Before we jump into our session for tonight, Robbie, you got an announcement on the call.

Thank you guys.

First of all, I just want to thank you very much for letting me do this.

It's very nice.

So

I want to announce that our video game Date Everything is coming out soon.

A lot of you are in it, but if you haven't heard of it out there, it's a really fun game, super cute.

You play like this lonely shut-in who has a remote job.

They get fired day one.

And then they get this gift from a secret admirer called the Date V8 or glasses.

And then you put them on, and suddenly everything in your house comes to life.

It's humanized, super sexy, and romanceable.

Like literally everything?

Literally everything.

The toaster, the microwave, the air, even concepts and ideas, your very own overwhelming sense of existential dread.

The game itself, 1.6 million words, 27,000 choices, and over 100 100 characters.

Whoa, yeah.

And where can people get this game, Robbie?

It looks phenomenal.

I'm amazed at the programme.

Marisha, you have some programming announcements at the end.

I do,

you guys,

we're reaching the end of our journey here.

I know I said that last week, but it's true, so I'm going to say it again.

And that means there will be no new episode of Critical Roll next week.

Time to get caught up, bitches.

But we have some very big announcements to come in a state of the role that will be hitting next week.

And it's a lot of big stuff.

Awesome.

Can you date?

Well, you can date your telephone.

Can you date your telephone?

Yes, you can.

Obviously, you can date your telephone.

And welcome back.

So, last we left off, Belle's Hells, after trekking deep into the depths of the red moon of Il Omen Ruidis.

You found yourself at the very core, and after sending Ludinus's form

scattering into some sort of an oily, bubbling substance, you stepped into the central chamber where Imogen of the two Ruidis born accepted it within.

As you watched it swell and grow to a monstrous size and began to to step towards its exit.

Just a few temporary hit points, it's fine.

You all rallied around this terrifying entity, trying to beseech your friend who seemed beyond your reach.

As Imogen, somewhere within the consciousness of Perdathos, sought to engage with the shreds that remained of the two gods it once swallowed in forgotten history.

As you battled it, trying trying to peel back its hardened carapace and the blue-green crystals that armor its torso and body, you began to see opportunities to reach for your friend, where you managed to free one of the two lost entities.

By eating it.

More or less.

In a moment of crisis and panic, Laudana placed the bequeathed legendary mask of the matron upon her face, discovered it was a fake crafted by one of your own companions, Breyus.

And through some rapid finagling, your terrifying form of dread,

you placed your face into it and, as such, briefly transported the consciousness of you and the rest of your troop into the matron's realm to have a discussion with her.

There, in that stretch moment of time, you came up with a very curious possibility on how to deal with the current Pradathos God situation on Xandria.

After expressing this possibility in a bit of banter, your moment came to a close and you had to choose one of or two of a

number of boons that the Matriard could provide.

As you stepped back out of her realm and into your conscious selves here, back on the moon, you chose the recovery of some of the arcane knowledge that your group had expended, as well as a brief swell of lively experience and temporarily gained two levels.

Finishing destroying this entity as it crumbled,

its form shattering across the room as innumerable shards of broken ruity and glass, you had a moment to breathe in silence and process what had happened before the room itself began to shake, as erupting from across the chamber, a massive kaiju head of Perdathos, currently furious,

began to burst through the ground where two of its massive claws

reached out to to claim vengeance and possibly reclaim its vessel to ride out and beyond to feast upon the quaking gods beyond the divine gate.

So,

let's go to have all your role initiative again.

What are you doing?

He's gonna grab you and jump back.

You can have a conversation.

It'd just be on your turn.

Can I ask a question?

Yeah, yeah.

In that time between

level one Perdantos getting smoked and now,

was there any kind of like breathing room or is it instant

a few moments could I I know it's in since we're re-rolling initiative could I have cast a shorty spell in that amount of time like a minute a minute I'll minute okay what are you casting all right so I yeah after that spell I think Dorian was emboldened and confident for like the first time and I'm just gonna kind of give myself a little touch between the forehead and I'm gonna cast

it's not a short spell it's it's it's a big I'm gonna cast ninth level foresight whoa ninth oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah matron gave it to us yeah yeah yeah yeah what is that it's great you get like a who are you casting for

myself yourself

okay I'm sorry

so with the

this this

you're used to doling out inspiration and taking it where you can but as the threads of fate themselves still echo in your mind from that brief return to the matron's realm and coming back into this space, a bit of lost arcana focuses in your mind.

And as you hold on to that distinct, unique thread, you grasp the markings of this ephemeral spell.

And as you release it upon yourself, suddenly

at all points, you can see just a few moments into the future.

And it's like these two different possibilities are overlapping, and you have a brief, stuttering moment of the moment ahead that's always right beyond your vision as the spell foresight takes effect.

So now you have for the next how long?

Eight hours.

Eight hours.

You, I believe it's initiative on all attacks, ability checks and saving throws, period.

Advantage on attacks, ability checks, and saving throws.

A little bit of genomantics.

Yeah.

And then other creatures have disadvantage on all attack rolls against me.

Pooh.

Spell it backwards.

It's poop.

I see it.

I see it.

It's always been there.

Wow.

Whoa.

Upside down.

Boob.

Where are we saying?

Are the hands backwards or is he doing this?

It's...

I see.

Their current location, they don't seem like

they're coming from any particular

form.

They're just kind of emerging from the ground in places.

What?

We're not going to see a dick right around here.

Come on.

That would probably break TOS.

But nevertheless, 25 and 20.

You should do that.

Yep, yep.

Vantage on initiative.

Yeah, so 23.

Wow,

23.

All right, we have Dorian up first.

Oh, dumb.

Nobody else above 20?

I have a 19.

Listen.

I have a 19 as well.

I have a 21.

I forgot to add my initiative.

I got above a 20.

So Dora's remote chat.

All right.

Rollies.

Rollies.

Rollies.

Rollies.

Let's go.

Girlfriends, rollies.

I'm also in Rollies for 19.

19 as well.

Yeah.

Three-way rollies.

Let's go.

Roll Rollies.

We got a 19 out of our rollies.

18.

12.

13.

Okay.

All right.

So that was a three-way rollies?

Yeah, image and image.

Terribly.

And then I thought I was going to get to go with my girlfriend.

Oh, that would have been great.

Third wheel.

Third wheel.

Get out of your ashes.

You've got the soda.

She's got the popcorn.

I've got to be in the middle, Corinne.

I love it.

An warm-headed 18?

Yeah, 18.

Oh, so Imogene rollies.

So you're at the end of that.

Imogen.

That's a high.

That's a

triple.

That's high.

Yeah, that was high initial.

I got a 12.

Oh, I got 13.

Sorry.

Wait.

Okay, so.

And

Breyus the Betrayer.

That's his full name.

Okay.

Alrighty, friends.

As these massive claws go streaking through the air, their fingers kind of reaching, their massive scythe-like claws kind of cracking in the air as it expands.

And the gargantuan crested head of Ferdathos roars.

Its mouth lights up bright with like a glowing blue light, and you see a flicker of black energy within too that seems to

black energy where?

Within the core of its throat.

What?

In his throat?

Okay.

All right, Dorian, you're up first with Chet on deck.

Let's go.

Okay, where is everybody?

You have Lodna over here, Chetney over here, Reyes there,

Ash and Fern are clustered up front with Aurum, and then we have Euro up there, and Imogen is over to the right side.

This is super serious.

God,

okay.

Could I...

I'm going to fly and get like right in the middle of this triangle in between Ash.

Can I get there with 40 feet?

Like to the ground?

Yeah, how tough.

I need a particular radius you're looking at?

Yeah, like I'm trying to catch everybody 30 feet.

Okay, yeah, so you could lower yourself and do that.

Yeah.

That's totally doable.

Kind of at an angle.

Out there.

You can get anywhere at 30 foot, right?

Okay.

Yeah, cool.

And that would catch you.

That would catch everybody but Chetney and Imogen.

Perfect.

Okay, yeah.

I'm going to go ahead and be...

I'm going to cast...

I think I can only do it at fifth level.

I'm going to do mass cure wounds for those.

just we're starting off go for it so it's 5d8 plus 5d

sorry

allow you to see these

try

like a federal

castle ligma pretty soon

oh do you see this

plus seven seven eight for 1422 plus 325 healing

for whoever

is in the morning except for Chetney and Imogen.

Oh, amazing.

Yeah.

Okay.

Oh my god.

Hey.

Blue boy.

I'm out of bardic, so that ends my turn.

Yeah.

Out of your turn.

Alrighty.

That's huge.

Finishing that go, Chetney, you're up.

Jesus.

Yeah, yeah.

Let me go.

This would be good.

Question.

I had my brand of castigation on the former Gundam Pradathos Imogen.

Yeah.

Does that transfer to this one?

It transfers to this one.

It does.

Just to the head.

Yeah.

The arcana is still bound to it.

Like, even though the form's shattered, like, you can sense where it goes.

And, like, Imogen was one I picked up on it.

You kind of felt like, even though it shattered, it was still kind of ever-present.

Almost like it's just all around you for a minute.

And then once the head emerges, it focuses once more.

So the brand would be on this.

Amazing.

It's so fucking high up there.

You know what?

It's just ahead.

I'm going to get close.

Can I go 40 feet towards it?

Sure.

It's going to be an athletics check to climb up the side here if you want to go ahead and lean on the long side.

Athletics, which I have advantage of because I'm a...

I do indeed.

I wonder if we can.

It's a natural 20.

For a 30.

You leap up into the air and clear the majority of it, landing right on the cusp of this edge right there.

Amazing.

That's just out of melee, right?

Like five or ten out of the way.

Do you not want to be in melee?

I do.

I would like to.

Yeah, that is within melee or excellent.

Don't you fall.

I can see it slowly going and slowly doing it.

Can I take two swings?

Actually, I'll take...

Yeah, I'll take three swings with

my claws.

Yes, you may.

Crimson Wright.

Let's do it.

First one

is a...

Seven.

That is a, it's a 19 to hit.

19 does not hit.

Okay, good.

We're figuring this out.

We're figuring this out.

Let's throw a little bit higher.

That's much better.

17.

It's a 27 to hit?

27 does hit.

Okay, 27 and the last one.

Dirty 20.

Dirty 20 does not hit.

Dirty 20 does not hit.

On the dome.

So somewhere between

one hit.

Cool, cool, cool.

Wiener schnitzel.

He's basking in.

It's not safe.

Christy.

Chrissy, where are you?

Would you see the previous Crimson Rite damage still apply?

That was a six.

Okay, so

19 points of slashing damage.

Nice.

And the Crimson Right is lightning.

Right.

So you strike through it as you do, your clog hits.

looks like a density of this crystal matter kind of in this rough around its neck and so you tear through it and it damages it but none of it quite gets through to the meat of the

Perdathos head uh it looks like this this crystal is almost like a an armor that holds a specific or absorbs a bit of the damage

also in striking the crystal as it shatters around you this like reverberating hum that always kind of operates around Perdothos in this chamber you hit it

as a crystal shatter

There's like a psychic feedback that blasts off its head and you take three points of psychic damage.

Oh, that's good to know.

Also just hitting the crystals or from hitting the head?

It's just all around the head.

From it striking towards the head, the crystals seem to absorb the blow that he dealt it.

And when you impacted the crystals, you took

psychic damage.

Only because I don't want to fuck it up.

Because of the temporary level up, I got branded the voracious, which means I get advantage on saving throws from my bloodlust feature, but I also get on a branded creature advantage against the branded creature while I'm in my hybrid form.

Could I roll one more time?

Yeah, I'll allow that.

Okay.

One more for the top one.

That's crap.

Is it a 20?

That's a natural 20.

So the third hit would be a crit.

So I'll allow that.

So you strike with the side.

The first one still misses.

The second one hits and glides through a bunch of the crystals and like reverberates off.

You get kind of furious and angry, kind of tapping into your woven form and then strike for a crit on the last one.

So take those 19 hit points back.

That was what I did the first time.

So it's 7, 14, plus, five.

Does the 19 still matter?

Because that still hit.

I'm having you roll both of those.

Although, the second one wouldn't crit, right?

Yeah, because the third one missed.

Yeah, anyway.

Okay, so we're taking this back.

21 plus 5.

28 points this time.

Already.

And that'll be it, I believe.

Yes.

So do all the attacks have advantage?

Oh, they do.

So the third one, I get one more.

You get one more to go.

It's natural one.

So this is anyway.

Miss, crit, miss.

Great.

Awesome.

All right, finishing your go.

What's that?

Alright, so it is.

It is now initiative count 20.

There's that damn thing again.

After you smash into the head, the head,

the ground seems to tear open and it

vanishes beneath.

Oh, no.

We did it!

This stone

explodes in a shower of dust as the head

appears

right there.

It's moving independently.

Do I get a reaction attack?

Unfortunately, no, because as it burrows through the ground, by the time it leaves your melee, it's underground.

So you'll be striking the dirt.

Shit myself when it moved in front of you.

Also true.

It appears right before you brace.

Oh my god, he's gonna be able to swallow us.

No, don't even say that.

He probably wasn't thinking of it until you said it.

Yeah, right.

My god, won't protect me.

Okay.

That's a good idea.

Image it.

It's your turn.

Oh, okay.

Oh, fuck.

Save us.

This is it.

I'm gonna.

How do you do this?

Dirty, dirty, dirtis.

All right.

Thanks, Matron.

I'm gonna cast cast Blade of Disaster so this

rift of the red energy where my Rylarens were coming through before it like opens up, but this time it's like

sharp and it has its own form.

It can move.

The rift just starts spinning around.

And I'm gonna do it right above the head.

Alright, right above the head.

Right on the head.

Alrighty.

It's a sharp lands up there.

As the blade itself appears, it has like elements of kind of the faintest kind of Rudian glass, kind of a marbling through it.

And your kind of purple-ish bolts like

arc up and down it as it kind of spins slowly in the air.

So you get to make two attacks with it, your spell attack.

That will be a 23.

23 hits.

Okay.

So that's 40, 12, I think, force damage.

Okay.

Ooh.

Okay.

21, 28, 27, 20.

Okay, wait.

Sorry.

21, 28,

34 points.

Whoa!

A force damage.

Super good roll.

That was a very, pretty high roll there.

So, sorry, was that 38?

So, 30 34.

34.

34.

And then I do it again.

Awesome.

Okay, so first off, the strike hits

and the

crystals across the head, it carves through and they shatter from around the sides of it and it cuts into the actual flesh of it.

It looks like it's broken open the glass shield that it seems to keep around its neck.

Amazing.

And so the damage actually cuts into part of it.

Now, I have a question.

Yeah.

With my transmutable,

with my transmutable spell attacks, I can change...

I think it's only with Elemental.

Just ignore me.

I'm just going to keep going.

So I rolled a 10 plus 14, 24.

That hits.

24 hits.

This one's not as good.

13, 15, 20 points of force damage on the second hit.

Great, though.

Yeah.

Two carvings that this one just goes through and just like starts slicing into it the force damage.

The blade just kind of

cutting off sections of its outer like hide and it's like heavy, heavy armored like outer shell.

Okay.

So that's your that's my bonus action bonus action for my action

I'm going now I have a question what's your question

do the hands make individual saves

like if I attack the hand with a spell that's got like an intelligent saving throw can I do that you can they while it is a singular entity and it's based on the similar

they all share some of the stats at least so they wouldn't take individual saves and be affected individually.

Okay.

Okay, I'm gonna mind you, if it's a spell that affects a mind,

it won't affect the hands likely.

So the hands can't take sidekick damage.

They can, although

the whole form is still psychically resonant, I'll say, at its size as well, but like you couldn't like try and charm a hand.

Right.

Yeah.

Girl, those nails are clustered.

Okay.

But I'll say that because of the glass, which is particularly psychically resonant by its build,

you could probably focus on that to try and like harm the space there, yeah.

I'd allow that

should see this bitch try and type.

Oh, God, what do I do?

I want to do this.

I want to try it just to see how it does.

I'm going to try to mind sliver the hand.

The hand in the middle?

Sure.

All right.

It's an intelligent saving throw.

It is.

Beat the thumb.

Natural one.

Oh, cool.

And so

that bitch takes four d6 psychic damage for me.

Alright.

The hand, but the hand takes psychic damage for me.

Amazing.

That's cut.

Okay.

Five, seven.

Seven plus five is twelve.

Twelve points of psychic damage.

But then

and subtract one d4 from the next saving throw

that that hand takes for my next turn.

Did it look like, from my perspective, that the psychic damage was effective?

Or did it?

From what you can tell, the hand kind of like tenses for a moment and the hands relax and kind of like flex for a moment from the impact.

So it can take psychic damage.

Same thing.

Okay.

Okay, good to see.

Alright.

Good to know.

Do you want to move or you want to stay put?

Well, I'm afraid it's going to turn this.

The head's going to turn into a.

I'm going to scoot over right here.

Okay, so you go ahead and

glide over to this spot here.

Alright, end of your tournament's gonna spend two legendary actions.

There we go.

Let's use one of its special attacks.

It's going to use Shriek of Oblivion.

So that glowing mass of black energy that's like billowing in the throat as the crystals that do remain around its head also take on that darkened coloration like it had done in the previous phase of this battle.

All the crystals just go jet black.

Its eyes go jet black and that small little black void at its throat just gets larger and larger.

All of you, kind of in the center of the room, feel the temperature begin to drop.

And it's kind of like you hear all sound disappear for a brief second.

Just quiet.

This absolute shrieking beam of black energy just

like arcs out with this high-pitched tearing noise and just carves through everybody right there in the middle.

That sounds usually associated with death and stuff.

I would like

to spell an ability.

find it through.

I would like Brais, Fern,

and...

Technically it's not going to get Mr.

And then also Ashton.

I'm small and I'm still there in case you can't see me.

It's a line, so it will not get you or Mr., but it will get Ashton, it will get Fern, it will get Braayus, and you should all make a dexterity saving throw for me, please.

All right.

You have my sympathies because I'm a bloodhunter.

Is this a spell?

Is this a...

You got a D4.

Anybody who's within 10 feet of me still gets a D4 because

I haven't dropped that yet.

Is this a spell or other magical effect, right?

I would consider it a magical effect.

You would?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay, so.

Wait, is it a spell?

It's a magical effect.

Alright, so.

Burn.

23.

23, you just managed to dive out of the way.

Woof, and it whips by with no impact.

Oh,

nice.

That evasion.

Ashton?

No, that was just a save.

19?

Just a good save.

Ashton, you try and move and unfortunately it catches you in the shoulder and almost pulls you in and you feel yourself just kind of tossed and curled in this space.

You take 62 points

of necrotic damage.

Yeah, it's just a giant disintegrate.

Braus, what'd you get?

18.

You also take 62 points of necrotic damage.

My god.

Cool.

As both of you just get caught up in this beam, it's

like slowly withers into a small beam and then vanishes and it closes its jaw as black, kind of soot-like energy kind of billows out the side like steam vents.

And the two of you just feel like you were like spiritually ravaged by some terrifying essence of a long-dead god.

Oh,

boy.

All right.

We're going to have a smaller class here in a second.

With that, Ashton, you're up with Laudna on deck.

Oh, my God.

Spread out!

No!

He'll be in a line!

But it can teleport.

Yeah, but

just make triangles.

Triangulation!

Make complex shapes!

Circles!

Okay, okay, okay.

Serpentine.

I don't know, I don't know if I'm within.

I assume that I'm within striking range of that hand.

We still have to get into melee with it.

Okay, but I'm not, I mean, it can't, if I try and get around it, it can take its wipe.

You are within its melee range, but it is not within yours.

I'm going to move over to get some advantage

on this.

Just shift there to get in kind of opposite melee with Fern.

Yeah, just so I can move around a little bit more.

I want to try save.

And

I'm going to take my first attack.

Let's go.

Ow!

Ow!

Kill it!

Yep, working on it.

17, 20 to 32 to hit.

Something stupid.

And that's...

I can re-roll that one.

I don't like that.

Ugh, even worse.

Uh that's uh 21 points of damage.

21 points of damage.

Alrighty.

Yeah, yeah.

For me, that's that's fine.

A heavy crack into its side as the fingers kind of pull back for a second.

They kind of grasp in the air near you, but you continue.

After that first right-handed swing, I'm going to try and just come back with a left-handed swing.

And oh, that's awful, but it still will probably hit.

That's 21 to hit.

21 hits, yeah.

Oh, okay.

The hand?

The hand?

Yeah, the hand.

21 feet to the hand one.

Oh my god, stop it.

That's better.

That's 24 points of damage.

Nice.

Nice.

From that back hand.

And then I'm going to...

I know we were in the line, but it's worth it.

I'm going to roll around so that

I've got

Fern and Orem within 10 feet of me so they can maintain the

25 feet to get over there.

30, 35, 40 next to Orum.

30, 35, 40 to get you about there.

Yep.

Which means Orum can get in the radius, but Fern will just be out of it.

Oh, is Fern's more than 10 feet away?

Correct.

Oh.

Fern's.

Okay, that's fair.

Orum, because of your passive perception,

you notice that as Ashen is hammering into the side of this hand with each impact, the head seems to recoil slightly with each of the impacts.

So there is a connection amongst them that you pick up on.

Damaging between what?

There is a connection between the hand.

Damaging the hand, damages the The face looks ouchy.

Yeah, a little bit.

A little.

Got it.

He's on the ropes.

At the end of your turn, Ashton, it's going to use its last legendary action.

It's going to go ahead and activate the hand there in the center.

It's going to be one of the limbs of a Perdathos, the Evolving.

The Evolving!

It's going to go ahead and

it's going to take a meteoric slam attack, so it's going to make an attack against all creatures within five feet of the arm,

which is Fern, Ashton, and Aurum.

So it makes an attack of all creatures within five feet.

The hand curls into a massive fist, raises up, and then like pulls its fist straight down into the ground like a hammer and blasts this radius right around it.

So everyone who's immediately next to it, it's going to hit.

So against Fern, that is a 28.

That hits, that hits.

Natural one.

And against Ashton, that's going to be a 31.

Oh,

my lord.

Just, just above her.

That just hits.

So

Ashton and Fern both take

26 points of bludgeoning damage.

Halves

for me.

Right.

And does it take damage for striking you with melee?

Fern?

Oh.

Because you're flaming force.

Yes, but you take a D8 of

fire damage.

It also blasts you all five feet back.

It doesn't blast me five feet back.

Oh, yeah.

Three points of fire damage.

I'll also hold on to that.

I can do something very quickly.

Five more points of damage.

Where is it?

This is Amelia Tech, so I'm going to do 1d8 fire damage just because

it'll not.

Yellow.

That's four points of fire damage.

And technically, they should be pushed 10 feet away from me, but I don't know how that would work.

This actually cannot have its...

It cannot be pushed.

Very fair.

Alrighty.

With that finishing Ashtons go, Laudena, you're up with Orm on deck.

Okay.

Win the game.

Win the game.

This is it.

This is the move.

I take out my ball bearings.

No, I'm just kidding.

Yes, let's go.

Felt the pinball say, My secret wins.

I'm going to reach out to this hand that's right in front of me, and I'm going to go, honestly, it's a pleasure to meet you.

We've heard so much about you.

And I'm going to shake its hand and do Hunger of the Shadow Shard.

What?

Okay.

I'm going to just

gonna zap a little bit of a zence out of its body.

Let's go and see what happens because I'm kind of curious.

Alright, go ahead and roll for an attack.

Okay.

24.

24 hits.

Fantastic.

It's 48 plus 5.

I should have prepped these D8s.

That's right.

They're not anodized ball bearings, but they'll do.

Six, seven, eight,

nine, eleven,

fifteen,

so twenty points of necrotic damage.

Twenty points of necrotic damage.

And I get back a warlock spell slot.

Yes, you do.

So that's your action?

That's my action.

And just like

just because the nature of this, why did you just reload?

I did not ask you to do it.

Okay, we're fine.

I didn't touch it.

It reloads.

Since the nature of that spell is to like suck the essence, like the magical essence out of it, do I like get anything?

Do I sense anything from make an inside check for me?

Okay.

Inside check.

Don't look at it.

Don't look at it.

It didn't count.

I didn't know what it was.

Does it have a peanut strategy?

That's not enough.

Find out.

Why she rolls?

Okay, okay, I remember this is good, dude.

11.

11.

I mean, you don't gain any new information.

You do sense that there is, it is drawing a power source from within itself that it's already done in the previous phase before, where its crystals darken.

So that's there.

That's all you can really ascertain, though.

Okay, that's okay.

It was worth a try.

Alright, do you want to stay put?

The other...

Well, no.

Would you,

is this whole placed in like dim light?

I'd say it's fairly dim light, although the crystals glow and like the place kind of can change and shift based on the lighting.

But it's kind of generally dim light.

I would like to use my brand new shadow walk ability that I just got, where it can teleport 120 feet

into a place of dim light and or shadow.

