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
Allelopolis and Seen. Oh, and Greg?
Yeah, baby. We're in trouble.
Tell us what to do. I'm in danger.
The Hand of Fate tosses, the dice rolls, spins, turns.
The campaign starts and ends, leaving memories that become
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 the campaign that
gave it birth comes again and again.
The Hand of Fate tosses. The dice rolls spin, turn.
Hitherto we left our adventurers, known as the
Shatter Seekers on the 4th level of Hell Greed.
They had just convinced A. Or.
Coerced the pimp preacher to begin pulling dynamite out of a
magazine that was cursed and he became cursed each time he
pulled a new crate out in a total of three times.
Once he can only. He cannot consciously cross
water now and he also only has corporeal form at night and is
also a female as opposed to his original that was the pimp
preacher and. We can use that.
Oh, and Franklin had the pimp preacher sign a contract not to
tell anyone about the the torture he'd been put through.
Yeah, unfortunate business not disclosure thing.
And then Franklin set a swarm of dire crickets about displacing
the dynamite across the town, in between the grate of the floor
in the insulated layer of the magma below.
At the same time, Ash enlarged the main stack of dynamite to
twice its size, and everyone poofed into the pocket rocket.
Everyone else. And then Franklin instructs
Akbar, the the lead cricket of his current contingent, to run
away as soon as the fireworks start.
Akbar liked the fuse with only 24 of the 30 crickets that had
made it out and back into the pocket rocket and he takes off
to a nook in just on the upper portions of the Chamber of the
goblin town where where he sits using and Franklin uses his eyes
to project the vision. OK so he Franklin's looking
through Akbar's eyes and uses that project uses that image to
project on the wall inside of the pocket rocket.
And everyone sees as across the entire town magma billows up
swallowing the entire town hole leaving only bits floating or or
debris and wreckage behind killing thousands.
And Franklin tells the goblins in the pocket rocket it's
Caixon's fault and Ezra and Ash here in their heads, a billow of
rage from Caixon and he mentally slaps them with it before he
takes control of the goblin pimp preacher, who tells them that
they have to tells the Shadow Seekers that they have to strike
the anvil in the center of the chamber floating in the magma
before the whole chamber fills with magma, killing them all in
a in a disagreement. Baltasar Faust, new compatriot
to the Shadow Seekers, Mommy, Mommy and Phelan pop into
existence as well during this time to discuss with everyone
how to move forward and that it is certainly a trap.
Ezra decides to be the bait for the trap and jumps out of the
pocket rocket with a solution of striking the anvil as one of the
dire crickets moves over top of it.
Still at the roof of the chamber and he drops down Heroes Stand
style gongs the anvil and a large fiery magma creature
51015202530354040 feet tall comes bursting out of the magma
as the magma stops filling the chamber and Kai Shen laughs
through with a pimp preacher. Let's find out what happens this
time. So yeah, guys are inside of the
pocket rocket, still watching. I'm guessing from the dire
cricket projection exactly how to proceed.
Kai Shen does finish his laughter and say, well, now the
only way out is through that creature.
Hope you have fun. I'll be seeing you soon.
OK, so we have to get to the anvil.
Is that what he called out to us?
No, no. Oh, I already just.
Start the fight. The Anvil already run.
That's where I went. It's I'm in Ogremac.
I already rung the bill. Oh, if we hit it again, does he
just go away? Oh no, try hitting it again.
OK, so are we going to so the field is lava?
There are. Videos.
Of wreckage around that is isn't fully magma.
I cast water walking on all of us.
I feel our most ever. Count for lava.
Yes, yes, for my. How's it really does it?
Keep us from burning. Has it actually has it in the
description, which I don't think it had it before.
I think they updated it. But yeah, we have actually
treated water as lava before with.
My past rulings too, so yeah. But it says the spell grants the
ability to move across any liquid surface such as water,
acid, mud, snow, quicksand or lava, as if it were harmless
salt ground. Damn, damn damn, that's huge.
Damage from the heat, but we all have those fire necklaces.
The resistance. Yeah.
And it says up to 10 Wheeling creatures you can see within
range gain this ability for the duration of one hour and it is
not concentration. How many creatures?
Up to 10. Huge.
Ash coming in clutch. Do you?
With that God, I need the ability to turn invisible.
Do I have that ability? I was going to say if I got
banishment can we just make it go poop?
That is, that's part of the plan.
I shouldn't laugh. I do.
I have banishment. I too have banishment.
Don't worry, Kashian, I got you. Don't worry.
We're about to have a meeting. Meeting.
Good. Time, buddy.
And a pit. And a pit roaster.
Me, you and a pit. Roaster, I turn to you guys and
say, all right, I better pop out, take a real quick scan,
cast a spell that hopefully should do some initial damage,
and then hopefully pop back in. Is that alright with everyone?
I'm OK with this. So.
Are you sure? Are you sure?
I thought we were looking at this with the cricket's eyes up
in like a Cliff side. Yeah, but I have to be able to,
and I kind of slap a book that's on my side, point this at a
creature directly. And I don't think I could do
that through the, you know, the projector.
And you need to, OK, you need to be invisible.
So hold on, hold on. Give me a SEC.
Give me a. SEC do a minor image to like
make it look like I'm a rock. Visibility because I am shadow
touched so I can cast invisibility on you for up to
one hour. But it is a concentration spell.
But if you just needed to like step in and step out, I would
say we could do that. Yeah, if it's not too much of A
resource and then I can get some information on.
This thing concentrate on. You could concentrate on
invisibility, because I can concentrate on banishment.
I mean, I think we're going to need multiple casts of it.
Probably. No.
Yeah, I can totally spend one of these on you.
So I will turn to you, and I'm like, all right, if you're going
to go out there, you better be safe.
And I put my hand upon your shoulder and whisper for you to
just disappear into the wind, and you go invisible.
And visibly give you a huge hug. And I like, awkwardly hug the
air because I'm like OK, I can feel him.
I will then ready my action to cast what it was it insect
plague centered on the monster as I poof out.
Oh wait, no I won't do that. I'll use the book first because
insect plague is an offensive spell and it will make me lose
invisibility. So I ready my action to analyze
the creature with my book. I say to myself 20% or 10%
chance that I saw that an Angel so and I I do that.
You're pooping out of the pocket rocket.
Yeah, we are currently on the ground if I remember the the
bug. Yeah, the the cricket move here.
Yeah. Wait, where?
And so. Oh, so we're on some kind of
building top that managed to survive whatever whatever weird
catastrophe happened here? Whatever terrible thing that
happened, Whatever terrible thing.
Yeah, that terrible thing. I like noticeably buffer.
There's more muscle mass for some reason starting to look
like a ninja turtle. So as you, you poo you, you poof
out and you're readying the book to point it at the creature, is
what you're saying? Yeah.
OK. And so I can gain some
information. And invisible, correct?
Yes, and invisible and Crouch down and hide.
So you, Cat or Ash, have made Franklin invisible before he
leaves the pocket rocket. Yes.
OK, so the purple smoke would be would be invisible as you come
back out next to an invisible cricket that you're wondering if
it's even alive anymore because you're no longer feeling its
senses and you're probably as you're standing on the thing
that you're standing on not not very unsure why it's probably
not alive anymore. I put it in my pocket and I
Akbar. I scan the thing.
They serve me well, Akbar. Time to rejoin the herd.
So you're just pointing it at OK.
I'm trying to find the item again.
Should be in your inventory, although technically it's the
upgraded form. Think some stuff happened.
I was looking something else up where I would be going there
too, yeah.
There it is. So I direct this leather book
with gold text at an object with intent.
The guy roll an intelligence check, guidance myself or
intelligence based skill if this is a magic item or some other
magic imbued object. If you instead drank it at a
creature, you know what the book knows about the creature.
You're assuming gold letters on the creature.
Read Creature Codex. Yep.
So did you make the you want to make that check as well as a
stealth check for me? With advantage because I'm
invisible, correct? Only got a 1 + 1.
Got a natural 20 Oh. Yeah.
All right. And then intelligence,
Franklin's not the most intelligent.
Do I have any intelligence based skills?
No. You.
I guess I'll just roll intelligence.
See the creature while you're trying to scan it break off just
a a Shard of rock from its back, almost as if it was just a stick
and it showed no more care than that.
And it threw it. It kind of probably crushed it
first and then threw it in the air and you see in front of it
floating. Now to gargoyles.
Something friends. I failed poorly.
With the three. +2 cuz I got guidance.
Yeah, so you know that. So it kind of flips to a page on
the book, and then that page you see the name Ogramach, and then
a bunch of stats populate. And then just tell me where
you're going. What's the first thing you're
looking at? Very first thing.
Weaknesses, vulnerabilities, resistances.
You see of conditioned immunities before it flickers
and it glitches on the page almost as it's like like a
staticky formation on it. And the first thing you see as
your speed reading are like I said, no, no, no, there wasn't
anything that it was saying weakness is wise because in that
column we're just a bunch of immunities and including such
are poison charmed, frightened, paralyzed, petrified, poison
prone. That's why it took you so long
before it started watching fuck. This thing is a mute to
everything. In the end and its resistance
was bludgeoning, piercing, slashing and not from non
magical attacks. Magical you fucked.
Was there was there anything in there in the immunities list
that was damage wise or just condition?
Just condition, but well, technically no, poisoned is a
condition as well. It doesn't say it is.
Well no, no going back up damage it poison.
OK. OK, shit, that's just a lot of
stuff. OK then.
Oh wait. And then I'm assuming I'm not
going to be able to recast this, which is fair, and I think I
need to roll the dice to determine if I summon an Angel.
Oh, that reminds me. 10% chance when I wield this item I summon
an Angel SO1D100I assume zero to 10.
Yep. Come on, baby.
Fuck. All right then, on the next next
turn, I pull out the staff of Swarming Insects and cast Insect
plague centered on the thing before pooping back into or
before. Gosh, I don't want to leave this
thing out here. My mount is yeah did.
You, oh, you're in there. The first, the first thing, the
the thing that caused damage. You're not invisible anymore.
Yeah, I was not to be. That person something that has
damage right? But if I'm casting it and then
GTFO ING. No, I'm pretty sure it's when
you take an action in general. To do that, yeah.
To do anything, drop invisibility if it's not like a
dash action. See the spell is where is the
spell a target that attacks or casts a spell, attack, or.
Casts yeah, so I didn't attack it and I don't think I cast a
spell so I will lose invisibility as soon as the as
soon as the I cast the spell. But it's a 10 minute area of
effect damage spell and I'm hoping we can just sit there and
watch. Oh.
I was, I was, I was. I was wondering that thing that
you did to find out it's immunities that that wasn't a
spell, was it? No, that was the item's ability.
OK, that's what I worried about for like 1/2 a second.
Why I switched the order, yeah. So.
So yeah, once I do that, I will. I will.
I guess I'll pick the thing up, look around me and see if
there's a a safe place to to nook the, the, the pocket
rocket. OK since my guy is dead or
actually what I'll do is I'll dismount because my mount find
seed is affected by spells that affect me so it is also
invisible so I'll tuck it into into its pouch or saddle or
mouth butthole I don't know, could you?
