  Hello there future house whippers and arcane agents, Fanny May here.
• 0:08
  You've probably heard of me so it won't bother with too much introduction aside from being
• 0:12
  this year's the state enchanter of the year and the hold of the top arcane acreage agent
• 0:16
  three years in a row.
• 0:18
  But online I'm the top real-time dungeon dealer's realty, or as we like to call it, DDR.
• 0:23
  What DDR you might be wondering?
• 0:25
  You see that crumbling dusty manner with the suspiciously glowing cellar?
• 0:28
  The one with the trees whisper secrets and the gargoyles seem to move on their own?
• 0:32
  That's our bread and butter.
• 0:34
  At DDR, we don't just sell properties, we sell experiences.
• 0:38
  From dangerous dungeons overflowing with goblins to haunted castles with spectral dance parties,
• 0:42
  we specialize in properties with a little extra character.
• 0:47
  We're not your average real estate firm.
• 0:49
  We're problem solvers, negotiators, and frankly, we're the best in the business.
• 0:53
  So if you got an act for navigating cursed kitchens, charming grumpy ghosts, or simply
• 0:56
  seeing the potential in a property that's actively trying to eat its occupants, then
• 1:00
  listen up, because a career at dungeon dealer's realty isn't just a job.
• 1:05
  It's an adventure.
• 1:06
  And trust me, the commission on a truly dangerous dungeon?
• 1:10
  It's to die for.
• 1:12
  So get logged into the ethernet and check out our site to submit your application.
• 1:17
  We're looking for the best, savviest, and most importantly, bravest salesfolk out there
• 1:21
  willing to take on the challenges we at DDR overcome every day.
• 1:26
  What are you waiting for?
• 1:27
  Sign that scroll and send it our way.
• 1:32
  So welcome everybody to a very special one shot for session zero heroes called, well,
• 1:37
  it's business wizards is the system, the TTRPG business wizards.
• 1:41
  It is created by ninth level games.
• 1:43
  It uses their polymorph system and it is created by mess nerd and Watson.
• 1:47
  Hopefully I said those right.
• 1:49
  But it is a fun little kind of zine style TTRPG.
• 1:53
  It's not super rules heavy or anything like that.
• 1:57
  It's pretty rules light and it's pretty focused on telling kind of a goofy, hilarious story
• 2:02
  where magic meets corporate craziness, you could say.
• 2:07
  So hopefully it's a lot of fun.
• 2:09
  Hopefully those of you that are listening get a big kick out of it and hopefully you
• 2:13
  guys all playing all have a laugh as well.
• 2:16
  So jumping into things, let's all introduce ourselves.
• 2:20
  Obviously, my name is Skyler.
• 2:21
  You guys who are listening probably know all about it.
• 2:23
  Help me.
• 2:24
  I chatted with Haven the other day for a session zero university episode, which was really
• 2:28
  awesome.
• 2:29
  So my introduction, I'm usually the semi forever DM over at the session zero heroes.
• 2:38
  And yeah, I mean, that's that's basically the just what you need to know about me.
• 2:40
  I think everybody's more interested in each of you.
• 2:43
  So let's go through.
• 2:45
  I'll start from the top of my list of just everybody that I have listed here.
• 2:50
  Claire, do you want to introduce yourself?
• 2:54
  Me and there.
• 2:55
  Hello.
• 2:56
  I'm playing Millie.
• 2:57
  Mildew hard bottle from source for sanitation takes the jobs very seriously.
• 3:02
  She's got a border grey skin.
• 3:03
  She's quite tall at seven foot, seven foot two really muscular, rich blonde hair with
• 3:09
  dark roots because it's such a pain to get it done all the time.
• 3:12
  And she's got lopsided plat because he's got the time to make it look perfect.
• 3:17
  She eyebrows, red denim dungarees with a big black tool belt and then always has a nice
• 3:23
  fully flirty flowers underneath.
• 3:25
  Love it.
• 3:26
  I love it.
• 3:27
  And her specialty is kind of the sanitation department.
• 3:30
  You have some key power words with your character and those are going to be kind of what your
• 3:35
  spell is.
• 3:37
  All the spells that you cast are going to be centered around.
• 3:39
  So do you want to share with us what those what those power words are?
• 3:43
  We have to have got gas, gravitas, sounds really nice and hot air.
• 3:49
  Awesome.
• 3:50
  Fantastic.
• 3:51
  It'll be interesting to see what kind of spells you craft with those keywords.
• 3:55
  And then on the side, we also each player has a sort of special item or weapon or you
• 4:02
  have maybe like a pet or a sort of like a second in command, somebody that helps you
• 4:07
  out with things.
• 4:09
  This is your edge and this edge is going to be used throughout the game.
• 4:12
  Where you roll your sort of the maximum number on your dice or what most people would think
• 4:17
  of is like the critical.
• 4:19
  You will get to succeed at whatever it is that you're doing and to top it off.
• 4:23
  Usually that edge is involved in how it is that you succeed.
• 4:27
  So Claire, what edge does Mildew Harbottle have?
• 4:30
  It'll be interesting.
• 4:32
  She's got a sponge of saturation, which can absorb, can hold in oceans worth of liquid
• 4:37
  from one area or spill for up to two hours.
• 4:40
  That is absolutely incredible.
• 4:42
  And I definitely think that's going to be a very vital piece of the adventure that we're
• 4:47
  going to go on today.
• 4:48
  Fantastic.
• 4:49
  Well, awesome.
• 4:50
  That is, I'm excited.
• 4:51
  I'll try to refer to everybody as their character names going forward to the best of my abilities.
• 4:55
  So Mildew Harbottle, we're excited to have you join.
• 4:59
  We'll move over to Andrew.
• 5:03
  Feel free to introduce yourself and your character.
• 5:06
  Hi.
• 5:07
  I'm Andrew.
• 5:08
  I'm also a DM over at the sketchy rolls podcast.
• 5:16
  And I shall be playing a character called...
• 5:19
  These words popping soon.
• 5:21
  I'm a little goblin wizard.
• 5:27
  I have large, thick rimmed spectacles that I wear above my gorgeous nose.
• 5:36
  I work within magical marketing.
• 5:41
  I'm an innovator.
• 5:42
  I like to think up things to advertise for our specific company, which is DD Realty.
• 5:53
  I also have these words of power, which I shall be trying to use within my spells.
• 6:01
  Auras is the first word.
• 6:04
  Future site, my second and my third stock markets.
• 6:12
  Absolutely incredible.
• 6:13
  And of course, Fizzword holds a special place in my heart because I actually, uh, outside
• 6:17
  of podcasting, I'm also a marketer.
• 6:19
  So I'm excited to see how that kind of plays out.
• 6:22
  So very exciting.
• 6:24
  Um, awesome.
• 6:25
  And then what is your sort of edge?
• 6:27
  What is the special thing that Fizzword has on hand that, uh, is going to give him that
• 6:33
  sort of up in battle or whatever it is, other challenge that kind of comes his way.
• 6:39
  Well, I'm, I'm always carrying around my, uh, uh, my little tablet, my magical tablet
• 6:46
  that's always at hand.
• 6:48
  And I have access to whizipedia.
• 6:52
  So I can look up certain things to see, uh, information that might help me.
• 6:57
  But, uh, only problem with, uh, whizipedia is it's not always.
• 7:03
  Uh, accurate.
• 7:05
  Uh, cool.
• 7:08
  You never can tell, right?
• 7:09
  I might have too much access out there to that whizipedia.
• 7:13
  Absolutely.
• 7:14
  What, what rotten lot.
• 7:17
  Uh, I thought, I thought I'd just mention my name is Fizzword Poppington, but, uh, you
• 7:23
  could call me Fizz.
• 7:24
  You know, Fizz to my friends is awesome.
• 7:28
  Awesome.
• 7:29
  All right.
• 7:30
  So, I'm Fizzword from the marketing department that's going to be joining you guys on your
• 7:33
  quest today.
• 7:34
  Uh, you'll need him to, uh, help you with advertising and potentially leading to sales.
• 7:41
  And that's very important for a company, obviously.
• 7:43
  You got to be able to make those sales.
• 7:46
  So next up, I have Haven, uh, if you want to introduce yourself and your, yes, my name
• 7:53
  is Haven Joseph Lyon.
• 7:54
  I am a, uh, co-owner of the campaign casters podcast as well as one of the co-DMS over
• 7:59
  there.
• 8:00
  Uh, I will be playing, uh, Hollister.
• 8:03
  Most people call me Holly though.
• 8:05
  Uh, I'm the cutthroat of the group, whether I, I may seem like it or not.
• 8:10
  Um, I'm a satyr.
• 8:11
  I, I'm about six foot tall with tall horns and I have this nice flow and white row with
• 8:17
  the cyan accents.
• 8:19
  Um, and I'm part of the purification and exorcism department also deal with a lot of termination
• 8:25
  of clients and, uh, employees.
• 8:28
  My, um, my secret edge that I like to bring with me everywhere.
• 8:32
  It's my heirloom that was passed down through the ages as I've been a part of this company
• 8:36
  and my family's been a part of this company years and years to come.
• 8:40
  Um, and I use my, my terminated stamp, which is this little stamp that I press and then
• 8:45
  it turns into a big weapon whenever I need to deal with.
• 8:51
  I love it.
• 8:54
  Yeah. And, uh, what are Holly's, uh, power words?
• 8:58
  My words of power are departments as of course I oversee a lot of the departments and making
• 9:03
  sure I'm firing people and stuff like that.
• 9:06
  Um, and then dreams because I'm always in your dreams even if you don't want me to be
• 9:11
  there and, uh, awareness because I need to know where my foes are at all times.
• 9:17
  Absolutely.
• 9:18
  Absolutely.
• 9:19
  Got to keep an eye on those foes.
• 9:21
  Keep them close.
• 9:22
  Fantastic.
• 9:24
  And awesome.
• 9:25
  So, uh, Holly, obviously going to be kind of the intense cutthroat of the group.
• 9:29
  Uh, and that actually brings me to something, Jack, I know I'm going to get to you in just
• 9:32
  a second.
• 9:33
  I did forget to mention, uh, everybody kind of has a, uh, sort of style of employee that
• 9:38
  they are at the DDR or dungeon dealers, realty.
• 9:43
  Um, Haven or sorry, uh, Hollister is the, the cutthroat, which is the person that's
• 9:48
  going to get things done no matter what.
• 9:51
  It doesn't matter what it's going to take.
• 9:52
  Uh, it could mean firing somebody, as you mentioned before.
• 9:55
  Um, but whatever the case, the job is going to get done.
• 9:58
  Thanks to the cutthroat with that being said, Claire is our sorry, Mildew.
• 10:03
  I see, I got to work on the character names.
• 10:05
  It's just good practice beforehand.
• 10:07
  Uh, Mildew is playing the Dynamo, which is a person that is absolutely ecstatic to be
• 10:13
  here.
• 10:14
  Um, Mildew is going to get things done.
• 10:15
  Mildew is going to be excited to get things done.
• 10:18
  Um, and hopefully, hopefully that positivity is maintained through the course of everything,
• 10:23
  although sometimes the job can get quite stressful.
• 10:26
  So we'll see how that goes.
• 10:28
  And then last, uh, next we have, uh, Fizzword is going to be playing the innovator.
• 10:33
  The innovator is the ideas person, the person that's always coming up with new and innovative
• 10:38
  ways to get things done.
• 10:40
  And finally we'll jump over to Jack.
• 10:43
  Jack, give us a rundown on your character and as well as yourself.
• 10:47
  Okay.
• 10:48
  Hi everyone.
• 10:49
  My name is Jack as you fit, I kindly introduced already and I'm usually when I'm not, um,
• 10:55
  messing around, uh, with, uh, on the sketchy roles being a player, I am also, uh, tend to
• 11:02
  end up a GMing more than, uh, than playing.
• 11:05
  Uh, and you can see most of the details of that because I'm normally it's in person
• 11:08
  games.
• 11:09
  Um, there's a couple of venues around London that I, uh, do some GMing at.
• 11:12
  Um, and you can find all the details on my, uh, social media because you know, shameless
• 11:16
  plug already, uh, at, uh, Slice and D six.
• 11:20
  Um, and, uh, yes today, uh, I'm, uh, be playing, uh, Merle, uh, Merle, uh, dial it in Merle
• 11:28
  dial it in, um, from humanoid resources and, um, uh, I, uh, uh, uh, normally I just kind
• 11:36
  of offload things to the, the next guy or, you know, or, or, or when it's needed.
• 11:42
  If I need an edge, then I will, uh, stick things in my, uh, void filing cabinet and
• 11:47
  they'll never be seen again.
• 11:50
  So all those complaints that you have, just get them to me and I will file them away somewhere.
• 11:55
  Uh, yeah.
• 11:56
  That's kind of my, kind of my jam.
• 11:58
  Yeah.
• 11:59
  I love that.
• 12:00
  I love that.
• 12:01
  They just disappear.
• 12:02
  That's right.
• 12:03
  That's what we need.
• 12:04
  Yeah.
• 12:05
  Yeah.
• 12:06
  Absolutely.
• 12:07
  So, uh, Merle, what are your words of power?
• 12:09
  Uh, so they are, uh, mammals, fey creatures and swag.
• 12:15
  Um, just cause normally, uh, you know, a lot of the time I can get the, the, uh, fey and
• 12:23
  other animals to do things.
• 12:26
  And sometimes, you know, you gotta break things down to basics and, you know, we're all mammals
• 12:30
  at the end of the day.
• 12:31
  Uh, you know, so it's, it's just, just taking things down to a simplistic level and then,
• 12:36
  you know, delegating to other things, which is kind of my, my strength really.
• 12:40
  Uh, so I'm in the, uh, so, so I guess I'll have character.
• 12:43
  I've got the, the manager, um, uh, role, which is absolutely necessary.
• 12:48
  And I think it fits so well with the humanoid resources department as well as, as you mentioned
• 12:53
  before, you're, you're delegating to other people, getting them to do all the work while
• 12:58
  you sit in kind of the, the higher corporate chair of managerial, uh, status.
• 13:03
  I should say that Merle is, um, unlike, uh, from the sounds of it, some quite, um, vivid,
• 13:10
  uh, characters we have here.
• 13:11
  Merle is a typical office worker.
• 13:13
  He's kind of middle age, like got a shirt and a tie.
• 13:16
  It's a bit faded, bit of, bit of stubble growing around his chin.
• 13:21
  Um, yeah.
• 13:22
  Hair is kind of, you know, it's starting to recede a bit, um, sort of like 40s to 50s
• 13:28
  kind of age.
• 13:29
  He's just, he's, he's just kind of, you know, once a, a, a, an easy life just coasting through
• 13:34
  until retirement.
• 13:36
  Absolutely.
• 13:37
  Absolutely.
• 13:38
  And hey, you know, that's the beauty of being in the managerial spot is ideally that's,
• 13:43
  that's the perfect setting.
• 13:44
  Get to just kind of sit by and watch everybody else do the work while you get to sit back
• 13:48
  and, and hang out.
• 13:49
  Um, I just look back to that later.
• 13:52
  Yeah.
• 13:53
  Absolutely.
• 13:54
  Yes.
• 13:55
  I'm excited to see that.
• 13:56
  Um, fantastic.
• 13:57
  I just kind of managed the team hopefully a little bit.
• 13:59
  So otherwise I think we're good to go to jump into our, uh, adventure today.
• 14:15
  It's a typical day at DDR, Dungeon Dealers Realty.
• 14:19
  People are running about answering arcane calls on their various magical devices.
• 14:25
  Some people are cleaning up the office while other people are rushing around filing paperwork,
• 14:30
  printing things out or faxing things away.
• 14:32
  Whatever the case, you suddenly receive an urgent email from the boss and owner of DDR,
• 14:40
  Voldemortgage.
• 14:41
  He's a pretty intense guy, although he's pretty nice.
• 14:44
  You most of the time when he gets stressed out or needs something immediately, he can
• 14:47
  be pretty intense.
• 14:49
  And so seeing this urgent email on your computer screen ensures that you better get to it.
• 14:55
  You head off over to the meeting room that he has called you all into.
• 14:59
  And as you step inside, you see the other members of this group.
