Enchanted Objects and Hidden Keys
00:00:07
Speaker
18, you walk in and you see as you walk in this piano and in the piano, something's calling you to it. Oh, I was getting called to the piano too. Like literally before you even said that, I was like, I want to go play Heart and Soul in that piano. Well, Davita, you are being called
00:00:30
Speaker
Well, no, not even you not being called anywhere. You step in and immediately you feel like you trip over something.
00:00:38
Speaker
I tripped over something, or feel like I tripped over something. Yeah, you basically took a step and fumbled forward. And Lee, what did you roll again? Five. I rolled a five. You feel that the teapot that's in the middle of that tea table is calling to you. But I want you now all to roll... What's a...
00:01:01
Speaker
Let's say insight. Let's say roll insight to gain your footing. Or no, maybe a wisdom save. That's what it is. Wisdom save. Okay. Would you roll it? 12. 12. Okay. 14. 16. 14, 16. Dubita. Yes. You trip over something, tries to grab your attention, but you just carry on.
00:01:26
Speaker
Lee and Luke, you can't resist and you walk to these items or these objects. And you see Luke, the key, that's kind of in the bend of the piano where it lifts up. It's like along that little like lip area.
00:01:49
Speaker
and Lee like like the you think of piano playing area and then there's the thing that's tilted the the top to get the top of the piano it's a grand piano yeah and so it's that that area the
00:02:05
Speaker
And then, Lee, you see on this teapot, on the handle, a key that's molded against it. It's kind of poking out to be pulled. And you pull both of them. So, Luke, your key,
00:02:24
Speaker
brings you to the closest door, which is right next to the piano. And I will say you can roll another wisdom save for that. And Lee, yours takes you to the door to the corner. So you see, as you go to the middle of this house, where the tea table is with the teapot,
00:02:49
Speaker
and out actually on the keys so Luke yours looks like a football on the top or on the on the handle part and Lee yours looks like a card uh and your door is in between the two staircases that go up to different rooms now Davita you are watching this all happen but I want you both to roll another wisdom save if you want you can help them with this one now
Exploration and Mystical Discoveries
00:03:14
Speaker
Okay, I'll help then. Which one? Oh, I only have to pick. Yeah. Luke. So you can roll his advantage. Five and then 14. 18. 18. So Lee, you get it. You stand in front of this door and you kind of snap out of it. Luke.
00:03:37
Speaker
You put the key in the door, turn it, and walk in. Yeah, he just walked into his door. Luke. Yeah. Davida and Lee. So Lee, you can still, you have the key, you can go into the store. Oh, heck no. Davida, you can go back to whatever you tripped on to see what's there. Okay. Or you both can go to the observation deck. I want to go to the observation deck immediately.
00:04:06
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, I wanna look at what I tripped on and then go to the observation deck. Okay, Davida, so you go back to what you tripped on and it's like, it looks like a splinter has popped up off the wood on the floor, but it's like, it looks like a key. That's a- A key that looks like a wooden splinter? No, it looks actually like a broom. A broom? Yeah. The key looks like a broom.
00:04:34
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, so like the bristles area of a broom is on the part where you hold and then enter it and when you put it in a door, whatever, that is what's used to get into that door. Now I want you to roll another Wisdom save. Just because I'm close to it. Yep. I run away! You have to roll a Wisdom save first. 15. 15 just passes.
00:04:59
Speaker
Okay, and I leave that key on the ground and go back to Lee and tell him, do not hold onto that key any longer, you're gonna have to keep on resisting it. The spooky. I'm just amazed that you've still got so much will power, assuming you've got like the wrong wing around your neck, so I'm just saying it's all, this wrong key seems to be overpowering you more than that, just saying it's all wrong. Like, you're doing quite good for you, Mr. Frodo Baggins.
00:05:23
Speaker
You go to the observation deck, and it's like a separate staircase. It's like instead of the stairs that lead to doors, it's like it goes above that. And it's like this section where it's just a glass where you can see certain games that are in front of the glass. Okay. And so you walk up there and you look for Luke's game, I assume, or are you looking at everything? Well, looking at everything, but also we're trying to find Luke, I think. Yeah.
00:05:52
Speaker
Well, then I would roll. You can't do both, the GM says. You can do both, but I'm just saying for timewise, I need to know so I can give him that time. I will look for Luke's room. You look for Luke, and I'll look at all the games. Yeah, there we go. We'll multitask this. There you go.
00:06:11
Speaker
Mine is a general perception. Sure. And this is an investigation, right? Exactly. There you go. Now, Luke, while they're doing this, you have walked in and you are in a room.
Luke's Football Adventure
00:06:25
Speaker
No. A locker room. Okay. And you are choosing color of your outfit and your team. So, which one do you choose? Like, is the option geographical?
00:06:41
Speaker
The option is geographical, fictional, whatever you wish. There's a team that will be created for you. Yeah, I'd probably just randomly generate it. But unless there's one that distinctly sticks out. Roll a d20, roll a d20. Like Vannier, you know. Roll a d20.
00:07:01
Speaker
15 15 you get like a veneer sure folks beer yeah sure they they i mean this is all skins they're not like they're not going to be like these crazy athletes these
00:07:19
Speaker
So basically, you pick your outfit, and you enter the field, and you see a football stadium. And yeah, you are playing football, FIFA, by lack of terms. Now, Lee, what did you get in your investigation? 17. 17. You see Luke's character pop out in this game.
00:07:48
Speaker
Mm-hmm. Cool. I immediately look for a controller. Oh, that'd be interesting. Roll me investigation. What'd you roll up, Davida? 13. 13. You can tell people are playing games, but nothing too specific. I can't distinguish all the different games. No, not with 13. And your knowledge of games.
