Episode description

Ever wondered about the unexpected pleasures of a sausage? Join us as we indulge in quirky banter that sets the stage for our lively Dungeons & Dragons campaign. Our party of adventurers—Bill as Glenn the half-elf rogue swashbuckler, Brandon as Nines the high-elf monk, Justin as Moore's the high-elf wizard, and Maddie with her humorous attempts at introducing Montoya, the Arctic Tabaxi Ranger—bring their characters to life with a blend of humor and gratitude. We even toy with the idea of a musical compilation of our intro mishaps, embracing the awkwardness with open arms.

Our gaming sessions are nothing short of thrilling, with magic sharks and tentacle monsters posing challenges, and loot like the cap of water breathing and lyres adding intrigue. The memorable "Do Every Remember's" episode had us stuck in a time loop, humorously coined as the "long rest banjo." As we faced the mighty Skogoth in an underwater showdown, the tension was palpable but always tempered with camaraderie and laughter. From tactical gameplay to mastering character abilities, each session unfolds with a rich tapestry of storytelling and dynamic interactions.

Our journey doesn't end with battles; it extends into the realm of daily life, where we juggle workspaces, ergonomic chairs, and culinary experiments with kraken fillets. Social media interactions are a big part of our community, inviting listeners to join us on platforms and even our Discord for more direct engagement. Amidst all the fantasy chaos, there's humor and camaraderie, creating memorable moments like a radish becoming a symbol of friendship. Celebrate our leveling up after a tough boss fight, as we continue to navigate this fantastical world with joy and creativity.

Alright , so let's roll for some initiative , or not initiative . Let's roll for some recap , with the exception of Matty , because he did less .

Speaker 4

That's what you meant by fat dragon . Okay , okay , okay , all right .

Speaker 6

So , justin , why don't you give us a recap from last episode ? It's me , I'm justin , okay .

So what we did was we had just finished fighting a magic shark and some kinds of weird tentacle monsters and we swept the room , made it all spick and span and tidy , and in the process , we got some loot , including , most notably , the cap of water breathing , which allows its wearer to breathe underwater as long as they use the command word to initiate it ,

which I still don't know what that is , and something , some kind of mask . I don't know what that is , but I wrote it down . It's to my lovers , love of my life .

Speaker 5

It's a liary .

Speaker 6

It's a liary . See , I didn't write that part down .

Speaker 5

It's the most probably emotional word Dark mahogany wood , lyre , lyre . How do you pronounce that it's a lyre ?

Speaker 4

It's a lyre , it's a lyre yeah . You know , so , brandon , one of our most popular episodes is called Do Every Remember's , where I reset the day on them about 22 times during a session and they started the they , they evolved the beginning of the episode . I was like , all right , you wake up in the morning .

Speaker 5

And then they went on this whole tangent about what they were doing and maddie always went outside to play as leer liar , lee ray leeay long wrist banjo long wrist banjo it got shortened to long rest banjo yeah , yes , but the the funniest part of that sorry to interrupt the whole the funniest part of that whole thing was the fact that none of us were prompted .

We didn't know it was coming , but we just went into exactly what we did the day before .

Speaker 6

Yeah , without any alteration in dorby .

Speaker 5

Uh , rob had no idea and he was just . The expression on his face was awesome , pretty incredible . He was like looking at all of us like we knew what was going on and we did not yeah , yeah , ironically , I never remembered we started .

Speaker 3

We started that day off with , I mean , we normally have like our morning routine of stuff that we do , but that day it was like a little bit above the top and it was completely unprompted and we had to do that same thing over and over and over until we shortened it to long rest banjo , and then moved on with the rest of the day . Yeah , I've killed .

Dorvi multiple times .

Speaker 6

It was a good time . Yep it was a good time . That was our recap inception of a third of the current time ago . Those tentacle monsters were called Chules . There were four of them . Let's see what else we got here .

Skogath went around trying to convince us maybe all of us , at least one at a time tried to get us to turn to his side and let him raise the baby Kraken all on his own in peace and solitude . Wars was kind of on the fence , like it met our short-term goals , uh .

Everyone else seemed to be pretty strongly , uh , against that idea , so we told him to fuck off . And then nines took a bunch of psychic damage from that big aboleth .

We got some potions of greater water breathing which lasts six hours each , because it's a mystical world we live in correct and it's not because your dm misread things no , it's because we have a custom item for a custom world , wonderful .

We trekked down into the underwater and swam for like 45 minutes along this passageway until we got to a big open underwater pit kind of thing where we found another aboleth who questioned us to try to determine our intent . We appeared to be on the same side , so we came in and saw a second aboleth around the same time as the baby .

Kraken came up from the center of that giant pit and kind of just bobbed around right at the surface of that thing and it made quick snacking work of both of the aboleths . While we fought it I think I had a couple highlighted notes here of some cool stuff that happened . Oh , we learned Krakens are immune to paralysis .

That's true , the Kraken did some pretty good chomp . Murder of the Aboleths , mm-hmm , yeah . So we went through a couple rounds of combat , killed the Kraken , and then we heard this resounding scream no , my God . And then another Aboleth showed up , who we have to assume is Skaboth Shogoth , shogoth , shogoth , skogoth .

Speaker 2

Oh wait , I wrote . No wait , it's Skogoth .

Speaker 4

Oh , it's Skogoth .

Speaker 2

Not Boss I don't know .

Speaker 5

We are all so good with names .

Speaker 6

Oh , m is use his snake belt , which is pretty impressive , it's true . After all this time , and yeah , I think that leaves us where we are . There's an angry faceless down . We're in underwater pre-combat , about to go into full combat . Are we gonna make a new thread for ?

Speaker 2

yeah , somebody real thread or a forum or I don't even know , full combat . Are we going to make a new thread for yeah ?

Speaker 6

A real thread or a forum , or I don't even know how to .

Speaker 3

Put it in there .

Speaker 6

There it is , I see it I had to refresh .

Speaker 4

Does anybody want to add anything ? That happened we all died .

Speaker 5

I don't think Skogoth spoke the previous session . Skogoth was talking to Glenn trying to convince Glenn . I don't know why anybody would get into Glenn's head to try to convince him to do something , but he gave up on that .

And then at the start of last session he was in Moore's head and I believe he tried to get or he got into Nine's head , but I don't think he ever tried to get into in more's head and I believe he tried to get . Eri got into nine's head , but I don't think he ever tried to get into monty's head .

I don't think he tried to convince monty , but but yeah he tried to scare monty okay , oh , okay . and then the abolets summoned the Kraken . They asked us to help them summon , but then they summoned them , not really sure why . They asked for our assistance summoning when they did it themselves , but then they asked for us to help kill it .

So yeah , that's all I got .

Speaker 6

As far as the battle went .

Speaker 5

My line was we killed the Kraken after it killed Diabolus . That is my summary of the battle .

Speaker 4

Nine is there anything special happen to you during the fight ?

Speaker 2

Oh , nothing too out of the ordinary . Oh , you mean the runes thing ? Yeah , that thing , oh right , yeah , I thought that was a dream actually . Yeah , so at some point during the fight , uh , after we were fighting the juvenile kraken , and after an attack , nines got runes on his arms .

So I imagine it was nines hit the kraken and the kraken's attacking struck back in , and and then , uh , the runes and the Krakens attacking struck back in , and then the runes went on to Nines' arms and burned into place . And now , every time he unarmed strikes , plus 1d4 damage . Baby , that's some Bruce Lee shit .

Yeah , 1d4 lightning damage for unarmed strikes and then just like I'm going to bulk in mind , meld and then do lightning damage to somebody's brain to cure them of their depression . Oh shit .

Speaker 3

It's like lobotomies for free , oh yeah , and .

Speaker 5

Nines actually was downed during the fight . He was . We had to bring him back up . Yeah , Indeed .

Speaker 2

But now I'm like super whole again with 51 out of 69 hit points .

Speaker 4

Yeah , I was going to say not like super .

Speaker 2

I mean that's pretty good , yeah , five out of seven . More hit points than I have .

Speaker 4

That's true . You do have the most hit points out of everybody here Me do . Glenn has 45 , so yeah , you have 51 , Glenn has 45 , Monty has 20 , and Morris has 33 .

Speaker 2

Oh , I thought you were talking about Max , your current .

Speaker 4

Oh yeah , Actually , currently you do not . No , Monty has the most hit points out of anybody . Max-wise Glenn has 80 max .

Speaker 5

It's likety has the most hit points out of anybody .

Speaker 3

max-wise Glenn has 80 max . It's like 20 is the most that we've got in the party . That's pretty bad .

Speaker 4

Yeah , alright . So yeah , you guys just defeated the Kraken , did some looting , applied some potions , healed a little bit and then , as you were looking around the room , you heard a massive yell throughout in all of your heads , from a voice that you're familiar with screaming about his dead god .

And then , through the walls , a large avalith creature appears , which is larger . This creature is larger than the two Aboleths you saw before and , based off of what , based off of the voice and him hearing you , you can safely assume that it is Skogoth , and I have started the session if you guys would like to join .

Speaker 2

Ooh , there's new stuff in maps you can finally select more than one token at a time . Yes , you can they're getting there , yeah , just like Zoom did . Is this the same place that we were already fighting ?

Speaker 5

Yes , yeah , there's still the dead body of the Kraken .

Speaker 4

Rawr , rawr .

Speaker 5

So Glenn will say we tried to save him .

Speaker 4

Glenn , at your remark , you feel an overwhelming sense of just sadness wash over you and you can tell that it's coming from the creature that's coming through the wall . He's obviously very upset about the whole situation , that the Kraken's dead . And then , immediately after the sadness , you feel anger and you know that it's directed towards you and your companions .

Speaker 5

So he didn't believe me .

Speaker 4

No , not at all .

Speaker 5

I don't even get a deception roll .

Speaker 4

No , you do not . Well , it's underwater combat .

Speaker 6

So it's got shorter range than normal . There you go . You gotta get closer to this .

Speaker 5

And so Glenn will say hey guys , I think he's mad at us , or she ?

Speaker 4

They . And then you hear boss , music start do we see the pictures ? Everything everything freezes immediately . Uh , you see on one side skogoth , versus , and then it shows all four of your photos Glenn Mors , nines and Monty .

Speaker 6

Do we get ? Like a screen freeze with like the title pool shift in as it zooms into our combat page .

Speaker 4

Yeah , everything freezes and it just shifts and just focuses on all of you , one at a time .

Speaker 2

I want to use Materia , alright , so .

Speaker 4

Wait , let me draw first , alright , so all of you , give me some initiative rolls .

Speaker 2

Oh and Morse you , you have inspiration , by the way oh yeah , unnatural 15 because of my goodness at being aware of it . I got a 13 because of my goodness at being aware Wasted my 20 .

Speaker 5

I got a 13 .

Speaker 6

Tan , I'm keeping the 7s going . That's another 7 .

Speaker 5

Oh , so my crappy roll is the first among us .

Speaker 4

Okay , and Monty , what did you get ?

Speaker 3

I got tan .

Speaker 4

Oh man , you guys are doing great .

Yep , alright , didn't realize we were going to have back-to-back fights , but used some stuff that I wouldn't have used , alright so Skogoth is going to run into the room , move forward a few feet and each of you are going to feel a resounding pressure on your on your heads or inside your heads , and this pain doubles over until your vision gets a little blurry .

And when you open , when you finally refocus and open your eyes around you , you see three other aboleths , all matching the same exact description , size and shape of Skogoth .

Speaker 2

Except , like it's still obvious that Skogoth is in the same position that he was before .

Speaker 4

There is a creature there in the same position that Skogoth was originally . So , Nines , you get to go first .

Speaker 2

Oh no , nines is going to call out Look out , guys , there are four of them now and then he's going to raise one fist and sprint forward . Never mind . Oh wait , I mean he's using his quarter staff . Okay , like as a Just holding the two-handed . He's gonna thwack the nearest teal colored Skogath , the run-up of I don't know 15 feet , yeah , about 15 feet .

Speaker 4

15 feet north and you're gonna smack the Skogath over there . Give me an attack . Feet 15 feet north and you're gonna smack the Skogoth over there , give me an attack at disadvantage .

Speaker 2

Oh , no , uh , I rolled an 8 and a 7 , so a 17 .

Speaker 4

A 17 does , does hit .

Speaker 2

Shall I roll damage or does ?

Speaker 4

Yes , roll me some damage .

Speaker 2

I'm rolling some damn 8 . Yes , roll me some damage . I'm rolling some damn A 4 plus 6 for 10 damage .

Speaker 4

Okay , alright , and Roll me a . I'll let you choose Nines . You can either roll me an Investigation check or a perception check .

Speaker 2

You receive the ability to roll a die Investigation or perception . I choose perception at a plus seven . Rolled an 11 for an 18 .

Speaker 4

All right . So , nines , as your quarterstaff passes through this creature or hits this creature , you see that it doesn't . It doesn't react as as uh flesh and blood normally reacts , as a physical being does , and it sinks a little too deep into this , uh , this , this being , uh it's .

