4:06

felon. He's the one that's been arrested,

4:09

but he's not the only convicted felon.

4:15

I will say, I was thinking about this the other day,

4:18

because I got

4:20

arrested and I was in jail, and

4:23

they take your belt and everything, and I'm just

4:25

like, man, this sucks. And

4:29

that was the top of the list. The belt.

4:32

The belt. Well, and the one day I choose oversized

4:34

pants. It's one of the reasons I was

4:36

so glad I got TSA pre-checked, because it's just like, I just

4:38

want to have some dignity. I want to be able to keep

4:40

my belt on as long as I want to have my belt

4:42

on. One of the little things that

4:44

they rob you of when you normally get on a plane. So

4:46

we're sitting there, and we're sitting there

4:48

in the tank, and I'll never forget,

4:50

we're watching Deep Space Nine, the head

4:52

on the TV. And

4:55

I was telling the other guys in there, and it was

4:57

just like, what's that guy in Spencer for Heart? It was

4:59

like, yeah, he was in Spencer for Heart. So

5:03

what happened? Do you want to talk about it? I don't want

5:05

to talk about it. Okay. Is that

5:07

a cape or an ankle on here? It was a

5:09

misunderstanding. It's a misunderstanding. I

5:12

got a ticket one time that was funny,

5:14

but I wasn't arrested. I

5:16

was in Seaside in New Joyzie.

5:18

Okay. Sorry. They

5:21

have loser rules. We went

5:23

there after prom, so I was maybe 18? Yes, you did.

5:26

Maybe 17. Okay. We

5:28

all rented a house, all the kids, and the parents were kind

5:30

of like, have fun. And

5:32

we went on our own. I mean, yeah, Joe

5:35

was making a face. I'm just kind of baffled for

5:37

it. Aren't you from like upstate New York? Oh, no,

5:39

is this when you were in New York City? No,

5:41

I mean, we live like close to the city.

5:43

I'm from like downstate New York, I would say.

5:45

Okay. But we drove. We drove down to Jersey,

5:47

and- You could choose anywhere. You could choose anywhere.

5:50

You could choose anywhere. You could choose from Seaside.

5:52

Okay. You don't know anything about

5:54

the Jersey Shore after

5:56

prom situation. Oh, yeah. It's

5:58

a thing. It's a thing. one is there

6:00

all these young kids and you rent a

6:02

house and you illegally buy alcohol and then

6:04

you get wasted so my friend and I

6:06

were going to the boardwalk and we filled

6:08

up water bottles you know with vodka or

6:10

whatever we're walking up to the boardwalk to

6:12

have a night on the town and

6:15

a bike cop pulls

6:17

us over the addict let me smell

6:19

your water well he was like what's in that

6:22

and we were like water and

6:24

he goes no it's not and you're

6:26

6:34

them to bike down you're gonna outrun his

6:36

bike kick him off the bike and run but

6:39

he was like it's not let

6:41

me smell it and we're like no you're not smelling it and he was

6:43

like then then I'm gonna write you a ticket and

6:46

6:48

well why would you pour out your water bottle and

6:50

we were like to

6:53

water the sea grass yeah I know I was like is

6:55

this a riddle and then

6:59

he wrote us a ticket for drinking

7:01

7:04

so embarrassing because he like wrote it and he gave it

7:06

to us and we're like whatever

7:08

7:10

I was like we could have we could have

7:12

7:15

on a bike did they take your belt at any

7:17

7:23

got to do all of that with

7:25

a belt it's so embarrassing it took

7:27

your belt so I got it back

7:30

one time producer Francis and I

7:32

and our good friend Dave Kang

7:35

finished a night I'm telling this story Francis finish

7:39

a night of drinking at a bar in

7:41

a story I called McCann's and

7:44

oh McCann's that was our first date that was Joe

7:46

and I's first date that's so funny you go back

7:48

after that yeah I this well this is before this

7:50

was a hundred years ago this is me and the

7:52

Marvel guy that was that was our hangout we were

7:54

there like three four times a week I love McCann's

7:56

I used to give out wooden tokens you could come

7:58

back get a free drink Right, right. Anyways,

8:01

there's a whole story. Francis, as is. I

8:04

mean, we used to, the bars close at 4am

8:06

here in New York, most people know that, a

8:08

lot of people don't, and of course after drinking

8:10

all night, we weren't done at 4am, we were

8:12

like, wow, we need a little bit more. So

8:14

Francis and Dave and I, we go to a

8:16

packie or like a store and we just get

8:18

like a couple six packs, maybe a couple tall

8:20

boys, and we're

8:22

like, let's just walk to the

8:24

river and just sit on the rocks, sit on

8:26

a park bench, have a beer like adults, watch

8:29

the sunrise. So we

8:32

start walking down to Astoria Park

8:35

and the way it is, it's like you can walk

8:37

into the park to walk to the thing or you

8:39

can just walk along the street. It

8:42

takes the same amount of time. Well, it's a beautiful night,

8:44

it's 4.15 in the morning, we want

8:46

to walk through the park. So there's a cop

8:48

car sitting right there and we get maybe, what,

8:50

10 feet into the park? The

8:52

guys come out and we're like, oh no, it's

8:54

game over. This is, it's

8:56

game over. And they come in and they're like, what's going

8:58

on guys? And we're like, oh, we're just walking

9:01

back to our apartment. We're walking through

9:04

the park to walk back to our apartment. And they're like,

9:06

what do you got in the bag there? We're like, it's

9:08

alcohol, it's closed. It's all, look,

9:10

unopened, everything was unopened. It's not like

9:13

we were, we were seconds

9:15

away from opening it and drinking it

9:17

outside. But they gave

9:19

us a big fat ticket, three individual tickets.

9:21

For what? For walking through a closed park.

9:23

Yeah, you're not supposed to. Parks have curfews.

9:25

Parks have curfews. And when I say we

9:27

were like 10 feet in

9:29

the park, we could have easily just like, they could

9:31

be like, hey guys, parks closed, but nope. It

9:33

was a close stakeout all the time. They're like,

9:36

got him. Get his belt. And

9:39

it was a fat, fat ticket. These were like

9:41

multi hundred dollars at the time. I didn't have

9:43

any money. And so we went

9:45

to court to dispute it and we had a sleepover

9:47

at Dave's house. Do you remember this? We had a

9:50

sleepover because the court appearance was at like, you had

9:52

to be at the court at 6 a.m. It

9:54

was fucking crazy. And at Dave's, just a

9:56

couple months later, we went in there and we

9:58

had to like dispute The thing and were

10:00

in their together we get appointed a lawyer arms

10:03

resort to pay the ticket nine or a. It

10:05

was basically day courts and we have to sit

10:07

there and watch all these like weird quirk is

10:09

like I came up and was being tried for

10:12

hanging out in the playground without a child allowed

10:14

to do that. He said well lit it was

10:16

like I was just sitting there in the plague

10:18

on the I did. he had do that you

10:21

have to. You can't go in a playground you

10:23

have to sit outside of. It's like a little

10:25

things like that. seems like very eye opening and

10:27

then just the way it worked. I was the.

10:30

First dump the got pulled up there

10:32

10:34

10:57

10:59

11:02

11:04

11:06

I did that to take it even says the

11:08

alcohol was another to bring other ones up. You

11:10

11:12

so we got off and was i

11:14

11:16

11:19

those moments and I've had dozens was

11:21

like gonna get arrested and you know

11:23

what and if that top wanted to

11:25

land. The. Ticket. He. Just

11:27

needed to wait like eight more

11:29

minutes. Models you know you're drunk.

11:31

watch out. In until you sat

11:34

down. Rooted. In the bags little bit

11:36

and then and then you would have a a else

11:38

is. Proof that the system is so broken. Know

11:40

that this cop was waiting for people to walk

11:42

into the part to give them it's bogus tickets.

11:44

For the thirty of a month and they had to get a

11:46

grenade you went and. You went thought it which is good on

11:48

you could death people wouldn't do that and. A. cop didn't show

11:50

up i think to outwit life when a cop

11:52

and so obviously always dispute easier ways to day

11:54

but to save fuel but i was in one

11:56

the last arms i was in mccance of the

11:59

nexus guy I heard his voice not familiar and it

12:01

was MC Chris. Remember

12:03

MC Chris? Yeah from Aquitine

12:05

Hunger Force. Oh my gosh. I had

12:07

just seen him perform like down near

12:10

NYU like two weeks previous.

12:13

So I was like, are you MC Chris? I was like, yeah, yeah. And

12:16

so I talked to him for like a half hour and then

12:18

I introduced them to the Marvel guys like Pat McGrath and I

12:20

think Nick was there. And I had

12:22

to go home and I guess he just like

12:24

proceeded to pitch them really weird Spider-Man ideas for

12:26

the whole rest of the night. That rocks. Mackenzie's

12:31

great. They have a little pool table in the back

12:33

but the walls were too thin. Yeah. Like

12:35

if you had to take a shot from the side,

12:37

you have to use a tiny little stick. Yeah, tiny

12:40

little sticks like just for that. There were two tables

12:42

back there. I used to go there and play pool

12:44

with Land Keith. And

12:46

we were at like the top of our pool game. So

12:49

this is when we'd actually like try to beat people and stay

12:51

on tables. Is this place still here?

12:53

No, I think it's just. No, I think so. I

12:55

was gonna say let's go. Our old office, which is,

12:57

you know, a stone's thrower from here, you could walk

12:59

there. It was about a block away or two blocks

13:01

away. We never really went there. I think it closed.

13:03

But. Oh man. If it

13:05

didn't, we should definitely go. We should. Yeah. They

13:08

have dark, disturbingly closed to where people sit at

13:10

the bar. Closed. No. I

13:12

knew it. No. No.

13:15

Oh. What a punch in the

13:17

wiener. That place was great. Dumber.

13:19

Yeah, it's a really good bar. I

13:22

mean, it was really kind of a shitty dive

13:25

bar but that's what made it great. A great

13:27

dive. A great dive. A great dive. I had

13:29

food. They served food. Good staff. Good staff. Great

13:31

staff. Let's go to their website. What

13:35

are you gonna learn there? If they're open or not. No,

13:37

the web, the web's head's dead. Server

13:41

is dead. Wow. That's what happened.

13:44

That's what it was. You can't run anything

13:46

fees. Killed the bar. Everyone knows

13:48

you can't run a good dive without a classy website. Were

13:51

you ever afraid that you were gonna get arrested and it didn't

13:53

happen? Yeah, yeah, I was.

13:56

I think I told this story. I might've

13:58

told this story already but. Shocker,

14:02

I was a good kid in high

14:04

school and I never drank a drop

14:07

and never smoked any drugs or

14:11

even came close. My friends

14:13

and I were big fans of bowling and diner.

14:15

You didn't even have a man name until you

14:17

were in college. I'm not surprised. You

14:19

let it free. I didn't have a taco until I

14:21

was in college. You grew up in 1950s Milwaukee? That's

14:24

kind of what it was like. In

14:27

my sophomore year

14:30

of high school, I did the musical for

14:32

the first time. I went out for the

14:34

musical and I did the show. What show

14:36

was it? It was Anything Goes. Who

14:38

did you play? Except for number two. I was

14:40

with Porter number two. Except for number two. I actually...

14:43

Yeah, I know the same thing. Didn't Cole Porter write

14:45

Anything Goes? Wrote the music. Wrote the music. Ah.

14:48

Which version of the book did you do? So you played Cole Porter?

14:51

This isn't relevant to the story of the thing. This is the thing.

14:53

Let's move on. So anyway, very quickly... Did

14:55

you do the 1987 revision? Damn it Matthew!

14:57

Damn it Matthew! Not about that! Not about

14:59

that! I'm curious. Make

15:02

your own podcast! Make your

15:04

own podcast! So

15:08

I was invited

15:10

to the cast party at

15:12

a house in Northeast Philly, which was

15:14

like a rough neighborhood. And

15:17

I asked my parents, can I go to the cast

15:19

party? And I'm like a young sophomore. I'm like 15.

15:23

And my parents are like,

15:25

okay, alright, he's growing up.

15:27

His friend's gonna... He's getting in a car

15:29

with a senior that's gonna drive him into

15:32

the city, to this cast party. So

15:34

I go to the cast party, I get

15:36

downstairs, and the first thing that I see

15:38

are rubber made trash cans just filled with

15:40

ice and beer. And I was like... Star

15:44

was born. Like I did not see it coming. I

15:49

was like, oh my gosh. And then I saw this girl that

15:51

I kind of liked in my class, and

15:53

she was super talented. And she played an amazing

15:55

voice. She played... An

15:58

entertainer. I can't remember. She

16:00

did have like a lead even as like a

16:02

sophomore. Oh, Parker? And no, no. And

16:04

I went, I saw her like just grab a beer, like

16:09

not even thinking about it, grab a beer, crack it, start drinking.

16:12

I was like completely

16:14

shocked, completely shocked. My

16:16

friends and I don't touch it, we're just like

16:18

having a good time, hanging out like, ah yeah,

16:20

this is like McD was there. Popping to YouTube.

