Ep. 47: The Siege of Eldoria - Part 2

Our heroes' combat and quest to stop the Crystal Talons continues as one of their members, a magical Air Genasi, steps in the way to stop them. Will they be able to get past him in time, or will they be stopped on their quest to save the Moonmother Tree?

Transcript

SPEAKER_06 0:28

You guys will not be making it past here. Be on your way.

SPEAKER_01 0:36

No thanks.

SPEAKER_02 0:39

Are we initiative? Not yet, right? Or are we? What happens if we do make it past here?

SPEAKER_06 0:53

I'm not the one you have to be worried about, but it would probably be in your best interest to make your way back. The battle is lost. As we hear people screaming and and dying and sea trees burning. And the sound of wood crackling in the fire. I mentioned last episode that fires are starting to spread, but surprisingly not as quickly as you might have uh originally surmised. But they are still catching on fire. Um so they're not spreading as quickly, but where you are, at least a couple of these like homes have started to catch on fire. You can see in these like small cutouts of what are their windows, uh a red glow from within a handful of them.

SPEAKER_07 1:43

If you expect us to just turn a blind eye to suffering, I'm sorry, we're the wrong people.

SPEAKER_02 1:52

Then go and help. Is he between us and like the wolf?

SPEAKER_06 2:01

They're pretty close side by side. The biggest difference is they're on this main road. They're about 60 feet away from you, but the wolf is more on in the direction that you guys are headed, which is towards the moon mother tree. Uh it's more to the right. And then it seems that uh this air genasi had stepped out from the left side, like out of a home or like in between some of the trees. Like you guys didn't really see him until he was already walking out. In the in the road, kind of so then if your biggest concern is the people, then go help them.

SPEAKER_02 2:34

Leave the moon mother be. Are you going to hurt the moon mother?

SPEAKER_07 3:53

We've already come this far, and if you're with the crystal talents, then you've got us to fight. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_06 4:06

You all seem like nice people. It's just a shame that you're all gonna die here. But I guess that's the price you pay, right? As this is happening, uh, there's a moment where Tamson and like on your guys' end and the wolf next to this Air Janasi, they're all kind of like eyeing the situation. Like clearly, you guys have had like a brief encounter. Um Pierce, I believe this is the first time you're I mean, still 60 feet away, but I think this is the first time that you or was everybody in the room when I met the air. Okay, okay, cool, cool, cool.

SPEAKER_04 4:41

We all saw how handsome he was, and it sucked.

SPEAKER_06 4:44

Um yeah, you guys again, no role necessary. You guys are just seeing like as uh the wolf and like Tam's like literally fires are happening, everything that has just happened just left combat maybe five minutes before. Um, and then you guys are having like this interaction, and there's like this moment of even even from the wolf, like you can tell in its wolf form, uh like hackles or raised a little bit, but like unsure of whatever this dynamic is, uh like on edge. This air genazi, on the other hand, not a care in the world.

SPEAKER_02 5:18

If you wish to try to make it past me, this will be your end.

SPEAKER_06 5:25

I'd rather not have to kill promising young people, but that's what it is.

SPEAKER_02 5:40

You're not okay with killing us.

SPEAKER_07 5:44

But the crystal talons are okay with killing many, many more. So I think that's something we're we're gonna have to risk.

SPEAKER_06 5:54

And I run at him. He shoots these like concussive waves or blasts from his hands, and they end up hitting a tree to the side of you guys. It's like this home, and it's already a home that's been catching on fire. The sounds like are concussive, they're like loud, and you hear wood splintering, and then you start to hear this like sickening as more of the tree uh starts to break, the roots can't sustain it, and a massive tree behind you, maybe about 15 feet, lands, uh blocking off a main part of the road. We can't we just can't turn around. It seems like he is attempting to prevent your exit, at least turn around. I need everybody to roll initiative.

SPEAKER_04 6:44

Yo, you said you wouldn't hurt the trees.

SPEAKER_00 6:47

Come on, I said the moon mother. I said the moon mother.

SPEAKER_05 7:05

Like as as this tree is falling, like under the sound of that, I speak to the group because I don't want other air ginazi to hear me. I mean, we're far enough away, he probably wouldn't, anyways. Yeah, if you lower your voice, you'd be fine. Guys, do you should we split up?

SPEAKER_04 7:28

I'm staying back here.

SPEAKER_07 7:32

Split up as in I would have a group have a group leave. I would think if you leave to the meadow. I think if you leave, we're gonna die. You see Pierce Pierce weighed these options in his head for just a second longer than you really should.

SPEAKER_06 7:55

Campson looks in you says, We will die.

SPEAKER_05 8:02

We need you please do not he's a magic user, and I don't know how much help that will be.

SPEAKER_04 8:16

Well, you'll go find out.

SPEAKER_06 8:18

Very cool. What did Buka get? Fourteen. What did Val get?

SPEAKER_04 8:27

Twenty-one.

SPEAKER_06 8:30

And then what did Pierce get? Seventeen. Very good. Hell yeah. You guys rolled great.

unknown 9:12

Cool.

SPEAKER_06 9:13

Alrighty, everybody is squared away. Um to kind of set the scene about 15 feet behind you, again, this massive, massive tree. I think you guys even notice the scale even more as it's fully just flat, as it's, you know, been brought down by by these attacks. And the fire weakening it as well. But you start to see again, just the fire is starting to spread at this moment. Uh but the only thing in between you and the moon mother tree is this air genasi. Uh, and then still currently in its wolf form, both about 60 feet away, uh, is the uh the shapeshifter. But that is going to be Val.

SPEAKER_04 9:54

I would like to I know what I'm doing. I would like to use Hunter's Mark. Wait, no, I still have Hunter's Mark on the on the No?

SPEAKER_06 10:06

How long does Hunter's Mark last?

SPEAKER_04 10:08

Good question. Uh up to one hour.

SPEAKER_06 10:12

Yeah, yeah. I would say it's still is on the wolf.

SPEAKER_04 10:14

Perfect.

SPEAKER_06 10:15

I think it lasts about a week worth of test time.

SPEAKER_04 10:19

Maybe 65.

SPEAKER_06 10:20

I think if you upcast it, it does last like like a long time.

SPEAKER_04 10:25

Oh nice. So like at the second level?

SPEAKER_06 10:28

Maybe. I don't know. But it's yeah, it's been less than an hour. Definitely.

SPEAKER_04 10:32

So he's still marked. We love that. So I'm still gonna shoot my shot with my bow at the the wolf man. Because he looks injured. Um does a 15 hit?

SPEAKER_06 10:47

15 uh sorry that I had his stuff up. A 15 uh would hit. Yes, 15 does hit. Nice.

SPEAKER_04 10:59

So we have 12 points of longbow damage for the first one plus the Nice! Another six, so 18 for uh 18 points of piercing damage for that.

SPEAKER_06 11:11

As that happens, you see that he immediately reverts to his uh human form. I haven't been taken out of that.

SPEAKER_04 11:18

Perfect, and then we hit again. It does a 20 hit. 20 does hit perfect so seven points plus the ten points of piercing damage to human form or person form, not wolf form.

SPEAKER_06 11:42

Hell yeah. Right on, and then holding on to your bonus action, right? Since you're not moving the mark, right on. That is gonna be this air genasi. He is going. You see that he go ahead and give me perception checks, the three of you.

SPEAKER_07 12:03

Perception nice, all right.

SPEAKER_06 12:10

What do we got? 23, 16, 23. I don't know what mine was.

SPEAKER_04 12:16

27.

SPEAKER_06 12:17

Yeah, that's 27. Cool. Oh, yeah. For my 20 nut people, you guys see immediately, like his eyes almost seem to like sink in for a second, and there is this like red glow where his eyes are, kind of in the same way that like embers as they're like dying out like in a fire, still have that red glow. You guys kind of notice this, and you start to feel this immediate level of cold kind of like sweep the area as he extends his hands out, and you feel cold, and I think instinctively uh you guys start to look at uh like the fires to see if like it has any effect. But I'll say with those two perception checks, because they're like above 20, you notice that the shadows uh from like all the fires and everything, and uh this kind of it's still distant sunrise. Uh the shadows all around you just get a little bit longer and extend further. But that is going to be his action. Uh that is pierced with Buka on deck. How far away is he? Sixty feet.

SPEAKER_05 13:41

I don't have a way of attacking him from here.

SPEAKER_06 13:44

Um just throw your sword, just throw your sword, it'll be fine.

SPEAKER_05 13:48

Yeah. I'm going to just throw me and use my full movement to get into melee with him.

SPEAKER_06 13:58

Cool. So specifically with the Air Janasi. Yeah. You close in. At this point, you're getting like a like a front view of like a up close view of just like his eyes as they're still kind of like sunken in. And then as you approach, the shadows extend, uh, and then his face almost returns to like returns to normal. And as you get close and just says, You seem like a logical person. Don't don't do this.

SPEAKER_05 14:28

Being a logical person is exactly why I am doing this.

SPEAKER_06 14:33

A fool indeed. That is gonna be Buka. Sweet.

SPEAKER_07 14:39

Did I notice the shadows do anything to Pierce?

