Hello Fair listener. Welcome and thank you for
following our journey on metagaming Byram, propelled
gaming, fair warning. 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, many polos.
Recording shot. Yeah, so warned you last
remember being on the wrong layer here, but being behind the
bar The Alehouse with a dwarf and having a conversation.
And then your and it was just about the dead body that was
near you and how apparently, you know, if people from not, he'll
die here, they died for building.
This is seem to be one of them but they didn't know, but if
people in hell in this particular level of it that are
bound to it die. They do come back.
And that's when your nipples come back. if you were bound to
this level of Hulk, so if you're about to this level, hell, and
then your nipples a light as he's talking and gesturing
towards his huts and you're looking over there because he is
saying, you're welcome to come back to the small village, we
have therefore a couple drinks if you want someone of the down,
lower on this level of hell, That sounds mighty.
Fine. Friend, mighty fine.
Great and he was was that conversation.
We had about the only Fighters thing only on between the two of
us that like one session that we were the only two that showed
up. Haters only Fighters said work
would have it only fans but it would call it only five years,
huh? Listen to think about it.
My character has skills in Accounting in bondage and has an
erotic gold chest plate. Oh and since I've kept pulling
people out of stuff I said Josh I really should have a skill for
pulling out. Subscribe.
Yeah. And the I'll leave that up to
the imaginations for now. The the dwarf though nods and
says, it starts walking towards the docks and when he turns
around away from you to face towards the docks, he starts
chattering on about all the wife's finishing up some dinner.
Probably, for me, after I disposed of that body and you
hear your friends still struggling in the mound.
In the background and some screams.
You just keep following this dwarf.
He's like, it should be some good.
Alligator stew. Actually.
That's what she said she was going to make. did he opens the
door to the Hut and you're slightly erect nipples become
massively hard at the cut to the left at of the one that he's
opening the door of and is gesturing you inside of And he's
looking at you and you see inside of the Hut just a couple
other dwars. It seems like all sitting around
a table with spoons to their mouths and one of them just
yells out Harold, you disposal that Bloody I followed him
inside. Sits down at the table and makes
it makes room while they're talking about, but the dumb shit
that must have wandered into the hell into this portion of hell,
that that must have died, and he threw him over there.
And you get it doled out a bull and he goes out and says,
anything else. You wanted to know about this
particular region? I think we're telling for.
I'm not sure if you've heard any ways of the, which is off to the
West and East. Yeah.
I've heard about them. Um, question, why are there so
many doors in this region of hell?
Oh, it's actually a sort of joke.
I think from one of our God's, they promised us a seat in
heaven. If we died in battle in a seat,
in hell, if we died any other way.
And well, they didn't mention that the distinction between the
seats being whether or not, we dyed in anger and vein, which is
where we ended up in hell here. And so we're pretty much angry
all the time, but you get used to it.
Just spoon some soup in his mouth.
Good stew, Martha. Are you second idiot where way?
Fuck you. Oh yeah.
Is it actually infinite? Yes, actually I say to these
doors, anyone want to see a magic trick.
They all kind of look, stop with their spoons.
I have some of them with the students in their mouths, and
look around and shrub to each other.
As not, like we ain't seen magic before I think you'd be rather
interested in this one. I need a very large glass.
It's not be hard-pressed to find one of those around here with
all the tussles I could get you a Tankard though.
I pull out the flask, I said, just as long as it's bigger than
this, Oh no, I'm all right. Bring multiple.
And he gets a glint in his eye assuming what's in the flask and
at you can tell any says any more of them bring out the
blankets and you just see you just hear her jostling around
behind and come out with her bosom pressed up against the
table slamming down mugs. They're short little doors.
Don't reach it. That's the table.
I forgot off on this one. and, Oh by the name, Mine by the way
my name is Harold. If you haven't caught on his any
slides one of the mothers over to you that his wife is a
brought out for you. We're waiting.
I'm sorry, I made it myself. I say Harold, take a whiff of my
flask and tell me what you smell.
He gets up off the bench a little bit as you're holding it
down. I'm assuming you're standing and
he leans over to the woman that liquor Whiskey to be fat in
fact. Oh, I don't think we've had such
good drink for quite a while down here.
And I take the flask and I hold it up.
And I start filling the tanker which I'm imagining is quite a
bit bigger. The new flask.
Yeah. Can I wait until it's
overflowing? Don't waste any of it and he
starts to cry and grab one of the other mugs hurriedly and put
it under the, under the flask. As he does that, I transition to
that much. Whoa, that's a lot in there.
I hand the previous mug to another dwarf and I pick up
another one and continue pouring until all of them are full and
they all start cheering you on. Presumably.
Yes. They're they're, they're
starting to drink and they're like, oh God, we like, you're
welcome back here anytime one. And they, you getting to the
last mugs and you're realizing. There's more bugs than dwarves
were currently. And so he after taking a decent
pool off of his own mug, he says, Mama come over.
Yeah, have a lot. She's like, what is it?
It's just disgusting. Don't shit on our guest Martha.
Good drink. A dwarf that doesn't drink, I
call him blasphemy on that and then she kind of slaps, her
husband upside, the head. You didn't want me.
It was whiskey and she's like coughing and you see it
dribbling out of her nose. I'm going to say this continues
for quite a while. And I'm only sipping on my well.
I imagine they're doing much more.
Oh yeah, later into the night. As you hear the slamming, things
settle down outside where your friends were enough fight with
the mound and you hear the faintest screams in the night of
something, female. And your first thought is at, I
couldn't be. They would have come found you.
If there was something more and that was when for everybody
else's Ash was giving birth and the the last of the dwarves are
kind of hanging around a couple, other ones and come in.
And in the meantime, if you poured them drinks, and they're
continuing to drink and they're trying to get you to drink with
them, How drunk are they? Harold is real drunk crazy.
This isn't been on average. How drunk are they on?
Average? The room seems mostly.
Passed out, there's maybe one or two.
That's kind of just sitting there in a stupor.
Now, the wise, not many people are even talking to each other.
Is there any bugs that are empty?
That I can switch mine out with without looking.
Suspicious, only a foldings. A lot of sleight of hand.
Well, it would be in. I think you might have both of
these because you're going to have to Yeah.
Oh every once you will performance with Advantage
because most of the people are drunk, I would say this.
This is for the step for the Sleight of hand.
Let's go ahead and do that for the for the mug itself, in the
beginning, to see how well that goes.
And then I'll go back to the performance sliding headfirst.
Yep. Did it roll?
Yep. No.
So you're you're able to as you're the one pouring and most
people are happy to see you continue to pour You're able to
pull one of the empty mugs as they came through off to the
side each time to make it look like you've been changing out in
your mugs for yourself as well. But we're only a performance.
To see how the night progressed. 21.
So that was going to be for whether or not they noticed you
not fitting that much more drunk so I'm assuming you're playing
in the fact that your kind of. Yes correct.
You can fact that I'm kind of Tipsy.
Yeah and so you're basically Standing there and then
eventually you're sitting there and then eventually you're
leaning against the the back of your hand as the the flask is
tilted sideways pouring, each glass and to the point where now
a the the flask is just tip flipped over on the table and
it's your kind of looking out of the side of your eye as its
continuing to pour out of it onto the table and somebody you
your comes in behind you. That's not that drunk yet.
Yet. And if one point in the night
and goes up, base must be? Yeah.
Can you put it back in your hand, turns the cap on it and
stand it up. Thank you.
My good friend. Oh, hey bug.
Oh and he picks up the mug and I can't.
That's some good fire water. Can't be havin too much of that.
Right now though, I've got to get back out on the watch just
was checking in on Harold and the crew here.
Usually they give me a bigger but I think I'll take this one
for the road. And he turns around.
All right, I'm going to follow you out because I need to take a
leak. Yeah, you just want to be
careful of the alligators, this time of night, they get there,
they're mostly asleep around the docks and such so or rather out
from the docks and keep them, keep them pretty far back.
So it opens the door and you guys both walk out across the
dock and you're seeing a couple bullets in his doll.
So don't fall in the water and he grabs your shoulder as you
kind of of presumably. The attending the we Tipsy day
and he kind of faces you towards the dock and pissed that way he
leaves off or leads off something down the dock and with
his torch in the night. And this is sipping on his
whiskey in a mug. So where is he now?
Can you show me on the map? Yeah, sure, yeah, yeah.
No problem. I was I was in Imaginationland
so there. There you are your, your any
starts walking this way. all right, I'm gonna like like keep
it eye on him to see if he goes any further.
He continues on his way. He just looked back over his
shoulder hurt when he doesn't hear you pee, and then he's
like, just relax a bit loud, don't be so gun shy, and he
keeps walking. I take out the infinity flask
and start pouring it into the water.
All right. There you go. and he's just
walks down to a couple others that seem to be standing around
a it's actually not night out, you're realizing But it's seems
to be the nighttime for them because the the it's just such a
dim overcast. All the time, but it is
seemingly. Night time for them because they
do get some torches and such running even though it's not
that dark out. It's not even didn't really but
they're yeah, they've got their torches in their down here at
this doc opposite of you. No one else seems to be moving
around too much. Does those ones that are keeping
with our? Mainly at the dock, get it.
You have to get up to get eaten to their area from ground.
Okay, I'm going to start pouring, it seems reasonable.
Okay, is that one dwarf looking at me now?
Now they're completely ignoring you, it seems like they're
having a conversation. You can kind of catch Snippets
of it. I'm going to walk over to the
house that gave me a wrecked nipples.
Do I ever need to roll a sneak? No, not at this point.
Hey. Is there any windows or
anything? There are, but they seem to be
boarded up from the inside. I take a minute and I press up
against the door, real softly, to see if I can hear anyone.
Like sleeping or like sounds or anything?
Perception check. Come on.
Keep rolling. Good.
No goddamn it. It's 2011 please just not a one.
You know, you tips here than I thought.
You wonder if some of the vapors that were evaporating from the
alcohol, may have affected you but you do.
You'll need to catch that because of the wavering of your
stance on the Docks, but then you're questioning whether or
not, it's actually the docks moving to maybe not you.
That's Unstable and you refocus and listening in you here.
No voices, or even breathing, or snoring or anything from the
inside. Any signs of life. the door does
seem to have a keyed lock on it, there is a knob of some sort and
they Eagles and I look through the keyhole Or is this one of
the, like a modern lock? Nope, you look in the keyhole
and it is even darker than the outside with the, especially all
the windows being boarded up. You the only in the only source
of light, being the key hole and under the door that you're
standing at Illuminating, only very shadowy Things inside.
I very, very gently check to see if the door is unlocked, door is
not locked. Do I have any lock picks?
I should have lockpicks. Do I not have why pics?
Fuck what happened. All my lock picks?
But I had three levels of inventory.
Did they change that? The update, the character sheets
on DD Beyond. I Got a notification when I
clicked on, but I don't know. If how it affected everybody
else's? Oh, there they are.
Okay, I'm going to try and lock pick the door.
All right. You got Gary.
It is that lock-picking sealed. So you put your take out your
tools and you start going to town on this lock, turning the
Tumblers and you feel around and you can only do you tell that
there is only for tumblers, as you're pretty sure it's
unlocked. I'm pretty sure what happened.
Sorry. Oh, that it's unlocked unlocked
now. Okay.
Again, I gently open it. The the hands turns, and the
door starts to move Inward and behind you.
You hear the off on one of the other Doc's, presumably, because
you don't see anybody directly behind you.