So that's part of your movement or is a bonus action?

That's a bonus action.

Yeah, I mean,

there are all manner of sections where there is shadow, like in the crevices, not in the central battlefield, but any place where there isn't like a crystal cluster you can teleport to.

Or where you're not in a line?

Preferences.

Can I?

Oh, I know.

I'm all up in that.

Can't I be like

a little crazy and maybe get like up here?

That's crazy.

I got a shadow.

If you want to, there is,

well, from what you can see,

up here there would be some shadow, probably.

Okay, I'll do that.

Okay.

And then I'm kind of

you step, if I move around to here to find a bit of shadow on this side, and then

you operate over onto this part.

That was cool.

Thank you, matron.

Whoa!

And with that, he's done.

Sure, there.

Story of white pear.

Alright, that finishes Loden.

Alright, although that rock and stone just blasted past me, but I'm so small that it all missed me.

I start to

sprint around this way.

I'm going to leap up onto Braish's shoulder and kick off and try to spring onto the God Eater's head.

All right, so go ahead and roll an acrobatic check for it and get the machine for that.

That is a 20, dirty 20.

You leap up onto the top of its crested head.

You do leave the attack range of the claw, so it's going to attack opportunity on you.

Absolutely.

That is going to be a 30.

Yeah, that hits a little bit.

Wow.

All right, so its ruinous claw strikes towards you.

Ruinous claw.

That's cool.

Oh,

Phil Rebirth.

This is as he's passing me, yeah?

Yep.

I'm going to use my reaction

to

activate Truth Bearer, Fable Plate of Uthor Benbach.

Yes.

And impose disadvantage on this attacker.

Okay.

That reduces it to a 17.

Misses.

Yeah.

That's a four.

Wow, nice.

There you go.

Fable Plate of Luther of Ben Bach.

You have to say this whole thing every timer doesn't work.

Yep.

Plus a blade of Windseeker?

Is that what you're saying?

Alright.

Sorry.

Alright, so from that, that goes ahead and his forms leap onto it.

The attack strikes towards you.

As you feel like the shadow coming over you, Breyus steps in and just kind of deflects it off of the shield as you dart off of Breyus and land onto the top of its head crush.

I hear him shout the name of his armor and the giant hands slam into the ground.

I land on top of this thing's head, hold up a blade blessed by the wild mother, and begin to slash into its eyes.

Here we go.

Go for it.

Why did I do advantage?

They were both 18.

Could we call it 18?

Sure.

All right.

What do we call it?

If it was any different, I would say we roll.

Yeah, I can roll.

I can roll again.

No, it was, they were both 18.

They were both 18.

I saw four.

So that is a 20, that's a 32 to hit.

So, and I still have

he's still covered in, or I'm still covered in small little tendrils of vine and dark flowers.

X is still up.

So, first slash is 22.

One dive.

Second one, probably going to miss.

As a reaction,

it's going to use condensed glass.

You watch as it cycle bleach, pulls glass shards from the nearby ground into it and immediately gains 20 temporary hit points.

No!

Get rid of the shield.

So the first tactic, how much damage it was?

It was 22.

22.

Alright, so two points of damage to get across to Parkoff.

It wipes out the temporary hit points, but you do immediately take from impacting the crystal shards around it.

You take eight points of psychic damage.

Half to four because of my potion of invulnerability.

How long does that potion last for?

It's a.

I don't remember.

I don't remember.

I don't know.

Definitely an hour, not 10 minutes.

Even if it was...

Definitely an hour.

10 minutes.

Even if it was a minute, he just took it.

For one minute.

He just took it, though.

He took it.

He took it at the end of the last fight.

And if I allowed him a minute, he gave.

DM, give it

DM, take it away.

Don't feel bad.

It would have probably been the same thing.

So the potion of vulnerability, unfortunately, is no longer in effect.

He just took it.

It's Robbie's fault.

Hold on!

It's the only hurt effect on the body.

There's only eight points in a second damage so far.

But you've blasted through its briefly condensed splash shield.

Sure, second attack was a 17 and misses.

Well, that's miss, unfortunately.

Next up, we have a 21 to hit.

21?

Just misses.

Just misses the head.

Okay, so the head is

21 missed.

Yeah.

So that was one slash out of three.

I will action surge since I'm up here.

Okay.

Same exact roll.

So that misses.

That's a 22 damage.

22 does hit.

Okay.

22.

10.

21 points of damage.

21 points of damage.

And for the last one, as I'm just trying to carve it,

I keep rolling too.

That misses.

Very low.

Its head is like shifting around as you're trying to hold on with your shield in one hand and the blade in the other.

Your couple of strikes just go free into the air, not quite hitting it.

You bring it down and jam it in a couple times and actually like...

push about a good solid foot into its uh top of its head crest and then pull free kind of an arc of Pergatho's blood kind of spraying through the air as you're barely holding on as it's shifting, kind of like riding it.

Does that finish your turn?

No, with my 35 passive perception, I realize that I did almost nothing and say, ah,

think we're kind of fucked.

That's the end of that turn.

Okay.

That finishes Aurum's go.

It is now Perdathos' turn.

Fuck.

It's his turn?

No.

After Aurum, after Aurum.

Perdoth.

Perdathos

is going to first make a special attack.

It's going to use Maw of the Red End.

Stop it.

Yeah, yeah, that's a good one.

Against you, since you're on top of its head.

That's going to be 25 to hit.

Yes, sir.

Alright, so you take

Pratra.

I hear that's a good drama score.

Protra.

I attended Pratra for two years.

38 points of piercing damage.

Don't worry, I have my potion of...

Nope, I take 38 points.

38 points of piercing damage.

As the head, the head, as you're trying to hold on, the head seems to like buck upward and kick you off the front of the nose and you go tumbling into the air.

As you're spinning in the air, you kind of look down and see its mouth

open up from below and its teeth.

come down onto you and so that piercing damage is all of its razor sharp teeth shouldn't have crash crushing into your body and piercing your torso.

Make a strength saving throw for me please.

You're You're being bitten by a god eater.

That is a dirty 20.

Dirty 20 is

not enough.

Oh my.

You watch it as Aurum is devoured.

Yo!

Fuck it away!

Just

vanishes inside and opens its mouth, and the glow from the inside begins to build again, and Aurum is nowhere to be seen.

Aurum, you are now like squeezed down into this, like, somewhat rugged, almost, almost calloused-feeling gullet that is glowing all around you.

You are just surrounded and being restrained by like a glowing tube of leather, it feels like.

I steal my bonus action, right?

You do?

I suddenly appear next to Chetney.

Whoa!

Yeah.

Mr.

Sex.

You all just see, like, as it opens his mouth, a little burp.

And Orm appears, kind of barely kind of holding onto the edge.

Wow.

Hey, Bob.

It's also going to, it's also going to attempt to activate Linz.

On a one, two, three, it'll be one.

1.

On a 4, 5, 6, it'll activate 2.

On a 4th.

So...

He gets 2 kills.

Why limbs does he have?

The one, there's no one over there.

That one is going to go ahead and attempt to do another meteoric slam.

Oh, it's not new limbs.

It's activating the limbs that are already out.

This one, yeah.

So that's going to be an attack against...

No, Fern got pushed out of the range.

No, it's gonna do ruinous claw against

you know what's gonna do catapulting blow on you.

Oh, okay.

Catapulting blow.

That's all this shit is made up.

25 points.

That's gonna be

you take 25 points of bludgeoning damage.

Reduced to

12.

12.

And you should make a strength saving throw for me, please.

Bad.

12.

I'm real bad.

Yeah, I'm not good.

Strength saving throw.

Yes.

Alright.

I think you're right.

You have very light healing, but it's not.

I do not have advantage on this, do I?

Raging, you do.

Oh, raging, I have a vanage.

Oh, okay.

Strength-saving throws.

Oh, thank God.

Thank you.

Well, you only rolled one.

I did.

It was 18.

18, so that roll again for your other one now.

Yeah, not as good.

It was 18, 20.

Oh, God, it was great.

20, 20, 30.

There you go.

Strength save is great.

Strength save is fine.

Yeah.

Okay.

Gotcha.

So the hand tries to grab you and throw you, and as it reaches for you, you kind of bear down, your feet sink somewhat into the ground, and you hold firm.

And the hand just can't quite tear you from your current position before releasing you.

Imogen, as you're backing up watching the field, suddenly there's a spray of rock to your side as

bursting out of the ground,

another

is now kind of reaching out into the air and is going to attempt to claw into you.

But if its arm is that far out, it would have a real hard time to get through the crown where I am.

You're true, and we'll see how it does.

Well, it's a 20.

But imagine.

It's weirdly more flexible than you'd expect.

Imagine

Dracula?

That hits me.

Okay.

So you.

You know what cartilage?

He's got no kneecaps.

You take 22 points of slashing damage as it just strikes down and carves in you, like pushing you against the wall, and you feel kind of the warm sting of its claws that cut across your torso and your shoulder.

Would that have been considered like weapon damage, just for my reference?

That would be

a melee attack.

So it would have been considered more or less weapon damage.

Okay, I would say, yeah.

But this attack crits on an 18 plus, so you're lucky he didn't roll that high.

So it's Ruinous Claw Attack is done from that, and then it finishes its go with a.

Alright, so now it's used Miracle Devour.

You see in the space around the head, the air just seems to kind of...

That hum, that psychic hum.

It's like louder and rhythmic.

Fern, you're up with Brace on deck.

Hello.

Okay.

So what I'm gonna do, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take my

scorching ray shots at fourth level and I'm gonna shoot it at the crystal all around his head.

Try to take out all that crystal.

Are you sure you can't polymorph into a giant crystal arm or some shit?

You are in technically in melee range with just one.

I have a question.

Well I was pushed back.

You were pushing back five feet, but it's really short.

Let me track one thing real fast.

Will his arm still have the same

melee distance as the other arms or because it's really big?

Does it have like a map?

That one has a longer reach.

That one looks pretty cool.

This arm goes up to another.

Yeah, that one has a 30-foot reach.

Jeez.

30-foot melee!

Yep.

But it.

Can't touch the thread at the base.

I was on his armpit.

Those are some long nails.

You have a hard time.

Those are some long nails.

The nail, technically.

The nails along.

Or if you're within five feet of a hustle targets, no, you're fine.

Yeah, you're right.

Yeah, it's not not attack range, it's fine.

I just had to remind myself that rule, so.

Okay.

Alright, scorching ray at hit.

Where's the head?

At the head, at all the crystal around the head.

At what level?

At fourth.

Fourth level.

Okay, so it's going to be

five scorching rays, I think.

Yes.

Yeah.

Yes.

Okay,

so.

Let's start us off here.

So we go balls.

We should have given ourselves

one of those other boons.

Anything else?

Anything else?

Buyer's regret.

Yeah.

That's buyer's strategy regret.

23.

23 hits.

Okay.

Alright, four more.

That's higher.

Yeah.

So that's another hit?

That's 24.

Alrighty.

Three more.

Natural 20.

Let's go!

Alright, that's the middle finger is the crit.

Okay, okay, okay.

What are the other two hits still?

She's hit with all of them so far.

Okay.

That hits for sure.

Alright.

Whoa.

26.

Alrighty.

And that hits that.

Oh my gosh.

You just like, after all this impact, watching your friends get thrown about, watching Orm get swallowed and just barely escaping, the massive arm breaking through.

The intensity of this battlefield is anxiety-inducing, but you tapping into both the ruinous born within you, the phase strength that you have, and the flaming titan that exists, it echoes within your spirit.

You hunker down and release five massive rapid-fire columns of arcane fire towards the head.

So go ahead and roll 8d6 and then roll 2d6 and double that.

So roll 8d6 first.

8d6.

Okay, so that's uh

legible dice.

I am, I am, I promise.

Okay, four, five, six, seven.

Okay, I'm not using any of my teeth.

Okay, okay, okay.

Okay,

so 16, 20, 28,

20, 7.

I'm trying to figure out 20.

Okay, 30.

Wait.

Okay, 30 points of fire damage.

Yeah, no, I think you missed it.

Wait, 10, 20, 16, 20,

24, maybe not.

27,

29,

27,

29, 30.

Okay, okay, okay.

30 points are 20.

30 points fire damage.

Roll 2d6 and then double that.

Okay.

From the crit that you hit with.

Baby teeth dice.

Don't ever use the teeth.

I know.

So

four

double to eight?

Yeah.

Okay.

These are all sugar canes.

And then

an additional D6 from your form, and an additional D6.

A D8 from my D8.

And a D8 from Mr.

Got it.

So that's four points of damage.

Total?

Total.

Alright, so a total of 42 points of fire damage on this round.

Massive hits.

Flames curling up it.

It was so hard.

Not a deal.

It shrunk your shirt, Laura.

I know.

It shrunk your cool.

I won't go.

All this excessive hate.

That's why I don't do reloading.

I can't pull my sleeves down.

Awesome.

So that's your action on your turn.

You have a bonus and movement.

Okay, okay.

So for movement.

You can move anywhere within 15 feet of that hand without escaping its combat range.

However, you are also within the attack range of the master.

That's kind of like a bad spot.

I kind of just want to move out of its, like,

if it's...

Like,

maybe to the.

Yeah.

That's about as far as you can be without leaving that that hand's melee.

All right, I will do that.

And then technically

that would move you out of the melee of that hand.

Didn't that

use its reaction, or that was before its turn?

That's true.

I mean,

I don't actually know.

They each have their own independent reaction.

Of course, they should.

Okay, and then Mister's gonna throw some shit.

Go for it, Mister.

Do Mr.

Mister?

That

is

16.

16 plus.

28.

28, that's a hit.

Save us magic.

Okay.

So that's.

Balls it up, gets ready.

Burning on the side.

If a massive kaiju could look incredulous at being shot on from a monkey, it would be.

Wait, that's too easy.

Hold on, one second.

That will be

nine points of damage.

Alrighty, another nine points of damage.

Alrighty.

That's that's a 51 points of damage in that round, Fern.

Not too bad.

Nice.

Alrighty.

That finishes Fern's go.

Grace, you're up.

With Dorian on.

Oh, God.

I don't know.

I'm going to hit it.

A bonus action.

I'll cast Staggering Strike

at

fourth left

Actually, you know what?

Hold on.

At the end of Fern's turn.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, change your mind.

No, no, no.

At the end of Fern's turn, it's gonna go ahead and spend one of its legendary actions to use telekinetic vacuum.

Just such a mess in here.

It's frustrated that you got away.

No, you know what?

The one that really got away and vanished is Lodna.

Laudana, make a shrink save for me.

No!

Does it know where Lauden is?

Does it have tremor sense?

I just tie it in and arms because it's nice.

You guys know.

Dickie.

Even if she rolls it, it's not.

Even with a crit, that's the only way.

That's the only way.

Do it.

Then just do it.

It's on the boat ice.

It's on the boat.

I can't.

I can't.

You.

that.

I can't believe that.

That bone ice fucking rocks are helping me.

You guys, babe rooting this shit is crazy.

Everybody start yelling.

Get your dice.

Let's go.

So,

that like buzzing sensation in the air suddenly gets oppressively angry around you long enough.

And you feel like this energy is starting to pull you from the rock, your feet start to lift off.

You just grab and buckle down the shadow in your body extending in the shadow claws as you dig them into the nearby rock, and you just hunker down until eventually it fades.

No effect.

Alright, continue your turn.

Okay.

I will activate staggering smite.

I can't believe that shit.

And

I will shout at the beast.

My God will reward me when I smite you and I will swing.

I will swing big and I will roll a.

Jesus, what is that?

Oh, 17?

No.

No, that one?

That one.

Oh, that's a good one.

That's terrible.

Wait, but I have pluses.

That's a 20.

That doesn't hit, does it?

20 to 2.

That doesn't hit.

Okay.

22.

22.

I will roll again.

I will roll it.

You're moving into melee with it?

Yes, yes.

Melee.

Second attack, much better.

That's a natural 20.

That's an add dang!

Okay!

Yes.

Okay.

So that hits.

So that is.

Oh, boy.

Oh, God.

Too much math.

There we go.

Let's go.

I doubled everything?

No, not the smite.

No, you doubled any dice you roll.

So the spell does how much extra damage?

The spell that I cast is a fourth level spell.

Uh-huh.

And it does an extra

4d6 damage.

Alright, so roll your weapon damage.

Okay.

Including your general, like, divine special d8 or whatever.

Yes.

So weapon damage is just 11 points.

So 11 points in the dice.

Alright, go ahead and roll your 4d6.

15.

Okay, so that's 26.

Alright, so now go ahead and roll.

Are you smiting as well?

I can also divine smite, right?

Yes, you can.

Yes, I only have a level three spot left.

Level three spots left, right?

Is that right?

So it has to be

bigger.

Ah, where's my spells?

Nope, I'm out of threes.

Oh, no, I have a three.

Yes, so I'll use three.

So that's three d8.

That's these two d8.

I believe it's two d8

for the first level, and then it's additional ones forward, right?

So it would be 48.

You're totally right.

Yes,

that's

terrible.

Nine points of that double divine spike.

Okay, so that's 26 goes to 35

doubled to 70.

Plus, what's your weapon damage bonus?

7.

So 77 points of damage.

Oh, actually,

that will do.

And because I hit him with this staggering smite,

he must make a wisdom saving throw.

On a failed save of wisdom 19,

bad things will be.

23.

Sorry.

Take your measly 77 points of damage.

Okay, okay.

That's crazy.

But that heavy strike, the first one as it swings wide, wide, like the head pulls back, and you just catch the edges of crystal, and your poison pen kind of flickers off the crystals.

You angrily spin back, and as you do, you feel the surge of power granted you by your deity.

That vengeful fury of the hells below, you channel them into yourself.

And please describe to me the color of your smite if you don't.

Oh,

it's usually black ichor that sprays all over the place.

But in my furious rage, fueled by

flecks of red start to dance

in the smite.

And in fact, my black and white body starts to take on sort of a red sheen.

And

you see me now less as a cowman and more as a devil man

because the white and gray fur is starting to become red.

You don't have a cow face?

That's right.

All right, does that finish your turn?

Yes, that's finished.

Also, I.

Oh no, I'm gonna move.

Okay, you still have 20 more feet of movement.

I'm going to stay within melee with it, but rock to the right.

Okay.

Clip clop, click clop, clip clop.

You will leave the melee range of the hand.

Okay.

Bring it.

Correct, because that one did.

No, that one already took a...

Did you take a reaction?

But that one took a reaction on you, so it does not.

So you just can move aside.

You're right.

I was like, no, that one already took one.

Okay, that finishes your go raise.

Dorian, you're up with Chetney on deck.

Two more points of damage for Mr.

How do you want to do this for his flames?

Because I added plus four, but it's a plus six.

No, that's great.

Doreen, you're up with Chetni on deck.

Yeah, I think Doreen, after watching just Braus absolutely kicking ass, and everybody's just doing all this,

he has this tiny moment of just sort of feeling

fearful and incompetent again.

No.

I know, I know.

He has foresight.

As he's floating in the air, but he uh he closes his eyes and says, uh

I am Bronte Wyvernwind,

only son of the Silken Squall.

And then he thinks of his friend Chetney as he looks at him across the thing, teasing him forever about being royalty, and goes,

you're prince.

And then as I do at seventh, ninth, eighth level.

I'm just kidding.

At the eighth level.

At eighth level, I'll cast a crown of stars.

These little nine moats will sort of pop up around his head.

For my action...

Is it seven moats?

It'll be...

Or is it nine?

I'm going to cast it eighth level, which I get two more.

Okay, so

I'll have nine moats.

You got it, nine moats.

And then for my bonus action.

And then for my bonus action,

I'll look over at Ashton, just looking rough as heck.

And I'll cast.

I'll cast healing word at

fourth level as a bonus action.

Can I do that if it's beyond first level?

That's two spells you've cast on the same turn, unfortunately.

Even if it's at the same

action, a bonus action.

Correct, yeah.

I can't cast it at all.

I won't do that.

Yeah, you can only do a hand trip in addition to a spell.

Okay.

I want to help you.

I know.

Do you have any healing potions?

I don't.

Actually,

I think I have two.

Yeah, I do have two.

These will be adorable.

Okay.

So instead, I'll use my bonus action to send one of those moats shooting at the hand that Ashton is engaged with.

The hand right there?

Yeah, yeah.

Okay.

All right, so go ahead and roll attack.

Yeah, it would be

plus nine.

It's the first time I've done this.

Let's see.

Spell attack plus nine.

Oh, it's not gonna do it.

Not gonna do it.

19.

I know.

He just fails in the hand, unfortunately.

Oh, with advantage.

Oh, why is it advantage?

I do need advantage because I get attack subtle.

Please.

I gotta take my future.

Please be good.

Oh,

that's better.

24.

24 hits?

Yay!

Okay, so it's...

That spell came in hit.

It really did.

Use that nine bubbles fell.

15 and I get two of them.

No, great.

It's 50.

17.

17 points of radiant damage.

And that will finish my turn.

As it strikes and impacts, that hand is looking like it's starting to sustain some damage.

And of course, part of that damage causes the head to wince.

Nice.

All right, Effin, do you want to stay put?

Yeah, I like my position.

Okay, you got it.

So finishing finishing your go, Chen, you're right.

I'm going to

pat Orm on the head and go, back in the fight.

And I'll jump, sort of jump and slide down the

embankment as I head down towards the head.

Coming from behind?

Yeah, and across from Breyus.

Yeah, exactly.

And seeing where Breyus moved to, I'm going to flank.

You got it.

And with my

bonus action, can I cast Bane?

Okay.

No, that's an action.

Ignore me.

I'm not going to do that.

I'm going to take two swings with Turmoil, actually, instead.

Let's go.

Here's a revenge.

That's 28 to hit.

28 hits.

The second one

is...

Oh, so close, but not quite

29 to hit.

Yes, they both hit.

As a reaction, it's going to use condensed glass to gain 20 temporary hit points.

That is turn sense.

And so the glass fills up around it as you're sliding in to strike it and you watch the crystals kind of build up around its face.

You son of bitch, I will use a curse against you for that, I swear.

That is.

Oh, nice.

That was a reaction that it did that way.

Oh, you know what?

Actually, hold on a second.

I'm gonna retroactively pull that back a little bit.

Okay.

So he didn't get the 20?

No, he did do it as well.

At the top of his turn, he actually regenerated 50 temporary hit points

at the top of his turn.

But Fern burned through the majority of that.

So yeah, so you tore through it and brusted it through, and the damage will still come through.

So yeah, so but as a note, you're watching at the top of its turn, it regenerates all those crystals and kind of gives it an additional shield.

We have things that can make him not.

So does the 20 at this time.

16 plus 6 is 22.

The first one did 29 points of damage.

That breaks through the temperature hit points, leaving nine to go over.

And then 22 on the second strike because of sneak attack and the crimson right and stuff.

Right.

Now it says turmoil.

Does do additional thunder damage?

It does, thank you.

One D8 each time.

That was the whole point of doing it.

I wanted to see what the thunder did.

So that's one point of thunder damage.

And eight points of thunder damage.

So nine to eighteen.

Alrighty.

Gotta get back on that thunder horse.

I don't know what that means.

Also, great song.

Yes, Thunder Horse.

For my bonus action, I'm gonna use Blood Curse.

Blood curse of bloated agony on the head.

Okay, all right.

For the duration, creature has disadvantaged on strength and dex checks and takes 18 necrotic damage if it takes more than one attack on its turn.

Okay, are you

amplifying it or not?

No.

Okay.

Just the one.

Alright, cool.

Got it.

Alright, does that finish your go?

Yes.

Alright, that brings us to initiative count 20.

It's going to go ahead and

see here if it can move.

13

can only

move one of them.

It's gonna go ahead and

hold there

this one

It's gonna go ahead and appear and shift over

there

Does it drag through the ground or does it pull down into the pulls down into the ground somewhere else

and then burst through again

kind of getting a

kind of bursting out on both sides of fern right now.

Both the hands are like curling up.

Alright, that finishes.

Even Perdathos.

That one's going to stay.

They're going to stay.

Alright.

At the end of Canadian Count 20 and 10 and 10 Esther's going to use his other two legendary actions.

No, no.

I've seen this in the middle.

No, no, no.

Screech of the Ravaged Mind.

Screech of the Ravaged Mind?

No, I wasn't going to be able to do it.

As the center of Perdathos' head kind of tucks in, its teeth clench, and you can hear this horrible, like, grinding, scraping sound as its whole jaw pushes in, its eyes close, and you watch as the crystals kind of

get brighter and brighter until the entire room gets extremely bright in the area, like long shadows being cast from all the nearby rock and crystals before it

opens its mouth and no sound comes out.

But all of you feel this piercing sound in your mind.

Everyone within 30 feet of the head has to make a

constitution saving throw.

Okay.

30 feet would be

Chetney.

Technically, Lauden is just out of it.

