Introduction and Cast
00:00:09
Speaker
D20 Radio, your game is roll.
00:00:48
Speaker
Hello and welcome to Eberron or Newton actual play podcast set in the Eberron campaign setting I'm your game master Eric. I'm Philip.
Recap and Assassination Reflections
00:00:54
Speaker
I'm Trevor. I'm Randy. I'm Jeff and welcome to another another episode Gentlemen, what happened last time? I don't know cuz I was told not to listen Yeah, this is when it occurs to me that the fact that you're gonna have them recap is going to oh, that's fine We just wanted your response on it
00:01:12
Speaker
Trevor, what happened last time? We went to a train station. And? Why are you being coy about it? Just saying. And killed my dad. Yeah, there it is. OK. Calvary is dead. Long live Calvary. So we just did it. Yeah, radar just decided to do it. Jeff rolled three triumphs, and I asked Trevor if he thought it would be narratively satisfying to have Calvary just show up. Yeah. Wow. And it was pretty satisfying.
00:01:39
Speaker
No, just goofed him up real bad. Stabbed him in the chest and then stepped on the dagger while he laid on the ground. Did you leave your dagger in him? No, I spent a story point to say it was a Tharani dagger.
00:01:52
Speaker
Thank you. While Phaidon and Leoric... I'm just so proud of him telling this story to Philip. My D&D kid, my D&D dad talking it up. Trevor thought about consequences. While Phaidon and Leoric just stood by and watched.
00:02:10
Speaker
Yeah. Totally. And I was invisible. Am I to understand then
Discussion on Assassination Involvement
00:02:14
Speaker
that Verla's brother assisted you in the assassination of? Yes. Is Verla's brother like a criminal? He's a bounty hunter. He's like a bounty hunter. And Verla's brother was the visible one, I think. Good. Oh, good. So. Did anything else happen? That was pretty much the crux of it. We did a lot of dumb stuff. We gooped.
00:02:34
Speaker
a lot because it was us. We kind of hand-waved the the denouement of that because with like the gem and all that kind of stuff but presumably Leoric would have brought that back to Elderin for same keeping. Leoric was very clear that he wanted to keep it. Well Leoric's under my purview again. I think Baden's mindset was I don't really like this guy because my sister but I'm being paid for a job. Yeah. I'm gonna take care of the job.
Aboard the Sky Ship in Sharn
00:03:03
Speaker
What happened last time, last time? Because Trevor needs a recap. Are you recapped on the reviewed form? We put a boat in the sky! And it went to hell! It's gone wrong already. Now we're in a bad place. And I woke up in a fridge. Yup. Again. Yeah, you all are in dollar.
00:03:27
Speaker
flying on the four sails. And you have a ship rapidly approaching you all. And on the underneath side of the ship, you have Eris and a Aryan celestial that she accidentally summoned when she drew the runes. The triumph result, right? It was like five advantage. That's where that came from. An extraplanar ally. There's no real reason for him to be here, except for that. He is very cute. Eris also.
00:03:57
Speaker
Everyone else is up on deck. Yeah, none of us are really well-rounded. Raynard is in the ship, sticking his head out of a porthole. Wait, why is Ray- Wait, how did Raynard get into the ship? At the end of the episode, I remember Raynard sticking his head out, looking around, and he's like, you take a nap in the walking. Oh, it turns out he's been here the whole time. I was exhausted. Daddy killing is hard.
00:04:18
Speaker
Gotta sleep it off in the walk, kid. Post-nap patricide. Okay. Let's pick up where we left off. Normal things. Did we see anything else? You are still in the city of Sharn. It is just a dead version of it. Some of the towers are missing sections, and there are sky cabs, but they're very slowly listing across the sky. And they charge even more. Right.
00:04:43
Speaker
Is my speeder still parked where I left it? Is Ace's speeder still parked where he left? Ace left because he was like, you all might get attacked by undead pirates. I don't want to be here after getting like the 12th degree, but... Yeah, he still has no idea. Sana is here, Ulfin's here, and the Angel friend.
Surreal Journey to Dolor
00:05:04
Speaker
Yeah, that's, if anybody wants to give me a check to, there's more that you can tell about your current situation if you want to give me a check. I will accept, tell me what you want to try and roll, and I'll tell you if I accept it or not. Okay, question, sorry real quick. Yeah. The wounds that I occurred. You have taken a rest, so you recover one wound in all your strength.
00:05:27
Speaker
Will you remind me of the visual appearance of this angelic person who exists? He is a male presenting long auburn hair and is dressed like you would think an angel would be dressed, but a bit more druidic and primal earth tones.
00:05:52
Speaker
Sorry. That kind of thing. Like, that is their appearance and their auburn hair and olive skin.
00:06:02
Speaker
Not a super muscular build, and there is a staff strapped to their back that Aeris would pretty easily recognize as a magical focus. But they have wings. They're feathered, but they're more like hawk coloring than angelic white. Cool. But can they fly?
00:06:24
Speaker
I assume they are flying. They're not penguinists. If they're conversing with Aerys while she's standing upside down on the bottom of the ship, I assume that they are flying. They're holding on to the ship. They're holding on to the big Orykalkum plate, or the plate that Aerys carved the rune into that they emerged from. Why are you here? I was hoping you could tell me that. Why are we here? Same answer to your question. What are you doing? You don't sound like an angel.
00:06:55
Speaker
That's, that is rude. What does rain just sound like? That's fair. Alright. Where are we? Are you from here? Well, where is here and I'll tell you. He didn't tell you last time that you're in Dolan. Oh, no. Zinvaya, are you here? Are you dead? Did you die? Fair.
00:07:23
Speaker
This ship seems fun to be here. This ship does not belong here. Okay, then no. I didn't, well, I just did a lot of magic. And I suppose there was a non-zero chance that we all died because of it. Should communicate around? Yeah. What? But I don't remember dying.
00:07:49
Speaker
Do people remember dying? That depends on the nature of your deaths. If you are stabbed in the front, then yes. Stabbed in the back, no. So if magic electrocuted us all to death. So my dad really remembers it. We would know it. Probably. Do you feel dead? Okay, dead. We would not. What does dead feel like? A general sense of unwee and listlessness and just dead would feel dead.
Preparing for Pirate Encounter
00:08:20
Speaker
I'm gonna unpack that later. What are you all doing up on the deck? Man, I don't know. I'm staring. At the end of the last episode, Ophen chuckled and called this very clever, that the dead don't come to him, he comes to the dead. Milo looks around, Milo looks around, and I don't think this is right, but I know one thing for certain, it is not my fault.
00:08:49
Speaker
And as you all are talking, Sonic comes up on deck and she is put on the Ghost Tiger outfit. She's putting the mask on as she comes up on deck.
