I'm collecting them like Pokemon cards. It'll be worth something someday. Yeah, they might be, of course. You're frightened. And then it's going to... You know what? That was its second action because it moves as part of its weird shadow thing. Its third action. It's going to hit you again. This time, it's going to hit you with its fangs. Oh, wow. Not bite you with the fangs. Hit you with it. Don't hit you. It's bashing you in the face with them. If I could have it do bludgeoning damage, I would. Well, that's pretty good damage. Oh, ow. Jesus! 37 more points of damage to you, Vina. Do you have a reaction, like, flashy dodge or something? I do have flashy dodge, but... Or, well... Oh, I have it on. I have it on and it still hits.

I'm now hurting now My back hurts Oh Alright Alright Oh my god It's back again Run Run Run Everybody pray Okay What I am going to do No I need to see I have to double check the doctor's visitation here It has flourished so I have to plan my moves Accordingly to battlefield medicine people To see if I can maximize My stuff You can spend two actions Of doctor visitation to assist stride And then use either first aid or trick addition If you have that feat Okay That's either or I move up and I do it Okay So there's just one action to do Tree raiser I'm ready to tree raiser I show you now Is it intangible Stop stalling I'm trying to find the right time To do his thing It's good Just love and have fun So Orin is going to do doctor's visitation Over to Tannhauser He's going to basically Just come on down To the ground Okay So he's going to be on the ground now In danger zone I do apologize We're going to go Yes here This diagonal Get to Mr. Tannhauser And go like Be healed And so that just takes one action to do With doctor's visitation He is going to be like He's like Mr. Ooshauser Disco did not Whatever the hell you tried to do there A small bubbling of ooze from a distance Orin like takes a bite out of your ooze Switches it in his mouth a little bit And spits it back at you But it's glowing green And begins to make you potentially heal better But because of the bite You have to take some damage first With risky surgery So that'll go through Does a nice little crown on you You get healed for 49 I got two click things There don't worry And then I can't do doctor's visitation again But I do have two actions left And I'm going to stay where I'm currently at Go to look at Veena And I actually have to make a debate here Actually I'm going to try to do something Different here I'm going to do one action To move to the left of Veena And I'm going to do my last action To do Lay on hands And That can help you out At least with your AC Because with lay on hands As Orin brushes up Miss Veena And then He doesn't take a bite out of you But as he flaps his wings You will now have the effect Of lay on hands on you And you get healed for 42 I got the healing on you already And for that you should now have The lay on hands buff I think Yes you should have that So that should increase your AC Thanks buddy So that's it My first action Go into there Then boom Go over the healing Veena So Veena's popped up Tannhauser's popped up He can't see Baldrick right now He doesn't know what's happening to Rahula Because he's in the oh no zone And so that Question Yes Question So it was move Heal Tannhauser I did Doctor's Visitation was the first one So Doctor's Visitation Okay Move up It has a move as part of it Gotcha Gotcha Yeah so that's how I was able to do all that action Very nice Don't worry I understand Awesome Don't worry I'll be cheating But with that I am done Intern Hi Veena Okay That's me Thanks Orin Thanks buddy I'm still really fucking scared right now It's okay Ms. Veena We fought worse I thought we did But these guys are kicking our ass We can do anything together Ms. Veena We can do anything together Ms. Veena We can do anything together Ms. Veena We can do anything together Ms. Veena So what happens I just throw good You're right Like good Good nice creatures at you Instead of fucking And you Truly you are the enemies Exactly Are we the baddies? Alright First action I'm going to Faint Get a little panache Panache Panache Panache Alright I fail But I still get the panache On a failure Because I am a fencer And I'm not going to fail So I'm going to um oh man you failed by two which is the exact amount you're frightened by isn't that everyone wants to take a shit on me all right i'm hitting him i'm hitting the bird i got him oh with a 41 we got him um yeah damage i've got my finisher ticked let's go oh nice that's not bad 40 points of damage you slash into this thing expertly um causing some of its its its semi-corporeal form to burst out around you in in this kind of like spectral light that seeps from it knowing that it's not truly incorporeal but it gives off this image all right and then i'm going to try to strike this creature one more time that this beautiful majestic creature you uh at a minus five and i whiff it uh by two again why is vena going it should be tannhauser's turn i was thinking that but i didn't want to why did that yeah i have tannhauser here for the ward weird yeah vena why did you do that yeah i don't know why i'm just greedy i'm just a greedy bastard uh no let me let me check here um okay okay okay so i'm checking and my screen had her in the center and highlighted so i just reloaded and now it's tannhauser there so foundry was being a weirdo for me found i'm foundry's favorite i guess okay here's what here's what we'll do here's what we'll do here's what we'll do uh tannhauser and rahua both delayed until after vena that makes sense yeah there we go there we go this is a good gm knows how to fudge the numbers so that people don't get angry at him this is very important tannhauser uh tries to say one of his famous catch phrases but instead just goes blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah i want to start first and um i'm going to try to persist with what i've been trying to do for a while i am going to attempt to pry orin's mother free from this ancient tree in hopes that that may be some sort of load stone yeah well i believe athletics chick absolutely uh i do not get my nanite surge since i already used it yeah um i don't have any magic or any other tricks up my sleeve so let's rock it with The Athletics check. And that's going to be a 13-mana die for 33. You were finally able to peel back some of the rot, breaking off strands of it that hungrily seemed to snap back. But there's still more to get through here. I see, I see. How many actions does that count? It's ooze versus rot. In that case, it's one. But you take a multiple penalty for subsequent ones. All right, well, we're going to keep going. This is that important. Okay. All right, so that's another roll. And that is of a seven on the die for a 27. Ooh, not that great. It's a 22 total, which will sadly not be enough. The rot seems to be fighting back, though you're able to keep it from reforming and clutching on. You're not making any more progress, though you feel you're close. One more. I hate you, chat. It's oozing time. That's a natural one. Oh! Ah, this is... I should have fixed this. Click that complicate button. And then when you click whichever one you want, that should now allow you to post it in chat and stuff. So hopefully that works this time. Oh, foolish me. I did not get the XL. I'll cheat up. No, no, no, that's fine. This does it automatically for you. Use the button. Yeah. Oh, beautiful. Yeah, you just click that complicate button in chat. Oh, I like this. Oh, this is awesome. So you read through whichever one you want. Then when you pick which one, you click it, and it should post to chat. There you go. It does that. It shows it and everything. Hello, this is me by Stad Nathurcel. Suddenly get a flashback that takes you through what led you to your current situation, causing you to monologue either yourself or out loud. Oh, that's awesome. Oh, that's awesome. Oh, that's awesome. Perfect. Perfect. Okay. How do you fucking ooze monologue? Then there's like an overlay of like, so you're probably wondering how I got here. I take a look at Oren's mom. I grasp her by the shoulders with my oozing pseudopods, and I begin shaking her, and I begin emotionally telling her about all of the cases, and I begin emotionally telling her about all of the cases, and I begin emotionally telling her about all of the cases, and I begin emotionally telling her about all of the cases, all of the character journey that Oren has gone through, how much he's been through and how brave and strong he's been this entire time. And for the sake of his son, she must persist. She must stop this to fight this or end this. And then he realizes halfway through the final conclusive paragraph that all that he's been saying has been . And he's like, as long as it works. All right. Alright, and that's the chance. Maybe she speaks slime. That's the Oosthouzer turn. Alright. That brings us Hey, buddy. Hi, Thurston. Hey. Hey, buddy. Can, uh... Well, give me one sec here. Gotta roll something. Okay. Take your time, Thurston. It's fine. Oh, I am. Don't worry. I know. Can you give me a Fortitude save? Sure. Here you go. Here's a Fortitude save. Oh. Oh! That's a 31. This'll fail. Okay. Of course it will. Well, you're only going to take 24 points of cold damage at the start of your turn. Wow, that's awesome. Now tell me what other damage I have to roll to take. Well, so, you're also in the tangling Vineymen things, but those just slow you down. So, so really you're just like double slowed in the fog, uh, because you're clumsy. So you're actually at minus 25 feet of movement right now. now so oh so what you're telling me is there's zero way for me to leave would have actually started minus 20 feet um but yes that's correct that's correct you are cold uh grappled by tiny plants at your feet and in an invisible cage that's great thurston i'm gonna gonna do the best i can to survive right now and i'm gonna i believe in you i am gonna pop a level two heal of myself spend one of my cleric funds hell yeah do it do it maybe you'll get good dice rolls 59 it's not terrible 59 59 and i'm gonna use my five feet of movement to move five feet and you go right up against this invisible barrier that you could feel right at the at the north of you wow this sure is i'm oh god it's so cold in here anarchy help me am i glad i'm frozen in here and they're out there and i'm in here they're out there but what i want to know is where's baldrick well hey baldrick what are you so um you're currently dying yep i gotta make a roll to not yeah you gotta make me a