Game Master and Player Introductions
00:01:04
Speaker
Hello, and welcome to Ever Under Need, an actual play podcast set in the Ever On Campaign setting. I'm your Game Master, Eric. I'm Phillip. I'm Trevor. I'm Randy. I'm Jeff. And welcome to another episode. Gentlemen, what happened last time? Drinks were on me. No, drinks were not. They were also on everyone else. We learned that Aeris is a folk hero in her small part of town now. Yeah, the single-hit Spotify today. Local legend. The Fixer.
00:01:32
Speaker
Yup. That's it. She was embarrassed and then we left. Milo got high off a drink. I have a drink and we found out that Olive has a little bedtime minder for Eris now because she's adorable. And I can't even pretend to flirt. Rainer got hit on some. That's right. By Nessa Moon Shadow.
Daily Intentions Discussion
00:01:50
Speaker
Okay, yeah, so you all went to bed, and start of a new day. Hob, you have the contact info for the warband. So you had talked about going to, is your intention to gather the group and go talk to the warband or go by yourself? You're gonna have to remind me. Or is your intention to not deal with this right now? I guess that's also a valid option. We're gonna deal with it, we're gonna get it done, because there's nothing else to do but wait until something else bad happens. Who's not feeling that way? 100%. Character-wise, right?
00:02:19
Speaker
I still feel pretty good. Fair enough. My question is, does Hobb know if this is a safe thing, a safe meeting for him to go to? Because if so, he would probably take everybody. If not, he might go by himself. Based on the name of it, this would probably be like a Hobgoblin bar, but there's nothing to indicate that it's dangerous. Like you're going to meet with some people that are part of your recruiting efforts. So yeah, I think I take the crew if they'll come.
00:02:44
Speaker
Okay. So what have you have established the night before? Hey, meet me at Sabia's or me at the cauldron or. I think we always meet at four sales, right? Four sales. Are we meeting at four sales right now?
00:02:55
Speaker
I thought we still went back to more sales the night we did. But when talking to pebblefist, he said, be careful because that's still a plain category. Yeah. Yeah. I guess, I guess you are absolutely in your power to meet the cauldron. Then that's our new place to meet up. Okay. Okay. As you, we could meet a sword in spirits. That's also true. Okay. So you all knew that you were meeting back at the cauldron the next morning to take care of this. Who's the earliest riser in the group?
00:03:24
Speaker
I guess Raynard, because Raynard has to sleep the least as an elf. So, Raynard, you were up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed at 8 a.m., ready to go for the day, and head to the cauldron. Raynard feels like a lingerer, though. He doesn't have to, you know, but he's not. Takes a real long shower.
00:03:41
Speaker
Yeah, got up at eight, didn't leave till 10. Arthur watches you get ready throughout the morning, just sitting on the back of a chair. Is he probably anything
Morning Gathering and Small Talk
00:03:49
Speaker
fun? Is there anything new? Fletcher! Have I been back to my apartment since I got broken into?
00:03:57
Speaker
That's a good question, actually. Yes, because we've had nights of rest. We just haven't illustrated you going back to your apartment. I was like, have I been there since I got broken into you? Yes. OK. So Milo, Hob, early risers.
00:04:13
Speaker
Oh, typically is, but he might not have been this particular morning. A little slower. A little slower. Hob has an internal clock that is just for some reason unshakeable. Okay. Yeah, and he wakes up at the same time every day. Okay, tell him to wait for an hour. He'll show up in exactly an hour. It's wild.
00:04:31
Speaker
We can just say that sort of stuff, right? Yeah. The three of you arrive near-ish the same time. Rainard, you're the first one there. And Olive, down at her workbench as you enter, is like, Rainard. Hi. Good morning, Olive. How are you? Good. How are you? I'm fighting my accent again. Sorry. And she's up on some rolling stairs, working on one of the upper arms of her harness. I'm great. Good. Some rest. And here to do whatever we do today.
00:04:59
Speaker
It's a good attitude, good attitude to have. Anything exciting going on? Whatever we do today. That depends, what else do you know? Aeris keeps me pretty well informed, I think, I hope. Okay, good, good. This was super low stakes, honestly. We might go take care of a warlord. Oh. Yes. Sounds exciting, I've been told it's low stakes. Are there a lot of warlords in Sharn? Not my area of expertise.
00:05:25
Speaker
Okay. It's low stakes as far as Olive knowing what we're doing. This is gonna be a walk in the park. Raynard was definitely confused. Then Milo and Hob you all get there also and see Olive and Raynard chatting. Hi fellas. Morton. Good morning. Can I get you all any coffee or anything? And she walks down the steps and kind of wipes her hands off and
00:05:49
Speaker
Definitely. I'm right behind you. Okay, great. No, thank you. I'm good. Thanks. Sorry, we know that I didn't offer when you got here. My pants are full. Do you want to? It's all right. We were having wonderful conversation. I will take some please. Great. And all goes in.
00:06:04
Speaker
I walked over and started ripping wires out of this harness thing. You don't know why. Just start smashing it. Do you need this? Is the golem here? Yeah, the golem is just standing like with, I think, a tarp over Ygritte. I think that's how the state heiress keeps Ygritte in.
00:06:25
Speaker
Oh gosh, Jaeger style, like under the armpits to hold him up. If he's deactivated, he can't stay up of his own. I don't think so. He's capable of standing on his own when not active. Fine. Sorry to ruin your joy. Yeah, after a little bit, Eris, you hear voices downstairs chatting. One of them specifically says, Eris, get down here. You hear Hobb's boisterous voice resonating throughout the cauldron.
00:06:52
Speaker
Eris rolls back out of bed and just... Would the new Fletcher be down or would he be up with you?
Olive Seeks Advice on Magical Box
00:06:58
Speaker
He'd be down there. She left it on her workspace. In order to get her out quickly, Hop goes, Eris get down here and tell me about your new gun! It's heavy! As Eris is making her way down, Olive looks at Hop. So taking care of a warlord?
