Episode Transcript
[00:00:43] Speaker A: Waking up dreaming dark so long I cannot find meaning hold my hand Let me stay by your side through this never ending night I can feel it now it holds me all the these demons always roam me in this red light because me he is reaching out consuming.
[00:01:30] Speaker B: Speaking of Yuri, it's your turn.
[00:01:33] Speaker C: Okay. I would like to use my first action to battle medicine.
I am an expert in medicine. Do I want to attempt with how my dice have been rolling we do have another hero point. I'm going to attempt DC20 medicine. Check. Thank goodness. That's a 22.
[00:01:56] Speaker B: Oh yeah.
[00:01:57] Speaker C: That's 25 belt points winks back.
[00:01:59] Speaker B: Hell yeah.
[00:02:03] Speaker C: Yuri just reaches in and like like is getting some of like the blood from the wound and using it to like what they would normally do for their the fiery thing but more to like cauterized wound on their side and just goes bucket. And they're going to use their second action to go to their stag up form as they're just really pissed off at these creatures. So they're underwater. It's even more grotesque because now you can see like the like the bones on their back and in their arms kind of like breaking and cracking and like moving under the skin and their like face elongating their horns growing into these antlers and they're going to use their bite attack which is piercing to attack and that does a D10 I believe. I don't think it matters because we got all this stuff but it is counted as using silver.
[00:03:19] Speaker B: They're not weak to silver but you know, always good.
[00:03:24] Speaker C: So that's 17 plus.
What's a 26?
[00:03:33] Speaker B: A 26 is going to be a critical hit.
[00:03:36] Speaker C: Let's go.
Damn.
So that's 17 plus I assume strength. So 19. That's 38 damage.
[00:03:52] Speaker B: Yeah, it's definitely dead. And I'm going to need that reflex save real quick as this one also goes boom.
[00:04:00] Speaker C: Yeah, I think Yuri. Yuri's jaw goes like just right through it and my reflex is thankfully good. That is going to be 24.
[00:04:10] Speaker B: 24 is a success but any critical success. So you're still going to take some damage right?
[00:04:17] Speaker C: It's like it's like being struck by a porcupine.
[00:04:21] Speaker B: You're going to take half of nine so four damage.
Right.
And was there any more actions? Was that all three? That was all three actions and you are going to sink.
Yes.
So it's like you did not take a movement action so nope. Yep. You'll sink another five feet and that'll bring us to Alistair.
[00:04:48] Speaker D: All right, so I Am going to spin an action to reload my crossbow.
And I am going to target actually the guy that is down. He's like down about five feet and kind of diagonal. Not the guy I previously attacked.
Because I am actually going to telekinetic projectile.
And I'm going to grab some of the shards from the previously exploded skeleton and use them to aim for some piercing damage.
So that is a 23 to hit.
[00:05:38] Speaker B: A 23 will hit the. The one that you've marked with the green.
[00:05:44] Speaker D: The one that's 10ft and is to my north east, 10ft below me. And that is for 12 piercing damage as I sink closer to the ground.
[00:06:02] Speaker B: Yep, yep, yep, yep.
And then that'll bring us to Nile.
[00:06:08] Speaker E: A lot of my spells are just not very good for underwater combat.
So I guess I'll just set up the bomb directly in front of me. I don't know. Can I target the one that's over here from this? Actually? And no matter what I do, I'm gonna blow someone up. So I'm gonna target this one over here.
I get two selections. That's weird. There we go. This one over here? Yes. With needle darts, which has half range, but that does not matter because this thing has 60 range. That is five feet in front of me.
So that is a spell attack Roll against your targets. AC and let's make a little roll and see if I can do a.
[00:06:47] Speaker F: Little silly slappy slap.
[00:06:52] Speaker E: That is a 22 to slap this guy with some needles.
[00:06:55] Speaker B: Yeah. It's gonna hit.
[00:06:57] Speaker E: Yippee. And I'm going to do a little bit of. It's going to be piercing damage. A lot of my spells are piercing damage. Unfortunately, I don't have a default. I'm gonna Google dice roller. It does not have the option to roll the dice damage.
[00:07:10] Speaker G: Hold on.
[00:07:11] Speaker E: 1, 2, 3.
That is seven points of pretty cool needle darts damage.
I am not in the environment, which I am good at fighting at this point in time.
[00:07:24] Speaker B: I don't think any of you are other than Grave Wing are good at fighting underwater.
[00:07:29] Speaker E: Grave Wing is fucking everything up so I don't have to. I am the pillow princess of this fight.
[00:07:35] Speaker G: I just want to point out that Yuri is the one with underwater martyr. It just so happens that this setup worked perfectly for me.
[00:07:46] Speaker E: I'm like, oh, my God. I love my acid spell. That's really good at doing damage. Wait, we're underwater. Oh, no.
But Talos, this can't be happening. My one job is being cute. Okay? And I will use my third action to just Kind of, I guess, move. Stay up a little bit more. So I'll use. I'll make an athletics check. You know, I want to not keep falling into the void. Basically, my athletics is ass. So actually, I might continue to fall into the void.
That's exactly a 10. Does that let me not fall into the.
[00:08:17] Speaker B: It's a DC10.
[00:08:18] Speaker A: Yay.
[00:08:19] Speaker E: I get to swim a little bit. I'm. I'm good at. I'm not good at swimming, but I am swimming, you know.
[00:08:25] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:08:26] Speaker E: Slapped a guy a little bit, but I swam. That is my turn.
[00:08:28] Speaker B: Yeah. And there is the.
The one that is directly in front of you. It is now its turn and is going to come at you with its lance for its first attack.
