Good day, all you Doric.

Stone step your way into the stinky dragon, lap up our latest latest libation,

twist my arm, and arm and arm and arm and arm and arm and arm and arm.

It's a mixture of void essence espresso, squid beak syrup, tentacular gripped cream, topped with a vanilla vortex vibration.

One nip of this nebulous necro-nectar, you'll finally have the energy to start that Cephala podcast.

Avoid like the plague.

Previously, our adventurers took a truth test with Weezer, stepped into Sheath's secret headquarters, and paired off to procure some potent potion ingredients, and finally, they found their way to Awning Amphitheater.

But the alchemist wasn't alone.

Draw yourself a drip.

Let's dive into this dank drama.

I thought he died.

Yeah, what happened?

I was just very injured.

I recovered, though.

Injured.

Glad to see you back, Duncan.

I got a little mauled, but I'm fine now.

Okay.

Mauled, huh?

I'm going to roll a check on that to see if that's telling the truth.

How many arms did you say in your intro, just out of curiosity?

How many did you get?

I didn't count.

Oh, it was like eight or nine.

It was eight.

Yeah, eight.

That makes sense.

I rolled a 19 on the inside check.

Is Duncan telling the truth?

Yeah, you think so.

Okay.

I don't think we've ever done a check on the narrator.

I don't think the narrator's ever directly talked to you about that.

That's an unreliable narrator, so I don't know.

Speaking of unreliable narrators, my name is Gustavo Sorola.

I'm the dungeon master of our Putrid Party.

I'm going to hit our four players with an arrow.

No.

Okay, never mind.

You're lying again.

You're lying again.

I don't know what to believe from you anymore, Gustavo.

This week's role-playing warm-up question is: What is your character's favorite book?

Favorite book.

Bonjour.

My name is John Reisinger, and I play Matid Confis.

No, snap his raw mouth.

Make your mouth small.

Matilde.

Matilda Confisus.

I play Matid Confis, and my favorite book is obviously a book by a formidable woman.

It is called The Joy of Cooking, made by Julia Childs.

Oh, I love that.

I don't think that's the name of her book.

What is the name of her book?

I don't know.

It's like

it's French cooking for Americans, something like that.

French.

Yeah, it's something with French in it.

She does not write, she did not write the draw of cooking.

Julia, uh, trying to think, what's the motto?

What's the crotet version?

I was trying to think of that too.

Wilds, wilds, I mean,

Gulia child.

Oh, that's good.

Oh, mastering the art of French cooking.

Mastering the art of French cooking.

Yes.

A big fan of her.

Apparently, not a big enough fan to note that name of her book, but that's okay.

It's the quoteth version.

Yeah, there you go.

Yeah.

Mastering the art of cooking.

Cooking.

Barbara's bringing it today.

Barbara knew the answer.

I'll go next then.

Since I'm bringing it, I will bring my intro.

Bring it.

I'm Barbara Dunkelman, and I play Elga von Broth.

Elga Bund Brith.

It's funny to turn and look at Blake when he's doing it.

Looks like he's like making kissy faces to the microphone.

And Elga, you know, has a few favorite favorite books, but lately she's really been enjoying Twilight.

Tracks.

Team Jacob or Team Edward?

Oh, I think you know, Gustavo.

Team Bella.

She don't need no man.

Yeah, independent woman.

I don't know what Twilight's about.

She very much needed a man.

It was nothing without the man.

And

made a weird baby.

And sparkly vampires, right?

Yeah.

Twinkly.

Dogs.

I think your interest in Twilight may be a hereditary thing.

Reading Rice.

She's better.

Oh.

Okay.

I'm Barney Varney, and I'm played by Chris Damaris.

Wow.

The human cleric.

And I see.

The human cleric.

What kind of cleric?

Chris Damaris is the human cleric.

Are you a human?

What kind of cleric?

Human cleric.

Twilight?

There it is.

Bull circle.

Oh, Twilight Cleric.

Yes, I understand now.

Yes.

And my favorite book has to be The Book of Evenfall because it helps me

heal people and it makes a dragon.

Yeah.

Those are two very good things for a book to be able to drag on.

Yeah.

And you're also using an in-world book that you actually have.

Yeah.

I mean, it's no Twilight.

Well, Elga does travel around with the entire Twilight series.

This is more true.

At first, my answer was going to be the encyclopedia, and then I was like, that would be heavy.

All of them.

But it makes sense that you would be like carrying because you have four axes now.

That's true.

Which brings around the V edition of Encyclopedia.

I would say the B.

The B, Blood.

Bet.

Bet.

Bet and Blood.

Barney, do you have any favorite passages or incantations from that book?

Yes.

Evening comes at the end of the day.

It's that time when you must say good day.

Because the day has finished up.

I'm going to go and drink a cup.

of tea.

Oh, it just keeps going.

Long for long.

forgotten

something of tomorrow.

What is dragon?

Long forgotten since it gone.

Dana puts it as a dragon.

What was the thing he said?

Feed them all.

I don't know.

You guys are speaking to me.

I remember it.

14.

You put a nice little

music behind it, and you did long, and you made Chris sound cooler than he usually is.

I'm trying to find that.

In his rap.

Well,

when he summoned the dragon, with the one with the cool skateboard.

Yes.

The hip one.

While you look for the relevant Bible verse.

Yes, I'm going.

No need to poke me in the nipple.

Your nipple was over there?

That's my third one.

Hi there, I'm Blenn Gibson, and I play

you know, my favorite books, it's a toss-up between the Boy Scouts handbook.

You know, a lot of relevant information.

Loved poring over that as a little one.

It's the Groteth Boy Scouts.

Demon Scouts.

I don't know.

And the Boo Scouts.

And

the book of my own publishing.

That's right.

You guys didn't know this.

A published authority book, a chip.

Chipaney.

Yes.

It's the Homeowners Association rule book for my neighborhood.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

I wrote that myself.

What's the most commonly enforced rule in that book?

Oh, I'm a real stickler on the grass height, you know.

You know, you can't let the clover take over.

It looks looks cute, but you got to watch out because it'll just completely consume your yard.

Then all your Kentucky blues all look like poop-poo, you know.

You don't want that, Mate.

I like to think that you, you know, how like when people write their own book, they have like the author's like message at the front.

Uh-huh.

You're just like, hey there, Chipani, have a pleasure to meet you.

It was actually a message to Carol.

Well, what is this?

Dedication.

It was dedicated to Carol.

It's H-O-A.

I can't take this H-O-A.

I know, I know.

I'm a bit of a romantic.

Guys, hot in here.

Dawn be gone, but dusk remain.

I call upon the vesperbay.

Vesperbay.

Vesper, there it is.

Mine was almost as good.

Yeah, comparable, I would say.

I'm just, uh, I'm proud of myself for remembering like the first word.

Very proud of you, John.

Donkey Gone.

Donkey Kong.

Donkey Kong.

So, question for the party at large.

If anybody could answer, what is the sacred book from the last episode that I asked for passages from?

Something about the Ma.

Book of Maw, right?

I don't know.

Yeah, Book of Maw.

We were off playing in the water.

Did you all not get one?

I know,

splash.

I always take it.

It was the Divine Breath, Wisdom from the Mamon Tradition.

Divine Breath.

Listen, I just say Chipotle.

I got some pretty divine breath over here.

Yeah.

Wisdom from

the Mamon tradition.

The mamm tradition.

I knew that back and forth.

Cool.

I think we learned a lot about people's hair books.

I thought Chip would say, like, one of those, you remember those

old Time Life books, like the home repair books that Bob Villa would sell on TV?

He'd be like,

he would say like the reader's digest or something.

I thought Chip might like the home repair manuals or something like that.

My favorite book is the TV Guide.

After gathering your respective ingredients, you all make haste through the sultry shrubbery until you each come upon what is clearly the awning amphitheater.

Shaded stadium seating carved from logs encircle an elephantine stump dressed in flowers.

Standing atop the stump stage is the alchemist with his back to you looking at the sun-setting shores of the loch.

But you see no sign of the other sheaf agents.

Vibe check!

Yeah, vibe check.

Vibe check!

Should we talk to him first?

Vibe check!

Jesus!

Make your vibe checks.

All that sugar's hitting everyone.

What is it, perception?

Insight.

They don't let you tell the story.

Oh no, I've got a long block of green here.

That's fine.

Vibe check.

11.

23.

Something seems off.

The little hairs on the back of your neck stand up, and you hear a very slow clap.

Oh, no.

And high up in the shaded western stands, you see a dark figure rise from a seat in the very back.

Oh, how I love the theater.

The drama, the suspense, the twists.

And the figure steps forward into the light.

You see the pale man with blonde, curly hair wearing a top hat, black suit, and red ascot.

But he isn't alone.

Ah, but what is an outing without family?

Right, father?

And to the north, you see a young girl with piercing blue eyes emerge from shady leaves.

She curtsies her silk, black, and blue dress, then yanks on a translucent chain, and an elvish woman in navy cloak falls to the ground, bound in see-through shackles and gagged with a red ascot.

A third voice calls from the south.

Personally, I come for the comedy,

but I stay for the tragedy.

You turn to see a green-eyed, skinless figure take to the stage and quickly kick the alchemist to his knees.

Eddie grips the man's neck with a clawed hand, his jagged smile never fading.

Now everyone take a seat and let's enjoy the grand finale.

I appear next to him and say something funny too.

And I start clapping and I say, ha ha ha, you got, you, you're right where we wanted you to be.

Right, gang?

Wait, this, this was all in the theater.

Does that mean this has all been a fun little prank on us the whole time?

Like a whole show.

Where are the cameras, the hidden cameras?

Come on out, Carol.

I know you're lying.

Oh, my God.

Guys, right.

That was a good one, honey.

Hugo's eyes glow red, and he glares fixedly at the alchemist.

The alchemist's body goes rigid, his eyes glow red, and he responds tonelessly.

Teaskuol.

Eddie holds up two bloodied arms ripped from their sockets.

Those other sheath folks were surprisingly willing to give us a hand with the other ingredients we needed.

So how's about you deliver the last two ingredients and everyone walks away with their limbs attached?

Quick, chip down the liquid.

The last time you had an encounter, that liquid lock widened.

So, it's an entire like, I get rid of the liquid, and there's this entire

and he's like, dang it, I got it.

Ah, give me a second.

It's gonna take me three minutes to walk over there, get it, three minutes to walk back.

Yeah, he just doesn't, really doesn't want to.

Well, so what are you gonna do with the lockwood?

I put it in the bum bag of holding, yeah.

And then I tell the other guys, it's like, if you guys want to give me your stuff, I can hold on to it too.

Actually, no, we should probably keep it separate.

I like how we're having this discussion as they're like trying to kill us.

Hey, guys, over there.

Time out.

Time out.

If you guys want to give me your stuff, I can hold on to it for you or give it to me.

Give it to me.

Oh, yeah.

Give it to me.

Sit down.

I trust Matid with my life, so we should just give them.

I Astro Leap.

Ooh.

We give you the or

before you do that.

You want my water?

Oh, I guess seriously.

Okay, here you go.

I gave some of the Wolf Spain already.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Why did you do that?

Because y'all wanted to do it.

No, we didn't.

Yeah, we all said don't give it to them.

And then he gave it to them.

We said, whatever you do, don't give it to them.

They are gaslighting Chris right now.

No, no, you can listen to the episode.

Chris was just looking around, so confused.

Like, is that what happened?

We're teammates in this one, okay?

Yeah, that should be giving you all this stuff.

Yeah, yeah, I take the ore and the Lockwood and Astro Leap.

Okay.

I'm safe now, too, so have fun with the boss fight.

Yeah.

Eddie would probably just let out a big sigh and roll his eyes.

Everyone, go ahead and roll initiative.

Oh, it's one of those days.

Okay.

16.

There's like an army of people I could gather in Astralia, right?

