That's the key. 36 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,160 So, room care Warm Saga Remastered. 37 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,560 This is the Remastered room care warm Saga. 38 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,360 So what? Tell us what that means. 39 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,360 Tell us what's going on with this project. 40 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:11,800 Sure. Yeah. 41 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,120 So. The original room care and core 42 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,240 rules came out in 2021, now I think. 43 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,640 And that was just a Zine, just the introductory rules and 44 00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:25,480 nothing else. And then I slowly added to it 45 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,600 introductory adventure and then advanced rules. 46 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:36,520 So ruined Cairns, A Norse fantasy souls like TTRPG. 47 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,400 So it's heavily inspired by Dark Souls but set in a Norse fantasy 48 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,600 universe. So Warden Saga was a collection 49 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:50,240 of the three zines into hardback and a paperback and then this is 50 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,120 me. Remastering that version with 51 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:57,640 new or with like updated art with a new layout brought in 52 00:02:57,640 --> 00:03:00,280 some new rules from the beast Cherry. 53 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:05,240 So aligning the the two, the two books together and then there's 54 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,600 going to be a a kick ass new cover from Chrome. 55 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:11,480 So it's it's basically refresh. It's not a total rewrite of the 56 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,400 rules, it's just tightening up some rule, some mechanics, 57 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,480 fixing some wording, some errors, that sort of thing, and 58 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,920 then giving it a fresh new coat of paint. 59 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,160 Nice. And that's why it's remastered. 60 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,560 Not like Gordon Saga 2 E or something. 61 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,200 Exactly, Yeah. So it's it's, it's all the same 62 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:33,600 rules, just bit bit of clarification and then just, 63 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,240 yeah, with a refresh, gotcha. Fantastic. 64 00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:41,560 Are we actually? So you sent me, you sent me a 65 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,840 little something. Speaking of Speaking of that, 66 00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:45,920 did you want me to to show that off a little bit? 67 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,520 Yeah, sure. So this is a an exclusive reveal 68 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:54,200 of the Work in progress cover from Chrome, who's an amazing 69 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:58,680 artist based out of London. He did the cover of the original 70 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,560 Room Care and Warden Saga. Oh, so he sent me. 71 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,640 Yeah, it's it's really kick ass. So we sent through the sketch 72 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,640 and reworking that into into the cover itself. 73 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,920 So I can't wait to see the the final result and I think it's 74 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,519 it's yeah, it's gonna kick as much ass as the original did. 75 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,040 Yeah. Yeah, the original cover is 76 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,440 like, yeah, I really, really, truly like the original cover. 77 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,960 But yeah, this looks like a really cool sketch, so I'd see 78 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,560 it, yeah. No, it's killer. 79 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:34,120 I mean, and it's so I I actually have a draft of the the new one, 80 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:35,800 which is fantastic. Thank you for letting me get a 81 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,560 peek at that. So is this going to sit into 82 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,200 that same kind of color scheme that I can see that no one else 83 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,680 can see right now or? Potentially depends on what the 84 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:49,360 final cover or the final colors are like, but the so I wanted to 85 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,960 so with the beast area cover for instance, it's like a simple 86 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,680 color scheme with just the the figure. 87 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,720 So depending on on what the final cover looks like, it might 88 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,440 be similar to this with a like a blue color scheme instead of the 89 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,920 red. Yeah, it's. 90 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,280 And I love that B series cover. I think that's so evocative to 91 00:05:09,280 --> 00:05:11,840 have that, like nice clean color red with that picture, because 92 00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:13,680 that's gore and who did the cover, all that one, right? 93 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,600 Yeah, it is, yeah. So Goran Gleevich, he did, we 94 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,240 deal in LED as well, the cover for that. 95 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:24,560 And it was actually. I can't, John. 96 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,120 It might have been one of yours, actually. 97 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:31,240 One of the the bastardized cover. 98 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:36,360 Like the the cover that's the simple red background with the 99 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,400 is it the vault? I can't remember the full title. 100 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,920 Yeah, Vault of Doom. Those were actually a map. 101 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,720 Those are actually Matt Morris's work and he did a fantastic work 102 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:46,920 on those. Cool. 103 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:47,600 Yeah. Yeah. 104 00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:49,480 There we go. So that's that was my 105 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,600 inspiration for the Beast, Jerry. 106 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,680 Oh, that's a nice. Like, yeah, I just thought it 107 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,680 looked so cool, so I wanted to have something that kind of 108 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:58,800 spoke to that, and it was evocative of that. 109 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:03,960 Yeah, that's right. I can just. 110 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:05,080 I can. Just pull out the Bastards 111 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,080 classics at any point in time. I got. 112 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,000 My jaw mine are mine are somewhere in the John section 113 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,040 I've reshuffled lately so I have to find it. 114 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:15,280 The John.

So. 190 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,880 So if you guys so Hunter, I know you rolled up a character 191 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:31,280 already. I. 192 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:36,800 Did Ryan and John have you in the meantime rolled up 193 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,040 characters as well? I I did not get the chance to 194 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:42,480 those doing all this. But if we wanna run through real 195 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,800 quick, I can sure, yeah, I can do that real quick and I'll get 196 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:46,920 my dice roller and we'll do that. 197 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,440 So there is the there's a quick way to do it, and then there's a 198 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:56,280 super quick way to do it. I have a character generator, so 199 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,680 you can basically go to a link and it'll automatically roll you 200 00:10:59,680 --> 00:11:01,800 up a character. Well why don't we? 201 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,400 Why don't we? Let's just do that. 202 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:06,120 I'm down for if I can just click a button and I'll play whatever 203 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:06,880 pops up.

You know someone? 207 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,520 Say girps in the chat it means it says girps. 208 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,160 Ban them, Hunter. You got in. 209 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:21,760 And those guys? For 30 seconds. 210 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:25,800 What'd you say? I said. 211 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,200 Ban those guys for 30 seconds. Yeah, time them out. 212 00:11:28,560 --> 00:11:29,680 Time them out. They're. 213 00:11:29,680 --> 00:11:33,600 Gone. Should I drop it into the Zoom 214 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,120 chat? No, just anywhere besides that 215 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:41,800 would be good. OK, Zoom for me is on a 216 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:46,200 separate. Plan of existence desktop. 217 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,960 Yeah, it's on a different computer plate of existence. 218 00:11:49,680 --> 00:11:51,680 I can't even perfect, Thank you so much. 219 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:55,720 So we'll grab that. We'll throw that in the chat and 220 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,200 people can make characters along with us. 221 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:08,800 And for those that want to hear it in the podcast, it is room 222 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:14,520 cairn.byodinsbeardrpg.com/generator. You got to dropping in the chat 223 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,840 before I did. Well, he sent it to me. 224 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:21,680 Sent it to me. So that's why I had it. 225 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,400 Oh, so then it's already there. Boom. 226 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,400 So I get to be. I'm gonna scroll again because I 227 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:28,440 can't pronounce that. All right. 228 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,960 I'm Sten. All right. 229 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:40,000 And John, I am Torsten. Sten. 230 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,080 And Torsten. Awesome. 231 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:43,960 And then Hunter was already a Bjorn. 232 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:45,240 I'm. Bjorn. 233 00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,840 Like a Like a baby. Yeah. 234 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:53,000 Just it's just Bjorn. No, like a baby Bjorn. 235 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,840 Like, isn't that the thing that people hold, that they wrap 236 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,440 around and hold a baby in? Is that what it's called? 237 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:57,800 Yeah. I think so. 238 00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,960 I don't have a baby, but I feel like it's a thing. 239 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,200 Spell Torsten for me, TORSTANINEN. 240 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,920 EN. TORSTEN. 241 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,360 OK, Hunter, why don't you talk to us about Bjorn while I get 242 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,560 our names loaded up, and then John and I can tell us who Stan 243 00:13:17,560 --> 00:13:20,240 and Torsten are and then we'll get we'll get going. 244 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:24,160 Ah yes, Bjorn. I actually don't know why I 245 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:27,160 closed my character sheet, but let's reopen it I guess. 246 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,240 No, I'm really great at forward playing. 247 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,840 So Bjorn is a warrior. He is the son of Rune. 248 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,280 He is a statuesque, square jawed individual with beautiful WAVY 249 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,840 red hair. I would he I would describe him 250 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,720 as tolerant and lazy, two things that go together very well. 251 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:55,320 Yeah, he's a he is a gigantic, lazy laid back warrior who just 252 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:59,160 would love to drink Mead and and kill when it's convenient to 253 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:03,760 him. Nice what? 254 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,960 What is best in life, you know? Yeah. 255 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,680 All right. John, who is Torsten? 256 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:19,400 So Torsten, He is a scald in a past life. 257 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,880 He has a lanky physique, smooth skin, wispy hair and a pale 258 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,240 face. I speak in a formal manner. 259 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:33,320 I'm vain, yet ambitious. Excellent. 260 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,000 And what's Sten like? Well, I am also a sculled so I'm 261 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,800 thinking about Re Rolling, Sten Cool and Hunter Hunter, what are 262 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:45,560 you again? I'm a. 263 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:47,280 Warrior. You're a warrior. 264 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,920 You're a sculled. Sculled, sculled, Warrior 265 00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,960 sculled. Oh, oh, oh. 266 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,240 We got a scout. I'm gonna keep Sten, but now I'm 267 00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:58,440 a scout. So I am of short physique, rough 268 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,520 skin, matted hair with a sharp face. 269 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:04,960 I speak in a precise manner, and I'm vengeful, yet ambitious. 270 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,640 In another life, I was a scout. Why is this just me? 271 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:15,680 So yeah, I apparently have, like, a shit load of hunting 272 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,880 knives on me. That's that's what I got. 273 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,440 I got my key item is a hunting knife. 274 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:20,640 My other gear is a hunting knife. 275 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:25,440 My weapons are a hunting knife. So yeah, so that is me. 276 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:29,320 I am Sten the vengeful yet ambitious. 277 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:31,720 Scout. Awesome. 278 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:38,680 So the I still need to tweak the character generator a little bit 279 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,600 because it doesn't give you the slots like how much slots things 280 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,040 take up, but it should say how how many free slots you have I. 281 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,400 Do 5 out of 10 free slots, yeah. Cool. 282 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:52,960 Yes, I am. Or yeah, the Warrior is a bit 283 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,760 more laden with equipment. I. 284 00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,640 Do have a lot of stuff. Yeah. 285 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,840 So I think that it's that's a good way to to kind of introduce 286 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:06,400 the system of ROOT and Karen. So it's based on into the Odd 287 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:11,320 and Karen, hence the name, except there is a bit more focus 288 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,760 on combat than as compared to Karen. 289 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:18,840 So you've got a key item, each one of your characters has a key 290 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:23,080 item and you can use that to to carry out special attacks and 291 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:27,760 special abilities in combat. And a lot of those will result 292 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:34,520 in causing a fatigue when you use it, and a fatigue occupies 293 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,600 an inventory slot. So the the the amount of effort 294 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,720 that you exert, that takes a toll on your body. 295 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,840 And after after a while, you can't do those special abilities 296 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:50,160 anymore, because if you ever get to 0 slots free, that means your 297 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:54,360 your resilience is reduced to 0 and so you're basically exposed 298 00:16:54,360 --> 00:17:00,200 to attack. Resilience is like HP in Cairn, 299 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,280 which is hid protection. So it's not how much health you 300 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,880 have, but it's how well you are at avoiding attacks or how well 301 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:11,440 you are at persisting through combat to avoid attacks. 302 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:16,000 Once your resilience is reduced to zero, then you start taking 303 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,160 strength damage and that's when you're you're getting ready to 304 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,920 die pretty much. But because it's a soul's like 305 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:28,280 death is not the end, and when you die, you'll respond at a 306 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:37,640 bonfire with you lose one point of vigor, which is your kind of 307 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:41,280 your drive and your humanity. So in if you're familiar with 308 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,120 Dark Souls, it's equivalent of like a humanity stat. 309 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,320 So if your humanity goes to 0, if your vigor goes to 0, then 310 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,680 you're lost to the void and you become a Hollow, so you lose 311 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,960 your character, essentially. Permanent death, the equivalent 312 00:17:55,960 --> 00:18:00,880 of permanent death. Yeah, so that's kind of a 313 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:06,000 whistle stop of the of the mechanics the. 314 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:10,840 So it shouldn't list your actually, I'm not sure if it 315 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,240 does list your special attacks in that I don't. 316 00:18:17,360 --> 00:18:22,080 Think I see a special attack? No. 317 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:28,840 So again I need to update the the generator. 318 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:35,840 So for a warrior you've got you can so your key item is your 319 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:41,000 shield, so key items basically that determines your what you 320 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,200 can do. So it's it's the equivalent of 321 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:49,400 like a class. So your key item is your shield. 322 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,800 So that means that you can block and you can parry. 323 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,800 So you can choose to to react to an enemy attack and you can 324 00:18:56,800 --> 00:19:02,760 block that or you can parry it and counter attack your primary 325 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,480 weapons of bearded axe. With that, you can attempt to 326 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,960 disarm. That's a special attack, or you 327 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:13,880 can use Hack, which does extra damage against against enemies. 328 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,240 Your spear also has a special attack that you could use to 329 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,960 thrust hit targets from far away. 330 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:30,640 So we've got a scald, don't we? Yes, your key item is a runic 331 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:37,280 focus, so that's basically the equivalent, like. 332 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:41,440 So a scald is a like a mix of a Bard and a cleric. 333 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:47,480 So the rooted focus you can use to to to channel a magic, so 334 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,760 magic for skulls take the form of sagas. 335 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:56,800 So it's a you're not casting a spell, you're reciting a saga 336 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,280 and that's what channels the the energy of the gods and that's 337 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,840 what caused the the magical effect. 338 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,440 So you basically hold up your runic focus, you channel the 339 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,560 energy of the gods, you tell the story of of the saga and that. 340 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:16,200 Is what causes the magical attack or the magical effect. 341 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:22,840 You can choose Heal or Lightning Spear for your Saga, or it might 342 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:25,360 have chosen for you automatically in the Generator. 