Speaker 1Alright, get out of here, get out of here.
Speaker 2If I ever see you around, you're dead hey no threats in here.
Speaker 1My best friend's a bounty hunter, that's right. What did this guy look like?
Speaker 2He was a skinny little boggart.
Speaker 1Looked like a punker wow, from the 80s, he just had like spikes and studs and yeah yeah, he had. Like he had rickety stitch pins all over his his jacket, wow he had street cred up in beasleberf. He's a fan, like some personal content. Yeah, I say well, uh, I don't know what that was all about. Yeah, man, I mean like I kind of remember that guy, but uh, you know, a lot's been going on, supposed to get that show tonight. Do all boggers look this? I can't tell them apart.
Speaker 2Hooch, you finally remember that? Uh, that guy was Coming out of the building where Cat Jeebles was being arrested.
Speaker 1Yeah, because she's the one that broke in on the mayor. That's what I was thinking. Can I run after him? Let's see if we can bounty hunt him down. He shoots me with a crossbow. Oh my god, Find the doctor. I'm going to chase him down the street and grab him and be like catch evils. Now I remember. Sorry, man.
Speaker 2It was a long night. Make a search check though, Alright.
Speaker 1I do it.
Speaker 2Alright, you see him going down an alley down the street.
Speaker 1Chase after him. And no, I won't do that just yet, not going to use my powers, yet I'm going to rely upon my skills. I'm going to chase him back and be like hey, you know, I remember you, I just didn't want to, you know, make a big scene in there. Cat Jeebles, she got arrested.
Speaker 2He has a knife in his hand and he says listen, man, I risked a lot coming out here.
Speaker 1I know we're safe in this alley, I promise. Yeah, that's why we chased you out here at catch up.
Speaker 2All right. What is it you want to talk about?
Speaker 1Why I heard she got pinched. Like why'd she get pinched?
Speaker 2That's it. That's what you want to know. Yeah, you're going to give me some info.
Speaker 1Maybe I can. We've been in the Copper Hat headquarters.
Speaker 2We got it. Yeah, we've seen things man. Yeah, where's she being kept? We ain't seen that man In there Inside of there.
Speaker 1Can I give him a detailed layout of the thing and point him to where the cells probably are? Um maybe one of the maybe I can do like a some kind of like memory check, uh perception.
Speaker 2What do you think ben um?
Speaker 1maybe like a lore, or yeah, okay, okay, I'll say, uh, this is, this is how I remember the layout of the copper hat place was I mean the cells are back here. Seven I mean the cells are back here.
Speaker 2Seven All right.
Speaker 1It's like a simplistic map, but you've got the general direction. It's just a box with cells at one side.
Speaker 2Okay, are there a lot of guards in there?
Speaker 1I say there are guards here and here. Can I see if I actually remember, if it was guards, like another check.
Speaker 2No, I mean, you're Okay.
Speaker 1I say there is like at least two to five guys like right here, and then the bullpen's right over here. There's a lot of them too. Alright Well what do you want to know from me? We want to know why she got pinched. Why'd they?
Speaker 2come for her. She was breaking into the mayor's, so she's the one. What was she?
Speaker 1after, though, what was she trying to get from the mayor's house? Who put her up to it?
Speaker 2Yeah, I won't put Kat up to anything. She's the boss of the gutter mouse.
Speaker 1Yeah, but there must have been something besides street cred that she wanted from the mayor's house.
Speaker 2Well, the mayor, you know, with their new town watch program, you know what I mean. She's kind of ruffling a lot of feathers. She wanted to scare her.
Speaker 1That's all. Did she scare her life? She stole some stuff, anything valuable.
Speaker 2There's a bunch of chaskies.
Speaker 1I didn't get to see it.
Speaker 2You didn't get to see the haul. She doesn't share Papers, whatever.
Speaker 1Boring stuff Papers. Yeah, that is pretty boring.
Speaker 2So I can understand why she wouldn't want to share that stuff with you guys.
Speaker 1I can't even read, so you know. She probably just stashed it back at the hideout somewhere. That's my guess. Maybe there's some coupons in there Coupons.