00:08:13
Speaker
Yeah, okay. Nine for me, Jess, so probably not. No. I want to be on the opposite team so I could make the goalie run out all the time so he could score all the goals. That would have been very interesting. I would approve. Now, Luke, you are now coherent. You have entered this field and you are realizing what's just happened. Do I still have my stuff on me?
00:08:42
Speaker
Yeah. Including the invisibility cloak. So the game whistle blows and the game sets off. We will do four roles, opposing roles obviously. I will roll against yours.
00:08:58
Speaker
Basically, 15 and above, I block, I steal. Okay? So, ball rolls. And I'm... So you start with the ball. Okay. And I don't add anything to a pick. Nothing. Not unless you use one of your abilities. Like, wouldn't this be dexterity based stuff? Yes and no. It's a video game you're playing right now.
00:09:24
Speaker
So you are not, you are your character, but you're not your character. So like, when you aren't you, you do generic. When you are you, you can do fancy things. If you do fancy things, you roll stats. We're in section though right now. We're playing a video game with the side of video. Yes. Cool? Okay. So first roll. A 10.
00:09:47
Speaker
Okay, let's say with 10 you can pass or you can move forward. I think yeah, I'd pass. I did not roll 15 or higher, so you do what you need. So you pass it, so you are no longer in possession of the ball. You are the only one on your team. Okay, next one. Just passing it two overs closer. Sure. Yeah, not one.
00:10:11
Speaker
So you, then, your character tries to pass it forward and one of the NPCs picks it up. And I was going to say it's Looney Tunes, sadly. But that's a bit harsh. You know what? It's the Monstars of the space jam. Brunching out in other sports now, eh?
00:10:38
Speaker
But no, no, they're playing football instead. They're not bouncing the ball. And so the tall guy gets it. And so now it switches. If you are playing you again, you can do fancy things. You roll with your stats, skills, whatever. If you're just doing a generic block,
00:10:56
Speaker
whatever, then just roll a T20. If you get 15 or higher, you block it. If you get a natural 20, you steal it unless I roll low. Okay. Okay. That was horrible. But what did you get? 11. So you should be fine.
00:11:15
Speaker
Yeah, so I move forward just one, right? So that's the third one. Oh, so just an hour on the last one. Wait, whoever has it at the. We're doing per, so this is like time. This is basically time. Oh, okay. Sure. This is just to speed it up because we're not going to play. Sure. Okay. What'd you get? Nineteen.
00:11:34
Speaker
19, me too! So we'll say you block it. I pass, you block, but you don't take it. You block it, it just goes to one of my characters, and that is the first quarter. No score, start at the top, and it's my turn now. Start with the ball. Okay? Okay, what'd you roll? Eight?
00:11:58
Speaker
Yeah, I rolled five, so I'm moving slow, but I'm moving fast. I'm going up. Oh, yeah, what's your team name? I would probably just be generic because I'm afraid I'm not a sports guy, so I just go Vanier. So that's the first one. 12. Still not making me go. I mean, like, I didn't go very far. The first one, second one, getting closer. I'm going to take a shot.
00:12:26
Speaker
Wait, do I get their... No, I don't get their bonus, right? I don't get... No, I'm not in this. Okay. No. So much for that, because one just left. Great faith in me. Good. Actually, two people left. How rude. Technically. 12 again. 12. Yeah, so I think the next one I'm going to go for a shot, because that's like it. But you have it?
00:12:53
Speaker
Yeah, I have the ball. Oh, I thought I had it. No, I started with the ball. No, okay. Because you started last time. Oh, he literally got kicked out. Yeah. Okay, go for it. Four. You didn't stop me, but I missed the goal. And it's your turn with the ball. All right, so 17. Okay. Yeah, keep going. So is that a pass or a run?
00:13:20
Speaker
That's whatever works best. Is there somebody right in front of me? Yeah. I'd say it's a normal play. Then pass. I get a 12, so I didn't block anything. It's your turn. Again. After I pass, I go, shoot it from there, and I got a nat 20.
00:13:39
Speaker
Oh, nice. So they shoot with an, when, because you got a natural 20, you, they like, yeah, they, you, you pass it forward and they kick it up and kick it in, like kick it above everyone's head and boom, score one. So what is, just confirm the score is one nothing at this point? Yeah, one nothing. Yeah.
00:14:06
Speaker
And you get one more play. We'll just start from the middle against your ball. I think that's how that's how football works.
00:14:15
Speaker
Yes, yes, it is, Jess. Go sports, James. Natural one. I'll get 12. Oh, yeah. So I'm just gonna move forward a bit. So what did you roll? I got a four. Four, okay. Just gonna keep going forward, passing this time up. And he's gonna, I'm gonna say shoot, I'm gonna give him a shot now. Okay, what'd you roll? 17. 17, you stop it, you block it. Okay, good. Yeah, yeah. So your goalie catches it and you got one play.
00:14:44
Speaker
You got one play to, he's going to throw it back in. So you got one play to either go for a long shot or. And that's, and then it's just the end of the game. I know. Okay. A 18 just to kind of kick it forward. Okay. Yeah. And you're fine. Kick it forward. Then that 20 for another shot. Yeah. Okay. Sure. Two, two nothing.
00:15:08
Speaker
Luke, be good at the football. Which is because it was never passed to me directly. Exactly. Foot to the ball. It's all good. Good times. Teamwork. I've just kind of me, myself, like in the hood. I'm just kind of standing in the corner. Yes. That's the secret to winning games when I'm on your team. Just don't let me play.