343 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,400 Let me see. Yes, I believe it chose Heal for 344 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:35,400 me, OK? So yeah, you could use that to 345 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,800 that. Comes in handy if you're playing 346 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,400 with multiple characters, multiple adventurers, so you can 347 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,480 use that to restore 10 resilience and clear the 348 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,280 deprived condition. If anyone has that, that causes 349 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:56,400 one fatigue when you use it. Your weapon is a steel sword, so 350 00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:00,520 you can use that to sunder. That's your special attack you 351 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:05,000 can use sunder to. So it does reduce damage when 352 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,600 you use the sunder, but it also basically cuts through the 353 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,880 enemy's armor and it reduces their defence so you can make 354 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:14,160 them. It makes them easier to attack 355 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,120 in the next round and that causes a fatigue as well when 356 00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:26,440 you use it. So the something that that I 357 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,760 should have mentioned earlier was reactions. 358 00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:32,480 So in combat you can react to an enemy attack. 359 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:38,440 So say a troll is rearing back and it's about to hit you, you 360 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,640 can choose to react. Each class or each background 361 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:47,120 has a different way to react. The warrior can block, oh sorry, 362 00:21:47,120 --> 00:21:52,360 the warrior can parry an attack, The skald can use a shout. 363 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:58,600 So it's similar to the Dragonborn in Skyrim. 364 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:04,080 You can basically channel power and shout and disrupt the 365 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:09,600 enemy's attack, so knock them off balance and then that causes 366 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:14,480 fatigue when you use it as well. So that's some of the abilities 367 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:21,480 you need to make a save in order to to carry it out. 368 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:28,040 So the shout, you need to make a spirit save to successfully 369 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,080 carry out the the shout and disrupt the attack and that 370 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:41,880 causes fatigue the block. So yeah hunter, you get 2 371 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:46,600 reactions, you can block or parry so blocking it raises your 372 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,080 shield to avoid all physical damage. 373 00:22:49,360 --> 00:22:52,920 That's a strength save. You need to to to to make. 374 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,600 So basically rolling under your strength in order to 375 00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,840 successfully carry out the block and then parry. 376 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:06,040 Similar thing, roll, make a strength save, and then you can 377 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,800 deflect the attack and repost for extra damage. 378 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:16,920 Nice. And for the scout, your key item 379 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:19,960 is a hunt is a hunting knife, so you've got dual building knives. 380 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:30,040 You can use that to backstab. So that's sort of your your 381 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,280 reaction is a dash. Sorry. 382 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:38,680 So you can basically if you make a deck save, you can dash, dodge 383 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:42,120 out of the way of the attack and avoid all damage. 384 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:47,440 If you fail, you still reduce the the enemy's attack and 385 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,000 reduce the the amount of damage that comes in, but you don't 386 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:54,480 totally avoid it and then backstab. 387 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,240 You can basically duck behind your enemy and hit inflict a 388 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:02,520 critical strike, so make a deck save and then you do double 389 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:08,520 damage but that one if you fail then the enemy attacks you like, 390 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:11,680 basically has a retaliatory retaliatory attack against you 391 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,600 and you take extra damage from that. 392 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,760 So it's it's a risk, reward situation? 393 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,560 Sorry, I kind of rattled through that quickly. 394 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:23,600 Oh no. You're good, yeah. 395 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:31,760 Cool, OK does anyone? Sorry I've I've got the the 396 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:36,680 abilities here, so does anyone need more abilities explained or 397 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:38,680 detailed or anything like that so? 398 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,240 Last rate in Volley, are those also just different skills that 399 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,360 I have or are those so that's just like Bagstab. 400 00:24:45,360 --> 00:24:48,000 I have last rate in Volley as as options that I can do as well. 401 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,680 Yeah, so last rate. So it does. 402 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,200 It's like a bleed. So you do initial D6 damage and 403 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:59,960 then you roll AD 4 to determine how long, how many rounds that 404 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,320 bleed lasts for and how much damage it does. 405 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:08,440 SO1D6 for initial damage and then D4 for recurring damage 406 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,120 every round. And volley is with your bow so 407 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:18,080 you can fire 2 arrows for extra damage. 408 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,960 So where you roll your damage twice and that causes fatigue 409 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:28,280 when you do that. OK there's the other thing to 410 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,960 know is that there's something called a dire strike so some 411 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,480 enemies have it and some of your abilities have it too. 412 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,920 If you roll Max damage on a damage die then there's an 413 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,200 there's an additional effect that happens. 414 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:44,400 So because there's no there's no to hit rolls because it's an 415 00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:49,160 into the odd based system to re to kind of capture that 416 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:53,600 excitement of a critical hit. You've got a dire strike so they 417 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,440 can be pretty nasty if some enemies have some pretty nasty 418 00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:03,520 dire strikes. Cool OK cool. 419 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:06,680 So that that's so. The other thing to know is that 420 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:12,560 when you're so yeah, hits are automatic, so there's no to hit 421 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,320 rolls. So you just roll damage for 422 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:22,320 enemies and for the adventurers if you're attacking the same 423 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,280 target. So if multiple adventurers are 424 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:28,160 attacking the same target, you all rule your damage and then 425 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,480 pick the highest value out of those attacks. 426 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,200 And it's the same when if an enemy. 427 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,200 If multiple enemies are attacking 1 adventurer, it's the 428 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:44,280 same kind of thing. So it's yeah, so it it scales 429 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,120 pretty nicely if you've got lots of people playing. 430 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:55,040 The other thing is if your resilience is reduced to zero, 431 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,960 well, if it's reduced to exactly 0 then that triggers an omen 432 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,000 which is a supernatural tinged event that happens. 433 00:27:07,360 --> 00:27:12,200 But if you're once your resilience is depleted, then you 434 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:17,760 start taking strength damage, and so every every point that 435 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,320 takes you under zero you it reduces your strength by that 436 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,840 amount. And then you roll a critical 437 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,400 damage save for every additional attack. 438 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,360 If you fail that save, you die. But again, you respawn at the 439 00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:32,040 bonfire because death is not the end. 440 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,080 Cool. OK so it's so this will be my 441 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:42,200 first time riding with a with multiple adventurers because it 442 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:46,560 was rune Karen was designed for like two players, so one player 443 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,360 and 1 warden, but it can work with with multiple players. 444 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,360 So. It's it'll be interesting to 445 00:27:54,360 --> 00:27:55,960 see. It'll be it'll be fun. 446 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,640 I think we can just. Kill John real quick if we need 447 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:05,840 to get rid of him, yeah. I'm expendable. 448 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:15,240 All right, so. So in in Warden Saga and Warden 449 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:18,280 Saga Remastered, there's a delve generator. 450 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:24,000 You can use that to roll up if you're playing solo or if you're 451 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,200 a warden and you want to roll up like a mini campaign or a mini 452 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:30,000 adventure. So it's tables that you can roll 453 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:31,960 on. It'll generate in different 454 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:36,440 encounters. There's a small like there's a 455 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,160 variety of sizes going from like a Cairn, so just like a little 456 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:44,920 crypt to all the way up to a stronghold or like a village. 457 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:50,560 So I've rolled up a a random cave for you guys to run through 458 00:28:51,760 --> 00:29:00,680 and the objective of The Cave is to right? 459 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:05,840 So you're you're all part of a clan of warriors or clan of 460 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:15,240 Vikings, Viking Raiders and kind of just general adventurers. 461 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:19,560 So you you've been charged with slaying a troll that's 462 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:23,600 terrorized your clan for decades and you've tracked the troll to 463 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:27,760 this cave. So you start off at the entrance 464 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:33,640 of The Cave and you're basically looking to to search and 465 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:38,400 destroy, to find the troll and to slay the the troll that's 466 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:46,240 been terrorizing your clan. OK, so is everyone cool to 467 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:47,920 start? Absolutely. 468 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:49,440 Hell. Yeah, right. 469 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,680 All right. So you start at the entrance of 470 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:58,400 The Cave, there is you do start right next to a bonfire. 471 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,720 So I'll say that you've all have rested at the bonfire and you're 472 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:07,240 all ready to go. If any of you die during like in 473 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:11,560 The Cave, you'll respawn at the the bonfire at this bonfire. 474 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:20,600 OK, so the first thing you see, brackish water drips into an an 475 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:24,240 enormous black pond. So The Cave it's naturally 476 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,320 formed. There's two paths that lead from 477 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:32,480 this room 1 to the northwest and one to the northeast. 478 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:37,720 And the the, the area that you're in is dominated by this 479 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:43,360 enormous black pond and there's condensation dripping from the 480 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:48,640 ceiling into the into the water, you said. 481 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,240 There's Northwest and Northeast. That's. 482 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:52,240 Right. Yeah, we. 483 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,200 Yes. Jordan just sits down. 484 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,920 You know, he's never, he doesn't really want to do anything. 485 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:16,120 I I my sustain is vengeful. And if this parole has been 486 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:21,000 attacking our village, then I got murder on my mind, you know? 487 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:25,600 So I'm actually just kind of like with my 2 Hunting knives 488 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:31,040 just kind of like you know to the whole Loki thing but for 489 00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:36,920 like the MCU like you know and and I'm I'm, I'm ready to go 490 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:44,000 like I'm I'm just waiting for some type of signal that I can 491 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,160 start scouting it out. I look to Taurus and his Bjorn 492 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,520 just can sits on his ass again. He wants like. 493 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,360 Taking small rocks and like skip skipping them on the pond, you 494 00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:57,720 know. Torsten is very much the image 495 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:02,800 of the of the well kept dandy of the group. 496 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:09,240 He has like a braided beard and well oiled and he's very much a 497 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:15,480 formal gentleman. And he says he turns to I'm 498 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:16,880 sorry, Ryan, what was your character's name? 499 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:22,440 Sten Sten. He turns to Sten and says calm 500 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,920 yourself, brother, We we must investigate further. 501 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:33,160 I I'm going to see what's what is going on with this pool here. 502 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:38,760 And Orston approaches the brackish pool. 503 00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:42,960 Did you see our dandy? Yeah. 504 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,000 Basically. Cool. 505 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,840 All right, nice. Nice, Got A. 506 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:53,600 Got a good mix of adventurers. So the the pool there's like a 507 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,360 smell of rot coming off of the pool. 508 00:32:56,520 --> 00:33:02,840 You've all of you have explored caves like this before and you 509 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,920 know that this kind of pool isn't isn't unusual. 510 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,920 It's naturally formed. You wouldn't want to drink out 511 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,080 of it. It's like stagnant, rotten, 512 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:17,360 rotten water there has you. You know from experience that 513 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,720 that nasty things live at the at the bottom of these ponds as 514 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:28,760 well. Whipping. 515 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:32,920 Rocks, so Bjorn still whipping rocks into the into the pool. 516 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:38,200 This massive, like 7 foot tall, scarred, bearded giant guy is 517 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,000 just like huge. Arm. 518 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,400 Throwing, you know. And beyond the pebbles striking 519 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:48,920 the surface, there's no like other movement from the water. 520 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,840 Not just yet. Bear with me a moment. 521 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:54,520 Here. Yes. 522 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,720 But Bjorn, that's definitely the best thing we should be doing 523 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:02,120 ponds like this is, is really stir them up, right? 524 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,560 I mean, what's the worst that could happen? 525 00:34:11,159 --> 00:34:13,800 I look at his scarred body and I'm just like, he's like. 526 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:16,040 Totally touched. Like, covered in scars. 527 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:22,719 Like, yeah, no lesson lived is a. 528 00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,480 Lesson learned, you know. And he points to like one of his 529 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,880 chest, and then another on his shoulder and. 530 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,400 Seems like you've had a lot of lessons, but not known learned. 531 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,280 Much from them. Apparently is what happens. 532 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,600 So as you're as you're kind of discussing and continuing to 533 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,760 throw rocks into the into the pond and you see a slender hand 534 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:49,800 come out of the pond, it looks white and delicate. 535 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:57,480 Jordan stands up and like pulls out his spear and the shield and 536 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:04,560 the gods are dead in this right. Yeah, so the like Ragnarok has 537 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:07,800 happened. So all the gods have been slain 538 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,040 in battle, either slain or missing. 539 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,120 And there's no like.

