Introduction and Character Roll Call

00:00:28
Speaker
Hello everyone and welcome to this highly anticipated live episode of the Fellowship of the Tabletop, Bellum Draconis. We are a live play 5e D and&D podcast set in the magical homebrew world of Aerith in the Kingdom of Dralak. Joining you for this, the finale of the big competition, the duel of the desert champions, which I finally remembered. We have Poobear who plays the human cleric Emron.
00:00:50
Speaker
Fucking hell. The edgelord calum who plays the It's happening guys. Will who plays the Dragonborn Druid Battle Falcon. Finale, let's not die. And my name is Mark and I'm playing the human blading of Seth, Farah Iver. Last but my name is Lisa Zawa. My story of magic, the stranger, danger, ranger, the boss man bar that gets us all hard, the vegan queen behind the DM's screen, our master beta facilitator. Can he tell it's half past eleven at night? Dungeon Master Danny! Bonjour!

Arena Setup and Duel Preparation

00:01:28
Speaker
We zoom in over a large crowd of people. Wooden floors and smoke fills the air. An old girl in his big long toes is clacking over some wooden floor. He seems to be holding something small and paper in his hands as he patiently waits. A large orc with blue eyes approaches and says, too good. He hands the ticket forward, punches it, hands it back, and he walks out into a large arena. He's here watching the finale.
00:01:56
Speaker
oh yeah the orb falls out of his pocket for a second he picks it up looks into it and as he walks forward finds a seat between two strange gnomes who are eating popcorn who seems to be pissed out of their heads he turns to us listener Oh, round three. Here comes a blow-by-blow blindside. Varus with us and the group group up and they are blind bombed. Blindside. Varus not with us, but he gets yeeted out of the arena by Reigns. Boomtown. Alpha shoots and fucking kills Galia and Reigns heals and then leaves the competition for the finale. Let's see what happens. Oh boy. The gnome sat next to him, turns to you.
00:02:38
Speaker
I don't understand a single word you just said. And they turned back towards the competition. Shut your fucking mouth, boy.
00:02:48
Speaker
Cut your nails. It's disgusting. An entire city cascaded in darkness.
00:02:58
Speaker
a firework, a second, a third, a fourth, and suddenly there's a magical layer that sits above Scorchhelm that is now animated with lights and sound and flashes and joy from a ruptuous 10,000 strong crowd. In the course of this hour that is happening in the conclusion of all four of the
00:03:27
Speaker
heats from the first set of battles. The arena itself has reformed into one structure.
00:03:41
Speaker
In the conclusion of the four fights, the two remaining champions are surrounded in a 25-foot perimeter, radius, unable to leave but protected.
00:03:55
Speaker
and all telepathically communicated to catch your breath, lick your wounds, in one hour's time, the finale begins.
00:04:06
Speaker
Can we see who else is, oh are we in individual sections? No, you are in shared sections. Okay. Of the whole group? No, just in the pairs. Okay. So, have a hit. Seth and Nix are sharing one chamber.
00:04:22
Speaker
Emron and Rurik, Alfa and Baal, and there is a fourth chamber that no one can see and you can't really see, it's quite blurry outside of your chamber. The stadium sort of ah breaks for refreshment breaks, comfort breaks, etc. And the music is quite light and jovial. And after you're approaching about 45 minutes of just recovering and resting,
00:04:54
Speaker
That familiar song kicks up again that Prego uses now so regularly to mark his intro.

The Aerial Colosseum and Finalists' Announcement

00:05:03
Speaker
That single stringed instrument. And then you start to feel quaking beneath your feet as this colosseum lifts again towards the sky, 100, 150 feet into the air.
00:05:22
Speaker
And then you notice as the stadium stays at that level and your chambers keep going. A mile in the air. Well, you're all in the mile high club. wait nick um And you just hear this announcement in Prego's voice echoing around the city and the sands outside.
00:05:53
Speaker
Welcome all to the finale of the Jewel of the Desert Champions. I, your gracious host, Prego the Majestic welcome you to what is surely to be the spectacle of the century. Eight competitors now locked into one final jewel where one will be crowned champion and there is a cacophony of sound and cheer and firework and band playing up. The competitors themselves not know the rules for their finale. We will all learn together. It is a very simple one. The jewel will take place one mile above Scorchelle. There are four platforms each pair will start on and then
00:06:55
Speaker
One, one must remain. Now, your finalists are as follows.
00:07:08
Speaker
Osiris might lord and there is a booming, booming cheer. And Nix, Corell, there is a slightly less booming cheer, but still good. Suck it, bitch. Ahem. Emron. Emron holds up the hand hammer of planchella shield. And there is near silence. Don't care. Don't care about the clap from Nix in the corner. Just one clap. He's done so well. Rurik Ironforge. And there is a cheer, but nowhere near hitting Nix's level, but palpably above yours, Emron.
00:07:45
Speaker
Wow! A decent cheer. I will raise the fist up. The walking volcano. And there is a voluptuous cheer. Trial 4-7-2. And there is silence.
00:08:05
Speaker
The Valkyrie. The loudest cheer that matches Osiris Mightlord's cheer. Oh fuck, I forgot about this. RIP flood. Oh. Oh.

High Stakes and Competitor Strategies

00:08:16
Speaker
He might not be dead. Oh, God. Well, because he went in blood. He went in blooded. Yeah, but why? Lots of other people didn't. They escaped. Unless he walked out. He didn't. Yeah. Sorry. Each of your finalists will exit their chamber in 15 minutes time. One will emerge. Victorious. A reminder, ladies and gentle folk. There are five blooded competitors here today. Corel.
00:08:44
Speaker
Ironforge, the towering volcano, the Valkyrie, and trial 472.
00:08:57
Speaker
Competitors, only one chance to leave early. If you are killed in this tournament and you are bloodied,
00:09:12
Speaker
Then thank you for your entertainment.
00:09:20
Speaker
Whilst drooling, there is only a one opportunity for one of you to live. You'll see it. Otherwise, you cannot walk out of this one alive. Can you repeat that?
00:09:42
Speaker
Only one person made leave early may leave May leave early. And there are gasps around.
00:10:00
Speaker
Now, take your seats and let the show begin. In these 15 minutes you have remaining of your short rest.
00:10:12
Speaker
Is there anything you'd like to do? I wanted to try and talk to Rurik if he was going to, because obviously when we finished... It's probably the least important conversation at the moment, Will, I haven't been properly honest. Other people can jump, and I warn you, Will, I've got no character background, so I'm winging it. What's your motivation off, Danny? I'm happy to do the this part if you want to take over the combat. Sure. I was just saying, anyone wants to talk to Rurik, but obviously, let other... So we'll go to Enron and Rurik's chamber to begin with, and Rurik is even in a meditative state. It's humming this this low, dwarvish, you recognise it as a...
00:10:49
Speaker
a chant of Vettinus over and over again, just a battle chant over and over again. Did he go straight into it after? He has been doing it for the whole hour. Okay. He did stop to listen to Prago's announcement.
00:11:05
Speaker
And he's he's he's still doing it, he's not... It hasn't broken. It's focused. Okay. And Ronald looked to Ward Rorick and in Dwarvish say,
00:11:20
Speaker
From climb, shadow shield, you have my respect. I must make sure that my friends survive. No hard feelings if it comes to blows. Unbroken from his concentration. He stops talking and hears you, but doesn't respond. With God's watch over us both.
00:11:47
Speaker
Was it, was it, was it, was it, um, was it, was it Vatinis? Yes. Um, Vatinis, what Jovia? Azarido does me. He gives you nothing. That's fine. Just want anyone tense? So as we move out of Rurik and Emron's waiting area and roll into Baal and Alphas. Are you guys talking? Are you focusing? What is your pregame? Alpha will turn to Baal. Rains was indeed correct. It looks like there was more to it than what was previously thought. How do you how do you still feel about it, Baal?
00:12:43
Speaker
I'm winning the tournament, Alpha.
00:12:49
Speaker
Nothing's changed.
00:12:54
Speaker
I think Alfa not particularly being able to read people all that well. Just going to stand next to Baal and put like a hand on his shoulder um push um do it and foiled.
00:13:14
Speaker
Yeah, he's really's really tense, really tensed up. um But he kind of nods and says, thank you for what you did in that last fight and be able to thank Reigns in person too. What he did was, well, took guts. Yes. Hopefully Nix will keep up his end of your arrangement.
00:13:49
Speaker
Only one can make it out. Nyx wants Marota safe.
00:14:03
Speaker
When it comes down to it, Marota's not going to take that willingly. Whether it is this Marota or the one that I knew, she never would.
00:14:22
Speaker
I don't know what will happen, Alpha. but
00:14:28
Speaker
But... I'm glad that... Well... Sounds like the rest of the team made it through. Perhaps that may now just overcomplicate a thing. Time will tell.
00:14:50
Speaker
I only see it being one way or another. A deal is a deal. The keep that myself reigns in and everyone agreed to save is safe. My priority now is the egg.
00:15:07
Speaker
It's really petty. Can I make an insight check? Yeah. Really, really, really petty. and You make your insight check. You make a persuasion check to turn the truth.
00:15:19
Speaker
and the deception check if you're not don't tell us which say give us the result seventeen nine are you I am telling the truth believe him thank you Alpha that is the most important thing here
00:15:50
Speaker
I think to the cause that we all seem to be following too, just perhaps the rest don't know it yet. Perhaps. Time will tell.
00:16:07
Speaker
And we zoom out of your chamber and into Seth and Nix's. What are you two doing? Got some choices, Seth. Wow. Nix. Yep. We ain't got long. We've got a lot of stuff to take for 10 minutes to cast. Yep.
00:16:20
Speaker
What do you thought? No! I've got things I've got to do! And Nix is looking over at Marota and just kind of studying her. You can't see her in there. You can't see into the other changes. Oh, sorry. You know that they can see these blue cylinders that match the one you're in. Okay. But it's just too misty, too murky. Got you. I've got things I've got to do, man. I've got ah go promises to keep. So it's her so it's her over a bottle? Because that's what you're saying. You want to keep her alive more than ball? No.
00:16:51
Speaker
Tell me the plan so I can help. I'm gonna speak to her. Loved that work last time.
00:17:00
Speaker
Come on bro, we can make a decision here. you Like, I think I can do it. I think I can break through to her. But I was gonna be fine, he's gonna win the tournament. ah That's the most important thing, that's what we agreed to.
00:17:14
Speaker
I need to go to Marrero. As soon as I lock eyes on her, I'm, I'm, that's my tournament for me. She'll punch you till you die. You do understand that, right? And then I will run over it and save you and you should punch me till I die. But the thing is, I'll come back. You ain't. And then no one will be able to defend Baal, apart from the others. And as then it's an even fight, they will beat them. I have a habit of making it out of sticky situations alive. I'm going to just roll my luck.
00:17:42
Speaker
You do, but... One last time. I don't.
00:17:47
Speaker
We don't know if Paul does either. I've got stuff. I know you've got stuff. If you can knock her out, we can put her on the rope. Yeah. But I don't... There's three that we care about, that you care about, there's only two I really care about, that might die permanently at this point.
00:18:09
Speaker
I don't know this Marota, but she seems like a twat if I'm being perfectly honest. All I've seen is twettish, but you know, awkward lady. Right? I know, bob I know you. I like you. I like, well, you guys seem to really like each other. So from what I heard the other night, so I don't want this to end.
00:18:32
Speaker
You've got other shit, I understand that. But know that you're not the only one here that's got, you know, a stake in the game here. I know, but I can only trust those to look after their stake. And... Baal's got his stake in the game. And I think Baal's gonna do everything Dragonborn possible to get that. And I want nothing more for Baal to get his. I just need to get Hands of Merura.
00:19:02
Speaker
that's all I'm gunning for here fine and um Seth's going to shake his head and reside himself to the fact face away face out towards the other three take a couple of breaths and just kind of stretch himself out and get ready for the for the combat maybe flip through his book but he's done talking now okay Nix is nervously also looking through his book and uh Then he's gonna just focus in on the glass orb ah from old girl and he's gonna appear as if his whole life depended on it to try and see any future outcomes in this cracked glass crystal orb. Make a straight wisdom throw.
00:19:55
Speaker
Just a straight wisdom throat. As in just roll a d20. Then add your wisdom. Has the audience come up with a laptop? No. The audience can't see. They are three quarters of a mile below you. Right, okay, cool. Sixteen. Something interesting happens. You look into this cracked door, which is so often empty. You see a face inside looking back at you, smirking.
00:20:26
Speaker
And then he winks, steps back. It's prego the majestic motherfucker motherfucker.
00:20:42
Speaker
Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. sorry Also in that time in the hour time that we've been resting as well is arcane recovery and also I've cast five familiar ten minutes great so thankslos with No, I can't because it's ten minutes plus an hour. So no, I can't it's a nip angle I threw him out of a Just before we do go I have to recast the cannon. Yep for it. So I'll be doing it as a four choice to this fight You're going yet at all. Yeah one shot and I killed somebody nice so and unuccess right last time had yeah
00:21:20
Speaker
The music stops down below and this huge 60 piece orchestra, only you would see this range because everyone else is a mile in the sky, has sort of occupied the space beneath this ah raised arena and starts playing this very heavy string number.
00:21:44
Speaker
with a fierce force. Like this is the most drilled discipline musicians you have ever heard, ever seen.