Speaker 2Coupons you know for like uh Nork's Noodles or something.
Speaker 1Yeah, I mean that'd be kind of worth it. Plus, you wouldn't miss those right who would miss some coupons?
Speaker 2You got a point. I'm hungry, you buying. Well, coupons buying, let's do it.
Speaker 1I'm gonna put my hand up to give him a high five. Got a bogo. I hide the gold pouch. He high fives.
Speaker 2You Got a bogo, I hide the gold pouch. He high fives you. He says you guys looking to join up?
Speaker 1Yeah, maybe let's discuss it over some eats. We're not affiliated with anybody. None of your business. None of your business, gang.
Speaker 2None yet.
Speaker 1Alright well show us the ropes while we're having our Norse noodles. Let's go grab those coupons. Uh huh, alright, alright. I'm going to whisper to George as we're going through the streets like make sure you grab the papers when we find the coupons. You know what I'm saying? Okay, because I'm the one with the state fingers.
Speaker 2Yeah, definitely it'll work out really well you know distractions tube sticks.
Speaker 1Yeah, I'm going to try out some music on him.
Speaker 2All right. So he leads you back to the place where Cat Jeebles got arrested.
Speaker 1It's like a flop house. My body is my body. My body is my body. I'm little too big for my body.
Speaker 2You think the Copperhats are still Casing the joint?
Speaker 1Maybe, maybe Do they know who you are Of course. Maybe we should go in, then you could keep an eye out.
Speaker 2They don't know who you are, nah maybe we should go in, then you could keep an eye out. They don't know who you are. Nah, you said you've been there. They might know who I am, you were in disguise.
Speaker 1I wasn't in disguise, you were sort of in disguise, I was posing as a new recruit.
Speaker 2Infiltration. What happened to your butt, by the way?
Speaker 1Whose butt? Whose butt, my butt, your butt.
Speaker 2Where'd the feathers go?
Speaker 1Why are you looking at my butt? Hey, my eyes are up here, my eyes are up here. See, that's not appropriate man. Don't go looking at another guy's butt.
Speaker 2All right. Well, you look like a plucked chicken.
Speaker 1I feel like a plucked chicken. They whooped me good, they definitely remember me. All right, I'll go. I'll go. Nobody remembers me. I'm like a shadow, I'm a ghost.
Speaker 2Okay, all right, make a sneak check as you enter the building. Make'm a ghost. Okay, Alright, make a sneak check as you enter the building.
Speaker 1Make a sneak check. Alright here we go, y'all Bam.
That's a nine Alright. Alright, you creep in. You see some shadows, Dark shadows in some of the rooms. No, but no one shadows dark shadows in some of the rooms, Um, but no one notices you as you head deeper inside and there's some stairs that go up. You remember that, um, this guy and cat or this guy jumped out of a window like second story window.
Speaker 1All right, I'm going to see if I can't track to that window and look under the mattress or something for a mustache.
Speaker 2Alright, yeah, you make it up to the next floor. There are a few rooms that you can search through. Make a search check.
Speaker 1All right.
Speaker 2That is an eight, okay, okay. You search around these rooms, looking under the mattress in one of them, and you do find like a. It's like a, you know 401k A hole. Like a folio. Yeah, you find a hole under the mattress, all right. With a whole bunch of stuff in there, nice.
Speaker 1I'm going to roll a perception check to like determine if there's a trap in there or something. Just to be safe. Just like rip your arm off. It's like just a hole with a bear trap in it or whatever. Yeah, oh sure, all right, it's clean. Hole with a bear trap in it or whatever. Sure it's clean, totally safe. You've actually made a trap by searching it. Yeah, that's how an unprompted roll should work.
Speaker 2It's just yep, there's a trap in there. Yep, yeah, uh, uh, yeah. When you reach your hand in you, um, grab ow uh, basically a scroll case at first and there's some other goodies down there, but your hand gets caught in a snap trap. Oh no.
Speaker 1I am going to try to wriggle out of it.