Torsten pokes his head out. 725 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:05,160 It's a good look at the at the wooden figure if you can. 726 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:10,280 So it's you're still a little bit too far away. 727 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:15,520 You have seen similar, you have seen things like this before and 728 00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:19,520 the way that the skeletons are reacting to it leads you believe 729 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,760 that it's something of loose some like magical power in it. 730 00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:27,880 The skeletons don't normally act like this, so there's something 731 00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:31,640 of of intrinsic power in this carved figure. 732 00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,760 It's whether or not it's a it's a like an effigy to a God. 733 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:38,960 Not you're not quite sure, but it's something intrinsically 734 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,480 powerful guys. Those skeletons are tweaking. 735 00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:48,280 So I would love to use my skill, if that's OK. 736 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:54,240 So my plan as a scout is to try to, like try to take at least 737 00:49:54,240 --> 00:49:57,600 one out before we all discharge in there. 738 00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:04,120 Because if I backstab one, that only leaves three left. 739 00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:06,800 That's one more for each of us, so none of us would ever think. 740 00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:11,920 So how about I sneak in, try to backstab one, and as soon as 741 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:16,240 like I make contact you 2. Charge. 742 00:50:16,240 --> 00:50:18,640 In at the other two closest because if they're in a circle, 743 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:21,480 my thought is if I hit one in the back, you two at the sides, 744 00:50:21,720 --> 00:50:25,640 the one farthest from us will be isolated at that point away. 745 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:28,320 And then if you two are engaged with those other two, I can make 746 00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:31,640 my way around to that guy. So let me try to backstab the 747 00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:35,600 first one and as soon as I hit or don't hit, you guys charge in 748 00:50:35,600 --> 00:50:39,400 on the two on the sides. Do you discuss this with Bjorn 749 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,920 or you just do this? No, yes, I would like to say 750 00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:46,840 like just can you count? All right. 751 00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:53,400 Can you Torsen? Can you count Ford Bjorn? 752 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,400 Basically Torsten. Can you just keep him in check 753 00:50:56,520 --> 00:50:59,760 until I stab one of them in the back and then both of you run in 754 00:51:00,360 --> 00:51:05,000 or follow Bjorn in? Barely, my good friend. 755 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:10,480 I will do so for you. OK, so I would like to sneak 756 00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:15,480 forward and attempt to backstab whichever one is closest to me 757 00:51:15,480 --> 00:51:17,400 as I circle. Cool. 758 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:22,280 So and the other the other two are gonna attack other two other 759 00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,240 skeletons. So like each each one of you is 760 00:51:24,240 --> 00:51:25,720 going to attack a different skeleton. 761 00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:28,520 Yeah, that's my hope is that all hit one and the other two will 762 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:30,000 charge in. Yeah, Bjorn. 763 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:33,560 Dislikes this plan. It's not honorable, you know, 764 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:35,040 he's. It's completely honorable. 765 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:36,000 It's Scout. Moves. 766 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:39,200 It's scout moves, so. He's like he's watching you go 767 00:51:39,200 --> 00:51:43,440 and he's like the moment he's done counting, you know? 768 00:51:45,960 --> 00:51:50,120 So I scamper stealthily but quickly, knowing that I have a 769 00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:55,280 very limited fuse before Bjorn. You know, booms. 770 00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:58,440 Yeah, so. The the backstab, that'll be a 771 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:01,200 deck save. If you make it, you'll attack 772 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:03,920 for double damage. If you fail it, the skeleton 773 00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:08,600 will get an attack on you for with damage advantage. 774 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:13,240 So for all those out there listening, walk through a deck 775 00:52:13,240 --> 00:52:16,560 save and I will do that for you sure. 776 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:19,280 So into the odd is a roll under system. 777 00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:23,880 So you're you've got four ability scores, Strength decks, 778 00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:31,720 Wits, and Spirit decks. You need to roll your decks or 779 00:52:31,720 --> 00:52:36,000 under in order to successfully make the the deck safe. 780 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:39,360 So what's your decks at the at the moment? 781 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:45,600 My. Decks at the moment is really 782 00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:52,680 terrible, and for for the Dexy guy, it's my worst stat, so 783 00:52:52,720 --> 00:52:54,880 that's cool. It's 7. 784 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:59,280 Seven. So you can if you want to, 785 00:52:59,280 --> 00:53:04,040 instead of backstabbing, you can just do a a standard attack that 786 00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:08,800 hits automatically for D6 damage. 787 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:13,080 Or you can try the backstab. No, this is my I'm a scout. 788 00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:17,960 This is the what I do. And if I'm if I am a clumsy 789 00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,880 scout, then I die. You know it's clumsy. 790 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:26,360 Scouts don't last long. But I committed to this and and 791 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,280 a WID of 12 would be nice. Where my did you know that? 792 00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:32,520 You could swap 2 stats after creation I. 793 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:36,000 Went with the dice roller. Uh huh, So did I, and then I 794 00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,640 swap 2 stats. Well, if I can swap 2 stats, I'm 795 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:40,960 gonna swap it to a 12. Yeah, yeah. 796 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,360 But go for it. If if you're a a scout, then 797 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:47,440 that absolutely makes sense. What is my SPI again? 798 00:53:48,680 --> 00:53:53,080 Spirit. So spirit is essentially like 799 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:56,040 charisma, or a bit a mix of charisma and will. 800 00:53:57,480 --> 00:54:00,000 I suddenly became much faster and much Dumber because I 801 00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,120 swapped my Dick in one. Nice. 802 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,640 So I just got to roll under 12 on my ID 20. 803 00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:09,800 Yep. And I rolled A10 baby. 804 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:11,880 That's awesome, because that would have failed otherwise. 805 00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:20,840 All right, so roll your so it's roll 2D6, take the highest of 806 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:26,200 those two, and then double that. OK, so I rolled A6 and A6. 807 00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,640 Excellent. So that is a dire strike. 808 00:54:31,440 --> 00:54:40,520 So that means you attack again. So that is 12 damage, and then 809 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:44,000 roll your damage again for your second attack. 810 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,600 And I just roll 1D6 at this point, right? 811 00:54:47,720 --> 00:54:49,600 Or do I? Is it the backstab again? 812 00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:54,920 So it's it would be dual again. So roll 2D6 and then take the 813 00:54:54,920 --> 00:54:57,480 highest. Yeah, a four and a one. 814 00:54:57,520 --> 00:54:59,720 OK, so 4. OK. 815 00:54:59,720 --> 00:55:04,880 So what was it, 12 + 416 16, Yes. 816 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:08,640 Like I overkilled the shit out of a out of a skeleton. 817 00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:16,240 I bjorned him. So you you took him under 0 res 818 00:55:17,120 --> 00:55:21,160 and then that's that attacked or that damage the strength, but 819 00:55:21,160 --> 00:55:23,800 that didn't fully fully kill it in one hit. 820 00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:29,400 These skeletons are fairly tough, so that needs to make a 821 00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:33,120 critical damage save now. And it beat. 822 00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:38,400 It failed by one point, so it rolled A3 and A2A1 or A2 would 823 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,920 have been a a success for it, so the skeleton crumbles to the 824 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:46,000 ground. OK. 825 00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:48,760 So I. Just sneak up and I just hit it 826 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:54,000 right, right in the the, the upper lower lumbar region and I 827 00:55:54,040 --> 00:55:57,280 just hit it and the whole thing just basically dusts in front of 828 00:55:57,280 --> 00:55:58,440 me. Yeah. 829 00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:02,320 It's just like the yeah. And then it just cracks. 830 00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:08,080 And that's what I assume is the the like the starting gun for 831 00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:10,800 Bjorn to be like running in Oh. Absolutely. 832 00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:14,520 The moment that hit happens, Jordan's like laughing like and 833 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:17,920 then running in yeah. Orson. 834 00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:20,600 Follows close behind the. Dust out of my face. 835 00:56:22,240 --> 00:56:25,200 So Bjorn? Is Bjorn attacking with the axe? 836 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,360 Yeah. Bjorn's going to raise his 837 00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:31,760 skegox and he's going to fucking bring it down on one of these 838 00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:34,360 Skelly boys. All right. 839 00:56:34,520 --> 00:56:36,800 Is it just a standard attack, or are you going to use like a 840 00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:38,200 special attack? Oh. 841 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:41,400 You know what, actually, let's use a special attack, because 842 00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:44,520 fatigue you you can just get back from like a short breather, 843 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:48,240 right? So fatigue you've got, that's a 844 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:53,280 a fairpoint, you've all got a Mead flask that's strong on your 845 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:55,560 belt. So it's got two sips of Mead in 846 00:56:55,560 --> 00:57:00,960 it and drinking that drinking one sip heals your resilience by 847 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:06,320 10 points and it clears two points of fatigue and the meat 848 00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:09,200 flask is refilled when you sit at a bonfire. 849 00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:17,240 So it's not as like the it's not as quick to recover res as it 850 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:19,240 would be in Cairn for instance or into the odd. 851 00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:22,000 But you can drink the meat to do that. 852 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:27,520 Yeah, so or did you want to so you've got hack that you could 853 00:57:27,520 --> 00:57:30,880 potentially use. Yeah, I think I'm going to hack 854 00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:32,960 at this other one, so. Cool. 855 00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:39,200 So that hits automatically. So roll your D8 for damage and 856 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:42,160 then double it for. That's your hack. 857 00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:43,120 Frenzy. I rolled. 858 00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:46,800 A5 and that makes it 10. 10 All right, cool. 859 00:57:52,010 --> 00:57:54,370 OK. Same thing, and that's reduced 860 00:57:54,370 --> 00:57:57,810 its res and then it's taken the rest as strength damage. 861 00:57:58,610 --> 00:58:02,800 Cool. So it failed it's critical 862 00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:06,720 damage check. So the you bring the the axe 863 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:13,160 down and it just splits the skeleton in half and it crumbles 864 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:15,560 into dust. Nice. 865 00:58:15,680 --> 00:58:19,080 All right. Good work, Torsten. 866 00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:30,440 Would you like to do Torsten? Has more probably better effect 867 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:35,440 at a distance then then up close in combat, so he's actually 868 00:58:35,440 --> 00:58:41,360 going to go for a shout. So shout is a is a reaction, so 869 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:45,640 you can use it in combat, yeah? OK, gotcha. 870 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:50,520 All right, well, in that case, like Torsten instinctually goes 871 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:53,280 first a shout and he's like, damn no ears. 872 00:58:53,560 --> 00:58:56,960 So he pull. He pulls out a steel sword 873 00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:59,640 instead and goes for a swing. Nice. 874 00:58:59,960 --> 00:59:02,760 So is that just like a standard attack on standard attack? 875 00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:03,960 Yep. Cool. 876 00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:11,360 So sword is D6. I believe that is. 877 00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,600 A Strength save. No that that just roll your 878 00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:17,720 damage, so just AD 6. Right into the odd Yep, yeah. 879 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:26,080 All right, 33. OK, so that's the steel sword 880 00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:32,440 cuts through the the skeleton, but it's still it's still up. 881 00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:35,360 So there are two skeletons remaining. 882 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:40,080 The one that you just attacked, since you're closest to it, is 883 00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:44,560 going to attempt to attack you. So it's got a spear and it's 884 00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:49,120 going to attempt to to stab you. So you can react to that attack 885 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:52,440 with the shout if you like, or you can take the hits and hope 886 00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:57,480 your armor protects you. I'm going to like, like, again, 887 00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:00,280 the the shout is just like Torsten's reaction to 888 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:02,280 everything. So he's going to go for that. 889 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:04,840 He's going to go for a shout. Yeah, cool. 890 01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:10,440 Exactly right. So that's a spirit save. 891 01:00:11,080 --> 01:00:14,760 If you succeed, then you'll disrupt the attack and take no 892 01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:16,400 damage, but it'll cause a fatigue. 893 01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:21,640 OK, and my spirit is a 12 so I need to get a 12 or under. 894 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:26,560 Yeah, 55. Awesome. 895 01:00:27,080 --> 01:00:29,880 So yeah, you chat holding your runic focus. 896 01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:34,560 You channel. Is there a particular God that 897 01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:38,440 you wanted to invoke or the land or what? 898 01:00:38,440 --> 01:00:44,320 Sort of like how would how would this shout take form for 899 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,080 Torsten? You know, having that 900 01:00:47,080 --> 01:00:53,400 conversation with the with the lady of the pond, sort of like I 901 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:55,960 think that speaks to Torsten's character. 902 01:00:55,960 --> 01:00:57,920 So he's sort of like of the land. 903 01:00:58,960 --> 01:01:02,400 So like, you ever seen those videos of, like the traditional, 904 01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:06,000 like Nordic cow calls? Like just in the hills? 905 01:01:06,280 --> 01:01:08,800 Is it like culling? Or no, Like it's not culling 906 01:01:08,800 --> 01:01:09,560 something like that. Culling. 907 01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:10,920 I'm not for some. Culling, you know. 908 01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:15,200 Yeah. But yes, it it sort of takes 909 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:19,080 that form for Torsten. Cool. 910 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:29,840 So yeah, your your voice, you, you shout out this like visceral 911 01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:34,840 song and it disrupts the skeleton, knocks it off balance. 912 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:38,960 So you've you've gained 1 fatigue in your inventory. 913 01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:41,760 So I think you had, what, 5 free slots? 914 01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:45,800 Yes, 4 remaining. OK, All right. 915 01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:54,560 The next skeleton is going to come for you as well, because it 916 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:56,400 was, they were kind of going around in a circle. 917 01:01:56,400 --> 01:02:01,520 So this one's coming after you. So it's going to do the same. 918 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:02,600 It's going to attempt the same thing. 919 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:08,160 It's going to raise its spear. You can react again, it would 920 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:12,680 cause another fatigue or you can take the hit. 921 01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:16,400 It's up to you. I'm going to take the hit 922 01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:20,960 because I think Orsten would have been preoccupied with the 923 01:02:20,960 --> 01:02:23,000 first skeleton. Cool. 924 01:02:23,760 --> 01:02:27,480 So you've got 2 defense, don't you? 925 01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:31,080 Yeah, 2 defense, Yeah, cool. So that's the reindeer hide 926 01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:33,800 armor that you've got. And you've got a leather hood 927 01:02:35,080 --> 01:02:37,520 that's that adds additional protection. 928 01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:43,480 So the skeleton rolled a three. So your two points of armor, 929 01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:48,120 that reduces the attack to one point, so you take one point of 930 01:02:48,320 --> 01:02:52,120 Resilience damage. OK, all right. 931 01:02:52,400 --> 01:03:00,800 And then it's back around. So, Sten, there's one skeleton 932 01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:02,240 or no? So there's two skeletons 933 01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:03,880 remaining, aren't there? Yeah. 934 01:03:03,880 --> 01:03:10,640 What would you like to do? So I hit. 935 01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:15,000 I hit the one in the middle and then Bjorn came in and hit. 936 01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:18,840 Does it matter one of them? So. 937 01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:23,360 This is the So there's two on Torsten right now. 938 01:03:23,360 --> 01:03:24,240 That's what happened. Yep. 939 01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:25,280 Yep. OK. 940 01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:29,720 I'm going to. Can I tell which one was already 941 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:31,360 hit? Do I see like some broken bones 942 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:32,200 on it or something? Yeah. 943 01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:37,880 You can see like the sword slash through it, OK. 944 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:41,560 So then I'm not gonna use skill this time. 945 01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:45,280 I'll just do some regular old tacky, tacky. 946 01:03:45,880 --> 01:03:48,640 I don't want a dash. I'm not gonna volley. 947 01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:52,240 So that just be well. I can't lacerate this thing 948 01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:55,040 because it's not gonna bleed. So what's just a normal hit? 949 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:58,800 So that that would just be rolling your damage. 950 01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:04,240 So you've got two knives, yeah. So roll 2D6 and then take the 951 01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:08,880 higher of those two. Like yeah, roll 2D6 and take the 952 01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:12,520 higher one for your damage. OK, yeah, I had. 953 01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:15,840 These and I'm just gonna try to like from behind as it goes into 954 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:19,320 torch and just kind of rip from like top of the rib cage down 955 01:04:19,320 --> 01:04:21,960 and try to break out its its whole situation. 956 01:04:23,280 --> 01:04:24,880 Cool. I got a two to three, so 3. 957 01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:32,840 So 3 damage. OK, so yeah, you're it's a bit 958 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:35,240 of an awkward angle. So it does. 959 01:04:35,240 --> 01:04:38,760 You don't quite get a strong hit on it, but you do take a chunk 960 01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:41,720 out of its like rib cage. But it is still coming. 961 01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:44,720 All right, Bjorn. What? 962 01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:47,240 Would you like? Bjorn is going to go for the 963 01:04:47,240 --> 01:04:51,160 undamaged one because they obviously have the other one 964 01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:55,520 under wraps and I think this time I'm just going to make a 965 01:04:55,520 --> 01:05:00,240 normal axe attack. So so. 966 01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:03,360 That's just rule D8 for your damage. 4. 967 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:06,640 Four. OK, that's enough to take it 968 01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:19,520 under zero and strength. OK, so it fails. 969 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:23,840 It's a critical damage save, so it collapses. 970 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:26,680 Yeah. Collapses into a heap on the 971 01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:33,400 ground. You're in like raised axis. 972 01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:35,760 That's true, Thorsten, what would you like to do? 973 01:05:37,200 --> 01:05:42,520 I'm actually going to scold this skeleton in front of me. 974 01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:46,960 Cool. I'm going to, you know, like 975 01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:53,800 stand firm and like level my eyes at it and and just say you 976 01:05:53,800 --> 01:05:58,240 can't slash anyone with that, those toothpicks, toothpick arms 977 01:05:58,240 --> 01:06:02,040 of yours. All right, cool. 978 01:06:02,040 --> 01:06:07,160 So for those familiar with the previous version with Warden 979 01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:14,640 Saga, one point O the skull scold is a new is a renamed 980 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:18,080 ability. So it used to be Lightning 981 01:06:18,080 --> 01:06:22,880 Knife, but I think the so I wanted to change it to something 982 01:06:22,880 --> 01:06:27,360 a bit more thematic, so let me bring up. 983 01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:30,720 The. Wording for scold it's 984 01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:36,160 essentially the same and it's not loading, that's why. 985 01:06:36,480 --> 01:06:41,040 OK, there we go. So. 986 01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:44,600 It's in the quick start. There we go. 987 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:50,520 Yes, So did you want to? So yes, you're manifesting 988 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:53,480 cutting words. Are you wielding it as a dagger 989 01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:56,680 or are you going to throw it at the skeleton? 990 01:06:59,040 --> 01:07:02,200 I'm going to wield it as Dagger. Cool. 991 01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:07,120 So yeah, you you like speak. I'm a cutting Barb and it forms 992 01:07:07,120 --> 01:07:09,440 a a physical dagger in your hand. 993 01:07:10,800 --> 01:07:18,800 OK, so you can, yeah, roll D4 for damage with that, OK. 2. 994 01:07:19,800 --> 01:07:25,960 Two damage. OK, so there was 1 remaining. 995 01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:34,840 OK, right, So that is enough to cut through its resilience. 996 01:07:35,040 --> 01:07:39,760 And it fails at save and it crumbles into dust on the 997 01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:41,760 ground. Ice. 998 01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:46,240 All right, so that's all four skeletons dispatched, and you're 999 01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:48,880 just surrounded by a pile of bone and dust. 1000 01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:52,240 And this. You're close enough now that you 1001 01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:58,720 can see what they were dancing around, and it's something that 1002 01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:03,680 you've heard about in legend, but you've never actually seen 1003 01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:10,000 one kind of in physical form, it's an effigy stone, so you can 1004 01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:14,400 use this. So in legend, it's told that 1005 01:08:14,480 --> 01:08:22,720 these stones can summon powerful spirits, but you never know what 1006 01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:24,399 type of spirit it is that you summon. 