Ep 13 - Embers Drift to Stonewharf · The Frostworn Oath

0:01
Before we jump back into the frozen chaos of the Frost One
0:03
Oath, we want to thank one of our sponsors, W Energy.
0:06
Debbie was created by a guy named Anthony who tried a big
0:09
name energy drink and thought, yeah, we could do better than
0:12
that. So we set out to make an energy
0:13
drink that's jitter free, crash free, and made without sugar,
0:16
artificial dyes, or any of that nonsense.
0:18
And they've got a ton of awesome flavors too, everything from
0:21
Retro rainbow Trobay Smores and sweet and sour Blue razz to some
0:25
anime inspired ones like Bleeding Orange based off of
0:28
Chainsaw Man, Shadow Monarch Surge based off of Solo
0:31
Leveling, and even a free rid inspired flavor.

1:18
The next one we're going to try. I cannot wait.
1:20
I've already submitted the order.
1:26
From broken time, from shattered faith, from dumb decisions and
1:34
worst ice. Rolls.
1:37
We are the Frostwire. Can we fucking rig?
1:45
Rig Nothing. Gather round and fill your cups,
1:50
I'll tell you what be fell. A cave of ice, a goblin horde
1:55
and friends who fought like hell.
1:57
The steel rang loud, the blood rang cold vehicle shook the
2:00
stone, and when the dust had settled down, not all came
2:05
walking home. The high folks swung with fury
2:09
while Lord she LED the fray while they were struck with
2:13
cunning hands and kept it beasts at they old odds recall down
2:17
holy flame. Brother Hay stood near And every
2:21
goblin learned that night exactly why we're fear the
2:25
Chieftain beast O battered sword refused to meet his end.
2:32
He turned his back and fled the fight.
2:34
No honor did he spend. We cursed his name, We gave him
2:38
chase, But Dirk mistook his trail.
2:40
And that's the moment marked me well when fortune chose to fail.
2:51
It's been aligned with pistol smoke and reckless man.
2:54
You dance with that just fine, for words can cut more deep than
2:57
blade, than fright can cost you do.
3:00
He spoke of that poor goblins mind.
3:03
And if we're standing, so raise up, up and drink it down.
3:07
For those we've lost. A long road.
3:09
For every lap that turn to grief.
3:11
For every tale that's left untold. 1 Poor choice.
3:14
One careless breath, One just too far.
3:16
One step. kool-aid. And now we sing our valley home
3:20
at his end by mocking faith. Must be loose.
3:23
With no warning given. It struck him through the heart.
3:29
No final bows, no clever line. The silence cold and dark, His
3:34
pistol still this story cut. The Cave itself went still, and
3:38
every soul saw its war. They feel that moment, still and
3:45
all. Skype vanished.
3:47
Clean lock. Smoke upon the air.
3:49
No trace, no sign, no backward glance.
3:51
Just absent. Stand in there.
3:53
We stood among the fallen. Then the victory turned to ash.
3:57
Forward is 1. When one is locked in.
4:00
But a heart beats flash. So raise a cup and drink it
4:05
slow. And my Lord, you choose this
4:07
feet for death don't care for just for pride.
4:10
It finds a bold. It finds the weak.
4:12
One bold choice. One reckless tongue, one
4:14
laughter. Fate could not forgive.
4:16
And now we drink to Valley. Oh and cause the way we still
4:20
must live. God damn you Rook, this is all
4:25
your fault. What's up guys?
4:42
Back at it again on the episode. I like the energy.
4:47
Hey, hey, quick question. Are you rolling who I think
4:50
you're rolling for? Possibly.
4:52
Don't allude. Rook went down, people were
4:56
being hurt. Lot of lot of fuck around and
4:59
find out. Let's go around the table.
5:01
Introduce your peoples. Hi I'm CJ I play father ostrich.
5:07
Fun fact about Father Ostrich this week is if you've noticed
5:11
he knows a lot of fire spells and the reason behind that is
5:14
because whenever he casts the spells, the warmth from the
5:16
spells reminds him of Barbara. That's dirty.
5:21
No it's not. It's wholesome.
5:22
Get your mind out of the gutter. You said he had a bunch of that
5:26
ointment. You said he had a bunch of that
5:28
ointment. Yeah, I mean, he'd still have to
5:30
take it to hug her and guess her.
5:32
And what else? Hug her and guess her.
5:34
Father Hauser was a gentleman. Yeah.
5:37
What about this is your third episode with us?
5:40
Yes. Yes it is, but for tonight I
5:44
feel truly in character. You turn it into crop.
5:52
Why'd you point it out? Yeah, No, we, I I'm Miguel and I
5:56
play Brother Hayes. You know, frat boy cleric.
6:01
Follow up, Seratin. My fun fact is he is a
6:05
connoisseur of soups, but his favorite kinds of soup are the
6:08
continuous soups. And he heavily criticizes his
6:11
continuous soup, his favorite being a 60 year old continuous
6:15
soup that he has not had a better one since then.
6:18
Sounds delicious. I've seen those big balls, I've
6:20
always wanted to try one. I have not had one, they just
6:22
look good. I haven't either, I'm just a fat
6:26
fuck anyway. Landon.
6:32
Wow, look at that. Landon player of Dara.
6:35
Fun fact about Dara is she secretly has an addiction to
6:40
alcohol. Although you'll never see her
6:42
drink alcohol, she'd be drinking like a fish.
6:45
I never knew that. It's true.
6:47
All right, Senor Thai. So it's me, Toy Fest, the
6:53
glorious player of Vallejo. And my fun fact is, I just woke
6:57
up, but I don't know where I am. There's more sun than what I
7:01
remember, there's more grass than I remember.
7:07
And as I look around, I can see a figure in the distance and
7:13
with it comes to familiar voice. A voice I haven't heard since I
7:17
was maybe 10 years old. And finally it comes to me where
7:21
I am. I noticed the vast open planes.
7:26
I see the dust cleaned from my clothes.
7:30
I can breathe again, but I'm still trying to take steps back.
7:36
And there's familiar sound that stops me, one of a small piece
7:41
of lead ripping through the air. A smile nod to myself and shake
7:49
my head. And as I start walking forward,
7:58
there's a breeze that sweeps over the blinds, and with it
8:04
goes my hat. And as it goes off into the
8:09
distance behind me, I say something I know that they'll
8:13
never hear. A farewell sorts.
8:18
I smile at the figure that's finally come into view, seeing
8:21
my dad again. And all I can think is it was an
8:27
Otter. And back in that cave where my
8:33
body lies still, there's a sort of gust that happens.
8:38
It's just the hat from my face, and all that's looking up are
8:43
pale eyes and a smile trailing blood almost.
8:48
I thought of something funny in my last moments, but I didn't
8:52
have the breath to say it. And that's my fun fact.
9:03
I I didn't expect you to take it that direction.
9:12
So your final vision of what you understand and see of this
9:19
wholesome warmth within you. In this vision, there is one
9:24
final moment shared with your father, although he is at a bit
9:27
of a distance, his visage, his face, it.
9:32
You know what your father looked like, but it's just slightly
9:35
off. And with that, as you look back
9:38
and forth between him and your mother, you can see tears well
9:42
up in her eyes. There's an expression of
9:45
happiness in seeing you, but it also is overcome with a sense of
9:50
sadness. Maybe.