SPEAKER_06 14:42

No, no, at this point you are unsure as to like what they're doing. So I mean he I mean Pierce, because there's points where again like the shadows do kind of across even across like the road that you're on, Pierce ran um and didn't seem uh like bothered uh or phased by the shadows.

SPEAKER_07 15:01

Great. I think I'm gonna run up to I'm gonna run up to do do do do this. Yeah, I'm gonna use my feline movement so I can double my speed.

SPEAKER_03 15:19

Okay.

SPEAKER_07 15:21

So I can get up to him in using just my movement. And I'm going to swipe at him with my rapier.

SPEAKER_06 15:31

Hell yeah. Go ahead.

SPEAKER_07 15:36

Nice. A 21 to hit? 21 does hit. Great. That you scared me for a second. I'm going to use a distracting strike as well. So that uses one of my Bardic inspirations. First damage. So 13 damage with my rapier. Distracting strike is a D8. Just two more damage. So 15 damage total. The next attack roll against him has advantage. Very cool. Other than myself. And then I'm going to swing again because I get two attacks.

SPEAKER_06 16:13

As you go and do that first hit, there is like a moment where you're so used to a little bit of like blood or anything starts to like drip. And there's a moment where it's just like black Icker falling instead of blood. And he is going to where is it?

SPEAKER_07 16:33

Is he gonna spew his icker on me? That's gross.

SPEAKER_06 16:36

It is very gross.

SPEAKER_07 16:37

It's so gross, you probably shouldn't do that. Like that, but like the visual of it is just gonna be disturbing to people.

SPEAKER_06 16:42

So go ahead and roll a deck saving throw for me.

unknown 16:48

Ugh.

SPEAKER_06 16:50

DC 18.

SPEAKER_07 16:52

Oh, great. Yeah. Nine.

SPEAKER_06 16:54

And this is only only Book that has to roll, even though I'm right there. Correct. He you immediately feel like the fire from this nearby area come and just burn you. You start to feel like the singing of your skin. You start to have flashbacks to just less than 10 minutes ago when you were down because of the wall of fire. And you take uh 19 fire damage as he hellish rebukes you.

SPEAKER_07 17:23

Great. Heck yeah. Uh ow. And I'm gonna swing on him again.

SPEAKER_06 17:29

Do it. There's nothing you can do. And then as he's looking at both of you that are in melee with him right now.

SPEAKER_07 17:36

19.

SPEAKER_06 17:37

19 does hit.

SPEAKER_07 17:40

Great. My rapier. Another 13 damage. Hell yeah. And you did that one with advantage, right? No, so the next attack that's not me. Okay, okay, cool. Yeah. And then I can use as my bonus action. Who? As my bonus action, should I healing word myself? Oh, I think I should. I'm gonna healing word myself. Well, he used Hellish Rebuke, right?

SPEAKER_06 18:13

Yes.

SPEAKER_07 18:14

Great. I'm gonna healing word myself at the second level. Do it. Yo yo yo yo yo.

SPEAKER_05 18:25

Question before we move on from Boopersman. Yes. Something for Pierce that I haven't used yet. Would his hellish like is that an attack on his part? No, is it a reaction?

SPEAKER_06 18:41

It's a reaction. And it uses a saving throw versus like a like an actual hit.

SPEAKER_05 18:46

Okay.

SPEAKER_07 18:48

What happened to my role? I think it was 11. I healed myself for 11.

SPEAKER_06 18:55

Oh yeah. And then that uses up your movement action and bonus actions. That is going to be our air Janasi. You see that he is going to use up uh legendary action.

unknown 19:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 19:13

And there's a point where he looks at you both and just says, You shouldn't have left the long-range fighter on their own. And he falls back into the shadow, uh, using up 50 uh or using up his 60 feet. Uh does shadowed retreat. Um then Val, there's a moment where you're seeing this from a distance, you don't see him anymore. And just immediately behind you, like right by your ear, he just says, So, what was your name? And that is going to be our now in human form, Wolf. He's about 20 feet away from you guys. Um he is and he is going to cast uh what's he gonna cast? He is going to cast Oh, he's gonna cast sunbeam on you guys. Oh you see that he holds out his hand and then just the brightest light that you have ever witnessed. I need both of you guys to uh make con saving throws. DC 15. Yeah, 16. Oh, nice, 17. Nice roll. You guys are are still going to take 68 radiant damage.

SPEAKER_07 20:48

We're gonna take a short rest. Sure. Is that what is that what you said?

SPEAKER_06 20:53

Yes. You guys take 13 radiant damage. Great. That could have been a lot. And you guys are able to, like before it fully hits you, you guys are able to cover your eyes. And even then, like eyes closed, covered, you're you can still feel the actual light like penetrating through. But if you feel you guys feel that if you guys would have been a second slower, you might not be able to see so good. I can see fine, my eyes are just closed. Uh it's fine, we're fine. Um, that is going to be our boy Tempson. He is oh, I have so many notes. Hold on.

SPEAKER_07 21:45

Tamson's got some stuff up his sleeve.

SPEAKER_04 21:48

Is Tamson near me?

SPEAKER_07 21:49

Yes, yes, yes.

SPEAKER_04 21:51

Oh, good. So I'm not by myself. Right?

SPEAKER_06 21:56

Yeah. No, oh we refined. He is going to cast. He's still got a couple. Ew, actually, will that work? Because right now this Janasi is right behind you. Tamson is gonna cast Gust of Wind. And then I don't believe this guy has very strong strength. Oh, he has nothing to do the strength saving throw. Yes. This is gonna be DC 15 strength save. He's gonna hold off on using that. And all of a sudden, you as you turn around to look at this air genossival, immediately he gets knocked 15 feet away from you. Nice. Um as this happened, Tamson looks at you, Val and just says, Are you okay?

SPEAKER_04 23:03

Yeah. It's fine. We'll be fine.

SPEAKER_06 23:13

And then at the end of Tamson's turn, uh he is gonna use up his last legendary action for the round. And is going to cast um. Yeah, he's gonna cast uh Eldridge Blast. Uh and you see kind of similarly to uh the attacks that he did on the tree. Uh one of them is coming towards Val, the other two are coming to Tamson. For Val, does uh yeah, 25 is gonna hit. Uh Val, you take uh 12 force damage.

SPEAKER_04 24:08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 24:09

Uh a dirty 20 does hit Tamson and a 22 to hit Tamson.

SPEAKER_07 24:17

Um Tamson takes my crush on Tamson.

SPEAKER_04 24:23

You or him?

SPEAKER_07 24:25

No, the age Nazi.

SPEAKER_04 24:27

I've been calling him AJ in my nose because we don't have that.

SPEAKER_07 24:30

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_06 24:32

Um, sweet Tamson. Uh Tamson uh is very hurt right now. Uh Tamson is currently at 3 HP. Great.

SPEAKER_04 24:47

Great.

SPEAKER_06 24:49

Um and uses his movement uh and then uh closes the distance with Val again. So like I was asking before, what was your name? And Val, that is your turn.

SPEAKER_04 25:10

I forgot. Uh this is my friend over here, and then I forgot your name. I I cast cure wounds at the second level for Tamson.

SPEAKER_00 25:27

Great.

SPEAKER_04 25:29

He heals he heals for nine.

SPEAKER_03 25:32

He needs it.

SPEAKER_04 25:36

And I don't have a name. I suddenly forgot.

SPEAKER_06 25:42

I have that effect.

SPEAKER_04 25:45

Right. Right. So if I cast a spell, does that I I'm done, yeah, unless it's like a bonus action.

SPEAKER_06 25:53

Yes.

SPEAKER_04 25:54

Like your turn.

SPEAKER_06 25:56

No, my I Well, question before so handsome. Yeah. Did you have a bonus action healing that you could have done? No. Okay.

SPEAKER_04 26:06

Just my good friend over here, Tamson. Not Tamson, I didn't say that out loud. This is my good friend. Maybe you should ask him.

SPEAKER_06 26:14

Tamson. What's your Tamson is like bleeding? Like uh immediately just trying to like hold in whatever like breath that he has left in his body. Uh I'll never tell. That being said, though, if you wanted to, you can also move your uh hunter's mark to him.

SPEAKER_04 26:33

Let's move my hunter's mark to him.

SPEAKER_06 26:39

That is gonna be Vail. Turn. Um and then it's back to this Air Genazi. And he looks at you and just says, My name is Fawn. Get back to me when you remember your name. And immediately is uh does that use up an action?

SPEAKER_04 27:03

I think it does use a fawn like F-A-W-N.

SPEAKER_06 27:11

F-O-H-N. Fawn. He would sp like that. From a distance, he hears Pierce talking and just kind of tussles his hair a little bit. Uh hold on, there's actually there's actually my change what he does this round. Oh, I don't think he does. Cool. He is going to use an action. Or sorry, doesn't use up an action. I'm so sorry as I'm reading it. Um and immediately, kind of almost from the air itself, he seems to grasp at something, pulls down on it, and then in his hand is a scimitar. Ooh. And he's gonna bonus action. He's gonna hex blade curse Val. You feel the shadows around you just kind of gather closer to you.

SPEAKER_07 28:16

And he guys just exchanged curses on the first date. That's crazy. You marked him, dude. Yeah. You guys did you guys imprint on each other? What happened?

