- All right, everybody. Welcome to the final Session
0:06
of Campaign one of playing games with strangers.
0:09
This has been the longest four day special
0:12
I've ever done in my life. <laugh>, uh, uh, jokes aside, uh, this is kind
0:19
of an emotional moment for me.
0:21
I don't know about anybody else, but, uh, eh, not only is it the end of campaign one,
0:27
but it is J S's last episode
0:31
as a permanent stranger here. So we'll probably say more about
0:36
that when we get to the end. But with that, the final roll call
0:42
of campaign one with me in the studio.
0:46
Tonight we have the mama
0:48
of the podcast, Celeste Mora.
0:52
Hello, uh, we have
0:55
everybody's favorite squid,
0:58
- Weird Uncle Ky. Hi <laugh>. It's me, <laugh>
1:03
- The talent. Josiah Crandall.
1:06
- Hi, - The world's best
1:10
comic book author, JS Earl's.
1:13
- Hello. - We have the world's Okayest sister-in-Law,
1:18
<laugh>, Amanda Clements. And then we have my total BFF.
1:22
Not even kidding, ever person. Me?
1:27
Uh, no. Uh, dang. <laugh>. Wow.
1:30
- If you can't love yourself, - <laugh>, - You know, it's taken you three
1:35
and a half years to find out that you really do love yourself, John.
1:39
And I'm glad that I was able to help <laugh>.
1:43
- All right. Well, uh, Josiah,
1:47
for the last time in campaign one. - Tonight we embark on the last chapter of our epic journey.
1:55
We've explored Dungeons Met Dragons bin goats,
1:59
and now the Final Battle. So gather round brave souls
2:03
as we dive headfirst into our adventure with each roll
2:06
of the dice, with every choice that's made, that destiny
2:10
of our heroes hangs in the belt.
2:12
- 4, 3, 2, 1. Playing games.
2:17
Stranger know there's no
2:25
playing. I'm playing games with strangers,
2:35
like, play, play. I'm playing games with strangers.
2:43
- Are you so excited that I never have to do this and this voice ever again?
2:47
I am. Woo. It's a really short one.
2:50
We went into some shadows. They sucked us up into the air
2:52
and then dropped us into this realm where there was a lot
2:54
of like, pillars of white things, and then a lot of shadows
2:58
and the realms were emerging. And then there was a town, and then there wasn't a town,
3:01
and then the town was back again. Ah. And then there was a person that was like, Hey,
3:05
you could say the person's name and they'll show up. And then Poo says Tilda, and boom, there's Kerik.
3:12
Let's fight the bus. - I would like to point out by the way that they even,
3:18
I even literally told Poo. Don't say it.
3:23
- <laugh>. I would like to point out that you told Poo don't say it. Yeah.
3:28
- <laugh>. - I think - I'd like to point out that John, you're not an NPC
3:32
or a PC in the game technically. So Poo didn't hear you say it.
3:37
- The NPC said it. - Well, he did. No one. Listen,
3:41
we don't know him. We don't trust him. - Yeah, we don't know. This is just some ghost
3:45
guy popping in and out. - I'm so not - Ready for this.
3:50
- I am so ready for this. - Okay. - We pick up some shenanigans happened at the end,
4:03
and we are starting in full mode.
4:07
Boss fight. And
4:12
Mayra, you're at the beginning of this.
4:15
Uh, all of you are basically suspended
4:19
in nothingness right now. Like the ground has come away from you
4:23
and you're suspended like in space
4:26
around this thing or not around it, but
4:31
because it is both infinitely large
4:34
and small at the exact same time. - Is there a floor or are we just
4:43
- Zero gravity? - Think of it like zero gravity.
4:48
- I don't like that. Okay. But where's the target?
4:50
'cause then whatever's underneath the target is then the
4:53
floor ender taught me that.
4:56
- No, the door is up. - The door is up. You got what I'm
5:00
- Saying. I'm there with you. Like the movie. No,
5:05
- What a great film right there. Oh, geez. Exactly. Word for word. The book.
5:11
- Psychic damage. - I just took psychic damage.
5:14
- So what's our movement speed if we are floating?
5:18
- I don't have a float speed - <laugh>.
5:21
Okay. Apparently somebody wasn't listening last session when
5:23
I said there is no there or here
5:26
- It's it. - Okay. I'm trying to figure out how
5:29
to use my character sheet to do things. - <laugh>. Let's treat it like
5:33
normal and then see what happens. - Okay. <laugh>, - You're our experiment.
5:37
- Cool. - Can I stab it? - Uh, go ahead and roll.
5:42
- Definitely large and small. So, um, we're gonna use my rape here.
5:48
- That makes sense. Okay. - You hit and missed it.
5:52
- <laugh> - At the same time. - Mr. Earls is being snarky tonight.
5:58
- <laugh>, isn't he always - 25? That's
6:01
- Why. Uh, yes. 25 will hit.
6:04
- And is anybody close enough that I would get my bonus
6:09
for whatever it's called? - You're saying specifically for sneak attack, right?
6:14
- Yeah. - This is good information for me to know as well.
6:18
- <laugh>. Oh, okay. I really am the experiment here.