There's like, it's like a, I can make like a whole like the Lord of the Rings, Return of the King entrance.

Yeah.

That's a 19 for Elga.

I'll roll too.

But they lost against the ostriches, though.

That's a 20 for Barney.

22.

Nice.

Wasn't it Emus?

Was it Emus?

I think it was Emus.

There are some NPCs as well.

I'm going to place them all.

Give me a moment.

Boom.

Ah, yes.

Agents of Sheath to me.

Well, they're all dead bodies.

Yeah, you got a couple arms.

Perfect.

Also, I keep failing to mention this.

I have this thing called Pinch of Poison.

Pinch of Poison.

Basically,

I gained this poisoner ability.

During short rests, I can create a single use injury touch ingested or inhaled poison and it has like some stuff that I can enable like put on people.

Yeah.

Is it okay to retroactively say that I that I've done that because I keep failing to mention it.

Sure, why not?

What were you thinking?

I'll just have a like a touch.

You got the touch.

The feel.

Oh, I was going the touch, the feel of cotton.

Or injury, injury.

That soundtrack rocks.

Yeah.

With the Transformers moving.

Yeah, it is.

I just re-watched it and I was like, why why is this going so hard?

Lion does a really good cover there, Team Song.

They also play that song like seven times in the movie.

As they should.

Okay, the top of the order is Hugo.

Of course, it is.

Okay, I've got to make a decision here, so I'm going to roll and that will set my decision.

Hugo makes a B-line for Barney and Elga.

Come at me, fake papa.

You're not my real dad.

It's gonna be dad versus dad.

Okay.

He looks at you, Elga, and he says.

You wouldn't hurt your father, would you?

I definitely wouldn't hurt my father, which is why I'm not gonna hurt Barney.

No!

Make a wisdom saving throw.

Oh, it's like a curse, like a spell.

She passed.

Barbara's wincing from the pain of that role.

Yeah, you're you know what?

Hugo is right.

You wouldn't do anything to hurt him.

In fact, you think you should protect him from all of these people who are trying to hurt him.

What if before he did that?

I'm just kidding.

Well, hold on.

Let me double check something on your character sheet to be safe.

He says that, but you actually have advantage on that saving throw, Eligo.

So make that wisdom save one more time.

Do I know why?

It's a type of charm, and you have Fey Ancestry, which gives you advantage on checks against that.

I'm being charmed, right?

13 is the new role.

You might still fail that.

Double checking.

Yeah, that's still a failure.

Okay.

You think there is a lot to that, and you should

maybe listen to what he has to say.

I will protect my father.

And

in your mind, you hear him say, attack that person next to you.

Is there only one person next to you?

Yeah, it's Barney who's next to you.

And he continues to close the distance.

Does anyone else know this is happening to me?

I mean, we probably hear him, or they probably hear him.

Yeah, I detect that you are creepier than usual.

Right, they would hear the first first part where he says that you wouldn't hurt your father, but then they don't hear, like, telepathically, he tells you to attack Barney.

Okay.

But they might be able to tell I'm getting charmed in some way.

They might be able to, yeah.

So Hugo would close the distance and try to attack Barney.

Okay.

Let's see here.

I'm going to make a roll.

This is plus nine.

You'd hit AC24.

That's going to hit.

Even with your new armor that you have on?

Yeah.

Okay.

Darn.

That does 14 points of piercing damage.

Okay.

And you must make a charisma saving throw.

Why are you so low on health?

Because I got eaten by a tree or something.

I don't remember.

Oh.

Like a lightning bolt or something like that.

Oh, yeah, you rushed through it.

I like that you didn't learn anything from it.

It could potentially happen again.

25.

Nice.

That's him doing splits in the air.

After he attacks you, he gets in real close and whispers in your ear, The little ones out to get you.

But you kind of shake it off.

You know that he's just trying to mess with your mind.

Like Taylor Swift says.

Okay.

The little one's out to get you.

Yeah, then I'll say the two of you, the other two of you, oh, and Matit's gone.

So, Chip, you make me a Christmas saving throw.

Okay.

He's so charismatic.

You've got Riz.

18.

Oh, okay.

In your mind, you feel like you can hear hear Hugo talking to you, telling you to move away and to run away, but you shake it off.

Okay.

In my mind, I tell him to shut up.

And you stand your ground.

Yeah.

That's it for Hugo.

Then it's Eddie's turn.

Tank, they rolled high.

Eddie closes the distance and runs up to the alchemist.

And he plucks five petals from a blue flower on stage, and the stuff grows taller by 50 feet.

Just like shoots up into the air.

Hey, look at the flower growing there.

Look at it.

It's because they're doing their little thingy.

What thingy?

I don't know.

It's the thing that we were supposed to stop it from doing.

Whatever the uh yeah, Cessnus thing is.

And he's going to.

Oh, that's a fun one.

Oh, we need the anti-sessanus.

Yeah.

They're doing the cessnis.

We're doing the cessnos.

Wait, the anti-estinis.

That's the potion that we're trying to.

Wait, why did he need the ingredients if we were gonna make an anti-sestiness potion?

Maybe we'll find out.

So that we can't make it, maybe?

Maybe.

Chip.

Hello.

Eddie looks at you and begins muttering something under his breath.

Why don't you make me a wisdom saving throw?

Okay.

Eight.

You know what?

Something about the atmosphere, something about the day, you just feel like dancing.

Feel like dancing.

Okay.

Dancing.

Yeah, you just begin doing a comic dance, just shuffling your feet, tapping them in place, and capering.

Okay.

There you go, chip.

That's a spirit.

Ah, guys, I'm feeling pretty good about this fight.

This is a weird time to choose to do the macarona, Chip.

So, a metagame-wise, you use all your movement to dance without actually leaving your space.

And you have disadvantage on dexterity saving throws and attack rolls.

Good start.

We are real set up for success here.

What if I have advantage inherently on deck saving throws because of my shoes?

Well, you made a whispers save.

So it doesn't cancel out.

It has no effect.

But your dancing is that much better.

Yeah.

You're really doing a great job.

Chips danced a lot in this campaign.

Through the chips.

What is that?

A 23 Skidoo?

Mateed.

You know what?

Australia's real nice this time of year.

Yeah.

You're right.

You're

there.

I made the smart choice.

You know, you don't have to go back.

I don't for a minute.

That's 10 rounds.

I was going to say, that's like, it might be the whole time.

You've got, you've got, uh, you've got a, you've got a lot of time.

That's the sole combat to figure this out okay and you roll at the end of your turn right to make see if you maintain in there or not i can leave but i can go back if i want can you leave stuff at the start of my next turn i go i can go back if i want or when the spell ends there'd be banishment i don't know if that would work well no but can you leave items in the realm yeah i can you have like a little like uh locker or anything like that over there

a little chest or a you know nest yeah i mean i can just leave it on the ground yeah give the shot are they able able to do that?

Yeah, I mean, why not?

Okay, I'll leave the ore and the lockwid on the ground.

Okay.

Which would stay in the Australian version of this.

Like, it's in that's like basically almost like a mirror dimension is what it seems like.

The upside down.

Yeah, but the one difference is it's not quite one-to-one.

Like, distance doesn't work the same between the planes.

Okay.

So what seems like it's a short distance in one might end up being a long distance in another.

Okay, but the way that the spell reads as far as how I come back is I come back 10 feet from where I could see from where I'd left.

Yes.

Okay.

I'm going to do something before I come back, if I can, really quick.

Just talk.

I just want just a talking action.

Okay.

I talk to Zigi and I tell Zhigi, I need you to go find Siren.

And I tell him the message, everything went wrong.

We're in deep doo-doo.

Get your golem butt to the amphitheater, Pronto.

Make me a wisdom check.

That's a good plan.

That's smart.

I might not be now that he's making me do this.

Gollum's a bad guy, but wisdom.

19.

Oh, nice.

You remember that Siren went out to help find ingredients as well?

But he's not here in the amphitheater?

Now that you think about it, you look around, you see some pieces, some metallic pieces in trees.

Oh, you didn't describe that.

He said we had two arms, but not a metal arm.

Well, that he wasn't carrying a metallic arm.

Maybe we can rebuild him.

Stronger.

Better.

Faster.

Better than he was before.

Could I tell Gigi to go find Jacques?

Sure, why not?

Okay, then he's there.

He's on the Australian plane.

All right, same message.

You scratch out.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

No, what you do is I just take Gigi and I shake him a little bit.

Like an actual extra.

Turned him upside down.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I go, go find Jacques and tell him we need your help.

Please come to the amphitheater in the Sesness.

Uh, no, uh,

final lock.

There it is.

In final lock, we could really use your help right now.

Bring reinforcements

And bring macarons.

Goodbye.

And I send Gigi off on a little errand.

Yeah, just make a persuasion check.

Why not?

On Gigi?

Oh, no.

On Jacques.

Correct.

You did this last episode, and I made the same...

17 plus 320.

Okay, that's good.

Dirty 20.

3020.

Nice.

Nice.

Excellent.

Okay, yeah.

Gigi jumps out of your arms and begins walking away.

Okay.

Hugo is now close to Chip or Barney.

Hugo, yeah, correct.

Okay, I could see him then, because I can see within 60 feet.

Correct.

So I want to...

Could I appear behind Hugo?

Sure.

Great.

I'm going to hit him with...

No, actually, I want to appear...

Would I be able to appear like 10 feet from a frame from him?

Yeah, why not?

Okay, you're so great.

Such a good

gracious god.

Because I want to hit him with the sling of the sandstorms.

Wow.

Chris just came in on the last note.

So I'm going to attack with that.

27.

Believe it or not, that's a hip.

So then first, I'm going to roll for damage on that, and then a few things get to happen.

That's a one.

So that's eight.

Eight.

What kind of damage is that?

Bludgeoning.

And then, since that hit him, the bullets of walloping.

Is that what they're called?

Called something like that.

Yeah, they are.

The bullets of woppling.

Creature hit by a bullet must see on a DC-10 strength-saving throw or be knocked prone.

Pretty sure he's going to make this.

He's got a plus 10, doesn't he?

But we'll, I mean, we'll see.

What's his modifier?

Just to for strength?

Yeah.

Oh, it's only plus three.

Okay.

Nice.

Nice.

So he just needs to roll a six or lower.

It's an eight.

That's an 11.

Okay.

That's fine, because since it was a monk weapon, I can spend a key point and do a stunning strike.

Nice.

Stone in.

And the check on that, it's very good.

As I flip through a million screens on here.

That's the way British people say stunning.

It's my favorite.

Has stolen in.

I can relate to flipping through a million screens.

Constitution saving throw.

Oh, it's my key thingy, which I didn't write down.

I think that's like

16 or 17.

Let me just roll and see.

Well, I got a six, which is probably

below whatever your number is.

Success!

He is stunned.

Stunning.

Good

lord.

Everyone.

Stunned in.

How far is Evana from me?

Evaina is a good distance away.

She was at another portion of the amphitheater.

Give me a moment.

I can look at the the map and tell exactly how far.

Barbara is cheering me on to beat up her sister.

Love you, Christopher.

About 80 feet, 80 to 90 feet, something like that.

Yeah, that's fine.

I'll go the full 65 flying feet that I can go.

And I'm gonna, yeah, I'm just gonna, I'm gonna use my

second attack to hit her with Sling of Sandstorms.

It's just the inventory item that keeps on giving.

19 plus 11 is 30.

Pretty sure that's a hit.

What kind of armor is this little girl?

That is a hit.

Well, she's in the submarine.

I think he got her.

He forgot to say that she'd gathered all of Siren's parts around her.

2 plus 7, 9 bludgeoning damage.

Bludgeoning, alright.

And roll that DC-10 Constitution saving throw.

No, she's a

strength.

Her strength is plus 2, so she needs an 8 or better.

They're under the water.

That's an 18.

She's a dirty 20.

