna throw that bitch. You can't with disadvantage. Which one are you throwing it at? The close one or the far one? If you're throwing it at the far one, it's not with disadvantage. I'm throwing it at the far one. Same one I attacked last time. Which is the one in front of Jables over there. So you're just letting Ray deal with the one that's trying to kill you right now. Yeah, because as long as it's focused on me, he gets to hit it harder. And, you know, it's only hit me once, so I'm not that afraid of it. It's been rolling with advantage against you now that you're talking shit. It's been working out so far. 1921. Did it hit? Yeah. Definitely. And then it's 1d8. That is fire damage. Man can dream. I know. It's already in my hand, you know, I gotta throw it. Yeah, it's flame damage. Two. Two damage! This is a big hit. More than nothing. She's still kicking though, unfortunately. I'm gonna go ahead and healing word my boy Jables over there. For eight. You're not bloody! He's been back and forth across the day. My combination is working out very well with this, like, you guys. My gloves are stained. Back and forth with me just out of the back, just kind of like... I'm out of spell slots, so... Before I do my turn, I cough up more blood. Great! Like, yeah, like teacher, in Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood style. Just... 19 plus 4. Definitely hits. Definitely. This is, yet again, a sneak attack. Yes. So it is seven plus two. It is nine. Nine to that one? Yep. Nine to Mr. Reverse Center. Always my favorite when you can be sneaky from that far away just because they're a little bit focused. How am I getting damaged? Somehow my back really hurts. How am I taking damage? No! That is going to be... That was difficult for me to do that simple math right there. That's gonna be just enough to kill Mr. Gustav as he slumps his smelly corpse hitting the ground. Lord. I'm surprised it worked. It did. It did. I think I might stick to long range as like my main thing. That's your turn. Yeah, I'm going to stop there. I don't have any reason to move forward because I believe I can still see everybody else. Jables. I'm swinging. Might be missing. It's an 11. That misses. I had a feeling. Spittin'. I'm going to position so that my friends can see her. And all of her spit-blooded glory. I want you to be right between the arrow and the gas. I've learned lessons between the arrows and their targets. Hey, we did pretty good on that one shot I did. Hey, I had faith. Because I went right between the legs and got them in the nuts that one shot. I had faith, 100%. I remember that specifically. Oh, yeah. There was a lot of leg spreading in that one moment. Okay. I said go wider. That was literally verbatim. In there. Make sure. Gassed, whatever it is. Gassed, yes. She is going to miss your dice tray. No. And that is going to be Iridel. That's her dusty ass turn. She's not happy with that. She's going to have to roll a dex save. The sacred flame is coming her way. 13 just saves. It's it hoots. Eight. Eight radiant. Eight radiant. That should be... That's not... Pretty close. That's not enough. That man was a bitching person to her. Actually, wait. Well, you know. Mental math. Well, yeah, because I'm just writing the numbers thanks to each other until it gets to be too big of a number for me. If they didn't have the same health, then it's just, I was like, damn, she had more health than him. I was like, that's crazy. Were you doing the math? I try not to. I mean, she got hit for 18 early on, right? 18 right in. That was enough to make her dusty, so I guess you could technically from that. Good job, guys. You failed these two, guys. Nice. Us? Yeah. You killed him. You just put him down right here, right now. Oh, and I thought we were the upright, morally just owners of the house. No, that was me being egregious about these two people that you just put down. But you are now, you were the owners before, but you are now very much the owners, which would leave you in this room. Um... I assume you guys would go to open the footlocker as you had planned before. Yeah, we planned to do that. It did have my attention. It did. So you would find multiple things in this footlocker. Be ready to write this down. You would find one cloak of protection. Very important. You would find a small wooden coffer as well, unlocked. Containing four potions of healing, regular ones. Jane shirt. - That's cute. Flask of Alchemist's Fire. A bullseye lantern. A set of thieves tools. Spellbook, which has a number of spells, but I'll tell you guys these items a few times before we get into the spells in the spellbook. I think there's one, only one that I missed. The last one? Uh, no, it was somewhere in the middle. So, wooden coffer, four potions of healing, chain shirt, mess kit, alchemist's fire, old eye lantern, thieves tools, and then a spellbook. Okay. Which none of you guys can utilize wizard spells anyway, so. But I'll still tell you exactly what's in the spell book. I'm pretty sure I already have a set of thieves tools. I wanted to make sure. You never have too many, right? Yeah. So this spell book would contain disguise, so identify, mage armor. Magic Missile. Protection from evil and good as its level 1 spells. Spells, you would have dark vision, cold person, invisibility, and magic weapon. Sorry, can you do the LTs again? Dark vision, cold person, invisibility. Do we know the rough value of this spellbook given the spells in it? Right, right. That's what I'm saying. So we'd have to find somebody and see what they're willing to pay for. We can't just kind of gauge roughly how many gelled. For this one, though. Other items, like all the previous items, you could quantify those into gold easily. They had a lot of shit. You'll probably be able to kind of tell contextually that they likely had been looting these items from other adventurers. The people that they had lured into this dungeon and murdered. Yes. You get all the goop from this room. You goop this room entirely. Should we put the cloak of protection on someone? The plus one AC is probably pretty nice to have. It's huge. You wouldn't need to do it too much, which is over a long rest, unfortunately. Well, we probably should do a long rest anyway. I'm out of spell. I'm out of everything. Would you try a long rest in this room? Um... With a bed room. We all just climb up in there. Back to the pile. Have we finished exploring the room? Is there anything else that we can kind of perceive, things, drawers that we can check? So, in this room was the wardrobe. When you look in the wardrobe, which I assume you will, you'll find old robes, more candlesticks. There's actually also that open crate you see in the corner containing a lot of torches. And there's also a leather sack with a lot of candles. So if you wanted any of those items in particular, you can help yourself. But other than that, The two tiny little hideaways of these guests were kind of lurking in as they hopped out. Tried to kill you. Did Miss Owner of the House in her crypt bedroom have pretty robes that Eridel might find some sentimental attachment to due to the design work or... color or material used. You'll find that these in particular are lacking any kind of fashion or taste. Like, they're all black. They're all very worn. I consider setting the wardrobe on fire and think better against it. Do we want a long rest in here? Do we want to, is there another place we would feel more comfortable? Than the room where we just murdered the really smelly old inhabitants? I mean, we can move the smell out. You wouldn't know that the room is clear. I'm cool with it. I think it makes sense. I'm cool with it. We could always push the dresser in front of the doorway or something. Yeah, for extra security. I'm not against that like we did with the thing before, although I'm not sure. It'll at least make noise and slow them down awake as well. Yeah, that's my thought. Okay. You're able to do just that. Are you guys taking watch or who's taking the first watch in this little bit of sleeping? I'll take the first watch. I've been unharmed for a lot of the time. I've just been Roll me the D-100 for this first four hours. It's your two buzz. I'm assuming both of you guys are attempting to sleep at this time. Yeah. Yeah, I guess I'll just roll it in virtual. So you can use these if you want. I also have a golf ball. Actually, yeah, I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll do it. - I see a 50 and a four.

  • 54? The first four hours go without incident. Are you staying up for the next four hours or are you waking up your buddies?
  • Good question. For long rest, we just have to do non-strenuous stuff for the eight hours, right? I mean, you can wake someone up if you want to sleep. It's four hours.

Yeah, because I stayed awake and I didn't do anything during the short rest. So, yeah, I'll go ahead and I'll wake somebody up, too. I'll wake Jables up and then rest for the other day. I don't have anything to recover necessarily, but just for the sake of lore-wise, taking some sleep is a good idea. You let Iredel get the full eight hours of sleep, so Jabil's making the next B100 roll. I do have some stuff I might want to do, Durin. Some non-strenuous, but it's going to be a 20. That would still be enough to have this... ...hours happened with that incident. Are you wanting to attune to the cloak of protection? Uh, well, I was trying to... Who did want to attune to that? I mean, one person would, if y'all want to do that, but they specify. I assume it would be one of us, since we're the ones that get hit the most, right? Yeah, definitely one of the guys who are... I mean, I'm squishy, but I stay awake. Right. Definitely one of you guys who are more likely to be up close to it. Yeah, I'm cool with either of us. I'm not, uh... No, I wouldn't... What's your AC? Mine's 14. Because mine will stay at 18. There's not much I can do aside from paying items. Mine grows over time, right? As I... Yeah, Dex, which I want to because at least one of the cantrips and I think one of the later ones are both Dex saves. Well, that's just against your DC, which has nothing to do with your DEX. It'll be whatever your spellcasting modifier is. So you want to get your wisdom higher if you want your saves to be higher. Okay. And that'll make your attacks more likely to hit you several different ways. I mean, I'm cool either way. Yeah, I'm cool. I think you're the one that walks in the room the first most of the time, you know? I mean, fair. Do you use a shield? Me? No. Oh, I do have a shield. I have a shield. Leather, light armor, and a shield. An adventurer's cloak. 13. 13. Okay, way on. So when I hit long rest on here, it has two things, two long rest rules, 5E and 5.5E. 5.5E. Okay, so recover all hit dice. Yes. Do I have to do anything special to a Tundra? Or do I just basically have to wear it throughout the long rest? The thing I wanted to do though is I have those 12 silver knives on me. Is there anything around the room that I could see that I could maybe make my homie Gray some silver arrows while I'm-- Out of like dinner knives? I've got these dinner knives. There's some wood around the room. If I need feathers, I'm going to cut them a pillow, bro. And I've got, I assume I've got rope. I don't know, I mean, if not... Oh, we have bolts, right? You could maybe use the stick from the torches for the arrow shafts. Oh my god, yeah, there are torches. Yeah, I could just snap some of those. Yeah, and I've only got 12 of these, you know, so I've only got so many attempts. Also... I figured it might be non-strenuous. Also happy to give up whatever bolts are on my... Oh yeah, I haven't used the crossbow very much, but that's just because right now I've got a... I just wanted to ask if I could, if I could attempt to make some. I'm contemplating. Give me two sleight of hand checks. Can I give myself guidance? Yes. That first one's gonna be a nine. Second one's gonna be a 14. And I had 12 silver knives total to start with. So as you go to start like making these very crude, um... Very crude? Um, silvered arrows, um... It's like more like an improvised silver arrow. Roll me... Well,

  • Thank you for the tower.

Eleven. Eleven? A D-fucking-twelve. You're able to make... You're able to successfully, out of the twelve actual pieces you have, you're only able to make four. Four? You do make him four silver, improvised silver arrows. And I no longer have the knives. I assume. You took all the knives to make the four. They have a silver version of the bolt and the thing So would that be, yeah, so you just want to find the bolts? And there should be a check mark that you can add to modify it. What are they called exactly? What was made? Like improvised silvered arrows, which aren't a real million arrows. It's not an actual item. He just like threw together a MacGyver kitchen knife silver arrow. We Jack Blacked it. Just do maybe an arrow and then add a note to it maybe instead. There should be a check mark to modify it. So when you click on it. Because my whole plan was for the four hours I wanted to make those arrows while thinking up The song I was going to make. Oh, it's in the crossbow. You can list that you have four silvered for the next day. I appreciate the commitment. Probably just the custom one's the easiest one. Yeah, yeah, I'm just doing the custom. Rest, you wake up. You said there's four of them? Yes. You're rested. You're not like super well rested because like the room's kind of dirty and it's kind of smelly, but you know, there's a bed which y'all definitely utilized. I assume you would start backtracking. Yeah. I mean, yeah, there's another way to go, right? Is there, there's no secret doors in that room. Those walls that have the caved in spots, do they... They were not like tunnels. They were just like little hobbles that they did. Okay. I accept this. Would you go back to the room with Crystal Lord or would you continue back down the tunnel? Something's driving me to that Crystal Lord. It's our house. It's our Lord. Right. Yeah, we're going to have to... Because we were hesitant before. We're going to go up through the trapdoor. I'm going to go ahead and touch it because I feel like if it's anything, it's, yeah, if it's anything, it's necrotic. I'll know right away and I have resistance to that. So I'm just going to kind of touch, poke it. Just a gentle, you know. Come hither. As you touch the crystal orb specifically, nothing happens. It is just a crystal orb. So, we could, we could, we could, like, Indiana Jones this thing. Right, the exits are right there. Well, and there's skulls and stuff. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, swap, swapy, yeah. You want to toss me a skull? I'll grab you a skull. Which, is there a skull? I want to eyeball a skull that looks like it weighs about the same as this crystal. Sure, like there's skeletons everywhere. Well yeah, but which one, you know, you know. Roughly the same size, weight, and mass. That's my goal. I don't know if you need to check it. You'd have to find one that's very close. Okay, that's the first one. I'm going to say as all this is going on, I'm walking up towards that other, the special exit up here, and I'm At least opening the way. I'm in that doorway or over that direction. Okay. As casually ready to run as Gray can be. Well, also, I'm not interested. I'm just like, okay, we've killed all the shit. This is next. I'm standing right next to you. I don't know which one of us is doing the swap. A little coordination, you know? Since you said, you know, You do have the necrotic resistance. Yeah, I'm already holding it. I figure I'll pick it up, but that's what I was saying. Toss it to me. I could just with my slightly faster than normal reflexes that I get from being a half a vampire. Great. I like that. I like that. How great is the race? That's how I dodged all those gas hits. That was my divine protection, you know? The wanderer was looking out for me today. Someone was. My luck was Thank you. Actually pick up the orb fully in your hand. Five shadows are going to form around you and the statue and they're going to attack you. We're all going to roll initiative. But the shadows are going to get a single attack. Actually, yeah. They're going to get a single attack. So we're back in initiative. Six. I'm gonna prepare myself for the battle. Yes, yes, yes. This is... I wonder if y'all are gonna touch that fucking door. You gotta, it's, you know, it's college. Yeah, you do have to, though, you do. Those are bad news. So they touch the orb, and now they're getting attacked. Yeah, I heard that. Yes, yes. I heard shadows. Are we just at shadows for now? That's all we've heard? They are shadows. They're like shadowy spectral beings. Oh, okay. So voila. It's going to be. Those silver arrows are going to come in handy. Oh, yeah. I'm going to hope a lot that I don't miss. I also hope that you don't miss. For y'all's sake. I have not, but I definitely will take one. Kind of in the fuck box as well, Jables. You specified you were standing right next to him. Thank you, thank you. Couldn't my boy do it alone? What'd you say? Couldn't my boy do it alone? No, no, he's gonna be grateful that you're there with him after this onslaught of a text. And you're lucky that it doesn't specify that each get an attack. They just attack, so we're not going to have them each take an attack against Iridel. I think that would result in his immediate death. You know what I am going to do, though? I'm going to look for more gold. Y'all have been navigating this fairly difficult combat well though. I'm interested to see how you fare against these shadows. Yeah. So far the strategy of me just staying back and lobbing arrows has been working. I've been getting good enough hits, or at least having the initiative and advantage and all that every time because of it being a sneak attack because they're always fighting everybody else. There you go. I think it's Jabba's turn to green this. He'll get to do that when he gets back in. Until I level up a little bit more and get some more health and armor. But in any case, I'm liking the idea since I was wanting to do arcane tricks or stuff for illusion and shit anyway. I was wanting to use that as like a way to hide more and get further away and... all that kind of thing anyway. That will be a good strat in some of the battles that you'll face. I wrote my 14. 14, excellent. Throw the plate away. Take a hit from my pen. And then roll. Excellent. Excellent. Sounds like a plan. Well, it is your green's job. Yep. Anyone that tickles your fancy. I did roll a six before I went outside, but I don't know if you want to count that or not. Would it be a cumulative six even with your initiative? Damn. Damn six. What did you say? Bro. I had to try, you know? I also had to be honest about it. Someone's got to go last. Someone's got to go last. I'm grateful you were honest. That's integrity, right?

  • By the way, I did sing their song about my silvery knife making.
  • I'm feeling very inspired.
  • When we woke up.
  • I like that. What's your dexterity, Greg? - What? - 14, right? No, it's like 16, right? - 15. - 15, so you're getting there.
  • I think, is that including-- - Thinking about the song inspired me.
  • Yeah, just know your overall stat.
  • Okay, the plus two is if I'm rolling on that button. - Is it your hit? Or no. We'll do the circle. The black cherry soda somehow makes me drink more of the root beer.

The root beer is very good though, thank you. This brand is really good. It is. Take it to one of these shadows at the very top of the route. In fact, the shadows roll well for their initial-- I'm gonna take a draining swipe attack against you. Here I go. Blaine ain't got nothing on me. We're also going to take their two attacks against you here, Adele. Okay. So, 19? Yeah, 19 hits. There you go. He's gonna hit you with one of your draining swipes. Sofary bar. Get the fuck out of here. You're gonna be hit by five necrotic damage. And roll me a d4. Okay, I have necrotic resistance as well, so it's half, right? There you go, yeah. How does that shake out? Two? Is it truncate or is it round? I did three last time, so go ahead and do three this time. Okay. And then what am I rolling again? D4? Yeah, roll me a D4. What is that? Two. Two? Your strength score is reduced by two. How do I modify that? Other modifier, minus two. And then I take how much damage? Three? Yes. Three to cry. Those are going to be both of your turns, and that takes it to Jables. Well, I think I'm going to hold on to that silver story as I start to wind up. Luck points are long rests, right? Or is it every day? Is Lucky long rest? Yes. Okay. For some reason they didn't have that on there. Oh yeah, there it is. It's written right there. So I'm going to use my luck point then. One of them. Who am I? Who am I? Which of these have already gone? Everyone. The three by him, basically. Yeah, so it was these three that just took all of their turns. All three of those went for him? Pretty sure it did. I think there's one more in there. Do you want this, Travis? Yeah, I'll rip it. Do I work point do that or do I other stuff right now? I don't want to get hit. We're doing some ho shit right now. That's a bonus action anyway. I'm not going to use my look for it. I'm just going to swing it out. Okay. Hit me with the roll. Are you using the silver sword? Silver sword, yes. That's going to miss. That was a two, so it's going to be a four. Damn. Thank God it wasn't a one. Thank you. For my bonus action, I'm going to Shield of Faith myself. Okay. Good spell. Good spell. It's your turn that takes it to Mr. Gray. Spitting on this guy. I expect nothing less. That's gonna be in the drop-down. Alright. Well, I'm guessing I'm able to sneak attack because none of them are paying any attention to me.

  • Oh, their eyes are all on Gary now. You can see that.

He has the orb of fire.

  • Yeah, yeah, so that's all. I'm just gonna take, I guess, whichever one is for this back, and I'm gonna start shooting at it. - Okay. - I'm seeing what's happening, and I'm like, well, all right, I guess we're fighting again.
  • Like the damage?
  • Yeah. - Are you trying out one of those silver arrows, or? Oh yeah, that's a good call. Yeah. Would be a good time. Yeah.

They're in the fuck box right now. Yeah, so I'm going to use one of the silvered arrows and I'm going to shoot my short bow. It says with advantage, that means I roll twice, right? Yes. So let's see. 17. 17. Medently it's. Cash on the line. Okay. Oh, it would have been higher if I had managed to include my d4, which I didn't, but... So, yeah, I just added a 1. No, and then it's the sneak attack, so it's 2, right? And what does the silver do? Is it another d4? Yeah, another d4. So, 6 plus 2 plus a d4.

  • Nice, nice. Two other guys.
  • Yeah, I picked this one in the back specifically just because that was one of the Four of those arrows, right? Yes. That means I'm down to three of my quiver. I'm going to make a note of that just to figure I should. Something I might be thinking about trying to retrieve. That's what actually gets out of the line.

You'll come back. you I think. Yeah, I don't see any reason to move from where I am. So yeah, I'll just do that for now. And yeah, we'll just leave it there. That's all my comments, but as far as just the dead fans standing in the back just shooting arrows, that's the rest of the fights happening, just as Greg would do. But it takes it to the two remaining shadows in their group, and they're going to take each of their attacks against your dog. Is that it? I think Grace's little man-of-hatch is rolling against me. That is the same. That'll be half, which is quarter. Yeah. Yeah. So each of these swipes, it'll be, we determined it's three, right? It'll be a total of six damage. Okay. Which is already half. One of them gets half-half, right? Yeah, so it'd be... Yeah, so, yeah. We're going to say it's one. So you're going to take what? Four. And then roll me 2d4. I'm going to stay with my D4 right now. Strength score is decreased by five. Okay. What is it? What is it? It's one. You're down to one? Yeah. Carry on. I'm a pretty weak friend now. I believe it. Is it my turn now? It is. I know that you mentioned that. It is. I feebly call upon the gods to bless my friends and myself. We are now blessed. Does Bless Mount use one of my spell slots? It does. You have a spell scroll as well that says. Okay, okay. That's why I didn't auto-mark it. But I want to use my ability. And then... So I'll go ahead and produce the flame. And I'll draw the orb closer into my chest. Nestled in my bosom. Because clearly it's valuable if six things showed up and just started swinging at my face. Five, but... Okay. Just five. Five. That's your turn. That takes it back to the single shadow. Where is my d4? There it is. Your strength score is really at one already. Was it not that high? Was it already your dumb stat? It was already my dumb stat. It already decreased it by seven. Is this mask gonna do it? Is it gonna continue to attack you? Let's see. It's gonna actually change targets. It's gonna attack at the same time as you were attacking. Oh. Unfortunately, net 20. I had a feeling when you said, oh. Shit. Wait, can't I use luck to make him disadvantage from his attack on me? If the condition is that if they roll a 20 that you can give a disadvantage, how would you know that advance? Well, You have to say like, when you give yourself the luck point, you have to declare before you roll it. When you give yourself the advantage. Yeah, my issue with this is the roll. Yeah, I'm going to attack Jables and then rolls it. Yes. Yeah. Yes. I was quick on the roll. Pretty much said it within a couple seconds. Yeah, you did. You did. It was pretty quick. But I will. I will. God damn. I'll try to be faster. I'll do my danger. I will. I'm a warrior. Which passes its turn, which takes it to the two other shadows, the ones in that line. So this one right here that's closest to you, Jables, is going to take its attack against you. And this one right here is going to take its attack against your doll. James J. Wilson's first. This one... Oh. Oh, two sixes. So neither of those attacks are gonna hit. Which takes it to you, James. I'm gonna huff and I'm gonna puff and... Is Iridale bloody? No. So, make me a perception check. Oh, because, well... Make me a perception check. How did you look at Iridale? It's not that good. It's not that good. It's a five. A five? It's a five. I'm distracted. She. I miss gender in Eridon. Oh, sorry. It's funny because my characters are always men in the ending as well. It's just hilarious. Gender bending is fun, you know. It is. It's fancy. Am I? - Do you have a faith on one person? - Isn't it?

  • It's a concentration.
  • Okay, yes. - That's what I thought. I knew Derek had thrown it pretty loosely around, but I just never looked at it before.
  • There are some of them that aren't concentration. Like there's one that isn't, that Claire is getting.
  • Okay, okay.
  • It's called something else, and it just gives you a plus two. - That's cool.
  • How it is for now. I might do more overall. I'm gonna keep the Smite in my pocket. Thank you. I'll swing first. I'm gonna swing on the homie that got hit with the silvered arrow.

Yeah, the one that's like right next to you trying to hit you as well. Yeah. Yep, yep, yep, yep. Makes sense. Yeah, that hits. 21. 21 definitely hits. Do I smite him? Thinking I smite him. When would one use a ritual? Like out of combat? They're usually done without spell slots, but it takes you 10 minutes casting time instead of instead. If it says it uses spell slots, then it uses spell slots. Well, you can oftentimes not ritual cast, but which one are you looking at? I'm just looking to find familiar. So you can cast that. Out of combat without using spell slots as well. Or during combat. And is that persistent? Like once I've done that, I have that familiar period? Yes. And I can't, but if I use find familiar again, it would replace that familiar? Yes. Okay. Yes. Very good spell. Yeah, I'll smite him. Okay. So that'll be the six from my sword, my silvered short sword. Yep. Yep. And then you get additional D8s as well because of his undead status. I was hoping he was undead. Yeah, I know. 13 radiant. That is going to be enough to murder his ass. He explodes. The radiant seems particularly effective. And that will be my paladin's might that can do once a long rest. You know what I'm doing. Is that your turn? It is my turn. Alright, that takes it to Gray. And also make me a perception check, as you look upon your comrade, Iridel, upon her taking multiple hits from these shadows. Twelve. Oh. So it's funny that you were able to perceive a little bit better when you're standing further away from Jables. As a ranged person should. I was blinded by the, you know... You were at it. You can't see the forest from the trees. You're going to notice that she's not bloody, I don't think. But all the colors drain from her face, and she looks like her vitality has been seriously drained. She looks like knocking on death's fucking door. But not bloody. I'm a Oh, that one got killed. Yeah, smoted. I will just work my way forward and shoot yet another silver arrow. Yeah, a carpet-looking one. And that's Sneak attack, so with advantage, so roll twice. Yep, yep. 22, I think, and I'll need to roll twice. I'll just leave it. It's fine. So, and then it's also... Big attacks of extra six and two again. Four and three, seven plus two, nine. And it's the silver thing, so whatever was added because of that. Plus a D4 as well. Plus a D4. What did I just say was that number? Nine. So nine plus a D4. Plus three, 12. 12. 12 on the carpet. - Actually just enough to kill that one as well.

  • Nice.
  • I'm a bad wiener.
  • There's three left?
  • Yes.
  • I'm definitely gonna attempt to retrieve these arrows from these things' corpses.
  • That's a good move. That's a very good move. Is that your turn?
  • Yeah, I'm gonna leave it there. I know what I'm gonna try next if it's not dead already.
  • Okay. That takes it to the final two. One is going to take its attack against Jables and the other one's gonna take its attack against you or Adele.

It's on you, whatever you want. Finish this. Or no. I'd be doing the same. No, it's not gonna hit you, Jables. I'm going to pull out the coffee dice. Coffee dice are failing me. I'm going to do the coffee dice. The coffee dice are still on my side, you know? Nothing you can do about it. You leave those things out of it. You leave the coffee dice out of it. That is going to take a D, Mirabelle. I like the one with the coffee and the D20 as well. I've got a lot of brown dice. Can I feel like I can use the orb for anything in this fight? Can I draw from it? Does it have a life essence that I can pull from? It's not a magical orb, it's just smokey quartz. They care so much about it. Okay. Okay. I'll use my fire because it's already in my hand. disadvantage because they're all pretty much right up in your-- And... But it's not here. So I'm gonna have to keep neo-ing with some flame in my hand. I'll use produce flame again. Okay. That'll be my turn. Produce flame. That would have taken it to carpet, who's dead, which takes it to the other guys, who's gonna take their attack again. So let's see. 13? Does not hit. I mean, I like you. The wanderer sees me. That's my turn? It is. I thought you were trying to do things for me. I mean, next turn. Three of them left, huh? There are three of them left. Hmm. Hmm. Trying to remember who's been hit the most. Who's been hit the least. We'll swing at this guy closest to me, I guess. ...the lock point when I swing at him. Being 18 to hit. That hits. That definitely hits. I assume you're doing the brown guy. This is closest guy to me. Yeah. I'll use my last spell slot to swing. I think I wait. I think I wait. That'll be seven silver sword Dimash. Excellent. He is... I don't know if a shadow can be bloody, but this one is. It's kind of starting to dissipate a little. Exactly. We need a corporeal form that dates it to you, Greg. I'm shooting. Here's my bird. I have two more of these arrows, so I'll do this again. And it is once again, 14 6 plus 2, 8 plus whatever for being solar. Not yet. So 9? 9. Nice, that one is also beginning to shift a little bit. Is that your turn? Yep, well actually, I'm gonna start moving a little bit. I'm gonna move myself a little bit more because if that one dies I need to be starting to get closer to the other side to hit the others. Excellent. So that's going to be it after a little bit. That takes it to the other two that are going to spread their attacks as they did before. One to Jables. And the other one to Iridel. She's not going to hit. It's going to be another 12. Call me Muhammad Ali. Fucking float like a butterfly. Stick like a beast. The rules are very unfortunate. I don't know what that means. Um, here we go. Um, alright. I'm gonna try the Sacred Flame. It's a dex save. So it does have... Is that a pass? There's no glancing blow. Yeah, I think it passes with that. Okay. Fairly a pass. So that would be... That's an eight for the roll of radiant damage. I don't believe they take damage... Because that's a cantrip, right? Yeah. They won't take that. Because it passed. It passed the save. Oh, it passes the same, so it doesn't take any damage. Gotcha. Okay. I was thinking my roll passed. Right. So. No, you're good. You're good. You unfortunately passed. And then I kind of crouched down because that's all I can do at this point. What you're carrying right now has never felt heavier than in your entire fucking life. Yeah, my arm feels like it's going to fall off. My legs feel like they're wobbly. Exactly, yes. So I'm kind of like on my knees. Which takes it to... Yeah, that's my turn. Perfect. That takes it to skeleton tone. Going to be another, sorry, I was reading something. Number 12, which is not going to hit. Jace looks really upset she hasn't killed me yet. We're all in this because I can't fucking believe it. Jables. We've got Mr. Dusty. We've got Mr. Dusty. And that one over there is like untouched, right? Yes. The one on the other side of... Here it goes. I'll swing it as close as Mr. Dusty, I guess. Mm-hmm. Brom-man? Brom-man? Thinking about using luck or not. You only have two of them, right? Yeah, I've used one. I should have used it. It's a nine. Bonus action. A lot of spitting. A lot of spitting. Great. I think I'll be chilling there. Assume you're taking an arrow bolt against a skeleton man. We're still blessed, right? Yes. Yes. Oh, we're blessed? Yes. I was going to say that, but I had my mouth full. Sorry. I didn't want to speak with a human mouth full. Was it a nine? It doesn't have it on yet. Does it change it if it's a 12? Glinting bolt. plants and blood. We're not going to smite him. We're not going to smite him. We're going to do, so it'll be half of nine. With my silver sword. Okay. Either for or fight, however you want to do it. I have unfortunately taken a very large bite of this cookie, and that could not speak. Yeah, I realize that comes at a bad time. I totally forgot we were blessed. I totally forgot.

  • Your deal hasn't taken a single attack against, or hasn't, yeah, taken a single attack since he cast a blow. So you haven't had to take a fucking constitution saving throw either, which is fucking miraculous.
  • And when he does it, he blasts it. - All right, so I'm gonna go ahead and do, yeah. - He still blasted until he drops it. - So it's my turn now, actually. And yes, I am gonna do the arrow. And I think this is my last silver arrow, if I'm not mistaken. No, no, I was saying I had two, but I hadn't used them yet. So I gotta use... You got two more. Yeah, two more. So I'm gonna use this one. So it's, again, sneak attack.

