warlock level 3. Well, you're also a special
aren't you like a yeah, I have a blood scythe
packed blood side So we're using a homebrew stuff
that we found to for the vampire stuff stuff
stuff sounds off or different. That's probably
why What's up guys? It's Ryan Hart. I'm back
for a special episode and Playing Vladimir tootin
Level 3 blood hunter vampire blood hunter vampire.
All right And I am Tristan Hayes. I'm the dummy
master. I'm going to be playing people who don't
like vampires. So let's get into D &D. All right.
So... Blah, blah, blah, blah. Blah, blah, blah,
blah. Map is open. I want the map. Where we begin
this journey. You three vampires. You guys are
in a well -established... You know this place
very well. It's a giant... What would you call
this? prison torture uh feeding chamber area
giant vampire lair we'll call it that dungeon
but as your memory recalls because you're a little
hazy right now as you're coming to because everything
just is is off in this place uh you wake up and
you're behind bars inside of your own vampire
lair you look outside of these bars and you are
seeing these kind of like holy warriors kind
of standing outside of these gates um vladimir
tootin There van sickle is next to you. You guys
are in two separate cages on the West side least
west side once again carrying cross You are on
the east side with the warrior standing in front
of you as well as holy warrior You can tell they're
like they've got the shining white Crusader type
people What would you guys like to do? You can
tell that something bad has happened inside your
vampire lair and you guys are held captive inside
of your own cages I will look around the cage.
Okay. Give me a perception check. As you hear,
uh, uh, Vera screaming from down to the, the,
the way. Let's see. Let me check. See if I got
any more perception. You said I set my shit up.
Three? You're still a little hazy from where
the attack had happened on your guys' lair. So
you're looking kind of past this guy, and all
you're really seeing through the, obviously,
darkness of your own lair is some bodies kind
of just laying on the ground outside of other
vampires. I'm going to look around now that I've
calmed down some. Yeah, so when you scream that,
what did you yell at them? Let me out of here,
you pieces of shit! This warrior kind of turns
around and he kind of does this like, boom, boom,
like slams his shield and sword down. And he
goes, you are the piece of shit, madam. We are
here to cleanse your shitty people. And then
he just kind of like turns back around and looks
forward. He goes, our lord will be giving us
instructions soon enough to know what to do with
you. So he's a vampire hater. uh look around
and see if i can gain any knowledge on what the
to do um give me perception check 15 15. okay
so as you look out through the gates and stuff
you're noticing that there's only two warriors
standing near you there's one right outside your
gate and one straight to the side outside of
Vladimir's gate I'm gonna give you a little something
here because perception wise you wouldn't know
much but since you know this layer I'll say that
you know that once you cut around the corner
here is your way back to a blood pool and to
some torture chambers so you've got kind of a
idea of where to go but you there's there's other
work going on here because you can tell that
the usual blood fueled power that's working through
this place isn't quite pulsing quite as good.
So with your perception check, I'll say you're
noticing that your blood magic is not flowing
as strong through this place. So you know that
your blood pool is to the north of where you're
at and to the south is kind of this broken path
that you know is ran through magic. So what would
you like to do? I don't really know what to do.
Vladimir's next to me. What's he thinking? What's
Vladimir thinking? You got nothing? What are
you, Vladimir? Are you strong enough to break
these freaking doors? I doubt it. You know we
can hear you, right? You talk these fools into
letting us out so we can freaking do something
about this? Is this charisma any good? Probably
not. No. Okay, so with you guys not having any
idea of what to do... uh you see this little
um i don't know what you call him uh just kind
of a smaller like he's running with no armor
and he comes running around the corner and he
goes guys guys okay guys i know we're holy and
all and so i'm here to help uh tell you what
to do the lord sent me with instructions and
he kind of whispers to this guy's uh ear so vladimir
and vera give me a perception check to try and
listen in to what this guy is like five Yes.
Yes. It's been a while. Shit. It's been a while.
High five. Wow. Yeah, you guys don't hear what
he says. So he whispers some stuff into this
guy's ear and he kind of nods and does this holy...
Can you read his lips? No. He does this holy
salute thing and turns around and Vera, he opens
your gate and he starts to yank you out of this
cage. Are you going to do anything or are you
just going to let him yank you out? I say, what
the fuck are you doing? I'm taking you to the
first test and he starts dragging you north give
me a Constitution save as he drags you past this
blood pool a constitution say yeah Not one not
one Wow so this blood pool you go dragging by
this blood pool, and you feel this like over
overpowering need to drink that blood and uh
with your body needing it so badly this dude
just yanks you away from it and you're like like
start having like this almost mini seizure because
you've been denied this blood so within that
one you're not able to fight what he's about
to do to you um so he drags you around this corner
and uh do i still have my dagger on me no you
don't uh so he drags you around this corner and
you're noticing other other vampires of yours
that kind of just uh Wait, no, sorry. You're
seeing normal people inside of cages that were
people that were starting to turn to vampires.
But ahead of you, you see a much stronger, bigger
warrior kind of standing there proud, and she's
got this vampire familiar strapped to this table,
and it's just stretching him, and she's like
cranking it more and more, and he's just screaming.
There's a dude on the ground that's just ripped
in half already, another vampire. And she goes,
are you going to give us... instructions of how
to shut down this infernal place and he's like
no I'm not gonna do it and then you just see
her crank it again he just rips in half and she
kind of folds his body off turns around and she
goes bring her forward me you think I know how
to shut down this place I don't know what the
fuck goes around around here so I should go ahead
and rip you in half now throws you onto this
table and you see the guard kind that brought
you walk away so she kind of throws you down
she says I'm gonna strap you into this I can
tell that you're weak from not drinking blood
so you're gonna give me the instructions on how
to shut down this inferno place I couldn't if
you give me a chance but it looks like you're
about to rip me in half so this Kelly give me
a history check already about to be ripped in
half and to do a history check Seven plus two.
Nine. So all you really remember, because you
haven't been fully ran through this place. You're
not like high level super wizard. Super vampire.
Yeah, super vampire. So all you really can remember
is that this place is powered through blood.
Yeah, all I know right now is I'm thirsty. All
you know is you're thirsty. All right, let's
give it a crank. And she does one big crank.
Give me a constitution save. She starts cranking
you. Cranking you off. 16. Okay, you save from
the damage that your body kind of like... It
just feels like some bones popping a little bit.
I mean, I'm a vampire. She goes, okay, so are
you going to tell me any instructions on how
to shut down this place? Because all you scream
so far is that you're thirsty. I wrote a history
check. What did that do? It told you that this
place is powered through blood magic. And that's
all you got. Because you didn't get a very high
history check. Okay, okay, okay. First off, the
way my brain works is I need to have a drink
of that blood so I can get my brain working,
so I can unlock my memories, so I can tell you.
Okay, roll me persuasion check. Persuasion? Yeah.
With advantage? No. Seven? Seven? She goes, no,
no, no, no. That's not how vampires work. Listen,
we've killed so many of you. How do you know
how I work? Your memories don't work through
blood. You're just weak because you haven't had
blood. Your memories are fine. I'm too weak to
think. You're going to get one more chance to
tell me what you know and how this place is ran
and how to shut it down. What can you tell me?
Anything? Or do I need to rip you in half? I
can tell you to go get my partner and he'll tell
you. Oh, my God. Okay, so she goes, you know
what? I will. I will go get him so he can watch
you be ripped in half. Okay. Yeah, so you could
have just told her that there was power through
blood. Why? You want to get ripped in half? That's
fine. She's not going to let me have any then.
All right, Duke. Or Duke. Shit. Carrion Cross,
we're going to go to you as they go to gather
the other ones. So the same thing kind of happens
with this guard outside of yours. Carrion Cross.
You look outside this gate and this little shriveled
guy just kind of comes running up and he tells
whispers in his ear. Do you want to try to listen
to what he's whispering in his ear? Yes. Okay,
roll me perception. Six. You don't hear what
he says. So the guard kind of stomps and does
the whole like, yes, and holy shit, and turns
around and unlocks your gate and starts to drag
you. Anything you want to do on this dragging?
You know, by doing this fucking neck. Okay, so
you're going to try to do the bite. How does
it work? Let me hear it. I'll have to see. Let's
see. I forgot I could bite. I'm a vampire. You
make a melee attack that involves using your
body to deal the falling effects. Make an attack
roll against the creature. On hit, you deal one
damage plus strength plus any damage. So it's
just an attack roll, really? Mm -hmm. Yeah, and
then they're grappled after that. I guess okay.
Yeah, go for it. Make it a make it a fight effect
No modifier girl 13 13 to hit these guys You
hit all right? That is 2d 6, okay? 6 4 so 10
damage Okay, so you sink your teeth into this
dude as he starts to drag you you reach up and
just like full -blown deep fang his throat and
He's like And you just begin to drink and drink
until he falls to the ground So one man is not
vanquished through your bite. Do you get anything
special if you kill them with a bite? Just reading
more It is a once per day action to do that,
right? Yeah. Okay. Well it worked because you
killed the guard taking you immediately so Let's
see, I mean he could try to escape well each
turn, but he has to make it. Oh, well, never
mind Drink his stuff. Yeah, he's drinking drinking.
He's dead Yeah, it says I'm a full health. I
don't think it any life terrain matters He's
dead as he kind of just drops to the ground as
this dude. What would you like to do to your?
West you can see the guard standing outside of
Vladimir tootin's cage and you heard Vera screaming
from down there to be let out so you know that
they are that direction North is the blood pool
and the blacksmiths area. So what would you like
to do? Hmm And that was not a guard still next
to where I was not that you can see there's no
guards like Visible only the one visible is the
one standing to your west in front of Vladimir
tootin's I'm guessing I'm not so foggy of mind
now Yeah. After sucking a guy dry. You drink
that new dry, you're clear -headed, you're ready
to go. I'll just go after that one guard. One
guard? Okay. What are you going to do here? Because
you've used your action, so... I don't see him
on the map at all. Who? Oh, there he is. I mean,
how closely can I reach all the way to him? I
didn't think about that. He is, no, he is like
80 feet from you. Yeah, that's what I figured.