Okay.

And then roll the stunning strike.

That was constitution.

Yeah.

Also a plus two.

It's a nine.

That's an 11.

That's going to be too low.

Yeah, which is low.

That's a failure.

So she's stunned as well.

Okay.

And then I'm going to use one more key point, since I'm on a roll, to use

the thing that makes me dodgy.

It is called

dodginess.

Who could have expected that to know what it's called?

Patient defense.

So I've now used the dodge action as my bonus action.

Okay, and that just gives you

a disadvantage on attacks against me.

Yep.

Black a rock.

And that will be my turn, and I will do a nice little pirouette and bow.

Right before Gus pulls out some sort of MacGuffin that kills me in one strike.

A ghost's nuclear bomb.

Yeah.

Suddenly,

Evina pulls out a proton pack.

Oh, that would suck.

You went to the game.

In unison, they go, Door.

Yeah.

Egon, that's Mateed.

After Mate is Barney, then after Barney is Elga.

That's right.

All right.

Evina's got a gun?

What?

Yeah,

that's the other thing.

Vena's got a gun.

I'm start by touching Elga and casting greater restoration.

I imbue a creature with positive energy to undo a debilitating effect.

One effect includes charmed.

Would that work?

And were you close enough to me that you could eat?

Yeah, because you're right next to each other.

They're right by each other.

Just want to make sure you didn't provoke an attack of opportunity.

Yeah.

I'm going to say yes.

One effect that charmed.

It wasn't charmed, but it was an effect that charmed.

And the other way it reads is one effect that charmed.

It doesn't say charm specifically, so yes.

Oh, so it wasn't charmed?

No, it was an effect that charmed, but it wasn't charmed.

Well, I'm glad I picked that one instead of my other thing I was going to do.

So yes, Elga, who you saw as

a mortal enemy of yours just a second ago, you now see as a kind, long-winded old man.

What?

And then...

So I'm not charged anymore?

Yeah, correct.

And then Hugo is right in front of me.

Yes.

Is his last name still Von Bra?

Yes, okay, as my bonus action, I want to cast spiritual weapons and uh I create a floating spectral weapon within range on a hit.

The target takes force damage equal to 1d8 plus my spell casting modifier.

Okay, so I'm gonna cast that and make it attack him

from behind.

Are you what kind of what form is the weapon taking?

It's taking hmm.

What is your dad not like?

Apparently, me.

Oh,

uh,

and probably you.

Can I make it take the form of like an Elga and me like

a statue that he just womps?

Could it just be Barney and Elga playing catch in a field?

Sure, why not?

And then it womps him with it.

Yeah, it's like bludgeoning.

Yeah.

No!

That's a 26.

That is.

A vision of Elga at her wedding with father-daughter dance with Barney.

So that did six damage.

And then, is he...

Wait, did you say he was stunned?

He's stunned, so you have advantage on attacks.

Can I just roll again just to see if I get like a crit?

Sure, why not?

And that was a 25.

Okay,

still not a critical, but still a hit regardless.

And he's stunned, so we could walk away.

Where's Eddie in relation to us?

Eddie is on that stump, which grew up 50 feet into the air.

Right, where the alchemist is.

How far away is that stump?

From where you were, the base of the stump is probably only like 25 feet away.

He's the one who's like got all the stuff and is like doing the thing.

Eddie, right?

The guy with the stuff doing the thing, yeah, right?

I mean,

I don't know.

Why don't you?

I can fly.

Okay, yeah.

And I've also got Dodge.

All right, then I'll stay here and just stomp around because he's not stunned.

And that's it.

That's my turn.

All right.

Elga, you're up after Elga is Evana, then Chip.

And I'm no longer charmed to want to attack Barney Cross.

Correct.

Okay.

I'm going to cast Hunter's Mark on Hugo.

Yeah.

You are not my enemy.

And

I'm going to take a swipe at him.

Do it.

Actually, could I equip something?

Or is that like a bonus action?

Sure, why not?

Go for it.

I'm going to equip my Metal of the Horizon back.

Something I got a while ago.

Basically, when you would be hit by an attack, you could use your reaction to increase your AC by five

until the start of my next turn.

So I'm just like equipping this to increase my AC by five.

So you have it on.

It's a reaction.

You just have to let me know when you get hit.

Yes.

Just tell me if you want to use the ability, and then for that one hit, it would increase your AC by five.

Right, which means it could potentially not hit me.

Correct.

Okay, cool.

So you have it on.

You just have to let me know when you want to use that reaction.

Okay, cool.

And then I'm going to take a swipe at Hugo with my great acts of gaining.

Okay.

Oh my God.

I'm going to use my inspiration die.

You have advantage also.

You do have advantage.

Oh, he's stunned.

Hold that dissident.

Stunning.

So I'm going to hold on to my inspiration die there.

Oh, my God.

No, I'm going to use my inspiration die.

I rolled a one and then a two.

Yikes.

It's getting better.

That's three.

Come on.

Come on, three.

Oh, thank gosh.

30.

Woo!

I'm missing that hit.

30?

Yeah.

I have a plus 11 on the back.

I shoot at 3.

All right.

And then because he has Hunter's mark on him, that is a 17 points of damage

plus

an extra 1d6

when I hit, right?

Yes.

Okay, and I also have advantage on any wisdom perception or wisdom survival check I make to find it.

To find it.

Yeah.

Okay.

So that's an extra 1d6, which is another four points.

So that would be 21 points.

Ouch.

Backjack.

And then I'm going to do it again.

Yeah.

Hugo?

I call you by your first name.

That's a 20.

I don't know if that'll let it.

That does hit.

Okay, cool.

I whispered to Elka.

Gotta, you know.

You know.

Hugo.

And that does 18 plus a D6.

Another three.

So another 21 points of damage.

Thank you.

So that's 42 total on Hugo.

Yep.

And then could I yell out to my team members?

Yeah, I'll do it.

If anybody has a spell that's like silence or anything, want to cast it on this fake dad over here?

So he cannot do a little habitoo hubado hocus pocus on us anymore?

Ah, the habitoo abadoo.

Ah, yeah.

No, none of that huey-balooey.

Yeah, I was like, what did Blaine say?

And that's my turn.

Good turn.

That's great.

That's a really good turn.

Okay.

So then it's Avaina's turn.

She's stunned.

Oh, yeah, she is stunned.

What does that mean exactly?

She can't move?

Yeah.

I think she also can't talk clearly.

So any verbal components?

Habadoo Habadu.

Sun Creature is incapacitated, can't move, can speak only falteringly, automatically fails strength and dexterity, saving throws, attack rolls against it, have advantage, and can't take actions or reactions.

Cool.

Cool.

That's why I do it.

It's maybe my best superpower.

Let me look at her character sheet here.

Evana.

So what can she do?

Does it involve talking or moving?

She does have stuff she could do.

Farting doesn't count.

So are you still close to Evana?

I am.

If you said she was 80, I'm about 15 feet away.

Okay.

You see her, you know, she can't really move.

She is stunned, but her eyes like turn and look at you and she kind of smiles.

You see like what you think might be a little bit of a smile curl on the outer edges of her lips.

I smile back and I mouth a potty word.

Ooh, what is it?

But we can't say it, can we?

We can't say it.

Toilet paper.

Yeah.

And as she's locked eyes and looking at you, three other versions of her pop out surrounding her.

Now there are four Ravenas standing there.

But which one is the one that's laying on the ground stunned?

The other ones are running around and the one in the middle's eyes are turning around.

Yeah, that'd be really easy to tell which one's the real one.

They're all frozen in place at the moment.

Okay.

That's all she can do at the moment.

Let me write that down.

Just that.

You'll never guess.

Look at that.

She's frozen in place.

Yeah.

Chip, you are a spawn 2T posing elephant

What can I do?

You can dance.

What kind of dance do you want to do?

I was going to say.

You can dance if you want to.

You can leave your friends behind.

Oh, maybe you should do that.

Because your friends don't dance.

Can I do a roll to see if I can overcome that charm or whatever?

Power music?

No.

I guess they don't dance, and they're no friends in mind.

Yeah, as an action, you can make a wisdom saving throw to regain control of yourself.

Okay, I'll do that.

We can dance.

We can dance.

Well, I mean, because alternatively, it's like I'm just going to have to take advantage of the stuff.

Is there a way that you could fight dance?

Capioeira?

Capybera?

Did you think Capybera?

Capioeira.

He said Capybera.

Capibera.

Okay, so

I have disadvantage on attack rolls against anybody or specifically Eddie.

Anybody.

She.

And you also can't move because all your movements are taken up by dancing.

You know what?

This is fine.

This is fine.

He's he's he's uh yeah, no, I'm gonna dance.

I'm gonna dance.

I'm going to

first I'm gonna while I'm doing my little dance I'm gonna dance my uh it's a uh river dance and I'm gonna take

the pinch of poison thing that that I have and rub it on an arrow from my crossbow of coolness.

And then I'm going to go.

Are you going to hit me with an arrow?

Yeah, I'm going to slide to the left.

Slide to the right.

And I'm going to shoot.

Doesn't sound like river dance.

Crossbow.

Crossbow.

So I'm going to shoot Eddie with it.

I think you said that was a disadvantage, right?

Yes.

I'm trying to think if you would be able to see him to even hit him.

Because he's 50 feet up in the air on top of the stump.

Oh, you tell me?

You were.

Where are you?

Oh, you were over here.

The stump went up.

How far is that?

The stump went up.

How is it that the hypotenuse comes into play so often here?

It really does.

50, 20 stands for kids.

Is it A square plus B square?

Eddie's at an angle about 54 feet away from you diagonally, but you're having to look up.

You're that far away.

Sure, we'll say he's by the edge and you're able to take a shot.

Why not?

Okay.

And that's disadvantage.

And 54 feet is within range for a crossbow, right?

Well, it says 30 foot/slash 120, so is that 120 disadvantage?

Right, so normally, normal range for that is 30 feet.

Then you can fire up to 120, but then that is at disadvantage.

And you're already at disadvantage.

So it'd be double disadvantage.

Okay, that's great.

I love this.

Perfect.

All right, so I'm going to shoot.

I'm going to roll three times, right?

Sure, why not?

I don't think double disadvantage is.

No, it doesn't exist.

He's just a disadvantage.

No, no, no, it's fine.

I can do double disadvantage if you want to.

I think it should be four dice, but we'll figure it out.

25.

Do you want to roll three dice?

Double, triple, double disadvantage?

Three dice?

How about a hold up?

Yeah, let's do three.

Why not?

Okay.

Do you want to go nuts?

Let's go nuts.

Let's go nuts.

A 16, that's a 25, and that's a 25.

Woo!

But I also have lucky, which then turns this into super duper advantage.

I'm gonna read this for the room because every time I brought out lucky, people are like, that doesn't make any sense.

Hold your horsies.

You have three luck points per long rest.

Whenever you make an attack, roll, ability check, or saving throw, or when an attack roll is made against you, you can spend one to roll an additional d20, and you choose which die to use.

Yeah.

Super duper advantage.

You can choose to spend luck points after you roll a die, but the outcome is determined.

So then I'm going to roll another.

I just exited out.

Sorry.

My hands are shaking.

I'm thrilled.

Who's your luck guy?

So that's a 16.

So my highest was a 25.

So you're going to pick the 25?

Yes.

Okay.

The 25.

Believe it or not, that is.

Okay, great.

I am also

going to use...

My ranged rhyme!

Upon firing a crossbow at an enemy, hit or miss, as a bonus action, you can expend a charge to cause the bolt to explode with icy shards, each creature within 10 feet.

The target must make a DC-15 dexterity saving throw or take 46 cold damage.

Who are you shooting?

This is Zeddy.

Okay.

So I'm going to get an additional 46 cold damage.

Uh-huh.

That's right.

That's right, Gus.

So I'm going to roll for the piercing damage.

