Episode description

For our First "Side Quest" Adventure of Season II, we're getting festive.

No Latency - Side Quest: Santa Sweep 

Pt1: Delayed Delivery 

Retro spends some time over the holiday season playing a game with his friends online, with all his procrastinating he's left some of his gift shopping to the last minute. This year it may not have been the best idea, with Arasaka Prime being a little shaky with deliveries this season, it may take more than a little online order for Retro to get all his shopping done this time.

Can anyone make a good working MMO?

Does Retro check who he's hanging out with before sending a friend request?

Can you turn a man into a clam?

Only the dice will tell. A Cyberpunk adventure continues...

Guest stars Bryce, Pablo playing Plumpton. The Netrunner, Jordan, Michael Whitby playing cave the fixer and Alex Stevens. Playing a do near the rocker boy. Although these characters have known retro for quite a while. This Christmas, they get to meet in person for the very first

time. What will retro get his friends? This Caesar in night City? Sometimes the greatest gift is a really good secret, but for retro this year, it's perhaps keeping those Secrets hidden, Shall We Begin? Hi guys, I'm gonna go ahead. I'm just gonna fucking, I'm gonna just fucking bash this thing until until I'm dead. And then, hopefully, once it all attacks me and I take all the points, you can just DPS it to death. All right. Just don't waste my buff this time. All right.

Well we don't heal her. I wish I could come but Rick didn't show up. So, no healer. We gotta, we gotta handle this. Anyways, yeah. Wasted bricks. Coming somewhere else, all of your adventures in the game Crest Over the Hill Park. From the rate of voice booms. Welcome to the darklands. The boss is before you, he's wearing a Santa hat. Oh shit. I don't have pain has like eight tentacles, but a Santa face. Creatures you guys gotta do it. It's one guy on his own. Who doesn't have a party?

Hi. Come on. We gotta we gotta get in there. Okay I'm coming. I'm coming put one hand over your eyes and thinking and shoot whatever spells you got. Okay. I run towards him and I shoot my biggest spell, which is a bunch of seawater. Everyone roll something bullshit

your way. I'm going to just rush in because, you know, it's just my character, a giant buff Barbarian only wearing a loincloth but has a square brick for a head helmet and charging in with double giant battle axes, right to the face of Santa. I'm going, I'm trying to catch the eyes out and I got an 82.

Oh shit and you were successful you managed to gouge out one of the tentacle I eyes on and on the screen it turns into a mosaic because it's so disgusting and and the blood falls to the ground and you get an XP bonus and the creature Wales backwards. Come on. Carlos Rivera. It's not a time to climb up at Donia. What character you're playing. I am just playing this little So in the back, just got a really

big head piece over her ears. And she just watching and just kind of like smirking and be like, everybody is a fucking idiot and just pulls out a gun and shoots the thing. See you pull out this this this musket in the game and it's loaded with a lightning bullet. This lightning bullet Cascades through and hits the water in front and electrifies the whole thing, but also electrifies retro because you didn't tell him about It has character, like, comically shakes and the

skeleton shakes. And if you look at the skeleton, you noticed the skeleton has a Santa hat. And you get a team hit bonus to your XP and you steal his XP bonus. Is it transfers over to your cave? What are you doing on the battlefield? I knew you were gonna do that and cave in caves rather small in stature, Druid nature, Caster

is running. And right, and left, and right dodging, all of these, all of these shots that are up there, flying over his head from, it happens every rate and he is just dodging back and forth, putting up like nature, and Arcane barriers, to try and keep retro for getting hit as much with the collateral damage. Yes, I'm not tired of it at all, every God. Goddamn time. Not a waste of my may not in the slightest. Maybe you could put it towards other things like sharing.

It's fun. One of the tentacles casts forward and one of your protection wall shoots up, cutting it in half, and you unlock an achievement in the game, which covers the whole screen and unfortunately, the you did roller crit fail in this. So one of the tentacles as you're being like I didn't know it could do that. It's Max. You across your character flies sideways and there's a big whammo. On the screen this and it makes

everyone chuckle. But you did do some damage it now has one less tentacle, however Clapton's been messing around and unfortunately his found a glitch in pressing a bunch of buttons. He's managed to unlock some kind of weird dormant code with a DLC that never got released and his whole body trembles in the in the dark space. That you're in, he turns into the same Beast as the boss and then it coughs on them covers them in a huge cloud of digital pix elated mush as the whole thing.

