SE07 EP11 - The Bell Tolls For Thee

[00:00:02] Speaker A: Welcome, friends and adventurers to another episode of Dungeons and Blaggards. I am the dungeon Master, Robulon. Joining me in no particular order are the players. Brandon! [00:00:16] Speaker B: I am Ekurook Punschley, half orc blood hunter, Level 10, Dark Lord. [00:00:24] Speaker A: Eric! [00:00:25] Speaker C: I play Dr. Zozo Brightfeather, Level 10 Aarakocra artificer potionsmith. [00:00:32] Speaker D: Caleb! [00:00:34] Speaker E: I'm Kaitoa Tata. I'm a level 10 warforged barbarian. [00:00:40] Speaker A: Tomo! [00:00:41] Speaker G: Hey there. I'm playing Steve Tehuman. I am a human Gloomstalker Ranger, level six, Battle Master Fighter, level three. And a little bit of Rogue, level one. Vale! [00:00:56] Speaker H: I am playing Johawk. He is a gnoll champion fighter and totem warrior barbarian. [00:01:05] Speaker I: Hey, I'm Braeden. I'm playing half elf Beleg Dygar, hexblade warlock. [00:01:20] Speaker A: Previously on Dungeons and Blaggards. [00:01:25] Speaker B: Okay, well I'm going to finish off this Pompous. Rook has a taste and he wants to finish him. Push him off. This is Blaggards! Does it finish him or is he still alive as I boot him off? [00:01:45] Speaker A: Well, Rook, as you look for the result of your actions, as you look down, a flying steed - it looks like a mechanical horse with wings - swoops in and catches not Pompous Pimpernel. They've changed. It's Nafre. I knew it. Of course, you said it. And he is gone. [00:02:22] Speaker G: Oh, I can't believe that he got away again. [00:02:25] Speaker E: Oh, Steve mushes his like little fingertips, like worms. [00:02:31] Speaker G: No, hold on to one of his fingertips. Somebody pocket it and I can use it for scrying. [00:02:35] Speaker E: I mean, Nafre's the bad guy, right? And we chopped off his hands and beat the shit out of him. So now we're. We can all go, right? [00:02:42] Speaker G: We're fighting the wizards. [00:02:43] Speaker C: I don't think there's much. There's much coming back from this. Yeah, I think there was a lot of decisions made in the last few seconds that everyone's a little bit culpable here [00:02:59] Speaker A: and now. The continuation of Dungeons and Blaggards [00:03:05] Speaker H: and Rook. Anything else in your move? [00:03:07] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm gonna move to outside on the balcony. As far away from mimic chest as I can. I guess the only thing would be is has the unseen servant picked up anything? Weapons, information? [00:03:26] Speaker D: Fingertips? [00:03:26] Speaker H: Yes. Fingertips, yes. They picked up a brass brooch. A brooch of the twin brass towers that fell off of Pompous Pimpernel when he stumbled to the ground. And so out of the pool of blood, you now have a blood caked brass brooch. [00:03:49] Speaker D: Hey, I got one of those too. [00:03:52] Speaker B: I'm gonna put it in my adventures pack. [00:03:55] Speaker D: Brooch Twins. [00:03:56] Speaker B: Keep searching. [00:03:58] Speaker H: So, yeah, Johawk, you're up. [00:04:00] Speaker F: I'm gonna keep swinging. I'm still raging, right? [00:04:06] Speaker H: Yeah. Roll that athletics again. And now you really want to gain momentum. [00:04:11] Speaker F: I should have rolled last time with advantage, but I didn't, so I will do it this time. That's what I like to see.25. [00:04:21] Speaker H: Okay, so in this next couple of swings, the chain's about 90ft, so you can easily that this thing will go into the center of either of the brass towers. Where do you want to aim for? [00:04:38] Speaker F: I want to aim for the tower with the high magi. [00:04:43] Speaker H: Okay. The western tower it is. And there's Zozo