Host Introductions and Episode Overview
00:01:10
Speaker
Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of Eberron Renewed, an actual play tabletop RPG game set in the Eberron campaign setting. I am Jeff.
00:01:21
Speaker
I'm Randy. I'm Trevor. And I'm Eric. And as you may have noticed, and apparently Trevor may not have, Philip is not here. I was like, I'm third. I know. Unfortunately, Philip can't make it to this recording. We are doing a review. So any questions you had about Eris that only Philip could answer, he will try to tackle on the Discord or maybe pick them up in the next review episode, but we will make sure they do get answered.
00:01:51
Speaker
So this is an interesting review because we did do a mid-arc review. The quick recap of that is simply that we found out there's a guy who calls himself the Carrion, and we went to find out more information about him, got into a fight, and now we are beginning this arc recovering from that fight. So we did get the information we wanted. At least we got physically the information, but we don't know how to read it yet.
Character and NPC Discussions
00:02:17
Speaker
So we go to Eric's favorite new NPC, Marist Pebblefist. Yeah, you're not doing. Oh, gross. To get fixed up. I love Marist. Marist is probably one of my favorites. No, Marist is hilarious. The only thing when he said silence is tacit consent. I was like, that sucks.
00:02:38
Speaker
Understand for a for a first responder that is actually like it's not that silence his consent. It's that inability to consent does not preclude Trying to save their life. Yeah, but but yeah, so he gets us fixed up and there's not much more Milo gets Healed and one of his crits fixed. Is that right? Yeah The hand is still messed up even now
00:03:04
Speaker
But then we do, we have a long talk and you know, it is unfortunate that Phillips not here because Eris is often the driving force behind the what are we really doing here conversations.
Moral Implications and Strategic Decisions
00:03:14
Speaker
But yeah, we have a long talk about
00:03:18
Speaker
If this is who we want to be, if this is who we want to work for, exactly how trapped are we in this situation? It doesn't matter how much we want to do it. It was good. It took the rest of the episode, essentially, that and then deciding what we were going to do next between going and talking with Coram, who runs the organization, or at the time we thought runs the organization that made this contraption that the Carrion uses.
00:03:44
Speaker
But we ended up going to the Delvers, uh, deciding to go to the Delvers. And that's how the next episode begins. Um, I'll be really honest. I don't remember what information we were hoping to glean from the Delvers right now. I just wrote down. Delvers was the next step. What was it we were trying to find out guys?
Unplanned Fight and Conflict with Boromar Family
00:04:03
Speaker
Oh, go ahead. No, I was just, I mean, no, we were trying to get, is that where we fought the bug? The bugs came out. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I.
00:04:14
Speaker
I know we were just trying to gather more info. I don't know if there was anything specific we were trying to glean. Yeah. I know. I mean, we, we went there because the leader of the Delvers does not like the Boromar family. And we thought in that there would be a reciprocity of, of, of keeping our mouth shut about anything we had to ask. Yeah. And I think also you flipped a story point of world advantage or something to establish that like Grum had taught to hob at one point that lady Briar
00:04:42
Speaker
uh brokers information like she she does that kind of thing and that's what kind of led you all down there okay yeah that that does ring a bell uh so we go down we have the bug fight uh we don't have the bug fight we see the void the bugs might be in and heiress decides to piss them off y'all that the bug fight was not anywhere in my notes like that was not it was just you all kept poking the the beehive and so i was like well i guess they're gonna
00:05:11
Speaker
It was the bees are gonna come out eventually. Well, it was the result of a despair like Eris drops the air and we saw the skittering and then we all Left it be but boy sure was there to pull out when you needed to and the despair happened in a social conference or social interaction and
00:05:30
Speaker
And next thing I know, so
Encounter with Solomon Callaway
00:05:34
Speaker
I want to explain the reckless way with which Hobb took on this fight. I took a talent right before this session because all of Hobb's
00:05:47
Speaker
all of Hobb's build is based on using advantage and using strain, using advantage after a move and using strain to buff a move beforehand. So I took a talent, and I didn't tell Eric that I took the talent just to see how it played out the first time. I took a talent that I would regain strain every time Eric flipped a story point. Now you guys listen to this podcast, you know Eric likes to flip some story points.
00:06:14
Speaker
So I thought this is fine. I'll really load on the front and load the strain here, finish this fight, and we'll all move on. Eric proceeded to not flip a story point for the remainder of this episode, if not also most of the next one. And I just ended up, well, and the 26th strain or whatever I took at the end of the thing because of his, was a legendary reaction essentially is the analogous term.
00:06:35
Speaker
It's just, it's a property of the thing. Like when it takes damage, that happens. So it's hard to codify. What it was, was it took damage and it released a poison that gave me, inflicted strain upon me to the tune of half of the wounds I gave them, which dropped me down to zero. And when you are at zero strain, you are unable to do anything. You are fully incapacitated. And that is what Hobb was for a long time.
00:07:04
Speaker
But I didn't see that coming. And then there was a ton of information. I'm gonna shoot straight. When we first did this, I tried to... How do I say this? I tried to figure out how much of the information Hob could remember if he was barely awake. And it was a really difficult process to try to broker that with myself. But the most... I don't know. I guess the most important information is we just got to learn more about
00:07:34
Speaker
A little bit more about the carry-in, a considerable more amount about Coram, right? And that's why we decided that's where we needed to go next. Yeah.
Discord Q&A and Information Trading
00:07:42
Speaker
Hey, real quick break in the action here. Eric just took a moment to remind me that the review that we did in the middle of this arc was actually his solo Q&A. So we're going to go back at the end of this and go through the Discord and any questions you had for us from those first few episodes, we will make sure to hit. But as far as going back and recapping, we're just going to keep going with where we're at.
00:07:58
Speaker
Hope that's okay, everybody, because we can't change it now. So, we do go talk to Coram, and we're trying to be slick with Coram, I guess. We're trying to be, by the way, how do you spell that, Eric? Just so I can make sure I'm pronouncing it correctly from now on. How did you spell it? C-O-R-U-U-M, I believe. Okay, I was just making sure that second syllable was there, and I just wasn't mishearing things, but there's two vowels, so it's definitely there. Coram.