SPEAKER_06 28:30

Did you guys 11 slashing damage as he's so great?

SPEAKER_04 28:41

Hey, I'ma I'm a I'ma take a nap real quick. Oh no.

SPEAKER_06 28:48

Oh, there's no way you're down.

SPEAKER_04 28:49

You guys healed before I only healed for that much, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 28:54

Oh potions and yep. Yeah, we didn't do like a short short rest. Oh, that's crazy. Should have healed.

SPEAKER_04 29:09

I was crazy once.

SPEAKER_00 29:10

Should have drank all of our potions. I know we should have drank all of our potions. Everyone's rats.

SPEAKER_06 29:17

But that is gonna be his turn. And then the rest of you guys don't hear this. Tamson being the only one that does. Val, you kind of hear this in the peripheral as you've been knocked unconscious. What a shame. Well, on to the next Tamson, right? And he starts to walk towards Tamson. That is going to be Pierce with Buka on deck. You guys immediately see this transpire in the span of just a couple of seconds, and then you guys see Val go down. Great.

SPEAKER_07 29:51

Pierce, don't worry about Val. I can I'll I'll take care of her.

SPEAKER_05 29:57

Okay. I can't I can't get there as fast as you can, anyways. I'll take care of the druid. Okay. And then I'm gonna use my movement to close the distance on the druid. She's like 15 feet away. He's super close. We'll swing at him.

SPEAKER_06 30:19

23 to hit. 23 definitely hits.

SPEAKER_05 30:31

And then we're gonna do 11 damage.

SPEAKER_06 30:37

11 demog. He did not like that. And I think at this point too, uh, Pierce, you you notice that uh the injuries that he had sustained earlier maybe had started like barely starting to close up at some point. And you can tell that there some of like the wounds that he received are starting to like reopen.

SPEAKER_05 31:01

Okay, cool. I am gonna use my two weapon fighting to then uh stab at him with my dagger. Do it for a 21 to hit.

SPEAKER_06 31:14

21 does hit.

SPEAKER_05 31:16

Yes. Or I don't get the plus. So it'll be six damage with the dagger.

SPEAKER_03 31:27

Damn.

SPEAKER_06 31:30

Hell yeah. Hell yeah. He as you do that, he like snarls. You guys, you can tell that there's still a lot of like lupine features about him. As he still has like these like sharp fangs, and just says, Nothing you do will matter in the end. And that is gonna be Buco.

SPEAKER_07 31:51

Oh gosh. Okay, so I'm gonna move. Yeah, I'm gonna run 30 feet towards Val. And I'm gonna start with my bonus action. I'm gonna bonus action healing word at the first level. Hell yeah. Four for Bow. And that will give you five.

SPEAKER_07 33:24

You get away from Gerard and Jessica.

SPEAKER_06 33:31

Looks at Tamson. You lied. She lied. Oh no. Is he more angry now? Can I give me a quick insight check? Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

A movement, action, bonus action, yeah? Yes. Very cool. That is going to be our wolf guy. As you've closed the distance, he is going to for flavor's sake, he's gonna get he's gonna grab one of the branches nearby. Mechanically, he does have a quarter staff. Uh just for the flavor of what we're doing right now.

SPEAKER_07 34:24

Um, the mother tree, so he has to roll with disadvantage, right?

SPEAKER_06 34:28

It is not a branch from the mother tree. You guys are a thousand feet away. Okay, this is this is buttoned up. The mother tree is huge. This is buttoned up. Uh but he is going to take uh a swing at you because that's the best thing he can do at this moment. He is going to do. Oh, it's caught.

unknown 34:48

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 34:49

21 to hit. And that is going to be 10 bludgeoning damage. As he just literally just bonks you in the head at this point. Sees that you're still standing and is like, you're still gonna die here. I'll just take my head. That is going to be he's gonna use up another legendary action. And a man. Welcome to the end of arc 2, y'all. Yeah.

He gets they reset three every turn.

SPEAKER_06 35:31

SPEAKER_00 35:46

There's no freaking way.

SPEAKER_06 35:51

He misses. What the hell? Yeah. With a with a two on the die. Yeah. He goes to cast shocking grasp. And Tamson literally just tucks and rolls. As lightning almost seems to shoot out just briefly, and then Tamson sees this bullet time and jumps out of the way. Nice.

SPEAKER_04 36:13

You can't mess with George like that. Is that the name you said?

SPEAKER_06 36:21

You said his name was Tamson. I'm pretty sure I said Gerard.

SPEAKER_04 36:27

Oh.

SPEAKER_06 36:28

He said Gerard.

SPEAKER_04 36:30

And I said George.

SPEAKER_06 36:34

SPEAKER_07 36:46

He gets to roll with Advantage.

Oh, not 20. Woo! Shout out to the advantage because the other die was a four. Hell yeah. Um shocking grasp.

SPEAKER_04 37:00

We needed this. Thank you, George.

SPEAKER_06 37:04

Gerard Jennifer. Absolutely shocking. Not anything super super crazy, but we'll do 288 damage for 10 lightning damage. Right on? Yes. Not bad on a cantrip. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_05 37:29

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_06 37:33

That is gonna be back to Val. Val consciousness returns to you. You're currently on the ground, but you see at this point that uh who he's he's introduced himself as Fawn now. Uh his back is to you as he is currently engaged with Tamson.

SPEAKER_04 37:49

Does getting up from prone count as a like movement?

SPEAKER_06 37:53

It uses up half your movement.

SPEAKER_04 37:56

Okay, and then I would like to go into melee at his back.

SPEAKER_06 38:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 38:02

And uh use my dagger, which was gifted to me nicely.

SPEAKER_06 38:07

Hasn't really come into effect a whole lot. Go ahead and roll this with advantage as you have him uh as he's in between you and Tamson.

SPEAKER_04 38:17

Eki, so 24.

SPEAKER_06 38:20

24 does hit 26!

SPEAKER_04 38:23

Yay!

SPEAKER_05 38:25

Surprisingly 26 also hit.

SPEAKER_04 38:28

Wow! Crazy. Oh let's do six damage for the first one and eight damage for the next one. Oh yeah. Thanks, Thel.

SPEAKER_07 38:43

And then wait, did you you attack twice?

SPEAKER_04 38:49

Yes.

SPEAKER_07 38:51

Oh, so you have to roll that you have to roll your d20 two more times. Or is it just the first attack with advantage?

SPEAKER_04 38:56

I did. No, it's all it's both.

SPEAKER_07 38:59

Okay, well I'll do that. Yeah, you were getting advantage, so.

SPEAKER_04 39:01

Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay.

SPEAKER_07 39:03

Well, just in case we get a 20.

SPEAKER_04 39:05

Now 17. And the 20! And that 20!

SPEAKER_06 39:11

Okay, so then we'll do it was six damage for the first one. Okay. So we'll return eight damage or eight HP back to make this square away. But go ahead and roll this.

SPEAKER_05 39:21

You roll your hunter's mark damage for the first one.

SPEAKER_04 39:24

Was that counting as hunter's mark for I thought that's just with my bow. No?

SPEAKER_06 39:28

No, I think it's any damage. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 39:31

Oh fuck yeah. Can I just roll my hunter's mark again? Hold on.

SPEAKER_06 39:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 39:36

Hold on. I'm doing so much damage. I thought it was just with my boat. My bad. Okay, so five plus six is 11 for the first round of stab, right?

SPEAKER_06 39:48

So another five damage, you got it.

SPEAKER_04 39:50

Yeah, another five damage. And then I rolled eight damage altogether for my not 20 hit. And then Hunter's mark plus five is 13.

SPEAKER_06 40:02

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_04 40:03

Immediately he's like, my name.

SPEAKER_06 40:08

You can see that this point is still up, but did not enjoy literally being stabbed in the back. Uh and just says, This is not any way to introduce yourself.

SPEAKER_04 40:21

You could have introduced yourself back in the room, but here we are.

SPEAKER_06 40:27

That is, his, his, his ex is currently on because he switched it over to Tamsin.

SPEAKER_05 40:39

I think he's still internally hurt from missing his last attack, so he's self-conscious and decides not to.

SPEAKER_07 40:48

He's that was a confirmation, right? He is He is He is self-conscious.

SPEAKER_05 41:03

His legendary action is to be.

SPEAKER_04 41:09

Not to be. He decides to take a nap.

SPEAKER_05 41:13

I is.

SPEAKER_04 41:16

That's me. I'm him.

SPEAKER_07 41:20

This is real. This is me. I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be.

SPEAKER_06 41:30

Supposed to be. I don't know. I'm a real word. He did not enjoy getting stabbed. I need an intelligent saving throw from Valve.

SPEAKER_04 41:39

Oh, good thing I'm so intelligent. Oh, so I got a one, a not one on the die, and then I have a minus one intelligent, and I'm not.

SPEAKER_06 41:52

What was the total? Zero. Oh sick. You are gonna take um seven psychic damage.

SPEAKER_04 42:02

Great. I'm going nine again.

