Hello fair listener, welcome and thank you for following our
journey on Meta gaming by Room Propelled Gaming.
Fair warnings. Sometimes we are not safe for
work and others not safe for real life.
Journey forth at your own risk. Now let's dive right back into
Tara through the campaign. Manny Polos, you're not ready
for this session, Craig. OK.
Craig here yourself. Close your eyes back door
backed. The Hand of Fate tosses the dice
rolls, spins, turns. The campaign starts and ends,
leaving memories that becomes stories.
Stories flow out into the Infinite Sea, painting it with
legends. Legends wash up on the shores
throughout the Infinite Sea, fading to myth until myths are
forgotten. And again the Hand of Fate
tosses the dice rolls, spins, turns.
Hitherto we left our adventurers known as the Shadow Seekers on
the second level of Hell Lust, where they found themselves
after solving the next side on the Tridecahedron in a rush
while they escaped from a quickly flooding chamber in
Kaishen's prison on the fourth level of Hell, which they had
learned was an astral ship. As they appear on the second
level of Hell, sloshing slightly from the the near drowning and
electrocution in Kashen's prison, they find themselves in
front of the Crusty Mummy, a desert Oasis with the water
quickly turning to steam in the burning blazing sun.
Inside they find the Crusty Mummy patron standing at the bar
and greeting them. Franklin and Faust immediately
jumped down the well in the center of the Tavern and find
the Frog King. Both the Frog King and the
Crusty Mummy confirm that the Frog King is the ferryman for
this parts of Hell and does so the aqueducts that traverse
underneath of the entire level. They also confirmed that the
Demon Queen runs this level of hell and is in possession of the
seal. It would seem for this level of
hell and that she would be favourable to busting it open,
but they are and they were unable to do so on their own.
On their way to the Demon Queen, Ash convinced the Frog King for
a through a a little bit of dickering for a cheaper price to
get to a pyramid nearby which they were planning to get some
relics from the past to give to the Frog King for an express
route directly to the Demon Queen's castle Cliff Castle.
As they exclusion to the middle of the pyramid and after a short
wrist rest in the pocket rocket, their actual explorations go
exceedingly well, where they kill several mummies, including
some mummy pharaoh of sorts, where also Bob acquires a new
body as from a mimic at the. After clearing plenty of traps
and Ezra losing a portion of his tail to said to one of them,
they find a chest of desire and Faust immediately requests a
helm of teleportation from it and the Shadow Seekers snap into
existence. A few days hard ride or a day's
hard ride from the Demon Queen's castle.
On their way there, they run into what appears to be a trap
set up between some monoliths as Bob turned himself into a camel
and was walking everyone while they were in the pocket rocket
and the demons set upon the Shadow seekers attempt truly
trying to haul them off. It seemed like 3A teleportation
circle. Ashe finds out that their hearts
are the weak point at the same time that Faust dispels the
teleportation circle and the the rest of the demons quickly
commit Sebuku, ripping out their own hearts and dispelling into
dust. Deciding to go back into the
Pocket Rocket to rest up for the last leg of the journey to the
Demon Queen's castle, the Shadow Seekers get a note from their
other parts, the Rum Rollers, to meet them at the Infinite Tower,
Ishmael's Infinite Tower in their dreams, where they come to
an agreement, both the Rum Rollers and the Shadow Seekers
not to become gods and help one another.
Well, help the Shadow Seekers escape hell so that Franklin can
be watched by KIRO with the book for 100 years, as well as
primarily other points from a contract that were signed being
that they would seal hell after the release of the Shadow
Seekers. And yeah, so some of you are
waking up from having gone back to summer at the tower and clear
level or so and others are waking back up after after that
short rest with memories of having either been another
person. Thelma and Shaggy I think are
here and or Adm for a short period of time and otherwise
from if they all, all of this is a dream like so you waking up
with those memories filtering into your mind is and washing
away almost as quickly as you're remembering them.
Or the eurythmic veracity might be the last thing that some of
you remember of an in person ash.
Though you do have the perspective of your of yourself,
'cause I think you sat at the table.
So you have a full recollection of that last eurythmic veracity.
I think it captured everyone. Yeah, I do have.
I remember all of that. Yeah, famous Franklin.
Oh yeah, Franklin does too. How come that guy gets a bunch
of sandwiches and a weed and I have to kill God?
Jesus. I like how to join right at the
perfect moment to hear that sentence.
Welcome, welcome urine for in education.
Quite a fun time. Oh yeah.
Yeah. Ash is going to look over at you
sandwiches and weed. Did I miss something?
Yeah. I sure missed something.
Agonon sits with his hands on his chest.
Where's the sandwich? Where's the sandwich?
I don't have any sandwich. You said sandwich.
Yeah, actually, I pull out some clay and I make a sandwich.
There you go, buddy. Thank you, Frank.
Hey everyone, all right, don't mean to dissuade the DM from
finishing this thing. It was pretty much done.
I was letting you guys filter in now just saying let's.
The only thing I left out I guess was let's find out what's
happened this time. So I'm right now.
Trying so I didn't miss anything.
Nope. I have this.
Coming out this show on the road.
Yeah, this is what I'm hearing right now.
All right? I think we're right outside the
gates. Well before we.
We're inside. We do that I have a little
present for everybody and you all just see me pull out this
humongous like human abdomen size flower out of my little net
bag with the vine still attached to it so it.
Did make that item, if you look in your guys's inventory, I
believe in. Oh.
A flower. Yeah, from the tower.
We find that in my. Backpack.
Backpack, probably. Equipment, yes.
Oh, the rare item? Sweet.
Oh, that's cool. So yeah.
What's Dylan? Agonon had a little adventure,
the Infinite Tower, and I accidentally made this kind of
plant. You know, there was a whole
blight situation and I tried to make a sale and as I was
combining it, it kind of exploded into plant growth with
these giant flowers, so. Wow.
And I have one now. So where should we not have?
Hypothetically, what if the reward for for surviving what?
What tier of reward is surviving?
4 floors were like 8. You're probably like one away
from a legendary item man, being honest.
Hold on to my hat, but it's about that we're we're entering
the end game. It's about that time to cash
that kind of. Stuff, man Yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah. Like like it like you would from
the arcade. You go up to him.
Like, I know I usually give rewards out this time, but can I
cash my tickets in now? But you did.
Don't forget you do get some items specifically too from the
tower whenever you do like like you have the Shard.
Don't forget of the dragon Shard.
Would I have to make a check to see what this fire does or do I?
That's what the that's what these are.
These are things that they've taken from the tower as opposed
to like been given from Ishmael. So the dragon Shard, was that
the? Order.
I don't. Have the dragon Shard.
I do. Not.
Oh wait, Kira. Kira was there for that one.
What's what level was that? It is a well after I took them
both and invested a large amount of gold.
They're very rare. Awakened Dragon Focus.
Are those the two orbs from the level of the statue?
Yes. OK, so you have both of the orbs
then? They have been fused together
thanks to the chest. I have gotten them OK they.
Are my still casting? Corpus, did we get any items
from other floors like Willy Wonka?
Elf torture? Did we steal any of those
potions? Allegedly, they were delicious.
I don't know if we took anything from that level I.
Don't think so. Ezra took snacks.
Snacks. Snacks, snacks, snacks, snacks
every. Boy.
And the dolphin didn't actually come with us, correct?
No, you guys were trying to figure out how to bring the
Scenty Scenty dolphin with you. Is his name Flipper?
No, his name was Free Willy. No, I'm just kidding.
I can't remember. His name was claping, claping
claping faster than my name. Oh, if we are exchanging gifts,
Ezra here I I got this for you and I just casually pulls out a
scroll of regeneration. Ezra looks at the paper.
Do I eat it? I don't think he knows how to
use that. Oh.
OK, so this this paper becomes your new tale.
Ezra takes the paper and kind of like puts near bottom.
Close. So where should I, you know,
propagate this flower at? Because I feel like it could be
a little useful. You would want to do it inside
the pocket rocket, inside the the botanical area, the right
hand side. If you if you want to roll.
What is, what does? Yeah, what is?
What is this thing? I look at boust.
If you want to roll and yeah, you can, but.
History teacher. Arcana medicine.
It's this. What's your?
What are you? I was going to say that more or
less there is. There is a little note that
probably came with it though too.
That's why I was. That's why I was going going
with it and tagged what Agonon just sent into Rule 20 chat are
the things that you know about it so far.
Got it. Wait, everyone pause.
What I put in the chat is way more than what's showing up on
my character sheet. Oh.
Before anyone reads. This.
No, that's because that's because you specifically only
have the stamen portion of the text below because you took only
the stamen of the flower, whereas kalimba took the whole
like a whole butt, which includes a stamen.
Interesting, but this item has embedded in it the information
of the other items as well. Because I was, when I was
creating it, I was creating both of the pieces because it's like
a, in my, in my mind, it's a whole, it's a whole item.
But they're like, just like you would when you would, you would
harvest any sort of magical thing.
Like different parts do different things, right?
So yeah. Or not magical like plant like
you would use, you know different parts of a plant for
different things. Yeah, that's weird.
Though in my I said I screenshot and put in the chat with my I
see mine. Yours.
Yours is in there too. Because in my character sheet it
tells me what the pedals do, not the statement.
No, yeah, my bottom portion. Is it a cut off or something?
The bottom portion that says it actually, yeah, it actually sent
through the part that I I did keep secret from you.
Interesting. Yeah, so because I saw there was
a part that said put your spoiler here, possible still
unknown effects. And then I stopped reading.
Yeah. And I figured it might have put
in more than you wanted me to know.
Those are possible things, so I didn't determine those yet.
So those are the things that it could do.
I'll leave it at that, OK? KALIMBA is as why y'all do
y'alls a little debate. Kalimba is going to go into the
water room and try to find a good spot to put this very viny
plant fast. Do you want to come help me?
You seem at least a little bit smarter than me, so you might
know a little more. Probably clean up all the dead
bodies in there at some point too.
Yeah, 'cause Gals bedroom is looking a little cramped.
Agonon gave me a tour last time and I don't think that's for me.
I'd rather just lay down a beach towel and you know just this
place is looking. A little This place is looking a
little gnarly. I think we should take a.
The the dead bodies are are cleaned up.
They're just for some reason in there, I can't touch them like.
There's a member of. Horses in there.
What do you remember about these bodies though 'cause I don't
remember anything about these. Bodies.
I've been collecting every corpse that we've found and I'm
composting them. So I have a little operation
going where all the flesh is pulled off the bones.
The flesh is composted and put into the biosphere and the bones
are fed to the the bone monster to make it bigger.
Everything we kill, I pick up and I do this with.
OK. So all of these bodies are
decomposed and gone. No the the other.
They're all being. Processed the other day I did
had a dream where somebody kind of kind of did something
similar. These are some.
Not what not. These are some of the I know for
a fact these ones are some of the goblins you killed here from
like when they snuck into your room.
But these ones were the I had to take the X off to actually get a
look at what the token was. These are the gift Yankee ones
that you killed. As well.
So yeah, do you think, do you know how to make rings and stuff
rings? Do what?
Did you figure out how to make me a ring if I hand you the
materials? I am no Craftsman.
If you'd want to talk to Bill, dress.
I'm sorry, in a different room. He's a local artisan.