If somebody's coming up the dock, I quickly.
Barry and stealthily try to slide my throw away through the
door. Well, stealth Yes.
God damn it. It was a sneak.
Are you have Advantage with this, right?
No. I have disadvantage because I'm
wearing my gold chest plate. Oh!
That's right. I need two Foie.
Fuck how much until I get those? I think I need another level
until I get Was it called? Until feet or whatever.
Oh, that you have the XL up there tells you on their 20.
Should give it to you whenever you do.
Level up. Oh hold on or changed.
Either way you slide in through the door and you see a torch
coming around the door or the building's wall as you close it
behind you. And might I forgot to do the
thing. So take that 15 because I know
I'm a heavy armor Master. Okay.
And you are Standing inside a pitch-black room with only the
light of the keyhole Illuminating where it can reach.
Because you don't have night. You don't have dark vision d.
Being a human and all. Yeah, I don't know where that
would even tell you where it is. It's usually under just, it
would be off to the left side. Under like the armor weapons
tools languages. I think it o additional senses
is that, does that say? I don't have that.
Okay. so, you're standing in a very dark room, With the door
closed and you hear them walking by outside and you see the torch
light just under the door. Do they stop at the door walk
past? It sounds like they're looking
around and then continue on their path.
Okay. Pan.
It comes in a Tinderbox. A piece of like a square piece
or a rectangular piece of Steel. And Little chunk of Flint.
That as you as well, as I think, there's usually some Tinder.
So, like some small things to start a fire, like this small
container holds it, flint firesteel, and tender, usually
dry cloth, soaked and light oil used to Kindle a fire.
If I strike if I have strike the Flint with the fire steel, does
it produce a spark big enough for me to see Recently.
And if that's what you're doing. Yeah, I just need an image of
what's in the room. So it's memory, baby.
Are you doing this? That's going to be loud though.
It's also gonna well, if anyone can see you, well, the the
windows are boarded up. Man.
You know what? I'm going to just Crouch next to
like the door in the wall and just like feel my way around the
room. Okay.
Roll the a perception. I need to upgrade that skill
hahaha. And you.
Our feeling around and you kind of feel a, some wood and some
metal, let's kind of the casing kind of corners of it, may be
here. Keep going think that's a chest
because it's about chest level fight.
But it's Feeling. And then you get kind of a clasp
on One Piece. You're not sure if it's the same
piece that you were feeling just moments ago, only because as
you're running your hands along it that you had to take it off
for a second to get to the class.
And it's kind of hard to tell you know, obviously without any
plaintiff are you continuing to go around or so I can keep
going. And I tell that there's nothing
no one in the room like there or is it just you was not heard a
sound while you're in the room? Fuck it.
I'm gonna strike the What do I have?
I'm going to take my bedroll and I'm going to place it at the at
the just where the door like under the door, not under the
door but like at that Gap. Okay, I'm going to stand with my
back against the door and strike it in front of me to like block
the keyhole. I'm trying to hit stop light
from escaping sure. And I don't think you need to
roll anything for that because you were good for right now and
you strike it. And inside of the room, you see
a brief flash of a bunch of chests.
It looks like container chests. All enclosed.
From the floor to the ceiling lining each wall including the
back and decides is there anything on the ceiling?
I do not think you would have looked up in that brief second.
But you can strike again. Can I see any light coming
through the ceiling like anywhere?
There are small cracks, if you will that, you know, of light
but not in the ceiling actually, where the roof meets the walls,
as you look up. And it's only the, barest
pinpricks, they're not even letting in that much light.
That's just a pinprick. Was there any windows at the
back of the room? Like opposite of the door there
seems to have been direct one directly across from you and the
door on the other side that was boarded up, you would have seen
the boards just around one of the chests.
So those are just in front of it.
Floor to ceiling chest friend. Holy shit.
Yep. And your nipples are standing at
be, but most attention. Oh, I'm a dumbass.
How good are the windows boarded up early?
Like, boarded up, like really fucking good, like, not even
like lights. Going to make it out.
There. Is very minimal light like again
pinpricks that are coming through it but they say there is
no other when you were looking around, I guess you could strike
again, like I said to put those common close.
We get like from our adventuring here.
Are we wearing those like considered to be wearing those
for the most part, usually, unless is otherwise because
usually you'd wear something under your armor, Who wearing an
armor bear, ouch. Yeah, right.
Maybe that's why his nipples are always another his armor.
So leather breastplate, would that be big enough to cover a
window? You see aggressive light?
Yes, yeah, probably wait. From my idea of what a
breastplate is. How big is your breast?
Yes. Yeah, that's what I thought.
It's like not just I don't know why they call it that because
it's not just the the chest, it's also the stomach.
Yeah. Oh yeah.
Like it wraps around. No that's that's what it does
wrap around to your back. Usually, it actually usually is
to Pieces your whole. Yeah.
Covers your whole So yeah, it's usually two pieces.
I was sure shirring myself. It was that and not the other
thing that I know of, that is a piece of armor.
Not not quite like a bra though. They do have that too but they
do have the ones that are just like covering the heart
basically because that's the only technical vital organ that
you could completely just died from great on the spot without
killing your enemy. I see I'm also going to to fund
is there only one window in the front?
There are 212 either side of the door.
You could tell, especially from the outside before you win.
And the center of the space is mostly clear.
You could tell during that brief strike as well.
Just so that people could get around with these chests because
there are pretty stocked. There's a lot of them.
Oh, rope how much wood? How much will window?
Would 50 feet of rope cover? How big is the window?
I was probably like a 3-foot that sound like five tasks right
there. Well, it's real but they're
saying it's whatever. Okay, I just I'll hang up if I
split the leather armor and a half, could I covered both
windows? Mostly yeah.
Okay, I'm going to do that. I'm going to cut off a small
piece rope and stick it in the lock though.
You might be overthinking this too because of the fact that
there are chests in front of those windows as well.
There are. Okay.
Yeah. Well I'm going to take a little
piece of rope like just I don't know.
I will sacrifice but if I need to just to stick in like the
keyhole Okay. Three top.
Sniffle thistle the Rope off and shove it on the keyhole and you
have your bed wall in front of the door.
Yep. And I pull out my glowing gold
and platinum ball underneath when you're in and and you pull
it out, still in its brilliant form and it illuminates the
entire Tire 20 by 20 foot room easily and you're seeing there's
the chest stacked on top of one another to the ceiling.
There's probably Five in a stack and they're, they're aligning
either wall, like I'd said and they're each five feet at least
wide and I open this chest or do I need to like take them down?
It seems like you would have to take one of them down.
You hadn't really caught understood that without the
light but because they're so stacked in here yet seems like
you would have to take one of them out to even open them.
There is a ladder on the far wall to get to the top chests.
There's actually two ladders that looks like it would have
taken two dwarves to lift these boxes on top of each other, and
I check the top chest. The beach of them.
Sure. You sort of start working my way
around the room, I guess. Yeah, you are in the you go
across the room and you get the to the ladder where you're about
to be working and you hear outside again the and you hold
your breath and everything I'm assuming any there just
whistling And they go on by seems like.
And This comes through like that.
Oh yeah. Oh well. and they just keep on
walking, and you hear their steps fade away as you go to the
ladder and uh presumably start opening this just now and you
look at the top one and you see as you hear the three of the
that you stick your head in and there's just Gold and Gems,
silver and platinum. All kinds of things that you
would just wish to be bathing in right now.
Or and makes and I cannot understate this the most shit
eating grin. And I just how much gold can I
carry? Inaudible trustful.
I would imagine unless you have gotten that, I don't know of a
It's called the dimensional bag bag, a holding or whatever it
is. Here we go.
Yeah, holding Or like similar. Mighty Granger pouch.
How much is how much I have a backpack and it can carry 30
more pain. Wait, what?
I didn't seem right. All right, I know we've been
basically saying that there isn't a limit to the money that
you can actually carry in the physical sense of that nature,
but when it comes to Gathering as much out, I've always had you
guys like especially if it's a quick Venture in this one's case
too and you're trying to be sneaky about it.
I would assume he needs to do it in some way that it's not
completely obvious or and or You know, you're lugging a chest
through their little village like, hey, where'd you get that?
Which the case of this, I mean I would roll some dice for it to
for you to tell you how much you'd actually gave.
But if you're just loading up as much as you possibly can right
now we can determine later. What is this?
What's this? You remember gazebo?
Yeah, you remember when you were walking out of the building,
correct, there was a gazebo off to your right as you're entering
it. Seems to be a good fishing spot
because a lot of poles are set up on the railings and such.
There's a fucking boat. I could just put it in the boat.
How high off the dock. Or haha.
How high off the water is the dock.
Like least I Feit a least, five feet.
Could I fill this boat under the dock?
Yes, Oh my god. Do I do this?
I'm going to wait for the guard to pass again.
You waiting for counting the minutes, I'm assuming this time.
No wait, wait wait, wait wait. I'm going to try to pry a hole
in the floor with my crowbar as quietly as possible.
I know that sounds fucking stupid, but I'm going to do.
Roll Rings. Check
well, I got 12 and you stick the end of the end of the Crowbar,
as best you can without hammering it into the floor and
start trying to pull you feel it.
Start to give a little bit but you really, you're thinking
really good if you had a hammer to jam it in between the boards
because they're pretty well made and put together.
It seems like but you are you got to come up just just a
little bit before. You can wiggle a little crowbar
back in A little bit deeper maybe but it did not come out.
Do I try again or do I try something else?
Would you say a hand? Axe is blunt on the back?
Yeah. I do a slight tap, a small tap
on the back of the Crowbar, just to see how I was going to be
like a judge. and, There was a resounding as you hit metal, to
metal. Even though it's just the
smallest of tabs. As you're sitting there
contemplating to yourself, you hear in the background.
My whistles on coming through. Yeah, but you hear whistling.
I hold my breath and I wait for it to pass.
I'll be here. The Right outside of your door
and then you hear a rustling of cloth.
Then you here. Trickling of water as its
flashing items, though water below.
The Gardener reading themselves and in about the same spot that
you did. So, like here.
Yep. All right and then the rustling
of cloth is they continue on their way to keep whistling in
the steps, fade-in awful it away.
I'm going to try to pry up the board without hammering it
again. Okay?
Okay. General.
Okay. Oh, I got a 12 at least.
A 12-2. That's what I'm seeing.
So you get a little bit more on Prime that one board out, but it
does it in your kind of able to wiggle it down the Crowbar.
Just that little bit more. You feel like you're on the
other side of the board by this point now with the Crowbar and
you think if you gave it one more good tug you could probably
get the boards and the nails that are attaching it to the
Wood under it. Okay.
One more try. I'm being still being real
careful. All right, and you pull it.
You you leverage it out anymore as it.
Pops out of the nails pop out of the wood below and you can feel
that the board is a good bit looser than it is.
You could probably pull it, the rest of the way, as you can get
your hand under it. Now, to pull it, the rest of the
way out of, just, with a slight tug of your hand, if you wanted
to, okay, I'll do that. All right.
And you give it up no problem and you're seeing below you, the
sloshing Waters, how big of a hole have I made now.
It is a Two inch board, and the full length of it, stretches, a
solid, 8 feet. Is it easier now to pull up the
rest of them? That that one's gone?
You would imagine. So yes.
I'm going to try to pull up enough boards to so I could
squeeze through. Okay.
Probably like three or four, three or four?
