Introduction and Setup
00:00:04
Speaker
In this episode of Let's Play Pretend, we use a little bit of material from Disney and Nintendo as far as sound effects, characters, voices, and patterning for songs.
00:00:14
Speaker
We want to make it clear we are not the owners of any of these.
00:00:17
Speaker
This is just us having a little bit of fun on this Halloween to give you a spooky extra release.
00:00:22
Speaker
I hope you enjoy.
00:00:23
Speaker
We do not own those sounds, characters, or songs.
00:00:28
Speaker
Let's Play Pretend is an explicit podcast with subject matter that may be disturbing to some listeners.
00:00:33
Speaker
Content warnings can be found in the episode description.

Cody's laughing, so it's good.

Halloween Takeover Begins
00:01:08
Speaker
Hello, everybody, and welcome back to Let's Play Protect.
00:01:13
Speaker
What?
00:01:14
Speaker
What's this?
00:01:17
Speaker
Nick, come on.
00:01:18
Speaker
What's this?
00:01:20
Speaker
This is a hostile takeover.
00:01:23
Speaker
Welcome to the Halloween episode of Let's Play Pretend, everybody.
00:01:27
Speaker
Nick Barnett here taking over the spook show for all of you guys.
00:01:31
Speaker
I'm here to introduce Mr. Breck Black.
00:01:36
Speaker
I don't know whether to be scared of the hostile takeover or join in.
00:01:41
Speaker
Well, you don't really have a choice.
00:01:42
Speaker
You're stuck in my basement tonight.
00:01:45
Speaker
Matt Check, how are you?
00:01:46
Speaker
I'm doing good.
00:01:48
Speaker
Are we starting to coup?
00:01:51
Speaker
I might be, whether you join me is up to you.
00:01:54
Speaker
Melanie Derringer, and you?
00:01:57
Speaker
Mutiny.
00:01:58
Speaker
Bring it on.
00:02:01
Speaker
And a name you all know far too well, Mr. Jordan Derringer.
00:02:07
Speaker
Hello, everybody.
00:02:08
Speaker
It's good to be in the player seat again.
00:02:12
Speaker
Oh, we'll see if you think that near the end.
00:02:15
Speaker
So, before we get started with this little game that I've come up with...
00:02:21
Speaker
I have a couple quick questions for each of you, as yourselves.
00:02:24
Speaker
We'll start with you, Breck.
00:02:28
Speaker
It is Halloween night.
00:02:29
Speaker
It is 7.58.
00:02:32
Speaker
What are you doing?
00:02:36
Speaker
I would be out with my son trick-or-treating and wondering if I need to get home.
00:02:42
Speaker
I see, I see.
00:02:43
Speaker
Well, the clock changes.
00:02:44
Speaker
It's 7.59.
00:02:47
Speaker
And all of a sudden, you hear a strange...
00:02:52
Speaker
Ding!
00:02:55
Speaker
What could that be?
00:02:56
Speaker
There's no clock tower.
00:02:58
Speaker
There's no church bells that would be chiming right now.
00:03:01
Speaker
Halloween's almost over.
00:03:04
Speaker
Instinctually, you have a need to look inside of your son's bucket full of candy.
Chimes and Transformation
00:03:13
Speaker
And now we'll jump over to Mr. Matt Check.
00:03:17
Speaker
Matt, what would you be doing on Halloween at 7.58 p.m.?
00:03:22
Speaker
Mmm, I'd probably be at a party.
00:03:26
Speaker
At a party, that's wonderful.
00:03:28
Speaker
Are you drinking, Red Solo Cup?
00:03:30
Speaker
Oh, of course.
00:03:32
Speaker
Of course, 759 hits.
00:03:36
Speaker
Strangely, you also are hearing a strange chiming sound that... This is new.
00:03:43
Speaker
We don't have this here.
00:03:45
Speaker
They never ring the bells this late in the night.
00:03:48
Speaker
You look into your cup.
00:03:51
Speaker
Jordan...
00:03:52
Speaker
Melanie, I imagine you two are probably together.
00:03:56
Speaker
What are you doing on Halloween night at 7.58?
00:03:59
Speaker
I would say most likely heading home from trick-or-treating.
00:04:05
Speaker
Yeah, I agree with that.
00:04:08
Speaker
Either that or we'd just be wrapping up, maybe going to try and hit one or two more houses before it ends.
00:04:14
Speaker
Oh, that's wonderful.
00:04:15
Speaker
As you walk in, you can see people starting to turn their lights off.
00:04:18
Speaker
Halloween comes to an end at 8 o'clock after all.
00:04:22
Speaker
759.
00:04:24
Speaker
And you, unbeknownst to you, just like the other two, you begin to hear this strange chiming sound, like a bell and a gong at the same time.
00:04:38
Speaker
It strikes the eighth strike, and something draws your eyes up into the lamppost.
00:04:47
Speaker
All of you at the same time
00:04:50
Speaker
Matt in your cup, Breck in the candy bowl, Melanie and Jordan up at the lamppost.
00:04:57
Speaker
You see a dark flash.
00:05:00
Speaker
It's strange.
00:05:01
Speaker
It's a blinding black light.
00:05:05
Speaker
And then, snap.
00:05:08
Speaker
You find yourselves laying on what feels like a large piece of wood.
00:05:18
Speaker
On this piece of wood, you can see trees in a large circle around you.
00:05:25
Speaker
Can I get everybody to roll me a history check, please?
00:05:30
Speaker
History.
00:05:35
Speaker
Starting off with a night good.
00:05:38
Speaker
Night 20.
00:05:41
Speaker
Three.
00:05:44
Speaker
Also a three.
00:05:48
Speaker
21.
00:05:48
Speaker
I'm not even kidding.
00:05:50
Speaker
I got a nat 20 with a plus three is 23.
00:05:54
Speaker
This is absolutely perfect for you, Jordan.
00:05:57
Speaker
Sorry, Melanie.
00:06:00
Speaker
This history check was how well would you know the nightmare before Christmas?
00:06:08
Speaker
Son of a fucking bitch.
00:06:09
Speaker
I don't want to play anymore.
00:06:12
Speaker
I don't want to play anymore.
00:06:15
Speaker
Melanie, you pass the check too.
00:06:18
Speaker
Matt, Breck, you don't really recognize this.
00:06:21
Speaker
This is strange.
00:06:22
Speaker
You've never seen this before.
00:06:23
Speaker
You don't know how you got here.
00:06:25
Speaker
But... Jordan, Melanie... What's this?
00:06:29
Speaker
Yes!
00:06:31
Speaker
You understand?
00:06:33
Speaker
No.
00:06:34
Speaker
Jordan and Melanie, you recognize
Mysterious Setting and Characters
00:06:36
Speaker
this.
00:06:36
Speaker
This is the circle where all of the holidays have their own entrance.
00:06:42
Speaker
You recognize this from...
00:06:45
Speaker
what is apparently one of both of your favorite movies if you know it oh so well.
00:06:50
Speaker
No.
00:06:50
Speaker
It is not my favorite movie.
00:06:53
Speaker
She just knows it by proxy.
00:06:55
Speaker
Exactly.
00:06:58
Speaker
So you two know each other.
00:07:02
Speaker
Obviously we all know each other here.
00:07:06
Speaker
But take a look.
00:07:08
Speaker
You look at your hands.
00:07:09
Speaker
You look around you.
00:07:11
Speaker
You're not you.
00:07:14
Speaker
Anymore.
00:07:17
Speaker
Would you like to describe your characters?
00:07:18
Speaker
We'll start off with Breck.
00:07:23
Speaker
Well, to be fair, I actually just made me.
00:07:29
Speaker
Six foot long brown hair.
00:07:33
Speaker
Slight tan.
00:07:35
Speaker
Has a little bit of muscle, but nothing like super muscular or big.
00:07:38
Speaker
You know, average guy kind of blends into the background.
00:07:44
Speaker
Wonderful.
00:07:45
Speaker
And then Mr. Matt Check?
00:07:48
Speaker
Hang on.
00:07:49
Speaker
Can I just say, average guy that just blends into the background is such a depressing way to describe yourself.
00:07:57
Speaker
My heart hurt when you said that.
00:08:03
Speaker
I just wanted to hug you.
00:08:05
Speaker
You know we love you, right, buddy?
00:08:07
Speaker
Yeah, I do.
00:08:08
Speaker
I just, the amount of times I've scared the shit out of people just walking into a room normally because they didn't recognize I was there.
00:08:15
Speaker
It's just, it's just how it is.
00:08:18
Speaker
Feel that.
00:08:22
Speaker
Well, I basically made myself as well.
00:08:25
Speaker
You know, I'm a four foot dwarf with a brown beard.
00:08:34
Speaker
Okay, first of all, for those of you who don't know what Matt looks like, Matt is like six feet tall.
00:08:45
Speaker
I'm a Mark of Warding dwarf, so I've got some magic possibilities in me, but I'm a monk, a dwarf monk.
00:08:57
Speaker
So basically anything below four feet is within my punching range, so you wait.
00:09:05
Speaker
Wonderful.
00:09:06
Speaker
And Melanie, would you like to describe your character?
00:09:10
Speaker
So my character looks nothing like me.
00:09:14
Speaker
She is about five, six and has blondish silver hair with blue green eyes and is very, I would say,
00:09:30
Speaker
Slender.
00:09:31
Speaker
Because I am, I mean, I'm not the, I'm not like a male person, but I mean, I'm not like a petite pro woman either.
00:09:37
Speaker
So she is petite and very stunning in appearance.
00:09:44
Speaker
Awesome.
00:09:45
Speaker
And Jordan Derringer.
00:09:48
Speaker
Ironically, I also made myself.
00:09:51
Speaker
My character is, you know, right around six feet tall.
00:09:55
Speaker
He's got kind of...
00:09:57
Speaker
Longer on top hair, you know, kind of it's longer on top, except for where the horns are growing out and got a nice long tail.
00:10:09
Speaker
Oh, and he's a tiefling.
00:10:10
Speaker
I must I didn't mention.
00:10:12
Speaker
Yeah, I'm red.
00:10:13
Speaker
I'm a tiefling.
00:10:14
Speaker
Wonderful.
00:10:16
Speaker
Well, go ahead and take everything you guys just told me and imagine it in claymation.
00:10:26
Speaker
You quite literally... I feel like we're very expensive.
00:10:30
Speaker
I hate it.
00:10:31
Speaker
Oh, you are very expensive.
00:10:34
Speaker
You look at your hands.
00:10:35
Speaker
You look up and down your bodies.
00:10:37
Speaker
You find yourself... This is strange.
00:10:40
Speaker
Things are bending a little different.
00:10:43
Speaker
Things feel different.
00:10:45
Speaker
Jesus fucking Christ, I'm red.
00:10:48
Speaker
Sorry, I had to get that out there.
00:10:50
Speaker
The red shocks me.
00:10:52
Speaker
Uh-huh.
00:10:53
Speaker
All of you, while you're noticing this, you're noticing the world is strange.
00:10:59
Speaker
You see something, Jordan, with your nat 20, you notice in the center of this ring, which normally has nothing in it, there is a very large stump.
00:11:09
Speaker
It is serrated and chopped down like it was hacked with not a care.
00:11:14
Speaker
And on the other side of it, can I get all of you to make a perception check?
00:11:20
Speaker
You got it.
00:11:22
Speaker
So this is probably a good time to bring up.
00:11:24
Speaker
I have a 26 passive perception.
00:11:28
Speaker
Jesus Christ.
00:11:30
Speaker
Yes.
00:11:31
Speaker
Unlike many, I know the difference between passive and active.
00:11:35
Speaker
You need an active check to notice this.
00:11:37
Speaker
How the fuck do you have a 26?
00:11:40
Speaker
How is that possible?
00:11:43
Speaker
Expertise, and I believe I have a feat that adds to it as well.
00:11:48
Speaker
Plus 20 wisdom.
00:11:49
Speaker
So...
Exploring the Towns and Meeting Finkelstein
00:11:52
Speaker
There's a lot going into it.
00:11:54
Speaker
Yeah, there is.
00:11:57
Speaker
I got a 16.
00:12:00
Speaker
I also got a 16.
00:12:00
Speaker
I got a 13.
00:12:03
Speaker
It's a good thing you guys didn't need a high roll.
00:12:06
Speaker
Breck, I'm just going to assume you passed.
00:12:07
Speaker
If you rolled a nat 1, I think you'll get over a 10.
00:12:09
Speaker
Uh, 21?
00:12:11
Speaker
Jesus Christ.
00:12:13
Speaker
Yeah, that's what I thought.
00:12:15
Speaker
You hear on the other side of this stump, you can't see anything, but you just hear...
00:12:21
Speaker
kind of a gurgling cough.
00:12:26
Speaker
Oh, so you mean Jordan's normal cough?
00:12:29
Speaker
Wow.
00:12:31
Speaker
Shots fired.
00:12:34
Speaker
I'm sassy tonight.
00:12:34
Speaker
I'm sorry.
00:12:36
Speaker
She's been like this to me all day.
00:12:39
Speaker
So you all hear this gurgly cough.
00:12:41
Speaker
What do you do?
00:12:43
Speaker
I'm going to go and investigate it.
00:12:46
Speaker
Same here.
00:12:49
Speaker
I'm going to stay a little farther away.
00:12:50
Speaker
I'm going to stay back.
00:12:52
Speaker
You know, you know.
00:12:53
Speaker
Yeah.
00:12:55
Speaker
Since I know Melanie came with me, I'm going to turn around and be like, hey, stay back there.
00:13:00
Speaker
Okay.
00:13:00
Speaker
Aye, aye, Captain.
00:13:02
Speaker
You're my wife.
00:13:04
Speaker
My wife.
00:13:05
Speaker
This is my wife.
00:13:07
Speaker
Now, okay.
00:13:09
Speaker
I would know who Breck is because he looks like Breck.
00:13:12
Speaker
Would I know who Matt is?
00:13:17
Speaker
Probably not unless he said something.
00:13:19
Speaker
Hello!
00:13:21
Speaker
Um, hi.
00:13:24
Speaker
Who are you?
00:13:26
Speaker
I am very nice man!
00:13:31
Speaker
Okay, I'm gonna go check out this coughing, then.
00:13:36
Speaker
You... Yeah, you do that, George.
00:13:40
Speaker
Matt?
00:13:42
Speaker
Yeah, bro.
00:13:43
Speaker
What do you think?
00:13:45
Speaker
I'm sorry.
00:13:45
Speaker
I'm used to you being like two fucking feet taller.
00:13:48
Speaker
The beard should have given it away though.
00:13:50
Speaker
The fuck?
00:13:51
Speaker
Yeah.
00:13:52
Speaker
Well, we're in your favorite movies, so this should make you happy.
00:13:55
Speaker
Oh, dude, I'm ecstatic.
00:13:56
Speaker
But hey, let's check out this coughing.
00:13:58
Speaker
Someone could be dying, I guess.
00:14:00
Speaker
You do that.
00:14:01
Speaker
All right.
00:14:03
Speaker
So those of you who walk around to see what's on the other side, you see a very slender, very tall...
00:14:15
Speaker
Man?
00:14:16
Speaker
Creature?
00:14:17
Speaker
But it's not right.
00:14:20
Speaker
You recognize this person in their pinstripe suit, normally black and white, full of vibrancy in their attitude.
00:14:28
Speaker
You see Jack Skellington laying up against the edge of this downed tree, a dark void behind him, his head kind of leaning against the edge of this stump like a pillow.
00:14:43
Speaker
Covered.
00:14:44
Speaker
in blood.
00:14:46
Speaker
You see cuts all over his body.
00:14:48
Speaker
You see his head has a large gash out of the side of it.
00:14:52
Speaker
And he's coughing.
00:14:54
Speaker
I see two hands bouncing in Zencaster right now.
00:14:58
Speaker
Okay, my hand was up first.
00:15:01
Speaker
How does the skeleton bleed?
00:15:03
Speaker
Yeah, that's the same.
00:15:04
Speaker
We're on the same boat.
00:15:06
Speaker
Same question.
00:15:07
Speaker
It's claymation and it's my story.
00:15:10
Speaker
Okay, that's fair.
00:15:11
Speaker
That's all I need.
00:15:14
Speaker
It's bone marrow.
00:15:17
Speaker
No, just bone meal.
00:15:18
Speaker
Claymation, remember?
00:15:22
Speaker
Oh my god, this... I'm kind of like fangirling a little bit.
00:15:25
Speaker
That's Jack.
00:15:26
Speaker
That's Jack Skeleton.
00:15:28
Speaker
Breck, fucking get over here.
00:15:29
Speaker
Help me out.
00:15:29
Speaker
It's more like a corpse to me.