perched on top of your, you know, your axel for your little swingy swing maneuver here. And on the very last swing, how would you like to dismount? [00:04:59] Speaker F: Oh, for a 25, I think I'd do a flip. Like it swoops up above the balcony, and then I flip. I guess that would be backwards. And then land, [00:05:14] Speaker B: superhero land. [00:05:15] Speaker F: on the edge of the balcony, [00:05:17] Speaker H: and you land on your feet. [00:05:24] Speaker F: Mm. [00:05:25] Speaker H: You there, Zozo. Now would see Johawk. Am I right in saying, Johawk, you are the first to make it over here? Okay. [00:05:39] Speaker F: I knew this would happen. [00:05:40] Speaker D: Little barbarian party over there. [00:05:42] Speaker F: What did that expend? Did that expend my movement? Did that expend my action? [00:05:47] Speaker H: It definitely ate into one of your attacks, but I think you can attack. [00:05:52] Speaker F: I can move too. [00:05:54] Speaker H: You've landed 10ft away, like, well, let's say equidistant from Nim and Yllato. And about five feet closer to Ossifer. [00:06:05] Speaker F: I will be. Who's the one that broke the news? It was Nim, right? Pulling out my brother's flail, bashing him upside the head. [00:06:16] Speaker H: Okay. And as Nim says, the best of all possible outcomes. And your flail comes down [00:06:28] Speaker F: for a 10. [00:06:29] Speaker H: That does not hit. [00:06:32] Speaker F: action surge. Two more attacks. [00:06:34] Speaker H: Okay. [00:06:35] Speaker F: It's amazing. [00:06:38] Speaker H: Okay, what was that, Joe? [00:06:39] Speaker F: 22 versus AC. [00:06:40] Speaker H: That hits Nim [00:06:42] Speaker F: 8, and then I think plus two from raging. So that's 10 damage. [00:06:47] Speaker H: So this is some close range melee. [00:06:50] Speaker F: Does he go down? [00:06:52] Speaker H: I mean, there's a horrifying whimper. And through the bubbling acid damage from the prismatic spray, Nim is totally taken off of his little levitating position. You smash him into the ground. [00:07:09] Speaker C: I think Nim was hit by lightning damage. It was Ossifer that got the acid. [00:07:14] Speaker H: the other way [00:07:14] Speaker F: around. [00:07:16] Speaker D: No, Ossifer got Lightning [00:07:18] Speaker H: got lightning. Nim got acid. [00:07:21] Speaker G: Yeah, yeah. A lot of got [00:07:22] Speaker D: fire. A lot of got fired. [00:07:24] Speaker H: A lot of go fire. And Noel, you did pick out a deep gnome wizard. Who. Who mentioned. Yes. The destruction of the. The central Baheru. [00:07:35] Speaker F: So for purposes of Gnoll, he didn't. He didn't get reduced to zero, did he? [00:07:42] Speaker H: No. No [00:07:44] Speaker F: swinging again. I should retire this die as well. Is it not good? [00:07:51] Speaker H: That is not gonna hit, [00:07:53] Speaker F: man. [00:07:54] Speaker E: Just so stoked to be in the fray. [00:07:57] Speaker D: Yeah, [00:07:59] Speaker F: I'm content with 10 days. [00:08:00] Speaker H: Okay, you are swinging wildly. And you see the wizard Nim no more. Joe's hulking frame now obscures. Where did that little wizard go, Ossifer? Beside Yllato. Beside. And you are up. Mimic chest. Mimic chest. Do random thing. Okay. Coming right for ya, Rook. [00:08:29] Speaker D: How far is it away from Rook? [00:08:30] Speaker B: Yeah, how far away? [00:08:32] Speaker H: It dashes the 30 or so feet. [00:08:36] Speaker D: Hold on. It can only move. Oh yeah. It can reach. Never mind. [00:08:42] Speaker H: Rook, your blood stained weapon there. It seems to kind of be maybe going for that. [00:08:52] Speaker B: Kaitoa still have it grappled. [00:08:54] Speaker D: I got it on a 20 leash and you're 20ft away from me. So