Battle Begins on Floating Platforms

00:21:55
Speaker
And in a second, those blue veils are lifted and you find yourself in the following environment. Here we go. Oh, it's on. Ooh.
00:22:08
Speaker
no good You find yourself on four outer platforms and this one huge ring in the center. All of your platforms are slightly below and there are these four connecting bridges that allow you to traverse to this higher platform. Looking down you see yourself a mile above the ground. Floating alongside you are other pieces of structure just in orbit that perhaps someone athletic could use to to leap on, but it would be a ah real challenge. but There's a very center of the arena is a vial, a potion of slow fall. Otherwise there is nothing else up here. I'd like you all to roll initiative please. Are we able to drink potions before that happens or not? Yes, you should have said you were doing it in that preparation. Well, no, I was gonna wait until the thing went down. So I don't know what the bad time, basically. I'll allow that, yeah. You've switched the potion before initiative, that's what you're asking. Cool, yeah. Okay.
00:23:18
Speaker
Oh, I rolled with the wrong character. Oh, donkey tits. Okay. any Anyone roll above 25?
00:23:33
Speaker
I thought I rolled well. And above 20. Okay.
00:23:40
Speaker
And above 15. Yes. Yes. 18. 19, Seth got 19. Did you say yes or just make a noise? No, I was just getting... Okay. And above 10. 14. 11.
00:23:57
Speaker
I'm nervous. Need to. Number five. I got five. I got five. Dexes please. Mine's a dexterity plus two. Same. Roll again please. You only got yourself to blame. Next. Five. 15. Okay. Get the shit all done now. That's fine. That's fine. What are you doing in the damage? Here we go.
00:24:21
Speaker
so As soon as those fails are down, this one animated armored structure just begins striding with a Goliath-like speed. This creature that's been referred to as Trial 4-7-2. Runs.
00:24:45
Speaker
75 feet. What?
00:24:50
Speaker
sorry fucking cheat mode 35 feet fall into the center disc and then enlarges itself and begins to start to reform and it lands itself on four legs rather than the two and it becomes almost like a animated beast than an animated suit of armor and it's just staring there at the three other bridges so it was sharing a starting area with the valkyrie But it's looking to the northeast, where it sees Alpha and Baal yet to depart. The northwest, where it sees Seth and Next waiting to depart. And to the southwest, where it sees Rurik and Emron. And it is just looking in anticipation at all of you. That is the end of its turn. Has it doubled in size? Has it cast enlargement? It's doubled in size. Cool. I should probably indicate by growing that, yes. Could you do the same to Emron's as well, please?
00:25:48
Speaker
why and one took the potion of growth just before as the as the things came down i'm in the south oh thank you next up it is the valkyrie's turn and the valkyrie is just going to do something very interesting she's going to take one huge leap vertically she gets about 10 15 feet in the air and you watch as she just unfurls this pair of black wings behind her and she's going to fly above the stage by about 25 feet. ki now And just hover in midair in the sections between her original starting point position and Emeron and Rurik iron forges. And that's all she's going to do. It's Seth's turn.
00:26:41
Speaker
Seth's gonna just look around, look to next. For fuck's sake.
00:26:51
Speaker
Oh well. And he's going to sprint and he's going to dash and he's going to grab the potion. Pick it up. Look up at this absolutely huge beast.
00:27:07
Speaker
double finger, middle finger up at him, and then he's gonna misty step 30 feet away. Right, so 15, 20, 20, 30, back onto the bridge where he came from, previously. Banffing away with the potion in hand and get the fuck out of there. And he's gonna land facing Nyx, holding the potion.
00:27:29
Speaker
He's going to land a hole in the potion facing Nyx on this bridge with Landor floating around him and he's got us back to this Goliath creature thing. Yep. And that's all he's going to do. Thank you very much. Alpha.
00:27:47
Speaker
Oh my good god. um No, we've got to win this. We've got to fight. So I'm going in all guns blazing and I use the term very, very loosely but also very little. I've got to fire everything I've got at this. So it's going to be shot with my pistol and then I'm going to fire with my force ballista as well. Come on. 18 to hit with the pistol. This is all on the trial. 4-7-2. 4-7-2. Thank you. Hits.
00:28:20
Speaker
6 points of force damage. Thank you. And then with the force ballista. 16 to hit. Hits. Okay.
00:28:36
Speaker
For... Let's go, can I? 12 points of force damage. Thank you. And...
00:28:51
Speaker
There is no saving throw for this, you are just pushed five feet away from me. Shit. That could come in handy. Just, as long as I hit you, and you take both force damage and you are pushed five feet away. Okay. Thank you very much. ah All your turn complete? Yep. Great. Nix, you're up. Where's Maruta? In the air, on the southern edge, on the platforms between her starting one and Emron and Rurik's starting one.
00:29:22
Speaker
flying with dark wings your top left decisions decision I did not expect Sephiroth Marota to be part of this um Um... I will. How far is she? Why is she way away from me? She's really far away. Fuck. I don't want to waste a spell slot just like that.
00:30:07
Speaker
um
00:30:12
Speaker
Um... No! Crap! Crap, as Nick says out loud, he's gonna walk his 30 feet down towards Steph. Steph, Steph, sorry. How far can I get? You can get in five feet. Okay.
00:30:30
Speaker
um
00:30:34
Speaker
Ooh, buddy. It's gonna be interesting. I'm still going to try and save it though. Nyx's hands start to kind of, it's like he's dusting off to try and get some Arcanic ability back, almost like he's shaking them out. And he's going to look towards the center of the the the main circle and there's that motherfucker over huge bitch ass thing. And he's going to just throw a fire, purple fire bolt at it. Okay.
00:31:07
Speaker
That's a 91 for seven. You used all your good rolls last. Yep, with a different character. A character, a different manner. And this is? Yeah, yeah. That's the end of my go. Okay. Thank you, everyone. Enlarged. So that there's a good thing that came down, everyone's there. Larger than life, double the size. He looks towards Rorik and I'm gonna surge over towards Rorik. Do it, push it off. And be like...
00:31:38
Speaker
The tennis watch over you as a little does me. and I'm gonna hit him with my hammer. do shit that's um eight to hit very
00:32:00
Speaker
It doesn't hit, he's got 16-8. Okay. I'm sorry, sorry, yeah. Sorry, sorry, sorry. I forgot that was me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I was doing gross. Yeah, Dan misses. Anyone else? Oh yeah, I'm gonna cast um spiritual weapon.
00:32:15
Speaker
as a bonus action and my hammer will appear next to me and I kind of wanted it to do more than this um and the hammer is going to appear next to Ulrich and using my knuckle dusters it's going to make a shove action the hammer's going to try and shove Ulrich off the platform okay fuck yeah using my strength modifier, I also have advantage on strength checks, does that include this? It does not include your, you do, your hammer doesn't. Yes, sorry, okay, fine. But it's using my base athletics, isn't it? Yes. Thank you. Come on, try and do one good roll tonight. One acrobatics, the one athletics from you, please, Baruch. Yup. Well done, well done. What'd you get, Will? It's not on the, it's 12. I rolled acrobatics and got 19. Okay, so the shove is unsuccessful.
00:33:07
Speaker
um I take it that's his action, isn't it? Using... Yeah, so your bonus action is using the switch weapon. It's done. Fine, cool. Yeah, so the hammer's appeared next to Rorik. I'm trying to... You gotta give yourself a last name. It is your turn to return the favour, Rorik. Rorik will have his mace glean with his own radiant fire as he goes to use branding smite on Emrom. Mm-hmm.
00:33:40
Speaker
If it's an attack, you need to click. Oh. Yeah, it's really weird to roll it. Just click on it. Just click on it. So it's the next time you hit a creep, it's a bonus action, and you need to hit the actions. Oh, OK. Because you've fetched the weapon. Roll to hit. Yeah, roll to hit. So now you do an attack action as normal. Roll to hit, yeah. You can't, because it's not your character, you have to manually roll and add the modifies yourself. You can't modify them. OK, thanks, man. Huh,
00:34:08
Speaker
natural one. Natural one. That misses. I'm going to take a second for ink if I get two going for the place. Yeah, that one's better. Is it? It's clearer to see the letters. Not good either. That's a... what is it? That's a 10. Misses. So your hammer is still illuminated because the spell laugh until you hit a finish hitting. Bonus action. The... the still defenders. Does he have to summon it? Like Alfred did. Yeah, you need to summon it. Oh really? As a...
00:34:37
Speaker
I thought it was already on the map, but okay, maybe I'm wrong. It's not on the map. Nevermind. Unless you did it during the thing with when I did my potion. Nevermind. I assumed it was already summoned because he had it last fight, but nevermind. I'll allow I'll allow it. Let me put you and icon down.
00:34:53
Speaker
yeah
00:34:59
Speaker
ah Fucking hell guys. Are we gonna finish this? The steel defender should be down there oh you go In combat still defender you've already used your bonus action. Yeah, so it it takes itself to yours, but all it can do is dodge.
00:35:21
Speaker
Okay, have I used the bonus action? Yeah, you cast Burning Spine. I did, yeah. It's a bonus action. Don't I do that on the hit or do I do that? No, Oh no, you cast the spell first as a bonus action. Your stone defender is out. It's like my searing smite, light the flame up, and then once it hits the spell goes, but until then it's up for a minute essentially. It's concentration. That's why it woes.
00:35:45
Speaker
Okay, thank you very much. We are... We did nothing that round. With the liberties with regards to the potion and the steel defender, would Baal be able to have his wildfire spirit already out? Yeah. All this stuff you should have declared. Everyone should have declared during the hour you had to prepare. In my defense, I wasn't playing Rurik at that time. Yeah, I have no excuse. I can. It's not a problem.
00:36:09
Speaker
okay um Okay, Bal is going to, is this, is the center of the platform that I'm on? Is that, is it flat? Is there yeah something blocking it? No, no, everything's flat. Bal's going to move directly into the center of his current platform.
00:36:24
Speaker
ah Scoot a quick eye to alpha and say, just like old times, and at Third level, I'm going to cast Heat Metal on trial 472. Oh shit, it's all fucking metal. Yes you are. I am melty man. fish must go blame on mother flame I motherfucker. Is exactly what he's thinking.
00:36:54
Speaker
ah so Because it's level 3, it's 3d8 immediately, ah which is a good roll. That is 18 points of fire damage, because he if he's made of metal, I'm assuming he is and kind of immediately yeah that lit up, but he needs to make a consave.
00:37:13
Speaker
But I think it's, it says if he's wearing or holding an object, he he is the object. yes ah He can't drop what he is, I suppose. um But if he fails a con save, he'll have disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks until the start of my next turn. So it is a con 15. You got a 15.
00:37:36
Speaker
He got 15. Oh, so sorry, yeah, yeah. then he is He still takes the damage, yeahp but he doesn't have disadvantage. Thank you. Do you reapply the damage on his turn or your turn? My turn, like in bonus action to to pump it in. so just Top of the round. pump it ppe Unless you want to do anything else, Bart. That is his action. It's bonus action.
00:37:55
Speaker
is if it's within 60 feet of him, he'll get the wildfire spirit to blast, again, this, the the closest threat um in front of him. So, 40 feet away from you. Okay, well, there we go. All these circles that have appeared, this is someone's... My bad. ...planning. Classic. No, it's not planning, it's me not knowing how this fucking program works and doesn't know how to get rid of them. I'll get rid of them. 16. Thank you. It's a 16 to hit. ah What are you using, sir? This is my wildfire spirit.
00:38:24
Speaker
16 mid speeds. Okay, fantastic. In which case it will take seven points of fire damage. Perfect. Thank you very much. It is top of the round. It is trial 472's turn and you're just all gonna hear target acquired and it's gonna rotate to your platform.