00:15:32
Speaker
I mean, I can try, but how do you heal a bleeding skeleton?
00:15:38
Speaker
So much wrong with that sentence.
00:15:42
Speaker
Um, I mean, things can... Also, why are you red?
00:15:51
Speaker
I didn't want to say it.
00:15:53
Speaker
I haven't figured that out yet.
00:15:56
Speaker
It was shocking, but it is what it is.
00:16:00
Speaker
Right now, I really don't care.
00:16:02
Speaker
Well, at least the horns are cool.
00:16:04
Speaker
Dude, I love my horns.
00:16:07
Speaker
Too much information.
00:16:11
Speaker
So horny.
00:16:13
Speaker
I was going to say it, but I decided not to.
00:16:15
Speaker
Your guys banter back and forth, kind of stirs Jack for a moment, and he tries to lift his head up, but can't seem to find the strength to do so.
00:16:26
Speaker
Oh, Jesus, he's alive.
00:16:28
Speaker
Oh, um, uh, okay.
00:16:31
Speaker
There's, there's magic in these worlds, right?
00:16:33
Speaker
Um, I'm just all sorts of creeped out right now.
00:16:37
Speaker
What?
00:16:38
Speaker
Uh, heal.
00:16:40
Speaker
And I cast.
00:16:42
Speaker
What do you think?
00:16:44
Speaker
You're Donald Duck or something?
00:16:45
Speaker
I cast a first level healing word on him.
00:16:48
Speaker
Okay, go ahead and roll your dice for the heal, I guess.
00:16:53
Speaker
That is... Hang on.
00:16:56
Speaker
I've never played a spellcaster before.
00:16:59
Speaker
I need to know what it is.
00:17:01
Speaker
Oh yeah, you're usually just a fighter.
00:17:03
Speaker
I do.
00:17:04
Speaker
Yeah, normally I just punch stuff.
00:17:07
Speaker
What is my dice for healing?
00:17:08
Speaker
He's always either a rogue or a fighter or a barbarian.
00:17:12
Speaker
None of those people punch stuff.
00:17:14
Speaker
Yeah, it's just a d4 plus your spellcasting ability modifier.
00:17:20
Speaker
Oh, that was a three.
00:17:21
Speaker
Plus my spell casting modifier, which is... It's a plus three, so six.
00:17:29
Speaker
Six.
00:17:31
Speaker
So, as you go to cast Healing Word on Jack Skellington, you feel your spell kind of rebound.
00:17:42
Speaker
It doesn't go away.
00:17:44
Speaker
You don't feel like you actually expended any magic.
00:17:48
Speaker
You just feel like
00:17:49
Speaker
Your magic isn't allowed right here.
00:17:53
Speaker
Jack looks up, feeling and seeing all the commotion you guys are making, and he mutters out.
00:18:04
Speaker
Why?
00:18:05
Speaker
Why are you here?
00:18:10
Speaker
Are you here to kill the Gord?
00:18:14
Speaker
The what?
00:18:18
Speaker
The Gord.
00:18:19
Speaker
God, he took my throne.
00:18:24
Speaker
He didn't want to be a king.
00:18:26
Speaker
He wanted to be a... But you're the pumpkin king.
00:18:34
Speaker
I was.
00:18:35
Speaker
I was.
00:18:37
Speaker
Oh, it was so wonderful.
00:18:40
Speaker
And as he's talking to you, you kind of hear in the background behind everything
00:18:49
Speaker
Sounds like high-pitched children in the back.
00:18:53
Speaker
Nope.
00:18:59
Speaker
I'm kicking the first kid I see.
00:19:02
Speaker
Oh, you don't see a kid.
00:19:03
Speaker
All you see are three hands reach out from the blackness.
00:19:08
Speaker
Rip the head off of Jack Skellington.
00:19:10
Speaker
Oh, my God.
00:19:14
Speaker
Oh, okay.
00:19:17
Speaker
This is going to be awkward, but I loot the corpse.
00:19:22
Speaker
Get away from him.
00:19:25
Speaker
Don't you know what Halloween Town just lost?
00:19:30
Speaker
You can have the skinniest pair of skinny pants on your dwarven ass if you'd like to take this picture.
00:19:37
Speaker
They rip horribly.
00:19:39
Speaker
I wear them.
00:19:40
Speaker
I wear it.
00:19:40
Speaker
I wear his suit.
00:19:43
Speaker
I'm just sobbing uncontrollably.
00:19:45
Speaker
I'm just like, come on, come on.
00:19:49
Speaker
I just kind of walk up to you and just there, there.
00:19:51
Speaker
Like you on the back.
00:19:55
Speaker
Hey, look, Jordan.
00:19:57
Speaker
What's this?
00:19:57
Speaker
What's this?
00:20:04
Speaker
I just, I walk over, just smack Matt in the back of the head.
00:20:07
Speaker
Can't you see he's grieving?
00:20:09
Speaker
I was going to say, I cast vicious mockery on Matt.
00:20:14
Speaker
fucking small for you and you look dumb I don't know how to handle trauma it's fine you are now all on this circular platform Jack Skellington's head has just been ripped off and plunged into this doorway that shouldn't be here
00:20:39
Speaker
What would you all like to do?
Confrontation with the Gord God
00:20:41
Speaker
Not go through the doorway that's not supposed to be here.
00:20:44
Speaker
That's for fucking sure.
00:20:45
Speaker
I'm going to go to Eastertown.
00:20:48
Speaker
I'll see you later.
00:20:50
Speaker
Yeah.
00:20:50
Speaker
You're going to try and go to Eastertown?
00:20:52
Speaker
Okay.
00:20:54
Speaker
Sure.
00:20:55
Speaker
All right.
00:20:57
Speaker
You walk up to the Eastertown doorway in the tree.
00:21:00
Speaker
And when you reach to try and open the door to go in, you can't open the door.
00:21:08
Speaker
He's not trying hard enough, and I try.
00:21:12
Speaker
You two both go nuts on this door.
00:21:15
Speaker
One of you with a foot, one of you with a tire iron, but this time the door doesn't open.
00:21:22
Speaker
Bullshit.
00:21:24
Speaker
Call back.
00:21:25
Speaker
You're welcome.
00:21:27
Speaker
Guys, haven't you seen the movie?
00:21:29
Speaker
It's Christmastown.
00:21:31
Speaker
And he goes to open up the Christmastown door.
00:21:34
Speaker
What's this?
00:21:37
Speaker
Jordan, stop crying.
00:21:39
Speaker
It's the exact same thing.
00:21:40
Speaker
You are unable to open any of the doorways on any of the trees.
00:21:46
Speaker
Even Halloween Town?
00:21:48
Speaker
Even Halloween Town.
00:21:50
Speaker
I don't want to go into the black hole.
00:21:53
Speaker
And I approach the terrifying door.
00:21:57
Speaker
It's less a doorway and more of just a pure black pit.
00:22:05
Speaker
God damn it.
00:22:07
Speaker
Can I push Jack Skellington's corpse through the black pit?
00:22:13
Speaker
Now we're thinking like a D&D party.
00:22:14
Speaker
Just with my foot.
00:22:15
Speaker
Just kind of like nudge it in there to see what happens.
00:22:18
Speaker
I won't even make you roll.
00:22:21
Speaker
You nudge while Jordan is crying on the floor.
00:22:25
Speaker
Openly weeping.
00:22:27
Speaker
In the fetal position.
00:22:29
Speaker
You shove his body in there.
00:22:32
Speaker
And you can see it doesn't really...
00:22:35
Speaker
necessarily fall in it looks like walking through a portal it looks like it went somewhere else the body just got up and walked away no you said you kicked it in the thing yeah yeah after i kicked it to just kind of like roll and then walk away i'm confused what you just said you you said you were gonna try and shove it through the thing right yeah
00:22:59
Speaker
And that's exactly what you did.
00:23:00
Speaker
But instead of it looking like the body just fell, it looks like it was sucked in through a vortex or a portal of some sort.
00:23:07
Speaker
Okay, okay.
00:23:08
Speaker
My brain was not comprehending the answer.
00:23:13
Speaker
I see Melanie do this, and I'm like, Jack, no!
00:23:16
Speaker
And I jump through the portal.
00:23:18
Speaker
There it is.
00:23:18
Speaker
Oh, no!
00:23:20
Speaker
Jordan, it's just an animated movie!
00:23:22
Speaker
And I run through it.
00:23:26
Speaker
I kind of like slap my forehead and chase after my dumb ass husband and brother.
00:23:32
Speaker
Just stand there staring at this portal being like, there were so many more options than this, but I guess.
00:23:38
Speaker
Before Breck has an option to react, can I whip my tail out and grab him and pull him through?
00:23:44
Speaker
Yes.
00:23:45
Speaker
I'm just going to say yes to that one.
00:23:46
Speaker
I like that.
00:23:48
Speaker
So many other options.
00:23:50
Speaker
Breck, do you like that at all?
00:23:54
Speaker
I mean, can I?
00:23:56
Speaker
I'm assuming once I hit the portal, I just get yanked in anyways.
00:24:00
Speaker
That's exactly what's going to happen.
00:24:02
Speaker
If you want to try and fight it, you can, but then you're going to be alone.
00:24:06
Speaker
No, no, I'll just go through the portal.
00:24:08
Speaker
Okay.
00:24:09
Speaker
So you all go through the portal.
00:24:13
Speaker
You find yourselves in a somewhat familiar positioning.
00:24:18
Speaker
This, it looks like Halloween town, but it also kind of looks like Christmas town.
00:24:25
Speaker
and Eastertown?
00:24:26
Speaker
It just, it seems like all of the different areas have kind of converged.
00:24:31
Speaker
You look over and you see Spiral Hill, but it's like a weird melted candy cane.
00:24:37
Speaker
It's not just a large hill.
00:24:40
Speaker
You look over at the trio's treehouse and where Oogie Boogie's lair is, and it's covered in Christmas lights.
00:24:47
Speaker
But it's also got eggs all over it.
00:24:49
Speaker
It's like a weird convergence.
00:24:52
Speaker
You're on a long stone pathway that leads into the town square of whatever you want to call this amalgamation of a town.
00:25:04
Speaker
Are we all still together?
00:25:08
Speaker
You guys all go through and you don't fall.
00:25:11
Speaker
You don't do anything.
00:25:12
Speaker
You just land on your feet and it's like you're placed right here looking at this strange visage.
00:25:20
Speaker
Oh.
00:25:21
Speaker
Okay.
00:25:23
Speaker
If we can find the pieces of Oogie Boogie and we take them to Dr. Finkelstein, maybe he can, or to Jack, Jack, the pieces of Jack, take them to Finkelstein.
00:25:33
Speaker
Maybe he can put them back together.
00:25:35
Speaker
I mean, his corpse is right there.
00:25:38
Speaker
Actually, go ahead and everybody roll me a perception.
00:25:41
Speaker
I'll get to you in just a second, Brick. 14.
00:25:50
Speaker
Nat 20.
00:25:51
Speaker
So 31.
00:25:54
Speaker
Oh my god.
00:25:57
Speaker
13.
00:25:57
Speaker
21.
00:25:59
Speaker
Okay, so with the two lower rolls, you just kind of hear that same... Sounded like a couple kids singing a song.
00:26:10
Speaker
But you two, over a 20, you look over and you see Lock, Shock, and Barrel.
00:26:18
Speaker
And they're carrying...
00:26:20
Speaker
the body of the Pumpkin King away.
00:26:24
Speaker
And they're not carrying it up to Dr. Finkelstein's.
00:26:29
Speaker
They're carrying it over into their lair.
00:26:33
Speaker
I think we should probably stop them.
00:26:37
Speaker
Stop?
00:26:38
Speaker
Melanie, what are you talking?
00:26:39
Speaker
Stop who?
00:26:39
Speaker
You gotta look for Jack.
00:26:40
Speaker
Look at the creepiest children they're carrying his body.
00:26:44
Speaker
What?
00:26:45
Speaker
I'd turn your face to look.
00:26:48
Speaker
Those bastards.
00:26:52
Speaker
Before we continue with that, Breck, you rolled a hidden stealth roll.
00:26:56
Speaker
Why?
00:26:59
Speaker
The moment I came out of the portal, I just wanted to kind of just turn and walk into the trees next to everybody.
00:27:05
Speaker
You want to take a piss?
00:27:07
Speaker
Well, no, the plan was to scare the shit out of everyone, but it seemed to work out much better this way.
00:27:15
Speaker
Can I catch up with the three kids?
00:27:18
Speaker
Uh, they are running up that rickety bridge that would lead to the weird bird's cage that they used to go up into their treehouse.
00:27:29
Speaker
We should stealthily follow them.
00:27:31
Speaker
I mean, I have a bow apparently strapped to my back.
00:27:35
Speaker
I could shoot one of them.
00:27:36
Speaker
Yeah, and then you'll miss, and then they'll know we're following them.
00:27:41
Speaker
I'm gonna pop up behind Melanie and be like, I have a bow, too.
00:27:44
Speaker
You need to stop that.
00:27:47
Speaker
And my longbow as well.
00:27:51
Speaker
I draw my rapier and I'm like, aim for the witch.
00:27:55
Speaker
Can I take a shot at the birdcage thing and try to cut the rope from here?
00:27:59
Speaker
It'll be at disadvantage because it's a little ways away.
00:28:02
Speaker
But yes, if you'd like to try and take a shot at it.
00:28:04
Speaker
Instead of that, can I just hit the birdcage itself with an arrow?
00:28:09
Speaker
Would that be at normal?
00:28:10
Speaker
No, it's because of a range issue, not a called shot issue.
00:28:16
Speaker
yeah so I'm going to pull my bow out pull an air out that is glowing green and be like huh wonder what this does and I'm also going to cast ensnaring strike fire away I need to find my freaking there it is that is a 10 plus 9 and 19 and 13 so 19 it'll hit you can roll damage
00:28:45
Speaker
All right.
00:28:46
Speaker
I mean, the damage isn't really what I'm going for.
00:28:48
Speaker
I'm using a strength strike, which is a writhing mass of thorny vines appears at the point of impact, and the targets must make a strength saving throw or be restrained by the magical vines.
00:29:01
Speaker
So what happens when you do this?
00:29:03
Speaker
You shoot at this cage.
00:29:05
Speaker
I'm guessing to try and hit them.
00:29:08
Speaker
You shoot the arrow, and it does hit the cage, and you see your vines, and they start to grow and wrap around it.
00:29:15
Speaker
And as they do, they start to turn into Christmas lights.
00:29:21
Speaker
It doesn't stop the cage from going up, but it does slow it down with the extra weight.
00:29:27
Speaker
So now it's raising at half speed of what it was.
00:29:30
Speaker
Just for my knowledge, how far away are we from lock, shock, and barrel?
00:29:34
Speaker
Oh, it's, I don't know, probably 250 feet.
00:29:39
Speaker
Fuck.
00:29:39
Speaker
Okay.
00:29:41
Speaker
I'm shocked you're trying to shoot lock, shock, and barrel.
00:29:44
Speaker
they have Jack?
00:29:46
Speaker
Is Jack more the body or more the pumpkin head?
00:29:50
Speaker
That's a good question.
00:29:53
Speaker
He can move both independently, so yes.
00:29:56
Speaker
He can?
00:29:58
Speaker
I guess that's right.
00:29:58
Speaker
And since I am dead, I can take off my head to recite Shakespearean quotations.
00:30:08
Speaker
Yes, he can.
00:30:09
Speaker
I was waiting for you to do that, Jordan.
00:30:12
Speaker
Fucking nerd.
00:30:16
Speaker
To be fair, if Jordan wasn't going to do it, I was going to do it.
00:30:18
Speaker
It's one of my favorite movies.
00:30:19
Speaker
I forgot he could take off his head.
00:30:21
Speaker
Look, I already destroyed copyright for this one, so you go right ahead and sing all the songs you want from this damn movie.
00:30:28
Speaker
Oh, if you weren't expecting him to sing...
00:30:33
Speaker
I don't know if I'm such a big fan of this damn movie.
00:30:36
Speaker
Otherwise I wouldn't have made this the base plate.
00:30:38
Speaker
I entered the chat with my name being Oogie Boogie Matt and I started singing the Oogie Boogie song.
00:30:45
Speaker
Quite well, I might add.
00:30:47
Speaker
Thank you.
00:30:47
Speaker
You guys see Breck pulls out his bow and it
00:30:52
Speaker
sparkles green and he shoots this arrow and you can see these vines wrap around the birdcage that they're going up in and you see that it has slowed it down so they're raising much slower as they're getting to the top of their treehouse you're about 250 feet away if you want to try and chase after them okay um are we do you want us to roll initiative for this or no not get one free round and no you guys can just start going i have everything kind of timed out in my head
00:31:21
Speaker
Okay.