[00:08:45] Speaker G: Me?
[00:08:46] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:08:47] Speaker E: But I'm just a little guy.
[00:08:50] Speaker B: AC attacks you with an 18 and 18 does hit. All right.
[00:08:57] Speaker E: But I'm just a little guy.
[00:08:59] Speaker B: Little guy who's gonna take nine damage and needs to make Fortitude save.
[00:09:03] Speaker G: I'm just a little guy.
[00:09:04] Speaker E: Aubrey.
[00:09:06] Speaker B: Fortitude save.
[00:09:09] Speaker E: Is this a save against. Hold on. I have a resistance against a specific thing. Let me double check it. Me remembering that I have that it is a disease.
Let me check neutral 9.
[00:09:22] Speaker F: I'm pretty sure it is disease.
[00:09:23] Speaker E: It is disease and poison. Yeah. I get a plus one circumstance bonus to save against disease and poison. So.
[00:09:27] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:09:28] Speaker E: Oh, my God. Is this a disease or poison by chance?
[00:09:32] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:09:33] Speaker A: Yay.
[00:09:35] Speaker B: It's literally deadness.
No.
[00:09:39] Speaker E: I almost got that once. That is an 18 again.
[00:09:43] Speaker B: So you're pretty sure you're fine?
[00:09:47] Speaker E: That's fine.
[00:09:48] Speaker B: If I get tetanus, I get tetanus and is.
[00:09:51] Speaker E: I'll deal with my ears ringing.
[00:09:53] Speaker B: Ed is gonna attack you again for a second time for only a 15.
[00:09:56] Speaker E: I think that is my AC. Let me check really quickly.
Oh, no. It is my ac. I guess you get to me up again, Aubrey.
[00:10:05] Speaker B: Mm.
Take another six damage. And I need the fortitude save again.
[00:10:11] Speaker E: Please offer. There's only so many fortitude saves I got in me.
I saw that flip onto the nat. I kind of think I should use a hero point on that absolute dog roll. I have not used any yet, and we have like, two of them, so I'm gonna.
I've been saving them for when I fail miserably like this.
[00:10:31] Speaker A: Come on.
[00:10:33] Speaker E: We should have a rule where if you roll the same thing twice, it should get a free re roll. Because that's mean.
[00:10:39] Speaker B: No, I. I like it. I. I like. I. I like the. The. The poeticness of you spinning hero point and re rolling the same roll.
[00:10:49] Speaker H: Man.
[00:10:51] Speaker E: Ah, fuck me. Just give me tetanus. I don't care anymore.
[00:10:54] Speaker B: You're pretty.
[00:10:54] Speaker C: Join Yuri.
[00:10:55] Speaker B: You're pretty sure you're fine? For the moment. Nice.
And then for its last action, it's going to raise its shield.
[00:11:02] Speaker E: Damn it. I will say. I say this with a light heartedness in my soul, like, give me tetanus. I'll match Niall. I'll go get a rusty screw outside and we'll be besties with tetanus.
[00:11:10] Speaker B: Only tetanus, you know. Great news. Wonderful news. The one right next to you is going now.
[00:11:17] Speaker E: Is it attacking me again?
[00:11:19] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:11:20] Speaker E: Okay.
[00:11:22] Speaker G: Quadruple tetanus, here we come.
[00:11:25] Speaker B: Oof. That's a 29.
[00:11:28] Speaker E: I am going to die. That is a crit.
[00:11:33] Speaker B: And that is going to be 18 damage.
[00:11:35] Speaker E: I am actively in a very dangerous range currently.
Wait. If you're knocked unconscious and then brought back up from consciousness again, you still have.
[00:11:47] Speaker B: You'll still have the underwater.
[00:11:49] Speaker H: Oh, thank God.
[00:11:50] Speaker E: I was about to say like that.
[00:11:52] Speaker B: It doesn't go away because you go unconscious.
[00:11:54] Speaker E: Okay, perfect.
[00:11:54] Speaker F: I thought you were gonna say you'll still have tetanus.
[00:12:04] Speaker B: And you're. And then its second attack is a 15.
[00:12:09] Speaker E: I swear to God, you could just knock me unconscious right now. That'd be really fucked up.
[00:12:14] Speaker B: Six damage.
[00:12:15] Speaker E: That is enough to knock me unconscious, baby girl.
[00:12:20] Speaker B: Okay, you all watch this. Kind of. Niall just starts floating.
[00:12:25] Speaker E: I get stabbed a bit too hard.
[00:12:30] Speaker B: Niall. In your head, you hear? Oh, no. What's happening? This is not good.
[00:12:36] Speaker E: I'm dying a little bit here. You know, it's not good, but.
[00:12:40] Speaker B: And you will move in the Initiative to right in front of the Skeletal Champion. And that'll bring us to Louis.
[00:12:47] Speaker H: Right? I have a new. I have a new plan. Throwing out the old plan no longer valid. New plan. Go to nihil.
I don't know if I'm in range of Nihil, given we're like next to each other, but I'm slightly below them. But it's only five feet.
[00:13:08] Speaker B: Yeah, technically they're within five feet of you. So, you know, you could theoretically reach out to them.
[00:13:14] Speaker H: I'm gonna grab him by the leg and pull us closer together. And realize this is not very helpful underwater, but attempt to do battle medicine, the traditional methods using the healer's kit are going all out the window.
[00:13:32] Speaker B: So I don't.
[00:13:32] Speaker H: I don't know. I don't know what she does. She's gonna make it up.
She's gonna use her little flashcards, which are now soaking wet and useless. Do you remember how we got hero points. I don't need. I don't need to take that. I don't need to deal with that.
