Hi i'm Olma, Flynn, March, Ceallach, Shraya and i'm your DM Ethan welcome to Venture Forth
uh hi i'm olma and i'm your dm ethan welcome to venture
0:07
forth [Music]
0:38
previously you all had begun the prison break uh with the assistance
0:44
of faraday who knew her way around the prison and knew sort of some of the systems that were in place you guys
0:50
entered the prison of oak inspire looking to free xavier
0:55
zeta and timmy you guys were successful once taking your silver tongue potions
1:02
in getting into the prison and navigating your way you found the records room which contained the list of
1:08
all the prisoners currently in the prison and you guys discovered where your targets were
1:14
you guys went over to sub-block a and as you guys descended deep into the earth with this this
1:20
massive prison complex around you you guys were able to find timmy and after a little bit of um
1:28
some acting on timmy's part uh you guys were all able to convince the guards that he in fact had dream rot and that
1:34
zeta was necessary to cure this disease um so with zeta having convinced the
1:42
rest of the guards as well that you guys need to take uh timmy out of the prison and and take him to a temple to be
1:48
healed you guys made your way up again towards the surface though stopping at
1:54
level 49 as shraya had discovered another aracochra here in the prison
2:00
you guys had convinced the guards that this era coker also had dream rot and were able to free him from his cell as
2:05
he is now alongside the rest of you guys you guys made your way up the elevator
2:11
and getting to the final sub block you guys were greeted by warren warden barrett hastel and a couple of armed
2:18
guards so as you guys step off of the elevator the warden says
2:23
i don't remember ordering an inspection team but of course not sir that's not how inspections work
2:30
if we were to inspect your facility with you no that's how my inspections work oh i see so you don't report to thorgan
2:37
nightcrest you just run everything as well as you want by yourself exactly guards please place these people in
2:42
handcuffs don't be absurd i've seen the way you run this place your records and shambles you've let
2:49
a disastrous case a viral case of dream rot go rampant under your watch this is
2:54
how you demonstrate your new leadership by subverting the orders of your superiors
3:01
no young man trust me when i say that i am getting this prison
3:08
into a shape that it has not been in years how am i supposed to trust that looking at the disaster in front of me
3:14
i'm gonna i'm gonna jump in you're risking the life of every
3:20
single person in here if you let this case of dream rod that's already jumped from one person to another spread even
3:27
further and we're all we all have our faces covered as we come up here and yeah where our
3:32
faces and ears are still covered like everything make a uh deception check for me
3:38
just a straight rule real high
3:44
12 12. hey guards as the guards take out mannequins do
3:49
they appear do the guards appear nervous at all i mean what about the guards that we are with the guards that you guys are
3:54
with are still very nervous and at this point they have stepped back um and sort of stepped over towards uh guard post a
4:02
um and are sort of like taking themselves away from the situation the guards that were standing there with the
4:08
warden that greeted you as you guys rose up seemed steadfast in what they're doing
4:14
so it seems like they're going to put chains on us yes they're currently stepping forward with manacles in hand um can i can i
4:20
look at um warden and see if uh and then and do an insight check to see if he is
4:26
um more nervous about what would happen if this came to light than he is about
4:33
us than he is about us being here make an inside check
4:40
25 25. very clearly he does not seem nervous about anything
4:46
you get just in his posture in the way that he's looking at you guys he feels that he has
4:52
complete control of the room and that he doesn't fear this getting
4:57
out he doesn't fear that you guys are here um i'm gonna like elbow timmy to let out
5:04
like a big like performance of a lifetime okay um and as you do um timmy like
5:12
starts to kind of stagger forward and he reaches his hand out and he goes oh the clouds look at the pretty clouds as
5:19
he starts reaching out right towards the warden the warden looks to his side to one of the guards as the
5:25
guard takes out his manacles and begins walking towards timmy the guard is walking towards timmy does he not look nervous about potentially getting this
5:32
check on this guard uh uh 17 seventeen he looks more worried
5:38
about the warden than about any disease ex and i snap my fingers and i cast
5:45
blindness on what yes you're doing
5:52
constitution saving throw for the war uh that's gonna be a 15 on constitution
5:58
he fails and as he as uh ashes immediately burst
6:04
uh in front of his eyes uh to to completely blind him i say there now you're as blind externally as you are
6:11
internally look at this waste of a man you've appointed as your leader clean them up um
6:25
um just real quick i'm gonna say oh no it started everybody cover your eyes or you'll go blind as well the dream will
6:31
spread make a deception check
6:37
oh that is a 22. uh 22. okay a couple of the guards
6:44
look a little bit more worried um okay i'm gonna have everyone roll initiative
6:50
all right oh man oh geez all right kellick
6:58
four wait sorry uh what oh no it's a nine i thought oh two
7:04
uh so that is uh uh 11. [Music] okay uh alma
7:10
15 15 try it 18 18.
7:17
faraday not 20 for a total of 22. wow that's awesome god damn flynn i got an 11 as
7:24
well uh i don't know if you need my dice mine but i think it's supposed to work okay kellie what's your
7:29
next mod uh plus two okay so glenn
7:37
okay um first up faraday what are you doing you see ashes burst forth from the warden's
7:43
eyes um and you see the guards getting ready to attack what are you how many guards appear to be nervous and not
7:49
attacking because they're sure what i said about the deception we're not sure yet it's it's in a split moment you
7:54
can't uh can't analyze all of them um faraday what are you doing um so
8:00
you look over and you see my nostrils flare my eyes turn from red to a deep
8:06
brown the fur on my knuckles and my feet deep into the same brown you'll hear a very deep guttural grumble as they
8:13
settle into a launching position and enter into rage
8:19
nice okay that's uh bonus action right yes that is bonus section into rage and uh
8:26
which of the guards was moving in towards us um so at this point three of the guards are
8:32
moving in towards you guys and um are just about 10 feet in front of you
8:39
so i am going to uh reckless attack and go after the
8:45
closest guard number one okay [Music]
8:53
25 to hit yeah a 25 for sure hits um roll your damage
9:03
[Music] 11 11 points of damage
9:09
awesome and then i'm going to bonus stack okay um which weapon are you using brother i am using the mall the mall
9:16
okay [Music] and that is a 19 to
9:21
19 hits yeah
9:26
okay um you swing this maul and the first one hits him across the shoulder and just with the momentum kind of turns
9:34
him around and you swing your maul and you hit him in the back and you hear a crunch right as you hit in the back as
9:40
the the plate armor digs into its back and he falls to the ground completely limp
9:45
and i'm going to stay at that more sort of front position okay
9:51
taking one of the guards out is he dead yeah bam all right all right dude just
9:57
collapses okay
10:03
next up is the warden he is going to stand up
10:08
and he is going to he's blind he is blind he's going to uh
10:14
yeah and i told him he's going to he's catching dream rock you have i don't think he's convinced
10:22
he stands up and you can see um both of his hands are glowing this golden energy that's
10:29
pouring out from both of his hands as he places both of his hands up on his eyes and he is going to use his action
10:37
to rid himself of any conditions that befall him so he's using his action to
10:45
unblind himself does this appear to be um holy magic or some kind of
10:50
like can i determine the source of this this power uh yeah make an arcana check okay
10:58
uh 15. uh 15. you have heard of some um
11:04
paladins being able to use just their sheer force of will and
11:09
devotion to cast magic as opposed to being tied to any specific deity
11:14
that appears to be the case here that is going to be his action
11:20
yeah that's going to be all he does um as he frees himself from the blindness
11:25
next up shraya i am going to leap out of the pocket
11:30
and i am going to scurry my weight
11:35
over to the warden and crawl up the warden crawl up the warden's leg
11:40
and in some sweeping movements and motions i don't know what kind of check this is
11:47
i am going to attempt to like use my tiny little like
11:52
cl like the little claws i guess on my fingers to like
11:58
imitate like a tickling sensation on the warden that might resemble chills
12:06
again nigh impossible but that's what i'm going for even if it fails miserably the
12:12
the least effect that i would want to get would be that he is like uncomfortably tickled by me [Music]
12:19
make a stealth check at disadvantage awesome
12:28
uh so that is a [Music] where is my stuff okay uh
12:35
14 uh 14 okay we'll see if he notices you
12:42
he looks down and sees and looks directly at you he makes eye contact yet
12:47
okay this is bad yeah well i mean it am i able to
12:55
actually get on to him i'm still going to want to create this leg i'm still on his leg okay just the deception of the tingling handling has not worked and
13:01
that has not worked okay um then in that case uh i'm gonna use the rest of my
13:06
action to crawl down to his foot and bite his toe or was that the action can i not bite no
13:12
i'll give you a bite i'll give you a bite okay uh yeah roll your attack all right
13:18
[Music] uh yep nothing to hit so that is a thirteen a thirteen does not hit
13:25
so i miss that you dig your teeth in but they just they they don't make it past the skin your teeth just don't dig in
13:32
far enough to actually make any damage frustratedly
13:39
okay um is that the end of your turn yeah that's my turn okay um next up
13:47
let's see one of these guards
13:54
okay um the guard heard you homer and looks back to the warden who is now
14:01
just in a full-on frenzy and it seems that their fear of the warden
14:07
has for at least the time being overtaken the fear of of what you have said um so
14:12
this guard is going to um walk up towards
14:18
kellik he's right there um and that is going to be a spear
14:23
attack against kellik so [Music]
14:33
kellick does a 16 hit just hits just hits okay that's gonna be
14:41
[Music] that is gonna be three points of piercing damage
14:48
didn't roll very high on that thank the gods
14:53
okay next up um oma um i'm gonna see that the warden has um
14:59
like used magic to unblind himself and i'm going to recall when i tried to
15:05
wrap the thread around shraya's neck it was affecting his magic
15:11
so i am going to take a running slide towards the ankles of the warden and
15:18
wrap the no magic [Music]
15:24
string around his ankle okay
15:29
i'm going to have you make a slight of hand check for me oh boy one of us
15:38
18. damn okay you run up you slide down and you're just able to wrap this thing
15:44
around his ankle oh is that my action that would be your action um and yeah that would be your
15:51
action um so i how many more feet um and then i'm going to take
15:56
that was 15 feet of movement i'm gonna go 15 more in the opposite behind him behind him yeah 15 more in the same
16:02
direction yeah um both him and well yeah so i'm running on slides no matter where
16:09
you go you are leaving the combat area okay okay so you would get an attack of opportunity from both the
16:15
wardrobe oh okay um then i will just stay at his ankles i guess okay
16:21
all right um all right come on you don't want to high-five me
16:27
yeah high-five the little rat let's buy his ankle next up um oh no that guard's dead
16:36
flynn um uh looking around again where what do i
16:42
like what's behind me um and then oh so like what's behind me and then what's right behind you is the elevator shaft
16:48
so we just came out just uh hold deep into the earth um and do i see
16:54
uh cell block d or whatever it was do i see how far away it is yes so it is across
16:59
the room from you um so you're gonna have to go around the side of the room to get to it
17:07
do i remember them saying that the key that we have works all these elevators in this area it only works for sub-block a you would
17:14
have to get a separate key for for that sub-block i know where to get that uh is it like a building here yeah so
17:21
you know you got the key for sub-block a in the guard post that was next to it i will go there
17:27
okay i'm just going to book it that way but not to the a1 to the d1 whichever one
17:35
how much movement do you have uh 25 as a little but i'll uh dash
17:42
okay you would just be able to get to the entrance oh okay uh is that with dash that is
17:48
with that okay um
17:53
do i do i see a way in like there's an open door right in front of you yeah um
17:58
yeah i mean i i that's my action in my um uh [Music]
18:06
i might uh yell out what are we doing are we are we going
18:13
all right that's my turn i don't know what else to do i don't want to hurt anyone kellick oh boy
18:20