16:22

Yeah, who just like. Who did McD play? He

16:26

played Lord Evil in Oakley. Of course

16:28

he did. And

16:30

we, and within 30 minutes, like,

16:33

cocks, like somebody like yells down the

16:36

stairs in the basement and

16:38

people just like start running out of the

16:40

house, we're like, oh, okay, oh. And

16:42

we start just following people. Kids are spooling out of

16:45

this house and running out over the yards and in

16:47

the grass or anything and then we're like trying to

16:49

like duck behind into another block and we run down

16:51

this block and it was me and like two or

16:53

three of my buddies and we just

16:55

like start walking and we're like, where the fuck are we

16:57

gonna go? Like we need a ride that we got driven

17:00

here by one of the seniors. So we're

17:02

gonna have to like loop around and as we're

17:04

like trying to loop around, it's like whoop, whoop

17:06

in front of us. And then the car, the

17:08

cop car stops, headlights in our eyes, can't see

17:10

anything, just see the silhouette of the figure, like

17:12

get out of the driver's side, flashlight on our

17:14

face, all right guys, stand over by the edge,

17:16

blah, blah, blah, walks over. So

17:18

what's going on, who's been drinking, blah, blah, blah, and like

17:21

looked at us and I mean, it took like no time

17:23

at all for him to realize that we were losing.

17:27

I hadn't touched a drop and he was just

17:29

like half laughing and was like, all right, let

17:31

me give you guys a warning, all right, blah,

17:34

blah, blah. So I did not get in any

17:36

trouble, didn't get a ticket. And the first thing

17:38

I did when I got home was woke up

17:40

my parents and was like, I'm so sorry, I

17:42

almost got arrested. Oh my God.

17:44

Wow, you're such a loser. You didn't even get in trouble,

17:47

you were afraid that the cop was gonna come back and

17:49

I just say, you know. I was afraid somebody in school

17:51

was gonna say that party got busted, was beer at the

17:53

party, would get back to my parents and then they'd fucking

17:56

crash my ass for not telling them there

17:58

was beer at the party. sweet because

18:00

cast parties in high school

18:03

musical or plays notorious for people

18:05

just getting fucked up

18:07

like waste it like the craziest

18:09

party you'll ever see is like a musical cast

18:11

party yeah I never knew at cast

18:13

parties like where why the crew was always

18:15

going outside into the woods and then never

18:20

gone I did not so

18:25

much fun yeah I was

18:27

I was the same way I was basically

18:30

like oh all those those football players like

18:32

they probably all go out and get wasted

18:34

everything's like but not these show these artists

18:37

they're all completely and I was just like

18:39

holy shit like all the seniors were just

18:41

getting trash like it was

18:43

a very eye-opening experience I used to host

18:46

the cast parties in high school my parents

18:48

were cool parents and they would be

18:50

like if you're gonna drink do it

18:52

here and that was their whole role Wow

18:54

the in my high school eventually

18:56

the the parents started hosting the cast

18:58

parties yeah the parents were also there they had like

19:01

the parents at a party yeah so then there was

19:03

like there was no there was no drinking oh I

19:05

thought they were cool parents I remember once

19:07

we're trying to figure out a place to host host

19:09

the cast party and look at Casa

19:12

I was like I could ask my mom and

19:14

they're like oh you think your mom like to do

19:17

is like no I can axe or kill her with

19:19

an axe the only way that you're looking for well

19:21

how many cast parties have you been to I was

19:23

gonna say I've never

19:28

been in theater and I'm also not

19:30

about to admit to any potential law

19:33

breaking on on the record mm-hmm

19:35

sure the statute of limitations well

19:38

I don't know if we're gonna break any

19:40

laws but stick around after this episode for

19:43

the episode 23 cast party that I'm really

19:45

excited oh my goodness instead we'll just take

19:47

a quick break this

19:55

show is sponsored by better help I've

19:57

been thinking a lot lately about how I

20:00

mean, it's already hard to

20:02

maintain relationships with people in the world,

20:05

not just with your significant other, but

20:07

with friends and your family,

20:09

especially as you move apart and then

20:11

especially as the pandemic separated us all

20:13

and we were very slow to kind

20:15

of come back together in person. It's

20:18

been hard for me with my friendships, you know,

20:20

you have to take active steps to make sure

20:22

you're working on them and keeping them healthy and

20:24

keeping them fresh. A common misconception

20:27

about relationships is that they have to be easy

20:29

to be right. But sometimes the best ones happen

20:31

when both people just put in the work to make them great. Therapy

20:34

can be a place to work through the

20:36

challenges you face in all your relationships, whether

20:38

with friends, your colleagues, your

20:40

significant other, anyone. Therapy

20:43

isn't just for people who have experienced major

20:45

trauma, it can be for

20:47

everyone. I always say this, but I'll

20:49

say it again. I think people should get

20:51

the help they need. Therapy can be helpful

20:53

for learning positive coping skills or how to

20:56

set boundaries, empowers you to be the best

20:58

version of yourself, all of which feeds

21:00

into serving those relationships and keeping them

21:02

healthy. If you're thinking of

21:33

get this episode over with so we can get to that

21:35

cast party. You

21:38

guys are inside a, you know,

21:40

sort of a tree. Horrible nightmare.

21:42

Horrible nightmare tree in Nighthold.

21:44

What did you think Nighthold was going to be? Fun

21:47

day stuff? A resort. A resort?

21:49

Nighthold resort. At all-inclusive. Formerly Nighthold

21:52

resort, family fun. No,

21:54

you have entered this realm, the first world. You're

21:56

still not even quite sure what that means. It's

21:58

a world that is ever. changing,

22:01

mutable, constantly like protean in nature

22:03

kind of shaped by its inhabitants,

22:05

its most powerful inhabitants, while also

22:08

like kind of crossing over into

22:10

the material world as well. Everything

22:12

just sort of going back and

22:14

forth, overlapping and turning

22:16

in on itself. And when you get inside this

22:19

tree, or you don't even get inside, you get

22:21

up to the tree, you already fight a creature

22:23

that is kind of warping reality and playing upon

22:25

your fears. You go outside and

22:27

you fight these like childlike tooth

22:29

fairies, where it's like something taken from

22:31

the nightmares of children. And

22:34

then we end last week's episode with you walking

22:36

into a room where there's a female centaur,

22:38

something taken from the nightmares

22:40

of buggles. I was

22:43

saying, he's hiding in the

22:45

doorway because it's a

22:47

combination of like a horse, which we know he doesn't

22:50

like. And this woman would

22:53

possibly remind him of his mistress.

22:55

He used to like maltreat him

22:57

and everything. And so

22:59

it is like this weird kind of dream

23:02

nightmare combination of fears. Yeah, and talk

23:04

about a tutel, which you spoke of

23:06

back in episode one. This is a

23:08

large creature. She's huge

23:10

and resplendent in her charred,

23:13

scarred armor, wearing a bleached,

23:16

skinless head of a horse and

23:18

sort of a frightening helm, a

23:20

long flowing green cloak that covers

23:22

her horse parts.

23:25

And then if that wasn't enough,

23:27

there's a floating, muscled

23:29

circle full of blades in a

23:31

single eye. They needed to

23:33

add a sentry. I

23:36

don't know what's going on here.

23:38

This doesn't to me feel like

23:40

a winnable sort of combat situation,

23:42

a traditional combat situation with the

23:44

size and at least for the

23:46

artwork, the apparent martial skill of

23:49

this character. So I don't know if

23:51

this is like some fishies going on here. Well, obviously some

23:53

fish is going on, but if it's going

23:55

to be like not really resolve as a

23:57

weird about that muscle, the floating eye. You

24:00

want my theory? Oh, yeah? Yes, please. I think

24:02

the centaur is an illusion. Or a figment or

24:04

it doesn't really exist. I was

24:06

going to say because she also was like,

24:08

I've killed all the enemies of Kenepo

24:10

and they line the room, all these

24:12

skulls. And so it was like, OK,

24:15

so it's a level 37 centaur woman

24:17

who is

24:19

going to hit us level two players. Right. And

24:21

then also the basic concept, I think we talked

24:23

about this after we stopped this episode, it was

24:25

like the basic concept of your chosen by Kenepo

24:29

to see if you're worthy, blah, blah, blah. You

24:31

come here and just to kill you. I

24:33

mean, maybe this is a test.

24:36

Maybe if we get her down a

24:38

certain number of hit points, she's like,

24:40

oh, right. You're worthy. You can meet

24:42

Kenepo or something like that possibly. But

24:44

it's also a callback to that worthiness

24:46

thing that everyone kept mentioning. Which then

24:48

made me think, I wonder

24:52

if the three main people that we know

24:54

as missing are like came exactly

24:57

here and died in this

24:59

room. Or a burner or whatever. Burner?

25:03

Burner now? Or were we supposed to do something

25:05

in the first room to make ourselves worthy? Magpie

25:07

Mapleton or whatever her name was. It

25:10

was like, Patrick. Have

25:13

you ever had pebblesworth? Patrick Pebblesworth was

25:15

the woman that got. OK, wait, hold

25:17

on. We are saying it better now.

25:19

Joe is not the note-taking. She

25:24

was the one that her cart got

25:26

destroyed. And she was killed back on

25:28

the way between seven arches. I thought she

25:30

was missing. There's the woman whose family. Maybelline.

25:33

I believe that was what he was going

25:35

for, Magpie Maybelline. Magpie Maybelline. And then

25:37

there's Varna, the wooden septum piercing oak steward

25:40

that Malkia was looking for. And Henry Buckett.

25:42

Henry Buckett. That's what I mean. Yeah, Henry

25:44

Buckett. But the idea is that we started to

25:47

see that each

25:49

of these people seem to be being led

25:51

somewhere. And we feel

25:53

like maybe we're also being led somewhere with the sign

25:55

outside the door and the bird in the room and

25:57

everything. Is everybody being led

25:59

here? Are there skulls on this wall?

26:01

Or were they considered worthy? Probably.

26:04

Or are they the hunks of meat behind us? Exactly.

26:07

There are hunks of meat. There are

26:10

skulls all over the place.

26:12

She claims to be victims, enemies

26:15

of Kniepo. Then she

26:17

goes on about her former life, where

26:19

she would judge from the

26:22

shadows, learn all about her prey,

26:24

and learn everything she could before

26:26

finally taking their life and regrets

26:28

that she won't have time to

26:30

do that beforehand, but promises you

26:33

afterwards she'll take her time with

26:36

what's left, unless you're

26:38

worthy. Let's roll for initiative

26:40

and find out. All right, so yeah. Roll,

26:42

roll, roll, roll. Well, that's the other thing

26:44

that really bothers me. Oh, good. It's

26:47

like, is it a puzzle, right? Is

26:50

it like, oh, no, you have to prove

26:52

you're worthy beyond just fighting? I don't know.

26:55

It bothers me. This is going to

26:57

be an interesting test. Kate looks upset as

26:59

usual after she's rolled dice. Ah! Ah!

27:02

Ah! Ah! What

27:04

did you get after? 19

27:08

for after, not too shoddy. Zipper.

27:12

Do you adjust it when you do a natural one? You

27:15

do. You still get your bonus.

27:17

Five. Five, yes. Now, if you

27:19

had a minus to your initiative, you wouldn't have a

27:21

negative two, but you always add. So five, very nice.

27:24

Tip of the hat to your five.

27:27

For the remove. 12,

27:31

I mean, just terrible. There are feats you

27:33

can take. Stone cold terrible. There's no fee

27:35

you can take to make you roll above

27:37

a 10, though. That's true. That's just the

27:39

gods. Talitha. 15

27:43

for Talitha, right down Main Street. Bugle.

27:46

20 for Bugle. Oh! How

27:50

interesting that Bugle's rolls a

27:52

20 as he stands

27:54

cowering in the doorway. I didn't even think in the

27:56

moment because I was too busy embodying

27:58

Captain Salah. I could see that.

28:01

Yeah, I was really into it. Um... You

28:03

were in the zone. A rare new voice.

28:05

A little chewing. It was pretty... Yeah, it's

28:07

a new one. A rare new one. Yeah,

28:09

not from this well and this... Ehhhhh. Was

28:12

it imagining the hindquarters of a horse as you're

28:14

the lower half of your body that did it?

28:17

Just imagining the voice of a sick sadistic boy.

28:19

Was it the result of embodying the rear half

28:21

of a horse over your entire life? Hey now!

28:23

Hey! Hey! Hey! You know what, just for that,

28:25

you go first. Okay. You're standing terrified in the

28:27

doorway. What I was going to say is I

28:30

didn't even think about how like this is your worst

28:32

nightmare. Yeah. I'm actually going to give

28:34

myself the frightened one condition. So... Oh...

28:36

Because it's... Okay, you have done this

28:38

in the past? Anytime there's a horse.

28:41

Yeah. And especially now, I mean, I think it's...

28:43

Well yeah, I thought of the worst... I didn't

28:46

think of the mistress... Is

28:48

the mistress being like combined with

28:50

a horse in the image of

28:52

this woman? That's... Yeah. That's terrifying.

28:54

Eeee, okay. Okay. So... Oh,

28:56

I like his little frightened condition. Yeah. That's

28:59

wrong. So he's almost...

29:02

Like... Wedding himself as he

29:04

like comes into the room to... Like

29:07

he forces himself to come into the room so

29:09

he can get a full view of

29:12

this thing. And he's like...

29:14

Aaaaah! And he lifts his

29:16

little finger and... Phew!

29:18

Ray of frost. Ray...

