Introduction and Player Setup

00:00:07
Speaker
Hey, hey everyone! Welcome back to Brothercrested Bond. Luke is waving. I'm your GM Jesse. We are doing Hunger Games today. I'm speaking very quickly because I'm excited for this episode and I'm excited for the finale of Hunger Games. This is the last of this Hunger Games, so be ready for that.
00:00:26
Speaker
So I am your GM Jesse, and I'm ready for some bloodshed. Hi, I'm Mike. I'm your rootin' tootin' cowboy from District 10. Hi, I'm Davita from District 5. District 5, thank you. I was like, I don't know where my church name is. I was talking to somebody, so he taught me how to know where it is. Hi, I'm Davita. Nice to meet you.

Realization of Finale and Roles

00:01:04
Speaker
Hi my name is Ariana and I am from District 10 as well and I am here to apparently play the finale. I didn't know we were finishing today.
00:01:15
Speaker
Hi, I'm Luke. I'm going to play Lucius, who is the strongest and the only survivor of District 2. So if you think District 2 is good... There's no sponsors. No, I'm just saying that I'm the best. Oh, okay. Okay. Like, if you watch the movies and see, like, all of the careers, I'm better than them. Oh, dang. I just purely buy this. Okay, right. I lasted way longer than them. And we are rolling across the pond?
00:01:45
Speaker
What do people remember about the last episode of it? The protagonist is dying.

Recap of Past Battles and Current Strategy

00:01:52
Speaker
So that's definitely a sacrificial lion. So let's go. Aren't we all protagonists or? No, like Katniss Everdeen is dying. Yes. Which is not a good sign. Well, I wouldn't say die. She's in a fight. She got stabbed. Yeah. So did everyone here probably? On a level. That's on a level of dying.
00:02:14
Speaker
It's not dead. It's dying. I spent a lot of bloodshed. It's all I remember. Yes. Using all of my knowledge of nursing, that is a level of dying. How many are left? There's like six of us left? No, there is. Oh yeah. So the four of us, Katniss. Ten of you. Ten of us left. Ten of you left. So what happened was basically you guys started the
00:02:44
Speaker
The Hunger Games, you had different experiences. There was an epic battle that took place between Mike Ariana, Thresh and Clove and Rue and the other districts. You gained the cornucopia, then in that as well, Luke and Davida, you guys ended up in the cornucopia, which there was a scuffle and death and or two and
00:03:13
Speaker
Davida, you were attacked, you were mauled. Also, Mike, you were mauled at the same time, but you did not die. Davida almost died. And so, Luke and Davida, you decided to go and hide and recover. Then, Luke, you heard some things in the distance, so you went to investigate, which was the fight, the epic battle between Mike
00:03:38
Speaker
Ariana and the rest of the group versus the other districts and you just see Mike and Ariana with Ariana dragging Mike along then he received something to gain his health back and And then during that time Davida was being dragged away into somewhere someplace by somebody after hearing somebody in the lake appear and
00:04:03
Speaker
and then you approach this situation and you see Rue dead on top of Davida and you see Katniss Everdeen being stabbed by this troop for mail and that is where we are now right so you guys are in the middle of the forest it's very near to the lake but it's still not in the lake or
00:04:31
Speaker
Lake adjacent is just it's as close as you probably could be coming in between both the Situations this forest around you you see you're approaching from the cornucopias you're approaching and you'll see them to your right and You see Eda laying against the tree with rue on top of her rue is quite bloodied

Retaliation and Mourning: Emotional Stakes

00:04:56
Speaker
and
00:04:56
Speaker
District 4 male has stabbed Katniss Everdeen. What do you do? Actually, let's roll initiative. I roll a three. Fourteen. Sixteen for me, then. Nineteen. Okay, so Davida, roll me a death save. Oh, it was the first one? Yep. It was the first. Of course, but the first time it actually would help me to go last or whatever. I know, I need to go first. What would you call a death save?
00:05:29
Speaker
Okay, one fail for Davida. Okay, and then it's Katniss. And Katniss is gonna, what's Katniss gonna do? Die. Not yet. That's what she's gonna do. Not yet. Eventually. Yeah. She's going to attack back.
00:05:52
Speaker
And so you see Katniss take the knife blade out of that's just been stabbed her, twists his hand and stabs him with it. And he like backs away and like falls to the ground. What was that? That was the District 4 guy. Is he dead? You don't know that yet, but if you roll inside, but on your turn. So, and she's been getting smelly.
00:06:22
Speaker
Okay, Roo, Roo, headlight. She doesn't even care about anyone else or anything else happening. She just, he backs off, falls to the ground. She runs through and she's gonna roll. And she thinks Roo is dead. And so she, you just see Katniss go to her knees and just start weeping and just screaming.
00:06:49
Speaker
And then it is Mike. I'm going to go check to see if the guy's dead because if she's, yeah, so my thought process is Ru was our ally. If she's upset that Ru's hurt, I'm going to go see if the guy's dead because I trust her more than I trust him. So are you doing this stealthily or are you just walking up? No, I'm just walking up. He's stabbed in the chest. So go ahead and roll me a medicine check.
00:07:20
Speaker
Oh, duh, duh, duh, duh, medicine, 12. Yeah, he's dead. Okay. But you do, at the same time, Katniss turns to you and immediately, like, like, like really just gets like, she like throws herself on top of Rue and she's just like, leave, please. It's just what kept up. Hello? Wait, are you gonna kill me? Like, is this it?
00:07:48
Speaker
you're not very one one for very many words but um my my head is dead okay um well we have do i i know that luke is like a doctor right we're studying to be a doctor in medigame yes i guess yeah sure why not um
00:08:08
Speaker
I'm gonna tell her like, I was just checking to make sure this guy was dead so he didn't like kill you. And we have this guy, Lucius, he's a doctor, trained him to be a doctor. Maybe he could check on Rue and maybe she's not as bad as you think. It's district two. I'm just saying, I'll make sure that he doesn't attack you. Like you can keep your bow out. I'm just saying like, you want him to check on her. Yeah.
00:08:36
Speaker
So do you want her to, do you want him to check on her? I need him to drop his weapons. Like I usually just drop the bag being like, can I at least get my supplies? No, nothing. Okay. I'll try my best with what I have. If you want, and I'll ask Jessie if I could do it with disadvantage or whatever that would, whatever your rule would be. Do you want me to just instruct you how to help her from here so that you know that I'm not going to be trying to kill her or something when I'm helping her?
00:09:06
Speaker
Uh, I guess it's up to you. If, do you want my help?

