Welcome. Welcome to campaigns
concoctions. Everyone I am Morgan.
The GM here in Detachment 1 operating location Alpha of
campaign and concoctions. While everyone else is back at
camping. Concoctions headquarters, thank
you for joining us on this adventure, this journey of
Cooperative storytelling. We are a bunch of disaffected.
Students who, like to drink and play D&D.
Thank you so much for joining us.
We don't have, don't think we have anything that anyone needs
to share. I've got some stuff in the fires
that we'll get to at some point and then in immediate future.
But at this point, we're just really happy that you're here.
You can check all of our interweb, e things down in the
description below where you can find our links to our Discord to
our Instagram, all of those things, best way to - though is
that the Instagram you can just search campaigns and concoctions
and I will pop up. Also, just searches on the
Googles and will come up. But with that all being said
before, we get into actual gameplay let's go ahead and I'll
start off this week I do have a drink, I made a black walnuts
Manhattan, I didn't double here. It is.
Delicious in unfortunately I ran out of rice so I actually had to
use it. Breckenridge bourbon.
So I made a double but so that's total of four ounces of
Breckinridge bourbon, 10 dashes of black, walnuts Bitters, and
two ounces of sweet vermouth stirred and then poured into a
walk. I don't have the proper
glassware. I just all I have is a is a
rocks glass with a large Rock so that's what I am drinking but
let's put it back over to the fellas and hey what are you guys
drinking tonight before? Okay so The week prior to this
recording, I threw up one in our Discord, the I called the
Juniper file threw up in the Discord.
It's where I'm going to look up the recipe.
Anyways, gotta check the recipe of well that's on the floor to
figure out what you drank, you know, more about it starts off
with an ounce and a half of the Juniper Jones.
Earl Grey gem point. 7 5 ounce of the gargoyle plum.
Brandy Currently. It's at like a quarter ounce of
honey syrup of quarter ounce of lemon juice egg white.
So it's a sour, I dry Shake lemon juice, syrup and egg white
together at ice and liquor Shake again.
Strain the one that's currently getting passed around.
The table is the same thing. But instead of the gargoyle plum
brandy I use a Shia umeshu. It's a Japanese like dessert
plum wine may be used instead very nice, same process, just
swapped the plumbing things. and that when I call the Juniper
mist, And I made a drink that I'm calling either to the,
chocolate-covered cherry or The Cordial Cherry.
It's a riff on a espresso Martini, the one that I have
here, doesn't have any espresso or coffee in it, but you can put
either espresso or cold brew, whatever into it as well.
If you're going to add espresso or cold brew, I would do like a
half ounce of that. And you can take some of the
other stuff down by about a quarter ounce, but it's an ounce
and a half of vodka 3/4 ounce. Of creme de cacao half an ounce
ounce of cherry hearing half an ounce.
After all half an ounce of Verna Amaro and a half an hour, 3/4 of
an ounce of coffee liqueur here and the one that we use today
was more Getty which is very tasty.
And then I garnished it usually with one or two cherries and
keep them down in the cocktail. So they soak up all that
delicious booze and all that creme de cacao.
Laver. So at the end of the drink, you
have quite literally chocolate. Cherries at the bottom to eat.
It's been very popular with my, espresso, Martini crowd, John.
Welcome delicious. It's really good.
Ben is really good. On John earlier.
You were telling me about this drink and how it's like perfect
for me. And see I let out my inner white
girl. Yes.
And how you said that I might need to offer you sexual favors.
No. I rested on sorting the might
desire to offer. Actually, you know, and I said,
I said, I wasn't going to, but, you know, it's very good.
I'm just saying, I have made this for several people, and in
the last two days, I got phone numbers from two different
people immediately after they tried this drink.
Well, John, you're my phone. All right.
Anything any other drinks that we have on the table right now?
I have a a home-brewed Beer by my friend Bobby that is an old
Jubilation clone that has been Aging in my basement for the
last two years and it is pretty damn spectacular super multi and
delicious. It's typically it's a it's a I
think it's a five malt with its five different malts in a
certain kind of hops and it's it's great.
It's great when he opens his Brewery up in Lakewood at some
point within the next five years.
You'll become really think Kelly ideas.
I already got a minute, it's not me because I already money, the
only person I know with what I do.
Spend it on a site that has a lot of money.
Money. Who's also named Bob just it
might just be Bob and Bob's B&B or something like that, but
yeah. Kind of a power of 2.
Well hopefully we can we can eventually get that make that
happen and then we can we can have some recordings at that
Brewery. That would be awesome, would be
great aunt, but thank you. Thank you again to everyone for
listening. If you are interested in the
cocktails, go ahead and head on to the Discord server, where you
can find all of the recipes of everything that we share.
You can also just see the pictures that are shared on
Instagram. Yeah, it is pretty awesome, but
with all of that, now, let's get into a quick recap of what we
have done. Last time we were together, the
party - scold we're heading to into the woods on the river with
the river capped. Riverboat captain and eventually
we're dropped off and then began an investigation of the area to
see what was stopping the chef of driftwood from finding their
mushrooms. Eventually the party found that
there was a not quite wermeling. Dragon thing that was Dripping
acid from its mouth, a massive battle ensued.
The party came out Victorious and eventually we left off with
L wanting to skin said creature. Yeah, because they did, after
after a little bit of discussion, they didn't want to
bring it. Back because it could possibly
not be edible, don't worry? Not bad habits.
Head. Excellent as proof.
Excellent for collection. Thank you.
In case you missed it. I got it by using a hatchet and
water scams that has a wet saw. A figure than a beast amazing.
So, we literally left off with with L wanting to make a roll to
see if they could skin. What did you want?
Ask in the creature or was it that?
I think he was going to cut off its behind leg to have just it's
1/4 to see if we could try and figure out a way to cook it or
get somebody to cook it. Yeah I was at least going to
take a hunchback that was what it was.
I had nosh I will. Let's go ahead and roll a
nature. Check for that to see if you can
properly. Do this cool dice.
Let's try getting a bonus. If I assist or advantage, since
I've already cut something off of this and I tend to help L
with his experiments. Anyways, I would say give him
advantage on that one. Yeah, that one and a 16 total.
Oh yeah, God for Advantage right there.
So with the 16, you were able to cleanly chop off, a hind leg,
it's pretty big. It's I think if we were to stand
it up on end, it would be taller than you l.
So, but, of course, I mean, that's not that hard, it's
pretty pretty low bar, you know, I'm still almost 4 feet tall.
Yeah, but when it's like, you know how like animals legs
there's hindquarters or kind of compressed when you stretch it
out. So, it's pretty big though.
So, yeah, you're able to get it. It's, I'm pretty sure that it's
someone in the party could carry it.
So, it's not much of an issue. How does it weigh more or less
than the head? Oh, it's gonna weigh more and
more streets of l.a. Um you got.
You've done quite a bit of work. I'd be happy to carry back that
for you. I just I feel like it's going to
drag on the ground while you're carrying it.
I think I got a little bit more. Height, we're going to wait a
minute and string it up. So we don't get the weird blood
anywhere sensitive. I know you have fond of your
hair. You are.
I mean, I'm fond of a lot of me but yeah, I know, I agree.
That's yeah, I've just, I'm offering, you know, to carry it.
I mean, you're more than welcome to carry it.
Okay. But we're definitely gonna make
sure it's blood out first cause acid in the bottom of a boat.
Seems like a bad idea. Is s been about them of the
boat. I like I would like to flow
back. That was the whole point of the
boat taking the boat up here and not walking.
What is this is this so big that it wouldn't fit in the that cool
little bag you have, or is it better to just keep it out?
So did not let it like the hips a little round, the help.
Okay. How big is it at the in
diameter? Is it at the largest Martin?
I mean what is your bag of holding look like it's probably
a copy of one that I saw somewhere.
Like messenger bag backpack. Probably messenger bag because
he's got other shit in his backpack that he doesn't want to
take out. Okay.
Yeah, so it be you could probably get it in there but
it'd be a really, really tight squeeze at the at the joint.
The that case, I'm just going to look at it.
Look at the bag me up now you can carry it.
Oh yeah. Yeah.
Feeling really pump since we move that boat up a hill that
was I mean like I feel like I need to do more of this feel
like I just need to get into the right type of exercise regimen
and I could have those big strong arms like you do.
I'm sure Culver and not touch you but stare intently at your
biceps. There.