• 15:04
  You see Mildew from the sanitation department.
• 15:08
  You see Fisward from the marketing department.
• 15:11
  You see Hollister or Holly from the purification and exorcism department.
• 15:18
  And of course, you see Merle from the humanoid resources.
• 15:22
  Take your seat amongst these individuals.
• 15:26
  And after only a short moment, Voldemortgage, the exhausted boss man, enters the room in
• 15:31
  his usual dark cloak, which looks a bit disheveled today.
• 15:36
  The collar is sufficiently loosened from one too many nervous pulls.
• 15:41
  Dark circles shadow his eyes, an obvious result of lack of sleep, countered by too many cups
• 15:46
  of coffee this morning.
• 15:48
  Speaking of eyes, one of them is twitching uncontrollably.
• 15:52
  You've never seen him quite this tossled and exacerbated.
• 15:56
  So something is definitely wrong.
• 15:58
  Once Dark Lord of the Shadow Realm, now the Dark Lord of Quarterly Reports, slaps down
• 16:03
  a mound of papers and files as he takes a tired seat at the front of the conference table.
• 16:08
  I want to thank you all for taking time to meet with me today.
• 16:13
  I'm sure you all have properties to sell, marketing materials to post on Hexagram, scrollbook,
• 16:19
  link, gin, or whatever the kids are posting ridiculous dance videos on today.
• 16:24
  I called you all here today in hopes that you might be able to help me with a little challenge
• 16:29
  we're trying to overcome here at DDR.
• 16:32
  And as we all know, a challenge is just an opportunity that casts disguise self.
• 16:39
  You're suddenly distracted by the sound of a soft but high-pitched constant scream as
• 16:44
  you look to Voldemortgage's hand and it's squeezing a stress ball with a small mouth
• 16:48
  that seems to be where this scream is coming from.
• 16:51
  He looks at it and he tosses it away.
• 16:53
  "This property has me so unedged, I've over squeezed my stress ball.
• 16:59
  My apologies.
• 17:00
  You see, about two weeks ago we signed to sell a property that's been foreclosed upon.
• 17:06
  Something about the original owner having been severely behind on their property taxes.
• 17:11
  Anyways, the bank has since seized it and has been desperately trying to sell it.
• 17:17
  But the other realtor firms they've contracted with have all but given up on the property.
• 17:22
  It seems that the realtors they sent in to show the property never return to work.
• 17:30
  Unfortunately, I sent Fanny May, who you all know is one of the best real estate agents
• 17:38
  here at DDR, to get the place ready to show and, well, she too has seemingly disappeared.
• 17:45
  Now the bank is getting impatient and is planning to do an open house party tonight to show it
• 17:51
  to prospective clients.
• 17:56
  I'm down to my last option and that is to send the four of you with your variable talents
• 18:03
  and capabilities to get over there and get this place ready for the party tonight.
• 18:08
  We need it clean, decorated and without any kind of magical or non-magical squatters.
• 18:14
  Now, I know you all come from different non-sales related departments, but you're my last hope.
• 18:21
  So to kick things off, I want to work with each of you to go over a quick SWAT analysis
• 18:27
  of what this team has to offer before you head in.
• 18:30
  And with that, he pulls down a presentation.
• 18:34
  It's like an arcane screen almost and already drawn on it is a sort of chart for a SWAT
• 18:39
  analysis for those that are not familiar with that.
• 18:41
  That is sort of an analysis a lot of businesses do to identify a group's strengths, weaknesses,
• 18:49
  opportunities and threats.
• 18:50
  The opportunities and threats have already been filled out for you, including on the
• 18:55
  opportunity side is sort of what it is that you guys are going to be trying to do with
• 18:59
  this property once you go there.
• 19:02
  Sell the castle is kind of the header here and listed underneath it is clean it, redecorate
• 19:07
  it, remove squatters, cleanse of negative harmful magics and traps.
• 19:15
  Whereas on the threat side, we have obviously magical traps and curses, monstrosities, question
• 19:21
  mark spirits and entities, question mark outdated decor, definitely, dust decay and mold, probably
• 19:31
  squatters, probably, and whatever is causing people to disappear.
• 19:37
  That's definitely something worth looking into.
• 19:39
  If that being said, I want to ask you guys or rather Voldemortage asked each of you, what
• 19:43
  sort of strengths would you each say that your group has in reference to getting this
• 19:51
  property ready?
• 19:52
  Anyone have anything in particular you could think of?
• 19:55
  Well before there's even any one that answers as soon as the screen you pull down, Holly
• 20:01
  starts clapping a little golf clap and you look over and they're just grinning from ear
• 20:06
  to ear.
• 20:07
  Yes, Holly.
• 20:08
  Oh no, I was just, I was just appreciating the presentation.
• 20:12
  Oh, oh, well thank you, I spent all morning doing this.
• 20:17
  It's proper aerial font right there, I appreciate it.
• 20:22
  Yes, I considered Comic Sans but I decided against it.
• 20:26
  No Comic Sans, no never.
• 20:29
  Oh yes, thanks.
• 20:31
  No, no, please, you obviously have a lot of experience with marketing and ensuring that
• 20:36
  we sell this property is very key.
• 20:39
  Perhaps you might have any strengths to offer.
• 20:43
  Well I definitely have a keen eye for making things look right, look great from the back
• 20:53
  end of a camera but absolutely I could probably help with making sure that furniture is the
• 21:01
  decor that we're bringing into this property is infitting with a potential bias for this
• 21:09
  property.
• 21:10
  Oh yes, you know what they're looking for, I like that, that's very good, very good
• 21:15
  Fisword, yes, making things look nice, I will put that down.
• 21:21
  Does anybody else want to volunteer any strengths?
• 21:24
  Me, me, me, I really, oh sorry, I didn't mean to speak over you, you go ahead if you
• 21:30
  need to go.
• 21:31
  No, no it's fine.
• 21:32
  Oh, oh, alright, okay, well my specialty would be dealing with him entities and spirits
• 21:40
  and maybe even the squatters if you let me.
• 21:43
  Oh yes, of course, removing the evil spirits that is actually your specialty so that it
• 21:49
  is very good, yes, I will mark that down.
• 21:53
  Oh, you deal with all the entities and stuff and I'll do with all the filth, all the dirt,
• 21:58
  all the muck, anything that's broken, I'll make it gone.
• 22:03
  Oh, fantastic, this is exactly why I chose you, Nildoo, for this particular job, your
• 22:09
  skills with incenitation will be absolutely crucial to preparing this house as well, so
• 22:15
  yes, I will put sanitation down, cleaning and so forth, we'll fantastically have some
• 22:20
  good strengths on this group, I appreciate that.
• 22:24
  Yeah, yeah, I think we've outlined all of the core competencies of this group and I
• 22:31
  don't really want to bring Dumb on everyone here, so I'll just park that for now.
• 22:37
  Yes, of course, yes, I think we've got a solid one in here, fantastic, any weaknesses we
• 22:44
  should be concerned about, anything you personally don't care for, anything that might hinder
• 22:51
  your capabilities.
• 22:53
  Someone telling me no.
• 22:55
  Oh, alright, don't tell Nildoo no.
• 23:00
  And call me Millie, it's, Nildoo's just a bit dated, you know, Millie is kind of up
• 23:05
  to date, a bit out there, a bit, yeah.
• 23:07
  Oh, so, Millie can do this.
• 23:10
  Absolutely, Millie, I will, I will sincerely apologise.
• 23:13
  It's alright.
• 23:14
  Well, I was just going to say, I can't deal with things that smell rotten or gross, it
• 23:25
  makes me want to puke.
• 23:27
  So, I'd like, if possible, Boss, to be kept away from anything that's stinky.
• 23:35
  Understood, understood, alright, fairs word is not to go near stinky things.
• 23:41
  Yeah, it messes with my creative process, I can't, I can't fix it, right, you know.
• 23:46
  Well, we certainly can't have that, alright, I'll put that down as weaknesses, fizz words
• 23:51
  should not go near stinky things.
• 23:54
  Hopefully this place does not stink as you enter it, but I'm sure, I'm sure that Millie
• 24:00
  will be able to handle much of that.
• 24:03
  Oh yeah, I can't bless you, Millie.
• 24:07
  Any other weaknesses anyone might be concerned about?
• 24:10
  No, no, I don't think there's any weaknesses at all, no matter what, if Karen from Accounts
• 24:16
  does anything that's like, it's an ongoing issue, it's not anything relevant to this
• 24:21
  particular case that we got, we can deep dive on that another time, but I think that we've
• 24:27
  got good synergy here between our group, I think if we get our ducks in a row we should
• 24:31
  have everything we need just to really grab that low hanging fruit, you know.
• 24:36
  Ah yes, ducks, yes, I like that analogy, I think this is a fantastic start.
• 24:44
  Well, if we all feel pretty confident in where we're going and our strengths and weaknesses
• 24:49
  and generally as a team working together to get this done, I think it's time to send
• 24:55
  you forth.
• 24:56
  Are all of you ready?
• 24:58
  I would say so, yeah.
• 24:59
  Alright, let's do this.
• 25:01
  Yeah, let's move the needle.
• 25:03
  Let's go!
• 25:04
  I've already got the teleportation circles ready for you to get to the property as quickly
• 25:10
  as possible since it is tonight that we're having the party, so goodbye, bye!
• 25:16
  And as he shouts this spell, all of a sudden some teleportation circles open up below your
• 25:22
  chairs, they start to glow a bright blue light as you all feel yourselves pretty much just
• 25:28
  drop under the floor and as everything sort of goes into a bright light it will quickly
• 25:35
  fade leaving you all sitting in front of what might be one of the most creepy eerie decrepit
• 25:42
  castles you've ever seen straight out of any given horror movie where a group of teens
• 25:48
  goes into a spooky derelict castle and usually bad things happen.
• 25:55
  Hopefully that's not the case for you guys, but we will see as you guys look on your eyes
• 26:01
  readjust annoying side effects of the interdimensional travel that is teleportation and you stabilize
• 26:07
  your feet on the dirt road with your eyes follow leading to this great mansion or castle
• 26:13
  and quickly vanishes this road quickly vanishes behind you swallowed by a deep dark forest
• 26:19
  that seems to press in from all sides.
• 26:22
  There's an ornate metal gate which looms above you, rusted, iron twisted into surprisingly
• 26:30
  intricate designs that would look incredibly nice if someone had taken the time to clean
• 26:34
  them.
• 26:35
  As for the breeze in the air, it passes by you and squeals like a banshee as the gate
• 26:44
  sort of creak open ever so slightly just pushed by the breeze.
• 26:47
  You can tell that the hinges are obviously very weak and the doors barely hold on.
• 26:54
  Beyond you see a wide stagnant moat which encircles this castle and you look over the edge of
• 27:00
  this and find it to not be filled with water but with an alarming array of modern trash
• 27:06
  plastic soda bottles, old tires, deflated pool floats and even a discarded garden gnome
• 27:13
  all coated in a thin viscous stream of glowing green liquid that slowly oozes towards the
• 27:20
  edges.
• 27:21
  The drawbridge, visibly rotten and sagging, lies permanently lowered across the unsavory
• 27:26
  moat, thank goodness.
• 27:28
  It's heavy chains thick with rust and suggesting that it hadn't seen the up position in centuries.
• 27:34
  Finally perched precariously on one of the bridge's crumbling stone pilings, a familiar
• 27:39
  for sale sign from your very company Dungeon Dealer Realty's hangs there crookedly.
• 27:45
  What would you guys like to do?
• 27:48
  Well this just looks right like home, besides the trash and the vile goo and stuff but you
• 27:54
  know it's a nice little property I think.
• 27:56
  Yeah I think once we get things right I think it'll be an absolute stoner and Fizz is gonna
• 28:05
  walk over to that site.
• 28:07
  Just get this straight, it's annoying me already.
• 28:10
  And he just makes sure that the for sale sign is straight in the place that it is.
• 28:17
  Absolutely fixes it so it's not crooked anymore and nice and even and straight the way that
• 28:22
  it should be so fantastic.
• 28:25
  I think Holly starts heading toward that drawbridge to see what's kind of going on if we can get
• 28:31
  that thing down or whatever we have to do to lasso it or something.
• 28:36
  So the drawbridge is already down, it looks kind of like it probably hasn't been pulled
• 28:40
  back up or maybe couldn't even be pulled back up even if you tried.
• 28:45
  The chains that hold it look precariously rusty and the wood itself looks quite aged and even
• 28:53
  bowing I think a little bit towards the gravity pulling it down towards this moat that sort
• 28:59
  of circles this property.
• 29:02
  It is down, it is there, whether or not it's safe to cross I guess that'd be something
• 29:06
  worth trying to find out.
• 29:07
  Holly will walk up and put, not put all their weight on it but put a foot on the front of
• 29:12
  it.
• 29:13
  Alright you put one foot on the front of it, it creaks but it feels solid, it doesn't
• 29:19
  feel like it's gonna collapse.
• 29:21
  I think if anything it sort of squelches a little bit and you can tell that the wood
• 29:25
  is very just drenched in rain or even mud over the years.
• 29:31
  It's not pleasant and it's certainly not gonna impress some buyers but it does feel strong
• 29:37
  enough to hold if you guys were to cross.
• 29:39
  Well looks like the entrance is clear to come in, good talk you see as Holly Watts former.
• 29:48
  You see Fizz is holding their breath and they've got fingers like sort of pressed against
• 29:57
  their nostrils and just sort of running as quickly as he can, his little legs will take
• 30:04
  him behind Holly.
• 30:06
  Alright the both of you rush across the drawbridge hopefully not getting any, Fizz word getting
• 30:13
  any smells that he would otherwise maybe lose some constitution to.
• 30:20
  What about the other two?
• 30:21
  Alright Millie was polishing on the gate and just kind of just scraping away and finally
• 30:26
  got a little bit of the rust away, made it nice and shiny and she showed the others
• 30:29
  going in and she was like oh well okay I guess yeah we can clean from the inside and then
• 30:33
  go on the outside but you know first appearances.
• 30:37
  I like your instincts you know best practice just going with what you know you know you
• 30:41
  don't want to really think outside the box but you know these guys they're putting the
• 30:46
  best foot forward and you know we've got to support them just break down those silos you
• 30:49
  know work all of our different teams together and just one coordinated synergistic team I
• 30:53
  think yeah you're good I'll follow you.
• 30:56
  Yeah I can do the outside in the doddle.
• 30:59
  Awesome awesome and I will say given your you know specialty within the sanitation apartment
• 31:05
  Millie it definitely you have like the sprays or whatever chemicals on hand and so when
• 31:10
  you do a little bit of that cleaning sure enough there are portions that do start to
• 31:15
  shine like they used to and I think that's really important when when you guys do get
• 31:20
  around to the outside that you've got the tools of success there for that.
• 31:24
  Alright so you guys all approach the giant wooden double doors and is anyone in particular
• 31:31
  not to freak anybody out but is anyone in particular going to be the one to open them
• 31:36
  or attempt to open them.
• 31:39
  Just the doors?
• 31:40
  Yeah.
• 31:41
  Oh come on you haven't got all day.
• 31:43
  Yeah Holly opens them.
• 31:44
  Let's get it done.
• 31:45
  Awesome Holly you pull open the doors obviously they're unlocked this is this is what you
• 31:51
  guys do right like well I guess maybe not you guys usually the salesperson comes here
• 31:55
  but you guys have the key even if it was locked you guys would have the key to it.
• 32:00
  You pull the doors open they let out loud groan as you finally push them back allowing you
• 32:07
  visit from the inside.
• 32:09
  When you step through these grand front doors you find yourselves in a vast open foyer with
• 32:15
  a tiled white flooring that despite being caked in centuries of dust and grime hints
• 32:21
  at a potential for a dazzling brilliant dance floor underneath of it.
• 32:27
  Above you an ornate chandelier hangs silently its hundreds of glass reflectors shaped like
• 32:33
  little droplets obscured by a thick layer of dust yet still they catch bits of sunlight
• 32:39
  that stream in through the numerous grimy windows casting hazy ethereal beams across
• 32:45
  the space.
• 32:46
  In the very center of this expansive room a massive dust covered tarp stretches upward
• 32:52
  about 10 feet its peaks and valleys suggesting a large concealed object underneath.