6:20
All right. Yeah, that's fine. - I will say in this instance, no.
6:25
- Okay, - So then 12
6:29
- With my stabby stick. - Alright. - Do you have any bonus actions at all that,
6:36
that you can take or, I'd say movement,
6:39
but movement really doesn't matter. - Hiding is a bonus. Action. - Can I do that?
6:45
- Uh, I was kind of, I'll let you do it.
6:50
Roll stealth. - We, we are able to see each other, correct?
6:58
- Oh, yes. I'm sorry. <laugh>. Oh my - God. It's okay.
7:01
- Wow. - <laugh>. Sorry, I was panicked there for a second. <laugh>
7:06
- <laugh>. Nope. Blind. - We can see everyone, but Mira.
7:12
- All right. Aileen, you're up. - Okay, I'm gonna cast Eldridge blast straight off the bat.
7:19
I really don't like Hilda. - She doesn't like you either. - That's fair.
7:25
- Go ahead and roll. Damage - Seven.
7:32
- You fire off this Eldridge blast. And for as big of a blast as you ripped off, uh,
7:40
you would, it, it, it, and how hard it seemed to hit you would've expected it
7:44
to have done more damage, but, uh, it, it did some,
7:49
but not as much as you would've expected.
7:53
- Well, she always was a stubborn one.
7:56
- Uh, Callum. - Hey, that's me.
8:00
- You have a feeling of cl clarity
8:02
and control in this environment
8:06
that is basically like being suspended in the static
8:11
of a television without a signal. - But could you also explain to me what a television is?
8:17
- You, I'm giving that for an example as far
8:19
as something you would, you the player would relate to.
8:22
- Right? Well, there's a first time for everything.
8:26
Uh, I would like to cast wording Bond
8:30
on Poo, please. And say go get 'em. Champ
8:36
- A Cando, - Uh, which as a reminder that allows you
8:40
to get a plus one to your AC and your saving throw
8:44
and you have resistance to all damage. - Is there something about the current environment
8:49
that is irritating to Callum right now?
8:53
- Well, got Carrick's here. So - I mean, outside of that,
8:59
- Oh, well, I don't know. I think of all the things in the campaign,
9:02
Tilda might have been the most irritating. So <laugh>, other than that, no.
9:06
I feel like Tilda iss our un bridge. Yeah.
9:08
Otherwise, nothing too irritating. At the present moment, uh, I'm feeling good, feeling young
9:14
and full of life.
9:17
Vitality ready to go then waiting. Okay,
9:21
- Fine. I was trying to do something, but it's cool. Uh, so yeah, I
9:25
- Mean, I can always find irritation deep down inside <laugh>.
9:28
- I'm, I'm sure you can, but hopefully you'll find it by your next turn.
9:32
Uh, so Callum, uh, tags the spell onto Poo.
9:37
- If I, if I can feel suspended in place, can I also feel
9:40
as though I can move myself? - Uh, yeah. - Do I get a sense of where people are
9:45
or is it all just the same of like, everyone is kind
9:47
of everywhere - For some reason you have this a sense
9:51
of spatial relation in this environment?
9:54
- It's the first sense of relation I've ever had. Uh, I'd like <laugh>.
9:58
I like, I like to move far away from Kerik.
10:03
Okay. But within a decent amount of space from Poo
10:07
so that I'm close to him. And I'd also like to give Kerik a rude gesture.
10:12
- Uh, it is both in front of his face
10:15
and very far away from him at the same time.
10:18
- Good. He'll see it twice. <laugh>. - Um, all right. Orba, you're up next.
10:24
- Okay. My Tom Sky or whatever it is.
10:29
- Sths. - Sth. - Simar. - So now I'd have to do is click it
10:33
to attack. Yep. - Take the uh, 24 hits. - Woo. Hey,
10:39
- Any deal? A total of Finally someone's starting to hit
10:42
with some power here. - Hey, we did our best. I rolled a net 20.
10:50
- You did? - I did. When I, when I cast Eldridge blasts.
10:55
- Oh, - Alright. So you make a slash
10:58
and it creates this giant gash in, uh, the side
11:03
of Kerik as some brown vetted bile eks out.
11:09
Poo, you're up. - Wait, don't I get to attack more? I'm a barbarian.
11:14
- He does. Oh, he does. Do you have another attack? Go ahead.
11:16
- Yeah. Yeah. <laugh>, - Uh, 16 does not hit, sir, write
11:21
- That down. - You hit so good on that first one that, uh,
11:24
you were distracted and the didn't land your sword, right.
11:27
And you kind of flat sided. - I was thinking about a little song and dance,
11:31
but no, I guess. - Alright, poo, you're up. <laugh>.
11:36
- All right. Kerik. But Tilda, there's
11:40
- Not a good combination. <laugh> here I come
11:44
- And then I, uh, I I run fist swinging, uh,
11:49
for my first attack, and that will not hit.
11:52
- Spatial distortion in this place is difficult to overcome.
11:55
- Yeah, it is. That was, that was rough.
11:58
Um, so, uh, I guess I'll go ahead
12:02
and use my next attack and try again with my other fist.