00:08:29
Speaker
And we try to be diplomatic, we try to be, you know, smart about it, you know, industry secrets and we can't reveal this and you can't reveal that and all this crap, but then it all just falls to pieces when Solomon Callaway himself walks in. Dude, you do despair. Yes, dude, you do despair, yes. Now, was that, was that on the fly or was Coram always working for Solomon? That was always established, him walking through the door. Yes, sure.
00:08:59
Speaker
It being off on the fly is like the wrong word, but it, cause it was in my notes of if despair, this happens, but him walking in was not a planned part of the session. Right now. So I guess what I mean is on the fly is you, the, the Solomon is actually overall, this organization was always a part of your, your backstory for it. Okay. That's what I want to know for sure. Um, very cool.
00:09:24
Speaker
And then I'm still wrestling with one of the things that we did in the Solomon doc when we just decided to go ahead and tell him about Jason. So he has an information trade.
Moral Debate and Scam Encounter
00:09:34
Speaker
That was huge. What were we thinking? Whose idea was that? It was probably mine. I'm dumb. But what in the world? Yeah, I think it was I think it was Hobb that that proffered the information. And honestly,
00:09:47
Speaker
I was debating, I was having this inner war, like, should I tell you about Jason? Should I not? Should I? And then I think Hob went with it, and I was like, well, that eased my burden. We must have done a little bit of discussing of it that got cut, because there's just, I can't, I don't know why I would have, I mean, I do know why I would have done that. I was playing a little fast and loose this session. No, we did not talk about whether to do it or not. It just happened in the flow.
00:10:18
Speaker
I am not normally the one that drops the bombs. I normally leave those things to Phillip and Randy more often than anybody else. Yeah, I was a little surprised. I was like, oh, well, there we go. But I guess I did do that. And it opened up. I mean, it opened up the channels that we needed. I didn't know if that was enough, if that was the role or what have you. The question is, is it going to come back and bite us somehow, some way?
00:10:46
Speaker
Mm hmm. Oh yeah. We are talking about Eric. So. It absolutely is. It's going to do that. Or maybe somehow it could be a benefit. Yeah. We'll see. It depends on what your all's intention is with the Boromar, I guess. Like it's. Which is something else we need to discuss as a group. Yeah. Cause it's not sounding good for the Boromars right now. At least the way he's painting his picture. Yeah.
00:11:17
Speaker
But it does, it opens the channels we need. Solomon is willing to give us a meeting with the carrion. He makes it pretty clear that he's able to just reach out to him and set one up, no big deal. On top of a building, we agree to it, and then we continue to have the conversation about what in the world are we going to do about this guy.
00:11:44
Speaker
I don't know about you guys. You can tell me killing him or delivering him to Viggo.
00:11:50
Speaker
as much as Hob might have seen conflicted, Jeff was never gonna let Hob do that, I don't think. And again, without extenuating circumstances of, oh, he's really, really evil, or, oh, he's trying to kill us and we have to kill him kind of stuff. But just like the four of us overpowering him and delivering him to Vigo. I don't think Hob was ever gonna do that. Do you think? No, I don't think Milo would have been on board with that. I think it was Milo was waiting to see who this guy was, how he was gonna react.
00:12:17
Speaker
Mm-hmm, you know if he if he was gonna beat somebody we had to take out or not Yeah, Milo and air has definitely made it much clearer than hob or Raynard about where they stood on it Where did Raynard was Raynard just like whatever that's what we're getting paid to do. Let's do it Yeah, yeah I'll make the rain arts back the final shot if I need to but
00:12:41
Speaker
Yeah, it's one of those, it's one of those, like, Raynard has been conditioned to not have an issue with, like, would you say that, like, I don't want to say it's an amoral decision for him, but, but honestly, it might be like, does he consider the morality of that at all? I mean, he looked at a guy and told him he was told he was disposable. So there you go. That's fair. Um,
00:13:10
Speaker
But we do. But he's done some growing. Maybe maybe he's thinking a little more. Well, is there a line for Raynard, though? Like, is there a line of somebody that Vigo could say, hey, go, go whack this person? And Raynard would pause because obviously Al Sois is like weapons smuggling and like stealing drug shipments. And so he's pretty well established in like the criminal underworld. So is there my thought would be like if
00:13:41
Speaker
If it's part of the job, there's not a line. Okay. But like, if, like say during the job, it was like, Hey, if you don't do this, I'm going to kill this little girl. It's like, well, I don't want that to happen. Okay. Like, or like, if, you know, I mean, there, there, there's,
00:14:07
Speaker
There is a line, but- Yeah, what if like, for reasons outside of understanding you were told you had to take out Ulfin? Would you just be like, yep, all right. Oh gosh. Or your cop friend whose name is fully escaped me right now. Verla. Verla. Verla. Verla. I don't even know her name, it's fine. Yeah, she's disposable. Jeez. I think in that situation, as
00:14:35
Speaker
As crappy as it sounds, it would probably be like, what, what is like, what am I getting out of it to make it worth it? Yeah. So.
00:14:51
Speaker
Yeah, sure. If that's what you say, you are the Raynard controller, so... Just kidding. Yeah, that... I mean, it makes sense. Again, his background lends itself to that more than the rest of us, so... I mean, he'd definitely feel bad about it. He probably wouldn't tell the other guys he did it. Yeah. He's like, I had the hardest time killing Ulfen. You what?
00:15:15
Speaker
um nothing okay i like i like to think a little say what Randy well that's i was just getting back to what's his name ass ass swa
00:15:33
Speaker
Sorry, I thought when I said that, that doesn't sound right at all. I think that's something you do at the doctor. I mean, he did have a character named Arsal last campaign. So true. I mean, I did not think about that. I hope we gave him something to reflect upon, like to maybe get out of, especially because Milo and me were thinking the whole time. I mean,
00:16:02
Speaker
Salman just basically gave him up to us. We've actually got a couple more steps before we get there. Oh, okay. But yeah, I definitely want to talk about that because you're right. And you said some as such or as much in the in the
Visit to the Cracked Mirror
00:16:16
Speaker
episode too. So I do want to talk to you about that. But what's important is that Salman didn't set up a meeting. Salman lied to Al Sua and said, I have another shipment. Go pick it up.