He is. I paid last time while y'all
were, you know, doing what y'all do.
I guess. I paid one of the goblins in the
wall for a chunk of adamantine. So.
You did not simply demand it, you paid.
Well, yeah, that's ours. That's our adamantine dude.
They sold you our stuff. Well, I wonder.
If. Y'all probably underpaid them.
They probably have families. They they are literally.
Getting a ticket? Out of hell.
That was the deal. They were at a level of hell.
Explaining that to me and he just let me pay the goblins and
watched while I did. It you paid, I didn't see you
pay nothing. And Ezra, I paid a whole gold
for this strong guy out of antsy.
I just start laughing my ass off and walk away.
I'm a go worry about this flower.
Is a good deal. House is interested in the
flower for alchemical purposes, but let's.
See, I can only want to see what happens.
Oh, yeah. If I want to see, I want to see
if I can roll the check on this. If if any of my stuff would be
potentially, you know, useful, probably not anything else.
Been a chemical uses for this thing.
Guidance. I don't think I have gotten so I
don't. Everyone gets guidance.
I'm just chilling there, like touching everyone with guidance
as they do their things. We have the chance to desire.
If you want to throw money in there and to get your ring,
never mind, shut up. Wait, what?
Yeah. If you throw your ring and
adamantium in there, you could just ask for whatever you're
looking for. Colomba is just pretty much
going to grab Faust by the arm and drag him into the water room
with her to help plant this flower.
Wait, so you're saying that because the adamantium is
valuable, we can just mine and inventium for her own mine?
Chuck it in this chest and get something out of it.
We did. We, we have a large amount of
adamantine mined from this, but we are in the inside of that
stone. If we mine too close to the
edge, it could break. So we have a a bunch of
adamantine that people, everyone can have adamantine to do
something with either armor or weapon or whatever you're after.
OK. But and then we probably have
extra to sell, but it is unlimited supply and we've
basically mined it out. But it's a group resource.
So if you want adamantine like armor or weapons or anything
like now is the time just Hock it and adjusted.
OK, I got I'm work focusing on this you just here Columbia from
the other room. I'm focused on on this flower
first, but then I got something I want to do with that and.
Yeah. Do I have to make up my own
weapon? Like how would I do this?
Or is there are there animantium things that exist in the world?
Adamantine weapons are a thing, basically.
If you look it. Up it'll be you do autocrits on
objects with adamantine weapons and then adamantine armor.
Remove you can't get credit against.
OK. I definitely want to make a an
adamantine batter like portable battering ram because battering
Rams already do extra damaged objects.
Then make it adamantine sexy. So I just search.
Adamantium or adamantine? Yep.
I have an idea in that regard. Why not a pair of adamantine
fists that are perfectly sized to be worn by a earth elemental?
Yeah, I mean, do you have an Earth elemental?
I can acquire 1. Or an angry.
Israel, I mean the that how to how to present work.
You'd have to figure out a way to like transport it, because I
assume you're elemental isn't like.
It would be a case by case summoning.
Yeah, do it. Big little Iron Man.
Add a man. Time, man.
Add a man time man. We need to find a scroll of
golem awakening. But fast.
You said you wanted to research his flower a little bit.
Yes, I do. She's going to hand him the
flower. Take a look, see it this year,
flower, learn what all chemical stuff I can about it.
Presumably you hand over the note that was with it as well.
I do and part of the vine that I have.
And the note I. Told you to get the note.
The note specifically states that if you ingest any of the
flowers of this or petals of this flower, usually 4 per per
flower. They Where did it go now?
Oh, that's the one I see. Oh yeah.
It will automatically restore 2D20 hit points, but they they
you also gain a level of exhaustion as the unnatural
after. Yeah, after a separate of time
as the unnatural energy briefly invigorates and then saps your
life force. Then that intact flower Withers
slightly with each consumed petal.
OK, like a Hail Mary time. Yeah, I'm just going to let them
keep this thing. They can plant it or whatever.
I don't physically only have. That's an interesting effect,
but. And the stamen If placed upon a
recently deceased creature of the flower, the stamen of the
flower creates last moments creatures.
Last moments can be briefly replayed as a faint ethereal
vision or sound lasting for up to 30 no more than 30 seconds.
Cool. So you all said I should try to
plant this in a little water room over there?
Yeah, it's a biosphere. It's what keeps the everyone in
here breathing. Very.
Negative effects on living material.
So maybe don't do that. Oh, I don't see where this text
is. It's in Rule 20.
Wow. And if you scroll up at the.
Top of. Yeah, it's got like necrotic
energies and shit. This is not a plant we want to
plant in the biosphere. Hold on, that's sectionary main
bulbs on there. That's and it's powerful on
life. Oh my God, guys.
What he did to combine it just because I I feel the need to
explain the beauty of what he did, is he combined basically a
a vine like flat plant and mushroom spores in a in a
magical way. Yeah, I was trying to make a
salve and they had this dump full of like all of the blighted
pieces that they had cut off already.
So I took some of that into some of the mushrooms that were
trying to eat away at the light. And she took them in her head
wrap and mashed them up in a bowl like she took her little
headscarf off and did something she has never done before,
surprisingly. And it turned out decent.
Oh, start of their turn, I'll pay you for that shit.
Oh my God. What part are you reading?
This is this is so the the root bulb.
I assume we have like the whole thing that we could pull it
apart. The necrotic anchor undead
creatures with a 60 feet gained temporary HP equity of bonus
proficiency at the start of every turn.
And so dread, that's essentially like a, an AOE and maybe.
We're. Plants more of these.
I had an idea. Hold up.
Hold. Up.
We're all living creatures, most of us.
Yeah, most of you are. I mean.
Unless everyone wants to be undead like we have that option.
Who can who can wear armor here? I have an idea.
I can. Because I cannot, so this idea
would not benefit me. But you just see Kalimba kind of
like rush into the little adamantine goblin area and
demand more adamantine from the goblins.
I think most of us can wear. Armor.
But like we. Don't buy more we.
I'm not, but she's going to convince the goblins to give her
more without paying. Hopefully since I know she will
pay. She is dumb enough to goblins.
With greedy little buggers. Go to the goblins and the one
would approach you and he goes. I I haven't introduced myself
from the last time. I guess you paid one of my
subordinates. They they don't speak common
though it would you like that gold back?
He he said he tried to give it back to you, but you insisted.
I mean, it wasn't really that much.
He can keep it. But can I get some more
adamantium though? Like, oh sure.
Any any of this? How many PE?
How many people in the party can wear armor?
Let me establish that first before I do the math on what I
want to do here. A plus.
Most of us, most of yeah, I I am already covered in adamantine,
but. No, this would not beneficial.
Got got it. Ash is where my a leather set of
armor. So Ash who?
Agonon can foul swear armor. No.
OK, Ezra, can you? Ezra does everything, yes.
OK, so three can I have can I have about enough adamantine
worth for three chest plates please?
I think we have enough here to to extract and make something
like that. Would you like me to get the get
them all started on that? My name is Bill Dress, by the
way. Please, my name is Columba.
I just had a little spark of idea and I want to experiment
with something. I could get started on that.
You could expect us to be done with it by by the by the Morrow.
OK, thank you. And then she's going to rush
back out and try to explain her idea to the rest of the crew.
So given that the thorns of the flower can dull senses, what if
we cover a suit of armor in those thorns using the chest?
So that way whatever hits US if it's melee gets pricked and does
their senses, which could potentially make them go blind.
Oh, it would have to hit us with their.
They'd have to be unarmed an armed strike if they're hitting
us with. That could be useful.
I mean, you should. You should make.
This to do a weapon. Yeah, Can I Barb?
Can I Barb my arrows with these thorns?
Yeah. I want to Barb my WAR fans as
well. Right.
Like if you it's kind of spice Knuckles.
All thinking about it, I mean realize you only have the two
flowers so far. Yeah, I'm looking at this.
It says I don't, I'm trying to see the path of decay is the
part that would be concerning to plant it.
But that only says when a segment of the stalk is laid on
the ground. Can I can we have someone do a
check to see if this will actually have a damaging effect
on the plants? 'Cause I'm not, I'm not
actually. Reading anything that says like
when planted, it creates a area of fuck you.
Yeah, all. Right.
So if we were to harvest this, we just have to make sure to
never let the parts touch the ground.
Also the what? Parts of the stock.
All the realms on the Thorn. In a different realm.
Don't break yourselves on the thorns.
Be some sort of nature trick, but without knowing anything
else. I can try, I don't have a good
note to. I don't have a good one either.
Whoops. Well, I can try.
I mean, we could work together. I have the seven.
I guess I could try. I mean, Franklin also cast
goblins. I know.
Wait, I we had a guidance cast on us so my 17 is actually an
18? With Asher's help, I would say
that you guys come to the conclusion that you could
probably rig up some sort of just with the understandings
that you do have of it so far, some sort of trellis like system
so that it's not actually physically touching the ground
or the the earthen structures that you guys have in any one
spot in the. We have those tubs.
It's like a raised garden bed and a trellis.
Yeah, reuse one of the tubs that we have in there as a, as a, as
a base and then have it grow up the wall.
OK, I'm down for that. I mean, I'll help with anything
you'll need me to so. Yeah, I think that.
Would be usable. We have staff also.
Just watch over the planet. Probably as you guys are mulling
about it, you think to yourselves, well, the stink
might be abated slightly from the final room if you took some
of the decaying compost and put it used it to feed the the
increased decaying of the flower.
Because as much as you've completed completed a compost
pile, a compost pile still stinks pretty bad and takes like
years to finish its final decomposition.
It's also. Riddled with maggots from the
from the Dyer crickets. Yeah.
Yes, that's where we feed the babies.
Yeah. We can use that too.
So what I'm hearing is you're, you're you're probably going to
take a few of the corpses, throw them in a tub and plant the seed
or plant the flower. Hopefully that well, the the the
probably the not the flower itself, but the stock of the
vine that you you got there Kalimba.
Yeah, I will. Question on adamantine weapons.
Josh, will you allow us to target weapons and Shields with
adamantine weapons with the intention of creating those
items and destroying them, or to carried items not count?
I'm not I I I think I was following your log.
First, she wants cult shots. What shots?
Cult shots, which is essentially you could target someone to try
to like blind them or take their like sword arm etcetera.
Because adamant had weapons. If I'm unless I'm wrong, they
always crit on objects. That's what they do right?
That's their thing, yeah. Can I attempt to destroy
someone's weapon by targeting the weapon instead of them in an
attempt to destroy it? That is always an option.
You also have the ability to disarm folks.
Still based game. I mean, it's not something that
people usually do, but. That is, the disarming strike is
specific to Fighter. Yeah, you can.
You can shove, you can grapple, you can do a few other things,
but like disarming someone, you have to have a build to do that.
Joshua, we just wasn't sure if you would allow us to target
carried items and use the adamantine feature on the
carried item. Is that something you'd allow?
I mean, I don't I I don't see any reason not to.
You guys usually don't end up targeting anything specifically,
so you can try it and see where it.
Goes but also if we are hitting with an adamantine weapon, do we
crit their armor and then can we roll to see if we destroy their
armor? Absolutely tech specific parts.
Well lucky for y'all I have goblins mining adamantine, no?
Not mining. No, not mining.