1007 01:08:25,240 --> 01:08:30,000 It could be a helpful adventurer, or it could be a 1008 01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:36,760 vengeful black fetch. So looking at the the stone, you 1009 01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:38,800 can see that there's a name carved on it. 1010 01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:48,640 It's Inglefur, the Scald and and Torsten. 1011 01:08:48,640 --> 01:08:55,840 You're familiar with Inglefur and you know that Eagle Ford was 1012 01:08:55,880 --> 01:09:04,399 a notorious Brig and and Viking Raider, so potentially it's a it 1013 01:09:04,399 --> 01:09:08,560 would be a black fetch if you used it to summon, which is 1014 01:09:09,319 --> 01:09:14,960 essentially a an angry spirit that would arrive and and attack 1015 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:17,160 you on site if you were to summon it. 1016 01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:23,200 So the skeletons were dancing around this effigy stone, 1017 01:09:24,000 --> 01:09:29,520 obviously lured in by the remaining like the imbued power 1018 01:09:29,520 --> 01:09:36,680 of this skald. Question Torsten specifically 1019 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:38,960 because he summoned or whoever's around. 1020 01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:45,160 It's whoever's around. So the the spirits are filled 1021 01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:49,240 with vengeance, so they'll basically attack whoever they 1022 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:51,200 see. So it's like. 1023 01:09:51,319 --> 01:09:53,520 Stan. Yeah, pretty much. 1024 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:56,320 So do we. So do we theoretically have, 1025 01:09:56,320 --> 01:09:59,160 like, dare I call it a spirit bomb? 1026 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:07,080 Yeah, You could potentially summon it, Chuck it into Krong's 1027 01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:11,320 room or whatever, and shut the door and just like, you know, 1028 01:10:12,040 --> 01:10:14,280 Yeah. As long as you weren't like in 1029 01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:19,360 in the vicinity of the of the Spirit, you might have to deal 1030 01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:22,520 with it. After it's dispatched, wherever 1031 01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:28,120 you want it to, dispatch, we'll. Worry about that when we come to 1032 01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:30,360 it. Bunch of other trolls. 1033 01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:33,240 I can deal with it, you know, Just it's just an option. 1034 01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:35,760 It's just an option guys. Let me. 1035 01:10:37,040 --> 01:10:39,080 See. So as Forsten's exploring the 1036 01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:45,240 the, the effigy stone, I'm gonna do what scouts do and scout a 1037 01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:50,720 bit, if that's OK, yeah. So there is a from here, there's 1038 01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:54,960 one, there's a tunnel that leads from this room into another one. 1039 01:10:56,240 --> 01:10:59,240 Incidentally, that's effigy stone. 1040 01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:02,240 If you wanted to pick it up, it would take up one slot in your 1041 01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:08,120 inventory. So that's the other thing you 1042 01:11:08,120 --> 01:11:10,960 have to balance. What do you carry versus how 1043 01:11:10,960 --> 01:11:14,080 much fatigue you have. The more stuff you carry, the 1044 01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:16,240 the less you can do in combat, basically. 1045 01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:21,600 I have the least amount of slots of anybody left, so that's all 1046 01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:22,160 y'all. How? 1047 01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:26,360 Many do you have left. Well, I have one fatigue in one 1048 01:11:26,360 --> 01:11:28,800 of them, so I have three slots left. 1049 01:11:29,440 --> 01:11:31,320 OK. I have 5 still, Torsten. 1050 01:11:31,480 --> 01:11:33,080 How many do you have? I have. 4. 1051 01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:37,280 Because of the fatigue. Because of the fatigue, yes. 1052 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:42,280 And remember, if you if you ever, if you ever have all slots 1053 01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:46,320 filled, like 0 slots free, that reduces your resilience to 0. 1054 01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:51,560 So you can still you can still, like, fill up that last slot, 1055 01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:55,600 but it's a bit of a risky maneuver because any attack 1056 01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:57,080 would hit your Strength directly. 1057 01:12:02,720 --> 01:12:06,040 Anyone gonna pick it up? I mean Torsten. 1058 01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:07,480 I mean, it's kind of a Torsten's bag. 1059 01:12:07,480 --> 01:12:10,400 He's got enough slots to hold it for now. 1060 01:12:10,400 --> 01:12:13,520 He could always give it to me later if he's get full up, yeah. 1061 01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:15,680 I I can. I can take it, yeah. 1062 01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:17,920 You take the weird, dark, cursed object. 1063 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:22,240 Yeah, hold on to that. I love skull holds a skull 1064 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,640 thing, you know? You can always like swap 1065 01:12:25,880 --> 01:12:27,560 inventory around too, if you want. 1066 01:12:27,560 --> 01:12:30,760 Or if you wanted to like temporarily drop something it 1067 01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:32,880 won't like. Like that's absolutely fine. 1068 01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:34,640 You can come back for that sort of thing. 1069 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:40,480 OK. So yeah, there's one exit from 1070 01:12:40,480 --> 01:12:49,640 this room and you can see what looks like your torch light 1071 01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:52,800 bounces off something that looks like it's shimmering in the next 1072 01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:57,080 room but you're not quite sure. Like it looks like you see like 1073 01:12:57,640 --> 01:13:02,720 like light reflecting and refracting off of something, but 1074 01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:09,080 don't quite know what it is. OK. 1075 01:13:09,160 --> 01:13:11,600 All right. Well if, if, if they're if, if 1076 01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:14,880 Torsen still chill on with that effigy or whatever. 1077 01:13:14,880 --> 01:13:17,960 I'm gonna continue to to, I'm gonna, I'm gonna scout, I'm 1078 01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:21,640 gonna do, I'm, I'm gonna scout what he's called, you know. 1079 01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:24,720 Cool. So are you similar kind of 1080 01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:28,000 approach like going low and like seeing? 1081 01:13:28,000 --> 01:13:28,640 Sneaky. Yeah. 1082 01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:30,560 OK. Sneaky boy, yeah. 1083 01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:36,920 Yeah. So the the next room opens up. 1084 01:13:37,760 --> 01:13:42,760 It's it's like a smaller passage and there are two tunnels that 1085 01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:45,880 lead off of it. But the main thing that catches 1086 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:52,800 your eye is the Western Wall is shimmering and it like it's like 1087 01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:57,880 warping as you look at it. So it's almost as if the stone 1088 01:13:57,880 --> 01:14:03,480 itself is like moving like the surface of water, like the wall. 1089 01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:11,640 Is there anything else in the room just as two pathways in the 1090 01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:13,520 in the water wall? That's right. 1091 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:18,400 Yeah. Well, I'll. 1092 01:14:18,400 --> 01:14:21,160 I'll go back to the group and relay that. 1093 01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:23,840 If there's no enemies to see, then I'll bring. 1094 01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:26,840 I'll. Come back into the room and 1095 01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:33,160 like, this way. Come on, let's. 1096 01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:36,440 Go like at this point, Bjorn's sitting down. 1097 01:14:36,440 --> 01:14:41,400 He's stands up, starts following ya. 1098 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:46,840 Come, come, come, Torsten blew his. 1099 01:14:47,880 --> 01:14:50,920 Yeah. Yeah, Torsten's following close 1100 01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:54,520 behind, stuffing the effigy stone into his into his pockets. 1101 01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:59,200 And he says have No Fear, friend Bjorn. 1102 01:14:59,200 --> 01:15:01,120 We'll get to the killing soon enough. 1103 01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:09,160 So we see a shimmering wall. Yeah. 1104 01:15:09,160 --> 01:15:11,480 Yeah, see that you should be. Do you guys see that? 1105 01:15:12,480 --> 01:15:15,760 Go touch it. Absolutely not. 1106 01:15:16,040 --> 01:15:19,280 I dare you to, though a strong man of honor would. 1107 01:15:22,720 --> 01:15:25,400 So he walks forward and he puts his hand on the wall. 1108 01:15:26,720 --> 01:15:32,000 So it's it's essentially like putting your hand into into I 1109 01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:32,880 walk. Straight through. 1110 01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:38,240 But. So your hand goes in about 6 1111 01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:42,040 inches and then you feel like Stonewall behind it, but then 1112 01:15:42,280 --> 01:15:48,520 you feel the wall solidify around your hand and the whole 1113 01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:51,840 wall is now solid and your hand is trapped. 1114 01:16:01,800 --> 01:16:04,760 I think I'm stuck, he. Tries to. 1115 01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:08,000 Pull it out. Was it your dominant hand? 1116 01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:10,560 Yeah, I would assume so. Yeah. 1117 01:16:10,560 --> 01:16:13,280 I mean, it's what I would do, right? 1118 01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:15,200 Unconsciously you're going to reach out with your dominant 1119 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:16,200 hand. So yeah. 1120 01:16:17,560 --> 01:16:21,280 OK, if you want to roll a strength save to see if you've 1121 01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:23,400 got. If you see if you're able to 1122 01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:28,200 pull it out of the wall. If you fail the roll, there's a 1123 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:32,120 chance you would take damage from the from the effort. 1124 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:35,680 If you're not able to pull it out, just a heads up I'll. 1125 01:16:35,680 --> 01:16:38,560 Take that risk. Cool, I. 1126 01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:40,680 Rolled A12. My strength is 14. 1127 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:43,640 Excellent. So yeah, you just like push your 1128 01:16:43,640 --> 01:16:49,120 other hand against the wall and just power it out and bits of 1129 01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:53,520 wall come come away with it. It looks like normal wall now, 1130 01:16:53,600 --> 01:16:56,400 like normal stone. You've got scratches on your 1131 01:16:56,400 --> 01:17:00,200 hand, but otherwise unharmed. See no danger. 1132 01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:04,440 You know what? You're right. 1133 01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:08,960 Orston looks utterly disappointed. 1134 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:11,560 He was holding his sword and was like, oh, that would have made 1135 01:17:11,560 --> 01:17:17,040 such a good tale. I hope your lost his hand. 1136 01:17:18,480 --> 01:17:20,680 So there's no other way out of this room or? 1137 01:17:21,400 --> 01:17:25,360 Well, there's 22 passages. There's one to the east and then 1138 01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:30,080 one to the north. OK, scout guy, go look. 1139 01:17:33,560 --> 01:17:37,080 Yeah. I mean, I guess now wait a 1140 01:17:37,080 --> 01:17:45,000 second, if we went W, which direction did the passage lead 1141 01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:49,880 into that room? So you've gone W like your first 1142 01:17:49,880 --> 01:17:53,920 choice was to go West and then there was you pass through the 1143 01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:59,240 skeleton room and now it's your choices are to the north or to 1144 01:17:59,240 --> 01:18:01,360 the east. Or you could go back to where 1145 01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:04,400 you started in the pond and there's another path down that 1146 01:18:04,400 --> 01:18:11,040 way. About north, yeah. 1147 01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:12,640 I think I'm going to check out the N 1. 1148 01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:15,600 Yeah, because. East feels like it's kind of a 1149 01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:17,560 little bit. Background, yeah. 1150 01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:21,760 OK. All right. 1151 01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:31,120 So you kind of scout scout to the north, The walls start 1152 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:34,960 narrowing a little bit and the ceiling as well. 1153 01:18:35,480 --> 01:18:37,280 So it's starting to become a bit more narrow. 1154 01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:43,520 In The Cave you can hear as you get a bit closer you can hear 1155 01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:52,480 what sounds like wind whistling and the The Cave opens up 1156 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:54,160 further. So you go through a like a 1157 01:18:54,160 --> 01:18:59,560 narrow passage, then it opens up and there's a massive chasm in 1158 01:18:59,560 --> 01:19:05,560 the stone ground and above the chasm is a crumbling outcropping 1159 01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:10,440 of stone. So it was like a big chasm and 1160 01:19:10,440 --> 01:19:15,920 then part of the the stone floor slopes upwards and like looks 1161 01:19:15,920 --> 01:19:21,520 down into the chasm. Is is it so deep I can't see the 1162 01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:25,160 bottom? Yeah, is there? 1163 01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:28,240 Any way around on this chasm? Yeah you can. 1164 01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:30,280 You can. If you go carefully you can 1165 01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:34,960 navigate around it the the The Cave passage continues to the 1166 01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:39,800 north from here. OK. 1167 01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:45,240 I'll go back and relay that that it gets narrow and then you come 1168 01:19:45,240 --> 01:19:48,960 to a a large chasm. We can go around or we could 1169 01:19:49,680 --> 01:19:57,360 peek in the east as well. The chasm sounds like troll 1170 01:19:57,360 --> 01:20:01,120 country to me. A. 1171 01:20:01,480 --> 01:20:03,920 Chasm. If it's yeah, if they're three 1172 01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:06,160 times the height of man, they can just hop that, you know? 1173 01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:10,720 Yeah. All right, well, fuck the east. 1174 01:20:10,840 --> 01:20:15,040 We go north to the chasm. Absolutely. 1175 01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:19,640 So you can you can navigate around it easily enough because 1176 01:20:19,640 --> 01:20:25,320 there's no danger at the moment. If you were to need to to go 1177 01:20:25,320 --> 01:20:29,280 through the room through this area quickly, then it might be a 1178 01:20:29,280 --> 01:20:31,400 different story. But you can since you can take 1179 01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:34,960 your time, you can move up around the chasm. 1180 01:20:36,840 --> 01:20:41,120 So do you take the, so there's one side that has the, the out, 1181 01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:44,920 the outcropping and like the incline, do you go around the 1182 01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:50,560 other side? I'm interested in that 1183 01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:52,920 outcropping, personally. OK. 1184 01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:56,560 How small? Yeah, we can peek. 1185 01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:57,640 We can peek it. We can. 1186 01:20:57,680 --> 01:21:01,200 I don't want to get outcropping. Yeah, cool. 1187 01:21:02,240 --> 01:21:08,440 So as you, as you get close to it, you can feel the ground. 1188 01:21:08,440 --> 01:21:14,520 It's a little bit unstable. So you know that cave systems 1189 01:21:14,520 --> 01:21:20,760 can be pretty unpredictable. And Torsten, I think you in 1190 01:21:20,760 --> 01:21:25,200 particular would know that this probably wouldn't take a lot of 1191 01:21:25,200 --> 01:21:30,040 weight if you like, if all three of you, especially with with 1192 01:21:30,040 --> 01:21:32,880 Bjorn, if all three were were just standing on the ledge. 1193 01:21:33,880 --> 01:21:38,120 It might, it might go badly, so you can, you cannot all 1194 01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:42,240 investigate, but there's a risk of of it crumbling. 1195 01:21:44,120 --> 01:21:49,880 Orston turns around and says good fellows, Might I suggest I 1196 01:21:49,880 --> 01:21:52,640 go ahead with this path and you take the other way around? 1197 01:21:54,480 --> 01:22:00,640 Sure works I. Mumbled Tubby. 1198 01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:02,480 Orn, too. He didn't even kill that first 1199 01:22:02,480 --> 01:22:04,120 skeleton on that first shot, either. 1200 01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:13,360 All right, so Torsten, you go up on the ledge to investigate. 1201 01:22:15,160 --> 01:22:17,520 As you get up there, how are you? 1202 01:22:17,520 --> 01:22:20,800 Like, are you? How are you approaching the the 1203 01:22:20,800 --> 01:22:27,360 outcropping? Torsen's a bit like 1204 01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:29,920 lackadaisical in everything that he does. 1205 01:22:29,920 --> 01:22:34,160 So he's he's kind of just strolling, he's he's just like, 1206 01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:36,920 you know, hands behind his, behind his back, just, you know, 1207 01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:40,640 step, step. He looks over the edge into the 1208 01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:44,440 chasm, says Hmm. And it's just keeps going 1209 01:22:44,440 --> 01:22:46,120 forward. OK. 1210 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:53,840 So as you get there, you feel that the the ledge, you can feel 1211 01:22:53,840 --> 01:22:59,280 how unstable it is, but it's an unusual sensation because it's 1212 01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:05,320 feels like it's moving but it also feels incredibly sturdy. 1213 01:23:08,640 --> 01:23:12,760 And you can you're you're kind of trying to to puzzle this out 1214 01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:20,000 and you see a face turn up from the stone and look at you it's 1215 01:23:20,000 --> 01:23:25,000 it's as wide as the outcropping. It's a stone face. 1216 01:23:26,960 --> 01:23:31,440 I I look down into the stone face and say, oh hello there. 1217 01:23:33,760 --> 01:23:38,120 The. Entire ledge starts to move as 1218 01:23:38,120 --> 01:23:47,080 the enormous stone colossus that you're standing on wakes up and 1219 01:23:47,480 --> 01:23:53,520 starts stand up. Can you roll me a deck save 1220 01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:59,040 please to avoid bad outcome? That I can. 1221 01:23:59,040 --> 01:24:04,760 So my decks is 10. I rolled 18. 1222 01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:06,200 Hell yeah. Nice. 1223 01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:10,840 OK. The stone Colossus stands up and 1224 01:24:10,840 --> 01:24:15,880 you lose your footing and you start to fall into the chasm. 1225 01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:26,320 Stan and Bjorn, you have a chance to save your your friend 1226 01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:29,280 before he suffers a terrible fate. 1227 01:24:29,280 --> 01:24:31,320 What would you like to do? I. 1228 01:24:31,320 --> 01:24:34,160 Would like to try to catch him. I was gonna say I watch. 1229 01:24:34,160 --> 01:24:36,080 No, I would catch him. Yeah. 1230 01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:37,320 OK. I have a dash. 1231 01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:39,360 Well, I do. I need to. 1232 01:24:39,360 --> 01:24:43,080 That's a reaction though, right? You can use, yeah, I'd say you 1233 01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:48,200 can use it if you wanted to, to attempt to move quickly. 1234 01:24:52,760 --> 01:24:53,600 Dash. Yes. 1235 01:24:53,920 --> 01:24:59,600 So if you make a deck save. So if you make a deck save 1236 01:24:59,640 --> 01:25:03,440 you'll, I'll say you'll be able to to reach out and grab 1237 01:25:04,640 --> 01:25:09,160 Torsten. If you fail it, you're going to, 1238 01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:11,920 he's going to pull you down into the into the chasm with him. 1239 01:25:13,360 --> 01:25:18,400 I rolled A2. OK, so yeah, you you with 1240 01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:20,320 lightning reflexes, you reach out and grab them. 1241 01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:26,800 The dash causes one point of fatigue, but you do successfully 1242 01:25:27,160 --> 01:25:31,320 reach out and grab your friend and save him from imminent 1243 01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:36,200 death. So the entire room is shaking 1244 01:25:36,200 --> 01:25:45,160 now as the colossus, which was essentially standing up in the 1245 01:25:45,160 --> 01:25:52,520 chasm, well now it starts to like pull itself out of it. 1246 01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:58,960 It's bulk is filling the entire cave. 1247 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:08,040 You've heard mention of the colossi like this, and you know 1248 01:26:08,040 --> 01:26:13,320 that's they're very formidable and can easily crush like a 1249 01:26:13,320 --> 01:26:18,120 raiding party, and this one's angry that you stood on its 1250 01:26:18,120 --> 01:26:21,120 face. Listen, I don't say this often, 1251 01:26:21,200 --> 01:26:25,120 but we should leave. Are they are they sentient? 1252 01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:31,800 Can they speak? So there there's you don't quite 1253 01:26:31,800 --> 01:26:35,200 know, like no one really knows the extent of like, where they 1254 01:26:35,200 --> 01:26:39,840 came from or who created them. But they are like something that 1255 01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:44,280 comes from the gods. They're not sentient or they 1256 01:26:44,280 --> 01:26:47,200 can't speak in any way that that you know of. 1257 01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:51,760 OK, well.