12:07
Okay. That should work. That's a 24.
12:11
- Uh, yeah, you may, you make contact with that.
12:14
- Okay. Yeah. 13 damage. And since that hit, I'll go ahead
12:18
and use this key point to use, uh, fury
12:22
of Blows and do another strike here.
12:26
Okay. Will be a 21 to
12:31
- Hit. Yeah. Uh, that barely hits.
12:34
- Okay. 11 Damage. Ho
12:36
- Ho. Take that and that, and I am done.
12:42
- Poo comes up swinging and on the first, on the first hit, he manages to hit just
12:46
below the newly opened gash that Orba makes.
12:50
And his fist slips off the brown, uh, foul smelling bile
12:55
that's protruding from it. But with his other fist, he comes up swinging again
13:00
and lands two more strikes on this quivering flesh mound
13:05
as its attention gets turned towards the group.
13:09
- That's right. We're not messing around.
13:12
- And, uh, it looks down and it says
13:16
- Mother sound. You've come home to your aunts,
13:22
but there is no mercy to be found
13:25
- As a giant ma comes down to
13:28
take a bite at you. Uh, Aileen Celeste, you're gonna take 24 points of damage.
13:36
14 piercing and 10 psychic. - Better than what I thought. I I had the thought of.
13:42
I'm in danger. <laugh> <laugh>. This is fine.
13:46
- It spins around and three kite a sickles slash
13:49
out at you poo. - I want to miss those
13:52
- So those miss. And then two tentacles fly out at Orba. Oh, that's that.
13:59
Oh, that's a crit bro. Not
14:02
- A crit pro - <laugh>. Fortunately, it, uh, it's only 24 points
14:09
of bludgeoning damage as these two tentacles shoot out at you.
14:12
And I need you to roll a deck. Save please.
14:15
- While he does that, may I make an opportunity attack on,
14:18
um, this man please. And thank you.
14:21
- An opportunity attack, - Seeing as how there's no such thing as, um, distance here.
14:25
I would assume that he is both within five feet and out of five feet, and
14:28
therefore within the range of an opportunity attack. - Oh, snap. - And he's hitting my
14:32
friends and I don't like it. <laugh> Well, friends is a generous term,
14:35
but I, I'll let it slide for this present moment.
14:40
- Um, I will do that if you can
14:44
roll me a perception check to be able to establish
14:51
a ality to the, to hit,
14:54
because I know you're trying to game the system here,
14:57
because when I said - I am, I am not because Emin's whole class is just hitting
15:01
people when they attack other people that is not gaming the system.
15:04
That's just her class <laugh>. - Oh, okay. Okay, okay.
15:08
I thought you were saying attack of opportunity, like,
15:11
ha ha he's moving away from me. - No, I have Sentinel
15:15
and hold the line, which means if he attacks anyone
15:18
while he is within five feet of me. - Gotcha. Gotcha, gotcha, - Gotcha.
15:21
Or within my reach I should say. - Okay. Okay. I'm sorry, I misunderstood.
15:26
Or bug, uh, rolled a 17.
15:30
That does save. So you managed to just
15:33
after you got hit by these tentacles, you ducked under
15:36
as they tried to grapple around you
15:39
and Emerin swings around. - Can I also, so here's the thing.
15:43
I do kind of want to gain the system now that squid's brought it up, but I also have a
15:47
- Reaction I would like to submit that I did not game the system.
15:50
John just accused me of gaming the system.
15:52
- Well, I'm going to admit that. I would like to. So technically my reaction is a spell called Accelerate
15:58
Decelerate, where I could potentially
16:03
accelerate the amount of damage that Emerin does.
16:08
- Well, I mean, it's a reaction. So that's fine if you want to do that.
16:12
But then your reaction for like, say for instance,
16:15
uncanny Dodge or things like Mm-Hmm. <affirmative>, things of that nature. Mm-Hmm. <affirmative>.
16:18
You wouldn't be able to use it for that then. - Yep. I'm good with that. - I rolled a 21 to hit,
16:25
- Uh, barely hits. - Great. Barely is still hit 13 slashing.
16:33
- Is this the gla that to, is this the Okay,
16:36
- The yum. Yum. Gla Mm-Hmm. <affirmative> the yum.
16:39
- So plus nine - 13 plus 9 22.
16:44
I did that fast. I'm proud of myself. Math <laugh>.
16:48
- All right. Uh, I'm so, yeah,
16:50
Kerik not happy about getting stabbed.
16:54
And as Carrick's reaction, uh, suddenly,
17:00
uh, time space develops in your area
17:05
and you are all on ground, uh, all within five feet.
17:10
So there are no attacks of opportunity, uh, of Kerik
17:14
and Kerik figure or dimension.
17:20
It turns into a smaller version of itself.
17:22
- So we're not social distancing anymore. - <laugh>, tiny Kerik. - Well, still bigger than you, but
17:31
- Relative. - You're right. - Relative, uh,
17:34
- Crowd. Yay,
17:37
- Wilder, you're up. - I'm going to use a can trip called Infestation,
17:43
which, uh, essentially I'm casting a cloud of Mites, fleas,
17:47
and other parasites on two Kerik.
