00:00:34: I was doing it Alright

00:00:42: And a second of silence now.

00:00:45: All right, I have story time for you guys... I don't have the power or the infamy of a Timmy Tail but it's pretty good story today.

00:01:08: So we were at a craft fair recently

00:01:15: and

00:01:16: It was a lot of fun seeing a bunch of grandmas making all sorts of fun stuff.

00:01:20: And while I was there, uh...I saw a guy that he had a daughter close to my daughters age and He had a Pikmin shirt on.

00:01:26: So we instantly connected because it's like oh It's a sweet shirt!

00:01:28: There is a button-up dresser but it has a Pikmins pattern right?

00:01:34: We started talking about gaming.

00:01:35: then he mentioned My Shirt and I was wearing a Silent Planet shirt.

00:01:39: so we start talk about music.

00:01:40: Then he knew what gent music was Like the really low end guitar And so we sort of connected on like a whole bunch of stuff, started talking about D&D.

00:01:50: We started to talk about all different video games and he liked the fact that I had a Dark Souls tattoo.

00:01:55: it was like well dude this is awesome!

00:01:57: Like were totally connecting...and then i got separated because we have kids you know?

00:02:02: Stuff....And later uh..I find him again and I say hey dude let me get your own Instagram so we can connect later and stuff.

00:02:10: He said yeah sure So he posted his instagram.

00:02:14: I tell him what to put in.

00:02:15: And he looks at me and goes, are you also Jake?

00:02:19: That was like...

00:02:20: What?!

00:02:23: His name is also Jake.

00:02:29: Wow!

00:02:29: There can only be one.

00:02:31: Yeah

00:02:35: it's so funny that we found out we were even closer than that.

00:02:43: They travel in herds.

00:02:50: It was awesome.

00:02:51: and so like we got our wives to meet, it was really funny when he complimented my shirt.

00:02:58: And then his wife goes did you tell him I bought a for-you?

00:03:02: Yes He made sure.

00:03:06: give credit because that is an awesome shirt.

00:03:11: But yeah, it was like one of those things that you meet somebody who is just so on your level and then get each other.

00:03:18: You know the scene from Step Brothers?

00:03:21: Do we become best

00:03:21: friends?!

00:03:25: That's what I felt like!

00:03:25: It was amazing...it was so funny.

00:03:38: maybe like a reverse tale of, you know the slow simmer

00:03:42: of

00:03:43: friendship.

00:03:44: So I've been going to this gym for awhile now and y'all know sometimes i teach class when teachers sleep in or they have some family emergency which did do that again recently.

00:03:57: uh-huh You stepped up again you hero.

00:04:01: But

00:04:01: there have been like several folks that I've kind of, you know half befriended over the time.

00:04:09: And it's not always.

00:04:11: oh they have a cool shirt on and we're best friends forever.

00:04:14: It's cool.

00:04:14: just be like.

00:04:15: hey!

00:04:15: You are here again Just getting to know people.

00:04:19: One of the coolest people i think their gotten to know is The person who got the Maryland State Teacher Of The Year award.

00:04:32: That was really cool.

00:04:33: OK, yeah that's quite prestigious.

00:04:35: Yeah

00:04:36: they were like look at all these pictures I took with politicians and news reporters And then i got to go some space camp for free.

00:04:47: You just learned about space stuff and did training stuff.

00:04:54: So

00:04:55: it might have a terrible paying job and teachers deserve The perks of being the best in the whole state.

00:05:05: have their joys.

00:05:07: Yeah,

00:05:07: you literally had to be the best there ever was and then it's worth

00:05:11: it.

00:05:11: And then finally get the recognition?

00:05:13: Exactly!

00:05:15: But not the pay.

00:05:15: No no let's not be crazy

00:05:18: That is insane.

00:05:21: You're paid in exposure.

00:05:23: basically at that point

00:05:25: They are awesome.

00:05:27: If we look up the Maryland State Teacher of the Year.

00:05:30: I think they might have an Instagram or something.

00:05:32: Give them a follow, tell them i sent you but on a creepy way and

00:05:39: uh yeah.

00:05:43: And if your person that dictates how much they get paid pay more.

00:05:47: Yeah there ya

00:05:48: go!

00:05:48: If you're listening just so happen to be in charge of

00:05:52: the

00:05:52: Maryland budget for How Much Teachers Get Paid Or You Negotiate With The Teacher's Union.

00:05:57: Just do more give em' more.

00:05:59: Yeah, that'd be great.

00:06:00: Thanks.

00:06:01: Okay thanks bye.

00:06:04: We did have a. this has been a PSA about the DPS.

00:06:07: Can you imagine if like teachers just got back and we're like You know what?

00:06:11: We weren't gonna pay teachers more but then

00:06:13: we listened to

00:06:14: dragonfrog

00:06:15: party.

00:06:17: They were like wow!

00:06:18: All teachers get a ten thousand dollar increase in pay because

00:06:24: of

00:06:25: Dragon Punch Drive.

00:06:27: I mean, that would forever justify anything we have said on this

00:06:32: podcast ever.

00:06:32: Anything for the past seven years?

00:06:35: That would justify all of it.

00:06:36: It's

00:06:37: like worth...

00:06:40: We did it for you!

00:06:43: We didn't know who were doing-.

00:06:44: The magic was that teachers raised us that and got along our way.

00:06:46: We've

00:06:49: gotten to teacher making money before we made a dime.

00:06:57: Imagine getting like teachers junior approved on our podcast.

00:07:02: That'd be the weirdest piece of promotional material we could possibly have.

00:07:06: Like oh no, yeah it's real.

00:07:07: The teacher loves us!

00:07:10: That would

00:07:10: bring in literally dozens

00:07:12: Dozens?

00:07:17: Dozens

00:07:18: of teachers not listening to our show while they grade

00:07:23: All the parents who listen to the episodes with their kids for our list of the first episode with your kid then immediately shut it off.

00:07:29: like why did that teacher support

00:07:31: this?

00:07:31: Think

00:07:32: think of all the teachers.

00:07:33: I would listen into our podcast and think wow, I think maybe half them are literate.

00:07:48: So just things.

00:07:49: they look you get somebody delayed.

00:07:51: That's like on your side in your leg.

00:07:53: I don't really know if i want your support, to be honest.

00:07:56: Ouch!

00:07:57: Too bad you're getting

00:07:59: it.

00:07:59: You don't have a choice

00:08:03: All right?

00:08:05: Have any of y'guys made other friends besides us?

00:08:09: No...I dont go out.

00:08:14: Yeah Oh It Depends My God.

00:08:17: Go To A Festival Or Something.

00:08:20: I'll Just See Someone In A Cool Costume And Be Like.

00:08:23: I like it, how did you do it?

00:08:24: And then i would make so many different weird friends that

00:08:26: way.

00:08:27: That is a very

00:08:28: parkway of making friends!

00:08:30: Yeah...I'm like- I want to know how he did that.

00:08:32: tell me.

00:08:33: and they're like oh follow this.

00:08:34: im like awesome.

00:08:36: ill try at some point but thats how its done.

00:08:40: Thats How Im Trying To Sculpt Things Actually Right Now.

00:08:44: Yeah Whenever Like Im In Public And Somebody Is Like Hey You Should Check Out My Instagram Page.

00:08:48: Im Like Haha Im Not Gonna Do That.

00:08:53: it's so funny that like I think maybe we're just you know which don't have time for them anymore.

00:08:58: but is this lake the number of friends and I met through light?