Regrouping at the Cornucopia

00:09:11
Speaker
I, I fully understand that this is like a fight to the death. And so there's no reason you should trust me. You really don't trust you. Then I don't have to help her. Okay. I'm confused now. Are you not helping her or are you helping? I want to help her, but I don't know. You just said you don't want my help. I don't think I don't think she has helped. She can't, she can receive help. I don't know.
00:09:36
Speaker
Wait, can I insight to see if they're even still alive? Sure. Because that's a 21. 21, yeah, that Rue's gone. Ariana, it's your turn. Is Davida still, she's still rolling death saves, right? Yeah. We don't know that she's dead. Okay. You didn't roll insight on Davida, you rolled it on Rue. Yeah, I'm gonna ready in action. Okay, so what are you readying? I have a shield to
00:10:05
Speaker
use it. If somebody comes at you, you're gonna bash them? Yeah, like use it to protect myself, but also with force if needed. Okay, okay, I guess that's fine. And then it's Luke's turn.
00:10:26
Speaker
Okay. I'm like, I sincerely don't want her to feel like I do want to kill her. So I'm just going to be like, I'm going to grab my bag and I'm just going to go. No, you were first. You were first with your death save. Oh, sorry. I thought Luke went already. Luke's just doing a lot of talking.
00:10:47
Speaker
Okay. So you, you take your bag and go slow. Like I'm going to be like slow to grab me. It's like, I'm going to grab my bag. For what? So because she tells you to drop your weapon and then all of a sudden you're picking up your weapon. Uh, 19 and it's persuasion to also be like, I'm not, I don't want to hurt you. Or is that deception? Well, like I don't want to, but I know eventually.
00:11:17
Speaker
may come down to it so at this moment do you want to hurt her i don't want to know then it's fine the persuasion stands and so she sees you and she accepts you leaving there's no there's no she like can i can i take care of my friend no not right now okay then i
00:11:37
Speaker
I'll start, like, grabbing my bow and arrow and stuff, then I'll have to go through you. You're gonna attack? That's all she's leaving me to. Okay, that's fine. 20. 30. 20? I mean, that hits, yeah. What was the bow and arrow? D6? I wanna say, let me just... Yeah, D6. 6. 6 damage? Oh, my god!
00:12:07
Speaker
You're gonna let me go I was I need to check on my friend to make sure she's alive I don't want hurt anybody. I don't want anybody to die. What did it take my friend away?
00:12:23
Speaker
Me too! Well, I'm your first! Idiots! You can still go. If you leave right now, I won't- I'll stop attacking you. I want to leave! Then leave! I can't stop my turn! Is it still mine? Yes, I mean- Can I look at- Can I look at Timidator? No, you're already persuaded. No, you're already persuaded. You can't do that. I will leave. Just let me take Roo and I'll go. I don't-
00:12:54
Speaker
Yeah. Like my bow and arrow is pointed at the ground to be like, yeah, like I just want to take care of my friend, please.
00:13:16
Speaker
Second, I need to roll something for the, as the, as the game maker. Finally, can you get my sponsor stuff? You don't need anything. You crazy, this is gonna be interesting. You, after Davida's death save, you see PETA running in and he's like, just wait, what's going on? Like he's like, he's being his like over exaggerated self. Stop, stop, wait. And behind him,
00:13:46
Speaker
is what is it what's his name jack or what was the kid's name from six yes check no yeah what was it Luke was it Scotty Scotty district six Scotty runs after pita he has like little dagger
00:14:11
Speaker
And as that happens, you all see a fireball coming at you. I mean, at you. Not necessarily landing, but coming at you. I will say that ends kind of combat. Well, it doesn't end combat. It just creates a new atmosphere. So the next person after that is Katniss, and she will take Rue and run. Well, limp run, but run nonetheless. I'm gonna go loop.
00:14:42
Speaker
For the record, I did genuinely want to help Rue. I know. It's just, you know, how the dice roll. And story-wise, PETA obviously goes with her. The district six Scotty takes

Nightfall: Survival and Trust Discussions

00:14:56
Speaker
off. Who knows where. Mike, it's your turn.
00:14:59
Speaker
Are the fireballs still coming at us? It was one fire. It still hasn't even landed, so it's coming at you now. How close are we to the lake? Oh, I would say your running distance may be even lessened. OK, I'm going to run for the lake, just in case. Yeah, Katniss ran the other way, more into the forest. Yeah, I'm not chasing her. I'm just running for water. Fire water. It is very honest, too.
00:15:28
Speaker
I'm also going to run after Mike and go to the lake. Okay, sure. I'm running to the lake. Luke, what are you doing? I'm going to be a good friend. I'm going to be a good friend and... I forgot about the beautiful. Yeah, yeah. I'm going to check on her and make sure she's all right and stabilize her with medicine.
00:15:48
Speaker
To be fair, we don't have any, like, attachment to the needle. I mean, technically you do. Yeah, Ariana hardly knows her. Oh, whatever. That's so funny. I loved it. I was like.
00:16:05
Speaker
It's totally not Mike and I who have actually known her for years. There's too much into this role playing thing, but they can't really get out of the role playing thing at the same time. Yeah, it really is true. I can't. It's okay. It's okay. This is how you play the meta games. It's how you play the meta games. There's nothing wrong with it. So Luke, I need a strength say. Oh no, medicine first. First medicine. 18. 18. Okay. I would say she's stable then. So you stabilize her. So no more death saves.
00:16:35
Speaker
Now, are you just going to stay there or are you going to try and pick her up and run? Um, can I do that? Oh, I'm stabilized. Sorry. Yeah, you're stabilized. Yeah, you're good. Um, I will say you can do that, but that's all you can do. Like my full movement. No, you'd know if you carry her after doing the medicine, you can't do whatever the maximum you'll allow me to do. Okay. I need a strength saving or not strength save, uh, strength check.
00:17:03
Speaker
I'm trying to remember what the district two modifiers are. Uh, 11, 12. Uh, I rolled a 10. So whatever the modifiers, I think that's okay. 10 plus whatever the modifiers. I think, I think 11, 12. Yeah. I think that's fine. I don't, I think it was 12 anyways. So 12 probably be the minimum. And this is not in the same direction as catnip or are you running? Where are you running?
00:17:31
Speaker
Well, where, where did Mike and Ariana go? To the water, to the left. Which is not directly behind Katniss? No, no. Katniss ran into the forest more. Perfect. I'll, I'll follow them. Okay. Say you almost reached, uh, yeah, actually you were so close to the water. I'd say you still get in the water, but not probably as far as they did if they did their full move. But you're like at the, like the shore of the. That's all I would really want to do anyways. I don't want to be in the water necessarily.
00:18:00
Speaker
ground Davida. Yeah, it's just actually, that'd be a good way to get rid of one of the competitors. Yeah, that's fair. And no one else is around. So that is whoops. Right. Oh, no, Luke forgot he can't swim. Oh, wait. Mike said I was a doctor. I'm not a doctor. I don't have to follow the Hippocratic Oath. Right. Okay. So
00:18:30
Speaker
bit fireball made everybody scatter you do see like another one or two kind of just hit a general area there so you do see kind of a flame go off and then but then a rain cloud comes and kind of washes it away and uh what do you guys want to do it is now properly nighttime are we gonna start hearing some cannons soon is it like that yeah so i would say soon but not now i would say we we go back to the cornucopia and make can't
00:19:00
Speaker
if you guys are okay with that. I think it's empty, right? You've been gone for a while. Can somebody like heal me again? No one else has healing stuff. I'll do whatever Jesse allows me to do. I guess you could, uh, no, uh, Luke, you only, the only thing you went in prepared with is non-exhaust for like an extra 30 minutes of that. You can,
00:19:28
Speaker
Do we, we don't have like medicine, I can't, I can't say you could probably wait bark. No, no, I know. I know. I know. It's just, I'm trying to think what, what would they have that's naturally in there? Cause most of it is to hurt you. So I guess we're all investigation for me. What kind of injury do you have? Uh, but
00:19:57
Speaker
I also tripped. Oh, yeah, you're so blinded. Someone scratched my eyes. Oh, yeah, you can't really heal that. So I don't remember exactly how I died. Oh, somebody tackled me when I was in the bush. What was it? You tripped. You tripped because somebody would know you. You heard somebody and then you tripped and fell because you rolled a natural one.
00:20:26
Speaker
My primary injury was from the eyes. I tripped a couple of times, which made me die too much. So what does that mean? Like you fell in a sharp, you've been impaled or something. She's got a few scratches. Yeah. Mostly right. So what'd you get? I run around being like, these aren't orange bottles. There's no labels note. So it's like three. We're going to try and make a, like a stretcher for Davida and take her back to
00:20:57
Speaker
the cornucopia and see if we can find some healing stuff over there. Right, guys? Yeah. Yes, sir. Sorry, I'm not trying to take a lead here. Well, clearly, you're the most mature of us.