Speaker 2

You do feel resistance , but it's not the resistance you expect yeah , I guess I wondering would nines think to continue attacking this creature or try for a different one ? That's up to you .

Oh , okay , I was hoping for any sort of hint as to what ability we were dealing with , but yeah , I guess I'll just hit it again , okay , and I'm going to use my free action to yell out about how squishy these things are . Perfect , but like in a disgusting way , like ew . All right 18 plus 10 for a 28 . Does a 28 hit , Mr DM ?

Speaker 4

It's a disadvantage .

Speaker 2

Like I said , a 13 plus 10 . Does a 23 hit .

Speaker 4

Mr DM , that does hit a plus 10 . Does a 23 hit ? Mr Demon ? That does hit a plus 10 . Goddamn yeah .

Speaker 2

Evening quarterstaff plus 2 . 8 damage on this Teoboleth .

Speaker 4

All right , the Teoboleth I mean Teoboleth as your staff hits it your staff passes completely through and the teal bluff disappears , Ta-da .

Speaker 2

Where did it go , guys ? It's kind of good that they're squishy , though he's going to run off and go hit another one . Okay , so I can , as a bonus action , use I'm actually going to spend a key point , I believe and use my flurry of blows on Yellowgoth , yellowgoth .

Speaker 4

All right , so you run a little bit to the east and go to hit Yellowgoth . Give me an attack at disadvantage .

Speaker 2

Disadvantage attack . I can't select that . I think I'm going to go with lavender At disadvantage . I rolled for a 17 .

Speaker 4

You have a crazy hit .

Speaker 2

Yeah , that does hit Hell . Yeah , so that's going to be 1d10 plus 4 bludgeoning damage for 7 . But also , look out , here comes a d4 for lightning damage . That's an extra 2 for lightning Ha-chow .

Speaker 4

I mean ka-chig-a , I forget which one is the cooler one . All right , so 9 to give me a perception or an investigation .

Speaker 2

Plus 7 to perception and I rolled an 8 for a 15 .

Speaker 4

Okay , you don't as your fist hits this . You're so focused on your fist you can't really tell if it sinks deeper into the creature than the previous one .

Speaker 2

It feels different . The lightning it's tinglier . It's not normally this tingly . I was thinking that , good , I'm glad we're on the same page . Okay , so one more . Maybe it's just that one fist . Maybe Maybe I kicked it because I'm holding the quarterstaff , whatever .

Maybe I tucked the quarterstaff and then a punch and I'm going to come back in with the other elbow right , so that way I'm messing both appendages At disadvantage .

Speaker 4

This isn't looking good , uh 15 , that does not hit , so as you come in , uh , yeah I knew as soon as I like , as soon as I tucked it like it felt wrong yeah , it's like should have gone out yellow goth comes up and grabs your wrist with one of his tentacles and pushes it aside .

Speaker 2

Hate that move . Yeah . I lost a tournament one time , like that Kid had tentacles . I didn't know that was allowed . You know , and maybe that's on me , I didn't read the rulebook , but like that's crazy , right , you wouldn't expect that .

Speaker 4

You wouldn't expect it .

Speaker 5

Glenn you're up , so Glenn will , I guess , move down towards Lavender . Yeah , yeah , but I can't get within range , so that's it Because I can't do anything . Oh , okay , you put all of them outside of our range , or outside of Glenn's range . The one that he could have reached has popped like a bubble .

Glenn will then say I told you we were trying to help him , so I'm closer now .

Speaker 4

So I'm closer now , Alright , so so I need no , he does not respond , Not during your turn anyway . So , Glenn , at your words , all these Skogoths turn to you at once and each of you start feeling that same pressure , except it's more painful , and I need you each to give me a Look through my notes . Look through my notes . Look through my notes .

An intelligence saving throw .

Speaker 5

I disbelieve Glenn rolls a 17 .

Speaker 3

Bonti got a 5 .

Speaker 6

That's good right , that's great . Yeah , Moore's got a 13 .

Speaker 2

Okay , sorry , I was typing , you're fine .

Speaker 5

you're fine and we are rolling intelligent saving oh shit , I could have done something , damn it good thing .

Speaker 2

Nines is character sheet smart alright 14 plus 3 for 17 .

Speaker 4

alright , so , glenn and nines , you are each going to take 12 points of psychic damage , and Moors and Monty , you're each going to take 19 points of psychic damage .

Speaker 3

Good start to the fight .

Speaker 4

And Monty , you are up .

Speaker 3

Well , with my one hit point remaining , I think I'm gonna start with a Potion of Greater Healing .

Speaker 4

Alright , Roll it for me . How much do you heal ?

Speaker 3

Uh , let's see it's a 44 plus 4 . 40 as in 4-0 . Oh hell yeah , not quite Not bad . That's 15 points . Uh , that is my action , though , correct ? Yes , that is correct , so , and I probably can't do anything else as a bonus action .

Uh , so yeah , monty's not looking too good , so he kind of staggers a little bit , drinks his potion , and he's just going to kind of get himself put together and I'm going to have to wait another round to do some more healing before I actually can do anything , because , oh yeah , ranged stuff doesn't work underwater , alright that's it for me .

Speaker 4

So question Monty , that fast-footed one or the fast-footed bonus action that you have , does that work underwater ? I didn't look at it .

Speaker 3

The Archadillon Stride no .

Speaker 4

Yeah .

Speaker 3

No , because it's fire .

Speaker 4

Oh , good point , good point .

Speaker 3

I mean , tell me , Brandon , does fire work in your water ?

Speaker 4

No , some bubbles come up . Alright , morris , your turn .

Speaker 6

Okay , first question I was trying to read up on . I'm trying to remember if in 5e , drinking a potion is an action or a bonus action . I know it's a full action to force it into somebody . It's a full action to drink it yourself . Yeah .

Speaker 4

Cool , let me verify real quick , because if not , we're going to go back to Monty's turn .

Speaker 3

Nah , it's my character . She's telling me it's an action . I think you're right , it's a full action , yeah it's a full action .

Speaker 4

Yeah , I have to verify because in Baldur's Gate it's full action . I have to verify because in Baldur's Gate it's bonus action . Yeah , I think Matt Mercer did that .

Speaker 6

Like God intended . Like God intended , oh yeah , cool . Well , in that case , I'm going to swim a little closer to nines over here and then I'm going to uh , start casting a spell , twirling my hands together underwater , making all these ripples and currents happen , nice .

And then I'm going to cast a six level enchantment spell and , as an enchantment wizard , when I would target one creature , I get to target two creatures that I can see . So I'm gonna target yellow gath and blue gath and they start dancing in place , tapping their feet , capering for the duration .

If they're immune to charm , they can't be affected by the spell , but they have to use all their movement to dance without leaving it space . They have disadvantage on dexterity , saving throws and attack rolls .

While they're affected by the spell , other creatures have advantage on attack rolls against it and as an action , the dancing creature can make a whistling saving throw to try to regain control of itself , and if it makes a successful save , then it is no longer dancing irresistibly .

Speaker 4

Oh nice , there's not even a save for that when you first cast it .

Speaker 6

Yeah , I just dance , bitch Alright .

Speaker 4

That's pretty good , Okay , alright . So which ones are you targeting ?

Speaker 6

Yellowgath , yellowgath and Bluegath .

Speaker 4

Alright , Yellow and Bluegath .

Speaker 6

And I moved , I spelled , I expelled , I cannot bonus . Oh , actually , maybe I can . I didn't collect my snake , so I'm going to have my snake , my sneaky snake , swim over to towards yellow gas , if he can get to him . Yep . And see if he won't take a chomp out of him .

Speaker 4

Okay , and a bite underwater that is at disadvantage . So give me an attack at normal .

Speaker 6

Oh yeah , it just hits , that's right , it's just a D6 , and then you make a con save . I think is what we decided .

Speaker 4

Yep , that's right , that's right , you're right .

Speaker 6

Does a 16 save Probably yeah , okay , I don't know , I didn't write it down . Let me see if I can find it . It seems like , yes , snake belt Con 14 save .

Speaker 4

Yep , it does , but I did 5 poison damage to your evil yellow gath , nice , okay , alright , yeah , so you guys see the blue and yellow blue and yellow Skogoths . They turn vertical slightly and you see them start moving their feet as if they're tap-dancing underwater . And it is a wisdom saving throw , you said .

Speaker 6

It takes a full action and it is a wisdom save yep .

Speaker 4

Okay , alright . So yellow failed , yes , and blue passed . So yellow failed , yes , and blue passed with a 16 .

Speaker 6

16 meets and it's a beat .

Speaker 4

So yellow is still dancing and blue is not Nice , and the purple one is going to move towards Glenn a couple feet and he's going to take a swipe with his tentacle . Too many damn tabs . Does a 17 hit ? Yes , okay , and you are going to take 11 points of bludgeoning damage . Okay , and 9s , you're up .

Speaker 2

Weird . Sorry , give me just a second . Okay , so Still sitting here in front of Yalogoth .

Speaker 4

Yeah , he's just dancing away , he's tap dancing away underwater .

Speaker 2

And if I hit him , does he stop tap dancing ? Should I move on to ?

Speaker 6

something else ? No , no , you get advantage on attacks against him , which makes it a straight roll for your disadvantage thingies yeah okay . He has disadvantage on dexterity , saves and saving throws and attack rolls .

Speaker 2

I'm going to do a twirl . Actually , can I use Because I have Shaped Water as a cantrip ? Can I move the water out ?

Speaker 4

of the way of my quarterstaff . Well , that is an action , so you Cantrips can be cast as bonus action .

Speaker 6

I don't know that we're using new rules . I think that's only sometimes what was happening . I think some cantrips can't , but I think typically in 5e rules that we're following are all full action .

Speaker 2

Unless they say otherwise . I might be thinking of like a sorcerer thing .

Speaker 5

Yeah it's casting time one action .

Speaker 4

Yeah , this is an action , so wake up .

Speaker 5

Sorry , I was just going to say it depends on the cantrip . Some of them say as a bonus action , but I will say that you can cast a cantrip and do an action or a bonus action . It's the only spell that you can do an attack and a spell at the same time at the same round , right ?

Speaker 2

Yeah , and I forget exactly what the rules are , so I'll just hit this dancing queen . And I forget exactly what the rules are , so I'll just I'll hit this dancing queen . I'm gonna give the old yellow goth a plus ten , beating that he or she will never forget for the rest of its natural life , which should be very soon .

Nice , all right , give me an attack roll Attacking Plus ten , natural life , which should be very soon Nice .

Speaker 4

Alright , give me an attack roll .

Speaker 2

Attacking plus 10 . 17 hit , that does hit .

Speaker 6

I'd like to take a reaction , please . I'm going to produce a small mace in the shape of a hand . I'm going to whack nines in the tushy . It's a good hit . In doing so , we'll provide him four bludgeoning damage and give him an extra attack .

Speaker 4

Yep . So yeah , nines , take four bludgeoning damage and you get an extra attack as well .

Speaker 2

Ow Ow . Okay , so I'm going to roll damage on this first . Is it an extra attack or an extra attack action ?

Speaker 6

Extra attack . Okay , it's an attack action we talked about . So if you get multiple attacks per attack , I mean we can check on it , but I thought you said attack .

Speaker 2

Yeah , because that's like adding haste right , you get an extra action .

Speaker 4

Well , no , it's an extra attack , it's not an extra action .

Speaker 6

It's the attack action , though right . So a fighter if I use it on a fighter like Monty , he gets two attacks with his bow . Yes , Because his attack action gives him two attacks . So it's not a free action , it's an attack action .

Speaker 2

But it's still two attacks , because I do two attacks per attack action . Yeah , you're telling me I got four total attacks . Is that where we're Correct ? My god , Okay . I guess three more .

Speaker 4

Yeah , roll your damage for the yellow one .

Speaker 2

So the damage was I rolled a nine plus six for 15 .

Speaker 4

Okay , yeah , your staff hits him and it takes damage .

Speaker 2

I want to make sure that I'm not wasting anything or inefficiently using the time .

Speaker 4

Oh , I understand . Yeah , no , he takes damage and he looks hurt , but he's still standing there Ready for another one .

Speaker 2

I'm going to smack him with a 24 . That does hit .

Speaker 4

I'm going to smack him with a 24 . That does hit . I'm going to do 7 damage . Okay , and as your staff passes through this individual , it disappears . Yeah .

Speaker 2

You , logoth , you are my boy . Now I'm going to go hit up Blue God I think I said I ran previously , but I think it's a running motion as I'm going to go hit up Blue God . I think I said I ran previously , but I think it's a running motion as I'm swimming forward . You know how it's hard to stay upright and swim forward .

I don't want to fight up that doesn't make sense , right . So I'm trying to walk forward .

Speaker 6

How does your running on water work ? Do you just choose to solidify the water beneath your feet ? I think it has to be only in liquid .

Speaker 2

I think it has to be the point where it meets a gas . It's got to be in service but if I shape it .

Speaker 6

You can also run up walls , though , right , I mean , if you wanted to . You can also just swim there .

Speaker 2

Now I got blue guy up next to me . I'm going to give him the same A 22 and a natural 1 for an 11 .

