0:00:00 Brennan: Good God! Hello, and welcome back to "Dimension 20 Live! Presents Fantasy High Sophomore Year." I'm your humble dungeon master, Brennan Lee Mulligan. With me, as always are our intrepid heroes. Say hi, intrepid heroes.

0:00:12 All: Hi, intrepid heroes!

0:01:00 Siobhan: Nice! Wicked nice!

0:01:01 Brennan: With code "NICE."

0:01:03 Siobhan: Nice!

0:01:03 Ally: Wait, really?

0:01:05 Brennan: Put in the code "NICE” and you will get 69% off.

0:01:08 Lou: Is that a reference to--

0:01:10 Brennan: It's a reference to sixty-nining which is a sexual act performed--

0:01:14 Ally: By the Beatles. (laughs)

0:01:17 Siobhan: It was invented by the Beatles in 1969 and that's why it's called that.

0:01:22 Brennan: [disbelieving] Ally, is that a reference to the song, "When I'm 64?"

0:01:23 Ally: No no no no no. (laughing)

0:01:25 Murph: Don’t try to read into it.

0:01:27 Brennan: It's a reference to nothing, we have to move on!

0:01:29 Lou: I’m sorry, I didn't mean—

0:01:31 Brennan: Wonderful. Last we left off, our intrepid heroes, they were deep in the pirate city of Leviathan. They are on their sophomore year quest to retrieve the crown of the Nightmare King, having gotten a bunch of new information from the Compass Points library and its headmistress Ayda Aguefort who was befriended here in the city of Leviathan. However, Captain James Whitclaw, the Captain of the Crimson Claw, has seized the crown of the Pirate King, burnt the Ramble to the ground, and has headed off to the Row and the Ruction, which is the bicameral legislature, slash bar brawl of Leviathan. Our intrepid heroes now face off against Captain James here in the Row and the Ruction, and with that we will dive right in to our game. I'm gonna go ahead and begin to describe, just so we all have it clear in our head, the layout of the events that now lay before you. [adventurous music changes to something dark and mysterious]

0:02:35 Brennan: Ahead of you, you see a massive wooden warehouse, sputtering torches. It is a sort of ramshackle place, but it's been reinforced time and time again from all the smashing of chairs, and various bar shenanigans that have gone on here. Torches sputter not only on the wall but in the many posts that hold up the structure throughout. There is a 60 foot by 60 foot square in the middle that is the technical home of the Row, which is the giant fist fight on the ground. This is a fist fight that's been going on for a hundred and fifty years without end. The back walls are filled with bars and stools and seats, so that people that have been fist fighting can come and get a drink and relax for a little bit before they go back into the brawl, but again, that 60 foot by 60 foot square is in the center. Sort of an arena layout almost, and then above it, 15 feet above it, suspended from the various posts, is a whole bunch of rigging and netting. This rigging has various planks and barrels and wooden debris gathered throughout as well as the weapons of people that have died there. The basic idea being, if enough of your crew goes into the Row to begin to create a space that you're kind of holding, it gives enough time for people to shimmy up into the Ruction and begin fighting up there, and the Ruction, you are allowed to fight with swords and other forms of weaponry and that sort of being the higher house where decision making happens. All of this stuff again, these ‘rules’ that I'm describing, are not so much, to borrow the phrase, not so much rules as guidelines, but fundamentally.

0:04:16 Ally: So crazy how drunk you are right now.

0:04:17 Brennan: I am so blasted!

0:04:17 Ally: (crosstalk) Rum drunk.

0:04:19 Brennan: No, that is incorrect. I've never had a drink.

0:04:21 Emily: Guidelines.

0:04:25 Brennan: The idea again being, that this is the way that decisions are made informally here. Right now there is nobody in the Ruction, that upper ring, except for the three elves from Fallinel that have appeared here. They look completely serene, filled with magical energy. These are clearly some wizards and you see roaring to life in front of one of them is a large size air elemental that appears to be conjured by them. You see the fight in front of you, other sort of bystanders against the walls. Much of James's crew is sort of already waiting to go into the Row. He's standing right in front of you guys who are in the doorway. You're in this large double doors. Like, 15 foot wide door basically, at the entrance of the building, and he is standing in between you guys and the edge of the road nearest to you. We are going to jump into initiative.

0:05:29 Emily: What are? Will you remind us our initiatives?

0:05:31 Brennan: Your initiatives? Sure. I'm not gonna tell you where your enemies are going. You'll find that out as we go, but the order of the PCs is--

0:05:37 Siobhan: Brennan, won’t you tell us one of your secrets? How do you win this fight?

0:05:40 Emily: (crosstalk) How many hit points does James Whitclaw have?

0:05:43 Brennan: I shan't! Fabian, Fig, Gorgug, Adaine, Riz, and Kristen.

0:05:46 Siobhan: Oh, I have a question about this place. No weapons. (hopefully) Magic?

0:05:54 Brennan: Again, it seems that the only way these rules are enforced is people will get mad if you break them, and will try--

0:06:02 Siobhan: Right, so I will never break any of the rules! Fantastic.

0:06:05 Brennan: If the pirates see you using magic or weaponry in the Row they're going to gang up and use force to try to stop you.

0:06:14 Siobhan: So magic counts as?

0:06:15 Brennan: By the way, that's also how laws work in our real world.

0:06:17 Siobhan: Break any laws you want, as long as you don't get caught. That's the Brennan Lee Mulligan way. (peace sign)

0:06:21 Brennan: I'm just saying that all laws are actually just structured threats.

0:06:26 Lou: Sounding more and more like Captain Jack Sparrow by the minute.

0:06:31 Siobhan: So magic counts as weapons?

0:06:35 Brennan: Yes, correct.

0:06:35 Siobhan: In the law of the Row.

0:06:37 Brennan: Correct, absolutely.

0:06:37 Siobhan: The Captain Whitclaw is between us in the Row, or we are between, in front of the door?

0:06:47 Brennan: He is between you. So you guys are standing in the doorway, like you just barged into the town saloon and then he is standing literally like 10 feet in front of you guys with his pirates flanking him to each side. He's got about eight people with him that have come to menace you guys in the door while the rest of his crew is preparing to charge into the Row basically, and you see that he's got one hand on his crystal saber and the other, he's got another hand holding the crown of the Pirate King, which he holds in his left hand. We're gonna go ahead, and before we get started, the actual highest roll here with a 23 was Fabian Aramais Seacaster. Fabian.

0:07:32 Zac: Nice, Fabian!

0:07:35 Siobhan: We believe in you, man.

0:07:36 Brennan: We're gonna cover some mechanical issues that we discussed last time. You have two levels of exhaustion--

0:07:42 Lou: Yep.

0:07:43 Brennan: which means that your movement is halved—

0:07:44 Lou: Aw, sick.

0:07:45 Brennan: And you have disadvantage on all ability checks.

0:07:51 Lou: All of ‘em?

0:07:52 Brennan: That does not include saving throws or attack rolls. Those will be rolled normally, but on ability checks, yes. We're also going to go over something that we discussed outside of game that we felt was appropriate for your character, which was you have elected to lose the Champion subclass and in fact, all class features.

0:08:15 Siobhan: What?

0:08:15 Murph: Whoa.

0:08:18 Brennan: We begin combat.

0:08:20 Siobhan: What?

0:08:20 Ally: (much louder) What?

0:08:22 Emily: What about Second Wind? Fabian’s character card appears onscreen. It now reads simply “Half-elf Fighter”, and his character art is eyepatch-less and sad.

0:08:24 Brennan: What about it?

0:08:24 Emily: Gone?

0:08:25 Murph: No, that's a fighter thing, right? Or is he just not a fighter anymore?

0:08:28 Brennan: Oh no, no, no. The subclass Champion is gone and with it all class features.

0:08:32 Siobhan: You're just an NPC?

0:08:35 Brennan: You keep your proficiency bonus. You keep your hit points.

0:08:37 Ally: Wow!

0:08:40 Murph: It's a rebuilding phase. He's rebuilding.

0:08:42 Zac: You're a hireling!

0:08:42 Ally: Sometimes you can't feel your own potential.

0:08:45 Siobhan: This is not the time to have an existential crisis!

0:08:48 Emily: I love it! I love it! Woo!

0:08:49 Fabian: I wanted to leave the city! You all wanted to fight!

0:08:53 Brennan: We all know those times that are great for existential crises. This is not one of them, but when is? Fabian, you are first to act. You are the one most directly in front of Captain Whitclaw who [screeches] gets ready to charge into battle with you.

0:09:12 Lou: I look down, see the Sword of the Seacasters’ been planted at my feet by Gorgug, but then I look up, and can I make a Perception check for Chungledown Bim?

0:09:25 Brennan: Please make a Perception check. You will do this with disadvantage.

0:09:29 Murph: Oh no.

0:09:29 Lou: Great, here we go. That's gonna be a five.

0:09:31 Murph: (laughing) Chungledown Bim!

0:09:36 Brennan: You don't see Chungledown anywhere.

0:09:37 Lou: Honestly, a good thing. I'm going to grab the sword, look to Cathilda, and say,

0:09:43 Fabian: What do I do?

0:09:48 Brennan: She looks at you. Cathilda, wearing her widow's pirate uniform, has two dark steel sabers, like scimitar-type swords in her hand. Goes,

0:10:01 Cathilda: You fight boy! You fight now!

0:10:03 Lou: I would like to… If I move backwards, will I take an attack of opportunity?

0:10:10 Brennan: You will not if you move back.

0:10:12 Lou: Great. I'm gonna take, I look and go

0:10:14 Fabian: (nervously) Okay,

0:10:15 Lou: And I'm gonna take 10 feet back and then fire my hand crossbow.

0:10:21 Brennan: Copy that. Go ahead and take your attack. This is on Captain Jim?

0:10:23 Lou: Yes. That's, it's still plus 8, so 14.

0:10:31 Brennan: 14 does not hit. That is your attack. [mimics crossbow] Hand crossbow fires off. We now are going to move to, one of the elves is going to act.

0:10:50 Murph: You’ve only got one attack now, 'cause you're not a fighter? Lou nods.

0:10:52 Zac: Oh my God.

0:10:52 Murph: Yikes!

0:10:55 Siobhan: Yikes!

0:10:56 Emily: You are wild, I love you! (whole group laughs)

0:10:59 Emily: Can't get over this!

0:11:02 Zac: This is so cool.

0:11:04 Emily: I know. Who knew it'd be cool to be?

0:11:06 Zac: Stupid.

0:11:08 Ally: The worst.

0:11:08 Lou: I'm so weak. (crosses his arms coolly over his chest) It's kind of my thing. You know? I'm kind of tortured.

0:11:14 Siobhan: You’re gonna get your brain eaten!

0:11:16 Lou: Yeah, well okay.

0:11:18 Gorgug: We're not gonna let his brain get eaten!

0:11:20 Adaine: You're right! Friends don't let friends get their brain eaten by their father's mortal enemies.

0:11:28 Brennan: Okay.

0:11:30 Murph: Meanwhile, I'm like hiding in the rafters.

0:11:32 Riz: Fabian no! Don't be a coward!

0:11:37 Zac: Spider-manning.

0:11:38 Brennan: Incredible. You see one of the elves basically rears up and creates a shimmering globe around themselves and the other elves that are with them. As they do that you see that the giant air elemental that they appear to be commanding surges forward. As it does so, you see, I'm going to need everybody in a certain radius to make some attack rolls. Sorry, some saving throws. I'm gonna need Gorgug, Fig, and Adaine, to all go ahead and make for me if you would, a DC13 strength saving throw.

0:12:31 Emily: Oh dear.

0:12:32 Siobhan: Minus 1 to strength, so that’s good.

0:12:34 Zac: Not in a rage yet right?

0:12:35 Brennan: You are not in a rage.

0:12:37 Emily: Oh, I need a good roll.

0:12:37 Siobhan: Oh, I got a 15.

0:12:39 Emily: Oh, got a 19, dirty 20, baby!

0:12:39 Zac: I got 11.

0:12:42 Murph: Whoa, good.

0:12:42 Lou: Everybody did okay.

0:12:45 Brennan: Incredible.

0:12:46 Zac: You said DC-13?

0:12:46 Brennan: DC-13. You got an 11?

0:12:48 Zac: 11.

0:12:48 Brennan: Okay, hold on one second. Gorgug, you take 15 points of damage and you are flung 20 feet to the left and you take another 3 points of damage as that happens. Everyone else takes only 7 points of damage. Fig and Adaine take seven points of damage, and you are not flung away and knocked prone. Gorgug, you are prone as well. That's going to be...

0:13:25 Emily: That was from air elemental, or is that another?

0:13:29 Brennan: Air elemental lands and (whoosh) spins into a vortex and starts try to hurl all of you in various directions but Sandra Lynn, Adaine, and Fig, are not hurled. Gorgug is tossed 20 feet to the left.

0:13:37 Gorgug: Ahh!

0:13:46 Brennan: Incredible. Fig, that is going to be you.

0:13:50 Emily: Okay, all the elves are together under a little bubble, right?

0:13:54 Brennan: That's correct.

0:13:57 Emily: And the spell Shatter could potentially. I used Shatter to break into that jewelry store so can I use Shatter on a surface?

0:14:07 Brennan: You can use, Shatter is an area of effect spell, correct?

0:14:10 Emily: Yeah, but I guess what I'm saying, like what I wanna do is I want to shatter the ground under their feet so they fall into the fighting pit.

0:14:20 Brennan: They are-- Cool. Try to shatter the planks and stuff?

0:14:23 Emily: Yeah.

0:14:23 Brennan: Absolutely. Awesome. Go ahead and let me just see one thing real quick.

0:14:35 Zac: If this is what I think it is, I think that could work.

0:14:40 Emily: It's the Globe of Invulnerability. That's what I was thinking too.

0:14:43 Brennan: You throw your Shatter and the globe repels it. [makes zapping noise]

0:14:46 Emily: (whines) I hate it!

0:14:52 Brennan: Any movement.

0:14:54 Emily: Any movement? No, but I'll use bonus action to put a Hexblade curse on Whitclaw just in case Fabian needs me.

0:15:05 Brennan: Copy that. You throw your Hexblade curse on him. He doesn't get any saves from that, does he?

0:15:09 Emily: No.

0:15:10 Brennan: Cool, cool. Cool. That's going to.

0:15:16 Emily: So their globe like goes under the plank as well. I was thinking the globe would just go this way.

0:15:21 Brennan: No, it fully covers a 10 foot radius.

0:15:24 Emily: Nevermind.

0:15:27 Brennan: Awesome. You guys see that these pirates charge. That's going to be one, two.

0:15:37 Siobhan: Globe of Invulnerability is only against spells though right? You can hit them with weapon attacks?

0:15:42 Emily: Yeah.

0:15:42 Zac: You can walk through it I think.

0:15:43 Emily: You can walk through it. So I thought maybe.

0:15:46 Murph: I don't know if you can, can you...? Our characters wouldn’t—

0:15:49 Zac: (crosstalk) Our characters wouldn’t know, yeah.

0:15:49 Emily: (crosstalk) (making a circle with her fingers) I guess I wasn't thinking globe.

0:15:50 Siobhan: (crosstalk )They might, they’ve been at school for a year.

0:15:50 Murph: Maybe you can do an Arcana check or something.

0:15:53 Emily: I was thinking maybe it was just over the thing and I could do it under them,

0:15:53 Murph: (to Siobhan) You’re the only character that would know, I think.

0:15:54 Siobhan: Yeah.

0:15:54 Emily: But I didn't realize it was a circle.

0:15:56 Siobhan: Yeah, it's like a full globe.

0:15:57 Emily: That’s where I was wrong.

0:16:00 Brennan: Okay, we're gonna have Fig, even with this air elemental around you, four pirates run up to take attacks on you from James's crew. As they rush up...

0:16:15 Emily: Yes, because they recognize I've got some power here. Threatened.

0:16:21 Brennan: Armor class 16. That's a good armor class to now have.

0:16:24 Zac: You have 16?

0:16:24 Emily: Yep, because I took that level of warlock. Hexblade warlock so I could have a shield.

0:16:33 Zac: Oh.

0:16:36 Brennan: (rolling several times) That's going to be...

0:16:42 Emily: I'm gonna Shield.

0:16:42 Brennan: You Shield?

0:16:44 Emily: Shield.

0:16:45 Brennan: Awesome. Only one of these attacks is going to move through to hit you. It deals 7 points of damage to Fig. What are you at?

0:16:52 Emily: I am at 41.

0:16:54 Brennan: Awesome. One of them runs up, takes some swings.

0:17:00 Emily: You know what? I'm also gonna Hellish Rebuke that guy. Oh wait no, I already used my reaction with Shield. Nevermind, I'm not going to.

0:17:08 Brennan: You use your reaction with Shield. One of them takes some swings at Cathilda. She parries the blade out of the way. These guys are now gonna take some swings on Gorgug who is prone so they're gonna get advantage on these.

0:17:20 Zac: Do I? I was flung pretty far, I think.

0:17:24 Brennan: No, you were flung, hit, and now you're prone, and they're gonna take advantage on their swings on you.

0:17:27 Zac: Sucks.

0:17:31 Murph: Do people have area of effect stuff?

0:17:34 Zac: I do.

0:17:34 Emily: Yeah.

0:17:35 Siobhan: I do. Yeah. I have one.

0:17:37 Murph: Because I can only hit one person as a time for a lot of damage. That's kind of not great for me to go after the pirates but these guys are gonna whittle us down if they stick around.

0:17:45 Siobhan: Yeah, I don't have that many.

0:17:50 Emily: I was thinking I could break the elves' concentration and get rid of the air elemental, but again.

0:17:57 Brennan: That's gonna be nine, 14, 21, 25. 38 points of damage to Gorgug.

0:18:11 Zac: That's not half, because I'm not in a rage.

0:18:12 Brennan: That's not half, because you're not in a rage.

0:18:13 Zac: 38?

0:18:14 Brennan: 38. What's Gorgug at?

0:18:17 Zac: Now, I had 94. So I'm at 56?

0:18:24 Brennan: That is correct.

0:18:24 Murph: That makes sense, yeah.

0:18:26 Zac: Sheesh.

0:18:28 Siobhan: Wow.

0:18:29 Brennan: Pow, pow, pow, pow! As they all rain blows down.

0:18:31 Gorgug: Let me get mad real quick!

0:18:36 Brennan: (laughs) Incredible. These guys got very good initiatives. I am sorry to say.

0:18:44 Ally: No, you're not.

0:18:45 Siobhan: Are you sorry? Are you really sorry?

0:18:45 Ally: No, you're frickin' not.

0:18:48 Siobhan: A little eyebrow twitch.

0:18:50 Brennan: You see.

0:18:50 Lou: A classic tell.

0:18:54 Brennan: Tracker, snarls and says,

0:18:54 Tracker: All right, I got you.

0:19:00 Brennan: Reaches in to begin to create this bubble of twilight around all of you. The most serene looking, youngest of the elves, this young Elven maiden with long brown braided hair in a white gown reaches up and Tracker vanishes.

0:19:18 Siobhan: What?

0:19:19 Zac: She was.

0:19:19 Murph: She banished her?

0:19:21 Zac: Banished?

0:19:24 Siobhan: Can you roll to get out of banishment? I don't think you can, right? I think it lasts for a minute.

0:19:27 Murph: Or break her concentration.

0:19:29 Emily: Yeah, I was gonna say.

0:19:30 Siobhan: Oh, break her concentration. I think that you're the only one that has a ranged weapon. I think you're the only one that can do it.

0:19:38 Zac: I have a hand ax but it's probably not.

0:19:41 Ally: How far away are they, in feet you would say?

0:19:44 Brennan: These guys from you? I would say, from you, they're about one, two, three, four, five, six. These guys are about 50 feet away from you guys and then up about 15 feet. Gorgug, that's gonna be you.

