Hey guys, hi, happy Saturday. Welcome to the 40th episode of our stream here. You're crazy 40th episode. Season 2, episode 20. And I thought you guys were going to the Scalawag Strand, but I might be wrong.
Speaker 2I mean we can. I was just, you know.
Speaker 1I don't want to direct your gameplay here.
Speaker 2The only thing directing our gameplay is the fact that Riley has a goat head. It's true. We need to figure out a way to get Riley's goat head uncursed, I can't communicate. Would Riley roll with disadvantage on all verbal checks.
Speaker 1Can I?
Speaker 2write. I was a shrimp once.
Speaker 1You're like Mr Panda from Ranma Ranma one half.
Speaker 2Oh, Tommy Ranma.
Speaker 1I'm in hell. When we mispronounce things, people probably just assume that we're yeah, they don't know that.
Speaker 2We're just being goofy all the time, put the wrong emphasis on the wrong syllable I'll tell you one thing do you guys like Turnimator?
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Wow, I'm sorry, sorry, so stupid. All right, sorry, man, I destroyed your flow.
Speaker 1And yeah, I just lost my train of thought.
Speaker 2Oh boy, oh, he was derailed on the way to the station.
Speaker 1I was going to say. One thing that you would know as characters because you've been there, is that there's a place in Dunk called Katarina's Curses. It's a witch who sells curses as well as lifts them for a price.
Speaker 2I sell curses and curse accessories. I'll tell you what. Bobby looks like everything has come full circle. We're at the crack and we're about to head back to Dunkirk. That's really.
Speaker 1I mean, that's just an option.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's an option investigate otherwise maybe we can make up a rumor or something about there being, like, a cursing booth at crogland that's now defunct. Let me see, can I? No, I don't have any narrative skills like that. Shoot. Should have been a should have been a yeah, should have, could have, would have.
Speaker 1I mean, you could trade in your characters now and start from level one.
Speaker 2All right, yeah, that's the end of season two. No way, I mean, maybe maybe we can go to Marsh Gates, kind of a no-go. What about Do we think that there would be something down at the Scalawag Strand or like at Hornswoggle Port, or not so much Like Mucklin Harbor even?
Speaker 1Well, actually, technically, you do have to return to Marshgate.
Speaker 2The wagons that you borrowed. Oh right, oh right, okay, maybe we can go ask around, okay, at the very least. Yeah, now that riley has a goat head, I don't let her ride in the wagon, just like eating garbage. Pull it all right, I still have the body of a shroom though, so it's like yeah terrifying to watch.
Speaker 2Yeah, every time someone looks at you I charge them. So that'd be two kappa, two kappa. Okay, so anything else we have to do in the crack while we're here, we have, uh, successfully dealt with char the chicken foot witch. Um, we've given enough building supplies to finish the bridge. The golem has a home. Golem has a home. Yeah, um, does sven need anything from us to complete our business venture before the money just starts rolling in? Because that's always how that works.
Speaker 1Well, yeah, you guys got an account that I can forward the cash to.
Speaker 2We got saddlebags. What if we just why don't you? We'll have to open an account. Yeah, Sven, I can't speak. We'll have to open an account.
Speaker 1Yeah, Sven.
Speaker 2I can't speak. I forgot.
Speaker 1Oh yeah.
Speaker 2I look at Riley. I look at Riley and I say I think she wants to know where you got your hair done. I just like no, sven, do you yourself have a bank that you prefer to bank with? What is the preferred bank for the Mucklins?
Speaker 1I mean, I'm all dunk exclusively.
Speaker 2It makes sense. So the troll tellers, toll teller, troll.
Speaker 1But you know I don't use a bank myself.
Speaker 2Really you got a mattress or something. I was just about to say. He's got a big mattress, it's huge.
Speaker 1Yeah, it's just not practical for me. But you know, when you've got people who need their cuts and you're off gallivanting across the world, you know I have no idea where you're going to be. You know I could just keep your money and you come pick gallivanting across the world. You know I have no idea where you're going to be. You know I could just keep your money and you could come pick it up periodically.
Speaker 2I was going to say that would be good for now and then we'll come back Until I take the power that gives us a house.
Speaker 2Yes, and then we'll make our own bank and we'll let you know. No, that sounds fine If he could hold on to our money or earmark it in his books for us, and then we will come back periodically and or come back when we have set up an account for ourselves. The entirety of season three will be us trying to set up a bank account, filing the same kind of paperwork in dunk yeah, making like strategic decisions about where we can get the most yeah, yeah what's the, what's your apr?
Speaker 1yeah, uh, dunk bog counter.
Speaker 2Mucklin harbor is probably the best option for you no, all right to start the way to then to start a bank. I really didn't mean to start an account. Oh okay, there's no way you two could start a bank.
Speaker 1I really didn't mean to start a bank, an account. Oh okay, there's no way you two could start a bank.
Speaker 2Let me just he said Dunk, Bogtown, Marshgate, Muckland Harbor not Marshgate, okay. All right, so we'll start so we've invested in our future. Galen. All I hear is. I look quizzically at Riley and I scratch her head right behind the ears. She liked that when she was a shrimp anyways. So I'm gonna walk over to Zonan Bach and like write in his book like Riley's torture begins.
Speaker 2He says Zonan Bach and like write in his book, like Riley's Torture Begins. He says I think that is a good subheading for this, it's perfect, all right. Well then, let's head out to Marshgate.
Speaker 1All right, begin the journey. Here we go, y'all.
Speaker 2You want to roll, riley, I will roll.
Speaker 1Seven, seven, seven.
Speaker 2You say seven, seven, eleven, eleven.
Speaker 1Oh, I tell you, don't have my book open, which is a great start.
Speaker 2It's a dangerous encounter. You find 40 poultry geese. I just closed my book, which is great oh it's not, it's a bump in the road.
Speaker 1Oh, you stumble into goat eating.
Speaker 2amoebas the alien feels completely safe. All right Bump bump, bump, Adelphia. Thank you.
Speaker 1Inter-party conflict.
Speaker 2It's perfect, it is. I slap his hand away from him as he inter-party conflict.
Speaker 1It's perfect, it is.
Speaker 2I slap his hand away from him as he tries to scratch me again, like I'm a pussy oh, okay, sorry.
And then I go for like under the chin instead and like, I guess maybe it's just like Riley tries to bite my fingers and I'm like what. I just I don't know. I'm just gonna like silently throw my backpack on the ground and start kicking the wheels of the wagon. I I pick up the backpack and I haul riley over my shoulder and say it'll be okay, riley, we'll get this sorted out. We'll get this sorted out, it's fine. It's fine. You want, you want? I don't know. I got a. Can you want tin? Can I pick up the tin, can look at it like for just a moment and then hurl it as hard as I can into the, into the grass, just like oh, you could have recycled that, riley, that's like a copper. Say all right, I know I appreciate you taking one for the team, even though you can't talk to me. I appreciate you taking one for the team, even though you can't talk to me.
Speaker 1Riley is completely frustrated with her plight.
Speaker 2God no yeah, I know, are you there, zona? It's me, galen, I am right here, sorry, sorry, sorry, I was making a better there Zona, it's me Galen, I am right here, sorry, sorry. Sorry, I was making a better reference Zona sorry.
Speaker 1I've been with you for many seasons alright, I've moved us to.
Speaker 2does that satisfy your inner conflict needs, ben, or inner party conflict needs or do you want their bloodshed? I tried to throw away a ration conflict needs or do you want their bloodshed? I tried to throw away a ration, precious ration. Nothing tastes the same.
Speaker 1What is the end result of this?
Speaker 2I now feel more at ease with the chicken lizard. I now feel more at ease with the chicken lizard. And Are you BFFs?
Speaker 1with Claudia.
Speaker 2I storm off and just start eating grass. I would say that, oh my God, what's his name? Gabe? Comes over to you and like is marveling at you the entire time you're eating grass, and like it's it. The monk creature tries to like eat grass in the same way as you, but it just like splurges all over the place and doesn't do anything, and the fairy is just making a high-pitched tittering at that moment. Riley knows that, like her plight is not as awful as Gabe, yeah yeah so, ben, I don't know that we've actually given you any kind of closure.
Speaker 2We just keep narrating things that happen.
Speaker 1I just see the conflict perpetuating until we get to muckling barber or whatever I I don't know.
Speaker 2Do you think I wonder if this is galen? Galen may not be, may not be being sensitive enough for riley's current situation. Like it, it might feel like she might perceive him as me, like making too much light of it or like, um, you know, maybe not seeming concerned enough, but I think Galen's gotten to the point in their adventures where he's just like, yeah, we'll figure it out. He's supremely confident in their abilities. Um, I eat the tin can.