00:31:22
Speaker
Do they know?
00:31:23
Speaker
I was just saying, do they see us now?
00:31:26
Speaker
Oh yeah, they definitely are aware of you being there.
00:31:29
Speaker
That's why they were trying to get away so quickly.
00:31:32
Speaker
They weren't expecting to see anybody else.
00:31:34
Speaker
I spread my wings and chase after them.
00:31:38
Speaker
Spread your wings?
00:31:39
Speaker
Yeah, I've got wings.
00:31:43
Speaker
Since when do tieflings have wings?
00:31:47
Speaker
He's a feral tiefling.
00:31:48
Speaker
Yeah, I'm feral, so it's the type of tiefling that I am.
00:31:53
Speaker
Well, I've got 40 movement speed, so I'm going to dash.
00:31:56
Speaker
If you guys are all, are you all going to go after him?
00:32:01
Speaker
Yeah, I would say so.
00:32:03
Speaker
All right, if you're all going...
00:32:04
Speaker
Then I'll say by the time you get up to that rickety bridge that leads up to it, the cage has just gotten up near the top of it, and they're trying to cut through these vines that have turned into Christmas lights, and they are just trying to cut through it so that they can get into their treehouse.
00:32:23
Speaker
I am going to cast Prestidigitation and make it sound like Oogie Boogie is yelling at them.
00:32:31
Speaker
Why did you bring that body back here, you fools?
00:32:34
Speaker
Take it back down!
00:32:36
Speaker
Did you have to clips that hard?
00:32:38
Speaker
Jesus fucking Christ.
00:32:40
Speaker
I was doing a boogie.
00:32:42
Speaker
I'm sorry.
00:32:43
Speaker
That was so good.
00:32:45
Speaker
Okay, I'm going to make a quick roll for them at disadvantage.
00:32:50
Speaker
Okay.
00:32:52
Speaker
They are scared shitless.
00:32:54
Speaker
You can see them, and they start looking around.
00:32:57
Speaker
What was that?
00:32:57
Speaker
What's going on?
00:32:58
Speaker
I don't know.
00:32:59
Speaker
What are you doing?
00:32:59
Speaker
I don't know.
00:33:01
Speaker
And they look down and they see you.
00:33:04
Speaker
Was it them?
00:33:04
Speaker
Could it be?
00:33:05
Speaker
I don't know.
00:33:07
Speaker
Why are you chasing us?
00:33:09
Speaker
Why are you here?
00:33:09
Speaker
Who are you?
00:33:12
Speaker
I'd start flying up to meet them.
00:33:15
Speaker
You do have a 30 foot fly speed.
00:33:17
Speaker
I do.
00:33:19
Speaker
Hey, Nick, I have a quick question.
00:33:21
Speaker
I have a quick answer.
00:33:22
Speaker
Did any of them succeed?
00:33:25
Speaker
No, absolutely not.
00:33:27
Speaker
Oh, darn.
00:33:27
Speaker
Okay.
00:33:29
Speaker
I'm just going to start climbing up the cliff face.
00:33:33
Speaker
I'm just going to wait here at the bottom.
00:33:35
Speaker
You know what?
00:33:36
Speaker
I take back what I said I was going to do.
00:33:38
Speaker
I am still going to fly up to meet him, but either Breck or Melanie, I'm going to grab onto you and carry you with me since you guys have ranged attacks.
00:33:48
Speaker
Was this you?
00:33:49
Speaker
Was it you?
00:33:49
Speaker
Who did this?
00:33:50
Speaker
Who tied up our cage?
00:33:53
Speaker
You're welcome.
00:33:54
Speaker
Give me it back, Jack.
00:33:56
Speaker
Who are you taking up there with you?
00:33:57
Speaker
It's up to you guys.
00:33:59
Speaker
If Breck wants to climb, I'll take you, but if
00:34:02
Speaker
He doesn't want to climb.
00:34:03
Speaker
I'll take him if you'd want to stay at the bottom.
00:34:05
Speaker
I'm staying at the bottom.
00:34:06
Speaker
I don't like those three.
00:34:07
Speaker
I'm not going to name them.
00:34:08
Speaker
All right, Breck, let's go.
00:34:09
Speaker
All right, C-130 engaged.
00:34:14
Speaker
Oh, my God.
00:34:14
Speaker
All right, Matt, are you going to do anything while you see this happening?
00:34:22
Speaker
I'm just near the kids, and I'm just kind of like, all right, give me the body.
00:34:27
Speaker
Well, they're about 30 feet up from you.
00:34:29
Speaker
Oh, 30 feet up?
00:34:31
Speaker
Alright, and I'm gonna fuckin' athletics, or not, acrobatics my way up there.
00:34:37
Speaker
Go right ahead and roll, just cause I wanna see it.
00:34:39
Speaker
25!
00:34:41
Speaker
Yeah.
00:34:43
Speaker
You're able to kinda like just bebop left and right up on this weird curvy house, and with all of the vines and the easter eggs and things around it, you have plenty of handholds and things to climb, so it was relatively simple.
00:34:57
Speaker
And I land right in front of them like, all right, now give me the body.
00:35:02
Speaker
Melanie, from down below, you see these three trick-or-treaters and they are trapped in this cage because they can't get out of it with a probably seven and a half foot tall body without a head.
00:35:16
Speaker
You see your very short brother standing in front of them and your husband is flying, holding Breck by the pant loop.
00:35:27
Speaker
That's not D&D.
00:35:28
Speaker
I don't know what it is.
00:35:31
Speaker
I'm holding Breck by whatever will give him no disadvantage to shoot an arrow.
00:35:38
Speaker
Lock, shock, and barrel.
00:35:40
Speaker
They're turning around just back to back to back making a triangle and they just keep spinning.
00:35:46
Speaker
Look, we don't know what to do.
00:35:47
Speaker
No, we don't have anyone helping us.
00:35:49
Speaker
The Gord God.
00:35:49
Speaker
The Gord God.
00:35:50
Speaker
We have to stop the Gord God.
00:35:51
Speaker
You got to stop the Gord God.
00:35:52
Speaker
Come on.
00:35:53
Speaker
We need your help.
00:35:55
Speaker
Wait, wait, wait.
00:35:57
Speaker
You're... You want to stop the Gorgon?
00:36:02
Speaker
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:36:03
Speaker
So, like, a while ago, years, years ago, Jack, yeah, Jack, he had an idea.
00:36:09
Speaker
He wanted to do Christmas, and it didn't work.
00:36:11
Speaker
We learned real quick.
00:36:12
Speaker
Yeah, we watched the movie.
00:36:14
Speaker
The what?
00:36:16
Speaker
Wait, what?
00:36:17
Speaker
Keep your exposition going.
00:36:19
Speaker
Come on.
00:36:19
Speaker
I point my rapier at him, and I'm like, we know this part of the story.
00:36:24
Speaker
How could they know?
00:36:25
Speaker
It's not possible.
00:36:26
Speaker
There's no way.
00:36:27
Speaker
Look at us.
00:36:28
Speaker
We're residents of Halloween Town.
00:36:29
Speaker
I'm surprised you haven't seen us around.
00:36:31
Speaker
Now fucking tell us what else happened.
00:36:34
Speaker
We've been on a trip.
00:36:37
Speaker
Okay.
00:36:38
Speaker
That flying guy up there 30 feet away is going to come down and kick your ass.
00:36:42
Speaker
Okay.
00:36:42
Speaker
Can I get a group intimidation check?
00:36:47
Speaker
Can I give them advantage?
00:36:48
Speaker
Be like, yeah, from the ground.
00:36:52
Speaker
Look, I'm just going to say, there is nothing scarier in this world than that of a woman scorned.
00:36:58
Speaker
And I'm just kind of imagining you standing on the ground with your arms folded and your eyes up looking at them.
00:37:03
Speaker
So, yeah, you know what?
00:37:07
Speaker
Giving the mom stare.
00:37:09
Speaker
Yeah, all three of you roll with advantage for this intimidation check because of the mother stare.
00:37:15
Speaker
17.
00:37:15
Speaker
Thank you, Melanie, because I only rolled a 5 on the dice.
00:37:19
Speaker
That's a 15.
00:37:20
Speaker
That costs 4.
00:37:21
Speaker
That makes it a 19.
00:37:24
Speaker
A 24.
00:37:25
Speaker
Can you roll less than a 20?
00:37:30
Speaker
I am specifically a Fey Wanderer Ranger, which means I get to add my wisdom to any charisma check I make.
00:37:39
Speaker
Gotcha.
00:37:39
Speaker
So that's a no.
00:37:42
Speaker
Yeah, I'm going to go with a no.
00:37:43
Speaker
Yeah, a hard no on that one.
00:37:44
Speaker
I shouldn't have given you a plus one bow.
00:37:46
Speaker
Okay, so you have these kids just threatened to rights, and it's weird because they actually kind of seem to enjoy it.
00:37:57
Speaker
Oh, this is better.
00:37:57
Speaker
Oh, they fit in.
00:37:58
Speaker
They fit in.
00:37:59
Speaker
They fit in.
00:37:59
Speaker
They're perfect.
00:38:00
Speaker
Oh, my God.
00:38:00
Speaker
This is going to work.
00:38:01
Speaker
This is going to work.
00:38:01
Speaker
Okay, so can you get us out of here?
00:38:04
Speaker
We'll take you to the Gord God.
00:38:05
Speaker
But look, he's...
00:38:07
Speaker
He wanted to do what Jack did, but he didn't just want to have only the one thing.
00:38:12
Speaker
He didn't just want Christmas.
00:38:14
Speaker
He wanted all of it.
00:38:17
Speaker
All of it.
00:38:18
Speaker
And do you know where he came from?
00:38:22
Speaker
No.
00:38:22
Speaker
No, we don't.
00:38:23
Speaker
Not a clue.
00:38:24
Speaker
Not a clue.
00:38:26
Speaker
All we know, he showed up.
00:38:27
Speaker
He put a weird... It almost looks like a pumpkin.
00:38:30
Speaker
It's weird.
00:38:31
Speaker
It's really, really weird.
00:38:34
Speaker
It's like a tall pumpkin, and it's white.
00:38:38
Speaker
Is it a Gord?
00:38:40
Speaker
Well, he calls himself the Gord God.
00:38:41
Speaker
Gord God.
00:38:42
Speaker
Yeah.
00:38:44
Speaker
He didn't want to be a king.
00:38:46
Speaker
I can't tell if you're saying Gord with a D or Gore with an R-E.
00:38:51
Speaker
And I just don't know which one is worse.
00:38:53
Speaker
I think there's a D. I don't know.
00:38:54
Speaker
I can't spell.
00:38:58
Speaker
That brings up a really good question.
00:39:00
Speaker
Like, how do you kids get educated?
00:39:02
Speaker
We're your parents.
00:39:04
Speaker
Do you have parents?
00:39:07
Speaker
Uh, we had Oogie Boogie.
00:39:10
Speaker
That was a bag of bugs.
00:39:12
Speaker
He was a lot of bugs.
00:39:13
Speaker
A lot of bugs.
00:39:14
Speaker
We had a lot of parents.
00:39:15
Speaker
I think you kids are traumatized.
00:39:18
Speaker
I don't know if he counts, guys.
00:39:19
Speaker
Like, this is not great.
00:39:21
Speaker
Your intimidation check has absolutely made them calm down.
00:39:26
Speaker
That's so confusing.
00:39:28
Speaker
Okay, y'all want to bring the cage down so I can kind of hear what's going on.
00:39:33
Speaker
Why don't you just come up here?
00:39:35
Speaker
No.
00:39:38
Speaker
They pull the lever to try and take it down, and it starts lowering very slowly.
00:39:42
Speaker
Oh, right.
00:39:45
Speaker
I awkwardly stand there and wait as it slowly goes down.
00:39:51
Speaker
Also, Melanie, great mic etiquette.
00:39:53
Speaker
I love how you did that from a distance.
00:39:55
Speaker
That was dope.
00:39:56
Speaker
Thank you.
00:39:56
Speaker
Thank you.
00:39:56
Speaker
I literally just pushed my chair away.
00:39:58
Speaker
I was like, let's whistle.
00:39:59
Speaker
Wait, I'm just going to gesture in the Christmas lights.
00:40:05
Speaker
Just disappear.
00:40:07
Speaker
Yeah.
00:40:08
Speaker
If you're going to go ahead and I'll let you dispel it as free action, I guess.
00:40:14
Speaker
So I can stop.
00:40:15
Speaker
You do that.
00:40:16
Speaker
It's concentration.
00:40:18
Speaker
Oh, okay.
00:40:18
Speaker
You enter your concentration, it kind of bounces and it jerks the kids back and forth and it lowers down and gets to the flat part and they come out and they are kind of dragging Jack's body.
00:40:31
Speaker
They're like, okay.
00:40:33
Speaker
So I know it's, it's horrible.
00:40:35
Speaker
It's great.
00:40:36
Speaker
It's so bad in a good way.
00:40:38
Speaker
But so we were going to take it and we were going to take it to Dr. Finkelstein and see if he could fix him.
00:40:43
Speaker
Yeah.
00:40:43
Speaker
We need him to fix.
00:40:44
Speaker
Yeah.
00:40:46
Speaker
You were not going towards Finkelstein.
00:40:50
Speaker
Don't lie to me, children.
00:40:52
Speaker
You think he's... Where do you think he is?
00:40:54
Speaker
How do you know who he is?
00:40:55
Speaker
We've never seen you before.
00:40:57
Speaker
Is he not in the town square anymore?
00:40:59
Speaker
Not here.
00:41:02
Speaker
No, this isn't Halloween Town.
00:41:04
Speaker
This looks like it.
00:41:05
Speaker
This is all of them kind of mixed together like a big pot of stew.
00:41:11
Speaker
I don't trust you.
00:41:12
Speaker
Do you know who stole Jack's head?
00:41:14
Speaker
Oh, yeah, that was us.
00:41:15
Speaker
Me.
00:41:16
Speaker
And me.
00:41:17
Speaker
And me.
00:41:18
Speaker
Wait, so you have both parts of Jack.
00:41:20
Speaker
You ripped his head off?
00:41:23
Speaker
That's what Dr. Finkelstein said he wanted.
00:41:24
Speaker
And then all of a sudden his body showed up.
00:41:26
Speaker
So we're like, hey, we're going to take that too.
00:41:28
Speaker
But where do you think the head originated from?
00:41:31
Speaker
You could have got both if you weren't so greedy.
00:41:35
Speaker
Guys, I'm kind of remembering the movie more and more.
00:41:37
Speaker
And if I remember correctly, Dr. Finkelstein is horribly, horribly evil and shouldn't be trusted ever.
00:41:43
Speaker
Agreed.
00:41:45
Speaker
Yeah, he wasn't like a good guy.
00:41:47
Speaker
Everyone's head just rubbernecks over to Jordan.
00:41:51
Speaker
He wasn't terrible.
00:41:53
Speaker
Him and Jack were friends.
00:41:55
Speaker
He just kind of had his own agenda.
00:41:59
Speaker
I feel like that's Jordan's favorite character and he's just trying to make up for all of his crimes.
00:42:06
Speaker
Oh no, Finkelstein's not my favorite character by any stretch of the imagination.
00:42:10
Speaker
Yeah.
00:42:11
Speaker
Is it Oogie Boogie?
00:42:14
Speaker
Probably.
00:42:16
Speaker
Maybe.
00:42:17
Speaker
A hundred percent.
00:42:19
Speaker
Only because you can do the voice with whatever.
00:42:23
Speaker
So I end up looking at the three kids and going, okay, so if you're taking Jack there, then where's Sally?
00:42:33
Speaker
We don't know.
00:42:36
Speaker
All we know is that we got pulled in here.
00:42:39
Speaker
Jack got pulled.
00:42:40
Speaker
Jack tried to escape.
00:42:41
Speaker
Yeah, he tried to escape.
00:42:41
Speaker
He went up through the big weird black light thing.
00:42:44
Speaker
And then the Gord God, he went up there.
00:42:46
Speaker
He thought he killed him.
00:42:48
Speaker
But, uh... No, you did by ripping his fucking head off.
00:42:53
Speaker
We wanted the body.
00:42:54
Speaker
We grabbed the head.
00:42:55
Speaker
That's all we could see was the head.
00:42:57
Speaker
So we grabbed it, pulled.
00:42:58
Speaker
Oh, pumpkin.
00:43:00
Speaker
I mean, to be fair, he takes his own head off quite a bit, so I don't think that killed him.
00:43:07
Speaker
Do you see the state of his body?
00:43:09
Speaker
He looks pretty fucking dead.