Speaker 2First you take five dread.
Speaker 1Oh, Hooch is just unconscious now.
Speaker 2Someone appears behind you and says what are you doing?
Speaker 1Would you come over here and help me? I gotta get this stuff out of here. Jeebles is gonna be pissed Make a trickery check. Alright, I'm gonna use fibbing and get advantage on this once for quest. Can you use Fibonacci sequence?
Speaker 2I'm gonna give you a minus one because your hand is in a trap. Alright, alright.
Speaker 1Which agrees plus two, seven, that's a seven.
Speaker 2Right, success with a twist. The guy says so she sent two of us.
Speaker 1Huh, two of us what are you getting at?
Speaker 2I'm here for the goods too. Oh, oh, I think I say this I'm here for the goods too. Oh, oh, I think I. They said three of us.
Speaker 1They said three of us. No, I'm gonna say, oh, I get it. She must want to split the loot.
Speaker 2Split it.
Speaker 1Yeah, hide it in two different locations so they can't find the whole stash. She told me she wanted me to come because no one would recognize me. I already got the scroll, but I'm stuck in the trap. Help me get out of it. There's more loot down there. What are you a rookie? No, I just. She didn't tell me about the trap. It's not entirely true. I just I slipped. Okay, I made a mistake. What?
Speaker 2do you want to do? Oh man, that's on you real bad. Huh, it's on me real bad.
Speaker 1Don't you tell nobody.
Speaker 2Alright, he's going to try to.
Speaker 1Um, try to. Oh crap, I'm stuck too. It's like really awkward. You guys are basically holding hands at this point, and not so easy, is it yeah.
Speaker 2All right, well, we can get out of this. We can get out of this. Just don't panic.
Speaker 1It's like we'll bend ourselves into pretzels, Like all right, you put your foot on my shoulder, I'll use the leverage to push to squeeze out. Maybe we can pull one of these planks up. Can I narrate this?
Speaker 2You'll have to sneak in to be here.
Speaker 1It's going to be bad. I'll see how it plays out. Jeez, I don't have anything. Wait, wait, wait, um, jeez, I don't have anything. A little bit weird, all right, there's gotta be a way for us I'm gonna sneak in. I cause a commotion in the front.
Speaker 2You are stopped by. You walk in and immediately you see like two Sort of beggars Off in some rooms.
Speaker 1They're squatting.
Speaker 2They take off their disguises and their copper hats and they say we gotcha.
Speaker 1I say hey guys, it's Jonas, You're gonna blow my cover. You're gonna blow my cover.
Speaker 2It's Jonas.
Speaker 1You're gonna be a rookie cop rat and then I'll narrate. I'll narrate it and then I'll say and then who are? Brendo turned around and showed them his torn up backside and they immediately recognized him that's amazing.
Speaker 2Alright, roll it up, man.
Speaker 1Come on, you got that one out of your system. Bernard guides your hand. Nope, nope.
Speaker 2Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1This is horrible. I start to run.
Speaker 2One calamity.
Speaker 1I start to run.
Speaker 2I think well, I mean using your power.
Speaker 1Yeah.
Speaker 2Is that a one?
Speaker 1That's a one. That's a one. Wait, it's a one plus. No, no, no, no, no, no. Sorry, it's a one plus it's a three. It's a three, it's a three. Okay, that's not catastrophic.
Speaker 2A failure with a plus If it was a one, I would say you were just like instantly apprehended and they're taking you downtown, instantly incinerated. But yeah, you have a chance to run.
Speaker 1Okay, yeah, I look back and I see that they don't recognize me, and me showing them my backside only pisses them off more so I start to bolt out the door and then I'll try to blend into the crowd all right, um, why don't you make a roll for that? Uh, probably a sneak, and I have proficiency, so it'd be yeah okay, um, I have proficiency, so i'll'll roll twice. All right, there we go. There are the good rolls. There we go, maybe a 10.
Speaker 2All right, you run into the streets, into a crowd of people and you're playing it cool. You can still hear them pushing people Out of the way. Criminal Pardon me, excuse me pushing people and like out of the way. Pardon me, excuse me, um, back in the flop house, all right, just shimmy up over here.