00:09:00
Speaker
Does anybody want to make a check to learn more about your surroundings or are we good? The whole knowledge section of my character sheet is a string, a single green die. Perception would also work. That's what I want to do. For perception, the difficulty is going to be three purple. Knowledge lore would only be two purple. How about adventuring? Adventuring, I would do two purple.
00:09:27
Speaker
You also have story points to spend. And listeners, you can enjoy the sound of our brand new table that we're recording on. It's got little grooves that are holding my dice. And my watch for that. And my phone.
00:09:45
Speaker
Okay, on Knowledge Adventuring, I have just three success. Three success? Okay, you Eris, as you look around as you're speaking to this angelic figure, you see the airship is, it's floating through the air. That is factual. Yes! But glimpses of
00:10:07
Speaker
think of the right you know when they're trying to indicate a wind flow in video games like the really transparent line flowy lines it's that kind of thing that the airship seems to be or the for sale seems to be coasting on it's like a magical so duller is like current animated and we can see the lines the art style of duller yes Studio Ghibli yes yes but yeah it's an arcane current of some kind are you so I ended up with advantage what would you like to do with it okay
00:10:36
Speaker
No, I do because we're coming straight in for a thing. I'll be coming straight in. I'm not coming straight in for him. We've been on this boat. We're coming straight for being on the boat, right? Yeah, but what did you do on the boat? I don't know. Who knows? You made a real attempt to spell maneuver at some point between now and the last. Fair enough. Let's lord. Okay. For those.
00:10:57
Speaker
got three of those what are those ones are those those those cancel the advantage so okay good you successful threat to success in the threat yes I've reported strain Milo because freaking out with the to success you also notice the arcane current but additionally Milo specifically
00:11:13
Speaker
You still if you recall last time you rolled a despair that like when you were using your when you I think we're investigating aces something but there it feels like something was like yes, yes your star a little bit conceptually you with your knowledge lore the smoke coming out of your scar is a little bit less transparent and
00:11:38
Speaker
a little bit more opaque, like it's more substantial here, if that makes sense. But you also notice the arcane current, and just by virtue of your vantage point, yeah, you see a large pirate ship headed right at you all. And with the two, yeah, and now you got, yeah, that's it.
00:12:01
Speaker
Hob pirate ship headed straight at us. And you see a flag flying off the mast with a skull with a bronze beard that matches the curse tattoo that you saw on Ulfin's forearm. And Ulfin also look... No mustin' about. There's gonna be so much mustin' about. And then Milo shouts. He's gonna look like they're ready to must. Milo shouts off the side.
00:12:32
Speaker
Pirate... oh boy, we got a pirate ship headed our way. Pirate ship? Vi? Is there ghost pirates? Oh, that's so cool. I get it. It wasn't me. I didn't do it. It wasn't my fault. I certainly know it wasn't mine. Radar, what are you doing?
00:12:56
Speaker
Yeah, we don't know. He's in the dining room, right? Yeah. Yeah. But you looked
Battle Against Skeletal Pirates
00:13:00
Speaker
at the porthole. You saw a gray wasteland. I think I just started making a sandwich. This isn't my deal. I'm not going to get involved in this. Wait for someone to fill you in. I've got my own stuff. You're talking from above. And outside. And outside. I think Raynard just walks outside and just accepts that this is what we're doing now. Yeah, he doesn't walk on the bottom door before sales.
00:13:25
Speaker
Yeah, you all see Raynard come up, bewildered, a little sleepy in the eyes. What? Raynard? In his brand new armor. How did you get here? When did you get here? Well, I've been... I've just been taking a nap in the walk-in and this is... What? Get your bow. Okay, you all basically have time to do one act of preparation before we need initiative. So what are you all doing with the pirate ship rapidly approaching?
00:13:54
Speaker
Milo wants to throw a barrier on his friends that are close by.
00:14:18
Speaker
Two Poipole. All right. No, wait. Easy is one. And an additional target. So that's it. Check is easy. To do the additional target thing, you need to add another purple, I believe. Jeff, you have the Genesis Magic Calculator pull-up. I do. Which one are we doing? Barrier? Barrier. What's his skill? Arcane. Yeah. Additional target is going to be two purple. So add two more purple. Oh, two total. Two total. OK. OK.
00:14:48
Speaker
Would you like to fill up the story point? Um... Oh well. We got some. Alright. So that's two targets. Now does this... Am I just naturally included and the difficulty gets two more? Who are you targeting with the victory? I'm gonna target Hop and Olfen. Okay. The additional target...
00:15:09
Speaker
It opens up the opportunity to where you target one creature, right? And then for every advantage that you roll, you get to target it differently. This says reduce incoming damage by one plus one for every two advantage. Additional targets just... Oh sorry, yeah, it may spend each advantage. So you still need to target one creature, but it can spend each advantage too.
00:15:33
Speaker
advantage there. Although those give us threat. Three, four, that looks like five success. Two advantage. And two advantage. Okay, so you are going to be blocking two points of it. It's one for every two. One plus one for every two. Okay, three points of incoming damage for Hob and then who else are you targeting? I have seven points of damage already.
00:15:59
Speaker
You all will block three incoming points of damage any time you take damage. I guess I'd like to not be dangling off the bottom of the ship while we get into combat. I think we should go... Why are you holding on? Can't you fly? I was startled when I teleported into the realm of the dead. But yes, I can fly.
00:16:22
Speaker
Okay. I can't. So... Would you like me to carry you? No. Are angels not dead too? No. Angels are just celestial beings. No. Okay. Then I will see you up there. Okay. You managed to climb up. Right. Okay. What are you co- My name is Claudio. Claudio. Yes. Okay.
00:16:50
Speaker
So Eris will scramble up the side. So as Eris begins to climb up- Much in duller is definitely horror. Yeah. Horror mood. Claudio pushes off his wings flap and he- And they don't work in duller. Great use of five advantage, idiot. He comes flying up and you all see a angel land on the deck amongst you all. Oh, hello. Okay! I met your friend down below.
00:17:19
Speaker
I think how often is this one? It'll look like one. I know that's looks like a half-era coca. Is our friend still down there and okay? She is climbing up now. Oh, there she is. Okay. All right. So this is a dream. Okay. Eris friend, friend or foe? I don't know yet. It's called Claudio. Claudio.
00:17:46
Speaker
Hello. Come here, we have pirates coming. So I've been talked. He says he's an angel, but he doesn't sound like one. Once again, I do not know what an angel is supposed to sound like. Well, my pressing question is, will you assist us with what's about to happen? If it helps me get out of here, then sure. And most certainly should help us get out of here, yes. We'll try to help you get out of here and help us about that. I have no idea what will get out of here after we do that.