Try better.
[00:13:49] Speaker C: Good.
[00:13:49] Speaker H: You can stay.
23.
[00:13:55] Speaker B: A 23. That is a. That is a success for battle medicine. Are you doing it just the basic Dec.15?
I mean, are you, are you just trained in it or are you an expert?
[00:14:08] Speaker H: I'm probably just trained. I don't think I'm an expert in anything. I'm an expert in society.
[00:14:13] Speaker B: Okay, if you're just trained, you just do the 15. Dc so yeah, that is.
[00:14:17] Speaker H: You get 8hp Nile.
[00:14:20] Speaker B: The land of the living Nile.
[00:14:22] Speaker E: Hey, how much, how much crispy HP did I get back again?
[00:14:25] Speaker H: 8.
[00:14:26] Speaker B: 8. I applied it to your sheet.
[00:14:28] Speaker E: Thank you. And I am wounded one currently. That is pogaritious.
[00:14:32] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:14:33] Speaker E: Okay.
[00:14:36] Speaker H: That is the best I can do. And then I'm gonna, I guess swim under Nile and I'm gonna swim under you all and I guess stab the other one. That's like you two are in a line and there's one directly next to both of you. So I'm gonna swim underneath you and I don't know, stab it in the butt because I'm also, I assume, under it.
Yeah, that's a decent number.
Do I, I'm sorry, do I have to make a swim check?
[00:15:13] Speaker B: Yes.
DC10 athletics.
[00:15:18] Speaker H: I rolled a 14 to attack. That's not the total, but just hold that number.
[00:15:23] Speaker B: Holding.
[00:15:25] Speaker H: I did it actually get two attack, I don't think, because I only rolled an eight, so never mind.
I don't have anything to add to that eight. It's just, it's just flat eight.
[00:15:38] Speaker B: Eight. Yeah.
Do you want to try one more time to move?
[00:15:45] Speaker H: Is there a point?
Because that would be my third action to move again.
[00:15:53] Speaker B: Unless you wanted to do something else with your third action.
[00:15:55] Speaker H: I wanted to stab someone with my third action, but if I can't, there's an.
I can't throw it underwater because, hold on, it's slashing damage and it automatically misses that the target is underwater ranged. Slashing damage.
[00:16:11] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:16:12] Speaker H: So I can't.
[00:16:14] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:16:18] Speaker H: I'm just gonna wave as I sink.
[00:16:20] Speaker B: Yeah, you're just kind of like paddling a little bit efficiently. You all gotta take swimming lessons after this.
[00:16:27] Speaker H: Uh huh. Oh, hey, you know what I could do for an action? I got 30ft on this sucker.
I'm just gonna, as I sink, do little finger guns at Grave Wing and be like, you got this and give you guidance.
[00:16:41] Speaker F: Ruin their undead lives.
[00:16:44] Speaker B: Yeah, speaking of Grave Wing, it's not your turn.
[00:16:46] Speaker G: I have been ruining their undead lives, but I'll gladly accept this. And the one that fucked up Niall is next, since it's within range.
Flurry of blows again. On it.
And unless I fuck this up.
Oh.
[00:17:08] Speaker B: Oh.
[00:17:08] Speaker G: My bag saved my dice from being thrown across the room. But, yeah, unless I. This up, this is about to be very good because 2d10 plus 3 per hit is wild. Now that we can kind of guesstimate what these things HP is, they really are trapped with me.
You know, the Kessie dice, which is what I'm calling my. My cute little, like, eyeball dice right now. Really likes the number 18, so 28 to hit it.
[00:17:44] Speaker B: Yeah, that's a. It's a critical hit.
[00:17:47] Speaker G: Wowies.
It was.
[00:17:51] Speaker B: Yes, it's. It's a critical hit.
[00:17:54] Speaker G: Wow.
Wow. I really up that first one, huh? I. It was. I. That first one was kind of overkill, huh? Oh, one second.
That's a D8.
[00:18:06] Speaker B: They're not incredibly powerful. There's just a lot of them.
[00:18:08] Speaker G: It's just a lot of them. Yeah.
I can't wait for the day that there's too many of them, you know, because that would be kind of funny. This damage is kind of. Kind of meh. I think that's 11.
[00:18:25] Speaker B: 11.
[00:18:27] Speaker G: Yeah, 11. 11. Bludgeoning.
[00:18:30] Speaker B: It is still standing currently, but barely.
[00:18:34] Speaker G: Then I'll hit it one more time because. Because it's Flurry of blows, but I wanted to see if I could apply it to something else. But I don't think. I don't think so. I think I'll just hit it both 18 and 18.
[00:18:49] Speaker B: And 18 just barely hits.
[00:18:51] Speaker G: Yeah, I thought so. I rolled low this time.
Don't lowball me. Thank you. Damage 13.
[00:18:59] Speaker B: 13. That is exactly enough to take this one out.
[00:19:06] Speaker G: So Grave wing just grabs it again with. With her tail, pulls it really close, and then just. Just kind of. Because they're so flimsy, actually, she can just kind of just rip its head off, just spin it, you know, and it's. It's. It's underwater. It's dead. It's a corpse. It's just, like, easy, and it's gone. So she can use. I still have two actions because Flurry of blows is one, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I can just. I can. I can use one action to, like, swim over, right? To just kind of like.
[00:19:40] Speaker B: Yes. Yeah. If you want to give me that athletic check.
[00:19:45] Speaker G: Yeah. I'm just trying to think because I. I think I have.
I have 35 movement.
So do we Round up or do we round down?
[00:19:54] Speaker B: It's 35.
[00:19:57] Speaker G: Halved.