00:07:14
Speaker
Not sure yet. I've got apparently one more job to do for House Deneth before I'm cleared of my debt to them. And this one sounds like a doozy when you put it the way we keep putting it. You generally don't know what it is we're gonna have to do, but apparently there's trouble. And we're gonna fix it. Oh, if you need any help or if Deneth tries to give you too much trouble, let me know. I still have some... Deneth's been giving me too much trouble for some time now. Thank you.
00:07:44
Speaker
I have some friends amongst the 12 still that I can apply some pressure, but try to back off on this deal at least. I feel like there's probably going to be something more consequential that we might be able to use that particular favor for.
00:08:00
Speaker
Eris comes down the stairs without saying anything in that sort of arrhythmic sleepy walking sort of thing. It's like step and just over to the coffee machine, no speaking, pours mug, face mostly in the mug as she walks through all of you back over to her workstation and just leans over and starts finishing the assembly exactly where she left it. Give her about 90 seconds and she'll start to
00:08:26
Speaker
Where did the blast discs go? Or not here? I was not messing with his friend Aerys before. Who drank more than she should have. Doesn't have those. No blast discs? Isn't that your thing? I hang out with people who cluster around targets. I'm not going to pretend I don't appreciate it. Very fair. Hang out with people who cluster around targets. We do tend to cluster.
00:08:53
Speaker
I tend to try to avoid that. You're bad at it. Look, if you guys want me to stay away from the bad guys, I will. The only person who's good at staying out of danger is Reynard. They're true. I wasn't built for safety. Oh, I didn't.
00:09:10
Speaker
I wasn't built for confrontation. He mostly does that by being unhelpful. Let's rewind. What are you doing with your hands here? I don't know, fixing stuff, working on things. Okay, did you make eggs at some point during this? Probably. Is this a little hot plate next to her thing, next to her workstation? It makes her start wispy. Skill it. She's making an omelet, working on the Fletcher.
00:09:37
Speaker
Where did she get eggs? From a chicken, you weirdo. Eris doesn't know, but Olive keeps accepting baskets of eggs that people keep reading by us. Thank you. That's a great question. Is there... They're just in the icebox. Is there evidence of other like community gifts? Yeah, there's like... Bottles of stuff. Yeah, boxes and bottles and stuff that are on the counter near the coffee machine. Oh, Bob peruses the counter.
00:10:03
Speaker
Harris just hasn't put it together. That's where they come from. That's accurate. Cured meats are hard cheeses. Listen, when she was living in a corner of Olive's classroom, there was just usually food around. So Harris just, and when she lived at a bar, there was just food around.
00:10:21
Speaker
I'm totally going for the Pepperidge Farm basket. Absolutely. As you all are talking, Olive looks at... Milo, can you come here real quick for a second? Sure. Can you look at this? You're... I believe I recall that you're pretty knowledgeable about arcane things, right? Somebody is. Yes. And she's...
00:10:44
Speaker
Wait, hold on. She's gesturing at the box that you all found in the Mill Hatch lab that's all the different planer runes and stuff like that, that the Dragon Shard infusion box that... So I'm having a hard time figuring out... I know that Mill Hatch designed this with the intent of being able to adjust which plane
00:11:07
Speaker
Milhach was obviously working on this with the intent of designing it to where you could designate which plane you wanted to pull an elemental from in order to infuse into a dragon shard and so I'm trying to continue that work but I'm having a hard time putting together the runes on how it can be adjusted. Basically my understanding is once you have a rune for a planar connection there it's active like you can't there's not a switch turned on and off
00:11:35
Speaker
so can you take a look at this and just get your eyeballs on it to see if you can make heads or tails of some of these runes I don't recognize in here so if you want to make a check how difficult is this check going to be it's a knowledge lore check and it's going to be three purple we got so many story points and it's what three purple three purple but no you don't have any have one make one of them a red
00:12:05
Speaker
Don't be mad. Why are
Eris Reveals New Weapon
00:12:08
Speaker
you not spending one? We have all of them. All right. You can add another green if you want. I should already have it. Oh wait, this is lore. Nevermind. The stakes here are not success or failure. The stakes here are only on that red die. Exactly. Did that cancel?
00:12:22
Speaker
I don't care whether he knows anything. This cancels those two, yay. And I got a success and to advantage.
00:12:37
Speaker
so yeah milo you as you lean in and are examining it and you can feel the thrum of the innate magic uh residing within this box and you can pretty well tell that yeah some of these runes are designated to where they it's how noise canceling headphones work with where instead of blocking out noise it just creates a exact opposite frequency to where you hear nothing like it's that same thing with magic where yes once you have the rune for that planar magic there
00:13:05
Speaker
You can't switch it off but you can surround it with runes that when activated negate the magic and offset it completely is the methodology that Mill Hatch was having. So that's what you notice. What all of notice is very quickly as part of the advantage that you get is as you're leaning in the just wisps of smoke begin to point
00:13:28
Speaker
into the box and Olive notices that and just grabs a bit of cloth and like ties it around your head as you're looking and the smoke is blocked from like coming out. Where's the smoke coming out from? Or does his head just start expanding? It's a very temporary measure for while he's examining this box so. Philip is not enjoying this.
00:13:50
Speaker
But Harris is busy and doesn't notice. Harris is talking about the Fletcher. Harris isn't talking about it. Harris is working on it. Well, Hobb is asking about the Fletcher while Harris is working on it. He's semi-conscious. So what do you see in Milo?
00:14:03
Speaker
everything that i just told you okay listen i did no interesting interesting okay so i see figure out what these longer frequencies are i just noticed the smoke coming out of your head was going into the machine and i was uh about that what that's not good good thank you nothing
00:14:26
Speaker
You're allowed to ask again. Let me ask you this, Philip. Would Eris have ever had like a vent moment where she just went off about Milo? Okay, so yeah. Yeah. So Olive would go, nothing. Olive has heard about Milo. Yeah. Thought Olive was more responsible than this. She's just asking for insight from somebody who's smart. Right. And whose head sometimes infects machines. The machines just... That conversation has not been had between Eris and Milo yet. So Olive does not have that information.
00:14:55
Speaker
Okay, go ahead and step back and I'll take this off. Thank you. That was very helpful. I'll try to figure out what runes can offset the various planing. It would be really nice if he hadn't already included symbols for all the planes, except for Dal Kor, because then I don't want all of them in here. I don't know why he would want all of them, but thanks, Milo. Not good to have, so.
