WEBVTT

00:00:01.499 --> 00:00:03.879
Hey, everyone. This is David. Real, real quick

00:00:03.879 --> 00:00:05.740
here. I don't want to take away from the action

00:00:05.740 --> 00:00:08.339
because there is going to be so much action.

00:00:08.560 --> 00:00:10.419
But I got to talk to you guys. I want to give

00:00:10.419 --> 00:00:12.960
you a brief debrief, if you will, because last

00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:15.220
time, as you know, and if you don't know, get

00:00:15.220 --> 00:00:17.320
out of here. Go back. Listen to the show up to

00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:20.179
this point. But if you know, Crispin Dubois died.

00:00:20.899 --> 00:00:23.519
And we discovered afterwards, thanks to Andrew,

00:00:23.660 --> 00:00:26.600
who we forged on Discord, that there was a bit

00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:31.660
of a wedgie there. I did not realize that my

00:00:31.660 --> 00:00:34.299
AoE attacks I'd used that brought Crispin down

00:00:34.299 --> 00:00:37.219
two death throws each time, they were within

00:00:37.219 --> 00:00:38.840
five feet, but they would not be considered an

00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:41.219
attack, rules as written, and therefore that

00:00:41.219 --> 00:00:45.700
death, rules as written, would not stick. But

00:00:45.700 --> 00:00:47.719
here's the thing about that. I've done a lot

00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:50.259
of thinking about wedgies, about rules, about

00:00:50.259 --> 00:00:53.119
the justifications you make when you have these

00:00:53.119 --> 00:00:55.159
sort of mistakes in the show, and I don't like

00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:58.079
to think of them as mistakes at all. In Dungeons

00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:01.640
& Dragons, we have a lot of homebrew rules. The

00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:03.520
golden rule of the game is the Dungeon Master

00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:05.920
can make weird things up and they can happen.

00:01:06.099 --> 00:01:08.140
Now, I'm not saying that I'm sticking with these

00:01:08.140 --> 00:01:11.939
broken, not rules as written rules. What I'm

00:01:11.939 --> 00:01:14.239
saying is, if I didn't understand a rule, and

00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:16.280
going forward, if I don't understand a rule in

00:01:16.280 --> 00:01:18.900
a combat, I can't walk it back. That is the rule,

00:01:18.939 --> 00:01:20.700
because it's the rule I interpreted, the rule

00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:23.420
I understood when I made the ruling, if that

00:01:23.420 --> 00:01:27.010
makes sense to you. And so... Crispin DuBois'

00:01:27.150 --> 00:01:30.609
death stands. The two death fails Arhalon has

00:01:30.609 --> 00:01:34.049
going into this stands. All of that is going

00:01:34.049 --> 00:01:38.370
to stay as it is. Wedgies are a chance for us

00:01:38.370 --> 00:01:42.370
to move forward and reinterpret and rediscuss

00:01:42.370 --> 00:01:45.150
rules as we go. And going forward, I will rule

00:01:45.150 --> 00:01:48.290
it as it should be. The attacks will be one death

00:01:48.290 --> 00:01:51.129
fail if it's an AoE, two death fails if it's

00:01:51.129 --> 00:01:53.730
a direct, precise strike within 5 feet, within

00:01:53.730 --> 00:01:56.170
melee range. That's all good. But I just want

00:01:56.170 --> 00:01:57.650
to let you guys know that I'm putting thought

00:01:57.650 --> 00:01:59.069
into this, really, really thinking about it.

00:01:59.209 --> 00:02:01.170
And that's how I want things to move forward.

00:02:01.250 --> 00:02:03.010
But thank you so much, Andrew. Thank you so much

00:02:03.010 --> 00:02:05.010
to anyone who points these things out and helps

00:02:05.010 --> 00:02:08.710
us to grow, to step forward, and to better interpret

00:02:08.710 --> 00:02:11.509
and change the way we make our game, the way

00:02:11.509 --> 00:02:13.789
we make our rules. Because as you see, there

00:02:13.789 --> 00:02:16.990
are hefty consequences to this story anytime

00:02:16.990 --> 00:02:20.629
we take that swing. So thank you so much. I'll

00:02:20.629 --> 00:02:23.030
get out of your hair now. Enjoy this episode.

00:02:23.189 --> 00:03:13.680
It is... Awesome! Ushikatsu famously blends these

00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:15.840
two concepts, wielding the powers of the storm

00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:18.500
in his role as an Amizu luminary. But did you

00:03:18.500 --> 00:03:21.939
know he is not the only one? Enter Rieta, the

00:03:21.939 --> 00:03:25.139
Devil Fish, also known as the Shanty Sorceress.

00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:27.520
Now it's no secret that Amizu has a pirate problem.

00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:29.860
Those that stand to disrupt the brigands are

00:03:29.860 --> 00:03:32.500
often celebrated, and few titles spark more fear

00:03:32.500 --> 00:03:35.919
in pirate hearts than the Devil Fish. Named for

00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:38.280
the very fear she inspired, Rieta served as a

00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:41.039
merchant marine sailor and ship protector. Though

00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:43.159
a tiefling, she carried with her the blood of

00:03:43.159 --> 00:03:46.800
a bronze dragon and wields draconic magic. This

00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:48.379
magic is her primary way to fight, though she

00:03:48.379 --> 00:03:50.020
is known to carry a collection of daggers for

00:03:50.020 --> 00:03:52.580
her catapult spell. Much like the storm eye himself,

00:03:52.900 --> 00:03:54.599
Rihanna tends towards the use of lightning and

00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:56.639
wind -based magic, channeling the various storms

00:03:56.639 --> 00:03:59.400
she would often sail through. And of course,

00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:01.240
fighting mostly upon the wooden planks of sailing

00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:05.120
vessels, she never used fire. Though Rihanna

00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:06.900
lived the life of a devil fish for many years,

00:04:07.099 --> 00:04:09.400
slaying pirates and saving lives, an event would

00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:11.500
occur that would change her path and bring her

00:04:11.500 --> 00:04:14.680
into the spotlight. A tragic shipwreck that took

00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:16.959
the lives of every one of the crew, except for

00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:19.740
her. Though Rhea survived, they've had, like,

00:04:19.740 --> 00:04:22.879
scars on her heart. She soon moved on from the

00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:25.279
world of Romizu, stepping away from the sea and

00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:28.459
journeying to the Radiant Citadel. One aspect

00:04:28.459 --> 00:04:29.959
of her former life has traveled with her, though,

00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:33.420
leading to her second moniker, the Shanty Sorceress,

00:04:33.459 --> 00:04:35.379
as she tends to call upon her magic through the

00:04:35.379 --> 00:04:38.060
singing of sea shanties. So criminals all over

00:04:38.060 --> 00:04:41.360
best fear when they hear a sailing song. No violent

00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:44.319
villain is safe. Now the devil fish has left

00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:49.100
the sea. Thank you again, Zila. Oh, my gosh.

00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:51.100
We got two. We got two for two. I figured it's

00:04:51.100 --> 00:04:53.100
a two -episode night. I got two luminaries polished

00:04:53.100 --> 00:04:55.959
on Zila. And, I mean, you know what? It's cool.

00:04:56.139 --> 00:04:58.579
It's cool. Two luminaries. How much art do you

00:04:58.579 --> 00:05:02.399
think Zila produced between the time we did the

00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:04.399
two episodes? I bet you a million dollars. It's

00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:06.980
been like four minutes. She did Crispin DuBois'

00:05:07.220 --> 00:05:13.819
portrait. Stop. She did Crispin DuBois. Oh my

00:05:13.819 --> 00:05:15.920
gosh. It's only been five minutes for us and

00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:17.800
we're still feeling it. Well, this is two episode

00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:20.180
night and this past episode that we recorded,

00:05:20.379 --> 00:05:22.939
it was just before Christmas and now this one

00:05:22.939 --> 00:05:24.920
is going to be just before New Year's. Happy

00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:28.120
New Year. Happy New Year. Yeah, who didn't get

00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:31.220
to see New Year's? Yeah, fuck you. Yeah. Oh my

00:05:31.220 --> 00:05:34.540
gosh. I felt so bad but I knew I had to do it.

00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:36.800
It was like, I mean, I'd be an idiot. I would

00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:39.199
be a fool if I didn't go all out. This is the

00:05:39.199 --> 00:05:41.860
most vile villain we've had in the show so far.

00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:45.829
This is a powerhouse yeah but man this is this

00:05:45.829 --> 00:05:47.649
is a crazy fight this is intense because i'm

00:05:47.649 --> 00:05:50.149
not doing great either this i'm not entirely

00:05:50.149 --> 00:05:52.649
sure that you are the underdogs in this combat

00:05:52.649 --> 00:05:55.910
right now perhaps tonight we will see the end

00:05:55.910 --> 00:05:59.009
of it every time you like pull off some bullshit

00:05:59.009 --> 00:06:01.149
i'm like okay that's gotta be the last time you

00:06:01.149 --> 00:06:03.490
can do that right okay it's gotta be the last

00:06:03.490 --> 00:06:07.069
time you can do that right oh but it's david

00:06:07.069 --> 00:06:11.189
i am using such an overpowered villain right

00:06:11.189 --> 00:06:13.779
now but You know, this is how it has to be sometimes.

00:06:13.980 --> 00:06:18.100
There are a hundred of you. Sometimes half the

00:06:18.100 --> 00:06:20.420
party just needs to die. Sometimes half the party

00:06:20.420 --> 00:06:22.480
just has to die. We gotta cull the weeds and

00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:26.600
let the garden grow anew. How am I going to build

00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:29.060
a more unkillable character than Crispin DuBois?

00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:31.879
It only took an entire arc of pushing you through

00:06:31.879 --> 00:06:33.899
combats to burn all your wild chips. It's been

00:06:33.899 --> 00:06:44.089
like 85 combats. This entire arc has been insane.

00:06:45.009 --> 00:06:46.550
Maybe this is the last episode of it? Maybe?

00:06:46.709 --> 00:06:49.810
Maybe? Maybe? I don't know. You're crazy. It

00:06:49.810 --> 00:06:52.769
was supposed to be like a two episode arc. Like

00:06:52.769 --> 00:06:54.949
you say every time. Two episode arc and now a

00:06:54.949 --> 00:06:59.009
three episode final fight. Yeah. Well, I have

00:06:59.009 --> 00:07:01.129
something to maybe lift your spirits. What's

00:07:01.129 --> 00:07:04.290
that? Your spirits. What's that? Wait, wait,

00:07:04.350 --> 00:07:10.970
wait, wait, wait. We've got more. More. Male.

00:07:11.170 --> 00:07:14.610
More. More male. I'm... I can't believe, dude.

00:07:14.709 --> 00:07:17.529
Wild. The generosity lately. The holiday season,

00:07:17.589 --> 00:07:19.029
I guess. Dude, right? Alright, you talk about

00:07:19.029 --> 00:07:20.980
that, I'm gonna grab him the knife. Oh, yes.

00:07:21.139 --> 00:07:22.279
I will need a knife to open this one. Do not

00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:23.899
give Steven a knife. I just killed his character.

00:07:24.139 --> 00:07:26.199
Oh, I'm giving him a knife. No! No! I'm giving

00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:28.639
him a knife. Pants people, help! This package

00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:32.579
comes from our buddy Don on Instagram. He is

00:07:32.579 --> 00:07:37.439
oakhammerandcraft. And he sent us... I mean,

00:07:37.480 --> 00:07:40.019
I got a bit of a preview, but I don't want to,

00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:43.959
like, talk about it until I open it. So, let

00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:51.649
me... Oh, my goodness. Oh, yeah. This one's fun.

00:07:52.910 --> 00:07:56.110
Here, David. Oh, my gosh. Nice letter for us

00:07:56.110 --> 00:07:59.730
to read. Whoa. Should I start? Yes, please do.

00:07:59.870 --> 00:08:02.509
I'm going to start to unwrap some of this because

00:08:02.509 --> 00:08:04.769
there's a lot of stuff in here. This thing is

00:08:04.769 --> 00:08:08.670
packed full. Oh, I love this. The very top is

00:08:08.670 --> 00:08:14.100
long note. I am sorry. hey guys happy d20 day

00:08:14.100 --> 00:08:16.860

Shall you forever be one year younger than me?

00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:30.819
Last December, I learned that December 20th is

00:08:30.819 --> 00:08:32.799
D20 day. And after I learned that Steven shares

00:08:32.799 --> 00:08:34.779
my day of birth and that we share this day, I

00:08:34.779 --> 00:08:37.659
decided that I was going to give him a D20. Ooh,

00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:40.039
so here it is. Steven, you know which bag is

00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:42.679
yours. I hope the tea is good. Now I raise better

00:08:42.679 --> 00:08:44.200
than just give one person something and not the

00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:46.899
group. Yes, New Yorkers do have manners. So I'm

00:08:46.899 --> 00:08:50.840
honored to do just that. Should we open a four?