Final Four: Conflict and Strategy

00:21:12
Speaker
You have cowboy attire. Yeah. Would it be investigation or survival? Investigation because you're looking for stuff. That's a 13. 13.
00:21:26
Speaker
Oh, wait, hold on. Investigation 12. Not very observant. Is this in the negatives? Yeah. Hmm. Anybody else want to look around? Oh, yeah. Sorry. I was just surprised. Just caught off guard by you had and having a negative. You boosted something else. That's why he gave you something. Yeah. 19. Okay. 17. Oh, so, um, after your,
00:21:55
Speaker
demand for this to happen, Mike. And these guys both... Oh, we talked about this before. Then you're like, let me look for things. And then you look for things and you're like, I got sticks, I got stick. And then Luke's like... There's rope in your backpack. Yeah. He's like that. And then Ariana's also like, yeah, I already have, you know, let's let me and Luke take care of this.
00:22:25
Speaker
Also the backpack. You just tied two backpacks together and it's just one. Well, you guys figure it out now. You have the supplies, you can do it. And you throw the Vida on there or do you gently place her? How do you do it? I will lift her and gently... I'm gonna use my trading because I actually know the problem with people. Just because I feel like that question is a trap.
00:22:50
Speaker
I'm gonna get Mike's help, but... Okay, instruct me on how to look at it. Okay, that's fine. I will leave that be. You guys head back to the cornucopia. I wanna look around, make sure there's nobody in the cornucopia. Wait, have I come... have I come to you yet? I'm sorry. Obviously, I want perception. I don't wanna repeat it. Uh... No, you're still kind of unconscious.
00:23:18
Speaker
But actually with the time passing, maybe when they arrive at the cornucopia, you kind of come to. So I want to say before you enter the cornucopia. All of us. Nat 20. Not as bad as about six. Six. And Mike is back on top.
00:23:37
Speaker
not be smart but i can see people i don't know you see see district six girl kind of rummaging through the cornucopia like just looking for something with a natural 20 i don't know why i don't know why this happened to you mike last week and this week you'd also district four girl i don't know like in pieces around and the only way the reason you can see is this
00:24:07
Speaker
is because her hands, no, not her hands, her boots are still there in front of where a mine was. Like half of her body is like hanging over, like against the platform that you guys started on. And then the other half is kind of just everywhere. So like she was trying to dig up a mine or, okay. Yeah. Yeah. And it's set off. She was trying to do that. So she exploded. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. But it was like,
00:24:35
Speaker
far in the distance. That's why I didn't hear anything. Don't hear an explosion, but I can see her dead body off in the distance. Hey, you wrote the natural 20 perception. I have to give you what I see. Not what you hear, what you see. I assume that me and Luke are carrying Davida, right? I think I would
00:24:56
Speaker
convey to Luke and Ariana and Davida, if she's conscious, that there's somebody there. And I'm going to gently put her down and approach. So you're going to put your side down? Is Luke going to do the same thing? I mean, that's why I'm... Are you going to communicate? I was talking to Luke saying, hey, there's somebody there. We should probably get ready to fight if we need to. So you gingerly put Davida down.
00:25:26
Speaker
David, do you also wake up about this time? What happened? Where am I? You still can't see. Wait, I don't know what's happening. Where am I? Quiet. There's somebody here. Quiet. Oh my gosh. We're running into a recruit. Just kidding. I'm kidding. In that, as David is having this kind of milk challenge. No, she talks about
00:25:53
Speaker
us not like being too much into the game and not being meta enough, but she doesn't recognize my voice. I'm just saying. So district four girl pops her head up and clocks you guys and runs off with that with like three bags in the tall grass killer.
00:26:16
Speaker
No, I think we just secure the cornucopia. She needs to rest. I don't think we need to get in a fight right now. So we take the cornucopia. Yeah, yeah. So you go back to the cornucopia and you rummage around, roll investigation. All of us? Whoever's looking. Three. I'm rolling really low. Five. I'll say 17. I'll say 17. It's a natural 20, but I'll say 17. It's a two, but I'll say 17. What is it really?
00:26:46
Speaker
16, but I'm like, I think I have one in wisdom, I'm not sure. 16, 17 is fine, whatever. Yeah, I think you like, Luke, you can, you find maybe more of that, like first aid stuff, yeah, that you can give to Davida. You also, with a 17, you also find some, like a bag just full of rations. Just, there's nothing else in there, it's just full of rations.
00:27:17
Speaker
And that's it. I want to search for something, too. Just while she's doing that, just for flavor, I'm going to be something next to Davida, like, eat. She can't say it. She can't say it. I will say, Davida, then with this first eight, you get plus six. Not plus six. You roll a d6 for me, and you get plus two from that d6. For health. For health. Roll a d6.
00:27:44
Speaker
So what did you get, Ariana, for yours? Uh, nothing. It's okay. Okay. Okay, you didn't find what you were looking for. Yeah. So you guys have the cornucopia. And Davida, you are back up by how many? Did you say plus two? You have four. You were over one. Yeah. Yeah. One plus two. Oh, I'm at five. Great. So that is the night.
00:28:11
Speaker
Then you hear the cannons and you see basically everyone you probably killed other than like the district. I'm gonna say four because that's what Mike said and he's the one that's hot. It's fine. It doesn't matter. So you just hear all the cannons, you see all the faces and that's that day. So then the next day... Wait, wait. Nobody likes super important to me instead. Like my best friend who abandoned me, Scotty. No, Scotty's fine.
00:29:04
Speaker
so far then the next so this is the morning of the next day if you guys want to do anything anything
00:29:10
Speaker
I'm immediately serving the investigation. Make sure nobody's snuck up. All right. Roll the investigation. 20. That's 20. No one's there. Long rest. Yeah, I'd say that. Yes. So what we can say is that the eye scratching was kind of superficial. I think that's what you said. It still irritates your eyes, but not anymore.
00:29:34
Speaker
So they were very disadvantaged. They were very red and very irritated. So that's why you couldn't really see. So no, I'd say you're fine. I see you're fine. Yeah. The next day happens, you roll the investigation. Anybody else want to do anything? I want to eat. You want to eat? Okay. Is there specific you want to eat or do you want to do some rations? I'm sure I got energy for the day. Okay. Is there meat in those rations? Yeah, probably dried meat.
00:30:02
Speaker
Just meat on the ground. There's also meat on the ground. I don't want to eat people, I'm sorry. Not there yet. Yeah, let's all eat. All right, cool, great. You guys are creating this nice environment. You do hear a cannon go off. And so, I don't know, I'm going to roll. Okay, let me say this. Why don't we do it like
00:30:30
Speaker
this to make it a bit interesting. I will not roll unless you want me to roll. I'm going to suggest something and if you're up for it we can do it otherwise I'll just roll. So what I'm going to suggest is one of you rolls for the morning, one of you rolls for the afternoon, one of you rolls for the evening, and one of you rolls for the night of that day. So what you're going to do is roll a d20 and if it's
00:30:55
Speaker
above a 15, then you do see another tribute. If you roll below 15, then there's no one nearby. All right. Or I can just roll and I'll let you know. Wait, like as in, just checking on your wording. We see them as in they are there or we just, they could be there and we just don't see them.
00:31:25
Speaker
You will create an encounter. Just want to make sure. I'll roll for the morning. I'm OK with that. OK. That's a one. OK. You're fine, actually. A one is very good. One is no worries. All right. Who wants to roll for an afternoon? 10. OK. Nothing happened that afternoon. Luke? Four. Four? Again, nothing happened. Did you finish this up? Four. Four. Perfect. Nothing happened that day. Now I'm going to just make a roll.
00:31:54
Speaker
I'm gonna say throughout that day, you hear three cannons go off. That's already four, so we're the last four.