17:51
Okay. And he has to succeed a con save.
17:56
Otherwise he takes damage. He needs to be to 14.
18:00
- I like how Amanda, I made the same face.
18:03
- Uh, 21. - Okie dokie.
18:06
- Barely. Barely. But he does it. <laugh>.
18:08
- <laugh>. - He doesn't itch,
18:11
but everybody else seeing it does, - Shouldn't they be attracted
18:15
to all the bile coming out of it? - Okay, well, um, so nothing happens with that.
18:22
- Good try. - That's cool. Yeah.
18:24
So I would like to use that disengage
18:27
and then give myself about 20 feet of space.
18:31
- Oh, that's - It. <laugh>. - So land appears and, and, uh, <laugh> Wilder go, comes up
18:39
and goes every Jabba. And then it's just little poof. And he's like, nevermind.
18:42
And runs off. - Just kidding. - <laugh>.
18:47
- Good. Good try. Wilder. Good try.
18:51
- Okay. I love you. Bye-Bye. - That's amazing. Emerin.
18:55
- I would like to hit him. - I would like to rage. Um,
18:59
- I would, I would like to submit that I am raging.
19:04
I am, however, not a barbarian, so it does nothing, but it's cathartic.
19:11
That is a 22 to hit the
19:13
- Hits - That is 44.
19:15
Damage to this individual poof.
19:20
To, to this Tilda, to this Tilda.
19:24
Everyone also makes a rude gesture, but it's a different gesture than call man.
19:28
- Interesting. All right. Uh, any bonus actions at all?
19:33
- I'd like to action search, just to get this out of the way. Right away.
19:35
- You waited for it. - So I'll do three more attacks,
19:41
- No cut. - 43 damage.
19:44
And then I'll just use the free action to ye instead
19:46
of the bone of suction <laugh>. - So yeah, you hack a chunk off of Kerik.
19:52
Uh, seems very unhappy about it, but, uh,
19:55
- Well - Ts the brakes as they say. Mera.
20:00
- Is there a behind the creature?
20:03
- There is a behind the creature. - Can I stab it? <laugh>. <laugh>.
20:12
- Alright. - 27.
20:15
- Oh yeah, that hits - Barely <laugh>.
20:20
Is this really eight D six? - Yes, ma'am. - I'm not doing very good.
20:25
- Now for the maths. - May I suggest a calculator? I don't trust that, but Sure.
20:30
40 - Sounds right.
20:33
So, uh, yeah, you're, you're able to kind of carve into
20:38
this beast, but again, you make contact with it
20:42
and it doesn't seem to cut like it's supposed to,
20:45
and it doesn't take as it, it doesn't seem like it's doing
20:49
as much damage as you would want it to. - Not much I can do about that.
20:54
- All right, Aileen, - Oh, goodie.
20:57
I am going to play my hopp with a 19 to hit,
21:02
- Uh, a 19 misses. Aileen pulls out this harp button
21:06
and you guys watch this bead of orange just fly by.
21:11
And then somewhere in the background you see a
21:13
massive explosion. Good,
21:16
- Good, good try, Aileen. I like the effort. Let's keep it going. Team.
21:20
- Thanks Poo. - Callum, you're up.
21:23
- Great. I would like to cast harm.
21:27
- <laugh>, - Um, - <laugh>, wouldn't we all?
21:31
- It sounds like a joke, but that's actually the name of the spell.
21:33
That's what I'd like to cast on. Kerik. - Alright. - Um, so Kerik needs
21:37
to make a constitution saving throw.
21:40
- Uh, 1517 - Is the d dc so I'm going to roll all these dice. Hang on.
21:46
- Do we how many, how many of what dice are those for the listening?
21:50
- That is 14 D six. Yeah. - Oh my good Lord.
21:55
- Yeah. This is one of the biggest spells I have - While Squid tries to
21:59
identify the highest number that there is.
22:02
- Come back to me in about four minutes, please. <laugh>,
22:06
- This is that dangerous math game
22:08
that your parents warned you about in the eighties.
22:11
Oh, no. There's demons in math. - Um, okay. So that's going to be 49 points
22:16
of necrotic damage. Um, and the hit point maximum will also be reduced by 49
22:23
- As this hits. And for the amount of power that you unleash to reduce
22:29
by 49, it doesn't quite do as much damage
22:33
as you had. - Just not nice. - Hey, you know,
22:39
- That's rude, John. That's rude.
22:42
- I didn't make this build. I'm just using it.
22:45
Mm-Hmm, <affirmative> - Likely good.
22:48
- Excuse a very valid excuse. Is there anything that on a subconscious level,
22:52
Callum would change about his environment? Right now?
22:55
- I'd probably make Kerik take all the damage. <laugh>.
23:01
- Uh, as you think this to yourself, you watch the ground
23:04
underneath Kerik shift and push the beast up
23:07
and then down again, uh, but to no avail.
23:09
You, you get the feeling that that was kind of produced by
23:14
your irritation. - I am filled with irritation,
23:18
not determination in this case. - Uh, Orba, you're up, homie.