18:31
bloody place i'm gonna bane uh
18:37
the guy in front of me the guy uh in front of faraday and the warden
18:43
okay so that's our charisma saving throws christmas saving throws
18:49

18:55
sick good for him that is a 12 for the second one fails okay and for the warden
19:00
[Music] it's a 22.
19:06

19:18
menacing's there i cast a menacing's there
19:24
his direction already has a spell so oh right he can't i'm sorry
19:33
okay um next up a bunch of the guards are gone okay so um
19:38
let's see so uh one of these guards is going to is going to run up
19:45
to faraday and is going to make a spear attack
19:50
a 13 to hit mrs misses okay that's one
19:59
next one another guard um is going to run up to faraday the one that's banned actually is going to run up to faraday another
20:06

20:12
always uh so that's going to be [Music]
20:18
and 11 yeah yes and 11 does 11 hit
20:23
no okay courtesy is accurate um nice disadvantage to hitter yeah you have
20:29
advantage okay then i will take that advantage oh that's yeah okay still banged
20:34
significantly it's still yeah yeah that's going to be a 19 okay that spear is gonna be
20:40
[Music] seven points of piercing damage and because i'm raging that is only half so that is three three points nice okay um
20:49
and then let's see uh another one of these guards is going to actually the the two remaining guards
20:55
here are um frozen they're just gonna they're just gonna wait as they are heating uh what alma
21:02
said there you can see that they're kind of weighing in their heads nice um exactly what's going on um
21:08
and uh the two guards who came up with you guys as well are also gonna hold see what happens
21:14
yeah so that's four combatants taken out um faraday
21:21
castro you always were a fool stop this right now okay um are you attempting to get him to
21:29
stop attacking yes okay um
21:36
make a intimidation check for me 14. uh 14. um
21:42
he seems pretty dead set on what he's doing at this point um he was blinded by kellic he seems
21:48
metaphorically metaphorically and literally and literally he was to make a point yes he
21:54
was if only he understood that he's
22:07
i think so let's see the warden um i already wrapped it around try it so if we can't
22:12
oma's right in front of him so he's gonna make a couple of attacks at oma
22:18
um yeah he's gonna he's gonna unsheath his great sword
22:23
and he is going to raise it way over his head and just take a couple of massive swings
22:30
murdering a little girl jesus that's going to be a 22 to hit on the first one yeah
22:35
[Music] that is going to be
22:42
13 points of slashing damage okay [Music] then he's going to take another one
22:52
and that is going to be a 17 to hit it hits okay [Music]
23:02
that is going to be 11 points of damage
23:07
and as he is raising his sword up over his head and takes us uh uh is getting ready to take that second swing at you
23:14
um you can see he sort of mutters something under his breath and his hands begin to
23:19
glow gold and it begins to come up onto the sword but then retracts back into his hands as uh the sword comes down uh
23:26
and that is yeah that's gonna be his turn he can't
23:31
do anything that's else okay next up
23:38
try you're still a mouse i'm still yeah i'm gonna so these orbs in his hands
23:45
uh they're like physical things they're not just like amorphous magic balls no it's
23:50
like it's like golden light that's flowing off of his hands okay so they're not actual physical objects correct yeah okay
23:56
um [Music] i [Laughter] i am going to
24:04
what i'm going to do is i'm going to crawl to the very top of his head like mess up
24:09
his hair or whatever like whatever's on the top of his head i'm just going to like like bleep my feet
24:16
on the top of his head okay and then like just [Music]
24:22
in his ear and then just leap off of him okay in an attempt to just freak him out
24:28
okay um oh make an intimidation check yeah yeah
24:34
that sounds right that sounds good
24:40
rat intimidation uh that's 10 a 10 okay where you leap into i'm leaping just off
24:46
next to him preferably not toward the endless dark pit uh in an attempt to uh run toward i'm gonna try to follow flynn
24:54
oh okay use my movement after leaping off all right um if you're running towards flynn he's going to take his sword and
25:00
he's going to turn around and he's going to try and take a break as you uh leave his range he has
25:05
disadvantage because i'm a small creature [Music] how much movement do you have to get out of the way
25:11
i'm going to say you would just be able to get five feet out of the way okay with all of the movement that you ran up here
25:18
that's fair okay that's still gonna be a 16 to hit 16.
25:24
now yeah that hits that hits someone's not going to be a rat much longer unfortunately
25:30
um that is going to be eight points of slashing damage yeah
25:36
can i can i can i be unconscious can i be an unconscious rat no you just i know when you're
25:44
yeah so you see me splayed out on the ground uh the fur just expands and buckles and wings
25:50
sprout out and the head cranes around and the beak just as you see life go back into this body
25:58
and and the the the as it as it started the crystal is the last thing to materialize from fur but does that freak
26:05
past um no it does
26:11
he's unshakable yeah yeah he is um all right next up uh the guard right in front of kellik he's gonna take another
26:18
uh spear attack at you no doubt he's paying nothing
26:27
yeah it's going to be a 10 to hit that is not it okay he misses
26:32
his attack out of the way oma um i am lying on the floor in front of
26:37
um hassel bleeding a lot um and i this this like um
26:45
red just takes over my eyes just just like it's like seeing red but magnified by
26:53
1500 and um i look at his glowing hands that kind of retracted back in and i
27:00
from the ground look up at him i smile and i'm like have kind of like blood all over me
27:07
it looks like your magic left you not me and i am gonna shift
27:13