Speaker 1If you can get your hand, um, can I do, I'm going to. Can I do a tinker? Check to see if I can't like find like some sort of like pin or or like disengaging thing and then slingshot it. Check to see if I can't find some sort of pin or disengaging thing and then slingshot it. Actually, I only have one hand to slingshot, so I need this guy to hold.
Speaker 2Use your foot.
Speaker 1I'm going to have the guy hold the slingshot and maybe I could do it at a disadvantage like a minus, because we both have only one hand. All right, let me first. Let me do Tinker first. That's a four. Probably should have looked at my Tinker. I forgot that I wasn't.
Speaker 2Riley? Yeah, you're not Riley. I don't know how this is going to go.
Speaker 1I'm going to do Tinker, I don't know, just down there.
Speaker 2Okay, failure with a plus. What do you think that means?
Speaker 1You shoot this guy in the head.
Speaker 2I'm going to shoot it.
Speaker 1I still have a chance to actually hit it. I just can't see it. It's like disadvantage or something. Like minus three, Like it exists but it's hard to hit yeah.
Speaker 2I'll just go disadvantage.
Speaker 1Okay, okay, that's good 11.
Speaker 2All right, you guys are both knocked back by the Force.
Speaker 1All right, I'm going to tell the guy like all right, this never happened. No one has to know. This is embarrassing for both of us. I'll see you around.
Speaker 2Wait, wait, we got gotta divvy up the goods.
Speaker 1Okay, alright cool, I'll grab the scroll and something else, Like I grab the scroll first and then I'll grab something else Leave him all the jewels or something.
Speaker 2No, no, no, we gotta Rochambeau for first pick.
Speaker 1Just kick him in the nuts. Okay, let's rush in Bo, and then, if it doesn't work, I'm gonna do something.
Speaker 2Alright, let's go. Alright, here we go. Are we going on three or One?
Speaker 1two. One, two shoot. One, two, three shoot Okay, Alright. One, two, three shoot Okay, all right. One, two, three shoot.

Speaker 2All right, you win.
Speaker 1Norc's Noodles coupons for me. You don't take the scroll, you just take the coupon. Oh my God, I'll take the scroll. I want the scroll and the. You know, we'll see, I grab the scroll. Whatever else doesn't matter, you take it all.
Speaker 2This guy grabs what looks to be some like badges Ooh, like copper hat badges, some official government badges or something.
Speaker 1Oh, interesting.
Speaker 2That would have been great to take, but you see the coupons still there.
Speaker 1Okay, grab the coupons, just so we don't screw up the relationship with the other guy. Yeah, then this guy takes the three bags of platinum.
Speaker 2Oh, yeah, four bags of ancient coins. Oh my god, your choices are weird, I gotta say. But more power to you. I guess you know something I don't.
Speaker 1Yeah, we do, I'm not there.
Speaker 2What are you talking?
Speaker 1about.
Speaker 2I don't know why didn't you take the money Uh?
Speaker 1I use ruffian and try to knock him out. I got nothing. I use ruffian. I mean, you have no concept of money. Oh, I fail, I fail. Not a good day for rolls no, it's not.
Speaker 2What are you doing what you had a fly on you? I'm sorry it was. No, it's not. What are you doing what you had a fly on?
Speaker 1you. I'm sorry it was. I used disappearing act immediately after.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, you're like about to be in a conflict, yeah.
Speaker 1I'm going to try to disappear, oh please, oh my gosh Six.
Speaker 2All right, but do do it. Success with a twist. You either got to keep the scroll or the coupons because you kind of jumped back real quick and dropped something. I keep the scroll.
Speaker 1I keep the scroll. Too bad, I keep the scroll and I hope that the guy watched Brendo get chased down the street by Copperhats. He did. That is my only hope.
Speaker 2All right, make it out of the building Completely hidden. Just fast forward. You guys can meet up.
Speaker 1Oh man, what happened to your arm? Oh, nothing, was it those bite marks Bit by a rat Bit?