Speaker 1Yeah, I mean it doesn't have to be like some amazing revelation right, I need a oh no when we camp for the night.
Speaker 2I'll make some rolls because I think we won't quite get to Marshgate. We'll just be outside. Let me make another travel check. That's critical travel, pretty good guy.
Speaker 1Pretty good, you make a discovery. I'm going DZ. Baby, you should be a wizard.
Speaker 2One or 200, but I'm sorry 100.
Speaker 1100.
Speaker 2400. 97. Uh-oh, uh-oh.
Speaker 1I mean that uh-oh doesn't really.
Speaker 2Uh-oh. That's just like perpetual PC fear.
Speaker 1Yeah, it's like's, like the higher when it's a good thing it's everyone's teeth in their mouth move six inches to the right you come upon the bones of the largest warg that you've ever seen, Even larger than all ghosts the black mane. Oh my good lord, oh my lord, and it's like half buried in the dust. The skull kind of looks at you menacingly, although it's not alive, but there is a twinkle in its eye.
Speaker 2Interesting. I I'm going to regret this. I examine, Wait so, Ben, it's an old kill right or it died a long time ago.
Speaker 1Yeah, it looks like this is old.
Speaker 2Are there any distinguishing marks on its bones or anything like evidence of a fight or how it died, like things we might need to be worried about? Although it is, you know, it was a long time ago.
Speaker 1Yeah, I mean, you could check it out and look around.
Speaker 2I'll go inspect the. I'll tell Riley to stay back while I go check this out. I ignore him and go with him. Yeah, she charges headlong into, yeah, I had a feeling.
Speaker 1That's how it go. You see that, um, the twinkle in its eye is actually, uh, an arrow. Oh, interesting.
Speaker 2I hold up my shield and look around. I pull out the arrow. Does it look like it wasn't? I mean, is it an older looking arrow, like it could have been the kill shot?
Speaker 1I mean, this doesn't look old, it looks shiny and gourd Shiny and gourd. Gourd and gourd, shiny and gourd.
Speaker 2It's gourd not gourd. Got a little bit of mold, but it's fine, we'll wipe that away.
Speaker 1So you pluck out this golden arrow that looks well-preserved.
Speaker 2Nice arrow. It's a golden arrow. I tuck it behind riley's ear so you look beautiful. So, oddly enough, she does respond positively to this. All right, all right, cool, yeah, all right she's just like a stretch. Yeah.
Speaker 1The arrow might be worth something.
Speaker 2Yeah, worth something. The same way, the golden dagger that was definitely a murder weapon is worth something.
Speaker 1I forgot about the murder weapon.
Speaker 2Okay, cool Golden arrow, adding it to the list of stuff we got.
Speaker 1Galen, you can make a lore check on this arrow.
Speaker 2Would this be a Philo Sim?
Speaker 1situation.
Speaker 2They call him Philo. They call him Philo. If not Ben. I can certainly make the lore check. I don't want to like abuse it. How many times can we use him?
Speaker 1Once.
Speaker 2For sesh I make my own Hulory check, it's a nine oh um, so this is a magic arrow, oh sweet the magic arrow of BA Braccus and it is called true fire true fire.
Speaker 2So this probably was the implement that killed the gigantic dork, or dork dork. Gigantic dork is like a funny idea to me. Um, I, I tell Riley, like I say you know, riley, this is, this is some pretty good stuff. Maybe you can use it in your uh, your quick fire bow, or don't you have some kind of bow? I lost the bow, but I did have a boat for a long time. I say well, yeah, yeah, riley, have a boat. For a long time. I say well, yeah, yeah, riley, riley's our ranged person, so I will, I'll give it to her to have them to hold so what it does is you can fire it and it will automatically hit and apply and deal maximum dread.
Speaker 1Whoa, it's not a critical hit, though.
Speaker 2That's pretty sweet, though, and, ben, I assumed that, based on this situation, it can be retrieved at the end of combat each time.
Speaker 1I mean that would depend, Okay yeah.
Speaker 2If you fire it into A chasm, chasm yeah, a bomb chasm.
Speaker 1Okay, uh, you guys move two hexes closer to marsh gate um wait, james, you lost the.
Speaker 2What happened to the magnificent longbow? Uh, I think we traded it, or? Oh, okay, okay something happened to it. I just I remember I don't have it on my thing and I remember it being lost or gone.
Speaker 1Okay, gotcha, gotcha I have a sling though, which doesn't help, a sling key?
Speaker 2uh, all right, so we're gonna set up camp outside of marsh gate. We're quite there, yet. You can see it on the horizon, unless you feel like pressing on.
Speaker 1We could press on.
Speaker 2I think we could chill in. Marshgate for a minute. That's fine, ben. We could travel at night, was it risk exhaustion the next day?
Speaker 1No, the next travel check will be a disadvantage.
Speaker 2okay, up to you, riley, because it's uh your role. Uh, you know what? I'll just uh the junior travelers guild I was the chief travel smith. And uh, guild, I was the chief travel smith and six, it's not bad, a little bump. Oh, we're exhausted. Of course we are.
Speaker 1Yeah, well, we rolled the dice yeah.
Speaker 2It's a difficult path and we're all worn out. Oh, we make a vitality check, okay.
Speaker 1Those rules might've changed, sorry.
Speaker 2No, no, it's, it's in this version of the beta rule book. I'm going to make the vitality check to see if I'm exhausted. No, it's fine. Version of the beta rulebook. I'm going to make the vitality check to see if I'm exhausted. No, it's fine. So those rules have changed.
Speaker 1I'm checking with our edited document. I look at those so frequently that I don't always remember what's what.
Speaker 2I don't even know where I am anymore, but you can get the most recent updated version of the rulebook at drive3rpgcom it's free. Orlandabeamcom it's the Land of E and Beta RPG book bundle. It comes with the rulebook, the couple adventures, what else?
Speaker 1What else we?
Speaker 2got in there. Yeah, quick start guide Including both Riley and Galen's character sheets at level one.
Speaker 1What happens is you roll disadvantage to heal courage. What is your courage at?
Speaker 2Good question, I assume, since we're coming out of the crack, we didn't rest. That was foolish. I see I think Riley's at 12 out of 14. I'm at 15 out of 23. Oh, I am at 12. I have it written right in front of me All right, so you roll into Marshgate.
Speaker 1the Dead of Night what?
Speaker 2was the guy here? Was it in or? Something or something yeah, let's go into the end oh my gosh, I already see how this is going going to go down. No animals allowed.
Speaker 1I was thinking the same thing yeah. Yeah, she's got to sleep in the barn. I'm going to roll a random tavern just because we can.
Speaker 2Love it.
Speaker 1Bing owls, yurts and girts. That's it.
Speaker 2You roll into the sour skull. Sour skull, that's going to be a story.
Speaker 1A family place. Yeah that it's known for its huzzah tournaments.
Speaker 2That's awesome.
Speaker 1Could Riley play huzzah as a goat? I said no goats allowed, you gotta put that goat out.
Speaker 2No, no, no, no, no. All right, all right, all right, hear me out. Hear me out. She is more than 50% shrimp. Her goat head's only like 20% of her body. Ergo she is mostly shrimp.
Speaker 1I don't know how to respond to that.
Speaker 2I'm going to stand in a doorway and do a double take and then use old chums on the bar. Keep Once per session. You can make up an old friend that you've run into who can?
Speaker 1give you help or advice.
Speaker 2I love it. She's going to be be like. I recognize that body of a shrimp anyway I haven't thought that far ahead. I need some identifying it's gonna be like the way that you swivel your hips, or something dumb like that just, it's the sass I'll use a jack of all trades, um and uh jack of all trades for like a card cutting and I'll grab like a huzzah deck and I'll just like, do a crazy like magician.
Speaker 2Cut of the cards and blow it's like it's me riley. Oh my god, that's the springle shuffle. Hold, I have to roll charm. Hey, totally do it, and I would get advantage cutting the cards.
Speaker 1What would I roll for that Nimbleness? Yeah, yeah, oh snap. Totally do it. Yeah, yeah, oh, totally do it. Riley, you card sharp that's me.
Speaker 2Um, I'll like elbow Galen to explain that I've been cursed and like we're looking for a way to lift the curse, but we need to stay the night. We've been traveling all all day, all night, two hours later. So so you see, and then we get to the crack one hour later, um no, and that's how he got fangs yeah he's on inbox still going like. And then we met Gabe.
Speaker 1Yeah, I see.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's all here in this latest magazine of what is it called Dungeoneers.