Yeah. I was going to roll this one
word. you're able to do it more or less unnoticed, if you would
actually will me a stealth against that to guess in though
considering my role Okay. I know this routine.
I'm actually quite enjoying this.
All right. You were able to pull the
board's up, no problem. You've heard the guard past two
or three more times in the tuck in the meantime and you're
guessing it seems like he's on a regiment of probably 12-minute
intervals. Weirdly two or three times is a
very important distinction because if it was Let's see.
One, two, one, two, three. Because we went back three
times. He's back.
To the right of where my characters position.
Now opposite of the boat Earth. Me, he has, he is back to the
right position. All right, you can keep
yourself. Well, how long ago did you pass?
Probably about three minutes or so.
So you probably got a good nine minutes before he passes again.
Okay. Hi.
Open the door. Check.
No one seems to be a belt. I look at this boat.
This boat. Is it like roped up?
I'm guessing? It does seem to be tied up for
the evening after it's fishing days day.
Okay. I'm going to take the boat.
But instead of like untying it I'm going to take out one of my
daggers and I'm going to cut the rope to make it look like it had
frayed and broken. How are you getting to the boat?
So you did you walk out the front doors, what you're saying?
Yes? Okay, Crouch no worries, Sly
Cooper, like theme music, you're good.
You don't even have to little cells.
I was just clarifying. So you walked out the front door
again and you climb down the ladder and started to cut at
this rope, just wanted to clarify to make it look more of
like it's been worn rather than you would actually expect so
that You might, you know, you could probably even really your
bondage skill there. Fuck yeah.
Best investment I ever made. It's come in handy.
A few times. Something is going to come in
handy again? When I try to get all this shit
out of the way you, you're able to do an adequate job.
You're guessing that if anybody was just looking at it they
would they would assume that it would have been frayed along the
side and not cut by a length and middle. and now, I Row the boat
or pull the boat under the dock. However, it would be more
convenient for me I guess. Little Mia.
Still at this point. With disadvantaged probably.
Not on and you slide the boat under the dock ducking your head
and pulling it. Pulling yourself very so
quietly. So as to make as little noise as
possible as you hear the Of the walking feet in the whistling of
the Guard coming by and you as you slide under the duck out of
sight. I wipe my brow.
But this ain't my first rodeo and you can hear just by the
whistling to your guessing, he's a little Out Of Tune.
So hopefully, this is the card that you fit alcohol, not too
long ago and it steps. As you can see sitting under the
dock now, you here are a little less straight than they probably
should be. So he walks on by and whistling
to himself, Julie. Not, don't you need anything
about it both? I'm going to cut a 10-piece 10
foot piece of rope out off of my 50 feet.
I'm going to tie one end. To the boat.
And one end. Would the Crowbar be long enough
to like span the gap? I made?
Yeah. Probably in tie one end to the
crowbar. And then pull myself up.
Well, being Athletics bleep. These are all skills.
I'm good in. It's like they're doing
something. You were meant to do.
And you pull yourself up into the room and you are easily
enough, you're sitting there on the edge of the floor and you
hear some footsteps not in the time when the guard should be
coming. Outside the door.
Can you freeze for a second? and then you hear, as you're
sitting there thinking to yourself, hoping that they just
go away. I drop ceiling of keys.
I, Sneak to the side of the door that opens.
The door opens and I'm guessing. Yep.
I'm going to hide myself on the side that it opens into if that
makes sense. Yes.
I understand what you're saying? Good.
We'll miss stuff. Holy shit, 27 accomplish that
and do problem. The keys finish jangling outside
sounds like they've selected one as they put it into the lock and
start to turn it. My God looks like a hand.
I'm going to pull my bed sheet away or beds thing away. 28,
Jesus Christ. Yes, and you you're able to you
kind of just throw it behind you for a second.
I'm assuming. Yeah.
And and the door, the door here as hard as usual.
Somebody must block, like ask finally turning the doorknob and
she is the door opens up and they come in start to come in
and the door. Opens on your face and comes
swinging in towards the wall towards you.
And as they do this sneak attack.
With. My sort of nope which I'm
guessing I've had drawn since I knew they were coming.
Okay. I've never done sneak attack,
even though I've had this action for so long.
Is this a lethal attack is my next birthday?
Yes, I'm going. I'm going to try to Slit their
throat with my sword. Okay.
Oh shit. This no, it's someone who had
the key so I don't give a fuck. How does how does?
I don't even know how sneak attack works.
Oh, So do I just add another what?
You can hear first level, whatever they're doing extra one
day. Okay.
that rolled no, that rolled Wait once per turn.
Yeah. Oh, and a brute.
Hold on, let me Google something real quick.
That 26 plus to hit. I'm assuming that's a nap 20
days to walk. Yes.
This is going all in my fucking back.
Okay. So how much damage does that do?
The 2D six were the 2D six damage with, okay.
So I thought yeah it doesn't roll damage.
So slashing is 7 so double that because it's a crit.
Yep, 14 plus 8 plus another D for because my I'm going to use
brute. Let's see.
So you're able to especially brutal force whenever you hit it
with a weapon that you're officially in Deal damage, the
weapon damage increases by amount B.
Okay, so I'm just rolling. Is there a way to just roll and
So Wagers rolling a roll20. Hello, I'm here.
I'm here. I don't know.
It's Josh. Hello.
I bet his Discord had a little bit of Difficulty, I just did a
couple of minutes ago. Babe.
Okay, so 14, plus 8 is 22, 22 plus 4 is 26.
My awesomeness, disconnected him from the server. 20-plus
overload does not compute I can't believe that.
I think that's my fur to Nashville 20.
I've rolled on an attack like an actual attack.
Oh nice. Way to go.
I've rolled plenty of natural 20s doing stuff but like not,
not as like a crit. First time for everything.
The thieving, an awesome spin-off series.
Great. It's me telling stories about
how are ya everyone? I've met.
This is really just a sitting around a campfire listening to
war and talk about one of his regalia list.
Yeah, exactly. This is what exactly we met back
up. And we're like, what have you
been doing for like, the past blah blah?
Yeah, I've been robbing these people blind.
There's a hole in the floor. You want to go get more Mama's?
Just sharpen. Your axe is not paying
attention. All right, I can't wait to how
here. How I did.
All this work. That will be fun.
I will be fun. I'm surprised.
It's only the three of us tonight.
I'm four. It's Valentine's Day.
That's fair. I'm so lonely.
Oh yeah. I was not.
I was not going to be that guy but yeah, let's sing.
Yeah, we gotta hear me now. Yep.
I did. You see the hot shower thing?
I sent you up shower? Did I send that to you know?
Oh, I saw a thing on Instagram that was like the hotter.
You take your shower. The more lonely, you are.
Let's see. I'm getting clean.
And the only ones here for oh gosh, did you share the news
with everyone? Oh well we can.
Well, let's get back to the Indie.
We can share it on now. I was I was trying to say it
won't benefit Rosel. Yeah, that's basically it.
That's the news is what I was in Vietnam.
I planned it all out and kind of ring design a few months ago to
for, um, like my girlfriend Chief, we've been together for
like five years. So I figured it was about time
to make it more than a little official that we are special.
Yeah, yeah, congratulations. Thanks James here,
congratulations? Yeah.
Okay. Yeah, me slitting.
This guy's throat. Please elaborate as much as you
would like, because you definitely succeeded and what
you were attempting to do. And he said, listen my dad and
as I put my sword to his throat and with one quick motion, I cut
almost all the way through only being stopped by his spinal
column on June pure. The other than that, satisfying
note of noise you, the last little calm and the blood that
pours from the wound across your hand and your blade and I
quickly try to pull him in to the broom.
He was mostly into the room as you better hold of than.
So you just fantastic lean back and close the door with your
back as you're holding this small limp dwarf in your hands.
Oh fuck. He's going to come back.
Fuck. Okay, I just start hurrying now
because I know he's going to come back. all right, so he
throws the torque to the floor and then get I'm guessing and
start loading the boat up with chests.
Yep. And you know that the guard is
probably only five minutes away from his next rounds.
Yep. So you get your first chest in
there and your heavy breathing after you carried it down the
ladder by yourself. Go ahead and roll me in
athletics, as you toss it into the boat.
And you hurry up the ladder and you grab a second chest and toss
it into the boat, and the boat slashes as you toss it in there,
from that 5 with distance, right?
Next to the other one. The the second lid to burst open
a little bit of some coins to think across the surface, where
we are. And I feel it again with
disadvantage. She's the first one and you
hurry up, and grab the third and Chester.
You're pretty sure. I got the extents of your your
five minutes. You're probably coming up on the
last minute. You have here and you toss it
down into the water, and I just jump into the boat with it and
splash around in it and you Here, the guard from outside
going. Hey, what?
Who's under there? Is it Boot Steps coming closer?
Paddling, paddling, paddling paddling.
The northern Direction. Yes.
Just just away from where that sound came from.
- thank you so you will. Yeah, it would be another
Athletics but it would be probably with disadvantage
actually. No.
You know what it would be regular because you're doing on
this kicked in by this point. So a regular Athletics for me
I'll come on, I am starting to slow down, think you are but
you're still the adrenaline's kicked in and you get to a good
15. 20 feet away before the guard, that was rounding.
The corner starts to cry out. Someone's killed And you the
name Trails off as you're getting a fan distance and the
water splashing around, you is louder than cries that are
coming from behind you, keep rowing rowing.
Rowing what do we do? We row row and you were all four
at all a solid ten hours before your you just pass out from
exhaustion with nothing in sight, besides you and the
waters. I take murky, murky Waters.
I take stock of what I have. Oh you mean when you wake up
because you just passed out. Yes.
Okay. So in taking stock of what you
have, you look in the first chest and you see is
satisfactory gold as you expecting and such that.
You would seem from the first glance.
The second one that is filled out a bit similar to the first
one. And then the third one, when you
open the lid, your befuddled, because it is heavy as the first
two, but there's only a single Wilkie on the inside.
I try and pick up the key. The key of Destiny.
Now on you can you go to pick it up?
And it's way heavier as you expect as you then you would
have expect from this regular-sized key.
It's only about the, what would fit in a usual lock and all, but
so you go to pick it up with just your tooth, your finger,
and your thumb in it, and you can't quite get it with that.
So you go to kind of grasp it with your whole hand before you
leave a canoe, your home. wait, the whole heft it up and and you
can feel the boat rocking as you do under you.
And they Warren. Thanks very hardly do himself.
Does one of my companions have a bag of holding.
Memory. I'd that needs to be a skill
recall. Is that a thing?
I don't think it's thing. And I'm like the memory recall,
you mean, yeah. It's usually related to like a
history. Check.
But you could try to history, it would be his wisdom and know
it's actually an intellect because the history and and
that's because all intellect is is memorization.
Another 20, what's fuck? Why did not eat you?
Your don't remember any of your companions saying that they had
a bag of holding. But you know, for a fact,
there's a few of them that are holding larger than you would
expect items. So you're pretty damn sure at
least one of us got one. All right.
You just can't remember who because none of them will Tell
you shit, it comes to that stained officer panel.
I sort through the gold and stuff and stuff.
My pockets with, as much platinum first that I can, that
I can find or carry whatever I hit first.
When he comes to the Platinum, you fill your pockets before you
even can get to thinking about the gold and you fill your
pockets with in about 142 or 402 gold Platinum before their they
wouldn't even take a single more.