00:43:11
Speaker
I mean, he's a skeleton.
00:43:15
Speaker
He always looks dead.
00:43:17
Speaker
She just slapped my forehead.
00:43:21
Speaker
I mean, he's not wrong.
00:43:23
Speaker
He is a skeleton and he does remove his head.
00:43:25
Speaker
Enough skeleton sidebar.
00:43:29
Speaker
We gotta go kill this Gord God.
00:43:31
Speaker
Skeletons don't bleed.
00:43:32
Speaker
So clearly there's something wrong here.
00:43:36
Speaker
Also a good point.
00:43:38
Speaker
I see that the pumpkin head Jack's head is slowly deteriorating.
00:43:44
Speaker
It does not look like it's holding up.
00:43:47
Speaker
It is deteriorating.
00:43:49
Speaker
And it's pretty easy to tell that there is no life left in either the body or the head.
00:43:56
Speaker
I told you.
00:43:56
Speaker
Can I look around?
00:43:59
Speaker
All right.
00:43:59
Speaker
All right.
00:44:00
Speaker
We got to kind of hurry this up.
00:44:02
Speaker
And I'm going to sling Jack's body over my back.
00:44:04
Speaker
All right.
00:44:05
Speaker
Let's go.
00:44:06
Speaker
I'm going to look over the horizon and see if we can see the doctor's house.
00:44:12
Speaker
Like, I remember what it looks like from the original Halloween Town.
00:44:15
Speaker
Maybe we see it mixed in a strew with all the other holiday shit.
00:44:20
Speaker
You can totally see his, like, lab.
00:44:24
Speaker
It's, you know, large and kind of curved up to the right towards the town square with the large spike on top.
00:44:30
Speaker
But the large spike on top is now a dead Christmas tree.
00:44:34
Speaker
And it looks like confetti lines that are draped across what would have been Sally's window.
00:44:42
Speaker
If you remember that from the movie.
00:44:45
Speaker
I'm being 100% honest with you guys.
00:44:47
Speaker
I don't remember any of the fucking buildings.
00:44:52
Speaker
Absolutely nothing.
00:44:53
Speaker
That's your fault for not playing as much Kingdom Hearts as you should.
00:44:57
Speaker
No, I think you're just fucking obsessed with this goddamn movie.
00:45:01
Speaker
So Lock, Shock, and Barrel watching you guys kind of bicker, they're like,
00:45:06
Speaker
You guys are funny.
00:45:07
Speaker
You're weird.
00:45:07
Speaker
I like him.
00:45:09
Speaker
And they're like, Finkelstein's not there.
00:45:12
Speaker
He doesn't go up there anymore.
00:45:15
Speaker
Take us to Finkelstein.
00:45:16
Speaker
Where do you think we were going?
00:45:18
Speaker
He's down.
00:45:19
Speaker
Down.
00:45:19
Speaker
He took Oogie Boogie's spot.
00:45:21
Speaker
Yeah.
00:45:21
Speaker
Since Oogie Boogie's gone, I mean, he died a long time ago.
00:45:26
Speaker
That's where Finkelstein is now, because it's hiding.
00:45:28
Speaker
He's hiding really good.
00:45:30
Speaker
Just to set the scene, I'm having like a little bit of a power trip right now because I have wings.
00:45:35
Speaker
I'm just hovering over the ground.
00:45:39
Speaker
Show off.
00:45:43
Speaker
Flavor.
00:45:45
Speaker
So do you want to see him?
00:45:46
Speaker
You want to go?
00:45:47
Speaker
Let's go.
00:45:50
Speaker
Yeah, let's let's go.
00:45:52
Speaker
I guess let's go see the creepy man in the wheelchair.
00:45:55
Speaker
So you guys jump up to the top.
00:45:58
Speaker
Those of you who want to jump up there, Jordan, you fly.
00:46:01
Speaker
You guys go up and then you're going to go down that really long, weird tube that they shoved Santa Claus down to get down into Oogie Boogie's lair.
00:46:10
Speaker
That is the only way you're going to get down there.
00:46:14
Speaker
Okay.
00:46:16
Speaker
Do you go down?
00:46:17
Speaker
He can tell God's like, no fucking around.
00:46:19
Speaker
This is the only way you're going.
00:46:21
Speaker
Well, I have to make sure we reach a conclusion.
00:46:27
Speaker
Let me tell you my conclusion with a sound effect.
00:46:31
Speaker
Let's play a game.
00:46:37
Speaker
How many copyrights can we get?
00:46:38
Speaker
How many copyright links do I have to strike in the edit notes of this episode?
00:46:43
Speaker
All of them.
00:46:47
Speaker
I mean, technically, it is fan-made, so you can't really get a copyright strike.
00:46:53
Speaker
Tell that to the mouse.
00:46:56
Speaker
Yeah, it's Disney.
00:46:59
Speaker
I'll sue you!
00:47:00
Speaker
See, that's going to be $500 just because he did the Mickey Mouse voice.
00:47:06
Speaker
Another $700 for Nintendo for using the pipe sound.
00:47:12
Speaker
So do you guys all go down the tube?
00:47:15
Speaker
Yeah.
00:47:17
Speaker
Strangely enough, I don't actually have a trap here.
00:47:19
Speaker
I thought you guys were going to sit here and stare at the tube like most people do at a door.
00:47:24
Speaker
I don't have a tire iron to beat it with, so... That's on you.
00:47:30
Speaker
We should have added one to your character sheet.
00:47:33
Speaker
Just because.
00:47:35
Speaker
So you guys go down the tube.
00:47:37
Speaker
You pop out, and it's not quite the same.
00:47:39
Speaker
There's not the weird vat of whatever Oogie Boogie had in the middle.
00:47:43
Speaker
All of his contraptions are gone.
00:47:46
Speaker
Finkelstein has turned this into kind of a makeshift lab.
00:47:50
Speaker
And you see him roll out...
00:47:53
Speaker
with his strange wife that he created that has half of his brain pushing him.
00:48:02
Speaker
Lock, shock, peril.
00:48:03
Speaker
Who are these?
00:48:06
Speaker
Come on, Jordan.
00:48:06
Speaker
What's your favorite character?
00:48:08
Speaker
Finkelstein.
00:48:10
Speaker
I was just about to say, go ahead, DM.
00:48:11
Speaker
Talk to yourself.
00:48:12
Speaker
God, fuck you.
00:48:14
Speaker
Oh, they're here.
00:48:14
Speaker
They're going to help.
00:48:15
Speaker
They want to take out the Gord God, the Gord God.
00:48:17
Speaker
They want to kill the Gord God.
00:48:18
Speaker
Yes.
00:48:18
Speaker
Yes.
00:48:19
Speaker
I never once said we were going to kill the Gord God.
00:48:21
Speaker
I said we wanted to revive Jack.
00:48:24
Speaker
I'll kill a Gord God.
00:48:26
Speaker
I mean, I have all these arrows.
00:48:27
Speaker
It'd be a shame not to use them.
00:48:30
Speaker
I dropped my dice.
00:48:31
Speaker
I'm sorry.
00:48:33
Speaker
Get out.
00:48:35
Speaker
Finkelstein looks back at his weird makeshift wife that looks just like him and he just kind of motions with his hand.
00:48:43
Speaker
Finger flapping motion.
00:48:45
Speaker
And she pops open her head and
00:48:49
Speaker
he pops open his head and they put the brains back together she falls limply to the ground and now he's got his full brain back oh you brought me Jack was he still alive he was till your stupid little children killed him they're not my children my children would have a brain probably my brain I'd make them yeah you have a problem okay we all have a problem the Gord God
00:49:20
Speaker
Can you bring Jack back?
00:49:21
Speaker
That's all I really care about.
00:49:23
Speaker
Lay his body and lay his head on the table.
00:49:25
Speaker
I'll see what I can do.
00:49:27
Speaker
I'm just going to sling the body on the table.
00:49:30
Speaker
Rock, Rock, and Beryl come up, and they put his head on it.
00:49:36
Speaker
Dr. Finkelstein rolls up to the table he's got, kind of props it up a little bit so he can see better.
00:49:43
Speaker
Oh, okay.
00:49:44
Speaker
Oh, okay.
00:49:47
Speaker
No, no, I can't bring him back.
00:49:50
Speaker
Not like this.
00:49:52
Speaker
But, but if you... He opens his head and he scratches his brain.
00:50:03
Speaker
Gross.
00:50:06
Speaker
Okay.
00:50:07
Speaker
Um...
00:50:08
Speaker
So Jack was messing around again and he has some of my equipment at his house.
00:50:17
Speaker
I kind of need that.
00:50:19
Speaker
If you bring me that, I might be able to bring him back to undeath.
00:50:26
Speaker
You need alive.
00:50:29
Speaker
Sure.
00:50:32
Speaker
Um, would it be Jack's house in this realm?
00:50:35
Speaker
And he kind of gestures around.
00:50:37
Speaker
Or do you mean Jack's house in the actual Halloween town?
00:50:41
Speaker
Oh, you saw the hinterlands.
00:50:43
Speaker
Oh, yeah.
00:50:44
Speaker
No.
00:50:45
Speaker
Everywhere is closed.
00:50:47
Speaker
Everywhere has converged into one thing.
00:50:50
Speaker
And that's where we are now.
00:50:52
Speaker
Those doors can't open until we split the world back.
00:50:56
Speaker
For that, we need Jack.
00:50:59
Speaker
So...
00:51:00
Speaker
in his house, you should be able to get there without running into the Gort God.
00:51:06
Speaker
The Gort God stays in the town square, so if you go around, you should be able to make it to his house.
00:51:11
Speaker
Upstairs in his tower, you're going to find items that are mine.
00:51:15
Speaker
It shouldn't be hard to tell the difference of what's mine and what's his.
00:51:18
Speaker
You're not stupid, are you?
00:51:21
Speaker
Not generally.
00:51:21
Speaker
That's a great description of what we need to find.
00:51:24
Speaker
Just everything.
00:51:25
Speaker
Everything he has.
00:51:26
Speaker
He has pungents and ointments and a couple dead rats.
00:51:31
Speaker
I need... It's specifically one vial, and it has a strange black, purplish fluid inside.
00:51:41
Speaker
It'll look like it's swirling around.
00:51:43
Speaker
Just... If you bring me that, I might be able to bring him back to life.
00:51:47
Speaker
Life...
00:51:49
Speaker
All right, well, let's do it.
00:51:51
Speaker
It sounds easy enough.
00:51:52
Speaker
What could possibly go wrong?
00:51:55
Speaker
God damn it.
00:51:56
Speaker
You just had to say the words, didn't you?
00:52:00
Speaker
Look, the easiest way, go through the graveyard, go under the spiral hill.
00:52:04
Speaker
If you go over that way and over the fence, you should be okay and not run into any trouble.
00:52:11
Speaker
Okay?
00:52:14
Speaker
Okay.
00:52:14
Speaker
All right.
00:52:15
Speaker
Let's go.
00:52:15
Speaker
All right, go.
00:52:16
Speaker
Bye.
00:52:17
Speaker
And he just kind of wheels away and he grabs his weird makeshift wife by the ankle and just drags her body.
00:52:24
Speaker
I want to, like, slide a hand and, like, nick just a random scientific item he has.
00:52:34
Speaker
Go ahead and roll.
00:52:38
Speaker
Ooh.
00:52:39
Speaker
A nine.
00:52:41
Speaker
A nine?
00:52:42
Speaker
Yeah.
00:52:44
Speaker
Hold on, I actually have to make a roll.
00:52:45
Speaker
I wasn't expecting to have to roll against you.
00:52:48
Speaker
Disadvantage, because he's wheeling away.
00:52:50
Speaker
I got a two.
00:52:51
Speaker
I don't know what his modifier would be, but he didn't see shit.
00:52:53
Speaker
Nice.
00:52:54
Speaker
He's intelligent, not wise.
00:52:55
Speaker
Like a weird-looking paperweight.
00:53:00
Speaker
Lock, Shock, and Beryl look at you guys and like, okay, we're going to stay.
00:53:04
Speaker
We're not going to go.
00:53:04
Speaker
We don't like it out there.
00:53:06
Speaker
We didn't want to go get Jack.
00:53:07
Speaker
Yeah, but we had to.
00:53:08
Speaker
Finkel said so.
00:53:10
Speaker
So we're going to stay here.
00:53:11
Speaker
When you get back, we'll get Jack back, and then we'll go kill the god.
00:53:14
Speaker
All right.
00:53:17
Speaker
Well, kids, here.
00:53:19
Speaker
Go play with this, and I'm going to toss them an extra dagger that I have.
00:53:24
Speaker
Another one.
00:53:25
Speaker
They pull out like four daggers each.
00:53:27
Speaker
Oh, Jesus.
00:53:29
Speaker
Yeah, I can never have too many sharp objects.
00:53:32
Speaker
Have fun with that.
00:53:33
Speaker
I mean, I've got like three sharp objects on me right now, so... I don't cut my nails that can be all sharp.
00:53:42
Speaker
I wonder how much Jordan is raging because I can't do the Finkelstein voice with any decency.
00:53:47
Speaker
No, you're doing good.
00:53:47
Speaker
I'm not raging at all.
00:53:50
Speaker
I am listening.
00:53:51
Speaker
Good.
00:53:53
Speaker
With rage.
00:53:57
Speaker
And by listening, he means fangirling.
00:54:00
Speaker
A little bit.
00:54:03
Speaker
I'm glad I can feed your fetish.
00:54:08
Speaker
Okay, guys, let's just go to Jack's house and get this stuff so we can resurrect a character that I can actually stand in this franchise.
00:54:20
Speaker
Okay, are we trying to do this silently, or are we just gonna kinda stomp along?
00:54:25
Speaker
Nah, let's just follow the path, Finkenstein said.
00:54:30
Speaker
We should be good.
00:54:31
Speaker
Yeah, I agree, let's follow the path, but I also agree with trying to avoid this Gord God.
00:54:37
Speaker
If this thing commands enough presence to call itself a god and have everybody here call it a god, I don't know if that's something we want to mess with without Jack.
00:54:48
Speaker
That seems perfectly fair.
00:54:50
Speaker
So you guys leave what would be the treehouse and Oogie Boogie's lair.
00:54:55
Speaker
You cross that original path that you were on, and you walk into the graveyard.
00:55:01
Speaker
And you can see the spiral hill in the background.
00:55:04
Speaker
And instead of the normal yellow moon, there's nothing.
00:55:08
Speaker
There's just nothing in the sky.
00:55:11
Speaker
You can see Jack's house off to your left, towering over most of the...
00:55:18
Speaker
scenery of hollowing down uh as we walk i'm remembering more and more of the movie i'm like i want to test out my flexibility because i remember that the uh characters in this movie were very very unnaturally flexible uh that can be very true go how are you testing your flexibility uh to start out he just takes his hand and tries to bend it backwards slowly
00:55:45
Speaker
You can bend it all the way back till your fingers touch your forearm.
00:55:48
Speaker
Gross.
00:55:51
Speaker
Weird.
00:55:51
Speaker
I just kind of stare at it for a second.
00:55:53
Speaker
I'm like, huh.
00:55:54
Speaker
I don't know if that's useful, but that is very fun to do.
00:55:57
Speaker
Are you guys just going to walk through the graveyard and walk through the spiral hill to get over to Jack's house?
00:56:03
Speaker
Yeah, I would say so.
00:56:05
Speaker
I want to test something while we're in the graveyard.
00:56:07
Speaker
Okay.
00:56:08
Speaker
I want to whistle and pat my leg.
00:56:13
Speaker
Zero, come here, boy.
00:56:14
Speaker
Come on.
00:56:19
Speaker
Bosley!
00:56:20
Speaker
Jordan, what the fuck?
00:56:22
Speaker
Sorry.
00:56:23
Speaker
I think Bosley made up the decision for me.
00:56:27
Speaker
Alright, Jordan.
00:56:30
Speaker
Give me just a raw charisma roll.
00:56:34
Speaker
You're a bard, fuck.
00:56:36
Speaker
Yeah, you didn't think that one through too well, did you?
00:56:40
Speaker
Neither did you.
00:56:42
Speaker
Yeah, you might have woke up your son.
00:56:45
Speaker
Yeah.
00:56:45
Speaker
No, he's drugged.
00:56:49
Speaker
For everybody listening, he's drugged on melatonin.
00:56:51
Speaker
I didn't actually drug my son.
00:56:55
Speaker
Yeah, give him some heroin.
00:56:56
Speaker
He went down real quiet.
00:57:00
Speaker
12 with a plus 3 gives me a 15.
00:57:01
Speaker
Hold on.
00:57:08
Speaker
There we go.
00:57:09
Speaker
Copy.