recovery check it is a flat check with a dc uh equal to 10 plus your dying value yeah so character sheet top left there under temp hp number there yeah got it so i am a dying two i'm gonna roll oh i got a one oh no hey thurston uh-oh uh-huh that gives me two points of dying because of the crit failure uh-huh i think that puts me at four that fucking kills you i die awesome what yeah you're dead huh yeah uh dice just kind of screwed me on that one and because it's a one uh you're dead yeah uh dice just kind of screwed me on that one and because it's a one uh you're dead you're dead i can't really do any can i re-roll that yeah yeah you can you can finally take my pity erndale you can take it oh no i have a hero point we started it didn't we or no i'm out aren't i i'm out of i'm out of hero points no you've got one hero point uh except for thurston do we all start with the hero point today or no no not not mid-fight you don't get to reset okay so you don't start with one but okay i will gloriously grab my hero point gloriously grant you a pity point they're gloriously yeah you're gonna complicate it anyways I know it's just yeah I like that you're giving me this it's like I'm graciously giving you a thing that does not kill your character I'm gonna do I mean to be fair to be fair it's not that it doesn't kill you I mean you can still roll another natural what are the odds of that very well see this is really funny Thurston because of all of these things none of them work because they all require me to be awake you you oh really well don't worry don't worry no it's okay I'll just pick this one because I think I've got a funny one the complication by tab 13 is what was that a loud noise draws the attention of anyone who hears it uh the loud noise is Baldrick loudly nearly dying what does that sound like yeah uh it is the sound of audible blood gushing which Rahua I will say can hear perfectly well from his frozen pit of hell because he is very attuned to such things he is very attuned to the specific sound of Baldrick bleeding out from two bullshit void explosions that I couldn't even get a chance to walk away from throws a rocket you so yeah all right there we go oh all right see what that re-roll is see what that re-roll is we're gonna try that again now I just I just roll the recovery check again I don't like re-roll it with a hero point do I yeah you can just you can just recall it's a flat check so there's no you do you can't get bonuses on yeah 19 that's a success yay hooray I want you to again it was very close to that one and that one would have been really funny because then I would be dead oh well I know so your your dying value goes down by one you are now dying awesome that's very funny he lives yeah god that's that was Thurston hits me with two 60 foot explosions yeah welcome to the fucking mid-levels I couldn't move cool um I go with the other paraton the other paraton that's flying around will hmm this is funny oh I don't have enough movement to do what I want to do very sad um yeah you should just stand there and do nothing he's tired he's tired yeah that's true that's true but he does have oh Zeke it's gonna it's gonna fly over to here it's going to roll me it's gonna roll a d20 for reasons okay um it can't target Rahua so it's action fails oh well that's good because Rahu is concealed in the mist and he can't quite see through all of the mist to try to turn Rahu into a statue um come on now or at least put the slowed condition on him which would be equally as funny in Rahu as current it will take six points of fire damage in an attempt to make a recovery test I gotta say something he is no longer a fire I gotta say something by the way it was very funny that you uh I almost died to that crit fail uh and then Cab shows up in the chat yeah no it's okay the only other player to die in one of these as far as I know I think twice now it's okay I'll give him a third time wink don't worry Cab don't worry Cab Cab Cab he messaged me during this to be like Thurston Thurston I desperately am in love with Guardian now I want to be big thick boy and I'm like that sounds like a challenge to kill you Cab um alright I got I got a flying paraton by Avena um this paraton is now fully armed and operational armed? uh he's got a gun because now it's mimic shadow ability is up and it's flying above you Avena and you're frightened one so it's gonna start with the antlers and move its way down forcing more checks on you oh it's okay Miss Avena I got your back yeah you got a little heel robot behind you what is the worst that could happen my little buddy okay that's just a regular hit okay that's just a regular hit uh regular style yeah yeah yeah yeah um okay so you're gonna take roll this deal flying the flying paraton deals 40 points of damage ow and then I'm gonna have you uh haha take another will save give me another will save okay as it's starting to inflict multiple frighten-y conditions on you oh! aww look at that oh! that's a 20 maybe okay very nice you do not fear the dark I am not afraid it follows up with tiny bites ow it misses its tiny bite oh I'm good uh yeah yeah it misses its tiny bite and for its last action there you go it flies 50 feet to here to get back here yeah I strike at thee uh it's heart would like to do an attack of opportunity it explodes and dies sorry oh shit I didn't realize that it was funny you're in my head I whiff you whiff I whiff because you are prone and clumsy and and and and all of the things I'm having a tough time I'm having a bit of a tough time wait why am I prone? when did I fall off? I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know why is this happening like this? one more this is the second time all over well I'll get up next turn oh boy that's the second Periton's go Oren you're up also Veena the Lay on Hands has dissipated from you but you're only afraid one now so oh it's okay Miss Veena this'll help keep you going going along in the fight this means you as long as this is up you can't die well theoretically hahahaha hahaha hahaha hahahaha hahaha I cast... Oh, no! Oh, sorry. Oh, my bad. Veena turns into a bunch of big, wet eyes. I cast Regenerate on Veena. Ah, very nice. To explain what this does, I'll read through it, because we haven't seen it, it's a 7th level spell. Um, an infusion of Vigilant Energy grinds your creature continuous healing. The target temporarily gains regeneration 15, does it last for a minute? Which restores 15 hit points to it at the start of its turn. So, at the start of your turn, you heal for 15. While you have regeneration, you can't die from taking hit point damage, and its dying condition can increase to a value that would kill it. This stops most creatures dying, conditioning it to dying 3, and all that stuff. Nice. Nice. There's still a technical way for you to die, but it's a lot harder. Like, if you get knocked down, you just regenerate back up. Um, so each time the creature... Okay, cool. ...regains hit points, regeneration also regrows 1 damage to a ruined organ, so you can regrow your limbs. So if you, you know, lost your tonsils as a kid, or got them cut out, they're coming back. Oh my god, my wisdom teeth! Yeah, they start growing. Ahhhh! Odo, Veena's a sylph. They don't have wisdom teeth problems. They don't even have teeth. That's right. True. They're gone. Nah. They use, uh, they use, like, they're like whales. They only eat krill. That's right, they're baleen. They filter out all the bacteria from the alcohol they drink. This is true. This is the deep lore. It's the sylph-co-foo-foo-tood system. Remove their teeth so they can eat the magic. That's true! I wanna be a foo-toober too! Well, now you can! First of all, your teeth are removed. So now, uh, for his last action, because I'll take two actions to do it on my last action, I will lay on hands on Veena again, and that shall... Thanks, buddy. Heal thee up for 42 again. And you got your AC bonus up again. So now, you're good to go kick its ass. I have set you up. Yay! I need to go take care of other people right now. So your appointment's over. Okay. This'll be 5,000 gold. Oh, oh, okay. In turn. Now it's your turn, girl. Now it's my turn. All right. Veena is going to... Uh, uh... Free action. I'm gonna ruffle Oren's hair and just... Thanks, buddy! We got this! It gives you a thumbs up. First action! I'm gonna move. Uh... Oh, why is it saying... Am I... Oh, I do have to get up. First action, get up. I am standing. Stand up. First action, stand. Second action, I'm walking you. I'm gonna get here. Oh, wait, do I need one more to be with the Paraton? Yes. Oh. Oh! I do not have... Oh, wait, no. It should be 45. Why does it... Why does that say 50? Just go down because diagonal is double. So go down one more space and now you'll be diagonal. Oh, yeah. There I am. But it is five feet up in the air. But by the relation of that, you're still adjacent to its square. Yeah, I'm still... I can still hit if it's only five feet. I'm still... I'm still... I'm still... I'm still... I'm still... I'm still... I'm still... I'm still... I can still hit if it's only five feet up. So I should be okay. That was two actions. And then third action, I'm just gonna have to smack it normal style. I don't know why it says I have panache. It gave me it twice. There we go. There's a little glitch thing. Oh. I love this game. This is the best game. Oh, my God. This is such a fun game. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. This is the ones episode. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. This is the ones episode. You remember that other fight? Yeah. What's fascinating here is that like we could theoretically heal up a lot of the damage, but it's not gonna mean anything because this fight isn't being timed. We're just gonna lose the DPS race. Oh, here we go. I've got another. I've... with this one but um uh here's a good complication my body's had enough or wait i think i've already done this one did that one not uh i don't know i i don't remember i can consult the sheet the sheet the sheet no you have not oh unless you just forget the market maybe i was just looking at it uh i don't remember yeah whatever they get a twofer i guess if he did yeah uh by carlowski upon critical failure of any athletics acrobatics crafting attacking spellcasting or any other strenuous activity the body of the player character simply gives up and collapses onto the floor like a wet noodle whether it is out of exhaustion illness or whatever cause the body simply refuses to cooperate for a moment um and uh yeah vina's just gonna ragdoll based i get right up and they take me down one sec here i'm just gonna get knocked down again there we go it's my favorite condition i love being prone i go bed that's right you go back and uh that's my turn guys my very impressive dps oh yeah just saying that happened on the last episode but that was that seems like yeah it did sound familiar oh why you were proud then let me get a different one get pick a different one uh pick a different one can i can i can i go unprone you no chat thank ah okay uh you should be you should be able to get a different one you should have fuck it we're not gonna just go to the spreadsheet pick one up spreadsheet all right i got i got it favorited so it's okay i can pull it up uh because i got i got two letters you got your health pool favorited thank you chat for remembering we appreciate it thank you chat yeah you keep us honest chat give yourself a pity point we pity you don't give him that power we you i feel for you nothing but abjectness yeah you have to watch oh here we go here's here here's another one that will probably just end up with the same result um this one by zixinous complication name oh shit uh a slippery object banana peel wet soap dog poo etc escapes notice of a character that just steps on it with their full body weight at a really inappropriate time uh they are thus transported into a direction or obstacle against their will they must maintain balance and handle the consequences of their unwitting relocation okay so yeah i'm sure there's like a slippery patch of rot that vina just kind of skates into yeah i won't make you prone you have something worse don't you yeah i'm gonna increase your clumsy condition by time yeah yeah I don't even want to re-roll the hit anymore I don't even have finesh i'm ending my turn Leary you did it you wore us down I don't even i i i don' y' knowI don't even feel the pain everyone else has i'm in a different kind of universe I'm in a different kind of universe hell i'm in a i'm in a hell where i'm like i'm not getting fucked over i just i have to make one check i've literally spent my past four turns making one check that i'm not even bad at i've got like plus 20 and i've just failed the threshold like all but like twice basically so i've spent this entire combat just failing one skill check while everyone else goes through the battle of the psalm so on that note you're gonna give me that skill check yeah yeah back in my day i've got a laugh if this does nothing i will tear orin's mother and let's see what i rolled i rolled a no what you meant to say was you're going to tear orin's mother three

speaker i i'm doing the math right now if you're taking this at a minus 10 you're not making it but i could get a 20. you could get a 20 you go ahead there's nothing else that is more useful than a 1 in 20 chance to win okay because i was told not to it was yeah it was about to eat that 20 and it bounced off the bottom of the screen and and that's ten houses turn i'll see you guys next round uh good luck 26 it is not in fact townhouse in time all right back to the cuckoo cage give me a base of fortitude save rather to uh wow wow it's the same it's even worse the last time my dice are so good

saving the world chad are you having fun are you having fun chad are you enjoying this because i better be seeing i better see nose go my sycophants say no i'm just gonna roll some damage oh there you go there you go uh so trapped inside the invisible cage with tendrils grasping at your feet and a cold obscuring fog that did admittedly protect you last round um you take uh you you take a little a little bit more cold damage but you have your actions what are you doing uh so am i still trapped in the cage or can i leave it oh you're trapped you cannot exit this cage it's also invisible you just kind of walked into it you see wow outlined slightly from the mist which kind of gives it away a little me would this have a cool have a hardness value or something or i don't know you'd have to recall knowledge about the type of stuff oh course i would yeah it's nature you could do it i would love to recall knowledge about the cut cage remember the gut cage oh my god it was so close to that one i saw that it was alive 34 is that enough complicating the cage um do i possess a cash it cut cage knowledge yes yes you do it is a mobile invisible prison of hardened wood suffused with vital energy uh from the crucible of creation the cage is a 20 foot cube made of branches um each about a half thick and a half inch apart um it has 10 ac 20 hardness and 40 hit points is immune to critical hits and precision damage it has weakness to void damage that's the only thing that can get through it is spell effects or tiny sized creatures yes you and here it's the it's the perfect spell by the way just like for all of y'all out there who are like how do i make my mid-level threats better it's like the best three action spell you dump on an opponent and then go blast it because they have to live in the cuck cage until they until they break it or die from all your aoe's man i gotta learn the cuck cage this fucking sucks dude oh hold on it's got to be an arcane cut cage equivalent uh let me double check i'll see i'll see if there's thanks yeah just let me know it's an orange so i can do this horrible shit to you next well look i took some inspiration for you it is arcane and primal you absolutely can learn the cut oh fuck yeah cut cage jutsu it's not a kk genkai yeah you should spend all three of your actions next turn studying the cut cage yeah that's right i mean i might just fucking well it is it is a three action spell to cast but boy howdy when you cast it is it a game what's so fucked up i i'm sorry to to just fucking rant on your journal what's so fucked up about this is that like i feel like this encounter wouldn't even have been that difficult except for there's a bunch of small weird modifiers on this like the the fucking stags are intangible at a time when i don't have any good spells for unintangible well what what's really funny is the fact that like multiple times in last session it was determined that they are corporeal they just have the appearance of being intangible but by the point you discovered that you were already committed to the to the grippers maneuver oh my god yeah i forgot about that well yep so you have that you have the fact that we can't really or don't want to kill orin's mom who is clearly the epicenter of this so our usual chance of well if we can't beat the summons let's take out the summoner is out the window it's like a breakfast machine of misery i'm really excited to see what happens next i i like i like the mental image speaker of you explaining all the things that you're trying to do with the summoner and you're explaining all this as ooze hauser to the four of you over there and then in the distance baldrick is dying yes thurston so you said it was spell effects or void damage correct spell effects can go through it void it has weakness to void oh i see gotcha gotcha so here here i was pouring over my spell is like wait fuck i can't guess any of these things though killing myself or my teammates nick crowd is in this area no i won't just get a blow even Ned has to. no you can cast in and out of it you can cast in and out of this thing fine I can't really do much because all of it's gonna depend on people staying in the same area uh instead i'm i'm just gonna make a hole i'll do it for who it does best and make doors like the cave hold on no you just have to make an attack like a regular attack without targeting something it's gonna be a plus 23 to hit i believe in you you can only miss on a one in fact if it's easy you can just roll a d20 that's what i'm doing right now because it won't let me use my standard attack yeah i think we have that mod on that yeah look you hit yeah that's fine okay 34 uh roll damage okay 20 damage points a day you do 10 points of damage to the there's 30 left it's map minus 10 that's fine it's map minus five oh right right man minus five how could i forget well give me a d20 yeah it's gonna be a plus uh 18 it's gonna be a one is what it's gonna be all geek crowd no it would never be a one thurston but boy howdy it's getting close at 22 there we go that'll hit roll damage again okay that's cool rolling damage i need to buy some wd-40 for your chair thurston i know i'm sorry it's really bad lately oh all right well 70 damage oh is that cool it's it's minus 10 it is 10 hardness so oh all right there's 23 hit points left on the cut cage holy shit the matrix is i'm in this bitch i can't get out pass the excellent uh baldrick you want to roll me another recovery check please i think i would rather just take damage but i'll do that anyway thanks you're welcome there's my character sheet not popping up baldrick roll that one again there is my character there we go all right why are you so mean and that's oh there we go i i'm gonna tell you right now i didn't need the 20. i'm stabilized but i'm still out of the fight yeah you're still unconscious he's literally just chilling but now you are not dying you are unconscious what a what a waste of a 20. i'm angry i'm gonna all right all right well it's back to parroting time i test that cast that i've used a lot of good spells here fuck you fuck you there's just got the sears catalog over was like i didn't buy the like rideable lawnmower yet it's totally like a fucking serious catalog good primal spells too um it's gonna fly between oran and tannhauser the parrot and sort of gracefully glides behind the the group uh oran it looms above you it's actually gonna descend a bit as it comes in just so it's of tan hauser um it's good where is he going to lie in the corner or is he just not gonna keep him with any of those guys oh my gosh i'm just gonna keep him with any of those guys i'm so sorry about that it's just gonna be a lot of fun for me to play with our friends gonna cast spell on tanhousing tanhouser can you give me a fortitude save please yeah absolutely absolutely i can all right hold on oh my god sorry foundry is moving very slow for me nice your heart acceleration's on i thought i had to make sure it was off no always on you can't oh that's why it's moving so slow well don't worry because i rolled a three for 25. uh yeah critical failure what's it up uh oh no hey hey what's up hey speaker hey how you doing i've got two pity points left would you like one would you like to borrow a point for the bank of me yeah absolutely you know i'm just i'm gonna slide this coin across the table to you thanks i'll take that i'll take that yeah yeah yeah yeah i don't i don't even i don't even know what the fuck's about to happen i i'll