9:51
Maybe because you're here and you're here too soon.
9:54
And as you go back to your father, you notice that he looks
9:57
away from you. And it's not out of hatred, more
10:02
so pained. Not even disappointment, but
10:08
maybe disappointment within himself.
10:10
You start to realize that blood starts to trail through the
10:13
grass of this beautiful area, and then it begins to flood up
10:20
and well over. And then all you see is Rhett
10:26
engulfing and taking you in. And then darkness.
10:36
So you're all in The Cave, everything's going crazy,
10:40
everything's amiss. It has started to calm down.
10:43
Everyone's catching their breath and taking in the sights, just
10:46
looking around, trying to figure out who's what.
10:48
Where is everyone? It's still dark with little bits
10:51
of Lantern light thanks to Brother Hayes, as well as a
10:55
dimming hot coals of an old campfire and Father Austrich's
10:59
torch. All right, Father Austrich,
11:01
let's take it off with you. What are you doing?
11:03
You see? You see all this commotion?
11:05
As far as you can tell, there are no more combatants in the
11:07
near area. Father Ashrick will make his way
11:10
over to where Vallejo is, just kind of look at him and realize
11:15
what's happened, just kind of reach down and close his eyes.
11:20
All right, you of course know a bit about what he had on him.
11:24
His hats off to the side onto the ground behind him slightly.
11:28
He still has a dagger or two in his bandolier and he's wearing
11:32
that coat. Is normal bounty hunter
11:34
travelling garments? Father Osher just going to take
11:37
the hat and the coat. Father Oser takes the hat and
11:40
the coat. Do you wear the coat?
11:42
Not yet. OK.
11:43
So you take the. Code I put the coat in my sack
11:45
and like kind of tie the hat to where it like you know those.
11:49
Yeah, that has the thing that goes around the chin and it just
11:52
hangs off the back. Yeah.
11:54
Yeah, like one of those. OK, I got you all right, Brother
11:57
Hayes. Brother Hayes looks around at
11:59
the bodies, knowing that's my job.
12:04
He looks around. He goes.
12:06
Does anyone have a shovel? We should at least give them a
12:11
proper burial. But first let's run into the
12:16
pockets and he'll go to, well, who?
12:20
Who, who died? They lost his name, the one with
12:23
the dagger. Oh, you mean Rook?
12:25
Yeah, I'm gonna go to his court first, I thought.
12:29
That literally sounded like a Tiger Grill.
12:31
I poked. So you you go jauntily walking
12:37
up to the body of Rook, and what do you?
12:41
Do I start patting him down for valuables?
12:44
You start patting him down, and as you do so, he's suddenly he
12:47
just kind of comes to what? What do you do?
12:52
Hi, who are? You can I can I roll the
12:55
document out just out of panic? Yes.
13:00
Sir, can I say that while he's doing this, Father Rush, because
13:04
like making one of those like the the slides that you carry
13:07
people on. Yes, give me a survival check.
13:13
I just rolled a hit right? I'm thinking nine hits does it a
13:16
what 9? He's on the ground, you have an
13:19
advantage. Oh, let me roll again then.
13:20
That'd be 16 that. Hits.
13:24
All right, I'm just knocking him out again.
13:27
He's just I'm not, I'm not killing him.
13:30
I'm just knocking him out, OK? All right, just just just trying
13:34
to knock him out on our damage. Yeah.
13:36
OK. So just just one damage?
13:38
I don't have a proficiency. Whoa, what did he do?
13:44
And. You clack him on the jaw and he
13:46
is out again. To be fair, you guys said you
13:50
did not like him, right? No, he just turns around.
13:54
Brother Hayes looks, looks, looks at the grip.
13:57
You look to Griff, You look to Father Awesome.
13:59
You look over towards Dara, all incredibly weak.
14:03
No, mate, he's a thief. OK, so he's up for grabs and he
14:06
goes back to patting down his pockets.
14:09
Give me, give me a, give me a perception or invested, you
14:12
know, whatever. I'll go Perception plus 516
14:19
again. OK, so you do find a pouch.
14:29
Feels like there's some gold in there or some coin of some sort.
14:33
And also on him, all he has left that you see at this moment is
14:37
that Dirk that was very close by his body.
14:40
No, I'll just pick it all up and put in his backpack.
14:45
Fair enough. Oh wait, the dagger.
14:48
He was mentioning A dagger that came in the Dirk.
14:52
Oh, the Dirk. OK, my bad, I did not know.
14:55
But he goes and he turns back around after loading him.
15:00
Which one of you is Father Ostrich again?
15:03
It's me, brother. OK.
15:05
OK. Sorry, just a little bit sorry.
15:08
Sorry to interrupt, I do want to say one thing that I think is
15:10
hilarious, but it totally goes well with character because flat
15:14
out it was acknowledged that he does not know who Father Ostrich
15:17
was. He just knows of him.
15:19
He just. He just hasn't heard of him.
15:21
But you know him and know him visually, by voice, name,
15:24
everything. You've probably seen him around.
15:26
He just does. He's only heard of you, but he's
15:28
only heard of an old man. And that's fine, but I also like
15:32
to just think that Brother Hayes is just such a fucking Stoner
15:34
that he just doesn't remember meeting the old man.
15:36
Yeah, he's just never talked to him personally know how to
15:38
reason to talk to him. So he doesn't know who.
15:40
He just a father officer gets a 100.
15:42
Percent stole the beer. Yeah, he stole.
15:44
He steals like the like the kegs of beers, but like the only the
15:48
only evidence he has a father off trick is like the aftermath
15:51
because like Jesus. Traces.
15:53
Him because he's usually out, you know, buying his stuff while
15:56
parties are usually happening because, you know, it's usually
15:58
not the busiest time because everyone's already got their
16:00
stuff. So when he on his way back,
16:02
usually in the morning after smoking a bit, he usually comes
16:05
to a whole mess of sand. Dayra, when we come to you.
16:10
So you've seen everything that's taking place.
16:13
You you see Father Austria, it looks like he's getting to work,
16:16
starting to craft some type of drag sled, something of that
16:19
nature with that. Also, you did witness Brother
16:22
Hayes walk up to Rook and then all the sudden it oh hey, it
16:27
appears Rook isn't dead. And then with your approval and
16:31
knocks him back unconscious and starts rummaging through his
16:34
shit. Well, was the.
16:35
Last thing I got and I remember the pouch, the knife.
16:38
The dirt. That's that it.
16:39
Just a pouch on the dirt. OK.
16:42
And as of right now, there are no enemies about.
16:45
OK, what are you doing? Is there a further depth of The
16:48
Cave that we haven't explored? Absolutely.
16:50
OK, I'm going to go explore. Give me a perception check.
16:54
I don't. Even have my advice.
16:57
I have dice. Yeah, I have dice right here.
17:00
Rookie what? Rookie don't.
17:05
Damn it, I have one spell slot. 13.
17:09
So as you start to go a little further into this opening within
17:16
The Cave towards where this leader took off running injured.
17:22
He's still alive, you know that, right?
17:25
The leader. He ran away.
17:27
He ran the way you were. Kill him.