00:16:25
Speaker
and told you all that, like I'll let him know that there's a new shipment and you all can do what you will. Yeah. To the point that we even brought a box full of crap to keep the illusion up right until he got close enough to us to talk to him. So yeah, you're right. He was betrayed. Well, he, I wonder if Solomon knew that, like, I would not put it past Solomon to be crafty enough to know that this group of guys ain't going to just turn him over to Vigo, you know?
00:16:52
Speaker
I don't know. It's either, and I'm not going to indicate one way or the other, it's either Solomon read you all and knew that you all were wanting to talk and not do anything aggressive or Solomon thought, okay, if
00:17:10
Speaker
he can't handle himself in front of these four people, then why would I bother hiring him on retainer? So if they do attack him and he survives, great, that's a good investment. If he doesn't, save myself some money. Did you use any mechanism besides just dealer's choice to make that decision? Did you roll behind the table or anything like that?
00:17:33
Speaker
No, that was a purely role play moment. I feel like I have a pretty good grasp on Solomon and like his mindset and his thought process. And so I generally can can role play him pretty accurately. Sure, of course. But we do decide to to go in and meet him. We have time to kill. We don't. We're just so like
00:17:56
Speaker
Whenever Eric says, okay, you guys have time to prepare, we all go, I think we're just gonna fight or talk, so let's go get something to eat.
Interrogation of Al Sua and Meeting with Vigo
00:18:04
Speaker
There have been times when we have done real preparation, but this one was just like, I mean, prepare how? We'll just chill until it's time, I guess, that's all we can do. So, we go down, and we see our old friend Ace, the world's worst thief, just running just a dastardly scam.
00:18:24
Speaker
where he pretends to be blind and wearing religious vestments, not necessarily portraying himself as a priest or a monk or anything, but playing on a religion and a disability to make money. And you said, when we look down, he is cleaning up doing this. Yeah, he's quite successful at it. Mm-hmm. And
00:18:51
Speaker
But we realize who it is, and we're pretty sure he's faking, and he does admit that he's faking, and it just, you know, this was the beginning of some silliness of this whole episode. This whole Ace and Cracked Mirror episode was silly.
00:19:05
Speaker
Why did you decide to, was that just something to do to eat some time and do something silly and fun? Did we miss something there? No, no, no, you did not miss anything. So I've been reading a lot this year, a lot of different fiction books that people have recommended. And when I was planning this campaign and kind of gave the elevator pitch to Chris Witt, who has GM'd one of our interludes here on the podcast,
00:19:31
Speaker
He said, dude, you have to read Lies of Locke Lamora, because that is just the tone that you're going for. Yes, yes. Naturally, I didn't until now. And I read it earlier this month, well, last month when this is getting dropped. And that is a hustle that they pull in that book is they wear religious garb and
00:19:58
Speaker
pretend to be priests collecting for the church and their leader pretends to be blind.
00:20:04
Speaker
I read that and in my notebook in real big letters it's ace blind priest question mark and so it was just like ace was down there until the next time you all went to Lower Dura and you all went to Lower Dura and I was like okay so there's a chance they'll see ace and I had you all make a perception check to see if anybody saw him so yeah that's behind the curtain where that whole thing came from is I saw that hustle in the book and was like
00:20:29
Speaker
that would be something that Ace would pull. Like that would be like Ace can't make it as a cat burglar. So let's do this. So I, uh, you say that book name. I'm almost positive. Somebody in our discord meant recommended that book to me forever ago. And I think I have it in like my audible, like I, I own it and have yet to actually start listening to it. It's like, yeah, it's really good. I read it when it like first came out, I think.
00:20:57
Speaker
If one of the aspects of our podcast that draws you in is the family friendly nature of it, then do not read that book because it is not that way. So yeah. All right.
00:21:09
Speaker
We try to convince Ace to go straight. I don't think he's going to. It just seems like he's too confident.
Episode Reflection and Future Teasers
00:21:16
Speaker
He's too certain that he is going to be the greatest criminal Sharon has ever seen, it seems. And you might be convinced he's already the greatest criminal Sharon has ever seen based on some of the things that he says.
00:21:30
Speaker
Wildest thing for me was Philip having Aeris suggest he spends more time around us by getting a job at Olefins. That, I did not see that. Not in a bajillion years what I have guessed. And that's, I wish Philip was here to speak to that because that was wild. Yeah. Yeah. But yeah, he says he's going to, he says he's going to try going straight. Eric plays dejected underling really, um, really, uh,
00:21:58
Speaker
It makes me sad sometimes. The word pathetic is definition wise accurate but contextually or connotationally wrong. Does that make sense? You have a lot of pathos with those characters that makes me feel for them and that's dumb. Thank you. It is a backhanded compliment. It's what I'm best at.
Q&A Session and Light-hearted Discussion
00:22:26
Speaker
We leave Ace, we go find someplace to eat. This place called the Cracked Mirror. And you said the Cracked Mirror is a canonical Eberron. Is what you have happened at the Cracked Mirror canonical? Kind of. Oh yeah? There is, yeah, it is run by changelings and it does talk about, here, I'm gonna pull up the... Yeah, that's what I was talking about was the org chart. Yeah, well, so yeah, here, I'll just read. This is from Charne City of Towers, the source book.
00:22:56
Speaker
The owners and staff of the crack mirror appear to change on a weekly basis. One week the innkeeper is a cheerful male dwarf named Mor Gabb. The next week she's a surly female half-orc named Taraka. In fact the staff consists of two doppelgangers and six changelings. These eight take turns playing various roles at the end and performing work for tyrants. They enjoy creating elaborate dramas with these roles and each trip to the crack mirror should involve colorful new personalities. So I turned it into more of an attraction than a game of the staff because you could take that entry in like
00:23:25
Speaker
have it be an inside joke with the staff that they like mess with clientele but I thought it would be more fun if it was like if it was like silver dollar city like it's just you come in for a meal and then all of a sudden bye to our nation what's going on and so yeah um
00:23:42
Speaker
Yeah. I thought it was fun. It was fun. No, it was great. And figuring it out, like, I mean, you didn't, you didn't make it difficult. But like the second time it happened, we were like, okay. It was very fun. Yeah. And getting to play around with how each would react to something like that and Hob realizing he does in fact love white entertainment. I'm actually next
00:24:07
Speaker
Let's see. No, sorry. Nevermind. I'm going down to Grapevine, Texas, where there's a Rainforest Cafe. The only time I've ever eaten at a Rainforest Cafe was in Grapevine, Texas. And this gave me big Rainforest Cafe vibes. Because like every 30 minutes, the lightning flashes and the, I don't know, the snake sings a song or something stupid.