Alright, I'm happy. And is there any land?
I can see it like the nose, not even a little, although you're
wondering about these. Oddly shaped floating logs, all
around you. There's like, logs.
I take out my bow and I shoot one of the logs.
And you shoot at it. And as the It's a bow, right?
So it's not a crossbow. Okay, so as the arrow strikes,
it the it's snarl snaps up and tries to bite the arrow as it
sinks into its flesh. And we see a little bit of blood
out of the parent crocodile, that is only lounging in the
water as it wilts away again. Well, I'm going to try to get
away from those. Seems like they're pretty thick
all around you currently the only clear distances to the back
the way you came but you're you're guessing it's been a good
12 out plus hours since you left where you were.
Okay, I'm gonna go back the way I came.
But with like a slight, Cantor off to the one side where there
is like that outcropping of trees.
Sure if that makes sense, if you understand what I mean.
Yeah, absolutely see. If I don't think I have any of
these boats on a token layer. So we're just going to have to
imagine but you will back in probably now it's been a solid.
30 hours since you left. And you're rolling back in. go
ahead and roll me a Delf, move disadvantage.
Actually you know what? No.
Yeah but still these disadvantaged probably Because
what the fuck is that shit? Oh my God, they're not natural,
but they're 22 20s. My God clutch tonight.
Because what you see though, things are all Milhouse is One
of the largest shiniest individuals, maybe.
Maybe it's a small hill, but as you're coming closer and around
you do kind of see ahead and some arms and legs kicking off
of the side. Oh, the of the docks area that
you were at, and this Shack that you are hot that you'd walk past
before is now destroyed with charred remains behind and the
large individual just seems to be whistling to themselves
happily And yeah, the other dwarves are kind of picking
themselves up down here. It seems like, some of them are
putting limbs back together, still or heads back on spots.
As you roll into the little copse of trees.
And you see the Ale House off in the distance, let's go off to
the east into the trees. I didn't make it this far as a
thief. Yeah, that's better.
Let's give this big tree. okay, so you're in the boat right now,
then you have the three chests, And your stomach is growling.
Then you're still pretty tired even though you passed out for a
good, you're not sure. Actually hadn't been a while
though. He felt rested before you
started. I'm going to unload the chest.
I'm going to. Cover them with brush is best I
can and I'm going to kick the boat back out into the water.
Section. Yeah.
Deception. We did the connected with
Charisma, but it seems appropriate for my character.
Definitely look. You heard leak, cover them up
and they seem pretty well hidden.
And you kick the boat off as it gets jumped on by an alligator
or crocodile rather as you kick it.
When you kick it out this last time because they weren't as it
settled down and stop rocking back and forth is when it got
chomped on you watching it as you're covering up, the Chest.
I'm going to leave those there. And I'm gonna go get me.
Some Grog you want to? Yeah, I can, I guess it can draw
what you do with that. Yeah.
Actually. Mmm. and I tell from quite a
distance Through the Windows if there is a If there's a
commotion going on in the bar, it seems very calm in the bar
for once. There's not a bunch of commotion
at all, And where are you going to go
when you when you're standing in front of it as well?
You're like, wait, isn't there? Usually somebody.
In the doorway. Wait, where show video?
I think I passed out in the doorway of the usual.
We carried him back up. No, everybody's been stepping
over him in the doorway. I'm gonna head back back here by
the wagon, The Carriage get. And I'm going to cover my
distinct, Red Cloak in mud and dirt and hopes to make it less
red. Exception again.
Exception or disguise? Do you have a disguise trait?
No, I don't. I thought this guy's real skill.
I don't think so. That's why I was going with the
deception. There are those.
Here are those A possibility for something like that.
But why is that guy still up there for driver?
Oh, the corpse? Yeah, it looks like it has been
eaten on by good bit of crows and so he does.
Can I try to be gross? But now I change into that, I'm
gonna stuff my Red Cloak and like The thing in a, please tell
me has a monocle. Tucked in one of the pockets, as
you putting the code on, you would be, would definitely find
a monocle. Do you want to wear only in
athletics though? as he's at the top of that tree,
you get up to the top and actually you get, you're not
even at the top but this time your exhaustion is kicking in
and you grab the first couple branches and one of them breaks
and you slide back down the tree, the first attempt.
Restoration and you with can-do attitude, just grit your teeth
and get back under the carriage and start climbing up to the top
and get into it. Does the driver have a mustache?
No, they've really pretty cool, you shaving.
Are they like withered like a corpse there?
Withered, but and it is very evident that they are corpse.
But I wouldn't say They're probably in the first few stages
of Decay. You know where their skin is
tripled in there? It was up in the top hat a bit,
but when it when you took that off, it went down to their
shoulders. I'm going to cut off a handful
of hair. I'm going to get changed into
his thing, put on the monocle stash.
My stuff that I don't like How do I put this?
My recognizable stuff in the Cart.
And I'm going, and I'm going to slide back down.
The tree. Is there any sap on the tree?
no, there's a good bit of moss, and Other bark and decay of
course of the the tree. Because it doesn't seem very
Lively at the moment. Do I see any trees that would
be? The ones off to where the
corpses were and the monsters eating the corpses seemed a
little more lively and I'm going to walk over to those ones.
You see a couple of those larger monsters that you'd seen before
watching cautiously, as you walk over to them.
But continued to eat their corpses that are littered around
in this area and the putrid smell that you will remember.
We're burning your nostrils jams its way, back up in there again.
What you doing at the tree prefab?
Oh, none. So evidently So it does not
appear to be, you know, a pine tree, some sort of deciduous.
And you're looking around. You don't really see too many
times in this area. It looks like any to be clean.
Let's get what does Miss can I come with?
Millions to my. Need something sticky.
Oh you're thinking about that for a second, ruzek and vote.
Ruzek and you both are waking up with the other companions in the
first level of his bar currently and rubbing your eyes and
stretching looking around. Hmm.
Get what happened last time. I did happen, like I said
there's a lot more bodies. I just realized, Josh had a
baby. Remember giant, Mech monster.
I remember, Ash, giving birth. Oh, that was Yeah, that was the
last thing is Giant. WE fled the mech monster.
Okay, but did we discover a new drink?
I don't remember that. It has been a while.
It was one of the drinks that the ghostly forms of giving you
I think so. Yeah they seem to give you a
different drink each day you've noticed because every time
you've got a plan, A different kind of danger.
Everyone else is just still kind of passed out in the yep. and
the door of is those that aren't passed out are Ambling about
with small plates of food eating.
So there are doors in here. Okay, well, so they're not just
like this is the the Royal Gorge dwarf.
Still hanging out in the bar. I forget his name. the guy who
was kind of telling us where the The Witches to the East and the
west. And that there were dwarves of
the north is he is he kind of in the bar still, if it's not him,
it looks like a brother of him by you.
But still most everyone. Yep, for the, like I said, for
from your companions. Yes, the doors.
There are some of them that are awake I start like nudging
people. Okay.
Your companions or yeah, my companions.
None of them seem to respond is the The guy.
We did we did just escaped a Mech troll dying thing.
No, it does not look like you care.
I'm just, I'm just saying. Okay, so I thought the question
is, what do we do now? Yes.
Well, can't question is, what are you doing?
Well, we never we never recover the exactly.
We never figured that out. Everybody's passed out.
I know almost literally nothing about this thing so that doesn't
help. Awesome.
So you want to, you want to get a drink and try to figure out
this Mech monster while we're while we're waiting for the rest
of these jackasses to wake up. Or I could take the dodecahedron
and examine it myself. Where is it?
I believe Muriel has it. Can I spot Muriel?
Yep. Yeah, she is directly behind
you. When you woke up, you guys were
kind of leaning you and her in Brazil to work and I just
leaning up against each other passed out.
All right. So I kind of look her up and
down to see if I see where she might have, put the
dodecahedron. just visibly, you're seeing that fee has a
Going to a character sheet you has because she has definitely a
backpack on of some sort and I didn't order it. and you would
guess most of if anything else is stored on her, it's just
Jordan pockets of her clothing or in in in pockets of her armor
backside you know give her a little nudge and see if she like
Jostles at all. She does not.
All right, well I'm gonna go through her bag and see if I can
find the Decca kedron stealthily, of course, Which I
actually wake her up. She's doing that.
Since I'm at the bar, I turned to the the ghoul bartender in
order to drinks. And it just word thusly flows
over to you. Takes a couple of that the empty
mugs from under the bar and put some on the top and takes a
tendril. And when you see it frothing
over with this brownish liquid, and then it heavy head, that's
been hoarding each one of those. And as you're doing that to your
hand, probably elbow deep in the sex, you're not feeling
anything. What you're what you're looking
for of? Am I oughtta at first?
And the two heads, Apparently attached to the same body but
each the size in total of a full person, stick their head inside
the door and yell. Hey we got some beers out here
and stick their head back out and one of the the floating gold
type creatures, grabs two, mugs and floats out there and you
hear them potentially serving the guessing.
So, I'm not finding it in the bag.
You are not, you can roll a perception for me if you want.
Yes. I bring the the other drank over
to revolve Myra take a sip of my own and kind of ask her if she
saw what was what happened in the the front door there?
The two-headed thing. Did you did you see that shit?
Yeah, it's not really oh importance.
To me. I'm looking for this
dodecahedron and you find Some something that seems like what
you're looking for by now, pull it out and eat in your hand.
You see the silk Stone again, the silks.
You done this whole process once before searching to Mario's bag
and you'd pulled out this deck on this, the same Solutions of
internal room. I called that.
Yeah. So you guys had heard Warren
over the torque requesting. The shadow Seekers Oh, this
mother is going to try to call us.
I don't fucking think so. Because didn't I?
Because I thought I had it. This sucks tone already.
Or is there multiple silk studs? Oh, I thought you put it back is
what you'd said you did, because you didn't really want that, you
were still looking for the Tribeca Hadrian.
Roderick meet me by the carriage with food and honey and I'll
show you something that you're interested in.
Three say that over the torque. I'm the one who pulled you out
of that motherfucking thing. So you owe me I thought I had
gotten one from the shadow realm as well.
You did yes. Correct.
So this is a different one, right everybody.
That was there pretty much had gotten one because it was the
only way to navigate the, the shadow realm for the most part.
Vollmar, you keep you keep you keep looking.
I'm gonna go see this asshole once out here by the carriage.
I made my way outside the bar. Are there any other pockets for
me to check? You haven't checked any of the
pockets is what I was guessing. It was assumed that something
that was all the backpack. Oh, okay.
Well I want to check the pockets.
Okay. Would you like me to roll again?
Yes, please. Let's check these pockets.
Any luck with the pockets is T your reach?
Wriggling around inside of her pockets.
And in you notice under her armor, there's a pocket that
you're trying to get to but you're having, you're struggling
a little bit, especially being her Dwarven size for your arm to
fit. In between it and the get into
the pocket. But the other Pockets that you
could reach that, you did not find anything of note, maybe a
couple copper pieces in a gold. So, what?
Not sure if you're taking those or not but let me know.
So, when I, when I exit the bar and I see these, these two
headed creatures to my right, what are they, what are they up
to? You see then basically.
There's a mug that each of them had, and the first one is still
getting it fulfilled, but the second one has already dumped it
into its very large mouth. And then is looking at the
bottom of it at this tiny little cup.