SPEAKER_06 42:07

What? Cool. No, nothing. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. Oh, and then what? He is gonna. So you drive a so he cast mine sliver. And you feel this sickening, like just sharp, like the worst migraine you've ever had to the point where light literally just disappears and you fall unconscious. Technically, if we get to this point. Target must succeed on intelligence, saving throw, or take one or take psychic damage, and subtract one d4 from the next saving throw it makes before the end of your next turn. Death saving throws are saving throws.

SPEAKER_04 42:48

Yeah. So oh my okay, great.

SPEAKER_06 42:53

So whenever whenever you get to your turn.

SPEAKER_07 42:55

You need a 14 or better. 1d4. Oh, right.

unknown 43:01

Okay.

SPEAKER_07 43:02

But to be safe, you need a 14. You need a 14 or better.

SPEAKER_03 43:05

Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_06 43:06

Um but that'll be on your turn. That is the end of the bonus action.

SPEAKER_07 43:14

Oh, I thought this was just his uh legendary action.

SPEAKER_06 43:17

No, no, this was his turn, because he's right after about.

SPEAKER_07 43:19

Oh no, it's his turn. Oh, okay. His bonus action is to pat himself on the back. Good job, Fon.

SPEAKER_06 43:30

Yeah, good job. Very cool. That is going to be pierced with Uga on deck.

SPEAKER_05 43:39

I'm so fighting. Just got a box in the head.

SPEAKER_06 43:51

Sixteen? Sixteen does not hit Oh. Dagger. Immediately just use immediately just uses the order staff to block it on.

SPEAKER_07 44:08

Wait, are you are you in rage right now? Did you already add the plus two?

SPEAKER_05 44:14

That's the damage, not to my attack roll.

SPEAKER_07 44:17

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_05 44:20

I think there's certain conditions where I get a damage on rolls, but no, it's just not a saving roll. I will try to hit him with my little dagger. Do you get a little dagger? Seventeen? Seventeen does it. Yeah. Seven damage. Seven damage.

SPEAKER_06 44:58

Interesting. That is gonna be Buka, but before Buka Buka can go, seeing that Val is down again, falls into the shadow once again is gonna use up two legendary actions. And then Buka. Similarly to like Val, you hear a voice just immediately behind you and say, And so what was your name? Can I use Brace? Yes, you may. It is your turn.

SPEAKER_07 45:27

Oh Brace is a reaction. Also, yeah, go for it.

SPEAKER_06 45:30

Still going into it.

SPEAKER_07 45:32

When uh when a creature you see moves into the reach you have with a melee weapon, you can use your reaction to make an attack. Hell yeah. Use it up.

SPEAKER_05 45:40

Oh, you just got the scimitar now.

SPEAKER_07 45:42

Yeah. I'm going to use my rip here.

SPEAKER_05 45:47

Do it.

SPEAKER_07 45:48

Gosh dang it. Well. That misses, I think. 12. Do I add it to make one attack using that weapon if it's attack hits? Nope. Anyway. Using the scimitar blocks it out of the way. Okay, well, I now it's my actual turn. I'm gonna swing again.

SPEAKER_06 46:07

This is like parts of the Caribbean as you guys are. Yeah. What is your name? Why does no one want to tell me their name? Is this 16 hit? 16 does it.

SPEAKER_07 46:18

Great. Uh use my rapier. Ugh. Seven damage. Seven damage. Then swing again. Do it. That's a big no. That was a one plus six is seven. So I miss. But I'm gonna use my bonus action to healing word val. At the first level.

SPEAKER_04 46:45

Yay!

SPEAKER_00 46:46

Yay! Yay!

SPEAKER_04 46:48

No, it's only his name, I didn't know.

SPEAKER_07 46:51

He's gonna counter spell us. Ah, never mind. What was Mind Sliver? Was Mindsliver his turn or was Minesliver a reaction?

SPEAKER_06 46:58

Mindsliver was his turn.

SPEAKER_07 47:00

Okay, so he counterspells it, and I spit into the ground next to me.

SPEAKER_06 47:06

Uh you go seeing your friend in danger, and almost like a shadow, like a specter, puts his hand on your hand, and you feel like the spell just fizzle off.

SPEAKER_07 47:20

I I pull my hand away quickly, like like I touched something wet. It felt cold. Even worse.

SPEAKER_06 47:29

Wet cold. And she as it happens looks at you and just says, She didn't want to be forthcoming. Maybe you'll feel different. I don't think so. That is going to be our wolf friend. He is going to cast coming at me again. He is not gonna do that again.

SPEAKER_04 48:20

I don't like it when Renee talks to himself because then I die. Right. No, you're fine.

SPEAKER_06 48:31

Oh no, yeah. You are gonna gur you're gonna you're gonna get it. He is going to use because he already used it once earlier today. He's gonna use his last blight on you, Pierce.

SPEAKER_04 48:51

Your skincare routine.

SPEAKER_06 48:53

At this point everyone's been freaking hit with this. Go ahead and give me a DC 15 con saving throw.

SPEAKER_05 49:01

Oh 17.

SPEAKER_07 49:05

I love constitution saving throws when you're Pierce.

SPEAKER_06 49:10

You are still going to take half. You take 19 necrotic damage.

SPEAKER_00 49:24

Is that that's half?

SPEAKER_04 49:26

Blight.

SPEAKER_05 49:27

Yeah, Blythe Blythe hit it pretty hard in like the very beginning of the fight. Before we came out.

SPEAKER_06 49:38

39 damage halved. Cute. How's everyone doing?

SPEAKER_05 49:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 49:49

I don't answer.

SPEAKER_05 49:52

It doesn't even matter.

SPEAKER_03 49:54

I didn't hear you.

SPEAKER_05 49:56

I can swing just as hard with one health as I can with 30.

SPEAKER_03 50:00

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 50:03

Tamson gave away all his potions. They did.

SPEAKER_07 50:08

Yeah, but he's not next head. Oh, for Val. Yeah. Interessante.

SPEAKER_06 50:16

Guess that means he doesn't have any. He is gonna he's gonna close in on Val. No, he can't do a whole lot this turn, but he's gonna.

SPEAKER_04 50:25

Oh, do you Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 50:28

Yeah, we all are carrying some. Go ahead and uh he will do it as a bonus action. So it's on your character sheet. Val. Go ahead and roll. And then you will you will get that much back. Because he's gonna do it as a bonus action.

SPEAKER_04 50:43

What do I roll it?

SPEAKER_05 50:46

Potion of healing. Roll the potion. 2d4 plus 2.

SPEAKER_04 50:50

Oh, 2d points.

SPEAKER_05 50:51

Unless you have a greater. No, I just have I just have regular potion of healing. So yeah, two d4 plus two.

SPEAKER_04 50:59

Hold on. I'll just do it then.

SPEAKER_05 51:01

Hey, even one health means you don't have to death saving throw with the negative roll.

unknown 51:07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 51:10

The bright five. You know?

SPEAKER_04 51:13

Yeah. Two D4. That is three plus two is five health.

SPEAKER_05 51:19

You get five health back. But you are back in it.

SPEAKER_04 51:22

Minus one.

SPEAKER_06 51:24

You're back.

SPEAKER_04 51:26

No one's holding him my name, right?

SPEAKER_06 51:28

Wait, what do you mean minus one?

SPEAKER_04 51:31

What? One minus one potion.

SPEAKER_06 51:33

Oh, minus one potion. And he is going to legendary action. That would be funny.

SPEAKER_04 51:45

I'm alone. I'm dead. I'm alone.

SPEAKER_06 51:49

He is gonna cast He's gonna cast Elemental Bane.

SPEAKER_04 51:55

Who's casting this?

SPEAKER_06 51:56

Tamsin.

SPEAKER_04 51:58

Oh good.

SPEAKER_06 51:59

Uh choose one creature you can see within range and choose one of the following damage types acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder. He's gonna choose fire. The target must succeed on a con saving throw. These cons a lot better.

SPEAKER_07 52:10

Dude, it's it's crazy that you're like gonna have him target his own his own teammate right now with this. Um he's just gonna take him out.

SPEAKER_04 52:23

Take who out me.

SPEAKER_07 52:26

No.

SPEAKER_06 52:26

The wolf. Tamson's doing it.

SPEAKER_04 52:29

Wolf, this is Tamson!

SPEAKER_07 52:31

I thought you were saying that he was. I thought I thought you said it was his legendary action right now.

SPEAKER_06 52:37

No, no, no, he's gonna use his action. For a second I thought it was going to be, but then he's No no no because he uses bonus action for that human potion. Um so he's gonna use fire. The target must succeed on a con saving throw fawn failed. The first time each the first time each turn, the effected target takes damage of the chosen type. Target takes an additional 2d6 damage of that type. Moreover, the target loses any resistance to the damage type until the spell ends. He has one more fire thing that he can do, and then he is down to cantrips. But nice.

SPEAKER_05 53:17

How much is the initial damage, or is there any? It's no damage, so it's it's a future but every single turn. Yes. Yeah. He's investing in all turn or every single action.

SPEAKER_06 53:30

It'll be basically like once per turn, but yeah.

SPEAKER_05 53:33

Yeah, yeah, but he has legendary actions, so he gets three turns per turn.

SPEAKER_06 53:38

That is all I guess it's once per round over ever gonna be really breaking.