• 32:58
  Oh this is bad for fizz word by the way stale unpleasant rotten sea smelling scent hangs
• 33:05
  heavily in the air seemingly emanating from whatever is underneath this tarp.
• 33:18
  Fizz if you if you if you if you if you wouldn't mind if you could just maybe take that outside
• 33:28
  and just take a breather and you know we'll circle back to that in like like five minutes
• 33:33
  but just just remember that you know we've got to we do have to address this here so
• 33:38
  we are going to have to come up with some kind of actionable way of of moving forward
• 33:43
  with it with this with your condition sir.
• 33:46
  Right you are boss I'll just step quietly behind yeah yeah I'll be over here.
• 33:59
  Just remember at the end of the day it's only a bit of bit of grime it's not going to kill
• 34:02
  you yet.
• 34:05
  Famous last words I will add flanking the far end of the foyer you see two sweeping stair
• 34:10
  cases that elegantly curl upwards disappearing onto a second floor that seems to be shrouded
• 34:15
  in shadows on the either side of the foyer the foyer or foyer or does it really matter
• 34:21
  it depends on either one's correct okay for your if you're in English foyer if you're
• 34:29
  in French right ah yes that's what my mistake is okay on either side of the foyer heavy
• 34:35
  wooden double doors stand close hinting at further mysteries deep inside the castle does
• 34:41
  anyone like to take any particular direction or interact with anything here in the foyer
• 34:48
  um I think I think Holly are we allowed to use our spells at any time absolutely yeah
• 34:54
  uh yeah um so I think I think Holly's gonna like take a deep with within as he looks at
• 35:00
  the entire place and and he just like kind of looks around he smiles he goes oh this
• 35:04
  place is a fixer upper for my heart um and he starts looking around and um he takes out
• 35:14
  his um stamp and and starts kind of like writing like etching into the silver side backside
• 35:21
  of it um and then presses down on it and says boo and whatever he says boo it like echo locates
• 35:27
  out into the uh room using the words of power awareness I'm trying to sense if there's any
• 35:34
  like haunted spirits within the big hall oh interesting okay fantastic so we could call
• 35:41
  this like uh ghost awareness or something like that you guys yeah feel free to slap
• 35:45
  another word onto as long as you use the power word you are free to make whatever spells
• 35:50
  that you want uh using those words so uh fantastic you slap this giant stamp down hitting the
• 35:57
  floor and it sort of creates like an expansive uh echo through the halls of this castle as
• 36:03
  it does casting and ghost ghostly awareness to see if there's any other real beings in
• 36:10
  this area immediately as you do this suddenly you actually see for just like a couple of
• 36:17
  seconds which is sort of your ability this entire room is filled with a whole bunch of
• 36:23
  ghosts all of which seem to be dancing together um are you would you imagine that you're
• 36:31
  given your specialties uh you're able to sort of see these for an extended period of time
• 36:36
  or is it just like a quick glimpse with the spell I would I would say I would probably
• 36:40
  plus so like to describe it like as I hit the back of the stamp you just see as like
• 36:44
  some blue magic comes out of the backside and it like scrolls up ha holly's uh face and
• 36:50
  his eyes turn blue completely with like cyan radiating off of him as he's looking around
• 36:56
  very cool okay awesome yes your eyes glow and you can see in this room there are ghosts
• 37:04
  that seem to be in every corner I mean there's probably two dozen ghosts in this room uh all
• 37:10
  of which are dancing to a tune that you can't hear uh but you do notice that all of them seem to be
• 37:18
  doing the same dance like this is some sort of choreographed thing and as you watch for an extended
• 37:22
  period of time you quickly come to realize they're all just doing the makarena oh my god it's worse
• 37:28
  than I thought see it looks around I know what I need to do in this room but if anyone else needs
• 37:37
  to do something before I get started you might as well go ahead I'm gonna have to pull some real
• 37:42
  tricks here as the whole one starts cracking knuckles sorry what is it you're gonna counteract
• 37:48
  it with the chachaslide uh yeah I was thinking more of the the the the the ghoul shuffle but but
• 37:56
  that they'll do too I'm really sensing a paradigm shift here holly I like where this is going I
• 38:04
  fully support you in your uh in your endeavor I'm sure this is deliverable you see you see as
• 38:09
  holly turns around with a crooked smile like almost creepily thank you that means a lot pause
• 38:16
  oh I'm not really anyone's okay it's one of those things where human resources or humanoid resources
• 38:24
  is always like that that other entity that's close enough to a boss or maybe just like the
• 38:30
  fact that they have your job in their hands allegedly you know um it always kind of feels
• 38:35
  like they're your boss or a second boss he certainly uses the language to obscure to
• 38:40
  it make it sound like he knows what he's talking about and generally push it toward somebody else
• 38:45
  yes absolutely awesome awesome well yeah is anybody else want to interact with this room
• 38:50
  in any way before holly gets started on his uh is dealings with these ghostly beings so can we
• 38:56
  all see the ghosts I think uh and I guess uh I will leave that up to holly's decision is this a
• 39:05
  spell that only works on holly or is it sort of open to everybody actually that that's a fan
• 39:09
  fascinating question I originally was thinking it was just going to me but if if we want it to go
• 39:13
  to everyone else I'm probably fine with that I just didn't know the capabilities in which I can cast
• 39:18
  spells or maybe you see most of it and we just get a glimpse yeah I I think I think what happens
• 39:24
  is kind of like as holly's eyes light up blue there's like a pulse like almost like an emp that
• 39:29
  goes out so you see like a blip of them and then like holly just starts going see that one right
• 39:34
  there that one's dancing with that one and he's kind of doing that jig over there and he starts
• 39:38
  pulling out of each one as he's going through I like it I like it I think that's fair so all
• 39:43
  the rest of you at least have seen a glimpse of these ghosts that sort of surround this entire
• 39:48
  room doing the macarena that's some really bleeding edge spell you got there holly it's uh
• 39:55
  yes I please please continue oh thank you it's it's passed down through my family and my family's
• 40:01
  family and their family too and that's cool we can we can circle back to that that's
• 40:06
  going all right so holly you you have all these ghosts within your vision is there any particular
• 40:15
  direction that you're going to take in in trying to deal with them I believe I believe that um
• 40:22
  holly's going to try and cast another spell um and do I need to be writing this like how many
• 40:27
  spells I'm using and stuff because I saw that you said something along those lines oh yeah yeah so
• 40:32
  in business wizards everybody has a number of spell sheets equal to the number of players so
• 40:37
  each of you have four spell sheets sheets total that you will be using to cast spells and those
• 40:42
  will go in your expense reports and you will be reimbursed uh I guess the mana or whatever magical
• 40:48
  energy it took to cast them gotcha cool right we get we get four spells each for this yes correct
• 40:56
  yep okay just be sure to file them when we get back to the office you know their accounts
• 41:02
  they're already on my back so
• 41:04
  all right good to know that there's only four that we can have total yeah that is true yeah I
• 41:13
  think I think what holly's gonna do is holly will um instead of using a spell pulls out there uh like
• 41:21
  still has the little stamp and starts to whisper down some words into it and you see as the stamp
• 41:26
  goes from this little small like normal stamp that has the words terminated on it at the bottom
• 41:31
  and it turns into this huge ass almost looking like hammer that says terminated on the top and
• 41:39
  he just lifts it on his shoulder and says well I need to take care of some things and just starts
• 41:45
  like jumping up in the air and starts trying to stamp out the the ghosts with the other side of
• 41:51
  the stamp as it starts radiating like red energy and you see holister almost becomes bigger and
• 41:57
  his eyes turn red and like his horns themselves grow larger he is in his zone he this is what
• 42:06
  holly does this is his specialty so awesome I am going to have you and this will be the first
• 42:12
  role that we do uh I'm gonna have you roll for liquidate so one of the beautiful things about
• 42:18
  business wizards is that each person depending on the the type of employee that they play
• 42:22
  is only going to roll one type of dice throughout the entire game so for instance millie who is
• 42:29
  the dynamo will have a d6 uh fizzword who is the innovator is going to have a d4 holly who is doing
• 42:37
  something in this moment is planting the cutthroat who will have a d8 and murl who's our our hr
• 42:44
  representative is a manager who roll a d10 so no matter what it is that we're doing uh that will
• 42:50
  be the dice that you will roll so in this case holly you're going to be rolling a liquidate so
• 42:55
  you're going to roll a d8 and you're going to be looking for a four five six or seven of course if
• 43:00
  you get an eight that's a critical success awesome uh and if you get a one there's a possibility of
• 43:06
  success uh but there is kind of a downside to it gotcha well I just rolled and I got a seven
• 43:12
  seven okay fantastic you take out this now giant stamp and you're just going around bonking these
• 43:19
  ghosts and this is a special item that is specifically geared towards getting and it's part of your
• 43:25
  department as well right getting rid of uh ghostly beings otherworldly beings exercising them purifying
• 43:32
  the area this is like right up your alley and you start popping these ghosts and each one that you
• 43:37
  smack with one of these or with your uh with your stapler disappears you just hear as holly's
• 43:43
  going around lock in with the dance of death he has he like starts running around and stamping a
• 43:49
  bunch of things like almost like an anime style you can see a bunch of clouds and stuff like that is
• 43:54
  they're running around nice and I mean hey it's plenty dusty in here so yeah you're kicking up
• 43:59
  us clouds as you go just like super speed popping these ghosts uh in the in the face or you know
• 44:05
  where else with your with your giant stamp I love it I love it honestly uh pretty quickly there are
• 44:12
  only a few ghosts left uh I think one of them actually stops doing the makarena and he sort of
• 44:17
  holds out his hands he's like oh wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait
• 44:20
  what's that mean what do you want what are you doing what are you doing to us I'm I'm taking
• 44:28
  care of you termination what does that mean you know what it means you see a very scary look on
• 44:35
  her face I don't know I'm often not being trapped here anymore but uh which way am I going uh well
• 44:44
  I think that I think that depending on how well of a or good of a person you were you're gonna go
• 44:51
  no matter like wherever you're meant to go you know oh yeah he's sort of like rubs he itches the back
• 44:58
  of his head he's like oh that probably doesn't bode well for me and as as he says that I just
• 45:04
  thrust forth the stamp or discretion whoo he's seeing as he rubs his rubs his forehead after
• 45:12
  word all in days one yep absolutely yeah I think just as you're finishing off the last of these
• 45:20
  ghosts all of a sudden you hear the sound of sort of almost echoing throughout this this foyer
• 45:26
  the sound of the song the macarena sort of this this continual dance tune that's almost ghostly
• 45:32
  music is anyone else hearing that yes everybody in that time it's yeah that's not a mistake and that's
• 45:38
  lost del Rio a one-hit-wonder from the 90s oh it's got it's got a snappy beat I like it I like it
• 45:47
  yeah it's got that fun dance to it as well isn't it yeah yeah we're kind of boiling the ocean here
• 45:51
  guys can we maybe put that on the back burner for now uh uh maybe uh we need to guess we've got
• 45:57
  plenty of things to focus on here uh so I'm thinking maybe um uh and he kind of looks over to um
• 46:05
  looks over to Holly and it's like uh so how are you doing after all that Holly you uh everything
• 46:11
  okay you uh I mean I mean I took care of them I came I saw I conquered yeah you really dived
• 46:19
  in deep there uh yeah some some real uh some some real good stuff um right uh this music's now got
• 46:29
  louder since you started doing that so I'm just to put an idea in your think what I can see if it
• 46:36
  sizzles um maybe maybe maybe Julie first bro maybe uh in our in order to uh move the needle uh here
• 46:50
  maybe we need to uh approach this in a slightly uh action this in a slightly different way oh oh so
• 46:57
  so no no terminating oh no I'm not I'm not saying no I'm just saying maybe we could park the terminating
• 47:03
  for now and then we'll be all right all right yeah yeah because yeah I think terminating has done
• 47:08
  it's has has certainly done it's it's it's thing I'm just you know blue sky thinking maybe there's
• 47:14
  uh some other uh uh best practice that we could use that maybe we can bring other departments into
• 47:19
  this and he's kind of looking hopefully towards uh biz and Millie uh Fizz gives the thumbs up and and Fizz
• 47:28
  as all of this uh was sort of um happening with these uh spectral figures getting stamped out which
• 47:36
  Fizz couldn't quite see right um he's he's um got out his um magical tablet and he's been
• 47:45
  recording the footage this is going to look great when we put it out on socials you know
• 47:50
  getting stuff done you look amazing Holly give us a thumbs up you see you see like it was like
• 47:57
  during halfway through as there's like blood like ghost guts across Holly's face just like
• 48:03
  smiling with a yeah thank you with thumbs up and then just gets back to it during a bad footage
• 48:09
  could be great for like future clients who are dealing with heavily haunted houses that they're
• 48:14
  trying to sell and you can use that to be like oh let me show you how capable our team is I will
• 48:20
  work here I think that's great yeah yeah we're at this that's great uh Fizz that's like we're turning
• 48:25
  uh a negative into a positive and that's really I think really shifting the paradigm here yeah
• 48:31
  thanks yeah yeah no no uh is it making any difference to the noise however I guess is
• 48:37
  what he's wondering is yeah yeah yeah still working out um I uh it's so it's at a pretty like if there
• 48:44
  was a whole party worth of people here it's about that loud so that everybody could hear it within
• 48:48
  this foyer um with that being said I think after a couple of minutes it actually suddenly kind of
• 48:53
  just fades out oh great maybe maybe it was like mood music to help you with your flow Holly uh you
• 49:04
  know the macalese while you were smashing whatever it was that you were doing could I'll see yeah
• 49:13
  could be could be like uh uh it could also be maybe like one of those uh censored things when you
• 49:20
  enter the property maybe through uh there's a sort of door activation some sort of rudimentary
• 49:25
  technology or spell so uh Millie would you mind um uh just opening the door again just for a moment
• 49:31
  she looks up from her room and gives you yeah sure let's go to the door open it all right uh as you
• 49:38
  open the door once again you hear that sort of like deep uh even almost like wood cracking sound as the
• 49:44
  door opens ever so slightly and then do you do you just kind of like let it close after you open it
• 49:50
  fully hold it open you hold it open okay um you hold it open and aside from the sound of the breeze
• 49:55
  kind of entering through the doorway you don't hear the music again well that's okay yeah so sometimes
• 50:01
  you gotta shake the tree to see what falls out you know that's fair that's fair Millie shakes the door
• 50:06
  one of that one of the hinges of the door just kind of pops off just kind of is like hanging there by
• 50:12
  by a single hinge now okay uh that's on me uh let's maybe let's let's park the park that for now uh if
• 50:20
  you want to just put that back in the parking bay and uh no no the no just just leave it just put it
• 50:27
  back just just leave the door you want me to leave the door open or close it I don't mind just let go
• 50:33
  of the door please all right let's see I'm not gonna give you pushback on your idea because
• 50:38
  on what you did there because you know you you actioned it precisely as just not really working
• 50:42
  so you know back to the drawing board I guess uh I think as you let go of the door it's slowly
• 50:47
  kind of creaks on the hinge and it's like partially closed but obviously it can't fully close because
• 50:52
  it's bumping into the other door uh at the angle it is but otherwise I mean hey you know you guys
• 50:57
  have gotten rid of the the ghosts in here at the very least uh there's still that giant tarp that is
• 51:03
  sitting on something that's in the they're covering something that's in the middle of this room and
• 51:07
  then of course you have the stairs that go up to the second floor and then a a double a pair of
• 51:12
  double doors on either your right or left right if it's all the same to you I'm gonna keep away
• 51:18
  from whatever's underneath that disgusting tarp I can go with even from over here I'm gonna go up
• 51:27
  these stairs and see what I say oh come on it's only a dust sheet Emily was was it off
• 51:34
  she pulls it off um all right fantastic so uh with a big tug this heavy tarp billows and falls down