Speaker 1Dungeoneer Magazine. Dungeoneer Magazine, yeah.
I'll say wait, have you been following a Dungeoneer Magazine 30 minutes later? Oh yeah, I've read all of them. I know all about you guys. The rest of the quest is just talking about all of our adventures with this guy.
Speaker 1What's this guy's?
Speaker 2name Steve. That's my favorite part, steve Harvey.
Speaker 1Wow, of course Riley, you can stay, but that blob of whatever it is in that chicken lizard I mean.
Speaker 2Oh, oh well, they can. They can stay outside with FB, my, my tortoise. Yeah, gabe, uh, innocuously, just suctions to the side of FB. Uh, on the shelf somewhere and falls asleep. Yeah.
Speaker 1His name is Pez tamir. What?
Speaker 2is that one word? Yeah, that's his first name oh pez tamir pez tamir ribaldo hey hey, you know someone named gail gail. She was a bog roll medicine maker. She was always sweating profusely.
Speaker 1Hey, you know someone named Gail Gail she was a bog roll medicine maker.
Speaker 2She was always sweating profusely.
Speaker 1Oh, rapaldo, we met her in a mansion Crazy Ernie's basement. Oh yeah, we rescued her. I know who you're talking about. That wasn't her real last name.
Speaker 2Oh, was it her married name.
Speaker 1She's somewhat of a grifter.
Speaker 2Gail Ribaldo is somewhat of a grifter. I'm genuinely surprised she seemed so scared and she was sweating so much.
Speaker 1Why do you think she was lost in crazy Ernie's mansion? I didn't go in there.
Speaker 2Didn't she tell us she was looking for some supplies for her medicine making ways or something? Now that I think about it, who goes there for medicine? Sick people? I'm updating Gail Re ribaldo's character entry. Yeah, this is interesting. She's like gonna be a season three villain. Yeah, I'm back to grift baby. Um, I tell pes to me. Well, hey, you know, thanks, buddy. Uh, thanks for taking us in. Uh, riley's just been kind of down.
Speaker 1Um, you know, maybe we can just get some good rest tonight look, I know this because you know, I had sort of a thing with her oh I shake my head she grifted your last name.
Speaker 2Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait with gail or riley, I don't even know. I don't know who he's talking about anymore. Gale, gale, that would become a bar fight, and then we get thrown out.
Speaker 1This guy is a shrimp, by the way.
Speaker 2Oh, okay, I say you had a thing with Gale.
Speaker 1I would have a thing with Riley. Is she available?
Speaker 2Let's just say she's not in her right headspace right now. I smash a bottle on the counter and hold up the broken glass. Oh I say, I think she likes you.
Speaker 1No, so you had a thing with gail yeah, I mean anything is strange how she stole my last name like it's not normal don't you guys get married, like you know she like, really liked me for a while and stole your last name, your identity I only knew her as gail oh, like, uh, like a mononym like it was a fling, and she took it way too far see it.
Speaker 2Uh, reminds me of someone that was in our party before. Was it mindy? No, who did I?
Speaker 1yeah, it was mindy.
Speaker 2No, no, no, no, no. Oh yeah, gail did get crazy, it's you man.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, I was like I had a relationship with zona and buck yes, zona, zona actually has to remind galen, because galen really didn't process it even in the moment. He was like whatever, why is she so here? We rescued her. Zona reminds uh, galen, he's like, yes, and then she fell madly in love with me to get back at you, but she rebuffed her. I say, uh, yeah, I guess that sounds familiar. I don't know, I really wasn't paying too much attention to her. Which one of you has the?
Speaker 1go-ahead again.
Speaker 2I raise my hand.
Speaker 1That was a joke.
Speaker 2I think he's saying I have a goat brain.
Speaker 1So, either way, we thank Pesimir for giving us lodging for the night for free. What?
Speaker 2no, this misunderstood this, uh I thought you guys were old friends. As I walk by directly to the stairs to get to our room, I'll just like thanks, man, that's really appreciated.
Speaker 1Yeah, yeah, hey, friends and family discounts copper okay oh, uh, hey, princess, funny bone.
Speaker 2Yeah, you haven't missed much. We left the crack, got to marsh gate and we're trying to fix riley's uh, goat head. Yeah, I got a goat head. Um, I was cursed by a chicken foot witch. Now we don't even really know where to go get uncursed, other than dunk. So we can probably ask this uh, which is way over here, dunkadelphia? Um, I say hey, hey, pesimir, you know we're, we're still trying to get riley. I mean, you know, get riley's head back on straight, if you know what I mean. Yeah, get any ideas where people go, if there is. Yeah, yeah, you heard any rumors about any places you can get a curse lifted.
Speaker 1Look, I mean you want some weird stuff, you go to beasel berth, otherwise, I mean you're really going out into the wilderness finding a witch and that seems like a bad idea.
Speaker 2Well, we know there's one due south of here but she does not like yeah, you could wander into the quagmash and see what happens. Beezleberf, you say Some weird stuff in Beezleberf, wild, weird stuff.
Speaker 1They got a witch market there.
Speaker 2Oh, the witch market of Beezleberf. I'm going to make a note of that. I say, yeah, actually that's not a bad idea. We could go drop by the spill again. Bad idea, we could go drop by the spill again. Well, we won't be having to go into the spill to avoid river watch guys this time. True, I say it would be a pleasure yeah, right, maybe we can catch a boat up river to Beasleberth. No, I don't know, that's just more money, we could probably just walk.
Speaker 2Don't we have a canoe. No, I think we got rid of the canoe Because one day we kind of tried to resolve the inventory situation a little bit, realize that it is not a good thing.
Speaker 1Also, it's not really conducive to having a giant tortoise. You know what I mean. I do.
Speaker 2We can hit the road and then we can cross that bridge.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Let's, yeah, we'll. We'll bed down for the night, ben one copper or two copper pouch.
Speaker 1Just one Okay.
Speaker 2Roll a D6. No whammy, no whammy6, no whammy, no whammy, no whammy four. Okay, I don't spend it. Um, and then, uh, is there any food here for us? Because I gotta feed. I gotta feed the firefly jar, I gotta feed the chicken lizard, I gotta feed myself and I gotta feed the firefly jar. I gotta feed the chicken lizard, I gotta feed myself and I gotta feed the goat.
Speaker 2I mean, there's food for you guys as part of your stay, but like okay animals let me, let me roll 2d6 and and I'll have, I'll feed the animals real quick. Uh, the lizard. Lizard eats the ration, as he always does, as he always does, and it's not even the chicken, it's just the lizard part in the back. Is that to break the ration in half and give a little to the chicken lizard?
Speaker 1just so the chicken can, like, experience the pleasure of eating.
Speaker 2Yeah, it doesn't actually need to yeah, um, all right, and then, uh, that should be it. That should be it for the night I'm going to recover. How many hit points Ben D with an N 10?
Speaker 1No.
Speaker 2D40?.
Speaker 1It's a D6. But you have disadvantage? Oh, because we're exhausted, I get three hit points back.
Speaker 2All right, you have disadvantage. Oh, because we're exhausted, I'm stuck, I get three hit points back.
Speaker 1All right, 18 out of 23. That's not bad. All right, all right. The next day rolls in, new day for adventure.
Speaker 2New day I say, hey, Pestamere, thanks for the roof over our head. If we see Gale, we won't tell her where you are.
Speaker 1Yeah, thanks, that would be very much appreciated.
Speaker 2I say, hey, I had one more question before we got out of here. What's up with the Sarah Skull deal? Where'd you get the name?
Speaker 1You know, it just randomly came to me.
Speaker 2On a lark. You know I have no emotional attachment to it whatsoever. I was hoping there was a cool story behind it, but yeah, I'm going to put it on the form. That's fine. It's alliteration. That's always a good thing, right? I wave and head out.
Speaker 1Yeah, you know, um, actually, you know it used to be because we had, you know, sour troll whiskey. Oh then, um, well, that went bad. How can you tell?
Speaker 2when snarled troll, whiskey goes bad and it's already. It's already sour, it was too sour.
Speaker 1Oh yeah, it was so sour, it puckled up your puckered up your skull yeah, so, um, that got a bad rap, so we we discontinued that and, uh, now we're just selling rascal cider can't go wrong with rascal cider you can?
Speaker 2I mean it goes down real nice, rascal cider you gotta make one of those promotional posters for rascal cider they just I mean, it hits you here and it hits you right here, wow right here, right, uh, thanks buddy, thanks buddy. Good luck, riley, you got it chief, I assume that means goodbye I just put my hand and wave like total disregarding, just like the streets. Ooh, that was not a good travel check.