00:15:29
Speaker
But I think no, you get you get two more plays. OK, so then it's the end of the game. And it's the end of the game. OK. Well, it goes back to you, Jess, because it's if they score, I thought it was already back to me just. Yeah, it's a kickoff in the middle. So be you. Yeah. Yeah. I got a two. OK, I'm fine. I'm just going to move forward quite a bit. And then I'm I'm just going to go for a shot because I need to make two shots in these things. OK, 18. You block it again. Good.
00:15:58
Speaker
So I know seriously his team's doing really well. I was gonna say this is like me watching blank person do like a trivia but I can't think of anybody here that would be dumb so I'm not that great. I'm trying to think what what actually no I'm pretty okay in trivia. I'm trying to think what I would be a mastery of but Lee Lee's just watching me who was just like up there sports where I'm not entirely sure what game I'm even playing right now.
00:16:27
Speaker
Yeah, you're playing soccer or football in quarters instead of 90 minutes. So I'm just trying to move it along. At one point, you're going to pick up the ball and bounce it and try and aim for a basket. I'm pretty positive. And from the observation room, Lee is like cheering and stuff. And I'm just being like, what happened then? And what happened now? I'll keep on asking him what's happening in this game. I'll be in the chat because I'm not doing anything. Be like, I think I got a whole question mark.
00:17:00
Speaker
When the second goal goes in, I'm literally going to type in the chat, it's coming home, and then just with loads of exclamation points, and then just enter it. Yeah, that's the end. It's 2-0. Insolute you win. Of course. And you, as you do that,
00:17:22
Speaker
the arena kind of starts to dissolve around you and you see those who you were playing against and there was four or five others and they dissolve with the arena and you in that see a shiny key poking out from the wall.
00:17:47
Speaker
I'll grab it. You grab it and I need a wisdom save. Yeah, okay. Uh, nine. So you get teleported back and this, and so I want you guys to roll perception as well. But you're rolling. I vote an 11.
00:18:03
Speaker
11, okay? 10. 10 and 11. And you guys don't see it. See him. But you reappear in the shag carpet area in front of your game's trophy, and in that you see it light up as if you've done it. And then this key is pushing you, pulling you,
00:18:29
Speaker
to go up the stairs and you do so. And as you walk up to the stairs, I'll give you one more wisdom save. 18. So you get to the stairs, you look at the key and it looks like a circle, but it has like, it's got a line that goes one side and the other side. So his keys changed. This is the white key he picked up.
00:18:57
Speaker
Oh, okay. And where is it? It's just in the field? So you walked up these stairs and you're in front of this new door. That's basically you look behind you and the grand piano is behind you. But sorry, this key is by a new door that's upstairs?
00:19:17
Speaker
No, so this key is the key you picked from the wall. Right. And I still have it. It's in that white room. Yeah, you still have it. Okay. Is there like a... But then you click back into reality. And this might be an insight roll, but if I put it in my pocket, will it still be like calling to me? You roll insight or arcana. 16. 16. You think you'd be okay with putting it in your pocket?
00:19:42
Speaker
Okay, I'll do so. And if I need to roll with some save, I'll immediately get rid of it. Sure. See, I did it. I did a sports. Yeah, a sports tape. I was messaging you that we're in the observation room. Where are you? Yeah, I was reading the chat the whole time. Did you see me? You see me playing the game? Good job, bro. Good job, you won. Yeah. But also, I don't think you were supposed to go in there.
00:20:09
Speaker
Yeah, it seemed like the wrong one. But I got a key. I mean, maybe it was the right one. I got a key at least. You got a key? Yeah. Like one of the ones that have been tempting us to go into these games? Is that what happened? Yeah. Yep. I guess it is. Yep. Yep. You were under a spell or some trance or whatever, and you just walked into that room and started playing the game. Okay. That was more of a- You have another one though? Yeah. Oh, I got one in the game. Well, maybe you should get rid of that other one because I don't know.
00:20:39
Speaker
Well, is that unlocked for them as well? And I don't want to do an insight. What do you mean? Cause we're a, was it clan? What's the word I'm looking for? Cause we're a group. Is it also unlocked for them? Like did, did, did I get the key for the group rather than just myself?
00:20:56
Speaker
You did not get the second key, Luke. You didn't get the second key. You got a key. Oh, I thought you said I got the white key as well. You got a white key. You got a white key. Which was not the key that was in the wall. You got a white key that was in the wall poking out, yes. And what key did I not get? You didn't get the second key. What do you mean the second key?
00:21:20
Speaker
So there is a second key of the three keys. Yeah. It's not the overall key we're here for. Oh, yeah. Okay. Yeah. I know I didn't get that one. It's just another game's key. Yes. Okay. Can I have a right quick question? We've got the cube on us, haven't we? Yeah. Can we have a look on it? Like open it. You want to like inspect it? I want to inspect it. Okay. Roll investigation at Arcana. You can take a look at it. 12.
00:21:49
Speaker
Just want to see if there's anything like on the sides that like might be key related. That's with your, that's with the advantage. Oh yeah. Yeah. 12. Yeah. No. Okay. No key. Oh, I could roll to 16.
00:22:05
Speaker
There's no key, but with the 16, you can tell that the box is important, like not just what's inside it, but the box is also important.
The Mysterious Box
00:22:19
Speaker
And nothing extra for a 17? For a 17, you can tell that there's a blue glow on the box.