That's basically, they're holding with like a finger and
they just take a sharp Implement, they have in poke a
hole in the bottom of it and say really fill and they hold it
over their mouths. And the Ghostly figure floats up
top and just starts pumping this creature.
ER, full and they they noticed me or make any reaction towards
me when I walk out of the bar. The one that's closest to you
looked over when you came out of the door and it closed behind
you and it is Grunts and does seller to what its companion is
just kind of give them had not and raise my own drink, take a
swig of that. I make my way towards the the
carriage Okay. And as you're making your way
there, you notice the figure in a looks kind of the same shape
as Warren, but it is well coat and a top hat, and it has a
monocle acquainted. Then the one.
You remember? Good do.
I immediately like, is it? By mid.
Do I like as I get closer? Do I recognize it's worn in a
disguise or is it such that like, I'm I'm really not
noticing that it is Warren. Do I do I know do I know that
it's him as I approach them? Well, only perception, and a
deception. So, yours would be the
perception of Rubik and mornings.
Usually be the exception if you're trying to deceive and not
trying to do anything and just trying to see if your disguise
is working okay. Oh, well might as well.
Yeah, I know it doesn't work. Well, that's ways.
You're not perception, it's fine.
Wrong thing. It's fine, hiki.
CD sure. That was my prayer that was
actual person. P.m. it's up to you.
You're you're, you're not 100% sure.
Actually, even though he's now called your name and told me to
get over there this was like after he like he made like the
what the fuck are you wearing? Sort of face?
I would assume this would be on top of this now because you've
walked up and you see him and you sort of recognize him.
But now you are also questioning whether or not this is actually
him because he's been been away for a while.
This is hell and he's dressed very differently than you will
have to remember. So okay, so as I get close to my
kind of put a little quietly. Hello.
Hello sir. I'm looking for a friend here.
Well, I'm new in town. My name is Thomas Maxim, gray
the third. All right, you never know with
this place man. Once Where Have You Been dude?
Like the hell you pull me out of there and then you dipped on us?
What is going on here? Warren.
Who are we? What are we doing here?
Do you have anything sticky? That's what, that's what you
pull me out that sticky. Trust me, it's there's a bunch
of cash. I had hidden state.
If you want me to get it, I need something sir.
I don't. Doesn't as I'm searching my
backpack. I don't find anything
particularly Stu, no, no, dude. I don't, but volm Aires up,
she's in the bar, and she's got one of those on, one of our
trips, before he met you guys, she got one of those crazy bags,
maybe she has something. Okay.
Can you go back in time? I'm sure I'm sure.
That'll I'm sure. That'll get her attention.
I'll be I'll be back. I'll see what she says.
Who died. More fun or honey?
Can I give him? I give him a ration.
Have a couple of. I've got like 10 rations.
Can I just give him one? So yeah, I pitch him
irrationally. It's not it's not milk and
honey, but it'll do for now. I didn't teach make sure to take
a look here. Inventory, there of the total
and he tosses you. The ration.
I'm assuming you tear into it being almost two days without
food milk. Yes.
So I made my way towards the bar as I get to the doorway, take
another glance at the The two headed.
There are two of the to the two-headed guys.
That's what I'm saying. yep, the one that is distinctly a female
and one is not And they're just, they're just boasting to each
other. Now, about who can drink more
and trying to get the creepy, the ghostly bartender - so, as I
said, a moment ago through the doorway, they don't make.
I kind of like pausing clients over to make sure they don't
make any meal, take any like action towards me or anything
they don't, you know, react. All right.
So I'll, you know, I'll walk back in through the bar and try
to find out what Wil Myers doing.
What are you doing? Boomer, are you trying to take
medals? I'm off next to try and get to
that pocket that you couldn't get to.
I could just count on. I just kind of gave up on it at
the moment, okay? And I see Rebecca walk back and
I'm like, what the fuck you sells like, waiting for my
drink? You look on the floor beside
you. And there's your drink ft
unfocused, because Rubik and handed it to you before going
out. Yeah, so I say obviously I see
her do that and kind of just give her the come on.
Look Yeah, it's literally right in front of you, like, come on.
Okay, so I make. So I make sure before I say
anything, I can walk up a little closer to her and kind of, make
sure nobody's no glance around. Make sure nobody's kind of like,
listening in to us. I found one.
And he says he's got a lot of money.
But and I know that this is going to sound weird.
He needs something sticky. I don't know, it's Warren.
Okay. Like Yeah, touche.
Yeah, like come on. I haven't been with this group
long but long enough to know that it's Warren.
So damn right. It is you have anything sticky.
I know you've got that. He says he will find.
I have anything something. And I don't have anything
sticky. As you guys are talking, the
noble-looking dwarf. That was being amicable with you
guys before Taps, you on the shoulder ruvik, and you look
down at him and you turn around in the exes II.
Believe I had something about money and Slaughter everywhere
in this world. Goodness gracious, Piss.
Well, pain. Do you do you?
What are you looking to pay for Dickie?
I'm like you know what? I'm gonna go to the bar and I
walk up to the bar and asked the bartender they have any honey.
And it hovers there for a long moment, you're not even sure if
it's hurt you. And then it's not sweet.
Gapes. And then at the last Sweet.
It closes its mouth full. It's off into the back of you
here and then floats back out and you see a steaming cup of
something and sets it down on the bar with it's tangible,
right? Thank you.
I grab it. I walk over to River, not sure
what all that commotion was, but thanks.
So looking at it, does it look like I can?
Obviously like see the liquor. Does it look like viscous and
Something that would be what you know, sticky enough for what?
Does it look like come? That's it.
Doesn't look like it look like something that could be some
sort of adhesive. And you're smelling a party
sweetness from it, and it is steaming warm even in your
hands. You feel, as you're also holding
it back and forth, just to check its viscosity, as you said, it's
a kind of more than adequately sticks to the sides almost, as
if it doesn't want to move when you tilt it sideways, and then
it's really starts to move the more because now we're going to
leave Pull it up and see if it kind of leaves like a trailer,
like, kind of, like pulls up, like syrup.
It pulls up leaving a trail in the air as you do.
So as you dip your hands into this warm liquid, almost as a
little bit too hot to the touch oddly to, and it is stark white
and you're pulling it up and it holds its shape there, even as
you're holding it for a little bit, but it does start to slowly
come back down to into the car. And I kind of learned I kind of
after determining that this may This may do, this may do the
job. I kind of like flicking off my
fingers and give full my Renaud and kind of all kind of look at
the dwarf. And I think we got this one.
Figured out little sir, but I would like to talk later if you
don't mind. Oh, I will just so, you know
don't be ingesting any of that there and he goes over to his
stool. I almost think about asking him
why, but I kind of just take his word for it and kind of start
heading back towards Warren's way.
And if you could roll me a the I guess a sleight-of-hand to try
and get it off of you when you're shaking it off, okay?
I love them and you get the larger portion of it off but it
is still like leaving a good bit of residue and even some
coloration on your fingers and they're sticking together
slightly as you're holding holding it together.
But the doesn't so it's not coming off completely just by
shaking it. I almost almost go to lick it
off. Except I remember what the dwarf
said, and I just kind of like try to wipe it off on my I don't
know I guess Grieves and then if that doesn't work I just kind of
deal with it being on my hands. I'd like I said I'm just making
my way back to the carriage. Sir, it didn't really work.
It got a little bit of the coloration off but the tips of
your fingers are still or Clause.
I guess you would probably have claws before your fingers would
start from and your blue scales and stuff.
But that that whiteness is still do.
I notice around like because I'm, you know, obviously the
drinks here kind of make you feel a certain way.
Do I notice any sort of like feeling or anything from that
stuff being on my skin or on my My person at all or is it just
kind of sticky? Okay, cool.
I'll do it. No but now you just noticed that
it was sticky. all right, so and making my way back to Warren
with this cup of viscous material. and I kind of hand
kind of try to hand it over to him and asked him if this will
do. Yes, I say spell worry, I
touched it already. It doesn't seem to do any harm.
All right, I take half the handful of hair.
I have from cutting off and I stick it to my upper lip inform
it, using the liquid into it like a half a handle by Mars.
As he's doing this, I kind of drank the, the first drink that
I got the actual drank, the same one that I gave to vote Myra,
kind of looking at him, very confused.
Oh. And to describe some notes from
that one. You're getting a Nutty flavor
with these very carmely undertones from it.
It almost tastes like it was places to maybe help but the
drinks here Tempe pretty damn good.
Yes, I did say that out loud. Does he say that out loud?
Just don't ask where they come from.
Prior experience, trust me. And if you could roll the or and
a Deception. Sure. 94, you get either side on
and you're asking ruvik. Does it look good and you use
see that it is? Most certainly leaning to one
side. Crooked.
Not quite straight and there is definitely a definite noting of
that white liquid. That's drying on his lip and
you're guessing. It's got to be pretty
uncomfortable but it's peaking through.
Eat a good bit of the hairs. To what you see.
Rubik, I'm not sure if, you know, he he directly asked me if
that, if it looks good. Okay.
I'll see my kind of I look at
him cuz they're noticing the, the creek, the crookedness and
the the whiteness of the liquid kind of turn my head to the
side. Like yeah.
Yeah it's just it's pretty pretty solid actually.
And as you guys are kind of just standing around to, you know,
the the stench of the dead bodies is starting to become.
Oddly, palatable kind of sweet, liesecke but still not making
you barf anymore. And you're realizing to behind
the the hill that was there. That's now mostly deflated.
It seems like a large looking Temple off in the distance with
a door. And multiple large looking up
the hill odds and it's that we could thank you.
Thank you for the pain. Pass the hill.
Yeah. Yeah, that The Mists in such and
started to clear a little bit in that area too.
So what your why you're picking up on this?
You think, as he noticed as we noticed that and he turns
around, I'm guessing I form my goatee into three distinct
points with the same liquid, and then part my hair straight down
the center off to the sides, like a fucking.
I don't know if that's right, because that her style.
I have an amazing with the same with the same white liquid.
So, I'm assuming you were carrying the top hat now, or did
you put it back on top of that head?
I put it back on top of that. Oh gosh.
Okay. I try to make it look nice as
much as I can without a fucking mirror, and your straighten.
It a little bit and you realizing the hat is hardening
to your hair. oh, Yeah, I'll deal with this problem later
looking down in my hand and seeing the the white stain on
it. I concur Let's, let's move on.
Do you want the money? I mean, you definitely
definitely want to do the money soon, but All right, all right.
So we want to we want to tell her Myra or do we want to I did.
Did you tell her that? I hope she's not.
Is she out? Here we go.
What's the first thing? The first serve?
So, come on. What are you doing?
But my, I don't know. Damn it.
She is the one who got me out of that tree.
I guess I did. I say that out loud.
There's does he say that out loud?
Yeah I know and and I got to the 10 just holler at Valmeyer for
two seconds and we'll go so I run up just to the entrance of
the bar and poke my head in and try to find vole Myra.
And you see them, I were standing at the door.
Ready to go out anytime that you pooped poking your head and for
Myra money. Let's go.
What honey? So I'm going back out the door
and heading back to Warren's position, which I think is this
way. There he is.
I stopped. Yeah let's just say for a fact
the time I just had back to where I buried it.
Stashed the whatever, yep to the West there and you guys walk
into a thick of trees and Vines walk straight through it.
And you hear these bugs that are just gotta buy be ginormous
because their loudest Rock here and your Following worn through
this thick brush, basically. Okay.
So vile Maura, I know. He I know he looks different.