00:18:13
Speaker
I'm going to do something I always forget to do. I can cast Augment on myself before a battle, so I'm going to try to cast Haste on myself to get a second free maneuver. And she does it, barely, with one success, one threat. We'll just pass a setback die to the next rollmate.
00:18:34
Speaker
or take a step back on your initiative role, since I think the next role made is going to be initiative. Okay, so here's my question. What is the base of this spell is increased ability of any skill checks by one? Yep. Does that mean I should? You add a green. Add a green to everything. That's what I thought that meant. Yep. I should have been doing this.
00:18:53
Speaker
I just, it's the very first talent, it's the one he gave me when I made the character, and I just forgot I had it. So it is concentration, so because you did haste, one of those maneuvers will be to keep it going. Right. Okay. Raynard, anything mechanical you want to do with verse before the battle starts? What can I do with verse? You can do augment like... Poetry, singlet, song. Like Jeff just did, you can... Heal yourself. Yep, you can heal yourself. Oh, maybe I should do that. Yeah, let's do that. Okay. Verse. I got it.
00:19:23
Speaker
Four yellers and a green. And the difficulty for healing... Sorry, I'm pulling it up. And divine still? No. In a computer mode. Okay, it's just easy difficulty. One purple. Would you like to flip the story point to upgrade? Nah. Okay.
00:19:46
Speaker
I did it. So that is... Three success, three advantage. So you're going to heal three wound and you strain. I don't have any strain. Well you just took two for casting a spell so now you didn't. Yep. Oh no. You broke it. No, no, don't do that. No. Okay, Eris. What would you like to do? Oh, I still get to do something. Yeah.
00:20:14
Speaker
Oh, okay. Sorry, I wasn't thinking about it like I thought my movement was my thang. I don't, real quick, I don't know, this, boom. I don't know if this has been updated, taken in, my new armor. What does it do? What do I need to tell you? What is, what am new in armor? It adds one to your soak. Okay, cool. So my soak's three now. So why would I have to pause just so I'm clear on what I just cast for myself?
00:20:45
Speaker
The second maneuver that I got, I have to spin. If I want to do it again the next team, I've got to spin that second. So really, this is a one-time guy, and I wasn't really thinking about it correctly. What do you mean? If I want to actually take advantage of the second maneuver, I'm going to lose this spell at that point. I want to take a second free maneuver to aim instead of keep going. Correct. And I just didn't read those concentrations, so I just wanted to get the... Yeah.
00:21:06
Speaker
Cut it all out. I'm smart. But it means you're augmented and you don't lose your maneuver on. Concentrate. You're still good at the benefits of augmented. Normally you'd have to suffer two strain every round if you wanted to stay augmented, which is also a bonus. Correct. May I spend a story point, Eric, to declare that Ulfin capped some of the ships
00:21:31
Speaker
Armament as part of the decor of the for sales like Cracker Barrel and then use my action to attempt to Arm a cannon. Yeah, essentially we Turn it back into a weapon from a Chachki. Yeah, sure. Okay Yeah, Eris runs over to one of the guns of the ship or whatever equivalent there are to this that's I don't know it's got like the
00:22:01
Speaker
It's like at the host station and it's got the sign for either seat yourself or please wait to be seated like we flipped around. And so she yanks that off and tosses it across the room and starts trying to clear out whatever he had done to make it not a weapon anymore. Love it. So give me mechanics. When I gave you a story point to clear this existed.
00:22:28
Speaker
But give it back. Because I'm a human. Okay. What's the difficulty? This hasn't been used in a very long time. Let's do hard difficulty. Sure. And I'm going to put a story point to upgrade one of those to a red. Hard as three, right? Yes. So two purple, one red. Alright.
00:22:53
Speaker
Oh no. Oh, fun. I've succeeded. So these, the success failure part of that cancels each other out and this eats that one. Okay. So I've succeeded. So I've got.
00:23:04
Speaker
Success and three advantage plus a triumph and despair. Okay so You are confident that yeah, you've got this thing back in functioning order and there's even like a little pile of cannonballs right next to it. Yeah the It's a vehicle weapon. So it's gonna be on a vehicle scale of damage. So it's breach to
00:23:34
Speaker
because it's a cannon which means Pierce 20 damage is we'll do 20 base damage to a person
00:23:46
Speaker
Yeah, but is this the way this is like our thing but but the thing with vehicle is a slow firing. Yeah, slow firing. So you have to spend a prepare one prepare prepare. Yeah, prepare one blast 12.
00:24:05
Speaker
Is it so big that Hobb can't hold it pressed against his shoulder like a giant rifle? You could certainly try. I want to. I'm very strong and I'm augmented. And there's some aspect about vehicle weaponry when you're trying to target silhouette one creatures that makes it... To appoint me to the appropriate book, I'll look it up between now and when my turn is. I think it... So I'd like to spend my triumph. By saying that... Okay. Obviously...
00:24:36
Speaker
whatever magic Eris has been messing with recently is interacting with the world around her in some weird ways. Yeah. And Eris doesn't ever just fix something. So she's as she's working to clear out the safety mechanisms of it and
00:24:54
Speaker
refit it into an actual cannon. She's also scrolling runes all along the
Magic and Strategy Challenges
00:25:01
Speaker
barrel of the cannon. And in doing so, she has inadvertently
00:25:10
Speaker
called up the spirit of one of Ulfin's old crew, okay? Having brought the ship into Dolor, who's going to help man the cannon. He's going to help with the loading of the cannon. Okay. A guy who knows what he's doing. Yes. Yes. A member of the gun crew of this cannon. A competent technique. The name of this cannon is etched along the side of it and Eris like messes with that with her magic and it summons the spirit of one of the gun crew of this cannon, the cannon who's going to help manage the loading of the cannon.
00:25:39
Speaker
What's their name? Oh, yeah, that's unsurprisingly. Duck Plinko. His name is Duck Plinko, I accept. That's a good pirate name. If that makes a difference, Ferris will lose his mind if he's so happy. OK, so yeah, this slightly transparent figure, the energies of Dolor coalesce as Eris is messing with this cannon. And you often, like, duck?
00:26:09
Speaker
Captain? Wha-what's going on? Bronzebeard's back! Oh no. Okay. We're manning a gun. Alright. Aye, my name's Tuck.
00:26:23
Speaker
Aris. Nice to meet Aris. And Duck begins grabbing a cannonball and putting it into Canada. Duck starts swinging the gun into position. Claudio, is your friend a necromancer? She just conjures a ghost? I didn't think she was. To be honest, she's full of surprises. Okay, the despair.