Speaker 4

The 22 does hit , the 11 does not .

Speaker 2

No shit 16 damage .

Speaker 4

Roll me a perception or an investigation roll .

Speaker 2

Perception is for 7 .

Speaker 4

Ka-chow for 21 . Alright , so yeah , 9, . You immediately recognize the hit . With your staff , you can tell this is a solid , real creature .

Speaker 2

I'm gonna , I'm gonna , blob out how real and solid this creature is .

Speaker 4

How are you blobbing that out ? I'm gonna blob out how real and solid .

Speaker 2

This creature is Perfect , thank you . How are you blubbing that out ?

Speaker 5

Perfect .

Speaker 2

Thank you .

Speaker 5

You know , with the potions of water breathing we could speak underwater .

Speaker 6

But I forgot for a moment . Don't play this character for him . Bill , he's blubbing . He's blubbing .

Speaker 5

I'd see Nines doing it anyway , even if he could speak underwater .

Speaker 2

Does that mean that they could all hear the swooshing sounds that I was making while swinging my quarterstaff ?

Speaker 4

Yes , absolutely , you should envelope those too .

Speaker 6

Just think about what cavitation sounds like you should envelope those two .

Speaker 2

Bro , what are you like ? Just think about what cavitation sounds like .

Speaker 4

Oh yeah , I hate that sound .

Speaker 5

Cavitation in a pump , or oh wait , it all sounds the same . Anything else ?

Speaker 2

Nines no , that is my four . Oh , no wait , I do get the B bewness right . I'm not gonna spend the ki point , I'm just gonna do a normal ass , regular unflurry of blows , unarmed attack .

Speaker 4

At disadvantage . I didn't make you roll . The last one's a disadvantage that was on me .

Speaker 2

Ooh , you right . You right because we on a undancing creature and I got me a 12 .

Speaker 4

Yeah , this blue Skogoth is staring right at you . He saw the lightning start to sparkle in your fist and he paid extra attention to avoid that and just dodged out of the way .

Speaker 2

Skogoth move like they do . Yeah , that's the end of my turn , though . That's all my stuff .

Speaker 4

Cool , cool , Glenn , you're up buddy .

Speaker 5

Alright . So Glenn will look at the lavender goth in front of him and he's not really sure if he should attack it , but he's going to because it's in front of him and he just got smacked by it , so he's pretty sure that it has to be taken care of . So he will using his dagger attack with a kaboom .

Speaker 4

All right , give me an attack roll , not at disadvantage , because you have a rapier .

Speaker 5

No , a rapier would be at disadvantage , but he's using a dagger , oh dagger . That's what I meant . I missed . I rolled a 14 .

Speaker 4

That does miss .

Speaker 5

So he will use his bonus action and use his other dagger . Okay , and that is a 26 .

Speaker 4

That does hit .

Speaker 2

Did I hear a sound effect ?

Speaker 4

Do I ? I think Justin just coughed . I hiccuped . I'm sorry . Yeah , I'm doing live sound effects .

Speaker 5

now I was like are you hearing the noises I'm hearing from my rolls ? That's weird . Didn't know that you guys heard those before . Alright , so regular damage of one there and 21 , and that's it . So 22 points of damage 22 points of damage .

Speaker 4

Can you give me a perception or an investigation ? Check your choice , Glenn .

Speaker 5

So he wants to work on his investigation . So he's not actually going to do that , he's going to roll a perception of 14 .

Speaker 4

Okay , yeah , glenn , as your dagger punches into this creature , it has a little too much give to it . You would expect to add a little more resistance as your dagger punches into it and when you pull it out , not as much blood as you would expect .

A little more resistance as your dagger punches into it and when you pull it out , not as much blood as you would normally expect comes out of this creature .

Speaker 5

Okay , but it stays there . Yes , 22 points of damage stays there . Okay , then Glenn will in his normal moves . He will also move Whoa , that's odd , I was moving the whole screen . He will move back 10 feet . He'll move back 11 feet .

Speaker 4

Alright , and what feature gives you that ? So you can disengage at any time ? What's it called again Rakeish ?

Speaker 5

Audacity , Rakeish Audacity , that's what it is . I believe Probably should know that off the top of my headish . Audacity that's what it is . I believe Probably should know that off the top of my head . I'm pretty sure that's what it is .

Speaker 4

Yeah , nope , that's initiative rolls , you don't need advantage .

Speaker 5

Oh sorry , fancy footwork , Fancy footwork .

Speaker 4

During your turn . If you make a melee attack against a creature , that creature can't make opportunity attacks against you for the rest of your turn . Okay , there it is . I knew you had a feature , I just didn't remember what it was called . Cool Alright , once again , these two Skogoths are .

You see them start raising their hands and they're starting gonna moving them back and forth quickly , and I need you all to make me an intelligent saving throw Like in Team America World Police . The secret , yeah , secret , handshake .

Speaker 5

What's your question , glenn Did ? Oh , I didn't know it was their turn , but okay , never mind 13 . I'm gonna die .

Speaker 3

Monty got a 9 .

Speaker 4

9 ?

Speaker 6

9 . Morris got a 26 .

Speaker 4

Holy shit , it's almost like that's what a wizard's known for Almost .

Speaker 5

Oh wait , a second , Never mind continue 9's what you get .

Speaker 2

Sorry , I forgot this is intelligent saving throw .

Speaker 4

again Intelligent saving throw .

Speaker 2

I got 19 plus 3 for 22 .

Speaker 4

Hell yeah , all right . So Nines and Moors , you guys are going to take 13 points of psychic damage . That was that all . And Glenn and Monty , you guys are going to take 21 points of psychic damage .

Speaker 5

All right , Glenn has a hit point , hell yeah .

Speaker 3

That's one more than Monty .

Speaker 4

Oh , is Monty down ? Oh yeah , Monty's down .

Speaker 6

Okay , mors also has 1 .

Speaker 4

HP . Alright Monty , give me a death saving throw .

Speaker 3

What is it ? What is a death saving throw ?

Speaker 5

It should when you go to 0 , it should pop up on your screen Uh , it's 10 and above , you win .

Speaker 3

Yeah , what uh ?

Speaker 5

When you take the hit points away .

Speaker 3

Yeah , it did pop up , but what do I click on here ?

Speaker 5

It should be a dice or something .

Speaker 4

Well , you just roll me a d20 . If it's above 10 , you save , if not , you fail that would be an 8 alright , so you click one of those circle failures .

Speaker 2

Yep , got it 3 failures before you get 3 saves , then you die forever yeah , so more is our sorry , monty , you uh also , you die in real life also , you take your life yeah that's the dnd story .

Speaker 4

That's that's the dnd story . We have this rotation , yeah it's good that you guys just click on the little involved in this combat .

Speaker 5

You just click on the little skull thingy and it rolls for you .

Speaker 3

Oh does it , oh does it .

Speaker 5

Nice , it pops up a screen and then you can roll .

Speaker 4

Monty , as you're sitting , as you're floating in the water a couple feet off the bottom , you feel your eyes start to get blurry and you're not able to focus on anything . And you feel your eyes start to get blurry and you're not able to focus on anything and you feel yourself start slipping from the world .

Speaker 3

Oh no .

Speaker 4

Bad news bears . You were up , buddy .

Speaker 6

Just reviewing my spells . Mors is going to swim a few feet over to Monty and he was trying to figure out how he would drink a potion of greater healing underwater anyways .

So he's gonna experiment on Monty and just kinda like pop one down his throat and then it's like tap the bottom like a Heinz ketchup bottle until all the potion comes out just right down the gullet .

Speaker 4

I'm just imagining Mors opening Monty's mouth , fitting the bottle into it and just closing the lips with one hand and tapping the top of it with the other .

Speaker 6

That's exactly it .

Speaker 4

That's right , alright , roll me some healing .

Speaker 6

That's 44 plus 4 . So two , three , four d four . How did we do ? Oh , that's pretty good . You got 14 plus four .

Speaker 4

You got 18 hit points back monty all right nice , yeah , monty , as you're , as you're sitting there , you feel , uh , you feel something moving your face around , and then your eyes immediately snap back to focus . And standing above you is Mors , holding your mouth closed around the lip of a bottle .

As he's tapping the top of a bottle into your mouth , I'm glad that's a bottle .

Speaker 5

And he looks like he's about to die himself .

Speaker 6

Yeah , yeah , it's true . Strictly speaking , would Monty be prone because we're all underwater ? He would just like go limp right , yeah , no , he's not prone .

Speaker 4

I'm gonna say no , hell yeah .

Speaker 3

Haha , the benefit we got you .

Speaker 6

We found the loophole . We found the loophole of these water fights For our benefit Of course , alright , and then I guess , I guess I'll send my trouser snake after what ? Now that I've roused Monty , I'll send my trouser snake over to Lugeth and strike you with another 1d6 poison damage .

Send my trouser snake over to Lugeth and strike you with another 1d6 poison damage . Oh , it's 6 poison damage . Alright , please attempt a con saving throw . Which one are you attacking ?

Speaker 4

I'm sorry , the Lugeth Alright , the blue one in front of 9s Constitution saving throw , that'll be only a 12 .

Speaker 6

I think that fails .

Speaker 4

It does fail .

Speaker 6

What does that even mean ? It's never happened before . Hold on Snake boat , become poisoned . Ha ha , let me look that up . I don't know what that means . Let's see Poisoned . A poisoned creature has disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks . Nice Love that . Good job , trouser Snake . Good job , trouser Snake . Too bad you're not holding my pants up anymore .

Speaker 4

Alright , anything else I'll P the T Alright . So , nines , the blue Skogoth in front of you reaches one of its tentacles forward and you feel this overwhelming presence inside of your head and I need you to make me a wisdom saving throw .

Speaker 2

Wisdom saving throw yeah . I got a plus four , so this is good yeah . And do you have a resistance .

Speaker 4

Oh , you have advantage to being charmed as well , so give me that it had advantage hooray , fucking .

Speaker 2

Is there such thing as double advantage ? It's not , I'm sorry , okay , no , well , then I get a 13 okay , so uh , so n you are currently enslaved by the Aboleth .

Speaker 4

What that means is you've been magically charmed by the Aboleth and it's until the Aboleth dies or is on a different plane of existence from the target . Charmed target is under the Aboleth's control and can't take reactions , and the Aboleth and the target can communicate telepathically with each other over any distance .

So , nines , the command you get in your head and I'm going to let you play it out as a character , but the command you get in your head is kill the wizard . No . Okay , so I'm going to let you play that out as a character , but that is the command you've received .

Speaker 6

Oh , poor Glenn Poor .

Speaker 3

Glenn Nine's thanks . Glenn's a wizard , that's true .

Speaker 5

Guess it was not clear .

Speaker 1

Kill the wizard the wizard , I'm fine with him attacking , but he needs to have indecision first .

Speaker 5

Like I don't know which one is the wizard .

Speaker 6

Morse is only a part-time wizard because he's a part-time barbarian .

Speaker 4

That's true . Alright , nines , you are up , and if you're not comfortable doing that , I will direct your turn for you . I can just type it for you , but Hang on a minute Nines .

Speaker 2

It like fuels this command obviously like yeah , of course it's like it's charmed , though right , yes , uh , and so , through long years of practice , nines has become incredibly adept at completely emptying his mind of every thought . Okay , and so he takes a moment , he takes a watery , blubbery breath .

And he empties , he crumples up all of his thoughts and he puts them into the wastebasket of his mind . And as an action , I use stillness of mind to end my charmed effect .

Speaker 4

Oh shit .

Speaker 6

Hell yeah .

Speaker 4

Nice .

Speaker 6

I'm going to play your character .

Speaker 5

Good job .

Speaker 4

That's awesome . Okay , is there anything else you'd like to do ?

Speaker 2

yeah , I like nines . His eyes will close for a moment and then he opens them back up looking at the uh , the blue goth , the real goth . And then I'm gonna spend a key point to fucking punch him in the face a couple of times . Okay .

Speaker 4

Yeah , the blue Skogoth is completely unprepared for this . He thought he had you enslaved , and so he is not prepared for this at all . So take the attack at advantage .

Speaker 2

Fuck . Yeah . Yeah , I do have a customized skill that I think I need to finish Build . No , is this right ? Sorry , I had advantage so 21 .

Speaker 4

It does hit , give me some damage .

Speaker 2

So wait , that says 1d10 plus 4 , but it's supposed to be 1d4 , right ? The lightning is an additional 1d4 , right .

Speaker 4

The lightning is an additional 1d4 , that's correct .

Speaker 2

Okay , yeah , that's not built in An additional 1 damage , so , yeah , 14 damage total with that unarmed strike . Okay , and then my next one damn it forgot advantage , so next one . Damn it Forgot Advantage , so a 19 .

Speaker 4

That hits 11 plus 3 .

Speaker 2

14 damage . All right , that's going to be like a kick , that's like a sweeping , like underwater using , like I'm going to brace off my quarterstaff a little bit or whatever . Just you know something cool Like eyes snap open and then kick , kick , Nice , yeah .