We we have all the adamantine we need, any more mining will
result in our house exploding. Is that Jenny?
Yeah, he said. Good night.
Johnny come back, Johnny. He said sway for me.
Oh, actually I just was just driving to him those flowers and
how the IT was the thorns that had that like kind of numbing
the sensation or paralyzing sensation.
And well, we were talking about making it into like either
defensive armor or weapons. And he was like, what if you
made it into drugs? OK, I.
Was like, no, none of us know that.
Saw the good campaign has intergalactic moonshine and now
the evil campaign has drugs so. Evil campaign has drugs
actually. Well you know what?
I think Ash might have made her way through that brick of MSG
she had been carrying around I. Think so?
Not quite at least. Yeah, it's a, it was a, it was
like like a 20 LB brick, I mean. Yeah, it was a full fucking
brick. Yeah.
That's ridiculous. Right.
I have another question, Josh. How do you deal with ammo in
your campaigns? We haven't really talked about
it. We've just kind of had unlimited
ammo. Yes, you always have ammo.
Don't ask me questions. So like.
What if I asked to make a custom ammunition like the barbed
arrows from the thorns? Does that still apply or do I
need to? Because I have an idea to combat
this if you let me do it. I just don't know if this is
going to be a problem or do I get my arrows back?
You make the item, you have the arrow, it is magical arrow.
You have unlimited arrow. OK.
I wasn't. Sure, if I had to ask
specifically for returning arrows or if I needed to because
I I wanted adamantine arrows borrowed with orange.
No one wants to count ammo, I'm sorry.
OK, but because we have in a limited supply of adamantine, if
I'm using it for a disposable feature, I had to ask to see if
the feature was disposable and the answer is no.
So cool. There there is there is a arrow
of returning I think. Yeah, there is.
So theoretically, since we don't have to mine the adamantine,
could I just go up there and grab some chunks and test it on
my weapons? Yes.
OK, don't forget you can, you can just hook that into the
chest and it will just make the thing for you.
Kalima's going to grab a few more chunks of Adam Anton and
then took both the Adam Anton and her WAR fans in the chest
and see what happens and. I would like oh, sorry, I'll
wait. You would put nothing.
I think there was some gold leftover.
Right. Something.
Everyone after everything, everyone, everyone was given.
A right portion yeah you, you would you'd close it and it
would like it's like bless you it's like the lid had a spring
on it that you didn't realize before and it just pops back
open 'cause it's just the fan and the adamantine if.
You've got to pay a little fee. Belinda's going to toss the
amount of gold she has in there. Let's see what happens.
She has a living gold. Fingers crossed.
The the lid locks this time you hear a click and then it and
then it kind of shakes a second and then the the latch unlatches
and it opens back up with none, none of the gold left.
And at first you're looking at the fans like what did it?
What did it even do? And as you undo or open the
fans, you see the the spines of it are adamante now.
I know that's right, but so does, since, you know, I'm kind
of known for not having the most amount of sense.
Can somebody like in depth explain to me what Adamanton
does 'cause I still haven't picked up all it both.
Adamanton. Out of character, so.
Oh sure, I'll walk over. Yeah, Adamanton has 2 uses.
If used in weapons, any attack on an object will RIP.
So if you hit like a like you know, leather, leather pants or
like a jerk in or like the wall or like, you know, stuff, it'll
it'll do more damage to that thing.
So it's great for like warhammers and like picks and
like, you know, battering Rams and and then armor prevents
crit. So if you had armor made out of
that at that time, then it would prevent critical strikes against
you. So if someone hit you with a mat
20, it would do anything. It would just be like a regular
hit. Oh, I get in there, but I mean,
I can't wear armor anyways so that doesn't really affect
anything but. I'm going to I'm going to place
a battering ram down a portable battering ram for in a crowbar
for whatever happens to like use it next.
I'll put some money down. Maybe it's like a batch thing.
I'll make it cheaper. But like these these will make
it so that we could get into anywhere really easily.
And then we should we should pack up and get going.
So if anyone has any last stuff but we got to get to get to
moving. How much is a seventh level
spell scroll? Seventh level, I did math on
that earlier too, 'cause there's like, let me see if I have it,
have it in here. Maybe it's in between these
pages? I'm going to say, Emily, I bet
if you put a adamantine money and enough money and you could
request a adamantine arrow of returning or and one of the
needles in because the the chest does combine objects.
And one of the what? So if you did it, if you did the
if you bought an arrow of returning and then added that
the adamantine money and like one of the spikes from this
plant, I mean into the best, it would probably make or combine
all of them. Well, we don't have the spikes
yet. We only have the flower.
We have to. Grow, yeah.
Level. So right now I'm just trying to
get an adamantine arrow and I don't need it to be returning
because we've already decided that we have unlimited ammo.
What I was thinking is an arrow +2.
Yeah, but I'm trying to look up how much those are right now.
Just do. Do do do do do.
OK. And then times the.
Roll. I like how my favorite thing is
this, how my characters can change drastically at any
moment. It's just so like I like how
Kelly went from being the resident not not the only
residents, one of the residents stupid ones to now just being
crafty for no reason. Yeah, personal growth, bro.
That's what happens when you hit your 30s.
You start crafting. I mean, I'll be doing that
anyways. I get bored.
The requirement for becoming 30. Feel like that's our that's our
midlife crisis. We can't afford like cars or
anything big but. We can make.
It like unrealistically get into a hobby.
Loosely speaking, somewhere between 5:00 and 10K depending
upon the spell. I'm looking to grip my hands on
a scroll of earthquake. Oh Jesus,
I mean, Jake already knows all the ideas that I've been sitting
on since I've talked to him, talked to him about some of the
ones that I've come up with. I'll tell y'all when he said
wouldn't work. With Fine Fiance, the picture
takes. But the other day I told, I
don't remember when I thought of this.
Honestly, I think it was sometime last week.
I think, I don't know. But how they were like those two
guards in the room, You know, I was thinking like, what if Cyril
flew in and helped Grand Am skin the guards and just wear?
The problem would be getting there. 1.
Zero from like the evil game or. No I mean from like he could
just fly into the skull and skin the the demons inside and then
wear their skin and just walk out.
But I think because KIRO is part of the good campaign he would
just get sucked into exactly where Grand Am is.
Exactly. Then they could break out
together. So hey guys, I found a chart in
Xanthor's guide to anything for magic item prices.
So expensive based on your rarity.
They're so expensive. Got.
One of my that's based off of something like that.
So I just rolled for my arrows +2 which is a rare item which is
2 D 10 * 1000 and I rolled a 12 so 12,000 for a quiver of them.
Oh wow. Yeah, yeah, that's about where
mine would be at. Yeah, so.
My my rare items are 1000 to 2500.
That's the range that I have for it, so.
Hit me, hit me baby. How much is this scroll going to
run me? What's the rarity?
Very, very well. The the that's the thing with
scrolls. That's the another thing I had
to come up with because you have to, you have to take into
account the spells level, which for each, each, each level.
Yeah. And I'd said five between 5:00
and 10K is where I was expecting.
So it'd probably be sitting at a very rare to to compare compare
it to item cost. What are the?
Requirements even do for 'cause I have a lawyer and I don't even
know what it does. You get you play some mixed.
Music, yeah, but Josh, what do you say for the the scale of
your rare before we get down to other some other stuff?
1000 to 2500. OK so you're saying I should pay
1200 for my arrows? Because you pay.
Yeah, you roll. Because I roll 12.
Yes, right. Got it.
OK. And envisioning.
I'm thinking. Question real quick. 40 Forty
4850. Just for Fun 4. 4850 for the
scroll of earthquake. Yeah.
Then I want to get 2. Oh boy, they're single use items
so that's why I. I'm a wizard.
I'm. A wizard wizard I have learn a
mountain water in it like how does that?
I don't have the spell slot level but I can try and up cast
it at my level and there's a big ass tower that I have in mind.
Sorry, Grand AM. So Speaking of those things,
though, but so it sounds like you're chucking a whole bunch of
gold in the chest. Grand Am and or Faust, you said
Grand Am threw me off for a second.
And then just like murmuring on your best breath of like
earthquake squaw, earthquake, squaw.
And it, it pops the lid and you see the last whips of your gold
turning into these elaborate scrolls that have like the, the
the dowel all the way through them with like elaborate ends on
either end. And there are two for 8000.
No, 9000. How does how does that matter?
Yeah, 600. Yep.
Hey Franklin, what's your spell attack mod?
Spell cast mod probably pretty fucking high.
Hold on plus 11 to attack in the 19 saves.
What's what's your total mod though?
Plus 11? OK, I don't.
Need +5. And I'm, I'm handing one to you.
And it's like. This is cool.
The cool little thing. Tower, yeah.
Oh, for the tower, that's true. So yeah.
Completely unrelated but I just witnessed something that feels
like a fever dream so I have to. So I'm for no order me something
to eat because I hate cooking and I don't feel like cooking.
It's been a day. I'm not doing it if I don't have
to look at what I just stumbled across.
We have food. That that image feels like
something that I should not be looking at like if that it
doesn't. That is.
So. Wait, where are we looking?
That is so. Nice in general.
In general that is the most wild image to me.
It is a whole meal from McDonald's called the McDonald
Land Meal. Yeah, that's nice.
With a bright blue shape like, not even like.
Looks like some AI shit right there.
Literally. Opposite.
That's crazy to me. Yeah.
Are you throwing that gold in there?
Yeah, so you said 1200 gold and some adamantine.
Well, I kind of just. Enriched adamantine arrows +2.
Yeah, plus the plus the two mundane items I threw on there
with a little gold. Should I get the shake and try?
What? So was that just for Agonon but
I'm and the arrows or or I'm? I'm confused about Franklin's
edition. Oh.
So so so I I'm I would like to throw in a regular portable RAM
and a regular crossbow or crowbar.
Oh, OK, regular. Got you.
Yeah. And then they would get at a
adamantinized because they they are specifically built to take
down like objects. So a a a adamantine version of
it as we as we move into the PNC, seems we choke right now.
I'm going to don't, I don't know but.
I'm back. Those, those are what you were
trying to accomplish. But before you do that, agonons
arrows pop out of the chest and you you, you have those.
Do you still have that thing I gave you the what's it called?
That one thing you had me by at the very beginning, The pocket
portraits or whatever. We, we've, we've done something
with that. Let let Josh and Emily finish a
second and then I'll tell you what happened with it.
Yeah, so that was the chest jostles and opens and you you
see the gleaming arrows in the centre of the chest, beckoning
softly. He scoops them up and is
admiring their edges. You can see your reflection in
them. And then he's also inspecting
the the shaft to devise how he's going to attach the barbs
eventually, one day. The beauties are incomplete.
I must wait. And Franklin, I guess, walks up
with the the the mundane items to be adamantized.
Do you throw some gold in there with that too?
I missed that part of it if you did say that already.
Yeah, I'll throw what gold I have left in which is like 100.
I use the remainder of my gold for reference to KIRO to turn
the floating boat folding boat we had into a flying adamantine
giant turtle spaceship. So that you're a little mighty
Fortress was used as an ingredient and and what now
amounts to is our own flying ship.
That's yeah. That could be folded up and put
into our pockets. Yeah, you'd pull out like one of
those if if you've ever seen those like jumping frog origami
shape things. Yeah.