You're going to roll your piercing damage first.

So that's a seven.

DC-15 dexterity saving throw.

Okay.

Or take 46 cold damage.

So plus five.

Let me roll here.

God.

Hey, he's at disadvantage, though, because he's stunned.

Stunning.

He's not stunned.

No, bad, he's not.

You attacked the one person I didn't stun.

So he rolled a 16, which means he saved.

No, he doesn't.

Roll it again.

Oh, you're going to burn your luckiness quickly.

Oh, God.

Every time.

Every time he has three.

That's an 11, which is plus five, 16.

No, but you get to pick.

So it's a 16 or a 21.

Oh, oh.

Don't burn it.

You big, big, dumb, beautiful, lovely, but dumb man.

Hey play and do whatever you you want.

Don't do it.

You play you.

It's your turn.

Do it.

Do it.

He's too chicken.

He'd never do it.

Do it again!

I like how Gum Gum showed up.

Same person in that one.

I can't wait for him to.

So, hold on.

Now we're getting a clarification on lucky here.

Oh, can you burn?

We've done lucky multiple times before.

Yeah, I feel like we always do it wrong.

We should keep doing it wrong then.

Okay, so whenever you make an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw, you can spend one to roll an additional d20 and you choose which die to use.

You can choose to spend luck points after you roll.

So it's when you make an attack roll.

Or when an attack roll is made against you.

Yeah, or when an attack is made against you.

Which Eddie's not doing anything.

Correct.

Yeah, and they didn't attack you.

Correct.

This is him doing a save.

Correct.

So you didn't have to use that lucky, so you still have that lucky.

I have both my lucky.

Yes.

Aww.

But I wanted it to explode.

I think Micah stepped in to save you there.

But does it do half damage?

I don't know.

It doesn't clear.

It doesn't say.

Okay.

This is homebrewed, so it doesn't say if it does or does not do half damage.

I think it does half damage, though.

Normally it is half.

That's how it was with her knife.

So half of 17.

It's eight.

As well as the ice knife spell does that as well.

Plus, if you recall, I lubricated my arrow with a bench of poison.

So I'm going to do an additional 2d6 plus 4 damage.

Poisoning damage.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Why are you picking it?

Yeah.

Just making sure I can do it.

Yeah.

So that's 12 points of damage.

From the poison.

From the poison.

Poison.

That's too bad you didn't hide and do this.

Well, he couldn't.

He was dancing.

Yeah, Blaine.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So how's that?

How's that?

Pretty good.

I need to roll a dexterity saving throw for the alchemist.

Why?

Because he's right next to Eddie.

Remember?

That's okay.

It's just the Alchemist.

Yeah, yeah.

Just the one that's going to be the same.

The Alchemist rolled an 18.

Honestly, if the Alchemist got killed when they need the Alchemist,

that is bad for all of us equally.

I mean,

that's an eight for minus eight hit points for the alchemist because he made the safe.

He'll be fine.

He'll be fine.

I'm gonna crissy a little bit here.

Would like because I use lucky, does that technically mean I have advantage so that I could proc sneak attack?

I mean, it's just

no, no, no, that is not advantage.

But, oh, oh, oh, but the alchemist is within range of him, so then wouldn't I proc the sneak attack?

But he's not threatening, okay.

Jesus, okay, Um.

Fine.

And then now that I realized it, I thought that this was going to go so much better.

You did fine.

No, I didn't.

The cross.

You did good considering you're dancing.

Yeah, you can't move.

And you have a disadvantage.

And because I use.

A quadruple disadvantage.

I use a bonus action, so I can't disengage or any of that stuff.

So that's basically it.

You're dancing.

That's basically it.

Do you want to do a little dance right now?

That's my turn.

Okay, it's Sadate's turn.

What's What's she gonna do?

Continue to be prisoner.

Oh, I know what she'll do.

She'll yell at Chip.

Be careful.

We need the alchemist alive.

Yeah, yeah.

Which is typical sticky dragon where an NPC has to tell Blaine to care about another NPC.

I guess she'll make a check.

Let's just roll a D20.

With her translucent shackles.

She rolled a 75.

Can she with those on?

Yeah, she's trying to get out, but she's not having much.

Does she have a cool ability?

Does it require her to move like her stupid little daughter?

Yeah, unfortunately not.

You've got the bad side of the family.

The other side of the family.

You don't have to tell me about that.

I think I'm a little better.

Yeah, she can't do anything.

Okay, that is it for Sedante.

It's the alchemist who is...

He's like in a trance still, right?

Yeah, he is being controlled.

Maybe I woke him up, though, with the cult.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Send I

break it.

Yeah, that was my intent.

I was going to ask if he's being charmed or something like that and we hurt Hugo.

Does that break anything?

Oh, yeah, his concentration.

Plus the cold.

You could make an Arcana check if you want.

Me?

Yeah.

Okay.

Could we?

I'm going to let Barbara because,

yeah, she's putting it together.

So 14?

You don't think that would necessarily have a direct concentration?

You're saying there's a check.

It might not be a concentration spell.

It might just be like he said something and it makes makes him do something you winter soldiered him yeah so what i'm hearing is we should in fact kill the alchemist but you need him

but so do they i think there's a lot of people we should prioritize killing first or at least hurting first like eggie

and every other villain in this room no we can rehabilitate them i hit your sister okay thank you

i did a hit apologize for hitting your sister

not my sister

won't get mad at me for hitting sister i think uh at that Sadate shouts out to you, Chip.

I always heard Carol loved your dancing.

It's what's for Carol!

Why is she trying to make it?

You can re-roll that wisdom save.

Oh, okay.

Well, I'm certainly going to make it now.

By the strength of Carol, I roll.

You're saying that is probably going to make it.

Oh, 14.

Oh, that might do it.

Please make it.

It might not.

Let's see.

It's close.

Please.

Yeah, you're able to like shake it off and get your wits about you and get your feet back under you.

Yay!

Final move.

What's your final dance move?

How do you end the dance?

Like one of those ta-da!

My arms out.

Do you do any jazz hands?

A little jazz hands.

Yeah, a little jazz hands.

And then my tail is also jazz handing.

All right, it's the alchemist turn who continues his work.

And then we go back to the top to Hugo.

Oh, great.

He's stunned.

When does that end?

Does that end on your turn?

It's my turn.

Okay.

It's Hugo, then Eddie, then Mate.

Hugo can't move.

However, at that point, violent tremors begin shaking the entire amphitheater, and large branches crack off from the canopy above, falling into the amphitheater.

It's been like a theme with a lot of earthquakey stuff.

Yeah, except the vampspire and here again.

Yeah, something's going on.

Everyone make dexterity safety throws.

Nat 20 with plus a bunch.

Oh, you made it.

You're good.

19 for Elbe.

A seven.

You sounded so proud.

I know.

I was like, how can I sell this?

I rolled.

It's the lucky seven.

I rolled an 11, but I believe I get to do it again because of the sneakers.

Cool on this little dice when you're rolling that 20.

It's a picture of the Grim Reaper.

There is a thing that I have.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

While you're doing that, I'm going to roll my saves as well.

Yeah, that's a sound I want to hear.

That's a good sound.

No, it's not.

Yeah, it is.

How did I fail every single one?

yay how did i roll five g20s and fail every single roll that one might not be hold on because i wished

because we prayed to them all

power of dance well that's a failure evasion when you're subjected to an effect that allows you to make a deck saving throw to take only half damage you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw and only half if you fail so he failed so you failed so you still take half damage yeah yeah and i take i have that too so if there's half damage for succeeding i don't take any yep uh there is.

I rolled an 8, 11, 2, 4, and 15.

Heck yeah.

Garbage.

Let me see if I can.

I'm trying.

Nope.

Can't cry for you.

Sorry.

All right.

Let me roll some damage.

The damage is lots.

11 points of bludgeoning damage.

If you succeed, you take five.

Okay.

So we all take five.

I take none.

Sorry.

I saw that too.

I saw that.

Tony just walked by in like a top hat.

If no one else had seen that, I think I was going crazy.

Okay, are we all good on that?

Yeah.

Okay.

It is still Hugo's turn, who is stunned.

Can he do anything without

moving?

He can only speak falteringly, which makes this even more difficult.

Oh.

Hmm.

I don't think so.

Hey, Cuss, you have to do this turn with a faltering voice.

Go ahead, continue.

There it is.

No, stop doing a Chris impression.

Take an inspiration now.

Can I get one?

Just have to make fun of Chris?

Yeah, we just gotta bully Chris so we get inspiration now.

Chris went, can I get one?

I'm in the butt of the joke right now.

Yeah, technically part of the joke.

No, he can't do anything.

All right.

Hugo stands there.

Eddie, you cannot...

Well, I guess Chip can partially see him.

Eddie,

he is going to...

So many options.

Is it Eddie's turn?

Yeah.

Okay.

Ooh, this is is a fun one.

I wonder who he's going to target.

Maybe the person who attacked him did damage to him.

Yeah, that seems hard.

Yeah, Eddie looks down at you, Chip, and a beam of crackling blue energy lances out from him towards you.

It forms a sustained arc of lightning between the two of you.

And he has to make a attack.

While you're doing that, I have the cloak of displacement.

While you wear this cloak, it projects an illusion that makes you appear to be standing in a place near your actual location, causing any creature to have disadvantage disadvantage on attack rolls against you.

Disadvantage.

Lucky for you.

What is your AC?

Hmm.

13.

Really?

Yeah?

It's 13.

Has it always been 13?

Yeah,

I'm not great.

Yeah, what can I say?

Do I have like, I wonder if I have armor, like, unequipped or something?

That doesn't seem right, because that just seems like your dexterity bonus.

I mean, if you want to give me higher AC, I'll take it.

Yeah, you've got your leather armor, which is 11, your dexterity bonus, which is 2.

That's 13.

Wow, that's it.

Okay, yeah, because that hits then.

Okay, yeah, it hits.

Do a lucky.

Do it again.

Oh, yeah, you can use a lucky on this, right?

Yes, because you're attacking me.

My voice didn't crack.

Your voice cracked.

A one.

Ah,

which one do you want to pick?

Hmm.

So he critical fails.

He does.

Alright, so the

punish him.

The lightning comes out, but it fails to hit you.

It hits that displaced version of you that was near you instead of actually hitting you.

And lightning flashes between the two spots.

Eddie!

Eddie!

Hey Eddie!

You missed!

Okay.

His green eyes focus and just look at you with pure hate.

I think our rogue is doing the exact opposite of what the rogue should be doing.

And then I start dancing.

I forget that ship is a rogue.

Yeah, it's easy to forget chips a road

As he screams and dances in the middle of a battle.

I also wear my headphones one ear off, one ear on.

Yeah.

I think you were louder in the one that I don't have the headphones on because I could actually hear you like full volume here versus the microphone, which I think is like leveled out properly.

Yeah.

So I was like, oh, it's quieter if I put this on.

Listeners at home love to hear it.

All right.

Mateed, then Barney, then Elka.

So Eddie is on a

stump that has grown in height.

Correct.

It's now 50 feet tall.

And that happened when he pulled these petals off of a flower.

Correct.

It was a blue flower.

It's not the wolf span, though, is it?

No.

I feel

like we should be doing something to attempt to stop what he's doing.

What if?

Is there a ceiling in this place?

No, it's open air.

Aw, dang it.

I was going to say keep pulling flowers until he squishes into the ceiling.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I like the energy.

I like the spitballing, brainstorming.

Oh,

I have a question.

We're in the amphitheater.

Yes.

Are we close to the lock?

I mean, relatively, yes, but not like you could go there in one round and back or anything like that.

You know, it's a couple hundred feet away.

Okay.

So no, never mind.

It took a couple minutes of walking from the lock with the lock to get back.

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Pause to listen.

Is that the sound of Jacques coming to my aid?

Oh.