29:20

Or frostbite. Frostbite. Frostbite.

29:24

That is a 21 to hit. 21

29:26

is a hit. Okay.

29:30

Okay. Oh man. Even

29:34

the slightest delay on that gave me heartburn. That

29:38

is six points of cold damage. Six

29:41

points of cold

29:43

damage. Very good. Was that

29:45

your final action? Yeah,

29:47

because I had to move and then that was two

29:49

actions. Very well. Moving right along

29:51

it is... Oh wait. What

29:53

am I thinking? As

29:56

you step into the room and stand there and

29:58

face down this horrible thing, the muster

30:00

of the courage to fire a spell

30:02

at your greatest fear. But

30:05

at the same moment, that creepy little cord

30:08

of muscle and blades, the

30:11

eye turns on you and you

30:13

feel, not only it's gaze, but

30:15

you start to feel its blades

30:17

all around you cutting into your

30:20

skin. Give me a will save. Oh

30:22

no. Ew! Alright,

30:25

that's not too bad. That

30:27

is a will save? That's

30:29

a 20. 20,

30:32

okay. So you feel these things kind

30:34

of creeping into your body, making you

30:36

feel even more frightened than you already

30:38

are, but you're able to like stand

30:40

firm and push down those fears. It

30:43

is Asa's turn. If

30:45

I move and jump over the table, is

30:48

it, do I need to do any checks or anything

30:50

or can I just kind of hop on the table and hop off? Um.

30:54

If I have like an extra five feet to go up

30:56

the table. I would say that you can just go up

30:58

and over. It's not like a, uh, there's a centaur sized

31:00

table. It's a table meant for all of you. Let's not

31:02

hold you over the calls for this here. Alright, so Asa is

31:05

going to move, first

31:07

action. Second

31:09

action, I'm going to use one of

31:11

my focus spells, Force Fang.

31:14

Force Fang? Yeah. I briefly

31:16

turned my attack into pure force to bypass

31:18

my opponent's defenses. I'm going to attack the

31:20

little ball. Little blade

31:22

ball. Attack the blade ball. Alright,

31:25

so you just come down. I like to imagine that

31:27

you're like using the energy from

31:29

hopping off the table to slice into

31:32

it. It's cool. It's like basically

31:34

my katana becomes a spike of pure force. It

31:36

just like magically changes. Amazing. So

31:38

let me. That wouldn't have been good against

31:40

the swarm. The Force Fang automatically deals 1d4

31:42

plus one. I don't even think I need to

31:45

make an attack. Force

31:47

Fang? Potentially. Okay. Is

31:49

there anything you're not... It's a spell,

31:51

obviously. Force Fang automatically deals, targets one

31:53

creature. To force, to bypass your opponent's

31:55

defenses, choose a target within your reach

31:57

or within reach of a melee weapon.

32:00

If you can use Spell Strike with a ranged

32:02

weapon, you can target a creature in your first

32:04

range increment, for instance. You transform your weapon around

32:06

in time to a spike of pure fuel force,

32:08

replacing all its normal statistics and abilities. The

32:12

Force Fang automatically... ...deals

32:14

1d4 plus 1 Force Fangs to

32:16

a target. That

32:19

is... I... I don't

32:21

believe you. I don't know. I'm trying

32:24

to see. You briefly turned your... Yeah, I mean,

32:26

it is a Focus Spell, which is a limited

32:28

resource. It's not something you can spam. It also

32:30

decreases your Dermot. Yeah, it's basically like a... What

32:34

you would call it, a magic missile from your fist.

32:36

Yeah. Yeah. You gotta go with this. Yeah, alright, great.

32:38

You sacrifice the damage. Yeah.

32:41

No, you can Spell Strike with it. I can

32:43

Spell Strike, but I'm not going to just

32:45

for action economy. I move. This only costs

32:47

one action. And then for my next

32:49

action, you'll see what I do. Alright,

32:52

so... Let's see, 1d4, it's

32:54

also not a ton of damage. Okay.

32:56

Max damage, though. Five points of damage. Five

32:59

points of force damage... Buffets,

33:02

this little gross fear.

33:05

Okay. And then with my final action,

33:07

I go into my Arcane Cascade, because

33:09

if I use one of my spells or I cast a

33:11

spell, I can do that. So, one more action. I

33:14

move my foot back, and now I'm in my Arcane

33:16

Cascade. Okay. Alright,

33:18

so that's the end

33:20

of my turn. Okay. You, standing right

33:22

next to the thing, start to feel the same

33:25

strangeness of its blades against your skin.

33:27

If not unlike what Bugle's felt, even

33:29

though it is not physically touching you,

33:32

give me a will save. I

33:35

don't like that it can do it multiple times. What?

33:37

It can just do it to anybody over and over

33:39

and over again? Just an aura situation? 15,

33:43

you are frightened one by

33:45

this unsettling feeling. Yeah, maybe

33:48

it's an aura then, I don't know. Sharp blades

33:50

just pressing against your skin, even

33:52

though nothing is touching you. It

33:54

gives you the frightened condition. Okay.

33:57

Frightened Uno. It is now kept in

33:59

the cell. Last turn and

34:01

you are right there.

34:05

However, I am considering

34:08

doing... You wouldn't hit

34:10

a girl, would you? She's a girl. Pulling

34:16

out on the stop. As

34:18

if that looked quietly. You wouldn't hit another

34:21

lady, would you? Hearing the way Troy tells

34:23

it, he's had dozens of encounters with the

34:25

police. He's a very unsavory character. You

34:27

don't know what he'll do. I'm the bad boy of

34:29

the bunch. I've just done a

34:31

lot of dumb peeing on the street. Sometimes

34:35

you gotta go. Alright,

34:37

here's what happens. I

34:39

am going to... Do you have an Attack of Opportunity?

34:42

No. Okay. She

34:44

kind of disengages from you and

34:49

runs, like starts... Like I said, her

34:51

hooves her up and she comes down

34:53

to the ground and starts galloping and

34:55

gallops through buggles, Brother Rameus, Zephyr and

34:57

Talitha, ending up on the other side

35:00

of Talitha, everybody roll a reflex. So

35:02

she destroys the table. She destroys that

35:04

edge of the table there and tramples

35:06

all. Like she runs around a path

35:08

like around the table. She runs... She

35:11

runs very consciously only to throw the

35:13

little bit. No, she just

35:15

ran through the top portion there. But

35:17

yeah, she strides up to double

35:20

its speed, moving through the spaces of

35:22

creatures of a listed size, trampling you.

35:25

So give me a reflex there. I

35:28

hate this! I

35:34

mean, there's nothing that can be done. There's

35:37

nothing that can be done when you are me. You

35:39

did good. You did

35:41

bad. But you roll. I fumbled,

35:44

most likely. What was the

35:46

actual result? I'm trying to consider tapping

35:48

it. Mat, yo! Okay. Okay.

35:55

God! What

36:00

did you not take? I'll just take

36:02

it. It's 9. 9, okay. And what

36:04

did you get? 22.

36:06

22. And Zeph? 21. 21. And... buckles.

36:12

I have a question. Yes. Is

36:14

a natural one bad? Oh!

36:18

Yes. You have

36:20

a bottle cap, don't you? I do. I think I'm

36:22

going to exchange a bottle cap. So

36:24

that I might re-roll. That is a good

36:27

use. I'll use... I've

36:30

said cap. 16.

36:32

16. Okay. Fail,

36:35

not critical. Pass. Pass.

36:41

Fail, not critical. It was right on the

36:43

line! It was right on the

36:45

line! So, you guys are going to take half

36:47

damage. You two are going to take full.

36:49

You two being buggles. And

36:52

brother Rameus. Okay.

36:56

It is going to be 9

36:58

points of damage to

37:00

buggles and Rameus 4 points

37:02

of damage to... Ah, damn. the

37:06

others. Zephyr and Talitha. And,

37:08

you know, badass move

37:10

to be able to do that. But that took all

37:12

3 of my actions. So, now it is as

37:16

I've listed in the initiative gross

37:18

blade balls turn. Gross blade ball.

37:22

Gross blade ball. Old

37:24

gross blade ball is just standing right

37:26

next to a little wolf lady.

37:32

Old gross blade ball. Blade

37:34

ball is my father's. Please,

37:36

old. So

37:38

you see it first of all start to glow. Like

37:41

little pieces that you cut away from it start kind

37:43

of like re-stitching itself on the ball. And

37:46

then it is Oh man, so

37:48

many fun things to do here. Let's do... Alright,

37:52

what it's going to do is to

38:00

fly through you and

38:03

as it does like cut

38:06

at your skin so it like flies through

38:08

you and I need a

38:11

reflex save and just like it basically like

38:13

a spinning blade tries

38:15

to whir and slice through you.

38:17

Oh boy. That's going

38:20

to be 15. 15

38:22

is a fail so a couple things are

38:24

going to happen. First thing

38:27

is you're going to take 3 points of

38:29

slashing damage and then you're also bleeding. You

38:35

will take 1d4 bleed at the

38:37

end of your turn but you know maybe you'll

38:39

flat check away from it and you'll live forever.

38:43

That was its first action and

38:45

then that was two

38:47

actions actually and then for its third action

38:49

because you're right there I'm going

38:51

to cast a spell with a range

38:54

of touch which only cost me one

38:56

action. A ball? Yup. Go

38:59

ahead and give me a basic fortitude

39:01

save. So brutal. Oh

39:03

no. No you didn't. Okay.

39:09

11 okay that is just a fail so you

39:11

will take 7 points of

39:13

negative damage. Oh my

39:15

god. Ow. So

39:17

you're like bleeding it cuts its way

39:20

through you cuts your skin over you

39:22

see your white fur like blood

39:24

go across the wall and spread down your

39:26

fur. What's the bleed number? 1d4.

39:30

And then it like touches you it like

39:32

leans its body against you one of its

39:35

muscly cord touches you and harms you for

39:37

7 points of negative damage. I

39:39

hate this thing. And now it

39:41

is Talitha's turn. Talitha you are

39:43

standing directly in front of this

39:45

monstrous horrible centaur.

39:47

Have we ever fought a centaur on

39:50

here? This is a first. It's a

39:52

dual hand with a dual hand centaur

39:54

like but this is the first real

39:57

centaur. I don't believe I think it's

39:59

the first. Alright, we have a couple of items

40:01

of business. Okay, please. Item

40:03

number one. I texted him at Deeds,

40:05

but I found out he played Lord Evil and Locally.

40:07

Oh my God! His response was,

40:09

I totally did. That was a very fun part to

40:12

play. He's

40:15

right up his alley. I

40:18

wish I could see photos. I know, me too.

40:20

You have photos? You have kinds of photos? Nope.

40:23

Moving along. Now I'm going to text

40:25

Mr. O'Brien. Mr. O'Brien. You

40:29

know your son almost got arrested. You should see me.

40:32

I'm in a suit with a fedora

40:34

on, running up to the ship to

40:37

ask Hope Harcourt and whatever. Reno Sweeney.

40:40

Reno Sweeney questions, because

40:42

they're famous. And I look like I am

40:44

11 years old. I

40:47

look like an 11 year old. No questions.

40:49

My voice had not even changed. That's

40:52

crazy. I did not

40:55

specify during the healing that happened at the

40:57

end of last episode that I was

40:59

holding my rapier now. Would it be fair to say

41:02

that I had my rapier out when we left and

41:04

entered this scary room? Absolutely. With the

41:06

exception of Zebra, who we talked about last week, like

41:08

you're not quite sure if the bow is in or

41:10

out, and you actually explicitly said bow is stowed, you're

41:12

always going to have your rapier out. You're not going

41:14

to waste an action to draw it. Okay, good. I

41:17

will devise a strategy. Okay. Should

41:19

I attack this thing? And not take the

41:21

attack. Oh no!

41:23

Natural three. Come, come. Instead,

41:26

I will then take my free

41:28

recall knowledge. Okay. What

41:30

would you like me to roll? Arcanas. This

41:32

is going to be arcana or nature.

41:34

Or an apical board. Natural 20. Oh!

41:38

There we go. It is an

41:40

illusion. All

41:42

right, so Captain Salah. Ha

41:45

ha ha ha. All

41:47

right, so you know that centaurs are

41:50

their hunters and trackers. And it appears

41:52

that she was hunting and tracking prey,

41:54

like some sort of serial killer. So

41:58

this is the type of company, can be bought. keeps

42:00

just cold heartless killers in terms of

42:02

her ability she has a shield so

42:04

she can always use that reaction to

42:06

shield block which will boost her AC

42:09

you already have seen trample come out

42:11

beyond that you don't feel like you

42:14

know centaurs have the ability to

42:17

cast spells you don't feel like she

42:19

may be able to cast spells how

42:22

with opportunity yeah you

42:24

don't think they have attack of opportunities she

42:27

looks just like a warrior that is going to

42:29

use physical attacks against you that

42:31

deal pretty significant damage is there any

42:33

kind of bond with her and the

42:36

old label nothing in your memory connects

42:38

the two of them so this seems

42:40

to be a union forged

42:42

out of necessity or something

42:45

story related that you wouldn't

42:47

know okay all right and

42:49

sometimes always are accompanied by

42:51

a muscle blade ball you

42:55

don't remember reading this okay all

42:57

right Talitha is going to get

42:59

out of this space especially

43:02

since now we know that doesn't have a tank of opportunity

43:04

okay so she

43:06

will double move up to the north of the room

43:08

to kind of give

43:10

us another angle here yeah

43:12

and she goes up towards

43:15

the hallway that leads to the north maybe

43:17

one more square to give us a little bit of

43:19

an angle spread us out from

43:21

another stop another one of those tramples from happening

43:24

I share all that information with the party

43:26

and that is my turn okay and not

43:28

unlike buggles and after you to feel the

43:31

eye and blade of this thing on you

43:33

like it's all around you even though it's

43:35

20 feet away give me a will save

43:41

90 17 for a 24 you're all

43:43

right you were able to fight

43:46

against its fear effect it is brother rameous

43:48

this term brother rameous you're 20 feet away

43:50

from this thing buggles is behind you to

43:52

your left and Zephyr is standing straight in

43:54

front of him what do you do yeah

43:57

I just don't there's just like way

44:00

to avoid this trample thing because

44:02

you can just run right through. So he

44:04

is going to...

