Introduction and Setup
00:00:00
Speaker
Oh my cards are losing everything. The sun going down.
00:00:40
Speaker
Hello everyone and welcome to this week's episode of The Fellowship of the Tabletop. We are live play 5E D&D podcast set in the magical homebrewed world of Aerith and we are on the precipice of death.
Meet the Players and Characters
00:00:50
Speaker
My name is Mark, I am the dungeon master. What the fuck? And also with us for today's episode we have Darren who plays the human fighter rogue Robin. I almost forgot.
00:01:01
Speaker
I'm not going to lie, I have nothing for this opening. Just get through it and let's get started. It's all going to be fine. We have Callum who plays the gnome sauce for a folly fizzlebang the ninth. The end is near. Ian who plays the dragonborn barbarian paladin Drago. I'll give a watch over me.
00:01:19
Speaker
Oh, that was a bit like a gladiator. I like that. Whichever my sons and daughters, father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. It was nice. I like that. We have Casey. Great impression. Thank you. GG. I'm practicing my Russell Crowe. In the mirror every morning, half six in the morning. I pull my hair down. Oh, you're not indigined. Look at me. I'm so Italian. We have Casey. That went all over the shop.
00:01:44
Speaker
It went from Australia to Italy. It's gorgeous. Oh no, because he... Romans are Italians, so he's Italian. But he's an Australian playing an Italian. Anyway, we have Casey, who plays the human champion, Helena Sleepguard.
Combat with the Wraiths Begins
00:01:56
Speaker
I'm on the edge. She's edging, everyone. And we have Danny, who plays the human cleric, Claude. I did it my way. Don't do it, Claude. Don't do it. Beautiful, beautiful. Help is on the way, dear.
00:02:17
Speaker
We are mid combat through a cacophony of wraiths that have been called to combat and the party is reeling Claude who is trying to cast what is the name of the spell Claude?
00:02:31
Speaker
yeah calm isn't but uh forbiddance. It takes 10 minutes to cast we got nine minutes and a bit into it before the uh the wraiths attacked giving us a handy little short amount of time 10 rounds to get through uh to survive through to cast the spell and these raids have engulfed the group uh folly had uh disappeared and reappeared and had cast an ice wall around the group protecting them but also kind of encapsulating them uh with helen on the outside fighting
00:03:11
Speaker
Helen find out they are fallible and killable and had killed one of the creatures as she faces off with another one as well. I forgot to do this at the end of last week's episode, but every time you at the rates end a turn in your space, you take some force damage. So Helena.
00:03:31
Speaker
We're going to go from the top of the round in a moment, because it was the Wraith's turn. So we're going to start with Draggo. But before that happens, Helena, you take two points of force damage. Draggo, you take three points, Draggo, of force damage. I'm not OK with this. Folly, you take six. Bollocks.
00:03:55
Speaker
Vans take seven. Sorry, they've been going up incrementally. Robin, you take nine. This is a d10, so that's second to highest amount of damage you can take. As long as I take it and not cast them, that's fine. Lovely. That is all the damage that they can dole out that turn. Just so you give a sense to this listener, Helen's on the outside of this wall of ice fighting one. Drago is fighting what looks like the leader and another one. There is one attacking Lucian.
00:04:23
Speaker
Sorry, there's one attacking Vance, Skullblade, which is one of the NPC soldiers that have gone along with him. Lucian is Wraithless. There is one in Folly's space, there is one in Robin's space, there is one next to Claude, and there is one next to the unconscious body of Kastan, who is still suffering with the effects of his own Confusion spell.
00:04:44
Speaker
That's how we find ourselves. They are everywhere. They are encroaching. Is the end nigh? Let's find out. Top of the round. Draggo. You are raging. What would you like to do?
00:04:54
Speaker
I think there was an audible gulp there. Okay, it's not Ian, it's Drago, it's fine. Okay, so at the end of last episode, you got me to do a perception check. And on that perception check, I saw that Claude was not long of this world without aid.
00:05:14
Speaker
Drago's going to turn away from the creatures that he's facing and peg it towards Claude as fast as he can. I'm guessing there's going to be some some shit coming my way. You are going to trigger two attacks of opportunity if you leave the space.
00:05:28
Speaker
Now, am I right in thinking that these attacks, if they hit me, I can still run. They won't stop me. They won't stop you running. No, but you'll just
The Battle Intensifies
00:05:34
Speaker
hit the damage. Yeah, let's do it. You have also activated your shield of faith. Your AC is plus two. I have my AC is up and I am raged and let's just bring on the damage. Okay. So yes. Okay. So for flavor, Drago, Ruby's perception checks or Claude still kneeling and trying desperately to get this spell out. And so Drago is going to kind of
00:05:57
Speaker
do what he can, even though he's a massive dragonborn. Sword in one hand, axe in the other, shoulders forward, and he's turning face and running towards Claude. Both creatures swing at you as you leave. The first one rolls a seven, giving him a 15, which... Does that hit? Nope. Second one rolls an eight plus eight, which is 16. Does that hit? Nope. Both creatures miss. You reach Claude. You are right next to Folly. There's a creature in Folly space. You're right next to Claude. There is a creature next to...
00:06:26
Speaker
As I literally make it towards Claude, I'm dropping the Axe of Shader down by him and shoving a hand out to just touch him. And you've got 15 points of healing. Lay on hands, Paul. All 15 I'm giving you. Nice. Twist me back on double digits.
00:06:43
Speaker
I'm going to get up. I've still got movement. So after laying there, touching up Claude with his his consent, of course, I'm going to stand up. Jago is going to stand up and the axe shadars on the floor now right by Claude. So FYI, Jago is going to stand up and he's going to enter the fucking field of the wraith that stood over Claude.
00:07:13
Speaker
Okay, and he's just going to take on the deception now back in two hands. And yeah, he's just standing as close as Claude to Actors award as possible and stepped right into the Wraith's path.
00:07:30
Speaker
Awesome, thank you for starting off round three with a literal bang. Folly, your turn. You have a Wraith within your space. You've also seen Draka move away to protect Claude. You also passed that perception check to let you know that Draka was not in a great state. What would you like to do? Claude. Claude was not in a great state.
00:07:51
Speaker
Folly's going to look around. He's seen Drago rush to Claude. He's going to assume Claude is in safe hands at that. He's got Drago protecting him. Reluctantly, Folly has got a little bit of respect for Drago because of his power and reluctantly, Folly doesn't like to respect anybody. You should know that by now.
00:08:15
Speaker
Just like to incarcerate them, they're nice. Exactly. So what Follis wants to do, he's going to use a bonus action here and let loose a small bag that's just been on the side of his person. And it's not the cowl traps that I've used before. And as he does this, he's going to talk to himself and he's going to say,
00:08:45
Speaker
I know I was saving you for the upcrisp. But I'm hoping your rage will help right now. And he's going to empty out the bag of dragon teeth that he picked up from way back in Goldview when Folly had to do the unfortunate thing. So he's dropping them on the floor. He's going to move north.
00:09:12
Speaker
as much distance as what he can. That will instigate an attack of opportunity. I'm very well aware of that. Actually, I have to get away. I'm going to get attacked regardless of anything else. But yeah, I'm going to move north, and he's going to approach the ice wall. He's going to concentrate hard and cast Animate Objects on the dragon's teeth. So they're all going to come alive, and they are going to hover up into the air, and they're actually going to take
00:09:42
Speaker
a specific form that I'm basically going to use for flavor on the next turn, because I can't do anything else with animate objects at the moment. Awesome. We never agreed on the stats for that. So I'll just get through the other bits first. So the attack of opportunity was a natural one. Makes it a nine. Oh, thank God. Anyway, the, as I've met, you get free, you're clear of it, aren't you, right?
00:10:04
Speaker
Yeah, I think the wall goes, doesn't it, if you cast it? The wall goes because I've cast an animated object. That's why I said as he approaches the wall, he's going to cast it. And yeah, the wall's going to disappear. No problem. What I'll say is, what were the caltrops? Were they 1D4?