Out of your pocket to show him while you're describing this.
It's in your hand. I'm not going to open it in here
because it's pretty big and I don't know what exactly would
happen, but this is our escape ticket.
Once we get through the door, which we should immediately go
do now, we're going to all pile in here and hopefully jet out.
Well, we'll have to assess the situation, but this is our
escape plan, right? I thought the plan was to smash
door and then go to door. Yeah, that's the plan right now.
We got to do that. And then we'll be on the first
level of hell, which is dominated by the PNC.
It's got an open top, but we need to then get out of there.
And ideally, I would assume the goal is we want to not stay in
level 1. We want to get out before level
1. Something happens, we want to
get out, out. So a giant flagship that we can
all pack into and take off is. I am confused, why are people in
next level hell? Pee in the sea.
This is the I think it's like AI don't remember the word.
I mean, yeah, they pee fish to it.
Yeah, everyone pees in the sea. Do they not?
Have we used to? Some people prefer peeing in the
water. You know, different strokes.
You're saying this behind? The chat, I remember Bob saying
there's a lesson for this. One the chest.
The chest jostles and pops open and you see inside the gleaming,
battering ramen crowbar. Great, I summon my 2 skeletons
again and I give one to each. Aren't those dead?
Yeah I can re summon them. All I need is a corpse and I
have many. Oh, OK, so you you pull from the
the skeletal monster there. What what is that that you're
doing then? Is there like some verbal and
semantic that you're doing? Yeah, it's create Undead.
Let me pull it up. I have a once a day long rest
use for it. Nice, but I'm jostling everyone
towards the exit as well. Not that we technically have.
One, I got a question for you, Josh before just to double check
something. You have seconds because as
you're saying whatever you're saying, a camel appears in the
middle of the bar and and starts jabbering away and then before
it can kind of you can see it's jowls like and before it finally
gets to some sorts of words out Cliff here.
Are we here? Do you need some Bob?
Bob, Bob, we have heard we are going to go through the door and
people pee in the sea. And you should too.
I pee wherever I want, don't you?
Don't tell me where that's. What I said, that's what I say.
But Franklin says The people beyond the door, they pee in the
sea. They sure do.
So. About all aboard.
Just completely given up. Yeah, I.
Does my what's it called the water skin?
Does my water skin still have some of the fountain water in it
'cause I don't think I use the whole thing on the flowers?
Yep. OK, good.
OK. But Columba's going to go
outside, too, because. Yep.
I'm going to grab some wine for Bob and then pop.
Out. Agonon leaves as well.
Thanks. Ezra's going to hold on to
somebody and go out. Oh yeah, I, I bring, we're going
to get you a headband of intellect one day, buddy.
I don't need. Hair next heyday I.
Have pretty hair? Don't think that it would help
much. You're like pouring a cup of
water into the ocean. Be careful you don't want to do
that the next place they pee there.
He's got a point. He's gotcha.
He's gotcha, you know? Anyway.
You guys had seen this from afar.
I think I transferred the bookmark over there so you can
see. Oh, Yep.
Cancel, cancel. Yeah.
No ban has ever found it before. Oh my God.
They said it's been a myth, but it's real.
Mama, actually it's. Time for us to go home.
But as you near the base of it, you you're, you see these little
outcroppings that kind of look like shanty towns that have
these the the look of a very ram, not only ram shackled, but
like scrub brushy. I really like.
Is that the Bob camel? I really like that.
Yeah. And Bob, Bob comes out with you
guys and says. I I had to.
Pull you guys out here because this and he gestures towards a
giant halfs. The best description I have for
you is a Centaur. Think Centaur but with a
scorpion lower half. Fucking sick I.
Turn into 1/2 and there it it nods and chitters and then says
welcome to the elk crapping of quick Cliff Castle.
Ash is going to bow very dramatically.
Here for business, your pleasure.
In the words of Bob, I am here for the pleasure.
Ash is trying very hard not to laugh at any of this and just
being like, yes, I do believe we are here for pleasure.
Would you mind showing us around?
And I kind of just like gesture around the courtyard.
He you can only tell it's a he as he turns and there's
something like dragging on the ground that draws your eyes and
you realize it it it. All of his other appendages are
movable except for this one. But then he squeers across the
ground, over to excitedly to the center of the square that you
courtyard that you're or, or courtyard that you're talking
about here, and gestures towards it.
This is. This is called the.
Beer me go round is the best part of town.
I'm. Sorry, can you tell me what this
is called again? The beer me go round, me go
round. And then he gets on it and then
he starts like peddling on on a device on it and it starts
picking up speed. And as he's as it's as it's
going around, you can see a little spout that's near his
mouth start to funnel beer from the top of what looks like a a
keg into his mouth. Yeah, like this.
Looks this looks amazing actually I'm so.
Have fun. I jump on.
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a purpose of dire importance.
Bob says you need to lubricate before you go to activity.
Also, we're going around this little little beer go round and
this guy's Dick is literally just dragging across the ground.
I'm just imagining it on like a carnival ride, just bumping
across the circle. I was imagining that like his,
like his scorpion Stinger would have been a, you know.
It's probably an aphrodisiac instead of poison here.
OK, SO question. You just see Kalimba with her
face buried in her hands, dry not to laugh.
Is beer only coming out where people are standing or is it
like spewing out of all of the holes?
Spewing out of all of the holes so you can see the square around
where you're standing is littered with like a stinking
putrid ocher from odor from the beer that's gone stale and bad
around it. OK, so instead of getting on,
Agonon is basically playing jump rope with this tail swinging
around the outside, just leaning in and like scooping some beer
with a cup. Like basically putting a cup
underneath the stream as it goes by him and then jump roping with
the tail as required. Ash is going to take a big gulp
of the beer coming from the cake.
Columbus just got her face buried in her hands and y'all
can't tell if it's from like embarrassment or if she's trying
not to laugh. Yeah, and and need an acrobatics
from Agnon and then an athletics from Ezra and Ash, who jumped
happily onto the beer. We go round.
Oh, don't do me dirty. Fuck me 3034. 3232 for freaking
Ezra. Oh nice Ash, Ezra.
You stick the landing and are sucking away happily as the beer
is flowing out almost faster than it can flow out.
So you try to push it a little bit faster as Ash is just
getting onto it and you put your mouth right on the spout.
As you fly backwards, though, your mouth is still open and the
stream of beer is just flowing down away from away, with your
flying body off of the side of it into your mostly into your
mouth. How strong is this beer?
You could roll a constitution to find out.
Oh, Jesus. Oh.
I did much better that. It's been literally months since
we were able to make any progress in this hell, and this
is how we choose to spend our time.
Takes a few steps from his cup. The woman's going to go stand by
Foust and kind of turn away, turn her back to the situation
that's happening and still have her face buried in her hands and
her face is bright red at this point.
Ezra's going to go over to this guard.
Where do I go to smash doors or, as the Bob says, clap cheeks?
You. You don't have to go anywhere,
big boy. You.
You, you're you're going to have to roll me out, probably a
constitution, I guess is the best way to put that.
Yeah. For not the, not the beer,
you're fine from the beer. But as you get off the beer, me
go round. Here we go.
Does Ezra has his wits about him 24?
You you stumble over to this fella looking like you're
basically drunk because of being dizzy, though from the beaming
around ash though you're you're perfectly fine except for that
you you took from flying off the merry go round.
We'll just say one point. I was going to roll it for it.
OK, good. The dice was nice, the one point
of damage. All right, I guess let's get
with that one point against my pride.
And the Scorpion fellow that you approach goes well, I and then
kind of stands, stands a little bit, not stands.
That's not the right word. Prostates straights like
straightens their back a little bit more and goes.
I know some cheeks that wouldn't mind being.
Clapped. Are you the Queen?
Because I'm here to clap queen cheeks.
Oh, you want to talk? You want to talk?
With you can audience with the Queen.
Yes, that is why I'm here. I am to clap her cheeks.
No. At.
This point, Ash is burying her hands, her face in her hands.
I'm I'm sure she would probably appreciate it from some big
hairy fella like yourself. You get it's like a gruff female
voice actually in this one's case.
But you you're going to have to go through a few little
inspection steps before you even get there, fella.
Ezra, no care. Let's do this.
I'm just going to walk over and ask what these inspections are.
You just see Columba in the background, kind of stepping
away from the group, trying not to associate me, but I don't
know these people. I just showed up with them.
I don't know they are. It's.
Technically true, Technically true.
Mama Ash, I know that I know what they mean.
I know what they mean. Ezra pulls his pulls his
Leathers down and buck ass naked.
I am ready for inspection and guards always ask this question.
And. And the top half of the of the
scorpion figure leans down real close and sniffs.
Yeah, you pass the first inspection, big fella, but
you're going to have to pass an endurance test next.
Oh. My.
God brow rise. As we're always ready for test.
Actually, I'm also going to call out to Bob.
I'm going to be like, Bob, you should be over here with us and
show us your pretty face. Faust is just watching this, his
eyes slowly glazing over. Pop pop, turn into me.
Agonon, sipping his beer in his mug, very amused.
It's not my game. Just as a description for that
too. You're you're it's not like
this. The the strongest of beers you
realize you'd probably have to drink.
I don't know like 5 mugs of it to.
It's piss water, got it. Yeah, but.
Can I cast? Surprisingly not not too
terrible on the palate, it goes down pretty easily.
Good. Flavored piss water.
I want to break the merry go round, go round.
Wait, you said you want to break it?
No, I said can I cast unmending like can I cast mending to
unmending something? I think that would be a bad
idea. We're trying to like get in
these people's good graces so we could go trash the queen cheeks
and get out of here. Just queen cheek clapping.
And you? Don't say you're.
Not green. So the individual that's
addressing you says, well, at this point I feel like you
should know my name, but I don't know if you could pronounce it.
It sounds to me Patch. Or you could just call me Tasha.
Gotcha. All right, hold still for your
second test. That was that her true name?
What'd you say, Insight? Yeah, but did she just give us
her true name? You could inside it, sure.
Yeah, but little brand. Now I have terrible insight.
And do you hold, hold still, Ezra, don't avoid what's coming
because you can see as she's saying this, she's the tail, her
tail is aligning. It stopped.
It's kind of hovering back and forth and gone stock still.
And it's starting to, like narrow in exactly where it's
going to strike at you. As we're looking at like hurry
up, must go clap cheeks. Ash is watching this very
carefully, but just letting the inspection happen.
Kalimba is like face to a wall in the in the far corner away
from y'all she wants no part in. The headphones.
On her. Don't listen and.
You you see the tail sail through the air, strike you
straight in the center of the chest, and you are instantly
aroused and then. Oh my God.
Beckons you to a stable that's nearby as she walks walks that
way. Oh, stable.
Oh my. It's like.
You might want to save that regenerations girl.
I'm just, I'm just going to start.
Wandering towards the castle. So then we're going to go with
files. You can't quite tell where it is
from here just because it's all kind of like all around you
somehow at this point you're like inside of the Cliff face is
where this little town is at, so towards it with.
The architecture isn't. Ezra going to be brought to the
Queen though, Is that the point of this or the Queen is coming
to Ezra? No, he has to go through this
inspection process first before I get to the left and you're the
Queen. That was the that was Faust.