Final Confrontations and Betrayals

00:32:02
Speaker
Right? Or are there no images? That's the night. And so at the end of the night, you hear the music obviously go off, and you see District 6 boy and girl gone. You see Katniss Everdeen gone. You see PETA, whatever his surname was gone. So four cannons?
00:32:23
Speaker
We are, we are the final four. And there is only four left. It's just got spicy. I'm going to grab the nearest dagger. So I karate chopper neck. Yeah. All right. Okay. When I hear the last one, I'm going to suggest, so it's the night, right? Yep. Okay. I'm going to suggest that we all go our separate ways.
00:32:49
Speaker
and meet back here in the morning to finish this. What's the point of leaving if we're coming back? I'll just get a rest and get yourself together. Rest all day. Yeah, well. Okay. Okay. Go ahead. I mean, there's plenty of daggers around. That's fine. I will grab a sword. Okay. Yeah, I have my sword, so. Okay. All right. Roll initiative. All right.
00:33:13
Speaker
I didn't say I was going to play it. I'd say roll initiative. I would say the beat of my fight. I don't know. Roll initiative. Let's go for it. 11. Three. Or 13, I guess. Oh, four. 18. 12. Okay, Ariana, what are you going to do? I am going to run out of the cornucopia and climb on top. Of the cornucopia. Okay. I want to, well,
00:33:42
Speaker
Okay, let's paint a picture. So, where are you guys before the cannons go off? I know I should have said this before the cannons go off, because now you're being strategic, but just... I mean, I was assuming, I was picturing myself at the opening enough to have been looking up into the sky and seeing the images. Cool, that's fine. Fair enough. What I'll say is then, Ariana, you were very close. Are you just making a disengage and just going for it?
00:34:10
Speaker
Cause if you're disengaging, you won't be able to have the opportunity to climb. So, um, so can you explain to me what disengage, disengage means your whole turn is over and you were just running away. You're using a whole turn to run, but that means you don't get any opportunity attacks if somebody attacks. So I guess, I don't know, like maybe not necessarily running in the sense of like, yeah, running away, but exiting the cornucopia, but I want to move fast, which is why I said running. So I want to, I want to climb on top. I want to get a higher ground. Okay.
00:34:39
Speaker
I will say then, if anybody wants to attack Ariana, you have the option to if she's moving, when she's, as she's moving. I'm a prisoner to limit. If I'm not going to, but if somebody else will, then I'm like, okay, crap, this actually is starting and I'll stab her, but I don't want to. I still have a little bit of loyalty as far as like, yeah, district loyalty.
00:35:08
Speaker
Okay, that's fine. I'm taking your first answer. Okay, that's fine. So Ariana, I want you to do a, I will say either, well, strength or athletics, one of the two.
00:35:23
Speaker
Uh, oh, great. I forgot about modified five, five. You try and climb up to the thing and you just can't, you can't get the right footing. You can't get the right grass. So you try and climb up. You fall down. You still have movement. I will tell you that. So what happened here, right? Is I tried to, I liked climbing. No, she didn't use her movement because she didn't climb. She couldn't get, she couldn't start the climb. So I want to run around to the back of the cornucopia to try to get a better footing later. Okay.
00:35:52
Speaker
So you're in the map, the cornucopia. What did that look like? So you were all kind of just like, Oh, and so she like, as you guys were doing your things quickly, she like just took off around and tried, like she tried to grab, like try to go for it and try to grab, but then just fell back. Just was like, forget it. Go.
00:36:15
Speaker
If you think of Frozen, where Anna was trying to climb, but she gets not even a step up, it's less than that. She went there, no. I was thinking it's too slippery, and she realizes she can't climb, so she runs around.
00:36:36
Speaker
Like, it didn't look like she was like, you were, if Ariana's gonna answer that. You were like tripping. Ooh, oh. I mean, I just like couldn't get a grip at all. So I couldn't even start. Okay. Yeah. So, uh, that's Ariana, and it is Devita. I think there's a way we could trick the game makers and end this thing without killing each other. If not, then... No, it's never happened before. Well, I can't believe it's already been.
00:37:06
Speaker
They're dead. Okay. Okay. Well, you just asked for it. So I'm actually gonna pick up another arrows instead. All right, let's go for it. Take a shot at Mike. Okay. So roll an attack. 16. 16. We're trying. Yeah, that hits. Now I have
00:37:35
Speaker
a specific modifier for this as well. You also get a dodge, Mike, because you guys had this conversation, you see her shoot at you, you get a dodge. Okay. Yeah. So I just use the dodge. It's a perk for Hunger Games. Okay. So you roll, you roll a deck save. Okay. A dexterity? Yeah. A dexterity save. That is an eight. An eight, you definitely, you still get hit by this arrow.
00:38:05
Speaker
So roll damage. You want damage. All right. So you kind of like mix your arm. Sorry, Mike. I just, I don't want to lose this. I want to win. Sorry. That's fine. Then it is Luke's turn. Yeah. I'm going to, I'm probably going to try to climb. Okay. That's fine. Cause the other two are,
00:38:32
Speaker
yeah after each other so roll me strength or acrobatics athletics 15 yeah I'd say you get there you struggle but you get there so you're on top how far is Ariana she's behind the cornucopia so maybe like 10 feet I meant like from the ladder if she wanted my help I didn't even know there was a ladder
00:38:55
Speaker
Oh, we were just climbing up the side. Oh, so I can help her from anywhere. Yeah. So I'll extend my art. Do you want help, Ariana? I don't know what I want. You do whatever you want to do, Luke. It's up to you. Do you want help up here? Yeah. No, not immediately. I might be reassessing my plan. Somebody go for it, your turn.
00:39:19
Speaker
I'm gonna throw my spear at Davida. Shot at me, I'm just saying. We started this, let's go for it. Let's go for it, I guess. So roll a deck. Nineteen. Nineteen, okay, Davida, roll a deck save. Five. Five, so you get hit by the spear. Do you remember what the spear damage is? I don't remember, I don't have it written down. What's anything or just d6? Just d6.
00:39:47
Speaker
I think it's a versatile weapon, so if you want to try it. Yeah, but he threw it. He threw it. He threw it down. I have a sword. That's two damage. We're like slowly chipping away at each other. Two damage, yeah. Okay. And we're back to the top, which is Ariana. Okay, I want on top of the corner copy. Okay, great.
00:40:09
Speaker
I can't help her. If you are offering... It's not a reaction. It would be your reaction. Yeah, I'm happy with that. Yeah, you can offer her help and that's your reaction. What do you mean like reaction to my... So you can roll advantage. It's my stuff. You just have to... You get to roll advantage. Athletics? Yes, or strength, whatever. Wait, 17. 17? Yeah, you pop up there with Luke.
00:40:39
Speaker
Thanks, Luke. This is my favorite kind of thing, where everyone is fighting around me and I'm like, oh, that joke. Why did you climb up here? I just want to be like, if I was just standing in the cross hairs of that fight, it's just going to be dangerous. You just want to like, you want a good view. So now it's Davidas here. Let's go Davidas.
00:41:04
Speaker
Mexican standoffs are good for movies, but not great