Also advantage because of Vex. No, because I haven't shot this one yet, so I don't have Vex. You still have advantage because it's attacking Iredell right now. She's the person of interest for these shadows. 23, I don't even need to add the d4. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so. No, no, no. Yeah, you've been rolling pretty consistently against these guys. Which is good. Someone's rolling well. Oh, and I think it's just a one roll this time for damage, right? So it's just three. You get the plus d4 for it, right? Because of the silver. Yeah, so it should, shouldn't it be 2d6 plus 1d4 because you get the sneak attack. Okay, three, and then I'll let it go. So... You're broke with sneak attack. Three, three, and one more roll. Two. So a cumulative... A cumulative eight. Excellent. Did you add your plus two to that as well? Yeah, that's with the plus two. Perfect, so eight. Let's see, and that shadow you just attacked for nine last... that's gonna be just enough nice so scary time's done again Three lucky silver arrows I'll have to try to take back for sure. Make sure I can recover that shit because they have been effective. Definitely, definitely, definitely. Is that your turn? I've seen things like that break before, but I've seen them not break before. I wonder. I wonder. This is me, right? Yes, sir. Is that your turn? Okay, is it going? To the left. If that is your turn, we will take it to the two remaining shadows. And they're each going to take attacks, as they have been before. We'll see if they'll hit this time. One against Jables. Yeah, I'll use dice I haven't used tonight. I'll dig deep in the bottom of all my dice. 30 Is that a no or is that a yes? Boy, I have 21. You have 21 AC? With Shield of Faith, you have 21 AC? Okay. Ear dome. Nice. 13? Doesn't hit. We just start striking fucking JoJo poses. Um, okay, so this one's kind of translucent now. This one's still corporeal. Yes. I'm gonna use the, um, sacred flame on this one in front of... On the bloodied. Yeah. Dusty. Kind of see-through. More see-through. The, uh, the foggy, the smoky. Oh, we did, uh, complete this one, right? So Dex save and throw for the Dusty Krusty. 13 is the DC. It doesn't make it. 1d8 radiant. 6 radiant. 6 radiant? Yes. To the one that hasn't been damaged yet? To the one that is damaged. Okay, that definitely kills it. Yes. And that's it. That's all I can do. Oh, man. Oh, man. Make sure you get it far enough on the other side so I can hear it. Give it a shot. I'm using my inspiration to get some advantage on this bitch. So blessed. Yeah. Thank Christ. Because that could be the difference between hitting the mess in here again. Does a 13 hit? Yes. Oh yeah, 12 is a glancer. 12 is a glancer. And I am going to smite it this time. With my last spell slot. Nice. So with the silvered short sword, they'll pay... and Let me get these my... Radiant. It explodes. Nice. Good job. If your strength had been reduced to zero by these attacks, you would have died. Yeah, that's what I was afraid of. Me too. Outright death. No saves. No saves, just gone. Just dead. But the dodges were there. I kept getting rattled by my arrow hits and they were like... All you got to do is you got to be the bless. As soon as you do that, the gods see your favor and they seek to provide. I was hoping I could show the faith both of us after I did it. It's interesting that the second time I brought you to near instant death in these comments, it's different to your maneuvering these well. It's fine. Irredill's no stranger to near death. Seems so. Seems so. It's kind of like, you know, a pattern for her. She's very used to it. Very used to it. This actually looks toast. Isn't the grinder sitting over there? No, that's what it's like. I'll go ahead and load it. Yeah, just ground some up in there. That leaves you in this room. You now have Iridel. I thought you were going to say level 3. My bad. Not yet. You now have a smoky crystal orb worth 25 gold pieces. Nice. And you can use it as an arcane focus, but it's not magical. You gave me a life worth 25 gold pieces. Almost. I lived. Almost gave you Put it on the line. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, those shadows popped out and just each took several, I mean, attacks. So I don't know how y'all are feeling. Not as fast. Yeah, and, you know, I'm real tired. Real, real, real tired. Am I able to do Find Familiar... During the long rest? Yeah. So you're trying to go back above? First things first, I do want to retrieve all of the silver arrows that I shot. Is that something I need to do anything special for, or can I just say I have to go back? Because I want those things back. Make me an investigation check with advantage. You gotta take a hit for the luck. Alright, so it was an investigation with advantage, and so you roll twice. What were you investigating again? He's trying to find the silvered arrow. Oh, okay. You're able to find three of them. Nice. The fourth one unfortunately broke. Oh, I only shot three. Oh, that's right. You found three of them. Sorry, sorry, yes. Yeah, so I get all three of them. Nice, awesome. So I'm back to all four. They have survived the fight and now I'm back to this. Perfect. Good deal. Thank you for making those. I wouldn't have even thought about it. They were our knives, you know. We just had them laying around the dining room. So... I don't want to buy them, but... This is going to move you guys. Are we going upstairs? Yes. Are we resting in the house proper? Is that the plan? I think so, because we're right below the... Don't pay attention to the green stuff. I'm kind of looking at some of the green stuff. I'm looking at some of the green stuff. Right, it's this way around. The exact spot that you were in before. Yes. So, I mean, what, we should probably just go to a bedroom, yeah? Or something? Or do we just long rest in here, or what? You could potentially do that. You did just long rest a moment ago, right? Yeah. You could long rest again, though, if you needed. There's a lot of need. Yeah, that was some pretty heavy battles and stuff. We've got to do it at one strength. My thought was maybe we spark a fire in the fireplace that's right in this room if we can. You can. This is a well-stocked den. There was like high bleeding shit in this room as the table does depict. But yeah, you could. I think it makes sense to do it here. I also do want to go ahead and find my familiar at the very, like, just the start of it. Spend that ten minutes getting a crow. So I assume you're, Del, other than that, you're trying to sleep for a bit as well. Can we lock the door? You could. We'll lock the door. You could lock the door. How did we, where's the secret passage that we've been going through? In this corner right here. Is it like a thing on the floor, or is it like a... Yes. Yes, there is now. You will notice that... The floor did not look like this to give you guys this first pass through around, so it seems to have somehow modified upon you guys opening it from the bottom up. Because there's clearly a hatch door here now. And it knocked the seam loose or something, you know? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, do we want to try to put something on top of it? Whenever I rest, I'm just going to scoot a chair on top of it and sit on top of it. Roll me two D hundreds for the cumulative eight hours you guys are going to try to rest in this room. Because I'm going to start by sitting in that chair and playing us a ballad of our great battle before I pass out to give you guys some inspiration. Did you guys use your inspiration? I have not. I used mine. I have not used mine. I'm going to keep doing it. Inspiration's good. Paul wants to roll the hundreds. You can go for it. That's terrible. That's an 8. That's an 8. An 8? I believe that's an 8. It's two 0s and an 8. Shoot. That is an 8. - Nothing still happened. - Someone else roll up.

  • I did pretty good on my roll, but yeah. - Go for it. - I got 52 last time, I know it's pretty good.
  • I got some pretty bad hundreds today.
  • With my strength, I'm not thinking I can put stuff on my back right now, you know what I mean?
  • Hey, that's twice what I do. - You got to trust what that is.
  • So how does the familiar work?
  • That was inspiring. - At this point.

It's essentially within 100 feet of you, you can use an action to share consciousness with it. It's pretty useful. But it just joins us as part of the party, right? Yes. And I get to choose the type and the form. Yes. So if it finds, you can have it scout ahead and then use your perception as its perception and see stuff. It's very good. I don't think it really can attack, but it can use the help action, which can help give you and your allies advantage on attacks in some scenarios. Depending on which one you summon, it might be able to do a low-level attack. It's very good. It's got like a lot of fucking tech. How do I know what actions it can take in battle? Because it does say a family I can't attack, but it can take other actions as normal. So they're referring to like the helmet. Okay. So like it could peck something's eye to like distract it or something. Do it. Like, nothing that does damage, I would assume, since it says it can't attack. Yes. I'd have to look at it again, but I... But it's kind of like also a shield because it takes damage. It can. It's based on the creature's stats. You guys, once you long rest, you're coming back down the hatch into this area once again, yes? Well, did we... We pretty much explored everything, didn't we? You didn't go down a flight of stairs where you heard strong... Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah, I completely forgot about the chanting, to be honest. And it was right up here. Yeah, I forgot about that. I was completely... I got sidetracked by the... I kind of looked at... Which direction was the chanting coming from? Just from the left over there, right? Yeah, it was that direction. It's very strong to the west, which you know to be kind of a general vicinity. We pretty much cleared out everything in all of the other areas. That was really the only place left to go, I'm pretty sure. So we just need to make our way back that direction if we want to clear the rest of it out. I did assume that my strength went back to normal. That'd be crazy at level 2. Getting hit once is game ending, basically, if it's persistent. You couldn't even technically wear the things you were wearing. At one strength, you would be like an infant strength. I'm already a weakling. Yeah. Gray makes a good point. We should go ahead and go that direction. What do you think, Jules? Yeah, I'm down. I'm going to go check out the chanting. Yeah. I'll go ahead and navigate you guys back all the way over here so you can see. You want to give my shield light again after we go down there? Yeah. And you would see more stairs down. Because it's free. It's free. I also have a... torch i can give you i prefer i know i'm just saying for those moments when i'm not around oh yeah we should have we completely forgot about that in that bedroom we could have grabbed you like a few torches to actually use i've got candles and stuff and you know light is just the i could technically when i level give myself to me well oh yeah yeah yeah we're just doing this well i gotta remember too i also have a cantrip where i couldn't make Light and brighter if we need to do that at any point. But I think what we have so far fills up all the rooms we've been in. I just keep thinking I need to remember that because that can be useful. If you've got flames or something you've got in your hand, I can brighten them up. Ghostly chanting will very strongly emanate from the stairs in this room. Y'all are about to be in. Ghostly. Perception check. 10 Thank you. Sorry, perception checks. 14. Because everyone got over it today, at least, thank God. You can really start to kind of discern a few dozen or so voices saying over and over, he is ancient, he is the land. So you can kind of actually make out the chanting that's been happening this whole time. You are also going to notice this room is filled with relics in each of these little cubbies, as you can see right here. Small mummified hands, a carved knife out of human bone, a dagger, varnished orbs, folded cloaks, bags of weird things. So this is kind of like a room of road queries. You can find yourself in. After everything else you named it, there was bags of weird things on top of that? Yes. Okay. Bags of bag one of... Oh. You know, I didn't ask. You said weird things. That's weird shit. If I'm being honest. But that's just a few good little snippets. What do y'all do? Do they seem valuable at all? I'm just curious. Make me a... Investigation check. I'm gonna do that too. Sure. Fifteen. They seem like fucking junk to you. Okay. I have five minutes, so I'm just kind of probably just like the last step of that and immediately dismiss them. You're taking Airedale's word for it. Yeah. Yeah, fourteen. Yeah, these seem like fucking... This is trash. I think we just keep moving, right? Gotta figure out why these people are chanting in our house. In our house! We gotta clear this shit out so we can sell it, man. We gotta tell everybody it's clear. They're gonna roast us on Zillow if we don't. Yeah, really? So you would see... I feel like there's two ways out of this house. Or out of this room. So you would have options. Alright, you got two options. You wanna do a high blow roll? Leave it to chance. I'm cool with that. I'm cool with whatever. You decide that because I know the number. No, I saw the number. Which, high right or high left? Right. Then we're going right. I had to make it fair. That's why we just sent that out. I know it. She's saying there might be one left. Right as this one? Yes, because high is right. Because we are high. So if you go down this, you would find yourself in a large, rusty, iron portcullis that is blocking your path. Can I somehow see if it's in any way a mimic? I'm doing anything in interaction with it. Let's do some perception checks. Does it seem alive? Okay, investigation. I'm definitely doing the same thing. That's a smart idea. We're all traumatized. Oh, God. I only got a six. It doesn't seem like a mimic. I got an eight. It doesn't seem like a mimic to you all? It seems like you're a poor case. Can we touch it? With my silver short sword, I give it a... Smart. It sounds like metal, as the iron portcullis should be. Before we open any doors, do we want to check the other path? That's what I was thinking. I kind of want to check the other path before we go through a door. Rusty portcullis is kind of... That seems like the next area, you know what I mean? The chanting was incredibly strong from there, too. It seemed almost like they were on the other side. Yeah, that definitely makes me want to not go there just yet. You would find yourselves now in kind of a prison area, quickly seeing, as you do right here, shackles. Mounted to the walls. Is that like an opening in there? Do you see it? None of these are openings as of yet, but there is a long hallway. I green the last one, so somebody else can. That'd be awesome. I did the one right before that. And you would be able to come down and see that there is just a bunch of shackles. And you do see one skeleton. Wait. Like laying on the ground inactive? Yeah, this one is right here. Other than that, you can see most of these are just empty shackles. Looking closer at the skills. Do you have an Olympic cannon? Yes. Also, everyone make me perception checks before you look at the skills. 19. 7. Excellent. 7. Not the best. Can I pet you? I let you in. You're a sweetie. And he was like, sure, I guess. I got to walk by you, but I don't want to walk. 19. Thank you for having me. I've been rolling horrible on those all night, so it's about time. So you and Jables would both see a secret door. I know I put that one in. Hey. Insider information. We found a secret door, Jabels. I'm gonna remove myself from it. We found a secret door. Secret tunnel. Secret tunnel. Uh, can I still look closer at the skeleton before we do anything with the secret door? You absolutely can. Um... Find the skeleton is in a tattered black robe. The only thing of value you would find on him is a gold ring on one of his fingers. With 25 gold. With 25 gold? So it's worth as much as that quartz thing? I don't think I'm going to touch it. You guys can grab it if you want. That's probably not a better. I was thinking I would probably grab it immediately if it was worth as much as the thing that we just did all that for. Are you going to do the go-drink jambles? Is there an extra investigation check I can do to make sure it's not... Shadow tracked? I mean, something like that. Would detective magic be something that would help with something like that? Possibly. I'm gonna go with at least an investigation on it, though, quite first, just to see if anything feels extra off about it. 'Cause I know you said you're just avoiding it outright. I'm just a little traumatized at the moment. It's not bad, 15. It seems normal to me. What do you think? Are you gonna investigate it as well? No. Yeah, if you want it, I'm here. I'm gonna leave it. Maybe if we feel like we're feeling good later. Now he stands up and comes after us. Yeah, that ring is ours. No. No, no, no. Yeah, we decided. Jeez, you see how fucking excited she seems? I think we made the right choice. Yeah, it sounds like it. No, no, no. It was not booby-trapped. Goddamn. I am not a crypt. So I assume you guys are... And then you guys see the door. Yeah, it does end down there, right? There wasn't anything else. It does. It does. You guys would see mostly empty little prison cells with shackles. Does the secret door also sound like the chanting is really strong coming from it? 100%. Okay, so this seems like an alternate entrance to that other door that we were wary about, but we're ready to just go through. I haven't seen a mimic be a wolf. or a fake door thing. That's true. Well, and rusty metal doors would be pretty loud, so... That's very true. Everybody would sneak up. Yeah, so we enter and stay real close to the wall. Maybe peek through instead of just walking right through. So... The chanting stops as you peer into this 40-foot square room. The smooth masonry walls provide excellent acoustics. Featureless stone pillars support the ceiling, and a branch in the west wall leads to a dark cave heaped with refuse, which is back here. Murky water covers most of the floor. Stairs lead up to dry stone ledges that hug the walls. In the middle of the room, more stairs rise to form an octagonal dais that also rises above the water. Rusty chains with shackles dangle from the ceiling directly above a stone altar mounted on the dais. The altar is carved with hideous Depictions of grasping schools and disdain with dry blood. Because of lengthy description. But this is essentially a pretty nasty ritual chamber you guys have found yourselves in. I don't know if I want to stop in that water at all. I'm going to stay on the lintels. Is there anything that I can-- I'm pretty sure it might be like just deep on me. Oh, yeah. Can we tell how deep that water is? If you walk one step closer, you can tell that the water is two feet deep. Oh, yeah, so I would be underwater, and I'm not walking in that. I will stay on the ledges, guys. Are you only, like, three feet tall, four feet tall? Let me look at my stuff again just to make sure. You can always ride on your shoulders. I think I'm three to four feet. I can't even stack. - I have one person carrying another carrying a bag.

  • There you go, there you go. - I didn't write like a specific height or anything, but, or no, yeah, I did, three feet six inches. I'm three feet six inches tall, that's what I wrote down. - So yeah, it's like your nose above water. - If you think right here, that's about it. Literally my head and that's it, probably.
  • So, what do I do?
  • Future personal ones? - Before we do that, is there anything that indicates where the chanting might have been coming from that just stopped?
  • It sounds like it came from the very center of the room.

And what was the description saying was down to the bottom there was like some kind of room with junk in it or something? So it seemed as though there was like a small hobble with some like refuse. Okay. So like it was a dark, more natural cave. You couldn't get very good vision of it. I was going to say, my initial reaction is that before going forward, I might start kind of walking around the outside edge a little bit. So I might start walking up towards the top because we didn't really hear a description of what was up there, except for the door. On the dice? No, not towards the dice, like up towards the top of the screen. You guys make your way up there. Just to... Just to see if... You would see an iron portcullis. Yeah, which has the backs of the door and that is that. Switch to the portcullis that you did not see on the other side. Okay. But there would be more of that kind of like smooth masonry all the way around. Okay. That's really all I wanted to do, just move a little closer so I could see what was up there. Good to know that there's a switch to open the door, because... Might not be a quick escape. Maybe, maybe. But what are y'all going to do? Is anyone going to attempt to go to the dais in the middle? Can I send my raven? Can I go check it out? You can. I'm going to do that.

  • You just have it kind of fly around?
  • Yeah, kind of fly, find like an area right near the ritual spot, potentially like land or, you know, look to see what it sees there that it couldn't see from next to me.
  • Okay, maybe a perception check.

17. As you fly with your raven and see through its eyes and try to get a close and personal look at this dais, it does seem to be just like a ritual sacrificial slab in the middle of this chamber. Nothing much else stayed up to you other than that. Am I able to tell if the blood that I can see is now dry or wet? It's dry. Can you be all attempting to go up there? Sorry, I was, uh... Is there anything that we can tell about the wall? Blinking at your cat. Just blinking. Yeah, we're afraid of it. Do we want to go maybe check out that other, a little more natural cave area? Since up top is just the door, we're going to go investigate that a little more before we get too close to the guys. I'm afraid of that shit. Also, I don't think I'm gonna even go to it. I'm definitely gonna stay on the outside while you guys go in. I can lob shots if battle ensues. Sadly, I think what's gonna end up having to happen is I'm gonna have to walk over there to it. So you try to go over here? And see what's in this? That was my thought. If that's... I just wanted to... I just wanted to see what the hell was down here before we started doing anything else. 24. Excellent, excellent. Iridel is seeing a lot. Because mine ended up being 8, even though that's what I wanted to do. 11. 11. So Iridel is the one that really gets a good look at this naturally formed alpha. You'll be able to recognize this half-submerged pile of refuse as a shambling mound. What does that mean? Don't go near it is what I would say very quietly. I've only vaguely heard of that. Is that something maybe we need to do a history check on? Sure. Everyone give it a shot. I don't want to like, you know. I am going to say don't go near it. I got a good roll on that one. That's not bad. 18, not bad. You said history? Yes. Thank God y'all are here. Your deal can make it with advantage because you're a druid and this is kind of a 0-5. Okay. Terrible. 19 plus 120. Oh, 20. So what was yours again? Greg? 18. So y'all two, you're not able to really recall anything even though Travis recalls a lot. But you two... They're able to kind of recall histories, and, you know, the Shambling Mound is a very formidable forest creature that has a lot of health, naturally resistant to lightning. In fact, heals from lightning. Okay. It's just, it's, it's... Okay, I'm just like... So we're, so I'm glad that I... Is it, like, naturally... - Violence towards everything, everything.

  • It's a creature of consumption. It's very much a natural force, not something to be reasoned with.
  • Yeah, 'cause the name to me makes me think like, yeah, it's gonna shamble over to you and it's gonna take you in as part of its mound.
  • Is it an aberration? I forget what they are. - Are they just monsters?
  • Maybe, look at the staff.
  • Monstrosity, maybe. 'Cause I know they're large as well. - It's a plant.

Okay, so we should head back the other way. Yeah. I don't want to touch the altar because I think that's why my thought was definitely to come up and just kind of begin. I just wanted to see what it was. So that makes me wonder that maybe they're sacrificing things to the Shambling Mound is my guess. That's a great guess. And I'm not happy with that and I don't want to fight this thing. And that checks out with the monster in the basement that the kids are talking about. Yeah. Big facts. Big facts. To test that theory, we still have that bag made of human flesh, right? Could we put a book in that and toss it at the altar and see what happens? You could try whatever you want. Are you taking the money out, putting a book in and tossing it? I would take everything out. If that's what we're planning on doing, I want us to have the entrance/exit for the secret tunnel open. We should watch it from there basically. My idea is, as I've been doing before, stand in a doorway, stand far away, my arrow's at the ready before we're about to fire. That would be a really good strategy. We could also go two exits open. therefore reducing the chance that it gets the full party if something does happen. My question is for that door that's up at top, it has that switch to open it. Do we need it to lock it again? Yeah, I don't know. Or would it lock automatically once closed? Because we could have it cracked open and maybe we could even have ourselves peeking out through the secret entrance so we could see what happens and have the familiar come in through the other door. After it's open or something, I don't know something like that one of those kind of variations something where the shambling mount might think it's Wherever we are is a different direction Or we could just block off this whole section not tell anybody about it when we sell the house and see if we can get enough money You have to go all the way into the attic and then take a secret blank eye Right. Staircase tunnel all the way to the bottom. The chance they find it on accident. And this is down... You can't, like, fix the glitch. This is down a couple levels. It's not our problem anymore at that point. Right. This is down a couple levels, right? We're in, like, the lower dungeon, right? Because if we take care of everyone who's feeding it... Yeah. And then we don't feed it. Mm-hmm. Is there anything we could, like... Nah, because I don't want to piss it off and not kill it. Is there anything we could do to, like, potentially... I would like to personally interact with it as little as possible. I just feel like a mythic plant at level 2 is not a great idea. Yeah. I'd be okay with weaving. I mean, there's no real... Unless we're just like dying to find out why there's still some mystery shaking going on. There might just be some ghost or something that's going to fight us and then we'll have to fight a ghost and a shambling mound at the same time and I'm not into that. I'm down to see what story blocker makes us come back. This room's important. So what exactly are you trying to do? Leave. Are you trying to leave the house entirely? At least go upstairs. Yeah, well, we got to go upstairs and account for all of our loot and stuff and think about what we... Sort stuff out. Sort stuff out, think if we want to go sell stuff, and then we can try leaving the house. Keeping us in the house. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, we don't know. The only way to find out is to check, you know? You guys climb up to that den area. You're able to get easily from there to, like, the entrance of a house that you're familiar with. The mist does restrict you from leaving the vicinity of the house as it did when you first arrived or came here. Even when I wave the smoky quartz orb at it? Do something. I'm trying to think if there's anything we haven't done aside from like, oh wait, me? Because I'm pretty sure we've explored most of all of the areas. If this is like the last little room thing, that could be the very last thing we've got to do, but we're definitely not. I don't think we're ready to do this. We've got to deal with that thing. We did level one. But that room changed, you said, right, earlier, so at least from the perspective of the hatch opening. Do we notice any other differences in the areas of the house that we've already explored on our way to attempt to leave? You do not. Yeah, I think we've checked all the secret passages, I think. Which actually, that's something, can I do some kind of check? Because I know I've seen all of the secret passages. Can I do a check to make sure that we've actually gone through all of them? Yes, you guys can. Can I use Bless before a battle? I think we're going to have to have you just go to the dance. I don't think we have any other story options available to us. Wait, you think we're just going to have to man up to it? Yeah, I think so. So I could bless us before you walk across the water just to be safe. I think I have my self-shield of faith. Right. Because there's also, I think I have 10 minutes left. We talked about having the familiar. Yeah, that should stay attended. So at least I have that for them. Ah, second. Did we want to try to be weird extra cautious and do the thing with the skin pouch and the familiar taking it over there while peeking through the secret tunnel door first? We could if we wanted. Do that as a quick check just before sending an actual person over? You know what would be funny? Um, we have that flask of Alchemist's Fire. Yeah, we do. Oh, yeah, that's right. I wonder. So we could, like, we could drop the bag. I got oil, too. The alchemist's fire is a liquid that once it exposes to the air, catches fire. I wonder... It does very little fire damage, but that's what it does. I was going to say, if the Shambling Mound is a plant, would that maybe be really effective against it, actually? Lightning's not, but, uh, you know, uh... One hit, the target takes 1d4 damage at the start of each of its turns. I don't think James would know anything about that. We did pretty good on our history check on that. I did. What would you remember on our history check on that? Is that something that we would be able to know? It was a dirty 20 and an 18. Yeah, I think we were still got over 20, I think. Oh, yeah, 23. Would we know that fire would be effective against it? Or whether fire would be extra effective against it? Like this alchemist's fire? I actually don't even know what that is. It would... You would know that fire is not good. Okay. I didn't want to... Okay, I just wanted to... You never know. If it's plant-based, sometimes you can have a fire. This is like... This is like a dank... It's like a walking swamp. Yeah, okay, yeah, swampy kind of thing. That makes sense. It consumes wherever it fucking walks on to. It looks like refuse, so it looks... Do you have your mini? The one I made for this shambling man? Yes, I'll have to bust him out. But y'all aren't finding the shambling man at this moment, so... It's just a good representation, in my opinion, is why I asked. Oh, I'm glad you think so. I'm glad you think so. Can I find it? Just wanted to double check and make sure. Yeah, you seem to have lost your seat. Yeah, I'm conducted. Lightning, fire is not that great against it. I forget what is good against it. I probably wouldn't say it even if I remembered. Just because... I don't have many good memories of it, I don't think. No, no, my character would not. Any memories at all? I would have known enough, I feel, to say, oh fuck, it's a shambling mound. How many minis? No idea whether or not it's the same thing. It's good that we have a moment because you guys are deliberating on who wants to start walking into the dais. Have you guys decided? Oh my Christ, she's making us do it. I told you. It is the only path. I'm going to end up shielding myself whenever we do it. Before we do it, you wait. You wait. Going to hit. Now, before we get into this, I should strategize a bit and see if I can actually use some of my spells. He's like, what the fuck are you trying to do over there, mother? You're disturbing my chill. Your little kitty cat? Yeah. Actually, I'm going to double check and see if I can see her on the camera. Thank you.

  • Yep.

Standing in the corner of my bedroom window. Keep them with my regular trees. I have two of them, but... Amen. - people's chairs and their boots. I've been chewing through it though. My back the fuck up and chewing dead strategy has been working so far. I'm going to put a lot of focus on my ranged skills from now forward, I think. Y'all are doing a good job taking quick turns too. Once you know what your turn is going to be. Yeah, for me right now there's not a whole lot else I can do. As long as I get back out of the way, it's just... Position myself correctly and hope I roll good. Once I get a few better spells and start doing some actual class-based stuff, probably it'll make a big difference. Exactly. These are one of the best. I need so many of these. No, I'm not surprised all the hot dogs you got in those were good. I also didn't eat basically anything else today. I had a little protein. Fair amount of protein. There's a lot of protein, but it's only 150 calories. It's all I had. Besides, I'm still going to eat a lot. Exactly. That'll get you hungry. What do we think, Gary? Are we gazing it? I'm standing in the open secret passageway with my bow at the ready. Do we want to see what it does if we put a bag of flesh out there, or do we want to just walk out there and say, let's do this thing? I think those are the two options. I mean, what are we going to do with the bag of flesh? Let's test it out and see what happens. That way we're not standing out in the middle of the deep water when shit goes down. Yeah. We take everything out of that right first and then have the raven go drop it over on the... Are we going to... We don't need to put anything else in it because it's just... The raven probably just dropped the raw flesh over there. Yeah. You can just fly over and drop it on there and fly back. Just like drop it on the table and fly back. Are we going to do this while we're, are we going to be fully inside the room or are we going to be behind the room with it kind of cracked open? It didn't matter. Nothing happened. Nothing happened. Sorry. Okay. Okay, well, shit. I've got my book ready. yeah i think uh do we want to use the bless thing so i still have my spell slots or that's probably the scroll oh yeah we could do it by the scroll the bless with the scroll yeah that's a good idea let's also take a look at some of the rest of the uh This stuff that we have in Slythene, the rest of it was useful. Because didn't we have, like, a chain shirt? Did we give that to anybody? Well, I already have chain armor on. The druid can't wear metal. Is that something I could wear? It might slow me down a little bit. It's medium armor. I believe. Or maybe it's heavy armor. I don't know. Chain shirt? Armor class 13. Weight 20 pounds. You can doff this armor as magic action. Oh. A chain shirt? That's what it's... Cast off chain shirt, is that right? Is that the right thing? Hmm. What did you say? I don't know if it was a cast off chain shirt, but it definitely was a chain shirt. Um... Didn't give a lot of specifics on it yet. Let me see. We do have... I do have to use this as a regular chain shirt. Or health pot. It seems like the same thing. That might have... Or it's medium armor, yeah. Yeah. Okay. They are different, so I'm going to switch it out. Yeah. Switch one out. What is it? What I have in our party inventory to the correct thing. I was like, be careful putting that in the middle. Yeah. We have four health pots. How do we want to hold on to those? Yeah, good call. I'm far enough out of the way. Maybe it might be good for me to have one just in case since I can't do any healing actions. Yeah. I have one on me just in case. Okay, I'll add that to my inventory. Good job. We have that four from that one chest. Yeah, did we put that in the group inventory already? I just had it written down, I don't know. What was it? The health box. Yeah, I have those potions of healing for... Yeah, I was saying, how do we want to split them up for this? I was thinking one to me, maybe just because I don't have any other way to heal and I'm far away from the main action a lot of the time. But then the rest for you guys to split up. I would also be okay not having one if you guys just want to split them both up. I think everyone should have one. Yeah. Maybe two for me because I can heal you. Yeah, that makes sense to me. I can also, if I end up needing to, I can bonus action heal myself with Lion Hands. So hold on to one of them, you hold on to two. And Gray's got one of them. Yep. How's the bullseye lantern? I should have looked that up earlier. I don't think it'll help us with this. It's adventuring gear. It burns oil as fuel, casts bright light in a 60-foot cone, and dim light for an additional 60. Very bright light. Okay, so maybe whoever's going out there carries it with them because it'll fill up the whole room. Not a bad idea? I believe the whole room was filled up with the light from my shield anyway. Yeah. What were we thinking about for the chain shirt? Is that something I could wear? What are your armor proficiencies? It's a good proficiency. No, it's just light armor. Never mind. So I can wear it and you can wear it, right? Well, I'm wearing better stuff already because I have chain mail. So should I go ahead and put it on underneath my leather? You can. Can't really wear metal as a druid. It's got like a whole thing. Do you think it does specify that? I believe you, but I do want to see it. It would be like it's under your natural armor definitions. specifically on your character sheet as much as it is in the PHV. OK. Then I guess it just stays in the inventory because there's no need for us to use it. We'll just sell it later. This is light armor and shields. Yeah. Change that in five Well, the chain shirt's a medium anyway, right? Yeah. Because this says light armor for druids. The item says that I have proficiency in it. This is the only thing that I'm seeing. Seems like it's a druid belief thing based on the lore stuff that I'm seeing. It's not that you lack the ability to wear metal stuff, you choose not to wear it. Yeah, that's what I was saying. It's part of your identity as a domestic order. Okay. Then I would not put it on, even though I can see benefits and I can see that I could wear it. It seems like it only, from what I was reading, it only applies to weapons and shields specifically. Like you can use, or not weapons, shields and armor. But you can use weapons and wear jewelry, that's fine. It's weird. I guess it's because the others are more like wearing and they cover more of your body. But jewelry is smaller. You could find bones. That's pretty good. I did say at one point or another you may get access to a medium armor. We're using the blessed scroll, right? Yeah. That's only a minute concentration, right? You want to hold on to that until you guys actually get into combat? You could if you want. It's an action. It's a magic action. Yeah, just do it as the first thing. I'm gonna do my shield of faith before I walk out there but because it's ten minutes. I don't have anything I can do that will help right away. Okay, so you're the one going out in the middle? I mean, yeah the person with health and armor, yeah. We haven't done it yet. We're still strategizing. I know you're really antsy to fucking throw a shambling mallet at me. That's why we're strategizing. Can I ask how big this room is? Like, dimension-wise? I'm thinking about the range of my arrows and where I could maybe be standing when we start this. Because I'm thinking about, like, I'm standing in the doorway right now, but it might be better to be standing on the very upper side of the screen up there where I'm thinking. You put the wrong me in the middle. Oh, yeah. So it's roughly like a 40 by 40 cube. 40 foot by 40 foot? Okay, so that's fully within my range. You put the wrong knee in the middle. Force a habit. I know, I know. I can't fault you guys. I will end up out there. I guess you two place yourselves as you would accordingly in this instance. As you strategize. I will be one spell slot down when I go out there. You know what I was thinking? Maybe instead of me being in the secret entrance, me being over here by this so I can be ready to open this door and get out that way if needed. Because up here I can still hit everything. I'd be out of your way. That was my thought, just because I've got a lot of range. This put him between you and the mound where it is currently. Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah, the mound itself. I think we need to worry about the second way out. It was just a thought. Unless it looks like the tunnel behind us is going to somehow collapse. And it's not like that door was locked or anything. We didn't even try to open it. That's true. We heard the chanting and we're like, well. That's true, yeah. All right, I was just thinking about it. But yeah, I'll stay in the, standing in the. doorway so I would be not quite all the way at the edge here more like right at the edge here Silver, okay, silver arrow. Overcomes magical resistance, but I don't think that's gonna be much of an issue for arrows. Yeah, yeah, so I'll be using my regular arrows. It's not like a wraith or something, you know? It's a shambler. It's a shambler. It's a shambler, little kink, eh? Is that where you want to be in this engagement, Iredel? I'm thinking about it. Did we decide if I should be using that scroll before or during? I mean, it's... Are you going to be in the water? I think I'm going to be in the water so that I'm able to move to wherever I need to or see both of y'all clearly. If you use it now... Would it, like, potentially wear off before we get into battle? It lasts a minute. Each round of combat is six seconds, so it technically lasts ten rounds. Okay. And you could also still use Bless otherwise if we needed to in combat if we ran out, right? Right, that's why I wanted to use the scroll, because then I still have my three spell slots, so I could still use it in battle if that happens. Okay, yeah. So let's go ahead. We can go ahead and do that. If you want to use it as soon as I touch the altar, you can. Right. You can do whatever you want. Because if there's a non-combat saving throw, that's the thing that I'm concerned about as well. Because it would still give you the d4 for that. Right. So I think we used it. Yeah, I'm cool with that. Since I have it as a... It makes sense. Do it. Sounds good to me. Cool. Okay, so we're going to use that. I wanted the information. Would you mind putting one of those shambling mouths on this map, Austin? No, for no reason. For no reason whatsoever? I'm just gonna make sure it's over in the... Look at that ugly fuck. Oh, hell yeah. You can get it right where it needs to be. I'm sorry, dude. Looking like some refuse for sure. All right, so is that where you want to be, Iridel? In the water? Would you rather be towards the mound or towards up here? I think towards, I don't know, this one. Like this, maybe? Maybe like right here on the steps. You want Hermione to go towards me, not you. Yeah. Like right behind you on the steps over here maybe. Okay. The moment that Jabil climbs onto the top of the dice, you guys are going to hear the chanting rise once more as 13 dark apparitions appear on the ledges overlooking the room. Each one resembles a black robed figure holding a torch, but the torch's fire is black and seems to draw the light into it. Where you'd expect to see faces are voids. One must die! One must die! One must die! They will chant over and over again. Where are they? Like on these things here? Yep, they're all around. These are just columns that are like going up to the ceiling, right? So they're on the same outside ledge that I'm on. So I might be like behind one of them or something. They're chanting that over and over again. One must die. Does that count as one of them? Can I shoot one of them in the head? Probably not, no. I'm not gonna stop you though. Right. I don't like these things. I was thinking about using Sacred Flame on one of them. I mean if they're shadow things again, that makes me want to use the silver again. Everyone in the room give me either a religion or an insight check. Nat 20 plus five insight. A 12-inch light. Six. Or an 11-inch light. Uri Del immediately recognizes that these re-hears want a ritual sacrifice. So they're essentially wanting one of you guys to die, or someone to die, on this altar. They can't do anything about it, right? They haven't made a move, they're just standing on these things. Can I trick them into thinking something gets sacrificed? That bag of flesh is still there, right? You have what? I can create an image of an object or something. There's no larger than a five foot cube, but interaction would reveal it to be an illusion, but I could make like, I could make a fake dead me because I'm smaller than the five foot cube. I could make a fake image of me being dead on the, on the thing. Would I be able to, can I, if I make the image, can I make it like go from where I am? Like if I go back into here and hide and make it, could I make it walk out over there? Can I do that with my, Minor illusion? It only lasts a minute. I think you would be able to do something like that, but they're not going to be fooled by your vision. No. If you attempt it, you actually are able to pull it off. Well, you are able to, because minor illusion is pretty good as it can be. Based on my insights and religious backgrounds, is there anything else that I can draw upon to think of things that would fulfill the requirements that they're looking for. They want a soul to be sacrificed. A life to be given. Okay, I mean, my familiar... Who would my familiar qualify? No. You would know that, you know, the spectral beings would not... I'm about to just sacred flame one of these fuckers, dude. Okay, I mean, if we're sacred flaming, I'll sacred flame him. They're not affected by the sacred plant. So they're not real. They are chanting. You can't listen to every voice. There is that dead body in the other room. Yeah, but they want a soul. Yeah, that's true. I mean, we didn't touch the ring. Maybe there's something with the ring. What do we have that is equivalent to the human soul? Sick rock ballad. Give them that smoky quartz sphere. Play them some soul music. Can we pull a... Go, my girl. exactly where you guys are standing i'm sorry we're there yeah we're on our spot because yeah it was just sacred flaming for me yeah same just like oh i see you i see you i have continued if they haven't noticed me or if they even can notice i'm behind them so i'm just kind of staying Okay, so I spit on the altar. I do have I could use spare the dying. So we could technically take somebody down to a death save and immediately stabilize them. I want to look at the things that are yelling at us and just be like, does that thing have a soul? Right? The shambling mound? Oh, yeah. Can we sacrifice the mound? That would be, yeah, that would be maybe fulfilling. That would suck. That's what we have to do. We were expecting that to find me exactly what you're trying to do. I'm asking them if that thing has a soul as a point towards them. They will not respond to your question. They won't respond to my question. I Amazon support. Can I literally any support analyze the situation further and the things within the room that might qualify this without sacrificing one of our party? A lot of murder has happened. A lot of murder. Murder is everywhere. In fact, the evidence of murder in this entire dungeon has just been rampant. Grab that ring. We might as well go grab the ring. We'll get that ring first. Maybe it's... She got the ring and we should also grab, I tell you, we should grab the corpse and see if we can at least throw it as a distraction. Maybe it'll slow the mountain down. Maybe it has to absorb that thing first before it comes to us. I mean, I imagine all three of us would be going to grab the ring. Yeah, I don't think we'd go individually. Disrespect these things. Yeah. They have disrespected us. Yeah, they're like, all right, well, uh... We'll be right back. We got you. We got you, fam. We got you, fam. So, the moment that both Jables and Iridil step off of the dais, you are going to hear them say something else. Now they give us feedback. Hmm? They're going to say, "The end comes! Death be praised!" And the Shambling Mount is going to awake. No fucking shit. And start attacking you. Oh, of course. How long did that take? What? That whole... From the time we stepped onto the dais to the time we stepped off and they said that and he woke up. That's true. 30 seconds? 15 seconds? Something long enough for the blast. How long y'all been on this dais overall? We've been sitting here like y'all been talking about like the different things and thinking about stuff, sacred claiming, so it's, it's, are you asking for your 10 minute shield of faith? No, I'm asking, no, I'm just curious. It's not just like 30 minutes or anything like that, but it's been at least like five now to seven minutes that y'all have been kind of like doing different things and asking questions on this dais. So you said he's active and you said initiative. Is that what you said? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Eighteen. balancing between nat 20 and god 2 so 4 total At least I'm in the furnace today. Watching it teeter. Just get robbed. That's fresh, isn't it? Is it? Oh, shit. Oh, yeah, I think it was mine to hit, and I was busy. All right. Six. Six. 18. Four. Four. Shit. Maybe kind of. So we're only out. Let me put on some music for me to try to hear with his mouth more. So, not surprisingly so, it's going to be Iridel at the top of the round. I'm gonna use Bless. Okay. On the three of us. That's a good first turn. And then... Yes, I'm produced flame. It's ready to go if I need it. Okay. That'll do it. Sounds good. That takes it to the mail. Jamble. On over to you guys. It is a little bit further back here, so it's going to have to take its full movement to get right about here. And then it's going to use its action dash to get right next to both of you guys. And that is going to be its turn, which takes it to Jamble's. At least I'm in a good position for worship. Shambles around the weekend. Shambling man. Gotta open up a Luck Point swing. That gives you advantage, right? Yeah. I was trying to decide about silver versus my regular long sword. Because I don't know if it has any resistances I really need to over call. I guess since I don't know, well no, because it's also not undead so I won't get the power. Yeah, I'm just gonna use my regular one, so... God, that hits. It's 23. Yes. It's your desk. Should I have rolled initiative for the familiar? Yeah, just, yeah, makes sense to me. It'll be 8 Dimash. What manner of damage? It's a long story, but I'm just flashing. Flashing, guys. What? You don't have two-handed weapon fighting, do you, right? As a paladin? Two-handed weapon fighting? What do you mean? Like holding one in each hand? Yeah. Oh, no, I've got a shield in one hand. I've got two weapons. That's right. I have two weapon fighting. You're the one with two weapon fighting. I've been swapping them out. Yeah, so I could dagger in short swords. I wish I had so many more spell slots. It's such shit. They didn't give me an extra one when I leveled up. Hopefully you get some more fun in level 3. I do. I do. I'm gonna spit at it. Okay. The mound loves that. I bet. Gray. It's not focused on our boy Gray. It's not. It is not. music Yeah, so nothing special regular - Do I have advantage if it's attacking the others? - Yeah. - Okay, so.