23:24
I'd like caar, hopefully
23:27
- Best - Bow. Uh, yo. Yeah, you ca you rolled a 31.
23:30
That's, that's gonna hit homie. Whew.
23:33
- Ooh. - Be oh. Sweet Zombie Jesus. All right.
23:35
Um, you crit on that one.
23:38
Uh, you land two solid strikes on this, uh, on this beast
23:42
as more, uh, brown feted bile
23:47
flows from its wounds. Poo, you're up. Oh
23:50
- Boy. Let's try this again. You,
23:56
- So this will be with thoughts seven, damage.
24:00
Only one of them is psychic. And then I'll punch again.
24:05
And then on that I will use fur of blows.
24:09
And now I'll use my second action to attack again.
24:12
And that one will not.
24:14
- Uh, two hits seems to be the order of the day every time you guys attack kerik.
24:19
But as, as soon as poo gets done beating on Kerik,
24:24
the gaping wounds that or bog left in the side of her, uh, a tongue comes out
24:31
of it and starts to lick the bile that's seeping out.
24:34
- Oh, that's, - That's not sanitary. That's disgust.
24:39
- It slurps it back in. And it seems like the wounds ti kind of close up a bit.
24:45
- I don't like that. No, I don't. <laugh>.
24:48
- And then instead of doing a physical attack, it's going
24:51
to look towards, uh, you a lean
24:56
and it is going to cast a seventh level fantasm killer.
25:00
- Oh God. What does that do? Nothing good.
25:04
- I need you to make a wisdom saving throw. Please.
25:08
- Needle 11. - Uh, yeah, that's not gonna do it.
25:12
This creature, it reaches into your, uh, mind
25:15
and pulls out an illusory manifestation
25:18
of your deepest fear. Which is what?
25:22
- Another Tilda. There's two Tilda <laugh>.
25:25
I, uh, I don't know.
25:28
- Well, whatever it is, we'll just put a big censored bar over the front of it
25:32
so nobody else gets frightened. Uh, it's
25:36
- Artificial vanilla <laugh> - <laugh>.
25:40
It's a big bottle of it. - You, you, you see the production line a giant
25:44
- Be Beaver - <laugh>. Yeah. - Giant beaver. - You see a giant
25:48
artificial vanilla production line, - Those poor beavers.
25:53
- And you are going to take, uh, seven D 10 psychic damage.
25:59
- Disgraceful. Well, - Oh, lots of ones in there.
26:03
Uh, you only take 25 points of psychic damage.
26:07
- Okay. Ow you fat. - So you sw you
26:12
- Embarrassment to the name of this family.
26:16
- That's no way to talk to our friend. Show 'em Wilder.
26:19
- I am going to cast minor life steal
26:22
that says You drain life energy from a hostile creature.
26:25
You can see within range. The target must succeed on a constitution saving throw
26:30
or take a certain amount of necrotic damage.
26:32
- I rolled a dirty 20. - Well fart.
26:37
Not cool. Um, I'm really,
26:42
really loving my character right now.
26:46
- <laugh>. - Sorry, my dude.
26:52
- I'm just gonna sit. No. Um, - <laugh>,
26:56
- I was gonna sit and cry 'cause crying is a free action.
26:59
I - That's good to know.
27:06
- No, - I think I'm gonna cut off my hands
27:08
and no more magic for me, but - <laugh>, that's an option.
27:12
- Emerin your turn. - Uh, I know this will probably be
27:15
surprising, but I'd like to hit him - No.
27:18
Hard. - I know, I know.
27:20
It'll be even more surprising when I say I wanna do it with Myla.
27:23
- Really? I know the sharp side - Haven't decided.
27:26
Okay. We'll see after I roll. So 20
27:31
- No hit - And a 19, so that one won't.
27:35
And then, uh, natural 19.
27:40
- I know how I feel and I'd like to use my reaction
27:43
to cast accelerate decelerate at third level.
27:46
So that's 2D six plus one - Three plus another 16.
27:52
- So Emerin emerin whiffs on two swings of the,
27:55
of her grave, but manages to catch him with that third one.
27:59
It sparks a little bit of bile at you as you make contact.
28:04
- I look mad about it. - <laugh>, as you do about pretty much
28:09
everything in life at this point. Yeah. Uh, Mera, you're up. I'm gonna
28:13
- Be really interesting and I'm going to try
28:17
and cast inflict wound.
28:20
- Do you, are you a spell caster? - No. This is a special thing that happens
28:24
because of my race, huh?
28:27
- Oh, - Yeah. 'cause I am in the winter season.
28:31
I get to have a spell. I've had this spell forever
28:34
and I haven't needed it for anything. - I did not know this about you.
28:38
You, you have sufficiently surprised me.
28:41
- 13. That was great. Awesome. Nevermind.
28:47
- A 13 to hit. Yeah, that's not gonna do it. I know.
28:49
- All right, cool. That was an attack.
28:52
So I guess I will, um, hide
28:57
- <laugh>. So, so you, you guys watch this as mayor comes outta hiding,
29:01
just comes up and gives a loving caress down the back of,
29:04
uh, of Tilda. Then goes back into hiding again. <laugh>
29:07
- Goes, oh man, I didn't like that one bit <laugh>.