you do [00:09:00] Speaker H: it. Is fish hooked by Kaitoa and you're precariously close to the edge. [00:09:07] Speaker D: Yeah. If you were 10ft further away, it wouldn't have hit you. [00:09:12] Speaker B: Well, you could stop it. [00:09:14] Speaker D: Mm mm. Not my turn. [00:09:16] Speaker H: Okay, so you guys know this to be the mimic chest of Bahrtio. It is still full of barf and four grand. And as it rushes towards Rook. It's not gonna hit you, rook. [00:09:40] Speaker B: I sidestep. [00:09:41] Speaker H: It has come right up to your five foot range though. But whiffled as you dodge. Out of the way. Kaitoa, you're up. [00:09:50] Speaker B: No. Kaitoa, throw him off the edge. Grapple. Throw it off the edge. Come on. [00:09:59] Speaker D: The mimic chest. [00:10:01] Speaker B: Yep. [00:10:01] Speaker D: No way. It's full of gold. [00:10:03] Speaker B: Well, you can pick it up on the ground afterwards. [00:10:07] Speaker D: Yeah. Okay, so I'm going to. I think Steve had a really good idea that I heard him yell. That could control the mimic chest. Maybe. Steve, do you think you can control the mimic chest? I can try. Okay, so I'm going to I guess move next to Beleg and because it's on a 20 foot rope, it would drag the chest with me and so it would be 20ft away from me. [00:10:42] Speaker H: A most dangerous pull toy. [00:10:45] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:10:46] Speaker H: Okay. [00:10:46] Speaker E: That's the title. [00:10:48] Speaker H: That's a good episode title. Yeah. [00:10:51] Speaker D: Yeah. I do want to disconnect from it so I'm gonna try and tug it as hard as I can to get it to move away from Rook, but also free myself. [00:11:00] Speaker H: Okay, that feels like strength. Raw strength. Roll. Yeah. [00:11:05] Speaker D: Oh, fuck. Carpet die. Where'd it go? [00:11:09] Speaker G: Carpet diem. Seize the tray. [00:11:14] Speaker D: 13 plus sevens. [00:11:16] Speaker H: That's good. Carpet diem. [00:11:20] Speaker D: non natty 20. [00:11:22] Speaker H: I think I would allow that you've got this as far as 20ft. I think that if you wanted to reel it in the max, you could. [00:11:32] Speaker D: Yeah, I want to move it right beside me. [00:11:35] Speaker H: Okay. There is a horrifying screeching as it is snapping and slavering at the voltaic machete. Oh, it wants that blood. But now it is screeching back on the back on the brass floors. And it is near you Kaitoa. Back nearer towards the party. No longer near the edge. [00:11:58] Speaker D: I'm gonna. I guess that was one action to reel it in. I'm gonna use my second action to hack the arrow so I can save my rope but be detached from it. [00:12:11] Speaker H: So you're gonna sever the grappling shot? [00:12:14] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:12:15] Speaker H: Okay. [00:12:16] Speaker D: And then. Yeah, and then I'm gonna move right beside Beleg so that he can get me over. [00:12:24] Speaker H: Yeah, [00:12:28] Speaker C: yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:12:30] Speaker H: So, Steve, you mentioned here that you might have a plan. [00:12:35] Speaker E: Yeah, I mean, my. My plan needs an action. Needs. If we're in combat, constant action. [00:12:41] Speaker H: Okay, well, look, you know what? Beleg, let's. Let's throw to you, man. It is your move. What are you doing? As Kaitoa yanks the chest into a safer range here. And he's coming and giving you a bro hug. [00:12:54] Speaker G: You want to go, buddy? [00:12:55] Speaker D: Oh, yeah. [00:12:57] Speaker G: All right. We do the Nestea splash and dimension door over to the other side. [00:13:09] Speaker H: Okay. In relation to Johawk. Where are you trying to go? In relation. [00:13:13] Speaker