00:10:20
Speaker
Well, animate objects, technically, anything that I do is 1d4 damage. That will not change. It's if you wanted to give any type of damage to the teeth for whatever particular reason. I will give it the property so it would be slashing. Slashing damage? Piercing. Piercing damage, however, they are magical.
00:10:44
Speaker
piercing damage as opposed to just piercing damage which are the Keltrop to work so they had the magical quality to them they don't give fire anything particular but they are just magical yeah which means that it's your spell has jumped a rather sizable amount as well which i know you're very lovely yes wonderful okay and that it all follows going to do for a moment he's going to kind of end that movement just with a
00:11:13
Speaker
A big, deep breath because he knows the next few seconds odds going to really determine not just what happens to him and his comrades, but potentially the rest of the land as he knows it. Nice, very nice. Claude, your turn. Drago's just come over and touched you. What would you like to do? I will reach out and touch faith. I will reach out and touch faith as
00:11:43
Speaker
sort of on death's door trying to finish this incantation. Having received a bit of healing from Jago, I'm just going to reciprocate and pass some back to him as well. So the sum of 15 points of healing.
00:12:00
Speaker
Hey, we healed each other 15. Like that. Broforce. And yeah, we'll do like a fist bump in exchange of the heals. Like mutual masturbation. Nice, I like it. That's it. That's it. It's a beautiful moment, don't ruin it. God, masturbation. Nice. What a mark. What a mark. What a mark. I've ruined these moments. Yeah, that's a lot to do.
00:12:21
Speaker
Lovely, thank you very much as the spell ekes ever closer. You are getting closer and closer to casting this spell. Seven rounds to go which is not very much time at all. We pass down to Helena to the south where you have a Wraith in your space. Wraith in your space. Wraith in your space. What would you do with the Wraith in your space?
00:12:42
Speaker
It sounds like a game show. Herna is going to... Take two consonants and four vowels. Yeah, take a deep breath and she's going to, for a little bit of flavour, she's going to do a quick spin and with that spin she's going to get her flail and hopefully get that power built up and swinging it into the body of this figure. Fuck yeah, roll that, die.
00:13:08
Speaker
It was so close to a crit there, guys. That is a 14. That misses, unfortunately. That
Drago's Divine Smite and Tensions Rise
00:13:15
Speaker
first hit, miss. The second roll is a 16. 16 hits. Roll your damage. That then is a 13 points of damage. Nice. That hit comes square into its shoulder, knocking it back ever so slightly. Go for your next one. Thank you.
00:13:38
Speaker
And then the last one is a 22 to hit. 22 does indeed hit. With a 14 point of damage please. Very nice.
00:13:52
Speaker
as this next hit comes in more like around the around the head area catching the glancing hair off the top of this um kind of the crown that sits on top of these creatures heads and uh chipping off a part of it causing kind of like glass shards to fall off as it kind of screams back at you still standing but you've done a good bit of damage to that
00:14:12
Speaker
And I'm going to take our bonus action and go to hit again with a crit. Thank you very much. Yes. Nice. That would be a 32 to hit.
00:14:24
Speaker
Yes, that hits. 20 points of damage. Wow. Kill it. Kill that motherfucker dead. As like with the previous one, you've knocked off its offhand actually this time, but not the entire arm like the other one, just like from the forearm down as it comes to kind of protect itself, you smash down and it destroying one of its, and it kind of repels in kind of part fear, part pain. You're not really sure which. It is still standing, but it is now kind of clawless.
00:14:55
Speaker
Okay, just again, for a little bit of taste, she would have just turned over to, sorry, turned her head.
00:15:03
Speaker
towards Lucien, giving him a cheeky wink just before the final hit, before the final blow, and then smashes that down onto this figure. Yeah, okay, it's still standing, but she's done some incredible damage, so she's quite happy. Nice, really good stuff. She's panting, she's out of breath, but she's ready to take it out on the next turn, so. Awesome, good shit, thank you very much. Lucien unfortunately wasn't looking your way and doesn't see the look. Ah, no mind. But he is going to...
00:15:30
Speaker
turn towards the creature that passed through him and that is currently encroaching upon Claude's northern flank. He's going to take a swing at it. Boom, boom, boom. He's going to do a fucking hit. 10 points of damage. That's not too bad for Mr. Lucy and Blightbane. It's magical damage as well. Bang! Smashed this creature in the back. Oh, he gets another hit. He gets another attack.
00:15:58
Speaker
It's not going to hit, unfortunately. That's going to be the end of his turn. Blast exists to himself. Robin, your turn. You are currently in the space with the Wraith. There's a Wraith just off to your left. There's a Wraith to your right. Clangs to the left. Jokers to the right. And here you are sat with a bard at your feet. What would you like to do?
00:16:18
Speaker
Yeah, so Robin has taken a piercing to the ribs with one. Unperturbed from that, he's going to lash out with Ghostbane coming over the top of the shield and down across the clavicle. Is this the one that's currently in your space or the one that is off from you? This is the one that's in my space. Okay, lovely roll to hit. That's a 28 to hit. That hits. This damage is going to be big.
00:16:46
Speaker
yeah it is so let's start with the slashing damage before we move on 10 points of slashing damage okay magical and then as this glowing ghostbane hits almost like striking a fire to an anvil only instead of giving off piercing red
00:17:04
Speaker
Embers, what this gives off is shards of white. Ghostbane's glow crashes into its undead quarry for another 16 points of radiant damage. 26 points of damage in total. That is brutal.
Claude's Spell and Strategic Strikes
00:17:20
Speaker
Upon doing that, Robin is then going to now, like, where he usually uses technique and finesse. This is now a hammer striking an anvil. He's going to strike down again for a luck point, please, because I rolled a natural one. Sorry. That's my drama from Ross Effect. That's probably just as much meat as anything else. That's a 19, though. That does hit. Wonderful crit as well.
00:17:47
Speaker
I rolled an 8, so yeah, it's not a roll of 19. I only do that when I roll a 19. Oh, sorry man, I don't know. It's your catchphrase now. It takes... ...15 points of slashing damage. He's getting quicker. Wow. And the radiant shards kick off again, that is 2 nines, that is gorgeous. And 18 points of radiant damage on top of that. Wow.
00:18:17
Speaker
That is serious. You gave me the weapon. I know. You gave me the weapon. I gave you weapon. Yeah, I know. Well, you know, you know, it's going to be undead. Nice. It's too massive. Like you said, power strikes against this creature. Like literally, I'm not. I'm just thinking like in a clavicle clavicle, like two hits at the same place and it catches both timed, causing this kind of big open wound, like literally splitting it from the side of the neck to the shoulder, down the side of it. A large gaping wound appears and again,
00:18:43
Speaker
It almost looks quite crystalline, and the way you can kind of see all the intricacies of this glass interior almost, as this undead killer of a weapon starts smashing down, smiting down upon this foe. He is still standing. I would like this creature to make a strength saving throw, please. Yeah, I had no idea. Oh, a loss, actually. It rolled a 15, but it's going to be a 13. Fails.
00:19:08
Speaker
and it will take another two points of force damage and we'll move 15 feet away from me and Karstan. Is that just directly to the north? Where do you want him to go? To the north. Five, ten, fifteen, which puts it quite close to Folly's position but moved miles away from Karstan and yourself and let's be honest the kind of central foci of this battle clawed casting this spell for biddance. That's a really awesome set of moves there Robin. Anything else you want to do?
00:19:37
Speaker
No, I would love to action surge, but I've already used it, so no. You have indeed. Thank you for reminding our listeners. Robin, thank you. Great turn. Vance is going to step back one more time. So his back is to Lucian and take another swing at this creature. Oh, hitting it with his sword. For 12, 13 points, actually 13 points of damage.
00:20:05
Speaker
against this creature that's in front of him as he backs up and it just kind of mutters to Lucien and Claude, Robin, Karsten, and Droga would be able to hear. Vance just says, we're getting surrounded, we've got to push back.
00:20:21
Speaker
That's the end of his turn. The Wraiths. The Wraiths now have their turn. Creature's going to push in on to Vance. One is also going to push into Folly's position. Bollocks. Oh, the one that was in your space is gone now. Robin, the one that was in your space has been pushed back into Folly. The one that's near you and Karsten, it's going to turn its attention towards you. It's not going to move. No, it is going to move into your space. It is in your space.