Emotional Impact of Deaths

00:41:07
Speaker
for any movie.
00:41:19
Speaker
I don't even want to attack or anything. I'll be watching them fight and ready in action. If Ariana chooses to try to attack me, I'll stab her. So you either are watching or ready in action. So if you're ready in action for Ariana to defend yourself from Ariana, I would say you're not watching them, you're watching her.
00:41:44
Speaker
and you're, just in case anything happens, you are going to dodge or you're going to attack. Attack. So yeah, you're ready to attack. If you attack. Yeah, obviously, there's a reaction. Oh, you can't. You can't because you used your reaction to help. Mike, it's your turn. All right. I'm going to use my whip to try and hit the Vita. You guys are inside the chronic. Don't be afraid.
00:42:13
Speaker
Yeah, I think so. He's watching them like hanging over the edge. Yeah, yeah. I think he said he wasn't watching. He was watching you. I thought you said, oh, you are watching her. Okay. I'm just kind of mostly watching Ariel. Do I get advantage with my whip? No, huh? No. Okay. I got a three. Three misses. There's too much stuff in here. We didn't lose it. Okay. Yeah, we are back to the top.
00:42:43
Speaker
Ariana. Ariana, go for it. It's night, right? Okay. I want to... I guess, would it be perception or investigation? I want to basically look around our findings and see if there's any other danger. It'd be perception. Oh my goodness, that is so funny. Okay. As you... Okay. 16. 16.
00:43:13
Speaker
Yeah, you don't see anything yet. I'm so coming. Uh, you don't see anything on the ground yet, but you do see two kind of things coming down from a parachute, like little parachutes with the blinking lights. Yes, it looks like it's heading directly towards you guys. And it shows one is decently large. And then the other one is, uh, uh, not longer, not larger than a hand.
00:43:42
Speaker
Now, I have a question for you, Luke. As your District 2, what is your weapon? What is your weapon of choice? A hand trident, I guess. Okay, hand trident. It's fine. And Ariana, what is your preferred weapon? My preferred weapon of choice? A syringe. I knew it. I don't know how, but I knew it. Is that why you made it so small? I didn't think about this until the moment you asked me that question. That's crazy.
00:44:12
Speaker
I just want to say I'm learning a lot about you guys right now. Ariana, you obviously see these things. Do you tell Luke? No, I'm staying pretty quiet right now. Cause I'm not sure if what is coming is coming to me or to him. And if they're both for me, I don't want him to have a chance to get it first. Sure. Yeah. So what I'll say is then Ariana, yours lands in your hands because obviously you're waiting for it. You see it.
00:44:40
Speaker
Luke, yours kind of lands next. I don't see it. Not necessarily. You're, yeah, cause you're not, you're, yeah, your picture is not as focused as hers is and it's nighttime. So. Whose turn is it? Your turn. It's my turn. Okay. I want to yell and run at the same time. Here's what I do. Let me say, Luke, watch out. There's a bomb. And then like, go to like kick it off the cornucopia. Kick his? Yeah.
00:45:10
Speaker
Okay, uh, roll deception. Okay. I love how it's me and Ariana, the girl, to attack first. I have not attacked anyone. What? Oh, it doesn't, I mean, just, what did you roll? Ariana. One. I rolled a... Wait, really? So, what I will say is, you say, Luke, look, a bomb. Oh, watch out, a bomb. Luke,
00:45:38
Speaker
you fall off the corticopia then ariana you as you go and try and kick also fall off the corticopia i fall off yeah you both fall off because you rolled a one no i said 21 21 oh that was way different oh my goodness yeah
00:46:01
Speaker
No, no, no, no. Deception is, don't worry. I'm going to say. So yes, Luke still falls off the corticopia. Okay. When you say that. How far is it? It's not 10 feet, so you don't get any damage. It's like eight. So Ariana, I will say with the 21, you see him get scared and you see him fall off. So you have a second to think about kicking it off. Do you still kick it off or do you not?
00:46:28
Speaker
No, I think as he's falling, I just start scrambling. Like, I'm not sure what to do because I didn't necessarily try to like, my intent was not to push him off or anything. So I'm like half- Roll the natural one. So you have to roll. So you fall on some rock and you take a D4 of damage. No, not you Ariana. I do. So basically I was like half scrambling to like maybe try to grab Luke, but then grab the thing that I started to kick off and catch it from falling. Perfect.
00:46:58
Speaker
But it's Arianne who kicked me out. No, no, you fell off. You got scared. Oh, okay. Okay. Also a one. Okay, from there, David is tamed. Like a... a glaive? A glaive? A halberd? Or a pike? A pike. There's definitely a pike. Okay, I'm gonna grab... I don't even know what a pike is, but I'm gonna grab it. It's like... it's like not necessarily like a maze, but it's like... it's just like a... Oh, it's the thing with the big spiky head on it. Yeah.
00:47:28
Speaker
that the Black Rider destroys. It doesn't matter. Just attack. It doesn't swing. It's just on a stick. Yeah. It's just a stick. Oh, okay. Nevermind. Because the one that destroyed A was on a chain. No, that's a mace. Yeah, that was a mace. Okay. Yeah. So I'm grabbing the pipe. Sure. I think it might be a two-handed thing, though. So you have to put away your bow. Yeah, I think it is heavy two-handed. Yep. I'm grabbing that and I'll go for it. Twenty. Twenty. A natural twenty?
00:47:59
Speaker
I think I'm dead. I actually know yet. Yeah. Roll. Yeah. I don't even think I don't think I get a dodge yet. You got an eight plus another roll because you had a natural 20. Oh, I mean, you can double it. Yeah, we can do it. All right. I'm done.
00:48:27
Speaker
Thank you. I'm kind of sad. I didn't get to use my adrenaline. I totally forgot about it at the beginning of this. Well, that's okay. You forgot about that. You forgot about what? Nothing. Don't say it again. It doesn't matter. Well, I just figured you need to go to your party, so... That's fine. I like how this ended up. Davita's so nice. Mercy. See you, guys. Into a half a rage. Bye.
00:48:57
Speaker