27:20
cast burning hands at third level okay let's go dude

30:51
to cast a spell onto my sword i just raise them up and as i'm just raising my hand up my fingers already start to glow
30:58
as feeling that energy and that magic seems easier to do now and all i just do is snap and uh my fingers turn into a
31:07
like a bit of flame and i quickly run them across my blade and i will attack uh the one
31:12
one of them doesn't matter which one but uh i will do i will do an attack on them all right um make an attack roll got it

33:44
to hit i assume that does not hit are we still doing with the oh disadvantage that's right that's even
33:50
lower no it if an 11 doesn't hit then no we're good well don't you only isn't reckless just one round
33:56
[Music] because she didn't attack recklessly this round that's right
34:01
he misses either way uh next up let's see um
34:09
you got another guard right in front of you he is bained that's gonna be another 11 to hit um
34:15
and i mean nine with the bank yeah
34:23
um and then let's see this guard who was holding off
34:29
just saw his other buddy who was also holding off get charred to a crisp so he's gonna join in the fight sure um
34:34
he's going to run up to oma and make a spear attack that's going to be a 19 to hit that hits
34:42
okay um with the spear
34:48
that's gonna be nine points of piercing damage so with him being within five feet of me
34:54
can i have a sentinel reaction yes of course you can i'm going to attack
35:00

35:06
uh 16 yeah that hits that makes contact [Music]
35:12
12 of legend and now he is stuck because he can't move okay 12 of lightning in
35:20
wow okay he is not looking too great um that did a lot of damage to him
35:28
but next up that's it that's all of them um the
35:34
other one is dead so uh faraday you get uh your turn again what would you like to do
35:39
i am going to uh reckless attack i'm going to attack

35:53
that and that is the 17 to hit 17 hits yeah
35:59
[Music] 12 of bludgeoning
36:06
okay and then i'm going to turn around to the one that is bained because i also did
36:12

36:18
that one or nine nine does not
36:24
okay um all right next up flynn
36:29
you got this other guard in the room with you um he is going to take a spear attack okay

that is going to be an 18 to hit uh shield so raise my hand up block it
36:41

36:48
um next up the warden [Music]
36:54
with alma right in front of him and shraya right next and ashrae right
37:00
next to him i'm gonna say it is my dm decision that it is his
37:05
bonus action to reach down and rip the thread from his ankle
37:12
as a bonus as a bonus i tied it real tight though what's going
37:17
on with this guy it's it's the middle of combat i'm gonna say he he doesn't have
37:23
any finesse he's i'm gonna roll for a strength check it's a it's a tiny little string which he
37:28
[ __ ] blows out of the water um bonus action he reaches down rips this thing off of his leg
37:34
and oma you're right in front of him he's going to make two attacks at you once again one that's
37:40
one fewer smite though right because smite's bonus action is a bonus action yeah so it's one more
37:46
smite not done so that for the first attack with his great sword that is gonna be a 21 to hit
37:54
yeah that hits [Music] that is gonna be ten points of slashing
38:00
damage and his second attack
38:06
[Music] that's gonna be a 24 to hit that hit [Music]
38:15
give me seven points of flashing
38:21
okay that is that's going to be the end of his turn
38:27
um all right next up tria does he look weird at all but he's just like mowing
38:32
down a little 12 year old no girl doesn't seem phased not even a little bit what are you doing [Music]
38:38
so uh seeing oma just get completely like heaped upon heaped upon all these
38:45
attacks uh as i as i come to back in my previous form i crane my head to the
38:50
side and i whisper uh wisps of healing energy through the crystal as it uh
38:57
concentrates and then shoots in a straight line uh toward oma as i
39:03
am going to cast i'm going to cast um
39:08
healing word at third level okay and
39:14
that that's all healing words are bonus actions correct i believe so yeah uh okay so that will be
39:20
[Music]
39:27
uh 12 points of healing wow over to oma uh and then
39:33
i am going to ah i'm going to
39:39
run toward where i saw i'm going to turn my head back toward because that was my direction i'm going
39:45
to go run as far as i can toward the room that flynn is in okay
39:51
um is anything happening with zeta um you see that uh sorry i'm just
39:57
distracted a couple of times during this fight she's like sort of almost jumped in and
40:02
you can see her like beginning to almost cast something but the the shackles around here her seem to to keep her from
40:09
casting um but try you're using your full movement to get over there yes as close as i can anyway
40:14
do be able to just get in the doorway all right that's where i am and the warden seeing that you
40:20
are healing your companions he's going to raise his fist up in the air and he's going to shout
40:27
hold steady man and he is going to use a legendary action
40:33
to turn the tide um what is that uh he
40:39
is going to expel radiant energy from the fist that he's raising in his hand um to all of his uh guards who have
40:46
taken damage and they are all going to just heal a little bit no way
40:55
[Music] okay um you look and you see a couple of the
41:01
guards who have been hit and injured their wounds begin to to close up and
41:07
they a little bit more life begins to pour into them you're not sure how much
41:13
but they seem to be doing a little bit better than they were previously um and that is too all of the his enemies who
41:19
have been or all of his allies who have been attacked next up
41:25
one of those guards calek right in front of you spear attack
41:30
right towards your torso that's going to be a crit fail nice so he lunges forward and completely
41:37
misses uh next up oma um i'm gonna expend a key point
41:44
okay and um bonus action disengage
41:49

