Hello players who have the entire wardrobe of their D&D character.

9
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:45,000
And DMs who are so lost in the plot that they have no idea when the timeline started.

10
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Welcome back to Table Talk. I'm Maddie.

11
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,000
And I'm Robert.

12
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,000
What are we talking about today, Robert?

13
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,000
Several, several, several, several, several.

14
00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:02,000
I think technically like seasons ago, season ago, we talked about, I don't know when happened, when it happened.

15
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,000
Again, this is a perfect example.

16
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,000
We talked about Capes and Crooks, specifically the campaign that we're playing right now.

17
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,000
That's mine, dog.

18
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,000
Oh, I'm trying to, sorry.

19
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,000
Sorry, continue.

20
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,000
You were love as shit.

21
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,000
Madison doesn't usually mix the stuff.

22
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,000
No.

23
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,000
So she's learning how to do that now.

24
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,000
This is our agreement.

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,000
You do editing and mixing and I do everything else.

26
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,000
Not like everything else.

27
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Just like a lot else.

28
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,000
Social media, graphics.

29
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,000
Yeah, just like a lot else.

30
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,000
Marketing.

31
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:36,000
Yeah.

32
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,000
Research.

33
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,000
Well, that's the job part of it.

34
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,000
Outreach.

35
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,000
And I have a job, so.

36
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,000
I want this to be my job.

37
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,000
Please.

38
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,000
I would love if it could be.

39
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,000
Please listen.

40
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,000
By the way, we have a Patreon.

41
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,000
We have a Patreon.

42
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,000
We have a Patreon.

43
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,000
We post a lot of behind the scenes stuff.

44
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,000
Season two, session eight.

45
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,000
We have a Patreon.

46
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,000
Yeah, way late.

47
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,000
But we post a lot of behind the scenes stuff.

48
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Information for DMs, players, custom character sheets, graphics, all that fun stuff.

49
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Please, please, please check it out.

50
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,000
It's free.

51
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,000
Eventually we'll probably have like,

52
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,000
but we're not there yet.

53
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,000
Please check it out.

54
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,000
We only have two members, and that's myself and then one of our friends.

55
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Hell yeah.

56
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,000
So.

57
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,000
It's the only way to do it though, right?

58
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,000
A personal thank you message to whoever,

59
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,000
whoever joins, please.

60
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,000
Personal thank you message to literally anybody who wants to join.

61
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,000
I'll send you our address.

62
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,000
You will not.

63
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,000
Respectfully, no, she will not.

64
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,000
I will move.

65
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,000
I refuse to have my.

66
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,000
I'm not doxxing us.

67
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,000
I'm not putting my shed on the internet like that.

68
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,000
Anyways, today we're talking about our current campaign.

69
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,000
The Sapphire Prodigies.

70
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,000
I've mentioned it a handful of times before.

71
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,000
We did a brief episode about biggest fuck ups.

72
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,000
We've ever seen happen at the table.

73
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:02,000
And my number one is literally in this campaign.

74
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:09,000
It is the reason why it has taken twice as long to reach the natural conclusion that should have been the end of chapter one.

75
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:17,000
We were doing a little fancy camp thing the other day together and somebody was giving a PowerPoint presentation on storytelling.

76
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:25,000
And it was like, what was it like the traditional hero's journey where it's like, you know, like they need a reason to go adventuring and then they make friends and then they get a mentor.

77
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:33,000
And then about halfway through, there's what's called like, like a rebirth or a reset or something like that.

78
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,000
It's basically like a dramatic change.

79
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,000
Something.

80
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,000
Yep. And then they go on and they finish the story about another halfway through, right?

81
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:52,000
I realized the reason why it's taken us a fucking long to reach the natural conclusion of chapter one is because we got about halfway through and then hard reset back basically to step two.

82
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,000
Yeah. And then I feel like we've done that again.

83
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:01,000
We've done it several times because a lot of our characters have gone through soft and hard reboots.

84
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:02,000
Oh, yeah.

85
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,000
People trying to figure out who their characters were.

86
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:15,000
Anyways, today's basically talking about that campaign because eventually we're going to do a one shot in a couple of sessions after this one set in that world.

87
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:23,000
So just to kind of give you all a little bit of background also just to kind of talk about our campaign currently, which we've done a couple of different times, but in a more formal way.

88
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,000
And the characters that you might see.

89
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:40,000
And the characters you might see and also trying to figure out a timeline because having it be cut in the middle and then reset back to not a super specific point means that mapping this motherfucker out is impossible.

90
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,000
It is the amount of set at which this is not for the for people who don't play D&D who listen to our podcast.

91
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,000
This is not a common thing to do.

92
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,000
I don't think.

93
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,000
No, I don't think a lot of people reset their whole campaigns.

94
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:59,000
Yeah, I think that we as as people and as players got ourselves to a point where we were like, this is not the world that we wanted to play in.

95
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,000
This is not the world we want.

96
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,000
Like we got it.

97
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,000
We got to take a lap and we did.

98
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,000
But it has led to a lot of.

99
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Yeah, we did.

100
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:18,000
We're like after a session being like, wait, I just realized that like something that happened, like that we completely forgot about that completely makes everything that just happened today irrelevant.

101
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,000
Like, yep, I accidentally like I already did that character.

102
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:29,000
Yeah, this person was doing this thing and the whole session was about someone discovering that that person was doing that thing or something like that.

103
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:39,000
So it's this is really a puzzle episode where that it is a recap because this is figuring out in real time that is what Robert is doing on his laptop.

104
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:50,000
That is why I write it down to kind of gauge and map the time line is my vote was just to try and go through the timeline and then talk about the reset at the end.

105
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,000
But now we're dragging all of you through the same confusion.

106
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,000
We have break next week, by the way, because we don't have that much time.

107
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,000
Yeah.

108
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:02,000
So do you want to start since you're like the UDF?

109
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Yeah, I'll do a little bit of a world intro and kind of the setup for session one, because technically we had a session zero and then I didn't really like the way I did it.

110
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,000
Everyone else did though.

111
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,000
And then we had a session one.

112
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,000
So yeah.

113
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:23,000
Go back and listen to previous episode specifically about capes and crooks and that'll give you a little bit of world intro.

114
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,000
Please.

115
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:25,000
Please and write.

116
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,000
Please, please go back.

117
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,000
Please go back and listen.

118
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,000
The world is kind of cyberpunky inspired.

119
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:42,000
I wanted to play in a more modern setting, but something that was a little bit ahead of modern like I didn't want to just play like in 2024.

120
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,000
It's boring.

121
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:57,000
So I did superhero setting using the capes and crooks example timeline that they provide in their TT RPG fifth edition sourcebook sort of overarching themes and idea in world setup.

122
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:06,000
So in 2099, which is the time I have it set at, I'm pretty sure in the sourcebook, it's a little bit before that superheroes exist.

123
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,000
Superpowered beings exist.

124
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:15,000
They're called deviants because there is a deviation somewhere within their genes that allows them to do superhuman things.

125
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,000
But it extends past people.

126
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:24,000
Plants and animals alike have also been affected by the shift that happens right around like the 20s.

127
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,000
I want to say around the 2030s.

128
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,000
And then all of a sudden everything goes to shit.

129
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,000
World governments collapsed.

130
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:38,000
Countries don't know what the fuck to do because now they have to handle their own superhero being or superpowered beings that don't know how to handle themselves.

131
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:53,000
After many, many years of turmoil in the world being absolute chaos, eventually using with the sort of bankroll of a company called vein, which is like the ultimate capitalist company comes in and partners with what's left of the world governments and says,

132
00:07:53,000 --> 00:08:02,000
What if we made cities that were designed specifically for deviants and non deviants to live together so that we stop like killing each other in the waste?

133
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,000
So that's what they do.

134
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Basically mad max outside of the city.

135
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,000
Yeah, more or less.

136
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,000
We haven't really explored a whole lot of what's out there yet either.

137
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,000
So I mean, that's we'll get there eventually, I'm sure.

138
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:18,000
But we're very much focused on what's inside the cities that are called gem cities.

139
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:23,000
There are probably anywhere from 30 to 40 of them around the world.

140
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Each of them again is kind of run by vein and slash the remainder of the good of the world governments that are sort of operating as one.

141
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:46,000
And basically the promise of the the gem cities is that as long as you act right and you abide by the law, you regardless of whether or not you have a deviation or not get to live here and kind of work together in harmony.

142
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,000
There's no discrimination.

143
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,000
There's no poverty.

144
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:58,000
There's no homelessness, which very quickly turns out to be bullshit or at least the version of the world that I played in because that doesn't exist.

145
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:12,000
So then this campaign in particular takes place and one of those Jim cities called sapphire city, which is one of the first cities to allow deviants to go beyond vigilante ism and actually take on the sort of hero status.

146
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:34,000
So being professional, being registered in a sense being given like legal precedent to do things that vigilantes would do like bring in villains or like bring in thugs or stop crime or assist the city using their deviations behind a mask without having to publicly identify themselves.

147
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:45,000
Up until this point in the story, like even before we get to day one, there are a handful of pre established heroes. I mean, they're quite a few, but just kind of a broad overview.

148
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:53,000
There are a handful of organizations like dark, which is sort of like a underground spy network that exists within sapphire city.

149
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:59,000
Their whole thing is basically being sort of in the shadows and then trading information.

150
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:09,000
There are the cod fathers gang. I forget. I think they're called the guppies or some shit. I'm pretty sure that's what they're called. I think that's what they're called.

151
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:36,000
In any ways, those guys are basically all of the animal deviants sort of working together in sort of a shady underground situation under cod fathers rule who's a half man half shark with like water manipulation. He's also just fucking huge and kind of provides this like safe haven for those that are animal powered who kind of receive more discrimination than others because they look different.

152
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:43,000
Again, there's no utopia. It doesn't exist. But they certainly try to get close to one.

153
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,000
Super. Super.

154
00:10:45,000 --> 00:11:06,000
I think of other like criminal. There's a spy circle. So spy circle is kind of like the the what is it the doom squad. Yeah, basically. Yeah, I can like doom squad where it's I mean they're not they're not as nefarious is the doom squad is where it's like oh we're trying to take over the world. I mean it's literally just a city.

155
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,000
It's definitely still like fucked up crime.

156
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:19,000
Cod fathers gang is the more cartoonishly evil group because it's like other gangsters and they use Tommy guns and they like transport goods in and out of the city illegally.

157
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:29,000
They beat the shit out of people. They run like protection rackets and they're just like traditional mobsters that just so happen to look like animals.

158
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:48,000
The spy circle is much more professional about the whole thing. Their form of crime is sort of like high end businesses are running casinos taking over businesses running a lot of fronts sort of sabotaging the government and politics and getting involved in DRT.

159
00:11:48,000 --> 00:12:05,000
So I've never talked about DRT yet. It's a great segue. So then one of our other non villain factions is the deviant response team, although they get pretty fucking close. So because there's a world government setup but there's no like formal formal government in every city with something that veins

160
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:27,000
slash the world government has implemented in every gym city is something called the deviant response team. It's exactly what it sounds like. It's basically just SWAT FBI special forces blah blah blah blah blah. But their only sort of goal and job is managing managing deviance, whether that is developing new technologies for them to safely exist within the city.

161
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:43,000
If someone's powers or deviations are sort of too volatile for them to handle. Also, they're the ones that come in and like arrest deviance and their technology and the weapons that they use are sort of designed to neutralize any deviation across the spectrum.

162
00:12:43,000 --> 00:13:04,000
They're like full time job around the clock 24 hours a day is literally developing new technologies for each sort of new kind of deviant that exists within the city. Be below them. There is the SAFIRE city police department run by Commissioner slain is basically just Jim Gordon but a woman.

163
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:21,000
And they're kind of the shitty end of the stick. So if you have DRT who shows up in like 30 minutes to an hour when they're called you have the SCPD and they have to be there immediately but what the fuck is a guy with a gun going to do against somebody who can literally fire lightning bolts out of their hands.

164
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:42,000
It's kind of comical that the two exist within the same city. But it does according to the source book and I thought that's kind of a funny contradiction to have right you have like the cops who are in today's society seen as the corrupt ones and yet like the step above them DRT are the ones that are often seen and sort of thought of as like these really shitty people.

165
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:57,000
So the cops are novel in this one they're just trying to survive like everybody else. Everyone else does. So they're kind of there for the more small stuff breaking up gangs and that kind of fun stuff. But again what's a guy with a gun going to do against somebody who has bulletproof skin.

166
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:12,000
Or a giant shark or a giant shark. Yeah. Nothing. So that's sort of where the natural rise then for heroes comes right because DRT isn't really trusted. Also they because their equipment is so specialized and because they operate out of the heart of the city.

167
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:24,000
It takes them fucking forever to get anything done. Well it would be like calling the FBI anytime that there was like a crime. Yeah. It's like that is not going to happen. Yeah it's just they have one central location as a police officer.

168
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:38,000
Yeah. Well they have like departments and stations. Yeah. So then that's kind of where the natural rise for superheroes comes in because I mean right we have people that are obviously going to use their deviations to either get a one up in life or commit crimes.

169
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:53,000
Rob places take things they shouldn't you know why people do crime. So then you have the opposite of them people that are interested in using their deviations to stop those people and sort of further that ideal that mission of like living in a utopia or living in harmony with one another.

170
00:14:53,000 --> 00:15:09,000
And because the cops can't do anything about that and DRT is too few for the many people that live in their cities. We allow superheroes to call themselves superheroes. And that's kind of where like the setting for the campaign really comes in.

171
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:22,000
The positive factions outside of the police. We have the every man brigade which is basically like. Oh my God what's that service online where you can hire people for just random jobs. Task rabbit. Yeah. Task rabbit.

172
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:40,000
Shit like that. But for heroes. So it's you know if some billionaire needs a team to I don't know go fetch a fucking artifact from gang number one two and three then he can just instead of having to go and find one through adventuring he can just pay somebody.

173
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:48,000
Yeah. He can go to every man brigade say hey I need a team of five. This is the kind of mission. This is the like the level of difficulty or the amount of risk and then you can hire heroes.

174
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:57,000
And also just gives heroes the chance to actually get paid for what they do. So that's kind of the other positive. Yeah. The positive side.

175
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:07,000
To like the every man brigade beyond them. There aren't really a lot of other hero factions. There are. There's the furnace which is run by the second most powerful hero in the city called inferno.