00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:52.399
Just in case, you know, I'm going to keep reading.

00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:55.370
Okay. Sorry, I'm just like looking. One, happy

00:08:55.370 --> 00:08:57.950
birthday. Well, thank you so much. Two, you were

00:08:57.950 --> 00:09:00.009
phenomenal DM. Well, thank you so much. My goodness.

00:09:00.129 --> 00:09:02.809
Oh my gosh. I'm glowing. I hope you weren't a

00:09:02.809 --> 00:09:07.789
Crispin fan. Jeremy, one, why did you be the

00:09:07.789 --> 00:09:10.289
odd one out and not be a December kid? Why, Jeremy?

00:09:10.429 --> 00:09:13.029
Sorry. Let's hear an answer. Blame my parents.

00:09:14.149 --> 00:09:18.110
Blaming other people. Okay. Two, you are a phenomenal

00:09:18.110 --> 00:09:22.059
musician. It makes me miss playing my sax. With

00:09:22.059 --> 00:09:26.000
an X. Don't be gross. Saxophone. Ooh. You need

00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:29.200
a sweet sax drop. Ooh. Seriously, though, there's

00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:30.960
a mystery bag of dice for Misty Mountain Gaming

00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:33.620
inside a set of dice for each of you. Ooh. Since

00:09:33.620 --> 00:09:35.019
I don't know what is in there, I'll leave it

00:09:35.019 --> 00:09:36.759
to the group to decide how to split the contents

00:09:36.759 --> 00:09:39.320
of the box. Okay, that's it. There's nothing

00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:41.539
else in the box. All right. So I lied. There's

00:09:41.539 --> 00:09:44.419
more. I don't have self -restraint. So I do woodworking.

00:09:44.620 --> 00:09:46.360
That's how Stephen and I met. I include a book

00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:48.179
buddy for the three of you and your partners.

00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:50.820
Merry Christmas. Oh my gosh. There's also a box

00:09:50.820 --> 00:09:53.620
of coffee that has been sent in from Thomas Hammer,

00:09:53.779 --> 00:09:55.940
a local coffee roaster in Spokane, Washington.

00:09:56.139 --> 00:09:58.240
Holy moly. They're released at the end of the

00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:01.360
year and they never again. No, they never again.

00:10:01.480 --> 00:10:03.639
Holy crap. Every year it's different. To my knowledge,

00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:06.000
it has not been repeated. This is... Dope as

00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:08.779
a latte. David, because you're probably sawing.

00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:16.279
It's true. Child bad taste noises. I include

00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:19.059
some hot chocolate. Whoa, you're welcome. Thank

00:10:19.059 --> 00:10:22.460
you. Whipped cream not included. I also have

00:10:22.460 --> 00:10:25.179
a 3D printer. So I wanted to make some fun things

00:10:25.179 --> 00:10:27.500
for you guys. What? I like some tabletop organizations,

00:10:27.620 --> 00:10:29.759
so I made and designed each of you a button holder

00:10:29.759 --> 00:10:32.480
that also holds two D20, technically four, but

00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:34.919
intended for one, pens and five buttons. I also,

00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:37.080
please don't hate me. And if you don't use them,

00:10:37.139 --> 00:10:38.620
I understand. Though Stephen Turing won't be

00:10:38.620 --> 00:10:40.779
able to find them on the floor. Hint, hint, nudge,

00:10:40.799 --> 00:10:45.299
nudge. Made 15 fantasy pants buttons? Dude, look

00:10:45.299 --> 00:10:47.399
at these. Look at these. Look at these. What

00:10:47.399 --> 00:10:50.840
the fuck? They're incredible. It's got a logo.

00:10:51.100 --> 00:10:55.179
Oh, my God. Fantasy pants logo on one side. Button

00:10:55.179 --> 00:10:58.210
on the other side. Ugly Coyote. Yes, there's

00:10:58.210 --> 00:11:01.029
some Ugly Coyote stuff. Ugly Coyote coins. I

00:11:01.029 --> 00:11:02.289
receive a person from Hungry Familiar and request

00:11:02.289 --> 00:11:06.509
one sent to her. Oh, my gosh. Oh, yes. I got

00:11:06.509 --> 00:11:09.429
to send that to Meg as well. Here are our book

00:11:09.429 --> 00:11:11.190
buddies. There's also a few additional coins

00:11:11.190 --> 00:11:13.070
in the box. Both buttons on these are roughly

00:11:13.070 --> 00:11:15.129
modeled off of a challenge coin. This is my last

00:11:15.129 --> 00:11:16.830
gift to you guys and one for Hungry Familiar.

00:11:16.990 --> 00:11:20.350
Oh, my gosh. Yeah. I mean, check these out. Dude.

00:11:20.809 --> 00:11:22.529
Like to like, you know, put on your finger and

00:11:22.529 --> 00:11:23.870
you keep the page open while you're reading.

00:11:23.950 --> 00:11:26.110
Look, there's a book. There's like five of them.

00:11:26.129 --> 00:11:30.049
Oh, man. Or maybe there's. Holy shit. I can't

00:11:30.049 --> 00:11:31.370
even like I can't see the bottom of the box.

00:11:31.370 --> 00:11:33.929
There's another one. This is insane. Oh, my God.

00:11:34.570 --> 00:11:37.250
David, look at that. What is that? Now wait just

00:11:37.250 --> 00:11:41.090
a damn minute. Now wait just a damn minute. I

00:11:41.090 --> 00:11:43.110
think these are the dice holders he was talking

00:11:43.110 --> 00:11:46.370
about. Oh, my God. There's so much. There's too

00:11:46.370 --> 00:11:52.190
much. Holy crap. This is insane. Literally. Which

00:11:52.190 --> 00:11:54.590
one is this? Real quick. Let me finish this.

00:11:54.669 --> 00:11:56.970
I think this is the tea that has the dye in it.

00:11:57.190 --> 00:12:01.169
Oh. I got to get the dye. All right. All right.

00:12:01.190 --> 00:12:03.389
I gab like a Long Islander, so I'll leave you

00:12:03.389 --> 00:12:05.529
with a thank you. Thank you, Fancy Pants, for

00:12:05.529 --> 00:12:08.289
being the podcast I listen to. It's genuine and

00:12:08.289 --> 00:12:10.490
true, and that is something we can use more of.

00:12:10.570 --> 00:12:12.529
Your community is just that, honestly. They're

00:12:12.529 --> 00:12:14.649
amazing. Everyone, you're amazing. Everyone's

00:12:14.649 --> 00:12:17.440
amazing. Holy shit. We all want to see you succeed

00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:20.259
and grow. Thank you for including us in your

00:12:20.259 --> 00:12:22.580
game night. Hope to roll the dice with you someday.

00:12:22.899 --> 00:12:29.159
Don Ruger. Oh my god. Yeah, right? At oakhammerandcraft.

00:12:29.440 --> 00:12:33.039

tree. So, you know, we'll share that on our Instagram.

00:12:47.820 --> 00:12:49.419

Gaming D20 pin. Oh, my God. Ooh, it says Dungeon

00:13:39.139 --> 00:13:40.799
Master. I guess that one probably... That one's

00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:42.399
for you, David. Oh, give me that. I'm putting

00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:46.179
it on right now. Okay. And there's that. I want

00:13:46.179 --> 00:13:47.519
to wear this pin while I kill the rest of your

00:13:47.519 --> 00:13:50.559
characters. These are the Dice -a -ma -jogs.

00:13:51.120 --> 00:13:53.919
This is... Holy crap. Oh, my goodness. This is

00:13:53.919 --> 00:13:58.440
like a metric ton of hot cocoa for David. It

00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:02.500
is almost two pounds. Of hot chocolate. David.

00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:05.830
What the fuck? Huh. And look at this box. Look

00:14:05.830 --> 00:14:08.509
at this box with the coffee. This is the special

00:14:08.509 --> 00:14:10.450
blend that they do once a year and they change

00:14:10.450 --> 00:14:12.250
it. They don't do it again. That's a dumbbell.

00:14:12.330 --> 00:14:13.870
They do it once a year. Oh, I don't want to break

00:14:13.870 --> 00:14:16.429
into this. Well, I mean. I think we're going

00:14:16.429 --> 00:14:19.450
to. We're going to have to. Next episode. Oh,

00:14:19.549 --> 00:14:20.730
it should be the day after Christmas where we

00:14:20.730 --> 00:14:22.909
record it. So this will be a nice little treat

00:14:22.909 --> 00:14:25.370
on that day. That'll be the start of my holiday

00:14:25.370 --> 00:14:27.610
rush weeks. I almost would want that coffee.

00:14:27.710 --> 00:14:30.409
And these are the challenge coins, I think, with

00:14:30.409 --> 00:14:32.809
the Fantasy Pants logo on one side and the Oak

00:14:32.809 --> 00:14:36.759
Hammer and Craft. on the other oh man this is

00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:39.200
this is like crazy I gotta put this out here

00:14:39.200 --> 00:14:42.440
I was very adamant that I was too busy for buttons

00:14:42.440 --> 00:14:43.980
you know too busy for buttons these next few

00:14:43.980 --> 00:14:47.779
episodes but with these new buttons I'm feeling

00:14:47.779 --> 00:14:50.840
a little inspired feel inspired to give these

00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:53.039

00:14:53.039 --> 00:14:57.740

00:14:57.740 --> 00:15:00.070
pick first I was going to pick that one. Okay,

00:15:00.169 --> 00:15:01.629
you want the gray? Okay, I kind of wanted the

00:15:01.629 --> 00:15:02.889

00:15:11.190 --> 00:15:12.389
I already chose, so you don't get to choose.

00:15:16.570 --> 00:15:18.470
Maybe I won't be giving out buttons. Did I lose

00:15:18.470 --> 00:15:22.570
track of... No, there's so much. There's so much,

00:15:22.570 --> 00:15:27.269

00:15:27.269 --> 00:15:31.110
to thank you. This is, like, so crazy. Look at

00:15:31.110 --> 00:15:34.190
all this cool custom stuff. Hold on. Yeah, sorry.

00:15:34.269 --> 00:15:35.809
You were talking about buttons, David. I didn't

00:15:35.809 --> 00:15:37.190
mean to interrupt you. So buttons have the holes

00:15:37.190 --> 00:15:39.190
on the side, and then the ugly coyote coins have

00:15:39.190 --> 00:15:41.929
the ugly coyote on the other side. Oh, my gosh.

00:15:42.009 --> 00:15:46.009
Okay. All right. Wah. Wah. There's so many. 15.

00:15:47.070 --> 00:15:49.230
of the fantasy pants buttons stacks and stacks

00:15:49.230 --> 00:15:51.809
i have lost track of the other stuff trying to

00:15:51.809 --> 00:15:54.049
make sure that i'll never not see them again

00:15:54.049 --> 00:15:56.570
just like buttons everywhere gigantic oh my gosh

00:15:56.570 --> 00:16:00.789
and and uh you know orange and all sorts of warm

00:16:00.789 --> 00:16:04.450
colors it's so amazing it's so amazing holy shit

00:16:04.450 --> 00:16:09.289
ah thank thank you trying to get oh my gosh uh

00:16:09.289 --> 00:16:11.370
a little bit of space on the table once again

00:16:11.370 --> 00:16:16.500
yeah uh Kevin and Mike and Don and Zila. Like

00:16:16.500 --> 00:16:19.080
everyone, it's everybody. Andrew, who's been

00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:21.039
doing so much for us and giving us the Superior

00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:23.419
Healing Potion. Like everyone out there. I know

00:16:23.419 --> 00:16:25.879
we've missed 1 ,600 people and someday I'm going

00:16:25.879 --> 00:16:28.960
to list them all off. But thank you all so much.

00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:31.059
Well, right. Thank you all so, so, so much. And

00:16:31.059 --> 00:16:32.860
that's just what's happened in this very small

00:16:32.860 --> 00:16:34.919
little blip of time. Yeah. But think about over

00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:37.720
the course of the show where we've gotten, you

00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:40.600
know, stuff from I'm not going to try to list

00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:42.230
everybody because I'm going to forget. at least

00:16:42.230 --> 00:16:43.710
one person, I'm going to hurt somebody's feelings

00:16:43.710 --> 00:16:46.289
and that would crush me. But you all know who

00:16:46.289 --> 00:16:49.169
you are. We all know who you are. This is coming

00:16:49.169 --> 00:16:51.429
on the heels of, I know we don't usually talk

00:16:51.429 --> 00:16:53.190
about this sort of stuff until it happens, but

00:16:53.190 --> 00:16:55.070
by the time this episode releases, there's a

00:16:55.070 --> 00:16:57.470
great chance that we just crossed 20 ,000 downloads,

00:16:57.769 --> 00:17:03.070
which is like crazy and wild. Yeah. It's just

00:17:03.070 --> 00:17:06.490
really, really, really, really cool. Yeah. Well,

00:17:06.509 --> 00:17:08.190
as we dive into this next fight, as we go into

00:17:08.190 --> 00:17:10.450
this, one last note to put out there in the world.