[00:19:58] Speaker B: It would be halved.
I would say round down.
[00:20:01] Speaker G: Round down. So that's 15.
Or are we going into like.
Like 15? Yeah, I was gonna say it's. It's round down to the nearest five.
So, yeah, I have 15, so I should be able to. Sorry, one second. I just wanna.
Well, you're down. I can actually just, like, go, like, here. Yeah, I guess here is where I'd be. Okay, cool. Which is quite literally, I guess, around and behind the next one, which is fun.
Yeah. I pass. And this one now, fun thing I didn't realize or I knew, but I forgot that it was finesse, is I have a new. Another way to attack that actually gets all the extra monk bonus because of damage die.
So to do a third attack and not risk a bigger penalty, I'm gonna switch up my weapon and use my fangs to attack the third guy. Because it's finesse.
[00:21:16] Speaker B: Hell, yeah.
[00:21:19] Speaker A: It's.
[00:21:20] Speaker G: It's 2D. Four plus three, but it's still 2D, right. So, yeah, it's. It's kind of. We're kind of like. It's kind of baller.
[00:21:26] Speaker B: Not gonna lie.
[00:21:28] Speaker G: I'm gonna use a hero point on this one because I think. I think I'll be just under.
And I have, like, two hero points or three by now.
[00:21:36] Speaker B: Yep.
[00:21:38] Speaker G: 18.
Exactly.
[00:21:40] Speaker B: 18. 18 hits.
[00:21:42] Speaker G: I love being good at this one thing.
10. 10 damage.
[00:21:48] Speaker B: 10. 10 damage.
[00:21:51] Speaker G: And I just bite into this one and just break its, like, collar bow. And it just kind of suck. I basically take out that whole. That whole shoulder, I think, because of.
[00:22:02] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:22:03] Speaker G: How flimsy these bodies are. I do not swallow. I spit it out. Okay. I just. I feel like I gotta say that out loud because everybody else is getting tetanus and you might give me something else.
[00:22:13] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. It's always good to know. Laith, it is now your turn.
[00:22:19] Speaker F: I am going to swim past horrifying Yuri.
Not thinking about that. In order to flank this other skellington.
And it's to reach, because I am still significantly higher up than it. I will do my whip and take that minus two. And I have to make an athletics to swim.
[00:22:43] Speaker B: Yes. It's a DC10.
[00:22:47] Speaker F: It's eight plus seven, so that's fine.
12 turn 21 to hit 21.
[00:22:58] Speaker B: 21 will hit 11 damage.
11.
All right.
[00:23:07] Speaker F: And I will go ahead and try and hit it again.
[00:23:10] Speaker B: Yeah, go for it.
[00:23:13] Speaker F: Ugh. That one is only a.
[00:23:18] Speaker B: 13 to hit a 13. 13 will not hit.
[00:23:23] Speaker F: Yeah. She has not quite calibrated the whip to the water yet. So just kind of whiffs. But that's my turn.
[00:23:31] Speaker B: Okay. And that'll bring us to some of these skeletons. This one has noticed you length, so is going to spend an action to move behind you. Kind of trying to put you in a bit of a flank. Even though you know you're already all considered off guard. Can't get more off guard and is going to attack you with its boarding pike. Does a 21 hit you?
[00:23:58] Speaker F: So faris told me everyone got nakey and so I don't have armor.
[00:24:03] Speaker B: Probably it is up to you. O. I let the players choose if they were going down here in armor or not.
[00:24:11] Speaker F: Um, I mean, leaf isn't gonna pass up an opportunity to be naked. So that would hit. Except I will nimble dodge for the first time. Finally I get to use it so it does not hit.
[00:24:24] Speaker H: Do a barrel roll.
[00:24:26] Speaker F: That's what I do. A sweet backflip, but it's underwater so it's less impressive.
[00:24:35] Speaker B: All right.
And then it's gonna do it one more time for a nat 20 for 25.
[00:24:45] Speaker F: That one will hit.
[00:24:49] Speaker B: All right.
This one is called pierced lung. You are fatigued.
27 piercing damage. And I'm going to need a fortitude save as well.
[00:25:01] Speaker F: Jiminy kerbins. Okay. I have 7 GP left.
Okay. With fatigued, that is a fortitude.
[00:25:14] Speaker B: You said fortitude? Yes.
[00:25:17] Speaker F: Dirty 20.
[00:25:19] Speaker B: You're pretty sure you're fine?
[00:25:21] Speaker C: Oof.
[00:25:22] Speaker F: Okay.
[00:25:24] Speaker B: And that's this one. And now the one that you is engaged with with Yuri is. Is going to attack you with a longsword.
And that is going to be a 19 to hit.
[00:25:42] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:25:43] Speaker B: All right. And that is six damage. Cool.
[00:25:47] Speaker C: Great.
[00:25:48] Speaker B: Perfect.
[00:25:48] Speaker C: Love it.
[00:25:51] Speaker B: And this one wants to stay at the, you know, the elevation it's at. So it's going to make that athletics check real quick to tread water.
So that's a success.
And then for his last action, it's going to raise its shield.
All right. And we've got one last one. This one is directly in front of Alistair. So we're gonna do one action to tread water.
And that succeeds. One action with the boarding pike, and that is a 25 to hit Alistair.
[00:26:30] Speaker D: That will definitely hit.
[00:26:33] Speaker B: All right.
[00:26:36] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:26:36] Speaker B: Give me the photo sheet. Save one more time port.
[00:26:42] Speaker D: That's a 22.
[00:26:44] Speaker B: Yeah.
Pretty sure you're still okay. That's nine damage. And then it is going to spend his last action to raise its shield.