  • You guys have eyes on your friends right now.
  • So I'll go ahead and do the usual two and we're blessed, correct? - Yep. - So the usual two and then the usual two afterward.

Let me take this. - You just wait until it's like three or four D6 for sneak attack. - Jesus. - Yeah, yeah, it adds up. - Yeah. - You get a crit, yeah. So you get more of them at like level 5 or like level, you know, different levels. Alright. Good thing I have two because that one was an 8. 11 plus, what do you need? You guys cashed. Alright, cool. 11 plus 1, 12. You want to try it? Sure. It's a 12. I'm glad I had all the extra stuff because of that. I don't know if I need a 12. Dang, missed the first shot. I don't have anything else to do. I'm just going to stick where it is. If it hasn't noticed me because I missed, I'm going to stick nice and in. No, no, it's got its eyes on the prize. I'll just do my usual function of being the extra damage happening in the background for the rest. Thank you. Sacred Flame. Okay. Dex save on my part. I need 920. Okay. Do what? He gets a 9. 920? Good time for that. Yeah, yeah. Goody's getting out of the way now. That's it for that. I don't really have any bonus actions to take, but I guess it would be the familiar, so I send it to distract before Jables' next turn to try to get him advantage. Okay. There's the help action. To the mound, he is going to make his multi-attack. He's going to make one tendril attack against you, Jables, and then he's going to try to engulf you, Geardum. So let's do the attack first. Engulf. It's a sham burn. It is a sham burn. - Uber 20? - How much are we? 16 plus 7. Yeah, yeah. Yes, that will hit. So he's going to do his little attack against you. It's going to do 5 bludgeoning and... I really miss my berserker's rage sometimes. Resistance to bludgeoning and pursuant slashing. Yeah. Yeah, I can see why. Your bludgeoning is going to do three lightning. Skeleton. I'm going to impose on you, Iridel, a DC 15 strength saving throw. DC 15 strength saving? Yes. Do you have inspiration and bless? I will definitely use inspiration on this one. Thank you. That's just two of these and a d4. Yes. The highest number. So that's a 19. Beautiful. Excellent. Excellent. So you were able to overcome and in this turn take it from Jables. Nice. And I have advantage on the attack already? Yes. Yes. Because of your ability. I know what I'm doing. One off, man. It's gonna hit, though. It's like 25. 19? Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Give me the digital. I'm going to be six slashing. And for my bonus action, I'm going to do lay on hands, give myself five health. Before I spit on it. Great. Of course. The mound is probably just gonna absorb that shit. It's not lightning spit, so it won't heal it. Yeah, is my turn again? Yep, sure is. All right, so yeah, and then I've got the whole advantage thing, so I'll roll twice and see what happens. I got a nat 20. Distracting the familiar's huge. So yeah, I got the nat 20 on that, which I'm assuming... You got a nat 20 on your... Well, I rolled two of them. The second one was a nat 20. That's what the advantage is for. You can get the nat 20s today. You get the sneak attack as well, so it's going to be whatever you roll plus 14. Gave me two dice, both were fives. Give me two d6s, both were fives. Actually, that works because you roll sneak attack anyway, so you'll take 10. So it'd be the two fives plus two. So it's 12 plus 14, so you deal 26 damage to it. Nice. Smack him. Smack him fucking hard. He does not like that. I assume that's going to get angry at me.

  • Okay, can I assume it's your turn?
  • Yeah, I'm not gonna do anything else at this point. I'll just take that as a very good hint and I'll say, okay, and then wait.
  • Yes, here we go.

Um. I'll go with that sacred flame one more time. At 13, so it's safe. And I'll go ahead and do that help action again, get some advantage going if successful. Is it familiar? Now it's the mount's turn. I assume that's your turn, yeah? Yeah. I'm going to see if it notices that that damage came from behind it. It does not. So it's going to continue to do what it did before, and it's going to take its tendril attack against Jables, and he's going to try to engulf you again. Okay. DC 15. And he misses Jables this time. The only reason I said for the over 20, I do have 21 AC right now. Oh, yes. Yes. Yes. Which I know is a lot. You tried to make it a lot. We did this on purpose. Six. You are engulfed. So you are now pulled inside of the shambling mound. Yep. And you are essentially grappled. But this grapple is also going to impose blind and restrained. We know you're a disadvantage on deck saving for attacks of disadvantage enemy attacks everything and Blind and restrained are super similar. Yes. Like, the only extra thing blind adds is you can't see. Yeah, automatically availability checks without quaresight. Exactly. Are these put on just me? And, like, could I telepathically see through my familiar? You can using your action still, yes. You're the only one who's a ghost. But I could do that with their action if I needed to. With my failure's help action. I think read, because I think you actually have to use an action or a bonus action, if it doesn't specify it's a free action, to impose control over it. When you're out of combat, usually it doesn't matter. You can do that kind of stuff for you. So what I'm reading for 5.5e is the familiar gets an action, a core combat action on the turn, like its own turn. that it can do help, deliver touch spells, dash, disengage, hide, and interact with objects. It can mimic, it does mimicry, has high mobility, flight and scouting, and just that there's no attack action. So based on my read, the telepathy is persistent and the Familiar gets its own action independent of the actions of, which is like how I've been doing the help actions. Yeah. It's a bonus action as well, but you can telepathically communicate with it freely. So that's my answer there. Yeah. If you wanted to see through its eyes, though, and hear what it hears and take over its perception for a moment, that's a bonus action. Okay. Sounds good to me. So it could just tell you what's going on or if you wanted to do the bonus action. You can continue to freely tell it, like, do X. The familiar spell is just so good. But that is going to be its turn, so it now has that happening to you, and that takes it to Jables. And I still have advantage from that last... from what you did on your familiar last time, right? Yes, because the familiar would still be doing its... So does Bless automatically break here or do I have to do like a save to keep it going? Not too much damage. Oh, nice. Nice. Nice. That's where I went to the stats before. I was like, oh, what happened? I was like, oh. I need to run the restaurant real quick. 20. Would have been cool. Would have been cool. It's going to be 18 to hit. That is. I'm thinking about just throwing out a smite this time, but like... God, I've only got so many. I was surprised at how much damage I did without hitting. That was such a... That was a very good, lucky hit. Do I have to declare smite before my damage roll? When do I have to declare my smite? You know what I mean? Immediately after I hit? Like, before I roll my damage for my attack? I'm just curious. I've never... Because I know, like, I have the spell written down, which is just, it's a bonus action, you know, after a hit. So I assume it would be before I did anything else, but... Mine is fine. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That is the one I'm using. Must be declared immediately after you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack. Yeah. That's what I thought. That's what I thought. That's what I'm thinking before I roll this damage. So we can have these two in, so he makes the hit before he uses it. Immediately upon hitting, he's using a bonus action, right? Yeah. That's what I thought. What? Oh. Oh, choices. I'm going to sit on it for now, I think. Okay. So you're just going to do regular damage? Just regular damage. Hit me with that regular damage. Three. Three. Three sessions. Three, three, three. Because I rolled a goddamn one. Damn. You hate to see it? See, but I hate to see it even more if I was using a fucking spell slot. That would also have been... My turn. Just back to the plain old... Air shot? Yeah, sure. What did we get here? 13. That was with advantage and blessed? Oh no, I did not use blessed. 13, blessed, and that was with advantage, but add 3, so... 16. That hits. Nice. So I'm talking about, and then it's still the sneak attacks, so it's an extra d6. My third round, which that's good. That brings me to six plus two, eight damage. Ojo Damone, very good, very good. Okay. I see that's your turn. Yeah, I'm just going to stick with it. Did anybody take damage while it was gone, right? No. Going to take a little bit of damage on the start of your turn, Iridil, because you are inside of this thing. 17 lightning damage. What? You take 17 lightning damage at the start of your turn because you're inside of 60. And there's nothing I can do about that? It's just like, I just take the damage? Do you have like lighting absorption? No. It did roll back. No, you said a little and I saw how many dice you picked up. I was like, that's not gonna be a little. Uh, so, how did death saves work? Uh... You're unconscious? I'm at zero. Okay. What was your max health? Seventeen. Damn. You don't have any kind of reactions to absorb, like, elements? Is it true? I have necrotic and radiant defenses. I have, I don't, there's like herbalism kit tools. Absorb elements would be a spell. For spells I have, I have good berries, healing word, speak with animals, thunder wave. Reduce flame, sacred flame, spare the dying, thorn whip, and light. Cool. Well, you're going to be making me death saves on the beginning of your next turn. Okay. So... So we see Eridal go unconscious, huh? Yes. Will you be able to see the parts of his body that are not inside of the Shambling Mound? Or like... Shit. Oh. He gets, as he gets gotten pretty badly by that. Does his familiar get to do anything? Yeah, his familiar still have turns. It's last command that it was given by you is to like attack this thing or help action this thing, right? Then it would continue to do that. Well, that's useful. Yeah. But you won't have to do anything right now. It'll be on your next turn. And you'll keep them... To yourself. Exactly. Which I think passes above 10, fails below 10, right? Yes. Is 10 a pass? It's a pass, right? Yes. 10 or above is a pass? Yes. I'd have to look it up. So I keep whether they're a pass or a fail from everyone. Yeah. I mean... I track it. If you fail three times, you should go very slow. But if I fail three times, then... Yes. Well, I figured that was the case. Or if I pass three times. If you pass three times, you stabilize. If you fail three times, you die. Or if someone comes and attacks you, it's automatically two failures. Okay. All right. Yeah. I assume that's my turn. That is a point. Here is a point. Thanks to the is going to take its attack against you, Jable. Cool. That's 12. Negative. All right. That takes it to Jables. Am I within touching range? You could, you could like... Okay, well first I'm gonna swing at this thing. One of his legs are like hanging out? While I've got the advantage. I'm guessing I don't have bless right now. Negative. You gotta ask. 18 to hit. It's gonna be six slashing on the motherfucker. My bonus action. I'm going to do a Lay on Hands to give Iridel And I can really hold this a couple ways because even just giving him one will stabilize him. Right? Can you go negative? Yes. So like technically I shouldn't know that he's just at zero, correct? Yeah, no, he can't go negative in that way, but you can take damage that. I see what you're saying. Okay, so I'm going to give him one then from my lay on hand. I'll give him one. I'll keep on that. What, what, you want me to give him five? You give him all five? You saw him take damage at the beginning of his turn. Oh, well... Considerable amount. He's gonna take damage again. Oh my god, the save! You take him to one! Saves him from doing a death save. Got a few of those, you know? Matter of fact, attacks you. Oh right, yeah, 'cause it's two. What happens if you're stabilized and it takes damage? Same thing myself. We're going to cross that bridge. And what would be the proper way to communicate that in the future? Because obviously, I gave the specific numbers because I'm still new, but the party wouldn't know that, those specifics, right? Like what specifics? Like when I go unconscious. You can definitely say I got knocked unconscious or like I was bloody or things like that. Like, yep, I'm down. Or yeah, I'm unconscious. Definitely something you can say, really, if you are unconscious. Cool. Now... I just didn't know how the mechanics worked on it initially, so that's why I wanted to... I thought 17 was going to bring you down. I got two sixes and a five. This is brutal. It's because of all those dodges I got earlier today. I was astounded. I was like, oh my god! It was brutal. Why? The number was like... Minimum three? Now I can really metagame it? Thank you. Damn it. Fucking stupid. That's fucking... I don't like that. You think he's going to take minimum damage? Am I able... How much is a regular health pot? Do I have to use an action though to give him one? It would be an action. Potion is a magic item. As a bonus action... I was telling her not to Google it. I have it right here though. What is it? As bonus action, you can drink or administer it to another creature within five feet of yourself. The creature that drinks the potion gains 2d4 plus two. 2d4 plus two? Yeah. And it is a bonus action, not a primary. It's written on there. It says, bonus action, I can give it to someone within five feet. You can look it up. I don't know. That's what it said on his DMV me on. Okay. Yeah. Of course, ultimately, it's your fault. Well, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the other. That's just news to me. I mean, potions are one of the things that's changed the most. The source on this one is Dungeon Master's Guide. I believe you. What were you saying about the potions? I'm gonna give Java a motherfucking healing potion. Well, you can't see it's a heaven. Huh? Because that's not in there because it would be suffocating. So you would be able to... I'm gonna ask how about anybody else want that last burger patty that's in there? Because if not, I'm gonna snag it. I'm good. So then he can roll this 2d4 plus 2. Do you want to roll that? Uh, I don't know. I mean, it's his health, you know? Who do you want to roll it? You are the one administering it to me. So you want me to roll it? That's all you got to say? That's all you got to say? What are you rolling? Your health, for the health question. Oh, please. Great, that's five. That would have been the maximum I could have given you if I lay on hands anyway. That's why I had one of the health potions. And now we can pray. So that brings me back to five, right? Yes. Yeah, pretty funny. I hate shambling, man. So much. Shooting that bitch. I expected as much. Shooting that bitch right now. Still blessed, so two rolls, top of the two, and then whichever, and then the thing, so 18 plus... 18 definitely hits. 18 plus two. It's still a sneak attack, right? Because they didn't figure out that I was getting attacked. So, one, two. Seven plus two, nine. Nine, nine. It's bloody. It's bloody. If a plane could be bloody. In fact, it was bloody like an attack or two ago, but we're just going to gloss right over that. Other stuff was happening. Now you guys would really know this is bloody. Why do I have a feeling it's just going to shock our man unconscious again? Shock who? Our man unconscious again. The odds are not in his favor. I'm going to be real honest. I know. Five health on three D6s. But they can't do enough to just kill him with it right there. That's the nice part. It would have to also swing on him and waste his death saves and stuff. Exactly. Yeah, if I do the average, he goes down. You would have to really want to kill him. You'd have to be like your full job. Do I? Do I? I don't know. You might. I don't know. I think those shadows would have... You might want to send a message. I don't know. If I wanted to kill Jabba, those shadows would have done it. I don't have them. Oh, yeah, have them all just do a sneak attack before... Exactly, take your fucking strength all the way down to zero and just kill you outright. I love that. I love that. What an enemy that is. They just put level twos against that. The grips are fun. The first one y'all ever fought was also, like, I was reading that stat block, like, God! Does what? Yeah, they don't fuck around down here. I'd like to take a little bit of something from you. You know, I like it. Yeah, I've read that this is a good beginner campaign. Here they are. They're just like, hey, by the way, you can fucking die in this game. It's a real introduction. It teaches you not to be too attached to your character. This is true. This is true. So, it is your turn here, Dom.

  • You hit it, nice.
  • Did you already do the bullshit?
  • No, I was waiting until he sat back down.
  • How do the mechanics work on, so your health can only go to zero.
  • Well, you're at five right now.
  • Well, the way it works is that-- - I'm just trying to make sure I understand the mechanics of it.
  • When you go to zero, you start making death saves. Now, if there's an instance where, let's say for example, if you had five health max and you take 10 damage, Like turn, you like that.

So like if you were to take 34 negative, since you have 17. Okay. So that's the only instance you have to worry about. Yeah, if you go, sorry. Okay. Since I know you know math, if you go double your health negative, then you're done. There's also some spells like disintegrate, where like if it reduces your health to zero, it's in the text of the spell, like you just turn to dust. That's something similar to the specter. But there's some crazy shit like that too. Let's see if you don't go down because of this. And also like that whole constraint has been reduced to zero. I rolled two twos and like that's not looking good for you already. Yeah, because the next one has to be a one. It is a one. Oh, so I go limp. I wondered if I had just rolled one one instead of two twos. You have to roll almost in your main thing. Almost. But not in your main thing. I might have rolled one more on the... So you go down. The familiar does the same thing. It takes it to the mound. The mound, for 20, it doesn't have like a bite down attack. It just says 10 growths. It's a shame. It is going to attack 14. No, it's not going to hit. So it misses the attack. Jason to James. If I don't quit, I'll figure something out. I don't know why I wrote that. Wishful thinking. I missed. That's an eight. Okay. Yes. Use a spell slot to do Cure Wounds on Iridel. Oh, excellent, excellent. 2D8 plus my charisma modifier. Hell yeah. Eight plus seven plus three is going to be 18. Nice. Nice. Nice. Nice. Beautiful. I put my hand on him. I fucking heal him to full. I look over to the plant. I'm going to have to go back to that well. 19. I hit? I forgot to add that. Still a hit. We're not blessed right now anyway. It's a sneak attack. Ooh, 10 plus 2, 12. Nice. Nice. Looking good. Iridel. You get to take a turn, maybe. Is, uh... Do you still have to... Yes. Are they bloody? The plant is bloodied. The plant is bloodied. It's been bloodied. And you take ten. You're alive. I am alive. He's up. He's bloodied. She's bloodied. She's up. She's bloodied again. She's up. Oh. You got any good stuff? Now is the time. I don't really have much. I guess what I got is Sacred Flame, Dex save. It roll. Yes, it wants me to do it in real life. Three. Trace. Trace radio. All right. And I'll produce flame. That takes it to the mound. You're still doing the help action. Excellent. It's going to 26 the attack against you, so I'm pretty sure that's going to hit. Seven. Then it's going to deal the seven bludgeoning and six lightning. Okay. I am bloody. And then it takes it to you, Jibs. I'm really happy with this thing. But at least I get advantage on it. I wrote two 13s. That's a 15 to hit. Glancing blow. Glancing blow. Half of three. And I'll lay on hands myself for my five. Okay. I'm still bloody, but... Let's see if you can do the final blow on this thing. My little sister was hoping she would be able to feed my cat, but... It's not the case. We could end here... We could end probably right after the battle if we finish it soon. But also, I could just give her dry food from her automatic feeder from right here and not worry about it. I'm thinking about doing that. There we go. The future. The future is now. She usually gets wet food, but... It's been a weird weekend. She's been getting weird. She likes the dry food better anyway. You guys want to watch on the camera on my phone when I send it out? Sounds adorable. Yeah. Yep. Cool. Yes! She likes the dry food better than the wet food, but she eats the wet food. What's weird is I found she'll eat the wet food better if I open the can directly in front of her and then hold it in my hands while she eats out of it. Otherwise, she won't touch it, mostly. But do it that way, and she'll eat, like, the whole can out of my hands. It's ridiculous. It's that bonding moment, man. Anyway. I don't want it, but. I'll see you here. Exactly. I will go ahead and roll twice. Highest is 13. And then we're not blessed right now, right? Right. 13, unfortunately, does not... Don't you add your dex to it? Or is there like a 13 on the dice or something? Well, it was 13 and then it... It adds a plus four, I think. So that was your weapon attack. Yeah. Well, damn. Sorry. If it hasn't noticed me still... I don't want it to necessarily notice me, but if it's close to dead, I'm considering moving closer. Give it one more if you want. Super afraid. One more round of Irredale getting shot. I'll just hang out. I'll just take my shot and hang out back here. I've done pretty good so far. I'll take a miss. Yeah, bring it. Bring it. I just don't have any gas. You'll know when I tell you what happens. I'm sorry. I need a mess, so I think you're at seven. Okay. There's nothing else I can do much. No, it wasn't. Yes, it was a six on one of them. Oh, my God. And then a two, so. Yeah, I'm knocked out. You want to take it to the mound? I take it to the mound. Are they attacking me? It's attacking the bucket. With disadvantage. At least you're not having a real good time. Because of luck, I'm sorry. So it misses. You got two tens? Uh, Jables. And I assume the familiar is doing the same thing. Oh yeah. It's trying its hardest, you know? It's watching me go in and out of consciousness. I finally got the net toy. I'm smiting the fucker. Love it. Make up for my miss. You're about to say it better. Thank Christ. There's no way. You can roll me and give me the complete damage just to see. Just to see? I'm pretty sure. So the sword damage... The 16 on the sword damage and... Dog shit roll on that, but it would still be 19 on the smite damage. So what? 35 overall? Okay. You obliterate this thing. It deserved it. At least I got in there and did a good first hit because that miss was... Nice job, y'all. Nice. Did you do the shame like that? Now we gotta tend to Iridel. Yeah. Yeah, Iridel's not... So what are you guys gonna do immediately? Because Iridel is gonna make me at least one death saving throw as you guys start pulling her out of the shambling mouth. Pray to the gods for level three on me. I will say, if we're able to do this next little bit, and if y'all get out of the house... So... We could always take a... One of the health pockets out of... Oh, yeah. I'm sure they would be fine with us rummaging through them. Yes. So you're able to easily pull Iridel out, rummage through her pockets, and, like, chug one of the... Do I have to roll the... Can he roll it this time? Yeah, if you're administering the potion. You give it to him. I've got bad hands. What am I rolling for that? 2d4s. 2d4s? Alright. Yeah, I mean, that's okay. There's a little B4 right there. Let me see. I don't even know how to read these. One's easier to read than the other. I missed the other. That one's four. I'm sorry, three and two, five. Plus two, so seven. Seven, okay. No, it was way better than what I rolled. Yeah. Cool. Because I rolled a one and a two, so he had five. Thank you. That was a rough one. You got very unlucky getting engulfed. Mm-hmm. You know, it could have been worse. It could have been worse. That first shot of mine, I missed that very first one, but that first one that actually connected was cool. If I could have crit like two rounds earlier, three rounds, four rounds earlier... And on top of yours. You can feel the atmosphere of the entire dungeon change. You feel very cold and very sad as you kill the shambles. So all the shadows, all the shadow people are gone? Gone. I'd stand in the middle and yell, are you not entertained? Are you guys going to go to leave? I'm going to say, yeah, if there's nothing else, we can't, like, pull anything valuable out of this fucking shambling mound. As usual, the shambling mound is probably just made of gross shit, yeah? It's refuse. You guys took a look in there, it's refuse. Cool. Yeah, I'm cool with getting the fuck out of here, because I'm pretty sure we've thoroughly investigated everything down here. Fuck that ring. Fuck the ring. Yeah. So, I assume that you guys are going to go back to the upper dungeon, of course. Mm-hmm. And from here, you would take... Yeah, or we could even just go up to the wolf room. From here, you would know the quickest way. Instead of going all the way up and having to descend all three staircases from the attic, you could easily go to the den from right here. So I assume that's what you're going to try to do, yes? Yeah, that's the plan. All right. We're done with doing-- Sorry. As you guys head to that floor, you are going to see that there have been a few architectural changes since you were here last.

  • Sounds pretty dope. You know why?
  • The room now, I know, it's funny, I could have turned it off if I had anticipated y'all actually going into this, but I got very high. But this room now, instead of being the very calm, clean den that you were in before and rested in, The fireplace is now billowing black smoke. And we are going to actually enter an initiative count. As you guys attempt to leave the house, and it tries to kill you on your way out.

Good news, you guys are pretty much right at the exit. We don't really have to roll initiative because it's just the house at the end. But we're going to go, and y'all are going to declare where y'all are at here. Because there's going to be things that happen if you're in turn in certain spaces. My house is about to try and kill me, dude. I don't have anything, bro. This house is going to kill me. So y'all would start right here. And you would have your full turns to do and declare what you're doing as you're leaving. You would also notice that instead of the doors being there, they are now slashing scythe blades. So you're in a room full of Poisonous black smoke as well. You're able to take... You're able to take your full turn. You won't take damage from the smoke until you end your turn inside of the smoke. So, who wants to go first? That did answer the question. You guys can decide amongst yourselves who wants to go first. Or we can do it by decks. I'm not able to walk back into that hallway and take a short rest and use some hit dice. Right now, if you guys wanted to take a short rest before we did this, take a short rest. I'm for a short rest. I'm 100% for that. Yeah, let's do that. Or this house might kill me. It might kill me anyway. Same. Same. Doesn't really make a difference for me, of course. I've been staying so far out of the way, I don't want to get hit at all because any kind of one hit from that thing probably would have killed me immediately. It was doing a lot of damage. It was doing like 12 damage on average. Yeah. What are the rules for the heal? So it's whatever your hit dice are, and you have two of them. So yeah, I think it's eights for you. Can you regain all your hit dice on a long rest? Which we haven't short rested since our last log in. Cool. All right. So now that you all have had a chance to roll your dice-- Then you add your con modifier to whatever you roll as well.

  • One, two, and then two, so 11.
  • Well you get to add it to both of them. So nine and four. - 13. - Yeah, yeah. 'Cause you don't have to use all your dice, each one's a different, you know what I'm saying? - Mm-hmm. - The cool thing about the hit dice during the short rest.
  • So, who's going first now that y'all have been able to regain your health? Move yourselves where you can go, it roughly does translate square-wise. Um.

And the doors are sides? Yes. Where you just dragged to, basically. Yes. What about windows? What are the windows look like? Windows are boarded up and bricked up. And bricked up? Like I can see in between the slats, I see bricks. That's not cool. Yeah, my first thought was definitely check for the windows first, but then the fireplace is billowing the smoke. There's not really much we can directly do about that. We don't have anything in there. I don't know what's going on first, but... Yeah, yeah. - Anybody dying to go first? Not particularly, but I will if we need to. Same thing, just so I can tank some of the booby traps if need be. How long did it take us to get up here after fighting the fucker? I'm done with this. Wait, what was the question? Which one? No, the one that was answered not very long. How long it had been since we fought the guy, but we took a short rest, so it's been 30 minutes. Getting back on short rests yet except half of it's fine. Yeah, I can go first if y'all want. It don't matter to me. Yeah, I'm kinda at a loss what to do. I will cast Guidance on myself, uh, 'cause that seems like one of the most helpful things I can do for myself right now. And then... I'll start moving. So we can check this bitch out. Is the whole room filling with smoke or is it just mainly right around here right now? Did it's poisonous smoke, toxic smoke? Yep. You're not feeling good about the smoke? Not feeling good about the smoke. I'm going to move a bit, start triggering some stuff. You don't really want to fuck with the dives. I don't remember if there's anything useful in there, I bet everything's changed. Move to about here for now. Promise action-wise, I can't, will you let me move anything in the room, or what's, uh... Are you not gonna try to just run straight out? What, straight into the fucking sights? I mean, they're, like, swinging back and forth, but you could probably jump through it. Okay. Well, I had a different, I had a different idea of it. Yeah, I was imagining, like... No, like... More like a Okay, so the classic like the classic fucking blade beyblading the entrance like I was like, oh That's about as far as I can go right there you I give myself guidance That way I have a d4 for my next minute you are going to take a DC 10 Constitution say it though. Guess what? I've got guidance. He's going next. What is-- oh, is it just damage? Yep, seven points of damage. Oh, OK. You guys make this mad dash out. Do you have an idea of what you want to do? I'm still thinking a little bit. Okay. Yeah, now that I know that fucking... Yeah, no, I was going to say, I'm going to... I've got a question that I want to ask you. Yes. Is there a potential that I'm short enough that I'm underneath the smoke that's filling the room? No, unfortunately. Oh, damn. I was like, maybe I could be underneath it and... No, I'm not safe for that, no. Okay. Um... I'll just go ahead and go. Um... Through the middle of stuff, I'm just gonna... I would just go through directly this way as I would go through. And I have 30 feet. How much is each square? Five. Five? You have roughly... You can get exactly where your buddy is because you have the same movement. If you want to dash, you'd be through the doorway and all the way out the doorway. Okay. So... You can dash to use double your speed. I just used it. Yeah, so I would get here and then I would be watching the timing of the thing and then dash to get through the blades. Okay, as you action dash, you walk up to the blades, make me a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw. Okay, would that just be clicking on this one over here, I guess? So it gives me a plus four, so 20 with the plus four. You pass and pass through the blade doorway without incident. Nice. So from 30, 5. That is this that you pressed? 15, 20. That would be like right there. So you could get in here and you would be able to see that all of these, actually these two are also. Same thing? Okay. The last one's on. Fine. I will call that out to everybody, too. It looks like all the doors are like this. I'll say that out loud so everybody knows. Because the room you're in currently, I'll go ahead and move this guy over a little bit. There is also a fireplace in this room, so you will have to still make me the DC-10 Constitution saving throw. Okay. I got 20. Nice. You do not take any damage from the poison. You are good to go. Yes. So, Iredel, what are you doing? Making the dash? Do you have a bonus action dashing as well? I kind of, now that I know that there's, you know, bladed doors all the way across, I'd like to kind of investigate this area over here to see if there's any other egress that might be Available. Yeah, because you can see there's some... Because if I can bypass those by getting through here, that would be ideal. So, as you use about half your movement to come right here to really get a good look at this interior wall, you'll notice that the exterior walls are like solid brick, but the interior walls at some points seem like rotted. Okay. Do I know which points? Like... like it all seems sad we could even is this an exterior wall these are this so exterior

  • Yeah, 'cause if that other, yeah, I see what you're getting at. If that corner area is still considered inside, then there would only be, is this, you said all of these doors, does that include this? - Not this last one, 'cause this is like a hinged gate. - These are big wooden doors.
  • Oh, okay. - So this is the main door, and then this is the door to this foyer, whatever you call this.
  • So what would we be able to? Like, does this count as interior wrongs?