I mean are you sure? I'm not allowed to prod him?
Go for it. Not my ball to be at you back
though. It's not much of a I'm not much
of a hitter but yeah it's like a caliper.
Yeah, I would say It's probably about half the diameter of mine.
So fine, a little, a little less and less than 8.
That's the just a little bit. We definitely have a diversity
of bicep sizes. At this table family.
I would say, we probably have a pretty good gradient.
Yeah. An even distribution not like a
belt. Yeah, I know.
They're like, maybe even distribution of.
Yeah. Yeah.
It's been too good for me, man. Else or bukkake.
I'm just gonna. So, is there anything else
anyone else in the party would like to do?
We picked up the mushrooms, we got about three and a half
pounds or something like that. And then you guys, you guys
notice that SOA? Which for those of you who are
wondering and haven't heard that, that voice, Matt is home
ill. So good energy to Matt, even
though we know that, he doesn't listen to me, Matt for a second.
Curtis. Wow.
Oh Johnny made this. Yeah, yeah.
I really am, she's got herself in a corner
and has some sort of notebook out, isn't jotting some notes
down of Kind you're not sure exactly what she's writing.
But she's she's documenting this, if this event of some
time, I want to put this out there to bake Matt have to do
something, right? Well, don't get sick, all my
watch, bitch. Well we're working on a stations
from the the thing we just killed.
Can I have set my drone out to look around the ruins.
Sure just be just be forewarned if you remember that map a
little bit. There's a lot of water that is
surrounding this area. This is very much a swamp.
It's like and not like a Florida swamp like Backwoods Louisiana
swamp. So now I'm going to tell it to
keep like 10 feet off the ground and several feet from any tree
at minimum. And what?
What are you looking for? Anything specific?
I probably just going to tell it to look for anything
interesting. Okay, make a perception.
Check for it. Hang on.
Let me see if it's perception. Is better than mine?
Where the hell is small and smart not to not to wise though.
Okay. Upgrade my passive as 10 plus.
Yeah, I'm 18. Yes, that's what that's why I
was 13. I mean.
It doesn't see anything interesting but something that
it does notice is that there is a very distinct set of animal
parents. Just a game trails that have
been leading the way in multiple directions.
Do we want to follow? There's Trails leading away from
here and apparently. We want to go look at those or
just go back and you're suggesting, we did sidetracked.
Wow, it wasn't circuit. I wouldn't have made the time I
get it. I support, you don't agree with
you, right? Honestly, what can I expect from
my own friends important for you right now?
There we go. I mean, oh yes.
Perfect. Fuck you Curtis II.
Don't even need to see what it is.
I know what it is. We do have a recently the
description we need to read the description at some point.
It doesn't need to be right now to underground things but
requires a drink. Huh?
So the game Trails, the bad pun man we are getting really
sidetracked already on the tonight.
But what are you guys thinking? We go back.
We get paid. If we can move on to bigger
stuff. If you're really curious about
this, we can come back after we get paid.
I like getting paid. It's kind of enjoyable to carry
around all this money and I could use some warm cash on
hand. Most of Mines going now.
And you got to build a new building.
Yeah. Well, half a building buying and
building buying and rebuilding a building is not cheap.
Apparently, I need new gloves to.
Okay, we'll go back. Don't forget my hunch.
I got it. Like I resituate getting my
horse stance. I switched my hands, so like
ones on the front ones on the back and I do a proper Sumo
deadlift, a good throwing up on my shoulder and Athletics check.
Yes sir. Hey you described it.
I'm not the one who decided that you wanted to do a deadlift that
is not acrobatics. What was it?
77. So are you tempted to throw this
over your shoulder? I'm attempting to slowly move it
towards my shoulder, so you're able to successfully get it up.
Yeah. It up on the show your shoulder
but then all of a sudden your momentum keeps you going.
Mmm. Had you land Square on your ass
as you drop the haunch behind you.
Am I in the water? Oh no.
You still. You're still in the ruins.
Where you guys killed the creature.
That's not like super close to the water.
It's probably 50 feet from the water.
At least the ruins are pretty solid.
So, I look over at Sid and I say um can you help me?
I think I'm good. Once I get it there, it's the
it's the still lifting at part if you re so says, no, come up
and start helping try to lift the Hong Kong.
So athletic checks either, you can either do them separate or
say or not, say it Patrice can have a badge.
I got a 17, okay. I got a 4 so the same thing
starts happening but what happens is that Sid catches
Patrice that you should be lucky that that's that Sid rolled
that. Hi Patrice.
Yeah. Stabilizes you right from
falling backwards. You know.
So, now you have it on your shoulders, there, anything,
anyone else would like to do here in the ruins?
Before we move forward, I've already had a doctor.
The boat had been following this point.
Like a halfway. Keeping Ellen, seidman halfway
to watching the entertainment that is Patrice.
Tried to pick up the haunch. Hamlet is actually split the
party. 100 my Throne. Yes, I'm walking back to the
boat because I had a feeling something like that would
happen. So it doesn't take you that long
couple hours to get back to the to the boat, see what time it
this point. It's getting close to dusk.
If I remember correctly of the second day so you have a choice,
the captain says she recommends that you should just stay where
you're at. Build a camp here on this safe
space and then you can cuz you'll be able to make it back
within a day. It's just better if everyone was
to take. Take the night rest here.
Yeah, well like, we're all in agreement.
That sounds good. Okay, so everyone gets their,
you know, get your hit points back all the benefits of a long
rest. The day Dawns, bright, hot, and
steamy, you actually can watch the Mist rolling off the river
as the temperatures rise, and it starts to warm for the day, but
the captain Brett has broken down her tent.
That's It's on the, on the on the boat and gets everyone
ready. She says, I do warn you Rapids.
Are a little bit more entertaining when we go back
because we won't ground again. We're going to stay on the boat
the whole time. So I when I tell you to, I need
you all to hold on. Something in the middle of the
SIDS. Gonna find a spot next to
Patrice kind of where appropriate Reese's.
She's gonna kind of hover Search man.
Risk it all this lanyard. Sark's going to stay in the
middle would be like nope. I plan on standing the entire
way down. So excuse me.
The she pushes off and she you join quickly into the flow of
the river or eventually just kind of.
She just all she really has to use her pole for is to kind of
keep your the the vehicle in the center of the of the river.
But eventually you begin to hear the Roar of the Rapids coming
and she says hold on What is everyone doing?
Besides Sark? Because I know he's standing
there being a teenager. Yes, I'm going to hold onto the
rail and keep an eye on patrice's.
Vertical Acumen. So for whoever is sitting down
and holding onto something, I need you to go ahead and make an
acrobatics check with advantage and force, our cutest, make it
acrobatics check. Oh, that's not good.
Maybe I should be next. I rolled a 27.
I know. 27 monks, man. Self, again, I wrote a 23.
Okay, sir is right, I wrote a 19 but I have a minus one
acrobatic. So I'm at 18.
Okay. And then UL, I got a dirty 20.
Wow, you guys all blue that? That DC away you can see.
So just for you guys as situational awareness, the ship
handling role that the captain rolled was a 23.
So she was able to expertly navigate and it's like it's
quite impressive. Especially even for those of you
who've been on ships before who are familiar with with Shipp
handling, but most of you aren't familiar with navigating
something like these Rapids, and she's able to keep the Fairly
it's just it's amazing how it's obvious that it's a rough ride
but it's like her ability to navigate the ship.
This is spectacular. Everyone is able to keep going
and actually Sark looks like he's just really enjoying it.
This kind of motion that he's got hands up but the rest of you
or as soon as you guys are done with the Rapids and you get back
into the flow, you notice how much quicker you removing
compared to when you were moving Upstream, you're able to move at
such a quick Pace that you'll probably be back in the city of
Haven, probably at about 3 ish in the afternoon. so, the rest
of the journey, though does happen uneventfully You arrived.
I believe you guys made payment already to the captain and the
in their company. Yeah, scold.
Yes. So this is be the, so you missed
the first day because of something.
Mmm. Second.
And then the second, this is now the third day.
So I'm assuming you probably don't know where you would be at
this point. So well, I probably would have
gone back to the blacksmith and drop my shit off.
Okay. As I missed the missed the
party. Yep.
Like here, take care of this shit.
So she could do the stuff. She was going to do for me.