0:20:05 Zac: I go into a rage. (all laugh)

0:20:09 Zac: I want to yell to Gilear.

0:20:12 Gorgug: Gilear!

0:20:13 Gilear: (strained) Yes?

0:20:14 Gorgug: Get in the van and get Garthy.

0:20:17 Gilear: Very well! I shall abscond at once to collect Garthy O'Brien. You sure you don't need my help here?

0:20:24 Gorgug: You are so great…

0:20:26 Fig: Gilear, stay safe!

0:20:27 Gorgug: I think that'd be a great asset if you would get somewhere.

0:20:31 Emily: Why haven't we got him some armor?

0:20:35 Murph: That would just encourage us to bring him into battle. He needs to leave.

0:20:38 Zac: Then I, Gorgug will stand. I don't get hit right if I stand?

0:20:47 Brennan: No, you can stand up, and not trigger an attack of opportunity.

0:20:50 Zac: How many pirates are around me?

0:20:51 Brennan: There's three of them around you that are wailing on you.

0:20:55 Zac: I'm trying to decide if it makes sense to. Okay, so to get to the second level, you would have to jump up there or be lifted?

0:21:05 Brennan: Jump or climb one of the posts into the Ruction.

0:21:08 Zac: Okay, I will... (sigh) How many pirates are there total on his squad?

0:21:16 Brennan: It looks like he's cordoned off about eight just to fight you guys. The rest are going to try to clear a path through the Row. When these ones rushed you, the whole rest of his crew, “Yaaargh”, started rushing into the Row. Left their weapons at their side and just started beating the hell out of pirates in the Row.

0:21:34 Zac: Does it makes sense to go for the elves immediately?

0:21:38 Siobhan: I mean if you can get to them.

0:21:39 Murph: If you can get up there, yeah.

0:21:40 Zac: I think I might have to just.

0:21:41 Siobhan: You are surrounded by guys.

0:21:42 Zac: I wanna take an attack on these pirates in front of me, just to see if I can get to it.

0:21:47 Murph: You have two attacks right?

0:21:48 Zac: Yeah, yeah. I'm just gonna take an attack.

0:21:49 Murph: (offscreen, crosstalk) Yeah, so you could mow through ‘em a little bit.

0:21:50 Zac: I'll take an attack on the pirate right in front of me.

0:21:53 Brennan: Go for it.

0:21:56 Zac: That would be 23.

0:21:56 Brennan: Definitely hits.

0:21:59 Zac: First attack, and then the second attack is 24.

0:22:02 Brennan: Yep, hits.

0:22:07 Zac: First attack would be 16 damage.

0:22:12 Brennan: He's messed up right away.

0:22:13 Zac: Second hit is, 14 damage.

0:22:18 Brennan: You rise up from prone. These guys all trying to stab you on the ground, and suddenly as you stand up, you put your headphones on, and all of a sudden, (metal music)

0:22:33 Pirates: Yar, what be this blasted devilry!

0:22:36 Gorgug: Um, it's a pretty sick playlist. (axe swing)

0:22:40 Brennan: Hwah! Decapitated! Flies back.

0:22:42 Zac: I'm in a frenzy!

0:22:42 Emily: Can I steal his soul?

0:22:44 Brennan: Yes, you absolutely can.

0:22:45 Zac: I'm gonna frenzy. Then I'm gonna take one more attack. Another 23 to hit,

0:22:52 Brennan: That’s gonna hit for sure.

0:22:54 Zac: And then this one, frenzy's the same amount of damage as the regular?

0:22:58 Brennan: Yeah regular attack.

0:23:00 Zac: That's just 10.

0:23:02 Brennan: Okay, cool. You do 10 points of damage. That guy's badly injured, and any other movement or ability, that's your action and bonus action. Are you gonna stay planted where you are, or?

0:23:13 Zac: If I could, without taking a disengage, be closer, to the rest of the group? Well… Maybe I'll stay over here to be a little more spread out.

0:23:20 Brennan: For sure. Cool, cool, cool. Awesome. That is your turn. You see, okay. I am going to need a saving throw. Okay, I'm going to need a...

0:23:53 Lou: (having been headbanging for some time) This is wild music.

0:23:54 Brennan: I know, this is--

0:23:56 Zac: Only I am listening.

0:23:59 Adaine: No, we're all listening to it. We can all hear it through your headphones

0:24:00 Gorgug: You can hear my headphones?

0:24:00 Brennan: I'm gonna need a Constitution saving throw from Adaine.

0:24:06 Siobhan: Haven't even gone yet. 9.

0:24:09 Murph: Fuck.

0:24:11 Siobhan: Can I have Boggy help me? No, it's not even my turn yet, so he can't have chosen to do it. (music changes to a different metal song)

0:24:22 Brennan: Not even your turn yet. Hold on one second.

0:24:23 Lou: Sick playlist. (nodding his head to the beat)

0:24:27 Brennan: Cool. (smiles down at his laptop)

0:24:28 Lou: Stop smiling like that! Put that smile away.

0:24:33 Brennan: Oh, I love this spell. You see that an elf dressed in black robes, porcelain skin, jet black hair, covering one eye, gestures to you and says,

0:24:45 ElFabian: Oracle, heed the call of the Earth.

0:24:47 Brennan: And you feel your flesh begin to harden as you feel yourself begin to turn to stone.

0:24:54 Siobhan: Counterspell.

0:24:56 Brennan: Okay, this is a sixth level spell.

0:24:59 Siobhan: Yeah!

0:25:00 Brennan: This just means you're gonna have to roll.

0:25:03 Emily: Good vibes, good vibes.

0:25:04 Murph: You gotta beat a 16.

0:25:04 Siobhan: I gotta beat a 16. Then it's my spell attack bonus?

0:25:08 Ally: Roll in the box.

0:25:12 Siobhan: Just my intelligence. Intelligence saving throw or just check?

0:25:16 Lou: Roll it.

0:25:20 Siobhan: Urgh, 12.

0:25:22 Brennan: You feel your flesh begin to harden.

0:25:25 Siobhan: Fuck! Ahh, it's my final third level spell. What a waste. Used Dispel Magic to turn you back from a parrot last week.

0:25:37 Emily: (laughs) I forgot! We had a wrap-up after that.

0:25:40 Siobhan: It was fun. No, we didn't.

0:25:45 Brennan: You are not out of it yet. You are just restrained. You are slowly being turned into stone.

0:25:52 Siobhan: I can maybe still do stuff this turn.

0:25:55 Brennan: That is right. I'm gonna read the spell. If the target's body is made of flesh the creature must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save it is restrained as its flesh begins to harden. A creature spell must make another Constitution saving throw at the end of each of its turns. If it successfully saves against this spell three times, the spell ends. If it fails at save three times, it is turned to stone and petrified. So it's like a death save scenario. Very, very...

0:26:19 Siobhan: Cool.

0:26:20 Murph: So you can't really be frozen until after three rounds.

0:26:22 Siobhan: No, but I can get Boggy to get me the help actio on those saving throws. So I’ll do that.

0:26:28 Emily: At the very least, getting these, this is yet another elf that we can get those guys fucked up.

0:26:36 Brennan: That is now going to be. Yeah, these guys are. As I said, about 50 feet away from you and about 15 feet up. That is going to be. Ooh, these are now going to be your guys' allies. Then we'll just start to go.

0:26:54 Zac: Wait, that's just. Okay, we got a couple.

0:26:58 Brennan: You guys do have a couple. As you guys begin to. Do you guys see-- Gorgug, you're there rocking out. However, the first person to act as your guys' hirelings go, is of course going to be Cathilda the Black. Cathilda is going to rush up. She's going to take a bonus action disengage. Move away from the person that she's with right now and she is going to advance on Captain Jim. (pirate music) Cathilda’s character card reads “Cathilda the Black, Pirate Widow”, and she is dressed in all-black Victorian-looking pirate gear.

0:27:28 Zac: Oh yeah.

0:27:30 Lou: Come on Cathilda!

0:27:33 Brennan: Jim successfully avoids two of those attacks by throwing a Shield spell up in front of himself, but on a nat 20 Cathilda does score a hit and James is going to take—

0:27:44 Fabian: That's my maid.

0:27:49 Brennan: You see Cathilda rushes up. You see Captain James goes,

0:27:51 Whitclaw: Ho there, Cathilda the Black, you—

0:27:54 Brennan: You see she goes,

0:27:56 Cathilda: Time for talk's over.

0:27:57 Brennan: and slices one of his tentacles off. It hits the deck. Then it's going to be...

0:28:02 Ally: Can I grill him really quick? With an herb butter?

0:28:07 Siobhan: Olive oil, lemon juice.

0:28:10 Emily: I'm gonna dredge it in some bread crumbs.

0:28:12 Ally: Let's do it.

0:28:13 Zac: Maybe like a little mayo based.

0:28:15 Siobhan: Almost like a lemon mayo.

0:28:16 Ally: Yeah.

0:28:17 Lou: We'll fight off enemies while you guys cook that up.

0:28:24 Brennan: Sandra Lynn fires two arrows into one of the pirates. Looks at Gorgug, and is going to use a bonus action ability called Battle Command, and goes,

0:28:33 Sandra Lynn: Gorgug, he's— look at his guard!

0:28:35 Brennan: And the guy you already hit, you can if you wish, use your reaction, to take another swing at this guy.

0:28:42 Zac: Yeah, I wish.

0:28:44 Lou: He does indeed wish.

0:28:44 Zac: Just one more swing?

0:28:46 Brennan: One more swing.

0:28:48 Zac: That hits. 23.

0:28:49 Brennan: Hell yeah, go ahead and roll damage.

0:28:51 Lou: 23, it's the number of the night!

0:28:52 Ally: 23!

0:28:53 Zac: (rolls) That’s cocked. (rolls) 12.

0:28:58 Brennan: Ok, he is badly injured, the guy next to you now.

0:29:02 Gorgug: Just die!

0:29:03 Brennan: Just die! That's Cathilda. Tracker is gone. Gilear rushes out of the space towards the van.

0:29:15 Fig: Go! Run towards destiny! Gilear’s character card shows on screen. It reads “Gilear Faeth, Former Intern”. He continues to have 5 AC and 10 HP.

0:29:21 Brennan: Ragh is going to leap forward. He's gonna take some swings here. Let's see how he can do here. Ragh also scores a critical hit and finishes the pirate you started on.

0:29:39 Ragh: Hoot! Growl! Roar! (stabs)

0:29:41 Gorgug: Nice.

0:29:43 Brennan: You see he headbutts you really quick.

0:29:45 Gorgug: Ow.

0:29:45 Ragh: Sorry dude, I'm in it. I'm in it right now!

0:29:48 Gorgug: No, it’s awesome.

0:29:50 Brennan: That is going to move on to now be Captain James's turn. Ok. I am going to need, (quick breath in) ooh baby.

0:30:13 Lou: Just don't want it. I like my brain.

0:30:19 Brennan: I am going to need Intelligence saving throws from Gorgug.

0:30:27 Zac: No.

0:30:30 Brennan: Kristen.

0:30:31 Ally: No!

0:30:31 Brennan: Fabian.

0:30:32 Lou: What?

0:30:32 Brennan: Adaine.

0:30:34 Siobhan: No!

0:30:34 Lou: Is this my— Oh.

0:30:35 Brennan: And basically everybody but Riz.

0:30:37 Fabian: I think it's the thing that killed everybody! Er..

0:30:40 Murph: Oh, the weird blast thing? That’s bad.

0:30:40 Siobhan: Oh no, the psychic blast.

0:30:44 Murph: Man, every round I just think, wow, we gotta get rid of this guy, but about everyone.

0:30:48 Siobhan: I got a 13.

0:30:50 Emily: 12.

0:30:50 Zac: Well, I rolled a three, and I have negative one, so I got two.

0:30:57 Ally: What was the DC?

0:30:59 Brennan: (pointing to Zac) Three. What did you roll?

0:30:59 Ally: 11.

0:31:00 Brennan: Everybody fails.

0:31:00 Ally: Okay wait. I can use Human Determination to re-roll for advantage.

0:31:04 Brennan: Go ahead and re-roll.

0:31:08 Ally: 14.

0:31:09 Brennan: Ok, Hold on one second. Let me roll for your guys' allies.

0:31:13 Lou: Do we get resistance to all damage? Do I have resistance to all damage?

0:31:16 Murph: You do, yeah.

0:31:16 Lou: Okay.

0:31:18 Emily: Why do you have resistance to all damage?

0:31:20 Lou: Warding Bond.

0:31:21 Murph: You basically just split the damage.

0:31:21 Brennan: Sandra Lynn makes a save. Cathilda makes her save as well. I’m gonna roll for… He's shredding his own pirates right now.

0:31:33 Murph: Rude.

0:31:35 Lou: So rude.

0:31:35 Riz: Classic, classic bad guy behavior.

0:31:38 Lou: Classic bad guy.

0:31:39 Riz: This is classic bad guy—

0:31:39 Murph: Riz says that really loud.

0:31:44 Ally: Even though you’re hiding? He's like, wait, you too! (mimics Captain James’ blast)

0:31:47 Murph: Classic bad guy behavior. It hits like the rafters, yeah. Weird echo.

0:31:56 Brennan: Three, 12, plus 5.

0:31:58 Siobhan: Did we run away? This is so bad.

0:32:00 Brennan: Everybody takes 17 points of damage.

0:32:05 Ally: Then I take—

0:32:05 Lou: I take, you take an additional. You take half of my damage.

0:32:10 Ally: Yeah.

0:32:11 Zac: I’m gettin’ messed up.

0:32:11 Siobhan: I'm already at 35.

0:32:13 Zac: I'm at 39.

0:32:16 Murph: I'm gonna try to get Tracker back, because Tracker's a cleric and Tracker, it'll be helpful to have two clerics. I'm gonna try to break the concentration of the lady who banished the Tracker.

0:32:26 Ally: Let's do 8.

0:32:26 Lou: Let's do 8.

0:32:31 Brennan: One second.

0:32:36 Ally: I take 17 plus 8 I think.

0:32:36 Lou: Yes.

0:32:39 Brennan: Also all of you who failed your saves, which is everybody that got hit by it, you are all stunned.

0:32:42 Murph: God damn it. Siobhan slams the table.

0:32:45 Zac: Wait, can I be stunned?

0:32:48 Brennan: Double check.

0:32:48 Siobhan: Just not gonna do anything at all?

0:32:50 Murph: You can't be surprised. You could probably be stunned.

0:32:52 Brennan: I believe you can be stunned.

0:32:53 Zac: Ok.

0:32:54 Murph: Rad.

0:32:56 Brennan: That is now going to be, as Captain James steps away from you, you step away from him, he steps away from you and says,

0:33:07 Whitclaw: Oh, your friends should’ve listened to you on this one, boyo. (screams)

0:33:13 Brennan: You feel raw hatred course over you. Sandra Lynn looks away at the last minute. Cathilda stands there and feels pure determination more powerfully than James can feel hatred and protects herself. James's pirates are badly injured, but not brought low, and then he moves a full 30 feet. His arms spread wide walking backwards into the Row and disappears into the fist fight. That is going to be Adaine. I'm gonna need another Constitution saving throw and you can make an Intelligence saving throw at the end of your turn to come out of the stunned effect.

0:34:05 Siobhan: Great, so I'm gonna have Boggy help me on the Constitution saving throw.

0:34:10 Brennan: Okay.

0:34:12 Siobhan: Oo yeah, that's a dirty 20 baby.

0:34:15 Brennan: That is one success.

0:34:15 Siobhan: One save, and then the second one is an Intelligence saving throw to come out of stunned?

0:34:24 Brennan: That is correct.

0:34:27 Siobhan: Well that's a nat 1.

0:34:28 Murph: Jesus.

0:34:28 Brennan: Oh no. You are fighting the stone as hard as you can, feeling your head ringing in the midst here of this chaos. That is the end of your turn. Riz, that's you.

0:34:44 Murph: Alright, can people talk while they're stunned?

0:34:48 Zac: I don't know.

0:34:49 Emily: I don't know. Brennan.

0:34:50 Siobhan: It's not paralyzed, I think you can.

0:34:51 Brennan: You can mumble stuff. You just can't take action or reactions.

0:34:55 Murph: I think I want to ask Adaine,

0:34:55 Riz: Adaine, can I hit those elves in that globe with my gun?

0:35:01 Adaine: I think with your gun. Just not a spell.

0:35:02 Murph: Sweet. I'm going to try to shoot the. I'll come out of hiding. I'm gonna try to shoot the one who banished Tracker. Do I get advantage if they haven't seen me? How does that work with hiding and?

0:35:25 Brennan: You do get advantage on this roll. What is the range? It's shortbow range, right? 60 feet or something like that?

0:35:30 Murph: Yeah.

0:35:30 Brennan: Cool. You're within range.

0:35:32 Murph: Sweet. Shooting the one that's got Tracker. That is an 18.

0:35:40 Brennan: An 18 to hit?

0:35:40 Murph: Yes.

0:35:42 Brennan: Hold on one second.

0:35:44 Murph: If this mage has 20AC, I'm gonna leap over the table, and punch you in the head Brennan.

0:35:52 Brennan: [laughs] 18 does hit.

0:35:53 Murph: Good, good. That's reasonable. Come on now.

0:35:58 Zac: Sneak attack?

0:35:59 Murph: Yep.

0:35:59 Zac: Hell yeah.

0:36:01 Lou: Chop chop.

0:36:06 Everyone: Oh yeah! Oh yeah.

0:36:10 Murph: 25 damage, and then I'm also gonna use Fury-- Oh wait, might have to be a melee attack for Fury of the Small? I'll look it up next time. I can only use it once anyway. Just 25 damage.

0:36:22 Brennan: 25 damage. This is for sure a Box of Doom concentration check.

0:36:28 Lou: Yeah!

0:36:30 Brennan: We're gonna go ahead and bring up the Box of Doom to see if Tracker comes back into the mix. He's on 25 damage. That's 12. We're gonna see here, this Elven mage needs to roll a 12 or higher to resist.

0:36:48 Murph: I'm also going to look up Fury of the Small, in case. When you damage a creature with an attack or a spell. Okay, it's just an attack. I'm gonna do an additional 8 damage to it.

0:36:56 Brennan: Ooh hoo hoo hoo!

0:36:58 Siobhan: That makes it up to 16?

0:37:00 Brennan: 16.

0:37:01 Ally: Nice, Riz!

0:37:02 Siobhan: They’ve gotta roll a 16 or higher.

0:37:04 Brennan: Here we go. Right in the Box of Doom.

0:37:05 Lou: Come on Riz.

0:37:07 Siobhan: Come on Riz.

0:37:09 Brennan: 16.

0:37:10 All: No!

0:37:11 Emily: Oh, get that, wipe that look off your face!

0:37:15 Brennan: That is a, let's shuffle it.

0:37:17 Lou: I wouldn't have trusted you otherwise. I'm not gonna lie. Purely any other way I would have.

0:37:22 Emily: I did see it. It was double digits, and I got that high feeling from it.

0:37:26 Brennan: Sorry gang.

0:37:28 Murph: Big yikes.

0:37:29 Lou: Big yikes.

0:37:30 Murph: I shot as my action. Can I see if I can see Captain James?

0:37:39 Brennan: You can see Captain James.

0:37:40 Murph: I can see him?

0:37:41 Brennan: Yes.

0:37:42 Murph: I would like to. Can I try to steal the crown from him?

0:37:46 Brennan: If you can make it to him, yeah.

0:37:48 Murph: What is? How far away is he from me?

0:37:50 Brennan: From you? He's about, let me see. Five, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40. About 40 feet away from you, and you have to go into the Row. He's like gone into the fistfight.

0:38:02 Murph: Okay. Hmmm. Okay, I am going to. I'm going to move. I'm gonna follow him into the fistfight, and then I'm going to bonus action hide, and use mysmallness to hide amongst the feet of the people. I have 30 speed.