00:20:49
Speaker
Drago, you have one in your space already. The one that is next to Lucian is going to back up into Lucian's space. There is going to be one in front of Claude, and the leader one, Drago, is going to aim itself towards you. Everyone is in contact in so much shape or form with these creatures. We're going to start with Helena. Helena, your turn first. It's going to roll an unnatural 20, 19 points of necrotic damage.
00:21:17
Speaker
Vance takes 16 points of necrotic damage. Lucian passes. The creature doesn't beat its AC. The one in Robin's space, that's an 18, that's not a 24. Is that going to hit Robin? Yeah, 24 is. 12 points of necrotic damage. Can you make a constitution saving throw? I will uncanny dodge that to bring it down to 6. No problem.
00:21:44
Speaker
And I will then make a constitution saving throw. 20, not natural. Absolutely fine. Drago, 16 against your armor class. That misses. OK, Claude, 17 against your armor class. That misses, sorry. Oh man, is that all them? Oh, it's a bit more damage than that. It's really annoying the people I wanted to hit. I can't believe I'm saying this to you. I've got one in me.
00:22:11
Speaker
I think you only get the king. You're right. You're right. Thank you very much. That's 23 against your armor class. Yeah, that hits. This is the one that's ending. This isn't the king one. This is the other one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. 14 points of necrotic damage. And could you make a constitution saving throw 23 passes.
00:22:31
Speaker
Before you move on, Mark, how much... I can hear Will's voice and I feel as if I need to say it. Both Folly and Drago need to make commsays for their spells. Which spells? Shield of Faith and Animate Objects. Oh yes, of course. I have Animate Objects. Thank you, Darren. Fuck you, Darren. Sorry, you bold bastard. A, fuck you, Darren. But B, I got 19, thank God. It's fine.
00:22:57
Speaker
It's all right, Darren, you bold, beautiful bastard. That's fine. To be honest, you two should be following it. This is the rules of the games.
00:23:04
Speaker
I
Crisis as Vance Collapses
00:23:05
Speaker
have no idea. I'm not a spellcaster. This is brand new. You've been playing D&D for three years. I forgot. So you both passed them anyways. This is the first time I've casted Shield of Faith. That is the, this is the Blight, but yeah, they are pretty much part of the Blight. That are the Wraiths. Turn. They are done. Top of the round. Drago. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Drago's going to, um,
00:23:31
Speaker
despite the one that's in him, turned towards the guy with the big crown on his head. So the one that's literally directly to the right of him. And he's going to, for the first time, attack with Dengone's deception. It's going to be reckless, which means anything that attacks me during this turn has got a vantage. I know, I know. And I'm also going to burn divine smite on this motherfucker as well.
00:23:57
Speaker
Oh, I'm going for it. If I using a spell slot and define smite, do I drop concentration? No, divine smite does not influence concentration. It's something you add to an attack.
00:24:11
Speaker
Oh boy. Let's do this. Come on. Come on. Come on. Crit, crit, crit. Okay. 26 for the first one. Yeah, I do. I do. I do. I do. I do. Come on for the crit. Come on, you motherfucker. Okay. I didn't get the crit. Okay. 26 for my first attack. 26 points of damage. The one of two of which is the divine smite things. And one is magical slashing.
00:24:41
Speaker
Nice. With Divine Smite, does it only hit on that first attack or can it follow me to second? Yes, but I have something to add. Did you add the bonus dice? Because it's undead, you get to add an additional damage dice. I was about to say. Oh, no, I did not. Roll one more D8. There we go. Yeah, because they're undead. I think I'm doing a really good job of playing, Will. You are. You're doing a great job. You are. You're doing a great job.
00:25:09
Speaker
Well done, Will. Thank you, Will. I'm going for my second attack then, so this will be without Divine. Okay. Unless I can burn it again and do it. Can I do it again? How many spell slots do you have? I've got another one. Yep, then you can do it again. Yep. Thank you. You can do it until you're out of spell slots.
00:25:27
Speaker
Come on, Drago. Do I do it, though? Because I've got to look after Claudey Claude. Do it. Do it. This is the hell, mate. I'm going to fucking do it. So still reckless in going for the second hit with Divine Smite again. Come on. He's just doing this and trying to commune with Akiva at the same time, just trying everything to keep the party alive. So every hit comes with more and more praise to Akiva.
00:25:58
Speaker
It's an unnatural 20. Oh, come on, 27. 27 hits. Edging closer.
00:26:08
Speaker
12 points of slashing damage,
Turning the Tide
00:26:12
Speaker
plus 18 points of radiant damage. So 30 points of damage in total. Yep. The second hit, literally your sword glowing with the ice power of Dengel's deception comes slamming down for a second time, slicing across its chest.
00:26:29
Speaker
across its chest causing this glacial effect of glass across it, cracking glass, but also you can see the blue embers of kind of almost white flames breaking off across its body as the second it comes in. But also mixed within the blue flames of Dengong's deception, you can see these black wisps of something ethereal, something else that seems to be attacking its form as the, sorry, want of a better word, the smite of Akiva starts to take its effect.
00:26:57
Speaker
Could you give me a religion check, please? Ian. Five. Okay, thank you very much. Is there anything else you want to do? Have you got another attack, a bonus action, anything? What happens if I... Can I step into Claude's space? You can pass through. I don't... I can't... I don't think you can... Can I occupy? Yeah, you just can't end your turn.
00:27:17
Speaker
I'll then know. I'm gonna stay where I am then and get ready for the onslaught of advantage attacks you've got against me. Just for everyone at home listening, or wherever you are listening, there's lots of, from everyone in the party, lots of forehead rubbing and lots of furrowed brows and lots of sweat dripping from everyone and lots of... We're all going to...
00:27:38
Speaker
What sort of intense looks going on just so you get a sense of where everyone really is. The sense of foreboding that's happening. Absolutely. This is indeed some close combat shit. Folly, you still have your now dragon teeth that have just started to take off as you animate the objects. How? How do you want to kill them all, I guess, is my next question.
00:28:00
Speaker
I don't think it's going to work quite like that. Okay. Finally, probably going to regret this somewhere along the way. He knows that a Wraith is pretty much in him. So he's going to try and focus his attacks on the ones round Drago and Claude right now. So the one that is the one in Claude. There's one next to Claude, there's one in Drago, and there's one next to Drago. So there's three in that area.
00:28:24
Speaker
OK, so I'm going for the one that is exactly parallel to Claude at the moment. That one, yes. And these dragon teeth are just going to raise up and fly straight towards and just try and penetrate and dice the shadows to shit. 17 hits. Oh, thank fuck for that. I'm very concerned.
00:28:49
Speaker
You can hear the clicks of a thousand dice. Go, Divos! Flying my pretties. Uh, 66 points of magical pieces. Whoa! Holy shit! I forgot, this is why I was so glad it nerfed and they were, the caltrops are non-magical. He hasn't been able to use it properly for fucking ages. 66. 66. You see these ten dragon's teeth.
00:29:16
Speaker
fly through here. You see these teeth slice through this creature's body and again causing these long striations of cracked glass across its body through its body and she thinks fly through its head, through its body, through its arms. It reaches out one claw to kind of stop it and the arm kind of gets just absolutely rinsed by the final three teeth as it pushes through. It's now another one armed one. I don't know why I keep losing the arms on these. Anyway, it's still standing but it is not looking in a good way at all. Anything else you want to do Folly?
00:29:43
Speaker
Can't tell me you can do that as a bonus action, can you? That is my bonus action, yes. It's a bonus action to control the dragon's teeth. Amazing. That says 66 points of damage on a fucking bonus action. Amazing, right. You've got an action, what do you want to do with it? Do a little dance, make a little love. Make a little love. I'm going to get down tonight. Hell yeah. A lot of my spells are just kind of area effect, so I'm going to have to be constrained and I'm just going to do Firebolt at the same one next to
00:30:10
Speaker
Claude that I'll just add all these. So all these dragon's teeth are going to be coming and fire bolts coming afterwards. There's literally a barrage of magical goodness. Lovely. I rolled a hit. Even worse. 16 hits. Ooh, go detents. Ooh, 27 points of fire damage. Jesus.