Oh, distracted, could you? So you, you're, you're.
I'm just invisible and stealthy. No, it's nothing of that nature
here. Yeah, that's.
And it'd be real crappy, this thing at True Sight.
Where's the mask? I have have half movement speed
because the ground is hot and OK OK, so would only be OK.
That's what this is what I've been researching in the meantime
and you would be so you when you dismounted especially you were
taking that which your mount should also would actually be
taking this. Oh, Jesus.
Because you your mount doesn't have the resistance fire
resistance on it. Oh.
Yikes. Wait, what is your mount?
Well, dire cricket with. Yeah, he's not.
I have cast fine Steed and took it.
It has taken the form of a dire cricket, fully grown.
Don't we have a skeleton we can just run around on?
It doesn't like it doesn't care about fire, does it?
Where it cares about fire a little bit, just not as much.
Uh. Oh.
OK, I have taken that and so has the steed.
OK. Oh, see you, you, you got your
steed up. I was going to try and find it
for you if you didn't have it. Yeah, it's the turn to your
brown. And you're taking the pocket
rocket and shoving up the steed's butt, is what you said.
I'm just trying to, I'm trying to find a safer place to put it
than sitting just on the ground. I originally thinking giving it
to it and then maybe having it go, you know, climb somewhere
hopefully to avoid more damage. OK.
So I mean it it has a bit of a family if I remember correctly.
So it probably still take that that initial damage after coming
out of the pocket rocket landing on the thing, seeing the other
one dead, you taking the time to scan and then cast and then here
it is go to the thing. But you you could, you know,
foreseeably instruct it to move to the ceiling from there while.
I do. Just to clarify, when it's no
longer in contact with you, does it still get affected by the
invisibility? Yeah, it's like if you cast
haste on somebody or it's twin spelled it is while you were
while it's out and you were like so alive.
OK, if I can find I can, I can post the chat too or the text as
well. No, I'm, I I I believe it.
I was just. I was just checking in before
you pooped back into the pocket rocket.
With the pocket rocket up at the air.
Crickets butt on on the ceiling. Yeah.
Do you want to roll some damage for the creature?
I don't know how that spell actually work either, Does it?
Is it targeted? Yeah, the cloud or the the
insect plague? Yeah.
Do they have a like I mean plague 5 E Yeah.
So it is forming. Biting Locus.
Fill a 20 foot radius sphere centered on a point you choose
within range 300 feet. The sphere spreads around
corners. Fear remains for the duration
and the area is obscured. Lightly obscured spheres area is
difficult terrain. When an area appears, each
creature and it miss make a con save.
Take 4D10 piercing damage on a fail or half on success, it
ends. If it ends its turn in the
thing, it makes another save at the end of its turn and it lasts
for 10 minutes. 10 minutes. OK, all right, so.
And they're actual insects though, right?
I mean, it is a magical spell. It's a conjuration spell.
It doesn't say that they have a health pool.
OK. 5th level conjuration here. Let me post it.
Goodnight. Thank you.
Poop, poop, poop back into the pocket rocket.
I guess ow ow. Shit, it's really hot out there.
God. It's bad out there, huh?
Like standing on the floor. Just birds.
You apparently. I guess.
I should probably have gotten out of the lava, right?
A little bit smarter. Anyway, I spelled out the list
of immunities and resistances and everything that I have
gotten from the thing. I got to do a really good job on
my role. I apologize.
It's a MUE to poison, immune to charmed, frightened, paralyzed,
petrified, poisoned, and prone. So check your spells.
Don't do those and you gotta do magical damage.
I and I, if I can turn the oh, I don't have them anymore.
So outside I have my guy out of the ceiling that the I cast a
big insect playing storm on the guy.
So the last about 10 minutes, if the guy can like leave, probably
won't do more than like a groud or two of damage.
But if he's like stationary, I don't know that he'll be there
for a little while. But he looks big, he looks
tough. We're going to have a rough
ride. No, we're going to do it.
We got this. I believe in us.
I turn to Bob and I'm like, Hey Bob, have you ever heard of this
thing before? Sorry, it was a little sleep
there. Yeah, thing.
What is the thing? I describe what look at.
The page and I point out the name Ogre Bogger.
Oh yeah, I'll just hold up like Bob Skull and be like, can you
read this? I cover up the title of the
book. He's.
Probably read that book. And probably have you see the
pinpricks of purplish flame that are his eyes kind of side eye
you Franklin as you're covering up the title.
And then he looks back at the book and and goes, oh, oh,
grandma, that that's who you're fighting.
Yeah, he's outside. Oh, dear Lord, I should have
chosen a better mistress. I mean, you guys, you guys can
get this. You got this.
I believe in you. Yeah.
He's a he's he's a bit of a bit of a handful.
Although, although you might not be able to, you know, charm or
frighten or anything. Him her magical.
Yeah, but. Not magical snacks.
I know that he has a bit of a a A likes likes to chill brah
mentality whenever it comes to a certain rock.
A certain rock, yeah. I'm not.
Sure, like a type of rock or a singular rock.
Well it's generally crystals I've seen and or heard of that
he prefers and it's a type. It's from, from, from what I
understand from the warlocks that I've interacted with
anyways, they have attested to his affinity towards these,
these rocks. They're, they're, they're
crystalline in nature and he somehow smokes them.
I don't really understand the Physiology.
OK. Do we have any so?
He's he's a myth. Wait do we have any MSG left?
I do. I do.
Might be all we need. Unless somebody got into my bag,
I had like a brick of MSG that I had just been taking like small
hits off of very infrequently. I think we can use this.
If you're willing to give it up as a bargaining chip, this might
be our way out. Yeah.
I mean, yeah. I'll.
Be sad to see it go, but if we live we can get more.
Yes, if, unless everybody's trying to die.
I mean, you know, we just want to ride valiantly into battle.
You know I have axes, but. Aren't we in hell?
Can't we like, not die? That's true.
I think it's been hinted at that we are, that we are dead.
I like we're dad. I know I'm dad.
Can we die again? What happens if we die again
after death? Or maybe this guy will just make
us his bitch. Could be.
So. Are you?
I'm a bitch in the years. Yeah, I turned to Bob and I'm
like, would, would, would a brick of MSG appeal to this guy
at all? That's I'm not so sure of
exactly. Usually he's interested in in
his jaw kind of just like hangs open for a moment.
A a larger than that. He's quite large if you haven't
seen him. I haven't been out there.
I. Have narrow.
Oh I was going to say I have a brick of MSG but I don't know
how much that is. I think it's 1 LB.
Yeah. They have something.
I have rose quartz. What what?
What might you have? Franklin goes and to his inner
hive and retrieves an object. It is what appears to be 1/3 of
a butt crystal. What's?
1/3. 1/3. 1/3 of a butt. Yeah, but like 1/2 of a butt.
Like you can't really tell it's a butt unless there's two halves
and so then how? I mean, it doesn't really matter
if it looks like a butt. Then how how would I recognize
it's a third? Well, it's true.
It would be. I.
Guess it would be one side or the other.
I don't know what these look like because they're supposed to
be like teeth with like the molars on top or like butts,
right? Yeah, I I I agree with my
earlier description, but my brain immediately went to what's
1/3 of a butt? The anus.
Looks like a star fruit. I'm going to roll.
I'm going to roll 1D6. If I get a one or two, I'm going
to say that I have the top, which is the butt.
I have a silk stone. 034 So I probably have like a center, the
center 3rd. So I have a a cylinder of
crystal that is probably like, I don't know, 2 feet.
Like hope this guy likes ass. You can't be charmed.
Can it be tempted in? Any other I'm sure you can't.
Everyone has like their weaknesses.
Temptations of the flesh. Yeah.
Franklin cracks his neck. Would never do it again, but you
know, desperate times. Does he like turtle?
Because I was thinking, I've just been like, hey, do you want
to smoke this butt crystal with me?
Well, OK, we have to see if we can talk to him.
So kind of depends on who can speak.
Oh. Yeah, Did you?
Hear. Him speak at all?
No. So we're going to have to go out
there. Are you utilizing or can you
utilize your mount the same way you use your?
I doubt it OK unless you specifically allow it, but.
Yeah, yeah. On a one off ruling just right
the second, I would probably without, you know, future
ramifications, you know. I mean, I could also say that I
took a minute and recast Find familiar, which would be
effectively the same thing. OK, I didn't know that.
I mean, oh, so they. It would just give me my guy
back. No, yeah.
I was more thinking or I was asking whether or not you were
looking at into the chamber while that while this discussion
was happening inside the pocket rocket or if you're projecting
some of the things that were happening in there because I was
going to describe some of that. Yeah, if you will allow me to
retro or reactively like recast by unfamiliar before I pooped
back, it takes a minute of ritual casting, I will have done
that. But that is a you decision.
Oh no, I was. I was thinking more like you
would have the ability to utilize the, the vision that you
were using through your your. I keep calling it a horde, but
you're there's another word for it.
The you're. Familiar.
No, the rest of the dire crickets.
Oh, the ones that are still there, like in the pocket
rocket. Yeah, I mean, sure, but I would
have to be looking through something.
Well, because what they're, what are they though?
They are assume some kind of RP thing that you and I have
weirdly created that has no real amorphous form because I have
the familiar, I have a steed and then the familiar started a
colony which has just been growing.
What were you using to look through the other cricket's eye?
Eyes is what I was referring to. Oh, the ability for anyone with
a familiar to see through its eyes and senses.
Oh, OK. So yeah, I mean, it's still
your, I mean. It's familiar to do it.
It's so Ferdinand is still you're familiar.
He's just a seed now. And so that would be amenable in
my, my mind, even as a future ruling because he's, he's part
of the there. There was something else there.
And you were a originally a Ranger of something.
I was originally a swarm keeper Ranger but I used none of their
abilities so I switched to just chain warlock.
I got it now. Yeah, it's, it's that's what I
was, that's the word I was looking for was bugging me.
African swarm. So is the swarm that I was that
I was trying to refer to though. But yeah, if they're just
familiar to you then. That that'll work too.
Looks fine, the TV pops on and you guys see something.
Ogrima is batting at the things that were attacking him, and
then what looks like he just while he's batting, it almost
looks as if there is got to be some sort of platform for how
smoothly he lowers into the lava, or magma rather, and then
into you suppose whatever is below that.
And then he just does the same thing on the other side, almost
as if there was an elevator below him, and switches position
away from the centered port. But that would still leave him
with one turn of damage. So it's upon save.
Yep, he had a. 15 Yeah. So he saves taking half damage.
4D10 It's fine. We learned something.
He has movement. It's a weird elevator sort, so
it makes me think he's stuck on the ground somehow. 21 / 210 or
11, your choice. Piercing.
I won't even have him roll for poison.
I relay this to everybody and say, so are we going to try to
get the guy hooked on math? Are we going to try to upgrade
Bob, which we have to tell him about, or are we going to try to
fight this thing one-on-one now that we're not in imminent
danger of getting thrown into the lava?
What was? I said we tried.
What was the first shot? Yeah, get him hooked on drugs.