Speaker 2by a rat.
Speaker 1It happens there's rats everywhere and I couldn't get the coupons. Some guy lifted them before we could grab one. What the heck? Some guy? There was another guy there. Yeah, I think he was messing with Cat Gibles. My guess is he was stealing from her man. What do you think of that low life? Who would do that? Who would steal from catchy? I don't know I'm not lying to george. I'm lying to the other guy. I think he's lying to me.
No, yeah, I'll tell george the truth after we're out of here yeah hey, um, I forgot that other guy was still here oh the, the other guy split. Oh yeah, so you're just lying to me at this point, yeah hey, sorry it was a rat that I continue to lie about, but I'm going to be like hey, come on, let's go check out this scroll. This is what Cat Cheebles was after. Should we bring it to Underbrink? We can just look at it ourselves. I mean, we're going to totally take a peek. Do we know how to read?
Speaker 2Yeah, I mean as a bard.
Speaker 1You know you really can read sheet music. No, yeah, we check out the scroll.
Speaker 2All right, it looks to be actually some tricky toe stuff Interesting.
Speaker 1From the desk of the tricky toe gang it's from.
Speaker 2It's like evidence that uh, the mayor had oh god oh, like stealing evidence interesting.
Speaker 1We should take this to underbrink.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah in fact, uh, yeah, yeah, in fact it's. It talks about the tricky toe bosses.
Speaker 1Like it gives an entire. It's like an org chart. It shows us, like, who's in charge of what section. Yeah, we could bring this just back to the mayor too, or no? Yeah, under brink in the mayor are tight, so we bring it to her'll be fine. Yeah, um, and then. And then you do you tell, yeah, we can, so let's, yeah, let's go back to um cider house rules. Wow, and all right, I uh hook up with Underbrink.
Speaker 2Actually, hooch, make a lore check when you bring it back to Underbrink. She is actually having trouble reading all of it. Not completely. It's written in Thieves' Cant. I rolled a nine so I of it. I completely. It's written in thieves Can't.
Speaker 1I rolled a nine, so I do it. She doesn't trust any of your translation. I am eating Nork's noodles as I read it, cause I stopped for some on the way back. Cause I got hungry for him, I spill some on the paper.
Speaker 2Yeah, so it it's. It talks about the uh controversial history of like who is the true leader of the tricky toe gang, and there are three main candidates. Um one is hard, twin beard. They say he has a hideout in quagmash somewhere.
Speaker 1Um hard twin beard, harn Twinbeard, they say he has a hideout in Quagmash somewhere, harn Twinbeard.
Speaker 2The other is Terry Quickfeet Allgood. His location is unknown, but Chumbray really wants him found.
Speaker 1Interesting. And the last guy.
Speaker 2The last guy is Dwag Old man Chumbray. They say that he lives in Bogtown. Very few people within the organization have seen him and his location has been crossed out.
Speaker 1Yeah because we got a lead on Dwag Chumbray. That's why we were kind of like heading towards Grunknug interesting. So he wants probably to take out terry quick feet, all good, harn twinbeard long name is pretty far away, terry.
Speaker 2All good, we're just quick feet quick feet, feet.
Speaker 1And Harn is way out in Quagmash probably riding out the storm. I mean he could, I mean I guess the Quagmash could just be like a hex outside or something. He's somewhere out here. He's in Orchstuy with Elberry Berryton.
Speaker 2He's in Orchstuy with Elberry Berryton to really figure out where these things actually are.
Speaker 1Yeah, can we ask Underbrink about what she knows about Terry Allgood?
Speaker 2Ah, yes, mr Allgood, let, yes, mr Allgood, let me consult my notes.
Speaker 1Okay, terry, with a P yeah Parks like pterodactyl.
Speaker 2All I know is that he's enemy number one. He's basically the only thing standing between Dwag taking over the Tricky Toe gang as the undisputed leader Got it. You know some say that he all good started the gang and they were a bit less cutthroat in the old days Sort of a rift between them and how they handle their practices.