17:28
There might be more over there. So you move further down into
17:36
this cave opening and it's very dark.
17:39
It's very dark. You begin to lose almost
17:41
complete and utter sight as you do so.
17:45
You almost kind of stumble, you hurt your hand with a loud thunk
17:52
as you just kind of move about and slam into the side of some
17:59
wooden cylinders. And when this happens
18:02
immediately you have that scent. You know that smell, that wet
18:07
fur nasty kind of aroma of out in the wild.
18:13
And it's followed with a a deep. That was scary.
18:22
Did it meow perchance? Yeah, what's?
18:27
His name, Volscar, is that you? No response.
18:33
Volscar Volscar, is that you? As you begin just leaning
18:38
towards the cage and going Volscar Volscar, roll me a deck
18:44
save. 18. You leap back just in time as
18:51
long 4 inch claws come out and rake across you like gashes of
18:55
blood tearing at your at your cloth and skin.
18:58
Oh damn it, I love this shirt. I'm going to, I'm going to go.
19:06
Oh, Oh my gosh, that was really close.
19:09
Well, I think I found myself a next pet.
19:12
As your eyes do begin to adjust slightly, you can make out that
19:17
this is a wooden styled enforced cage.
19:23
It appears to be there's several along this little spot right
19:27
here. All right, I'm going to pull my
19:30
whistle out and blow my whistle and try and calm the the Kitty,
19:36
the titty. I'm going to calm the titty
19:38
down. That's what I'm going to do all.
19:41
Right, give me a roll with advantage because of the
19:44
whistle. 15. So the cage, you know it, it's
19:52
stops shaking per SE. You don't even know what this
19:56
thing looks like. And as you do this, it just you
19:59
know it. It just seems like you've gotten
20:01
its attention as more it's taken an interest into you as as
20:05
opposed to just kill it if it gets close.
20:08
That's what you got right now. Oh.
20:10
Fuck going to I'm going to reach my hand out and try it and pet
20:14
it. It's going to bite my fucking
20:17
hour mouth. OK, give.
20:20
Me. Wait, I don't know if I want to
20:22
do that because you just went OK.
20:24
No, I was just trying to remember.
20:25
I think you're at 2 HP, right? Yeah.
20:26
You're in love. Fuck it.
20:30
All right. Dare.
20:31
You're like, I'm going to fucking fight God. 2 HP.
20:35
And this gun I found. So you reach your hand out.
20:41
Do you go in within the bars? Yes, I'm so fucked.
20:45
My AC is 14 by the way. You reach your hand in the bars,
20:48
and as you do so, it's just quiet.
20:52
Your hand completely disappears in darkness because, I mean, you
20:56
could see a foot in front of you maybe.
20:58
And once you go past those bars, it's just, hello, is anybody
21:03
there? Is it me you're looking for?
21:05
I can see it in your. At that moment you feel nothing
21:10
but immediately slamming to the side of the cage from within.
21:15
Next to your arm is 2 sets of paws on both sides up against
21:20
the bars and it starts to almost like grab them and then these
21:23
yellow eyes push against the cage.
21:27
Oh my God, you're so cute. I just want to cuddle you and
21:31
pet you because you're, you're a nice little Kitty.
21:34
Nice little titty. Yeah, give me one more animal
21:37
check. 18. Baller fuck yeah so as it's
21:43
gripping on the side of the cage it let's go and then just pushes
21:47
its head up against the bars and like a make my head feel good
21:52
I'm. Going to start scratching behind
21:54
its ears. And begin to pet the furred
21:56
beasts. It's let's out almost a purring
22:00
sound and then the whole thing's just vibrating and there we are.
22:05
Let's go. I found my new favorite animal.
22:07
I'll have to think of a name for you that might take me some
22:09
time. Not too bright.
22:11
So you see, you walk away from the cage and leave it in there.
22:15
No, I'm going to let it out all. Right, go ahead.
22:18
Let me, let me where's this lock at?
22:20
What type of is it A? Is it kind of a A latch style or
22:25
C So there's no lock? C.
22:27
OK, I'm going to open the door. You open the door and once you
22:31
do this, this furred mass immediately leaps out and then
22:36
disappears into the darkness. You can't see as soon as it's as
22:40
soon as like I said, as soon as it's about a foot away from you,
22:43
you you're blind and but you can still just kind of you sense its
22:48
presence near you. It's.
22:50
Going to go get revenge, kill the rest of the guys for us.
22:53
I'm just calling it right now. All right, what do you do here?
22:55
You go. Bye, Kitty.
22:56
I'll see you in a minute. I'm going to go back to them.
23:00
All right, Go back to the guys. So you walk your way back,
23:04
heading towards everyone else. Father Ostrich looks very peeved
23:07
with you. What do I do?
23:11
What you love. The old.
23:15
Man disappointment describe. Describe the head shake yellow,
23:18
mate yellow. He shook his head side to side
23:20
in a no motion. Yellow mate, you don't know, you
23:25
only live once. Valeo only lived once.
23:30
Yeah, well, yeah, exactly. I mean, he lived well.
23:36
He had eight wives, so you know. 7.
23:39
My bad, sorry. Jesus.
23:41
It was. It was a Griff heaven.
23:43
He had seven wives, so he lived. He lived quite well.
23:47
Griff's just holding his abdomen.
23:51
I got you dead. I'm.
23:53
Going to hand him a healing potion.
23:55
You had healing. Potion.
23:55
Yeah, two of them. Holy fuck I forgot.
23:58
Whenever I was going to my character sheet, I was like, Oh
24:00
yeah, I have healing. Dude, I don't think.
24:02
I. Still have one?
24:04
Yeah. So that's three total.
24:06
That's nice. Oh, you guys could say Brooke.
24:08
Fuck Rook. What the fuck knocked out
24:10
you're? Supposed to do that.
24:11
So Rook isn't dead. No, he's knocked out.
24:14
I just knocked him back out. He's unconscious.
24:16
He's unconscious being robbed. Oh, he's already been robbed.
24:19
All right, so. And I have the and I have the
24:21
dagger. So we're obviously not taking
24:23
them with us. Father Officer is going to look
24:25
over to Brother Hayes and be like.
24:27
Brother Hayes, get some of that meat that's on the fire.
24:29
And put it next to him. Meat, it's on the fire.
24:33
OK, I guess he just. Dressed so he has something to
24:36
eat when he wakes up. I guess how nice of you to think
24:39
of that. We don't, we don't know what it
24:41
is all. Right, so you grab the meat off
24:44
the fire. I guess.
24:46
All right, so you grab the meat off the fire and you go, and you
24:48
lay it next to unconscious Rook. And that's the moment where you
24:53
realize that there's some hand bones, humanoid hand bones,
24:57
attached to that meat on the fire.
24:58
And you lay down next to him. Oh, oh come on man, not cool.
25:06
What I think this is human remains.
25:09
I didn't know that. Fuck you, I just saw meat.
25:13
He like he gets upset. Smells so good.
25:21
Human meat. Smells great.
25:24
Yeah, if you like human meat. Oh no, I don't want human meat.
25:28
You got any water? I'm going outside of the snow.
25:31
Oh. My God father, I was trying.
25:38
You tried to get me to eat it. Can I No disguise?