00:57:11
Speaker
To the listeners, I have to send him a character sheet.
00:57:15
Speaker
Yes.
00:57:16
Speaker
There you go, Jordan.
00:57:16
Speaker
Open it up.
00:57:22
Speaker
That's a lot of dogs.
00:57:24
Speaker
What?
00:57:26
Speaker
You just sent me a whole list of dogs.
00:57:28
Speaker
No, this website just sucks ass.
00:57:30
Speaker
Hold on.
00:57:31
Speaker
No, you don't get blink dog.
00:57:35
Speaker
Homebrew dogs.
00:57:38
Speaker
What about a bear blink dog?
00:57:40
Speaker
What about a ninja dog?
00:57:42
Speaker
I'm going to cut you off.
00:57:44
Speaker
What about a bear?
00:57:44
Speaker
Cut me with a ninja dog.
00:57:47
Speaker
I want a celestial dog.
00:57:48
Speaker
What are you talking about?
00:57:50
Speaker
You guys are all having so much fun.
00:57:52
Speaker
Old sea dog.
00:57:54
Speaker
No, I want a polar bear dog because then I can have Naga from Legend of Korra.
00:58:02
Speaker
Damn.
00:58:03
Speaker
Okay, let's not use that website.
00:58:06
Speaker
There we go.
00:58:07
Speaker
Wild dog.
00:58:09
Speaker
Hot dog.
00:58:10
Speaker
Copy.
00:58:11
Speaker
Alright, Jordan, try this link now.
00:58:16
Speaker
Yes, that worked.
00:58:18
Speaker
But that means everyone.
00:58:20
Speaker
Hey, you know what?
00:58:20
Speaker
I have zero, so I'm happy.
00:58:22
Speaker
There you go.
00:58:24
Speaker
You now have a ghost dog.
00:58:26
Speaker
I will add barking sounds in.
00:58:28
Speaker
Just use Bosley's sound bit.
00:58:30
Speaker
He gave you a good one.
00:58:31
Speaker
Ha ha ha!
00:58:34
Speaker
I thought it was a sound bite until I was reactive.
00:58:39
Speaker
So as you guys are going and Jordan calls out for Zero.
00:58:44
Speaker
Do not whistle again.
00:58:45
Speaker
I swear to God, I'll come down there and punch you in the face.
00:58:49
Speaker
Zero pops out of the ground and just, huh?
00:58:53
Speaker
What the fuck?
00:58:56
Speaker
And is just looking at you like you called me.
00:59:01
Speaker
Oh, good boy, Zero.
00:59:04
Speaker
Come on, bud.
00:59:05
Speaker
We're going to go help your dad.
00:59:10
Speaker
Breathing noises.
00:59:14
Speaker
Breathing noises.
00:59:15
Speaker
Okay.
00:59:16
Speaker
So you guys go and you're heading to Jack's house.
00:59:19
Speaker
You guys kind of hop the fence and whatnot.
00:59:22
Speaker
He told you to stay off the main path.
00:59:24
Speaker
So you hop the fence near his house.
00:59:26
Speaker
Zero just kind of walks through it.
00:59:29
Speaker
Jordan probably flies over it, I imagine.
00:59:31
Speaker
Mm-hmm.
00:59:33
Speaker
Matt, does your four foot wide self just walk through the rock?
00:59:37
Speaker
Oh, yeah.
00:59:38
Speaker
Yep.
00:59:38
Speaker
So you guys, like I said, you get over the fence one way or another, and then Zero just walks through it.
00:59:45
Speaker
And you are standing at the front steps up to Jack's house.
00:59:51
Speaker
Excuse me.
00:59:53
Speaker
Yes?
00:59:53
Speaker
Zero doesn't have feet.
00:59:55
Speaker
He flies through it.
00:59:56
Speaker
Thank you.
00:59:57
Speaker
He hovers.
00:59:58
Speaker
He has a permanent levitation spell cast on him, so he can't fly, fly.
01:00:03
Speaker
but he can levitate and move.
01:00:06
Speaker
He can fly.
01:00:06
Speaker
DM ruling.
01:00:10
Speaker
Okay, fair.
01:00:14
Speaker
Yeah.
01:00:15
Speaker
Wow, it's happening to you.
01:00:17
Speaker
That's weird.
01:00:18
Speaker
You know, he only heads Jack's sleigh, but yeah, yeah, can't fly.
01:00:23
Speaker
Yeah, okay.
01:00:24
Speaker
Sure.
01:00:26
Speaker
Do you like having a ghost dog?
01:00:27
Speaker
Maybe when he levels up.
01:00:28
Speaker
Yes.
01:00:29
Speaker
Don't take my ghost dog.
01:00:30
Speaker
Yeah, that's what I thought.
01:00:32
Speaker
Alright, so you guys are standing at the steps except for Zero, who is... You know what?
01:00:36
Speaker
Probably you and Zero are fucking floating.
01:00:39
Speaker
Accurate.
01:00:40
Speaker
Yeah, nailed it.
01:00:42
Speaker
Well, we're here, guys.
01:00:43
Speaker
Let's go to the front door.
01:00:46
Speaker
Can I get everybody to roll me an insight check, please?
01:00:54
Speaker
No.
01:00:54
Speaker
You know, I might not actually be good at that one.
01:00:57
Speaker
I'm not actually good at that one.
01:00:59
Speaker
Eighteen.
01:01:01
Speaker
Never mind, I'm good at that.
01:01:03
Speaker
25.
01:01:03
Speaker
25!
01:01:03
Speaker
Fuck you guys!
01:01:09
Speaker
Nat 1.
01:01:09
Speaker
Oh no!
01:01:11
Speaker
Good!
01:01:12
Speaker
Someone that was under 20.
01:01:14
Speaker
You know what?
01:01:15
Speaker
Actually, because of your character, Jordan, you can roll this one at advantage.
01:01:22
Speaker
Oh, thank you.
01:01:25
Speaker
Nat 1.
01:01:27
Speaker
You're joking.
01:01:28
Speaker
Are you serious?
01:01:29
Speaker
Yeah.
01:01:31
Speaker
All of you, except for the fan of this world, notice that Zero does not look like he wants to go into the house.
01:01:44
Speaker
Jordan, there's something wrong with your dog.
01:01:47
Speaker
Come on, boy.
01:01:47
Speaker
We got to go find Finkelstein's stuff so we can resurrect Jack.
01:01:54
Speaker
And he's doing circles, and then he points his nose over to the town hall.
01:02:01
Speaker
There's nothing at the town hall.
01:02:02
Speaker
Finkelstein said his stuff is here.
01:02:04
Speaker
Let's go.
01:02:07
Speaker
Give me a persuasion check.
01:02:09
Speaker
Come on, let's do a third nat one in a row.
01:02:16
Speaker
Do it, do it.
01:02:19
Speaker
Shout out to the two crew.
01:02:23
Speaker
But with a plus nine, that equals an 11.
01:02:26
Speaker
An 11 is not going to do it.
01:02:30
Speaker
and Zero is going to kind of nose at you and then nose towards Jack's house, and then Zero takes off towards the town hall.
01:02:43
Speaker
Wait, Zero, what the... Guys, you find the stuff here.
01:02:48
Speaker
I'm going to go see what's going on with Zero.
01:02:50
Speaker
Why?
01:02:51
Speaker
Who cares?
01:02:51
Speaker
Let's get the shit to bring Jack back.
01:02:56
Speaker
You would know that there's not really anything that can happen to Zero.
01:03:00
Speaker
being an actual ghost.
01:03:04
Speaker
Is he going to die?
01:03:06
Speaker
No, but the way he's flying off makes it seem like he wants us to see something.
01:03:11
Speaker
He did nudge you towards Jack's house, not towards the town hall.
01:03:16
Speaker
Oh, okay.
01:03:16
Speaker
He's basically scared shitless.
01:03:20
Speaker
Yeah.
01:03:21
Speaker
Yeah, that's about a nat 20 on her insight.
01:03:24
Speaker
25, thank you.
01:03:25
Speaker
Nice.
01:03:29
Speaker
Sorry, Zero.
01:03:30
Speaker
Welcome.
01:03:31
Speaker
I kind of say this under my breath, I'm like, I'll call you back after we're out, buddy.
01:03:36
Speaker
I open the door.
01:03:37
Speaker
It cracks open.
01:03:44
Speaker
As it should.
01:03:46
Speaker
And just inside the house, it is just black.
01:03:49
Speaker
There are no candles lit, no lanterns lit.
01:03:52
Speaker
It is just black inside this house.
01:03:55
Speaker
Um, I think I have dark edition.
01:03:59
Speaker
I cast fireball.
01:04:01
Speaker
Jordan!
01:04:02
Speaker
I'm kidding.
01:04:03
Speaker
I don't have fireball.
01:04:08
Speaker
Does anybody have a way to light anything?
01:04:11
Speaker
There are candles and lanterns around the house.
01:04:14
Speaker
I mean, I do have firebolt.
01:04:17
Speaker
I have prestidigitation.
01:04:19
Speaker
Can't that make a light?
01:04:21
Speaker
Firebolt and prestidigitation.
01:04:23
Speaker
If you guys want to go around the house and start lighting things up, you can absolutely do that.
01:04:28
Speaker
Okay.
01:04:28
Speaker
Cool.
01:04:30
Speaker
I grab a candle and be like, here, light this.
01:04:33
Speaker
I light it with my firebolt gently.
01:04:38
Speaker
I feel like I have, like, be very specific on saying gently.
01:04:43
Speaker
Um, roll a sleight of hand.
01:04:45
Speaker
Oh, God.
01:04:46
Speaker
Fuck.
01:04:48
Speaker
Do I do it to not get burned?
01:04:50
Speaker
No, this is for Melanie.
01:04:52
Speaker
Hang on.
01:04:55
Speaker
Don't fuck up.
01:04:57
Speaker
She shouldn't.
01:04:58
Speaker
What is sleight of hand?
01:05:00
Speaker
Dex!
01:05:01
Speaker
It's a skill.
01:05:03
Speaker
And I don't know if you have proficiency in it or not.
01:05:08
Speaker
I do.
01:05:08
Speaker
It's a plus eight.
01:05:12
Speaker
It's a fifteen.
01:05:13
Speaker
A fifteen?
01:05:14
Speaker
Okay.
01:05:15
Speaker
You do your firebolt and you don't just hit the wick, you kind of hit the whole top so you melt quite a bit of the candle down, but you light it.
01:05:23
Speaker
Okay.
01:05:24
Speaker
But don't burn his hand, right?
01:05:26
Speaker
No, no.
01:05:27
Speaker
That was a tenor blow.
01:05:28
Speaker
Okay.
01:05:31
Speaker
So you guys go around the house.
01:05:32
Speaker
You're lighting it up.
01:05:34
Speaker
Finkelstein said specifically that you were going to be able to find what he had of his up in Jack's tower.
01:05:42
Speaker
So I'm guessing you're going to go up the stairs?
01:05:45
Speaker
Yeah.
01:05:45
Speaker
Yeah.
01:05:46
Speaker
All right.
01:05:47
Speaker
Yeah.
01:05:47
Speaker
So you guys go up.
01:05:49
Speaker
What's the marching order?
01:05:51
Speaker
It's a single wide stairway.
01:05:54
Speaker
I'll go first since I've got the fastest walking speed.
01:06:00
Speaker
I'll go behind Matt.
01:06:04
Speaker
I'll go above everybody.
01:06:05
Speaker
Oh, shut up with your fucking wings.
01:06:07
Speaker
You and your fucking flying.
01:06:10
Speaker
I'll go behind Melanie.
01:06:11
Speaker
Okay.
01:06:12
Speaker
So short, fat, and stubby goes first.
01:06:14
Speaker
So you guys can all kind of see over his head.
01:06:18
Speaker
You made yourself a four.
01:06:19
Speaker
You are his wife.
01:06:21
Speaker
Is it Kane or Matt?
01:06:23
Speaker
It's Gibson.
01:06:26
Speaker
Oh, sorry, I was looking at the wrong name.
01:06:27
Speaker
Okay, Mr. Iron Toe, who is four feet wide, as he is four feet tall.
01:06:35
Speaker
Don't forget it.
01:06:36
Speaker
I should have given you guys sanity, because this would blow your mind.
01:06:39
Speaker
Wrong game.
01:06:43
Speaker
Oh no, there's a sanity system in D&D.
01:06:46
Speaker
No, I refuse.
01:06:50
Speaker
So, as you guys go up, and...
01:06:53
Speaker
Matt Gibson, as you go up and you open the door into Jack's tower, I need you to roll me a perception check.
01:07:07
Speaker
Just Matt or all of us?
01:07:08
Speaker
19.
01:07:09
Speaker
Just Matt, because he's up front.
01:07:11
Speaker
19.
01:07:13
Speaker
When you open it, it's not lit up, so it's very dark in there, but just like what Finkelstein said...
01:07:21
Speaker
You see on a table this strange black purplish fluid and it's glowing almost in the same light that all of you saw that sucked you into this world to begin with.
01:07:37
Speaker
Oh, that must be what he was talking about.
01:07:39
Speaker
And I walk over and try to grab it.
01:07:40
Speaker
Okay.
01:07:44
Speaker
I'll go over with him.
01:07:46
Speaker
I'm just going to stay in the doorway.
01:07:48
Speaker
Okay.
01:07:50
Speaker
I guess I'll just stand in the room somewhere.
01:07:55
Speaker
Kind of just looking around.
01:07:58
Speaker
So you see this vial and the weird black light that radiates from it.
01:08:05
Speaker
Matt, you grab it and you try and pick it up and it won't move.
01:08:12
Speaker
Is this like a sword in the stone kind of thing where only one person can pick it up?
01:08:18
Speaker
Uh, you would have to go over there and investigate it to find out.
01:08:21
Speaker
God damn it.
01:08:22
Speaker
I'll investigate it.
01:08:24
Speaker
All right.
01:08:25
Speaker
If you guys all want to, you're all more than welcome to go up to it and investigate it together.
01:08:29
Speaker
I'll do it as a group check.
01:08:30
Speaker
So if the average beats, then it'll be good for all of you.
01:08:35
Speaker
Okay.
01:08:37
Speaker
Ooh.
01:08:37
Speaker
Investigation's a plus 10.
01:08:38
Speaker
So that's a natural or unnatural 19.
01:08:42
Speaker
Mine's a dirty six.
01:08:45
Speaker
It's a 10 for me.
01:08:46
Speaker
22 for me.
01:08:48
Speaker
All right.
01:08:50
Speaker
You guys, as an overall beat the average.
01:08:54
Speaker
You can thank Jordan for that above a 20.
01:08:58
Speaker
So you're watching and you guys are trying to figure out how it is you're going to move this thing.
01:09:04
Speaker
Every time one of you touches it, a little bit more color is radiating from it.
01:09:11
Speaker
Jordan, when you touch it, a little crimson color starts radiating from the fluid inside.
01:09:17
Speaker
Matt, you, it's green.
01:09:18
Speaker
Breck, it's blue.
01:09:21
Speaker
Melanie, when you go up to touch it, you can see all these colors converging as everybody is touching this vial.
01:09:31
Speaker
Are you going to touch it while everyone else is as well?
01:09:34
Speaker
Yes.
01:09:34
Speaker
Yes.
01:09:38
Speaker
The moment all four of you come into contact with this vial of fluid, much like a Harry Potter portkey, the stopper pops out and you all get whizzed down inside of this little vial.
01:09:55
Speaker
I mean, no.
01:09:59
Speaker
Malina never took her hand off the other page.
01:10:00
Speaker
She can go back.
01:10:02
Speaker
Oh, I am so glad that I'm the one who can retcon things.
01:10:08
Speaker
So you all get vortexed into this little vial.
01:10:12
Speaker
And you can't really see out, but you're able to feel movement.
01:10:19
Speaker
Somebody has come into the room and they've picked up the vial and they're carrying it down.
01:10:26
Speaker
And can I get a perception check from everybody?
01:10:32
Speaker
Okay, guys, I don't know about you, but I'm done getting sucked into weird portals for the day.
01:10:38
Speaker
I agree.
01:10:40
Speaker
This is too much for me.
01:10:43
Speaker
Unnatural 20.
01:10:44
Speaker
I mean, I'm still not convinced I'm not asleep.
01:10:48
Speaker
That's a 29.
01:10:50
Speaker
Okay.
01:10:51
Speaker
Mine's an unnatural 20 as well.
01:10:53
Speaker
Ooh.
01:10:54
Speaker
So, Matt, was it you that rolled in the single digits?
01:10:58
Speaker
Uh, yeah.
01:10:59
Speaker
You don't notice dip.
01:11:01
Speaker
Um, but the rest of you here...