00:22:26
Speaker
inside the box yeah like along the the scene yeah like like like uh like if you put water to it it kind of shows a bit more like of the color i don't know what that means like if you were to do like run it like run a marker along like a cardboard you could see the color on the other side of that yeah so it's basically got a bluish finish on it
00:22:55
Speaker
Yeah, in a way. Interesting. What would I know if I rolled a net 20? If you rolled a net 20 insight? Yeah, I didn't. I didn't, but I'm just curious what would happen if I rolled a net 20. I can't tell you that. I would have told you everything. That's how this game works. What are you guys going to do? Can I look at all the screens and see what all the games are? Yeah. I mean, you've already done that, but yeah, go for it.
00:23:23
Speaker
Can we all do that? Yeah. Can I try again? Sure. Yeah, that's a nice role. I did two different roles. You want me to just start with trying to figure out what all the games are? Sure. I got a 16 for that. 16. What did you get, David? I got eight. What did you get, Lee? 16.
00:23:41
Speaker
16, 16. So with the two 16s, you see the Tetris, you see the football, you see the Pokemon Stadium, you also see the Super Smash Bros Stadium, you see a car one, you're not sure 100% of that, and then you don't see the last one, or the one that I haven't told you.
00:24:06
Speaker
Okay. So I'm just going to throw it out there guys. I think that's Mario Kart. I'm just saying it's all, so it only makes sense to have Mario Kart. Who wants to play a game? The, you all see the card one, which is a Yu-Gi-Oh Stadium. Was it Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon just the same thing though? I'm making enemies. If you're thinking of Digimon in Pokemon. Oh, okay. A bit better. Okay. Yeah. Yu-Gi-Oh and Magic the Gathering are the same thing.
00:24:36
Speaker
Oh, okay. I never watched Yu-Gi-Oh! Or Digimon, or maybe a little bit of that. I loved Yu-Gi-Oh! and Digimon. I think my brother had Yu-Gi-Oh! cards at one point. I have Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. I thought they were the same. Me too. I have Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. I made a samurai deck. Oh, look how cool you are. Yeah. I totally have a UA deck. And that's not the most embarrassing moment of your life? No, it's not. No, it's all...
00:25:05
Speaker
No way, what are you guys doing? Oh, what was your second role for it? To figure out what exactly was happening with like the white key. Like if we have to get, I assumed that it was getting all of the keys and then it'll be like a new door. Yeah, that's basically what it's doing, but there's a, so in locking key would be the way they find the keys, the keys call out to them and they find them in peculiar ways.
00:25:32
Speaker
And so that's kind of what you're doing. The added incentive to play the game is the keys also want to be used. And so it's more of a
00:25:45
Speaker
like not a lust for power, but like overwhelming sense of I want to know what this opens. So it's innate key related stuff. Pandora's key. But you're supposed to do it. So he knows that we're supposed to get all the keys in order to get the second key.
00:26:07
Speaker
You're supposed to get all the keys. You're supposed to find a certain key. If you look back at the poem, it says, I live among my brothers in a house not far away. I'm the key that you must find to move ahead today. And in that there is a specific key that you're supposed to find.
00:26:25
Speaker
to get the second key. Because you start out with one key, and as you play a game and finish it, you get another key. Oh, so this white key is a different one of the doors that it would have. Yes. Cool. Cool. Okay, so it's good that one of us played a game. This key can get us all in to the next game.
00:26:47
Speaker
yeah okay now that you have your bearings, you can all go in together. Should I go in by myself, then, since I'm the one who has to collect that last key and I don't want to have to fight you guys if it's smash brothers.
00:26:59
Speaker
I'll take a critical loss for Smash Bros. We'll just jump off the side. We do have extra lives, but I don't know if you guys are really going to want to recreate it. No, we could spend a life, but not come back into the game. Spend a life and come back into the observatory. I don't know if that's how it works. My other question, he says, move ahead. So obviously it seems like we play a game and then keep going forward and forward and forward.
00:27:28
Speaker
You think? Well, I think it doesn't matter. I don't think it makes sense for us to all risk it in each game. So why don't I just take the second room and if I get the final key, then great. If not, then, you know, we can reassess afterwards. Yeah, sure. So what we've got, Smash Bros Tetris, Pokemon FIFA. No, we don't choose. Oh, we don't have to take his white key. Oh, yeah. OK, yeah. Or you can use your own key. I'll give you that.
00:27:57
Speaker
But he did say it was a white key with a line and a circle in it. A circle and in that there's a line that goes down and to the right.
00:28:08
Speaker
Okay, I was thinking it was Pokemon because he said there was a circle and a line. I was like, it's a Pokeball, obviously. So down to the right. Down to the right. So not north and ahead. It's not an X. It's not an X. Not an X. It's more of an L. No, like a backwards L. Or a regular L. Yeah, I think it's a regular L. Regular L, down to the right. Okay. Hmm. Or you could take one of your keys.
00:28:35
Speaker
Let's go where Luke's keys taken us then, because he's already done one game. So let's see where the madness takes us. Who wants to go through? That's kind of the only one that we don't know. Like, did you guys look at your keys? Yeah. Mine's the Yu-Gi-Oh one. Okay. Yeah. And what was yours? Mine was probably Quidditch. I don't know what other brooms. Yeah. Cause we haven't got any broom. So I'm assuming it's Quidditch or something to do with brooms. So the only thing I can think of with brooms is Quidditch. So unless it's a cleaning game and that's just really sexist. So.
00:29:06
Speaker
I mean is there a witch game? And it's Devita as well of all people just saying it's all so I'm just getting even more sexist. Oh my gosh. Oh no wait I gotta do some rewrites. I gotta do some rewrites. I gotta do some rewrites. Was there a witch game? A witch? I mean there's plenty of witches games but yeah. Yeah but like a popular one. Not really. Yes that's probably footage. All right so yeah I'll go. You guys stay up here in the observatory.
