The party delves deeper into the Tomb of Damara to locate and dispatch Bone Gnasher. In their exploration they find rare creatures and odd items that lead them to the door requiring the key of the Silverstars. In a harrowing fight against the tomb's namesake, two of our party cling desperately to life as the source of Damara's power, and possibly their own, is revealed.

SPEAKER_19

Thanks so much for joining us for episode 10 of our Dale Lands Campaign. Last episode, our players began as they made their way towards the tomb of Demara, a uh what they now know as a um kind of very old hero. Uh sort of. They were also a necromancer, uh, but they uh reside in this ruined castle that has been overrun by Boneasher, who they learned is a uh sort of a spectre of a old ogre uh that was kind of the archrival of Damara. Um Boneasher has assembled somewhat of an army uh of hobgoblins. Uh you've fought a couple of undead as well. Uh there's likely more further in this tomb as you travel through, but your quest was to rescue the Silver Star family, which you successfully did through combat with these hobgoblins. On a Nat 20, at the very beginning of the episode, Val was able to get some information about this young girl uh that was trying to hide something. She was it then became clear that she was hiding a key, a sort of magical key, probably to unlock the orb of Demara, which is this seemingly powerful magical object that O Nasher has awoken and now desires but cannot get. They the hobgoblins were looking for the key, right? The hobgoblins were trying to get the key, but all of the silver stars uh were like, no, we don't have it. Unbeknownst to them, the little girl did, in fact, have it. Uh seemingly her grandmother gave it to her and told her, Don't let anyone else have this. But she trusts you guys enough to keep it safe while they are in in the other room guarded by this giant frog that you befriended.

unknown

Did we?

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. Sure.

SPEAKER_03

He's helping. He's our friend.

SPEAKER_19

Uh but you have slayed a couple hobgoblins and rescued the Silver Star family, promising to take out Bone Nasher before you return them to their homes. As uh you usher the family into the safe room that you have already scouted out every possible entrance and exit, killed whatever may attack them and made sure that they are safe in this room. You then follow a long hallway through this tomb towards Bone Nasher's Den. So if you wanna would like to move your miniatures where where you want to be situated for this fight, uh what just happened to you?

SPEAKER_03

Oh Leo.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

How long have we been fighting? Uh I cast Hunter's Mark last time. So when did you cast it?

SPEAKER_19

During the fight.

SPEAKER_04

During this fight to one of them big Jones, and it lasts for an hour.

SPEAKER_19

Oh, it's definitely not been an hour. I'd say it's probably been 15 minutes. So you can bonus action between the just move the target instead of having to cast it again.

SPEAKER_03

So you're you're you're like divine sense or whatever, and then my story form is gone now. Because it's been 10 minutes. Yes. Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Uh but you guys were able to pick up on uh where Boneasher is before that went out. But uh you needed to continue uh ushering this family to safety and reassuring them.

SPEAKER_02

Bone Asher stinks like shit, who would I guess?

SPEAKER_10

Haj and Orion should probably stay outside of the door.

SPEAKER_20

Joanna as well, maybe, and peek in, shoot your bows, and duck out, and Val and I will be on the front lines.

SPEAKER_08

I can try and flashbang him again. I'll do the I'll do the thing. Yes. And her hand will start low. As long as you stay behind the wall. Yes. I will go wherever I'm needed to get this done. She just put armor on. Yeah, see? Val told me how to use it. Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_20

Looks too big on you. She's walking around like a box.

SPEAKER_04

It was my old armor. Sorry.

SPEAKER_02

She was 14. Yeah.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, it's great. It's like under her Victorian shit, so she's like, Ashley was just like clink clinging. Free gentle clicking this.

SPEAKER_03

How tall is about?

SPEAKER_06

Taller than me. Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_06

That's my go-to. Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

I think you said like 5'10. I feel like everyone.

SPEAKER_06

You're an inch taller than me. Something like that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. I'm pop tan.

SPEAKER_10

In real life. He is six foot eight.

SPEAKER_02

Oh.

SPEAKER_15

Off by an inch.

SPEAKER_10

Because I didn't want to do it.

SPEAKER_15

That boy need to stop adventuring and get into those.

SPEAKER_10

I was like, uh six foot nine's too much. 69. 6'7. I'm not doing that.

SPEAKER_04

We're gonna go six foot eight. Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Um Ryan, though.

SPEAKER_04

He's six foot.

SPEAKER_19

All right. You do uh head down the hallway and you hear the gnashing of bones.

SPEAKER_13

Oh, wow, he said the name!

SPEAKER_19

And some growling.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, make a perception check, please. Oh nobody knows that.

SPEAKER_10

I don't. I'm closing my eyes. I don't. I rolled a two.

SPEAKER_03

You said perception?

SPEAKER_08

14. Nice. Uh 12. Niner.

SPEAKER_19

Four. You rolled a fourteen.

SPEAKER_08

Yes.

SPEAKER_19

Okay. On the fourteen, as you slowly walk down the hallway and hear these uh this gnashing on bones, you recognize it as not one beast, but two. And you recognize these beasts as wolves.

SPEAKER_03

Easy peasy wolves. Ahead.

SPEAKER_16

Shouldn't be too much trouble.

SPEAKER_19

What would you like to do?

SPEAKER_14

Kill wolves.

SPEAKER_19

Bust it down, bust that door down. You can hear that the door is open.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. I'm gonna cast my uh story form.

SPEAKER_19

It is loud enough that you can recognize that.

SPEAKER_03

Actually, Bone Nash isn't here.

SPEAKER_19

Uh it certainly seems so. Okay.

SPEAKER_03

I I'm gonna hold that until I see him.

SPEAKER_19

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Is it on the next turn?

SPEAKER_19

Just yeah, just trigger it whenever you fire. Yeah. Um I think I might go in Guns of Blazing if that's okay. Just rush around the corner.

SPEAKER_02

I fucking go for it.

SPEAKER_20

Yeah, if we're going for it. Alright, so his padded feet. Uh go along and bust through the door with a roar.

SPEAKER_19

Alright. And actually, I'm gonna roll a perception check for the wolves to see if they are surprised. They are surprised. Uh they are too focused on gnawing on these bones. Um they look up and see this lion ravaging through this door uh and into the room. As you go into the room, you obviously see two wolves, but you also see uh on the bed, uh in this kind of ruined den, um you see a huge ogre skeleton lies half buried under rubble. Its skull split by a silvered blade. Interesting. But for now, no spectre. No spectre. Roll initiative.

SPEAKER_06

Suspicious. Suspicious indeed.

SPEAKER_19

Hell yeah. Oh, they have wolves have disadvantage because they were surprised. Fourteen for Ike.

SPEAKER_03

Slutty twenty. Ooh.

SPEAKER_06

Five.

SPEAKER_10

If you get in. If you come attack this one. Joe Wayne? I keep why they call you Joe. Uh yeah. And then we'll scoot over, take care of the other one real quick. Easy. They're not they're not strong.

SPEAKER_05

Easy.

SPEAKER_19

Okay. Um. Did you roll with advantage? I did, yes. Okay. Uh Ike, you run in there surprising these wolves, but Orion right behind uh is a bit quicker on the draw. You are up first.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. I will Mew move me like to the door. I have 35 feet of move there.

SPEAKER_14

20.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

And then I'm going to cast my um Starry Wisp.

SPEAKER_12

Okay. Starry Wisp.

SPEAKER_03

That kind of sucks, actually. I'm sorry. Yeah, that definitely hits for a 22. Uh that's going to be one damage.

SPEAKER_19

Alright, you fire at the one wolf, you just barely clip it as it's kneeled down, uh gnawing on these bones.

SPEAKER_03

Yep. Uh you move me back into that corner there.

SPEAKER_19

Joanna, Ike on deck.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_08

Um Carter, if I can have you also move me. And two, like, yeah.

SPEAKER_13

The wolf next to Ike. Um3.

SPEAKER_19

SPEAKER_10

Sigwood for him. Yeah, don't waste.

SPEAKER_08

One radiant damage.

SPEAKER_10

Oh shit!

SPEAKER_08

Great start. And then my last five, if you just shoot me backwards. Yeah, thank you.

SPEAKER_19

That's good. Uh intense fight. Tons of damage. Ike.

SPEAKER_10

She definitely runs up and goes, uh two runs. Uh those were not very good rolls. 14. Uh 14 hits. And oh! That is not a four, that's a fourteen on the die. So yeah. Nice. Both will hit four. Oh, that's fat.

SPEAKER_19

19 damage. Holy shit. Fuck yeah. Uh these were two attacks.

SPEAKER_12

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_19

Okay, what was the first one? Uh first one was uh eight damage. Okay. So you will you would have needed both.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah. Um I mean, or I could have done the I rolled them both at the same time, the damage die.

SPEAKER_19

One was an eight plus three, and one was a five. Well, you did just because you did also did say that you're attacking the one. Yeah. And the first one didn't matter. Uh but you do absolutely ravage this wolf that's already been hit by two uh small attacks. Uh you finish the job.

unknown

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_10

And can I walk? Uh no. I'll stay there so other people can get in. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

I think probably over you. Probably. Bow can go through you. Yeah, you can go through me.

SPEAKER_19

Alright. Uh next up is Bone Nasher. You see Rocky Wakey's from this rubble of bones uh that have been slightly disturbed as this combat has started. Uh you see a translucent ogre with a crushed skull, broken tusks, and a rib cage full of ghostly arrows. Uh he wields no physical weapon, but these long spectral claws. Big meaty claws. He steps in towards Ike's lion form.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, that's the scary guy.

SPEAKER_19

Uh AC is 16.

SPEAKER_02

That's a low oh, that's right then.

SPEAKER_19

A 14 is going to miss. You see these long spectra claws reach out from behind you and just manage to dodge out of the way. He growls.

SPEAKER_09

Who dares disturb me?

SPEAKER_19

And then uh floats through the wall.

SPEAKER_01

What? Hey, get back here. What? That direction. Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

And Hodge. Where did my bumps? Hodge, none the wiser, having been outside of this room for that whole uh thing. What would you like to do?

SPEAKER_01

Um jump into this corner.

SPEAKER_02

I thought I heard something. What was that?

SPEAKER_20

Bone lasher floated through the wall.

SPEAKER_01

Really?

SPEAKER_20

Uh I don't know how else to explain it.