0:38:27 Brennan: Go for it.

0:38:28 Murph: I get as close as I can and then I'm gonna hide. Not a great roll, but 15.

0:38:35 Brennan: Two, three, four, five, six, 15?

0:38:36 Murph: Yeah.

0:38:38 Brennan: Great. Awesome. I'm gonna roll a Perception check for our boy Jim. It's a natural 1.

0:38:46 Murph: Great.

0:38:47 Brennan: He did not see you approaching. However, at the end of your turn, Captain James is going to use a legendary action. He's gonna use a legendary action and he is going to fire his pistol at Fabian.

0:39:09 Zac: What?

0:39:09 Lou: He's gonna hit me.

0:39:11 Brennan: He hits. 2d8 plus five.

0:39:21 Lou: Oh, no, no.

0:39:23 Brennan: He deals you 10 points of damage (boom!) as he fires a pistol laughing. That's the end of Riz's turn. Kristen, that's your turn. At the end of your turn, you can make another Intelligence save and try to come out of the stunned condition.

0:39:37 Ally: With my muttering, can I cast Spirit Guardians?

0:39:41 Brennan: Nope.

0:39:42 Ally: Then I guess I'll just do an Intelligence.

0:39:45 Brennan: Gotta do an intelligence to try to come out of it.

0:39:49 Ally: Yeah. 14.

0:39:53 Brennan: 14 does not do it. It's gotta beat DC 15.

0:40:00 Ally: Can I cast Bless, or I can't do any of that when I'm stunned? Okay, never mind. Okay, cool.

0:40:05 Brennan: By the way, that 10 damage dealt to you (Fabian). Five damage. (points to Kristen) Five.

0:40:09 Ally: He's been doing that.

0:40:09 Brennan: Great. Cool. Great, great, great. You guys have that Warding Bond up. Fabian, that’s gonna be you. You are stunned. Making me that DC 15 Intelligence saving throw.

0:40:18 Lou: Nat one.

0:40:19 Brennan: Nat one.

0:40:19 Emily: What?

0:40:19 Murph: Dude.

0:40:22 Siobhan: Throw them away.

0:40:22 Zac: Please.

0:40:22 Emily: You need to go out for a nice weekend retreat with your dice and reconnect.

0:40:29 Lou: That one was special in that I was kind of like—

0:40:31 Siobhan: (crosstalk) I’m gonna wash your dice.

0:40:33 Brennan: At the end of Fabian's turn, as you are going for Captain James, he vanishes in a swirl of psychic energy and reappears having teleported up to the Ruction.

0:40:44 Emily: Where is he in relation to the globe of elves?

0:40:49 Brennan: He's a little bit away from them. Siobhan has taken out a plastic cup of water, stolen Lou’s dice, and dunked them in there to clean them.

0:40:52 Siobhan: No, no, no.

0:40:52 Lou: (reaching over to interfere with the dice bath) Are you gonna drink this water?

0:40:53 Murph: He's on the same level as them. He's on the second level. Not the top level, right?

0:40:56 Siobhan: (to Lou) No! This is your cup. (laughing)

0:40:58 Brennan: That is correct. He's on the second level with them.

0:41:02 Ally: Here we go.

0:41:02 Lou: Here we go.

0:41:04 Ally: They’ve been baptized.

0:41:04 Brennan: It's not three levels. It's just the floor and then the netting 15 feet up.

0:41:08 Murph: Oh, I’m sorry, I’m wrong, I’m wrong.

0:41:09 Lou: (muttering, laughing) Siobhan, now you’re washing my dice.

0:41:11 Brennan: You see Jim uses a legendary action to get up to that upper level. He's kind of up in a corner and the elves are in the central plank area but he's up there waiting for his pirates to start shimmying up into the Ruction with him. That's now going to be, one of the elves again. We're back at the top of the order.

0:41:39 Lou: I’ll give it to you, that was bad. That was one of the first times I felt like—

0:41:43 Siobhan: I also rolled a Nat 1 on that exact same roll.

0:41:45 Lou: But you haven't been rolling Nat 1s like I've been rolling Nat 1s.

0:41:48 Zac: You rolled maybe seven Nat 1s in the past three sessions.

0:41:50 Siobhan: In a row.

0:41:53 Lou: Hey everybody at home, how many nat 1s have I rolled? I know you’ve been counting. In the comments, how many nat 1s? (Editor’s note: Including the failed save in this episode, Lou has rolled 11 nat 1s since episode 5.)

0:42:00 Emily: I really thought. This is gonna be the episode where it turns around and the dice come back to Fabian.

0:42:06 Lou: Yes. I like knew that I was gonna have none of the character stuff, or the class stuff, and I was like, well what if I roll really well and it's kind of like that kind of coming around and the beginning of it. (shakes his head a little)

0:42:19 Brennan: The air elemental comes over to a restrained and stunned Adaine. Grabs you, and begins to, and it flies. This thing's movement is...

0:42:28 Lou: Wow.

0:42:30 Brennan: This thing's movement is 90.

0:42:33 Ally: Is Adaine becoming more and more heavy as stone? Can an air elemental carry her?

0:42:37 Brennan: (nods in response) This thing is the size of a small truck. It's a large, large earth (sic) elemental. It grabs Adaine and flies back to the elves.

0:42:50 Zac: Can anyone get attacks on it?

0:42:52 Brennan: Actually, Fig and Fabian will both get attacks. No, you're stunned. You're stunned as well.

0:42:56 Emily: I’m stunned as well.

0:42:59 Brennan: So nobody gets attacks. Oh sorry, Cathilda will get attacks, or just get the one.

0:43:05 Ally: And it'll stop if Cathilda hits, right?

0:43:08 Brennan: Cathilda does not have.

0:43:08 Murph: Sentinel.

0:43:08 Ally: Oh right.

0:43:12 Brennan: Cathilda takes a swing, and does deal some damage to this thing. Slashes out at it, and it moves up with Adaine, to the Ruction.

0:43:27 Siobhan: That's where I wanted to be anyway, and as soon as I break out of all of the area, all of the effect spells that are on me, ooh!

0:43:34 Murph: Yo, they’re just gonna teleport away with her.

0:43:37 Emily: I know. That's why I'm like. Focus on the fuckin’ elves!

0:43:38 Brennan: While Adaine is conscious, they cannot. That's important to remember that while Adaine is conscious, they cannot teleport away.

0:43:48 Ally: You have one save.

0:43:50 Siobhan: I have 35 hit points left. So—

0:43:57 Brennan: As this thing arrives.

0:43:59 Siobhan: Oh, we're so screwed.

0:44:02 Brennan: That is going to be, buh buh buh buh… I'm gonna need dexterity saving throws from Fig, Fabian, Kristen, and Gorgug.

0:44:25 Ally: Dex save?

0:44:26 Brennan: Dexterity saves, and I believe if you're restrained you're gonna roll this. Let me double check. Has disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws. You're gonna roll this with disadvantage.

0:44:34 Zac: I just rolled with advantage because I have--

0:44:37 Brennan: Whatever the first roll was.

0:44:41 Zac: The lower one or the first?

0:44:44 Brennan: Just roll a new one.

0:44:46 Emily: I got a 10.

0:44:47 Lou: Mod 20.

0:44:49 Ally: 16.

0:44:50 Brennan: 16, damn.

0:44:51 Zac: 15.

0:44:51 Emily: 10.

0:44:52 Brennan: 10, 15. Okay. That is quite, good gang.

0:44:57 Lou: Felt good. It felt good, felt good to see two digits on that dice roll.

0:45:02 Brennan: Cool. Who rolled under a 14 for this one? Anybody? Under here- Emily raises her hand.

0:45:06 Brennan: Cool. Well it's fire damage so you're in luck.

0:45:09 Emily: Ooh! I love fire damage! [laughter]

0:45:14 Brennan: Seven, 10, 19.

0:45:16 Emily: Stop counting.

0:45:16 Brennan: 19, 29.

0:45:18 Emily: Okay, stop counting.

0:45:18 Brennan: 31. Anyone who saved takes 15 fire damage, so you take another 15, so that's a full 30 to Kristen. You take 31 halved to 15.

0:45:30 Zac: I have 25 health. I started with 112.

0:45:33 Brennan: Cathilda takes. Uh, hold on.

0:45:33 Emily: I have 9.

0:45:35 Lou: Kristen takes half of 15 plus 15, right? Because I saved. Or half of.

0:45:43 Brennan: But Kristen takes her own 15 as well.

0:45:48 Lou: But then only, half of, I took 15, right?

0:45:51 Ally: So it's like 22 or 23.

0:45:53 Murph: So they’d take 7.

0:45:54 Siobhan: I can't believe you're gonna give a total party kill—

0:45:56 Brennan: Oh, yes yes yes yes, 22, that’s correct. (to Siobhan) What’s that?

0:45:58 Siobhan: Right before Christmas.

0:46:01 Emily: We'll still have one more episode.

0:46:01 Brennan: We've got another episode next week.

0:46:03 Emily: Next week we’ll all roll new characters.

0:46:05 Siobhan: Do we? Do we?

0:46:06 Siobhan: We're all pirates next week and we're just hanging out in the Leviathan having a nice pirate-y time.

0:46:10 Ally: It’s not looking good, gang.

0:46:14 Brennan: Fig, that is going to be you.

0:46:15 Lou: (crosstalk, to Ally) Can I release you?

0:46:16 Emily: Ok, so since I'm stunned.

0:46:18 Brennan: At the end of your turn, roll an Intelligence saving throw to come out of the stunned condition.

0:46:20 Ally: (to Lou) If you're more than 60 feet away from me, you’re stopped.

0:46:23 Lou: (to Ally) My top speed is 15.

0:46:24 Emily: Okay, I got a dirty 20.

0:46:25 Brennan: Hell yes.

0:46:26 Emily: Does that save?

0:46:26 Brennan: At the end of your turn.

0:46:28 Emily: Okay, but do I get a bonus action?

0:46:30 Brennan: I'll give you a bonus action.

0:46:32 Lou: Aww, what a sweetie!

0:46:33 Emily: Okay, what can I do with bonus action? Umm, not a lot.

0:46:37 Brennan: You can give Bardic Inspiration if someone’s making saving throws.

0:46:39 Emily: Yeah, I can do that. I guess that's probably better than healing Gorgug. Yeah, I guess that's all I can do. All I have is a bonus action. I will just give Adaine Bardic Inspiration.

0:46:46 Siobhan: Thank you.

0:46:54 Fig: Love you girl.

0:46:54 Adaine: Love you.

0:46:55 Brennan: You come out of your stun. Hit a little chord, wink, and Adaine turning into stone, still stunned, being carried up to the Ruction. That's going to be a fourth elf. Has to drop their Greater Invisibility, in order to cast another concentration spell.

0:47:06 Siobhan: No!

0:47:17 Emily: No!

0:47:22 Brennan: A enchanter subclass elf, drops the Greater Invisibility on them, casting Dominate Person on you, and your father Angwyn Abernant looks you in the face and says,

0:47:37 Angwyn: It's time to come home, daughter. In reaction to Angwyn’s name, Lou drops his pencil and gives a big “I don’t know” shrug.

0:47:39 Brennan: I'm going to need you to...

0:47:43 Emily: You got Bardic inspiration.

0:47:43 Ally: Yeah.

0:47:46 Siobhan: Yep.

0:47:47 Lou: Ha, cha, cha.

0:47:47 Murph: Isn’t it Charm?

0:47:49 Brennan: This is a Charm condition so you would be rolling advantage. Go ahead and give-- this is definitely gonna be a Box of Doom roll. You are rolling with advantage. The difficulty on this, is also going to be 14. This is a Wisdom saving throw.

0:48:11 Ally: What do you have for wisdom?

0:48:13 Siobhan: Plus six.

0:48:13 Ally: (hopefully) Okay! Siobhan rolls her save in the Box of Doom. One of them is a 6 and the other is a 3.

0:48:18 Siobhan: Oh no.

0:48:18 Brennan: That’s a—

0:48:22 Emily: Bardic.

0:48:22 Brennan: Bardic. It's a six plus five. What is six plus five?

0:48:26 Siobhan: 11 plus, six is 17.

0:48:28 Brennan: 17.

0:48:29 Siobhan: Give me my dice back.

0:48:31 Brennan: You resist the Dominate Person.

0:48:33 Siobhan: (shouts) Don't tell me what to do!

0:48:33 Adaine: (quietly, since she’s stone) Don't tell me what to do.

0:48:37 Siobhan: My d8 is in there as well.

0:48:39 Brennan: Oh sorry, sorry. Which one was yours?

0:48:41 Siobhan: D8. It was a blue d8 with gold. In the Box of Doom.

0:48:44 Brennan: Oh, in the Box of Doom. Is it still in there? I may have thrown it into my massive collection of dice.

0:48:49 Siobhan: (angrily) You thief. (normal) I'll take it back at the end.

0:48:51 Brennan: Cool. We'll get that sorted out.

0:48:54 Siobhan: (to Emily) Thank you so much for that Bardic.

0:48:55 Emily: Yeah, for real. I almost just healed Gorgug.

0:49:00 Siobhan: So stupid.

0:49:01 Zac: That'd be freakin' crazy. So hurt.

0:49:03 Emily: Boy, I'd be regretting that.

0:49:05 Brennan: Has Riz used his reaction already or no?

0:49:08 Murph: No.

0:49:09 Brennan: I'm gonna need a Dexterity saving throw from him.

0:49:09 Zac: Do you have Evade?

0:49:11 Siobhan: Oh yeah.

0:49:13 Brennan: DC 13, Dexterity saving throw.

0:49:19 Murph: 21.

0:49:20 Brennan: Cool. 6d6 damage. Halved.

0:49:25 Murph: I take no, if I dodge it.

0:49:27 Brennan: You're the perfect person to be in this giant fist fight, as pirates just. Hah! (imitating punching)  You're just. (imitates dodging several times out of the way of attacks) Dodging all the—

0:49:35 Riz: It's so bad to be in here guys.

0:49:40 Brennan: That's the Row and the Ruction.

0:49:41 Fig: Not going well out here either.

0:49:44 Gorgug: It's bad everywhere.

0:49:47 Brennan: Okay. Siobhan sighs loudly, her shoulders dropping.

0:49:52 Lou: What a sigh. Hardy. That was a substantial sigh.

0:49:55 Siobhan: Yep.

0:49:58 Brennan: Okay. Hold on one second. (pause, adventure music) Come out stunned.

0:50:14 Lou: That was good.

0:50:16 Adaine: My dad came to get me. So embarrassing!

0:50:19 Murph: Truly so many elves.

0:50:20 Lou: Nothing worse than getting picked up by your dad.

0:50:22 Murph: So many elves.

0:50:24 Emily: And you snuck out.

0:50:24 Adaine: All my friends are here! God, you're embarrassing me.

0:50:31 Brennan: That is a miss on Gorgug.

0:50:34 Zac: On what?

0:50:36 Murph: Just a billion dudes.

0:50:36 Zac: What's happening?

0:50:38 Murph: Just people everywhere.

0:50:39 Brennan: The pirates are swinging again. Two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. 11, 15, 16, 24, 35, plus 16, 41. Lou is making pained reaction noises as Brennan counts.

0:50:59 Brennan: Halved to 20 damage to Gorgug. You are stunned, and these guys all are getting advantage attacking you.

0:51:05 Zac: I have 5 health.

0:51:06 Lou: Huh?

0:51:06 Murph: Very rad.

0:51:08 Emily: I'm at 9.

0:51:10 Lou: Huh?

0:51:12 Murph: Really trying to get Tracker back. I don't know what else to do.

0:51:16 Emily: I have Healing Word, but.

0:51:20 Ally: I have Prayer of Healing.

0:51:21 Murph: I have a shenanigan idea and I have a just keep attacking the elf and hope Tracker comes idea.

0:51:27 Lou: Huh?: 9 damage to Fig from an attack.

0:51:29 Emily: Bye-bye. Wait can I? Since it hit me exactly for nine and I had nine, can I Hellish Rebuke on my way out?

0:51:36 Lou: Huh?: Sure, I'll let you Hellish Rebuke on your way out.

0:51:37 Emily: Yeah, bitch! That's gonna be 14 fire damage.

0:51:42 Brennan: He dies.

0:51:44 Zac: Take him to hell with you girl!

0:51:46 Brennan: He goes, (battle cry) and you see his soul goes,

0:51:49 Pirate: Oh no, no, no!

0:51:52 Brennan: And gets sucked into Hell! On his way out.

0:51:55 Siobhan: Oh, that’s so rad. My friend's a rockstar. (nods excitedly)

0:51:59 Ally: Ask Fabian's dad what we should do up here?

0:52:02 Emily: Yeah, when I’m in Hell, can I talk to Fabian's dad?

0:52:05 Murph: (laughing) You’re not dead!

0:52:09 Brennan: Cathilda takes 14 points of damage getting slashed by one of the pirates in front of her. That is going to be...

0:52:19 Zac: This is, uh—

0:52:19 Lou: It's a rough,

0:52:24 Zac: This is bad.

0:52:25 Siobhan: This is really bad.

0:52:28 Lou: Straight up bad. This is bad.

0:52:28 Siobhan: This is really bad.

0:52:29 Emily: The whole time I was like, okay, okay, I know James Whitclaw's gonna be the president or whatever, but I really don't wanna lose Adaine.

0:52:36 Murph: The president of pirates.

0:52:38 Zac: I don't like his platform.

0:52:40 Siobhan: It's a fixed term though, so after eight years, he's not the president of pirates anymore. He'll respect that. He will. I believe it.

0:52:48 Ally: He will. That's how it works.

0:52:49 Siobhan: He respects the office.

0:52:54 Brennan: The extremely young childlike white gowned elf, looks at you and says,

0:53:05 Elf: (soft, high-pitched) You're the Elven Oracle, no? You made a prediction at the beginning of this fight. Do you remember what it was?

0:53:14 Adaine: Yeah, that your ass would be on my fuckin' knee because I'm gonna kick your ass.

0:53:20 Elf: Why, because you're going to kick me with your knee?

0:53:25 Riz: She's gonna knee you in the ass!

0:53:26 Brennan: Go ahead.

0:53:27 Siobhan: I don’t remember what my prediction was at all, except that we're gonna die!

0:53:30 Brennan: Go ahead and give me another Wisdom saving throw.

0:53:37 Siobhan: Rad.

0:53:39 Brennan: This is also going to be Box of Doom. The DC for this one is 15.

0:53:44 Siobhan: Is this another Charm?

0:53:45 Brennan: It's another Charm.

0:53:46 Siobhan: Okay, so I do at least have advantage.

0:53:47 Zac: Is the one? That's the one that did the spell to Tracker, right?

0:53:52 Ally: Oh yeah, is that concentration on Banishment?

0:53:54 Brennan: Hold on one second.

0:53:54 Lou: Got you.

0:53:56 Siobhan: Yeah, gotcha.

0:53:57 Brennan: This one is not concentration.

0:53:59 Siobhan: No!

0:54:00 Lou: Didn't getcha. Brennan winks at the table as he’s taking out the Box of Doom.

0:54:02 Lou: Don't wink at us.

0:54:02 Zac: Don't wink at me!

0:54:05 Murph: We'll knee your ass dude. Siobhan makes her Box of Doom roll. One is a 10 and the other is a 17.

0:54:07 Siobhan: Yeah! All right, yeah, no. That's like a 23. 23! All right.

0:54:14 Brennan: Cool. That one doesn't work either.

0:54:16 Emily: (laughing) Yeah, waste those spell slots.

0:54:16 Adaine: My mind is strong, because I'm on a lot of medication. That's cool.

0:54:25 Zac: Gosh. I’m still stunned.

0:54:28 Ally: Me too.

0:54:28 Siobhan: Me too.

0:54:29 Lou: At the end of your turn?