Speaker 1Got it. What about? Yeah, I was going to ask yeah, same thing.
Speaker 2Harn Twinbeard.
Speaker 1Oh, it's not Twingbeard. Twingbeard is pretty good, though.
Speaker 2He is a Dwerg.
Speaker 1Oh man, is it Dwerg, dwerg, exa.
Speaker 2Chumbray sort of forced him out. He's got some loyalists.
Speaker 1But he fled Twerg loyalists, I see.
Speaker 2Fled somewhere in the Quagmash. No one's been able to find him.
Speaker 1Interesting he might be anti. He could maybe give us some weaknesses for old man Chumbray that we could. If we could find another one of those guys, maybe we could learn some stuff, yeah.
Speaker 2I have no idea where Chumbray resides, but everyone says he's actually in Bogtown.
Speaker 1Got it. Maybe one of the hideouts for the Turkey Tail Gang or something Like a safe house or something. I turn to Underbrink, and I say so. Who said there were a bunch of badges?
Speaker 2there too, badges, I don't know like of badges, there too Badges.
Speaker 1I don't know like official badges or something.
Speaker 2We don't need no stinking badges. I was just waiting for them to come up. Yeah, yeah, that's why I brought it back up again actually. I wanted to give Ben the opportunity Um yes the mayor, uh she um.
Speaker 1She's a badge collector.
Speaker 2She is a badge collector, just to uh, to get through certain areas of Old Town.
Speaker 1Yeah, the guttermouths had a few badges, but I don't know what they were for. I see.
Speaker 2That's not great if they're able to infiltrate Magistrate Hall. What's?

When they walk in they all have like all of them are like color, yeah, making their clamboyant uh-huh um ben.
Speaker 1Can I do good news to make a positive fact about a place or thing, the place being this concert hall? Sure I want to say that the acoustics of the concert hall are, like, particularly well suited to welkin tones. That's why my mom loves singing here, so I'll get maybe like a bonus on my my barding. Uh, realms check. Let's make some good news happen realms is plus one. I gotta pump these stats. Ooh six.
Speaker 2Okay, okay.

Speaker 1Hmm, people hate welkins, just flat out.
Speaker 2Wow Well, I'll just keep that in my back pocket.
Speaker 1Yeah, maybe keep it in your back pocket. I don't know, maybe it increases the critical failure range, but I get a bonus. Does that make sense?
Speaker 2I'm going to make it something more narrative. You don't know about. I love it.

Speaker 1I'm going to sidle up to him and be like I know everything.
Speaker 2Keep it down, your cover's blown he looks at you and shakes his head. It's a fin folk. What are you talking about? Get away from me. Look, we can do this the easy way, or we can do this the fun way.
Speaker 1What are you talking about? Get away from me. Look, we can do this the easy way or we can do this the fun way. The fun way I'll crack my knuckles and try to intimidate. I like that mushroom men have knuckles. I have them to zero intimidate. Yes, oh, come on Seven.
Speaker 2I'll take it.
Speaker 1Yes, oh, come on Seven, I'll take it.

Speaker 2Wow, what does snitch do?
Speaker 1Oh no, it's my flaw, I'm snitching on somebody.
Speaker 2oh okay, that's cool all right, everyone uh goes into a panic and then you see that, uh, this guy is is with another person they've got bombs strapped to their chests. Oh my god, they're gonna blow up the speakeasy uh, he's with a big bugbear and they, they go for the door to run away.
Speaker 1yeah, um, I'm going to use, uh, I'm going to use, a quest point and use Slingshot to like bam and then, like, hit the latch to lock the door, like the little thing to lock it, so that they have to unlock it before they can run out.
Speaker 2All right.
Speaker 1I fail. My total is three.
Speaker 2My little silver bullet just pings off the back of the helmet of Cade Caterat and he turns three with a vengeance well, it's a failure with a plus, so you'd actually I'll say it actually just grazes one of them. Alright, anything else, rendo, do you want to do something?