And then honestly, I probably would have been hanging out
around town, looking for more work for us for when they got
back. So when they get back, I'm not
empty-handed when they go back. Yeah, so like if there's like
something that I can do that's like a day or two while they're
gone, I probably would have done that but I also have been
looking for other things for us to go off and do as a party.
So as a reminder, this is something that's called would
have known. Yeah, that there's already a
pretty solid plan. Yeah.
Working. So they get back.
So we're we're we're we're we're planning to head next in the
boat scalp would be looking for like, okay.
Is there something that we can purchase to take with us to
wherever we're headed? Perfect, that guy would make
looking not instantly jobs but like looking for something that
could make some more money. Like, hey, you know, like they
definitely have this limb in that those folks over there.
Make that these folks over here want.
And we're headed to where they're at.
You know, we also are going to try to figure out if there's any
like Back or we could pick. Yeah, from for Edwards Edwards,
right? Yeah.
There's anything anywhere. So, yeah, I'd probably be doing
something like that as well. So, why don't you go ahead?
Let me see what I want you to. I'm gonna have you roll some
stuff. so, For the tobacco. I'm gonna have you roll a nature
check for me. This would be just something off
of your bait knowledge. I have a feeling.
My nature is low. Nature isn't getting Oleg.
Yes. But I almost ate my D20.
It's not like there aren't chocolate D. 20s out there.
It's actually not bad. It's a 22 22.
Oh my role. Hot you so you know, in whoo.
Dan which is I believe where you guys were going to go first?
That there is a strain of tobacco that grows there.
Hmm, that is xh. Actually, I believe Sid got some
of it. It's a little bit of the
spicier. The mac.
Oh, so it's quite lovely. For those who like that kind of
a flavor it's definitely not like it's definitely not a
Maduro right? And then for the so if you were
looking like maybe, oh, here's something we go with me.
There's something I can get in Haven that I could bring to
them. That would probably these I'm
not even heavy rope that one, that would probably be a know
that about the only thing is maybe the specific wrong but
they really don't don't export that they keep that here but
there is go ahead and just make a general wisdom or do I want
something else? Hold on, I just need to have
like a big whiteboard up above here that I can look at Let's
just go with straight wisdom. Check.
That is a natural one. Hey, Jake motherfucker.
And me and Curtis are drinking the no more, no more.
I'm based go ahead and read that read the description of that
bottle because I think that's worth it.
Absolutely atrocious. Oh man, if you thought that
Miller was bad. Oh God.
It ain't got shit on this stuff. This is Boomer Peak
distilleries, bask no more. You've seen me drink my Lord.
The Lord has no effect on me, does not faze me.
And this stuff I'm like gig I give me a second.
I'm reading directly from what they printed on their own
bottle. All right, my gums are melting.
Yeah shit. A bitter, Swedish style liquor
made with wormwood and Chestnut honey at bomber Peak, we make
our basket with only the finest of ingredients.
And by being the expected Aromas of hairspray rate, higher fire
and ash tray, give it Ryan find out why everyone is saying it's
better but oh God, it's all so so much worse.
I appreciate it. Doesn't it doesn't last on the
tongue as much as malort does. But it like it's not.
Yeah, and that way to Mighty, huh, I drank half the bottle on
my on my birthday, official me, a people drank.
Half a bottle from our group. This is a sinking in so so you
would know so you would not know anything with that.
You don't know nothing 9 and the alcohol content is 4:20.
Yeah. Yeah.
And it's number how many of 420 420 body has its never 22, 420
bottles made. So so you said that there's a
rum that they don't generally export and I would know that
though, right? Yeah you were totally know that.
Yeah. Is there a way I can buy?
Whew casks definitely for our own consumption on the boat.
Definitely not for me to smuggle out of Haven.
Well, it wouldn't necessarily be smuggling because if you got
them on the boat you're finally gonna check what you're going to
need to do though is so you would probably go.
You would probably start somewhere.
I'm not sure which you probably need to go to one of the one of
the ends or taverns and see if by some up by a couple casks off
of them. Yeah.
So so I'm going to have you see, where do you want to start?
Which one do you want to start at?
The broken box or might be a good?
Yeah, I'm thinking the broken boxer.
Yeah, go ahead and roll a persuasion check for me.
It's not right? Only seven.
Yeah, they're they're not there. They're not willing to part with
any of their tasks of ROM but there are others.
Like seven bars. Should roll six more delicious?
See if I can get to my notes of the bars.
Babs. More notes.
The captain Harbor House. Edward, it's broken boxer part
and great. Fiery Thief, Bhajan bottle,
Mister Nancy's and Driftwood Mystic.
So you've been to badge in bottle for sure.
You down to mr. Nancy's, been de Driftwood.
Yep. Then to the broken box.
Yeah, I'm going to go back to the badge and bottle we go.
I feel pretty good. Rapport with the the, the staff
there, try that ahead. Go ahead and roll a persuasion
check for me. Please, that is a natural one.
Oh my God! You need, that should really
tell you something about it. I think Scout is just all up in
his head because he liked saw something cute and he got drunk
with that cute thing and then he missed like the Expedition and
he just feels like an asshole. So he's like walking into
swinging and missing trying to make up for it.
Everywhere he goes. All right, would you like to try
again being a fantasy game? So it's not real life.
Are you sure is this your is this not therapy?
This is not therapy. It's on people.
I've been gone. I mean, art imitates, life life
imitates art the same thing. So I'm gonna say the same thing,
it's all the same, you know what?
Let's hmm. I don't want to try.
Just do it until they get back. There's mr.
Nancy's? Yeah, let's go to mr.
Nancy's. Okay.
All right, 24. So after your frustrations and
you're just you just kind of like this is what I'm picturing
like skulls out there just right before he walks in the mr.
Nancy's is kind of pacing back and forth in front of the door.
Just talking to himself, like you just.
Yes, I cannot believe you motherfucker.
Deep breath. And all of that tension goes
away walks in and then puts on his most, beautiful smile and is
able to get roll a D6 for me. Six, you get seven, casks, nice.
Nice. All right, that feels better.
So you he asks, so the bartender, you know what it is
is he was, he was getting ready to open up the bar for the
morning. You were, you get went in there,
you bought a couple of shots and so he's going to ask you.
Where do you want these deliver to deliver them to the show?
Done. Thank you.
Appreciate you. They'll be they'll be there
within half an hour and how much, how much is that gonna run
me? Good question.
I've never, I've never sold a cask of booze and D&D before
their right first. Hang on.
I know there's a chart, from where of stuff at least for
reference height is this lunch times. - Ian bolt.
So a mug of Ale, which would be the closest equivalent, I think
it. No, actually would be pit pit.
A bottle of fine. Wine is ten gold pieces.
So we let that in half would go five gold pieces for a bottle.
How many bottles are in a cast? Probably 50?
Yeah. So we'll say so instead of 5 it
would be two hundred fifty gold pieces per task.
Ask yes. So 25 Platinum.
Yeah, that's the smaller than a barrel and a barrel is 40
gallons of liquid. Yeah.
Barrel of what I was thinking of my casket.
So you're saying about 250 gold Burke asked?
Yeah I think that sounds about right.
Let's see here. Hey, I can afford that I have
been cut. I had been quite generous to you
guys. You have each 7, casks, that
wasn't doing right for my well, that math in my head I was
looking to go Jesus. How much do I do?
You have fuck that's 175 Platinum that's gonna cost me
and I have plenty left over if it is left over.
The building and man having it renovated.
Say, here's here's the thing in the very first campaign than or
my first campaign with Matt. I hardly gave them any money.
So, ever since then, I give all kinds of fucking money, right?
Yeah. Them decide what kind of what
kind of rum is it? Do we have a name for it?
You want to just come up with a name for it?
They just call it special. Will you go to the bar?
You order. Can I get the special occasion?
Hayden, Haven Special Reserve. Nope.
Just special even special just special, right?
Because it's it really is like you have to kind of you have
been around Haven to know and the equivalency is kirkin
Sweeney. Out of character.
Can we call it the Harbor House? Special Reserve, Special
Reserve. Can call it whatever you want.
But in at every location, every every place that serves this,
it's this called the special it's made here in Haven.
Mhm. Cask of rum way.
Oh God, a lot of casual. Well, I'll get you the size of a
55 gallons of liquid, is approximately 50 pounds.
I believe that sounds about, right?
Little over as someone, who once had to Lug 25 gallon, Jerry cans
plus a 50 pound rucksack up, a hill.
Half mile, it's a lot. Yeah, yeah, that's ex out.