I'd say that would count as interior. I want to swing my staff at this. This section right here. You need your full movement to get all the way to the corner, and you're going to swing your staff? Yep. All right, let me read something real quick. Maybe I can just dash right back through that one and not have to deal with going through the others. Okay, roll me an attack roll. 6-7. Three. No, you need to do 20. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, for success, for attack. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. 13. Yeah. So now we're on the damage as well. But it will be double damage because you're attacking. But that is just enough to actually break open this section of the law. Thank you. Thank you. But I'm out of movement, so I can't pass through it yet. 18. And you're good. And so that was everyone once. So now everyone make me their decisions again. I see him breaking that wall and that sounds awesome. So it's like 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 to get over here. Is there already a hole? Yes. Like I can just finish busting through it by just running through it? Yes. Because then it would be 30 to get right here. I could dash out. But I mean, can I hold my dash as I wait for my friends? Wait and dash out with them? Yes. Like how I would hold an attack? Sure, yes. Yeah, I don't want to leave them behind. It feels like a bitch if I leave them behind. You finish busting through and you're basically standing in the hole like, come on, guys. So Jables has effectively escaped the house alive. What are the other two doing? For my turn, I'm basically, I mean, I came over here to check this. I've heard what's going on here. I don't want to run through to you. I'm gonna take my chance with just one and I'm gonna... Run action dash? Yeah, I'm gonna do the dash. Can I do the rest of my movement after the dash? So dash through and then, yeah, that's what I'm gonna do. Yeah, so make me the deck saving throw again with advantage because you just passed through that same door, right? Okay, so run through two. Two of these throws. Let's see what happens. Good thing. I got a nat 20 on the second roll. Right through that shit. So yeah, I'm as far as I can go. And I think I can get out the door because I've got 30 feet. Yeah, I've got 30 feet. I go through the hole that I made that everyone else already went through. You guys successfully bust out of the house and you are going to see it actually catch on fire and like burn down to the ground almost in kind of like an odd magic like way too fast kind of deal. Yes. Cool. Cool. Glad we looted as much as we did. I wonder if we can still sell the land with that deed. Most of the loot that you took, like for example the fancy jewelry from like the coffers in one of the bedrooms, that stuff immediately ages to dust. Dang. The only things that don't are the magical items, the potions, the spell book. Unfortunately, all the regular books that you took also turned to ash. The leather-bound ones that were blank don't turn to ash. And then that golden-- actually, no, you haven't turned that gold green. That did not turn to ash. But you guys would level to three. And upon leaving the house, you would also go unconscious Fall to the ground after that ordeal. And we're going to call it there. Good job, guys. Good job. There was a real threat of y'all dying if you even tried to go from the attic all the way down and having to pass through all those doors and all those rooms. So we'll just deal with all the level-ups stuff next time. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Hopefully you guys like this. It's been fun. So confirming the deed to the house due to the windmill. Moss agate. So the stuff is. So the stuff that you looted from the dungeon sting, but anything that you had looted from like the house itself, like any jewelry you had taken from any of the bedrooms and stuff like that. Okay, so we still have the ivory hairbrush. Yes. Okay, yeah. I have no idea. I haven't been keeping track of that as well. We'll be able to sort that out as well. Good job, guys. Didn't let yourself get shambled or shadowed or gassed in or... Yeah, fuck those shambling mounds, bro. It was pretty close. It was some good teamwork for sure. Good teamwork, some good lucky crits and stuff like that too. What level were we when we had those three shambling mounds after us? Were we level three or... It was somewhere between three to five. I have no idea. It was devastating. Why a little up? Multiple shambling mounds at that level? Jeez, man. - Not enough, yeah. - That'll, not enough. - Shambling mouth.

  • That doesn't look awesome to you?

fun to deal with pretty cool from like design perspective objectively not involved with it directly yeah i get that i get that found out as a fire breathing dragonborn that fire didn't do much against yeah yeah at least you're right about that welcome back mother They weren't lying about the monster in the basement. They were not. That's what I was saying. Everyone was like, well, yep, checks out. They were actually right. We were so angry at them. We were like, where's lying gets? Lying to us? Like, these kids are bullshit. I got very close to killing you. You tried real hard. I did. I did. You didn't die. You didn't die. You were friends. Jesus Christ, my house is cold. Your food was excellent. It was delicious. Thank you so much. Yes, yes. We needed a plane until 8. The movie was crazy. Well, not crazy because it had like a plot. I guess it wasn't, I didn't realize horror movies had so much of a plot. Like, there's a lot of plot with this movie. Some do say, no. They promote Evil Dead, which is not the kind of movie this was, thank goodness, because that's what it would have been. But they had people in, like, bunny costumes, and all of a sudden you go, bang! Just, you know, the one shot. But that didn't make me... Move everything over to this new virtual tabletop, which is what we used to play online a lot. But Eric let me use his account to make this right here. And as you can see, it's a tool that allows me to actually have lighting and control vision, I guess, a bit more accurately. Make doors, make walls. So I'm not just removing boxes. And one note. It also allows me with my WAC to actually move. That's pretty sexy. Yes. And if anyone, I guess everyone with a laptop here, technically I could invite and y'all could run this on your laptop. I could make you your own person and you can move it as well to control your own visual perspective. But we're not there yet. You're not there yet. But yes, y'all would find yourselves still after this long rest hanging out in these groups. What would y'all do? A lot of the cryptos. Because we did a couple of double backs a little bit. We went one direction and saw that there was a room, and went back another direction and saw there were more rooms. We definitely did. I get to give myself an inspiration. Because I'm a human. When we get a long breath. Yep, yep, humans are OP that way. They should still have their inspiration. They gave them when we did some singing. Some instrument playing. Singing. - Body burning? - Well around the neck. Um. I guess I need to give Jables the ability to see. Yeah. Yeah, so I need to cast it on an item. Because it is worn out. It is... 20 foot radius and dim light for an additional 20. I got 20-20. So I did put the light in here correctly. So I'm doing 20 foot dim or 20 foot bright. We immediately editing the scripts in order to continue to explore. I think so. I think that was our plan. We really just needed the rest because we needed to like... We needed the health. Yeah, we needed the health and all that kind of deal. We've just backed around a little bit. That was hot. I think we go to the right. To this way? That's my boat. Yeah, I know that. Because it was the other direction we went first, right? Yes. Yeah. Yeah, because this is where we went up and we just kind of looked and we were like, nah, let's turn back for a second. So yeah, I agree. Let's go this way. So as you come right about right here, I'm just using this thing. Everyone give me perception. Oh, I didn't bring my dice. I forgot to get mine out. Oh. 14 14 still not bad. 17. 17. So collectively, Jables and Iridell are going to notice that this room, like many of the other rooms, seems not to have been used in a very long time. It seems rather dilapidated as well. Gray is going to kind of also notice that the silence is very pronounced in this area. Other than, of course, the chanting that you've been hearing as you've been coming down in this dungeon, like this kind of rhythmic chanting that you can't really discern the direction from. But other than that, you're not really hearing the noises of other individuals. But you would find yourself in this room, which is a room with a wooden table and chairs. It seems to be like a meek living quarters. Tell me where you guys would go. Seems pretty open for the most part. You see a couple little doorway areas. Yeah, as you-- So which one would you want to look? I assume this one first, right? As you go and inspect this little alcove, you would see a moldy pallet. Yep, and you would see something similar in all these little alcoves, moldy straw pellets. Okay, so definitely. Kind of over there. If there were certain quarters above, these would be more like certain quarters maybe or something. That's my initial thought. Yep, and these cultists were not living ladders lives. What's around the corner? Because that was the whole thing, yeah. Yeah, so I guess this looks more like a... Yes, so, yes, this would lead you to another room if y'all are just continuing on. Yeah, I don't see any reason to really inspect any of it right now anymore. So as you guys would head in this room, you would immediately see a well in the middle of this larger room. And everyone give me a perception check once again. That's a six. 24. Damn. Something's blocking my perception in this area. I must have had a really good sleep. You must have not had a good sleep. There you go. Jables is able to tell that this room is similar to the last one, but Gray is able to really make out the fact that each one of these tiny rooms does look like kind of more... There is five of those. Do we want to go ahead and check out each of these little alcoves again? I'm kind of interested about the fountain in the middle. The well? Yeah, we'll check that out first. Maybe get a little closer to the well. Maybe peer in. I rolled a six, so I'll be the one to look. I have no idea what's going on. So you would notice that much like wells that you're used to seeing, there is a bucket hanging out. Thank you. inspect something more specific about this well i was just curious about the condition of it and also maybe looking down let's see if we can see the bottom down there see the bottom you can actually Yes, you can. You also have light cast right now. So you can see that looking down in the swell, it's only 30 feet from what you guys can tell is probably water. It's kind of hard to tell from this distance away. Yeah, when we drop the bucket. You're easily able to drop down the bucket and pull up a bucket of water. Is there anything interesting about the water? Is it a weird color? Does it have a weird smell to it? It's regular water. I drink some of it. You are now hydrated. Yes. Hydration is very important. I waited to see if somebody else would drink it first, and now that it seems safe, I'm also going to drink some. Mine as well. Anyone who wants to drink this well water is 100% able to. What's the worst that could happen drinking well water? Well, we all played Oregon Trail in my elementary school, right? You have died of dysentery. And is he dysentery? Oregon Trail is... No, why don't they... A-plus programming right there. I need to make my nephews play it. It's an important part of education. So, which one of these rooms are y'all venturing into first? I want to just go... Clockwise, top, counterclockwise. Yeah, I'm cool with that. As you go to this one, you're going to see this room contains a chest. Is it locked? It's not. There you go. You get 11 gold pieces and 60 silver pieces in a pouch made of human skin. How do you know it's human skin? Do we want to split up gold? Or do we want to keep it? Is it obvious? Is it hairy still or something? Yeah, it's like you can see someone's like hairline on this so it's like someone's a skelp. And they're skelps of the... Do we want to split the gold or do we want to stockpile it in one spot? Yeah, because we've got a lot of stuff that's just kind of in like a group thing right now, don't we? Like a lot of the books. Yeah, or group inventory. Anyway. - We got stuff to like maybe try to sell later and things like that too. - I still can't hear you.

  • A bag of holding.
  • I was also unsure what you said just a moment ago. Bag of holding makes more sense. Bag of holdings are bags of holding.
  • Is there anything else notable about the area or the bed or anything like that? Just that there was a chest and we got the stuff in it?
  • Yep.

I think we split up the gold. You can tell that the living quarters are in better condition. They are still very much like... This is a dungeon room. Melody, dank dungeon room. But you guys don't see too much other than that. So you can go straight to the next room after getting your pouch made of human skin. There was 11 gold and 60 cup. I guess we just put that in the team inventory for now? Yeah. Yeah, we'll see what all of these have. This room also has a chest. I'll see if you open it. If it's unlocked, I figure you go ahead and open it. It is. None of these chests are locked. This one contains three moss maggots folded in a piece of black cloth. Three moss egg

  • A-G-A-T-E. - Yes.
  • Okay. - Yes.

I know that because of video games. Warcraft. Is not cooperating with me. Much like the last room, that is pretty much all you're going to find. Pray tell me there's another chest in room three. Oh, well. You are in luck, Travis. This room does contain a chest, which as you go to unlock it, it is not locked. This one is going to contain a black leather eye pouch. Eye patch.

  • Too many.

This one has a carnelian sewn into it, but if you wanted to just put black leather eye patch, Dungeon Colt. And that, much like the last one, is pretty much all you're going to find in this chest. So this one has a chest unlocked, which is going to contain an ivory hairbrush with silver bristles. Why do these cultists have these things in these chests, you might be asking yourself. We'll never find a clue. Nope. Yeah, this one is, that's a little bit more... It's silver bristles. Silver bristles on an ivory hairbrush. Interesting. As you inspect this room further, you're not going to find anything else of note. And as soon as we go into the last one, so this one is going to contain a chest, much to your surprise. And this chest is not locked. This one is going to have a silvered short sword. The silvered means that it has some special properties against certain monsters? It will. It will. I'm pretty sure Iridil would know the implications of the silvered short sword. Yes. I can't touch the tip of that without it hurting. It would hurt you, I know. Do I notice anything else about it? Do I notice anything else about any of these items that we found? So I can have Iridil shed some light on that. What did you say? That I have to be very careful touching silver things because it hurts. You do. So as Iridil would. --is official fighting stuff. So Iridel would be able to tell you guys that some monsters have immunity or resistance to non-magical weapons, but are susceptible to silver weapons. So it's like lycanthropes, undead, a lot of different kinds of creatures from the void. So this is like a monster-killing weapon, in essence. Would it be effective against ghouls like we came across earlier? Yes. So werewolves, devils, spirits, and undead would be affected by these kinds of factors. That's what I kind of had in my head. I just wanted to make sure that I was thinking the right thing. So if you were to prick his finger, he wouldn't die, but he would be feeling more than a finger prick. Although you're not undead, you're just half vampire, so... Right. It just hurts more. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. It's like having an allergy. I could hold on to it. I was going to say, which one of us wants to hold on to that? Because either one of us could really make use of that. I would say maybe you, because you're just a sword man in general. What's your weapon proficiency? I was simple in martial. Which means you can use pretty much anything. What would the stats of the short sword be if I was swinging it? It's just the silver shortsword, right? It's a 1D6. Thank you. Are you looking at 5E tools? Uh, sources Dungeon Master's Guide, page 304. As long as we're looking at the same thing. I don't know if I'm looking at how we're supposed to reach. So reach 5 feet, 1d6, plus 1, piercing, weight 2. That makes sense. Just pulled it from the . I don't use the character sheet, so I don't have D&D ground for that. The other rooms, not a lot in this one other than this chest with this silver short sword. The same thing, tortilla chips and queso. Yes, yes. In fact, I was going to let it go to bowl because I do also have certain needs. And I'm fairly certain that that one is cash. It is not, actually. It's not? And I believe it is your hit, Travis. You hit this right now. I think so. Travis the bowler. It's a dangerous one though. The lewet? Yeah. Yeah. Very efficiently. I know. And he's also got a lot of room on the other side as well. Not at all. Not at all. laughter

  • I think to assume that short sword uses strength.
  • Do short swords? - Lead up. I should know more about short swords, but I don't.

Because that really will be the definer. If it uses dex, we'll give it to... It's got finesse, so I think you can juice. Oh, it does have finesse. Good thing about short swords. That's cool, because that also means we can pass it around. Precisely. Finesse weapon's huge. I suspected, I just needed to confirm. I had no idea. About the weapon properties? Well, yeah. So that one. Weapon properties are huge. Like the Vex. God, this is so neat. What is? The Vex. Giving yourself advantage on successive attacks against the target. Not gonna lie, I'm still having a whole lot of trouble picking my oath. It's coming up. It is, it is. You don't want help, do you? No. There you go. So I get to just watch you suffer. Well... Yeah, that just came in handy for me against those ghouls. Yes, yes. And you get to start doing arcane trickster stuff next fucking level too, so everyone starts to really feel the flavor of their classes. - I haven't tried your cookies and cream one yet, but it tastes really funny. - No, I haven't opened those yet. - Really? - I couldn't have my, so the ones that weren't bought when I went over to Travis's, that pretty much starts.

  • Still haven't finished this one, I'm about halfway on it.
  • Nice, nice.
  • But I was eating this hard all last, or not last night, the night before.
  • Yeah. I need to finish mine off too.
  • I went up to, yeah. I'm one of those kind of people where I can go up to Silo at 9 o'clock and stay literally until 2, so that's what I did by myself. I was there, there were like literally 10 people on the dance floor when I got there.

That's a good shit though, because you actually get to kind of like just vibe, and then you get to vibe assholes. And then as I started getting drunker, it started getting crazier, and it just worked out very nicely. Hell yeah. I ran into a guy who was friends with the owner. Back in like high school and college, or not high school, back in college days in New Orleans, because they both went to LSU and were frat brothers and stuff. So he knew him back in those days when he was doing underground reggae and shit like that. I dig that. I dig that. It was pretty cool. It was probably not going to taste great immediately after having spice and ketchup. You know, you're probably right. You're probably right.

  • Still tastes really good. I followed up immediately with the court.

You got to, right? You got to. I still haven't even had much chance or need to use my cantrips at all. Because mine are all just kind of weird. At least at this moment. The minor wonder things and then... Welcome back, welcome back. So, you guys finished inspecting this fifth room and you find yourself back in the main room. Like, goop in these fucking cultists a little bit. Just a snitch. Well, I just realized what I was putting my root beer on. That is definitely a dick in the heart. That's my favorite one. Because if you're not clued into it for, like, a second, it can definitely take a second to realize what the fuck you're looking at there. Good stuff. Surprise he came through with. Yeah, did not disappoint. I made it. Didn't want to grab your poker. Y'all going to continue on? There's only one way for us to go, right? There is. Might as well. As you guys walk down this hallway, let me confirm, I'm not pretty sure. I didn't get the gold and silver. How much did we find of that? 11 gold, 60 silver. As you guys mosey your way down, you will be able to see, kind of as the model says, you can peek in and see that the room that would be straight, I guess, to your left, seems to be that room with all the bones and signs of cannibalism that y'all had been in before. Okay, so that's the one where we went. What would be down looking on the map and we started running into it. Y'all haven't been down yet. Sorry, I'll head you down. Did we give somebody the short sword? I do believe that Jables took it because Vanessa loves him. Down this hallway, you're going to get to another crossroads, which is going to be familiar to you again. As you remember this as the hallway to your left, the one that you guys were attacked by ghouls in. And then there's a way down that you stop at. You will hear, though, from this way that y'all haven't been, the chanting will grow louder. So based on the way that thing's facing to our right, we're hearing the changing. If we're facing-- so yeah, so that-- You're hearing the changing from down here. OK, yeah. But then the other way, that's where we ran into the ghouls. This is where you guys had the ghoul party. Yeah, we didn't explore any of the other little outlets from there after that point. We just kind of immediately backed off, right? Yeah. Do we want to check out what was past the rules that way, or do we want to just keep going... Basically where we're hearing the chanting. I mean, we did find some goop. There might be more goop. There might be more goop. More ghoul goop. It sounds like y'all are going this way, yes? I'm going to look for ghoul goop. All right, y'all will walk over the corpses of those ghouls that you did see. find two directions. You can continue to go straight or you can go down. You haven't been either way, I do not believe this. Which one of the first two guys? Uh, I mean, we're already facing to the right, maybe. Alright, as y'all would find yourselves in this room, perception checks. 16. 12. 12. 4. Okay. So... That's a big money shot there, Trim. Thanks. This room is festooned with moldy skeletons that hang from rusty shackles against the walls. A wide alicove in the south wall contains a painted wooden statue carved in the likeness of a gaunt, pale-faced man wearing a voluminous black coat. Cloak. God damn it. His pale left hand resting on the head of a wolf that stands next to him. In his right hand, he holds a smoky gray crystal orb. This room exits in the west north walls. Chanting can be heard coming from the west. So back away, y'all gang. You are continuing to hear the chanting. So that was the only exit? Is that the way we came? No, so down here. I thought I was feeling down there. Is there anything about the statue of the guy that like, is it nostalgic in any way? Does it feel weird? History with the advantage. And with year 16 perception. Ray would be the only one to notice that there is actually a secret wall in this room. There's a secret wall. A secret tunnel. Me. That was, yes. Oh, God. So the advantage is I roll two dice and take the higher? Yes. Because of his backstory. 21. 21. Excellent. And it was a roll of 20 if that changes anything. It wasn't that 20? Yeah. It does. It does. So you would recognize this as strud. I'm high, and I just put a wall there. But you guys would be able to tell that in this area right here, you're able to push this kind of moldy clay in and reveal a secret chamber. Secret tunnel. Secret tunnel. And as you go in, you're going to see a very brief staircase that leads up to a hatch. So we got a couple options. Well, so I mentioned that that's Strahd to the group because I'm the only one that would have known that. Yes, yes, that is undoubtedly the likeness of Strahd. The statue? Yes. Okay, that's what I was wondering as well because I know we had heard that name and I was like, well, if he's a big figure, maybe that's it. We've seen him like in books, read you when you were a kid so you remember the pictures of his body. Very prolific figures. What else are y'all doing? Are you going to open the hatch? Do we want to check the hatch? Do we want to... What was the thing you said, Chris? Something about the statue? Since we recognize it, I guess we could walk closer and inspect it. Am I hesitant to touch the statue for any reason? Why would you be? Well, I mean, potentially based on that history check, you know, like what did it, you know, am I, am I concerned by what I remember of Strahd? You're deep. Well, you are, but not necessarily in ways that would make you scared of a statue of them. But you know, your stories were, weren't pleasant. Um, the stuff that you heard, it was kind of like almost the boogeyman. Um, He would take you in the dead of night. You would be trapped in his misty lands until he, you know, took your soul. But, you know, you know. Creepy. cough Is it a... Can we do a... Investigation? Yeah, investigation. Is that a real crystal orb, or is that also just like... Because you said the statue is like carved wood. It is. Yeah, give me an investigation to see if you can really take a good, close look at this crystal orb. Oof. Can I also... Yeah, you guys can inspect this orb. What's wrong with it? Investigation. 14. 14. Yes, you guys look better than me. With your two 14s, you would be able to tell that this is an actual smoky crystal or rather large. It's like the size of a cantaloupe. Take the word. Is it independent of the statue? Did you go to pick it up? That's a scary question. She was excited. Did I look excited? So more places to explore and everything too. Yeah, we can always come back. Let's go to Secret Tunnel. Secret Tunnel? Okay. Yeah, because it goes up to a hatch. It might go to something on the first floor. Because I'm Mokey Crystal. I'm supposed to know about all of the secret passages and stuff because I looked at the dollhouse. This one in particular, you wouldn't have seen, interestingly enough, because it actually didn't reveal anything about this dungeon or the basement. Exactly. Yeah, but I'm wondering if the secret hatch comes up in one of the other secret passages or something. It comes up in the middle of that werewolf den you guys experienced on the first floor. So you would find yourself back in like the very first floor of the house. Where you got all those crossbows. Okay, so a good way out. Yeah, a good quick way out. That's good to know. But since it just goes there, I figure we're just going back down, but we'll... I'll have mentioned, yeah, we'll... Oddly suspicious that there's an exit to the outside right from the statue. Oh yeah, from this close where all these people are chained up, it is a little... It's a suspiciously close access. There's a lot of suspicious shit in this fucking house and statue. Well, I'm gonna... And we know... Didn't we... Did we assume that that was the father's room? Well, yeah, it's like this study or something at least. Yeah, so it's going to be just me being the gray character is probably just going to out loud say, well, this is even just more evidence against the father. These are real good people. Lost their kids up to starve to death. People dying in their basement. Eight people. Where's the vampire lord life? Who wouldn't like these kind of guys, right? Like, they seem wholesome. It's kind of weird that they worship a vampire lord but have silvered weapons. That isn't a very interesting observation, is it? Oh yeah, and the hairbrush with the silver, that was just two of the people that were in that little area. Yeah. Why would they, though? I'm taking questions. I mean, I guess if you're hanging out with creatures of the dark, you got to protect yourself. I didn't think there was one in there. From here, we're probably just going to, do we want to go down and just continue exploring before we steal shit? You're listening to... I wouldn't say accurate, you know? It implies a lot. It is the implications though, right? Finders keepers really steal them. Question is the question. Yes, thank you. God is with you. Robert, are you grabbing root beer? Thank you, sir. Never mind, Jonathan. I gave you, or I gave him yours. You have been thieved. Yes, I know. We're going down the passage.

  • Not doing anything else in that room, right?
  • Yeah, maybe a little hesitant to steal the orb. I'm gonna just continue checking this out.
  • Okay, I like that. You're gonna turn this corner and there's gonna be a door. - What is your marching order? Like who would be first?
  • I mean, I should probably be, should be in the front.
  • Yeah, I'll probably be right next to you, just a little bit behind.
  • Okay. And I assume you're gonna go see if this door is locked?
  • Yeah.
  • Yeah, we'll check it.
  • Okay. As you go to grab the handle of the door, you are going to become adhered to it. Because this isn't a door, It's a Mimic. I told you!

I didn't hear anything about that. Mimics can be doors? What all can Mimics be in D&D and what I know? We're gonna handle that after this combat. Okay. You know, you make some rolls. We're just going to do this here? Roll the AC. Initiative? Yeah, initiative. Sorry, I'm already high as tits. Six. Six. Two sixes? Ten. always having bad initiative on our battles? I've had a good one, I think once. It's either really good or really bad. There's no in between from what I'm like, strength, personally. We have two sixes, and which one of y'all's dexes is higher? Mine's 13. 13. 15. OK, so I mean, that makes sense. We got a road. Mm-hmm. But-- except of the minute we don't know which girls we don't pretty simple creatures um but the most exposure i have to mimics was in a career which is basically just her getting her face like that and being chewed on while her butt jails in the camera in my defense i joked that it was a mimic because i thought there was no way it was a minute What's the worst that can happen, right? What was yours again, Jables? J-Bull's at the top of the round. You are effectively grappled by the skeptic. Right. - So it basically just works like grapples, so can I use my action though?

  • Yeah, athletics check.
  • Is that what it would be, athletics check? Can I use a luck point to get my self advantage?

You'll be making with disadvantage, so your luck point would make the roll right there. Yes. I'll just do it with disadvantage on the special. Sometimes you have disadvantage in life, you know, with a rapper. - Probably a 13. Oh yeah. Just enough. But you're able to pull yourself away from this mimic. That was Jack. It was. I should have let them down. Although I'm going to guess sacred flame is in action. Just um - Reaction spit on the mimic. - Okay. Reaction spit, excellent, excellent.

  • I guess I'll, I don't wanna give it an opportunity.
  • And it will take the opportunity to do that.
  • I know. I'll kinda just try to like, if I can, just hug the wall to be out of the way for, you know, the friends wanting to attack. Like I'll just have my shield, you know, which I'll-- - Okay. I don't have a bonus action able to dodge.

If that's your turn, that takes a degree. All right. Well, I guess-- Maybe I do a history check to see what I know about mimics before I start attacking. Maybe a history check. Let's see what I know. Oh, no. Nine. You know that they turn into things. And you now know that they adhere to people. Okay, cool. Is it still in the shape of a door? Yeah. But now is it like a door in the mouth or what? What is the door made out of? What material? It was like a dilapidated wooden door. Um, for right now, when it takes its turn, it'll take it, it'll do some stuff, but it looks like a door right now. And it didn't, like, bite you. It just, like... I was just... You were, like, glinting to it, but you were like, fuck! Like, right on the door. Like a Venus flying trap. Exactly. But, uh... Alright, well... Shit, maybe I don't want that time, and I don't know what to do. Um... You can have range attack it. Yeah, I've got the short bow, so I think-- since I know for sure it's a mimic at this point, since I've done a history check, I'm like, OK, so I guess this is a mimic. Yeah, I guess I'll just go ahead and shoot it with my short bow, just out of reaction, because I'm like, oh, a bad guy thing? Shoot, because that's great. So just roll for the hit. Yep. Roll me an attack roll. That's eight. This is unfortunate. perception check is really good. What do you use for the attack roll? Uh, this right here.

  • Be different too. Because, yeah, my spells don't have a thing like that.

I assume that's your turn on the bus? You're going to turn your off in? Well, my offhand is a dagger. I don't want to... I'll just take a really bad shot at a door and completely miss a door with my short bow. You accidentally hit the wall instead of hitting the door? Yeah, and I might back up a little bit because I've been having good luck with my ranged attacks so far and I don't know that much about mimics aside from making changes to things. You were the purple guy, right? I don't know which one was I. No, I was the... You were the red guy. Yeah, I think so. You're going to back up just a little bit? Yeah, so I'm going to back up to basically just as far back against that wall as I can be. There you go. You're able to do so successfully. Yeah, I'll just leave it at that for now and see how the rest of the fight goes so I can figure out what's going on. You're done. This seems to be my thing for now. So I just want to make sure that I understand before I decide what I want to do. So you can do one action, which is either an action or a spell, and then a bonus action. Is there anything else that you can do? Like a... But just those two things. You can do one action and one bonus action? In the short of it, yes. You can do reactions, but those you should have triggering effects to do. Right. Okay. Okay. It's like talking and some item interactions could also happen, but this is Okay, well I will use my thorn whip to attack. 21. So now I do the damage roll, right? Yeah. Five. And then for my bonus action, I do produce flame.

  • To my boy, the mimic. He is going to use one of his bonus actions and he's going to shape shift back into his true blob form. So it is no longer a door, it is actually now a blob. And then it is going to take an attack against Jables, who is the one still standing directly in front of it, yes? - Mm-hmm. - Okay. There we go, let's hit you with that roll.

That's cracking me up. So the first attack is going to be-- Swing and a miss, you know what I'm saying? Swing and a miss. Damn. Damn. Okay, so it's going to try to hit you with an attack. Or it did hit you with an attack. So you are, are you, you're medium, right? Human. What's human? Medium? Oh, your size. You're a medium-sized creature, right? I believe so. You are grappled. What's that like? It gives you a hug. It gives you the most painful hug of your entire life. And it's going to deal seven bludgeoning damage to you and five acid damage to you. Here's the description of grapple if that helps. Oh, I've got it. And that is going to be his turn. I'll be bloody. And that takes it back to you, James. At the top of the round. Oh, yeah, that's right. He was still getting picked. What size is the blob? ...to you guys. But a blob. Am I still considered medium? I'm not small? You're probably small. I think gnomes and halflings are small creatures. Yeah, I am small. I had to find it on here. Monster medium. I do not believe there are any innately large races. I'm not seeing any disadvantage to attacking him or anything. Him? I don't think. Are you trying to look up what grapple does? No, I mean I'm looking at what grapple does. Speed zero ends when they're incapacitated or when they move out of their reach. But like, I should still just be able to hit him with the sword that I'm holding, right? Yeah, 100%. Especially since he's like, yeah. I'm using the look point and I'm hitting him with the sword that I'm holding in my hand. I'm also going to use my Paladin Smite to Divine Smite him when I hit him. Yeah, it's funny that I grapple doesn't do a lot, but some creatures grapples also like Restrain and Incapacitate. That's when you're all fucked up. A long sword, we'll just do four. And then... How does a blob grapple if it doesn't have hands? Is it a fiend? Like on a water droplet? I don't think it's a fiend. It's like a... It blobs on you. Exactly. It's like a hug, except a painful hug. A hug that tries to kill you.

  • And 16. - 16? - Yup. - Wow. - I maxed it out. - That's what she's running for?
  • Let's get stuff, let's get stuff.
  • A spin arm again. It's bloodied this time, but it's spit nonetheless.
  • Would you be surprised to hear that the medic's into that? - I don't even care. It's about sending a message. Thank you. - Did you see Jables get grappled to bloody?
  • Yeah, I'm bloody, yeah.
  • That wasn't really a door that I have waiting for you guys in here.
  • But I slapped him for 20. How's he looking? He's not bloody? - No. - Cool.
  • He is being bloody.
  • Strange enough, was it blind?
  • It is. - All right. I mean, I guess at this point I'm just gonna continue with my shooting with the short bow, now that I'm a little further away and feel safer. What else did you expect from that at this point? That is a good move. I'll just do that first and see how that goes. Twelve.

That would be a glancing buff. Good afternoon. Three or two? Oh wait, no, does it... The plus two means you roll it twice? Oh no, no, sorry, yeah. It was five. It was a three and then plus two is a four. Leave it for three, so... Bam! Bam! Okay. Doesn't show the five on the screen. Yeah, because it says one do six plus two and then, yeah, get five. Excellent. Yeah, since it was glancing. Okay, that makes sense. Since it was glancing. Okay, yeah. That's your turn? Yeah, I guess I don't have anything else to do. I'll just call out. I was like, at least I hit that one. At least I kind of hit that one. I hit that one, guys. Ear though. We'll cast Healing Word on Jables. Good move, good move. I'm going to get an 8. Total. Can I help? Yeah. I'm not bloodied right now. I'm not bloodied right now. Do you have, like, 20 of them? Maybe. Maybe that's exactly what I have. Total. Is that what I'm back at too? No, but that is... That's all right. This guy's only trying to do like 13-ish damage to you per turn, but not 12-ish. Yeah, it could be immediate. Probably. Yeah, it's kind of what I feel. I was like, you know what? He can hold on to me. I'll be his ass. His teeth are right there. Especially since this is like surprisingly deadly. Find a mimic in the dark alleyway. Dark dungeon. I'm trying to see if there's anything else I can do. Oh, you healed him. Sorry, yeah. Sorry, sorry. I freaked out. I was like, wait. You didn't damage it. The Lord's work is what they do. Bonus action, right? Healing word is... It is a bonus action. Oh, it's a bonus action? It is. You can actually can't shift this motherfucker. Exactly. So you did take a bonus action last round to do produce flames. Yeah, so I'm going to throw that fire. Just right at the blob. You're going to do it with disadvantage where you're standing because you are with a fight. As you can see, I'm using my best possible menu right there. I mean, you can back up and not be disadvantaged, right? Yeah, I jump back 10 feet and throw my fireball, my flame. Thank you. Because this isn't a very large birthday yellow, right? It's a 1v8. What was your roll to hit? I have not rolled it yet. The VA, right? Mm-hmm. Well, you rolled a d20 to hit. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. And what does disadvantage mean again? You don't have disadvantage now. Oh, okay. Disadvantage means you roll two hits on the lowest. Okay. 17. Yeah, that hits. That definitely hits. Okay. Disadvantage is not nice. Six. Excellente. Six damage. Let me see. I did things. You did. Lots of things. That was a very productive turn it was. Everybody smacked him up in that round. Is bloody actually? It's bloody. It has or less, yeah. Pretty sure I've asked that before. Sometimes if I'm close to bloody but not quite, I'll joke around and say I'm bruised. It actually is. It is just bloody. Good. Just bloody to the last. - That is your turn, right, Jables? Or not Jables, you're down?