Thanks, Hank. And then at that time, to beat it, you also see Mike. Or not Mike, you see, you hear Luke fall on some rocks on the outside. Actually, yeah, because you weren't looking at them. You were looking around. So we'll say you fell off the side, not off the back or at the front. I saw Luke fall off the side. Yeah, you heard a thud. You didn't necessarily see, I don't know if there's windows inside, but yeah, you heard a thud on the side of the cornucopia. Yeah. Oh, look.
00:49:27
Speaker
Can I get some movement? I'll go look and see. You have movement yet, definitely. You can't attack, but you can... I gotta go around. Okay, you see Luke lying on the ground. Davida, are you okay? I had the pipe behind us. You're hiding the pipe. You literally didn't just kill a guy. Yeah, fine, are you okay? Oh, you all see, you guys both hear the cannon call. I just look at Davida and be like,
00:49:56
Speaker
Um, he tripped. People can die while tripping. Like, that happened to me twice. Do I really have to roll wisdom save today? No, you don't. I mean, are you trying to deceive him? You can't. That's an interaction. If he wins, I tend to really roll for that. If they have my turn, please. Oh yeah, true. True. Alright, uh, well yes, that interaction has happened.
00:50:20
Speaker
If it's Luke's turn, by the way. Bloodthirsty killer right in front of me. Hiding a weapon behind her. She didn't roll the deception. Just killed a man. I think it's probably a safe bet to try to take her out. Just being as heavy as 18 pounds. Yeah.
00:50:38
Speaker
I'll just use my sword. Longsword is first attack, right? I think so. Okay, so I'll do that. But it's 17 to hit? What are you hitting, or what? So it's looking great. Yeah, with a melee attack, I'll say again, there's no jaw. But that's what it is. Okay. Are you sure? I think so, because we didn't let Mike do a deck save.
00:51:00
Speaker
Well, because I was a Net. Oh, that's true. That's right. Okay. Uh, so yeah. Devita, roll a deck save as you see, uh, Luke. Five. Five. You, you still hit. Uh, 11. 11 damage. Ow! Wait, what did you roll again? Ow! How 11? A D10 plus. He rolled a 10 for this. Oh, you rolled a D10 and it gave you this. A D10 plus two. It was a nine plus two.
00:51:28
Speaker
because you have proficiency. So to be that you've been sliced in half, I believe, or do you have any help left? Okay, so I guess. I mean, I guess I'm going with Death Saves. Yes. We didn't give Mike Death Saves because he had to. Well, no, we didn't give him the opportunity. I think that's coming down to the wire. So I think that's it. I think we just say no more Death Saves. I was like, yeah, maybe we should just not have Death Saves at this point.
00:51:58
Speaker
There's just four of you left. Yeah. Well, now three. Oh, now two. So, so Luke, how do you kill her? Also, I went to be able to describe how she killed Mike after I kind of, can I met a game and ask how Davida would not to die? You, you tell me you ever like an honorable dad. No, no, no. You tell me how you can.
00:52:18
Speaker
Okay. Um, cause I, again, district two, so I wanted to be as like poetic as possible. Um, the arm that I bandaged, I want to like cut that clean off, like from, from the neck of the other side to the arm. Really bad. Seabird bird. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I, I healed her eyes. I healed her arm. I won them back. Uh, and now, how did you take out Mike?
00:52:48
Speaker
I think you want to hear the boring details. No, I do. That's the point. I bashed his head in. It was ugly. Okay. Cool. So now I'm with a natural 20. You literally can do anything you want. So yeah, brains everywhere. Awesome. Perfect. And so that is then movement to be. Yes, you can move and it, you underestimate my power. Yelling up to Ariana.
00:53:19
Speaker
You were the chosen one. You were my brother, Ariana. How does Ariana respond to these moments? Well, in District 10, we would have never watched Star Wars. It's fair. We're just rich kids, so we actually get TVs. So in my mind, I'm like, oh, I'm fighting words. OK, shit. So OK, where did that altercation slash murder just happen?
00:53:46
Speaker
right uh on the side of the cornucopia side yeah so now i'm 10 feet away just okay so you walk yeah you walk 10 feet away okay no wait i have a question if something is possible but by the way i i'm too far away for ranged weapons and or no too close for range weapons but obviously actually she doesn't have very many weapons okay can you tell me again what was in that parachute for luke
00:54:15
Speaker
It's like a handheld, like it's a dagger with three blades just to be a trident. Gotcha. Melee. So I want to, I guess, okay, no, wait. I don't want to fight anyone. I was going to say, I want to kind of like gauge, but what he's, if he's a threat right now. You've had the role really low insight to know that I don't want to fight anyone. This is where the rest of the thing shouldn't take long. There's only two left, but it's going to take them like another two hours.
00:54:44
Speaker
Is there any possibility or world in which both of us get one? Um, role insight. Okay. 21. From your perspective, from all the things that have happened, from your status, from your district, from all that is within you, you know the best option and the only option
00:55:10
Speaker
is for one of you to live and one of you to die. So does that include all I know in terms of meta knowledge? That includes all that you know in meta knowledge. Okay, so this is a solid don't even try fight. I hope this goes well. I want to take out my binoculars. Oh my god, sure.
00:55:33
Speaker
and chuck them down on his head as hard as I possibly can. Okay. Are you doing this stealthily or are you doing this? I'm not going to be yelling or, no, I'm going to get him like that. So, yeah, uh, go for it. Roll, I will say, yeah, roll a Dex Saturday attack. Not strength, because I'm like... No, Dex is always ranged. Oh, I see. That's 10. 10? You get hit by some binoculars.
00:56:03
Speaker
How? What? Why'd she do that? Don't hurt me. You're the one who threw something at me. Stay back. I wanted to help you. I helped you up there. I know you're gonna use that hide against me. But Lucas, it's just you and me now. You know what this means. That we both win. Yeah, that would be nice. You know the game makers aren't gonna let that happen. Can we? I think... How is that me? Look at the camera. We're pretty clear.
00:56:32
Speaker
However, if Cabernet wants to just try to replay Hunger Games and really put it up here, I might have a way we could both die. As you say that... Persuasion. You... But I'm not the DM, so don't do that. Until he does it. Don't. Something very quickly. What is it? As of right now, you just see something very quickly. What'd you do with that? On the ground or in the air?