00:29:36
Speaker
I'm assuming the observatory will see this game as well, right? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. We'll stay in the observatory. Yeah, sure. Let's do that. That'll take Luke's key then. Cool. Okay. Roll with them safe. That's okay. Do I need to just follow it or does it? Yeah. If you just want to give into it and follow it, then you can do.
00:29:55
Speaker
Yeah, I will, I'll give it to you. Okay, it just automatically, Luke, you give it to her and she like trances up and walks down these steps and goes up different steps and you put the key into the door, open it, and it says, choose your character! It's Smash, wait, yeah, right? Yeah, it's Smash Bros. It's Smash Bros. Oh, amazing.
00:30:22
Speaker
don't do Kirby. I'm trying to think what's the most like, like to be to the like to be just character like Zelda we fit trainer. Let's do that. She's an elf.
00:30:33
Speaker
So I will tell you, because this is a fan made thing, I have not associated with any of these guys, they do not sponsor us in any way, shape or form.
Davita's Gaming Challenge
00:30:43
Speaker
We are having custom characters as well as, so your character is in there as a option. Or you can choose the novelty ones, not anything of recent, for example.
00:31:00
Speaker
I don't know the recent stuff anyway, so I just know classic Smash Bros. Well, I don't know. I think you should be you because you got the power dress on, haven't you? Like you got armor and stuff on.
00:31:13
Speaker
Yeah. So if I chose one of the other characters, I would obviously automatically not be, not have all my stuff. Is that right? You would have your stuff, but you would be another character. So you wouldn't have, let's say like you would, you would have specific jump attack, like the basic moves like Luke had when he was playing as not himself. So you wouldn't use your stats. You would use,
00:31:40
Speaker
the stats of the character but you'd still have your stuff but the sorry the stuff would move over to the character correct yes so it's entirely possible that she will probably not exactly but somewhat similar to bowser and address yeah cool so this is davida playing lee now you know it was like what's the wildest most outlandish thing you put this person
00:32:03
Speaker
Yeah. Let's, let's go ahead and be, no, no, no. I'll just be myself because I want them to be able to find me. Okay. Cause if I, if I become one of the characters, they won't know which game I'm playing. So I'll just say, you'll apply a thing will be on the screen. You wouldn't know you're playing a game, but I know I'm playing a game, but they would know. Yeah. Cause it comes, if we're watching a smash bro screen, we would know who you are. Cause of your stocks and all that stuff. Oh, they went. Okay. Yeah. Oh, okay. Well then that case, yeah, I guess it'll be.
00:32:32
Speaker
I'll be Zelda as long as I can keep my things, my invisibility ring, my, or my one ring and my lightsaber and my ex, oh, but not my dress with the extra armor, right? Yeah, no, keep that. Okay, so yeah, so my armor class is 16 with the dress. Okay, yeah, all right, we'll be Zelda.
00:32:54
Speaker
OK, so so you click on Zelda and you are teleported to the Super Mario map where it's in the sky. And now we're going to roll initiative. OK, get my dice. And you are fighting Yoshi, obviously. And OK.
00:33:16
Speaker
And Fox. And. Oh, Fox is. Were there controllers? No, he didn't find any controllers. Can I look? Yeah, go for it. Like, do I know if there are people behind these specific characters? Possibly. Is that a separate role? Sure.
00:33:37
Speaker
16 to try to find a controller. Yeah, you find controllers. And not 20 to know if the other question. You totally, yes, there are different NPCs behind those other people. Every single one of them. Every single one. Yeah. Sorry, did I find a controller? Is it stock or time? You did find a controller. What? Is it stock or time? It is stock. I only have four lives. Right. I rolled a nine for initiative.
00:34:05
Speaker
I'll pass it on to Lee if he wants to, the controller. I'm a pacifist, but that doesn't mean I can't. No, fair. Oh, I'm in. Yeah, give me the controls. Here's a Smash Bros. I know what I'm doing. When do you roll, Davida? I'm nine. We'll say to Lee, make sure you take out the other guys first and then jump. Sure. Thank you. Okay, then you roll. Do you roll initiative as well, Lee? Oh, no, I'll go.
00:34:35
Speaker
Wait, are there multiple controllers that I could also play? Yeah, 16. You find two controllers. I'm so confused. What? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, 19. Also 19. So you guys have to pick between Yoshi and Fox, because I haven't put their initiatives down. You got your controller first, so you two. I'll go with Fox. OK. So they just won't attack me then, right?
00:34:59
Speaker
You guys can all do whatever. They're going to have some issues, but they're going to murder. We're going to murder the other one, whoever the other one was. So you can control characters that are actually found the controller for us. We'll see. Now it's, let's say it's Yoshi.
00:35:17
Speaker
first, and I'm going to do a roll. And you have control. So what do you want Yoshi to do? Well, you're saying I have full control. Okay. As of right now. Sure. What is the order of the line? Sorry. So it would be, let's say, Zelda and Fox, one side, then Yoshi and Samus. Oh, it's Luke, not with us.
00:35:46
Speaker
You're on the same... You're on 1.1. You're similar to the side of the game. Yeah, I've got you. Okay, okay, okay. Go, go. Do you want to think if it would be better to bring everyone together or if I should just start with... You know, I'll fight Samus. Okay, roll an attack. And there's no, like, 16. You hit Samus. You know... You hit Samus. Five hours an egg. Yep. Hoop him off the edge.