176
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:25,000
It's basically like a full time training complex and like hero mill if you will. Very exclusive very hard to get into turns out a lot of really powerful heroes that all kind of work within this network and then aside from them you have the only successful hero team that it has existed within

177
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:43,000
SAFRA setting in the last 60 70 years the millennial group don't ask me why they're called that I stole that name from a book that I read forever ago. Yeah couldn't tell you. They are old so it is kind of funny because you know millennial group but

178
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:59,000
yeah beyond that I think it was just kind of like turn of the century things so they it's a team of five it's basically just the traditional like Avengers you have like a Captain America knockoff rebellion you have a vision kind of character name processor

179
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:15,000
Holy shit I'm forgetting the people in the team there are a few unique ones there's fistful there's a kind of a Scarlet Witch Scarlet Witch character named Black Magic named Black Magic who uses like magic

180
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:30,000
there's fistful who's basically just the Hulk but if he was white spray tan from Jersey had blonde hair and basically did superpowers steroids and then you have Monk who is like a

181
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:46,000
or diva as well. Yep and you have Monk who's basically just like a monk who has telepathy who has incredibly strong telepathy and doesn't speak to people and then diva who has like supersonic voice powers and that's kind of like her whole thing

182
00:17:46,000 --> 00:18:01,000
so not a huge setup for the world honestly I mean you have all these factions there's a lot of heroes there's also the number one here in the city which I would be yelled at if I didn't mention incredibly integral to somebody's back story named Serge

183
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:18,000
she's like light Superman she's not quite as invincible but in this setting she basically is so some more background about the powers in the way that they exist in this universe you're called with or there's a name for people that have more than one set of powers and they're called a gene hazard

184
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:36,000
and the reason for that is it's already incredibly difficult for someone's body to balance one deviation when you start introducing more deviations like the rate of that person making it past birth is incredibly low if they do then you have a significantly more dangerous person

185
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:56,000
but also just infinitely more potential and Serge is one of the only I mean pretty much the only successful gene hazard person with two sets of powers to exist within Sapphire City she has basically gravity manipulation and then also incredibly strong energy projection so she's

186
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:10,000
there's not much can't do she's very solo in the sense that she doesn't interact with a lot of people she doesn't really do a lot of social media she's very just kind of like I'm here to protect the city because that's what my powers allow me to do

187
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:26,000
she's very stoic she's not nearly as friendly as some of her like other hero counterparts are but that's kind of because the job doesn't really require that so a slightly different take on Superman is more like if Superman had Batman's like

188
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:40,000
a little bit of a stoicism and outlook on people but still had to be Superman with all of the power and responsibility that comes with that it's like no I don't want to talk to any of you I don't want to have to take care of you but I have not

189
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:58,000
but not Brody but I have the power set and I like helping people so I'm here and I'm doing it yeah also I know that none of you are better than me so like let's calm the fuck down correct we're trying to step to me 24 seven I have I don't have no idea who the number three hero is in the city if you ask me couldn't tell you probably rebellion but

190
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:18,000
I'm gross yeah that is what it is so not a blonde man that's the very long winded setup for the universe we pick up I guess we'll just start with session one right we pick up with five people four people five people five four people introduce one later we introduce the fifth person several more sessions

191
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:28,000
and I'm just the fact checker here yeah pretty much my role this episode is like actually no yeah we're gonna try and speed run to the

192
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:46,000
to the flash my episode where everything gets reset but it starts with our four heroes for main heroes I guess I should say all conveniently meeting and cod fathers main warehouse where a spider man ask hero called static who operates in the eastern fringes which is basically like the

193
00:20:46,000 --> 00:21:14,000
brogues is being held captive and then an NPC gets introduced in this first episode named jury who is basically just a frat boy asshole who has like be lister status because he has a lot of money and he can pay for social media and he's very conventionally attractive he has very conventional powers he can fly he has super strength and he can see through the eyes of other people so as

194
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:36,000
opposed to somebody who has like a tentacle for an arm he has significantly safer to go with is like an example a hero like a poster child and he has the money to bag it so he basically joins nightlight who's one of our other heroes that Madison plays right in the beginning very conveniently

195
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:52,000
yes I don't know how much of every episode we want to recap because if like we're gonna get bogged down I can do really quick I could just gloss over who the heroes are and like sure yeah if you want to do that so I guess starting with my character because we just mentioned her I've already talked about her in the first capes and crooks one so this will be really fast

196
00:21:52,000 --> 00:22:21,000
her name is nightlight she's 21 years old she's college student she's a huge comic book super fan search is her absolute idol and when she was younger she got powers in a freak accident from another one of the heroes in the world that hero was not aware that she has powers but she decides okay I'm gonna become like my comic books in the way she's able to use her powers as she's able to copy the things that she reads about in her comic books and copy people's power sets

197
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:37,000
yeah so she's kind of like trying to make a name for herself she's like very cartoonishly like sitting on a rooftop just being like crime I'm looking for you and that's where Jerry shows up and she's like yeah I'd track down static we can go there now and he's like great

198
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:58,000
so that's why they had there and then there's another character named cause who 18 years old he's also days he's also from the eastern fringes kind of she's but for intents and purposes from the eastern fringes which is the poorer part of town which is where most of our story takes place

199
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:14,000
yep he is a mechanic at his family's garage he has wind powers he's not a superhero he doesn't have a superhero identity at this point he's he's he's Dick Grayson he's a guy he's a guy that looks like Dick Grayson

200
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:29,000
and he has a younger sister who's Annie powered so he's kind of tapped into that world we know that he doesn't live with his parents he lives with his aunt and his sister there then someone drops off a car to him if you want to

201
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:47,000
yeah uh is it like that one NPC actually interacted with literally every single person yeah so that one NPC jury actually ends up interacting with Sebastian earlier that day unbeknownst to Sebastian in two jury that they would literally meet less than 24 hours later he drops off a car

202
00:23:47,000 --> 00:24:05,000
to Sebastian's family mechanic to get it worked on it is a very expensive car it is very out of place for him to have brought this to the one of the shittiest parts of town right like you're not taking a several hundred thousand they're called credits in this universe

203
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:25,000
credit car to literally the place where cars get jacked in bright daylight and yet he does and then see the car yeah and he finds a somebody's ID and a gun and blood and he's like cool this is bad we got to get rid of this so he calls his friend Ricky

204
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:41,000
who's questionable but Ricky gets shit done so he's like yeah I know who we can sell this to to get it off our hands because literally the only person in town who will buy this car who can afford this car is going to be this guy cod father so let's go to cod father so they head off there

205
00:24:41,000 --> 00:25:01,000
super convenient setup and then I don't know what the fuck shadow was doing to be shadow was I think Jesus Christ so then we have another character called the shadow Jesus Christ sorry his character is just a lot to think of he's gone through some of the more

206
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:21,000
drastic changes out of all of our other characters but he is kind of like a bit Batman had powers like actual powers he manipulates the dark and like darkness and hence the name shadows he can kind of turn shadows and darkness into physical objects and use them as such

207
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:49,000
he can kind of swing around a little bit likes better man it's not quite that fluid use them as weapons he also has a very strong like I think his classes literally psychic so on top of using shadows to sort of be a little bit more stealthy and move around in the dark and create very quick sharp agile weapons he uses his psychic abilities to essentially terrorize the people that he's fighting

208
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:55,000
he's just like a straight up terrorist to a lot of people

209
00:25:55,000 --> 00:26:09,000
kind of crazy he's also a full time doctor so I think when he's introduced if I remember correctly he was tracking down static who shadow has worked with many times like they're basically

210
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:22,000
static is shadows only real friend and that's because static is the only person understands that like shadow doesn't his intention isn't to inflict harm but that's the only way he knows how to do the job so that's what he does

211
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:28,000
and he tracks down a lead last minute to essentially rescue his friend

212
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:33,000
and ends up heading to Godfather's warehouse on the exact same night that everybody else does

213
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:44,000
so we meet at Godfather's warehouse there's some like fun little moments there that I won't get into much detail of like jury nightlight breaking in in the most convoluted way possible

214
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:50,000
password to get in was the word fish and then also like thousand credits on somebody's card

215
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:55,000
and so they're all kind of going in completely different directions

216
00:26:55,000 --> 00:27:08,000
and then we meet inside there's another character called chip who was a this bot called an Atlas bot which were designed by DRT basically to be able to stop deviants

217
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:13,000
if you yeah you could figure out what that means

218
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:28,000
and like he's basically one of the sentinels from the X X men line of comics if you know what those are that's kind of the touchstone for his character so at the time when everybody meets him and even when he's introduced nobody knows what he is

219
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:33,000
androids androids exist in this world contrary to what he himself may believe

220
00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:43,000
they do exist so this is a world right where you have talking dogs you have flying cactus plants you have lightning wielding people

221
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:50,000
it is so not out of the realm of possibility that robots are walking around as autonomous human beings

222
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:57,000
but chip is a little bit unique in the sense that his sort of backstory up until this point which is to sort of reveal later

223
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:04,000
he was basically he was in a like a shipping container from DRT to be disposed outside of the city

224
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:11,000
con father's guys basically jack the container take all the technology they find inside of because DRT's got nice stuff

225
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,000
and just so happened to find a little robot sitting in the back of the shipping container

226
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:19,000
it's basically you know in Star Wars where C3PO was working for job of the hut for that period of time

227
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:26,000
yeah it was that yeah like fully they somehow managed to turn on this incredibly advanced piece of technology

228
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:31,000
it does not immediately go into a deviant killing mode or they all would have died

229
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:37,000
instead it's basically just like a child it's just like a baby that got turned on that's ready to take orders

230
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:41,000
because they just tinkered with an enough until it it fucked up and turned on

231
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:45,000
it was never even designed to be turned on

232
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:52,000
so over the next handful of months he's basically just like the personal butler for cod father

233
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:58,000
and because he literally does anything you tell him to do because that's the only software he has running

234
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:03,000
cod father never tells him to like keep anything to himself because he never leaves the warehouse

235
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,000
he doesn't really interact with people he's raised by gangsters

236
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:09,000
he's just kind of a guy

237
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:15,000
he's just like a little little but if anyone's seen the movie Chappy it's also kind of a touchstone for his character as well

238
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:22,000
it's very Baymax it's like yeah yeah it's it's it goes arrive very quickly for jury and for nightlight

239
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:27,000
they get in jury starts shit somebody says jury's government last name out loud

240
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:32,000
because the car was being returned because the car was being sold there and somebody basically ran the Venn number

241
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:39,000
and they go cool it's registered to somebody with the last name Umbra which is also the last name of the mayor of Sapphire City

242
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:45,000
so then confidant loses his shit and is basically like cool so not only did you bring me a really expensive car

243
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:52,000
that's going to be hard for me to get rid of but you brought me the car potentially of the mayor like to my warehouse

244
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:59,000
yeah jury hears that shit goes uh it's time to bail and nightlight goes well why but no we've got to like do the superhero thing

245
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,000
that's the whole reason we came

246
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:08,000
so then everyone fights um chip doesn't really know what side to take because his orders are basically just to keep things safe

247
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:14,000
um his whole interaction through that entire combat encounter was so weird

248
00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:21,000
because if one of the heroes said hey please don't hurt me he wouldn't but if con father said hey don't let that car get away

249
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,000
he's gonna shoot a fucking rocket at it

250
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:30,000
yeah so it was just it was it was funny it was a great um intro episode but it was very fun so they

251
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,000
gives you an idea of how that goes

252
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:37,000
the fight happens it goes great they find static they rescue static I say rescue he's in a coma

253
00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:46,000
but they they get him and then shadow calls his fucking car over and is like everyone who we know what has interacted with each other

254
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:55,000
in this fight by the way there we've all just been fighting nightlight and jury and chip interacted um but that was about it

255
00:30:55,000 --> 00:31:03,000
shadow and Sebastian who is not called cause at the time interact a little bit in that shadow steps into trying to save him and his friend Ricky's life

256
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:10,000
um it was a decision to shadow deeply regrets because shortly thereafter Ricky picks up again and starts shooting people

257
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:18,000
because Ricky unlike everybody else who is a player character is it gives zero fuck about the preservation of life

258
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:27,000
he's basically just like a very low level gangster who was just here to make like a car deal and I'll be damned if he's gonna die in a fucking warehouse

259
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:34,000
Ricky's like this is my last stand and there's a moment where cause is literally about to get shot and potentially go down to zero HP

260
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:42,000
and Ricky pulls out a fucking gun and puts it to the guys temple and pulls the trigger yeah and Sebastian slack jawed is like what the fuck is happening

261
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:49,000
Ricky then pulls him into the room shoves packets of drugs and guns in a duffel bag and is like cool we're shooting our way out

262
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:56,000
yeah it was it was a lot crazy as combat and so fun little combat they all happen to be like outside at the same time

263
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:07,000
and uh nightlight is dragging uh the statics body basically um and he shadow pulls up and is like I'm a doctor we need to get this man to the hospital

264
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:15,000
get in my car and for some reason everyone listens we listened and we all got in the car and we all go to the hospital we're at the hospital

265
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:25,000
this is where things get fucking Jerry doesn't go with by the way um Jerry saves a civilian who also happens to be Sebastian's sister who stowed away in the

266
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:35,000
trunk of the car because she thought the car was cool saves her and is like cool I'm done this is so much more than I bargained for you all have fun see a never

267
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:44,000
yeah so that's why he doesn't go with them he also at this point if you can't tell this is an NPC that basically became a player character

268
00:32:44,000 --> 00:33:00,000
because of some life reasons box that's my box the reason he wasn't there is that it didn't matter at the time um so they all go to the hospital everyone's getting treated for their wounds

269
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:13,000
um some people are a little bit more experienced with being shot than others um and during this shadow fully reveals to the group uh my alter ego is Damien I'm a doctor I'm taking over this operation

270
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:22,000
fronts the hospital bill for uh Sebastian and Daisy who are both broke and live in the eastern fringes and do not have a dollar to their name

271
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:33,000
and he goes no no no I got you I'm a rich doctor and then uh as the cops come in and start asking questions and nightlight has a panic attack and tells the cops everything because

272
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:50,000
yeah that's what you do um then she talks to Chip and is like can you give me any more information on cod father and he decides to in a wild move um put every single piece of information that he's gathered since he's been turned on

273
00:33:50,000 --> 00:34:03,000
uh public on the internet like on twitter um one of the cops chose up to talk to the heroes that were brought into the hospital because that's kind of her fucking job um is commissioners lane the head of the uh scpd

274
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:16,000
she comes in and is like because before this drt guys are in there questioning and as shadows like don't say a fucking word nightlights about to crack slain comes in and goes cool how will she fuck heads get out of the room