And technically, so is Forum.

But Breyus, Fern,

Mister.

Oh, you're right out of the range, Dorian.

Mister is just out of range, too, but Fern's within 30.

Mister's out of range?

So it'd be Fern, Breyus, and Ashton.

Wait, let me see.

Ashton?

Oh, wait, I get advantage on it.

Ashton is within 30 feet, yeah.

Just barely.

So, Constitution Saving Throw.

Alright.

Advantage on that because of Brandicastigation 22.

22 is shot, but that is just enough to succeed.

Oh, Jesus.

Just enough?

No advantage on Convo at all.

No.

So that would be 24 points of psychic damage reduced to half.

12.

Oh, Jesus.

Help us.

25.

25 is a success.

So you take 12 points of psychic damage.

Okay.

Fern?

Woo!

Four.

Really?

20.

I say 25, was it?

Four.

24.

24 points a second.

You can use it once per turn.

Passions and singles, what?

But maybe it'll be something bigger.

Because one of those ones was like 50 something.

I'm about to have a barber down.

Barber down.

Listen.

Or at least take it.

Or evasion.

Barber iffy.

Well, evasion

has to be against an attack.

This is kind of a blast, I think.

I just wanted to let you know that I have.

a spell.

Hold on.

So I can't do that.

Invasion saves dexterity saves.

Sorry, don't dexterity.

Specifically.

Which this constitutional attack.

Yeah, so uncanny dodges.

We need a melee attack.

Sorry, I got the mixed up.

Don't you have unknown?

Yeah, both specifically.

Correct.

Yeah, but

then I take half damage.

If I do unkenny vitamin R if I should save it.

You still can't use it against this, because it's just a radial blast.

A physical attack against you is what you get to uncanny dog.

Okay, 25.

It's fine.

It's fine.

So 24 points second damage.

It's fine.

Alright, with that.

Oh, I can't take out 25.

25 on yours, so you also take 12 points second damage.

12 points.

Alright, Imogen.

It's your turn with Ash and on deck.

Okay, okay, okay.

Look, what I'm going to do, I'm going to use my movement.

And I'm going to come around here.

Little, little, little, little, little, little, right here on this side of this hand, like here.

Right, so.

And I'm going to line up these three motherfuckers.

Come on, bitch.

Yeah, that's a good shot.

At eighth level,

I'm going to transmute my lightning and shoot out a blast of thunder damage.

Thunder!

Thunder!

Okay.

Thunderbolt.

Alright.

Oh, quick note.

You weren't concentrating on any spells, right?

I was.

No.

I was.

No.

You were?

What were you concentrating on?

My smite stays.

My smite?

It stays?

It stays.

Well, make concentration through.

Uh, that's uh 11.

11?

I took 12 points of.

Yeah, you maintain concentration.

Well, wait, wait, oh, but you have disadvantage on it because the Screech of the Ravage reminds you to disadvantage on concentration checks.

That's an

18.

Yeah, you're fine.

Okay, which one is it?

Right.

Track, well, I have to make one for Hex as well, because I got bit.

That's true, yeah.

Hex is now.

Well, no, I'd say it's the same kind of entity.

I'd allow it to stay.

To stay?

Okay.

Not gonna argue.

Not that for me.

So roll 2d8 for the two damage you did earlier.

2d.

I'm doing 2d 8 for damage.

So 2d6 for your hex.

That you did two strikes before and didn't roll for hex damage?

No, no, I'm saying I have a concentration spell up.

Hex.

Correct.

But did you roll the hex damage for the two times you hit before?

Yeah, it just rolled it right into the number.

Okay, great.

Alright, so we're good then.

Sorry.

So, you were doing a thunder lightning bolt, arcing

those.

All right, let's go.

So go ahead and roll damage.

What level are you doing it at?

This is an eighth level.

Eighth level?

Oh my god.

Okay.

This one goes to an event.

So that's 13d6.

13d6.

Oh, do you want to split it?

And over there?

No, I don't need to because.

Nails with a three.

The center hand.

That's going to be an 18.

Fail.

Mail.

The head.

That's going to be

an 18 as well.

Fail.

Yes!

It's going to use

Legendary Resistance to succeed on the head.

Okay.

And it's going to use another one to succeed on their hand.

So it's used two of his legendary resistances, but now essentially,

you're doing straight damage.

All three would have succeeded, so you would be taking half damage, but because they're vulnerable, they all take full.

Okay.

11.

That's a lot of dice.

Yes, it is.

I don't know if I have enough.

12, 16.

13.

No, I got it.

Okay.

We're not talking about.

Y'all have it.

I have a sound dice.

Oh, Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's so good.

12.

So they're 12, 24,

34,

um, 34,

38,

40.

Guys, 44.

This combat is brought to you by WizKids and their tastes of Xandria charms available for pre-order.

Now discover some of Xandria's tastiest treats.

Show off your love of Scanlon's hand pies, pocket bacon, and strong jaw hail with these 11 unique charms.

48 points.

Pre-order today at your local game store, wizkids.io/slash tastes.

Oh, my goodness.

Did any of those get doubled, or is it did they all save?

They all saved, so just straight damage as opposed to half damage.

So it's 48.

However, the head takes half damage from the two other ones that you've hit.

No, none of them saved.

You caught?

But you legendary saved.

Two legendary resistance I burned so that they could

save.

But one of them saved, correct?

None of them saved.

They all failed.

The hand, the first one failed.

Right, that's right.

They all failed, but you only need two legendary resistances.

Right, so this one is going to take the full brunt of the damage.

Okay.

Which causes it to shatter entirely, blasting into glass shards throughout the chamber.

That one already looks pretty hurt, and it's blasting into this head as well.

That head takes

so

it takes 96 points of damage.

Oh!

Oh my god!

And I'm gonna do two strikes on the head

with my bonus action.

Custom Parathos piece.

Shout out to Coleman Gibbons.

12 plus 14 is 26 on the first spectral blade or barrier blade or whatever the fuck is.

Okay, so that's

she's going ham.

Horse girl is going ham.

20

27,

28 points on the first hit.

All right.

Come on, come on, come on.

Wait, that's 18.

That's a crit.

18 is a crit.

Oh,

yeah.

Can we hear your shit?

From your shit still.

When it crits, 12 d12.

When it crits, it does 12 d12.

Oh my god.

Oh my god.

Oh my god.

Oh my god.

Is force the same damage as thunder damage?

No, they are different managed.

They are are

not damaged.

Oh my god.

Is force

just as standard damage.

21.

Thunder is the one it seems to be.

24.

24.

Why?

36.

Because the crystalline structure of it seems to not do well with the body.

Oh my god.

51.

That's it.

57.

59 points.

No!

59 points.

Hold on.

So

in one round, you've done over 170 points of damage.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

And so as this blast through, the one hand explodes and shatters, the arm in front of you kind of like recoils and slams into the wall.

Stone and bits of glass like fall and shatter across the ground around you.

You have to kind of shield yourself.

You look past at the head, it's kind of its head kind of pulls back for a second, its jaws slack as it kind of like

has to knock it back into place.

And you You can see inside its mouth a lot of its crystalline teeth have kind of shattered and broken off at the side and the head just looks kind of like seared and burned really bad.

I have a wood chisel.

That's my move.

I'm not going to move because I don't want to take the hit.

All right, that finishes your go.

Ashton, you're up with Laden on deck.

Damn, what's that?

I have noticed that the head actually does damage when people hit it.

Like when you hit the head, that clearly it does damage to you.

The head takes damage when people hit it.

But like like you take damage when you hit the head as well

uh it's possible okay you've seen people get hurt when they hit it yeah all right all right shit fuck

um

which of these two hands looks like it's having the worst deck um

right now the the large one that's nearest uh you cannot see anybody near it at the moment but that one just got blasted with a thunderous bolt of lightning where actually where are you laura i'm behind this giant you don't know oh

actually you would have seen her like you would have seen her by move behind you see the source of lightning bolts you can ascertain that.

I'm gonna line that up for some advantage, and I'm just gonna run at this thing.

I'm gonna take a just fucking jump at it, and I'm hitting it with that fucking elbow break right there.

Alrighty.

Because I don't know what else to fucking do.

Here we go.

That's

1424.

1428 to hit.

So

I rolled a concentration check by the way and I saved.

So cool.

Alright, so that's

2d6.

Fuck it.

I'm going to roll a chaos burst into this just because, you know, yellow.

I.

It ain't going to matter.

It's too little.

It's too little.

It ain't going to matter.

Stop pinking.

So.

Which is fine for one round.

So that's going to be...

Oh, lightning.

That's nice.

So that's going to be...

That's a good thread.

Oh, I did that wrong.

Sorry, hold on.

It was actually I rolled lightning again, so it doesn't matter.

Okay.

Five points of lightning damage, it never changed.

Okay.

And then comedy.

So what's the total nut?

That was.

Five points of lightning damage, and then

23 points of normal damage, 23 points of blooding damage.

Okay, got you.

Alright.

And first attack.

That was first attack.

Second attack.

No!

Dead.

Yep.

Oh, thank God for advantage.

That's

25, 26, 30 to hit.

30 to hit, that hits.

Let's do another.

Come on, dude.

Let's do another chaos burst, see what the fuck we get.

That's

7.

That's psychic damage.

We'll see what psychic damage does.

Four points of psychic damage.

Alrighty.

Plus

25 points of budgeting damage

okay

great

and uh is it fucking worth it

um

no because i mean like honestly if i roll this perfectly it's just like

20 hit points

nope

uh i'm going to

um i'm gonna scoop back so that i'm not into and not in the the realm of of uh actually towards me.

Okay, like there?

Even a little further.

Just not, I don't wanna trigger it, but I wanna get out of the cone of a fair.

Yeah.

Okay.

That finishes your go.

That's what I got.

All right, Lodna, you're on deck.

Lodna, you're up with the orm on deck.

Okay.

Um.

I should have gotten closer to you.

Oh.

So you can still get it before.

Okay.

A few things have changed.

Just a few.

I know.

And it kind of changed my plan a little bit last minute, but.

I've got an emergency.

I've got an emergency suit.

What I will do.

Long to text last.

Long just hex last.

Now we're cool.

Stop checking.

Um I'm going

to

goodness gracious.

He's plotting.

We're plotting.

Don't look at our side.

Sorry.

Once again, things changed a little bit.

You're stalling.

I'm not.

I'm not.

No, I'm teasing Travis.

I am.

Would Bane help in this situation?

I mean, it does a 1d4 to hands and face, right?

You could do both hands and the head.

Would Bane, if I cast it on one, would I be able to,

so you'd have to cast them on all of them?

But you know what?

Fuck it.

Let's do that.

I'm going to cast Bane.

What's the range on Bane?

30 feet.

What's the range on Bane?

30 feet.

You're right.

Never mind.

That's not great.

That's not great.

Okay.

You got your man.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

I'm coming.

I'm coming.

Okay.

Very clinical.

I'm coming.

She said it just like that.

I'm coming, I'm coming.

Okay.

I've been.

Most things change.

Most things change.

It's the best ever.

One of the few family guy jokes, actually.

Yeah.

Oh, you're so big.

I am going.

Anyway.

Hi, kids.

I'll throw a fireball on his ass

at the fourth

level.

On just the head?

I'll take it right now.

Actually, no, I'll just do...

No, I'll do...

I'm not doing that.

What is happening on the camera?

Yeah, I'll do third level.

I guess on.

gosh, because then I would get brace, but also fuck him a little bit.

Yeah, exactly.

You can get both of them, but in order to do so, you'd get brace as well.

But if I scooch it this way a little bit, then you can.

But you're.

I'm immune to fire.

You're immune to fire.

Yeah, yeah.

So I'll do that.

I'll kind of go.

Okay, yeah, you can totally get the hand and fern.

Yeah, fern, that's right in this form, you're immune to fire.

Fire baby.

Yeah, you can do that.

Fernie, you're gonna feel a little tickle.

But you're sparing me.

Why?

We'll talk later.

You're not off the hook.

Level three fireball?

Level three, we're gonna just keep it simple.

Shoots down and

detonates a swirl of what color flame.

Oh, it's like a purplish black.

Purple black fire just bursts and swirls around the space.

Remember 8d6?

I'm getting better.

I'm getting better with fire.

That was so good.

Thank you.

The hand

fails, I think, with a 16.

Fails.

Yep.

The head.

That's much better.

That should be a 25.

25?

Okay, yeah, he saves.

On a deck save?

Correct.

Okay.

That's one deck save.

10.

15.

20.

It's more of a

psychic defense field that I have.

So 25.

It gets a straight bonus across all of its saving throws because of its

saving powers.

Much like how a paladin gets hit for its divine powers.

Yeah, 25

dimage.

Alrighty.

I am then going to quicken a spell.

Uh-huh.

And I'm going to do chill touch on his head.

Chill touch on his head?

Alright.

So the savings throws down.

I have to roll the hit.

Let's go.

come on

baby, let's go.

30 total.

30 total.

30 total.

Alrighty.

That'll hit.

Go hand roll damage like Chill Touch.

ADM.

Yep.

When you did that 30 feet first, everybody

castigation did six points of damage to you, of psychic damage.

Because it just attacked or yeah, anytime you attack me within five feet because of the brand of castigation.

That's true.

All right, great.

Points of damage to it.

Hell yeah.

Yeah, baby.

Yeah.

Okay.

No, the details.

That's important.

Good follower.

20, okay.

20 necrotic damage.

All right.

And he cannot regain hit points

until the top of my next turn.

Okay.

Although, have we lost any of it?

I used to seven.

Until the start of my next turn.

Yeah.

I'm assuming he's not undead, right?

Huh?

I'm assuming Pradothos isn't undead.

Prothos is not undead, no.

Okay.

Alright, cool.

So, good to know.

Does that finish your turn?

That finishes my turn.

Do you want to stay foot or do you want to move?

I mean, it's...

Can I even just scooch back just a little bit?

Yeah, further.

Scooch back into there behind the

rock up there.

You got it.

I still have line of sight and never fall.

You do, you do.

And you have half cover while you're up there as well.

Great.

That's my turn.

All right, Oram, you're up.

Oh, man.

Oram has been watching wounded Ashton this whole time, and he's moved so far away there's nothing I can't get to him.

So instead,

he is going to squat down and spring off of his perch and land in the crystal, kind of above and forward from Chet.

Right here.

In the crystal.

In the crystal.

Not that crystal.

Oh, this right here.

Ed crystal.

All right.

Into there.

Go ahead and make an acrobatics or athletics check.

Yep.

That is a 23.

Easy enough to do.

You manage to catch on a crystal and slide in towards where they gather as opposed to accidentally killing yourself on one of them.

And you catch yourself right there.

Would you say, since I'm diametrically opposite of Breyus, that I am in flanking?

Unfortunately, the flanking position is currently occupied by Chetney.

Okay.

So

you can't flank from all the angles.

It's just a direct opposite.

So as long as he's in flanking, you cannot get it.

But there's a creature directly between him and me.

Okay, sorry.

No advantage.

Trying to keep it balanced, too.

You can't all flank from one dude standing there.

Good checking out.

Good checking out.

Flank to flank.

30 to hit.

30 hits.

That is 21 points of damage.

I'm just, there's not much I can do here, so I'm just slashing away.

That is a miss.

All right.

And that is a 26 to hit.

26 hits?

And that is

30 20.

That's 20 points of damage.

Okay.

Yep, that's it.

And I look over to Ashton in the middle of it all, and I stay put.

That's it.

It is Pranathos' girl.

It is just

legendary actions.

You don't have to do this wine red, big, like

oil coming.

It's going to crack like shift.

The ground kind of cracks open as its head

vanishes beneath the stone.

Oh, he's going to pop up somewhere else.

There's nowhere to run.

Well, there's...

To be fair, the sword is going to be floating right about places to run.

There,

where it was.

Shut up, I just

got it.

There's nowhere to run.

And this is going to shift.

What if the head appeared like in the end of the arm?

Right there.

Emerges on the opposite side.

See if it gets

yep in the final.

Sorry.

I know, yeah.

Oh, no.

So

I wish Matt didn't know how to lock it.

First,

let's roll and see if it's a 1-3 or 4-6.

No.

It's a juice.

It only activates or only calls forth one limb.

Oh.

Oh.

Calls forth.

As in.

But we just.

No!

a high fire is.

Maybe it just goes high five.

This one here.

By the way,

I didn't get hit with that hand that's up there.

Okay.

Is that

what comes carving out there?

Try and keep a nice radius there as you vanish between the rocks.

It's going to begin.

Damn, people.

There we go.

Yep.

From there, it's going to go ahead and do Shriek of Oblivion, because it did return.

It's got a line there.

But this is the one if you succeed, you don't take any damage.

Correct.

It's an all or nothing.

So with that, that black energy

kind of spills from the inside around the middle of it.

It's like crystal rough.

The mouth opens.

Kind of this horrible shrieking sound out that tears across the field.

This horrifying beam just spills across and arcs upward.

I need Fern, Dorian, Boram, and Chetney to all make

dexterity saving throws for me, please.

Got a one, I'm re-rolling.

I got advantage of foresight.

You do.

Dex savings?

Yes.

That's a 20.

Roll it again.

You should roll it again.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Just for fun.

What if it's another 20?

That is the case.

Oh boy.

Alright.

So

advantage?

27.

27 is a success.

You take no damage.

Dorian.

Not 20.

Success, no damage.

Burn.

So constitution, you said?

No.

Dex.

Dexter.

Dex.

19.

Evasion?

Evasion?

Evasion?

A 19?

A 19 is a failure.

So evasion.

So you still take...

So you fail, you still take half damage.

Yeah.

So take half of 67 points of necrotic damage.

So that'd be 33 points of necrotic damage.

Don't say I fail the 16 points.

You take 67 points of hat.

Can I damage damage?

Can I, even if I use evasion

or getting used to these things on Canny Dodge?

Understood.

Well,

the evasion is what allowed you to half that because it was a dexterity save.

Yeah, you take half on a 10.

So evasion would be the 30 points.

Correct.

Uncanny Dodges versus attack.

Because that's a reaction to do that.

I mean.

Zero damage on a 6S.

I have 30 hit points left, so either way.

So you don't use evasion and

evasion and just die.

Oh, you didn't have.

She goes unconscious.

Fern, as soon as the black beam carves through and the black energy kind of arcs upward, the shadow scatters, and you see Fern flickering unconscious on the ground as Mr.

is coming up and going

and shaking her.

And or music, the 67 points.

So that's going to to start with that.

Now it's going to activate two of its limbs.

Whoa, hold on.

Hold on.

Space yourself.

What the fuck?

We will remember Fern.

She made a good sacrifice for the Lord of the Lions.

This one over here is going to come for Ashton.

She fought bravely.

No, it took a lot of damage.

It's going to come after Imogen.

I hear it.

I swear to hurt.

Alright, now it's going to come with you for

National 19.

Yeah, it's going to be a 33 hit.

That, that, that, that, that.

How are you?

Are you okay?

I'm okay right now.

I shouldn't say that.

I feel great.

This is for the ruinous claw.

I'm a ruinous born, so I'm immune to it.

Unfortunately, it's the same.

You can jerk.

29 points of slashing damage.

Wait, that was a national 19.

That's a crit.

I'm gonna smile.

Silver bars.

How far away from you are?

What's the range?

16.

It is 120.

It's over 120 feet from you at the moment.

So sorry.

So on that.

Sorry.

I said that was how much?

That was.

29.

29.

So we're taking off this.

Plus this

double would be 46 plus 6.

So it's going to be 52 points of slashing.

Sweet.

Fuck.

Didn't you just say you were doing five out loud?

I told you I shouldn't have said it out loud.

You took levels harder.

I took

real fast.

This hand over here is going to try and strike towards Lodna.

You do have plus five to your AC against the attack because you have half cover hiding it in those like alcoves.

But it's going to try and now reach for the one that's time throwing fireballs just out of reach.

So that attack's going to be...

Who though?

Would it have gone away?

How long does mirror image last?

A minute?

20 to hit.

Why are you asking those questions?

Listen, he was not invulnerable anymore.

She wouldn't have mirror images.

20 hit you.

It is one minute, so you're right.

Mirror image is probably gone.

20, 20 is exactly my AC.

Shield.

2020 with the plus five?

Yeah.

Then shield would cause it to avoid you.

Yeah.

So shield.

So as the massive claw

comes rocketing towards you, you bump it down and

release the shield and it slams over the shield and it grasps all the rock around you kind of cracks and you feel it shift and it's like the hand is just palming the shield around you as it slowly pulls away.

Bits of rock and stone and glass kind of dropping from its fingers as it pulls back.

Alright, and it's going to maintain its...

Actually, let me see if that comes back.

That does not come back, so it's Miracle Devour.

However, it did get its 50 temporary hit points.

No, no, no, no.

Regaining hit points is different from gaining temporary hit points.

I looked it up.

So

it can't heal itself, and so its Miracle Devour does not heal itself if it devours healing around it.

But temporary hit points are its own.

So it gets 10 hit points, but it can't regain hit points.

Correct.

So if we start healing, it's not going to take the half.

But it can get its 20 when it does the miracle power.

If we start healing.

So if you heal within a radius of it,

it can have your healing and then heal itself with some of what it does.

But it won't do that.

But it won't be able to do that until the end of your next turn.

That's good.

That's going to finish its turn.

Its crystal shield is up.

Finishing that go, Fern.

Top of your turn.

I need you to roll a death saving throw.

Come on, Fernie.

Don't roll the fucking T.

Roll a 20.

So I'm rolling, I'm rolling, I'm rolling a D20.

Yeah, and you're gonna roll a 20, and you're gonna get 20.

You're rolling a D20.

Do you want a 10 or higher?

Or a natural 20.

Natural 20.

If I roll a 20, what happens?

You come back on your 20.

You wanna pop up?

Yeah, you win D and D.

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

What does that mean?

Oh, should you do a one?

No!

Did you roll a natural one?

Oh.

So that's two death saves.

No!

You are one step away from death.

Alright, finishing Fern's turn.

Breyas, you're up.

We told you.

We told you the opposite.

I told it to, and I told it to not.

Our audio podcast listeners can't see all of our stupid cavemouth faces right now just hanging open.

So that means

I take whatever you want.

She rolled a one, Neil.

She rolled a one.

Reyes is fine.

How did we save her?

I can leave a mark, Matt.

We can hurt us.

Don't hurt us.

My home makes it.

You're dead.

Like, dead, dead.

Yes.

It's fine, it's fine, it's fine, it's gonna be fine, it's gonna be fine.

Stop it, get it together, get it together, get your fucking head in the game.

Oh, let's go!

Oh!

Are you yelling at your tiny titan?

Yes!

Yes!

Where?

Whose turn is it?

My turn.

Is it Joe?

It's my turn.

Actually, it is the.

At the end of Fern's turn, I'm gonna go ahead and

activate a limb.

I'm gonna have

to get it.

It's going to swipe at you.

Me?

Yep.

God damn it.

That's gonna be a 23 to hit.

Come on!

What?

Who's it swinging at?

Me!

Oh, shit.

I should have known from the

reaction.

Shit, shit, shit.

Alright, so with that, that's gonna be

21 points of slashing damage against you.

What for?

Are you still up?

Alright, pray, let's continue with your turn.

Can I ask a question?

Yes, you may.

So, my, would I be dra I wouldn't drop this form, right?

No, the form, the form maintains for the time.

The form maintains.

Okay.

Yeah, you were still on the ground, flickering, and like the flames wreathed around you.

You were just not conscious and on death's door.

Okay, okay, okay.

But it's, but Dorian's up first?

He will be

after Brayus?

Brayus is a healer.

I have a singular mission, and that is to kill

Prothis.

So, I will do that.

It would be so much easier to kill Prothis if you had to kill him.

Look at reason.

I'm an army of one.

Sam decides tonight to be evil.

Oh, God.

It's not evil, pregnant.

Really, not the moment.

I mean, how's it feel, Sam?

How does that feel?

You guys can convince me.

I am convincing you right now.

Look at my nipples and help us.

How are you convincing me?

Did you just show me your titty?

That might work.

It might work.

That might work.

Do it.

Can you roll a persuasion check?

I can't roll my titties.

Roll a performance.

One titty.

Wait, should she get a bit better?

Her heart's really not in it.

Oh, wait!

I have a really high persuasion!

20!

Whoa, shit!

What do I roll?

What do you want to roll?

Do you want to just do it?

Think what you want to do.

Hi, that's a very high tit roll.

You got a perky little booby.

Yeah, I saw some high titles.

Here,

here, roll it a 20 and add your wisdom saving throw.

Oh, that's pretty good.

I love that you're making it.

Or you could just save him.

So you can save us.

You're helping us.

Well,

you are momentarily

distracted and

briefly caught in the crossfire of a nipple flash.

Just barely behind this.

Like, you don't even see my face.

It's just a titty.

But it's like streaked with glowing

open zone.