00:36:16
Speaker
I will roll damage. Okay, then it is Fox. I'm just going to shoot Samus. Okay, that's one of his beliefs. I need to roll for the quick. Yep, you have control.
00:36:30
Speaker
Okay, cool. Yeah, I'm gonna shoot Samus, because that's my... Great roll of d20. Okay. We are looking at a hilarious... I do not know how to use these controllers, so we'll leave it at that, Jess. What did you roll? I just look at the controller and go like, oh, I haven't used one of these in a while.
00:36:51
Speaker
There you go. It's literally all I have to do is press B to shoot his laser. I couldn't figure that out. Exactly. Exactly. And Samus kind of looks at everyone and then you just hear, are you guys coming after me? What did I do? She just jumps in the air and that's her turn. Straight 30? What? Straight 30 in the air? Yeah, straight 30. Yeah. And then it's Davida's turn.
00:37:21
Speaker
I'm gonna do power charge up, energy charge up.
00:37:26
Speaker
Okay, yeah, that's fine. You can just do that. Did it roll for that? No, you don't need to roll for that, you just charge. So now it is back to Yoshi. Can we roll? Yeah, you have control? Yeah, depending on if it hits or not, I'll say I'm just gonna shoot a tongue attack. It's a 10, so it doesn't hit. No, it doesn't hit. Yeah, it's from a lack of understanding Yoshi, whether or not that's far enough, but we're definitely clearly shooting for Samus.
00:37:55
Speaker
but you also have to move if you, cause she was going straight up, you need to move under her first because you don't shoot in angles in smash. I did not know that. So yeah, I'll, I'll just move under her, like right directly under. Okay. It is now Fox. I should have made it like a person. Uh, I'll do time limit. Oh yeah. Cause basically he's like, if Samus is in the air, I can't jump up and shoot, can I? You can jump, but you can't shoot.
00:38:24
Speaker
Yeah, because she's already in the air, so she's going to come down. Yeah. So I'll hold my, can I hold my action or not? Yeah, definitely. I'll hold my action then. Then it's Samus. As she lands, do you want to? Shooter. Shooter. Okay, go for it.
00:38:41
Speaker
Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out this controller. That's another two. What the heck? And then she's just like, what, what are you, what, what, why, why are we all talking to me? It's, it's everyone against everyone. And you hear the, the other two lines. We don't know. What are you doing to us? They look at you. I do his torn. No, they look at Zelda. Zelda? Are you being controlled?
00:39:06
Speaker
Yes, Lee and I are just like, yes, yes, spam. Oh, okay. I'll look at my thing, then I'll say, yes, yes, I am. We're all deception. That's with advantage, Craig, because we're helping. I'll say with advantage, yeah, yeah, yeah. Spam in orange, chat on the bloody thing. Oh, I think it was like a six. They all look at you like, you're not being controlled at all. What's happening? Show me your moves.
00:39:34
Speaker
I'm gonna assume Lee and Luke told me they were controlling characters in the chat. I don't think they did, they didn't say. Then I'll just respond, I don't know what's happening. And they, then, uh, Samus is like, well, I'm gonna get you then. I need to, the only thing I can do is get, go after you. It's only fair, cause I don't want to touch these guys. Show me your moves. And she's going- I don't know what to tell you.
00:40:04
Speaker
So are you. I'm not attacking you. I just charged up. That's true. You guys are talking, but you're still like, I'm just charging. Yeah. And I believe Samus. Well, does a 12 hits. No, it doesn't. But now it's to be this turn. Okay. I will shoot. Uh, I guess I will shoot Samus.
00:40:25
Speaker
She tried to attack me, and I don't know that we are being controlled by Lee and Luke. You've been incoming. Lee and I have full chance to tell you, but we just don't. Okay, you're shooting. With the charge, no, that's fine, Raul. Yeah, shooting with the charge. You can add two to the point, Raul.
00:40:50
Speaker
I can because I was like, I rolled a six. Oh, she rolled a six. She basically kicked over and you both missed each other. I was going to say the shield, she just blocks it. Oh, that's true, but you need to block in order to block. That's true. Okay, Luke, you still have control of Yoshi. And it's just Yoshi on one side.
00:41:14
Speaker
and the rest of them on the other side. All right, then probably just moving. Okay. Off the edge, right? Maybe. Oh yeah, no, because I'll spawn in closer, right? If I just fall. Sure. I don't know, but the more times you die, the more useful it is for me. What are you doing? Me? Yoshi? Yeah, I'm walking off the edge. Oh, you're walking off the edge, okay. So yeah, you walk up the edge and you fall down on the same side.
00:41:44
Speaker
Okay. Cool. But down to three lives. You're like on a little cloud when you come back. Okay. Now let me roll. Lee, you do not have control. So Fox is going to like, like shake and I think I can move. What are you doing pointing at Zelda? It wasn't me. I don't know what you're talking about. I can't put up my shield. Can I?
00:42:11
Speaker
No, you didn't choose the block, but he's going to shoot at you. Different teams in the chat. But he misses. And Samus is going to just jump and drop a bomb on you and see if that works. Which that's also where Fox is? Is it? No, because Fox shot. Natural 20. No, no, no.
00:42:37
Speaker
that is 10% down. So you're down 10, so to 40. And it is your turn. Okay, I want to change into Sheik, I think. Okay. Yeah. And that's your turn. And it is Yoshi. Let me see. You have control of Yoshi. Good. That's when I do with it.
00:43:02
Speaker
I don't know, what are you doing with it? Do you get it really jump off the map again? Yeah, jump really hard. And it's talking is a free action, right? You can, can we talk? Yeah. Because I'll just be like gesturing to go, what would that be, left or right or whatever, off the edge. Just hold the controller in that direction and don't even look. You know, Yoshi can hold people inside of his mouth.