Okay. And yeah, I'll just use my bonus action
to summon my blood scythe. Oh, yeah. Okay, so
you just... Your scythe kind of comes to form.
Okay, so you're just going to hold out then right
here? Yeah. Okay, then we'll go to Vladimir Tutin.
So, this guard outside your cage, you see the
other guard come around the corner. And he goes,
uh... They want this one brought because they
want to show an example of ripping this other
one in half. She won't give any information,
so let's bring him. Now, yank you out of this
cage, these two guards, and start to drag you.
Anything you want to do special before you get
dragged? Or do you want to get to Vera before
you do something? How do you want to do this?
What do you want to play out? They're dragging
me towards him right now, aren't they? Towards
her, where she's strapped into the stretchy,
ripping half table. Because they want to... Because
she said to bring her friend. to give you information
and she said yes i'll bring him to watch him
watch you get ripped in half so so if i make
it down there then there's three people right
yes there will be three yes yeah i think i'll
just uh try to it these two guys up okay all
right uh what are you gonna do just give me an
attacker uh yeah i'll try to buy one of them
okay give me a bite uh 18 plus two so we'll definitely
buy one yes Bunch of vampires. Lighten it up.
Not me, I'm dumb. Yep. Eight. Eight? Yep. Uh,
yeah, you stick him and you're just, like, trying
to get a good drink and he's like, oh, fuck,
ouch. And he has, like, a little bit, he's hurting,
you can tell he's shriveling, his knees are shaking,
but, um, as you stick him, his guard next to
him, he goes, oh, fuck, this would just, hey,
hey, everybody! This one just bit this guy. He's
fighting back. And you see the stronger woman
that was torturing Vera come running around the
corner and start to make her way towards you.
So roll me initiative. All of you. Not me. Yes.
All right, so what was the initiatives? We both
had 10, but his was a higher base roll. Okay,
so... I had 18. 10. Vera is an 18. Okay. Let
me roll for these foods. Okay. That's a 10. There's
no initiative bonus, so I'm assuming you got
to go for it. That is 14 for the second. And
then the big one gets an 8 plus 3. So, okay.
Start to the sitcom back. Vera Van Sickle, you
are up first. I am strapped into this. You are
strapped to a table. You can do a strength or
a dexterity check to try and break out or wiggle
out. I will definitely do that. They're like
leather belt straps holding you in all bloody.
Four. Your wrists hurt and you're crying. Four?
Four dexterity. You failed fucking bad. You wiggle
so fucking hard and they feel tighter. That was
your turn. It's the warrior that you bit. The
guard that you bit. It's his turn, so he's going
to make... Warrior has advantage on an attack
roll against a creature if at least one of the
warrior allies is within five feet So he's gonna
pull out his uh, he's got a spear I guess so
a spear and shield if he's carrying Is a 16 plus
3 gonna hit yes It is six no that's five damage
to you But that's all he gets so This chick,
it's the big ballast's turn, the veteran. But
she's got to use all of her movement speed to
get right behind the guards that were there fighting
you. So that was her turn. Carrion Cross, not
the wrestler. Your turn. Not the wrestler, the
vampire. Let's clarify. Yes. You are, let me
see exactly how far you are from them. So you're
about there. Jeez Louise. Yeah, you're about
80 feet fuck a duck so big old vampire land Let's
see have any vampire effects Like running yeah,
like can I run on the ceiling or do some crazy
shit? Nope, I just like people okay Well fuck
I guess I'm gonna use Dash in my normal movements
for you to all the one get the whole shebang
Alright, so let's say that's about 60 feet. So
yeah, you run past the main entrance to your
lair, and you look down to the south, and you
see that that area is clear, the entrance area.
There are two dead bodies slaughtered on the
ground, vampire bodies, but you are about 30
feet from them now. You see the two guards, and
you see Vladimir Tutin. and a veteran warrior
behind them. All right. That's it, right? I don't
know if you got any long -range stuff. I had
to use all my movement bonus. Let's see. I might
have something. Let's see. I don't know how many
turns it'll last. Do you have spells? Yes. Are
you a warlord? Yes. Okay. I'm still not in range
for them. I'm 30 foot away. All right. So, yeah,
you're 30 foot. Your spells, you're not in range
for your spells? Well, that was my action and
bonus action. Oh shit, that was. Well, it was
your action because Dash is just an action in
Dash, so you still have your bonus action. I
don't know if there's anything you can do. But
yeah, I think Dash is just one action. Well,
that means I couldn't use Mage Armor. Because
it's an action. Oh. Did you use it? I tried.
Bucket. You used Mage Armory and you dashed.
That's your turn. Okay. We'll go with that. All
right. Vitamir Tootin, it is your turn. You got
a bit guard, another guard next to him, and then
the veteran behind him. I think I'm going to
try to take out the guy I already bit. You do
not have your weapons. So you have your bite,
but you are unarmed attacks. But yeah, you don't
have your weapons on you. Well, shit. I'm really
the only person with a weapon. Yeah, as I say,
carrying is a summon reaper, right? Well, I'm
still going to attack the dude that's already
weak. Okay, yeah, you can do a bite, which I
think is 1d4 plus strength. So you're going to
bite the one that's weak? Yeah. Okay, give me
an attack roll, d20. 6 plus 2, so 8. Nope, that
won't do it. Well, fuck. All right. Let's see.
Okay, it's the other warrior's turn. Let's see
what he's got here. Okay, he's going to take
a spear attack as you as well, Vladimir Tutin.
Oh, great. Yeah, he missed. Hell yeah. He missed,
for sure. Let's see then. Next up, Vera, your
turn. You're still strapped to the table. Yeah,
I've got to try and get free again. You're going
to do another dexterity check? Yeah. Fifteen.
Yes, I'll say you're able to wiggle out. Slither.
Slither out of that thing. You saw her run. Back
the way you came, so... What? Hold on, my map
won't come up. I'm going to have to reload it.
It keeps telling me it has problems. They are
about 40 feet from you. 50 feet from you. From
where you're at. How close is the blood? Oh,
the blood pool? It is about 25 feet. So I'm going
to go slurp up some blood pool. Okay, slurp up
some blood pool. You drink the blood and you
are back to normal. You're feeling good and fueled.
You're not thirsty. Yeah, you're not thirsty.
You're not going to get weak. I think that's
more what it is. If you don't drink, then a thing's
happening. So yeah, you're good. What would you
like to do? You see a veteran in front of you
with two guards and Vladimir Tutin on the other
side. How much further can I move? How much movement
speed do you have? Five feet left. So you can't
get close enough yet. They are still about 20
feet, 15 feet from you. Then I guess I'm just
going to wait it out. Waiting it out. Make sure
I'm safe. The warrior that you had took a chunk
out of his neck. He fails. You're lucky. You're
lucky. It's the veteran's turn, and she can't
even make it to you, so she turns around, and
she goes, you bitch! Get back in your table!
And she's going to make an attack roll at you,
Vera. Too bad. Let's see here. Ten plus five?
Yep. Four. Plus two. Six damage. Six what kind
of damage? Slashing. Rude. Slicing. Bitch slapping.
Yes, bitch slapping damage. Carrying cross. Yes.
Your turn. Not the wrestler. Not the wrestler.
Not the wrestler, guys. Vampires. We're vampires.
You're about, let's see, 35? Let's see if it's
30 foot then I Guess it don't matter. I'm still
gonna go about 30 foot movement. Okay 30 foot
to them Yes, okay You're right up next to the
guard that has a chunk out of his neck and he's
shaking need You're seeing the chaos in my insight
swinging distance. Oh, yeah, they're like exactly
that much from you. So lovely I'll be doing that
Scythe swinging distance. We'll try to reap him.
He has a form that he can summon. That is a 15
hit. Yes. Let's see. 2d4 plus 3. 3. 3. So 6 plus
9 to his fucking neck. Yeah, he's dead. To his
neck. It's that little bite mark. You just take
it right through with the old scythe and he drops.
I think we know who the alpha is. So, yeah, a
bloody pile just kind of leaks. I didn't think
the sights would be this convenient this early
on. The blood just kind of leaks out of you onto
the floor into your feet. You're just kind of
stepping in it and ready to keep going. Very
nice. All right. Vladimir Tootin, your turn.
Your friend, a fellow vampire, just comes out
of nowhere and decapitated that man. That holy
piece of shit. So now we've got the other one
standing there. Now there's another guard and
then the veteran behind that's going toward this
fighting bear. I think I'm going to go for the
other guy, not the veteran. The guard still in
front of you? Yeah. You're going to go for the
bite? Yeah, I don't have anything. That's okay.
So that would probably be my best option. For
the veteran. Yeah, that was a two. No, that does
not hit. Some things never change. All right,
infantry. He sees you kind of just like decapitate
his friend. He's like oh shit Holy Lord protect
us and he starts to take a spear swing at you
carrying cross He misses ah they're doing bad.
That's a four. That was a real bad one Four with
his pluses still misses okay Vera your turn got
the veteran piece of shit in front of you. I'm
going to Dagger her throat you don't have your
daggers yet. Oh, no, you've got whatever I get
a vampire abilities give you so bite Not even
thirsty anymore and Bite with intent it says
you have that as well. It's a 2d 2d 6 plus 2
So I'm going to bite in with with intent. Okay
her neck out fight with intent roll It's once
per day as well 14 14? Yeah. That won't hit.
She's got armor. She's got armor. Can't use it
anymore. Can't use that one again. Yeah, well,
he got us a normal bite now, so we'll go on to...
Lift it. Next turn. Hey, it was a good try. It
was good to hurt her. But it's her turn. So...
And your bite does nothing. Do I still get my
disengage, like back away from me or anything?
Yeah, if you're a rogue, you still have that
stuff. Okay. I think. Your bonus action disengage?
So I bit her, it didn't work out, I'm going to
get the fuck away from her. Okay, yeah, you can
do that. So you're going to use bonus action
disengage and move full movement speed away?