And that'll bring us back to Yuri.
[00:26:57] Speaker C: Incredible.
So the One that.
The one that attacked me is within range, right?
[00:27:08] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:27:09] Speaker C: Okay. Yuri is going to spit out the. The one that exploded and is going to try to chomp on this one right in front of Leith.
Oooh, that's a 27.
[00:27:24] Speaker B: A 27 will hit, but not crit.
[00:27:29] Speaker C: Oh, really?
That is going to be.
Let's do 15 piercing damage.
[00:27:41] Speaker B: 15 piercing damage?
Yep. And you will take this one out.
[00:27:49] Speaker C: Yeah. Like I think Le was blocking the view of Yuri with this zombie. Then Yuri just rips the torso off and spits it out. And so no longer can block Yuri's visage from view. But they're not going to worry about that for too much because then I want to go attack this other one over here, which means I don't need.
[00:28:16] Speaker B: To move athletic check.
Unless you have a swim speed, which I don't think you do.
[00:28:24] Speaker C: That is going to be an 11th line.
[00:28:29] Speaker B: 11 passes. Just barely.
[00:28:31] Speaker C: I. I used the Yuri dice again. I don't know why I did that. Because I rolled a two again.
All right, cool.
I would like to move right here then.
So I'm going to use my second attack. I don't think these are finesse.
Just check.
Oh, sorry. Agile is the correct term for it. Pardon me. You do. So it's only a minus four.
Let's go. Big money. Big money. That is going to be a dirty 20.
[00:29:09] Speaker B: A dirty 20 to hit. Wheel hit.
[00:29:14] Speaker C: Hell yeah.
That is going to be on the lower end. That's just going to be an 11 piercing as the jaws bite into this one again.
[00:29:29] Speaker B: This one is still standing for the time being.
And that'll bring us to Alistair.
[00:29:37] Speaker D: I mean, is it standing or swimming?
[00:29:40] Speaker B: Yeah, standing. Swimming. It is upright and not put back in the grave.
[00:29:49] Speaker D: Okay, so I will look at it and take a second to devise a Strategy.
It's a 9, which would give me a. Yeah, that will hit. So I will go ahead and use that stratagem and I will strike with my crossbow so I know that's a hit for 14 piercing damage.
[00:30:23] Speaker B: 14 piercing damage. The one right in front of you?
[00:30:26] Speaker D: Yep.
[00:30:27] Speaker B: All right. That'll take that one out. Thus leaving us with only two of the drowned left.
[00:30:34] Speaker D: Oh, man. That means I can't use.
I can't make it off guard because it's dead. And I will continue my slow sinking.
[00:30:48] Speaker B: Nice. And that will bring us to one of the remaining ones. So graveling. You just stabbed it. So it's going to turn around and attack you with its boarding pike. First action to continue to tread water.
That one Is just barely going to succeed and is going to stab.
No for 14. That's not gonna hit. And then it's gonna try once more because it's. And there's also another. No.
[00:31:20] Speaker G: Just too nimble in the water.
[00:31:23] Speaker B: Yep, yep, yep, yep.
This spearfishing is not working out for it. And Nile.
[00:31:30] Speaker E: Well, do I count as flanking the one that graveling is flanking?
[00:31:33] Speaker B: Kind of technically, yes.
[00:31:37] Speaker E: Okay.
This is gonna feel dumb to ask one of the systems. You don't get anything unless you're a rogue. If I use like.
If I cast spell that shoots needles at you, do like. Is it considered flat footed against that? From this distance?
[00:31:52] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:31:54] Speaker E: Perfect. I'm gonna use spell that shoots needles at my opponent. I'm gonna cast needle darts also underwater.
[00:32:00] Speaker C: So it's off guard anyways, right?
[00:32:01] Speaker B: Yeah, pretty much.
[00:32:03] Speaker E: Maybe it's doubly off guard, you know.
[00:32:05] Speaker B: No, it doesn't work that way.
[00:32:07] Speaker E: Okay. Because it looks like most of the enemies are kind of dealt with and most of them kind of wrapping up. So I shouldn't bust another second level spell slot. I'm giving myself a little bit of temporary health if there's a second. Why do I hear boss music? I'm slapping false vitality. But right now I'm gonna just do a little bit of damage, you know, see if I can take this bad guy out.
[00:32:24] Speaker G: All right.
[00:32:25] Speaker E: Hello, needle dirts. I'm literally begging you to actually do what you need to do for once in your life. Okay. Fuck me. I guess that actually. I hope that's not a crit fail is the thing because that was like a. That was a two.
I do have one more hero point and I honestly would like to not fail every roll tonight. So I'm gonna use my last hero point on actually committing the murder button if that is okay with you.
[00:32:50] Speaker B: Dm, Please, please, yes, spend the hero points. Please use the resources.
[00:32:55] Speaker E: I'm gonna roll another fucking two.
Well, it's. It's a 16 now. It didn't get much better, but it's a 16 now.
[00:33:03] Speaker B: Unfortunately, a 16 is not going to be enough.
[00:33:06] Speaker E: It's not a crit fail though, right?
[00:33:08] Speaker B: Not a crit fail.
[00:33:09] Speaker E: At that point I was fishing for not a crit fail.
That's okay, I guess. Third action. I don't really. I guess use the third action to stay in place. I can make my spicy athletics check again if I can. Yeah, I'm not very athletic and that's okay.
I'm cute and people love me. This is talking about me, by the way. Nile's all rat.
I cannot even stay afloat.
[00:33:39] Speaker B: You sink down five more feet, I swear to God.
[00:33:42] Speaker E: We started playing and the dice were like, you know what? I remember what I have to do. Fuck this bitch.