Intense Combat and Strategic Maneuvers

00:38:43
Speaker
And it is going to charge with an almighty speed and it is going to
00:38:52
Speaker
Yep, it's gonna do it. You watch as it charges straight to your platform, hulking, running like an ape. And its front arm is going to be sort of raised, and it's gonna sort of improvise running for the last couple of steps, and it's gonna do this huge sweep, and it's gonna attempt to hit but's go to attempt hit both Alpha and Baal. Ooh, nice. Alpha, the hit against you is a 16 against your arm class.
00:39:20
Speaker
my
00:39:24
Speaker
21 against your spell. Yeah, we'll hit. Does that include the plus one from Alpha's thing I gave you? andt think it was plus e nine plus i do it oh sorry You take 14 points of bludgeoning damage and you'll push back 10 feet.
00:39:41
Speaker
five you're on the edge okay yeah you on the very edge i thought you blessed it like can bless you And then as a bonus action, it's just going to emit a ah lightning-like aura around itself.
00:39:56
Speaker
and you watch as it just starts zapping and it becomes electrically charged. Not sure what else, but it's more than just static. It's the end of its turn. Is the attack just like a cone-style attack? My wildfire spirit would have been five feet above me, so it might have taken... Yeah, yeah, that would have been hit as well. If it needs a separate attack to hit it. Does it have an armor class? It does, yeah. Okay.
00:40:24
Speaker
uh then it would have been a 19 to hit the yeah so it was the same damage that it gave you which was 14 14 yeah that's fine it's still there okay thank you it is also not bad about your it's all still thing there it's all cannon activated there yeah i've had to redo it so what's that thing's armor class oh no the cannon's on me yeah but It's still ah it' still a viable target. if there's a ko name love your your Your creature, your spider thing, would like his steel defender, is still a viable target. It would aim for alpha, not the cannon, wouldn't it? Everything in that arc. Oh yeah, in that case. Do you want to roll an attack for the cannon as well? What size is it? Tiny. That's 22 against the cannon. Yeah, that hits against the cannon. That would take 14 points of bludgeoning damage.
00:41:09
Speaker
Sorry Callum. No, no, it's fine. I thought it was a... i know It is an object. It's Marocha Broken Test's turn. Or should I say the Valkyrie?
00:41:21
Speaker
say that one so that Nix doesn't want to save it. Continuing that flight along the southern edge, you watch as her entire body just sort of moves horizontal and she sort of comes like a bird of prey coming to feast. And she's going to just at the last second pull back her body and dropkick into the core of Emron and attempt to thrust you off the platform i need you to make acrobatics or athletics choice of your own athletics at advantage because i'm enlarged um you've got a 24 to beat fuck you large or um i am i am large knew it well i'm not a medium i'm large
00:42:10
Speaker
for this trouser snake 20 you are pushed back five feet oh now you're pushed in the direction sorry I moved yeah that's yeah that's where I'm pushing you you're pushed into the same direction and you're now occupying the same space as your spiritual weapon you can't occupy the same space so your spiritual weapon is going to have to move five feet my move five feet back as well fine and then after you're knocked in the core the Valkyrie flies a few feet past you and then you just feel a leathery whip
00:42:56
Speaker
wrap around your forearm as just going to attempt to yank you again. Can you make, please, another grapple check?
00:43:06
Speaker
this feels eerily familiar dragged off a cliff eighteen to beat
00:43:15
Speaker
Come on, everyone. Oh, come on, everyone. Pray to a leader. 16. You are pulled again, five feet, and you are grappled. On the edge. You are on the edge. Two of you are on the edge. I need you to relocate your spiritual weapon as well. Does it have to go five feet? It can move more than five feet. It's going to have to occupy a space. Can it go back to where it was originally? No, because so if everyone takes up. It's large now. So it's currently... Sorry, you can't see on the map. Can you see on the map?
00:43:45
Speaker
Yes, it's gonna need to go beneath the stone defender, otherwise it's going to disappear because there isn't a viable space for it. Fine, okay. Sorry, one square below. Oh, thank you. Thank you. Er, Seth, your turn. Ah, fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. If you all just do what Seth wants, then everything would be fine if you just all did what Seth wanted you all to do.
00:44:12
Speaker
If you all just did what I needed you to do, everything would be fucking fine. Seth's gonna turn and with Nick's just over his shoulder, shove the potion into his hands and go, I'm not gonna need this. And then he's gonna turn back, he's gonna take one step forward.
00:44:30
Speaker
and he's gonna line it up and he's gonna pull out a tab again, whisper red smoke between each hand, he's gonna smack his hands together, he's gonna cast second level Shatter on trial, fuck you in the assholes, whatever it's called. Now there is something a little bit interesting about Shatter when it comes to this, a non-magical oh no sorry a creature made of inorganic materials such as stone crystal or metal has disadvantage on the saving throw, it's a con 15 saving throw. Great, and can you tell me about
00:45:02
Speaker
How about My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ? An odd natural one. it's Nice. Okay. You're taking 3d8, which is going to be a tasty little 15.55. What happens to the stone platform your friends are stood on? ah They're not stood on it because I'm centering it. I can't reach all the way to you. It's a 10-foot radius, so I'm centering it on the bridge.
00:45:22
Speaker
Okay. What happens to the bridge made of stone? It says here, non-magic object that isn't being worn or carried also takes the damage if it's in the spells area. Depends if whether or not you deem it an object non-magical or not because otherwise... It's a non-magical bridge. It's all cool. The bridge disappears. Fuck you. It falls down into the coliseum. Is edge? It's on the platform, it's not on the bridge.
00:45:51
Speaker
be There is a 15-foot leap now from your platform to the rest of the stage. It's in the way. But it's in the way. That's not what I intended to do. ah He's also gonna shout whilst doing that, I can't! Over here! As he does it to try and taunt to grab the attention. Not an actual thing but just a free action to let piss it off in some way, draw its attention away and then smack and then break the bridge and then realise, oh fuck.
00:46:18
Speaker
Oops. Thank you. Alpha, Nix, you're up after. Ah, shit. Nix. Is the platform falling or is it still floating? It's falling. It's disintegrated at this point. Was it? So the platform... The platform itself is levitating. It's just the bridge is connected. It's just the bridge it's got. That's fine. Yeah, yeah. The bridge is gone. That's fine. It was the rest of the platform I was concerned about. Right. If the platform's staying there, I'm going to take a little bit of movement and just go to the back end of just like five foot movement diagonally north the east yep I'm gonna attempt to shoot the I'm gonna send my force ballistic cannon and attempt to hopefully shoot this thing off the edge of the platform yes I did that on purpose for this very reason natural 20 okay
00:47:18
Speaker
oh wow so come on maths ah lots of dice 19 points of force damage likeking and it gets pushed back 10 feet 10 feet 10 feet
00:47:38
Speaker
So you knock it into the platform, the main raised platform behind it. It's going to attempt, it's going to attempt to grab a failure or plummet below. Come on, come on, come on, an 18 plus its athletics modifier. So it's it's holding there, it's hovering one hand, grasping grasping on. Okay. Okay. I'm going to take my pistol and I'm going to shoot his hand. Yes! Great. Roll to hit.
00:48:14
Speaker
Natural one. Going down to the spectrum. I'm going to mention now just before anybody else. Roll a d20 for me. Is it not like down or prone? I'm going to break your gun. I know, I have to roll for breaking the gun again.
00:48:30
Speaker
ah 13 on the d20. Ooh, misfire. Yeah, I feel ironic. I've been in terrible. Dammit, kind of whacking the bottom of it his gun now. Is that your turn? Yeah, that's everything I can do. Nix. Nix is...
00:48:49
Speaker
going to piss off some balls. How do you do that? We directly up. find the best I so early to be using fucking big ass motherfucking spells. Next is going to walk into He can do it from there. He can do a lot from here. That's why I was going, I'm going straight in. Have you taken the... You've literally forced it on me. You haven't just dropped it or anything. Because otherwise I'll take it. Keep holding his mouth and nose. Nyx will try and give it back.
00:49:33
Speaker
ah He's walked up, I'm five feet up. Unless you push it into his chest and it's out, it drops. No, no, no, no. It smashes. Right. Nix is moving his move, full movement. Oh, I can't move. um He's doing 30 feet straight towards the center of the main platform, but within the spheric of the dark blue. So he's at the north point. Basically, he's keeping, yep can I ping? Can I ping? Can I ping?
00:49:58
Speaker
Your 30 feet gets you literally just off the centre circle. Yeah. Do you want to be in the centre of the dark side? Right, yeah. Done it. Moved myself. You moved you. I don't know why you moved you. Thank you. And from there, he's going to... He's going to look over at Marota because he's seen what's happened to...
00:50:18
Speaker
yeah yeah he's sitting what's happened to everyone or woody as he's making that and then he hears the so the almighty crash as the bridge that seph inadvertently destroyed and then on purpose smile alpha he he recognizes there's an opportunity he here to get rid of big beastie man uh so he's going to turn his back on the road in emeron with a apologetic look over in your way as he does so and he's going to close his eyes and then as he opens them this purple electricity starts to come from them and that electricity curses down his shoulders through both of his arms and at the point they reach his fingertips he's gonna push both hands down into the ground and cast shatter
00:51:05
Speaker
where the big godly gook guy is kind of hanging on. It's disadvantage again yep on the cons save. You can teleport me, right? Depends on how. So cons, 14. Yeah, board of 15. Disadvantage. Oh. Left damage. Take half damage. And then your non-magical material around the same thing applies. 3d8 coming at you. 13. Nice.
00:51:36
Speaker
Thank you. Thank you for telling me about the non-magical. As you go to use Shatter on this this area surrounding trial 472, expecting some of the platform to break away, you know, it doesn't. Fuck. The central core remains intact.