Jesus. 1323 01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:54,000 I I kind of think that we should just kind of sneak and continue 1324 01:31:54,000 --> 01:31:55,920 through. I agree. 1325 01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:58,120 We're we're here for Krug and Krug alone. 1326 01:31:58,280 --> 01:31:59,280 Yeah, we're only.

Yeah, OK. 1331 01:32:13,200 --> 01:32:20,240 Yeah, you you managed to like staying low, keeping out of 1332 01:32:20,240 --> 01:32:22,840 their eyesight or like you know, as far away, like kind of 1333 01:32:22,840 --> 01:32:24,320 hugging the wall as much as you can. 1334 01:32:24,720 --> 01:32:28,680 The tunnel does continue to the north and you're able to to 1335 01:32:28,680 --> 01:32:31,320 circumvent them with without them waking up. 1336 01:32:31,520 --> 01:32:46,320 Essentially the The Cave floor descends into into a room where 1337 01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:52,480 it looks like there's been some excavation in The Cave. 1338 01:32:54,640 --> 01:32:59,560 You can see that there's been some someone or something has 1339 01:32:59,560 --> 01:33:03,960 been like digging into the walls and there are like piles of 1340 01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:12,200 stone and old discarded tools. They're much larger than than 1341 01:33:12,200 --> 01:33:16,240 human sized. So it looks like something has 1342 01:33:16,240 --> 01:33:20,680 been like digging into the stone of this room. 1343 01:33:25,440 --> 01:33:30,880 I, like, run my hands across like the Marks and I'm like, 1344 01:33:30,880 --> 01:33:35,120 wow, yeah. There's an. 1345 01:33:35,120 --> 01:33:38,800 Axe. Yeah, like looking at the 1346 01:33:39,240 --> 01:33:43,280 looking at the tool marks you can see that it was probably 1347 01:33:43,280 --> 01:33:48,200 made with like massive pickaxe and you can see like a broken 1348 01:33:50,240 --> 01:33:52,240 fire and pickaxe head on the ground. 1349 01:33:53,320 --> 01:33:57,360 Pretty crude. Like not not to the to the level 1350 01:33:57,360 --> 01:34:01,520 of or advancement that you're used to for your own blacksmith, 1351 01:34:02,480 --> 01:34:07,040 but like something massive and strong must have been like 1352 01:34:07,080 --> 01:34:10,040 digging out the walls like taking something out of therapy. 1353 01:34:10,160 --> 01:34:13,840 You can't tell what the like. There's nothing unusual in the 1354 01:34:13,840 --> 01:34:19,080 stone that you can see is. It normal for trolls to use 1355 01:34:19,080 --> 01:34:23,120 tools. Yeah, so trolls are like you, 1356 01:34:23,200 --> 01:34:29,600 you get a variety of of like sizes and temperaments and 1357 01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:32,240 intelligences. So there are, there are trolls, 1358 01:34:32,240 --> 01:34:35,600 we use tools and they're, they live in communities and that 1359 01:34:35,600 --> 01:34:38,560 sort of thing. So it's it's not out of the 1360 01:34:38,560 --> 01:34:40,840 ordinary. You don't often see it because 1361 01:34:40,840 --> 01:34:43,360 trolls keep to themselves and they're pretty aggressive 1362 01:34:43,360 --> 01:34:49,240 against interlopers. You get the the big trolls like 1363 01:34:49,240 --> 01:34:54,520 Crug who goes out and like seek, like seeks out food essentially 1364 01:34:54,520 --> 01:34:58,800 and raids, raids villages, but you get other trolls who who are 1365 01:34:58,800 --> 01:35:00,960 smaller and live in just communities. 1366 01:35:04,120 --> 01:35:09,880 Right. Yeah, I think we just continue 1367 01:35:09,880 --> 01:35:12,600 forward, right. Like, I mean, this is an 1368 01:35:12,600 --> 01:35:17,440 interesting feature that is also has terrifying implications, but 1369 01:35:17,480 --> 01:35:17,920 we're. Here. 1370 01:35:18,240 --> 01:35:21,320 To We're here to kill so. Yeah. 1371 01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:24,160 Yeah. I seek vengeance, Yeah. 1372 01:35:24,320 --> 01:35:25,800 Cool. Yeah. 1373 01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:27,720 All right. So you want to continue on? 1374 01:35:28,240 --> 01:35:30,440 I think so. John, you want to do you have 1375 01:35:30,440 --> 01:35:36,960 anything you want to do here? I'll take note of it, just that 1376 01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:41,520 who, whoever or whatever is doing this was obviously seeking 1377 01:35:41,520 --> 01:35:46,520 something out. And they either found it or they 1378 01:35:46,520 --> 01:35:48,240 didn't. Yes. 1379 01:35:50,800 --> 01:35:53,640 Or haven't yet or haven't yet. True. 1380 01:35:54,200 --> 01:35:57,680 Yeah, it does look like the tools have been abandoned for a 1381 01:35:57,680 --> 01:36:03,080 while, so. Yeah, great. 1382 01:36:04,640 --> 01:36:06,720 Everything's going great in this troll hole. 1383 01:36:06,720 --> 01:36:14,040 We're just trapped here and we have a haunted tablet and I love 1384 01:36:14,160 --> 01:36:16,800 that. Boy, soul, you know, yeah. 1385 01:36:19,720 --> 01:36:22,360 We haven't paid a patrol toll yet, so yeah, actually. 1386 01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:28,080 Well, obviously the problem. Yeah, so. 1387 01:36:28,080 --> 01:36:32,600 The The Cave tunnel like The Cave passage narrows quite a bit 1388 01:36:32,600 --> 01:36:37,400 here. It's it basically forces you to 1389 01:36:37,400 --> 01:36:44,800 move single file through through the the next area and there's a 1390 01:36:45,280 --> 01:36:56,040 fork in the road of nightmare there is a fork in the road and 1391 01:36:56,040 --> 01:37:03,680 to the north you see a room or like a a passage that ends so 1392 01:37:03,680 --> 01:37:08,680 it's a looks like a dead end and then the tunnel continues on but 1393 01:37:08,680 --> 01:37:12,120 from that dead end like it looks like a little pocket. 1394 01:37:13,040 --> 01:37:20,280 You can see that the walls are lined with glowing mushrooms and 1395 01:37:20,280 --> 01:37:22,840 it's lighting up the entire the entire room. 1396 01:37:23,280 --> 01:37:26,960 So it's like a circular style chamber, but it's it's still 1397 01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:30,600 naturally occurring and it just happens that there's mushrooms 1398 01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:34,160 growing there. Cool are. 1399 01:37:34,160 --> 01:37:36,040 We do we know anything about these rooms? 1400 01:37:36,080 --> 01:37:39,520 Are they like yummy shrooms or fon shrooms or deadly shrooms 1401 01:37:39,520 --> 01:37:44,600 or? So you know that that sometimes 1402 01:37:46,880 --> 01:37:51,600 like when you've fought off troll raiding parties like not 1403 01:37:51,680 --> 01:37:56,320 not Krug but other trolls that sometimes they they have these 1404 01:37:56,320 --> 01:38:02,600 glowing mushrooms on them, looks like they eat them and it stains 1405 01:38:02,600 --> 01:38:08,040 their their fingers and their mouths like fluorescent purple 1406 01:38:08,040 --> 01:38:11,560 essentially. So you can you can use it to 1407 01:38:11,880 --> 01:38:15,000 like it's like glowing phosphorescent but it retains 1408 01:38:15,040 --> 01:38:19,440 the the glow even after it's dead or even after you've like 1409 01:38:19,440 --> 01:38:23,440 harvested it. So some some trolls have it like 1410 01:38:23,760 --> 01:38:27,200 smeared on their mouth or like on their fingers and like it, it 1411 01:38:27,200 --> 01:38:31,480 gets everywhere and it's really bright and like identifiable but 1412 01:38:31,480 --> 01:38:36,680 you don't know why they eat it. You know that someone in your 1413 01:38:36,680 --> 01:38:40,760 village tried to eat it once and was hor horrifically sick for 1414 01:38:40,760 --> 01:38:42,440 like 2 weeks? Well. 1415 01:38:42,440 --> 01:38:51,160 There goes Bjorn's idea. I mean, we can grab some on the 1416 01:38:51,160 --> 01:38:53,120 way back if we really need to, but I feel like we can just 1417 01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:58,000 continue on I. This is a you said Sorry, this 1418 01:38:58,000 --> 01:39:00,440 is just a circular chamber like an it's an end. 1419 01:39:00,440 --> 01:39:02,160 Or like there's another path like to use for it. 1420 01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:03,880 Yeah. So there is. 1421 01:39:03,920 --> 01:39:06,600 It's like a circular chamber, but there is another path that 1422 01:39:06,600 --> 01:39:09,920 continues to the to the east, I'm. 1423 01:39:09,920 --> 01:39:12,840 Going to pluck a mushroom and just see what happens. 1424 01:39:13,480 --> 01:39:17,000 OK, yeah. So you you take it off the wall 1425 01:39:17,400 --> 01:39:21,080 and you can feel it's kind of like oily on your on your 1426 01:39:21,080 --> 01:39:25,000 fingers and it immediately starts like it transfers the 1427 01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:28,520 glow onto your fingers as well, and it continues to glow as you 1428 01:39:28,520 --> 01:39:31,680 hold it. But other than that, there's no 1429 01:39:31,680 --> 01:39:34,760 kind of reaction. Like no reaction from the other 1430 01:39:34,760 --> 01:39:38,160 mushrooms or anything like that. I just rub it on my axe, you 1431 01:39:38,160 --> 01:39:42,680 know, just just in the blade of my axe, the oil, all right. 1432 01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:49,320 Excellent. So that that effectively poisons 1433 01:39:49,320 --> 01:39:54,840 your axe, so it transfers a poison to the axe. 1434 01:39:55,400 --> 01:40:01,720 So if you hit something with it, I will tell you what poison 1435 01:40:01,720 --> 01:40:07,800 does. So yeah, if something gets hit 1436 01:40:07,800 --> 01:40:11,360 by it, they take strength damage or sorry, they take damage every 1437 01:40:11,360 --> 01:40:15,320 turn and it bypasses defence. So it's basically like a like a 1438 01:40:15,320 --> 01:40:17,600 recurring damage. Nice. 1439 01:40:18,120 --> 01:40:19,400 They have to make a straight to save. 1440 01:40:20,360 --> 01:40:23,200 Yeah, even trolls, even how they eat the stuff. 1441 01:40:24,200 --> 01:40:32,480 Yeah, because it's it's kind of like that's it's almost like a 1442 01:40:32,480 --> 01:40:35,840 narcotic so they can't help themselves from eat it and it 1443 01:40:35,840 --> 01:40:39,360 like it like corrupts them more like it eats away at them. 1444 01:40:41,680 --> 01:40:45,640 So yeah, even trolls would would take poisoned, yeah. 1445 01:40:45,640 --> 01:40:49,080 Don't do drugs kids. If do we know that well enough 1446 01:40:49,080 --> 01:40:53,360 that I could be like good idea and just like stab the mushrooms 1447 01:40:53,360 --> 01:40:55,120 and get some poison too or is that just? 1448 01:40:55,240 --> 01:40:57,240 Like just not. Aware, yeah. 1449 01:40:59,320 --> 01:41:01,400 Yeah, so you wouldn't. You wouldn't. 1450 01:41:01,400 --> 01:41:04,440 Yeah, you wouldn't be aware. And thus you attacked something 1451 01:41:04,440 --> 01:41:07,960 with it and saw an effect, yeah. Then I wouldn't because I don't 1452 01:41:07,960 --> 01:41:09,840 want to. I don't want to glow, so I 1453 01:41:09,840 --> 01:41:11,520 wouldn't be aware of it. I wouldn't want to. 1454 01:41:11,520 --> 01:41:14,680 I wouldn't just be like, oh, that's cool, let me make my 1455 01:41:15,120 --> 01:41:17,480 knives that I used to sneak with glow bright. 1456 01:41:18,880 --> 01:41:20,280 I'm going to choose not to do that. 1457 01:41:22,560 --> 01:41:22,840 Cool. Cool. 1458 01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:25,920 Yeah. So so for the let's say the next 1459 01:41:25,920 --> 01:41:28,440 two attacks after that it'll it'll wear it off. 1460 01:41:28,760 --> 01:41:31,080 The next two attacks will impart poison damage as well. 1461 01:41:31,240 --> 01:41:33,840 Nice. OK, I'm good here. 1462 01:41:33,840 --> 01:41:35,200 I'm going to. I want to keep moving forward. 1463 01:41:35,840 --> 01:41:39,000 Yeah, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll do what scouts do and try to at 1464 01:41:39,000 --> 01:41:43,280 least be one step in front of Bjorn like it's my full control 1465 01:41:43,280 --> 01:41:46,800 of Bjorn like. It's like, oh, he wants you 1466 01:41:46,800 --> 01:41:48,680 passed by him. You know it's going to squeeze 1467 01:41:48,680 --> 01:41:50,800 the side. It did said I'm short in 1468 01:41:50,800 --> 01:41:52,400 stature. I'm probably like, you know, 1469 01:41:52,440 --> 01:41:54,640 like 5-6 and Bjorn's like 7 foot tall. 1470 01:41:54,640 --> 01:42:00,160 But I'm just like, can we go? Right, You know? 1471 01:42:00,240 --> 01:42:02,040 And he's fucking yeah, I'm in here. 1472 01:42:05,600 --> 01:42:09,800 The the passage continues to the southeast. 