Melts into an egg and explodes into a Christmas present, opens up and out of this Christmas present in front of you, is a big sign that says, you did it Merry Christmas and then the screen goes, black will get returned to the tavern in the game, like a celebration music and some credits. I'm saying is once again, I personally one. And I'd like to thank you all for making that possible for me.

What can I say? I'm a master at my master at my job, but I am also a clam, a few months ago I was doing some thinking, we're a client and I was in an architecture and I saw this Damon and he was a clam and he came out of nowhere and he attacked me and I couldn't fight back and and now I I don't think I'm gonna turn into a clam but I'm pretty 100% sure that I'm gonna turn into a clam. It's pretty freaky gang. Every moment I look at the water and think, is that salt water?

I'm never sure. Anyways, that's what I do. You know I got super maybe you should come and hang out with my friends at my my favorite bar and you should come hit some kitten.

I don't look at anything very long. Yeah, I got that same one. Oh man this is it's being done made by ultimate packages and shipping. This is the worst. They're pretty sucky. I know I got some I got so mad

I did it a second time when I went over there. Yeah. Well I'm with boo-boo. Was it the same guy? I think. So, I'd like to believe. So for your sake, I hope it was Okay, got it. They might think, I think that more than one person deserves that working at that company.

I gotta think about one guy getting his own ship while him twice, not once and twice, it's a porta potty, so they just all his over. That's funny. All right. What time are y'all going to go? Pick up your shit? And we are not really doing anything. Now, probably just jumping, my dog. Just jump in my van and drive down there, and he all need a ride. Yes. With you all. Look, so you're just send you details to, obviously, I'll just call you on my tile. Then everybody.

So, no one else needs a ride, except for calcifer? I'm good. All right, because of her, I'll be there in like 10 minutes. Make it 15. I love it. This is gonna be so much fun. I'm bringing a flask that can bring to can do, thanks. Night City. You look at a map of North America somewhere on the western edge. You'd see an Inky black dot with fingers, pressing into the side of the continent. That's where you find night City and somewhere in the middle of that.

Inky black dot is a giant smoking hole, like the universe itself, Drew iron and shot straight through the city, radiation turn the sky red, but our story starts a little further, south In a dive bar, the shortstop Welcome to Night City and welcome to cyberpunk edge of Extinction. Infinite sided, dice presents, cyberpunk edge of Extinction, a cyberpunk, read actual play. Watch now at youtube.com slash at infinite, sided dice. Catch you later, Chairman's.

Prosper. How do you enjoy my 1976 VW van? It's so cool. I feel like I'm a bug makes me feel cool. Retro, I need you to row me two things. Don't you? Draw me a driving check and I need you to roll me. Something to make sure the music on the radio is not terrible. Okay so then hold on let me do driving check first yep that's fine. Okay at some traffic will move traffic was to gamble but fail I'm looking but it could be

worse. I mean, it helps remind me to wash my hands forget when I met running. So you know, transfer I kind of imagined you a little bit different and like like Tommy, tell me this look that you're not that you're showing me right now. Well, I mean, I thought it would be cool if I just wear some sweats and, you know, some sweats but on the top half and also a helmet. But my own it's starting to look strange. Every time I look at it, I think it's starting to look like a clam devouring.

The pearl of my head. Yeah, yeah. Um, you know it it would be it would probably not look like that so much if you didn't like keep filing blue ridge's into the brim of it, you turned to me. And you see that Ivan. Why are you saying this? I'm filing little Ridge. What do you mean?