00:51:56
Speaker
It took the damage, but if you can still see that metallic hand grasping. Just how that other platform's still up as well, I suppose. Yeah.
00:52:06
Speaker
Nice, though. Yeah. Fuck! Says Nick's. I thought that was going to work. Good idea. That's all I can do. a Oh, no, it's not. Oh, no, it's not.
00:52:31
Speaker
That is all he's gonna do. Okay. Sorry. That's not all he can do. High stakes. Yeah, high stakes. As it's round two, something happens part of the way through it. A wind blows. Of course. Of considerable strength. It will blow from one of eight directions, determined by the eighth.
00:52:53
Speaker
Okay. It is gonna be a east to west gale. Everyone is going to have to make ah a strength saving throw. Or they are all the character tokens are all going to move right. Strength saving. It's its a east to a west blow. That's moving everybody. Left. That's left on that. Left, apologies. Left to left or right? It's moving everyone. The wind is blowing from right to left. Everyone was taking it and we shifted left. So I need you all to make strength saving throws please.
00:53:32
Speaker
Okay.
00:53:39
Speaker
Next. 17. Somehow. You move five feet to the left. Whoa. You move one square. Bow. With Alpha's fancy armor upgrade, did it let me add my say intelligence saving throw or just intelligence score? Do you know? I believe you said intelligence score. If it was the modifier, it's 17. Roll to 17. Five feet to the left. Shift your token. I'll do it for you. from ah Alpha.
00:54:14
Speaker
Yeah, intelligent. Yeah, five. 15 feet to the left. Oh, fuck me. I salute you all. Out into nothingness and you fall. Unless you have anything to protect, prevent, protect you and fall. You fall to near sheer velocity within seconds. Isn't it 500 feet per round? Yep.
00:54:41
Speaker
But he's not bloody, he won't die from this. He'll do die, but he'll be resurrected if he... Rad, don't know if that would work. Fucking hell, it's like nightmares. Squish, yeah wake up from it and remember what happens. Yep. It's good if it wasn't West Wingstone. Just want to double check something with my cannon, because I'm wondering if the DM is doing it. Does rain seem alpha plummet?
00:55:02
Speaker
if I'm gonna throw out a feather fort when I see him. I see him plummet but he won't be he won't be in range till he's almost at... can we post terminal by the time he's in range? Sorry. I tried. It's like holding one of those lids alone. You've got several rounds to work out. Rains would amply be able to prepare a feather fort. Yeah absolutely. But you've got several rounds to work out what happens to come because it's five feet per round. every six seconds No, no, that's fine. I was wondering if I might have been able to leave my cannon there and it's still actually doing some assistance if the DM will permit me to kind of chuck it. i think exactly range of you being alive is it all I have a spell slot saved and I did take Featherfall.
00:55:44
Speaker
featherfall um i will I've got nothing else I can do to
00:55:50
Speaker
bring me back. You might want to wait a bit to cast that though. If you've got over for them, Raines will stand by. I won't be waiting until I'm closer to the ground before I cast that. I'm not going to cast it now because I'll be falling and then just speed up. We've established you're going to be ejected.
00:56:07
Speaker
Yeah? Yeah. Okay. I've got nothing that can get me back to that. ah Just for favour, what will happen when you land on the ground is that a little squirrel will come over and patch you up as best it can. Right, putting some nuts in your mouth.
00:56:20
Speaker
yeah yeah please do what That's what he says every time. they want these Here, motherfucker, will I be falling straight away? I am, although, I am, although. Yeah, you're just blowing straight off with a scale wind. So is it is it out and then on your turn you're, ah. Essentially. 500 feet. It's out and then at the end of the wind set on M1's turn, like everything happens instantaneously when it comes to falling, as we learned when Marota and Nyx fell that turn. And how fast do I fall? 500 feet per round. Per round. So you'll be at the ground in like 12 seconds. Four rounds. Four rounds. Is that right? No, more than that.
00:56:57
Speaker
How many feet in a mile? ah but We're not working that out. and Anyway, you can Google it, you're not doing it. for your your You're out. You're out. Yeah. Well thought, friend. um And M run. I've done everything I can. ah I've got a natural 20, so 22 on that strength saving throw. You do not move.
00:57:14
Speaker
I got 20 not natural. You do not move. Seth. Six. You move 10 feet to the left of you. There is some debris you find yourself able to stand on. But you are not part of the core structure. You are floating on something that shouldn't be.
00:57:35
Speaker
Yes. Does his still defender need to make a roll? Yes, every creature does. Sorry. But you don't you don't have the stats, right? Well, it's not mine. I don't care. He doesn't have the stats. The Valkyrie is already flying. So is it takes the move, but it's relatively unaffected. If the still defender doesn't have a stat block, well I'm just going to roll for it. Yeah, roll for it. roll for it It moves 10 feet to the left. ae yeah But it will knock Rurik. Rurik, I need you to make a dexterity saving throw to keep your footing.
00:58:07
Speaker
Your Steel Defender blows into you and knocks you, Rurik, out. Lovely. And you fall to your absolute death. And he does have Feather Fall. Ah, great. So likely, we'll say he can trigger that at the end. I was waving over at Rurik, we were falling. Hey! Because the voice of Feather Fall lasts a minute and slows you to 60 feet per second. Everyone affected by the effects of wind. Emron, over to you. Rurik and the Steel Defender are gone. You are grappled, so your speed is zero. Yeah.
00:58:38
Speaker
Everyone's gonna look at the Valkyrie with her wings and everyone's gonna be like, I can do that too and he's gonna hold his camera in the air and be like, in a leader's name! Take angel form! I've got wings too, bit! I remember that! remember that as well. So because I was aware that obviously found defeat because if I do angel form after falling from defeat there's no way I'm going back to the fight. Nice. So I was like,
00:59:01
Speaker
that's it so and then um bonus action uh i'm going to cast searing spike on my hammer it's gonna light up nice okay the wind do anything to the uh um gimp mask 176 well i'm pleased you asked so it blew in a favorable direction for him anyway oh yeah good i was worried for him so if anything it just brought him back onto the good i'm gladly safe i was checking
00:59:30
Speaker
Good luck next, it's you and him. ah ripped out ba Yeah. Barl, it's you. Cool. There's gonna be a very quick outfit. Oh, fuck! I know that. Sorry, if I need you to check whether or not your potion retains when you change form. It doesn't, it literally just says, um everything you're wearing at Carrie's, change the size of their any other job, and the thing doesn't matter, it just says you just changed form. To Google something like, if you wild shape, do you still get the benefits of a potion? Please continue that. That's fine.
01:00:02
Speaker
ah and he's lost concentration on heat metal um with the massive smash that he's been taken by this big metal thing we've all been there not used to a big metal thing and he is going to ah run the 5, 10, 15 feet to the edge of the platform yep with his bonus action get his wildfire spirit to fly 5, 10, 15 feet over the top of him yep and he's going to leap and do his fiery teleportation to land in the centre of the platform, 15 feet if I can.
01:00:39
Speaker
um i'm Basically 15 feet from where he is towards the centre of the platform. I obviously can't move myself, I don't know where that would get him but it'd be useful to see if someone's willing to to bring me across.
01:00:53
Speaker
and Okay, so am I still I'm within attack opportunity range room. Yep. Okay, cool. So that's my bonus action ah He is going to do not take damage from the fiery teleportation thing if if he if it's within five foot of it was like five foot of the explosion Ten feet of the explosion then you've ended up five at the side of it. Yeah, it's fines so um ah but he's gonna turn around and he is just going to
01:01:22
Speaker
bellow
01:01:25
Speaker
basically take a massive deep breath in and just bellow it out into a Thunderwave. Only at first level but I need a Con save. I know he's going to be good with Con but Con save from 17. Yeah, just passes. So he will take... fucking hell, 3 points of Thunder damage.
01:01:52
Speaker
As he's hit by this thunder damage, it seems to resonate with the electrical energy that's moving around his body. And he becomes a bit more animated. Bloody hell. OK. How much movement do you think I'll have left then? If I use 15. OK. So I've got 15 feet of movement left. So you have 15 remaining. I'm going to do it. I'm going to run 15 feet into the, I know it's a tackle opportunity, but 15 feet into the center. OK.
01:02:21
Speaker
10, 15, right to the very middle. Yeah, that's where he's trying to get to just basically to this Arguably the safest point with regards to that the ship is going on for a physical. Yes, there will be an attack of opportunity yeah not um ah So He's able to add his charge to this that is a 19 to hit oh ah As Baal's running away and he knows the blow is coming in, he is going to expand his spectral wings out the back, which is going to divert the blow, pushing his AC up to 30 for it. Nice. um And to get himself into the centre. Okay. yeah Great. Thank you very much, Baal. Top of the round, it is trial 4.72's turn.
01:03:02
Speaker
This thing is beaten, like it's bruised and battered, but it is there is this electrical current moving at a rate of knots around it. And what it's going to do is it's going to, unlike its last through most few motions that have been very rampagey and chaotic, it is going to quite controllily move due west.
01:03:24
Speaker
behind eunuchs great great and it is going to just on all fours press down to the floor and it is going to release all of its lightning energy in a single line through eunuchs through ball and out i need you both to make dexterity saving throws please come on guys come on next and see what you got buddy
01:04:05
Speaker
you both take 27 points of lightning damage fall is down
01:04:17
Speaker
Next. Oh my. But that got me. Yeah. As I point to... Yeah. That got me in that dam. And it announces entering self-destruct mode. Oh for fuck's sake, says Nix out loud. It is the Valkyrie's turn and the Valkyrie is going to with the same grip yeah on you, Emron, now Tylwar,
01:04:44
Speaker
Did you retain the effects of the potion? So it doesn't, that I've literally looked for it, there's nothing about. So wild shape obviously, when you change into wild shape, the creature you're changing into has a specific size category. Obviously that overpowers it, but obviously radiant soul is just, um basically everything with within large, everything grows bigger. All radiant soul does is give me wings with for me.