00:24:26
Speaker
Um, but that was a very fun distraction and we all got to be silly for a while. Uh, and then we got to be serious for a longer while because we did the thing. We met actually in El Suan and we do, I mean, basically we do what we said we were going to do. We try to tell them, Hey, listen,
00:24:41
Speaker
We don't want to do this, but you're in a bad way now with the Boromars. We try to talk, you know, can you leave town? No. Well, can you lay low? Yes. And then Hob does his, I pull my little thing. I'm like, if you don't lay low, I'm coming after you. And we win that role because I used my brawl for coercion and you know, but yeah, so.
00:25:05
Speaker
And we decide, and yeah, he lays it out pretty clearly. He's like, yeah, Boromar told me to steal this, and then Das told me they'd give me more money to give it to them, and that's my motivation. I'm a criminal who's out to make money, and clearly I don't care who I cross doing it. I've crossed everybody, or have tried to, so it's pretty straightforward.
00:25:26
Speaker
How do I say this? He is a criminal, but he does not have anything more nefarious than personal gain. Like he's not trying to get the world hooked on Dragon's Blood or whatever. Now Dask might be, but there's still some, there's something nefarious there, or Boromar might have been, which is a big deal, but. Well, no, they were, the shipment was absentia, not Dragon's Blood. It's absentia, so I'll be right.
00:25:57
Speaker
Um, but, uh, you're right. Just the same. A drug, a different drug. I understand. Um, I better know that's not the word. Uh, I mean, it, it is a less addictive drug, less destructive. Um, which, I mean, those, those, those hierarchies exist in the real world, so they can exist in everyone. Uh,
00:26:22
Speaker
So we end up coming to the decision as a group that we're gonna go back to Vigo and we're just gonna say, hey, listen, we found out he's working with Solomon. And the last time we saw interaction with Solomon, it didn't go well. So we wanted to come to you before we did anything. And man, I will tell you what.
00:26:41
Speaker
I did not pick up on the drunk stuff when we went to talk to vegan. Oh, hang on. I'm so sorry. Randy, you had a lot to say about El Swah with that meeting and what you wanted to talk to him about. So I almost just blew right past it, even though I told you to wait like the real jerk. So please.
00:26:56
Speaker
Um, it's all right. Um, I think we kind of got the point across. I mean, it was just, he seemed like he was hemming and hawing about whether he was gonna, you know, go into hiding for a little while or whatever. And Milo is just like, you know, something you need to think about his, I mean, it was essentially set up. I mean, Solomon just basically gave him over to us.
00:27:23
Speaker
And so do you really want to work for that guy? That's the point. I think Milo was trying to get across. Do you know, are you sure about what you're doing? I mean, cause that's what basically said, I got a real good gig with Solomon Callaway right now. Exactly. Like, are you sure it's that good of a gig? Right. So, and based on his response, I thought like, at least the way Eric played it to me,
Closing Remarks and Listener Thanks
00:27:50
Speaker
it made me think like,
00:27:51
Speaker
Oh, something I should think about. Yeah. Right. Yeah. He didn't seem to, at least not in front of us. I mean, I kind of got that impression like he was like, oh, huh. Something to chew on. He definitely clearly realized that he had some reconsidering to do. I think that's true. Because, oh, go ahead. Well, I think that was part of the reason that we were able to be like,
00:28:21
Speaker
just go away for a minute. Just hide for a couple of days. Let me figure out how we can get out of having to deal with you. But an important distinction of what he said was he hadn't accepted the offer from Salman yet. Salman had made an offer to have him on retainer, but he wasn't working for Salman Callaway yet because kind of foreshadowing the end of the arc
00:28:46
Speaker
Solomon Calloway had a guy that could fly around the city and intimidate people and he's gone missing. So, Solomon needs to fill that hole. So, yeah. Yeah, the classic power vacuum. Okay, so yes, we do decide that what we're going to do is we're going to tell Vigo this this wrinkle came up, we decided not to go through with it until we heard from you because we felt like this was a big deal.
00:29:11
Speaker
So we go meet Viggo, he's playing cards, Jason's there, we do dumb stuff. Not we, I do dumb things to get their attention. I do love, I love that Viggo, I love that Eric plays Viggo as intentionally ob, not obtuse, and just not getting it sometimes. Just in the effort to say something jerky. Like when I was like, do we go into this here? And he's like, I don't wanna do it at all. I was like, okay, let me try again.
00:29:37
Speaker
This is happening. Is this the physical location where you'd like for it to happen? Just, he goes such a chump. And we tell him what we found out. And he was so nonchalant. Like, just go do the job.
00:29:57
Speaker
Randy how quickly did you figure out that that Eric was playing drunk because this is again. I want to say this is not This is mean it. I'm not saying anything about air performance. I'm saying about my being dense like at first I Didn't dawn on me, but I mean pretty soon. I got the feeling like okay he may be a little too drunk and I I debated do I
00:30:25
Speaker
Because I almost did it, and about the time I finally decided to say, you know, Hob, I think he's a little too drunk, and that's when
00:30:35
Speaker
Jeff started like oh, man Yeah, I think I think I tried I tried to have hob say something before I did I said something the effect of like do you want to do this another time and Then I explained I just not realized you're drunk and I feel like and I and I felt like Eric was like slowly creeping up to try to make it more and more obvious as we went and
00:31:03
Speaker
I guess I just, I don't put anything beneath Viggo that it makes as much sense to me that sober 100% wits about him, Viggo would be like, whatever, just kill him all, it's fine. That it was hard for me to differentiate. Well, and I will say, the reason that I wasn't playing him like fall over stupid drunk is because I like, in Vino Veritas and all that business, like, you know, Viggo wasn't like,
00:31:31
Speaker
impaired he was just he was he was out on the town like you you all interrupted him going out for uh party time and so yeah importantly he wasn't going to regardless if it was drunkenness or a desire to not bummer out his evening he wasn't going to give this the necessary consideration that he should have yeah and i didn't realize that until it was too late
00:31:57
Speaker
He's off the clock, man. Yeah. Well, and thankfully, Eric was cool enough as the GM to, when I made that, let's discuss this another time, Eric said, that makes sense to Viggo. He knows that he's a little drunk or however, you thought about it in your head, but, cause yeah, otherwise we would have been like, I guess we have to kill Solomon Callaway though? I don't know. But, um,
00:32:25
Speaker
And that's it. That's I mean, that's where the arc ends. We end with with that little conversation with you. What am I missing? What am I? Oh, God. OK, fine. Go. No, you're fully right. That is that is. You have a helmet in a box, not a head in a helmet. OK, well, it's kind of the same thing.