Yeah. Okay. The classic. Kill me. Whiff it and
run. Whiff it and run. Only she had an invisibility
cloak. That's what I've been thinking. All right,
well, you got away from the safety of being smacked
by that bitch. Yeah, she was gonna slice me again.
Yeah, she was. She sees you run away, and she
pulls out this heavy crossbow from her bag. Bitch!
Pulls a bolt back. Seven plus three. Surely you
survived that. Surely you survived that. All
right, yeah, this bolt just goes... It misses,
yeah. Sticks into the wall next to you, and she
goes, you won't escape me. Carry and cross. Your
turn. Stealer crossbow. He's got a body in front
of him and another guard. How far am I from the
veteran? You can kind of see her around the corner,
but you are 18 feet, exactly. Definitely within
range. I'm going to cast Hold Person. Oh, boy.
Oh, boy. A human who's being hunted by a vampire
is the worst nightmare. What do I got to do?
I got to make a save, don't I? You have to make
the save. Choose a humanoid within range. The
target must succeed. Wisdom saving throw of 13.
I figured she didn't have good wisdom. Or have
the paralyzed condition for the duration. At
the end of each turn, the target repeats the
save, ending the spell on its success. Okay.
I'm going to make me a wisdom save. 15. Wow.
Okay. She has bad wisdom, so you did figure right.
Alright, is that it? Yep. Okay, Vladimir Tutin.
Still got the guard in front of me. Bite, bite.
Yep, we're going to bite this motherfucker. Bite
this motherfucker. Alright, so... 16. Yes, that
one will hit him. That's 1d4, correct? Yes. 4
damage. Plus your strength. Oh, shit, so... Six.
Oh. Six damage. The modifier? Oh, it's six total?
Okay. Yeah. I thought you were saying plus six.
No, no, plus two. So six total damage. Yeah,
you give him a good bite, take a chunk out of
him, he's like, fuck, I won't go down like my
brother. He pulls up his spear to try to shank
you. That's a freaking 19 plus, yeah. Well, that
sucks. That one hits. Alright, let me see his
damage. That sucks. Big time. Two plus... His
is one, so three damage. He sticks you in the
shoulder with a spear. Yeah, I don't know if
my level ones cost a pack slot or not. They might
not. Because they don't say cast, they say at
will next to it. Like my cantors do. Well, they
are like class specific through the entrance.
They probably are like that. They're not super
helpful. I mean the armor is but it lasts for
eight hours. So you just pop it beforehand. Okay,
Vera your turn My turn you're going to dash forward
You're gonna walk you're gonna do your normal
move forward or you're going to dash yes I have
enough movement speed to get there. I know but
I need to be fast and quick for this I'm gonna
try and slide a hand that crossbow out of her
That's just gives you more running distance I'm
gonna try and slide a hand the arrow the crossbow
and arrow Yeah, I guess. Get shot in the face.
Should be an opposed guess. Eleven. So you got
an eight. Or would it be stealth? No, sleight
of hand? No, it wouldn't. Because I'm not being
sneaky. I got eight plus one, so you win that.
Yes. I guess. Yeah, so you come running in and
you just kind of under her and yank the crossbow
between her legs or something and yank it out
from under her. Yeah. Yeah, you took her big
heavy crossbow. yeah you can barely use i don't
care i know that's fine you did you did what
you did so so okay so how much movement speed
i have left but i dashed that's what i meant
i was trying to get there quicker i guess that
doesn't matter it doesn't matter it doesn't matter
that's just doubles your movement speed like
you get 60 feet instead of 30. that's what i
mean because you're doing that that's your action
you're okay i was gonna dash to her Slide a hand
it out of her hand. That's why I kept asking
you over and over, are you using dash to double?
And you were like, no, I'm just trying to move
fast. So what I'm meaning, do you use dash? Well,
because you said I had plenty of movement speed
to get there, so I was like, okay. Okay, so you're
using dash to run to her, try to take the thing.
Slide a hand it from her. And then use your base
movement. And then run back, okay. My run back
is, no, no, no, no. You just did it 180. I'm
not running back, I'm running to... Us, I guess.
Okay, I'm going to give him the weapon. Okay,
so you run you get you get around her Okay, you're
stuck in a hallway with it to Ryan. I'm giving
it to Vladimir tootin Okay, so you're stuck in
a hallway now after you get past this better
really to there's a guard and a dead body and
Vladimir and carry on and the veteran behind
you so You can't really get to them because there's
bodies and a man blocking the doorway so You're
kind of just in this hallway and there's like
two guards and then on the other side of them
is Vladimir and Kurian. You gonna like throw
the crossbow over him or? Yeah. Okay. I'll say,
yo, Vladimir, catch this bitch! Yeah, so you're,
um, I'm gonna say you'll just toss the crossbow,
but it's a matter of if you're wanting to equip
the crossbow, that'll take an action and stuff
next turn, so. It doesn't matter. I'm giving
you a weapon. Would it if he caught it? Caught
it, equipped. Okay, give me dexterity. i mean
i would say if it's caught in hand that would
be equipping through air 14. uh yeah i'll say
you catch that thing you got a little crossbow
i forgot you guys weren't even having weapons
i actually did this so that would be a crossbow
light heavy crossbow heavy that's why i tossed
it to someone else i can't use it i don't know
if you can use it but you can use it you can
use it better than i can so My bones were stretched
out. I'm weak. It's like a strength roll just
to draw it back. It's like, you failed. Ah, next
turn. Well, we tried. Okay. At least she doesn't
have it now. Alright, well, it's her turn. She's
pissed. Yeah, you yank this crossbow from her
and she's like, what the fuck? And she sees you
just run around her and then back down this hallway
and sees you stop because there's a bunch of
guards guarding your way. And she's like, well,
got you between a rock and a meat place and then
comes swinging at you with her sword. She's not
even gonna. That's a 15 plus 5. Oh. Yeah. That
is a 5 plus 2 damage. 7. 7 slicing dice. 7 slicing
damage. Slashing. This ain't no slicing dice.
This is a slash. I dice when I slash. Alright,
carrying cross. It is your turn. Alright. Got
a body bleeding out on the ground. Man still
standing. And a veteran. Question, will the blood
pool heal us? From damage? It makes you stronger,
but it just doesn't. It's more like a hunger
than it is. It just keeps you from starving.
It's like eating food. It doesn't really give
you a bonus, but you don't die if you stop doing
it. Well, you'll get weak if you don't. It's
part of your vampire weakness. We don't eat food
to get powers, but we'll die if we don't do it.
So what ways do we have right now to gain health?
Nothing? Yeah, it's scary. Rest. Yeah, short
rests. But you also know there's enemies, so
you have to find a safe place and do it. So,
do you think you can handle that guard that you've
been fucking up? Uh, well, it says I am proficient
in this heavy crossbow, so. Hell yeah. You can
probably bite him, too, as a normal fighter,
so this is up close. If you're trying to move
forward, you can, but Bear is blocking the hallway.
Well, if I use a spell, I won't have an action,
so I can't swing my scythe. So, that's why I
was wondering. Let's see if I'm gonna do Mind
Sliver or Toll of the Dead. Toll of the Dead's
pretty safe. And it's Wisdom again. Yeah, why
not? Toll of the Dead. Alright. You point at
one creature you can see within range and a single
chime... of a dollar a spell is audible within
10 feet of the target. The target must succeed
on a wisdom saving throw of 13 or take 1d8 necrotic
damage. If the target is missing any of its hit
points, it instead takes 1d12 necrotic damage.
If it's missing any of its hit points? And it
is. Okay. Oh, no, she's not. No, she's not. Then
1d8. Okay. If she fails. Wisdom save tip? Yeah,
of 13. That's quite gay. That is very gay. Alright,
well, uh, yeah. I don't have much bonus action
stuff I can do. I'll bite this motherfucker again.
Chop, chop, chop. 16 again. Very good. Tutor.
And that would be 7 damage. With the bite, is
that what you said? Yeah. uh yeah so you sticking
good with in the neck and it's like a good little
slurpy straw and suck his blood out and he's
dead to the ground all right and then a bonus
section how far away is the veteran uh 15 feet
but being you can't like get face to face because
there's a bear in the way so oh kelly's you can
do long range if you're wanting but you have
a crossbow i gave you a crossbow you can put
a uh curse on her, right? Is that a bonus action?
Yeah, it's a bonus action. Yeah? Assuming that,
how does it work? It's a bonus action. You curse
a creature that you can see within 30 feet until
the end of your next turn. For the duration,
the creature has a disadvantage on strength and
dexterity checks and takes 1d8 narcotic damage
if it takes more than one attack on its turn.
Or if it makes more than one attack on its turn.
So if it makes more than one attack, it does...
It takes 1d8 necrotic launch. Well, luckily they
don't have multi -attack, but... You can if you
want to do that. Yeah, her walking away doesn't
make a recanted spell. She can't use any bonus
action attack super. Yeah. If she has any. True.
So, yeah. Blood Curse of Bloated Agony. On this
motherfucker. Alright, so that's disadvantage
on strength and... The curse slash moment. Dexterity,
you said? The cursed creature can make a constitution
saving throw of 12 at the end of each of its
turns to the end of the curse. Okay. So what
was it? A disadvantage on strength and dex? Mm
-hmm. Okay. Strength and dex. Okay. All right.
Well, yeah, she's cursed. I'm going to give her
a little outline. That last little bit I just
said is if I amplify it. Okay. She's got a little
green curse ring around her now. All right, then.
That was that. That is dead. Vera, your turn.
The people behind you are dead now, so you are
able to move if you want, or you can just keep
walking away and attacking. You should probably
move. I'm going to get the hell out of the way
here and back up out of this her way. Since you
have one hit point. Okay, you're just going to
run back? Oh, I thought you had one. You're going
to just run back? Yeah, they're both behind me.
I can just run and get right behind them. Okay.