00:30:32
Speaker
I love it when Folly rolls well. At 9, 10 and 8 on those dice. It slams into the shoulder of this, knocking it back half an inch or so. It's still standing, but again, it's like trying to keep itself together. It's not in a good way at all. Anything else you want to do, Folly? Yeah, Folly is going to try and run for it.
00:30:56
Speaker
Father's going to try and run, he's going to try and run down towards Vant's school bloke. Vant's school bloke. Vant's school bloke. He's basically trying to find somebody to use as a meat shield right now, which unfortunately is Vant's school blade. So we've got a little bit of movement so we can just come down here
00:31:25
Speaker
He's purposely going to be a little bit south of Vance Schoolblade, so hopefully any race that may be in pursuit can just divert. So if you want to roll for your opportunity, attack and try and kill me. 27. Yeah, that hits! Thank you. I'd like to ask, just in case, it's all only polite, 17 points of necrotic damage. Oh my god. And could you make a constitution saving throw, please? Yes, I can.
00:31:50
Speaker
I mean, you did choose to leave its area, so... I know, I know, but it was going to attack me next to it in any way. Constitution saving throw. Correct. Okay, so that's 24, so I'm fine with that. Passes. Cool.
00:32:05
Speaker
Now I'll make another one for the animate object. Yes. Oh fuck yeah I do don't I? I don't know how it's me that's remembering this. You're a caster. Why do I get a crit on my constitution saving throw? For fuck's sake. God you remember it's so fucking hard. Oh I'm so concentrated. I'm in deep concentration right now. All the dragon teeth turn around and go oh so much concentration and then continue whipping around, beating everyone up.
00:32:31
Speaker
Um, they're all really camp teeth. You realize now it's actually a dragon. That's what you just, come on. Thank you. Thank you. A little more praise for being appreciated. Lovely. Uh, thanks. That was a violent turn. That was an incredible amount of damage actually. Um, I'm not kidding. That was over a hundred points of damage in total. If it had all been a hundred percent taken by the creature fucking resistances. So.
00:33:00
Speaker
Claude, it's your turn. You can feel a Gribbleed breathing down your back. You are literally 30 seconds away from casting the spell. Really? Well, almost 36 seconds away from casting the spell. OK, OK, OK. Yeah, I'm going to heal Jago again. Heal yourself! And if he keeps you alive, you're more likely to kill them. Yeah, you keep me alive. 13 points healing. Oh, nice.
00:33:26
Speaker
I'll take everything, means you'll survive another hit. And that's the end of my turn. I will continue to get more and more vocal and now within the approach in the 30 second mark, just this like dome of golden energy is slowly emanating out and will eventually, hopefully stretch to the seven and a half mile radius. Amazing. Okay. And it starts to slowly form almost like, I'm sure there's something in Harry Potter that does something like this where a little beam starts to
00:33:56
Speaker
Anyway, whatever it is, yes, I can totally envisage it. Really kind of a real kind of royal gold colour. White golden light starts to appear. This dome starts to form small over Carstan's body and starts to get bigger and bigger. Awesome. Oh, mate, what a fucking spell. Thank you, Claude. Helena, your turn. There's Gribblies now still in your space, but was looking rather worse for wear, if you remember last time. What would you like to do? She's just going to go in and tip. Thank you. Very quick. Fuck it up. Go for it.
00:34:25
Speaker
It was a natural one. She got a 13. That's fine. That misses unfortunately. Could you just roll a d20? No modifiers, just roll a d20. Oh right, that would have been an 11 then. That's fine, not a problem. You can now roll your second hit. Continue.
00:34:47
Speaker
That's a 27 to hit. That hits. That's a 12 points of damage. That's just exactly the right amount I had. You come in with the first hit, missing, and there's the next one back down right on top of the head. And again, the creature is just glass. And as it falls to the ground, it becomes small wisps of white smoke again, white mist, and joins the rest of the mist of the Blightlands.
00:35:11
Speaker
That creature has now been killed. You are creature-less in your surroundings. What would you like to do? She's going to let out a victorious... And then she's going to raise up with both of her flails in the air, punching the air, and then she's going to turn towards the rest of the party.
00:35:30
Speaker
and she's going to run back to them as far as she can go which is that's the 30 feet to the north. So you kind of stood the other side of the Wraith King that's facing off against Drago so the little group of three you are kind of joining the back of that flanking the king actually. Yes yeah and obviously noticing there probably that would have been the first time that she notices that the
00:35:56
Speaker
like that force fieldy thing, the ice force field thing has disappeared, so she's able to run towards them and yeah, know that she can help them. No problem, awesome. You've got two more attacks, and you're in advantage. And you've got action search. Sorry, you play you. Yeah, no, I was planning on doing that anyway, but I was waiting until I could get back to this point, so thank you. Okay.
00:36:23
Speaker
I actually thought that because I'd made my moves, I couldn't take another attack. Don't know why I thought that. Yeah, okay, great. So then I'm gonna attack the one that's attacking Drago. Okay, the kind of leader of the group. Fuck yes, kill him. Here we go, two more attacks before anything else. Kill that motherfucker. Bitch, 29 to hit. That hits. I like that. Did you just tell him to say bitch? Yeah, she does, yeah. This creature, bitch. Yes, that hits.
00:36:52
Speaker
That's going to be a 12 points of damage. No worries. 12 points of damage. Yes. Nice. As it hit in its back. Ow. Shit. It says in its head, but obviously doesn't say how it lied. Remember, you do get you do get these rolls with advantage Casey as well. So you can roll again for a crit if you want, because you're flanking this creature with Drago, you can roll with advantage. Because that's fucking teamwork. Yeah. One more before you if you choose to action, Serge. That's going to be a 28 to hit.
00:37:23
Speaker
That hits. Do you want to roll for the crit anyway? Yes, I will. Never mind. It was 23, but it's not, you know...
00:37:30
Speaker
First one problems here. I'll take the first one. Anyway, he goes. Anyway, he goes, it hits. So fine. 13 points of damage. This is actually seen from Drago's perspective. And as you're looking up in the healing from Claude, as these creatures seem to just surround the two of you, you start to think, shit, shit, shit. This is really coming to a head now. You just see the kink, take a hit to the back, and then he stops still for a minute. The yellow eye is still piercing at you before.
00:37:56
Speaker
Again, it just shatters in front of you hitting the ground and all you see Drago is the sweaty figure of Helena, a flail still kind of stuck in the ground, pulls it back out. I imagine her hair flicking there as well. Sweat pouring down the face, panting hard at the look of absolute battle rage in her eyes as she just twats this motherfucker to death. Amazing. He is dead. Or it's a he. Rave Slayer.
00:38:23
Speaker
She just gives a knowing nod at you. God, Jago's got more than a knowing nod for you. Let's talk about his cloaca. Can I use my, yeah, can I use my action surge anyway and then bosh this other fucker on the brain? Yes, you can. Three more attacks. Three more attacks. Oh my God. Okay. That's good to unleash. Am I flunking these or not? No? Yes. Nice. You've got it. No.
00:38:54
Speaker
You've moved. Oh, so I think there's something there. I don't think that's fine. It's a 15 to hit. I will give you this. You only move 20 feet. You've got 10 feet left of movement. There is a rock there that would cause to be rocky terrain, which would mean it would have your movement. But you've still got 10 feet, which means you've got five feet of movement left. You could get on top of it. That would be absolutely fine. And would give you the flank or you could. Yeah, let's get on top.
00:39:24
Speaker
Let's dig up an end. Yay! Yeah, that's fine. So it's just difficult terrain, which means it would halve your movement, which means you can still get there anyway. So you're now standing slightly higher, perched on top of this kind of large mossy rock. You know, it won't affect your roll at all, but you've got a bit of height on this bitch now as well. Okay. So then can I take the advantage then? Yes, you can. And you can roll all three of these hits, fucking hell, three attacks with advantage.
00:39:52
Speaker
We just unleashed Helen an hour upon the others. Okay, so the first one's 27. That hits. Right, I'm gonna just roll my hits first, if that's okay.