0:54:31 Emily: If it makes you feel any better, I'm just dead.

0:54:35 Ally: It does.

0:54:35 Zac: Honestly, no. (laughing)

0:54:38 Brennan: Gorgug, that's gonna be you.

0:54:39 Emily: I guess I am gonna roll a nat 20.

0:54:39 Zac: Let's get out of this stun, baby. Come on, girl.

0:54:42 Lou: Come on, girl! Come on, boy!

0:54:48 Ally: Come on, girl!

0:54:48 Lou: Yee haw!

0:54:48 Zac: I think so.

0:54:48 Ally: (pointing around the table) Stunned, stunned, stunned, stunned, dead. Turning to stone.

0:54:51 Zac: What do I need to roll?

0:54:52 Brennan: 15.

0:54:52 Zac: (slams the table) 12.

0:54:54 Brennan: Cathilda is going to give you an immediate re-roll on that as her reaction.

0:54:58 Murph: Please.

0:55:00 Lou: Come on girl.

0:55:01 Zac: 18!

0:55:02 Everyone: Yeah!

0:55:02 Brennan: 18. You see that Cathilda turns around. You're there getting pummeled and you're at such low hit points. She turns around and says,

0:55:08 Cathilda: (yelling, legitimately intimidating) Snap out of it! Now's not the time for lollygagging.

0:55:12 Gorgug: (pained) Ahh! (laughter)

0:55:16 Brennan: You snap out of stun at the end of your turn.

0:55:22 Lou: That's a crazy interaction.

0:55:25 Ally: Someone screaming at you. Ahh!

0:55:28 Zac: Even though it's not my turn, can I try to Intimidate the pirates?

0:55:32 Brennan: Yeah, give me Intimidate check. Let me know. This is a DC-25.

0:55:37 Zac: Great. Nat 1.

0:55:42 Brennan: They seem more excited about killing you now if anything.

0:55:43 Gorgug: Aaah!

0:55:45 Murph: Your voice cracked, It's super high! At first Riz thought he screamed because it was so loud.

0:55:48 Riz: What was that? What was that?  Did I yell?

0:55:52 Fabian: I'm not. Am I screaming?

0:55:56 Kristen: Am I screaming? Siobhan grabs a plastic cup of water and takes a drink.

0:55:58 Riz: It didn’t sound like it could be Gorgug.

0:55:59 Ally: Is that the dice holy water?

0:56:00 Siobhan: Delicious.

0:56:01 Ally: I can't wait to see if it works.

0:56:02 Lou: I mean I rolled a 13. I rolled two 13s post baptism.

0:56:08 Emily: That's better than ones.

0:56:09 Siobhan: Better than ones.

0:56:10 Lou: It is.

0:56:11 Emily: They're coming back to you. They just need a little pampering

0:56:12 Lou: There it is.

0:56:14 Zac: You still have Sending?

0:56:15 Siobhan: I can't do anything until I get this.

0:56:16 Brennan: By the way, you guys see the globe around the elves has vanished.

0:56:22 Lou: When were you gonna tell us that?

0:56:24 Emily: That would have been convenient to know, when I,

0:56:25 Siobhan: Sending takes a minute right? I don't have the card for that.

0:56:27 Lou: Yeah, I know I would have been stunned but I still would have liked to know.

0:56:33 Emily: I would have probably used my bonus action the same way I did.

0:56:38 Brennan: Okay.

0:56:39 Zac: Week after week, we're just getting our asses kicked.

0:56:42 Emily: No.

0:56:44 Siobhan: That's only one action.

0:56:45 Brennan: Sandra Lynn drops to the ground.

0:56:49 Emily: At least our hirelings are effective.

0:56:54 Brennan: And heals Fig for 12 hit points. Your mom, (bwoom)

0:56:56 Sandra Lynn: I got you sweetie. Come on!

0:57:00 Brennan: And pulls you up to your feet.

0:57:01 Fig: Did you see when I dragged that guy to hell with me?

0:57:03 Sandra Lynn: Horrifying. You're wonderful.

0:57:06 Brennan: See, she heals you. Cathilda is gonna swing at these guys here.

0:57:17 Zac: Hellish Rebuke is so good against the little guys.

0:57:21 Brennan: Two of those hit.

0:57:21 Emily: I can't do it again though. It's a tiefling thing.

0:57:25 Siobhan: You wouldn't understand.

0:57:26 Murph: It’s a tiefling thing.

0:57:27 Brennan: Cathilda dices one of the guys in front of her. There's only four pirates left fighting you guys still.

0:57:31 Zac: How many of them are on me?

0:57:34 Brennan: Two of them were on you at the same time.

0:57:39 Zac: We killed two that were near me though.

0:57:42 Brennan: Correct.

0:57:48 Ally: Fig just has nine souls. Emily mimes eating several souls.

0:57:53 Brennan: Baxter the Griffin lunges through the door and bites one of the pirate's heads off with his beak.

0:57:56 Ally: Hell yeah.

0:58:00 Lou: Okay, Baxter!

0:58:01 Brennan: And then that's gonna be good old Ragh.

0:58:04 Lou: The full chomp.

0:58:04 Ally: Come on Ragh.

0:58:06 Lou: Solid chomp.

0:58:06 Brennan: Solid chomp. That's gonna be Ragh Barkrock who goes ahead and badly injures one of the pirates attacking you, Gorgug. That is...

0:58:19 Zac: What's that? What's her move? Where she lets people attack?

0:58:26 Brennan: As a bonus action, Sandra Lynn, it was her turn again, so she'll let you get another bonus action. Take another swing.

0:58:31 Zac: Ok, cool. All right.

0:58:35 Siobhan: Yes.

0:58:36 Zac: 20 to hit. 21 to hit.

0:58:38 Brennan: 21 hits.

0:58:38 Zac: Okay come on. 10 damage.

0:58:44 Brennan: Slaughtered. You and Ragh both just vivisect one of the pirates in front of you. Gorgug makes a weak little yell and swings his axe.

0:58:55 Brennan: Okay. It is Captain James's turn. One second.

0:59:07 Ally: Simply feels like he's had five turns so far.

0:59:11 Zac: Got legendary actions.

0:59:12 Ally: We're just writhing on the ground doing nothing all day.

0:59:15 Lou: Stunned.

0:59:18 Ally: The griffin has a death under his belt and I'm just fucking lying on the ground.

0:59:25 Zac: It’s like she wasn't here.

0:59:27 Ally: Popped his head in a barn as a kill and I rolled two 11's. (cast laughing)

0:59:37 Brennan: That, you see, Captain James, walks forward. He's gonna take another attack with his pistol.

0:59:48 Lou: On me?

0:59:48 Brennan: On Fabian.

0:59:50 Lou: My AC is 20 by the way. It went up by one.

0:59:54 Zac: Why did it go up?

0:59:55 Brennan: He does hit, because you are still stunned.

0:59:58 Lou: I'm so sorry. Even after this.

1:00:01 Brennan: That's six plus five. 11 points of damage to you. Captain Whitclaw just laughs, leaps to the platform with the elves, blasts with a pistol, turns to the elves and says,

1:00:15 Whitclaw: I told you where they'd be. Now you get off the Ruction. You being here means I can't declare.

1:00:24 Brennan: You see that the young Elven maiden says

1:00:27 Elf: (calmly) I assure you Captain Whitclaw, we're doing our best to leave at once.

1:00:32 Brennan: That's Captain Jim's turn. Adaine, I'm gonna need another Constitution saving throw.

1:00:36 Siobhan: What I'm gonna do is actually, I'll roll a Constitution regular and then I'm gonna use Boggy to help me on my Intelligence throw, because that seems more important, and in this area, because I have War Caster. (rolls) That's a 10 Constitution, so that's a fail.

1:00:55 Brennan: Failure.

1:00:59 Siobhan: I'm rolling my Intelligence. Okay, okay, that's an 18.

1:01:05 Brennan: You come out of the stunned condition.

1:01:07 Siobhan: I have War Caster. So let me know if anybody, if I get an opportunity attack against anybody, because I can hit them with a spell.

1:01:14 Brennan: Copy that. If anyone leaves you, I will let you know.

1:01:17 Siobhan: Am I within the circle of the?

1:01:20 Brennan: That circle, the globe has vanished.

1:01:22 Siobhan: Oh great!

1:01:23 Brennan: Yes, yes, yes.

1:01:23 Siobhan: Fantastic.

1:01:28 Brennan: That is your turn. Riz, that's you.

1:01:30 Murph: Sweet. So it's 15 feet up?

1:01:36 Brennan: Correct.

1:01:38 Siobhan: Oh never mind.

1:01:39 Brennan: Adaine's up there. The elves are up there. James is up there.

1:01:43 Siobhan: Wait, hang on a second. You let Fig have a bonus action.

1:01:48 Brennan: You wanna take a bonus action?

1:01:49 Siobhan: I would love to take a bonus action.

1:01:51 Brennan: Cool.

1:01:52 Siobhan: Can I please Misty Step away from this elemental?

1:01:57 Brennan: (looks into the camera and shakes his head) You can never be nice. ‘Cause you start being nice to people...

1:02:00 Siobhan: Excuse me, you're fully killing us!

1:02:03 Brennan: Great, where do you wanna Misty Step to?

1:02:07 Ally: It's a bonus action? That’s insane.

1:02:07 Siobhan: It's a bonus action. I'm gonna, I guess back to where.

1:02:12 Brennan: Close to where your friends are?

1:02:13 Siobhan: Fig and Fabian are, yeah.

1:02:14 Brennan: Cool. Hold on one second. One, two, three, four. You can get. You'll still be within the Row.

1:02:27 Siobhan: Can I stay in the Ruction area?

1:02:30 Brennan: Yes you can.

1:02:30 Siobhan: So I'm above the Row? I’m at least 30 feet away.

1:02:34 Brennan: You're 30 feet away in the netting getting slowly turned to stone.

1:02:39 Siobhan: Sick, but at least I'm with my friend.

1:02:43 Zac: Riz, can we investigate those things up there?

1:02:44 Murph: The what things?

1:02:45 Zac: There's like magical weapons in the Ruction.

1:02:47 Brennan: Not magic weapons. Just old discarded swords.

1:02:48 Murph: Old discarded swords, yeah. I am going to Misty Step up to the platform, and I would like to try to steal the crown from Captain James.

1:03:00 Brennan: Oh my God, okay.

1:03:02 Murph: I would like to try to cause some chaos here.

1:03:04 Siobhan: Great.

1:03:05 Brennan: Oh, you used the Sword of Shadows to— Okay. You appear.

1:03:10 Ally: Yes Riz.

1:03:10 Brennan: I'm going to say that this is going to be a Sleight of Hand opposed by his Athletics, because you got the benefit of surprise. He rolled a nat 1. So he doesn't know you're hiding. I will let you roll this with advantage, but he's got a very good Athletics score.

1:03:31 Murph: My Sleight of Hand is okay. I don’t have proficiency.

1:03:33 Brennan: This is gonna definitely be Box of Doom.

1:03:35 Murph: I only have plus five, but.

1:03:37 Lou: Come on Riz.

1:03:38 Brennan: This is Box of Doom. So here's what you have to beat first. Brennan rolls in the Box. The die is a natural 4.

1:03:42 Murph: I love it. I love that.

1:03:44 Brennan: He got a 12.

1:03:45 Ally: All right. (rolling)

1:03:49 Brennan: Five and six. Did you beat it?

1:03:50 Murph: I did not.

1:03:54 Ally: Wait, because what do you add to it?

1:03:55 Siobhan: 11.

1:03:56 Murph: Sleight of Hand, plus five. Sleight of Hand. (sighs)

1:03:59 Ally: All right.

1:04:02 Murph: Unbelievable.

1:04:02 Brennan: You Misty Step up, reach up to grab, yank it, and he holds on to the crown. He says,

1:04:08 Whitclaw: There's a mistake, boyo.

1:04:11 Brennan: And he's going to legendary action. Take an attack on you.

1:04:14 Lou: (quietly) Oh, no no no no. Oh, no no no. No no no.

1:04:21 Ally: (sadly) Merry Christmas.

1:04:28 Murph: I'm gonna guess that was my action, right?

1:04:30 Brennan: That was your action, yes.

1:04:31 Ally: Don't you still have movement, if you used Misty Step to get up there?

1:04:33 Brennan: No, you have movement.

1:04:35 Ally: You can run. (laughing)

1:04:36 Brennan: Cool.

1:04:38 Murph: Yeah, I'd love to not be directly next to him. I guess I'll run on the… Is the platform in the middle? I guess I want to run on the opposite side of Adaine maybe so they can't blast us both with stuff.

1:04:50 Brennan: So you wanna run away from your friend towards the back of the Row and the Ruction?

1:04:53 Murph: Yeah.

1:04:53 Brennan: Cool.

1:04:55 Murph: On the same level as those guys, but just like putting some distance.

1:04:58 Brennan: Cool.

1:04:58 Murph: Let's go to 20 feet or something.

1:04:59 Brennan: Instead of that being his legendary action, that becomes his attack of opportunity. You scoot away. You can only make it 15 feet because it's difficult terrain up here.

1:05:08 Siobhan: Don't you have bonus action disengage?

1:05:09 Murph: I used it to scoot up.

1:05:11 Siobhan: Oh you used it already. Of course!

1:05:13 Brennan: Okay, now at the end of your turn he's gonna take a pistol shot at you. Or actually no. He's going to teleport next to you.

1:05:20 Murph: Great. Very cool.

1:05:23 Lou: Dude, that's really sick.

1:05:23 Siobhan: He can teleport on top of all of that other stuff that he can do?

1:05:27 Brenan: (nodding innocently) Mm-hm! (laughs)

1:05:27 Siobhan: You're mean. You're a mean man.

1:05:31 Riz: I'm gonna get your stupid crown.

1:05:32 Zac: How close is he to us?

1:05:34 Brennan: Now he's farther away, because Riz is running back, so he's going toward the back of the area. Kristen, you're still stunned. Go ahead and give me your Intelligence saving throw.

1:05:42 Ally: Come on baby. Plus one to intelligence. My man. That's only a 10.

1:05:49 Brennan: Cathilda has gone since the last time she gave advantage. She's going to let you re-roll that.

1:05:53 Ally: Thank god! Maybe Baxter can give me, I mean, he's killing it in the game right now. (screaming) Four!

1:06:00 Siobhan: That reaction really made it seem like it was a good roll.

1:06:03 Lou: I saw that.

1:06:04 Emily: I saw that as a bad reaction.

1:06:06 Allyy: Okay, wait. I have this ice cream sandwich pouch. Let's say I kind of like move my spine a little. That ice cream sandwich falls out. Can that give me the help action? Ice cream sandwich. Brennan looks directly into the camera and gives a slight disappointed frown.

1:06:20 Siobhan: Kristen now has an ice cream sandwich familiar.

1:06:23 Zac: Move your spine a little bit.

1:06:24 Lou: You let her Misty Step. Come on.

1:06:26 Ally: Kristen moves her spine a little bit.

1:06:28 Lou: Kristen should get help.

1:06:29 Ally: Oh my God, there's a Neapolitan ice cream sandwich next to me. It looks up. It looks up.

1:06:35 Brennan: Hit a nat 20, and I'll let a magical ice cream sandwich.

1:06:38 Ally: Oh, you don’t know what you’re doing.

1:06:39 Lou: You're asking the wrong.

1:06:41 Ally: No!

1:06:42 Murph: You're rolling really.

1:06:47 Ally: I'm rolling dog shit today! It's contagious! Lou offers Ally his dice baptism cup. They dunk their d20s in there.

1:06:47 Siobhan: It’s infective!

1:06:48 Murph: This side of the table. This is really bad, yeah.

1:06:52 Brennan: Fabian, that's gonna be you. At the end of your turn, try to come out of the stunned condition.

1:06:56 Ally: Oh it's so cold. Is there ice in this? (shaking water off their hand)

1:06:56 Murph: Come on Fabian.

1:06:58 Zac: Come on, Fabian.

1:07:03 Lou: (blows on his dice before rolling) It’s a 7.

1:07:04 Murph: No.

1:07:05 Zac: This is the most brutal combat.

1:07:05 Siobhan: So brutal.

1:07:07 Murph: I’m sorry, I need to run to the bathroom. He gets up and leaves the table.

1:07:07 Brennan: Go for it. All right.

1:07:12 Emily: Wow, Murph is leaving a murder fest. Lou is re-dunking his dice in the dice baptism cup.

1:07:13 Siobhan: Murph just ran away.

1:07:19 Ally: Murph just took an Uber home. Mic’ed, he lets us hear that audio. Hey man, how's it going today? How late are you working?

1:07:24 Lou: Yeah, I had a rough one.

1:07:26 Ally: Where'd you start today? (laughter)

1:07:28 Emily: Fig's turn?

1:07:30 Brennan: No, it is not Fig's turn, I'm afraid. I am so sorry to have to do this. The air elemental comes, scoops you up, and flies you back.

1:07:39 Siobhan: Is there no save that I can do against this?

1:07:42 Brennan: No, it's the roll is happening over here. It hits your armor class, grapples you.

1:07:46 Siobhan: Shield!

1:07:48 Brennan: You cast Shield as a reaction. It misses its first attack. It gets its second one. Hold on one second. What's your armor class with Shield?

1:07:58 Siobhan: 18.

1:08:00 Brennan: It hits an 18.

1:08:00 Siobhan: Dang!

1:08:02 Emily: (leaning to look at Brennan’s dice) It does, I can see it from here. I’m spying. That hits.

1:08:03 Ally: Don’t have anything else to do.

1:08:03 Brennan: It scoops you back up, takes you back.

1:08:07 Siobhan: (gestures to Brennan) Thanks for reading all his secrets.

1:08:09 Emily: I can’t see anything other than the rolls.

1:08:11 Brennan: Now that is going to be. Hold on one second.

1:08:17 Ally: You need some help, gang.

1:08:18 Emily: All my dice are covered in nervous sweat now. Gross. Disgusting.

1:08:23 Lou: Can I just start rolling in this glass of water? (rolls a die into the cup) 13.

1:08:29 Siobhan: You went from rolling only 1s to rolling all 13's which is also very unlucky, I feel like.

1:08:33 Ally: Yep. Totally.

1:08:34 Lou: Can I just roll in this glass of water? Is that against any rules?

1:08:36 Siobhan: There's no rules that say you can't roll in a glass of water.

1:08:39 Lou: I'm gonna roll in this glass of water. If I get a nat 20 on the next roll I will roll in the glass of water forever.

1:08:42 Brennan: Uh, Fig, that’s you.

1:08:44 Emily: Globe of Invulnerability is gone. Do I get the impression that Shatter could hurt them and also destroy the wood they're on?

1:08:50 Brennan: Couldn't destroy the wood they're on. It's not crystalline or glass, but could hurt them, and would force all of them to make Constitution saves.

1:08:57 Emily: All right, then we're gonna go for a...

1:08:59 Brennan: You will also be hitting Adaine.

1:09:01 Emily: (screams) No!

1:09:03 Siobhan: It's fine.

1:09:04 Ally: You could shatter the.

1:09:04 Emily: I'm not going to.

1:09:05 Ally: Wouldn't you potentially shatter Adaine's new statue body?

1:09:10 Siobhan: Good question. Is my body now extremely buff?

1:09:13 Brennan: It's not.

1:09:14 Siobhan: It's gonna be bad in two turns, but right now I have stone skin.

1:09:18 Lou: Hellenic.

1:09:19 Brennan: It is not there yet.

1:09:21 Lou: Hellenic potential. The bottom of you is just beautiful.

1:09:25 Siobhan: (crosstalk) I’m so beautiful!

1:09:28 Emily: In that case, I am just going to. I guess I'm a one trick pony. I'm grabbing Gorgug and Dimension Dooring.

1:09:32 Fig: You wanna go for a ride?

1:09:32 Gorgug: Yes. I love this song.