An attempt was made. Graveling. Please help me. Thank you. Thank you. Graveling.
[00:33:55] Speaker B: And that'll bring us to Lou.
There's one skeleton left.
[00:34:02] Speaker H: I'm gonna attempt to swim to one.
[00:34:05] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:34:06] Speaker H: I might just spend my whole turn waving at people.
Ooh, I did it.
[00:34:14] Speaker E: Yay.
[00:34:15] Speaker H: I swam.
I got a 15, which means I'm gonna miss when I attack, so I'm gonna go scoot.
I'm gonna be strictly honest. Yuri scares me. So I'm gonna go over here and get as close as I gotta get to stab it.
Maybe I'm gonna exploit vulnerability just in case now. Well, you know what? Last time I thought I wasn't going to make it and I actually did pretty good. Let me double check.
Did you say it was a 15 DC last time for yes, that's exactly what I got.
Yeah. Just kind of spear it with the coral I took off the other one and I'm gonna try to stat it.
You gotta stop doing this, man.
What? What are we looking at hero point wise? Do we have more than one?
From the beginning? We have two, so I've only used one. There you go. Stop it.
[00:35:26] Speaker C: We'll be getting our second one just now actually.
[00:35:29] Speaker H: Thank heavens.
[00:35:30] Speaker C: I'm using it just because I marked it accidentally.
[00:35:36] Speaker B: 1616.
Unfortunately, that is not going to be enough.
[00:35:46] Speaker H: Have a good one. Bye.
[00:35:49] Speaker B: I was like, you're so close. It's a 17. Is there C currently view of anything gives you plus one.
[00:35:56] Speaker H: This isn't that one that Alistair marked earlier, right?
[00:36:01] Speaker B: No.
[00:36:01] Speaker H: Yeah, I didn't think so then.
No. Exploiting vulnerability only helps with damage and implement empowerment. Also only a damage thing. So bye.
[00:36:18] Speaker B: Understandable.
And grave wing is now your turn.
[00:36:26] Speaker G: Don't worry, gal, I got this.
[00:36:30] Speaker B: Understandable.
[00:36:31] Speaker E: Grave wouldn't kill this guy.
[00:36:33] Speaker G: Yeah, it's. Don't worry, don't worry. We always had a plan C and that's what's happening right now.
[00:36:39] Speaker H: It's just hard to swim and stab things when you don't know how to swim and also don't know how to stab things.
[00:36:44] Speaker E: Plan C is come get moth.
[00:36:46] Speaker G: Mom.
[00:36:47] Speaker H: Moth.
[00:36:48] Speaker B: Mom, help me.
[00:36:48] Speaker H: I'm scared.
[00:36:50] Speaker G: So this guy, this one.
What is it looking? Looking at the one that I was fighting before?
[00:37:01] Speaker B: Yes, it's the one that is right in front of Nile.
[00:37:06] Speaker G: It's currently being flanked by like three people but like yeah, this. This is. This is the one I bit him before successfully.
Like, if I have to look at it.
[00:37:20] Speaker B: Yes, yes. It does not look good. Probably one good. What? One good attack will take him down.
[00:37:26] Speaker G: I will do the one good attack so that way I can save flurry of blows for. For later.
One good attack says 22.
[00:37:45] Speaker B: A 22. 22 will hit.
[00:37:50] Speaker G: 11.
[00:37:51] Speaker B: 11. That is going to take this one out. So there's just the one that's by Yuri that's left.
[00:37:59] Speaker G: Okay. I should be able to use an action to swim all the way there. Yeah, I think I have exactly enough to get. To get all the way over there. Yuri doesn't bother me.
[00:38:11] Speaker B: I mean, just for. For shits and giggles, give me that athletics check one more time.
[00:38:16] Speaker G: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
When I say Yuri doesn't bother me, I mean, like, no, you're. It's a little alarming, but at the same time, it's like I can ask you questions about it later. Like, I've seen it already, you know?
Yeah. I pass.
So I got my last action.
For narrative purposes, I have taken the previous corpse. Okay. So I'm kind of slithering, swimming over with a whole corpse in the coil of, like, the end part of my tail. And I'm gonna flurry of blows this one.
However, to save myself on the penalty, I'm going to specifically use my bite attack.
19.
[00:39:08] Speaker B: A 19. A 19 will hit.
[00:39:12] Speaker G: I have one more hero point, so I'll just use it for that much, much better. Another 19.
[00:39:22] Speaker B: And do I roll a damage?
[00:39:26] Speaker G: Okay.
D4S.
[00:39:29] Speaker F: D4S.
[00:39:30] Speaker E: D4s.
[00:39:32] Speaker F: I'd like to state for the record that Aubrey has already marked it as dead on the map.
[00:39:38] Speaker G: It's going to take so much damage.
[00:39:43] Speaker C: I already hit it once, so. And late hit it, so.
[00:39:49] Speaker G: Oh, my God.
Just my strength modifier.
Okay, well, now. Okay, now that I know that I'm just gonna hit. I'm just gonna roll it on my phone, bro.
16.
[00:40:06] Speaker B: It's 14.
[00:40:09] Speaker G: Yeah, it really was. I just rolled like, Max, Max, Max. Oh, my God.
Digital.
[00:40:16] Speaker B: Yeah. And as. As you do this, you all feel a disturbance, the water around you, and you sort of look up and you watch as this beautiful creature comes into view, this Seadrake Kessie.
You can see even sort of in the muted, like, light underwater. You can see the blue green scales as she sort of comes out of the.