275
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:26,000
and they leave because slain's a very intimidating person she bounces from person to person doesn't get a whole lot of information and then finds chip and goes hey chip what can you tell me about cod father and he goes

276
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:35,000
you have a computer nearby and you know this is a world full of technologies just like I was sure what you have to laptop if that's you need just you know drop the files and like a folder

277
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:47,000
well our player thought it'd be absolutely fucking fucking hilarious if um shipped it and understand the difference between just putting the information on a computer and then making it public knowledge

278
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,000
like setting up a twitter account to post it

279
00:34:50,000 --> 00:35:08,000
yep so in literally the blink of an eye he basically plugs himself into a computer makes a twitter account post everything and I mean everything that he has on confidler names addresses shipments weapons fucking car vent numbers you name it

280
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:12,000
it's out there why because cod father never thought he was gonna lose the fucking robot

281
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,000
yeah

282
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,000
why would he the thing basically does what it's told

283
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:31,000
yeah so as soon as that goes public there's a fun little phone call over at d r t headquarters and we meet a character named Oliver who is one of the head scientists for d r t and his boss this guy named Henry is like hey man remember that robot that went

284
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:40,000
that that that that that went missing that we were trying to get rid of and he goes yeah I remember that he goes well it just turned on how the fuck did it turn on also it's loose

285
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:49,000
it just doxxed cod father maybe you get off your ass and go get it I'll give you a literal army

286
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:53,000
if you can go retrieve the million experiment yeah

287
00:35:53,000 --> 00:36:01,000
so Oliver who's another one of the player characters who we later find out is a hero named vault with lightning powers like a sea lister

288
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:16,000
heads off to the hospital there's a brief moment in the hospital where it's like at the d r t has taken static into their custody and he's like being treated and everyone's like great yeah that's what we came to do except from one character named shadow

289
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:30,000
and he goes hey kids you stay in this room because at this point it's just yep nightlight and Sebastian he goes stay in this room I'm gonna go crawl through the vents because I don't trust d r t and they're like okay strange grown ass man that we don't know

290
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:43,000
and he does that and then he decides that the best course of action is to kidnap static and break him out of the hospital at the same time that d r t is rolling up to try and retrieve chip

291
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:52,000
at some point briefly jury shows up to talk to night lighting is like hey don't talk to the cops and also maybe don't hang out with these people just putting that out there

292
00:36:52,000 --> 00:37:04,000
and then he's like hey dog bad vibes from everyone here I better than that I respect what you're doing you're kind of bad at it but like maybe you could be good word of professional friendly advice

293
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:32,000
and then he drops them as soon as humanly possible never interacted them ever again and like maybe maybe you could be somebody that's not what happens d r t shows up with Oliver slash vault undercover is Oliver sort of part of his whole personality is that he's an incredibly intelligent person who essentially is trying to work through the system so he works d r t during the day

294
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:49,000
and his vault sort of during the evening and he's also the head of the experimental experimental technologies department so he actually has quite a bit of leeway turns out that would be my fucking downfall I was giving my my players a little bit too much power before they were ready for it

295
00:37:49,000 --> 00:38:03,000
but he can kind of do it every once to because he's the head of one of their most like sacred departments I mean half of 75% of what d r t does is make experimental technology and he's literally the executive director of that he's also crazy

296
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:24,000
he's also batshit that's just part of his personality that none of us know until much later yeah so he shows up with an army tank he shows up with an army tank and pushing it back okay he shows up with a bunch of shit basically everything that d r t has available locks down the entire hospital sets up snipers walks in and is like cool everybody that's in this building

297
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:43,000
point us in the direction of the robot that's been walking around he gets looped several times chip runs chip hides basically on command shadow disappears in the vents like Madison mentioned in goes to rescue static who's also being held by d r t for some reason nobody knows why they're doing that they don't know why they did that today actually

298
00:38:43,000 --> 00:39:03,000
because we haven't had the time to get to that piece of information but anyways all of that happens chip knocks out volt in the first interaction we find out that vault slash Oliver is actually chips creator he literally is that like he pioneered their experimental sort of atlas bot program

299
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:27,000
and intentionally fucked him up so that way he could never be turned on and then he was so it was both a shock that his boss was yelling at him to go get a million chip a million credit piece of technology and also a shock because his Frankensteins monster that was basically built with zero on switch turned on turned on and was in a hospital full of innocent civilians

300
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:40,000
and it didn't go well none of it goes well so long story short the rest of the team grabs chip they bail out of the hospital to stolen ambulance because cars fly they fly the fuck out

301
00:39:40,000 --> 00:40:05,000
and all the cars in this universe by the way are like a very propulsion propelled like anti gravity stuff so there's like a little bit of a combat and the fuck out everyone's like where do we go what do we do work criminals now are we criminals now why are we doing this

302
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:13,000
I can't believe you forgot who showed up in the middle of all that

303
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:20,000
as you all were literally flying away oh yeah I was just doing a quick gloss over version I thought that was important

304
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:33,000
anyway search shows up in the middle of this after she has a stern talking to the vault on the ground it basically goes hey dog I need you to do your job because right now you're looking mad fucking incompetent and this is kind of embarrassing for all of us

305
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:44,000
so what does Oliver do makes a bunch of shitty ass smart alec remarks and then goes fuck you I'll do what I want and Serge goes okay we can that's fine we can keep that energy and then flips all his vehicles and then leaves

306
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:57,000
in the process of them leaving she stops all of them Oliver included and is basically tells Oliver hey you need to find them and you need to keep them safe some shit's going down I can't tell you what it is please do your job

307
00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:06,000
I know who you are please do your job flies away also stops the car as it's like mid flight across the city and goes hey guys what are we doing

308
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:15,000
only to know the reason I didn't mention it because it was only to fucking Sebastian oh yeah he then established that we had crank windows

309
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:23,000
well I'm like cool your car suddenly stops moving midair and doesn't begin to fall or go forward or backwards or anything because she has fucking gravity powers

310
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:33,000
she basically sits on top of the car sits in the front of the car is like hey you wrote on the windows we can talk for a second he goes yeah I crank down the window excuse me

311
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,000
you do what

312
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:46,000
it's a flying car it has crank every car is basically it's an ambulance it's basically a mini jet oh yeah they also steal a fucking jet or not a jet sorry an ambulance they fight on the

313
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:55,000
no the ambulance is what has crank windows yeah they they all has crank windows so now cannot canonically every vehicle we have in this universe has crank windows

314
00:41:55,000 --> 00:42:05,000
so they go to Ricky's Sebastian's like y'all could stay the night here night lights kind of goes like respectfully I'm going to go back to my place

315
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:13,000
but everyone else kind of stays the night and the only reason I mentioned that night light goes off is she goes to meet up with her very best friend

316
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:21,000
Parker who absolutely hates heroes and has no idea that she is one at their favorite comic book shop and as she's picking up her new issues

317
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:28,000
she's like oh look I made a little appearance in the jury comic and she's like buying all of her other ones stay up to date and she finds a comic book

318
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:34,000
that looks like it was homemade and has her on the cover and it's and it's like titled night light and it's her first comic book and she's so excited

319
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:41,000
and she takes that and she buys it and she cannot wait to show all of her new friends tomorrow

320
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:46,000
and so the next day they've all decided that they're going to meet at Sebastian's family's garage

321
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:55,000
they all go there and increasingly like everyone else shows up like in full costume except for Sebastian who is not a superhero at this point

322
00:42:55,000 --> 00:43:05,000
night light shows up in like a fucking hoodie and sunglasses and a hat as to not like the very Captain America like incognito fit on the way there

323
00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:12,000
and so the shadow is also walking down the street and then Oliver rolls up unprompted

324
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:19,000
Oliver and night light had a brief interaction in the hospital in which he came in locked the door behind him and said some cryptic ass shit

325
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:26,000
and she wasn't about that energy and he starts getting weird and she clocks this she pulls out a pepper spray and sprays it at him

326
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:34,000
it's like that spider-man meme but it's like two men in their thirties and then like a fucking college girl in a sweatshirt with pepper spray

327
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:40,000
and his solution was to step up and push her finger down on the pepper spray and pepper spray himself in the eyes

328
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:44,000
and that should have been a red flag for all of us at the table but it wasn't

329
00:43:44,000 --> 00:43:47,000
no I think it was it just you can't do much about that

330
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:50,000
see it's still like that he was that level of crazy

331
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:54,000
yeah I didn't know he was going to be that level of crazy either if it does you just how

332
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,000
oh my god I'm going to hurt myself

333
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:58,000
you work on that

334
00:43:58,000 --> 00:43:59,000
yeah

335
00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:00,000
so they go into the garage

336
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:01,000
one second

337
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:06,000
they meet in the back they start kind of like updating and touching base on everything

338
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,000
um Oliver's in tow he

339
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:13,000
everyone's like hey man what the fuck are you doing here it's another tense moment

340
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,000
nightlight at this point pulls out her Glock

341
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:20,000
because she stays strapped and everyone's like why the fuck do you have a gun and then he puts it in his mouth

342
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,000
like he steps forward

343
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:28,000
and it kind of gives the gun a blow job and that was another moment where it should have clicked for some of us at the table

344
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,000
oh he's crazy and it didn't

345
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,000
um so there's that fun little interaction

346
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:37,000
um Oliver reveals to all of them nah I'm actually a double agent I'm vault the superhero

347
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:42,000
um you all are in some shit I'm just I'm just I'm trying to help the team I'm trying to help y'all

348
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:43,000
can I do it

349
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,000
also that robot in the corner is mine

350
00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:46,000
yeah

351
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,000
and is incredibly dangerous please step away from the robot

352
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:53,000
and everybody goes if I remember correctly I knocked you the fuck out I'm not going anywhere

353
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:56,000
and everyone's like no this robot's our new friend actually we're not going to give him up

354
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:01,000
so Ted standoff then Inferno you know the second hero that uh

355
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:04,000
Robert mentioned before uh walks into the garage

356
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:10,000
um it says hey Sebastian can I talk to you when he goes yeah and we go what's up why is he here

357
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,000
and he goes oh that's my dad

358
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:16,000
just doesn't like attempt to withhold information he goes yeah that's my father

359
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:21,000
off bat they have a conversation he's like I'm glad you're like gonna become a hero now

360
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:22,000
he's like I

361
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:27,000
Sebastian's like no dog not really toxic dad of all time I don't live with you

362
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:31,000
definitely he's up there with shitty dads in the universe we have two that are competing right now

363
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,000
for the number one shitty spot you have to introduce a good dad

364
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:39,000
yeah I will eventually I don't think there are many p I mean we haven't talked about vaults dad at all

365
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,000
so I guess there's an opportunity to do it there

366
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:46,000
yeah I don't have a dad I haven't introduced a single mom yet they're all dead

367
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,000
I don't have either

368
00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:54,000
Sebastian's is dead shadows is dead I think I think they're all dead

369
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,000
vaults part of vaults backstory is that his mother dies when he gets his powers

370
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:01,000
yeah I was fucked up everyone's mom is dead

371
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:05,000
maybe I'll kill a dad next time I have my moms but they live in a different city

372
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:12,000
yeah not only your biological mother though no I'm saying everyone else is like bio family immediate family members are all fucking dead

373
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:14,000
nah she's a foster baby

374
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:18,000
just kind of tells you what kind of backstory is our characters players sorry like to make

375
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:26,000
yeah anyway yeah so that happens as they're still kind of having this tense conversation

376
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:32,000
an envelope shows up addressed at nightlight and she opens it and oh my gosh it's another comic book but why does

377
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:40,000
someone know that I'm here okay guess it's time to read through this comic book oh and like the first comic book like followed her

378
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:47,000
and she's like that's kind of weird because like how did somebody know but like everything that I did is in public so like I guess it could

379
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:54,000
have been someone who saw or it also could have been like maybe like Jerry did this because she was in like the back of his last comic

380
00:46:54,000 --> 00:47:00,000
and he's very tuned into like he has like invisibles like an invisible assistant that follows him and like gets the information and everything

381
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:09,000
so she didn't think much of it now the second one has her like apartment it has her alter ego it has her best friend it has like all of

382
00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:16,000
her personal information it was basically everything she's done over the last 24 hours yeah like to simplify to a T and to her opening up this

383
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:25,000
comic and she's like oh I'm not about that actually and then she flips the page and sees this drawing of a woman in a black superhero costume

384
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:34,000
or like I guess not hero costume in a costume with like a red stripe down and she's and like holding hands with her and she's

385
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:40,000
like this isn't like fun anymore and she kind of shows it to the gang she's like hey guys I think I might have a stalker this started

386
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:46,000
off as fun and now this doesn't seem fun anymore and everyone's like that's concerning and then she gets a phone call

387
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:55,000
she wanted to be famous not in this way she wanted to be famous then she gets a phone call from officer slain saying hey commissioner

388
00:47:55,000 --> 00:48:05,000
my bad commissioner slain different title my bad I made a mistake correct forgive me just to know okay shoot me what happens with

389
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:11,000
the third one continue she hands out by the way business cards to like everyone she meets because she's like trying to network as a

390
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:18,000
hero and she was like you gave me your business card you seemed like a good kid there's this case at this guy named Rexford

391
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:25,000
chillers place he needs help finding this like artifact that went missing if you want to go ahead and like take that case and like

392
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:32,000
you can bring people or a team or whatever and nightlight is like this is my fucking moment and tells everyone there she's

393
00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:38,000
like all of you are coming with me we're going to Rexford chillers we're going to solve this case we're going to be a team

394
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:44,000
let's be a team because I get to put together a team for this it'll be exciting and fun to be a little bit more evenly

395
00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:51,000
evenly spread because Madison is very much nightlight other things are happening other characters at the same time believe it or not

396
00:48:51,000 --> 00:49:01,000
shadow is also trying to raise up Sebastian's aunt at this point and is basically living full time with them he very quickly moves in

397
00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:12,000
he goes hey aunt Susie here's a fat stack of credits what if I just like a hundred thousand temporarily

398
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:21,000
because I don't really want to go home right now which I feel like maybe I should like protect the youngsters also a terrible person

399
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:27,000
but you don't know that some doctor and she goes that happens you are welcome

400
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:36,000
yeah Sebastian is very much somebody from the street yeah Sebastian is trying to run away from being a superhero at breaking

401
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:45,000
speed he's like guys I really I didn't want to be there in the first place I have so many other now you're living with me now my

402
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:56,000
my house my home my family business is your base man's is not in for but he has to because unless they resolve everything that is