00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:13.559
We're about to hit the new year. And I know it's

00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:15.539
time for new year, new me, all the big changes,

00:17:15.619 --> 00:17:18.660
all the self -development, all that. And if you're

00:17:18.660 --> 00:17:20.599
going for that, if you want to change, change.

00:17:21.099 --> 00:17:24.220
But Pants people, just know you're all perfect

00:17:24.220 --> 00:17:26.299
just the way you are. And we love you. Oh, my

00:17:26.299 --> 00:17:32.599
God. So cool. Yeah. So, so much. Amazing. Let's

00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:34.700
stop being happy. All right, David. All right.

00:17:34.700 --> 00:17:38.920
You ready to TPKS? Let's do it. Thank you, Don.

00:17:40.299 --> 00:17:45.339
The sound of thunder echoing across the landscape.

00:17:45.400 --> 00:17:48.700
Let's open up not in the Shrine of Storms as

00:17:48.700 --> 00:17:51.500
this last pulse of thunder has gone off, carrying

00:17:51.500 --> 00:17:55.359
with it the spirit of Crispin Dubois. Let's open

00:17:55.359 --> 00:18:00.140
instead on the conquered jewel, the pearl, which

00:18:00.140 --> 00:18:05.079
stands still upon the earth, upon the docking

00:18:05.079 --> 00:18:10.559
bay here in Amizu. You can see... The crowd still

00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:12.920
rowdy, but less so now it's been cordoned off.

00:18:12.980 --> 00:18:14.680
There's still people sort of standing, sort of

00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:16.980
prostrating themselves towards the west, towards

00:18:16.980 --> 00:18:19.579
the sky, where that draconic thing has exploded

00:18:19.579 --> 00:18:23.480
upwards, where the clouds have parted the storm,

00:18:23.579 --> 00:18:26.819
gone. Where a great prismatic sort of rainbow

00:18:26.819 --> 00:18:31.880
reaches down. And amongst those that watch, we

00:18:31.880 --> 00:18:34.660
see Captain Commander Ariad. I think a figure,

00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:36.400
I think we mentioned before, there's an Aarakoc

00:18:36.400 --> 00:18:37.839
or a lieutenant that kind of moves up behind.

00:18:38.730 --> 00:18:41.470
Sir, the Pearl has reached capacity. Are we still

00:18:41.470 --> 00:18:44.869
evacuating? The storm is... well... She sort

00:18:44.869 --> 00:18:47.789
of looks up at the blue sky, feeling the sun

00:18:47.789 --> 00:18:50.509
on her feathers, and Aria just stands silently

00:18:50.509 --> 00:18:53.069
watching, his face grim, people behind her still

00:18:53.069 --> 00:18:54.869
trying to get by, shield -bearers holding them

00:18:54.869 --> 00:18:57.950
off, but everyone looks to him. The big question.

00:18:58.609 --> 00:19:04.849
Are we leaving? No. Issue the command to hold.

00:19:04.990 --> 00:19:09.460
I have an odd feeling. He nods his head back

00:19:09.460 --> 00:19:12.440
out towards the base of that rainbow, towards

00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:17.819
the west, towards the Shrine of Storms. Let's

00:19:17.819 --> 00:19:23.000
give them a little bit longer. And we zoom across

00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:27.460
the land, back to the shrine. Before anything

00:19:27.460 --> 00:19:34.400
else happens, I have to roll some damage. He

00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:38.269
pulled out the knife, oh god. Oh, no. Roll that

00:19:38.269 --> 00:19:50.130
damage, David. Oh, no. Okay. Stop. That's so

00:19:50.130 --> 00:19:56.269
much, actually. Holy shit. David. Wow. Okay.

00:19:57.250 --> 00:20:02.750
Okay. I'm thankfully saving spell slots right

00:20:02.750 --> 00:20:05.930
now because I need them. But I still rolled.

00:20:06.269 --> 00:20:09.329
Pretty damn close to max on that. Thunderstep

00:20:09.329 --> 00:20:12.309
rockets out. It's enough to tear Crispin apart.

00:20:12.390 --> 00:20:14.529
Enough to drop Arhalon to two deathmails. He

00:20:14.529 --> 00:20:19.049
gets no save. The Echo, once again, gone. Destroyed.

00:20:19.509 --> 00:20:22.509
Akio and Blanche. Need to roll Constitution saving

00:20:22.509 --> 00:20:28.829
throws. Okay. Jeremy, can you pass me the Holy

00:20:28.829 --> 00:20:33.349
Water, please? Yeah. I have a new d20. It is

00:20:33.349 --> 00:20:35.329
admittedly a little difficult to read. The numbers

00:20:35.329 --> 00:20:41.109
are quite small, but I think it's time to give

00:20:41.109 --> 00:20:44.849
this one a chance. Ah, whatever. It's too late

00:20:44.849 --> 00:20:47.470
to upcast now. Damn it. It's still really good.

00:20:47.569 --> 00:20:49.410
It's still really good. Oh, I'm scared. My spell

00:20:49.410 --> 00:20:51.849
slots are getting a little rough. All right.

00:20:51.910 --> 00:20:54.490
I'm going to roll Akio's first. Typically...

00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:57.220
Enemies are just like, you can use this spell

00:20:57.220 --> 00:20:59.440
twice a day. This spell once a day. I'm kind

00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:01.460
of playing it wrong, but I want to play. I want

00:21:01.460 --> 00:21:04.700
to feel what a spell a Bladesnare can do. I want

00:21:04.700 --> 00:21:08.099
to feel it. Okay, single digits again for Akio's

00:21:08.099 --> 00:21:13.099
con save. Okay. Blanche gets advantage. Only

00:21:13.099 --> 00:21:17.319
if it's to maintain concentration. Oh, that's

00:21:17.319 --> 00:21:19.099
right. Which, don't worry, you'll be doing one

00:21:19.099 --> 00:21:24.380
of those next. Yeah. That's 24. Oh, my gosh.

00:21:24.619 --> 00:21:28.500
Yeah. You resist it. Okay. 17 points of damage

00:21:28.500 --> 00:21:32.259
to Akio, half to branch. Okay. Not the worst

00:21:32.259 --> 00:21:35.420
it could have been. You see Ozen disappears from

00:21:35.420 --> 00:21:37.799
the spot and actually appears, I deal with that,

00:21:37.839 --> 00:21:39.680
at the very base of the Court of Beauty where

00:21:39.680 --> 00:21:43.799
it intersects with the Court of Discipline. There

00:21:43.799 --> 00:21:45.900
is that tower with the Chinese Morning Ring,

00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:48.279
and there's a wall between the two. It is, from

00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:50.200
where you're standing, it's 20 feet high, and

00:21:50.200 --> 00:21:53.519
Ozen stands on top of it. He just moves to the

00:21:53.519 --> 00:21:56.200
top of this wall, five foot wide wall. He is

00:21:56.200 --> 00:21:58.799
not going to get surrounded again. He won't allow

00:21:58.799 --> 00:22:01.500
it. I'm going to roll for Blanche's concentration.

00:22:05.640 --> 00:22:10.319
Okay, that's 20. Okay, you're good. Yeah. Come

00:22:10.319 --> 00:22:15.400
at me then. Are you mad? You look down. You can

00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:17.460
see the broken form of Crispin is very clearly

00:22:17.460 --> 00:22:22.099
dead. Eyes staring up wide. Behind that fuzzy

00:22:22.099 --> 00:22:27.200
face. No light left. Blanche is looking down

00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:31.460
at Crispin. That tells me there's not an inkling

00:22:31.460 --> 00:22:34.960
left of Ozen in there. We will end you here.

00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:42.140
And avenge our master. Please. Try. That's me

00:22:42.140 --> 00:22:46.819
Crispin Du Bois to... Oh, silly me. I hate you.

00:22:47.500 --> 00:22:52.480
Oh, my God. President Kelly your echo has been

00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:54.680
again upload that echo. Holy yeah, it goes pulling

00:22:54.680 --> 00:22:57.680
its weight I mean, oh man, that's if I got that

00:22:57.680 --> 00:23:00.619
39 damage on Blanche and then did that under

00:23:00.619 --> 00:23:05.039
step? Echo is clutch Crispin and resin sticks

00:23:05.039 --> 00:23:07.619
strong Stephen. I'm thinking of doing something

00:23:07.619 --> 00:23:09.319
completely different from what I said I was gonna

00:23:09.319 --> 00:23:16.730
do. Haha. Okay, I should know as always That's

00:23:16.730 --> 00:23:19.210
the thing, there's no good answer. There's no

00:23:19.210 --> 00:23:21.710
good answer, no. I should note, as Ozen was speaking

00:23:21.710 --> 00:23:24.349
to you, his throat is once again swollen, that

00:23:24.349 --> 00:23:28.069
blue light kind of pulsing inside as he speaks,

00:23:28.150 --> 00:23:30.470
like wisps of almost like sparking energy kind

00:23:30.470 --> 00:23:34.170
of blast outside of his mouth. That spell is

00:23:34.170 --> 00:23:36.470
an active augmentation. That's Ozen's specialty,

00:23:36.609 --> 00:23:38.910
is augmenting his physical form to make himself

00:23:38.910 --> 00:23:43.569
stronger. His dragon breath has replaced haste

00:23:43.569 --> 00:23:46.789
because haste is terrifying to me. I have used

00:23:46.789 --> 00:23:50.250
all of my legendary actions. I have used my reaction

00:23:50.250 --> 00:23:55.109
on this turn. Maybe, maybe you can seize an opening

00:23:55.109 --> 00:23:58.089
here, but if I go again, I'm killing someone

00:23:58.089 --> 00:24:01.829
else. Yeah. And you can be damn sure of it. Okay.

00:24:03.670 --> 00:24:06.670
I think that's the move. You got to try to end

00:24:06.670 --> 00:24:10.349
it this round, I think. Yeah. So either go with

00:24:10.349 --> 00:24:12.569
what I told you was my original plan or what

00:24:12.569 --> 00:24:17.059
I just said there. Because if I go with the original,

00:24:17.259 --> 00:24:23.180
I can't get away. My only... If a plan takes

00:24:23.180 --> 00:24:26.240
two or three rounds to set up, we might be dead

00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:31.099
by then. Yes. It doesn't need to be set up, though.

00:24:31.240 --> 00:24:34.059
Okay. This new plan. Sure. All right. Well, then

00:24:34.059 --> 00:24:37.059
that sounds fantastic. Because... Okay. Closed

00:24:37.059 --> 00:24:38.539
roll 20 while you're plotting. I'm just desperately

00:24:38.539 --> 00:24:42.039
trying to reopen my tabs. Okay. I think we can

00:24:42.039 --> 00:24:44.730
make this work. Okay. Okay. Okay. Oh, you see

00:24:44.730 --> 00:24:47.269
again? You pulled crazy shit off before. You're

00:24:47.269 --> 00:24:48.730
doing better than I thought you would do. I'll

00:24:48.730 --> 00:24:52.069
be honest. Dresden. What? Is going to run into

00:24:52.069 --> 00:24:56.529
the mech. Okay. Yep, you're within range. Where's

00:24:56.529 --> 00:24:59.029
the sheet that has all the stuff? It's under

00:24:59.029 --> 00:25:01.730
your items in your... Okay. Yep, go to your items.

00:25:01.769 --> 00:25:04.089
It'll be underneath your bag. You have the apparatus

00:25:04.089 --> 00:25:07.589
of the crab in there. And you're going to see

00:25:07.589 --> 00:25:09.589
there's ten. Basically, you can pull two levers

00:25:09.589 --> 00:25:13.369
with an action. these levers will do certain

00:25:13.369 --> 00:25:15.769
things. Like, basically, you can turn the mech.