1:09:35 Emily: Grabbing Gorgug, Dimension Door right to where the elves are.

1:09:39 Brennan: Hell yeah. Ooh baby, okay.

1:09:42 Emily: Then I have a bonus action. So I give Adaine a little more.

1:09:46 Brennan: Move to Gorgug, Dimension Door. You're up.

1:09:49 Emily: Then I give Adaine more Bardic Inspiration.

1:09:52 Ally: Hell yeah.

1:09:53 Brennan: Okay, cool, cool, cool.

1:09:57 Ally: The ice cream sandwich eventually starts to melt.

1:10:02 Brennan: Awesome.

1:10:02 Emily: You know what? Actually. Oh no, I can't cast any spells. Yeah, that's my turn.

1:10:07 Brennan: Cool. You guys are both standing on platforms right next to the elves, Adaine, and air elemental.

1:10:12 Emily: I also. I had to move to Gorgug.Yeah, I guess I'm just right in the mix, yeah. No way around it.

1:10:20 Brennan: Now, that's Fig. You Dimension Door--

1:10:24 Emily: Actually, you know what? Can I Dimension Door somewhere, so that I'm like a little bit away and Gorgug can run to them? Just to protect myself a bit.

1:10:32 Brennan: You can. I'll say that you have 10 feet of movement left if you wanna give me an Acrobatics check, because you're at the edge of one of the platforms right now.

1:10:40 Emily: I don't have anything good.

1:10:43 Brennan: DC-10.

1:10:43 Lou: You can do it.

1:10:44 Emily: I would not get that. I don't think, but I guess, let's go for it.

1:10:47 Lou: I believe!

1:10:49 Emily: Yeah, I got it!

1:10:50 Ally: Hey, nice!

1:10:51 Brennan: You jump on to another barrel in a different part of the netting. You're behind Gorgug, away from the other elves. Cool. That is Fig's turn. Angwyn is gonna hit you with another Dominate Person.

1:11:08 Siobhan: He can try. He can try.

1:11:10 Brennan: You threw another Bardic Inspiration to Adaine.

1:11:14 Ally: What is the DC again?

1:11:14 Siobhan: 15.

1:11:15 Ally: 15.

1:11:15 Brennan: 15.

1:11:17 Lou: We got this.

1:11:18 Siobhan: And it's Intelligence right?

1:11:19 Brennan: No, this is Wisdom. Wisdom saving throw.

1:11:20 Siobhan: Wisdom, right. That's fine. I have a plus 6 to wisdom. Yep, I make it 23. Siobhan’s rolls are 5 and 17, as she’s rolling with advantage.

1:11:27 Brennan: You resist, once again, as he attempts to enchant you.

1:11:30 Adaine: How many times have I told you, you can't tell me what to do?

1:11:34 Angwyn: I am—

1:11:35 Adiane: And to be clear, I'm not the Elven Oracle. I'm the Oracle of everybody. The elves do not own me. I am my own person.

1:11:42 Angwyn: Adaine, I don't understand why you insist on being so unreasonable. By the way.

1:11:46 Adaine: You try to control me with spells. You're the one that's being unreasonable.

1:11:51 Angwyn: A ‘hello father’ would be nice.

1:11:52 Adaine: You didn't say hello to me. Hello father.

1:11:57 Angwyn: I didn't want to.

1:11:59 Adaine: Well I didn't want to either.

1:12:01 Brennan: You see. Okay, no one is in the Row, down there right now. You see that Captain James's pirates are now fully like almost to the Ruction, having fought their way through.

1:12:13 Ally: How many of them are left?

1:12:15 Brennan: There's a bunch that are in the Row. There's only two left fighting you guys. This guy's going to rush over. He's gonna take some swings at Sandra Lynn. He's gonna hit twice. Sandra Lynn's not looking great. This guy’s gonna take some swings at Kristen and he misses, even though he's got advantage. Hits the next time. Kristen.

1:12:45 Zac: What happened to the Griffin?

1:12:47 Ally: Where's the fucking Griffin at?

1:12:49 Siobhan: Where'd that Griffin go?

1:12:49 Brennan: 12 points of damage.

1:12:50 Emily: That griffin is preening(?) on everyone.

1:12:51 Brennan: (slight smile) What's Kristen at?

1:12:55 Ally: Three.

1:12:56 Brennan: Three? Oof. (laughing)

1:12:57 Emily: Hundred?

1:12:58 Siobhan: (singing) 300! We're never gonna die. Zac shakes his head with a grim expression.

1:13:04 Brennan: Okay. That's gonna be another one.

1:13:11 Ally: Three, but I'm also stunned.

1:13:14 Lou: Three, but I’m stunned.

1:13:15 Ally: Three, but don't worry I am also still stunned.

1:13:21 Brennan: You see the young maiden looks at you (Adaine) again and says,

1:13:27 Elf: I understand you do not wish to come with us. The tide is slowly turning in your friends’ favor, though you are much injured.

1:13:35 Brennan: She raises (lifts her hand) and a point of fire appears above one of her fingers. She says,

1:13:40 Elf: Come with us. Me and my friends shall leave this fight and your friends will have only pirates to deal with. Choose to remain, and we will have to do what we must to secure your arrest.

1:13:54 Adaine: (long pause) You can take me, but I will never ever do what you want. Do you understand?

1:14:04 Elf: I understand. Do you submit to come with us and discuss the rest?

1:14:10 Brennan: (flickering) The fire starts to grow on her fingertip.

1:14:17 Siobhan: (shaking her head) Yeah, I go with them. What choice do I have? Brennan mimics a teleportation spell.

1:14:21 Ally: No, no! Emily yells unintelligibly.

1:14:23 Siobhan: What choice do I have? Everybody's died. Everybody's gonna die.

1:14:27 Ally: What's the Griffin doing?

1:14:30 Lou: Gilear was almost. Around the corner.

1:14:36 Siobhan: I'm sold on Gilear being the chosen one now. This is it.

1:14:40 Brennan: You see that all four of the elves and the air elemental, all vanish.

1:14:48 Ally: Does Tracker come back?

1:14:49 Fig: Adaine, I used my everything to try to save you!

1:14:52 Brennan: Unfortunately, the diviner who had dismissed Tracker is now out of combat somewhere else and is able to maintain concentration on—

1:15:07 Zac: Tracker doesn't make saves?

1:15:09 Brennan: Tracker has been making saves.

1:15:12 Emily: The diviner was not with the elves?

1:15:14 Brennan: No, the diviner's with the elves. Adaine, you vanish in a flash of light as this prepared teleportation goes off. All of you have a moment to watch this, until you hear,

1:15:25 Whitclaw: (wicked laughing) It's not over yet, boyos!

1:15:30 Brennan: And Captain James is going to leap into action. That is going to go immediately be Gorgug's turn. The elves all vanish in front of you as soon as you're up here. You see Riz next to Captain Whitclaw.

1:15:44 Gorgug: This is bad. Do we keep trying to take that crown?

1:15:47 Riz: We kill him.

1:15:48 Zac: I'm gonna. Does it make sense to try to take the crown or should I?

1:15:52 Murph: Let's kill him.

1:15:53 Emily: Yeah, we have no other objective now. There's only one person.

1:15:57 Zac: I'm going to take a reckless attack on Captain Whitclaw.

1:16:01 Brennan: Go ahead. You're gonna need to give me. What is your speed?

1:16:05 Zac: 40.

1:16:06 Brennan: This is difficult terrain, and you are effectively, you are not close enough to get to him in one movement unless you give me acrobatics.

1:16:17 Siobhan: Aren't barbarians unaffected by difficult terrain?

1:16:19 Brennan: You went to be near Adaine, correct? So you were near the elves that just vanished, and Whitclaw teleported to be closer to Riz.

1:16:26 Siobhan: Aren't barbarians unaffected by difficult terrain?

1:16:28 Zac: Might be a monk thing.

1:16:28 Brennan: No, that's a ranger thing.

1:16:30 Siobhan: That's a ranger thing.

1:16:31 Brennan: Yeah.

1:16:32 Zac: So what do I have to do?

1:16:32 Ally: Hey, maybe I’ll play ranger. Sounds cool.

1:16:33 Brennan: You can give me an Acrobatics check to just basically, or Athletics actually.

1:16:37 Siobhan: (crosstalk, to Ally) Sounds pretty cool.

1:16:37 Zac: Athletics.

1:16:38 Brennan: Cool.

1:16:38 Zac: Do that with an advantage.

1:16:39 Brennan: Do it with advantage.

1:16:42 Zac: That would be… 19.

1:16:44 Brennan: 19. You see complex rigging and netting and you just say fuck it, and Hulk jump through the air. Bam! And land right next to Captain Whitclaw. That's your movement. You can go ahead and take your attacks.

1:16:59 Zac: So these are reckless. First one. It's 16 plus nine, 25.

1:17:07 Brennan: Captain James casts Shield, and you crash through it. Boom!

1:17:12 Zac: That's the first attack. I'll just roll all my attacks.

1:17:15 Brennan: Awesome.

1:17:15 Zac: All right, so second attack. If he casts Shield, it probably won't. Shield's still up, right? So that's only a 17.

1:17:25 Brennan: 17, misses.

1:17:26 Zac: Then my frenzy.

1:17:30 Siobhan: (quietly) Yeah.

1:17:30 Zac: 27. So two attacks hit.

1:17:33 Brennan: (impressed) Hoo hoo hoo!

1:17:36 Murph: Love this energy.

1:17:36 Zac: What do we got? Am I missing a dice?

1:17:38 Lou: Much needed, much needed.

1:17:42 Zac: Would have loved to have crit. Impossible for me to crit for some reason. (rolls) Ooh! 11 and 12 plus 12.

1:17:51 Brennan: (stunned) 11 and 12 plus 12?

1:17:51 Zac: Yeah, because two hits, and so each one adds six, and then I rolled an 11.

1:17:59 Brennan: (wide-eyed) That's 35 damage?

1:18:00 Ally: Hell yeah.

1:18:01 Siobhan: Nice.

1:18:01 Lou: Yes!

1:18:04 Brennan: Captain James. This little psychic Shield covers him and you. Guh guh guh! Pow! (massive axe swing) You see that he drops into the rigging and pops back up. His shirt torn, covered in blood. That is Gorgug's turn. At the end of your turn, he's gonna take a swing at you.

1:18:27 Zac: Do it dude.

1:18:28 Brennan: He hits.

1:18:28 Zac: (resigned) Okay.

1:18:30 Siobhan: (laughing) Yeah.

1:18:32 Brennan: I'm gonna need an Intelligence saving throw.

1:18:35 Murph: Damn it.

1:18:36 Zac: All right.

1:18:37 Ally: You got it, man. You got it!

1:18:37 Emily: This might be a natural 20! This might be that.

1:18:41 Zac: 3?

1:18:44 Brennan: 3. You take 16 plus five, slashing halved. That’s 20, so 10.

1:18:49 Zac: I had five hit points.

1:18:52 Murph: Oh no.

1:18:52 Zac: I'm down but I have Relentless Endurance so that I’m at 1.

1:18:55 Brennan: He also deals a tremendous amount more than that of psychic damage to you, but it's all in one attack, so you just go to one.

1:19:05 Zac: Failing to save. Does that do anything besides just taking a lot of damage?

1:19:12 Brennan: (reading something) Sorry, one second. Repeat that one more time.

1:19:19 Zac: Did anything else happen, other than taking a bunch of damage?

1:19:21 Brennan: No, just a bunch of damage. He, just nasty, saber cuts you. You don't go down. You're at one. That is Gorgug. Sandra Lynn is gonna take a bunch of... No, she leaps up with Baxter, flies over to you (Gorgug) and she is going to leap off and heal you for six plus seven plus five, is 18 hit points, and Cathilda, leaps over to this other pirate attacking the stunned Kristen, and eviscerates him.

1:20:16 Kristen: (strained) Thank you. Thank you, Cathilda.

1:20:22 Brennan: She also kills the last pirate over there and darts into the Row.

1:20:27 Ally: Whoa! Cathilda's gonna be king.

1:20:31 Zac: C’mon, Fabian.

1:20:32 Lou: All I gotta do is get out of this stunned condition and then I'll be shooting my hand crossbow all over town.

1:20:40 Brennan: Okay. Um, actually, Cathilda doesn't dart into the Row. She darts to Fabian.

1:20:47 Lou: No, Cathilda, no.

1:20:50 Brennan: That's going to be, Ragh is gonna run over to Kristen and try to snap you out of it. It's gonna get the help action. This next saving throw.

1:21:12 Ally: Is that advantage? (starts to roll)

1:21:13 Brennan: That's advantage. Now Captain James, it's his turn again.

1:21:16 Zac: I think it's not your turn.

1:21:17 Ally: (stops rolling) Oh, got it, got it.

1:21:19 Brennan: Yes, yes, yes.

1:21:19 Ally: Get them hot.

1:21:21 Lou: Get them hot!

1:21:25 Ally: Sha!

1:21:29 Brennan: Captain Jim does not recharge his mind blast.

1:21:32 Zac: Good.

1:21:34 Brennan: Good.

1:21:36 Murph: You love to see it.

1:21:37 Siobhan: You love to see it.

1:21:38 Emily: You love to see it.

1:21:39 Zac: You love to see it.

1:21:39 Lou: (crosstalk) You love, to see it!

1:21:39 Siobhan: You gotta take your victories where you can. You gotta take your victory where you can.

1:21:44 Ally: Yeah.

1:21:45 Brennan: He does hit Gorgug again. Okay give me another Intelligence saving throw.

1:21:55 Zac: Okay, 16.

1:21:56 Brennan: 16, passes.

1:21:56 Lou: Yay!

1:22:00 Brennan: You do not take any additional psychic damage. You instead take nine plus five. 14 halved to 7 slashing damage.

1:22:06 Zac: Okay.

1:22:09 Brennan: He is also going to attempt an attack on you with his tentacles.

1:22:14 Zac: Get them tentacles away from me.

1:22:15 Siobhan: That's so creepy.

1:22:15 Brennan: That is a hit.

1:22:17 Siobhan: He's a child.

1:22:18 Lou: Get them damn tentacles away.

1:22:21 Zac: Is it like? Do I make a Strength save or anything?

1:22:25 Brennan: No.

1:22:25 Murph: Is he trying to eat your brain right now?

1:22:28 Ally and Lou: Is he trying to beak you right now?

1:22:29 Siobhan: Is he trying to bite your brain?

1:22:30 Lou: Is he trying to beak you?

1:22:31 Brennan: Give me another Intelligence saving throw.

1:22:32 Ally: Come on Gorgug.

1:22:35 Zac: You're the smart. You're the most talented wizard in all the land. 13?

1:22:39 Brennan: Not gonna do it.

1:22:41 Lou: No! Is he getting beaked?

1:22:43 Brennan: He is stunned until the grapple ends. You take 10 plus 14 psychic damage.

1:22:49 Zac: Down.

1:22:51 Brennan: You get stunned unconscious as his tentacles wrap over your head. (growling, sticks out tongue) He's just holding on to your body as his maw begins to—

1:23:01 Zac: Do my headphones block any of this?

1:23:05 Brennan: They are giving him some trouble getting his beak over your skull. That is...

1:23:09 Gorgug: Fabian!

1:23:12 Lou: Oh my God! I'm just stunned. Having a breakdown.

1:23:16 Brennan: Riz, that's you baby.

1:23:18 Murph: Oh boy. Okay. I don't know how I'm gonna save Gorgug here. Gorgug's getting pinned down, getting eaten. I need to get Captain James away from him.

1:23:33 Emily: Push him towards me.

1:23:34 Murph: I can't. I have such bad athletics. Truly, I have minus two Strength. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. Lou shakes his head so hard it rubs against the mic loudly. Ally attempts to catch a snack in their mouth and fails, tossing it into their lap. Emily laughs at them.

1:23:53 Murph: I guess I’m going to...

1:23:58 Ally: I don't wanna talk about it.

1:24:02 Siobhan: Minus three to Dex. Also in real life.

1:24:04 Zac: How hurt does he look?

1:24:07 Brennan: Fucked up!

1:24:07 Emily: Oh okay.

1:24:09 Brennan: You walloped him!

1:24:11 Murph: Okay great. Then if I hide first, then can I potentially get advantage?

1:24:18 Brennan: Yes, go ahead and give me a Stealth check first.

1:24:21 Murph: Come on please.

1:24:21 Zac: He has his whole mouth on my head.

1:24:23 Murph: That's great. That's 27. Actually, that's 30. Sneak attack. Please. (shaking dice aggressively) Come on. (rolls) That's a 28 to hit.

1:24:38 Brennan: 28 hits.

1:24:40 Murph: Come on! All right, I'm using the Sword of Shadows. (rolls a lot of dice) Okay, we like that. That's pretty good. That's okay. (counting under his breath) 25 damage.

1:25:01 Brennan: 25 damage? He is looking hurt. Adaine, though you are in another scene, I am gonna need another Constitution saving throw. Boggy can give you advantage on this.

1:25:13 Emily: Did you use that Bardic Inspiration?

1:25:13 Siobhan: No, I didn't, so I still have the Bardic if I need it. (rolls) Yeah, I'm gonna use that Bardic Inspiration. Uh… 11 plus… 16!

1:25:29 Brennan: You succeed.

1:25:33 Siobhan: Can I? Can I use one of my fourth level spell slots to cast Sending, and say to Ayda Aguefort,

1:25:46 Adaine: Help, my friends are being killed in the Row and the Ruction. Please help them.

1:25:50 Brennan: As Adaine, you are falling through motes of light in this Elven teleportation and feel the tether to Leviathan close behind you you take this pirate's spell and send it with the smell of sea wind. Your message carried away on the air. (wind blows) As you appear in a place that is filled with darkness, you hear an immediate response saying,

1:26:17 Ayda: Your friends are my friends.

1:26:18 Adaine: Thank you. Thank you.

1:26:23 Brennan: At the end of Riz's turn. The Captain is going to make an attack on Riz.

1:26:35 Lou: My man. He's just like.

1:26:38 Brennan: He's got Gorgug here with a, (brain slurping noises) and swings at Riz.

1:26:43 Ally: Gorgug's just like a baby in his one arm.

1:26:45 Brennan: I'm gonna need an Intelligence check from you.

1:26:48 Murph: Saving throw?

1:26:48 Brennan: Saving throw. Intelligence saving throw.

1:26:50 Murph: Come on please.

1:26:52 Ally: Wow!

1:26:53 Murph: 24.

1:26:55 Brennan: You take no additional psychic damage but you do take 12 points of slashing damage.

1:26:58 Murph: Can I use my reaction to halve that?

1:27:01 Brennan: Yes, you can.

1:27:02 Lou: Is that the first time you've been hit?

1:27:04 Brennan: Yeah, how much is Riz at right now?

1:27:06 Murph: Yeah, I'm at 54.

1:27:07 Brennan: 54, cool.

1:27:07 Ally: Wow.

1:27:07 Lou: (pointing to Murph) This guy.

1:27:11 Brennan: That is Riz. Kristen, you have advantage. Let's get that Intelligence save. Ally rolls, then throws their hands in the air.

1:27:16 Zac: Ally...

1:27:20 Murph: Yo. Insane.

1:27:21 Ally: Nine and a four.

1:27:22 Emily: Oh my good God. Brennan puts a hand over his mouth in shock, then shakes his head.

1:27:23 Murph: We've switched. We’ve switched.

1:27:26 Ally: We've absolutely switched.

1:27:28 Brennan: Oh no.

1:27:31 Ally: Another ice cream sandwich.

1:27:33 Zac: How many rounds does it last?

1:27:34 Brennan: It lasts a minute.

1:27:35 Siobhan: I will give you all of Ally and Lou's good rolls.

1:27:37 Murph: I much prefer the rogue being stunned to the cleric. I would give you my rolls if I could.