01:05:13
Speaker
Sounds like a DM choice. What was the potion? It's a potion of growth and basically it creates the enlarged spell for 1d4 hours, a roll of two, so it's two hours, no concentration required. There was going to be an attempted pull and then seeing that you also produce wings. The Valkyrie is going to beeline for a completely different target.
01:05:43
Speaker
and it's going to fly do it in this range? It's going to activate the step of the wind. It's just going to fly above Baal. Baal, you're just going to hit feel this whip crack across your back.
01:06:11
Speaker
Bitch. Well, didn't crit. So it's one. If it hits me with a melee attack, it's an instant crit. So that's two stacks. yeahp Somebody help Paul.
01:06:26
Speaker
is it Is it rain? No, it's in its reach, isn't it? Yeah. The whip. Why didn't I send you up with the squirrel? I'm so sorry. Step of the wind will get the Valkyrie all the way to the east side of the central platform. That is the Valkyrie's turn. Seth. Floating.
01:06:43
Speaker
A good distance from... You need a decent strength or the mid-step in order to make that because it's a... It looks like to the bridge. i ah five It's a five foot leap. I've got um what we're looking at, just general strength. Strength more than five, which I think you have. Yeah, so you could make that leap just as part of your regular movement. And he would have... Did everyone hear the self-destruct sequence thingy? Yeah, it's loud.
01:07:11
Speaker
And we've seen Bol go down.
01:07:18
Speaker
um Yep, yep, yep, yep, okay, fine. im He's gonna, shit, he's gonna jump.
01:07:33
Speaker
onto the platform and then take one more step in kind of like just making sure his footing is on he'll look to ball and he's going to misty step to it next to him it's the bonus action spell and then he's going to try again and stabilize Oh shit, that's much better. Fuck this. I gave it, everyone should have two. Can I use two? I'm just clicking things at the moment. So roll a d4 bar. You can roll it if you want. 2d4 plus 2. Is it 2d4 plus 2? No, he basically... I should have changed someone before. It was a NPC. It was fine.
01:08:17
Speaker
six you still lived amazing thank you so bow your back up on six and um bonus action that counts as an action and your movement and i've got that so i've got nothing i have got some movement i only move 15 feet so with that i'm just going to turn to ball on the floor gonna slap his face pull the potion down and go get the fuck away from trial six sport whatever i he's gonna peg it and 15 more feet away diagonally away towards the platform and where the trial creature was first on um but no he's not actually he's gonna move towards everyone move towards everyone he needs we need something we need to stick together at this point and he looks like he's
01:08:58
Speaker
flying but he could do with a cover because everyone's in the air, Marotta's in the air, this thing's gonna blow. Yeah, so he he he moves one way then moves the other, he's not sure where he's going. Mark's not sure where he's going. Okay. Another Seth. um And that's where he's gonna go and he's gonna stick there and nothing else I can do at the end. Next. Do I know that Bal's got a chance to move before that thing explodes. You were facing Bal the whole time. This thing sort of came behind you and did that lightning bolt, so you've seen that all happen. Okay, Bal's up. Mm-hmm. Well, Bal's not stood up yet. Conscious. Do you have a time before he goes? All right, cool. Okay, well, um thanks, Seth. You were doing what I was gonna do. so I fucking love that. I need to get the fuck away from him. Yup, yup, yup, yup, yup, I do.
01:09:49
Speaker
I hope I do. i'm Sorry, I had an action all planned and it's it's just gone in that last turn. I i and don't trust the explosion on this guy. How's 90 feet? Is it 90 feet? Oh, I don't know. A big explosion. That's a risk, isn't it? We didn't know how big the explosion was gonna be.
01:10:16
Speaker
and can that's i'll check you out sorry What is that in where he does that? That's a show. I only got it from somewhere. Is that the like the golf one? Well, we're waiting. Yes. What is that? there I don't know what film it is, but it's the guy in the crowd like, well, we're waiting. Happy Gilmore. Happy Gilmore. Thank you, David. There you go. I didn't know what you were talking about, but I couldn't tell you the film. Thanks, Will. That's why you got me, bro.
01:10:48
Speaker
I wonder if Alf was still falling at this point.
01:10:53
Speaker
It's 5,280 feet to a mile. Because 10 rinds are falling yeah and all the arm is falling. And all feather falls is slowly to 60 feet per. Yeah, I have to pretty much be next to the ground. be before i like There is enough time. Because feather falls last for only one minute. yeah There is enough time to get that right. Nix is going to move his full distance. Fuck, fuck, fuck.
01:11:19
Speaker
which is 30 feet away away from this guy. Five, 10, 15. As he passes bow, just a look down, make sure that your heart is beaten. He's now. Yep. 20, 25, 30. Oh. Oh, no. Oh, do I have to disengage? Well, you don't have to. Don't have to, but it might get bumped on the edge, I reckon.
01:11:49
Speaker
but If I missed his step, I don't have to do it. He ain't got a ship. Nick's just gonna turn and purple. Smoke will start billowing out from the top of his horns, and in a snap, he disappears, and he will appear 30 feet down north. that South, south, south. Yay! All right, so you got this. Wait, there's the ground. 15, 20, 25, 30. Sorry, I already made you. Thank you so much. In line with Seth, but yeah, two squares to the right. um And he's going to sink a potion of healing.
01:12:28
Speaker
Which is 2d4, is that correct? Plus two. Plus two. Which is my final one of those. And he's still getting movement, that's what I did. Yep. Six, seven, eight. That's all right. Nice. That's all right. That's all right. Is that a 10? No, I'm so sorry. 10.
01:12:54
Speaker
Fucked up D and&D beyond, so I have to write my health here. um but Okay, I've still got movement, so Nix is still just not sure about anything that's going on. He's really- his mind is fucking split, man. Like, there's Marota, there's Baal, Baal went down, he's aware of the bloodied contract.
01:13:15
Speaker
ah he's all the time he's thinking about marota but watched em ron get fucked by marota and em ron's the strongest person he knows so no damage no i look dangerous yeah i don't know it just looked dangerous and then so much things so many things are going through his head he's watched uh em uh alpha get fucking yeeted he's just in a bit his mind is chaos he he thrives in chaos but this is too much for him he's gonna move uh
01:13:42
Speaker
Five foot more, so he's on the edge of that blue circle. And, yeah, no, not next to you, just one to the right. Thank you, just a little bit of gap. That's the end of my turn. Okay. I think that's everything I can do. That is everything I can do. And I've fucked up my last bar swap. The wind blows in one of eight directions.
01:14:09
Speaker
Okay, it blows from north to south so I need everyone to make strength saving throws, please including me some flying ah Yeah, yeah still shift moves 10 feet to the south mix 14 you move one sorry one five feet is that one block one square to the south okay i can i can handle that you move one feet to the south are you prone still
01:14:54
Speaker
Oh, natural one for trial 4-7-2, he moves. One, two, three, no. Oh my god. Five. Sorry, it's 25 feet to the sound. I thought you were about to yeet Nick's off with him. No, more the, the explosion, yes. The bomb's been moved. Emron, but, but, but. Eighteen. Thank you. You don't move.
01:15:21
Speaker
Seth. 18. You don't know. Fuck. Damn it. It's Emron's turn. So, Emron will fly 30 feet across the bridge from where he is and be just behind Seth.
01:15:44
Speaker
He will then raise his hammer once more and cry, in Alito's name, his fear protects you. I'm going to cast Bless at second level on Player Party. Oh, thank you Alito. Thank you so much. ah My hammer stopped lighting up because I was concentrating on that, but I'm now putting on Bless. Thank you very much.
01:16:09
Speaker
And then the hammer will also follow me, moving 30 feet.
01:16:19
Speaker
Bar. Bar is in a very sticky situation with an explodey boy right on top of him. He's prone. ah So he's gonna go fucking humiliating and wild shape into a warhorse.
01:16:38
Speaker
What? Wings? Nope. no but I'll shape into a warhorse. Don't you have that cloak? Use half my movement speed to stand up and then I've got 30 feet of movement speed to get the fuck away click clock from the guy in the middle and I'll take the attack of opportunity no problem. Where are you moving? Oh fuck me. and Southwest?
01:16:58
Speaker
You can move through me, don't forget. The thing is, it might not be a wise idea to get too close to Valk, but it wouldn't be a wise idea to get too far away from other people. I think because it's the the the the quickest way to get away from this guy who I know or I assume is going to go boom soon would be to the east. You can move through me without... but i don't want I don't want to get near the edge. I'm not getting near the edge. I'm basically, I want to get myself probably about, I've only got 30 feet of movement speed, but Valkyrie, is she flying up in the air? Yeah. yeah how heart How high up? ah She's only 10 feet above the air. Okay. So, i'll I'll take myself off the inner disk, if you like. That's how far out I want to go. I don't want to go any further out to the edge, knowing full well what can happen here, but I don't... And I rolled a crit on the opportunity attack. That's okay, that's not a problem. Go. It's a problem. No, it's not. You'll did revert back to normal. Then roll over to his weapon.
01:18:03
Speaker
28 points. It is a problem. I gave myself 19 temporary hit points, which has then put me back to the six that I had, which obviously ticks it over again. It's not enough to instakill, fortunately, but I'm downed at his feet once more.
01:18:21
Speaker
Sorry, man. That's right. That's right. that I mean, if I had disengaged and stood up, I'd still only get 15 feet away, so. OK. Okay. Anything else while you can't? and I can. I've got a bonus action. But you're down. wild fast yeah Yeah, but when I'm down, my Wildfire Spirit takes any action it wants.
01:18:42
Speaker
ah And it is going to fly over my body and teleport me 15 feet to the party. okay
01:18:57
Speaker
Okay. Just for you. It less affects death saving throws. Cool. so So I can get myself to the feet of Seth Emron and well between Seth and and nice Nick. i yeah yeah There's what I can get myself back to. It's the top of the round.
01:19:16
Speaker
the self-destruct engages and I need everyone in the 30 foot radius of...