I know that just that I know the disguise but trust me.
It is worn. I'm in the wrong spot.
I hope it's not leading us into a trap.
I could tell. So we just hear loud bugs.
Yes. Very, very bad better.
Be worth it noxious. The bugs like approaching us
anything like trying to hope you can't see anything of movie here
than it seems like okay. And you're seeing Warren
standing over the chassis disease clean brush.
What? Shit, I'll explain later.
It gets better. And I open to the chest, the
ones with golden and, and inside is brimming with little Lord.
Yes, it's already out. I'm starting to put the funding.
Yeah, also load up your pockets. So, it's just all going in the
bag and the third chest, I found this and I opened a third chest.
Yeah. So at first, I don't even notice
that as I'm stuffing my back, my back pack with gold as well.
What's in the third one? Okay.
I am lucky gosh, inside of the third chest.
You see a singular key. That is normal sized.
Now, large box for such a small car, I've already touched it.
I'm fine. Except all right.
I try to try to grab it. Pick it up.
You're you go to grab just as you would a normal key with your
your finger in your thumb and it won't budge.
So you're struggling with just your fingers to even move it
slightly from the left or right that alone up out of this is not
normal. But I'll try to, I'll try to
like brass pit-hole handle a like, obviously.
I'll try to you more more Force to try to try to lift.
You just try to see what it's going to say, to get it out of
the box. Strength, check for me.
And you lean down grabbing it with both with one hand because
you can't really get both hands around.
I guess you can tell you get it off the ground or it out of the
box a little bit even and you're pulling with most of your
strength to get it out of there as if it weighed as much as all
the gold that you just bend platinum and silver.
And so I cam lives in such that you've been piling into the your
bag in the palm of your hand. Yes.
Yes, it was. Yeah, it's like a look here and
hold you know that you have with this case thing, okay.
My shit, wouldn't you? If this is the key, what kind of
door doesn't open and then I go to Guess I guess, I go place it
back in the box, but not a try not to not to drop.
No, no, no, put it, put it in the bag, will not weigh down the
bag. Is that not how it works?
In the bag. Okay.
Elmyra if you would put it in the bag, all right, and then I
go to let place the the key into the bag and Let It Drop in
there. And it sails off into the
Blackness of the bag out, even know with.
Okay. So yeah where the hell have you
been have to explain where all the shit came from?
Where you go you don't need to know yeah you do it explains
everything else doing you got a quite a want to know because
there's a lot of doors in town and it kind of relates to them.
Well Myra the dwarves are the ones with the Mech monster.
Maybe we should Try to figure this out.
So I kind of rub the dwarves after I got most of them drunk.
Okay, I got both of those chest. I also might have killed one and
he might have saw me and they do come back in this layer of hell.
I've heard that explains the yes, get out of here.
Yes, it out of this layer of Hell before becoming cursed the
Slayer hell forever. I know you still need me.
Why we need the dodecahedron? God damn it.
Didn't we just do that? So from this Island, I no longer
war in in Leith. Nice layer of hell.
I am Tom, not from grades heard Thomas, a cheery businessman.
Oh hello Thomas. Nice to meet you very well.
Okay. So yeah, let's get the fuck out
of here. Maybe did I see the door?
Did only ruvik see the door? Oh, both you and Ruth a Cantina
door. There is that door on the hill
that we have for the miss, the Mist, the missed, be on the
mound monster has cleared. There's some sort of structure
behind it. Big door.
We have there's big door and we have heavy key list.
We have not sure. Now, you will get to the mech
monster war on. I promise, it's Mick, Mars Novo
Myra. It's in a different okay, I I
start describing, I saw on the dock is that the McMaster I
don't know. Josh.
What was what your descriptors? I don't know.
You didn't give me any descriptors, a giant metal
thing. A giant metal human, it looked
like a mountain at first that's that's friends.
Probably the same thing because it's pretty close to we try.
We tried to fight that thing. Didn't go very well.
Yeah, well, so which way is the know.
You are none. We killed at least four on the
docks. After you, after you want to
know we're looking for you. They were trying to rescue you
before you have the dodecahedron lunch.
Yeah. You're trying to rest.
Trying to get out of here. We thought you'd rather Clinton
our lives at risk. Wait, do you have the
dodecahedron? I give him the stink eye.
I don't think so. I thought you have the
dodecahedron. What's your name?
I can't think. I thought.
Muriel, Muriel, soulless Muriel. Oh my God, I'm pretty solid
apparently. We searched Muriel twice where
she's the one who was trying to figure it out.
Perhaps maybe I should search Griselda.
Perhaps we should. I've been asking her to take a
look at it and she still wouldn't let me so griselda's at
the bar Griselda. Yes.
Well, it she's past perhaps, we should head back to the bar.
Take stock of all of this treasure, their happens.
So-so. So when you say that's ours, do
you mean that it's right here, it's right here.
My name's Maura so agreed. Yeah, gold gold is us and then
So, how did you kill for them? They're not trying to bash your
face. Well, they they did pull out
their big, shiny mountain man, who tried to kill us, but we
like, Rebrand back to the bar. So I imagine if they see it,
they, if those dwarfs see us, but the dwarves of the bar
really aren't that hostile. Are they?
It seems like they're not the same, the dorms at the bar, have
a good amount of knowledge about the dwarves at the Docks.
One of the reasons. One of the reasons I wanted to
head back to the bar was to talk about this, talk to the Royal,
dwarf guy. Can't remember his name about,
see if we can get some info on that big machine, man.
Thing at the Docks. Try to figure out how to bring
that thing down. If we're gonna, if that's what
we want to do, now I bet I mean if you if anybody knows he
probably would so then there's that Temple to the Northeast and
with I think we should all go check the temp Square them.
See it's where the big door is the temple.
What Temple the door thing? Yeah, you know, where we where
you started? Fighting that giant plant
monster. Yeah, there's like a path.
A path beyond the plant monster. Yes, I did not realize there was
path beyond the plant monster. It's that way, I think Mama, I'm
gonna go. I'm in, agreeance with that one
as well. I like this plan.
I'm intrigued, I'm intrigued by this master.
We are agreed again, to the temple.
Books. I mean, it's money is a powerful
motivator. There's tea.
Josh, is there a way you would like us to?
I guess calculate. How much Money.
We just came up on or is that something we wanted there?
A and I you just counting skill to judge.
I did just roll a good bit for it but if you felt like counting
it, but I was guessing too. Because yeah, of the
descriptions. I was having you guys are just
tossing it or not. It was because I was envisioning
ruvik literally using his big Paul's and shoveling gold into
his backpack. Like not really counting or
anything like that at all. We did empty the chest and there
was nothing else like of significance.
In them where they're. Nope.
All right. wow, this is just what I could get out how much
more It will have to come back. There was a room full of chest
that were five. Hive, one of them had that all
Chi, well, let's check out this, this town.
We've heard a pissed-off, these steal a couple more chess
Natural 20 on a copy. I know exactly.
Where is the amount of plumies that you have made it a skill
because he we you can make anything a skill that you want
to make the first one. And the first time that you make
a skill as his partner. I remember.
I remember you talking about that I just Kind of forgot about
that for a second. No worries.
Yeah so if you if there's any skills skills that you want to?
Yeah. Okay.
Okay.
I would also say that your accounting would have increased
by 1 this particular time. Okay?
So just forsakes of what we're talking about.
I imagine warned, you said something along the lines of,
well, based on the density of the box and how wet much they
weighed in their size of the box and the color about proportions
of what percentage was gold, rubies, and silver, and all that
stuff. We have exactly spit out words.
And I will enter that into chat so that you guys can divvy that
into your inventory. Says you'll probably have like
two thirds of it in the bag of holding.
Yeah. Prove.
It has a third of it and I already asked actually carry it
and I actually have just disappears it and I already have
all the ones I can carry. I'm sure.
That's okay. 453 copper so I can just trying to get it all.
I trying to get us all in the bag of holding And you're noting
too that these marks on these coins, are of a age that has
passed because these are some coins that are loaded longer in
circulation on Tarth to any of your knowledge ease.
They have in a long-dead ancient and brush.
Just a quick question numbers that you put in the chat is that
but we each came up on like or is that total just just making
sure. That was total.
Sorry, well it's not I was using a thousand sided die to come up
with those. This picture that I pick up all
the, all the Platinum It would seem for the most part.
So they're well, there's probably let me do this one.
I forget to roll for that one actually.
Oops, that was wrong one. Yeah, 68 more.
That would be 68. Platinum, 68 Platinum.
And one heavy key? Yeah.
Yes. Which was definitely already
putting wolf bag of holding. I think you got that, right?
Yeah. For my roof.
My best. Is it gold?
The key itself seems to be what like, what does the key look
like made out of this murky? Brown metal almost the same
color as the water that is sloshing around out in the mire
to the north where the dwarves are from.
Fifth. I will call her win.
There's no like inscriptions on the, the key or anything.
It's not seem so on the end of it though, as you were holding
it last two and you kind of looking at it, it would have
seemed to be an odd spider web of of a shape that you couldn't
really distinguish. When you were, you know, just
holding it was on the the handle.
Now, the handle end, obviously. And I just Reminiscing on that
idea, okay? Yeah, it is.
And the end of the key is designed simply a similar to a
spider web. Yes, the head.
Yeah, the handle end, but the handle end of the key or like
the other may be something to look for once we get to the
store. Yeah.
Okay. So I outside of game contacts.
I put that all of the copper gold platinum and the the key I
have that all in my inventory as in the bag of holding just so
that we don't vote like two people market.
So do we have double There's my lock-picking and bondage go up
because I did all that stuff was quite unlike the Twilight
country. No, I do not think that one
you'd rolled a natural 20 on so it did not go up.
All right, that's how I was going to roll with that if you
will. Hey, Josh kind of piggybacking
on what? I think it looks like.
Good. I was just I was just going to
say it. Looks like no matter.
You're standing there alone in the in the bug infested to
mangroves currently. I very much am.
Yeah, yeah. I was busy organizing my packs.
I assumed you would actually been doing that wild or just
kind of fall on behind me. What was the question real
quick? Got me thinking about something
else. I forgot about my question.
No no it's all good. I mean we're you know trying to
get you know a little bit of Polish guy stuff clarified.
I just yeah I'll let you know if I remember damn.
Oh no. I remember just piggybacking off
of what may be said. So we don't get a like double
record. The treasure we get just got to
do you think it would be better if we I know it's probably like
a player decision but just for like Keeping tabs on how much
we've got you know put it all in the bag of holding as opposed to
it like some of the being in my pack thing.
Get that. That's yeah, that's was getting
it. Yeah I mean if you wanted to
have something yourself. Yeah let's let whenever you know
obviously when we get back in game I'm gonna do that just so
it doesn't get double recorded. So I that.
Yeah, that was, that was my question.
Okay. Oh yeah yeah that would be
definitely a player is decision because I mean you did just meet
all these people. So you mean you know you were
promised money and maybe to make sense for you to ask a certain
amount for a certain sum of that?
Ready? That you guys just got?
Yeah. If you want like a certain
amount but can I trust you both are subtracted from just with
the bag. Of course, you can.
Or she can also make out what she's found me while wandering
off from the group in the first place.
I told me that you don't know that.
Did I did say that you've gotten lost from the?
Yeah. Yeah.
I got lost. All right.
As I slip off the backpack and go to put the treasure that's in
there in her bag of holding, but I look at her and kind of like,
give her the look like it's not get lost again.