00:09:01: uh... online games or that i had meant to rule a cons like all though all the times on what to look on a cat's car like.

00:09:08: I'm at like.

00:09:09: a lot of friends are there um... and so now if you know like and we still keep in touch with those they may Christmas see.

00:09:15: no like we text each other and it's like We would drop it anything to like.

00:09:20: go hang out if we weren't states away, but just now I'm kind of know that guy at the grocery store sometimes.

00:09:30: Look wistfully too and he's gone.

00:09:36: He didn't get the cucumber today!

00:09:40: I don't know.

00:09:41: it probably makes me like a bad person, but the last thing i want when i go out doing groceries or errands to see someone.

00:09:46: I kind of no Like.

00:09:48: oh shit i don't have time He doesn't see me.

00:09:52: So that's why you ignore me everytime.

00:09:54: im like John!

00:09:54: John

00:09:55: its me!

00:09:55: You're gonna dive into the bushes.

00:09:57: Oh fuck.

00:09:57: God damnit.

00:10:00: John I got your more plants.

00:10:01: hold on.

00:10:04: I Don't need anyone.

00:10:04: native shrubs.

00:10:08: My biggest thing is like, I don't wanna have to ask them what their name is.

00:10:11: Cause it's like...I know I'm supposed to know your name cause i know you but that why I ignore people in public?

00:10:17: because im like..i know the person and can't remember who they're first names are.

00:10:20: And Im not gonna go ask so Im just going this side of store.

00:10:24: Kelly's

00:10:24: brain was too full with pathfinder rules for remembering

00:10:26: names.

00:10:28: This time of year its all fantasy football.

00:10:30: my best friends are all

00:10:31: fans of football

00:10:32: team.

00:10:33: I Know Their Injuries.

00:10:34: I Know They Are Personal Problems.

00:10:37: I'm checking in on them every day, making sure they're going to be there for me.

00:10:44: Do you have a swifty level of obsession with the players?

00:10:49: It seems that your fantasy team... Hey!

00:10:51: I work really hard to come into eighth place every single year.

00:10:55: so

00:10:57: it's just

00:10:58: love of the game and this is the grind.

00:11:00: You know..I root for ya everytime.

00:11:03: I don't.

00:11:03: if its been helping maybe i should stop.

00:11:06: I got mixed messages on that you should draft this person and i drafted him twice, kind of.

00:11:14: Well tell ya what don't listen to people who's in the same league with you when it comes to drafting people.

00:11:19: All im saying

00:11:20: is they abbreviate their first name then usually spell out last names.

00:11:24: so i just drafted two j reads okay?

00:11:31: Yeah its confusing because... And then you drafted the one I expected you to.

00:11:38: Then, you searched a different read and also drafted that person for some reason thinking that I wanted you to draft both of them?

00:11:47: It was very confusing!

00:11:49: You gave him a clue when he casted it away...

00:11:51: I don't even know if The Person He Drafted is an active NFL player.

00:11:55: I've never heard of Them in my entire life.

00:11:58: Maybe this is his break up.

00:11:59: maybe Tim's gonna win but...

00:12:01: Nah, I already dropped Him.

00:12:04: Well, hopefully you guys aren't dropping this deal.

00:12:06: You made with King

00:12:07: Harald

00:12:10: Who was the ghost wizard king of

00:12:13: Ghost

00:12:14: Wizard.

00:12:14: the

00:12:15: undead city

00:12:16: is a dwarf too okay?

00:12:19: Dwarf

00:12:19: ghost and dead dwarf wizard king Of The Haunted City Osaka rock that I did get it all correct i think.

00:12:29: Pretty sure.

00:12:29: he's in a metal band

00:12:30: name.

00:12:32: I think we were in the process of about to

00:12:34: steal

00:12:35: his, uh...

00:12:35: Steal a spellbook.

00:12:37: Oh yeah!

00:12:37: Yeah i wasn't gonna steal that fucking thing.

00:12:39: Alright

00:12:42: so he rolled me a stealth check and then it's just him.

00:12:45: like creeping closer He does the things whenever her roll looks away.

00:12:49: he takes another step And after three steps she says are

00:12:55: you moving toward me?

00:12:58: I'm watching solo leveling for first time.

00:13:00: there is this one part where They're trapped in the dungeon with a spell casting boss and like The party leader like charges him into this like valiant effort to try to kill them before they all die And he just like uses telekinesis and smashes him into the ceiling of the floor like twenty times Before the main character saves it.

00:13:19: That's what I feel Like would probably happen if we tried to do that.

00:13:22: What

00:13:26: was the big telekinetic

00:13:27: maneuver?

00:13:28: Yeah maneuvers are one you can shove everything with.

00:13:30: yeah, God that's funny.

00:13:32: I have heard a lot of people say that's a good anime.

00:13:34: Um, I just don't watch much TV anymore.

00:13:36: So it

00:13:37: is not something like super special about it.

00:13:39: It's just fun and satisfying.

00:13:40: Oh yeah Yeah exactly

00:13:43: you watch it for the pretty colors in fights.

00:13:45: That's

00:13:46: all i care about.

00:13:47: sometimes i just want to mindlessly Watch something really impressive to watch.

00:13:50: so um But anyway uh herall had said that you guys Have two general approaches To subverting some Of The power that the Scarlet Triad and the Shumeriks

00:14:05: have

00:14:06: in this area.

00:14:07: He had said you could go to a place called the Haunted Halls, which is where The Bound are And You Could Remove them or you can remove the danger of Them In your attack on the scarlet triad by wearing the regalia Of the city itself.

00:14:30: You had to go there because unfortunately he didn't have any but the place that it was.

00:14:33: He didn't want to go.

00:14:35: Now here's a thing is at like.

00:14:37: you guys were like Maybe that, but also taking on The Starved I think as what they recall which has all the ghouls They have actually just given loyalty To the scarlet triad and the shimmer eggs.

00:14:52: They are just working directly with them the boundaries sort of in.

00:14:57: They don't have any allegiances to anyone, but the Starved themselves are just like no.

00:15:01: No we worship power and that's what the Scarlet Triad El Sera and the Schumeriks Have.

00:15:08: And so you guys decided maybe we should go in That direction?

00:15:10: Maybe We Should Go with that since that is a direct threat To Us.

00:15:16: And So Haral he.

00:15:18: they tell You Sanctum of The Starved Is What He Calls it And so he mentions that while they're not a completely organized group, sort of cutting off the head-of-the-snake as it were would completely dismantle any organization that they do have and put them under the allegiance to him again.

00:15:42: So if you guys are going in that direction then he tells you where that is... ...and just says that

00:15:49: If You Are Going That Direction

00:15:51: In A Sort Of Southeast

00:15:54: I Cannot Guarantee And he's safety on the streets, so please Walk with caution But you may rest here and you will be safe While your in my

00:16:11: walls any points to his His Cathedral of a ever building that is in

00:16:21: Sandor will speak up.

00:16:25: At The risk of great insult I would ask for one more boom if you would be willing to hear my plea,

00:16:34: Your Highness.

00:16:37: We are working together or we're not?

00:16:42: And then he points at his spellbook.

00:16:45: It would aid us greatly If I could at least take a look At your Droom

00:16:49: War.

00:16:52: Oh!

00:16:53: You wish to see the ancient magics that i worked

00:16:55: with.

00:16:57: Very well

00:16:58: Try not to salivate.

00:16:58: Yeah yeah

00:17:01: What?

00:17:02: no Just curious y'know.

00:17:05: Just a peek.