• 51:42
  revealing a truly ostentatious statue with seems to be like a fountain it's sort of like the the
• 51:49
  central statue to this fountain where water would come out of this uh this figure that is uh part of
• 51:55
  the statue carved from dark polished stone and it's surprisingly clean at least the statue is
• 52:01
  this figure depicted is undeniably striking a man with slicked back hair and a beaming fanged
• 52:08
  smile his cloak depicted as if dramatically waving in an unseen wind the fountain's basin at its feet
• 52:16
  is empty save for a thick layer of unpleasant and rotten smelling green algae that coats the stone
• 52:23
  unmistakably the source of that foul odor that was permeating the foyer that fizz word was so
• 52:29
  bothered by uh there's a metal plate on the front of it sort of a plaque that would suggest that the
• 52:34
  figure depicted in this stone has maybe a title uh that is that is shown on this uh but oddly enough
• 52:42
  there's actually a piece of paper that's kind of stuck over the top of it that reads claudra
• 52:47
  and that's spelled c l a u d r a for those that are interested really uh bringing it to the table
• 52:54
  there really thank you yeah no i've got this um she wrinkles her nose then pulls out her sponge
• 52:59
  of saturation and max it in the that foul smelling liquid to suck it all up absolutely it just drains
• 53:07
  up all this goo uh that's at the bottom of this i'm leaving it to be just kind of a uh just stone
• 53:13
  it's just stone now um no no gross odor coming off of it and actually you uh thanks to the door
• 53:19
  being slightly a jar i think there's a and the breeze coming through thanks to that i think it
• 53:23
  airs out pretty quickly over the next couple of minutes to uh remove a lot of that stink
• 53:28
  that was really bothering uh fizz word so fizz fizz uh points at um at milley and um he sort of
• 53:39
  does the the heart emoji with his two little goblin hands and he mouths the words he doesn't say it
• 53:47
  out loud he just says uh um love you but like his lips like melting out nice saved his nose and his
• 53:56
  constitution for sure uh well i will need to ring this out somewhere though so keep an eye open for
• 54:02
  me uh well i mean i this is a you know fountain you've got here so i mean you know not really
• 54:09
  thinking outside the box but you know it's certainly actionable just to get from the fountain
• 54:16
  it's clogging up the bottom well i mean that look it's your department i i don't want to
• 54:20
  you know try don't need toes here uh so uh you know there was a moat outside yeah yeah that's
• 54:27
  right i can dump this in there then i can empty the moat be backward genetic perfect i should go
• 54:32
  and do that awesome yeah absolutely it's a great place to put at least for the time being so awesome
• 54:37
  uh while while milley is squeezing the the sponge out into the moat and getting all that that dirty
• 54:44
  gross algae water um out of the interior uh is anybody else doing anything i know fizzword said
• 54:50
  he was headed upstairs right yeah awesome with that two two staircases a left and a right one
• 54:56
  yeah yeah they both they both go up to the same spot um it's sort of like those like curving uh
• 55:02
  staircases that just lead up to the second floor which you find is sort of just like a single hallway
• 55:08
  that seems to lead down just one dark corridor and are all the ghost taking care of in this room
• 55:14
  absolutely you made sure that perfect mill will look to holly just to see what holly's gonna do uh
• 55:22
  haul is so just just so i understand so there's there's the two hall there's two staircases
• 55:27
  there's only one hallway up there yes yep they both lead up to that second floor and then it's
• 55:31
  just one hallway up on the top up on i think i think holly would join fizz if he's going up there
• 55:37
  okay sounds good what about uh what about murl uh well yeah murl seeing the others are going together
• 55:44
  starts that way and then also thinks uh yeah also got milly behind so he'll go he'll go up the stairs
• 55:53
  but he'll sort of trail a little bit behind uh just to make sure that i can keep all of the
• 55:59
  members of the team within sight but uh yeah i'll just uh you know circle back a little bit just to
• 56:04
  make sure uh uh that milly is uh can find us just to make sure you know that we've got good synergy
• 56:10
  between all departments you know yes absolutely awesome fantastic so uh all right so we got murl
• 56:17
  at the top of the stairs making sure that uh milly knows where where everybody's gone the the two of
• 56:22
  you that are kind of headed down this hallway you guys find on either side it's just door after door
• 56:28
  after door these are just regular single wooden doors not double doors like before just single
• 56:34
  doors that lead all the way down this hallway on either side well where where do you think too first
• 56:40
  uh well um fizz is he's uh um looking around well i'll just get out of this door and it's the first
• 56:47
  door that he sees within the um the hallway okay sounds good you peek into this first door and inside
• 56:55
  you find just a bedroom uh it's very plain bedroom uh you assume maybe based on some of your previous
• 57:01
  dealings with houses and things like that um this looks like a guest room maybe not like the master
• 57:07
  bedroom but definitely a guest room uh there's a light a very thin layer of dust that coats everything
• 57:14
  it doesn't look like it's been used in a while but it does look like it's been
• 57:18
  more or less upkept um until maybe recently it's a bedroom i i i i gather that much
• 57:26
  yeah i smile i imagine there's quite a few bedrooms in this place i i'd hope so um fizz uh makes a note
• 57:37
  in his uh tablet one bedroom so far uh and just in just to clarify whenever we use the spells so like
• 57:48
  like let's say used ghost ghost awareness can i use that again and does it use another like
• 57:53
  post-it note so you could use it again um but it would use a separate post-it note there so basically
• 58:01
  you get four spells the ideas that spells are kind of like a guarantee success i anyway yeah yeah
• 58:07
  that makes more sense cool yeah absolutely i mean i i probably should check this uh this room for
• 58:15
  spirits and stuff um just to make sure that nobody's overstaying they're welcome um but we can we can
• 58:21
  check some other other areas first if you if you want to well hold on maybe i can uh uh be of use
• 58:30
  since uh uh you know we we've only got so many spells we can use you know uh let me have a crack
• 58:38
  sound thing and um fizz is seeing that there are so many doors within this uh hallway he is
• 58:50
  uh going to use his words of power and he's going to use a spell so he puts his hands out
• 59:02
  and uh sort of um tap in on his uh uh tablet and he says butchers the danger butchers site that's
• 59:11
  that's the one i wanted danger butchers site so what pop fizz wants to happen uh is he's going to
• 59:22
  look into the futures of him opening up every single one of these doors nice i love that in this
• 59:29
  in this hallway and um he's going to make a note of any of the doors that have something dangerous
• 59:38
  or um something that is uh going to cause himself and the the group trouble okay sounds good you cast
• 59:51
  the spell you suddenly your eyes glow and you've looked down this otherwise darkened hallway and
• 59:57
  each one of these doors lights up with sort of this uh emanating aura and here's what i'm going
• 1:00:03
  to pitch to you uh i like the idea that they turn one of three colors green if it's safe based on your
• 1:00:10
  future site yellow if there's something maybe odd and red is dangerous that's cool with you
• 1:00:18
  yeah that sounds that sounds fantastic perfect you every single one of these doors on the right
• 1:00:35
  and left side completely green the far door all the way down at the end of the hallway that kind
• 1:00:40
  of sits right in the center it's not on the left or right it's like on the end wall that one glows
• 1:00:45
  yellow and if at any point you look back behind you if you were walking into the foyer the door on
• 1:00:53
  the left side is glowing red um so um fizz sort of puts his hand out and since holly is there with
• 1:01:04
  them holly i've i've had a vision uh what i could say is down that way at the very end of this hallway
• 1:01:16
  there is a door where something potentially dangerous is inside i don't quite know it just
• 1:01:25
  lets me know what's sort of dangerous it's it's a middle middle in ground over there and over this
• 1:01:33
  door over this way it's red something definitely dangerous in in that direction all right all
• 1:01:43
  right so so so how do how do we how do we persist well you uh if if you don't mind me saying holly
• 1:01:54
  and um uh fizz is much smaller than everyone here they're a little goblin guy just sort of reaches
• 1:02:05
  up and uh just gets a sort of pinch of holly's arm and says holly you've you work out you amazing
• 1:02:20
  sort of structure there i thank you for noticing that i go to the gym every hell man you see is
• 1:02:28
  he starts blushing seeing what the the amazing uh uh feet that you performed just down the stairs i
• 1:02:37
  have no doubt that you do away with whatever is behind the red door i'll be right behind you
• 1:02:44
  all right he's he's he's with the smiles and just starts walking forward which which one you want
• 1:02:53
  you want the yellow one you want the red one you want me to bring my stamp out and kill some
• 1:02:57
  things what do you want me to do oh uh what what what would you say uh since you you know uh would
• 1:03:05
  you like um the main course first or uh the the the starter uh uh uh well when you put it that way
• 1:03:15
  i always like a good little starter to get me started into everything just a little taste here
• 1:03:20
  and there you know that's just that's just me though oh let's go with that let's go with that
• 1:03:26
  let's let's get our teeth sucked into when i say teeth i mean yours all right yeah so you guys head
• 1:03:36
  down this hallway towards the yellow door which is your uh your snack your your starter and you
• 1:03:42
  open it up inside you find another bedroom this one is much larger than all the other ones so you
• 1:03:48
  quickly assume that this must be the master bedroom and as you step inside the thing that really
• 1:03:54
  catches your eye because it has a lot of the normal bedroom stuff it's got a nice big dresser there's
• 1:03:59
  a closet and uh but the one thing that it seems to be missing is an actual like bed instead of a
• 1:04:07
  bed there's actually a giant coffin uh sort of just leaned up against one side of the room
• 1:04:14
  and i think the one other thing that you guys notice is that unlike the bedroom the guest
• 1:04:18
  bedroom which you just saw this one is pretty clean there's no dust in here it's not dirty this
• 1:04:25
  room is in good condition as if it's being used pretty regularly oh my goodness there's squatters
• 1:04:31
  in here i can smell them oh um this is going to quickly look around uh to see if he can spot any
• 1:04:43
  identifying um sort of sigils or marks uh on the coffin or anything within that particular room
• 1:04:52
  yeah absolutely uh do you take a quick peek over into the closet and you notice that it's all it's
• 1:05:02
  it's like in every like comedy movie it's just all of just the same outfit over and over and over again
• 1:05:07
  all hung up on nice wooden hangers and it's just a sort of white t-shirt with the frills on the sleeves
• 1:05:17
  or on the on the ends of the sleeves and on the collar it's got a black vest and then a black sort
• 1:05:24
  of like long cape going along with uh black pants and it looks a lot like the same outfit that's
• 1:05:30
  being worn by the the statue that's out in the foyer oh and and what was then what was it claudria
• 1:05:40
  ardra yes claudra yes yep um holly i might add something i might let me uh let me have a word
• 1:05:52
  with my magical tablet here there might be something online that we can uh find out about this
• 1:05:59
  claudra or whatever uh so he starts tapping into wizepedia and uh types in claudra to see if they
• 1:06:08
  can find anything uh in particular about uh this individual yeah absolutely uh how about you roll
• 1:06:15
  me an ideate roll so you're looking you're gonna roll your uh d4 and you're looking for either a
• 1:06:20
  two or a three let's go okay first roll for me please bloody hell no now now hold up there is an
• 1:06:33
  opportunity here so uh ones can technically be a success so long as it has to do with you working
• 1:06:41
  directly with your department so your department is marketing um so is there any way that you can
• 1:06:46
  kind of describe how your department might be able to back you up on this one with the knowledge that
• 1:06:53
  your department's gonna get or your department manager more likely is gonna get the credit for
• 1:06:57
  this uh sort of this revelation instead of you right oh well let me let me just call him up
• 1:07:04
  he picks up his like really giant uh brick mobile phone he'll uh dials up there hold on yeah i won't
• 1:07:14
  be a minute uh it calls into his department what's your boss's name what would you say is your like
• 1:07:25
  department boss's name uh ginger leisure ginger vicious okay i like it hello yes this is ginger
• 1:07:36
  uh hi six six fizz i'm out and about doing a job for the boss uh right uh would you mind just doing
• 1:07:44
  me a solid here right i'm i'm i'm trying to find out about um i i know we've got all of these files
• 1:07:53
  to do with particular individuals that uh have a certain style you know we we call these sheets on
• 1:08:00
  on our walls uh to get inspiration from and i i think i might have remembered something
• 1:08:06
  and he starts describing the outfit the specific outfit that he's seen in this closet
• 1:08:12
  is is that ringing any any bells to you ginger uh uh i'm coming up with the we've got the name here
• 1:08:21
  claudra anything you can help me i must say you've you've caught me during lunch fizz but uh
• 1:08:27
  based on just kind of a basic thought of what it is that you're describing it it sounds a lot like
• 1:08:33
  uh what was his name there's a there was a vampire lord uh very popular guy but he kind of disappeared
• 1:08:41
  maybe a couple of decades ago from from the public eye oh what was his name uh started with a d
• 1:08:48
  track you that yeah oh yes yes that was the one yes it sounds a lot like uh his m o right so i set
• 1:09:00
  everything you need fizz uh yeah you've you've been a you've been a a a darling there ginger when i
• 1:09:06
  get back to the office with a lunch is on me eh oh that sounds fantastic i'll get back to my reheated
• 1:09:12
  pasta love you where ends to hall turns to holly yeah Dracula apparently uh um matches the
• 1:09:25
  description from ginger she's she's lovely by the way did did you say Dracula yeah Dracula
• 1:09:32
  some vampire lord apparently hollister looks off into the distance with a long stare
• 1:09:39
  and uh and and when you say when you say Dracula you mean like like this this thing it whoever's
• 1:09:49
  staying here is Dracula or or claudra's like an acronym or something or a pseudonym for Dracula
• 1:09:56
  like what was the beat uh you may be onto something there you you've got quite the mind on something
• 1:10:04
  that big beautiful head of yours maybe um i i've got to say i i'm not really familiar with uh uh
• 1:10:13
  too much of uh Dracula's dealings but what i do like is a snazzy outfit i've always found it quite
• 1:10:21
  fascinating actually um would hollister know anything like more about Dracula like because
• 1:10:29
  like right now i'm thinking in terms of like the fact of purification and exorcism that that would
• 1:10:32
  be a well-known name to them oh absolutely um i would say if anything uh maybe give me an
• 1:10:40
  i think this also would fall under ideate if you want to give me an ideate role
• 1:10:45
  all right so i gotta get a two or a three that's a two a two awesome success okay um i would say
• 1:10:52
  yes you think back to your your work within and i actually think this goes all the way back to college
• 1:10:58
  you studied within this kind of realm of uh exorcisms and dealing with the undead and one of
• 1:11:06
  the types of undead that had been talked about and whether or not you took classes that specialized
• 1:11:10
  in vampires um i'll leave that decision up to you but at the very least maybe there was a
• 1:11:16
  general education class that you had to take about vampire specifically and one of the sort of most
• 1:11:23
  famous figures within vampire society is this count Dracula um it's very very stereotypical
• 1:11:31
  to exactly what you probably out of game know about Dracula right he's this kind of like
• 1:11:38
  very posh very very um well mannered vampire but then at the same time he's also pretty well known
• 1:11:44
  for being uh kind of tyrannical to some extent um he he would oftentimes you know you'd hear
• 1:11:52
  about an entire village that got raised down by Dracula and his followers and if lots caler all
• 1:11:59
  that exactly exactly but then on the other hand you also remember hearing a lot of stories about
• 1:12:04
  hey everybody had a whole bunch of fun over at this giant party thrown over at Dracula's mansion
• 1:12:10
  or what have you and also there were some times where you hear about a story of a whole bunch
• 1:12:15
  of people that went to a Dracula party and never came back so you know there's a lot of different
• 1:12:19
  directions that the the proverbial lore on Dracula has taken based on your studies as as
• 1:12:24
  Hollister's were calling that uh like piecing all those things together them thinking back to all
• 1:12:29
  the ghosts that they just exercise well i understand where all those people went but um all right
• 1:12:34
  uh uh Dracula actually this could be something that we could use Fez uh Dracula was a big partier
• 1:12:42
  and if we make it a sort of a i'm thinking i mean you're more the market inside but maybe we angle
• 1:12:48