Nope, it's not because that's the same thing.

Just listening.

Yeah.

You just hear bells off in the distance.

But is Gigi back?

How far am I from Eddie if I am 15 feet from Evena?

So you're still relatively close to the ground.

You know, Evana was in the stands, which are, you know, stadium seating.

So it is a little elevated.

It's probably, let's say, 20 feet up.

So it's another 30 feet up and then that's...

Oh, you weren't all the way to Evana.

That's 30 feet up and then about 15 feet south from you to get to where Eddie is.

30 up.

15 south.

15 south.

I can make that in one movement.

Because I have 60 feet.

You absolutely Okay.

Stand up.

Stand on.

Yeah, yeah.

Could I?

I want to first hit Evan again.

The Sling of the Sandstorms.

24.

Roll a D4 on a one.

You hit the correct one.

Oh, really?

Yeah, there's four of them.

Yeah, remember, she's got the little.

But wasn't one of them stunned?

They all look stunned.

No, I think they're all staying in place.

She's stunned until the end of my turn.

Right.

Yeah, so she's still stunned.

Right.

So I have advantage on the attack.

And so if you're telling me I have...

So it's whether or not to make the attack, and then the D4 determines whether or not you attacked the correct one.

Unless you had an area attack.

Could I do a check to see if I can know which one's the right one then?

I thought this was a thing like Blaine's thing where it just gives him advantage.

No, it's yeah, it's a little hard because like you essentially you pick one to attack and then make the attack.

So it's different than his evasion

or his displacement.

Correct.

Like with his, it just hides him and makes him appear to be a little over from where he is.

This one makes multiple copies.

So it's like there are essentially four evenas standing in front of you.

What did I roll, Blade?

A one.

I rolled one.

You hit the correct one.

Okay, cool.

Then I will roll for damage, which is the D4.

What was the process of that like?

Were you just like,

you know what?

Yeah, that's what it was.

That's two plus seven, nine bludgeoning damage.

Roll me that save.

The strength, strength save, is the walloping bullets.

10.

It's a DC 10.

Yeah.

Strength is plus 2.

Need an 8 or better.

11.

That's a 13.

Okay.

I'm going to make this a stunning strike again.

Take those stunning strikes.

It's quieter every time.

And I found it.

It's DC 16.

Con.

Con

is plus 2.

I need a 14 or better.

Do what?

Oh, 13.

So close.

You're stunned again.

Wap, whap, wow.

Are the other three apparitions of Evana still there?

Yes.

They are.

But we know which one is real.

But we know which one is the real one.

Yeah.

Mafia does.

I mean, we can't tell who stunned or not, right?

They're all stunned.

I hit her.

And so she has an extra bruise on her head.

The one with a black eye.

Two black eyes.

They all have two black eyes now.

No.

Yep.

Okay, then I point that one out.

Hit that one.

Do I have anything I could do, like to throw like paint on her or something?

Do I have anything?

From a meta perspective, the duplicates always look like the original.

So like no matter what happens to the original, the duplicates will always look like the original.

Okay, okay, okay, okay, go, go, go.

They have to move.

We know where they're standing if they.

Sure, if she does it.

Yeah, because she can't move, so they all have to stay there.

So I point out the one that will be the one that is her till the end of my next turn.

So, question.

You attacked and did the stunning strike with the sling of the sandstorms?

Yes.

Yes,

so the one

problem

is sling of the sandstorm is a ranged weapon, but stunning strike requires you to hit with a melee weapon.

I thought it because we've been doing this that it doesn't say a monk weapon is stunning strike.

Stunning strike is when you hit with a melee weapon attack.

Yeah, I'm about to rebuttal the rules.

I'm going off of what we've been doing for a while,

which was that the sling of the sandstorms could proc stunning Strike.

Yeah, we've been doing that.

I don't know if we've been doing it right or wrong.

Maybe we'll let it slide, but I don't think that works.

How about since from this point on I won't do that?

From henceforth.

Yeah, but I think you have to hit them with some kind of melee weapon or a fist or whatever.

A talent.

Would my spear count?

Yes.

Yeah.

As long as you don't throw it.

As long as you use it as a melee in that range.

I'll make that note.

We'll forever remember this as the signing of the Treaty of Cessness.

Yeah.

The Cessness Accord.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay.

But she can be stunned for this one last time.

Thank you.

I'm going to go get Eddie then.

Woo!

Kill him.

Yeah.

Again.

For the fifth, sixth time.

I'm just going to take my Sling of Standard Storm and just smack him over the head with it.

Just kidding.

I'm going to hit him with my Spear Superior Baker.

Actually, oh, wait.

Yeah.

He's leaning in real close to this right now.

You know what?

This is not really going to do much, but this has like final boss battles, near final boss battle vibes, and so I want to use it to use a little item bonus action.

Depends on the item, but yeah, I'd say typically.

What if I wanted to crack an egg?

Sure, okay, I'm so confused.

Now's not the time.

Oh, god, no, this is great before I leave a vaina because I have a vendetta against this mean little girl.

You liked your vibe.

Um, I did until she just became a little punk.

Um,

I throw the battle goozling,

I crack an orange gooey egg and a battle-hardy goozling will ooze out.

I command the goozling to attack an enemy within range.

I do not like green eggs and ham.

I do not like the same I am.

Pretty great the mechanics of how this thing works.

It's just a nuisance.

It really doesn't do much damage.

But it's great because if it fails on the attack, it rolls a die per number of creatures in the area of effect and it will attack a new creature ad nauseum.

And it also has a little thing here that says throughout the duration, the goozling will honk deafeningly.

How does that sound?

I hate it.

Someone else in this building just heard that and is running.

A goose runs in.

And you call

it?

Yes, sir.

It has a bunch of things, like, it has a bunch of abilities, including like its attack is like a pseudo-beak.

It has a bubbling hiss.

It's a lot of stuff.

When I asked Gus how long this thing lasts, it just lives until it dies.

So this is now my little buddy until someone kills it.

What's his name?

Uh

Pierre.

Pierre.

I was gonna say Gustav.

Oh, that's good.

Yeah, so he's gonna just, I'm gonna leave a little present next to Vayna who's stunned.

Does Pierre like Pate?

He does.

He does.

Oh, yuck.

How dare you, Pierre?

He's a oozling.

Oh, right, right.

Yeah, he's not actually a goose.

Yeah, yeah.

And so, can I put him, his like initiative right after mine?

Sure, why not?

Okay, cool, cool, cool.

All right.

I go, Daddy loves you.

I have to go hit the the strange man with green banes.

And I fly up to Eddie and try to attack him with my spear.

Okay.

26.

That hits.

That's not criticized.

No.

That's a dirty 26.

Fear Spear Baker does.

1 D8.

7 plus 7.

14.

And that's

piercing damage.

And

give me that.

What's going on?

Shigadechwa.

55.

Let's go ahead and make that a stunning strike as well.

I'm sure he'll pass it.

I'm sure he's got like that's a

constitution.

Yeah.

And what's the DC 16?

16.

Yes!

Yes!

Yes!

Yes!

I rolled a one.

DD gods.

I will say, Eddie does have that ability where he can choose to succeed a failed saving throw.

Oh,

hit up, but

that's a pretty OP skill.

Yeah, um, he, uh, yeah, that's a one, but uh,

he makes it.

No, it succeeds.

I guess I gotta hit him again then.

Yeah, because it's only one reaction, probably.

Actually, can I ask that from a meta perspective?

How long, how many uses is a legendary resistance?

So he can do that three times a day, but it is a reaction to Blaines.

You know, it's not a reaction, a bonus action.

And my bonus action is flurry of blows.

Oh, you used a bonus action?

Oh, okay.

Thank you, Micah, for keeping track of it.

Okay.

Micah, what are you doing?

Then try not to make Matito pee.

No, no, no.

I need limitations.

As few as there are.

Then I think that's it.

Don't in.

Don't in.

Yeah, I'm good.

I like that crystal ass word.

Okay, and that's it for Matiti.

Oh, you're going to do the oozling?

Oh, yeah.

Almost forgot.

Everyone's just taking a turn.

turn.

I'm so glad I used this, and I'm terrible at using my inventory.

Where did I get this?

In the

Shrek, Scourge,

what was the place underneath the Vamp Smire?

The Dregs.

Dregs.

I think I got it there.

Okay.

You can move through a space as narrow as one inch wide.

That's why I'm rereading all this.

If a creature touches you or hits you with a melee attack, it takes asset damage.

Actions.

Pseudo-Beak.

Melee weapon attack.

Plus five.

17.

And this is on a Vayna, right?

Of course.

Okay, now that you rolled that, roll roll a D4 to see if you hit the correct one.

I know which one.

He doesn't, though.

He wasn't there.

No, I command him.

I'm commanding the oozling.

I think, let me double check their wording on your image.

I think you have to roll it every time.

Command the Goozling to attack an enemy within range.

So if it's not like his spell, and I know which one's the right one, then why do I still not know what the right one is?

The only time you don't have to make the check is if you have, if it has blind sight or true sight.

All of the times, every time there's an attack, regardless, you have to make the check.

Really?

Mm-hmm.

That's a bummer.

He's a bummer.

Cause it'll be our own mate.

Actually, this is kind of...

This is funny.

Watch this.

I rolled a four.

That's not funny at all.

So it goes to the wrong one, right?

So it attacks the wrong one, but...

Because the gooselink has this ability, it then keeps attacking.

So it attacks the wrong one, and that one actually blinks out of existence.

So now there are three Avenas.

Oh, there was...

She made three copies?

Oh, yeah, that's why you made me do it for.

It keeps attacking.

It keeps attacking?

The way that it works, if it fails on the attack, roll.

Is that a fail?

No, that's a success because it hit.

Okay, so it hit, blink that one out of existence.

Correct.

Okay, thank you.

Sorry, we're learning about this thing.

So the next time we would roll a d6 and then divide.

Correct.

Yeah.

Okay.

Oh, I should have read the second attack instead.

Oh, I should have done that.

I didn't know I had a second attack.

Has an AoE attack.

You even said earlier it had bubbling hiss.

Yeah, I didn't know that that was an AOE thing.

Oh.

Okay, that's fine.

We live in and we learn.

Yeah.

I know Pierre.

Okay.

And as a bonus action, I can move to another aggressive creature that I want to be aggressive against.

So I'm going to go against...

Can I just roll a dice and pick which one?

You can just say one of them.

You don't have to pick right now.

It goes to one of them.

Yeah.

I'm done.

Sorry.

That took forever.

Barney, you're up.

Then after Barney, Elega.

So...

She goes now unstunned?

Yeah, I guess you would unstun now at the end of Matid's turn because he was not re-stunned.

Yeah, only person stunned is...

Oh, no, Evaina and Eddie are stunned.

No.

No, Eddie's not.

Correct, it's just Evanna.

I have these silver metal chains and stuff.

Is there a way I could like tie him around him in a way that would like...

You can try.

We'd have to make like

an unarmed strike to touch him and then some kind of like either strength check or athletic check.

We'll just figure it out.

Like for a grapple, essentially.

Like a grapple.

Like grappling to time up.

Okay.

Okay.

I guess I'll try

that a shot.

Alright, so make an unarmed strike first of all to see if you're able to like grab him, get your hands on him.

18.

That's exactly what you need to be able to put your hands on him.

So then make an opposed strength roll with him.

Okay, your fathers are hugging.

Does it matter at all that I'm also using like silver on him?

Well, no, because this is you're trying to get him under control first before we even pull the chains out.

All right, opposed strength.

Thankfully, I got old man's strength.

18.

Ooh, that's pretty good.

My strength is plus three.

Roll bad.

Did you say roll bat?

Bat.

Bat?

Bat.

Eight.

Broccoli.

Yes.

Locally.

All right, yeah.

So you're able to grab him and kind of wrestle him to the ground and you pull out the chains.