00:25:15.829 --> 00:25:17.710
You can have the mech swat out and attack in

00:25:17.710 --> 00:25:19.430
the area in front of it. You can have it move

00:25:19.430 --> 00:25:21.910
forward, backwards. You can have it, you know,

00:25:21.910 --> 00:25:23.529
dive down. Okay, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold

00:25:23.529 --> 00:25:25.950
on. Give it a read, give it a read. Be sure of

00:25:25.950 --> 00:25:27.430
yourself. Yeah, I was going to say, can I give

00:25:27.430 --> 00:25:29.710
this a read real quick before I actually decide

00:25:29.710 --> 00:25:31.769
to move into it? Seriously, do it. Okay. Take

00:25:31.769 --> 00:25:36.210
your time. Okay. Yes. Dresden is going to get

00:25:36.210 --> 00:25:39.259
into the mech. Okay. Jump in. You see the levers.

00:25:39.400 --> 00:25:40.839
You know what they do now. You took the time

00:25:40.839 --> 00:25:43.019
to learn them. Mech, I should say, right now,

00:25:43.119 --> 00:25:45.940
on your sheet is 200 HP. It's down to 100 HP.

00:25:46.140 --> 00:25:49.980
Okay. It took 50 from before that, from the guards,

00:25:50.119 --> 00:25:52.140
from the zappies, and it took 50 from the explosion.

00:25:53.440 --> 00:25:55.299
Perfect. Oh, it was also down from the explosion,

00:25:55.420 --> 00:25:57.220
as you mentioned. I had deburr and a spell slot

00:25:57.220 --> 00:26:01.559
on. Not taking all of that. Okay. So, I've seen

00:26:01.559 --> 00:26:07.150
what it can do. Shit. With one lever. Shit, I

00:26:07.150 --> 00:26:09.430
don't know if he can. He can't attack. Because

00:26:09.430 --> 00:26:11.789
if he takes the action to move, he can't attack.

00:26:12.069 --> 00:26:14.990
Right. I am 20 feet up, too. Yeah. I think he's

00:26:14.990 --> 00:26:17.809
10 feet up. You said 10. No, 20 on this side,

00:26:17.869 --> 00:26:19.609
10 on the other side. 10 from the Court of Discipline,

00:26:19.609 --> 00:26:21.369
20 on the Court of Beauty. Because he goes downstairs

00:26:21.369 --> 00:26:23.269
from the Court of Discipline. Oh, God. I still

00:26:23.269 --> 00:26:26.730
think that's a good move, though. No. Hey, got

00:26:26.730 --> 00:26:27.970
to do what we got to do. We got to do what we

00:26:27.970 --> 00:26:31.630
got to do. What? So he'll get two actions, only

00:26:31.630 --> 00:26:35.069
if it's the movement. So can I move it with one

00:26:35.069 --> 00:26:39.660
action? And take another action as Dresden? Or

00:26:39.660 --> 00:26:42.079
is it just the two with the movement? Oh, interesting.

00:26:42.779 --> 00:26:45.599
Interesting. Yeah. Ooh, that's a weird bargain.

00:26:45.700 --> 00:26:47.559
Well, I mean, let's think about that. Because

00:26:47.559 --> 00:26:50.140
if you move it, you get two attacks and you can

00:26:50.140 --> 00:26:53.000
pull two levers. I'm willing to... I think, you

00:26:53.000 --> 00:26:54.359
know, this is definitely not how the rules go.

00:26:54.460 --> 00:26:56.420
I don't care. I think it's fun. You can pull

00:26:56.420 --> 00:26:58.940
one lever and do one attack. Because, I mean,

00:26:58.960 --> 00:26:59.940
that's the same movements, right? Well, because

00:26:59.940 --> 00:27:01.880
then I'm going to add one little thing into it

00:27:01.880 --> 00:27:04.480
is I want it to manifest my echo. It's like texting

00:27:04.480 --> 00:27:06.460
and driving. Bonus action. Bonus action. Okay,

00:27:06.579 --> 00:27:08.740
cool. Yeah, do all three. Okay, perfect. You're

00:27:08.740 --> 00:27:10.319
just going to do one attack, though, with this.

00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:13.180
Yes, that's fine. That's fine. That's fine. So

00:27:13.180 --> 00:27:16.980
Dresden is going to move the mech within range

00:27:16.980 --> 00:27:23.019
enough to manifest his echo up. If there's, yeah,

00:27:23.079 --> 00:27:25.519
if there's enough. Manifested, yeah, 30 feet.

00:27:26.200 --> 00:27:29.450
One more forward. Okay. Yep. To manifest his

00:27:29.450 --> 00:27:32.269
echo. So you just dive in. Basically. Hit the

00:27:32.269 --> 00:27:34.150
lever. Then I just kind of skitter, skitter,

00:27:34.210 --> 00:27:35.730
skitter. Its legs are kind of damaged, but it

00:27:35.730 --> 00:27:38.269
still kind of pumps, moves. It still has power.

00:27:38.329 --> 00:27:39.630
You, like, rip open the hatch, which is kind

00:27:39.630 --> 00:27:41.789
of bent in there. Network's damaged. Sit down.

00:27:41.849 --> 00:27:44.690
Hit it. You slide across. As you kind of are

00:27:44.690 --> 00:27:46.170
looking through the tubes, you look at O's new

00:27:46.170 --> 00:27:50.970
standing tall, and you flash your echo. Boom.

00:27:51.009 --> 00:27:54.130
Ozen. You're staring through the two, like, scopes

00:27:54.130 --> 00:27:56.930
in the mech. One scope sees Ozen. One scope sees

00:27:56.930 --> 00:27:58.829
the Echo as he appears right beside him. Yep.

00:27:59.009 --> 00:28:01.109
Hell yeah. And he's going to attack him. Okay.

00:28:01.789 --> 00:28:04.089
I have used my reaction. This is terrifying.

00:28:04.089 --> 00:28:06.789
I know. All I can do is watch. Yep. All I can

00:28:06.789 --> 00:28:10.390
do is watch. 17 is not going to hit. It's not

00:28:10.390 --> 00:28:14.910
going to hit. Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck. Um, Dresden

00:28:14.910 --> 00:28:18.730
has Bardic. Ha, ha, ha. That's a tough Bardic.

00:28:18.750 --> 00:28:23.119
Yeah, that's... You got a 50 % chance. Oh, man.

00:28:23.579 --> 00:28:26.740
When else is he going to use? We have a number

00:28:26.740 --> 00:28:29.519
of people going. That's crazy. Now is the chance.

00:28:29.819 --> 00:28:31.759
That's crazy. And extra damage if it hits, too.

00:28:32.039 --> 00:28:35.480
Yeah. Oh, man. Oh, shit. That makes it worth

00:28:35.480 --> 00:28:38.700
it. I will give you this, too. Absolutely. I

00:28:38.700 --> 00:28:42.450
will allow a button. or button advantage on a

00:28:42.450 --> 00:28:45.609
Marduk, too. Whoa, that is a deal of a lifetime.

00:28:45.789 --> 00:28:47.490
All out. Because we have these really cool new

00:28:47.490 --> 00:28:49.450
buttons, and I want to get one. You kind of got

00:28:49.450 --> 00:28:52.250
it. So we're at 17 right now. What is it, 22?

00:28:53.029 --> 00:28:56.339
That's what you've seen. Is it 22? Okay. So I

00:28:56.339 --> 00:28:58.099
need a five or higher. This is incredible. Your

00:28:58.099 --> 00:29:00.599
inside of mech thing appears golden low around

00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:02.299
the... Dude, I love this too, because it's probably

00:29:02.299 --> 00:29:04.980
around Dresden, but as the echo appears, the

00:29:04.980 --> 00:29:06.940
golden note sort of shifts from you and shifts

00:29:06.940 --> 00:29:08.720
into the other you that stands apart as you kind

00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:11.119
of become the echo for a half second. Slaking

00:29:11.119 --> 00:29:13.799
in, not quite hitting, but that bardic is empowering

00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:21.019
you! First was a four. Oh, God. Second was a

00:29:21.019 --> 00:29:27.630
fucking three. Oh! So close. Damn, damn, damn.

00:29:27.710 --> 00:29:31.109
Nothing. 21. Nothing. That's bullshit. Kicks

00:29:31.109 --> 00:29:36.490
to the side. And that is Dresden's turn. So close.

00:29:37.009 --> 00:29:43.089
So close. Oh, my God. Oh, okay. That's Dresden.

00:29:43.289 --> 00:29:46.069
But now, but your body is safely inside this

00:29:46.069 --> 00:29:47.990
mech. It's sealed up behind you. As you move

00:29:47.990 --> 00:29:50.630
in, it kind of like moves up there. You have

00:29:50.630 --> 00:29:53.329
this extra HP pool. You are protected, Dresden.

00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:58.220
But for how long? Holy shit. That's Arhalon.

00:29:58.539 --> 00:30:01.359
And he's making a death save. And he's at two

00:30:01.359 --> 00:30:05.000
fails. Oh, shit. Yeah, he's before. So we don't

00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:07.559
have a choice there. I mean, he came in. He took

00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:10.980
hits. He showed up. He showed up and just got

00:30:10.980 --> 00:30:15.180
dropped. But, like, he took so much hit. Like,

00:30:15.180 --> 00:30:17.940
so many hits for the rest of you. Again, that

00:30:17.940 --> 00:30:19.119
breath weapon would have been on Blanche if it

00:30:19.119 --> 00:30:21.789
wasn't for Arhalon. He had to... He had to be

00:30:21.789 --> 00:30:24.130
there. Since I'm controlling Arhalon, can I use

00:30:24.130 --> 00:30:27.609
a button? Absolutely you can. Cool. Last button.

00:30:27.750 --> 00:30:31.490
Oh my god. Okay. One brass has already fallen.

00:30:31.589 --> 00:30:34.890
Will the brother fall as well? Arhalon lays.

00:30:35.650 --> 00:30:39.849
Dying. First roll's a 19. Nice. That's great.

00:30:39.970 --> 00:30:43.750
Roll the other one in case you crit. Second roll's

00:30:43.750 --> 00:30:48.690
a 9. Arhalon is lying. And he's seeing the new

00:30:48.690 --> 00:31:01.059
play. I think Jules can feel it. And he says,

00:31:01.220 --> 00:31:05.500
not yet. And you say that, and it's not your

00:31:05.500 --> 00:31:10.920
voice that says those words. Oh, shit. Not yet,

00:31:10.960 --> 00:31:15.900
brother. And Arlon grits his teeth and pulls

00:31:15.900 --> 00:31:20.250
himself back. He is for now. Still alive. Oh,

00:31:20.269 --> 00:31:24.910
my God. Fucking hell. Okay. That's Blanche. It's

00:31:24.910 --> 00:31:28.269
Akio. What? The turn order you gave me was Dresden,

00:31:28.329 --> 00:31:31.470
then Akio. No, Akio's after Ozen. He was the

00:31:31.470 --> 00:31:33.710
first one to go. Oh. Oops, because I messed up.

00:31:34.210 --> 00:31:42.630
Okay. Blanche, then, is going to 20 feet, then...

00:31:42.630 --> 00:31:45.089
I'm unflankable right now, by the way. I've made

00:31:45.089 --> 00:31:51.059
myself as strong as I can get. So with her haste

00:31:51.059 --> 00:31:56.160
and her blade song, as quick as a flash, Blanche

00:31:56.160 --> 00:31:59.900
moves a few paces here in front of the wall.

00:32:00.579 --> 00:32:04.099
And as she reaches this point, her steps begin

00:32:04.099 --> 00:32:08.960
to slow and get more deliberate as she lowers

00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:13.420
her sword and raises a hand. And her hand turns

00:32:13.420 --> 00:32:17.599
blue and a beam of crackling energy glances out.

00:32:18.539 --> 00:32:22.599
I'm going to make a roll, and I'm going to use

00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:26.700
my button. What are you doing? Don't forget,

00:32:26.759 --> 00:32:28.359
you also have another bard. I've got my bardic

00:32:28.359 --> 00:32:31.859
here. What are you doing? And I've got my new

00:32:31.859 --> 00:32:42.019
dawn d20. What are you doing? No. Highest roll

00:32:42.019 --> 00:32:50.109
was a 12. Nothing happens except Blanche loses

00:32:50.109 --> 00:32:55.549
haste. You lost haste? I was casting another

00:32:55.549 --> 00:32:57.609
concentration spell. Steven, that means you're

00:32:57.609 --> 00:33:03.670
frozen for a turn. Blanche, you try to put everything

00:33:03.670 --> 00:33:10.069
into this. Advantage plus seven to hit. I had

00:33:10.069 --> 00:33:13.509
my bardic, but it wouldn't have helped. You shoot.