00:15:19
Speaker
Yeah. Kicking. Yeah. Aeris finishes the final touches, which are mostly decorative. Carves. Ray walks back over with just a summer sausage. I was going to say, Raynard and Hob finish the summer sausage. Good to go. She does the etching down the exterior of the barrel and then works a couple of things to finish the assembly of it and locks it. And there's just this sort of crackly wine as it comes online. OK.
00:15:51
Speaker
Think that works. Cool. Good job. It's a little less bulky than the original with no blast disc magazine attached to it. So slightly less large and bulky than the first one, but generally speaking, the same aesthetic. It's still got a.
00:16:08
Speaker
a cylindrical magazine to it. It's still a mixture of wood and bronze and metal, and both a lot of Jade worked into it, worked into the stock and along the barrel with the same kind of runes. Very cool. Milo kind of nods with his head to motion all of back to the core. You all have the core. What is it? The box? The box. Yes. I think maybe there's possibly
00:16:37
Speaker
some way to disable the less desirable aspects of this.
00:16:44
Speaker
The same thing that we just talked about creating like the inversion runes but if anything happens to those then obviously you would unleash that magic but you can't... I could try to scratch up the runes to like make them less effective but I can't remove them entirely without restarting from scratch on building this box and frankly I don't have the know-how to do that. This is a mill hatch.
00:17:08
Speaker
Without the bones, I can't build the skeleton of it, I guess. I don't understand the innate magic of it yet. Right. We can get her his bones. Just a thought. I was laughing at it, by the way. I don't know if the microphone's picked it up, but Eris just goes, we can get her his bones. Olive also says, oh, by the way, Eris, two days from today.
00:17:27
Speaker
There's a garden opening thing here in Highwall. Some people have torn up some of the stone and replanted, put in soil and stuff. And it's a neighborhood thing. Somebody came by and invited us to come. Try to be available if you can, but. Garden opening. Yeah. Like a little like square for people to come spend time and it'd be pretty and not so Highwall-ish. Maybe there's a statue. A little dedication with a plaque to the fixer.
00:17:54
Speaker
I don't think there's anything like that. Oh, there could be by the time I get done with that. Hop in right under, like, hold on. Shut up for art, but I have much for messing with Iris. I can put some gold toward that. Maybe we should have a statue. Okay. Might be nice. Probably be able to see you there. Okay. Iris has a generally suspicious look on her face at this stage.
00:18:20
Speaker
We'll get you good and drunk, don't worry. It's... I don't think that's... Why would that help? You may feel ready to party. It's a garden party. That's not how I feel when I'm drunk. You've seen me drunk. I don't become better at a party. Just to be clear, Aeris, nobody specifically requested, hey, will Aeris please be there? They invited us to come as part of the district of the neighborhood. But prepare a speech just in case. Don't prepare a speech, just wing it. It's probably still a good idea to keep a low profile.
00:18:48
Speaker
I don't, we just went to that tavern. I don't think that's the Britney song. No, I don't mean to, for them. I mean, from those who seek us out, I'm sure. I've done what I can about that. You guys ready to head to Ruska roost? Ruska roost? Where is that? Ruska roo? It is in Mildura. Ruska roo, we can't do it. They're Ruskas. Are you guys ready to head up to Ruska roost? Okay.
00:19:18
Speaker
Yes. It's a good day to kill. Well, I'm sorry. No, it's not. We're not going to go in with that attitude. It's just like conversation. We might end up leaving with that attitude, but we're going to go in with, Hey, what have I got to do to get you into leaving this place today? Kind of thing.
00:19:39
Speaker
Okay. Raynard's weeks are slow and labored. You can hear Raynard's... The word week. Week, week, week. Olive, please pay them no mind. Eris says a word in Goblin and Ygric takes one menacing step towards Raynard. I friend. Don't use Ygric for good. I was thinking about something. Very good I could use Ygric. All right, have fun. If you all need anything, let me know.
Arrival at Ruska's Roost
00:20:09
Speaker
be here into the boat we go and up we go yep and over a little so you all find yourself it's ruskas roos stands out a bit on from a street view standpoint this is not a
00:20:25
Speaker
Dargul neighborhood. This is not like a hobgoblin heavy part of town, but somebody decided, you know what? I got the real estate and I'm going to make a bar for hobgoblins from Dargun to hang out. And so the facade of it is wooden, but around the door.
00:20:45
Speaker
there is carved into what at least appears to be a single piece of wood it's i'm trying to think of the actual term like it's not carved into the wood it the wood has been carved to cause the form of a tiger to be sticking out of the water as it goes around the door in kind of an archway
00:21:02
Speaker
and Ruska's roost written in goblin above the door for any of you that speak goblin, which is Eris and... I'm learning. Yeah. And we established that Hob grew up in Drowam, so probably would at least know some major words. A tiger and a chicken coop. What? A roost. Okay. I don't get it. You made it up. Speaking of that, we should check in with Calf. Oh boy. We should.
00:21:32
Speaker
Which part of that reminded you of her? The tiger or the chickens? The gloves I made her. Oh, yes. Okay. Great. We should ask her. Did we ask her about that? Nope. We should. There are a lot of things, honestly. We got busy. Things happened. Yeah. Some things have been driven off the center of the workstation. She could join us? Wanna call her? Not today. Let's stick here.
00:21:52
Speaker
So, we go in. Okay. So, yeah, you walk in. Are they expecting? Is this the thing? Do they know someone's coming to talk to you about this? Yeah, Dennis said we'll have somebody come with you to deal with this situation. Okay, okay. That's good. That was a good question to ask. I've got my house, Dennis. Challenge coin, right? Drop down. Brother.
00:22:09
Speaker
You all see as you walk in the walls of Ruska's Roost are adorned with weapons and shields hanging on the walls and tapestries that Ereshiwo immediately recognizes being in the Dakhani style of goblin culture.
