1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:20,840 All right, Nix here. Welcome back to D&D Doodoo. Do you remember all those episodes 2 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:27,240 ago, back when we first met Tagk? He was on the other side back then, working as a hired 3 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:33,160 hand for the Gleb. He didn't seem to be enjoying it much, but he was trying to earn enough 4 00:00:33,160 --> 00:00:39,240 money to get some wings. Not sure how that works. I remember him saying something about 5 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:46,880 a dragon. Maybe I'll ask him. Anyway, you join us now at Sorlie's base. Me and the 6 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:51,640 small human child have just been to feed the chickens, and now we're off to check the 7 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:58,840 crops. That's the thing with a bushcraft base. There's always something to D&D Doodoo 8 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:23,120 Laters. 9 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:31,880 Hello. Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to make you jump. Join me to help you step up. It's okay. 10 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:36,760 He says he starts scrabbling to get his coins together. If you want to make a perception 11 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:44,680 roll. So, we've got some new dice here for this roll. It's a blind bag from a shop in 12 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:53,240 the city of Lancaster. What's it called? Tabletop Gaming. Shout out to you boyos. Tabletop 13 00:01:53,240 --> 00:02:04,080 Republic. Tabletop Republic. Okay. Eight. How about next? What's this, a Scaly boy up 14 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:15,760 to 13. Oh, very good. So, next, you notice that most of the gold coins have the same 15 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:22,040 marking on it. It's called Gleb Scratch. So, these are the nice bit of gold that you've 16 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:30,320 got while we first met Tagk. Oh, yeah. That's right. They're all mine. I did earn them all. 17 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:36,640 Oh, yeah. Fair enough. Yeah, well done. Where's, uh, how much you got in this stash of your 18 00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:44,960 then? Oh, well, actually, it's, um, I've got 38 gold coins. Nice. The problem is though, 19 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:50,840 I mean, it's way too much to be carrying around really. It's bad luck having this much cash 20 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:57,680 on you. Well, then you can go and put them in my house. Well, I could do, but I mean, 21 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:02,640 I like to keep them really close. So, I've got this, this lovely little bag that I keep 22 00:03:02,640 --> 00:03:10,600 them in. Um, but I'd really like to get them back with the rest of my stash. Right. Uh, 23 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:18,040 where is this stash? Oh, we're talking like a mountain here. I'd like to see that. When 24 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:24,600 you say that Tagk's a face, well, his jaw drops and his eyes look really startled when 25 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:31,440 you say that. Um, you almost like, it's almost a flicker of indignation across his face. 26 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:37,560 Um, but then he softens and he, and he smiles and he says, Nix, just, just so you know, 27 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:45,400 it's considered very impolite to ask where a Kobold's stash is. Oh, Tagk, I am sorry. Yes. 28 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:51,600 I'm there. You know, us goblins we're just like, you know, we're an open book. Yeah. 29 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,800 I can imagine. Yes. And it's, it's, no, it's absolutely fine. It just caught me off guard. 30 00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:01,640 Uh, yes. And to be honest, I've been thinking lately that I need to get these back to my 31 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:10,360 stash. I've been putting it off. I mean, Tagk sort of draws himself up. Generally, unless 32 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:16,240 you know someone really well, you, you don't let them find out where your stash is. But 33 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:22,920 you know, to be honest, back when I first came here, I considered running off that first 34 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:29,840 night. I wasn't sure, but the campfire was warm and, and that stew was good. Do you remember 35 00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:36,560 the stew? Oh, do I ever? Delicious. And you guys weren't picking on me and I thought this 36 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:44,960 is actually really nice and, and what you want to help you get into this stash of yours. 37 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:51,520 Because you know, we're all right together. We're doing well. I think, uh, yeah, we support 38 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:59,040 each other. Yeah. I'm completely free. Like literally, I don't really need to do this 39 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:06,520 harvest because my pantry is pretty full. So that would be amazing. So absolutely. That's 40 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:13,840 what I've got to pack. All right. Well, yeah. Shall we get on with that small human child? 41 00:05:13,840 --> 00:05:19,640 As you're talking, there's a Russell in the bushes, not a person called Russell. 42 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:31,200 Like Russell. Hi Russell. Where are you? I've not seen you for a while Russell. Hello. 43 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:40,080 I love your voice Russell. So distinct. Oh, like me. And there's a Russell in the bushes. 