00:26:43
Speaker
Oh, yes. Oh, no. I know what you're talking about, Eric. You can do anything you want to me. You just gave me duck plinko. You all begin having been here for a handful of minutes now to feel
00:26:54
Speaker
the ennui of Dolor begin to press upon your spirits as your will to fight and press on wanes a bit. So, for each round, once we get into the combat, that you all have been in Dolor, you will add one threat to the result of your check.
00:27:21
Speaker
Okay. Is that untouchable? If we have a talent that reduces things or anything like that? At an advantage it can offset it. Sure, of course that, but yeah. Oh, you're asking if you have something that allows you to remove threat from a role? I feel like I do, but it may just be, it may be something else. I'm gonna look at it again. I have three advantage. Okay. What I would like is that the modification that Eris is making as she goes is in order to
00:27:51
Speaker
make this a weapon she knows how to trigger correctly. Because Gunnery is obviously not a skill in Aerys' Warhouse. And so either... I'll pitch this to you how you'd like to take it. Sure. Either Aerys would...
00:28:10
Speaker
Either you let me use this with the ranged skill or just allow me at least to use Eris's precision skill that lets me use cunning instead of agility. Gotcha. Eris is gone. I would allow the precision skill to where you can use your cunning instead of agility for a gunnery check. Sold. Okay. That's everyone. Let's roll initiative. Skill. This is going to be vigilance.
00:28:55
Speaker
Vigilance is willpower-based, right? Okay, so, for the listeners, the initiative order is NPC, PC PC, NPC, PC, NPC, NPC, NPC, NPC, then PC PC PC. Those are our three rules? The last three there. Open Rainard and Milo, okay. Wow. Failure. But, because of the nature of the game, you all can take whatever.
00:29:10
Speaker
I'm not good at it. Yeah, maybe if you're cooler we get the real cool zone to have.
00:29:23
Speaker
but the first NPC slot is going to be so the ship at this point is we'll say um extreme ranger way like it's far but
00:29:38
Speaker
Or we'll say long range. Long range away. You see a... They look lichesque, tight, undead skin stretched across a very skinny frame floating above the deck. And they have a long staff that they swirl around and you see the energies of Dolor coalescing. And they point it at... Milo. You're giving off some weird vibes. This is going to be...
00:30:06
Speaker
can't even see me I'm letting you know we got the blue mode I might have I might have that does the color change in dollar is it white now like the new boat it's more dense for sure
00:30:19
Speaker
Okay, and they will aim with a maneuver. This is their pool. Looks real fun. It's a lot of failure though. Yeah, they failed. Oh wow. The three advantage. You see a beam of sickly green energy fly at you Milo and it hits the deck right by your feet and you see the wood rot.
00:30:41
Speaker
a little bit. Very clearly necrotic energy. With the three advantage they're going to pass an upgrade to the next check that somebody makes. That is it for their turn. PC slot. I'd love to shoot the cannon at that person. Okay. I want to know what happened. Me too. Did you look up the rules for targeting? The mixed vehicle and personal combat description is unhelpful because it tells us that
00:31:08
Speaker
people inside the vehicle operate according to vehicular combat and people outside the vehicle operate according to personal combat which does not
00:31:18
Speaker
really help in this particular situation. I have stats for a three-masted frigate, but that doesn't necessarily apply to shooting at... If I recall in the Star Wars rules, it was adding a setback for each silhouette lower
00:31:40
Speaker
or higher, because shooting a bow and arrow at a giant ship is going to be easier than a ship cannon hitting a single person running. If you want to try to hit this individual with the vehicle or weapon, it's going to be adding their silhouette one. This ship would be, what's the frigate silhouette listed there? Frigate silhouette is five. Five. Four, seven. Yeah.
00:32:07
Speaker
It makes sense, it's just funny to think about. So it'd be force it back to target that person. Now, I will say you could do a called shot with it to hit the ship in their general area with just the two set back, but they would only really be subject to the blast damage if you trigger it, if that makes sense. Does Duck get his own slot or is he assisting Aerys in blasting this cannon? You can have an upgrade because of Duck's assistance. Okay. Rack that ship.
00:32:37
Speaker
that is of course the other option is I can just try and blow their ship apart yeah that seems like a good job for a cannon okay yeah you know what it's like if the job does if that's the case and what size they got if they're like a frigate the yeah they can't get much closer if they don't have a boat
00:32:57
Speaker
The cannons listed on a three-masted frigate in this game, in this book, are substantially more modest. Oh yeah? How much more modest? And understandably so. Don't tell him! Because what you have described will destroy their ship in a very quick order. Gotcha. The hit threshold with three-masted frigate is 60. Oh, okay. Or that's the whole trauma threshold. A 24-pounder cannon, which is the big guns.
00:33:22
Speaker
has a damage of 6. 6 instead of 20. Gotcha. And does not describe itself as having a damage. Because if you hit an individual, you multiply it by 10. So it would be 60 damage to a person. 6 to a vehicle. Now I'm remembering. So yes, 200 damage to an individual is a bit ridiculous. Once we remember the rules, they make a lot of sense. Good job, Sam.
00:33:44
Speaker
So use these stats. Yes. Use those stats. Use these stats and our ship and their ship are equivalent three-masted frigates for our purposes. Yes. Cool. Then I'm going to shoot their ship. Sure. Why not? Do that. Okay. Boom. Yes. Now all the Genesis fans that heard me give the stats for that cannon earlier that freaked out can calm down. I was so ready to anonymously write stuff and unread it about it.
00:34:11
Speaker
An otherwise great podcast ruined ridiculous canon stats. Okay. Got the assistance of duck upgrading one. I am going to focus intensely. Okay. Pop a blowboe. Which will allow me to upgrade.
00:34:40
Speaker
again in exchange for a strain. Yes. And that's it. What's our range? Long. Okay. And I have my goggles on, which assist me in all cunning-based checks, and this is a cunning-based check. And go and upgrade. Of course. Of course.
00:35:09
Speaker
It sounds like a good thing, but it's not. Yeah, it's not. The difficulty upgrade, the difficulty is what Eric didn't say. He just said upgrade, so I guess that left me the choice. Duck gate to the upgrade. So yeah, Duck is loading, and then doing all the pirate-like, aim! Higher! I'm in command here, Duck. Fire when I want to. Higher or fire? What was it? It's fire, but I do it in my pirate place. Okay, so those cancel, these cancel.
00:35:39
Speaker
And that becomes just that. I have struck the ship. Yes, array. A lot of advantage. A lot of advantage, yes. Okay, we're dealing seven damage to the ship. Okay. Bless its armor of three. So their ship has taken four damage. But also, I can crit. Okay. Which is a whole different table. It is, I've got it right here. I can crit.
