versatile resource their labor materials and food all in one yeah true stop sleeping on the job yeah i'm not fucking sleep on a job i have to make a fucking example oh right you know sensor bars yeah it's like oh guys or and i love this is why we couldn't get a wendy's sponsorship i love that you have just the corner of the screen visible like you're a substitute teacher who's trying to put something on the overhead but doesn't notice yeah that you only have put on a small portion of it it's a really great feeling and it reminds me of my elementary school days please fucking fix it now hold up there's a please fix and fuck it there's a why are you focusing on this dot this is why i said it's like the overhead experience because every single overhead i i got to look at shit on in my elementary school days had just like this little fleck or speck just somewhere on the screen projection it's like why the hell is it like this like we have a we have a mole on our on our logo hi mark he's beautiful i'm zon the bear i'm your host for this evening i'm playing the strix druid oran the lovable little guy who basically tries to feed everybody worms but one thing to note chat that we all leveled up we all leveled up uh we're all leveled nine now thank you thurston for your gracious experience points and uh thank you god that's right that's right thank you god for this please god and uh and remember chat if you're watching this live which we appreciate you watching live and so we're live on twitch and youtube at the same time but if you're on twitch we're trying to get it fixed for youtube we'll just wait for the announcement on that you can help us up if you understand what the bars are at the bottom or you don't those are bit bars those are not our hp uh basically we do a hero point system which is also default and pathfinder second edition which is the system that we play on basically you can basically help give hero points to us to help us out in the game but of course if we uh mess up or so it's a lot worse for us because we have to deal with complications so we're trying to break in a car outside now basically we have to deal with complications which pretty much means people on patreon can submit complications and really mess us up so if you're only help out the show come over live come help us out in the game try not to let us die and of course if you can't make it live but still want to hear the complications you can put into a big pool if they show up is at patreon.com forward slash narrative declaration to try and make us suffer but of course thurston yes what adventure or thing do you have for us today adventure or thing yeah it's one or the other you know if you feel like phoning it the fuck in that's up to you yeah you know i've actually decided that uh we're gonna do charades for today's game let's do the high school championship top rpgs where i get it's a jekyll it's a jekyll a jekyll it's a jekyll said thing i was thinking like an object so i'm like thurston show us the creature yeah just open up just nebulous box with some horrible thing inside you can't even call like any particular species or thing it's it's a thing it's all it is it is an object we do love we do love a creature here at raw grunt say for yourself tanhouser wants the plane thrower tanhouser wants the what that was a john carpenter's the thing joke by the way all right well the question it's a great movie um there's also a really good like x files that's like very similar anyways um i've been watching the x files again okay everybody who wants to recap for hero point nope all right nobody wants all right i'm smart you know what why is vena's name spelt wrong now is it i'll i'll i'll look how did you do that did you have to redo the overlay i use an old file oh no try to do it now it's wrong hold up i'll fix it now now i'm just wondering did that happen for the last game too did we know it was right the last game i'm just stupid hold up we're gonna make no headway today it's hold on everyone calm down calm down i'm about to get a hero point i'm about to do the recap good okay this recap by the way is sponsored by wendy's if you love wendy's sign up to become a wendy's reward member i don't have a wendy's it's free wendy's food we don't have a wendy's what happened last time on rot grind sponsored by wendy's uh we don't have a wendy's sponsorship the party which ironically is also sponsored but not by wendy's by a lesser power um continued on their adventure like a burger king party through through the mansion you know that's a lovely edit you got there uh this is where the bear um as as we continued we bounded up stairs um going up the stairs we encountered a series of doors doors that baldrick sponsored by wendy's and vena also sponsored by wendy's decided to take a look through and see which ones were locked and we noticed that there were presences on the other side of the doors so when they came back and delivered the news we trusted them like you can trust wendy's whenever you order online or on the app one of the trusted delivery partners look it's like i'm gonna find out all the god sponsorships are actually just fast food sponsorships it's like i'm revived in the fucking mcdonald's fryer now the when they came to us and we decided to move forward at that point there was a series of a sense of momentum as these varying figures decided to try and take a take a slice out of us like from a pretzel baconator or a loaded nacho single cheese i'm calling i'm cutting forward we've spent too much time all right we're taking this thing basically we entered inside of the mansion and went through several with several doors exploring more and more we had another engagement with our lovely raccoon fellow and as and after we went upstairs we got ambushed by several of the what were they called one more time thurston the ninja folk you do yeah those things and we found out that they were not just humans they were like rot creatures of some sort that created puddles whenever they expired and i believe us last where we left off still above the second story of the mansion on the sort of overlay fog was at the bottom of the uh of the foyer and we were just trying to figure out uh where next to go yeah um okay so i like that chad is now talking about the concept of negative hero points that's good um we also arrived into the bedroom that's right right to the bedroom oran acquired a tugbert plush and we find that it was uh sandal declan's old childhood room if i remember correctly and uh we investigated various things and hints of like old old fairy tales and old things regarding the fey or fey creatures if i remember right yeah you found various um like children's book and fairy tale books um some of both uh the black papacy of golgotha um sky pirate books uh fey fey you know little little fey books talking about tooth fairies and other uh creatures and then you also found a um another another um you found the adventurer and the assassin which was where we ended up leaving um last session you got this kind of fun handout here of a portion of a uh of of that of that that kind of fairy tale book and uh we will begin here um oran give yourself a hero yay do i do i yeah speaker speaker speaker wait wait wait wait see you're gonna you're ruining because i was gonna say speaker you get a hero point and your hero point is brought to you by i'm aiming a gun at you i guess we'll just have to have it your way yeah exactly i guess the fuck up i will murder you zoran i know i know you don't enjoy this bit i know you don't enjoy this bit but personally me i'm loving it always fresh never frozen i hate all of you this campaign is fucking over man something's in the air today are we good do we need a second yeah i don't know what makes you think things are okay the campaign's over jack of the box all right i gotta go look at the zedic character sheet it's time to bring the pants back all right guys i'm gonna go uh i'm gonna go to the local uh diner i'll see you later oh the local diner yeah i love drinking so as we begin um you've just made these discoveries you'd also found a secret door leading out of sandal beckland's washroom um and that was where we left off the fog is now dissipated with the defeat of uh amulnay the the leader uh supposed leader of the guild dual assassins in this in this area so i'm gonna pass it over to you on how you wish to proceed right arc had a great thing in chat oh no it's just five guys go fuck yourself all right that one was good hero point for that job good job arc uh good good job yeah that gets a hero age of empires to start the game already all right so yeah i think we have uh we haven't gone into the rooms that some of the assassins emerged out of like this and over here correct yes so you haven't gone to to either of the like the the northern uh well sorry you know the i'm doing the the the eastern rooms this is like not lined up correctly because it's not in yeah yeah this this is technically north here um but yeah so you haven't gone to either of the eastern rooms here there's sort of a closed door over here um the assassins have sort of come out of guest rooms the door uh to your immediate south that one there has been blown open by a tactical coring charge um yeah you kind of have the uh the pick of the pick of the litter so to speak on where you want to i'm going to the alchemy room because there was alchemy and i want to look at it oh yes yeah before before agony sets in and the rooms set themselves aflame once more i'm gonna peek in here all right it's just a bathroom i wash my hands and i'm gonna go out with uh baldrag baldhauser okay baldhauser i don't want baldhauser the people's to pay oran's going to hold on to his tugbert plush with glee oh you like that one yeah it reminds me of something i had never mind he just kind of sheepishly kind of like turns away oh come on plushies are an all ages thing you never stop liking things that are soft are you sure about that what do you sleep on a rock well actually you're you're a tree so i don't even sleep i i like put myself in the ground or i just kind of shut down you're right you're you're you're the bed okay you're the wrong person to talk to about this yeah you're right i'm walking away i don't want to interrupt the rp here but i i want to point out something that immediately came to my mind as i opened up this door and i think it's because you fuckers keep talking about wendy's uh i saw this like table in the center that appears to have a book and like what it was obviously like a paint bucket in it with a paintbrush and my first thought was damn that's a lot of ketchup in a paintbrush to go on that sandwich anyway i'm gonna investigate the alchemy room the new title for this episode oh fuck a sink i better wash my hands and watch bonus yeah watch watch bonus okay um god damn it uh do you want to give me a perception check as you enter so you enter this room uh for audio listeners um there the walls here are lined with um wooden shelves there's kind of um i would say waste by uh tables that are loaded up with alchemical substances there's some files mortars and pestles various substances books are sort of sprung about there's some paper on a and a stone table in the center of the chamber along with some like alchemicals that have been sort of smashed together um i assume yeah a tenhouser you are detecting magic wub wub wub wub wub wub wub wub i will give you a 28 on that perception check okay yeah so once again a couple of things going you're able to find several um alchemical components and similarly related goods um you're can you give me a crafting check to sort of just review some of the alchemicals your alchemical substances is that your look happily let me take a look sure uh let's see i got the alchemist goggles and a chemical savant yeah both both will apply uh that's a 41 i think that's the first 40 we've breached oh yeah um so you are able to do like a very quick efficient analysis of everything this room um the alchemical supplies here are of incredible incredible quality as you're going through this um you guess there is no less than 750 gold pieces worth of raw materials in me ah excellent finally um so i'm just going to kind of like add this as a treasure because it's not gold but it's like alchemicals oran um is uh sorry oran's walking in and he comes up to one of the things like what's this mr bodrick and he picks up one of the vials and starts sniffing it smells weird yeah that's uh that's uh that's guano he falls