00:17:08: So yeah, he Allows you to look at it right in front of him.

00:17:12: He's not like.

00:17:13: yeah go study that.

00:17:15: I'm just gonna run the library real quick

00:17:20: And he has like a team of ghosts following if just

00:17:23: Just for me alone copying it and local ghost library

00:17:35: came across this, and out of the bag holding he pours out... ...the plus two resilient four plate that

00:17:43: has

00:17:45: the iconography of the city.

00:17:46: The ancient ruins attached to it.

00:17:52: I am not familiar with how to wear and wield this armor To its best advantages.

00:18:00: when i try to put on It feels clumsy and

00:18:04: unfamiliar.

00:18:06: But this... This artifact is from the city, and I wish to use it To help free the City.

00:18:14: but i will need training.

00:18:15: Is there anyone among you who could train

00:18:18: me in this?

00:18:22: I-I'll summon an armorer!

00:18:26: And

00:18:28: we do my best.

00:18:29: make sure that We can aid you In this way

00:18:33: Sirrrggg Because That would be

00:18:37: SO CUTE

00:18:40: God.

00:18:40: yeah,

00:18:40: so are you looking to spend a week retraining or are you just asking for

00:18:44: like?

00:18:45: Yeah that mechanically.

00:18:46: That is what I would have

00:18:47: to do okay Okay So the it will take some time to do that Are we?

00:18:55: I think this would make sense kind of with Sandor also trying to like learn spells potentially as well Like he's gonna need sometime.

00:19:02: Mm-hmm Think it's like a day per spell or something

00:19:05: one hour per spell rank.

00:19:08: Oh, plus you have to make the check.

00:19:10: So if he's trying to learn some

00:19:11: beefy it's a

00:19:12: well his Arkham is probably good enough To hit anything but like a seventh level spell would take seven hours in a DC thirty

00:19:18: one for a common spell.

00:19:21: Yeah

00:19:25: Okay so let's Before we go back to sand or so standard spells The other two of you?

00:19:35: Is there any thing that you want ask?

00:19:37: oh yeah Ambrose will kind rise up As well, it goes... Your Highness.

00:19:46: I have two questions.

00:19:47: if you wouldn't mind assisting me with your intelligence and the like?

00:19:57: It's kind of a sore subject but is how his face is- Like what the script that keeps changing And he was curious If you had anyone in your Legion or if you're yourself might make some sort of knowledge... ...of what is this, or can be solved.

00:20:21: As you see any kind of gestures Luca I- Well there's a uh unbreakable bond so to speak and i just wish to eventually separate it at some point..

00:20:34: I

00:20:37: believe that meeting someone as powerful as you, there might be something that you know or could point in the correct direction.

00:21:07: So

00:21:14: he looks at you though And he says,

00:21:16: why would you plan to break such a bond that is carried on through death?

00:21:28: It's because I was the one who pulled him back from

00:21:31: Death.

00:21:33: He was supposed to rest... ...I can feel it.

00:21:38: Feel Him with me all of the time and if i so often feel there are parts of Him which want go back after job done.

00:21:49: So

00:21:51: this is an act of mercy

00:21:54: for both us at

00:21:54: this point.

00:21:56: This is a mercy that I might never feel from myself.

00:22:02: For as long as one building stands in Sakuruk, I fear i may be

00:22:07: here

00:22:09: Defending it.

00:22:12: Therefore... ...I wish to see those pass on In the way That I May Never Be Able To.

00:22:20: I will look into this for

00:22:21: you.

00:24:52: He has blindness.

00:24:53: this isn't a third rank Magic missile with some.

00:24:56: sure you have vampiric touch Which Is something Else Now.

00:24:58: yeah He Does Have Dimension Door Which You've Already Used.

00:25:01: yeah i've Got.

00:25:03: He's Got Fly Freedom of Movement, which probably has a different name.

00:25:07: He also has one called Fire Shield?

00:25:11: You raise yourself in Ghostly Flames.

00:25:15: Gaining cold resistance five.

00:25:17: Additionally adjacent creatures that you hit with a melee attack as well as creatures that touch or hit you within an armed attack.

00:25:24: take two D six fire damage each time.

00:25:25: they do all

00:25:27: for a horde of ghouls like dad's

00:25:29: crazy

00:25:32: duration One minute.

00:25:32: so That's

00:25:34: great.

00:25:34: Oh my gosh.

00:25:36: He has a fifth rank.

00:25:37: he's got black tentacles, which is now slither.

00:25:40: Yeah his Dispel magic because of course he does.

00:25:44: yeah

00:25:45: I'm sure you have.

00:25:46: yeah do

00:25:46: also as cloud kill.

00:25:48: ooh

00:25:50: Maybe not as relevant with all the undead but definitely something to have.

00:25:54: and when you start talking it You know fight fighting regular people again?

00:25:57: No, there are dark peoples lungs.

00:25:59: hmmm He has Up into.

00:26:04: sixth rank is disintegrate.

00:26:07: Yep, I got that.

00:26:09: Vampiric Insanguination You see a very familiar wall of force.

00:26:16: yes

00:26:18: and we get in.

00:26:19: the seventh rank Is duplicate foe.

00:26:25: That's good one.

00:26:28: you create a temporary duplicate of an enemy to fight on your behalf.

00:26:32: The target can attempt afford too safe to disrupt the spell.

00:26:35: The Duplicate appears in an unoccupied space adjacent to the target and has the targets attack modifier, AC saving throws, perception skill modifiers.

00:26:42: But it only has seventy hit points.

00:26:43: that lacks the target's special abilities.

00:26:44: Only

00:26:45: seventy hit point?

00:26:46: Only!

00:26:46: Only!

00:26:48: Including... Lacks the target special abilities including immunities resistances weaknesses as no magic items except weapon potency runes The duplicate gains the minion trait, it can only stride or strike.

00:27:00: It strikes a deal that targets normal damage and but don't apply added effects since he doesn't have social abilities But automatically ends with the duplicate hit points for your zero.

00:27:09: Duplicate attacks her enemies to the best of its abilities.

00:27:11: You could also try give additional instructions when you sustain this spell.

00:27:15: You can also command a minion as part of your action But the GM determines whether duplicated follows your command.

00:27:21: Duplicate is unstable so each turn after it takes its actions.

00:27:24: It loses four d six hit

00:27:26: points.

00:27:27: It's not a living creature, they can never regain his lost hit points in any way.

00:27:31: But he gets the enemies attack

00:27:32: my fire

00:27:33: which is

00:27:35: oh

00:27:36: Yeah, yeah

00:27:36: that and AC So like of duplicating a boss?

00:27:42: Yeah, maybe they can speak insane right?

00:27:47: Yeah

00:27:50: We'll have to do some debuffs first before trying that amazing.

00:27:56: He also has Something called eclipse burst.

00:28:01: That sounds metal

00:28:03: So it is a range of five hundred feet.

00:28:06: well

00:28:07: It is a sixty foot burst spell.

00:28:11: I want you hear them again.

00:28:12: sixty-foot burst

00:28:13: Yeah, pretty insane

00:28:15: battlefield.

00:28:16: Yeah literally yeah.

00:28:18: A globe freezing darkness.

00:28:41: So we can just plunge everything into darkness and then explode.

00:28:48: And so, yeah.

00:28:49: If you cast that out and obviously it's a basic reflex.

00:28:53: save however on the critical fail.

00:28:56: The creature takes double damage and becomes blinded by the darkness for an unlimited duration.