SPEAKER_02

I I cannot follow.

SPEAKER_20

He's a spec he's an specter form. He has no physical form.

SPEAKER_02

Work with what you got. Uh I will firebolt the remaining wolf. Twelve. To hit.

SPEAKER_19

That hits. Yep.

SPEAKER_06

Weak. Is that I extend from wolf?

SPEAKER_20

Yes.

SPEAKER_14

Ooh, ten fire damage.

SPEAKER_20

Hey! Oh shit. I'll always remember your one fire damage. How do you want to do this?

SPEAKER_02

Um as he barks straight into the mouth.

SPEAKER_05

Hell yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_19

As he engulfs in flames, uh swallowing it and burning from the inside until he falls dead. Val, you are next. But there is no enemy to be seen.

SPEAKER_05

What the fuck is that creep?

unknown

Fuck.

SPEAKER_02

Uh.

SPEAKER_06

Uh, what do you think the likelihood of me kicking his bones around brings him back?

SPEAKER_18

Hey, asshole!

SPEAKER_08

Send it rock around! Something deep in my subconsciousness, that'll probably work.

SPEAKER_15

Alright, I'm gonna do it.

SPEAKER_06

Come in here. Step on his bones.

SPEAKER_14

We crush bones.

SPEAKER_06

Is this where he was, I'm assuming?

SPEAKER_10

Yes. He was on the bed. Stop.

SPEAKER_06

Um stop.

SPEAKER_10

One more monkey bouncing on the bed. What did I just say?

SPEAKER_06

Oh shit. Yeah, actually, I want to try to pull that shit out. After I stomp on his boots.

SPEAKER_14

Oh, the sword. Free action stomp on boots. Sword! I think it's too free.

SPEAKER_02

It's free object interaction? Unless it's hard to do it.

SPEAKER_06

No, no, no. The stomping is the free action. I will the yankin' as the I'll take the yankin' as the real action. That's okay.

SPEAKER_19

I'll take the yankin'.

SPEAKER_03

That's the real. Is Yankin' on in the free action?

SPEAKER_19

The the weapon is not here. There is not a silver blade lying in the rubble. It was the skull was just split. You can like see the resemblance of what was the weapon that was used. Oh, I thought you said it was latched in there. No. This its skull split by a silver blade. I see. Um throw his bones around.

SPEAKER_06

Uh yeah, there's really not much.

SPEAKER_19

You can take the dodge action if you'd like.

SPEAKER_06

Oh, as like a ready in action.

SPEAKER_19

Or ready in action for it to come back, yeah.

SPEAKER_06

Oh yeah, okay. Ready to split. Ready, yeah. A Linda attack.

SPEAKER_19

Alright. Linda. Can we get a bigger?

SPEAKER_03

My stars are now uh active.

SPEAKER_19

Okay, Orion, you are up.

SPEAKER_03

So my stars are now active.

SPEAKER_19

Um there is a tiny window that you could fire arrows or spells through.

SPEAKER_03

Great. Um, I will do that.

SPEAKER_19

Um, it is in the middle of the room.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. I got hell of speed.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Uh, Carter, can you move me into the middle of the room?

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. This is that window. Oh, he's just outside.

SPEAKER_05

Uh-oh.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. I thought he disappeared.

SPEAKER_05

We can't.

SPEAKER_19

Um, he's a specter in corporeal movement. Is there a window there? There is a window, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Luminous arrow. I'm using my uh Dallas gave me inspiration because I rolled six Nat 20s in a row last week. Yeah, yeah, just yeah, just by chance.

SPEAKER_02

You got rewarded for nat twice.

SPEAKER_07

Uh 14 hits. Then he rolled on my dice in two dice.

SPEAKER_19

I rolled all three of her nat twenties in a row and I got 20s left. Uh what type of damage is that?

SPEAKER_03

Uh radiance.

SPEAKER_19

No.

SPEAKER_03

Vulnerable?

SPEAKER_19

Not even then. No.

SPEAKER_03

What? Resistant?

SPEAKER_19

No.

unknown

Huh? Ha.

SPEAKER_03

Interesting. It don't do none? Oh my god.

SPEAKER_19

No, no, it does six.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. Sick. Cool. Uh that was.

SPEAKER_19

I was just seeing what type of damage it was just in case shit. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Um, that was my bonus action.

SPEAKER_19

Because he does have some resistances and.

SPEAKER_03

15 to hit.

SPEAKER_20

Hits.

SPEAKER_16

Oh, I got a hella movement speed.

SPEAKER_03

18. Radiant damage.

SPEAKER_19

Holy fuck. Damn. Uh very hurt as you fire a bolt and he turns.

SPEAKER_10

He's definitely on a second phase. He's what? Nothing.

SPEAKER_03

I guess.

SPEAKER_10

Mellet.

SPEAKER_19

Mm-hmm.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Back to where I was. Yeah, 40 feet. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_19

35?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I'm 35.

SPEAKER_19

Joanna.

SPEAKER_03

Oh wait.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_08

Move me where Orion just was. To the window. Yep.

SPEAKER_12

To the wall?

SPEAKER_08

Yep. I'm also gonna try and get it over here.

SPEAKER_12

Till the specters.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, you know what?

SPEAKER_12

Suck my balls.

SPEAKER_08

Sorry?

SPEAKER_12

I don't know.

SPEAKER_19

I was just continuing Carter saying.

SPEAKER_07

What's up with the lyrics on that? I didn't hear it.

SPEAKER_19

Well, it runs with sweat dripped down my balls. Sure it does. Sure it is.

SPEAKER_07

I didn't hear Carter, I only heard you.

SPEAKER_19

No, you said to the window, he said to the walls, and I said till the specter sucks my balls. That's pretty good.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, sket ski. Thank you, Becco, for the first highlight of the evening. Really put a nice little thing on that.

SPEAKER_11

Oh the ground.

SPEAKER_03

You bring such a light to a campaign. Uh 24 to hit.

SPEAKER_17

Damn.

SPEAKER_07

The magic of like sorry, what did you do? 24 to hit?

SPEAKER_17

Uh no, actually.

SPEAKER_05

Legendary resistance.

SPEAKER_17

No, it does hit.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_17

Dude, well, fuck us.

SPEAKER_03

Okay. 17.

SPEAKER_12

17, 17, 17.

SPEAKER_19

Uh, what kind of damage? I don't want to do this.

SPEAKER_07

Um Level three.

SPEAKER_02

Fucking radiant damage!

SPEAKER_07

She sees Orion do her move through the window and just kind of squeezes by everyone and just goes. Just puts her hand up to the window. Explodes.

SPEAKER_19

Uh, as as he sees you, uh he looks he looks at you and goes. Give me the key, you little! And then you shoot this radiant energy and that's rather or not. Immediately dispersed. His return from undeath has been ended.

SPEAKER_04

Nice.

SPEAKER_19

Very quickly by a lot of radiant damage. Holy fuck.

SPEAKER_04

I don't know what he was gonna say, but I thought it was gonna be nice.

SPEAKER_19

Was he resistant to like bludgeoning, piercing, slashing, lightning, thunder, cold, fire, acid, immune to poison, immune to necrotic. Did you oh did you half my damage?

SPEAKER_10

It was slashing.

SPEAKER_02

Did you even you never even hit him?

SPEAKER_10

You didn't hit him. Oh, I didn't hit him. That's right. Never mind.

SPEAKER_19

So a very easy part of the hole. Oh my god. Bone Nasher is dead.

SPEAKER_06

Cool. That bitch sucked. That's the power of God.

SPEAKER_19

A couple seconds pass, uh, and then you see kind of his uh his bones, his spectral form, uh part of him like returns through the window into his bones. Just to kind of like settle there, not to become reborn. But you hear a whisper. Anyone who is right next to so uh anyone who's in that room, I guess everyone but Orion would hear a gentle whisper.

SPEAKER_09

The wakes. Tamara hears you fools. You opened the grave for her. Great.

SPEAKER_05

Hell yeah. Well, that's not sure.

SPEAKER_02

Scatter his bones, or perhaps I could say you could take some from for your research, maybe. I mean, I'm I'm pretty worried about him reanimating.

SPEAKER_03

I mean, yeah, if you want to.

SPEAKER_02

Val, can you like smash his skull into a bunch of little bits?

SPEAKER_03

Yes.

SPEAKER_02

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

I'll also go and all this thing. I'll just lay like a bunch of uh.

SPEAKER_19

There you go, some bone meal for your spells.

SPEAKER_05

Do we grind it up?

SPEAKER_19

Um, uh a crude iron torque spills out, which is one of those uh sort of uh necklaces that's kind of like that.

SPEAKER_11

You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_19

Um torques, T-O-R-C. Interesting. Probably worth about 25 gold. Um and then a cracked old tusk carved with the silver star sigil. Interesting.

SPEAKER_14

Can I have that?

SPEAKER_19

Sure.

SPEAKER_10

Tusk. Like one of his tusks? Mm-hmm. What?

SPEAKER_09

Interesting.

SPEAKER_10

Why did he have the family sigil on his tusk?

SPEAKER_02

Perhaps enslaved by demonic.

SPEAKER_19

You can make an arcana or religion check if you'd like. Yeah, Luna.

SPEAKER_07

Nothing else.

SPEAKER_20

Twelve Arcana.

SPEAKER_07

Twelve. Religion.

SPEAKER_19

Um that's a fail on everyone. I will just say uh because you were sort of close, uh I'll just say that it's interesting that arch enemies would be buried in the same place, especially when it's nail labeled that it's Damara's tomb. Uh that's all I'll say, I guess. Um but now Bone Nasher and his pets have been slain very, very quickly by a uh religious power uh of the two of you. Um would you like to continue and possibly find that orb or would you like to return to the family and get them home safely?

SPEAKER_02

If we take a moment, I can detect magic on the tusk and uh the torque to see if they're magical, perhaps.

SPEAKER_05

Sure. I'll hand it to the floor.

SPEAKER_10

Well if you can find at least the area of where the orb is located in this.

SPEAKER_02

That would also be a benefit of having it up at last. For an hour, I believe.

SPEAKER_19

Uh what's the range on thirty feet?

SPEAKER_02

Yes. So I'll take ten minutes to actually cast detect magic.

SPEAKER_19

Um in the meantime, anyone can take their time to cast a spell as well. Uh if they'd like.