'S. Towards Faust's quest of walking
towards the castle. Oh, OK.
Yeah, but if the Queen's coming to Ezra, why go look for the
Queen? The queen isn't coming to Ezra.
The only thing coming is him and that he's gone.
Should someone not stay with? Him, he's a big boy.
I don't think I want to witness that I'm.
The same, but you know, it feels kind of.
Raucous noises as as a couple of the other scorpions move into
the stable after the other two first go in.
OK, yeah, Ash is going to go look.
You're going to roll. You're going to roll a
performance though, Ezra. Anybody want to boost the Ezra
for performance? Guidance as you go and I slap
you on the ass. Good luck buddy.
I give you Bartok inspiration. Give it all.
Show them how to clap them cheeks properly.
I'll get your best attention and point at these guys to.
Even have. What is your Bartok?
Inspiration A Bartok Inspiration 1D10.
Woo, you're up to 10 in the corner.
I cast protection of good and evil and then that's, wait, is
that? Oh no, that's not a can't trip.
Never mind, I don't. And then guidance is a 1D4.
It is is wait, this is just to to impress this lady or for the
queen cause for the queen I'm going to give I'm going to do
warding bond, which will let your health pool with me. 21 for
performance. With the?
With what? So 8 + 9 + 3.
OK, so 8 was the base rule. Are you using your bardic?
Yep. So 8 was the base rule.
OK. Jesus.
He has a 20 constitution. He's got endurance.
You guys are Hi you guys. I'm so.
You guys are there are sitting there awkwardly for a while and
listening to these like animal sounds coming from the stable
for quite a while more than we're going to talk.
These guys I'm going to talk I want to talk to I want to talk
to these jail people yeah and, or any of the.
People that happening in the background.
Yeah, Agonon has heard enough. Yeah, y'all just, y'all just see
Columbus standing off to the opposite side and you just hear
a very monotone scream trying to drown out the sounds with her
hands clamped over her ears and her head faced toward a wall.
She's not having any part in this.
She doesn't. So I do have a question, would
would would Bob sit this out or would he be just someone be like
jumping into this 'cause I feel like he would jump into this?
Bob, probably like you, has got wait.
Does that give me an assist? What?
You're his head just like yours, probably in the side of these
rough openings in the side of the wall, staring in, watching
what's happening. Definitely.
Does he give guidance as well? He, he probably he'd, he'd
probably at least give you a go. Get him, boy.
Oh yeah, he's definitely determined with it right now.
Does he become a detachable dildo with a multi function I?
Mean he chanted that when he first became a.
In a minute, he is a. He is a.
What do you call it? Oh.
Fuck. What's that called on the
monster called on the neck? Yeah, I was going to leave that
be, what it was going to be. For.
For for those that are listening imaginations to handle.
But you're talking to the the folks in the cage.
You said they're Franklin and Agonon.
You walk over to them in the slightly shaded area under some
palm trees, and you see that they all have collars and
manacles with no chains on them at this point, and they're just
kind of sitting there. Two that were in the back were
chatting before you came up, but you couldn't hear anything, and
the one in the front doesn't seem to be talking to the two in
the back right this second. They all seem to be sitting down
inside the cage though, relaxed and without any real direction,
kind of just staring. At oh, is this like a sub thing?
You guys sign up to be here or what's going on?
Oh well, it started off that way.
The first, the one in the front says, but you're going to share
some of that beer. I'd be willing to talk more
after that and pre parched. I mean, proper etiquette is that
you're checked on and that's not my place to step in.
Did you have a say word? And the the the final scorpion
that you can see in the courtyard right now turns to you
and they're fine. You can if you feel like you you
want to share something with them.
They've been, they've been here for a while.
Like voluntarily or are they prisoners?
Both their their magics have run out for for their uses.
Their magics have run out for their use.
What are their uses? You, I don't know, you would,
you would, you'd have to talk to one of those that went into the
stable over there, probably to exactly.
It's above my pay grade. So can they be released?
Nope, that's that's the only order I've been given is to keep
them caged. Wow.
Are. We here to save every damned
soul in. Hell no we're not.
We have places to be, things to do, people to kill, bodies doing
habit. Well, my thoughts will be with
you. And he puts the mug beer down in
one of their cages. Yeah.
And starts to walk off. And that one that the, the one
that you put it down in doesn't even let it sit a second, but as
soon as you turn your back, you can just hear.
Nice. At this point one of the the
scorpions comes stumbling out of the stable.
Probably. And go straight over to the
beer. Me go round.
Smell like dog. And then and then a second one
comes out, leans up against the wall, pulls out a pipe start
smoking it before and and and the the final one that's with
you and the legs that were all over everywhere and you felt a
quite tickling pleasure. We'll say you, you, you you see
the last one still going strong, but holds off and says, I think
that's passing the test. But if you ever find yourself
parts again and Tasha writes on like pulls out like a a quill
and dips it in her poison and then just inscribes it her her.
Beef. Like her, like her, like her,
like her. This is how you can get a hold
of me. And then she wanders out to
catch her breath. Ezra walks out.
I'm a pudding. Does he just look?
Wrecked. Yeah.
Hair standing in every direction.
Some of it's stiffer than it should be.
Why? She's just.
Gonna cry. Like the limbic girl is like
they. Grabbed all sorts of things.
Faust's mouth just hangs slightly gape, like he's just
somehow still after all he's experienced, flabbergasted by
how fucking stupid Ezra is. Kalimba would.
Since the noises stopped,
Kalimba would turn and look, but then the second she sees like
stiffen hair, she's going to throw up.
Just instantly throw up like she's not.
This is not her fourth aid. This is more.
Hero and Daphne, this is not Kalimba.
Yeah, no, this is like I'm I'm imagining like just like those
like baby throw UPS where they don't even like make a face or
anything. It just like a.
Split up like dribbles out the corner of your mouth.
I'm going to clap you on the shoulder and be like, you did a
damn good job. I'm gonna I'm going to turn over
the scorpions. And I'm like, all right, He
passed your inspection. Lead us to the queen, please.
And I say as charmingly as I can.
Oh, don't you worry honey, you can make your way to the hidden
fortress, but you're going to. This isn't the final inspection,
this is just first levels. How many levels?
Ezra continue as our champion. Ezra.
Volunteer Hughes tribute. You're now welcome to follow me
to the gardens. Ezra comes up to her.
Comes up to her tail. Pineapple.
I'm ready. She she, she gasps a little bit
and then kind of limps off toward it, towards the westerly
direction. Bro alright.
Let's go. Away we go.
Come on everyone, you're not going to want to miss these
activities. My face is like on his face on
his. Hands, I have a terrifying
dread. Dread night.
I'm a terrified dread. Sally is going to kind of like
cling to Faust a little bit and you see her holding her stomach,
trying to throw up again. She's fighting it.
Bob, I passed. Nagging on somehow has another
mug of beer in his hand. As you guys walk deeper into the
cliffs that this town is situated on, you come to a a
gate in recessed under that into the shadows.
It's cooler here. And then Tasha leaves, leads you
through some passage ways past the stone gate to another stone
gate that she knocks on with a particular code, it seems like.
And as you're switching back and forth under the passageways,
it's kind of hard to tell what direction you you you're facing
now. But as as the final door opens,
you guys see this immaculately manicured garden with this
gorgeous glass trellis system in the center of it, and it's
strewn about with frolicking peoples, some intertwined with
each other, some not, some just lounging about, but everyone is
naked. I knew these.
Bushes would be impactful. Ezra.
Ezra strolls in. I am Ezra.
I am here to clap the cheeks. Gave you.
A drop down. Perspective before giving you
the map perspective. There you go.
Ash is going to admire the scenery, and she's going to
reach into her bag and just take a little snort of something and
then hand a little bit of it to Bobby.
Like you want see that? With as soon as you utter the
the do you, you just see the camel Bob just like opens it's
enorm, already enlarged nostrils even farther and just across the
whole brick. And you see him get a lot hyper
than you've seen him even in the past and he just into the garden
to go and he just runs off. Oh.
God, I just. Want to say this is?
This has been a lovely bit of commentary to listen to while
I'm eating like this is. I cannot lean in and raise an
eyebrow. You got something that's a
little extra? I do I do I?
You'd ask for the equivalent of like a micro dose, just enough
to get a little giggly. I take out my finest spoon and I
just scoop a little bit off. Why thank you, Miss.
There are candle work for. Dean Hart takes.
There are roles associated with that too.
Ezra's looking for the next inspection.
Palinda's going to be washing her face in the fountain.
Try not to throw up again. When in Rome?
You you're probably very refreshed by the fountain
actually, because the whole area seems a lot cooler than the rest
of the desert has been, as well as the whole area is very
fragrant of a bountiful bouquet of floral and greenery.
Sense that? Yeah.
Is this place like magically enhanced or do they just have
really good irrigation system going?
Maybe. We have a packable book.
Oh my God. You finally got it.
There you go. Anyways I.
Thought it, but I wasn't for the sign of it.
And what else would be Palimbo? Palimbo is going to find one of
the smaller flowers and just prop one up behind her ears and
then put her face back in her hands and just kind of shake her
head a little bit. So is the scorpion Centaur still
leading us through this place? Because I guess we would
continue to follow it them her? I forgot what they said.
Tasha, She she, she bows to you slightly and passes you off.
It seems like there's a as you're as you're pulling your
head out of the fountain, you see someone rise out of it.
Katlimba. And they are completely nude but
Aphrodite esque from the from that fountain.
So like perfect pristine human form and the Tasha Bowes and
says Lila will be able to take you from here and goes back
through the door, closing it behind her.
Ash is going to bow to Lila. You're like, it's so nice to
meet you. Columba is going to bow a little
bit. Columba is going to bow a little
bit. Still trying, like clearly
trying to hold herself together a little.
But she is going to bow and thinking that this person is at
least somewhat connected to Aphrodite, who she is pledged
to. So she's just going to kind of
bow out of respect and then go back to try not to engage in
anything. Agnon nods his head and raises
his glass and like a a greeting and is staring a little bit too
much at her face. Nowhere else, just her face,
trying too hard to stare at just her face.
Entirely disinterested. Ash is looking all over.
She doesn't care. She's admiring the beauty.
Ezra's just waiting for the test.
Where's the test? And you're looking around then,
Ezra, and the only person fully admiring her, Ash, seems to be
who she directs her attention to and she goes, well, it's great
to meet you all I guess and I appreciate the admiration.
She says directly towards you, Ash, and you must be the leader
seeing as you're so astute. She says with a corked eyebrow.
I just offer her a big grin and I was like, I do tend to lead
the way sometimes, but I heard that we have to go through some
tests here. What should those be?
Oh, you would like to meet the Queen is most likely the test
you are talking about. Yes, I am.
Yes, you are correct. And everyone that's inside the
garden. I have only not heard Franklin's
response to it so far so, but I'm assuming you followed the
whole time as well. Is going to need to make a
wisdom saving thrill. This has to.
Be against what? Oh no.
Is this something that they want to resist?
Most likely. Why?
What everyone? Within 10 feet of me gets +5 on
saves. Oh sweet.
What happened? I was. 19.
I would have put in the room or. Hanging out with.
Faust and CRO. OK so my 5 is a 10, still not
great. 19 so hoping. 25. I was trying to get back to the
sheet myself here. Everyone under a 25.