25:44
Can Brother Hayes leave The Cave and he's going to go use the
25:47
snow outside to clean his hands? Yes.
25:50
So you walk outside. You walk outside and start.
25:55
Just rummaging, yeah. Rummaging with the snow,
25:58
cleaning myself all. Right, Father Austin, what do
26:00
you? Do I'm going to move the Leo's
26:02
body onto the little sled thing that I made.
26:05
Just kind of drag him outside, find a good spot to bury him.
26:09
Griff and actually Orici, they grab hold and start helping you
26:14
and. Is there a lake or a pond
26:17
nearby? Not that you're familiar with.
26:21
I mean, the region you're familiar with, you're not
26:22
familiar with, you know, Southeast Barelias?
26:25
Yeah, Dara. Hi mate.
26:28
You coming on out of The Cave? Yeah, he left with the body.
26:32
One could assume you went with him, but I'm asking.
26:34
I'm going to start looting corpses.
26:35
There's a bunch of dead goblins all over the place.
26:37
OK and not our problem. I got a 15 on a nature check to
26:41
find a good spot to bury Vallejo.
26:43
Just want a nice pretty area. OK.
26:46
So wasn't wasn't there like a big one that we killed or a?
26:50
Special one? No, it was common.
26:51
Yes, Yes, there was. Yes, there was.
26:54
Yeah, I'm going to go with that one.
26:55
OK, you have a little bit. We'll give me a perception check
26:57
just because. Because whatever.
27:00
And now all the lights. Gone.
27:01
Well now, besides the emerge of the.
27:03
Fire pit, I'm lost in the dark. Well, I figured I would have
27:06
left my torture Nick 'cause I can't carry like drag a box.
27:09
I was probably, I was probably right.
27:10
He was probably right behind me. I'll say.
27:13
I mean, I can't carry a torch while dragging a sludge.
27:16
And I already have a life they could be following.
27:18
I am. Because I'm leaving just in
27:20
disgust of carrying human remains, right?
27:23
Who left this weirdly handy torch on the ground?
27:29
Fair enough. Still on fire?
27:31
So you you start looking through the bodies you're passing over
27:34
these little goblins, these little goblins, and then the one
27:37
that was actually garbed in some claws and they had that staff
27:41
with the skull, the human skull on top of it.
27:45
You get to that body. I didn't know there was a staff
27:47
with the. Human skull.
27:47
I'm going to loot it. I said that.
27:49
He did. How did you?
27:50
Think I'm going to loot it? Get that staff.
27:52
Are you going to become a necromancer?
27:56
It's just nice to have a staff it.
27:57
Could be something magical. You don't have a staff.
28:00
Magical. What you have?
28:01
A. You have 1/4 staff.
28:03
I have 1/4 staff but it's a piece of wood.
28:05
Yeah, that could be a magical quarter, staff man.
28:08
OK evil voodoo magic staff 1st I'm going to loot his body.
28:14
Oh yeah, so that 15 on my nature track to find somewhere to bury
28:17
Vallejo. I find someone good.
28:21
I'm I'm I'm getting you look over this dead goblin and it's
28:27
garments and with the staff with the skull on top and give me a
28:32
perception checker investigation.
28:34
I already rolled my official role.
28:36
Oh yeah? What'd you get, 19?
28:37
Look at you, little pudding pop. All right, so obviously what
28:43
first sticks out is that staff. Of course it looks.
28:49
It's just good Lord, demonic. Just it just looks like
28:52
something that we get a lot of stairs as you're walking through
28:55
a town. I'm going to grab it and kebab
28:57
them with it. I'm not going to do that.
29:00
CJ Stop What? Are you doing CJ?
29:05
Nothing. I was in there like.
29:09
Stop. What is that?
29:10
Why is it so sharp? It's my life, Oh my.
29:14
God, what do you got there? No.
29:19
Also, as you begin to explore you do find a jewel this rough,
29:27
crude, not not jewel tailored gym of some sort.
29:33
It is blue in color and you also find several vials of greens and
29:41
Reds. So what I'm going to do is take
29:45
these potions and I'm going to go throw them on the ground.
29:48
No, I'm just going to. I'm going to examine the potions
29:52
and see what exactly they are attempt to give.
29:57
ME investigation or an Arcana check?
30:01
10. On the dye.
30:04
No. Yeah, some of them are
30:08
bioluminescent and but you have no idea.
30:11
They're pretty colors. I'm going to drink the red one.
30:14
Do you drink the red one? Yeah.
30:17
OK, all right, so. So you take this red glowing
30:25
vial and you chug it down. The moment you drink it, the
30:28
liquid burns like hot iron sliding down, hurt your throat,
30:33
your veins. They flash Crimson for a split
30:35
second. Then the magic erupts.
30:38
Give me a Constitution saved era. 9.
30:43
Plus that you have nothing in Constitution.
30:46
It's a 0. No, it's 6 plus my mod.
30:51
Nine. OK Oh my God.
30:56
Oh fucking. Roll me AD 4.
30:58
Fuck, please land on one. Please.
31:03
Eruptions start to happen in your body like boils, just.
31:09
Such a silly goose. Fuck do I die die.
31:17
That did double my total, not my total.
31:19
OK, this is OK. OK.
31:21
Wait, wait, wait. You collapse briefly, you fall
31:24
to the ground. You suddenly begin to have
31:26
visions. You see the goblin shaman that
31:30
is dead on the ground, but you see her alive and she's chanting
31:35
something and it's ancient. It's something in Goblin that
31:38
you don't understand, deep beneath the ice caves that
31:41
you're currently in, and you also see a vision of the Layo
31:47
screaming in agony. And as your vision comes
31:51
through, you open your eyes and you see Hoshiko the gun lying
31:56
just out of your grip on the ground.
31:59
And you have an advantage on your next role.
32:02
Yay, whatever role it may be. Fuck yeah, I didn't take any
32:07
damage. No.
32:08
Fuck yeah. How?
32:11
Close was he to taking damage. So if you would have gotten a
32:14
three, you would have had frozen veins for D20 days.
32:21
Your speed would have been halved for that, however many.
32:25
Holy shit. If you would have gotten A2
32:30
feral rage, you would become berserk for one round of however
32:36
many days beginning with combat, basically attacking anyone.
32:42
The nearest creature could be a friend or foe.
32:44
The one would have been the worst miss.
32:47
Oh God please be a one blood burn.
32:50
You take 2D6 fire damage as the function combust internally.
32:55
Died. Yeah, yeah.
32:57
So. 4 was literally the best option.
33:00
So I had a little mini acid drip and then I and then I'm like, oh
33:06
Dang, I feel like I'm going to get lucky next roll next
33:10
encounter. Let's just say you feel
33:11
inspired. There we go.
33:12
All right, I'm unmuting everyone, but please be mindful
33:14
of your I muted everyone. My bad.
33:19
Hey, hey, quit that Tom foolery. Who's Tom?
33:23
Tom's dead. Who's fooling around?
33:26
Oh, I really have to. Piss, go piss.
33:27
Oh. I have to.
33:29
Piss. This episode of The Frost, one
33:32
of is also brought to you by Superstition Meatery.
33:35
If you ever wondered what adventures were actually
33:37

34:28
The promo code is noise plate 20.