SPEAKER_13

Um How's everybody doing like part wise? Perfectly fine.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_19

It doesn't seem lost that uh it doesn't seem like there's magic on the tusk, but it as you take ten minutes to kind of study it, um it seems that it was something that Demara put on Bone Nasher's bones to inhibit it from returning. And clearly that magic uh with the detect magic, you notice that there is no magic, and obviously it returned. So either the magic wore off because it had been too long, or something uh something removed it. The orb. Perhaps the orbit is not magical either. Correct, just a crude uh ogre uh accessory.

SPEAKER_10

Well, I say we'd travel further into this tomb. I feel like there are secret doors and and tunnels around here.

SPEAKER_02

I would like to see the orb.

SPEAKER_13

I mean, yeah.

SPEAKER_10

I am sure you would.

SPEAKER_02

If it's necromantic, I won't touch it. Scout honor.

SPEAKER_07

Do you promise? Yes. And you're not gonna set it on fire.

SPEAKER_02

Huh? Then you're not going to put it in your bag. No. I will not. I'll leave the room first. I promise. I'm doing better. I'll be like, what do you mean leave the room first? What are you talking about? What?

SPEAKER_13

Leave the room first?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so you know.

SPEAKER_13

Did you what did you try?

SPEAKER_02

So I don't uh like uh, you know, do my silly hard stuff, the stuff that I do, you know.

SPEAKER_07

Very on serious hodge, and she's gonna like put her hand like very like disappointed bomb. Did you do something that I don't know about? No.

SPEAKER_10

No, he didn't.

SPEAKER_07

He's not looking at me, so I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_10

That is because he is looking for the best direction to start in.

SPEAKER_02

I'm sensing some horrible, nasty magical aura this way. This way, hard. Yes.

SPEAKER_03

She'll let it go, but that's probably weird. After you leave, Orion just says, you should consider getting a mask. It's easier to lie to people. Oh, you're right.

SPEAKER_02

I wonder if I could just make a silly illusion and distract her. What does she like?

SPEAKER_03

Probably her god.

SPEAKER_02

That seems really rude to the picture of her god.

SPEAKER_03

She doesn't know anything about Joanna. Oh look at her god. She's from a fishing town. Maybe she likes fish. Oh, that's a great idea.

SPEAKER_02

Just make a big I can make um smells too, like a stinky fish, perhaps. Yes, she might come running.

SPEAKER_10

She could probably smell if it's high tide or low tide.

SPEAKER_02

Salty air. Yeah, I do think she wouldn't forgive me if I conjured an image of her god and be like, uh, gotcha.

SPEAKER_03

You know? Maybe it would bring her peace, I don't know.

SPEAKER_10

Uh from coming from Hodge, I believe that would be not a good idea. No, I don't.

SPEAKER_02

I just did tell her like 10 minutes ago that I didn't think her god was real. So maybe in poor taste.

SPEAKER_03

You're probably right. Yes. God, their religionship is so weird. Ryan also doesn't really understand religious people, so like Nor do I. He's just like, huh.

SPEAKER_02

What do you get someone who goes to church as a gift?

unknown

What?

SPEAKER_13

I know.

SPEAKER_16

Well, Hodge, that was indeed close.

SPEAKER_19

Uh, let's go. Uh, directly across the hall, there is another door.

SPEAKER_02

Uh sense in the magic.

SPEAKER_19

But it does not open.

SPEAKER_05

What?

SPEAKER_19

It doesn't seem like it's locked. It just seems like the door is stuck. So we require an athletics check to open the door.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

What's your strength? Advantage. At this point, it might be long in time.

SPEAKER_05

My strength is plus two. My athletics is plus four.

SPEAKER_10

My athletics would be plus five.

unknown

Cool.

SPEAKER_10

I don't know. We could just uh roll in a contact if you can help me.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Natural 20.

SPEAKER_19

Oh shit. Uh without even a second's restraint, uh, you manage to push up. Uh you kind of push your shoulder into it uh and and push the door uh run full force into the door. The door bursts off its hinges and uh you are now in this vault. I'm coming into the back. You see in uh a closed chest but not locked. Um then a open chest directly next to it. Um the open chest, you see a silver drinking horn. Probably worth about 35 gold. Whoa! Better take that for your research. And then there is a desk on the other side of the room.

SPEAKER_02

I'll be drinking up at this tight.

SPEAKER_19

My detect magic is up, so if there's anything super special in here, uh you do not sense any magic, uh, but as you look at the desk, uh you see a ledger fragment naming old mercenary payments to quote B dot G dot or Bone Nasher's Host. Oh and then a damaged damaged map marking the tomb door with the phrase Star Blood only. The tomb door uh on this map Star Blood only.

SPEAKER_02

Whoa. So now we know where the tomb door is, and perhaps the passphrase or something to enter it.

SPEAKER_10

Perhaps we can use the key to this door.

SPEAKER_03

Can I make a religion check on what Star Blood only can be? Star Blood.

SPEAKER_10

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Could that be?

SPEAKER_08

Well, if the key was within the family, it might just be literal, like that family are the only people who can use it.

SPEAKER_02

I hope not.

SPEAKER_19

I hope not literal blood.

SPEAKER_02

Um this is why I need everyone's blood.

SPEAKER_19

The silver stars refers to silver stars. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Do we have to use their blood or can I use their key? I don't want to kill a child. You do have the key, but that certainly helps here.

SPEAKER_02

It's a lot, there's a big amount of blood that people can lose with.

SPEAKER_10

It might mean blood in the figurative sense. It's button. Not the literal as yes.

SPEAKER_08

Well.

SPEAKER_10

I hope it's not literal.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, like I think like the key is like the blood, like, because it's the same. Good.

SPEAKER_19

Let's make our way over. I'm assuming one of you wants to check the closed uh you find pouches of 200 total gold. Three, four, five. Well, whoever wants to add it to your inventory can add it to your inventory. Did you want to split this? You took the silver drinking horn, right? Yeah, sure. Definitely.

SPEAKER_03

I took the the torque.

SPEAKER_10

So everyone gets 40 gold.

SPEAKER_03

No, I took the I took the tusk.

SPEAKER_10

Oh. Did anyone take the torque?

SPEAKER_02

I would have if someone else wanted.

SPEAKER_20

Go for it.

SPEAKER_13

Yeah, they get it for three.

SPEAKER_20

So 200.

SPEAKER_19

But if you want to split this gold evenly, uh, you certainly can uh add 40 gold each.

SPEAKER_03

He has no personal possessions other than his bow. And his mask.

SPEAKER_19

And it's boxed boxed cake mix.

SPEAKER_06

Hey! I'll never let that down, huh? No, no box.

SPEAKER_10

Do you have it's do you have cake? It's a dive bar.

SPEAKER_14

It's also at the end of the desert desert.

SPEAKER_03

You can make cake out of anything.

SPEAKER_14

Boxed cake mix?

SPEAKER_03

No, I can't even have restaurants! You have a disability!

SPEAKER_15

This is Orion talking. We're in roleplay restaurants.

SPEAKER_10

Thanks for opening up. Let's make our way over to this door.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_10

Let's see if your key works. Intubably. Is that a word that the soldiers often use?

SPEAKER_05

Indubitably. Oh, we're losing it. Going away.

SPEAKER_02

I think Val may have read uh a book once.

SPEAKER_05

Once?

SPEAKER_02

Had that word in it. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Now we're losing consonants.

unknown

Val's going on.

SPEAKER_03

Incontinents?

SPEAKER_15

You're inconsonant.

SPEAKER_08

Oh. That's a different problem. I can't help that.

SPEAKER_02

I'm pretty sure all the continents are still there.

SPEAKER_01

Strengthen your pelvic floor.

SPEAKER_06

Orion, what do you know about that? Val, do you do eagles?

SPEAKER_02

Well, but the map to the tomb is points us in what direction? Uh the tomb is this small room. Ah, okay. We can pass through this way to search everything else as we go.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, yeah, might as well, I feel, right?

SPEAKER_02

Can we move through these uh few rooms? 100%.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah, I will tell you if anything interesting comes up.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah. Cool. Like more gold.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Um, is it crazy that we're stealing gold from the family when they're still here? It's somebody else's too.

SPEAKER_19

So as you move into this area, uh, it seems as though it's just an old kitchen. Seems. Yeah. Uh as you kind of look around, base level, it just seems like an old kitchen that uh obviously hasn't been used in quite some time. Um but there is another door to a room here if anyone wants to uh check it out.

SPEAKER_03

There's more here. Yeah. My God.

SPEAKER_19

I'll sniff it out. Okay. Uh make a perception check. Ten.

SPEAKER_03

Can I make one too?

SPEAKER_19

Sure.

SPEAKER_03

Uh Slutty twenty.

SPEAKER_02

Bell is the ultimate hype girl.

SPEAKER_08

Yeah, you open that door. Get in there. I'll let Bell to follow me around all the time and just like marrying Symphon Doo.

SPEAKER_19

Belle was the fourth member of Migos.

SPEAKER_11

Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Uh two things happen simultaneously. Ike walks up as a lion, doesn't suspect a thing, but Orion comes over uh his shoulder, starts looking around, you see this kind of green leaking through the top of this door, and you hear kind of skittering. Not on the ground, but on the ceiling. At the same time, through the door, you sense two magic items.

SPEAKER_02

We have to go in there.

SPEAKER_19

I don't know if detect magic is strong enough to tell you what it is.

SPEAKER_02

It would just tell me the school. It would tell me the school of magic.

SPEAKER_19

Well, there's not really a school of magic for these.

SPEAKER_02

Not magic. You can make one up.

unknown

Magic is great.

SPEAKER_02

I'll shoot a fake war around the visible shoot. Shoot the ooze?

SPEAKER_19

You want to shoot the ooze? It doesn't seem to be living.

SPEAKER_02

It was created by a spell. I know the school. That's what nothing. Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Um, can I inspect it from a distance and see what's going on?

SPEAKER_20

I'm about to go with it.

SPEAKER_03

My little survival instincts and figure out what skittering is, maybe.

SPEAKER_19

Uh yeah, uh, I'd say. I mean, if you want to point it out to anyone else, anyone else can also make an arcana check on it.

SPEAKER_03

I will like do like a mom seat belt to Ike. You know? I'll like put my arm out to stop him.