00:40:03
Speaker
as a 20 non-natural to hit. Yep. Can I just preface this? This creature has been hit quite a few times, Casey. So what you might want to do is just do the damage for the first one and let's hold those other two hits just because from your perception, you would look at this creature and say, you are not long for this plane of existence. So you might not consider doing all three hits on it straight away if you get my hint, hint, nudge, nudge,
00:40:31
Speaker
Yeah, it's cool. That's a 14 points of damage then on the first one. Thank you. Yeah, you kill it. You kill it dead. I think I think that you just take a step and hop up on this rock and just hit it on the head, literally side of the head, like low, low shot and just the head rumbles off again. It tends to kind of glass ice and turns into the mist on the floor and the rest of the body works down from the neck down. And the same happens to that as well. That creature is also dead. Guys, you're making Helen look. Helen, they look really cool. She is fucking cool.
00:41:01
Speaker
Slay Queen. You've still got two more. Just get this chant. Helena, Helena. Breaking out. All the undead zombies are like, Helena, Helena. Who's Helena? Unfortunately, the other wraiths that you could reach, you can't actually reach anyone else. You're out of movement, so we'd be unable to hit the others. However, I mean, you've killed three of them, including their leader. Yeah, I'm tanking this. And I've already done my bonus action, haven't I?
00:41:31
Speaker
Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, so then I'll just wait then. I was going to actually change weapons, but I'm going to wait because I can't do anything. If you want to change weapons, because you've kind of action surged, I could give you that because normally you would have two more attacks. You could cash in those two attacks for a switching weapon if you want, considering you've just burned your action surge and only got to use one of them. I'll let you change weapons. Well, where are the other Wraiths?
00:42:00
Speaker
You've got a wraith within the space of Lucian Blightbane. You've got a wraith within the space of Vance, one within Robin and one within Drago. So we've still got four of these creatures. I think there's one to the north that Folly left behind as well. Correct. Yes. And there's one to the north. So still five of these creatures left. Yeah. Then I'm going to change. I'm going to change to my bow, please. My long bow.
00:42:21
Speaker
Okie dokie, and that'll burn through your other two, the rest of your action search for that. Lovely, thank you very much, Helena, for an absolutely stonking... Do you know what? I thought you knew you were gonna use that word. It was a fucking stonker of a round, mate, that's why. Lucien is gonna turn and go, fuck me, sis, what a stonker of a round.
00:42:43
Speaker
And he's going to take in the fucking rage that you just released. And he's going to do the same. Boom, and hits the creature that's in his space. Bitch, he's going to shout. Going to cause 11 points of damage to that one. And he has a second attack as he swings his arm back, bang, into the second hit off the side.
00:43:07
Speaker
like 14, which doesn't hit, unfortunately, as the race just moves slightly out of direction and he misses. Oh bugger! Now he's starting to sound like the other guy now. He's much cooler than that is. He's like, ah, fuck. No, that's Northern. I don't know where I'm going. Anyway, ignore me. I'm just hyped. Right. And that's the end of Lucian's turn. Robin, your turn. You just seen Helena coming literally as Miley Cyrus would say, like a wrecking ball. Wait, Miley Cyrus? Yeah. Yeah, Miley Cyrus. She came in. You're not Hannah Montana.
00:43:36
Speaker
not Hannah Mantella, and it's just wiped out three of these birches really clearing the area around Claude and Drago. What would you like to do?
00:43:43
Speaker
Robin is just going to spend a brief second of his six seconds just admiring what he has just seen, which can only be described as a tour de triumph of Marshal prowess. But he's not going to dwell on that for too long because he's still currently occupied by a Wraith. So he's going to swing for the Wraith that is in his person and look to send it a pack in. Send it. Send it.
00:44:14
Speaker
That is a 27 to hit. That does, hang on a minute, sorry, pause that, it does hit. Where are you striking at this creature previously? I struck at the one that I pushed away, so this one I haven't struck at before. Yeah, okay, this is a, yeah, just checking I've got the right one here, because I've just had to number them all one to 10. Yes, that does hit. Can it also make a strength saving throw, please? 10 points of slashing damage, and then four points of radiant damage. 14 points in total.
00:44:45
Speaker
Love it. It takes the damage and fails the strength saving throw. Just five feet, so it's sandwiched between me and Lucian. Okay. Now I'm going to swing at it again with advantage. Ooh, nice. You naughty man. 23 to hit. That doubly hit. That does hit, yes. But it's also taking some sneak attack damage this time. 20 points of flashing damage and...
00:45:12
Speaker
8 points of radiant damage, 28 total. Ruddy hell, you guys are rolling well. Get some good damage on these guys. Lovely, and you've taken up the, again, the sneak attack damage really hits home at this creature, again, causing these marks of, was this with Ghostbane? This is still with Ghostbane. Yep, causing these marks of Ghostbane's damage all over its body, really affecting it. It's not looking great, but it's still upright. Anything else you want to do?
00:45:37
Speaker
Yeah, so how this looks now, I know that both hit, it's a quick shot, the blade comes across from left to right to send it backwards and then almost like whirling up an upper cup with a blade. It's just then going to come straight up the chest with the
00:45:52
Speaker
second and more powerful blow and that is the end of Robin's turn. Good blowing there Robin. All that laugh Casey my lord lovely thank you for that it's great thank you Robin for that. Vance is going to take a swing at the creature that is in him
00:46:14
Speaker
and hits with a 17, 11 points of damage, he's very consistent against the creature that's in his current space. That is the end of his turn, the Wraiths attack. This is always the most fun part really.
00:46:31
Speaker
The Wraith disagree. The Wraith that is to the north is going to whoop himself back down into Robin's space. The Wraith that's between Lucian and Robin are going, it's going to leave your spaces and move into Helena's space, provoking an attack of opportunity on both of them. So Robin, would you like to take your attack of opportunity? Oh my goodness. I'm going to get so much stick for this, but I roll a natural 19. That's a 30 to hit.
00:46:59
Speaker
That does hit, but it's one of a crit. So it would be a crit for Helena, but unfortunately it's not for you. Roll your damage. Sorry, I said all your catchphrases then in one go. You did. It's just misstavicus, which I'm currently adding up. Lucian missed, by the way. He rolled an eight. It takes 14 points of slashing damage and 11 points of radiant damage.
00:47:21
Speaker
25 in total. Okay. It's a decent bit of damage. Not too bad. Right. So they're all the movements done. Now they're going to do some attacks. So we're going to start randomly, uh, on the one with the Vance Vance. Uh, that's an eight. No, that's a three 11. So that's going to miss Vance Lucien. That's a four. Gosh, I've suddenly rolled shit. That's a 12. It's going to miss Robin. Come on. So it's 21. That one that is going to hit and I can't do anything about it because I've used my reaction.
00:47:48
Speaker
13 points of necrotic damage and I need you to make a constitution saving throw. Consave is 24. 24 passes. The one in Helena is a 22 against your armour class.
00:48:02
Speaker
Yeah, that hits, yeah. That is going to be... Oh, sorry, I rolled very well with these d8s. That's eight, eight and sevens, which is 26 points of necrotic damage. That's almost the max I can roll for that. But I only take half because I'm... Yes. You take 13 points of necrotic damage and you negate the consave because it's based off the necrotic damage. And then the one in Drago.
00:48:28
Speaker
Advantage. I get to advantage, thank you, because it rolled a six. And then rolled a five! So now it's going to be nowhere near. Fuck! I thought I'd at least get a guaranteed hit on... Even with advantage. Fuck's sake. Even with advantage, that motherfucker fails. Okay, but you're going to take the force damage at the end of the turn. Vance is going to take a hefty seven. Ooh, he is not looking good. Shit. Lucian's going to take seven. Robin, you're going to take eight points of force damage. Yep.
00:48:57
Speaker
Helena, you're taking one point of force damage. That's no fun. Drago, you're taking six points of force damage. Does that make me happy to roll a constitution saving throw for my concentration? Yeah, but that's the constitution, isn't it? Correct. Yeah. Okay. I'm learning. Seven. My shield's gone. Your shield is gone. Your AC drops by two. Blue light just flicker away. That is the end of the Wraith's turns.