44 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:52,640 Right. Okay. There, there are there is sounds of leaves rummaging around in the bush. That's 45 00:05:52,640 --> 00:06:03,920 what I mean. That's what I mean. And with it, another, another is a bird with a large beak 46 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:11,040 that's rather like a shoe bill. It's a bluey gray color and it's got this large hooked beak. 47 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:17,440 And it's very good at scooping things up. Very strong. So it's an angry giant chicken. 48 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:25,520 It is right. Yes. And this one, it's more a ground cover bird, but it can glide like 49 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:33,760 it like a stalk, but it likes to live on the woodland floor. But you know, Sorlie, that Nabbers 50 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:43,120 absolutely love collecting things, shiny things or colorful things. Okay. So, so is he coming for 51 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:50,960 the gold coins? He goes straight for the gold coins. I yell Nabber! And then I go and jump, 52 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:57,920 jump in and try and catch it. Well, if you roll, he's got, he's got the edge on you because he, 53 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,040 apart from Russell, giving you a heads up. 54 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:11,280 He's like, he's surprised. Like, like, shh. Yeah. So he's, he's, and so he's got, what do you think, 55 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:19,200 what do the color he's got? Surprise. Surprise. Yes. So if you roll a D6, 56 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:28,720 that's it. Yeah. So this is for the number of gold coins that the nabber manages to scoop up in its 57 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:40,400 beak. Oh gosh. Okay. So that's a four. Four gold coins. Leave, stop, leave. So it's Tagk. And the 58 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:47,520 nabbers like his big feet are flapping. I'm gonna go. Chase it, chase it, chase it, chase it. So roll 59 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:57,120 for initiative. Initiative. Okay. D20. 20. Seriously, nat 20. You are off to a run mate. 60 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:07,520 I am seven. You lazy old. I'm too busy laughing. Yeah. I love that nabber. He's just like ate 61 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:18,880 the coins. I want one. I'm gonna roll for the nabber. 12. 12, not bad. And would someone like to 62 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:26,640 roll for Tagk? Or write that down? They're all Tagk. Yeah. One. He just falls. Seriously. He just falls 63 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:32,640 on like, and that one was that. Yeah, that one. So I just like it after it. I just absolutely. Yes, 64 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:38,960 Sorlie. You're straight. You're first out the game. So what are you gonna do? I'm just, I'm just 65 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:46,400 gonna run after him and go and catch him. Okay. You have catch him not killing because no, don't 66 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:54,160 do that. And and and between the crops and the main part of it where all the things are, there's a big 67 00:08:54,160 --> 00:09:01,600 like, like woodland area. And when it's like wood, so it's kind of like, like a wood area that we're 68 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:06,640 running through. Okay. Well, yes, he's in, he's in the undergrowth at the moment. It's giving him a 69 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:15,920 lot of cover. So while he's in the undergrowth, he has advantage. Okay, but we can roll 11. Okay, 70 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:28,880 so I can roll all around. Right. So you, you make a swipe for him with your arms, but you, 71 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:34,480 you miss him. I think you maybe you just kind of graze his tail. It goes. 72 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:41,760 Can I still running? Yeah. Well, yes, you're still running. So that was your turn. Next, 73 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:52,080 it's the nabba. The nabba is trying to head into the cover of a thicket. Oh, yeah. I don't know 74 00:09:52,080 --> 00:10:00,320 what thickets are. They're like really thick bushes. Really dense shrubbery. Yes. So I think if he gets 75 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:08,160 an even number, it gives him some cover. Or if it's an odd number, then he gets himself, 76 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:16,560 impedes his progress. 12. So it helps. He's in a bit of cover. Right. So is that and he sits in there. 77 00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:26,320 No. I think he thinks that took his safe there. Right, next. Right. I'm going to try something. 78 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:32,720 Right. Okay. I'm going to stroll forward. Right. You know, just with a bit of swagger, 79 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:39,120 just a little bit. I don't want to have to do it. And I want to just wink at the nabba. Go. 80 00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:48,400 All right. Giant evil chicken. You're lucky and fresh. I like your beak. Your plumage is beautiful. 81 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:59,360 And I want to use charm person. Oh, nice. Okay. I've just seen that it is person. So I think roll 82 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:13,200 and see if you can get over 10. Right. You cheeky. I like your gold stealing style. 83 00:11:15,680 --> 00:11:24,000 Or 17. There you go. Even though the nabba isn't human or humanoid creature, 84 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:35,680 its wisdom is rather low. So it just manages to sort of coax it a little bit. And it starts to 85 00:11:35,680 --> 00:11:42,960 take a few tentative steps forward. And it sticks its head out of the thicket and just looks at you, 86 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:51,200 cocks its head and looks at you. So you mean it's sticked his head out? Yeah. As in my action, 87 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:57,840 could I just like it? Have a rummage around in my pocket for something shiny, either a coin? 88 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:03,600 Yes. Or another piece of gold? Yes. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, 89 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:07,520 because then it will take that and not give you any other one. Oh, it's all right. I'll keep hold 90 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:12,960 of it. I'll just tempt him out. Like a little biscuit for like a cat or something. So it starts 91 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:18,880 making this, this kind of like a piece of cheese which I go to spike. Exactly. Like literally, 92 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:28,960 I attached a bit of cheese to my shoe and the cats actually fall over. I'm not kidding. In genius. 93 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:38,400 It actually, why? Why are you using a, just, why are you using a box of warmies? Just attach 94 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:48,800 cheese to your shoe. Just like cheese. Were you wearing your shoes? Cheesy shoes. Yeah. That's genius. 95 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:55,920 Cheesiest. So by charming person, the nabba has come towards the edge of the ticket and is watching 96 00:12:55,920 --> 00:13:01,520 you and when it sees you take out this gold coin, I'll take it you like maybe holding, 97 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:07,760 holding it out. Yeah, yeah. Try and entice the nabba. Yeah. Come out a bit further. 98 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:14,160 It starts making this soft warbling sound in its throat and does that sort of, 99 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:19,680 that uncertain thing that, that birds do when they're, they're trying to approach but they're 100 00:13:19,680 --> 00:13:29,200 not quite sure and they start kind of approaching and circling around. Okay. So I, we ain't gonna hurt you. 101 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:37,280 It's got, you can see the edges of the four gold coins sort of sticking out. The chargers 102 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:42,800 with its beak and it's holding them very tight and you can almost sense that it's trying to figure 103 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:50,240 out how it's going to pick up this coin and not lose the ones it's already got. Like a golden retrieval 104 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:58,720 with too many balls in its mouth. Just like that. Just like that. Or a dragon with juvenile members 105 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:07,040 of royalty in its mouth. Right, it's tack. He got a nap one. That means he was at the end of the 106 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:14,560 initiative. So we come to, come to tack now. He's just seen this strange bird flying, scoop up his 107 00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:21,040 coins. He's screamed in disbelief and horror that several of his coins have been stolen. 108 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:27,760 His spring to his feet, he grabs for his dagger in its sheath and it gets a little bit stuck in 109 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:32,800 the scabbard and manages to get it free. But he's been bending over to try and figure out why is it 110 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:39,360 stuck in the scabbard. So he brings out his arm and it goes bang, right into his, his snout. 111 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:48,640 We're back to the top of the initiative order. So it's sorely. What would you like to do now? 112 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:56,800 So I sneak up behind the bush. He's out of the bush at the moment. It's just, 113 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:03,120 he's just, he's looking at the gold coin that Nyx is holding up to. And then while I then, 114 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:12,080 the bush, I just come around and I doze in the nabbing and he's looking at Nyx. But I'm behind 115 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:21,120 him on the nabba and then I go, I got it. Right, he's gonna grab for it. Yeah, grab. Okay. So 116 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:27,920 because the nabba is, I think this one's going to be a hen nabba. So she's going to be 117 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:35,360 transfixed and concentrating on the gold coin, which means you can roll with advantage. So you 118 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:41,200 take the better, the better roll of two. Oh yeah. Okay, I'm going to roll. Do you try two? Okay. 119 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:48,720 Eight. But it hit this black dice, which stopped it. Do I get ready to go on hit? No. 120 00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,920 You can roll it again because you've got advantage. Yeah, but you do get another roll. 121 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:58,320 And pick the high. Eighteen. Eighteen. Eighteen, I am. You're stealth. 122 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:08,400 Sorlie, you tip toe forward and you bend down carefully and you pick your moment and you leap 123 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:15,120 and grab the nabba around its wings so that it can't flap. And it's, 124 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:24,160 it starts squawking, it starts kicking. I'm going to roll to see if it's... 125 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:28,160 Small human child. You have nabbed a nabba. 126 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:34,720 You have nabbed a nabba. No, it does not manage to keep hold of the gold coins. 127 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:42,160 The gold coins are flung from its beak. Well done. So that was your movement and your action. So 128 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:49,440 it's the nabba. Okay. So the nabba is going to try and get free. So you have to roll against each other. 