A little over five pounds per gallon of water to - around the
world round. That doesn't have two gallons
though it does. So 5 times, 8 is 40 pounds.
There we go, bath people. Why do I play the stupid math
game with the math rocks? When I don't do math because
it's still fun. Sure, we have this video math
for us. So scold.
Is there anything else that you would like to do?
Um I think I think skells probably pretty happy with
themselves at this point. You feel somewhat redeemed?
How long do we think the blacksmith was going to take on
that stuff? At this point?
We pipe, I'll let you have it. Yeah, I'd be ready.
You, I think you paid all in full for that front hole in my
pocket, with the money. So I just gave her the money
straight out and you were building the the rest of your
left side. We're yeah, yeah.
Oh yeah. Okay, I need you to roll a d-10
for me Scala. Hey.
Okay, cool. Thank you.
No problem. T.
Sometimes you guys don't get to know that the results of what
you wrote. That's what I'm all about.
History. With that as you were coming out
of mr. Nancy's and you see the you kind
of, you can kind of look down the alley and you see the casks
being loaded onto dollies scold. You hear some familiar voices
that are from behind you and as you turn around, you see the
five of you rest of your party members crawl coming up the
stairs of the landing that is directly across from the those
ruins where the Triton sit and that's where they are coming
from the rest of the day. You see them you see Patrice
lugging a massive green, scaled leg.
Okay. Someone carrying a head of a
creature and right there we're going to take our first break.
For the night and we'll be back in just a moment.
Welcome back to campaigns, concoctions everybody, where we
are just really excited about drinks.
And we are comparing notes about the stuff that we love and
Curtis is insulting my culture. So that's exactly, you're
insulting my delicious trash. And I got the chicharron and
Pitbull. Mazes is not.
My trick is not my culture, man. I'm not Mexican.
I'm just saying, like the other day, I feature on solution.
I gotta give you shit. I gotta give you shit.
All right, so what have we got rolling gentleman for drying?
I got one. Let me pull it up here.
I made. What's called a low and slow
sour both spelled with ease because there With Sloe Gin.
Made from slow berries. M.
Where we are is that trash? Okay, it's a one and a half
ounces of Plymouth gin1 oz of acid adjusted grapefruit.
One ounce of pomegranate syrup made by Jarrett.
Dutterer. Point 75 ounces of Plymouth Sloe
Gin and one ounce of egg white. You do a dry shake and then you
add some ice and then you shake it again, and then you double
strain. You put it in your glass, you
garnish it with some drops. S of angostura and I tried to
float, some pomegranate seeds on top, like my buddy Jared did the
other day and it didn't work out because my phone's not as good.
It's kind of what I'm noticing. A let it settle in this, you
should try this to taste this and say, okay, let's try again.
He just doesn't want to kill me. It's taste that until much
thing. It's really close to the drink.
I mean, the nice. Hmm, but yours is prettier now?
65 no, not this one. Um, I can't remember names.
Anyway, the other drink I made is called a check yourself spell
with a CZ. I'm going to, I'm told, I'm
supposed to read, read, read do that.
But that's all right. At the moment, I was just talked
about where it's from, not not the name of the cocktail, okay?
The. The numbers are one and a half
ounces of Sparks, Sparks, balder gin, which is a German gin, the
monkey 47, or whatever. It's called, point 75 ounces of
Zuko rhubarb Arrow which our friend Morgan doesn't like a
half ounce of petrovka to to some bar stones of luxardo syrup
the stuff that comes out of luxardo cherry jar.
Two dashes of grapefruit, bitters then a grapefruit twist
and it's garnished with that grapefruit twist.
Just on a pic with a luxardo, cherry on a pick.
And I think it is delicate and delightful.
Okay, I made when I came up with this is an idea I had a long
time ago and finally made it happen like a month ago.
It's called the poppy sour. It's 1 ounces of light, rum 1
oz, dark rum ounce of lemon juice and ounces of semi-sweet
Demerara syrup 3 dashes of orange bitters and an egg, white
and a half tea. Spoon of poppy seeds and you
shake that up dry Shake first, add ice and then Shake again
with With ice and then top it with a poppy seed, sprinkled on
top with a rolled-up lemon-peel expressed on top and I put down,
I'm picking and stick it into the coop.
It's like drinking foamy boozy candy.
It's so delicious and pretty, so, And it's good that that
would kill me if I just had access to that.
Yeah but what does the Japan has to make?
We all be drunk all the time but that bad, how many how many, how
many touches especially for Jared?
Who is like a 15? Touch drinking five, six seven,
eight nine. Okay.
It's a double guns that killed me pretty good for Jared.
That was really sweet. Mmm, this was the desert.
Those are the three beverages we have on the table and that we're
good. So I have extravagant ideas that
I must do. Well, it's the think it's the
difference between being a home, a home bartender - yeah a
professional, right? Because like your we just
wouldn't there's no way even with like if you watch ever
watched John work. Yes, even his most complex stuff
doesn't seem to take that much. So well I'm as We Roll Along the
six at the five of you who have just finished coming back from
the the river is are seeing scold with now a full left arm
of plate armor that has Taken on that darkish with the great
beautiful inlay that he has of cousin artworks.
The light John, it's definitely like fully like matte black, but
Ultra matte silver and like a deep deep, like almost black
purple inlay in it, like Krakens basically going all the way up
the arm cracking and tentacles going all the way up, the arm,
multiple cracking motifs, all over.
Place, where's the eyeball? Hmm.
No, eyeball. I don't think it's like a focal
point. Okay, the crack itself is the
focal point. Mmm.
More about the tentacles suckers.
Yeah. Where do the hentai?
Yeah, yeah, we know you in full, hentai long time.
That whole hand side That's going to look at look up it.
It's gonna have you been here the whole time?
Yeah. I kind of expect you to just
show up with us at some point. Yeah, I missed the boat but
people fucking disappear and reappear here all the time I
just overslept happens. Yeah, I did.
However get us seven casks of the special so we can sell when
we're in wood in. That's the special.
It's a really expensive rum, but you can only get here in Haven,
so I'll make a couple bucks off of my, oh yeah.
We have to drink all of that before we get to where we're
going. I got us one Cask to drink and
six, casks, the cell. I'm expecting that the profits
off of the six. Should at least cover the one we
drink. Sure II think it'll definitely
more than cover the costs of that cast.
That will drink. I just don't think that one cast
will last our group, very long, considering the way I've seen us
drink recently. I mean, you do realize I have
like seven bottles of liquor in this bag, right?
I didn't realize that, but it does not surprise me given how
late you sleep into the day, that was nothing to do with
that. That's just cause mornings a
fucking awful. Tomato tomato potato drunk guy.
It doesn't matter if I've been drinking or not Morning Sun but
we can all agree that booze army.
Yes we all agree buzu this is more booze.
Yes. Yes.
Oh shit. That was supposed to be in
character, my bad. Just some random guy.
No it was a rare and it was a random wood elf that was walking
by the city. Yes.
He nodded his head and he walked by and didn't even turn around
again. They were a very androgynous
person who was walking by, who was gorgeous to all.
And he just said and they just said, yes, yes.
What color? Hue to the wood elves have on
their skin. There are Bron juice bronzes
shhhh shhhh, but there is that one drink.
It's still, I mean, it is a diverse group of people, so it
could be all kinds. But like, if you're looking at
the traditional, what you would see in traditional artwork of
white passing, they're more, they're more bronzy of of
complexion while the High Elves are a little bit more Pasty,
Mmm, think of most of y'all for High Elves, Fair Point.
Yeah. Fair Point.
They also have a slight Hue of, like, pastel colors going with
it too. I don't like traditional elves.
I like them to have a little bit more Panache.
That's why the drow or way Doper in this world than anyone else.
All of those are two or lower Morgan.
Anyway, so we're going to go. - Chef lady the mushrooms, so she
makes us dinner. Is it generates almost dinner
time the leg? We better get there quickly as I
say, under a terrible strain. Okay, first with let's go.
So, you knew that when you were to bring back everything, you
were to go to the back of the restaurant, not through the
main, the main entrance. There's that kind of back alley,
that that supports all of those restaurants and bars and taverns
and shops along the, that that kind of L-shaped main
thoroughfare of Hayden. And you're able to cause this
one's the one that's facing the bay Driftwood.
Pretty much almost looks out directly.
Onto where the cherlene is docked.