Yes. Yes, that one.
I say we start with the drugs I've.
Been here, we start because even if we have to battle, it's going
to be easier if he's hopped up on drugs.
Yeah, he's going to make bad decisions.
Yeah, he's going to make mistakes.
Yeah. So then in that case we should
plan for that and then also plan the alternative, which would be
a quick banishment so that we could get things set up.
So should we pop out all start saying things in different
languages, see if he responds and someone with banishment who
can sneak sneak? Right now there's a a 5050 on
the vote as to what I can see though too because KIRO, Vamira
or Zenora haven't waited on on this plan just but we can assume
silence means yes. Silence means silence means do
whatever is not going to kill me.
It's fine with me. Man input.
As long. As it's some real shit, yeah.
It should work. Who may Who has banishment?
I do. I do and is it technically a
charm? No.
Yeah.
I was going to say a lot of my stuff is around like charming
people and maybe. I have charming person and I
have hold person which like wouldn't work.
Yeah, I don't anyway, 'cause he's he's humanoid, he's got two
arms, 2 legs and no. I'm pretty sure he's like
classified as a giant or some shit like that.
Like. All my stuff is around like
fear, so I get it. But no, management is a is a
control type spell, so it's not. It won't like cause any sort of
charm. OK, so then let's do either of
you have the ability to sneak and or do we recast invisibility
so that you can ski Daddle over there to get ready to banish him
if he doesn't like the idea of getting high?
I want to guess that he can. He's probably speaks Primordial
or abyssal and I don't have either of those languages.
I have primordial I. Was going to say I do have
Goblin. I would say I should be the one
to talk to him to try to get him.
Like yes getting high sounds good but but I don't know I
don't speak his. Language.
Do we have tongues the spell? I don't.
Know unfortunately I have no spells.
And. All I have to.
Do the hip things, rage and axes.
I don't. I can only like choose certain
spells to learn each level, so I have to pick and choose.
Yeah, I can only pick and choose so, but yeah, I don't have
tongues. I also do not have tongues, so
it sounds like I'm speaking unless somebody else has
primordial. Assuming that's what he speaks,
we all have to pop out and talk at the same time and ideally
spread out right? And maybe get on the lava so we
don't burn. Yeah, like get to whatever else
is still above the lava and just try to maintain a distance
unless we need to run up on him or get him to come to us.
Right. But yeah, let's try getting him
high 1st and if that doesn't work, I guess we'll beat him
down. We'll hope.
All right, we coordinated Lee pop out and start trying to
speak to him and his native languages, which I guess we just
all start blathering. What's the 1st?
Nation natively, I guess I'll pop out first and I will yell
out a greeting and Goblin in hopes that he knows what that
is. And if he does, and I'll try
Goblin first. And then if I don't get a
coherent response back, I would try Warvish next.
And I mean, I guess I could try Common, but I doubt he knows
common. I could be wrong, I could be
wrong, but yeah, I'm going to pop out first.
I'm leaving the baby in the bucket.
Rocket with the cricket babysitters.
I'm not taking the baby out here.
I do have Bob with me. Yeah, right.
Bob is just going to go through this peril with me.
I got to pop out. Decisions.
Yeah. She's getting good.
I'm getting better at this, taking care of a baby a long way
from football, slamming my baby into a dog.
But I'm going to pop out and turn towards the creature up on
the structure that we're at and it just kind of like wave real
friendly, like a big grin on my face and call out in goblin just
like hello there. There is no response and you see
the creature breaking off another chunk off of its off of
its back as if it were a dry twig a a large stone almost and
just crushes it again and then tosses this one in the lava and
you see kind of bubbling in the lava this form that's look looks
similar in make to him but a lot smaller basically.
Oh, so he's making mini me. That's cool.
Bubbling up.
And he does. Yeah, he does not respond.
So I'm going to start walking away from the pocket rock, OK.
And when we're looking here, it's.
Landing on that spot right there, it looks like that spot.
That spot. Which spot?
Let's say right there. All right, a dangerous question.
But yeah, so I wanted to just clarify.
So all the stuff that we can see on the map, what's clearly lava
is lava. And then the structures near the
edges of the map in the very few things in the middle, like the
anvil in those pieces of wall are places that we can stand on.
Or are there other things that maybe we don't see?
I would say what you see is the map currently.
So those are the areas you have to stand on.
And yeah, you're still within 10 feet of the lava, but you do
have the resistance. So you still they would only
take 2 instead of I'm just having the dice instead of
doubling the dice is how I'm having the damage.
So 10 damage while you're standing there, your feet are
starting to crispify I'm. I'm I'm scorching.
So wait, did you say 10 damage? Correct.
Yeah, we we had said try to move to the lava since we have a
water walking and that would be harmless.
Yeah, if that was the area you're poofing out in, but.
Yeah, that's the area I'm guessing I would poof out in.
But yeah, I would wave to him and then I would slowly start
making my way, like not running, but like walking quickly without
trying to look like I'm freaking out about the heat.
And then like as I call out and goblin and I get nothing back,
I'm going to say something else and dwarfish.
And then kind of like through my smile, like through my teeth,
I'm going to try to whisper down to Bob.
Like Bob, any ideas would be great.
And I just keep waving like, yeah, hey, neighbour.
And Bob's like you could talk to him like a normal person.
He knows Common, as far as I know, He's oh.
My God. Strange fucking being.
I'm just just out here being an idiot and I'm like, oh, oh,
shit. And then I actually call out and
I just say hey. Neighbour.
Really. Like.
You catch you seem to catch his attention at that, I would say
as you get to the lava and are somehow I still don't understand
how that spill makes it necessarily on undamaging
because like for the rules, like if you're within so many feet,
that's where that that was coming from.
So I was kind of keeping just so you understand, basically the
magma was heating up the stone that you were standing on and
the spell doesn't affect that. So that's why it was happening.
Because yeah, although the hot rock hurts, hot metal hurts, but
standing on lava is water. Because of the spell.
Yeah, exactly. Logic.
Yeah, anyways, so you caught his attention with that and he goes.
Oh. What up dude?
It's a beautiful day for a stroll.
What are you up to? Oh well, I'm here to.
I've got to surf some waves and, you know, cleanse this chamber.
You have to cleanse this chamber, but it's already so
bright and vibrant, like I'm keeping a smile the whole time,
like customer service smile. So very charming.
Looks around and he goes, yeah, totally did.
Well, I'm about to surf some mega waves.
You better watch out. Before you surf, you surf those
mega waves. I have a question for you, Do
you partake in the MSG? And he his, he was kind of like,
especially after his tone, you realized.
And the way he, he's his candor is so far, you realize that some
of his movements were lackadaisical as opposed to
being aggressive as they seemed before.
And now he's like he, he stops all of those like kind of like
what looks like slow movements and as rigid as stone as he
looks. And then his head just turns in
one solid motion and stares at you directly.
I maintain the smile just the whole time.
Just keep smiling. Because how much we talking
about? He's pretty.
Small. And I kind of like look him up
and down and I'm like, yeah, I guess to you, I kind of am
small, so I might not have enough to make you happy.
But I pull in my bag and I pull out a silk scarf and I unwrap it
and I have a 1 LB brick of MSG. And I kind of just like hold it
up. And at this point, I'm going to
take a couple steps towards him and be like, is this enough?
I'm going to tap. For you I'm.
Going. To tap my torque I'm going to be
like hey guys does someone have a spell that can like multiply
that brick you? Know what about?
Enlarge. Yeah, I don't have those.
Come on, where's Jesus? Enlarge Enlarge the.
I have the enlarge spell. You do we enlarge the the the
dynamite. That's a good idea.
So. OK.
So yeah, as I hold this out and I'm going to say, is this enough
for you? I'm also going to kind of like
gesture like ATV showgirl and wave my hand and like maybe it
needs to be a little bit bigger and then it just gets bigger in
my hand, still holding it up like a tray.
How does how does that work necessarily for the spell too?
I know that it. Usually says the target size is
doubled. Yeah, in all dimensions and its
weight is multiplied by eight. Oh shit, I might not be able.
To hold it doubled. Oh.
Yeah, that's how. That's interesting.
Volume works, unfortunately. Yeah, so I'm gonna, while like
doing this, I'm still gonna try to like make my way to him.
It would be what, 8 lbs? Oh no, yeah, that's fine.
I can definitely carry that. But yeah, so I'm holding it up
and it gets bigger in my hand as I am slowly walking towards him.
And I'm like, what about this amount?
Would this be better? Totally bro, I take that off
your hands. I take a couple more steps
towards him and I'm like, be my guest.
I'd love for you to use this and to have a good time.
And I just take the tiniest little bit with my pinky and
just like right there. And I'm like, that's all I need.
I need to make a thing for that. Actually, I've only ever, that's
amazing. I've only ever pinned it as like
an effect that happens. So I think you have to roll.
Yeah, don't I have to roll to see how much it affects me?
Or there it is, you've got you immediately get plus 10 to
movement speed. I found it now in the pins going
to say if a matter might know it best, but then you need to also
roll me. Oh you.
You would also have disadvantage on Wisdom, Wisdom and
Intelligence checks currently. Not doing smart stuff right now
so it's fine. A constant Constitution saving
throw. I'm trying to find it here but
it doesn't say yeah let's do a Constitution saving throw. 16.
OK. So you have not you've not
slowly become addicted like Vamira.
I am becoming. Addicted not not currently it
is. It is not affecting you
currently it it it. Congratulations.
I do do it very infrequently, like I like it, but yeah, I have
a baby, guys. Anyhow, so Yep, that plus 10 to
movement speed. Just try to keep track of it
somehow in the disadvantage. But anyways, you are holding out
the the brick and he he reaches down just like his finger and
his thumb, which are the size of you, and just ever so gently
picks up the the whole thing. And you you hear a snorting
sound as the whole thing goes in isn't in what you assume is his
nose and a sizzling sound to follow.
And then a sigh. Oh, but yeah.
Oh, I'm going to have to take a shit.
That was good. And I and I just kind of like
smile up at him and I'm like, I am glad to hear it.
That stuff is good. And I'm kind of like sitting
there like, yeah, that is good and maybe a little bit jittery.
He, he seems more relaxed than he was actually weirdly with the
intake of the MSG having almost the opposite effect of viewers
and and he just is like, Oh yeah, well, I'm going to have to
after I, after I pinch one off here, I'm going to have to serve
a wave. I would love to watch that.
Is there a safe place to watch you surf in here?
Oh God, so glad you clarified. I thought you were talking about
me. You're taking a shit.
You wanted to watch. Well, and he just kind of looks
around. He goes.
Not really. Like I said, he had to cleanse
the space. Yeah, it's gonna really need it
after I take a big deuce. What a dude.
So when you mean cleanse the space, you're you're just gonna
clear it. Yeah, it's gonna, it's gonna
melt everything away. He's going to melt everything
away. OK, So like at this point, I'd
say after I've had this hit of MSG, my mind is just racing and
I'm like, man, we really need to get out of here.
But apparently there's not a way out of here.
And we have to take care of this.
This, this, this, this, this rock guy who who who likes
drugs, drugs. He likes drugs.