00:43:25
Speaker
oh yeah yeah with that natural 20 i will say you can grab one of the characters and you can jump off the edge all right yeah i'll grab if i can grab samus sure sure you she like lands you suck her in and you run off the edge cool that's amazing but i also want to ask great how many lives do we get with this should be three stock right no it's four oh jess goes four stock more times okay
00:43:56
Speaker
now it's fox let's see if you have control you do not have control okay so fox looks back and thinks that yoshi or yeah yoshi's got something wrong with him and looks at you to vita yes you're the only one left and shoots at you again i love that you're the only one left
00:44:21
Speaker
uh designated yeah he's just like freaking out he's like i don't even want to do this i don't even know how he ended up here i'm one of the little pegs kids of it i feel a little bad but not that bad and it is samus samus reappears jumps down and that's all she can do now it's the vedistan
00:44:43
Speaker
Sorry, I'm gonna use Sheik's chain to try and grab, I guess Fox, since Fox just attacked me, and throw him off the edge. Okay, roll. It's not an attack. It's a grapple, I think. Grapple, yeah. 16.
00:45:02
Speaker
Yeah, you grab him. Now, that's the end. You grab him now. You don't get to throw him off yet. And now it is Yoshi's turn. Obviously, I don't even need to turn it on. I could just drop down, right? Yeah, yeah. But I will say at this point, Yoshi is completely under your control. I'm not going to roll anymore. Cool. I thought you were going to say the opposite. Everyone's like, it's long enough. You've been playing for him. No, no. No, no.
00:45:31
Speaker
I double check with the rules just to see if I could do the two actions. Actually, actually, I will say also, as Yoshi comes down, he does like tumble down and almost touches the edge, like falls off the edge. And now it's foxes. Let's see. You do not have control of fox. I don't know why fox wants to live. Why don't I just turn to Lee and be like, this is easy. You just push the buttons and they work.
00:46:00
Speaker
He's going to try and get out of the grapple. You have to roll a strength save. That's a nine. Nine. He does get out of the grapple. So now it's Samus' turn and she's going to try and kick ya. Ya being like this. Kick ya. Who is, who is ya? And literally like she jumps, she tries to kick and off the edge. Just. That, that one. Yeah, that one.
00:46:31
Speaker
Yeah, so that's two down for Samus, two down for Yoshi. Yes. Yeah, that's two. Yeah. And now it's your turn to read it. I'm going to do the chain thing again with Fox. I rolled a net 20. Okay, great. So yeah, you get to just throw them off the edge. Yeah. So Fox, like it's out of the grapple.
00:46:54
Speaker
And then all of a sudden, just get again. And then this time it's so quick that he was like, oh, balls. And so that's one more. So that's two, two. Okay, interesting. You gotta roll some things. But it's back up to Yoshi. What are you doing? There's no items, correct? There hasn't been yet. Okay, let's just double check.
00:47:18
Speaker
It's just Samus and I are same. No, she fell off. Did she? It's just you and David. Okay.
00:47:26
Speaker
I'm going to ready an action that when Samus does fall down, I'll just. Okay, great. Hopefully that didn't sound terrible in the audio clip, but. No, that was great. So Fox, Fox's turn. And again, still not wanting to be, not getting there. Lee is just accepting. He's rolling high enough. He's rolling high enough. He's literally here smiling. Yeah.
00:47:52
Speaker
So he comes down and, uh, that's it. That's the end of his turn. Then Samus comes down and yeah, roll for suckage, which is a grapple 16. Yeah, you get it. Okay. So she's, she's in her mouth now. So many people jealous. Please immediate reaction to be this turn. So I'm going to hang out my lightsaber.
00:48:24
Speaker
And slash at Fox. Okay. Roll for an attack. Sephora. You missed. Very close though. That was, oh no, I'm not rolling for Yoshi anymore. It's Yoshi again. Is it movement if I turn around?
00:48:38
Speaker
No. Okay, then turn around and spit her out. I'm not just next to you. If was I like teetering on the edge? Oh, yes, that's right. Yes, turn around. Okay. Okay, cool. So you spit her out, rage, then it's Fox's turn. And you still don't have control. It's so funny.
00:48:59
Speaker
Fox tries to shoot it. Divina does a 14 hit. Nope. Nope. Okay. Then it is Samus and she's just going to try and jump back. She tries to make the jump, but is so like not even, not even close to the border to grab onto it. So she's got one life. Now it's the biggest turn. Ready in action. Okay. Uh, block. Oh, great. Okay. Cool.
00:49:28
Speaker
What does Yoshi do? Probably walk over to, or just go over to Fox. Okay. Just, I'm rolling in case I can do two things, but I don't think, I don't think 19 counts is anything. And let's see. Nope. Still, still fighting. Yeah. Fox is going to shoot. He, he's getting so flustered that he just aims down and shoots himself in the foot.
00:49:52
Speaker
And that one. So yeah, and that one throw. Okay. Okay. Then it is Samus and Samus is in our last life. Correct. Yeah. I'm trying to think of how desperate she would be. I think, I think block stops a grapple as well. Right. It just stops everything. Cause you're just in that like little bubble thing. Yeah.
00:50:16
Speaker
I think she's going to jump up. Jump up? Just jump straight up. My goodness.
00:50:26
Speaker
Nat wanted to jump up. She ends up jumping up, but at that moment, the terrain, the map starts to shift to its next destination and she doesn't get taken with it and falls to her death. Oh, I've done that before.