00:33:13.789 --> 00:33:17.269
I think you're... blast, sort of blast, arcs

00:33:17.269 --> 00:33:20.730
up towards this wall, and Ozen's blade just,

00:33:20.809 --> 00:33:22.910
you know, proffered forward, and the blade, almost

00:33:22.910 --> 00:33:24.730
like a song of the magical energy going around

00:33:24.730 --> 00:33:27.430
it, almost just like repels, almost like it absorbs

00:33:27.430 --> 00:33:29.089
it partially and just shoots off to the side,

00:33:29.130 --> 00:33:34.150
repelling your final shot. Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

00:33:34.910 --> 00:33:39.009
You poor small things! You know not what you're

00:33:39.009 --> 00:33:42.329
doing and striking at me! But I'll be truthful

00:33:42.329 --> 00:33:48.789
with you. I may be a god, To you, mortals. But

00:33:48.789 --> 00:33:55.009
I do not love you. I hate you. I hate every single

00:33:55.009 --> 00:33:59.950
one of you. But I will reforge you into children

00:33:59.950 --> 00:34:05.349
I can love. And you will not stand in my way.

00:34:05.509 --> 00:34:09.389
Jules, that's you. Goes and stands invincible.

00:34:10.210 --> 00:34:13.869
Is there anything? I feel like I have to continue

00:34:13.869 --> 00:34:17.380
with that plan. I want to do other things, but...

00:34:17.380 --> 00:34:21.519
It's a lot harder now, but... Yep. Okay. Okay.

00:34:22.159 --> 00:34:27.840
So, Jules will fly himself on the broom. That's

00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:29.059
right. You've been moving on the broom this whole

00:34:29.059 --> 00:34:31.500
time, just sliding around. Hell yeah. Into the

00:34:31.500 --> 00:34:35.820
mech. Into the mech? What? And as he's moving,

00:34:35.900 --> 00:34:40.639
as he's flying, he turns his back to the right,

00:34:40.659 --> 00:34:43.769
so his loot is facing Arhalon. And cast level

00:34:43.769 --> 00:34:47.670
three healing word. Ooh, okay. On to Arhalon.

00:34:48.010 --> 00:34:52.969
Okay. Arhalon's eyes snap open. He's reaching,

00:34:53.070 --> 00:34:55.570
reaching not for the light, but for the fight.

00:34:55.630 --> 00:34:58.809
Reaching back here to protect his allies, to

00:34:58.809 --> 00:35:02.869
stand again. So that's 3d4 plus four. Okay. That's

00:35:02.869 --> 00:35:05.789
not much. He wakes up and Akio's just like, oh,

00:35:05.869 --> 00:35:09.230
sorry. He rolls off. Akio's just standing on

00:35:09.230 --> 00:35:11.050
his, I'm just moving Akio to the side a little

00:35:11.050 --> 00:35:21.079
bit. So that's 13. 13. Okay. Our Alonzo. Groaning

00:35:21.079 --> 00:35:24.760
in pain, blackened, just like deep cuts, and

00:35:24.760 --> 00:35:27.300
like scars are blackened, electrocuted flesh,

00:35:27.440 --> 00:35:29.300
but he managed to kind of move up again. He's

00:35:29.300 --> 00:35:34.760
felt this pain before. Jules, you slide up behind

00:35:34.760 --> 00:35:37.539
Dresden, taking the second seat from the mech,

00:35:37.539 --> 00:35:39.880
I imagine, or what are you doing? You're on your

00:35:39.880 --> 00:35:42.480
own. Yeah, and he's closing the door on his way

00:35:42.480 --> 00:35:46.309
in. Door closes, hell yeah. Okay. Yeah, and I

00:35:46.309 --> 00:35:47.510
mentioned the next painting forward, so you're

00:35:47.510 --> 00:35:48.909
behind, so it makes sense you just drive right

00:35:48.909 --> 00:35:51.630
in the back and the doors are open. Hit a switch.

00:35:52.250 --> 00:35:55.010
And as a bonus action... Oh, you know what? Actually,

00:35:55.050 --> 00:35:58.150
can I revert just a little bit on the way? Yeah.

00:35:58.250 --> 00:36:00.230
As a bonus action. So he casts Healing Word,

00:36:00.409 --> 00:36:02.570
and then he casts Bardic Inspiration onto Arhalon.

00:36:02.670 --> 00:36:06.329
Oh, okay. Hell yeah. And I believe that is my

00:36:06.329 --> 00:36:09.110
last Bardic. That is my last Bardic. Oh, we're

00:36:09.110 --> 00:36:13.570
using everything here. This is insanity. But

00:36:13.570 --> 00:36:15.250
Arholon's back in the fight, and that is a problem

00:36:15.250 --> 00:36:19.929
for me. Oh, shit, but that's my turn. Oh, this

00:36:19.929 --> 00:36:22.869
is tough. I kind of like where I am. I don't

00:36:22.869 --> 00:36:26.730
want to move. Moving's bad for me. Oh, but I'm

00:36:26.730 --> 00:36:28.610
20 feet up, which means my breath won't touch

00:36:28.610 --> 00:36:31.690
you. That's not good either. What are you going

00:36:31.690 --> 00:36:34.210
to do about it, dummy? If I go in on you now,

00:36:34.409 --> 00:36:39.250
I might kill Blanche. Then I've got so many guys

00:36:39.250 --> 00:36:41.090
that are going to swarm on top of my body right

00:36:41.090 --> 00:36:43.289
there and then. So we're going to take it slow

00:36:43.289 --> 00:36:48.849
this turn. I'm going to... Oh, this sucks. But

00:36:48.849 --> 00:36:50.349
I mean, yeah, you know what? This is fine. This

00:36:50.349 --> 00:36:53.789
is fine. I mean, for free, I'll just bonus action

00:36:53.789 --> 00:36:55.389
Breath of the Echo. Just get rid of that thing.

00:36:55.429 --> 00:36:57.570
Get rid of your bonus action. Just kind of spins

00:36:57.570 --> 00:37:01.530
aside and lightning crackles out. Echo vanishes.

00:37:01.849 --> 00:37:03.769
And that sort of spark of lightning, I'm going

00:37:03.769 --> 00:37:06.869
to turn towards Blanche. I can only change one

00:37:06.869 --> 00:37:10.010
attack for a cantrip. Oh man, this is really

00:37:10.010 --> 00:37:12.150
tough, but I'm really in a good defensive spot

00:37:12.150 --> 00:37:14.030
here, so I'm gonna take it. Ozen's instincts

00:37:14.030 --> 00:37:16.190
are to fight defensively, and I think those instincts

00:37:16.190 --> 00:37:18.690
are ruling my decision -making. I think that

00:37:18.690 --> 00:37:21.809
makes sense. The memories, the strategies of

00:37:21.809 --> 00:37:24.690
Ozen, that is who you are competing against.

00:37:24.750 --> 00:37:26.769
You can feel it, Blanche. This is not, well,

00:37:26.829 --> 00:37:29.730
this is a Sapphire Wyvern. This fighting style

00:37:29.730 --> 00:37:32.610
belongs to your master. So I'm instead going

00:37:32.610 --> 00:37:36.440
to just use one cast of... Too far from... Yeah,

00:37:36.500 --> 00:37:40.079
okay. So I'll use, essentially, instead of firebolt,

00:37:40.239 --> 00:37:44.000
it's going to be a lightning bolt. Okay. A quick

00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:48.300
blast down there. It's going to be 18 on the

00:37:48.300 --> 00:37:50.880
die. That will definitely hit, I think. Oh, actually,

00:37:50.940 --> 00:37:53.280
what's on the die? Okay. I shouldn't have said

00:37:53.280 --> 00:37:54.420
that. What's on the die? Because now you're going

00:37:54.420 --> 00:38:01.400
to know. Oh. What's your AC? I'll tell you. Right

00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:06.309
now, without haste, it's 21. Okay. Even with

00:38:06.309 --> 00:38:08.090
shield, you will not be able to stop me. She

00:38:08.090 --> 00:38:11.389
can't use shield because of the ending of haste.

00:38:12.010 --> 00:38:15.030
Wow, that's so brutal. Okay. While you stand

00:38:15.030 --> 00:38:26.650
defenseless, I'm going to rock you up. Did he

00:38:26.650 --> 00:38:30.949
just roll four d12s? Yeah. Wait, is it d12? No,

00:38:30.949 --> 00:38:34.280
d10. Oh. Still. Yeah. From across the table?

00:38:34.400 --> 00:38:37.019
You should know, I am using max little cantrips.

00:38:37.019 --> 00:38:39.119
That's why this is a devastating play. So even

00:38:39.119 --> 00:38:40.980
though I'm only taking the one move, I'm still

00:38:40.980 --> 00:38:42.940
going to do 19 points of damage to Blanche. Oh,

00:38:42.940 --> 00:38:47.260
no. That's really bad. Is Blanche down? No. Oh,

00:38:47.260 --> 00:38:50.579
shit. Blanche has got nine HP. Oh, my God. Again,

00:38:50.980 --> 00:38:53.000
like this blast of lightning rockets through

00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:55.500
you. You can feel it just like this quick. And

00:38:55.500 --> 00:38:58.519
you're frozen in place, helplessly being blasted

00:38:58.519 --> 00:39:02.170
as this. malign sapphire jewel just looks down

00:39:02.170 --> 00:39:05.650
and you can feel that oozing hatred coming off

00:39:05.650 --> 00:39:09.690
of it. You can feel eons of hatred crushing you.

00:39:10.329 --> 00:39:11.710
But that's actually going to be my whole turn.

00:39:12.090 --> 00:39:15.070
I already have my... Yeah, right? You know what?

00:39:15.670 --> 00:39:17.150
Man, I shouldn't have dropped haste. That was

00:39:17.150 --> 00:39:19.010
so stupid. I could have done something so cool.

00:39:19.110 --> 00:39:22.750
Oh, but I already used it. Damn. Damn, damn,

00:39:22.829 --> 00:39:24.090
damn, damn. Okay, never mind. I can't do it.

00:39:24.449 --> 00:39:27.139
I already used my spell. Yeah, that's it. I can't

00:39:27.139 --> 00:39:29.539
believe I missed that spell until now. It's fine.

00:39:29.639 --> 00:39:32.659
Next turn. His anger is, like, flushing. He's

00:39:32.659 --> 00:39:34.519
not thinking the way he could be. He didn't use

00:39:34.519 --> 00:39:37.000
that cool thing. But it's fine because Blanche

00:39:37.000 --> 00:39:39.539
is down to 9 HP, and that is something to celebrate.

00:39:40.699 --> 00:39:43.440
Dude, I'm going to be upset if you kill Blanche.

00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:47.639
Seriously. I'm obviously bummed that Crispin

00:39:47.639 --> 00:39:53.099
is dead. Yeah. This is bad. It'll be another

00:39:53.099 --> 00:39:56.650
level. That's a kill. Okay. I've been staring

00:39:56.650 --> 00:39:58.650
at the screen for a while. Almost dead Akio.

00:39:58.869 --> 00:40:02.610
Almost dead Akio. Great. Okay. He's back in it.

00:40:03.010 --> 00:40:10.449
Okay. Akio, though, has two grenades on his...

00:40:10.449 --> 00:40:12.849
You do have the thunder grenades. I don't want

00:40:12.849 --> 00:40:17.170
to call it person, but on his... On his poppin'

00:40:17.170 --> 00:40:21.429
dogson. His dogson. So, Akio used quicksheath.

00:40:21.510 --> 00:40:24.159
Oh, I have a person. And sheath his katana as

00:40:24.159 --> 00:40:26.480
a free action. That's right, yeah, or as a nothing

00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:30.760
action. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And throw one of these

00:40:30.760 --> 00:40:35.280
thunderball grenades. It says 60 -foot range.

00:40:35.340 --> 00:40:37.840
I don't even think he needs to move. Oh, yeah,

00:40:37.920 --> 00:40:39.400
just stand right beside Arhalon. He kind of gets

00:40:39.400 --> 00:40:41.360
off. He's grabbing this. He sees Ozen standing,

00:40:41.400 --> 00:40:43.340
and he just reaches back, grabs a grenade, and

00:40:43.340 --> 00:40:46.079
lunges it forward, his whole neck straining with

00:40:46.079 --> 00:40:49.099
his powerful thrust. That's going to be automatic.

00:40:49.300 --> 00:40:50.179
You can choose where you hit that. It's like

00:40:50.179 --> 00:40:51.519
casting a spell. So I'm going to hit the top

00:40:51.519 --> 00:40:54.760
of the wall. Oh, wow. Oh, really? And I'm alone,

00:40:55.000 --> 00:40:58.000
so you actually can get me. Yeah, it's basically

00:40:58.000 --> 00:40:59.519
the same as casting a spell. It's a save spell.