00:32:48
Speaker
No, I got I got the the helmet of the group. Well, we're not calling the green goblin, I guess, but. No, you have to be doing this. Norse and mill hatch. You keep calling out my plagiarism. I will contact my attorney, Trevor. No, no. Hatch is legally distinct, Trevor. Fine. We got Norse's helmet, which would
00:33:18
Speaker
Um, imply that we got Norse and Milhatch. And there was a note attached to the helmet. Yeah. Which, which, which said, Oh, I don't know. I think it was like payment acquired home tomorrow evening. Oh yeah. Yeah. I was like, I know it made me uncomfortable. I don't remember. Because, because Trevor or Raynard rather.
00:33:46
Speaker
for services rendered, had one request, and one request only. And that was Norse and Millhatch, so... Wild that Arthur learned how to write. So, I mean... Yeah, I should've waited. I should've waited till I got the cat. Then I could've got Norse and Millhatch easily. So, I mean, did that... throw a kink into anything? Disposing of Norse and Millhatch?
00:34:10
Speaker
Oh, oh, yeah, I mean, yeah. Like, well, Callaway is hiring Axery and Al sua for one. Yeah. Remember, remember the thing about the power vacuum? Yeah. No, I'm like, I was just sitting there thinking like how big of a. There will be more. It's going to cancel lunch. There will be more elements that become apparent at the top of our next recording session, because there are yeah, I mean, this
00:34:40
Speaker
Norsen Millhatch is a huge player in the Sharn underworld and the Sharn scientific community. Like you all interact with him in his like dirty dealings, but he's also like a high-level consultant for House Caneth and like works with Morgrave University professors. And so yeah, him disappearing is not a small thing. Which is great. Yeah, I just thought everyone just point that out.
00:35:10
Speaker
Like that's a big deal. Did I tell the group that I had a hit out on them? I don't think you did. Good. That was a one on one conversation between you and Basil. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That'll be a fun conversation before sales. Yeah.
00:35:26
Speaker
while Ace is wiping down tables. He's a dishwasher. He's not allowed front of house yet. He's got to earn that. But yeah. Let me say, let me, dishwasher, probably the hardest job, one of the hardest jobs in the restaurant, but his customer service skills, he can't be front of house yet. Yeah, he'll be trying to pick pocket customers. We can't have that.
00:35:50
Speaker
Before we get into questions though, there were two pretty, so I guess, did you all just not feel like there was anything to be gained by going to the Umber Club and Spider? Because those were two other like big locations that were a part of this arc that just didn't even get touched. That's kind of the feeling I got from the other players was like, we don't have anything to gain, so we kind of got what we got.
00:36:17
Speaker
I think there was a real world brevity concern with that. I would have loved to have seen either one of those places. I hope we get a chance to down the road. Remind me, the upper club is the one with the dragon blood and the spider is the other one. Or I got him reversed. The gambling hall, yeah. Yeah, okay. The spider's gambling hall. Yeah, I mean, I hope we get a chance to check those places out. They sound really fun to check out and meet the denizens of, but
00:36:45
Speaker
I mean, frankly, we had the information. We found a plan that worked. And, you know, once it gets to episode six or seven of an arc, you go, OK, let's. Yeah, I mean, just to pull the curtain back, like basically those two served as information, not dumps, that's the wrong word, but sources of information on Axre and Al Sua, as opposed to the Carrion, because you obviously went to Lady Briar and found out who the Carrion was.
00:37:14
Speaker
and what her information about the carrion was. But then, yeah, that's all you really knew going into your meeting. You didn't know a whole lot about Axrion, the person going in. So that's where that information lies. Just in case anybody was wondering what would have been. Yeah. No, that's great.
00:37:35
Speaker
Still I maintain I'd love to see those places in in the world in in play at some point But well, okay, so so leopard asks she says she says is lady brighter like a paladin or something? And if so, what religion how does she know all this stuff? Like it's really serious spycraft How does she get that info if she's down in the cogs?
00:37:55
Speaker
So to answer the first question, yes, she is. If you were to convert her into D&D terms, she would be a little bit Oath of the Ancients paladin and a little bit warlock. That's kind of the mix of who she is.
00:38:12
Speaker
uh, from like a power set. Um, so yeah, that's, uh, so the religion belief system, um, it's, it's nate natural. It's nature-based, um, being, uh, being an elf. Uh, so she doesn't have like a codified God. It's not the sovereign host or the silver flame or anything. It's more just to believe in the natural order of things is where her power comes from. So.
00:38:38
Speaker
Okay. And then she, as a warlock, obviously has a warlock patron, but not going to get into that because spoilers. So, yeah. Great. Flame asks if we could share the game. Oh, sorry. Go ahead. Second question about how she knows the stuff. Oh yeah, sure, of course.
00:38:57
Speaker
Regarding how she knows that stuff, uh, she's an information broker. She knows people and she can, I mean, she, a lot of her information as I tried to make clear is documents and documentation and records. And so rather than, um, you know, rather than going and like sitting on park benches and overhearing conversations and like kind of the spy movie stuff, it's just, you know, when you have a wealth of information,
00:39:25
Speaker
And you're intelligent enough to start connecting those dots. You can start putting pieces together that the average person wouldn't be able to see because they A, don't have all the information you have or B, don't have the level of intelligence that you have. And she has a second set of eyes in the form of bull, her a rainy spirit locked in a bust that you all briefly interacted with.
00:39:50
Speaker
um, that can quickly go through all that documentation. And so, yeah, it's just, it's having, it's having so much information, a quick way to access it and the way to put things together. Um, so yeah, I mean, the, the example would be, you know, how, how do you know that the carrion is actually an Al sua and you look at like purchases made by the carrion purchases made by accurate actually now sua, being able to put those patterns together and things like that. So that's.