00:22:24
Speaker
that depicting heroic deeds, battles, things like that. Behind the bar a large tall muscular hobgoblin with reddish skin and yellow eyes. His head is shaved with tattoos all over the top of his head and he has three scars going across the front of his face. The scars cut through his
00:22:47
Speaker
Beard that is on his face And he he has a pendant around his neck that Eris you would recognize as a symbol of direct heritage to DeCon Empire is other than that he's in fairly simple clothes and You can tell by the way, he carries himself Eris probably in Hobb as well. This person is
00:23:18
Speaker
highly disciplined soldier like not in the the way that Jorland carried himself is like clearly somebody that served in the military this guy is clearly still in it mentally like this is his charge is running this bar not in a sour way but just in a very clearly he takes a lot of pride in it
00:23:36
Speaker
So as a bar then, is this, we established that Aeros will go like here, the hounds of Valcom play at a dark rule bar or that sort of thing. This is not that kind of bar. Is that the impression that I'm getting or? Could play here, but this seems to be a bit more upscale. Like the intention is this is to be a place where hobgobins can come for like a good meal, good drinks, good company. Not a raucous good time. Correct. Yeah. Yeah. There's an expectation that you will.
00:24:06
Speaker
conduct yourself with the level of decorum while in here. Sure. Not in a military sense, but just in a, yeah, this isn't a dive bar. Yeah, and the bartender look at you all and give a nod and gesture to the tables out in the general area.
00:24:19
Speaker
I assume. Unless you see the group you're supposed to talk to. Yeah, I don't know what I'm supposed to talk to, so I think I go to that bartender that you've been describing. Okay. And I just say to him, I try to say in Goblin that I've been sitting here by Dinnith to talk to somebody, and it comes out as, Dinnith made me come here. I speak common if that would be preferable. Well, thank God. I was trying to be respectful. I appreciate that. I hope that didn't come off as condescending. No, not at all. Great. I've been sent here by House Dinnith to address an issue you have with
00:24:49
Speaker
I guess you just, does he just say Warlord? I guess he just says Warlord. If that's the... How was it? Great. I was hoping you'd feel pretty indifferent. He nods like, yes, I've heard about the meeting. The warband that you're set to speak to, Sherat Gathkal will be here shortly. They have not arrived yet, so... The band is called Sherat Gathkal? Yeah. Okay. I'm gonna give it a shot and then you're gonna spell it for me. Okay.
00:25:18
Speaker
I'm gonna do it real wrong. I'll give you a hint. There are minimum two apostrophes. I want to spell Shirok the former... Oh, what? Oh, that makes it different. Because I wanted to spell like the former French politician.
00:25:33
Speaker
Alright, how did you spell it? S-H-A-R-A-T, apostrophe G-A-T-H, apostrophe K-A-L Apostrophe G-A-H, apostrophe K-A-L K-A-L, no way So you put apostrophes at the beginning of a word, or as I put them in the middle, other than that? It's all one word Oh, gross What? Rude My name is Gothic, by the way G-A-T-H-A-K
00:26:02
Speaker
I will come over and take your order in a moment while you wait. Aris, how are you feeling being in this place? Uncertain. Okay. There are a couple other hobgoblins sitting in here, clearly from warbands in Charn for some reason, but... She has withdrawn a little bit into herself. She's very conscious of the tattoo on her face.
00:26:27
Speaker
So she's just, and depending on who sees it, the new Fletcher she's carrying around has all sorts of obviously Darr influences from the right eyes. So she's drawn into herself and allowing Hob to do the talking and seems to become, I guess subdued is the right term. She's not making eye contact. She nods when directed to the table and goes to the table.
00:26:57
Speaker
Yeah. Anybody else have any strong feelings about Ruska's roof says you're in here?
Waiting for the Warband
00:27:03
Speaker
Rainard and Milo, especially, this would be a holy alien experience. Like the vibe in here is unlike any tavern or bar that you've ever been in. So yeah.
00:27:15
Speaker
Well, if that's the case, Milo would be taking everything in to notice all the differences between what he's used to. You probably would have heard tales of, like, Dargoon and maybe even Ancient History of the Dakani Empire, but you're in it. This is a realized version of probably some unreliable tales that you've received about what the hog goblins are like. Gothok comes over to your table, drinks,
00:27:39
Speaker
Sorry. I... annotated that wrong. Drinks. I appreciate that. That was good. I like that. I'll have your best ale, please. Corlott. Water. Wait, what is this you ordered, Eris? I'll have one of what she has ordered.
00:27:56
Speaker
Do you want to know what it is first? You should ask your friend what it is. Honestly, I'd like to know what it is before Milo ordered it. He had something last night that really goofed him up. It's substantial. It's... It's strong, is the... Strong is... Strong is good! Very well. Just a red wine for me, please.
00:28:20
Speaker
Very well. Would you like anything else? I'll order some. Do you have food? Yes. I don't drink. I don't know what. I'm here to get rid of your warlord. I don't have a warlord. The warlord. The problem. Eris winces. I will be back with your drinks. And Gothic. Walks away. I didn't ask to come here. I'm here to enjoy the food. Give me a water. Screw off.
00:28:47
Speaker
He brings drinks to the table. Milo, how do you inappropriately drink this beverage that's been brought before you when you're getting yourself into? He might look out and do it appropriately. Milo is probably going to watch and see what Aeris does and follow lead. I imagine this to be both highly alcoholic and also
00:29:11
Speaker
a hearty beverage. It's not vodka or whiskey or something in that it's highly alcoholic. It's more like a really strong stout or something like that. Like a meal. Chewy beers. Does that have A1 in it?
00:29:32
Speaker
Could it? Probably quite dark, with maybe a reddish cast to it. Sounds like something Randy likes. It's probably a Randy beer. I can imagine Randy liking this beer. Good thought as he sets the drinks down and looks around. The stars that we have are Pacha Noonballs, Skurztot Skewers, and Charat Bites. Which of those would you like for the table?
00:29:58
Speaker
Noon actually involves very good great. Thank you Maybe people knew who you were we'd get things for free again. Don't know don't It sounds like we're going to follow your lead on a food and beverage. It's the fried. It's like fried dough. You like it great There's no product like a powdered sugar brought to the unit. I brought it to the unity dinner. All right
00:30:23
Speaker
After a moment, Gothic comes out with a bowl full of fried dough balls with some kind of spice on it and then side cup of a very vibrant red sauce that he sits next to it.