403
00:49:56,000 --> 00:50:04,000
happening like getting rid of the robot fingering out what to do with static is a one in criminal now who's also in his home

404
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:13,000
he really can't get away from it so bit of a forced obligation to interact Oliver's there to be Oliver to be vault he's got a robot that he's

405
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:20,000
gonna take care of in some superheroes that he was basically told to watch over by Superman so he's doing that yeah

406
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:44,000
anybody else is oh chip is just Pinocchio he's just walking around going wow what's that wow what's that wow what's that and then somebody pulls out a gun and he turns into Atlas he goes from chip to Atlas which is like this whole like a morphing process like an exosuit thing and then he fucking shoots people yeah

407
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:56,000
chips a fun character to try and write story points for because truly I could throw anything at him and he'd be like wow you know his whole arc is becoming a real boy believe it or not

408
00:50:56,000 --> 00:51:19,000
yeah 100% Pinocchio but it's fun he's a very adorable character so Rexford is Bruce Wayne without the Batman he is a hot dumb loaded and pretty much it that's like his whole character stick there's nothing else there fun fact on a nat one we find out

409
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:32,000
slash discover slash write into existence that nightlight has a massive crush on potentially one of the dumbest people to exist in the city because he's hot I tried to do a lore check and it was a nat one and

410
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:46,000
you know everything there is to know about him including who he's dated in the past what his line of fragrances is like what vehicles he drives how many magazines he's appeared in yeah each number on those magazines that he was

411
00:51:46,000 --> 00:52:00,000
like is he's your celebrity crush so that was a so her individual investigation went off track so fast which is funny because she's like the only person in the party that has any like real pluses to

412
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:09,000
investigation she a very quick right out the window very quickly learned she's just like the detective super she's the she's Batman detective

413
00:52:09,000 --> 00:52:25,000
and that level of like preparedness like investigation and all that stuff yeah just immediately none of that mattered yeah so the lead with Rexford is that he he has a lot of money and with that money he likes to collect basically odds and ends

414
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:40,000
in the form of magical items in the form of dangerous items because this is a world and those exist he showcases them he hosts really big galas and basically just buys a bunch of really dangerous shit and puts it in his home because that's he can do that

415
00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:55,000
and then one of them goes missing he puts out basically a bounty if you will anybody any team is willing is welcome to come to his home investigate the scene if they can find the staff great here's a fat stack credits if you can't sucks to suck

416
00:52:55,000 --> 00:53:09,000
there's a lot of money is going to be there on time to deal with us and of course that's when commissioner sling it's a whole that lead and goes hey maybe you can do this because you're not have that they show up to do a lot of investigating they realize that his personal assistant might be

417
00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:12,400
personal assistance also he's a total tool

418
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:16,160
and there's a piece of the staff that's gone missing called the gravitas which

419
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:19,520
is basically a staff that's sort of like rumored because people are really like

420
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:20,840
turn them on

421
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:23,280
uh... to have like gravity powers

422
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:27,780
of shocker later much later they find out it does exactly that

423
00:53:27,780 --> 00:53:31,400
uh... so they be detectives they find things out they get a bunch of

424
00:53:31,400 --> 00:53:35,760
information nightlight shadow and rexford almost have a threesome it's

425
00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:36,840
bad

426
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:41,320
uh... i like it's a retired tuition covered by shadow if so that you won't

427
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:44,040
sleep with him sleep with rexford

428
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:45,120
rexford goes

429
00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:48,560
a hey man if you want to sleep with me you can go down to my garage and take

430
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,080
any car you want

431
00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:54,480
and shadow goes what if i paid for your tuition

432
00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:55,760
and then knocks him out

433
00:53:55,760 --> 00:54:00,160
it was reverse prostitution and that she was actively being paid to not sleep

434
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:02,080
with someone

435
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:04,320
but she got her tuition covered

436
00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:06,960
uh... yeah

437
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,640
that was that was so fun was such

438
00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:13,920
and it was a really fun investigation all things considered they hop in the car

439
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,720
they go back

440
00:54:15,720 --> 00:54:19,640
i gave them a bone because i felt bad because none of them passed one check

441
00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:22,880
on the way in and on the way out the person that took all their weapons in

442
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,360
the beginning like the door

443
00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:25,520
man

444
00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:28,640
was the red stripe chick

445
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:31,360
fucking with him basically also

446
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:34,600
who would have thought that maybe the secretary person is also a red stripe lady

447
00:54:34,600 --> 00:54:38,240
so most like she's gonna be the main villain for a while or something

448
00:54:38,240 --> 00:54:40,320
not to be a little bit of anything

449
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:41,160
so they

450
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:43,520
they go back

451
00:54:43,520 --> 00:54:46,200
i was talking about the base because we added that in

452
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:47,640
wouldn't that happen

453
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:48,840
that happened after

454
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:49,600
it was

455
00:54:49,600 --> 00:54:53,440
in the timeline alteration thing right now which is where it's going to be

456
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:56,360
i didn't think that the base thing happened until after

457
00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:59,040
prodigal did her

458
00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:02,240
until red stripe lady did her thing first

459
00:55:02,240 --> 00:55:03,680
are we doing that

460
00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:06,480
no the first one the first one okay

461
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:08,400
yeah because the first so

462
00:55:08,400 --> 00:55:11,080
in the first one says where it gets confusing because this is where a lot

463
00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:13,760
of the changes happen because a lot of things happen that i was in a fan of

464
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,880
and nobody else was so we reckon a lot

465
00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:20,920
they go back from rexford's they show up to uh... the garage

466
00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:24,080
their impromptu base all the lights are out

467
00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:29,000
uh... aunt susie and clloe sebastian's younger any powered sister they're gone

468
00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,200
there's a comic book

469
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:32,760
it's all bad

470
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:33,600
uh...

471
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:37,320
nightlight goes on the roof to read the comic book reand finds one of the

472
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:38,800
comic books

473
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,800
uh... it says duck on the last page

474
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:45,000
shocker she didn't duck fast enough in gets shot

475
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:45,760
uh...

476
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:47,880
hardest fuck like fully snipe

477
00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:51,000
yeah like snipe from the like the top of the skyscraper kind of

478
00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:52,440
on death saving

479
00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:55,560
yep at like the beginning of combat uh...

480
00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:59,240
she fires or somebody fires another bullet sebastian going for the two

481
00:55:59,240 --> 00:56:01,080
youngest party members

482
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,480
and uh... he catches that shit

483
00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:05,120
with a wrench

484
00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:07,320
yeah it is the bullet with a wrench and that's when we learn that these

485
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,960
bullets are not just bullets these bullets have

486
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:11,560
neuro toxin in them

487
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:15,040
like a whole half of the bullet just got a fun poison cocktail

488
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:16,240
it is trying to

489
00:56:16,240 --> 00:56:16,760
but it

490
00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:18,560
not people that

491
00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:21,240
yeah make it so they cannot get back up

492
00:56:21,240 --> 00:56:22,320
uh...

493
00:56:22,320 --> 00:56:24,160
presumably for kidnapping

494
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:28,320
so then at the same time d r t shows up

495
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:32,240
and then everybody fits it makes a fighting d r t things it's a mix of

496
00:56:32,240 --> 00:56:35,480
the shadow goes and you did not just shoot the two youngest people in the

497
00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:38,240
party i actually love them like children now

498
00:56:38,240 --> 00:56:42,880
and then proceeds to fall sprint up the side of the site skyscraper

499
00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:46,920
to essentially rush the person with the sniper rifle assuming it is red stripe

500
00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:47,780
lighting

501
00:56:47,780 --> 00:56:48,960
not it not

502
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:52,760
he he's like he's like the whole combat

503
00:56:52,760 --> 00:56:56,880
doing this like the entire combat encounter is finished by the time that

504
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,320
he gets up there and has his one v one with this person

505
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:03,040
if that tells you how dedicated he was to this goal

506
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:06,800
garage gets destroyed at the most of the walls in the garage get destroyed a

507
00:57:06,800 --> 00:57:10,800
bunch of d r t people are knocked out yet a car gets driven into the house at

508
00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:12,480
one point or in the garage

509
00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:13,920
is bananas

510
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,120
uh... nobody dies

511
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:17,040
uh... oh

512
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:20,640
one of the things in the only thing actually in front of gave sepastian we

513
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:22,480
saw was a pen

514
00:57:22,480 --> 00:57:26,000
came up in and a box with a costume in it that he doesn't open for many many

515
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:30,560
sessions but anyways he has a pen and it's very much like a percy jackson pen

516
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:34,520
uh... he says inferno in the middle of combat encounter it turns into a giant

517
00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:38,840
fire lance because what else is the man that does fire things give a son

518
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:42,440
and then he stabs somebody and burns them alive because he's angry

519
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:48,140
and we have never addressed that in the campaign since it happened

520
00:57:48,140 --> 00:57:52,560
i mean we literally have not addressed that since it happened

521
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:57,000
he is eighteen years old he burned a man alive it is only been mentioned in a

522
00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:01,040
throwaway line by his father who basically said next time

523
00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:05,240
so sweep up the ashes so that i don't have to do that for you

524
00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:07,920
you're not that great at what you like you know you don't have you're not a

525
00:58:07,920 --> 00:58:10,000
great job

526
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:12,080
that crazy thing that happens

527
00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:13,560
nothing comes of it

528
00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:16,840
uh... really the only thing significant that happens in this combat is that uh...

529
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:20,200
shadow runs the one v ones with red stripe lady

530
00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:22,800
gets his ass kicked immediately

531
00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:26,840
uh... fun fact he has a huge weakness to light which is funny because there's a

532
00:58:26,840 --> 00:58:29,200
light based character in the campaign

533
00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:32,080
uh... which means she fact we can't really heal him

534
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:35,560
uh... many ways he gets up there and gets hit with like six different

535
00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:38,680
spotlights all at the same time and then proceeds to to get

536
00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:39,920
manhandled

537
00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:44,960
uh... but not before he invades her mind and realizes that she's so crazy

538
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:48,920
that she has created a mental construct of every party member

539
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:50,600
including chip

540
00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:53,520
uh... and that helps her basically plan for what they're going to do because

541
00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:54,760
she's bad shit

542
00:58:54,760 --> 00:58:56,000
so what does he do

543
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:58,760
he rips out his personality

544
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:01,440
in her in her mind

545
00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:05,160
because that's how metal he is and then he also gets like shot point blank in

546
00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:07,060
oh yeah and then he gets shot

547
00:59:07,060 --> 00:59:11,280
several times they end up tumbling off the side at this point i'm thinking cool

548
00:59:11,280 --> 00:59:14,000
he's gonna let her fall off the edge and that's gonna be it

549
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:17,860
no he jumps off of the skyscraper

550
00:59:17,860 --> 00:59:21,120
after her in a nosedive to catch her

551
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:25,800
she turns around three sixty midair spins at the waist levels the sniper i

552
00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:27,080
feel as justin goes

553
00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:28,480
hot jokes on you

554
00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:29,920
and bulls a trigger

555
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:33,520
uh... and then they end up back in the fucking building she says some really

556
00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:35,960
sexual things to him and is like a dog

557
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:38,560
you're kind of cool i fuck with everything you got going on right now

558
00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:39,920
but we'll talk later

559
00:59:39,920 --> 00:59:44,960
and then skin at all i'm going to kill you like the dog you are yep

560
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:46,880
uh... he's put in a coma

561
00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:50,120
because he took a bullet to the chest

562
00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:50,820
uh...

563
00:59:50,820 --> 00:59:54,680
they take it from there and crew drives up uh... nightlight put them in the car

564
00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:56,080
just like a dog

565
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:57,280
what's up

566
00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:59,040
he's like i'm fine

567
00:59:59,040 --> 01:00:03,920
and she's like there's a i can't heal you we've like over kind of have established

568
01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:04,740
that but

569
01:00:04,740 --> 01:00:07,560
she cannot heal him

570
01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:11,480
they go back they find at this point everything's bad

571
01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:12,960
uh... they

572
01:00:12,960 --> 01:00:14,800
takes static

573
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:16,800
yeah we never

574
01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:18,720
we never can

575
01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:19,760
static

576
01:00:19,760 --> 01:00:20,600
never

577
01:00:20,600 --> 01:00:22,240
we got he existed

578
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:26,520
so in the first time line static is also kidnapped along with susie

579
01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:28,520
alright so that's where he is

580
01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:29,920
he's often wherever

581
01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:31,560
uh... so

582
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,400
we're like we need a new base because this one's just got blown the fuck up

583
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:38,200
so chips like i found an old how to out the cod father used to use

584
01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:42,200
they go there it's like underwater it's it's super sick but i'm not gonna and

585
01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:45,640
swanky you'll probably hear more about it uh... in the one shot that we do

586
01:00:45,640 --> 01:00:46,880
yep um...