over no okay he can't stand the smell of poop i can't take it no more um he falls okay uh there are a couple other items in here that seem to uh you know take you take immediate note of them as you kind of start looking yeah presumably just journal right yeah yeah yeah there there's there's another another torn piece of paper um there are several other consumables i'm going to start moving them over onto the sheet um there is some wyvern poison extract hmm um there there there is what you can see um is like the um the dust salvaged from the remains of a destroyed lich you're a comedian you know that i am i'm such a comedian um i'm gonna give this context to chat real quick uh i was pointing out how when i was built working on my character and path builder how like you can have access to under poisons like an item like a poison that is made out of the destroyed remains of a lich and i i was i kind of offhandedly commented to thurston man that's weird who just has that right and now thurston is trying to get me in a gotcha and he succeeded and i'm furious good it's good um so along with that um there is another object here it is a um a metallic tube with a complex array of lenses and prisms you recognize this as an item called a sun dazzler a sun dazzler you say excuse me while i look up what that is yeah i've just put it in there it's um it's an alchemical item basically um you can like load load it with a sun rod um and you can basically like burn the sun rod dust to have a focus like 30 foot cone of light um that creatures have to make a save uh while they're in or they become dazzled or possibly even blinded oh cone of flashbang basically very nice exactly yeah yeah just a lot of different like varying alchemical alchemical substances in here but the the primary was the the like sheer amount of raw materials it's only about two bulk worth of materials so you're able to like gather it together for for loot related purposes um with your crit success though you recognize that um like between this the the lich dust the poison there's a lot of um there's a lot going on with um things related to like human tolerance or like mortal humanoid tolerance i should say like testing out what a body is capable of trying to put it through some traumas um yeah like see like getting that sort of sense then you see that there is another uh paper uh which i will do the uh fun thing here i will show you this but i will also um make sure that you have text entry here uh someone wants to go and read that you can go yeah bulger's reading it yeah yeah let's see here found some new documents here which text is this uh entry eight you should see it we do not have entry eight text available that one's like boop thank you boop good work now there we go it might be partnerships baldrick is going to read out to the rest of the the group whoever is accounted for nearby i've learned so much in so little time the subject's resilience was astounding and though i had to leave it behind the discoveries were enough to point me in the proper direction baldrick's going to tilt his head towards orin there's no doubt the effects of the rock can be controlled it's just a matter of the proper application of necessary alchemical treatments manner is too obvious a location so the under levels will need to suffice my benefactor has completed their studies in the family archives below and seem quite content with the completion of our arrangement their arrangements into the ancient archives we stored below is of little concern to me they are mere fairy tales like those sandal engrossed himself with as a child to begin the integers blowing sure my long my longevity my longevity huh interesting baldrick's gonna pocket that note does he uh as he inspects hmm i have a bad feeling that we're not gonna like what we find down there well whatever's down there isn't going to like us much either well baldrick's going to roll his shoulder and you can hear a a faint popping sound repeatedly as he reaches the same spot i don't know about you but i don't think we're in much of a good position to go tackling that no if it's anything like what gorgamunger was then we ought to take the opportunity to regroup luckily it seems like if he's been performing these experience experiments on himself for a while and hasn't busted out of the house yet we can probably spare at least a little bit and the fact that we've taken care of his guards i hate to admit it but you are correct staying here much longer is not advisable but when we come back we need to ensure this place is buried in the rubble um now thurston earlier you said that i sensed magic that was presumably the ingredients in this room right um so yeah you would see that some of the uh like the the the items that have been discovered but the the pulse of magic is you're focusing this is all the alchemicals you've seen are actual chemicals they're not magical the pulse which means that the magic item must not be in this room but there are other rooms that are in kind of the area of effective magic go ahead and take a look around i'm just gonna pocket everything in here that sounds advisable be sure to dig through any drawers you might find save any documents anything could be of help i already know i'm gonna start uh ripping through the place trying to find uh the source of the magic sure where do you want to start uh i'll start in this big ass bedroom yeah so you head up uh to to the the room adjacent to the alchemical lab a large sort of austere uh bedroom as you as you come in you can see that uh there is like a a walk-in washroom in here um that is visible in the northeast corner you can also see that there is a a fine couch uh a table with a paper on it um like a nightstand um there is a finally made bed but as you walk in can you give me a perception check please i would love to give you a perception check to me thank you also you're no longer enfeebled yeah my man's about to fall in the trap door yay i have clicked roll perception like 600 times uh yeah everything popped out yeah that's why yeah you want to pop it in all right that is a 27 at 27 you'll say all right so as you come in you can see you see the paper but what you notice is you take your first step in here is that there is a fine sheen of dust on everything um as though this room hasn't been disturbed quite some you know chemical lab certainly but this room this room was not um but it's it's not like it's been abandoned for you know years or something but there's like a sheen of dust that has risen here possibly weeks maybe even a few months of just complete disuse um as you walk up you can see a a note the note itself however stands out on the nightstand because it's scorched like the edges of it look like they've been like caught to a flame um there's also it's very clear that the the sort of like partially crumpled paper um is on top of something just because of how it's sitting it's almost strangely angled up like something maybe a half inch thick is underneath the paper uh sure yeah i'll take a look at that paper and i'll uh uh whatever accoutrements are nearby it yeah sure you pick it up as you pick up the piece of paper you can see that there is an old bronzed key underneath it i'm going to share with you all right i will share with you the text too so that kateman while you were away in the solitude i completed my review of the documents you so graciously allowed me access to in your familiar archives know that the information i attained would be invaluable to secure in the future of outset and that you were no small part of a far wider plan which have changed the very face of our world i leave you to continue your affairs here in the manor i suspect your successes in the solitude will embolden you i also hope that my agent within the solitude did not impede your efforts or interfere with your tests should you be setting yourself up to attempt the procedures that we discussed during our prior visitations i once again implore you to be cautious in such actions the rot is not something that can be analyzed by mortal minds eventually turn what you do or the ramifications could be beyond the remit of science still i wish you all the best in your efforts i shall begin enacting the final stages of my plan based on the information i uncovered in your archives do i recognize this handwriting you don't it's very it's very clearly um like finely written like it's it's definitely someone who's had like an upbringing with like formal writing i see so caitman was not acting alone was another operative and an agent within the solitude sound like anyone we know might be the children to blaze they may not be the the um what's his name top hat guy father lord lord lord yes it sounds like it probably wasn't penned by a lord but that might have been the agent it's a possibility but to my recollection didn't a lord turn out to have a disdain for the rot well can we ever really trust what that guy says no well we also found this key and i reveal it thusly yeah you draw you draw the the key out it it definitely has some kind of magical um energy to it as you touch it um object whispers um yeah absolutely um yeah you know what also give me an uh girl arc arcana test as well yay i like arcana more than a cult yeah hey that wasn't a two that was an 18 that's a 37 ooh okay um one sec so you you begin casting casting your your object whispers on it and you you try to sort of use the key as a as a focal point it it does ping back key to the sacristy sub levels the beginning of madness begins with but a single step this is the key to get to the lower levels make sure to take that so maybe we'll be the only ones uh who can get down there in the meantime while we take our nap yes um i'll i'm gonna send in another magic pulse do i get a sense there are any other magical items within that uh periphery yeah you get a sense there's like one other thing that's probably about some there's one more magical object that we haven't found we should locate it promptly oren points to the door that would uh indicate to north of the orientation here any taps for who uh and also motions divina like have we checked that door yet uh i don't think so i believe we have who will go through the door chenhauser is there chenhauser is always there and he was there chenhauser was there and also chenhauser horrible back away from the door and go like uh being tug will keep watch i got it you keep you keep tug where it's safe it's barrels various supplies as you open up the the door looks like these are more preservative supplies a lot of them uh appear to like have spoiled there's some kind of um some kind of food stuff that has long since spoiled here um yeah anything that jumps out at me is something that might have a particular use or is it all just kind of spoiled food want to uh want to give me one of them uh them sweet sweet perception checks i i would love to i would love nothing more okay cool then then do that seems pretty good uh that's that's not exceptional but it's a 21 21 okay um you start you start going through checking around trying to find something you're not able to find anything amongst all the barrels here um it looks like it's just mostly like preservatives like what they would have kept for like backup food supplies maybe in here but a lot of it's spoiled anything that could have spoiled has spoiled well i don't see shit it's uh seems to be mostly spoiled food and extra supplies are you certain you can give it a look see if you prefer sure i do have a special eye you do have a very special eye uh oh you have a perception check as well yeah yeah 35 nice yeah so rahua you come into this chamber and start um start doing a bit more of an in-depth analysis kind of looking about you do notice something along the wall there is what appears to be um a brick that's out of place something that like it looks like from the wall one of the the stone bricks here is slightly like almost like an inch or so just just pushed out hello and rahul will go over to the displaced brick and with his spindly little metal fingers on his one hand will reach into it and try and pry the brick out yeah okay okay okay um so as as you do like you're able to to pull it out and there's like small alcove in the wall um this looks old like a part of the part of like the stone work that's been here a while um but then it it seems to like fall down into darkness like it goes in then there's like a i want to say that the brick is about six inches thick so you pull out the six inch