Really nice, too.

It's been a rough few days.

Just think you could save two more of those on Fern.

There's more where those came from.

It's like you saw one of those globes at Sharper Image.

Reyes.

Rey's hands in action?

Act as you wish.

Yeah.

Is Leon hands in action?

Shit, that's my whole fucking turn to save this

fire lady.

I know you want to just say it.

Fire lady.

Do what you think you would do.

Okay, you do your thing.

You do you, Brias.

Pretend I didn't show you my tit and just be yourself.

How can I pretend that that didn't happen?

We didn't kind of go through a rigorous.

I have seen.

I have seen gods

appear before me before, and this is a divine sign.

I will take it as such and I will run.

I will run to Fern.

I will kneel down before Fern and pray to my God and say, my Lord, you have shown me much, but you never showed me that.

I have seen true heaven today.

And I will

touch Fern and use my last remaining lay-on-hands pool, which is three points.

But it gets her up.

It gets her up.

Now, in theory, you could save it and just do one, which is just enough to get her.

That's true.

Yeah, yeah.

It's honestly.

I will be selfish and save the other two.

So saying, from a technical standpoint,

that is pretty smart.

You might have to do that again.

Let me check points at this scale.

You know what?

Let me just see one more thing.

And because she's a bride of Asmodias, she takes

20.

Sure.

I'm actually back up to full.

I gave you a titty.

Out of it,

you take a chance, as with so many others, one glimpse of a booby in all religion justice.

Yeah.

And for my bonus action,

for my bonus action, I will...

Well, is Laudna within...

Sorry.

First bonus.

Just turn this in the beginning of the interview Mangelia.

Oh, God.

Is Laudna

within

inspiring range of me?

Probably not.

Laudna?

Gallows humor.

Yeah, you.

What's your range?

60.

I guess I could have done it before I moved.

Oh, you're way up there.

No, you're

way.

Oh, she's whole, my God.

She's halfway up.

Before he moved.

But you could have done it before you moved.

You could have, I would have, you would have been just in range before you moved.

All right, I will inspire Laudna by saying, I'm not all bad.

I painted this.

Oh, my God.

god.

Wow.

So good.

I'm a sucker for presents.

Give it to me.

I throw it to her.

Make an athletics check for me.

Okay, athletics is 22.

22.

You catch it in the middle of the air like a boomerang.

We're getting there.

We're getting so much.

It's an utter.

Do you have an utter ring?

Yeah.

Like there's also fierce?

Five utter rings.

Incredible.

Alright, I'm gonna go ahead and

at the end of your turn, use another legendary action to activate a limb.

I'm gonna go ahead and have the hand

strike at you again.

That's gonna be a 24-time?

Shit, are you?

I'm behind the limb.

Okay.

That's not a great damage roll.

Is we need 20 points of slashing damage?

Shit.

Okay, she's rocked now.

Alright, and with that, top of the Dorian, you're up with Chetney on deck.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, but I will on the next effort.

Give me that picture again.

I'm going to use my movement to fly up and engage with Big Hand 1.

Okay.

Sort of like right at the wrist.

And...

Oh.

Oh, because it's not.

Oh, because you're like peeking out of the door.

That's cool.

I like that.

I know.

I can paint it.

That's amazing.

That's amazing.

All right, Dorian.

You fly up to the edge of that wrist.

I'll draw my sword off my back, and I'm just going to start hacking away at the wrist.

Yeah, this looks very damaged.

Okay, good.

Yeah.

14, but but I have advantage.

No, it's better.

14, 23, 27.

27 hits.

Go ahead and roll that.

Okay, great.

5 plus 7, 12.

12 points of damage.

And then I'll take it.

You carve through with one massive slash, and you watch as you cut through most of the wrist.

The hand tries to claw in reaction, and it breaks.

And you watch as the hand falls off, the rest of it crumbling to the ground.

It was barely holding on.

Okay, great.

Yeah, I had more to do, but now I don't have to.

What do uh you still move?

Yeah, have

could I get to the other hand with my

other hand?

40 when I'm flying.

40, you could not get back to the hand, but you could get to the head if you want to.

You just have to land.

Yeah, let's do it.

Let's do it.

I'll fly over to the head and I'll use my

second attack.

Go for it.

So you're going to land on the ground right next to the massive head of Pardothos.

I got 17, 17, 20.

Yep, 17 and 13.

Yeah, that was 30.

Yeah, that hits go okay okay good uh so that's another six well bad uh have you doing constitution constitution saving throws by the way to maintain your blade

jesus christ that failed now oh no was that i roll i like rolled over all my other dice but yeah it landed on a one on top of my other dice

the blade vanishes i feel like uh that was only eight slashing but then i'll use uh my defensive flourish the blade did a fair amount of damage in the time it was on the blade

that's bad so what's that Advantage.

Do I get to use that on the damage rolls?

I don't.

No.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

So it's just

double damage.

I get advantage, because it's a con save making a concentration.

You do?

So roll one more time?

Come on, come on.

Go do it.

Come on.

Come on, come on.

17 plus.

Yeah, you better.

That'll hold on.

And you took a second swipe earlier.

We didn't roll four, so roll with advantage one more time.

Natural 20.

Yes!

The blade remains.

There we go.

A blade of buys, and we're still chilling over here.

Blade of vibes.

Awesome.

Blade of Byzantine.

Good on you, Laura.

Alright.

So just another little two points of damage slashing, and then I get an extra one to my AC because I did defensive flourish.

Great.

And then for my bonus action, now that I just learned how that worked, I'll do...

Now I'll do Healing Word.

Is Ashton within 60 feet, you think?

Ashton.

Maybe.

Maybe.

Within 60 feet.

Let me triple check and make sure it's 60 feet, which I think it is.

I think healing order is 60 feet, I'm pretty sure.

Yeah, okay, cool.

Yeah, so yeah, we've got a couple in 60 feet.

But that's only one.

It's one person.

Where are you sitting at?

Got it.

What are you sitting at?

I'm at 31 points.

And you're single-digit.

Oh, yeah, that's fair.

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Hey.

Hey, that's pretty good.

6, 10, 12, and then again.

Whoa.

What's 8?

Oh, I did it at level 4, so it's 8, 8, D4.

And was that 4, 4, 4, 12, 14?

That's great.

Wow.

12,

fourteen plus three

okay yeah uh 29 points of healing oh my god

yeah and uh

that'll do it okay oh better that finishes your turn end of your turn is gonna use his last legendary action there

do you have do you have healing solutions by the way uh no i gave it to my mommy

Oh

that's right.

Yeah.

It's gonna activate limb.

Okay.

Okay.

And it's gonna attack you fern.

No.

Okay.

So so you're up but you're up so your death your death saving throws have cleared

up tilter manium

how to turn to get up

so it has advantage on the attack because you're prone okay

except it doesn't because I'm gonna impose disadvantage thanks to Truth Bearer fabled plate of Uthar Vendrom

I'm gonna tell you an old wow joke when we get to break that's this fits perfectly for

so that's gonna make it a 20 to hit with a disadvantage what's your ac my ac is is 17 17 it's gonna hit you do i

that's it evasion do you have you have do you have shield do you have spell push

you can do that do you want to

do it yeah i mean

that would be the time that'll make it miss the time to do it so you go ahead and expend one of your first level spell slots has a rogue arcane trickster

cast shield on yourself and it just arcs past you almost sending you right back into the darkness you barely avoid being thrust into an unconscious state once more.

That disadvantage saved your ass, too.

Yes.

Thank you, Brace.

No problem.

He's Naval.

So, with that,

finishing Dorian's turn at Chenier.

Time to make a change because you're the same as the.

Do the deal.

Do the deal.

You have dead.

No, I know.

Okay.

With my bonus action,

I'm going to do, I'm going to go off the range here.

What are you doing?

With my bonus action, I'm going to click my boots of speed, which will

up my speed to 80.

Oh, yeah.

I'm going to break for Imogen.

All right.

And I'm going to use...

I'll get you right there.

Nice.

I'm going to use the Staff of Dark Odyssey

to cast Blink on you.

Yeah.

Which will take you off the map in between turns.

Oh, my God.

Can we still teleport out of here if we need to?

No.

But I think we were already smoked on teleportation.

I don't know.

We got to protect the big guns and they all are the same level.

Okay, for sure.

So that'll be two charges and you'll have Blink on you.

Thank you.

That's massive.

Solid.

That's massive.

Do I roll now?

You are now concentrating on Blink.

Yes.

So you know.

So I'll mark that there.

I will inhabit yourself.

And how much

do I have any distance left over?

It took you 80 feet to get there.

She was 80 feet away from you.

Amazing.

Nice.

Wow.

I will.

Well, I was going to say, I'll fall over like I passed out.

I'll take out the sword and say,

you still have a bonus action.

Bonus action was clicking the boots of Springfield.

That's right, yeah.

There you go.

That's my smash.

And that's if I roll 11 or higher, I blink out.

Yeah.

Okay.

All right, that finishes your turn, Chetney.

It now comes to

the second or the level 20.

Let's see if it moves one or two.

I know.

Yeah, it's going to be two movements.

So,

this hand

vanishes beneath and then emerges right next to the two of you.

Yep.

Mess up.

Kind of actually right between the two.

So it now has all three of you in combat range.

And then this hand is going to shift

and just locks itself kind of out in the open so it can keep as many people as it can within its melee range.

Whoa.

Imogen, you're up with Ashton on deck.

Okay,

oh, Jesus.

Oh, Jesus.

Oh, Jesus.

Okay, I'm gonna, for my bonus action, uh, use a spectral my blade.

Well, beginning of the turn, or it's the end of the turn she rolls for it.

I think with blink, it's the end.

Yeah, blink is the end.

Okay, so you're gonna move the sub-spectral blade up and over near this?

Yeah, my my blade of disaster.

Let's go.

Alrighty.

So go ahead and roll for an attack.

10 plus 14, 24, 24.

Okay.

Um, 16,

uh, nineteen, twenty-four points

of damage.

Jeez, Louise.

Sixteen plus fourteen, that definitely hits.

Okay.

That was a bad roll.

Three plus three is six.

Plus three is nine.

Nine points.

Nine points of damage on that.

You got it.

Alright, so striking into it, carving through the hand.

It kind of does a fair chunk of damage to the base of it.

That claws kind of sweeping it around, kind of taking in the space.

The head's still wincing with the attacks that the other hands sustain.

Is that your bonus action?

God.

What's your action?

God.

Okay.

Got a sixth level left.

So I'm going to do...

I'm going to move over.

Sorry, chat.

I'm going to move right here.

And I'm going to do a sixth level.

Lightning bolt to both of those?

Yep, transmutated to thunder damage.

Alrighty.

Clap your hands together.

That is going to be a failure on the one that's nearest to you.

Both got natural fours.

That's going to save us last lesson of resistance.

They're both failures.

So they do double damage.

12, 18, 28.

Yep.

30.

42 points.

It's Thunder, so it's Thunder times 2, so

84 points of damage.

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.

Okay.

You see Chet's face turn from a wolf back into the old man.

This is all you, Imogen.

You have no idea how much it hurts to do this.

Take him down.

Thank you, Chet.

A heavy clap of thunder

echoes throughout the chamber.

There's explosions of glass and stone.

And then as the dust kind of settles, both of these arms

thundered.

And so is she.

Okay.

I just kind of held on to that one.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

Where's my water and sword?

The blast causes it to wince heavily as it impacts from the blow.

And I blink out.

Yep.

And you blink out.

Yeah.

Alrighty.

Let's fucking go now.

And where you were, we're gonna go ahead

and place this so we know where you were standing before.

Alrighty.

Thank you, Joe.

That finishes your turn, Imogen.

Ashton, you're up with Lodna on deck.

Well, fuck.

Can I make 40 feet?

Can I make it to the head?

40 feet.

John.

You cannot.

Shit.

Fuck.

Okay, so what I will do then is I will move

40 feet in this direction, and if I can be within 10 feet away

from Dorian.

Okay.

So you will be...

No lines.

There is your 15 feet from Dorian.

Okay, there's no way I can be a little further back from that 15 feet, like on the other side.

I mean, you could be...

Here.

Okay, is that still 15 feet?

I still 40 feet, yeah.

So 15 feet from him, unfortunately, you're just out of range.

Move back because this is a triple line, and I'd rather have a double line.

Okay, so back here.

Yeah.

Okay.

Anything to break the line up a little?

Is that it?

Can't do anything else?

Oh, wait a minute.

You can dash as an action if you want to.

Or dodge action, your call.

I'm going to dash so that I'm on the right side 10 feet from Dorian just to give you.

Yeah, but like a little backed up.

I don't know.

I know that's it.

This way?

Or this way?

Towards me.

Yeah, yeah.

Right there.

As long as it's 10 feet.

10 feet is there.

Yeah, so he can get my bonus from Dorian.

Okay, so he would be there.

Yep.

Okay, got it.

Alright.

That finishes your go, Ashton.

Laden, you're up with the Ormon deck.

Do you want to be further away from the head or closer to the head?

Um,

okay.

Does it matter?

No,

I'm okay.

I guess

it's a mine.

It's got a giant.

I am going to go ahead

and recast mirror image on myself

Okay.

Just in case

because I don't trust that this is going to be over.

Okay.

It is.

And then I'm going to

quicken spell eldritch blast.

Okay, what's the range on that?

250 feet.

Yes.

Sorry.

240 feet.

You're fine.

You're fine.

I am

incredibly low on sorcery points.

um

probably have to move to see it to get from behind the rock okay i'll shift a little bit so you can move over to this side here yeah that's good what an amazing spot

spell snap yeah yeah yeah that's i have that feet oh really yeah okay

um

i'm also gonna spend another sorcery point to twin spell this

so i'm gonna twin spell and just

lay in you can't well twin spell you have to have multiple targets yeah you can't hit the same card.

That's right.

Fuck.

That was my plan when there were more.

My plans keep changing because his hands move.

I mean, wondering, hands.

No, because

I can't twin spell on the same target.

I knew tonight was going to go this way.

I do have four of these, though.

I do have four of these.

You do at level 17, you do.

Yeah.

So, uh, 13.

It's It's 22 to hit the head, right?

So nine hundred thousand.

One's a natural 20.

Nice.

Another 17, 13, so three hits with one being a natural 20.

You got it.

So let's go to double damage.

Okay, so for the first one,

yeah, yeah.

13.

Yeah.

12.

All right.

Second one?

12.

All righty.

Double damage on this one.

Come on, big high, big, go, go high.

That's a 10.

So that's 25 damage.

Nice.

Launching this.

I'll just blast the arc through the air.

Kind of anime swarm missiling.

Three of them impacting

on the sides of Pradothus's massive kaiju head.

Blasts of crystal shooting out the side.

What is that?

Plus six?

Plus six?

Okay, good.

Oh, on the one that I missed?

Actually, yeah, I'll do it.

Can I do it?

Add my inspiration to the one that I missed?

Yeah, if you want to see it.

Because it was an eight.

No, uh.

Yeah, that's 23.

23 hits.

Okay.

There it is.

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

And then, um...

Where's the one?

Where'd my down here come?

No, not as good.

But, still pretty good.

Nine damage.

Nine damage.

Great.

That was a good rollover.

50 damage on a cantrip.

Okay.

Not too bad.

Not bad.

All right.

You're going to hide again, I assume.

She's got multiples up now.

Um, or not.

If I behind a rock, it's better then.

Yeah, I guess kind of just get a half cover because

you can go ahead and move back to where you were.

Just a little bit, but I still want to be able to see.

I still want to be able to have

in case I'm like you're like in between right there.

You can still kind of glance out over the side this way to see.

That's where the half cover comes from.

Just like where it is.

Okay, then.

All right, cool.

Okay, she's your go.

All right, finish, Linda.

Orm, you're up.

Uh,

Orm is gonna streak towards Fern and stick seedling into the hilt on his back, and I'm gonna pull out this and pour it down her gullet.

Okay, what's your movement?

It's 30 feet.

30 feet.

Let's go.

Look at you.

30 feet will get you just there.

Ooh.

Melanie.

Can you digest things in your marsupial pouch?

Seven, nine.

Just like animori.

Just like anime.

What if you revealed that like like last episode you can talk to you a whole habit

uh 44 points

44 points of healing that was the big boy and then i will use my last superiority die to use bait and switch and uh glide pull her back and stand in front of her shield up

You get an additional six to your AC for the rest till my turn comes around again.

And I stand there.

Top of shield, is it?

That's on top of

top of shield.

shield, so how many?

Until your next turn?

You're

17 or you're 16?

Is there anything else?

22.

22.

So 28.

22, so 28.

28 until your turn.

That's if you're near me.

If you move away, then

you'll lose.

Until his next turn?

Till we come around to me.

If you're with me, you get up to the end.

But your AC is that booster.

You lose your shield at the top of your turn, but if you lose it,

so then it'll go down.

Got it.

Yeah, which is great.

All right, hand me your big boy.

Let me put the dice back.

Alright, then finish your turnaround?

Yes.

Alright, with that, it is Perdathos' turn.

Perdathos, yes.

Here we actually

round.

Okay, does

not get its Shriek of Oblivion back.

Unfortunately,

let's see if it gets

up, that's a fine.

So get two limbs up.

He just keeps generating lambs.

That's his technique.

He gets more hands.

He gets

as many hands just making it.

How do we stop them?

Is there something?

Keep kill the head.

Keep killing the head.

Break all the crystals or something?

Isn't there like a

special horn?

Special is killing the head.

Yeah.

You hear a whole horn in the distance.

That's so smart.

I'll stack and kill you both.

I mean,

to be fair, we can't run.

There's nowhere to run.

There's nowhere else.

Oh my god.

More hands.

I would move over.

When I blink back, I would move to the

open spot.

Yeah.

No worries.

Alright, so both of those apparate.

It is going to.

Use.

Yeah, I rolled a.

On one to three, it gets one, and a four to six, it gets two.

It's going to use Screech of the Ravaged Mind.

So everyone within 30 feet has to make a Constitution saving throw.

That is

everyone except for Chetney and Imogen and Lodna.

I'll roll it with you instead of

solidarity.

Oh,

you got a D4 added.

Oh, yes, baby.

So good.

Okay, good.

Did you have a bee?

Alright,

Dorian.

Not 20 again.

Not 20.

So half a 35 is...

That's going to be

16.

17 points of psychic damage.

Okay.

14.

14, you take 35 points of psychic damage.

Fern?

16.

16, you take 35 points of psychic damage.

Okay, hold on.

I got a new Indomitable slot leveling up temporarily, so I got a 22.

22 just succeeds.

So you take 17 points of psychic damage.

Ashton?

Not 20.

Not 20, you take 16 points of psychic damage.

Oh, then I rolled 20?

She actually rolled a 20.

You're closer to Rolled 20?

Yes, that's exactly what I'm doing.

20 still feels slow.

20 still feels.

20 still feels.

Okay.

Alright.

So that's the Screechly Ravish Mind.

Anyone concentrating on spells?

Oh, yes.

At the moment?

Hex, but you said, I don't know.

Oh, yeah, so go ahead and roll with disadvantage Constitution second throws.

I am.

For me, that is a 19.

With disadvantage?

Yeah.

Okay, you maintain hex.

Okay.

All right.

I also am concentrating on something.

With disadvantage?

Correct.

What does concentration say?

Yeah.

14.

14.

You took full 35.

Half that would be 17, so 17 was the DC.

So you drop your

snow.

I'm sorry.

Okay.

All right.

So

that's going to have both of these hands are going to strike out.

One of them is going to strike at...

Dorian

and the other is going to go ahead and strike at

let's see, he's probably

Aurum Braeus.

Which looks the roughest?

I don't know, but I'm slamming my sword into my shield to get its attention.

I'll say it goes after you then.

Yeah.

I'm pointing at Aurum.

So attack with Orum.

That's going to be a 30 to hit.

Yes, sir.

Alright.

So the ruinous claw.

Ooh, okay.

Take 32 points of slashing damage.

And you, Dorian, it's Nasha 19.

It's a crit for the slashing damage.

Whoa.

Did you do a disadvantage against Dorian?

Oh, that's right.

You are so good.

You can remember that.

That is not a crit.

It's still a 24 to hit, though.

Okay.

But thank

everything good as a crit because it rolled pretty good on damage.

Alright.

Right up in the ground.

Right up in the mix.

29 points of slashing damage.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

Okay.

Okay.

And then,

yeah, it's Kate's Miracle Devourer has flared up.

Alright, finishing its go.

Bern, you're up with Breyus on deck.

Alright.

Am I within the 30 feet of the head?

Because I kind of wanted to do kind of what we were talking about.

We're flavoring, like I wanted to try using Flame Blade.

If you want...

Yeah, I mean, you can spin half your movement to get up.

Half my movement to get up.

Okay, so would that

probably still make it

close to you?

You'd be about 15-ish feet away from it.

Okay.

Okay, I could make it.

Alright, so I kind of, for flavor,

I kind of want to cast Flame Blade.

At what level?

6 and 6th level.

Say with confidence.

Okay.

So that's going to put it at

5d6,

right?

Okay.

Let's go rude this morning.

5d6

is with the damage it would deal.

With the damage that it would deal.

Plus.

Or someone within five feet of it, would I also get sneak attack?

Yeah.

Let me check.

I think.

Who's within five feet?

Oh, on a spell?

But if it's a major.

You create a blade that's similar size and shape to a scimitar.

It's merely a spell attack.

I think Rob would be weird about it, but it makes sense to me.

I'm gonna allow it.

You can sneak attack on this if you can make it work out.

Because you're using your action to attack with it once, so if you manage to hit, I think a little sneak attack damage makes sense.

Especially for a druid rogue with a pretty heavy investment in rogue, like, yeah, that makes sense.

Okay, okay, okay.

So,

so.

So, you're gonna cast Flame Blade

and 15 feet will get you

right up into melee window.

If you want to describe to me how you operate your Flame Blade, please.

Alright, so so

as I'm just trying to get up, if you step away, you will lose protection, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't step away.

I just am letting you know.

If you stand right in front of me, you'll keep it.

But in order to get the sneak attack, she has to be in the middle.

In order to attack it, you have to get a melee.

Yeah, yeah, do what you're gonna do.

Okay, I gotta do what I gotta do.

All right, I'm gonna take a hit.

Come on, just work.

That's cocked.

We begin.

I know.

We're for 20.

Yeah!

Oh my god!

Holy shit, can read that dice!

I didn't roll the other one!

I didn't roll the other one!

Okay, okay, fuck, okay.

Don't make me better!

No loud noise!

Don't scare her!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay, I'm licensing it because your friends are currently engaged in melee with your target.

You will get sneak attack on this.

What's your sneak attack at under the current level?

Features and traits.

I think it's three, two, six.

Features and traits.

Features and traits.

Where are you?

Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

It's okay, it's okay.

Uh, here it is.

Uh, oh, you can deal an extra 4d6.

Whoa, whoa.

Okay, okay, so it'll be an additional four on top of.

Okay, okay.

So it's 9d6?

That would be 9d6 plus whatever additional damage you deal, because it is flame damage, so you do an additional.

So.

Double all the dice.

And then I get a d8 because I'm on fire and then a D8 because of enhanced bond.

Do you double all those or just the

rolled dice?

Yeah, yeah.

All of it, even the eights?

Yeah,

that's not the modem.

That is epic as fuck.

All right, let's go.

It's right there.

Okay, okay.

Is it supposed to be in there?

Yeah.

Came out of curve.

I'm using it.

I'm using it.

All right.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.

All right, all right, all

37 doubled.

37 doubled.

It's going to be

74 points of fire damage.

Okay, okay, okay.

That's great.

Okay, okay.

So, uh, uh,

as you, like, walk up to it, your your blade of rippling fire kind of tearing out of your hand, summoned there,

you kind of focus the rudest-born tether between the two of you, and as you do, you can almost sense where it's weakest, where, like, it's its kind of gathered collar around its chest would stand.

Um,

you know, much of the

crystalline that has kind of defended itself there has been carved away previously by your friends.

Uh,

but you go ahead and slice into it hard and shh carve upward, doing a heavy impact of fiery damage that burns up and like singes the sides of the crystal.

You are deft at this blade, and it seems like your druidic and your rogue sides have definitely coalesced into a terrifying entity.

It's looking pretty rough.

Uh-huh.

Who's head?

It's looking rough.

Yeah.

Okay, okay, okay.

That's your bonus action, your action, your movement.

Because you're not using bonus action, Mr.

Can Attack, correct?

Uh uh

Mr.

can attack.

No, because you used your bonus action.

Your bonus action making him attack, right?

Or is it does he attack on his own?

He attacks on his.

Is he a separate initiative?

I think he's a separate initiative.

Right, right after you.

But we've been keeping him on my initial action.

Okay, then go for it.

Go and roll for him.

Roll for him.

Those bonus action uses like his teleport stuff.