  • That would be the end of my turn, 'cause I took an action and a bonus action.
  • Yep, and that takes it to my boy, The Mimic, who has you grappled, yes?
  • Yeah, I'm grappled. - Nope. I just hit speed zero, he's holding on to me. Unless, yeah, unless he's got some flavor, you know, I don't know that.

I'm about to tell him. - Can he move with you grappled?

  • I don't know how that works. I wasn't bothering to look that up or anything. I imagine if he wanted to move while I was grappled, he might have to check the grapple again or something, I don't know.
  • He's actually mad that he adhered to him as the thing.

Interesting. No, he doesn't actually because that's his item form. He just has you grappled. Maybe in that athletics check. So it'll be tough to slow it down and move less distance. Terrible. A seven. A seven? He unfortunately, as he starts moving, is able to maintain the grapple. Going to hit his globular form. He's going to walk up and he is going to take a single attack against you, Irdil. As he's moving, can I, like, he's technically moving past me. I can do him. He's moving with you. So, like, you're moving with him. Can I not do an opportunity attack? No, um, If you would have gotten better on that athletics, you would be out of it. But you rolled Doctrine. There's nothing about I can't take opportunity attacks from grapplers. Well, you're not taking an opportunity attack. That's what I'm at. I mean, he moved past. If he was here, he was going to move in. No, you're moving with him. I just didn't move your mini. I get it. I get it. I can't put, like, you want me to put him in between your leg? I mean, the other way around? I can do that. Because that's essentially what's happening right now. Being... blob. That attack against you, Iridil, is a 23. So that's against my AC, right? Yes. That hits because it's a 14. That hits. Excellent. So that's going to be seven bludgeoning and five asses, and you are also grappled. Seven and five, so 12. It doesn't say he can't have, or he can only have one person grapple by this at a time. I can feel the liquid life leaving me. It's globular now. That's all you can do. So that's going to be his turn. That takes it back to you, Jables. I'm going to assume you're bloodied as well. Yep. I'm bloodied, decidedly. So are Jables and I like touching now? Like we're within reach. Yes. And capable. Because you're inside of the same blob. And it's funny that the blob is only medium-sized, so you would definitely be making contact. In my head, it's looking like a Dragon Ball Z Super Galaxy donut. Oh my god. Wait, so you're bleeding right now, teacher? Boo with one of his blocks coming off and wrapping around you or something. It is kind of like that. I love that. Let's get imagery right. This is a blob bludgeoning me so hard. Like, blobbed me into the wall. Cracked my head on the wall. Exactly. It's just like the force of the liquid. I guess if somebody smacks you in the face with a gallon of water, it would hurt. A gallon of water trying to strangle you to death. Doesn't a gallon of water always do that, though? Not like this one. Next level water. Like having a truckload of Jell-O drop on your face. Would I know if it would be more damaged by the silvered sword if I were to smack it with it? There's only one way to find out though. What? Yeah, I might as well. The image isn't that different from the other sword that I was using. It's free action to switch weapons once, right? Yes. Yeah, so I'll just use the fucking sword on it. And I'm going to use another luck point. ...to attack with advantage on this bastard. Damn, I was one-off from a fucking... So that's a... 21. That doesn't hit. Terrible. Three from the short sword, but I'm smiting this hell. Okay. Trace from the short sword. I'm smiting this hell. Darkship, but it's all right. Five from the smite. And I can't move, so I think that will be it. I spit on him again. I carefully try not to spit on your dog. I'm sorry, 100% spit on the dog. Trying not to spit on your dog. Yeah, if I have to make a check, I have to, but you know. Maybe a performance check. Oh, I can do that. That's a fucking net 20. What are you talking about? I'm proficient in my performances. I've been in the hot... - I've been saving this one up.

  • Wow, wow, is that your turn? If I can, I spit again. But yeah, I spit my turn.

Alright. Yeah, my first thought is I want to move the maximum distance I can across the room that we're in. Since I'm kind of in the doorway, I want to back out into the bigger room just to get distance on him so he's further away from me. But then immediately, same thing, I just want to try to shoot with my short bow again. And I want to ask, did my glancing blow still count enough to give me effects? Because I just have to do damage to it. So you would try to move back here a little bit? Yeah, I would move back there. I'd move... I don't know. How much distance is it to the center of the room? You could definitely move to the center. Yeah, because I would want to move back here. A good distance away. Because it's right there, right? Because I can still see it from right there. We'll keep everyone right here just to preserve the intensity. of this clusterfuck right now.

  • Yeah, yeah. So I would move back there and then I would definitely hit him with my short bow. And so now I have advantage and that means two and then keep the highest, right? - Yep.
  • Okay. - Two dice and take the highest.
  • And that's just for the hit, right? - Yes. - Okay. So short bow, let's see what we get here. Oh, that's not 20. So 24, that's 20. So I'm just gonna keep that and then roll my,
  • 11. - So what's the normal?
  • It's like 1D6.
  • It rolled two for me. So I got a five and a four. It gave me two, yeah. When I got the nat 20, it gave me two to roll. It gave me a five and a four. It just told me.
  • That is rules as written. Usually what we do is you would roll once and then you would take the maximum.
  • Okay, so in that case it would be five.

5 plus your rule in like 1d6 plus... Plus 2 is what it says. Perfect. So 5 plus 6 plus 2.

  • So like you roll a d6.

The fact that it's a nat 20 is like you would take the maximum of your potential damage on it.

  • Yeah, rules is written, you know, you would roll it twice, but you can roll ones on both of those, and then it's like why the fuck did I crit in the first place?
  • That's a house rule that we use.
  • Yeah, so the house rule is that like one of the first d6, you don't even roll it, it's just automatically a six. And then you roll the next one. - Okay.
  • This is with the wind.
  • The double-edged sword of this?
  • That was the part that I-- - That's how it works when we get crit too? - Yeah. - I didn't catch that part. That was the part I was confused about.
  • Thank you for explaining that better.
  • I was like, where did this sword come from? I didn't hear the sixth part. Makes sense though, okay, got it.
  • Yeah, it feels way better when you crit than being like, "Wha-fah!" - I just have to be a nitpicker as I'm looking at this. When you're giving us visibility for the dark vision, are you giving us 60 feet for that?

Yes. Well, yes. Some things, it's mostly just turning corners. And as well, stuff like that. I was just curious. Because I don't think we had seen much that was like 60 feet away. That's true. We've also got the... Yeah, nothing's really been out of my 20 foot range yet. Right. It's kind of a tight... Yeah, so it even it even goes way just none of these none of these corners have been very long at all, but right Now I just curious because Yeah, so I think I mean that was a good shot so I think I'm just gonna kind of leave it there because I Got for out of the way. You got the hit in that's Yeah, I'm on five is it plus two or plus four it was plus two on the total I

  • It would be plus four overall.
  • So it'd be 15.
  • Yeah. That's an excellent hit. Excellent hit.
  • One short of perfect, you know?
  • Yeah, yeah actually. But that's your turn, Gray. It does scream out in pain, that big a hit like that. - Nice.
  • That's with me? - Yeah.
  • Yeah, wow. Yeah, wow.

You know what? I'm going to... Sacred Flame is a primary action, right? Yeah. I'm gonna do that. And for here, this is Dex. Dex, are you okay? Yeah, so it'll be whatever your DC is. It passes, unfortunately. So that means I hit? No. Oh. So you make it roll a dex saving throw and I got a good roll. Enough that you don't even have to ask where my dex is. Not at this level, I'm not. Okay. And since I'm touching it, when I produce flame, I can do damage the first time. Is that like your rule now? Because this says I can't. Repeat the spell. A flickering flame appears in your hand that remains there for the duration. While there, the flame emits no heat and ignites nothing. Okay, never mind. So that's the damage for the second action only. Exactly. If it wasn't, it would be a magic action to make an attack against it. That's why you couldn't do it. Even if you're touching it, it would come down to like a melee, if anything. Okay, that's perfectly fair. And I will still do that as my bonus action to hold that flame in my hand. Yeah.

  • Yeah, you look, you would be able to produce that flame?
  • Is it bloody there holding that flame? - Yes, sir. - It's a threat. - I respect it.
  • It's coming.
  • I spit on it real good.
  • It's basically my version of that, you know? The bloody flames, they burn a little bit more red with a little white edge. - They do? - That's my turn.
  • Okay. Each of you make me athletics checks with disadvantage.

What's the disadvantage for both of them? Because you're grappled. No. That's not a part of grapple. No, it is this guy. Eleven. Part of his. What was the disadvantage on you guys right now? You said athletics? Yeah, it's just a nine. Damn. It was a nat 20 and then a five. Damn. Mine was a 17 and a 12, and I have a minus one. Take both of you guys with him as he moves over to grave. It takes his pseudo-partite against him. Music change would be a good time for this too. Let's see how well this attack is gonna go. Oh, that was dog shit. I assume a seven doesn't hit you. No? Okay. Damn. What did you have all three? You grabbed one in one! I had some lucky. You did, he rolled really bad. That's all he can do, right? Yep, and it's on the tables. Yeah! I'm in a good position to repeat my back the fuck away in long arrows. Did I notice that it didn't take any more damage to me visually from the silver sword versus my regular one? No, actually. This guy in particular. What color is the blood? Like transparent gray? Opaque gray? Opaque gray. I decided to be a part of it. It's how he's escaping. It doesn't know the difference. Maybe that's why I missed the first time in my actual first hit was a glance of Lowe. I was a little afraid that it was like, he's a brother. A brother in the grave. How are you describing? Oh my god. I'll switch back to my regular longsword then. I'm swinging at him. Excellent, excellent. Hit me with a roll. Hopefully it's good. Yeah, that would be 17. Excellent. Don't even roll any damage. Great god, get down to 180. As we continue to run around and set you guys... able to strike it down fuck that thing More amorphous, lifeless love. I'm not anymore. Not anymore? Yeah, just me now. I'm getting hit because it probably would have killed me pretty quick. Based on how much damage it was doing. I'm going to try to show you a good time for blobs. I'm blobbing good time. is over here. Let me see my proficiency. We need the next. It leaves you cool cats in this hallway once again. With there now being no door. Where'd the door go? I mean we could always take a short rest if you want to get some health back so you can roll some hit dice. I'm trying to see if I have anything that I can get help back quickly. I mean, short rest is just 30 minutes. Yeah. I mean, I'm cool with short rest. Okay. Maybe do a quick perception check on the new room and then it looks like it's got table chairs. Maybe just sit down. Is that actually there? Yes. So as you guys head into this room, you would see there's a chandelier suspended above this table with two high-back chairs in the middle of this room. Which has an empty clay jug and two clay flags on top of it. So this is kind of like a much better furnished room and there's some candelabras over here too that are provided or that would have provided that. I still have the flame in my hand right? Can I use that to light them? You absolutely could. So this room is now lit. Cool. See that and I'd say yeah if we want to take that short rest we got some chairs you guys can sit down and take the rest. I'm good. And I'm down for a short rest. So I can just kind of-- I wish I got more back, but I'm going to heal myself. Give me a single d100 for this 30 minutes that y'all are going to take to collect yourself some games somehow. I rolled two d8s. Is that right? It would actually be two d10s. Your d100 is like two. Oh, no, I meant for the healing. Oh, for the healing. It's however many hit dice you want to spend. So, yeah, it would be two d8s. I'm sorry. I was already processing that as happening, you know? I was like, next on the stack is... If you want to roll it for real, I would just do it on that. I believe in you. That was a 37. So now I roll my. Plus two. So seven to nine. And then a 1, so 3, so 12. So you would see two ways out of this room. A way kind of to your north and then a way kind of to your west. And I just add that 12 back to my health rate. And at the end of our short rest, I play a song. And they still have their inspiration, but if I could, I would give them another one. Excellent. Excellent. I would do it. You can provide a lot of inspiration, can't you? Yep. Wow. You guys should be using that then. Basically gives you advantage on any role that you choose. Ability checks, support attack roles. Yeah, I keep forgetting about that. You can just be like, I'm going to use it. Mm-hmm. Is it like a use it once and then it's gone? And it's gone until, yeah. Okay. But it's good for if you're in like a desperate situation. Oh, yes. And I can give them to y'all at the end of any short rest or long rest, but I can only give it to myself at the end of a long rest. So, which way would y'all want to investigate? It's just a, it's just a, you get advantage. Oh, you just get advantage. Yeah. So, based on my mental math, The top route would just go back to that crossroads that we were at before where we decided to go right instead of down. So I say we just kind of ignore that and continue left. What do you guys say? I'm fine with that. So y'all want to continue this way? Reception checks as you guys all enter this room. You had some fucking... Several 20s, though, so... 23. Yeah, it's just been... 23? 7. 7. So... Shables and Grey enter this room and everyone would notice a large bed. This is kind of the nicest bedroom you've actually seen. You'd see a rotten wardrobe, you'd see some candlesticks in this room. Iridell is going to be the only one who notices. Also a footlocker, sorry. But Iredell would be the only one to notice that there's multiple sections of the wall that looks as though they're caved in slightly. Secret tunnels, secret tunnels. I'd go to interact with the closest caved in wall. To interact with the wall, two ghasts are going to pop out of the deck, you guys. I'm having a better feeling about the silver sword against these guys. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Ghast sounds like... Yes. So let's move you guys back in here. Place yourselves wherever you would be. I'm... I would have been in the rear once again. I think that's the canonical reason for my bad perception role because I'm tiny. I was behind you guys. I was going to be peeping up in that footlocker. I'll be back up for a locker. I'm just, I got short wherever you want to be. You were interacting with the wall, right? It's right there. Yeah. These two things are guests. And as you guys-- They're right here. Yes, because they're kind of in the wall right now. And everyone, roll me initiative. Really nice, nice. Six. Hold on to that real quick. I'm going to refresh my page. Sometimes you're wondering like the dog shit online rolls. You feel better about when it rolls dog shit like in real life. Thirteen. It's nice to be able to choose. Yes, I completely agree. Do I trust real life right now or do I trust the simulation? How am I feeling? I like throwing number rocks. I also like my pretty pretty rocks. I have many of them. So I must roll them. See I probably wouldn't use it if I had to have one set of dice. Then when you're not feeling your dice... Now I think about giving myself a good set. You know what? Can I give you a... ...birthday present for myself? You'll start seeing them everywhere. This made me think of infected mushroom. I am very much looking forward to that. That's going to be very fun at the end of the month. Nat 20 for your initiative. Jables is probably going to go first. Top of the round is suspect of a safe roll. If Nat 20 right here, right now. That's my decimals, Your Honor. Six, I think. That's why I referred to my age. What was your number? Thirteen. It is J. Wilson, but that's right. I got one more of as good points as I ever was, you know what I'm saying? Y'all got that one covered, so I'm just walking up to this guy. As I jump up to him, I'm just switching to the silver sword, you know? It's just like all dramatic. I'm gonna use my... All dramatic! Yep. As you walk up to this ghast, you recognize it as Miss Durst from all the paintings that you've seen in the house. So she's the lady of the house. The lady who was starving the children. Yes, that locked her children in the attic. I used my inspiration. I'm going to get advantage on this one. If you two facing this one would notice this is Mr. Nurse. Thank God, I just did that. I'm just checking the dodge. There would have been a nat 1. That's only going to be an 8. Negative, unfortunately. Wow. Who's next? It's actually going to be this gas tank in front of you guys. The one right in front of us. Unfortunately. Well, at least J. Will got a chance to swing first. Yes. Yes. I respect it. She's definitely that. That takes it to the Mr. Nurse guest, who is the reverse centaur. He... Law attack is you here, Dil, for disturbing his howl. Okay. See how well he rolls. It's not going to hit. Nice. That's going to be its turn. It is going to actually move out of the little hole in the wall. And directly next to both of you. Which takes it to Miss Durst. And she is also going to do the same. She's going to move out of the wall. She's going to take a similar claw attack against you, Jables. Let's see if she rolls any quicker than her husband did. No! No, no, no. She did. So that's a dear no. This is our house now, you know? Yeah. So, because you started your turn within five feet of this ghast, You're gonna notice that this thing smells incredibly bad, so roll me a Constitution saving throw. That's... The stench begins to permeate your nostrils. I think fighting against stench is a great reason to use my inspiration. Do you want to give, like, the stench, Deebo? Not particularly, no. I consider myself a relatively clean person, you know? Well, you know, half person. You said constitution saving throw. I'm trying to find that on here so I know what I'm doing. Okay. I'm at 20, 22. Excellent. You definitely passed. You definitely passed. Do I like purge some of this tension away? I'm kidding. You definitely were like, no! Awesome. Awesome. And then I'll use bless. Huge. Um. Just about does Bless do. So we get to add a d4 on attack and saves? Mm-hmm. Nice. Okay. That's right. I remember that. Okay. We used it before. And then I'll go ahead and go in my trusty Pretty's Flame. Excellent. Excellent bonus action there. And that'll be it. Great. You got assaulted with stench. In fact, you'll have to make the same check of the third return. You'll be blessed for it. You will be blessed for it. Okay, so I do that, and then it's plus a d4 you sold? Yes. So 10 plus a single d4, and then plus your con modifier here. Three. Ten plus three. 13, I don't have a modifier on my custom shoes. - That's enough. You also are able to overcome the stench. You don't let it get to you.

  • Cool. I'm going to do my old trusty back the fuck up move first off and I'm just going to move to like back here kind of like in the drug I see you mean bonus action disengage yeah yeah disengage yeah because that's you're the only one who can do that as a bonus action so unless you every time you want to move away without getting an attack of opportunity you'll have to bonus action disengage but typically you have that action economy available yeah

Yeah, because I've done that a couple times, yeah. So I gotta get the fuck out of there. So I'm gonna do that and then... Short bow. There you go. Am I still... Does the bless thing still work on this? Yeah. I wasn't sure if that was a one-time thing. No, because as long as you're here, they'll concentrate on it. So that was 16, and then plus the d4 makes it 20. Definitely is. Extra D4 on the damage tier? No. Okay, 4. Unfortunately, no. That would make it very hard. Just 4. People would be yelling at you when you don't cast it. Yeah, it was just a 4. Excellent, excellent, excellent. So let's do something to it, hopefully. Back to Jables, who makes me a constitution saving throw. Starting his turn, close to this smelly gas. Oh no, I'm gonna fail it. You're gonna fail it? Yeah. Uh, that's a six. Ooh. You are unfortunately poisoned. Oh, that's fine. I could be poisoned. Disadvantage on abilities. Attack roll. Destroy. Until the start of your next turn. Until the start of my next turn? Yep. What does poison do? You just have disadvantage on attacks and ability turns. Oh, okay. I'm still gonna attack this ass. You can definitely. You can definitely. Piss me off. So that's going to be not enough, but it's going to be a 10. Unfortunately, that won't hit. Spit on him. Well, there you go. That takes it to my boy, the guest number one, Mr. Gustav Durst, who's going to take his claw attack. Hopefully it's a better attack than it was previously. I'm hoping not. I got moves like Neo. 13. Does not hit 14. Damn. Damn, he's not Robert. That leads to Elizabeth Durst. Third place is going away. No, keep it, keep it, keep it, keep it, keep it. You see what I'm doing? Keep it. That also does not hit. But that's her turn, which takes it back to Irindel after two unfortunate turns. As you take a peek. Hey, it's all fresh air, you know? That Nat 20 is holding true. I'm just going to swing fences at Mr. Dursty over here, who keeps swinging at me. So Sacred Flame for my magic action. That's a deck saving throw. 13. Does one to get. Two. It's one d8 radiant rolled two.

  • Roll a two?

I'm gonna throw that flame. Oh, that... Huh? Excellent, excellent. Okay. That's gonna be with disadvantage. Yeah, okay. But I get my d4, right? Do I roll a d4 on both rolls or do I roll it once and then apply it to whichever is the winning roll? Can't roll worse than this. A nat 1? Yeah. You could technically roll two nat 1s. I'm sorry. I did technically roll two nat 1s. Really? Because this is a 1 and this is a 1. Oh. So I don't feel like it's fair for me to re-roll anything. Roll me a d100. You throw in your flame? Yeah. Is that an action or a bonus action to throw in? A second flame is an action. A second flame is an action. That's a good point. It's a magic action, so I can't do it. You can't throw it at your own feet then. So I can't do it. That's what I was looking at. You are genetically correct. Thank you Travis. Okay. Crisis averted. You have a bonus action available though. You know what? I'm going to forgo my bonus action as a payment for messing that up. And call it good. Is that fair DM? Happy little accident. Excellent, excellent. I got nothing else to do. I'm out of the way and that's, it's worked for me and I'm still too squishy to want to be anywhere close. I feel like that's gonna be like, that should be the case. You know. So I'll just roll that real quick. Nice. Nice, 22. I think you could also get sneak attack against this guy because he's a... Oh. That's true, yeah. They're pretty good. Yeah, so it's an extra D6. Oh, it says if I have advantage on the world. Yeah, if I have advantage on the world. Oh yeah, because I hit it last time. Exactly. Those are so good for you. Alright, so... So what does that mean? I already rolled my attack to her, my hit, so I know I hit him. Did you roll with a bench? It's good to roll two jams. Yeah, you know, I did. Okay, yeah. So, roll a second one. The second one's a 10, but the first one was a 22. Well, you get a D4 plus on that, too. Oh, yeah, that's right. No, you definitely get it. I forget about that shit every time. It's like 1D6 plus 2, so it'll be 2D6 plus 2.

  • One and three, so one and three plus two. Is that how I would do it? - Yes. - Okay, so four plus two is six.
  • Six, excellent, excellent. Y'all are chipping away at this dude. He's not playing though.
  • I don't see any reason to move, so yeah, I'm also just, I'm just gonna leave it at that. I don't have anything else I can do. - Jables, come.

Do I have to do another concept? You do. You do, actually. We're gonna be dog shit. It's gonna be a 10. That is just enough. Nice. I'm swinging on him. That's hilarious. I'm swinging on him. This is less dog shit. It's gonna be a 19. That is? With my silvered short sword. What benefits does it gain against undead? I don't know. I just wrote down one of these things. If nothing, it's fine. This one lists against shapeshifted opponents. This is an old one, but it says it deals 1d4 extra damage to undead. That sounds right. That was for 5e. The D6 regular damage though, right? So you're saying plus one D4? That'll be... terrible. That'll be, uh, three, it'll be five DM-oosh. Five DM-oosh? I mean, it's more than, you know, DM-oosh. But it's also gonna get smitten. Okay. Smit. I'm, I'm going to assume they are undead. Yes. Safe assumption. Oh, yes. Oh, yes. I'm gonna figure out if I bust out and I'll fire you, D-A. There it is. Hell yeah, two of them maxed out. 18 radio demos. You're good, you're good. That's a big smite. Yeah, it was my last spell slot, so I'm happy that it wasn't my... Right. Oh, a flop. I'm trying to resist the stench. It just kept coming for you. It's painful. Travis did a lot of damage to the misses over there. The smite 18 radiant. her. Did you ask? No, I did not. So it'd be them, right? You know, it's the only... It's... I'm not gonna, you know, respect their, uh... Yeah. No, they're getting assumed. What's the start to children? Yeah. It's not okay. We're doing some crazy shit down in this fucking here dungeon. That's your turn. Yeah, let's just stand. Yeah, I like it. That's right. That's right. Every single time you say you spit on them, that is essentially the player's turn. That's a good point. So, Mr. Goosestomp is going to continue his unsuccessful onslaught of attacks. 12 doesn't hit. He's got 14. Come at the mundo. He's got that druid AC. That takes it to Miss Gustav, who's going to try to hit you with a 19. Just barely. Just barely. Okay. I'm going to deal 10 slashing damage to you and make you a constitution saving throw. Dog shit. Nine. Can't constitution save for my life. You are paralyzed. Until the end of your next term. Until the end of my next term? Mm-hmm. Okay. You're done. Okay. She's bloodied. He's bloodied. He's dusty. Not yet. Oh, never mind. She's dusty. Think I sacred flame her I - He'd be in range, right? Yes, he's gonna be. Then I... Does she have like disadvantage because she's an undead? I don't believe so. It doesn't list it. It'd be cool, but I don't think so. No, that would be cool. That would make sense too. It gets no benefit from cover for the saving throw. Yeah. I will go ahead and use Healing Word on my boy Jables. That's an eight. Yes. Sorry, was it my turn? Sorry. All right. Let's see. Yeah, still on the same position, same situation. Yeah, same thing for me. Do get it out, yeah. Yeah, I'm just going to do my short bone, and I'm going to remember that I had the d4 this time. So it's 12 plus 2, so 14. Did it? Did it? Cool. Want to leave in Brownsburg? Want to leave? Yes. Excellent. I guess this, that is just enough to have him also be Dusty. If that is your turn, that takes it back to Jables, who is paralyzed. And that takes it back to Mr. Goose Doctors. As I become unparalyzed, I spit on them. 23 to hit you with his claw attack. Good lord. That hits. He's going to also be dealing 10 slashing damage to you. and then constitution saving from. Constitution throws 17, no, 14, 14, sorry. Okay. And 10 damage is what I take. I start by responding to that second attach by spitting blood at her. Because, fuck that bitch. And then I go ahead and do Sacred Flame again. On the one by you. Go ahead and produce flame. Get that shit ready. Hizer. Okay, back to you again. I'm going to do my usual. I'm just going to keep shooting at this motherfucker. Excellent. Until I can get him to go down, as long as he's keeping him worried. Would it still be a sneak attack if he's not actively attacking me? Yes. Yeah, I forget what that adds. Let me... Yeah, it's an extra D6. Okay. Yep. And I do have advantage because I did it last time. Okay, cool. I have advantage, so I roll twice, right? Mm-hmm. Take the highest. Nice. That helps a lot. So 18. That definitely hits. 19. And then I get one extra d6 when the sneak is back? Yes. So 2d6 plus 2. So 4 and 4 plus 2. That's 10 total. 10 total. Very nice. Very nice. Thank you. Go after Kong, Sam. You passed the last one, right? Yeah. No. You're welcome. Okay. I like what's been happening. That is a 15 to hit. That does hit. Silver sword, I will do nice, maxed out, 10 damage.

  • 10 damage with this silver sword, excellent. Another big fucking hit. Hell yeah. - Nice. - All right, is that your turn?
  • We're getting fired up on this one.
  • Guidance isn't a bonus action, it's an action.
  • It is definitely an action. Actually, isn't it a reaction?
  • No, I don't think it was a reaction, I think it's just an action.
  • As soon as we air, and sit down soon.

Google things on the robot. No, that's an action. Uh, so... Okay, okay, you're keeping to that motif. I appreciate the consistency. I have to run to my boy again. So are you bloodied here or down? Yeah, oh yeah. Thank you. Didn't dodge that one. Yeah. At least you passed the concept. That's cool. I'm just spitting. All right, that takes it back to Gustav. Not hideous, though, and that takes it back to... He's standing right there and keeps just missing. Can only hit me once, you know? 19 against you. Yeah, barely. Okay, so she's going to be able to deal that 10 slashing. Woody. Come save. I passed it last time. This is not for the stitch. I know, I know, I know. I'm sorry. Too high. I have to answer it genuinely. I'm going to pass it. It's going to be fine. 16. Good, good, good. It's a 10 or better. I figured. I'm sure you've done that. This is funny. What is her turn collectively? Which, what are you at? Me? Actually, no, don't answer. You're bloody, right? I'm bloody. Okay. We're doing the metagame. Yeah, she's bloody, right? And they're both dusty. Everyone involved here is bloody. Except for Gray. Yes. I've been staying out of those. He's decided to be Gray, not Red. Yes. I got the flame in my hand so I'm gonna throw that bitch. You can't with disadvantage. Which one are you throwing it at? The close one or the far one? If you're throwing it at the far one, it's not with disadvantage. I'm throwing it at the far one. Same one I attacked last time. Which is the one in front of Jables over there. So you're just letting Ray deal with the one that's trying to kill you right now. Yeah, because as long as it's focused on me, he gets to hit it harder. And, you know, it's only hit me once, so I'm not that afraid of it. It's been rolling with advantage against you now that you're talking shit. It's been working out so far. 1921. Did it hit? Yeah. Definitely. And then it's 1d8. That is fire damage. Man can dream. I know. It's already in my hand, you know, I gotta throw it. Yeah, it's flame damage. Two. Two damage! This is a big hit. More than nothing. She's still kicking though, unfortunately. I'm gonna go ahead and healing word my boy Jables over there. For eight. You're not bloody! He's been back and forth across the day. My combination is working out very well with this, like, you guys. My gloves are stained. Back and forth with me just out of the back, just kind of like... I'm out of spell slots, so... Before I do my turn, I cough up more blood. Great! Like, yeah, like teacher, in Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood style. Just... 19 plus 4. Definitely hits. Definitely. This is, yet again, a sneak attack. Yes. So it is seven plus two. It is nine. Nine to that one? Yep. Nine to Mr. Reverse Center. Always my favorite when you can be sneaky from that far away just because they're a little bit focused. How am I getting damaged? Somehow my back really hurts. How am I taking damage? No! That is going to be... That was difficult for me to do that simple math right there. That's going to be just enough to kill Mr. Gustav as he slumps his smelly corpse hitting the ground. Lord. I'm surprised it worked. It did. It did. I think I might stick to long range as my main thing. That's your turn. Yeah, I'm going to stop there. I don't have any reason to move forward because I believe I can still see everybody else. Jables. I'm swinging. Might be missing. It's an 11. That misses. I had a feeling. Spittin'. I'm going to position so that my friends can see her. And all of her spit-blooded glory. I want you to be right between the arrow and the gas. I've learned lessons between the arrows and their targets. Hey, we did pretty good on that one shot I did. Hey, I had faith. Because I went right between the legs and got them in the nuts that one shot. I had faith, 100%. I remember that specifically. Oh, yeah. There was a lot of leg spreading in that one moment. Okay. I said go wider. That was literally verbatim. In there. Make sure. Gassed, whatever it is. Gassed, yes. She is going to miss your dice tray. No. And that is going to be Iridel. That's her dusty ass turn. She's not happy with that. She's going to have to roll a dex save. The sacred flame is coming her way. 13 just saves. It's it hoots. Eight. Eight radiant. Eight radiant. That should be... That's not... Pretty close. That's not enough. That man was a bitching person to her. Actually, wait. Well, you know. Mental math. Well, yeah, because I'm just writing the numbers thanks to each other until it gets to be too big of a number for me. If they didn't have the same health, then it's just, I was like, damn, she had more health than him. I was like, that's crazy. Were you doing the math? I try not to. I mean, she got hit for 18 early on, right? 18 right in. That was enough to make her dusty, so I guess you could technically from that. Good job, guys. You failed these two, guys. Nice. Us? Yeah. You killed him. You just put him down right here, right now. Oh, and I thought we were the upright, morally just owners of the house. No, that was me being egregious about these two people that you just put down. But you are now, you were the owners before, but you are now very much the owners, which would leave you in this room. Um... I assume you guys would go to open the footlocker as you had planned before. Yeah, we planned to do that. It did have my attention. It did. So you would find multiple things in this footlocker. Be ready to write this down. You would find one cloak of protection. Very important. You would find a small wooden coffer as well, unlocked. Containing four potions of healing, regular ones. Jane shirt. - That's cute. Flask of Alchemist's Fire. A bullseye lantern. A set of thieves tools. Spellbook, which has a number of spells, but I'll tell you guys these items a few times before we get into the spells in the spellbook. I think there's one, only one that I missed. The last one? Uh, no, it was somewhere in the middle. So, wooden coffer, four potions of healing, chain shirt, mess kit, alchemist's fire, old eye lantern, thieves tools, and then a spellbook. Okay. Which none of you guys can utilize wizard spells anyway, so. But I'll still tell you exactly what's in the spell book. I'm pretty sure I already have a set of thieves tools. I wanted to make sure. You never have too many, right? Yeah. So this spell book would contain disguise, so identify, mage armor. Magic Missile. Protection from evil and good as its level 1 spells. Spells, you would have dark vision, cold person, invisibility, and magic weapon. Sorry, can you do the LTs again? Dark vision, cold person, invisibility. Do we know the rough value of this spellbook given the spells in it? Right, right. That's what I'm saying. So we'd have to find somebody and see what they're willing to pay for. We can't just kind of gauge roughly how many gelled. For this one, though. Other items, like all the previous items, you could quantify those into gold easily. They had a lot of shit. You'll probably be able to kind of tell contextually that they likely had been looting these items from other adventurers. The people that they had lured into this dungeon and murdered. Yes. You get all the goop from this room. You goop this room entirely. Should we put the cloak of protection on someone? The plus one AC is probably pretty nice to have. It's huge. You wouldn't need to do it too much, which is over a long rest, unfortunately. Well, we probably should do a long rest anyway. I'm out of spell. I'm out of everything. Would you try a long rest in this room? Um... With a bed room. We all just climb up in there. Back to the pile. Have we finished exploring the room? Is there anything else that we can kind of perceive, things, drawers that we can check? So, in this room was the wardrobe. When you look in the wardrobe, which I assume you will, you'll find old robes, more candlesticks. There's actually also that open crate you see in the corner containing a lot of torches. And there's also a leather sack with a lot of candles. So if you wanted any of those items in particular, you can help yourself. But other than that, The two tiny little hideaways that these guests were lurking in as they hopped out. I tried to kill you. Did Miss Owner of the House in her crypt bedroom have pretty robes that Eridal might find some sentimental attachment to due to the design work or... color or material used. You'll find that these in particular are lacking any kind of fashion or taste. Like, they're all black. They're all very worn. I consider setting the wardrobe on fire and think better against it. Do we want a long rest in here? Do we want to, is there another place we would feel more comfortable? Than the room where we just murdered the really smelly old inhabitants? I mean, we can move the smell out. You wouldn't know that the room is clear. I'm cool with it. I think it makes sense. I'm cool with it. We could always, like, push the dresser in front of the doorway or something. Yeah, for extra security. I'm not against that like we did with the thing before, although I'm not sure. It'll at least make noise and slow them down awake as well. Yeah, that's my thought. Okay. You're able to do just that. Are you guys taking watch or who's taking the first watch in this little bit of sleeping? I'll take the first watch. I've been unharmed for a lot of the time. I've just been Roll me the D-100 for this first four hours. It's your two buzz. I'm assuming both of you guys are attempting to sleep at this time. Yeah. Yeah, I guess I'll just roll it in virtual. So you can use these if you want. I also have a golf ball. Actually, yeah, I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll do it. - I see a 50 and a four.