44:59
[Laughter] [Music]
45:07

45:12
i look at my hands and i look around
45:18

45:24
a spear blow and i'm just like still still looking in her direction anyway
45:29
um i'm covered i'm like dripping blood it it doesn't specify but i am
45:35
gonna rule that you still have to hold concentration on this but for the time being but i'm away from
45:40
everyone i'm not nearby and jordan is no longer in the room
45:51
yeah okay all right um when you take away the dm's legendary
45:57
enemy he was just about to use a legendary action too um okay next up uh flynn the guard right in front of you
46:04
yeah so as i turn around and i say this i kind of like pause for just a moment
46:10
whereas realizing i don't know how i feel about that good bad
46:17
and i look up at this another guard and i raise my fingers and they start to glow and i see try i come around the corner i
46:23
put my hand down and i go in for two non-lethal attacks okay make attack rules
46:28
[Laughter] 20
46:34
25 and 20. okay [Applause]
46:42
all right these are non-lethal uh ten points of damage
46:47
okay and then the other one is eleven points of damage okay um how are you
46:53
he is knocked out how are you doing yeah
46:58
and i just like raised my sword and kind of uh cut him once across the armor to kind of
47:04
like wound him and then seeing that he's wounded i i raised the bullet of my weapon and just hit him in the head
47:10
australia i couldn't the other one jumped me in
47:15
he's dead [Music] and i look for the key okay
47:21
um [Music]
47:27
as i see alma do this [Music] i'm gonna look to all these guys that
47:33
are still around me and faraday do you still really want to do this huh
47:40
did you rally around your captain there make an intimidation check at advantage
47:45
[Music] uh intimidation uh
47:51
21. seeing that the warden is no longer there
47:56
and looking around at the other guards that you guys have just killed or knocked unconscious
48:03
all of the guards dropped their weapons [Music]
48:09
do i see the key i'm just gonna sit quietly in the corner for a minute yeah he would come back after a minute oh
48:15
what he would he will come back oh [ __ ] okay so quick so never
48:27
then let's can we stay in initiative then so that we can like move quickly or should we not stay in initiative so that we know actually what a minute is um
48:34
no let's let's move out of initiative and i'll judge um okay cool so flynn right
48:40
right as this happens um you're looking around and you see not on the wall but sort of under the table
48:45
hanging there you see some keys okay i'll just grab them all okay grab them all do i see a uh well do i see like a
48:52
labeling system at all like no i'll grab them all okay grab them all grab them all and i'll be like try a
48:58
i look down at the body again uh then i killed him look back up at him let's go
49:04
we need to move quickly i'm gonna pick up the um the string that was like like after he tore
49:10
it off it was dropped to the ground i'm gonna pick up the string okay okay hopefully it still works do i feel anything from it um he it it feels like
49:18
a part of it snapped but it still feels like it's okay it's still got whatever energy it had before so
49:24
let's go yeah yeah so i run out guys i have the keys come on let's i want to take
49:30
pushing off the blood off of my cloak and i'm just looking angrily can we let's take um let's take zeta with us
49:37
can i take her can we take her chains off yes um yeah so i'm gonna have who's uh taking her chains off i'm gonna make
49:44
that a sleight of hand are you gonna use the the string imaging no because they're magical they're not magical yeah
49:50
they weren't yeah because they were a magical person okay yeah so i mean i don't want multiple of those i
49:55
don't want five originally right no we just have one just one one yeah but it's been used multiple times okay all right
50:02
what are you guys doing so yeah she's gonna like they're i'm assuming can we all just like meet over here like towards the d towards the yeah yeah you
50:08
guys i'll wait until we're in the elevator to take her magic thing off yeah faraday which one and i'm like i
50:14
hold out all these keys that i have in my hands i'm gonna look through and can i quickly pick out the yes you you
50:20
quickly grab which one is the elevator i still keep all of them okay hopefully maybe they won't be able to follow us
50:26
okay i don't know that's a guess the award probably has something but yeah um so as you guys are are moving down uh
50:32
you guys get about to floor five before oma whatever hold you had on the warden you
50:38
can sort of feel it release and you guys keep moving down and moving down and you guys get to the floor um
50:45
that is labeled that that xavier is on and right as you get there
50:51
you hear from up above this deep gong here we go we gotta go boom
50:57
[Music] and as you guys get to this floor in
51:03
subblock d you look around and there's a lot less cells you see the cells are a lot bigger but
51:08
you look into the cells and you guys see what you had seen before all of these creatures that are in here
51:15
completely locked into place with these magical chains around them just as you had seen xavier before
51:20
um completely locked no movement in any of their bodies as they're
51:26
chained into place best laid plans okay um so we've released sata in the elevator okay let me look at your wounds
51:32
there and i'll apply a healer's kit to ulna oh nice
51:38
nine plus so 16 nice points of healing nice knowing at remembering
51:45
uh that where xavier was i'm just gonna quickly say that's three minutes and take us to the right uh right side of
51:52
the cell and start heading towards xavier cell okay okay yeah faraday takes you directly towards his cell and um
51:59
shraya a very similar situation to where you had seen xavier before the long salt and pepper hair coming down over
52:05
his face a beard has as sort of like a stubbly beard has begun to grow um you see these
52:12
these robes that are over him just perfectly locked into place unmoving and i i
52:17
uh caustically yet uh kind of absurdly jesting with him what say you i told you i'd come back
52:23
for you and you see that at this point an additional metal band has been put
52:28
around his his mouth too and you look into his eyes and he sort of raises one eyebrow at you and gives you a little
52:36
little nut i sneak around from behind shraya right up to the door savior
52:42
and his eyes fall into this this very calm look and uh he looks over back at shri and he
52:48
gives you a little wink and looks back at home all right how do we get into this cell
52:55
faraday has the keys all right okay yeah open up the door you are in the
53:00
cell i'm gonna run into the cell and i'm gonna wrap um and i'm just gonna say if you're what have they done to you and
53:07
wrap the no magic the magic nulling thing around his arm one arm and then the other arm okay and as soon as you do
53:14
the chain falls completely lamp and his arm kind of drops down to the ground and then his other arm drops down to the
53:20
ground he still has these heavy chains on him but they are no longer magically imbued faraday do you know how to get them off hey fred's no slouchy that
53:27
string works wonders yeah faraday do you know how to get the chains off would the keys be
53:33
um yes so having in in this cell block there are more keys so a separate key would be used to unlock
53:40
this portion of the chain okay so i'm going to run towards the guard post to try to get those keys okay uh the keys
53:47
that flynn currently has are actually one of them would be able to work these
53:58
okay and after a couple seconds um all the chains come undone and finally the mouthpiece is removed and he looks to
54:04
all of you any sort of nods to oma and he looks back at shraya and
54:11
good job i didn't quite know what it would take but i knew it could be done
54:16
and he uh he drops down to his knees and kind of opens up his arms towards oma i run and i just like throw my arms
54:23
around i'm bleeding everywhere but yeah gives you a huge hug and as he's sort of like patting you on the back of the head
54:30
um this uh these like wisps of purple energy sort of come off of his fingers and you are healed to full health
54:36
[Music] jeez i look kind of annoyed at this
54:44
um and he looks to the rest what's the plan i assume you have a plan
54:49
but you assume and correctly so we had a plan we did and it was a really good plan but
54:56
it caught on to us it didn't work yes we we definitely had a plan to get in here but not so much one to get out
55:04
we had one to get out but it didn't work how did you how long you said three minutes three minutes till what
55:10
and three minutes for the entire present they'll lock all the entrances and then start coming down level by level until
55:16
they locate the threat we gotta go they've already locked the only one that really matters is the way out
55:22
i would normally be fine but i don't have any of the the the things i can i can use to cast um
55:27
i'm i'm kind of lost here where would they have kept do they have your things here no i'm i'm sure they
55:33
wouldn't um i wasn't even i i was stripped of all my things at a previous prison
55:40
is there any uh mechanism is there anything in the works of this facility that may