587
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:48,000
super swing

588
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:51,040
and they go to the base they start setting up the base

589
01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:54,320
uh... and this is what this is literally how fast things

590
01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:58,720
when yeah it was literally the session so uh... or cell service down there

591
01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:01,160
cuz it's you a little bit of baxter before we get to this moment it's a

592
01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:02,640
little bit important

593
01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:07,120
oliver has been basically harassed by his bosses whole time because at this

594
01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:09,640
point i have been playing his boss henry

595
01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:11,520
like a mega asshole

596
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:14,920
uh... it's like texting all the time where are you you can't just disappear

597
01:01:14,920 --> 01:01:18,840
you have a really important job i've since relaxed that

598
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:22,120
because that's just a lot for him as a person to handle

599
01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:25,280
and a lot for me as a person and i'm not gonna put that fully on him

600
01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:26,480
and is like hey

601
01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:30,200
you can just disappear and he goes i haven't disappeared i'm actually

602
01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:32,720
tailing the people that have the pro-bot

603
01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:37,320
and he's at this point blowing off his boss multiple times who is the director

604
01:01:37,320 --> 01:01:39,680
of d r t

605
01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:44,840
he is the director of the f b i he is going to disappear you if you do not

606
01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:46,720
appear yourself

607
01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:49,440
at work with evidence that his

608
01:01:49,440 --> 01:01:51,600
probably several hundred thousand

609
01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:55,600
credit venture into rating the hospital which failed

610
01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:57,240
came of something

611
01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:01,440
and is like cool if you're really on the trail of somebody

612
01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:04,760
give me proof because at this point i'm calling bullshit

613
01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:08,280
and it's at this moment uh... that they realize that the cell the

614
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:11,160
base that they're in doesn't have cell service and nightly none of its turn on

615
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,640
it's to text her very best friend the world parker and make sure that he's

616
01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:15,600
okay

617
01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:20,120
uh... so she goes alright i'm gonna take the pretty long track back up

618
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:23,200
uh... but it's like a three and a half minute elf

619
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:24,880
and everyone's like hey

620
01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:27,240
you have a stalker that just

621
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:30,480
jumped the fuck out of us and shot you immediately

622
01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:33,800
we don't want to leave you a supervised so what goes out go with her

623
01:02:33,800 --> 01:02:35,000
all chaperone

624
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:35,920
she's like

625
01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:36,720
okay

626
01:02:36,720 --> 01:02:38,360
which in a fucked up way

627
01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:42,200
is immediately what he did when you got back to the original timeline percent

628
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:45,800
uh... so she's like grown woman don't need a chaperone but whatever

629
01:02:45,800 --> 01:02:50,360
so she's up there she's trying to text and call her best friend literally just

630
01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:51,840
it my new business

631
01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:53,440
just trying to text her bestie

632
01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:54,960
and he goes hey

633
01:02:54,960 --> 01:02:58,600
superhero pose and she's never gonna pass up an opportunity for super hero

634
01:02:58,600 --> 01:03:01,480
post because she's been all about selfies and like hanging out in group

635
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:02,480
team things

636
01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:03,520
at this point

637
01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:07,360
and so she poses and he takes that picture and he sends it to his boss

638
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:08,280
henry and goes

639
01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:11,880
she's behind it all

640
01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:13,640
yeah

641
01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:16,720
he takes it a step further than that and goes not only is she behind it all

642
01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:20,960
she's also working with like the biggest terrorist organization in the city

643
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:22,720
the spy circle

644
01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:24,360
all unprompted

645
01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:25,400
yeah he gets

646
01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:29,040
while he's up there he's also checking his phone because again he has a full

647
01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:32,120
time very important job and that's when he gets the tax it says hey man i need

648
01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:32,680
proof

649
01:03:32,680 --> 01:03:33,760
you're fired

650
01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:35,440
you're beyond fired

651
01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:36,600
uh... he goes

652
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:38,280
uh...

653
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:39,600
okay

654
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:41,240
and then says

655
01:03:41,240 --> 01:03:42,200
hero pose

656
01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:46,240
takes a picture since it's a henry and then that's when things go fully off the

657
01:03:46,240 --> 01:03:47,800
fucking rails

658
01:03:47,800 --> 01:03:52,600
henry goes sick i'm gonna put out a warrant for her rest

659
01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:56,320
we're gonna find out who she is where she lives

660
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:59,320
uh... and we'll go from there

661
01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:01,080
uh... great job

662
01:04:01,080 --> 01:04:03,000
keep up the good work

663
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:06,600
she goes back to her apartment that night and invite sebastian to come with

664
01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:09,320
her and stay the night because his house just got blown up

665
01:04:09,320 --> 01:04:12,920
uh... and that evening she gets a knock on the door

666
01:04:12,920 --> 01:04:15,320
and it is uh...

667
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:16,720
commissioner

668
01:04:16,720 --> 01:04:17,320
commissioner

669
01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:19,280
commissioner slain and she goes

670
01:04:19,280 --> 01:04:22,800
uh... open the door and she goes now without a warrant and she goes open the

671
01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:25,560
door nightlight and she goes

672
01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:27,840
uh... and she goes yeah

673
01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:28,880
things are bad

674
01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:32,000

675
01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:33,840

and she was like you you have to be gone

678
01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:44,120
until you gotta figure out how to solve this problem

679
01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:44,880
and figure out

680
01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:48,840
why suddenly d r t i you were there number one most wanted

681
01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:52,040
and uh... you are linked with the spice circle

682
01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:55,160
and you're linked with static disappearance and you're linked with the

683
01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:56,360
atlas spot

684
01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:59,360
and all of these other like crazy things that happened

685
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:03,240
uh... and she's like okay i guess my life's over now

686
01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:05,480

687
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:09,280
it's like sebastian we gotta go i don't have a home either now

688
01:05:09,280 --> 01:05:12,040
she moves into the base with sebastian

689
01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:14,120

690
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:15,720

692
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:23,840
with the chaos of what was happening you know i'm so hard so into what we were

693
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:24,960
doing

694
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:26,680
i'd like to remind you

695
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:29,960
of a couple of important events that have happened at this point

696
01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:31,000
number one

697
01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:35,000
sebastian's family has been kidnapped presumably by red stripe lady

698
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:35,880
number two

699
01:05:35,880 --> 01:05:40,240
static is also presumably been kidnapped by a red stripe lady

700
01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:42,200
uh... number three

701
01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:44,640
they have a case that they've accepted

702
01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:46,520
have a lead on have

703
01:05:46,520 --> 01:05:47,240
essentially

704
01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:50,880
open and put their name and ring in the hat for that one

705
01:05:50,880 --> 01:05:54,120
that that's also out there

706
01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:59,320
eat yet the look really those three main things from here on out until we reset

707
01:05:59,320 --> 01:06:01,400
the timeline do not get addressed

708
01:06:01,400 --> 01:06:02,960
do not get tackled

709
01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:06,520
get zero interaction because

710
01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:11,000

724
01:06:56,880 --> 01:07:00,360
than you think she's related he goes i mean she's not like everything

725
01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:01,080
she's

726
01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,680
the mastermind she is

727
01:07:03,680 --> 01:07:04,760
the big bad

728
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:09,320
she's the bbg for all intents and purposes that's so cool man

729
01:07:09,320 --> 01:07:13,400
uh... you still have a robotics pro program to finish

730
01:07:13,400 --> 01:07:14,280
but if we did that

731
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:19,040
but if we worked on that for a little bit and vocals okay

732
01:07:19,040 --> 01:07:22,520
uh... so henry takes him down to the lab and goes cool if you can turn on one

733
01:07:22,520 --> 01:07:26,160
of these things for me i will extend your deadline of rest not rescuing but

734
01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:28,120
basically reclaiming chip

735
01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:32,520
uh... by a handful of time week month whatever he's like we need these bots

736
01:07:32,520 --> 01:07:37,360
to kill this night like that's at this point yes so we that powerful apparently

737
01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:38,800
turns on one

738
01:07:38,800 --> 01:07:42,120
and henry's like cool deadline extended

739
01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:45,360
and then if you want to talk about night lights identity thing that happens in

740
01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:48,720
the middle of all this so at this point night lights identity is compromised

741
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:49,720
is daisy

742
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:51,000
uh... it's like

743
01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:54,120
kinda kind of just like that yeah is nightlight

744
01:07:54,120 --> 01:07:57,360
it's kind of public but not like super public that nightline and days you're the

745
01:07:57,360 --> 01:07:58,040
same

746
01:07:58,040 --> 01:08:04,280
person it's kind of like if you look on to news channels you can find it but like

747
01:08:04,280 --> 01:08:05,800
it's not the top build story

748
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:09,120
nightlight being a criminal is definitely very public information

749
01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:13,880
so she's like cool i guess i have to give up on that so she be uh... dons the

750
01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:15,440
identity of blackout

751
01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:17,800
uh... where she basically

752
01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:18,600
it's

753
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:21,640
very similar to like the spider man uh...

754
01:08:21,640 --> 01:08:24,840
uh... suit that he wears in in the second one

755
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:26,240
the black one

756
01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:27,920
and the tom holland ones

757
01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:32,200
uh... she's no longer using her powers and said she's using guns

758
01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:35,040
she goes to uh... uh... black

759
01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:39,040
like black market shop and me and to get some more guns because she's like i

760
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:42,760
can't use my powers because they're gonna realize it's me

761
01:08:42,760 --> 01:08:44,400
she meets this guy

762
01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:47,160
name at the the the deal is going bad

763
01:08:47,160 --> 01:08:51,240
it's just it's bad she like i guess so what do you want to go for is like what

764
01:08:51,240 --> 01:08:55,600
can i buy a gun he goes yeah what for though is like you are so very clearly

765
01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:58,880
out of your depth in that basically happens until eventually he pulls out a

766
01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:01,080
shotgun and goes cool you're gonna buy the gun

767
01:09:01,080 --> 01:09:04,920
and the ammo for full price and you're gonna leave

768
01:09:04,920 --> 01:09:08,760
and then it just continues to go off the rails from there it just gets bad and

769
01:09:08,760 --> 01:09:12,600
worse and then uh... someone comes up from behind and just clocks him in the

770
01:09:12,600 --> 01:09:13,640
fucking head

771
01:09:13,640 --> 01:09:17,320
uh... and she ends up fighting with him

772
01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:20,280
uh... like alongside the guy who punched him uh...

773
01:09:20,280 --> 01:09:23,840
his name is morphe is a anti-powered uh... shape shifter

774
01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:25,600
uh... they become buddies

775
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:26,760
uh...

776
01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:31,840
it's just it's a nice little like one kind of happy thing that happened

777
01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:35,000
uh... in in the midst of all of this fuckery

778
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:37,400
and she also gets a cat named wink

779
01:09:37,400 --> 01:09:42,560
uh... that morphe uh... named with morphe's cat that attaches itself to her

780
01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:47,280
uh... he it's a hawk all shape shifters at that like has hawk wings

781
01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:50,440
and talons and can do fun things

782
01:09:50,440 --> 01:09:55,840
uh... so she gets news that there's now some fuck shit happening in uh... outside

783
01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:57,320
drt headquarters

784
01:09:57,320 --> 01:10:00,720
as uh... one of these bots has

785
01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:05,440
uh... jesus christ yeah so everything's happening with that as you can tell just

786
01:10:05,440 --> 01:10:08,520
uh... on our body language loan this is where it started to get to a point where

787
01:10:08,520 --> 01:10:13,080
it was like we weren't happy with what we were doing

788
01:10:13,080 --> 01:10:15,960
but we were trucking on yeah uh...

789
01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:19,720
the plot with all the other characters also at this point gets lost chip

790
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:20,680
is

791
01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:23,640
making friends with the local bodega man

792
01:10:23,640 --> 01:10:27,360
and learning how to be a real boy and that's basically his only mission at this

793
01:10:27,360 --> 01:10:28,760
point

794
01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:30,160
uh... shadow is

795
01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:34,200
is it's just started clinic in the eastern fringes and very quickly takes

796
01:10:34,200 --> 01:10:38,640
that back because it is too stressful trying to run an entire many hospital on

797
01:10:38,640 --> 01:10:39,600
his own

798
01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:44,200
after he was fired from his last doctor job because he just stopped coming in

799
01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:48,360
uh... you know because he was there and then all the sudden wasn't because that

800
01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:51,040
was the hospital they broke static out of

801
01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:53,320
they're all going to the bucket trenches

802
01:10:53,320 --> 01:10:57,080
shadows like all i'm trying to find people i have no idea where to look

803
01:10:57,080 --> 01:11:01,880
causes just like my life fucking sucks i'm so depressed this is awful

804
01:11:01,880 --> 01:11:05,640
yeah it's all fucking bad my neighborhood is trashed my family's been

805
01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:08,240
kidnapped my home has been destroyed

806
01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:10,080
my friends are nuts

807
01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:11,760
i don't want anything to do with it

808
01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:14,160
he may let's going to identity crisis

809
01:11:14,160 --> 01:11:18,160
he may as a basket make friends parker who's been running some likes working at

810
01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:22,200
some soup kitchens and volunteers for uh... any people in the fringes yep uh...

811
01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:26,480
and in a very sad way like nightlight dressed up as black up basically sets up

812
01:11:26,480 --> 01:11:29,800
like a little camp across the street from where parker normally volunteers

813
01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:33,080
to keep an eye on him make sure that he's okay

814
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:35,400
yep so things things are going well

815
01:11:35,400 --> 01:11:39,400
things are things are starting to get back on track at this point i say

816
01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:41,360
starting in a very loose way

817
01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:45,160
i have plans for more than others i have plans to resolve the identity crisis

818
01:11:45,160 --> 01:11:48,440
that's happening nightlight are happy with nightlight i know what's going on

819
01:11:48,440 --> 01:11:53,640
with cause a i'm i'm starting to make them circle back around to

820
01:11:53,640 --> 01:11:59,080
rescuing his fucking family that's been gone for a month at this point

821
01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:00,080
shadow is

822
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,640
figuring out his personal life and then

823
01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:05,640
vault who is at the heart of all of these problems

824
01:12:05,640 --> 01:12:09,260
uh... goes back to henry again and henry's like cool

825
01:12:09,260 --> 01:12:12,120
uh... how do we turn them all on

826
01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:16,400
you turned one of them somebody turned one of them on in they are literally a

827
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:17,920
fucking goon

828
01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:19,600
if a gun can do it

829
01:12:19,600 --> 01:12:20,760
you can do it

830
01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:25,200
vault has been purposely sabotaging these bots up to this point by the way so

831
01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:28,040
that they would never be able to get turned on

832
01:12:28,040 --> 01:12:33,680
so he cracks seeing zero way out of the situation goes fine i'll show you how to

833
01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:36,080
turn them on for like an hour

834
01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:37,960
right after this happens

835
01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:40,000
henry goes cool so

836
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:40,760
i've had you

837
01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:41,880
tailed

838
01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:44,120
and i've had your phone bugged

839
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:46,480
since you made basically the first

840
01:12:46,480 --> 01:12:48,040
screenshot phone call

841
01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:51,340
whatever the fuck about nightlight since you've been coming and going from your

842
01:12:51,340 --> 01:12:53,200
little base in the fringes

843
01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:56,280
i know who you are and know your superhero identity

844
01:12:56,280 --> 01:13:00,280
i like you enough as a person and i appreciate the work that you do enough

845
01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:03,440
as an employee that if you just agree to hang up the cape

846
01:13:03,440 --> 01:13:05,000
right now

847
01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:07,120
i'll let you just keep living your life

848
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:09,000
just stopping a fucking superhero

849
01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:10,200
just stop it

850
01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:11,560
just stop it

851
01:13:11,560 --> 01:13:13,040
so he goes

852
01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:14,560
now

853
01:13:14,560 --> 01:13:17,240
not actually i'm a farmer find a way out

854
01:13:17,240 --> 01:13:19,540
there is a fully functional

855
01:13:19,540 --> 01:13:20,800
atlas bot

856
01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:24,840
the chip by the way has done uh... in the person that plays him has have been

857
01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:29,520
absolutely wonderful example of what one of these bots capable of like he is a

858
01:13:29,520 --> 01:13:30,960
everyman

859
01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:35,400
maximum health maximum head points spell for everything kind of character

860
01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:36,200
because he's a

861
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:40,640
spot that has nano technology means like the front of technology in this world

862
01:13:40,640 --> 01:13:42,640
it's a shenny was yeah

863
01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:43,360
uh...