  this sale from a hey welcome to Dracula's old frat hair i'll see you know oh oh you're you're
• 1:12:55
  you're yeah i like where your mind is yeah let me let me wind this dad he makes some notes
• 1:13:02
  awesome fantastic i love it Dracula's pad he won't take don't you i think i like this is that
• 1:13:11
  is that the sales pitch you want it don't you uh i don't know this yes it's a story yeah yeah yeah
• 1:13:18
  playing hard to get i like it i like it it's it's it's it's a tactic for sure i think by this point
• 1:13:24
  Millie and Merle had both caught up to the rest of the group so you guys step into this uh this i mean
• 1:13:29
  assuming you want to um this large master bedroom yeah sure sure uh i think like yeah you know because
• 1:13:37
  there's uh there's a lot of moving parts and uh we just want to make sure that you know we were
• 1:13:42
  keeping in mind our core values and keeping our uh tiger team together you know because we've been
• 1:13:48
  empowered by the boss you know we're the tiger what what what is going on in here just stopped me
• 1:13:53
  that's to be like what what i'll give you the bullet me look right here right right here is
• 1:13:58
  is the bullet points is the low down from your manfils uh this pad this uh uh house castle place
• 1:14:08
  seems to be owned by Dracula so that's the thing uh here's another bullet point is uh there's a room
• 1:14:19
  down that way which has something potentially terrible within it there you go um maybe maybe
• 1:14:28
  that room has Dracula himself in it uh yeah but good to keep us in the loop there uh uh Thiz i
• 1:14:34
  i appreciate appreciate that yeah that's uh that's great uh maybe maybe we could uh take it take a
• 1:14:39
  moment team to have a little thought shower just to um you know just because it's like one of them
• 1:14:47
  icebreakers that we used to do whenever we would join the company yeah it's that kind of i i just
• 1:14:53
  thinking that this is a bit of a game changer so we should probably uh recalibrate a little bit
• 1:14:57
  and play a game to to change the game exactly you know we would want to make sure that we have a
• 1:15:03
  robust strategy uh moving forward uh you know because uh you know we've been we've got a lot of
• 1:15:08
  faith putting in in us and i i believe personally in our tiger team that everyone is gonna do a good
• 1:15:15
  job and uh you know uh i'm sure we'll have that aha moment soon enough we just need to you know
• 1:15:22
  bounce some ideas off the walls of each other and just yeah it's a little as has anyone ever told
• 1:15:29
  you that you say loads and loads of words but you know listening to you they just go round and round
• 1:15:35
  around in the circle i know right it's so hard to hear them i i i don't see many people many very
• 1:15:43
  often so you're doing wonderfully you really are oh no no no i i i didn't really sign up for this i was
• 1:15:50
  quite happy in my office but um you know the boss says it and you got you gotta do with the bus says
• 1:15:56
  anyway let's uh um let's make hey while the uh while the sun shines so they say so uh uh so okay
• 1:16:04
  so we've got dracula and um something bad behind it's drac dracula if you're gonna say at least
• 1:16:12
  at least give some respect to the name uh i apologize i'll circle back to that uh
• 1:16:18
  dracular you're still you're still there's a there's an r at the end that you're saying and
• 1:16:24
  there there ain't no r there oh dracula yeah yeah that's the one okay uh cool uh right great uh thank
• 1:16:33
  you for uh picking me up on that one keep me in the loop i appreciate that let's really uh thumbs
• 1:16:38
  up going there okay so if we drill down into this then so dracular and um uh red door bad door and uh
• 1:16:47
  okay so you know i want to reinvent the wheel here but maybe there's a way that we can you know
• 1:16:53
  uh think outside the box and really turn this thing on its head you know so anyone have any
• 1:16:59
  thoughts like what what do you what do you mean exactly turn it on its head i i feel like we
• 1:17:04
  could just walk through the door and just be like hey dracula or we could dress up as dracula and say
• 1:17:09
  hey you're not the real dracula i am oh wow that was an amazing idea i've always dreamt of putting on
• 1:17:16
  this exact costume and and there's enough for all of us so we could do that we could really confuse
• 1:17:24
  them and be like we're here now we hope it's been a year okay well okay that's great i
• 1:17:32
  to feel like i'm the only one who's not drinking the koolaid here but uh i really appreciate the
• 1:17:36
  details join us come on no it's great to touch space and uh you know i'll just you know i'll let
• 1:17:43
  you you guys you know forward this and action this and i'll just i'll just supervise i'll be here if
• 1:17:49
  you need i've always heard that peer pressure is the best way to lead i mean how many other chances
• 1:17:55
  are you gonna get to where dracula's at to a close i have an eye for these things
• 1:18:01
  he's a gent with flair and pizzazz and i'm gonna get this pizzazz all over me right now
• 1:18:09
  i've i've just like a picturing like one of the caves just covered in bedazzle like gems
• 1:18:15
  he's got like an elvis version of his exact like normal outfit it's all it's all white and has gems
• 1:18:25
  ever yes i want to imagine this sort of montage of those who are willing to sort of dress in the attire
• 1:18:35
  of dracula given it's all of that sort of energy like you know those sort of like oh who did it
• 1:18:42
  best who wore it best it's like quick cuts of each of you you know putting the sleeve on or
• 1:18:49
  throwing something over to your collar or something like that um checking it out in the mirror as like
• 1:18:54
  each one of you walks up and does sort of like a like a modeling show style walk up towards the
• 1:19:00
  mirror and like does some flair i love that that's great so three of you are now dressed as dracula
• 1:19:06
  yes we make this look good uh well it's great to touch base guys uh a real real key takeaway about
• 1:19:13
  dracula there uh so great uh let's uh let's uh let's action this and move the needle forward i
• 1:19:19
  guess uh so uh uh yeah what's the big idea what's the you know what's the what's the what's the real
• 1:19:25
  the real uh the real thing here the real i want to hear your thoughts the real blue sky thinking
• 1:19:31
  are you asking like how we're gonna deal with dracula sorry if is if you if you want to go ahead
• 1:19:36
  you can go no no no it's an open forum guys i'm good so you can speak now
• 1:19:45
  i mean like if we're going into the red door and there isn't dracula then we should figure out
• 1:19:50
  once we get in there but like if we go in we should either do it like how we're talking right now
• 1:19:56
  like with how good we look in these like maybe make it a fashion off and see who could be better
• 1:20:00
  and be like if we win then yeah then you have to leave your place and stuff like that or we do a
• 1:20:06
  dance off because clearly the macarain is popular here that's just i'm just spitballing here no no
• 1:20:11
  no no that's great it's really out of the box you know it's uh it's a disruptive innovation it's uh
• 1:20:17
  you know it's it's it's different uh and they won't be expecting it and that's you know sometimes
• 1:20:21
  that is best practice you know it's the best way uh real make an impact i think hey hey well come on
• 1:20:28
  come on and and fizz is like grabbing one of the capes uh from and he's just placing it on trying to
• 1:20:34
  place on the shelves but he's so sure come on come on just just see how it feels on you look
• 1:20:40
  it's wonderful fabric it feels so lovely honestly i mean well mel's not going to resist but he's
• 1:20:45
  equally not going to help so he's just going to let like fizz just struggle with it this is this
• 1:20:53
  like jumping up and down trying to get it over your shoulders uh um we'll say we'll say that the
• 1:21:00
  capes sticks well how about we we tell them the truth and we we're like Dracula look we're selling
• 1:21:06
  this place so why don't you go out with a big party we know you like parties we like parties
• 1:21:11
  we'll just stop as you it's going to be fun it's going to be amazing help us tidy this place up
• 1:21:15
  and then you can go your own way ah so it's uh instead of leverage where we're you're talking
• 1:21:22
  about reaching out to uh to this contact i know that's that's that's right like a big farewell party
• 1:21:28
  thank you for your service now off your pop that's a very angle it's robust i appreciate that yeah
• 1:21:33
  i'm if you see you see fizz just sort of looking up like these gears are turning in his head um
• 1:21:41
  so we have the contract for this property right so are we saying that Dracula is squatting in this
• 1:21:50
  house he doesn't actually own it or we don't have the right to uh because we could probably do some
• 1:21:59
  sort of thing where uh you know if he's looking to stay here we could talk about it within the uh
• 1:22:07
  uh the terms of whoever moves in you're moving in with Dracula the party machine make it a feature
• 1:22:18
  i like it is for some some kind of concern though like if our patron isn't necessarily vampire or
• 1:22:25
  jason that they would just be paying just to die i mean i i appreciate the the different uh
• 1:22:31
  approaches here and the pushback i think is also important part of this process um so uh but i would
• 1:22:37
  there's one thing i i just coming to my mind uh isn't there a i heard something about vampires
• 1:22:45
  that they can't be get in somewhere unless they're invited so so therefore what you're saying is we
• 1:22:52
  need to kick Dracula out and then not invite him back in yeah or we could perhaps um mislead him into
• 1:23:02
  leaving and then yeah not allow him back in i mean i i did i did study an enchantment if that's
• 1:23:10
  something that we need but we could promise what what's something that the Dracula wants sorry Dracula
• 1:23:16
  wants i put an r in there Dracula wants yeah thank you he was bothering me it's just a little uh
• 1:23:24
  it's it's just my uh particular region regional dialect it's it's it's it's it's difficult sometimes
• 1:23:29
  uh you're all you're all good i'm sorry for bringing it up oh no no no thanks absolutely it's uh you
• 1:23:35
  know it's just sometimes you just want to turn the page on these things you know um absolutely well
• 1:23:40
  well i'm thinking like like i could i could potentially depend on how we swing it i could
• 1:23:45
  use a spell or something to to make Dracula think that the world is his oyster or whatever they say
• 1:23:51
  and use my dream magic on him and be like hey this is not where you want to be there better
• 1:23:56
  better even bigger frat houses for you to party in yeah let's i hear that's a purification and
• 1:24:03
  ecstasyism that that's that's really up right up your alley i appreciate that and maybe we could
• 1:24:09
  also bring in some magical marketing into this uh holly uh sorry fizz holly if we can i i i i i
• 1:24:18
  i i was talking to holly and i was looking at you and it was very confusing i'm sorry uh so uh
• 1:24:23
  you're all right you know uh you know thought thought shower a lot of things going on brain
• 1:24:27
  dumping i apologize but um so what if fizz there's a way that you can is do you think there's a way
• 1:24:34
  that we can uh best advertise dies this or um well you know absolutely i'm sure there's
• 1:24:44
  ways in which we could deal with this but we kind of need to find out what the deal is from the game
• 1:24:50
  i mean all of this is uh uh conjecture at this point we we we don't know if the person that is here
• 1:24:57
  is actually Dracula they might just be fans who knows but let's find out let's let's go i
• 1:25:03
  know i agree we should drill down into the details we really should uh you know circle back to this
• 1:25:07
  this meeting later and you know go over what we find in our and our bit of a reaching out
• 1:25:13
  investigation i appreciate he just continues circling around with phrases fizz is like
• 1:25:19
  started walking out the room and good talk good talk synergy it's nice to break down silos you know
• 1:25:26
  yeah uh millie you're still here actually no i've gone i guess i'll see you know i was gonna
• 1:25:34
  i was gonna say you see as holister just waves i'm i'm still here i i don't know oh no but oh well
• 1:25:39
  i think thank you holly i that's great um probably should see where the other two went though uh so uh
• 1:25:45
  yeah i'll i'll follow okay it's so uncomfortable not being in the back so uh
• 1:25:53
  i
• 1:25:55
  easy swiss there's just smiling huge the entire time
• 1:25:59
  don't need to do stuff he's really a passive guy he really doesn't want to do things we's like okay fine
• 1:26:04
  awesome so you guys are headed to the door that had glowed red previously yes yeah i i i i guess
• 1:26:12
  i'm walking uh alongside millie and uh fizz is like a say always like that
• 1:26:21
  what would you what's your grasp of old ma old mao there uh millie i've not had much contact with him
• 1:26:28
  but he doesn't stop he would go on unless you can find a way for him to stop sometimes it's feeding him
• 1:26:34
  he does like donuts other times it's just agreeing or you know like we did walk out you go and get
• 1:26:41
  stuff done and then he can find someone else to get stuff done for him do you know what we need to get
• 1:26:46
  him drunk you need to get a drink in him i think anyway loosing him up a little bit he's a bit tight
• 1:26:53
  well yeah that could be fun anyway uh this is the door i was telling you about what do you think
• 1:27:01
  millie what what what what should we do i've always been told it's polite to knock so she knocks
• 1:27:07
  a great idea i do want to say so you guys to to get to this door this is one of the doors on the
• 1:27:13
  first floor so you guys came down the hallway and then down the stairs and then you're you're now at
• 1:27:18
  the door that would be on the the left side if you were looking at it from the entrance so um millie
• 1:27:22
  stands before the door and she offers a knock and you can kind of hear from behind the door uh it
• 1:27:29
  almost sounds like it echoes the sound of your knocking and just kind of uh slowly disappears
• 1:27:36
  into the distance so whatever's behind this is is quite the cavernous uh room or or something
• 1:27:42
  you're not a hundred percent sure but you do give a knock and there is no response well well it sounds
• 1:27:48
  like there's a lot in there shall we shall we go yeah after you millie i'll follow you through
• 1:27:54
  it's mill do not millie do uh uh that's trying to be smart that millie oh oh millie millie works yeah
• 1:28:01
  um yep she'll open the door all right uh you open the door and you find a descending stone
• 1:28:10
  just plain stone it's got kind of like a a brown tone to it almost like a dirt light dirt color
• 1:28:15
  there are sconces along the wall that are all lit up and it just is a descending staircase
• 1:28:22
  close to look at the wall and just a little bit just see how dusty and dirty it is oh yeah it's
• 1:28:28
  it's pretty dusty uh there's a lot of cobwebs that kind of line this wall as well and uh definitely
• 1:28:34
  just it almost kind of feels like dirt just kind of crumbles off of it um almost like this is made
• 1:28:40
  maybe from a mixture of sort of like a mud caking and stone right i think we're gonna have to figure
• 1:28:49
  out everything that's down here and then just get rid of this filth there's a lot of it i'm
• 1:28:54
  gonna have to chuck a spell at it i think one of my had you nexus and that sounds like a plan to me
• 1:28:59
  you hear holly in the back all right don't do that sorry i i have notoriously silent footsteps
• 1:29:07
  it's a real ninja yeah yes are you guys headed down the the staircase then uh yeah
• 1:29:15
  yeah you'll look at the rest of the group and if they nod she will leap away awesome all right
• 1:29:21
  you descend the stone staircase and at the bottom of it you find yourselves in a cold
• 1:29:27
  subterranean chamber there's a ton of cobwebs that sort of just cover almost the entire ceiling if
• 1:29:34
  not just like coming off of various corners and touching onto walls and in sort of a triangular
• 1:29:40
  shape all across this room the air is heavy and still and it kind of gives a scent of damp earth
• 1:29:49
  and sort of that age just like uh something that's just in sort of cooped up with no means of of new
• 1:29:56
  air or escape for for a long time and additionally amidst these various spider webs and cobwebs
• 1:30:05
  you notice a number of characters that seem to be shuffling around this room specifically two
• 1:30:11
  characters there's a handful of what seem to be maybe six shuffling individuals just wrapped in
• 1:30:20
  this sort of paper wrapping they almost look like mummies and additionally amidst these mummies who
• 1:30:28
  seem to be just shuffling around following these little skittering scarab beetles that are crawling
• 1:30:34
  across the floor amidst them you also see some skeletons individuals with no flesh on their
• 1:30:40
  bodies whatsoever just the bones that would hide underneath and they each have a broom and they
• 1:30:45
  seem to be just kind of following along these mummies sweeping up the floor behind them because
• 1:30:51
  these mummies seem to be just dripping sand onto the floor constantly every footstep that they take
• 1:30:58
  a bunch of sand just crumbles off of them onto the floor uh this is the scene that you see before you
• 1:31:04
  oh come on you guys look at them and those all they're doing their best those two with the
• 1:31:08
  broom's blessing but do you think they're like enchanted to like make sure that it stays clean
• 1:31:14
  like why would they even put the mummies in here if it was just going to make the place dirty
• 1:31:17
  right well well maybe they were going to go and like clean the rest of the place but these mummies
• 1:31:24
  are just well I mean they're just like leaking aren't they maybe maybe maybe we could uh maybe we
• 1:31:32
  could get them to work with you or help us in cleaning tidying up the property if we can deal with