Speaker 4

So Skogoth is so like surprised by this . You see its eyes , where they were once focused on the battlefield in front of it , snap directly at you and the purple Skogoth disappears . Yeah , Nice , Anything else , Nines .

Speaker 2

No , I'm satisfied with that turn .

Speaker 4

That's a good move . Hell yeah , I did not even know your character had that ability .

Speaker 2

Which is funny , because you knew that I had advantage against charm , I did yeah .

Speaker 4

That's an elf thing . That's an elf thing . I knew you had that because you were an elf . Yeah good shit , alright , alright . So , glenn , you're up buddy .

Speaker 5

Alright . So , uh , glenn has very little life left and also doesn't have enough movement to get in range again , so Glenn will move his 30 feet and drink a potion .

Speaker 4

Okay , give me some healing .

Speaker 5

So I guess Glenn only has regular potions of healing . So seven whole points of healing . Okay , it's 2d4 plus 2 . Yep , so Glenn now has eight points of health . And that is his action , his movement and his bonus action . So for his free action he will shoot Luke off a bird .

Speaker 4

Well , roll me that bird at disadvantage , because then he range attacks .

Speaker 2

Hang on , because water is so much more dense than air .

Speaker 4

Continue , alright .

Speaker 2

I think maybe the Skogoth would get the message faster .

Speaker 4

Alright , it's that time I need you all to make me an intelligent saving throw .

Speaker 5

I don't know , I'm just going to plain old die .

Speaker 4

You all feel that pressure once again in your heads .

Speaker 2

Okay , my mind was empty of both thoughts , but I suppose I've had one more thought since then , so that makes sense . So 17 plus 3 for a 20 . 20 .

Speaker 5

Clint got a 10 .

Speaker 6

Mora's got a 25 . Holy shit , I mean I have 1 HP , it doesn't matter . Monty got a 25 .

Speaker 3

Holy shit .

Speaker 2

I mean I have 1 HP , it doesn't matter . Monty got a 5 . Yeah , it feels like the smarter you are , the more affected by this you are .

Speaker 4

Alright uh . Monty , you have a 5 . Okay , yeah , so Mors and Nines , you each take 2 points of psychic damage .

Speaker 6

Oh , that's twice as many as I had .

Speaker 4

And Glenn and Monty , you each take six points of psychic damage . Oh . Oops you mean psychic healing , no psychic damage . I hit the wrong button so close . Alright , so that puts Mors and Glenn down , correct ?

Speaker 5

nope , glenn is not down . Glenn has two hit points he used a healing potion .

Speaker 4

Oh , that's right nice .

Speaker 6

I used one too strictly , technically speaking , you did that is correct did any of it like waft out of .

Speaker 4

Mors just sniffed it up through his nose .

Speaker 5

Didn't all make it quite into Monty's mouth . Monty dribbled a little bit out .

Speaker 2

Yeah , do we have potions of water snorting as well .

Speaker 6

Have a really good time .

Speaker 4

Alright , I gotta get rid of one of these Monty . You're up , buddy .

Speaker 5

Alright Monty kind of shakes the guy who brought you up just passed out next to you .

Speaker 3

Yeah , he pretty much is like , barely like what ? No mores . And then he is going to cast a third level cure wounds on mores . Nice , we'll just keep taking turns reviving each other forever cast a third level cure wounds on .

Speaker 6

Mors , nice , we'll just keep taking turns , reviving each other forever . There you go , it's perfect , jeez 15 . Honeypot technique 15? .

Speaker 3

Yeah , yeah , 15 . 15 HPs , All right , 15 HPs . And he's gonna say , mors , keep going , you can do this . And then I'm also going to move half the distance , because I can't get all the way there .

Speaker 4

Get a bit closer , okay , and that's it for me . Okay , and that leads us to you , morse , alright , I will swim closer , so I don't have to stand up , that's kinda nice .

Speaker 6

That is nice . Get next to nines . Again . Now , on this map we're looking at , it does look like there's quite a bit of debris around . There is I think you mean debris , debris , verdigris all over the place .

Speaker 5

So where'd they give it away to does ?

Speaker 2

the nebris have vertigris , also ambergris .

Speaker 6

Hmm , inquiring minds well , looking at that rubble and stuff , I'm sure I'd be able to recognize a piece of that that maybe weighed 5 pounds or less . Yes , maybe like a shell or something , I don't know .

Speaker 3

See , this is about catapult . It works on objects that you . You don't have to see the object right . It needs to be like within sight it has to be close to you , but you don't have to see it right .

Speaker 2

Yeah , you don't have to be like , I think , directing your gaze at it like if you want to , if you want a star wars telekinesis , a fucking brick over your shoulder .

Speaker 3

I mean what stops you from like catapulting the atlas heart ?

Speaker 6

not more than or other . I mean his body's probably carrying the heart vital oregon yeah , I'm definitely not gonna that to happen . We're just going to fucking blood .

Speaker 4

Mansy killing spree . Give me that heart .

Speaker 1

You just crashed it against the inside of its brain , the .

Speaker 5

Aboleth's heart probably weighs more than five pounds .

Speaker 2

Yeah , I would say that it's a large creature , right ? I'm pretty sure you said Vital Oregon , Vital Oregon yes , that's not how you say it right . Are you talking about the state Vital Florida ?

Speaker 4

No , they like it pronounced Oregon .

Speaker 2

No , they don't Shut up . Hey , what is the name of the state that is home to Las Vegas and Reno ?

Speaker 4

Nevada , nevada .

Speaker 2

Correct Wait , which one Maddie was correct with Nevada .

Speaker 4

What did I say ? Nevada , nevada . Oh okay , learn something new , right ? Isn't that cool ? So you're going to try to catapult this guy .

Speaker 6

Yeah , the brick thing , shoot a catapult . Oh , he needs to make a dex save . I meant to use a spell slot . That works out fine . Make a dex save .

Speaker 4

Well , luckily , Abolists are very good at dexterity . They're not . They're not Does a 2 save .

Speaker 6

No , I do 16 hermit crab damage . Throw in a hermit crab . Yeah , take that .

Speaker 5

Does the hermit crab pinch him too ?

Speaker 4

Probably I would . Okay , yeah , a hermit crab slams on the side of this avalith and it recoils as the hermit crab grabs onto one of its , onto the side of its face , and it's just hanging there . Anything else , mors ?

Speaker 6

That's 16 damage . Yes , hell yeah , else . No , I'm going to stand next to the nines for no reason at all .

Speaker 5

Of course .

Speaker 6

My belt is going to attack again , with one point of damage . Alright , but he's already poisoned , so it doesn't matter . Yep , don't forget about the disadvantage on ability checks and attack rolls . Correct , correct , hell yeah .

Speaker 4

Alright , yeah , nines , this creature's not too happy with you , so it's gonna take some attacks at you , at disadvantage of course . Hell yeah , alright , so .

Speaker 5

A great use for throwing the hermit crab at it .

Speaker 4

Yes , Alright , Nines does a 20 hit .

Speaker 2

It does .

Speaker 4

Okay , I'm gonna roll a second attack right now 20 at disadvantage Jesus , it does .

Speaker 5

I'm going to roll a second attack right now 20 at disadvantage Jesus , it's got a plus 9 , dude .

Speaker 4

Eh A 17 does not hit . Nice . And a 23 .

Speaker 2

So you're going to take two of those attacks . Sure hope it's not a bunch of damage .

Speaker 5

You're a monk , you can just ignore it , right ? That's how that works .

Speaker 2

Let me see which skill I can use to ignore damage .

Speaker 4

Nines , you're going to take 21 points of bludgeoning damage .

Speaker 2

I cannot survive that . Do I have any reactions or anything Slow fall .

Speaker 4

You know what Nines .

Speaker 2

I forgot about my open hand technique . I could have been imposing some effects on this thing . Not a big deal , unlikely to succeed anyway .

Speaker 5

Can he use his deflect missile ?

Speaker 4

I don't think so .

Speaker 5

No .

Speaker 4

Yeah , this creature's looking real hurt . It's not looking great , nope , but neither is Nines .

Speaker 2

I can't do shit about that . So that takes me down . Do I roll a death ? Save immediately .

Speaker 4

On your turn . So now it is your turn . So yes , you have to .

Speaker 5

Oh , that's why they Okay . I was like you're not supposed to do it to your turn , but it was their turn right after they fell Got it so , 9th , give me a death save .

Speaker 2

Okay , I clicked the skull thing . Did it pop up a screen ? Yeah , do I ? Does this allow me to roll ? I don't remember what it looked like , I just rolled a d20 .

Speaker 5

Hold on , I would just rolled a d20 . Hold on .

Speaker 4

Yeah , I would just roll a d20 .

Speaker 5

Oh no , I guess there isn't .

Speaker 2

Failure says yeah , okay , straight , d20 . Here we go . Hey , it rolled over at the last second from a 5 to a 15 .

Speaker 4

All right , Give you that success and , glenn , you're up buddy .

Speaker 5

Alright , glenn will move forward just a bit to get in range and with his main hand dagger and saying kaboom , he will kaboom and attack the Shkogoth . Give me attack roll , jesus , freaking Christ . So then with his offhand he will also attack . But I don't have advantage , joy . No , you do not . I missed again . Jesus , fucking Christ 14 .

I'm pretty sure that misses .

Speaker 4

That does miss .

Speaker 5

Because I got a 13 and a 14 . Alright , well then , glenn will also move back again .

Speaker 4

But you didn't . Oh yeah , you just have to attack with the melee attack .

Speaker 5

Yeah , I have to attack , I don't have to hit .

Speaker 4

What an awesome ability .

Speaker 5

Okay , so that's that move action bonus done .

Speaker 4

Monty , you're up .

Speaker 3

Okay Question . Yep , mati , you're up . Okay Question If , say , the Aboleth were to attack nines when he's down , does that automatically increase his death counters or is it kind of like untouchable ?

Speaker 4

No , it increases his death counters At advantage and .

Speaker 6

At disadvantage should be straight oh okay .

Speaker 3

And then any damage is Is a death counter . Essentially Is a yeah is a failure right , yes , and then a crit and you have one success . Okay , got it . Just trying to think through stuff To plan out my turn .

Okay , monty is going to move up to the skogoth and with his , his dagger , not making a pun , uh , because that was literally I'll attack the dagger , kill everybody . Death by dad this is the end of the podcast .

Speaker 4

I got two dad jokes . Death by Monty .

Speaker 3

Y'all thought the joke was , I was only here to kill anybody .

Speaker 4

You were just my chance . Monty is the BBG you just didn't know . It Is Medi within melee range of me . He is within melee range of you .

Speaker 3

Okay , I got a 20 and a 21 .

Speaker 4

Ooh , they both hit . Give me some damage , oh wait .

Speaker 3

Was that disadvantage or is it a dagger ?

Speaker 4

It's a dagger , so it's straight .

Speaker 6

I'm sorry . What were you saying , justin ? I was was gonna whack him and give him more attacks , but I guess , hey , does that ? Do you have to comprehend the dad joke to take the dad damage ? No , no you get the intent .

Speaker 2

What ? What if I ?

Speaker 3

cast silence as I'm telling the dad joke . Alright , I'm not going to .

Speaker 5

So he should get plus five to his or plus whatever his dex is to his damage , right .

Speaker 6

Yeah , his normal dexterity . Yeah , yeah , his normal attack . It's not a straight 20 . It should be your proficiency plus your dexterity . Modifier .

Speaker 4

No , I was saying it's not at disadvantage because he's using a dagger .

Speaker 5

Okay .

Speaker 3

Here comes the damage . I got seven and a seven , fourteen total damage .

Speaker 4

Monty , tell me how you kill this big old Aboleth .

Speaker 3

He's like , ha , is it the best you've got ? Hardly scratched us ? And he looks down to nine .

Speaker 5

Every single one of us has been downed , or no , nope , glenn made it out without getting downed .

Speaker 3

True , as he plunges his dagger into its squishy XO something squishiness .

Speaker 4

Yeah , so you all feel a final push of pressure in your heads as this creature dies and it just releases out of Sorry . That pressure dissolves almost immediately as soon as you feel it , as you feel the creature leave your minds .

Speaker 3

And you all take 20 psychic damage .

Speaker 5

You all take 10 psychic damage that should kill you no psychic damage .

Speaker 4

Alright , so you are out of combat . Before we search the room and do anything , you guys mind taking a 5 minute ?

Speaker 5

yeah , I need a beverage maybe get rid of a beverage get rid of one and get one Burp . Does Justin's chair have speakers in it ? You're muted .

Speaker 4

Kind of looks like it . I'm not sure though .

Speaker 5

It looks like Maddie's chair is the same as mine , except for I don't have the pillow .

Speaker 4

I took the oh , yeah , it does .

Speaker 5

I actually don't like my pillow . I took the oh yeah , it does . I actually don't like my chair a whole lot , but it's okay , it's probably good for me . It's got the lumbar thingy that the pillow down can't see it .

Speaker 4

Oh yeah , I love this chair because it's got that on it .