So, you're able to get back there.
There's a little Alleyways between all of these shops.
They're not all of them, but it up next to each other and as you
get to the to the door, the door is open and you see there's some
some of the kitchen staff that are like they're peeling
potatoes. They're they're doing that
typical prep work. Work before dinner service pops
up because it's about hearing about an hour and a half, or so.
Is when they'll open up for dinner, there's that Ambience.
Here is to pick it up. Trust me, I can hear it.
It's good. Yeah.
It's not a dry Shake. It's allowed stick in the back
door driftwood. Go, we got mushrooms for you and
we solved the animal problem thing.
I'm just going to hold up the head over L and you watch his as
some of the, some of the kitchen staff were just there taken
aback. And then Here Comes Chef in her,
in all her glory apron, and huge, meat cleaver, and she's
like select. And she is, she is zoned in on
the bags of mushrooms that you guys have.
She is ready for it, right? We brought this leg back.
The blood was kind of a city but I don't know if somebody can
cook it as probably you. So if you want to try to cooking
some massive monster things, that was eating the people
eating very much getting your mushrooms.
That'd be cool. How adventurous of an eater are
you? I've been told I'm supposed to
try new things. There's, this is one of those
things that if I cook it in correctly, it may kill you.
If I die, I die. So I was like fine.
We'll do it one at a time. I appreciate your
adventurousness. Well, thanks for good.
Kind of, does that classic French chef of the And one of
the head waiter shows up and she has, she has the head waiter
direct you to their personal washroom which is, it's
basically a full Living Spaces, washroom where you guys can all
get cleaned up and you guys can get up.
She's gonna sit you guys down in the private room.
After you guys get washed up and she's gonna prep something
special for the six of you. As well.
Lucky quickly to drop the head when I pack off because I'm
keeping the head for other reasons.
She doesn't get it. so after you guys wash up, clean up, you as
taking back to this to this, lovely back room that has kind
of like You know how I like to have the the Japanese dividers
in rooms and kind of those those traditional houses that you see
that have like the there there don't even know how to describe
wall partitions, you know? And that's what separates this
room so you can actually look into in the way that the wood of
this partition is divided. You can actually look into the
rest of the dining room while the other side can't see you.
It's kind of that. Well, you know, a good Craftsman
can make it to a mirror without a mirror, so you're seated and
quickly bottles of wine and it looks like some sort of liqueur
kind of Have a light pink in color comes out upper teeth.
Yes, it's almost like a it's a peach like limoncello kind of
thing. Mmm.
The wine is white in light and delicious quickly, like a spring
salad and and some octopus grilled octopus appetizers or
made out for you and then eventually the chef comes in
with two of her staff to lay out this dish in front of you.
And it looks like somehow each one is individually cut.
So there's a individual steak that is laid out in front of
you. Along with some rice, some
roasted vegetables. And within that rice, in a sauce
that is covering the steak, you can get that earthy Aroma of
these, like mushrooms. The closest thing I can tell
you, when you do taste them, like if you taste the mushrooms
off of, it would be black truffle would be the closest
that you could probably get. I almost double cheese.
I almost did. I'm sorry, is someone someone
want to experiment with this? And she tells you that how its
prepared, you know, as much as I do like to cook.
I don't feel like going into that because I could get lost in
the description and I don't think that's a good thing.
So we're not gonna come back, get lost in the braise, hmm.
I feel like scold. I both look at each other and
then go for the first bite. My God, I got twins.
Healing word on on unlock. So as the two of you take a
bite, it is tender. And moist in the texture is just
done, right? It's it reminds you almost of
like pork like a pork chop. And if you would both of you
guys would roll a history check for me, please, when you get a
chance one second there. I got Blowing.
This, since I finished my drink here.
See, I'm like, I'm like, John and Curtis.
When I take a shot, I drink decent stuff.
I got s ballon tequila. Hmm, I see the bottle.
I've got The reposado little person.
Now, I know exactly what you're talking about, because I can see
the John. I know she like that
motherfucker. Yeah, sure.
You get a picture. Mmm-hmm foam is so thick and
what, what, what was yours? L, 24.
So, both of you have experienced this, where And this is this is
actually Morgan speaking from experience.
Generally speaking things that have a Venom or an acid with it,
have a little bit of spice her heat to it.
So it's there with it but it's balanced out by the earthiness
of the sauce. The mushrooms sauce that is with
it and it is probably the best thing that neither of you have
ever which says, something is either.
Both of you have been around around and have gone to places.
And no, you do not die because she rolled a 22 to thank you.
It was a 19 on the die. Dude.
I love that. There's a majority of the table
to ask the worry about phone in the mustache.
You can you post my mustache to the Discord?
So ice as the, the six of you are already using this wonderful
meal, is there anything that the six of you would like to discuss
scalp? We're ready to go to tomorrow.
You think it's true? I don't see why we wouldn't be.
I think we've kind of, you know, I it's I think it's time to go.
I don't think we have anything else left to do other than maybe
hire some contractors. I need a new gloves.
Also, you have a new ring that we need to hear about that.
Did you get a chance to identify his ring?
Yeah. L don't think we have here.
I forgot about that. Yeah, I can probably do that
now. Well, after I finish, yeah, I
mean this is, but we've already, we already ate, we already had
our gay porn Montage of eating mushrooms and and whatever acid
crawler. So at the, at this point, the
chef comes back in with a key, lime pie, Morgan espresso.
And orange cello. I'm hungry again right now.
I do a pretty good job of feeding.
My characters. I went to gallop the other day
and they make their own limoncello and it is
spectacular. I was slightly disappointed with
Gallo. It was really really, really
good, right? But it wasn't what I was hoping
for but the limoncello made it wonderful.
Pomegranate arils. Oh fuck.
Yeah, nice. Nice Jerry.
Look it up. I would also be called Well, the
court because I guess, yeah, to is got to see it in the, and
the, and the sorry I digress. Yes.
We're nerds about everything. If you haven't caught a, yeah,
we all have our nerdiness. So, what are, what are you going
to do with this ring? Al, we're cast.
Well first, can I tell if it's magic?
I don't know if we did. Yes it is.
Okay. Then I will cast identify.
You know, it's like a dragon ring if I'm not mistaken.
Oh, Yes, it ring from the dragon bar.
We handed over to yeah, one surname.
That's right. Yeah.
It is, it looks like a dragon's kind of like skull.
I'm remembering my descriptions, right?
Because I forget my own fucking descriptions.
It's a dragon skull now. Try to remember the spell
identify accept it. You're able to tell if there are
any spells on it. How it was created School of
magic? Well, there's no school.
It is Magic but there is no school of magic.
So one of the fun things about magic in these multiple planes
that we have is that there's a few elements That create Magic
without falling into the ideals of the schools because even
though the schools are a couple Millennia old, they're still new
in the terms of magic. So and you would know this
because just because of the nature of your study L.
Yeah. So the big ones are there
certain types of druidic power that are kind of natural magic
and then there's kind of this Primordial magic that the Arcane
kind of derives from and this kind of oozes that primordial
Magic. It says you learn its
properties. Yeah, sometimes we have to we
have to fudge that a little bit because there's this is outside
the bounds of your knowledge, right?
So the biggest the biggest problem here is that It's like
when you were first like if you were to be a twelve-year-old
hearing, someone talk about quantum mechanics, right?
Okay, I have and not like some gifted Sheldon Cooper,
twelve-year-old bright, like an average 12 year old.
I talked to, my quantum mechanics, two days ago.
So yeah, so you actually do understand like that.
You are learning the The properties of this magical item.
You just don't understand what it is, right?
It's above and beyond what it's going to take for you to
understand it. At this particular moment.
Do I get indication of what, like, a trigger might be for it?
It. So it's it's the use of it.
Like how to activate it. You do understand, you could you
could right now use it. If you were to attune to it it
does require an Attunement. You just don't know what it
would do. Cool.
Then I will hand it back to Sonic and tell him, it requires
it. Yep, you gotta tune to it.
But here's how you activate it. Don't know what the fuck it
does. So probably not in here.
We should do it in that Shack. Guys have just in case on.
I don't know if I have enough money to rebuild it at the
current moment. I had money.
Okay, right. Pause because I haven't written
down with stumbling across it for looking for the ring stuff.
I don't keep the head because she was going to pay me 200.
Something like 200 gold for the head.
Yeah, that's right. Mushroom.
How much was it for mushroom, five, silver.