SPEAKER_10

And then I'm just gonna investigate.

SPEAKER_03

And I'll investigate uh what's going on.

SPEAKER_10

I'll lick his hand.

SPEAKER_03

I just I'm like someone's like look at you, like, what the fuck?

SPEAKER_16

Sorry, instinct. What is it?

SPEAKER_03

Your instinct was slick, right?

SPEAKER_16

Sorry. Um I'm getting used to this still. What what do you see?

SPEAKER_03

What is a boy? What do you see? What is it? What do I eat?

SPEAKER_15

See you make an arcana check?

SPEAKER_03

No. I don't know what happens, but you definitely spit on me a little. I didn't know if I spit on my arm. Something happened to me. Zero. Zero. She worked for that.

SPEAKER_19

Something magical. Do you want to investigate it? I have a little bit of arcana. You can roleplay this Nat Zero. Well, I guess 30-0. Sledy.

SPEAKER_16

That isn't how that works, but uh do you just miss it?

SPEAKER_03

No. Definitely from his spittle.

SPEAKER_10

I see Orion looking up, and I also look up. Okay. And see this.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah, making our conject. If you notice it, you can make some one. What is that?

SPEAKER_03

You see his mask tilted upwards, but he's looking like way too high up. That's that's the problem.

SPEAKER_19

Only 11.

SPEAKER_02

23.

SPEAKER_19

Yep. Okay. Hajj, come take a look at this. As you notice Orion struggling very much, and I'm It's not my thing.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I got it.

SPEAKER_19

Uh not being able to figure out either. Uh you walk up uh and very confidently uh sniff and smell this foul odor of death on this goop. And it rings a bell to you. Uh about these burrowing aberrations that scavenge the dead and occasionally prey on living creatures. A beast called a carrion crawler. Whoa, that sounds terrifying.

SPEAKER_09

They're in mother's game.

SPEAKER_02

We fought them before. Not in this campaign, I don't believe. I think. Do we know do I know if they're formidable foes or if they're more like S.

SPEAKER_19

On a 23, uh they have paralyzing tentacles, which can be quite deadly. Uh but all in all you guys can probably handle it, especially you're kind of motivated by those getting the sense of magic items inside. We're like all in this room.

SPEAKER_02

We're out of the door. Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. You're all hanging out in the kitchen while uh while the three of the three of you uh kind of the boys check out the door.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, and the girls are in the kitchen.

SPEAKER_15

Yeah, the girls are the boys are looking at the boys are looking at doorgoo.

SPEAKER_07

Yeah.

SPEAKER_15

Ain't that the thing from the from the Star Wars?

SPEAKER_07

Dorgoo?

SPEAKER_15

Dorgo. Oh my god. Baby Yoda?

SPEAKER_02

That you uh I believe these creatures are carrying crawlers. Uh paralyzing touch and but something that I think we could deal with. Uh to me, this is an ambush situation. Uh Val, uh I can either side of the door. My unseen servant opens it and we lure them out, and immediately the faster we can dispatch them, the better.

SPEAKER_10

Excellent. Val and I get the other side of the door.

SPEAKER_20

What the hell?

SPEAKER_03

And it says, Carrion crawlers.

SPEAKER_07

You can put your hand into it. Yeah, it's good. Yeah, they see me right when the door opens up. Yeah, maybe. Keep me there. I want to be next to Hodge! Use me your bait. Oh, thank you.

SPEAKER_14

Cozy. I feel very safe.

SPEAKER_07

Hodge is gonna have a horizon. Get to the door!

SPEAKER_19

Uh this is just like the library. You're having the unseen servant swing the door open uh and ready in actions to attack it.

SPEAKER_02

I'm gonna ready like a firebolt.

SPEAKER_19

Okay. Ready a random.

SPEAKER_03

My stars are still on.

SPEAKER_19

Ready a random. Uh yeah. You guys ready the door opens and you see one of these uh on the ceiling.

SPEAKER_02

And do you think we can this massive I only ever saw a picture and there was no skin?

SPEAKER_19

Aberration. Uh this monstrosity grolls.

unknown

Okay, okay.

SPEAKER_19

Um ready actions uh you can take.

SPEAKER_14

Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Rand! Well, is he come? Did he come out the door? Yeah! He did not come out the door, he is sticking on the ceiling. Anyone in the doorway can see him. 19.

SPEAKER_08

I ready the guiding bolts.

SPEAKER_19

You have to, I don't know if you can get him well.

SPEAKER_08

Flashback.

SPEAKER_19

Oh, he's that's where he is. Can I reach him?

SPEAKER_08

Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Oh, he's kind of up on the ceiling. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_08

So my 120 feet, can I see him?

SPEAKER_19

For getting both 100%. Yeah, ranged attacks can hit him.

SPEAKER_20

How elaborate do we have to make this fight?

SPEAKER_08

Well, the door is closed. And then the door swung open. 19? Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Two hits. Uh 19 hits, yes.

SPEAKER_07

Um.

SPEAKER_19

Uh 15 radiant damage. Uh, what spell did you use?

SPEAKER_01

Guiding bolt.

SPEAKER_19

Uh guiding bolt shoots into the room, illuminating it for half a second, and you see it just its mouth wide open as its kind of uh claws reach out. I don't like the way it moves. They look like they're trying to reach out with their paralyzing tentacles, like I've warned of, um, and grab somebody and yank them into the room. Uh, but before it can act, you shoot this uh radiant light and damage it quite heavily.

SPEAKER_02

Hell yeah. 22 to hit six fire damage.

SPEAKER_19

Okay. Uh another light shoots out at it. It uh it takes quite a bit of damage immediately uh upon this door opening. You see uh being illuminated by it's otherwise completely dark in there, uh, but being illuminated by these two magical spells, you see lying on the ground a uh magical sword and a magical shield. This seems to have previously been an armory, but it has killed kind of every living thing that has come through here. Uh rats, any corpses, an occasional hobgoblin that has uh tried to go into this armory uh and turn them into this disgusting slime that coats this room now. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I also have a action.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah, go for it.

SPEAKER_03

So it was my bonus action luminous arrow, I rolled a nat 20.

SPEAKER_19

Oh shit. Cool.

SPEAKER_03

Sixteen.

SPEAKER_19

Sixteen to hit?

SPEAKER_03

No.

SPEAKER_19

Oh right, duh. Uh sixteen damage. This thing is bloody already. But with all these ready actions gone, roll initiative, please.

SPEAKER_14

Beautiful. Uh, it's beautiful. Fifteen.

SPEAKER_19

Come on. Ike seven. Joanna.

SPEAKER_13

Seventeen again. Great movie.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. Hodge. Fifteen. Val.

SPEAKER_04

Six.

SPEAKER_19

Okay. The Carrion crawler is up first. Uh it is gonna skitter towards the doorway. And I hold it, I actually it is on the ceiling, so you guys cannot reach it from there. Oh.

SPEAKER_05

I'm really tall. Stab up.

SPEAKER_19

Uh and it is gonna shoot out to the closest person, which would be Val. Uh, I need you to make a con save. The DC is 12 as it shoots out one of these paralyzing tentacles.

SPEAKER_02

Hey, don't get hit by those tentacles.

SPEAKER_06

Thanks. Ooh, that's an eight. I'm rolling like a terrible tonight.

SPEAKER_19

Okay.

SPEAKER_06

And that's okay.

SPEAKER_19

You are now poisoned.

SPEAKER_04

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Um. You will repeat the save on each on the end of each of your turns, ending the effect. After one minute, uh you will succeed automatically also. While poisoned in this way, you are also paralyzed.

SPEAKER_06

Oh what?

SPEAKER_19

So you have the incapacity condition, your speed is zero, you automatically fail strength and deck saves, attacks against you have an advantage. Any attack roll that hits you is a crit if they are within five feet, but they cannot reach you from here. Uh so they will have to drop down.

SPEAKER_02

Um can I use Can I use Silvery Barbs on her roll?

SPEAKER_10

No.

SPEAKER_02

Attack roll succeeds on. Nope, okay.

SPEAKER_10

Oh, that's interesting.

SPEAKER_20

No, I can, but that that's cool though.

SPEAKER_02

That would be cool. Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Good thought. Uh so it's gonna sneak out, paralyze Val, and then slither back into its corner, bringing it to Joanna.

SPEAKER_13

Kill it! Well, I wouldn't provoke an opportunity attack. Well, if you Oh Kill it!

SPEAKER_06

Don't go near Joanna.

SPEAKER_13

I'm not going near it.

SPEAKER_03

I have a little Oh wait, you can't even you can't say that, you're paralyzed. Can I say anything?

SPEAKER_17

No.

SPEAKER_03

I have a little bit of a completely. I felt you think it and I was like, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Well, you also see Al is paralyzed from that. I did I didn't want everybody.

SPEAKER_08

Wisdom 13.

SPEAKER_19

Fail.

SPEAKER_03

I'm just saying it's not very wise. 11 necrotic. I don't ouch.

SPEAKER_19

It is it is very hurt.

SPEAKER_02

Hotch. Okay. I'll fucking throw a magic missile at it. Alright.

SPEAKER_10

Load up like magic baseball. I can see Joanna throwing a guiding bolt like a baseball pitcher.

SPEAKER_07

Either that or the Iron Man.

SPEAKER_10

Nine force damage.

SPEAKER_14

If you got close.

SPEAKER_19

Alright. Continues to be very hurt. Uh it'll be lucky if it survives this round, honestly. Uh Orion.

SPEAKER_03

Alright. I will hit it with another one. Maybe not.

SPEAKER_19

14 just hits.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, cool. Uh eight.

SPEAKER_19

Alright. It's almost there. Okay, cool.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, so that was my uh bonus action. My action will be a starry wisp. No.

SPEAKER_10

Ike. I would like to run in. Because it's still on the ceiling.

SPEAKER_11

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_10

Okay, great. So it's can't I will not provoke an opportunity attack since it's up there. Correct. Great. I'm gonna run in there, pick up the shield with my mouth, and run back out. Oh. Nice.

SPEAKER_05

Lion ice.

SPEAKER_10

Drop it in front of it in front of the crew. So if you could move me. Yeah, if you could move me back out.

SPEAKER_07

Lion heist. Every animal gets a heist.