just trust your word on that yeah i'll take a pity point yeah just reroll that thanks cool you got it all right 11 for 33 okay okay so it's a failure which is not a critical failure oh that's bad no no it's it's it's better than it would have been i believe you it casts execute on you and invokes the the demise of all things and you take 70 points of way damage oh yeah that's a lot oh Oh, oh, owie. I take 70 points? Yep. It's not 140, which is what you would have taken with the crit fail. Okay, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to reaction. No, I can't because I'm a giant. What? Why can't you react as a giant ooze? Ooze. I'm a giant ooze. I can't do that. So I think I'm down because I can't cast my spells as a giant ooze. Oh. I had temp HP, but I guess it's all gone away. So yeah, I think I'm down. Let's take a look here. I forget what happens if you go unconscious while you're polymorphed. If it's a concentrate, I think you just demorph. It's not. So it's just a minute. So I think he's still a ooze. Yeah. Cool. All right. Let me check and see. If I have any resistances that can help me here. Is this a critical hit, precision damage, acid piercing, or slashing? No, it's void. Void. Okay. This may shock you to know that I do not have any void resistances. Yeah, I think I'm down. And this is concentrate. Oh, it is? Yeah, it's concentrate. Oh, it is. Okay. So ooze form is concentrate. Yeah. So then you are going to stop being ooze, man. Yeah. So I go down. Mr. Tad, out of there. I'm going to put you in this square. One sec. There we go. That's fair. That's where I was when I oozed. Yeah. Honestly, it would probably be better for all of us that this happened. Okay. Okay. Okay. Oh, that's Parrot and one Parrot and two. Hey, Vena. Yeah, Thurston. Wow. I like that Venus to me directly now. She looks up at the sky. Yeah. You're about to knock out all of our DPS. You know what's going to happen. Come on. I'm going to hit you once with antlers. Just do that real fast. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. I've got a plan. I'm going to miss with the antlers. That's good. That's very good. I will get some panache for that. Yep. My next action. However. Is going to be casting a spell. Don't do that. I am going to. You can't do that. It's going to cast a spell. Uh huh. And he'll, he'll, he'll glide gracefully down to the ground as he does this. And I'm going to get you to give me a fortitude safe, please. It looks very oddly like the, the imitated action that you saw right behind you from ooze Hauser. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Oh, I looked at that 17 and it looked back at me, but it's a 25. Hey, Vena. Okay. I would like. Do I have a hero point? 揤 I don't think I do. Oh, there's one pity. Pointed. The tank. Oh, wow. Is this worth taking? Has, tan. H meter? Or no. Who else took a pity point? Okay. It's supposed to complicate. Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's right, yeah. So top left, the little person icon, you click that and you should see a skull icon. If you click that, it'll trigger the UI thing so you can do the complication button again. Oh, very nice. Okay, hold on, let's see. And that's how you can redo it for everyone else. You're on hold while we hurt her speaker even further. I need to be hurt more. I'm sorry, repeat again how I do that. I'm stupid. Top left on Foundry, I'll actually just give you a screenshot, actually. How do you do that? Oh, I see it, there's a little skull man. Yeah, I found that instantly. Why am I not seeing it, am I stupid? Click the ruler. I see it. Yeah, yeah, there you go. There you go, you did it. And that should give you the UI and stuff. Well, the only one that it's giving me is one that I have already used last session. So, okay, destructive rage. A punch, kick, throw or otherwise damage or destroy an object of the GM's choice. One sec. I think part of the reason you received only one is because you didn't pick two new ones. Sick. I think so. I think so. Cause I rarely actually get complications since I'm a wizard. Very mad. very mad speaker yeah I was going into your inventory to see what I could have you destroy from it and I was like where the fuck are the caltrops where are they I've been waiting two whole goddamn seasons since you fucking threw them at trees but they're gone they're not here you already took them in real rage it's true it's true your rage I'm going to have you destroy your climbing kit which includes your grapple hook no his best item my cool fucking grappling hook gone gone Veena that's me we return to you now I have good news so there is one pity point on the table still there's there's a pity point on the table that I'm willing to part with now before I'm you know part with this pity point do know it might be important for you know other things do know that based on your current hit point total you do have 144 hit points yeah I will save them if the crit fail occurs you will not go into dying you will have four hit points left yep so I I'm just gonna hang on I'm just gonna hang on I'm just gonna do my best I will save the pity point you take 140 points of damage as like this projection uh Oozehauser didn't see the the one behind him because it came from behind but you see the the mouth of this parrot and open and then like a spectral version comes out of the already semi-incorporeal and seems to dive for your heart attempting to consume it it ow oh fuck that was a lot of hp orenhove your allies are in such dire straits oh yeah Tannhauser has like reverted from being an ooze his hands grasped around the rot tendrils by your your mother connected to this tree Rahua banging with their pick attempting to get through this strange barrier. You see a heart strike on Veena. Across the tangling creeper miasm, you can barely make out Baldrick's collapsed form. If I combine the hit points of everyone in the party, they would have not even like a quarter of your hit points right now. What are you doing? Doing my best. Doctor's visitation. I run the townhouser. And I can battle for Madison twice. So what dying value are you at, Speaker? I am a dying one. I just accidentally got rid of my dying one. My bad. I don't want to risk it, because if I do a risky surgery, I bring that down to two immediately. So I'm not going to do that. So I'm not going to be able to do awesome stuff. But we're going to just do normal. Without that, see how well we can do here. I do have a hero points. Well, now I succeeded. 55 is fine. You get healed for 55. So you get that. I have no more focus points, so I can't do any lay on hand stuff on you. But I'm going to spend now my remaining two actions to give you a little hop. So I'm going to try to get you up here because I can do one action rush over. Well, I'm going to try to get you up here. I'm going to try to get you up here. I'm going to try to get you up here. I'm going to try to get you up here. I'm going to try to get you up here. I'm going to try to get you up here. Roll some healing for you. With my healing staff, I enhance it so you can heal for 76 more. You're basically nearly at full at this point. So Ornn just, just like shocks you with like, just natural healing. It just surges through your ooze form, sending a glow within. She's like, don't die, Mr. Tadhaser. And as he kind of looks around and, you know, hearing about it, Baldrick's Demise, Ornn's just panicking, because he's losing everything in his life right now. Like, this is some of his worst fears. And he looks over to Rahu as he begins to make motions to go there, but he can't, because it's the end of his turn. So, you know, your regeneration automatically applies. Odo, now it's your turn, so it already did that for you. Oh, very nice. You heal for 15 points, you have 19 health. Yay! Yay! Ornn, my buddy, my poor guy. Also, it's been past six rounds, is that first AoE still there, or? I don't know how long it lasts. Oh, yeah, because it's minutes. It's a minute, and so it's at least 10 rounds. Okay, okay. I'll stop for a second. Yeah. Alright. I'm on my feet, so Veena's gonna grit her teeth, and she's gonna hit this thang with a feint. I believe in you. Very clumsy as now. Just, uh, bobbing and weaving and trying to stay light on her feet despite the, uh, spell that is kicking her ass right now. Alright, I got the panache. And then I will attack! My second action. Ha! Ha! Got him. You'll hit? Just barely. Jesus. And... Some damage! That's pretty okay! That's 32! 32! Okay, the staggers back, kind of howling as you've struck it. Alright, come on. Let's get this over with. Quit bullying my little guy! I'm gonna stab it again at Matt minus 5. I saw that one. But nay. But nay. I like that we keep saying that as though the one is not on the die. I get the fear, but it is like, I saw the one! It's like it's visible from half of the gun. The dice was, like, lodged into the corner of the screen, and it looked like it was landing on the one. Yeah. Yeah. But luckily, no. So with that, that is going to be my turn. Vina is going to be my turn. Vina is going to be my turn. Vina is going to stay in melee with this thing, just desperately trying to keep it off of everybody else. Don't you have panache to do your finisher damage, even though you failed? I did do my finisher damage. Or no, I used my panache. Oh, I'm sorry. It just doubles it. My bad. No worries. It's okay. Hey, Rahula. Hi, Thurston. Basic fort save. Give me a fort save. This is my buddy. Are you... It keeps getting fucking worse, dude. I swear to you. I swear my dice are rigged. They're actively plotting my downfall. There are snipers outside of my house. They're beaming thoughts into my head. Control, Hulk, you've become aware of the operation. Please, take him down. Guys, guys, guys. I know you've listened to every Rock Grand episode ever, but I only need you to go back, like, two episodes to when they fought the lizard, and we're fucking laughing about how easy life was because they fucking had this abundance of 20s on everything. And the pendulum does swing both ways. I'm just... It swings both ways if you have your hand on the pendulum, Mr. Illuminati. I just had a coworker message me to say this is so painful. So... Come on! No kidding! Relatable, though, but, you know, um, our Paizo-sanctioned misery. That's right. Damn straight, it's painful, Lisa. Now, why don't you fucking get out of here and roll better than I can? I can't. Lisa's the owner of the company. I don't think she's messaging me. Um... Uh, you will take... I don't... Hey! Oh, I've got great news. I've got great news, Hulky. I've got such great news. Yeah, you got great news? You