29:13
I touched her and decided it was bad. - Okay, I'm gonna cast Dark strike.
29:18
- Dark strike Old - To 25. - Oh that's gonna hit.
29:22
- It says you invoke a dark spectral weapon in the shape
29:25
of your choosing from the realm of poison and disease
29:28
and use it as a melee weapon on a hit.
29:31
You deal 3D eight plus four force damage.
29:35
And the enemy must make a con saved
29:37
or be knocked back 10 feet,
29:40
- Uh, rolled a 17 for that con save
29:43
- It meets so she doesn't get knocked back 10 feet.
29:47
No darn. - Uh, but she does take all the damage.
29:53
So a Aileen just reaches out and as she reaches out this large long blade of
30:00
darkness stabs into, uh, Kerik as, uh,
30:05
she quivers from the, uh, stabbing motion.
30:10
And as Kerik quivers, you feel the space
30:14
around you quiver with her. - I don't like that. Uh, I like to pass toll the dead
30:22
on Kerik. So that's a wisdom saving throw.
30:28
- He rolls at 28. - Well, you know what, that passes surprisingly
30:35
as my D C's not 28.
30:37
And I go, that's upsetting.
30:40
Also upsetting that you said he 'cause you corrected me on that 'cause it's,
30:44
- Yeah. My bad. - Uh, and then as my bonus action,
30:47
I'm gonna cast sanctuary on Eileen
30:50
- Sanctuary. Sorry. What does that do for me?
30:54
- Um, yes. So anyone that wants to target you with an attack
30:58
or a harm or spell has to make a saving throw.
31:00
And if they fail, they have to target someone else and they can't hit you.
31:04
- Oh, good. - Uh, and it will protect you up
31:06
until the point in which you make an attack or cast another expel.
31:12
So there you have it. Also, I think that
31:15
this is rather annoying. - What's annoying? - That she keeps talking mostly.
31:22
That's what I find annoying. Currently. - Her voice is annoying. - Yeah, it's pretty irritating.
31:29
- And now it's amplified. Now that it's in a back, a big old body that's even worse.
31:33
Just want her to stop - Talking. Orba, you're up.
31:37
- Okay. I'm gonna hit him with the Tamar again, by the way,
31:42
just because I'm curious like when,
31:46
when Orba and, uh, Eren hit him
31:50
with their Tom weapons, we don't see,
31:53
we don't really see anything go off
31:55
of people when we hit them with Tom's thing
31:59
where he gets some of their life essence
32:01
or just like when they, when they die.
32:05
- Oh, wait, you had a crunchy potion, didn't you? - Yes, I did. - Yeah.
32:09
You see, uh, you see bits of their life essence fly off.
32:14
- Okay. Psychedelic. - It's almost like the, the skin is almost like really thick
32:21
version of a, an earthworm skin.
32:25
- Ew. - Hmm. Descriptive
32:28
- How to eat frog worms. - Uh, you got another, you got two more swings on you homie.
32:33
Yep. So you swing around with, uh, the other one.
32:37
But a tentacle flies out and smacks your, uh, simar away.
32:43
Um, as you swing around with, uh, the first simar again
32:48
and make contact for another 18 points of demos.
32:53
- And I'll round up for Josiah's children. - Appreciated. - Okay, let's go.
32:59
- And I go for another punch and I will go ahead
33:04
and use my,
33:08
I'll spend a key point here and use stunning strike with that one.
33:13
Is that con saving throw? - Uh, 31? - Uh, yeah. That beats it outta the water.
33:19
And then I'll go ahead and, uh, attack again.
33:23
- Okay. 19 does not hit
33:29
- Then that is, uh, I believe that's it for me.
33:34
- And just like last time, more tongues come out
33:36
of the lacerations on the side and lap up the brown.
33:39
Stop that <laugh>. Uh, and it heals again.
33:45
And it's going for its multi attack.
33:49
What, what kind of save does it have to make to try to attack
33:52
- Wisdom please? - Does a 15 pass? - No.
33:57
- Oh. Oh, thank God. Then it's going to bite down on you. Callum.
34:00
- Is it close enough to me? - Oh, that's right. You backed off.
34:04
Uh, then it's going to bite - It.
34:06
Wave. I will beast. - Then it's going to poopoo, then it's gonna bite Poopoo. <laugh>. It's
34:10
- Gonna poop. - It's, - Oh no. What? Hell,
34:13
- Uh, okay. - Does a 23 hit?
34:17
- Uh, yeah. Does barely
34:21
- Projectile poo - Stab?
34:23
Its, but more ma - Okay.
34:26
Uh, poo, uh, you take 23 points of damage.
34:29
Seven of 'em are psychic - Halved.
34:33
- Yes. Because of you. Mm-Hmm. <affirmative>. You're welcome.
34:36
- Um, and she did not like seeing that being halved.
34:40
So she's going to strike you again.
34:43
- Oh. Just try - It with its, uh, sickles 26 to hit
34:49
- That does, - Uh, you'd take nine points of slashing
34:52
and nine points of poison damage. - Okay. - Ow. I can't be affected by poison, I don't think.