00:49:25
Speaker
To the top of the round, Drago. What would you like to do? You've just seen Helena clean up most of it, and you've just got the one in your current space to deal with. I'm so glad. So with eyes of relief and fire in Helena's direction, he's striking with Dengon's deception, reckless again against a creature in front of him. Nice. Okay, roll the hit. 26. That hits.
00:49:52
Speaker
14 points of slashing damage. Nice. And then, once again, Tengo steps in over his head just a single slice down for his second attack. 29. That had 17 points of slashing damage. Ignore that. Yeah, 17 points. Gotcha. Lovely. Two hits in on this creature. Again, shards flying off it. Still, this one was in pretty good nick, actually. So you start to take a bit of damage out of it, but it's still in a strong position. Anything else you want to do, Dragro?
00:50:19
Speaker
Nope, caught holding position, protecting Claude. We are 30 seconds away from the spell launching. Folly, your turn. Almost everyone in the party seems to have this wraith creature kind of around it, surrounding him as they try and fight them off. What do you want to do? Folly is just going to keep circling at the moment, so even though he's quite close to this one that's inside of Ant, he's still going to travel a little bit down towards the south. So he's just going to kind of sneak behind Helena a little bit, but put himself level with the
00:50:49
Speaker
Drago. And there's one of these wraiths inside Drago as it were in there. So it's kind of he's going to go for that one. He's still close to Claude. And while Folly doesn't understand why everybody seems to be wanting to protect and heal Claude right now, they seem to be a aura generating from him. So Folly is going to go with how the party feels and go with the flow.
00:51:16
Speaker
But before you do this, just question. Yes. An animate object. All right. Oh, I'm not going to say anything. You bastard, Darren, you are.
00:51:29
Speaker
Let him do it. Sorry, I've messed it though, I've interfered. Yep, you proper metered. I haven't assumed because everybody can actually attack these creatures that there is some form of their own, there is some visual form of the enemy that I can hit without actually hitting Drago. Maybe.
00:51:49
Speaker
Maybe put it this way if you're aiming at the same you let's say you weren't even gonna be thinking about this until Darren Because everybody else has been able to hit them when they've been in them I thought there was some form it's like they're occupying the same space You were just gonna go roll you were just gonna go roll until Darren said question
00:52:15
Speaker
The reason why I'm letting them roll is because they're in their own space. It would just be like a swipe here, a slash there. If you're hitting in, I've always assumed that you, yes, you are aiming for a creature within the space, but really like battleships, you're aiming for like D6 or F5, like the square and the creature within that square. So there would be a chance, I would set a DC for this. And if your hit was,
00:52:41
Speaker
above the DC you would pass it and therefore the accuracy would be enough so basically it's not good enough you'd have to hit you'd have to aim as well so be an additional role for you to make to get this to hit the creature and not hit drago but if you miss you'd still hit drago but you'd also still hit the creature so it's you hit the creature on its own or you hit the creature and drago that would be the same for all them if you're going to use a ranged weapon
00:53:07
Speaker
In all fairness, Folly would still think he'd go for it. If he can see little remnants of these things and these dragon teeth being so fine, he would still think, that's where I need to aim for. Drago would want these things down. This is how it's going to work. Oh no, I don't want you to do this. I don't want you to do this at all. That's going through Folly's head. But like, I literally, this wasn't even going to be a conversation.
00:53:32
Speaker
And it's something that I probably would have brought up anyway to make clear during the role. It's gone midnight. I'm emotional. I'm really enjoying it. I know. I know. This is... I'm not changing my plans. I'm sticking with it. So this is how it's going to work. As long as you don't beat Drago's AC, it doesn't affect him. As long as I don't beat Drago's AC.
00:53:53
Speaker
Just roll an attack, man. And just see who you hit. I rolled 18. I don't know what that means. Okay, that hits me. And that also hits the creature. So you're hitting both of them. You're hitting the creature, no matter what. So this creature is going to take the full brunt of the damage. You are also going to be hitting Drago. Could you please roll your 10 D4s, please? 10, 1 D4s. You asshole. This is magical. Oh god. I'm very sorry about this, Drago.
00:54:23
Speaker
No, fuck you. I'm very, very sorry. Stupid. I'm killing you. A little bit. If I don't die. A little bit. A little bit. Sorry. 66. Oh, Callum. The creature's still a hub.
00:54:44
Speaker
Are you fucking kidding? But it's like a wisp of its former self. It is barely functioning as a function. Drogo's down anyway. Drogo's still up. You may have missed this. And with cold fury looking at you. Cold fury. This is why I kind of spotted near Helena right now. I was going to slide a little bit back behind Helena.
00:55:11
Speaker
Yeah, you've never ever seen this look in Drago's eyes directed at you before, ever. The Wraith, though, is not looking healthy at all. It is absolutely covered in affectations all over itself. Is that the end of your turn, Folly, before you kill another one of our characters off? Well, that was just my bonus action. I still got my actual action yet. Fair enough.
00:55:41
Speaker
In all fairness, as this attack has happened, and obviously he's seen that while aiming for the creature hit Folly, I'm going to just try and cast Minor Illusion as a cantrip just to put like a tree in front of me.
00:55:57
Speaker
It's something else for Folly to hide behind. Just to try and... There's no say for it, anything like that. I'm literally going to kind of play with my action a little bit here, cast Minor Illusion, to put a tree or a shrub in front of me just to try and think Drago's... Well, it's coming from somewhere else. Right, you put a Christmas tree in front of you.
00:56:19
Speaker
There you go. And it's their perception to see if they believe it or not. Yeah. Cool. Okay. Brilliant. That's lovely. There's a little Christmas tree in front of you now. There's some festive lights on it. You better hope I don't live through this. And that's not just Drago. That's Ian as well. That's Ian coming back out on that as well. Ian wanted to kill me.
00:56:43
Speaker
All right, thank you, Folly, for a very entertaining round. Claude, you are 30 seconds away from this spell being cast. You're forbidden. Anything you want to do. There's a creature just next to you in Drago that's just been absolutely minced. What would you have to do? I'm going to kill Helena. Kill? Cure.
00:57:01
Speaker
I'm not him. I'm not. Jokes. Ollie. He's actually Grazert. Yeah, Helena gets 12 points of healing. Thanks. And... What a gent. That's my turn. I carry on casting the spell. Lovely, thank you very much. Helena, you feel a little bit warm inside as 12 points of healing comes into your body and you hear the quiet, oh shit, of a gnome behind you and a Christmas tree appear to your right and a wraith is in your personal space. Okay. But all happen in the same time. What would you like to do?
00:57:31
Speaker
Helena is going to, after hearing, oh shit, she's going to turn around to see this Christmas tree and say, that's really festive. And then she's swapping back her longbow over to her flails again, because she wants to attack this thing in front of her. All right. I'm going to say that's going to munch through your bonus action, but you can use your action for them. And then three attacks on this thing in front of me. Cool. Go to rod hip. Bastard. 20 non-natural. That hits.
00:58:01
Speaker
Again, I'm just gonna roll my... I wouldn't. Hit. 21 to hit. It's pretty low on health. Just a four. It's pretty low on health. It's low on health. Oh, okay. Just to save you re-rolling it again if you want to change targets. Then that would be an 11 points of damage. That wasn't enough. But yeah, that is some good bit of damage on it. It is still standing still. Would you like to roll your second attack?
00:58:32
Speaker
okay sorry i thought you're gonna roll all three i want to save you rolling anyway sorry do your thing casey i'm so then it was a 21 to hit on the second time that would also hit eight points of damage kills it dead gone smoked from existence boom your kill streak it's up to four
00:58:52
Speaker
Anything else you want to do? You've got movement, you've got a Christmas tree. You want to go, I don't know, spread some festive cheer. Why is this becoming a Christmas episode? Yeah. Folly. Light a fire, start some choir singing. Mince pies. She's very maternal, is that, Helena? No, she's not. She's going to, where's another one? There's one in Lucy and Blightbane, there's one in Drago, there's one in Robin.