That's what it was.

Yeah.

That doesn't hit.

Okay.

Yeah.

But that finishes your go.

Oh, okay.

It's good.

This is good.

That's door.

Brace yours.

Get it.

Go ahead.

Get it.

He's not doing anything?

Okay.

I'm going to, even if it costs me a hit, I will stride up to the Perdatho's head and swing away.

Alright.

I'm going to.

No, you'll still be within.

You will be leaving combat range of this hand.

If you want to take a strike, I'll take a strike.

Alright, he goes ahead and swipes at you from behind.

22.

That's my armor class.

So it does hit you.

The ruinous claw rips the back of your armor for

26 points of slashing damage.

Okay, ow.

I will

bonus action

renew that staggering smite.

I'm using a fifth level slot for that.

And

take one swing.

Come on, Mark Man.

17 plus 13, 30 hits.

30 hits.

I'm using a third level divine smite.

Okay.

That's is that 48 or 38?

That'd be 48.

48.

Okay, so

46 and 68.

Correct.

Okay.

Come on, come on.

Here comes

terrible.

Oh, wait, that's an eight.

Yeah, that's 20.

Yeah.

Then another two,

28,

plus another 16 is 44, plus 7 is 51.

Okay.

And then the second strike.

I don't really have anything else.

I have one spell left that I could do divine smite on.

I'll just do...

No, this.

He's looking rough.

Balls to the wall.

Balls to the wall.

Yeah.

Yeah, empty the tank.

I will use my last fifth level spell for Divine Smite if I hit.

Can I choose after I hit?

Yeah.

You can choose after.

Okay.

Oh, it's terrible.

Oh, don't look at me.

That's a good TV.

That's going to miss, unfortunately.

One heavy impact that splatters black and red across the front.

The other one, it slips out of your grasp and like flips in the air and lands on the ground next to you.

It was so cool.

Don't look at it.

My God, I'm better than two.

There we are.

Alrighty.

That finishes your go.

Everybody's around him.

Alright, end of your turn.

Everyone is around him.

End of your turn is going to go ahead and spend legendary actions

to use Ma of the Red End.

What's that?

A bunch of you guys are in melee.

Autra.

Oh no.

It's going to go ahead.

It's come after you, Ashton.

Melee means.

Yeah, okay, yeah, go ahead.

Yeah, melee means.

Melee means.

Yeah.

It's going to go ahead and and come at you.

The mouth spins around.

And then comes down at you for...

That's a natural 20.

Oh!

Silvery barbs.

Wait, wait, is he close to me?

He is.

Yeah, he's right next to me.

I am.

He's 20 feet from you.

Silvery Barbs.

You have Silvery Barbs?

Wait, I got Silvery Barbs.

Oh, with your drogue?

Can I use it?

Yes, you can.

You're going to injure me.

That's because it's a reaction.

It's a a reaction, but you did get back on your turn.

Did I get a bad?

I get a guy back.

So it's not a crit.

It's still a 24.

But it's not a crit.

Well, silvery barber dead.

We just mean bitches.

Bitches.

Three PCs for silvery barbs is great.

Next campaign, all your enemies are.

No, no, no.

You can also give silver.

No, that's awesome.

That's awesome.

All right, cool.

So it's a regular hit, I believe, right?

24, I think it was.

Yeah, just that's a hit.

You can transfer that crit to somebody else, right?

You can give the advantage.

You can give advantage.

Marisha,

I'm just like,

14 mages.

They're just like, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope.

Normal.

Normal.

Normal.

Normal.

Give advantage.

I've got it to normalize.

Give it to Chetney.

So that would use a second level because my first.

Oh, yeah, definitely.

Really?

That's a lot of dice.

8d8.

Oh my god.

8d8

of the world battle, y'all.

That's gonna be

42 points of

piercing damage.

Halved.

Halved.

Two.

To 21.

Okay, 21.

And I need you to make a strength saving pair for me.

Oh, 70.

If I was okay.

26.

26 success.

It chomps down on you and you watch Ashton vanish and then its jaws.

And then suddenly the jaws

push apart and you see Ashton with the hammer like pushing the jaws

before eventually leaping out and they slam behind you and you catch your feet once more.

Yes!

Now you use it.

Okay, you have advantage.

Good to know.

Thank you.

Alrighty.

Dorian, you're up with Chetney on deck.

Oh my god.

So can I ask a question?

Sure.

Alright.

So if he engaged with him and like

ate Ashton, like where it but he got spat out?

Where would he be spat out?

In the same spot?

Or would he spit him forward where his where his head would have turned towards him technically?

Okay.

So I would say yeah.

So like he essentially avoided being swallowed.

Okay.

So he's still in the same spot.

Correct.

And you're still up?

I'm...

Kinda.

Yeah.

Barely.

Like, hilariously barely.

bleeding out the ears eyes nose oh yeah no it's

are you holding its jaw open I've got

I'm still on the ground but like

it's cut and but like I look like the thing like it's just all cracks there's blast starting to come out of every fucking point

both like single ditches

I look like ground

heal everybody in one cup of it too far

are you just trying to get it's okay

yeah uh when

gone off the imagin has vanished off the map Okay, cool.

Cool.

Then I'll stay where I'm at and

he's looking rough.

Yeah.

Not like extremely rough.

But looking rough.

More rough than

not as rough as I am.

He's not a rough pick.

Not that thing.

He's looking rough for something stronger than gods.

Okay, so I'll stay where I'm at for my bonus action.

I'll just turn to Ash and say, that was great.

That was so cool.

And I'll do healing word again.

Oh, okay.

Yeah, at third level this time.

Okay.

No, no.

I would rather

say, just do that.

17 and I get one more because it's six.

17 points.

Oh, no, no, I'm sorry.

17 plus 3.

So 20.

20.

Heal 20 hit points.

Okay.

That's for everybody?

That's for

Ashton.

No, no, no, that's fine.

Don't worry.

Don't worry.

Don't worry.

No, everybody's positioned.

No, we're all weird.

Cool.

And then for my turn, I'll just start hacking away again.

You're within 10 feet of me, you get a D4 to add to your attack.

You could add D4 to each attack.

Okay.

You have advantage on these.

Don't forget.

What the fuck?

What the fuck?

Didn't even have to roll initial advantage on that.

Not 20 on that one.

All right, let's go.

Not great.

So

eights doubled, 16.

You could add your blade flourish to that as well.

I'm going to do it on my second attack, I think.

Not this one.

Oh, wait, no, wait.

Because it doubles my dream.

Oh, because it was double two, then I will do my blade flourish.

I'll do the defensive flourish again.

So another six.

Okay.

So yeah, 22 on that one.

Great.

And then I'll do my second attack.

Let's go.

You have advantage on these two, don't forget.

Okay, that's right.

And a d4.

Okay, need it.

16, 13, 29.

29 hits.

Going rule damage for that second attack.

Let's do it.

Dog shit.

One.

Eights.

Eight points.

Yeah, still has 30 points of damage.

30 total.

Barred combat damage.

And some healing to your friend over here, Ashton.

Holding on a little better.

You want to stay put or you want to move?

No, baby, I'm in the mix.

I'm staying put.

Let's go.

All right, that finishes your go.

Yep.

Alrighty, Chetney, you're up.

I'm running.

I'm using my boots of speed with my 80 feet of distance, and I'm booking it towards Ashton.

And I'm going to hand off with my bonus action.

Yeah.

This health potion.

Can I do that on a bonus action?

Can I hand it off?

I'll allow it.

Yeah.

You can run past to do that.

Oh shit.

And I will keep you.

I will keep moving and I'm going to stay within 10 feet of him, but I'm going to come on the opposite side and flank with Breyus.

Is that different?

Flank Braus, you will leave his 10-foot radius.

I'll leave the 10-foot radius as well.

Okay.

Yeah.

Sam, if you'd be so kind as to read, or Robbie, if you can move

Chetney and I'm on that axis there.

Okay.

Thank you.

I'm going to

take two swipes with turmoil.

God damn it.

Where are you?

It's a 29 to hit on the first.

That hits.

And a 18, 28 to hit on the second.

Alright, you know what?

Actually, it's going to go ahead and reaction to Convinced Glass to add 20 more temporary hit points.

I keep forgetting the psychic damage up to me.

So

you take 9 points of psychic damage.

9 points.

Plus 6 is 18.

Oh, I don't get the D4.

It's 19 points of damage with a D8 of thunder.

5, so 10 points of Thunder Damage.

Second one is...

Oh, that's great.

9.

15 plus 6 is...

I know.

21 points of damage.

All right.

With

5.

Another 10 points of Thunder Damage.

31, great.

That's 60 points of damage in one round.

Hell yeah.

That's it.

And I stay there.

Alright, that finishes your go.

The 20 kicks in.

Let's go ahead and roll.

God, more hands.

Alrighty, that's going to be three.

So this one, it's going to go ahead and

go ahead and move this hand

and over.

Oh, God.

Oh, you just

killed me.

This is an old man.

This is a big map, Matt.

Would you like some help?

Those arms are magnetic.

Is there metal hiding underneath all the maps?

There are magnets hiding within there to keep them.

It was the secret of the nothing.

There's magnets everywhere.

You know this now.

Alrighty.

Imogen.

You pop into place.

Where?

Within 10 feet of my last position.

Alrighty.

You wanna go this way, this way?

Where do you wanna?

I will move.

Come on, witch.

Come on.

What's moving?

Right here.

Alright, so I'll move this bad witch.

Are you a good witch?

What a bad bitch.

Okay,

how far 30 feet?

Can that get to the head?

My little blade?

Is that 30 feet away from the head?

Let's find out.

30 feet, it cannot.

Okay.

It can get almost that way.

Well,

I don't know if I want to move that for my bonus action.

If I can't.

Let's hold that for now.

Okay, you want to hold that?

Fifth level transmuted lightning bolt.

Come on, baby.

Just going down my things.

So it is a five-foot

arc.

Oh, shit.

Can you aim up, though?

Could I?

If you want to aim up, I'd say there's a chance you miss the head.

So I'll say

either you can choose to hit Dorian or Fern with it and definitely hit the head and the arm, or you can roll to see if you possibly miss the head but still hit the arm.

Do it.

No.

Or see if you can find a better angle by moving.

I'm going to get a a better angle.

Because the head is important.

Yeah, the head is more important.

So I'm going to shimmy

to here.

Okay.

No, I'm going to shimmy.

I forgot that I regenerate a hit point every round because of ceiling.

I'm going to give myself to a hit point.

Go for it.

So I'm going to go.

I'm going to say I blinked to here.

Okay.

Because that's 10 feet from where I had been.

Sure.

I'll ask that.

And then I'll move 30 feet, which can I assume is here.

You may, yeah.

You will take out you'll take an opportunity attack if you move that far.

But I'm 30 feet.

You're moving 30 feet.

Okay, yeah, so you're just barely within 30.

But I just want to be somewhere where I can hit the head without hitting anything.

I'll allow that.

All right.

Okay.

Dexterity, save, and throw.

That's going to be a 24.

That succeeds.

Okay.

I assume this is lightning bolt, as you said, right?

Transmuted, yeah.

Transmuted, yeah.

Okay, cool.

Yeah, so it's a success, so it does full damage.

Okay, so one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

nine, ten, because that's fifth level.

Transmute the out of thunder is nasty in this fight.

10,

16.

um, 24,

28,

30 points,

doubled.

No, no, no, it's not doubled because you saved, so it's just 30.

So it's 30 points of thunder damage,

strikes through, blast it, crystals go exploding.

You see, the eyes now are glowing more furious as it's like breaking off, and more chunks of damage are there.

There's like panic and fury in its face.

It's part of its like head crest, you're like cracking and falling off.

Way to go, Dark Phoenix.

Okay, okay, okay.

Um to finish your turn, no,

Okay.

I'm just checking in.

Um

the ethereal plane, man, it makes her crazy.

I am going to like this is gonna work.

That's dumb.

Fairy fire.

Okay, okay, you know what I'm gonna do?

What you gonna do?

All right, I'm gonna use a sorcery point.

Yeah,

another one, and I'm gonna shock and grasp it at a distance.

Oh.

I'm gonna use another sorcery point to transmute that into thunder damage damage as well.

Let's go.

So, I'm gonna try to hit the shocking gun.

Go and attack, girl.

Come on.

Let's go.

Come on.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

20.

20 is gonna miss.

I'm gonna go.

Fucking hell.

That was a good try.

That was a good try.

All right, all right, all right, all right.

Uh, and then I'm gonna reinstate my blink.

Yes, I blink.

I rolled a twelve.

Oh, fucking blink, man.

All right, go ahead and put put this in place of your piece there.

That was nuts, shit.

That was nuts.

Alright, finish his emissions, go.

Sorry, that wasn't as good as...

It's okay.

Break it.

Uh, yeah.

Um...

Didn't die.

Fuck it all.

There I am.

Um, I'm going to.

Walk it up to the tempo.

Yeah, I'm just gonna take...

I'm gonna find the biggest crack I can and I'm just gonna just start wailing with the hammer again.

Go for it.

I have advantage over this first bit anyway.

Right.

So you're not doing reckless?

Um

probably a bad idea to do reckless.

Sure, go for it.

So

said probably a bad idea so you're doing it?

No, I said I get advantage on my first hold.

Yeah, plus a silver bar.

Which doesn't matter because that's a nat 20 anyway.

Oh my god.

Silvery bars.

Let's go.

One, two,

where are the rest of my D6s?

I actually, oh, here we go.

God, come on.

One, two, three, four.

I get extra D.

I've gone up the number of D6.

So I, okay, so two.

I actually.

I remember a one d6 really quick.

Yes, you may.

Thank you.

I'm also going to burn a chaos burst into this.

Okay, so roll the first two T6 and double that.

It's a bad idea, so I'm going to do it.

Ashton Graymore story.

And okay, so 2d6, this is the first.

Is the.

People told me not.

That's

nine points.

So 18.

And add that.

And now

the

rage damage.

10.

14.

14, so that'd be 32.

32.

And now I'm going to do...

Where's my D8?

Let's do some...

Come on, big money.

I'll take cold, whatever.

Cold damage.

Okay.

Where's my D10?

And then

7 points of cold damage.

Okay, so 39 points of damage in that strike.

And then add the standard number for that, which is 15 points on top of that.

Okay, so 54 points of damage.

Damn.

Hey, heavy crit.

Crack!

All blasts of energy, multicolor kind of elemental impact, just scatter across its broken crystal.

A massive chunk of its neck rough and its open exterior armor is kind of shattered and exposed.

And underneath, you can see the now dark, bleeding ruination that is around the sides of its head from where you've all been just blasting away at it.

So I forgot, but now I remember.

I hit a crit, which means everyone gets advantaged until the end of my next turn.

That's right.

So, here we go with advantage.

What is that ability?

That's the defeat, right?

That's, yeah, it's

all attack rolls against that creature are made with advantage until the start of your next turn.

That's so good.

It's so dirty.

No, not a crit.

But it hits 17, 27, 31 to hit.

31 to hit, alright.

Yeah, we're getting to the point.

And I'll just burn another

chaos person in this because

now I have one left.

Okay.

So we're going to do...

That was...

That's sick.

Nope.

No, it's upside down.

Nine points of acid damage.

Alrighty.

And

23 points of bludgeoning damage.

Alright, great.

Cool.

Alrighty.

Two heavy swings into it.

Tired and broken.

Still.

Do I bother?

Standing resolute.

Bother what?

Do you think this is another round or no?

Do you think I'm going to get to one more round?

I mean, who knows?

We don't know anything.

I don't want to go these things.

Fuck it then.

I'm using my bonus action to burn my shard of Kimor.

I am turning entirely into crystal.

Just my body just starts to go and I am a diamond.

For how long?

For one round.

Okay.

I don't know what that's going to be.

That's great.

That'll make you in, like, are you invulnerable for a round?

I'm entirely invulnerable to the end of my next round.

Are you now technically a construct?

I don't know.

I do not think so.

I'm also going to move

over here to cover as many people with my one D4 as humanly possible.

Okay, so that would be

there.

They would get Braus, Fern, and Dorian.

Perfect.

Everyone gets a D4.

Alright, that finishes your go, Ashton.

Attacks the save sound.

And everyone's got advantage.

Oh my god.

A construction.

Okay, remember my hands are so greasy.

At the end of your turn.

Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit.

He caught it.

We caught it.

No, I didn't.

Oh, you did it?

Oh, here it is.

I thought you were really dexterous, but you aren't.

He's about to hurt us.

It really looked to me like you caught it.

He's about to fuck us up.

Yeah, no, he's gonna.

Okay, there.

He can't do anything.

He's stumped.

Yeah, everybody is around him.

Apologies for that.

He's like, oh, I don't know.

I can only hit them if they're far away.

It's gonna attack Dorian because he's the only one that's in range.

Alright, that's gonna be

25 to hit.

Yeah.

26, sorry.

This is the long hand that's

slamming over in that direction.

That's going to be

31 points of slashing damage

against you as it just kind of claws you and slams you into the ground.

You pull away as it gashes across your back.

You feel your shoulders warm from the blood that's being split up.

You feel a disadvantage.

That's true.

Oh, it's even higher.

Yeah, we're good.

But that's a good reminder, though.

All right.

So, finishing that go, Lauden, you're up with a warm on deck.

So we all have have advantage.

I have to wait.

No,

I'm at a funny point where my eldritch blast theoretically can do more damage than my eighth-level spells

because of this.

Just a little bit.

Let's go.

Good humble breath.

Oh, you know what?

Actually,

at the end of.

Gave him too much time to think, Barisha.

Yeah, I know.

Well, I did it once once.

You can't let him think.

You're dragging the

At the end of Ashton's turn,

I do have one more action to do.

It's going to telekinetic vacuum you, Vladna, go make a strength-saving throat.

What?

Oh, shit.

Wait, why?

Because I realized I had a legendary action left here that could easily end up in a turn.

Blink-saving.

What if I pop out a titty?

I've already seen it.

Strength saving throw.

Okay.

I'm going to use my bow die.

My bow die didn't fail me last time.

Not complaining, but.

What if I do this twice?

What if I do this twice?

No, just 20.

Pretty good.

It was actually really close.

But

then you realize my strength is minus two, saving throws, so 13.

That's a failure, unfortunately.

Oh, no.

You get plucked up

and then then pulled over

into melee with

you.

Kill him.

Now you can take your turn.

That's fine.

That's fine.

I am going to

is now a good time to talk.

I have my painting as like a breastplate right now.

Brook breastplate with a long name.

Yeah.

I'm going to teleport.

I'm going to Shadow Walker as my bonus action.

Teleport.

There isn't a shadow for you to step into that close to its glowing mass.

You need a shadow to step into.

Is his mouth open?

His mouth is currently closed.

And the inside of his throat is glowing as well.

I've been describing it a few times that way.

That was a good call.

That was a good call.

But the limitations of this is you have to find a shadow to step into, and he pulled you right out into the open.

Legit.

Intense.

So nothing 30 feet, no.

Not larger than

dim light?

Like, what's it say for this ability specifically?

It says dim light.

Let me, this is new.

This is a new thing.

I apologize.

Oh, no.

Because

when I'm in dim light or darkness, as a bonus action, I can magically teleport to.

Right, yes.

You'd have to get behind something with some sort of a

shatter to cast, because, like, around this close to its radius,

it's going to be a glowing kind of natural light.

Okay, then.

New plan.

It's like his head is like the source of the light in this chamber aside from the crystals around there.

My head.

New plan.

Nothing like pulling a player towards a starter.

What's his, what's how, what do I have to, I don't want to fuck anybody.

And good for her.

Good one, Brad.

What's his reach?

It's right up on him.

I don't want to leave his melee range.

For the head?

Yeah.

Five feet.

Oh, that's it.

Five feet.

It's a bite.

So it's not massive.

Just imagine if he has like an itch.

So annoying.

You can reach him without hand.

That's true.

I'm going to quicken spell.

Okay.

Directly behind me, five feet, just so I can five feet darkness.

Okay.

Oh.

Okay.

Damn it.

Well done.

Wait, though.

Wait.

Wait.

Because it's a bonus action when you quicken it.

And then is it a bonus action to step into something?

It is a bonus action to teleport.

You're right.

You're right.

You still do it, but it'll be your action and bonus action.

What do you want to do?

That's a really smart move.

That is a really smooth move defensively to get out of there.

But also, that's your turn.

So it's up to you.

Okay.

No, I'm not gonna do that.

No.

No.

New plan.

No.

New plan.

But I won't do that.

He still has like a legendary save, too, doesn't he?

I'm pretty sure he does.

I'm gonna just

shift

off these tracks, but I kid somebody.

I'm going to cast.

Because if I step back five feet, then I still get my range.

You do, but he will get an opportunity there.

But you said he's a five-foot five-foot, meaning you're up against him.

If you step five feet away from him to get out of his melee, you're out of his melee range.

And he hasn't used a range.

So the longer range is you actually have the little wiggle rooms.

The short ranges that are hard to pull away from.

Matt, is his head made of organic material or is it all like crystal-based?

Like his face and his head crest and stuff.

It's both.

He's totally vegan.

Yeah.

Okay.

Oh, yeah.

I'm sorry.

You just killed my boyfriend, so maybe

it's not.

So much shit.

I'm sorry.

Okay, I started out here.

I'm gonna, I'm gonna risk it.

I'm gonna risk it because I saw a mirror image.

So yeah, I'm going to move away.

Okay.

Go ahead and move yourself away.

This gives her the biscuit opportunity attack against you because you pull back.

That's going to be a 204 to hit.

That hits mirror image.

Oh,

no.

No, it doesn't.

Roll the five.

All I have to do is roll

over that.

Alright, so that's Ma the Red End.

So that's going to be 8d8.

Damn.

No, I theoretically should have

all the other made this.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait do I have advantage

does advantage count on this

on mirror image to roll to no it doesn't

30 points of piercing damage on you I need you to make a strength saving throw oh no she won't be swallowed it counts on this on the saving throw yeah it does

and you get a risky move because I should have

you get an advantage on saving throws for

from Ashton's power mount.

Ashton, it's attacks against the targets.

Oh, I thought it was attacks against the targets.

The D4?

D4?

Well, she was with the turnover.

She wasn't close to us.

She's not on four.

Did you roll to hit her with this thing?

I did.

You did.

Can I.

Jesus, does this work?

Can I use my reaction to burn my last curse, which is Blood Curse of the Eyeless?

Yeah.

Which, within 30 feet, I can use my reaction roll to 1d10 to subtract the result from the creature's attack roll.

I I can choose to use this feature after the DM rolls.

You may.

1d10.

So it's a 24.

Okay.

You gotta still have shields.

Okay.

That's a 10.

Oh!

That reduces it to a 14.

My AT is 15.

Oh!

I don't know why I haven't used it.

It's a great blood curve.

I guess if there wasn't time to use it, this is it.

Because he was about to swallow Lodna.

So, wait, does that mean that the damage also doesn't happen?

The damage also doesn't happen.

Oh, wait, it's not getting 30 pit points, but it's not.

Right as you go to run away, it opens its jaws and its neck lunges towards it.

You see it shifting, and you go ahead and like

conjure what flash of hemocraft you can within and pull back on it.

Its eyes flare red, and it kind of like balks before it can slam its jaws shut.

Right as Lodna leaves the range, the teeth

slam onto nothing as you continue to run off the side.

Nose

Thank you, Charlie.

Well done.

What you got?

All right.

Now I'm going to.

Okay.

Jesus.

What have I done?

Nothing.

Nothing.

I've just got sucked into his mouth.

30 minutes later.

Oh, Lord, have mercy.

All right.

All right.

You got Lenna?

Now your turn.

Eldridge Blast.

Now I'm going to twin spell it.

Yes, yes.

So,

this is going to be eight

eldridge blade.

With advantage.

With advantage.

Shit, queen.

So let's start with the head.

Really, what I double check here.

I'll double check.

I heard attacks.

I heard you, just making sure.

Yeah.

First one

is going to be 23.

Hold on, we're checking rolls on that real quick.

Attack rolls against the creature that I'm going to get.

23 hits.

23.

Could I amplify it?

Yeah.

Natural 20, baby.

Oh, yes.

This.

Is this against the head?

Natural 19.

Do we have any type of range there?

This is all against the head.

Oh, hold on a second.

Natural 20!

Hold on.

Hold on a second.

What?

Hold.

Come on.

Breath.

Breathe.

So, Elder's Blast technically cannot be twin spelled once it because it has to have a single target, right?

Once it has two blasts, it can't be twin spelled into multiple.

Otherwise, you're just doing eight across the way.

So, just double-check.

So, you didn't twin it and you just didn't.

You didn't twin it, but you just did those four.

So, that's fine.

And two of them are not speeds.

Two of them are natural 20s, which is crazy.

So, yeah, so all four hits.

All four hit against the main head with two of the main crits.

Let's go.