Speaker 5

Is that a pillow ? Is that an arch as this ? Yeah , I love this chair because it's got that on it . Is that a pillow ? Is that an arch as well ? Yeah , yeah , I don't like it because it's not super comfortable , but it's probably better for me . As much time as I fucking spend in this chair Same Like probably 18 hours a day in this fucking chair .

Speaker 4

Yeah , I've spent more money on this chair than I've ever spent on a chair before . How much was it ? This chair was ?

Speaker 5

400 . Okay , I think this one is like 350 , 320 or something like that which is the most I've ever spent on one too , exactly , but we'll see how long it lasts . That's the thing , because I just got it like a couple weeks ago , so we'll see how long it lasts , if it stays . When I first got it , I sat down in my old chair .

I had a emerge which was probably like 200 bucks , I think . Um , it was really comfortable , but it's like leaning . Actually it's leaning the other way , because this is the way I lean , but uh , it's like leaning and it's like falling apart and like the armrests are all worn out and you can see we're starting to break down . So I got a new one .

I bought this one and got it , but that chair was like way more comfortable because it's like squishy when you sit down on it . It's soft , but this one is not , so , which is probably better . But yeah , this is a corsair the chair .

Speaker 4

I don't remember what my chair is . It is a . I can tell you . I did a lot of looking up for this yes , those are speakers , oh okay do you use them ?

Speaker 5

no ?

Speaker 6

not at all . Uh , I only use my headphones , so that's kind of cool . I can hook them up to my phone and play music .

Speaker 5

I added my speaker system . I see that , yeah , and I actually wasted money . I bought a Sonos , so it's a Sonos bar with surrounds Way overkill for a computer . That's right here . The speaker is like two feet long . That sits underneath my monitor . But I've been playing a lot of games where I don't want to wear my headphones all the time .

I want to wear my headphones a lot less than I used to because I got new headphones but I was sick of I had a dent and it's finally starting to go away off the top of my head .

Speaker 4

I just wear these all the time for work , for everything .

Speaker 5

Well , I don't wear headset for work . I have my Jabra speaker thingy .

Speaker 4

I do just because it keeps me from distractions that are going on in the house Lauren cleaning or cooking , or the dogs playing . It's easier for me .

Speaker 5

I get that and I don't want to be distracted , but I also would like to know if there's something going on in the house . Like if my girlfriend falls down the stairs or my dog falls down the stairs .

Speaker 4

They should do that on off work hours . When you're working , it's company time . Alright , everybody got a refill , ready to keep going ? Yes , all right . So , yes , monty , you have just killed Skogoth the Aboleth and as such , you get first rights to loot or first action for what you would like to do in the room .

Speaker 3

Should I mute my mic ? Since I did all the hard work here , I should get rights to it .

Speaker 4

Right , exactly .

Speaker 3

I think Monty's actually going to turn and look down at nines on the ground and is going to use a second level cure wounds on him and say nines , nines , come back to us and that's going to give you nine , Nine points for nine .

Speaker 5

He's actually floating next to you .

Speaker 3

Because we can't talk underwater . Yeah , I'll do that , then start searching around the room for stuff .

Speaker 4

Okay , anything else you'd like to do , monty ?

Speaker 3

No , alright .

Speaker 4

What would everybody like to do ?

Speaker 5

So Glenn is gonna think back , and does he think that Abolus can be cooked ? Sounds like Darkbait , he could use his cooking knowledge , skill .

Speaker 4

Did you just add this to your character sheet ?

Speaker 5

No , I have cooking utensils , intelligence , so basically just my cooking ability .

Speaker 4

Nines , you've had some very good seafood , including different types of squid . Glenn , you've had very , very good seafood , including different types of squid . Glenn , you've had very good seafood in the past , including fish , octopus , squid of various types , so these abalones don't look too far off .

You're sure you can figure out something to do with them oh yeah , Glenn is going to pull out his dagger .

Speaker 5

Actually , he's going to pull out his fillet knife and start butchering this abaleth .

Speaker 2

Somebody's been looking delicious in dungeon . I have that book .

Speaker 4

Okay .

Speaker 5

And meanwhile he's doing it . He will also search the body .

Speaker 4

All right , glenn , give me , as you're doing this , you get four Aboleth fillets . You also get a vial of Kraken blood . Sorry , a vial of Aboleth blood .

Speaker 5

Hang on .

Speaker 2

Wait , there's a Kraken over there too .

Speaker 4

There is a kraken over there , yeah .

Speaker 5

How come it's not letting me edit my ? Alright , I'll just put it in my notes . I'll have to add it later . Okay so you said four Aboleth bullets .

Speaker 4

Yep four fillets , A vial of avaleth blood and you're also going to find 122 gold pieces For what everybody else likes to do . Oh sorry , Gary , go ahead .

Speaker 5

I was just going to say . Once he's done with that , he will move on to the Kraken to do the same thing . But I'll let everybody else . You don't have to roll anything . Everybody else can go first . Yep yep yep . And there's two more Abolus .

Speaker 6

Oh , the Kraken ate them . Are the bodies still around for the other Abolus ? No , they're not .

Speaker 2

I mean they would be inside the other Kraken .

Speaker 6

He didn't consume them completely right , He'd probably drop them down the hole .

Speaker 4

Oh yeah , you can go down the hole if you'd like .

Speaker 5

Wait , don't , don't Stop .

Speaker 4

Glenn has two hit points .

Speaker 5

He's probably not going to do that .

Speaker 3

Yeah , monty , just kind of looking around the room seeing if he sees anything catches his eye , Primarily looking for the exit .

Speaker 4

Monty Just by the way we came yeah , monty , give me a charisma saving throw charisma saving throw .

Speaker 3

Yeah , not very good at these things like called saving throws , uh , seven all right monty .

Speaker 4

You feel the urge , um , sorry , you're pushed and you feel yourself drawn to the mouth of the Skogoth and you , with his mouth open , you reach into its mouth and grab something in the back of its throat and as soon as you do that , you feel a burning on your right forearm and you pull back from the pain and , sitting there , you see a symbol that is the

same type of symbol that you've seen all over the town the spiral , with spirals coming off of it , and so I now need you to . You can add to your inventory or somewhere in your notes that you now have the . What did it do ? The Kraken's Mark ?

Speaker 3

Kraken's Mark Okay .

Speaker 6

I'll add that . Like branded by it , or he just has a .

Speaker 4

It is branded onto his forearm . What is Nines doing ?

Speaker 2

Nines is going to look around in dismay at all of the clouds of his blood . Oh no , oh no .

Speaker 4

Because Nines has a , nines has to collect the blood that has been spilled .

Speaker 2

Yeah , it's like it's kind of a , it's part of his religious upbringing and so if you question it , then you're a bigot and he just needs his blood back . Don't think about it .

And to that end , he is going to use wholeness of body , uh , putting his , like , resting his quarter staff and the crook of his elbows the crooks , if you will and then putting his fists together and then putting the soles of his feet together .

He's gonna float in the water and glow slightly as wholeness of body takes effect and all of these nebulous clouds of blood tenting the water are going to form into globules and start streaking back to him . However , he only gets 33 of them back , leaving him like 27 globules down .

Speaker 4

Okay , Alright , yeah , so .

Speaker 2

Yeah , and so using through pure chesmet , right it's . What other situation would this cantrip to shape water come ? In such great utility Because he goes around and , like , uses the cantrip to remove the water from around the blood that has formed in the droplets as it was trying to get back to his body but failed and he's gonna drink them . Okay , it doesn't .

It doesn't have the same effect , but like he feels better right , yeah , uh , yeah .

Speaker 4

So nines , you see , uh , all this , all this blood starts rushing towards you . You , you reabsorb it into your body . The one , the the pieces are the uh , gobbledygooks of blood . That , the one , the the pieces , are the gobbles of blood that haven't been pre-absorbed into your body .

You go around and drink them up and by the end of it , you're pretty satisfied that the blood is either dissipated in the water or you've been completely absorbed by you .

Speaker 2

There's no blood remaining yeah , nines will glove a sigh of relief , morris .

Speaker 6

Morris is now at least a little concerned that Nines is some kind of auto-vampire .

Speaker 4

An auto-vampire , auto-cannibalism .

Speaker 6

Morse will swim up towards where Skogath came in from . He's going to cast a first level Cure Wounds on himself as he goes to get a D8 plus 4 HP back .

So I'm going to take 11 HPs back and I'm going to go up there and just kind of peek through that opening to see what I can see , if this is like a Dragon's Lair or something we don't want to miss out on , some treasure or more intel , or maybe get some more contact information for his people that we can give to the town , like anything that we can use

to help .

Speaker 4

Alright Moritz , give me a perception roll , perception roll , sure .

Speaker 6

It's going to be worse than my passive . It is significantly worse than my passive . It's a 12 be worse than my passive . It is significantly worse than my passive it's a 12 .

Speaker 4

Give me Roll 1d4 . For me it's a 4 Alright . So In the debris you see the gleam of something that's sticking out of the rocks and From where you're at you can tell it's some kind of rod or staff . It's about 10 feet in front of you down in the rubble .

I'm gonna go touch that thing , I'm gonna pick it up , okay , yeah , so mores , add a rod of the Kraken to your inventory . You do not currently know what it does .

Speaker 3

You just got a Kraken penis . Did you say Kraken or ?

Speaker 4

Quacken .

Speaker 6

I said Kraken , okay , because this summons bills all over again , a lot of bills . Is that a real item that I should be able to find ? No problem .

Speaker 4

It is not . It is a homebrew item . Okay , then we'll discuss it later , I suppose . Yes , we will . Alright , anything else , morse ?

Speaker 6

No , go on any kind of no , you don't see anything else out there other than that item .

Speaker 4

It's pretty dark and murky . There's a lot of silt everywhere . You do see a couple wrecked ships , so if you wanted to , you can go and try to explore those , but nothing really catches your eye from where you're at .

Speaker 6

Can I go peer down this dark hole ? Is that the Kraken's body is semi-blocking ?

Speaker 4

Yeah , absolutely . You and Glenn arrive at the same time to the Kraken .

Speaker 5

Hell yeah , glenn will butcher the Kraken while searching it . Okay .

Speaker 4

Uh , glenn add .

Speaker 5

Do you want me to do a skill roll ? I have Kitchen Utensils Dexterity for this .

Speaker 4

Glenn , add seven Kraken fillets to your inventory . Okay . And you're also going to find a . Uh , as you're butchering it , you're going to find in the stomach of the Kraken a trident . Okay . Add a trident of the deep to your inventory . You currently do not know what it does .

Speaker 5

Okay , it's not something that's in the book , okay .

Speaker 4

That is correct .

Speaker 5

You said seven Kraken fillets , no blood .

Speaker 4

No blood . Okay , he's uh , also wants to take the tongue you want to take the Kraken's tongue .

Speaker 5

Mm-hmm For food . He thinks he can cook it up .

Speaker 4

All right , add one Kraken tongue to your inventory . All right , I got to see how much does a Kraken tongue weigh .

Speaker 6

I think a whale's tongue is like 7 tons , right , I think that's his dick right .

Speaker 5

You said it's a baby Kraken . How much does a Kraken tongue ?

Speaker 4

weigh A baby Kraken tongue , so a juvenile Kraken tongue . So a juvenile Kraken tongue is expected to weigh between 50 and 200 pounds .

So let's say that you add the Kraken itself weighs 200 pounds right no , the tongue of a baby Kraken might weigh 50 to 200 pounds , depending on its age and size because a Kraken is too tall okay , okay , so he'll take pieces of it .

Speaker 5

Yeah , age and size Because a kraken is two tons , okay , okay , so he'll take pieces of it .

Speaker 4

Yeah , yeah . So a kraken , a baby , a juvenile kraken is two tons right .

Speaker 5

No , a full size kraken is two tons .

Speaker 4

Well , I'm looking this up . What's up , Morse ?

Speaker 6

Just whale facts , because you're asking about the whale dick . Whale dicks .

Speaker 5

I don't remember anybody actually asking , but okay .

Speaker 6

Less than a thousand pounds for the record , and then a blue whale's tongue is about 15,000 pounds .

Speaker 5

Okay , so seven and a half tons Jesus .

Speaker 6

I don't know why I know these facts . I'm sorry , I didn't know , the dick thing , but you know the tongue .

Speaker 5

Right , so he'll take about 10 pounds or so of the Kraken tongue . 10 to 15 pounds of the Kraken tongue . Alright , add 15 pounds of Kraken tongue to your inventory . He obviously wouldn't take more than he could carry Right .

Speaker 4

Okay , okay and .

Speaker 5

Did Morse see anything down the hole ?

Speaker 4

Oh , yeah , yeah , yeah , I have darkvision . I knew you had darkvision .

Speaker 5

I think I have darkvision too .

Speaker 6

I'll even .

Speaker 5

Can I give him an assist with dark ?

Speaker 6

vision . Yes , sure , yeah , yeah , I'll cast Dazzling Lights and send them down as far as they can go about 120 feet down to see if there's anything drawing their attention .

Speaker 4

Yeah , so you see the wall getting less smooth as it goes down . It's getting rockier as it's going further and deeper down . You don't see anything sticking out from the walls , but the hole itself goes much , much deeper than 120 feet .