Should we get more drugs? Ask him.
Ask him how long. I ask him how long exactly the
wave will take. We could banish ourselves with
the pocket rocket. We do need to leave though.
OK, So what if I held the pocket rocket?
What if I me personally held the Pocketronic blah blah blah blah
pocket rocket and banished myself while holding it?
A minute. Later and the lava into the same
place, but I would go. To my original plane of
existence, which my original plane of existence isn't Hell,
is it? It's where it's it's Taurus.
It's the Earth's surface. Hell is in tariff, it is still
the same so that's why I was talking about some of the planes
of existence before. You are still technically in the
material plane by being on tariff.
Is that is Wisteria, who's from the Fay Wild?
The yeah it. Don't have any sort of planar
travel. We can also turn ourselves into
gas if possible, though these are all temporary solutions.
We may just need to use the the the gate that we had last time
and go to a different plane or a different level.
The gate that we had last time. In the last.
That we were trying to solve. So Griselda had some sort of
dice thing that was basically a teleported to different levels
of hell if you sold them like a Rubik's Cube.
Oh yeah, the dodecahedron. We have several unlocked so we
could just Nope. And we have two.
We have. 2 unlocked. Yeah, I think we should just
probably. Nope.
Yeah, I kind of say we should avoid this.
He seems like a pretty friendly guy.
Unless you can ask him of a way out.
I'm so sorry that Baltazar Faust currently holds the
tridecahedron. Oh, and he doesn't exist right
now. God.
Damn. It.
So do we know that the dodecahedron exists or are we
just having like fucking mini strokes right now?
Mini strokes you guys, all noses are.
Bleeding. I'm just standing in front of
this guy. Like tweaking, like, man, you're
gonna go surfing. That would be great to watch.
Where can I watch safely? Is there a place that we can
leave so that you can so that you can secure this place in in
peace and without too much pressure of being watched by an
avid audience? And then the note my nose just
starts bleeding. And he just, he just leads back
and he is, that was a lot to take in, bro.
You're going to have to give me a second safe place, right?
See, I've got this arrangement with Kai Shen that I clear up
his civilizations after he's done with them and all.
But like, I don't know that I guess.
I mean, we, we, we just did this, but like exchange, I
thought that was a gift. Are you, are you trying to ask
me now if, if I'd give you something in exchange?
You might have to become one of my servants for a bit.
Servants. For and I knew it.
And I and I look at him and. I get a bit.
Well, right now there's only one of us out here.
I ask very quietly into the torque.
I'm like Franklin, what was this guy's intelligence?
I didn't get that information, but based on his accent, the way
he's speaking and here the fact that he's a math addict, I'm
going to say pretty low. OK.
I mean, total guess, but 2 + 2 you know?
Yeah, where is? Where did it go?
Because I was just thinking about Bob because I was like, if
I have to become a servant, I don't know what that entails.
But if that entails not burning alive, maybe that was a way out,
especially if there isn't an easy way out right now.
But I was just. It's going to break your brain
for a bit, but I'm going to talk a little on the higher levels
here and just entail you taking a level in Warlock.
Your other nose nostril bleeds your next level.
So my next level, I would just promise it to him.
As warlock you get to choose, you know some of the powers you
get from me but like you know, stay in touch bro.
You help me, I help you. I was like ask.
Him what he wants. I made a really bad deal once.
So what exactly do you want out of this relationship?
You want me to stay in touch, but is is that it?
Am I just supposed to go sightseeing and send you
postcards? Yeah, so it sounds great, man.
I mean like occasionally some, you know, some, some crystals
would be nice, but that's about all I'm asking.
Some crystals? That sounds doable.
What kind of crystal? What kind of crystal should I
look out for? And you see his like blazing
eyes just get large and he's like just about any.
That's just great. Well, I don't, I don't know how
or why, but it's got to do something with the resin, the
alternate resonance, the multiverse.
So when he says Crystal, does he?
Mean like. Does he mean like crystal
crystal or does he mean just like precious gems, Rocks, No.
No, totally, just all the all crystals or crystalline
structures. So like, you know some of that
shiny metal stuff you got on you that's technically a crystal if
you didn't know bro. I did not know that.
That's actually really cool. And then I was like, wait, wait,
so that qualifies as a crystal. And then I dig through my bag
and and I reach in and I pull out the biggest Ruby that I have
and I was like, does this is a crystal?
Yeah, yeah, man, that's, that's some good shit right there.
And then I just reach up and I hand it to him.
I'm like here have one. Yeah, that's thank you.
And he daintily still picks it up with a, you know, a finger
and a thumb. And this time he kind of holds
it, holds it down towards the magma to, like, look at the
light coming off of it through the stone and pretty good
quality. And then he just chomps on it
like it's rock candy. Nom.
Nom nom.
And I'm like, wow, that is impressive.
I kind of whisper into the torque again, OK, I'm like, OK,
guys, what do I do? Do I promise to be a warlock?
I just have to give him rocks. I mean, that's totally up to
you. Just make sure you read the
contract. Tell him.
I tell him we have a big crystal as well that I'm interested in
selling. If he has anything to trade
specifically I'm looking for living skin or like a like a
metallic skin of some sort. I don't know what he is, but.
How about or? Whatever he is.
How about, how about we'll trade him for like the exit?
That's true, yeah. That's a better.
Choice let's. Give Franklin less toys.
There are more. Toys, I call up.
What's his name again? More.
Damage. OO grandma O grandma.
Moch with an Yeah, There you go, you got it.
Did he? We didn't introduce ourselves.
Well, I have a question. What's the If you promise him
that you'll be one of his like disciples in the warlock level,
he's just going to not hit us with a wave or not use the wave
or. Yeah.
Is he going to let us get out of here?
What's what's what's what are what exactly are you slash we
getting? I'll say that end of the torque,
but a nasally tap tone. I call up, I call up to him and
also how big is he? Because like, I'm standing over
here and I'm like. You're standing on the the the
magma, right? And I'm.
Standing on the magma. You you see what you assume are
his hips sticking out of the magma and he still stands at 40
feet. Above the line.
Fuck. That 40 feet, 40 feet, I'm 4
feet. Tall.
I'm 4 feet. Tall. 10 times bigger than you,
basically. Oh OK, so yeah, so it looks like
an Ant is handing a freaking toddler tiny pebbles off the
ground. But I, so I turned to him and
I'm just like, it is this conversation is absolutely
lovely. I'm glad to have met you.
And I introduced myself and I, I introduced myself as Ashlyn Roy.
And I do like a very formal bow. And I'm like, so if I am to take
up a patron, if I'm to take you up as a patron, would that
entail me to a way out of here so that I may continue sending
you rocks and beautiful sights? And he leans down, and you feel
a particular blast of heat off of him.
I would say I'm probably so sweaty, very sweaty at this
point. No blood just running out of my
nostrils, just still grinning up at him with my customer service
smile and a little bit of a twitch.
Even with the Ring of Fire resistance, right, you, you or
the necklace of fire resistance. I apologize you you're sweating
profusely like you said, no damage from him getting as close
as he's getting it. He's, he's still holding,
holding off a bit in distance, but he's leaned in enough.
And you can tell for some reason that the especially with some of
your practices that the fire that he's letting off currently
as almost of a bit of a plume around himself is magical in
nature. And he leans down and he goes,
well, we can't like, I shouldn't know about this right yet.
You got to let me get off of his his place.
And then, well, I, I can promise you that I can find a way for
you to survive the wave, but you're not going to like it.
I'm not going to like it. I think surviving is quite
likeable, I say with a little bit of a chuckle.
And I was like kind of rubbing the blood off my face.
There you go. Well, in that case, I guess, I
mean, if you're willing and able, I'm going to have to
hygiene a bit of an orifice of mine to keep it.
I knew it. I knew it and I I just.
Look. Up at him and I am, I think at
this point with the like drugs in my system, the strokes in my
brain and the blood running down my face, I'm like.
That sounds fine, but wait. I left something behind and I
was like, I'll be right back. I'll only do it if I'm staying
in the pocket rocket and someone else takes the pocket rocket in
there, I mean. We've already been through
sewers, right? Yeah, we've been through food.
Shoes. I was inside of another
creature's armor, using my entire body to Jack him off.
I was like, I think I can handle this.
So I was like, this sounds absolutely fine.
And I was like, but wait, I forgot something.
I've got to go grab it before we carry on with our event.
And I run back over here and I pick up the pocket rocket.
Ash that's unfazed. We ever need someone to do some
some shit. It's Ash.
So we're going to survive burning alive.
I will be trapped in an orifice for a little bit that that is
fine. And if he doesn't want me to
tell the boss man that he now has a new patron, that's fine
either cuz I don't like this boss man, he could suck a Dick.
So I. Pick up the pocket rocket and
I'm gonna put it inside an inner pocket, like against my body and
not in my backpack. I'm gonna keep it nice and
secure. I'm still gonna hold on to Bob.
Either putting us inside an orifice inside an orifice.
I'm just saying. You guys are getting stuffed
down a bra. Sorry, I'll tap the thing.
Hey, if he doesn't like his boss, see if he knows any dirt
on him or how to get to Ober. I don't know.
How to avoid Ober? I don't know.
Were you relaying all of that or were you like letting them
listen in over the torque? I'm kissing Ash.
Yeah, I was just having the torque kind of like active
because I wanted everybody's input.
But I'm like, this seems like a really easy way to not die.
Like, yeah, it might be gross. Yeah, it might be weird, but
hey, I'm going to live. Yeah, I get it.
You do it actually. But yeah, let's let's live.
And if one of us just has to have like a little ride in an
orifice, everybody else stay in the pocket rocket.
Somebody feed my baby. So just a little ride in an
orifice, no big deal. But yeah, I would also be like
talking into the pocket rocket as or into the torque as I ran
over like, OK guys, I'm going to carry you with me and then I'm
going to think I'm going to take a ride in a butt hole and then
we're going to be safe. Just gonna nod.
I'm gonna take the scarf that
had the MSG on it and kind of wrap it around my face and tie
it in a knot cuz I'm just imagining I'm gonna be somewhere
stinky. It's probably got a little more
dust on it from the MSG. You'd have to roll a
Constitution saving throw. With the pocket rocket safely
secured in my bra, I put on the scarf of a machine.
You said a saving throw, right? Well, they're getting worse 9.
Yes, you are now addicted. I'm addicted and I just gave it
all away. You hurriedly start looking
around for Vomita, who you notice every now and again,
usually partaking. I'm not a man in a pocket
rocket. Yeah.
So yeah, you guys got to listen to this whole conversation of
him being chill and relaxed and me just being like, yeah, yeah,
let's do this. I'm going to fucking ride up at
home. We're going to live.
Yeah. And I run over to him.
And as I was running over to him, I would say that I'm
digging in my bag again and I'm just getting out another, like,
precious gem. It doesn't matter which one.
Whatever one I can find. That seems like the biggest.
And I'm going to like put my bag back on and hold it up to him.
And I was like, so I do have a question.
So you don't like that? What was his name?
I should I should. You don't like I should?