You start trying to tie him up with them?

Tie him up, ideally, where I could like wrap it around both his like mouth and arms.

Does that make sense?

So it's like a chain going out of the hat.

Yeah, he's hog tying it.

Yeah.

I think hog tie is when you put like the four limbs together.

Yeah, you know.

It's just a funny middle I just got.

So you don't have to take a little.

And then I don't know if I, like, as part of that, like, use, I have a nail and a hammer, and I, and I just, like, bend a hammer so it, like, bends it the chains.

Bend a hammer so it bends the chains.

Bend a nail, like, take a nail and then hit it with a hammer so it bends the nail so it acts as kind of like a thing holding it together.

Does that make sense?

Yeah, I'm just trying to think if you have enough like actions for that kind of stuff, or like you have to hold him for the next turn for that.

What was the sight that my goozling needed to be able to know which one to hit?

True sight or blind sight?

It has blind sight.

It does?

It does.

Sorry, I'm learning about my goose as I go.

It's a news goose.

Senses, blind sight, 60 feet.

This is perplexing.

Gob smacked.

Where is that?

It's senses, yeah.

Blind sight, 60 feet.

Yeah.

Yeah, do you want to go back?

I just want to scroll damage.

Okay.

That's all I got to do.

And

I'm attacking the correct.

So the mirror image is still there then.

Yes.

But you are attacking just roll your damage for the correct event.

Yes.

And so it's not going to be a lot.

It's actually, it's 4d4.

That's a pretty good amount.

And then also some acid damage.

4, 3, 3,

4.

4.

1.

3.

3.

14.

14.

Plus.

2.

16 bludgeoning damage.

And then 5, plus, 2, 7, acid damage.

And these are all on the Avenus?

It's just on the real Avenue.

ouch you know i've never my parents didn't buy me a goozling when i was a little kid so i don't really know really a lot about them so i'm just learning as i go

it really really tells you like if you're gonna get a pet do the research first

okay yeah that's a good amount of damage why do you think i don't know

i hate that goozling honk and step back into the conversation i have with barney i'd say if you want to try to like bend a nail and do all that that's going to have to be like another action like you have him held with the chains for now but yeah i think now we're like that's a lot of stuff to do it at once okay then i guess

with the way I've tied him up, is it a thing where I'm confident that he can't get out of it at this point?

I mean, you feel like you have the upper hand for now.

Okay.

You think, you know, he's going to, of course, continue to try to fight, but I can't say because we're going to probably have to make another roll or something.

So he's like grappled then?

Yes, he is currently restrained.

Excellent.

Because of the silver, does that give it any sort of advantage?

I don't know.

That's what kept him in the coffin.

Yeah.

We should have just brought that coffin with us.

We should have grabbed it on the way out of the cut.

fire was that my action or a bonus action or action okay shoving a coffin into your uh it's your bag i'm holding

then for my bonus action you step on the nail i'm going to uh i guess how far away is eddie he's too far away i'll use my spiritual weapon and and bonk him with the statue of me and elga bonk hugo yeah okay because he is

well because you're talking about eddie and then he just says i'm gonna bonk him like i don't know who you're talking about And is he, would this have advantage since he's tied up?

Roll it, and then let's find out.

Okay.

In the theatrical adaptation of this campaign, there's actually a really good Hugo already out there that could play your dad.

Hugo weaving.

That's a good, creepy vampire dad.

I want to watch that.

Yeah, attack rolls against creature have advantage.

Has the statue changed to Barney helping Elga ride a bike?

That's 22 and 29.

That's a hit.

That's a six.

Okay.

Total damage of force damage.

And then that's the end of my turn.

I'll just stay there kind of holding the chains.

Okay.

Elga.

Okay, still have Hunter's mark on you.

Fake dad.

I see you.

Did they move away from me when Barney was doing all this?

Are they still

Kego and Barney?

Oh, no, they're still right by you.

Okay, cool.

Could I please use my bat hole axe?

Yes.

And can I hit him with my battle axe?

Okay.

That

who

is a nat 20.

Yay!

I'm a big fan that so far we've all been like mostly fighting our nemesis.

Like you and Barney are like fighting Bad Dad and Blaine went straight for Eddie and I went for a Vayna.

Wait, is it Vayna?

Yeah.

Yeah, he's declared it.

Yeah.

And that is a 23 points of damage.

Okay, let me double check that, make sure that it did the crit correctly.

It's 2d10 plus 7.

I just want to make sure you're getting all of the damage you should be getting out of this.

So what we're going to do is we're going to change one of those.

I'm going to change that second one from a nine to a ten.

So it's actually 24 points of damage.

And then plus another d6, because he is my hunter's mark.

So that's an extra five.

Nice.

So that would be 29.

Are you raging?

I am not.

Oh, oh.

Because she used the bonus action for hunter's mark at the start.

Yeah, I could have done it this turn.

I just forgot.

Full disclosure.

I was just too focused on

swinging a swinging.

Ironically.

Yeah.

Ironically, you're so angry you forgot to rage.

Well, it's also because I have a different bonus action in mind.

Oh, cool.

Nice.

And then I'm going to hit him again.

Okay.

Keep you in mind for my battle.

I'm going to watch the show.

Launch again.

I don't know if that'll hit.

That's a 16.

Oh, you have advantage because he's restrained.

Oh,

wonderful.

Another 16.

No, that does not hit.

Okay.

As a bonus action, I want to use my bat barrage.

So for this one, when you attack a creature, you could use a bonus action to speak a command word, and the battle axe transforms into a swarm of bats that attack the target for up to one minute.

When the swarm is killed, or if the target is killed, the swarm turns back into a battle axe and falls to the ground.

So the axe flies out of your hands, forms a swarm of bats, and surrounds Hugo and begins attacking him, fighting at him.

So roll a d20 and add four for that attack.

D20 coming in.

Five plus four, nine.

Nine.

Yeah, so they don't actually hit, but they're, you know, annoying him.

They're in his space, biting at him, flapping all around.

Okay.

You have the inspiration?

You're so funny.

I want to know.

I just, I used it all my time.

I mean, she did use it, yeah.

Yeah.

and that's my turn.

Okay.

Good turn.

Wee!

It's a vaina's turn.

Oh, I thought it was my turn.

She's stunned.

You're after Avaina.

Okay, I'll wait.

Okay, so there are

four Avainas.

I thought one got...

No, no, we ended up recognising that because the Goozling has a million abilities.

Never mind.

Oh, honk honk.

This will be fun.

Oh, no.

And Mateed, you left and you're up at the top, right?

Yeah.

By the way, yeah, big thank you to the community for that goozling.

That's a good item.

Yeah, thank you, guys.

Yes.

Gus loves it.

Came up with that in Discord.

Oh, I was there for the making of this.

Yeah.

I forgot.

It's like I made it just for you, Gus.

Just for you.

Goose.

Goose.

Okay.

You can't really see because you, you know, you flew away from her.

But Ivana darts her eyes and begins looking at you, Mateed.

Make a wisdom saving throw.

What is she trying to do?

Yeah, I'll tell you in a second.

Okay.

We're just no more men.

Why was that so funny?

That game was like, it doesn't make any sense.

What is that?

It's a puppet talking to a woman.

He's just like, get delivered.

We were just men?

14.

You feel your limbs beginning to lock up a bit.

You feel like someone's using a whole person on you.

Uh-oh.

What effect does that do?

Paralyzed.

Is Mateed humanoid?

Yes, I double-checked it.

Eric Cochranes are bird-like humanoids.

Even though they're a ghost?

Correct.

Okay.

Yeah, I don't think there's anything I can do to counter that.

I'm not immune to paralyzing.

The stunners are now the stunned.

Stunners.

So you freeze up until at the end of your turn, you can make another wisdom saving throw.

You're incapacitated, can't move or speak.

You fail strength and dexterity saving throws.

Attacks against you have advantage.

Any attack that hits the creature is a critical hit if the attacker is within five feet.

It's kind of like stunned.

Very similar.

I guess that takes away the cold arrow I was going to launch in your direction.

I'll hold off on.

Is there anything else the Vena can do?

No.

Chip, you're up.

I know he's like super high up and all that stuff.

How high would I be able to reach him in a single turn if I climbed up that thing?

Do you be able to get to the top of the stump in one turn?

Yeah.

It's a 50-foot climb.

I don't think you could get up there even with a double move.

Okay.

I can still see Eddie though, right?

Yeah, you still see.

Okay.

Then I'm going to shoot with crossbow of coolness again.

That's a...

Oh my god, it's a net 20.

28 oh yeah believe it or not that's a hit okay i'm gonna roll that damage believe it or not straight to jail uh 15 believe it or not

so uh it already one of the rolls was the six that's the one i normally do that second one so that is correct damage 15 points from the crossbow and also mateed is within five feet of eddie yeah yes they they okay so then i also use sneak attack But Mate is not threatening because Matida paralyzed.

You really gonna do this because

that's the way it works.

They're not threatening.

They're gonna still attack, even though they don't have advantage on it.

Them's the rules.

He's gotta be rules on something.

He's literally surrounded by enemies, and he's not gonna get it.

Well, they're not able to do anything.

All right, well, fine.

Then I use a bonus action to

hide.

I'm gonna hide.

There you go.

And then,

ah, heck it.

I'll actually, if my walking speed is 40, can I start climbing or is it walking is it climbing speeds half of correct.

Okay.

And if you're hiding, make a stealth check just so I have note of what it was.

Okay.

Let me double check that my shoes don't give me anything.

I think they give you advantage, don't they?

They do on stealth.

I'm more talking about if I tried to climb.

I don't know if they have anything about that.

You get 10 feet of movement speed.

Yeah, that doesn't hurt me too much.

Well, it gives you a little more.

You get, so instead of 15 feet of climb, you get 20.

Yeah.

No, that's...

Because I wouldn't be able to complete it by the time.

So I'm just going to.

I'm just going to hide.

I'm just going to hide.

And then I'm going to do a stealth check with advantage.

And so you're not climbing?

no I'm not climbing that's a 25 and a 27.

All right.

All right.

Hey, it's the rules.

You gotta play by the rules.

Custom's being real mean.

So mean.

Alright, is that your future chip?

Yes, it is.

Actually, maybe the only movement I can imagine doing is just getting it in a more advantageous advantage.

Say it again.

Take two?

Advantageous spots.

Maybe I'm up in the stands or something.

That way I have a better perspective on Eddie.

That way he can't hide from my angle.

That could help, but then you end up getting further away at the same time.

Okay, then I'll just hide.

All right, so Dante, she's going to try to get out of her restraints.

Oh, so I apologize.

It says it in there.

It says, you don't need advantage on the attack roll if another enemy of the target is within five feet.

That enemy is

incapacitated, and you don't have disadvantage on the attack roll.

So that's my bad idea.

Yeah, I'm not making this up arbitrarily to mess with you.

No, no, I thought you were saying, well, they're not, they're like a non-combatant because of this thing.

And I was like, well, but

they're not able to.

My apologies.

Yeah,

the spirit behind it is that your ally or their other enemy is supposed to be there kind of threatening them so their attention is distracted and you're able to get like that critical strike in or that you know precise strike.

If they're not threatening, it's like all their attention can be focused on you as opposed to there.

That makes anyway.

Sorry for the his favorite.

No problem, Sedate, Alchemist, or back up at the top with Hugo, who is currently restrained.

At this point, maybe it's because of the earthquakes or some other unseen disaster, but the tide of Loch Cessna starts pouring into the amphitheater from the south,

covering the forest floor into two feet of lock with curious blue viscous fluid.

Coming in from the south, some of you are gonna be touching it though.

You're fine because you're a bird, but Elga, uh-huh, Barney, and Chip.

I have a question.

Do we have any sort of chance to react to this or do anything?

It's all happening pretty quick.

What kind of like damage is it doing?

Or like what effects does it have?