Vladimir tootin and carrying cross right in front
of me This is a learning lesson you start to
run back and you get an opportunity attack. So
if you didn't disengage Didn't disengage from
what you didn't disengage from the woman. Thank
you. You were then attacking. She just got cursed
doesn't mean she can't So it's she missed luckily
but yeah Yeah, but you're able to make your way
away from good Cleave and it's her turn. She
said you won't escape me She starts to run forward
and sees the rest of you kind of stand there
and she's a fuck Yeah takes a swing with you
Vladimir cuz you're the closest to get to her
prey. Just count on that one So she comes running
in and like full intent pissed off at Vera sees
the other vampires that have killed her man And
she slips on the blood and falls on the ground.
Yeah, so she loses her turn and she's prone for
Next for this round so carrying your turn She's
like wow like laying down in bodies and blood
I'll get advantage No, but it makes you have
Advantage to hit her because she's like prone
on the ground kind of just like slipping in blood
one of her bodies over Well, I'm gonna swing
down at my scythe and stab her right in her t
-tay You have advantage, yes. I probably still
won't hit it. 14? I will not hit it. She's got
15 AC. Alright, five -meter tootin'. Your turn.
Toot on her. She's just writhing blood on the
ground. She's like right in front of me? Yes,
like on the ground right in front of you. So
I can't, but I can shoot her with this crossbow?
In the face? Yes. I mean, your bite would have
advantage if you wanted to bite her. Yeah, I
would say if you shoot a crossbow up close, it's
actually disadvantage. But it'll even out. You'll
just have a standard roll. Or you can bite her.
That's advantage. I would say that close with
a bow, it'll cancel out your advantage. I'll
just bite her. Okay. Advantage bite. But she's
poisoned. She's cursed. Cursed. Will that hurt
you? It's his curse. No. Okay. It just makes
her strength index. Oh, well, that's fucking
that you have advantage not 20. Yeah. Oh, okay.
Awesome. Yeah Double damage bite so 1d4 roll
it twice. Yeah, of course it's a 2 And a 6 and
then plus your strength and then 10 10 so 10
total Good bite, as this bitch is like, laying
on the ground, slipping in blood. One of you
reached out and just take a chunk out of her,
like a bunch of wild animals. And whisper, bitch,
you thought. Okay, Farrah, Vera, your turn. Is
she not dead? No, she's gotten quite a bit of
health. All right, I'll bite her, then I'll bite
her, too. She's prone for her turn, but yeah,
go ahead, take your bite. Advantage? Oh yeah.
17. 18, 19. 19. So then 2d6 plus 2. Nah. 1d4.
Because it's a normal bite. Okay, so then not
plus 2, so just 17. Because I thought I was doing
bite with a 10 again. Yeah, true. That's only
once a day. 1d4. Minus one is what mine says.
Because your strength is a minus. Yeah, your
strength's low. That sucks. So one damage. You
got little things. One damage. Little baby things.
Alright, one damage. That's her turn, so she's
going to get up. Great sword at you, Vera. Ah!
She missed. She's sweating. What is your fucking
AC? That might have been close. What's your AC?
What do you think it is? It's low. It's 13. Oh,
yeah, she missed. Literally, like, one. Fuck.
All right. Carrying Cross. The Vampire. Let's
see. I'll go ahead and do another melee. I thought
about using a spell. The Scythe. The Scythe.
That is 15. Yeah. Good. Good. Good. Okay, good
the site comes down and just like gets a good
gash on her she's bleeding good you see it stuff
to pour out Fighter Ian. No, I'm not. It's a
two. Actually, sorry. Advantage. Because you
guys have this bitch surrounded. Yeah. She's,
what is it called? Still not doing it. Trapped.
I don't know what it's called. There is a name
for it. Overwhelmed or something? I don't know.
You still missed, you said? Yeah, it was a five.
Well, we tried. All right, Vera, your turn. I
guess I'll bite her with my tiny stupid teeth.
Yeah, bite her with your little baby fangs. Overwhelmed.
Yeah, how about something like that? That's about
the only thing I can think of. With advantage.
Because she's surrounded. Well, will a 14 hit
her? No. So then I didn't get her at all. I rolled
a 15, but my bite says minus one. It's because
of your strength. She's going to reach out and
she's going to grab a hold of you, Vera. No!
No! Yes. Fifteen... Oh, fuck. It's a disadvantage
with a strength check. Eleven... You have to
roll two. She's going to grab you. Eleven plus
three. You won. I won? She, like, reaches out
and grabs a hold of you and she's got her arm,
like, under your ribs. Like a hand on the back
of your head with her sword in her hand She's
like starting to pull you backwards with her
through that hallway. So yeah, she starts to
kind of just Use you as a human shield and pull
you backwards through the hallway. Um, yeah,
that's different Can I react can I react to it?
Uh, you can next turn I don't like you carrying
cross. It's your turn All right, well, uh sight's
probably not the best option so i'm gonna sling
a mind sliver at her, okay Try to sliver. Try
to temporarily sliver the mind of one creature
you can see within range. The target must succeed
on an intelligence saving throw of 13 or take
1d6 psychic damage. Okay. Oh, not gonna save,
sorry. Yes. Uh, 11 flat. She takes 1d6 psychic
damage. Alright. And from now on, on the next
time she does a saving throw, it will be minus
1d4. Fuck. Okay. Um, what's the damage? Wait,
let's see. Let me reread that and subtract 1d4
from the next saving throw It makes before the
end of your next turn. Okay, so it has to be
within the end of my next turn. What damage did
you do? 1d6. Oh, I gotta roll it. Shit, my bad.
I don't know if you rolled it. What's going to
be two damage? Two? Alright, her brain. Feels
speech beginning to be harder. She lets me go.
Makes her grip harder when she gets her brain
wrapped. Is that it? Yeah, that's all I got really.
How far is she from me? Uh, she is, uh, 20 -something.
Yeah, she's, well, she's pretty close. She's
about 15 feet. I'm prepared for Ryan to, for
Vladimir to shoot at her, so I have my head out
of the way. I'll say if you shoot at her, that's
fine. If you fail bad, you could hit her, but
she's also gonna have, like, a cover. Uh, no,
um. veteran is gonna have like cover status so
like it would boost her AC because she's using
someone else as cover so let's just say if you
fail badly yeah you will hit you could have a
chance but pull her off of her yeah you can try
that just give me a strength check to try to
like yank that bitch out and I'll have to oppose
it bite the hand that doesn't feed me Like the
hand that stretches you. Nah, it's a five again.
Five? Well, I got a three plus three. Dang it!
Mine would be five plus one. Wow. Mine's five
plus one. So you both rolled a six. Yeah, we
both rolled a six. So, re -roll. I think it goes
to... Oh no, not plus one. My bad. It's strength,
so it's plus two. So I have a seven. So Ryan
rolled. Ah, you beat by one then. Yay! Damn.
Oh, that was a close one. Yeah, so you rip her
out of her hand and she's like... Aw, fuck. And
just kind of stands there with her yanked from
her hands, but... Yeah, now it's your turn, unless
you have a bonus action. The only thing I can
do is just curse her again, but... Okay, that's
the last, I think. Vera, your turn. You just
got yanked out of her arms by Vladimir. Vladimir
Tutin. Leader of Trusha. I'm gonna bite her.
I'm gonna bite her. Bite her, bite her, bite
her. Bite her. Yeah, jump right back into her
arms. Take me. I'm not going to jump right back
into her arms. She's a youngling vampire. She's
a fresh spawn. She doesn't know how her fighting
range really works. She's the one. Yeah, I rolled
a six, so no, five. With advantage? Oh. You guys
have her surrounded, so you all get to pretty
much roll with advantage. Sixteen? Yeah. So I
bite the shit out of her. You bite a little bit
out of her, yeah. With my thing. It's like 1d4
minus 1 or something? Yeah, shut up. Actually,
4, so 3. 3. Okay. What happens if you roll a
1d4 and you get a 1? Minus 1. No damage. Did
he break the skin? Just put, like, dimples. You
hit, but you didn't hit hard. You hit, but there
was no blood drawn. No blood was drawn. You didn't
drink any. All right. Her turn. It's a good thing
you ran and got right back. Don't I have a bonus
section? You should probably start disengaging
after. That's what I mean. Disengage. You do.
Disengage? Okay. Alright, full movement speed
or what? Just getting as far away as you can?
Uh, not too far because Vladimir Tutin can't
be left alone. Yeah, and Karrion Kross. I guess
we don't care about him. He's away from her!
She said he can put the lotion on the skin. Oh,
my map. She dragged you like a little bit behind
the hallway, but yeah. Okay, then it's her turn.
So she's going to go after. No, she's not. How
far is she from you, Carrie? Good question. I
haven't moved since. She's enough to get. Okay,
so she kind of like looks at you guys and she
goes, ah, this is not my fight. She's like bleeding
and dropping blood. So she's going to run. The
opposite direction. You hear her kind of just
like, God! Guys! Guys! She starts running. Well,
she went to go take off, so that gives me opportunity
attack. Were you still up close to her? Because
I thought you yanked what's -her -face away from
her. So that would be, you would be kind of like
opposite of Vera. Yeah, never mind. So yeah,
she kind of takes off down the path. You guys
going to be in chase, or are you just going to
let her run? I'm in. You can chase her if you
want, or if you're just gonna let her dip you
have the right to do whatever you want to do.
I won't be falling. I got 60 foot range. Okay.
So you're gonna dash? No, I meant I can hit her
from 60 foot away. Oh, right, right, right. Okay.
So yeah, you're gonna move. I'll just do standard
movement. Standard movement. In the direction
she's going. 30. Okay. So you are about 10 feet
from her now. Okay. She can only move the same
amount of you. So you guys are in a 10 -foot
foot chase. It's like, God damn it. I'll hit
her with Toll of the Dead. Toll of the Dead.