00:36:08
Speaker
And yes, there is no blast on this. So that doesn't matter. Yeah. That's not a lot.
00:36:19
Speaker
The vehicle suffers three system strain and, oh, that's not bad at all, it's pilot and each occupant suffer three strain. Never mind. Bet you wish that crew was smaller now. I retract my statement about 18 being better. Oh my gosh, three strain. That's gotta pass somebody out, right?
00:36:43
Speaker
He freaked him out. Here comes a cannonball. Kaboom. The look on Eric's face was, oh my gosh, there's so many creatures on this ship. So much bookkeeping. Big encounters. It could have been a one man crew. Okay. Everybody suffered three strain as the ship rocks. And yeah, that's a direct hit. I just shot a ghost ship with a cannon. Good job. That was great.
00:37:12
Speaker
Yes. Yeah! Own up the next one! Where'd your pirate accent go? It's only when I'm calling for the fire. Oh, okay. Okay, PC slot. You can probably do more than anyone else right now, so... I'll tell you guys, whenever my turn is, I'm just gonna cast Bodyguard on Milo, because he wanted to get buried. Okay, the guy that tried to smack Milo, is there anybody next to him? Now that the ship is getting closer, giving Wale the land, there are...
00:37:42
Speaker
32 figures on. What if you can't count that high? Rainard. Then it would be 20 because you run out of fingers. Okay. 20 and some. So they need to count knuckles. Milo. Yes. They are preparing for boarding so they are getting ready. Swords are out. That kind of thing. Milo picks one of them out.
00:38:05
Speaker
What, like the necromancer or? No, whoever's next, the closest to him. Okay, there's a minion group next to him. Alright, that's where Milo's aiming at. Okay. Because since they haven't acted yet, I'm gonna do a quick strike so I get a boost. Okay. And I'm gonna flip a story point. I guess I need to do that now. If I hit, there's an additional four damage. Okay.
00:38:34
Speaker
that's my lucky strike now i want to milo takes his wand and kind of spins it around and this light a disc of black but it's got like a glowing aura around it flies out towards this minion group and it has a blast effect so that makes instead of one two anything else i need to add
00:39:03
Speaker
Doesn't your, um, stool leg gives you blast for free though, right? My what? Your wand, that's the leg of the stool. I didn't think so. I could have sworn that was the property of it is you got blast for free. Or is it burn for free? Oh, it may be black. No, you're black. It is blast. Okay. You're right. So it just goes back to one difficulty. All right.
00:39:33
Speaker
The blast was inside of you all along. But it's the success. There's three success. One of them is canceled. But you get one from the triumph as well. So that's so three success.
00:39:48
Speaker
and one advantage yes yep and a triumph so you can't trigger the blast you could use the triumph to trigger the blast but you don't have the two advantage to trigger the blast right okay um but how much damage so i want does four so plus three more is seven plus four yep so that when i say it was seven four is eleven and then my intellect is that
00:40:15
Speaker
The four is your intellect. So four plus my wand is three, I believe. So you have three plus the four base damage. Okay, I thought my wand had damage with it. Man, it's been so long since I've blown something out. Is it on your character sheet, your wand? Yeah. Somewhere.
00:40:39
Speaker
What is magic wand? Plus three damage it says. And is blast on there or no? Blast two is the quality. Okay. Plus two damage. So seven, nine, plus four, 13 damage. 13. Blows, but doesn't blast anybody.
00:40:55
Speaker
Two of the skeletons just shatter into bones as this disc hits them from a group and you see the bones float off of the ship and go flying down into the depths of Sharn. Yeah, and the skeletons kind of look around and like you hear jeering and roaring as they begin to claim their swords on their like their armor and stuff preparing to board. Now a triumph.
00:41:18
Speaker
Yep. You could use a Triumph to crit to take out another member of that minion group for free, if you want to keep it simple, or you could do something narrative with it. Can we in some way affect how... Not all of them, obviously, but how efficient wherever that hit and what they saw affects them in some way to make them a little less effective? You could use a Triumph to implement and upgrade the difficulty of...
00:41:48
Speaker
The next check, that is a mechanical use of a trine. Okay, anybody else have any ideas? I'm open to... We could maybe make the cannon more accurate, even somehow. I don't know, Arisa has the feel of this thing after that first shot and she's so upgrade to check for her. You could manifest another crew member to assist with the fire cannon. What do you guys think?
00:42:18
Speaker
Sure. I haven't done any of those things, but yeah. I like having another pirate. Okay. I want to hear the name of this one. I'll let them know what their name is. Fleagle McBride. He said it. I don't know. Fleagle. McDougall.
00:42:44
Speaker
Because all pirates are out. It's a goose switcheroo, and another waterfowl, and another price is right. No, he's a halfling. He's a halfling, and his name is Flegal Twigleaf. Flegal Twigleaf. Alright. Yeah. But once again, the magic of Dolor coalesces as Milo casts his spell, and all of a sudden you all see a halfling kind of face first on the deck, and they look up like,
00:43:18
Speaker
What's happening? Get on the cannons! Hi, Captain! And runs over and starts helping Duckus. Flegel! Eris. Nice to meet ya.
00:43:28
Speaker
and they begin packing the powder and stuff for the cannon, as ducks get you all ready. And so you can have a boost die to the cannon. Sure, he's aiming. He's aiming. Yeah, he's igniting. Okay, that is PC slot in PC slot. So you all see a couple of
00:43:51
Speaker
figures begin to fly across the gap towards you all. So they get medium distance away. They just fall out of the sky. They have to end on a surface. They seem to be two ghostly looking elves that are draped in more long flowing attire, not the armor that you see in the others. So they're not repelled by wings. No, they are just ghostly floating. And the first one is going to target Hob.
00:44:19
Speaker
because Hob is a big'un and with their wailing cry. It's not actually like a banshee shriek, it's a sea chante from wailing.
00:44:39
Speaker
on ranged. Okay, on three all across the board. All right, and the difficulty is medium range. And then are you gonna do the damage math to subtract three? I'll do it. I'll do it to subtract three. And this is there. And I'm gonna flip one to upgrade that.
00:45:13
Speaker
Well, that ain't hit me.
00:45:17
Speaker
as one advantage. I'll take it. They passed a boost because they have one advantage left, right? Oh, that's true. Wow. They will pass an upgrade to the next person, which is the other flying elf. Exact same pool, minus the new stack.
00:45:41
Speaker
That gets me as good? Um, no, actually, Raynard. So Raynard has Defense 1. What did I do? Existed? Yeah, you were there, man. You looked smug. We showed up in their neighborhood. My dad's dying. I'll go, what? To success.