00:30:37
Speaker
I've no weenie. Dip that bread in the sauce and see what happens. It is abrasively spicy. Okay. A lot of really good flavor accompanying it, but not a chemical burn, but very spicy. Yeah. Harris dyes and Harris likes noon and follows it very quickly with the very thick drink. That's helpful in dealing with the spiciness.
00:30:58
Speaker
As you all are eating your noon balls, a group of six figures walk into the bar. Rub it in, nice and calm. I got a group of six figures over there in their suits and ties. There are six hobgoblins walk in all with fairly close matching attire.
00:31:14
Speaker
and they walk in and grab a table and Gothic quickly walks over and not like shortly after they sit down, Gothic does not move quickly to do anything, he moves with purpose and you see him talk to them and gesture at Ural's table and one of them that he's speaking to that is a very tall muscular hobgoblin with battle scars but the way he wears himself, clearly the leader of this warband, he's wearing very ornate
00:31:44
Speaker
and he nods and glazes at your table, and then clearly puts an order in with Gothic. Makes no immediate effort to walk over to speak to you. Gothic returns. Our main option's on the menu. Ruska stew, grilled atarka chops, and sur, and mushroom. I believe I'll try the chops. Sur. Is any of that fish? No. No. Oh. I would know what atarka is, right?
00:32:12
Speaker
It's marinated wolf or hound chops. Everything else sounds real hearty and Eris drank more than she should have last night. The third one that no one's ordered yet. The ruska stew. That was the first one. The grilled taco chops. Very good. What are they again? Say it again. I'm sorry. I have the ruska stew, which if you don't speak goblin is tiger stew. Oh no. Grilled taco chops, which is wolf chops. They don't actually have tiger in it. They don't eat the tigers. They ride the tigers. It's just the name. Oh, okay.
00:32:43
Speaker
What is in it? This is Ruska's Roost. It's probably their house. And then Sur and Mushroom. Sur is also a type of fungus, but we repair it in a different way. But the mushrooms are so full. Oh, that sounds good. That's what you're having. Yes, I'll take that. Two Sur and Mushroom. I'll try this too. Chops. Chops. Stew. Good.
00:33:03
Speaker
You know what? I'll take the chops too. Two chops, two serves. And a stew. And a stew. I'm a big guy. Yeah. I can tell. I eat several chickens. Okay. See Gothic bring drinks for the table of the warband and they begin just, they're chatting, having their drinks. They put in order for a starter as well. Once again, making them. I was forced to. Movement. Yeah, I didn't have a choice.
00:33:35
Speaker
What do you all think about perhaps maybe buying them around? Goodwill.
00:33:42
Speaker
We all look to Eris. I don't think... I don't have any goodwill towards them. I want to do a job that I have to do and get done, but... You can. I don't... Are you working with them or against them? Well, not against them. I don't know if I'm working with them or for them. Okay. So I'm just hoping it may be a little more amenable. We have to remove an obstacle before they can take the job that Dennis wants them to take. Alright.
00:34:08
Speaker
Gothic comes back with your meals and also has some smaller plates with the, uh, the chops. Those are served with some additional goth called greens and some noon balls. The sir and mushroom, yours comes with the goth called greens. And for you, sir, I brought you some top taters and makes eyes of Eris is the.
00:34:33
Speaker
His mouth doesn't move, but Aerys, he smirks at you with his eyes. With his ears? Yeah, he expresses derision with his ears. But we all know what tot means, because Aerys won't stop saying it. I sure haven't paid attention. Raynard knows he got insulted. I hope. Wait, what are they? What? Tot. He calls everyone tot. It's just a term of affection.
00:34:54
Speaker
I don't think so. But what are they? It's a word I can't say because we're a family friendly show. It's a derogatory term for, in actual goblin culture, it means somebody is of a lesser status than you. But I just mean, what am I going to eat? Tater tots. Tater tots. I'm fine with that. It's a big joke in the dar among the... Well, jokes on them. I love tater tots. It's a big joke among the dar that humans eat something called tater tots. It's hilarious. I'm not a human. Yeah, I know. But surely the dish was created by humans.
00:35:24
Speaker
Oh no, maybe halflings. Or maybe a fried potatoes is probably a halfling thing. I'm like, fried potatoes are any faster than given to me. I'm very much with you. But it is a funny linguistic joke. I guess I... I mean, Eris, is there a way to approach them? I don't know. What do I observe about them?
00:35:47
Speaker
They are clearly closely joined together, like there's a level of familiarity and while they are with each other, Aeris, as you're observing them, like there's no walls, there's no Aeris, they are a family. Like us. And the thing that you pick up on Aeris because of the culture with which you grew up in, they came here.
00:36:07
Speaker
to have a meal and eat. And once they are done with that, then they will engage in other activities. But for now, they're enjoying a meal together and to interrupt them would be. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Beggars knows that, tells me that, then they'll sit down and eat. Yeah. They're here to eat with their cast. So we let them eat and once they're finished, then you can talk to them. Or possibly then they'll come talk to you. I don't know. I eat my,
00:36:34
Speaker
Great, I think you ordered one of everything. No, I didn't get what you had, the mushrooms. Didn't get the veggie dish. I'm sorry, you asked how Eris drinks this. Eris drinks this slowly. Milo, follow suit. Gothic, returns to the table. Dessert options are... Vanondalite, Nisar nut pastry, or sorcer pudding.
00:37:01
Speaker
I've absolutely been famous this morning. I'll do the pastry. The banana.
00:37:08
Speaker
I'll have the pudding. All right. You had sir for your meal. Do you want sir for your dessert as well? I'm just confirming to make sure that you're making a wise choice. Oh, I didn't hear that. I guess that answers that. What were the choices again? I'm so sorry. I'm not from here. I'm not from here. Is that how you feel when you go into a Mexican restaurant? Sorry, I'm not from here.