55:46
it's a long shot here release a fail-safe that just releases all of the doors at once
55:54
nothing i would have access to down here however right now our best fantasy is to see if the elevators are still working
56:00
if they have not yet locked them down that can try to get it as far as fast as we possibly can okay i mean we've been
56:06
moving pretty quick so far so we got three minutes let's just go okay let's move back on the elevator come on
56:12
everyone all right um you guys jump back on the elevator you guys ready for a fight
56:17
and as you guys are being raised back up i'm gonna have everyone roll initiative um once again as we're being raised up
56:23
um oh my gosh my sword as we're being raised up a bonus action
56:28
some of my bow strength across the quiver comes back to my my back uh strap
56:34
and kind of pull my sword back out okay um i like to imagine it it was
56:40
supposed to go in your backpack so it just falls next i'm gonna turn to faraday
56:46
and i'm gonna hold i'm gonna reach into my um my sock and pull out um a vial of potion
56:53
that is sparkly and shimmery and i'm gonna turn to faraday and i'm gonna say um
56:59
you're already really big but you wanna get even bigger and maybe you can just squash everyone
57:06
and i'm gonna hand it to her and i said i um this can make you as big as as big as
57:11
like like 13 feet tall um
57:17
what do you think you are absolutely full of surprises
57:22
let's see how far we can get in the elevator all right you take are you grab the
57:28
potion are you yeah not i mean not until we get into somewhere that she can be that big but
57:34
but she's holding on to it is this an open open ceiling elevator yes this is hit
57:40
them all in one hand position do we know how long it lasts an hour um yes it lasts an hour but this this
57:46
doesn't like there's no like exit there's no like ceiling outside of this no it goes it goes straight up into the
57:53
the floor that you guys were currently or that you guys were previously fighting right but above that there's no like there's a roof over that though
57:59
yes and that's what the stairs that took you down to there that's what's currently blocked by the stone okay
58:07
okay um as you guys get to the top um you look and in front of you there's
58:13
that that spiral staircase that's currently completely blocked off by stone on your left you see um a bunch of
58:19
guards that have uh come from you don't know where maybe they open the slab and let more in um but you see more
58:27
guards standing there and off to the right you see with another group you see the ward standing there
58:34
he looks pissed yeah so with that i'm gonna have everyone roll initiative um
58:39
first up kellick uh 11 again
58:45
11. consistently bad at initiative nice which is good for clerics um oma 23
58:52
23 oh yeah natural 20. [Music] um next up is shraya
58:59
uh seven seven faraday fifteen fifteen i also got
59:05
a fifteen okay um what is your dex modifier uh plus four and what's fairness okay so
59:12
flynn goes first give me one moment here
59:21
you all have a wild magic thing again yeah just banish them again can you do that again can i just do that again
59:27
get lost again oh man it doesn't work
59:37
[Music]
59:43
okay um first up in the initiative oma what are you doing you see a total of 10
59:50
guards plus the word just banish them all yeah you did it once
59:56
um and as you guys get to the the top of the elevator um xavier having
1:00:01
no magic currently to speak of um he steps with tito and they kind of take a
1:00:07
step back wait taking um letting you guys take the front line so oma what are you doing how does zeta look so zeta looks like she's ready for
1:00:13
it she's gonna looks pumped up and i think i know this person really
1:00:22
girls um who knows what's happened to her down here though very true okay so i am going to
1:00:29
bonus action um [Music] um i'm going to bonus action
1:00:35
or sorry yeah i'm gonna um twin spell um
1:00:43
um [Music] one second
1:00:49
yeah two two chaos bolts um in two different
1:00:55
directions twin spells so i'm gonna send them in two different directions i'm at level three um one towards one starting
1:01:02
at one towards the warden and one towards the um number um the the guards on the other side start with seven i
1:01:08
guess like the closest guard to me on the other side um should i roll attack twice on those or
1:01:15
roll attack twice because it's a twin spell so that's what i'm saying is it but is it for them
1:01:20
i would say yeah roll it twice
1:01:27
um i think they both fail okay two of them you're at a you're at a one
1:01:34
so yes two two
1:01:51
we can't vanish again ourselves what if we all got banished
1:01:57
to the fire plane and then caught dream run and that could create the irony
1:02:03
okay um uh as soon as you cast the spell you almost
1:02:09
hear your eardrums burst [Music] but then everything goes completely silent
1:02:17
as the volume begins to get from lower to louder to louder to louder
1:02:22
and everything around you almost begins to scream you can hear each of the pieces of metal between the
1:02:29
guards uh the armor moving you can hear the heartbeats of everyone in the room
1:02:34
uh you can hear people 30 floors down within the prison
1:02:39
speaking to one another you can hear absolutely everything in this prison
1:02:45
and you get advantage on all hearing perception checks for the next hour
1:02:50
all right i mean not a bandage but not bad do i hear more guards lining up outside
1:02:58
nice um uh you currently hear the rest of the prison beginning to lock down so you
1:03:04
hear guards um sort of going to their stations you don't hear guards up top directly from where you are currently
1:03:10
you do hear doors closing though all right um next up one of these guards is going to
1:03:18
uh break the line run up and run up towards flynn uh he's going to do a spear attack
1:03:24
that is going to be that's a natural 20. uh what's the total the total
1:03:31
is i don't know i think i think it gets uh 23 yeah okay yeah okay that is going to be
1:03:41
13 points of piercing damage oh okay [Music]
1:03:48
next up the warden [Music] the warden is gonna run up
1:03:54
still mad at me
1:04:00
um but actually flynn is closer so he's gonna run up towards uh towards flynn
1:04:06
and uh he is going to yeah he's gonna take a couple of swings
1:04:13
at you with his uh with his sword [Music] that first one
1:04:21
i was gonna be an eight to hit eight does nothing next one that's going to be a dirty 20
1:04:26
to hit uh shield shield okay yeah why couldn't even hitting you this whole
1:04:32
time yeah yeah so i raised my hand up and just
1:04:37
quickly the the shimmering barrier holds steadfast around my platform
1:04:43
okay um that is that's his turn
1:04:49
next up on the initiative um you guys here sort of piping up from
1:04:55
behind you um [Music] xavier who
1:05:01
is uh who's standing there and he's sort of been eyeing all of you guys and he looks over towards kellik
1:05:09
and he looks down towards your belt where you have a couple of
1:05:16
bags of spell components oh all right you got to keep all of your spell components that's right
1:05:21
oh right and he looks and he points and he says you get here now
1:05:28
and that's going to be his turn um next up
1:05:33
another one of the guards is going to run up um would he have to run by me
1:05:39
no no because you guys are sort of in a line here um he's going to attack shraya so shraya
1:05:46
that's going to be a 21 to hit oh that is
1:05:53
that is going to be six points of piercing damage
1:05:59
all right next up flynn
1:06:05
oh me already um you got the warden and another guard directly in front of you
1:06:10
man that's so hard to not kill people
1:06:17
[Music] given the circumstances
1:06:24
um knowing that uh the warden was originally planning on or has been
1:06:30
dealing with alma and hurting alma and potentially maybe was going to try and attack her i will
1:06:35
try to prevent that a little bit and i will unsheathe my sword and just
1:06:41
my fingers i raise him up and without even having to again i just i snap and you see you see the
1:06:47
glowing energy from my fingers instead of having to warm it up and i just immediately tap once instead of uh
1:06:52
multiple times on my sword and it activates the booming blade and i come down with a strike on the ward end okay
1:06:58
make an attack roll i shall uh
1:07:04
that's uh 23 yeah 23 heads all right so this does some damage what
1:07:10
does that on a hit yes so uh it takes um as i as i cut
1:07:16
some of the energy just expands this cut and uh and stretches it more as he takes
1:07:21
uh five points of uh thunder damage as well on top of that okay and that that cut is
1:07:28
now pulsing uh and just like it's not ripping anymore but it seems like it's like on
1:07:33
the brink and it's just like there um and quickly i will turn
1:07:38
and uh bring my sword back up as i did that a lot quicker than normal as i can now do
1:07:44
an attack as bonus action so i'll use my bonus action okay to swing upwards again and and cut him again
1:07:51
stay here make an attack roll oh that's really low um
1:07:57
[Music] uh 12. uh 12 does not hit as you you actually
1:08:02