What do we even roll in? Wisdom saving thrill.
Oh. With a with a.
You get a + 5 if you were within 10 beat of me.
I would have needed a fucking OH with a plus. 5 What was the DC?
2514 OK. So only Matt passed.
Yeah, it looks like it. Franklin looks around in
disinterest. I don't have a penis and it's
all gone. Everyone.
Is Franklin OK in this place? Everyone else I'm definitely
worried about him feels A and you're not sure Agonon if it was
just that dose was a little bit too high, but you just in
particular, but everyone else feels the sudden urge to just
frolic around the garden and enjoy the many bounties it
provides. What the fuck?
Everyone. So.
Mad and. He.
Goes back and. He's.
Crawling claps, claps, claps, claps, claps.
Claps when we found a fitting outfit for Columbia during this
hold up. Nudity.
The fitting outfit is nudity. No.
Yeah, that is, that is Ezra right now.
I was going to say also probably the sudden urge to be in your
natural forms. Like Nikki?
Yeah. Birthday suits.
Yeah. Is that everyone else then?
Oh God, what do I want to do? Oh no, that's including
yourself. I was just saying specifically
you were unsure if it has to do with the garden or the drugs.
You just. OK, but I don't react any
differently than anyone else. No, no, it's just that.
So who dis? Yeah, I'm, I'm guessing Agonon
would be the most affected, so if anyone is compelled to be in
their birthday suits, I probably cannot resist.
Do I have to roll for this? You've already rolled.
OK, so everyone like what's the cut off for stripping though?
Because we're all frolicking. Who's stripping this?
Is already stripped. Ash is stripping.
She's not even trying to fight it.
She's like, yeah, OK, she's gonna get naked and then just
approach Layla in the fountain. No.
Ezra, OK. Then, yeah, he starts shedding
layers, but he neatly folds them, sets them on the edge of
the fountain, including all his belongings.
He piles them on the ground in front of the fountain.
I guess Faust is getting naked and just running around.
Probably rolling in some flowers because he has no reeling like
ultimate for Faust. I mean, I he's, he's always
struck me as. Just finding joy in the
beautiful scenery. Yeah, not like.
Gets naked, starts walking around and admiring all the
flowers in a very like. That's his version of
frolicking. Agonon is going to start
collecting mushrooms because they remind him of Nimoy, so
he's picking much. Around at everyone the.
Fuck. As fast as walking, I seem to be
under some form of magical compulsion.
This is quite lovely though. In the.
Back of your mind, you're just like, this isn't how I normally.
Act walk up to everyone and just start like pulling one hair out
of everyone's head as they are all compulsed.
Sorry, I got to recollect I got to restart my collection.
Kelly's gonna go hide in the Bush.
That is gonna be She does not want to be perceived.
Oh, wait a minute. Ezra wants to know who this is.
'Cause I guarantee you I rolled the lowest out of everybody.
No. What did you get lower than A5?
Nice, I rolled off with help or without.
Without I was just looking at the base roll.
Without, yes, I absolutely did. I got.
I got a four. Oh OK, anyways, so.
She doesn't want to be perceived right now.
She's just like. Probably go swimming in one of
the bigger fountains. Yeah, that would be her.
She would be swimming in one of the bigger fountains, just kind
of vibing, minding her business, trying to attract the least
amount of attention possible. But as all of your other.
Companies going up here. Frolic out into the garden,
Franklin and Ash's arm encircles Lilith's waist, Lilith's waist,
and Lilith returns the favour, pulling Ash in closer.
Well, seems like only one of you have passed and asked, she says.
You can go proceed down the garden path.
It leaves what is going to happen to these individuals.
They'll come back into your fold after they've had their fun.
Inside check. No, it failed, No.
I'm really bad with this 5I what was that?
Sorry, my cat was trying to eat my ice cream.
I kind of look around at everyone, like not a really a
big fan of leaving them. Yeah, and she, she's picking up
on what you're laying down even. And you, you though feel that
she's completely telling you the utmost truth.
But she also pauses enough from pulling Ash down into the
fountain with her that she's she leans back up and says there is
nothing to worry about in the garden as long as you don't get
violent with the Queen. Yeah, that's going to be a
problem with me probably and. All right, ask the Queen nicely.
I'm sure she will relinquish your friends.
Yeah. For.
For an intimate discussion. We just abandoned Franklin to do
this. Guys, if I'm supposed to win
some lust battle, this is going to go really poorly.
Unless you guys have torture equipment anyway.
OK, I'm going to take out some rope and I'm going to tie
everyone together by the waist so at least they don't wander
too far. And then I tie them to one of
the fountains and then. I draw out.
Of your own spaces. I cast levitate and I start
drifting up like a balloon. Oh shit.
How strong is levitate? Do we all levitate with her?
You just see Kalimba like shaking her wet hair in the
fountain, having her little Baywatch moment.
Kalimba, stay there God, this is going to be a disaster.
Continue, Let me continue on. Alright I can I can I hook them
all up to a like a leash and then just bring them with me?
You you can see them all as you're wandering the path up.
Out of out of the. Oh, I didn't actually.
That's not a second level cast. It's a trait.
It's a race feature that I can just cast it once for free.
I meant to, without components. I meant to put the text in there
for you guys. No worries.
You you just see Kalimba reach out of the fountain and she has
her little net bag sitting there and you just see her pull a
bottle of tanning oil out of seemingly no nowhere.
So you. She's going to catch 5. £100.
Is our entire line of people more or less than £500?
The fountain is more so. OK, but everyone else would
raise with me if. Yeah, if if possible, I'm going
to bring them with me like a balloon.
Because Franklin weighs more than £500 with his skeleton, so
we are all A1 long human centipede of Nikki Balloon.
That Franklin is now walking. Naked.
We are all naked, I think. Ezra.
Yeah. I can bring my stuff.
Yeah. How did this you guys are I
take. Photos Ezra's trying.
To Can someone sketch this please?
I do not want to see anything about fouls naked.
He's the. He's the one on the very end of
the string, the highest one up. Wait so we don't know.
Technically Agonon would be the highest one up because he's the
source of the spell. So if he's not on the end, that
means some of you are dangling next to each other, FYI.
OK, let's. Get literally and figuratively
anyway. So you.
Go yeah, I'll, I'll bring in, I'll bring up my one of my dire
crickets. We'll put Emily in the middle
and then we'll hold one each end so it forms kind of like a, like
a tent a. Triangle.
Like an arc, an arch. Oh, a little naked arch.
I think you're a. Floating adventures.
Josh. I like how I had to mute myself
and take you all speaker just to talk to my mom and that's the
first thing I hear when I put you all back on speaker.
Josh what, What is Ezra found 'cause he went frolicking and he
he found something over here. What?
What is he found? You you would have seen a a
throned figure sitting next to a large painting, but you're
interests lie specifically on the throne figure more than the
painting. Because you see this if I think
I got everybody over there right.
Ezra is here to clap your. Feet.
Oh, wait, wait, wait. Pick up line for Ezra.
Hold on, hold on.
But that's probably at the AT as you're screaming that at this
person is probably when Franklin is tying a rope around you and
saying please don't mind, my friend.
Wait, are you? Are you the Demon Queen?
And then the agonomic would be casting levitate at that point I
was guessing and I can go that the to that image if we want to
last. But but yeah, I just, I want to
check her youth. D McQueen, you look very queeny.
You look very horny. She just I want to.
I want to add it to the nonsense in the background before this
starts. You just hear kalimba from in
the air start strumming her liar playing a little background
music. Oh God.
How many people are on this rope besides me?
Thank everyone I'm trying to. I'm collecting everyone so I
don't leave anyone behind. Not interested in being on any
rope. Yeah, but I are you going to
come? Are you going to come quietly?
I feel like that sounds like. Not yeah, it sounds like not so
it would probably be. I'm going to fucking put you on
a rope. Is not coming quietly.
Let me chill, you know? I mean, Kelly would.
Kelly would complain a little bit just because you're taking
away from her from the fountain she chose.
Yeah, I mean, if you want to stay here, cool.
I just, I don't want to get yelled at it like you all get
like heated. I want if.
Of course you do. You're under a spell bro.
While you're trying to chase, chase your friends around the
garden, I guess that you see that, see that person And she
goes, of course I'm the queen. Then show me your cheeks.
Or do you continue to try and? I'll stop after I see them like
actively running away from just like, you know what, fuck them.
No. Actually, I say.
That to the air. Unless they want that Christ Hi.
Yeah, while you do that, Kelly is either.
She swaps between playing her liar for a little background and
be honest and just start out just sun tanning.
But you're on, you're on the rope.
Everyone is on the rope. Of those who I mean I.
Went everyone who didn't actively run away.
Yeah, I collected those people who weren't running away from
Mary. OK, I need to know guys, I'm
drawing this. I need to know who's on the
rope. Ash is on the rope.
I shouldn't have struggled at all when.
Franklin would have tried to kind of rally Kalimba.
She would have gripped the like rim of the fountain so tight
just. No.
You can't not getting hurt like so.
Kelly's still in her own little fountain, in her own little
bubble on her business. OK, it's Agnon Ashewell's.
And and Sauce was running away. And Ezra?
Was running away. That's just you and Ash.
Oh Ezra, I was hoping at least one more to make the arch.
Ezra is presenting himself, yeah.
We don't have to do a role to see if people escaped.
It sounds like Franklin was giving up as they were trying,
so OK. Darn.
Well, I have a. Sketch of what could have been.
Yeah, yeah. No, that's actually.
To add them in there anyway. Yeah, exactly.
Put them all on there anyways. Yeah.
Anyways, so you present yourself and the Queen takes out a big
bone from under her chair and throws it.
Oh. Hold on.
Compulsion, Compulsion, compulsion, compulsion.
I'm good one second here. We'll see how good because
you're going to need to make another wisdom save.
Oh. God.
You got to fight the urge. He's pulling out all the toys.
That and. Narrow my eyes up this lady.
You could have chose a word better than toys for that.
Seen it? I thought it was a perfect woman
for that. Kind of spot.
On So what? Was it all right 15 to not go
chase a bone? You go running off into the
bushes. I will be back to clap your
cheeks after I nod. Elbow.
I cast old person on them. I want to say I want to try to
do something roughly or. I don't even know where this is
going to lead, but oh wait. You're in the, you're in the
fountain. Why do you want to talk to me?
Only me so fucking bad, lady. I don't want to, well, I don't
want to specifically talk to you.
However, all of your friends seem to be having a good time.
Why don't you? As fuck that I got shit to do.
Oh, you're no fun. No, you remind me of someone I
used to know. Yeah, who's that?
She just. She leers over at the giant
painting next to her Sexy, sexy Satan.
She sighs. Oh.
And Ashuma and I had a little tryst before falling out.
And Ashuma. I kind of turned towards her,
hanging from the floating rope, and I'm just like, oh, Ashuma
was fun, wasn't he? You just hear Columbia yell
over. Is that her?
Did you hear Columbia yell over from the fountain?
Who? She looks back down at Franklin
and she says, You remind me of Ashuma specifically.
We didn't get along too good. He was type.
No sexy Satan, you mean? No, Ashima, Sexy Satan was all
about the sharing. Ashima is he the the
Necromancer? Yeah, you would know that he's
the CEO of the PNC. Oh, interesting.