00:29:05: So critically failing is

00:29:14: life-changing I

00:29:18: will just say like kind of thinking thematically wise.

00:29:20: That's something that happens to, like a city Of people?

00:29:23: Like you know

00:29:24: yeah Yeah

00:29:25: this devastation Happens and they're like oh my god all these People are blind right now like forever

00:29:30: because it is so.

00:29:32: So the Next one he.

00:29:36: The other thing You see Is reverse gravity.

00:29:40: That's

00:29:43: an eighth isn't?

00:29:45: It might be an eighth now But like I said, remember that this is an old sheet so they might be ace.

00:29:52: No it's the

00:29:52: Seventh.

00:29:53: It's Seventh

00:29:54: yep.

00:29:54: So Seventh?

00:29:56: That's a really fun one

00:29:59: Yes!

00:30:00: Um but yeah... So uh yeah, the universe gravity.

00:30:03: in the area.

00:30:03: creatures and objects aren't secured to the ground immediately fall upward to top of the area.

00:30:09: The creature may be able to grab an edge to arrest its foal Uh..but takes appropriate amount falling damage on the surface.

00:30:17: Once an object or creature reaches the top of their area, it floats caught between the normal and reversed gravity.

00:30:25: So yeah so like if you can't just send them to the upper atmosphere that does stop

00:30:31: off at some point

00:30:33: but obviously something can fly.

00:30:36: they're not as affected.

00:30:39: But boy is that a devastating spell used in places with high ceilings.

00:30:44: All

00:30:47: right, is that gonna be all the ones I can learn?

00:30:52: Yes.

00:30:52: Okay What do you guys think?

00:30:55: because obviously eclipse burst sounds really cool.

00:30:59: Duplicate foe sound's really cool.

00:31:02: i mean i'm i need a week.

00:31:04: so i say got to learn them all.

00:31:07: yeah

00:31:07: learn everything you get.

00:31:09: it's.

00:31:09: uh.

00:31:09: now It Is.

00:31:12: There's a gold cost

00:31:13: for each spell as

00:31:15: well.

00:31:15: So the seventh level spells three

00:31:16: hundred gold and I've got plenty.

00:31:19: I've Got a lot of cold.

00:31:21: we got called

00:31:21: yeah,

00:31:22: I mean Kezra alone has like three thousand

00:31:24: gold.

00:31:25: You said just asking for it.

00:31:26: Yeah, Anna bank

00:31:28: is good

00:31:29: That's

00:31:31: my say.

00:31:32: that's who's going to you?

00:31:37: Yeah, that shouldn't

00:31:38: really be an issue cool.

00:31:43: Yeah.

00:31:43: All right.

00:31:44: also An ingot of dawn silver that I haven't used yet, and that's five thousand

00:31:50: gold.

00:31:50: So

00:31:51: Jesus Five thousand

00:31:53: now

00:31:53: just oh yeah kezer also has an ink it on silver as well.

00:31:59: In gets a dawn silver lying around.

00:32:02: What do i do with this stuff?

00:32:03: Huh?

00:32:05: I'm just not feeling any inspiration.

00:32:07: Let me just go to a bar.

00:32:09: you're just like.

00:32:09: what can I get for them?

00:32:12: Now

00:32:12: regardless how much I would love to learn all these spells.

00:32:15: Uh, do we think we have a week to do this?

00:32:19: Because we could be on a clock here.

00:32:21: We're talking about you know fighting as hordes of undead like I want the sick armor Like work.

00:32:29: this is difference between like potentially two or three more AC.

00:32:34: for me It's

00:32:35: huge

00:32:38: Like it's different between us having a chance and Garn dying All

00:32:44: right, yeah Yeah cuz I was kind of curious about that as well like timeline wise but

00:32:54: you know

00:32:55: Like if we're going up against what?

00:32:56: Was it a dragon of multi?

00:32:59: Magma

00:33:02: magma.

00:33:03: Yeah That's

00:33:04: uh at something and all ghouls ghoul.

00:33:10: Oh, I'm just actually kinda curious about those You were talking about the starving or whatever.

00:33:15: there are the ghoul.

00:33:16: alright

00:33:16: yes Yeah, you had encountered some of them.

00:33:19: Yeah, what was the bound though?

00:33:21: Like are they just

00:33:22: ghosts?

00:33:23: yeah there They.

00:33:24: What they've been described to you as is like haunts like their sort of not mindless But they they cannot be controlled.

00:33:33: They don't even control themselves necessarily life if they sort of act on like Some ancient instinct or like routine.

00:33:41: And so that's why he can do anything about him because he's not in charge.

00:33:48: Oh, so in a case for this though like if we're just wearing Whatever.

00:33:52: This armor is right because I'm just trying to think about it Wearing the armor and It's kind of like we go into the battlefield or whatever.

00:34:00: Like that they would attack other people but not us.

00:34:03: Kind of like if they wander too much.

00:34:05: Yeah So-so If you were to don their regalia then They would just see you as one of them.

00:34:17: Yeah, I know because I knew like we're kind of going back and forth what were thinking about.

00:34:21: but yeah attacking the dragon is a big thing.

00:34:24: Okay.

00:34:26: All right how do we want to start this out then?

00:34:33: Montage

00:34:35: that.

00:34:35: yeah yes put on some montage music.

00:34:46: See Garn is just trying to like put on the armors, hands up.

00:34:50: He's

00:34:53: shaking his head though.

00:34:57: Look he tries to put it on and doesn't fit on Garn at first.

00:35:00: then the ghost gets frustrated.

00:35:02: Suck in

00:35:05: him!

00:35:05: Suck your gun in!

00:35:08: And we got the

00:35:09: sand door reading a book

00:35:13: Just him studying.

00:35:14: He

00:35:14: tries to cast a spell, just blows up in his face.

00:35:16: Oh man!

00:35:21: Back to guard and there's like two ghosts trying to get the armor on him.

00:35:26: They're just like.

00:35:26: why is it so lumpy?

00:35:30: The wizard king comes off from behind Sandor, pats him on his shoulder And keeps moving Like you'll get it.

00:35:35: he was very supportive.

00:35:41: So Time time goes by.

00:35:45: it has been a little while Up to up two week to retrain.

00:35:50: is that what?

00:35:50: That was him.

00:35:51: Yeah, okay

00:35:52: I

00:35:56: Get really bad at everything else.

00:35:58: so i'm swapping on my untrained improvisation.

00:36:02: It's the only one.

00:36:03: Okay

00:36:06: you're like just get back I can't even hit anymore.

00:36:10: So like

00:36:10: I used to have approximate knowledge of many things, but now i'm just not... My acrobatics has decreased.

00:36:18: I guess because the armor what?

00:36:20: What am also kind of thinking is happening Is like commuting with this armor is taking a piece Of my soul.

00:36:28: so skills that I had are being locked up into This armor.

00:36:35: and

00:36:36: oh wow

00:36:37: yeah My long-term plan, a little spoiler is when I hit level fifteen... ...I'm gonna take untrained improvisation again unless there's a super sick general feat that i want.

00:36:47: So my thinking is like part of my soul has now locked into this armor through communing with it and.. ..i have to unlock it through you know communing fighting with it To get those abilities

00:36:58: back.

00:37:00: so Garn is saying but my job?

00:37:04: It just full

00:37:04: plate.

00:37:09: What is going to do?

00:37:10: it's just full play.

00:37:12: don't ask about the full plate.

00:37:18: So yeah, you are a. you were fitted with this You're not.

00:37:22: Do you know that?