  • 54? The first four hours go without incident. Are you staying up for the next four hours or are you waking up your buddies?
  • Good question. For long rest, we just have to do non-strenuous stuff for the eight hours, right? I mean, you can wake someone up if you want to sleep. It's four hours.

Yeah, because I stayed awake and I didn't do anything during the short rest. So, yeah, I'll go ahead and I'll wake somebody up too. I'll wake Jables up and then rest for the other day. I don't have anything to recover necessarily, but just for the sake of lore-wise, taking some sleep is a good idea. You let Iredel get the full eight hours of sleep, so Jabil's making the next B100 roll. I do have some stuff I might want to do, Durin. Some non-strenuous, but it's going to be a 20. That would still be enough to have this... ...hours happened with that incident. Are you wanting to attune to the cloak of protection? Uh, well, I was trying to... Who did want to attune to that? I mean, one person would, if y'all want to do that, but they specify. I assume it would be one of us, since we're the ones that get hit the most, right? Yeah, definitely one of the guys who are... I mean, I'm squishy, but I stay awake. Right. Definitely one of you guys who are more likely to be up close to it. I'm cool with either of us. I'm not... I'm not, uh... No, I wouldn't... What's your AC? Mine's 14. Because mine will stay at 18. There's not much I can do aside from paying items. Mine grows over time, right? As I... Yeah, Dex, which I want to because at least one of the cantrips and I think one of the later ones are both Dex saves. Well, that's just against your DC, which has nothing to do with your DEX. It'll be whatever your spellcasting modifier is. So you want to get your wisdom higher if you want your saves to be higher. Okay. And that'll make your attacks more likely to hit you several different ways. I mean, I'm cool either way. Yeah, I'm cool. I think you're the one that walks in the room the first most of the time, you know? I mean, fair. Do you use a shield? Me? No. Oh, I do have a shield. I have a shield. Leather, light armor, and a shield. An adventurer's cloak. 13. 13. Okay, way on. So when I hit long rest on here, it has two things, two long rest rules, 5E and 5.5E. 5.5E. Okay, so recover all hit dice. Yes. Do I have to do anything special to a Tundra? Or do I just basically have to wear it throughout the long rest? The thing I wanted to do though is I have those 12 silver knives on me. Is there anything around the room that I could see that I could maybe make my homie Gray some silver arrows while I'm-- Out of like dinner knives? I've got these dinner knives. There's some wood around the room. If I need feathers, I'm going to cut them a pillow, bro. And I've got, I assume I've got rope. I don't know, I mean, if not... Oh, we have bolts, right? You could maybe use the stick from the torches for the arrow shafts. Oh my god, yeah, there are torches. Yeah, I could just snap some of those. Yeah, and I've only got 12 of these, you know, so I've only got so many attempts. Also... I figured it might be non-strenuous. Also happy to give up whatever bolts are on my... Oh yeah, I haven't used the crossbow very much, but that's just because right now I've got a... I just wanted to ask if I could, if I could attempt to make some. I'm contemplating. Give me two sleight of hand checks. Can I give myself guidance? Yes. That first one's gonna be a nine Second one's gonna be a 14. And I had 12 silver knives total to start with. So as you go to start like making these very crude, um... Very crude? Um, silvered arrows, um... It's like more like an improvised silver arrow. Roll me... Well,

  • Thank you for the tower.

Eleven. Eleven? A D-fucking-twelve. You're able to make... You're able to successfully, out of the twelve actual pieces you have, you're only able to make four. Four? You do make him four silver, improvised silver arrows. And I no longer have the knives. I assume. You took all the knives to make the four. They have a silver version of the bolt and the thing So would that be, yeah, so you just want to find the bolts? And there should be a check mark that you can add to modify it. What are they, what are they called exactly? What was, what was made? Like improvised silvered arrows, which aren't a real million arrows. It's not an actual item. He just like threw together a MacGyver kitchen knife silver arrow. We Jack Blacked it. Just do maybe an arrow and then add a note to it maybe instead. There should be a check mark to modify it. So when you click on it. Because my whole plan was for the four hours I wanted to make those arrows while thinking up The song I was going to make. Oh, it's in the crossbow. You can list that you have four silvered. I appreciate the commitment. Probably just the custom ones, the easiest ones. Yeah, yeah, I'm just doing the custom. Rest, you wake up. You said there's four of them? Yes. You're rested. You're not like super well rested because like the room's kind of dirty and it's kind of smelly, but you know, there's a bed which y'all definitely utilized. I assume you would start backtracking. Yeah. I mean, yeah, there's another way to go, right? Is there, there's no secret doors in that room. Those walls that have the caved in spots, do they... They were not like tunnels. They were just like little hobbles that they did. Okay. I accept this. Would you go back to the room with Crystal Lord or would you continue back down the tunnel? Something's driving me like Crystal Lord. It's our house. It's our order. Right. Yeah, we're going to have to... Because we were hesitant before. We're going to go up through the trapdoor. I'm going to go ahead and touch it because I feel like if it's anything, it's, yeah, if it's anything, it's necrotic. I'll know right away and I have resistance to that. So I'm just going to kind of touch, poke it. Just a gentle, you know. Come hither. As you touch the crystal orb specifically, nothing happens. It is just a crystal orb. So, we could, we could, we could, like, Indiana Jones this thing. Right, the exits are right there. Well, and there's skulls and stuff. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, swap, swapy, yeah. You want to toss me a skull? I'll grab you a skull. Which, is there a skull? I want to eyeball a skull that looks like it weighs about the same as this crystal. Sure, like there's skeletons everywhere. Well yeah, but which one, you know, you know. Roughly the same size, weight, and mass. That's my goal. I don't know if you need to check it. You'd have to find one that's very close. Okay, that's the first one. I'm going to say as all this is going on, I'm walking up towards that other, the special exit up here, and I'm At least opening the way. I'm in that doorway or over that direction. Okay. As casually ready to run as Gray can be. Well, also, I'm not interested. I'm just like, okay, we've killed all the shit. This is next. I'm standing right next to you. I don't know which one of us is doing the swap. A little coordination, you know? Since you said, you know, You do have the necrotic resistance. Yeah, I'm already holding it. I figure I'll pick it up, but that's what I was saying. Toss it to me. I could just with my slightly faster than normal reflexes that I get from being a half a vampire. Great. I like that. I like that. How great is the race? That's how I dodged all those gas hits. Yeah, he's also rolling fucking dog shit, so there was some... That was my divine protection, you know? The wanderer was looking out for me today. Someone was. My luck was Thank you. Actually pick up the orb fully in your hand. Five shadows are going to form around you and the statue and they're going to attack you. We're all going to roll initiative. But the shadows are going to get a single attack. Actually, yeah. They're going to get a single attack. So we're back in initiative. Six. I'm gonna prepare myself for the battle. Yes, yes, yes. This is... I wonder if y'all are gonna touch that fucking door. You gotta, it's, you know, it's college. Yeah, you do have to, though, you do. Those are bad news. So they touch the orb, and now they're getting attacked. Yeah, I heard that. Yes, yes. I heard shadows. Are we just at shadows for now? That's all we've heard? They are shadows. They're like shadowy spectral beings. Oh, okay. So voila. It's going to be. Those silver arrows are going to come in handy. Oh, yeah. I'm going to hope a lot that I don't miss. I also hope that you don't miss. For y'all's sake. I have not, but I definitely will take one. Kind of in the fuck box as well, Jables. You specified you were standing right next to him. Thank you, thank you. Couldn't my boy do it alone? What'd you say? Couldn't my boy do it alone? No, no, he's gonna be grateful that you're there with him after this onslaught of a text. And you're lucky that it doesn't specify that each get an attack. They just attack, so we're not going to have them each take an attack against Iridel. I think that would result in his immediate death, so. You know what I am going to do, though? I'm going to look for more gold. Y'all have been navigating this fairly difficult combat well though. I'm interested to see how you fare against these shadows. Yeah. So far the strategy of me just staying back and lobbing arrows has been working. I've been getting good enough hits, or at least having the initiative and advantage and all that every time because of it being a sneak attack because they're always fighting everybody else. There you go. I think it's Jabba's turn to green this. He'll get to do that when he gets back in. Until I level up a little bit more and get some more health and armor. But in any case, I'm liking the idea since I was wanting to do arcane tricks or stuff for illusion and shit anyway. I was wanting to use that as like a way to hide more and get further away and all that kind of thing anyway. That will be a good strat in some of the battles that you'll face. I wrote my 14. 14, excellent. Throw the plate away, take a hit from my pen, and then roll. Excellent. Excellent. Sounds like a plan. Well, it is your green's job. Yep. Anyone that tickles your fancy. I did roll a six before I went outside, but I don't know if you want to count that or not. Would it be a cumulative six even with your initiative? Damn. Damn six. What did you say? Bro. I had to try, you know? I also had to be honest about it. Someone's got to go last. Someone's got to go last. I'm grateful you were honest. That's integrity, right?

  • By the way, I did sing their song about my silvery knife making.
  • I'm feeling very inspired.
  • When we woke up.
  • I like that. What's your dexterity, Greg? - What? - 14, right? No, it's like 16, right? - 15. - 15, so you're getting there.
  • I think, is that including-- - Thinking about the song inspired me.
  • Yeah, just know your overall stat.
  • Okay, the plus two is if I'm rolling on that button. - Is it your hit? Or no. We'll do the circle. The black cherry soda somehow makes me drink more of the root beer.

The root beer is very good though, thank you. This brand is really good. It is. Take it to one of these shadows at the very top of the route. In fact, the shadows roll well for their initial-- I'm gonna take a draining swipe attack against you. Here I go. Blaine ain't got nothing on me. We're also going to take their two attacks against you here, Adele. Okay. So, 19? Yeah, 19 hits. There you go. He's gonna hit you with one of your draining swipes. Sofary bar. Get the fuck out of here. You're gonna be hit by five necrotic damage. And roll me a d4. Okay, I have necrotic resistance as well, so it's half, right? There you go, yeah. How does that shake out? Two? Is it truncate or is it round? I did three last time, so go ahead and do three this time. Okay. And then what am I rolling again? D4? Yeah, roll me a D4. What is that? Two. Two? Your strength score is reduced by two. How do I modify that? Other modifier, minus two. And then I take how much damage? Three? Yes. Three to cry. Those are going to be both of your turns, and that takes it to Jables. Well, I think I'm going to hold on to that silver story as I start to wind up. Luck points are long rests, right? Or is it every day? Is Lucky long rest? Yes. Okay. For some reason they didn't have that on there. Oh yeah, there it is. It's written right there. So I'm going to use my luck point then. One of them. Who am I? Who am I? Which of these have already gone? Everyone. The three by him, basically. Yeah, so it was these three that just took all of their turns. All three of those went for him? Pretty sure it did. I think there's one more in there. Do you want this, Travis? Yeah, I'll rip it. Do I work point do that or do I other stuff right now? I don't want to get hit. We're doing some ho shit right now. That's a bonus action anyway. I'm not going to use my look for it. I'm just going to swing it out. Okay. Hit me with the roll. Are you using the silver sword? Silver sword, yes. That's going to miss. That was a two, so it's going to be a four. Damn. Thank God it wasn't a one. Thank you. For my bonus action, I'm going to Shield of Faith myself. Okay. Good spell. Good spell. It's your turn that takes it to Mr. Gray. Spitting on this guy. I expect nothing less. That's gonna be in the drop-down. Alright. Well, I'm guessing I'm able to sneak attack because none of them are paying any attention to me.

  • Oh, their eyes are all on Gary now. You can see that.

He has the orb of fire.

  • Yeah, yeah, so that's all. I'm just gonna take, I guess, whichever one is for this back, and I'm gonna start shooting at it. - Okay. - I'm seeing what's happening, and I'm like, well, all right, I guess we're fighting again.
  • Like the damage?
  • Yeah. - Are you trying out one of those silver arrows, or? Oh yeah, that's a good call. Yeah. Would be a good time. Yeah.

They're in the fuck box right now. Yeah, so I'm going to use one of the silvered arrows and I'm going to shoot my short bow. It says with advantage, that means I roll twice, right? Yes. So let's see. 17. 17. Medently, it's. Cash on the line. Okay. Oh, it would have been higher if I had managed to include my d4, which I didn't, but... So, yeah, I just added a 1. No, and then it's the sneak attack, so it's 2, right? And what does the silver do? Is it another d4? Yeah, a d4. So, 6 plus 2 plus a d4.

  • Nice, nice. Two other guys.
  • Yeah, I picked this one in the back specifically just because that was one of the Four of those arrows, right? Yes. That means I'm down to three of my quiver. I'm going to make a note of that just to figure I should. Something I might be thinking about trying to retrieve. That's what actually gets out of the line.

You'll come back. you I think. Yeah, I don't see any reason to move from where I am. So yeah, I'll just do that for now. And yeah, we'll just leave it there. That's all my comments, but as far as just the dead fans standing in the back just shooting arrows, that's the rest of the fights happening, just as Greg would do. But it takes it to the two remaining shadows in their group, and they're going to take each of their attacks against your dog. Is that it? I think Grace's little man-of-hatch is rolling against me. That is the same. That'll be half, which is quarter. Yeah. Yeah. So each of these swipes, it'll be, we determined it's three, right? It'll be a total of six damage. Okay. Which is already half. One of them gets half-half, right? Yeah, so it'd be... Yeah, so, yeah. We're going to say it's one. So you're going to take what? Four. And then roll me 2d4. I'm going to stay with my D4 right now. Strength score is decreased by five. Okay. What is it? What is it? It's one. You're down to one? Yeah. Carry on. I'm a pretty weak friend now. I believe it. Is it my turn now? It is. I know that you mentioned that. It is. I feebly call upon the gods to bless my friends and myself. We are now blessed. Does Bless Mount use one of my spell slots? It does. You have a spell scroll as well that says. Okay, okay. That's why I didn't auto-mark it. But I want to use my ability. And then... So I'll go ahead and produce the flame. And I'll draw the orb closer into my chest. Nestled in my bosom. Because clearly it's valuable if six things showed up and just started swinging at my face. Five, but... Okay. Just five. Five. That's your turn. That takes it back to the single shadow. Where is my d4? There it is. Your strength score is really at one already. Was it not that high? Was it already your dumb stat? It was already my dumb stat. It already decreased it by seven. Is this mask going to do it? Is it going to continue to attack you? Let's see. It's going to actually change targets. It's going to attack at the same time as you were attacking. Oh. Unfortunately, net 20. I had a feeling when you said, oh. Shit. Wait, can't I use luck to make him disadvantage from his attack on me? If the condition is that if they roll a 20 that you can give a disadvantage, how would you know that advance? Well, You have to say like, when you give yourself the luck point, you have to declare before you roll it. When you give yourself the advantage. Yeah, my issue with this is the roll. Yeah, I'm going to attack Jables and then rolls it. Yes. Yeah. Yes. I was quick on the roll. Pretty much said it within a couple seconds. Yeah, you did. You did. It was pretty quick. But I will. I will. God damn. I'll try to be faster. I'll do my danger. I will. I'm a warrior. Which passes its turn, which takes it to the two other shadows, the ones in that line. So this one right here that's closest to you, Jables, is going to take its attack against you. And this one right here is going to take its attack against your doll. James J. Wilson's first. This one... Oh. Oh, two sixes. So neither of those attacks are gonna hit. Which takes it to you, James. I'm a huffing, I'm a puffing. Is Iridale bloody? No. So, make me a perception check. Oh, because, well... Make me a perception check. How did you look at Iridale? It's not that good. It's not that good. It's a five. A five? It's a five. I'm distracted. She. I miss gender in Eridon. Oh, sorry. It's funny because my characters are always men in the ending as well. It's just hilarious. Gender bending is fun, you know. It is. It's fancy. Am I? - Do you have a faith on one person? - Isn't it?

  • It's a concentration.
  • Okay, yes. - That's what I thought. I knew Derek had thrown it pretty loosely around, but I just never looked at it before.
  • There are some of them that aren't concentration. Like there's one that isn't, that Claire is getting.
  • Okay, okay.
  • It's called something else. And it just gives you a plus two. - That's cool.
  • How it is for now. I might do more overall. I'm gonna keep the Smite in my pocket.

Thank you. I'll swing first. I'm gonna swing on the homie that got hit with the silvered arrow. Yeah, the one that's like right next to you trying to hit you as well. Yeah. Yep, yep, yep, yep. Makes sense. Yeah, that hits. 21. 21 definitely hits. Do I smite him? Thinking I smite him. When would one use a ritual? Like out of combat? They're usually done without spell slots, but it takes you 10 minutes casting time instead of instead. If it says it uses spell slots, then it uses spell slots. Well, you can oftentimes not ritual cast, but which one are you looking at? I'm just looking to find familiar. So you can cast that. Out of combat without using spell slots as well. Or during combat. And is that persistent? Like once I've done that, I have that familiar period? Yes. But if I use find familiar again, it would replace that familiar? Yes. Okay. Very good spell. Yeah, I'll smite him. Okay. So that'll be the six from my sword, my silvered short sword. Yep. Yep. And then you get additional D8s as well because of his undead status. I was hoping he was undead. Yeah, I know. 13 radiant. That is going to be enough to murder his ass. He explodes. The radiant seems particularly effective. And that will be my paladin's might that can do once a long rest. You know what I'm doing. Is that your turn? It is my turn. Alright, that takes it to Gray. And also make me a perception check, as you look upon your comrade, Iridel, upon her taking multiple hits from these shadows. Twelve. Oh. So it's funny that you were able to perceive a little bit better when you're standing further away from Jables. As a ranged person should. I was blinded by the, you know... Yeah. You were at it. You can't see the forest from the trees. You're going to notice that she's not bloody, I don't think. But all the colors drain from her face, and she looks like her vitality has been seriously drained. She looks like knocking on death's fucking door. But not bloody. I'm a Oh, that one got killed. Yeah, smoted. I will just work my way forward and shoot yet another silver arrow. Yeah, a carpet-looking one. And that's Sneak attack so with advantage so roll twice. Yep, yep. 22, I think, and I'll need to roll twice. I'll just leave it. It's fine. So, and then it's also... Big attacks of extra six and two again. Four and three, seven plus two, nine. And it's the silver thing, so whatever was added because of that. Plus a D4 as well. Plus a D4. What did I just say was that number? Nine. So nine plus a D4. Plus three, 12. 12. 12 on the carpet. - Actually just enough to kill that one as well.

  • Nice.
  • I'm a bad wiener.
  • There's three left?
  • Yes.
  • I'm definitely gonna attempt to retrieve these arrows from these things' corpses.
  • That's a good move. That's a very good move. Is that your turn?
  • Yeah, I'm gonna leave it there. I know what I'm gonna try next if it's not dead already.
  • Okay. That takes it to the final two. One is going to take its attack against Jables and the other one's gonna take its attack against you or Adele.

It's on you, whatever you want. Finish this. Or no. I'd be doing the same. No, it's not gonna hit you, Jables. I'm going to pull out the coffee dice. Coffee dice are failing me. I'm going to do the coffee dice. The coffee dice are still on my side, you know? Nothing you can do about it. You leave those things out of it. You leave the coffee dice out of it. That is going to take a D, Mirabelle. I like the one with the coffee and the D20 as well. I've got a lot of brown dice. Can I feel like I can use the orb for anything in this fight? Can I draw from it? Does it have a life essence that I can pull from? It's not a magical orb, it's just smokey quartz. They care so much about it. Okay. Okay. I'll use my fire because it's already in my hand. disadvantage because they're all pretty much right up in your-- And... But it's not here. So I'm gonna have to keep neo-ing with some flame in my hand. I'll use produce flame again. Okay. That'll be my turn. Produce flame. That would have taken it to carpet, who's dead. Which takes it to the other guys, who's gonna take their attack again. So let's see. 13? Does not hit. I mean, I like you. The wanderer sees me. That's my turn? It is. I thought you were trying to do things for me. I mean, next turn. Three of them left, huh? There are three of them left. Hmm. Hmm. Trying to remember who's been hit the most. Who's been hit the least. We'll swing at this guy closest to me, I guess. ...the lock point when I swing at him. Being 18 to hit. That hits. That definitely hits. I assume you're doing the brown guy. This is closest guy to me. Yeah. I'll use my last spell slot to swing. I think I wait. I think I wait. That'll be seven silver sword Dimash. Excellent. He is... I don't know if a shadow can be bloody, but this one is. It's kind of starting to dissipate a little. Exactly. We need a corporeal form that dates it to you, Greg. I'm shooting. Here's my bird. I have two more of these arrows, so I'll do this again. And it is once again, 14 6 plus 2, 8 plus whatever for being solar. Not yet. So 9? 9. Nice, that one is also beginning to shift a little bit. Is that your turn? Yep, well actually, I'm gonna start moving a little bit. I'm gonna move myself a little bit more because if that one dies I need to be starting to get closer to the other side to hit the others. Excellent. So that's going to be it after a little bit. That takes it to the other two that are going to spread their attacks as they did before, one to Jables. And the other one to Iridel. She's not going to hit. It's going to be another 12. Call me Muhammad Ali. Fucking float like a butterfly. Stick like a beast. The rules are very unfortunate. I don't know what that means. Um, here we go. Um, alright. I'm gonna try the Sacred Flame. It's a dex save. So it does have... Is that a pass? There's no glancing blow. Yeah, I think it passes with that. Okay. Fairly a pass. So that would be... That's an eight for the roll of radiant damage. I don't believe they take damage... Because that's a cantrip, right? Yeah. They won't take that. Because it passed. It passed the save. Oh, it passes the same, so it doesn't take any damage. Gotcha. Okay. I was thinking my roll passed. Right. So. No, you're good. You're good. You unfortunately passed. And then I kind of crouched down because that's all I can do at this point. What you're carrying right now has never felt heavier than in your entire fucking life. Yeah, my arm feels like it's going to fall off. My legs feel like they're wobbly. Exactly, yes. So I'm kind of like on my knees. Which takes it to... Yeah, that's my turn. Perfect. That takes it to skeleton tone. Going to be another, sorry, I was reading something. Number 12, which is not going to hit. Jace looks really upset she hasn't killed me yet. We're all in this because I can't fucking believe it. Jables. We've got Mr. Dusty. We've got Mr. Dusty. And that one over there is like untouched, right? Yes. The one on the other side of... Here it goes. I'll swing it as close as Mr. Dusty, I guess. Mm-hmm. Brom-man? Brom-man? Thinking about using luck or not. You only have two of them, right? Yeah, I've used one. I should have used it. It's a nine. Bonus action. A lot of spitting. A lot of spitting. Great. I think I'll be chilling there. Assume you're taking an arrow bolt against a skeleton man. We're still blessed, right? Yes. Yes. Oh, we're blessed? Yes. I was going to say that, but I had my mouth full. Sorry. I didn't want to speak with a human mouth full. Was it a nine? It doesn't have it on yet. Does it change it if it's a 12? Glinting bolt. plants and blood. We're not going to smite him. We're not going to smite him. We're going to do, so it'll be half of nine. With my silver sword. Okay. Either for or fight, however you want to do it. I have unfortunately taken a very large bite of this cookie, and that could not speak. Yeah, I realize that comes at a bad time. I totally forgot we were blessed. I totally forgot.

  • Your deal hasn't taken a single attack against, or hasn't, yeah, taken a single attack since he cast a blow. So you haven't had to take a fucking constitution saving throw either, which is fucking miraculous.
  • And when he does it, he blasts it. - All right, so I'm gonna go ahead and do, yeah. - He still blasted until he drops it. - So it's my turn now actually, and yes, I am gonna do the arrow. And I think this is my last silver arrow, if I'm not mistaken. No, no, I was saying I had two, but I hadn't used them yet. So I gotta use... You got two more. Yeah, two more. So I'm gonna use this one. So it's, again, sneak attack.

Also advantage because of Vex. No, because I haven't shot this one yet, so I don't have Vex. You still have advantage because it's attacking Iredell right now. She's the person of interest for these shadows. 23, I don't even need to add the d4. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, so. No, no, no. Yeah, you've been rolling pretty consistently against these guys. Which is good. Someone's rolling well. Oh, and I think it's just a one roll this time for damage, right? So it's just three. You get the plus d4 for it, right? Because of the silver. Yeah, so it should, shouldn't it be 2d6 plus 1d4 because you get the sneak attack. Okay, three, and then I'll let it go. So... You're broke with sneak attack. Three, three, and one more roll. Two. So a cumulative... A cumulative eight. Excellent. Did you add your plus two to that as well? Yeah, that's with the plus two. Perfect, so eight. Let's see, and that shadow you just attacked for nine last... that's gonna be just enough nice so scary time's done again Three lucky silver arrows I'll have to try to take back for sure. Make sure I can recover that shit because they have been effective. Definitely, definitely, definitely. Is that your turn? I've seen things like that break before, but I've seen them not break before. I wonder. I wonder. This is me, right? Yes, sir. Is that your turn? Okay, is it going? To the left. If that is your turn, we will take it to the two remaining shadows. And they're each going to take attacks, as they have been before. We'll see if they'll hit this time. One against Jables. Yeah, I'll use dice I haven't used tonight. I'll dig deep in the bottom of all my dice. 30 Is that a no or is that a yes? Boy, I have 21. You have 21 AC? With Shield of Faith, you have 21 AC? Okay. Ear dome. Nice. 13? Doesn't hit. We just start striking fucking JoJo poses. Um, okay, so this one's kind of translucent now. This one's still corporeal. Yes. I'm going to use the sacred flame on this one in front of... On the bloodied. Yeah. Dusty. Kind of see-through. More see-through. The foggy, the smoky. We did complete this one, right? So Dex save and throw for the Dusty Krusty. 13 is the DC. It doesn't make it. 1d8 radiant. 6 radiant. 6 radiant? Yes. To the one that hasn't been damaged yet? To the one that is damaged. Okay, that definitely kills it. Yes. And that's it. That's all I can do. Oh, man. Oh, man. Make sure you get it far enough on the other side so I can hear it. Give it a shot. I'm using my inspiration to get some advantage on this bitch. So blessed. Yeah. Thank Christ. Because that could be the difference between hitting the mess in here again. Does a 13 hit? Yes. Oh yeah, 12 is a glancer. 12 is a glancer. And I am going to smite it this time. With my last spell slot. Nice. So with the silvered short sword, they'll pay... and Let me get these my... Radiant. It explodes. Nice. Good job. If your strength had been reduced to zero by these attacks, you would have died. Yeah, that's what I was afraid of. Me too. Outright death. No saves. No saves, just gone. Just dead. But the dodges were there. I kept getting rattled by my arrow hits and they were like... All you got to do is you got to be the bless. As soon as you do that, the gods see your favor and they seek to provide. I was hoping I could show the faith both of us after I did it. It's interesting that the second time I brought you to near instant death in these comments, it's different to your maneuvering these well. It's fine. Irredill's no stranger to near death. Seems so. Seems so. It's kind of like, you know, a pattern for her. She's very used to it. Very used to it. This actually looks toast. Isn't the grinder sitting over there? No, that's what it's like. I'll go ahead and load it. Yeah, just ground some up in there. That leaves you in this room. You now have Iridel. I thought you were going to say level 3. My bad. Not yet. You now have a smoky crystal orb worth 25 gold pieces. Nice. And you can use it as an arcane focus, but it's not magical. You gave me a life worth 25 gold pieces. Almost. I lived. Almost gave you Put it on the line. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, those shadows popped out and just each took several, I mean, attacks. So I don't know how y'all are feeling. Not as fast. Yeah, and, you know, I'm real tired. Real, real, real tired. Am I able to do Find Familiar... During the long rest? Yeah. So you're trying to go back above? First things first, I do want to retrieve all of the silver arrows that I shot. Is that something I need to do anything special for, or can I just say I have to go back? Because I want those things back. Make me an investigation check with advantage. You gotta take a hit for the luck. Alright, so it was an investigation with advantage, and so you roll twice. What were you investigating again? He's trying to find the silvered arrow. Oh, okay. You're able to find three of them. Nice. The fourth one unfortunately broke. Oh, I only shot three. Oh, that's right. You found three of them. Sorry, sorry, yes. Yeah, so I get all three of them. Nice, awesome. So I'm back to all four. They have survived the fight and now I'm back to this. Perfect. Good deal. Thank you for making those. I wouldn't have even thought about it. They were our knives, you know. We just had them laying around the dining room. So... I don't want to buy them, but... This is going to move you guys. Are we going upstairs? Yes. Are we resting in the house proper? Is that the plan? I think so, because we're right below the... Don't pay attention to the green stuff. I'm kind of looking at some of the green stuff. I'm looking at some of the green stuff. Right, it's this way around. The exact spot that you were in before. Yes. So, I mean, what, we should probably just go to a bedroom, yeah? Or something? Or do we just long rest in here, or what? You could potentially do that. You did just long rest a moment ago, right? Yeah. You could long rest again, though, if you needed. There's a lot of need. Yeah, that was some pretty heavy battles and stuff. We've got to do it at one strength. My thought was maybe we spark a fire in the fireplace that's right in this room if we can. You can. This is a well-stocked den. There was like high bleeding shit in this room as the table does depict. But yeah, you could. I think it makes sense to do it here. I also do want to go ahead and find my familiar at the very, like, just the start of it. Spend that ten minutes getting a crow. So I assume you're, Del, other than that, you're trying to sleep for a bit as well. Can we lock the door? You could. We'll lock the door. You could lock the door. How did we, where's the secret passage that we've been going through? In this corner right here. Is it like a thing on the floor or is it like a... Yes. Yes, there is now. You will notice that... The floor did not look like this to give you guys this first pass through around. So it seems to have somehow modified upon you guys opening it from the bottom up. Because there's clearly a hatch door here now. And it knocked the seam loose or something. Yeah. Okay. Do we want to try to put something on top of it? Whenever I rest, I'm just going to scoot a chair on top of it and sit on top of it. Roll me two D hundreds for the cumulative eight hours you guys are going to try to rest in this room. Because I'm going to start by sitting in that chair and playing us a ballad of our great battle before I pass out to give you guys some inspiration. Did you guys use your inspiration? I have not. I used mine. I have not used mine. I'm going to keep doing it. Inspiration's good. Paul wants to roll the hundreds. You can go for it. That's terrible. That's an 8. That's an 8. An 8? I believe that's an 8. It's two 0s and an 8. Shoot. That is an 8. - Nothing still happened. - Someone else roll up.

  • I did pretty good on my roll, but yeah. - Go for it. - I got 52 last time, I know it's pretty good.
  • I got some pretty bad hundreds today.
  • With my strength, I'm not thinking I can put stuff on my back right now, you know what I mean?
  • Hey, that's twice what I do. - You got to trust what that is.
  • So how does the familiar work?
  • That was inspiring. - At this point.

