Snyders Return:Super Saiyan
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:this isn't even my final form. As I say jumping up into the air.
Snyders Return:Cape billowing behind you you are above ground. Are you doing anything else having.
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:So I've used my action to activate the cape and my bonus action to go into the rage and a movement. So I'm good. Thank you.
Snyders Return:All right, tiny. Your companion has seemingly slipped into a shadow nearby. And a Goliath seems to be levitating across the bridge from you.
Josh-DiceandaSlice:Scott Scott. Oh, okay.

Josh-DiceandaSlice:okay. That's fine. My friend Scott.

Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:What's the range of that?
Josh-DiceandaSlice:It is. Now How high are you is the question I should have asked first.
Snyders Return:How far up did you go? Well,
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:so it's kind of I feel as though the wings don't necessarily get me up to 60 feet in the air. That's that sort of using my movement. I've already used my moments. I'm not that high up I just wandering across the river. What it is, it's only I think I'm only like five feet up yet
Josh-DiceandaSlice:if I'm honest. Okay, I would like to I'd like to retract that previous

Snyders Return:Yet close?
Josh-DiceandaSlice:close, but not cigar. Okay, that's fine. Listen, let your next important thing cool. Okay, in which case, tiny will say now I've spent my fair amount of time in a brothel. I gotta tell you I don't know how to dominate people. And please, God
Unknown:straight out the bat Just
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:give me a second. This sheet does not look dated one second.
Josh-DiceandaSlice:Assuming we can be charmed. That is

Naomi-PowerWordRoll:I couldn't even use it for mine. It was like No, give me more money. And I was like, You know what? No,

Josh-DiceandaSlice:I said playing Academy so you can add 1d 10 to any ability check attack roll saving throw as well as damage.
Skylar-DicenaSlice:The toe is damaged as well. Oh boy. Oh boy. Okay, cool. So that's one
Snyders Return:piece to one
Unknown:that'll be my turn I
Snyders Return:guess. All right, jumping onto the bridge and trying to face down this floating did not really flying by the descriptions given floating Goliath. an exchange of words takes place. Both standing your ground flak from way back where it is used to step up to the plate. Everybody seems to be congregating.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:Sweet, so ah. flack. It's like I love you. I do. And I'm gonna take care of you. And thanks. Desert like a copse of trees. swags gonna like slide into the cops of trees. Is that the correct side for us?
Snyders Return:backwards or towards the bridge?
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:Towards the bridge. Please. bridge for me. I want to be about 30 fit to my girl. My girl lot. For whack. whack.
Snyders Return:Yeah, you can kind of just about just about getting in between the trees and and
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:that's all good. And I look at whack and I say you're my bitch you are. And I cast my cast emboldening bond. Because we are like blood Bros. You feel me?
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:I like to think that we're doing like an action. Like, you know, like bros for life. If we were close, we would fist bump
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:but we can't. It's like It's like a spectral fist bump. It's a fist bump of the heart is what I'm saying. We fist bump up the heart. I cast emboldening bond. And then I'm like, but you lads. I can't believe you stood my dad up last week. And I throw up spiritual weapon and I go for a bonk on me lad on the bridge. For
Snyders Return:two quick questions. What does embodying and bond do and what is your spiritual weapon look like?
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:Yeah, you wanna describe what Okay, cool, cool.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:So, hold on, I have to say this a lot of it. Fold and then bond. As an action, you chose number of willing creatures within 30 feet of you. This can include yourself. So obviously, I'm including myself, equal to proficiency bonus duration, 10 minutes, while any bonded creature within 30 feet of each other at default when attack roll ability check or saving throw no more than once per turn. Because it's emboldened because no real like fancy but just now, when a creature is about to take damage, we can teleport within five feet of each other. Wow.
Snyders Return:This public service now was brought to you by flack. Your spiritual weapon.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:Spiritual weapon. It's just it's just like a cricket bat with some blood on the end. Yeah.
Unknown:Yeah.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:I would. I would like to just go bonking on the nearest individual that isn't my brother. If that's cool.
Snyders Return:Absolutely. It is. So you're sick. Which in because minis looks like a geezer materialises next to tiny Hi there sorry for the interruption. It's Adam here.