00:46:01
Speaker
So that is going to be... What are the odds of that? It's real convenient. So yeah, just the waves of this shrieking cry pierces your ears, Reynard. This attack has Breach 1, so ignores 10 points of soak. Oh, I don't like that. But it is 2 damage. And he's buried as well. But it ignored 10 points of soak. But you took the damage off the roll, don't you? I thought it improved soak. Look at the warning of barrier.
00:46:31
Speaker
Where is it? There it is. Reduce incoming damage by one plus one for every two, so reduce it. So you take them off the die. So the magical energy surrounding Milo ripples as this whale gets absorbed in, or the magical energy from Milo surrounding you ripples as it absorbs this cry and you take no damage.
00:46:56
Speaker
You're really counting on that new armor. I know. And you use your maneuver to keep the disc. And you use, you took two strain casters. Yes. Okay. Okay. That was a good big finish. You're just gonna make sure he doesn't get hurt right now.
00:47:11
Speaker
Oh, we have not been... Doing the threat. Yeah, you all have not been adding the one threat to your rolls, so we need to remember to do that. That's my bad. You all have only had two rolls. I didn't use two of my advantage, so that would have just cancelled one of them out. Okay. So now we are on to the next PC slot. So we've had Milo go, we've had Eris go. Who would like to go next? You also have three NPC allies. I would like to cover Milo really quickly. Okay. Since we've seen how helpful Barrier can be, I'm gonna... So...
00:47:40
Speaker
I guess it'll be my maneuver, because I don't have anything else to do. One, to keep concentration on my haze. And then the other, yeah, I'm just going to...
00:47:51
Speaker
Suffered, okay, ranks in a talent. If it's tier three, is that three ranks or two ranks? One's base and the next two are? I have purchased it three times. You have purchased it three times. So that would be three ranks. Okay, okay. I just know it's the first one counted. It's green then yellow. Okay, so basically I'm taking three strain and until the end of my next turn, any combat check against Milo is upgraded three times. Wow. Yeah. Okay.
00:48:18
Speaker
Wow, yeah, it's a big deal But he buried a bunch of us and didn't marry himself. So he gets the big cheese from huh? Yeah, and I You could try to throw a cannonball if you want that one of these. Well, I was gonna say is there a
00:48:31
Speaker
They're close enough I could throw it with some difficulty, right? They're medium? Yeah. Okay, so that's what? Too great? Is there a harpoon on the wall? Is there a harpoon on the wall? It would be too purple difficulty to hit a medium creature. Okay. Yeah, let's say there's a harpoon on the wall.
00:48:48
Speaker
There are five harpoons on the wall. Yeah, we're spending a story point. There's more than one harpoon on the wall. Yeah, you're right. There are harpoons. This is festooned with harpoons. It's a harpoon festoon. We didn't realize it was built out of harpoons. Now they're just gonna start falling apart. So yeah, I'm gonna try that. I don't even know what to roll for a ranged attack. Throne, I think you're allowed to use. Wait, maybe that's just D&D.
00:49:13
Speaker
I will allow you to use your brawn as the base and then any ranks in range that you have. I think I've got to be zero. So five brawn means five green. Zero ranks in range. So I'm rolling five greens against how hard? Oh, and do they have defense? You can aim. I can't aim. They have range defense three.
00:49:36
Speaker
I'm not making this. And how difficult again? Too purple. Too purple. I'm not making this happen. It's five green, but I can't get a despair. Yeah. I've never rolled. This is the weirdest pool I've ever rolled. Yeah, there's no proficiency here. Oh, for instance. Five green, two purple, and three black.
00:49:52
Speaker
And there are two of them, and it's, oh it's not melee anyway. Oh, you get a boost because they are silhouette too, so you're targeting
Showdown with Captain Bronzebeard
00:50:00
Speaker
a slightly bigger creature. Uh, her tattoos treat you as if you have an extra skill in any brawn and agility skill, so you would upgrade that once. Oh, and actually, I am barreared. Augmented. Augmented though. Okay, so that's, that, it's a weird pool, man.
00:50:24
Speaker
Okay. Ooh. A lot of light dice. Aeris comes through with the triumph possibility. Let's see, that goes cancel. I guess it's like light. Then go ahead and just for the sake of bookkeeping, add that from the pillar. Oh, okay. So I have succeeded with three threat, but one is a triumph. Seated with three threat. Two success. Oh yeah, number of success does matter to detect, sorry.
00:50:54
Speaker
So two success. My javelin, my harpoon, has Breach 12. One of these has a spear on their character sheet, which I had enough for me. That is 8 base damage. Nice. Nice, yeah. Great weapon. Yeah, you should probably write that down, actually.
00:51:18
Speaker
plus two, so that would be 10 total damage. But you do note, as you see the harpoon hit this figure floating, they are... In substantial? Ethereal? Ethereal in nature. So the harpoon goes flying through them. You see it does affect them just not as effectively as it could have, sure. And when I threw it, I'd go, as though it was being shot out of harpoon. That's important to me. Yeah.
00:51:48
Speaker
But yeah, that is what you got. Okay, so just if I have to do it again, just so I have the math right, it's eight plus successes flat. So the stats for throwing the spear, eight base damage, crit three.
00:52:07
Speaker
Limited ammo one, obviously, because you just got the one harpoon, but there are others on the wall. An accurate one, which means you add one boost to the attack. Go ahead and roll this guy. Okay, so you have three threads to play, so that's 10 damage to him.
00:52:31
Speaker
A triumph. A triumph to play with. You all see... They will still have the... particular hit. You see another group of skeletal pirates come up from below deck. Sure. What if for the triumph... Is the ship made of bones? Do they just climb out of the deck? Yes, yep, yep. Oh, I like that!
00:52:59
Speaker
Uh, what if we just get an errant firing of the cannon with the triumph? It goes off her. It's like, oh! It's a duck's load. He's like, oh, I'm rusty. It's been a while. Luckily, ducks are ghosts, so it just goes through him. Through him, exactly. Now what can we do with this triumph? You could crit on the ghost. You could summon yet another pirate.
00:53:21
Speaker
Ask for a distraction. What is, what, both, the guy just hits still flying, right? Yes. Okay. If it took him out, I'd say let's hit the other guy again and see what happens, but. Good crit. Yeah, let's crit all the guys flying at us, or one of the guys flying at us. That's not a tie. Yeah, go for it. That's not a tie. 31. 31.
00:53:45
Speaker
The target is staggered until their next turn. That's falling out of the sky for sure. I don't know which one staggered is. Cannot perform actions. Nice. Okay, great. That. They can fly all they want. Bodyguard is not a spell even though it feels like one. I don't have to worry about concentration with that. Okay, good.