35:00
'cause I have diamond soul. No, not that one timeless body.
35:05
No. I have defense against poison somehow for being a monk.
35:10
Purity of body. That's it. Uh, you're immune to disease and poison, so would that Yep.
35:16
- Yep. - I think it's just a poisoned condition.
35:18
- Yeah, that's what I was wondering. - No, I would count that for poison damage too,
35:23
because I mean, if you're immune to poison that it poison's not gonna damage you. So,
35:27
- Yeah. Okay. Thank you. - And then it swings its tentacles around at you again. Poo.
35:33
It really wants a piece of you. - Oh, everyone wants a piece
35:36
- Of poopoo break meal, a piece of
35:39
- That <laugh>? Uh, I can't believe I didn't think about
35:43
that before I said it. <laugh>. Alright. Uh, <laugh> does a 15 hit?
35:48
- Nope. - All right. So it misses with the tentacles.
35:52
- I do like a matrix dodge on that one.
35:55
- Oh, - Okay. All right.
36:00
Um, well, let's see if physical attacks work,
36:05
I'm gonna throw my Adam Anine dagger.
36:11
That's a 19. Ready to get physical. I should probably just go home.
36:15
- Any particular direction? - At, at at
36:20
- Not - The only one. They went there obviously. And so it was a 19, so that failed.
36:27
But I can still use sneak attack even though it wasn't successful.
36:31
We thought was little. Like, uh, 24 is what my sneak attack.
36:36
- Was that a to hit or damage? - Damage?
36:39
- Uh, she's not looking good, folks. Not looking good at all.
36:43
- She wasn't looking good before - This.
36:45
That's what I was gonna say. - We're making - Her look better.
36:49
- You - G anything else you want to do?
36:52
- Oh, um, - Anything slow
36:58
- As a bonus action. I would like to cast,
37:03
um, shadow blade.
37:08
I'm essentially making a blade out of shadow
37:11
so I can use it on my next turn. - Oh, gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. Alright. Um, alright.
37:18
Ameren, can you put the beast down
37:20
before it gets an opportunity? - I know this will be surprising.
37:26
- <laugh>. - I'd like to hit her with mylas,
37:29
my OneLA multiple times I should say. - Okay. Go ahead and try.
37:36
- 18 plus another 18.
37:39
That's 36. Total damage. Yeah.
37:44
36 damage. And then natural one on the last swing.
37:50
- Uh, fumble chart. Fumble chart.
37:53
It's time for me to pull up a fumble chart.
37:58
Um, go ahead and roll a D 100 please.
38:02
- I would love to A 21.
38:10
- Uh, you shook yourself up.
38:12
Uh, the backswing on this, uh, on your grave came across.
38:17
You swung too hard on that second swing
38:19
and you smacked yourself in the face. You are stunned for one round.
38:24
- Ouch. - All right. Now, and
38:28
- This is, this is the point of the round. You can take legendary action.
38:30
- Oh, can I, if - You Yeah, <laugh> please. If you lie
38:33
- <laugh> do I Do I have your permission now - If you want.
38:36
All in favor? You don't to All all in favor - Say, aye - Uh, nayyy,
38:41
we all vote against it. Yeah. We don't wanna - Railroad you into it.
38:46
<laugh> choo choo. We going to do this?
38:52
- I'm in danger. - <laugh>. Oh no. <laugh>.
38:58
- Aileen, I need you to make a dexterity saving throw please.
39:02
- Oh, I'm good at dexterity. 28
39:05
- Famous last words. Yeah. - So black tentacles fly up out of the ground at you.
39:10
Uh, but you managed to, you definitely managed to, uh,
39:14
dodge out of the way of them. Eh, you're, uh, Mera.
39:20
- I'm gonna poke her again. - Roll to attack, please.
39:25
- I tried. - I - Got a 12.
39:28
- Oh, that's not gonna do. Oh, how poetic. Okay.
39:32
Is anything else you want to do? - Ha. Can I hide again? - You sure can.
39:38
- All right. Goodbye. - <laugh>. - Aileen? - Yes.
39:44
- It's time to put your ant down. - I'm gonna do my best - Time
39:48
to put her out to pasture her. - Okay, I'm going, I'm gonna try
39:52
that Hop again. 22.
39:56
- 22 will hit my question is, how do you want to do this?
40:04
- I'm not entirely sure other than she gets hit in the
40:09
face with fireballs. - You launch off this fireball
40:13
and this sucker makes contact this time.
40:16
Um, and
40:19
as this fireball ignites on Tilda, you,
40:22
it smells like burnt hair. As this creature explodes
40:29
into a mass of nothingness, um,
40:33
and you feel the realm begin to implode around you,
40:39
um, you can vaguely make out where your entrance point was.
40:44
Uh, I'm gonna need everyone
40:47
to make a dexterity throw.
40:52
- Can Callum just try to get within five feet of everyone?
40:59
- Um, yeah, we'll, we'll count that towards your, uh,
41:04
we'll count that towards your dexterity roll.
41:12
- Okay. Well I rolled a natural 18 plus
41:17
3 21.