Naomi-PowerWordRoll:That's cool. That's cool. It goes down and makes like a splotch noise
Snyders Return:um, that's right trick is to watch splotches
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:for its splotches and Onomatopoeia my dude splotches exactly what it sounds like.
Skylar-DicenaSlice:It's a very evocative word.
Josh-DiceandaSlice:It's also the newest drink available by Mountain Dew.
Snyders Return:other beverages are available at all. Yes. So right top of the round, the bridges become a focal point with a levitating Goliath, a Minotaur, a cricket bat, and a strange voice that appears to sort of whistle and appear on the wind is sourced unknown. Moving into the next round. Scotland, you seem to be getting a good lay of the land and act.
Skylar-DicenaSlice:So I'm gonna take out my long bow bow. I'm gonna aim my long bow at not, I don't remember which one of y'all is called which, but the one that's making a big old staying calm the bridge, I'm going to avoid that. Because I think that's too hot for me to handle. I'm gonna shoot the one over by the trees the little guy.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:I mean, you can cry.
Skylar-DicenaSlice:Ah, certainly. Well. So, I would like to roll to hit with my long bow.
Snyders Return:Please do now.
Josh-DiceandaSlice:Garlic was hidden.
Skylar-DicenaSlice:Yes, Scala is
Snyders Return:so unseen with the Vantage.
Skylar-DicenaSlice:Okay. Okay, so that's a 25