E: Yeah, [00:13:14] Speaker D: Tell me where you're gonna drop. [00:13:15] Speaker G: I don't have Roll20, so Kaitoa, [00:13:21] Speaker D: drop me right behind Nim. [00:13:23] Speaker G: Yep. All right. We drop right behind Nim and then we land. And who. How are the three Magi looking? [00:13:38] Speaker D: Nim's pretty acid and bloody and gotten like [00:13:44] Speaker F: bashed. [00:13:45] Speaker D: Shot him. Got shot Bashed in acid. Ossifer got poisoned. [00:13:53] Speaker C: fire and lightning. Yeah. [00:13:55] Speaker D: 25 lightning damage and a lotto's got like 68 fire damage, but that's it. [00:14:01] Speaker G: Okay. So [00:14:02] Speaker D: I'd say Nim's the first one to go down. [00:14:05] Speaker G: You got control of Nim there. [00:14:08] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:14:12] Speaker G: All right. [00:14:13] Speaker D: Or I. Yeah, I'm gonna hit Nim first. Yeah. [00:14:16] Speaker G: Wait. I'm gonna cast my Hex Blade curse as a bonus action on Yllato. [00:14:23] Speaker H: Okay. You glance over To Yllato. Hex Blade Curse. [00:14:27] Speaker G: I point [00:14:29] Speaker E: finger wiggle. [00:14:31] Speaker G: And I'm gonna go over to her, get up in her grill. [00:14:37] Speaker D: Oh, you're staying over for the fun? [00:14:40] Speaker G: Oh, buddy. I'm staying over the fun. [00:14:42] Speaker D: Sweet. [00:14:43] Speaker G: I got my glaive out, buddy. Yeah. Hexblade Curse has been laid. Glaive is out. And I'm gonna go attack the chick who made you make a charisma save. Because that's my shit. [00:14:53] Speaker D: Yeah, Charisma saves. All day. [00:14:59] Speaker G: All day. Not a big deal. I think that's the end of my turn. [00:15:04] Speaker D: Oh, I should have gotten you to drop me on Nim. Just fucking land on him. Yeah, you would have fallen on him too. And been prone. Probably. [00:15:15] Speaker G: I don't have the hit point pool that you have, man. [00:15:18] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:15:19] Speaker G: I'm squidgy. [00:15:21] Speaker H: So you guys are plainly aware here of the absence of a hatch going downwards. There is a hatch, a brass hatch above you guys, Beleg and Kaitoa. There is Johawk as well. And his flail is coated in orange acid. And we are back to the Eastern Tower with Dr. Zozo. Sorry, sorry. We are back to the midpoint between the Eastern Tower and the Western Tower. Dr. Zozo's still perched on the rod. [00:16:00] Speaker C: Yeah. She is going to load a acid round into the thunder cannon. [00:16:09] Speaker H: Okay. [00:16:10] Speaker C: And she's going to take aim at the Yllato's bell. [00:16:16] Speaker E: Oh, [00:16:17] Speaker C: Gonna try to shoot that right off her. [00:16:20] Speaker H: All right. Shoot her right in the bell end [00:16:24] Speaker H: She is right now still suffering from the residual flame of the prismatic spray, but that bell is a easy target. [00:16:34] Speaker D: Too bad the bell didn't like melt onto her head or something. [00:16:38] Speaker E: Be awesome. [00:16:40] Speaker C: That's a non natural 20 to hit. [00:16:43] Speaker H: That is [00:16:43] Speaker C: 21. [00:16:44] Speaker H: That's hits [00:16:46] Speaker D: non natural 21. [00:16:48] Speaker C: So that is. Oh, just one damage from the bullet. And from the acid. Get 21 damage from the acid. [00:17:00] Speaker H: Oh, boy. So what do you think has happened here? [00:17:04] Speaker C: Yeah, I think the bullet probably just kind of dinged off the bell. But it left the acid on it. Like the acid sprayed out and just ate into the bell. Actually, does the bell count as a structure? [00:17:20] Speaker H: Definitely a structure. This headdress