make contact with the armor but not enough to actually uh deal any damage and i will uh yeah i'll just stay there
1:08:08
and try and keep his attention all right faraday so i am going to just before i'm going
1:08:14
to enter into a rage nice and i am going to
1:08:20
charge up i'm going to uh reach out to the potion that oma gave me
1:08:28
i'm going to swing it what does it taste like and how does it feel it tastes extremely bitter it's almost like you're
1:08:35
drinking like a liquefied root um very earthy very bitter um
1:08:41
and uh as oma had mentioned to you earlier like she said you'd be able to increase your size so as you're drinking
1:08:47
it back you sort of are thinking about that increase in size and all of a sudden you grow and enlarge to 13 feet
1:08:55
tall you're actually a dragon now yes you are massive so um i am going to
1:09:03
reckless attack i'm gonna step out and basically uh swing him like a golf ball and hit the warden
1:09:10
okay all right come into the hole right there yeah make an attack swing down
1:09:18
21 to hit uh 21 which you are also adding plus five because of your
1:09:24
increased size so yeah at 26. so any added trolls and
1:09:29
damage rolls you add plus five because you are making strength strength-based um attacks
1:09:36
so uh the right person to take that one roll [Music]
1:09:44
that is 18. 18. okay um i'm also gonna have you make a strength check ad
1:09:51
advantage for me [Music] plus five yeah plus eight
1:09:57
plus eight plus five what plus your your regular modifier plus five
1:10:05
[Music] twenty oh jesus that's a big difference
1:10:11
um you swing down at this dwarf and
1:10:21
still you swing down and with your increased size um are able to actually lift this dwarf up off of the ground you
1:10:28
see him flying through the air totally unconscious um as he hits the warden
1:10:33
four seven points of bludgeoning damage hey
1:10:38
human dwarven excuse me dwarven projectiles yes okay um
1:10:45
is so he is he now out of the way so i'm oh yeah near the warden now
1:10:50
uh do you want to move up towards the warden yes okay i'm going to move toward it and use extra attack oh
1:10:57
that's right you've got another attachment [Music]
1:11:03
um about 13 does not hit no does she have to are you supposed to
1:11:08
add the is the five to five is to everything
1:11:17
um okay next up uh another one of these guards
1:11:22
uh seeing faraday's increased size is going to run up and try and attack faraday that is going to be a 21 to hit
1:11:30
okay eight points of piercing damage
1:11:38
cutting i do not like being spoken to this way
1:11:46
by anybody so i will first like raise my eyebrows
1:11:51
skeptically like okay this is really how we're gonna and then i will um
1:11:56
what's the word uh lethargically slowly kind of uh uh
1:12:02
turn to xavier because i think i'm right next to him yes uh and i will i will hand him my
1:12:08
component pouch um uh and assuming that's not an action
1:12:15
um i will also um put my hand on his heart
1:12:22
and once again cast enhanceability oh okay and i'm going to
1:12:29
um this time uh this time it's the little proof in front of my hand on his heart
1:12:34
but it spreads up to his shoulders and he gets the uh a a certain uh ashy uh
1:12:41
mantle that i have seen before uh as he gets bears endurance right so he gains 286 temporary hit points and he has
1:12:48
advantage on constitution checks that's huge yeah that's a good idea and i just say
1:12:54
i have a name it's catholic okay um he doesn't even acknowledge
1:13:02
uh okay next up we've got two more guards oh my god so many cards a guard
1:13:07
runs up to uh zeta and is going to attempt to spear attack
1:13:14
her which is an 11 which misses um the spear lunges forward and she sort of ducks out
1:13:21
of the way and it goes right over her shoulder as she right in front of her
1:13:28
casts spiritual weapon um and uh as this uh
1:13:36
this this like um this almost seafoam green light begins
1:13:41
to emerge right in front of her it like almost emerges and like makes itself
1:13:47
part of this dwarven guard that's right in front of her and it sort of overtakes his body as the light then coalesces
1:13:54
into this this massive blade like this circular saw that that operates directly in front
1:14:01
of her and she's going to use that to attack
1:14:09
spiritual weapon
1:14:15
by the way uh xavier gets six additional headphones oh nice okay
1:14:20
contemporary okay this is gonna be a melee spell attack [Music]
1:14:26
natural 20. [Music]
1:14:33
okay so this magical energy like coalesces within the dwarf that's directly in front of her and all of a
1:14:39
sudden this circular like saw blade protrudes out from the dwarf
1:14:45
as he freezes and completely splits in half directly in front of zeta a spinning saw
1:14:52
blade uh has appeared made of this this seafoam green energy
1:14:59
solid that is her turn [Music] next up is
1:15:07
shraya uh so i what's my what's the seal i mean 13 feet right
1:15:14
uh is the height or more than 13 feet is the height of the ceiling in here correct but no the ceiling is actually quite low it's quite low yes yeah i it's
1:15:21
it's just about uh probably faraday you have to actually probably
1:15:27
hunch over in in this room it's it's probably no higher than ten feet yeah keep on your knees to fight anyway
1:15:33
yeah i'm crouched yeah uh am i to believe these rectangular uh
1:15:40
figures here are like elevators yes so you are pressed up against the elevators yeah okay so they do but they do have
1:15:46
walls around them i can't like like leap over them
1:15:53
can i see xavier where he is yes you can uh i'm going to use
1:15:59
uh a muse action to call over to xavier xavier you have something in mind to get
1:16:06
us out of here i do get over here uh and i'm just gonna lunge and his name
1:16:12
is tryia and i'm just gonna lunge and use my wings to like
1:16:18
uh just full flush myself i don't know
1:16:24
myself across the push myself across the elevator uh and and get next to xavier
1:16:30
okay um as you land you can see he's beginning to rifle through this this pouch of components and picking certain
1:16:37
things out and right as you land without even looking up at you he reaches his hand out towards your wing and just
1:16:43
plucks a feather out and puts it down with his other components and begins mixing them about
1:16:48
oh my gosh i trust you and i'm going to uh charge up my staff uh it glows with
1:16:56
the purple pink energy as a shield around it forms that's like a layer that
1:17:02
turns it magical and uh now it's pulsing with shilling energy as i uh raise it in
1:17:07
front of xavier to defend any foe that attempts to get toward him okay nice
1:17:13
um all right next up the rest of these guards they are running up
1:17:18
um we've got a couple that are gonna run up towards zeta
1:17:24
and the first one is gonna hit with a spear attack dealing three points of piercing damage
1:17:34
second one is going to run up to zeta also um and is going to miss his spear attack
1:17:40
um and the other two guards over on the left are just gonna
1:17:45
run up and provide support right behind us they can't really quite move around they've got the stairs on one side and
1:17:50
the guard post on the other they can't quite move around um so next up omar
1:17:57
[Music] um
1:18:06
as much as i want to go help zeta i um um the warden like
1:18:13
was really really mean to me so i can't really leave him um so i'm
1:18:19
going to first off um use two sorcery points my last two to cast um a quickened spell
1:18:28
and i keep missing him like everything i've done so far has not really hit him
1:18:35
so i'm going to use tides of chaos okay on my first spell
1:18:41
but i used to quick and specify it too so the first one i'm going to do is i am going to
1:18:46
[Music] um at
1:18:52
second level cast chaos bolts
1:18:59
all right using tides of chaos
1:19:05
natural twenty
1:19:14
um 2d8 and 2d6
1:19:30
is that the damage yes that's the so 2d8 and 2d6 is the total damage so can somebody else do that math for me yes
1:19:38
16 plus 12 plus 12 right 28 28 plus 14. 28 plus 14.
1:19:46
of um fire damage
1:19:51
42 of fire damage he full on takes that fire damage geez
1:19:57
um and as he looks you you uh he he sort of braces himself against the fire and he he pulls up his armor um to brace
1:20:05
himself from as much of it as he can but as he lowers his arm and and that um and
1:20:10
his his armor you can see half of his face just totally charred and you can
1:20:15
see that char coming down to uh to the entire left-hand side of his body okay and then chaos
1:20:21
yep three okay um and then that was quick and spell so i'm going to look him in the eyes as he's melting
1:20:30
who's the tough guy now and hit him again with it another one okay
1:20:37
probably miss um 15. 15 does not hit yeah
1:20:43
okay but still some serious damage laid down um okay
1:20:49
flynn there's a guard right in front of you he's gonna reach out with his spear oh sure that's gonna be a sixth to hit uh yeah
1:20:56
that'll miss yeah it's gonna miss him do you want to use shield let me think uh i think i'll be okay next up the warden
1:21:03
the warden um [Music] faraday is is
1:21:08
massive and right there but he's also been going at flynn he's gonna make an attack towards flynn
1:21:14