Speaker 1Oh boy. Well, it's good, because I was going to throw something at you anyway when you walked out onto the streets of Marshgate. You still have to like return your stuff, the wagon, oh yeah, that's right, that's right. And you see, uh, your old friend weldar, the film log outrider oh man, maybe he won't recognize us.
Speaker 2I have my bulwark helmet on he's speaking with um taskmaster dundoon to whom we have to return our wagons. You just like run up and headbutt him. He wouldn't recognize me. You're not giving him enough credit here he was madly in love with Riley at a certain point or was it the other way around? Because of his coiffed hair, his chiseled jaw?
Speaker 1I do find him attractive it's really funny.
Speaker 2Galen, it's Thunder Blade actually.
Speaker 1What, what.
Speaker 2Oh man, what what? Oh man, yeah, I've been going by Thunderblade here and there. You know that's ridiculous on account of my. I pull out the axe blade where did you get that? The axe. A good friend gave it to me. I've seen that axe before. You have seen that axe before. It's none of your concern, though. We're here to return some wagons. Move aside.
Speaker 1Who is this? I like got some new friends.
Speaker 2I'm gonna like storm up to them and poke them. Oh, they're going to headbutt them.
Speaker 1Oh my god, is that Riley? I shrug, it's yeah.
Speaker 2I'm kind of embarrassed about it. I'm like I don't want them to see me like this.
Speaker 1Yeah, I would think you're very embarrassed.
Speaker 2Ben. I cheap shot him by activating Mighty Blow, activating the cut through metal thing and activating Feet of Strength. I just cut him in half. We spend the rest of our days in a dungeon. It'd be totally worth it.
Speaker 1Make a metal check at disadvantage.
Speaker 2Riley To not do that. Oh, riley, okay, no, no To not cut someone in half.
Speaker 1Metal, three Metal. Yeah, you turn bright red goats can't turn. I mean, somehow happens you blush, goat blushes um, that's the name of this episode.
The goat blushes. Well, dar looks at you. That's the name of this episode.
Speaker 1The goat blushing Well Dar looks at you and says what are you doing here?
Speaker 2I heard you got into a big mess with SPL, so it wasn't a mess at all. We did some business for them and our business is concluded. Speaking of which, I'd like to conclude my business with Taskmaster Dundoon, and you're still standing In my way.
Speaker 1Look, I don't want any fights around here, okay.
Speaker 2I don't either. I just want to Return your wagons and move on with our lives.
Speaker 1Alright, it's returned. Now I'm going to put my hand on, move on with our lives. All right, it's returned.
Speaker 2Now I'm going to put my hand on Galen, because I start to detect that that tone in his voice is right before he hulks out. Yeah, yeah yeah, now about the other side of the deal there you know you're under the bargain, Scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. Are we supposed to give him information? Was that what it was? Yes, we're going to give him some kind of information to help him advance himself right Into the crack. Find a stone, golem, give him info to divert DB's next shipment to.
Speaker 2Mucklin Harbor. Right, yes, the crack, find a stone. Golem Marsh came. Yeah, yeah, give him info to divert DB's next shipment to Mucklin Harbor. We have not gotten any info yet. Well, we know stuff that we didn't share. We know that, or did we share with him that she wants to cut down the horse? I don't, I don't believe so, but I don't know that that's going to be like info that's going to be super beneficial to him. Um, actually, yeah, maybe, maybe we can try to share that information with him. Ben, let me think we can tell him that, uh, about destina brink's plans and how he can help disrupt those plans by just continually diverting her wood, and that's going to decrease her standing and open her up. Maybe he can. Maybe he can start taking that wood and using it to his advantage in some way Sabotage Like yeah.
Speaker 2Like a lumber equipment like this also brings up something that happened uh, sarpathy attacked you right, right, that is true because, uh, bringing the sarpathy, we think are working together to this end, right I mean it's possible, you don't know we don't, we don't know, but it's not yeah. Yeah, there's definitely something going on.
Speaker 1We can share that.
Speaker 2Yeah, I think she's working with sarpathic. Yeah, we'll share information that's not substantiated and hope that hope it works out yeah, yeah, that's the basis of our entire operation Brink.
Speaker 1Sarpathy.
Speaker 2Yeah yeah, that's low even for an SPL employee. I mean there are lines that shouldn't be crossed in Sarpathy and Brink working together.
Speaker 1What do you think your phone is going to make them?
Speaker 2at.
Speaker 1Yeah, look, I mean this is all shocking to me because you know we talked and you said the best way to rise through the ranks is get on Wisinski's side. But you know I was under the impression that Brink was the up and comer going to rise to the top and I was going to side with her. So just saying I shouldn't.
Speaker 2That's right. Yeah, not if we have anything to do with it. She's going to be a down and goerer, not an up-and-comer. You know what I mean?
Speaker 1That was a stretch. Okay, that was really bad, galen.
Speaker 2I say I'm not very charming anymore, but I am pretty intimidating.
Speaker 1Neither is Riley. It's a pity. She used to be cute.
Speaker 2I headbutt him. Neither is Riley. It's a pity she used to be cute, I headbutt him and we run Later. Wildar, Get to it, Ow. I mean, you know you're going to treat her like a goat. You're going to get the horns okay, let's talk we just did no, no, over here.
Speaker 1Oh, okay, you're done with dundoon, right, we're done, oh yeah, we're done.
Speaker 2Sorry, is that welder talking to us? Yes they all sound the same to me, ben, I'm sorry well done, dune sounds.
Speaker 1Hey how you doing I?
Speaker 2I feel like that's and welder sounds how again it's just normal awesome.
Speaker 1I love it. I thought for once that I was doing two different voices.
Speaker 2It honestly kind of sounded the same, I think, because I hear the accent. The Dundun accent, like always, is just like I'm looking for it. So so, yeah, we're done with Dundun. And now Welder wants to talk to us. I say I don't know if I'm looking for it. Um. So so, yeah, we're done with Dundoon. And now, uh, welder wants to talk to us. I say I don't know if I have time for you, buddy boy.
Speaker 1Look um. Where'd you get that ax?
Speaker 2That's a film. I know Her name was Jailer the red ax. She fell in battle alongside of us, comrades at arms.
Speaker 1Doing what?
Speaker 2I loved her. You want you know what. I don't know why. Why am I even telling you this? What is it? What's it to you? Why do you care about what the Sarpathy and the other Felmog knights are doing? What's your goal here? What's?
Speaker 1your end game, welder. You're asking me why I care about anything. That's what's going on in the mucklins right.
Speaker 2But uh, hold on, there is something that's findings constant battle on mark wagon wasn't been like real quick. As an aside, wasn't jayla telling us that welder and the hammer like the black candle? Wasn't she saying that they were? They seek to control the sarpathy, instead of call them right, okay, all right. So then I'll say, uh, and he was asking me about what jaylen and I were doing, or an s we're doing. We were, I say we were. We were trying to take out the sarpathy at their, their, their core. We sought to infiltrate and exterminate from within and she fell to a hierophant I think that's what it was or a sargog.
Speaker 1I can't remember.
Speaker 2Or a sargog yeah, maybe a sargog, Something terrible and horrifying. Yeah one of those giant snake things.
Speaker 1I would suggest staying out of the Sarpathy conflict.
Speaker 2Yeah right, come on, they ate, our village Ate it. They didn't even burn it down, they just consumed it.
Speaker 1You're only meddling into affairs that just much too complicated for you.
Speaker 2So, welder, what I'm gathering from this is one of two things. By asking us to stay out of it, you either A care about us, which I doubt, or, b you're worried that we might screw up your plans, which I'm all about. So, uh, have a nice day he grabs you by the arm I cut his arm off.
Speaker 2listen, no, no, no, no, I, I will. I, uh, I feed of strength and rip my arm out of his grip and I want to like take his gauntlet with it. I just want to be like that robust, slap him with it like it's a glove, it's a ten.
Speaker 1I say don't ever touch me again hammer hammer as he's yelling I decaffeinate our butt, our butt.
Speaker 2Now, um uh yaki, slack starts playing and we jump on the turn, we jump on the tortoise and get out of here give me back my gauntlet. You haven't seen the last of us. I put on his gauntlet and right away uh make some sort of check here uh I already did, man, I already did how do I? I want to make I'll make a check to make a bunch of funny faces as we write off out of the time. You automatically succeed I just.
Speaker 2I want to taunt them. Yeah, I love it. Maybe I'll make a, a some kind of wilderness check to write out on the tortoise Ben. Like we all just jump onto FBs back and like get the heck out of Dodge.