44:08

Oh man. He's

44:12

going to also move up to the north. Sorry, I didn't need to

44:14

move around Buggles.

44:18

I wanted to get up to

44:22

here behind Asta. And then he is going

44:24

to... Yeah, he can do that. And then

44:26

he will... Did anybody

44:29

recall knowledge on the muscle ball? No. He will...

44:37

He'll recall

44:39

knowledge on the muscle ball. Okay. That is going to be religion.

44:41

Do you have a

44:43

good religion? Or any other

44:45

applicable lore? Yeah,

44:48

yeah, sorry, sorry. Knowledge blade ball. I was

44:50

totally... If my mind was... He's knowledge sonic the headshot.

44:52

Yes, religion on

44:57

the ball. Yeah, religion on the ball.

44:59

Sort of like undead creatures? What's this thing? Like

45:01

a... Now the leaf. It's been formed by the flesh of the

45:04

other... Oh yeah. The weapons of

45:08

the fall. Maybe, yeah. Alright, that is a

45:10

24. Also the derm... Sermon. Epiderm. Epiderm. Alright,

45:15

24. It's pretty good.

45:18

I can tell you this is a creature known

45:20

as an augur. It tells

45:23

her what is good and what isn't to

45:26

do. It is specifically known as a Velstruck

45:28

augur. It is something that

45:30

is native to the shadow plane. Just

45:33

knots of sinewy muscle and blades

45:35

and bloody metal. But

45:38

yeah, just like the spell auguried

45:40

has that... That's like what its

45:42

power is. The augury

45:44

goes back to original D&D, right? Yeah,

45:46

that's one of the spells of

45:49

magic user spells from... I think it was magic

45:51

user spells back in the original Player's Handbook. Was

45:53

it wheel and woe back then or is that

45:55

a Pathfinder? I can't remember. Yeah. Because the way

45:57

it lives in First Edition and Second Edition. I don't think I'm...

46:00

is wheel and woe. I think. Good

46:02

question. You would, you would like,

46:04

you look into the future and you would either

46:06

know that the question you're asking would lead to

46:09

a wheel or woe. Yeah. Same

46:11

exact thing with this. That's kind of its jam.

46:13

So you know it can cast spells like

46:16

that but you've also seen it

46:18

cast a harmful spell against Asta.

46:22

That thing that's hurting everyone is an

46:24

aura that takes effect at the end

46:26

of your turn if you're still standing

46:29

within its range

46:31

which extends pretty much the

46:33

whole. If you get on the outskirts

46:35

of the room you might be able to get away from it but it's pretty

46:38

big. And

46:41

that's all I'm going to tell you.

46:44

Okay and then he's going to do

46:47

battle medicine on Asta. Oh thank you.

46:49

An attempt to patch her

46:51

up. I

46:54

can't remember if

46:56

that stops the bleeding. I can't

46:59

remember. But we're going to attempt it

47:01

here. I could just straight up fail. I mean sucks.

47:03

No I don't. I succeed

47:06

on a battle medicine for

47:08

Asta and

47:10

you get nine hit points back.

47:12

Nice. Very helpful.

47:14

Thank you. Okay. Alright so

47:16

let's find out if that does. There's

47:18

no way to find out. It's, I

47:20

mean unless I'm going to start reading

47:22

boards. There's a medicine check. Well yeah

47:24

medicine checks can stop. Oh that's right.

47:26

Yeah. Right. Alright so I'll

47:28

just do that instead. First aid. Yes that is it.

47:31

And oh no it's two actions. Well

47:34

why don't you heal me and then do it on the next turn? Because

47:37

I could still use those hit boards. You could also just

47:39

save on it. You could get the flat set. Preserving

47:41

action. Yeah so I don't have the actions.

47:44

I moved, I did the recall knowledge. I

47:46

only have one action left so I'll battle

47:48

medicine for now. Thank you. That's

47:50

still very helpful. Yeah but you're still bleeding.

47:52

Yeah. Alright cool. Great. Go

47:55

ahead and give me a will save as you try to.

47:57

Come on Ramius. It's the one thing you're supposed to be

47:59

really. Reasonably good end off the fear

48:02

21 21 you're all right all right

48:05

For the rabies ramies ending around

48:07

as always do not tell you

48:11

You know what it is kind of like always For

48:15

the bolus as they call you so I

48:17

did say that I put my bow away Or I

48:20

didn't have it out when I was

48:22

walking into this room, and you're standing 15 feet

48:24

away from this Yeah, sure with no

48:26

one between you so I Don't

48:29

like this ball. I don't think anyone does and I want

48:31

to try to take that over So

48:34

I'm gonna take out my bow Go into

48:37

my nastic Archer stance and try to fill

48:39

a real blows it within my volley I

48:42

still feel like it's worth it to try to hit it because then

48:44

I could also try to stun it Maybe

48:48

if it's not you know you into mental or

48:50

enough If it's

48:52

not higher level right oh right right and

48:55

capacity okay, all right, so it's gonna be

48:57

a plus six That's the 20 to hit on the

48:59

first one yep, right all right buddy get

49:01

it get all the second one And then

49:03

do the damage to the second one Is

49:08

a natural seven? I don't think that hits like

49:10

a? Nine or ten that's

49:12

a mess all right, so now just roll your

49:14

damage. Well my damage is Three

49:18

three damage all right, and then you do

49:20

a three total. Oh you

49:22

miss the second. Yeah you

49:24

do a Fortitude

49:27

right yes, all right so first action

49:29

you pulled out the bow second action flurry of bows

49:32

Okay, sorry both for those so you're not in

49:34

your Archer stance where you got into that with

49:36

that Wait

49:39

I Did not

49:41

yeah, you're right. I can't do flurry of flows Oh

49:44

what I was going to do is take it out and Just

49:47

do one hit so that I had it out and then

49:49

my next turn I could get into it Okay, so you're

49:51

not near monastic. I'm not in my stance We

49:54

say the first one just hits it's a regular and it's not

49:56

going to trigger any stunning fifth.

49:59

Okay that only happens Why can't you

50:01

do it first? Why can't you do this thing? Two

50:03

actions. And then I

50:05

don't get the hit. And I figured hitting was more useful

50:07

than not. Okay. Now, so then

50:09

you still have an action, don't you? Yeah.

50:12

Nope. Took out... Fired

50:14

once. Oh yeah, you can

50:16

fire again, I guess. Wait, wait, wait, wait. She

50:19

drew the bow. Drew the bow. Fired once. No, no,

50:21

that's what I meant to do. I took... I

50:23

drew the bow. I entered Manastik Archer's fan.

50:26

That's three actions. That's one

50:28

action. You said Manastik was two. I lied. Yeah,

50:31

no, it's one action. You all confused me when

50:33

you questioned me the first time. You never said

50:35

Manastik Archer's fan, so right? I did. Okay,

50:38

all right. So that's first action, pull it

50:40

out, second Manastik, third puller blows, second hit

50:42

misses, first one hits, hour of 42. Now

50:45

you do, yes. Okay. Yeah,

50:47

crushed it. 22. Ooh.

50:51

Class DC, class

50:53

DC. That's a success. Yeah,

50:57

I don't think there's a... even

50:59

if it's not critical, I don't think there's like a half John

51:02

on that, so it'd be around 18. Okay.

51:04

Let me know if it's not... I

51:06

believe you. As we move into round

51:09

two, right after this quick word from

51:11

our John. Of

51:19

course, we are sponsored by the incredible

51:21

Z-Biotics, an absolutely phenomenal pre-alcohol probiotic that

51:23

is a game changer for me when

51:25

it comes to having a few drinks

51:28

at night and then waking up feeling

51:30

fresh and ready to rock the next

51:32

day. Z-Biotics pre-alcohol probiotic

51:34

drink is the world's first

51:36

genetically engineered probiotic. It was

51:38

invented by PhD scientists to

51:40

tackle rough mornings after drinking.

51:43

Here's how it works. When

51:46

you drink, alcohol gets converted into

51:48

a toxic byproduct in the

51:50

gut. It's this byproduct, not dehydration,

51:52

that's to blame for your rough

51:55

next day. Z-Biotics pre-alcohol

51:57

probiotic produces an enzyme to break

51:59

this. byproduct down. Just remember to

52:01

make Z-biotics pre-alcohol your first drink

52:03

of the night, drink responsibly,

52:06

and you'll feel your best

52:08

tomorrow. Between Matthew and Troy

52:10

and I, the awesomeness of

52:12

Z-biotics comes up over and

52:14

over again where it's

52:17

become part of our routine. I will clearly come

52:19

into the studio dragging a little bit from the

52:21

night before and Matthew will be like, did you

52:23

take your Z-biotics? And I'll be like, no, I

52:25

left it at home, I was at

52:27

my sister's and we had a couple drinks, blah blah

52:29

blah, and Matthew will give me that disapproving look that

52:31

he's so famous for that just says, I told

52:34

you so. And it just, I

52:36

mean it cracks me up even saying this because it's 100% true, but

52:38

53:28

Thanks John. Top

53:31

of round two, it is Bugle's turn.

53:33

Bugle's, this thing has just like trampled

53:36

you and all your friends. Asta is

53:38

toe to toe with this vicious blade

53:40

thing. You're about 25 feet

53:42

away from the centaur with Zephyr

53:44

right in front of you who

53:46

focused her fire on the blade

53:49

on the auger. What do you

53:51

do? Okay, so yeah, Bugle's teeth

53:53

are audibly chattering just from the

53:55

sphere, but when he

53:57

shoots this frostbite, which is actually a

54:00

If not, Raphross is an attack role,

54:02

it's actually a basic role save. Or

54:04

a basic save. Whatever. Um,

54:07

but the moment he, like, fires this off, um,

54:09

his eyes, like, flash, like, red again.

54:13

And you hear this voice, and

54:16

it's not in common, but it's like it's

54:19

subtitles. It's just like, it's

54:21

your fear sickens me. This

54:24

is the hour for Kollacan! And

54:27

he rushes right at the

54:29

centaur. Whaaaaat? And your fear

54:32

sickens me. This is cuck!

54:35

And his fist, his little fist, like, turns into

54:37

a fireball. And he snaps,

54:39

like, as he swings. What

54:42

is going on? Uh, that's a 21 to hit.

54:45

21 hits. Uh,

54:49

that is 11 points of

54:51

damage. Holy! Let's go! Alright,

54:54

boom! Couple things are gonna happen. First,

54:56

Bugles comes up and lays down. What's

54:58

your weapon again that you're using? I'm

55:00

just, I'm using Ignite. I

55:02

do Ignition as a melee attack with an

55:05

Arrange attack. I rolled a, and it's amped.

55:07

So it's a D12 instead of a D10.

55:10

Okay, and you moved up right next to it? You

55:12

moved up right next to it? Yeah. Okay, let me

55:14

just slide you up there. Alright, so you slide up,

55:16

you hit it, you do 11 points of damage. As

55:19

you hit it, that green

55:21

cloak that's on her back begins

55:23

to, like, animate. And

55:25

lashes out at you. You know, I was gonna

55:28

say, because it looks like a Venus flytrap. Oh!

55:31

The layers of it looks like a

55:33

giant, like, laid out Venus flytrap. You're

55:36

absolutely right. Uh, so as these, like,

55:39

leaves of snapping jaws and thorns come out for you,

55:41

give me a reflex save. Oh wow, I didn't notice

55:43

that at all. And

55:45

I was gonna say, the minute,

55:47

like, he changes and the other

55:49

entity takes over, he loses the Frightened Condition. Okay,

55:52

great. The

55:54

self-imposed. Natural 20. Oh! Huge!

55:58

My God. Dude, my business is in there.

56:00

in the pocket right now. It

56:02

goes to snap at you, but it snaps over your

56:04

head where you're so small. And you

56:06

said that was 11 points of damage. Yeah. Something

56:09

I forgot to do before

56:11

the break. Kate, give me a will save

56:13

against the fear effect of the blades. Oh,

56:16

okay. No problem. Okay. Oh,

56:20

that's a 16. You're frightened

56:23

one. Okay. All right.

56:25

Buggles, is that your whole action? Yep.