It's really weird.

You all, I guess, don't know.

You didn't see it, but when Chip touched it, it made him lose his memory briefly.

How long have we been in combat for?

This is round three.

So 12 seconds?

12 seconds.

Okay.

Is it it's not so it's not like necrotic or disease or anything like that, is it?

No.

Okay.

So those of you who are on the ground who I mentioned, make Constitution saving throats.

21.

16 19.

Okay, Chip is the only one who succeeded.

I guess you need a 20 or more, probably.

That's mean.

Dang it.

Because he's so mean today.

So mean.

I don't remember.

Why is he mean?

I don't remember.

They're just saying, they're just saying I'm mean.

He's doing the fact that he forgot his memory.

He's following the rules.

Thank you for it.

Yeah, I got you.

I got the jump.

Delayed.

I didn't get it.

That's pretty good.

so where was i uh elga you are awesome thank you

your memory becomes fuzzy and you can't remember how you got here to this spot i don't remember how i got here to this spot you feel like for some reason the last hour of your memory is just really fuzzy for some reason the last hour of my memory is funny and hazy respond to this can chip respond to this yeah sure you're we're in the middle of that battle they we walked in and then they went ha ha ha welcome to our trap and it's hugo and a vaina and eddie's up on that big thing and the alchemist is up there too and uh bad we gotta fight so you said a round is six seconds right so how many rounds did chip speech just take

Barney same applies to you this isn't your normal dementia

but I I imagine like we know we our memory loss isn't like of who's bad and who's good type thing correct yeah it's just like the last hour you still recognize everyone then you know what everyone is you're like you remember the vampire all of that stuff it's just the last hour it's just zap for some reason terrible thought to think that you're just like suddenly in combat and you're like where yeah am i it's actually scary luckily barney you don't suffer from that oh what his mastery of dimension

so that whatever if whatever happened didn't affect him barney yeah you uh you remember everything you just feel like you grow way older as you're standing there you get 15 years older oh that's another 15 years.

And meta game-wise, you take a level of exhaustion.

But that doesn't happen to Elga.

No, yours is just the memory.

Okay.

Exhaustion.

When is that happening to Barney?

It might be like a random thing.

It's a random thing.

Oh, gotcha.

What stuff they dumping into this lock?

Are they polluting this place?

Sounds like it.

And then, Chip, you succeeded your saving throw, right?

Yeah.

Also, wouldn't Hugo also be affected by this?

Yes, and I'm going to roll theirs here in a second.

Okay.

Oh, Chip, you also get the aging thing.

Oh.

Oh, but you succeeded, so yours isn't as bad.

Oh, okay.

I was going to say more like a silver fox.

You get

13 years older.

So does that have an effect?

But no exhaustion.

You just have disadvantage on your next action.

You see what a good cardiovascular workout can do for you?

Age like fine wine.

Everybody take note.

Eddie, you two, you look like hell.

So it would also affect Hugo, and that's it.

Not Evena?

Well, Evena's up in the stance.

Right.

So it's only like two feet deep, so it's only the ground.

Then we roll Hugo's save here.

He rolls a seven.

However, he can also choose to succeed on a save, and he does.

What?

He has that stupid power as well.

My next character, I'm going to go for that man.

It's his turn.

So he's restrained.

And he's still being attacked by the bats.

Yes, he's being attacked by the bats, and he's being held down by the

silver.

That's right.

So he's he's practically dead.

And he is submerged in this stuff.

Oh, he's drowning.

Yeah, yeah, I agree.

I'll tell you what, make a...

He's going to try to struggle his way out of it.

Make me an apostle Bart.

Don't forget you have inspiration if you fail this.

And exhaustion.

So I have disadvantage on this?

Yeah.

Why are we whispering?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I just wanted to be part of it.

How does it?

I had his inspiration.

First one, 21.

No one will listen.

Second one is 12.

What would an In Spo do on that?

Yeah, what would it?

Well, let me roll and and then we'll see.

Okay.

Wait, did I have it?

Did I have advantage?

Disadvantage, I think.

Oh, I had disadvantage, so that would be a 12.

Yeah.

Because you're exhausted.

Oh, Barney, you're so tired.

You're so bad.

You blow it.

What does the silver do to him?

It helps.

I've never said explicitly, yeah, but it does help.

Four, so he does not succeed.

Yay!

So he curses at you,

looking at you in the eyes, Barney.

He mutters under his breath, and you see him change into a giant bat.

Is he underwater?

Not anymore.

Is Is he doing some adorable gerbils?

Yeah,

my question is, he's changed into a giant bat, but I have him wrapped up in silver.

Yeah, but it's like the size is different.

He goes,

but he still has the silver on him or what?

Well, he's able to fly free from it.

Yeah.

He flies up into the air and hover...

Let's say about 50 feet up, kind of at the same height as the tree stump.

What kind of noises he make?

Oh, that's nice.

That's good.

As the amateur sounds.

Oh, it was the owl that we were making the fun of the screech, right?

No, it was a bat.

No, bat.

It's a bat.

They were fighting over.

Clicks or screeches.

Alright, so it's Eddie's turn.

Of course it is.

Yeah, then after Eddie is Mateed, then Barney.

He would take Attack of Opportunity from me, though.

Yeah, he would.

Why not?

Ah.

For my Attack of Opportunity, I would like to shoot him with a silverbane.

It has to be melee.

Yeah.

Okay.

Then can I do this?

Can I just stab him with one of the arrows?

Sure, why not?

Like, I don't know how that works.

Just make a, like, an unarmed.

We'll call it an armed arm, an arm strike, but just make an unarmed strike so you're able to hit him.

It's a mat 20.

Okay.

Yeah, you're able to hit him.

And I only have disadvantage on ability checks, right?

What does it say?

Because of exhaustion, because of exhaustion.

I imagine you don't have disability on, or disadvantage on attack rolls.

Yeah, I think it's just ability checks.

What does it say?

Disadvantage on ability checks.

Yes.

Okay.

So that's a crit.

Gus is like, just read.

Just read.

That's all I'm asking.

Sorry.

Did you do the homework?

Yeah.

So you're able to stab him with that bolt.

Go ahead and what's the damage on that?

Well, let's see.

On a crit, double the damage.

So that was it.

And then we'll add another six to that.

Well, it doesn't quite work because that damage assumes you're firing it with the force of like a bow of some kind.

So I'll say we'll just do the three plus six for nine.

Okay, and then

when you successfully hit an undead creature with this bolt, it deals an additional 3d8 radiant damage.

The creature then has to make a constitution saving throw dc13 plus proficiency bonus on a failed save they become stunned until the end of their next turn

okay and um it does get another plus two to damage because it is supernatural silver i'm adding that in right now minus 11.

And then it has to make a constitution saving throw.

Constitution is plus three.

Additionally, if the creature is an undead creature that is also a shape changer, they cannot transform using their shape changer trait for the next minute.

It's trapped as a bat for the next minute.

Well, that's a a 16.

So

the save is successful.

But it still takes the damage.

Alright, that was a good reaction.

Roll the 3d8.

Alright.

Yeah, that's...

That would have been so cool.

Yeah.

No, no, no.

It already was, Chris.

3d8.

Yeah.

It was a good thought.

At seven radiant damage.

Okay.

And he's vulnerable to radiant, isn't he?

I don't know if I ever said, but it sounds like that would be the case.

Vampiric trait.

And also, I have a blessed strike.

If you're blessed with divine might battle, when you creature takes damage from one of your cantrips or weapon attacks, you can can also deal 1d8 radiant damage.

Yeah, I don't see any reason why that wouldn't proc.

The name is Max.

Min-Max.

Roll a D8.

So that's an extra five Radiant damage.

All right.

My next character name in another campaign is going to be Min-Max.

That was a lot of damage for something that wasn't even your turn.

For a thousand-year-old man going, ugh.

All right, is that it?

For my reaction, for my attack of opportunity, yes.

All right.

Yeah, he takes a lot of damage, but still flies away as a bat, looking at you with evil, angry, bat eyes.

Yeah, emotionally, where is he at right now?

That's not good.

All right.

Does he ever stay away from my family?

Oh, that's pretty cool.

He hate something about me this time.

All right.

Eddie's turn.

Who's up here?

There's a paralyzed Mate.

Chip is down below hiding.

Hugh goes off to the side as a bat.

You can't find me.

And Alchemist is still up there too, right?

Yeah.

Where am I, Eddie?

Come find me.

Come find me.

Oh, I know eddie will uh close the distance over to mate and put out his arms wide like he's gonna go in for a real loving hug i think it's not gonna be a it's not very loving but this is good though you want this he's slaving his footing like a dummy that hits

ac 28 oh my god

so yeah he wraps his arms around you and holds tight squeezing you doing 27 points of bludgeoning damage

can you do like a dirty dancing where you lift Eddie above your head?

How much was that?

27.

27?

27 points of bludgeoning damage, and you are grappled.

How's your HP doing?

That's the first time I've taken a real hit.

Okay.

Yeah, he hugs you tight.

Aww.

Doesn't that feel good?

Ew.

Man, the urge right now that is trying to like struggle through the incapacitation to just peck him.

He is like perfect position.

Well, it is now.

Can I do anything else?

That's it.

So, it is now your turn, Mateet.

Then Barney the Nelica.

Okay, I can't do anything except for check to see if I can get out of this incapacitation.

Yeah, and that's at the end of your turn, right?

Right, so as I'm saying, I can't do anything but that.

Sure, okay.

So, what's the check?

Wisdom saving throw.

You could do it.

I believe in you, Mate.

Come on, I need you to talk in a very, very small mouth voice.

I'm using inspiration.

That was a one.

Oh, that's a gnat with like, it's like plus four, I think.

So gnat 20?

Yeah.

Yeah,

you got it.

The paralyzation

wears off.

You're able to shake your way out of it.

You're still grappled, but you can actually finally move again.

I have you right where I want you.

Oh, my God.

Just imagine him grappling you and your eyes just boasting open and be like,

it enrages you so much.

Barney.

Wait.

You make the check at the end.

Oh, the goozling.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Honk.

And the goozling knows which one to actually know wait.

Well, it's got blind sight, so they can automatically pick the right one.

But the other ones remain, though, correct?

Correct.

I kind of want to get rid of them because I think that would be beneficial for any further actions against

this little snot rag.

So it has bubbling hiss.

You ferociously hiss and exhale acidic bubbles in a 15-foot cone.

Are they that close close to each other?

Yes.

Okay.

Each creature in that area must make a DC-13 deck saving throw, and they all take like damage or half damage no matter what.

So, regardless, all of the

make ones.

I'm not even gonna roll.

I'm just gonna roll for a bank.

My decks is plus six, so I need a seven or better.

Okay, 15, so that's 21.

Okay, 3D6.

It's five,

four,

uh, six.

15 plus two, 17.

Yeah, so half that.

So we're gonna do eight.

Acidic damage.

Cool.

And then I guess it's in melee range.

What?

Yeah, so I think...

Honk.

Honk.

Yeah, that's it.

That's it.

I'm being very careful about letting this guy go because I missed using him well last time.

So yeah.

And I'm done.

Okay.

That's Barney.

Barney the Nelga.

Where's the water that's around us?

Like, how is it like on the ground?

It's coming in from the southern portion.

So

like, how much is it?

Like, two feet deep.

Two feet deep?

Okay.

And then, how far away is Hugo?

He flew up right now.

Yeah, he flew up 50 feet above 50 feet.

50 feet above?

Okay.

Question: If I did my steps of night, would I be able to grab Elga?

Steps of where I can get my flying speed equal to my walking speed.

Is it nighttime?

It is not.

It's

late afternoon.

So yeah, I mean, you could, but it's not dim light or darkness.