SPEAKER_19

Um you run in there, you grab it, uh, as as you bring it out to the rest of the group, uh, you see this round shield reinforced with dark old iron. And its inner face bears a faded inscription. Stand between the dale and darkness.

SPEAKER_02

What?

SPEAKER_19

What's relevant? Uh this is a plus one shield.

SPEAKER_02

Yippee.

SPEAKER_19

I might take that.

SPEAKER_02

Wheel shield.

SPEAKER_19

I can. Val.

SPEAKER_02

Well I've got to be able to do that.

SPEAKER_19

Pretty much the only one we can use. Um I would like you to make a Nat 20, doesn't matter. Oh, there you go.

SPEAKER_06

Get her action back.

SPEAKER_19

Uh absolutely. On a Nat 20, you get your action back.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah!

SPEAKER_10

Let's go.

SPEAKER_04

Um, get them.

SPEAKER_10

Do you have ranged stuff?

SPEAKER_04

I have some cantrips that I can use, I suppose.

SPEAKER_19

You might have javelins too.

SPEAKER_04

I have javelins.

SPEAKER_19

I don't know how much damage that does. Not as much as uh which square is the sword on? Uh it's kind of tucked back. Yeah. Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, I have China baby Q can. I'm just like curious how that's.

SPEAKER_10

I was just seeing if she had enough movement to go in and back out.

SPEAKER_02

Till it might be nice. It's a D12 when they've taken damage.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, let's do Toledad, but mine's a cowbell. Cool. Mal and I can make you love it.

SPEAKER_19

Uh that is a wisdom save?

SPEAKER_06

Uh 14, yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Success. Poopy! Save our Sak.

SPEAKER_06

Save our sick. I fart.

SPEAKER_19

Are you gonna save or are you gonna suck? I'm gonna fart.

SPEAKER_06

Like with the draw, save sucker fart.

SPEAKER_19

Uh Val breaks out of the paralyzed condition.

SPEAKER_03

Trapped in my bus.

SPEAKER_19

The carrion crawler really does not have any options to survive this. So it is gonna try to take out the lion before it dies. It's gonna rush up, it's gonna shoot a paralyzing tentacle at Ike.

SPEAKER_04

Can I like throw the shield at him so it like Captain America?

SPEAKER_05

Captain America Argument.

SPEAKER_19

A save or does it? Constitution save.

SPEAKER_11

Civil War, baby.

SPEAKER_19

C12. That's a save. That's a 16. Uh it's gonna hop down off the ceiling. Last ditch effort. Uh it's gonna bite at you. It's gonna miss. Uh surrounded by a bunch of people, it like barely is hanging onto the ceiling. As it hits the doorway, it kind of drops down uh and kind of limps over towards you. Tries to shoot out a tentacle, but it kind of just shoots out, hits the floor next to you. And its mouth, its kind of round, worm-like mouth, flashes out to you. But it's very easy to just paw away uh at this point in its uh injuredness. Joanna, how would you like to finish this thing off?

SPEAKER_13

Okay.

SPEAKER_19

Um would you like to finish this big worm?

SPEAKER_08

I don't want to anymore. Um another wisdom fruit.

SPEAKER_07

Another wisdom fruit.

SPEAKER_08

From it.

SPEAKER_12

That's a fail.

unknown

Wow.

SPEAKER_14

Oh no.

SPEAKER_10

You guys need headlamps for your damn eyes.

SPEAKER_14

God.

SPEAKER_19

Or the the dude from Toy Story with the glasses.

SPEAKER_00

Nine Necronic.

SPEAKER_19

This uh this ravenous corpse eater, uh very surprised by your attack, as soon as the door swings open, it had the uh usually it has the upper hand plotting its uh its plan of attack at the ceiling, but not uh everyone studies the door for quite so long to figure out exactly what's behind it. Uh and it dies at your feet.

SPEAKER_07

Pulls her little triangle out again and goes, it's okay, Val.

SPEAKER_06

I guess you just don't like the frequency of the cowbell.

SPEAKER_02

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that it's a cowbell.

SPEAKER_05

What do you mean?

SPEAKER_02

Why do you have a cowbell?

SPEAKER_05

Ricol the dead.

SPEAKER_02

Uh huh.

SPEAKER_05

We all get to pick your thing. I pick this.

SPEAKER_02

Is this paralysis colour? A goo? That I could harvest.

SPEAKER_16

Uh could harvest one of its tentacles. For your research. One of its tentacles. Tentacles, yes.

SPEAKER_20

Eyes. Tentacles.

SPEAKER_03

Mm-hmm. Mm-mm.

SPEAKER_07

Are you gonna touch the people good?

SPEAKER_02

Testicles. I probably only have my unseen servant attempt to I'm okay with that.

SPEAKER_08

I don't want you touching it, but it's not.

SPEAKER_02

I don't really want to get paralyzed. Val farted.

SPEAKER_16

So I'm sure I do much worse. It must be a side effect.

SPEAKER_06

Everyone farts when they get paralyzed.

SPEAKER_03

Uh it's like shitty when you die. But it's not paralyzed again. It's uh blue boxing mummy skin.

SPEAKER_19

On that 23 check, the Arcana check, the carrion crawler uh poison uh is actually its brain juice. And it can be extracted or beaten out of its brain. That's crazy.

SPEAKER_02

So absolutely. Would you mind um cleaving its skull in twain for me?

SPEAKER_06

In twain? You gotta remember.

SPEAKER_03

One skull or two skull. Is that Mark Twain?

SPEAKER_06

All right, everyone. That gap.

SPEAKER_20

I don't think Lily's ever read a book either.

SPEAKER_06

Moby Dick written by Charles Dick.

SPEAKER_19

Good lord.

SPEAKER_15

It was it was written by the guy Mo.

SPEAKER_03

Her mel. It was written by Mo B.

SPEAKER_15

Dickens. It was an autobiography written by Ishmael.

SPEAKER_02

Anyways.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Chop his head in half so I can steal goo from his brain.

SPEAKER_04

Okay, well, study. Please. So you don't get smashed.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. I'm very far away.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

I was thinking of Tom Sawyer.

SPEAKER_02

Is that Tom Sawyer wrote Moby Dick? Yes.

SPEAKER_03

It was just two guy names.

SPEAKER_02

Moby Dick is not a guy name.

SPEAKER_03

It's a whale name, I know!

SPEAKER_06

But I think he was a guy. Was Moby Dick not a whale name?

SPEAKER_03

No, I didn't read it.

SPEAKER_02

Anyway.

SPEAKER_19

Good lord.

SPEAKER_02

Who do I get? Do I get a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit?

SPEAKER_19

You get one crawler mucus.

SPEAKER_02

I carry vials. And glasses and more, I'm sure there's them in like a little bit of a little bit of a little bit.

SPEAKER_19

So it is a 13 con save. What? You're telling me about it. Yeah, make it rising for one minute. The poison creature is paralyzed. That's pretty cool. And the same exact effects that Val went through.

SPEAKER_20

That is going to come in handy.

SPEAKER_19

It is worth quite a bit on the market. It's about 200 gold. Oh shit, because carrying crawlers are very rare. But Paralysis is quite useful. Oh yeah. Auto crit on a melee attack, so uh and you can't do anything as long as you continue to fail that saving throw.

SPEAKER_05

You can just let me coat your arrows with it. I could.

SPEAKER_02

That'd be really cool. I mean anyone is welcome to use this when the time is right.

SPEAKER_05

Oh we can do that.

SPEAKER_19

Very disgusting, sticky, membranous liquid uh that has this dark orange-ish color as you just wonder how it fill this vial. I don't, actually. It smells horrific. Of course it does.

SPEAKER_02

How much did you say how much it was worth?

SPEAKER_19

200 gold. You should be able to find it in like it's a few. Okay.

SPEAKER_06

Let's get that sword. Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. You go inside. It could be used as a pear, the sword and the shield of some. You go inside and you see a plain but beautifully balanced long sword with a silver star stamped into the pommel. Nice. Seemingly seemingly belong to one of Demara's companions. It is also a plus one. So there is a plus one shield, a plus one long sword. Excellent.

SPEAKER_10

If you don't mind, I think that uh the shield will prove to be useful for me out of combat.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. I have no idea.

SPEAKER_10

And you have you need both your hands to wield Linda.

SPEAKER_06

Linda is a handful of it.

SPEAKER_03

Is a long sword a martial weapon? Or is a simple weapon?

SPEAKER_19

Uh I believe it is a martial weapon.

SPEAKER_03

I can wield it.

SPEAKER_19

I think simple weapons are like short sword, uh club and order staff and things like that. Anything that wouldn't require any training to use, really.

SPEAKER_03

Could Joanna wield it? I don't know.

SPEAKER_02

Actually, what's your AC with your armor? Okay. Yeah, I wasn't sure. Sure, please. It's cool.

SPEAKER_03

It's gonna be a star on it. Plus one long sword. It kind of like goes with you because there's a star on it. That's pretty cool.

SPEAKER_15

Yeah, technically. That was Becca saying it.

SPEAKER_12

Now now saying.

SPEAKER_19

Oh she really wanted that sword. Cool.

SPEAKER_05

Linda would be devastating.

SPEAKER_10

I want to check out this long sword plus one. I want to check out this door to the west here. I wonder what's in there. Well, well, well, well, well.

SPEAKER_19

There is a well. When there's a well, there's a way. And that seems about it.

SPEAKER_08

Isn't the bucket like that?

SPEAKER_02

And then you notice, apart from the obvious big piles of stone and and wood, the floors are very, very clean. Strangely. You see uh in addition to the kind of the big pig pile big piles of stone and the kind of organized wood, uh you see a discarded boot. Oh, one boot and acid pitted pickaxes lying next to the stones. What? And then you start to see floating bones suspended in a clear slime moving slowly towards you. Oh make a perception check. Oh frick seventeen eighteen.

SPEAKER_19

All you hear is this is just a Lord of Rainbows. I need everyone to make a deck save. The DC is 12.

SPEAKER_11

Okay.

You will have this, we will have disadvantage on this.

SPEAKER_02

My goal is not to let it touch you guys.

SPEAKER_03

And wait wait, what kind of save is it again? Don't I write two elevens? 1111 make a wish. It's free.

SPEAKER_19

Dexterity. Dexterity, DC 12. Disadvantage.