Come on, come on.

You guys are doing

turning this pretty well.

Okay, let's do the two crits together, because why not?

Are you fucking serious?

Double nines?

They're double nines.

So that's going to be 18 plus 18.

Yeah, 36.

Plus

5 and 5.

Right, so 46 damage.

So 46 damage for the two crits.

For the others...

That's a 10, so another 15.

All right, right.

This is insane.

This is making up for every shitty roll we've ever had.

And a four, so that's nine.

What was that total?

70 points of damage.

And an elder blast.

With a fucking hand shit.

That's heavy.

So just describe to me how you

barely dodge being swallowed by this empty and spin around.

How do the elder's blasts look as you lob them?

These are just getting fucking meaner.

They're getting meaner and meaner.

Like as it's almost like me, because I want to use my disintegrate so bad.

So it's like essences of his disintegrate ray as I'm just like rapid firing them.

Like

each impact, the head's kind of reeling back.

That's awesome.

And now,

where am I?

Am I in shadow now?

I'm not.

Am I?

You are not.

Um

what should I

do for my bonus action?

Or amira.

He's kind of changed

within me.

Something is

not the same.

Um, I'll move through a

I think that's it.

I'm not gonna quicken this fall.

I'm gonna hold on to my points because I'm not

in a great place with it right now.

I should have hexed this fucker.

Um, because I don't have anything.

You know what?

Sure, I'll throw a bonus action hex into it.

I should have done that first.

Can I say we did that?

We did that first?

No?

That's fine.

Alright, so you're gonna have to get the one give me for me.

Yeah, that's fair.

Alrighty.

Cool hexed.

That finished your turn?

Yeah.

With its focus on Laudna as she is fucking it up, Aurum spits blood and then starts to streak on an arc around me.

Keep my distance though, 15 feet.

And as he's running, he's slashing the wind, and I'm using Seedling's ability to attack from 15 feet back.

Okay.

That's a bad roll.

That is 22, which just misses, right?

22 just hits.

Just hits, okay.

Come on, baby.

Come on, baby.

Still hexed, so that is 22 for the first slash.

Double 18s on the 20s.

All right.

So that is 6.17 on the second slash.

Alrighty.

And on the final, as he's running, running, running, 17 plus lots.

So

final that is 7 plus

18.

And I will end, if I can,

even further around so I'm not in a line with Lodna for a kaiju laser.

You got it.

That's about as far as you can.

There?

Yeah, okay.

All right, that finishes your turn.

Donezo.

Finishing your go.

It is now for Dotha.

Furious hurting.

What?

It's massive kaiju form looking tough.

Let's see if it gets that back.

Yes.

Alright, so it gets back.

It's

pretty brutal.

Should we put oblivion?

The head.

Oh!

Oh, no.

No.

If you can move that rock out of the way for me, if you don't mind, can't do it.

Is that a teleportation move?

No, it's not.

No.

It's a browser.

Oh, no.

We're all bunched and clubbed or just got out of the way.

Oh my god.

Oh my shit.

You guys said where you were.

I was like, okay.

That's a four, that's two.

Mr.

Mine.

Don't worry.

He saw that a mile away.

Lodna's fine.

More arcs.

Come look at this, Matt, and say if it would get Lodna to

I don't

know.

I mean it depends on what the line is.

He could get Dorian and Lodna, or he can get

all five of you.

Amazing.

It can emerge from anywhere in its base in any direction, just like you guys can do.

It's a five-foot line, so it can get all five of you.

Yeah, we're all perfectly

lined up.

All right, so I need,

oh, boy.

I need Dorian.

You are

invulnerable.

Invulnerable.

To all forms of damage?

Yes.

Okay.

You don't have to worry about it.

I need Fern, Breus,

Lodna, and Dorian to make a dexterity.

Breyus, Fern, and Dorian, I think, within 10 feet.

Actually, they're all within 10 feet of me.

You roll a one, call it.

So everyone gets a D4.

Everyone gets a D4.

Except for me, right?

Except you.

Okay.

This is another magical spell effect.

We all need a D4?

Yep.

Except for Lodna.

Technically, I'd say yes.

What kind of save?

Oh, and maybe check.

This is a dex?

I'm out of the way.

Yeah, whoever's not here, actually, you don't get one either.

I'm just letting...

I'm just pointing out the damage roll in this.

No, no cat on this.

So it's 5d12 roll.

10, 11, 9, 4, and 9.

Oh, my God.

So...

How many?

This is Dex.

Ton.

Did he say it's true, make it 5d12.

Alright, so.

5, 12.

So, starting over here, Lodna.

Natural one.

Natural one.

No, no, no, no, no.

Reaction.

Half-ling, bountiful luck.

Reroll.

Really?

Yes.

Within how many?

30 feet.

Yeah, you got it.

Let's go.

I said call out your ones.

Call your ones.

I didn't hear that ones.

That's okay.

12.

All right, you take 73 points in aquatic damage.

What?

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

If it's a beam and it's a straight line and Ashton is an invulnerable diamond, does he serve as a block for the rest of us?

Yeah, that's what I do.

To be fair,

you don't want me to follow that rule.

He is a prison right now.

He just becomes a death disco.

Just bring it out of him.

Go hard and watch him.

73.

73 points near God's damage.

Are you still up?

Away.

Away.

Yeah.

Wow.

Oh, you haven't taken any damage this whole time.

We haven't taken any damage, but we're not hiding.

But now it's bad.

Now it's not good.

I rolled a 17 plus 10 plus 128.

Okay, so you take 36 points in necrotic damage.

No.

Good night, baby.

I'm down.

Okay.

Breyus.

18.

18.

You take 73 points in necrotic damage.

I'm going to meet my maker.

No.

Are you down?

You're down.

Everybody's going down.

22.

That just succeeds.

You take 36 points in necrotic damage.

Well, can I, can I, can I evade?

Well, that's true.

Well, that is a success.

So you take nothing.

You take no damage.

But I did use a reaction earlier for

a while ago.

Hold on.

I'm going to check.

I'm going to check.

I think evasion does not happen.

I think it might just happen.

I'm going to double check.

It's been a minute.

Hold on.

Just a second.

Dodge is the one that's ready.

Evasion is just.

Yeah.

Yeah, I I think evasion is.

Yeah, I just need to do it.

No, I just happen.

So you take no damage.

Oh, my God.

Those levels of growth don't feel so silly now.

They don't feel so silly now.

They do not.

Both of your healers are cooked.

Coming up to the ground.

That far hand is going to go ahead and strike at you.

Uh-huh.

And the attack.

Natural 18, that's a crit.

Oh, no.

Silvery bitch.

That's me.

Silver hair, bitch.

My hand silvery barbs it.

You don't have to do that.

Wait, what is a crit?

It's a crit.

So wait.

Against him?

Yeah.

And it would double the 73?

No, no, this is a different thing.

This is like a boss strike.

This is a hand.

It's not going to be his hand.

Where is it?

Those have been only like 20-ish.

But it was a crit.

So he's going to take like 40 damage at least.

I know, that's the thing.

I'll hold it.

It's Chet.

It's looking okay.

It just couldn't become in more.

I have my whole life.

It's been helping all of us.

Setting up franchises everywhere, right, son?

Oh, no, it just might come more in handy later.

It's hard to say.

So that's going to be

on the dice

24

double to 48 plus 6.

So that's going to be

50

points of slashing damage on you.

Half.

So

26.

26.

Go ahead and roll a constitution saving care for me, please.

Constitution.

You don't have advantage on this, do you?

Do I not in my hybrid form on con?

You're right there.

Natural 19 for a plus five, 24.

24?

Okay, yeah, so you maintain concentration.

Okay.

It's going to attack you again.

That's going to be another natural 18.

I'm not even joking.

Literally, two in a row.

He is trying to knock me to get her, I think.

Maybe.

Because if he breaks his concentration, then I lose blink.

Should I silvery barbs this one then?

Silvery barbs.

What's the range on silvery barbs?

60 feet.

How is it 60 feet as well?

Doesn't make sense.

It's so busted.

Let's see.

You are.

You're just barely in 60 feet.

Okay.

So safety.

So

we're hanging on, but this is our fingernails here.

Yeah.

Also, I'm burning.

20.

Did you get a 20?

God damn it.

Really?

You're really?

I'm going to have to get up to this shit.

What is it?

You kept me alive, probably.

There is balance here.

Wait, what was it?

You just crit it again.

Three crits in a row.

Yeah.

17, 18, 18, and 20.

Still very high, but that's

still against Chet.

Yeah.

You get advantage on whatever this is, next saving throw or attack.

Oh, really?

Is it attacker saving throw you could do?

Yeah.

A level one reaction spell needs all the bonuses.

And this is coming from the head or from the hand?

Let's find

the same.

Is this coming from the head or the hand?

It's from the hand.

Oh.

And that's going to be.

Next, attack row, ability checker, saving throw.

Great, there we go.

I don't have the brand of castigation.

It's gonna be 52 DC.

58 points of slashing damage.

Good lord, so

28.

52 halved.

58 halved?

58 halved.

So it'd be 58.

So 58.

Sorry, sorry.

58 halved would be.

29?

29.

29.

29.

29 points of damage.

Okay.

So

another Constitution Saving Throw.

You have advantage on it.

Okay.

But it's going to be a

14 DC.

Okay.

19.

Okay.

God damn.

Alright.

Alright, that's going to finish Prothos' turn.

Fern, you're up.

Okay.

Alright.

Yeah, it's amazing how quickly that just shifted.

Yeah,

okay.

Uh, well, I'm gonna move out of this line a little bit and

I'm gonna I'm gonna scorching Ray at fourth level again.

That's what I got.

I mean I can get up and do some melee, but I don't

get it.

Oh, by the way, did you roll concentration check

to maintain your flame blade?

She didn't take any damage.

I'm sorry you didn't, never mind.

You're good.

You're good.

So my turn.

So you have advantage on all of that.

Alright, I'll take some scorching rays fourth level.

Okay.

Advantage on all of them.

Advantage and a D4

on all attacks, my favorite.

Oh, really?

You're next to me.

Because you're right next to it.

Okay, okay.

So, uh, that's

five hits.

Okay.

And what level?

Fourth.

Fourth level would be five.

Okay.

So.

Oh, wow.

Oh, shit.

Alright, so two.

So 19 plus plus 12.

That hits.

Yep.

That's one hit.

Okay.

Great.

Second one hits.

Third one.

Add a D4.

So, okay, so 13.

25 that hits.

Right, three hits.

That I don't think hits.

I don't even remember that.

Well, that's nine plus.

21.

21 just needs to be done.

No, sorry, sorry.

So D4 on that already?

Yeah, yeah, that was 10.

Okay.

So three hits in the last one.

twenty-five

hits, four hits.

So, roll eight.

Uh yeah, eight d6.

Okay, eight d6, eight d6.

Oh man

all right,

that's right.

Okay,

um

26.

Did you add that one?

And I didn't roll that one.

Oh, okay.

26 and then 2

8

plus

8.

26 plus 8.

Okay, so

34 points of fire.

Well, it's all fire now.

Yeah.

That all burns across,

impacting and singing around its outside.

And is Mister going going to go as well?

Yes, Mister is going to take his flame and shit.

Does he get advantage as well?

It's all attacked.

Is it great?

He is not.

That is.

Okay.

Yeah, that hits.

Okay.

We're going to move damage on him.

Okay.

Oh my god, if Mister gets it.

You're like anyway.

Nine points of damage.

Okay.

Nine points of damage.

Alrighty.

Stephanie should turn firm?

Yeah.

I'm going to move out of the line

that we have here.

Where are you moving?

So I'm going to kind of move over to where

this way, but near Aurum.

So just as far as 35 feet forward, but kind of more a little bit this way.

This way?

Yeah, that way.

Okay.

If you move too far than 30 feet, you'll get out of combat range of this hand.

Oh.

So you might want to stay a little bit closer than that.

Okay, that's fine.

That's about as close as you can get without leaving its melee.

Alright, alright, that's my turn.

Okay.

Alright.

Stressful.

Finishing Yorgo, end of your turn.

It's going to go ahead and activate a limb with a legendary action.

It's going to attack Chetney again.

Oh!

It's going to be a 28 to hit.

Yes, indeed.

Alright, well.

You take.

Oh, it's triple eights.

30 points of slashing damage.

15.

Reduced to 15.

Okay.

Make on the constitution saving there for me?

Just a single roll, so no.

You just have to roll a 10 or higher.

Total.

It's a seven.

No!

You could replace

yourself with the mystical one right there.

Replace yourself.

A little bit closer to the head.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I have trouble resisting things older than me.

Alrighty, with that

since you turned a lot of hits.

I roll a death-saving throw.

You do.

I got a seven.

That is one failed death-saving throw for Braus.

One step closer to the hells to where you are bound.

I'm coming.

I'm coming.

I'm going home.

If there is a hell to return, I'm going home.

Alright, finishing Brace's turn.

Any of your turns can use another legendary action.

The head is going to go ahead and come after you

with a Maw of the Red End.

Listen, I'm part of you.

You're part of me.

You don't want to do this.

We're bound to each other.

Yeah.

We're shoving a hit.

Still got one in the chamber.

Silvery boobs.

Take 32 points of piercing damage.

And I need to make a strength saving throw.

It doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter, Step.

She had 31.

You watch as Imogen is swallowed by the entity just as light leaves her eyes.

Please hand me her mini.

She is unconscious and inside.

She called the entity into her.

Now the entity has brought her

into it.

That brings us to the end of the combat round.

I think now's a good time to take a break.

So we're gonna return here.

It's been three hours running.

Thank you for your patience, but that's what boss battles are about at the end of the campaign.

We'll be back here in a few minutes to pick up on the top of the next round, which is looking a little...

nerve-wracking.

See you in a little bit.

We interrupt this Critical Role Podcast Network broadcast to bring you news of dangerous treasures that lie sealed within the Critical Role shops.

Only the hardiest of adventurers should dare seek them out.

In all seriousness, though, I'm Matthew Mercer, and we've made some very cool things that we really like and hope you will too.

If you'd like to support the show, please consider visiting any of our Critical Role online shops through the shop tab at critroll.com and see if anything catches your eye.

Okay, back at the show.

And welcome back.

So, top of the combat round, Dorian, I need you to make a death save for me.

Not 20.

Not 20.

Have a roll chill night.

Dorian dice, don't fail me now.

Do it.

Oh.

Does he get an advantage?

Because of foresight.

It's 18.

18.

That's one successive death save.

Bro, it's just you can't just bounce back.

Success.

Chutney, it's your turn.

Oh, you expect me to do something?

Yep, that's it.

You just watch the image, you didn't get swallowed up within Prodathos.

I got swallowed up.

I got killed and swallowed.

And if I leave that hand, it'll provoke an attack of opportunity, right?

It will.

About 15-foot range.

F that noise.

All right.

Last one.

I'm going to use turmoil, the scythe, to fling a shatter at the head of Pradathos.

Okay.

I'm not going anywhere.

Save is

Con 16.

Natural 19.

Yeah, for

32.

Oh!

Wait, wait, that's it.

It was an attack against the head?

It's a spell against it, yeah.

Okay, so it doesn't get an advantage.

Well, it's not an attack.

It's saving.

Good looking out.

So it saves a half damage.

But because this is thunder, it's full damage.

Whatever you roll, it checks.

1938.

38 points of thunder damage to the head.

It detonates and you watch his mouth opens and there to the back you see the unconscious image and like sliding down the glowing gullet before its mouth reshuts.

Good lord, I think that is my only

my

Matthew.

Can I sing to you, baby?

I appreciate that.

Is that your turn?

What do you want to move?

Bonus action?

Anything?

You can still move 15 feet if you want.

That's distracting.

But you would give it an attack opportunity, right?

You can get up to 15 feet while still being in the combat range and not not going to activate.

I'm going to use

only bonus action mixed-distep that I have left.

And I'm going to

slide behind the head.

Okay.

So you're going to move 15 feet and then

receive your teles.

Go there, and then you're going to slide behind it that direction.

Like over here.

Do you want...

Well, you only have 40 feet of movement, so it was 15 to get to the edge there.

You can misde-step to poof.

Yeah, and then do 40 feet around that.

Yes, and go there.

Do you want to be more than five feet away from the head when you do it so you're not within melee of the head?

No, I want to be in melee with the head.

All right, there you go.

You know what?

I'll saw you run.

That's a good point.

I'll be just out of here.

Stay out of melee?

Yeah.

All right.

I know it has that 30-foot burst thing, which is just.

But at least it can't maul you.

Yep, doesn't.

That's about right.

Snapping turtle.

Yep.

Okay.

Totally.

All right, finish and chetneys go.

Thanks.

That is the top

of the 20.

Top of that 20.

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.

This hand

is going to

no healing.

What?

The head.

He's moving away from each other.

Oh no.

He's going to line up

there.

To roast us.

Actually, no, no, no.

Sorry, my head's going to move there.

Oh, no.

Oh, he's much worse.

Much worse.

But you guys, he can't.

He's just moving pieces.

You can move out of the line.

Can we?

Can Briggs and I move out of the line?

I can't.

Me either.

You had a reason for a magnet?

There was a thing that was in the way here.

Oh, it was.

Do you want to be like here?

What if you just put it behind the DM screen?

Yeah, I'll just put this here.

Not a word for fake.

Wait, so it's magnetostructure?

There are some in there.

I can use it.

What was this for?

That was when you were concentrating on Blink, but it went away.

Thanks for bringing up old paintings.

Alright, sorry.

Imagine.

Is this your failure on the battle map?

So

at the top of the turn,

because you were inside its mouth,

you begin to take digestive force damage.

Oh, cool.

So you immediately fail a death save.

Then at the the end of your turn, I need you to roll another death saving throw.

So if I roll a one, you die.

You're dead.

Just don't roll one.

Hey, hey.

Is there half a good run?

It was further than 30 feet away from me, and I.

What do you...

If I roll a one, I'm dead, dead.

Did you get a d4?

But if you roll 20, she bounces back.

There's literally only one thing you can do.

Here we go.

What is that die?

Oh, thank God.

It's 11.

Okay.

Okay, so that is one successful save.

Oh, my gosh.

What is that die?

It's your turn.

It's an awesome die.

You've taken a chance on a rogue dies.

No, I've been using it the whole game.

I love this deck.

I don't think it's worth it.

Wait, who's up?

Let's see what happens.

I think it's worth it.

He heard his name, but what are you going to do there?

You've got to do that thing.

I don't know.

Do you want me to do it?

I love not being part of the conversation.

You can tell.

It's your choice.

If you want to try this, it's a hail fucking Mary.

But I will feel so immensely guilty if I kill you.

It's been voiced.

It's been voiced.

It's been acknowledged.

Shit happened.

Okay.

That's pretty Ashton.

All right, all right.

Are you afraid of the diamond?

Two other people are now.

I'm into the end of this turn.

I am.

I'm a diamond.

Okay.

Which is a damn fucking shame because if it had just been slightly reversed

issues, this wouldn't be a problem.

We're playing Rollings.

We played Rollies.

We were technically all in 19.

That's not Rolls.

So, what are we doing, Ashton?

Absolutely sick.

I'm

panicking.

I feel like I'm going to throw up.

Going to...

I'm going to walk over.

I'm going to open that fucking mouth of that thing.

Going in?

Okay.

So you go over towards the mouth.

So you're going to try and like shove your...

What are you trying to do?

Are you trying to smack it in the head?

Are you trying to

get in?

I'm on it?

What are you trying to do?

I'm trying to...

I'm actually tempted.

Let's go up on crock.

I'm trying to use my fucking hammer to get in and just shove the damn thing open.

And if I have to, I will lock it open.

Okay.

So this would be more or less a contested shove attack.

Try and push into it, I'll say.

So go ahead and.

And then I'll have enough.

I'll have one more thing I can do if I want to.

You have two attacks.

Oh, that's okay.

So you take one.

So your first attack is going to be kind of a shove to try and open it.

Okay.

So contested strength.

Okay, can stay.

And I have advantage on that.

You do.

And I have a d4.

You rolled a 20?

No.

Oh.

I rolled a 20.

Oh, shit!

Oh,

shit!

That was a natural 18 plus 6, but that doesn't matter with a 20.

So, as it like

fucking diamond hammer as the head emerges from the ground, its jaw opens ever so slightly, and you rush up.

Using that moment, you leap towards the mouth, jam the hammer in, click it, and its mouth

kind of holds open.

And so you have that's your one attack, and you're now like in the jaw.

What do you want to do?

I want to ask one more thing.

Sure.

Privately.

I just want to whisper.

Privately.

I want to whisper something.

Okay.

A reverse whisper.

Hell yeah.

Guys,

there's merch available somewhere.

Commemorate this fight by going to shop.curritroll.com

and

scouring it for.

Yeah, just go check out the website.

Uh-huh.

Check it out.

It does.

That's the thing that plays it.

It's been over.

It's not.

Oh, it's not already.

Okay, so.

Wait, I gotta see it.

I gotta see it.

It comes for us all.

Devious.

Tell me, tell me exactly where it went.

It was part of a comp cart.

It was businessman, skateboarder, leather jacket guy,

and policeman card.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I don't need to think that's 2007.

Okay, okay.

Yeah, man.

So you could

try it.

Yeah, you know.

All right, you receive inspiration from

gorgeous.

Jesus Christ.

All right, I'm going in.

Comes for us all, Robbie.

I know.

I'm going in.

I'm pulling pulling her out.

That's some Lucifer.

Okay, so you're leaving the hammer there.

I'm using it, I'm having it click.

I'm going in, I'm using it to

fucking pull.

Okay, well, make this another contested strength check.

All right.

As she's currently kind of squeezed inside of his throat, held in place by a tongue?

You're being held in place.

It would have a tongue on the inside, but there is also like the inside of his throat is like condensed on you, so he's having to pull you out of the restraints.

Yep, you're just like, all right.

Natural 20.

Come on, on, Ashton.

Sadly, not a natural 20, but it is a 19, so that's

just strength contested, not a save.

That's

27.

27.

Natural 5.

So

are you pulling the hammer out with you?

Okay.

I feel like it would make it harder to do the stupid thing I'm about to do.

There's more?

Well, actually, no, it doesn't change it.

I don't think so.

So you have a grip on her and you pull her kind of into the jaw with you.

Can you get her out out?

You can get her out.

You can get her out, but it'll be like half the rest of your movement to try and bring her with you.

So you'll get about 15 feet away from her.

So light.

I cannot believe I'm going to do this.

I'm going to leave the hammer and run.

And with her.

Okay.

The hammer's going to be.

Are you leaving the hammer in the

immovable, frozen in place?

It is immovable.

It's locked in place.

Now, it can still

be gin.

It can still be a little bit more.

No, but it's still sitting there.

Okay.

So you

will say how much more movement do you have?

It was 10 to get there.

Do you have 40 feet of movement?

I have 40 feet of movement.

So it would be another 15 feet to here, and you would drag an unconsciously.

So with that, to survive, I can't tune it.

So we'll find out.

And Imogen is above the house.

Alright, we'll see how it goes.

You'd have to go the entire way around.

I know.

Okay.

I think I'm going to go for the healer.

All right.

Oh, yeah.

No,

I can't use a bonus action to throw a potion in her.

That's an action.

No, that's an action to try and force a potion into somebody.

Yeah.

Alright, that finishes your turn, Ashton.

Lodny, you're up with Orum on deck.

Do it.

This could go really bad.

This could go really bad.

I want to try and move as far as I can.

Movement of 30.

So like wherever I can.

30 feet will get you just beyond Fern.

So you will get

there.

Oh, I've reverted, by the way.

And not only have I reverted, I am

fucking wrecked.

There are parts of me falling off.

Okay.

Got you out.

I'm going to summon my bonus action.

to use the void puppet, my screaming spirit.

Okay.

I would like it to be like if I can have

between

these, between the hand and the in the does it have to be within melee for its effect to work?

Within five feet.

Five feet, it cannot get both.

So you have to pick one.

There's more than a.

Yeah, there's a ten-foot gap between them, so you have to choose one or the other.

In the head.

Okay.

Yeah, so we'll say the boy puppet.

It comes out of it.

What spirit do you summon?

Simply, summy, sip me.

Terrible.

Fucking

Perdathos's favorite puppet.

It's gotta be Odahan.

The shadow form.

For a brief moment, those of you that are present and conscious, your heart skips a beat as the shadow shape of Odahan crawls out of the ground like a zombie.

And you watch as it emerges, its head cracked to one side, its face melting away as she steps and drifts right up towards Perdathos.

What are you doing?

Okay.

I'm using Ashton's hammer for his ability.

I want to shoot a disintegrate ray into the hammer

and hopefully hit the head and this arm over here.

Or any of the arms.

Okay.

Okay.

So, yeah.

You channel your cinneraid, aiming for the hammer just as the head's kind of like dislodging and pulling its way back as Ashton's dragging Imogen out of the way, kind of broken and falling off in chunks.