He has an Ezra. Cool, can you let my friends go?
We were told that you were interested in opening up the
second level of hell, and we can't really do that while
they're fucking about. And she pauses in mid sigh,
takes in a deep breath and stares at you straight says, Do
you really think that you could open up the seal?
Of course I can. Well, if you insist, but know
that it is a curse that's been placed upon me by Ashima, by him
and. A seal is a curse.
In my case. And put on you by Ashima, CEO of
PNC. But the seal is native
Aliopolis. Hope you've brought the
appropriate key well. I pull out a a notebook and
start writing things some things down.
I have some questions for you. Can I be free now?
Yeah, can He wants to be free. I asked my question first.
I don't. Remember what you asked?
Pay attention. That's wrong if you.
Brought. If you brought the key.
House has the. Key.
We have the key. I thought fast.
Oh yeah, Fast pocketed it for me.
You never had the key. I don't have the key, House has
the key. And she just snaps her fingers
and you guys are all standing or floating, or standing as the
case may be, floating in the water and suddenly gain back all
your senses. Been like.
Blink since. Staring into whatever flower he
has bent over to get a good sniff of, and it's just looks
down at himself. Nods like like he's like barely
keeping it together. Keeps nodding as he walks over
to his clothes and puts them back on as dignified as he.
Can I feel like he's like Ezra? It's Ezra's fault somehow.
It's Ezra's fault. You just press the digitation to
clean himself up and makes over to join the rest of the group.
Yeah, Columbo. Floating like balloons.
Columbo would have gotten out of the fountain and it rushed over
to her outfit, which does not keep her her.
She's covered, but not by much. I'll put a picture of it in the
chat. This is kind of her whole vibe,
and that's what she'd be wearing right now, with the flowers she
picked from the garden behind her ear before joining before
look, fixing herself in the reflection of the water and
packing up her lyre and her tanning oil and joining the rest
of the group. Faust, I need key to clap
cheeks. Ezra says while saliva over a
big bone. We have to ask this lady some
questions. Faust.
I don't know if you ever heard. She said that this was a curse
placed on her by Ashima who's the head of the PNC or CEO of
the PNC. But as far as I am understand
the world and how it works, the PNC or Aliopolis is the one who
created the seals. So is the PNC of Aliopolis.
No, no. No, they're for then.
How did Ashima add the seal? He didn't add the seal.
That's what this lady just said. Yeah, I think doesn't make
sense. I guess I can't blame him
wholly, but he'd helped me ascend and it was during
Allalopolis's dissension that we were trapped along with
Manipulus. I think we should be able to
help each other. Yeah, I would.
Like that? Great.
We want to get out. Are you going to help your
friends that are floating still? They'll help themselves.
They can help. Oh, his Agonon spell only lasts
10 minutes. Oh, OK, so.
Has been 10. Minutes just false.
Lutter to the ground. Just.
Fall softly or just. Dunk.
I imagine it's like a helium balloon that's slowly dying,
like it's just a a gentle gentle come down.
Blood, so and and we are released from the the lustful
compulsions of Rollick. And what happened first?
Did the. The compulsion.
OK, well while Agonon was had his wits about him and was still
floating, he would have been like, pretend you know the
position when you're like lying on the side of a bed and you're
propped up on your elbow. Yes.
He'd be doing that, but like in the air.
And when he gets his census back?
Yeah, oh, when when he gets his census back, he well know what,
Yeah, yeah, that that would be when he gets his sentence back.
And just like, well, damage is already done.
Well, it's awfully to the ground.
And nude. And then he'll just kind of
gently set down with as much dignity as he can muster.
And is there anything nearby that he can like pick up like
flower petal? Yeah.
There's. There's some.
There's some a plethora of leaves and such, all about most.
He will gingerly pick up a clean looking leaf and just and he's
standing there primly covering himself.
Once Ash is on the ground, she's just going to untie the rope
from around her waist and just stand up and just kind of like
stand next to Franklin to talk to the queen and not care that
she's naked. She's like, we're having a
conversation. I'll go get my stuff in a
minute. It's.
Just like I'm not worried about clothes so.
You. Want to talk?
You want to talk? So you want to talk business?
Where's the key? Safe.
Well, you best be presenting it and she pulls up her dress like
off to the side and you see this immense chastity belt that is
situated. A whisper in the past year.
Make sure to identify in legend Laureate to make sure it's the
real thing. With a very suggestive key shape
at the top. So is she human sized or is she
large? She's probably large, she's
probably like 10 foot it. Matters.
OK. So a little a little bit bigger,
not like building size. No, no.
OK. Hello Miss is going to kind of
blink at the site and then just turn away a little.
I have. A.
Else can I have Keynote? Would you shut up?
But Mama actually go home. I got clap.
Cheek. I kind of want to figure out the
procedure here. We unlock your fancy belt there
and that'll break the seal. No, not quite.
What do I call you? You can call me Mal for short.
What's your full name? Said Mal.
Yes, Mal. I don't you are a ruler of a
level of help. Yep, if your.
Ex placed a curse on you and. Indeed, I'm.
Going to need more than just the seal broken to offer you the
trade you want. Oh, what trade do you think that
is? I need power.
Power to tear down the tower that exists beyond.
I need power to tear down the very gods themselves from their
Thrones. Are you talking about
emasculating Ashima? Oh, I'm so game.
Let's show him how tiny his tower really is.
Oust is going to. I feel dirty for what I'm about
to say, but Faust is going. To do it.
I thought I light the candle just to help.
Faust. And twilling it between to have
your help. I want yours.
No, not your help. I want to make a pact.
Oh, I've made a few of those in my time.
I think I can assist you. She leans in with her.
Gods. With her dress still pulled up
but her elbows on her knees. And I'll give you the key, and
perhaps once we're done in the first layer, it can be, but I
need to know that I can do it. And the first thing is tearing
down that tower. I've got a scroll that I think
can do it, but I'm not confident in my ability to succeed.
I need to know it'll work. Oh, you need a little confidence
booster? Little do you I.
Think I've got a flower for you? Confidence.
I need to know it works. So well then I would need more
details if you are inclined. Required a scroll of earthquake.
I need to destroy that tower and I need to know, even if just
once, I can cast it without any mistakes.
She leans back in the throne and goes.
Not with the seal intact, but if it is broken, we'll say that you
succeed. It would not completely destroy
the tower in the manner that you're hoping.
Part of that has to do with some of.
And she Rakes her hand back through her head like she's
trying to remember something, kind of scratching her head.
I think it was some pillow talk. Ashima had told me a while ago
of his plans to escape this planet after seals.
His seal had been broken, and he has many contingencies in place.
It may diminish it, but not completely destroy the whole
plan. At the beginning.
Do you happen to have? Any items from asthma that he
gave you? No, I've burned all those
things. OK, worth asking.
And honestly, I'm getting a little bit tired of talking
about him. Is that cutie little Dick?
Ezra will make you talk about yelping and howling.
Oh, let's hope I do have to forewarn you what happens when
you open. The belt, what Bob says is when
belt come off, happy time happens and then you feel good.
We leave everybody happy. I will be very happy if you can
finish the last challenge that sits before you and breaking the
seal. Somehow, in the curse that has
been set upon me, I was given back my Maidenhead.
Oh, no. Oh.
And. Sealed away to enjoy no
pleasures. Ezra.
Ezra leans over to Bob. What's that mean?
She's fresh as the spring morning.
Ah. Though and of course it's like.
That one where you still got to be nice about right.
Yes. Otherwise there's.
And tearing down the one that put you in in that belt.
That would be love. Lovely continued assistance in
my quest. So that's done.
We could part ways. And I will bring back wings as.
President as as as fast as saying this, Franklin's going to
kind of walk up to him in Westbury.
I might have a better option for you.
While you're whispering that into his ear, she leans forward
and taps the other side that you're not on.
Franklin's the frame of your glasses, Faust, and you see a
bit of an HUD appear on it, only that you can see with a little
kissy face emoji. OK.
I think she just gave you Google Glass, right?
I'm. Going to take that as a yes.
Yes, you may, but the other thing that you should be all
aware of is that in this curse, as the belt breaks and my
Maidenhead is revealed revealed there.
Is a. Battle set for you with a mime
of myself and some of my followers in there less pleasant
forms. It's what's kept all of the
other Pharaohs in this level from pleasing me, and why
they've all. Perished.
I think before we should start this, maybe we should get
dressed. Say this questioningly.
Agreed. Agnon's going to start backing
up towards his close. Excuse me my.
Lady. No.
We're saying, Franklin, I'm going to use a cast.
Telekinesis. Not telekinesis.
Yeah. So we can communicate or message
or whatever. So we can communicate.
You were saying, Franklin? Yeah, you seem to want an ally
to help you contest the gods themselves.
Don't. There's no reason that we can't
have more than. That's fair.
But we I know of a new a new ally far up in the sky that
might be a worthy investment for you to discuss with.
Well. Don't worry about that, we can't
access the sky. I look up.
He'll contact you sure soon enough, I'm sure.
Soon as everybody's dressed and ready, Faust is going to put
that key in and do it. Actually, no, no, no, I'm sorry.
I forgot the thing. I was going.
Fuck. I'm not worried.
You fights. Ezra ready?
One hand over the tape over the throne.
Agonon had Did he have time to go back and get his clothes?
You guys are all good there. OK.
Yeah, I would say Ash would have bowed and ran back, got dressed
and then came back to the meeting.
So fast, Ezra, just Ezra just stays there in the buck.
Ready. I get her.
I use all my prep stuff and and for the fight.
You just see Columbus fiddling with her appearance again before
the fight. Sorry, go.
Ahead. No profiles.
Big reveal. That's not even a big reveal.
Fuck I don't feel good doing this.
Like not publicly at least. Key hovering over it.
Since we're in agreement, I think you want this a little bit
more. I think you're lit call.
Oh honey, I will call you daddy if you like.
Oh no, you hear Kalima vomit again in the background.
I just hear the splash on the floor behind me.
Then you put the key in and turn it.
Yep. It might turn Faust.
This. As the key turns you, you guys
all standing around see the there is little cogs that had
made themselves disappeared into the into a smooth metal work
before start to turn shift and then leave her open into this
beautiful blossoming flower blooming open.
And a the next thing you you, you get this almost overwhelming
lavendery floral sense that overwhelm even your sight as the
sound smell goes farther into your into your brain and kind of
you. The next thing you see is a I'm
getting it one second. You guys will have a second to
rearrange yourselves, but I'm just placing you there.
Then we had like a minute to prep right?
I don't like this map. Oh no.
I really don't like teeth. I'm on comfy.
I've. Seen this movie?
It's like, it's like fighting Yog in World of Warcraft.
All right, Yeah. I think it's a perfect spot to
reorganize yourselves and contemplate your life choices.
Maybe. I'm heavily contemplating if
something like Columba Woody. Is what it looks like
underneath. Fast has changed his mind.
All right, Adam, Ezra, you're going to want to rage.
Oh, Ezra's going to rage and go. Let me clap them cheeks.
What was that? I'm missing Is Bob going to come
with us and my token is missing. One second Bob for sure is off
in the garden still like the the the persuasion that was falling
all over you guys. Where did your token go on this
map? I don't know, I actually wasn't
keeping track of it. Oh, I found it.