Could he maybe use a spell to cause another light to appear in the area which then would make it dimmer everywhere else yeah how does that work

i mean it's serious seriously i'm i'm i am making a callback to you trying to do that in the hide and sink episode where you thought adding a light into the room would make it different

it just made it a little dumber

different

it was a different it was a different

uh i guess is there a higher area around i mean you go up the seating the seating's like stadium style so where it goes up that's why ivena wasn't affected by the uh the lock width Yeah, how far away is that?

It's not too far away from where you are.

It's only like five to ten feet away.

And then, is that towards or away from Hugo?

So he went up.

He went straight up.

Yeah,

he's on that Z-axis.

Okay.

Come on, where are my geometry nerds at?

Right here, big.

I want to ask you,

you said, like, how far up?

40 feet?

50.

50.

Then I want to try and shoot him again.

Can I jump towards the sands and shoot up at him while I jump?

Yeah, I mean, I would say that would be a disadvantage.

You can move and then shoot.

Right, I'll do that.

It won't be as cool, Gus.

Yeah, you can move up onto the stands, like, 10 feet up, and, like, that doesn't put you very high.

It puts you just, like, just above the lock width, but, you know, you're out of it.

Then you can take a shot.

And so, how close am I to him now?

I mean, at that point, 45 feet.

Okay.

Then, yeah, I'm going to shoot him with the silver bane bolt.

I guess a disadvantage.

Oh, you, I mean, this wouldn't be disadvantage.

Disadvantage is just if you were, like, well, jumping and trying to do that.

Yeah, but the range of it is 30 feet.

Oh, gotcha.

Yeah, that's it.

Well, actually, it says the crossbow says 80 feet, but then the silverbane bolt says 30.

So I'm shooting it with the crossbow.

So yeah, they are just ammo being fired by the

normal 80 feet.

Okay, cool.

Your normal 80 fit of range with the crossbow.

Gotcha.

Yes, yes, yes.

All right.

Well, then I'm going to shoot him with a silverbane bolt.

That's a 26.

That hits.

Yes.

And I'm going to roll for that.

That's 6, And then I, I guess, plus two.

Yeah, so eight.

And then...

I make the save.

Yeah.

22.

Dang it.

Dang it.

Dang it.

So I still take the damage.

Isn't there like a 3d8 radiant damage as well?

Yeah, 3d8 radiant damage.

I'll roll that now.

That's 13.

Okay.

Plus, I'll then do the same action again.

That whatever.

Blessed strike or whatever it's called.

Oh, right.

So I can do that once per turn.

That was only one.

But it's all radiant.

Once you deal this damage, you can't use use it.

You just start your next turn.

Yep.

Okay, one.

All right.

That's my action and movement, right?

Yes.

You still have some movement if you want to move more.

Oh, well, I can see where the water.

Then, yeah, I would go up as much as I can.

Yeah, you can keep climbing up the stairs a bit more just to put more distance between yourself and the lockwood.

Is there anyone within 20 feet of me at this point?

I mean, no enemy.

No, and then you move.

No, there's no one within 20 feet.

Even Elga's a little further away at this point.

Hello.

There she is.

Bye.

Where am I?

Elga, have you taken damage?

Nope.

Uh, yes, technically, I have.

Then I'll do uh mass healing word.

I mean, I took five points of damage.

I don't know if it's worth using right now.

Well, then I'll then I'll just do

my regular healing word if Elga if you don't need it.

Okay, I'll do healing word on myself.

I'm at 103 out of 108.

What's your healing word?

Can't be Ben Gay.

Give me a new one.

Uh, it's

that's a weird one.

I'll throw you one in.

Prunes.

Prunes.

The magical fruit.

Penamusal.

And is that it for Barney?

Yeah.

All right.

It's Elga, then Avina, then Chip.

Elga's probably like, what

is happening?

Claire.

I'm going to rage.

Get that out of the way.

So confused.

Yeah, so confused and angry.

And then I'm going to see that there's water all over the ground and

Lockwood, thank you.

Would I know that, though?

Who knows?

Yeah.

And then I want to run up into the stands.

Okay.

Kind of following Barney, I assume?

Yeah.

Get up, get some higher ground there.

So I'm not in the water anymore.

Lockwood.

Thank you.

Lockwood.

And then

between me and Hugo, are we within 60 feet of each other?

Because you said he's 60 feet.

He went 50 feet up.

You walked over there.

We're doing hypotenuse math again.

He's a probably...

He's probably about 60.

Okay.

I would like to throw my axe of the scarab at him.

Yeeting it.

Do 28.

That hits.

I would imagine so.

Doing 13 plus 3 from my rage.

16 points of damage.

Alright, 16.

Got it.

And then I'm going to do it again.

Alright.

Keeping it simple.

Oh, also Hunter's Mark.

Right?

So, okay, another D6, which is another 3.

So add that on.

Nice.

And then I hit again for 22.

422 or you hit 22?

I hit 22.

Yeah, that hits.

Okay.

Doing, so that's 12 plus 3 is 15 plus

2.

So another 17 points of damage.

17.

Okay.

And then.

Hmm.

And then.

And then.

Yes, and.

Yes, and.

Could I put on my ring of springtime?

Sure, why not?

What does that do?

Fabled ring.

Crafted from Ignis.

Glass.

And infused with the blood of youths.

Oh, this is an action.

Never mind.

I can't.

I don't think I can put it on.

It says, using an action, the ring can transform the target's body into a mature adult in their prime.

You can put it on, just you can't activate it.

Okay, I put it on.

So many rings.

I can hear those.

Yeah, some are rings.

And that'll be it.

Okay.

It is Avina's turn, then chip.

Avina, Caesar.

Caesar, come get me.

Fake sister.

Come out and play.

Won't but play with us.

Like the goozling's just pecking at her, so she can't really pay attention.

She looks across the

amphitheater to you, Elga.

She looks at the goozling and looks at Mateed.

And then she actually addresses Mateed.

With a sneer, she says, You should have never sent me to the Australian plane.

Now I know where it is.

And with that, she blinks out of existence.

That's scary.

Uh-oh, our stuff.

Oh!

Yeah, I did what I could do.

She's too powerful.

She's too powerful.

She's pretty powerful and creepy.

And then a short time later, she blinks back into existence atop the stump.

I don't feel like she should be able to travel that far, but you know, that's just because it's a stinker, man.

Chip, you're up.

Hey there, Chip Painty here.

Good to see you.

How you doing?

Good.

Okay, I'm gonna shoot uh what were you asking?

I didn't know who to respond to.

You know, Chip Painey, the author of the Home Owners Association.

Joey, I'm gonna grab your copy.

God, uh, I'm gonna shoot the crust.

Okay, okay, really quick.

They're on top of the stump.

I know that the alchemist is up there, and I know that Eddie is up there.

And now Avena.

And Avena and Matida.

And Matid.

Two questions.

One, how far away is Hugo from them?

You can't see him because the stump is in the way blocking it.

Okay.

Chip doesn't know it, but Blaine, you heard this.

Hugo is 50 feet up in the air, but on the other side of the stump from you.

So you can't see him, but he's at the same height of the top of the stump, but just on the other side.

Outside of my dear sweet Mate, is there anybody within 10 feet of Eddie?

Within 10 feet would be

maybe a Vayna and the Alchemist.

You wouldn't know that because you can't see.

Okay.

If I like shoot that ice thing, it needs like 46 ice damage, so that can like totally mess you up, dude.

I mean, possibly.

That's a big range.

Okay, all right.

Well, then I'm just gonna shoot the crossbow of coolness at Eddie.

I already made that roll, and it was a 24, 16 plus 8.

That is.

Okay.

And then I'm gonna do the damage.

And that's eight points of damage.

Eight points of damage on Eddie.

And then we also have the thing that you might not let happen, but that's okay because I forgive you.

Because Mate is within five feet, does that allow me to do that?

I'm incapacitated?

Correct.

Mate is not incapacitated.

In fact, Mateed is grappling with Eddie.

So that is the maximum level of engagement you can have.

Oh, great.

So then that lets me do a, what was it, sneak attack?

Yeah, you can add your sneak dice to that.

Okay, and I think that is...

I'm looking for it.

I think it's 5d6.

I believe you are at 5d6 currently.

Okay, cool.

This is all from memory, so interesting.

Brabos.

So good.

All right, here we go.

We're going to roll that.

Ha-cha-cha-cha.

See a lot of ones.

C6.

Oh, 18.

That's pretty good.

Okay, there's that.

So that was my attack.

And then as far as movement, I'm still in the water, yeah?

Lockwood.

I'm so sick.

Guys, I'm so sorry.

If you just said liquid, I wouldn't be able to correct you.

I've been stepping out of line so much this campaign.

Everyone keeps saying.

Am I in Lockwood?

Yes, you are.

Ah.

Ah.

Okay, then I'm going to move out of it.

I'm going to get into the stand so that I can get above it.

Yeah.

It's pretty easy to move over there out of the Lockwood.

And then I'm also going to use cunning action to hide.

Okay.

Make your stealth bro.

He probably would say it's not liquid, it's loquid no he couldn't because it is a liquid yes it is a liquid liquid is an elemental state the wet stuff how about that yeah that works a 23 and a 29 29 then right 29 with advantage yep and then i poop out of appearance that's my turn i bow thank you and good night heck of a dance member

it's the source of his heckish rebuke with that the alchemist finishes brewing his potion draws from the draft and stiffly holds out a glass vial dripping with golden fluid with lightning speed speed, Hugo flies in and snatches the elixir from his hands and quaffs the concoction without hesitation.

The alchemist's eyes turn back to Hazel, albeit horror-stricken.

Hugo smiles wide for a moment, but it quickly fades and he starts wretching violently, hurling sallow slop onto the floor.

You worthless peddler of potions, you'll pay for your impotence.

Hugo heads straight for the alchemist, his fangs and claws extended, ready to rip through the man's throat.

But at the last moment, a skinless figure steps between them.

Hugo's claws plunge deep into Eddie's sinewy chest, and green blood spews from his verdant veins.

Eddie cries out in agony and falls to his knees.

Out of my way, you cursed lunatic!

Oh, but where's the fun in that?

Eh, Hugo?

Your usefulness has run its course, Edward.

Hugo lunges fang first into his sinewy neck, and Eddie wraps both his hulking arms around the vampire, like a constricting snake.

Eddie laughs maniacly one last time and pulls Hugo with him into the blue visca slot.

Not but a moment later a vampiric visage emerges drenched in the sapphire slot.

Hugo shrieks as his skin boils and curls into a disfigured abomination.

One way or another,

this ends now.

Two sinewy wings rip off from his back and a hideous Hugo flies off to the east.

The alchemist stumbles to the ground.

He shakes his head with furrowed brows.

I don't understand.

The elixir was ready, so why didn't it?

What?

Where am I?

Dad?

A boy with olive complexion, rosy cheeks, dressed in torn rags, steps out from the lockwid.

What?

Henry?

What?

Huh?

Wait, wait.

Never trusted that little boy from the start.

I called this from the gabagette.

We should have never let him out of that closet.

He should have stayed in the closet.

Find out what it all means and what's happening in next week's episode of Tales from the Sneaky Dragon.

What do you guys do now?

I think we should go check out the security office and look for the security cameras.

I don't know, the teacher told us to go back to our rooms.

Yeah, teacher also stabbed me in the chest, so I'm kind of, you know, not wanting to listen to what they say.

You didn't go to your room.

I don't want to get stabbed in my chest.

Dorkeas, you know, sometimes to be cool, you just have to go against the grain and like not do what authority figures tell you.

Okay.

Why don't you just pretend to be a teacher?

That's taking us to this somewhere else.

Listen, I don't know if a 13-year-old is going to pass as a teacher here.

He has shapeshifting abilities.

That's true.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

He just was sweating profusely.

Oh, I thought Chris was being smart about his abilities.

Now, Chris was just saying this 13-year-old.

No, no, that's what I meant.

I meant he liked transformation.

I did.