SPEAKER_14

SPEAKER_14

Okay.

SPEAKER_20

Uh, that's a four.

SPEAKER_19

It'll be fine.

SPEAKER_06

Eight.

SPEAKER_19

Did you succeed? Eight. Okay, so everyone except Orion is going to take five acid damage, become engulfed, and start suffocating. Oh, sick. I have you can hold your breath for a while. So you don't have to worry about losing your breath. The combat is gonna end before then. But narratively, you are inside of this. Uh everyone except for Orion is inside of this gelatinous. What?

SPEAKER_07

And me. You say.

SPEAKER_19

Right. Uh is is suffocating.

SPEAKER_07

If you see me through it, just her eyes are even somehow even bigger.

SPEAKER_19

Uh, which means that you cannot cast spells with a verbal component. Uh you have the restrained condition. Um, and you will take acid damage at the start of each of your each of the cubes turns if it makes it through anymore. Um it ain't gonna. It is then it is gonna go on to Hodge.

SPEAKER_01

Oh!

SPEAKER_19

Up to me, I guess. Uh so I need the DC uh 12 deck save disadvantage.

SPEAKER_04

Are we all in it then?

SPEAKER_19

Yeah, everyone except for Orion is inside of it. Can we we can't still attack, or would it be just how would that work?

SPEAKER_02

With disadvantage?

SPEAKER_19

Yes.

SPEAKER_02

Why?

SPEAKER_19

Uh because of its cube. Who's cube feature? I fell.

unknown

I fake.

SPEAKER_19

Okay, so you will also take that five acid damage.

SPEAKER_14

But the gravel.

SPEAKER_19

You will take two. I I forgot it was half uh half damage on a success. But you are not engulfed. So everyone inside of it has the restrained condition. You can use um, you can try to escape by taking an action to make a DC-12 athletics check. Um I'm assuming we cannot attack while we're engulfed.

SPEAKER_02

Sure you can.

SPEAKER_19

You can. Uh you have disadvantage. Um and you can't make uh yeah, you can't make verbal spell attacks, but other than that, uh so I can't miss unless I roll one.

SPEAKER_02

I will like drag my hand, put the goo to my hip, and pull out my dagger for like the first time ever. It's like riding my list around.

SPEAKER_20

Alright, Lily.

SPEAKER_11

You looked at me! You looked at me!

SPEAKER_20

Because uh she knew I would look at her in the same face. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Let's go.

unknown

Kill him.

SPEAKER_02

Same brain. Damn it. Yeah. Brain brain. Six.

SPEAKER_19

If it's probably exactly what it's HB, how do you want to do this?

SPEAKER_02

Um, I'm gonna just like pull my dagger and like cut like a me size shape out of it. Backwards out of it, and I guess that was enough to fucking.

SPEAKER_19

As you slice through it, sort of starts to soften as everyone uh sort of Austin Powers, how he like just get out of the goof, they spray him, and then he peas for like demonstration.

SPEAKER_02

I was thinking more like the Matrix.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. That too. Great movies. Anyway, that is the end of our gelatinous cube combat. Congratulations on defeating a gelatinous cube. Love that.

SPEAKER_06

How does it clean us?

SPEAKER_02

Classic do deep in it. I can de-goo everyone if I can.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, yeah. Uh preferably, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, we've been like being in that interesting. Uh it was like thing. It's like a thing. It's like if bees were jelly. Ah, that makes sense. I uh I mean you all read it.

SPEAKER_08

I I guess it's jelly.

SPEAKER_16

I kept bees. Yeah. Oh.

SPEAKER_08

Now that we're jelly. Now that we have it.

SPEAKER_19

Um as you clean off Orion, a corroded silver holy symbol drops down onto the floor and kind of uh something was in the cube stuck onto you, and as you got cleaned, it fell off. Never mind. As you clean off Joanna Holy Sylvain, uh what about 15 gold? Uh rolls off onto the floor.

SPEAKER_08

Can I do a religion check on it? Do I know like what can I like? Is it physically cleaned?

SPEAKER_19

You can. It's very corroded, so it's very difficult to see what holy silver like what it is. Um but metal works.

SPEAKER_02

Can it silver not be corroded? No, it doesn't like tarnish. It just tarnishes, that's this whole thing. It doesn't cost.

SPEAKER_14

I take it back.

SPEAKER_15

A corroded holy symbol. You don't know what type of metal it is. It's certainly one that can corrode. One of those classic corrodable metals.

SPEAKER_19

Uh it's very hard to be go for it.

SPEAKER_08

Oh, I don't know if you're not.

SPEAKER_19

What do you get? Um, it you can't see what's on it. Um, on a 19, even on a 19, you're not going to be able to do it.

SPEAKER_08

There's like any sort of like a bad vibe from it.

SPEAKER_19

It's we don't really get anything from it. Um it's sort of like uh an old artifact. Uh that somebody probably uh an old cleric that lived in here that obviously got eaten by the cube.

SPEAKER_13

Uh got sealed.

SPEAKER_19

Um it was obviously corroded by being in the cube for quite some time. And then as you're cleaning off like a uh scroll tube uh falls down, and you look at it and you notice that it is waterproof. Uh it is completely sealed. Uh over the hard or from one tiny gap. There's one tiny gap that some of the must be a scroll scroll here. Uh you find a half a half dissolved note, but what was described uh is fully visible. It says the war is not a treasure, it is a question asked of death. And death always answers answers falsely.

SPEAKER_02

What we then absolutely have to break this or this cannot be. We have to break it, destroy it, banish it, what have you. Why? This is no I just I tell them what it says and I read the note aloud and no, no, no, no, no, it doesn't matter.

SPEAKER_10

I would agree with that.

SPEAKER_02

No. No truth. Good person can become a necromancer.

SPEAKER_10

I hope it isn't in that.

SPEAKER_19

Without further ado, you walk up. You already know where this hidden door is. And as you kind of wipe some of the dust from the stone that has been here, uh and just the time that has passed, you wipe off what you know is the hidden door, uh, and you see this smooth black stone with a silver star-shaped depression. Perfectly fitting your key.

SPEAKER_04

Excellent. Yeah, well be careful though. Yeah, I'm gonna open that shit.

SPEAKER_19

Okay. Uh you slowly place the key into the depression, uh, and the uh door lifts from the bottom. Cold, dry air scented with myrrh funnels out, and dust fills the room, and you with that detect magic are surrounded by this old magic. This necromancy uh God fills it fills your mind as your vision is obscured with all the dust, but you feel this cool air uh kind of giving you chills as it is foul.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, dark magic.

SPEAKER_19

Um my nostrils sting. Looking inside, the tomb is not crude, it is solemn and wrong. Carved reliefs show Damara standing against ogres, wolves, goblins, and skeletal warriors. In the final panel, Damara kneels before a shining orb, while shadowy hands reach from the ground around her. At the center lies a stone sarcophagus. The orb of Damara floats above it, dull and black, with a faint silver light at its heart. Two humanoid shadows cling to the walls like stains.

SPEAKER_09

Yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Whoa. Rollinish Oh shit! Twelve initiative for Ike.

SPEAKER_07

Roger.

SPEAKER_19

Okay, Joanna. Nine Hodge 19.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_03

Lucky's on the half of my bow's gone.

SPEAKER_19

Uh oh, bow.

SPEAKER_03

Where the hell did that go?

SPEAKER_19

Bow? What? 15. Your bow gone? That sucks.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, one of my bow is gone.

SPEAKER_19

What the hell?

SPEAKER_03

Good thing I have two. Surely.

SPEAKER_19

Or snap the one bow off the other. You have duo ryan.

SPEAKER_03

Nice. You keep him in the little trinket box, right? Maybe he's an error. He's been on it's he's been like on it. So I don't really know what that is.

SPEAKER_19

Hodge, you are up first. But you see it. You see as weird. Uh as Val kind of steps forward a little bit, umara, who is now a mummy, rises slowly. Knew it from her spot. Yes. Knew it. Bone Asher was too easy.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_19

Uh seemingly bound to this orb. Her undeath has twisted herself into this murderous, possessive being. Uh she rises and says.

SPEAKER_09

The living of trespass. Who comes to claim my sin?

SPEAKER_20

Whoa.

SPEAKER_09

The living.

SPEAKER_20

Well, hop back on, we're going in. Hodge, what are you doing?

SPEAKER_02

Phantasmal force.

SPEAKER_20

Oh, how does Hodge say it?

SPEAKER_14

No fear. Um Phantasmal Force. Mine slipper. Mine slipper.

SPEAKER_02

Um Intelligence 14.

SPEAKER_19

Oh my god.

SPEAKER_08

That good.

SPEAKER_19

A negative one. She's stupid a foot.

SPEAKER_02

Holy fuck, this is like three paragraphs.

SPEAKER_19

Well, you can like create a bunch of different shit.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, it's like it's whatever like a fear of hers are. So I'll say like um being alive? Yeah, it's a print of life. Um slapping her across the face. Yeah. Um, I'll have her imagine like flowers and vines and trees are growing out of her body and like tearing her apart. Um sick.

SPEAKER_05

Hell yeah.

SPEAKER_02

And I'm trying to see when it does damage.

SPEAKER_18

Sounds like ice perfectly.

SPEAKER_02

She failed it so she can take a study action if she wants to see if it's a spell. Okay. But otherwise she just believes it's real.

SPEAKER_19

So she just uh you cast a spell and she just sees plant life on like out of her.

SPEAKER_02

No, it's just her while affected by the spell, the target treats the phantasm as if it were real and rationalizes any illogical outcomes for interacting with it.

SPEAKER_20

That's weird.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, it's not real. They're like, oh my god, it's so real. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_19

Does it do damage?

SPEAKER_02

On each of your turns, such a phantasm can deal 2d8 psychic damage to the target if it's within five feet. Yes. Okay.

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

So it'd just be like probably piercing damage. Okay. I'm trying to like imagine it's like tearing it apart. So 2d8 psychic damage. Okay. I won't roll that.

unknown

I don't know why.

SPEAKER_11

I declare 2d8 psychic damage.

SPEAKER_02

You're gonna eight psychic damage. Nice.

SPEAKER_19

Uh you see these uh well, I guess you don't see them. You maybe you do. Hmm.

SPEAKER_02

It's up to you.