1:27:43 Brennan: Fabian, you are gonna get a help action, or you're gonna get a re-roll on this from Cathilda. Go ahead and give us, your Intelligence save.

1:27:52 Zac: Believe in yourself.

1:27:55 Lou: That's a 12, a 14.

1:27:58 Brennan: 14 does not do it.

1:27:59 Emily: Go ahead again, re-roll. Re-roll. Re-roll. Your character sheet's gonna be.

1:28:07 Lou: (smiling helplessly) 12.

1:28:09 Zac: This is the worst fight we've ever had. And one fight we died.

1:28:12 Ally: Including the corn cuties!

1:28:14 Siobhan: Really awful.

1:28:14 Brennan: Oh no.

1:28:17 Lou: It's so wet over here, and it wasn't even worth it. Wasn't even worth it.

1:28:19 Emily: Corn cuties we were level one!

1:28:22 Brennan: I don't understand a bit. Captain Jim is gonna take another swipe at you. Another legendary action, Riz.

1:28:32 Murph: Yikes.

1:28:33 Brennan: He hits. Go ahead and give me another Intelligence saving throw.

1:28:36 Ally: You got it, Riz.

1:28:37 Murph: Come on now. That's an 18.

1:28:40 Brennan: 18 succeeds. You still take 13 points of slashing damage.

1:28:43 Fig: (high-pitched) Smart!

1:28:43 Murph: I don't like it.

1:28:45 Riz: Thanks, Fig!

1:28:46 Lou: (mimicking Emily) Smart!

1:28:48 Ally: That was the most Katie response I've ever heard in my life.

1:28:52 Brennan: Fig, that is your turn.

1:28:52 Ally: Smart!

1:28:52 Emily: Okay, I want to attack James Whitclaw.

1:29:00 Brennan: Awesome.

1:29:00 Emily: So I'm gonna go, and I'm just gonna go after him.

1:29:03 Brennan: Cool, is this a ranged attack?

1:29:05 Emily: No, I'd like to do, like melee.

1:29:07 Brennan: He's in range, but only if you make an acrobatics check to get across or somehow use—

1:29:11 Emily: I have a dash, from my skateboard.

1:29:13 Zac: Nice.

1:29:15 Murph: Sick.

1:29:15 Lou: I’m gonna use my movement to do a bunch of sick— I’m gonna grind—

1:29:19 Murph: What snake(?) are you skateboarding?

1:29:22 Brennan: I'm gonna say this is not normally mechanic in DnD but you do get, hold on one second.

1:29:30 Murph: A sick Ollie? Kickflip?

1:29:30 Brennan: (rolls) Yeah, you do get 1,300 points from your sick shredding, as you shred, kickflip, Ollie, kick, hop, hop, hop, grind!

1:29:41 Lou: Hop, hop.

1:29:42 Brennan: And you close in on Captain Whitclaw.

1:29:45 Emily: I'm gonna attack with my frickin' bass guitar. That's gonna be a 14. Does a 14 hit?

1:29:52 Brennan: 14 does not hit.

1:29:53 Emily: Well fuck my life. Then I'm gonna bonus word healing. Bonus action Healing Word Gorgug.

1:29:59 Zac: Yeah, you love to see it.

1:30:01 Siobhan: You love to see it.

1:30:02 Lou: (exaggerated gameshow host voice) You love to see it!

1:30:03 Emily: I'm gonna do a level three.

1:30:07 Brennan: Awesome.

1:30:09 Emily: I'll tell you in a second.

1:30:10 Brennan: Cool. You do Healing Word. That is Fig's turn. Nobody is in the Row right now. All the pirates who were fighting you all are dead.

1:30:24 Emily: (telling Gorgug his HP) 15.

1:30:24 Zac: 18?

1:30:25 Emily: 15.

1:30:25 Zac: 15.

1:30:26 Brennan: Gorgug, that's gonna be you.

1:30:29 Murph: Clutch.

1:30:30 Brennan: He has you grappled. You are stunned. You did fail that save, so you are stunned until the grapple ends.

1:30:38 Zac: Even if I went down and came back up?

1:30:41 Emily: Yeah, I just healed him.

1:30:42 Brennan: Oh that's an interesting question.

1:30:43 Zac: I was unconscious. Came back to.

1:30:43 Emily: I was riding a skateboard while I did it.

1:30:46 Brennan: To have this be fair, I'm gonna allow you to re-roll the Intelligence save.

1:30:53 Zac: Okay.

1:30:55 Ally: Come on Gorgug.

1:30:58 Zac: Three.

1:30:58 Brennan: Three is not gonna do it. So you are still stunned. You are still grappled and stunned.

1:31:03 Emily: Sorry, maybe I should have. Actually, no, I think if you were down, He would have munched your head.

1:31:05 Zac: Yeah.

1:31:07 Lou: You were like automatic.

1:31:10 Brennan: Sandra Lynn is gonna rush Captain James. (sighs) She's gonna have Baxter do it actually. That's gonna be a 10.

1:31:27 Lou: We just kind of freak out.

1:31:29 Ally: This griffin hasn’t been stunned once.

1:31:30 Murph: Intelligence saves are tough.

1:31:33 Ally: Yeah.

1:31:33 Murph: Nobody puts anything into Intelligence.

1:31:34 Zac: Not exactly the wise.

1:31:36 Brennan: You (Gorgug) come out of your stunned effect. Sandra Lynn shoulders her bow. Baxter takes a swipe at Whitclaw. He steps back and Sandra Lynn leaps off of the barrel, puts her shoulder into Captain James and they both fall out of the rigging into the Row together.

1:31:56 Siobhan: Nice.

1:31:56 Zac: Oh no!

1:31:56 Murph: Into the Row?

1:31:58 Brennan: Yes.

1:32:00 Emily: Oh dear.

1:32:01 Zac: I don't get to make a move.

1:32:02 Brennan: No, you come out of stunned as he leaves. Ragh's gonna give another help action to Kristen.

1:32:11 Emily: Wait, wasn't that an attack of opportunity?

1:32:12 Siobhan: He's moving. Yeah, wouldn't Riz have an attack of opportunity?

1:32:16 Brennan: No, because he's being moved against his will. He's not triggering any attacks of opportunity.

1:32:22 Siobhan: Trying to get any damage against these people. I'm not here. I'm in Fallinel.

1:32:31 Ally: Ignore me. I'm turning into stone with my dad.

1:32:35 Siobhan: God, so embarrassing. Turning into stone with my stupid dad.

1:32:47 Emily: None of these will hit.

1:32:49 Brennan: Oh no.

1:32:50 Emily: Maybe you should make people that have AC's of like 10, because I think I could hit them.

1:32:55 Siobhan: Yeah, you could make people really easy to kill.

1:32:58 Lou: Yeah, he's not wearing armor. He's just wearing clothes.

1:33:01 Emily: Yeah, I was aiming for a tentacle.

1:33:04 Siobhan: Got really drunk the night before so he was just not on his best.

1:33:10 Brennan: Sandra Lynn, it's Captain James's turn. She goes to the floor of the Row with him. She rolls off him, and instead of him rolling, he leaps over and stabs her through the chest and she goes full incapacitated. And pushes off to stand up and rips the saber out of her chest as her eyes glaze over.

1:33:33 Ally: Fuck!

1:33:33 Emily: What?

1:33:35 Siobhan: This guy sucks!

1:33:37 Emily: (scared noise) Mama!

1:33:38 Brennan: That is. He stands up. He's gonna make an Athletics check, and he climbs the rigging and leaps back up into the Ruction overhead holding the crown. That is Captain James's turn. Riz, that's you.

1:33:56 Murph: Oh boy. I will. Gorgug is up, right? Gorgug is probably not within five feet of him right now.

1:34:04 Zac: I don't know how close I am.

1:34:08 Murph: I'm trying to get sneak attack.

1:34:08 Brennan: Captain James right now.

1:34:10 Zac: That's where if she knocked him off of me and then he came back right up, I could see him being within five feet right?

1:34:18 Brennan: He's in the corner of the Ruction right now, so he's not within five feet of anyone.

1:34:22 Murph: I'm gonna try to. I have.

1:34:27 Zac: Can you just hide?

1:34:29 Murph: I can hide, yeah. Yeah, I'm gonna try that. I'm gonna hide first. 29.

1:34:39 Brennan: Cool. You're hidden.

1:34:40 Lou: Really did take all the good ones.

1:34:41 Murph: And I will shoot. Come on.

1:34:44 Ally: Yes! Yes!

1:34:47 Murph: That's a nat 20!

1:34:49 Brennan: Ooh!

1:34:50 Murph: You love to see it!

1:34:51 Siobhan: You love to see it!

1:34:53 Ally: Wow! Fuck yeah!

1:34:54 Siobhan: Double those dice!

1:34:57 Lou: Double those dice.

1:35:00 Zac: Double sneak attack?

1:35:01 Siobhan: Yeah. Double sneak attack.

1:35:01 Ally: Hell yeah.

1:35:02 Brennan: Jesus Christ.

1:35:02 Ally: My baby. We were born to see it.

1:35:08 Lou: Born to see it.

1:35:11 Murph: Okay. (begins to aggressively shake a large handful of dice)

1:35:11 Lou: There it is. Murph stands up to roll over the table.

1:35:12 Ally: Who are you, Brennan?

1:35:14 Lou: (to Brennan) How you feel about that? How you feel about that sound?

1:35:16 Siobhan: Delicious.

1:35:17 Ally: Oh! So many sixes!

1:35:19 Murph: Oh my—! This is.. Oh, this is wonderful. Okay, great. This is good. We like to see this.

1:35:29 Siobhan: I feel like I should vamp but I'm so enthralled by these dice.

1:35:34 Brennan: An incredible amount of dice.

1:35:37 Lou: Delicately lift it.

1:35:39 Brennan: My god.

1:35:40 Emily: That's good too, because some of the dice he's using I've considered cursed in the past.

1:35:43 Murph: 47 damage. Brennan sits back in his seat, taking a deep breath.

1:35:47 Ally: Wee-o, wee-o, wee!

1:35:51 Lou: Like a damn cop car. Murph mimics taking a shot down the sights of a gun.

1:35:52 Ally: Call the ambulance.

1:35:55 Brennan: You raise your pistol, fire, and hit him square in the stomach. He stumbles back in the rigging, falls back, goes prone on the ground, and you see a horrifying blast of something in his gut erupt. Some weird mind flayer thing, and he shudders and goes stiff. Riz, do you do? That was your attack. Do you do anything else with your movement that turn?

1:36:32 Murph: Yeah, I wanna run over and try to grab the crown from him.

1:36:34 Brennan: You rush over to grab the crown. He raises a gun and shoots you point blank as you get close.

1:36:39 Siobhan and Emily: What?

1:36:40 Brennan: He goes,

1:36:40 Whitclaw: Oldest trick in the book, boyo. (gun blast)

1:36:44 Emily: That would be a mind flayer, right?

1:36:47 Lou: Brennan would have like.

1:36:50 Emily: He didn't say he was dead. He said “goes still”.

1:36:51 Lou: He didn't normally put his normal cinematic and this is the death kind of spin on it. Brennan is nodding, with a small smile.

1:36:56 Brennan: Give me an Intelligence saving throw.

1:37:01 Lou: Take our luck, Murph. Take our luck and run.

1:37:06 Murph: Fuck, 10.

1:37:09 Brennan: (counting quietly) Two, three.

1:37:12 Murph: I'm gonna use Uncanny Dodge obviously. [tense adventure music]

1:37:23 Brennan: You take 10, 15, 20, 30, 39, 41. 46 points of damage.

1:37:39 Murph: Uncanny Dodge.

1:37:39 Brennan: Cool, 23 points of damage.

1:37:43 Murph: Yikes.

1:37:43 Brennan: And at the end of your turn, he's gonna swing at you again.

1:37:46 Murph: God damn it.

1:37:50 Lou: What?

1:37:50 Brennan: Oh no, sorry. That was him swinging at you at the end of your turn. Kristen, that's gonna be you.

1:37:57 Zac: Come on Kristen.

1:37:57 Emily: Come on!

1:37:57 Siobhan: This is the time. It's gonna happen.

1:38:00 Ally: Hey, that's a 13.

1:38:03 Siobhan: No.

1:38:04 Zac: You failed that five times, four times? How many times?

1:38:08 Ally: I wanna say. I wanna paint the picture. There are now nine ice cream sandwiches. Melting around me. I'm at 3 hit points, and I'm murmuring,

1:38:18 Kristen: Tracker, Tracker.

1:38:24 Lou: This is wild.

1:38:25 Ally: If this is a nat 20, can one of those ice cream sandwiches get Tracker?

1:38:28 Brennan: Hit a nat 20. Hit a nat 20.

1:38:31 Murph: So close.

1:38:32 Lou: Truly one polyhedral side away.

1:38:39 Brennan: Hold on one second. You guys see something.

1:38:46 Fig: Riz, don't go down, because I've gotta save my mom. Okay? Do not go down.

1:38:51 Riz: Okay. I’ll try. I'm truly trying so hard.

1:38:54 Gorgug: Try harder. I know it's not your turn, and you can't do anything.

1:38:58 Fig: I think it’s a good idea if you try to not go down.

1:39:00 Fabian: Come on, The Ball.

1:39:07 Lou: This fight is crazy.

1:39:08 Brennan: You guys see. This is so brutal.

1:39:10 Zac: This is sloppy.

1:39:13 Brennan: This is sloppy. At the end of Kristen's turn.

1:39:16 Emily: Where have you been, you little bitch?

1:39:18 Brennan: The end of Kristen's turn. James is taking another swing.

1:39:20 Zac: God damn it.

1:39:22 Brennan: That's a hit. Give me another intelligence saving throw, Riz.

1:39:26 Murph: 22.

1:39:28 Brennan: He deals you 14, 19 points of slashing damage.

1:39:31 Murph: I'm down.

1:39:31 Emily: No!

1:39:32 Brennan: He takes out a saber, and Riz falls. Give me a Dexterity saving throw.

1:39:40 Murph: 12.

1:39:41 Brennan: Riz falls through the netting into the Row next to the incapacitated, or the dying, Sandra Lynn below. That's going to be Fabian, that's you.

1:39:54 Ally: There's no part of this weekend where we publicly saw you have to give out a lot of XP, bleeding over into this campaign. There's no bad blood there, right? There was like a video where a guy put his armpit on your face… (crosstalk)

1:40:09 Zac: Fabian! Do it!

1:40:11 Siobhan: That seems unfair to take revenge.

1:40:12 Ally: I wasn’t there! I’ve never been to big bear(?).

1:40:16 Zac: This is the one. This is the one.

1:40:19 Lou: (rolling into the cup of water again) Nope.

1:40:19 Ally: Almost looked like a nat one.

1:40:20 Zac: Get that water out of here!

1:40:23 Emily: Stop going in the water.

1:40:24 Ally: Maybe if you drink the water.

1:40:27 Zac: What's happening? Murph has his glasses off in disgust again.

1:40:29 Lou: Eight and 11.

1:40:30 Brennan: There's no reason to have not rolled over the DC by now. I just want everyone to know. I want everyone at home to know. This is a wild statistical anomaly.

1:40:42 Lou: The water didn't help. The water doesn't help.

1:40:45 Siobhan: Just double down every time. You'll make your money back.

1:40:51 Brennan: At the end of Fabian's turn, James is going to take an attack on Gorgug with his pistol.

1:41:12 Ally: Has he been able to attack after all of our turns the whole time?

1:41:15 Brennan: He's got legendary action.

1:41:15 Murph: He gets a few every round.

1:41:18 Emily: He's probably got all those resistances right? That's why I haven’t cast any spells.

1:41:22 Murph: He hasn't used them.

1:41:23 Siobhan: Yeah, he hasn't used any of them.

1:41:24 Zac: We haven't done anything, he had to do a save on.

1:41:28 Siobhan: We've only done...

1:41:29 Emily: Yeah, because I can't even cast spells on him though because I have to Healing Word.

1:41:32 Brennan: You take 18 points of piercing damage halved to nine.

1:41:36 Zac: Okay, so I'm at six.

1:41:43 Brennan: That's gonna be Fig.

1:41:45 Murph: Don't feel pressure to bring me up.

1:41:48 Emily: I'm bringing you up!

1:41:49 Murph: I know but your character will probably bring your mom up. It's okay. I'm not.

1:41:52 Zac: Did the Griffin go?

1:41:53 Brennan: You also by the way would know that your mom has Cure spells and shit like that.

1:41:58 Emily: Yes, you're right. I just feel so bad, not bringing up my husband.

1:42:03 Murph: Appreciated. I'll give you a pass. Your character would help your mom before she would help Riz.

1:42:08 Emily: James Whitclaw's on the floor, right?

1:42:10 Brennan: No, James Whitclaw's back up in the Ruction with you guys fighting.

1:42:14 Emily: Okay, well I'm gonna attack him because I only have a bonus action healing anyways so I'm gonna try to attack him. I was hoping to jump down on him, but.

1:42:22 Brennan: Cool.

1:42:25 Emily: (rolls) Fuck you. Why didn't you? Maybe it's still done though. 20. Wait it was 14 plus eight. 22?

1:42:34 Brennan: 22 to hit. It's been his last turn. Let me see if he— He might be out of spell slots by now actually.

1:42:40 Siobhan: Nice.

1:42:45 Brennan: Homeboy's out of spell slots. That hits.

1:42:47 Emily: That's a Booming Blade. So if he moves willingly before later, he'll take two d8 thunder damage, but I'm also adding my Psychic Blades so he takes, oh and I actually Hexblade Cursed him so my proficiency exposed to him.

1:43:02 Murph: Oh I forgot you’re a Hexblade! That's awesome.

1:43:06 Ally: Remember that time? At that point of the...

1:43:09 Lou: We were all standing there, ready to fight.

1:43:11 Ally: When we had so many plans for how our turn would go.

1:43:14 Emily: 28. I hit him for 28!

1:43:18 Ally: That's great.

1:43:19 Brennan: For 28 points of damage, huh?

1:43:21 Emily: Yes, and then he's also got, if he moves willingly, before the start of my next turn, he'll take two d8 thunder damage more.

1:43:32 Brennan: Okay, hold on one second. He is truly hanging on by a thread. You (boom!) (mimics whacking the Captain with a bass) And then you bring Sandra Lynn back up?

1:43:49 Emily: And then I Healing Word Sandra Lynn. I'm gonna go another third level. I'll get her for. Seven. Another 15.

1:43:59 Brennan: Another 15.

1:43:59 Ally: Nice.

1:44:00 Murph: Good turn.

1:44:01 Brennan: Sandra Lynn pops back up. That is going to—

1:44:05 Emily: I'm also gonna, you know what? I'm also gonna bonus action. Oh wait, no. Nevermind, I can't.

1:44:14 Brennan: Okay, how much do you do for your mom, sorry?

1:44:16 Emily: 15.

1:44:18 Brennan: 15.

1:44:19 Fig: Mom, get Riz. He's my husband in real life!

1:44:25 Gorgug: Real life?

1:44:27 Kristen: What? What do you mean real life?

1:44:32 Brennan: Your mom immediately takes 20 halved to 10 from her successful save. All the pirates clocking her in the head down here. Riz, you get two death save failures from these dudes just stomping on your head as you are in the middle of this fist fight.

1:44:52 Murph: Unconscious,

1:44:52 Riz: Fabian, save me!

1:44:55 Fabian: The Ball, I'm just stunned.

1:44:58 Murph: I keep trying to think like, I'm gonna give Fabian a speech. He can't help me if he wants to.

1:45:05 Brennan: Gorgug, after you, the hirelings will go, but after that it will be Captain James again. You can tell that this is truly the last moment where something can possibly happen to turn the tide of this. Fig has just shredded through Captain James.

1:45:31 Zac: Going to fully rush him and attack. (rock music starts) Reckless attack so first, does a 17 hit?