Speaker 1I'll give you minus two. Cause all the creatures on it.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's fine, the menagerie of creatures that we have the menage. It's going to be a plus, it's going to be a flat, that's a nine, as if we had some sort of mental, know mental link. Fb comes busting through a fence, pulls in her legs and like drifts right onto the scene. We all leap onto her back, her legs pop back out again and start flintstones running and gets out of here you look back behind yourself and you don't see.
Speaker 1All you see is Welder on his horse, like go to the edge of town, but like he doesn't pursue you, maybe he's looking for the hammer maybe like a willow chase where, like we've, got yeah.
Speaker 2I love it I want to maybe in your future, but not now. I love it. I want to be in your future, but not now yeah. I imagine Riley is like bleeding expletives at them. All right, so we head out of town towards Beasle Perth. Yeah.
Speaker 1Do you need me to make a?
Speaker 2new travel check, ben, or do you want to use that four that I rolled earlier, or I guess it would actually be a three. I take it back that should be a plus two.
Speaker 1We'll use that, because that's wonderful.
Speaker 2It is wonderful.
Speaker 1Roll a D 100.
Speaker 2Dangerous encounters. Oh boy, 98. 97?, 98?
Speaker 1Just keeps getting worse 98, right Solid year.
Speaker 2Yeah, it's going gonna be 400, uh, bog rolls and a quartal um, all right you, uh, all right.
Speaker 1You wander into past a fence that you kind of disregard.
Speaker 2Mm-hmm.
Speaker 1And you see a sign that says unassailable co. Oh Trespassing, I say hey.
Speaker 2Rileyailable co like oh, trespassing. I say, hey Riley, look, these guys are trespassing. I tried to communicate to him, but that's not what that means. It means that we've trespassed. I don't understand what that means Exactly, I keep like for the next minute or two. I'm like I'm talking at Riley about, like it doesn't make any sense. So I.
Speaker 1Would you put a sign that tells people, can I?
Speaker 2scan the ground for like movie traps or like anything like that yeah, search check what is my search, a sort cheek searches plus two entities, five. A sword's cheek. Searches plus two Five you don't find anything, but you also don't set anything off.
Speaker 1Okay, that's great, that is great.
Speaker 2You see in the distance two, what looked to be dratch, um kind of mercenaries waving at you. Oh I say, uh, hey, look, look, I think is that lars? I already used my old chums. Oh, you did, shoot did. Shoot Okay, I could use a quest point. I don't know. It's such a good idea, though it's up to you Whatever you want to do. It's such a good idea. I will use a quest point. I have to roll a charm.
Speaker 1I do it.
Speaker 2Yes, I say hey, I do it. Yes, I say hey, hey, it's Lars.
Speaker 1What is your total? Nine yeah.
Speaker 2No, it's eight. I used a close point to make it nine. It's worth it. It's all worth it.
Speaker 1All of it. Yeah, you see Lars, and another dratch.
Speaker 2And uh, Whoa Thunderblade all of it.
Speaker 1Yeah, you see, you see lars and another dratch and uh, whoa thunderblade I I reach out and give him a hero tug guys. Dark phoenix I just do this what happened?
Speaker 2dark phoenix uh, we had a run-in with a chicken foot witch, but uh, you can start. You should, yeah, right I say, uh, you should see the other guy she's got chicken feet oh no, not goat feet no, not goat.
Speaker 1Yeah, no, I know the other dratch says you gotta turn back oh uh shoot.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, wait, wait, wait. Are you guys with unassailable co and you're trespassing on the land?
Speaker 1oh no, I, I got a new job, guys, it's the greatest thing I mean. I I was just walking through the used to be forest and, uh, you know, this guy over here said, hey, you look like a strong dratch. And I said, yeah, I'm a strong dratch, and uh, he is a strong dratch.
Speaker 2I tell the other guy got this job.
Speaker 1It's, yeah, it's pretty. I mean, you're the first problem we've encountered.
Speaker 2Oh, that's such a harsh word.
Speaker 1Problem.
Speaker 2Wait, are we not supposed to be here?
Speaker 1No, you're not Turn around.
Speaker 2Oh Well, we're just trying to get over to Beasleberth. What's the best way for us to get around this place, to get there?
Speaker 1Go back.
Speaker 2This way there go back. This way. He's suggesting that you go back, which would cost you like an entire leg. Uh, or how about this? I say what did you say to me? And I intimidate him. I I'm gonna commanding presence. I say, uh, seven, I mean it could be worse. I say I'm thunder blade um commanding presence uh well, yes, it's success means that the npc will be respectful and amenable, perhaps begrudgingly so.
Speaker 1Depending on their character, goons will keep their distance or flee from combat okay, I think you know the combination of that plus lars like these guys are my friends, you know. You just want to pass, be cool, be cool, uh the dratch. The other dratch says uh, all right, fine, just uh.
Speaker 2Yeah, sorry, just go I say lars, lars, uh, that armor looks really good on you, man, I'm glad you found something, oh yeah yeah, I'm glad you found something to make you your life complete, I wish you the best. Honestly, I nailed the interview because of this armor no, no, no, no, it was within you the whole time. The armor, I mean, I don't know what that means. We right away. Thanks guys, thanks guys. Bye Lars, that was awesome.
Speaker 1First of all, so you ride through what is kind of off-limits, unassailable co territory.
Speaker 2Note to self Some sort of unassailable co facilities here. Yeah, 2915, right.
Speaker 1You see the facility. Eventually. It looks like a couple stone compounds that are probably just mostly entrances for underground facilities.
Speaker 2That underground facilities. That's cool, interesting. I hate to say it, but this is information we could sell to SPL or we could do a heist. We could tell Okay, first off, we could do a heist, second off. This is more information. If we have to come back to Dundoon for any reason, we could give them that information we haven't had a lot of dealings with unassailable code yet. Yeah, season 3. Unassailable Riley and Galen.
Speaker 1Now remember Vera the math magician was unassailable code.
Speaker 2Oh, that's right.
Speaker 1She's been ousted from our state.
Speaker 2She's probably not a fan of us. I have a soft spot for Vera. I don't know she might not hate us.
Speaker 1Okay, he's real playing poker there.
Okay, all right, he's real playing poker there. Okay, I don't know where you get that idea from, I'm told by Flush whatever you say, optimistic PC optimistic pc, spoken like a true gm.
Speaker 2Uh, roll a perception check. Oh, uh, four. Uh, you don't see anything. Nothing's there at all, nothing. No, you don't notice one thing at all. He loves you. Yeah, um, it's good to know. 29, 15's. Uh got a thing. So, uh, riley, do you want to make the next uh leg of our travel check? Yes, ben, during. Actually, maybe I'll wait until we camp uh yeah, it's pretty bumpy, pretty bumpy road these days.
Speaker 1Pretty bumpy road, pretty bumpy road.
Speaker 2Better than dangerous encounters. Uh-oh another inter-party conflict. Galen has fallen asleep on top of FB and we're veering off course.
Speaker 1Begin scene. We're veering, off course.
Speaker 2Begin scene um let's see, there's like weld our stuff, maybe I don't know yeah, it's like hard to do interparty conflict when you're a goat. Yeah, I'll say uh, okay, yeah, how about that? Uh, galen wakes with a start and he says, uh, oh, riley, yeah, man, I hate that guy. I can't believe you used to like him. It's the first thing out of his mouth.
Speaker 1He's like on that again.
Speaker 2As I'm banging at him, I'll like have Zoni and Bach flip through the book, like go back to things in our history, Like first encounter with Weldemar or something like that, Like just to refresh like what's going on. And like in the notes it'll say, like the handsome and brave Weldemar was connected with whatever. Blah, blah, blah. And I'll point to like the instance where Veldamar Veldar well, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1Veldamar is like a canon Felmog character that's hilarious.
Speaker 2I did not. I just had no idea that was a thing, or?
Speaker 1is it a vampire?
Speaker 2that might be a vampire, veldamar the vampire, I don't remember, but now that you say it. Or is it a vampire that might be a vampire, veldemar the Vampire, I don't remember, but now that you say it, there's just too many characters and too many names. I can't do that.
Speaker 1What was I?
Speaker 2saying Sorry, it's fine. I'll point to some part of our history where Galen and Vdar got along when they connected to do something, and that he can't be all bad is what I'm trying to communicate. That's so funny because I was looking back at my personal story from when we've done the character building stuff and one of the lines that sticks out to me is that Riley might think there is still some good left in Weldar. Yeah, and I was about to bring that up. Yeah, I was about to bring that up. Um, yeah, I was gonna say you can't still be on about him being good. Look, they're trying to. They're trying to wrangle the sarpathy.