34:30
That's NOSEPLAY 20 at check out all caps Boom.
34:35
My brain stroked out while trying to think of how to spell
34:38
that. It's all from the Blueberry
34:39
Space Jam. Blueberry Spaceship's a wild
34:41
name. Sounds less like a drink and
34:43
more like a spell of wizard accidentally invented.
34:46
That's the next one we're going to try and cannot wait.
34:55
The chickens, Eddie. Oh goodness, I.
35:03
Think of the mermaid every time. So as you've made your way
35:09
outside of The Cave you are, Richie and Griff are dragging
35:14
the corpse of Vallejo. He's on a sled and I'm just
35:20
dragging his corpse. One's got a hand, the other
35:24
one's got a leg. He's just looking very funny
35:27
now. But so you're dragging this
35:30
makeshift sled of yours with the Leo's corpse on it.
35:34
And as you travel further down the rocky formations, you do get
35:40
back within the tree line. But you went SE as opposed to
35:44
southwest and it does become much more tropical and you do
35:50
find yourself with a bit of dirt, sand and a bit as you go
35:55
into the more forested area, which also I assume brother
35:59
Hayes, you followed that direction.
36:01
He's following him because he's probably going to have to help.
36:02
Barry, you're roughly, I'd say several yards, 50 feet away or
36:06
so from the rocky formations. Oh you said sand, so is there
36:15
water hand by like a lake or something?
36:20
Want to make a rule? Give me a perception.
36:22
Perception. Yeah, it's not going to be good
36:28
enough. Can I have Griff and Ricci help
36:30
me? You're here in water nearby.
36:34
Griff, Kind of. Looks.
36:35
Don't piss yourself man. All right, let me, let me, let
36:39
me take a look. I'll see if it's going to be
36:41
running somewhere, yeah. Oh, which way?
36:49
Philosophy. Can you hit?
36:50
It's it's. Coming up from.
36:52
On the other side, right there of the trees, no.
36:54
I'm sorry my ears aren't as good as they used to be.
36:56
Sorry, so sorry. Dad, so we're going to head that
36:59
way all. Right.
36:59
So you and Griff and Arici, you continue on.
37:03
I imagine Brother Hayes is following.
37:06
And shortly thereafter, you do come across a river that's
37:10
flowing, heading further southeast.
37:14
I'm going to wait for Darren to catch up to us.
37:16
I don't want to leave her behind.
37:17
Yeah, I'm just going to eat some, brother.
37:19
Hayes just uses time to properly clean his hands at the river.
37:22
Fair enough. That was a that.
37:26
Was a course. Man, I eat with these.
37:30
How do you know it was human and not elf?
37:33
If it was an elf, it's not cannibalism.
37:36
Would you eat elf? Probably I was hungry enough.
37:40
Not probably. Is that alcohol?
37:43
Yes. I'd high five you if this table
37:45
wasn't so long. All right, I'm going to go to
37:49
the exit of The Cave and blow my whistle.
37:54
All right, roll with advantage and animal handling.
37:57
Ah, meditating. Advantage.
38:02
Oh hey, 14. I'm going to take his advantage
38:08
away. I want the titty.
38:12
I'm going to go back in there if I don't get the titty.
38:14
You better not. So some time goes by as you're
38:19
standing on the outside of The Cave blowing your whistle.
38:24
And with that time, finally a large form begins to cross and
38:32
exit The Cave. And as it comes into light, this
38:38
black furred gatto comes. That's Spanish.
38:45
That's Spanish for cat. I learned that from pushing.
38:47
Boots did. You get a Panther.
38:51
And comes walking out and. As a titty, I knew it.
38:54
At first you just see front paws and face, and then as it comes
38:59
out further you do see spiked protrusions coming from its
39:04
shoulder blades, and as it fully exits you notice those spurs
39:09
also go down the length of its tail.
39:11
I really thought you were about to say he got a displacer beast
39:14
and I was going to be like. No, yeah.
39:16
No, I wouldn't. Do that.
39:17
Way too early for a displacer beast.
39:19
I would so you have this rather large little spiky big black
39:27
cat. Teddy.
39:31
I thought it's going to become its name.
39:33
Yeah, it's going to. Teddy's going to be.
39:34
Name it Paul. Paul.
39:36
Paul. Paul.
39:40
Paul. But I don't know if it's a male
39:43
or female. I just, I'm going to, as it
39:46
fully comes into the sunlight, I'm just going to kind of turn
39:50
my head upside down and look, see if it's a, it's a male or
39:54
female. Romeo D4.
39:58
Trace. It's a girl.
40:00
Yes. Name it Paul.
40:02
Paulina. Paul No, it's a girl.
40:05
Paulina. Paulina.
40:08
Paulina. Had a female cat named Dave.
40:10
No. Oh yeah, Go to them I.
40:12
Was gonna say Oh no we're waiting, you need to go to them.
40:15
Yeah, we're waiting for you. All right, Kitty, let's let's
40:18
get on our way. We got a ways to catch up.
40:21
You and your new feline friend make your way.
40:24
You follow the tracks easily, drag marks even scuffing through
40:28
the rocky formations, and you eventually catch up with the
40:33
rest of the group as you do so. Father Ostrich, Brother Hayes
40:37
Griff. I almost said.
40:39
Vallejo Griff and Horici Griff goes.
40:44
Hello. What's that?
40:46
That was that was a horrible cowboy accident.
40:49
Terrible. Anyway, but you all kind of just
40:53
perk up as you see Dara coming up and there is a large black
40:57
catted feline creature with her. Titty.
41:03
That's the name. That's what I said.
41:08
A titty. He just turns around.
41:11
Boy, you've never seen a titty before.
41:12
That's. A.
41:13
Cat Valea pulls her titty out. Did.
41:17
You see me? Leo pulls her titty.
41:22
He's dead. Valet was a woman.
41:26
Who craft looks down. Ah, Valet.
41:28
I need to do some push ups eh? There pops a titty.
41:32
That's what a titty looks like, mate.
41:35
Good dear, be decent. You know you like it be.
41:39
Decent father also covers his. Hand, but then you know he just
41:41
separates him just enough. No father also fully covers his
41:44
hand. He loves Barbara and only
41:45
Barbara. He is a gentleman.
41:51
Wait, wait, wait wait. I'm going to use command.
41:54
Look at me or no look. DC13DC-13.
42:02
I hugged. Course you're going to nap 1 I.
42:07
Couldn't save you. All I have is blessed that
42:09
doesn't. Matter.
42:11
Sorry, I'm sorry. Look at me and father, else
42:14
goes. Can't look away.
42:18
You fully believe now, Father Ostrich, that you could
42:20
comfortably identify Derez nipple out of a lineup of
42:24
nipples. Yeah, I don't like that fact.
42:27
What was the point of that? It's pepperoni nipple on a
42:31
They're still they're still lovable.
42:33
We. Just pepperoni.
42:34
We just met. What kind of introduction is
42:37
that? We just I.
42:38
Don't know, that's just how she is I.
42:40
Don't know. I just heard it.
42:41
I heard somebody say it once. I don't know.
42:44
Perhaps one day you could give me a name. 4110's The Name.
42:49
So is Gary. What's that right?
42:52
What's going on from the new Superman?