So, what is the check for the hammer?

It is

six plus the spell's level.

Which is seven.

Or six.

So it's a 12.

DC12.

So you're rolling a D20 and you're adding your charisma modifier.

You want a 12 or higher.

If you roll less than that, it will refract back onto Ashton.

Oh my god.

That's great.

Do you have a charisma?

We didn't come here to make friends.

Take your shot.

Take a shot.

He told me to do this.

I said I wasn't going to do it.

Oh my god.

Freaking out.

Is this it?

Is this the one?

Is that the one you want?

She folded it and she said, oh my god.

What's your modifier?

Plus five.

Oh,

so you need a seven or a higher.

Okay, I can't look.

I can't look.

I can't look.

Nine.

Nine.

I'm like a little brushed ruler.

So it's done.

It was close.

Yeah, I'm sure.

It was very close.

Oh, my goodness.

Try.

Who's feeling spicy?

As you.

By two points, 14 total.

That's

two points.

As you pull sections of the forbidden arcana that sit within the soul anchor you wield in your rib cage, drawing the power from your innate abilities and siphoning them from the forever trapped Delilah Briarwood, you conjure this destructive blast of energy and fire it towards the glittering prismatic hammer of glass.

As it strikes, it splits off into a number of spaces, but ricochets directly in the direction

of the other hand on that side.

So they both have to make a saving throw.

The head has disadvantage.

This is a dexterity.

19.

19.

Okay, I'm going to roll these above the table here.

And you're not doing

your last legendary resistance.

Well, we'll see.

So, natural 19 on one.

It's the disadvantage.

The other is a two.

That's the disadvantage one?

You just

want that last legendary resistance to succeed.

Alright.

The hand over there.

That's a one.

That's a seven.

That's gonna be a sixteen.

Fail.

Fail.

Go ahead and roll damage.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

And his resistance is gone.

His resistance is gone.

Oh, yes, yes, legendary, yeah.

It's not the head.

Unless he has but legendary resistance.

No, no, they've.

That's that's the end of the

sorry, I had to look and see.

10d6, one.

Nope, nope, nope.

Four,

six.

Stop it, drive it.

I love the risky maneuver.

Ready?

Oh, yeah, I love it.

I love it.

No pain, no gain.

Dude, that would have been so harsh to have you just walk out and be like, I'm okay.

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

So I knew the world's world's it.

I knew what was coming.

It's the hand, right?

The hand is the one that failed.

It's disintegrated if you don't take damage.

If you save you don't take anything,

all or nothing.

Palms are sweaty.

I don't think it's worth it.

I'm gonna keep my points.

Sorry, I'm thinking a lot.

Um, okay.

10.

20.

What have I told you about thinking?

Oh, yeah, I have to undo

Yeah, there we go.

30.

40.

70.

33 plus 40 is 73.

73.

Which half that goes to 36 damaged head.

As the arm

part of it like breaks and turns to dust, it's still standing, but it looks very damaged.

And the head also reels back.

Parts of its jaw kind of crumble away just by the connective tissue of it.

Still holding strong.

I mean, it's all hurt, but the arm is still standing.

So that's your movement and your action.

Do you need any

healing potions?

Oh, and your bonus is because of the spirit.

Oh, shit.

Yep, that's everything.

Everything went into that.

Slide on this turn.

Orm, you're up.

Okay, I...

It seems like I'm in swatting distance of this tall hand here, right?

You likely would be, yeah.

Yeah.

So there is no good place here,

but the worst place is where everybody is.

So Auram is going to sprint his 30 feet on a diagonal this way, staying near the base of that hand.

Let's just get me there.

30 feet will get you back.

Yeah.

Then I'm dropping Hex, and with a bonus action, I will extend seedling out, and vines shoot out across the field and grab hold of Dorian.

And I yank him towards me out of the line of fire of the kaiju.

Now we're all clumped up.

And at least he's only

swattable by one thing instead of multiple things.

And then with my action,

I pull out.

I have two tiny healing potions, so I put a regular healing potion down Dorian's gullet.

Okay.

Bringing you awake.

So you roll or I roll.

It's one of these.

All right, so go ahead and unplug it.

I'll put it back in because this isn't mine, but I have it on my Fiancé.

So 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, plus plus four, fifteen.

You heal 15 hit points.

Woo!

Okay.

And

press

my head to Dorian's head and be like,

we need you.

I need you.

Can you get up?

We need you.

And that's the end of my turn.

Okay.

Yeah, I was off center a little bit.

I was off

even more.

Yeah, it like caught her and it caught me and drugged me.

I was more over here.

Over there?

Okay, good.

Yeah.

I was trying to be off its center line.

Yeah, no worries.

All right, finishing worms go.

It's now Perdathos' turn.

Actually, the end of your turn does have one legendary action left back.

It's going to attempt to

turn.

Oh, it's a good one.

It sees you seedling over there, and it's going to go ahead and try and swat you.

Okay.

Oh, I gained a hit point, so I should be fine.

That's a a natural 19.

Okay, I thought.

Rachel hit.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Fox me down.

This thing ate a couple of damage.

29 points of slashing damage to you.

Oram down.

Watch as Auram finishes putting the healing potion,

administering it to you, Dorian.

The minute he says this to you, he gets up and brings his shield up, and the first thing you see as you come back to consciousness is this hand just swat him into the ground.

Dust cloud

outward as the claw pulls back.

Bits of dust and blood dripping from it.

Worm does not move.

Now it's Brothers' turn.

Let's see if he gets the Shriek of Oblivion back.

With a two, he does not.

Let's see if he gets the Shriek of the Ravaged Mind back.

With a one, he does not.

Okay, so can...

Cool things.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Take a little victory.

Raise your hand if you're unconscious.

Fall underneath.

Very unconscious.

It's going to shift over here after that disintegrate.

Oh, this is it, probably.

And it's going to come for Lagna.

Okay.

That's an actual 17.

That's a 30 to hit.

I'm sorry, 31 to hit.

Hits.

Mirror image.

Row, right?

Yeah.

Still have that up.

Yes, I do.

Oh, my God.

All right.

Its mouth goes for the multiple Laudenas around the rest of you watch as it snaps down and swallows one of them.

And then it seems to chew nothing as Lauden keeps running along.

Good job, witch.

Good job, witch.

Now I'm going to activate two of the limbs.

One of them is going to come after.

Actually, it's going to activate that one twice.

So one's coming after Ashton.

You're still up.

Actual 20.

No.

you can die.

Alright.

I am just blocking that fucking body.

I am staring it down.

I'm blocking that fucking body.

I am rolling

terrifyingly good right now.

Alright, so that's 3D time.

Wow.

Sorry, money.

Chris, man.

He's got like special rock man abilities.

20.

46 points of slashing damage reduced to half, so 23 points of slashing damage.

And the other hand's coming after you, Fern.

Oh, I'll also say, well, I'll wait.

Finish it up.

Okay.

And that's me natural 18.

Jesus Christ.

Well, I have my

shh.

Well,

it'll be a total of 32.

Hit you.

Adjusted.

And that is a natural 18, which is a crit on these slashes.

I can't believe the.

Okay.

I don't think I'll be joining you.

If anyone's got silvery barbs, now would be the time to do it.

I mean, I have silver cubes, but that works good.

In points, are you about to go?

Is this going to be a dynamo?

She's going to die.

Can I

silvery barbs, right?

He's not going to be able to do that.

Did you go down on that?

Yeah, but I just don't want to.

Really?

I would have to burn like a fifth-level spell

barbs, so I don't want to do it if she's going to be down on it.

You can either think a dog should take half damage.

I mean, Fern is next in the initiative.

I can't point you guys.

Or you can try and silvery barbs it, and you might miss if you're lucky.

You might miss.

You might totally miss you.

It's up to you.

Silvery barbs.

Yeah, you have silvery barbs.

I have silvery bars.

I'm gonna roll this above here.

But didn't I use the reaction?

No, it came back around it.

Came back around.

It came back around.

Okay, silvery barbs.

Alright.

That's gonna be a 19 to hit you.

Yeah.

Shield?

She just used your reaction.

But it's not a crit, but you're gonna go down where this.

You have it a try.

Don't try.

Gotta try.

So AC is 19.

AC is 17.

17.

Wow.

There's no.

That was so

tight.

That was so tight.

23 points of slashing damage to you.

I'm out.

I'm out.

Burn

crumbs.

To the ground from the claw swipe.

You're not going to hurt the ground.

Damn.

All right.

That's going to.

Relentless rage.

Relentless rage pop up.

Oh, because I brought you to zero.

Yep, I'm fine.

Or you're still at one hit point.

I'm at one hit point.

I am not falling the fuck down, though.

I got hit with melee, so he takes fire damage.

Technically, yeah.

Roll it.

Takes D8.

Yeah, get this.

Yeah, get that going out.

Five points of fire damage.

It all takes.

And that would be

two to the main head.

Okay.

Alright.

So that finishes.

Opridothos is going to roll to see if he gets.

No, does not get a miracle power this turn.

Mister?

Does Mister not go because I'm out?

Mr.

Still go.

Mr.

Just furious now, especially.

Mister just goes,

grabs a big old flaming turd, pops it in his gun.

Yeah, that'll work.

Takes a Percy stance.

He did good.

He did good.

Okay, so 11 points of damage.

Great.

Sorry, 12 points of damage.

12 points of damage.

Splat.

Right in one of its many eyes.

Okay, that finished Breathless's turn.

Byrne,

go ahead and roll a death saving throw for me.

Okay.

Let's do.

Let's do it.

Roll your tiniest.

I feel so alive.

When you rolled last time.

No, it's not.

No, it's not.

Okay.

Come here.

Say it.

Oh,

I I know, I know, you were right.

See, it's not the one.

No, it's not the one.

This is the one that I rolled.

Oh, God.

And so I'm going to roll the green ones.

Okay, okay.

It's one.

So that's two fails.

Two failed death saving throws.

Don't roll green on your saving throws.

I know.

Don't roll green on your saving throws.

That means that this isn't okay.

Shit, shit, fuck.

Okay.

All right.

The one you just rolled.

All right.

Brace.

I'm going to roll it for mine.

Those are both ones that I've rolled.

Ones on.

Why did you do that?

Did you?

No, it's a four.

Oh,

that's a failed death story, Briss.

Why would you do that?

Oh, no!

You're not touching one of those.

That was your second, right?

Second failure, yeah, yep, yep, yep.

Okay, okay.

Doreen, it's your turn.

Come on, baby.

Okay, okay,

get your hands in the game.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I have to see, I have to see.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Our hands are doing the game.

I don't seriously hear we are doing anything tactically wrong.

Is this serious?

Oh my god, actually, this is.

Holy fuck, please.

Yeah, so I I can get up now.

You can do nothing.

You can't do that.

Half your movement to stand.

So half your movement to stand up.

Half a movement to stand up.

Correct.

And then you look around you and you see

Imogen on the ground, unconscious but pulled free.

Auram on the ground within a smashed hand crater in the ground, not moving.

Fern and Breas both side of you, unconscious, not moving.

My handfuls.

Everybody else looking like absolute shit.

Yeah, you see Ashen holding on by a thread but fury in his bones, and Lodna right next to it, with two other Lodnas floating around, also looking fairly hurt.

What do you do?

So four down.

Cheney's over in the corner with one leg hiked up in the air, just trying to lick his own.

I've always wanted a charge.

Now's the time.

Four down.

Yeah.

So I think just weekly I will use my 15 feet to just fly straight up.

from where I'm at.

Your flying speed is 40.

40.

So I give you.

So half of that would be 20, I'd say.

I'm just kind of trying to go above everyone and straight down.

It's my, I've been saving it.

Save what?

Yeah, yeah.

Come on, man.

Straight down, epicenter in the middle of them.

Level, seventh level.

Mass cure ones.

Let's fucking go.

Roll big, roll big, baby.

I know, Finky's crawling.

It's five, right?

Let's do good.

Great.

Seven and seven.

Fourteen plus 6.

20 plus another 6.

26 plus 3.

Whoa.

29.

Whoa.

And.

29 hit points to...

I have 6 targets.

I'll pick.

It's everyone, right?

That's everybody that's

six targets.

Choose up to 6 creatures.

Each target regains hit points equal to 5d8.

Yeah.

Plus your charisma.

Yeah, which is 3.

Yeah, so it's 29.

So 29 hit points to 6 targets.

You have 7 within range.

Who does not get healed?

Everybody who's down gets up.

Right?

Okay.

So, Fern, Braus, Orum,

Imogen?

Sure.

So either Ashton, you, or

Ladna do not heal.

Which of them does not get healed?

I would argue.

No, no, no, you gotta do yourself.

I I can't do any DPS.

We got one round.

I don't have much left to heal.

How much hit points?

How many hit points do you have right now?

Like 15.

I've gotten your image up.

So I'm ever.

You can heal still?

If I choose to.

No.

I'll stick with my choice.

Okay.

I don't want it.

Alright, so every so

29 hit points.

Two.

Fern, Laudna, Braeus, Imogen, Ashton, Orum.

29.

Let's get those menus out.

That's your movement.

That's your action.

You just have your bonus.

Can I, uh,

and this is such a basic bard question to ask at the end of the road.

Can you answer this?

Can two people be inspired?

Can I, if I have one more inspiration?

You can inspire a single target.

A single target.

Correct.

So if chat already has...

No, no, I mean, chat already has it.

Can I do it again and somebody else can be?

Correct, yeah, you can inspire it.

Oh, that's what I'm asking.

Okay, yeah, yeah.

You can have multiple people inspired at once.

Then I'll give inspiration to our other bard and healer, Breyus.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Whoa.

Alright, take a D12 inspiration diver in the middle.

But I betrayed you.

Why are you treating me with kindness?

For some reason, I still trust you.

Alright.

At the end of your turn,

use one legendary action to attack Imogen.

With the claw.

Where is she?

You're on the ground, so it's a banish.

Under torn.

Is that near me?

Natural three.

You're a very close to you.

17.

Wow.

No.

And

a

25.

Except Truth Bearer, fabled plate of Uthor Vendro.

How close do you have to be next to him?

I can't see.

You are 15 feet from her.

Sorry.

I know.

Such a good name.

That's 26 points of slashing damage to you on the ground.

Oh my god.

Are you still yourself?

Yeah.

That's six points left.

Hey!

26 or 23?

26.

Try it.

Three points.

Okay.

That's all you need.

Alrighty.

Chutney, you're up.

I go over to Imogen and I start applying slick shimmer oil for a minute, just greasing greasing her up

to apply 10 temporary hypnophies.

Is this how you apply it to Imogen?

How did you even get to me, Chad?

Don't question it.

The arm in the corner,

the melee on that thing is like 30 feet, right?

Yeah, it's pretty far range.

It's bedonk, so

I can't even leave its melee without invoking an attack on opportunity, right?

Probably.

Yeah, I mean, you can move within its range without invoking Pokemon, but as soon as you leave it.

So, if you get beyond 30 feet, it'll take it.

I actually can't cast shatter again,

which means I'm stuck there.

I mean, you can move within that 30 feet.

You just yeah, I just don't think I can get within melee of the head.

And that what is the head?

Is the arm 30 feet from the head?

The arm is somewhere between 30 and 35.

It is

30

about 30 feet from the head.

Otherwise, I can't do anything because I've hit the arm, which is worthless.

I will try my luck at moving towards the head and staying within the melee of the arm.

Okay, what's your movement?

Oh, my movement's speed move.

It's 80 with the boots this morning.

Yeah, so you make it right there, right in the cusp.

You remain in melee range.

You do not get an opportunity attack.

Bonkers.

That's bonkers.

I'll take two swings with turmoil.

It's going to use reaction to condensed glass and gain 20 temporary hit points.

Have advantage.

Maybe we'll get lucky.

That's 29 to hit.

That hits.

The second one, I don't get crits on 19, do I?

Nope, I don't think so.

Because I'm not wearing that stupid bib!

25.

25.

Does that hit?

It does.

Okay.

First one.

No, it's still up.

Plus 6 is 18.

Plus 6 is 20.

Is your hammer still in its mouth?

No, the hammer is just where I left it.

24 points of damage.

I'm trying to

get in.

We'll see how it goes.

7 points of thunder, so 14.

So 38 points, with 14 of that being thunder.

Great.

Awesome.

Heavy hit in the back.

You knock off temporary hit points, but you also take

nine points of psychic damage.

I'll take six because I heal three at the beginning of this.

There you go.

Those points are hurting.

10.

I'll have 6 is 17.

Plus 6 is 23.

23 points of damage plus 5 points of thunder for 10.

33 points.

Yeah, 33 points.

Ooh, nice round.

You're just hitting the back of it best you can, wielding in your arm the weapon, the implement, the instrument of the one that first brought you all together.

The silver symbol of Estaros.

That's right, it is.

Carving into the back of this creature's head, with each thunderous blast in its back, more crystals spreading and flying.

You don't even have a visual range on if your friends are safe or not in the moment, as you are just giving in to the wolven urge to destroy and just hacking at it from behind.

That's all I've got.

Finishes your turn, Chetney.

All right.

That's going to bring us to initiative to count 20.

One.

Only one thing is going to move.

The head

is going to.

savage there

fuck

okay

also an a chinese turn

doesn't have those back so I can't use those I can't use them

now you know what sorry it's going to go ahead and shift there instead

because it doesn't can't use other special attacks can use its other two legendary actions to

go go after you, Ashton.

Alright, man.

That's going to be

a natural two.

Oh, you missed.

Hold on.

That's a 16 total.

That doesn't hit.

I'm using Dreadful Misfortune.

What is that?

Dreadful Misfortune.

I've never heard you say that.

I've never said it.

You said you've been used it once a day.

120 episodes in.

Use it last fight.

How many times can you use it?

That was.

This is my last one because

it burns a Chaos Burst.

Yeah, right.

It's my last Chaos Burst.

I think you roll that.

Use my chaos burst plus my reaction.

Enemy must attack themselves for half damage.

Okay.

All right.

So that's half damage on himself as he bites that on his own tongue.

We've all been there.

Just the worst.

That would be 41 points of damage reduced to 20.

So he takes

20 points of damage to itself from biting its own tongue.

As it tries to snap and bite at you,

your presence alters the space and probability around it, and it ends up just carving a big chunk of its tongue just gets severed.

It kind of hits the ground and starts writhing around.

Oh, no.

Oh, that's going to finish its reaction.

That brings us to Imogen.

Let's go.

Come on.

Let's go.

Okay.

I'm going to go on my hands and knees.

And as I start to rise up, I look down and I look at my hand and I see the ring that the Archar gave me.

It's time.

Wait, wait, what?

Oh, yeah.

The Ring of Remembrance.

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

So, as an action,

I can activate the arcane power within this band.

This is an Abubakar special.

If I roll, I'm going to roll a D20, and if I roll above my current hit points, then I cast Meteor Swarm.

Whoa!

Are you serious?

But if I cast below it,

I'm fucking dead.

What?

I take 20d6 fire and 20d6 bludgeoning against myself.

Oh, my God.

How many hit points do you have left?

How in love with you I am?

I have three hit points.

Okay, so you have to roll a four or higher.

I have to roll a four or a higher.

And I am one of the ones.

If I don't, I'm dead.

I got to roll

equal or

equal or higher, it says?

Equal or lower than my current hit points, I die.

Four or higher.

Make sure you pick this die carefully, because if it kills you, people are going to want to buy that someday.

Charity auction.

$20,000.

Oh, God.

I love how dark y'all are.

Honey, I can't do it.

Oh, boy.

Everybody put a hand on

image.

Put a hand on image.

Well, that's a weird.

12!

We're all in one.

Come on.

Come on.

You're out of.

Alright, so those are 40-foot radius spheres.

We're all dead.

No, wait.

No.

Well, no, no, no.

She can place them where she's dead.

Where do you want to place them?

This is the center of it, and it covers

this radius.

And you get to drop

four of them.

Well, you can kill all the hands, too.

I can kill all the hands.

Yeah.

So I'm going to drop one here

that gets the head in this hand.

And then

all of them can only be hit once.

It's not like you can do multiple damage.

One, this one, there, and there.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Oh, my God.

Yeah.

Okay.

This is a one-off.

This is a ninth level.

Okay.

So roll 4dd6 for me, please.

40d6.

It's 20d6 fire damage and 20d6 blood cream damage.

You cannot

use a sorcery point

to transmute it?

Thunder

read the metamagic for me.

Spend a sorcery point to change the damage type to one from one to another.

I can, as my cage reloads,

of a spell I cast.

Hold on, it reloaded on me like

it's in a water.

That makes sense to me.

I can change it.

And then you're casting it through the item.

I can change fire to thunder.

I can't change bludgeoning, but I can change fire to thunder.

Okay, hold on a second.

Let me check one thing.

That's a whole ball game.

When I cast a spell,

this says I immediately cast Meteor Swarm spell.

So, this ring says that I cast it.

Hmm.

Let me see.

It's like a full ball game anyway.

I know, but.

But it's a fucking ball or clock.

I mean, there's a reason.

You gotta be a bad one.

That was the get her up with one point.

That was him.

Get her up with one point.

It is technically a spell you're casting through the ring.

So you can transmute the fire.

Yes,

so roll 20.

So we'll separate this.

Roll 20d6 for bludgeoning.

Okay.

Okay.

Can we get an ad read for these dice rolls?

Guys, you can buy the dice that she's using for this roll.

Can you?

At Laura's Etsy set.

I gave you that.

This is a green one hand.

Have you ever been happier with that fist full of dice?

I mean,

13, 14.

Her dice collection all these years has been working up to this.

Roll them all at once.

I have some, but you guys want them rolling.

Okay, you're twenty.

I've got twenty.

You gotta do it.

Okay.

Okay, okay, okay, wait, where's the sixes?

They're all one.

I've never heard of 40d6.

Wait, what was.

Shh, don't say numbers.

18.

28.

Keyless key.

38.

Oh, that was just fault.

38.

It was like lots of d6.

48.

Yeah, that's fine.

58.

58.

60.

65.

70.

74.

Okay, 74.

74

for the first time.

74 bludgeoning.

Now roll that again for the thunder damage.

I can't hold them all.

What am I going to do with all these dice?

Oh my God.

Oh God.

There's one that's cocked.

Right there.

That's a six.

That's very cocked.

Hold on.

Five.

Okay, okay, okay.

Hold on, hold on.

I gotta get my sixes.

So that's 18, 24,

30,

40,

50.

Starting on the floor.

Still make duck save for Adding.

56.

Got to do duck save for a comet.

56.

50.

They're two different things.

That's true.

One's made of

66.

73.

For comets, now there's something neat.

73, 75.

77.

80.

Oh, my God.

That's 154.

All right.

Well, first thing we'll see them make their saves.

So for the hands,

the far hand

fails, that hand is absolutely obliterated.

This hand.

Well, here, I'll put it this way.

Describe to me how this...

Describe to me how you conjure these meteors and what it looks like in the middle of this chamber as you look down at your hand.

As I look down at my hand, I think back to

the vision that we watched of the Arch Heart calling down the meteor swarm to destroy Aeor.

And I'm going to channel that.

But there's no sky open above us.

So this chamber starts to rumble.

And

my telekinetic abilities are going to start breaking down giant rocks from the ceiling and slamming them down.

As the rocks begin to dislodge from the top with incredible telekinetic force, you you watch as purple lightning

begins to completely swarm around the outside of them, forming them into small storm bombs, essentially.

Wind starts to swirl around me as I press my hands down into the ground.

My hair flies up.

Why not?

This hand is absolutely obliterated.

This far hand over there

succeeds with its save which means it takes 30

eight points lessening damage and still 80 points of thunder damage which obliterates it

she is the storm baby

this one is destroyed

big money big money that one

the seven plus

nine on the next is going to be sixteen.

Twenty-two.

So that's going to be 74, 80 is doubled.

So it's 160 plus 74, 234 points of damage.

Image and Timold.

How do you want to go?

Oh my god.

In the back of your mind, you hear a distant voice kind of echo.

Absolutely, beautiful.

Oh my god.

I'm gonna look up from where I am, which is right at it's

right underneath it.

I'm gonna make eye contact with Pradathos.

You're mine.

Energy begins to billow in its mouth.

The dark beam begins to reform.

All of you, your vision is clouded with

complete and utter dust abuscation.

Shards of shale and rock and crystal pepper your bodies to the point where you have to curl into a ball to maintain any semblance of not losing your vision or eyes through the mattering of danger.

Then the quiet.

As the dustlay begins to settle

and the broken, shattered glass head of Perdathos

itself is crumbled and motionless

what elements of its arms still remain themselves also back to the glass pillars that once marbled through this land

floating there hair adrift

rudesborn vessel image and temple

A few of you are still unconscious though battle is over

you still unconscious

So here, you all

sit

as out of the

crystalline form of the Perdathos head, a light

gently begins to emerge

and a

semi-humanoid entity

made of gentle light seems to stumble out.