What was that again? Wisdom save? Wisdom of 13
minus a D4. Aw, piss. Okay, that's a 15. Minus
a D4. With no plus, so minus a D4. Please be
a 4. 4. Very nice. So, she will take one D12
necrotic because she is missing HP. Yes, so give
me it. Alright. That was good. That save saved
you. That's crazy. Exactly four. A nine. I'm
not scrubbing rolls. Nine necrotic. nine necrotic
so yeah that one hits her and that you can see
she was in full sprint and she's like oh my god
and that kind of falls to one knee and she's
like that what the fuck it's like spits up some
blood but she's still alive she just hears from
down the hallway for whom the bell tolls latimer
tootin your turn she's got a ptsd of that bell
they're like what so she is 40 45 feet from you
damn you are 30 feet from carrying I only have
30 feet. You can move to where Carrion is, yeah.
And then she, from that point, she is 15 feet.
Alright, and then I'll shoot her with the crossbow.
Okay. Launch some savage magic and crossbow bolts.
Little fangs, big fangs. Crossbow bolts. Nah,
damn, 13. Yeah, it will not hit. Do I get advantage?
No, because she's now away from you guys. She's
running. You don't have any type of proficiency
with it, do you? Yeah, you do. I am proficient.
So add your that. They should say it on there
if you're using it. Plus. Oh, true. It says plus
3 right there. So did you roll 13? No, it was
10. Oh, I thought it was flat 13. Alright, Barry,
your turn. Now you ran back further than them,
so they are... 35 feet from you and she is 40
or 50 feet from you. Kind of winging these moves.
So I'm going to dash to her to make it to her
and bite her ankle so she can no longer run away.
Okay, so bonus action dash to her and then you're
going to get your bite action. You said not with
advantage? No. Do it by yourself. Fact. I rolled
a four. Yeah, you missed. Once again, you lift
your body. Sadly, it's her turn. Here comes a
boot. I disengage. Because your head is right
by her foot for some reason. I know. You crawl
like a lizard on the ground to bite her ankle.
She's like, yeah, you run up and you're like,
I don't know. You do a lizard crawl and you just
take a chunk out of her boot. She's like, these
are metal, you fool. And she's going to give
you a curb slomp on the ground. That's a 15 plus
her strength, so plus three. But that's going
to be unarmed, so I'm going to do... Oh, not
a d20. Fuck. Okay. So 3 plus 3. So 6 damage from
a big metal boot coming down on your fucking
head. Nice. Very good. Okay. Very good. Thank
you. Broke a fang. Yeah, broke a fang. Your fang's
chipped. No. Carrion Cross, your turn. Alrighty
then. I'm going to use Mind Sliver. Alright.
She's gonna be brain dead by the end of you know
the drill 13 intelligence Yeah, so give me give
me your damage one D six Six yep, so you do a
sit you do full max damage on this bitch and
you see like a bear like taking a bite you just
see her take a a good stomp right on her head
and just smoke her to the ground now she's like
shaking blood off her boot you see like a little
like a snap in her brain she's like oh you just
hear like gibberish come out of her mouth so
she just drops to her knees uh she's alive but
she is no longer fighting capable she's yeah
she's just like oh like staring at the wall it's
like blank slate like you've done fried her brain
we're gonna put her on the rack off the torture
rack stretching rack yeah yeah i'd say combat's
over so Let's do it. That's up to you. You were
on the rack. Yes! Put her on the rack! Put her
on the rack! Yeah, you put her on the rack and...
I mean, would it even be enjoyable? She's not
really there anymore. I don't even think it's
the same person. That's your fault. We just leave
her there. Just put her on the rack and leave
her there. She's going to bootstomp your brains
everywhere. Okay, so are you just strapping her
to the table then? Yeah. Okay, you strap her
to the table. Give her a little stretch. Just
one stretch? Yeah, she gave me one. Okay, yeah,
so you give her one little stretch. Oh, I guess
I need to make a con save. Just enough to make
her uncomfortable. She failed her con save. Oh.
So she takes one damage of her bones. You feel
like an elbow just kind of go... Kind of like
pop out of socket. You see like a grimace on
her face, but no visible. Nothing really happens.
But yeah, that's about it. I might take a little
sip. You take a little sip? All right, is that
a bite? yes okay so the thigh or something yeah
all right just yeah take a little sip i guess
what is that like d4 i guess yeah do d4 then
take a little sip does she have any health potions
on her three yes yeah no she's not she's not
she's not dead she still had a decent amount
of health but with the nat one fail and the amount
multiple amounts of psychic damage her brain
is frozen no i know she's not dead but i still
take things from her what are you doing she got
anything in her in her possessions She keep it
up in the pussy What did you ask for Kelly What's
her in her possessions does she have any like
health potions in her No, she doesn't have any
health potions, but she's got a great Not in
her no No, she doesn't have any health potions.
She has a great sword. You're seeing her armors
and that's about it. They're here for Crusade
and murder they wouldn't bring much healing abilities
because of You want to see your insides that
bit just turn the fucking crank on the right
I'm guessing there's more people to kill There's
more ish. Yeah, you can assume That's good or
do your thing and talk through it work your way
through it There's ways to do things other than
just kill everything Well, I lost the health
in that fight, so... I don't know what you want
us to do here. The person who's about on the
death's door should probably worry about health.
I'll say if you want to take a moment to drink
from the blood pools, you can regain some health
from being damaged. But you'll have to take a
good minute of, like, drinking and resting and,
like, taking a second. I will do that. I will
do that. I guess I could have tried to pick the
helpful spell for healing, but... Okay, so drink
from the thing. Give me a D6. I don't know what
just rolled across there. You clicked and rolled
something. A D6. Damn. I got one. Good. You get
one health back from that blood pool. Oh yeah.
Um, I got a six. Six? You got six health back.
If you want to try again, you can, but I will
say it's taking time to drink and rest and get
your body to regenerate, so things could happen
badly if you take too much time. I'm going to
do it one more time. Okay, well. Three. You're
going to become a crack addict. For blood. You
going to drink again? No? All right, so yeah.
Okay, I can do that. There you go. There you
go. There you go. You got some homemade healing
potions. Hell yeah. There's a blood pool. I'll
say you can carry, you probably got like a bottle
or so around. So probably a bottle of potion
healing. Hell yeah. All right. And then Barry,
you take another drink. Make me a con safe. After
getting a little bit too much drink. I'm kind
of curious about that blood stuff. Is it all
my blood? Or does it form itself with other blood
too? I think it's from your patron's room. Eight.
eight eight eight oh you fail so i'm gonna drink
my side so you your eyes start to turn a little
more like blood pumping red you've got like this
overfill of blood just pumping through you so
you're a little bit you don't really know what's
going on but you're a little bit like jittery
and freaking out a bit yeah i had a monster yeah
you got yes you had an energy drink okay so you
guys gonna leave this chick strapped to the table
you're gonna rip her in half what is the what
you guys want to like leave her there Leave it
there. Sorry, I was contemplating whether I could
lick my sight and drink the blood off of it for
emergency purposes. Like a salt rock when you're
starving. Where you guys are standing at this
blood pool, to your north, northwest -ish, there
is a room that is glowing, you know as a treasury
room, kind of holds storage and stuff. I don't
know if treasury room is the right word for that.
They hold storage in there. armory such of all
kinds of stuff because it's a vampire layer they
don't do a lot of like full armories yeah stock
room yeah so you know things are held in though
that room and the room on the far side of it
to your east there's another path that leads
to a four -way path so check the stock rooms
stock rooms okay look for daggers check the stock
room and you find your guys's equipment There's
chests full of your gear and your stuff that
was taken from you when the assault happened
on the lair. Yeah, so you go, just form your
side. Mine's been here the whole time. So yeah,
you've got your armors, you've got your weapons,
you've got your gear. Okay, so you have your
gear, you have your equipment, your weapons of
destruction. So you've got the path you came
from with the four -way. And then to your east
is the main... lobby room, ritual room, big ass
scary room of a vampire lair. And you're seeing
a guard and you're seeing a veteran and a somewhat
bigger, like more higher standard guy standing
up there along with a vampire kind of kneel down
on their knees. So, what would you guys like
to do? Do you want to progress into that room?
Or do you want to do something else? Or fuck
off? Do we know how big the place is from memory?
Yeah, so... where you have been like where you
guys were on this whole uh west side of the place
is pretty much copied onto the east side okay
so it's about the same symmetrical building pretty
much all right up ahead as you know is like the
ritual room there's a once you get around the
corner the up ahead still on our half not the
other half you know i mean uh it's in like the
middle of the whole place yeah at the very north
side this is the very tip of the layer um on
the north end of it So probably just more peons
on the other side, I would imagine. Yeah, peons.
And maybe another stock room. Peon you, peon
me. It'd be whether you guys want to see if there's
another stock room or what's in it, or just go
for the head honcho in the main room. Yeah, you
definitely know that across the room here is
the other stock room. Like, it's this copy symmetrical
room. So you've got the two stock rooms and then
main room. So if you go to the stock room, you'll
have to cross. through the main room in front
of those people, or back the way you came through
the four -way you saw to cut up and around. Cut
up and around, be sneaky. Probably should have
short -rested, but I think I will take one minute
to use one of my abilities before that. Okay.
I find it exactly here. Sorry. What did you say
was in the room? Yeah, here we go. You can ask
him. What is it? How many people did you say
was in the room? The room that you were looking
for, it's another veteran like you fought before.
And then you're seeing like this more kind of
holier, like high standard guy. And then a vampire
like down on their knees. And they're kind of
just like talking and doing stuff. All right.
Not on his knees in like dick sucking position.
More like down on his knees like I'm going to
kill you position. Please, yeah, please don't
kill me. For my life. Yeah. Once for long rest,
you can perform an esoteric rite for one minute.
Regain up to one packed magic spell slot. Okay.
Yeah, you can do that. One minute? That's not
very long. Yeah, I figured since we're not in
turn right now. Is there anything you guys would
like to do while he takes a minute to do that?
I know you said go around Kelly, Eric. Yeah,
be safe. I didn't know if you wanted to make
your way that way or if you wanted to wait. I'm
gonna wait and see what they do. Okay. I don't
like being alone. Karrion Kross sits down and
starts doing a ritual. And how far away is the
head honcho dude with the fucking little bitches
at his feet? He's about 60 feet from you guys.