got great news? Such great news. You're gonna take double this because you crit failed with the 20s. Wow! Fucking cool! That's gonna be 48 points of damage, which, which, by the way, Hulky, puts you at the same four hit point value that Odo was at, uh, last turn. Yay! Um, you, you may, you may now take your actual turn. Oh, mister. Everything's coming up. Everything's certainly going to stop, right? Soon they'll get to do things. Will we? No, not, not you and me. I mean, they will get to do things. The creatures. They'll get to kill us. The creatures, they do get to kill us. Oh, yeah, no, they most certainly will. They most certainly will. They are allowed to do that. Uh, let me just, uh, let me just put that in the chat there just so I can, just so I can see, just like, I want to see something. For who is going to reach around his body and rip off the frozen pieces of bark so more of it can grow back, I'm going to cast a one-action heal on myself. Are you sure you want to do a one-action heal? It does not heal that much. It's true. However, our swashbuckler is about to get annihilated by a deer. And you're closer to me. I will come back up, uh, if that helps. Yeah, she has regeneration on. Yeah, I got regen. I, look, look, I apologize for being that guy. Because every time someone does a single-action heal, I freak the fuck out. So, let me... Well, sorry, I had a plan. I had a plan. Don't worry. You were 100% right? I'm going to shut the fuck up. You do your turn. My bad. All right. So, I'm going to cast that one-action heal on myself. And try and stay up a little bit longer. Okay, roll that. While you're rolling it, I'll give my next follow-up quote. This is especially hilarious as someone who has seen many a car totaled by deer. Oh, dear. Oh, I'm going to... I'm going to unsend that. I'm going to... I got you. I got you. I got you. You got this, Loki. I believe. Do I have to roll a fort save on myself to heal? No. That's for... That's weird. That's for undead. Yeah, that's if you hurt... Which you are now. That's right. That's true. Okay. Very good. I'm going to heal 26. Okay. 26, okay. That's all right. Good job, champ. Good job. And now that Rahua has de-iced himself, he's going to fiddle around in his compartments for something, anything. And pull out what looks like a little crystallized storm cloud. He'll study it in his hand with his frozen oculus because he can't rip out his own eye. And then he'll jam it into himself. And for two actions, I'm going to cast shock to the system. Okay. Put it in chat. We haven't seen this one before. A dense lightning cloud descends to fill the target space and fires a jolt of revitalizing lightning to the target. If the target is a corpse that died in the last round, the creature comes back to life with zero hit points and any effects and conditions it had when it died. But I'm not dead. However, either way, I get 88 hit points. And I gain access to a fifth-ranked thunder strike as an innate spell at will using my spell DC. Oh, my God. He's become Victor Dudlock. I am also now hidden until the end of my next turn. As if I wasn't hidden before. Now I'm double hidden. Oh, the AoE won't attack you then. Exactly. The AoE can't see me. What I find just amazing about this, that's great, that's great, is like, if you... The worst part, it's like the most sad thing, is like, if you hadn't made that complication and been sent into the gut cage, that would have been like the perfect spell to hit Baldrick with. Exactly, but now I'm back in the fucking building again. Okay. Well, yeah, that's my turn. Hey, Baldrick. Bye, Baldrick. But yeah, I better say, like, what the fuck? What can I do? You wouldn't even let me die. I know, I know. You need healing. Otherwise, you just stay unconscious. I need healing. You need healing badly. Tannhauser, you are... You are back to consciousness. You are prone. You remember something tear into your back. You are now awake with Orin standing like Mercy from Overwatch over you. What do you do? Okay. I'm prone, so I will need to spend an action getting up. So I will remove my prone condition. Okay. I rest to my feet. We're almost there. I've almost got her out of this thing. But hopefully this will help. Behold! Agents of the Forest! And I am going to cast Illusionary Creature. Okay. It is a second level spell, but essentially I am going to create the image of a flame elemental. Perhaps an image of something that... might have found its employ under Illort's care. The image of a fire elemental in the midst of the forest shooting fire at the forest. Okay. Now, the idea here, and I'll make it a large creature, is that hopefully this offense to nature will hopefully... I assume you said, you'll hopefully do this thing. First, before us. Yes. I don't have a means to put it down anywhere, but we can assume that there is a large creature just hanging out here. Here? Yeah. Like here. Okay. Where are you pinging? Sorry. There we go. In the far off. Sorry. Yeah. Okay. There we go. Whoa. It's causing so much devastation. It's despoiling nature. All right. That's my turn. For podcast listeners, our map is kind of square. It's just the top leftmost portion of the map where our fire elemental shows up. So a good chunk away. Yeah. So about 75 feet away. Just gonna... Give me a sec here. Ooh. I saw what was on that die. This one fails. Yeah, I can't do hidden rules anymore. It's gonna run off. It's gonna be that parrot, and you're gonna distract that parrot with a second level spell. See, that's why I prepped it. It's gonna start savaging that thing. The other parrot is not going to have that happen. Okay. The other parrot has a delicious feast in front of it. Hey, Veena. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Gonna hit you with some antlers. Kill my dog. Dog. Sam. Doge. It's gonna strike you with its antlers if it impales you. Can you give me a will save? Ow. Oh, but you'll succeed. I succeeded. I'm so willful. Yeah, you don't take more. That's good. You'll take 36 points of damage, though. And an owl. Whoa. Now, here's the funny part. You're... You're... You're regenerating. You're able to regenerate, right? Yep. Cool. I also have die hard. Cool. I'm about to do one of the most horrific uses of an ability I think I've ever had. I think... Oh, no. I think inadvertently Zordon has put you in the torture box. Yeah. The only problem with this, even though you can't go further down than dying three, that means he can keep fucking you up. Just a single thing of damage. Yeah. Will keep bringing you... I mean, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Will keep bringing you up. Just a single thing of damage. Yeah. Will keep bringing you... Well... I mean, of course, if it's more than fifteen to come back up, but still, it's... Well, what's gonna happen here? ...push me into torment nexus. Oh no, no, no, no, you, you don't understand. Peritons, these are obviously like spectral, like fucking, you know, cast spells, unique peritons. Regular peritons though, which these are based off of, um, have an ability... Oh no. ...called heart ripper. Oh! Did they rip open? Yeah. the heart of a corpse with their jaws holy shit yeah so I'm gonna take some creative liberty here oh my god so this thing is gonna eat your fucking heart oh my god yeah and then I'm gonna need Oren Tannhauser um to give me a will say wait doesn't is this an attack no it has to be dead yes that's why I said I'm taking some creative liberty I apologize I'm sorry oh may I um you can reject this but my plan was to delay consequence on that however it is specifically when it is hit by an attack I will say if you do that that's fine um um but remember it still has two remaining actions after that Veena die wait no Tannhauser it's fine I also have delay consequence doing it twice so my heart gets ripped out immediately twice in a row yeah we're gonna we're gonna heal your ass fucking quick uh yeah sure you know what if you'll allow me I will delay consequence okay but here here's where I'm gonna be be a judge I will allow it however Rahua the problem is is you need to be able to see the target you're in the mist so there is a chance that you will not you will fail your your concealed check so I'm just alerting you to that potential wait that is true I cannot because you are 40 feet away and delay consequence has a range of 30 hearts on the hearts on the menu boys here's what I'm gonna do though here's what I'm gonna do because again this is more narrative than technical I'm gonna I'm gonna take you down Veena with the strike with the antlers you're gonna fall down but you're like you're like fucking Wolverine your skin's healing now the primal energy is there um so you're kind of like drifting in and out of consciousness it's gonna spend two actions to eat your heart as you watch it happen um Rahua roll me a d20 just a flat d20 please oh sure it's 19 oh you you , you really wanted that one because you can see this happening so I need you to give me a will save oh god that's awesome as all three of you see this parrot and consuming the heart of your companion it's a 38 Veena's no good very bad day a 24 god damn it critical failure Oren got a four with the 26 that's a failure Tannhauser this really affects you which makes sense because of your relationship with Veena uh and how close you are to her uh you uh you are frightened too as you watch this parrot and spend two actions consuming the heart of your companion and then watching is the heart like in the split ribcage is reforming and the parrot looks down hungrily um yeah oh Dormant Nights Oren yeah Oren split you in the worst Dormant Nights I mean I am alive like like like I mean I am alive like like like like like okay okay like like let's be honest guys it's not that was not the efficient play at all I could have been just way more like gaming this is just more horrific as you're seeing oh no no he's taking a victory lap um what's what's that Greek guy who stole the flame from the gods and that's happening to you right now thank you thank you person in chat I was gonna say Thurston doesn't have a heart but now he does yeah thanks it's like my my plans have adjusted so now Rahula can you take care of yourself yeah probably go get Vida that was pretty bad uh yeah yeah I do apologize I do apologize let me let me talk through the process we're not sitting here in silence um I can either I do have one good one good piece of news I will I forgot to do in that turn yes sir sure um the cuck cage disappears yeah yay cuckless I can I can't this is the thought process is to get to Veena and just cast a two-action heal that will just still be super