The one that you encountered when you first arrived.

And it looks towards you.

Can we go in her?

Just walks forward like a toddler.

The matron told me to...

to contain it.

But...

Its light begins to dim, and you watch as its body kind of splinters into dozens, hundreds of small moats of sparking light.

And it just...

drifts into imagin.

And whereas when Perdathos had merged with its vessel on your arrival and wrestled control from you.

In this instance, it's like cradling the tiniest

little frog or field mouse.

It is diminished,

it is tired,

and for the moment,

docile.

And beneath it all,

it's already begun to grow.

Are you alright?

Sophia

is it affecting you?

Not yet,

but I think it will.

We should hurry.

We need to talk to the gods.

You talk to them again.

I pull back out the mask.

You look at the mask, and it is currently like grayed and crumbled.

And as you kind of glance over it, it kind of falls apart in your hand.

Like old paper-mâché.

Think they're waiting for us.

Let's go meet them.

Out of here.

Out of here.

This is it, we're

risking it all

again.

That was incredible.

That was

incredible.

Thank you, Dorian.

You're welcome.

This is scary.

Should we leave?

We have to hurry.

Yeah, if we have to take it out of here, we gotta go as fast as possible.

To where?

Out.

Just out.

Everything else, I think, will work itself out, but we have to get out of here.

Now.

Gotta go down.

Sections of ceiling that were dislodged have left

what looks to be a semi-fractured ceiling above.

And cracks within it are beginning to spider and spread.

What What was exposed above, you can see what looks like the continued glass of the prime pillar, itself the pulse now grown dark.

You hear another loud crack, like a massive glacier suddenly shifting and breaking.

We don't teleport anymore.

Down the hall, you hear a voice weak.

Imogen?

Mama!

And that kind of like stepping through barriers, still semi-translucent from lewdness in your work, you see

Liliana kind of holding herself, her coat closed.

Does that smell like Liliana?

Uh-huh.

May perception check.

15.

15.

Oh, no.

A smell whisper?

How does that even work?

What chisel and ivory started

there.

I'm

just going to cast a message into Imogen's head.

You're gonna be a prime target right now.

We need to hurry.

Out of this room.

Judith don't trust anyone.

This is not me casting blame or doubt.

Is this gone?

What?

Is it done?

It's done.

We need to go.

Where?

I don't know.

I am shouting everybody.

You all start stepping back from where you came, back into the outer edges and layers of the prime pillar.

You hear heavy cracks below in the chamber behind you.

Part of it begins to shuffle in

and collapse and fill with rocks, glass, and debris.

Does anybody have any healing?

We run.

Sure, we'll.

I have a shitty potion.

Oh, yeah, we have potions.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

But everybody needs to take one.

Orm is starting to, little tendrils are spreading like trust him, and he's actually starting to repair while we move.

And I'm going to use my 35 passive perception while I still have it and just try to listen for

Ludinus coming back or anything as we go through.

So we don't just check for me.

Take this.

Really?

What is it?

29 points of health.

It's alcohol.

Fucking hey.

27.

7 plus what?

4?

Yeah.

Take it.

Thank you, Brace.

I'll make out with you later.

You all continue into the next chamber, back to where you had defeated.

You can see the bodies still of the destroyed other Ruidus born that were sealing Liliana.

for the near attempt of Ludinus taking her permanently within himself, as well as the dark sludge that was once Lutinus' body.

You head further out as elements around you are

starting to stumble and fall.

One of them slams close to the next of you.

This side of the table, did you all make dexterity saving throws for that?

If you're next to me, you get a plus four.

Are we close to that table?

Say everyone on this side of the table does.

29.

Alright, take five points of piercing damage.

24.

24, five points of piercing damage.

29 plus 4, 33.

5 points of piercing damage.

Natural 20.

You all like the blast of glass shards that kind of shoots out from the impact kind of peppers you like a series of small bullets, and you all manage to just shrug it off mostly as you rush further into the large crack, the massive crevice that

was the kind of opening to the prime pillar that you crawled into.

And as you kind of step through, you realize that beyond this is just an open chasm.

You are still in the core of the moon.

Oh, geez, how are we going to get out of here?

I don't know.

Don't feel so good.

Are fear?

Is anyone chasing us?

You should take this.

I cast cure winds on myself.

I can do a fourth level cure window and a second level.

I have some.

I'm just going to call out.

With Seedling, I get 10 hit points every minute, so five minutes later, 10 minutes later.

We haven't gotten to five or ten yet.

No, I know.

But yeah, good enough.

Who's low?

Who's super low?

I can do stuff too.

What is low me?

I'm

under 92 hit points.

Every round I would heal three points, but we're not on initiative.

So

I think it's a bloodlust thing.

So it's not if we're not in combat, it doesn't happen.

No, it happens in combat until you're at half health.

Does it happen out of combat, too?

I think so, yeah.

Okay.

Oh, boy.

Do you think the mice have a

quick rise, man?

Express elevator?

Yeah.

Keep running.

Yeah.

You all

continue through the snake of the

chasm and the glass until eventually you come to that extended platform where you can see the open chasm above you.

There are the pillars that you leapt down to come here, but they're, you know, each is about 30 feet from each going up there, and they're all elevated at this point, so you'd have to.

I'm going to send a message.

Do I have any third level?

I have a fourth level left.

I have 25 points of healing.

Oh, wow, thank you.

Do we have time to help each other out, cast spells, heal, and stuff?

You have a moment here.

You aren't like immediately collapsing, but you do hear the collapsing behind you, and you do see other fast parts of the chasm.

There are the heavy sound of

those cracks kind of continuing to break and spiral.

And in this place, when it echoes, when something

that noise goes off, that

it's like

it's echoing around the chasm, bouncing off all the stone walls.

I'm gonna send a message out to Caleb.

To Caleb.

To Caleb.

Alright.

Um.

We did it.

But everything's fallen apart.

Are you here?

Can you get us out?

Uh, does Caleb have spell slots enough?

Oh

my gosh.

The last time you played?

Oh, my good gravy.

I don't know.

Uh, give me a sec.

While I was figuring that out, I'm i'm i'm like just kind of shell-shocked absent-mindedly playing my mandolin uh that dariac gave me but that was great mandolin because i have slots i have like little low-level healing slots for that yeah so i've got i've got four left

in that amount of time could i do four level three

healing spells yeah you can okay yeah i'm twiddling around playing bad songs you know like somebody plays guitar and they can't do a full song it's just snippets of songs that's what i'm doing and i'll heal chat

for good seven, seven, six, fourteen, twenty, twenty-three.

That last cable.

Eight, five, sixteen, to

who's got low?

Are you low?

What are you at, Ash?

I'm 37.

37.

You're low.

I'm 29.

Yeah, I'll take

16.

I got two more.

You still on fire?

8 to 13 to Breas.

Thank you.

That's good.

My last one.

Yes.

8, 8, 5.

So how does Caleb respond?

To who?

They're at the end-ish of where they were.

They are in the process now of, I'd say, finishing out

capturing those who still remain after the Weave Mine was destroyed.

It's almost like when the Weave Mine was destroyed, much like Sauron to Mordor, all those that were there to defend them are now terrified and without their connected tether of the Hive mine.

So at this point you've all been rounding up those who have surrendered and kind of in the process of finishing out taking captives and survivors of the assault on the Ark'Creonum.

You do?

Is there anybody else that you can think of nearby that might be able to help?

Ira?

Ira.

Can he teleport?

Do you think Tevon?

Tevon Shake,

my boyfriend?

He can't do anything, right?

He can do so much.

She's the greatest.

Take it easy.

She's so good.

Could Ira get us out?

He can get himself in.

What about Plane Rider Rin?

She's on the moon?

She's alive.

You saw her at the top of Kriveris.

We already did.

Wait, was she alive?

You freed her from her statue.

Oh, that's right.

She's a plane rider, like you, Chetney.

We were disguised, so she, like, bamped away.

Let's go find her.

Wait!

We already, we did a short rest with Mighty Nine at one point, right?

For Arcane Recovery?

We did it.

I'd say it's probably

been time for a short rest after you've...

But I don't know if we, like, in there traversing.

I can't remember if we took one or not.

We didn't take a short rest when they were...

Well, then I could use Arcane Recovery once per day when you finish a short rest you can choose expended spell slots to cover up to a combined level of 10 which means I could get a

I could teleport

to

you

but then I wouldn't be able to get away I could fly some people across this chasm sure I could fly yeah

I could fly a couple people because even if we get in touch with plane rider Ren, she doesn't know where none of the slots can be seventh level or higher.

It can be sixth level or higher or seven.

She'll know where a fellow Plane Rider is.

Who else is there?

Oh, look in your notebooks.

I mean, the only person that would know where we are to get to us is Ira.

Ira or Plane Rider Inn.

But like, Plane Rider Inn doesn't even necessarily know

here.

Kayla's from here.

Because Plane Rider Rin was frozen on Alexandria.

No, Plane Rider Rin was frozen on Axandria and then brought to Crozier.

I know I understand that, but would not have a knowledge of where Belle's hells are right now.

People have ways of remote seeing.

Yeah,

okay.

She goes to places she doesn't know all the things.

I think she's an excellent,

I guess.

Can people teleport?

The cracking sound gets louder from behind.

Planetarin is on the planet with her.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

She's the one who's in the middle of the planet.

Okay, I'm going to send a message to Plane Rider in.

Okay.

Where are we?

We're at the core by the hollowed cave.

Yeah, we're wearing that.

We went down garbage.

Yeah, but we're in the hollowed cage, right?

Yeah, that's where we are.

Or you are outside of the hollowed cage.

You're in the bottom of the prime pillar near the core of the moon.

All right.

Inspiration.

Rin, we need help.

We're at the hollow cage.

Everything's fallen apart.

But we succeeded.

Can you get us out?

There's a brief moment of kind of heavy breath across the way.

My goodness.

Really?

Well.

Let me see what I can do.

That's all you get back.

Okay.

You likely would not resist the scry spell.

No.

Yeah.

Okay.

You sense something remotely viewing the space where you're at.

I would like someone to roll a D100 for me, please.

Chenney's good at that.

Yep.

There's one thing

I'm good for.

Oh done, D nipples.

74.

That's good.

74 is an on-target roll.

Yes!

Not, but a moment later, there's a shh, a swirl of energy, a plume of kind of red-green flame and dust, and there standing next to you, you see the beautiful image of Plane Rider Rin.

Still looking a bit frazzled, a bit dusty, as they appear.

Quite a pickle you've all found yourselves in.

First off, thank you very much for the assist.

I'm sorry, we looked a little spooky earlier.

They seem like they've taken their

coat they had and wrapped it around the one missing arm

and kind of put with the other hand out there.

This looks like it's not holding very well either.

Would love a direct route out of this planet.

That'd be great.

Off the moon.

If we can

lava.

Lava.

Where is the only one I know is the bloody bridge?

Oh, that's

halfway back, right?

Wait, what about

the secret entrance?

The secret entrance.

Where's that?

We can tell her where to find that.

I

can.

hoop boy.

I am going to.

How many people can you take with you?

I'm going to take eight and myself.

Oh, but my mom.

Put her in the hole.

First plus second.

Maybe.

Yeah.

I'll go in.

Let your mom be out.

Who's going to hold their breath?

Who's got a high constitution?

I can hold my breath forever.

Well, forever.

Oh, well, then you're going in the hole.

Put me in.

Put me me in coach.

I'm gonna be useless.

You can judge me in that way.

I will cast

a very high-level silent image to try and show a plane rider in

the private, the secret entrance.

Did one of us pick up like a pebble or something from that area too?

Because that can help as like an anchor for teleportation.

We did pick up some rocks, but we did.

I picked up I

Go ahead.

I have this amulet that I scooped off of a dead elf body from that area.

Oh, from the buried ruins that we were talking about.

Yeah, I picked up a rock from the shoreline

at the lake.

Yeah.

Does teleportation work from the

shit?

Yeah, but

you got the amulet amulet.

So I'm gonna pull out this this uh

what was the name of this damn thing?

The bloody bridge is down and is probably the golden lattice work around the moon, right?

No, we don't the lattice work around the moon is probably still

lattice work is associated with the divine game, so that's still

so the elevator's gone, but our secret entrance is

built in like that.

Like you said.

Amulet of Cursed Life.

I have this amulet of cursed life that we got from that area, if that's where we're gonna go.

Right, that's our country.

Amulet of Cursed Life, you got an Aeor, if I recall it.

Oh, you did get it from Aeor.

My good berries are all gone.

That's right,

good berries.

Yeah, did anyone grab anything associated with that reach?

Let's see, let's see.

Sorry, this cable was like this.

Hold it on.

Go back place.

Yeah, as you've constructed this image, you see Rins kind of looking at it.

Well, it is very um

amorphous.

Certainly possible.

It's just a bit um huh.

There's uh

ruins that were kind of sideways and upside down.

Right, I've seen many of those.

Uh

we can give it a shot.

It is a very good chance we're not quite um at where we're trying.

I mean we could just vamp to the outside of the city and go.

It's just

don't mind walking.

How far is it?

Oh, that's right.

That's a long lot.

That's a long

time

to go to the Bloody Bridge.

I mean, there's got to be.

The Bloody Bridge is probably down.

The Bloody Bridge is far further from where you guys.

You guys discovered this area on the way to Kriveris from the Bloody Bridge.

Yeah.

So the secret entrance is actually closer to Kriveris, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

When we came through the secret entrance, did we see a city or a tower right after we left?

No,

it was a few hours of travel, if I recall, to the outside of Kriviris.

Yeah.

And that was the first sort of site we came to.

Oh, there's a shop in the

Well, we're stuck here.

No, I guess we can show plan.

We can describe it.

So

I can take a risky attempt at bringing us there and maybe showing up somewhere and like it, or we could go to the outside of the city and just book it the rest of the way.

How are we feeling?

You tell me.

Well, I mean, we know we can safely get outside the city.

Yeah.

Right.

maybe that is just a couple hours of yeah of travel.

Sure, let's go

to your tummy.

Yeah,

I mean

hours days.

What's the difference?

Okay, so someone's jumping in a portable hole for

a minute.

A minute.

I'll do it.

I can stay behind.

No, it's all right.

We have a workaround though, Briss.

Yeah, but I don't want Dorian to have to

go in there.

It's hard to hold it disgusting dead bodies.

Open the hole!

I can hold my breath forever.

No, I'm getting in there.

I'm slow.

A splintering massive piece of blasting stone hits.

I need everyone to make a dexterity saving for this.

Oh, we waited too long.

Yes, we did.

Ooh, we killed him.

Wait!

26.

26, you take six points of bludgeoning damage.

Do you still, after you die, 71 consciousness?

On this?

You take 12 points of bludgeoning damage.

I'm still a wolf, so that's three.

That's awesome.

Dorian?

16.

Was it Dex?

Dex.

26.

26.

You take 6 points of bludgeoning damage.

18.

You take 6 points of bludgeoning damage.

11?

You take 12 points of bludgeoning damage.

Imagine?

20.

You take 6 points of bludgeoning damage.

21.

21.

Both of you guys take 6 points of bludgeoning damage.

The platform you're on kind of cracks a bit.

There's just enough smooth glass that you can try and lay the hole down to put somebody in it.

Oh, God, hurry.

Whoever's gonna do that and try and find the flattest service to do so against like the glass platform is your best bet whoever's gonna try that go ahead and make an investigation check to see if you can find an area

I'll just do it.

All right

You have inspiration.

I do I gave you inspiration.

How much is that six

It's not gonna be enough.

Eight.

Well, fifteen?

Fifteen's enough.

Okay.

15's enough.

It wasn't terribly challenging, but there is a chance that there wasn't a surface here that can even lay it down on.

And then you gotta get your real creative.

You find one area where you're kind of pressing and ironing it out, find one little lip, and you tug it one direction, and then suddenly

the hole operates there in the middle of the glass.

Go, in, in, in, go.

Whoever can hold their breath?

Go, go.

You can hold it right, definitely.

Go.

Blink it.

Jim and sign your feet hit something soft.

And just as the hole closes up, the smell of rot overtakes your senses.

I have an elven doll.

That's true.

I don't smell a thing.

A little bit still gets up in your nostrils.

You're gonna get just a little bit of it, even though you try not to.

It kind of catches the palate.

Before we go, I scooped up an ancient elven doll from

Elven doll.

You did!

You did.

All right.

You hand that to Rin?

If that's all right, we're going.

Huh.

Delightfully creepy.

Yes.

But

hopefully it'll work.

Okay, because

it takes it and kind of like

drapes it over the shoulder of the missing arm and begins to pull you all closely right as the platform like kind of

you feel the glass beginning to splinter and you look down it's like looking on uh a heavy glass like a thick glass platform you're on and you're watching cracks like

slowly okay spread through it i'm gonna scoop up a tiny little fragment of that glass and just take it okay

uh all right hold on

puts the hand out as it does all of a sudden this uh spiral of runes shh operates in the air and wraps all of you.

All of you are pulled in, shh, like a massive tether kind of tugs tightly and pulls you in, and then shh, operates again.

And you're now standing in the middle by the side of the river that is pouring through the underground elven ruins of the ancient city that was drawn to Ruidis.

Creepy doll for the wind.

As an associated object, you don't even have to roll.

In the water, we should go.

We should go.

Let's go.

Let Dorian out.

I'm just kidding.

Didn't we like make little markings

to annotate so we for our markings to go to go there?

Doesn't take you too long, uh, but the other thing that catches your attention is the heavy sound of

foot movement and armor.

And as you approach the portion where the portal releases into this, you can see there is now stationed and amast a massive army of

ours, huh?

Of ours?

Oshari?

Not Ashari.

Of all manner of holy warriors and soldiers.

As it looks like the remaining forces of Vassalheim have now begun to march through this opening onto Ruidas.

The whole hallway is just filled as people are pouring through and just regiments are moving through.

What do you do?

Turn around!

Turn around!

Pradathos has been defeated!

The situation has changed.

We have to get out of here immediately!

As you say these noises, the people turn and look, and people start whispering and calling, and someone shouts over, Das General!

Dust General!

You watch as a male elf kind of pushes through, heavily armored and decorated.

You could see a massive holy symbol of the moon weaver hanging from around their neck, and a heavy, like dark blue cloak that falls behind their black hair with streaks of white that kind of push back, and what looks to be some sort of a tattooed marking that is mirrored on each side of their face.

One eye shines gold,

steps forward.

You can see two angelic winged beings kind of flutter above as they hear this and they both have their hands on their weapons at the side.

I'm General Okirai.

You are Bell's Hels.

Yes, that's correct.

We are.

Do

I assume that your presence here means success?

It does.

Looks back towards one of the angels, and the angel kind of hovers forward a little bit.

Oh no.

She carries the God Eater.

The whole army

shifts in place.

Weapons are drawn at the ready.

You watch as another entity, heavily armored, this female Goliath with massive like claw scars down her chin.

You see these kind of like darkened, almost like dull gray stone-like eyes with burning cold pupils in the center.

She has this like heavy, thick fur hide armor over a massive metal breastplate.

You see

the symbol on the chest

that of a single bleeding eye.

You see her kind of step forward with this nasty-looking and hooked flail at her side.

And I guess it means

they gotta die too.

And General Okirises.

Wait, Busona.

We don't know.

Alright, this individual if he's on it goes like...

Now!

Let them be smited!

Come down, great one, and devour those who would devour you!

You watch as the gray eyes burn bright red like massive burning coals.

The whole room seems to...

quake as red light fills the chamber.

The stone above seems to crack and open as smoke pours forth, and you see a single burning red eye begin to fold out from the top of the tunnel above you.

As it looks like a symbol of the Runer peers forth, its muscular black skin reaching down above you.

This divine intervention called down to end this moment.

And as the Runer peeks down upon

Imogen,

it withdraws.

The stone crumbles.

And you watch as Fasuno looks confused, eyes wide.

The light fade.

Okirai says.

They cannot touch her.

And to kill her is to set it free.

What do you want?

An apology to begin with, that was so fucking rude.

Goodness Dileth has fallen.

Whispers begin to scatter about them.

And you're right, our friend

is the only thing keeping it in check.

We have things to discuss.

The Goliath steps forward a bit, still shaken, but trying to put on a brave face.

Discuss with who?

Certainly not you.

Why don't you step aside?

We'd like to talk to the manager.

Kirai looks to the angels, and the angels hold their blades are out.

I witnessed this moment.

We would call for them to be imprisoned, but I do not think even our binds would hold.

I think we need to get to Vassal High.

I agree.

All the angelic figures look at each other.

They look down at the general.

The general looks absolutely pale in the face.

Don't worry, we'll let you accompany us.

That's a better deal than you're gonna get otherwise.

We believe many of your masters are already expecting us.

Okay.

I would like those of you who wish to make a persuasion check do so.

Those of you who wish to make an intimidation check instead, you may do that.

This is a group

unsettling presence for my intimidation check.

Sure.

I'll allow that in the general.

Disadvantage.

This would be fun.

I think unsettling

presence.

Hang on.

I think it gives them

funny.

Starting over here with you, Chetney.

12.

12.

Alright.

He has disadvantage on his next row.

Okay, so in this case, it wouldn't necessarily help the check, but 22.

22 intimidation.

Okay, great.

Nat 20.

Yeah, they're totally different though.

It's crazy.

I'm stunned.

That's beautiful.

I want to focus on Usana.

I want to focus my persuasion.

Oh, Okira, you mean?

No.

no, Usana.

Oh, I see, I see.

Okay.

And I'm just kind of

surely you want to.

Usano, yeah.

Surely you want to let us go.

And I'll kind of like rub her little, I'll rub her hand a little bit.

I'll just smile and wink at her.

Pulls the hand back.

And like, almost like seems to bite her teeth in reaction.

Like,

she's going to dream about you.

And there is maybe a glimmer of being turned on.

Not 22.

22.

Alrighty.

28.

Alright.

35.

Out of 17.

Persuasion.

13.

Intimidation.

Okay.

You're pretty weak right now.

Oh, I have disadvantaged.

You watch as the angels look at each other.

Their eyes suddenly go golden.

And they seem to be whispering under their breath while their eyes kind of peer off past the rock and beyond.

At once their eyes return to their normal kind of like pale white coloration.

You may continue.

We will escort you.

Thanks.

Look down the general and general this.

We will take you to the walls, but we cannot take you into Vasselheim.

That is for the Dawn marshals to decide.

Alright, come on, chop, chop.

Let's go.

There is just an uh an air of

fear and paralysis throughout this entire battalion of scattered sources and forces.

And as you step forward, they all give a wide berth.

The soldiers all looking upon you and specifically at you.

And you notice, Imogen, as you walk, both you and Fern, that kind of ruidous-born energy is not just a tether, but it is that...

drifting emanating power that red energy is just like a force of red heat that just kind of drips off you and vanishes in the air.

You both are together in proximity and tethered.

More or less, while you are the vessel, you together are the ones bearing the God Eater beyond its boundary into Xandria and about to walk it to the gate of Vaselheim.

As you step through, you see the soldiers of various

faith callings.

Holy symbols of all sorts and types set aside to inner portions of this militaristic regiment.

You see well-adorned holy warriors, you see makeshift mercenaries, you see armored devils and angels awkwardly forced to step shoulder to shoulder to make room as you walk through

until you all emerge from the still separated Lake Umamu.

and set forth onto Xandria, burying Perdathos, the red end for the first first time in millennia.

And the moment you cross that threshold, a chill takes the atmosphere, and you watch as a number of the holy warriors around clutch their holy symbols.

A number of them almost in unison look to you two and say,

they know it's here.

You step outside of the lake, your boots sloshing against the now still exposed sediment

until you come to the edge where the Ishari are waiting, though themselves kind of put to the side, more or less overrun by the forces of Vaselheim.

As we're walking down to the water, um, Orm will look up to Plane Rider Rin.

Plane Rider,

would you come with us?

I'd have your company just a little bit longer.

Oh, I think it's best I can explain what I've seen here as well.

It's been a very interesting day, indeed.

Yes, I think I will come along.

I mean, not everyone gets to

witness whatever you're planning to do.

Stay close

as you all step to the edge.

while your sisters are not present,

other Ashari remain.

And within a brief conversation, the soldiers escort you and are given orders from the holy warriors to maintain

a tree tunnel to the outside walls.

There you are met

with the midday

brightness

and snowfall of the early morning in Vassalheim

as it seems that through moments of time and shift of movement, hours have passed, the dawn light just cresting over the mountain range as the chill hits your shoulders,

and there atop the exterior wall looking down upon you,

hundreds of crossbows and ballista

pointed directly.

and that's where we're gonna pick up next episode

the red end field mouse

wow with a hell of a bargaining ship

the ruiner took a peep and was like

that cleric was like i finally got divine intervention to pop off