I mean, like, we can get along, but like, you know, just like,
not Bros. And I'm just like, Yep, Yep, got
it, got it. Not bras.
And I'm not going to speak of this to him.
And you're not going to speak of this to him, right?
Right. This is for us.
And I say this while I'm waving the rock, the rock, the precious
gem around in my hand. He's looking at it and he goes
no, like it's what we just talked about.
Also I just want to point out when you went and ran back I
didn't realize you left the pocket rocket there either.
But when you're on the stone again, I rolled another tent
damage. So somebody gave me temporary
nip points the last time we were on.
Oh nice. Yeah.
So those are just getting wasted right now, but that's totally.
Fine, used, utilized, not wasted.
It's fine anyways. So yeah, that was another for a
total of 20 you've already taken just by staying on some rocks.
Anyways, you you're waving it around and he goes, yeah, it's
like he's not going to know. But, well, I mean, unless you
guys make it a big deal, which I mean, my plan was is you're
going to put you back here. And actually, you know what?
He just seems to like his eyes kind of go out of focus while he
was talking before he kind of focused again back in these like
blaming coals of eyes that he has.
And he looks down at you and he says if you could fuck his day
up for me after I leave, that'd be great.
That is something I would very much like to do.
And I kind of just hold this precious gem up to him as like,
let's let's seal this deal. I'm going to become your wait.
He's my patron and I would become his fangirl.
I don't know. Rupee.
Starting route to 3400. Jerry's Hwy.
He's a he's your patron and and your is.
Yeah, I don't know. Artist.
You're his warlock, Yes, that's the.
Yeah, I'm going to become his warlock and I hand him this gem
as if. As in sealing the deal.
Like, yes, I would very much like to fuck that guy's day up.
And I will be your warlock, and I will send you rocks and
postcards from beautiful sites. OK agreed.
That's all I pretty much need. I'm doing all that right and
shit, unless it's in a stone tablet.
Who has time for that? And he just like reaches down
his pinky finger as if he's like shake.
He's so safe. And I reach out and I shake his
pinky finger with with my incredibly minuscule hand.
It's just like I'm shaking a whole log.
Probably takes like two of your hands to actually for him to
realize you're actually holding. Yeah, I would say I would like
grab the pinky and then try to grab it with the other hand and
then like shake it and then put the the the the gem that is
large for me but small for him into his palm.
And he takes it on the tip of another finger that he kind of
laying down for you. And he he's holding his hand
still down. And he goes.
Well, Are you ready now or? I'm ready.
Let's do it now while I'm still feeling the juice.
Right. And he just like hold on, says
to the leaving his hand in the fully extended so that you're
holding onto his pinky or shaking the gem on his like ring
finger. I guess I crawl into his palm.
Is that what he wants? OK.
You crawl into his palm. You feel as you crawled into it
the and you see visibly the the stone hardening under you as
you're coming closer, as if he's pulling heat away from that area
intentionally to not harm you. So.
Oh. I see that.
I'm like, oh, that's so courteous.
Thank you. And then he is like do unto a
neighbor as they say right? And he just picks you up to his
mouth and then he rooves his ring finger towards the gem and
puts it in between 2 teeth that are, you know, larger than you.
And he just you, you just see him holding it there and then
toss his head back and swallow it in a in a single single gulp.
And he goes, well, do you want to close your eyes or?
I'm just like Yep and I kinda like Bob still attached to my
belt, pick him up and hug him to my chest and then I close my
eyes and I just hold still. You close your eyes and you feel
warmth encapsulating you as you slowly become enveloped in some
sort of space. You can feel only knowing too
because the snap, crackling and popping of lava and magma that's
around on some of the areas sort of quiet.
And you can feel Bob in your arms, wriggling a little bit in
his skull form to try and get a better look of where and what's
going on, just excitedly. And you just hear him going.
I tried to talk room. I'm like, have you never?
Have you never done this before? Before you feel yourself settle
down outside of the palm, you can feel yourself like off of
the off of wherever you were like you.
You probably slid down into a on another hand or something like
that to to get wherever you're at now.
And he just goes. It's just sorry, Oka mock a
voice, a mistress. That's just not, not what I was
expecting. Where we would go?
You know, I was a little surprised too.
My eyes are still closed. I I, my eyes are just closed and
I am just like basking in the warmth, still hugging Bob to my
chest. Well, you, you probably want to
keep your eyes closed for a little while here.
And you can feel a rumbling all around you, as if the the space
that you're in, wherever it is with your eyes closed, is
resonating with Ogrimach's voice.
And he just says, hold on, little dude.
Bride just bra. I just squeezed Bobby the diner.
And some time goes by, quite some time, probably before you
hear him, you know, and feel a jostling more or less, I guess.
And it's probably you're unsure exactly how much time has
passed, but it had to, it felt like quite a lot before He's
like, all right, I'm you ready to go again.
And he's It explains, too, that the chambers cleared.
Yes, I'm ready whenever you are. All right.
And you feel like a a slight nudging against you actually.
Uh oh. We'll do half damage for this
too. We'll roll for it too.
To see. We'll call it this.
That's a 23 to hit. Oh, that is the last of my
temporary hit points. No, no, two hit two.
Hit. Oh, hit.
Oh yeah, that definitely hits. No plus 14.
Oh my God. And that's thirty, I said.
Half. So that's what was.
It it'd be 16. Yeah, 1616 damage.
OK. As you feel yourself almost
bowled over by a slight nudge and he goes sorry.
So I feel myself getting balled over by a slight nudge and my
eyes still closed, I am still very much trying to hug Bob to
my chest. And I would say that like the
whole time in there, I was just like kind of as curled up, as
small and as tightly as I could be.
OK, you want to hop on little dude?
He says hop on and I'm like, Bob, can I open my eyes?
He's like, no, no, no, mistress, you definitely don't want to
open your eyes yet. Just, you know, take a slight
step forward, raise your hand out and other hand out in front
of you. Feel the the the pinky finger
that's extended and. That's what I do.
I take a step forward and I'm reaching one hand out and I'm
holding Bob to my chest with the other arm and I am blindly
searching for the pinky. And you, you get on top of what
you can only assume would be the pinky because it's just as large
as you, if not larger. And you're, you're able to
basically sit on it comfortably and you feel it moving only by
the rush of air that comes whisking your hair by as your
eyes are closed. And he goes.
He can open your eyes, little dude now.
So I slowly open my. Eyes and you see him holding you
out right in front of his face and he kind of like sniffs.
Do I smell myself? You smell yourself, and oddly
enough. You smell just.
Like the fresh pressed ground after.
A rain. Interesting.
So to you it smells good currently.
OK, not horrible. Not.
Horrible. Good, good and.
I look at him and then I look around at myself and our
surroundings and everything's not in.
Fire like the screen portrays. Still currently you see that
most of the the structures are gone.
I'm just going to do this, see if this will if this will pan
out for me or not, if I have to have to move some some things
around or not, but. Do you see or did the screen go
black? My screen went black but let me
zoom out. Black.
Do I zoom out? Zoom.
All the way in. Oh my God.
If there's people here, we could do it.
Again, there's no people. There's no people so.
We've discovered the infinite money glitch, no?
No damn. Trying to I need to go back to
the other map is all and just grab.
All the tokens from there is what I should have done in the
first place, don't mind me. What that was true though, I'd
just be like, we take several. Decades to just re rent some
repeat so and. What would we do?
With all that money. Hey.
There's this thing. Oh, this place.
Yeah, he did say there are Currently no.
Buildings around us there's. Yeah, there's no buildings.
So this. So we're just looking at like a
stone rib floor. Cliff face with two doors.
One to the South. One to the north.
Both. Are metal there anything?
Distinguishing about either of the doors.
Are they both? Identical or they one of which
you would known. Some of you, anyhow.
To have gone through and gotten. To the church.
You only recognize it because a bit of the bridge here it's it's
abutment still stands. It's the church is to the north.
And then to the. This door you guys have never
entered, but it was. You do.
Kind of piece the puzzle together and realize that that
had to have been right next to the greedy.
Goblin but you never noticed? And then?
As you're kind of surface. Moving around on this outcrop,
you notice even smaller door, even farther to the South.
That's also never been through. Also, never been through and you
can only. Realize.
May have been inside the greedy goblin and you never noticed It
may be hidden under the steps. I owned that.
Did we leave? A dire cricket.
Behind in the. Greedy goblin.
Or is this this stuff not here? Yeah, this stuff is.
Not here, the greedy goblin doesn't.
Exist. It is.
It has been melted away at this point to Yeah, I was going to
say that I think that I see two of Amiras.
That's a problem. I think those are the quest
doors. I deleted blood.
Wait, you end up in the void out of the?
Void No Get out of the. Door.
Oh, oh, sorry. I didn't realize that was the
door. I thought those.
Were stairs oh I just falling into nothing as.
Hell. I never put a wall there.
That's not it. OK, So what?
Was in the church was anything. Good in the church?
Do we have any reason to go to the church?
There was a bunch of cultists there for that.
Was. That was when we got.
Into the issue. Of like.
Having to fight them because we were not able to.
Like Pledge? Allegiance to Kai Shen or not?
All of us at least. Who the flag pledge allegiance?
To go and let's. Go through the South door.
There's I think Southern Door is there, yeah.
I want to go through the little. Door.
That was also my first instinct, but.
Mom is big, and so the big. Door would be better, but I'm OK
with the little boy. Oh yeah how?
How small is the little door? Because you said a.
Little door. Is.
Is only A5. Foot door where?
As opposed to the bigger doors which are closer to 10 foot.
Franklin would say, wait, hold on, there might be.
One more. Door because we were told by the
by the pimp goblin that Kaishen secret like lab entry base entry
was like back in the in the magma area.
So there may be one more or two. And.
You can feel the effects. Of.
I'm just going. To I'm just going to do this
real quick too. One second here just.
For a quick. Transition to because this is
what I meant to do. After I brought everything else
over but. Pace Nope, that works too, but
paste OK, so Ogramach sets you down Ash so you guys aren't.
All there, I know you guys are all kind of like looking around
and thinking so that we could have at least a visual on what's
going on. Sets Ash down on the outcrop of
rock better. That is here and goes.
My effects. Won't last long.
After that Wave cautions. The tensions are elsewhere,
probably while I've been cleaning the chamber.
Yeah, is there anything you need to?
Know before I go. And at this point too, you guys
are probably in the pocket rocket and realize the pimp
preacher by this point especially has finally started
to like go up on his side and cough after being, you know,
possessed by Kai Shen. And like he's like real groggy
like if. It's if he's.
Hungover. So the the the pimp priest had
Kai Shen? Possessing him, was that a fun
experience? Yeah, prior to the the wave that
was. Cleansing the space, Yeah.
And he was laughing at you guys, but the then he lapsed on the
ground and yeah, so it doesn't look like it was.
Pleasant, no. OK, so is there anything else
that we? Want to ask him?
I asked him. I'm like, how do I communicate
with you once I'm out and about, once you take that level?
Little dude, you can just do it, you know?
Well radio. Good point.
No. I.
I don't even know what that. Is, but you won't like a.