56:28

Okay, my heart. Just jumps in there, lays out

56:30

11 points of damage, but now

56:32

Buggles is toe to toe with this

56:34

thing. Buggles, give

56:36

me a will save. That

56:41

is a 19. 19, you're

56:43

all right. You're all right. Just

56:45

making sure you can't become immune to it,

56:47

okay? Great. Moving right

56:49

along, it is Asta's turn. Asta, you are

56:51

just gushing blood. It's staining your beautiful white

56:54

fur. So do

56:56

I make the check now? End your

56:58

turn. I'll just take the bleed

57:00

damage, then you'll roll the flat. Cool. Awesome.

57:03

So I am going to spell

57:05

strike. That's right.

57:07

And I'm gonna kill. I'm calling my

57:09

shot, I'm gonna kill this little ball. Wow. Wow.

57:12

Taking them from show. All right. So

57:17

going to melee attack with my

57:19

katana first. And you

57:21

see this crackling electricity, like in her

57:23

tail, that travels like through

57:25

her body into her hands and into

57:28

the katana as she makes this attack.

57:31

That's definitely gonna hit. That's a 23. 23

57:36

is a hit. All

57:38

right, come on. That's

57:41

a minnow. No. Okay,

57:44

that's five points of damage. And

57:47

then the spell, I'm casting

57:49

a level one shopping grasp.

57:52

That's gonna be, yeah. This isn't

57:55

cantrip. This is. We're not in

57:57

cantrip anymore. Ha ha ha ha ha. Kill

57:59

her! Pretty good pretty good.

58:01

It was great until the point. Yeah

58:07

The audio listeners they're loving it Awesome

58:10

very good. There's a bit pause there. Okay,

58:12

so that's gonna be oh

58:14

and because I'm in my stance I get a

58:16

plus one to my damage. So oh nice. What

58:18

did I say for the katana? Sorry? Well,

58:20

it's just another point. So it's six six for the

58:23

katana and then that's gonna be A

58:27

18 plus one circumstance. Oh, oh, okay. If

58:29

the target is wearing metal or is made

58:31

of metal I lost one to

58:34

my attack. So that's fine. You already got that But

58:36

you also take 1d4 persistent

58:38

electricity damage on my head. Wait, how

58:40

much electricity did he take 18 points? What was

58:42

the hit or is there no to hit the

58:44

katana hit and so yeah, yes doing damage. Yeah.

58:46

Okay So 18 points

58:49

six flashing 18 electricity 18 electricity

58:52

I'm one. So you destroy It's

58:57

very very strange like you hit it right and it's

58:59

just like so funny that it's a ball You

59:02

hit the ball and it just like boom

59:05

and it hits the floor and it's just

59:07

sitting there in like one Solid piece on

59:09

the ground like you like it was a

59:11

weight to hit the ground and

59:14

it just seems like inert And

59:20

Do you still have actions? Yeah,

59:22

one more action you better not this is ridiculous. I do

59:24

have one more character is too powerful So

59:26

it's the electricity it also would take I

59:28

know it had the regeneration so it would

59:30

take Persistent is it gonna

59:33

come back? Well, you did see

59:35

it sort of stitch back if it did have

59:37

some sort of regenerative property You need to find

59:39

out what can bypass that regeneration to end it

59:41

the electricity will kind of keep it at bay

59:43

Cuz we'll keep taking that damage Like

59:46

and didn't you roll successful knowledge check on this thing? Did

59:48

you roll? Well to I rolled a 24 We

59:52

never we didn't know what I gave you a line Well,

59:54

just so you know, it does have the one I mean

59:56

you gave me a lot of lore, right?

1:00:00

Maybe some more. But did you give

1:00:02

me any useful mechanical information about it?

1:00:04

None. Here's

1:00:06

what I'll tell you. If it does have

1:00:08

some sort of regeneration, and it does, you

1:00:11

are the only one that can stop it. Shunk,

1:00:14

gunk, gunk. Well, it has the persistent electricity,

1:00:16

so it can keep it from getting its

1:00:18

gas. That persistence is going to help. But

1:00:21

you know, I think by the rules I'll still roll

1:00:23

flat checks against it to

1:00:25

see if it stops that persistent damage. However,

1:00:28

if it does have regeneration, only the things that will

1:00:30

bypass it, which are what you can do, your sort

1:00:33

of divine spells.

1:00:36

What is it? It could come back. Is it

1:00:39

good? It's good. Yeah. I don't know if I

1:00:41

have that. Yeah, but we're not really doing it

1:00:43

with alignment. You just need something holy. Yeah,

1:00:45

okay. All right. So then... Or silver. But

1:00:47

I don't think anybody has any silver weapons.

1:00:50

What about positive? No.

1:00:52

No. That's different. So

1:00:55

with my final action then, I'm gonna run and

1:00:59

flank with Buggles on

1:01:01

Big Horse Lady. Run flank with

1:01:03

Buggles on Big Horse Lady. Well, it's

1:01:06

Big Horse Lady's turn. That's Mrs. Big

1:01:08

Horse Lady to you. And

1:01:11

she is going to raise

1:01:15

her half a body up, and

1:01:17

it's gonna come down on Buggles.

1:01:21

First attack against Buggles. Miss

1:01:23

with a 13. Wow! All

1:01:26

right, second attack does the same thing. And turn...

1:01:28

Or do I want to swing a sword? No.

1:01:30

More damage with the hooves. Boom!

1:01:33

Tried to punch you with a hoof.

1:01:35

Asta. Natural 20. Oh! Norse

1:01:40

Foundry. No, I'm not. Norse

1:01:46

Foundry 20 named character. Oh!

1:01:49

Before we go, before we get into it.

1:01:52

I'm gonna play by the rules. I'm gonna be a

1:01:54

rules boy. I never made my flat check for

1:01:56

my bleed damage. Yes. So let's take the

1:01:58

bleed damage first, which is... one only one

1:02:01

oh that's good now give a flat check

1:02:04

ready there's

1:02:07

1:03:01

1:03:03

1:03:06

1:03:08

anything being held a

1:03:10

leg unable to step reduce speed

1:03:12

by 10 I

1:03:15

also have two tails just want to say

1:03:17

about head the capitated

1:03:19

permanently death while I have act

1:03:22

that you're only getting half damage

1:03:24

on a base D10 plus oh

1:03:27

that is very very good so we'll

1:03:29

do the damage first nine points of

1:03:32

blood damage just get punched by a

1:03:34

fucking horse and

1:03:36

then what do I roll a D6 or deep

1:03:38

no no you choose I say you should

1:03:40

also choose I do have two tails they

1:03:42

are appendages tails are appendages I have two

1:03:45

arms not listed in the two tails

1:03:47

I choose okay

1:03:49

but wait I have to which arm the one

1:03:52

with the way off hand tended

1:03:55

to spot it and you drop my

1:03:57

kind of I could see it too just like a

1:04:00

And you're like, ahh! And then the spasm.

1:04:02

And literally, yeah, the muscle just like, let's go. It's

1:04:04

just loose. It's gone. To tink, tink,

1:04:06

tink, the katana hits the

1:04:08

ground. Third action, Ray Shield.

1:04:12

She is hunkering down at her. Well you

1:04:15

flanked her, so that effectively just neutralizes that.

1:04:17

It doesn't give her a higher AC than

1:04:19

she had before she was flanked. Yeah, that's

1:04:21

true. Okay. Okay. Alright,

1:04:23

so here's what's gonna happen. And so this is why

1:04:26

I told you more about the regeneration. You do see

1:04:28

the blade ball come back to life momentarily. But then

1:04:30

it's going to take... One d4 persistence.

1:04:32

One d4... Hold on. Does

1:04:35

it come back to life and then get

1:04:37

a turn? Does the damage

1:04:39

come at the end of its turn? Oh, you know

1:04:41

what? Because you... Well no, you killed

1:04:43

it. So it's basically the regeneration acts at the big start of

1:04:45

its turn. So it gets some... Whatever, how

1:04:47

many hit points it gets, that's enough to bring it awake.

1:04:50

Yeah. So it's awake. Is

1:04:52

that an action? No. So then it would get

1:04:54

its full turn before the... It takes

1:04:56

the persistence. That's right. Is it

1:04:58

a reaction? Is it a reaction? Let me see. I

1:05:01

would have kicked this thing into another room. I would have

1:05:03

just... It's not an action. It's

1:05:13

not super important. Alright, so it comes back

1:05:15

to life. Oh god. You know what's crazy?

1:05:18

It's gonna get its whole turn. And then

1:05:20

unless I roll minimum damage on the electricity,

1:05:22

it's gonna just go down again. Just giving

1:05:24

it a whole extra turn is amazing. Alright,

1:05:27

so it's... It's unbelievably amazing. It's

1:05:29

phenomenal. It's back. It's cheating. And

1:05:31

Brother Rameus is standing right there.

1:05:34

And so it's going to first

1:05:36

action focus its gaze on Brother

1:05:38

Rameus and you'll have to immediately

1:05:40

save against its Feel

1:05:42

the Blade thing. So that was an action. That's

1:05:44

a will save, yeah. Okay.

1:05:47

Fail. That's

1:05:49

like the 15th floor I've seen you roll. Yeah.

1:05:52

Die as ice. Fail. You

1:05:55

are a frightened one. It was a 14. So

1:05:57

frightened one. I mean that just... really

1:06:00

hurts. That really hurts. A guy

1:06:02

who already stinks. Now

1:06:06

Frightened goes down by one at the end of

1:06:08

each turn? Yes. Alright, so remember

1:06:11

if you were frightened before it goes down

1:06:13

by one. I'm not frightened anymore. I haven't

1:06:15

been putting the conditions on you because you

1:06:17

have your own Demiplane sheets but just remember

1:06:19

you're Frightened One. It goes away at the

1:06:21

end of each turn. Who is sponsoring this

1:06:23

episode which I don't think you even mentioned?

1:06:25

Demiplane. Demiplane! I mean honestly if you're building

1:06:27

character sheets it is the best one out

1:06:29

there. That's it. It

1:06:32

is the best one out there and Foundry VTT

1:06:34

has been life changing for me as a GM

1:06:36

and you can already see the way it builds

1:06:38

immersion for the players and of course Newer's Foundry

1:06:42

Natural 20. Every time. Oh

1:06:45

I just rolled another one. Get

1:06:47

out of here. Swordice on sale in the merch

1:06:49

store. Alright

1:06:51

so with its second two

1:06:53

actions it is going to... Let

1:06:57

me see if that includes movement. If

1:07:00

I want to do that whirring slice. Also

1:07:03

okay the creature regains hit points. Let's

1:07:06

get real tikitak because this is a serious

1:07:08

situation. Does it just

1:07:11

like hover for

1:07:14

free as well? Is that just a thing?

1:07:16

Or does it have to like get up from

1:07:18

poon quote unquote. It doesn't need an action

1:07:20

to start taking off. It has a fly speed.

1:07:22

So what it did to me it just did

1:07:24

from the ground. From the ground right. It

1:07:26

was very disturbing. And

1:07:29

so now what it's going to do is just

1:07:31

start spinning in place and just shoot its way

1:07:33

at either you or Asta. Or

1:07:38

anybody I want honestly. I

1:07:41

see more fun here. Asta's already bleeding. Puggles

1:07:44

is over there. You know what? That's

1:07:47

funny. Talithi you look a little too

1:07:49

comfy over there. How did I get involved

1:07:51

in this? My

1:07:54

character getting involved in this encounter. Alright you know what I'm going

1:07:57

to do is I'm going to do 123, Talitha 4, 5, 6.

1:08:00

I think we know where this is going to end up. Oh!

1:08:07

It just kind of... Brother Ramius tries

1:08:09

to hit it as it goes by

1:08:11

and it's embarrassed. Just like, wow, that

1:08:14

guy has never played softball. Go ahead

1:08:16

and give me a reflex save if

1:08:18

it attempts to cut you. Umm,

1:08:23

14. Oh,

1:08:25

hell. Alright, so

1:08:27

a couple things are going to happen yet again. You're

1:08:30

going to take some slashing damage. Three

1:08:32

points of slashing and you are

1:08:34

bleeding. This thing sucks.

1:08:39

And now, why don't you go ahead

1:08:41

and give me the 1d4 electricity damage.

1:08:43

Gladly. Come on, max it out, dude.

1:08:46

Hit it. Again. Two.

1:08:50

And that's enough to take it back. Yeah,

1:08:52

oh my god. It gets one point back.

1:08:55

It gets one or two. One or two.

1:08:58

But we got to put it down.

1:09:00

That's amazing. We can't let it

1:09:02

get another turn. I'm

1:09:04

looking at you, Joe. I got

1:09:06

other business to attend to. I'm

1:09:08

sorry. Alright, well, that

1:09:10

thing is now behind Talitha. Talitha's got to deal with

1:09:12

it but can't deal with it. Just wants to get

1:09:15

away from it probably. That means you're getting closer to

1:09:17

Captain Sulla. Why can't you deal with it? Don't try

1:09:19

to think my thoughts for me. Well, you tell me

1:09:21

what you're thinking because it's your turn. Okay. And

1:09:24

you're bleeding! I'm going to be an arabian. Oh,

1:09:26

yeah, take it down further in the dying.

1:09:29

Okay. Roll. The

1:09:32

hit? The tiny little thing. Yeah, I mean. It's

1:09:34

a tiny little thing. Do I need to devise

1:09:36

a strategy? Real quick question.