SPEAKER_07 53:47

Temp has invested in futures, and his return on investment is 2d6.

SPEAKER_06 53:51

Which is pretty good.

SPEAKER_07 53:53

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 53:54

Yeah, honestly. That is going to be oh, perfect. That is gonna be Val.

SPEAKER_04 54:02

What did you roll?

SPEAKER_06 54:08

Maybe it's a good thing. Maybe I rolled something good.

SPEAKER_04 54:11

I uh probably not. I'm gonna die again. Okay, I'm still in Melee with Mr. Fawn.

SPEAKER_06 54:18

Not at all. He's 30 feet.

SPEAKER_04 54:20

Oh, he left.

SPEAKER_05 54:21

He uses shadows. Perfect.

SPEAKER_04 54:22

Right. Sorry, I I was down, so I use half of my action to get back up. Happy movement. So now I'm like, where did he go? Whatever. Sorry, my uh half of my movement. I'm mad because I died a lot uh and I'm like, where the oh, I see. Okay, now I can hit him with my bow. Yay.

SPEAKER_07 54:39

Nope.

SPEAKER_04 54:40

13 does not hit. Does a knock.

SPEAKER_03 54:45

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_04 54:47

Perfect.

SPEAKER_00 54:48

Yes.

SPEAKER_04 54:49

So 16, and then we do hunter's mind. 20 points of piercing damage.

SPEAKER_06 54:58

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_04 55:00

Do not kill me once again. Maybe I'll tell you my name.

SPEAKER_07 55:05

Yeah, that's right.

SPEAKER_06 55:06

Jenny's from the block. Mmm, enticing. As he yelled it out, he says, That's a good enough deal for me. It is now his action. Next to Puka.

SPEAKER_07 55:18

It's his action?

SPEAKER_06 55:20

Oh, it's his turn now.

SPEAKER_07 55:23

Yeah. I go into I go into what's it called? Jell-O cat mode. Where whatever you try to do, I just kind of fold out of the way every time. It's a hidden ability that I just invented right now.

SPEAKER_04 55:38

It's a ragdoll.

SPEAKER_07 55:39

Ragdoll.

SPEAKER_04 55:40

You're a ragdoll.

SPEAKER_07 55:41

That's what I was looking for. I'm going to ragdoll cat mode. It's also invest Invest Future. So I he won't be able to take his next three turns because he's busy playing with me.

SPEAKER_06 55:58

How much HP does Buka have left? Not a lot. Do I have to tell you?

SPEAKER_07 56:09

I have six.

SPEAKER_06 56:11

What's your total right now? What's your max HP?

SPEAKER_07 56:15

No. 45.

SPEAKER_06 56:18

Okay.

SPEAKER_04 56:21

It'll be fine.

SPEAKER_03 56:24

Alright.

SPEAKER_04 56:27

You can kill me again, it's fine. I changed my mind.

SPEAKER_05 56:32

You're not in any better position than Buka is.

unknown 56:37

Okay.

SPEAKER_05 56:38

Same questions would apply.

SPEAKER_06 56:41

Looks at you, Buka, and just says, The lady gave me a deal, right? I'm gonna need a con saving throw from Buka, DC 18.

SPEAKER_04 56:54

Hey. Come on, ice cream.

SPEAKER_07 57:01

I'm at 202. So I still take half.

SPEAKER_06 57:08

And you mean you have so much HP.

SPEAKER_07 57:11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 57:11

I'm gonna let you know right now. Yeah. It's very, very good that you uh that I passed. It's still really good. It won't go, obviously it won't affect you to that extent. You take even at half, you take 20 necrotic damage as he uses up his last spell slot to cast a light. Nice. You class light. Right. Okay. You feel literally all of the life force leave from you. You're able to ensure that you don't just die. Um but you collapse. You guys see Buka drop this time.

SPEAKER_03 57:52

Oh hey, no!

SPEAKER_06 57:56

That is gonna be Pierce with Buka on deck. Okay.

SPEAKER_05 58:03

Wing in a ruin. 18 to hit. 18 does hit. Excuse me, 18 does hit. Oh nice. Max and uh dice 8, 12, 14 points of damage. Uh on on death store. No! And now I will swing with stab him or whatever with my dagger. Get him! 20. Hey, let's go. It's only a d4. You know. I don't add the plus to six eight damage. Let's go. Uh, how do you want to do it? Ah, yes. Man, it's with my dagger. I don't think I've killed anybody with my dagger before.

SPEAKER_07 59:02

I think that's what Pierce says as he's standing there.

SPEAKER_04 59:07

I haven't killed anyone with this. It's crazy.

SPEAKER_05 59:10

I think like not going for like a slash because it's it's a dagger, it's not like a full sword. And so it's like a backhand stab into the side of his neck.

SPEAKER_06 59:24

And blood starts to like fall from his mouth, uh defiantly looking at you, and then just drops. Oh, hell yeah, he is down. Buka, before you can uh do your death saving throws, uh he is going to use up a legendary action and cast Eldridge Blast on Pierce. Uh oh 29 to hit.

SPEAKER_05 59:56

Okay. Yeah, it's like legendary.

SPEAKER_06 1:00:00

Nat 20.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:02

Oh. Nice. Love that.

SPEAKER_06 1:00:08

Probably down.

SPEAKER_04 1:00:10

Renee.

SPEAKER_06 1:00:13

I've never rolled two Nat 20s in a row.

unknown 1:00:16

What?

SPEAKER_06 1:00:16

Is he attacking me twice? It's three.

SPEAKER_07 1:00:20

It's three attacks. Oh my god. Is Elgis, but Elgis is considered force damage, right? Correct. Do barbarians get half force damage?

SPEAKER_05 1:00:30

Or is it just slashing and bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing? Uh dang. Of all the spell damages, it's the only one that kind of would make sense, but yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:00:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:00:52

It's a good thing. My max health is really high, so I might 38 force damage. Yeah, at least at least I'm not dead then.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:00

Are you down?

SPEAKER_05 1:01:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 1:01:03

Renee.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:06

You guys, maybe we'll do a TPK to end our two. We'll roll brand new characters. It's gonna be great. Okay. I sense the mood I shifted in the room.

SPEAKER_07 1:01:20

Nope, I'm still smiling.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:21

As you are down because you know that that Pierce just went down.

SPEAKER_07 1:01:24

Well, I went, I was in ragdoll mode when I went before I went down.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:29

Puka, go ahead and uh roll your death saving turn. Yay.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:37

11.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:38

That is one success.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:40

Yes, yes, yes.

SPEAKER_06 1:01:42

Uh our wolf guy is down. So that is gonna be Tamson. Uh as it goes into Tamson's turn, uh is not using a is not is not using a legendary action, but um he looks at the people that are down and he goes, Any, meeny, miny, points at Tamson. No, you're next, buddy. Don't you worry. And then looks at Val and just says, and then you can share your name, right?

SPEAKER_04 1:02:11

She's too stunned to speak.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:13

Tamson is going to use up his last spell slot.

SPEAKER_07 1:02:17

Woo!

SPEAKER_06 1:02:18

He's gonna cast fireball.

SPEAKER_07 1:02:22

Let's go.

SPEAKER_06 1:02:23

And because of Elemental Bane, rolls an additional d6. Or 10 d6. Nice. Elemental Bane was two d6 per turn. Uh yes, once per turn if it's that specific type of damage, um, which is why he chose fire because he has a fireball. That's his last one. I see, I see, I see. So he was future casting. He was vision boarding. Fawn is gonna do a deck saving throw. Rolls an 11. Oh. Is gonna use up his only legendary resistance. No! Uh he's not as stacked up with legendary resistances as others. Does that just like give him a pass? An automatic success. Yeah. That one that one's a limited pool, just everybody knows. Legendary actions reset on his turn. Um, but legendary resistances are his limited pool. Um but he is still gonna take Jesus T2 fire damage. Nice. Um, is he looking? He is looking hurt. He's not not hurt, but he is not on death storm. Yeah. And then as as he's able to resist most of the flame, but he I mean he takes on this incredibly strong fireball. Kind of shakes off. Uh you've ruined my nice clothes. Jerry, George, whatever your name is. Yeah, you're fucking gonna die next.

SPEAKER_04 1:03:56

It's spicy.

SPEAKER_07 1:03:59

That's how you know you got it when they start swearing.

SPEAKER_05 1:04:01

It's not as calm as it used to, and then they've lost it.

SPEAKER_07 1:04:06

The battle is ours.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:07

Why is he hotter now?

SPEAKER_06 1:04:10

At this point, uh full mid is just showing at this point.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:18

Am I sweating because of the fireball, or am I dying? I don't know.

SPEAKER_06 1:04:23

Um that is going to be valid.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:27

How far is Buka from me?

SPEAKER_06 1:04:32

30 feet. But you have movement.

SPEAKER_04 1:04:38

I know I have movement, but is it better to just attack him and then just hope for the best and get more damage off of him or try to get someone back up so he can just kill us?

SPEAKER_06 1:04:47

There's honestly, like I'm gonna have to be a little bit.

SPEAKER_07 1:04:51

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:04:51

As your friend, there's benefits to both. I mean, it seems sometimes futile to just kind of keep bringing people up that are going down, but uh it still takes actions for him to do this.