brick put it down or all brick uh about a foot wide and then like it goes in for about a foot and then does a 90 degree angle down and there's something like almost like a chimney in the wall oh is there any way to see how far down it goes i mean like you could arrange something if you had like a mirror and a light or if you wanted to like stick your hand in and kind of reach down orin comes up behind rahua he was like what'd you find rahua it looks to be there's some kind of secret passage or at least a secret alcove here it drops off something well quite far from the looks of things do you have anything reflective on orin no no that's tan hauser's thing but i know what i can do to help out i transform into a bug okay bug time oh thank you he eats him yeah you're like that what like what's that one 3d animation of that one kid it's a fucking monster house yeah i just oh no leaves just absolutely eats me uh yeah i'll cast pest form uh okay it's called pest form yeah it is it's which let me uh i guess it'll be it's just a little guy yeah a little focus spell and uh for this i can turn up i did twice uh basically you turn uh you at heighten level four you can turn to a flying creature it says it's a bird which grants you a flying speed of 20. uh i can basically turn into like a cat insect lizard or rat you decide the specific type of animal so is it a rat or praying mantis has no effect but just to keep things simple i will um i'll turn into like a little sparrow a little sparrow at least something they can kind of see and i'll kind of like like right up into and just kind of like look in yeah sure um you you peer down um i assume like there's some like light source behind you or what actually i'll turn to a spider with chat's recommendation thank you chat yeah like kind of like you can see that about six inches past there's a drop and nestled near the bottom um you see the the face of a female figure peering up at you um but her face is covered by two um two straps of of cloth that go around her eyes and as you're looking at this you're you're clearly shocked like i don't know your spider form skitters back oh that's one of my fears i hate that yeah that that it's not actually like a woman but like it's an engraving on the front of a book and there's a tome that has this cover that is like staring up at you blindedly basically say i really i really the information to rahua uh i should go like uh with my little spider i'm like maybe if we get a rope in pest form i have no fucking clue it doesn't specify so i assume yes but uh if anything else uh or we'll try to communicate going like yeah we might want to get a rope down there and he'll try to figure it out is there room enough like if i come out of pest form would i have room to maneuver down there or like like you could you can see that like the the the bandage like the wrappings over the the sort of indented um face on the front of the book uh are cloth and they look to be fairly sturdy like you could probably go down there's like a spider and like put rope between it and basically like pull the thing up that way okay i would like to try that then if that's okay yeah please please please uh give me i don't know uh acrobatics or athletics probably maybe thievery um a lot of options there let's see uh we'll go with the highest one i have acrobatics yeah uh that is a 19 for a total of 35 it did do soaring shape so i'll take that minus away to 34. yeah so you you pull this up um and then there is there is this yeah this this this tome that kind of hits the floor with a resounding thud as uh as you do that triumphantly uh so it's outside of the hole and stuff now right uh yeah yeah okay uh oren turns back to normal and uh he kind of like like dust off the book and he'll open it just being curious what's inside uh uh yeah so as you as you open it up um you can see that the the book has um several pages of text that are in kind of a like strange almost spidery script language um it's it's not one you're familiar with could you read this he like turns the book over to oh look can i determine what length this is can i give you like a call knowledge or yeah what skill do you want to use uh i would like to use uh maybe arcana if it seems to be yeah yeah absolutely uh what what is your what is your train status in arcana i am i am trained so i have a train okay so if you're trained you you pick this up and you realize that this is like arcane gripping um this would be similar to like what a spell book would have um as you read it you can see that the first few pages are um perhaps more of a um like a a primer like they aren't spells themselves and then as you get further in you can see that there's listings for arcane spells interesting or it looks to be that we found a spell book oh if only we had a wizard if if only we had a wizard if anybody we knew who knew arcane magic hi just emerges from the shadows looking for a wizard for the return his book i know just give that to me i was like oh okay well we gotta return it back it's it's probably expired at the library what no have you ever returned anything you've ever stolen that'd be a lot of things he kind of like kicks the ground a little bit no no no no this is a spell book in the evil manor and as it happens i have some wizardly training perhaps i could make use of it is that a wizard you're a weird robot eyes like light up he thinks you're way cooler now he's like oh he's a wizard wizard no do a magic flow oh uh set my head on fire yeah yeah yeah it says hellfire uh all right i i i cautiously cast produce flame to set your head on fire whoa does he set my head on fire um give me a 14 damage because yeah he sets your head on fire whoa he is a wizard oh that's so cool i've never saw you stab things well yes but you would notice how when i stab things there's lightning most of the time i thought you're making him effects what you thought i was just doing effects for fun he kind of looks down seriously yeah what about those times i i cast haste on various members of the party or or made my well i i suppose i am a robot you can't quite i thought it's your robot powers yeah well i thought you just gave people stimulants i thought you were like a drug addict yeah wait you've been thinking the entire time i'm a drug addict yeah i mean you always talk about revolution i mean you have very lofty ideals you're constantly in a murderous rage frankly i just thought you were on a bender yeah i thought you were hopping stuff the entire time with the tube that goes to your face and stuff i'm just kind of jealous not gonna lie and you never i you thought that i was a serial drug abuser and you never attempted an intervention well we we thought you were happy and we thought that'd be you know what you know you you like kill people who go against what you want i'm not gonna fucking get in the way of that if i were a drug addict yes i might try to kill you for it fair enough i suppose well yes big surprise i am magic you hear you hear a shout from down the hallway as baldrick is still shoveling things into his pack and he hears you guys having this asinine conversation what the what are you guys talking about baldrick you knew i was magic right yeah well why didn't these two because they're stupid you knew he was a wizard why didn't you tell us a wizard i'm not quite a wizard i've had wizardly training oh you're not a wizard then well i mean if you're sort of a wizard can you set my head on fire is that something you could do i can't wait to wash my hands with you people for who will remember is that his head is set on fire and is still taking persistent fire damage oh my gosh you are a wizard you take one d four wow so cool r rd pats the fire out yeah i guess another four hit points you're rolling maxes speaker you're rolling maxes you know i i teleport all of the time it's like one of the major things i do that you're just i thought that's what magicians do yeah would you like explain goku just moving too fast to see i'd like you to explain to me the difference between a magician and a wizard oren thinks real hard that's a good question actually thurston uh can i use my last coring charge to cut this conversation short and blow a hole in the floor so we can leave i mean sure is the fog still down there no no the fog the fog is gone i've got my whole dungeon ahead of me no you don't you stupid bitch the fog is there wait wait it's like yeah no no no no the fog the fog remains until we decide what the difference between a wizard and a magician so hang on no no no hold on hold on no i'm not letting you do that to me it's a oren leaves the room kind of like that's an empty coring charge i imagine being over who i'll leave the room uh and in orange like i can't believe he's a wizard he's so cold i know he's so cool he still kind of puts me on edge a little bit but he's a wizard so i guess he can get away with it he's our friend though i also appreciate you yelled right by vena like hey baldrick did you know like vena's standing there completely bypass vena vena you you knew i was magic right he's a wizard he's a wizard it's so cool i'll be honest i thought it was science explosion explosion uh there's a detonation there's a small bomb that goes off and destroys a small portion of this it's over what's in the book mr tannhauser that's a great question as a wizard i feel like i'm or a magician you weren't really a wizard well it's kind of complicated anyway as as whatever i am i'm going to roll some nice well i wouldn't say that i that's a one of our fellow chat members said i should have taken my adderall for this stream i listen man i drank coffee before the stream and now i got one of them adhd headaches you know i i feel like this simpsons bit where like otto is pointing to this like things like whoa man you guys made a talking dog what were you on when you created this we just finished eating a rotisserie chicken so so to tell just walked in here and put a glass down in front of me and with like you know drink in it i'm like what's this oh a rum and coke courtesy of the discord thanks guys thanks all righty so um as as you kind of come out with it with this book into um tannhauser i assume you just start like flipping through it um yeah yeah yeah so so this is this is a grimoire it contains a variety of spells in it um so it is a it is a spell book it can hold up to 100 spells it has far far fewer spells than that um however it does have several spells which i will um which which i will certainly pass over to you so that you are aware of which ones you have um and i will like drag those over to your sheet as appropriate but um you've got a you've got a good amount of new spells as you're flipping through i'll give you the the sort of quick highlights um as as it were you have a um sending that exists in here hey that is a spell that allows you to uh spend messages over fairly fairly long distances um along with that you can also there's also a uh detect crying spell spell so you can detect if you're under say magical surveillance that's um there is a veil of privacy spell that uh you know protects you from magical detection i'm sensing a theme yeah right it very very interesting someone hidden in an old chimney didn't want to be found yeah yeah yeah yeah um there's a clairaudience uh spell which allows you to like hear through invisible magical sensors um there is a clairvoyance spell that that allows you to see through an invisible magical sensor our chat member says magical vpn i would change it the spell vpn so you just sponsored us for the magic that's right that's right um yeah so so you see like all of these uh variety of spells those are the the primary spells i've just moved them over your spell so you have access to them now but um what you know about this book that is interesting is as a grimoire it's not only a spell book but it is a type of uh spell book that when you prepare your spells it can give you a special benefit so in this case um as a reaction if you if you prep your spells through this and you can move all of your spells over into the book so you could prepare everything you have out of this book um basically once per day um if your last action was like a divination spell which okay little asterix here spell schools don't exist in in pathfinder uh remaster but like if it's a divination like spell like say one of the themed spells in this book or something like true strike um you can as a free action as part of casting that spell you can do a seek or recall knowledge action for