1473 01:42:09,960 --> 01:42:14,360 So it's it's kind of looping back now from where like you've 1474 01:42:14,360 --> 01:42:19,280 gone about like around The Cave like this and now it's starting 1475 01:42:19,280 --> 01:42:24,200 to loop back so the. That it's kind of like this. 1476 01:42:24,200 --> 01:42:27,200 Are we, are we here ish? Is this a thing or we went, 1477 01:42:27,200 --> 01:42:28,680 went, went and now we're coming back around? 1478 01:42:29,440 --> 01:42:29,880 Yeah. OK. 1479 01:42:30,240 --> 01:42:33,400 It's a bit further up than that, but essentially that, yeah, 1480 01:42:36,040 --> 01:42:38,800 yeah. So the the passageway constricts 1481 01:42:38,800 --> 01:42:43,800 quite a bit and it's like the tightest it's been in this cave. 1482 01:42:44,520 --> 01:42:49,120 So you can go like you'll you'll absolutely have to go single 1483 01:42:49,120 --> 01:42:56,440 file and because it's so constrictive and because you're 1484 01:42:56,440 --> 01:43:00,680 not used to to being underground, used to like being 1485 01:43:00,680 --> 01:43:06,080 in the in the open air, you start to feel panic pressing in. 1486 01:43:08,720 --> 01:43:17,080 So you'll have to make a spirit save you can or if there is a 1487 01:43:17,080 --> 01:43:21,080 way that you would fight against the panic you can do that as 1488 01:43:21,080 --> 01:43:24,960 well rather than than kind of or that would that would take it 1489 01:43:24,960 --> 01:43:29,960 like like mechanically that's what you're doing is is trying 1490 01:43:29,960 --> 01:43:33,000 to fight the stave stave off the panic. 1491 01:43:33,360 --> 01:43:36,760 So when I rolled Bjorn, his quality is that he's very 1492 01:43:36,760 --> 01:43:43,600 tolerant. So I feel like this is not. 1493 01:43:43,600 --> 01:43:47,880 Maybe he's not as panicked about this. 1494 01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:53,200 The I would say normally that would be true, but because he's 1495 01:43:53,200 --> 01:43:56,240 so big, Oh yeah. It's true, he is massive. 1496 01:43:56,880 --> 01:44:00,520 Yeah, he's even more crushed than the rest of them. 1497 01:44:02,280 --> 01:44:07,120 I would. So yeah, so normally you'd you'd 1498 01:44:07,120 --> 01:44:11,320 roll with advantage on on your spirit safe because you're 1499 01:44:11,320 --> 01:44:17,440 tolerant, but because of you're so big that kind of nullifies 1500 01:44:17,440 --> 01:44:19,760 the advantage. So just be a straight spirit 1501 01:44:19,760 --> 01:44:20,480 Safe. That's. 1502 01:44:20,480 --> 01:44:22,560 OK, I passed anyway. So nice. 1503 01:44:22,960 --> 01:44:24,120 All. Right, so. 1504 01:44:24,120 --> 01:44:27,240 You you kind of just breathe like slow your breathing and 1505 01:44:27,400 --> 01:44:29,960 just get used to it and just get on with it. 1506 01:44:32,360 --> 01:44:36,200 Stan how did you do on your spirit Safe. 1507 01:44:36,320 --> 01:44:39,800 I'm. Looking for any way that I could 1508 01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:43,400 do better. What's your spirit? 1509 01:44:44,680 --> 01:44:47,920 Spirit is 9 nice. Yeah. 1510 01:44:50,960 --> 01:44:54,080 And I don't think I have a way, because unless somehow fire oil 1511 01:44:54,080 --> 01:44:57,120 does it for me. I mean, here's the thing. 1512 01:44:57,120 --> 01:44:58,200 Here's the thing all. Over you. 1513 01:44:58,880 --> 01:45:02,040 Yeah, I I so it does say that I have that. 1514 01:45:02,040 --> 01:45:04,200 I I have a short physique. I'm, I'm pretty. 1515 01:45:04,200 --> 01:45:08,040 I'm a small dude so maybe I don't feel quite as cramped. 1516 01:45:08,040 --> 01:45:11,400 Especially if Bjorn can fit through, I should be able to fit 1517 01:45:11,400 --> 01:45:17,040 through like pretty OK. And I'll say that you're used to 1518 01:45:17,520 --> 01:45:20,600 to being in tight spots as well as a scout. 1519 01:45:21,040 --> 01:45:22,640 Yeah, yeah. So. 1520 01:45:22,840 --> 01:45:25,360 So yeah, you can make the save with advantage. 1521 01:45:25,600 --> 01:45:27,200 Oh. God, thank you, because 17 was 1522 01:45:27,200 --> 01:45:30,200 my first role and 11 was my second role. 1523 01:45:30,200 --> 01:45:32,960 So I still fail, but not as bad. OK? 1524 01:45:33,960 --> 01:45:38,400 So I'll I'll say that because you failed, you'll you won't be 1525 01:45:38,400 --> 01:45:42,960 able to take a reaction in the next in the next combat round. 1526 01:45:46,920 --> 01:45:51,000 And John, how's How did Torsten fare? 1527 01:45:52,960 --> 01:45:57,200 Torsten fared pretty poorly. He rolled to 17 and his spirit 1528 01:45:57,200 --> 01:45:58,920 is 12. OK. 1529 01:45:58,960 --> 01:46:01,840 So yeah, yeah, I would imagine the same effect. 1530 01:46:02,600 --> 01:46:08,040 OK, yeah, yeah, we'll say that you can't take a reaction in the 1531 01:46:08,040 --> 01:46:11,760 next combat either. It only it'll only last for for 1532 01:46:11,760 --> 01:46:14,920 the initial round, just cuz you're a bit shaken and you 1533 01:46:14,920 --> 01:46:21,920 can't fully focus. OK, so you managed to navigate 1534 01:46:21,920 --> 01:46:29,200 through the the crushing walls, the thankfully the walls open 1535 01:46:29,200 --> 01:46:32,560 back up. But the room that you enter or 1536 01:46:32,560 --> 01:46:38,840 the area that you enter, it just reeks like there's a foul air in 1537 01:46:38,840 --> 01:46:45,840 the room and it smells like rot and Musk. 1538 01:46:48,720 --> 01:46:54,000 It's it's an animalistic or beastial smell that you've that 1539 01:46:54,000 --> 01:46:58,200 you've smelled something roughly equivalent, but never anything 1540 01:46:58,200 --> 01:47:00,760 this strong and never anything this pungent. 1541 01:47:05,040 --> 01:47:06,800 It. Stinks in here really bad. 1542 01:47:07,680 --> 01:47:11,520 So it's not beyond. No, not this time. 1543 01:47:13,400 --> 01:47:16,680 And there is A at the center of the room. 1544 01:47:18,720 --> 01:47:22,320 There is basically it's a. It's not a. 1545 01:47:22,600 --> 01:47:26,680 It's not as big a chasm as you saw before, but it is like 1546 01:47:26,680 --> 01:47:34,560 there's a crack in the ground and it's probably about maybe 6 1547 01:47:34,560 --> 01:47:35,920 feet across. So you. 1548 01:47:36,400 --> 01:47:38,840 You can smell the stench coming from there. 1549 01:47:39,680 --> 01:47:42,840 You can't see anything in the in the crevice I. 1550 01:47:42,880 --> 01:47:44,720 Pushed in foil, then the ghost gout. 1551 01:47:47,320 --> 01:47:53,360 Yeah, I mean. That's my job, so I, I, I wanna, 1552 01:47:53,520 --> 01:47:55,400 you, said the stench is coming from a crevice. 1553 01:47:56,280 --> 01:47:59,280 Yeah, it's so it's at the center of the of this chamber. 1554 01:48:00,520 --> 01:48:01,960 Are there any? I missed it? 1555 01:48:01,960 --> 01:48:04,720 Are there is? Is this the only thing in the 1556 01:48:04,720 --> 01:48:06,400 Chamber? Yeah. 1557 01:48:06,400 --> 01:48:11,080 So the IT continues on to the South, so you can you can 1558 01:48:11,080 --> 01:48:16,560 navigate around the edges of it and like to to like avoid the 1559 01:48:16,560 --> 01:48:19,240 crevice. There's yeah, you can go on 1560 01:48:19,280 --> 01:48:24,280 either side of it. This feels like a troll master 1561 01:48:24,280 --> 01:48:25,360 bedroom, though. Like is it? 1562 01:48:25,440 --> 01:48:28,080 Is The thing is crevice big enough to hold something three 1563 01:48:28,080 --> 01:48:34,840 times as big as B1? Depending on like, depending on 1564 01:48:34,840 --> 01:48:40,080 the configuration of it, possibly it is about 6 feet 1565 01:48:40,080 --> 01:48:46,640 across, so there could be a troll down there could. 1566 01:48:46,640 --> 01:48:49,720 Be like a like but like a CRUG. Like a CRUG troll or like a 1567 01:48:49,720 --> 01:48:52,440 regular troll? I think it's it's a big enough 1568 01:48:52,440 --> 01:48:59,520 crevice to be a Crug hole but you there was never like there 1569 01:48:59,520 --> 01:49:03,480 hasn't been mention of of a stench when it comes to Tales of 1570 01:49:03,480 --> 01:49:11,760 Crug and then Sinking Boy there's a definite stench in 1571 01:49:11,760 --> 01:49:14,680 here if. Krug sized. 1572 01:49:14,680 --> 01:49:20,120 Why not Krug? Can I? 1573 01:49:21,560 --> 01:49:26,080 Yeah. Can I scout close enough to 1574 01:49:26,920 --> 01:49:29,520 maybe try to get a glimpse of what's in the crevice? 1575 01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:32,240 Mm hmm. So. 1576 01:49:32,240 --> 01:49:34,120 How? How are you approaching it? 1577 01:49:35,600 --> 01:49:39,200 Cartwheel No. I. 1578 01:49:40,720 --> 01:49:47,560 I would like to so is it. Describe. 1579 01:49:47,600 --> 01:49:49,920 A crevice to me. So is it just like an opening in 1580 01:49:49,920 --> 01:49:51,720 the ground? Is it like a a, A. 1581 01:49:52,200 --> 01:49:54,000 Yeah. It's like a a jagged opening in 1582 01:49:54,000 --> 01:49:57,160 the ground, so it's not naturally formed. 1583 01:49:59,520 --> 01:50:03,520 It's basically just like like the the Grand Canyon, except 1584 01:50:03,520 --> 01:50:05,640 much smaller like that kind of stuff, so. 1585 01:50:05,640 --> 01:50:07,760 Yeah, just just straight in. It's not like a Yeah. 1586 01:50:11,280 --> 01:50:12,920 So the arch of our dragon as well. 1587 01:50:13,720 --> 01:50:15,080 Yeah. So I guess I'll go to one of the 1588 01:50:15,080 --> 01:50:17,800 narrow bits because I think that if something really big would to 1589 01:50:17,800 --> 01:50:19,720 come out of it, it would need to come out in the middle, you 1590 01:50:19,720 --> 01:50:22,280 know? So I wanna, I wanna skirt to the 1591 01:50:22,280 --> 01:50:26,560 edge, let's say the the western side. 1592 01:50:26,560 --> 01:50:29,960 And I wanna kind of creep up on like the narrowest portion and 1593 01:50:29,960 --> 01:50:35,640 try to get like just to like literally like barely get look 1594 01:50:35,640 --> 01:50:37,880 look into the thing looking out if it's looking out. 1595 01:50:37,880 --> 01:50:40,360 Couldn't see me either and I just want to see what the what 1596 01:50:40,360 --> 01:50:44,720 the stink is. So you you peer over into the 1597 01:50:44,720 --> 01:50:49,400 crevice and you see like clinging to the side of the 1598 01:50:49,400 --> 01:50:54,320 wall. Is this enormous like amphibian 1599 01:50:54,520 --> 01:50:58,880 or like amphibious shape, like webbed, Like webbed hands? 1600 01:50:59,320 --> 01:51:02,520 Like modeled Gray skin, like Gray and modeled skin. 1601 01:51:03,400 --> 01:51:07,360 And it's like you can see it's like oozing with something. 1602 01:51:09,360 --> 01:51:12,000 It's massive. It's probably the the size of a 1603 01:51:12,000 --> 01:51:15,800 a long ship clinging to the side of the wall, like inside the 1604 01:51:15,800 --> 01:51:23,600 crevice. I backed the buck up and I 1605 01:51:23,720 --> 01:51:31,880 gesture that we need to let go and I'll Malley and I just start 1606 01:51:31,880 --> 01:51:32,920 going.