Now that you're closer, it looks more like a ruined tower than an actual mountain, but you can kind of see her as she sort of climbs out of this and the noises are a little muffled, but it sounds a little bit more like you would hear whale sounds or like dolphin sounds, orca sounds, something like that underwater that come from her as she sort of starts to approach all of you and sort of sniff you out.
If anybody wants to interact. I need a nature check for handle animal.
[00:41:22] Speaker G: Oh, I swear I have nature. I swear, I swear, I swear I'm.
[00:41:26] Speaker E: Not good at touching animals. I'm gonna just. If she wants to sniff, she can sniff. But I'm just saying, if one of us is gonna become dinner, it's not gonna be me.
[00:41:33] Speaker D: Does anyone else feel like food?
[00:41:36] Speaker B: Nope.
[00:41:38] Speaker G: No. Our poor swimming rat. You actually are food. Oh, I'm Alice to run.
[00:41:45] Speaker E: All right, Alistair, if you'll become dinner.
[00:41:49] Speaker H: Don'T get eaten by Yuri, but get behind Yuri.
[00:41:52] Speaker C: I'm fine. I heal. So I'm no longer in bloodlust range.
[00:41:57] Speaker H: Okay, I'm gonna attempt to roll nature and graveling.
[00:42:04] Speaker B: Did you have nature?
[00:42:06] Speaker G: Yeah.
[00:42:06] Speaker B: If you would like to roll nature for an animal. A handle animal check either. Anybody who has nature can.
[00:42:12] Speaker H: Aubrey, how bad is it if I fail this role?
[00:42:16] Speaker F: She's gonna be so offended.
[00:42:18] Speaker B: Currently Rickets, he's at neutral. So you know, it's either you're gonna push her up and if you succeed, you'll push her up into, you know, getting her closer to helpful range. If it's bad, you might go into unfriendly range.
[00:42:31] Speaker H: And what is the DC for this?
[00:42:35] Speaker B: DC is 20.
[00:42:39] Speaker F: As a water cryptid. A lake cryptid. Wouldn't you say that Cassie lives in the darkness?
[00:42:49] Speaker C: What are you getting at here?
[00:42:54] Speaker H: A creature of the night.
[00:42:55] Speaker F: Uh huh. Voices of the night.
[00:42:57] Speaker E: Oh, but you did very much specify that it's so dark. Not even dark vision works down here.
[00:43:03] Speaker G: It's always night.
[00:43:06] Speaker E: So.
[00:43:09] Speaker B: You know what? I will give you this one. This one time for once.
[00:43:14] Speaker G: Okay, now it's my turn to bargain. Even though I've already technically rolled. I wonder. No, shut up.
They're not gonna get this. They're not gonna get that reference yet. Oh my God. For us.
Okay, all right, all right. Aubrey, you gotta hear me out or else I'm gonna call you racist.
[00:43:36] Speaker C: No, stop.
[00:43:38] Speaker G: I am a snake. A big snake. We are both cold blooded. A technically two points. My third point is that I am an elemental. I'm a sylph, a strong element. But I feel like we can just vibe. And my fourth is, if needed to, I'll start literally spitting lightning. Because I can do that.
[00:44:02] Speaker C: Why would I know.
[00:44:04] Speaker F: More racist for her to agree with you.
[00:44:07] Speaker G: I naturally do that.
[00:44:09] Speaker B: I.
[00:44:10] Speaker G: Look, listen, don't. Let me, let me.
[00:44:13] Speaker C: You're gonna meet this creature underwater and you're gonna like. Hey, watch this. Spits lightning. That's so chill.
[00:44:21] Speaker G: Listen, what if. What if what? We don't know.
[00:44:24] Speaker B: What?
[00:44:24] Speaker E: Kiss?
[00:44:25] Speaker C: Yeah. What if something threatening to a creature.
[00:44:28] Speaker G: You don't know, what if she thinks that's hot? What do you mean?
[00:44:32] Speaker B: Like.
[00:44:32] Speaker C: Okay, no, no, I give you salt.
[00:44:36] Speaker D: Water or fresh water?
[00:44:38] Speaker C: Fresh water.
[00:44:39] Speaker G: It's freshwater lake. Yeah.
[00:44:41] Speaker E: Aubrey, I'm gonna also ask on the list of really dumb questions. Nessie, Cassie's not an aberration of any kind, right?
[00:44:47] Speaker B: No, there's just a. Just a Drake.
A very natural creature.
[00:44:52] Speaker H: I'm gonna cast guidance on myself.
[00:44:57] Speaker B: Sure. Gravely, take a plus one. I. I don't know.
[00:45:03] Speaker E: I need to get it.
[00:45:03] Speaker G: I already rolled 22, but I just wanted to see if I could get anything out of that 23.
[00:45:08] Speaker H: Oh my God. Okay, I have to get a 12.
I have. I have rolled above 12 tonight. I do not have a hero point.
[00:45:16] Speaker B: I believe in you.
[00:45:17] Speaker G: I believe in you.
Trust in the power of the bells.
[00:45:23] Speaker B: Believes in you.
[00:45:24] Speaker H: Nim does believe in me.
[00:45:26] Speaker G: And. And if you fail, you can blame them.
[00:45:30] Speaker H: It was a six.
[00:45:33] Speaker C: Damn it, Nim.
[00:45:34] Speaker G: Do you have high intelligence? You do.
[00:45:37] Speaker E: No, No.
[00:45:38] Speaker H: I don't know.
[00:45:39] Speaker G: Is it because you're French? Well, why? Why not?
[00:45:41] Speaker B: Nature is actually wisdom.
[00:45:43] Speaker H: But actually I do have high intelligence. But damn, it's my second highest stat.