is. [00:17:23] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:17:24] Speaker H: Ridiculously large. [00:17:26] Speaker C: So then it's double damage. [00:17:29] Speaker H: Okay. [00:17:30] Speaker C: 42 acid. [00:17:31] Speaker D: Damn. [00:17:34] Speaker H: Oh. Imagine a spray of acid there as it sort of pings off of the bell. But then like a delayed fuse. It's like an acid grenade goes off and blows up the headdress. The headdress is gone in a caustic combustion. Sweet. Okay...Dustbin. Anything else in your move. [00:18:05] Speaker D: The Bell tolls for thee, bitch. [00:18:17] Speaker C: Can we take a quick look at the rod I'm standing on? Do a quick inspection of it? [00:18:22] Speaker H: Yes, you can. Yeah, you could roll ability on the rod [00:18:29] Speaker C: investigation. That's 15 investigation. [00:18:36] Speaker H: Okay, well, you know this to be the immovable rod. There is only one. This is it. And it cannot be moved. [00:18:48] Speaker C: Yeah, [00:18:49] Speaker H: you have read and of course, artificers well learned. Certainly somebody with, you know, a certificate of good standing into the artificers guild would know that this is one of the components that apparently was used to tie together the disruption of the world at the end of the last age. So 2,000 years ago, this rod seemed to be a component of a stabilization of some tumultuous time in the world. [00:19:31] Speaker B: It's Rube's penis. [00:19:35] Speaker H: And Rook shouts. It can only be Rook. Yeah. Dr. Zozo, your perception of this rod, it is a virtual underpinning to this reality, and you are stunned that you are using this as a battle platform against wizards. [00:20:01] Speaker C: Oh, yeah. Okay, cool. [00:20:04] Speaker H: You are up. [00:20:05] Speaker C: And does it have any. Any kind of features on it, or is it just a smooth, featureless rod? [00:20:11] Speaker H: It is just as you describe. It is a smooth, featureless rod. There's no indication of, you know, what's left or right. It is of a dark red brown color. [00:20:24] Speaker D: No hairs. I knew you were gonna say that. [00:20:28] Speaker C: Okay. [00:20:30] Speaker D: It's like someone's gonna say veins. [00:20:35] Speaker G: Hey, man. Sometimes rods are vascular. [00:20:38] Speaker D: Yep. [00:20:41] Speaker H: And Rube. Rube now is popping away, but with nobody to translate except for you, Dr. Zozo. You do feel like Rube is congratulating you on your use of their Rube's reactionary rod. Like you're getting a little rod applause over there from the cube. [00:21:05] Speaker C: I give Rube a thumbs up. [00:21:09] Speaker H: Feathered thumbs up. [00:21:12] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:21:12] Speaker H: Okay. The little gnoll pup goes over and says, master...? And is surprised to see that Master kaitoa and Master beleg are gone. He goes over, it looks like, and pulls at your poncho, Steve. And says, what shall I do? [00:21:34] Speaker E: What? [00:21:37] Speaker H: Okay. Squandered. And little gnoll pup without any. [00:21:42] Speaker E: I didn't hear what he said. What did he say? [00:21:44] Speaker H: Oh, it's perfect. Without any better information. You know, Steve is totally aloof. Doesn't hear the gnoll pup. And let's see what they're trying to do. They are trying to blast all the way across the distance. Let's see what happens. [00:22:04] Speaker E: That pup's got moxie. [00:22:06] Speaker H: Oh, this is ill advised, Zozo. [00:22:09] Speaker D: Yeah, I was gonna say he's gonna knock Zozo off [00:22:12] Speaker H: Can you make an accidental. Oh, this gnoll. Like, he realizes his error. Can you make a strength save or be pushed 15ft away? [00:22:22] Speaker C: Okay, [00:22:23] Speaker H: but it's a low DC. Beat a 