00:59:20
Speaker
Okay, she's going to shout over to Lucien. Bru, have you got this? He can't answer yet, but he looks like he will answer you. Okay, well that will determine my next move. I'm just going to say that she goes over to you him, so let's go the 10 feet to the north to be with Lucien to try to help him off the one that's with him.
00:59:48
Speaker
Cool. Lovely. Thank you very much. Um, the, uh, wraith, what was it? Wraith smiter. You were being called earlier. Slayer. Whatever it was. Yeah. Wraith slayer. That's funny. Like hell another wraith slayer. Uh, thank you for that. Helen at Lucian is going to go. Nope. Is going to take a step back.
01:00:12
Speaker
giving the creature some room between the two of you and he's going to swing his mace at this creature, holding a 10 for the first one and an unnatural 20 for the second. The unnatural 20 gives him 13 points of magical damage against this creature. He's been doing all right with this one actually.
01:00:31
Speaker
Get it down, but it's still standing, but it is now open. It's clear between the two of you. There is also one still within the vicinity of Vance as well. That's Lucian's turn. Robin, your turn. You've got a creature in your mix. You've also got one made clear between Lucian and Helena. Robin is aware of what's just happened to Drago? Yeah, you'd see. Sorry, that was a question. You were waiting. Yes, yes. You would have seen Dragon Teeth flying at its face, yeah.
01:00:58
Speaker
Robin's going... And probably heard me because that was painful. Also, Callum should have had, because I've reckless, technically Callum had advantage on me. That would have been interesting. Ooh, a crit, oh dear. Robin's going to just go grip through his teeth and go, damn, you can't stand at the unconscious courts that he thinks he is determined to ensure survive this fight. And it's going to
01:01:29
Speaker
continue to attack the one that's engaged with him. Okay, roll to hit. That is a, it's another 19, it's a 30 to hit. That hits. Nine points of slashing damage and 17 points of radiant damage.
01:01:47
Speaker
Dead, dead, dead, this creature, as with another hit, as you always aim for the wound that's already gaping in this creature's clavicle, you push further through, and it splits through to where, normally, where a heart would be, and then kind of cuts diagonally back across the body, and cleaving this thing in half, and as it does so, it all turns to this weird glass material forced to the ground, and then comes up as wisps of smoke again. That creature is gone.
01:02:12
Speaker
Anything else you want to do, Rob? Yes, there is definitely something I want to do. I'm going to move through Karstan's body and I'm just going to shout as I go, Helena, Karstan, and I'm going to get to Drago and I'm going to use bait and switch with Drago to get him out of the way of the creature that he's engaged with. Nice. I love bait and switch. I'm not worried about the creature I'm engaged with. You're about to become Folly Fodder.
01:02:42
Speaker
Either way, you're about to get a massive AC boost just to see you through the next round in a bit. So if Drago could swap with me, if he's willing, that is. Are you willing to swap Drago? No.
01:02:59
Speaker
Sorry man, I am fucking fuming and I'm not paying attention. Drago's in a blind, blind spitting venom. I think you got attacked by a tree as well. There's no logical thought and coherent. He's already been attacked by Folly. Seeing you coming up next to him, he can only trust himself right now.
01:03:22
Speaker
So no, it's not a willing move. Okay, that's fine. So bait and switch is not happening. That is okay. Um, upon seeing this very angry dragonborn, I'm still going to take, yeah, I'm going to take a swing at the, that you know, I'm not, I don't want to risk hitting him. I can see it's engaged with him. I myself and bloodied and moving around.
01:03:51
Speaker
what i am going to do then is i use 10 feet of movement i'm going to almost angrily just shout drago you bloody idiot and i'm going to move over to use my movement back to go to the one that's between blance gold by lucian and helena uh will provoke an attack of opportunity from the creature with by drago fine 14
01:04:18
Speaker
Misses. Nips. That's the creature sound, not me. Okay, lovely. And you got yourself right up in the mix now with the creature near Lucian and Helena and protecting Karstan. Awesome. I'm going to attack. I'm going to... I've still got my second attack. Go for it. And I'm coming in with a full-on leap through the air to stab this creature. Superman style with Ghostbane.
01:04:43
Speaker
for a it's another 19 you know it's another 30 to hit that does hit like Achilles from uh Troy yeah yeah that's exactly how i was thinking Achilles Roman Reigns style smash if he's still doing Superman punch um seven plus
01:05:03
Speaker
Now do sneak attack damage. 14. If anyone is update with WWE and wants to let us know if Roman Reigns is still doing this Superman. He is. He's still doing it. He's still doing it. He's going to plug, you know, let us know one fellowship table. Hey man. We're going to plug WWE and hope that Vince McMahon reaches into his pockets and graces us with his billions.
01:05:23
Speaker
I love it. So you're fired. 30 points for slashing damage. How much? 30. 30 thanks to SneakyTac and 3 points of radiant to 33 total.
01:05:35
Speaker
Man, this creature's not looking too good. It's not expecting this either. And as you come in, you literally just lop off one of the arm, one of the claws, just at the risk. And it's just a stub now where the claw was of this creature that is now surrounded by the other rest of the party. Not looking good. Any other attacks, Robin? Yeah, as I land, I just go, never mind, I've got Karstam. And that's me then.
01:05:57
Speaker
Lovely, thank you very much. Vance is trying to fight off the one that is currently in his face and rolls a 2 and is going to be unable to do that in his current bloody state. The Wraiths attack. We'll start with the one that's just faced off with Vance. Oh, that is a 19. That's one off a crit. Vance is down. Vance is down. Just add on.
01:06:22
Speaker
that he collapses in a heap on the ground. That is the Wraith's turn. The one that is in the mix between you all is going to move into Robin's space. There's only one in Drago now. Vance Drago. That's it, isn't it? Yep.
01:06:38
Speaker
And the one in Dragospace is going to attack you. That is an advantage. Thank you. 19 again. That is a 27 against your armor class. Both hit, both hit. 18 points of necrotic damage. And could you make a constitution saving throw? 23. No worries. You're absolutely fine. Robin, the one in your space, that's an unnatural 20. Defensive dualist.
01:07:05
Speaker
No problem. And therefore that misses. Vance's has already worked. They're all now going to, at the end of the turn, take force damage, which causes Vance to have an automatic failure on one of his death saves. So he's at one death save failure. Robin, you're going to take six points of force damage. Drago, you take seven points of force damage. Drago's down.
01:07:27
Speaker
Okay, top of the round, drag out your danker to make your first, for quite a while, your first death save. I can. That's a d20, right? That's a d20. 12. Pass. First one is a pass. Jesus Christ. Vance is on.
01:07:46
Speaker
One fail, the draw goes on one pass. Okay, Ducky, thank you very much. Folly, your turn. You've just seen two prized fighters both drop to these people. You're hiding behind a Christmas tree. Helen's moved forward. What do you want to do? I still just love it hiding behind a Christmas tree. It's the only tree I could draw. I can't draw another tree on this. It's fine. It's just brilliant.
01:08:13
Speaker
Folly is going to just kind of poke his head around the Christmas tree illusion that he's kind of done. He's going to learn from his state since all the other raids are currently occupied by the same space as people. So I think he's going to do the only thing that he can actually kind of do relatively safely is going to move just to try and get behind Drago. And I want to try and stabilize him. Can I do that? I've never actually had to do this before.
01:08:41
Speaker
Yes, he did stop him for making death saving throws. Yes, medicine check and it's plus 10 you stabilise. Cool. I got an 11. That just about passed, so you stabilise him. He is no longer dying. He is at zero hit points. Okay.
Final Assault and Victory
01:09:02
Speaker
I'm just going to kind of stay there at the moment and I'm just going to bring the Dragon's Teeth kind of near me at this stage. Almost like he's on guard and waiting. Lovely. Claude, 24 seconds away from the spell being cast. I don't know what to do. Cast Spare the Dying on Vance, so he's stable. So he's also stable, thank you very much. Is that everything you're doing? Yes.
01:09:32
Speaker
That's everything I'm doing. Okie dokie, thank you very much. Seconds tick away. Helena advances down. The creature is still kind of floating above him, so you could attack that one. There is also one attacking Robin. What would you want to do? I'm going to go for Vance at this stage. Yeah, not for him. I'm going to go for the Wraith that's sort of going to go to... No worries. And because Vance is down and the creature is up, you can attack it quite straightforwardly. You haven't got to roll like you're going to hit Vance, don't worry. Unless you roll a one. An 18 to hit.