effective you can get Veena up and then figure all that out and she an keep tanking and possibly do some more damage on her turn because at this point she's down she gets she goes before that thing down so that kind of helps out or because I still need to rush the Baldrick because right now he's sustained he's he's sustained he's not dying anymore he's chillin' so what sucks because that means he's not doing anything which I think Baldrick's damage right now is very important very important um so i think my priority is to deal with vena first so we can try to nuke this thing down because i think we've done a good bit of damage to this thing so far so oran because i know that i've only battlefield medicined vena once so i am going to spend i'll try to be effective with this uh i could spend one action to go i have i have fly so i can actually go oh actually oh funny enough i have fly so i could just go 35 feet that way and meanly get her so and i go right along the edge go over to vena and i will battlefield medicine you and hopefully i do a pretty good roll it's a six i actually fell oh no i don't think i didn't spend help me with my memory because i'm no i didn't spend my hero point no i didn't yeah that's right i didn't spend my hero point you still got one yeah i still got a hero point i want to re-roll that using a hero point i believe it again it's a zero it's okay with the plus ten yay success success with plus ten 52 hp so oh that's all i can do uh for you uh i've already battlefield medicine you twice now that's all i can do for you that's one action the doctor's visitation and rush over to you and now i'm going to two action heal you and try to get you back up as much as possible the sixth rank heal spell and this is what's in the tank oh my god i still have some heels but they're from my staff now and only have so many charges you get healed for 86 so like orange is like clear he has like two pieces of like like bark he brings you right back to life feeling feeling fairly healthy um and that's going to be all three of his actions he's like miss vina vina are you okay i'm gonna be okay where's baldry where's everyone he's on the other side of the oh no zones i'm gonna be on my way to get him soon and i'll end okay his turn okay oh boy well i'm no longer in one cage that's good that's a start hey we can work with this thirst and how slow am i still uh so oh wait you are don't i yeah yeah you're still in the cold zone so yeah of course fort safe place yeah surely it can't be worse than the three oh no hey that's not bad it's an 18 for 40 yeah yeah you'll take half damage so that's that's good that's a good start it'd be really funny if you roll max damage here and it's utterly pointless for me nah it was actually pretty mid so you'll take 14 points of cold that's cool we can deal with that so you're still clumsy too so that um that means that you are currently at minus 10 for the crepers and minus 10 foot uh circumstance to your speed because of the creepers and a minus 10 foot status penalty because you and minus 10 foot circumstance to your speed because of the creepers and a minus 10 foot status penalty because you you critically fail to the speeds, as long as you are close to you. So you are currently at minus 20. If you leave the bigger zone, you will be at minus 10. Good to know. So I'm going to take that opportunity to move out of the inner zone. Yep. With five feet of movement. You're out of the ice fields. You're still flying, by the way. Yes. Yep. Oh, yeah. True enough. True enough. Actually, since you are flying, the creepers can't grab you. So you can move 10 extra feet. Yeah. Oh, wow. Actually, instead of moving there, then I'm just going to move over here. Absolutely. Put me right in the outside of there. You're out of the out of the mist. So. All right. I'm going to use my wonderful newfound ability. I don't know how long it lasts because the duration said it was a minute, but I don't know if that's how long I've accessed. The spell or if it's just a single burst. But either way, I'm going to make use of it while I can. And I'm going to target that parent right there, sir. And I'm going to cast a fifth rank thunder strike. Do it. Who revs up on the ground, generates some additional static electricity. I cast this. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. It's a basic reflex. I can't drop it in the check, right? No. All you cast it on this. Now you cast it. And then they're sinking. Click the reflex safe off. It's going to succeed. Basically. But yeah. But it'll still do damage. Okay. Yes. Now you roll damage. Roll damage. Yeah. Only one to 12. It's upcast to fifth level or fifth rank. So that would be five to 12. here i i got you it's thunder it's thunderstrike right it's got it it's got it okay and then plus another sonic damage which is gonna be hey hulky yeah i'll spare you some time as you strike it with your thunder strike the the crackling air comes around it and pierces it and as it does so both of the peritons howl in sync and they quickly begin to spiral around the battlefield wildly until they snap both of them into the tree and disappear oh oh fina thank you for as as that happens there is a a like slushing like a as the rot that connects astrid um oran's mother to tree literally just like goes from tangible to pure liquid and splashes on the ground um a moment later the various zones of uh terrible quickly dissipate the creepers and the ice storm left behind and you're lucky you did any point of damage to that thing because it lit they had a shared health pool and they had one hit point left between them for like a round oh my god which was oh which was fun um i was really because easy was like oh my god like thirst and there's two of them you could cast a second cut cage that was gonna happen that was gonna be a thing right and i was gonna put it on vina i was gonna put it on vina but you did it you defeated the parisian spirits which have now gone back into the tree uh oran's mother kind of like lets out a gasp as her eyes come back kind of the the vibrancy returning to them in fact everything sort of lifts in the area um and she falls down kind of sucking in her breath oran immediately is running to baldric okay as he's like and he kind of like does like as he reaches the baldric has does his like kind of power slide in a way and then immediately casts uh a heal from his staff on baldric let me get a nice little roll going not powerful but baldric you get healed for 17. get up and he's like are you okay mr baldric yeah i'm i'm here where was the well where'd they go it's like they've they seem to have disappeared i think we got him mr baldric oh great all right and baldrick's gonna stand up arnold jada system and as he begins to kind of walk over to the tree to assemble with everyone you don't need to actually assist him because baldrick has bounced back which means i don't increment my wounded for my first time exiting dying oh hell yeah i mean it's kind of worthless now because there's nothing to attack so you know whatever don't even worry about it uh yeah so he'll go over his orn uh comes all right he sees his mom is now still there right oh yeah he immediately rushes up to her checking on her and everything goes like he's like it's like mom mom and he uh just like begins to check on her he looks for signs of of the rod like see if it's still affecting her in some way um there there appears to be none of it instead you you see the the sort of serene uh visage of astrid who looks around her eyes blinking um it clearly drained but some vitality returning to her she looks over all of you but then her eyes focus orin on you orin orin mom you you have come why why would you do this thing well it's it's a long story but but but but here are my friends we've we've come over because he kind of balls up his eyes a little bit as water begins to feel up oh and he he's like it well he he's he's struggling for words he doesn't know where to start really i orin why did you do this i mean come back no why did you attack the spirits they were protecting me well they were trying to kill my friends and and they're here to help us you were i was i was holding it in me to prevent it from spreading you can't do that mom you can't you shouldn't sacrifice yourself that way what about dad and the rest of the village and everything like and there's also the dragon that has to be the source of it all it is everywhere i was protecting our people oh orin and she like puts her hand on your cheek oh my boy you are so kind you couldn't have known but now it will spread more from that beast and like as this is said the rest of you notice like the ground almost seems to be darkening as she speaks uh you orin she was holding it back he doesn't pay attention at all and he kind of goes closer to his mom and try and like hugs her and stuff he's like i'm sorry i didn't know i did but but we're here to help though like i i made friends when i was away and and and and we've been able to fight this so far and it's like we can fix it like you always go through this but like this is like you never know like a weapon like you're gonna get a life like a weapon like a weapon like a weapon like a weapon like a weapon like a weapon like a weapon like a weapon i don't know like you're not really asking for anything this land days weeks months it matters not it is everywhere i was doing what i could to hold it back hoping the old powers would return to us the old powers are sealed away and we are here to unbind them one of the keys lies with the dragon we are here to defeat it but your enchantments were powerful and oren in his love for you willed us not to destroy you we had thought you corrupted by the rot your husband knew not where you were or otherwise would not share but now you are unbound from now you are unbound from your sacrifice this plague is unbound and should you not wish to see your entire land swallowed by rot-infested sludge you must aid us in our quest to slay the rot-infested dragon i have held it in me it has weakened me greatly i will need long time to recover but if you were strong enough to defeat the guardians perhaps you can oppose that which has consumed our mountain's protector you've done all you can but it is not the dragon that is the source of this what is yes yes yes it is she pauses it is at the summit of the mountain our place of binding where two spirits are bound as one that is the place that was corrupted orin knows it well she like smiles kind of weakly it's where he formed his bond with his greatest friend at the mention of that uh gorgamonger kyle walks up and and