864
01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:47,520
in he turns one of them on so keep in mind there's one of these bots when he's

865
01:13:47,520 --> 01:13:53,080
atlas bots that is designed to handle any deviation it encounters that has just

866
01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:56,120
been turned on less than ten feet away from him

867
01:13:56,120 --> 01:14:00,080
henry goes i'll give you one chance he's in a room full of guards

868
01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:02,400
we've also established at this point that people

869
01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:04,720
use guns in guns fucking suck

870
01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:09,280
like you a lot of damage they hit you multiple times their guns their guns

871
01:14:09,280 --> 01:14:10,960
that's the idea

872
01:14:10,960 --> 01:14:12,120
so as well to

873
01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:14,960
because you'll fight my way out

874
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:18,640
so henry then i'll find a way to never mention that i don't get affected with a

875
01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:19,720
parasite

876
01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:21,360
all yeah

877
01:14:21,360 --> 01:14:23,880
he has been a it he's now batman

878
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:26,680
but he has never when he got shot in the chest

879
01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:31,280
so the neuro toxin basically mixes with his his nervous system in his shadow

880
01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:35,280
powers essentially circulated through his body to keep him alive and to put him

881
01:14:35,280 --> 01:14:38,240
back like iron man style basically live with the magnet

882
01:14:38,240 --> 01:14:39,880
to keep him alive

883
01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:40,760
well

884
01:14:40,760 --> 01:14:45,280
he just took an extended trip inside uh... red stripe ladies minds who's now

885
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:46,560
prodigal

886
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:48,000
and prodigal's minds

887
01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:48,720
is fucked

888
01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:51,000
uh... is fucked so this

889
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:55,280
neuro toxin that's basically designed to debilitate people and having taken a fun

890
01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:59,160
extended stay in prodigal's mind will also basically missing three quarters of

891
01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:00,000
his heart

892
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:01,920
makes for a really nasty mix

893
01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:06,120
the shadows basically form an entire personality of their own to keep him alive

894
01:15:06,120 --> 01:15:07,720
that is basically like venom

895
01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:08,840
is like cool

896
01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:10,440
kill people

897
01:15:10,440 --> 01:15:11,440
kill people

898
01:15:11,440 --> 01:15:15,680
now that's also happening side to go back to where it were killed him and he's

899
01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:20,640
like i have so many new powers now also i can't go out in the sunlight because

900
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:25,440
now i'm incredibly weak to anything that has light

901
01:15:25,440 --> 01:15:28,840
so that's all happening with him at the same time and i have no idea what to do

902
01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:30,160
with that

903
01:15:30,160 --> 01:15:30,880
so

904
01:15:30,880 --> 01:15:32,760
we'll back to fucking volt

905
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:37,160
he's like cool my fight my way out henry goes that's so disappointing

906
01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:39,760
i can't let you leave you know too much

907
01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:43,000
henry then demonstrates that he has some kind of powers before he even gets

908
01:15:43,000 --> 01:15:46,920
chance to use them all fucking ten guards in the room turn their guns on and fire

909
01:15:46,920 --> 01:15:50,920
volt goes basically last initiative order for talking about combat mechanics

910
01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:53,400
the bot one tabs him

911
01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:56,640
he comes back to life using one of our fun little mechanics for you can spend

912
01:15:56,640 --> 01:15:59,920
these things called stamina died basically like hero surge yourself back

913
01:15:59,920 --> 01:16:01,000
to life

914
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:04,960
i let him come back from death saving throws three fucking times

915
01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:07,440
three times in a combat

916
01:16:07,440 --> 01:16:11,640
twice is the maximum number you're allowed before you perm a guy by the way

917
01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,720
i was nice enough at this point to go cool

918
01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:18,960
all you made a decision certainly you didn't know how bad it was going to be

919
01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:21,080
let's get you out of the building

920
01:16:21,080 --> 01:16:23,360
he gets out of the building this bot is

921
01:16:23,360 --> 01:16:28,600
fully locked on to him because their only prerogative is to detain

922
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:31,840
deviants that have shown hostility

923
01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:35,320
he's going around tason people transcribe right so it's like cool

924
01:16:35,320 --> 01:16:36,200
um...

925
01:16:36,200 --> 01:16:37,800
picking you up dog

926
01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:41,000
cuffs the whole nine yards i'm doing what i do to put you down

927
01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:44,440
they make it to the front steps of the rt there at this point in broad fucking

928
01:16:44,440 --> 01:16:45,640
daylight

929
01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:47,600
and he is fighting for his life

930
01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:49,760
absolutely fruitlessly

931
01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:53,320
he's about to get curb stomped into the ground by atlas two point now because of

932
01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:55,760
this point recalling chip atlas one point now

933
01:16:55,760 --> 01:17:00,560
uh... and then surge who he speaks to literally half hour before he goes into

934
01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:02,120
the into this meeting

935
01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:05,280
he named drops that he knows that surges girlfriend is his best friend whose

936
01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:08,640
name is jenny that's also a thing that happens it's only relevant because it's

937
01:17:08,640 --> 01:17:11,040
the only thing that saves his life

938
01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:13,920
in this conversation with surge he basically stops in midair and goes

939
01:17:13,920 --> 01:17:17,920
hey dog i gave you two jobs and you have done zero of them

940
01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:19,600
and you know what he says

941
01:17:19,600 --> 01:17:20,600
he says

942
01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:26,720
all that sucks also tell your girlfriend i said hi

943
01:17:26,720 --> 01:17:28,980
haa

944
01:17:28,980 --> 01:17:32,400
you said what to who

945
01:17:32,400 --> 01:17:37,240
he told superman he knew lewis lane and to tell her he said hi

946
01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:38,880
after he had already

947
01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:44,760
basically told her that he had done none of what he was supposed to do

948
01:17:44,760 --> 01:17:47,480
turns on the deviant murder bots

949
01:17:47,480 --> 01:17:51,040
immediately after so he's about to die in the front steps surge

950
01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:54,840
literally only because she knows that he is a friend

951
01:17:54,840 --> 01:17:56,400
of her girlfriends

952
01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:57,300
shows up

953
01:17:57,300 --> 01:17:58,840
and saves his life

954
01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:02,960
in goes i want you to understand that it's it's for no other reason you have

955
01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:04,640
a connection to me

956
01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:07,960
uh... and it's gonna look real bad if i let you down these front steps right now

957
01:18:07,960 --> 01:18:11,040
i'm gonna save your life basically picks them up sets them down i don't want to

958
01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:13,880
be the dog house of my girlfriend right now and that is the only reason i'm

959
01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:18,200
saving your picture and then proceeds to one v one the fucking atlas bot in

960
01:18:18,200 --> 01:18:18,960
public

961
01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:23,800
uh... for reference when i was designing mechanics and combat steps in

962
01:18:23,800 --> 01:18:28,880
stat blocks i was like how do i make this character beyond busted i have

963
01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:32,720
written down how much damage he did in that she's like level

964
01:18:32,720 --> 01:18:34,600
twenty five for reference

965
01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:35,880
she is

966
01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:39,720
if if i had to put a c r on her she would be up there with a terrasque

967
01:18:39,720 --> 01:18:44,480
if not higher she is supposed to be untouchable

968
01:18:44,480 --> 01:18:49,880
these bots are designed to adapt any deviation almost certainly with people

969
01:18:49,880 --> 01:18:52,880
like surgeon inferno in mind

970
01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:55,600
she almost fucking dies

971
01:18:55,600 --> 01:19:00,400
one of these things there are ten of them by the way in stock that henry now

972
01:19:00,400 --> 01:19:02,800
has the basically the keys to

973
01:19:02,800 --> 01:19:05,960
we've also found out previous to this that somebody has a manual override

974
01:19:05,960 --> 01:19:09,480
button installed in every one of these bots

975
01:19:09,480 --> 01:19:10,440
so

976
01:19:10,440 --> 01:19:11,720
even if henry's

977
01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:14,920
mind and harder in the right place it doesn't matter because apparently if

978
01:19:14,920 --> 01:19:18,640
somebody wants to turn them on sicko mode all they have to do is flip a switch

979
01:19:18,640 --> 01:19:19,480
yeah

980
01:19:19,480 --> 01:19:20,680
so

981
01:19:20,680 --> 01:19:25,560
one of these things almost chaos the most powerful hero in the city in front

982
01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:28,280
of everybody in public

983
01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:31,600
uh... that's how that combat counter ends the millennium group shows up is

984
01:19:31,600 --> 01:19:33,560
basically doing damage control

985
01:19:33,560 --> 01:19:37,640
rebellion walks off with surge a very fun moment happens where black magic and

986
01:19:37,640 --> 01:19:41,320
rebellion basically corner volt put him in a bubble where nobody can see or talk

987
01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:42,160
to him

988
01:19:42,160 --> 01:19:44,280
and rebellion goes i want you to know

989
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:47,160
that i would literally put you in the ground right now if we were anywhere

990
01:19:47,160 --> 01:19:50,880
other than public you are a garbage person you're a shit hero

991
01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:53,920
why are you even doing this job in the proceeds to slap him

992
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:56,640
across the face

993
01:19:56,640 --> 01:19:59,800
in that moment is like yeah fuck you i really care

994
01:19:59,800 --> 01:20:01,480
insane

995
01:20:01,480 --> 01:20:06,200
literally insane you just almost cause superman to die

996
01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:10,120
in just the arrogance in the face of everything was just nuts i mean that's

997
01:20:10,120 --> 01:20:13,400
the character that's not even the player i mean did we talked about that

998
01:20:13,400 --> 01:20:17,360
during character creation we just let him reach a point where he had too many

999
01:20:17,360 --> 01:20:19,640
options to be that person

1000
01:20:19,640 --> 01:20:23,680
uh... i did not humble him enough up until this point i waited way too late

1001
01:20:23,680 --> 01:20:24,800
and by then

1002
01:20:24,800 --> 01:20:27,440
we were on a state of many i didn't matter

1003
01:20:27,440 --> 01:20:30,760
it the many at this table with

1004
01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:32,520
is like

1005
01:20:32,520 --> 01:20:36,280
because i read that what happens next with things get if you think things

1006
01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:41,160
cannot get more fuck it so things get more fuck shit superman search right is

1007
01:20:41,160 --> 01:20:45,480
on death's door nobody know the medical analysis that everyone is able to

1008
01:20:45,480 --> 01:20:49,360
perform at the scene is that she may never be able to physically recover from

1009
01:20:49,360 --> 01:20:50,280
the fight

1010
01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:53,160
i designed a mechanic for her that allows her to basically burn the

1011
01:20:53,160 --> 01:20:55,840
equivalent of several ninth level spells

1012
01:20:55,840 --> 01:20:57,600
on a single turn

1013
01:20:57,600 --> 01:21:00,600
she does that barely edges out the wind

1014
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:05,440
and that ability was only meant to be used if she was going to die

1015
01:21:05,440 --> 01:21:09,640
she reaches that point uses that ability basically

1016
01:21:09,640 --> 01:21:13,240
fucks herself is bleeding profusely from the face and from the nose and

1017
01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:14,880
everyone's like yeah dog

1018
01:21:14,880 --> 01:21:18,120
i don't know if she's getting back up

1019
01:21:18,120 --> 01:21:22,360
i don't know if a little healing coma to thing is going to do it i think she

1020
01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:24,600
might just be fucked

1021
01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:25,680
uh...

1022
01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:29,320
all of that happens everyone goes back to hq

1023
01:21:29,320 --> 01:21:32,600
now it's a conversation of what we do about the box

1024
01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:34,460
bolt is feeling very bad

1025
01:21:34,460 --> 01:21:36,280
bolt is feeling remorseful

1026
01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:37,740
he's thinking

1027
01:21:37,740 --> 01:21:41,760
well i i just thought that that's entirely right in his apartment and

1028
01:21:41,760 --> 01:21:42,600
prodigal

1029
01:21:42,600 --> 01:21:44,960
beats the shit out of him and go

1030
01:21:44,960 --> 01:21:45,900
hey

1031
01:21:45,900 --> 01:21:48,720
why'd you snitch mother fucker

1032
01:21:48,720 --> 01:21:53,200
and wide-eyed things i forget why did you dot snite light and he went i don't

1033
01:21:53,200 --> 01:21:56,520
know when she went you've got to play by the rules bitch laps him and leaves him

1034
01:21:56,520 --> 01:21:59,840
a comic book and it once again follows the traditional there were another

1035
01:21:59,840 --> 01:22:01,960
couple comic books that night like i thought that i

1036
01:22:01,960 --> 01:22:02,960
didn't mention

1037
01:22:02,960 --> 01:22:06,520
uh... and it like follows nightlight up until the point where uh... vault

1038
01:22:06,520 --> 01:22:09,680
decides to do the superhero pose thing and then it takes over and switches to

1039
01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:11,120
vaults perspective

1040
01:22:11,120 --> 01:22:14,280
yet follows his life bolts become the new hyper-facetation

1041
01:22:14,280 --> 01:22:14,960
yeah

1042
01:22:14,960 --> 01:22:18,240
and uh...

1043
01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:22,200
another copy of this exact comic was left on uh...