And we got three and a half pounds.
Yeah, 21 and a half. You and I got like a half when
you can scratch the prep, like the reward of the mushrooms and
that's dinner. I want the 200 for the head, so
you got the two hundred for the head.
Okay, mushrooms. Are light to yeah.
Like we much, I would say, maybe 50 a pound.
Well, whole mushrooms, probably not that much sliced mushrooms.
Maybe. Depends on the size, the
mushroom true. Active game will say I'll just
give you another 250 gold for those mushrooms or Beautiful by
6. And find a very specific word
that I can't find it. So plans and is a gold piece.
So 85 gold piece. You're right, Matt.
That's where the head and the mushrooms and it's 75 gold.
So we're planning on leaving here going to Rio again.
Go through the back door and of the caves again and still in a
bunch of residual, then root. And then C'mere, c'mere.
I don't know if I like the word steal.
But yes, maybe appropriate pure. That's a good one.
We got sick. Could procure residual.
We're going to borrow with no intent to return.
Yes, with the intent to sell at a profit of all profit.
I'm keeping something. But well, yeah, I mean you got
it. You got to drop it.
That's true. You got it.
You got to sample the goods, right?
You have to know if it's pure uncut.
Residual head. You got to rub it on your teeth.
I don't think I've ever seen anyone do that with residual, I
have a distinct and what that would do I was wondering what I
do between you versus me. I'll rub it on my teeth.
I don't think we need to fight but I was most Annex Well, it
would, it might work differently for us than for you but, you
know, I won't, yeah. My venue for get enough.
Maybe you'll get plus 1 to B + 12 by sorry, buddy, shaking his
head. Like you motherfucker.
Just. Shut up.
Yeah, let's do that. You guys can hope and wish that
doesn't mean that shit's actually going to happen.
No, of course. It's not over the course of our
goals. Our hopes our dreams as our
nature. We just assume we're going to
win it lightly for you, shut up on my dreams.
Yeah. I love the scene in equilibrium,
right? We have.
Does anybody have anything else? I know you need new gloves.
Anything else that we need to do while we're here?
I know you need to close brilliant.
Now then go get gloves before we set sail in the morning or
tonight, I don't have any more still open.
I mean all I want to do is say goodbye to my mom and then I'll
see you guys later. See you guys later the boat.
I will check the forge before we go back but otherwise we'll be
waiting for them in the morning. Okay.
Anyone else got anything they want to do?
Well, spend money. Well, what do you want to spend
money on? Is the question I'm holding for
special clubs. I'm not expecting special teams,
are just hoping for special Clips.
I mean nothing really should we've checked, everything and
everything's pretty. We bought out so carry on.
Part of our plan is to go to some of the places you can buy
anything. Yes.
Yeah I'll hold on to my money. Okay, so I well I mean it is
early enough in the evening that if Sark wants new gloves, you
can get new gloves. I will go do that if it's early
enough. Just so I'm not holding up the
boat leaving first at first, dance, make sense.
So the best place to get gloves is the same place you get the
rest of your armor, which is going to be the blacksmith.
Master. Luke is her name, Master Lindor.
Like the chocolate. Just like the chocolate, a
little chocolate. Sausage to put chocolate in
here. So, I want to leave here
John-Boy, I should have done from the cacao.
I should've done, creme de cacao with the pomegranate, so, As you
walk in Master Lin, door is starting to close down the forge
for the evening so that the Roaring fire is actually more
now of a dull orange as everything is starting to, to
wrap down the three gnomes who are in the back believe.
They were gnomes who are who were pumping the Billows have
now come out and they're kind of cleaning up the the front space.
She greets you as she is. I get this point like her apron
is no longer up and it's kind of sitting down and she's you know
as always wearing the in Universe equivalent of Dickies
in a sports bra and her musculature is quite impressive.
Those of you who have if you've found a lesbian Lumberjack
Tick-Tock you'll know what I'm talking about.
Don't I don't know how I ended up there but I'm very happy.
Happy I did of one of their Christmas videos.
Yes. That would happy holidays.
Hmm. That's exactly one or John knows
Claire on Twitter. Yeah, that's maximum exactly.
So, shout out maximum, clear. Your, your you were awesome and
you're the inspiration behind this woman.
So she is comes up to greet you and she kind of dwarves or even
you, she kind of towers over you.
She is a Goliath. I'm average height.
I'm not surprised by this. She's not alive that she was
half. Work have worked, that's
correct. Yeah I think so.
She's one of the to Sochi Schrodinger's half-orc Goliath
right in half. They have she's a hand Goliath
half-orc. The very first one we've ever
created in D&D. She is factored big buff.
Lady with with cool tusks. And so she greets you into the
into the store and she asks, you what you need and she directs
you over to the gloves and she has quite a few.
She tells you that she actually does not make the gloves
actually. One of the one of the Gnomes
does most of most of the really intricate leatherworker done.
By the Gnomes and there is a plethora of gloves, everything
from a simple brown leather fingerless, two colored died,
colored leather gloves that a Aristocrat would wear.
So basically tell me what you're looking for and I will tell you
if they have it. Okay, one the greeting sir gives
you the once-over but not the like you're hot.
It's the you have very interesting muscle groups.
Attractive, are you citing her up sort of Gloves, I would be
looking at either. I probably get a set of just
plain leather fingerless and then a set of like reinforced
workman's fingerless and crap if there's not anything Special as
far as non mundane other than the quality of the
craftsmanship. There's nothing special about
these gloves. So, yeah, just like, reinforced,
basically. I want my Knuckles reinforced
Workman's gloves style and then a set of planning fingerless.
So total for all of that three gold pieces, I leave five
behind. Okay?
Cool. Cool cool.
You've met things in hurry up tonight.
Keep them. All right.
So Patrice I'm going to stop you Whispering about drinks.
I get that. But we're trying to play some D
and D here and record a podcast. And I think I'm bitter because I
don't get a drink. All the drinks.
So, Morgan. I have been on a sweet drink,
like Roll All Nite. You would love every single one
of the drinks, except the one I made.
I said, I made a, I made another one, moving, I hate that.
So Patrice. You said you wanted to go say
goodbye to your mother. I did Sora.
Store du Z Ora. Oh sorta.
Okay. I thought you said sort of Laura
Laura. So if it's now, you don't have
to refresh my memory here of her personality.
It's been a while since I've read your background.
Is she a doting kind of concerned mother or is she go
halfway between a hippie and intellectual and an artist
somewhere in the middle of those three be fine?
Yeah that's the first thing I thought of to Nate.
No I haven't met your mother but we've talked about Her enough
that that was my first thought. So as you go home, You walk in,
and your mother is there. It's still early enough that the
broken boxer is not really hopping yet, so it's probably
just the fellas there at the bar, but your mom is there and
she turns around and the glow of Happiness caresses her face as
she looks at you. She says, You've been on an
adventure, haven't you? You little bad.
I've been, I've been trying new things, I've been, I've been
kind of seeking out new stuff, mom, you know?
It's been good. That is exactly what I've always
wanted for you. You have been so caught up in
here and now and trying to be a, it's great to be present.
But at times, you need to explore and seek out new things.
You know, Mom it took a while. I think I'm part of me was
scared. And and part of me was just
really focused, but I met some new people and it's going really
well. We're, we're doing good things.
Making a difference and quite a bit of money to.
So that's, I mean, I mean, that's not your concern and it's
more dad's concern. But like they do not I have more
money than I've ever seen in my entire life, right now.
Well why money cannot buy? You happiness.
Money can buy things that bring you Joy like this?
Delicious mushrooms. I just had holy shit.
They're delicious, did you, did you go to the Driftwood?
Oh man. Oh hey, I've been trying to get
your father there and he just doesn't want to go.
Well I'm gonna I'm Gonna Leave to platinum on the counter for
you and and and you just put a little note on there to take me
to Driftwood and then he's gonna have to Carl's just gonna have
to get off his ass and take you. I like this new spunkiness that
you have son. Yeah.
I'm a little, I'm a little less
reserved. It's true.
It's nice when you have the opportunity to really explore
every aspect of yourself. And when you come back, I look
forward to learning about your adventures because I have I
sense that you have places to be Yeah, they're good at some
things to do. So, uh, we're we're headed to
headed out for a while. I'm going out to sea, we'll be
back. And who knows?