00:40:59.659 --> 00:41:01.840
I just got to save on that. Oh, right. Yes. Yeah,

00:41:01.940 --> 00:41:05.139
Thunderbolt. Thunderwave. Sorry. You did use

00:41:05.139 --> 00:41:06.559
one. You had two stars. This is actually your

00:41:06.559 --> 00:41:08.119
last one. When did I use the other one? You used

00:41:08.119 --> 00:41:13.440
it on Leone. Oh, yes. Like 20 fights ago. Okay,

00:41:13.579 --> 00:41:17.179
so it's second level Thunderwave. I don't have

00:41:17.179 --> 00:41:21.019
Thunderwave pulled up. Do you have the... 3d8.

00:41:21.159 --> 00:41:30.440
Okay. Just 12. Okay, I'm burning a Legendary

00:41:30.440 --> 00:41:35.039
Resistance. Of course you are. That's his reaction

00:41:35.039 --> 00:41:38.309
though, right? No, I can just do that. You can

00:41:38.309 --> 00:41:39.769
just do it for free. Big boss monsters can do

00:41:39.769 --> 00:41:41.730
that for free, but I lose one. Basically, it's

00:41:41.730 --> 00:41:43.929
when you fail a save, you can choose to just

00:41:43.929 --> 00:41:47.409
pass it if you learn one. But I did fail the

00:41:47.409 --> 00:41:50.750
save. Okay. Khan is good against me. And he's

00:41:50.750 --> 00:41:54.289
going to move, I guess, over here on the other

00:41:54.289 --> 00:41:58.489
side of the crab thing. I've slowly accrued so

00:41:58.489 --> 00:42:01.010
many tabs. I'm stressed about it. Okay, yeah,

00:42:01.050 --> 00:42:02.829
so you slide up beside the apparatus of the crab.

00:42:04.139 --> 00:42:07.199
Everyone kind of gathering together as Ozen stands

00:42:07.199 --> 00:42:11.900
above you all. Sapphire glowing. That's going

00:42:11.900 --> 00:42:16.920
to be Dresden. Okay. We're going to rinse and

00:42:16.920 --> 00:42:21.039
repeat. Manifest as Echo. Okay, yeah. It's bonus

00:42:21.039 --> 00:42:24.099
action. Echo appears. And he's going in for attacks.

00:42:24.380 --> 00:42:28.659
Same spot on the top of the wall. Yep. You are

00:42:28.659 --> 00:42:32.940
fascinating. Fuck, first one's an 18. Total or

00:42:32.940 --> 00:42:36.139
on the die? Total. Yeah. And no more bardic.

00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:43.400
Fuck. 21. Just barely. Just short. Ding, ding.

00:42:43.420 --> 00:42:45.780
Just barely parries. This is insane. You're so

00:42:45.780 --> 00:42:50.940
close. You're so close. Fuck. But Ozen is an

00:42:50.940 --> 00:42:55.840
insurmountable wall. A legendary luminary. Anything

00:42:55.840 --> 00:43:00.429
else this turn? Not his turn. This is good. You

00:43:00.429 --> 00:43:02.769
are invincible as you lie in that mech, right?

00:43:02.849 --> 00:43:04.389
Like, I'm dealing with your echo inside, but

00:43:04.389 --> 00:43:05.929
you're staying inside this thing. That's actually

00:43:05.929 --> 00:43:10.030
crazy. That's a problem. Okay. Yeah, that's it

00:43:10.030 --> 00:43:14.869
for Dresden. That's Arhalon. So Arhalon... Arhalon

00:43:14.869 --> 00:43:18.090
can fly to get within range, correct? Arhalon

00:43:18.090 --> 00:43:21.510
can fly. 30 feet, it should be able to get right

00:43:21.510 --> 00:43:25.309
in front. Ooh, it's really tight. He has a 30

00:43:25.309 --> 00:43:27.250
-foot fly speed? Yeah, he doesn't need to be

00:43:27.250 --> 00:43:29.250
right in front. He can come, like, next to Blanche.

00:43:29.869 --> 00:43:32.130
Okay, yeah. Not too close. Yeah, I don't want

00:43:32.130 --> 00:43:35.570
to get too close. No, no, no, fuck that. I'm

00:43:35.570 --> 00:43:38.590
talking, like, right here. Okay. Like, right

00:43:38.590 --> 00:43:41.489
there. Line up, right bishop side, Blanche. Yep.

00:43:41.550 --> 00:43:44.090
Kind of on the, you know, towards the ocean side,

00:43:44.210 --> 00:43:46.550
a little farther away from Rosen. The only thing

00:43:46.550 --> 00:43:50.389
he really can do from a distance here, which

00:43:50.389 --> 00:43:52.730
is a deck save, is going to be his breath weapon.

00:43:53.549 --> 00:43:55.869
Oh, right. And you can move it just to avoid

00:43:55.869 --> 00:43:59.090
the echo, too. Yep. Oh, that's pretty cool. Stand

00:43:59.090 --> 00:44:02.090
by one second, though. One quick second. Okay.

00:44:02.150 --> 00:44:04.769
Yep. Breath of the Wild. Let's go. So it's a

00:44:04.769 --> 00:44:09.909
deck save. Should I keep that? It didn't go through

00:44:09.909 --> 00:44:11.250
the tower. It fell off the tower. I'm going to

00:44:11.250 --> 00:44:16.030
try to keep it. 16. Yeah. That passes. Do you

00:44:16.030 --> 00:44:19.409
have damage? Huh? Do you have damage? No. It

00:44:19.409 --> 00:44:25.219
doesn't. Oh, really? Yeah. That's not what it

00:44:25.219 --> 00:44:28.480
says. That's not what it says. I may have just

00:44:28.480 --> 00:44:30.139
not done it right, because you have the Draconic

00:44:30.139 --> 00:44:35.760
half as much. Sorry. Okay. Yeah, I just didn't

00:44:35.760 --> 00:44:37.579
put it in the stat block. I'm very lazy sometimes.

00:44:38.420 --> 00:44:49.500
Sweet. Okay. I... Go ahead and roll. Five. It

00:44:49.500 --> 00:44:54.280
was 11 total. Okay. I should have given you a

00:44:54.280 --> 00:44:58.440
button earlier, I realized, for that cool little

00:44:58.440 --> 00:45:03.820
line as Arlon lay dying. I didn't. I just wanted

00:45:03.820 --> 00:45:08.820
to do this. Arlon lunges up, flying up just above

00:45:08.820 --> 00:45:12.360
Blanche, sort of building his own chest, sort

00:45:12.360 --> 00:45:13.820
of building his own throat, kind of building

00:45:13.820 --> 00:45:16.880
as he unleashes this burning flame that rushes

00:45:16.880 --> 00:45:21.619
out. And I want to add a little more fire to

00:45:21.619 --> 00:45:25.099
this. Nice. Ooh. As something else feels like

00:45:25.099 --> 00:45:28.460
it's with him in this moment, empowering him.

00:45:28.539 --> 00:45:33.059
Now, two more d6. That's what he's feeling. Or

00:45:33.059 --> 00:45:35.599
half dragon would have. Add two more d6 to that.

00:45:35.699 --> 00:45:38.300
Oh, cool. Fuck yeah. Yeah, add more d6 to that.

00:45:38.380 --> 00:45:40.519
It's extremely, it's a very powerful, very hot,

00:45:40.559 --> 00:45:44.320
boom, flame launching out. I rolled two goddamn

00:45:44.320 --> 00:45:47.639
ones. True Zebulon fashion. Classic. Fucking

00:45:47.639 --> 00:45:50.400
classic. Okay. Well, then that's Arlon. That's

00:45:50.400 --> 00:45:52.440
Arlon. Okay, he still stands strong, breathes

00:45:52.440 --> 00:45:56.139
his fire out, boom, blasts me. Oh, man. I love

00:45:56.139 --> 00:45:57.699
that fighting fire, fighting breath with breath.

00:45:58.139 --> 00:46:03.139
I do have my legendaries back. Sorry, I don't

00:46:03.139 --> 00:46:07.500
want to... It's really tough. So, just a heads

00:46:07.500 --> 00:46:10.800
up. I'm doing one of two things. It's either

00:46:10.800 --> 00:46:15.360
that or that. Yeah, I mean... He can get there.

00:46:16.019 --> 00:46:20.349
Yeah. I don't hate it. I don't either. I like

00:46:20.349 --> 00:46:23.530
it better than the other thing. Same. Same. But

00:46:23.530 --> 00:46:26.190
I don't like it. I don't either. I don't either.

00:46:26.750 --> 00:46:30.250
I'm going to use a legendary action. Yeah. Okay.

00:46:30.349 --> 00:46:32.650
Yeah. I'm going to do this. I have to do this.

00:46:33.309 --> 00:46:36.489
Arwan shoots me the fire and Ozen almost reactively

00:46:36.489 --> 00:46:41.409
turns a finger up. I'm going to cast lightning

00:46:41.409 --> 00:46:43.289
bolt again or fire bolt. Not lightning bolt the

00:46:43.289 --> 00:46:45.550
spell. Fire bolt the cantrip but lightning themed.

00:46:45.809 --> 00:46:48.400
Make this very clear. I'm going to cast that

00:46:48.400 --> 00:46:52.320
Arhalon. That move may have saved Blanche. I

00:46:52.320 --> 00:46:54.880
think I'm acting reactively now. I think I'm

00:46:54.880 --> 00:46:56.780
going to drop one person here, and the person

00:46:56.780 --> 00:47:03.119
who can fly, that one scares me. 20 to hit. Yeah,

00:47:03.139 --> 00:47:13.239
that hits. That's because I want 18 damage. Yep,

00:47:13.320 --> 00:47:17.510
Arhalon is down. Down. Again, I had to do it.

00:47:18.489 --> 00:47:22.110
Fire hits. Even a little bit of damage right

00:47:22.110 --> 00:47:23.789
now is a lot of damage. More damage than I want

00:47:23.789 --> 00:47:27.690
to take, so we just blast out with that. And

00:47:27.690 --> 00:47:29.750
that is going to be my legendary. That's going

00:47:29.750 --> 00:47:32.710
to be Blanche. And Blanche cannot move or take

00:47:32.710 --> 00:47:36.309
actions. And I'm going to take a legendary action.

00:47:36.869 --> 00:47:41.269
Oh my god. And I'm going to... Oh shit, I'm up

00:47:41.269 --> 00:47:43.530
20 feet, aren't I? Okay, well, I'll just do it.

00:47:44.320 --> 00:47:47.119
I'm going to use my movement. Without broken

00:47:47.119 --> 00:47:49.460
attack of opportunity, I'm going to jump down.

00:47:50.059 --> 00:47:52.920
I'm going to move around in front of the lying

00:47:52.920 --> 00:47:54.500
sort of corpse of Arhalon, who has just fallen

00:47:54.500 --> 00:47:57.199
next to and in front of Blanche. And I'm going

00:47:57.199 --> 00:47:59.719
to slap him toward that corpse. Before Blanche.

00:48:00.400 --> 00:48:04.780
Before the mech. All of you in a line. In my

00:48:04.780 --> 00:48:08.539
breath. Are you fucking kidding me? He's going

00:48:08.539 --> 00:48:10.480
to kill Blanche. But I can't make that move until

00:48:10.480 --> 00:48:13.590
my turn. That's all my legendaries burned and

00:48:13.590 --> 00:48:16.190
I will say this I didn't use my reaction trap

00:48:16.190 --> 00:48:21.750
right now I use it now I think I could absorb

00:48:21.750 --> 00:48:23.309
that damage, but I'm rather going to absorb he's

00:48:23.309 --> 00:48:30.170
set So so Jules has one move before it's awesome

00:48:30.170 --> 00:48:37.630
You could run you could run you have the rod

00:48:37.630 --> 00:48:42.300
you could pick up one you're so close I might

00:48:42.300 --> 00:48:46.719
kill you all. I gotta do it. Oh my god, what

00:48:46.719 --> 00:48:48.280
is going to happen? What is going on? I have

00:48:48.280 --> 00:48:53.500
no buttons. Or spin. It's either that or leave

00:48:53.500 --> 00:48:56.679
Blanche and Arhaan to die. The thing is the two

00:48:56.679 --> 00:49:02.119
hit. I don't think that you can hit without buttons

00:49:02.119 --> 00:49:06.079
or Bardic. And you can't even get flanking because

00:49:06.079 --> 00:49:11.730
Arhaan's down. Okay, so we just had a bit of

00:49:11.730 --> 00:49:17.130
a discussion off mic. This is the most dead serious

00:49:17.130 --> 00:49:22.210
room. This is like, we're like a jury on a death

00:49:22.210 --> 00:49:26.329
trial. I was dead set on doing something. And

00:49:26.329 --> 00:49:28.289
then we had a discussion and things changed around.