1:45:44 Brennan: 17 does not hit. That's your first attack.

1:45:45 Zac: Second attack. 20 hit?

1:45:49 Brennan: 20 hits. Roll that third attack.

1:45:55 Zac: 16 plus nine.

1:45:57 Ally: Yeah, hell yeah. 25.

1:45:58 Zac: I can't fucking crit, sorry.

1:46:00 Brennan: I'm gonna let you know something right now. Hold on one second. Let me just.

1:46:06 Murph: (singing My Chemical Romance to the background music) I'm not okay!

1:46:10 Brennan: Okay. I'm gonna let you know this right now. Captain James only has 20 hit points left. We're gonna roll this in the Box of Doom. How much do you have to roll on the dice to yield 20 points each?

1:46:26 Zac: I need to roll eight.

1:46:28 Brennan: That's very doable with two D-12.

1:46:31 Zac: Because I automatically hit him for 12.

1:46:33 Brennan: Automatically hit him for 12. Just trying to get that last eight points of damage.

1:46:36 Zac: Ready? Zac rolls in the box. One of them is in shadow, but the other is a one.

1:46:42 Brennan: 10 points of damage.

1:46:44 Zac: I saw one of them was a one, I was like—

1:46:46 Lou: I saw the one first—

1:46:47 Ally: I saw the one also, but I couldn’t tell what the other one was.

1:46:49 Brennan: Jesus. You rush forward. It is Fig and the Cig Fig's time baby. (power chords, burst) Captain James Whitclaw is killed.

1:47:07 Gorgug: Hey, I'm actually Fabian.

1:47:11 Emily: In the battle frenzy, I'm like yeah! (mimics hitting someone prone) Hitting you with my guitar. Yeah, yeah!

1:47:18 Brennan: I'm gonna say each of you guys give me Dexterity saves.

1:47:24 Emily: Oh, I hate you. I hate this dice.

1:47:26 Zac: Good God. I only got a nine with advantage.

1:47:28 Emily: 23.

1:47:29 Brennan: You snatch the crown of the Pirate King out of the air.

1:47:32 Emily: I skateboard away.

1:47:34 Brennan: You skateboard off. You see Captain James falls through the rigging. As he does so, Sandra Lynn rushes over, grabs you (Riz), casts another Cure Wounds. Your failed death saves go away.

1:47:43 Riz: Thank you, Sandra Lynn.

1:47:53 Emily: I captured his soul when he died.

1:47:55 Brennan: Oh, great. You (gobbling noises) split them up. Scoop up his soul.

1:47:57 Emily: Going fishing.

1:47:59 Lou: Wild, all these souls.

1:48:00 Zac: There's a bunch of pirates here.

1:48:01 Emily: I'm assuming they all reset so probably I lost all the other ones I sold. Since he died, and I Hexblade cursed him, I actually get hit points.

1:48:12 Brennan: Oh great.

1:48:15 Zac: Are these guys still stunned? Now that he’s dead?

1:48:18 Brennan: I'm gonna say for our purposes, you guys come out of your stunned condition. What you guys see is the Row and the Ruction. Captain James's crew all watches as he dies, and quickly the mood resets (metal music changes to piratey strings) as the other non-Crimson Claw pirates begin to just beat the shit out of, climb up into the rigging, kill James's crew. Everyone here hates Captain Whitclaw, so they just quickly kill his crew and the other pirates cheer you guys. If you go into the Row, they'll hit you in the face good naturedly, but otherwise are—

1:48:57 Emily: Can I like lasso Riz and bring him up because he was down in the Row?

1:49:01 Brennan: Sandra Lynn barrels him out of there very quickly.

1:49:04 Riz: (strained) Thank you so much.

1:49:06 Brennan: And we exit combat.

1:49:08 Ally: Wow!

1:49:12 Emily: I think I hide the crown under my shirt until we're all privately together.

1:49:18 Brennan: You hide it. Gotcha.

1:49:19 Ally: This shit came down on me while I'm unconscious.

1:49:23 Brennan: You see very quickly.

1:49:26 Kristen: My girlfriend's gone.

1:49:28 Fabian: Yeah, is Tracker?

1:49:29 Siobhan: She'll be back in a minute.

1:49:30 Fig: Yeah, where's Tracker?

1:49:32 Ally: Can I cast Banishment on myself?

1:49:33 Fabian: Can I come with you?

1:49:36 Brennan: Here's the thing. I need to look this up real quick because this is potentially.

1:49:40 Zac: Oh for a full minute? She might be gone.

1:49:43 Murph: She might be gone forever.

1:49:43 Brennan: Quite bad. No, no sorry. This is okay. A few moments later, Tracker reappears. Tracker quickly heals everybody but Ragh shakes you awake, Kristen and goes,

1:49:57 Ragh: Kristen, Kristen, Wake up, wake up. We did it. It's good. It's all done. It's good, it's good.

1:50:01 Kristen: (yelling) Where's all the ice cream?

1:50:02 Brennan: He says,

1:50:02 Ragh: Adaine’s fucking gone. She’s gone. She saved us. They were gonna fuckin' blast us while we were all unconscious and she agreed to go and they took her.

1:50:13 Brennan: You guys see that, Fabian, you come out of it. Cathilda is there looking at you. She looks up. You see that she is just smiling. She's got a little bit of blood on her. She looks up, smiles, says,

1:50:32 Cathilda: (gently) It's all right. It's all right Master Fabian.

1:50:39 Fabian: I can't do anything.

1:50:39 Cathilda: I didn’t do anything either.

1:50:42 Fabian: You did so.

1:50:42 Cathilda: No. It’s alright.

1:50:44 Fabian: Yes.

1:50:46 Cathilda: Look, sometimes you think that a fight is going to be your moment, to climactically grow up.

1:50:56 Fabian: Avenge your father's wishes.

1:50:57 Cathilda: Avenge your father's wishes.

1:50:58 Fabian: Make sure the traditions that he set forth for a city remain in place, and instead you get stunned almost immediately, and you don't move, and you have to watch your friends die, and live again and die, and be transported other places. Is that what you were going to say?

1:51:19 Cathilda: (at a loss) Why don't we go get some kippers?

1:51:21 Fabian: I don't want kippers.

1:51:24 Brennan: You see. She looks out at the assembled people here. Fig, Cathilda walks over to you, and says,

1:51:38 Cathilda: Hello there Mistress Fig. Well, you've taken, so it's yours to do with what you will but if you'd like I'd be happy to take that crown off your hands.

1:51:55 Kristen: You've never trusted Cathilda.

1:52:00 Fig: I was thinking of using it as a bargaining chip to get someone to teleport us to Fallinel.

1:52:06 Brennan: You guys hear a noise suddenly (screeching) of a blast of flame. Ayda Aguefort stands here looking around. You see that she approaches all of you and as she does, she goes and says, (no music)

1:52:22 Ayda: That will not be necessary. A bargaining chip will not be needed to teleport you. I can avail my services to you as of this present moment.

1:52:32 Kristen: Great, because I just worked. I'm exhausted. I need to get out of here. Too much fighting.

1:52:38 Ayda: You do seem quite badly injured. There's a tone to your voice I can't quite detect.

1:52:45 Kristen: Did anyone watch me specifically that whole time or were you all kind of your own?

1:52:49 Riz: We all had our little moments. I got shot right in the face.

1:52:54 Fig: All I know is when I found you at the end there was so many melted ice cream sandwiches.

1:52:58 Gorgug: There was a beak on my head for a little bit.

1:53:02 Kristen: Yeah. So I had a snack. Is Tracker back?

1:53:08 Brennan: Tracker reappears. She's like. (heavy breathing) Gives you a big hug.

1:53:12 Kristen: Are you okay?

1:53:13 Tracker: Okay, I was in some crazy maze world!

1:53:15 Kristen: What?

1:53:15 Tracker: Like a maze!

1:53:17 Kristen: Oh God!

1:53:19 Tracker: It sucked!

1:53:20 Kristen: We missed you! You missed my— (quietly) I didn't fight at all. I got stunned, and I couldn't get out of it.

1:53:27 Tracker: I didn't fight either. I was stuck in a maze.

1:53:28 Kristen: I was stunned for maybe what feels like nine rounds.

1:53:32 Tracker: Yeah, I mean honestly, it feels like, yeah it was a long time.

1:53:38 Kristen: We'll get ‘em next time.

1:53:39 Brennan: You see that Ragh puts his hands on your back along with Tracker. Cathilda pats you. She's just in her whole badass pirate getup and mostly did not enter the fight and stayed with you. She says,

1:53:53 Cathilda: It's all right. Master Fabian, I didn't want to fight that bad.

1:53:57 Fabian: No it’s not. You got dressed to fight. You got dressed to fight. You took off your maid outfit, and you get dressed to fight and then you just hung out with me. Riz got. Riz died. He probably wouldn't have died.

1:54:01 Cathilda: Riz didn’t die.

1:54:05 Fabian: He like kind of died.

1:54:09 Riz: I almost died.

1:54:09 Cathilda: He got shot. It was a fun pirate trick,

1:54:14 Riz: Two death fails, Cathilda. Two. I almost died.

1:54:15 Cathilda: Where he made like he was dead, and then.

1:54:16 Fabian: He got punched a lot in the Row.

1:54:18 Cathilda: Is almost died the same as having died?

1:54:20 Riz: No. It's not.

1:54:20 Fabian: No.

1:54:23 Riz: Fabian. I think we all saw this going a little bit more epically, but Adaine is gone. She sacrificed herself to save us and it just kind of shows that it's not the end. We gotta keep going. We didn't bring our A game this time, but.

1:54:53 Fig: Hey, Fabian?

1:54:53 Riz: It still keeps going. You'll be a hero next time.

1:54:59 Fabian: Yeah The Ball, next time, next time.

1:55:00 Riz: Hoot? Growl? Is that what we say when we get punked?

1:55:04 Fabian: Yeah, that’s what we say. We say hoot growl.

1:55:04 Brennan: Ragh goes,

1:55:04 Ragh: (lowly) Hoot growl. Hoot growl. Hoot growl. Riz & Fabian: (weakly) Hoot growl.

1:55:07 Brennan: You see that Jamina Joy walks up. Coming inside she goes,

1:55:17 Jamina: (looks around, whirring) I see that it has been decided there is no Pirate King in Leviathan.

1:55:23 Fig: Yeah, I'm gonna bring this crown away from here and there never will be.

1:55:28 Brennan: You see Cathilda looks at you, smiles, and goes,

1:55:33 Cathilda: (golf clap) I love that idea.

1:55:34 Fig: Do you?

1:55:34 Emily: Can I do an Insight check?

1:55:38 Murph: Fig, Fig, please. Please Fig.

1:55:40 Emily: 11.

1:55:42 Brennan: She looks and says,

1:55:46 Cathilda: I don't know what sort of beef you think we have, but.

1:55:48 Fig: I don't have beef. I'm just got my eye on all exits and entrances, if you know what I'm talking about.

1:55:56 Cathilda: Do you?

1:55:56 Fabian: Like a German Shepherd.

1:55:59 Fig: (laughing) Like a German Shepherd. Just saying you make a lot of cookies.

1:56:04 Cathilda: I do make a lot of cookies. Is there something wrong with that?

1:56:07 Fig: No, it's actually really awesome. It's too good to be true.

1:56:11 Cathilda: (without usual good humor) I assure you, it's just good, and it's true.

1:56:14 Fig: Okay.

1:56:16 Cathilda: Do I make myself clear?

1:56:17 Fig: Yeah. Actually, I don't. If you're secretly. Look, the Nightmare King could be anyone except for my six friends.

1:56:26 Cathilda: (tilts head) All right.

1:56:35 Zac: I wanna grab his sword. Captain Whitclaw's sword.

1:56:40 Brennan: Hell yeah. Cool. You grab it.

1:56:43 Zac: Put it in front of Fabian and hit it. Stab into the planks.

1:56:46 Brennan: You see Cathilda looks and goes,

1:56:50 Cathilda: Ooh, well, if you would like to have Captain Whitclaw's sword and we all had an equal part in helping get it.

1:57:00 Fabian: I don't deserve. Gorgug, you killed him. This is yours. You should.

1:57:05 Gorgug: Well do you want it? Will you use the sword?

1:57:08 Fig: Yeah, I'll use the sword.

1:57:10 Brennan: You see Jamina Joy, uh.. Cool, you can grab it. As soon as you grab it, it feels like touching a live wire. Being electrocuted, it doesn't hurt. It's just like a too intense feeling and it's just pure hatred manifesting in the sword.

1:57:25 Gorgug: Unless you don't want it. I mean, I'm just. Look, weird day, right? Weird day? Fabian & Others: Weird day.

1:57:32 Ally: Yeah, can I talk to Fabian?

1:57:32 Brennan: Jamina Joy also says,

1:57:35 Jamina: Very good. You have saved Leviathan from what would have been a darker fate. Also there is an unconscious elven man in a badly crashed van outside.

1:57:44 Murph: He got into a car accident? Lou laughs loudly. Zac, Murph and Ally all put their faces in their hands.

1:57:54 Emily: For a second, I was. For a second, I was so hopeful it was the divination elf but no, it was my dad.

1:58:04 Riz: We really need to get to Adaine.

1:58:05 Fig: Yes. Yeah, so.

1:58:06 Gorgug: I just don't know. I just don't know what's going on guys.

1:58:10 Fig: Ayda, will you send us to Fallinel? We need to save Adaine.

1:58:14 Ayda: It can be arranged. Adaine is my friend. We established it earlier. We had pure verbal confirmation that we are friends now.

1:58:20 Fig: It was very formal. Very binding.

1:58:23 Ayda: What exactly made it formal?

1:58:26 Riz: The fact that you guys both said that you were friends, is usually more than what most people would do in a friendship situation.

1:58:32 Ayda: What would be standard? Explain.

1:58:33 Fig: It's sort of an unspoken thing usually.

1:58:34 Riz: It’s just organic.

1:58:36 Ayda: That sounds deeply confusing and inefficient.

1:58:38 Riz: It is. It honestly is.

1:58:38 Fig: It is. It very much so is.

1:58:40 Ayda: Good. I’m glad we are on the same page.

1:58:41 Riz: It's super confusing. Your way is way better.

1:58:43 Ayda: It makes more sense to just establish it and then everyone gets an answer.

1:58:46 Gorgug: Such a Riz answer.

1:58:47 Riz: Really, I think I have a lot of friends sometimes but then everyone's mean to me. (quiet piano music)

1:58:54 Brennan: We are going to cut from here. You are in a... Go ahead and give me another Constitution saving throw. Boggy can give you help on this one as well.

1:59:12 Siobhan: Yeah, 16.

1:59:14 Brennan: You resist the final round of the spell. It does not affect you. You stand here surrounded by these wizards and your father. You see that the conjurer ones, this is a little bit beefier, light mage armor dismisses the air elemental and just walks away. The sort of goth looking one, sort of all in raven, smiles at you, nods, and walks away. You're in a beautiful courtyard. Smooth rounded marble flagstones are set into the garden. Looks very a zen meditative type of place. Your father remains and the white gowned elf, she looks at you and says,

2:00:03 Kir: Hello, I'm Kir. It's a pleasure to meet you. You did a very noble thing. You saved your friends' lives.

2:00:11 Adaine: Don't give me that. You forced me to. I had no choice.

2:00:16 Kir: You did have a choice. You chose what I think to be the more noble opportunity.

2:00:21 Adaine: I'm not having this conversation.

2:00:23 Siobhan: I Misty Step out of the room.

2:00:25 Brennan: The garden is quite large, and your father Dispels the Misty Step.

2:00:28 Siobhan: Great, I cast Greater Invisibility on myself.

2:00:32 Brennan: You see that Kir is under the effect of a True Sight spell, and on a natural 18, Dispels your Greater Invisibility.

2:00:37 Siobhan: God damn it.

2:00:42 Brennan: She looks at you and says,

2:00:45 Siobhan: (looking through her spell cards) I'm not done!

2:00:46 Brennan: She says,

2:00:46 Kir: I assure you Adaine, we can have this duel if you wish, but there are more of us, and we will tire long after you have. If you wish to have an adversarial relationship I can oblige. You made a prediction at the beginning of the fight. Do you remember what it was?

2:01:10 Siobhan: I'm just not gonna speak to them.

2:01:13 Brennan: She smiles and says,

2:01:17 Kir: I mentioned to our superiors that we were collecting the Elven Oracle to bring her home. You made a prediction. You said I don't think so. Must not be a very good Oracle.

2:01:32 Siobhan: I cast Misty Step again. (laughter)

2:01:37 Brennan: You get hit with a Counterspell. You see that a number of Elven advisors step out from around you.

2:01:43 Zac: Counterspell, counterspell, counterspell, counterspell. (laughs)

2:01:49 Brennan: Your father looks at you and says,

2:01:53 Angwyn: Adaine, this is unbecoming. You're behaving rashly and irrationally. Would you like to know how your friends are doing?

2:02:03 Brennan: See Kir holds the hand up to her head. She goes,

2:02:08 Kir: (eyes closed) Your friends yet live on the pirate island of Leviathan. You've done the right thing by saving them. (eyes open) Come. There is a reason we have called you here. We need not be enemies. Siobhan just shakes her head.

2:02:26 Brennan: You see she looks up at your father and says,

2:02:33 Kir: Perhaps, Mr. Abernant, it would be better for you to explain.

2:02:39 Brennan: You see that she walks away. Your father turns to you.

2:02:45 Adaine: You abandoned me. Why would I listen to anything that you have to say? You treated me like garbage my entire childhood and then you left me behind like trash. You're not my father. You've never been my father, and I will not listen to anything that you say.

2:03:08 Angwyn: Adaine, I can’t control your destiny. Nor what choices you make. You have always been obstinate and fixed in your ways. Adaine puts her fingers in her ears and sings over him to drown him out, like Gorgug.

2:03:27 Brennan: He uses telepathy and speaks into your mind.

2:03:28 Siobhan: Damn it!

2:03:29 Brennan: And goes, he just says,

2:03:34 Angwyn: Fallinel will find a way to have a relationship with the Elven Oracle. Do you understand the implications of what I'm saying?

2:03:44 Adaine: I've already told you. I'm not the Elven Oracle.

2:03:48 Angwyn: You can believe as you wish. However, if you are not the Elven Oracle, who will cooperate, the state of Fallinel is of the belief that it will find an Elven Oracle who will and there is only one way to create a new Elven Oracle.

2:04:08 Adaine: Yes, you have to kill me. Very fatherly.

2:04:13 Angwyn: I don't wish for any of this.

2:04:15 Adaine: Yes, you do. I've always been an inconvenience for you, and let me tell you, I will continue to be an inconvenience to you, until the moment that I am dead and I will haunt you. I will come back as a ghost. I know it can happen, because my friend is one, and I will follow you around,

2:04:39 Angwyn: (deep sigh) Oh, my daughter,

2:04:40 Adaine: (holds out a hand to stop him) Because my unfinished business is to annoy you forever, forever, and it will never end. That unfinished business will remain unfinished because there is no level of an annoyance to you that will be satisfying to the ghost of me.

2:04:56 Angwyn: (sighs) This is extremely expected. Very well, Adaine. Feel free to continue throwing this tantrum. If you would like food, or to know where you will be accommodated, you need only ask.

2:05:15 Brennan: And he turns and begins to walk out of the courtyard.

2:05:19 Siobhan: Is anybody looking right now? Like a lot of people?

2:05:23 Brennan: There are high walls around the courtyard and there's a high tower as well. You see the sort of conjurer elf who is a little bit lightly armored. Walks over. He's got thick long braided red hair. He walks over to you and says,

2:05:46 Conjurer: (deep voice) Ms. Abernant, it is—

2:05:48 Siobhan: I lie down on the floor. Face down.

2:05:52 Conjurer: I was going to offer to get you some food or something to drink. Siobhan shakes her head.