When maybe a month, maybe two or longer, but it's going to be
it's going to be a long journey. So just thought I'd stop in and
say hi and tell you that I love you and give you a kiss on the
cheek and say you're a great mom.
And so she reaches and grabs from a hook in your house, kind
of like this would thing that hangs.
And she grabs this like silk scarf and says, I know that you
have a hard time sometimes controlling that wildness that's
on the top of your Dome, this should help.
What color is it? What color do you think she
would have? Because I don't know your mom as
well as you do. I haven't heard, there you go.
It's lavender then. A little bit of lace on the
outside music. or soaked, like Sounds good to me.
Aye. I put it around my neck and just
kind of let it hang down for the time being and I'll find a good
place for it to be but thanks I really appreciate that.
So nice, I will I will treasure it.
And with that, we'll take our second break of the night and
we'll pick up with departing in the morning.
Woohoo. Welcome back to campaigns and he
cautions everyone where we are a table full of booze right now.
So please tell me what you guys are drinking right now,
Instagram on the table, and then her belly.
And then we just added four more to that.
You know, their loans and of the last segment, I'm calling us.
Persephone's ruination. It's 1 oz loves Slivovitz.
Plum, brandy, 1 ounce, how could Subaru plum wine 3/4, Oz, lemon
juice, half an ounce of gargoyle plum.
Brandy, half, ounce aperol, half ounce of pomegranate syrup.
Honestly, if I had had more pomegranate syrup, I apply I
would have done like three quarters of an ounce to an ounce
and left out the gargoyle most Likely but we that was the last
of the pomegranate syrup and then one egg white.
Thank you Jared. Yeah thank you Jared dry shake
and then wet shake and strain up the picture that you're going to
see is in a martini glass. I fucking hate martini glasses,
they suck, they're useless but I don't have any coops here yet
because I took all my coops to the bar because we didn't have
any there and I'd rather make money and put our drinks and
slightly less, pretty glasses. But I would probably put this in
a coop and then I garnished it with a lemon twist that I
Floated on top of the foam and used as a bed for pomegranate
seeds to go in are like arrows, pomegranate, Jared Jared, two
days ago. So give me a break.
Close to areolas. We should we should remember.
Yeah, we should. It was very tasty.
I might also switch it up and maybe add a new switch it up and
take out the lemon juice and instead replace it with like a
lime acid orange juice and Dad. I know, I'd forgot that it was
there until after I'd made it and then also add some creme de
cacao to it because I think the pomegranate, the creme de cacao,
the orange juice and the plum together is going to make this
really nice like sweet dark chocolate sort of flavor
profile. So next time that we have
pomegranate syrup, we'll see if we can't make that happen.
All right, next. All right.
Um, so I decided to name this. This I've been playing with this
drink in actually Discord, so if you aren't Discord, please, do
we post princess, we make them at home.
So this one I named tonight, the northern expanse because I feel
like it's finished one ounce rye, whiskey, one ounce Reposado
tequila point, five ounces of Verna point, 7, 5 oz, simple
syrup 2 to 3 and Dashes angostura Bitters and then two
to three ounces. Sorry dashes from Walnut,
visitors stirred and strain into a chilled glass.
Lemon peel and expressed on top. It's perfect.
It is delicious. No, like, this is a perfect
drink. This is really good.
It's perfectly balanced, it's not.
It's everything you want. It's just right?
Yeah, it's rock-solid do. That's what I found is called
right now. So good.
I also made a I call it a South by Southwest our Jesus Christ.
A nod to shit. What Pippins real name?
Yeah cure heroin. Yeah yeah.
His real name is peregrine know the actor.
Is it But in master commanders to South by Southwest and I just
love it. So this is called a South by
Southwest the drink. I was thinking Hitchcock South
by Southwest in Austin. Yes.
Reason is called a South by Southwest is because it's got
the Tavia are Iraq which is a rum like drink from Indonesia.
It has 2% Rye in the mash. Bill are not Rye 2%.
Add rice in the mash Bill I've not tasted anything like it.
It it's really interesting. It's super interesting and it
needs to be explored more by this continent.
Yes. So one of the Pacific Lee, Yeah.
By John specifically 1.5 ounces of Batavia are Iraq point. 75
ounces of lime juice point. Five ounces of averna point five
ounces of cherry Herring point. Five ounces of luxardo syrup
from the jar. An egg-white two dashes of
cherry Pitter. Is dry Shake.
I shake double strain into glass garnish, with Ango drops on the
top. I didn't put a cherry on a pick
in there. I don't think it needs it.
No, I don't think so. I think it was very tasty.
Very basic, really good. I like it.
I've never tasted anything like it.
It's so good. I also made another Plum drink.
So, I did this time I did the gargoyle, plum, brandy, and what
was the name of this one? This desert plum wine, the Troy.
Oh sure. Yeah, choya it, which is a
desert Palm lines, very sweet Plum line.
So I did that with the gargoyle plum, brandy I did some crème de
Cow. I did some lemon juice.
And again, forgot about the goddamn lime acid orange juice.
It should be the lime acid orange juice, and I didn't egg
white on that one as well, because Curtis was complaining
about not being able to go to get good foam on his egg whites
hours. So, I had to put an egg white in
there to show him how to do it. So, John explained that you want
to break the seal. Hmm.
When you're doing your dry, shaver ordering.
Don't drink it dry Shake during the dry shake.
You want to breathe the engineer?
Are, you know, the gas expands? You got to give us somewhere to
go. Dude, my gas expands all the
time I'm aware. But when you're, when you're the
reason that you put citrus with an egg white, and by the way,
you should always do about three, quarters of an ounce of
citrus to one egg white interest.
It's the same concept of Ceviche or meringue, right?
So essentially, the Citrus in our, the acid in the Citrus is
cooking. The egg white, which is what
keeps you from getting salmonella, but it essentially
turns it into a meringue whip. And that cooks, it's effectively
cooking, the egg white, which means that it is releasing gas,
which is part of what makes it foamy.
And if you don't give that gas acne were to expand to other
parts, you can't, you gotta fart your 10.
It will the gas will actually crush the phone and that's why
you don't get a good foam is because the pressure is crushing
the phone back down into itself. It for if anyone who doesn't
believe that there is plenty of evidence of cultures, who cook
their fish in acid, in citrus acid and it's Yes.
So the beach day is complete. There is no heating.
Process is only cooked in acid. It's exothermic reaction, right?
Which adds heat. So it actually does bring it up
to temperature and it gets right.
So I'm gonna cook soft bacteria listeria because it's done over
a certain amount of time. I don't know if you guys know
anything about, like, there's a heat time versus temperature
graph. The USDA put it out, you do not
need to cook your meat to 100. 65 degrees.
No, you don't ever. Never no.
All you need to do is you need to let it sit at the right
temperature for the right amount of time, right?
And you get your your turkey to 145 and you get it there for 15
minutes or so you don't get dry turkey, right?
Yep. This.
So there's, there's a curve if you want to look it up, it's on
Serious Eats. Dominic, Angie Lopez.
It's also know the Food Lab book.
You do not need to heat your food, so that is so dry that you
can't. Eat it same way when you're
making Ceviche or duck or doc Gooden got yeah, right.
Like you don't want to contribute.
You see Brock yes/no vote on steaks you sons of bitches.
Yeah, fuck you. Yeah, seriously, but yeah,
that's yes. If you like it, we'll go down
there. We'll go down that rabbit hole
eventually at some point. Oh yeah, podcast conversation.
I'm not that good of an editor. So time-consuming Yeah, no shit.
So at this point, you guys have now here's the fun part.
So you guys have taken your next long rest.
After completing dinner visits, and all that stuff and I
believe. Yeah, so level 7 Love, accept
this role for health. Let's see if I figure what we'll
do for the rest of the majority of this.
This last bit is we're going to we're going to level up stuff
because 515 comes very early on a Monday morning for Morgan.
It does. Yeah.
Not bad under her. Half but better than I did last
time. Nice also remember re-roll ones
on your hit points. Anyone roll the one I got for.
Didn't sound like it. So did I I gotta for you have
three. I'm at 50. 35 Plus 9.
Seven. I feel like is one of the least
exciting levels up for most care.
For most classes are evasion. I'm stoked about it.
For her to throw three or I mean Patrice world of three Bell,
Road 3 and start role to for. So we've got to make sure that
Matt roles before next session for my next session I should
say. So Yeah, the good stuff at this
point, I got Flash of Genius. Also, if anyone's doing weird
multi classy stuff, let me know off camera and we'll get that
squared away. And given reason to me, same is
same as myself. If I'm given a reason to
multi-class then then we'll talk Morgan.