free once per day how interesting and what exactly is the mechanism that allows this to happen is there like a gem on the front or no so that's that like portion at the beginning of the book that is a bunch of treatises on on what is the analysis of destiny um and the idea of looking into one's future through destiny there's a lot of conceptual notes on that in here so those first few pages before the spells are sort of treatises that you can like basically encode into your brain and in the same way that you encode spells it just gives you this beneficial extra effect so that's the benefit of a grimoire is that it is a spell book which you know is in of itself a powerful item but it's a spell book that gives you like a hey once per day or maybe you know later on like once per hour or something you can get like a perk out of it that's very interesting i will have to um figure out whether i want to find is there any way perhaps i could transfer these things to my already existing spell book well so so in this case like the the grimoire itself like this this book is is the thing you could transfer all of your spells from your spell book into this thing no problem okay like the actual this book itself is the magical item i take a look at my little red spell book that has served me so well throughout this journey take a look at the big book we'll need to make this book read somehow i thought you were going to do the the thing where like that that toy story perspective like i don't want to cast from you anymore and like drop the book i would have also accepted like just throws it into some nearby fireplace and then other someone else is like dude you didn't copy your spells yet oh no well you know these things happen um out of curiosity and i don't mean to slow us down too much but i do have two things i'd like to do before we move on yes um the first one now that i have access to this spell uh given that we're kind of in a non-combat situation um can i potentially cast one of the spells here uh so you would need to do like preparation so that would be one of those cases if you'd have to spend like a long eight hours before you could cast those okay totally fine um the second thing is i'm going to look down at this all right everyone i have a completely potentially time wasting thing that we need to do purely because my instincts are screaming at me right now yeah we've just found a spell book that contained a variety of different means to evade detection yes we have faced off against a series of rot infected assassins assassins that are typically bodyguards yes correct but are not a guarding well i would assume grandpappy declan you would assume that and yet he is not here now it is highly probable that there is no one up here and that really any further investigations would simply be a waste of time but if i were grandpappy declan and i were up here i with access to these powers would make myself invisible and wait for everyone to leave therefore i advise a very quick and brief tangent i invite you all to do as i do i walk into this room and i'm just gonna start running around at random with my arms flailing just get a helicopter method just spin like you're somewhere you mother yes can you give me a wisdom check for who just like a d20 plus your wisdom modifier please okay okay okay his hair is we set him on fire and it never went out he's dead i'm dead yeah can can you give me that that wisdom check hulky no okay all right i can't actually do that all right hold on yeah sorry um well that's okay it's d20 plus four i'm not very wise to be in in all fairness of course of course of course of course oh my god please cooperate with me today foundry cool um hey uh hey um that was a three for audio or and yeah uh or and can you give me the same thing a d20 plus four yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah please please yeah natural 20 yeah okay yeah so like as the spider who went into the wall and got the book out you recognize that like that book had been there for a long time it was not like a hidden thing that someone in this house accessed like this is like the house was built around it and that book had been there like for generations mr tenhauser i know you're in here and i opened the back door what he's constantly chasing you as you're spinning and like yeah yeah like this book's like the book's like really old and it was probably here way before and even so he would probably wouldn't be in this room he could be anywhere he could be anywhere there might be a basement mr tenhauser that we might look for inside of the building and if we mr tenhauser or like stomps his bird foot down and does galblast like tenhauser looks at him not going to be here mr tenhauser if he was going to be anywhere he would probably there probably is a hidden downstairs or something that he might be hiding in it it's what one of the pieces of paper said remember tenhauser puts a hand on your shoulder or in you have learned a valuable lesson today about being assertive i appreciate your judgment please don't beat me up very well and i'll retract my arm so i want i want to reiterate what are we doing well i i would say it is worth maybe doing a quick sweep and see if we missed uh any invisible people uh but otherwise you know i think we go and take a quick nappy before we go and uh find the entrance to the downstairs and fight cademan so or it kind of addresses the group like well well normally in our hunts we're a bit tired so and we know that whoever we're looking for is probably still either in this building or somewhere else but if they haven't come out of the building that means they're trapped so we can just take what we can try to sell it and get some stuff for prepare to prepare because i need a little rest because we're gonna deal with more rot stuff i need to get us ready with our mossy weapon enchantments so next time we come here we're a lot more prepared so i recommend that i can at least kind of tangle up majority of the entryways here so no one else can fall victim to this place we go off go get some stuff go get some stuff set off what we can get some materials and then come back later and that's uh searching around for any other entrances to you know where the guy is also we can mr baldrick i don't think this building needs to exist anymore once we're done so it also gave us time to prepare for that as well because we didn't we didn't know what we're running into but now we have an idea well i was prepared to blow this place up originally anyway but you know oh did you did you not notice the the coring charges that i've been using with reckless abandon throughout this building i am prepared to level this place oh yeah we should definitely blow this thing up oh agreed i think it needs to be cleansed yeah no we should kill everybody inside and burn it down regardless let's get a move on it's a shame i was hoping to use this as a forward base for the revolution but it seems like the rot is simply too powerful here anyway let's all go because i'm sure no one's down this hallway okay i'm gonna i'm gonna use my last crystal shards to throw at him but i think that's i think if we all agree with that plan we're basically gonna try to lock this plate down or wants to kind of like uh do tanglefoot basically to try to like secure the doors and stuff i'll i'm i'm i understand it's like a duration i'm i would like to spend a narrative declaration to do that if that's okay just to be like i'm gonna druid this up so all entryways are secured also like trying to awkwardly like open the one door see the outhouse there i'm imagine he's like right at the door like hey i'm like i'm just up to seal it up don't look at me yeah um so so yeah you you begin sort of this this last push around here as as this occurs um and you're like starting the the boarding up process oran uh you can see that out in the courtyard the skeletons sort of greets you at the entryway uh and you remember the skeletal servant who you'd met previously hey man are we all outside at this point yeah we're we'll we'll we'll out the courtyard now baldrick will walk up to the skeleton okay we're leaving for now we'll be back very good we uh we leave will that come back to life and he will point at the fountain no good well uh are we gonna bring that one guy that we saved on the couch is he there down he's not there anymore there's like a puddle on the couch poor bastard the fucking raccoon his stain will never get out of that couch oh well well we we tried with that and it was a waste of time let us move on to greener pastures all right can you ensure that nobody accidentally wanders in here uh there's definitely a hell of a lot of rot in there none will enter except us yeah yes you have proven yourselves worthy to enter all right thanks homeboy i'm gonna slip him a silver okay okay okay so uh is the is the plan back to baldrick's house now yes i love our house it's always our house it's always the people's house in the middle of the plaster our i'm going to take a shovel and start digging like four holes in my in my what's that fucking floor what's that hole for mr baldrick holes you but me oh like oren lays in it like a bed thank you mr baldrick terrific i leave anyway back to baldrick's house back to baldrick house all right people house all right yeah so um i keep changing the name of it so i have to find the the name of the file it's probably the people's duplex because it's currently the people's duplex yeah that's the joke you fuckers we're running we can't fucking call the people's tenement yeah because a tenement's much bigger also because tenements are bad it could be bigger you could less expand we could knock down more walls exactly i could also repurpose you into planks and lacquer you and use you on the floor you may certainly try stinky boy i will succeed i do more damage than you dumber i'll kill you i tried to say dummy and i said dumber you dumber okay dummy all right uh with that being done baldrick's going to take the pile of alchemical supplies that he's obtained and he's going to go into his workshop and slam the door shut then he's going to open the door and lean out you guys may need to do some other things to prepare i'm making out chemicals so you do that you have my permission to use whatever money we have scattered about to do whatever okay sounds like a plan baldrick will come past the the kitchen and he will nod his helmet at at uh oh for crap's sake i forget everyone's names already we've been here we've been away too long friends well a few things happen you come out and you see in the hallway crunch is emerging from the secret door um because you've erected a wall back between the tenements but crunch has now come from the secret wall um as you come in you can see that um mar marlene and your little uh yasuki friend have been hard at work um with pamphlets on the table for the revolution meanwhile uh do hakus the gargoyle has been um sitting there like referencing several esoteric tomes oh you're back and like turns to you as you like stride by baldrick and then crunch who's like trying to awkwardly stumble over it over the desk that kind of blocks part of the the hidden door you're back you're back we're not back for a long period we're probably back for like a day or two i need to prepare some things we're going back it's not done yet yeah it's rotten oh oh it's terrible yeah none of you are rotten right uh not currently no we we got that all fixed up god don't get rotten that's not good for you dohaka sort of shouts from the uh the dining room room right anyway crunch ladies rat boy yeah okay as he enters his wub room exactly his gamer pad all right so uh i want to i want to quickly just set this up so i can leave you guys free to like do whatever you need to do uh thurston with these alchemical supplies what would you say i could get away with creating as a permanent potion or throwable or whatever i mean you've got formulas for a bunch of stuff so i guess the so i'll i'll i'll raise you a supplies list that i'm going to try and put together and i will use money or whatever is necessary to put together whatever i can't it okay that's unfair for sure yeah for sure i will i will message that to you in the chat you go go ahead and tackle them and you can just let me know okay all right and the rest of you so like bulger comes in and immediately just off into the uh into the wub wub room what are the rest of you um hey crunch about how long does it take for you to uh fix a rune onto something