obviously knowing his presence orin uh winces a bit and he's like i i saved him i found him mom oh my boy oh my boy oh my boy oh my boy oh my boy oh my boy oh my boy oh my boy oh my boy i see now what you have done i see now what you have done oh my boy i see now what you have done and you know what you must do and you know what you must do and you know what you must do his lips he his bottom lip quivers a bit his lips he his bottom lip quivers a bit his lips he his bottom lip quivers a bit as he kind of as he kind of as he kind of looks away in shame and just kind of shakes looks away in shame and just kind of shakes looks away in shame and just kind of shakes his head but his head but his head but but but i saved him like he's he's here but but i saved him like he's he's here but but but i saved him like he's he's here now and but but i saved him like he's he's here now and He still looks away, you know, not wanting to continue because he, deep inside, he knows he's wrong. But at the same time, he's justifying, using everything he can to justify of why he kept Gorgomon here. There's kind of like an exhalation. The dragon seeks to spread the corruption. Its old name is forgotten. The rot has taken it from us. The dragon guards the summit. You must bring... And she looks away from you, Oren, to the rest of the group. You must bring my child there. We will. Can you do this for me? If that's where we have to go, then we're going to do it. Whatever it takes. We'll get it done. Okay. I will stay here for a while, and then I will return to the village. I will be of no use to you in my state now. Here, if you need somewhere comfortable to stay for the evening, we can get you a cabin real quick. We need to rest. I would appreciate it. At least a day. Your guardians were powerful, and your enchantments took much of it out of us. Yeah, were they supposed to eat my heart like that? The fault lies, I think, in large part with me. I was so single-mindedly preparing myself to face the dragon, I did not imagine that we could fight foes of that variety. It's not your fault, Tani. Yes. They were made to disable foes, to stymie them, to ward them off. Yeah, I feel pretty warded. We're all tired. I'll get the cabin up. At least stay with us, Mom. At least. at least for this night of course I need rest the only way I could travel back to the village on my own now would be if I had a climbing kit laughter laughter laughter hopefully you have one it would be very convenient it'd be sick as hell if it had a grappling hook too that's awesome his broken grappling hook in his hand all the twine spooled out and broken the aperture's all fucked up yeah that'd be that'd be pretty sick right now wouldn't it and then he'll put it in his backpack laughing oh buddy I was really fighting to like not change the tone at all because I was like as soon as you're like we're going into a cabin I'm like alright this is where it can fucking change the tone would someone mention the cabin I had to really fight down for me going like yeah you can stay in the cabin but be careful it's haunted laughing laughing it would be like the best it'd be such a good interaction it'd just be ghost picturing constantly talking and your mom is the most polite person ever so she's just nodding and smiling it's like one of those perpetual motion missions laughing correct alright um let's find somewhere a little less rotten to put this up yeah yes I agree Rahua a moment sure Tannhauser Tannhauser is going to take Rahua just aside a bit out of earshot of Oren just lean in just say I need you to let me know examine Oren's mother we need to know if she's a lost cause if she is rot infested as as Picton once was we may need to prepare ourselves and that boy for the worst this journey is going to take much out of him I have of the same mind as you Tannhauser having seen someone so vibrant and kind taken perverted by this Ur-cancer that it was plight as Picton I will sigh I've not erred in what I said that I would do whatever it took to save this world and purge it but and Rahua will look back over at Oren I don't think anything will prepare him for what comes next if that is the case but I will not let him do what he has to do if that is the case but I will not let him do what he has to do if that is the case and I will pray that the winds of chaos blow fair that we don't resort to that is young you are the youngest of us but you have the benefit of being hardened by cosmic knowledge Oren in many ways is still a boy you will be hardened and grow stronger from this but only if we are there to protect you from this but only if we are there to protect you from this but only if we are there to protect you from this we will never leave him again nobody we left behind here not even him if it comes to it he may have to be the one to deal the parting blow I get the feeling in my gut and in my bones if you have anything particularly compelling to say to Gorgomunga if you have anything particularly compelling to say to Gorgomunga if you have anything particularly compelling to say to Gorgomunga I would consider doing it before we climb that summit. You know, here we are, after so long on this road. And I don't know if ever once we've heard anything from him besides an affirmation or a rejection. It's hard to make heads and tails of what he says. Thurston, I speak dinosaur. I love the oscillation here. Excellent. This is great. Yes, you do. Will dinosaur give me any sort of perhaps passing knowledge linguistically of Quirkamonger's wear over all of our journeys? There's something along those lines. That's so racist. No, dragons and dinosaurs are two very distinct groups. No, but it's like... It's like... It's like you speak Spanish and Italian. They're both romance language. You know? So you can kind of understand one if you only know the other. It's like it's not perfect, but you get... Like if, you know, a Spanish speaker didn't speak any Italian, but heard an Italian guy speak, he wouldn't know everything, but he'd get the gist of what the guy was trying to say. How deep are graves? Speaker... Speaker... Yeah? Have you... Genuine question. I'm not going to assume shit. I'm not going to assume shit here. I don't know. Do you know how to speak Italian? Have you taken Italian lessons? I've taken... I'm not a fluent Italian speaker. I know a few words, a few phrases. Okay. Like... I'm assuming you know more Spanish than you do Italian. No, I think I know more Italian than I know... No. Well, I did fail several Spanish courses in high school. Okay. Okay. I've got an English degree, but I'm not especially talented. I'm learning other languages. I mean, same, and also same. But I will say, as someone who knows both languages, not particularly fluent of Italian, yeah, there's some, like, there's some homological structures in the language. But... But no. They've got the same root words. Yes and no. There are definitely some false cognitions between the two. Speaker, speaker, those are two languages based on the same root. And you are trying to say that dinosaurs and dragons definitely have the same root. Well, this is actually... Fundamentally, you've fallen into my spider's trap now, because now I get to ask Thurston with some authority, which came first in the world of Tide? Dinosaurs or dragons? Okay, you fucker. I knew you were building to that. I knew... I knew as a narrative person, you were, like, waiting, sitting there with the Uno reverse card of, ah, but this is a... Fictional make-believe world, and so the rules could be different here to suit my fucking reality. All right, all right, all right. You know what? There's only one fair way to sort this. There's only one fair way to sort this. Make him take 100 damage. Say the word, Thurston. Say the word. Tell me what to do. Mm-hmm. Zoran, make a poll. Um... Uh, do... Do you have any mods in chat? A poll? Yeah, yeah, make a poll. Jers, make a poll. Which came first? That's right, Jers! That's right! Get on your pants, wielder! Wake up, Jers! Yeah, wake up, Jers. No matter which way this vote goes, the democratic principles that are being on display here, I'm quite proud of, and I salute you. I appreciate Easy yelling at Jers to get on it, though they share the same mod badge. Stares at Easy. But also, Easy is in my good books, because he suggested casting the cuck cage again, and I was like, Ooh, you're going to the bad place, Easy. Doesn't Easy do enough? Yeah, that's true. Easy does a lot. We all appreciate Easy here. We love Easy. We love Easy. Easy, put Googly Eyes on Baldrick. I'm so tired. Come on, now. Well, I think, uh, now that the poll gets made, I think now's a good time for a break. All right. So, you spend the night in Picture and Cozy Cabin. All of you, uh, there, there is no, there is no Spirit of Picture and Squelch for tonight. Instead, it is a, um, mostly somber, quiet affair. Um, much of it is Oryn's mother, Astrid, who, uh, asks so many questions about your journey, Oryn, and what's happened. He's telling her the whole shebang. What happened that night when Gorgomonger got abducted, abducted. How he tracked them down, how he tried his best to track them down, to save them, you know, journeyed all across the sea, made his way to Outset, ate some people, and then got thrown in prison. Then found all these goobers and have been going on an adventure and stuff. He tries, he tries to leave out, actually, I would like to roll this, uh, roll a deception. Unhibit number in your head, in terms of if he can hide of like, and I died. And he tries not to. I'm going to emphasize it, if you can probably tell, I'm going to get a plus-4 of the deception. Seven, plus-4 of 11, so you can take it or leave it there. Uh, so he basically, you know, he tries like, like, uh, and, and, and he continues on, but he, he's praising every single one of his friends. Like he's saying that Veena has become, uh, has grown into an excellent leader, has really, you know, grown, like, has basically grown, grown into be an amazing captain and, uh, leader in a sort, in a certain way. sorceress or or swordswoman i don't know how to is it sword stress or just sword whatever swordswoman yeah i don't know the right term um there's just how much vena has come along in her journey rahula even though he is new to this world has been just a font of just enjoyments seeing him grow along long and being able to show him basically this world all the good and the bad of it and having pretty much his mentality and everything else just be able to enhance the group in so many ways and protect them and not to mention seeing just some someone and something that is so unique