00:37:40
Speaker
The non-delight is a sweet, creamy custard topped with seasonal fruits and honey. Nisar nut pastry is a flaky pastry filled with crushed nuts, sweet spices, and a layer of honey. Saurus syrup pudding is a soft pudding made from syrup sweetened with honey and crushed nuts. I'll do the delight. The non-delight, two of the non-delights. Maybe three. Three of the non-delights. And you wanted the pastry. Yes. Sounds fabulous. Mushroom pudding? Yeah.
00:38:03
Speaker
What is this burrito thing?
00:38:10
Speaker
you it's nourishing it's filling it's it's that is the most respectful way that radar could have done that though in a very high choice of I don't get it sure but it's a base for a lot of things that they eat I liked it I don't I don't think I'd like it sweet but thank you got like a pancake you know the sweet one or a savory one
00:38:32
Speaker
All right. Like a pancake. What's that? Eberron pancake. Sorry. Gothic comes back with your... Tasha's hideous pancake. Tasha made great pancakes. I need it out from up for a tavern where they can serve Tasha's hideous pancake. A diner, probably. Yeah, you all... The diner is obviously called Tasha's Cauldron of Everything. Yeah, that's true. Comes back with your desserts and leaves. Tamu. Tamu.
00:38:57
Speaker
Hey, some people love the way you are playing this. After you all finish up your desserts, the figure in the ornate armor walk over to your table and he looks at all of you and says, we will be up in the private room on the second floor.
Warband Introduction and Situation Overview
00:39:12
Speaker
You may meet with us there and the rest of the group is already heading upstairs and then he turns to follow them. This feels like the Yakuza. I finished my dessert. Okay. Not like in a defiant way. Yeah. We ordered it and we head up to the private room on the second floor.
00:39:27
Speaker
Okay. So you walk in, you see the six figures sitting on one side of a table. There are more than enough seats to accommodate all of you. Yeah, I see. He's you described him as in ornate da Connie armor. Are these guys?
00:39:41
Speaker
Like, Kesh D'Khan, are they? No. Like, specifically? Okay. Yeah. He's just acquired some good armor. Yeah, and it's based on the way he wears it and takes care of it. It's clear that there's a level of respect for... Is it old? Because he actually got old D'Khan armor, has it just been made in that style? Old D'Khan armor that he has restored. Cool. As you all enter the room, they look at you all clearly with the look of waiting for you all to join them at the table.
00:40:04
Speaker
I goose it with them at the table. Yeah. Yeah, it's like they're all on one side last upper style. We're gonna go next to last ever stop
00:40:14
Speaker
For those of you unfamiliar with the traditions, we will begin with introductions. We are Sharat Gavkal, Warband, and our titles. I am Rukat. Next one, the female agile hobgoblin with kind of a lean athletic build. Tarka Kesh, another very slender, pale-skinned hobgoblin with silvery hair, intricately braided. Ulkala.
00:40:41
Speaker
Next one you it's their hob not quite as tall but Big wide one unlike the other ones who have weapons and armor and stuff. He is in he has
00:40:55
Speaker
This? No. Wraps on his forearms. No shirt, pants. Shirot Dor. And he's also a hobgoblin? Like they're all hobgoblins? One of them... Shirot Dor. One of them is a bugbear. But the rest of them are hobgoblins. Is it Shirot Dor? It's not the big one.
00:41:15
Speaker
What did you say one was? Which one is? A bugbear. A bugbear. When is the bugbear? Bugbear. I thought you said nightmare. One of them is a nightmare. Oh perfect, I hate it. One of them whose skin has more of an orangy undertone and bright vibrant orange eyes. The next one, Skyruska. And the last one who is a bugbear, Vusrikesh. And then they look at you expectantly.
00:41:43
Speaker
So the one guy introduced them all? No, they each introduced themselves. Milo keg bottom. Hob. Eris. Reynard turn veil. Satya. Very good. We will proceed for your benefit in the common tongue unless you prefer to speak in our language. Not all of them do.
00:42:10
Speaker
We are made to understand that you are here to assist with a situation that is escalating in a most dire manner for my... and this is Rukat speaking for me and my cast. That is the understanding I'm also under, yes. We have an unfortunate situation where back in our homeland when we were operating as a warband there
00:42:35
Speaker
We encountered a former warlord who had clearly been defeated and brought low. We encountered him in the wilderness and did not provide him assistance as he did not seem worthy of it. We now come to realize that he has gotten back on his feet and has not forgotten the perceived slight
00:42:57
Speaker
that we committed towards him. So he has followed us to the city and is beginning to hunt us down. He has already killed one member of my cause. I do not seek for it to happen again. And your general boom rush offered
00:43:17
Speaker
assistance in dealing with this situation so that me and my costs may not be put in further danger and we can assist him in his endeavors. And we thank you for this. How many does he travel with? Alone. He works... Do not take that. He works alone and you six are... I'm trying to get at how strong he is. I'm not trying to insult him, but that's how he's gonna say it. There are six of you and one of him and he is that powerful.
00:43:46
Speaker
He is a very skilled practitioner in arcane arts and construction of materials and is able to create things that can harm others without him needing to be directly present. A point of fact. And the bugbear, Vroosri Kesh, reaches under the table and pulls out a, it's like an eight-legged automaton, looks to be, but it's like,
00:44:17
Speaker
black all over, like designed to be black, dark blues, hide in the shadows extremely easily. These proved to be rather deadly, and he has sent numerous ones after us. They're near and possible to spot in any kind of darkness or shadow. I think it's that. How big is it? It's like a giant spider, like a skateboard. The body is like about this big, but the legs cause it to come out. Just hold it or is he setting it on the table?
00:44:45
Speaker
plops it on the table. Okay, Eris brings her goggles down and is going to examine it. Is it all right with you if she? Additionally, there are what we have begun to call in your tongue blood seekers that he through harming us in the past has acquired some of our blood and is able to infuse these constructs with them to where they can hunt us relentlessly based on
00:45:13
Speaker
based on the blood that flows in our veins. And he is also taken to in our efforts when we are... We initially came to the city to delve into the ruins that your city was built upon the city of our people to find artifacts and items down there. And he began constructing very good replicants
00:45:39
Speaker
of D'Kani artifacts, but infusing them with curses that when we pick them up, they would cause us to go blind or go mad temporarily, things like that.