Speaker 6

Hell yeah , do I have any chemical glow sticks ? I could just drop one down .

Speaker 4

I don't think you have any chemical glow sticks .

Speaker 6

Let me just make one real quick .

Speaker 4

You currently don't have a crafting table .

Speaker 6

Oh shit , alright , I'm going to recall my trouser snake to be my belt again . Okay , that's important .

Speaker 4

Yeah , the trouser snake wraps around your waist and grips its tail between its teeth and the front of your pants .

Speaker 6

Oh , that's what we're talking about . You know , I didn't really think about that . Would have been fun if we ever do an underwater adventure game . I was like would you have brought all your gear with you , because now , theoretically , I've got a soggy bedroll strapped to my back .

Speaker 4

Yes , you do . Yes , all of your gear is wet .

Speaker 5

I put all of my gear in my bag of holding before we went in .

Speaker 4

You did not say that .

Speaker 5

No , I put all of my gear in my bag of holding before we went in . You did not say that , no , but I did it on my character sheet before we actually went in . But you didn't tell me that it's fine , I'll cast freaking Prestidigitation and everything's dry .

Speaker 2

Perfect , let me shape that water in my cantrip Shape .

Speaker 4

All right , Zaya . Is there anything else you would all like to do on the temple ?

Speaker 5

Alright , is there anything else you would all like to do in the temple ? Did we search the ?

Speaker 4

entire thing . Yes , you have searched it .

Speaker 3

Is leaving an option . Can we do that what ?

Speaker 4

would you like to do , Monty ?

Speaker 3

Leave .

Speaker 4

Yeah , you guys going out the same way you came from ? Are you going out the hole that Skogoth entered from ?

Speaker 5

I thought he just melded through the wall . I didn't know . There was a hole there .

Speaker 4

No , there's a hole right there . Yeah , oh .

Speaker 5

It was creepier that he just kind of came out of the wall , Like there was a painting of an avalith and he just kind of came out of the painting . But uh , I mean all leechs in the same place doesn't it . Glenn is ready to leave as well and he says so to Monte . But he says do we ? How do we ? How big is an apple with ? How big is it ?

Better yet , how big is an apple with head ?

Speaker 4

They are Apple . It's our large creatures . Yeah , they're large operations , so that means they stand . They're mostly head right . They just have tentacles underneath of them , so they're heads . Blah , blah , blah , blah , blah blah .

Speaker 5

How are we going to prove to this person that hired us that we killed this thing ?

Speaker 4

Monty , as Glenn says that you feel a burning on your forearm .

Speaker 3

Monty will look at his arm .

Speaker 6

Did you say that out loud , Glenn ? How are we going to prove it ? Yes , I have a spell that might help . And then Monty grabs his arm and says Ah . And I'm more or less distracted looking at Monty .

Speaker 5

Do we all look at Monty ?

Speaker 3

Yes , Is that supposed to be the thing that we can show Brandon ? What are you telling ?

Speaker 4

us .

Speaker 3

Did Timmy fall in the well ?

Speaker 4

again , as Glenn says , that your arm seems to react to it and you get the sense that you can show this as a sign that you defeated these . Uh , the ablath and the kraken . Um , but you also feel a strange , a strange power coming from it , is it ?

Speaker 3

the same markings that uh nines have is like nine , nines and mores , or uh mati are now Nines and Mors or Mati , are now tattoo buddies .

Speaker 4

No , the tattoo that you have is a single marking on your forearm , on your right forearm , and it's one of those spirals , the spirals coming out of it . Nines has runes in it and if Mors were to try to read it , it's written in infernal and it says lightning on each of his arms .

Speaker 3

Oh , okay , got it . I believe if we show them this Well , I probably don't know , it's called Mark of the Kraken , you do not this and he holds up his arm that might be sufficient , but who knows what this politician is going to want from us next . I feel her promises are no good .

Speaker 6

Well , I can send a message to her right now , letting her know that we've killed the Kraken and the Aboleth . You should do that . Telling her that would be a bad thing .

Speaker 3

But let's get out of here first . But you can send her that while we're on our way .

Speaker 5

So Glenn will turn and look at Morse . You said that you might have something else A spell .

Speaker 6

Yeah , the spell . I can send a spell to her to let her know from where we are right now , that we have done the thing , and if she needs something in particular , like a tooth or I don't know , like a sucker or something I don't know what she needs , but if she did , we are here . Yeah , why don't know what she needs ?

But if she did , um , we're here .

Speaker 5

Yeah , why don't you go ahead and do that ?

Speaker 6

we can gather stuff up and get things ready to go hell , yeah , uh , so I will cast sending , which requires that I'm familiar with my target . Uh , she will hear the message and it's in their mind and she'll know it's me and she can answer immediately . It's got to be 25 words or less .

I'm trying to think of that lady's name Just quickly trolling through my notes here Guard .

Speaker 5

Thornwell Counselor .

Speaker 6

Thornwell , counselor Thornwell , alright . So I'm going to send a message to Counselor Thornwell , counselor Thornwell , counselor Thornwell , alright . So I'm going to send a message to Counselor Thornwell , something to the effect of We've dealt with Skogoth and the Kraken , the murder should stop . We've dealt with Skogoth and Kraken , the murders should stop .

Do you require proof ? I guess is the last thing I'll send . That's under 20 .

Speaker 4

Yes , it is . You immediately get a response back , do you ?

Speaker 3

have a piece of the Kraken .

Speaker 6

Got a stone , marcel Smork , and look at Glenn , and I'd have to recast it to send it again . But I guess I probably don't need these . I'll just leave it at that . Always leave them wanting more .

Speaker 1

You know that's what they say , especially when it comes to your superiors and the information that they asked for ?

Speaker 2

does Morse say your superiors and the information that they ?

Speaker 5

asked for . Does Morse say any of that ? Out loud what she said .

Speaker 6

Oh yeah , in standard Morse style , I'll have his mental thoughts , our verbal thoughts , and I will parrot back what she said . Oh , she will need a piece of the Kraken , so I think you've already got that covered , glenn . Yep , I wonder how she want it cooked . I just can't wait for Glenn .

She will need a piece of the kraken , so I think you've already got that covered , glenn .

Speaker 5

Yep , I wonder how she won it cooked .

Speaker 4

I just can't wait for Glenn to slap 15 pounds of kraken tongue in front of this counselor .

Speaker 6

What is this ? That's the smallest whale tongue I've ever seen .

Speaker 5

All right , so I guess we're ready to go .

Speaker 4

Okay , okay . So yeah , uh , yeah , you guys make your way back through the temple . You uh , leave the temple , start walking back through the town and you eventually make it back to the uh , bard Rock Cafe where Counselor Thornwell is sitting . And uh , you walk through the door and she is sitting there with a large table .

She already has a few plates of food out for all of you and mugs of ale , almost like she was expecting you , and she stands up at your approach .

Speaker 5

Real quick on the way back after we get out of the water , for those that aren't able to do it for themselves . Uh , glenn will dry everything out , perfect and more .

Speaker 3

He'll do his first , of course , of course , but then monty , as he's doing that he he purses his lips , goes not .

Speaker 6

Thanks what never mind , you want to be a wet cat , thanks , what ?

Speaker 5

Never mind , you want to be a wet cat . Is that ? I don't know if that's a joke .

Speaker 3

It's a bad joke and everybody takes within 20 feet .

Speaker 6

Monty stabs himself with a dagger .

Speaker 4

Monty , as soon as you are dry , you do feel almost a longing to go back into the water .

Speaker 3

Uh-oh and Monty's like it doesn't affect you at all at the moment , you just . Extra fluffy now .

Speaker 4

Extra fluffy .

Speaker 3

He sees his arm going towards the water and he grabs his wrist and puts it back to his side .

Speaker 5

Glenn will also be repairing , using mending to repair all of our equipment that has taken damage .

Speaker 4

Got it Alright so , yeah , you get back to the Bard Rock Cafe . Counselor Thornwell stands up and as soon as she sees nine , she stands up to her full height and she says oh , welcome back , have you been successful ? And she's staring directly at Nines .

Speaker 2

Yes , your worshipfulness , I was able to get most of my blood back , thank you , your blood . Absolutely the most important part of my life force .

Speaker 4

Of course that makes sense . It was a linear thing , but I got it . That makes sense , I suppose . Mm-hmm . So you're okay then .

Speaker 2

Blessed be . Yes , Thank you to the All-Mother for the All-Father's whole world blessing .

Speaker 4

You all hear Counselor Thornwell under her breast say he's so good-looking , he's so good looking .

Speaker 3

Monty will walk up to Thornwell and hold out his arm and say the Kraken is now dead . Can you please fulfill your end of the bargain ? It is long overdue .

Speaker 6

Maybe not tonight , though we fulfilled our Kraken .

Speaker 2

It is long overdue . Maybe not tonight , though we fulfilled our Kraken . And now it's time for us to fulfill your Kraken .

Speaker 4

Yeah , Counselor Thornrell is very interested .

Speaker 2

Why is she looking at me like that ? This is so uncomfortable . He says that very loudly , she slowly pushes .

Speaker 4

Monty's arm away and walks towards Nines .

Speaker 5

Glenn will say just ask Mors about his relationship with .

Speaker 3

Jasper , yes .

Speaker 5

Jasper . That'll help you Good job . I was going to have to go back to my notes .

Speaker 2

Nines is going to approach or respond directly to her . Lady Thornwell , I understand that you are smitten with me and . I want you to know that I will take full responsibility and will be the best father mitten with me . And I want you to know that I will take full responsibility and will be the best father for whatever comes out of your vagina .

Speaker 4

Alright . That's happened . Thornwell , not used to being spoken like that . You see her blush she flushes a deep scarlet red and she walks over to the bar quickly , while not used to being spoken like that . You see her blush she flushes a deep scarlet red and she walks over to the bar quickly .

And you see her passing some money over to the bartender and as she walks back , she hands you a key to room two Just room two , and then she is ready to continue the conversation .

Speaker 6

Moores moves next to Glenn and elbows him and says Bonnie .

Speaker 5

Glenn laughs yes , very .

Speaker 4

All right . So , counselor Thornwell , with what Monty is saying about filling her bargain , the end of the bargain , she says yes , of course , please , please , stay here for the night , fill your bellies , drink to your heart's content , get a nice rest in , and then at the morn you will have a ship available to you to take you to your destination .

Speaker 3

How are we doing on our timeline , like , should we be trying to get on the ship and sleep on the ship ?

Speaker 4

Two days have passed .

Speaker 3

You have plenty of time okay , oh , very well , and Monty's ready to retire , guys , I she forgot her key in my hand no , she's that's uh , she's .

Speaker 5

That's the room she's letting you use .

Speaker 1

So you should just go in there and take a nap in that room . That's your special room .

Speaker 2

No , I don't , it's more a meditation thing . I understand what you're saying . Thanks , nine's gonna march off .

Speaker 3

Monty . As he's leaving , monty will say Nine's play hard to get to the Nice , play hard to get to the buddy .

Speaker 2

Clear home to get to the buddy . Thank you , yep you too , sir . Sir . I don't even know what you can say .

Speaker 4

Clear home to say to you too , buddy .

Speaker 3

You said play hard to get buddy , but I like yours better . That's it , Monty . Kind of looks like there's nothing even close . He'll figure it out .

Speaker 4

That's good um .

Speaker 5

Gladwell Nudge Bors . That's funny that's vigorously um .

Speaker 4

so Councilor Thornwell walks once again over to the bar . That's vigorously so . Councilor Thornwell walks once again over to the bar and comes back with two keys , one for room three and one for room four , and hands one key to Glenn and one key to Monty .

Speaker 2

Man , I'm getting very mixed signals now .

Speaker 3

Monty takes it and storms off .

Speaker 4

Okay , is anybody talking to Mors at all ? He's just leaving him .

Speaker 5

Glenn will . Hey , Mors , you might want to catch up to him .

Speaker 6

Oh , bedtime already , okay .

Speaker 5

It is . What time is it ?

Speaker 4

It is well past sunset . It's close to midnight . Are time , is it ? It is well past sunset . It's close to midnight . Are there people drinking ? There are a few people still in the bar and Counselor Thornwell has laid out food and drink for all of you . If you'd like to stay up for a while .

Speaker 6

Are there slot machines here ?

Speaker 4

There are no slot machines here . Fuck Mors is hungry . Are there slot machines here ? There are no slot machines here .

Speaker 6

The fuck Mors is hungry , he will go sit to eat . Is it troll again ?

Speaker 4

Ogre . No , it's seafood , a lot of fish .

Speaker 5

Hell yeah . So Glenn will sit down and eat .

Speaker 4

Is Monty going right up to the room ? Yeah , yeah , monty is okay , yeah , so , monty , you're in room 3 okay you open the room , there's two medium sized beds in the room with a small table between them , and you're able to sleep for the night so Glenn will eat food and socialize and try to get more information on general happenings and whatnot . Okay .

Speaker 6

Yeah , mors hangs out with Glenn for a while , has a couple drinks . Is this a busy establishment ? I mean it can't be too bad if Hornwell hangs out here .