00:40:18
Speaker
that's kind of what uh how she does what she does but as we learned it's not a perfect system because you all got some pretty big false information about uh who Axtrin Aswa is because going into the meeting you all thought he was an Asamar former paladin of the silver flame which was not the case he was a Valinar elf that was formerly a uh a prisoner of war by the goblins of Dargun so
00:40:45
Speaker
Oh right, Aerys and he had the similarly styled tattoos. Moving forward, Flame asks if we could share the gang's character sheets. They're interested in what talents we've picked up and also how large Raynard's XP stash is. I'll say this.
00:41:11
Speaker
I will say this I was going to just for the sake of putting something on this gonna run down some of Hobbs talents, but
00:41:21
Speaker
RPGSessions, which I don't think we mention this often, RPGSessions.com is the website that we use both to play when we're playing remotely, it's got a dice roller and things like Initiative Tracker, but it's also where we maintain our character sheets. It's really good for if you're playing Genesis or Fantasy Flight. You know, one of the things that I did was I took like three and I'll probably take another tier of Tuffin just to raise my wounds, because I was getting the snot kicked out of me in every combat.
00:41:47
Speaker
I will put mine, I assume the other guys will too. I'll put mine in the Discord, just do some screenshotting of my talent tree at least, so you guys can see that.
00:42:00
Speaker
I try to name my talents as I use them, so people have kind of an idea of what's what when they're listening. I know Philip likes to be a little bit more narrative and just say what happens, which is also super dope, just kind of. But yes, I'll put mine out there for you, Flame, so you can see it. Again, half my talents are things like,
00:42:21
Speaker
Loom, where I buff other people, or just getting more wounds, or doubling advantage, things like that. Just trying to build a tactical build, fighting build. Irene asked, what condiments does Eris have with her chicken fingers? And Philip actually answered this one on the Discord for us, so I'll share that for the listening audience.
00:42:41
Speaker
He says there's a super strong honey that he assumes is made with alcohol. It's a Dargul thing, so probably that. But there's also some good spicy barbecue sauces. Phillip says Aeris basically just likes things that are really, really sweet or really, really spicy. And that is what she dunks her chicken strips into, because that is what she got. Phillip also says that food doesn't come up very much in D&D, so it gets a little, just kind of the first thing that comes into your head when you ask that question, which is why Hobbie eats a lot of cabbage too.
00:43:10
Speaker
Alright, and we're gonna jump into the QA tier and okay, Becca would like to know what is our favorite fairytale or fable? Fairytale or fable? We'll just start with that one. Why not? Do a non-arc-related one up front. And I don't know if I have an answer to this. Yeah, I don't know that I have a favorite
00:43:32
Speaker
of either one of those. I will say, and I don't know if this falls in those categories or not, but I love the Sandman comic book. Yeah. The Neil Gaiman, and I really enjoyed the Fables comic. Oh, yeah, that's a good, good. Yeah, I like that comic, too. I did not like the video game, which is not my style of game. That's telltale style, but
00:44:01
Speaker
Yeah, I don't know. You know, another fairy tale adaptation thing that I actually I enjoyed, even though it is qualitatively bad, was the the Grimm series that was on TV about the modern day, the modern day monster hunters. And like they would just really dark spins. Well, I mean, original fairy tales were dark in the first place. The Disney five ones are not. But yeah, that was fun. So I will say when I was a kid, Jack and the Beanstalk,
00:44:32
Speaker
Mm. Love Jack and the Beanstalk for whatever reason. I guess I just I have a fondness for the like original version of Cinderella because that was the first fairy tale I ever read to kind of like open up my eyes to the distinction between Disney and like the originals. So I guess that that always has a fond place in my heart because it was just like, oh, the the crows are doing what now?
00:44:57
Speaker
And they cut off their toes for Y. And so, yeah, it was just a wild ride, uh, growing up on Disney and then seeing that. So they probably like rumples still skin. Okay.
00:45:13
Speaker
I don't know why. That's just one that always, like, I liked when I was little. Yeah. I just, I keep thinking of adaptations that I like. There's a band called Groove Lily that has an album called Striking 12. It's a concept album about the little match girl and analogizing it to like a New Year's Eve celebration in the modern day. And I don't know, stuff like that. Greek mythology, which I know is neither fairytale nor fable necessarily, but I always grew up loving that stuff.
00:45:42
Speaker
Okay, Laura asks, is Hob going to get Aeris to mod his motorcycle? And then further asks, if you find Milo and Rainard vehicles, do you think you could turn this into a sweet drag racing team and there'd be no worry about assassination because it would all be about family? Laura has been freebasing the Fast and Furious movies the last couple of weeks. And I think that might have had something to do with this. But yes, Hob will absolutely, if
00:46:07
Speaker
Hob is not, I make jokes to the contrary, but I think I've said in real life pretty true to the Hob is not a materialistic or flashy person. He wants the motorcycle because of its utility, and if you can think of modifications that will make it work better or have more utility, but he's not gonna have her put big fenders or shoot flames out of the back or anything. If anything, he might try to see what he can do to make it less flashy.
00:46:36
Speaker
if it is flash, we've not really talked about it. Somebody draw an Eberron motorcycle, so I know what my motorcycle looks like. I mean, well, you know, how common are they? Yeah, I mean, it's going to probably stick out just because. I suppose, Eric, you might be able to answer that. They're not they're not terribly common, no, because they're extremely dangerous. But, you know, they're not it's it's one of those things where you see when you go, oh, they're riding
00:47:05
Speaker
Uh, one of those things, not what is that thing kind of, kind of, like it's, it's, it's noticeable when you see one, but it's not astonishing. It's like back, if anybody remembers the Plymouth Prowler, that vehicle, it's like when you saw one of those in the road, you're like, I know what that is. Cause I've seen the pictures, but it's still weird to see it in the wild. Uh, if you don't know Plymouth, Plymouth Prowler was looking up, it was a weird looking vehicle.
00:47:31
Speaker
Okay, was Gorm's Pirates Ghost inspired by the Flying Dutchman from SpongeBob? Because it fits perfectly and that's all I could picture. Eric, were you a SpongeBob guy?