Direct Line I usually. Reserve that from a higher ups
but like I'll contact. You, you know.
And he waves to like one of the gargoyles that he actually, he
actually belches and a gargoyle comes out and he's like, well,
these. Guys, Will.
They'll. They'll be in touch.
Oh, OK. Well, OK then yeah, if you can
get a hold of. Me and then I can talk to you.
Then that'll work out. And I kind of just like, give
the little gargoyle a salute. I would say I probably feel
groggy. Because I don't know how long
that took. I don't know if he was real
quick about it or real slow about it, but like the effects
of the MSG, are they still there?
You guys have all at this point experienced a long rest I would
say. That's how long it was.
But took a catnap inside of some guy's gut.
Yeah, it was. Like 11 hours and we'll say.
That is a. Hell of a time to serve.
Yeah. Hey man, he was.
He was feeling it. And.
So you you definitely would have had.
You know the the bump that you took wear off for my I don't
know how you've been feeling out your bumps as of like portion
sizes and how much you've got left, but you would currently
be. At stage 1.
Dash of the addiction at a -. A constant -1 to intelligence
and wisdom. A constant -1 to intelligence
and wisdom. OK, OK.
Without. Having without with whenever
you're not on it, and. Again, every time.
You take it, the addiction increases.
Is there a way to monitor that in?
D&D Beyond or is should I just like?
Make a note of this. You can make an item that has
charges and. Then for each level of addiction
with like text like in MSG. You could probably put like.
Bunch of text for each level of addiction and then give it a
charge usage level based on total number of addiction levels
and then just keep. Yourself at.
Whatever charge of acts Yeah, because every time you still.
Take MSG. You have the chance of
increasing the addiction because it it it the the challenge
rating. Increases basically.
But to increase the addiction but I'll I.
Can figure something out but. Yeah, OK.
Yeah. Now I just put a note so that I
have it on my character sheet. Yeah, you know what you've been
doing for matter. Yeah.
I haven't come up with a good way to track that.
Shit, honestly, no worries. But yeah, so I'm like, all
right, if you can get a hold of me and then.
I'll be able to communicate with you.
That'll be all right. My next level is or my next.
I guess I don't know what we would call it in like this
experience because you wouldn't measure in levels, but yeah, my
next. Wave of improvement.
Is dedicated to you and I kind of like.
Feel. A little under the weather and
then I remember my. Scarf and I pick it up.
And I just rub it over my face and I'm breathing really deeply.
Get the. Bare minimum of.
It would probably require after getting.
The last of it. Out of every crevice there to
stave off. Speaking of which.
Go ahead and roll the Constitution.
Oh no, if you haven't done so today. 10A Little little.
Bit better, yeah, a little bit better than the 9.
That you had before. OK.
What would lesser restoration do?
Oh, now I. Figured I was muted.
Oops. Lesser creation.
Yeah, I was just muted the whole time.
Yeah, I was muted the whole time apparently.
I've been trying to talk and I was.
Like, why can't nobody hear me? Yeah, no, I was cast less
restoration on Ash and. It removed.
It removes. Blind choose a condition
blinded, deaf and paralyzed or poison.
This is narcotic, so I would it is not find that under poison.
It is not. No, it's not a.
Narcotic. No.
Greater Restoration. Was the one to remove.
Something like a curse or something like that, which is
what kind of an addiction would be in the disease or one
condition it. Ends a disease or a condition.
OK. So we need greater restoration.
Got it. You like likely to be like an.
Addiction or something? Like that you would.
Need greater restoration over lesser restoration?
You're right. Let's see.
Yeah, I think that's what we determined before it was talked
about at 1:00. Point to have an addiction
removed and it would be a disease and not a poison.
A poison would be remove going into your disease.
Yeah, you would need. To remove disease.
I have lay on. Hands now that's that's about
say that's. What Lester does removes.
A disease? Oh yeah.
I remove a disease with lesser. It's a condition or a.
Disease like my pick? OK.
I can heal you off. Yep, I'm going to heal the ash
flitch. I can I can do it to both to be
healed. Do you consent I.
Would consent. But they're still in the pocket
rocket right now. And we were talking because I
was like, how do I get a hold of you?
He said. One of my gargoyles will found
find you. So I'm guessing like the next
time I level up, a gargoyle is just going to appear and be
like, welcome to being a warlock.
Here is your handbook. Praise the lava monster he is.
Totally rad. Yeah.
Sounds about right. It makes me think.
Of like the book of how to. Be dead.
In Beetlejuice. Oh God.
So yeah, that. Okamach then basically would
turn to you and like elevator down through the the residual
lava or magma that's in the chamber that's just below like
before he doesn't he. Doesn't seem to like walk
downstairs or anything, he just like.
Just vanishes into the lava. Got it.
I call over the tour and I'm. Like, hey guys.
You should come out. We probably need to leave.
Is it? Is it tough for me to fight him?
There's nobody here. Carrot grumbling sound.
Come from Ezra's, from Ezra, from your.
Torque Mommy run off. Too already I.
Didn't go anywhere. Oh.
Hanging out with everybody. Else wherever they are, I don't
know, my map went weird but. Maybe I was never on this map, I
don't know. I see the map.
OK Ezra. Ezra pops out.
Think I'm here? Yeah, so I'm gonna also pop out
and then bonks. Ash with his.
Axe to cast lesser restoration. Do I feel the addiction leave
me? Yep.
It flows away. Along with your bladder if
you're holding any I will question.
Power of bunk. Compel you.
I feel, I feel the addiction. Leave me.
And I just like kind of turned to him and I'm like.
Wow. Thank you.
I feel a lot better. Want to go eat the pimp?
Eat. Could we eat him?
I can eat him. What?
No. Why did they start?
Eating people A. While ago.
Not all there was a. There was a side game.
It's just. The pimp.
It's nothing. Serious.
OK, so I do. I am having a hard time.
Remembering the pimp, I thought we he agreed to come with us.
Or was he like just a prisoner? Nope, he is.
He is now a full. Citizen with an NDA so we cannot
eat the print. Or the pimp.
Frank, the one that I was protecting.
Last time you. Lied to me you lied to.
Me, Franklin, How dare you? Also, did I lie to you?
You said. I could eat it.
During he ate his hand. 11 hours the.
Entire time, even if you guys were, I was going to circle back
around to see if anyone else inside the pocket rocket was
doing anything inside of that 11 hours besides snapping.
Yes, I have an order. I figured a wonderful rest
Sweet. Yeah, Ezra.
Ezra was. Screaming the whole time.
Let me find him, let me find him, Let me find, let me fight.
Phelan would be protecting this man.
To resolve that situation. It was night time.
For the current cycles. So he was completely ethereal
during that entire income time. The pimp, correct?
Damn it. No, I got to reread this.
He is a. Corporeal form at night.
So I had it backwards. So he.
Is not incorporeal. He's incorporeal during the day.
So at the beginning of this like conversation, likewise you guys
are coming back in. He would be no longer corporeal.
He would be ethereal. Then good thing I'm a fucking
elf. I'm a drow.
And I don't actually have to sleep, sleep for a long rest.
I just go into a transfer 4 hours.
So Ezra, what were you doing to for the what were you doing to
keep it in the Occupy for four? Hours.
I mean, there should be plenty of food.
And snacks in there. Yeah, there's a whole like big
ass thing in the back. That you could go play with.
There's a baby. Yes, I would hand you.
I would hand. You the child.
And, you know, and easel. It's a 2 headed.
Baby. Very adorable.
Yeah, I would hand you the two headed baby.
That would definitely keep you. For at least 4 hours you gave
him a pup to play with. You're not my pup, but.
You're still cute. I would say it's probably and
you. Know and Ethel's probably at the
point where. They're like crawling around and
maybe even trying to walk now. Yeah, yeah.
So there you go. Like help?
Help teach them how to walk, walk.
And that's what Ezra would have. Done for that four hours also.
By the way, it is 1/2. Changeling so it would still
have the ability to change its form.
Would it turn like? Would it turn into a wolf like
me? I was.
Going to say it would probably imitate any humanoid.
Around it so as long as it had two arms 2 legs and for him one
head and then the other head would probably just say as the
what is it water elemental or air elemental No he's.
He he's the demigod race. Oh yeah, as mirror.
That's right, yeah. If we ever get a.
Chance to cut that head off. We're going to.
Ezra. Now Ezra has.
If you say, Josh, if you say. It turned into a a wolf puppy.
Ezra is going to attempt to adopt it.
I would say if at any point you transformed.
In front of it, then yeah, I would.
Definitely have tried to imitate your shape.
I don't know how well it did, but it tried.
I will find out. You want to roll a flat
performance. For me, Ash.
Without your. Modifier do it.
Do it. Roll, please.
Oh, not bad, not bad. 16. Jeez, yes.
So yeah. But you're describing pretty
much. Happens and there's a head
attached to the wolf's head. It basically looks like off the
side of it kind of look like like a, like a, a.
Stool almost, just like a little.
Wolf body. And then there's.
Just this extra head, just whatever you sell.
Baby Ezra thinks it's adorable. He'll spend the 1st.
Hour 2. At no first two hours showing
how to walk to spend the next hour cleaning it like a dog and
then the last hour taking a nap with it.
All right, but yeah, I'm going to call into the torque and be
like, all right, guys, we you. Can come out here, everything
is, I guess, as good as it can be.
Is it? I will.
Papa. Vamira or Mama just.
Eating and then prospectively getting drunk and falling asleep
and kissing for that period sounds about right.
'Cause I already know Phelan. Was keeping.
The. Yep, temperature away.
And lunchtime. Franklin is planning.
What is? Franklin Planning.
Franklin gets the. Amethyst or the, not the.
Amethyst the God, what's it called?
The the stone that the pocket rocket is made out of.
Oh, the adamantine. The adamantine, yeah, and is.
Going to request. Bildreth.
To or whoever Bildreth points him to, to construct a a
skeleton of an adamantine of adamantine, and he just looks at
you, looks at the barrel of. Adamantine.
And he's. Yeah.
And then he's like, do you have like Forge set up?
No, that's what I told you to bring.
Well, that did tell. You to bring.
I said you got to bring stuff because you're going to be there
in a while. You got to build.
Yeah, well, it's going to take a while.
Yeah. No, no.
Problem I mean. Well, OK, as long as you're
understanding. Of that, the other challenge I
have is I'm not real sure if I should forge in here.
I understand we have a homeostasis.
To. To maintain one of the dire
crickets made it clear, yeah. It's a good point, all right.
Well, let me consider all that. If.
You, I don't know if it takes forging because it's stone, but
you take this and then we'll go from there.
Yep. I well, I can.
Certainly hold on to it until. We figure out and I'll try to
set up the forge as I know best until we can somehow.
Yeah, not fuck up the air that we breathe.
Yeah, that's a good choice. Do you know?
Anything about automatons? I've got one I don't.
I think there's one of them. With us that I think his name is
hello what it is for unfortunate mother name.
I think it was something like Dick weed or something.
Anyways, he he knows how to, you know, make movable things that.
Automatons, I think you called them.
They. Usually require a power.
Source. And he hasn't.