Oh, perfect. Yeah, you're like down a hallway
and then up a way. I'm ready whenever you guys
are. I got a plan. Okay. So are you going straight
for the big honcho, you said? Are you going around
to loot the stock room? Which one are you doing?
I mean, we're gonna get spotted if we try to
go across there, since we don't really have...
Or if you go back down the way you came, there
is the four -way path that you saw that leads
back to the other stock room. I mean, the way
I see it, it's either we get it and kill them,
or we kill them and get it. Okay. It's all the
same to me. I mean, if you guys really want better
weapons, I'm happy with what I got. If you guys
want some stronger stuff, you can check the stock
room by looping around. We'll say during my minute
of concentration that you guys wanted to do that
if you wanted to. You want to loop around and
go search the stock room while he does his ritual?
That's kind of what I was saying. Yeah, that's
fine. Okay. Because I'm happy with my weapons,
but I don't know if you guys are happy with your
starting weapons inside that scythe. That helps.
I'm cool, but I'll go check if there's some cooler
shit. Yeah, you get to the four -way, and as
you step around the corner, you're seeing this...
this one of the weaker infantry guys there's
like a dead dude on the ground he's just kind
of stepping over him and you see him look inside
of this like red hell portal looking thing on
the floor it's just like there and he's just
like looking into it all scared like you guys
are behind him but he doesn't notice you okay
that's where my brain went to it's like so who
knows what that'll do give me a self check are
you both gonna sneak up and push him I'm not
with you guys, but I would wonder if you recognize
it from memory and know what it possibly does
You want to do a history check you can but you
may not have been told about this. You do a history
check. Yeah, so I don't know if it's a portal
or if it's a fucking It could be a landmine.
I'm gonna listen to his history check real fast
14 plus 4 is 18 18. Okay. So yeah, you've looked
into this or you heard a rumor You've heard a
rumor from one of your other vampire pals that
this Portal it is a portal You don't know where
it leads, but you know that it's you've heard
that It's what generates power for this place
like it's what pumps blood through this place
like this portal is like a siphon Pushing through
it and out to the layer So I'm gonna like sneak
attack okay As she listens to your history of
this place and what you've been told, she says,
I'm going to stealth check and push him in. All
right. I was going to suggest you at least use
the one standard exercise to start draining his
blood into the portal. Did you push? Yeah, 16.
I pushed him right in. That's plus strength.
You said stealth. Oh, stealth? Yeah, that's the
sneak up. I'm talking about the push. Not get
detected. Not get detected by him. Okay, I got
a 16 to not get detected. You did sneak up on
him. He doesn't know you're there. He's just
staring into this hellish void. Now you need
to do a strength. So What what would happen that
Vladimir Teuton if I put his blood in there?
No, he's already he's back behind you. You already
ran up and stealthed I'm confused No one neither
of you know, what'll happen if you push him into
it. Good. Look you just know that it's a Portal
could like it or it could just completely blow
up that whole wing of the building. Who knows?
Oh, yeah I'm gonna push a minute. Okay, she's
rolling dice athletics, I think Strength check
plus athletics? It's like a strength athletics
check, so I don't know. Oh, I see that. Strength
to show athletics to resistance. Fourteen. Fourteen?
You push him. You got a very low one. You got
a three. So, yeah, this guy's just like... Hold
on, this thing's awfully scary. I wouldn't want
to touch this. And he just feels hands, like,
push. And he's like, oh, shit! And he falls forward,
and you see him hit this thing, and it's like
a meat grinder. It's like... Oh, my God! And
blood just shoots straight up out of it, pours
back down into it, and then you just see it kind
of, like, siphon out and just go back throughout
all the veins of the building. Solid choice.
Well, you juiced up the building. Very good.
Well, he's gone. I was kind of wondering if it
was going to do that. It's like the old, like,
Freddy Krueger movie, like the... Okay, I'll
say in this stock room give me an investigation
check these tests and boxes I got 20, but not
natural. Okay, yeah. You're able to find, then,
I'll say, three blood potions. Healing blood
potions. And probably not many weapons of expertise.
So, I'd say mostly with the healing. Healing
potions, huh? Yeah. Alrighty. So, yeah. You guys
are on opposite sides now. You can see... carrying
cross to the west side doing his ritual about
finishing up the ritual in the other sock room
breach from two sides yeah is that what you guys
would like to do before you go in or i don't
know where you guys have helped that yeah i'll
30. one of them blood potions yeah get it so
that's what how much one d4 sorry plus that's
it we'll do plus two i would like to take one
of the blood potions okay go for it What do I
do one D what one D four plus two six Three All
right, we done then yeah, all right, what would
you guys like to do again like preaching charges
like well With no mercy to the two people that
are on their knees and feared next to that guy.
How close are they doing? Well one there's one
one from a vampire on his knees in front of the
Lord bright -tide but then Yeah Well, they're
like in a line. It's like veteran bright -tide
and vampire cloud of daggers on the big dot Yes,
right at 60 foot, okay So give me a perception
check right before you do that interesting since
you're kind of stepping out and doing the first
attack not stepping out but you know uh yeah
i'll give it to you so you hear uh uh lord the
the bigger guy the lord in the middle uh with
yelling at the vampire and he goes so you tell
me that this machine right here this this little
pile of bones this little half pentagram demonic
worship is what powers the portal He goes, and
if I crush your skull against the front of this
thing, it won't stop it? And then you hear the
vampire say, no, it won't stop it. I don't know
how to stop it. And he just stomps his head,
like, right into the front of the thing. And
he just, skull explodes all over this big, like,
rock pile, like, bones everywhere. At the same
time, I, oh, no, no, no, no. Then you see a cloud
of dagger just, boom, hit the guy. And he's like,
oh, fuck. Dickhead. What does he got to do? You
conjure spinning daggers and a five -foot cube
centered on the point within range each creature
in the area takes 44 slashing on damn a creature
also takes this damage if it enters the cube
or if it ends its turn in the cube or if the
cube moves into its space Creature takes damage
only once per turn. Okay, so yeah, it was a surprise
attack so I Can make it move They don't make
a save or anything? Nope. 10 damage. 10 damage
to both of them? They just can't touch it. Okay.
Well. That was good. I guess not both of them.
Not both of them? They're both dead. That's not
the duty to stomp. There's a veteran and... Oh,
okay. I thought I think he meant the duty to
stomp. I was like, well, I'm hurting a corpse.
No, he stomped the old brains out of the vampire.
Good, heard them both. Yeah, so you did that
to them, and then we're gonna roll initiative,
because they're like, oh my god, I'm not gonna
play. I can move it later on, or up to 30 foot,
but it takes a magic action. Wait, would that
mean I would have to use a spell slot to do a
magic action? I don't think it costs a spell
slot to move it. I think it's the action. I think
it's like you take your action to move it, rather
than it in. Okay. Yep, that's it for me, I guess.
I'm at the perfect range. Well... That was just
your surprise round, so... Now we need initiatives.
I got 12. 12? 11 plus 1. I got a rock. Oof. 7.
At least you got a birthday. That's true. 21.
21? 21? Lord Brighttide. Let's see what he rolls.
15 plus 2. Oh. And a veteran. 18 plus 3, Jesus.
What's your initiative bonus? So he's going to
go before you, Kelly. All right, first up is
a veteran. He's like, oh, fuck! As all these
daggers just start swirling around him and slicing
him up. He's like, Lord Brattain, we're under
attack! And he takes off running towards you,
Carrion. So he's going to do his old greatsword.
Oh, but he's right there. From 60 foot? Huh?
Was that a closer guy? No, this was, well, did
you have to move up to see them to place the
clatterbaggers? Didn't you have to move up to
the edge of the hallway to open the room? How
close did I get to see them? When you cut the
corner of that hallway is when you can see them,
and they're 20 feet from that doorway. From where
you guys were in the stock room, you were further
back, but that was out of view of them. Gotcha.
Yep, I guess he's swinging then. All right, uh,
let me roll it. Did I just roll it? I don't know.
Nine plus five. Wait. Six plus five. No. Okay,
then, Vera, it's your turn. Oh, snap! How close
am I? Uh, you are... about 20 feet from... 25
feet from the veteran. They're on the other side
of the room. And Bright Tide is about, well no,
he's 35 and you're about 30 from, 25 from him.
25 from the veteran, 35 from Bright Tide. Okay,
so I'll go to the veteran, he's closer. Okay.
And short short him right in the... Short short.
Right in the Achilles tendon. Okay. And... You
gotta do an attack roll. And knock him out. Very
descriptive. I have to do an attack roll for
my short sword. Yes. Eleven? No. You get to...
No, you don't. I'm sorry. I'm going to disengage.
Okay. You moved your feet to him. I thought he
was 25. Okay. You've got five feet to back the
fuck up, at least. Okay. Now we get an opportunity
attack. Well, it was an opportunity attack. She
ran up and daggered him and then walked away.
I didn't dagger him. I short -shorted him. Oh,
short -shorted him. Sorry. He got an opportunity
attack. He's got a long, short... And he got
a nat 20. Dib it. You're going down. I think
you're down. You're going down. I think you're
unconscious. That's double damage. So that's
six and three plus three. What? Nine, ten, eleven,
twelve. Yeah, buddy! Off to a good start. And
with that opportunity to attack, it's Brighttide's
turn. Oh yeah. Brighttide says, oh, we have more
little biters ready to fight, and he pulls up
a heavy crossbow. He's going to take a shot at
Vera, because you're the one in the open. I'm
going to make that dude roll like I did that
one shoot. Six plus... He'll be bumbling. No,
he misses. Six plus four. Good. Miss. All right.
That's it. Vladimir, your turn. And how far am
I from him? So you're about where Vera was, so
about 35 to the right tide. All right. I'm going
to hit him with... I'm going to hit right tide
with a heavy crossbow. Okay, step out of the
little hallway. Bow fight. Bow fight. Maybe not.