00:49:28.730 --> 00:49:33.750
So, David, if while I do this move, if you care

00:49:33.750 --> 00:49:36.829
to narrate exactly what the decision was that's

00:49:36.829 --> 00:49:38.849
happening. You were going to do something crazy,

00:49:38.889 --> 00:49:41.449
and instead you realized you were on the lot

00:49:41.449 --> 00:49:43.150
of flying. You were inside this thing. Do you

00:49:43.150 --> 00:49:46.489
have enough speed here to go out, pick up Blanche,

00:49:46.630 --> 00:49:51.059
go back in? the lot of flying looking at it or

00:49:51.059 --> 00:49:53.260
the boomer flying whatever uh uh it's not i i

00:49:53.260 --> 00:49:54.880
took this out to realize it's a two minute it's

00:49:54.880 --> 00:49:56.320
not two minutes so totally fine you can do this

00:49:56.320 --> 00:49:57.960
you just d command works to make it activate

00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:01.440
for you so jewels has full control and you can

00:50:01.440 --> 00:50:03.320
have some ability to move it on its own so i

00:50:03.320 --> 00:50:05.059
imagine you can just pick planche up by just

00:50:05.059 --> 00:50:07.000
flying beneath or moving it's all move action

00:50:07.000 --> 00:50:09.440
you have your bonus and your action still if

00:50:09.440 --> 00:50:12.579
you choose to do this okay so jewels will do

00:50:12.579 --> 00:50:15.420
that Okay. He will go and grab Blanche. You depart.

00:50:15.719 --> 00:50:18.860
The back... Oh, you just see this. Jules, you're

00:50:18.860 --> 00:50:20.460
in this moment. In the neck. You return your

00:50:20.460 --> 00:50:24.300
gauge. The eyes return. Oh, he lands. Something

00:50:24.300 --> 00:50:27.000
is appearing down low. You see his neck swell.

00:50:27.099 --> 00:50:29.159
You see the crackling breath. You see what's

00:50:29.159 --> 00:50:31.119
about to happen to Blanche, who stands stunned,

00:50:31.380 --> 00:50:35.000
bravely. You, boom, kick open the back. Fly out

00:50:35.000 --> 00:50:37.519
with your rod. What? What's happening? What's

00:50:37.519 --> 00:50:41.809
happening? Pause one more time. Okay, sorry.

00:50:41.849 --> 00:50:44.489
We're back for a second time. Okay. Freaking

00:50:44.489 --> 00:50:46.650
out. What's going on? So Jules will fly over

00:50:46.650 --> 00:50:48.650
to Blanche. Flying out. Boom. Kicks up. You're

00:50:48.650 --> 00:50:50.590
flying over. You grab Blanche. The rod just kind

00:50:50.590 --> 00:50:54.309
of slips in. What? What? Yes. Yeah. He gets Blanche

00:50:54.309 --> 00:50:57.329
on the broom. For a brief moment. He flies away.

00:50:57.610 --> 00:51:00.230
For a brief moment before he flies backward.

00:51:00.469 --> 00:51:04.750
What? He reaches out a hand to Arhalon. Oh? And

00:51:04.750 --> 00:51:07.659
casts. Cure wounds. You are next up. That makes

00:51:07.659 --> 00:51:10.920
sense. Arlon again, feeling that surge of healing

00:51:10.920 --> 00:51:14.099
within. Level two, and that's 2d8 plus four.

00:51:14.800 --> 00:51:17.659
Damn. I mean, play in that support. Arlon's like,

00:51:17.679 --> 00:51:19.940
up, down, up, down, up, down. Jewels in the room

00:51:19.940 --> 00:51:21.880
is the best thing that can happen in this fight.

00:51:21.980 --> 00:51:23.880
You're just floating around, supporting everyone,

00:51:24.219 --> 00:51:26.500
burning your spell slots too, or both burning

00:51:26.500 --> 00:51:28.840
our spell slots. For the love of God, roll fucking

00:51:28.840 --> 00:51:32.340
die. I mean, well, the thing is, is like, even

00:51:32.340 --> 00:51:34.500
if you roll max, that's going to be one hit.

00:51:34.809 --> 00:51:42.510
You know what I mean? Almost max. First roll

00:51:42.510 --> 00:51:46.170
was a six. Second roll was an eight. Okay. So

00:51:46.170 --> 00:51:49.809
that's 14 plus four. That is 18 for Arhalon.

00:51:49.989 --> 00:51:54.030
Arhalon is back up. And Jules, Blanche, and Dresden

00:51:54.030 --> 00:51:58.539
are back into the mech. Blanche barely standing,

00:51:58.800 --> 00:52:01.739
sliding into this mech. Just no space. It's all

00:52:01.739 --> 00:52:04.239
the space there is. It is now fully sort of crowded

00:52:04.239 --> 00:52:08.920
in here. But the back closes behind you. You

00:52:08.920 --> 00:52:12.840
three, for now, are protected. And Arlan and

00:52:12.840 --> 00:52:17.000
Akio stand alone outside. And that's your turn?

00:52:17.260 --> 00:52:19.340
Oh, yeah. He's just going to blast them. Yeah,

00:52:19.380 --> 00:52:21.599
but it's not going to... It won't kill them.

00:52:21.599 --> 00:52:23.119
It won't kill them. Yeah, so then we have to

00:52:23.119 --> 00:52:27.089
kill them. Yeah. That's what that is. Yeah. Yeah,

00:52:27.089 --> 00:52:31.570
that's kind of the move. Damn, dude. What's the

00:52:31.570 --> 00:52:35.269
Q at? 12. All right, start with a breath weapon.

00:52:36.010 --> 00:52:40.010
Oh, wait. No, you are within range. The mech

00:52:40.010 --> 00:52:41.230
is within range, the breath weapon. I'm going

00:52:41.230 --> 00:52:43.429
to breath open the mech. I'm going to try to

00:52:43.429 --> 00:52:45.030
do as much of this thing as I can. I'm going

00:52:45.030 --> 00:52:46.690
to get you guys inside, but I've got to blow

00:52:46.690 --> 00:52:50.090
this thing up so I can get to you. So let's go

00:52:50.090 --> 00:52:51.829
all out. And Arhalon is, of course, in the path.

00:52:51.869 --> 00:52:54.030
Arhalon stands, sort of weakly stands again.

00:52:55.309 --> 00:53:00.550
You can keep bringing me down. But I will protect

00:53:00.550 --> 00:53:05.010
my allies, my friends, with my last breath. Is

00:53:05.010 --> 00:53:08.469
Akio in the breath weapon range? No, he's not.

00:53:08.550 --> 00:53:10.789
It's 5 feet wide. Oh, it's 5 feet. Oh, okay.

00:53:10.929 --> 00:53:12.670
I thought it was a cone. It is a cone, actually.

00:53:13.210 --> 00:53:15.829
It's a 15 -foot cone. Oh, 15 -foot cone. Okay,

00:53:15.889 --> 00:53:18.369
great. Shit, Arhalon's is 5 foot by 30 feet.

00:53:18.789 --> 00:53:23.510
Because Arhalon's a mook. We just need some hits,

00:53:23.650 --> 00:53:39.059
dude. What the fuck? Fucking hell. I rolled so

00:53:39.059 --> 00:53:44.980
bad. So bad. That was only 20 points of damage.

00:53:45.320 --> 00:53:47.920
I mean, Arhalon's down. That was half of what

00:53:47.920 --> 00:53:55.340
I did last time. Fuck. Oh boy. This is stupid.

00:53:55.719 --> 00:54:00.420
This is stupid. Breath! Breath! Now breathe in.

00:54:00.820 --> 00:54:04.659
You shall feel mine! And Arhalon just kind of...

00:54:05.869 --> 00:54:08.789
It takes it to standing strong trying to hold

00:54:08.789 --> 00:54:11.869
on trying to protect you He has taken a lot of

00:54:11.869 --> 00:54:15.929
hits for you guys This also hits the actual thing.

00:54:16.010 --> 00:54:18.929
Actually. No. Yes. He's safe. Oh And he gets

00:54:18.929 --> 00:54:23.369
half. Oh All right content, right? Sorry. No,

00:54:23.369 --> 00:54:28.909
thanks. Thanks. Yeah. Yeah 19 Which I'm pretty

00:54:28.909 --> 00:54:30.570
sure that was the same one that he rolled the

00:54:30.570 --> 00:54:34.579
first time Wow Wasn't he rolled 18? Did he? Because

00:54:34.579 --> 00:54:38.699
a 19 passes. Oh! 19. Arhalon still stands. Wow.

00:54:38.940 --> 00:54:43.099
Half the damage. It's only 10. Arhalon fucking

00:54:43.099 --> 00:54:47.119
stands. Holy shit. You said 10? Yeah. Oh, my

00:54:47.119 --> 00:54:50.360
God. Holy shit. This is it. This is where it

00:54:50.360 --> 00:54:54.320
turns. I know, but... Oh, yeah. This is where

00:54:54.320 --> 00:54:56.239
it turns. Yeah, Arhalon will get to go. So as

00:54:56.239 --> 00:54:58.079
long as Arhalon can hit... That was my bonus

00:54:58.079 --> 00:55:01.380
action. But now I can't move on anybody else.

00:55:01.420 --> 00:55:04.380
I have to cut Arhalon down. Yeah. I have to.

00:55:05.099 --> 00:55:08.079
So, first attack is going to be the shocking

00:55:08.079 --> 00:55:10.699
grasp cantrip. Advantage on Arlon because he

00:55:10.699 --> 00:55:17.239
has mail. It's going to hit. With a what? With

00:55:17.239 --> 00:55:26.949
a lot. He's already down. He's just down. So

00:55:26.949 --> 00:55:29.650
he just stands on his nose and just kind of like

00:55:29.650 --> 00:55:31.849
seething, reaches out, grabs him with a sort

00:55:31.849 --> 00:55:34.010
of gauntleted hand and just blasts and fills

00:55:34.010 --> 00:55:36.170
him. Arlon screams again as electricity just

00:55:36.170 --> 00:55:40.610
fills his body. And he falls. And now I have

00:55:40.610 --> 00:55:44.710
a choice to make. I have a choice to make. Oh,

00:55:44.730 --> 00:55:46.610
you get to go again? I have one more attack.

00:55:47.269 --> 00:55:50.510
The mech is at 80. And I'm going to move past

00:55:50.510 --> 00:55:56.449
Arlon to Akio. You're sick. Little pup. Someone

00:55:56.449 --> 00:55:58.949
should put you down. I'm going to strike him.

00:55:59.409 --> 00:56:04.250
I have to. It's going to hit. Almost a crit.

00:56:04.309 --> 00:56:06.989
Not a crit, though. I don't like that I'm doing

00:56:06.989 --> 00:56:10.130
this. I was really hoping that I could get some

00:56:10.130 --> 00:56:13.190
attacks off with a Kyo to soak up those reactions.

00:56:13.570 --> 00:56:16.010
I can't let a Kyo go. This is not good for me.

00:56:16.610 --> 00:56:20.530
That is going to be 20 damage on a Kyo. Kyo is

00:56:20.530 --> 00:56:26.150
down. Fuck. Arlon and Akio both dropped. But

00:56:26.150 --> 00:56:28.829
if Arlon had not taken that first hit, that would

00:56:28.829 --> 00:56:31.590
have been two attacks on Akio. Yeah. So Akio

00:56:31.590 --> 00:56:33.289
would have, or one of them would be at two fails.

00:56:33.489 --> 00:56:36.190
Right now, neither of them are at any. And that's

00:56:36.190 --> 00:56:39.070
my turn. I mean, I guess the nice thing, if you

00:56:39.070 --> 00:56:43.090
can say that, you can pull two levers in the

00:56:43.090 --> 00:56:46.349
mech. Yep. You don't need to use any for movement.

00:56:47.050 --> 00:56:51.090
He's right in front of you. Oh, shit. Yep. That's

00:56:51.090 --> 00:56:53.250
right. I am in the forward space. I move to Akio

00:56:53.250 --> 00:56:55.110
to strike, which means I am right in front of

00:56:55.110 --> 00:57:00.190
the mech. Yep. Oh, man. This arcane weapon. But

00:57:00.190 --> 00:57:06.170
can this thing strike? It's Akio's turn to make

00:57:06.170 --> 00:57:14.969
a save. Okay. What is it? A natural one. There's

00:57:14.969 --> 00:57:21.530
one point left. Legendary action. No. I'll hold

00:57:21.530 --> 00:57:25.030
it. You stare, all three of you, that survived

00:57:25.030 --> 00:57:28.150
this fight, stare at the two eyes of his neck

00:57:28.150 --> 00:57:32.710
as Ozen raises his blade above the dying dog.