Gotten past the point. Where it it's, you know,
attached to them and easily carryable, I don't think.
Good point. OK, well.
Worth of thought. I'll go talk to that guy later.
Is that your next thing that you're doing with the next?
Bit of your time. OK.
So then you go up to. You're like, hey, Dick weed.
And he's like, it's actually, it's, it's weed of the Dick.
You just call me weed. Weed of the Dick.
Wow, that is very poetic. You said he is an automaton.
No, he's a. He's another goblin.
I'm another. Goblin.
I have an automaton. That I was hoping.
That you could take a look at. Oh well, I I can.
Definitely use my eyes, still so cool.
It is highly dangerous and contained in a sphere of some
sort of bad thing. OK.
Don't know what sort of safety. Precautions we should take
because. It will probably try to kill
everyone so. Isn't, is it not?
Incapacitated it is. Here I'll take.
Out the ball. Red and white with a circle in
the. Middle.
But with a with a lightning bolt in the center to make it
different. He's looking at it and he.
Goes. Oh, I think I've seen Kai Shen
use. Those and a.
Couple other adventurers that he's given them to.
Yeah, I got it from Kai Shen. OK, but like what's in it?
Oh, the ball. Not the that's the guy inside.
What was the thing I roll a history check.
You don't have to. It's a.
It's a flux. Flux Blast Seeker is what it's
called. If you want to look it up, it's
a Flux Blast seeker. I think it is.
Memory. Isn't always my best.
Oh, OK. So I was right.
Yeah. Here let me post it.
Oh, OK. Flux and then blast seeker.
It's just I couldn't I? Didn't have the right
combination of words ahead of us.
Two different things. Josh, while frankly said that
I'm going to. Attempt to I want to use.
I rolled a performance to. Make it look like I'm trying.
To teach the little baby how to hunt.
And then I rolled to stealthily go and try to get a snacky
snacks with the pup with me from the bimp.
I rolled. I rolled in that one for
performance and I rolled a 28 per steel.
Beautiful. Tell me how it goes, Josh.
Back. Use.
Your performance was for. Remind me trying.
To teach, basically make it look like I'm.
Teaching the little pup, hey, this is how you hunt.
Yeah, OK. But in reality, everybody, in
reality, we're stealthing over to get us a bite.
Of the Cup. As you Oh my God, that's fully.
Stealth. Don't without.
Genora wrong character. Actually, sorry Phelan, could
you roll? Me a Sorry.
I I I forgot to ask for this too?
A perception check? I'm looking at the flex blast
here. So great sneak.
Sneak. Sneak, sneak, sneak.
Sneak, sneak. 21 job perception, yeah.
So you. You do.
Successfully you're you kind of look.
Over at as you're as you're probably like meditating.
Right. Yeah, you're.
Having. The pimp preacher in his.
Collapsed form in front of. You and you have your eyes
completely closed. But you look off.
In the direction where where Ezra was.
And you're like, wait, where did he go?
And you look. Back the other way and you look
back the other way and he's directly behind you at the time
that he looks at you though and realizes that there's a sandwich
on the counter behind him and decides to eat that and said you
will not. Get this fucking pimp.
We're projecting pimps now, it's fine.
Hey bro, failing. Just appeared into.
Nothingness. From.
Nothingness to just a dog, an oversized puppy excited to eat a
pimp. Now there's two excited puppies
trying to eat the. Pimp.
Yeah, now there's a. Much smaller.
Pup very awkwardly. That one she can handle.
Yeah, that. Looks like the thing for the.
Flask Flux blast seeker. I just I did.
Have it. I had it as flux blast and then
seeker instead of flux blast. Anyways.
So, yeah, and. He, he, he.
Do you let it out of the ball, I guess.
Absolutely not. Nope.
That sounds like a dangerous thing to do without salting and
provision like for thought. I'm just handing it to a skilled
expert with instructions to think of how to turn it off.
And OK, so from out here. That was.
That was the request and he goes well, simplest.
Thing I can think of would be. And he just kind of hold, he
kind of. Like.
Looks at the ball, kind of stirs his chin and looks up and then
goes. Is bringing it forth so that I
can. Examine it more, but with just
the information. Information that.
I have I, I. We could probably set up some
sort of ritual that if it came out that, yeah, like a magic
circle. Yeah, we could do.
That. We I will consider.
This. You also consider I don't want
to pick up the entire diet plus I've.
Got some? Harvesting to do OK.
I'll do that. Remember, it's weed.
Weed, Mr. Weed. Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Weed.
We're going to do great things together.
All right. So Yep, 11 hours has passed as.
She's telling you guys that you guys have made it out of the
orifice. Then Ogremach has gone.
You're standing. She is standing there.
I don't. Know if you're going into the
pocket Rocket Ash? Or if everyone's coming out, I.
Would say I'm not. Going in, I'm just going to
hold. Out the pocket rocket and let.
Everybody out, you would have gotten the long rest as well
inside of the. Orifice, OK, that's.
Great. Yeah, a nice.
Long rest inside a lower intestine, Ash.
If you come in. This is probably what you're
saying right now. Oh.
With an extra.
Head going on with the extra head.
I would. I would say that, yeah, I go.
In to get the baby. And I'm just like, oh look.
You're a little puppy and I pick it up.
It it would probably bark at you with the one head and the.
Other head would just go mother. Yes, baby, mommy's back and I.
You guys are hungry, aren't you? As you realize that it's the
first word that either of them have.
Said not mom, not Mama. Mother.
Mother my. You are maturing so.
Quickly, I'm so proud. I have a weird off the wall
question when I vanish, like because if I leave the baby with
the dire crickets a lot, would the baby just stay there?
Yeah. What do you mean you if you?
Were just like in. In.
The yeah, like so for like vanish the your baby.
No so like. When I missed the last session
and. I had the.
Baby was with the dire crickets and we were like discussing some
kind of game plan or watching the implosion happen and then I
vanished out of existence. Right?
The baby was still there. Wasn't attached.
Yeah, I wasn't doubting it or carrying.
It it is its. Own person, its own entity and
now is getting left in this world and it's just like did I
have a mother and then I come back and it's like Oh yeah I did
this is this little baby on strokes it's.
It's not being. Raised by.
The swarm, it is it. It has a lot of parents.
Now. I don't know Ezra's claiming it.
It can turn into a wolf, he's claiming.
I mean. If that were a base, I'm not Co.
Owning this one, I was gonna say.
That it could. Potentially be the if, if it had
multiple parents, that would be that would be a question of an
in itself, right? Whether or not it could stay
behind. After that, but the.
The the thought my my first, very first thought was like,
it's of you, Ash and Flint, who is Hamilton now.
But if neither Ash nor Flint exist at that time, then the
baby wouldn't exist. Emmett.
You know Emmett, but if one. Of you exists then the baby
would exist. Did you do a time travel?
Episode to go kill. Someone's.
Father Flanalton, how dare you? That's how you kill the.
Gods, you kill their parents. Before they were God, before
they were born. That's how.
Flammalton. So if it's Flammalton.
During the. Good.
Guys, it must be Hemet, Hemet, Hemet Hemet.
So like, yeah, if he would. Have gotten play tonight he he
would have been hammock tonight, right?
Yeah, I asked if he was getting on, but yeah, he had to get up
early, so no worries. I did try to ask.
Him like, do you? Really need 8 hours of sleep.
Me technically you only need. Three hours of.
Sleep to function. I function like.
Perfectly on like. 6. Hours personally and actually
the 8 hours isn't even. Oh no.
The only reason I know. So.
Technically 'cause. This is something that was so I
got in. I got in trouble when I was
young, private back in the day and I had to pull as many duties
as I was was told and I was told yes, you get 3 hours of sleep.
They do not have to be consecutive, so you can function
as a human being on three hours of sleep.
Naps. What do you mean?
And they're not they're you get 3.
You can function on three hours of sleep.
And they don't have to be consecutive.
And I did that for 45 days. That's just taking naps.
Yes it is I I slept like 2. Hours.
A night for a week in college and like to get.
To get like. My final like studio project
done so and I still pass college so it's possible.
Fucking sucks. Oh yeah, it, oh, it totally
sucked. My son.
Oh yeah. Yeah, I think like, I think in
the course of like a week I slept like 7.
Hours or something that's. Ridiculous.
I feel that. Yeah, my son.
My son just finished. The.
Summer semester. And ended up with all A is doing
the summer semester nice. He's tired.
He's he. Did five, he did.
Five classes. During the summer and I'm like,
well, you crazy, That's a lot. He pulled it off.
He's tired.
Well. He's tired of hell.
That's probably your son. That's awesome.
Think. Think.
Matt might have us all beat though.
Oh, for sure. Oh wait, no, Matt hasn't.
Said what his thing was me, I have long.
Term chronic insomnia. I used to get hospitalized two
or three times a semester every semester through college.
Oh man, well you're hardcore bro.
Hardcore. Bro it's not so.
Bad anymore now? That I've got like a schedule
and I found. Like a medication to help, but
like, yeah, if it hits it's still like. 4.
To seven days. You keep up with the
adorableness. I'm gonna adopt your puppy.
I know, right? Isn't that so cute?
It's so adorable. I mean I already got
transforming. Into a wolf stages, yeah, I
would say as. It's learning.
As as the. Child is learning itself.
It's going to turn into all the stuff around it.
So yeah, if you're interacting with it, it's going to turn into
something that looks like you, because it can turn into any.
Any kind of humanoid form, as long as it's something with two.
Arms, 2 legs and a head. So like it has wings.
No wings, no tail, nothing like that.
But it can do that with a good performance.
We found Oh my. God, it was a little bobtail
version of me. Didn't have a tail.
Oh. God, yeah, that's just what I
was imagining. Like it just didn't have a tail.
He's had a little a little like nubby butt.
Oh, and he looks very. Clean right now, Ash, he looks
very clean. Oh good, I'm glad.
The. Time that it's hanging out with
the dire crickets too, then it's just.
Trying to mimic the dire crickets.
But you know, yeah, I would say it would.
It would try so much to just be like.
Them. Danger before we end the
session. Does anyone want to choose a?
Door. Yeah, I want to point out the.
Small door that one, I think. Is worth investigating, but if
not everybody agrees on that, I I'm fine with going with the
crowd to the door that is chosen by the majority.
I thought small door. Does anyone have?
Clairvoyance. Or augury.
Whichever door leads to lunch. Bailing.
I'll stop him from the other guy though.
I do not have what can we? Ask Bill.
Dress the big. Guy that we're trying to kill.
I don't think you're going to want to eat that.
He's a little toasty. He might taste burnt.
No, no. No, no, no, no, not that good.
No, the God. I'm going to eat them.
I don't think you're going to want to.
Though. That's the thing, I would I
would vote to go to the small. Door, but I would ask Bildreth
if he knows anything about what's beyond it.
Because it was in his. Bar.
Bildreth would respond. Simply with well.
It. It was where some.
Of the shipments from outside. Came from for some of my
specialty ingredients, but well, yeah, we should grab those and
just stock up in here. Besides that, I I'm not not
very. Aware of everything that's
beyond that point, I can a test that it seemed to be of a
similar make as the hallway to the church for some reason.