Chaos Unleashed: Self-destruct Sequence

01:19:21
Speaker
Fuck! everyone it I need you all to make dexterity saving throws, please. I'm going to use Tides of Chaos. 20 feet you say? 30. 30? That's, yeah. It doesn't matter, I'm still trigonometry, yeah. Everyone except... Everyone except Marota. It's what she knew. Everyone in yours will be, sorry,
01:19:45
Speaker
Till where yours will be at advantage. because you're Are you airborne? Yeah. Yeah. Yours will be at advantage. um um miss this I searching. How is Barcel up?
01:20:08
Speaker
It's not. Given a potion. Wild shaped. No, he was down at your feet, wasn't he? Yeah, then it's Wildfire Spirit. Thank you, I misheard that. Okay.
01:20:20
Speaker
Nyx. I used Tights of Chaos to give myself advantage and I got a five and a seven. Say seven.
01:20:33
Speaker
a fail y'all ball 11 fail if i can make one i don't think you can make one add your plus fours to it please oh yeah add bless i don't know if you can make as i can i make it you can i checked in capacity unconscious i don't think it will make sense to try and bless bless affects death save and frozen should affect but it's whether or not it affects this explosion which i don't know i can't i can't avoid the explosion i'm sorry um so with bless 1 on the blesser, 8. Sorry. while if you gave me a chance While you fail. yeah
01:21:08
Speaker
Till what? 19. Succeed, sir. 27. Succeed. Those who succeeded, you take 11 points of thunder the damage.
01:21:23
Speaker
and nothing else happens. Those who failed take 22 points of thunder damage and are pushed back 20 feet.
01:21:33
Speaker
um you guys are like that Is that just a fail for you? You're in line with the bridge. So here's what happens. Nyx holding the potion of feather fall is shot back 20 feet.
01:22:02
Speaker
off the arena top that's cool and and and nix also has the ability to cast feather thought on himself however he was knocked out from that explosion and as his lifeless body flies 20 feet out in the distance that's the end of nix
01:22:30
Speaker
Okay, Baal, what happens to you? You are propelled back 20 feet. He's unconscious. he's he's The last thing he saw was being underneath this thing, saying, well this is fucking stupid, and converting himself to run to his friends. So the last thing that he saw was his friends.
01:23:08
Speaker
Trar 472 is no longer on the map. There is this moment where Seth and everyone you watch as they are propelled.
01:23:29
Speaker
What do you do to continue to act because there is still active combat? Are they falling too fast for me to go and catch them? Not yet, but you can only catch one.
01:23:45
Speaker
How many rounds has it been since I fell? You're still falling. Well, this is what I'm wondering. If I see one fall... You are half a mile away. I could But you're also 60 foot like away from the displaced point.
01:24:04
Speaker
it be challenging we could try and do this in a falling motion we could try they'll be making death before they even got you they'll be making a handful of death saves at least i'm falling okay i know what everyone's going to do okay it don't want to say now or what uh so in that moment if this is all happening in that same six second sequence what do i have to wait for my turn so
01:24:33
Speaker
Just confirm for me how much was the damage that Nick stuck? 22. 22. Oh he fucking is dead. What is the KFC piece of burnt chicken? So, I need to work out. Well as in he is below his own HP? No, no, no. Do you remember the bit that took bar unconscious? Do you remember how much damage that was?
01:24:52
Speaker
uh yeah it wasn't much it was a whip so it was a d4 it was no more than eight no not not that one the the the opportunity attack that knocked him because he had 19 temp hp uh plus the six which took him over so it was 25 it was there was it was a big crit but i was like 26 something in that region yeah that's fine just because i it's useful to know with the extra damage if that takes me past. It's got to be in one go. and's got a damn okay It's not like you going down in minuses. Everyone's used to it. Everyone, you'd need an action to grab. You wouldn't be able to dash. Fine.