It was hidden camouflage into the background.
He he did not come back when the like persuasion stopped.
You know, like over everyone. Everyone.
Yeah, I don't think he was going to fight it.
Bob just was still enjoying the garden.
I've got a question before. Well I'm thinking over potential
courses of action. Does the adamantine fans do any
more base damage or does it Or is it the same?
It should be the same. OK, so that lets me know what I
want to do. OK, got you.
But yeah, that's a good spot for you to call it probably too.
Is this the real castle? The veins greatly disturbed me.
The the like. Is this what I think it is?
I don't like that little herpes blisters.
I'm out, I'm out. I'm surprised that I I icked the
the biology. Yeah, well, I was going to say
specifically to the one that enjoys a good shoot.
What's the the? Audio War is not my go to.
OK. But no, this is a yeah.
OK. I did not have toothy vagina
arena on. You know.
You better put that on your bingo, Jerry Ezra.
Doesn't know if. He's supposed to attack the
Sinner, or if he's supposed to clap the cheeks of all the all
the demon women around him. We kill it.
I will say, surprisingly, this is the second weirdest
conversation that I've had since This is the second weirdest
conversation I've had today, so. Say something about cheese
sticks. I hope to God not.
Oh my. God.
Saw the artistic rendition of how the balloon arch works.
Thanks. Oh.
Beautiful. Yeah, I'm not as uncomfortable
as I thought I'll be. Honestly, I really don't care,
especially with the conversation I had earlier was with the group
of my friends is I? Wasn't kidding, I've seen that
movie. I want no.
I have also seen that movie in the worst way probably.
Wait, which movie? That's actually a movie.
I skipped teeth, yeah. Oh yeah, I skipped that one too.
My friends got me to watch it 'cause I can't make make it
references about it. Yeah.
Deeply regret watching it. Nope.
I don't know. I don't know if I finished it, I
think I might have noped out in the middle of it like.
Don't seem enough. Don't blame you.
I'm surprised there are two of these little pimply things.
They're not what I thought. We we have to pop them and when
we do. Columba is going to throw it
when y'all do it. Little like we pop them in like
little like bacteria. Phage monsters coming.
Oh. Well, don't we just have to you
guys? I don't know.
Initiative, basically. That's why I let you guys pick
where you're going to be first. Are we doing initiative now or
we're doing it next time? Next time I'm just letting you
know. Already closed the game.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was just letting you know.
He couldn't stare at that. Ezra, Ezra going to move himself
between these two right here, yes.
Columba is going to and. It's less that I'm grossed out
and more that like this makes the same thing, that thing like
the little country boy in me is deeply uncomfortable.
And it's. OK, but.
Yeah, that's the that was, that was the goal.
It was achieved. You did it.
So my husband's desk is next to mine and he can't hear all of
you, but he can see the screen and the look he's giving me
tonight. Oh my God.
I know Johnny's in bed and I'm like he is missing this.
Let me think of where I want to put Kalumba real quick.
Hold up, like to? Say, Josh, I'm very deeply
disappointed to learn that you're not going to let me
destroy the entire game engine with an earthquake spell.
Yeah, I mean. It's a tower, wanna blow it up?
It it's sort of a tower. That's the.
Problem sort of a tower is, is
it more like a space elevator? Yeah, a little bit.
So it's being held up by like, orbital tension?
Cool. That's, that's going to be some
of the oil again. Yeah, some of the the things
that they've been working in on. You know, remember I was, I
don't know if you were there for that session or not, but their
ultimate goal was laid out by Zenith saying that they were
planning to get to the moon. Yeah, but that does not mean
you're I'm going to build my Tower of Babel all the way
there. No, just to the outer atmosphere
so it's easier to get there. Isn't building where I want to
put, isn't. Building a fucking the space
elevator significantly more difficult than just building a
rocket. Yeah.
I mean, that's why we haven't done it in the first place.
But when you have unlimited workforce labour, that also is
completely under your control. Not too hard.
Oh, then they don't sleep, so you know.
And magic spells to like, make things, like, not weigh things.
Yeah, OK. I'll, I'll shut the fuck up.
That's going to happen. No, I I love the I love the,
the, the thought process. It definitely still fuck up some
of their shit. Don't get me wrong.
It's like what you're saying. It's a good.
Hey, slow them down, that's all you got to do?
Grand Am's fuck. Because Grand Am's plan was to
like, use shape Earth, but that's not big.
Yeah. And to be completely upfront
with what happened there, you you stumbled into a glyph of
teleportation on the that's in part of that associated
specifically with your guys's contract.
So there was like I. Figured I figured that out.
There. That's why there was no save.
I can't wait for his trial. It's going to be great.
I'll have I'm debating something heavily related to the whole
Grand Am situation. Jacob knows about it, I've
talked to him about it, but I don't know what I want to do.
What you been here? 'Cause like the character that I
have in mind that I want to grand am die will not stick
around because of the contract. So I don't know what I want to
bring in. Like, I got to have a character
that would stick around through that kind of bullshit like.
Because like this is where my decision comes in.
My very works properly. My very stubborn dwarven paladin
would definitely not stick. Around Golderon.
And Golderon would not stick around.
He would not like. What do you mean?
I have to join a death cult? No.
OK, bye y'all. I'm going to go walk in this
direction. He, well, he probably smite the
shit out of him. What he would do is probably go
off solo still trying to take down the P&C, but yeah, he can't
stick around with a rum roller that that if he.
None of us really signed it. It just kind of.
Yeah, he'd fuck off. Like the the rum rollers are
defined as like people that hang out on Nibbaway and shit.
So you know. The boys might.
The you mean that? Yeah, sorry.
We all. Hang out on Nimbaway and.
She would object. Yeah, seriously.
Things have changed. After getting a visual picture
of the whole, you know, skull thing, I came up with the backup
character specifically for the good campaign that is related to
0. So 'cause like.
I just feel like the good campaign just kind of fucked
themselves. No for real, 0 didn't even do
anything, he just kind of reluctantly stuck around and
now? Cat was there for it, but she
wasn't the instigator, that's for sure.
Like like. Oh for the fuck?
We've become the good guy. Yeah, I think I pretended to be
a normal fucking chicken the whole time.
You did? Oh my.
God, you really did because you guys, you guys seen a giant like
12 foot skeleton come to life in front of you and you guys were
what, like sevens and eights and you're like, I don't think we
can do this. So we're going to try and be
friends. Yeah.
Well, let me just give you all a little brief description of the
character that if everything goes wrong with 0, I'm going to
play. She's Zero's sister, but she's
essentially like Heaven's version of a super weapon and
the FBI simultaneously. So she will be investigating
Sero's death heavily if something happens.
Like she's going to be all the pink eye's business, so.
Getting ready for bed? I'll catch you all here.
Goodnight. So wait, what's all this talk of
making new characters I don't understand?
I'm making backup. Characters in case making the
backup characters in case stuff hits the fan.
So. Is that likely?
I'm what? I mean.
I think everybody's reading into the fact that everything is
building and culminating to the point of taking down and
fighting against the, the PNC who's been, you know, a big
factor in the campaign so far. So they're they're planning for
the worst. Yeah, I'm like.
Weren't we specifically told to not fight them yet?
I thought we were going to that that place.
You guys were going to go fight fight them in the good campaign
because found written on a seed from from Lono.
The other thing in there the encouragement to face them as
well. I mean, you were there for.
Right, I'm sorry, I forgot the seed.
Grand am disappearing, but that is that, as well as everybody's
general take after the the meeting with the Shadow Seekers
is that you guys weren't going to become gods, at least not
overtly at this. Time and it would take like a
year to like incubate, we found out.
Pretty important. I guess I got a hot box have a
good. 1 but y'all miss or everybody or two.
The 2 two of you all here. Missed Zero's little character
arc last time. I did, yeah.
I don't really have a direction for him now.
That was kind of all I hope to achieve with him was with him
pretty much breaking to his core and not being a narcissistic
Gasol anymore. But so I don't know where I want
this to go, but I do have his sister as a backup character, so
just in case. So Josh, the seed with the
encouragement on it, is that only encouragement if the seed
is planted? It just said basically, you
know, I believe in you guys, you can do it kind of thing from
from the the. God SO1 dragon told us not to go
and the other one told us to go. And the one God Goddess Dragon
was the goddess of knowledge who told you not to, and the other
one was the God of cultivation battle.
Cultivation and battle. Yeah, who?
Told you you can do it so you can see where their conflicting
views stand. OK, I just, I didn't want
because like there are respectful ways for DMS to be
like, guys, you're going to get yourself killed if you do this
and step in. And I thought that that's what
was happening. I just, I don't want to do
something stupid when we have been clearly warned because I'm
very attached to my character. But if once if there was
conflicting advice from the same mechanic, then I guess I'm less
scared about it. I'm attached to Columba, just
not so much zero. I love him as a character, I
just have nowhere else I currently want to go with him so
I'm just going to see how this next session goes and then go
from there. But Columba is my main focus and
she has been since the beginning so.
But his his sister's cool too. If I had to play her I wouldn't
be too mad either. I would be playing a Ranger for
the first time so that'd be interesting.
But. I personally just completely
hats off. Wouldn't be like deathly afraid
of it, I guess because of the fact that there there's only
ever been I'm. I'm generally very good about
managing a situation. If I see something happening to
the point where you know you don't want to lose your
character, then I will mitigate the loss.
OK, thank you because I was seriously starting to consider
having them away. Walk away because I would rather
her not participate in a session than die.
Yeah. And then also on top of that,
we've only ever had one person die and it was of her own choice
so. OK, OK, thank you.
Yeah, because I I would have actually just not showed up to
the to the session and had her not manifest.
Yeah, if no. It was too risky.
We see I have a decision I want to make that I would have to
talk to Josh about depending on the outcome.
And I don't know regarding 0 and I don't know if I want this to
be his full circle moment or if I want him to kind of continue
with his antics. Shoot.
I don't know, it's really like it would involve me directly
killing off my character. Let me just phrase it like that.
Like me directly, but it would be a good like story plot for a
future character as well as the rest of the party.
And I did. And if he, if I decide not to do
that, then I have a direction I don't kind of want to go.
Not really. But it's just like a little side
like thing I want to do with him.
But I don't know, I'm too indecisive for this.
It takes me like 2 weeks to make decisions so.
I'll see. I have the exact opposite thing.
I tried really hard not to think about what happens and both my
characters were created on impulse decisions.
Yeah. Yeah, so if they die, the next
character is going to be made the same way you.
Know I try to link somewhat like my characters group together.
Kalimba is like the little outlier because I wanted to
bring my interest in Greek mythology in it somehow and she
was my little outlet to do that. So from here on out I'm probably
going to fight not exclusively, but pretty much exclusive
majority Asmars to be like 0's kind of bloodline or whatever.
Like how Jacob has the Grand Am's I'm going to have I see
Zero's whole family tree I. Have a fair you have a good
night. Good night, I'm rolling.
Directly behind you. Yeah, I'm rolling out.
Myself, right, guys? OK.
Night, night. Yeah.
That's a grand and wonderful thank you for those who took the
time and made it here to the end of the episode where I know
sometimes we are long winded and others we are just dead silent.