01:11:06
Speaker
A very faint sound of just... God damn these fucking kids!
01:11:18
Speaker
Take all the new people to the Gord King.
01:11:22
Speaker
He will kill them, he will eat them, gain their power, yay!
01:11:25
Speaker
Yay!
01:11:28
Speaker
I knew I should have kicked those kids when I saw them.
01:11:32
Speaker
I mean, in general, I'm not for child murder, but does everyone agree maybe we make an exception?
01:11:39
Speaker
Who said they're actually children?
01:11:40
Speaker
They look like demons to me, so let's fucking murder them.
01:11:43
Speaker
Ooh, you have a good point.
01:11:47
Speaker
So you don't get carried for very long.
01:11:49
Speaker
It's not really sloshing.
01:11:50
Speaker
You just hear them singing their little tune.
01:11:53
Speaker
You can tell they're making it up as they go, and they didn't pre-write any of it.
01:11:57
Speaker
Um...
01:11:59
Speaker
All of a sudden, the stopper comes out.
01:12:03
Speaker
And the four of you are on the ground in front of the town hall.
01:12:10
Speaker
Are we like tiny or are we like normal size?
01:12:14
Speaker
Nope.
01:12:14
Speaker
You are back to your normal size.
01:12:16
Speaker
Lock, shock, and barrel are nowhere to be seen.
01:12:20
Speaker
But all you can see is over in front of the fountain that's in front of the town hall.
01:12:29
Speaker
You see this strange hunched over creature and you just see blood all around him.
01:12:40
Speaker
The fountain is running full of blood and you just hear sounds of gnashing teeth and crunching bones and liquid falling to the ground.
01:12:56
Speaker
Roll sanity.
01:12:58
Speaker
Do I need to say it?
01:13:00
Speaker
Gross!
01:13:05
Speaker
What modifier do I have for sanity?
01:13:07
Speaker
Probably a negative 20, yeah.
01:13:09
Speaker
Okay, good.
01:13:10
Speaker
So, you hear all of this.
01:13:14
Speaker
And this figure, you see it stand up very slowly.
01:13:21
Speaker
Its arms, almost like they're coming out of the front of his shoulders.
01:13:27
Speaker
It stands up
01:13:28
Speaker
arms down to the ground.
01:13:31
Speaker
And then you hear a sickening crack as the head of this hunched over creature completely flips backwards, upside down, a very tall white gourd.
01:13:44
Speaker
And you can see a mouth as wide as the gourd itself is.
01:13:51
Speaker
So probably about eight inches wide.
01:13:54
Speaker
And this thing's head just snaps back and looks at you.
01:13:58
Speaker
giant gnarled teeth covered in blood and pink fur.
01:14:04
Speaker
Ow!
01:14:05
Speaker
Look who's here!
01:14:09
Speaker
Hi!
01:14:12
Speaker
Are you hungry?
01:14:14
Speaker
I think some of the Easter Bunny has left.
01:14:16
Speaker
I immediately shoot an arrow at its face.
01:14:23
Speaker
I was going to say, is he wearing anything that's metal?
01:14:27
Speaker
You will find out after you roll initiative.
01:14:31
Speaker
After this commercial break.
01:14:39
Speaker
Damn it.
01:14:41
Speaker
I get a 22.
01:14:43
Speaker
22.
01:14:44
Speaker
24.
01:14:45
Speaker
Fuck, my initiative order only goes up to 24.
01:14:49
Speaker
16.
01:14:49
Speaker
10 for me.
01:14:50
Speaker
Okay.
01:14:59
Speaker
okay and then melanie what was yours again 22 20 22 and then 24 for you matt yep do i get to roll initiative for zero zero is nowhere to be seen that fucking scaredy dog sorry i don't have my dry erase board anymore because i have given that to my daughter
01:15:26
Speaker
Okay, so because Melanie said it right away, I will let you have one surprise round so you can take one shot at this thing with your longbow.
01:15:37
Speaker
Okay.
01:15:39
Speaker
Don't fucking fail me, Dice.
01:15:43
Speaker
That's a 24.
01:15:46
Speaker
That's a 24.
01:15:47
Speaker
Actually, that's a 25.
01:15:50
Speaker
25?
01:15:50
Speaker
A 25 will hit.
01:15:51
Speaker
Go ahead and roll damage.
01:15:53
Speaker
No sneak attack.
01:15:54
Speaker
This thing is looking right at you.
01:15:56
Speaker
I was gonna ask if I could sneak attack it, but since he's looking at me, it doesn't really work.
01:16:01
Speaker
Uh, wouldn't she still get sneak attack because she's standing next to friendlies?
01:16:05
Speaker
No, the friendlies need to be up against it.
01:16:08
Speaker
Oh, you're right, you're right.
01:16:10
Speaker
So that's eight damage already.
01:16:14
Speaker
Eight damage.
01:16:16
Speaker
Come on, Mechanical Pencil, don't break any more lead.
01:16:20
Speaker
Eight.
01:16:21
Speaker
Okay.
01:16:21
Speaker
Okay.
01:16:22
Speaker
Top of the order is the Gord God.
01:16:27
Speaker
It looks as the arrow shoots and it plunges right into the upper shoulder of this thing.
01:16:33
Speaker
Its head is still tilted backwards at you.
01:16:36
Speaker
Why?
01:16:39
Speaker
I offered you money.
01:16:42
Speaker
Because you're creepy as fuck, that's why.
01:16:45
Speaker
I don't trust you.
01:16:46
Speaker
No, no.
01:16:48
Speaker
Mother doesn't like that.
01:16:50
Speaker
Mother doesn't like this.
01:16:53
Speaker
And you are going to be attacked by this thing's strange arm.
01:17:01
Speaker
It kind of whips backwards at you.
01:17:06
Speaker
Does a 16 hit you?
01:17:08
Speaker
No, it does not.
01:17:10
Speaker
16 doesn't hit.
01:17:15
Speaker
As its arm whips right over your shoulder and you're watching it, its head shoots out.
01:17:21
Speaker
Its neck extends like rubber.
01:17:25
Speaker
Does a 24 hit you?
01:17:27
Speaker
Unfortunately, that will hit me.
01:17:31
Speaker
Okay.
01:17:33
Speaker
So this thing is going to roll its damage on you.
01:17:39
Speaker
You're going to take 26 fight damage.
01:17:42
Speaker
Holy fuck.
01:17:48
Speaker
Ah, you do taste good too.
01:17:50
Speaker
This is gonna be fun.
01:17:53
Speaker
Touch me.
01:17:58
Speaker
After that is going to be Matt.
01:18:02
Speaker
Right.
01:18:03
Speaker
Well, after I see the Gord God just took a bite out of Mel, I'm like, oh lord, that was terrifying.
01:18:13
Speaker
And, uh...
01:18:15
Speaker
You see, I get, my body gets possessed, and eyes get rolled back, and you see these, like, ghostly hands, or ghostly arms, uh, floating above me, and I just start punching the shit out of them.
01:18:29
Speaker
Oh, I want that!
01:18:34
Speaker
Ooh, a crit!
01:18:36
Speaker
Well, that'll hit.
01:18:39
Speaker
How do we do, how are we doing crits in this?
01:18:43
Speaker
Uh, you're just gonna roll the damage dice twice.
01:18:45
Speaker
Gotcha.
01:18:48
Speaker
Ready.
01:18:52
Speaker
I just realized that I have uncanny dodge as a reaction.
01:18:58
Speaker
You can half your damage if you'd like.
01:19:00
Speaker
I will let you retcon that.
01:19:02
Speaker
Okay, cool.
01:19:03
Speaker
Thanks.
01:19:04
Speaker
14 bludgeoning damage.
01:19:06
Speaker
14 bludgeoning damage.
01:19:07
Speaker
Okay.
01:19:09
Speaker
And that was the first attack.
01:19:11
Speaker
I'm gonna attack...
01:19:13
Speaker
Second time.
01:19:17
Speaker
That is a 22 to hit.
01:19:21
Speaker
A 22 would hit, but he's going to use his reaction to cast shield, bumping his AC up to 23 until the end of the round.
01:19:31
Speaker
This motherfucker.
01:19:32
Speaker
And now he has to do a dex saving throw of DC 14 from my arms of the astral self.
01:19:41
Speaker
Oh, I would roll that.
01:19:44
Speaker
A nat 20.
01:19:47
Speaker
He doesn't take damage from me.
01:19:51
Speaker
Or from that.
01:19:52
Speaker
That's my turn.
01:19:54
Speaker
Okie dokie.
01:19:56
Speaker
After that, it is Melanie proper.
01:19:59
Speaker
Okay.
01:20:01
Speaker
I'm grossed out and creeped out because this thing touched me and bit me, so I'm not happy.
01:20:08
Speaker
Nope.
01:20:08
Speaker
Nope.
01:20:09
Speaker
So, um... Can I cast Firebolt at it?
01:20:17
Speaker
You sure can.
01:20:19
Speaker
Go ahead and roll to hit.
01:20:25
Speaker
That's a 14.
01:20:26
Speaker
That's not gonna fucking hit anything.
01:20:30
Speaker
Nope, a 14 will certainly miss.
01:20:34
Speaker
Um, as a bonus action, though, can I...
01:20:37
Speaker
Is there anything like I can hide behind?
01:20:41
Speaker
Oh yeah, you could hide.
01:20:44
Speaker
There's trees that are around.
01:20:46
Speaker
You have rocks and stones that are all turned over.
01:20:50
Speaker
So there's plenty of stuff you could hide behind.
01:20:52
Speaker
So go ahead and give me a stealth check.
01:20:56
Speaker
That would be a 27.
01:21:04
Speaker
You are absolutely hidden.
01:21:06
Speaker
Sweet.
01:21:07
Speaker
So yeah, I will, you know, cast my firebolt, miss, and then like tuck and roll behind a boulder.
01:21:15
Speaker
Sounds good to me.
01:21:17
Speaker
After Melanie Proper's turn, it's going to be the lair action.
01:21:25
Speaker
I need to roll a d10.
01:21:27
Speaker
You're able to see from over top of...
01:21:32
Speaker
the town hall lock shock and barrel now winged with just they're sewn onto their bodies on their arms on their backs and legs these just misformed wings and they're flying over top of it and they come and they're flying overhead of this gourd god and she looks up
01:21:59
Speaker
My children, you're here.
01:22:02
Speaker
I'm so happy.
01:22:05
Speaker
Them.
01:22:07
Speaker
Get them.
01:22:09
Speaker
And then I am going to need everybody except Melanie to make a dexterity saving throw.
01:22:19
Speaker
Okay, dex save.
01:22:21
Speaker
At 20.
01:22:26
Speaker
I can take a picture.
01:22:27
Speaker
I swear to God, you're going to hate me,
Epic Battle Against the Gord God
01:22:29
Speaker
though.
01:22:29
Speaker
I rolled a nat 20 as well.
01:22:31
Speaker
No, you didn't.
01:22:31
Speaker
Oh, God.
01:22:32
Speaker
I did.
01:22:33
Speaker
I did.
01:22:34
Speaker
I did.
01:22:36
Speaker
I did not roll a nat 20.
01:22:37
Speaker
I rolled a 19 plus 7.
01:22:39
Speaker
It gives me a 26.
01:22:39
Speaker
You all pass.
01:22:46
Speaker
So nothing happens.
01:22:48
Speaker
You don't notice anything.
01:22:51
Speaker
Everything still seems clean, and you see the Gord God's head, without turning the body around yet still, just turns 180 degrees and is now upright, and you hear the bones cracking as it turns up.
01:23:11
Speaker
Interesting.
01:23:12
Speaker
I don't like it.
01:23:14
Speaker
Jordan, it's your turn.
01:23:16
Speaker
I'm gonna fly up to the Gord God with my eyes closed.
01:23:23
Speaker
And once I'm ten feet away, my eyes are gonna snap open, but they're gonna be completely black.
01:23:31
Speaker
And I am going to cast Phantasmal Killer on it.
01:23:35
Speaker
Oh, okay.
01:23:36
Speaker
Okay.
01:23:38
Speaker
What do I need to do?
01:23:41
Speaker
Jenkins, get the fuck out of here.
01:23:42
Speaker
Wisdom save.
01:23:45
Speaker
No, I don't want to.
01:23:48
Speaker
Would you like me to wrap some more for you?
01:23:51
Speaker
No.
01:23:56
Speaker
Gord God needs to do a wisdom save.
01:23:58
Speaker
A wisdom save.
01:24:01
Speaker
Ah, okay.
01:24:03
Speaker
That is a 13. 13.
01:24:07
Speaker
That does not save.
01:24:09
Speaker
So... Target... So, the Gord God is going to burn a legendary resistance.
01:24:17
Speaker
The Gord God can suck my asshole.
01:24:21
Speaker
Um... I would like to use my reaction to use Beguiling Twist.
01:24:29
Speaker
Okay.
01:24:29
Speaker
Uh...
01:24:31
Speaker
Whenever you or a creature you can see within 120 feet succeeds a saving throw against being charmed or frightened, I can use my reaction to force a different creature I see within 120 feet to make a wisdom saving throw.
01:24:44
Speaker
And I'm going to choose Barrel.
01:24:49
Speaker
So Barrel needs to make a wisdom saving throw now?
01:24:52
Speaker
Yes.
01:24:55
Speaker
Let me see what Barrel's wisdom is.
01:24:58
Speaker
It's a nine.
01:25:04
Speaker
Now, Beryl is charmed by me.
01:25:08
Speaker
Also fair.
01:25:10
Speaker
As a bonus action, I am going to give a Bardigan Spiration to Melanie, because she's already taken damage.
01:25:24
Speaker
Thanks.
01:25:25
Speaker
All right, so Mel, you'll have a D8 you can add to any ability check or attack roll.
01:25:29
Speaker
Sweet.
01:25:30
Speaker
Sweet.
01:25:32
Speaker
Is that the end of your turn, Jordan?
01:25:33
Speaker
Yeah, it's the end of my turn.
01:25:36
Speaker
Okay.
01:25:36
Speaker
Sorry, microphone.
01:25:38
Speaker
That is Lock, Shock, and Beryl's turn.
01:25:42
Speaker
You see Beryl is kind of flying in the air and he flies down into the bloody fountain.
01:25:49
Speaker
The other two are, oh no, what's he doing?
01:25:52
Speaker
I don't know.
01:25:53
Speaker
He's scared.
01:25:55
Speaker
And they are going to... Where'd it go?
01:26:02
Speaker
They're both going to make two ranged attacks with... It looks like a crossbow, but it's just kind of made out of bones and hair and flesh.
01:26:14
Speaker
So it's going to be one shot towards Jordan and one shot towards Breck.
01:26:23
Speaker
Jordan does a 25 hit.
01:26:25
Speaker
Oh yeah, that hits.
01:26:28
Speaker
And Breck, will a 19 hit you?
01:26:31
Speaker
Yeah, unfortunately.
01:26:33
Speaker
Okay.
01:26:35
Speaker
Because they're running as a group, it should have been three attacks, but you managed to make one of them kind of go pfft.
01:26:41
Speaker
So each of you are going to take seven piercing damage.
01:26:47
Speaker
Ow.
01:26:51
Speaker
Okay.
01:26:52
Speaker
That is Lock Shock and not Barrel's turn.
01:26:57
Speaker
Breck, it is your go.
01:27:01
Speaker
So I'm just going to look at everyone and be like, you know, guys, I really don't like what's going on here.
01:27:05
Speaker
And do I see something that's like 30 feet up that I could see?
01:27:10
Speaker
Like a tree or a top of a building?
01:27:13
Speaker
You can see kind of broken down trees or in the water fountain.
01:27:17
Speaker
That's probably... Jordan, how tall is the water fountain in Nightmare Before Christmas?
01:27:23
Speaker
It's about as tall as Jack.
01:27:24
Speaker
I know that.
01:27:25
Speaker
It's a little bit taller than Jack.
01:27:27
Speaker
Yeah, so it's probably about 10 feet tall, we'll say.
01:27:30
Speaker
Yeah.
01:27:32
Speaker
I'll pick a tree then, because I want to get up as high as I can.
01:27:38
Speaker
And you would see me just explode into a cloud of bats as I cast Misty Step.
01:27:47
Speaker
Oh, okay.
01:27:49
Speaker
And I'm going to use that one.
01:27:51
Speaker
And then, yeah.
01:27:52
Speaker
While I'm up there, I'm going to turn and just be like, Hey, you, Gordy, I have something for you.
01:28:01
Speaker
And I'm just going to fire two arrows at it.
01:28:04
Speaker
Fire away?
01:28:04
Speaker
That is a 27 to hit and a 14 to hit.
01:28:09
Speaker
The 27 will hit.