Speaker 4

No , it's not very busy at all . It's large . It's pretty well kept , so it keeps most of the riff-raff out . It seems to attract the middle class of the region .

Speaker 5

Is there any gambling going on ?

Speaker 4

There's no gambling . Is there anybody singing ? Um , no , there's nobody singing , nope , just a pub .

Speaker 5

Silent it's completely silent .

Speaker 4

Just a bunch of people drinking and eating and enjoying the company .

Speaker 6

I think Thornwell had like a center bar or like a center table or like a corner or booth .

Speaker 4

She has a corner booth . And then she went to go hang out with Nines I presume Thornwell has already started walking up the stairs while you guys are doing all this stuff .

Speaker 2

But Nines went up first right Because after N started walking up the stairs while you guys are doing all this stuff . But Nines went up first right Because after Nines marched up the stairs , yeah . So Nines went to room two . Okay . Yes .

Speaker 6

Morse will pull out his painting supplies and paint a picture of the front entrance like the boat building thing , because it kind of struck him , it was kind of a cool little thing to see . And when he finishes that painting he's going to go to bed . He's going to go wake up , monty , and go to bed , perfect .

Speaker 4

Is the room locked ? I ?

Speaker 6

presume it is .

Speaker 4

Monty , did you lock the door behind you ? You locked the door behind you , Monty .

Speaker 3

I muted myself . No , Monty didn't lock the door .

Speaker 5

He knew more is needed to get in Perfect , but he is in there sleeping and I don't think he'll wake him up from his slumber .

Speaker 3

Okay , sorry , man it's okay , I just gotta run and chat with Lindsay real quick . I'll be back in like two seconds .

Speaker 4

You got it bud .

Speaker 5

So Glenn will check . So yeah , there's nothing really cool since there's no gambling and no music . So Glenn will pretty much eat his food , make conversations with people and see if he can get any more information about anything interesting , and if he does not get any interesting information , he will probably go to bed .

Speaker 4

All right , Most people that you talk to are scared of all the killings that are going on , and when you try to explain to them that you've cured the city of that situation , they either don't believe you or they're so happy that they drink themselves into a stupor .

Speaker 5

There's people that don't believe me . Hmm , yes , okay , okay , alright . Any interesting information that I get , other than that people are scared and don't believe me ?

Speaker 4

Um , yes , sorry , pulling up notes . Yeah , so you do hear a rumor about Dead Pelt Shadows , that it's home to a bunch of that . It's home to a particularly strong clan of lycanthropes , but you're not clear on the type of lycanthropes that it's home to .

Speaker 5

Okay , all right , anything else ?

Speaker 4

No , nothing else . Nothing else , I know . Okay , alright .

Speaker 5

Anything else ? No , nothing else . So before he goes to bed he will swing by the kitchen and ask the cook to let him know when they're going to start cooking in the morning .

Speaker 4

Yeah , you get a response from the dwarf cook and he says , yes , I'll send the boy up to get you . Uh , in the morning all right , thanks , um .

Speaker 5

And then he , he pulls out one of the kraken fillets and he said hey , could you marinate this in a , um , a sea salt base with some garlic and clove , and let it marinate overnight .

Speaker 4

I don't . I'm sorry , Master Ralph , I don't have any cloves .

Speaker 5

Oh well , glenn will reach into his pouch and hand him some cloves .

Speaker 4

Oh well , thank you , I don't . We've never had this spice in this area .

Speaker 5

Okay . So he explains to him that you just take a mortar and pestle and you just grind it up into a fine powder , mix it into an oil with the sea salt and the garlic and the clove and mix it in the oil and make sure you have a good layer over the top of the fillet and let it soak .

Speaker 4

Okay , the cook nods his head with enthusiasm and he takes the spices from you and he gets to work .

Speaker 5

Okay , and then Glenn will go to bed .

Speaker 4

Alright . So , Nines , I'm not going to ask you to RPG out a whole sex scene here with me , but no , but we are .

Speaker 2

Do you accept or reject ? Why are you assuming that's what's going to happen ?

Speaker 4

Do you accept or reject Counselor Thornwell's advances ?

Speaker 2

So Nines has gone up to the room to meditate .

Speaker 4

Counselor Thornwell unlocks the door and walks in and she removes her coat .

Speaker 2

And Nines is sitting there like just , eyes closed , floating a few inches off of the ground , soles of his feet together , knuckles together , he's just like super meditating . He's taking four hours . He's long rest .

Speaker 4

So Nines doesn't realize that Thornwell has walked into the room .

Speaker 2

No , he is completely aware . Okay , but to all outward appearances he is completely aware . Okay , but to all outward appearances he is asleep , meditating . Uh , I , I won't say dead to the world .

I'm sure she thinks she could speak to him , but what could she possibly say that makes him think that what she has going on is more important than meditating for 4-0 ?

Speaker 4

Yeah , so Thornwell's going to walk past Nines , she's going to drag her nails from the bottom of his left bicep up his shoulders and , as she's walking by , she's going to climb into the bed and she's going to start speaking to him .

Speaker 2

Okay , nines continues to meditate , okay , do you pray when you meditate , just out of curiosity . I don't know , because early on the prayer and meditation are very different . You're allowed to pray during the day and you're allowed to pray during the day and you're allowed to meditate during the night .

Speaker 4

We know this , Okay , yeah . So Thornwell's going to try to get your attention a few times Just by . She's going to say to you she's going to ask you to join her in bed .

She's going to say that she's cold and she's going to say that the bed is more comfortable than the floor over there , Even though you are levitating a few feet inches off the ground and and Nine is going to explain uh , that , uh , I do my best , meditating on the floor .

Speaker 2

Thank you Also , um , I believe there is an extra blanket in the closet . Thank you also , um , I believe there is an extra blanket in the closet . And uh , comfort means nothing to me because I'm you can see that I'm floating off of the floor , right ? I'm not , it's not hurting me . You get that right ? I'm sorry , counselor , are you a little slow maybe ?

Oh my god .

Speaker 5

You did tell her you would take care of anything that comes out of her vagina .

Speaker 4

That's true , that's true . So Thornwell responds by telling you that when you're done , she'll be in bed waiting for you To do what . Counselor ? Well , to handle anything that comes out of my vagina , you gotta put something into my vagina first .

Speaker 2

I start rifling through my bag . Oh my god , I have . I don't think that there's anything baby like enough .

Speaker 4

I was really hoping you were going to pull out your quarterstaff . That'd be weird , right ? That's the weird part of this situation it is , it is , yeah , yeah .

Speaker 2

Nines knows what vaginas are for . They're for babies and he has nothing baby-shaped and is quite apologetic .

Speaker 5

Does Nines understand how the baby got there in the first place ?

Speaker 2

He could meditate on it .

Speaker 4

Yeah , so Thornwell is just very direct with you and she says I want to have sex with you .

Speaker 2

I uh , yeah , um , master the Lion said that I couldn't have any pets , no matter who I shared them with , so I understand . I have always wanted a kitten as well , but I just don't think that this can happen between us .

Speaker 4

All right , yeah . So Thornball stands up and she puts her coat back on . She says if you ever find yourself back in town and change your mind , let me know . I guess .

Speaker 2

Yeah thank you for putting that back on . You looked really cold . I could see your nipples . They were like they were real hard . I'm so sorry .

Speaker 4

And uh yeah , she walks out of the room and shuts the door a little harder than she needed to it latches .

Speaker 2

Fine , I checked the hinges . Okay , she's gone . Anyway , back to meditation . All right , you all successfully get a long rest thank you for allowing me to play like the literal opposite of my own personality , like that's just not who I am . I'm just so suave and debonair , of course oh , that's the part that was different .

Speaker 4

Yes , I know this from falling to that suaveness myself . All right . So , glenn , you are the first person woken up . It is at the crack of dawn and a young boy is knocking at your door . As he's knocking , he's saying Master Glenn , breakfast is being prepared so first , glenn was not asleep , he was meditating .

Speaker 5

But or not meditating , what do you call it ? Reverie or whatever . But yeah , he will get up and go downstairs and start working on breakfast , perfect , alright . So any special you're making , go downstairs and start working on breakfast , perfect .

Speaker 4

Any special you're making .

Speaker 5

Well , did he ? Did the cook properly , marinate the crack and meat ?

Speaker 4

Yes , yeah , the crack and meat is properly prepared . He does say to you , when he hands you the bowl of marinated crack and meat , he says I've never seen this type of meat before . Sorry , that was Mr Thornwell . I've never seen this type of meat before . But I did exactly as you told me to .

Speaker 5

Okay , so what he'll do is he'll take the meat and he'll take some flour and some ground cornmeal and he'll mix in flour and some ground cornmeal and he'll mix in some ground pepper into the batter with some eggs and kind of put a very thin breading on it and basically fry it up in a pan with the oil that was marinating and basically make just little fillet

, fried fillets . That's it nothing major because . I didn't have a chance to think of what I was going to do with it .

Okay , and then he'll add in some eggs and some potatoes and some onions , and then , after the meat is completely cooked , he'll add the eggs and he'll cook the eggs , and , and , uh , he'll cook the eggs and the potatoes and the onions all together , and so basically you'll have uh , fillets with , uh , an egg and potato kind of casserole type thing , but not

really a casserole , just kind of eggs and potatoes and onions mixed together and cooked maybe uh more , more like uh A little quiche-y , maybe More like a fried potato egg thing , where it's scrambled eggs in the potatoes , not baked but fried .

Speaker 2

Yeah , that's the way that I do my breakfast burritos . I take all of it and I top it with cheese . Yeah , but I don't know that they have cheese and some tortillas . Anyway , I like the delicious and dungeon , the cooking interludes .

Speaker 5

And then he'll ask if the cook has . Did they make any bread yet , or is it still rising ?

Speaker 4

Yes , of course we always have bread prepared in the mornings .

Speaker 5

So he'll take some of the bread and then use the oil that's left over from frying the fillets , and he'll fry some bread up with it as well , and then basically he'll layer the piece of bread on the plate with a piece of fillet and then around the top part of it he'll put some of the potato egg combination stuff okay , that's it all right , are you , uh ,

sending the the boy up to wake everybody else up ? Sure yes then he'll . So I figure . I figure these fillets are pretty big , so that should be enough for everybody . Yes , yeah , they're pretty large , and they should leave some for the cook , so the cook can have some as well .

Speaker 6

Who's in the room ? With Monty , you are .

Speaker 4

Morse is still in the room . Oh yeah , oh , I see I get what you're saying all right so , yeah , you are all waking up by knocks on your doors . Um , you've all been long rested and they let you know that that breakfast is served we'll go downstairs in search of beets .

Speaker 3

Monty wakes up and , as he's looking , at Radishes no beets .

Speaker 2

Yes , I think . I think it was radishes . Was it radishes ?

Speaker 4

Yes .

Speaker 2

Whatever , same , thing , it doesn't matter .

Speaker 4

Same . Thing .

Speaker 3

As Monty collects all the stuff and is kind of walking with Mors out the room or walking out the room . I'm assuming Mors is following him . He's going to be rubbing his arm and looking at the Kraken mark on his arm .

Speaker 4

Monty , monty , give me a con save .

Speaker 3

I already told you I wasn't good at these saves Critical fail .

Speaker 4

Alright Monty , you feel your forearms have to burn a little bit more and you immediately have to rush down to the kitchen and stick your forearm under water , like so you find any kind of running water or a bucket of water and you have to stick your forearm directly into it and you have to stick your forearm directly into it .

Speaker 3

Uh yeah , he'll make it kind of a uh , a panicked sound as he runs out of the room and goes and does that perfect , puts his arm underwater , and he's probably intends to , next time he sees moore's , ask him if he knows anything about this . Well , since you were monty monty would have didn't like , would know .

It's the , the kraken symbol that we've been seeing , correct absolutely yeah and uh , monty .

Speaker 4

As you pull your arm out , you notice that the webbing between your fingers on both hands have started to elongate , so the webbingbing is going further up each of your fingers .

Speaker 3

Is Morse going downstairs ?

Speaker 6

Yeah , I was going to say we were like mid-conversation when that started to burn and you ran away .

Speaker 3

So Morse would probably follow you to make sure that you're okay . When Morse gets down there , amante is going to hold up his hand and say hey Morse , what do you make of all of this ?

Speaker 6

And he's like . The mark on my arm is burning . And now look at my hands . That is unusual . It wasn't like that before .

Speaker 3

Uh no , I've heard of cats with multiple fingers , but never with webbing in between them . Typically , cats do not like water . I happen to be one of those cats .

Speaker 6

Well , I'll cast Prestidigitation and dry his fur for him . Out of mercy for Monty .

Speaker 3

Monty goes up the dagger and cuts the webbing in between his nose . Just kidding . No .

Speaker 6

Well , I can try to detect magic on your arm and see what that symbol might mean . It looks just like the Kraken symbol .

Speaker 3

It is the symbol we have been seeing , but I guess it cannot hurt . Let's give it a try .

Speaker 6

Maybe after we grab a bite for breakfast . Okay , shouldn't take too long , let's do that when we go for breakfast .