What are you talking about? Well you're doing it right now like you and you get literally getting metal shavings in in Vanna White and now I got a vacuum that off because now Jeff's gonna make a big deal about it. I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to Oh yes. You don't want to get that in your food if you eat it. Wash my soul God. They play this all the time. I can't, doesn't it? Make you feel like you wanna

wash your hands? It does, what you want to wash my hands a lot, which is like some freaky. Like, they got some something in there that like, gets a worm in your brain to make you do it. It's definitely some like underground science shit. You're right, there's something kind of weird about this song. Every time I hear that I feel compelled to wash my hands. Yeah, it reminds me of this like one song that my great grandpa told me about about.

They used to do this song about kids in cars that like everybody hate it. What was it? It was something called kids and cars, I don't know. Both of you while personal grooming. Howard, you're out of your jacket. You pull a one-person sanitizer packet and wash your hands Kalani. Instructions of the song Because currently playing fears, the rest of for the rest of this episode, you get plus one to your reputation. What can I say like to follow instructions?

You managed to pull a metal shaving out your to hand. And it works better on a major bonus but it feels nice. And you arrived as the hand-washing song. Finally finishes at warehouse, 25ml big, where small Warehouse I've seen bear blown up bigger and you guys get out of the vehicle. Anhedonia is standing outside, just writing some shit down and a journal that I carry just like about the description. One of the house, I'm trying to come up with another sound. Wait a second.

You have a TV for a head which of you is? Which what, who are you, you know that was that attitude? You're literally a TV. Yeah, yeah. I literally have a TV forehead surprised and you'll see a exclamation mark and fireworks. Go off on my screen. Whoa, that's sick. It's actually pretty cool. All you have to do is lose your scone, almost have your brain. Get destroyed to have something like this. I just prefer to not but I'll keep that in mind.

If the Take care of her sides but you know, wait up, we're to rock it, I guess. Yeah. Version to version 2. Yeah, what-what else version 1 was an older TV set that I had, but that one got shot. Did have S-Video, though. Jane, I think you look really cool upgrades, calcifer. Do you actually look like a clam? I have this helmet. That looks kind of like a clam. But also everyone, although he's saying it looks like a clam, it's a cycling helmet that he's

turned into his running loose. Please don't talk about clams around me. I just feel it coming, like I filled the shell wrapping around me, it's no lie, ever present, you know, always watching Remy's gonna go ahead and just lie to join and then like try to get calcifer to take a hit. However, Isn't I just write down the she'll ever present? I'm sure that's got to be a leak somewhere. Okay, that means that the only person that were waiting for is

dino names, cave, cave. How do you arrive walking up taking a giant Swig out of one of the two flasks? Calcifer. Hit this shit. Okay. Yeah, I'm in roll. This torture drugs. Yeah. Also, retro roll. Resist torture drugs. We're still God. What are all these messages, 10? Yeah, you're fine. Oh, this way, it's not restaurant. But you'll find the TV was six. You feel a little euphoric and for the rest of the episode, you have a plus-one to something fun. Mmm, to chill. I want it.

I want it to be something Roots. You get plus 1. To dance, is it specifically to The Safety Dance, whatever, whatever you want. If you want to if you get a plus one to dance, you can use dance. Now I guess for the rest of this episode and you're all outside the web so Adonia, you actually look like you that makes sense and you too. Well I don't know what I was expecting but this is not it. You know who I am. Say my name. I'm really learning that you're very rude and demanding of

people so much. That was just a character for the game. I'm really pleased again do, but I'm turning into a clam. You know, I really thought that you were turning more into an oyster but I suppose. I do see the clam esque resemblance here, please, excuse my behavior. It's all the clams stuff. Usually, I'm pretty chill, pretty kitchen and straight. Vibe and baby I just kind of like rage over just like a flask. Yep, just it's whiskey very well. Let's let's let's not get salty

about this is it's the holidays. Come on, we're in Sugar. Would you say if I said, let's not get salty about this. What's all go get our stuff, come on. And then afterwards you can you can come with me them to to my Kick-Ass Friends Bar. A lot of that for all of us there is that just for Galesburg that's well. As for everybody I mean wait like this if you want to hit this joint you can but it's almost a roach now I'm good. Don't want to damage the vocal cords.