00:47:42
Speaker
I'm gonna be honest, I've never seen an episode of SpongeBob. I'm gonna be honest, you're missing out. It's not a thinking I'm too good for it. I was just too old when it was originally airing, and I was never inspired to dive into it. I don't have children of my own, and I already have hard enough time watching the amount of television that I wanna watch, so yeah. Sure. So no, to answer your question, no. Yeah.
00:48:13
Speaker
I will say I have idea that I have. You know, I have watched a lot of Spongebob now between having kids and, you know, being in a relationship with somebody who was an animator. And they're like, this is seminal stuff you have to see. And she's not wrong. I didn't think of it in the moment. But yes, the Flying Dutchman from Spongebob is pretty a pretty good way to view Corned Pirate Coast.
00:48:37
Speaker
Alright, Eric, in the mini-reviewed, you mentioned cold opens being a scheduling thing. Are you still thinking about doing more solo ones because Sigils was fantastic? And I will chime in and say I agree that Sigils solo cold open was fantastic. Yeah, I'm not against doing them. Those are a lot harder to do than the ones because, you know, when it's me and one of the players, there's a lot of improv and back and forth and we kind of create it in the moment. But for Sigils,
00:48:59
Speaker
I had to sit down and write like a 12 minute monologue, which is not the easiest thing in the world to do. Uh, so I'm not against it, but those do take, uh, a bit more work than your average cold open. So yeah, but thank you. Good to know that, uh, at least one person, well, two people, uh, enjoyed my sigil cold open bit.
00:49:23
Speaker
And I will say, I would like to get back into doing more cold opens as well. I always thought they were a lot of fun. I mean, honestly, we've just, as we've gotten deeper and more complicated story, we've filled out the episodes more. It's kind of also what it comes down to. Like, we're not going to put a cold open on an episode that's already an hour and 10 minutes long. You're just not gonna.
00:49:46
Speaker
Well, and it's it's it's a thing where, you know, the cold opens were so great early in the campaign because they introduced us. I mean, Vigo, Verla, Jason, Olive, like all these characters were introduced in cold opens and a lot of them weren't even intended to be. Vigo was not intended to be a big player. He was just a crappy relative of your boss that you had to deal with.
00:50:12
Speaker
But now that, so we don't want to continue introducing a crap ton of characters this far into the story, because that's just going to continue to bloat things a bit. But at the same time, uh, we don't want to have significant story beats away from the table. Like you, you want all of the players there to be able to see it and respond to it. And, uh, so if we have like a huge moment regarding Milo and his history, that he finds something out in a cold open.
00:50:42
Speaker
Uh, it's, it's less impactful if it's just me and Randy doing it as opposed to being around the table in actual play. Um, so, so yeah, uh, that is another aspect of it. Uh, just that's worth touching on. Um, it might be worth looking into like, Oh, go ahead.
00:50:59
Speaker
In your right, there is a danger in a cold open of backing a character into a corner where the only true thing to do is something extremely impactful and it's not fair to do it when everyone else isn't around. I think that's kind of what you were saying as well, but from the player side, it feels the same way.
00:51:16
Speaker
It might be worth looking into like when we actually record like Doing the cold open like saying aside five minutes to do a cold open then just everybody else chill But you know that's something that we can discuss off microphone, but thank you for the input Laura Appreciate and then Laura has a question for Philip about Eris which Philip can take to the discord basically they ask if She's settling down with her running away. She seems to be more comfortable when now that she's
00:51:44
Speaker
in a space with Olive and very questioned. And lastly, Laura asks, and this dovetails nicely with Crow's first question, so I'll ask them both at once. First, Eric, Laura says, is Arthur...more than a cat? And then Crow asks, Raynard, how are you and Arthur getting along? So I don't know what order you guys want to answer that in. I mean, I will just state
00:52:09
Speaker
uh, out of the gate. I, I hope it's obvious that Arthur has more going on than your average cat, whether or not Arthur is more than a cat is a complicated question that I can't give a complicated answer to, but Arthur's got some stuff going on. That's, that's, that's what I'll say. Um, Arthur, I will say like, based on your interactions with the people, uh, quote unquote on screen, Arthur can't verbalize like Arthur's not just going to start talking to people like, Oh, good day, jolly boy.
00:52:39
Speaker
uh kind of thing but uh but clearly arthur has a bit more going on than your average cat is there a speak with animals equivalent in one of our divinity or one of our arcana trees i'm sure there is right you could figure something out yeah i hope so uh
00:52:58
Speaker
I haven't looked at anything except for divinity because that's what I can cast. So I mean, the relationship between Arthur and Raynard is it's Raynard just kind of used to us having a roommate now because Arthur just goes away and gets stuff. Yeah, comes back whenever he wants. So yeah, with stuff with stuff, the wildest.
00:53:22
Speaker
I mean, so does he kind of like having a little does he hang out with Raynard? Like does he will he jump up on a chair with Raynard or does he just go do his own thing? Oh, they definitely binge watch whatever the code of Netflix is together. That would be listening to the radio. Yeah, I mean that I will say, yeah, Arthur Arthur is a cat in the in regards to how he interacts with with Raynard. So when Raynard walks through the door, Arthur will like hop down and like shoulder
00:53:52
Speaker
Uh, into Reynard's knees and kind of do the figure eight through the legs and then go back to whatever he was doing. Like Arthur is a cat in that regard.
00:54:01
Speaker
but is an extraordinary cat in many other regards. It's just sometimes he brings home presents also that aren't dead birds. So yeah. Sometimes he also brings home dead birds. Crow continues with a question for Eris. They ask, what is your priority, making something for Milo's hand or making some wings? We'll let Philip take that one on the discord. They ask Hob, are you going to go with Eris to a play and or go back to the cracked mirror? Hob is almost certainly gonna end up back at the cracked mirror.
00:54:29
Speaker
At the very least, Hob knows that the next time he's down there, he's got a place to eat. He's like, oh yeah, when I'm down there, I make sure to check out the, what's happening with the cracked mirror. As far as a play.
00:54:44
Speaker
That's a long time for Hob to sit still that's not meditating. So we'll see. He's willing to give it a try, but with the caveat that she can't get mad if he gets up and leaves it at intermission. And it's like, that was plenty for me, thank you. Maybe I'll catch the second act another time, not knowing that's not really how it works. I mean, they'll sell you a ticket for the whole show and just let you watch one act, but it's not that easy. Crow continues, Milo, how's your mom doing?