00:57:33.849 --> 00:57:38.150
Now, step out of there, or I shall start calling

00:57:38.150 --> 00:57:41.789
those my blade cannot reach. I want to hold my

00:57:41.789 --> 00:57:46.210
legendary action and see what you do. I feel

00:57:46.210 --> 00:57:49.130
like such a monster, I... I hate that I'm doing

00:57:49.130 --> 00:57:53.449
this. I hate this. Okay. I hate this, but I have

00:57:53.449 --> 00:57:55.769
to. So if we do anything other than step out,

00:57:55.869 --> 00:57:59.170
he's going to kill Akio. Not if he's grappled.

00:57:59.550 --> 00:58:02.789
I think it's a reaction, right? It's a legendary

00:58:02.789 --> 00:58:05.989
to use in action, basically, but can you... Right,

00:58:06.030 --> 00:58:07.250
so I just want to make sure that we're understanding

00:58:07.250 --> 00:58:11.329
this right. If we make any move other than get

00:58:11.329 --> 00:58:15.860
out, he's going to... react and slay Akio. Yeah,

00:58:15.880 --> 00:58:18.940
he stands before the mech's claws, both kind

00:58:18.940 --> 00:58:21.539
of down, proffered. He stands within range of

00:58:21.539 --> 00:58:24.719
this thing. This is a risk. You can try to attack.

00:58:25.280 --> 00:58:28.239
You got a crab mech. But if you miss, if you

00:58:28.239 --> 00:58:31.800
don't kill me now, I start killing them. Dresden

00:58:31.800 --> 00:58:35.360
could hold until after Blanche's turn. You could

00:58:35.360 --> 00:58:38.599
hold and push your turn back. Did you read entirely

00:58:38.599 --> 00:58:41.119
what this does? No. I'm too stressed to read.

00:58:41.340 --> 00:58:45.860
I'm so stressed out. The second that you go to

00:58:45.860 --> 00:58:48.760
make that move, he's going to trigger the reaction,

00:58:48.940 --> 00:58:51.940
and he's going to kill Akia. But that doesn't

00:58:51.940 --> 00:58:54.219
happen before that finishes. It will happen before

00:58:54.219 --> 00:58:57.639
yours. Right? Your reaction will happen before

00:58:57.639 --> 00:59:01.860
Jeremy's action. After. There we go. Legendaries

00:59:01.860 --> 00:59:03.179
can only happen at the end of a turn. There we

00:59:03.179 --> 00:59:07.679
go. Yeah, and that's a risk, but yeah. I mean,

00:59:07.699 --> 00:59:09.920
what else are we going to do? I misunderstood.

00:59:10.059 --> 00:59:11.760
I thought it was going to be a sure thing. Okay.

00:59:12.280 --> 00:59:14.960
Okay. So stressed out. Because I'm also going

00:59:14.960 --> 00:59:17.980
to get flanking. Right. Dresden will manifest

00:59:17.980 --> 00:59:22.460
his echo behind Ozen. So we now have flanking.

00:59:22.739 --> 00:59:26.539
Oh, I see. Oh, with the mech. Oh, shit. It appears

00:59:26.539 --> 00:59:28.679
just at the base of the tower, back against the

00:59:28.679 --> 00:59:31.639
wall. Ozen. But I can't make my move yet because

00:59:31.639 --> 00:59:33.559
it's at the end of your turn. So that is a bonus

00:59:33.559 --> 00:59:37.760
action. For his first action in the mech, he

00:59:37.760 --> 00:59:41.460
will pull lever number four, which is... Two

00:59:41.460 --> 00:59:43.699
claws extend from the front sides of the apparatus.

00:59:44.199 --> 00:59:45.980
They're already extended. The claws were... They're

00:59:45.980 --> 00:59:47.179
already extended? I believe they're already in

00:59:47.179 --> 00:59:50.340
attack form. Unless they were unextended, which

00:59:50.340 --> 00:59:52.099
they weren't. This thing was in attack form when

00:59:52.099 --> 00:59:53.380
it was moving the bodies around. Does that mean

00:59:53.380 --> 00:59:55.619
I can do that four times? I don't know. What?

00:59:55.800 --> 01:00:00.840
Pause. What? All right, folks, we're back for,

01:00:00.860 --> 01:00:02.920
I think, like, the third time this episode. Oh,

01:00:02.920 --> 01:00:04.599
my God. Oh, my God. Okay, so the two claws are

01:00:04.599 --> 01:00:07.300
extended. Yes, they are. I think they wouldn't

01:00:07.300 --> 01:00:09.260
not be. It was being used earlier to move bodies

01:00:09.260 --> 01:00:11.820
around. Why would they not be? Which means I

01:00:11.820 --> 01:00:15.840
have two pulls of levers. I should have read

01:00:15.840 --> 01:00:18.480
that sheet. Which I was going to use only one

01:00:18.480 --> 01:00:20.219
of them if one of them was taken up to extend

01:00:20.219 --> 01:00:23.340
the claw. But now I can do this. Each extended

01:00:23.340 --> 01:00:26.019
claw. So this is with one lever pulled down.

01:00:26.760 --> 01:00:30.639
Each extended claw. There's two of them. Makes

01:00:30.639 --> 01:00:34.929
a melee weapon attack. Plus eight to hit. I also

01:00:34.929 --> 01:00:37.889
have flanking. Oh, my God. Plus 10 to hit. So

01:00:37.889 --> 01:00:40.929
that's two. That's two. One for each one with

01:00:40.929 --> 01:00:43.829
one lever pull, which means with the second lever

01:00:43.829 --> 01:00:48.469
pull, that adds two more. So that is four. Four

01:00:48.469 --> 01:00:51.030
attacks. All with flanking. Plus 10 to hit. It

01:00:51.030 --> 01:00:54.429
is plus 10? Yeah, so you still need to roll 12

01:00:54.429 --> 01:00:56.170
or higher. Oh, yeah, with flanking. Yes, it's

01:00:56.170 --> 01:00:59.510
still plus 10 to hit, but on any one of those,

01:00:59.590 --> 01:01:03.500
if those succeed, the target is grappled. Does

01:01:03.500 --> 01:01:05.579
it say it's restrained or just grappled? Grappled.

01:01:05.679 --> 01:01:08.639
So it means I can't move, but I can still kill

01:01:08.639 --> 01:01:11.760
a Kiyo. Okay. You need to finish me off if you

01:01:11.760 --> 01:01:15.039
want to save that dog. Blade is proffered. I

01:01:15.039 --> 01:01:16.739
said my piece. You know what I'm going to do.

01:01:16.840 --> 01:01:18.900
You have one last chance or you need to step

01:01:18.900 --> 01:01:22.820
outside. So what is the... 12 or higher. Yeah,

01:01:23.059 --> 01:01:25.539
what is the damage for the melee attack on these?

01:01:25.599 --> 01:01:27.579
Oh, right here. There it is. My breath weapon.

01:01:27.659 --> 01:01:31.940
Melee weapon. Okay, yeah. Damage is 2d6 for each

01:01:31.940 --> 01:01:35.199
one. Okay. If they hit. Can you do it? Gotta

01:01:35.199 --> 01:01:39.079
hit. Can you do it? Number one. Holy shit. Buttons

01:01:39.079 --> 01:01:41.099
are gone. Everything is gone. This is your last

01:01:41.099 --> 01:01:43.480
chance to save. You've already lost one ally.

01:01:43.800 --> 01:01:46.840
So, if I end up grappling him on the first one,

01:01:46.900 --> 01:01:48.800
what does that mean for the rest of the damage?

01:01:49.659 --> 01:01:51.659
Attacks on him if he's grappled. Does that change

01:01:51.659 --> 01:01:54.840
it? Uh, it does not. It does not. Okay. Okay.

01:01:55.019 --> 01:01:57.179
It just means I cannot move. Okay. But I can

01:01:57.179 --> 01:01:59.639
still... No, I can't do it. Yeah. I can't move.

01:01:59.679 --> 01:02:05.050
Yeah. Yeah. Number one. Okay 14 on the die. Okay,

01:02:05.150 --> 01:02:08.110
so that's 24. That will hit that's one hit. Okay

01:02:08.110 --> 01:02:13.710
number two 13 on the die. Oh, wow, it's 23. Two

01:02:13.710 --> 01:02:19.210
hits. Holy shit 14 on the die again. Whoa. Oh

01:02:19.210 --> 01:02:20.909
my goodness. That's three fucking hits. Oh man,

01:02:21.150 --> 01:02:24.550
I don't know what his HP's at, but And last one

01:02:24.550 --> 01:02:27.179
was full on the die. Okay, I seriously Gave the

01:02:27.179 --> 01:02:28.679
middle finger to Karma right there when I was

01:02:28.679 --> 01:02:31.380
like, I'll kill this puppy. You walked right

01:02:31.380 --> 01:02:34.119
in front of the mech. I did. I did. I went, I

01:02:34.119 --> 01:02:36.039
mean, there's just seething hatred plastered

01:02:36.039 --> 01:02:37.880
on these features. The helmet's gone. And I think

01:02:37.880 --> 01:02:40.519
that clouded the perfect judgment of the Storm

01:02:40.519 --> 01:02:43.019
Eyes. He went in to try to drive you guys out

01:02:43.019 --> 01:02:44.320
to get you with that breath weapon. Next turn,

01:02:44.400 --> 01:02:46.119
he wanted you all to step out so he could kill

01:02:46.119 --> 01:02:52.460
you. Each hit is 2d6. So I'm about to roll 6d6

01:02:52.460 --> 01:02:55.940
for damage. Is that enough to kill those, do

01:02:55.940 --> 01:02:59.320
you think? I don't know. I don't know. The way

01:02:59.320 --> 01:03:01.340
he's been talking, it feels like it is, but I

01:03:01.340 --> 01:03:03.719
can't tell if I need to roll really high on every

01:03:03.719 --> 01:03:06.559
single one. Still ringing. The echo appears.

01:03:06.800 --> 01:03:09.940
Ozen kind of turns, sees it. Blade rises up.

01:03:12.460 --> 01:03:16.420
And the crab's claws start jutting out these

01:03:16.420 --> 01:03:19.159
quick movements. He turns back, heads were whipping

01:03:19.159 --> 01:03:22.039
around, realizing the mistake he made and his

01:03:22.039 --> 01:03:25.599
haste and his hate as these claws begin to rip

01:03:25.599 --> 01:03:29.719
in. But how much damage can you do? Not the greatest,

01:03:29.719 --> 01:03:35.400
not the worst. 20. What's it look like when you

01:03:35.400 --> 01:03:42.610
kill the storm eye? Holy shit. We have a bottle

01:03:42.610 --> 01:03:44.949
of ketchup for this later. This is going to get

01:03:44.949 --> 01:03:47.530
nasty. This is going to get nasty. Go ahead.

01:03:47.730 --> 01:03:49.849
Just remember there's no blood. Bloodless corpse.

01:03:50.090 --> 01:03:52.750
That's fine. Okay. Is there an actual sapphire

01:03:52.750 --> 01:03:56.349
in the eye? Yes. Okay. It is unbreakable, I should

01:03:56.349 --> 01:03:59.550
say. Dresden. That's fine. Okay. Dresden's face

01:03:59.550 --> 01:04:03.389
is nothing but rage inside this mech. And you

01:04:03.389 --> 01:04:07.289
see him. There's a close -up on his face. And

01:04:07.289 --> 01:04:12.030
you just see his arms angrily. moving these levers

01:04:12.030 --> 01:04:18.090
up and down. He grabs the body and starts pummeling

01:04:18.090 --> 01:04:23.170
his face. And just as he's almost completely

01:04:23.170 --> 01:04:28.030
dead, he takes one of the claws, reaches, smashes

01:04:28.030 --> 01:04:32.070
into the skull, and rips out the sapphire and

01:04:32.070 --> 01:04:35.309
throws it to the floor and then takes the body

01:04:35.309 --> 01:04:41.099
and just pulls it in half and throws it. The

01:04:41.099 --> 01:04:45.179
body torn to pieces, much like the sapphire wyvern

01:04:45.179 --> 01:04:48.559
had been when it was discovered all that time

01:04:48.559 --> 01:04:51.880
ago. Sapphire, ping, ting, ting, ting, ting,

01:04:51.880 --> 01:04:56.840
ting, rolls, stops, as all of you watch on, looking

01:04:56.840 --> 01:04:59.380
at the carnage, looking at the dying Akio, the

01:04:59.380 --> 01:05:03.380
dying Arhalon, looking at the sapphire. You see

01:05:03.380 --> 01:05:10.619
it with perhaps a very familiar sounding Sort

01:05:10.619 --> 01:05:19.260
of hum. Vanishes. And we'll call it there.