oh oh probably a better part of a day if that's i mean i could do multiple at once i'm very skilled you see with this hammer i just go clang clang clang and then i etch them on and it doesn't take that long at all i suppose if you had to quantify it in a specific time process is this a rune that you have on its own is this one that i'm moving between items oh uh well i think beefing up our armor a little bit isn't a bad idea if we're about to face what i assume is some kind of rot monster based upon precedent um likewise we've uh this vena uh-huh the thing we could probably do so we can go out and go shopping and we can get a shopping list of all the stuff we need i think we only have like uh oran will look at our like imaginary people's loot stash like we only got one of the runes right we'll probably need at least one for me and one for tanhauser ideally one for each of us uh but just making sure that we should go ahead and buy that just because you know we're on a bit of a time crunch i think blotus might have everything we need he's not too far away so you probably do we'll probably get a shopping list and head over there also how many how many stamps you got and he kind of points to the blotus card oh god how many stamps do i have yeah it's like we've gone to him twice all right we got we got two little stamps have we gotten the how many do we need for a reward you'll have to find out when you get there all right looks at our card it's nebulous we'll never know what how many how many squares there are it's like i look at it and it's like liquid it keeps moving exactly oh there you go thurston cool all right so talk of going to blotus what about the rest of you well i suppose it makes sense to continue on that way though i do have that evil spells book that i should probably do my you should probably read it yeah hey so i guess i have to spend eight hours but hey tanhauser yes do you want to do you want to just keep me company when i work on a fun thing of course but what is the fun thing ah it wouldn't be surprised if i told you well i'm going to watch you make it so it won't be surprising because i will watch it being made okay but trust me when i say it'll be really cool if you don't know until it happens i'm not going to kill you i know you won't very well i will watch you make your evil device while reading my book okay and on that note how about we take a quick five minute break we're gonna answer some chat questions and stuff in our beer bat segment but if you're watching on the vod we'll be back one more vod or podcast we'll be back in a moment but for everybody else don't go anywhere and we're back we're back we're back we're back we are back because we're still still at bodrick's house oran will kind of come down the hallway kind of like pitter pattering and stuff and he'll knock on on bodrick's door that's a just a coom coom coom mr bodrick you can just hear a voice shout from behind it what do you want we're going to go out shopping do you need anything no i specifically locked myself in here so you guys couldn't get in and so you could go shopping or to kind of okay just leaves oh yeah so we were supposed to discuss this when everyone actually got back but everyone was back at staggered times and then we got sidetracked again how much time are we spending out of the mansion yeah my thought was just the night but you did mention that you wanted to have four days to make the alchemist i didn't want four days i wanted to offer that if that's still too much time for people to spend doing stuff to prepare for this that's fine i was imagining we would we would shop first get everything and then when we come home we would do our long rest uh and then a day of preparation for stuff because we'll need time to craft some items and things and get everyone prepped yeah i'm good for that yeah i mean we're in no rush it seems like everyone is dead yeah and uh yeah so so long as the the house doesn't like grow legs like mama yaga shack that we come back it starts rising up he's like what is it's like the house it's not there you're just like well we done it was a mim house well you don't want it the house just moves away assuming it doesn't bring its dumpy with it then the basement's just exposed i am down for waiting the full time though so balder can get everything he needs so we can take care of the house after because if it's rot infested uh it's either that or we try to like contact one of the guilds uh that come over and try to uh take care of the rod and that's it oh fuck that yeah i'm gonna just like i'm just gonna fucking prepare a bunch of coring charges the day of using my if infused ingredients and then we'll call that even yeah we should focus mostly on murdering people i think yeah absolutely revolution high five high five high five so to high five to make a decision are we waiting the four days or no no no all right so we're just gonna do uh the long rest tonight and then a day of prep sounds good to me yeah all right yeah after shopping and stuff live guys so to to simplify things and not like go down the like the crafting rabbit hole don't worry if you want to learn more about that come come play our kingmaker uh watch our kingmaker stuff um for for purposes of this let's just go with um give me a crafting check at baldrick and then based off of that uh i'll let you make four different out like up to four alchemical items okay i'm going to make alchemy good here we go here we go that's a 31 um yeah okay so that will be enough for you to essentially make all of those items at 75 of their cost very nice i'll take it yeah i'm not gonna i'm not gonna fuss around with it i'm just gonna say like yeah that's that's cheaper i'll pay yeah it's cheaper you didn't get a crit success i'm kind of like doing some speed running on crafting here but i think it you know works well for for this type of campaign so don't come at me in the comments about crafting you make your game work for yourselves um yeah cool cool cool and then the rest of you wanted to go make some purchases right two of them did yes all right so uh i assume you are heading to the blowtie yes indeed yes indeed the five guys it's a five guys guys okay excellent excellent we love blow this i will uh i will however before they leave give them my card to get stamps i don't know if it works like that but you know we'll try don't worry i'll get your i'll get your stamp mr tanhauser collective action all right you make your way towards the colonnaded uh entrance to the open market of blotus the fly merchant as you come in the place is oddly empty for what it has been in the past but there is a deep rumbling chuckle throughout the areas you have to welcome welcome welcome welcome hi mr blotus what's up lotus how have things been in your neck of the woods very busy but we're very excited you've come we're excited too buddy so uh you got anything special in the uh stocks this time i've always got something special in the stocks anything particularly interesting a sort of blotus special as it were a blotus special like more ominous chuckling well i've got a few things what uh what kind of special are you looking for all right so we're looking for uh i'm going back to the discord to look at uh zoran's messages so we're getting the discord don't worry about mr blotus uh it's young kid stuff okay um so we're getting the aeon stones correct yes uh each of the aeon stones should be a collective amount of money that conveniently pops up on my window uh 60 60 gp for the pearly white spindle yes i think we want it for everybody so yes it'll be five due to renos 60 times 300 i'll write that down aeon stones for 300 gp oh you're looking for stones do you have it mr blotus i have all the stones oh all of them all of them every single stone wow rhomboids pearly opalescence hexagonimals hexagonimals those are rare all right uh let me tell you every time that you design aeon stone as like a game designer it becomes like this crusade to find the most fucking obscure shapes ever and turn them into like stones yes you learn so many fun words we need the weirdest shapes oh there is one of those yes i believe that's like one of the 20 a few errands and then we're gonna need uh one more armor potency rune oh i have one of those right here in my back pocket oh you just keep them on you oh yes you always need an armor potency rune just just just just a loose leaf just a raw potency rune you can etch it anywhere is uh let's see we're basically getting the formula for it is that right and then crunch edges it or are we you buy the rune on like a on a stone and then basically he just transfers it yeah yeah okay uh so we have to only get the plus one because the plus two is a thousand something gold and it's too high level for us anyhow yeah so it'd be 160 each how many did you guys want to get everyone to fix with one for their ac um do we want to do it for the whole party um because i know that we also wanted to do you mentioned the resilient runes i think that's a good idea yeah um um i definitely wouldn't recommend armor potency for everybody except for orn orn's gonna be squishy no matter what so that'll be 160 times four about 640. i've already have an armor potent if i'm not mistaken do you okay i do i do may all want to double check yeah because i think we've had that one or two drops yeah because we should have some actually that is a good idea uh i don't think i have the plus one armor plus one you guys you want to help out with the uh shopping episode tell us what we should get at level nine right give us recommendations that's okay i have an idea please you've got a little friend there don't you looks at oran he is very small this is going to be out of game knowledge if you put the collar there in the stash because i already took that put it on orange thing nope it's not oh god oh boy reverse that yeah i have i have a friend of mine does he like treats yeah you should have this and he pulls out something that looks to be like a granola bar if it were made from grains and meat mashed together oh oh i thought you love pemmican no okay sorry no he is providing you a small like ground bar of meat and grains now i'll have to charge you but i'll give you a very good deal only 40 go to pieces gonna roll a nature check to see what it does like what benefit absolutely absolutely okay that don't look don't look at my sheet that stop looking chat look judge it chat chat chat that's existing on the die for a total of 35 as orange like looking around this bar going wow this is an item called an energizing treat when you feed it to your animal companion or familiar they become quickened for one minute and can use the extra action for a strike stride or a support action like that's really cool but we got to get everything else first before we get that if have anything extra right i'll definitely buy some oh yes i'm just saying your little guy might like it get the little chomp chomp and he kind of like goes forward and makes some like chomping gestures with his like bad teeth so for while the buzzing flies are going in and out of the cage still yeah so for resilient runes uh a oh god we can't afford that one yeah yeah they're they're pretty pricey they're they're mostly there though they'll be important for people who have to regularly make saves yeah yeah um so beyond that i don't think there's a ton we can dump a bunch of money on so uh hopefully cademan drops 10 billion gold and we can all upgrade our weapons after this so for all that we spent so far was 300 plus 480 i think for armor runes uh that'll be 780 oh wait i don't think all of us actually need the armor runes because i have a plus one already rahua has a plus one okay so anybody who doesn't we should get one for does tanhazer have a plus one i have a plus one on my weapon but i don't have a plus one on my armor okay okay so i'll be about 620. we had a total about like 1 276. uh my uh uh my selfish need would be like a greater staff of healing mostly because that staff will have things to help out with diseases and stuff and it once we start getting to these higher levels that might become more prevalent of me getting like restoration and stuff like that so that's what i would like to vouch for so as i'm healing folks i could kind of help people with like diseases and poisons and stuff um you see how much that is oh god i love it when it gets a wrong thing a greater version is 470 gold uh yeah that'll bring us up to a thousand so is that okay with the party and i can sell my