If Ya Wanna Do resist torture drugs, If you want more, I got like 12 more. I look at this. You get plus one to dance for the rest of it. Then I've got one to Dance. I mean that's that's what happens. Yep, so you guys are all standing around the door of this Warehouse. Can we all like kind of walk up Reservoir, Dog? Ask sure. Yes.

Is that I guess? I mean, there's no one here to see it but actually, you know what, if you three walk up, I can record it. I don't think you want that to be part of my reputation that I'm trying to just be for, just be for us. Please, for the group chat, ya gotta love the GC, I just will request that. If we do this, we intentionally walk in slow motion. Oh yes, do you want to give a speech? Are you have to hum the pan washing-stand?

That's obviously humming the hand-washing song because I can't. Yes. Sounds good. I'm going going a damn it. That is going to be stuck in my head. Now though, the DVD was 10, huh? Is this not very difficult to walk in until I'm at? Now, actually know, the TV was like six, right? It's not hard to walk in. It's not hard to walk in Slammer. It was walking in slow motion. You look absolutely fantastic

and calcifer. Who rolled unfortunately a crit fail on this slow motion falls to the ground. In the video which is being filmed in slow motion even though you're walking in slow motion and a donee. You lean on the door is you laughs? Yeah and door swings open Brosius up to open or me the idea that are you okay, I'm not the one that fell on my ass Masters hurt and your Armor gets a bladed by one. Only your head on me though because you don't you head on the ground? My poor head.

I think that that hit made it look a little bit more. And I just walked into the warehouse. When you walk in it's a one-room Warehouse, you can see like an observation walkway, Stacks and stacks of crates underneath it more crates underneath, what looks like to be an office. It's labeled with a faded label that says office on the wall. There's a stairway up to the observation deck so you could

get in there. And you can't really see into the room because there are a bunch of boxes in here. Question. Yes. Does it look like nobody's been here in a very long time? It looks like people aren't here today because it's a holiday or it's near a holiday cash. I don't understand why did we receive a message? If there's no one here because our boxes could still be here. I'm getting the Jimmy's not, Jimmy fear, you know, they're Jimi, Hendrix.

Yeah, the Jimi Hendrix of fear. We're really no one around here. Hello roll, perception. Cuckoo everybody. Everybody retro. You said hello into this room and it echoes through the room. I'm waiting for a perception check from everyone calcified. You're too concerned about their slight deformation of your hat to really look around. So you're not paying attention retro. You notice that. There are footsteps echoing from

the room. And like a whirring noise Adonia, you hear the footsteps, but not the wearing noise and cave. You recognize the wearing noise. Okay, that's great thing to hear. It's fine. Everything's fine, what's fine? Hey, I'm here to pick up my shit. You need to shut the fuck up. That guy can hear shut up their drones, the fucking drones, shut the fuck up, okay? And out from one of the crates appears atoll man, wearing a lot of armor and carrying a big gun and he looks at you all and says

he smiles at you creepily. He's wearing a Santa hat. Yes, we got a letter. Yes. Yeah I got my tracking number on my tile. Good. Can I just get my stuff please? Oh I'm sorry. There's been a mix-up. There's no delivery but it's the end of your line for you. I don't have a waiting line, we're just gonna kill you, I had a pistol. I just showed up roll for initiative, muhahaha We have rolled initiative and unfortunately the man who just threatened, you rolled highest the 15. That's bad.

So this big dude. Cocks shotgun poinsettia cave and holds the trigger. Rolling a 10, the bullets fly past you whipping, past your hair, causing it to like flourish and it pings against the metal wall, that is a, that is a weapon with a rate of fire of one sucks. Move away Along this bitch and he, and he ruts to get away from your site. Right. Hiding behind some crates. And you lose your ability to see. He is so the crates, they're all stacked up pretty high, right? Yep.

You can't see past them. I would like to use my movement running wise to charge into these crates here and hopefully top of them over. Nice. Okay. Sounds good Ralston bullshit for me, I think. I'm going to take an educated guess 20. Yes you can see that. One of the boxes is in the middle. Is already kind of off its mounting and it would be pretty

easy to push over doing this. Little bit of moment is your bonus action for this turn and gives you a bonus to something that would actually push a crate, which is not education. Booze, is giving you an advantage. I'll give you, I'll give you plus one to your roll. They are Education is nothing like I thought. Well, you know geometry? Yeah, it's going to give you a plus one advantage. I'm just gambling on all this. Okay. All right.