So I put what treasure I shoveled in a backpack.
I put in the bag of holding on the bag of holding.
Okay, so it's all in the bag of holding right now that we've got
that settled and I'm not encumbered by a bunch of gold
coins. Let's go to this door onward.
Or new with us? Yeah, still already at the door.
I don't see where he's at. Okay, I see it now.
He's like right where I am. As you near the creatures that
are eating on these corpses do move away from you as if just
one more very shy they wash this kill a bunch of stuff.
The long-necked man. It seems so long ago.
We first dead people eating. Furry creatures.
Oh, this is not good and you guys walk up to the large Stone
Temple and crusted with growing vines all across it and Moss and
a big stone door. Slightly recessed.
In the arched entry of these Stone will work to Stone.
You're guessing, it's actually some sort of door.
And work truly magnificent as a v finestone craftsmanship.
Oh, I would like to investigate this store to see if I can find
any like Engravings check for any traps and there's any like
keyholes. And this door as you're just
looking at it, you see. Is also a stone.
You're not sure how thick from this side of the door obviously.
And in and it is blatantly obvious that there are four
slots for four separate Keys. It's appears like on the face.
This one each one, having some sort of symbol underneath of
that the the slot that they the key hole is Porky so.
Okay, so Warren. I think I think we need for
keys. There are more chest.
Not one, or so, you say, Maybe we need to actually, I'm going
to reach into the bag of holding and try to pull out the key.
Strength check and what is your regular strength?
Plus one. Okay, you wouldn't be
disadvantaged but you can't pull it out of the bag, you're
finding is your shoulder deep and you you're pretty sure that
you've got the key but you just can't pull it out through that.
Could you put this game guys? I suppose.
Allow me. With a chuckle reach into the
bag and try to find the key. You've got it plus 5 off of it
so go ahead and roll me that strong kick.
I might do it. You learning from your past
experience, grab the key in your full hand, not just slightly and
Wrench It Out of the SEC, putting the lattice lately
off-balance to in the process of the weight.
Even though it's it wasn't filled with in the SEC as it was
coming out of a sec. It almost felt as if the key
itself was was in for hammer for a Went okay.
Looking around a check, check back I check back at the key to
kind of make sure, you know, you know take a second.
Look at the symbol on the back of the key.
Do I notice like looking around on the the face of the wall, the
door if that symbol is anywhere? you notice that the symbol
coincides directly with the the Keyhole on the top, and these
key holes are or oriented one at the top.
One at the left, one at the right and one at the bottom.
Now again, the one at the top has these, this spiderweb
looking symbol that you can see on it.
But as you're looking closer and as if you can kind of see some
features of is that is that a drawer if perhaps actually as
you're looking closer at it. Now, it's very abstract if it is
but you can kind of see some Some of the features of
something like a door spider web.
Yep. Sims seems like this key would
go in the top one. Can I can I reach it?
Is it too high for me to actually reach and try to get
the the key into the keyhole? You would have to hold the key
above your head and you're not sure how to do that. 111, heard
water for a minute, ask him if he could help me out.
Okay. Yeah, give me a give me a hand
with this one. Those who only are they?
What am I wrong? That's fine.
Not a strength again. And you're rolling saves.
If you haven't noticed, I will allow for the second but it's
the checks that I'm asking for its, if you go to just work the
top. Yeah.
We're that were. You see the plus five x 0, and
click on that? Be my bad.
They line up or zonal now. No worries.
It's just, you're learning the difference between a chicken
Switch. Yeah.
Oh yes. Which looks like it.
That one specifically does look like for you.
So calm down there, not me. Okay.
Well, then you lift up the key start to anyways without
warrants help and get it to just about in your shoulders.
And you're pushing with your legs as Warren helps.
You the rest of the way into the slot and as you guys are leaning
over and up with the key in it, slides in no problem.
Ready, hell? And they're, they're here a
resounding. Yeah, I was gonna ask the same
thing. Does it twist?
And if you guys are trying that then you go off the same.
Same ones there and you. Try to the left.
Doesn't quite want to turn. Try to the right.
It doesn't want to turn. Harper is there like we need
What was your question? One is there like a pronounced?
And like, you know how like he's have like those like ends that
are like or kind of like Clover shaped holes in them?
Yes, yeah, the end of that, you guys are turning on is the shape
that I was talking about. It's kind of like a got a spider
web shape with like a dwarfs face in the middle, I see.
So it's probably was wondering if maybe we could tie something
to it and use body weight but I don't think that would work
maybe I need all my are you want to get on my shoulders and see
if we can? All three of us?
Try to move this thing. I'm going to.
Give it a shot, but I'm pretty convinced that we're going to
need all four. All right, do we need to roll
another strength? Yep.
That's you guys know when you know, we're here.
All of us. Uh-huh.
Yeah, I suppose not helping. Neither.
Am I. What?
So this time around We all just hang there.
I was trying to get Thomas's mind name in my head too because
I'll have to remember that for the future technically but also
I guess Warren ruvik and vomiting you're all pushing on
it really hard remove if you're just below Warren and off to the
right of the ladder because I believe extra weight against
each other. Yeah I'm looking for can one I
believe ruvik because Oh, my bad.
Yeah yeah. I was thinking warning was for
some reason for in Islam is huge, right?
Frederick is very tall, that's why I was getting okay.
Yeah, mom is Giant. And I know from Adam you're
pretty like 59. Yeah, average height as was
guessing to so scratch. That what do you think you're
hovering over the other two and trying to twist from the top
side of this kyi? The other two are pushing and
pulling respectively on the bottom side of the key.
And you your hand slips, actually on the key as you're
trying to push for Tuvok. And you as it slips, you say Add
your arm into the wall and try to catch yourself and just fall.
Sorry, companions, flat. Can I try to catch him?
Yeah, told you, we need the other three keys.
That's like 20, only obvious like true that.
Ban the fucking dice. Tonight, we're gonna where I can
see the perhaps, you're right. Maybe we need all four.
Of course, I'm right. Put this key back in this bag,
we want you want to actually roll me a strength, save in this
particular case, Warren and the matter.
Not not to someone that natural 20 but that's fine.
The the you were my idol crushed.
Get bumped more. So actually from as he's
falling, is one arm. You, he catches you on the
shoulder, trying to catch himself and you get pushed down
to the ground as Warren. Catches him from falling.
All the way on top of you though.
By the advise others. Shoulder.
Okay. I like stand up and like brush
my knees off, just like super irritated.
Like, guys, we need the other three keys.
I do think that we do need to unlock the other locks turn that
one, but let me just try this real quick.
I'm going to lock pick the bottom of this one or try to.
that is actually not a bad idea and I'm going to try to lock
pick the The end, I'm the one on the left.
If you want to make that lock-picking skills because I
know that you're quite locked Vicki from Myra, I just thought
that hand was my lock pick. It is usually, that is what the
usual regular one is. But if you did want to make a
distilled, specifically, you're welcome to do so and make it a
plus ten for this particular case before the next time.
Okay, yeah. Okay.
Which is because my sleight of hand is actually better than my
luck. By a way as well, not by Ways,
by one, I think what happens is to that, then you will level.
And when you do that, if you're, if I'm, if you're not keeping up
with one in particular skill like that, then you will end up.
It'll end up falling behind, whereas they're leveling will
pick up like your sleight of hand.
You know what I mean? Well, I think what happened was.
I had a really good slide of hand and stealth to begin with,
but then I got one of those like things.
I was like, you get Pick two skills that you're like double
like expert in. Right, right, right.
And I pick those two. So now, instead of being at 5,
I'm at 9 or whatever. Okay, so for one more setting
up, our skills are skills. Do you want to suggest do like
an override stat? You mean for the plus pluses and
minuses? I could do an expertise.
Yeah, and you're gaining an expertise in his guilt is what I
would call it too. That's what I was going.
I guess I can do it. I can do a miscellaneous bonus,
which is what would get it up to a ten?
They do. I, I think I did, I based a
skill off of what it would have been.
So, like it, tell Hodgins for accounting dextra, lockpick text
rabbana, ya, and then I was like, and then I would use the
override to make it go up. If I see ya.
Oh, that's actually not a bad plan then to because then it'll
still be affected when you get leveled.
This put what I was thinking about.
What? Yeah, well, I'm sorry I have to
play with it. Yeah, that's fine.
Either which way you got a 21:28 and Thomas Maxim.
Gray the third. You got a 17, And you're, you're
standing there both of you. With these tiny little picks
going into the lock that you're realizing.
When you put inside over the locking mechanism, you can
barely see the lock picks as if they'd gained an extra Dimension
inside of it. And they're super tiny for some
reason inside, and you can peel the sides of the walls.
At first, I just start like, putting the lock pick tools like
in and out, like Watching them get smaller.
I was like, whoa, this guy's you see this.
I'm not sure if your traditional methods of this is crazy.
Making entry is gonna work on this one, guys.
Thievery is going to work. Three more keen.
All right, all right, all right, comment.
Who are these other chests are so we can get these keys.
So actually, I was about to ask. If you think all the keys are
going to be in that room. Only one way to find out this is
true and there's definitely more shit there.
That I would like to acquire. Do you, did you ever roll me in
a investigation on the other parts of the door because I
think you wanted to investigate it vibrate I did but I did, but
you're just kind of described what was on the door.
So, I just assumed. I guess I will do a quick
glance, but I mean II was intending to do an investigation
of the door. I didn't do anything for my, I
didn't notice. So, yeah, Warren, you're looking
at it, and you go and door keys symbols, okay.
It's got 13 more. Mmm.
And the other ones, A spider, would I be looking thing?
Simple to would have invited as you're looking at the spiderweb,
symbols on each of the other ones, as isn't as, with the
first one. The oh, so there was it symbols
on each of them dwarf in the center of it, the other ones
have other things, the to the one off, to the left, and right,
both seem to have some sort of slumped triangle with a circle
and then it clicks, it's a witch Has hacked off to the left and
right. And then on the bottom, there
are two circles. And then on the bottom, there
are two circles with the kind of lumpy circles you think.
And then with like it was oh maybe there's some definition of
an eye and 00, two heads on the bottom one.
Inside of the spider web. Probably something good behind
natural. For notice, I know I will.
Yes, the biggest heaviest or hey.
So we ran also know this born smart.
What? A barbarian.
Yes, you know. It's the thought of all the gold
we already had his rush to meet ordering.
Yeah. No, no, no.
It's I don't know if he if you know this.
I have a magic golden chest idea that senses.
I wish I didn't know that. That's what that swoosh.
It was. No.
I know, I knew you had a breastplate.
I didn't know that's what that sensation was.
Yep. Yeah, so that's good information
to have. I have, I have gold are It's
all. It's all coming together.
Warren. It's all coming together.
I love it. When I don't know if I can
Straight Rubik. Wait till you meet Dean who da
fuck is very well. I don't know that either.
That's amazing. Damn it.
The fuck is this? I'm sure he'll come back at some
point. Well, fuck.
All right, we've been standing outside the store for too long.
We need to take cover be stealthy.
Go back to normal business. Yes.
Quite before we eat it's for we make off again.
So I'm gonna go back to the bar. What is the state of my hair in
my mustache and my goatee after being Fallout fallen on by
ruvik? The mustache was a little little
out of whack, as you as you're feeling to either side of it,
I'm assuming you're kind of pushing the crunchy.