SPEAKER_06 1:11:39

How many turns away she was?

SPEAKER_04 1:11:41

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:11:42

I was seeing how many rounds away she was. Nice. She lands close to you guys. She's somewhere uh I'd say in between where Buka and Val are and where Tamson and Fawn are. Obviously at this point, she's further away. She's about 45 feet away from uh from Pierce, but is going to look at you guys and just says, I'm sorry that I I took so long. You've been looks over Pierce. I'm sorry that I took so long. I'll we'll get this cleared away, but we have to get to the moon mother soon. Something's happening.

SPEAKER_04 1:12:34

Yes.

SPEAKER_06 1:12:35

At this point, Fawn turns around and just says Val, Buka, and Pierce.

unknown 1:12:43

Good. Right.

SPEAKER_06 1:12:46

And then at this point, Lova Lova looks around and says, I I I feel like I might have walked into something where we weren't supposed to think.

SPEAKER_04 1:12:53

It's fine.

SPEAKER_06 1:12:54

My apologies.

SPEAKER_07 1:12:55

It was it was a big will they won't they moment for all of us.

SPEAKER_06 1:12:58

I again I apologize. It's okay. It's okay for the two that are closest. Go ahead and give me perception checks.

SPEAKER_07 1:13:08

Perception. Nope. Hey, I got a nine.

SPEAKER_06 1:13:16

Nine and uh 19. 19. Lova is looking hurt. You could tell at this point. Part of it is, I mean, it's still dark, right? Like it's like that moment where even though the sun is coming out, it almost feels darker for you know, like a weird five or ten minutes early in the morning. Um but as uh Val, as you look at her, you could tell at this point she has a massive gash like on one of her lips, a black eye, and she seems to kind of be clutching her left arm kind of close. Like she's up. She, like, even from the movement and everything, you could tell that she's not on death's door, but you could tell that she is her. Yeah, that is gonna be Tamson. Uh Tamson is gonna use up half his movement. Only thing he can do are cantrips right now, but he's gonna cast a firebolt. Yeah. Oh, what's bolding? It lets his face get take two d6 for his turn. It's not every time. It has to be specifically fire damage. So elemental bane is you will you choose like a type of damage, a fire like of elemental damage, and then when you get hit with that once per turn, it adds an additional two d6.

SPEAKER_05 1:14:28

That's why he chose fire because he has a fireball. Yeah, the fireball and he has a cantrip that's fired.

SPEAKER_07 1:14:34

Yeah, yeah. I thought it was at the at the start of his turn, he just takes another two d6. No, no, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_05 1:14:39

Um that's what it's done at first.

SPEAKER_06 1:14:42

But he's gonna take 1d10 plus 2d6. Heck yeah.

SPEAKER_05 1:14:47

That's still pretty.

SPEAKER_06 1:14:48

That's still pretty for a cantrip. I'll put it up, I'll put it up. Yeah, it lasts a minute, so it's one of those things where it's nice and it's not concentration, so it's super, super nice. Uh Fawn takes an additional 10 points of fire damage. Yes. Um, he's gonna. He do not like that. He knows he's healed up, but he's gonna use up a legendary action, y'all. He's gonna hit him with three eldridge blasts. A miss on the first one, hit on the second one, a hit on the third. So two hits for only points of force damage. Uh almost like truly it feels just like getting hit, like right in like the kidney. Uh Tamson is uh looking pretty hurt again. Uh that is going to be uh Val.

SPEAKER_04 1:15:57

Let's take a shot at Mr. Fawn once more. I don't have any spells left. Buka, you can heal it Pierce, right?

unknown 1:16:08

Yes.

SPEAKER_05 1:16:09

SPEAKER_06 1:16:53

Oh yeah. He is looking pretty hurt.

SPEAKER_04 1:16:56

Good. My name's not Val.

SPEAKER_07 1:16:59

I've been pretty hurt for a while.

SPEAKER_06 1:17:03

You got you got a big age people. That is going to be Fawn's turn. Um. And he is going to uh what does he want to do? Um he looks at you guys and just says there are things that need to be done. And he is gonna cast uh invisibility on himself. It is an at will eldritch ability. Interesting. And then that is gonna be his turn. That is gonna be Pierce with Buka on deck.

SPEAKER_05 1:18:06

I mean, is with invisibility, is there any way for me to even attack?

SPEAKER_06 1:18:10

From the I mean you're at this point too, you're 60 feet away. Right.

SPEAKER_05 1:18:14

I was about that. I was gonna ask because technically I hit the druid with a javelin earlier. Would the javelin be nearby? 100%. Yeah, you're you're literally right there. Yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:18:25

I mean if you want to tempt it. Can I still even get a disadvantage? It's yeah, it'd be with disadvantage. So it's up to you.

SPEAKER_05 1:18:39

Uh yeah, I'll try anyways. I'll like take that like second to look around and find the javelin that I hit the druid with earlier. Probably like laying on the ground, pick it up, and that's the way it's like.

SPEAKER_04 1:18:50

There's bows in or arrows.

SPEAKER_05 1:18:55

I don't have a bow.

SPEAKER_04 1:18:56

No, but no, he has arrows in him, technically. Yeah. Or do those also go invisible?

SPEAKER_06 1:19:02

Yes. Yeah, everything that yeah, it's not just the arrows.

SPEAKER_05 1:19:06

Those go invisible too, so I am gonna count this also.

SPEAKER_06 1:19:09

I don't know what you end up rolling, but I'll I'll count this as like three-fourths cover, so it adds like a little bit more to his AC. Because you're also 60 feet away, just chucking. Yeah, and I I think I missed anyways because I got a 14. Yeah. You end up throwing it. But you can start closing the distance with you and your friends if you'd like.

SPEAKER_05 1:19:25

Yeah, I mean I'll use I'll use 30 feet of movement. Cool. Hell yeah. Um, that is gonna be Booka.

SPEAKER_00 1:19:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:19:37

Okay. Sweet. Is there is there a bunch of dirt and dust everywhere? Yes, from the combat. From the combat? Great.

SPEAKER_06 1:19:52

You are more than welcome to try to do a perception check if you would like to.

SPEAKER_07 1:19:55

Okay, great. I'd love, I'd love to like run towards where I last saw him, but like be kicking up as much dirt as I can with like my tail and and my and my feet as I'm running.

SPEAKER_06 1:20:06

Yeah. Go ahead. Uh you're just rolling it with disadvantage, but perception.

SPEAKER_07 1:20:11

Correct.

unknown 1:20:12

Okay.

SPEAKER_07 1:20:14

Okay. First one's an 18. Okay. Next one's a 20 a 24.

SPEAKER_06 1:20:23

So 18. You notice a bit, you have like a general idea of where he is. I do?

SPEAKER_07 1:20:30

I swing at him with my right gear.

SPEAKER_06 1:20:32

Uh it's still with disadvantage, but.

SPEAKER_07 1:20:34

Right. Yeah, go ahead and roll. Well, first attack's not gonna do it. So I'm gonna say the second one probably won't do it. Yeah, well, that was my first attack. My second attack. Uh 21. And four. Or a 16. 16 hits. It doesn't. Yes! Okay. I'm gonna swing at him with my rapier. Eight plus five, thirteen.

SPEAKER_06 1:21:05

SPEAKER_00 1:21:07

Yeah. I I stab him with my knife. I have two weapon fighting.

SPEAKER_06 1:21:14

Go for it. Come here. Rachel! No! Dang it. I got a nine. That one's a miss. But you do break him out of his invisibility.

SPEAKER_07 1:21:27

I say hey. Come here often.

SPEAKER_06 1:21:32

He looks at you with such malice in his eyes. He is not a big fan of you right now, just says you could have all just walked away from this, but you chose to drag this on. The results are now up to you. And he is going to give a quick bow. He is before Lova can go, he is going to move his hex blade curse to you. Ew. And then he's gonna use his legendary action. Or actually, he can't move his hex blade just yet. I'm gonna play this by the rules. You are very, very lucky because it's not his turn. He's using a legendary action right now.

SPEAKER_07 1:22:13

Oh, it's a bonus action to move the hex blade curse?

SPEAKER_06 1:22:15

Correct. Yeah. So I'm gonna I will I will we're gonna do this fair. But he is gonna cast Eldridge Blast on you. No, he's not. 27 for the first hit. Barely. 16 or 15 for the second hit. Miss. And then third one is 21 to hit. Yeah. 15 points of damage from the first hit. Okay, that puts me out. And he is going to do another 13 damage, which means you have one automatic death save failure. Great.

SPEAKER_07 1:22:49

This is a separate attack.

SPEAKER_06 1:22:50

Separate attack.

SPEAKER_07 1:22:51

I ragdoll.

SPEAKER_06 1:22:53

Again.

SPEAKER_04 1:22:55

On not on purpose this time.

SPEAKER_06 1:22:58

He looks over because it's about to be Lova's turn and just says, Come after me. Or heal him. Lova looks at you guys, unsure of what she should do.

SPEAKER_04 1:23:10

We'll take care of him. It's okay.

SPEAKER_06 1:23:12

Are you sure are you sure?