00:54:06
Speaker
Okay, NPC slot. Because somebody feels like a spell. Okay, three figures launch up off of the deck. They are flying, but their wings are just bone where the stretched skin and everything would be. And these are very clearly skeletal dragonborn that are flying across the gap. So they get medium distance away. Actually, they are going to spend two strain. Oh, it's like dragonborn's name in the first campaign.
00:54:36
Speaker
Barasha. Barasha. With our dragonborn. The dragonborn. He was a dragonborn. You see it rear back as fire coalesce in its skeletal mouth and it blasts in a... Those parts of it have you.
00:54:53
Speaker
It's going to target the cannon and specifically Eris. No. That seems to be a problem. Cheating. That is manifesting. Cheating. So this is going to be their short distance away. Range defense. I have one. OK. And they've already taken two maneuvers. They can't do anything else. So that is their pool. So. Oh. Bollocks.
00:55:22
Speaker
That is three success and an advantage. And this has a creating three. It is going to be nine damage. No, thank you. And they can't trigger any of the other stuff. Oh, they had a free upgrade from the Wraith World 3 Advantage. This goes away. 10 damage and no advantage. Okay.
00:55:53
Speaker
You're gonna have to figure out how to put an insert in that notebook, aren't you? The next one is going to do the same thing with targeting hob. Yeah. Eris is badly burned. That look right? Yeah, I think so.
00:56:22
Speaker
One advantage. Okay. They'll pass a boost to the next one. Yeah, they will. Milo, which upgrade three times so that becomes two red. Pretty cool, man. Um, Milo, do you have range defense? One. One. Okay. And the boost was from... Right. Wait, they just passed a boost too, didn't they? No. Okay. Oh, wait. Yeah, that was their advantage.
00:56:52
Speaker
Two success and a threat. Eight damage. Out of my luck. And the threat, they will take a point of strain, which... So seven damage because of my suck. Yeah, you tell them. We have a PC saw.
00:57:17
Speaker
Reynard, Sana, Ulfin, Angel. Yes? Claudio. Sorry, Claudio. I'm trying to think of what's going to be best here. Shoot something or do a spell on something. What does Angel hit? Do we know yet? I don't know. He has a magical staff on his back that he has pulled off and has prepared. He's magic.
00:57:42
Speaker
I made druids. I do magics that is primal with plants and seveza. Oh no, I was alley-ooping you for a demonstration. Okay, so is Claudia going to go instead of... Sure. That give Raygard a second to think about what he was going to do. He's only had several turns. And it's gone very evenly. Yes, I know. Thank you.
00:58:06
Speaker
I'm not going to start being nice to you just because you had one really good arc. Yeah, now I'm back to before. I'd love to be healed by Claudio if that's an option. Ooh. OK. There it is. Scary, badly burned. That's a great one. Which I seem to recall she said. Nothing else I can do about it. I'm burned over here. Hob is very good at defending his forensic. He's very bad at healing moves.
00:58:36
Speaker
he's gonna stay or rainard could heal her i feel like the angel's gonna be a little better at it i don't know if that's true my guy it's probably not true but your angel might be really good at popping a pirate would you like to do something offensive and have claudio yeah let's have i'll heal okay and claudio can explode something can bing bang bong somebody
00:59:04
Speaker
Obviously, Claudio as a druid should cast the summon spell, the conjure spell, to add yet more things. Yeah, another thing. That's actually a great idea. No. It's the most powerful spell in the game. We need several more. We need some dragons on our side. Right.
00:59:27
Speaker
Oh I did it. Yeah you did. There are three success, three advantage, so two advantage because of the threat. Heal that. Yeah heal that. That's my nice thing for you because I have news later. I guess that's when we'll find out whether it balances.
00:59:52
Speaker
Yeah, not the same weight. It's still a very uneven scale. Okay, the next thing you all see.
01:00:02
Speaker
with this NPC slot is erupting off of the deck. You see a figure in armor, skeletal figure, but with a bronze beard affixed to the lower jaw go leaping off and they begin to fall and from this arcane current that you all witnessed a translucent and skeletal great white comes up to meet them as they mount.
01:00:32
Speaker
the fish as it leaps towards you all. You know what they're going to say about this episode? What? This is when we shark to the jump. And it's going to perform mounted charge ability. So it's going to charge straight at Ulfin, obviously. Sure. Did Ulfin get hit with the barrier or no? Yes. Did Ulfin? Yes. He gets to add two to that.
01:01:03
Speaker
Yeah, Ulfin was my second choice after Hob. Didn't rain, right? Probably not, but I took it. You got all three of us, right? Yeah. Pretty cool. Pretty cool spells we knew. Really defensive. Yeah, I wanted to definitely put something on Ulfin if I could. Okay. And Ulfin has Adversary 1. So, by stupidly, permission we got to the leader of the race.
01:01:33
Speaker
Okay, that is the pool. All right. Yep. Two success. Okay, so he is going to deal.
01:01:50
Speaker
He has a giant bronze flail that he's just swinging and brings in and it connects with Ulfin's shoulder and you just hear a crunch as it deals 11 points of damage to Ulfin. There are better applications for that metal. Also in the metal it has beards also. That's what I'm saying. I don't think you really grew that thing, Aaron.
01:02:15
Speaker
I think it's all posturing! After barrier and all that stuff, it's 11 damage. No, that's the base damage. Is he wearing a bronze color? It would appear, if you had to guess, at some point in life, his lower jaw was blown off in some way. And he replaced it with a bronze apparatus that appears to, it hangs down lower, bronze beard. That would be heavy.
01:02:46
Speaker
It's cool, but it's artificial. That's when your jaw gets blown off. You can't grow a beard. I thought it was really metal. I referred to a raw turkey as foul on this weekend. I thought he was a warforged.
01:03:01
Speaker
The ship gets closer so it's now medium distance away and the Skeleton crew are going to fire their arrows. Oh, no. We're just gonna go around the circles. Hob is first up. Range defense three. Do all your evil machinations over there. I'm just gonna yell range defense three.
01:03:31
Speaker
Oh, hey. That's a lot of dice. The skeletal pirate crew? Okay, not the flying guys. No. I just... When I crit on somebody, they're upgrade. Difficult to upgrade next time. Okay, so this is the pool. Goodness. Okay. Yikes. Yeah, it's gonna hit me. Oh no. I don't know if it is gonna hit you. Oh, he's gonna figure out a way for it to hit me with a triumph and just maybe a roundabout.
01:04:01
Speaker
He doesn't have to if it's there. Four success and a triumph. Yeah, bye. So the base damage is nine, or sorry, ten base damage. So what's your soak is? My soak is ten, but also there's three off the top of that in the first place. Hob doesn't notice. Okay. But this triumph, he's gonna notice that, isn't he? Nine more guys show up with Dux Allegiance turns.