Good. Okay?
I don't know where you would be going, Curtis.
I think we're hitting a lot of your stuff without having to
multi-class. So that's exactly what I was
thinking. I was like, if we get to a point
where I feel like I need to murder more than and support
less than I'll where I need to be or if I'm starting to get
beat up more and I need to be tougher than I might need to
multi-class. But until that day, you just
take tough. Fair point but you know I can
only take a feet every other ASI.
Yeah, so it's really hard to take tough.
I do that on purpose. I need it out with my shoulders
and my head I can do that. You'll wipe or dance.
It's a little bit more rickety with you.
I bet though. Oh yeah.
I have less flow less Rhythm everything but believe the term
the children are using is ratchet ratchet ratchet.
Jesus, I am not that's a while ago.
John that one that one's old grow the joke that was the joke
even heard ratchet. I've never heard it once until
now, amazing Curtis, you are very white and old.
I'm older, I know. But like four days, you'd 11:49.
Some confusion. Fourth, the fourth.
Oh, You're 12 days. Older say, two weeks.
Two weeks. Almost.
Hey, I'm a minute older than my twin, so it's all good.
Hmm, that's all you need. So before we roll on, does
anyone got questions? Comments, concerns.
Level up stuff. That's right.
No, we talked to Mom, we're good.
Let's go really want to see someone use Perry.
Oh shit. I gotta pick up.
So we're so what is the the order of movement that we were
talking about? I know there was a couple of
plans, there was one where you go to, whoo, Dan first.
And then to, to rügen, or rügen to than to Rutan.
He was rooting for ass. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Whatever makes the most sense. Will you graphically?
Yes, like Catherine? Mackenzie can advise us as?
Exactly our stuff. Like here's our points of order
and I know we have to hit rugen before we hit Ting her hair.
So where are we going? So basically we're your best bet
is gonna go to kind of you to take a, you'll take a big swing
and then you're going to go airborne and you're going to go
to Bhutan, you're going to go to the three say to one of the the
main city that you're going to go to because it's pretty much a
direct straight Northern shot and then coming back south
you're going to go to the South and The East will take you to
rügen and then from rugen it's almost it's a little bit less of
a straight shot, but still pretty straight down to at a
minimum, the teacher Mary, an outpost on the northern coast of
see can and then that can direct you guys to where you need to go
from there. But Captain Mackenzie can get
you there as well, because he is, obviously been to at least
bear Haim and most likely to Tinker mirror.
Sounds good. I would do first.
It is then. so, the captain Steers the ship nearly directly
south. And for about the first two
hours, you guys are going in the wrong direction.
But eventually he takes a big star bird swing.
And you hear the that creaking sound of wood as things.
Begin to turn and twist and eventually You feel at first,
the momentum of the ships Loadout but eventually as you
begin to shift there is a gentle lift as the ship begins to take
off from the water. I believe that for Patrice and
Sid at a minimum these are the first time you guys have been
not auntie Been flying off with. I know scold definitely has been
on the air Shauna's on a sky ship before Airship.
Some, she didn't even know about it really that way.
And then definitely and then 4L and Sark, you guys have probably
been on one of the managers from one side of particular, to the
other probably and to get it down to Haven, probably?
Yeah, then. Yeah.
There's a, there's a day there. Is a daily trip that leaves
Tinker mirror on the Airship that goes to Haven.
And then as you exit the water, you notice that both fore and
aft below where the water line is additional sales have opened
up, and it's quite spectacular and it is a very smooth and
very, very interesting sale as you guys begin to gain altitude
and eventually fly. Lightly over Hayden, giving you
a very unique and interesting perspective of the city for most
of you have not or some of you have not had before.
You see if I can find our ship here lartius.
Well I think I figured out why your math doesn't work for those
of you who are listening, you would get the idea.
Imagine the ship from Treasure Planet but with a few more sales
hanging off of it. So the the closest that you
would see, and I'll post this in the Discord, but we shall see.
This is the closest that you're going to see.
You guys would look at the screen Grace.
I wish I would have had a screenshot nice of Nate's face.
When you said that well, you know, you know, who put me on
that movie. Yeah, it was literally Priceless
though. So if you look at the screen
here, you guys should be able to see this ship.
It doesn't quite look like that. But with the sales, Sort of do
so. Hey down like like thins from a,
from a walrus or seal? Yep.
As a very good comparison. I don't know enough about
Anatomy to say that what kind of thin they are, nor I I would
like more whales, but those are things to so portal.
So it takes about a week. To fly to to Dan, excuse me,
that was rough. The temperature doesn't really
drop much. You're still pretty much in the
tropics as you continuing to the north.
However, this is a much more enjoyable Journey than what it
would be on the seas because while you are still at the whims
of the wind, you're not at the The whims of the ways.
So it's a much more gentle and I don't need to make any
Constitution saves. I would just know.
That's exactly what I'm saying. It's exactly what.
Sam, but the captain has you ready?
As you begin to make your way to the north and you are heading to
quell. Tell kalba DeKalb, uh, dot.
Oh my God. I cannot say these words.
I know how to say it. Tell Cal, but bad there it is
tell Cava bod. So, At the end of the seventh
evening. You know, that the next day you
will be able to be seeing this, this city, the sun rises to your
right to the starboard as you open up.
The views as the sun. Crests The Horizon.
Are we headed south? No, you're heading north?
Okay? That's why East is to the right.
Yep. You see three islands off the
southern portion of a large teardrop shaped continent with
its kind of upside down. So the point of the teardrop is
pointing South and I take that back, there's only one Island
but there's two other City masses on the, on the east and
west side of this small teardrop.
You're heading towards the island itself.
You see that as you begin to lower yourself?
The ship into the water. The building's themselves are
built out of some sort of whitish white and pinkish stone
that are flowing archaeologically in the
comparison of the real world, you think of Morocco or Egypt?
Hmm W. Also, lots of blue stone.
That's wrap around domes and minarets as you begin to get
closer eventually, the captain brings the ship back down to the
water. As you begin to make Port.
You slowly enter into a safe harborage. as the sense of
Roasted meat hot spices, and peppers and beautiful break.
Baked bread begins to waft over you as you enter the pier.
I don't know about you guys but I'm getting hungry.
Yeah, sounds of border of bartering of merchants yelling
at each other of just a very Boisterous City Life reaches
your ears. This city is much larger than
Haven for those of you from The Syndicate, L Sark and scold.
This would probably be about the size of PSI 0 about 650,000 dish
population. Okay, good size city.
So that's the smallest city in The Syndicate.
But It's pretty. It's still pretty solid, right?
How does that compare to what about the size of Denver?
It's a little bit like where you're from was what you're
thinking, right? Kuba.
Go back. Do.
Yeah, it's probably a little bit bigger than where you're from,
but that's also the largest city in the legation.
The legation doesn't have large cities, some of the cities.
Like if you had gone to South, which is probably where you
exited from, Is a little bit bigger, right?
So there are some comparable cities over on that side of the
world. but the ship lands a Customs, agent steps aboard the
ship. and asks, if you were carrying any goods for sale,
Then he won gonna declare anything.
Yeah, I'm gonna see if there's a market for these casks of
special. He will definitely say yes.
And he does require that. There is there is an import tax
of five silver per per item and he wants to inspect them to make
sure that they're properly sealed.
But am I talking to a Port Authority?
Yeah I have nothing. Absolutely nothing for sale.
Okay, give me a deception check.
Then please. Deception.
Yep, 2013 money. So he jots down a note.
He ask you for the name of the ship, the name of our ship.
Yeah, no, this is me in character.
Yeah, yeah, but I'm of your he's that's what he's saying.
Yes, the Darlene right. Sit down.
He turns it over and turn to hand it to you, to sign.
I write an X. Okay guys, I'm sorry.
I don't know how to sign. My name isn't even questioning.
He takes it. He writes a few notes.
It says, welcome to talk about car body.
Enjoy your stay. Thank you.
So he walks off the gangway down, and he walks over and just
gets back to his post and he's fine.
Nothing seems to be to be of any difference.
So you have now arrived on the continent of Bhutan in one of
the major mayor May geography cities of the continent.
Where you will now be seeking out the house where the job was
at, and that's what we'll pick up in a couple of weeks.