Speaker 3

Okay , shouldn't take too long , let's do that . We go for breakfast , yeah .

Speaker 4

Okay , so you all sit down to eat Nines . There are no radishes or beets at the table .

Speaker 2

That doesn't matter to me , I don't care , I don't actually . You know , it's whatever Doesn , no matter how long I meditate , you know whatever amount of discipline .

Speaker 4

You sound like a disgruntled teenager . Doesn't even matter . It doesn't even matter . No , it's fine .

Speaker 2

Eggs is okay . You know what I mean . Like it's just , it's whatever organic matter that I can put into my body For the discipline that I have cultivated . You know what it's ? I don't radishes , don't even affect me .

Speaker 4

It's fine , it's fine , it's fine , it's fine , yeah , so you all sit down and as you're eating , the cook comes over and he says by the way , counselor Thornwell wanted me to let you know that there is a ship of the docks waiting for you . She left here last night . She seemed very upset . I'm not exactly sure why , but she wanted me to let you know .

Speaker 2

I don't know how you can't see that , but it's whatever she wanted me to .

Speaker 4

let you know that there is a ship of the docks waiting for you . You're looking for the Sea Captain Dadalorian .

Speaker 2

Sea Daddy , sea Dadalorian .

Speaker 4

The Sea Captain , dadalorian Captain .

Speaker 2

Dadalorian Lord Captain Seaord , lord Captain Sea Daddy , lord Captain Sea Daddy .

Speaker 5

So when Glenn hears that Thornwell was left upset , he looks over at he looks over at Nines and says did you not do the thing ? The meditation .

Speaker 2

What ? Every the breathing in , the breathing out .

Speaker 5

Well , I'm glad you've mastered the breathing in and breathing out . But did you do ? The other in and out .

Speaker 2

With the like when she came in and then left .

Speaker 5

Yes , no when she came in , then left yes , no when she came in .

Speaker 2

you were then supposed to go in no , I was meditating , I was already like . She said she was gonna be there at 11 and just she wasn't there .

Speaker 5

She didn't she walked up like a minute after you , well , but we wasn't there . She didn't .

Speaker 2

She walked up like a minute after you , well but we , she had asked me to meditate in her room , and then there I was , and then she didn't . And so what am I supposed to do ? Because , like , oh my , she doesn't even know the prayers . Did you know that ?

Speaker 3

Yeah , and Monty looks over and he says hard to get . That's my boy . You got to keep them wanting more . Good job . Good job , Nines , Don't bring me into this .

Speaker 5

What is Shakespeare's head ?

Speaker 2

I don't think you know what adventure is about , but okay , we'll move on yeah , so I I wanted to be adventurous , I tried to change up the words or whatever you were talking about , and she just wasn't into it . And that's okay , because we're not compatible .

Uh , because her vagina doesn't have anything coming out of it , and that's okay because we're not compatible . Because her vagina doesn't have anything coming out of it , and that's what I care about a blend is kind of done he looks over at Moore's , shakes his head , looks over at Monty kind of tilts , never mind , here's your breakfast .

Speaker 5

and he slides the plate over . Sorry , I got wrapped up in making this filet , I didn't have a chance to cook you your radishes , it's fine . And he slides the plate to Monty and Mors and sits down with a plate of his and waves the dwarf cook over and says hey , there's some for you too , so why don't you join us ? Take a few minutes to eat All right .

Speaker 4

So yeah , you all sit down and you eat your breakfast . It is delicious , some of the best foods you've eaten in a long time . At least a day . At least a day . What would you like , morris ?

Speaker 6

so , as our dwarf friend sits down to have breakfast with us , uh morse breaks into conversation . Says hi , I'm morse . What's your name ? What else ?

Speaker 4

dwarf . Oh , he's not sitting down . He's not sitting down to eat breakfast with you . Oh , he died so , glenn didn't .

Speaker 5

He didn't't accept Glenn's invitation to sit down and have a quick bite .

Speaker 4

No , he's got to cook for the other patrons . So he says I appreciate that , but I will have to eat mine later . I have to cook for the other patrons right now .

Speaker 5

So is the tavern or the inn owner there .

Speaker 4

The only people you see are the chef and the young boy . So who's he cooking for the other people ? The only workers are the chef and the young boy .

Speaker 6

I'm just teasing , we're all good .

Speaker 5

Glenn will stand up and say , hey , does anybody mind if our dwarven cook here sits down for a couple minutes to have a quick bite ?

Speaker 4

Several people say yes , I want my food .

Speaker 5

The food is cooking . It'll be ready in a few minutes . It's fine . I just came from the kitchen .

Speaker 4

Again . I appreciate it , master Elf , but I really must get back to the kitchen .

Speaker 2

Fine when the radishes are , or were there no ?

Speaker 4

We don't have radishes at this moment . That was decided . There's no radishes . Nobody likes radishes .

Speaker 2

Nobody I get it . That's okay , it's fine .

Speaker 4

Is there anything else you would all like to do here before you go to the docks ?

Speaker 5

um , I would like to ask a question okay did ? We get a level ? Not the end of the session yet , oh then no , glenn will eat his breakfast , muttering that ungrateful dwarves and elf monks , dwarves and elf monks Got a delicious crack and all you want is fucking radishes .

Speaker 4

Okay .

Speaker 2

I don't want radishes exclusively , I just want radishes inclusively . Is that weird or wrong , or like ? I'm a simple mountain man . I grew up in a temple , I'm only 75 , okay , I haven't seen the world , you know . And so maybe radishes aren't the end all be all , and I understand that , I get it . You know there are .

There are other people , there are other universes , apparently , and sometimes there are gooses and sometimes there are hydras , and sometimes there are fish ladies who sing at us and make me want to punch them in the face . It's weird and I don't understand it . But ultimately , the radishes , they're always there , right ?

You know that , we've seen it , we've all experienced it . I just want another one , you know , without having to die for it or whatever .

Speaker 5

So , uh , does Glenn have a radish in his bag ? I don't know if I would have one .

Speaker 4

I don't have it written down . Odds are even Odds . Yes , you have two radishes in your bag .

Speaker 5

Okay , so Glenn will reach into his bag and pull out a radish and set it in front of Nines .

Speaker 2

Nines will slap Glenn in the face and then kiss him . What the fuck .

Speaker 6

Does that apply to lightning damage ?

Speaker 4

No , it does not .

Speaker 2

Just in shock and exasperation .

Speaker 5

So glenn will be stunned .

Speaker 6

It just gotta sit there no , he didn't use any key points . You should be okay .

Speaker 2

Yeah , just a uh nine is gonna grab the rashes and like uh it's two right ?

Speaker 4

No , you just got the radishes .

Speaker 2

Yeah , I thought it was two . There's two in my bag .

Speaker 5

I gave you one I have to have one in reserve for the next time you cry about not having radishes .

Speaker 2

Oh yeah , so Nine's gonna like hold the radish to his forehead and like bow with it and then back away and then run . Where are you running to Eat the radish ?

Speaker 4

are you running outside of the building ? I'm running away okay , our next episode is gonna be finding nights no , it won't be all right well , that guy's gone On the ship boys .

Speaker 2

Anyway , he was excited . He's going to go eat it . He'll come back . Perfect , leave him alone . He'll be back before sundown All right , so Glenn will share .

Speaker 5

He will tell everybody that before he went to bed last night night he heard that we might have some lycanthropes to deal with when we get to Dead Pelt Shadows . So make sure you bring your silver .

Speaker 6

Werewolves . Are they running sales what ?

Speaker 5

Silver to damage the lycanthropes , mors , okay , and then Glenn will just shake his head and look down at his food and just finish , and then get up and not say anything and walk out of the bar and walk to the boat .

Speaker 4

What did ?

Speaker 5

you say the name of the boat was I have not .

Speaker 4

You say the name of the boat was .

Speaker 6

I have not said what the name of the boat was , yet the captain's name is Captain Dadalorian .

Speaker 5

Oh , I thought you said the name of the boat .

Speaker 4

Nope , the captain of the boat is Captain Dadalorian .

Speaker 6

Okay , as soon as Mors had finished his share of breakfast , he would have started casting Detect Magic on Monty's arm . Takes 10 minutes and 6 seconds , which I think the Radish thing probably took about that long .

Speaker 2

Yeah , it didn't last that long though .

Speaker 5

If Mors starts casting spells , Glenn wouldn't actually leave .

Speaker 4

Yeah , so , mors , you do register the Mark of the kraken uh on monty's arm and you identify it as a mix of conjuration , enchantment and necromancy magic conjuration , necromancy always , the was the middle one .

Enchantment , enchantment , and it also seems like there's a little bit of almost wiggle room , like , depending on what the user decides to do with the mark , it could go a few different directions . Do I know what those are ? You do not , because they're not actively on there yet . It almost seems like there's more power that's willing to be tapped from the mark .

Speaker 6

Okay , Well , monty , it's definitely magical . There's some conjuration magic , some enchant magic , some necromancy in there , and it looks like it's not quite done yet . I'm not sure what its final intent is , but it seemed to cause you some discomfort . Maybe we should try to get this removed somehow .

Speaker 3

I agree . I do not like it one bit , not in the least bit .

Speaker 5

So Glenn will not pull out his axe because he doesn't have it anymore , but he will pull out a dagger . Got this .

Speaker 3

I don't believe that removing my arm would be in the best nature of my archery talents .

Speaker 5

It'll grow back . You're a cat .

Speaker 3

That is not exactly how it works .

Speaker 2

Yeah , Nines is gonna take a breath to interrupt and then reconsider and think about what he knows about cats or limbs .

Speaker 5

Are you sure ?

Speaker 2

Nine limbs or something I hang on .

Speaker 5

I Okay . Well , how about if I just cut off the brand ?

Speaker 3

Perhaps there's a better way we could deal with this that might be a little less painful than removing my skin .

Speaker 5

I swear I will not feel any pain whatsoever .

Speaker 3

I doubt that one bit .

Speaker 6

I might be able to handle this . Actually I haven't . I might be able to handle this . Actually , I haven't cast this before . If you're okay with me trying it .

Speaker 3

I'm down to anything once and some things twice . What did you have in mind ?

Speaker 6

Well , I have to take a step back , and so Morz will like shimmy his way out of the booth and then he'll stand , he'll plant , plant his druid staff on the flower and then put his hand just over your forearm and I'm going to cast Lesser Restoration on Monty's arm . I'm going to touch him and I can end either one disease or one condition afflicting it .

It can be . Oh , those are not good conditions , never mind . The conditions can be blinded , deafened , paralyzed or poisoned . And I just read those as I was saying that and making a spectacle which is not real helpful .

Speaker 4

Samar shimmies back . You see him start to glow and then he's like oh , actually .

Speaker 6

Sorry , I just read the fine text . Never mind , you should find somebody more qualified .

Speaker 5

Glenn holds up the dagger . How about ?

Speaker 4

it To be fair , the party has only given Glenn one chance to do field surgery on a player before .

Speaker 5

It worked out , just fine .

Speaker 6

It didn't not he lives .

Speaker 5

He didn't die .

Speaker 6

Fair . Well yeah , from that .

Speaker 3

Speaker 5

I mean , you saw me cut up the Kraken and the Avalon .

Speaker 3

I was pretty good with the fillet knife that's a good point , yes , but currently this thing is not doing me a lot of harm . I believe that would be more More harm than necessary at this point . It just seems a bit extreme . We should continue , and maybe we can find something else that will help with this .

Speaker 6

Actually , maybe , captain Dattelor , you could do it . They can bless a marriage at sea . Maybe they can bless your arm .

Speaker 3

Okay , let's give that a shot .

Speaker 5

he spent all this time cooking this breakfast . Nobody complimented it , somebody complained that they didn't have radishes , somebody else wouldn't let him help with his brand it was fine it was fine .

Speaker 6

Mors would have thanked you for your breakfast . He's a better person than me . You would have really appreciated it . I would have really appreciated . I probably even said it , but I , it's the mind . I want tasting the kraken right now .

Speaker 5

You know , I just so what did the kraken taste like ?

Speaker 6

dragon . Is it a fishy fish or is it a like a fishy fish or is it a ? Is it like a red fish , white ?

So as you guys walk to the docks you see a few ships there , but one seems to catch your eye and you're drawn to it . It's a large galleon-style ship . It's got three masts and a large hull that's made of dark oak .

It looks very sturdy . It's got a classic look . You can definitely see some scars on the hull itself from weathering and just countless journeys . It looks like it's had some battles both with creatures and with other vessels and the deck is wide and spacious and it's got a , a large quarter deck towards the stern .

That the ship seems well cared for , it's well polished and oiled and it it's uh , and there are several uh cannons sticking out of the sides of the ship . At the figurehead you see a large . At the front of the ship , sorry .

At the bow you see a carved mermaid holding a goblet of some liquid , with an expression that seems to beckon sailors and adventurers to indulge while on the high seas .

And standing in front of the ship is a large , six and a half foot tall warforged creature and as you approach he says Welcome , I am the Dadalorian , welcome to my ship , the aquaholic and that's where we're going to end it for the night oh boy