Insights on the Warlord's Constructs
00:45:49
Speaker
So he is a very cunning figure. He is smart enough to not fight us directly, but we have a lead on where he may be based out of, and so that is what we will provide you with to go. Does he have a name?
00:46:05
Speaker
Yes, his name is Virgoth. V-U-L-R apostrophe G-H-T-H. G-A-T-H. Hit me one more time with that. V-U-L-R apostrophe G-A-T-H. Got it! Virgoth. If you do encounter him, he dresses in a manner to be obscured. He wears a dark hooded gray cloak to allow him to
00:46:33
Speaker
blend in with the crowd but then additionally he wears gloves and soft-soled boots as to not be heard or leave any trace of his presence and he wears a mask of polished metal to the point to where it appears to be a mirror with arcane runes and things like that all over it that allow him to see through it.
00:46:54
Speaker
the mask itself has no eye holes. I would be careful if you find his hideout in the area that we give to you, which is down in the cogs just with that, because given the offensive capability of his machinations and constructions, part of the reason that we had no desire to try and track him down once we had the information of his possible location
00:47:18
Speaker
is what he would equip his hideout and lair with in terms of defenses would be very formidable and thorough. He knows that he is hunted. And just so I'm clear, I'm not catching the vibe we're working together on this. They have been told in exchange for joining Boom Rush's efforts, they will not need to worry about this Warlord. I think we need to assemble the whole team for this one. Yeah, this is big. Is Ygric busy?
00:47:46
Speaker
Especially. Do you have any further questions for us? Narn. Narn's a beer crack. Less than useful. I'm sure I do have further questions for them. I just don't know what they are.
00:47:59
Speaker
Is there anything I can learn from examining the automaton that
Examination of Captured Construct
00:48:03
Speaker
I brought? Sure. Give me a mechanics check. This is going to be based on the construction of it, a one red, two purple, one black. Deborah. One black.
00:48:22
Speaker
Sorry, the one black is because Vusri, Kesh, did not try to keep it too intact when he killed the thing. So it's been pretty heavily damaged. I'll spend one of our story points. Oh, you did it. You know what it is. Of how affirming Trevor is while looking at dice rolls. These are gone, right? So much advantage.
00:48:45
Speaker
No, other way around. Okay. One success and five advantage. Five advantage. Okay. So you can tell the shadow stalker with your success as a construction if used with both necromantic and shadow magic, making it extremely difficult to detect and highly effective at tracking.
00:49:03
Speaker
And they utilize the necromantic, they utilize the shadow magic primarily to conceal their location position, the necromantic magic to harm its targets. In fact, you get the sense that it even has some capability of like life stealing, like it can drain life from a creature in order to repair it. These are the ones they call blood raiders. No, these are the shadow stalkers. Yeah, the blood seekers, they don't have one for you. But likewise, a construct. It's not a creature. Yes.
00:49:32
Speaker
Yeah, based on what they're saying, this is a single person who is a very skilled artificer that is creating constructs to hunt down their target. We've got one of those. What he said to us was, we saw a man down on his luck and we decided that he was not worth our help. Due to this perceived slight. Harris gets it. Harris gets it. Doesn't like it. They're going to get it too because they got the wrong side of this guy. Is this guy famous? Have I heard of this guy?
00:50:02
Speaker
You've never heard this thing before in your life. Okay. This thing's real bad. That seems very bad. We have to get him when he's sleeping. Yeah, I think I do. I do think right.
00:50:13
Speaker
when we find out. We know where he is, we don't know where he is. What's the information they have for us about his location? They have the district within the cogs that he has located. But that's the extent. I just sent my players on a similar quest for an area in the cogs where they knew where something was and they didn't have fun. So I got a feeling you're better at it than me.
00:50:33
Speaker
And because it's not actually in the glossary, but Eris would be able to suss out the meaning of the name, Voor-Gath. Gath means obviously without, but Voor means... It's not honor in like the general broad term, but like honorable combat.
00:50:54
Speaker
Yeah. Backstabber. This man's name is No Chill. Was Eris able to get the sense that these things... So his name is actually like, Fights Dirty. Yeah. Okay. So that's probably not his name. Yes. But much like the people before you, it's a title they have taken on to reflect there. Did Eris get a sense of how autonomous these things might be? Like, will they outlast him, for example? Yes.
00:51:22
Speaker
Then we have to take care of all of them, too? Correct. Well, it's clear that they can take care of, like, one coming after them. It's just the relentless, like, they will never be able to effectively serve Boom Rush if they have to be constantly worried about these things showing up. But if they know that a finite number- If you want another one turned up. There's a finite number out there that are comfortable with that. And, um, yeah, I'm glad I asked, because it made them scarier. I would like to suspend a story point to say that Arthur is an unbeatable god.
00:51:52
Speaker
So Arthur will survive. That's gonna be the last scene of this campaign. It's like the rat in the departed. Arthur going across the screen. Oh, you had advantage, right? I have five advantage. What would you like to do with the five advantage? Gotham's got some great other cocktails that you could get for free. They gave us a friend. Oh, that's a good idea, actually. So examining this, I can...
00:52:21
Speaker
Basically, if it's got that much autonomy and it's capable of doing what it's doing, it's got some capacity for memory, essentially. And so I want to spend my advantage to say that I can use this thing
00:52:38
Speaker
to find a way back to its point of origin. Sure. I will. Yeah. I'll allow you to say that. I can essentially program it to go home. Look at me. It detector. I have a talent that says I can build one of these now just for the record. Can we build one to make it a detector? You're going to go find the other. You're going to warn us when there's more of you around. Yeah.
00:53:00
Speaker
I could probably make a detector of these things. I like that idea. That's something I could probably build. And your goggles would still detect them in the shadows. That's actually a good question. That's what they do, right? They're definitely a HUD. Maybe you have to notice something first. Eric can make it be whatever he wants.
00:53:22
Speaker
Yeah, if something's invisible or trying to obscure its ability to be seen, then the goggles wouldn't automatically pick up on it. Right. It's a little too powerful, I get it. I get it. I don't like it, but I get it. Not that you've seen one. Yeah, I might be able to build something to try and detect them. The sending home thing is a great idea. Yeah. So we can know where. That's a starting point. Yeah, that's fantastic. But I love the idea that we ambushed by half a dozen of them.