It's essentially within 100 feet of you, you can use an action to share consciousness with it. It's pretty useful. But it just joins us as part of the party, right? Yes. And I get to choose the type and the form. Yes. So if it finds, you can have it scout ahead and then use your perception as its perception and see stuff. It's very good. I don't think it really can attack, but it can use the help action, which can help give you and your allies advantage on attacks in some scenarios. Depending on which one you summon, it might be able to do a low-level attack. It's very good. It's got like a lot of fucking tech. How do I know what actions it can take in battle? Because it does say a family I can't attack, but it can take other actions as normal. So they're referring to like the helmet. Okay. So like it could peck something's eye to like distract it or something. Do it. Like, nothing that does damage, I would assume, since it says it can't attack. Yes. I'd have to look at it again, but I... But it's kind of like also a shield because it takes damage. It can. It's based on the creature's stats. You guys, once you long rest, you're coming back down the hatch into this area once again, yes? Well, did we? We pretty much explored everything, didn't we? You didn't go down a flight of stairs where you heard strong chimes. Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah, I completely forgot about the chanting, to be honest. And it was right up here. Yeah, I forgot about that. I got sidetracked by that. I kind of looked at it. Which direction was the chanting coming from? Just from the left over there, right? Yeah, it was that direction. It's very strong to the west, which you know to be kind of a general vicinity. We pretty much cleared out everything in all of the other areas. That was really the only place left to go, I'm pretty sure. So we just need to make our way back that direction if we want to clear the rest of it out. I did assume that my strength went back to normal. That'd be crazy at level 2. Getting hit once is game ending, basically, if it's persistent. You couldn't even technically wear the things you were wearing. At one strength, you would be like an infant strength. I'm already a weakling. Yeah. Gray makes a good point. We should go ahead and go that direction. What do you think, Jules? Yeah, I'm down. I'm going to go check out the chanting. Yeah. I'll go ahead and navigate you guys back all the way over here so you can see. You want to give my shield light again after we go down there? Yeah. And you would see more stairs down. Because it's free. It's free. I also have a... torch i can give you i prefer i know i'm just saying for those moments when i'm not around oh yeah we should have we completely forgot about that in that bedroom we could have grabbed you like a few torches to actually use i've got candles and stuff and you know light is just the i could technically when i level give myself to me well oh yeah yeah yeah we're just doing this well i gotta remember too i also have a cantrip where i couldn't make Light and brighter if we need to do that at any point. But I think what we have so far fills up all the rooms we've been in. I just keep thinking I need to remember that because that can be useful. If you've got flames or something you've got in your hand, I can brighten them up. Ghostly chanting will very strongly emanate from the stairs in this room. Y'all are about to be in. Ghostly. Perception check. 10 Thank you. Sorry, perception checks. 14. Because everyone got over it today, at least, thank God. You can really start to kind of discern a few dozen or so voices saying over and over, he is ancient, he is the land. So you can kind of actually make out the chanting that's been happening this whole time. You are also going to notice this room is filled with relics in each of these little cubbies, as you can see right here. Small mummified hands, a carved knife out of human bone, a dagger, varnished orbs, folded cloaks, bags of weird things. So this is kind of like a room of road queries. You can find yourself in. After everything else you named it, there was bags of weird things on top of that? Yes. Okay. Bags of bag one of... Oh. You know, I didn't ask. You said weird things. That's weird shit. If I'm being honest. But that's just a few good little snippets. What do y'all do? Do they seem valuable at all? I'm just curious. Make me a... Investigation check. I'm gonna do that too. Sure. Fifteen. They seem like fucking junk to you. Okay. I have five minutes, so I'm just kind of probably just like the last step of that and immediately dismiss them. You're taking Airedale's word for it. Yeah. Yeah, fourteen. Yeah, these seem like fucking... This is trash. I think we just keep moving, right? Gotta figure out why these people are chanting in our house. In our house! We gotta clear this shit out so we can sell it, man. Gotta tell everybody it's clear. They're gonna roast us on Zillow if we don't. Yeah, really? So you would see... I feel like there's two ways out of this house. Or out of this room. So you would have options. Alright, you got two options. You wanna do a high blow roll? Leave it to chance. I'm cool with that. I'm cool with whatever. You decide that because I know the number. No, I saw the number. Which, high right or high left? Right. Then we're going right. I had to make it fair. That's why we just sent that out. I know it. She's saying there might be one left. Right as this one? Yes, because high is right. Because we are high. So if you go down this, you would find yourself in a large, rusty, iron portcullis that is blocking your path. Can I somehow see if it's in any way a mimic? I'm doing anything in interaction with it. Let's do some perception checks. Does it seem alive? Okay, investigation. I'm definitely doing the same thing. That's a smart idea. We're all traumatized. Oh, God. I only got a six. It doesn't seem like a mimic. I got an eight. It doesn't seem like a mimic to you? It seems like you're a poor case. Can we touch it? With my silver short sword, I give it a... Smart. It sounds like metal, as the iron portcullis should be. Before we open any doors, do we want to check the other path? That's what I was thinking. I kind of want to check the other path before we go through a door. Rusty portcullis is kind of... That seems like the next area, you know what I mean? The chanting was incredibly strong from there, too. It seemed almost like they were on the other side. Yeah, that definitely makes me want to not go there just yet. You would find yourselves now in kind of a prison area, quickly seeing, as you do right here, shackles. Mounted to the walls. Is that like an opening in there? Do you see it? None of these are openings as of yet, but there is a long hallway. I green the last one, so somebody else can. That'd be awesome. I did do that right before that. And you would be able to come down and see that there is just a bunch of shackles. And you do see one skeleton, though. Wait. Like laying on the ground inactive? Yeah, this one is right here. Other than that, you can see most of these are just empty shackles. Looking closer at the skills. Do you have an Olympic cannon? Yes. Also, everyone make me perception checks before you look at the skills. 19. 7. Excellent. 7. Not the best. Can I pet you? I let you in. You're a sweetie. And he was like, sure, I guess. I got to walk by you, but I don't want to walk. 19. Thank you for having me. I've been rolling horrible on those all night, so it's about time. So you and Jables would both see a secret door. I know I put that one in. Hey. Insider information. We found a secret door, Jabels. I'm gonna remove myself from it. We found a secret door. Secret tunnel. Secret tunnel. Uh, can I still look closer at the skeleton before we do anything with the secret door? You absolutely can. Um... Find the skeleton is in a tattered black robe. The only thing of value you would find on him is a gold ring on one of his fingers. With 25 gold. With 25 gold? So it's worth as much as that quartz thing? I don't think I'm going to touch it. You guys can grab it if you want. That's probably not a better. I was thinking I would probably grab it immediately if it was worth as much as the thing that we just did all that for. Are you going to do the go-drink jambles? Is there an extra investigation check I can do to make sure it's not... Shadow tracked? I mean, something like that. Would detective magic be something that would help with something like that? Possibly. I'm gonna go with at least an investigation on it, though, quite first, just to see if anything feels extra off about it. 'Cause I know you said you're just avoiding it outright. I'm just a little traumatized at the moment. It's not bad, 15. It seems normal to me. What do you think? Are you gonna investigate it as well? No. Yeah, if you want it, I'm here. I'm gonna leave it. Maybe if we feel like we're feeling good later. Now he stands up and comes after us. Yeah, that ring is ours. No. No, no, no. Yeah, we decided. Jeez, you see how fucking excited she seems? I think we made the right choice. Yeah, it sounds like it. No, no, no. It was not booby-trapped. Goddamn. I am not a crypt. So I assume you guys are... And then you guys see the door. Yeah, it does end down there, right? There wasn't anything else. It does. It does. You guys would see mostly empty little prison cells with shackles. Does the secret door also sound like the chanting is really strong coming from it? 100%. Okay, so this seems like an alternate entrance to that other door that we were wary about, but we're ready to just go through. I haven't seen a mimic be a wolf. or a fake door thing. That's true. Well, and rusty metal doors would be pretty loud, so... That's very true. Everybody would sneak up. Yeah, so we enter and stay real close to the wall. Maybe peek through instead of just walking right through. So... The chanting stops as you peer into this 40-foot square room. The smooth masonry walls provide excellent acoustics. Featureless stone pillars support the ceiling, and a branch in the west wall leads to a dark cave heaped with refuse, which is back here. Murky water covers most of the floor. Stairs lead up to dry stone ledges that hug the walls. In the middle of the room, more stairs rise to form an octagonal dais that also rises above the water. Rusty chains with shackles dangle from the ceiling directly above a stone altar mounted on the dais. The altar is carved with hideous Depictions of grasping schools and disdain with dry blood. Because of lengthy description. But this is essentially a pretty nasty ritual chamber you guys have found yourselves in. I don't know if I want to stop in that water at all. I'm going to stay on the lintels. Is there anything that I can-- I'm pretty sure it might be like just deep on me. Oh, yeah. Can we tell how deep that water is? If you walk one step closer, you can tell that the water is two feet deep. Oh, yeah, so I would be underwater in action. I am not walking in that. I will stay on the ledges, guys. Are you only, like, three feet tall, four feet tall? Let me look at my stuff again just to make sure. You can always ride on your shoulders. I think I'm three to four feet. I can't even stack. - Yeah, I have one person carrying another carrying a bag.

  • There you go, there you go. - I didn't write like a specific height or anything, but, or no, yeah, I did, three feet six inches. I'm three feet six inches tall, that's what I wrote down. - So yeah, it's like your nose above water. - If you think right here, that's about it. Literally my head and that's it, probably.
  • So, what about the other one?
  • Future personal ones? - Before we do that, is there anything that indicates where the chanting might have been coming from that just stopped?
  • It sounds like it came from the very center of the room.

And what was the description saying was down to the bottom there was like some kind of room with junk in it or something? So it seemed as though there was like a small hobble with some like refuse. Okay. So like it was a dark, more natural cave. You couldn't get very good vision of it. I was going to say, my initial reaction is that before going forward, I might start kind of walking around the outside edge a little bit. So I might start walking up towards the top because we didn't really hear a description of what was up there, except for the door. On the dice? No, not towards the dice, like up towards the top of the screen. You guys make your way up there. Just to... Just to see if... You would see an iron portcullis. Yeah, which has the backs of the door and that is that. Switched to the portcullis that you did not see on the other side. Okay. But there would be more of that kind of like smooth masonry all the way around. Okay. That's really all I wanted to do, just move a little closer so I could see what was up there. Good to know that there's a switch to open the door, because... Might not be a quick escape. Maybe, maybe. But what are y'all going to do? Is anyone going to attempt to go to the dais in the middle? Can I send my raven? Can I go check it out? You can. I'm going to do that.

  • You just have it kind of fly around?
  • Yeah, kind of fly, find like an area right near the ritual spot, potentially like land or, you know, look to see what it sees there that it couldn't see from next to me.
  • Okay, maybe a perception check.

17. As you fly with your raven and see through its eyes and try to get a close and personal look at this dais, it does seem to be just like a ritual sacrificial slab in the middle of this chamber. Nothing much else stayed up to you other than that. Am I able to tell if the blood that I can see is now dry or wet? It's dry. Can you be all attempting to go up there? Sorry, I was, uh... Is there anything that we can tell about the wall? I'm blinking at your cat. He's blinking. Yeah, we're afraid of it. Do we want to go maybe check out that other, a little more natural cave area? Since up top is just the door, we're going to go investigate that a little more before we get too close to the guys. I'm afraid of that shit. Also, I don't think I'm gonna even go to it. I'm definitely gonna stay on the outside while you guys go in. I can lob shots if battle ensues. Sadly, I think what's gonna end up having to happen is I'm gonna have to walk over there to it. So you try to go over here and see what's in this? That was my thought, if that's okay with you. First time she checks every Monday. I just wanted to see what the hell was down here before we started doing anything else. 24. Excellent, excellent. Iridel is seeing a lot. Because mine ended up being 8, even though that's what I wanted to do. 11. 11. So Iridel is the one that really gets a good look at this naturally formed alpha. You'll be able to recognize this half-submerged pile of refuse as a shambling mound. What does that mean? Don't go near it is what I would say very quietly. I've only vaguely heard of that. Is that something maybe we need to do a history check on? Sure. Everyone give it a shot. I don't want to like, you know. I am going to say don't go near it. I got a good roll on that one. That's not bad. 18, not bad. You said history? Yes. Thank God y'all are here. Your deal can make it with advantage because you're a druid and this is kind of a 0-5. Okay. Terrible. 19 plus 120. Oh, 20. So what was yours again? Greg? 18. So y'all two, you're not able to really recall anything even though Travis recalls a lot. But you two... They're able to kind of recall histories, and, you know, the Shambling Mound is a very formidable forest creature that has a lot of health, naturally resistant to lightning. In fact, heals from lightning. Okay. It's just... Okay, I'm just like... So I'm glad that I... Is it, like, naturally... - Violence towards everything, everything.

  • It's a creature of consumption. It's very much a natural force, not something to be reasoned with.
  • Yeah, 'cause the name to me makes me think like, yeah, it's gonna shamble over to you and it's gonna take you in as part of its mound.
  • Is it an aberration? I forget what they are. - Are they just monsters?
  • Maybe, look at the staff.
  • Monstrosity, maybe. 'Cause I know they're large as well. - It's a plant.

Okay, so we should head back the other way. Yeah. I don't want to touch the altar because I think that's why my thought was definitely to come up and just kind of begin. I just wanted to see what it was. So that makes me wonder that maybe they're sacrificing things to the Shambling Mound is my guess. That's a great guess. And I'm not happy with that and I don't want to fight this thing. And that checks out with the monster in the basement that the kids are talking about. Yeah. Big facts. Big facts. To test that theory, we still have that bag made of human flesh, right? Could we like put a book in that and toss it at the altar and see what happens? You could try whatever you want. Are you taking the money out, putting a book in and tossing it? I would take everything out. If that's what we're planning on doing, I want us to have the entrance/exit for the secret tunnel open. We should watch it from there basically. My idea is, as I've been doing before, stand in a doorway, stand far away, my arrow's at the ready before we're about to fire. That would be a really good strategy. We could also go two exits open. therefore reducing the chance that it gets the full party if something does happen. My question is for that door that's up at top, it has that switch to open it. Do we need it to lock it again? Yeah, I don't know. Or would it lock automatically once closed? Because we could have it cracked open and maybe we could even have ourselves peeking out through the secret entrance so we could see what happens and have the familiar come in through the other door. After it's open or something, I don't know something like that one of those kind of variations something where the shambling mount might think it's Wherever we are is a different direction Or we could just block off this whole section not tell anybody about it when we sell the house and see if we can get enough money You have to go all the way into the attic and then take a secret blank eye Right. Staircase tunnel all the way to the bottom. The chance they find it on accident. And this is down... You can't, like, fix it forever. This is down a couple levels. It's not our problem anymore at that point. Right. This is down a couple levels, right? We're in, like, the lower dungeon, right? Because if we take care of everyone who's feeding it... Yeah. And then we don't feed it. Mm-hmm. Is there anything we could, like... Nah, because I don't want to piss it off and not kill it. Is there anything we could do to, like, potentially... I would like to personally interact with it as little as possible. I just feel like a mythic plant at level 2 is not a great idea. Yeah. I'd be okay with weaving. I mean, there's no real... Unless we're just like dying to find out why there's still some mystery shaking going on. There might just be some ghost or something that's going to fight us and then we'll have to fight a ghost and a shambling mound at the same time and I'm not into that. I'm down to see what story blocker makes us come back. This room's important. So what exactly are you trying to do? Leave. Are you trying to leave the house entirely? At least go upstairs. Yeah, well, we got to go upstairs and account for all of our loot and stuff and think about what we... Sort stuff out. Sort stuff out, think if we want to go sell stuff and... And then we can try leaving the house. Keeping us in the house. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, we don't know. The only way to find out is to check, you know? You guys climb up to that den area. You're able to get easily from there to, like, the entrance of a house that you're familiar with. The mist does restrict you from leaving the vicinity of the house, as it did when you first arrived, or came here. Even when I wave the smoky quartz orb at it? Do something. I'm trying to think if there's anything we haven't done aside from like, oh wait, me? Because I'm pretty sure we've explored most of all of the areas. If this is like the last little room thing, that could be the very last thing we've got to do, but we're definitely not. I don't think we're ready to do this. We've got to deal with that thing. We did level one. But that room changed, you said, right, earlier, so at least from the perspective of the hatch opening. Do we notice any other differences in the areas of the house that we've already explored on our way to attempt to leave? You do not. Yeah, I think we've checked all the secret passages, I think. Which actually, that's something, can I do some kind of check? Because I know I've seen all of the secret passages. Can I do a check to make sure that we've actually gone through all of them? Yes, you guys can. Can I use Bless before a battle? I think we're going to have to have you just go to the dance. I don't think we have any other story options available to us. Wait, you think we're just going to have to man up to it? Yeah, I think so. So I could bless us before you walk across the water just to be safe. I think I have my self-shield of faith. Right. Because there's also, I think I have 10 minutes left. We talked about having the familiar. Yeah, that should stay attended. So at least I have that for them. Ah, second. Did we want to try to be weird extra cautious and do the thing with the skin pouch and the familiar taking it over there while peeking through the secret tunnel door first? We could if we wanted. Do that as a quick check just before sending an actual person over? You know what would be funny? Um, we have that flask of Alchemist's Fire. Yeah, we do. Oh, yeah, that's right. I wonder if we could throw that. I got oil, too. The alchemist's fire is a liquid that once it exposes to the air, catches fire. I wonder... It does very little fire damage, but that's what it does. I was going to say, if the Shambling Mound is a plant, would that maybe be really effective against it, actually? Lightning's not, but, uh, you know, uh... One hit, the target takes 1d4 damage at the start of each of its turns. I don't think James would know anything about that. We did pretty good on our history check on that. I did. What would you remember on our history check on that? Is that something that we would be able to know? It was a dirty 20 and an 18. Yeah, I think we were still got over 20, I think. Oh, yeah, 23. Would we know that fire would be effective against it? Or whether fire would be extra effective against it? Like this alchemist's fire? I actually don't even know what that is. It would... You would know that fire is not good. Okay. I didn't want to... Okay, I just wanted to... You never know. If it's plant-based, sometimes you can have a fire. This is like... This is like a dank... It's like a walking swamp. Yeah, okay, yeah, swampy kind of thing. That makes sense. It consumes wherever it fucking walks on to. It looks like refuse, so it looks... Do you have your mini? The one I made for this shambling man? Yes, I'll have to bust him out. But y'all aren't finding the shambling man at this moment, so... It's just a good representation, in my opinion, is why I asked. Oh, I'm glad you think so. I'm glad you think so. Can I find it? Just wanted to double check and make sure. Yeah, you seem to have lost your seat. Yeah, I'm conducted. Lightning, fire is not that great against it. I forget what is good against it. I probably wouldn't say it even if I remembered. Just because... I don't have many good memories of it, I don't think. No, no, my character would not. Any memories at all? I would have known enough, I feel, to say, oh fuck, it's a shambling mound. How many minis? No idea whether or not it's the same thing. It's good that we have a moment because you guys are deliberating on who wants to start walking into the dais. Have you guys decided? Oh my Christ, she's making us do it. I told you. It is the only path. I'm going to end up shielding myself whenever we do it. Before we do it, you wait. You wait. Going to hit. Now, before we get into this, I should strategize a bit and see if I can actually use some of my spells. He's like, what the fuck are you trying to do over there, mother? You're disturbing my chill. Your little kitty cat? Yeah. Actually, I'm going to double check and see if I can see her on the camera. Thank you.

  • Yep.

Standing in the corner of my bedroom window. Keep them with my regular trees. I have two of them, but... Amen. - people's chairs and their boots. I've been chewing through it though. My back the fuck up and chewing dead strategy has been working so far. I'm going to put a lot of focus on my ranged skills from now forward, I think. Y'all are doing a good job taking quick turns too. Once you know what your turn is going to be. Yeah, for me right now there's not a whole lot else I can do. As long as I get back out of the way, it's just... Position myself correctly and hope I roll good. Once I get a few better spells and start doing some actual class-based stuff, probably it'll make a big difference. Exactly. These are one of the best. I need so many of these. No, I'm not surprised all the hot dogs you got in those were good. I also didn't eat basically anything else today. I had a little protein. Fair amount of protein. There's a lot of protein, but it's only 150 calories. It's all I had. Besides, I'm still going to eat a lot. Exactly. That'll get you hungry. What do we think, Gary? Are we gazing it? I'm standing in the open secret passageway with my bow at the ready. Do we want to see what it does if we put a bag of flesh out there or do we want to just walk out there and say let's do the thing? I think those are the two options. I mean, what are we going to do with the bag of flesh, man? Let's test it out and see what happens. That way we're not standing out in the middle of the deep water when shit goes down. Yeah. We take everything out of that right first and then have the raven go drop it over on the... Are we going to... We don't need to put anything else in it because it's just... The raven probably just dropped the raw flesh over there. Yeah. You can just fly over and drop it on there and fly back. Just like drop it on the table and fly back. Are we going to do this while we're, are we going to be fully inside the room or are we going to be behind the room with it kind of cracked open? It didn't matter. Nothing happened. Nothing happened. Sorry. Okay. Okay, well, shit. I've got my book ready. yeah i think uh do we want to use the bless thing so i still have my spell slots or that's probably the scroll oh yeah we could do it by the scroll the bless with the scroll yeah that's a good idea let's also take a look at some of the rest of the uh This stuff that we have in Slythene, the rest of it was useful. Because didn't we have like a chain shirt? Did we give that to anybody? Well, I already have chain armor on. The druid can't wear metal. Is that something I could wear? It might slow me down a little bit. It's medium armor. I believe. Or maybe it's heavy armor. I don't know. Chain shirt? Armor class 13. Weight 20 pounds. You can doff this armor as magic action. Oh. A chain shirt? That's what it's... Cast off chain shirt, is that right? Is that the right thing? Hmm. What did you say? I don't know if it was a cast off chain shirt, but it definitely was a chain shirt. Um... Didn't give a lot of specifics on it yet. Let me see. We do have... I do have to use this as a regular chain shirt. Or health pot. It seems like the same thing. That might have... Or it's medium armor, yeah. Yeah. Okay. They are different, so I'm going to switch it out. Yeah. Switch one out. What is it? What I have in our party inventory to the correct thing. I was like, be careful putting that in the middle. Yeah. We have four health pots. How do we want to hold on to those? Yeah, good call. I'm far enough out of the way. Maybe it might be good for me to have one just in case since I can't do any healing actions. Yeah. I have one on me just in case. Okay, I'll add that to my inventory. Good job. We have that four from that one chest. Yeah, did we put that in the group inventory already? I just had it written down, I don't know. What was it? The health box. Yeah, I have those potions of healing for... Yeah, I was saying, how do we want to split them up for this? I was thinking one to me, maybe just because I don't have any other way to heal and I'm far away from the main action a lot of the time. But then the rest for you guys to split up. I would also be okay not having one if you guys just want to split them both up. I think everyone should have one. Yeah. Maybe two for me because I can heal you. Yeah, that makes sense to me. I can also, if I end up needing to, I can bonus action heal myself with Lion Hands. So hold on to one of them, you hold on to two. And Gray's got one of them. Yep. How's the bullseye lantern? I should have looked that up earlier. I don't think it'll help us with this. It's adventuring gear. It burns oil as fuel, casts bright light in a 60-foot cone, and dim light for an additional 60. Very bright light. Okay, so maybe whoever's going out there carries it with them because it'll fill up the whole room. Not a bad idea? I believe the whole room was filled up with the light from my shield anyway. Yeah. What were we thinking about for the chain shirt? Is that something I could wear? What are your armor proficiencies? It's a good proficiency. No, it's just light armor. Never mind. So I can wear it and you can wear it, right? Well, I'm wearing better stuff already because I have chain mail. So should I go ahead and put it on underneath my leather? You can. Can't really wear metal as a druid. It's got like a whole thing. Do you think it does specify that? I believe you, but I do want to see it. It would be like it's under your natural armor definitions. specifically on your character sheet as much as it is in the PHV. OK. Then I guess it just stays in the inventory because there's no need for us to use it. We'll just sell it later. This is light armor and shields. Yeah. Change that in five Well, the chain shirt's a medium anyway, right? Yeah. Because this says light armor for druids. The item says that I have proficiency in it. This is the only thing that I'm seeing. Seems like it's a druid belief thing based on the lore stuff that I'm seeing. It's not that you lack the ability to wear metal stuff. You choose not to wear it. Yeah, that's what I was saying. It's part of your identity as a domestic order. Yeah. Okay. Then I would not put it on, even though I can see benefits and I can see that I could wear it. It seems like it only, from what I was reading, it only applies to weapons and shields specifically. Like you can use, or not weapons, shields and armor. But you can use weapons and wear jewelry, that's fine. It's weird. I guess it's because the others are more like wearing and they cover more of your body. But jewelry is smaller. You could find bones. That's pretty good. I did say at one point or another you may get access to a medium armor. We're using the blessed scroll, right? Yeah. That's only a minute concentration, right? You want to hold on to that until you guys actually get into combat? You could if you want. It's an action. It's a magic action. Yeah, just do it as the first thing. I'm gonna do my shield of faith before I walk out there but because it's ten minutes. I don't have anything I can do that will help right away. Okay so you're the one going out in the middle? I mean, yeah the person with health and armor, yeah. We haven't done it yet. We're still strategizing. I know you're really antsy to fucking throw a shambling mallet at me. That's why we're strategizing. Can I ask how big this room is? Like, dimension-wise? I'm thinking about, like, the range of my arrows and where I could maybe be standing when we start this. Because I'm thinking about, like, I'm standing in the doorway right now, but it might be better to be standing on the very upper side of the screen up there where I'm thinking. You put the wrong me in the middle. Oh, yeah. So it's roughly like a 40 by 40 cube. 40 foot by 40 foot? Okay, so that's fully within my range. You put the wrong knee in the middle. Force a habit. I know, I know. I can't fault you guys. I will end up out there. I guess you two place yourselves as you would accordingly in this instance as you strategize. I will be one spell slot down when I go out there. You know what I was thinking? Maybe instead of me being in the secret entrance, me being over here by this so I can be ready to open this door and get out that way if needed. Because up here I can still hit everything. I'd be out of your way. That was my thought just because I've got a lot of range. This put him between you and the mound where it is currently. Oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah, the mound itself. I think we need to worry about the second way out. It was just a thought. Unless it looks like the tunnel behind us is going to somehow collapse. And it's not like that door was locked or anything. We didn't even try to open it. That's true. We heard the chanting and we're like, well. That's true, yeah. All right, I was just thinking about it. But yeah, I'll stay in the, standing in the. doorway so I would be not quite all the way at the edge here more like right at the edge here Silver, okay, silver arrow. Overcomes magical resistance, but I don't think that's gonna be much of an issue for arrows. Yeah, yeah, so I'll be using my regular arrows. It's not like a wraith or something, you know? It's a shambler. It's a shambler. It's a shambler, little kink, eh? Is that where you want to be in this engagement, Iredel? I'm thinking about it. Did we decide if I should be using that scroll before or during? I mean, it's... Are you going to be in the water? I think I'm going to be in the water so that I'm able to move to wherever I need to or see both of y'all clearly. If you use it now... Would it, like, potentially wear off before we get into battle? It lasts a minute. Each round of combat is six seconds, so it technically lasts ten rounds. Okay. And you could also still use Bless otherwise if we needed to in combat if we ran out, right? Right, that's why I wanted to use the scroll, because then I still have my three spell slots, so I could still use it in battle if that happens. Okay, yeah. So let's go ahead. We can go ahead and do that. If you want to use it as soon as I touch the altar, you can. Right. You can do whatever you want. Because if there's a non-combat saving throw, that's the thing that I'm concerned about as well. Because it would still give you the d4 for that. Right. So I think we used it. Yeah, I'm cool with that. Since I have it as a... It makes sense. Do it. Sounds good to me. Cool. Okay, so we're going to use that. I wanted the information. Would you mind putting one of those shambling mouths on this map, Austin? No, for no reason. For no reason whatsoever? I'm just gonna make sure it's over in the... Look at that ugly fuck. Oh, hell yeah. You can get it right where it needs to be. I'm sorry, dude. Looking like some refuse for sure. All right, so is that where you want to be, Iridel? In the water? Would you rather be towards the mound or towards up here? I think towards, I don't know, this one. Like this, maybe? Maybe like right here on the steps. You want Hermione to go towards me, not you. Yeah. Like right behind you on the steps over here maybe. Okay. The moment that Jabil climbs onto the top of the dice, you guys are going to hear the chanting rise once more as 13 dark apparitions appear on the ledges overlooking the room. Each one resembles a black robed figure holding a torch, but the torch's fire is black and seems to draw the light into it. Where you'd expect to see faces are voids. One must die! One must die! One must die! They will chant over and over again. Where are they? Like on these things here? Yep, they're all around. These are just columns that are like going up to the ceiling, right? So they're on the same outside ledge that I'm on. So I might be like behind one of them or something. They're chanting that over and over again. One must die. Does that count as one of them? Can I shoot one of them in the head? Probably not, no. I'm not gonna stop you though. Right. I don't like these things. I was thinking about using Sacred Flame on one of them. I mean, if they're shadow things again, that makes me want to use the silver again. Everyone in the room give me either a religion or an insight check. Nat 20 plus five insight. A 12-inch light. Six. Or an 11-inch light. Uri Del immediately recognizes that these re-hears want a ritual sacrifice. So they're essentially wanting one of you guys to die, or someone to die, on this altar. They can't do anything about it, right? They haven't made a move, they're just standing on these things. Can I trick them into thinking something gets sacrificed? That bag of flesh is still there, right? You have what? I can create an image of an object or something. There's no larger than a five foot cube, but interaction would reveal it to be an illusion, but I could make like, I could make a fake dead me because I'm smaller than the five foot cube. I could make a fake image of me being dead on the, on the thing. Would I be able to, can I, if I make the image, can I make it like go from where I am? Like if I go back into here and hide and make it, could I make it walk out over there? Can I do that with my, Minor illusion? It only lasts a minute. I think you would be able to do something like that, but they're not going to be fooled by your vision. No. If you attempt it, you actually are able to pull it off. Well, you are able to, because minor illusion is pretty good as it can be. Based on my insights and religious backgrounds, is there anything else that I can draw upon to think of things that would fulfill the requirements that they're looking for. They want a soul to be sacrificed. A life to be given. Okay, I mean, my familiar... Who would my familiar qualify? No. You would know that, you know, the spectral beings would not... I'm about to just sacred flame one of these fuckers, dude. Okay, I mean, if we're sacred flaming, I'll sacred flame him. They're not affected by the sacred plant. So they're not real. They are chanting. You can't listen to every voice. There is that dead body in the other room. Yeah, but they want a soul. Yeah, that's true. I mean, we didn't touch the ring. Maybe there's something with the ring. What do we have that is equivalent to the human soul? Sick rock ballad. Give them that smoky quartz sphere. Play them some soul music. Can we pull a... Go, my girl. exactly where you guys are standing i'm sorry we're there yeah we're on our spot because yeah i was just sacred flaming for me yeah same just like oh i see you i see you i have continued if they haven't noticed me or if they even can notice i'm behind them so i'm just kind of staying Okay, so I spit on the altar. I do have I could use spare the dying. So we could technically take somebody down to a death save and immediately stabilize them. I want to look at the things that are yelling at us and just be like, does that thing have a soul? Right? The shambling mound? Oh, yeah. Can we sacrifice the mound? That would be, yeah, that would be maybe fulfilling. That would suck. That's what we have to do. We were expecting that to find me exactly what you're trying to do. I'm asking them if that thing has a soul as a point towards them. They will not respond to your question. They won't respond to my question. I Amazon support. Can I literally any support analyze the situation further and the things within the room that might qualify this without sacrificing one of our party? A lot of murder has happened. A lot of murder. Murder is everywhere. In fact, the evidence of murder in this entire dungeon has just been rampant. Grab that ring. We might as well go grab the ring. We'll get that ring first. Maybe it's... She got the ring and we should also grab, I tell you, we should grab the corpse and see if we can at least throw it as a distraction. Maybe it'll slow the mountain down. Maybe it has to absorb that thing first before it comes to us. I mean, I imagine all three of us would be going to grab the ring. Yeah, I don't think we'd go individually. Disrespect these things. Yeah. They have disrespected us. Yeah, they're like, all right, well, uh... We'll be right back. We got you. We got you, fam. We got you, fam. So, the moment that both Jables and Iridil step off of the dais, you are going to hear them say something else. Now they give us feedback. Hmm? They're going to say, "The end comes! Death be praised!" And the Shambling Mount is going to awake. No fucking shit. And start attacking you. Oh, of course. How long did that take? What? That whole... From the time we stepped onto the dais to the time we stepped off and they said that and he woke up. That's true. 30 seconds? 15 seconds? Something long enough for the blast. How long y'all been on this dais overall? We've been sitting here like y'all been talking about like the different things and thinking about stuff, sacred claiming, so it's, it's, are you asking for your 10 minute shield of faith? No, I'm asking, no, I'm just curious. It's not just like 30 minutes or anything like that, but it's been at least like five now to seven minutes that y'all have been kind of like doing different things and asking questions on this dais. So you said he's active and you said initiative. Is that what you said? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Eighteen. balancing between nat 20 and god 2. So 4 total. At least I'm in the furnace today. Watching it teeter. Just get robbed. That's fresh, isn't it? Is it? Oh, shit. Oh, yeah, I think it was mine to hit, and I was busy. All right. Six. Six. 18. Four. Four. Shit. Maybe kind of. So we're only out. Let me put on some music for me to try to do this now. So, not surprisingly so, it's going to be Iridale at the top of the round. I'm gonna use Bless. Okay. On the three of us. That's a good first turn. And then... Yes, I'm produced flame. It's ready to go if I need it. Okay. That'll do it. Sounds good. That takes it to the mail. Jamble. On over to you guys. It is a little bit further back here, so it's going to have to take its full movement to get right about here. And then it's going to use its action dash to get right next to both of you guys. And that is going to be its turn, which takes it to Jamble's. At least I'm in a good position for worship. Shambles around the weekend. Shambling man. Gotta open up with a luck point swing. That gives you advantage, right? Yeah. I was trying to decide about silver versus my regular long sword. Because I don't know if it has any resistances I really need to over call. I guess since I don't know, well no, because it's also not undead so I won't get the power. Yeah, I'm just gonna use my regular one, so... God, that hits. It's 23. Yes. It's your desk. Should I have rolled initiative for the familiar? Yeah, just, yeah, makes sense to me. It'll be 8 Dimash. What manner of damage? It's a long story, but I'm just flashing. Flashing, guys. What? You don't have two-handed weapon fighting, do you, right? As a paladin? Two-handed weapon fighting? What do you mean? Like holding one in each hand? Yeah. Oh, no, I've got a shield in one hand. I've got two weapons. That's right. I have two weapon fighting. You're the one with two weapon fighting. I've been swapping them out. Yeah, so I could dagger in short swords. I wish I had so many more spell slots. It's such shit. They didn't give me an extra one when I leveled up. Hopefully you get some more fun in level 3. I do. I do. I'm gonna spit at it. Okay. The mound loves that. I bet. Gray. It's not focused on our boy Gray. It's not. It is not. music Yeah, so nothing special regular - Do I have advantage if it's attacking the others? - Yeah. - Okay, so.