00:55:15
Speaker
Mom is, I'll tell you what, she's doing really well. She's chipper. She on the weekends, she meets up with her little neighbor friends and they make food and they go take it to poor folk and street urchins and they feed them. You know, she, she leads a pretty active little life and she still loves to bake. Awesome.
00:55:45
Speaker
Oh, yeah, there's always there's always a baked good for Milo whenever he comes tooling in at whatever hour there. There'll be cookies or some kind of bread. I mean, there's always something for Milo to munch on when he gets home.
00:55:58
Speaker
Love it. Uh, my, just my RPG sessions just fired up. I think my VPN was acting up, but, uh, I did want to say the talent that I really thought was going to show Eric and then just completely kicked me in the butt was called zealous fire. Every time Eric flips a story point, I heal to strain and somehow I still managed to get fully incapacitated via strain dump. Uh, I mean, you took how many strain in one go though. I mean, that's, that's an extraordinary,
00:56:28
Speaker
Well, the trick of it is I took 13 straight in one go, but since the fight was ended, if somehow the combat had kept going, you probably would have flipped one or two points and I would have actually gotten back above zero. But since it also effectively ended the fight, it was like,
00:56:43
Speaker
nothing. Didn't you also have some kind of double your damage thing also like a flying uh your leaping attack? Yes the leaping attack cost two strain and the um yes yes I did the leaping attack and I did double for nothing so that was four strain right there and then the other 13 which put me at 17 and I have 15
00:57:05
Speaker
So if it had gone a couple more rounds, you'd flipped a couple story points, I would have at least ended the fight, not at zero. And then you got poisoned. And I just got, I just got, yeah, and I'll just, I don't know what to tell you. It was bad. It was a bad time. Eric, what's your favorite thing about playing Marist, other than torturing your players?
00:57:26
Speaker
So I saw this question and like thought about it for a while because I did really in the moment like love playing Maris and I kind of realized that you know long time fans of the show especially people that listen to campaign one know that as a dungeon master and a game master I am adept at causing my players misery and anytime I get to like
00:58:07
Speaker
It seemed to be a really enjoyable moment and a really funny, silly thing to do in the moment. So yeah, that's what I loved about playing Marist, and the voice is funny, the face is silly, and doing an actual- Oh, and Eric gets close to the camera when he says things as Marist? Yeah, right up on my mouth. Yeah, his head gets closer.
00:58:16
Speaker
bring a genuine sense of joy to the table through a character.
00:58:30
Speaker
Uh, well, and that's the thing, like when we're doing an actual play podcast, like we do, our game is shared with, with all of you. Um, but the visuals a lot of times get to be things just for us. And so like the visualization of Maris, like Phillip shared a picture on the discord, which is great. But that's also a fun thing is that Maris is like the way I look at the players that causes them to like laugh or freak out or something like that.
00:58:55
Speaker
is something that gets to be just for us around our table, and that's always a fun thing for me when we get to have those things. Yeah, I don't know how Eric does it, but when he plays Marist, his eyes double in size like that girl on the cover of the Eels album. No, that might be a reference for Zero People. I don't know if you'll remember the Eels album, Beautiful Freak, which is not a great album title, doesn't hold up. Anyway. How many things from the 90s do you hold up, though, Jeff? Fair enough.
00:59:25
Speaker
Yeah, I will say Eric, like Eric. The one thing that I can always know about Eric as a GM is he just he's never afraid to go there with something that could be really scary for the party, either because he trusts us or because he's like, well, I mean, if they don't figure it out, they'll figure it out after, like kind of thing. And so like just being that he says he says misery or danger or whatever to the party, it's

It's not Eric Eric just brings the stakes every every encounter we have and so yes, it is often a tension dump when he decides to throw a silly character like ace or Or Marist or a bunch from campaign one When born I would go on particularly silly tears like it really just like okay. Let's just settle into this for a minute
01:00:14
Speaker
Not even always new characters or situations. I mean, like, Vigo giving us this job to go bring this guy back who we know is going to be tortured and killed. I mean, that that to me, that was a misery. You know, why are you doing this, Eric? Well, and that's I mean, people can probably go back and do a pretty decent
01:00:41
Speaker
Plot chart of the jobs that you all have gotten from the start of the campaign from the clan and I've been trying to you know, just you know the the stakes and the ask just get a little bit higher and higher every time and I feel like this was like The threshold moment of like you are being explicitly asked to go deliver somebody for Nefarious means and if it looks like they're gonna get away just kill him and Yeah, so
01:01:11
Speaker
I'm glad that you all responded the way that I was hoping that you would respond with a, what, like, what, like, we don't do this. And it's like, well, now you do. Congratulations. You've been promoted. Uh, so yeah. Um, but, and I will say Maris pebble fist was a collaborative effort because without that name,
01:01:33
Speaker
I never would have characterized him the way that I ended up characterizing him. So you all came up with the name, and I just picked up what you all gave me, and there's only one way a person named Maris Pueblafisk can act, and that's how I played him. Unhinged. All right, well that is the last question that we have, and that last bit sounded way too much like being nice to Eric, so I'm ready to call it.
01:01:58
Speaker
Well, Crow did ask about our favorite dessert. Did you see that? Oh, you're right. I fully missed it. Okay. Favorite desserts, everybody. Tiramisu. Anything that's lemon flavored, I kind of like. Probably the best if I'm forced to pick. And fried pies are probably at the top of the list. How much time do we have? Time for you to pick one.
01:02:28
Speaker
I do love a key lime pie. Oh, yeah. That's good stuff. Mine's simple, but I love banana pudding. I like good cold banana pudding with some whipped cream and like Nilla wafers on there. Yeah. You know, Randy, I didn't come for you when you said you like fried pies for dessert after a meal.
01:02:53
Speaker
You know what would really help wash this down? A fried pie. That's right. That's a road trip food, baby. I just don't like bananas. That's my issue. I'm just not a banana guy. That's fair. I do like a lemon flavor dessert. Lemon bars are. Okay. Well, that's it. Thank you all for listening. Please check us out all the socials at the Geek Pantheon.