42:53
What's going on? You guys are not cultured.
42:58
Anyway, it's called being broke. Pepperoni just get you salami
43:04
because it's a little. Spicy.
43:08
Good one. Sorry.
43:11
I like it when you do that voice.
43:12
Good. It's from Pink Panther.
43:13
The good one, say hamburger, that was.
43:18
Good, that was really. Good.
43:23
No. That was great.
43:24
Hamburger. Young burger.
43:29
No. No.
43:30
Hamburger. Hamburger, that's that's
43:38
literally exactly how it goes. I've seen that movie like 50,000
43:41
fucking times. It's one of my it's one of my
43:44
favorite movie. Dumb bugger dumb.
43:48
Gagger Oba. Sorry.
43:50
So you're all together at the Riverside with the dead Vallejo.
43:54
I'm going to follow the river downstream.
43:57
I'm going to whoa, whoa, whoa. I'm going to get a glare in the
44:00
sun. I'm just going to call it out.
44:03
Do I need to roll a perception? I want to take the ring off of
44:05
a. I'm going to roll to see if I
44:09
see the ring on his hand and the glare.
44:12
In the sun perception. Boy.
44:16
What you get not. Damn.
44:17
Jesus fuck you didn't. Even look.
44:20
What was that? All right, mate, Mate, there's a
44:23
gold ring on his finger. Oh, it's worth money.
44:26
It might have been his fourth wife's, I don't know.
44:29
All right. Well, I guess I'll take it.
44:31
Griff just looks down. You know, I mean, we could get
44:34
some more health potions maybe. Actually, I do.
44:37
Have no mate, it's mine not giving you no health potions for
44:41
it. Diver you.
44:42
Being mean little woman. I saw it.
44:45
Remember Griff used to love diver it wore.
44:49
Off. Anyway.
44:50
He's mine now. Son bitch.
44:57
I'm going to look at Griff and go love, not specifying who.
45:02
So next, whoever he lays his eyes on next, he's going to
45:05
love. How many spell slots do you have
45:06
left? I don't know then do I even have
45:09
any more? She did have 3.
45:12
She had three left. The the class manipulator uses
45:16
manipulator points. She gets 6.
45:19
Yeah, not mono points. I'm pretty sure she used more
45:22
than three in that battle. I didn't use any.
45:25
And still doubt, and still doubt doesn't take any.
45:28
No, that's a bonus action. She used she Yeah.
45:32
You only used command which is 2 points.
45:34
So you have 4 left. No, no, no, she just used
45:38
commando Yeah, 2 left. You have two left.
45:40
So that was last. Command I'm going to use my last
45:42
two points on Griffin set. Love fuck.
45:45
Hey. Griff, you got to roll who he
45:47
lands. On Love.
45:48
I mean, and if we were going to be logical, I would say he
45:51
looked at Father Oscar because he just half fived them, but.
45:54
Yeah, just make a Michael blink and like we're just.
45:56
We're going to do an invisible orici here.
45:58
Including, yeah, Orici and the cat.
46:01
OK, everybody. 5 S roll of D66 is a reroll.
46:07
And you could say he just blinks.
46:11
Fuck. So Griff.
46:15
Griff High fives father Ostrich. Yeah.
46:17
And then you look at him, you make eye contact, you just go,
46:21
love, and he goes and he all suddenly just kind of locks eyes
46:25
with the brother Hayes and skips.
46:27
I throw a rocket day to break concentration.
46:30
Oh, hey. Holy man, you, you were really.
46:36
You helped out a lot in there. I just wanted to let you know
46:41
that I'm very grateful. I don't even know.
46:43
He puts a hand on your shoulder. He backs put his hands on.
46:48
Where you going? I put a hand on Griff.
46:50
I put a hand on Griff's shoulder.
46:51
Get him Tiger. In fear.
46:56
In fear of hearing that, Griff. Rolls his hand up in.
47:00
Fear grabs his Mace in fear of his.
47:05
Life. Oh, you like to play rough?
47:06
Hey, somewhere, honey. Hey, my name's Griff and my
47:11
wound's feeling a little better. How's your wound?
47:14
Yours is about to be a lot bigger if you don't get the fuck
47:17
back. How?
47:18
We'll come back to that. I appreciate you.
47:21
Just wanted to say. You, whatever the fuck you do
47:24
it, you're making it. I mate, I just gave him some
47:29
encouragement, OK? He he looked at you.
47:31
Father, I just following the river.
47:33
What Father? I just want to play out.
47:35
He's following the river. So does everybody follow up with
47:40
Father Ostrich? Yes, going downstream until I
47:42
until I find like lake, ocean something.
47:45
As you begin to do this, you start making your way.
47:47
You're following the river, and this goes on for quite some
47:51
time. About an hour or so into this
47:54
travel you come upon some ruins actually Father Ostrich with you
47:59
leading the way, you kind of trip stumble your your foot
48:03
caught something and you you know go forward a bit and then
48:07
you catch yourself. But as you do so, you start
48:09
looking around and you can see remnants of fallen old
48:14
dilapidated stone walls and structure.
48:18
That's not important. Keeps following river.
48:21
Fair enough. I'd rather not smell a body all.
48:24
Right. So you guys continue on.
48:27
Skip to that dungeon. Place with like ruins on it we
48:32
saw. The balls.
48:33
Yeah, we like, oh, we have a body to take care of.
48:35
They just walk by it. What the fuck, guys?
48:39
I still got to get to my daughter and bury my son.
48:41
I want to go touch the stuff. OK, I got.
48:44
To bury my son and find my daughter.
48:45
I want to go touch the. Butt.
48:47
Give me a perception. Check, I want to go touch the
48:49
butt. Derrick can go touch the butt.
48:52
I'm following the. Reference.
48:53
Yeah, I'm going. It's a reference to Nemo.
48:55
I know 79. So with a perception check, you
49:02
just see what was described. You you see the fallen fallen
49:06
bits of stone that looks like it was a wall at one point, maybe
49:09
massive. Your party continues on heading,
49:13
following down the river and you just see an old dilapidated
49:17
structure. It looks like it might have been
49:19
some type of fortress or something at one point in time,
49:23
but it's been taken over by age weathering decades, maybe
49:27
centuries of wear and tear weather.
49:30
There's enemies in there and we haven't rested.
49:34
You can make a map. You don't know that mate.
49:37
We can come back for it. No, we won't are.
49:40
You going to make a map or not? I just fell.
49:43
No, we won't. We might no.
49:47
You. Could all.
49:47
Use it all. When in doubt, make a map.
49:50
There you go there as you continue yelling at your crew
49:53
and your group. They they continue on further
49:56
down the river. I'm going to go touch the butt
49:58
I. Have a son to bury in a dotted
50:00
fight. We'll find.
50:01
My butt watching for you. Negotiation about a little small
50:04
knife in my pocket with this old man.
50:07
All right, all right. No butt touching for you.
50:10
Griff puts an arm on your shoulder.
50:11
I'm with you. Let's go.
50:13
Get the fuck off me, weirdo. Hey, that's my son.
50:17
Hey, I just met him, I don't care.
50:20
But look at how handsome he is. He is dreamy.