129 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,840 What? Roll against each other. Okay. 130 00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:58,960 One, two, three. 131 00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:10,640 Not much in it though. So I think what happened is she manages to get her wings free and she's 132 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:17,840 flapping and the wings are flapping in your face. You've got a mouth full of feathers, 133 00:17:17,840 --> 00:17:23,280 but I managed to get maybe get one foot free and you've got this foot kind of kicking in your chest, 134 00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:29,280 but you've got one foot left when you're holding on to that last nabba leg and she's trying to get 135 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:36,400 free. Okay, mix. Right. So as this nabba, like it's got no gold left. No gold left. It's giving 136 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:42,480 the owl up. Yeah. With a bit of help from a small human child. It's gone flying from well done. 137 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:48,960 And as actually as it's flaking, as it's flaking, it's trying to get the nearest gold coin. All right. 138 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:55,440 Oh, take it. Take it. Take it. Yeah. Go on. We get this gold out of the way, then it can just like 139 00:17:56,080 --> 00:18:01,120 get out of here. It can or a nabba do what? 140 00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:08,320 To be honest, that's kind of what the nabba wants to do. If you grab some coins, 141 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:16,800 unless we want to eat the nabba, nice bit of juicy nabba. What do you reckon? I think I'm just 142 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:23,840 gonna, I'm gonna scoop all these coins away. I mean, I don't mind. I'd give it to the nabba. It's 143 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:31,760 great. But I think it's, you know, Tagk's and this money, you know, out of hard labor. Yeah. That's 144 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:38,480 Tagk's business. You know, I'm just gonna, I'm gonna support him like, you know, a friend. Like we 145 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:44,400 should do. Yeah. That's only appropriate. So I'm gonna scoop this gold out of the way of the nabba 146 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:52,560 and just like give the nabba a bit of a up into the woods. I think. Give me a yeet. Okay. 147 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:55,440 Then how hard did you 148 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:10,400 How hard? 13. That's a very good swing and oof. You do, you send it. How far does it go? 149 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:17,120 It clears the thicket and you just hear sort of in the distance. And the sound of 150 00:19:17,120 --> 00:19:26,960 Russell. All right, Russell. Through the undergrowth and the sound of it, 151 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:33,600 gradually falls to silence. Get out of here. Yeah. I say silence, but tax, then he's like, 152 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:42,320 he sniffs, he's got a little droplet of blood, he's made his nose bleed. 153 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:50,000 Have you got my gold? I'll stick my sleeve under his nose. Oh, you missed all the action. You 154 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:55,440 should have seen the small human child stealthing up behind that big chicken. 155 00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:01,120 That was amazing. That was amazing. Thank you so much. You would have run off. Have you got them? 156 00:20:01,120 --> 00:20:06,880 Oh, yeah, it's just standing here. I'll pick them up for you. And he got us all the coins. 157 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:13,680 Thank you so much. Oh, gosh, goodness me. What was that? Something called a nabba. And it's just 158 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:20,320 the most annoying thing. He's no habit or we just steal stuff. It is shiny. Well, I can sort of relate 159 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:28,560 to him, you know, we do like to do that. It's very same thing. Usually not just sort of shiny stuff, 160 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:35,840 but useful stuff. Yeah. Cocks and wheels and string and whatever will come and use for a bit 161 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:42,880 of time. It's just really interesting, actually, that Nix says, says, says, Tagk. So I remember, 162 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:48,080 you know, back when we first met, do you remember what we first met? Oh, yeah. Yeah. I was, I was 163 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:53,920 getting my gold. It was hard drawing. I was getting my gold out the back of the wagon at the Glebs 164 00:20:53,920 --> 00:21:00,640 camp and you came over and started giving me a moral lecture about how I earned my gold. 165 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:05,920 If I remember rightly, and I thought, oh my God, we've got a right one here. And he looks at you 166 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:12,320 and he goes, I'm only joking. I'm only joking. So yes, well, well done. So you have, have you all 167 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:20,000 agreed that you're going to go and help Tagk take his collection to? Yes, you're going to head off 168 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:24,960 and you're going to go find that we can help. I smell adventure. Come on, Tagk, let's get you to 169 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:33,280 this secretive stash of yours. That's all we have time for this week. We've got to get packed. 170 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:41,440 That pesky nabba better behave itself while we're away. If I could find its nest, I'd probably 171 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:50,080 also find several shining things. She's next from my toolbox already. Anyway, join us next time when 172 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:56,080 we start to find Tagk's stash.