and interesting to or into where he's greatly appreciated who is a friend tan houses all the trials and tribulations he's gone through you know seeing him you know finally having his revolution in two ways in one uh in trying to believe and in such passion about his rhetoric uh to be able to do so sorry i'm just going to gloss you guys for a sec and who has basically been consistent in his drive to pretty much destroy his targets to bring down the tyrant's guild and as much as he feels reluctant to basically go go for things he has been a stalwart companion to his friends always being there regardless of his grumbling uh you know even to the much of instead of kicking everyone out of his home he begrudgingly yelled at them instead but demon is already they knew that like knew that he likes them probably you guess he has no idea but regardless or and always hopes that he can find happiness at the end of his journey you know to finally get the satisfaction and finally to get uh finally get to where he he has been aiming for this entire time because he believes that uh baldric himself has gone through so much trouble in his life and that's one thing he always hopes for him is you know that he eventually finds happiness in his life and so that's why he kind of goes through he explains gorgomonger a bit all what happened everything else and and picturing squelchfoot everybody else and so he goes through the whole shebang and he goes like and yeah and and now we arrived here because all the old powers have been well they've been captured and we you know we fought a very you know angry lady and very angry fire guy and and now we've been going to place to place trying to find these basically just fonts and memories and things of power and and basically we got brought here mom oh well you've you've accomplished so much say and she kind of is just like nodding and looks over at everyone else and you've helped look after my boy and for that i'm eternally grateful i can't do much but perhaps i could prepare a little meal um if you find yourself capable of that you've just undergone a tremendously uh she walks outside of the hut and begins digging in the dirt removing worms he's been making mom's cooking oh actually that's really cute oh i never make it as good as you mom but but he kind of like claps excitedly yeah and then she like totally casts create food which turns it into this beautiful feast oh she blinked 100 100 she takes worms and and like dirt and like create food and then it just turns into like this like beautiful feast with like venison and and fine like spirits and everything else i don't have a hero point but i must you know i don't have a hero point but i must you know i don't have a hero point but i must you know i don't have a hero point but i must i must ask for this to be a narrative i must ask for this to be a narrative i must ask for this to be a narrative declaration oran for all his life has declaration oran for all his life has declaration oran for all his life has never known how she's done this never known how she's done this never known how she's done this she always thinks she's like so good she always thinks she's like so good she always thinks she's like so good but cook that she can do it instantly but cook that she can do it instantly but cook that she can do it instantly he never knew there's a spell for it so he never knew there's a spell for it so he never knew there's a spell for it so he always thinks like i don't know how he always thinks like i don't know how you do it always mom thank you and he might eat yeah oh my god it's like literally like someone who like perfectly cooks a steak versus like doesn't cook a steak except one step further because the end product here is just so fucking much different oh that was a hell of a comparison i gotta say thurston i like that it's like a person who cooks a steak versus a person who doesn't cook a steak yes like i'm sorry i just i like i like that image i like that image is like ah well you know i cooked this steak oh but i didn't here you go or feeding us the druid equivalent of a raw steak a steak down this is good news we can be bees Baldrick will you can be a bee. Yeah, you'll live for 30 years You could be a pet Or in this time time trying to cook us a beautiful feast Yeah Change the virtue in the helps make the food Orin think he has been doing like a He's just like yeah, that's what I've been doing assholes. Oh my god Oops, I never could quite get the he swallows his food But I've always tried my best I'm grateful to have food Ming I'm going to I'll walk up to Orin's Court Killed and I'm gonna reach into my pocket pull out a scroll. You should really write your recipe down Okay You can add create food as a second level spell in your spell book tan hazard Yay! I Was tired of cooking all the time Thurston I want to inquire Can you make can you make Orin the only the only practitioner in time of the Create dirt and worm spell that requires food as a reagent Beautiful! Done! Thanks beautiful Lovely lovely As Orin has answered you Yeah so she brings out this beautiful feast for all of you Feast town down again Yeah Avina's gonna be just kind of nibbling idly over at it and she's gonna sidle over to Baldrick and just You doing okay? No I am not that's why I'm in the open I did it Yes Well you know what I'm gonna be honest I think I I'm not that good I'm not very good at fighting I'm not good at fighting I'm not gonna be able to move Yeah I'm no good I'm not gonna be able to? Yeah I'm not gonna be able to know what's going on I think you're gonna be here I'm gonna have fun Alright Sorry I'm not sure Okay I'll take a bow Why? Because илиn's back He's gone of them but uh yeah i couldn't see it past the fog and stuff got a little worried i didn't die so you got that that's good it's uh not a feeling i'd wish on someone else i can imagine and she kind of nods pats him on the shoulder felt good for a moment or two to not have to do anything well like i said after all of this is over hopefully you can get to not do anything without dying i'm gonna say in the meantime we've got a lot of to do i was gonna say came pretty close to not having to do anything came very very close but i didn't and i'm back again you should probably focus on eating something vena since you actually have the opportunity to eat food instead of you know dirt and worms to help soak up alcohol true you think we should have taken that the sponsorship no it's an abomination death is supposed to happen and we're not gods we get one life to do what we need to do if they wanted to put the gods already put their finger on the scales for us to get this far now it's up to us to prove that we were worth that at the time and now that we're better than that we're better than that we're better than that we're better than that we're better than that we're better than that she kind of nods yeah glad you feel that way even after getting close it's uh you know it's just a feeling i've got itching in the back of my head when things start getting dire especially when we've got to deal with that dragon and whatever the hell comes next and uh beyond that exactly what's gonna happen at the top of that mountain tanny made his sacrifice i made mine pretty sure we know what's gonna happen with orin he's keeping that low so that orin doesn't have to like rehash that feeling he's just smack him he's enjoying the noise everyone's got to make a choice incidentally i've been getting it this far without drawing too much attention to it i can't see what you can't around the time i went down and hit the dirt i saw me I saw my vision fade. It hasn't come back. Oh, shit, you need to tell Rahua, or Oryn, once he's finished stuffing his face. That's... shit. I'm a little too tired right now, and again, not having to engage with it is as much relaxation as I'm gonna get. I'll deal with it in the morning. Alright. You promised me you're gonna, or else I'm calling him for you. What am I going to do? Am I going to... Listen, I'd rather see it coming. I'm not about to sit here in the dark and just wait for it to happen. Fair enough. I just also know you're not the type who likes to ask for help. Dina. I want to see. I just don't want to do it right now. Fair enough. You, uh, get some rest, then. I imagine that, um, Oryn's gonna need a lot of support the further we get up that mountain. He looks up to you, you know. I'm aware. I think he's right, too. I think you all have opinions of me that I could debate, but it's not my place to, I guess. I'm just here to uphold that... I'm here to sit on top of that pedestal you guys like to put me on. You can argue with me all you want, Baldrick, but I'm pretty persuasive. Baldrick is gonna, like, tilt his head towards her. I can think of many situations in which you were not. That's my argument. I would say touche, but come on now. Trying to be nice to you? You clonk his helmet a couple of times. Hey, you pick on blind people often? Shit, come on. Go to sleep. Yeah, may as well. It's late. You guys enjoy the food. I've had all I need to. At least I assume that I ate the food and not the candle. Well, if it tasted like food and not a candle. I have no idea. Granted, we're pretty used to eating worms. Yeah, that was gonna be my point. Right. And Baldrick is gonna get up and very carefully maneuver over to the area that he has claimed as his bed. Yeah. I'm just... I'm sorry. I'm just taking the oars. It's like, oh, Mr. Baldrick, here's some of your stuff I found on the ground when you were gone. And he, like, throws it at you, but it's just hits you on the head. You just can't get it to get into your head. Yeah, his helmet's gonna rattle and he's gonna, like, stumble, but not pay it any mind and just accept it as people throwing things at him and he's just gonna go to bed. Based. Oh, well, I guess he didn't need it. Good night, Mr. Baldrick. Night. Okay, that's Mr. Baldrick, mom. I wanted to put something out. Chat, we did already try inflicting damage and then reverting the damage. We did that with Tugbert, Veena. That didn't work. But what if we try it again? You don't get to rip my eyes out and then heal me. No, you just have to say that you're a minion. Aww. He has to say that he's a minion and then blow him up. Rahua, I still have all of my bombs on me. I will blow up and I will take you with me. No, you won't. My main goal. Nuh-uh. I got a bunch of dice. I got a bunch of dice. I've got a bunch of dice to throw at you. Look at it this way. If Rahua does that to you and everything else, at least Tannhauser has the spell to delay his consequences, so at least he can survive.