13. [00:22:28] Speaker C: Yeah, I rolled a 13. [00:22:32] Speaker H: Okay, what do you do to stay on the rod? Bird on the rod. Bird on a wire. [00:22:37] Speaker C: Yeah I was in the middle of my thumbs up, and then it's got, like, a big gust of wind, and I flapped my wings and just, like, grabbed my talons around the rod. [00:22:45] Speaker F: Imagine. Imagine if you do an entire, like, flip around it. You're just holding on to it. [00:22:51] Speaker C: Yeah, I think that's what happens. Yeah. [00:22:52] Speaker H: Oh, that is so what happens. That is gnoll pup. He is done. And Rook, you're up. [00:23:06] Speaker E: Did. [00:23:09] Speaker E: Steve get skipped? [00:23:10] Speaker B: Yeah, I thought Steve. [00:23:12] Speaker H: You're right. It's Mr. Steve. [00:23:17] Speaker E: All right. Steve is gonna turn to the chest, and he's going to with a flare of the poncho cast disguise self. So the poncho covers his face for a second, and then he's Bahrtio. Hey, Chest. Bahrtio here. [00:23:37] Speaker H: Why you're acting all out of sorts? I just want to get in you, baby. [00:23:45] Speaker H: And it's always so awful with the Bahrtio sexual innuendos. And the box is right at home. The box immediately calms down. Like, it loves this filthy shit. [00:24:01] Speaker E: Yeah, good girl. That's what you like. And I'm. What I'm gonna do is a little flip of the poncho. I've also taken the poncho off, and I flip it over top of the eye. [00:24:14] Speaker H: Okay, nice. So the mimic now the legs retreat back from these horrifying claws. And the seam between the lid and the base, the teeth now sort of recede back in. And as you toss your poncho over, it is now inert, almost in the blink of an eye. Rest of the party over here on the Eastern Tower, the mimic chest is docile. [00:24:42] Speaker G: Beleg is aghast seeing Steve take his poncho off for the first time in two years. [00:24:48] Speaker E: Yeah, that's the first time since Lantin that I've been sans poncho. Steve feels a little bit bashful, a little bit naked. [00:25:04] Speaker D: Just the worst odor ever. [00:25:08] Speaker E: Oh, man. [00:25:09] Speaker E: Poncho under funk. That's my turn. [00:25:12] Speaker H: So, Steve, am I to understand have you stayed as offensive Bahrtio, or are you back to Steve now that you've covered the chest? [00:25:25] Speaker E: Chest is covered. I'm back to Steve. I don't like being Bahrtio. [00:25:28] Speaker H: Okay, yeah. It feels icky just even portraying him. [00:25:32] Speaker E: Yeah, yeah. I mean, Steve is Like, used to living out in the wilds and not showering for ages, but he just feels, like, greasier when he's Bahrtio. [00:25:41] Speaker H: I love Bahrtio's catchphrase. Hey, Box! [00:25:46] Speaker E: I just want to get in you, baby. [00:25:49] Speaker H: Okay, so you do. You snap back into Steve and Steve poncho-less is a sight to behold. This murderous young lad. [00:26:01] Speaker E: just covered in knives. Just so many bandoliers. [00:26:07] Speaker H: Like, 60 throwing spikes. [00:26:09] Speaker E: Like I'm a little adolescent machete just covered in weapons. [00:26:17] Speaker H: Okay, anything else in your move? [00:26:19] Speaker E: Nope. That's it. [00:26:20] Speaker H: Okay, Rook, you are up [00:26:23] Speaker B: now. The mimic chest is calmed down. I am going to stand down and just clean off my machete and check in with the unseen servant again. Make sure he's picked up all the fingers. [00:26:38] Speaker H: Mm, [00:26:39] Speaker B: Brought him around. And anything else? [00:26:42] Speaker H: Yeah, very dutifully, the unseen servant, your dude on the couch, he's brought. He collected, I think, three more of Pompous Pimpernel's, which you now know to be