1:09:39

Sorry. Are you doing this?

1:09:42

Correctly. Mechanically? Or

1:09:45

are you doing this like, flavorously? Mechanically.

1:09:48

Troy said something like- So you're going to

1:09:50

just attack it three times, basically. Or two

1:09:53

times. I was going to

1:09:55

do two and bring it down. See if that gets a

1:09:57

dying point. Troy said something like, oh, it's a dying point.

1:09:59

It's dying at one. It seemed like the way he was talking

1:10:01

about it did make a difference if it was a dying one.

1:10:03

He did say that you're the only one that can kill it.

1:10:05

It's not because of regeneration. But I

1:10:07

do wonder if we can hit it three times. Maybe you could

1:10:09

just purely if you hit it. It might

1:10:11

be wounded one. So it might be dying two right now. If

1:10:14

he's tracking that, which you don't normally track, that's why

1:10:16

I'm a little weirded out about this. Because you might

1:10:18

hit it all you want and you might just not

1:10:20

let it happen. But also I wouldn't, I think Talitha,

1:10:23

even though it would regenerate, the thing he might attack or the

1:10:25

most obvious thing to do would be to stick it with the

1:10:27

razor. I just want to

1:10:30

make sure you weren't doing this purely for mechanical reasons

1:10:32

because it might not work out. But narratively it makes

1:10:34

perfect sense. It's easy. It's been significantly lowered by the

1:10:36

fact that it is dying. All right. That

1:10:38

boy. I have 11. Yes.

1:10:41

Oh wow. All right. So it

1:10:44

goes to dying two. Okay. Second

1:10:46

attack. It's not

1:10:48

a crit. It was dying one. It was,

1:10:50

it died. It has to be wounded if you're tracking

1:10:52

that thing. It would die when you came back. Okay,

1:10:54

so dying three. Now it's dying three. Second attack. Can

1:10:58

you destroy it? Natural one. Oh

1:11:00

my god. Oh

1:11:02

my god. Oh

1:11:05

my god. How can

1:11:07

you? How

1:11:09

do you sleep with yourself? How do you

1:11:11

sleep with yourself? How do you sleep with

1:11:13

yourself? How do you sleep with yourself at

1:11:15

night? Oh my god. That's hilarious. It's

1:11:19

right. It was wounded. So you took it to dying

1:11:21

three. You go to finish it off. Yeah.

1:11:24

Like, do you stab your own foot? Let's find

1:11:26

out. What the

1:11:28

fuck? A Buick drives

1:11:30

into the room and hits

1:11:32

you in the sword. Another

1:11:34

centaussure. It kicks

1:11:36

you. Alright. This

1:11:39

one. Another

1:11:42

centaussure. Whatever

1:11:46

enemy you're fighting, triple. Yeah. I

1:11:49

was going to say. Yeah. That was

1:11:51

a good thing. If the creature you're fighting is

1:11:53

already dead, it comes back alive. What if your

1:11:55

enemy's friends from college show up? Are you fighting

1:11:57

a real saga? I hope he shows up. We've

1:12:00

got Andrew from Derry, New

1:12:02

Hampshire. Hi, Andrew. Derry and

1:12:04

the... Derry and the... Derry!

1:12:07

This one is Divine Disappointment. I'll say. So

1:12:09

close to Brother Amiens. One

1:12:12

of the gods, perhaps your own, was

1:12:15

enjoying the spectacle of your battle until

1:12:18

this moment. Your attack

1:12:20

misses horribly. It really

1:12:22

is horrible. Your embarrassing

1:12:24

attack offends the watching deity so

1:12:27

much that they inflict you with

1:12:29

enfeebled one until

1:12:31

you succeed on another melee attack.

1:12:33

Oh, okay. Wow.

1:12:37

I haven't had enfeebled in Pathfinder 2e.

1:12:40

Do you even have a god? I

1:12:42

do. Who's you? Do you?

1:12:45

Fresno. Oh. Dark. Lady

1:12:48

of Grizz. Status penalty

1:12:50

equal to the condition value to strength-based

1:12:52

roles in DCs, including strength of Epleyra.

1:12:56

Okay. Wait, but that... Don't you use your

1:12:58

decks? Or do you use strength when you attack? The

1:13:01

rapier is a finesse weapon. Yeah. So

1:13:03

it doesn't matter at all. I'm

1:13:06

taking a minus four to the third attack.

1:13:09

Really? From enfeebled? That's my

1:13:11

third attack. Oh, right, right, right. Sorry. Okay.

1:13:15

I'm gonna change dice. You're like, no, no. From

1:13:17

the rules of the game. From the standard rules of the game. Okay,

1:13:19

third attack. Okay. It's not a... Is

1:13:22

it? Is it another one? It's not a one. It's

1:13:24

not a one. It's a two to hit. I rolled

1:13:27

a natural six. That would be... That's definitely a miss.

1:13:29

I feebly kick at it in the dirt. that

1:13:32

knocked it? Yeah. That's one thing we didn't do.

1:13:34

It's kind of important. This is a weird situation

1:13:36

because these enemies normally don't get diked. Right,

1:13:48

right, right, right. Who was the one that took

1:13:50

it out? I did. Asta did,

1:13:52

right. So technically it should have moved before Asta

1:13:54

and never been able to hit. There's

1:13:57

a lot going on here. Yeah. I should

1:13:59

have been able to go before it. Yeah, I'm just gonna leave it

1:14:01

where it is because Talitha is the one that took it back down

1:14:03

and now it goes for Talitha. It

1:14:05

is what it is. Is

1:14:07

that it, Talith? That's my turn. Good

1:14:11

job! Shut up. It's Brother Raimius' turn.

1:14:13

Brother Raimius, you're frightened. Talitha is infeasible. She looks

1:14:15

weak. She looks weak. Presence of a damn bomb.

1:14:17

I didn't even hit it, so I'm still infeasible.

1:14:20

Oh wait, I bleed. I bleed. You

1:14:22

bleed. You bleed blood. You

1:14:25

take four points of damage. And I failed

1:14:27

to fight. Oh my god. I died. Going

1:14:29

through all of your D20s. Are

1:14:32

you rotating? I've gone through

1:14:34

four D20s on this turn. And

1:14:37

even when I hit him, it wasn't great. It's

1:14:39

like an actual five. What do you do? Brother

1:14:43

Raimius, I mean this is a nasty situation

1:14:45

with this thing and Talitha bleeding, trying to

1:14:47

fight it. But

1:14:50

he feels that the centaur is the bigger

1:14:52

threat at the moment, so he's just gonna

1:14:54

turn in place, look back around at this

1:14:56

battle that's happening on the other side of

1:14:58

this table where Bugles and Asta are flanking

1:15:01

the creature and he sees Asta

1:15:03

get really roughed up, so he's

1:15:05

just going to yell across at

1:15:07

you, Asta, pick her out!

1:15:09

And he is going to heal you. So

1:15:12

he's going to cast heal so

1:15:14

that you get that tendon repaired and can use

1:15:17

your arm and your weapon for

1:15:19

15 points. Let's go

1:15:21

back up to full healing. We'll remove the bleeding.

1:15:24

We'll not remove the bleeding. Right. We'll

1:15:27

remove the torn tendon

1:15:29

situation. So with the way

1:15:31

it was written, she couldn't pick up her weapon

1:15:33

until the tendon was finished? She couldn't manipulate. I

1:15:35

could have used my offhand. But she couldn't cast

1:15:37

spells or anything like that? Wow!

1:15:40

Yeah. I could have cast spells. Yeah, but

1:15:43

if you got crit by her maybe once, you'd go

1:15:45

down. Then we'd have to deal with you at

1:15:47

dying, so. Just saying, I could have cast spells.

1:15:49

What else you got? What else

1:15:51

you got? Thank you. Thank you. Then

1:15:55

he will... There's a holy cantrip that you can

1:15:57

cast from the ring? It's two actions.

1:16:00

Unfortunately. So,

1:16:03

I'm just going to have to deal with this thing in

1:16:05

another round, just assuming people can

1:16:07

stay up enough. Okay. Yeah.

1:16:11

So he will aid Buggles

1:16:15

with a prayer. Ah,

1:16:17

prayer. Prayer? A

1:16:19

religion check? A religion check

1:16:22

to the keeper. Alright. If Zephyr's turn

1:16:25

to end keeper this creature then round

1:16:27

two. I'll watch as he means

1:16:29

to be alive. Let him destroy that creature.

1:16:33

Alright. I'm in Manastha Garchar's stance.

1:16:36

I'm going to move without

1:16:38

my ruler on because I'm measured already. I'm

1:16:41

going to move right in front of the door so

1:16:43

that I don't take a volley

1:16:45

penalty. And I'm

1:16:48

going to use my focus

1:16:50

spell, key strike. I

1:16:53

only get one of these every time I rest.

1:16:56

So I make an unarmed strike or a flurry

1:16:58

of blows. And

1:17:01

I gain a plus one status bonus each time

1:17:05

I make my attack. Okay. And

1:17:07

then I deal extra damage if it hits. So.

1:17:11

Okay. At big

1:17:13

bad lady. So

1:17:15

what you got? BBL. The

1:17:18

natural two, the first one. Oh

1:17:20

my god. You're all ice cold.

1:17:22

Just going to put that vise

1:17:24

over there. And roll the second one.

1:17:27

Oh boy. Oh no. Oh

1:17:29

my god. Oh. Stamus,

1:17:33

did you net one for your

1:17:35

dice bar? Oh

1:17:38

no. No. Yeah.

1:17:41

Oh no. Or she's ice cold. I

1:17:45

was like this is going to be such a big

1:17:47

turn because I'm using my focus spell. And

1:17:49

if I hit it because it's flanked, I'm going to

1:17:51

do extra damage. And then I did. Oh

1:17:55

man. You ever become

1:17:57

so nervous? disappointed

1:18:00

in yourself

1:18:03

so quick I always just a divine you just

1:18:05

want to give up what were you saying earlier in

1:18:07

this episode Joe sorry

1:18:11

what try to deal

1:18:13

with your god damn

1:18:15

1:18:17

1:18:21

trying Joe what do we got

1:18:24

Madison Wisconsin I thought I'd place

1:18:29

of the onion can I call

1:18:31

1:18:33

is interesting with your monastic Archer stance the

1:18:35

newspaper and walk it off yeah not the

1:18:37

festival walk it off your

1:18:40

attack misses because you're getting terrible cramping

1:18:42

in your legs you

1:18:45

take a minus two circumstance penalty

1:18:47

to your AC until you're able

1:18:49

to move for a total of

1:18:51

1d4 times 20 feet of distance so basically you

1:18:53

got to move around this room to walk it

1:18:55

off otherwise you take a penalty of your AC

1:18:59

Wow good job on

1:19:01

that fumble how hard is yet make you walk home

1:19:03

and you have to move 40 feet a

1:19:05

total of 45 how I don't even do in

1:19:07

one action no yeah so I mean

1:19:10

now that I know that I have to do

1:19:12

that I'm gonna move 25 feet for

1:19:15

my third action yeah I feel I don't

1:19:17

want to yeah I'll go up to next

1:19:19

to rainiest here 25 feet

1:19:28

walk starting to walk it off 15 feet left

1:19:30

15 feet to

1:19:32

go all right so you just

1:19:34

start to walk it off 15 feet this magic

1:19:36

start to happen with her bow and it just

1:19:38

fizzles out and pop and she's

1:19:40

like oh oh Charlie horse oh all

1:19:43

right and now she's walking around the room

1:19:46

that is such a bummer about your focus

1:19:48

ball I'm so sorry yeah top around three

1:19:51

Bugle's turn Bugle's the standing toe-to-toe

1:19:53

with this thing that towers over

1:19:56

him so

1:19:59

when brother rameus starts

1:20:01

uttering his thing. The,

1:20:06

you see, Fuggles like Grimace, like, bears

1:20:09

his little fangs. And

1:20:11

he says in this language that

1:20:13

you don't understand, Save your players.

1:20:16

There is no god but me!

1:20:19

Boom! Hit him with the ice,

1:20:21

with the ant ice. Ho ho ho ho ho ho

1:20:23

ho. Oh yeah, that is a 26 to hit. That

1:20:26

is a hit. Way to go again

1:20:28

and prove there is no need for religion. That is

1:20:31

11 points of cold damage. No,

1:20:34

10. Sorry, 10 points of cold damage. 11,

1:20:37

10, excuse me, 10 points of cold damage. And

1:20:39

the same thing happens again, even though the shield is raised, she

1:20:41

didn't use it to try and block your thing, so

1:20:44

she'll use her reaction to have the cape

1:20:46

activate, give me a

1:20:48

reflex save. Ah,

1:20:52

natural three. So! It's

1:20:54

a critical failure. Alright, so you

1:20:57

take a little

1:20:59

bit of damage, as

1:21:01

this thing, like, snaps its jaw at

1:21:03

you and comes to life. You

1:21:06

take five points of piercing

1:21:08

damage, and you'll take

1:21:10

one bleed on your turn. You are

1:21:12

bleeding. Everybody is

1:21:15

bleeding. Everybody is bleeding, not fatigue.

1:21:19

Do you have any action left? Yeah. So

1:21:22

is he, like, trapped by this thing now, or just...