00:56:59
Speaker
on the ground and you see this alone area because you're high up it's very far okay look something's coming except i'm not actually laughing in this moment oh okay good good good it's like ah something's coming you're screwed is it behind him i don't know behind you yeah it's it's coming behind me and i i know about it now sure row perception unless you don't believe me yeah unless you don't believe me i i
00:57:29
Speaker
I believe you. Dirty 20. Dirty 20, you know the dogs are coming after you. You know, with a dirty 20, you know they're trying to push you guys together. Right. Oh, then I'll climb up. Okay, roll a strength check. Or a strength check. Okay. Are you helping him up, Ariana? Oh yeah, you make it up. And since you got to also think about an idea, I want to think about an idea to get out of here. Go for it. Roll insight. Insight? Seven. You know the only idea, the only way to do it? Actually, no.
00:57:59
Speaker
You think the best option, the without a doubt option is to get eaten by those dogs? It's very Luke thing. Like, well, easy. I die. Did you say the best options for him to get eaten by the dogs? That's what he thinks is the best option. Jesse says Luke thinks. I think that's all my turn. So Ariana, it's your turn again. So you didn't make it up or you did? No, yeah, he did. Yeah, he did. So Luke, how are you doing?
00:58:30
Speaker
I'm good. How are you? I have better days. Are you all right? I'm just going to make sure like, Oh yeah. There's a lot of danger here. Pretty, um, uh, you know, pretty shaken. That's about it. Are you okay? Yeah. No, I, I think we'll get out of here within six seconds or something. Do you need a snack or something? Do you have some in my bag? I never took off my bag. So why did you throw binoculars at me?
00:58:58
Speaker
Uh, I panicked. So, um, if you're trying to attack me, I think you do have weapons up here. Don't you have weapons up here? Maybe. Do you need some? Well, um, just these look like very dangerous dogs who want to eat somebody. Oh, right. No, no, no. I'm, I'm good to go. Is that the end of her turn?
00:59:23
Speaker
Is it, Dan? She hasn't done anything. So it's up to you. You can end it there or, you know. Like, cause she doesn't know. I'm just going to jump. I don't know. She wants to roll inside or something, but I'm probably not going to say. Okay, Luke, you want to do. Dogs are coming at us fast. And all I can figure is that's going to be one heck of a painful death.
00:59:50
Speaker
Did you say you had any food to give them? To give the dogs? It's not much, just a couple granola bars. We could try that, see if they are satisfied with the granola. Yeah, we could. How determined are you to go home? What a strange question. You don't know? How much I want to go home, rather than being here? Rather than dying.
01:00:16
Speaker
Like I know this is a hectic situation, but like, I feel like that is an easy choice. Here's what I'm suggesting. The game makers are not going to let us win. We could make sure that we don't. Unless we win, but I don't think. No, what I mean is they're not going to let both of us win. Right. So we can make sure they don't win.
01:00:36
Speaker
And if we just have here and the dogs can't get us and then we should be fine right. What are they going to do just let us starve up here. Let us both send something bigger. Master. Great Dan or Clifford. I need to be decisive.
01:00:57
Speaker
From a gameplay perspective, I can't do anything. Exactly. I know. You have to make a decision. I am going to. Sorry. If you just messaging me. Everywhere. I could look anywhere and there'd be cameras there. I'm going to take out my syringe and put it against my arm.
01:01:26
Speaker
I'm not pushing it in. I'm just holding it there right now. Okay. Kind of see what will happen. Okay. Sure. Sure. Are you finished? Sure. That's it. Yeah. Okay. Luke's your turn. What are you doing? Ariana. Just thinking what are you doing? Um, and I'm just going to like start walking closer and be like, okay, I'm going to grab the syringe now. I don't know what the heck you're doing. This is like a grapple, I guess. Okay. So you are going to grab the syringe.
01:01:54
Speaker
I know, like what would that be just to grab the thing? You can't grapple or sleight of hand. Grapple. I don't want to like, I guess sleight of hand is what I'm going for. Thirteen. Thirteen to sleight of hand. Roll perception. I think we're inside one of the two. Is it strength? No, I thought it was, oh yeah, you know what to stop her from doing it. Because I'm not being stealthy about it. Oh, right. Okay. So yeah, roll strength. Me? Yes. Nine. Nine. So you do take strength. Careful with that.
01:02:26
Speaker
Don't, don't, don't touch it. Like what, like what is this? My medicine. Okay. Um, so I'll, I'll like throw the syringe away and then just start like shaking your shoulders and like, what are you doing? We've got to survive this.
01:02:41
Speaker
Just, just to kind of like up the drama and just be like right at like, like almost holding her at the edge over the dogs and be like, what are you doing? This is insane. Do I, so do I think he's trying to throw me out? You threw this wrench off the edge. Yeah, he threw it out. If either of us was going to have a painless death, that was the only way. It's not 20 medicine. Medicine for what?
01:03:10
Speaker
just to know that it isn't her. Like she doesn't need this to survive. No, it was a poison. It was a lethal dose or something. Very clearly. I just, I don't know how dumb I am. Yes. So go inside, area the TV is going to throw you off. Oh, yeah. There's no, there's nothing I'm rolling. I mean, are you doing deception? Are you trying to escape?
01:03:30
Speaker
No one. There's no like truth. Are you being odd? Like you could like wink at me or something. You're being obvious that like this is just for show or if you're genuine. Oh yeah. If there was something for that. You could do that and that would help with the insight. What did you roll? Oh, Nat 20. Nat 20. Yeah. You know he's just doing it for show. I know that he's just doing it for show. Okay. Okay. And then I'm going to go like, I start to realize I'm like, ah, don't throw me off. I'll, I'll cut you.
01:04:00
Speaker
I'm sorry, you mispronounced kill. I didn't say kill, I said. Where are the dogs at this point?