• 1:31:41
  the uh uh wrapped up folk like that yeah along the wall you also notice there's a handful of like
• 1:31:48
  ornate almost golden looking sarcophagi sarcophagus is I think you're right I'm a
• 1:31:55
  sarcophagi I think you're right yeah that are just kind of like leaning up obviously they all have
• 1:31:59
  the doors open and they're all empty there are six of them that you notice that you count around
• 1:32:05
  this room just like how there are six mummies so maybe we need to try and get them back into the
• 1:32:12
  coffins or sarcophagi yeah instead of thinking out of the box we got to put them back in the box
• 1:32:19
  that is that that's a good pun sir oh that thank you I thank you it's a robust feedback and I
• 1:32:28
  appreciate that anytime all right how we doing it how we put them in their coffins we doing a little
• 1:32:34
  like hey you over there and then like trying to shoo man or like what well uh there's uh there seem
• 1:32:41
  to be more of them than there are of us but uh perhaps that is something I could change uh Merwill
• 1:32:50
  just straighten up his tie uh and uh and just say um so this like greenish glow emanating from him
• 1:33:00
  we say uh fake creatures and it's summon some fake creatures awesome what kind of fake creatures
• 1:33:08
  are you bringing into this room with you guys these will be sort of I guess some these kind of
• 1:33:15
  fairies like wind fairies air they'd like to do the wind in the air yeah absolutely actually I think
• 1:33:21
  there's a system in this uh if you want to roll your d10 and that will kind of help us determine
• 1:33:27
  how many of these fairies are inside I'm delegating to the fairies 10 wow all right max number fantastic
• 1:33:34
  technically uh you can actually roll again because it does explode the dice uh whenever you roll your
• 1:33:41
  max number so we're we're about to look at a very large number of fairies in this room
• 1:33:45
  eight here we go Christ wow all right so eight mean fairies just manifest throughout this room
• 1:33:53
  what are you having them do okay so if you could all just round up these uh these
• 1:34:01
  individuals reach out to these um wrapped individuals and get them to circle back into
• 1:34:08
  and park them inside their boxes then we can you know we'll see what's next but let's go good
• 1:34:15
  good hustle team uh go go sweat team make make make hey all right sounds good your fairies immediately
• 1:34:21
  get to work I think they probably between the 18 of them one at a time a handful of them maybe like
• 1:34:28
  eight or so or maybe they split in half right nine are pushing the each mummy back into their
• 1:34:33
  into their sarcophagus and then the other nine are waiting with the door to push the sarcophagus
• 1:34:40
  sarcophagus closed and one by one you make pretty quick work of these mummies that are
• 1:34:47
  dirtying up this entire space leaving you with just the skeletons and then of course you do notice
• 1:34:52
  the bugs on the floor the the scarabs on the floor and then above you in those cobwebs and
• 1:34:57
  spiderwebs there are some spiders that you do see skittering around as well well that's one actionable
• 1:35:03
  item uh that's me millie cleaning sure i'm gonna get some dusters out give them a shake and get to
• 1:35:13
  work oh i thought you're gonna delegate to the scout no no you i won't harsh your mellow you
• 1:35:19
  carry on oh no they can oh you bony bony turny what are you what one of them stands at attention
• 1:35:26
  and salutes all right you start on that end and you uh skinny sticky whitey go do that side
• 1:35:37
  um do you want to give me a delegate roll with my d6 yeah we should do also this one i'm sorry
• 1:35:44
  no it's totally fair you're giving orders to to get somebody else to kind of start working for you
• 1:35:50
  i think that's uh that's fair you're looking for uh i guess in your case five or six that's
• 1:35:55
  sound good nice okay both of them standing at attention they both give you like kind of a salute
• 1:36:02
  and immediately one goes off to one corner and just starts sweeping away and the other one
• 1:36:07
  starts it's just kind of cleaning uh whatever area you you pointed out for the for the first one
• 1:36:12
  all right i think i can give these guys to it and then come back as all of this has been happening
• 1:36:17
  with merle um bringing on his fairy team and um millie delegating to the the skeleton squad
• 1:36:28
  a fizz again is got his magical tablet out and there's sort of filming footage of all of this
• 1:36:35
  stuff happening uh for use later in in an uh sort of advert amazing you guys look amazing and the
• 1:36:43
  the skeletons like they look up and they're like they're a little surprised they kind of have that
• 1:36:47
  like oh stop recording me kind of a thing but but they give you kind of like a thumbs up like
• 1:36:52
  sweeping and they've got this big smile on their face they're not looking at where
• 1:36:56
  sweeping and they end up like bumping into a wall and they shake their head and then they go back to
• 1:36:59
  what they were doing yeah free cleaners i guess that's a that's a great advert right there fantastic
• 1:37:04
  all right well you guys have uh successfully uh gotten rid of the mummies that were down here in
• 1:37:10
  this this basement this unfinished basement area and you've gotten the uh free help the in the form
• 1:37:16
  of two skeletons to start getting things cleaned for you where you guys headed next what else what
• 1:37:22
  else have we not what what else do we have options of just because i'm pre-inning actually the only
• 1:37:26
  thing that you haven't checked out yet is that other door on the main floor on the opposite side of
• 1:37:32
  sort of the foyer well i guess let's go there right all right fantastic you guys uh head back up those
• 1:37:37
  sort of musty dirty stairs uh to head over to this second area and you open up the doors to find an
• 1:37:47
  elegant chamber lined with a number of portraits that are hung on the wall each depicting a sort of
• 1:37:54
  adaptation of Dracula wearing different historical and even oftentimes a celebrity-like attire from
• 1:38:03
  again various decades dusty bookshelves packed with ancient looking volumes stand against the
• 1:38:08
  opposite wall from these these these walls of portraits creating a sort of forgotten grandeur
• 1:38:16
  this this room looks like a place to entertain high society guests have a few drinks smoke a
• 1:38:23
  couple of cigars and uh you know maybe play like a game of pool uh one key feature is that in the
• 1:38:29
  middle of this room is a small circular stage and on top of it sits a beautiful grand piano maybe this
• 1:38:36
  is where they played the macarena but only instrumental version hmm yeah this uh this
• 1:38:43
  Dracula knows that to party it seems uh no no sight of them now doesn't appear to be maybe they
• 1:38:52
  accidentally fell on the mode outside happens to me before uh yeah uh what sorry uh out of
• 1:38:59
  character what time of day is it that's a good question i would say it's probably hitting around
• 1:39:03
  like uh maybe noon to one o'clock at this point okay uh so fair fair ask uh which case uh well
• 1:39:13
  we'll take a look out wear some light hopefully there's a window you can look out absolutely uh
• 1:39:20
  well i no i don't don't mean to push back here and uh you know uh to really uh dampen anyone's
• 1:39:28
  idea shower here but um maybe it's because it's daylight that he's not although it surely he would
• 1:39:36
  be uh i thought he would be asleep maybe or something like that i feel like we would have found his
• 1:39:44
  coffin by now i mean right well there isn't often it there is a coffin in the bedroom we we uh you
• 1:39:52
  know where we got these snazzy outfits from was that coffin open i don't i don't think it was open
• 1:40:00
  dm it wasn't open um it was not are you telling me that we didn't check the casket for Dracula himself
• 1:40:13
  uh i i just like i said not gonna lie i like his style but i don't know this law and history
• 1:40:25
  not my jam that's okay we'll have to circle back i think at some point yeah we can really drill down
• 1:40:35
  into that uh later on we've got some got some real learning there uh everybody uh we can't take
• 1:40:41
  any of these things for granted i guess so but speaking of things not taken for granted um
• 1:40:45
  grand piano does anyone know how to play no i i i am not a musician myself no sadly i am creative
• 1:40:56
  in many ways in the visual and the musical let me play a little ditty for you get some maybe we
• 1:41:04
  could use this as a jingle in the advert dorik we want to vote for core competencies we could
• 1:41:10
  hear out i'll i'll i'll take your fantasy camera if you want me to oh yes yes yes uh
• 1:41:17
  catch my good side all right you see as you see as um holister like has never really held
• 1:41:25
  like a video camera before and tries to like get get a good angle and it's like crooked in his in
• 1:41:32
  his hands as he's trying to like put it up it seems like it's time it's time for you to go
• 1:41:38
  i press the button it looks like so fizz starts playing uh on the piano
• 1:41:45
  oh what a beautiful house this could be we have Dracula used to stay here
• 1:42:02
  and if you like the party like a monster this would be the house for you yeah nice i love it
• 1:42:16
  as you kind of come to the end of your your song you hear a voice come from behind you that says
• 1:42:24
  what the drag man huh and you turn to see uh to look to where the voice kind of came from and
• 1:42:32
  there's nobody standing there but instead you see one of the paintings of Dracula
• 1:42:37
  its mouth is moving and it is the actually ironically the 1970s disco king Dracula painting
• 1:42:46
  which has the exact outfit on that we had mentioned before of sort of that Elvis
• 1:42:51
  impersonation Dracula style outfit uh the one it's it's it's wearing right now yeah i was
• 1:42:56
  going to say it's the one that this is wearing um and he says that is so bogus oh uh everyone's
• 1:43:04
  the critic yeah yeah peep on trucking elsewhere well you didn't like my song what was wrong with it
• 1:43:13
  constructed criticism if you please you know instructives criticisms all i can offer is
• 1:43:20
  the worst criticisms of ever understood uh uh well you know everyone's everyone's allowed to say
• 1:43:30
  you know mean things you know me just me coming in there trying to say my friends and play something
• 1:43:36
  nice for everyone i thought it was very nice no matter what the bad painting says he ain't even
• 1:43:43
  look like Dracula you know i enjoyed it too i i if i if i may say uh that uh that that uh criticism
• 1:43:52
  was uh kind of robust but that doesn't mean um uh perhaps there could be some other uh reason
• 1:44:00
  if maybe if we sort of uh really uh let's it's real uh really drill down and deep dive into this
• 1:44:06
  this this guy in the painting here um i i take it you haven't seen many other uh sites being that you
• 1:44:14
  can't move is that correct uh one of the other paintings the 19th century sort of romantic hero
• 1:44:21
  or or by ironic paint poet speaks up it's also Dracula obviously all of them are Dracula um but
• 1:44:28
  this one speaks up and he goes bold the dash i have been everywhere and experienced cultures
• 1:44:34
  beyond your wildest dreams uh okay okay i i i meant you and individually as paintings haven't left
• 1:44:44
  this room correct yeah notice how there there hasn't been any clarification of what those
• 1:44:49
  experiences were but just a generalized statement yeah that that is that that's really true uh one
• 1:44:55
  of the uh one of the other ones uh now speaks up it is a 18th century kind of looks like a a uh
• 1:45:01
  enlightened gentleman and he says fire fire upon your partners you are as dull as dishwater no
• 1:45:09
  there's nothing constrict constructive about any of the criticism has been had here uh well you know
• 1:45:16
  we can always uh maybe park this uh for later and he just goes over to like grab one of the
• 1:45:21
  paintings and he's just gonna try and turn it around all right i love it do you uh so there's
• 1:45:27
  there are oh boy there are a lot of paintings there's a i mean really honestly just give me a
• 1:45:33
  century and there's probably a painting for it okay great i'll turn over one painting to make a
• 1:45:40
  point do you have a preference on century uh let's go with the uh let's let's go let's go with the
• 1:45:47
  third one that that said that said the mill was boring although it's true he would still
• 1:45:52
  want to make an example yes the the 19th century uh a painting of Dracula in a very style fitting
• 1:46:02
  of that time and age um is shouting out hey may your trousers always be as you flip them over
• 1:46:12
  and turn them to uh face the wall yeah how about that taking him out of the loop you see
• 1:46:17
  that's um something we could all appreciate i think right let that be a lesson to the rest of
• 1:46:23
  you all right you see one that's in like a 19 just like a 90s uh it's got like a flannel shirt uh
• 1:46:30
  ripped jeans back martin's unkempt hair uh and it just says whatever talk to the hand losers mill
• 1:46:40
  do you uh and your cleaning supplies you wouldn't have to have any turpentine would you you know i do
• 1:46:47
  do you want a few drops so it just kind of dribbles really slowly or do you want a big
• 1:46:51
  spritz so they just evaporate instantly well look it's one of your core competencies i'll leave
• 1:46:57
  that uh up to you for your uh you know whatever leverage you'd like to use is there any information
• 1:47:03
  we can get from these paintings do you think or are they just full of s why don't you uh
• 1:47:09
  why don't you intimidate them with your turpentine sure yeah yeah why don't you do that i i can assist
• 1:47:17
  if you require aid but i'm more than happy to let you uh make hay you know let them have it millie
• 1:47:25
  let them have it i get the turps out you do the talking all right mill you're very very good at talking
• 1:47:31
  so should you are approaching one of them do you guys have a preference on which one you're
• 1:47:38
  gonna go to uh i should have probably established i have everything from 17th century where it's like
• 1:47:44
  kind of a baroque dandy character all the way down to modern day i will let of course we're gonna let
• 1:47:51
  millie cheese yes yes absolutely yeah let's go for the dapper looking chap in the 1920s dapper
• 1:47:57
  or dapper looking drak i love that all right sounds good you approach and this uh this uh this
• 1:48:05
  drakula this version a very enlightened gentleman looking uh drakula uh speaks out uh sila you
• 1:48:13
  you buffoon uh fire fire upon your manners well it's not very kind is it and she'll put a little
• 1:48:20
  dab of turpentine on her finger and just run it along the side of the painting just next to his
• 1:48:26
  portrait so the colors start to run yeah you hear almost a sizzling sound as you run your finger
• 1:48:32
  across this paint and he goes uh uh stop that uh a pox upon your sensibilities well i'm sorry you
• 1:48:40
  want a pox do you want more of this oh wait hold on no don't do that well now uh listen here uh uh
• 1:48:48
  friend we're we're reaching out to you because we feel that maybe uh we could uh have a robust
• 1:48:56
  converse conversation and maybe uh have some impact with uh uh our style here but this room
• 1:49:03
  appears to be one that uh people would perform in and so uh with this uh uh this grand piano with
• 1:49:12
  its sender is that correct would you say that this this room this piano please horrible music
• 1:49:20
  what do you want with it well uh obviously if this place was going on the market this would be
• 1:49:26
  some kind of uh music room correct this would be a performance space and so what we can have in here
• 1:49:33
  is a bunch of uh critics that are going to give less than helpful uh criticism at all times this
• 1:49:41
  you know not very um not very friendly that's not really going to gain traction with our clients
• 1:49:47
  so uh perhaps um we could come to some arrangement where in you uh instead perhaps um
• 1:49:54
  kind of dig deep into yourselves and maybe give something more positive or constructive uh to
• 1:50:01
  those that uh perform in this space and in exchange uh we will not uh well my friend here will not
• 1:50:09
  have to remove you does that uh sound like something that we could come uh perhaps uh work with here
• 1:50:16
  i love this uh muril i'm gonna have you give me a delegate as you try to seek out maybe some some
• 1:50:23
  amount of either alliance or like empathy from this painting let's go oh no four just shy um so
• 1:50:32
  this actually comes to an interesting uh predicament so the painting does not seem swayed by your words
• 1:50:39
  and as part of this uh you would take on a condition so the conditions are all based on sort of this
• 1:50:46
  idea that uh the stress is starting to get to you within this job and they come in the form of either
• 1:50:52
  crabby overworked existential or just done um so you get to choose which one of those you take and
• 1:51:00
  then based on the one that you take you will have uh disadvantage on rules for uh ideate perpetrate
• 1:51:06
  liquidate or delegate uh in that order uh based on the the conditions that i mentioned okay uh
• 1:51:15
  i think for muril uh let's go with overworked because you know he's not used to being out of the
• 1:51:20
  office you uh coming up and and talking to these paintings in and of itself is is more effort
• 1:51:26
  than you would usually like to have to put in so um it's starting to kind of get to you a little
• 1:51:31
  bit the stress is starting to get to you uh you're starting to feel just a little bit overworked so
• 1:51:36
  feel free to mark that on uh your character sheet if you have it yeah on hand or i can kind of okay
• 1:51:40
  perfect awesome um you're feeling a little bit overworked at this moment and he says um
• 1:51:45
  i will not be told what to do in the comforts of my own home you on the other hand are free to
• 1:51:54