01:28:10
Speaker
Yay.
01:28:10
Speaker
That is...
01:28:23
Speaker
11 damage from the bow and three psychic damage as I also use dreadful strikes.
01:28:34
Speaker
I hate to tell you, this thing is immune to psychic damage.
01:28:40
Speaker
You're kidding me.
01:28:41
Speaker
Nope.
01:28:42
Speaker
Okay.
01:28:43
Speaker
Well, I'm also going to make it my favorite foe, which means I get to add a D6 and that's a six.
01:28:55
Speaker
So, 17 damage altogether.
01:28:58
Speaker
17 altogether.
01:28:59
Speaker
Okay.
01:29:03
Speaker
There we go.
01:29:04
Speaker
Alright.
01:29:05
Speaker
After that, we go back up to the top of the order.
01:29:09
Speaker
Back to the Gord God.
01:29:14
Speaker
The Gord God is going to look up at you and just kind of reel its head in and bite the arrow that you put in it and just rip it out.
01:29:27
Speaker
I like it when they move.
01:29:30
Speaker
It's going to be so much more fun.
01:29:32
Speaker
How do you taste?
01:29:34
Speaker
And she is going to launch her head at you and try to bite you.
01:29:42
Speaker
How about a 17?
01:29:45
Speaker
Who are you talking to?
01:29:46
Speaker
You up in the tree.
01:29:48
Speaker
You.
01:29:50
Speaker
Wait, she can attack me 30 feet up in a tree.
01:29:53
Speaker
Yes.
01:29:56
Speaker
Oh, fuck.
01:29:58
Speaker
I'm flavoring things that way you have no idea what kind of thing I'm fighting you with.
01:30:02
Speaker
Okay, yeah.
01:30:05
Speaker
Was not expecting that.
01:30:05
Speaker
That was a waste of a misty tap.
01:30:07
Speaker
Yes, 17 hits.
01:30:09
Speaker
Oh, 17 does hit.
01:30:10
Speaker
Okay.
01:30:13
Speaker
That is 4d12 plus 6.
01:30:18
Speaker
Oh, this is going to hurt.
01:30:19
Speaker
This is what did that damage to Melanie.
01:30:25
Speaker
26 damage to you.
01:30:28
Speaker
Ow.
01:30:31
Speaker
Yeah.
01:30:33
Speaker
And with its second attack for the multi-attack, it's going to launch an arm over towards you, Matt.
01:30:41
Speaker
I'm right in front of it, so it doesn't even launch nothing.
01:30:47
Speaker
Yeah, you guys are... Oh, yeah, you did get right at it.
01:30:50
Speaker
So it swings the arm around.
01:30:52
Speaker
Think like Luffy from One Piece.
01:30:54
Speaker
It shoots past you and then comes swinging back.
01:30:57
Speaker
Does a 13 hit you, monk?
01:30:59
Speaker
No.
01:31:00
Speaker
Yeah, I didn't think so.
01:31:02
Speaker
You just kind of get, like, a tender hug.
01:31:04
Speaker
She realizes she missed.
01:31:05
Speaker
Do you want to be another one of my children?
01:31:11
Speaker
Nah, you ugly as fuck.
01:31:14
Speaker
Oh, that was...
01:31:17
Speaker
That's rude as I'm gonna be.
01:31:19
Speaker
This isn't okay.
01:31:21
Speaker
Calm down.
01:31:24
Speaker
Calm down.
01:31:25
Speaker
And then that's going to be Matt's turn.
01:31:28
Speaker
I'm gonna make you not so calm in a second.
01:31:31
Speaker
And I am going to... How big is this bitch compared to my four-foot ass?
01:31:39
Speaker
If she wasn't... I know, great description.
01:31:42
Speaker
If she wasn't hunched over the way she is...
01:31:45
Speaker
She'd probably be around 10, 11 feet tall.
01:31:47
Speaker
Okay.
01:31:49
Speaker
Can I, like, jump on her back and start punching her in the face?
01:31:56
Speaker
Yeah, abso-fucking-lutely you can.
01:32:01
Speaker
That's what I'm gonna try doing.
01:32:02
Speaker
Is that like an acrobatics?
01:32:05
Speaker
No, I'm not going to make you roll for it.
01:32:06
Speaker
I like this.
01:32:07
Speaker
I like the scene too much.
01:32:10
Speaker
Sweet.
01:32:11
Speaker
I jump up there and I crack my knuckles.
01:32:13
Speaker
Like, all right.
01:32:15
Speaker
I start punching the fuck out of the face.
01:32:21
Speaker
Now that is a 27.
01:32:23
Speaker
27 hits.
01:32:26
Speaker
That is a nine bludgeoning damage.
01:32:30
Speaker
Okay.
01:32:33
Speaker
Punch again.
01:32:41
Speaker
An 18.
01:32:42
Speaker
An 18 does not hit.
01:32:45
Speaker
I'm going to use a key point to flurry of blows to attack two more times.
01:32:50
Speaker
Okay, go for it.
01:32:55
Speaker
That's a dirty 20.
01:32:57
Speaker
That will hit.
01:33:01
Speaker
Eight.
01:33:02
Speaker
budgeting damage.
01:33:04
Speaker
Plus 8.
01:33:05
Speaker
Okay.
01:33:07
Speaker
And that is a 19.
01:33:10
Speaker
A 19 just hits.
01:33:15
Speaker
That's 10 budgeting.
01:33:18
Speaker
Okay.
01:33:21
Speaker
At the end of Matt's turn, this thing's going to take a legendary action, and it's going to try and grapple you, Matt.
01:33:29
Speaker
Okay.
01:33:33
Speaker
With a grappling attack... Oh, no.
01:33:37
Speaker
She rolled a two, so she doesn't even hit you with the attempt to grapple.
01:33:44
Speaker
After Matt's turn, that will be Melanie.
01:33:48
Speaker
Since I'm hidden, would I be able... That's the wrong character sheet.
01:33:53
Speaker
Would I be able to do my sneak attack with a bow?
01:33:58
Speaker
Absolutely, yeah.
01:33:59
Speaker
You can make an attack and you can get sneak attack with that.
01:34:04
Speaker
Alright, so I'm going to attack with my longbow to the creepy-ass bunny-eating gourd lady.
01:34:11
Speaker
Can't read my dice.
01:34:15
Speaker
So that would be... 19 to hit?
01:34:20
Speaker
A 19 just hits.
01:34:24
Speaker
Fuck yeah.
01:34:25
Speaker
So that would be an extra d4 with my d8.
01:34:28
Speaker
Alright.
01:34:31
Speaker
Alright.
01:34:32
Speaker
No, you get 4d6.
01:34:34
Speaker
4d6?
01:34:35
Speaker
Oh shit, hang on.
01:34:39
Speaker
I need more dice.
01:34:44
Speaker
It should be on your sheet.
01:34:45
Speaker
It's either 3d6 or 4d6 for your sync attack.
01:34:47
Speaker
It's four.
01:34:48
Speaker
I thought it was a good problem to have, was needing more dice.
01:34:52
Speaker
Yeah, right.
01:34:52
Speaker
Plus my d8, right?
01:34:55
Speaker
Yes.
01:34:55
Speaker
Cool.
01:34:59
Speaker
That's 13 points of damage.
01:35:02
Speaker
13.
01:35:02
Speaker
Okay.
01:35:04
Speaker
And then as a bonus action, I'm going to think I'll just dash to a different hiding spot.
01:35:18
Speaker
So you want to hide again?
01:35:19
Speaker
Yeah, I want to hide again.
01:35:21
Speaker
Just not in the same spot.
01:35:23
Speaker
So if she looks there, then I'm not there anymore.
01:35:28
Speaker
Sure thing.
01:35:28
Speaker
Go ahead and give me a stealth check.
01:35:36
Speaker
That is 26.
01:35:37
Speaker
26.
01:35:37
Speaker
Okay.
01:35:40
Speaker
You, as far as you know, are hidden.
01:35:42
Speaker
Okay.
01:35:44
Speaker
Sounds good.
01:35:45
Speaker
I'm hiding just behind another, I'm hiding behind a pillar this time.
01:35:49
Speaker
Oh.
01:35:50
Speaker
After that is the lair action again.
01:35:55
Speaker
Mother is going to look around.
01:36:00
Speaker
No, no.
01:36:02
Speaker
I think you'd be stronger children than the others.
01:36:05
Speaker
Um, Beryl!
01:36:09
Speaker
Come here, you little shit.
01:36:11
Speaker
And she's going to extend an arm out and grabs Beryl by the nape of the neck and brings him in.
01:36:19
Speaker
You don't see what happens as her head finally flips back forward, but you hear that gnashing sound of grinding of teeth and bone.
01:36:28
Speaker
as she is going to heal a little bit.
01:36:33
Speaker
Did she just eat Beryl?
01:36:39
Speaker
Yes.
01:36:41
Speaker
Ew.
01:36:48
Speaker
Aw, he was my friend.
01:36:52
Speaker
He was useless.
01:36:54
Speaker
Uh, Jordan, your turn.
01:36:58
Speaker
Pardon the noise, I'm digging out some dice to do what I want to do.
01:37:03
Speaker
Throw caltrops?
01:37:06
Speaker
No, but kinda.
01:37:09
Speaker
Is her mouth open?
01:37:12
Speaker
She's actually not facing you right now.
01:37:15
Speaker
If I kinda skirt around her, would her mouth be open?
01:37:22
Speaker
Probably.
01:37:23
Speaker
She's eating the barrel.
01:37:25
Speaker
He's the chunky one.
01:37:28
Speaker
I am going to get around to a point where I can see the inside of her mouth.
01:37:34
Speaker
I'd say you'd be able to move around there.
01:37:36
Speaker
You're not going to provoke an opportunity attack moving around.
01:37:38
Speaker
Well, I wouldn't anyway.
01:37:40
Speaker
I started ten feet away from her.
01:37:42
Speaker
Okay.
01:37:46
Speaker
So... Upon doing that... I am going to look at the inside of her mouth and choose that as my point of...
01:37:59
Speaker
Oh, my point that I want to do.
01:38:04
Speaker
And basically what I'm going to do is I'm going to upcast Cloud of Daggers at a third level inside of her mouth.
01:38:20
Speaker
I like this.
01:38:23
Speaker
I fill the air with spinning daggers and a cube five feet on each side, centered on a point that I choose within range.
01:38:28
Speaker
The creature takes 44 slashing damage when it enters a spell's area for the first time or on a turn that or when it starts a turn there.
01:38:36
Speaker
And since I'm upcasting it, I get 64 instead of 44.
01:38:40
Speaker
And since I'm casting it inside her mouth, she will carry it with her wherever she goes.
01:38:48
Speaker
Concentration for a minute.
01:38:50
Speaker
Concentration for a minute.
01:38:52
Speaker
Go ahead and roll your 64.
01:39:02
Speaker
3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 damage.
01:39:07
Speaker
15 damage.
01:39:10
Speaker
Wonderful.
01:39:11
Speaker
You did most of the damage back that she healed.
01:39:16
Speaker
Excellent.
01:39:16
Speaker
And then as a bonus action, I'm going to give a bardic to Matt.
01:39:21
Speaker
Thank you.
01:39:22
Speaker
All right.
01:39:24
Speaker
Don't worry, Breck.
01:39:24
Speaker
Yours is coming next turn.
01:39:25
Speaker
I have three of them.
01:39:27
Speaker
Woo.
01:39:28
Speaker
After Jordan's turn, that is now lock shock and not a barrel.
01:39:37
Speaker
Mother got hungry.
01:39:38
Speaker
Oh, well, it happens.
01:39:39
Speaker
We'll make another one.
01:39:39
Speaker
That's fine.
01:39:41
Speaker
And they're going to take two shots at you as they see this cloud of daggers just swarm around the head of their mother.
01:39:52
Speaker
Does a 16 or a 12 hit?
01:39:57
Speaker
No.
01:39:58
Speaker
All right.
01:39:58
Speaker
Lock, shock, and barrel.
01:39:59
Speaker
That's all that they've got.
01:40:02
Speaker
Breck, Yrgo, up in a tree.
01:40:06
Speaker
Yes.
01:40:08
Speaker
So I am going to use my action to cast Bless on Jordan, Melanie, and Matt.
01:40:19
Speaker
So you each get a d4 to add to a saving throw or a attack roll.
01:40:26
Speaker
Oh, thank you.
01:40:27
Speaker
Thank you.
01:40:30
Speaker
What's the range on... No, you can't do that.
01:40:32
Speaker
You're 30 feet up a tree.
01:40:35
Speaker
The range is exactly 30 feet.
01:40:38
Speaker
You are 30 feet up a tree.
01:40:39
Speaker
She is 10 feet away from at least the tree.
01:40:43
Speaker
And Matt is on top of her and Jordan is off to the side.
01:40:47
Speaker
Oh.
01:40:48
Speaker
Yes, I thought she was, like, right under the tree.
01:40:50
Speaker
I didn't realize she could reach even further than 30 feet.
01:40:53
Speaker
Fuck.
01:40:53
Speaker
Oh, yeah.
01:40:54
Speaker
Her head goes... Her head go Luffy.
01:40:59
Speaker
Well... You can hit... I'll say you can get Matt if you do still want to cast it.
01:41:04
Speaker
You could get Matt, but you're not going to be able to get Jordan and Melanie.
01:41:10
Speaker
No, it's not worth it if I'm just getting Matt and myself.
01:41:16
Speaker
So...
01:41:19
Speaker
I am just going to... I'm going to use my... So I have a climbing speed the same as my walking speed, which is 35 feet.
01:41:33
Speaker
Can I keep going up this tree?
01:41:35
Speaker
No, I'd say you're about at the top of it.
01:41:37
Speaker
These trees are all damaged and dead.
01:41:40
Speaker
Like, they're not tall tall.
01:41:44
Speaker
I'm going to bonus action cast Zephyr Strike.
01:41:47
Speaker
Okay.
01:41:50
Speaker
And then I'm going to take my two attacks with one of them being at advantage.
01:41:55
Speaker
Go for it.
01:41:56
Speaker
All right.
01:42:04
Speaker
I am so thankful for that advantage.
01:42:06
Speaker
What is mine to hit?
01:42:10
Speaker
So that is a 28 to hit.
01:42:11
Speaker
And a 25.
01:42:12
Speaker
They both hit.
01:42:20
Speaker
Alright.
01:42:23
Speaker
That is 17 damage on the bow.
01:42:27
Speaker
That is 10 force damage from Zephyr Strike.
01:42:33
Speaker
And I'm going to find the other one.
01:42:35
Speaker
I have so many things I have to roll.
01:42:37
Speaker
Blue is a d6, so I'll just roll that.
01:42:41
Speaker
Three for the favored foe.
01:42:48
Speaker
Plus three.
01:42:50
Speaker
Okay, that actually hurts her a fair amount.
01:42:54
Speaker
You launch these two arrows into her and you can see the wind whipping around the arrows.
01:43:00
Speaker
And she kind of... And cocks her head back full of daggers just around her head.
01:43:11
Speaker
But you can tell she's staring those daggers right back at you.
01:43:14
Speaker
That's for eating my friend.
01:43:23
Speaker
After Breck's turn, that is the Gord God's turn.
01:43:26
Speaker
Now, Jordan, as a fan of your character, you said you made the location of the Cloud of Daggers in her mouth?
01:43:35
Speaker
Yes.
01:43:35
Speaker
Well, she just started her turn.
01:43:37
Speaker
So how much damage does she take?
01:43:38
Speaker
Oh, 15 again.
01:43:44
Speaker
Okay, 15.
01:43:44
Speaker
Hmm.
01:43:52
Speaker
It does taste good.
01:43:55
Speaker
And you hear her just trying to gnash on these daggers in her mouth, blood just dripping down from this face.
01:44:04
Speaker
I want to rule all of these holidays.
01:44:07
Speaker
It sounds so much fun.
01:44:09
Speaker
Jack thought too small.
01:44:11
Speaker
I'm going to take it all.
01:44:13
Speaker
And she is going to attack you, Jordan, because you are right next to her.
01:44:20
Speaker
So she's going to try and give you a punch.
01:44:23
Speaker
Okay.
01:44:25
Speaker
24.
01:44:26
Speaker
That'll hit.
01:44:28
Speaker
Alright.
01:44:29
Speaker
This isn't her bite, so it's not as much damage.
01:44:35
Speaker
That's going to be 15 damage on the punch.
01:44:39
Speaker
Okay.
01:44:40
Speaker
And then, Matt, you're still kind of on her back.
01:44:43
Speaker
She goes to stand up a little bit and she tries to take a bite at you.