Resolution and Consequences

01:04:11
Speaker
They are circling. They're on, okay. They are circling. It's been a long day. Yeah, we're just like, yeah it has.
01:04:26
Speaker
This is like the last place I would want to be. Where's our knife? You don't know, do you? I didn't tell you about Virgo. What? I didn't tell you about Virgo, did I? Who's Virgo?
01:04:36
Speaker
Oh, yeah. He was supposed to be here in my place, which is why I'm like 21 and just starting into this. But he was originally going to and then he started developing like Tourette's. So I just said I'd take his place if he didn't feel comfortable doing this game. Got you. So I had an out from here. How'd you get in here? No, 10 hours later. Is he just still shaking me over the edge? I don't know.
01:05:04
Speaker
Are you still shaking her after like that? Well, I guess I'm still well I probably stop like shaking and just be more like trying to look intimidating and just slowly like When we're closer the dogs Okay, I want you to roll strength Sorry, what's your own to a three three so you roll natural one?
01:05:28
Speaker
No, I'd roll a two plus two. Oh, I guess I have so four. Okay. So you rolled a four. So he is holding you over this edge. He stopped shaking you, but he's holding you over this edge. Is he like, am I suspended or am I? I would say you're probably like Lee, like your feet are kind of on it. Cause if I'm like kind of barely holding, I'd be grabbing onto him too. Not just like, Ooh. Sure. But, um, he, he can't hold you up anymore. So I need a strength saver. Okay. For me.
01:05:58
Speaker
Yes. Nat 20. Natural 20. Okay, I have a proposition for you. It's what I wanted. Ariana, you have a natural 20. I will say you can do one of two things. You obviously, you're safe either way. Now, actually three things. I'll do three things. So you can
01:06:18
Speaker
Ariana got really excited and started moving close. Now that AC is on, I can't hear Jesse as well. Right, so I'll turn it up. So can you hear me now? Yes, that's great. Okay, great. So what I'm going to say is you have three options.
01:06:35
Speaker
Do you live no matter what? So the first option, always option, he drops you, you kind of land and catch yourself before you even like lean over. But like your feet kind of like land. On the cornucopia. Yeah, on the cornucopia. And you kind of like are able to push yourself to like the front of your feet. Another option, same thing-ish, but you push Luke off.
01:07:04
Speaker
in the process. The other third option is you begin to fall, you grab Luke, you kind of pull him with you. Last second, you grab onto the edge. So you're hanging onto Cardicopia, Luke still falls. He falls? Yeah. Wow. Three options. So one, I get back up or both still say,
01:07:27
Speaker
He's for debating really hard about the only choice between me dying and me living. Two, I push him off. Three, he falls off, but it was more of an accident. I see. Okay. I'm going to jump back up and regain my balance. And is it my turn?
01:07:49
Speaker
Uh, yes. Okay. Are we in initiative? Just curious because the dog, okay. Oh, right. Well, I mean, the dogs aren't, they're just scratching up thing. They can't really climb it. So, you know, I'm waiting basically to see if either one, any of you fall or what? I see. So yes, you were both still in initiative. Yes. Okay. I'll just be like, ah, darn it. I've foiled. I was like, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to drop you. People, what do we do? What else do I have?
01:08:18
Speaker
Maybe we should just move closer to the center and just be like battling it out in the middle instead of being like over dogs. It was about a decision of my part. I'm sorry. Are we completely surrounded by dogs? Yes. How many are there? Completely surrounded. So probably like eight or nine. You see all of our eyes in there. Yeah. So 10, 22, 22, 22 dogs.
01:08:47
Speaker
I thought it wanted to be 22, but we're going to be accurate. 22. Wow. I kind of want to just sit down and catch my breath. Shoot. OK. I'll lay down and just be like, wow, look at that constant. Aren't the stars beautiful tonight? And look right there. Virgo. I just have to remind people every single time. OK. Is that Dan, do you turn? Ariana? Yeah.
01:09:17
Speaker
That's your turn. Okay. Oh, good. Okay. Luke, it's your turn. Okay. That's fine. Time passes. You guys are still being surrounded by dogs. Um, role perception. Oh, I have an idea. Okay. Sorry, and I'll do the... Okay. Role perception. 17. Six. Hmm. You, Ariana, notice that the fireballs headed directly towards you. Okay. And you also notice that the dogs are dissipating. They're dissipating? Yeah.
01:09:46
Speaker
Okay. Is it one fireball is headed to me or there are fireballs in our general direction? There are fireballs headed to your direction. Okay. So they're going to kill both of us? Depends. So the dogs are running away now though. They're no longer. Dogs are running away. Cornucopia? Yeah.

Stargazing and Fireball Chaos

01:10:04
Speaker
Okay. Wait, is it Luke's turn still? No, it's your turn. He said, yep. It's the end of his turn. We were just start gazing for a while. Exactly.
01:10:15
Speaker
Fireball gazing, uh, Luke, incoming. But the dogs are, they're leaving. Here's what I say we do. Jump down, both of us, and we gotta grab the syringe and run. Are we just not grab the syringe? Roll a deck save, both of you. Ah, dang it. Luke with disadvantage because you didn't see Fireball. I got four.
01:10:44
Speaker
attempts probably no that's fine yeah so just stick to has a larger bonus on dexterity oh true so luke you could like ariana goes fireball this is my plan and then as she says that the fireball literally just
01:11:05
Speaker
It's behind her. You're able to jump at that moment. Uh, so you jump off the cornucopia and the best. No, you get blasted off. I get blasted off for eight damage. Okay.
01:11:22
Speaker
And I would say different directions. So one of you on the left, one of you on the right. Yeah, but I'm going to run at it. And be like, ah, you're OK. As you run, Luke, you will see more fireballs coming. Did I get a chance to mention the syringe? Is that what I was saying? Oh, yeah. You said, I think we need to run with the syringe and then bam.
01:11:45
Speaker
Which I guess would be a free action, right? If I go around the other way and grab the syringe. So you're gonna go get the syringe and not hurt? No, I'm gonna go with her. I was like, I was thinking it was a free action, but no, I'd have to search for it. Did I fall on the same side that you threw it? No, you fell on the opposite side then I threw it. From my perspective anyway. He went down the side where he threw it. So you're gonna go straight to Ariana.
01:12:11
Speaker
Yeah, I don't know if she's paralyzed or something, but are you okay? Are you going to talk? Okay, I'm going to need another deck save. For talking? There's fireballs coming at you. If I'm just checking... Can I walk? Yeah, I would say, like I said, it's not 10 feet, so you don't get any damage from the fall. That's not disadvantage, right? No, no, not disadvantage. 14. Okay, Ariana, I need another deck save. Oh, for deck save. 19. 19.
01:12:40
Speaker
Okay, so you guys see that one, you basically get out of the way. You see another three that are still like within seconds. Okay, is it my turn? Like, you know, do an action to make sure she okay? I mean, no, you can't do that. There's no time to do that. But we got to go head for the lake. It's like, I'll even like support her. She's if she if she has to live or something. No, no, she's fine. She just got hit by the explosion. But
01:13:10
Speaker
I'm not dead. Yet. Yet. Okay, so you head to the lake and I'm gonna just roll. Oh my goodness! I'm gonna need a dexane, but very, very, very high DC. 19. 19, perfect. Nice. So, oh man. Luke to tell me how he gets hit by this fireball and Ariana does not.
01:13:38
Speaker
All right, to keep up with continuity, I see the fireball and I was like, oh no, the fireball. And I like push, I don't know, I don't know the way it was like, no. And so then you get hit by this fireball burnt to a crisp, completely gone. If you really want my like, I'm sorry, Virgo.
01:13:56
Speaker
I'm on the ground. I turn back and there's the glow of the fireballs. My face is covered in dirt and sweat. The night light and ash and the camera zooms in on my face and I just look dead inside.