Nafre's, fingers. And it looks like the dude on the couch has been, like, maybe fraternizing with some of the unseen servants from the Dansion. And some of the Dansion servants, they're, like, ready to bring out, like, another piece of evidence. It looks like there's, like, another witness in waiting, and they're not even sure what to do now. What are you doing, Rook? [00:27:20] Speaker B: I'm gonna ask who's the next witness that was coming out. [00:27:25] Speaker H: Okay, well, immediately, [00:27:26] Speaker E: I'm gonna have a talk with them. [00:27:30] Speaker H: And, yeah, there does. There seems to be a hooded figure being led out here, Rook. You can't quite make out who it is yet, though. [00:27:41] Speaker B: Can I ask them to remove the hood? [00:27:44] Speaker H: Oh, yes, certainly. [00:27:45] Speaker B: Or I'll get my unseen servant to do it. [00:27:48] Speaker H: Oh, so your unseen servant comes and, like, pranks the hood down? [00:27:53] Speaker B: Yeah, [00:27:55] Speaker H: It is Samoc. [00:27:59] Speaker B: Oh, shit. [00:28:00] Speaker E: Oh, fuck. [00:28:02] Speaker H: And, Rook, [00:28:03] Speaker E: who is that? [00:28:03] Speaker H: You are very surprised to see the - who knows what they were - who performed the rite of the Blood Hunter on you on the island of Jaktul. This is they who, you know, sliced you with a blade and it imbued you with these Blood Hunter magics. And their hood flies off. And your unseen servant gives you a little unseen thumbs up there. [00:28:34] Speaker B: I will ask him why or what is he doing here? Samoc, what are you doing here? [00:28:41] Speaker H: He looks at you and his tongue has been cut out. [00:28:47] Speaker C: Good witness. [00:28:49] Speaker H: He does not look pleasant. He does not look good. And there's now really a strange witness stand over there. I mean, there's still Mem and he seems to be still, like, chuckling away. He's still in shackles. And so Rook is, as you say that to Samoc, he makes a couple of grunting noises and, yeah. Anything else? [00:29:17] Speaker B: I don't know. I'm gonna turn to the guys and be like, should we get the chains off of Mem? [00:29:24] Speaker G: Tell Mem to give us a little help. [00:29:26] Speaker B: Nobody says anything, so I'm not gonna do anything. Nobody answered, [00:29:31] Speaker G: but I said something [00:29:34] Speaker C: pretty far away from you. [00:29:35] Speaker B: Yeah, you sound pretty far away. [00:29:38] Speaker H: Well, Rook, you look over to the western tower crew there, and they can kind of just barely make out you're trying to communicate them. It looks like Mem, if you do look over to him, like, he's got out some little paint brushes and colors and he is painting on one of the masks with that guy who brought some of those masks. He seems to be doing some, like, arts and crafts. [00:30:04] Speaker E: Arts and shitty arts. [00:30:08] Speaker H: Okay, Johawk, you're up. [00:30:11] Speaker F: All right, I have no action surge, so I'm just gonna attack twice with the flail. And I'm flanking with kaitoa. Right? So I have advantage. 25 versus AC. [00:30:24] Speaker H: That hits. [00:30:25] Speaker F: 10 damage. Is he. Do I get my Gnoll attack? [00:30:31] Speaker H: Wailing and a flailing. No, you gotta reduce a creature to zero. [00:30:37] Speaker F: I'm gonna try again. 22. [00:30:41] Speaker H: That hits. [00:30:42] Speaker F: Ooh, that's hefty. 