[00:45:49] Speaker G: I didn't know nature was. Was wisdom.
[00:45:52] Speaker H: Yeah.
[00:45:54] Speaker G: That would explain a lot actually.
[00:45:57] Speaker H: Looks like I'm not gonna be friends with Cassie.
[00:46:00] Speaker G: It's okay.
[00:46:01] Speaker B: As long as one of us start to your friendship. And laith, you're think of the night. What allows you to.
[00:46:10] Speaker F: I can just straight up hear and understand the words of creatures I share the darkness with. I can ask questions and receive answers from using deployment polymacy. And again, a plus one circumstance bonus to make an impression.
[00:46:23] Speaker B: So you're the only one who actually hears this. But your Cassidy sort of like looks at you and graveling and you just hear the word friend. Help.
[00:46:35] Speaker F: Friend.
Here to help. And Leith, I think sort of holds a hand to her deeply bleeding chest wound. Her gaping chest wound and says could also use help.
[00:46:51] Speaker B: Help friend.
And Cassie is going to with as gently as a giant sea drake can grab like one of the belts that's on your thing and sort of like use it to like with her like teeth and like try to pull you into this temple.
[00:47:14] Speaker F: She's here to help.
[00:47:18] Speaker G: You speak our language.
[00:47:22] Speaker F: I wasn't sure I'd be able to.
[00:47:25] Speaker G: Above table.
[00:47:26] Speaker F: Well, that's suspicious.
[00:47:29] Speaker E: Well, we're not unpacking that. Let's go.
[00:47:32] Speaker B: We're gonna pack that later.
[00:47:33] Speaker G: Yeah, I'll follow.
[00:47:36] Speaker B: Swim. As you do, you enter this temple. Part of this temple. Sort of like the bottom of it is sort of the floor has fallen in and it looks like it goes deeper and you just. It's not big enough for Kessie to get through. It's like maybe like one and a half people wide and sort of will drag you over to this and say help friend there.
[00:48:09] Speaker F: Like gesturing down the hole.
Thank you. And le sort of holding her gaping chest. Run still will sink down.
[00:48:22] Speaker G: Before you sink down. We should heal. Yeah, it's just like. It's like we, we. We see where to go. Let's just take. Let's just take a few minutes. I'll just.
[00:48:32] Speaker C: Aubrey, would I be able to go through this tunnel in transformed mode?
[00:48:40] Speaker B: Do you become a large creature mechanically?
[00:48:43] Speaker C: No, but I do have big ass antlers.
Break them off, go back.
[00:48:53] Speaker B: Yes. I would say as long as your antlers don't like turn you into a large creature, it's not going to be the most comfortable. But you can get through this tunnel cool mechanically.
[00:49:02] Speaker C: I'm going to stay this for the rest of the hour, I guess until needs turn otherwise and we have to interact with people. Maybe naked.
[00:49:12] Speaker B: Yes, you will. You can spend some time to heal up. We can figure that out off screen how much you will heal up and how long you want to do and eventually grave wing and Lath, you, you, Cassie will both let you get close enough to like touch anybody else. Currently he's a little bit wary of but is not actively hostile towards.
[00:49:38] Speaker G: Okay, now. Now I have a question based on maybe the size or like even I guess the behavior could. I guess how old Cassie is.
[00:50:01] Speaker B: You think that she is probably an adult not reached like ancient status, but you know, it is old enough for a drake to be considered an adult mechanically. She does have negative intelligence. So, you know, is a smart creature, but it's not. It is a drake rather than a dragon.
[00:50:27] Speaker G: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That makes sense.
[00:50:30] Speaker B: Limits his intelligence, but still, you know, like understands things and.
[00:50:37] Speaker G: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Okay, that's. That's good to know.
[00:50:41] Speaker C: I realize I should actually probably get out of transformation. I think about it because I'm the one that do healing better.
I have ward medics. I can heal two people at a time.
[00:50:59] Speaker B: Yeah, no, you will figure out like how much you heal and everything off, off screen. And you all sort of start swimming through this tunnel. It's actually a lot longer than any of you actually expect it to be.
And it comes to a point where after probably about five or six minutes of swimming, you come to the surface of something.
Whoever is first in this, probably either Yuri or graveling, you'll poke your head up into what is an underwater cavern.
And you can see all of these sort of like bioluminescent things on the ceiling, kind of giving this strange light over this sort of large area. You can hear movement somewhere further in the area. But very close on the shore, there's a crumpled form of what looks to be a person.
And that's where we're going to end it. As you sort of surface up into this cavern, this is possibly the place that was mentioned.
There's people here and you don't know if they're friend or foe.
So do the outro.
[00:52:42] Speaker E: Wow, I hate how long it takes Zoom to load. Thank you everyone for listening to the wonderful episode set of Goblets and Gays. If you like what you do here, feel free to follow us on Blue Skill Guy on Instagram on the extinct bird app. I don't think we use that anymore. We might. Eh, question mark.
[00:52:58] Speaker B: We exist.
[00:52:59] Speaker E: We exist. For now.
Support us on Patreon. Eventually they'll put a blooper reel. It's just me saying dumb.
Maybe I could make another essay or something. Which monsters are the best, tastiest and least tastiest in this setting? And you guys get to listen to me talk about a psychoanalysis on how Kessie would be best roasted. But anyways, thank you all for listening. Thank you all for coming. And remember, cannibalism is the friendship we made along the way.
[00:53:25] Speaker H: And the fighting.
[00:53:26] Speaker A: Stay by your side through this never ending night I can feel it now it haunts me all these demons always roam me in this red light it calls me he is reaching out consuming.
[00:55:05] Speaker G: Sa.