Speaker 2Um, I'm gonna take out my, my like crafting tools and like show the hammer and like point the hammer, to try to communicate to him that like, maybe the hammer is the one that's, like you know, leading him astray. In a rare moment of clarity, galen actually understands what she's getting at and he says you think he, you think he's really kind of just fallen under the the, the spell of the hammer. That's like super, the clarity is insane. And Riley's like, oh my gosh, she totally gets me. But then she notices a spider underneath his foot. She smashes it with the hammer and he's like yeah, oh my god, yeah, no, it couldn't have been that. No, that's crazy. Weldar's his own man. You just wanted me to use the hammer to get that's nice conflict, just like situational comedy but yeah, I run to my strengths.
Speaker 2Yeah, um you get an xp for for breaking something and it's my foot. Yeah, I love it. Um, uh, I think that. So, so what I can add to what I will add to my personal story, is that, um, riley has begun to kind of like convince Galen that they're the the hammer. Might be the one kind of influencing yeah, um, cool, uh, and maybe he, maybe galen, remembers like a lot of memories of when they were all growing up that you know, like he and weld are used to used to sword fight and like, like with real swords and like you know, um, they were, they were almost friends to a point with friendly rivals maybe, um, so I like it that that was a good conflict. I'm going to move us one, two towards the bridge and, um, the day, yeah, I think I will galen will spend the night kind of examining the felmog gauntlet that he stole from wilder. Was there anything um notable about it?
Speaker 2um wait welder or well well, more welder, welder, welder. Oh my god, my brain. Oh yeah, I was. I didn't, I had a feeling it wouldn't be, it would a gauntlet, um yeah, it's, it's a black gauntlet.
Speaker 1Um, what can I say about it?
Speaker 2Provides plus one block.
Speaker 1Well, no, what like piecemeal armor does is like it just provides, you know, like a narrative benefit.
Speaker 2I already have so many narrative benefits for this thing, like I have ideas because I now have the non, like the black gauntlet of a fel, and I think that in the future we might be able to use it to our advantage yeah, and beyond what I guess what I was trying to say it can provide certain mechanical benefits, like if it makes sense like yeah, if acid drips on your hand or something you're wearing a
Speaker 2gauntlet, then it wouldn't harm you yeah, like you could use it to slide down a rope without getting rope burns or something right, okay, cool, I like it. I like having this piece of armor. I find that more fun than like mechanical benefits. Yeah same, uh, put that in my armor section.
Speaker 1I have a shield, I have a hobbuck yeah, I can't get over like one inventory slot for the common uh, yeah, inventory.
Speaker 2Keep saying that word. All right, I gotta resolve the inventory again. Yeah, actually anti-muckman slam throw is gone. Now that thing broke or it's out of juice, uh, it's a bunch of dust it's. Yeah, actually I'm not too far over. It's just the components that become an issue. I might not even be over. I gotta review this. Um, okay, cool, so that would be something I can do off stream. Um, we settle in for the night yeah how much time do you guys have to stream today, are we?
Speaker 1on. Uh, I've got time. I was thinking, maybe get to Beelzebub.
Speaker 2Okay, cool For the season cliffhanger that will be resolved next week. Okay, yeah, I don't know if there's going to be a great ending to this. That's fine. That's fine, we'll make it work, can?
Speaker 1Riley cook Do you have food. I have rations still. One salted meat I have six rations and a Nacadonkey.
Speaker 2That's funny. You can use a ration. Yeah, I'll use a ration.
Speaker 1It's a d6, but but you one so I mean, yeah, like the idea behind cooking was that you're cooking.
Speaker 2I know, oh, I know I always forget this.
Speaker 1It's supposed to be like you're cooking food, not like cooking rations, because those are just rations.
Speaker 2Yeah, I have something Can I hunt real quick.
Speaker 1Yeah, that's still a thing we can do.
Speaker 2At the end of the day at least, I'll just, yeah, see if I can wrestle up some onegalope or something. Oh nice, oh wow, I am a hunter. So apparently there's this. I'm sure you guys might have seen it online, but there's like a joke on Twitter or Reddit or Tumblr or whatever about like this kid in high school who was named Hunter, but he was a vegan, so everyone called him Gatherer.
Speaker 1wow, like always comes to mind when I hear the word yeah anyway, uh, yeah, so that means that you get enough food for a day and, uh, you can choose a critter component from the used to be forest I need to find the Ben.
Speaker 2Do you know what page? Oh, there we go, 58, I think, 87. 87. I always screw it up because what you roll and then what you find are two sections which we will correct in that it's all playtesting baby. No 87 is different in my version of the book, which we will correct in that it's all playtesting baby. No 87 is different in my version of the book. It is like Sonia, the brilliant amp construction worker. It's like the names table.
Speaker 1Where are we at?
Speaker 2History.
Speaker 1Forest. Yeah, I mean, you got a bandy clamp. Pearl singe viper venom. I mean I'll just show it on screen.
Speaker 2That's crazy. I get to choose.
Speaker 1Choose me From.
Speaker 2USB Forest. I feel like it used to be tiger. Bones would be good. I don't remember what those are for, though I'm just going to take them. I'm taking them. Cool Lian Li them, cool, lian Li, cool, cool. It used to be a tiger and now it's just bones.
Speaker 1All right, you get those bones. You get that meat Used to be tiger meat. You just killed the used to be tiger. Yeah, it's the last used to be tiger. Yeah, it's the last used to be tiger.
Speaker 2Are the used to be tigers, aren't they? Are they rare? Did I just kill an endangered animal? That's terrible that's, I guess, yeah yeah, I guessed it, you killed the danger. Galen feels nothing Except for a full belly. Yeah, I give the meat to Riley to cook and I say I think he whipped something up with this. Yeah, no problem. Not to mention, I can make some out of those bones, right? Galen just stares at riley not understanding anything. I forgot that I can't speak it's.
Speaker 2I'm sorry, yeah uh, I say, riley, I really don't know if you should just chew on the bones. Uh, I, as I finished ladling, they used to be tigers too, and ignore. I'll put everything put it in the bowls and we each get four, four croche Amazing.
Speaker 1The night passes without incident and you wake up the next morn on the banks of the Black Reel. You are just a day away from Beezleberth.
Speaker 2Just a day away.
Speaker 1Did I roll.
Speaker 2I think I rolled out of Marshgate, you rolled this one, so this one's me.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Come on, god. You know what. I'm just going to use a quest point and bump that.
Speaker 1Getting confident that you won't need it Cool.
Speaker 2No, no, I just honestly the Conductive.
Speaker 1GM so many bumps in the road I'm more worried about, honestly like GM.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, I'm more worried about losing stuff to continue bumps in the road than you can search for something.
Speaker 1Components of what not. Do it Only Galen.
Speaker 2I'm going to search for elemental components. Wilderness check that's a 10. Nice Juggernaut chip. He's a 10 on the elemental compos list.
Speaker 1So yeah, could roll it, Roll d12.
Speaker 2Nine.
Speaker 1Goblin Alloy.
Speaker 2Goblin Alloy. Oh, I have. Now we have two of those Interesting I got it.
Speaker 1Put them in the Roger cube and see what happens. Yeah, you have quite a treasure there.
Speaker 2Oh, we can make bog roll bone armor with the used to be tiger bones. That's cool.
Speaker 1You cross the bridge where you encountered the river watch last time.
Speaker 2I look into the water and pray that there will be a way to anti-curse myself and be suburb.
You look at yourself. It's barely visible, like your reflection in the black water. I'm crying, but ghosts don't have tear ducts. I don't know if that's true. You're just silently screaming like a goat yeah, oh, my god.
Speaker 2Oh, my God, oh, that's dark, that's really, really good.

Speaker 2Oh, I believe it's pronounced Fleabag, fleabag.
Speaker 1Like yeah, but yeah, a mechanical sputterfish attached to a wooden placard is floating in the water singing happy happy day day. Come along in the water singing happy happy day day, come along and play happy, happy day.
Speaker 2Day what? The heck so I jump up like a really excited dog and I scramble to the shore trying to get it, trying to pull it in. Galen just wades into the water and gets it and then brings it back to Riley. It's deep, it's like in the middle of the black rill. Galen just wades into the water and gets it and then brings it back to Riley.
Speaker 1It's deep, it's like in the middle of the black rill Can we fish for it. Let's chill. It's the perfect thing to fish for.
Speaker 2It's the fish. I don't have a pole, I have string. Um, do you have a hook? I could, um, let me sorry, I'm gonna use an ability I'm sure I can. I could tinker something together. Yeah, wait, the tortoise can just bring you out to it that's crazy is that a thing, ben?