Definitely not. Fucking denying it. No, definitely
not. Carrying Cross, you got a veteran in your
face. You've dealt with him before. Yeah. He's
weak. He's been hurt. Wait, is it when a character
ends their turn in your daggers, it hurts them?
Or is it ends your turn? If they end their turn
in it. Oh, then I need to do damage for Bright
Tide again. Oh, okay. Because I forgot to move
him. Oh, lovely. One, five, six. Shitty roll,
seven damage. Seven? I got three ones in that.
That's better than no damage. All right, back
to you then with the veteran. Let's see. This
could be risky business. So where's my standing
position right now? You are on the west side
of this main room, square room, in the entrance
of the hallway to the west stock room. So I'm
at an entrance to a hallway? Yes, and then the
veteran's right in front of you. How wide is
that hallway? It is 10 feet wide. Okay. Two squares.
And how far was that guy's movement distance?
The veteran? 30. Ah, I'm going to move. My cloud
of daggers exactly six feet in front of me. It
has a five -foot hit area. So it will be Within
blow a kiss at the daggers in front of my face.
Okay, so he's getting hit with it If he's trying
to fight me face to face he is yeah, he's face
to face Yeah, he's gonna be standing in there
the whole time. All right, so then that doesn't
damage right away because he just entered it
Yeah, or it answers him. Yeah, or so yeah, so
the old daggers injured him the cloud of it Yeah,
they're a pest the daggers are luckily I'm rolling
absolute garbage Seven again All right, yeah,
he's like he's like ready to fight you and you
see He's fucking demon but that knives keep attacking
me. It's like you're not distracted. Are you
from our funny? Yeah, it's his turn good. He's
gonna try to grapple you Okay So three plus three,
you got six. Against my athletics? Yes. That's
a 14. Yeah, you're ready to break free and he
doesn't yank you into the cloud of daggers. Good.
Damn it. All right. Vera, your turn. You're in
the middle of the open room. There's a veteran
10 feet from you now and a bright tide. Don't
melee the veteran. 20 feet from you. I'm going
to look around. Yeah, if you get close to the
veteran, any closer, your daggers will come out.
I'm going to look around for somewhere I can
get safe while I take a blood potion. So you
can move to the hallway you came from if you
want back out of the view. Yeah. Okay. Yeah,
because if you go the other way, you're going
to have to run. I only have one blood potion.
Yeah, there was only three, so we all know. You
look like you're going to need it. You is hurt.
I know. I only have the one life that we took
from... I mean, that's part of it. You better
kill him quick. What is it you rolled? 1d4 plus
4. Or, plus 2. Plus 2? Okay. 5. Okay. 5 healing.
Yay. Better than 5. You still have an action
if you want to do anything else, but you probably
can't. No, there's not that I can really do,
but lay here and not die. Bright tide's turn.
I think he's gonna just do another crossbow attack
at you because he knows that bitch is hiding
behind that wall. With that fucking sneaky little
dagger. Sure, sir. 18 plus stuff, so it hits.
Oh, shit. You gonna shoot her through the wall?
Wait, that's a long dance. Didn't you just say
she's behind the wall? Shooting at you. I say
he's gonna shoot at you and he's not gonna get
close because he knows that bitch is hiding behind
that wall. Four plus four. Jesus. Eight damage.
Heavy crossbow. I'm down to ten. Wow. You and
Kelly are matching. You and Vera. Alright, your
turn, Vladimir. Tootin'. Alright, I'm gonna hit
him back with a fucking crossbow because fucking...
Bow fight! Come on, don't do me dirty. Yes. Anything
you want to do while you've got movement and
bonus action? I can put a curse on him. I'm going
to give him the blood curse of bloated agony.
Yeah. Fuck him. He's got bloated agony. He's
bloated in agony. Anything else? That's all I
got. Let's see. Karrion Kross. Your turn. All
right. I'm standing out of the cloud of daggers.
I will swing my scythe into it to hit the guy.
Since it is a long -range weapon. Yes. Let's
see if I hit him. Quick fail? No, that doesn't
hit him. I'm going to say with that, he kind
of moves and you do a little... Your head just
kind of touches the cloud of daggers, so give
yourself some cloud of daggers damage. I think
it's gonna be the best rolls I've had yet, probably
was. Yeah, max damage the whole time. No, it
wasn't bad. Six damage. Oh yeah, less than you
gave them. They knew. The daggers were like,
Dad? They were like, no, Dad, no. Dad, no. All
right, anything else? Bonus actions or nothing?
I don't know if you got it. I don't know your
guys' characters anymore, so I don't know what
you got. Not really, not with that disposal,
I don't think. All right, then it is his turn.
You can't really move too much because you'll
get an opportunity attack. So I think he's just
going to try and take you out with everything
he's got. Yeah, I put him in a bad spot. Oh god,
he hits. 18 plus 3? Yeah, it hits. That's 2 plus
3. Poop. Nice. Vera, your turn. My goodness.
How close am I to whichever? Well, the veteran
is 30 feet from you in a cloud of daggers. And
Bright Tide is about 35 feet from you now. Damn.
A cloud of daggers? Yeah. That's what... That's
exactly what it's like. Yeah, he just summons
a cloud of daggers and it's slicing him up. Oh,
shit. I didn't realize that's what was happening.
The veteran that Carrion is fighting, yes, he's
got cloud of daggers on him. The bright tide
does not. He's just been shooting crossbow, you
guys. So I'm going to dash that way I can double
my movement speed since they're already pretty
much my whole movement speed away from me. That
way when I get done slicing him, I can still
be running away. Okay, give me a slice on bright
tide. I'm going to use my short sword. Whoops,
I dropped my die. Twelve. 13, 14, 15, 16 to hit.
On the money. Do you have two bonus actions?
Oh wait, that's not a 1d6. Ah. Piss. Four damage.
She will learn one day. Four damage. Sliced and
diced. Okay, you're up on him. No, I'm not up
on him. I kept running. I said I sliced them
and kept running. So you're going to slice them
and then run away? Yeah, to safety. Again. Once
again. Flaw in the plan. It's a disengage to
run away, is it not? That takes a bonus action.
That takes a bonus action. Which you use to dash.
I'll give you, you can either stay there or you
can run away and take the opportunity attack.
You can guarantee that he's gonna attack you
if you're standing there, or he's gonna attack
you if you run away. I'm still gonna run away.
An hour later. Okay, you're still gonna run away?
Try to get away with opportunity attack. Let's
try it. Oh boy. She's dead. If he hits you, you
can't move away either. Your stuff's better.
Got a 19 plus stuff. He cracked you right in
the back of the cranium. With a war hammer. Oh
fuck. Fuck. Night night. Vampires is? Three plus
three. You're looking at a low roll. Oh, you're
not dead. You're close. You're not dead. That
ore hammer dinged you in the noggin and gave
you a good dent. But it interrupted your movement.
And interrupted your movement. So you're still
within kill range. Actually, perfect kill range.
Which is not good. So next up is Lord Brighttide.
Oh, fuck. oh it's his turn right up there he
said get over here yeah as you as you step up
and try to run away and he's like he reaches
his big old arm out and grabs you and he's gonna
try and grab you oh go for it man strength what's
your athletic strength plus so i got 16 plus
three i'm gonna do a composed athletics check
well kelly's vampire might die she's dead Or
make it really hard for you guys to kill him
without killing her. Yeah, she'd go unconscious.
It's just unconscious. He's dragging her. He'll
have to keep boot -stomping your corpse to kill
you for a little while. What'd he do? He's grappled
you with a 16 plus 3, so you need to make a Strength
Athletics check to try and not be grappled. Strength
Athletics check. You can learn that these holy
warriors don't care about using... Undead, unholy
creatures as human shields. 19! 19? Yeah. Strength?
Athletics. I rolled an 18 plus 1. Okay. Okay.
My strength athletics is plus 1. Oh yeah, then
you beat it. Literally. Damn. Yeah, I'm awesome.
Say it. Yeah, you beat it. You got lucky. You
did get lucky. So yeah, that was his turn. What
the fuck, wow. Alright Vladimir, it's your turn.
So is she in front of him? She's there, but she's
not grappled. So I can shoot him and not hit
her? Awesome. We're gonna try it again. I have
a feeling you're gonna run away and he's just
gonna shoot you in the back. Just slide face
in the dirt. You're gonna get the old John Snow's
brother treatment. Motherfucker. No. 8 plus 3.
8 plus 3. Not gonna do it. He's a fucking aero
-dodging fool. Carrying cross. Got the veteran
still standing. He needs to take his... Another
round of damage. Since he decided to camp in
the cloud. Two... Three... Four... Five damage,
jeez. Got a lot of ones. You're nailing them
down. And... Scythe. What the fuck is happening?
That's not it. That was a 2 plus 3. Alright,
it's his turn. I think he's gonna go with the
grapple again, because I think your cloud of
daggers do more damage than he does. 19. Oh,
baby! 19 plus 3. What the fuck? Okay, 19 plus
3. I swear to God, if you get a fucking 20, or
anything plus anything. The only way I could
beat it would be a flat crit, because I'll be
at 22 with the bonus off a crit. Come on, crit,
baby. It's a crit. I'm going to shit my pants.
Eight. Plus two. Not a crit. Yeah, so he grapples
you. Come here, you son of a bitch, and taste
it. So, yeah, you're going to have to take your
own cloud of daggers on, I guess. I've been rolling
shit anyways. Honestly, his attack would probably
hit harder than the fire damage it's been doing.
Vera, your turn. You're about... There's a flaw
in his plan, though. You're about ten feet from
Lord Brighttime. He's also got a fucking cloud
of daggers with me. Yeah. 10 feet from him. I'm
not stuck in here with you. You're stuck in here
with me. He's never milled by it three times.
So I'm just going to go up five feet because
my short sword has a five foot reach and short
sword and hopefully nick his artery and bleed
him out. Nope, never mind. Seven. Okay. Anything
else? Just engage. There you go. Alright, let's
see where you can move to. You can just barely
get behind your wall. Alright, you're out of
fucking view from that motherfucker to shoot
you this time. But, it's his turn and he can
still see Vladimir Tutin peeking the corner.