13 damage. [00:30:49] Speaker H: Whoa. Same target. Wailing on Nim. [00:30:56] Speaker F: Yep. Still, I hate to shoot the messenger, but Johawk doesn't. [00:30:59] Speaker H: Yeah, still obviously alive. [00:31:05] Speaker E: Still hanging in there, huh? Jeez. [00:31:08] Speaker F: I give him the old Morrowind - Why won't you die?! [00:31:15] Speaker H: Oh, boy. Well, that's gonna be ominous. [00:31:18] Speaker F: Mm. And I don't suppose I can do anything else. So that's my turn. [00:31:26] Speaker H: Okay, friends and adventurers, as those final flail assaults land onto one of these clearly compromised wizards, who would have view of this? I guess everybody. Roll a group perception and this will be our last roll of the night. [00:31:50] Speaker D: Oh, nat 20. [00:31:53] Speaker G: That's a six. [00:31:56] Speaker F: 20 total. [00:31:58] Speaker C: 21. [00:31:59] Speaker B: Gonna be a 19. [00:32:02] Speaker D: Oh, I guess mine's 25 [00:32:04] Speaker E: for Steve is. [00:32:05] Speaker D: Sorry, Robin. [00:32:07] Speaker H: Okay, so who got over 20? [00:32:09] Speaker D: I did. [00:32:10] Speaker C: Oh, sorry. I got 18. [00:32:12] Speaker F: I met 20. [00:32:13] Speaker H: Okay, well, that would make sense. That would make sense. That's it then. Just so you two then on probably. Yeah. On the edge of the Western tower, you look down and you see those bodies of the clerics of Jebda standing back up. [00:32:34] Speaker B: Oh, what is this? The Night King? [00:32:39] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:32:41] Speaker H: And so the two barbarians would notice that in this final moment, there. And then who rolled between 15 and 20? Like, who rolled above 15? [00:32:55] Speaker B: I did. [00:32:56] Speaker H: Okay. Okay. So Steve. Okay. And Zozo. [00:32:59] Speaker C: Mm. [00:33:00] Speaker H: Okay, so rest of the party. So then it's as the barbs notice, that the rest of the party notices just on the horizon where the cliffs meet the temple of Jebda. There up on the hill, you see a flying silhouette now passing out of view and over the rise roughly northwards towards the center of Tonwin [00:33:35] Speaker E: You mages are real idiots. You had Nafre here. We could have killed him. Again. [00:33:41] Speaker B: Tried to kill him. [00:33:42] Speaker G: Yeah. [00:33:43] Speaker C: Yeah, very nearly did. [00:33:46] Speaker D: So that's where we're calling it? [00:33:49] Speaker H: And that, friends and adventurers, is where we will have to leave you until the next time on Dungeons and Blaggards. [00:33:57] Speaker E: Nafre! [00:34:28] Speaker F: Very good session. [00:35:09] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:35:11] Speaker E: Are we actually gonna kill these mages, you think? [00:35:14] Speaker C: No, they haven't really done anything to us yet. [00:35:17] Speaker E: Yeah, they've just been, like, chilling and soaking damage. [00:35:21] Speaker C: Yeah, I [00:35:22] Speaker D: don't really want to give them a chance. [00:35:24] Speaker E: This guy at the bar is just getting his ass fucking kicked, but he's just, like, holding back, not doing anything. [00:35:31] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:35:32] Speaker E: And then when he does something, he ruins people. [00:35:35] Speaker D: Well. Well, the fact I got banished or whatever, like, that means they. And she did ring the bell to make that happen. [00:35:43] Speaker E: Yeah. [00:35:45] Speaker D: So it wasn't an attack of some sort. [00:35:47] Speaker E: We haven't done anything yet. [00:35:49] Speaker C: Yeah, they've had opportunities to, like, they have a spot in their initiative that's not doing it. [00:35:55] Speaker E: Slightly concerning. [00:35:57] Speaker C: Yeah, [00:35:58] Speaker E: that was a fun session. I'm. I am so worried for us, though, because these guys have just been, like, taking a kicking and they haven't done anything yet. [00:36:11] Speaker D: Well, at least I get to start next session by swinging and. Oh, am I going to swing.