SPEAKER_19

It's up to you.

SPEAKER_02

I would love to.

SPEAKER_19

Uh you see uh these these plants kind of ripping uh and tearing her very form as she looks down and goes, What have you done?

SPEAKER_02

Um First, you'll have to face my knight! And I'll minor illusion of knight in like armor right in front of her.

SPEAKER_14

I set my knight in defense position!

SPEAKER_19

Amazing. Um you're gonna put it in between Val and her. And this is, I would assume this is one that dissipates if something moves through it.

SPEAKER_02

They will know it's an illusion, they won't dissipate.

SPEAKER_19

Oh. Well, okay. I'm about to jump in there.

SPEAKER_06

I was saying, so like we can run to it.

SPEAKER_02

It may waste a single action. That's all I care about. It's fucking free. You know, see what happens.

SPEAKER_19

Fair enough. Tamara is next.

SPEAKER_02

What's right for that night, Tamara?

SPEAKER_16

I wouldn't just run past it if I were you. The wheel?

SPEAKER_08

The radius thing.

SPEAKER_20

Do you need it for that?

SPEAKER_03

The wheel of dogs.

SPEAKER_20

I feel like it's gonna hit. It's a 10-foot room.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know. I just like sometimes with radiuses, I get confused as to where I can set her.

SPEAKER_20

Oh, anywhere you want.

SPEAKER_02

But that are you everybody's so creative in her mind. To her, there's a true flesh and blood, or at least a suit of armor with a sword in front of her. Just a reminder, she sees it. She thinks it's real, unless proven otherwise.

SPEAKER_06

Um hell yeah.

SPEAKER_09

If you have all gotten this far, you must have taken down Bonasha.

SPEAKER_05

Who? Week. Yeah. I did.

SPEAKER_09

She was it because you desire my home? Or was it to protect my ancestry?

SPEAKER_07

Uh neither.

SPEAKER_09

Then what do you desire?

SPEAKER_13

For this to end. This you are a twister.

SPEAKER_20

Okay, right card for Maldon, right?

SPEAKER_00

As she's talking, she's gonna be like, Why am I talking? Why am I doing it?

SPEAKER_19

I need you to make a wisdom saving throw DC 11. As she makes a dread dreadful glare attack at you.

SPEAKER_04

Oh, that sounds dreadful.

SPEAKER_19

What's that easy? 11.

SPEAKER_04

Uh, can she even see past the knight? 21.

SPEAKER_19

She's definitely can. Uh you shake that off. You are not afraid of her. Hell yeah. Um, then she looks down at the knight.

SPEAKER_07

Servant of the mage.

SPEAKER_19

Uh she reaches out a rotting fist.

SPEAKER_01

You you oh no.

SPEAKER_19

Wait, I guess it doesn't really matter if she hits it. Uh she reaches out and just waits another. It pierces through the illusion. And then floats forward.

SPEAKER_02

Tricks of her horse.

SPEAKER_14

I'm an illusionist. Oh my god.

SPEAKER_19

Uh floats forward and makes a rotting fist attack at Val.

SPEAKER_14

Should've done that first, but oh well.

SPEAKER_02

Ren! Two rend attacks.

SPEAKER_02

Guys, this is crazy watching these two fight like this. Frick!

SPEAKER_20

Uh only one of those is going to hit. Fuck. Five slashing damage. Wait! I could have made both at advantage! Because of pack tactics. So I'm going to re-roll the other attack at advantage. That's a natural twenty! Fuck! That's fuck! That's a two and a one! For another six!

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_19

The rest of y'all range, we're good.

SPEAKER_08

From where I am, if I have to move over, I'll just lob and spells over top. Um if I need to, I'll move over one, but from where I am, can I see her to make her do a save? Or should I like Wemby?

SPEAKER_19

Uh she well, because it's an ally that you're shooting through, yes.

SPEAKER_13

Okay.

SPEAKER_19

Um it only becomes half cover and quarter and three-quarters cover if it's she's probably it was a stent too not spotted. If it's not an ally. Because the ally can duck and away like you.

SPEAKER_14

How fucking dare you? I have plenty of stuff.

SPEAKER_16

We'll just have to find a dice. This is why you can't plan too far in DD. Just to find a dice.

SPEAKER_03

So I want these two to make a con 13.

SPEAKER_02

I don't think that's real. Well, we can get rid of that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Oh, he's he's gone. I want to do something else. I think.

SPEAKER_02

No, it's one-handed or two-handed. You can do it two-handed because you don't have a shield.

SPEAKER_03

So it's one d 10. Um to this one in front of me.

SPEAKER_02

The shadow?

unknown

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. I might be immune to poison. That's technically a poisoned paralysis.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_02

There's no repeat save either.

SPEAKER_19

Oof. Concentration though? Yes. Okay.

SPEAKER_02

What does that matter?

SPEAKER_19

I'm just curious. Seeing if he's gonna target me next.

SPEAKER_02

246.

SPEAKER_19

Because the shadows don't know what's happening, and the mummy certainly can't reach you. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Nine force damage off of that magic missile.

SPEAKER_04

Nice.

SPEAKER_02

And then I will um you guys see these traits or darts shoot above you. I love this. Minor illusion. I'm inside of a rock. Um a concrete, like a big pillar, a stone pillar stretches from there. Nice. Oh, reliable. Yes. Amazing.

SPEAKER_14

What? This definitely. Not a crit. What?

SPEAKER_02

And there goes all my smails. Sometimes crits are. Yeah, that's it. That's why I played melee.

SPEAKER_04

I'm saving my last two for healing. That's probably the peeling as well.

SPEAKER_06

Not enough to really do much, but enough to keep people from death.

SPEAKER_07

Did I lie? I can run into the fright.

SPEAKER_19

You're sushi. 17 bludgeoning damage.

SPEAKER_06

Very good.

SPEAKER_19

Eight necrotic.

SPEAKER_06

Oh that's only four.

SPEAKER_19

What?

SPEAKER_06

I'm resistant.

SPEAKER_19

Resistant to necrotic. You.

SPEAKER_00

I've learned something.

SPEAKER_02

Oh my if she weren't resistant. You are cursed.

SPEAKER_04

What?

SPEAKER_19

Which means you cannot regain hit points.

SPEAKER_04

For how long?

SPEAKER_19

Uh I think he might tell you. I think he's getting there. Um while you're cursed, you can't regain hit points. Your hit point maximum doesn't return to normal when finishing a long rest, and your hit point maximum decreases by 10 every 24 hours that elapse. Oh my god. Do you ever move dead and dust? Can you get it? If you are killed by this attack. Jesus.

SPEAKER_02

That's horrible. Do you guys know? Holy shit, she almost became dust. Yes.

SPEAKER_03

Oh. Okay. Well, good thing I'm not. I think maybe we should destroy the orb.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. I think we burn this place down. She is very hurt at this point, but Val, it is your turn. Come on, baby.

SPEAKER_05

I'm gonna have to.

SPEAKER_04

Dish it back at it.

SPEAKER_10

Do you know I don't know that you can even repair it?

SPEAKER_04

Uh, okay, so I have Hunter's Mark, so that's advantage on this bitch. Is that what Hunter's Mark does? No.

SPEAKER_10

Hunter's Mark gives you an extra d6 to your damage.

SPEAKER_04

No.

SPEAKER_10

Valve of Enmity is advantage, which you do. I think you have at this level, I'm not sure.

SPEAKER_05

I think I do, but I don't really need it.

SPEAKER_02

It's not advantage. Hunter's Mark is definitely not advantageous.

SPEAKER_10

Just an extra d6 for whatever you roll for your d12.

SPEAKER_06

Hunts and that one. At least I hit myself in the face. And the rest of my hit points are gone.

SPEAKER_02

Which way do I swing the axe again?

SPEAKER_07

Val, you're holding the axe like me. You're holding it by the wrong end. Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_17

How dare Linda do that to you?

SPEAKER_11

Yeah, Linda.

SPEAKER_19

Ike. Joanna on deck.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_05

Oh I can't I can heal myself.

SPEAKER_19

SPEAKER_05

Wait, I thought you just said she can't heal.

SPEAKER_06

Oh that's what I was like, can I with this curse? I'm not quite sure.

SPEAKER_19

Alright, so that's uh you cannot regain hit points. Oh, poopy, that's not gonna work. Alright.

SPEAKER_10

Um can the fuck? Uh l- I can't move past her to get to the orb.

SPEAKER_02

Frick! She's almost dead.

SPEAKER_20

Well, I'm going to two rend attacks.

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_20

At advantage, thank you. That first one did not help.

SPEAKER_19

They are vulnerable to Radiant.

SPEAKER_17

Yeah!

SPEAKER_07

Yeah, her word is. Oh gosh! Is that your turn?

SPEAKER_19

Two more draining swipes at Joanna.

SPEAKER_08

Lovely. Well, guys, um We got you. I'm fucking scared.

SPEAKER_08

SPEAKER_08

Okay.

SPEAKER_19

What's your what's you at?

SPEAKER_08

18.

SPEAKER_19

I'm still up. Three necrotic. I'm worried about my strength reduces by four. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Fuck. You are gaunt as your strength is sacked away rapidly.

SPEAKER_03

I am more scared right now than I was in final.

SPEAKER_19

Val and Joanna are frighteningly close to death. But Damara is as well. We have Demara. Two more. Orion and Hodge before Damara gets another turn. Orion. Get her ass.

SPEAKER_03

No. Uh how hurt is she? Very, very happy. Very, very hurt.

SPEAKER_19

She is like so hurt. Her body has already decayed. She is a mummy, but she is falling apart.

SPEAKER_03

Moonbeam.

SPEAKER_19

Moonbeam.

SPEAKER_03

Ah, so that's a con 13.

SPEAKER_02

Does that save or suck or half too? Calf. That's why I'm doing it. Nice.

SPEAKER_10

Why not shoot her twice? Save her. Natural one.

SPEAKER_03

15.

SPEAKER_19

Nice. How do you want to do this?

SPEAKER_03

Um, I see my who I now call friends on the verge of death, and I have. You can't see it, but I have death in my eyes. I am so fucking angry that I just. Uh um. The light of the stars just kind of bursts forth and down, and just she catches on fire and just starts to ash.

SPEAKER_19

And with her death go the shadows as well.

SPEAKER_14

What I was hoping for!