01:10:02
Speaker
that hits a 25 to hit that also hits and a 24 to hit that hits as well you have got a bonus attack if you want to use it my bonus attack is um a 19 that is a crit crit baby
01:10:18
Speaker
So that means you roll the damage for basically four attacks plus the dice for a fifth. Bitch! So, good luck with the maths. You're gonna need a hell of a stabacus for that. Yeah, my head would explode. I wouldn't be able to handle that. Your head would fall out. Oh, wait. Again, a great package to fall out. It would stun my growth, you know. Yeah. What would happen while she's doing that? My beard would run off the bottom of my face onto the top and then kind of... 55 points of damage, boys.
01:10:46
Speaker
Holy shit. Is that including your crit damage at the end of the case? Yeah. Nice. This creature went from almost full to almost dead very, very quickly. It is still up. Vance has taken a couple of good hits out of it, but you've just, you've just, yeah, this is, this is flickering, a flickering entity of what it previously was. Um, well done. Fuck me. That 55. She was going to, she's going to sort of run, run into this thing. Um, and with a jump,
01:11:12
Speaker
She's going to bring both of her flails down at the same time, bashing it just continuously together. So it's sort of like trying to splatter it together. Yeah, kind of whipping it almost like a batter. Nice. It's Lucian's turn. Lucian in a blind rage is also then going to turn his mace towards this creature over him as well, hitting and causing hopefully the killing blow. Yep, eight points of damage. Sorry, nine points of damage killing the creature.
01:11:41
Speaker
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. Just as you pull back away, out of breath for that final second, Lucien's mace is just, he's thud into the side of this creature's head. And again, it falls in a heap on the ground and he instantly uses the rest of his movement to move closer to Vance, lower down to him and start checking on him to make sure he is all right, which he is because he has Spare the Dying Castle on him by Claude very kindly. That's Lucien's turn. Robin, you've got a creature up in your space. What would you like to do?
01:12:09
Speaker
Yes, Robin is aware of where Castan and Claude are, is going to use his fancy footwork just to get to the south of this creature. So he is positioned between Castan, Claude and the creature. Cool.
01:12:25
Speaker
And then what he's going to do is as he leans back, he's going to thrust straight in with the first swing of Ghostbane. Woof! And he'd roll the crit. Yay! Critically thrust. Critically thrust. Critically thrust. Critically. Critically critically.
01:12:45
Speaker
I've never heard you say, that's what she says. Then I started watching the American office, that's what happened there. 24 points of slashing damage and now let's do the radiant. Don't bother. If you were interested, but you're not, so it doesn't matter. It would have been 16 points of radiant.
01:13:03
Speaker
So in 39 points of damage in total, Darren, that is a lot of damage. Good shit. I only had 14 points of HP left, and you can't overkill it. This creature is also killed as you finally unleash the power of Ghostbane into it, and again, this creature smashes to the ground. There's almost like a swirling area of mist as these creatures start to fall, not in a dangerous way, but just as they return to the mist form that surrounds the Blightlands. The final creature is still alive, all up in Drago's unconscious body.
01:13:32
Speaker
uh advance is i still have a second attack apologies please go ahead i'm going to move south then see that drago is down and take a swing at this wraith that is standing over his body okay roll to hit kill this motherfucker please that is a 20 not natural to hit
01:13:52
Speaker
That does hit. And Darren, I'm going to say whatever you roll, it has three HP remaining. So even if you rolled the worst you possibly could, I think, even with your modifier, that's dead. So yeah, this creature again, that's standing over, is killed as well. Robin, are we out of initiative? We're
Calm After the Storm and Conclusion
01:14:14
Speaker
about to be, yes, yes, yes you are.
01:14:16
Speaker
So can I do because Robin is immediately just gonna scream Drago and he's going to drop to the floor and start searching for a health potion But actually realize he's out of one. So he's panically searching for a healing potion, but doesn't have one You said you may but it's no it's no it's no over his friend He would eventually then turn to see if Drago has one, but that's probably someone else should have a turn before I do that Anyone else want to do anything?
01:14:42
Speaker
Oh wait, are we out of initiative? We're just about to cast. This spot is about to cast. Oh, well then I'll just, well I've got a few seconds, ping off two quick heals to Phantom Drago. Just level ones.
01:14:58
Speaker
They both get three points of healing. Okay, both are conscious, both come round. Drago, Vance, Vance isn't here, why am I talking to him? Drago, as you open your eyes, you expect to see the foggy covered sun sitting almost like a pale moon above you, but instead what you start to see is this massive orb of light start to expand out and grow bigger and bigger and bigger. It forms out and engulfs you all for a second as it passes through you.
01:15:27
Speaker
Drag out as you wake up you start to expect to see the sun above your head but instead what you start to see is this large golden light start to expand out out out out it surrounds all of you and as Vance slowly sits up and the Christmas tree starts to jangle slightly and Folly daintily looks out from around the area to check on you the shields this
01:15:44
Speaker
Golden light seems to all seem to sit over you just as a group as Claude you continue to chance more and more and more and it starts to expand out slightly but then stops for a couple of seconds and then you feel this almighty ringing and this buzz in your ears as the presence of Akiva starts to rise and rise and Drago you get this incredible sense of
01:16:05
Speaker
power claw this incredible sense of power as your deity starts to kind of feel closer and closer to you as Akiva himself gives way power of the souls that he has in the eternal plane to push the shield and instead of slowly eking out suddenly it expands out of your field division past the trees and beyond and you just hear a cacophony of screams yelps cries from all directions and these small fires burst and and this this overwhelming sense of
01:16:35
Speaker
calmness over the area as in a seven mile radius around your location you have just cast forbiddance and for a second all you can hear is the quiet panting of your martial fighters drago grunting as he sits up and then you all hear oh that was a good sleeper what did i miss
01:17:02
Speaker
as Carstan sits up face covered in mud and looks around at you all. And that's what we're going to leave it for this week's episode of the fellowship of the tabletop. Oh, brilliant. We got there. That was close, guys. That was fucking close. Thank you. Close, close. May I ask? I'm more like fucking worried about my own party members than anything that's touched me. Like normal, that's what always seems to happen in this campaign. The danger comes from within.
01:17:32
Speaker
You wanted to ask how close people were. Yeah, where were we? I don't know, Claude, where were we back to where you were? I was on four hit points. This was edging at its finest. Absolutely. Helena, how many hit points were you on, Case? Oh, well, I was on about 30 actually, so I wasn't too low, but with my highest being like 104, I was getting there. Folly? Two.
01:17:59
Speaker
That's why I'm running like a manic, running around like a maniac. I'm trying to get away from everything. How are you looking, Darren?
01:18:08
Speaker
I was actually looking okay, I was on 70. Confusion saved me because it basically took me out of taking any damage and I was on full health at the start of that fight. Very true, so you were your tank. Same with Castan, he would have been in the same position, but instead took 15 points of damage, but you protected them well. I managed to let Claude cast that incredible spell, which is going to change a couple of things I've got to do with the end of the pass.
01:18:35
Speaker
But I've got his fucking genius and what a good spell to cast and what a great way to play that combat, guys. Awesome. Great spell. Awesome work. And we have a Christmas tree. So, you know, Folly will be getting KO'd the next. I think there's going to be a dragon fist coming on Folly's nose. Lucian's already building a gnome sized coffin.
01:19:00
Speaker
for you there. And speaking of coffins. Yeah. I don't know where I can take that one, but I was going to go with if you wanted to tune in next week for Folly's Broken Nose. Please do so.
01:19:16
Speaker
Thank you for tuning in this week though and witnessing the great act of Helena just fucking laying waste to the race waifs. Oh God, that was hard. And Robin had a good run on them too. Yes, indeed. And Claude for breaking the game. Yeah.
01:19:38
Speaker

If you wanted to just join in for some mad bands and lols, you can do so on our Twitter page, which is at fellowship table.