00:37:22: You feel familiar enough where he can move and

00:37:25: function.

00:37:26: so they They've run you through some drills and stuff like that And you know there they're like ya'll be fine Sandor.

00:37:37: you're looking through his spellbook and yeah, it's just amazing.

00:37:41: Just like the the dialect that is written in It's like You know so much older than you?

00:37:48: And so usually feel like your liver reading like ancient rooms.

00:37:52: Um,

00:37:53: you know how many centuries have passed between when the spells at he learned and He wrote them then copied him down from his master to like when you learn them.

00:38:03: Yeah, so it's like a different world.

00:38:05: And you know, Sandor is a master of Arcana but he is also a fairly young dwarf or higher.

00:38:12: I should say

00:38:13: yeah

00:38:16: But yes So I mean do you guys spend a week in the undead city Attuning yourself to this and you have seen the politics let's say of his area?

00:38:28: They talk constantly about where they've seemed Where they have witnessed some of the bound.

00:38:34: They've talked about where they've seen some of this start and how some people get attacked.

00:38:40: He talked about adventures that come in if adventures leave Because he has eyes all over the city.

00:38:46: It's just you can't

00:38:47: do much about

00:38:47: it.

00:38:50: Yeah, but that would actually be something that Ambrose to be kind like I wouldn't say like joining in the conversations But he was just being kind of passing by hearing conversation going.

00:38:59: hmm yeah Okay?

00:39:00: Like documenting information Cuz they I'm assuming.

00:39:04: They're speaking necrol.

00:39:05: so

00:39:07: Yeah, yeah, they would be speaking Necrol

00:39:11: as well.

00:39:12: maybe dwarf is

00:39:12: probably Let me see what?

00:39:16: Yeah net Necrals certainly There's also.

00:39:22: I remember what.

00:39:23: there's also this one sack sack frost.

00:39:25: was that?

00:39:26: is it the under one sack

00:39:28: froth?

00:39:31: Is that what you suffer from or?

00:39:33: That's

00:39:34: one.

00:39:35: I'm wondering

00:39:36: when it's too cold out.

00:39:40: Oh, It's a dark Lance language.

00:39:41: okay oh yeah under as known is under common.

00:39:45: Okay.

00:39:46: So so yes, so they're They're probably there probably not talking in that around Sandor because he clearly knows the Undercommon language.

00:39:56: Yep and if they want to not reveal or not talk about him They don't talk in that language.

00:40:02: Yeah, because I was um also just be like one of those things if it comes did you see?

00:40:05: there's two uh scolatriot members that left?

00:40:08: Like as you remember.

00:40:09: There were these two Just

00:40:11: Left

00:40:11: the fight and

00:40:13: yeah cuz the wall of force just took them out to fight entirely.

00:40:15: so i'm just

00:40:16: like do You know what happened with him?

00:40:17: just curious.

00:40:20: That is a good question.

00:40:21: Let me see.

00:40:21: let me see.

00:40:22: If they

00:40:23: i Was kind of curious about then guys i was like man.

00:40:38: rolling my back.

00:40:39: No your fine fine.

00:40:42: They said that they saw them running and The direction they saw him was to the temple of the all gods.

00:40:48: Okay That makes sense.

00:40:50: Yeah

00:40:50: so

00:40:51: Wonderful.

00:40:52: Two more to add.

00:40:56: So I got all the rock brace full plate applied.

00:41:02: My AC went up by two.

00:41:06: Yeah, so it went from a thirty three base AC to thirty five.

00:41:10: So when shield is raised I have a thirty seven.

00:41:13: Thirty-seven?

00:41:13: Oh my god!

00:41:14: And then you now have an AC equal to Benson's.

00:41:21: do?!

00:41:46: Like

00:41:47: yeah the amount of body at work on myself.

00:42:38: So I'm not.

00:42:39: i'm not too worried about it because uh, I know these guys are also rolling in cash.

00:42:43: Um...

00:42:45: I would only-I would have to beat at least an eight on all of The Seventh Fold spells.

00:42:51: Okay okay so you just want to focus on the seventh one?

00:42:53: No

00:42:53: no!

00:42:54: I wanna get fly fire shield deafness, like I'm scraping out all i can get from this.

00:43:01: Okay gotcha.

00:43:02: yeah um let's do the sevens levels and we'll see if you succeed at those okay?

00:43:09: And then If You Succeed At Those Then We'll Know That You Did The Other One.

00:43:12: How About That?

00:43:13: Yes

00:43:13: Absolutely!

00:43:15: So seventh rank is sorry Kelly Can You Remind Me What The DC Would Be For Seventh Rank Spells?

00:43:20: Thirty-One

00:43:23: Yep

00:43:23: Um,

00:43:25: first one for eclipse burst.

00:43:26: specifically I rolled a fifteen on the die.

00:43:28: So crush that

00:43:30: all right

00:43:31: four.

00:43:33: What's the other one?

00:43:33: Well what are your totals?

00:43:34: because it doesn't matter.

00:43:37: Oh, that was true Tim fifteen

00:43:38: plus twenty

00:43:41: three.

00:43:41: Thirty eight success thirty-eight.

00:43:52: That's thirty five.

00:43:56: Okay, so success.

00:43:57: then yeah

00:43:59: And

00:44:01: the

00:44:02: other one was reverse gravity.

00:44:04: Ooh I really want this one because it's fun.

00:44:07: Yes

00:44:07: This is a very fun spell.

00:44:09: Oh that's a seven on The Dive That's a thirty.

00:44:16: But

00:44:17: he can retry

00:44:18: and don't lose money for failure.

00:44:22: So i could just retry.

00:44:25: Yeah,

00:44:27: yeah.

00:44:28: So I mean you're just finding time?

00:44:30: You can try again.

00:44:32: Fuck!

00:44:32: I got a nine for a thirty-two.

00:44:36: Okay so success...you were able to get all the spells that we are looking at.

00:44:41: It has been

00:44:41: a master of our crown is actually really useful in this.

00:44:47: The week goes by and you've copied all those spells which find interesting with your wizard.

00:44:54: and you are ready to head out.

00:44:59: And

00:45:01: Harald

00:45:01: tells

00:45:08: you that he says, our canarium in that direction.

00:45:30: I know you and your friend...

00:45:34: any points at Ambrose

00:45:36: were doing research.

00:45:40: if you decide to inquire make your way down there please just be careful.

00:45:52: thank you.

00:45:53: i appreciate the concern.

00:45:58: we appreciate everything you've done for

00:45:59: us.

00:46:02: yes,I will wear this armor with humility knowing where it has come from And what purpose it serves?

00:46:12: It is a great honor.

00:46:15: To carry the honour of my entire city on your shoulders, I pray that

00:46:24: you do it justice.

00:46:27: Heavy at

00:46:27: ways...

00:46:29: ...I hope to see again in this form and not in one similar

00:46:34: to yours.

00:46:35: If that should happen You will have a home.

00:46:44: Thankyou!

00:46:49: Stop talking to me and leave.

00:46:51: Not good to fuck up, your liveliness is kind of parsing the

00:46:55: vibe.

00:46:58: Haven't had

00:46:59: a day on dance parties?

00:47:02: I tried to do The Dark Brother in Quest to the Skyrim and haven't been able to do it all week!

00:47:05: Get out!

00:47:10: So what did he imply that in order for?

00:47:13: For Ambrose to learn more information about his bond That we might have to pay a visit to where the bound are to get more info.

00:47:20: Is that the implication?