1044
01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:27,080
yeah when we say follows vaults perspective this is a panel by panel of

1045
01:22:27,080 --> 01:22:29,000
every decision volt has made

1046
01:22:29,000 --> 01:22:33,120
literally since he went up and took a picture of nightlight which means his

1047
01:22:33,120 --> 01:22:34,400
crime

1048
01:22:34,400 --> 01:22:39,040
which is doxing one of their team members and then turning on the bots is

1049
01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:41,220
documented in a

1050
01:22:41,220 --> 01:22:45,680
pretty faithful series of fucked up comic books like prodigal's crazy don't

1051
01:22:45,680 --> 01:22:48,840
get me wrong she's been fairly faithful in her adaptions of the comic books

1052
01:22:48,840 --> 01:22:50,440
because she's a fucking psycho

1053
01:22:50,440 --> 01:22:52,280
so there's no reason not to believe that

1054
01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:55,920
shadow by the way who's our batman does not know how to be batman at this point

1055
01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:58,600
and has not made the decision to be batman so he is

1056
01:22:58,600 --> 01:23:01,520
a bucket blabbermouth

1057
01:23:01,520 --> 01:23:07,000
he and i like it homegirl he's like immediately several times everything

1058
01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:09,360
announces to several people that jury

1059
01:23:09,360 --> 01:23:12,580
the review of the mpc that wasn't that important that was just there in the

1060
01:23:12,580 --> 01:23:13,400
beginning to

1061
01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:17,160
you know be a guy and helps move the story along their fucking brothers

1062
01:23:17,160 --> 01:23:21,520
mentions that several times their sons of the mayor were like you gotta stop

1063
01:23:21,520 --> 01:23:24,560
say it he just keeps telling people things about himself

1064
01:23:24,560 --> 01:23:26,920
he gets a copy of this comic as well

1065
01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:30,160
uh... they all go meet at the base nightlight tells everyone about the

1066
01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:32,240
identity league thing blabla blabla

1067
01:23:32,240 --> 01:23:34,160
shadow hands her the comic

1068
01:23:34,160 --> 01:23:36,680
uh... entails a degree that

1069
01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:39,920
he has i'm not keeping secrets from anybody he doesn't read it before he

1070
01:23:39,920 --> 01:23:42,920
hands it to her on instinct went

1071
01:23:42,920 --> 01:23:46,280
she was like this has your name on it he was like

1072
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:48,520
so she reads it she sees that

1073
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:51,240
and this moment at the table at the dentist based on his head you're not

1074
01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:52,560
even going to read it

1075
01:23:52,560 --> 01:23:54,480
he goes what give it to her anyways

1076
01:23:54,480 --> 01:23:55,120
i said

1077
01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:56,560
want to read it first

1078
01:23:56,560 --> 01:23:57,640
so he reads it

1079
01:23:57,640 --> 01:24:00,000
and then he goes yeah i'm still gonna give it to her

1080
01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:03,560
and so she reads the page and she sees that volt is the one that rats are out

1081
01:24:03,560 --> 01:24:06,320
in this is a moment where me as a player is still trying to fight against

1082
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:07,920
because i'm playing just

1083
01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:10,360
good character like one thing about nightlight

1084
01:24:10,360 --> 01:24:13,640
is that she's just good to the fucking core and she forgives everyone and she

1085
01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:15,400
believes there's good in everyone

1086
01:24:15,400 --> 01:24:17,880
and it's very infuriating for me as a player

1087
01:24:17,880 --> 01:24:22,240
to play a character that good sometimes because i'm like this is bullshit i want

1088
01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:24,560
to be mad at people

1089
01:24:24,560 --> 01:24:27,040
doesn't make sense for nightlight

1090
01:24:27,040 --> 01:24:31,960
the fucking ray of god damn sunshine that she is

1091
01:24:31,960 --> 01:24:34,520
to like like to to hold grudges

1092
01:24:34,520 --> 01:24:36,440
yeah

1093
01:24:36,440 --> 01:24:40,160
that is changed in the reset time i'm a dog

1094
01:24:40,160 --> 01:24:44,360
better than me she rips out the page and just puts it in her pocket

1095
01:24:44,360 --> 01:24:45,960
and doesn't say anything

1096
01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:48,640
at some point but realizes that she knows

1097
01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:51,240
uh... but she's just choosing not to say anything

1098
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:54,200
uh... things are bad they go back to the base

1099
01:24:54,200 --> 01:24:55,280
every week

1100
01:24:55,280 --> 01:24:58,840
i've written down that like there was a moment where volt goes up to her

1101
01:24:58,840 --> 01:25:01,440
breaks his phone in half in front of her

1102
01:25:01,440 --> 01:25:04,600
and just drops it at her feet doesn't say a fucking word

1103
01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:06,400
there is no dialogue

1104
01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:08,000
does that and walks away

1105
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:11,760
and then chip goes up and goes do you like your room i'm sorry you're homeless

1106
01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:15,200
do you like your room and it's just this

1107
01:25:15,200 --> 01:25:18,120
it was bad it was awkward

1108
01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:21,640
we're finally starting to get things on track there's a moment where like

1109
01:25:21,640 --> 01:25:25,160
nightlight finally gets through in texturing goes and meets him as black

1110
01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:28,120
out they have like a full screen fight in a park

1111
01:25:28,120 --> 01:25:31,520
uh... just in public where he's like i told you not fucking hang out with those

1112
01:25:31,520 --> 01:25:35,960
people she was like i made a mistake because i i literally told you to hang

1113
01:25:35,960 --> 01:25:38,880
out with anybody else

1114
01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:41,560
and she's like cool dot can you help me out now

1115
01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:44,720
they're on your own i'm not touching this with ten-foot pole that's the you

1116
01:25:44,720 --> 01:25:47,280
fuck your reputation i'm not fucking mind you

1117
01:25:47,280 --> 01:25:50,240
yes that's the last time this timeline

1118
01:25:50,240 --> 01:25:52,960
uh... he fucking skedaddle

1119
01:25:52,960 --> 01:25:56,800
literally which is now we see me later but yeah but like the very end

1120
01:25:56,800 --> 01:25:58,280
seeming a little better

1121
01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:01,040
bone for you i was putting that interaction out there

1122
01:26:01,040 --> 01:26:02,480
uh... so they

1123
01:26:02,480 --> 01:26:03,880
back at base

1124
01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:06,960
they go on like a cute little patrol is a group and it's finally the first

1125
01:26:06,960 --> 01:26:09,400
nice thing they were in the car father again

1126
01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:13,560
uh... nightlight being all my man everyone's like hey dog what's up you

1127
01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:17,320
kid you could have done that the whole time she's father cannot catch a

1128
01:26:17,320 --> 01:26:22,640
fucking break by the way he is at this point uh... he doesn't have a home he

1129
01:26:22,640 --> 01:26:27,200
doesn't have uh... goons he doesn't have minions there's no

1130
01:26:27,200 --> 01:26:31,480
uh... business he's running he's now taken to essentially fucked up vigilante

1131
01:26:31,480 --> 01:26:35,080
is a minute eating people that are terrorizing the anti-powered people

1132
01:26:35,080 --> 01:26:38,520
that are now homeless because his operation is no longer business yeah

1133
01:26:38,520 --> 01:26:41,000
state finance stop him from doing that

1134
01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:45,320
as a little little fight to see what you do lady and uh...

1135
01:26:45,320 --> 01:26:48,440
shoulda let him do it things are sphanily starting to like

1136
01:26:48,440 --> 01:26:50,000
chill a little bit

1137
01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:53,720
because you know i felt really bad earlier about leaking night lights i

1138
01:26:53,720 --> 01:26:55,360
think we're at this point now

1139
01:26:55,360 --> 01:26:57,240
that's i think i think i know

1140
01:26:57,240 --> 01:26:58,440
what can fix this

1141
01:26:58,440 --> 01:27:01,400
by the way there's at some point in this uh... when there's the whole thing

1142
01:27:01,400 --> 01:27:02,200
that happens

1143
01:27:02,200 --> 01:27:05,560
now it ends up talking to processor is like the robot lady is like

1144
01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:08,920
are you able to like hack into any security camera and like prove basically

1145
01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:10,800
that i have committed these crimes

1146
01:27:10,800 --> 01:27:15,000
uh... and she goes yeah i got you in hinder usb it does not have any of the

1147
01:27:15,000 --> 01:27:18,920
information she asked for on it's just a photo of like surge in the mayor

1148
01:27:18,920 --> 01:27:20,000
and uh...

1149
01:27:20,000 --> 01:27:21,340
henry from d r t

1150
01:27:21,340 --> 01:27:22,560
having dinner together

1151
01:27:22,560 --> 01:27:26,680
and she's like that's not what i asked for but okay i'm sure this is important

1152
01:27:26,680 --> 01:27:27,640
uh...

1153
01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:30,680
so at this point i like has all the evidence that both was the one that like

1154
01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:33,600
that none of these claims are true and that night and that vote made them all

1155
01:27:33,600 --> 01:27:36,120
up but she's refusing to put that out there because she's like i'm not going

1156
01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:38,600
to drag his name down and don't even though he did do this really fucked up

1157
01:27:38,600 --> 01:27:39,240
thing

1158
01:27:39,240 --> 01:27:42,240
i'm a good person

1159
01:27:42,240 --> 01:27:43,800
and vote goes

1160
01:27:43,800 --> 01:27:46,320
i'm just gonna go on live television

1161
01:27:46,320 --> 01:27:51,200
and hack into it i'm gonna have chip hack into every single camera like screen

1162
01:27:51,200 --> 01:27:52,160
yeah in the city

1163
01:27:52,160 --> 01:27:53,520
he pulls a ridler

1164
01:27:53,520 --> 01:27:55,240
this message and he goes

1165
01:27:55,240 --> 01:27:56,260
hey

1166
01:27:56,260 --> 01:27:58,440
uh... night lights fully innocent

1167
01:27:58,440 --> 01:27:59,820
i lied

1168
01:27:59,820 --> 01:28:03,840
and commit and like accused of all these things also accuses d r t of having

1169
01:28:03,840 --> 01:28:04,880
kidnapped

1170
01:28:04,880 --> 01:28:05,880
spassion's family

1171
01:28:05,880 --> 01:28:09,920
yeah i asked him when he was doing this i said hey so i i get confessing on

1172
01:28:09,920 --> 01:28:14,000
live television that like uh... it wasn't nightlight it was like it was me

1173
01:28:14,000 --> 01:28:17,960
you're like it was really nightlight or i was just trying to do whatever

1174
01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,400
i said how much do you tell them

1175
01:28:20,400 --> 01:28:23,680
because you also have all this information now about d r t and if

1176
01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:26,640
you're going on live television doing this to yourself and you're already

1177
01:28:26,640 --> 01:28:29,640
you've already lost your job with d r t

1178
01:28:29,640 --> 01:28:30,880
uh... and i've

1179
01:28:30,880 --> 01:28:34,120
shouldn't have even mentioned this i think i'm the one that gave me idea

1180
01:28:34,120 --> 01:28:37,960
how much of their dirty laundry would you like to air now that you have

1181
01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:39,600
every one

1182
01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:41,600
screen he says all of it

1183
01:28:41,600 --> 01:28:45,880
uh... so you know that all of it all of it like you tell them about the the

1184
01:28:45,880 --> 01:28:48,640
parts in the family and he go yeah

1185
01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:49,880
every bit

1186
01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:51,320
uh... fun fact

1187
01:28:51,320 --> 01:28:54,240
just give you a little a little bit inside our knowledge here d r t did not

1188
01:28:54,240 --> 01:28:56,000
kidnapped spassion's family

1189
01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:57,640
as prodigal

1190
01:28:57,640 --> 01:29:00,640
prodigal did that shit to fuck with them and they were never able to

1191
01:29:00,640 --> 01:29:03,520
investigate that figure out if that was the case

1192
01:29:03,520 --> 01:29:06,920
so had bigger fish that was unequivocally fucking false

1193
01:29:06,920 --> 01:29:11,400
so he uses the r t the standing militaries less f b i have kidnapping

1194
01:29:11,400 --> 01:29:12,760
civilians

1195
01:29:12,760 --> 01:29:16,000
and of um... designing and turning on

1196
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:18,740
bots that will kill people

1197
01:29:18,740 --> 01:29:20,380
a lot of people

1198
01:29:20,380 --> 01:29:22,720
so was the r t do i roll for this

1199
01:29:22,720 --> 01:29:26,560
they shut down power in the city your t goes martial law

1200
01:29:26,560 --> 01:29:28,440
they said okay

1201
01:29:28,440 --> 01:29:29,800
uh...

1202
01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:34,280
we are going to turn off everything i think your character and also jumps in

1203
01:29:34,280 --> 01:29:38,320
on this and is like a here's also shit to back up i asked the place at the

1204
01:29:38,320 --> 01:29:42,440
table i said okay guys i'm about to throw up right now we are going balls to

1205
01:29:42,440 --> 01:29:44,960
the wall correct that everyone went

1206
01:29:44,960 --> 01:29:46,880
and that's about how we sounded

1207
01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:50,920
uh... and i said cool she tweets out which she's had a strong social media

1208
01:29:50,920 --> 01:29:53,280
presence is whole time that's a big part of her character

1209
01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:55,600
she tweets out the pictures the processor center

1210
01:29:55,600 --> 01:29:58,920
uh... she gets fucking wiped for the internet there is no trace that night

1211
01:29:58,920 --> 01:30:02,200
light or blackout have ever exist nightlight blackout

1212
01:30:02,200 --> 01:30:04,840
or daisy dents have ever fucking existed

1213
01:30:04,840 --> 01:30:06,760
come here

1214
01:30:06,760 --> 01:30:09,960
that all the information the processor gives her which is basically a bunch of

1215
01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:11,840
shit that nobody should have had

1216
01:30:11,840 --> 01:30:16,080
uh... and yet d r t hops on that shit immediately

1217
01:30:16,080 --> 01:30:19,680
takes that offer social media removes any presence she has ever had from the

1218
01:30:19,680 --> 01:30:25,480
internet and basically blacklist her from all of the social media sites

1219
01:30:25,480 --> 01:30:29,000
this is the this is at the point where i'm like cool d r t just continues to

1220
01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:31,600
take a laughter at what we do i roll for it

1221
01:30:31,600 --> 01:30:33,160
is marshal off

1222
01:30:33,160 --> 01:30:35,240
they shut off power to the city

1223
01:30:35,240 --> 01:30:36,300
they remove

1224
01:30:36,300 --> 01:30:41,480
wifi access they uh... basically institute a curfew they say

1225
01:30:41,480 --> 01:30:44,480
this is gonna last until we find the people that are responsible for this

1226
01:30:44,480 --> 01:30:46,320
because this is terrorism

1227
01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:50,360
this is just straight up terrorism this is an attack on the city government

1228
01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:52,400
uh...

1229
01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,960
terrorism terrorism more terrorism if you are caught eating a betting said

1230
01:30:55,960 --> 01:30:57,720
terrorist you're also a terrorist

1231
01:30:57,720 --> 01:31:00,160
and then turns on all the bots

1232
01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:01,800
and then uh... the party

1233
01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:02,880
splits up

1234
01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:05,920
and they do not see each other for several years so we took a hiatus

1235
01:31:05,920 --> 01:31:10,280
and uh... went on a fun field trip to florida first

1236
01:31:10,280 --> 01:31:11,800
for winter break

1237
01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:16,720
uh... and i talk to literally everybody that entire time and said what the fuck

1238
01:31:16,720 --> 01:31:19,040
you i do this

1239
01:31:19,040 --> 01:31:20,280
uh...