41:22
- Uh, yeah. I'll, I'll allow that. You're, you're within about 10 feet of everybody. Wow.
41:29
- Then as soon as I'm there, I'll cast word of call
41:33
and need us all back to the tower.
41:41
- You guys actually appear about six inches above the ground
41:46
in the, in the, uh, tower.
41:50
- Better than six inches into the ground. - Air - <laugh>,
41:54
- You, you all land horizontally.
41:57
And it's like you guys did a belly flop in Gore.
42:00
And not only Gore, but Gore's gore that's been left out for several days.
42:05
- Ow. - Can I fall nicely with feather fall?
42:09
I just want like, - You slowly descend into this filth.
42:13
It it feels a lot like laying down in a shallow
42:17
pool of pudding. - Less Aha. Gross.
42:25
- I don't think that blessing had anything to do with this one. What
42:28
- Did we do it? I think we did it.
42:31
- Either that or something she sneezed on us.
42:34
I don't know what all this is. - Yeah, I don't, I don't quite know, but
42:40
- I've paid That - Was eventful. - Yes. I mean, Wilder. You were great or bog. Way to go.
42:49
Mira. I saw you out there, - But did you though?
42:54
- Barely, but barely. - I had to squint. Hey, lean.
42:58
You finally got your fireball harp thing to work.
43:02
- I did. Ow - And Callum.
43:08
- Hi. - I mean, way to go. Callum <laugh>.
43:13
You, you are good at this sort of thing.
43:16
- I don't, you know, I feel like you were real specific
43:19
with everyone else and then you just kinda said you were
43:21
good at this thing to me, but I'll take it. No, I
43:23
- Say this thing to be fair. - You were great at everything.
43:27
- Yes, exactly. - Oh, well thank you. I don't think that I've often, uh, been told that
43:31
- You gave him the one and then you gave him the two
43:34
and then you were like all sorts of
43:37
- Stuff. I did, I did do a little bit of that. Yeah. I didn't do a whole lot of one and two.
43:40
That was mostly your, your bit. That's right.
43:44
- And then, um, Iran. Well, your life was magnificent.
43:51
- Yes, it is quite wonderful. - And, um, what will
44:00
- Ow - Ow what Now this tastes like artificial chocolate.
44:05
- Yeah. How you feeling? een? Are you
44:08
- Help - <laugh> yard? I your wounds Eileen.
44:14
- And so a, a as as you're casting that healing, uh,
44:20
you hear a familiar, uh, amp
44:25
and he goes, well, it looks like you did it.
44:29
I'm I'm, I'm very proud of all of you.
44:34
- Did we though? Did we actually like do it that?
44:37
- Are we sure? - Oh yeah.
44:41
- I always wanted to hear that. I feel like
44:43
that's just though I've been waiting my whole life for that phrase. - I feel like Tilda is is one of those little,
44:48
just keep coming back. We already thought we killed her once. Well
44:54
- Here's, here's the thing. Miss Aileen, uh, this moment is eternal.
45:01
You're just only experiencing it right now.
45:05
So, but that's a whole nother time thing.
45:09
- I mean, I feel like, I feel like we, we uh,
45:13
I feel very accomplished. I mean,
45:16
- I mean, I know we defeated her this time, but is she dead?
45:20
Dead? - I mean, for all intents and purposes Yes.
45:26
- I don't like the way you phrased that. What
45:28
- Does - That mean? See, that's what I'm saying. Like, something else is amiss
45:32
and um, something else is going on.
45:36
Th this can't be it. - I mean, a lot - Of people die.
45:40
Hey, can, can people die for real now? - Yes. - And like, not be eaten.
45:49
- Yes. Uh, but about that a as he's talking, you feel slightly less
45:57
enhanced, if that makes sense.
46:01
And Callum Yeah. You, you feel that feeling too.
46:05
It, it's sort of like a, it's sort of like that post
46:09
holiday feeling of, huh, - I got that feeling before the holidays given my, uh,
46:15
you know, familial situation. - But, and he goes, yeah,
46:18
you're probably feeling it right about now too.
46:21
Um, the do on away with the aspect system
46:26
now that they see the flaw on it. So, uh,
46:29
- Um, yes. Hello? I'd like to, may I,
46:32
I have a question if I could, uh, if I may.
46:34
- Okay. - Just kind of, I don't, I don't mean to sound, uh,
46:39
particularly questioning of what you're saying here.
46:42
Uh, they who, - You know, the big guy,
46:47
- Would we refer to him as they now? - You can - Just, I I've never done that.
46:53
Haven't heard you done that, but alright, carry on.
46:55
Keep going. I'll stand back here and listen the - Whole, the whole three in one
46:59
and one in three aspects sort of thing. I figured, you
47:04
- Know. Yeah. But you know, distinct, you know. - Right. But anyway, uh, so they're doing away with that.
47:10
Great. Uh, but I'm, I got one last gift I want to give out
47:14
because no now's the time that I got to do it.
47:19
Um, he looks at you or bog uh, this might surprise you a little bit.
47:26
Uh, it, it only, it only works from this point back,
47:33
but it's my time to hand my aspect hood off.