Snyders Return:23 D six.
Skylar-DicenaSlice:It's still rolling. Hang on, I think one's rolled off
Unknown:the screen
Skylar-DicenaSlice:is now just rattling. That's 25. So overall, a
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:34. I've decided that we're going to take off and I'm going to go and activate my emboldening bond and draw my brother to me and be like,
Unknown:I'd be like, Oh,
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:I don't wanna I'll pass banks
Snyders Return:often the option.
Skylar-DicenaSlice:So what's happened with that?
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:So the emboldening bond ability is that I can like zip them towards me. So teleport them within five feet and then they take my damage. Oh, wow. Yeah. So before
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:Oh, so that's hard as well. Some raging Yeah.
Unknown:Great.
Snyders Return:Seven, team. Yep.
Unknown:Oh, oh, My arm hurts.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:I say hey,
Skylar-DicenaSlice:I just kind of go drag
Unknown:and
Skylar-DicenaSlice:With my bonus action I would like to do a coming action and I would like to hide
Snyders Return:please please roll still
Unknown:28
Snyders Return:are you dipping back into the same approximate location Are you moving?
Skylar-DicenaSlice:Yeah I'm gonna dick kind of near to my my buddy my pal
Snyders Return:all right so Skyler you emerge loose arrow watch a Goliath zip from the end of the bridge over the pair of them now for Winston some form of pain the Goliath of less so due to the rage and the dramatic keep flowing. And you like that it's
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:more of like a bodyguard moment.
Unknown:I got you Mr. President.
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:Okay. For a student. This is all because it's because we've got a lovely map. So that's why I'm gonna be using it to my biggest advantage. How from for me to our lovely chef friend on the bridge. How many feet is it? Would you say? Like if I was going into sort of diagonal 35
Snyders Return:Oh, what you could probably stand in the same space as a spiritual weapon. I'm not totally sure how that works. Yeah, no. 35
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:do I get damaged if I go near and near me or is it not my
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:gifts? It's Hong Kong command.
Snyders Return:Unless she wants to bonk you on command. No, no, I
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:well. Hey, that's that's it for a different one. All right. I see. I was like, I'm a bit of a rage. I'm really annoyed because I was like, really, you know, bear present frightening presence on the bridge. So I'm gonna take it up a notch. I'm going to rush in towards tiny. And I would like to grapple. And with the rest of my movement, shoot straight across the sky.
Snyders Return:All right. I'm just gonna ask, Are you still levitating? But that answers that question. Yeah, yeah, it's always sort of levitating. Yeah, grapples. So that's your strength against strength or dexterity. athletics, athletics or acrobatics? Yeah.
Unknown:Yeah, yeah, we'll go with that. That sounds good. That is a 27
Snyders Return:so swag. What did you get to initiate the grapple?
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:I got a 26
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:plus Oh yes.
Unknown:We had hope.
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:So that's 35 feet to get the rest of my movement it is 60 feet with my cape. There'll be 25 feet up in the air from that point on it's like snicker This is great.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:We're seeing on the screen is minis being placed on platforms and then higher platforms
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:gonna fall at any point?
Snyders Return:The case
Unknown:Yep, yep.
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:I think that's all I can do because I have not technically attacked I've just sort of
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:rattled it in action
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:yes as an action so I can't do anything else so that's fine.
Snyders Return:So with rage Do you need to make sure you took damage last time
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:I took damage Yeah.
Snyders Return:rules work
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:No, it's good. It's good.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:You asked for min max my dude.
Snyders Return:I did. I did so tiny you very nearly maintain footing on the ground, but are almost caught off guard by the power and resolved within Swank's physical form as you are lifted vertically and rather unsteadily, I would assume but it is your go You are grappled by a Goliath who is raging. Cool.
Josh-DiceandaSlice:I would like to draw my my chef's cleaver aka long sword and I would like to hit the person who has just lifted me into the air.
Unknown:Nice. Don't look out
Josh-DiceandaSlice:so that is a 21 to hit. Okay. Cool. So that is that is nine slashing damage.
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:Alright, reduced to half.
Snyders Return:So for
Josh-DiceandaSlice:it's nice, it's like it's like dance. That's wonderful. Okay, I would now like to try and show off the target with my horns using my bonus action hammering homes and the sharp action in five e and e to remind myself against in the graph production
Snyders Return:your speed is zero. So how are you one How are you achieving movement in midair and two with the speed zero How far are you attempting to shove said per So
Josh-DiceandaSlice:I don't don't use hammering horns because I've got here immediately after you hit a creature with a melee attack melee attack as part of the attack action on your turn. You can use a bonus action to attempt to shove that target with your horns.
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:Does it say anything about sizing at all because I do count as a size larger than medium?
Josh-DiceandaSlice:Is that just for carrying purposes or is that fair thing?
Unknown:I will look it up for you. As we're all learning
Josh-DiceandaSlice:we are using the mythic obviously of therapists monitor Yeah, no
Snyders Return:spawn just shove I suppose it'd be like an aggressive headbutt sorry
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:yeah, you're right Josh is I only count as a size larger wintergreen carrying capacity. Wait, I can push drag or lift it doesn't matter for you.
Snyders Return:So well hench however, you're not gonna potentially you just hit button them where they are. We'll see. We'll see how it plays out. Go for a code
Josh-DiceandaSlice:so it's a special melee attack to shove the creature so that will be caught there's so many words around sharp I hate it Why did I choose that one media I make an athletics check against the athletics or acrobatics check.
Unknown:I will do that idea.
Snyders Return:It's really good or odd. It really isn't.
Unknown:25 Yeah. 15
Josh-DiceandaSlice:waste of a bonus action. However, with my action action, I'm going to hit you with my sold. Let me know if you've heard that one before.
Unknown:What
Josh-DiceandaSlice:I know Oh, bloody brilliant. That's an that's a 10 It's a 10 to hit
Unknown:does not hit? No, I'm
Josh-DiceandaSlice:not surprised.
Snyders Return:all wrapped up nowhere to go and unable to shift the target literally in your face. Tiny are struggling to say the least. Can you or are you doing anything else? I will recall limply regardless,
Josh-DiceandaSlice:like you picked up a spaghetti noodle?
Unknown:Ah,
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:what's wrong with you?
Snyders Return:I don't know. FLAC you see these two brawny individuals in the sky in close embrace one of them appears to be wriggling against your companion. It's possibly unsettling.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:I trust you because we have a bond
Unknown:saying that
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:and I would like to move forward to try and maintain roughly about that 30 feet all up so probably to the water I guess. Yeah, great. And I would like to bonk so I'm going to hit the the individual in my dear brother arms. And I'm gonna say have a bit of that mate can't refer shit that's a that's a 16 but with advantage because they are grappled
Josh-DiceandaSlice:correct no grapple only stops movement. I think
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:that's cool. Then 16 so I don't think that hits doesn't cause a lot of conditions everyone
Snyders Return:doesn't mention a vantage washer.
Josh-DiceandaSlice:Tiny that does not hit my on my clothes is
Unknown:not here.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:That's cool. No doubt. And now I'm gonna do what I'm made for which is I'm gonna cast guardian of faith. So I'm gonna be like, Alright, Kevin. Saw it out. And then my mate Kevin is gonna like smashed through the the the bridge, spiritually speaking. And it's just like a guy in a wife beater and some short shorts. And then creature that is within 10 feet. For the first time on their turn, they must make a deck saving for it. Well, they take 20 radiant damage.
Snyders Return:You're gonna have a normal in a chain shirt. Just close enough.
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:That's what that's how I imagined
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:it. That's what Kevin looks like. I don't know. We talked about
Snyders Return:Go Go Kevin. So it comes up through the bridge and to work as they are elevated in in the air.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:Because Oh, no, this is this is for the road because I can't see them. Okay. It's just to stop them from getting in my way to be honest.
Snyders Return:Nice. Nice. Are you doing anything else?
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:That's my whole action. So um, yeah, no, that's it. I'm good.
Snyders Return:So that would be no. All right. To brawny individuals. I'm gonna keep coming up with new words to describe how hench you are. There's another one
Fiona-WAIR/DMsBookClub:with three C's.
Naomi-PowerWordRoll:That's a new team name fit with three C's. Nice.
Josh-DiceandaSlice:Cool. You said something that sounded similar.