1:21:24

No, it was just an attack. And

1:21:28

so he redirects this pain from

1:21:30

this injury with his mind, and

1:21:32

does a side burst right into her mind.

1:21:34

Ooh! So give me

1:21:36

a will save. A will save. We're

1:21:40

about to see who's worthy! Side

1:21:43

burst. What'd you get?

1:21:47

Okay. You take two points of

1:21:49

damage. Two points of damage. Like, get damage.

1:21:51

So just, like, as the cape comes up

1:21:53

and grabs you, you redirect that pain into

1:21:55

her mind. Yeah, it's so cool. So cool.

1:21:58

All right, so... It's almost like a... like

1:22:00

an audible whip crack in her in her gahhh she

1:22:04

snarls at you whoa and

1:22:07

now my aura again it

1:22:09

vanishes the cool Lecan

1:22:11

is gone and bubble with Bugles is back

1:22:14

he's stupefied and frightened Oh Bugles!

1:22:19

let's see if Asta can finish this because that's

1:22:22

not a good place for Bugles to be so

1:22:25

Asta's arm healed she looks down at the

1:22:27

Katana but I

1:22:30

need to spell strike and I

1:22:33

have to either cast a spell before I spell

1:22:35

strike if I pick up my weapon I

1:22:38

can't spell strike why not spell strike

1:22:40

is a two action gone and it's a move action

1:22:42

to pick up a weapon yeah spell

1:22:44

strike you have three actions a turn

1:22:46

yeah move and before I spell

1:22:48

strike it's ready to it's ready at your feet the

1:22:51

spell strike is part of no no no I

1:22:53

know I have to cast a

1:22:55

spell before I can spell strike again I

1:22:57

have to reach for it oh no no you don't

1:23:00

have to cast a spell you have to like take

1:23:02

an assentering action I either

1:23:04

have to cast a spell or spend

1:23:06

an action to recharge that's cool that's really cool

1:23:08

I forgot about that part so she looks down at

1:23:10

the Katana with her healed arm and she like goes to

1:23:12

grab it and then she instead it's

1:23:15

almost monk like like she like mmmmmmm

1:23:19

and pulls her fist back and just

1:23:21

punches we're back

1:23:23

to the punching again this

1:23:26

is more effective it

1:23:29

would be cool though like in that stance it was like yeah

1:23:32

she's in her arcade cascade stance

1:23:34

and as she punches I'm going

1:23:36

to cast hydraulic push oh

1:23:38

there you go and punch this

1:23:40

horse in the neck okay okay

1:23:42

alright spell strike with you wait

1:23:44

wait wait I'm spell striking with my

1:23:47

I'm gonna center myself one action not pick

1:23:49

up the Katana spell strike with

1:23:51

my fist gotcha and you don't have another

1:23:53

use of the shocking one because remember this

1:23:55

is she's covered in metal I could

1:23:58

but I

1:24:00

mean I could. If you don't want, if

1:24:02

you're trying to save it, that's fine. I just want to remember. You've

1:24:06

got it and she's got this metal shittle. I prepared,

1:24:08

did I prepare it? I think I did. Yes. Oh

1:24:11

no, I didn't. Oh, because it

1:24:13

doesn't work like a sorcerer. Yeah, I have

1:24:15

my book. You prepared it, you

1:24:17

used it, that's it. Yeah. Yeah. I have another

1:24:19

spell slot, but... Don't roll a natural one. We

1:24:22

can't have another one. Why would you say that? You

1:24:24

never have it. Don't roll a natural

1:24:26

one. Don't talk to me. Alright.

1:24:28

You got this. Don't talk to me when I'm rolling.

1:24:30

I'm so confused. Anything but a one. Okay,

1:24:33

it's not, but it's also not good. Ugh. Um,

1:24:36

it's gonna be a 19. Oh,

1:24:39

plus one. It's

1:24:41

gonna be a dirty 20. That's not that bad.

1:24:44

We're flanking. And it's flanking. Plus

1:24:46

one, dirty 20. And

1:24:49

it's off guard. It's off guard, but it

1:24:51

has a shield race. But I used

1:24:54

mine. Oh yeah, he... I should not have a

1:24:56

shield race. Yeah. That was last turn. I

1:24:58

used my reaction to have the cloak. So

1:25:01

I can't do shield block with the shield on. Oh no,

1:25:03

the shield's gonna give you the ace. Your shield is still

1:25:05

a race. But you're flanked. So it's... It

1:25:07

offsets. Yeah. Yeah. Alright, so...

1:25:10

What happened? Dirty 20. So

1:25:12

dirty 20. To hit. Right.

1:25:14

My AC is higher, but then it's lower.

1:25:18

That's a hit. Yeah! Yeah!

1:25:21

Good job! Alright. So

1:25:23

that's three points, I guess, of bludgeoning with my

1:25:25

fish. Non-lethal. One extra one

1:25:27

from Force, from my Arcane Cascade

1:25:29

stance. It's a Force damage,

1:25:31

one-fourth. Then my hydraulic push.

1:25:34

It is 3d6. It's

1:25:37

just a regular success. Well, yeah.

1:25:40

Yes. Yeah. So 3d6. Let's

1:25:43

see. The push

1:25:45

doesn't have a save against

1:25:47

it, right? No. God,

1:25:50

I rolled like absolute trash. I'm so

1:25:52

pissed. Nine points.

1:25:54

There is a... Wait, you have

1:25:56

to make a... Range-pellet test. Oh, because you critically

1:25:58

succeed. I could do

1:26:00

66 if I crit. Okay.

1:26:05

All right. So what's the total? Nine

1:26:07

points. So it was, sorry, before.

1:26:10

Three points of non-lethal fist. Plus one

1:26:12

force. So four plus nine is 13,

1:26:15

13 points total. 13

1:26:18

points. But some of that was non-lethal. Three

1:26:20

was non-lethal. It all gets added together

1:26:23

to all the same. She falls. Yeah!

1:26:26

Wow! Nice. Nice.

1:26:30

She crumbles to the ground in front of you and

1:26:32

buggles. Oh! Oh!

1:26:34

Oh! Oh! Ow!

1:26:38

Ow! That

1:26:40

was really cool. Are you okay? That was

1:26:42

really cool. Are you okay? Me? Is

1:26:45

that a move? We're not through yet. And

1:26:47

he turns over to lead the... What are you

1:26:49

doing? There's a couple of people still bleeding, so

1:26:51

let's hold on here. Oh, I'm bleeding. You should

1:26:53

have taken one bleed and then rolled to see

1:26:55

if you removed the bleed. No.

1:26:59

Okay. And now you take

1:27:01

some bleed. You're going to take four more bleed,

1:27:03

Asta, and we'll see if you can remove it.

1:27:06

This time it's going to be different. I'm

1:27:08

going to go for it. He is.

1:27:11

Oh! All right, so you're out bleeding. What

1:27:13

is happening? Captain Salah is out

1:27:15

now. The gross blade ball. We'll see if

1:27:17

it will move up to another dying. You

1:27:20

don't know. It's still down. It is Talitha's

1:27:22

turn. Talitha, you have three actions, but you're still bleeding and

1:27:24

this thing is standing in view, but you don't think you

1:27:26

have the power to end it. I am

1:27:28

going to stab it though because I want to get rid of this in Fievels.

1:27:31

Yep. Okay. Fourteen to

1:27:33

hit. Okay, you hit it. Okay,

1:27:35

I'm no longer in Fievels. Stab!

1:27:38

Okay. And then I will... I'll

1:27:41

stab one more time. Okay. Okay,

1:27:44

there you go. Natural fifteen. There you

1:27:46

go. Great. Then you take four

1:27:48

points of bleed. My D4 is only roll four and

1:27:51

then roll a flat check. I have another action. Oh,

1:27:53

sorry. I'm

1:27:55

going to... I guess

1:27:57

I better quick tincture. No, I'll save it. Okay, let me

1:27:59

save it. Okay, I'll just watch it, okay? So

1:28:01

four points of bleed. You

1:28:04

know, let me try to stab one more time to see what

1:28:06

makes a difference. Okay. That'll be three

1:28:08

to hit. If you could roll another natural

1:28:10

one, maybe just stop. I thought

1:28:12

you'd go first. I got really scared. It

1:28:15

was seven. All right, so you just keep stabbing at this

1:28:17

thing, hoping that it's making a difference, but with regeneration, you're

1:28:19

just not sure. Take four points of damage

1:28:21

and then try to remove that bleed. Fourteen,

1:28:23

which is a, it's DC 15. 15,

1:28:26

oh. So three of

1:28:28

you are still bleeding and it goes to Brother

1:28:30

Ramius. Brother Ramius, you know that you are the

1:28:32

only one that can stop its regeneration, but three

1:28:34

of your allies are bleeding out. Yeah,

1:28:38

okay, he will attempt to

1:28:40

stop its regeneration. So, tell

1:28:43

me about, watch out. And he's

1:28:45

going to shoot past you, a

1:28:47

divine lance at this thing, and

1:28:49

this just white light comes emanating

1:28:52

out of his hand and just

1:28:54

bang into the creature, hopefully

1:28:57

sending it forever away. That's

1:29:00

good, that's a 21 to hit. 21

1:29:03

is a critical with a tasty. Oh,

1:29:05

beautiful. So just, boom. Too

1:29:08

great. Too great. It's

1:29:11

a nothing. Do

1:29:13

you see the action? She's covered in her own

1:29:15

blood. Yeah, exactly. So, we gotta

1:29:18

stay in combat rounds, you know, he's

1:29:20

like, come here, let me close

1:29:22

that up. I have bandages, I have bandages. Divine

1:29:25

lance, one action? No,

1:29:27

his turn is over. Right, so

1:29:29

now it goes to Zephyr. You, while

1:29:31

she, while Asa was bleeding, didn't you

1:29:34

heal her to her full hit point?

1:29:36

Yeah, but it doesn't, magical healing doesn't

1:29:38

take away. It does, it does if you're at your full.

1:29:40

Were you at full when I healed you? You healed me back

1:29:42

up, yeah, you healed me. Yeah, you're not bleeding

1:29:44

anymore. I gave you 15, was that to

1:29:46

your max? Yeah. Then you're

1:29:48

not bleeding. Oh, thank you. And then, bleed damage ends automatically

1:29:51

if you're healed to your full hit point. Okay. I

1:29:53

do not know that, okay. Give yourself four hit points

1:29:55

back. Okay. And you'll remove the bleeding. However,

1:29:57

Talitha and B Is

1:30:00

there anything you can do and know is fine?

1:30:02

We could just yeah, I don't think so you'd

1:30:04

have to be trained in medicine. Yeah, I am

1:30:08

I am not you

1:30:10

could flip my throat put me out

1:30:12

of my misery. I'm gonna walk. I'm gonna do a lap around

1:30:14

the room Yeah,

1:30:24

all right buggles is there anything you can do for

1:30:26

yourself or do you would just want to roll the

1:30:28

flat? I think

1:30:30

I yeah, I don't have medicine All

1:30:33

right, you're you're only taking one bleed. So

1:30:35

you do take one bleed and then Nope,

1:30:39

fail again. It's a buggles you see

1:30:41

is starting to bugles It's like his

1:30:43

head is swimming like he sees this

1:30:45

corpse of this horrible horse beast in

1:30:47

front of him. He's disoriented. He's bleeding

1:30:49

He's just like, oh Yeah,

1:30:52

yeah, he continues to bleed you must see this you

1:30:54

must see buggles is all out of sorts over there

1:30:57

Asta you're standing across from this fallen

1:30:59

centaur which is a big mound of

1:31:01

the body But you just see buggles

1:31:03

struggling. Can you do it? Bugles actually

1:31:06

like he slips against he's like walking

1:31:08

backwards. He slips in his

1:31:10

own blood It's

1:31:12

his head on the table Million-dollar

1:31:17

baby Bugle

1:31:27

episode title Terrible

1:31:36

day I

1:31:40

Would like to walk over

1:31:42

to buggles around the horse corpse the

1:31:45

centaur corpse And

1:31:47

after we'll get down on the ground in the

1:31:49

blood with him and she'll go okay. Okay Hold

1:31:54

on and I'm gonna treat do

1:31:57

a first-aid check I guess with my trained medicine

1:32:01

You're trained in medicine? Yep. Then administer

1:32:03

first aid, it's two actions. Two actions.

1:32:05

So I'll move and then do that as my two

1:32:07

actions to stop his bleeding. Okay. Alright,

1:32:10

so the DC on this is going to

1:32:12

be probably this thing's class DC, I would

1:32:14

guess, since it didn't... Is that how it

1:32:16

works? Yeah, it's the DC of the effect.

1:32:19

Oh, because it's... Oh, well,

1:32:21

I'll do my best. I don't know

1:32:23

if I'm going to get that. Because

1:32:26

I don't... you know, that wasn't like a spell

1:32:28

it cast, that was just an after effect of

1:32:30

its attack, right? So probably

1:32:32

its class DC would be the DC. Okay.

1:32:36

It makes perfect sense that it's class DC, because

1:32:38

it's... how violently do its blades cut?

1:32:40

Or it could be the DC of

1:32:42

the effect that others rolled against, the

1:32:45

reflexes. That's what makes you

1:32:47

bleed? Yeah, it's the ball. Oh, I'm sorry, that

1:32:49

was from the cape. Yeah. Oh, from the cape,

1:32:51

not the ball. Two different things,

1:32:53

sorry. So it would be the same DC? Yes. Yeah.