Speaker 1still going over my notes for my song, thinking how I can improve it. I didn't even notice what's going on. I guess I could try to tackle the small guy. Is that a thing you think I can make my way over and do?
Speaker 2You'll have to make an athletics check.
Speaker 1I mean I'll give it a shot. I think that's the only thing I could think to do right now. Minus one, that's a seven. Okay, maybe I injure both of us in the process.
Speaker 2Say, you tackle him, but you injure yourself.
Speaker 1Okay.
Speaker 2You take one dread as you hit the ground, the bugbear gets through the door and you've got the fin folk on the ground with Brendo Cade. Cateran gets up and he's in the mix. Now, say Cade. The bug gets up, he's in the mix. Now Say Cade the bugbear.
Speaker 1Because we're friends, we want to be so bad. He's so cool.
Speaker 2He's still not in the best position. He's behind you, guys.
Speaker 1He just steps on us to get through Hooch.
Speaker 2What do you want to do now? Bug bear is out the door.
Speaker 1I'm going to give chase. I'm going to try to chase the bug bear with a full run.
Speaker 2Alright.
Speaker 1Make a nimbleness check.
Speaker 2I do it nice, he. He actually toss, tosses a barrel down the stairs and you're able to like, leap over it.
Speaker 1It immediately goes into like 8-bit pixel graphics and it's just Hoots jumping over barrels like very Donkey Kong style.
Speaker 2You're able to catch up to him, the barrel crashes into Cade Cataran.
Speaker 1It does nothing, he just splinters on him and he keeps moving. Let's see. Should I use another quest point and try to knock him out?
Speaker 2Well, he's not unsuspecting, oh right.
Speaker 1Should I try to? Is he a goon, you think? Should I try to turn him? Yeah, he's not unsuspecting. Oh right, Should I try to. Is he a goon, you think? Should I try to turn him? Yeah, he could be a goon, Gus.
Speaker 2He's not a goon. Oh jeez, I'll tell you what. George, you want to take an action.
Speaker 1I'm going to try to man catch her in conflict mode. Okay, can my action be to get the rest of the crowd to pin this guy? I'm going to try to man catch her in conflict mode. Okay, is is. Can I my action be to get the rest of the crowd to like pin this guy so I can go help hooch?
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 1All right, I like whip them into a fervor. I say we don't, we don't want bardic music to end, keep this guy here. And they immediately start to like lynch him or something, and it's terrible and I run away. No they, I. So I, after they've kind of subdued him, I run out the door and I try, and I catch up to hooch.
Speaker 2All right. Why don't you make an inspire check?
Speaker 1Okay, inspiration, inspiration, my inspiration. So it's an eight. I will actually just use a quest point to bump that to a nine.
Speaker 2Do you have plus two inspire?
Speaker 1I do have plus two. I do have plus two, yes, sorry.
Speaker 2All right, yeah, a bunch of bards come and say, no, music must live forever.

Speaker 2I'll head up. All right, the bugbear is going to attack. Actually, let's just say this is a new round, start from the top. You're face-to-face with the bugbear hooch. You could try to parlay, you could do an action or you could go to combat. I'm going to try to parlay.
Speaker 1Nice and say, hey, I can make this worth your while if you didn't see nothing.
Speaker 2All right, what are you going to make?

Speaker 2I mean they've in to intimidate me before, but nothing like this, hmm this is real low, even for norks well, how'd they even find out about?
Speaker 1it is the real question.
Speaker 2Delora, the blue looks at you and says that is a good question. Have you guys been loose loose with your lips?
Speaker 1I don't think that I have been.
Speaker 2Don't look at me just because I wanted to pack the drink okay who was that guy that came in the other day or earlier today oh, the guttermouth gang guy.
Speaker 1They got big guttermouths. He must have spilled. We got to find him and for a lot of reasons. Yeah, we also can't let Norks shut this place down. This is our like, this is our hideout, this is our place. Yeah, all right.
Speaker 2Well, what are we supposed to do with this guy? And Kate says I'll take care of him.
Speaker 1No, hold on here. Nobody's taking care of anybody.
Speaker 2I mean Unless you're gonna spill.