Speaker 1well, it's like a. It's like a rushing river oh, russian river got it, it's.
Speaker 2It's not just like a placid it's not like plastic it's even funnier if we don't get it, george, just like passes on the river. Happy, happy day. Here here here, I'm going to spy, I'm going to just turn your eyes.
Speaker 1Oh, it's a four I don't do it.
Speaker 2That's a failure with a plus. I mean, the plus is that maybe we get a little like maybe it's hung up on something and we have a little extra time to plan to get to it it's hung up on something, but it's to get water rock yeah. Flips over and you just hear it underwater.
Speaker 1Then it gets swallowed by a giant fish. Yeah.
Speaker 2Which does a jump out of the water and swims away with. It's like the crocodile in Hook with his claw on his stomach.
Speaker 1Yeah, and then every five years we'll roll that encounter.
Speaker 2Yeah, the giant fish. Every time it gets eaten by a bigger fish, the pitch gets lower and lower.
Speaker 1Yeah, so you want it to jump in, or?
Speaker 2I'm not going to risk it.
Speaker 1Put together a pull, a shift pull.
Speaker 2Yeah, that I could do. I could use the string. My halberd Riley uses her flight potion I already used it. Unfortunately, I don't have any materials left, I only have components. I think I've given you all the materials I'm out Ben ben have.
Speaker 2We can decide a system where why you can convert components into materials um no okay, we, we should, though I think that's a good idea, especially with, like finding tons of mundane items, like melting down the middle and all that would be really helpful. Yeah, um, oh. What about pocket hang glider? I do have a pocket hang glider. I can use the feat of strength and, like throw you and then you'll just be like in the middle of the river and you'll die just a drowning goat.
Speaker 1I mean you could like yeah, I know, um.
Speaker 2No, I think there's a way for you to um I mean I'm confident that I could like maybe get a last one yeah, I'm gonna tinker together like a like one of those um for catching dogs, things with the string Catching hot dogs to make dog water tea, Uh 10. Uh 10 for crafting tinker taylor why do you have um advantage? Oh, interesting uh he's a junior fisherman high school program. Well, I have advantage in woodcraft and mechanics.
Speaker 1Okay, I guess woodcraft.
Speaker 2I would craft too, if I could.
Speaker 1I would chuck wood If it would chuck.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1Okay, cool.
Speaker 2And Galen, do you want to try to grab it with like athletics or something?
Speaker 1yeah, I, I athlete well, it would be wilderness, I think, is the fishing I, I wild works.
Speaker 2uh, eight, I could give you a quest point. Okay, I think I still have a quest point to use.
Speaker 1If I can't speak.
Speaker 2can I still pep talk? Maybe give me like a, Alright, I roll it. Yeah, get it.
Speaker 1I love it. It's like minus oh no, wait, hold on.
Speaker 2Are you going to use the quest point to give me a quest point? No, I do it. It's over six.
Speaker 1For a second.
Speaker 2I was plus zero in Spire, but I'm plus two and I instantly give you a quest point. I don't use it, I just say thanks.
Speaker 1Oh cool.
Speaker 2Thanks, cool. No, I bump it to a niner.
Speaker 1All right Fish like I've never fished before. Fish out this singing sputter fish. Before Fish out this singing sputter fish. Just as you pull it out of the water you see the head of a brang saber fish going. Oh my god.
Speaker 2I'm gonna run up to Galen and hold him by the back of the belt while he's trying to fish for the fish.
Speaker 1That was just a detail, you got it.
Speaker 2You got the fish. You snatched it out of the jaws of the brain-saber fish.
Speaker 1So you pull it to the shore and it's just like flapping. Happy, happy day-day Happy happy day-day.
Speaker 2I'm going to take a moment with it, just like this is a surprise, and then immediately mount it on the shell of the tortoise.
Speaker 1Oh, my God.
Speaker 2Just hang it up like a painting. The tortoise like looks back while it's chewing some grass and then just closes its eyes. He doesn't see, he doesn't even see the perceptible which I can see. The tortoise like starts to like nod its head with him yeah, just like a gentle, like um, it says.
The placard says um have a happy happy day from professor. Have a happy happy day from Professor Para Pendle. It's amazing oh happiest.
Speaker 2Yeah, it just cracks me up, wow, wow, wow, wow, it just cracks me up, wow, wow, wow.

Speaker 2Yeah, and that's you know what?
Speaker 1That's the perfect way to end season two. Well, you're just, it's not. That was the end of.
Speaker 2Was that the end?
Speaker 1No, it's not, it's not. Oh, that that was the end of. Was that the end?
Speaker 2No, there's another check, that was no, that was Okay, I let us out, and then Riley, and then this, and then that was Riley. So that brings us.
Speaker 1Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to draw you, you uh you enter. Beezleberf, you've never been here before the Beezle Beezleberf is a dusty town famous for its spectacular, bizarre and just a huge population of shrimp inventors. This is kind of like the mecca of sputtercraft and all the cutting edge shrimp technology in the world.
Speaker 2Hmm.

Speaker 1All right, you mosey on through. You also pass the Tinker Street, which has a bunch of you can already see it on the street sputter creatures and just has buildings actually not just tents. They've got big old chimneys with smoke come out of them.
Speaker 2I turn to Riley and I say Riley, why do you think they call them buildings and not built? They're already built.
Speaker 1Gallagher humor is great. I smash a watermelon over alen's unconscious for the rest of the adventure um, you pass into the witch market, which is completely covered by uh tents and drapes and awnings.
Speaker 2All of the above.
Speaker 1Any synonym you can think of.
Speaker 2Witch mist, witch's breath kind of permeates the bottom six inches of the market. It's kind of like fogging your feet.
Speaker 1Yeah, there's a lot of incense and weird smells Sand witch Wow, that's a lot of incense and weird smells.
Speaker 2Sandwich Wow, that's a good idea. They have this dusty topping. That's coarse. You hate it. It gets everywhere.
Speaker 1Sand sandwich. Okay. So it's really dark in here because it's all covered in shade and whatnot.
Speaker 2Oh God, what if we run into Shade Wand? I don't think she'd be here, right, she'd totally be here.
Speaker 1What do you want to do here?
Speaker 2Well, I'm just going to go to the first person up the street that I see I just point to my head, to the first person up the street that I see that I might be, which just point to my head, yeah.
Speaker 1You approach a kobold warlock and he's sitting there with a ton of herbs just like hanging and laid out and just like. Baa Baa. Hmm, interesting, he examines your teeth. Good gums, how much.
Speaker 2I push his hand away and pick up a stick and like, point to my head like he's like oh, it does magic, it taps its head. It's a performing goat, trim. Uh, galen doesn't step in, he just like watches because he knows riley, her independence, he doesn't want to step on her toes.
Speaker 1Would you like to be my familiar?
Speaker 2Is that I'll be like no, no, like not at all. I'll be like I'll point to my head and then, like I'll point to like the first shrimp that I see on the street, like my head, the shrimp, and I'll throw like gold coins on the ground, like drop gold coins on the ground, like drop gold coins, money, money, like tell me how to fix this.
Speaker 1Make a charm check.
Speaker 2Oh yeah, the kobold actually thinks that he wants the other shrimp's head, so he immediately swaps their heads.
Six Success with a twist. Oh, you want to turn back. Yes, I'll take the gold Done, come with me.
Speaker 2I'll gesture to Galen to come this way.
Speaker 1I walk this way.
Speaker 2Because we're going into a warlock's house. I don't want to be prejudiced, but it's freaking me out a little bit.
Speaker 1He takes you on a winding journey through the aisles of the witch market and, like, by the time you stop, you have no idea how you got there. It's just like it's like comic-con, in terms of oh lord, it's packed with all these hot, sweaty bodies like beazle. Birth is the san diego convention center.
Speaker 2It's like you're just in the fee at san diego convention center just like you're just in the sea at san diego just like you're waiting to fart after yeah, we're in hall h right now and like it's miserable um you're like standing there waiting in line for something and um, you could have sworn.
Speaker 1there was like a tall man standing next to you, like while you're waiting there, and then, like one moment, you look back and it's just, it's all you see is a large radish on the ground.
Speaker 2Oh, I pick it up and I shake it. I say, hey, riley, you think we can cook this for dinner? No, no, I'll take the radish from him and like, hold the radish, like not knowing who to hand it to her. I just assume she wants to save it for later. So I pull out my knapsack and I say I can carry it, it's fine, that'll make a good stew all right, you're up, you're up.
Speaker 1Yeah, talk, talk to this lady, thanks, oh, I just for you. He walks, oh man, oh yeah, that's the twist. I I will step in this time so riley doesn't have to like I'll say um, yeah, that was a rough twist I say money, that's everything I have I say uh, greetings, good witch.