SPEAKER_19

Jesus Christ. The orb still hangs in the air.

SPEAKER_02

I think the moon beam would have been centered in the back. Did the moon beam do anything to the orb if it would have fucking flashed?

SPEAKER_19

Are you targeting because it would be on top of Ike.

SPEAKER_02

So it'd be in the book.

SPEAKER_19

It would be on the very back. Okay. It'll be on the very back, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

But the moon beam is still up. Uh excuse you.

SPEAKER_19

We are out of combat. You can move the moon beam if you want. Move this. Use your moon beam to try to destroy the orb.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, I think we gotta get rid of the orb. Oh my god!

SPEAKER_14

I'm putting Shamana up on top of Ike when you uh as you do that.

SPEAKER_01

Stay.

SPEAKER_19

I'll do my nothing seems to happen.

SPEAKER_10

Oh 17, Joanna.

SPEAKER_05

Oh good. Nice.

SPEAKER_10

And then Val, you're next. She cannot be healed. Oh, that's fucking right. Shit bars.

SPEAKER_06

But how did I see that? So radiant damage don't do shit to that job, huh?

SPEAKER_03

Or it seems to not. I can hit it with my dagger. I mean, I mean long sword that's covered in poison. I'm so I wasted that shit.

SPEAKER_02

We maybe siphon it back off the knife. We didn't technically use it. I don't know. It's up to thousands.

SPEAKER_19

Um but uh yeah, if you it did not come into contact, so it has not been sullied, meaning you can like scrape it off my bottle.

SPEAKER_10

I'll go if you turn off your moon beam since it didn't do anything, I'll just go up and hit it.

SPEAKER_05

Sure. Be careful, I'm on your bed. I can hold her.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah, take take Joanna off of me.

SPEAKER_05

Now you're so strong.

SPEAKER_19

The orb as you get closer to it and its light has kind of dimmed, you notice it's about six inches in diameter. It's not this massive thing.

SPEAKER_02

It seems pretty massive to me.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it's about someone to say something.

SPEAKER_19

Uh made of glassy iridescent material, almost like obsidian. Uh it looks incredibly hard. Of course.

SPEAKER_07

Incredibly hard. Six inches in diameter.

SPEAKER_20

Where are the uh yeah, I'm gonna smack it.

unknown

Like a cat?

SPEAKER_20

Like he's a lion. I'm gonna try out to break it.

SPEAKER_03

Before he does that though, I actually, instead of canceling my moonbeam, I just want to move it further in case like something spawns.

SPEAKER_19

Okay, you just want to kind of protect, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Just in case I'm being really cautious. Yeah, by like that.

SPEAKER_19

Alright. Get it, I like a cat in a yarn ball. It falls not it it was floating in the air and it falls to the ground and lays beneath you.

SPEAKER_02

Okay. Um damage, seemingly?

SPEAKER_19

No.

SPEAKER_02

Can I make an arcana check on it? Like, a moment, please.

SPEAKER_19

Certainly very powerful.

SPEAKER_02

Can I make an arcana check on it?

SPEAKER_20

That rays up right before I'm about to swipe down on us.

SPEAKER_02

Like, I maybe just a moment.

SPEAKER_19

You uh with your detect magic. Sure. You get conjuration magic, divination magic, enchantment magic, evocation magic, and illusion magic. This is all coming from within this thing.

SPEAKER_03

Uh no necromancy magic?

SPEAKER_19

No necrom necromancy, no.

SPEAKER_02

Actually, there's no necromantic magic coming off of this. Oh, this is very strange.

SPEAKER_20

That's crazy. I don't like it.

SPEAKER_02

I don't like it either. Uh 13 arcana check. Alright.

SPEAKER_10

I could help you.

SPEAKER_02

Oh. Could the lie help?

SPEAKER_10

Could be studying it. I have a plus four to arcana, so. Absolutely. Yes.

SPEAKER_02

Better. 18.

SPEAKER_19

Like pawing at it.

SPEAKER_11

Yes.

SPEAKER_19

You notice as you're pawing it around and it gets closer to your mouth, it begins to shrink. And then when you paw it again, it grows. No. As it gets closer to your mouth, it shrinks, and then almost as if on that 18, almost as if it wants to be picked it up.

SPEAKER_02

I just want to try something. I'm not going to eat it. And I'll just put it like it like shrinks out. It shrinks to the size of a grave. Oh my god. It wants to be eaten.

SPEAKER_19

As you as you guys have been playing, it is incredibly, incredibly hard. It feels like something that would be nigh impossible to destroy with your current powers.

SPEAKER_02

Would it be awesome if I ate it? Let me know if it's gonna be awesome or if it's gonna be really, really bad.

SPEAKER_19

There has been ample warning. You feel that. It might be. You've got all these different uh senses of different types of magic that are within this powerful magic or tantalizing.

SPEAKER_06

Does it have to go in your mouth at all? But it's tantalizing in a way that the pocket.

SPEAKER_02

I will check to see if it if I get near my ass, if it gets like a god. Uh gross.

SPEAKER_01

What is that supposed to be?

SPEAKER_07

It's a pocket. I said pocket, like put it like in a bag or something.

SPEAKER_02

You don't believe it's left with me.

SPEAKER_01

Uh yeah, because you'll put it in your phone.

SPEAKER_02

I just I think if Ike could carry it or someone else. I will carry it.

SPEAKER_20

I will help you bear this boon.

SPEAKER_04

I won't carry it. I might die. Share the loan.

SPEAKER_20

As long as it's yours to bear. Uh yeah, I will carry it.

SPEAKER_10

I will uh I'll stay as a lion so the girls can just kind of lay uh sit on my back while we travel back when we travel back.

SPEAKER_03

Until your uh wild shape stops and then they fall. Yeah. I'll break my leg.

SPEAKER_19

You uh so you're gonna carry it. Where? Did you say that? I wasn't thinking about it. Oh, um, yeah, since we're out of combat, I will wild shape out and Val goes flying. Put it uh for the second time that somebody's ridden you and they go flying catch me!

SPEAKER_10

No catch me and I will place it in my pack.

SPEAKER_19

Okay as Ike transforms and steps away because you're still right there. You look inside the sarcophagus, yes I do, and you see a spell scroll and a huge bag of gold. Very nice.

SPEAKER_02

Nice spell scrolls of war.

SPEAKER_19

Spell scroll of fireball. Oh shit. And five hundred gold.

SPEAKER_03

And that's to buy a spell scroll and remove curse.

SPEAKER_19

Possibly.

SPEAKER_06

Well enough to pay somebody to do it.

SPEAKER_10

Would you like to split that evenly? Yeah, of course. Okay.

SPEAKER_05

Unless we need more.

SPEAKER_20

Damn, we're fucking rich.

SPEAKER_05

We are. Ryan finally has enough money to buy his own food.

SPEAKER_16

We should get out of here.

SPEAKER_19

Val is out too HP. Unable to be healed, feeling that curse seep into her, knowing that if she does not have this curse removed in the next twenty-four hours, she will die. Oh my god, like alright.

SPEAKER_02

Ladies bring her the news.

SPEAKER_19

In the same vein. Joanna of her strength. We'll need a long rest to cure that as well. That's eight of twenty-four.

SPEAKER_02

So can you do it? Can you remove her? I don't think so.

SPEAKER_10

Or I guess four.

SPEAKER_02

And if it takes four.

SPEAKER_10

So four of twenty-four. We have we have time to let Joanna rest, regain her strength. And then we uh rush, or we can leave her and uh maybe Orion at the inn, and then you me and Val will rush over to Lady Solwood.

SPEAKER_02

Yes. Both these two need protected as much as we can uh manage. Maybe Orion, you could keep Joe safe while we attend to Val.

SPEAKER_03

I could. Um you could also leave Val with me while you look for somebody and bring them to her. I'm afraid that if you bring Val along, you may uh encounter some danger.

SPEAKER_16

Well the tower is not far. Travel cautiously.

SPEAKER_02

Back just Lady Soul would perhaps as quick as possible. I fear that it would just her cure may be in the tower.

SPEAKER_10

And I fear Lady Soul may be powerful enough or will have supplies there to help remove this card.

SPEAKER_06

Let's hope so.

SPEAKER_19

So are we splitting up? Is that what I heard?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I'll take Joanna to the end. To the end.

SPEAKER_19

Okay. But going to Shadowdale Town. Yes. Okay. So as you make your way out of the tomb of Demara, you grab the Silver Star family and the frog if you want to. And return. It's a couple hours travel, uh, two hours to get there now that you know exactly the path to follow back. You arrive back in Shadowdale town with your goals in mind to not only get your reward, but to save the two girls that you've been counting on and have had your back throughout the whole campaign. You must have theirs at this moment. Uh and that's where we're gonna end our session. Just in time for the pumpkin contest.

SPEAKER_03

The silver stars are high priests of Saluna. They're clerics. Can they remove curses?

SPEAKER_18

They the like I said like I said before, the Silver Star family is different from the Silver Stars.

SPEAKER_03

I didn't know if that was confirmed. Oh my god. That was scary. Fucking horrifying.

SPEAKER_10

Jesus Christ.

SPEAKER_03

I haven't I don't think I've been shadows in a long time.

SPEAKER_19

And that's why Bone Nasher was so easy. Well, it wasn't really that easy, but radiant damage. He was resistant to so much, but the radiant damage fucked him. Was he vulnerable to that?

SPEAKER_03

Not vulnerable, but he just that was the one like 40 HP or 50 HP.

SPEAKER_19

But was resistant and immune to like everything except for radiant. And they did like 18.

SPEAKER_03

I don't know if I was gonna do that, but I think I'll carry her.

SPEAKER_19

But yeah, the mummy and the shadows in combination. Shadows? Yeah.

SPEAKER_20

Like in Straw when we fought shadows multiple times, that fucking draining crypto was a four strength. Yeah. I hate shadows, man.

SPEAKER_19

Yeah. If I would have hit literally, if you weren't resistant, you would have died immediately. And if I didn't roll two ones on on the D4s, you would have been dead.

SPEAKER_02

Love this game. Love this game.

SPEAKER_19

Literally so close. You're carrying a board.

SPEAKER_02

If I didn't create an illusion. We fed the frog the orb. No! What's a super evil frog gonna do?

SPEAKER_00