Well, you lose that plus 1 because you've taken too long because you just write a crit - one, that's not enough, neither of those are a physical thing or related to a physical thing. Do something physical. Okay. 21. Very good. Yes, you managed to knock over the middle crate, and it Cascades out into the little Corridor that it had created with the other boxes and falls upon this soldier. In the warehouse, it crushes him to the ground and causes more D6.

The Box. Crushing him causes a critical injury crushing, half of his chest and you hear his lung pop. Part of his side opens up and blood spurts across the ground towards you. And that guy is very incapacitated. You do not have to worry about said human, I'm Klaus, true phobic. Try to see if I could take a shot around the corner at the Drone. You prep your shot but have run out of actions. My guy damn. But yeah, you've prepped a very good shot.

Well done. There is now a one of these guys is completely incapacitated and now on the ground, the collapsed lung. All right, I'm gonna run by in this box, we run behind a box. X. I'm going to take out my heavy pistol. I'm gonna try and shoot that drawn right there, that do it. You'll collect mrs. Entirely, and like ends up. Ricocheting into some boxes, you do not score enough. You rotten 11 the DV for this was 15 so sorry. Okay, it's okay. Is that a heavy pistol?

What's the rate of fire? Was the rof to. I believe you can roll it twice, no words and the other bullet misses entirely you. Look at your gun in disbelief. That it is, that shit, you are now down to Mo the Drone. You were shooting at it is, it's turn after being shot at twice, it decides to attack you plankton Out of the front of it, a little door opens, and it fires out a ripper towards you after moving a little closer role evasion and being 11, all

right, 13 the Ripper blade. Casts aside, you hid the boxes, you dodge and then whips back into the Drone itself. Oh, geez, as the breadth of Blade brachle chain, comes wailing back to this. Drone here in the warehouse, it's heavy SMG, its carrying underneath itself. Fires at you missing entirely as a blitz, rip against the metal wall, causing you to duck slightly. It only rolled in eight, so you're okay. I'm so scared from out of one of the corridors appears another

bodyguard. He steps forward using all of his movement standing behind the Drone and aims at retro only having enough time to really use his heavy pistol. And he shoots at you rolling, just under the DV with 14, the bullet hits, one of the cases He's behind you. He pulls the trigger again and it hits you for an 18. And you take five damage which honestly just kind of a Blazer armor. I think you chipped my button cave cave, just takes a take a step just away from all of all

of this clam nonsense. That's happening beside him. Just as cool as a cucumber. Just takes one big step away from from calcifer because that is too much to Deal with pulls out his his pistol bass and treble. And we'll fire shot out of each of them at the at the Goon just as slow and methodical as possible. Firing an 18 with base and 15 with treble.

Both bullets, hit basis, bullet Clips, one of the wings of the Drone and it spins amusingly, taking one damage to its armor and you cause nine and eleven damage respectively, taking out a decent amount of this guy's arm as it flies off behind them and falls to the ground. Now, you still want to do this fight or do you want to leave alive? Rob persuasion. Oh yeah, you think you've got me? No, you do not motherfucker. You will need roll. You roll a crit, fail.

Yep. The one thing that I'm supposed to be resting as he's like very fucking Christmas Antonio walks up and she's like like swinging around this giant. What kind of looks like a metal stick but it's actually three mic stands that she's like wrapped together to form this giant fucking pole ends, like sick and a happy fucking New Year and like baseball swings the drill. Into the guy's head. Oh, sing! All right, bullshit me a move. Okay, I think is awesome.

You just got to wait for this thing to load again. So when you're saying bullshit move, can I still dislike news? My melee weapon thingy, I'm setting up for you. That's not right. That yeah, it will be a melee weapon skill and it's three. Mic stands wrapped together so it does 3D six. Yeah. Which says that was a really fun thing to do.