So, he's gonna take a heavy crossbow. Disadvantage,
because he's peeking. If he is peeking. Well,
it would be a plus to his AC from hiding in that
corner. I think a napkin only breaks that. What
the fuck? This dude's smoking crack. Take this
mug or crossbow. Jesus Christ. So that's 6 and
4 plus 2. That's 12. Total. 12 total. That was
a stiff bolt. Okay, down. That was a stiff bolt.
Dun dun dun! Vampire down! And now it's Vladimir's
turn, so I need to make me a death save. Vampires.
It's a special kind of death save. Spit up a
little bit more blood. Carrion Cross, your turn.
You've got a vampire falling. Let's do our checks
here. Because every turn you're going to have
to try and hold on to my ass. Oh yeah, fuck.
I'm still going to take the damage from being
in it. Okay, 13 plus 3. Alright. 19 plus 2. Yeah,
you break out. Alright, now the damage. You have
to step out of your cloud of daggers. You have
to do it from the entering end. 4, 5. Okay, 9
damage to both of us. Okay, 9 to him. And 9 to
George, so... Yeah, he's dead. It rips him to
shreds. You just start turning into like a mist
looks like piranhas Okay, yeah, I'll taste in
the chunk all right Your turn Vera your turn
Well, I didn't even attack. Oh, yeah, you didn't
attack is your turn still then the daggers I
killed him I'm supposed to be counting turns.
I think that was a fifth turn now, right? That
was the fifth round. Yeah, so I get ten with
the daggers. How far away is the bow guy? Probably
not super far from you. Twenty -five. Yep. I'll
move him a lot of daggers right into his occupying
space. Okay. A lot of daggers. Let me roll the
damage for that. Yeah. I'm going to put a little
four. Two, six, seven. Ten damage. Ten damage?
It does better when it's away from me. Yeah,
the further away it gets. I would imagine it's
going to be hard to shoot a bow accurately. So
that's tearing him up, shredding him a bit. Is
that it for your turn, Dan? All right, Vera,
it's your turn. He's got a cloud of daggers surrounding
him now. And I'm still just like five foot away
from him? No, you ran back to the hallway. Oh,
yeah. No, I forgot I did that. So at this point,
you're down to long range. If you get close,
you're going to get hit by a cloud of daggers.
And you're very low health, so... So I'm just
going to skip my turn. I think you can actually
give a medicine check to stabilize Vladimir,
if you want to do that. Okay, I can do that.
A medicine check? Yeah, give you a medicine check.
So that Vladimir doesn't bleed out on the die,
on the ground. What would a medicine check be?
I think it's either wisdom or intelligence. Wisdom?
Yeah. Not one. Perfect. Make me a death save.
Come on, I'm here. No! She made you worse. She
fucked you up. I'm sorry, that's the only thing.
She put her knee on your throat. Hey, you passed
it. Okay, so you got a save out of that. You
could have gotten worse, but... She nailed all
your balls while she was trying to help you.
I'm so sorry! She squished a vampire ball while
she was trying to pick you up. I didn't mean
to. Alright, bright tides turn. He's gonna be
like, ah, fuck, shit, ow. He's gonna start making
his way towards you, Carrion, because now he
realizes. Yeah, that's expected. Alright, he's
gonna take a Warhammer smack. He has no friends,
so he's not okay. 12 plus 4. I forgot you guys
are normal people anymore. I'm wearing mage armor,
so that's a little tougher now, isn't it? 6 plus
3. Six plus three? Hell yeah, one HP. Oh, fuck.
No doubt. Well, enough dicking around, everybody.
Short turn, death save. Everybody keeps just
missing their fucking arrows and fucking dagger
stabs. I failed again. Failed? Oh, wait. Yeah,
I failed. Death. It says save. That's weird.
Yeah, it does say save, but it was a three. Yeah.
Carrying the cross. Your turn. Right tied in
your shit. How rough is that dude looking not
rough rough. He's rough He's been getting tore
up by cloud of daggers and all kinds of shit.
You guys actually hit him He's pretty rough he
didn't have like crazy super super high also
Uh reach my bonus action to disengage away from
him. Okay about Back down the way you came to
the stock room or yeah, we'll say about like
10 foot just see a little distance and then I
will Let him hear the bell. So let's see if he
passes a 13 wisdom save. He fails. 3 plus 0.
Takes a d12 of psychic damage. Not psychic, necrotic.
5. 5 damage. Alright, Vera, your turn. Got the
option he is not in the cloud of daggers any
longer. Yes. No medicine check and not fail this
time Or you could have just stabbed the fucking
guy who's about to kill your other teammate and
leave you stranded by yourself What'd you do
stab the other guy? What was your medicine check
fail? Oh, you're dead. Are you serious? Please
save yourself. Oh you did. Holy fuck. Alright
what are you going to do now? You still got movement
and a bonus action. Are you going to do anything
else? You've got a dagger in your off hand. You've
got movement. You can't do a medicine check but
you can run and stab if you want. No I have to
stay safe. I'm going to die myself. If I run
and stab I'm going to die myself. Okay. Not if
you're within movement distance. You disengage
at rivers. He would have to chase you down, but
he's probably going to fuck me up because I'm
right there. You can't disengage because she's
only got about a section left. Oh, well, never
mind. Yeah, I'm going to have to just not do
nothing else. All right. Throw some shit at him.
Throw a bubble, I said. All right, he's going
to move up because I'm war hammering you. He
misses. Good. Thank God. It's the only fucking
chance I had. Vladimir Tutin, death save, and
it's the last one. We're gonna lose you already.
Woo! Save! Wait, was that three saves? Yeah.
Then you're stabilized. You're not gonna have
to make any more, you're not gonna die. You're
at one HP. Yeah. Carrion Cross, your turn. He's
in your face. Go on. I'm gonna try and melee
him and hope to god it works. 12? No. Yeah, of
course. Why would it? Uh, yeah, that's it. Farrah,
your turn. Vladimir's alive. Don't touch him.
I will stab him. Not Vladimir. Good, you're awake.
Not Vladimir. And disengage. Okay, give me a
stab and a disengage. Saying that out loud now.
With a short, I'm gonna short sword. Short sword.
14? No. Give me advantage. You've got another
one on him. No. Alright, it's his turn. Well,
I disengaged and got safe first. Then it's his
turn. Let's see how far he goes. You can move
only a little bit. Because of how far he was.
So you're like 10 foot from him. Vladimir Tootin,
it's your turn. One HP, brother. He's exactly
your movement speed away. But if you want to
shoot him, that's fine. I'm going to take one
for the team and just run up on him and try to
short sword him because I get a plus two on that.
Okay. As long as there's two people up on him,
we get advantage. Twelve plus three plus two,
so fifteen, seventeen. Yes. And then... Alright.
Oh, no. Shit. Not... I looked at the wrong one.
Oh, that's plus 4. So anyway, it's still good.
1d6 plus 4. Ah, shit. 5 damage. 5? That's good
in there. That's 5. Let's hope that again. Alright,
anything else? Pray. Pray to gods. Yeah, pretty
much. Pray to the first one. The first vampire.
Pray to him. Your turn. Oh, my turn? Oh, nice.
Hmm. Should I go spell or attack? You've got
to figure out a way to not take damage. I've
got to figure out if it's wiser to have him do
a check or try to beat the AC. Well, from past
experience, he's failed some checks. Yeah, I'm
doing the check. Total dead again. Should have
put a curse on him. He's already cursed. So actually
his strength and dex checks have a disadvantage.
13 wisdom check. Okay. He fails. Good. 1d12 of
damage. Fucking duck. 3 damage. What the fuck?
He's getting really hurt. He's really, really
bad. He's starting to feel the pain. I wish I
had any type of bonus action. It's your turn.
You're about 10 feet from him. Vladimir's next
to him, sticking to the short sword, carrying
and slashing with a fucking bloodslife. I move
up five foot and short sword him. Short sword
him. Roll with advantage. Yes. Eighteen. Yes.
Yay, finally. Three damage. Alright, it's his
turn. He's filling these pests. I disengage.
Snack him in the back of the head. Move at full
movement speed. Just enough that's enough away
from his... Okay, you stepped out of just out
of range, and now you're going to turn around
and try to hit Vladimir. He's going to take swings
back and forth. He's just battling off everything.
He's desperate. He's desperate. He's surrounded.
He misses. Thank God. Roll a two. And now I will
stab him. Yes, it is your turn. Stab him good.
Lord Brighthide Fearsome. 15. Right yet. Yes,
15. Advantage. Advantage. Well, that was with,
because it was 9 plus 4, then plus 2. You get
advantage from muscle. Oh, that's worse. That's
8. Yeah, you missed. Barely. Carrying cross.
Your turn. So, 16. Alright, swing. Roll it again.
He's cooked. 16. Yeah. On the money. Good. 24
plus 3 to 4 plus 3 so 7 Yeah, that one comes
through and like takes a good yash and like you're
seeing his armor breaking and like He's he's
getting like weak. His arms aren't holding up
his hammer or hammer quite good good Farrah your
turn I'm gonna short sword him again short sword
16 all the money Six. Ah, he had six health up.
No way. Yeah, yeah. So you guys are just... Everybody's
just whacking him. We're down to like one HP.
Yeah, just freaking beating this dude. And then
you guys are surviving off of no HP. And he finally
falls. And as this body drops, he just kind of
like withers away. And you see this like radiant
light, almost like a soul, just like fade out
of him. And he leaves there dead. I grab it.
I need it. You grab it. You try to grab the soul.
Okay, give me a... Really, really, really, really
good dexterity check to see if you can grab a
soul. 14. Yeah, no. That soul just slips right
through your fingers. Go for blood. But yeah,
you feel that after all the blood that's been
shed, there may be more to clear out. There may
be more to find about these evil vampire hunters
that have destroyed and assaulted your lair.
That'll be a time. To figure out for another
time. Yeah, I've got to find a cubbyhole to sleep
in. Find us a little hole to sleep in. Thanks