I don't think so. 1609 01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:44,240 Oh, OK. I'm like. 1610 01:51:44,240 --> 01:51:47,160 Hugging the wall, like, going quietly, like, just gesturing 1611 01:51:47,160 --> 01:51:52,000 like. So as as you're moving around, 1612 01:51:52,000 --> 01:51:56,000 like as you're navigating around the crevice, you hear this like 1613 01:52:00,640 --> 01:52:03,000 as the thing wakes up. Yeah, a bucket. 1614 01:52:03,320 --> 01:52:06,920 I'm run, I'm run, I'm gone, He. Starts running and then Bjorn's 1615 01:52:06,920 --> 01:52:10,160 like, fucking just. Starts this heavy trot. 1616 01:52:12,400 --> 01:52:14,680 Wow, Torsten, are you close behind Bjorn? 1617 01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:19,040 If I see both of them run like, I know for a fact that I should 1618 01:52:19,040 --> 01:52:24,960 be running, so yes. So as you like run past you can 1619 01:52:24,960 --> 01:52:33,800 hear this like and this like black cloud comes out of the 1620 01:52:33,800 --> 01:52:40,040 crevice like it's like it's concentrated stank from this 1621 01:52:40,040 --> 01:52:43,720 thing coming out of the crevice. So you you managed to book it 1622 01:52:44,040 --> 01:52:48,800 and you you get a little bit on you and it like starts eating at 1623 01:52:48,800 --> 01:52:55,520 your your flesh but not badly enough to like just to kind of 1624 01:52:55,520 --> 01:52:59,720 give you a taste of it. Like black. 1625 01:53:00,520 --> 01:53:05,640 No, no, you've yeah, you managed to to avoid it but it like it's 1626 01:53:05,640 --> 01:53:09,680 on the like the backs of your arms and it raises like black 1627 01:53:09,680 --> 01:53:14,040 hives. Yeah, you would not want to to 1628 01:53:14,040 --> 01:53:20,080 be in that cloud for very long, but you do manage to to avoid 1629 01:53:20,080 --> 01:53:22,000 it. And it doesn't sound like it's 1630 01:53:22,000 --> 01:53:26,120 coming after you like it, the the thing, whatever it was 1631 01:53:27,120 --> 01:53:32,920 staying in its crevice. And you'll be glad to know that 1632 01:53:32,920 --> 01:53:38,240 where you've run to there is a bonfire at the center of of a 1633 01:53:38,240 --> 01:53:43,520 corridor of like like crossroads. 1634 01:53:43,520 --> 01:53:49,520 Essentially like there's three exits, one that you came from 1635 01:53:49,760 --> 01:53:52,200 one to the southwest and then one to the east. 1636 01:53:52,560 --> 01:53:56,760 But there's like a crackling bonfire that you can you can use 1637 01:53:56,760 --> 01:53:59,760 if you would like. I think so. 1638 01:54:00,640 --> 01:54:01,760 There's. Like a safe spot, right? 1639 01:54:01,760 --> 01:54:02,960 Like we dab. We come back to this one. 1640 01:54:03,880 --> 01:54:08,680 Yeah, so even you also went, if you sit down at the bonfire, it 1641 01:54:08,680 --> 01:54:15,040 will rejuvenate or bring back to life all the the lesser 1642 01:54:15,040 --> 01:54:18,360 creatures that you defeated. So the skeletons, for instance, 1643 01:54:19,000 --> 01:54:25,640 will be back, but you're you think you're far enough away 1644 01:54:25,640 --> 01:54:30,160 from them like you're you got a little bit turned around in The 1645 01:54:30,160 --> 01:54:33,760 Cave or your, you know, your sense of geography isn't as good 1646 01:54:33,760 --> 01:54:36,480 as it could be, but you think you're far enough away that 1647 01:54:36,600 --> 01:54:38,320 that's not really a consideration. 1648 01:54:39,040 --> 01:54:40,760 We can. Most of us can just punch out 1649 01:54:40,800 --> 01:54:42,360 those anyway. Yeah. 1650 01:54:43,960 --> 01:54:47,800 So yeah, if you if you rest of the bonfire, that will heal all 1651 01:54:47,800 --> 01:54:51,280 fatigue, and if you've taken any damage, that will heal that as 1652 01:54:51,280 --> 01:54:53,480 well. And I don't think anyone drank 1653 01:54:53,480 --> 01:54:56,520 any Mead, so that won't affect that. 1654 01:54:57,640 --> 01:55:00,240 Yeah, I also love how we're such classic OSR players. 1655 01:55:00,240 --> 01:55:02,880 We see big monster and we're like leave, bail, leave, leave. 1656 01:55:02,960 --> 01:55:03,720 This is dead. Go go. 1657 01:55:04,080 --> 01:55:06,560 Go. This is. 1658 01:55:07,040 --> 01:55:09,880 The same balance for us, we. Set the bonfire. 1659 01:55:09,880 --> 01:55:12,720 You know, I like. I take my spear out and I stab 1660 01:55:12,720 --> 01:55:16,520 into the ground and I start like oiling my boots because I assume 1661 01:55:16,520 --> 01:55:19,840 it's like fairly wet in here and I don't want the leather to, you 1662 01:55:19,840 --> 01:55:21,960 know, degrade and we take our little break. 1663 01:55:24,360 --> 01:55:28,560 Stan, what do you do as as Bjorn's doing his like bonfire 1664 01:55:28,560 --> 01:55:31,480 ritual or his like maintenance, yeah. 1665 01:55:31,480 --> 01:55:34,080 I guess, I mean I'll, I'll do a similar maintenance. 1666 01:55:34,080 --> 01:55:38,320 I'll, I'll try to scrape off some of the the black goop that 1667 01:55:38,320 --> 01:55:40,640 got on us. But I want to like, sharpen my 1668 01:55:40,640 --> 01:55:42,600 knives a little bit. I want to check the fletchings 1669 01:55:42,600 --> 01:55:44,280 on my arrows. I want to make sure everything's 1670 01:55:44,280 --> 01:55:48,080 all nice and tight, you know, and do that so. 1671 01:55:48,080 --> 01:55:51,160 What's the sorry one more time, the room that we're in, Yeah, 1672 01:55:51,440 --> 01:55:53,400 we've circled back or we're going South now. 1673 01:55:54,200 --> 01:55:57,520 Yeah, so you've gone around the the edge of The Cave. 1674 01:55:57,920 --> 01:56:02,360 Now you're coming back down this way, so you're not as far South 1675 01:56:02,480 --> 01:56:07,720 as you started. You'd say you're about the same 1676 01:56:08,640 --> 01:56:15,640 distance away from the the the Stone Colossus, but yeah, on the 1677 01:56:15,640 --> 01:56:22,160 other side. Torsten, will you do anything as 1678 01:56:22,160 --> 01:56:26,720 you sit around the the bonfire? Yeah. 1679 01:56:27,600 --> 01:56:32,360 So Torsten is a scald, he. So he keeps pretty much like 1680 01:56:32,360 --> 01:56:39,720 precise records of events like to you know chronicle them in 1681 01:56:39,720 --> 01:56:44,040 sagas. So he has like this like square 1682 01:56:44,040 --> 01:56:47,960 of cloth that he sort of like, like just sort of like his cuts 1683 01:56:47,960 --> 01:56:50,520 that he's like gotten from from the combat today. 1684 01:56:50,520 --> 01:56:54,080 He takes like a a stick and uses the blood from his cuts to like 1685 01:56:54,080 --> 01:56:58,520 dab, like like incantations into the sagas. 1686 01:56:59,280 --> 01:57:03,520 Well, so. And you as a skull, do you know 1687 01:57:03,520 --> 01:57:10,080 that you like or you part of what you do is retell tales like 1688 01:57:10,240 --> 01:57:14,440 to to the residents of the village and and that's how like 1689 01:57:14,480 --> 01:57:17,240 you pass knowledge on and that's how you gain knowledge is by 1690 01:57:17,320 --> 01:57:19,200 learning from other other skulls as well. 1691 01:57:19,600 --> 01:57:24,000 So yeah you you're documenting chronicling your adventures so 1692 01:57:24,000 --> 01:57:27,120 far in The Cave. All right. 1693 01:57:28,400 --> 01:57:35,680 So the so you've got 3A, a choice of three ways to go. 1694 01:57:36,040 --> 01:57:38,000 You probably won't want to go back north because that's where 1695 01:57:38,000 --> 01:57:46,960 the the stinking cloud and the enormous amphibian is there. 1696 01:57:46,960 --> 01:57:55,520 To the southwest, there's like a passage that the narrows and and 1697 01:57:56,080 --> 01:58:00,160 leads back in the general direction where you came from. 1698 01:58:01,360 --> 01:58:06,240 And then to the east you can hear what sounds like running 1699 01:58:06,240 --> 01:58:09,800 water or rushing water. You can hear it over the the 1700 01:58:09,800 --> 01:58:15,480 crackle of the bonfire. I think was just. 1701 01:58:15,800 --> 01:58:17,160 You didn't go east. OK, cool. 1702 01:58:17,360 --> 01:58:19,080 Well, because. The premise Southwest is, if it 1703 01:58:19,080 --> 01:58:22,200 narrows, the Krug can't fit through that. 1704 01:58:22,200 --> 01:58:23,400 Mm hmm. Mm hmm. 1705 01:58:23,960 --> 01:58:25,480 Mm hmm. Mm hmm. 1706 01:58:25,880 --> 01:58:28,200 OK, I'm fine with that, Ellen. 'S like they go the wrong way 1707 01:58:28,200 --> 01:58:31,880 but the Owen. 'S a little turned around, so 1708 01:58:31,880 --> 01:58:35,520 he's like, yeah, sure. I know Southwest goes back 1709 01:58:35,520 --> 01:58:38,920 towards the direction we've already been, which I mean also 1710 01:58:38,920 --> 01:58:43,760 is kind of the direction where some of the trolls were, but I 1711 01:58:43,760 --> 01:58:48,080 mean, if I was a big old troll, I would want to be near water 1712 01:58:48,080 --> 01:58:51,240 because I could bathe wash you want. 1713 01:58:51,360 --> 01:58:54,680 To you want to break the tie. People off me. 1714 01:58:59,240 --> 01:59:01,920 Wow, Walter. Makes sense to me. 1715 01:59:02,320 --> 01:59:04,880 I say we go east. East it is. 1716 01:59:05,560 --> 01:59:06,200 Yeah, water. OK. 1717 01:59:07,960 --> 01:59:10,360 All right. Don't touch the walls. 1718 01:59:10,760 --> 01:59:14,160 Just in case. Or do you know, yeah. 1719 01:59:15,320 --> 01:59:20,680 So, so you kind of you head east from the the safety and comfort 1720 01:59:20,680 --> 01:59:26,960 of the bonfire and The Cave opens up and you can you can 1721 01:59:26,960 --> 01:59:29,240 like it's a lot. You can feel the moisture in the 1722 01:59:29,240 --> 01:59:33,120 air and you can hear the the rush of of what you assume is a 1723 01:59:33,120 --> 01:59:39,120 waterfall and there is a stream or like there's a there's water 1724 01:59:39,120 --> 01:59:43,640 that cuts across the path and it leads into a massive waterfall. 1725 01:59:44,600 --> 01:59:49,040 That's so you're you're standing at the top of the waterfall now. 1726 01:59:49,640 --> 01:59:51,520 Yeah. There's and there's like water 1727 01:59:53,640 --> 02:00:00,040 like at your feet and so you see you can look over and see the 1728 02:00:00,040 --> 02:00:05,200 waterfall like rushing or. Like falling into The Cave, 1729 02:00:06,160 --> 02:00:12,240 there's a stream that leads like underneath the stone walls and 1730 02:00:12,240 --> 02:00:15,320 at the bottom of the waterfall the the stream continues there 1731 02:00:15,320 --> 02:00:17,360 as well. So it's the whole path is 1732 02:00:17,360 --> 02:00:22,840 basically covered by the waterfall and there's the path 1733 02:00:23,240 --> 02:00:27,320 continues at the bottom and then The Cave continues from there. 1734 02:00:27,320 --> 02:00:31,040 So it's basically like like big section of water and then cave 1735 02:00:31,040 --> 02:00:39,200 again. And. 1736 02:00:39,200 --> 02:00:42,520 We'll do we need to like jump off the waterfall or do we like? 1737 02:00:43,560 --> 02:00:45,240 You. You could, yeah you could. 1738 02:00:48,040 --> 02:00:55,040 Like the the the force, the waterfall is pretty strong so 1739 02:00:55,040 --> 02:00:59,080 you'd have to take care and not like to not get knocked over by 1740 02:00:59,080 --> 02:01:01,680 the by the waterfall. But you if you went slowly, you 1741 02:01:01,680 --> 02:01:04,440 could descend the waterfall pretty safely. 1742 02:01:05,040 --> 02:01:06,600 It would just take a bit of time to get down. 1743 02:01:10,360 --> 02:01:15,640 Better safe than sorry. Yeah, I mean very true. 1744 02:01:16,200 --> 02:01:23,040 Yeah. And how does the waterfall, it's 1745 02:01:23,040 --> 02:01:27,280 about 10 feet tall. So you're yeah you're you're at 1746 02:01:27,280 --> 02:01:30,520 the top and it's about 10 foot down to the to where the water's 1747 02:01:30,520 --> 02:01:33,600 gathering in a basin like in the stream at the bottom. 1748 02:01:34,160 --> 02:01:35,920 Yeah, I was thinking like 60 feet or something. 1749 02:01:35,920 --> 02:01:39,440 I was gonna be like. Yeah, yeah. 1750 02:01:39,720 --> 02:01:42,160 Well, yeah. Are we gonna get wet either way? 1751 02:01:43,040 --> 02:01:44,560 Yeah. Well then fuck it. 1752 02:01:44,560 --> 02:01:49,320 I jump cuz I can't imagine B1 has jumped already. 1753 02:01:52,080 --> 02:01:56,360 Yeah, you know it. And Torsten, how would you like 1754 02:01:56,360 --> 02:01:59,240 to? All right. 1755 02:02:00,400 --> 02:02:04,880 Thorsten sees sees Sten jump and he says. 1756 02:02:07,800 --> 02:02:10,160 Can't. Beat him, join them and he jumps 1757 02:02:10,160 --> 02:02:13,840 as well over the side, OK? Yeah, there's. 1758 02:02:14,120 --> 02:02:17,440 You can tell by like where you are looking down into the where 1759 02:02:17,440 --> 02:02:20,400 the water gathers at the basin at the bottom that there is 1760 02:02:21,280 --> 02:02:26,280 enough like clearance that you wouldn't hurt yourself, like 1761 02:02:26,800 --> 02:02:28,760 jumping down and you wouldn't like break your legs or 1762 02:02:28,760 --> 02:02:31,240 anything. So you jump down into the water. 1763 02:02:35,520 --> 02:02:42,520 As soon as you hit the water you hear like this melodious music 1764 02:02:42,840 --> 02:02:45,600 fill your ears. You didn't. 1765 02:02:45,600 --> 02:02:48,040 It wasn't playing before, you couldn't hear it before. 1766 02:02:48,400 --> 02:02:51,360 But as soon as both of you hit the water you can. 1767 02:02:51,360 --> 02:02:55,880 Your senses are just filled with this what sounds like harp music 1768 02:03:01,280 --> 02:03:10,480 and as soon as you hit the water as well you just feel incredibly 1769 02:03:10,720 --> 02:03:18,360 drowsy. Hunter The other two have jumped 1770 02:03:18,360 --> 02:03:23,400 into the waterfall when they when they made contact with the 1771 02:03:23,400 --> 02:03:25,880 water.

OK. 1774 02:03:34,120 --> 02:03:35,720 Bjorn would have definitely done that as well. 1775 02:03:35,760 --> 02:03:39,520 Just so we're like, so he's also in there? 1776 02:03:39,520 --> 02:03:42,360 Yeah, he might have jumped in first, Actually, that's. 1777 02:03:42,720 --> 02:03:46,960 That's that's what I said. No, so. 1778 02:03:48,080 --> 02:03:53,200 What's What this translates to mechanically is that everyone 1779 02:03:54,400 --> 02:03:59,640 your inventory's filled with fatigue, so you're at 0 1780 02:03:59,640 --> 02:04:06,640 resilience and the the music is just filling your your senses. 1781 02:04:07,280 --> 02:04:09,560 Can everyone make a spirit safe please? 1782 02:04:11,880 --> 02:04:25,400 My worst at. I failed I succeed I. 1783 02:04:25,400 --> 02:04:33,120 Also succeed.