Yeah. I'm I'm does like a tripod in your bag to take the base of its really heavy so you don't drop the mic and you're able to like swing it like a like a hammer. Yeah. So I just have a GM. I can help and I just because I think I get two Swings with the melee weapon to the first one is trying to hit the Drone into dude McGee. All right, so I'm going to say the whole wow yeah. Alright. Okay, this isn't gonna go well. Huh. So the Drone rolls. 10 on Invasion.

Crack it in the middle and it flies backwards, almost perfectly straight. And B are towards this guy role that again. Because I have a thought it was the to, but I think would be really funny if it works it. Unfortunately, mrs. Him as he Ducks because you rolled a crit fail. However, the Drone does take a decent amount of damage. It hits the stairway and the banister. One of the blades of the Drone itself, flies, off and sticks into the ceiling, and it falls

into seven pieces and dice. They don't have a lot of Health. They really are quite fragile, they can really hurt. You but they are very easy to kill since I have to swing Swift this. Yeah, I like so know you. Your second swing was in hitting and I just I cackling the whole time. This is. So this is the best package delivery ever. Gotten. The guy on the balcony, looks down at the Drone as it's smashed to pieces. During my brother limited doctor.

Hey, thanks quack, quack, right? Yeah, it's so funny when you shoot those guys. Oh, yeah. No, totally quack, quack. This guy shoots, his shotgun over the top of this balcony. That's far, he misses he misses entirely the shrapnel of the shotguns, blast hitting boxes, and various pieces around. You, some of you feel like a piece graze you, but it causes no damage. Because here are the 15, and it was, at least a 20 to hit. You Cox's gun one more time and he's choosing not to move.

So, he pulls out his heavy pistol and points it at Cave. Hitting you in the chest for 13 damage, it rips through your jacket and you see the Kevlar piece underneath Frey off and hit the ground, your armor losses. One damage and you take for damage because your honor takes the rest. Yeah yeah but it was a first Miss bitch, the Drone flies over the top of the balcony comes down towards you and tries to shoot at retro because it's the

first plastic rolling. A 12 Point, Blank Range, missing that An SMG as the bullets, Cascade around it. Like the SMGs are not good for these. Drones was a bad design choice, and they just like all over the place as the bullets Cascade around. You, you look really cool. You turn your head to one of the other people that you're who do you turn your head to looking at you and you turn your head is these bullets continue to pass by you as the Drone. Misses the tragic love story.

Okay. If you think that's really cool, yes, it's a really cool winky emoji. I'm into it. The crush got a got body. Got doesn't get a 10 because there's a box on top of him. Well, looks like I'm up to Snow. Good, pull out my shotgun. Stupid. I love it and I'm going to take my first shot at the at The Bodyguard 18. Yeah you hit him Square in the chest for 14 damage. He falls backwards onto his bum. He goes under half Health. Oh shit. Oh well that's the end of that.

Hey I just rolled double sixes so you blew his leg off. Oh oh oh you. You you go to make a cool move and you aim a little low and it hits him right in the hip you blow. His fucking leg off backwards. Blood goes everywhere and the guy paints and is bleeding out. I'll just take my second shot at the drowned man, 21. You hit the Drone Square. It peels like a banana mid air and drops to the ground. Little bits of it electronically sizzling, as it as it finishes and you rolled 21.

So out of a compartment of it rolls down onto the ground and to your feet a smoke grenade. You got loot. Now I'm just really interested in the smoke grenade. Okay, there's one person left, there's A person left okay, you got this, I'm going to go right here. I'm going to say Hey you last person if you if you stop this senseless violence. I'm going to tell you a big secret you know that version over there. That's the Adonia the music player.

He told the smile. Well actually there's new band. This is your real secret stuff here. Can I get to where the body is basically up on the stairs? Everybody that that Rose going to shoot again? We love you so much, Plankton 13, if you see you got as close as you could. That's enough bullet Cascades for drips off. A huge piece of his armor. The bullet goes straight through. His eye comes out the other side and the guy drops to the ground

like a sack of shit combat. I start looking for my package, I'm just gonna go over to calcifer, Pat him on the back and just say, hey, looks like you got final sled.