50:25
Still a weirdo. Sounds like somebody has a
50:29
crush. No, not my type bro, not my
50:34
type. Yeah, let me guess, you're like
50:36
women? Yeah.
50:37
Be more PC. With fat titties.
50:42
Hey, Deron. Mate.
50:46
I'm still moving down the river. All right, fine.
50:48
I won't go touch the butt. And you all go further on down,
50:52
following the river to its potential source.
50:55
As you do so, none of you see as an old man walks up to the these
50:59
old ruins ruins and it's just like and you guys don't see him
51:05
and you keep on going. What did you say, Father Oxford?
51:21
Motherfucker, I had a goddamn information point blowing above
51:24
his head and we were like, no, no.
51:27
I want to. Go back so bad he never skip a
51:32
side quest before. Dude, we have like, if we're
51:35
thinking at a party, we have a corpse with us, we're running.
51:38
I have barely any magic left. He they're both low.
51:41
We. I'm just saying, how many times
51:43
has Preston Govy been like, hey, go check out that settlement and
51:46
you've been like. Nah, Nah.
51:51
But Preston Govy. Yeah.
51:53
After much more travel, you start to hear the I can't make a
52:01
sound effect. You start.
52:08
That's beautiful. That's perfect.
52:10
Yeah. And you find where river leads
52:13
to ocean. I'm going to build a raft.
52:16
What the fuck? Originally Grip helped me build
52:20
the trap. I have advantage, I mean my
52:24
first role was an 18 though. Roll again.
52:27
Just got a van. Starts gathering some.
52:32
Yeah, I'm glad I had advantage. That second role was in that
52:35
one. Griff roll 13, so you know, he
52:38
starts gathering some stuff and he's bringing you the supplies
52:41
and he's trying to help tie everything together with you.
52:43
And we do this day. I got you, man.
52:45
Thanks, Griff. And Ricci's like Ricci is the
52:50
godsend. He's coming over with these
52:51
rather large logs that he's chopped with his axe.
52:54
My thanks are Ricci. Oh, not 20, I repeat.
53:00
That is technically a Nat 20. That is technically a Nat 20.
53:04
I'll do it. I Richie brings everything over.
53:07
He brings over all of the supplies you need to get this
53:10
going and you do successfully together make the raft.
53:14
OK, I put Vallejo's body on it and push it out to sea.
53:17
As your hands leave the raft, it begins to just take on by the
53:22
waves of the ocean and starts to go out.
53:25
At that moment, Griff has his his bow arrow.
53:29
I'm going to set it ablaze, yeah.
53:30
Yeah, but I had a better way of thinking about it.
53:33
And I fire bolt the boat. Give me a roll for it.
53:37
Roll for it. Whoop 21.
53:40
OK. Wow.
53:43
I wrote 60 1/2 + 5. Leaves your hand and just
53:47
ignites and actually explodes. You see a Richie's body?
53:50
Just go fly. Richie, why were you on there?
53:58
Holy no, we're ready. No, I'm just kidding.
54:01
He's perfectly fine. He just comes off the water.
54:04
But but you do you do push it out and you you set it ablaze
54:09
and it starts to take up quickly.
54:14
Engulfing everything. Does anybody have an instrument?
54:18
I don't know if anybody in this party has an instrument.
54:20
No, I haven't. I haven't gone through but.
54:23
I was thinking David's got a whistle actually.
54:25
Rook had a loot but. Actually, I was thinking, I was,
54:28
I was, I was thinking in back story if, if, if allowed, my
54:31
character would play recorder. I can have.
54:34
I can play a recorder. Like a pod track.
54:36
No, like a recorder. Like the instrument you learn in
54:39
second grade? He can somewhat play the.
54:45
Recorder. The equivalent the recorder
54:46
would be. What do you want them to play?
54:49
Just how about one of those little pipe?
54:51
Flutes a Falcon. Flute.
54:53
Pan flute. Yeah, yeah.
54:55
Yeah, he's going to whip it out and go.
54:57
He's. Going to play hot do.
55:03
It do it. I need a performance.
55:05
Let me roll performance. You should have tried it first.
55:08
Oh, oh wait, leave Debbie to be 15.
55:12
But I'm making my 17 I believe. Yes.
55:16
All right, all right, go ahead. Give us a performance.
55:20
Fuck. Put a penny to a penny.
55:30
I'm. Trying.
55:31
Man, you put me on the spot. I appreciate it.
55:34
Thank you. Puts a shoulder on your heart.
55:38
Hey, it's all take all the time you need.
55:41
Just just met you. It doesn't matter man, you're
55:44
being a weirdo. I.
55:45
Don't know what you want me to do?
55:46
You're going to spit your own games on.
55:48
Yeah, All right. Get away from me.
55:51
That's not what I miss. Father Austin puts his hands on
55:56
his temples. You raised him.
55:59
No, we just met him like a week ago.
56:03
I used to be a slave trader. I didn't, yeah.
56:05
His boss killed me apparently, but I haven't done.
56:08
I killed. Him.
56:08
I killed him. Oh well, actually I do have a
56:11
proposition now that we are kind of talking father.
56:14
While we're talking, can we be setting up camp?
56:16
David, give me a perception check.
56:20
Oh. No.
56:21
Oh. What you get single digit?
56:24
What? Yes, it is kind of cocky.
56:27
I will roll perception as well. God, Griff.
56:33
Richie. Can I have advantage for?
56:37
24 Thank fuck. So unbeknownst to any of you,
56:42
across on the other side of the river, about maybe another
56:46
hour's walk, you see a town's harbor and buildings and
56:50
structures actually kind of tropically luscious and
56:53
beautiful. Fortunately, Brother Hayes, in
56:56
the midst of your you're like and you see this town.
57:08
Land of holy. Oh, Miguel, wait, it's.
57:11
Land Ho. But I don't see any hoes.
57:20
Fuck you mate, I'm not. That's a whole move.
57:25
No, no, it wasn't a hoe. Hoes get paid, remember that.
57:29
You like? That those are prostitutes.
57:31
That's a whole move. You liked it?
57:34
You end up paying for. It.
57:37
You liked it? I don't think anyone did.
57:41
Come on old man, I'm not cleaning.
57:44
That you're not you're rings. I'm just measuring with you,
57:46
Darrow. OK.
57:48
I still didn't like it. What?
57:50
But why? I think you're a witch, but you
57:54
got an ostrich. Thank you.
57:55
Everybody's for one woman and one woman alone.
57:59
But. What's the point of chance
58:00
behind no emotion? You could go to a bar and get
58:05
applauded. Yeah, just go to a bar and
58:07
flash. That's a great idea.
58:09
Get us some money, Daryl. Oh yeah, say like Flash.
58:12
There you go. Guys, I think I'm just going to
58:14
go work at a brothel for a little bit.
58:16
Thank you. Down right over.
58:18
There yeah we just got down we can totally go look we're.
58:21
Going to head for the town. Yeah, it's a town.
58:24
Let me see, That is oh, that's pretty and it's not snowing.
58:28
Paradise. What the fuck?
58:31
We're in Dan's campaign and it's not snowing.
58:33
What the fuck? Every campaign I've been in with
58:37
Dan, there's been snow. You guys, you guys went to the
58:42
you guys were Southwest, you went SE and Virilius.