Last Stand and Tactical Decisions

01:25:33
Speaker
Which means the only bar is in your range. I know. Thank you. So.
01:25:39
Speaker
We'll go down this in order. It is Marota's turn. And Marota is just going to walk to the center of the platform, the main platform. Well, run. Whip out and enters a defensive stance, looking at Seth and looking at you. but She has grounded herself. She's not in the air anymore. Seth, it's your turn.
01:26:04
Speaker
ah
01:26:10
Speaker
He's seen death in war. He looks back and sees them skid off the edge of the platform into the abyss below.
01:26:24
Speaker
There's nothing he can do to stop them. And his mind's made up. They both made a decision.
01:26:35
Speaker
And now Saf's got to finish it. He doesn't know what everyone's going to do. He's been with the group longer. He might do something different, but he knows what he needs to do. He needs to win that fucking egg.
01:26:50
Speaker
And just in a second, he's going to reach down to one of the very few tabs he has left, counts them one, two, three, and then one of any potency.
01:27:01
Speaker
Yanks it out and this is last third level spell and very slowly, incredibly slowly the sword forms in his hand again as he turns towards the Valkyrie and says either you or I or both.
01:27:21
Speaker
and then can't drop into bladesong because there's a bonus action but it will drop into a stance an attacking stance he'll take a lunge forward stand up straight nah not quite yet he's gonna cast shatter okay I can't cast Shatter because I've already cast a spell. So he's not, he's gonna he's just... It was a really setup man, I fucked it up didn't I? That's a bonus action. So for all his action, okay he's just going to... um
01:27:56
Speaker
drop into a defensive stance equally and just drop into the beginning of his blade song without actually starting blade song officially and just start moving through the motions without any dirge and just preparing himself eyes locked on Valkyrie. It shouldn't be him here. It shouldn't be him now, but it is. So he'll drop into stance ready to fight. Okay. i Dodging. Dodging. Action. Yeah. Thank you. Nix. You are hurtling down.
01:28:24
Speaker
unable to, you're making saving throws. So I need you to make a saving throw. If you're down, down, did you say? Yeah, I'm down, down. I need you to make a saving throw, please. Oh god, imagine coming too. There's no maximum range on the left. Only casting. Did you roll concentration on when you were hit? I did not. Can you roll concentration, please? 11. Right, so you can add a d4 to your Okay. Um, is he falling 500 feet we at the end of the round? did He's falling 500 feet now. If he's gone, I understand. He's failed his first death save in the sky. Okay. Thank you. Shit.
01:29:05
Speaker
Emron, Tilla, only one of your companions is in reach. I know and I i hoped that Nix wasn't going to fall at that point because I could have healing worded him. Fuck me. Emron will swoop towards the only person left to swoop for and that's Balm because Nix is gone.
01:29:24
Speaker
uh and it's that's my action yes to to to grab to grab him how is your action and then i'm gonna as i'm doing that with my bonus action i'm gonna cast healing word on bal okay and he takes two d four plus three um healing okay oh yeah you're back okay and it is now your turn It's only five,
01:29:55
Speaker
10 feet to him. Can I then- Sorry, you have some more 10? Yeah, do you want- I was then going to drag him back on over, so that's 10. Get away from me, bro. It's more like you, as a reaction to that explosion, were just able to quickly grab him. You had to sort of fly out a little bit, yeah grab him, and then get him back to safety, and that was like your entire turn, with your bonus action to heal as well.
01:30:15
Speaker
Okay, so there's no more movement. I'm just hovering with him, right? i said Well, you landed him back. Yeah, okay. That's essentially what your term would be. Some liberties there just for, you know, sake of instant. I wanted him to get him onto the safe ground. Okay. And heal him. Okay. What was the healing? It was 2d4p3. Are you rolling it or? You can roll it, mate. If you want to. um Yeah, your spell. here I'm rolling. Shit, okay. Oh, that's 11 points for PO. Yes.
01:30:42
Speaker
Love that. Top of the round, Marota is going to swing this whip and crack it a few times against the ground and it begins to just alight with this bright energy. And then she is going to make a swipe at you, Seth. With disadvantage. With disadvantage because you're dodging, thank you.
01:31:05
Speaker
ah 16. Misses. is going to make a second attack. At disadvantage.
01:31:17
Speaker
He has even less 14. Miss. He dodges at the first one, dodges at the second. He smiles. I haven't even started yet. Smiling back. Spends a key point. And is defensive again. That is her turn. Seth, it's you.
01:31:35
Speaker
Thunderclap. It's the, again, grabs a ah ah token from his pocket yep and it's a click of his fingers and he fires at the shots and it's like the Thunderweight thing he's done earlier. It's a shutter, but a smaller version of it's a constitution saving throw. It's like 15 to pass.
01:31:59
Speaker
15. Beats, beats. So that is...
01:32:07
Speaker
ah succeed it doesn't say about taking half damage so no damage okay And then we'll take the bonus action, then we'll start the dirge, then we'll drop into bladesong, up in AC, up in deck saves, and we'll move five feet closer towards her, but this dirge song, the the blade starts spinning round, he drops even lower into stance, and you hear this humming and he just Staring at Marota, he's buying time. okay I'm wanting to make sure whatever's happening behind, because he can hear shuffling and noise. yeah yeah yeah Sorted before anything truly kicks off and he he promotes himself towards a combat. Thank you. Thank you. It's Nix's turn. Want to say please? No. You might get a 20. Could go, could go 20. No, but it is a success at least. 16. Okay. One fail, one success. Emeril.
01:32:59
Speaker
so So, Bal is awake, conscious. um Is it an action for me to give him one of my potions, not pour it down his neck? with a white Using an item, yes. So I'm going to use an item and I'm going to give him one of my healing potions and pour it down his neck.
01:33:15
Speaker
ah but That's 2d4 plus two, I'll roll if you want. You take another eight points of healing. Fuck yeah, all your rolls are coming out now, Will. And then Seth feels this flap of wings behind him, and everyone's going to move around and go towards Marota. And could Marota make a con saving throw, please? Yes. That's terrible. Nine. She's blinded.
01:33:44
Speaker
Okay, nice. whale on And then um as a bonus action, the hammer comes round and attacks her. Okay. That's it. With advantage, I'm imagining because you are... Attacking a blinded creature.
01:34:06
Speaker
with vantage That's a 10 or a 23. which 23, yeah, hit. 1d8.
01:34:21
Speaker
ah She takes 7 points of force damage. That's the first piece of damage she's taken, or combat. Thank you very much. Anything else for your turn? No, because my action was to blind her. Okay, Bart, you're up.
01:34:36
Speaker
uh so obviously the last thing bar remembers is that run about friends falling unconscious now kind of lying down on the surface this this thing with em run over the top of them he knows nothing of of of what almost befell him and what's currently befalling nix uh and so he's going to get up and see that everyone's wailing on uh
01:35:08
Speaker
Morota the Valkyrie and he's going to kind of yeah stand up and join in and basically just say make sure you don't kill her give her a chance and he's going to cast Ironically. Scorching Ray. And second level. Nice. Which you can't do for the lethal village. I know, I know, but she's only got two. But she's got a heart. Yeah, yeah. So it's... Oh dear, where's me dice? Let's go for this one. and That's a shite 112. Tough misses.
01:35:43
Speaker
uh it's a 16 uh misses and a 20 five three yeah hits nice okay um so she'll only take because i because she was dodging wasn't she and as she's blinded no she patient oh yeah sorry i shouldn't have been at advantage so straight roll so that's what i've done straight rolls yeah currently because of that but um yeah it's nine points of fired can you three roll your to hit yes of course um
01:36:15
Speaker
9 did you say? Yeah. Great. It's 25. Perfect. That's fine. Thank you. Okay, and bonus action. Wildfast Spirit, it who is still up at this point, is going to return to my side and fire off another thing at the Valkyrie. It misses. Okay. It's the wind's turn.
01:36:41
Speaker
sorry East to West. I need everyone to make strength saving throws.
01:36:50
Speaker
super On my screen, I'm going to go from who's in the least danger to who's in the most danger. So, Enron. Tilwa, what did you roll? 19. No movement. But the Valkyrie rolled a 14, so he's moving five feet. So you're shunted by the Valkyrie, five foot to the left.
01:37:11
Speaker
ah Seth unnatural I'm sorry 21 you are not moved and you're not moving this shunt either bile 16 No movement Nix doesn't really affect you, but you whatever are shifted a bit. Yeah, you're not just my choppy sees alpha doesn't really affect you You were also shifted a bit eventually you'll hit the ground. It is Marota's turn and blinded panicking It's going to disengage and bonus action, step of the wind and ascend in her wings way above the stage. How far? be a Full range of movements, they'll be 80 feet in the air.
01:37:53
Speaker
God damn. That's her turn. bit She gets to make the saving throw again at the end of her turn. Against the blind. Against the, yes. What modifier, sorry? It's a con modifier. 22. First passage, she's no longer the blinded. Great. Thank you very much. and It was worth it for that one round. Seth, your turn. Just coming back, get ready. As you're dropping the stance, it's going to turn around um and kind of just look at where people are lying in relation to to Morota and we'll drop into Dodge.
01:38:22
Speaker
um
01:38:26
Speaker
And then, yeah, that's all he can do. He's still blade singing, blade still out, waiting, um and just ready to to dodge an attack. This isn't going to work. When the Valkyrie gets within 20 feet, he's going to throw his shadow blade at her face. Okay. Great. Thank you very much. That's the condition. When he gets, she gets within 20 feet of him, throw the blade. Thank you. Next.
01:38:53
Speaker
say Don't forget your plus four. Come on, buddy. It's not bad. It's about the 20, isn't it? Yeah, it is. That's a fail. Even with plus four? Everyone.
01:39:09
Speaker
So she's flown up in the air. She's 80 feet eighty straight away. My flight speed's only 30, so I can't get close to her. Is Baal still on the floor? No, I'm up. He's up. You're up.
01:39:24
Speaker
um
01:39:28
Speaker
Enron will turn, look over his shoulder at Baal, and be like, come on Baal, Alido's not done with you yet, and I'm going to once more cast Healing Word at second level on Baal.
01:39:43
Speaker
okay
01:39:46
Speaker
and he will receive six, nine points of healing. And then my action is to take the dodge action. And then Ron prepares for whatever is coming his way. Thank you. Bal. Okay, Bal is feeling invigorated now um with this. He's gonna kind of take a step forwards, or two step forwards, so kind of in with his group of friends where he is.
01:40:14
Speaker
And so I'm going to try something new might be fucking stupid next watch this and he's going to turn to the sky and he is going to channel Something that he learned from the druids of Shondralakar He's going to cast a level three sleep storm, but 80 90 100 feet up in the sky okay encompassing your range on that 150 feet okay so encompassing um the valkyrie basically what happens is there's a 20 foot tall cylinder um that will encompass and it's 40 foot radius so there's 80 feet the sky basically turns to to sleep and and
01:40:56
Speaker
and it's gonna rain snow on us, but it means that the area is heavily heavily obscured, and if there's any ground in that area, which there isn't, it's covered with ice making it double terrain, but when a creature enters the spells area for the first time on a turn, or starts its turn there,
01:41:13
Speaker
um It must make a deck saving throw. On a failed save it falls prone. okay Which does affect playing cricket, so bring it down. And would that sleep fall? Eventually, depending on your wind that you've got, maybe not, but with because he's cast a spell, like I said, about 100 feet up.
01:41:34
Speaker
Well it melts. There's an 80 foot cylinder that's coming straight but down at the moment. The spell technically says, yeah, a 20 foot tall cylinder. 40 feet wide. But yeah, it's obviously gonna fall from that, but yeah, how that goes from that point in psychology. But I'm gonna need, because as she started to turn there she hasn't entered the spell. No, so she starts to turn there. So on her turn she'll just say, just keep the spell