01:04:33
Speaker
They swoop in on pelicans. The legal says you know I never trusted you often. On pelicans.
01:04:47
Speaker
skeletal pelicans the skeletal pelican with a jellicle pelican okay i'm i i know what the triumph is going to be i'm just going to resolve all of the attacks for this
01:05:01
Speaker
turn the cars and then I'll do the triumph. Fire to fire. So did you take it? Did you take that? Uh, no, did not take it. So he can't be created upon. Does it hit me? Yeah. Yeah. Since it was just Hobbs based. So you could say that you knock the arrow, the arrows cause five arrows came flying. Look my teeth.
01:05:23
Speaker
Milo, you have one melee defense, or one ranged defense. Okay, so this is the difficulty to attack Milo. Good. No, it's not. I don't know if you noticed that, but it's bad. It's just wish for free.
01:05:47
Speaker
That's... I told you it was bad. That's two triumphs. Making it three triumphs. He's already spent one of them. He's already spent one of them. It's not. That's right. He already made up his mind on the one. He can't take that back. That would be against all the good things. Take a look at me now. So that is five success, three threat, two advantage. 11 damage to Milo base. Oh, yeah. I think that's...
01:06:15
Speaker
And you're not barriers. We're not going to make it. That's why. Yeah. Okay. I've got one soak. Oh my word. That's what you say. 11 damage. So that's why I do wear so little. So that makes 70. Yeah. Just wearing a heavy coat. Oh yeah. Okay. Oh no. So you suffer a crit because you go down. Yep.
01:06:53
Speaker
I can't remember how often you're supposed to roll once per week.
01:07:13
Speaker
If you don't see one, that's fine. Before you do that, I can use my cloak. I think I probably need to do that. Go back to the game table.
01:07:32
Speaker
And, okay, you hit me for 10, so I was 17. 11. Hit you for 11. So, I got three, so if I take four away, that would leave me with one. Well, you can match your wind threshold without going down. It's only once you've exceeded it. Yeah, but I have to suffer strain to do this, so if I take one, two, three, four, five strain,
01:08:02
Speaker
That will put me at 2. OK. Is that what you're going to do? Yeah, I think so. At least I'm not going down yet.
01:08:16
Speaker
Yeah, so this comes, these arrows come flying in and Milo starts whipping his cloak around and knocked him away. Okay, so once again, I know what those mean, I'm just gonna finish, and they are two distinct things, I'm not compiling triumphs, but this is... Two or three distinct things. No, it's, this is one thing. One real big thing, one real big bad thing for me and you.
01:08:40
Speaker
where these guys get somewhere in the back of Eric's mind he's beginning to the reality of the possibility of the campaign ending because we disappeared I'll just never came back there you go how what's your age that's Eris one so I'm hiding behind a cannon okay I was gonna party guard you
01:09:07
Speaker
That's so many success. That's a lot of failure as well, though. Oh, okay. I like that part. Not quite as much failure as success, unfortunately. True. There's a disturbing amount of advantage. So three success, three advantage. Yep. Nine damage base. Ouch. And they're going to use those three advantage to crit on you. Glad you healed me. That was helpful. You're welcome. 80.
01:09:39
Speaker
It's time to get stupid once they get on the boat, though. How far away are you from your wound threshold? Not very far away from my wound threshold. You had to put a number on it. I had to put a number on it. If I was forced to put a number on it, I would say that I am five away from my wound threshold. But he is a liar.
01:10:00
Speaker
But I would only say that if I was forced to. I already said I'm critting. I rolled 4. It is what it is. Overpowered. Target leaves themselves open. The attacker may attempt another. Did you add 10?
01:10:11
Speaker
Because I do possess a crit. No, I'm still the possessor of a crit. Compromised. Increase the difficulty of all skill checks by one until the critical injury is healed. Hate it. That's actually better. You're not immediately out of the fight. Reynard. What's your range of defense? One. There's 30 guys on their side still. Two guys out of the fight. I made them all a little unsteady though. Oh, a little guy. Yeah.
01:10:39
Speaker
Bye bye, Rainard, bye bye. Three success, one advantage. Okay. Nine base damage. And I have. Three so's. Plus the three. So you take three damage. Three damage. Cool, cool. And they had one advantage. They will pass a boost to the group about to attack. Sana. Our gnar, our friends. This is quite the large group.
01:11:10
Speaker
They are groups of five. That's a lot of dice. So that is one, two, three, four, five. Success. And two, advantage. Good grief. For the listeners, he rolled 11 dice. You didn't bear your sauna, did you? No. And then Bulfin?
01:11:39
Speaker
Hasn't he been to it now? Oh, Sana had adversary though. I don't remember what they were. It's okay. It's okay. Oh, Open doesn't have ranged defense. Just melee defense. I don't want to die and turn into ghostly pirates. I think of a worse fate. Okay, maybe...
01:12:08
Speaker
One success, and one, two, three, four, five, six advantage. So Mulfin takes seven damage. On the barrier. So he actually takes two damage. And two crits. Yeah, at this point, I already have a lot happening at the end of this series of attacks, so we're going to call it two crits. Three triumphs.
01:12:40
Speaker
Fire T1 for our Irish listeners. Why do you keep doing that today? Ulfin is knocked prone and suffers one strain. So the arrows just hit Ulfin and knock him over. And the last attack against Cloudkill. They don't penetrate his body, they just knock him over. It's the green arrow punching back here. Boxing glove. Punching, punching. Punching fists. Punch mittens. Punch mittens. Punch mittens. Yes.
01:13:14
Speaker
We should be summoning more pirates because we might need a less they did not hit Claudio Oh
Episode Climax and Conclusion
01:13:20
Speaker
good one failure has three upgrades Yeah, they'll pass an upgrade to the next and that's all the skeletons. Oh Yeah, cool
01:13:29
Speaker
And now it's three of us And it's just okay, so the initial triumph that was rolled the ship basically becomes like the arcane waves are getting choppy out of setback checks and The two triumphs on the roll against Milo Milo The arrows hit you
01:13:52
Speaker
and you use your magic to, like, convert some of that to strain. Your body is still standing, you're staggering, and you see the smoke coming out of your scar. Oh no. What's going to happen? It begins to swirl and coalesce as hand reaches through
01:14:18
Speaker
And the most notable thing about this arm and hand that reaches through is there are kindness plates all over it with little eyes poking through. No. And it pulls you towards the portal as it grows bigger. What? Not through the portal. Towards the portal. The port? There wasn't a portal a minute ago. Like the smoke is like... Yeah, I gotcha. That was bad information. Scary stuff. A figure whose body is also covering these kindness plates with eyes. You've been a bad...