58:45
It's it's Virilius is 100% just a bunch of biomes because of the
58:50
as far as you know and as far as whatever whoever knows is it's
58:55
because of the volcanic activity.
58:57
Nice. So it's not some mystical item
59:03
that causes weather stuff. What'd?
59:05
You say? It's not some mystical item that
59:07
causes weather stuff, no. No man, give it a goob.
59:11
Give it a what? Give it a goob.
59:13
Does that mean? Does that mean roll for it?
59:15
Does that mean roll for it? Dan sometimes seriously at
59:20
Merrell for it. You would. 14 Fuck nothing good.
59:26
What's happening? I got sidetracked mewing.
59:29
I'm trying to. He's goofing the staff.
59:32
I'm trying to learn the lure of our world.
59:35
You don't fucking know. Fuck my let.
59:39
Me see that? Rolls for 30 minutes.
59:42
What am I rolling Akana to see if I know what this is?
59:45
What? What is?
59:46
The staff do. We know, yes.
59:49
Don't make me I. Have 19.
59:51
Okay. 19. 19 I'm good. I wrote a 16, have a + 3.
59:55
So you look over this staff. We'll walk into the town wall.
1:00:00
We do this. Yeah, and finally you start to
1:00:04
understand its properties. It is a staff of dominate
1:00:08
person. Oh.
1:00:10
With some darker EP properties as well.
1:00:14
Dominate person. That's a crazy staff.
1:00:18
I'm going to get dominated. Yeah.
1:00:20
It's just. It's just the coolest thing with
1:00:22
the skull on Adaira. I'm going to keep it.
1:00:25
Can I roll to see what it does? I thought you already did.
1:00:28
Yeah, I thought you already. Did no, I was rolling for
1:00:31
something else. All right, you ready?
1:00:32
That's back. Fucking piece of shit.
1:00:35
I'm trying to deceive him. He's trying to deceive.
1:00:37
I want to know what it does. I told him it was just stick
1:00:40
with the skull on it. Yeah.
1:00:42
Wouldn't it be like? So that's deception versus
1:00:43
insight. Yeah, what's it you wrote?
1:00:45
Your insight? 17.
1:00:47
What's your deception? Yeah.
1:00:48
Probably not good enough actually.
1:00:51
Is it? Bulk. 16 Wait, wait, wait.
1:00:55
I cast guidance. I cast guidance.
1:00:59
What the fuck? 18.
1:01:02
What the fuck? 18 yeah, I got, I got he's, but
1:01:08
he's got some experience. Just a staff.
1:01:11
So as you make your way, your path bends around a Ridge of
1:01:14
black volcanic rock. Warm wind rolls off the ocean,
1:01:18
carrying the smell of salt fish and burning oil below you.
1:01:22
You see this now. This place reveals itself as you
1:01:26
see a sign as you continue on. Roughly done, handmade of wood
1:01:33
and burned stone dwarf a massive harbor carved into a Crescent of
1:01:39
dark cliffs. Hundreds of ships crowd the
1:01:42
docks, tall mass creeping in the wind like a forest of Spears.
1:01:47
Bells ring somewhere across the water as cranes lift cargo from
1:01:50
ships onto the stone Piers. The city climbs upward from the
1:01:55
harbor in tears of weathered wood and dark stone.
1:01:58
Smoke curls from chimneys. Lanterns sway in the sea breeze.
1:02:02
Dockworkers shout over the crash of waves.
1:02:06
So pretty. Goals scream overhead.
1:02:09
Farther out in the Bay, a massive 3 mass vessel slowly
1:02:12
turns towards the ocean, sails catching the wind as it begins
1:02:17
its journey. Stone Dwarf is alive and
1:02:22
somewhere in this chaos. Father Osric, you know the trail
1:02:26
of Sister Marin begins here. You all stand at the edge of the
1:02:35
lower Wharf district. You see cargo being unloaded,
1:02:41
sailors arguing over pay, bunch of commotion, harbor guards
1:02:45
inspecting ships, merchants shouting out prices, dock cranes
1:02:49
lifting cargo crates. The entire place feels like
1:02:53
organized chaos. Insane.
1:02:58
I'm a log up to the closest. Person where's the closest in?
1:03:03
I could use a nap. So you walk up to this
1:03:08
disheveled older man, salt and pepper hair, one good eye and
1:03:15
he's just. Sorry, what's that?
1:03:19
What do you need? Where's the closest inn?
1:03:23
Cheap if you can make it too. I don't care about cheap, just
1:03:27
an inn. I want to sleep.
1:03:29
If you want, if you want something close, it's right
1:03:31
there. You just go to goals.
1:03:34
Goals. Which direction?
1:03:36
Fucking behind me. He starts pointing just a little
1:03:38
further into town. Some, I mean some of these
1:03:42
buildings look beautiful, but others are kind of look more on
1:03:46
the ratty side. But he's pointing down towards
1:03:49
the entryway. Goals is is right back there,
1:03:54
just three buildings down. It's nice.
1:03:57
They'll treat you kind. Thanks.
1:04:00
Yeah, no worries. They'll treat our.
1:04:07
Wait, what do you mean they'll treat our kind?
1:04:10
He said they'll treat us nice. He's.
1:04:19
Racist what? The inner Karen was coming in.
1:04:22
Karen was coming out. Sarah's going to slowly turn
1:04:26
into Karen. I'm going to cast command speak
1:04:29
to manager. Mike with my character being
1:04:34
terrible at directions. He's just wedding Father Otrick
1:04:38
from Oh yeah give me. A Give me a survival check.
1:04:41
Oh, goodness, Yeah, I could get lost.
1:04:46
I'm following you so I could lose you in the crowd.
1:04:49
So what am I rolling? Survival.
1:04:51
Survival 16. 16 God damn it. Not lost.
1:04:57
So there's a moment where Father Ostrich goes right, dodging a
1:05:02
couple of onlookers as they come walking by.
1:05:04
And you're like, oh, bro, go left.
1:05:06
And then all of a sudden Griff's like, oh.
1:05:09
No, no, no, no. Come on, this way.
1:05:11
He just, like, begrudgingly follows him because he knows
1:05:14
he's lost. Like, oh.
1:05:17
Don't worry, I got us. It's not going to be all right.
1:05:20
Just because I don't want to get lost.
1:05:21
Do we make it to the end? Dara.
1:05:25
I'm playing with my titty. As you further go in,
1:05:30
immediately, all of a sudden a halbert and a spear come down at

1:07:19
a big heavy sit, single, heavy sit heavy set single door.
1:07:23
It opens up. You guys come in and immediately
1:07:26
you're just met with music. It's stomping around.
1:07:29

I'm assuming they're behind the counter.
1:08:05
So, so as you walk in, I mean, you're literally just, it's a
1:08:10
flooded crowd of people there. There's dancing, there's people
1:08:13
sitting at tables. You would literally have to bump
1:08:15
shoulders and squeeze in between people.
1:08:18
And as you do, you make your way towards the counter.
1:08:22
Once you do so, there are actually, there's three people
1:08:25
behind the counter. There is on a young woman, an
1:08:28
old woman and a man. And they're just, you know,
1:08:30
passing out drinks, just trying to keep people happy.
1:08:33
It's very busy, lively. It's good to.