00:53:44
Speaker
I will even offer, if you want to build one, build it, repair it to where it will just go home, totally fine. Or I would even say that like, you find the component of the memory, like the tracking, and you could sync it to Hobb's harness to where Hobb would basically like, as if Hobb had been there before. You guys remember I had that harness? Okay. But that's just another option if you don't want to deal with going back and building something and all that kind of stuff. But I failed your Fletcher. And I have that harness.
00:54:25
Speaker
Did we end our conversation with them They're still sitting at the table expect it looking you for more questions if you have any what question should we ask? I don't know Randy I
00:54:36
Speaker
I don't have any more questions for them. This guy's very scary. He's got toys that make him scarier. You do notice, Milo, as you're looking, Woosterie Keshe, the one that popped the shadow stalker. He, you see faint smoke coming up from behind his head. It's gray in nature. It's not like black viscous smoke, but you do see gray smoke coming from his back. And he's the bug bear. Yeah.
00:54:58
Speaker
Are you like looking at the smoke Milo? Milo has noticed it and looks away and then Milo tries to catch his eye points to his smoke. And he pulls up and you see a sword handle come up and he pulls his sword halfway out of its sheath and the blade is just on fire. And then he slides it back into the sheath.
00:55:19
Speaker
Milo, wow, that's like awesome cool. Milo gives a little toot-toot of respect. You go, not the same thing. So, no. Oh, sorry. I absolutely forgot to mention one of the most important aspects of this. In the back corner behind Sky Ruska, there is a tiger curled up, like sleeping behind them, behind, like a giant tiger with a saddle on its back. Awesome. Go pet it, Raynod. Are we under the impression this is one of their tiger?
00:55:48
Speaker
Okay. Just because it didn't come in with them. So. Yeah. Awesome. They knew the meeting was happening in this room. Sounds like. They're not really. Yeah. The soup. No, I know. It was not made of tiger. They don't eat tigers. Come from? Ride tigers. Actually. More than happy to say that Eris, if you all would have asked, but Eris would probably know. When a tiger is killed in battle, they will sometimes use like to honor the animal. Right. Eat it. And so, yeah.
00:56:16
Speaker
so they do occasionally eat tiger just they don't like so in the soup domestic could be no the eye of
Strategic Planning Against the Warlord
00:56:24
Speaker
the tiger are we done it died from the thrill of the fight apparently as arias says apparently all six of them stand up and we will meet you back here how many days will you need pal there is no telling i we haven't even had a chance to
00:56:46
Speaker
How about we meet back in a few days and we can give you progress? We'll be back here in three days then. Great. And the tiger you hear in it stands up and begins to follow Sky Ruska out of the room as the six of them leave. And as they've left the door, can I tell you guys, I appreciate that we have fun every once in a while. Everyone else we meet seems so freaking serious all the time and it's have a joke.
00:57:14
Speaker
Tiger was cool though, right? Yeah, Eris probably
00:57:20
Speaker
Eris, like, Eris's social cues are hit or miss at the best of times, but Eris probably would have, you felt an absence of notice about your tattoo. Nobody really looked at it for a very long time, nobody, like, it wasn't a thing, in a way Eris may have anticipated it being. Interesting. It is a Dara tattoo, right? Yeah. Sounds like Eris has some technical work ahead of her. Yes. What should the rest of us do?
00:57:51
Speaker
Recruit? We do, yeah. We need to talk. Okay, let's have this talk. Are we asking Cath to do things with us right now? I can't think of a good reason not to. She seems very successful currently, so... She's not in a good place, and we're doing bad things. Not that's ever really bothered us. You know what? Screw it, yeah. Cath. Cath's in. Well, we could ask Cath, and Sana, and Sigil. Sigil's out.
00:58:20
Speaker
It's not going to come fight the warlord with us. I just don't know why we would ask. A figure walks in through the door to the private room carrying a train. It's gothok and they have four wood planks with large
00:58:36
Speaker
holes halfway carved down with a glass like a flight one and he sets down a flight in front of each of you post dinner drinks and he walked out of it I didn't even ask there's no way these are on the house it's true we didn't pay the first time so we're not gone yet all right our new friends just them no I don't think so
00:58:55
Speaker
Like many flights light to dark I was gonna take a sip of each one cuz he wants to see how they taste but like burned into the wood around each where each glass is inset into the wood is the name of Nice The drink being served and right now I can't read any of it It's written in common but with Goblin words like much of this establishment so Eris starts in on it. Yep
00:59:25
Speaker
I used to talk about pieces of gath, sauna, egric. Could ask my brother? No, yeah, you could ask him. We'll have finances behind us. Egric is the most variable I'm willing to go with right now, and only there's a chance they might not be susceptible to some things that might happen to us.
00:59:53
Speaker
Are you comfortable with me referring to Igrig as a tank? Because frankly... Igrig is quite durable. Thank you. That's the golem. There you go. It sounds like you'll have a lot of technology. Should we ask Olive? Did they leave the thing? Yep. Why don't you take the shot and show it to her? Because if we're going to be fighting technology... Olive's work is on that end. Olive's not going to fight with us, right Eri?
01:00:21
Speaker
I think so. I've never asked it to. Who else do we know? I don't know that we need more. I don't think we need a 30 person army coming up. No, I want to have Eric play nine people. We're definitely not inviting pebble fist because only I can talk like this. That sounds like a good list. Yeah, I think that's, I think that's the list. Okay. What does that make us a party of seven? Seven. Seven V one.
01:00:49
Speaker
What about Dr. Solomon Callaway? To my knowledge, we're still fine. I believe that, but I don't think your knowledge is accurate. Did you not understand the last conversation you had with him? So we tried to kill you. It didn't seem any different than anyone else. And who knows, maybe we could get rid of him. So we drink our four meters each. I'll tell you, we get one of these blood seekers and get a bit of his blood, and then I could set a robot on him.

Speaker
So I suppose I will talk with Catherine, Sauna, and you can prep each Rick however you need to. Go ahead and add everybody in to the don't hurt him list at this time. It'll be helpful. No worries.