old staff yeah that's joke yeah i want to ask thurston just because i'm trying to make sure of this you did deduct like the 75 percent cost of what i'm making right what do you mean like like i just gave you the the the cost so it's like whatever the the things cost you would pay 75 of it like in raw materials okay so that's what i wanted to okay i pardon me because in total the amount of shit that i'm making is going to cost like 1 000 so like if i'm yeah if you guys are spending a whole bunch then i'm gonna have to rework my plan uh you did also get 750 gold worth of alchemicals though that's what i wanted i'm trying to make sure of that here because like is that paying off the majority of that thurston or am i still like over i think like like if you're using those goods for it it'd pay it off pretty okay effectively yeah okay good as long if they aren't dipping into that 750 i think you're good so yeah which i don't think they've touched that so nope i know i just wanted to just wanted to clarify that uh oh we also want to sell the sun dazzler get that 450 gold yeah well half price remember oh yes and our jade thing that we have on our inventory indeed um oren will we'll start picking things up as he goes like you want to check this out you want to check it out and maybe he kind of leans to vena maybe hackle right we do have something for you lotus if you're interested in it oh what's that have you ever seen one of these and i hold up the sun dazzler this baby is called a sun dazzler now uh careful aiming it into your eyes but you see those beautiful prismatic colors inside with the right lighting they can create a great burst of light uh in a the 30-foot cone in front of you it's a pretty useful little bobble and i think that you could definitely get a uh if not some good personal use you can definitely sell it for a hell of a lot the valuable thing so um i would be willing to part ways with it for let's say around 450 gold pieces why don't you want it well because one i already have other means of dazzling my opponents and i uh a gesture to the gun on my hip and two because well it's um well actually i really only just need the guns and nobody else in the party seemed interested in it i always have to ask why because you see if you don't want it then i have to think why someone else would want it of course there are plenty of reasons to want it one it can put on a hell of a light show so set it up in the middle of a uh of a party aim it at the ceiling and boom scintillating light do you like the parties well i don't really have all that much time to throw them nowadays so uh give me a diplomacy check all right capitalism capitalism capitalism barter moment barter moments you know i should have just straight up lied to him that's a 24 very interesting guy to buy i'll go i'll pay a half of the retailer price for it half the retail price that deal very good hand it over it's uh 225. yeah he takes a bite into it like it's a piece of gold to be analyzed what's it taste like tastes like dazzling excellent that's what shiny rocks taste like orrin says from the back coming up with a whole bunch of the items yeah just like waddling out with like all these rooms you didn't take anything did you or looks at his hands full of the stuff no okay he's like i brought it here to check out he's like he's confused he's scared and nervous yeah the child has been accused of theft all right um so i'll do that and i'll buy three of the treats yes buy of the treats you will like the treats all right so how many plus one armors are we getting and then we're getting one of the the funny rocks for everyone the aeon stones yeah uh which aeon stones were you picking up for yourselves the pearly white spindle yeah uh i think everything totals to uh 12 10 for our spinatures yeah if i did my math right we can triple check later and see if i cheated yeah because it may be less because again we don't we don't all need to buy the armor potency rones yeah i uh here let's do this i don't need it do you need it odo nope uh speaker does uh tenhouser need it speaker does uh i probably do yeah yes that's one hulky does for who i need it uh for our potency no and does baldrick need it nope i got a resilience i believe okay we all need one then uh uh well the the other one is a plus one ac uh lost how much they were trusting it yeah it's it's not super expensive so i would probably advise getting a plus one because we could later upgrade that to the plus two and it gives you more rune slots and shit yeah because you want it just to put like uh property or yeah properties indeed try to find it's 168 so we only need one of those right if i get the math right so yep under of those uh it'll also be 300 times 5 plus 160. no not that there's like a cash register and blotus it's just like no it'll be 300 total for that sorry 300 for that plus 160 sorry stream i'm trying to math this for everybody as fast as i can so that'll be 460 total and then for the staff of healing uh that will be something greater is what we're getting i want to sell my staff of healing and orrin will kind of all the stuff on the ground but can i can i do like a trade-in program of trading in my staff of healing for a better staff of healing get like a discount all right i will let you trade it in to the full value since you're upgrading it oh thanks and i'll give you an upgrade stamp on our new upgrade card dude another card that's right how many squares are on the card uh give me a will save oh my god a will save that's an 18 on the die for a total of 35 um the the the the non-euclidean geometry of blotus's uh latest uh card makes it difficult to pinpoint an exact number though you know it is possible in this lifetime to achieve the maximum squares on the card thinking of the exact number however makes your mind hurt so it ain't happening it could happen and it might have already happened somewhere there is a completed blotus card somewhere in the world orrin flips his his cards all the blotus like slides them over to get them stamped for something as he's helping finish the purchase but uh and he's like how many more do i need for the the fill up the card blotus looks you yeah that ain't a number very good i tried my best to sneak in an answer this game master this is where you're like some smart ass dude and you're like is this is this like a mcdonald's coffee can i like combine them together like i've got three cards can you count the stickers on all of them sir this is a ruby tuesdays ruby tuesdays like that's gonna be an item that i will have to now put in a dungeon is the completed blotus card absolute essence of completed blotus card yeah it is too heavy to pick up okay so well he'll do that he'll do two of the treats okay be two of the treats two treats for the gp each okay and that'll be a total of 920 so far uh did we we want to sell the jade bobble in which orrin will present the bobble and be all like it's like oh you also want this mr blotus it's like i think it's a really good prize i think this would go for like 200 gold right vena and he looks at vena he screams at you screams in your ear ruptures your eardrums vena do you want to do you want a deception check to try to oh of course or do you want a diplomacy are you willing to lie to the eldritch being of blotus you know that's the thing i feel like if i lie to blotus i'll just get spirited away to the blotus dimension you'll be a fly in the cage as exactly but now i'm just going to give him another dazzling smile i'm gonna say oh yes the jade bobble this thing you see it can draw attention isn't it so beautiful i'm gonna hold you like putting it on as a necklace as you're saying look look at this the shopping channel you can use it to draw the attention of all of your admirers who will be a hell of a lot more jealous if you've got this baby on let me tell you or if you're a duelist you're gonna fix it to a weapon and you could draw the attention of everyone on the battlefield exceptionally good if you're a bit of a big tanky sort wouldn't you say diplomacy check out here trying to get things for free i don't want this to be free actually i want him to pay for it no you want to give it to them that's a 27 lotus stares at you stares at the object stares back at you isn't it beautiful i apologize why don't you want it well one because you've seen the composition of my party right none of us are exactly tanky so one of us taking literally every single hit from everybody on the battlefield would be bad however there are plenty of people who were built for it or a lovely lady who is a lot more uh in tune with the courts than myself i'm a little more accustomed to the battlefields and the skies could get a hell of a lot of use of it it would be bad if you were in a party where you were the only one who ran ahead and everyone attacked you and you died multiple times that would be terrible all right i'll buy it all right hundred gold pieces one twenty all be nice oh blotus you're my favorite all right and i'll hand over the he has no response to you calling him your favorite none okay no we'll be spending 800 total so far so we have some wiggle room uh we can buy some antidotes and some potions of quickness they're gonna give us like drink this get haste do we want to buy those yeah give me give me like one of those okay so let's get an antidote for everybody we can get the moderate version give a plus three bonus they're 35 gold each so if i do this right that's for five people that's 175 and for potions of quickness uh let's do let's see how much this is for that's 90 gold each that's many times five that's 450 they'll definitely put us over so we can get two of those probably yeah and so that in a total plus 175 plus 800 will give us to 1155 so perfect uh and we did just get the money from the sundazzler and the uh yeah i i just did that in for it so basically all that is all we have to minus now so and after taxes you should be looking at about a 40 percent return on two potions of thickness uh five oh shit five antidotes just in case one staff of healing trader and uh the neon stones one potency armor rune just to make sure and anything else that we get that i'm missing i don't think we got any resiliences or anything else nothing anybody else needed we got everything calculated right i'm pretty sure yeah if you want to buy me some fertilizer while you're at the store i'd appreciate it yeah or on the way we'll pick up like rotten vegetables and put it in a bag that'll work oh very good so with that i think that should do it so i think that'll do it mr thurston okay interesting interesting interesting um i think this will be it mr blotus uh this thing this thing this thing is and here's our cards all right let me look into apply your bonus oh we get a bonus preferred customer and he stamps twice one more time you broke up oh preferred customer and he stamps twice oh two of them wow oran turns the veena eyes like shiny like we got two we got two i think he likes us like orange look over in his cold dead eyes there's like a stare in this smile no get out p oh thank you oh thank you blotus he hugs his card come back soon bye mr blotus goodbye blotus all right so as that happens uh we cut back to ruhua and tanhout um what are you doing over in the people's duplex specifically ruhua who is press gang tanhoutzer okay oh so i believe we last established that ruhua doesn't have a room so to speak he just kind of stands around yep yeah uh i think we need to make some adjustments oh excellent okay now baldrick uh sealed up partially the or did he knock it down do you knock it down again the space between the workshop and baldrick's home the wall which i'm right next to you have you he forced a re-establishment of a wall yes there is no open hole between the two buildings anymore do not make another one i will attack you oh oh erndel you have no idea you have no idea the temptation but i'm not in the mood to die immediately with nothing i know how many alchemist fires it takes to kill you don't start with me okay tanhoutzer yes because i feel the specter of baldrick's rage looming over me follow me okay strange thing to say but all right so we're always going to go out the front door and go into crunch's workshop okay remember there's also the secret path oh god there is the secret path isn't there there is the secret path oh yes across the the bridge into the abyss see that one's okay because that one was there it was not forced into my wall like a psychopath but you know don't don't