00:47:22: The arcanaerium is just on the way now who knows, What's still around?

00:47:27: Because he does not leave these halls because He knows that with Schumerix has just got it and gotta magma iron thumb on him.

00:47:36: so he stays here.

00:47:38: But he's saying that, like if you want to.

00:47:41: You can go down in the direction and see what is still around because he doesn't know.

00:47:45: So it could be looking for a tome or something?

00:47:48: Right yeah.

00:47:50: Well Ambrose I didn't realize how much this was weighing on me nor did i know she wanted free since we are here once then a lifetime opportunity Im willing to brave The Arcinarium To See What May Lie Inside.

00:48:09: I greatly appreciate that, Takan.

00:48:11: I

00:48:12: simply do wish to at least on part of this adventure just settle things Do how they should have been and for a juvenile mistake To be rectified.

00:48:27: And it's kind like when he says mistake He kinda bites his tongue in there because... It was you know

00:48:37: A moment Of

00:48:37: passion kind of sense.

00:48:39: Like he was freaked out And he was trying to do a ritual and ritual backfired badly.

00:48:45: He was trying bring his knight errant

00:48:48: back, unfortunately went

00:48:53: the wrong way!

00:48:54: Now he's bound him.

00:48:55: so it kind of like... I imagine with a summoner depending on what you have You're constantly feeling them all the time.

00:49:05: There is no reprieve

00:49:06: from that

00:49:08: Ripping someone for death Back to like the living, but now they're spectral.

00:49:13: Like it's kind of a curse upon itself.

00:49:17: Yeah and I mean if you think about it too The uh looking doesn't talk.

00:49:22: No he cannot talk.

00:49:24: His face looks fused almost kinda in a gashed way When he died.

00:49:29: It was not pretty.

00:49:30: So

00:49:31: yeah Um so You guys started making your way South East-ish towards where they said that the sanctum of the star lives.

00:49:45: They're sort of like a terrorist group down here, they live or whatever but this is were their headquarters kind of was and so you start going in direction sure enough if get to point it as a city ruled by grand wizard like this definitely had an arcanearium just immense size.

00:50:09: It tragically has been brought to ruins in many places.

00:50:15: Entire buildings, entire like you know coliseums have them like brought down.

00:50:21: all of it charged.

00:50:22: so that was by the Schumerich specifically.

00:50:28: but there are still some buildings and they're still some residential areas You Know Like The College Dorms And stuff like That.

00:50:36: They Have Buildings Like That That Serve As That Or Once Did.

00:50:39: Anyway And as you are walking along and have the general idea where your going, You see that there is a part of street like a market with stalls.

00:50:55: They were selling food and stuff... ...and it appears to be some ghostly figures that are shambling around just floating mindlessly.

00:51:09: Um, but there is one that's like kind of scraping the food with little bits of old desecrated dust of food.

00:51:20: That's still there and trying to scrape it out at the bottom of a box.

00:51:31: But his hand just goes through him sometimes And he looks at you all notices you and acknowledges

00:51:37: you.

00:51:40: Living...not often Walk so openly.

00:51:49: Living do not often carry the armor of Sakuraki,

00:51:53: but here we are.

00:51:57: My

00:51:59: eyes

00:51:59: deceive me in some way.

00:52:04: Are you?

00:52:06: Some immortal being that did not suffer our fate?

00:52:13: Well for one new one don't know if he knows this picture or have any eyes

00:52:22: Plotters always

00:52:25: Right then he remembers his blind.

00:52:30: Oh!

00:52:33: He takes us...he had like a hat that was too low, it's like six to the fourth

00:52:37: man

00:52:39: For the other?

00:52:40: No we have not befallen the fate this city has.

00:52:44: We've come from beyond From above.

00:52:48: In fact we didn't even know there is much left down here.

00:52:52: I'd only heard about

00:52:53: it in tales.

00:52:57: Tell me what.

00:52:57: uh What business do you have with us?

00:53:00: We, we don't mean to cause any trouble where trouble is not finding us.

00:53:07: Me I'm just looking for food For some reason... ...I dont even know if i could eat it necessarily.. ..i just hunger

00:53:23: constantly!

00:53:26: I feel bound too Searched for

00:53:31: it

00:53:32: And he looks up Sort of off in the distance and its just pitch black Like, your darkfist doesn't help

00:53:40: me even.

00:53:41: He goes...

00:53:42: But we should get inside if you wish to not be a permanent resident!

00:53:52: Come follow Bronn!

00:53:54: And

00:53:55: he points to himself and he points into the building.

00:53:57: that's still up.

00:54:00: Going like kind of makes eyes?

00:54:03: Um..

00:54:05: You said it was.

00:54:07: uh what does he look like?

00:54:09: is just kinda like figure?

00:54:14: He looks like a...like an Arcanarium student.

00:54:16: Oh, so he actually looks Like a dwarf kind of not like a ghoul

00:54:21: right?

00:54:21: No no no no he's it-he's A ghostly thing.

00:54:24: but yeah

00:54:27: Do a perception check or Basically you're just on do a lie to me.

00:54:32: type situation goes out.

00:54:34: So we'll be safe if we follow you correct?

00:54:37: I mean You look quite astute around here.

00:54:43: Go ahead and make me a perception check.

00:54:46: I've

00:54:46: been using deception, so let me stop doing that actually.

00:55:01: Deception's only one higher because it was not like a fucking

00:55:04: first.

00:55:06: That would still be at thirty-two.

00:55:09: So yeah he seems... He seems his mind is more intact than some of the other ghostly figures you have seen And he seemed curious to see if there were an inkling of lying.

00:55:22: But the thing that you also notice is there's a glint of light.

00:55:25: That seems to be getting bigger as this coming down from deep in the darkness way above him.

00:55:34: Please

00:55:35: please if you If you value your safety,

00:55:40: I would suggest we listen to us.

00:55:44: go see Scala and hide.

00:55:47: Actually

00:55:48: all right very scary.

00:55:51: he goes and he There's big double doors and it is this like large building And he goes up, and he reaches his hand to open It.

00:56:03: He acts as if you opened the door but then he just walks through The doors?

00:56:08: Like he thought that we'd open the doors.

00:56:09: But yeah You know... He's

00:56:10: running in motion.

00:56:11: so I guess We got it.

00:56:16: Luka!

00:56:17: Because of his strength is

00:56:19: fucking strong.

00:56:22: Open up the doors and what you see is a He that you go into a hallway.

00:56:29: That just has like I imagine like Hogwarts was just like large stone bricks Just blocks all the way down, and it's like all of these different Lake little portraits and paintings and stuff like that.

00:56:44: And there's this lake.

00:56:45: It's an Arcanarium school which does beautiful and amazing.

00:56:48: And just like the research that they were doing into the arcane, it's just

00:56:52: amazing.".

00:56:53: He says,"Please

00:56:55: enter this

00:56:56: room!".

00:56:57: Then he actually opens this one.

00:56:58: you see a large classroom.

00:57:02: A

00:57:03: check?

00:57:04: Just put a helmet

00:57:05: first.

00:57:07: Yeah I'm gonna be detecting magic all of these whole time.

00:57:10: There is a lot of magic around.

00:57:12: there was alot of necromancy I'm

00:57:20: gonna not hone in on any of the ghosts and Undead things filled with Nick romantic energy

00:57:25: that right.

00:57:26: Yeah, yeah

00:57:28: Things that are curious

00:57:30: or powerful?