  leave there is the door and he like puts he's like massages his temples he's like i really not get
• 1:52:02
  paid enough for this um uh i'm going to uh it just turns to to milled you and the others and
• 1:52:10
  uh he says i i think i'm just gonna put a cup put a pot of coffee on uh i i yeah you take over
• 1:52:17
  that that's just fine all right i mean it's not wrong there is the door but also there is the wall
• 1:52:22
  and she'll take the painting and flip it around so it's facing the wall all right and once again
• 1:52:27
  he just you hear him saying oh buffoon as you cover up this this painting as well
• 1:52:36
  so does anyone think you can get any useful information from these paintings uh millie
• 1:52:41
  you'd like to uh do a ideate as you kind of seek out ideas to to okay that's a success um i will
• 1:52:51
  give you this uh as you ran your finger over that that previous painting with the the the turpentine
• 1:52:57
  on causing the paint to kind of dissipate one thing that you noticed was there was a small
• 1:53:04
  inscription on the one of the corners that read the you know the artist's name which was
• 1:53:11
  ablano the cante was the name of this artist and as you kind of turn to look around the room
• 1:53:19
  to ask for everybody else's ideas you notice that sitting on top of the piano is a sort of ornate
• 1:53:27
  paint brush that is inside of sort of like a little glass display case um uh fizz hello you
• 1:53:36
  know how you're sort of all into the um advertising and sales so you'll know what will and won't be a
• 1:53:43
  good look right oh absolutely i'm the i'm the creative type yes okay so drawing glasses or
• 1:53:53
  mustaches on these paintings do you think that would help with sales just kind of sell this place as a
• 1:54:00
  fun place oh hmm hmm well i'm not i'm not quite sure he's um he's looking at the the paintings that are
• 1:54:10
  sort of still there already uh that aren't turned around and um are all of the paintings that are
• 1:54:19
  there are they frowning uh yes yes and if you approach any of them they start to go off on
• 1:54:26
  their kind of rude criticisms or or just rude language so um milley what if we were to turn
• 1:54:37
  those frowns upside down on the painting as it were make him happy maybe that would provide the
• 1:54:49
  positive attitude from each of these gloomy lot i mean it's worth a try we could try it on one
• 1:54:56
  oh that's that's a real nice idea i like that well if if you wouldn't mind uh milley i i'm a
• 1:55:06
  dab end with a paint brush all right i'm happy for you to go for it um so fizz sort of grabs the
• 1:55:14
  little piano stall because he's not really tall enough to you know yeah get into the right way
• 1:55:21
  and they show for these these he steps onto this uh the stall and he turns well the the one that is
• 1:55:29
  wearing the 1970s outfit the blinged rhinestone now listen here you look absolutely fabulous i'm
• 1:55:40
  just going to make an adjustment to your face that uh fits in better with your retire you need to
• 1:55:49
  smile just like this look at look at look at my fabulous tape and he's just going to paint um a
• 1:55:57
  wonderful smile onto this Dracula and uh put in those fantastic sharp fangs of his nice i love
• 1:56:09
  this so much okay so you paint in this delightful smile over Dracula's prior frown and as soon as you
• 1:56:18
  put the finishing brush on uh from the the stroke he says oh your aura is totally groovy man can you
• 1:56:29
  take it oh i can take it yes you're speaking my language finally don't we both look absolutely
• 1:56:39
  fabulous in this attire look at this again you and i are truly this going inferno oh yeah and
• 1:56:48
  um Fizz is doing the the sort of um John Travolta dumps very nice awesome and and although the
• 1:56:57
  painting can only move so much his head does kind of like nod a little bit to sort of the rhythm you
• 1:57:03
  guys are creating now i have to ask what about the other paintings hmm well we've got a lot to do here
• 1:57:12
  um he's going to uh um sort of uh talk to he's noticed that um Merle you know he was kind of uh
• 1:57:28
  not looking great from that last sort of encounter with the horrible painting and um
• 1:57:36
  very gay coffee he's got from nowhere he's he's he's he's gonna approach Merle and says i'm
• 1:57:44
  i'm sorry for what i said earlier it's been sort of playing around in my mind but watching you work
• 1:57:53
  is a thing to behold Merle you you have an ability of getting people to do what they need to do at
• 1:58:03
  that exact moment in time and as i recall you happen to have a workforce that is uh at hand
• 1:58:15
  you know in the property your very friends do you do you think they might be able to help with
• 1:58:25
  this particular renovation that we would need on these paintings as you can say our disc
• 1:58:33
  go friendly Dracula is all smiles uh yeah um out of character because obviously the spell was
• 1:58:43
  some of the fake creatures now i don't know if they're still around or if they've sort of dissipated
• 1:58:48
  yeah that's a very good point uh normally it would be towards like one task um but of course
• 1:58:57
  you're always more than welcome to cast a second spell um and and bring forth another you know
• 1:59:04
  workforce whether it be the second one or or maybe you switch it up to something different
• 1:59:08
  uh okay and he's sort of like uh on hearing like he's not along with uh with what Fizz is saying
• 1:59:15
  and goes yeah you know kid um i mean Fizz Fizz Fizz Widd up his kid oh i'm sorry um yeah i'm the
• 1:59:24
  size of a kid i can understand the confusion no it's just i just you have a junior way about you
• 1:59:30
  it's it's it's great um i yeah let's we'll park that what you you've just reminded me of something
• 1:59:37
  that actually could deal with this problem in a slightly more um in a slightly more permanent
• 1:59:46
  way and he'll snap his fingers and summon his void filing cabinet his secret edge very nice okay
• 1:59:54
  we could always put the paintings in here follow them away as they are not particularly um
• 2:00:00
  of the aesthetic of this particular i don't think it really has the impact in this room that we're
• 2:00:06
  looking for uh i'm all i'm bored for that as long as uh this jack gets to stay and he points a wink
• 2:00:17
  calivari at a 70s dreck oh and and 100% gives you a nice big wink back my guy uh yes i see you've um
• 2:00:28
  empowered uh this one uh a bit that that's that that's good that's a i appreciate that the core
• 2:00:34
  competencies uh you're always thinking of of our core values here at ddr um yeah like let's uh okay
• 2:00:41
  well if we form some kind of uh if we if you can delegate into some kind of kind of way that we
• 2:00:48
  can get these paintings if anyone has any spells that would be useful here or any other methods
• 2:00:54
  that we could get them uh into this uh to to me and then i can file them away uh that would be most
• 2:01:00
  appreciated you want them all rounded up that's right we need to get our paintings in a row
• 2:01:06
  do all we have to do is just like take them off the wall or yeah all right but he is holy just
• 2:01:11
  starts going grabbing some pains there we go there seems like a low hanging fruit yeah and of course
• 2:01:17
  each one it's a series of kind of unpleasant rude remarks as you as you pick it up off the
• 2:01:23
  wall and take it over and place it into the void hull is just ignoring the entire time yeah as
• 2:01:31
  they're as as they're sort of gathering it up fizz uh walks over to the piano and starts
• 2:01:39
  twinkling another chain nah nah nah nah nah and hey hey good bye yeah nice uh and well we'll
• 2:01:52
  supervise and make sure each of the paintings is put into the draw in uh in chronological order
• 2:01:58
  oh very nice okay beautiful i love that just a little added detail there fantastic so to the
• 2:02:05
  tune of a fizzward songs these these horribly rude and and ridiculous paintings get put into
• 2:02:12
  the void filing cabinet of murals possibly never to be seen again so fantastic as you guys put the
• 2:02:21
  finishing touches on getting rid of these paintings you sort of clap your hands together um a job well
• 2:02:28
  done and you do notice that over in one side of this this room that you've now entered you do notice
• 2:02:34
  there is another set of doors um whether you would notice that before i know i didn't mention it before
• 2:02:39
  but uh it's possible you noticed it earlier but kind of we're focusing on the on these paintings
• 2:02:44
  but now you're kind of looking at it seeing a next possible opportunity so double doors that's
• 2:02:50
  that's what you said yep yep a new another set of double doors these ones aren't as like uh you know
• 2:02:56
  large thick okan doors these are more just kind of like um almost like a double uh closet doors
• 2:03:04
  or something along those lines well looks like that's the next place ahead too right let's go
• 2:03:11
  you guys open up these doors and find a a long spiraling staircase that seems to lead up towards
• 2:03:19
  the one tower that this castle sort of features towards towards the top of it where there's almost
• 2:03:25
  looks like sort of a viewing area right somebody could go up there and um look out upon the land
• 2:03:32
  that encompasses or surrounds this this castle i think i think holly just starts heading up if
• 2:03:37
  everyone else okay okay sounds good yeah i always like to just double check um but no that's totally
• 2:03:43
  perfect so you guys head upstairs and as you kind of peek your heads uh through what is sort of like
• 2:03:50
  almost like a hatch opening uh you find a sort of uh again this viewing room you can see uh there's
• 2:03:57
  plenty of different windows uh open air kind of concept where with a few different like even telescopes
• 2:04:04
  that are sort of on little like pedestals that stick up from the flooring and the thing that
• 2:04:10
  surprises you most is there is a table with some chairs surrounding it almost like a small dining
• 2:04:17
  table and there are people in these chairs all of which seem to be absolutely asleep you do see them
• 2:04:26
  breathing ever so slightly but they all you know they had their mouths agape you you hear an occasional
• 2:04:31
  snoring sound or you see a little bit of a drool kind of coming out of the corner of one of their
• 2:04:37
  mouths and sitting across from all of these figures at the very end of the table you see what looks like
• 2:04:44
  Dracula himself his back is turned towards you and he's looking out onto the uh just kind of out
• 2:04:54
  one of the windows looking out upon the the land uh out of character is it your daylight out uh yeah
• 2:05:02
  yeah she's very odd for sure yeah is he not in the sunlight is he like just underneath the top of
• 2:05:09
  the tower or yes yes i think they're tame once we've all been sleeping peaks uh uh more squatters
• 2:05:19
  we need to get rid of uh uh fizzler do you want to do an eye the gate roll real quick
• 2:05:24
  yeah as you as you kind of look over these these sleeping people let's do it absolutely another
• 2:05:32
  number one um you so you're you're obviously your marketing department right you actually here's
• 2:05:39
  here's what i'll say uh this one's just a success you don't have to call it in because
• 2:05:43
  although you don't know who any of these people are one person does stick out to you because you
• 2:05:49
  work very closely with the sales department the the real estate agents that go out to these properties
• 2:05:55
  normally and uh work to get these houses all set up and ready for sale and you recognize one of these
• 2:06:02
  individuals because she works very closely with your department that is fanny may herself
• 2:06:06
  one of the best sellers if not the best seller uh that you guys have at ddr and just like all
• 2:06:14
  the rest of them she is passed out okay um oh uh oh sleeping on the job boss isn't gonna like that
• 2:06:26
  what kind of chairs are they sort of sitting on yeah they're like slightly ornate but otherwise
• 2:06:32
  just like a wooden uh dining chair they don't work comfortable at all anyone who's sleeping in
• 2:06:38
  these for more than like a couple hours it's probably gonna have just really bad like cramp or
• 2:06:43
  something oof you know so and and she's sleeping so fizz is gonna um see her there is gonna uh climb
• 2:06:53
  into a lap and wake up fanny give her a slap like you know the job i'm gonna call that well
• 2:07:02
  we'll call that a impulsive action which falls under perpetrate so do be a do me a perpetrate rule
• 2:07:07
  see if you can wake up fanny actually almost also falls under office pranks too which is perfect
• 2:07:14
  three hey that's perfect awesome you slap fanny and she goes fizz word what are you doing here well
• 2:07:24
  i've come here with other people from my workplace because you weren't doing your job why are you
• 2:07:32
  sleeping and what are all these other squatters doing in this property the last thing i remember
• 2:07:37
  was coming here to get things ready to sell the house and then what happened after that and she
• 2:07:43
  looks around and and she you see her face turned towards uh dracula who's sitting there and i i
• 2:07:49
  would argue that with the the shout and the slap uh i think he's probably turned around at this point
• 2:07:55
  and she goes i remember now it was him and he looks at all of you and he says oh welcome to my castle
• 2:08:04
  please have a seat so i can tell you all the story of my financial woes i think i'll stay
• 2:08:13
  standing from the sleep chairs thank you very much whoa i didn't cast anything on the chairs i swear
• 2:08:21
  these guys all just well it was very rude they sort of just conked out after maybe 20 minutes of my
• 2:08:30
  tales well if if if that's the case could you make it more of like a a summary of said yeah well
• 2:08:38
  a real one a real one pager would be uh appreciate one pager oh you want like the bullet points uh
• 2:08:46
  yes give or take yeah just like the real top top points yeah yes of course um bought the castle
• 2:08:53
  and then i got really scammed the crap out of my body too then come and hence the mum needs
• 2:09:01
  and um i tried to fix this situation with skeletons that it was less than helpful and um
• 2:09:09
  it's not that that's evasion yeah that last one will always kind of do you in yeah it turns out
• 2:09:16
  the IRS is far more a formidable foe than than Helsing ever succeeded in being you've you've lost
• 2:09:25
  this property to your financial woes is that what we're is that what you're saying
• 2:09:31
  which is why it's come underneath our departments to sell oh so you're here with the real estate
• 2:09:39
  as well just like all of these people yes that is the unfortunate truth i lost the house it was
• 2:09:47
  seized by the bank oh i see um well uh perhaps there has been some kind of uh misunderstanding and
• 2:09:57
  this could be discussed with uh with the higher ups in our department uh in our company if you
• 2:10:04
  maybe uh wish to to pay them a visit um we could certainly arrange a meeting uh or sign some
• 2:10:12
  documentation or something if you think it will help i mean to be fair my lawyer is just
• 2:10:19
  frankenstein's monster and um he barely speaks english so the readings of his of the paperwork
• 2:10:26
  well it was um it was difficult to follow if you think that there is a way i could retain my castle
• 2:10:33
  if you if you wouldn't mind may we have a moment to discuss amongst ourselves
• 2:10:41
  uh about your very particular problem mr dracula unlike your outfit by the way it looks fantastic
• 2:10:49
  on me uh just i was just noticing you were all wearing it oh yeah we we love your style
• 2:10:57
  what you wasn't through choice it's very nice mine on the other hand was through all definite
• 2:11:02
  choice i don't speak good on you i will admit and yes of course please have your aside so and
• 2:11:10
  there's uh sort of uh kits into a work cuddle okay i love it work with yeah um right well
• 2:11:20
  obviously our our man here drac uh he carries this aura and renown of being a particularly
• 2:11:33
  famous uh person what if we were to adjust it so rather than selling the property
• 2:11:44
  uh we could have it as a rental and use the trustees that we would get from having
• 2:11:57
  people come and stay at drax pad that that is already go ahead millie but i think that that
• 2:12:06
  is a fair point well could we not add him as a feature so you know you get this castle and
• 2:12:12
  you get dracula living here he's gonna be here he's gonna host all your parties he will uh maybe
• 2:12:19
  get rid of those people that you don't like hanging around you wait i'm sure we could uh
• 2:12:24
  sort of drive the advertising for something like that uh uh into the yeah millie you've got something
• 2:12:32
  there too owning a property with dracula well i think i think you could also go down the route of
• 2:12:40
  making it more of like an air b and b sort of deal where like he always hosts and like you have to
• 2:12:46
  like it's like a subletting thing where like he gets a little bit of the chaching and then in return
• 2:12:53
  he gets to host the party you know do order is like mummies and skeletons and stuff to kind of do the
• 2:12:59
  cleaning and everything like that it's self-sufficient more sort of location maybe even wedding venue
• 2:13:06
  well uh i i hate to uh push back on on all of your ideas which i i think that that this is strong
• 2:13:13
  ideas uh all around uh in this this huddle it's been i most appreciate that but uh let's not forget
• 2:13:19
  the uh the core values of ddr uh and uh the customer always comes first that that is
• 2:13:27
  that is fair that is a fair point uh and uh we were tasked by vol de mortgage that you know we need
• 2:13:35
  to remove the squatters so i was my where my head was at was uh and this is and this is just my idea
• 2:13:43
  you know i'm just gonna stick it in your thinkwalk if it doesn't sizzle that's fine um but
• 2:13:50
  uh what if we were to uh as we discussed before uh to um let our friend here um
• 2:13:59
  leave the the building on the pretense of going to sign uh documents uh could even sign a little