Speaker 1Are you gonna spill?
Speaker 2Wait, is there a?
Speaker 1bounty on this guy. I can't help you. If you're going to spill, cade's going to take you away and he's essentially the bad guy boogeyman. I make a song called Bad Guy Boogeyman. It's an instant hit, yeah.
Speaker 2Cade is already walking up the stairs with this guy slung over his shoulder and he's screaming Please, no, no, not.
Speaker 1Kate Catterett.
Speaker 2Look, I'm just a measly guy, you know, no one cares about me.
All right, I'll walk up behind him, but I'm not going to intervene until we get into, like, the main area, so that he's sweating the whole time. I'll be like hey, kate, let him down for a second. I got an idea. Kate doesn't listen to any of this. He just looks at you and keeps walking. Hey, cade, come on, we're buddies, where's Underbrink?
Speaker 2I'm trying to stop him, but he just walks forward and I slide the clock before I got an idea we could use this guy.
Speaker 1We could use this guy, we could put the hurt on On the turkey toes on everybody. He's got information.
Speaker 2He stops and looks at you, look.
Speaker 1If we can get some information About how he heard about this guy I don't know how much you know About what's going on with Underbrink, but what kind of spies or whatever and if we can get our hands on those badges that were stolen from the mayor's office, we could infiltrate the magistrate's office and, I don't know, bring back some info that could not only get rid of the copper hats but maybe make us all a little bit of money.
Speaker 2He doesn't say a word, but he just throws the guy to the ground. He falls unconscious.
Speaker 1From the impact of being thrown to the ground. You did good, big guy. He drops him on his head. Don't touch me. Never again, never, never again. Gonna do that. Um, but we should. We should find out where that gunner mouth guy is. Through this guy, use him as bait. What do you say? What I was gonna say put a wire on him. But this land of him, I mean we have, we can get a shrimp wire there's, there's gonna be a shrimp listening device. Get a shrimp wire. Yeah, have a giant sting.
Speaker 2Yeah, same as uh coming out in the shrimp uh sandbox in yeah 26 2026, yet it's gonna be a lot of things that you can craft. That'll be one of them a shrimp wire, Shrimp wire.
Speaker 1It's actually based on the series the Wire. It's set in the mythical land of Baltimore.
Speaker 2Except it's. I don't know what the first recording devices look like.
Speaker 1It's probably like if you're talking in in real life. It would be like ridges and etchings on wax discs or like pottery. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2It's a phonograph. It's like this giant thing that you put on your back.
Speaker 1So it's really obvious yeah, we'll do is, we'll put it into a Nadaki tube steak stand and yeah behind him in a disguise. Um, but yeah, maybe we follow this guy like, maybe we like are you saying you just um?
Speaker 2are you saying you just um, you're not having him?
Speaker 1you're not coercing him into being in on it, you're just kind of following him. No, no, I think we should coerce him to being in on it, or else kade will come get him, like that's what we can threaten him with, and then like if whoever his contact was to find out about this, we just follow him and like spring on the contact, like in the mall, and then get those badges back because it's got to be the gutter mouth guy, because we invited him to the thing yeah unless the gutter mouth guy told, like somebody else, that the norks noodle gang, in which case like spread like wildfire yeah, it's spread like wildfire.
Speaker 1These guys took advantage of it, in which case we've got to have him secretly initiate us into the gang.
Speaker 1So we're going to join every gang in the in bogtown yeah, we're just gonna and I'm gonna go back and complete my recruitment with the copper tops or copper hats, so we'll join every faction, every faction we're going to, we're going to you know the crap out of this. Yeah, yeah, actually, that's what I was thinking. We're going to, you know, jimbo the crap out of this. All right Should we end it here, I feel like it's more than we can possibly do. It's a lot to chew on right now. Yeah, we'll set up our sting next quest all right, let's do some XP, xp's.
Speaker 2All right, what we got over here?
Speaker 1I guess some XP for singing about Naked Donkey tube stakes.
Speaker 2Complete a quest or objective. You know you did the.