1:32:56

So 21. Success. Awesome,

1:32:58

yeah. So I just kind of palm bubbled

1:33:00

down and I start to pack his wound

1:33:02

and tape him up. That's great. Okay. Ah,

1:33:05

ah, ah, ah, and yeah, he

1:33:07

slowly starts to come around and

1:33:09

a little bit of relief and

1:33:11

understanding where he is. He's so cute.

1:33:14

And also says, you were so brave.

1:33:18

Oh, I don't think I

1:33:20

was. Oh, and

1:33:22

she just kind of holds, holds bubble. She goes, oh,

1:33:24

just sit here, okay? We can just sit here if you

1:33:27

don't have to get up here. Oh. Blood-bingling in

1:33:29

each other's open wounds. And

1:33:31

it goes to Felita. She's

1:33:35

got friends. I'm sorry, I had that on hand. Fred's

1:33:39

a sandman. Each of your blood seeping into

1:33:41

each other's open wounds. And this beautiful scene.

1:33:44

Felita, anything you can do, you just want me to try

1:33:46

to... This beautiful scene of death. ...I'm going to try to

1:33:49

staunchly bleeding. What was the DC?

1:33:53

I think it's 15. No, it's... Oh,

1:33:56

no, the classy DC of the... I have the DC of the... Oh

1:34:00

yeah, what effect put you at the ball? Ball.

1:34:03

Ball's blades. Glad I deleted that. It

1:34:06

would be the class DC of the ball.

1:34:08

Class DC of the ball. Ball blades. I

1:34:10

rolled a natural 19. Oh

1:34:12

yeah, you're fine. So I stopped the bleeding. Yeah. All

1:34:15

right, so good. The bleeding is, we're

1:34:17

done. Over. You know what I mean?

1:34:19

You guys ready to go in the next room? No,

1:34:22

no, no, no, no. I will be

1:34:24

right back. I'm just going to kick down

1:34:26

this door. And he kicks down

1:34:28

the next door. That

1:34:31

first sits at the table. Now that her leg feels

1:34:33

better. And looks around the room

1:34:36

at the skulls. From there.

1:34:39

What's next to you? I searched the centaur. This

1:34:41

lady's got to have some cool stuff. Which isn't

1:34:43

a pocket in that horse body. I checked to

1:34:46

see if it was in a pocket. Check for

1:34:48

gift certificates. Oh, okay. Yeah, we could use a

1:34:50

gift card to like an Olive Garden or something.

1:34:52

That'd be fun. That'd be fucking awesome. Oh my

1:34:54

God, now she had Dave and Busters. We

1:34:56

would go crazy. That's exactly what we

1:34:58

need. As a team building exercise and

1:35:01

as just some relief. Yep. Dave

1:35:03

and Busters? Yeah. Yeah, I said at the table, cool.

1:35:06

All right, that's cute. Michael,

1:35:09

do you still stupid? No,

1:35:11

that passes after two rounds. Right,

1:35:15

you search the body of the centaur.

1:35:17

She has a long sword. She

1:35:20

has a spear. She has actually five

1:35:22

spears. Because some were- Are they

1:35:25

all large size? Good

1:35:27

question. Oh, it is large

1:35:29

size. The magical cloak on her back. Whoa.

1:35:32

Oh, it's a, ah. Okay, I'm not

1:35:34

sure how resizing things work in

1:35:37

this. We can look into that between episodes. She's also

1:35:39

wearing a breastplate and it is a steel shield. I

1:35:42

would think that these are size large. Everything

1:35:45

longs for a spear, a breastplate, steel shield. But

1:35:48

who was she? Captain Sawa.

1:35:50

She told us her name. She told us

1:35:53

her name and most of her story. But

1:35:55

why does she come to serve Kenhipo? He's

1:35:57

asking this as he's hatching

1:35:59

up. Talitha. I

1:36:02

think, brother Amis, I think she was a

1:36:04

creature of evil. Do you

1:36:06

think that it's

1:36:09

just in their nature that some creatures

1:36:11

derive pleasure from a- What

1:36:15

did you do? I don't

1:36:17

know, just passionate Talitha. No, don't roll

1:36:20

the die with... Just lost

1:36:22

all color in his face. There

1:36:25

wasn't much in there to begin with. Do

1:36:28

you think some

1:36:31

creatures just naturally derive pleasure

1:36:34

from others' pain? Oh

1:36:36

yeah, this one definitely seemed to be into

1:36:39

that. She looks around, the

1:36:41

skull's in the room, and the meat around

1:36:43

the corner, the questionable meat. I

1:36:46

don't know how else to explain it. She wanted to

1:36:48

watch us suffer. She seemed

1:36:50

excited to... What

1:36:53

did she say? Jo is trying to heal me,

1:36:55

he rolled another natural one. Oh, that's what you're

1:36:57

doing over there. Are you bleeding and

1:36:59

just losing him? What's your ego? They're

1:37:03

having a great time. Oh, shit. I'm

1:37:06

sorry, stay still. Do you

1:37:08

think people try to intentionally hurt others? I'm sorry,

1:37:10

Zephyr. I'm

1:37:13

sorry, Zephyr at one side of the table, too. And

1:37:16

he's just getting out. Can

1:37:19

you keep it sound? I think somebody

1:37:21

did unintentionally hurt other people. Sure, absolutely. So

1:37:23

you take that much damage. Oh my God. I'm

1:37:27

still working. Come on. Continue your roleplay.

1:37:30

Stop it, Zephyr. Zephyr. Yeah.

1:37:34

Buckles in the back. Buckles,

1:37:38

I'm doing my best to go on un-perserved. Zephyr,

1:37:42

let's take a walk. Let's

1:37:45

look at all these skulls. Yeah.

1:37:47

Maybe into the meat room. Oh, let's look at the meat room.

1:37:50

Zephyr, do you want to take a walk? And

1:37:53

these buckles are still pretty badly hurt. So

1:37:55

he's just like, no, I

1:37:57

think I'll... I'll

1:38:00

give it a miss this time. Thank you though. Thank

1:38:03

you for stopping me from bleeding to

1:38:05

death And

1:38:08

now for our cleric to do their job Sweat

1:38:15

pouring down his face his blood all over him. It's

1:38:18

been an hour and a half He's

1:38:22

like I

1:38:30

need glass of water Tiger we

1:38:32

lost her. I'm gonna bring me water I

1:38:35

think i'm all right actually Bugles

1:38:39

please that'll be fine. Bugles Time

1:38:42

heals all wounds as they say All

1:38:46

right He's smoking.

1:38:48

Yeah, he's smoking. He rolls a

1:38:50

tobacco cigarette With

1:38:54

the page of a book the

1:38:56

hand's shaking hand's shaking He's just like sucking

1:38:58

one back. It was a hard one Bugles

1:39:07

Bugles it's like mash It

1:39:10

really is Um, and

1:39:12

it should be treated as such. This is

1:39:14

nasty, man. Yeah, this is war. It's gross

1:39:16

and brutal and uh Time

1:39:18

has to pass as we take care of this. So uh In

1:39:21

actuality, it took me 40

1:39:24

minutes to take care of felitha. So Lots

1:39:27

to discuss he's gonna start patching up. Bugles Before

1:39:32

you reach you actually touch him

1:39:34

he reaches out and he like gently sort of grabs

1:39:36

your wrist and he says I I'm

1:39:39

sorry He said that about

1:39:41

your prayer. I'm i'm

1:39:43

sure he didn't mean it Do

1:39:46

you and he's starting to work on you? Do

1:39:48

you know what he said? I

1:39:51

couldn't understand it you and I

1:39:53

speak many languages. Oh Well,

1:39:56

I I suppose it is important then

1:40:01

In any case, I... Did it feel wrong? What

1:40:05

he said to you? It

1:40:08

was rude. It

1:40:10

was rude. But I... I

1:40:13

think he... He... I

1:40:15

think he means well, at least as far

1:40:17

as I'm concerned. When

1:40:20

did you first start speaking with him? He

1:40:27

came to me when I was in

1:40:29

trouble at my...

1:40:33

Where I used to live. And

1:40:37

he... Helped protect you? He helped me.

1:40:39

Yes, he helped me. And

1:40:42

he has been with me ever

1:40:44

since. He comes and goes. I

1:40:47

have noticed that we were outside earlier and

1:40:49

he kind of smiles. And he's making progress.

1:40:51

He does seven points of healing. Oh.

1:40:54

Are you still down? Oh yeah.

1:40:57

Yeah, so he's just going to keep working. I

1:40:59

noticed outside he came over you again. It

1:41:01

seems to be these sort of violent

1:41:05

episodes where he emerges

1:41:08

when you're in danger. It is.

1:41:11

It is a little... Unpleasant.

1:41:15

It can be unpleasant. But

1:41:19

also it

1:41:21

is good, I suppose, to feel

1:41:24

strong for at least for a

1:41:26

moment. Yes,

1:41:29

it is nice to feel strong. I

1:41:32

wouldn't know. And he smiles. And

1:41:35

he crets natural 20. Oh. So

1:41:37

that is 17. You still down? Oh

1:41:40

no, I'm good. Okay, great. It

1:41:44

says, I know something of

1:41:46

feeling weak.

1:41:49

The weaker one. When

1:41:52

I was younger, I

1:41:56

had a brother who was very

1:41:59

strong. And I

1:42:02

always seem to pale in

1:42:04

comparison. You know, always a bit thinner,

1:42:06

always a bit slower to

1:42:08

run. And I

1:42:14

think it's my heart, really. That's

1:42:16

what the physicians told

1:42:18

me when I was younger. Something...

1:42:22

it's a little

1:42:24

slower, something makes

1:42:28

me... sometimes hard

1:42:30

to catch breath, and hard to keep

1:42:32

up. And to watch

1:42:35

him be so excellent in so many things, it

1:42:38

was difficult. So

1:42:41

I certainly understand the feeling of wanting

1:42:43

that strength. But

1:42:47

I worry, is it

1:42:49

worth losing yourself entirely? It's

1:42:53

hard to think of you

1:42:56

thinking of yourself as weak you are so

1:42:58

big. And

1:43:01

you say your heart is weak, your heart is

1:43:03

good? You have a

1:43:05

good heart. Oh, thank you,

1:43:07

boss. You do as well. I'm

1:43:11

glad that we are working together here

1:43:13

to try to find this answer

1:43:16

to our question. The

1:43:18

answer to why we passed through. But

1:43:22

with each place we go, and he's

1:43:24

looking around at this really

1:43:26

foreign, strange place, you know, it

1:43:30

only brings up more questions. Did

1:43:33

you miss your brother? I

1:43:35

do, very much. Very

1:43:39

much. He

1:43:41

kind of gets lost. I'm caught. I

1:43:44

miss mine too. Your brother.

1:43:46

They had many brothers and sisters. So

1:43:49

I thought of them. Yes,

1:43:53

it's been very

1:43:55

long since I have been

1:43:57

home. Home.

1:44:00

It's a

1:44:02

concept that has eluded me for

1:44:04

many years now. Do

1:44:07

you think we will ever see home again, Brother Raimiels?

1:44:11

I don't know, Bockels. I

1:44:14

think first we have to find out if we

1:44:18

can be safe anywhere. And

1:44:21

if we can be safe from

1:44:23

this, I know. Perhaps

1:44:26

we could return home. I

1:44:30

suppose I don't want to return to where I came from. But

1:44:33

it would be nice to find a home. I

1:44:36

suppose I don't hear the Bockels. Maybe

1:44:41

it's just that feeling of home. Perhaps

1:44:44

we... Perhaps we could

1:44:46

create a new one. That

1:44:49

would be good. That would be nice. But

1:44:52

you're all set there? Any sort

1:44:54

of paths on the places where he's placed the bandages. You're

1:44:57

in great shape. As straight as I say.

1:45:00

Thank you, Brother. Like hops down

1:45:02

from the chair. As good as

1:45:04

new. And

1:45:06

I said, that's not a

1:45:09

lamb shake. That's a pork

1:45:11

medallion. It's...it's

1:45:14

a joke. I

1:45:18

know it is. That

1:45:20

would do really well with Kitsune. They would

1:45:22

find that very funny. Maybe

1:45:25

one day I'll get it. Would

1:45:28

you like to hear another joke? Okay, we

1:45:30

can try it again. Oh.

1:45:34

I understand. You're tired. Brace

1:45:36

yourself. You're tired.

1:45:38

Anyway, look at all this meat. Can

1:45:41

we examine the skulls? Yeah,

1:45:43

I mean, the skulls, the first thing that

1:45:46

kind of jump out at you because they're all glowing

1:45:48

and they seem to be staring at you. And

1:45:51

they're all different shapes but all humanoid. You don't

1:45:53

see any with like multiple eye sockets. They're all

1:45:55

two eye sockets. Nose,

1:45:58

mouth, some don't contain the lower jaw. The

1:46:00

meat. Dilute.

1:46:03

It looks like Maybelline. Some of

1:46:05

it is definitely a business afloat.

1:46:07

Maybelline, these like a human body

1:46:09

to spin did a sect it

1:46:12

1:46:17

1:46:19