overstay your welcome or you hey hey hey i'm not a psychopath i simply have a disregard for the establishment of buildings and the barriers between them i think you would be hard pressed i think you would be hard pressed to not have that defined a psychopathy but you know whatever do whatever you gotta do thank you all right so we'll take we'll take the secret path instead okay it's in the same map oh okay we're gonna go through meanwhile so tanhoutzer i've been meaning for some time to expand my horizons with the various sundries that i've been picking up through our journeys and i think it's time to leave in on a little project you don't really have to do anything i mostly just want to show it off to you because i don't know you you have all the cool stuff you're a wizard after all so you might be able to help me out i might be able to and i might be a wizard continue okay so watch this and rua will go into the main room of the workshop right in front of the door yeah no chat i'm worried you see this room this is unfettered opportunity here now everywhere around we see an establishment a a building order that was imposed upon was once the wilds of fredoma fields swamps bogs teeming with life now covered up at least in some fashion with the veneer of civility now watch as i do god's work and rahua will mantle his pick and with a mighty swing bring it down into the floor and begin pulling up floorboards okay this is the part where baldrick might be like what are you doing stop tannhauser seeing you beginning ripping up the floor of cronch's house do you need do you need help i mean if you want to it's it's kind of fun you like disestablishment i do like disestablishment uh all right i will um get a shovel and i will help break the floor excellent okay can i get athletics checks absolutely 20 20 with a with a two okay two on the die yeah um okay tannhauser oh that was almost a nat 20 that's a 25 so crunch comes through the door um seeing as you're like like rahua you're having some difficulty like clearly the pick is not meant for pulling up floorboards in this manner uh the shovel's a bit more effective um like crunch just what is happening i don't know yet what what oh hi crunch why i just i'm is there some subterranean threat which i should be aware of oh no no subterranean threat at all in in fact we're doing this in here because if i did it back in the other part of the people's duplex uh baldrick would burn me to death i've seen it in my mind's eye and i'm not keen to be set in fire by anything other than tannhauser's wonderful wizard powers right right right oh oh oh wait wait wait wait wait wait that houses wizard yes it we didn't we didn't know the entire time he's a wizard what i have a wizard training he's a wizard he can set your head on fire if you ask him to what what what what school did you go to i was trained by lady zale interesting name i've never i've never conversed in in a manner with with with a true true arcane wizard before you always i mean or as a magician i'm not a well i am a magus but i have wizard training but clearly through your wizardly training you've identified a threat underneath these floorboards that we must exterminate well actually i'm just sort of mindlessly doing whatever i'm being uh brought to do by rahua yeah there's there's no threat to be exterminated in fact we're going to make things in the floorboards we're going to remove the floorboards so we can add more wonderful things in their absence if anything it's probably more dangerous to not stop us do you need help oh that would be great absolutely if you want to come over actually you can you can take some of these floorboards we could make a sort of a fence around this uh excavated part here you come over here your hammer might be suited for this i have some equipment down in the forge perhaps a hammer we could we could use a python and then it seems underneath the floorboard though there's a bunch of guys digging a hole this is the true man's world literally just guys being dudes wasn't this like literally like a thing from breaking bad we're like in one episode he's like you need to go dig a hole to a meth addict and the methodic's like yeah that makes sense let's go do it okay um hey wait all right do we get a hole bonus what okay yeah hold on yeah it's in the rulebook hole bonus we get one yeah okay okay okay okay so uh yeah yeah like crunch has pointed out rightly so that underneath the floorboards is like raw stone like worked stone because outset is a series of buildings built on top of buildings okay that does pose somewhat of a problem but uh crunch you might be able to help me a little further with this with the stuff that you have in your workshop yes although baldrick might be a bit better in this capacity do you happen to have any any some alchemical adjacent compounds things that are uh oh what's the word for it how do i say nitrogen based in a society that may not grasp the concept of nitrile um high yield explosives uh uh uh uh yeah he has two explosives from baldrick oh we don't we don't need explosives i need things that are nitrogen based do you want to ask baldrick because he went to college and would know these things or are you going to continue to grind your head at it we will we will wait and see crunch now that i think of it do you have any dirt down there in the forge from where you have expanded well i mean the only the only areas were the places where the spiders came in but we've sealed all of those up now okay here i i have a mission for you oh is that it are we are we going to chase them back to their nests no not yet though that is a good idea we should keep that in mind later there's probably more of them um crunch come here come here and rahua will motion him over i'm coming i'm coming i'm on a different layer than token so it takes a second okay yes crunch is moving at several like tens of frames slower so he's just like instant transmission yeah hello and rahua will produce from his wrist i'd say about five gold pieces take these yes go to the market and actually the rook's pilaster if you can make it there i believe there is a wildlife supply store a farmsteading store that's what it is i apologize i don't really do much of this in my spare time i don't really have the time but not the squires pilaster all right no not the spires pilaster no no no uh i need you to go and get me some nice good quality dirt if you happen to come across an a salesman there who might be able to sell a very small farm assistant well tools there might be some small livestock we could procure for this just get me the prices on them i'll get you i'll pay you the cost later just go and get some dirt and find where to get good good non-communicative help all right all right wait i don't know about the legal ramifications of learning how to make a fertilized bomb on stream is we're not making a bomb sorry i i stopped speaker go ahead speaker is so wait the main thing that you're looking for is dirt well we yes we do need some dirt for what is to come next why didn't you just go outside and because some dirt this city the the pond's pilaster is toxic do you see all the trash around do you see the pit of hell that we've crawled in and out of yes but any dirt you get below the floorboards would be equally as toxic yes which is why it's mostly stone we're going to excavate the stone we're going to put it somewhere else and we're going to fill the hole dirt tenhouser looks like he might want to like say something he leans in now that sounds good to me let's do it what what and like as this has gone on to hawkis has crept by oh hello to hawkis what is going on here to hawkis i've been meaning to speak with you i've been meaning to speak with you i i wanted to give you some time and now you're digging up floorboards well that was rahua's idea here's mine it was i start introducing myself as a great wizard tarnhauser how do you how do you think that would go in far as our branding of the revolution why are you digging up the floorboards walks by you we're making friends what well friends and and food but mostly space for friends you hear what sounds like what might be machinery you stay right you wake up you're now in dark souls where do you want to go stay there pound pound pound yeah who is it i'm here right now i inquire as to why it's important can you explain to me why it's important it's your destiny now get out here oh for the love of one moment you hear the sound of an immense fissing fizzing hiss as well as the sound of what sounds like a tea kettle boiling over you can hear the the whistling growing louder and louder and louder and louder and louder until it starts to get alarming and then you hear it start to peter off along with the sound of the sound of burbling spittling nonsense and the door swings open and baltric stands there come here yeah go into your room you go into baltric's room all right what are we doing go into the room open the door no not that room i close the door this room politics over here no points to like baltric's both of you inside comes in slams the door guys i think the game master's angry maldric leans against the fireplace as he has been ushered into his room by the fire i grab the potted uh wow you leave that alone right now you're who i need it you can put that plant down right now i could no you're going to what rahua needs right now is your help clarify you're all destined do you get that i've been doing a lot of research on this gonna be my next thesis piece okay elaborate i need for you to help him you're destined i i you've told me back back got me a jackass and all that about your little tumble into the temple well i've been researching obviously based on what you told me of the solitude you're you're all you're all sponsored probably by auntie drown it seems like well deity sponsorship is a delicate delicate matter it weaves you into a destiny and i've been researching destiny and destiny sets you on a path it sets you on a path that the gods want you to follow but but but those paths those paths have branches and they can they can be twisted and turned and eventually broken but the thing about all of your destinies is that rahua doesn't make any damn sense and she slams her like like clenched fist on the table causing the the foliage there to shake slightly what do you mean in the records of sponsorship there have never been any creatures animate of one opposed power that have been granted sponsorship by another one okay so he doesn't make any sense how does that factor in with us because why would she do it perhaps if we are truly destined as you claim the threat that we are set to face is one that only he can be provided on i don't know that's the problem i've been racking my brain around it it it doesn't make any sense none of it does i i i've i've pieced some things together i'm fairly sure that a lot is sponsored too a lot bat bozo and think about it association with fire his supernatural abilities that if if if you are avatars of of of auntie drown then then then obviously he is empowered by i wasn't empowered by auntie drown when i received my blessing it was through the fires of uncle blaze was it not oh no no that's just it you're all powered by auntie drown because you died and fell in the waters what happened after that was just that was just fun and exploration you died when you fell well i suppose there's no denying that as much as it pains me but if we died why are we not affixed with the rot because i think it was your first time because because of that connection that happened after that you're your friend vali v now whatever she she she she was rotten or in or in received it all of you have been lucky enough not to suffer any other ill effects so the first one's free in effect i suppose your concern then is that us with our sponsorship presumably by the auntie drown makes no sense given who is nature as a chaotic konrasu all i'm saying is you should keep an eye on him and what he's doing why do you suspect foul play no i suspect it's happened for a reason most likely yes if it happened for a reason then we're not exactly about to be able to change it i don't think at the moment but i keep an eye on all of you anyway so what are the fates of the other sponsored throughout history surely there's some precedent how do their stories typically go and end the the knights of bruna to the in the monastery in the solitude she was a a righteous warrior she died three times and then failed to return after that her remains