SPEAKER_04 1:23:14

I have potions.

SPEAKER_06 1:23:17

SPEAKER_07 1:23:32

He's still susceptible to fire.

SPEAKER_06 1:23:42

She's gonna cast a third level flame arrow. And then he is going to actually no, no, she's not. She's not gonna do that. She's gonna do a because it would do damage, but this is this would probably do more damage. Um yeah, she's gonna cast no because no, flame arrows are for an for actual like projectiles. Oh because you could crash that on Val. Oh for when she shoots.

SPEAKER_04 1:24:42

Alright, that was ugly.

SPEAKER_06 1:24:45

She's gonna cast Oh, she'll cast Earth Tremor. Ooh, does a pretty good amount of damage, does 14 damage. Nice. And then it all becomes difficult terrain around him.

SPEAKER_07 1:25:04

Uh does Boogie get hit by it? Hmm. So I take another failure.

SPEAKER_06 1:25:13

Uh well he he was at a distance already. Um because you weren't right by him. Because he did LSD. Oh, he moved. Yeah, yeah. Oh, he moved. Okay. No, yeah, so you're good, you're good. Yeah, yeah, I think that's the best you can do for right now. He is going to use up two legendary actions, fall into shadow, uh, and retreats another 60 feet away.

SPEAKER_05 1:25:40

So now is he 30 feet behind me since I was running towards him? He's about 30 feet behind you.

SPEAKER_06 1:25:47

Hey. Yeah. Towards the tree. Yeah. Um that is gonna be Tamson. That's an eight. That's a failure. I have potions on my body. That's gonna be Val with Fawn on deck.

SPEAKER_04 1:26:12

How far is Buka from me?

SPEAKER_06 1:26:15

SPEAKER_06 1:28:50

Fawn Fawn is too proud, too much too prideful. Instead of using a dash action, he's gonna use up his action.

SPEAKER_05 1:28:59

Yeah, he would have moved for sure if he used his action. Book could probably be the only one that maybe could catch up to it.

SPEAKER_06 1:29:06

And well then feline agility also is not like a forever.

SPEAKER_07 1:29:11

I've already spent the turn not moving, so I get it back.

SPEAKER_06 1:31:58

Thanks. You're welcome. Buka and Pierce, you guys are next to each other. And then honestly, at this point it's 60 feet away. Val and Tamson, you guys are together as you went and gave them a potion. Lova is in between you guys. She's a little bit closer to where Tamson and Val currently are. Is going to we're gonna go kind of like pseudo in and out of initiative right now. Because at this point, I don't think anybody has the capacity to reach him.

SPEAKER_04 1:32:37

How far is he?

SPEAKER_06 1:32:39

Not really. He's about 120 feet away from me, guys.

SPEAKER_04 1:32:42

I can hit him with my longbow.

SPEAKER_06 1:32:45

It is ass. It is ass. Well, it's not your turn. I mean, you could get one hit, but after that, just distance-wise with dash actions and stuff. I don't think you'd be able to. Um so we can go back to your turn then. So if that's the case, Lova is gonna hold off an action and tells you guys we'll go after him, but everyone gather on me. We'll I'll heal us up a little bit before we hit the turn.

SPEAKER_04 1:33:11

Let me try to hit him one last time.

SPEAKER_06 1:33:17

Again, not your turn. Uh and then that's gonna be Tamson. Um we're gonna do this by the book, okay? Uh goes to Lova. Uh and then go ahead, Val, take your shot.

SPEAKER_04 1:33:32

Two shots, actually. Thanks. Thanks.

SPEAKER_05 1:33:36

Technically, she can take shots up to 600 feet, but this is we can play that out if you guys want.

SPEAKER_04 1:33:44

That's so far. Wait, I didn't mean to I didn't ignore that one.

SPEAKER_07 1:33:48

Uh what is happening on my screen right now?

SPEAKER_04 1:33:50

Nothing. Uh 12, 18 points of piercing damage for the first one because the 17 does hit, right?

SPEAKER_07 1:33:55

Yes.

SPEAKER_04 1:33:57

Great. And then an 18 hits.

SPEAKER_06 1:34:02

18 does hit. Plus 11 to her longbow.

SPEAKER_04 1:34:05

I know.

SPEAKER_06 1:34:09

No.

SPEAKER_04 1:34:10

Six points of piercing.

SPEAKER_05 1:34:12

Oh yeah. Are you doing hunters?

SPEAKER_04 1:34:15

That's for running away, bitch!

SPEAKER_05 1:34:18

Did you do hunters, Mark?

SPEAKER_04 1:34:20

Yes.

SPEAKER_05 1:34:20

Yeah. Any movement.

SPEAKER_04 1:34:23

Towards low.

SPEAKER_06 1:34:24

You should. Yeah, there you go. That is gonna be Fawn. Fawn uses dash action another 60 feet. That is gonna be pierced with Buka on deck. I move to Lova. Cool. Buka. Yeah, I do that too. We'll we'll start making our way. And again, we're still gonna stay somewhat in initiative, but at this point, Fawn is clearly making, but you guys can see him making his way towards towards the tree. Um, but she's gonna cast her final fifth level spell. Mask healing. And he's gonna cast mask cure wounds. Your wounds. That's why we have to. That's why she needed everyone close by. Everyone gets healed up for 25 points of healing.

SPEAKER_00 1:35:12

Yes. I feel invigorated.

SPEAKER_04 1:35:24

I would like to drink my last potion too.

SPEAKER_05 1:35:27

Cool. Yeah, I'm gonna drink both of mine. Do I need to roll for them or because we're kind of out of it? If you're taking actions, you're fine.

unknown 1:35:34

Okay.

SPEAKER_06 1:35:37

So 10. Cool. Go ahead and add that. We'll say, we'll say cinematically, you guys start making your way towards the tree. Lova looks at you all and says, just what what happened when what happened in your fight?

SPEAKER_05 1:35:52

Well, we we lost some of our men, but we I think actually took out, except for a few soldiers that got away into the city. There's nobody, no enemies left from our side.

SPEAKER_07 1:36:04

As far as we can tell, I think that was the last shapeshifter from their force.

SPEAKER_05 1:36:10

Yeah. They were just good soldiers. So the people that got in are not are not gonna be like formidable.

SPEAKER_06 1:36:14

We we had something similar. They just there was so many of them. But I I sensed they're already at the moon mother tree. We need to we need to hurry. Lake and Talon are starting to make sweeps through the city with some other men, but but I saw I was heading towards the moon mother tree, but I couldn't I saw one of you down and I I couldn't just let you all just die.

SPEAKER_03 1:36:33

Thank you.

SPEAKER_06 1:36:36

You guys start to make your way towards the tree. Is there anything you guys would like to do in these like seconds as you guys are getting to the tree? No.

SPEAKER_05 1:36:47

I don't think so. If there's a javelin anywhere on our way, I'd pick it up. Yeah, yeah, I'll take you and get two.

SPEAKER_06 1:36:57

I'm just strapping to my back like I have them. Everyone was able to get some a little bit of healing, obviously. Does anybody have any like potions left? No, I have I have one.

SPEAKER_05 1:37:14

Oh, I do have one. I didn't know I had three total. I mean, technically I could drink another one. It's it's up to you guys. I just want to give you guys an option before you no, I'm I'm I'm full. Okay. I'm I'm gonna drink my last one because I thought I was out, but no, yeah.

SPEAKER_06 1:37:36

Like I said, I want to give you guys you guys don't feel this is not DM Renee saying like you should wink wink do it. I was just I want to give everybody an option before they I'm glad you said something because I I thought I only had two. Very cool. You guys start to head towards the moon mother tree. There is a part of the tree, like from the direction that you guys are coming in, that you can see that the grove, because you guys are heading east to west. There's a portion where you can see that the grove is to the north. Um, and it looks, at least from your perspective, it looks unscathed, closer to the south, which is where you guys had first gathered and met Lova when Tamson had brought you in. You can see that the entire building that was there at this point has fully burned to the ground. And the thing that you hadn't seen, because it was behind another room, um, some of the infrastructure is still there. Like I said, it seems to have been like part of the tree itself that was gathered at the at the base of the Moon Mother tree. So the majority of it is still there as far as the infrastructure or the base of it. The skeleton of this building is still there. Um, but you guys can see that most of it is destroyed. Whatever top floors it had have been fully burned away and destroyed, and you see a massive anol as two massive roots gather up, and you can see an entrance into the moon mother tree itself. Uh she looks at you and says, They're in they're inside, and she leads you guys in. Uh as you guys make your way in, go ahead and give them perception checks.

SPEAKER_02 1:39:21

Perception. I got a 12.

SPEAKER_06 1:39:27

15.

SPEAKER_01 1:39:29

15.

SPEAKER_06 1:39:31

With a 12, Pierce, what are you looking for? Uh, or what would be the first thing that you start to like as you enter this uh space within the tree itself? Like, what's the first thing you think you would look like look for with a 12?

SPEAKER_05 1:39:41

Uh I like enemy purchase fighters, probably more specifically uh fawn and then uh any other like crystal talon uh members that we've like seen before, if if they're around.