00:57:31: Yeah

00:57:32: like would just afford a helmet Just checking like Thievory to make sure that there's nothing Like traps wise like I'm thinking like something they set.

00:57:45: But if this is like a magic school, I don't know.

00:57:47: There could be right

00:57:48: just something like that.

00:57:51: You you don't get that sense.

00:57:54: heat when he walks through He didn't like avoid anything Right?

00:57:58: You know what i mean.

00:57:58: so but As you go through and you close the doors It's about like sixty seconds later you hear And The ground shakes as Something flies directly overhead.

00:58:18: Oh

00:58:22: I'm sure that was just one of those underground vultures.

00:59:35: And he sort of like, keels over a bit and has this hunger that just continues to ravage his

00:59:42: mind.

00:59:45: Is there any way of knowing what's going on with him?

00:59:47: Yeah, I was about to ask.

00:59:49: Uh... Roll me a religion check.

00:59:51: Ah

00:59:51: fuck!

00:59:51: I thought

00:59:53: you were good

00:59:53: at religion.

00:59:54: One of the skills that uh Garen actually has from his war priest days

01:00:01: Suffering from-

01:00:02: My religion isn't terrible but i would probably have to roll very well To get this.

01:00:06: I had great religion But only rolled a twenty second

01:00:09: one.

01:00:10: Fuck!

01:00:11: Uhh..I rolled an actual one

01:00:12: That.

01:00:13: Would maybe a cult or now?

01:00:17: Because this is all ghostly and stuff like that, so I was saying it's going to be religion... You said you'd get twenty-seven?

01:00:24: Yep!

01:00:25: Okay..I'll say this....you think the history of Sagarok and the fact they held out for as long until essentially just starved to death has manifested in where trying to provide for themselves still even in death, Even a physical hunger that they can't possibly satisfy.

01:00:51: So you're not too sure what you could do about it?

01:00:54: But your like I their like hungry and they cant' do anything.

01:00:59: And are trapped like this.

01:01:00: basically

01:01:02: Yeah

01:01:03: so he was outside like you know trying to scrape whatever food He Could out of.

01:01:09: You Know What used To Be Like A Food Market but there Was Nothing There and Even Then He Couldn't He Couldn'T Satisfy Myself With That

01:01:15: Food.

01:01:16: Hey friend, you're not.

01:01:18: You win your hungry hands in the ghost Snickers.

01:01:23: Oh Finally

01:01:26: Sweet Carmel and peanuts.

01:01:29: Undead salted peanuts.

01:01:33: Very interesting with

01:01:35: what does Visumaric have against

01:01:36: our canary man?

01:01:37: How are you feeling

01:01:38: him?

01:01:41: he wishes for more power but Every time we're on the brink of something it just.

01:02:14: And he walks into what is clearly a classroom.

01:02:18: Um, I'll bring you guys over to the map.

01:02:27: Whoa!

01:02:28: This thing looks

01:02:29: cool.

01:02:31: It's a cool map And so he flies into the room.

01:02:36: I don't know if you're in yet But see it goes good to be just outside.

01:02:38: but he flies then and he goes

01:02:40: You see We were looking Into historical documents To See If There Were Maps.

01:02:48: Maybe One Of Us Could Teleport Out To.

01:02:54: These are all tales.

01:02:56: We don't know if... I have notes over

01:02:59: here.".

01:03:00: And he goes to like some notebooks that he was writing in and starts to write,

01:03:06: but

01:03:07: perhaps

01:03:08: one of the spell books would help?

01:03:11: He seems to get stuck into this thing about trying to solve The Hunger Problem.

01:03:16: Oh!

01:03:16: You quickly realize that the wizards that he's talking too They slip back into as if they're still alive and Sakurak trying to find out what to do With the with the orcs at their gates.

01:03:33: Yeah, it's a vicious cycle.

01:03:35: It's just like that.

01:03:37: Elf woman.

01:03:38: yeah, yeah the elf woman she just went in to her routine.

01:03:42: You put you put a torch on on Kezra.

01:03:46: Oh can he guys not say I can't see?

01:03:48: I can!

01:03:50: We usually

01:03:51: have

01:03:58: light

01:04:00: Now that we're in this classroom setting and Gorn is kind of seeing the whole replay in action, could I have another check to maybe try get more information about what's going on?

01:04:13: Yeah,

01:04:13: yeah go ahead.

01:04:15: the eventually one of the other ones sort Of approaches you and he doesn't fly over like the last guy did.

01:04:21: He walks over And he goes

01:04:24: Are...

01:04:25: are You here?

01:04:27: From the outside?

01:04:29: Did you have no problem getting through the orcs?

01:04:33: Oh well we have our own means.

01:04:37: I see, we've not scored

01:04:38: any points together.

01:04:41: There's no orcs out there you fool They've been gone for centuries.

01:04:47: That's not true!

01:04:48: It's simply not true, you're playing a joke on

01:04:51: me.

01:04:51: I got a thirty-four from Relation.

01:04:56: So as he approaches you and asks for food

01:05:02: If anything is that we can provide money

01:05:06: He pulls out a ghost wallet.

01:05:07: Ghost Wallet would chain Wallet

01:05:13: Ghost Velcro.

01:05:17: You remember the bubble buddy from SpongeBob?

01:05:21: Yeah.

01:05:22: How he paid with like bubble money, yeah Like that it's like I can't use this anywhere.

01:05:29: It is as if

01:05:30: you just have anything.

01:05:31: If we just had Anything which has provide us enough Enough nourishment to be able To keep working out.

01:05:37: We're on the edge of something great to finally Finally send them back to where they came and holds a belt.

01:05:45: This city will last with.

01:05:48: only we had your help.

01:05:50: So it seems that their hunger is just like driving them to this and you think oh wait, what was a religion check?

01:05:58: Thirty four thirty-four.

01:06:00: You think that if you provided food That he would sort of like give them the hope quote that they needed To be able to like finally be released

01:06:11: from us.

01:06:11: We do have a bountiful cauldron.

01:06:19: It can be commanded to fill with hard and delicious

01:06:22: stew.

01:06:27: But Garner would not know that, because it's Kesher's.

01:06:31: Kesher pulls out the cauldron... ...and fills up a soup.

01:06:37: How long have you had that thing?

01:06:38: You're telling me we've been eating trail rations all your

01:06:40: time?!

01:06:41: Well,

01:06:42: YOU'VE BEEN EATING TRAIL RASHES!

01:06:46: I've had this

01:06:47: whole time!

01:06:50: Slimes it down on the table.

01:06:52: No wonder your breath always smelled of leeks and venison.

01:06:58: He's gonna be so mad, he'll be SO mad!

01:07:03: That was what he was doing in late

01:07:04: nights.

01:07:06: You see Casper just like...

01:07:08: Just like...

01:07:09: Like uh... Hovering over his back holding this slouchy soup

01:07:13: out of him with his hands?

01:07:15: What are you doin' over there

01:07:16: Casper?!

01:07:17: Nothin'.

01:07:18: Be careful.

01:07:19: sticking your head into that guy

01:07:20: I don't know,

01:07:21: i guess sometimes make a mess.

01:07:23: The bottom of the bag of holding is just filled with soup.

01:07:28: I do love the idea that nobody has ever touched the bag because you're such a weirdo!

01:07:32: Like...I think he came in the bag dude.

01:07:36: He used to use the bag weird- I'm not touching it.

01:07:39: You never should have let me be the manager if this thing.. I've never cleaned my room

01:07:43: growing up.

01:07:46: Bags are

01:07:47: just a myth.