So you you have control of 1786 02:04:45,200 --> 02:04:51,040 yourself now, but you're still, you still feel lead and weight 1787 02:04:51,040 --> 02:04:54,880 down. Bjorn, you're still kind of 1788 02:04:56,040 --> 02:04:58,920 essentially falling asleep. Very. 1789 02:04:58,920 --> 02:05:05,400 Important thing to do. Can we drag him out? 1790 02:05:07,280 --> 02:05:08,960 Yep. It would take both of you 1791 02:05:08,960 --> 02:05:12,600 because you're so big, yeah. The great the perfect person to 1792 02:05:13,720 --> 02:05:17,360 fall asleep because they're our fucking set foot giant, yeah. 1793 02:05:18,120 --> 02:05:24,160 So you you drag him out of the water as soon as stand and 1794 02:05:24,160 --> 02:05:28,160 Torsten as soon as you as soon as your body lose like leaves 1795 02:05:28,160 --> 02:05:31,800 contact with the water, you feel yourselves again. 1796 02:05:31,800 --> 02:05:35,080 You feel no longer feel the fatigue. 1797 02:05:35,120 --> 02:05:39,000 It's gone from your inventory, Bjorn. 1798 02:05:39,120 --> 02:05:44,280 You're still weighed down and you're basically asleep, even 1799 02:05:44,280 --> 02:05:50,760 pulled out of the water. You can hear the the harp still 1800 02:05:52,160 --> 02:05:58,280 and there's a a rock at the center of the the waterfall that 1801 02:05:58,280 --> 02:06:00,520 you didn't see before. It wasn't there before. 1802 02:06:01,760 --> 02:06:06,640 And there is a naked young man sitting on the on the rock 1803 02:06:06,920 --> 02:06:12,320 playing a harp and the water is like flowing over over its form 1804 02:06:12,880 --> 02:06:17,320 or his form. He's got like spiked ears or 1805 02:06:17,320 --> 02:06:23,560 like elongated ears, Torsten, you'll have run into or you'll 1806 02:06:23,560 --> 02:06:27,400 have heard tales of these of this type of spirit. 1807 02:06:28,080 --> 02:06:31,840 It's a it's a false dweller. So it's a it's a spirit that 1808 02:06:31,840 --> 02:06:35,560 lives within the the waterfall and you know that they're 1809 02:06:35,800 --> 02:06:46,080 devious and very Trixie. Torsten sees this, this spirit, 1810 02:06:46,240 --> 02:06:51,280 and turns to his Bjorn's still asleep, but he turns to Sten. 1811 02:06:52,240 --> 02:06:57,560 He turns to Sten and says let us let us leave this place. 1812 02:06:57,560 --> 02:07:01,720 So this is this is a devious spirit that we should not meddle 1813 02:07:01,720 --> 02:07:04,640 with. Hey. 1814 02:07:04,680 --> 02:07:08,840 Guys, where are you going? I don't disagree with you, but 1815 02:07:08,840 --> 02:07:11,400 we can't carry Bjorn. We can drag him out of the 1816 02:07:11,400 --> 02:07:15,960 water, but I don't think we can. Smack him awake. 1817 02:07:16,840 --> 02:07:21,240 I I ignore the voice and just smack the shit out of Bjorn. 1818 02:07:23,400 --> 02:07:27,120 So you hit him hard enough and he takes one point of res 1819 02:07:27,120 --> 02:07:30,000 damage, but he wakes up. Yes. 1820 02:07:30,240 --> 02:07:33,680 Does that bypass my armor? It does, yeah. 1821 02:07:34,600 --> 02:07:36,400 Because you're you're basically flat out. 1822 02:07:37,320 --> 02:07:38,360 And I'm not hitting you in the armor. 1823 02:07:38,360 --> 02:07:39,280 I'm not. I didn't punch you in the 1824 02:07:39,280 --> 02:07:44,960 stomach. The the the figure on the stone 1825 02:07:45,480 --> 02:07:47,640 laughs and says, Why are you hitting your friend? 1826 02:07:47,640 --> 02:07:52,720 What are you doing? Just ignore him. 1827 02:07:53,680 --> 02:07:54,440 Just ignore him. I had a. 1828 02:07:54,440 --> 02:07:57,400 Dream that, He done offered me her gorgeous round apple. 1829 02:07:57,560 --> 02:08:04,040 If you don't, I mean. That sounds very nice, Bjorn, 1830 02:08:04,040 --> 02:08:10,040 but we need to get out of here. So I is my so my slots are full 1831 02:08:10,040 --> 02:08:14,640 of fatigue right now, correct? Yes, but that, that the further 1832 02:08:14,640 --> 02:08:19,840 you get from the water and the the spirit, the the more that's 1833 02:08:19,840 --> 02:08:21,400 going to clear start clearing, OK. 1834 02:08:23,400 --> 02:08:26,960 OK, when? Let's leave. 1835 02:08:30,760 --> 02:08:35,200 The Cave continues to the South. Is there anything more you want 1836 02:08:35,200 --> 02:08:39,760 to do here or you just want to take Bjorn and and book it? 1837 02:08:40,480 --> 02:08:45,800 I wanna, I wanna ignore the the, the young, the young gent there 1838 02:08:46,520 --> 02:08:48,120 just being like, what are you doing? 1839 02:08:48,320 --> 02:08:49,960 Stop hitting yourself. Like this? 1840 02:08:52,240 --> 02:08:53,240 Guy and. So as you, Yeah, Stop. 1841 02:08:54,320 --> 02:08:58,360 Hitting yourself just. All. 1842 02:08:58,360 --> 02:09:02,280 Right as you kind of drag Bjorn out and leave the leave the 1843 02:09:02,280 --> 02:09:06,080 presence of the waterfall, you hear the the harp like play like 1844 02:09:07,400 --> 02:09:12,080 and the the the young man laughs and then disappears. 1845 02:09:14,120 --> 02:09:27,160 All right. So now you're in a a cave kind 1846 02:09:27,160 --> 02:09:32,200 of square shaped cave. The there's two passages, 1 1847 02:09:32,200 --> 02:09:37,040 continues to the southwest and one continues to the east. 1848 02:09:37,960 --> 02:09:48,880 So from the southwest you can hear what sounds like something 1849 02:09:49,000 --> 02:09:55,040 scraping on stone, and you can hear what sounds like bones 1850 02:09:55,040 --> 02:10:03,120 crunching or eating noises. And then to the east you can 1851 02:10:03,120 --> 02:10:07,440 hear something or someone muttering to itself. 1852 02:10:11,280 --> 02:10:13,320 I say. Bone crunching noises, yeah. 1853 02:10:13,360 --> 02:10:18,760 Sounds trollish to me, yeah? Yeah, so. 1854 02:10:18,760 --> 02:10:20,760 You all right? Just ignore the mutter. 1855 02:10:21,240 --> 02:10:23,400 And yeah, that's fine. That's the way else's problem. 1856 02:10:26,480 --> 02:10:26,960 Yeah. All right. 1857 02:10:26,960 --> 02:10:33,240 So you go to the Southwest, Stan. 1858 02:10:33,240 --> 02:10:35,480 Are you leading the way? Like, scouting the way? 1859 02:10:35,880 --> 02:10:39,240 Yep. I'll, I'll be, I'll be in the 1860 02:10:39,240 --> 02:10:44,480 fronts. Cool, so you see you. 1861 02:10:45,000 --> 02:10:49,840 You see like you enter a massive circular chamber and you can see 1862 02:10:49,840 --> 02:10:54,080 what looks like living stone, like a form of living stone, 1863 02:10:54,640 --> 02:10:58,440 crouched and hunched over on all fours at the centre of the of 1864 02:10:58,440 --> 02:11:01,000 the room. And just like taking massive 1865 02:11:01,000 --> 02:11:07,480 chunks, tearing chunks out of like an enormous corpse with 1866 02:11:07,480 --> 02:11:13,120 pale skin and black hair, you recognize that it's eating like 1867 02:11:13,120 --> 02:11:14,920 the thing. Whatever it is, it's eating a 1868 02:11:14,920 --> 02:11:18,680 troll. Oh dope, I back up. 1869 02:11:22,480 --> 02:11:24,920 Massive stone form. So it's not another stone, 1870 02:11:24,920 --> 02:11:27,120 Colossus. It's different, no? 1871 02:11:27,160 --> 02:11:30,280 Yeah. So this is it's more like it's 1872 02:11:30,280 --> 02:11:33,880 smaller than a stone colossus, but it it looks like it's made 1873 02:11:33,880 --> 02:11:38,520 of living stone, and it's spikier than the stone colossus 1874 02:11:38,520 --> 02:11:42,960 was. It's also, it seems to be more 1875 02:11:42,960 --> 02:11:47,920 agile than the stone Colossus was, and it's just like using 1876 02:11:47,920 --> 02:11:52,800 like great stone jaws like stone Ma, just tearing chunks out of 1877 02:11:52,800 --> 02:11:56,680 this troll corpse. I crouched down like, OK, maybe 1878 02:11:56,680 --> 02:12:01,040 mumbling was the way to go. I thought I vote muttering. 1879 02:12:01,640 --> 02:12:03,440 Yeah. I think we're going to backtrack 1880 02:12:03,840 --> 02:12:07,920 slowly back away, you know, and then go the other direction 1881 02:12:07,920 --> 02:12:11,040 towards the mumbling. Cool. 1882 02:12:11,800 --> 02:12:20,960 Probably a good idea right? So in the so the the mumbling, 1883 02:12:21,480 --> 02:12:28,880 you can see a hunched form. It's it's there's like six or 1884 02:12:28,880 --> 02:12:32,920 seven piles around the around The Cave room and there's this 1885 02:12:32,920 --> 02:12:35,920 hunched form like digging through the piles. 1886 02:12:37,000 --> 02:12:42,280 It's got really long arms and stone skin. 1887 02:12:45,480 --> 02:12:48,560 It. Looks a bit like a troll, but 1888 02:12:48,960 --> 02:12:53,840 it's a lot stonier and like it looks more primitive than a 1889 02:12:53,840 --> 02:12:57,680 troll. You would recognize this as a 1890 02:12:57,680 --> 02:13:01,080 rock troll, so a kind of a distant cousin of a troll. 1891 02:13:02,000 --> 02:13:07,760 A bit less intelligent than trolls can be, and also a bit 1892 02:13:07,760 --> 02:13:11,080 more brutish than trolls. So there's they don't tend to 1893 02:13:11,080 --> 02:13:14,400 live in societies like trolls do or in in communities like trolls 1894 02:13:14,400 --> 02:13:20,280 do or some trolls. And it's also covered in this 1895 02:13:20,280 --> 02:13:23,200 like red lichen that's growing on its skin. 1896 02:13:24,160 --> 02:13:26,600 So it's it looks like it's digging through these like piles 1897 02:13:26,600 --> 02:13:31,240 of this pile of stuff you can see from a distance. 1898 02:13:31,240 --> 02:13:35,280 They're like it's just like odds and ends like it's like a 1899 02:13:35,400 --> 02:13:40,680 snapped off Arrowhead or like the handle of a of a wooden 1900 02:13:40,680 --> 02:13:44,520 tankard, just like bits and bobs of crap. 1901 02:13:44,800 --> 02:13:48,240 And it's digging through like sorting into into piles. 1902 02:13:50,160 --> 02:13:52,560 It's got, it's it's on the ground, it's got it's back. 1903 02:13:52,560 --> 02:13:55,360 Turn to you. Is that are they like in 1904 02:13:55,360 --> 02:13:58,240 individual rooms or they pass through or? 1905 02:13:59,600 --> 02:14:05,080 So it's it's in the eastern side of this room and the the tunnel 1906 02:14:05,080 --> 02:14:09,320 continues to the north, but the piles are are spread out all 1907 02:14:09,320 --> 02:14:14,840 over the room. Do we just? 1908 02:14:15,040 --> 02:14:17,480 Run through do we? Go back the way we came. 1909 02:14:17,480 --> 02:14:22,120 I mean, this ain't Crug. Yeah, you said you said it was a 1910 02:14:22,120 --> 02:14:23,720 rock troll. Yeah. 1911 02:14:24,920 --> 02:14:30,280 MMM. Yeah, I mean, eventually we're 1912 02:14:30,280 --> 02:14:31,520 going to probably have to fight something. 1913 02:14:33,240 --> 02:14:35,960 It'd be just be nice if that thing was Krug, yeah. 1914 02:14:37,640 --> 02:14:41,920 I say we tried to move through this room warily. 1915 02:14:41,920 --> 02:14:46,440 Mm hmm.

He will strike you with the 2142 02:31:03,440 --> 02:31:09,400 lightning bolt unless you choose to react Torsten, or you can 2143 02:31:09,840 --> 02:31:13,360 take the the hit, but it's a magical hit so it bypasses 2144 02:31:13,360 --> 02:31:16,760 armor. Oh, I'm going to react like 2145 02:31:16,760 --> 02:31:19,600 absolutely, I'm going to shout. No question about it. 2146 02:31:20,880 --> 02:31:27,600 All right, so you you summon your own, the you summon the 2147 02:31:27,600 --> 02:31:34,520 power of the land through the runic focus and you shout And if 2148 02:31:34,520 --> 02:31:39,840 you can give me a spirit save for that, please, with with 2149 02:31:39,840 --> 02:31:45,600 advantage, just because of the the epic scene that you just 2150 02:31:45,600 --> 02:31:50,080 witnessed. Didn't help 15 and 16 and my 2151 02:31:50,080 --> 02:31:52,280 spirit is 12. OK. 2152 02:31:52,880 --> 02:32:01,120 So your your your, your faith is shaken by the the appearance of 2153 02:32:01,120 --> 02:32:06,080 this black fetch and a clear visibility or like clear 2154 02:32:06,080 --> 02:32:09,080 indication that the gods, the power of the gods still exists 2155 02:32:09,080 --> 02:32:14,880 in this in these realms. So the black fetch rears back 2156 02:32:14,960 --> 02:32:26,480 and strikes down with the lightning bolt or five damage, 2157 02:32:26,480 --> 02:32:29,760 and it bypasses all your bypasses your armor. 2158 02:32:29,760 --> 02:32:32,720 So you take 5 resilience damage, just five straight. 2159 02:32:32,720 --> 02:32:36,600 Gotcha. OK, I'm still standing, but but 2160 02:32:36,600 --> 02:32:41,400 Torsten's hair is standing on end and he's smoldering and he's 2161 02:32:41,400 --> 02:32:47,200 like, run. Great. 2162 02:32:48,160 --> 02:32:55,120 Yeah, so Stan in the Bjorn. So the black fetch is between 2163 02:32:55,120 --> 02:33:00,560 you and the entrance, so it's standing because Stan, you were 2164 02:33:00,560 --> 02:33:05,000 behind the troll. So what would you like to do? 2165 02:33:05,000 --> 02:33:07,240 You can either you can, you can do whatever you want, you can 2166 02:33:07,240 --> 02:33:09,000 attack, or you can choose to run. 2167 02:33:09,880 --> 02:33:12,400 Do I speak? Oh yeah, it's user, sorry. 2168 02:33:13,120 --> 02:33:15,600 Oh. Yeah, no, I run like like I run. 2169 02:33:16,280 --> 02:33:19,720 Yeah, I would like to run. Cool. 2170 02:33:19,840 --> 02:33:21,400 And Bjorn, Yeah. Do. 2171 02:33:21,640 --> 02:33:25,520 I like would Bjorn think that destroying that stone would UN 2172 02:33:25,520 --> 02:33:30,440 summon this thing? It's, yeah, it's it's absolutely 2173 02:33:30,440 --> 02:33:32,920 worth a shot. I think I'm going to take that 2174 02:33:32,920 --> 02:33:36,640 shot. I'm going to strike down on it 2175 02:33:36,640 --> 02:33:38,680 with my axe. Cool. 2176 02:33:38,960 --> 02:33:41,120 So you don't have to, don't have to roll for that or anything. 2177 02:33:41,120 --> 02:33:45,040 It's just like a carved figure card effigy. 2178 02:33:45,640 --> 02:33:50,040 So you bring your axe down on it, it strikes the stone or 2179 02:33:50,040 --> 02:33:55,720 strikes the the carved figure with a Thunder crack and you see 2180 02:33:55,720 --> 02:34:01,400 the the black fetch rear back as if it was struck itself. 2181 02:34:02,720 --> 02:34:08,320 And then it's you hear another Thunder crack and it disappears 2182 02:34:09,520 --> 02:34:13,640 and leaves a charge like charred circle around the effigy stone 2183 02:34:14,160 --> 02:34:19,000 as it's now broken. All right, congratulations. 2184 02:34:19,000 --> 02:34:23,440 You've slain the troll, you've defeated the Black fetch, and 2185 02:34:23,440 --> 02:34:28,160 you've conquered the The Cave. Nice work. 2186 02:34:28,560 --> 02:34:34,800 We did it. Just just another day for Orston 2187 02:34:34,800 --> 02:34:38,560 the Scald. Yeah, great adventure. 2188 02:34:39,440 --> 02:34:42,960 It was really good. Can we say at the Yeah, the last 2189 02:34:42,960 --> 02:34:45,480 thing I want to do when we leave The Cave is to go grab those 2190 02:34:45,480 --> 02:34:49,600 corpses of the missing absolutely everything. 2191 02:34:50,600 --> 02:34:54,120 So yeah, so you'd, yeah, you'd be able to navigate like You 2192 02:34:54,120 --> 02:34:58,280 can't go back exactly the same way, but you can navigate your 2193 02:34:58,280 --> 02:35:01,800 way out of The Cave from here. Cuz you're you fairly close to 2194 02:35:01,800 --> 02:35:03,200 the the entrance where you came in. 2195 02:35:04,960 --> 02:35:05,680 Great. Hell yeah. 2196 02:35:06,520 --> 02:35:07,920 Yeah. Awesome. 2197 02:35:07,960 --> 02:35:09,840 And that was. Ruined care and Warrens. 2198 02:35:09,840 --> 02:35:12,600 That was so much fun. Awesome. 2199 02:35:13,000 --> 02:35:15,240 Yeah, it was nice. So it works. 2200 02:35:15,280 --> 02:35:17,520 Great with three people. Yeah. 2201 02:35:17,520 --> 02:35:21,040 Absolutely. Well. 2202 02:35:21,040 --> 02:35:21,680 Cool. I think the. 2203 02:35:22,880 --> 02:35:26,040 The only tripping point would be if one of you died. 2204 02:35:27,760 --> 02:35:33,000 How does how does the bonfire resurrection work So like it 2205 02:35:33,000 --> 02:35:35,840 would it depend on on the warden running it? 2206 02:35:36,160 --> 02:35:39,960 It could be that that they have to wait until the end of the 2207 02:35:39,960 --> 02:35:44,880 fight and then they can respawn at the bonfire rather than like 2208 02:35:44,880 --> 02:35:47,000 having three people running around. 2209 02:35:47,560 --> 02:35:51,960 Or it could be that that everyone is defeated at the same 2210 02:35:51,960 --> 02:35:53,720 time. I think we'd better for like one 2211 02:35:53,720 --> 02:35:56,840 person just would have to wait out and then wait out the fight, 2212 02:35:57,080 --> 02:35:57,720 yeah. I agree. 2213 02:35:58,480 --> 02:36:00,200 Yeah. It's other OSR stuff where it's 2214 02:36:00,200 --> 02:36:02,800 like you're you, you get to come back, but it's after the fight's 2215 02:36:02,800 --> 02:36:04,880 over or something. So yeah, that works. 2216 02:36:04,880 --> 02:36:08,000 Yeah, exactly. So this is this is randomly 2217 02:36:08,040 --> 02:36:09,680 rolled.

I did some like added some extra 2220 02:36:17,040 --> 02:36:21,240 creatures from the beast Jerry. But yeah, the the rough outline 2221 02:36:21,240 --> 02:36:25,400 of the of the dungeon of The Cave was was all random tables 2222 02:36:25,400 --> 02:36:28,840 in the in the Warden saga. Nice. 2223 02:36:29,640 --> 02:36:31,560 Well. It was a very good cave. 2224 02:36:31,560 --> 02:36:34,080 Like, it felt like it had a really nice system and a lot of 2225 02:36:34,080 --> 02:36:39,480 stuff like like the the, the harp boy I wanted to shoot in 2226 02:36:39,480 --> 02:36:41,880 the head of an arrow so bad.