flynn is his current target he's going to make two attacks bring it on twice
1:21:20
double bring double bring it on that first swing could be a natural 20. of course
1:21:25
and what so the total i mean it doesn't matter never mind uh there's a natural 20 oh it is a natural tone are you close
1:21:31
enough uh mm-hmm am i am i you are 5 10 15 20 25 30. no you
1:21:38
are not with interest okay oh wait uh no way hang on i'm wrong i can really do he's 45 feet away is it 60 or 30. it's
1:21:45
30. okay i thought it was 60. i'll be all right flynn as he reaches his hands up
1:21:51
his hands also begin to glow [Applause] the base damage for this is going to be
1:21:56
31 points okay let me do that first okay i'm gonna add that 31 31. okay and then on top of that
1:22:06
[Music] gonna be another 13 for the slashing damage okay
1:22:11
and then for the divine smite [Music]
1:22:17
16 points i am unconscious okay as the sword hits me and the pulsing energy
1:22:24
and i fall down okay send some reaction okay
1:22:30
seeing him dragonborn get him i'm going to take a giant swing
1:22:36
at him
1:22:57
[Music]
1:23:04
12 points of damage okay make a
1:23:09
no this is a reaction never mind and he can't move now right yes
1:23:15
okay next up is oh uh with the warden that's right i don't know if he's hitting me again um
1:23:21
no okay you're unconscious he's going to turn to the next biggest threat which is
1:23:26
faraday but he can't move so he can only say he can only attack yeah that's gonna be a
1:23:32
22 to hit fairness okay is going to be
1:23:38
[Music] 15 points of slashing damage
1:23:45
barbarians
1:23:50
as he swings and just uh swipes you across the chest and and sort of at your
1:23:55
clavicle you're able to feel this sword bury itself deep into um your chest and
1:24:02
as you're about to reel back and attack him once more there's a blinding light
1:24:07
around you and the rest of you completely blinded by this white savior
1:24:12
as all of a sudden the white recedes and you feel grass beneath your feet [Applause]
1:24:21
and you see trees around you and you guys can see some rolling hills and just off in the distance
1:24:27
you can see the massive walls of oak inspire you guys are safe and we are out of initiative
1:24:34
is everybody here like timmy am i here and and everyone everyone in your group tito zeta flynn
1:24:43
everyone is here flynn is currently unconscious i'm bleeding out on the ground i don't see any of that
1:24:48
i immediately feel the grass under my feet um i turn to xavier and i just run up to
1:24:55
him and i like throw my arms around his waist okay he gives you a huge hug you can tell he's a little bit weak um not
1:25:01
not at full strength here but he also wraps his hands around you i stumble up just from the shock of it as i turn to
1:25:08
flynn and i and i nearly fall over but i pull myself up to go run to his aid and
1:25:13
and uh restore him okay i lean over to tito and i say tito my my how you've uh i look back at myself
1:25:20
we're here my we've we've grown i'm sorry i don't know who you are
1:25:28
oh you may not you may not have [Music] let's
1:25:34
i'll explain everything shortly so i'm gonna have this initial reaction of just being like because i'm still raging i'm
1:25:40
just like turning around trying to find where the warden is and then realizing like that we are not in the prison anymore
1:25:46
i'm gonna disengage from rage okay i cast uh spare the dying on
1:25:52
flynn fellow weave uh and then i will um apply a healing kit as well
1:25:58
okay do i hear anything interesting since i've got um extra 16 points of views
1:26:04
um since you've got extra hearing make a perception check advantage where are we
1:26:11
we're safe then we're safe all right 20. 20. uh you hear some birds up in the
1:26:17
distance you hear everyone's heartbeat pounding uh but nothing
1:26:24
incredibly out of the ordinary for this situation do you wanna write that um
1:26:30
yeah i'm fine good job all right what where how do how how i give flynn a
1:26:35
little like smack on the face like yeah my face is my face is still smushed into xavier's
1:26:40
um like waist and i just say well
1:26:46
i think that went well you i appointed xavier hill had better be
1:26:52
worth it sir we've been through a lot to get here [Music]
1:26:58
well i mean i can't imagine uh my worth being more than anyone of yours having saved me from
1:27:04
that place what did you do to get thrown behind bars
1:27:10
such as those that's a uh much longer conversation i'm willing to
1:27:17
tell but i think this might not be the place i
1:27:23
where's the closest haven we could go to how far are we from um the circle
1:27:29
so the teleportation circle is sort of on the outskirts of oakland spire it's not too far in to the city um so you
1:27:37
would really the main trek would just be getting back to the city from this open field that you guys are currently in and
1:27:43
the odds of the prison being able to let people know of like this massive outbreak as quickly as we went out is
1:27:50
very unlikely so i think we should go to the teleportation circle
1:27:55
and get out of here [Music]
1:28:01
i need my things i i do too but we can always take the teleportation circle back in a little
1:28:07
bit central but right now you're saying the city probably doesn't know what's going on if we leave and come back in a
1:28:13
few hours they'll know what's going on it might be good to just run in there grab our stuff and go
1:28:18
let's split the difference who can move the fastest i can move really really fast no no i
1:28:24
know exactly where we're going i know exactly where i'm going and i can go really fast because we should get our high-profile targets out of here first i
1:28:30
mean i suppose that's all of us now okay um um
1:28:35
i look over i look over at tito we can probably move the quickest of anyone and it was a high it was a top floor
1:28:43
place we were standing so they could just go through the window yeah don't even have to go in the entrance to
1:28:48
the end we just go in the top won't people see them flying i mean at this point it doesn't really matter does it will i think it's mostly
1:28:55
about speed it's about speed yeah i could go with you
1:29:00
no i think if we're gonna fly we just fly if we're gonna run through the streets quietly are we sneaking or are we like that like that's the thing if we
1:29:06
go for if we go for quiet i can get in and get out i mean it's just my two bags
1:29:13
that's the rest i'm just gonna do it i'm gonna go in and go out i'm just gonna run where do we go
1:29:18
i'll meet you at the teleportation circle i won't let you go alone well you shouldn't go with me um zeta
1:29:25
you know the city really well will you come with me yeah no i'll come with you
1:29:30
can i do i get any spooky vibes from zeta okay make a spooky vodka whatever
1:29:36
um 11. 11. you can't really get a good read you
1:29:42
don't know you can't really pick up on any motivation here
1:29:47
okay um if you don't trust zeta i'll go by
1:29:52
myself xavier can you make us move fast can you move can you get all of this now which
1:29:58
is what i have right now no can you help me flynn's bag
1:30:03
um i guess tria's got history i had everything with me and it's just my bag it's my pack it's your pack and in your
1:30:09
sickle all right yeah also your sickle is not that great i mean you could just like it's a does it really matter
1:30:17
is there's nothing special about it it glows with light don't you just make it glow with light though no it does its own thing okay
1:30:25
without me um yeah so i'm gonna just like um i'm gonna turn to xavier and say i can do this i'll be crying i'll be quick i'll
1:30:31
cast another uh xavier's cool ash and mantle fades and i'll cast enhanceability on alma yeah uh give her
1:30:38
uh cats and cats whatever yeah yeah yeah that's good uh she gets advantage on dexterity checks any faster right and
1:30:44
you don't take as much damage from falling okay i i slowly reach my staff over and tap her with it as this expansive energy
1:30:52
kind of shocks into her and it's uh jump so you can now jump three times here
1:30:57
that's awesome yeah and i'm gonna also expand a key point and use um for as
1:31:03
long as possible um to kind of like when i get closer to it i'm going to use step of the wind so
1:31:08
okay so yeah you have advantage on dex checks and you don't take damage from falling 20 feet or less so you could literally
1:31:15
jump i'm gonna jump into that so what i'm gonna do is when i get closer to where we where we are i'm gonna take to
1:31:21
the roofs like closer to our hotel i'm gonna take to the roof and i'm gonna use um
1:31:26
um step of the wind to do a rooftop jump from to double my jump speed and then
1:31:32
triple it [Music] double it and then triple the doubled
1:31:38
jump i'm not i'm not even gonna make you make a check on this with all of the stuff that's cast on you you are
1:31:44
bounding over her heels are like burning with embers
1:31:49
all right oma you are just bounding over these these houses and houses and
1:31:55
your feet are barely touching the ground as you're as you're making your way through the city um and you
1:32:01
very quickly come across the inn that you guys were uh how are you getting it how am i getting in i'm gonna jump in to
1:32:08