Speaker 2Uh, to whom do I have the pleasure of speaking? My name is riley, my name is galen and this is riley, uh, my first well-cursed friend I am malva.
Speaker 1Welcome to malva's cauldron I'm sweaty, yeah, I say you faced goblin, just like her eyes are like back and forth holding her hands. You see a three-faced goblin, just like her eyes are just sinking off of her eyeballs. Yeah, I'll say yeah man.
Speaker 2I think she needs to get some sleep.
Speaker 1We can make her sleep.
Speaker 2Oh, my god, I say. Well, we desperately want to turn her back into the Shrimp that she once was, undo the curse. She doesn't like the goat head Transmogrification. Yeah, some chara the chicken foot Witch put this curse on her.
Speaker 1Oh, oh, she's A nasty one.
Speaker 2I see you know of her.
Speaker 1I've heard things, not good things. I see, nope, she's a little vain, if you ask me.
Speaker 2Yeah, don't mention her chicken feet.
Speaker 1Oh, the veins in those things.
Speaker 2Veiny chicken feet. Oh God, so cartilaginous and the veins in those things, veiny chicken feet.
Speaker 1So cartilaginous.
Speaker 2Malva looks you up and down and kind of pokes and prods you. Oh, stop it. Her, not me.
Speaker 1Not you, her, not me. Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, I just assumed you were like a boggart or something you're talking about. Okay, yeah yeah, yeah uh well, let's see how much you got. We have enough to turn her back. Okay, you got two pouches of gold coins yes, yes, we have two pouches of gold coins. Well, hopefully that'll do the trick.
Speaker 2Hopefully I look at him like Just shuddering with fear, holding that guy. But it's a rubbish. No, I take a bite of the rubbish.
Speaker 1No, you know these things are always imprecise, especially when you're dealing With someone else's magic.
Speaker 2Mmm, yes, I understand. Galen resists the urge to threaten. Her Thunderblade stays locked away.
Speaker 1All right, drink this and this. Do five jumping jacks.
Speaker 2Should she spin Five jumping jacks? I do it, I drink it, and drink it and do the Jumber Jucks. Really enthusiastic it doesn't matter how stupid. I look Now from outside the tent, you hear him.
Speaker 1Now flip her up on her head, do a handstand.
Speaker 2I help Riley, I hold her by the ankles.
Speaker 1Alright, make a vitality check, riley. I hold her by the ankles. Alright, make a vitality check, riley.
Speaker 2Wait, wait, wait. Let me give you a bonus at least. Okay, make an inspiration. Check on a six plus. You're going to get plus two. To this I say alright, riley, I don't even know what you're doing, but you can do it. Thirteen Plus two Okay, I'm plus three then, okay, perfect, thirteen, yes.
Speaker 1Your head returns to normal.
Speaker 2In fact, any blemishes you once had are now fixed. Oh my gosh, I look better than ever.
Speaker 1When you get back on your feet, you immediately projectile vomit like a can and like a ton of grass galen looks around.
Speaker 2He's like I thought you didn't want to eat that, can?
Speaker 1I'm covered in it and I'll be galen I'm back and hug him, and then we'll pinhole on that.
Speaker 2That's so great. Classic Season 40.
Speaker 1You know what I mean.
Speaker 2Ben, do I just spend the two patches of gold, or do they get decreased to silver?
Speaker 1Yeah, roll them both.
Speaker 2You roll a D, what? Oh they just no. Doesn't it just decrease?
Speaker 1No, oh yeah, I roll a D8. Roll to see if they're all expended. You rolled a D10.
Speaker 2D10. Okay, two D10. One of them is expended entirely and the other one becomes a silver. Got it? Thank you. Well, next season we'll open a bank account Right Next season we have cash flow. We're small business owners, minority stakeholders. We're going to start our own corporation cool 40 sessions under our belt.
Speaker 140, it's a lot of sessions 4D.
Speaker 2It's a lot of sessions do some XP real quick.
Speaker 1Yeah, I'd say, you completed your objective to cure Riley.
Speaker 2Cool, Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool cool.
Speaker 1Did you solve a problem creatively?
Speaker 2Yes, I think so.

Speaker 1Encounter a new location. Beeselberf, yeah, beeselberf, encounter a new creature.
Speaker 2The Brang.
Speaker 1Saberfish.
Speaker 2Encounter. It really Used to be Tiger. I guess I killed.
Speaker 1I guess I killed offscreen, I don't know.
Speaker 2That's an XP right.
Speaker 1I'm going to say no.
Speaker 2I used to be Tiger, though I killed off screen.
Speaker 1That's classic.
Speaker 2It's pretty on brand for me to try to get xp for that um encounter with an npc, your old pal welder yeah, that was, that was telling uh, and I'm gonna roll the name of that cartoonist.
Speaker 1His name is uh.
Speaker 2Benny, brian, those copies of Wow, what? What did you say? Brian park, brian park? I don't know the reference. It's it's a joke about when Ben and I, um, we went to a uh after party thing. Uh um, when we got there, it was like invite only. And when we got there the name tags were all wrong and it was like James Park and I was Brian Costa, yeah.
Speaker 2Brian Costa could have been like a person the room was filled with like other, like real authors and artists and stuff, and like when we get there it's like just like, oh Just, our names are wrong. Oh my gosh, it's funny. I felt like an imposter Imposter. It's really funny.
Speaker 1I would say you guys had like role-playing xp, you know with your relationship yeah, I added a couple.
Speaker 2I added a line about welder and uh, mostly all due to interparty conflicts a lot of interparty conflict this time around yeah, so that is five xp plus.
Speaker 1I don't know if any of you did your ideals and flaws.
Speaker 2I don't think so. I did not this game. Did not.
Speaker 1I did not. I have exactly 42 XP.
Speaker 2Amazing, I will be spending it before we begin next 42.
Speaker 142. What level are you?
Speaker 2I am seven.
Speaker 1So you could become eight.
Speaker 2Yeah, how many do I need to become nine, 45. I still have a ways to go. I need 10 more XP, so maybe two more sessions at best.
Speaker 1Cool a way to. I need 10 more XP, so maybe two more sessions at best.
Speaker 2Cool, awesome all right gentlemen well, that was really fun today, yeah, very, very fun. It's a good way to end out the season. We resolved a couple things and have some new plot threads and kind of our back on the Serpathy train with our run in with Weldar Gotta sail down the Black Krill again or explore the rest of next season in Beelzebuff, or we could go down to Bogtown and then go to Orchstuy and visit, oh my god, sklunch, sklunch and Elberry Berritryson, elberry barryson, and we still have a standing lunch date with p middy, wap diddle.
Speaker 2yeah, no no, was that? Was it wap diddle ikabod lundy? He's at the last tree right. Yes, that's where we're having lunch. You know you did promise him a dried heart that you never Well, yeah, we have to go all the way up to Was it somewhere in River Country, I think so. I don't remember exactly, but that sounds right.
Speaker 1I'll just let you know that that's probably too late.
Speaker 2You're too late. Well, but we sent the liberator out there. I mean it could be defending it, could be like this crazy trench warfare, firing seed cannons it's oncoming spl. You know like it could. It could be not too late, ben. I'm just saying you have the. It could be not too late, but I'm just saying you have the power to make it not too late.
Speaker 1Actually, you have the power.
Speaker 2I mean, we're in the witches. Oh well, maybe we can. Okay, all right, all right, real quick, real quick, before we end, is it possible that somewhere in this witch's market.
Speaker 1There is a real life, live dryad who is captured. Dryads are huge. Yeah, they're huge.
Speaker 2Oh, I just imagine them as like tiny wood nymphs.
Speaker 1They're like gigantic.
Speaker 2In the land of Eme, the land of Eme, dryads are giant avatars of wilderness, the airbenders.
Speaker 1okay, um, so they're the size of liberator, or bigger.
Speaker 2Oh wow, that's crazy. Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 1So you're saying there's a chance I'm saying that if, if that whole like story matters to you, you could like do something about it. But if you don't do anything about it, then it's, it's going to timely fashion yeah. Progress to some other state.
Speaker 2Nevada.
Speaker 1On that note, we'll be releasing Nevada On that note Las Vegas, Nevada, We'll be releasing a sandbox, yeah 2021. Land of EME, Las Vegas.
Speaker 2Yeah, that's already sort of crock land.
Speaker 1Yeah, wow.
Speaker 2It exists.
Speaker 1All right. Thanks, princess Funnybone, for hanging out and you know. Thanks to everyone on Patreon for supporting us.