B back into into shape look. But it is very hard.
No. Wait, guys.
Do we take the key back or do we leave it in the door?
I do remember, treating the key. Oh someone should someone should
retrieve the key and put it back in the we are in hell damn it.
We shouldn't let anyone know what we're up to.
That my friend is a story We W drinks.
I do need the bag, though. Volvo Myra.
Okay. So I'm going to go up When I go
up and try to pull the key out with both hands in the back, put
the key in the bag, buddy in the back.
All right, go ahead for all these strengths check, drink
these drinks. Drink.
I guess I'll help him. As you're going up to help him,
the motor was holding the sack under the bag, under the, under
the key, and your hand just about touches it.
When he leans back in it, slides right out, and he'd let go and
it falls right into the sack. Most painless, wait drinks.
I need a drink drinks also, look at Warren drinks.
Yes, I need a drink Thomas drinks.
Especially around doors on my name's Thomas, Thomas.
Hahaha. I was never the best.
I was never the best liar. We're gonna have a great time.
Yep. All right.
You guys wade back through some of the swampy bits and bodies
stupid round to creature. Yep.
What do you think one of its tentacles as he walked by?
You've awoken it. Well, it does not seem to react.
Its tentacle. Actually seems to be mostly
decaying though. You do see a hole into the
center of the mound? That's been deformed, like I
mentioned before. It's kind of sunk in, and
there's some sort of recess all the way back into the center of
the Earth where it was before. I go back to the bar, I'm going
to try to take a closer look inside.
Is there anything I can lick? Is it just like Completely dark
in there. Yeah.
Oh yeah, the inside of it. Is more more or less dark.
But if you're leaning down and taking a closer look, as you
said inside of that were one of the tentacles was coming out,
that's kind of flattened. Now, it seems like some of the
liquids or whatever was inside of it.
It's man gone away. You're seeing and dull glowing
inside of the mound. I want to read you reach out and
grab it light. You go up shoulder deep in this
muck and you're kind of searching around inside and you
don't feel anything other than goop up to where you're at.
I'm shoulder deep already. Aha.
This thing is reminding is huge. 5, 10, 15 20, 25, 30, still see
the light if you would, like some help.
When you pull your arm back out, it's actually a little bit
brighter and seems to be coming. Almost directly from the center
mass of this creature to your kind of gauging by looking in
it. And then looking at the like the
light is coming from Is that like a judgment?
I can make without digging from the top down or other methods
that you can think of yes. Yeah, I'm yeah.
I'm going to make my way towards the bar, and when I see Assuming
is what you have when I see worn outside.
The the front door, I'm going to, you know, let him know what
I saw. Obviously my arms covered in
goop. So like, hey, hey men, like no,
we need a drink, but I just saw something really, really
interesting. Not sure we may want to check
this out. See what's, what's going on
here? Maybe man.
It's it's shiny. Interesting is invaluable.
Yeah I thought it would be That's good enough for me,
inside the big Mound creature, we kill, or is it that you let
us fight without helping by the way?
So there's after you pull me out.
That's yeah, I haven't forgotten.
Pulled you out. And you.
That was a lot of money in without leaving you.
I would not. Yeah.
That's why I'm letting you know about this, this could be good
too. Make my way back to where I have
my arm in there. So check this out, dude.
I don't know what it is. What it's like. first of all,
you lookin where were the kids gesturing, Thomas and you see a
bluing soft glow fight? That is deep in the center of
the mound. I take off my top hat and I take
off my jacket. You cannot remove the top hat
and realize about the Jack comes off.
Hmm, that's not good. In the pocket.
Jump headfirst with the top hat leading the way you swim through
this murky muck holding your breath and closing your eyes.
Just do not get any of it. And anything and you're swimming
forward, you know, stroking with your hands forward and kicking
with your feet backwards and you get Two or three, good Strokes
in before your mom for me to reach.
I'm not. At that point, I would say yes
but you see anymore and disappeared quickly into the
muck. It was absent from your
perspective, don't even see a lovely way to go.
After his high, try to reach in a little bit deeper and I did
before kind of getting face and chest in there to see if I can
reach at least an egg. Eagle foot anything and you grab
like what you think is a you're grabbing for anyways and you
feel a little bit of kicking or rather maybe it's kicking and
you lean even more in in. You're probably about halfway up
your torso before you can kind of Kill the last little kicks of
Warren. There.
Are you doing anything one while you're inside of the grabbing
the key or whatever key? Yeah, whatever.
It's in there and you ask your top hat, hit this hard solid
object. You take both of your arms to
wrap around something that's about this.
It's rough kind of Feels like Stone and it's the size of your
entire torso. But you wrap both arms around it
before you start kicking. In the opposite direction you
were before and ruvik. You feel the slightest bit of
something coming back into your grasp immediately focusing on
your breath and close. Emotional feelings, living with
no, trying to sell you waste. Lots of what I feel kicking
around down there and trying to eventually get a hold of it, so
I can try to pull them up or pull, grab the yellow.
Well, strength, check. Gorilla strength.
No. Just with Advantage, though.
Arabic. So you grasp onto something
solid, you can tell it does give a little bit under your grasp
and then your second hand on you think shoulder and you start
pulling out and you fall backwards with Warren, on top of
you. And the had the still like it
and pull the head off at the, like, Bassam to his head.
Awesome. Correct.
There was a from your end Warren.
It felt like your hair was going to come out for a second but
they've attached. We took a little three damage
from you crazy. Crazy bastard.
Being pulled out by your top hat.
Wow. And inside of warms clutches is
what appears to be a softly glowing.
Rough Cuts ass fire the size of a as I described morons torso.
All right, so look, good 3 ft in diameter with it.
That's a don't know how we're gonna keep this one to
ourselves. Well, I definitely I reach out
my my fist for a fist bump or some sort of acknowledgement
handshake. I would but I'm currently
carrying so fire. Are we taking this now?
The cart, I don't know. Maybe sure.
I don't think it would fit in one of the, the chest, so we can
rebury it. Figure out what to do with it
later. Anything that would be safer.
Chester still there. Josh.
What you asking me for? Would it fit in one of the
chests? 000.
Fairly certain it would fairly certain.
From Myra, by the way, when you would walk back towards the end,
the two large individuals. With two heads, were passed out
against the wall in their seats. While they're the, the seats.
The wooden seats under them were groaning.
They had the regular size seats one under each butt cheek, and
propped up against the wall snoring, softly.
Nice. I just felt real coholic to this
party. Yeah.
I know. Feel like I do.
I don't think I know about it. I'm pretty sure you were there.
I think so, I guess we're going to Hash this giant Sapphire.
And well, you guys are doing that.
Well, my the ghostly bartender. Pulls out a flagon.
Sets it on the bar and starts filling it up for you upon your
request with the similar drink that you would have.
Before, you know, I've been forgetting to ask you to roll
concentrate. I didn't know what a
constitution for the drink. 21.
You don't even feel a burn or the any, any tips and ascertain,
I feel relieved, because how is also reaching my point, you do
feel relaxed? Yes from the day that's been so
much richer interior has been a little long since I've had it.
You were not so mad at Warren and I are trying to slide this
huge Rock in one of the trunks. so, Seems to fit.
I guess we can bury it right. Sounds like a plan.
Slammed the door. Shut and start.
Yeah. Shoveling dirt on top.
One held. Oh, they're only take.
What are we doing with? Oh, I'm sorry.
I must have missed that part for some reason, I thought they were
like kind of in a hole in the ground.
When you check the boat back out, you're looking around for
something to one of the paddles that you are using previously is
left on the shore. How work?
Let's see if I got anything in my backpack and can take turns.
And so here I don't think that I do.
Unless you have a shovel. Do you have?
Remind me, next time we see a shop somewhere to buy stuff like
matches man. Warren, we just stole or you
just stole so much gold, man. He can and get brand new gear
and all kinds of I got you least I could do is remind you I
suppose I have a mess kit. That's got the 10 Baht.
Well it's got the tin box that you know once I can be used as a
cooking pan could, I kind of like use that as a makeshift
like Half shovel to help like scrape away, dirt.
As he's using the paddle from the boat.
Yeah. Yeah, you could but you're
looking at it and wondering if it would just be easier to take
turns Right. It's we're kind of just, I
suppose, I suppose, I'll take first shift on the digging the
war and I put the up, I put the mask it back together, realizing
it's not going to work. Yeah, and I start start
shoveling away. I hand him the paddle.
Shovel, the pep shovel battling a little Bubble.
That would be the Athletics unless you want to start Ricky,
get digging sleep. They all work on.
I'm sure it would be come in handy for burying the bodies.
I don't have your heat on the dice tonight.
Hey, that's my second that we want to go sit with another
natural one. Oh, no.
So you take the paddle that you and after take it after, it's
been taking its beating apparently from Warren's,
escaping you, shove it into the mostly loose wet ground. and
kind of ruins the boat, we need a new paddle for the, the next
height of Oh no. The boat looking on and you look
out to where Warren, was that Thomas?
A correction was quite. It's talking about and you see
detritus left from a boat that's mostly sucking the water.
All right? Then.
I mean I guess we could just cover it with a foliage.
I would have three chests covers, maybe are enough.
No we throw the to chest into the water and leave the one.
Hey deception. You think you got it fully?
Well covered. You don't even see their comfort
level and empty chests. Rome in the water.
I need a bath. You are very much ahead and
Google that lettuce for that then and yeah, Warren you're
quite stinky to the this is the revenge for not having to swim
through the poop River. You get both chests into the
water and you shove them off as they seem to actually float
towards the North and as their kind of settling down, you see
them satisfied with that result? I'm a Gateway back to the bar
Johnson time for a drink. Making notes, maybe I can't make
notes on jigen later. Well, I think it's about that
time for me. Yep.
I think that was a good ending point.
You guys have all made it back to the bar.
The bartender is the ghostly figure that you're seeing there
and it just kind of hurts you with water.
And you see it's not, maybe not, but I just thought that just
popped in my head and it would be the one, the one actually
behind the barn doesn't respond quite like with anything that
you would expect. And then the one that is closer
to you next to the post and Vampira drops its jaw, even
farther and floats toward you. As if to engulf you.
Never mind. Never mind.
Cool, eight. And it stopped right in front of
you just in inches before your face, and you see into this
pink, massive void of nothingness inside of the
creature, we get, we get them back for one minute.
That's not terrified at all. It was well, it's going to get
that dumbest proving from Ida was lovely.
Unfortunately, I will not be here next session.
Well, be next next session, 28. Yeah, I mean, the next session,
man, Apollo's. I shall be in the Perry.
Whoo apart. So I will not hide make it will
part of Paris Paris, just going to be going around in it.
Yeah, I think we're staying. Oh I don't remember or saying
like so like southeast of like the center.
Okay, well that's definitely been an amazing session
physically profitable that's been in here.
And I think oh yeah get up and go to work tomorrow.
Oh yeah, I'm a little bummed. I'm going to miss the next
session because I totally want to be in on like being super.
Still gonna have to explain the door though.
Not telling everyone what happened.
Also going to have to follow me. They don't have to know about
the door. Sign warning, / Thomas a
character token in the meantime. Oh yeah.
Alright, the top hat. Yeah, yes.
Yes, indeed. Just get a good an icon of the
Monopoly man. We're going to rise a great
time. Yep.
Oh yeah. Night y'all.
Yeah this is awesome. Great to hear everyone again to
it. Yeah.