And what about the? One, that was the South door.
Just to pump in for information before we just want only decide
the big door. The big deal door.
We know one. Goes to the church.
Yeah, which I, I, I kind of relate labeled in the pole.
Pole as W be just A so it's like a N to the South and it's not
really. It's more of like a SE door.
I was. Wrong in in.
My direction nation there. What happens when making fast
decisions late but anyways. So yeah, the other door.
And he? He would just go.
Yeah, was not. Allowed in that door I I think
that that particular door was intended for.
Kaishan, whatever. Yeah, whatever Kaishan had going
on. I vote for that door.
Oh, I hate him, man. Anybody ask the pimp?
Oh, can I ask the pimp? Yes, I want to ask them as we're
going, as we're. Going to ask the pimp.
Or lunch. I'm standing right next to him,
watching. Everything he's.
After. That 11 hours, too.
Like I said. Coughing and waking back up and
it was what a he, he. He.
Wakes up with.
Two massive. Paws just.
Placed on his on their chest. I don't know if Phelan, Phelan,
are you allowing that or are you like?
Standing in, I'm not eating it, I'm not eating it, Phelan still.
Yet. Paw.
One paw. OK.
And. He's waking up.
With the one paw and he goes. Oh, I remember being so.
Furry as he rubs what he thinks is his chest.
And you know and then at your. Face and he goes hey we're.
Going to play a game, OK, we'll play game and he.
Takes his one remaining hand and puts it behind his back.
Uh huh. Good.
Good, it's fun game. You tell me where floaty.
Head guy is or or. This is the fun part of the.
Game I eat you. This part's SO.
Fun. Intimidation.
Yes, yes. I'll.
See seriously why you have been mean to me like.
That roller Jesus 8 We'll see where it goes.
I guess, I guess with Phelan next to me.
Empty threat? That was a.
Intimidation. Yes.
Oh. Damn.
Yes, yes. Yes, yes.
Yes. But he just, he's, he's, you can
see. The bullets of sweat dripping
down his face as he as he goes. Like I said, I I'm pretty sure
I'd said it anyways. The door to the South, the other
door is pretty much ignore. Oh, and Ezra goes, is that?
The. The the churchy church, the big,
big door or the small door? You tell me?
Well, you have to go into the chamber with the church, right?
And then from there go South and then east across the bridge and
there is a door, 4th door. Hurry up, grab the.
Stock out of the little door and then.
Go yeah, I agree with. That, yeah.
And then go to the door. He is pointing out in the.
Church, he said. He said church.
Well, it's. It's in the chamber with the
church. OK, the chamber.
OK where? The church.
Used to be. I'm guessing it.
Used to be there. It might still be there,
actually. Yeah, the church is still there.
It's always there. He just says well hanging his
head. Ezra pass his chest now.
Remember if you lied to Ezra. Ezra, come back, he eats you.
He nervous. Farts.
Scaredy farts. He said.
We go to church. OK.
What do you guys think? I think that'll be our best.
Bet we should do it or it might be a trap.
Actually inside check. Go ahead and roll.
He's currently. Scare farting. 27 There is not a
doubt in your mind that this creature.
Is telling you to the best of their knowledge, but they
believe that's the safest. Way out of here.
That that is the route. To Kai Shen, which was the
question. Yes, it was.
Right, because we need. Someone to fuck up.
They don't have to. Fuck him up but like.
He this guy also if you. Remember, thinks that Kai.
Shen is just like a smoke behavior.
Smoke and mirrors we have to. Take.
Care of Kaishen to. Get out of the tub.
I can use the seal on this level.
Use the seal. For this level.
Believe so. Because if that's the case.
Then we like we there's. No way around it, we have to go
find. Him, no matter if he's like a
smoke and mirrors person, like smoke and mirror thing, or like
an actual person, Yeah, regardless of how this goes.
Ezra. Wins either way this goes.
If he lied, I eat him if he doesn't.
I still eat somebody. Let's go eat Kashan logic.
See. Ezra so smart.
So do you guys. Go.
Into. The OR try to go to the door.
To the S 1st to get the goods. That you're talking about, yeah,
we go, I think. So of course get all the goods
to stock. Up the pocket rocket.
Well, for that I will. Blink, blink, blink.
No, we we just need. One me Mama don't don't do.
That to me, OK, yeah, you can bring multiple, that's fine.
More than one me. Pay is only going to make things
better. You're there, Mama.
Knows Mama knows shadow clone juice too.
So you guys are standing before the door to the South?
I'm standing in darkness. It's scary in darkness.
Refresh, I just moved everyone. Hello, Darkness.
My old friend. My old friend.
I've come to Spark. To you game.
Oh, wait, wait. Wait, like.
I saw it's still darkness. No, no, no.
You got it. You.
Got it. Well, I found my token.
See, I found me. I'm still in darkness.
I might have overwhelmed my page because now it won't zoom in and
out. I'm stuck all.
The way zoomed out, everything's definitely dark for me.
Oh, OK. That's that's my own.
Fault. Josh, Josh, how dare you make.
There's so many. Settings.
All right, I turned. I turned.
I turned it on. Yes.
Underground Tavern. Fuck yeah, Yeah, you're in the
back. Of the It's not the Tavern
anymore there. It's just scorched nothingness,
but there is a door currently in front of you.
Oh. Door.
I don't. Think it's a door?
Yeah. Should we?
Inspect the door I. Feel like this is a trap?
I just think it's a trap, yeah. How do you mean?
I go up to it. I check all the edges.
I check the. Knobs, the hinges.
I'm visually looking it over before I touch it.
I don't roll the track. Yeah, OK, I'm visually sniffing
it. I'm spelling.
I'm spelling 4. Bad things, on the other.
Side. I'm visually sniffing it.
I'm visually. Sniffing it?
Yes, we're gonna go. Neither.
Well, could you? Do you wanna?
That's like when your cat walks into a.
Room and and they smell something.
And then they just. Start like lifting their head up
like yeah and they like and slow to.
Like around yeah, very sounding motion 17.
They're like, they're like taking half steps.
I was looking for investigation. Oh, I can roll.
I can. Roll with Perception.
So. I'll go with yours first
because. It's where my brains at.
You're sniffing at the door and you get a whole lot of metal
smell. That's that's coming, not.
Only off the door, but from behind.
The door. As if there's just more metal
everywhere behind the door. Does it?
Does it perk my danger sense? Not particularly.
You don't. Get any right?
It doesn't. There isn't any like.
Saltpeter. For instance, or fiery smells
and for ash your investigation on the door with A10 you're.
Looking at it. And at the jams and.
Head and everything like that. The all the spaces that it
connects to and you don't. You don't see anything else that
should be there besides the door and it's adjoining parts.
All right, so I'm going to gingerly reach out and touch
the. Handle.
Don't worry, I am right beside you.
The I would like to say. I'm holding a.
Baby, you're holding a. Baby, so you're touched the
handle. And it's a it, it reminds you of
the helm on a ship because of the multiple handles on the
doorknob. And it it doesn't budget.
Oh, like it? It's jammed.
No, like it's locked. Oh.
Break the door down. Wait, don't I have a key?
Do I have a key? For the.
School that you? Guys.
Blew up, Yeah. No, but I was like I was. 50%
owner of this place so. Didn't I get a key along with
the coin purse for the collections?
No. OK, I'm just going to call and
be like OK this. Door is locked, should we kick
it down or should we pick the lock as we're?
Going to pass the door, wait, rage, then pounce the door if I
can't Josh go. For it I.
Don't know can we eat 13 versus me the door.
I think the hardness of a door is like.
AC10. Yeah, I mean, I'm pretty sure
you hit it the. The real question is, I'm
raging. Nope, actually.
I apologize you. Don't.
You sadness smack into it with. A solid.
Thud, your claws scrape. Against it, leaving no
abrasions. Behind oh, oh he that just made
him mad. Oh, he's going again.
He's going. Again, he going sing in.
You can do it. Come here, sweet.
Little door, I just wanna. Touch.
You do it. 20. Two that'll hit I'm gonna.
Bust. That door.
Down. Come on.
Pretty. Door.
Does the door open I. Don't know I would.
Would you said 20? Two for damage, right?
2020. Two to hit it and then yeah.
What was the damage? Let's see.
Let's see damage. It'd be 10 hole damage.
It is still standing me and this door.
'S going to have fun. That's a sturdy door.
Y'all just kind of see like he? And bouncing back.
And he bounced back and he goes again.
I'm going to kill this door. 28 to hit.
It oh, it's going to hit it. Die.
Door die. 26 damage to the door. God damn trigger, I'm definitely
stepping. Back out of the way while I
watch this. It's basically like.
I would also say that Enyo and Easel watching this.
Are just like toddler gurgling and burbling and just absolute
joy. So yeah, you.
You deal another. You said 26. 26 Yep.
So how's that door feel now? Yeah, do you wanna tell?
Me how you break down? A large metal door.
So y'all first see? Ezra using it's like a normal
wolf. Hits it once, hits twice.
Finally in a frustrated state he goes from wolf to basically big
direwolf version and then Brim smashes the door.
Stupid. Door It breaks at the hinges
oddly first before. It breaks at the pretty.
Far the the latch, that's the brain that's.
The word I was looking for breaks at the latch and clatters
inward for everyone to see beyond into a dimly lit hallway.
Just yeah, with Ezra. With that, I'm going to.
Point out. That it's late and I'll have to
jump off? No, I think it's a perfect time
to call it I. Just wanted to make sure
everyone had a visual before doing so.
I know as repeat the door that error as repeat the door as.
Repeat the door. Yeah, I can see the map.
Cool. Oh yeah, I see it.
That's. The.
Order I. Would expect everyone to
actually be in well. Nice, so I see the door.
And you'd. Probably have to put Ferdinand
away there, Franklin. Considering yeah, I take out
I'll I'll dismiss. Him by pulling out a pokeball
and start running him back into it Ferdinand return we.
Got to go. So yeah, you guys find?
Yourself in a dimly lit. Metal.
Corridor, but good session. You survived.
Yeah, we. Live, we took a booty ride.
Booty. Tells me.
This person is. Going to prop.
Up again and I should name booty ride or no or.
No booty surf. Yeah, yeah, he's going to have.
To like now. I feel like in six months he's
gonna crop up and we're gonna be like.
Now we have to kill him. Well, Ash is now like his
subject or something. Right, yeah, I'm his lawyer.
Feel like she's gonna get fucked and then we're gonna try to.
Save her. And by saving her.
We're gonna have to kill him, but it's gonna be like six
months from today, so in like April or something, we're gonna
next to your rhythmic. Veracity.
Yeah, exactly. Technically you guys already
get. Kind of fucked by him but or
did. I fuck him.
Yeah, we went into him. Does that mean we have dominance
I. Penetrate.
Dominance. He didn't even know it.
Didn't even know it. Bro wasn't even ready.
Depends. Upon how you assert dominance.
I guess. OK.
I'm going to take off. Have a good one.
Day I. Was like, is anyone actually
going to leave? No, we're all going.
To a. Grand and wonderful.