00:50:47
Speaker
But with that, you all do see an item as well for a box anyways, a box. Is it the green box with the question mark on it? Yeah. Is that good? I guess this meta gave me a fair ask if that's good. I don't know exactly. That one turns you into metal. Yoshi. That one turns you into metal. Your turn. I think you're, yeah, yeah. Yeah, someone that turns you into metal.
00:51:11
Speaker
All right, would it be one move to jump up and get it? Or no, that's... Yeah, that would be one move. Okay, I'll do that. Okay, so you turn into Metal. Cool. That's it. You just Metal Yoshi. I'll turn to Lee and be like, is this helpful? I don't know. Yeah, yeah, it makes you incredibly hard. Hard to hit, you take hardly any damage. Okay, Yoshi is back in your control. Oh no, Fox is back in your control. How are you doing, Lee?
00:51:36
Speaker
I'm finally going to play. This is great. Is Samus in my range? He's dead. Samus is gone. Oh, Samus is dead. Yeah, I'll jump off the platform then. Why not? Okay, sure. So Fox is down to two. Oh, this is so much easier with them continually killing each other and others. It's going to take it so much longer. It's your turn to beat him. Okay, puzzled but pleased. I will swing. Wait, is there anyone next to me?
00:52:04
Speaker
It's just, Yoshi's the other one around. Just you and Yoshi, but I don't think he's next to you. Yeah, yeah, he's not nice to me. Then I'll use my, I'll throw my grappling hook at Yoshi. Oh, it's metal though. So actually, no, I'm not going to. I think you... Not in that angle, because he jumped up onto one of the platforms. Oh, he's on one of the platforms, okay. I will transform back into Zelda.
00:52:27
Speaker
Okay, and it is your turn, Yoshi. Yeah, I'm trying to figure it out if I want to be the very best. There ever was, no.
00:52:40
Speaker
Can I ready an action to swallow if, if Lee isn't playing as Fox, that'd be possible. Sure. Or if that's too much of a condition to be like watching him, seeing if he's actually playing or, but if it's not done yet, then I'll do that. No, it's fine. You have control of Fox. Okay. So I died in spawn back in, right? Yes. So all you can do is basically fall down.
00:53:05
Speaker
yeah I was gonna say you can jump from your platform but okay cool um I guess I just float down then because I want to just try and jump off my uh platform and end to the edge but that's fine I'll just uh fall down and land near Luke I think okay uh it is Davida's turn oh wait yeah you have already action so you you can do you want to you can still suck them up yeah
00:53:30
Speaker
I'll do it just in case. Yeah. Okay. Roll second. Oh, yeah. Well, isn't he like choosing to fail? Oh, sure. Well, unless it would be a new thing that Fox can control. No, no. Okay. Then I'll just do it. That's fine. Davita, your turn. Taunt, taunt, taunt. Yeah, get the crowd on your side. Do you get anything for taunt? You jumped off the edge already?
00:53:57
Speaker
No, no. Yoshi just swallowed fox. Okay. I will go towards Yoshi. Okay. So you hop onto this platform.
00:54:08
Speaker
Actually, I'll teleport to Yoshi. Cool. So you do your twist and teleport and you're there. And it is Yoshi's turn. Complete fear of how Zavida will just total deception being like, oh, no, I am playing the game and you are super scary. Jump off the edge with both of us. OK, cool. Down to one life each. And it is Fox's turn.
00:54:37
Speaker
And you have control of the fox. But again, he just died, so. Yeah, and I jumped last turn, I fell down. So this turn, I'm going to jump. No, no, he just died again. Oh, well, I fall down then, I guess. Sorry. So glad to be a part of this game because I can't figure out an N64 controller. Then your. It's my turn.
00:55:01
Speaker
Oh, is Yoshi gone for good now? No. Nope. Oh. Still not gone though. One each. Okay, then I will hit Fox with my lightsaber. Okay, roll check. 16. 16 hits. And Lee does not feel that, correct? No, Lee does not feel that, but the person that is in there does. Okay, I just wanted to double check that Lee and I will not die at the end of this. No, no, you're fine.
00:55:29
Speaker
awkward if it was yes it this is the perfect time to realize that too where we have one right after you've walked off the edge a couple times i just kind of got one life all right let's get away from the controller stop touching it roll the attack oh i would say with the lightsaber it's an instant kill yes power so you kill fox and he doesn't come back or you know one more life
00:55:56
Speaker
He, you see what happens is you cut into him, he flickers, and you see the person underneath crying and broken, and then fades. Make it worse, Jesse. That didn't happen to us, Samus. He's a six-year-old. Because Samus is gone. She wasn't on your map anymore. You couldn't see her. Yeah, you just cut a kid in half. Oh, another NPC here, you're fine. It's all good.
00:56:25
Speaker
Now it is Yoshi's turn. He'll fall down. Okay. Do it again, Davida. Do it. Do it. Do it. Strike him down. Do it. Do it. Strike him down.
00:56:43
Speaker
and a weird voice. Sixteen. Sixteen hits. And Yoshi. This time, it was an old lady. She was. She just looks at you. Oh, Margaret. Thank you, dear. And dies. I am horrified. Wow. I'm doing like high five Lee, but like we did it because I don't think I'm close. It's really easy. I don't think I can see what's happening.
Reflections and Revelations
00:57:09
Speaker

00:57:10
Speaker

You don't look at the key, you grab the key and you get teleported back to the trophy room. You stand in front of your trophy, it lights up. Then you walk over to the room in front of or behind the grand piano to the right. So you walk past the grand piano, make another right in that room and need another wisdom safe.