• 2:14:08
  something here that's some sort of guarantee that we will not reclaim the property in his
• 2:14:13
  absence or whatever put it in the void filing cabinet right there disappears gone uh and then
• 2:14:18
  as soon as he's outside uh then problem gone i mean i think that works too uh i i i do i do agree
• 2:14:26
  that i don't think vol de mortgage is going to be as uh thrilled and and i know for a fact that we
• 2:14:33
  need to make sure that we get this job done right and i don't think i don't think our company's gonna
• 2:14:38
  want to split the funds with well dracula and tax evasion is a crime so we would be you know aiding
• 2:14:45
  in letting a criminal exactly and and and i can't go away to jail with this beautiful face i mean
• 2:14:51
  i'm i'm a few years from retirement i really don't want to get involved in that oh you you you make
• 2:14:59
  a good point but i like his style and there is something potentially there about being able
• 2:15:08
  to use his name to up the price of the property like a celebrity kind of uh absolutely cool yeah
• 2:15:17
  i think you could also do that without dracula himself being there oh wait what if we say
• 2:15:24
  like something like hey like you can be near the mansion or the castle it but you just can't be in
• 2:15:30
  it what if they was part of the mansion stuff they were saying if if dracula was dracula was part of
• 2:15:39
  the death of his own castle or or probably out of that hear hear me out here maybe we we do kind of
• 2:15:50
  something that that helps everyone obviously dracula ain't gonna get to keep the castle so what if we
• 2:15:56
  do instead is what we we we try and get dracula out of the castle and then what we say is hey like
• 2:16:02
  you can't go back in the castle because this is going to be somebody else's property but what he
• 2:16:07
  could do is then set up his own like little hay ride or something outside of the castle and then
• 2:16:13
  it becomes like his own little like hikin trail or like dracula's path you know what i mean where
• 2:16:19
  it's like its own whole thing where like he can even do tours around the castle that don't interrupt
• 2:16:24
  into the people that are there and we don't have to talk about the fact that dracula now has his own
• 2:16:29
  little side business so it's getting his own little money maker kind of going he's not in the place we
• 2:16:36
  sell the the general area and he's not going to be doing hay rides until you know like after the
• 2:16:42
  next couple of days after the little you know house party i'm and that is certainly out of the box
• 2:16:50
  thinking and uh that really is uh uh has a lot of moving parts uh it's it's a best of both words
• 2:16:56
  scenario i say i see no downside i truly think that that could work uh mild prie here dear you think
• 2:17:04
  millie what do you think millie i don't know i mean i do think him staying here would probably be
• 2:17:13
  easiest for everyone involved because i think turfing him out is going to be quite hard but also
• 2:17:17
  i was thinking technically we were told to make sure that this property is ready for a party tonight
• 2:17:24
  that it's cleaned that there's no traps there's no squatters and it's redecorated so what if we
• 2:17:31
  if we enlist dracula into helping us then he doesn't become a squatter he can help us set a
• 2:17:38
  door lock he can help us door the most amazing best party and uh i don't want to hear but maybe
• 2:17:47
  be like all right now you work with us like bulb like bulb like bulbs ideas ideas
• 2:17:54
  happening in in there all fizzing up in in in me head like i'm not getting your name yeah that's
• 2:18:01
  good yeah yeah uh what if we since we're going to be organising a party for this evening anyway
• 2:18:11
  like you said uh millie getting dracula on board to help us with the shindig but what if we uh
• 2:18:21
  were to put ticket sales with the name of dracula this fancy shindig uh in this fantastic castle i
• 2:18:31
  could work around some sort of social uh um content that we could sort of put out get people excited
• 2:18:42
  come down pay a price get a photo of some kind with uh old old uh track there and uh maybe some of
• 2:18:54
  those proceeds could go to them to buy the property okay okay i'm feeling i'm feeling some uh some
• 2:19:02
  synergy developing um maybe we could yeah it could be dracula's dracula's farewell party
• 2:19:11
  uh farewell tour yeah everyone needs one i like it then i'm off in style maybe tele cups uh
• 2:19:24
  i think agin is a crime i i have to consider considering he did just straight up flat out
• 2:19:29
  just admit to that i feel like it hey wait wasn't that being recorded on your phone i i didn't have
• 2:19:36
  that particular moment but oh that's okay this learning learning learning and deepening core
• 2:19:43
  competencies so you guys hear dracula kind of call out from behind you guys he says so have you
• 2:19:48
  done it have you found the solution to my uh current predicament uh we we might have a
• 2:19:56
  certain proposal um i'm all here oh well yes uh and thanks and i also have the rest of my body
• 2:20:09
  as well but it's later here no there well uh and um this is going to look to to the manager uh uh and
• 2:20:21
  uh do you want to uh you know i think you guys both speak the same language boring i mean i mean uh
• 2:20:32
  then what uh no let's we let's circle back to that uh i'll touch base and reach out uh uh okay what
• 2:20:42
  am i doing uh i guess letting them know well i guess we can all talk tell them but i thought you
• 2:20:49
  know give you the opportunity to oh i tried to so we're going with it we're going with the party
• 2:20:55
  plan yeah yeah yeah i'm gonna take it some stuff you're fair yeah at all yeah yeah okay okay uh hey
• 2:21:01
  right hey ride if you can work it though i will make sure to circle back to that holister holister
• 2:21:11
  nods his head expectantly waiting for the hey ride to make its way in there well that's one way to
• 2:21:18
  make hey he must have stood selfish he goes over uh okay uh so uh mr drack killer uh sir um
• 2:21:27
  okay uh so we uh so we have a proposal uh so obviously we are uh representatives of the
• 2:21:39
  realtor uh so therefore uh this uh your castle is of course going on the market and we need to make
• 2:21:46
  it ready for market however uh also um it was uh under uh the instruction of our um of our company
• 2:21:56
  that there will be a party uh tonight uh so we thought why not make you the make you the uh
• 2:22:07
  the the how'd you pull the cool the the the lightning rod the uh catalyst the uh focal point if you
• 2:22:15
  will the um the main event the the thank you yes the star uh of the event drack killers party
• 2:22:24
  drack killers farewell party because of course of course you understand that obviously you cannot
• 2:22:31
  stay living here uh you are a wanted felon uh and uh this is uh no longer your property i'm sure you
• 2:22:38
  understand that uh and um uh so why not instead of going down the line of uh having a robust
• 2:22:45
  discussion where we get authorities involved why not turn it into the event go out with a
• 2:22:52
  bang you know like really think outside the box a hay ride could be involved for for example um yeah
• 2:23:03
  what what we'd like to do mr drack you lay down exactly like mel said we want to make you
• 2:23:10
  the star and since you'd be the star attraction people coming to see you this wonderful property
• 2:23:18
  maybe there could be some sort of uh financial uh security that you might be able to get from
• 2:23:28
  certain ticket sales that we could buy if i get the social strategy right
• 2:23:33
  thank you yes i forgot about the ticket sales yes exactly if all going well and and this is as big
• 2:23:39
  of a shinding as we're going to try and make it for you maybe you would have earned the funds to buy
• 2:23:44
  the property back outright yeah this could be the first of its kind of disruptive innovation you know
• 2:23:50
  like really uh bleeding edge of technology of uh innovation of realty because ddr you know we put
• 2:24:00
  the monster in moving that that is that is our one of our core values yeah it's the jingle we put
• 2:24:06
  the monster in realty moving but yeah i love that that's amazing so what you're saying is that we
• 2:24:16
  have a nice big party here at the castle tonight and we use it as sort of a um what is it the kids
• 2:24:24
  are always calling it a a sort of go fund me to help reinstate my ownership of the castle from the
• 2:24:32
  bank perhaps pay off all the property taxes i owe yeah uh yeah if you like yeah uh yes hello that's
• 2:24:41
  that's one way pun it yeah yeah if a fundraiser or you know you could also view it as a kind of um
• 2:24:50
  send off they send off yeah if you all have the money so that you can then start your get
• 2:24:58
  start another castle somewhere else it all depends on how how much money we make from the event
• 2:25:05
  if it all comes through i mean that's your money to do with as you you you will right yeah fizzle
• 2:25:12
  get a virus uh is that what they say you're gonna make it have a virus yeah i'll i'll make it go
• 2:25:19
  viral on social yeah like that yeah um yeah have me i'm gonna have moral uh roll me a delegate check
• 2:25:29
  okay doki ah what'd you get to name what's wrong why every role has been fine but it's
• 2:25:42
  nothing to do with delegate as soon as this delegate you know you have one job well at least
• 2:25:49
  you're you're sticking to your guns i mean you are it is my core competency yeah i was gonna say
• 2:25:55
  if like your main thing so it makes sense i suppose i might have to use a word of power here as well i
• 2:26:00
  think to turn the tide of what's going here i think i have got one that actually is suitable
• 2:26:06
  for this situation so we will see words of power all right we're gonna cast a a spell i see that it
• 2:26:12
  is a a two which definitely would be off um real quick um would you like to choose a a condition
• 2:26:20
  to take on uh yes uh krabi krabi yep that's totally fair i think that's fitting for the situation
• 2:26:28
  you've pitched a a brilliant idea and for some reason dracula it just kind of looks at you and
• 2:26:32
  he goes well all done this kind of feels like i'm getting kicked out which is exactly what i'm trying
• 2:26:39
  to avoid and then i said something about casting uh well look think of it as okay maybe temporarily
• 2:26:47
  but in the long term the thing that will empower you that everyone will go away picturing is
• 2:26:54
  dracula and then the greenish sort of tinge starts coalescing around mud again he says swag
• 2:27:07
  and so like what appearing is just like there's little action figures and there's mugs with
• 2:27:13
  dracula on it it's like summoning like from the ground like all these roots start taking shape
• 2:27:18
  into like yeah like different sort of bits of merch that's so awesome okay hold on now that
• 2:27:26
  hold on this is interesting tell me about this this is good well uh marketing's not really my
• 2:27:33
  area so i'm gonna have to defer to my colleague here uh that's uh that is uh if you wouldn't mind
• 2:27:40
  well what we could do dracula by alchum uh look at your beautiful visage you've got style you've
• 2:27:52
  got pizzazz i'm wearing it right now because i just can't help myself you look fantastic
• 2:27:58
  people want to be around you people want to be you absolutely we can make this a viral success
• 2:28:07
  and you know if if things uh go off as as well as uh i think with uh let me let me just have a look
• 2:28:18
  at my figures here look at uh within the stock markets and and uh uh how well we can get you to
• 2:28:26
  to rise and he's gonna also uh sort of uh use a uh a spell here with his words of power as he's
• 2:28:35
  um scrolling through on his tablet he's gonna borrow that uh word that merle has used and uh
• 2:28:44
  stock market swag
• 2:28:51
  to suggest the aura of the um the name that we have here with um dracula and how high we can
• 2:29:01
  get that to rock it up for his as he's put it go fund me campaign in this drag attack event okay very
• 2:29:11
  cool you've got you've got the marketing already running um i'm like a holographic looking sort of
• 2:29:17
  like projection screen pops up and you just see like an arrow you know there's like the the grid
• 2:29:22
  and there's like a little arrow that just starts going up and up and the you know it has a couple
• 2:29:27
  of like minor dips here and there but it just continues to go up um with this idea behind
• 2:29:33
  the this big party uh featuring dracula but then also like the following merch that would kind of
• 2:29:39
  stem from it as well um and his eyes just kind of bug out a little bit you know you practically
• 2:29:44
  it's almost like a cartoon where you almost see like chiching as like dollar signs pop up
• 2:29:49
  over his eyes and he goes okay i like where this is going i look just like i did in my high days
• 2:29:57
  do you really think there's that many dracula fans still out there that would be all over this stuff
• 2:30:03
  well let me put it this way to you drag me out chum he lifts up his tablet and um he's been uh
• 2:30:14
  sort of live streaming uh very shortly um as these figures have been going up say hello to the world
• 2:30:24
  dracula oh my gosh it's on the camera this is the new founder social media stuff the kids are all
• 2:30:32
  hello everybody hello mum and dad just kidding they are dead hello everybody else in the world
• 2:30:41
  yeah we could have a party with your man drac what is this idea we've got a everybody look at this
• 2:30:49
  and he holds up a little action figure of himself and he says look you can have a little dracula
• 2:30:54
  the action figure you can fly around and terrorize the villages of your little barbies and army
• 2:31:01
  soldiers with it come down to dracula's castle tonight we'll be having a big fancy go fund me party
• 2:31:09
  that there ain't no party like a drac club party so you guys uh have kind of gotten i think you've
• 2:31:17
  gotten dracula pretty on board with this idea um with the possibility that you might be able to
• 2:31:23
  either save him or i don't know he's he's pretty open to the idea um i think you might have missed
• 2:31:30
  the bit about the the corn the hayride but um you know you might be able to get him back on it
• 2:31:36
  you might be able to get him back on it we'll see uh based on how things pan out
• 2:31:40
  with that being said uh with dracula kind of at your back uh what are you guys planning on
• 2:31:48
  doing with the mansion as it is all the things that you've experienced so far uh any particular
• 2:31:53
  kind of final to do before you guys uh or in order to get this place ready for tonight and i'm uh
• 2:32:02
  this is going to use a another spell spell all out hey now's the time yeah uh he's um uh
• 2:32:12
  looking at um the property he's looking at the potential um fans that would be coming down to
• 2:32:23
  this event and he's like oh i can imagine all of your your fans these fanboys these golf girls all
• 2:32:31
  wanting to come and get a piece of this action this evening um and i want this place to have the most
• 2:32:40
  explosive fantastical aura and he uses his uh word of power and uh in doing this he's he's sort
• 2:32:53
  of looking to i can see uh uh oh um things in black will will have uh uh the seating this
• 2:33:03
  velvety red will will um will have a beautiful carpet that leads up these stairs and he's
• 2:33:11
  he's imagining how to emphasize um Dracula's appeal is yeah yes his style and um make it work
• 2:33:23
  for the particular people that he envisages envisages coming to this event so he's gonna draw
• 2:33:29
  all of that out to make it as epic and as stylish gothic as possible awesome i think that
• 2:33:41
  by by use of this you have significantly uh sped up that time to kind of redirect or redecorate
• 2:33:48
  things based on sort of this this artistic creations that you've put together drawings and even like
• 2:33:57
  you use like illusion magic to kind of like look this is what i'm trying to go for and then people
• 2:34:02
  are able to bring in the necessary resources to quickly get that up and so again you speed forward
• 2:34:09
  a lot of the redecoration time does anybody else have anything they would like to ensure
• 2:34:14
  they get done before this party tonight you have i think we said it was about noon one when you guys
• 2:34:20
  came up to the top of this area we're probably looking at three to four hours before this party
• 2:34:25
  kicks off so i think before fizzwood does that millie will use her power word yes and okay including
• 2:34:33
  the um the dance hall area we found under this okay perfect yes using agasta definitely get
• 2:34:40
  that smell out because that's that's definitely going to be a big thing too is that just stems
• 2:34:44
  around in the walls yes absolutely beautiful okay i would say that uh holister is going to use a word
• 2:34:52
  of power and create the spell dream house or basically on the outside all of like the moat
• 2:35:00
  and everything like that like starts to clean itself up so like it looks like a very nice moat
• 2:35:05
  and like the like just the flora and fauna outside starts to look a little neater and nicer and more
• 2:35:12
  well-trend fantastic absolutely that exterior is the first thing everybody's going to see when
• 2:35:17
  they stop by so it's important to make sure that it looks spick and spam so fantastic anything from
• 2:35:24
  from merle merle is going to be uh he's going to be liaising between the different teams uh to make
• 2:35:30
  sure there's synergy and that we're all moving in the same direction because there's a lot of moving
• 2:35:34
  parts in this plan maybe implore um dracula to also um to also muck in and help as well absolutely
• 2:35:44
  and i think to a certain extent you know i think he has to get past a little bit of that um a famous
• 2:35:52
  individual mentality you could say uh to get himself to the framework that i need to be a part
• 2:35:58
  of all of this cleaning as well and so it is very important that you're able to get him into that