01:07:48: It

01:07:49: looks like there's like dear god

01:07:52: What

01:07:53: the fuck?

01:07:53: You're gonna clean this

01:07:54: damn bag, you're going to clean his damn bag.

01:07:56: Kerser and I want to look like that.

01:07:58: Clean it up.

01:08:00: Priceless magical artifacts with just candy wrappers in soup.

01:08:05: Gym socks.

01:08:07: Oh my god is a dead rat.

01:08:10: That was alive!

01:08:13: Do remember when we were playing at our Fivy game?

01:08:17: We opened for their back of holding to find something... I don't know but we dumped out and our GM Mitch was just like, yeah a dragonborn corpse pops out.

01:08:27: We were like what?

01:08:29: What are the items we have as a portal to

01:08:31: something?".

01:08:32: And they sent that guy through into the bag of holding it and just fucking died.

01:08:35: Yep!

01:08:36: And we had no idea for weeks.

01:08:39: The teleportation is floating in interdimensional space starting to suffocate

01:08:44: him.

01:08:44: Yeah

01:08:44: he's suffocated

01:08:45: and dead.

01:08:46: Like those ones don't smell

01:08:47: us at all...

01:08:49: There's a corpse?

01:08:51: What the hell?

01:08:52: Well,

01:08:52: here is an important thing because it has the corpse that we didn't

01:08:54: get on.

01:08:54: That was literally what... Right!

01:08:56: Literally.

01:08:58: Anyway So you lay this thing down and stuff just starts to like fill up.

01:09:07: You can see they are like.

01:09:12: How often could he use these?

01:09:15: This may save the entire city.

01:09:19: So they're asking for details on how this thing works and stuff like that.

01:09:22: Hmm...

01:09:24: Well, you can use it once per day And I could feed about twelve medium creatures Or eight hearted wolves.

01:09:37: It's not enough We need more!

01:09:42: A hundred

01:09:43: drives

01:09:44: us!

01:09:46: You see?

01:09:46: They start to get pretty angry Pretty anxious.

01:09:49: If you have a freezer just freeze some soup.

01:09:53: No You will satisfy us.

01:09:58: I need you all to roll initiative.

01:09:59: That's what a thought.

01:10:02: Ketchup throws the hot soup in his face.

01:10:08: You wasted

01:10:09: sewer.

01:10:19: I Was gonna take Luca out, always get Luka in there because i just select all And then just gets thrown

01:10:25: it.

01:10:32: middle of road role.

01:10:36: Okay Okay, okay All right going down the list Ambrose thirty

01:10:45: five.

01:11:12: T eight T eight.

01:11:12: Hey you're not last I'm not less You know last well.

01:11:18: So they begin to become very hostile.

01:11:24: The tone in the room kind of changes there, this room looked very nice when you guys were just talking and they're like discussing the magic and how did it deal with stuff?

01:11:38: And as they start to become angry, the truth of this place starts to get revealed.

01:11:43: is if not under some kind of illusory thing.

01:11:49: but it was like... They were manifesting itself.

01:11:51: now that we are putting on Does that make sense?

01:11:54: Like collective unconsciousness of the room.

01:11:57: Exactly, yeah!

01:11:57: With

01:11:57: them it was fine but now let's just

01:11:59: start... And so you're starting to see what this room is and its completely desecrated.

01:15:16: That was four.

01:15:19: Um, okay so embers isn't dude this just gonna happen.

01:15:25: He's going too with that together, run Luca over to this mage.

01:15:31: Over here?

01:15:32: Okay there's the one.

01:15:34: so let me describe you in this room.

01:15:37: sorry I did not.

01:15:38: it's a enormous classroom with four.

01:15:40: uh there is an aisle down the middle.

01:15:44: um It your typical like college classrooms where its elevated seats and theres a big balcony on outside.

01:15:53: So that way, like if there's any people who are visiting or whatever they can just be on the outside.

01:15:58: Sort of catwalk.

01:16:00: Those stairs go ten feet down into it and reason being is because inside walls of that balcony below them are bookshelves.

01:16:11: Books in books and books lining up the entire area of the student section.

01:16:16: Gotcha!

01:16:17: Well I feel he can at least move to here...

01:16:20: For sure.

01:16:21: Yeah,

01:16:21: pretty easily probably won't be able to get around him.

01:16:24: I mean I mean spectral.

01:16:26: so I mean you could technically face them To go speeding.

01:16:31: But yeah

01:16:33: and

01:16:34: He will strike out the hand because he actually does.

01:16:38: spirit damage Should be good.

01:16:42: So here's on two one action.

01:16:44: go one action swing

01:16:47: that is use the spirit bomb.

01:16:51: Give

01:16:51: me your energy.

01:16:53: Everybody put your hands up.

01:16:53: Kids

01:16:54: are stopping.

01:16:54: so selfish, give you energy.

01:16:55: That

01:16:58: is a four d to hit.

01:17:02: that Is it's gonna be a crit?

01:17:05: Yeah I'm trying to see.

01:17:09: does his Does his stuff count as ghost touch or spirit or anything like that?

01:17:13: Or

01:17:14: just like?

01:17:15: yeah

01:17:16: He has spirit on him.

01:17:17: Okay.

01:17:19: So, getting

01:17:20: that crit damage.

01:17:21: That beautiful crit damage of forty-eight points of damage.

01:17:28: Yeah so by type thirty six... six hold and six spirit.

01:17:35: I mean it's like he is striking spirit wise but

01:17:39: got okay.

01:17:39: yeah

01:17:41: uh you will strike again because why not?

01:17:45: two actions Okay!

01:17:57: So he remembers a time because that was

01:17:59: the natural

01:18:04: one Spirit

01:18:05: hero point.

01:18:07: but He kind of like gets really good with the first play.

01:18:10: He got almost cocky Almost Because you's like, oh wow this guy hit him pretty cleanly.

01:18:15: But then my second one which is gonna be like

01:18:17: a

01:18:18: horrible

01:18:18: sweat God knows what

01:18:19: would happen?

01:18:21: But he remembers this training like when he was training up in the house of Go-Invest when it was like,

01:18:27: in its prime essentially.

01:18:30: And just fighting with his brother and such like that... ...and what's getting the strikes down?

01:18:36: Like lockstep!

01:18:38: So he strikes...

01:18:40: Yeah so remember

01:18:42: your training.

01:18:42: Remember our training.

01:18:44: Uh..so he strikes out again....

01:18:46: ...and

01:18:47: that is a thirty five

01:18:48: hit.

01:18:49: That will hit.

01:18:51: Uh-oh, nineteen

01:18:53: points of damage.

01:18:55: Nineteen?

01:18:57: Okay!

01:18:58: And with his action.

01:18:59: he's... they're probably gonna use area spells anyway.

01:19:09: I'm trying to think up what action thing to do with him.

01:19:15: Yeah it just don't cash out on himself

01:19:18: okay?

01:19:22: after that from the rafters above you hear a voice Found you all.

01:19:39: And a creature drops down from the ceiling, almost like in a venom pose from Spider-Man.

01:19:49: This ghoul drops down form the ceiling.

01:19:52: He is less emaciated than your regular Ghoul or cast.

01:19:56: he's strong his muscles are Like

01:20:01: dense

01:20:02: and as he drops down?

01:20:04: He's wearing more clothes then most of them would to.

01:20:06: he seems to be more put together except his claws appear to be entirely encased or made of a dark, horrifying metal.

01:20:22: And he is dropping directly down

01:20:24: on Ambrose