1240
01:31:20,280 --> 01:31:24,120
and then we uh... we talked about the two part of the we talked about the

1241
01:31:24,120 --> 01:31:26,800
time skip in the other if we want to gloss over

1242
01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:27,900
yeah i'll hit

1243
01:31:27,900 --> 01:31:30,420
i'll hit uh... top points so

1244
01:31:30,420 --> 01:31:33,360
i decide that what i'm gonna go with

1245
01:31:33,360 --> 01:31:36,480
if you haven't listened to it i won't spoil entirely i'll do the natural

1246
01:31:36,480 --> 01:31:39,640
progression uh... i follow this through

1247
01:31:39,640 --> 01:31:41,520
i follow this through

1248
01:31:41,520 --> 01:31:42,760
i said cool

1249
01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:44,160
uh...

1250
01:31:44,160 --> 01:31:46,800
what happens to this world

1251
01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:52,960
uh... not good not great uh... d r t is bad ten used to put out more bots

1252
01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:53,960
shocked

1253
01:31:53,960 --> 01:31:56,440
uh... continues to put out more and more bots

1254
01:31:56,440 --> 01:32:01,240
uh... they kill a lot of people they get back at this one point oh slash chip

1255
01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:04,760
uh... chip d arms nightlight in a conflict which was

1256
01:32:04,760 --> 01:32:07,160
a moment that literally had several

1257
01:32:07,160 --> 01:32:08,720
players in tears

1258
01:32:08,720 --> 01:32:11,320
uh... right about it again the other day

1259
01:32:11,320 --> 01:32:14,360
we're downstairs talk about it yeah like that is a moment deeply affected

1260
01:32:14,360 --> 01:32:15,360
every book

1261
01:32:15,360 --> 01:32:18,120
here's my reasoning i that was a deeply traumatic

1262
01:32:18,120 --> 01:32:20,480
session for all of us me included

1263
01:32:20,480 --> 01:32:24,960
i wanted i'm a huge consequences to your action dm because i think that is

1264
01:32:24,960 --> 01:32:28,800
one of the more fun ways to have a world and to make it more realistic which is

1265
01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:33,040
everything you do has a equal and opposite reaction

1266
01:32:33,040 --> 01:32:37,360
i decided that the only real way to teach my players a lesson

1267
01:32:37,360 --> 01:32:40,400
was to go full consequences to your actions

1268
01:32:40,400 --> 01:32:43,640
uh... this is the world that you all left it in this is the world that we're

1269
01:32:43,640 --> 01:32:46,200
gonna finish in before we reset

1270
01:32:46,200 --> 01:32:50,280
uh... i open the session with in none of your characters are expected to live

1271
01:32:50,280 --> 01:32:53,080
i want you all understand that what's gonna happen for the rest of the session

1272
01:32:53,080 --> 01:32:56,360
is not gonna be fun for anybody including myself but this is where we're at

1273
01:32:56,360 --> 01:32:56,880
now

1274
01:32:56,880 --> 01:32:58,920
was one of the most fun games ever played i was

1275
01:32:58,920 --> 01:33:01,280
fucking phenomenal i don't think i can ever top it

1276
01:33:01,280 --> 01:33:03,240
uh...

1277
01:33:03,240 --> 01:33:04,760
high notes

1278
01:33:04,760 --> 01:33:06,800
uh... they get a bomb

1279
01:33:06,800 --> 01:33:09,440
volt comes back teams up with prodigal

1280
01:33:09,440 --> 01:33:11,180
nightlight leads all the superheroes

1281
01:33:11,180 --> 01:33:12,640
searches guys

1282
01:33:12,640 --> 01:33:16,280
surges in a nightly dies whatever uh... we fix their death

1283
01:33:16,280 --> 01:33:18,080
surges in a wheelchair

1284
01:33:18,080 --> 01:33:21,800
more or less in a coma for effort trying to recover her strength d r t takes

1285
01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:23,760
over the entire city

1286
01:33:23,760 --> 01:33:27,440
it's villains and heroes team and up together it's raining you know

1287
01:33:27,440 --> 01:33:30,720
it was dogs the the whole nine yards so much

1288
01:33:30,720 --> 01:33:33,960
they make a final plan with all of the remaining members of the superheroes and

1289
01:33:33,960 --> 01:33:37,880
supervillains to basically push d r t one last time take out the like control

1290
01:33:37,880 --> 01:33:40,640
center for all the bots

1291
01:33:40,640 --> 01:33:41,920
everybody lives

1292
01:33:41,920 --> 01:33:45,080
they're in a lot of it pretty much all the mpc's died but all of our player

1293
01:33:45,080 --> 01:33:49,040
characters actually make it to the very ends they get the bomb up to the top

1294
01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:49,920
uh...

1295
01:33:49,920 --> 01:33:51,600
they get chip back

1296
01:33:51,600 --> 01:33:56,840
that was really just sad and fun awful and great to watch wildest fire

1297
01:33:56,840 --> 01:34:01,880
uh... nightlight and ship have a uh... one v one in that shit was fucking

1298
01:34:01,880 --> 01:34:03,460
nuts

1299
01:34:03,460 --> 01:34:05,800
uh... absolutely insane

1300
01:34:05,800 --> 01:34:09,240
we had somebody role-lawyering on the side and that is truly the only reason

1301
01:34:09,240 --> 01:34:13,720
that the combat encounter did not go more poorly

1302
01:34:13,720 --> 01:34:18,880
long long long story short super long depressing session short uh... the bomb

1303
01:34:18,880 --> 01:34:21,920
goes off at the top of d r t's tower

1304
01:34:21,920 --> 01:34:24,600
uh... whatever player characters dies fault

1305
01:34:24,600 --> 01:34:26,920
who made all of the wonderful city decisions

1306
01:34:26,920 --> 01:34:28,400
did chiple

1307
01:34:28,400 --> 01:34:32,240
yeah chiple out building and watch it explode chip i mean chiple's

1308
01:34:32,240 --> 01:34:36,200
okay chip up into the ethereal plane basically and then watched

1309
01:34:36,200 --> 01:34:38,520
and then face back in a little way

1310
01:34:38,520 --> 01:34:39,800
wildest

1311
01:34:39,800 --> 01:34:43,760
yet she goes i actually want to watch henry burn

1312
01:34:43,760 --> 01:34:46,360
pops of the ethereal and watches henry burn

1313
01:34:46,360 --> 01:34:47,600
uh...

1314
01:34:47,600 --> 01:34:49,720
and that's how that timeline ends

1315
01:34:49,720 --> 01:34:51,880
volt goes to volt heaven

1316
01:34:51,880 --> 01:34:55,240
where all of the people that have had his power before him because his

1317
01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:56,600
character

1318
01:34:56,600 --> 01:35:00,960
sort of like his classes uh... inherited so he's like a thwart type he basically

1319
01:35:00,960 --> 01:35:02,720
goes and meets all the other like

1320
01:35:02,720 --> 01:35:05,600
lightning slash electricity wielders that have had his power before him and

1321
01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:06,720
they go hey

1322
01:35:06,720 --> 01:35:08,280
uh... we thought

1323
01:35:08,280 --> 01:35:12,120
that was it and you are just gonna suck forever but you did maybe kind of a

1324
01:35:12,120 --> 01:35:13,560
cool thing here

1325
01:35:13,560 --> 01:35:16,520
so we're gonna give you one chance

1326
01:35:16,520 --> 01:35:19,880
one chance we're gonna drop you back

1327
01:35:19,880 --> 01:35:21,320
way back

1328
01:35:21,320 --> 01:35:24,160
right before you made the worst mistake in your life

1329
01:35:24,160 --> 01:35:28,440
and we're gonna give you a second chance we pop back in right before he goes

1330
01:35:28,440 --> 01:35:32,840
superhero box

1331
01:35:32,840 --> 01:35:35,840
says we're gonna in today's session because it is

1332
01:35:35,840 --> 01:35:37,040
one in the morning

1333
01:35:37,040 --> 01:35:40,960
yeah i have working about seven hours which part is a bonus episode yeah

1334
01:35:40,960 --> 01:35:44,320
bonus episode something uh... so what's gonna happen over the next couple

1335
01:35:44,320 --> 01:35:47,280
of the services will do some character creation where myself and madison will

1336
01:35:47,280 --> 01:35:51,200
make two more characters to play in this universe and then episode ten will be

1337
01:35:51,200 --> 01:35:55,800
another sort of every five episode one shot will do the first half of a a long

1338
01:35:55,800 --> 01:35:59,760
ish one shot kind of like we did with the the first one in kids on bikes

1339
01:35:59,760 --> 01:36:01,560
inside sapphire city

1340
01:36:01,560 --> 01:36:05,640
uh... where i will not probably hopefully if i can manage it mention a

1341
01:36:05,640 --> 01:36:08,960
single fucking character from the original campaign because i would love to

1342
01:36:08,960 --> 01:36:10,640
not

1343
01:36:10,640 --> 01:36:11,640
so

1344
01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:16,400
they exist don't get me wrong but we're not interacting with any of them

1345
01:36:16,400 --> 01:36:19,240
yeah why they do a bonus episode or uh...

1346
01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:20,440
or down on a

1347
01:36:20,440 --> 01:36:23,800
but i don't part two at some point but that is the original

1348
01:36:23,800 --> 01:36:25,320
first half

1349
01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:27,520
essentially of the campaign

1350
01:36:27,520 --> 01:36:32,520
it starts fine and cool and superhero and then it just fucking

1351
01:36:32,520 --> 01:36:33,880
so that's

1352
01:36:33,880 --> 01:36:36,080
literally

1353
01:36:36,080 --> 01:36:37,800
that's an

1354
01:36:37,800 --> 01:36:43,800
our basis also built on a bomb that's just a side note

1355
01:36:43,800 --> 01:36:46,280
the person who plays jep got really into minecraft

1356
01:36:46,280 --> 01:36:48,840
and how to do chemistry and physics

1357
01:36:48,840 --> 01:36:52,120
through minecraft

1358
01:36:52,120 --> 01:36:56,520
and i let him make a couple of tech checks which is a new religion jack in

1359
01:36:56,520 --> 01:36:59,120
this universe and

1360
01:36:59,120 --> 01:37:01,960
he built a hydrogen bomb

1361
01:37:01,960 --> 01:37:06,120
well hydrogen reactor but you know you can turn anything that makes electricity

1362
01:37:06,120 --> 01:37:08,640
or generates power into a bomb

1363
01:37:08,640 --> 01:37:11,880
so that's what everyone calls it now the hydrogen bomb that's actually what

1364
01:37:11,880 --> 01:37:16,000
uh... that's their plan b in the alternative timeline is to set off the

1365
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:20,960
bomb in the base and take out as many bots with them as humanly possible

1366
01:37:20,960 --> 01:37:22,800
which doesn't happen

1367
01:37:22,800 --> 01:37:25,320
because they actually have a

1368
01:37:25,320 --> 01:37:30,600
separate easy to all of the other mpc's happy to be clear shadow turned into a

1369
01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:36,040
uh... literal monster money for the people demon at the end of this like in

1370
01:37:36,040 --> 01:37:40,080
the in this world of presumably goes on he had to be put down by his teammates

1371
01:37:40,080 --> 01:37:43,240
in a really fucked up way of like we've got to kill the dog

1372
01:37:43,240 --> 01:37:47,960
because the dog has rabies he goes full terrorist in between the end of the one

1373
01:37:47,960 --> 01:37:50,960
session in the beginning of the flashpoint session like

1374
01:37:50,960 --> 01:37:54,840
full terrorist he is executing d r t members on live television he is

1375
01:37:54,840 --> 01:37:58,560
consuming them like their energy not like their physical body

1376
01:37:58,560 --> 01:38:01,880
he basically turned himself into an energy vampire and goes full

1377
01:38:01,880 --> 01:38:04,800
yeah fucking oh my god what's that one movie v from indetta

1378
01:38:04,800 --> 01:38:07,760
yeah like full that but way worse yeah

1379
01:38:07,760 --> 01:38:09,520
way worse

1380
01:38:09,520 --> 01:38:12,800
shows up to the to the full team meeting and everyone pulls out a gun is like

1381
01:38:12,800 --> 01:38:13,680
hey

1382
01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:18,080
we're bad guys don't get me wrong you eat mother fuckers we're not

1383
01:38:18,080 --> 01:38:20,480
like their members of the splice circle who run

1384
01:38:20,480 --> 01:38:25,720
prostitution rings they pull out guns and go hey you're a bad guy

1385
01:38:25,720 --> 01:38:28,040
i don't really know what's here

1386
01:38:28,040 --> 01:38:31,400
you look at the other extremes of the team and i like it become

1387
01:38:31,400 --> 01:38:33,800
the hero

1388
01:38:33,800 --> 01:38:36,040
shadow is the terrorist

1389
01:38:36,040 --> 01:38:37,520
sebastian

1390
01:38:37,520 --> 01:38:38,920
the sebastian

1391
01:38:38,920 --> 01:38:43,400
he's not like now he he's a bastion goes fully in the opposite direction the guy

1392
01:38:43,400 --> 01:38:47,280
he drops the hero thing fully and he's just like i'm gonna be a person that

1393
01:38:47,280 --> 01:38:48,640
helps my neighborhood

1394
01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:52,600
yeah both shack it up a prodigal chip is now atlas

1395
01:38:52,600 --> 01:38:54,680
uh he's a part of the millennial group

1396
01:38:54,680 --> 01:38:56,600
yeah

1397
01:38:56,600 --> 01:38:59,840
inferno turncoats never found out why that happened

1398
01:38:59,840 --> 01:39:01,440
yeah

1399
01:39:01,440 --> 01:39:02,760
it was all bad

1400
01:39:02,760 --> 01:39:04,440
it was truly

1401
01:39:04,440 --> 01:39:06,800
all bad

1402
01:39:06,800 --> 01:39:11,240
i think parker lived every single person at the table cried

1403
01:39:11,240 --> 01:39:13,480
over the course of that session more than once

1404
01:39:13,480 --> 01:39:16,520
you live jury lived at any other in pcs live

1405
01:39:16,520 --> 01:39:17,720
uh...

1406
01:39:17,720 --> 01:39:19,560
parker lived jury live

1407
01:39:19,560 --> 01:39:20,920
i didn't

1408
01:39:20,920 --> 01:39:24,400
i never really decided what happened with surgeon for no and rebelling when

1409
01:39:24,400 --> 01:39:25,000
he

1410
01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:28,360