were interred under the monastery she fought and claimed the lives of bandits and rotten creatures um there have been others of course some some sponsored by other other powers they they say that in ages past the the shining beneficite granted its its its light to the people of the chosen people of the city somehow uh sponsorship varies it's it's it's new and strange and people don't have a good understanding of it but when the gods do it they don't they don't typically do it to people who are of opposing beliefs like a like a friend perhaps they are simply truly desperate no but you were you're on a path and that path is leading somewhere but but but but those paths are not unchangeable after our soiree at the mansion baldrick i would very much like to speak with a representative of anti-drowned perhaps we might achieve some sort of better understanding of our condition through the eyes of one indulged in the faith uh thurston could i make a quick society check to see where we would best do that yeah sure give me one second absolutely society uh that'll be a 30. sweet uh you would know that the only place you'd have like a real chance of meeting someone in town might be a representative in the bishop's plaster though that wouldn't be the the most accurate representation of like an old powers representative the best the best thing would be like someone like aethon like people like of the kaibu in the solitude there aren't a lot of people who you know worship the old powers actively within the within the outset baldrick kind of rolls his hand around a little bit well the best option for us would have been doing something out in the solitude asking people in the kaibu after that would have probably been someone in the bishop's philaster probably finding an actual temple dedicated to it best that we're going to find around here in the ponds is some kind of street preacher and they're probably going to make you drink sacramental wine laced with sea water so probably not the best use of your time i've drank worse uh yeah but they make you drink a lot i'm just saying that things are strange here and i'm trying to learn more but it's it's difficult there's a lot of research material i trust that you are doing all within your abilities and i thank you for your insight and counsel if tessin and and mally would just stop asking me to help them with pamphlets it'd be a lot easier i'll tell them to cease inquiring as to your talents for such a menial task you're clearly better suited to doing research on that subject i did have a few queries for you i'll keep them short the first and i procure the burned note do you happen to recognize this handwriting yes it's familiar familiar you don't know where from if you can definitely seen it before see if you can cross-reference it we have reason to believe that this individual not only has agents in the solitude but he's behind whatever is going on with the medic's guild behind even the declan family i'll see what i can do it's a bit of a warren trying to think see something i've seen in the last few months at least excellent now then the other subject at hand i was hoping on asking you with regards to this situation with rahua have any of his kind ever been sponsored not by an opposing elemental but in general no their essence means they shouldn't you see what should happen is is they should die and they should go back to the battlefield appropriate elemental plane anyways they imagine like their their parts their their their rahua is part of the anarchy as a whole it's a little tiny part and then that little tiny part eeked its way through the crucible of creation eeked its way into our material realm and animated itself in stuff plants points at the plants on the table that it made a form see with that form it's here but it's essence rahua is part of the anarchy so so when it dies metaphysical whatever it is its form is destroyed and shattered it it goes back it it goes back through the crucible all the way to the fundamental battlefield where it's reconstituted into the anarchy but but but but it made it here it shouldn't be sponsored sponsorship is like a barrier when you go to the crucible it bounces you off well sounds to me like that's an issue for auntie drown to work out with the fundamentals then doesn't it hold on i believe come with me for a moment i would like to discuss something with rahua fine fine fine am i good to go back to my office now yes yeah at that exact moment as you like come down that's when uh veena and orrin have uh returned back from their shopping trip i say if that pressure gauge explodes we're all in for a world of hurt can i have this plant here you can stop touching my plants you don't need what do you need dirt for i don't know but it will make raku happy one moment he goes in there's another cacophonously loud frightening whistling noise coming from the alchemy room and he steadily cranks something down again and the whistling dissipates all right what the hell is all this dirt nonsense about because i want to find this out before he's making like a mud sculpture to whoever the hell oh don't be the fun police let the man have his hobbies no is is everything all right and marlene like pops out looking like down the test and i were we were just working on the on the pamphlets ah excellent you have the newest version yes i i i i was uh tessin was writing them i i i gave some suggestions on wording we think we could get a a a good proper showing for for the next gatherings we're trying to see if we can go into other pilasters soon too well done comrade here give me the newest version hands it over all right i take it i see orrin and uh vena the two of you okay bye let's come back from your uh shopping journey we will cover what's going on we're dealing with a lot of things right now uh orin you know how to read right he looks at you cross-eyed kind of all right right uh i'm gonna take out the pamphlet and hand it to orin orin read this and see if it convinces you of the content if it doesn't tell me that okay yeah put all this stuff on the counter we're talking about destiny and stuff hey speaker yes roll me a d20 if it's even he's holding it the correct way if it's oz he's reading it upside down yeah it's like yeah it's like uh what is what does the pamphlet say i that's that's that's for my cohorts to describe oh okay hey chat what does the pamphlet say what's the slogan for youtube and twitch chat what is tan hauser's uh for a pamphlet that you would read on the wall of outset what is the slogan for tan hauser's revolution revolution good revolution good good good that's all it says revolution good huh revolution fox revolution fuck better red than dead hang on where's that where's that stupid gift that i have it just says it just says this toast with honey butter on your chinese pepper this this is fuck name fuck toast um i'll pick one out of that speaker all right it is hold on it's the world is a fuck image hold on where is it there we go this is what's on the pamphlet this is what i've decided that uh venus is on the pamphlet hell yeah i'm excited yeah it is it is definitely based on the born to die world is a fuck kill them all i am trash man uh 410 billion 757 million 864 530 dead i don't know if i want to put that on stream i don't think i want to well everybody you know if you know you know speaker i'm so impressed that not only have you managed to create a pamphlet for the revolution but you've also created an ontomorphic document but definitely it is it is embroiled with the with the riot of filigree it is red it is convincing you that you need to uh why you are so mad you must get out and fucking kill tyrants guild officers you must go into the streets and drag them and stab them with knives here is why um what in the actual and you just hear this shouted from from the other side of the building or it gives you a thumbs up it's good all right great let's go and see if who has killed anyone what to describe the scene is as those of you make your way across the the secret path into the room who has continued um his his excavations um and as part of this uh this excavating ruhu has now with the pick made a a fine hole in the floor here what the are you doing that has collapsed into a room that is underneath what there was a room underneath i think around the other passage for vena oh yeah yeah they put a wall up again you can't to go through the it was very convenient when it wasn't there i got tired of it baldrick is standing at the edge of the hole peering down at the single glowing green eye peering up at him from the darkness like a fucking cat well hi baldrick who's who is is ruhu down there no okay so who's standing at the you ruined my image so hell now now he is so baldrick doesn't feel as bad okay okay okay one second one second please draw a hole yeah um it's very it's a very good hole okay so so you've ruhu has jumped into hole um okay what the fuck are you doing so ruhu do you have dark actually wait i have light i have light i can't trip he has so you go down and you've cast all right so what you're in is a stone room um that is about the same like dimensions as the room above you so it's like a kind of a cuboid room uh maybe 20 feet by 20 feet uh but what what is noticeable is on the ground in here is like a plant bulb um but it wraps around like a humming green crystal uh and you've seen this type of crystal before long ago at the beginning of your journey um but you see that there are roots that are coming out from this uh from this crystal and they sort of weave uh under the floorboards uh and then they seem to go west uh basically toward like several of them go towards baldrick like the area of baldrick's house underneath like about six of these uh vines that go along the floor up the side of the wall here and then underneath and you see all of these oh it's the only thing in the room is this this like plant that's sitting on top of a section of broken stone that's on the floor of this room um except it like the the stone is broken and there is some dirt underneath which is what it is connected to and seems to be feeding off of so i might have to make your recall knowledge because i don't remember if we ever determined the nature of those green crystals uh the nature of the green crystals at the time you were in that area was that they were nothing in fact i remember baldrick was very angry that you determined they were nothing correct yep now did we make us the very high check to determine if they were actually something we just simply i don't know your ninth level do you want to give me a new nature check i would love to nothing more it's literally been a few months so that is true we've learned to aid you don't need it's okay i have a 34 yeah you you like examine this object you touch it um and you you get flashes and you can tell immediately what this is this is a a primal item that acts like a almost like a a verdant scrying device um the way that the the way that the branches move out from here and go underneath in like the specific areas and in fact when you touch the crystal your mind like follows along the the the vines that creep up the walls and you can tell they they basically form the full circuit of baldrick's house and the adjoining structure um they're like wiretaps in every area so baldrick i'm sorry baldrick rahua will respond to baldrick now so i've heard of this thing called homesteading and this is kind of my home pointing upwards and i'm steading although i didn't intend to go down this far the ground kind of collapsed when i got to a certain point but i seem to have found something of intrigue can i inquire as to why you're homesteading from within a house in the middle of a giant city well i've been collecting a number of things over the course of the journey uh largely various cuttings a couple fungal cultivars i intended to help with both the alchemical side of things but more preparing and tending to various kinds of fauna that we had or flora rather and maybe a few fauna i've picked up i i won't spoil you on the details since that's kind of what i do is maintain life rather than snuff it out all the time much to the contrary of my actions mind you yeah though i appeared to have hit a roadblock in that there's an antechamber below the house uh-huh and do you recall those giant green crystals we saw back when we were fought that rotten drowned creature yeah you said they were nothing so turns out we merely lacked perspective i'm not sure just come down