2:05:58 Murph: Just planking.

2:06:00 Brennan: You see. He looks and says,

2:06:04 Conjurer: All right. Very well. It seems we will have to do this the hard way.

2:06:13 Brennan: Manacles spring from his hands. He begins to lead you away from here up into the tower. Go ahead and give me a Perception check if you'd be so kind.

2:06:23 Siobhan: Can Boggy give me the help action?

2:06:27 Brennan: Yes, Boggy can give you the help action.

2:06:30 Siobhan: Great. That is a 23.

2:06:37 Brennan: You look into a room for a moment and you see that there is a large beautiful Elven chamber. Silver and marble, sort of ambient light glowing on the white stone. You see that there is a, almost like glass orb floating. Within that orb, which is slightly turning, you see your sister. (cymbal roll in the music) She is not floating within it. Instead, you see that she is crawling on her hands and knees, as the orb slowly turns. She makes… Let's see if she notices you. She doesn't. With the 23, you immediately see that... Elves don't need to sleep, so it wouldn't be called sleep deprivation but there are thick bags under her eyes and it looks like in the many months, almost a year since you last saw her she has not been allowed to trance, and is crawling in this ever turning orb.

2:07:53 Adaine: Here we are again! Here we are again!

2:07:58 Brennan: You are brought into a room. Shortly thereafter, as you are sat down, Kir comes back in and Angwyn sits down next to her.

2:08:12 Siobhan: I'm fully under the blankets. There's truly nothing else I can do.

2:08:18 Brennan: No, you go under the blankets. Go ahead and make a Wisdom save for me.

2:08:27 Siobhan: 11. Is this a charm?

2:08:31 Brennan: No, this is the Detect Thoughts spell. Siobhan looks through her spell cards.

2:08:43 Brennan: Anything you can do?

2:08:45 Siobhan: I mean I can Ray of Frost them.

2:08:49 Brennan: Yeah. I mean like—

2:08:51 Siobhan: I guess. No, there's nothing I can do. Can Boggy give me advantage? It's a psychic thing. I feel like that doesn't make any logistical sense for a frog to help me stop that.

2:09:04 Brennan: Yeah, I don’t think so. You see that Kir just very politely says,

2:09:12 Kir: When is the last time you saw your mother? Adaine shrugs.

2:09:17 Brennan: And though you do not respond verbally, your thoughts. The questions prompt your thoughts, even in the moment before you can shut them down again, and a series of questions is posed to you that are gleaned by the Elven maiden who sits at the foot of your bed. Go ahead and give me another Perception check.

2:09:42 Siobhan: With Boggy's help?

2:09:43 Brennan: Sure.

2:09:47 Siobhan: (sighs) 22.

2:09:54 Brennan: You look out and notice your position and see the stars outside of your window, and can kind of tell where you are on the coast of Fallinel. As you do so, the final question is posed to you,

2:10:15 Kir: And do you intend to cooperate or will you be as problematic as we anticipate you might?

2:10:24 Brennan: And I just need Adaine's honest first response to that emotionally.

2:10:27 Adaine: What possible advantage to me or my friends can helping you give me?

2:10:33 Brennan: You see she says,

2:10:33 Kir: Very well. Move the prisoner to one of the orb rooms, and she.

2:10:43 Siobhan: I used all of my spells.

2:10:45 Emily: Do you have any Sending left?

2:10:47 Siobhan: No.

2:10:50 Brennan: She stands and moves away with you. We're gonna go back to Leviathan.

2:11:02 Emily: Can't wait to save Adaine!

2:11:04 Lou: We're gonna do it but together!

2:11:08 Brennan: Wonderful. So you see that Ayda looks at all of you here. Do you guys stay here at the Row and the Ruction or do you go elsewhere?

2:11:18 Emily: I wanna get this crown away from this place.

2:11:22 Murph: Yeah, we're just taking the crown with us, I think. I think we find Gilear and then we try to leave right away.

2:11:26 Emily: Yeah, I think,

2:11:26 Fig: Ayda. We need to get to Fallinel.

2:11:30 Kristen: The crown of the Nightmare King has passed through here, and now we have another crown? I don't know if this is another like, hey that's a forest situation, but can we check this crown, and see if there's anything interesting about it?

2:11:44 Emily: Yeah.

2:11:44 Brennan: Sure, go for it. Give me whatever check you wanna get.

2:11:48 Ally: Don't have to Identify or anything.

2:11:49 Murph: I'll do Investigate. Could somebody help me?

2:11:51 Ally: Yeah, I'll help you.

2:11:52 Emily: Yeah, I guess I'll give you a help.

2:11:53 Murph: Sweet. That is 27.

2:11:57 Brennan: Cool. This is a separate crown from the crown of the Nightmare King.

2:12:01 Fig: But I think if you know, we might as well get some destruction of crowns under our belt. For minor ones before we have to destroy the regular Nightmare Crown.

2:12:10 Siobhan: You should save it. Maybe it's cool.

2:12:13 Fig: I'm gonna save it, until we find a big volcano or something.

2:12:17 Riz: Fabian, what would Bill do?

2:12:20 Gorgug: Put it on a head.

2:12:22 Fabian: Yeah, he would put it on.

2:12:25 Brennan: Cathilda looks.

2:12:26 Riz: There's James's body.

2:12:28 Fig: Isn't that? Isn't what your dad wanted was for there to be no king?

2:12:34 Riz: Also what do you wanna do Fabian?

2:12:40 Fabian: I'd like to do… I don’t know, Cathilda, what do you think is best?

2:12:48 Cathilda: (sighs) Master Fabian, I'm sure I don't know. I think that Captain James is dead. If you wish to return the crown to the Pirate King's head in Gibbety Square, I'm sure that your father's legacy and memory would... There's not many as brash as Captain James was.

2:13:13 Fig: Yeah, I'll also do that if you want to take the crown for that.

2:13:17 Fabian: Yeah, let's put it back on the head where Papa left it.

2:13:20 Fig: You do the honors. You put this star on the Christmas tree.

2:13:25 Lou: Okay. I'd like to walk up to the head in Gibbety Square.

2:13:32 Brennan: You guys head over to Gibbety Square. You're there with your hirelings. The van is a little bit banged up. Gilear.

2:13:41 Gorgug: Gilear, what?

2:13:43 Gilear: I ran out to get in the van to go and get Garthy O'Brien, but what happened was I wanted to back out so I looked around, but I hadn't shifted into reverse.

2:13:55 Fig: Trying to do a K-turn?

2:13:58 Gorgug: I thought I was in reverse.

2:14:02 Brennan: The van goes,

2:14:02 Van: Man, I told you you were not in reverse. I don't wanna add insult to injury.

2:14:10 Riz: So you basically had like a back-up cam and you still messed up the K-turn.

2:14:15 Gilear: Normally, I drive an automatic.

2:14:20 Riz: It's not an automatic?

2:14:21 Gilear: The van is also automatic, but it's slightly. My one, the shift. This one's one of these, and mine in my other.

2:14:30 Gorgug: Okay, no worries. No worries.

2:14:31 Gilear: I'm so sorry.

2:14:32 Gorgug: It's fine.

2:14:33 Fig: You have a part yet to play.

2:14:36 Gorgug: It's totally fine. Yeah we don't have to. It's Gilear. It's fine.

2:14:44 Fabian: It's a weird day.

2:14:48 Gilear: Yeah, I went unconscious.

2:14:49 Brennan: You see that Ayda looks at him and says,

2:14:51 Ayda: You're not visibly injured anywhere that I can see.

2:14:54 Brennan: You see he says,

2:14:54 Gilear: No, I did remember to buckle my seatbelt but the airbag went off and I breathed some of it in and then I couldn't get it out so I just suffocated a bit. (sigh)

2:15:07 Gorgug: I appreciate you giving it a shot.

2:15:10 Gilear: Okay. I actually did try my best.

2:15:17 Fig: You know what though? If you try your best every time, your best is gonna keep getting better.

2:15:21 Gilear: That has not been my experience.

2:15:24 Riz: It should be.

2:15:26 Fig: Yeah, I was.

2:15:28 Gilear: My best tends to decrease in value with each passing day of my immortal life.

2:15:33 Emily: I give him my last Bardic Inspiration.

2:15:37 Gilear: Thank you, daughter. Farewell, I shall go into the back of the van, if anyone needs me, I will be surprised.

2:15:53 Brennan: You see Tracker looks around and says,

2:15:56 Tracker: (sighs) Well, it's good. It's good that Adaine... It sucks about Adaine, but no one died, and we did save Leviathan. So that's good.

2:16:10 Fig: Maybe. We don't know what's happening with Adaine. We don't know what they want to do with her.

2:16:13 Tracker: Well they wanted her alive. They did a lot of work to get her alive.

2:16:17 Riz: Yeah, but who knows what they're gonna make her do now.

2:16:21 Fig: Yeah, exactly. Hook her up to something. Trap her in a crystal, that would be the second person in my life trapped in a frickin' stone.

2:16:29 Kristen: Ayda, you're able to get us to Fallinel, you think?

2:16:33 Ayda: Yes.

2:16:33 Kristen: Great.

2:16:34 Ayda: I believe so.

2:16:34 Kristen: That's awesome.

2:16:37 Fig: I'm ready to go now. I'm packed.

2:16:39 Riz: Let’s get this head up on the wall and then—

2:16:41 Kristen: Should we go in the morning? Should we just sleep and then?

2:16:43 Riz: No, we need to go now.

2:16:44 Fig: I wanna go now so I can wander around Messaging and see if I can make contact with Adaine.

2:16:48 Riz: Yeah, Adaine sacrificed herself, we have to—

2:16:50 Kristen: (the video’s audio briefly cuts out here) I'm, pretty much took a rest, next to some ice cream the whole time. I can do a bunch of healing.

2:17:01 Zac: Can I take Fabian aside?

2:17:03 Brennan: Sure. I'm gonna say that you guys have to go back to your rooms at the Gold Gardens. Garthy O'Brian, Ayda Aguefort, and Jamina Joy all meet up there to discuss, because with the Ramble burnt, the city's in a bit of chaos, but they're also going to load you guys up with provisions and stuff in the van to go to Fallinel. As you guys all meet up there. Yeah, you go ahead and take Fabian aside.

2:17:35 Gorgug: Hey Fabian.

2:17:36 Fabian: (sadly) Yes, Gorgug.

2:17:37 Gorgug: I know it would have been really cool if you'd crossbowed him in the face and then cut his head off or something, but that didn't happen, and sometimes things aren't as clean as you want them to be, but when that happens, your friends were there to back you up, and we fucking got him.

2:18:01 Fabian: You guys wrecked house. For sure.

2:18:03 Gorgug: But now. Adaine, needs our help, and we need to be there for her, so I'm just gonna need you to buck up dude. It's not about you anymore. Not trying to be too harsh, but we have to do this.

2:18:23 Fabian: Yeah, okay.

2:18:24 Zac: Take his sword from his thing and stab it in the ground.

2:18:28 Fabian: You've gotta stop doing that.

2:18:31 Gorgug: Is that dulling the blade?

2:18:32 Fabian: One, yes. Two, I don't know what the message is other than that my sword's in front of me. Yeah, I'll buck up. Just stop.

2:18:42 Gorgug: Okay.

2:18:43 Fabian: Okay.

2:18:45 Brennan: You see Tracker looks at you sort of getting things ready. She says,

2:18:53 Tracker: I'm so sorry I vanished like that.

2:18:55 Kristen: Don't worry about it.

2:18:57 Tracker: Were you hurt? You almost got killed.

2:18:58 Kristen: I did almost get killed. I need a bunch of heals. We can do them on the way.

2:19:01 Brennan: She's like,

2:19:01 Tracker: I'll take care of it.

2:19:04 Brennan: She says,

2:19:04 Tracker: Do you want me to go? We've got a minute. Do you want me to go heal you upstairs?

2:19:09 Kristen: Absolutely yeah, We should do this.

2:19:11 Lou: Oh my—

2:19:13 Fig: (yelling) Adaine is gone! How could you think about this?

2:19:18 Ally: We are pounding.

2:19:20 Riz: People grieve in different ways.

2:19:23 Emily: I listen with a mixture of like, anger that you're having so much fun at this time but also a curiosity like, what was that? Wow.

2:19:30 Ally: Someone dropped a bowling ball.

2:19:34 Brennan: Cool. You guys come back downstairs.

2:19:41 Ally: Can I pull Fabian aside really quick too and be like,

2:19:44 Kristen: Yeah Fabian I'm sure there's a lot going on, but.

2:19:47 Fabian: A lot of one on one's going on.

2:19:49 Kristen: Yeah, man I know.

2:19:52 Riz: From back there, do you wanna double up, or?

2:19:55 Kristen: Yeah. I went through a huge nothing is true that I thought was true moment and it sucked, and I just felt a little bit weak and confused every single day until I didn't and there's no way to rush it so I just want to let you know you can keep doing exactly what you need and I got your back. We're a big party and I'm sorry that I said you were gonna be the new Gilear. I would never say something that mean, usually.

2:20:24 Fabian: It was pretty harsh.

2:20:25 Kristen: It was so harsh and I've been thinking about it nonstop and I just wanna tell you, I take it back.

2:20:29 Fabian: I won't lie. There was a moment in which I truly was the new Gilear. I saw myself.

2:20:33 Kristen: Don't say that about yourself! You are nothing like Gilear!

2:20:37 Emily: Can Gilear hear this? Can I give him—

2:20:38 Brennan: Gilear is standing just five feet away eating yogurt.

2:20:42 Emily: Can I Bestow Curse and Deafen him, so he doesn’t have to hear this?

2:20:47 Brennan: Hold on one second. You cast it in the sanctum of the Gold Gardens and you see that something. (buzzing) Does a little gentle bubble of silence around him. He goes,

2:21:01 Gilear: (sighs) That's better.

2:21:05 Zac: Could he have used his Bardic to try to resist?

2:21:10 Brennan: Kristen, after you have a meaningful heart to heart you see Gilear comes over to you Fabian.

2:21:15 Gilear: Hello Fabian.

2:21:16 Fabian: Hi.

2:21:17 Gilear: I wanted to pull you aside for a minute.

2:21:21 Fabian: It feels right. It seems to be the moment.

2:21:27 Gilear: Look, I know what you're going through and on my way to the van, I was accosted by a man, who said that he was going to kill me unless I gave him 250 gold pieces. Can I borrow 250 gold pieces?

2:21:50 Fabian: Sorry, is this a metaphor, or is this some way greater representative of my situation? Do I need to buck up and be 250 gold pieces worth of—

2:22:06 Gilear: You need to shut the fuck up because I'm a dead man unless I get 250 gold pieces.

2:22:12 Fabian: Oh Gilear. Where is this energy coming from?

2:22:15 Gilear: Look, you're down here with me now. All right, you're rich. I'm not. Help me. Please help me.

2:22:24 Fabian: All right. Don't tell anybody.

2:22:27 Gilear: I might tell people.

2:22:27 Fabian: Here's 250 gold pieces.

2:22:31 Gilear: Thank God, oh God!

2:22:33 Emily: I see this from afar and I nod thinking, Gilear, he's everyone's father when they need him.

2:22:39 Gilear: All right, what's up with you? Is something happening?

2:22:43 Fabian: Can we table this?

2:22:47 Gilear: Yes, certainly. I'm going to go take care of this.

2:22:49 Brennan: And he walks off. You guys are gathered around. Jamina looks over and says,

2:22:55 Jamina: As boatswain of Leviathan. I extend thanks to you. The prow of the Crimson Claw will make good repairs in this city. You are welcome here, whensoever you wish to return.

2:23:10 Fig: Can we get a coin or something so that next time we show up here they don't impound our car?

2:23:14 Jamina: It'll be me. I won'timpound it.

2:23:18 Brennan: You see she walks away. Garthy looks at you, and they say,

2:23:22 Garthy: (London accent, calm) All right loveys. We've made provisions as we can. I'm sorry that your friend did something so noble that it has now put her in harm's way. Listen. Where is it you're trying to go, because Fallinel is a country. It's enormous. Where are you trying to go within it?

2:23:43 Fig: Is there a prison in Fallinel? We were originally gonna try to break her sister out of prison.

2:23:48 Fabian: I have the dossier from where Aelwyn is meant to be.

2:23:53 Kristen: Let's go there.

2:23:57 Fig: We'll camp outside. We don't need to go directly inside the prison.

2:24:03 Brennan: You see that, you remember the name, The tower is Calethriel Tower.

2:24:08 Fabian: Yeah. Calethriel Tower.

2:24:12 Brennan: Garthy goes and you see that they get a bunch of provisions together. Ayda looks on her maps.

2:24:19 Ayda: Calethriel Tower. I will move us away from there.

2:24:22 Fig: Can you teleport us to the roof?

2:24:24 Brennan: You see that she looks over at Garthy. Garthy looks and says,

2:24:27 Garthy: Lovey, I'm sorry. That's a maximum security elven tower. They're certainly gonna anticipate Teleportation. If you were to do that, what they would probably do is delay you by 30 seconds. Cast a bunch of concentration spells and you'd be welcome to a crowd of elementals if you arrived.

2:24:44 Brennan: Garthy looks and they say,

2:24:48 Garthy: (looking at the map) There are some nearby provinces around here. There is something from the Court of Stars. Some wild gaming land and the land of the Lomenelda.

2:25:01 Brennan: As they say, Lomenelda, that is your mother's family.

2:25:09 Fabian: Hey, the Lomenelda. That's actually my mama's, her family. I guess I theoretically I have friends there in that they are my family. I just go there and use it as a base of operations.

2:25:31 Fig: Yeah, that sounds great.

2:25:33 Ayda: Very well. Will I be welcome there? Or will people be rude and scared?

2:25:38 Fig: If they're rude we'll set them straight.

2:25:40 Gorgug: They're gonna be rude and scared of all of us.

2:25:41 Riz: They’re gonna be rude to us, I think.

2:25:43 Ayda: Why?

2:25:44 Fig: Well because we're adventurers.

2:25:46 Ayda: Ah.

2:25:47 Fabian: And we have a big van, and nobody knows what a van is.

2:25:50 Fig: We're also pretty rude ourselves.

2:25:53 Brennan: You see that she begins to create this fiery orange rune of teleportation circles to move you guys. As she does so, you see Garthy looks out at the rest of you and says,

2:26:06 Garthy: (sighs) Loveys, I'm sorry that your time in Leviathan has to be cut short, but I hope that you find your friend. Get her back right quick. Come back any time, yeah? You're always welcome.

2:26:20 Brennan: You guys, the runes begins to glow around you.

2:26:24 Ally: Can I watch how Sandra Lynn says bye to them?

2:26:26 Emily: (laughing uncomfortably) I close my eyes.

2:26:28 Brennan: Yes, go ahead. You see that Sandra Lynn. You see Garthy looks at Sandra Lynn, kind of gives a... They give like a weird half knowing nod. It's not. Garthy's not a very judgemental person but it's kind of like (Garthy voice) lovey, you're a fuckin' mess. (normal voice) And I'm gonna make some Insight checks. Gilear looks at the look between Sandra Lynn and Garthy, furrows his eyebrows. Tracker looks and notices something. She turns to you and says,

2:27:08 Tracker: What's that about?

2:27:11 Kristen: We can talk.

2:27:13 Tracker: What's up?

2:27:14 Kristen: There's a lot going on there, but I'm gonna wait until we have a little bit more down time to talk.

2:27:21 Tracker: We just fucked upstairs.

2:27:21 Kristen: I know. It was on the tip of my tongue.

2:27:26 Tracker: It specifically wasn't.

2:27:28 Lou: Oh my— (crosstalk) Hot shots! (dancing)

2:27:29 Brennan: That's all for this week of "Dimension 20 Live!" (all laughing and talking loudly)

2:27:38 Ally: Merry Christmas! And a happy holiday.