SPEAKER_06 1:39:54

You immediately realize that you are uh kind of in a maze. There is wildlife within the tree itself. The amount of flora is wild. Like as you look up, you cannot even begin to see. As you realize that a large portion of the uh inside is kind of hollowed away. Um, and so as you look up, there is just darkness and blackness as it extends for hundreds of feet up. As you look directly ahead, you don't see any enemies, uh, but you do notice these massive like trees and hedges uh that do form uh kind of a path. Um you don't exactly know how winding or not it is, but in this immediate spot, you don't see any enemies. Um assuming we're like following, we're all following Lova. Yes. Um Lova does at this point you guys can tell she knows exactly the way through. Um with a 15, what are Buka and Val looking for? I want to see how the tree is reacting to its unwelcomed company with a 15, you it's it's uh light and it's very subtle in how it's doing it, but you realize that these again massive hedges and trees that form like a pathway in are shifting and shaking, like almost on like a fist in anger, just uh, but you hear that rustling. Uh, what is Buka looking for?

SPEAKER_07 1:41:21

I think as we're running, Buka's hand is on his sheath from Daniel, and looking at this magical tree, it just kind of reminds him of Daniel and is trying to sense if there's if the moon mother tree is as alive as Daniel felt when we saw him, or if anything is like if if it feels wrong.

SPEAKER_06 1:41:48

As you are looking, your like wooden scabbard, the sheath of it, uh is glowing. Not bright, not incredibly brightly, but just this this small glow. There are orcs around. There are orcs around. Uh uh, but it does not in the same way that Daniel felt, but it does feel alive. Does she feel okay? You don't think so. Oh no. You start to make your way through, you guys realize that you would have gotten lost almost immediately as you are entering this space. The light inside is like it's incredibly dark in there. Like the only thing that actually provides any form of light inside is you realize there's along the walls of the tree itself, uh, there does seem to be a combination of like moss that is bioluminescent, as well as all over like the shrubbery, there are different kinds of like bioluminescent animals. You notice like fireflies and similar creatures, but you also notice like beetles and like smaller like insects that their uh like chitin like shell seems to be glowing as well. But there's enough of them that it does cast a glow as you're going. So it's not incredibly bright in there. Uh Lova starts leading you guys in, and there's a point where you can feel like the franticness in her movements, but she seems sure of where she's guiding you. She eventually uh gets you guys to a point where you make your way out of the this maze of some type, and you realize you are closer to the like the back wall of the tree itself. As you guys go there, go ahead and give me uh investigation or perception checks. Yeah, perception 24 13 16 investigation with a 24 puka you go and I think you're immediately uh realizing that uh there's this portion of what is like the back wall, it's it's part of the trunk that seems to be closer to uh the core of what the tree is, as it's this portion of it that extends all the way up. And it more than any other part of it, like the tree, the the leaves from outside of the tree had been glowing. Um, and inside, uh again, like some of the animals and the moss seem to be glowing. Um kind of like the same ethereal blue that the leaves do. As you're looking at this portion of the wall, this one seems to be glowing kind of from like from within itself. Um you notice that there's like a bit of a glow coming that as you follow and your eyes track down, the two things you see with your check is uh you see a uh doorway carved from this like golden wood of the tree, and then standing by this doorway is uh Fawn, who you've been fighting at this point, you could tell is hurt, and a taller individual. Can't see his face, giant antler uh horns that are part of like a helm, as you realize that even though you can't see his face, Kavino is standing about 60 feet away from you guys.

SPEAKER_02 1:45:26

Hey kiddos. He sees us running towards him. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:45:34

Is Lova stopping or is she still running?

SPEAKER_06 1:45:37

She is stopping. I think she recognizes him. She has a trouble with him.

SPEAKER_02 1:45:53

Why are you doing this? Because all things must come to an end. I'm just so tired. And I just simply want to rest.

SPEAKER_01 1:46:24

And that's great. But you're gonna end everyone else's lives and cause as much destruction just so you can rest.

SPEAKER_02 1:46:37

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 1:46:38

Yeah. How selfish.

SPEAKER_06 1:46:43

I was selfless for a long time. Abuka, with that earlier check as well, as he's talking next to him, he is kind of covering it with his body, but you do notice a tap on the wall that is uh drawing out this like golden liquid from the tree as it's landing like in a small uh like container of some type. It seems uh kind of like a clay container uh of some type, and it's starting to fill it up. Can I I can see the container? Uh briefly, yeah. You like in his body is kind of covering most of it, but it like in him turning, you were able to like see that.

SPEAKER_02 1:47:28

Can I can I take a shot at it?

SPEAKER_01 1:47:35

Can I take a shot at it?

SPEAKER_02 1:47:37

Are you gonna attempt to uh take a shot?

SPEAKER_01 1:47:41

Do I know?

SPEAKER_02 1:47:51

What what what good is this gonna do without the rock the rock feather? I have nothing but time that's the problem, Google. I have nothing but time what about your friends? What about what about us? Was did your time feel wasted with us? There is a price that must be paid. And just remember that I'm paying the price as well.

SPEAKER_06 1:48:50

Like he kind of gets this like faraway look and just says, You cannot even begin to comprehend what it takes to keep my sanity in these moments.

SPEAKER_01 1:49:08

A sane person would sacrifice that to save so many lives just so you can finally be with your love.

SPEAKER_02 1:49:20

As you say that, his eyes glaze over. And he says, I would strike one vowel. I would try it very carefully.

SPEAKER_06 1:49:37

As you guys see, this fawn is kind of like like Fawn's I'm still a formidable like individual. Clearly, you guys have been fighting him. Um there is a point where like he almost seems to like cower. Um the shadows around him, instead of like spreading out, they seem to like retract into himself almost. Like the shadows get smaller towards Fawn.

SPEAKER_02 1:50:03

I understand that you feel like you have to do this.

SPEAKER_07 1:50:10

I hope you know that we have to we have to try to stop you. And I take a shot at the container.

SPEAKER_06 1:50:18

Using a ready to action. I need everybody to roll a DC22 wisdom saving throw.

SPEAKER_05 1:50:32

Wisdom? Yeah. If I rolled a nat 20, would you let me pass? Because it still wouldn't be a 22.

SPEAKER_06 1:50:40

If you roll a nat 20, Murp. Nope. I got seven.

SPEAKER_01 1:50:47

I got a five.

unknown 1:50:49

Cool.

SPEAKER_06 1:50:50

Using his ready to action. Uh, you guys had never seen him use magic. But there is a moment where his at this point he looks more when you guys first met him, more he was more monk-like, more bard-ish. As you guys are looking at him, fully clad in like like armor, uh, including like the helm, only his eyes visible and part of his like his nose and his mouth. But he looks at you guys and lifts his hand up and then flicks. You will all immediately feel your feet lift off the ground as you get pulled into the doorway that he is standing by. Uh as that's happening, you guys also see Fawn's feet rise up as he also gets chucked into the doorway. Oh, as this is happening, this is like made you guys just physically getting pulled. Um just says, Maybe you can make yourself useful in there. We'll see each other one day. And you guys are transported to what looks like just like the actual door frame. As you guys start to approach, same kind of glow that was coming from like the rest of the like the back wall, basically. Um you guys are in sunlight and a grassy field.

SPEAKER_07 1:52:13

With as we pass the with fun. Was the tap in the doorway? It was next to it. Okay, so we're not flying close to it.

SPEAKER_06 1:52:24

Dang it. No, because it that one like it's like the doorway, and then it seems to be like on the actual wall itself. Yeah, yeah. But I appreciate the hustle. Thank you. As you make your way through, your eyes go bright. Everyone, give me perception or investigation in this moment.

SPEAKER_04 1:52:41

While this is happening, I'm like, huh. Looks like your boss sent you away too.

SPEAKER_07 1:52:47

Uh nah, 20 for investigation. Cool.

SPEAKER_06 1:52:50

22 perception, 27 perception, phenomenal roles across the board. You guys see no doorway but the portal that has formed as it starts to just gather small. You guys got thrown 80 feet through uh uh the doorway. You look for a second, and you can hear his voice as it starts to get kind of fuzzy, almost like bad signal on like a radio, as he looks at you all and just says, Maybe we can work together. Briefly looks at Fawn and just says, Find the leaf. And the portal just fades away. You guys look around. Uh there are trees, you're in the middle of like a field, you seem to be close to like a forest. Everything around you seems to stretch forever. It's like reality is being pulled through silk, it almost feels smooth everywhere you look. The air is warm and cold. Uh sunlight is like drifting through the leaves of the trees close to you guys. It looks like gold with a nat 20 check up here. So you look at it, you could swear that the light coming through is physical. Like you could just grab it. Grab it. Um, there is a moment where you are in this unknown space, it's middle of the day, and you hear a voice behind you says, Oh no. As Fawn seems concerned and confused as to what just happened. And that is where we're gonna end. Lova's not with you guys. Lova's not with you guys, Tamson is not with you guys, but that is going to end our arc. No.

SPEAKER_02 1:54:56

I'm uh build up for women. Well, now we're in this weird place.

SPEAKER_05 1:55:03

Yeah, swinging it from on the first chance I get it. Thank you.

SPEAKER_04 1:55:08

Let him talk first.