1:32:14
exactly left i'm gonna get everything okay so um flynn's bag my bag and the sickle
1:32:20

1:32:25
going to give you a circle i'm going to get the fancy sickle okay you grab everything
1:32:30
why do you need the other sickle it's my circle yeah i don't it's two sickles it's not influenced back
1:32:36
oh would it fit in flint's back is
1:32:46
[Music]
1:32:52
i think at this point i would i imagine after like weeks of traveling i would know that there's a head in your bag um but in this moment yeah i'm only going
1:32:59
to put um i'm only going to put kellex stuff in it okay but i'm also going to grab that robe i'm
1:33:04
also going to grab that robe that i wore the bathrobe the bedroom
1:33:10
all right um so as alma is doing this um the rest of you guys are just sort of laying low on the outskirts of the city heading toward
1:33:17
let's head towards uh the teleportation store i'm sure that's where she's gonna be running to next xavier uh we've uh
1:33:23
allied ourselves with a a very powerful wizard named hayfried um
1:33:28
do they know each other they might know each other um so we're headed to the teleportation circle now it should be
1:33:33
safe when we get there um okay he has some sort of um i don't know chamber interdimensional
1:33:40
chamber that we can hide in for the time being perfect um let's do it a little flabbergasted by tito's last comment can
1:33:48
i is he in his right mind can i do i can i tell like what his mental state is um
1:33:53
actually as you look over at tito he's still like squirming around he's got this this brace over here he actually
1:33:59
has a dream rod yeah all right i didn't even i wasn't even ah
1:34:05
silly me and i'm gonna undo all the bout i'm gonna try to undo the bindings and you barely even finish getting the
1:34:13
bindings off as his wings spring out to full capacity he lifts
1:34:18
himself up over uh the top of you guys and into the air and just shoots directly straight up into the air
1:34:25
where are you where are you going and the rest of you just here
1:34:31
uh it does does it look like he's just going going gone or is he no he's just going straight up into the air he's not
1:34:37
going in any direction just straight up okay uh i guess i'll take off after him okay um and he's going full speed but
1:34:44
eventually you do catch up to him and you both sort of stop a couple hundred feet above the air
1:34:51
uh now in this sort of hovering uh state i'm like gonna check him out and be like
1:34:58
is this is he in his right mind is he still like make an inside chat rita's
1:35:03
insane how long he's been down there yeah yeah oh also while i'm running through i'm
1:35:09
using my extra perception to make sure i don't get caught hey there we go okay uh 21
1:35:14
um you look at tito and funny enough he kind of reminds you of
1:35:20
yourself when you first branched out from your tribe um
1:35:26
he seems a little bit strange um but those social quirks
1:35:33
are are things that you recognize um and that you had sort of learned to suppress
1:35:39
or or hide um for the most part uh over over the the time that you've taken in
1:35:45
the world of men and dwarves and elves um so that's mostly what it is it's like
1:35:51
it's ticks that you have overcome but that he's still got i'm gonna start to communicate in uh
1:35:58
just pure like the rn language and uh
1:36:04
body movements more bird-like movements uh in my communication style with tito
1:36:10
uh in an attempt to have me come across as a friend and ally
1:36:17
and also since he does not recognize me and i recognize him uh
1:36:26
i'm going to try to communicate like the tribal like this the the bodily motion
1:36:31
or movement that that would communicate that we are from the same place okay and um as soon as you start doing
1:36:37
this he sort of starts twitching and moving in a very similar fashion um to
1:36:43
you and and you can tell that there's a recognition there uh and then
1:36:48
remembering that we we have places to go we have places to be i'm gonna like motion for him to
1:36:55
just follow me and just trust me okay and as you move he moves with you great we're gonna go back down and as
1:37:02
you are heading back down what are the rest of you up to say timmy yeah i don't know about you but i think
1:37:08
maybe it's not the best idea for you to return to organspire ah
1:37:13
yeah so i need to get a new job yeah i you know
1:37:19
i had the same kind of thought thought along the same kind of lines um
1:37:25
how do you fancy yourself as a wizard's assistant
1:37:30
i don't i don't know if i'm smart enough i think you've got the gumption you know i i think uh i think heyford will like
1:37:37
the cut of your jib i mean honestly i'm out of work right now i would take anything well uh you
1:37:45
seem eager and is incapable so let's see what we can work out willing to learn i mean
1:37:51
i i'm out for it right we'll uh try to avoid cursed islands please
1:37:57
please all right no cursed island so uh i'll just walk up to friday um
1:38:06
well i guess we're all kind of wanted um [Music] what are you gonna do
1:38:12
am i still 13 feet tall you are uh just at this point shrinking back down to normal size
1:38:19
i'm gonna take in shrinking back to my normal size like well that was a fun adventure um
1:38:25
yes so well i guess i will be moving on from oak inspire a lot sooner than expected
1:38:31
um actually it is a very lovely season for fishing
1:38:38
uh i don't know how much you have then i've 40 gold here and i'm going to give all of it to your further
1:38:44
for trouble done there yeah [Music]
1:38:49
couldn't have done it without it you're right compliment from you i think i enjoy that
1:38:54
a lot more mere statement of fact don't get carried away and i clap him on the back and i almost
1:39:01
fall over well i don't know how fishing is out here but i'm sure you'll catch something
1:39:08
i wish i just had the fishing poles to give you because we aren't using them right now not yet no um
1:39:15
well i guess we'll tell hatred that you did a good job i appreciate that and also let that old
1:39:21
man know that i have some questions for him when i come back around i did say i was going to bring him some fish so i
1:39:27
have some questions yeah i have some questions as well uh
1:39:32
reach for my book and forget it's not there
1:39:37
how do you figure you're gonna sell fish and then open a tavern with that money
1:39:44
what's the plan tavern is a long-term goal the travel is the important thing
1:39:50
getting the stories getting the experiences [Music] it's a longer story than just a simple
1:39:57
tavern okay [Music] that i've gathered um
1:40:04
for what it's worth come on for me think if pace is your goal
1:40:11
you're not going to find it at the bottom of a coin purse
1:40:16
so just you know keep your eyes open
1:40:21
to what's around you and to the people in front of you i look at planet triad and
1:40:27
timmy [Music] if i've learned anything thus far it's
1:40:33
that they're the closest thing to peace that i've ever found
1:40:38
you've got a good group it's been a while since i've
1:40:43
spent time really with anyone else since well a while
1:40:49
hi i think we met some of your old friends and if those are your friends well
1:40:56
hate us your enemies hmm another story for another time
1:41:03
only we had all the time for all the stories hi
1:41:09
well uh i think this is a crossroads here if you want to go toward the water we're going inward
1:41:15
so then i will turn to xavier and say you know that little girl looks so much up to you
1:41:21
she has a lot to learn and i really hope that she finds the answers with you
1:41:27
[Music] and he nods his head and he says
1:41:33
[Music] i'm sure she will and i tap him on the shoulder with like
1:41:40
a nod and weave over to shrine everyone and do a very
1:41:46
fanciful bow and hike up my bag and
1:41:51
look up and enjoy clean air outside of openspire and start
1:41:58
heading towards the gulf of akkada all right
1:42:04
so as faraday walks off towards the gulf
1:42:10
and the rest of you meet up right back at the little shack that houses hayfreed's teleportation