Tragic Loss and Unexpected Revival

01:41:58
Speaker
at hand. Exactly right, so that that's what he's doing. Oh, it's her turn. So, she's starting her turn there. What modifier again? It's a deck, so she's gonna be good at it, but... Nice play there, man. Yeah. It works. It works. I thought it would come. That's 18 on the deck. Yeah, she passes. Okay. But she is basically once again blinded. She's heavily obscured in the sky. Okay. As this, yeah, as this is falling down around her. Good plan, that. She's going to beeline and drop and come straight for you.
01:42:28
Speaker
and your, she will manage this. Go to need to contest the grapple. Yeah. um She's going to come within range. Yes. So throw are your thingy. This will be where it's a woop woop throw. Add your d4.
01:42:40
Speaker
Thank you. Eight, 12 plus seven, 19 to hit. 19 hits. It is one of a great. 18 points of um psychic damage as he smacks it and then instantly dissipates away and disappears. It's bonus action to reform it. It doesn't cross the spell slot. Nice. And then he's going to turn, that was his action, and he's going to turn and just, yeah, my face.
01:43:08
Speaker
okay great uh what was sorry athletics acrobatics what's your one natural 20 natural 20 if you add your d4 for a 22 plus uh 26 just rub it in she rolled a 24 so oh wow wow whoa well bless me you did well but she's just going to come swoop and fly out the other side of you um uh can i have a reaction doesn't enter your opportunity She's within five feet. If she's gonna grab bottle, there's a space in between. So it was a whip attack above. Doesn't end to that reach. I'm long looking doubled in size. Again, was able to find a route through it on purpose. Sorry. Can I slap a bitch? Can you slap a bitch? Yeah, I've got no weapon. Do you ever reach back in? No, I've just got my fists. You can't reach 10 feet. Oh, she goes 10 feet and tries to grab me with a whip. Oh, with a whip? Yeah.
01:43:58
Speaker
ah yeah again when you yeah
01:44:01
Speaker
But it's Seth's turn. How far? So she was 80 feet up. So she's dropped to, so she's now 60 feet. She's got loads of fucking movement. Yeah. She's now 10 feet, but out over the air. So she's only 10 feet up and a bit above where Ball is? No, she's out here. see we're Out here to the far west. 10 feet above me. There. Okay.
01:44:28
Speaker
Okay, okay, okay.
01:44:34
Speaker
Oh fuck man, I've got nothing that can reach him.
01:44:38
Speaker
and
01:44:41
Speaker
So that's going to quickly retcon and have a quick, have a quick look at everyone. Does anyone look, it reaches out for a health potion and kind of looks towards anyone? Because everyone... Nick's face. Nick's hand goes up and kind of he's going to have a quick look. Does anyone look like they're in a really bad state of affairs? Everyone looks in decent health. He's going to put it back in his and is satchel then and um ah reform the blade with a bonus action. There is a stat that allows me. Can you throw it again? I can throw it again. It'll be a disadvantage. Why? Because it's more, it's 20 feet thrown, but 40 feet.
01:45:19
Speaker
Oh yeah, long throw, long wave. Okay, he moves, so he's right next to Baal, really close to Baal, between Baal and Enron. And the blade forms again, he's going to lob it again with disadvantage at her to see if she can he can do so much damage. And a so that's going to be 24 hit to hit. Fuck me, I know.
01:45:43
Speaker
So that's another 3d8. That's good. That's another 18 points of psychic damage. The blade dissipates again. And he's kind of is he's happy with that. He's fucking happy with that. yeah um And then he's going to take 10 step, 10 feet back into the middle space area. He's aware of the wind and what it can do. And he's, he's knackered at this point. And yeah, that's all he's going to do. And the rotor begins pulling without control.
01:46:10
Speaker
Next. I'm starting to run out of chances here, guys. This is the last one, isn't it? Yeah. and failed or save Well, if I fail, I'm dead dead. But if I save, I've got another one. So, do or die, though.
01:46:27
Speaker
OK, so it's going to be on a D4. What did you get? What have you got? Six. So you need a four. I need a four? I need four. And as Nix is dead before he hits the ground.
01:46:40
Speaker
So Nick's got a seven, which is the end. It was meant to be his time. So before the he even hits the ground, his his soul has left his body. And yeah, that's the end of Nick's chorale. So we have this scene now where there is no obvious threat oh shit there is no obvious threat happening on the platform oh my god Nix and we have Marota plummeting to their depths again again what's happening on the platform if there's no conceivable threat do you want to stay in initiative I'm happy to drop out I'm happy to drop I was gonna turn and say next did you see
01:47:37
Speaker
Nix fell. I couldn't get to him. He's got the potion there, doesn't he, Seth? He was unconscious.
01:47:49
Speaker
Before he fell, he was unconscious. Emron could get to you. He could not get to Nix. He was too far away. I had nothing. But he fell.
01:48:08
Speaker
he's gone ah tried to get both yeah it
01:48:19
Speaker
ball's gonna kind of his knees ah shaking and he's just gonna turn and walk to the edge and just look down. He's not going to be able to see anything and He's he's gone. just going to drop to his knees and just saw. I tried to get both here. I did. Can I have one?
01:48:39
Speaker
following just in case the wind catches it. I'm very conscious of the wind. In this broken initiative the wind's hitting every 12 seconds so I just imagine you're just repositioning back to the same point yeah which is really just the black ring in your map. You can't be blown any further than that as long as you stay with within the black ring. Here it's another place Nick. all We don't know who is watching us. This isn't private.
01:49:09
Speaker
We need to finish this. I've got a scroll of featherfall. So you can win this, Baal. I ah don't have anything. Can you cast featherfall normally? You can count normally in one pass can you cast it up to five people. Is it something that a wizard can cast?
01:49:30
Speaker
I believe so. I cannot cast the scroll, but you can. And it's... ah but You have to check what it... I can... Will can tell you what it does. You need to get flying before this runs out as well. Pardon? You need to get flying before Tilghard runs out.
01:49:44
Speaker
Yes, but the point is that feather fall can affect five creatures. yes But ah Will knows that. and Everyone can't read the scroll because it's not in his spell list. There is the means within your three to understand how to get out there safely. You just need to necessarily elect. Everyone's given you the scroll. I believe you can cast feather fall. Very good. So you could get me and you out, leaving Bali to win.
01:50:08
Speaker
And Seth will instantly open the scroll, start reading cross-checking notes yeah um and just fastidiously looking over bits of, yep, yep, no, I get this bit, yep, no, okay, okay. We'd have to wait until we're quite close to the ground, I believe. Yeah, you just shout when we've worked on this before. Well, we have to jump together to make sure we don't blow away from each other, so hold on to each other. Bal.
01:50:32
Speaker
I'm going to see my minutes up, by the way. Yeah. So the wings fade. It's been M1 this entire time. Tilwa has not spoken. It's been M1 speaking in Tilwa's form. Sorry for calling you Tilwa then. No, it's okay. You didn't know. So you two are exiting? Bar, you win this. I know it's not happened the way we wanted it at all.
01:50:57
Speaker
Come and stand in the middle as you as a champion and we'll take our leave.
01:51:06
Speaker
gets to his feet kind of stumbles almost drunk into the center is going to just have his head down and is if like even just from the distance you are you can almost feel heat emanating from him um
01:51:35
Speaker
fire just starts kind of trickling from his mouth and he is going to just pull his head back and release his breath weapon into the sky. And to so many of those spectating this looks like a roar of triumph. Only you on that platform and your two friends know exactly what this is.
01:52:02
Speaker
Seth will move towards the edge tentatively, um waiting for Emron and waiting for something from Baal to let him know that now's the right time. Emron looks over towards Baal. We'll see you on the ground and we can mourn and celebrate in equal measure.
01:52:23
Speaker
There is the place for the... well, not here. Let's get through this. Sevi. And then he's going to just lean back. and well nick i oh I thought that was the time we were going. I'm going to grab some hold of you. We cannot get too far apart.
01:52:45
Speaker
oh when we cast this, so when you cast this, so... okay. ...Emar grabs hold of his arms like, this is big. I'm loving it, just to remind you as well. I don't want to hit the ground dying. Don't want to hit the ground, don't want to experience that. Emar holds him. Bal, is he on the ground? There's no response.
01:53:07
Speaker
but wins all the way ah school right andre but two three but on three forty And a series of things happen at this point. As the last one on the platform, while you begin to feel it slowly beginning its descent.
01:53:27
Speaker
At ground level range, what you're seeing is this absolute spectacle and then you see Alpha falling out the sky at written knots and you're, you beeline out of the crowd straight onto the floor of that Coliseum and you are there ready to see if your son's okay. He is by the time he lands. But in that time, you're holding him, checking him over, it's 30 seconds, 45 seconds. Behind you, you've missed the impact of other people. And you hear gasps and shocks.
01:53:56
Speaker
As you turn, you see a very slowly descending M-run and Seth. You see a lying flat on the ground. Nyx Carell and the Valkyrie.
01:54:12
Speaker
And Roderick. And? Roderick. And? Rurik. Rurik, sorry. He flew down nicely. He had fell before. He was okay. And as you scan around, you see those three absolutely lifeless.
01:54:30
Speaker
And then, as a few more concerned parties come down, Prago stops in shock and runs over to see the Valkyrie. You all sort of begin to corral around. And you notice something, Seth, you particularly strongly notice this. There's a tattoo on your arm.
01:55:02
Speaker
There's a tattoo on your arm and you know why you were given that tattoo. It fizzes for a moment.

Conclusion and Future Teasers

01:55:12
Speaker
And then the tattoo that looks just like yours and just like Baal's that's on Marota is glowing sheer white mass.
01:55:25
Speaker
And it is beginning to unpeel from her arm. Her now arm is completely returned to orange skin. And that white tattoo turns into a ball of light and travels across the ground. And Nick's corral takes a breath again. What? As Marotta disappears into dust and an object
01:55:55
Speaker
a single whip is all that remains. And that is the end of this week's episode of the Fellowship of the Tabletop. Bellum Draconis. As you show me goosebumps on your forearm. who
01:56:18
Speaker
we be bo not in And we have. yep
01:56:25
Speaker
You would have felt your arm going very painful on the tattoo. And then it just stopped. Still there though. Still there. But you felt it going excruciatingly painful for a moment. I thought you were about to die. I thought you were about to die. I thought you were about to die. Yeah, both of us just got it. Oh no. That was fun. Hey, Mick, do you want to play a joke on ball? Yeah, let's do that fucking thing. You've got to slow yourself as well. Oh, you.