  • You guys have eyes on your friends right now.
  • So I'll go ahead and do the usual two and we're blessed, correct? - Yep. - So the usual two and then the usual two afterward.

Let me take this. - You just wait until it's like three or four D6 for sneak attack. - Jesus. - Yeah, yeah, it adds up. - Yeah. - You get a crit, yeah. So you get more of them at like level 5 or like level, you know, different levels. Alright. Good thing I have two because that one was an 8. 11 plus, what do you need? You guys cashed. Alright, cool. 11 plus 1, 12. You want to try it? Sure. It's a 12. I'm glad I had all the extra stuff because of that. I don't know if I need a 12. Dang, missed the first shot. I don't have anything else to do. I'm just going to stick where it is. If it hasn't noticed me because I missed, I'm going to stick nice and in. No, no, it's got its eyes on the prize. I'll just do my usual function of being the extra damage happening in the background for the rest. Thank you. Sacred Flame. Okay. Dex save on my part. I need 920. Okay. Do what? He gets a 9. 920? Good time for that. Yeah, yeah. Goody's getting out of the way now. That's it for that. I don't really have any bonus actions to take. But I guess it would be the familiar. So I send it to distract before Jables's next turn to try to get him advantage is the help action. To the mound, he is going to make his multi-attack. He's going to make one tendril attack against you, Jables, and then he's going to try to engulf you, Geardum. So let's do the attack first. Engulf. It's a shamble. It is a shamble. - Uber 20? - How much are we? 16 plus 7. Yeah, yeah. Yes, that will hit. So he's going to do his little attack against you. It's going to do 5 bludgeoning and... I really miss my berserker's rage sometimes. Resistance to bludgeoning and pursuant slashing. Yeah. Yeah, I can see why. Your bludgeoning is going to do three lightning. Skeleton. I'm going to impose on you, Iridel, a DC 15 strength saving throw. DC 15 strength saving? Yes. Do you have inspiration and bless? I will definitely use inspiration on this one. Thank you. That's just two of these and a d4. Yes. The highest number. So that's a 19. Beautiful. Excellent. Excellent. So you were able to overcome and in this turn take it from Jables. Nice. And I have advantage on the attack already? Yes. Yes. Because of your ability. I know what I'm doing. One off, man. It's gonna hit, though. It's like 25. 19? Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Give me the digital. I'm going to be six slashing. And for my bonus action, I'm going to do lay on hands, give myself five health. Before I spit on it. Great. Of course. The mound is probably just gonna absorb that shit. It's not lightning spit, so it won't heal it. Yeah, is my turn again? Yep, sure is. All right, so yeah, and then I've got the whole advantage thing, so I'll roll twice and see what happens. I got a nat 20. Distract him. He's huge. So yeah, I got the nat 20 on that, which I'm assuming... You got a nat 20 on your... Well, I rolled two of them. The second one was a nat 20. That's what the advantage is for. You can get the nat 20s today. You get the sneak attack as well. So it's going to be whatever you roll plus 14. Gave me two dice, both were fives. Give me two d6s, both were fives. Actually, that works because you roll sneak attack anyway, so you'll take 10. So it'd be the two fives plus two. So it's 12 plus 14, so you deal 26 damage to it. Nice. Smack him. Smack him fucking hard. He does not like that. I assume that's going to get angry at me.

  • Okay, can I assume it's your turn?
  • Yeah, I'm not gonna do anything else at this point. I'll just take that as a very good hint and I'll say, okay, and then wait.
  • Yes, here we go.

Um. I'll go with that sacred flame one more time. At 13, so it's safe. And I'll go ahead and do that help action again, get some advantage going if successful. Is it familiar? Now it's the mount's turn. I assume that's your turn, yeah? Yeah. I'm going to see if it notices that that damage came from behind it. It does not. So it's going to continue to do what it did before, and it's going to take its tendril attack against Jables, and he's going to try to engulf you again. Okay. DC 15. And he misses Jables this time. The only reason I said for the over 20, I do have 21 AC right now. Oh, yes. Yes. Yes. Which I know is a lot. You tried to make it a lot. You did this on purpose. Six. You are engulfed. So you are now pulled inside of the shambling mound. Yep. And you are essentially grappled. But this grapple is also going to impose blind and restrained. We know you're a disadvantage on deck saving for attacks of disadvantage enemy attacks everything and Blind and restrained are super similar. Yes. Like the only extra thing blind adds is you can't see. Yeah, automatically availability checks without quaresight. Exactly. Are these put on just me? And could I telepathically see through my familiar? You can using your action still, yes. You're the only one who's a ghost. But I can do that with their action if I needed to. With my failure's help action. I think read, because I think you actually have to use an action or a bonus action, if it doesn't specify it's a free action, to impose control over it. When you're out of combat, usually it doesn't matter. You can do that kind of stuff for you. So what I'm reading for 5.5e is the familiar gets an action, a core combat action on the turn, like its own turn. that it can do help, deliver touch spells, dash, disengage, hide, and interact with objects. It can mimic, it does mimicry, has high mobility, flight and scouting, and just that there's no attack action. So based on my read, the telepathy is persistent and the Familiar gets its own action independent of the actions of, which is like how I've been doing the help actions. Yeah. It's a bonus action as well, but you can telepathically communicate with it freely. So that's my answer there. Yeah. If you wanted to see through its eyes, though, and hear what it hears and take over its perception for a moment, that's a bonus action. Okay. Sounds good to me. So it could just tell you what's going on or if you wanted to do the bonus action. You can continue to freely tell it, like, do X. The familiar spell is just so good. But that is going to be its turn, so it now has that happening to you, and that takes it to Jables. And I still have advantage from that last... from what you did on your familiar last time, right? Yes, because the familiar would still be doing its... So does Bless automatically break here or do I have to do like a save to keep it going? Not too much damage. Oh, nice. Nice. Nice. That's where I went to the stats before. I was like, oh, what happened? I was like, oh. I need to run the restaurant real quick. 20. Would have been cool. Would have been cool. It's going to be 18 to hit. That is. I'm thinking about just throwing out a smite this time, but like... God, I've only got so many. I was surprised at how much damage I did without hitting. That was such a... That was a very good, lucky hit. Do I have to declare smite before my damage roll? When do I have to declare my smite? You know what I mean? Immediately after I hit? Like, before I roll my damage for my attack? I'm just curious. I've never... Because I know, like, I have the spell written down, which is just, it's a bonus action, you know, after a hit. So I assume it would be before I did anything else, but... Mine is fine? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That is the one I'm using. Must be declared immediately after you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack. Yeah. That's what I thought. That's what I thought. That's what I'm thinking before I roll this damage. So we can have these two in, so he makes the hit before he uses it. Immediately upon hitting, he's using a bonus action, right? Yeah. That's what I thought. What? Oh. Oh, choices. I'm going to sit on it for now, I think. Okay. So you're just going to do regular damage? Just regular damage. Hit me with that regular damage. Three. Three. Three sessions. Three, three, three. Because I rolled a goddamn one. Damn. You hate to see it? See, but I hate to see it even more if I was using a fucking spell slot. That would also have been... My turn. Just back to the plain old... Air shot? Yeah, sure. What did we get here? 13. That was with advantage and blessed? Oh no, I did not use blessed. 13, blessed, and that was with advantage, but add 3, so... 16. That hits. Nice. So I'm talking about, and then it's still the sneak attacks, so it's an extra d6. My third round, which that's good. That brings me to six plus two, eight damage. Ojo Damone, very good, very good. Okay. I see that's your turn. Yeah, I'm just going to stick with it. Did anybody take damage while it was gone, right? No. Going to take a little bit of damage on the start of your turn, Iridil, because you are inside of this thing. 17 lightning damage. What? You take 17 lightning damage at the start of your turn because you're inside of 60. And there's nothing I can do about that? It's just like, I just take the damage? Do you have like lighting absorption? No. It did roll back. No, you said a little and I saw how many dice you picked up. I was like, that's not gonna be a little. Uh, so, how did death saves work? Uh... You're unconscious? I'm at zero. Okay. What was your max health? Seventeen. Damn. You don't have any kind of reactions to absorb, like, elements? Is it true? I have necrotic and radiant defenses. I have, I don't, there's like herbalism kit tools. Absorb elements would be a spell. For spells I have, I have good berries, healing word, speak with animals, thunder wave. Reduce flame, sacred flame, spare the dying, thorn whip, and light. Cool. Well, you're going to be making me death saves on the beginning of your next turn. Okay. So... So we see Eridal go unconscious, huh? Yes. Will you be able to see the parts of his body that are not inside of the Shambling Mound or, like, left? Shit. Oh. He gets, as he gets gotten pretty badly by that. Does his familiar get to do anything? Yeah, his familiar still have turns. It's last command that it was given by you is to like attack this thing or help action this thing, right? Then it would continue to do that. Well, that's useful. Yeah. But you won't have to do anything right now. It'll be on your next turn. And you'll keep them... To yourself. Exactly. Which I think passes above 10, fails below 10, right? Yes. Is 10 a pass? It's a pass, right? Yes. 10 or above is a pass? Yes. I'd have to look it up. So I keep whether they're a pass or a fail from everyone. Yeah. I mean... I track it. If you fail three times, you should go very slow. But if I fail three times, then... Yes. Well, I figured that was the case. Or if I pass three times. If you pass three times, you stabilize. If you fail three times, you die. Or if someone comes and attacks you, it's automatically two failures. Okay. All right. Yeah. I assume that's my turn. That is a point. Here is a point. Thanks to the is going to take its attack against you, Jable. Cool. That's 12. Negative. All right. That takes it to Jables. Am I within touching range? You could, you could like... Okay, well first I'm gonna swing at this thing. One of his legs are like hanging out? While I've got the advantage. I'm guessing I don't have bless right now. Negative. You gotta ask. 18 to hit. It's gonna be six slashing on the motherfucker. My bonus action. I'm going to do a Lay on Hands to give Iridel And I can really hold this a couple ways because even just giving him one will stabilize him. Right? Can you go negative? Yes. So like technically I shouldn't know that he's just at zero, correct? Yeah, no, he can't go negative in that way, but you can take damage that. I see what you're saying. Okay, so I'm going to give him one then from my lay on hand. I'll give him one. I'll keep on that. What, what, you want me to give him five? You give him all five? You saw him take damage at the beginning of his turn. Oh, well... Considerable amount. He's gonna take damage again. Oh my god, the save! You take him to one! Saves him from doing a death save. Got a few of those, you know? Matter of fact, attacks you. Oh right, yeah, 'cause it's two. What happens if you're stabilized and it takes damage? Same thing myself. We're going to cross that bridge. And what would be the proper way to communicate that in the future? Because obviously, I gave the specific numbers because I'm still new, but the party wouldn't know that, those specifics, right? Like what specifics? Like when I go unconscious. You can definitely say I got knocked unconscious or like I was bloody or things like that. Like, yep, I'm down. Or yeah, I'm unconscious. Definitely something you can say, really, if you are unconscious. Cool. Now... I just didn't know how the mechanics worked on it initially, so that's why I wanted to... I thought 17 was going to bring you down. I got two sixes and a five. This is brutal. It's because of all those dodges I got earlier today. I was astounded. I was like, oh my god! It was brutal. Why? The number was like... Minimum three? Now I can really metagame it? Thank you. Damn it. Fucking stupid. That's fucking... I don't like that. You think he's going to take minimum damage? Am I able... How much is a regular health pot? Do I have to use an action though to give him one? It would be an action. Potion is a magic item. As a bonus action... I was telling her not to Google it. I have it right here though. What is it? As bonus action, you can drink or administer it to another creature within five feet of yourself. The creature that drinks the potion gains 2d4 plus two. 2d4 plus two? Yeah. And it is a bonus action, not a primary. It's written on there. It says, bonus action. I can give it to someone within five feet. You can look it up. I don't know. That's what I said on his DMV MeOn. Okay. Yeah. Of course, ultimately, it's your fault. Well, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the other. That's just news to me. I mean, potions are one of the things that's changed the most. The source on this one is Dungeon Master's Guide. I believe you. What were you saying about the potions? I'm gonna give Java a motherfucking healing potion. Well, you can't see his head. Huh? His head's not in there because he would be suffocating, so you would be able to... I'm gonna ask how about anybody else want that last burger patty that's in there? Because if not, I'm gonna snag it. I'm good. So then he can roll this 2d4 plus 2. Do you want to roll that? I don't know. I mean, it's his health, you know? Who do you want to roll it? You are the one administering it to me. So you want me to roll it? That's all you got to say. That's all you got to say. What are you rolling? Your health, for the health question. Oh, please. Great, that's five. That would have been the maximum I could have given you if I lay on hands anyway. That's why I had one of the health potions. And now we can pray. So that brings me back to five, right? Yes. Yeah, pretty funny. I hate shambling, man. So much. Shooting that bitch. I expected as much. Shooting that bitch right now. Still blessed, so two rolls, top of the two, and then whichever, and then the thing, so 18 plus... 18 definitely hits. 18 plus two. It's still a sneak attack, right? Because they didn't figure out that I was getting attacked. So, one, two. Seven plus two, nine. Nine, nine. It's bloody. It's bloody. If a plane could be bloody. In fact, it was bloody like an attack or two ago, but we're just going to gloss right over that. Other stuff was happening. Now you guys would really know this is bloody. Why do I have a feeling it's just going to shock our man unconscious again? Shock who? Our man unconscious again. The odds are not in his favor. I'm going to be real honest. I know. Five health on three D6s. But they can't do enough to just kill him with it right there. That's the nice part. It would have to also swing on him and waste his death saves and stuff. Exactly. Yeah, if I do the average, he goes down. You would have to really want to kill him. You'd have to be like your full job. Do I? Do I? I don't know. You might. I don't know. I think those shadows would have... You might want to send a message. I don't know. If I wanted to kill Jabba, those shadows would have done it. I don't have them. Oh, yeah, have them all just do a sneak attack before... Exactly, take your fucking strength all the way down to zero and just kill you outright. I love that. I love that. What an enemy that is. They just put level twos against that. The grips are fun. The first one y'all ever fought was also, like, I was reading that stat block, like, God! Does what? Yeah, they don't fuck around down here. I'd like to take a little bit of something from you. You know, I like it. Yeah, I've read that this is a good beginner campaign. Here they are. They're just like, hey, by the way, you can fucking die in this game. It's a real introduction. It teaches you not to be too attached to your character. This is true. This is true. So, it is your turn here, Dom.

  • You hit it, nice.
  • Did you already do the bullshit?
  • No, I was waiting until he sat back down.
  • How do the mechanics work on, so your health can only go to zero?
  • Well, you're at five right now.
  • Well, the way it works is that-- - I'm just trying to make sure I understand the mechanics of it.
  • When you go to zero, you start making death saves. Now, if there's an instance where, let's say for example, if you had five health max and you take 10 damage, Like turn, you like that.

So like if you were to take 34 negative, since you have 17. Okay. So that's the only instance you have to worry about. Yeah, if you go, sorry. Okay. So to let you know, Matt, if you go double your health negative, then you're done. There's also some spells like disintegrate, where like if it reduces your health to zero, it's in the text of the spell, like you just turn to dust. That's something similar to the specter. But there's some crazy shit like that too. Let's see if you don't go down because of this. And also like that whole constraint has been reduced to zero. I rolled two twos and like that's not looking good for you already. Yeah, because the next one has to be a one. It is a one. Oh, so I go limp. I wondered if I had just rolled one one instead of two twos. You have to roll almost in your main thing. Almost. But not in your main thing. I might have rolled one more on the... So you go down. The familiar does the same thing. It takes it to the mound. The mound, for 20, it doesn't have like a bite down attack. It just says 10 growths. It's a shame. It is going to attack 14. No, it's not going to hit. So it misses the attack. Jason to James. If I don't quit, I'll figure something out. I don't know why I wrote that. Wishful thinking. I missed. That's an eight. Okay. Yes. Use a spell slot to do Cure Wounds on Iridel. Oh, excellent, excellent. 2D8 plus my charisma modifier. Hell yeah. Eight plus seven plus three is going to be 18. Nice. Nice. Nice. Nice. Beautiful. I put my hand on him. I fucking heal him to full. I look over to the plant. I'm going to have to go back to that well. 19. I hit? I forgot to add that. Still a hit. We're not blessed right now anyway. It's a sneak attack. Ooh, 10 plus 2, 12. Nice. Nice. Looking good. Iridel. You get to take a turn, maybe. Is, uh... Do you still have to... Yes. Are they bloody? The plant is bloodied. The plant is bloodied. It's been bloodied. And you take ten. You're alive. I am alive. He's up. He's bloodied. She's bloodied. She's up. She's bloodied again. She's up. Oh. You got any good stuff? Now is the time. I don't really have much. I guess what I got is Sacred Flame, Dex save. It roll. Yes, it wants me to do it in real life. Three. Trace. Trace radio. All right. And I'll produce flame. That takes it to the mound. You're still doing the help action. Excellent. It's going to 26 the attack against you, so I'm pretty sure that's going to hit. Seven. Then it's going to deal the seven bludgeoning and six lightning. Okay. I am bloody. And then it takes it to you, Jibs. I'm really happy with this thing. But at least I get advantage on it. I wrote two 13s. That's a 15 to hit. Glancing blow. Glancing blow. Half of three. And I'll lay on hands myself for my five. Okay. I'm still bloody, but... Let's see if you can do the final blow on this thing. My little sister was hoping she would be able to feed my cat, but... It's not the case. We could end here... We could end probably right after the battle if we finish it soon, but also I could just give her dry food from her automatic feeder from right here and not worry about it. I'm thinking about doing that. There we go. The future. The future is now. She usually gets wet food, but... It's been a weird weekend. She's been getting weird. She likes the dry food better anyway. You guys want to watch on the camera on my phone when I send it out? Sounds adorable. Yeah. Yep. Cool. Yes! She likes the dry food better than the wet food, but she eats the wet food. What's weird is I found she'll eat the wet food better if I open the can directly in front of her and then hold it in my hands while she eats out of it. Otherwise, she won't touch it, mostly. But do it that way, and she'll eat, like, the whole can out of my hands. It's ridiculous. It's that bonding moment, man. Anyway. I don't want it, but. I'll see you here. Exactly. I will go ahead and roll twice. Highest is 13. And then we're not blessed right now, right? Right. 13, unfortunately, does not... Don't you add your dex to it? Or is there like a 13 on the dice or something? Well, it was 13 and then it... It adds a plus four, I think. So that was your weapon attack. Yeah. Well, damn. Sorry. If it hasn't noticed me still... I don't want it to necessarily notice me, but if it's close to dead, I'm considering moving closer. Give it one more if you want. Super afraid. One more round of Irredale getting shot. I'll just hang out. I'll just take my shot and hang out back here. I've done pretty good so far. I'll take a miss. Yeah, bring it. Bring it. I just don't have any gas. You'll know when I tell you what happens. Yeah, I'm sorry. I need a mess, so I think you're at seven. Okay. There's nothing else I can do much. No, it wasn't. Yes, it was a six on one of them. Oh, my God. And then a two, so. Yeah, I'm knocked out. You want to take it to the mound? I take it to the mound. Are they attacking me? It's attacking the bucket. With disadvantage. At least you're not having a real good time. Because of luck, I'm sorry. So it misses. You got two tens? Uh, Jables. And I assume the familiar is doing the same thing. Oh yeah. It's trying its hardest, you know? It's watching me go in and out of consciousness. I finally got the net toy. I'm smiting the fucker. Love it. Make up for my miss. You're about to say it better. Thank Christ. There's no way. You can roll me and give me the complete damage just to see. Just to see? I'm pretty sure. So the sword damage... The 16 on the sword damage and... Dog shit roll on that, but it would still be 19 on the smite damage. So what? 35 overall? Okay. You obliterate this thing. It deserved it. At least I got in there and did a good first hit because that miss was... Nice job, y'all. Nice. Did you get ashamed like that? Now we gotta tend to Iridel. Yeah. Yeah, Iridel's not... So what are you guys gonna do immediately? Because Iridel is gonna make me at least one death saving throw as you guys start pulling her out of the shambling mouth. Pray to the gods for level three on me. I will say, if we're able to do this next little bit, and if y'all get out of the house... So... We could always take a... One of the health pockets out of... Oh, yeah. I'm sure they would be fine with us rummaging through them. Yes. So you're able to easily pull Iridel out, rummage through her pockets, and, like, chug one of them. Do I have to roll the... Can he roll it this time? Yeah, if you're administering the potion. You give it to him. I've got bad hands. What am I rolling for that? 2d4s. 2d4s? Yeah, I mean, that's okay. There's a little B4s right there. Let me see. I don't even know how to read these. One's easier to read than the other. I missed the other. That one's four. I'm sorry, three and two, five. Plus two, so seven. Seven, okay. No, it was way better than what I rolled. Yeah. Cool. Because I rolled a one and a two, so he had five. Thank you. That was a rough one. You got very unlucky getting engulfed. Mm-hmm. You know, it could have been worse. It could have been worse. That first shot of mine, I missed that very first one, but that first one that actually connected was cool. If I could have crit like two rounds earlier, three rounds, four rounds earlier... And on top of yours. You can feel the atmosphere of the entire dungeon change. You feel very cold and very sad as you kill the shaman. So all the shadows, all the shadow people are gone? Gone. I'd stand in the middle and yell, are you not entertained? Are you guys going to go to leave? I'm going to say, yeah, if there's nothing else, we can't, like, pull anything valuable out of this fucking shambling mound. As usual, the shambling mound's probably just made of gross shit, yeah? It's refuse. You guys took a look in there, it's refuse. Cool. Yeah, I'm cool with getting the fuck out of here, because I'm pretty sure we've thoroughly investigated everything down here. Fuck that ring. Fuck the ring. Yeah. So, I assume that you guys are going to go back to the upper dungeon, of course. Mm-hmm. And from here, you would take... Yeah, or we could even just go up to the wolf room. From here, you would know the quickest way. Instead of going all the way up and having to descend all three staircases from the attic, you could easily go to the den from right here. So I assume that's what you're going to try to do, yes? Yeah, that's the plan. All right. We're done with doing-- Sorry. As you guys head to that floor, you are going to see that there have been a few architectural changes since you were here last.

  • Sounds pretty dope. You know why?
  • The room now, I know, it's funny, I could have turned it off if I had anticipated y'all actually going into this, but I got very high. But this room now, instead of being the very calm, clean den that you were in before and rested in, The fireplace is now billowing black smoke. And we are going to actually enter an initiative count. As you guys attempt to leave the house, and it tries to kill you on your way out.

Good news, you guys are pretty much right at the exit. We don't really have to roll initiative because it's just the house at the end. But we're going to go, and y'all are going to declare where y'all are at here. Because there's going to be things that happen if you're in turn in certain spaces. My house is about to try and kill me, dude. I don't have anything, bro. This house is going to kill me. So y'all would start right here. And you would have your full turns to do and declare what you're doing as you're leaving. You would also notice that instead of the doors being there, they are now slashing scythe blades. So you're in a room full of Poisonous black smoke as well. You're able to take... You're able to take your full turn. You won't take damage from the smoke until you end your turn inside of the smoke. So, who wants to go first? That did answer the question. You guys can decide amongst yourselves who wants to go first. Or we can do it by decks. I'm not able to walk back into that hallway and take a short rest and use some hit dice. Right now, if you guys wanted to take a short rest before we did this, take a short rest. I'm for a short rest. I'm 100% for that. Yeah, let's do that. Or this house might kill me. It might kill me anyway. Same. Same. Doesn't really make a difference for me, of course. I've been staying so far out of the way, I don't want to get hit at all because any kind of one hit from that thing probably would have killed me immediately. It was doing a lot of damage. It was doing like 12 damage on average. Yeah. What are the rules for the heal? So it's whatever your hit dice are, and you have two of them. So yeah, I think it's eights for you. Can you regain all your hit dice on a long rest? Which we haven't short rested since our last log in. Cool. All right. So now that you all have had a chance to roll your dice-- Then you add your con modifier to whatever you roll as well.

  • One, two, and then two, so 11.
  • Well, you get to add it to both of them. So nine and four. - 13. - Yeah, yeah. 'Cause you don't have to use all your dice. Each one's a different, you know what I'm saying? - Mm-hmm. - The cool thing about the hit dice during the short rest.
  • So, who's going first now that y'all have been able to regain your health? Move yourselves where you can go. It roughly does translate square-wise. Um.

And the doors are sides? Yes. Where you just dragged to, basically. Yes. What about windows? What do the windows look like? Windows are boarded up and bricked up. And bricked up? Like I can see in between the slats, I see bricks. That's not cool. Yeah, my first thought was definitely check for the windows first, but then the fireplace is billowing the smoke. There's not really much we can directly do about that. We don't have anything in there. I don't know what's going on first, but... Yeah, yeah. - Anybody dying to go first? Not particularly, but I will if we need to. Same thing, just so I can tank some of the booby traps if need be. How long did it take us to get up here after fighting the fucker? I'm done with this. Wait, what was the question? Which one? No, the one that was answered not very long. How long it had been since we fought the guy, but we took a short rest, so it's been 30 minutes. Getting back on short rests yet except half of it's fine. Yeah, I can go first if y'all want. It don't matter to me. Yeah, I'm kinda at a loss what to do. I will cast Guidance on myself, uh, 'cause that seems like one of the most helpful things I can do for myself right now. And then... I'll start moving. So we can check this bitch out. Is the whole room filling with smoke or is it just mainly right around here right now? Did it's poisonous smoke, toxic smoke? Yep. You're not feeling good about the smoke? Not feeling good about the smoke. I'm going to move a bit, start triggering some stuff. You don't really want to fuck with the dives. I don't remember if there's anything useful in there. I bet everything's changed. Move to about here for now. Promise action-wise, I can't, will you let me move anything in the room, or what's, uh... Are you not gonna try to just run straight out? What, straight into the fucking sights? I mean, they're, like, swinging back and forth, but you could probably jump through it. Okay. Well, I had a different, I had a different idea of it. Yeah, I was imagining, like... No, like... More like a Okay, so the classic like the classic fucking blade beyblading the entrance like I was like, oh That's about as far as I can go right there you I give myself guidance That way I have a d4 for my next minute you are going to take a DC 10 Constitution say it though. Guess what? I've got guidance. He's going next. What is-- oh, is it just damage? Yep, seven points of damage. Oh, OK. You guys make this mad dash out. Do you have an idea of what you want to do? I'm still thinking a little bit. Okay. Yeah, now that I know that fucking... Yeah, I'm going to say, I've got a question that I want to ask you. Yes. Is there a potential that I'm short enough that I'm underneath the smoke that's filling the room? No, unfortunately. Oh, damn. I was like, maybe I could be underneath it and... No, I'm not safe for that, no. Okay. Um... I'll just go ahead and go. Um... Through the middle of stuff, I'm just gonna... I would just go through directly this way as I would go through. And I have 30 feet. How much is each square? Five. Five? You have roughly... You can get exactly where your buddy is because you have the same movement. If you want to dash, you'd be through the doorway and all the way out the doorway. Okay. So... You can dash to use double your speed. I just used it. Yeah, so I would get here and then I would be watching the timing of the thing and then dash to get through the blades. Okay, as you action dash, you walk up to the blades, make me a DC 15 Dexterity saving throw. Okay, would that just be clicking on this one over here, I guess? So it gives me a plus four, so 20 with the plus four. You pass and pass through the blade doorway without incident. Nice. So from 30, 5. That is this that you pressed? 15, 20. That would be like right there. So you could get in here and you would be able to see that all of these, actually these two are also. Same thing? Okay. The last one's on. Fine. I will call that out to everybody, too. It looks like all the doors are like this. I'll say that out loud so everybody knows. Because the room you're in currently, I'll go ahead and move this guy over a little bit. There is also a fireplace in this room, so you will have to still make me the DC-10 Constitution saving throw. Okay. I got 20. Nice. You do not take any damage from the poison. You are good to go. Yes. So, Iredel, what are you doing? Making the dash? Do you have a bonus action dashing as well? I kind of, now that I know that there's, you know, bladed doors all the way across, I'd like to kind of investigate this area over here to see if there's any other egress that might be Available. Yeah, because you can see there's some... Because if I can bypass those by getting through here, that would be ideal. So, as you use about half your movement to come right here to really get a good look at this interior wall, you'll notice that the exterior walls are like solid brick, but the interior walls at some points seem like rotted. Okay. Do I know which points? Like... like it all seems sad we could even is this an exterior wall these are this so exterior

  • Yeah, 'cause if that other, yeah, I see what you're getting at. If that corner area is still considered inside, then there would only be, is this, you said all of these doors, does that include this? - Not this last one, 'cause this is like a hinged gate. - These are big wooden doors.
  • Oh, okay. - So this is the main door, and then this is the door to the foyer, whatever you call this.
  • So what would we be able to? Like, does this count as interior wrongs?

I'd say that would count as interior. I want to swing my staff at this. This section right here. You need your full movement to get all the way to the corner, and you're going to swing your staff? Yep. All right, let me read something real quick. Maybe I can just dash right back through that one and not have to deal with going through the others. Okay, roll me an attack roll. 6-7. Three. No, you need to do 20. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, for success, for attack. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. 13. Yeah. So now we're on the damage as well, but it will be double damage because you're attacking. But that is just enough to actually break open this section of the law. Thank you. But I'm out of movement, so I can't pass through it yet. 18. And you're good. And so that was everyone once. So now everyone make me their decisions again. I see him breaking that wall and that sounds awesome. So it's like 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 to get over here. Is there already a hole? Yes. Like I can just finish busting through it by just running through it? Yes. Because then it would be 30 to get right here. I could dash out. But I mean, can I hold my dash as I wait for my friends? Wait and dash out with them? Yes. Like how I would hold an attack? Sure, yes. I don't want to leave them behind. It feels like a bitch if I leave them behind. You finish busting through and you're basically standing in the hole like, come on, guys. So Jables has effectively escaped the house alive. What are the other two doing? For my turn, I'm basically, I mean, I came over here to check this. I've heard what's going on here. I don't want to run through to you. I'm gonna take my chance with just one and I'm gonna... Run action dash? Yeah, I'm gonna do the dash. Can I do the rest of my movement after the dash? So dash through and then, yeah, that's what I'm gonna do. Yeah, so make me the deck saving throw again with advantage because you just passed through that same door, right? Okay, so run through two. Two of these throws. Let's see what happens. Good thing. I got a nat 20 on the second roll. Right through that shit. So yeah, I'm as far as I can go. And I think I can get out the door because I've got 30 feet. Yeah, I've got 30 feet. I go through the hole that I made that everyone else already went through. You guys successfully bust out of the house and you are going to see it actually catch on fire and like burn down to the ground almost in kind of like an odd magic like way too fast kind of deal. Yes. Cool. Cool. Glad we looted as much as we did. I wonder if we can still sell the land with that deed. Most of the loot that you took, like for example the fancy jewelry from like the coffers in one of the bedrooms, that stuff immediately ages to dust. Dang. The only things that don't are the magical items, the potions, the spell book. Unfortunately, all the regular books that you took also turned to ash. The leather-bound ones that were blank don't turn to ash. And then that golden-- actually, no, you haven't turned that gold green. That did not turn to ash. But you guys would level to three. And upon leaving the house, you would also go unconscious Fall to the ground after that ordeal. And we're going to call it there. Good job, guys. Good job. There was a real threat of y'all dying if you even tried to go from the attic all the way down and having to pass through all those doors and all those rooms. So we'll just deal with all the level-ups stuff next time. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Hopefully you guys like this. It's been fun. So confirming the deed to the house due to the windmill. Moss agate. So the stuff is. So the stuff that you looted from the dungeon sting, but anything that you had looted from like the house itself, like any jewelry you had taken from any of the bedrooms and stuff like that. Okay, so we still have the ivory hairbrush. Yes. Okay, yeah. I have no idea. I haven't been keeping track of that as well. We'll be able to sort that out as well. Good job, guys. Didn't let yourself get shambled or shadowed or gassed in or... Yeah, fuck those shambling mounds, bro. It was pretty close. It was some good teamwork for sure. Good teamwork, some good lucky crits and stuff like that too. What level were we when we had those three shambling mounds after us? Were we level three or... It was somewhere between three to five. I have no idea. It was devastating. Why a little up? Multiple shambling mounds at that level? Jeez, man. - Not enough, yeah. - That'll, not enough. - Shambling mouth.

  • That doesn't look awesome to you?

fun to deal with pretty cool from like design perspective objectively not involved with it directly yeah i get that i get that found out as a fire breathing dragonborn that fire didn't do much against yeah yeah at least you're right about that welcome back mother They weren't lying about the monster in the basement. They were not. That's what I was saying. Everyone was like, well, yep, checks out. They were actually right. We were so angry at them. We were like, where's lying gets? Lying to us? Like, these kids are bullshit. I got very close to killing you. You tried real hard. I did. I did. You didn't die. You didn't die. You were friends. Jesus Christ, my house is cold. Your food was excellent. It was delicious. Thank you so much. Yes, yes. We needed a plane until 8. The movie was crazy. Well, not crazy because it had like a plot. I guess it wasn't, I didn't realize horror movies had so much of a plot. Like, there's a lot of plot with this movie. Some do say, no. They promote Evil Dead, which is not the kind of movie this was, thank goodness, because that's what it would have been. But they had people in, like, bunny costumes, and all of a sudden you go, bang! Just, you know, the one shot. But that didn't make me...