01:44:50
Speaker
I also hate to say
01:44:52
Speaker
you're gonna need to take 15 damage from Jordan's cloud of daggers.
01:44:56
Speaker
Wait, is it a dex save?
01:45:00
Speaker
Is it a dex save, Jordan?
01:45:02
Speaker
Or does it just do damage?
01:45:04
Speaker
It just does damage, but it's if you start your turn, I figured her head was bigger than five.
01:45:11
Speaker
Or the first time you enter the area.
01:45:14
Speaker
Yeah, I figured her head was big, so that's why I cast it inside her mouth.
01:45:19
Speaker
It ain't that big, and she's biting him anyway.
01:45:22
Speaker
And does a 22 hit you, Matt?
01:45:24
Speaker
That does.
01:45:25
Speaker
So, yeah, you're gonna take that 15 damage, and you're gonna take the 4d12.
01:45:31
Speaker
Alright.
01:45:31
Speaker
So, how much damage do I take altogether?
01:45:38
Speaker
Go ahead.
01:45:39
Speaker
I'm getting to it.
01:45:43
Speaker
I rolled
01:45:44
Speaker
terribly.
01:45:44
Speaker
You're only going to take 20 damage from the bite attack.
01:45:51
Speaker
So 20 and then 15 as well.
01:45:56
Speaker
Unless Jordan's got something.
01:45:58
Speaker
No, no, no, no.
01:45:59
Speaker
I have something else.
01:46:02
Speaker
Oh, okay.
01:46:05
Speaker
That's going to do it for the Gord God.
01:46:07
Speaker
You can tell looking, she is not healthy right now.
01:46:10
Speaker
You guys have done some substantial damage.
01:46:14
Speaker
All I was going to say is I rolled my concentration.
01:46:19
Speaker
I took 15 damage and I rolled a 9 for my concentration, so it's still going.
01:46:27
Speaker
You rolled a 9?
01:46:27
Speaker
What do you have to roll for concentration?
01:46:30
Speaker
Half of your damage.
01:46:32
Speaker
Half of the damage taken that round.
01:46:33
Speaker
Oh, okay.
01:46:33
Speaker
All right, good.
01:46:35
Speaker
Cool beans.
01:46:37
Speaker
All right.
01:46:38
Speaker
After the Gord God is Matt's turn.
01:46:41
Speaker
You just got bit by a Dagger Mouth.
01:46:46
Speaker
I'm gonna punch her.
01:46:48
Speaker
Actually, wait.
01:46:49
Speaker
I want to try to get out of the range of the Cloud of Daggers.
01:46:54
Speaker
After she bit you, since he kind of put it in there, like, her head whipped God at you and then moved back.
01:47:00
Speaker
So you're not in range of it right now.
01:47:03
Speaker
I'll say as long as you don't punch its head, then I will not make you take the Cloud of Daggers damage again at the start of your turn.
01:47:10
Speaker
Gotcha.
01:47:11
Speaker
Gotcha.
01:47:12
Speaker
I'm just going to start.
01:47:13
Speaker
Well, I mean, what's the closest thing to me that I can punch currently?
01:47:18
Speaker
You're on her back.
01:47:22
Speaker
She's still all hunched over.
01:47:23
Speaker
I mean, think of this as being like just fully arched over, hunchback in Notre Dame, plus five more degrees.
01:47:31
Speaker
All right.
01:47:31
Speaker
I was finding a good angle to hit the hunch on her back just perfectly.
01:47:38
Speaker
Okay.
01:47:41
Speaker
I'm a puncher.
01:47:45
Speaker
That is a 19.
01:47:47
Speaker
That just hits.
01:47:49
Speaker
Woohoo, baby.
01:47:53
Speaker
Nice.
01:47:54
Speaker
It's 11 bludgeoning.
01:47:56
Speaker
And I'm going to spend a key point.
01:47:58
Speaker
Because if I didn't do this as a monk at least one time, I know someone on the internet would get mad at me.
01:48:04
Speaker
I'm going to try to stunning strike her.
01:48:07
Speaker
Aha, yes.
01:48:09
Speaker
What kind of save do I need to make?
01:48:11
Speaker
I believe it's a con.
01:48:14
Speaker
Okay.
01:48:15
Speaker
Yes.
01:48:15
Speaker
Stunning strike.
01:48:18
Speaker
Con saving throw of DC 14.
01:48:22
Speaker
Well, I got a 13, but I'm going to burn a legendary resistance to not be stunned.
01:48:28
Speaker
It's all good.
01:48:30
Speaker
Yeah.
01:48:31
Speaker
The internet would be mad at me if I didn't use my resistance.
01:48:37
Speaker
That's a my turn.
01:48:38
Speaker
That is a your turn.
01:48:39
Speaker
Okay.
01:48:40
Speaker
Okay.
01:48:40
Speaker
Melanie, you're go.
01:48:43
Speaker
All right.
01:48:44
Speaker
She looks rough.
01:48:46
Speaker
Good.
01:48:46
Speaker
All right.
01:48:49
Speaker
So I'm going to sneak attack again for my little hidey hide.
01:48:53
Speaker
And I'm going to attempt to cast Firebolt again.
01:49:01
Speaker
All right.
01:49:01
Speaker
Attempt is the keyword.
01:49:06
Speaker
That's a nat 20.
01:49:07
Speaker
Okay.
01:49:10
Speaker
Oh, and because I like my rules better than D&D's rules, you're going to get sneak attack on that, so you're going to double your sneak attack damage as well.
01:49:18
Speaker
Fuck yes!
01:49:21
Speaker
So, that means I need 2d10s on top of 4d6s.
01:49:28
Speaker
8d6s.
01:49:28
Speaker
8d6s.
01:49:28
Speaker
Oh, so that means I need 4d10s.
01:49:36
Speaker
Yes.
01:49:37
Speaker
Okay.
01:49:38
Speaker
Give me just un momento to grab all the shit I need.
01:49:42
Speaker
There's my 40 times.
01:49:54
Speaker
Six.
01:49:55
Speaker
Seven.
01:49:58
Speaker
I need one more.
01:49:59
Speaker
I need one more.
01:50:01
Speaker
Eight.
01:50:02
Speaker
Okay.
01:50:03
Speaker
You ready for this clickety-clacks?
01:50:12
Speaker
I heard that through the floor.
01:50:13
Speaker
That's the first time you've said that to her.
01:50:17
Speaker
She says it to you a lot.
01:50:19
Speaker
Normally I hear the little bit of a trickle through the floor, but that one was like, Jesus Christ, it sounded like it was coming through the floor.
01:50:26
Speaker
I didn't think all my dice were going to fit in my dice tower.
01:50:29
Speaker
I'm not going to lie.
01:50:32
Speaker
That was all of them going through a dice tower?
01:50:34
Speaker
Yes, it was.
01:50:34
Speaker
I hope you have a calculator handy.
01:50:37
Speaker
I am doing that currently.
01:50:42
Speaker
If you want to just give me the numbers, I can type them in.
01:50:45
Speaker
This could kill it.
01:50:49
Speaker
But I need to give Breck my last bardic inspiration.
01:50:54
Speaker
Are you telling me to accidentally more health?
01:50:57
Speaker
No, no, not at all.
01:51:00
Speaker
That is 47 points of damage.
01:51:03
Speaker
Not dead.
01:51:05
Speaker
No!
01:51:08
Speaker
You whoosh.
01:51:11
Speaker
You're firebolt at her.
01:51:13
Speaker
Ah!
01:51:16
Speaker
Finkle, Finkle, Finkle!
01:51:20
Speaker
We might have to try again!
01:51:24
Speaker
And she is just starting to drip and ooze like a molding pumpkin that has been sitting outside for too long.
01:51:32
Speaker
It's just slowly starting to drip away into nothing.
01:51:36
Speaker
I'm going to take my bonus action and hide behind another pillar so I'm in a different spot again.
01:51:42
Speaker
Stealth check.
01:51:43
Speaker
Hold on, I got to clear my dice tower.
01:51:55
Speaker
All right.
01:51:55
Speaker
Um, that's a 30.
01:52:00
Speaker
You're hidden as well as you know.
01:52:02
Speaker
Okay, good.
01:52:04
Speaker
Okay.
01:52:06
Speaker
Okay, my stealth is literally a plus 11.
01:52:10
Speaker
So, and I just rolled a 19.
01:52:13
Speaker
Oh, well done.
01:52:16
Speaker
All right.
01:52:17
Speaker
After Mel's turn, that is a lair action.
01:52:21
Speaker
Locke and Shock, they see what you just did and then, where'd she go?
01:52:27
Speaker
I don't know.
01:52:27
Speaker
She's gone.
01:52:28
Speaker
Oh, that's not good.
01:52:30
Speaker
And they're going to look up and they see Breck's character up in the tree.
01:52:35
Speaker
What about him?
01:52:35
Speaker
Get him?
01:52:36
Speaker
Yeah, I think we get him.
01:52:37
Speaker
Okay, we get him.
01:52:39
Speaker
I am going to need you to roll a contested athletics against me.
01:52:50
Speaker
Are you sure it isn't acrobatics?
01:52:53
Speaker
100%.
01:52:53
Speaker
Damn it.
01:53:01
Speaker
That is a four.
01:53:04
Speaker
Well, I rolled one for each of the two.
01:53:07
Speaker
One of them rolled a two.
01:53:10
Speaker
So you see shock just flies right past you and absolutely whiffs it and just face plants into a wall.
01:53:18
Speaker
However...
01:53:20
Speaker
Shock gets a 19 on the dice.
01:53:24
Speaker
So you are pushed off of the tree, which you said was 30 feet?
01:53:31
Speaker
Yeah.
01:53:34
Speaker
Cool.
01:53:36
Speaker
You take a total of four falling damage.
01:53:40
Speaker
Oh, well, that's better than I thought it was going to be.
01:53:42
Speaker
Yeah, it's not as good as I wanted it to be.
01:53:48
Speaker
After that is Jordan's turn.
01:53:52
Speaker
Seeing how hurt the Gord Lord is, I am going to take my rapier and make a stabby stab.
01:54:03
Speaker
Stabby stabby.
01:54:06
Speaker
That is a...
01:54:11
Speaker
nine plus one is ten plus eight is eighteen i think that's gonna miss 18s miss mother yeah i'm making sure there's not something i can do i thought there was something i could do ah no it's just for ability checks damn it
01:54:40
Speaker
Yeah, it's just for ability checks.
01:54:43
Speaker
I'm sorry.
01:54:43
Speaker
Nah, it's all right.
01:54:46
Speaker
Bonus action.
01:54:47
Speaker
I'm going to give my last Bardic Inspiration to Breck.
01:54:52
Speaker
Awesome.
01:54:53
Speaker
From the base of the tree, I just kind of grunt.
01:54:55
Speaker
A little late.
01:54:59
Speaker
Better late than never.
01:55:03
Speaker
All right.
01:55:04
Speaker
After Jordan's turn, it is Locke and Shock's turn.
01:55:10
Speaker
This time, I'm going to roll for shock.
01:55:15
Speaker
Nat one.
01:55:16
Speaker
So she's not going to be able to get there.
01:55:22
Speaker
But Beryl is going to be able to try and make it attack on you, Breck, but at disadvantage because they have ranged weapons and you are prone.
01:55:34
Speaker
That is a rule that doesn't come up very often.
01:55:36
Speaker
Yeah, you're lucky I know it too.
01:55:39
Speaker
I'm guessing a 16 doesn't hit.
01:55:42
Speaker
That just hits.
01:55:44
Speaker
A 16 does hit?
01:55:45
Speaker
Yes.
01:55:46
Speaker
Oh my god, they actually get to roll a damage dice for something.
01:55:51
Speaker
Three.
01:55:51
Speaker
Three damage.
01:55:54
Speaker
Enjoy your three damage.
01:55:57
Speaker
With how much you can come in after me, I'm actually getting low.
01:55:59
Speaker
Why do you keep picking on the squishy ranger?
01:56:01
Speaker
You're the one who made yourself very well noticeable.
01:56:06
Speaker
And you did the first real amount of damage, and Melanie's hidden.
01:56:09
Speaker
Because you can't find me.
01:56:14
Speaker
And I'm not doing anything.
01:56:15
Speaker
I'm just supporting you guys.
01:56:18
Speaker
No, she's attacked you and missed.
01:56:20
Speaker
That's true, too.
01:56:21
Speaker
Yeah.
01:56:22
Speaker
So, Breck, it is your turn.
01:56:25
Speaker
All right, I'm gonna get up off the ground and I have to check something real quick.
01:56:33
Speaker
Okay, cool.
01:56:35
Speaker
I am going to move away from the tree.
01:56:42
Speaker
And as I'm moving, I'm gonna make my two attacks.
01:56:45
Speaker
Bring it on.
01:56:47
Speaker
Stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it.
01:56:51
Speaker
That is a dirty 20.
01:56:53
Speaker
Hits.
01:56:56
Speaker
And a 23.
01:56:56
Speaker
Both hit.
01:56:57
Speaker
All right.
01:57:03
Speaker
That is 17 from the bow.
01:57:06
Speaker
I'm going to go over.
01:57:12
Speaker
And then I need my D8.
01:57:13
Speaker
And that is six force damage from Zephyr Strike.
01:57:21
Speaker
Okay.
01:57:22
Speaker
Okay.
01:57:26
Speaker
And a six from Favorite Enemy.
01:57:29
Speaker
That wasn't quite enough.
01:57:31
Speaker
She has three hit points left.
01:57:34
Speaker
And on initiative 26, which is the Gord God's initiative, poke her in the eye.
Defeat and Aftermath
01:57:43
Speaker
No, I'm automatically going to kill her right now.
01:57:47
Speaker
She's starting her turn in my cloud of daggers.
01:57:52
Speaker
Mm-hmm.
01:57:53
Speaker
And since she has three hit points and I roll 6d4, she's automatically dead.
01:57:58
Speaker
So I'll roll it just to be fun.
01:58:04
Speaker
7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.
01:58:07
Speaker
17 this time.
01:58:09
Speaker
Plus 17.
01:58:12
Speaker
So... Do you want to paint a picture or shall I paint this one for you?
01:58:18
Speaker
So, I want to.
01:58:22
Speaker
As...
01:58:24
Speaker
Breck, as you do your last couple attacks, you see her kind of stagger, and she kind of stiffens as the inside wall of the gourd is getting thin enough that the daggers just start finally cutting through, and the gourd just shreds to ribbons.
01:58:47
Speaker
As your daggers fly around and shred this thing to absolute ribbons,
01:58:52
Speaker
You can see underneath it all these different colors.
01:58:56
Speaker
You see some feathers that are covered in blood go flying out.
01:58:59
Speaker
You see some of the pink fur of the Easter bunny.
01:59:02
Speaker
You see a weird green little trinket come out.
01:59:08
Speaker
St.
01:59:08
Speaker
Paddy's Day?
01:59:09
Speaker
Was that really one of them?
01:59:10
Speaker
Fuck.
01:59:10
Speaker
That's weird.
01:59:12
Speaker
You see all these things start spewing out like a volcano.
01:59:17
Speaker
But more than anything, you all are able to see when you look up
01:59:24
Speaker
Something black is coming down from the sky.
01:59:30
Speaker
What is up there?
01:59:32
Speaker
She's dead.
01:59:33
Speaker
Locke and Shock, they're getting out of here.
01:59:35
Speaker
They're out of town.
Return to Reality and Reflection
01:59:37
Speaker
You see Finkel comes down.
01:59:42
Speaker
Again?
01:59:44
Speaker
God damn it.
01:59:46
Speaker
I guess we'll have to try this again.
01:59:49
Speaker
And he's holding the vial that you guys had gotten trapped in
01:59:54
Speaker
that radiates with the same light that sucked you into this world.
02:00:00
Speaker
And he takes it and he drinks it.
02:00:03
Speaker
What the fuck?
02:00:06
Speaker
You see his head flash in that exact same light that you saw when you first got sucked into this world, into your favorite movie, into your fetish, Jordan.
02:00:25
Speaker
This light goes off and you just are blinded again by black light.
02:00:32
Speaker
And all of you
02:00:35
Speaker
Find yourselves right where you were two minutes before the chime ended.
02:00:43
Speaker
Breck trick-or-treating with your wife and your son.
02:00:46
Speaker
Matt at a party with Red Solo Cup in hand.
02:00:51
Speaker
Melanie and Jordan, you find yourselves trick-or-treating, hoping to get to that last house before the end of the night.
02:00:59
Speaker
And all of you...
02:01:01
Speaker
Simultaneously with full recollection of what had just occurred, 759, you begin to hear the chime ring again.
02:01:21
Speaker
What the fuck?
02:01:22
Speaker
And that's where we'll end our Halloween special.
02:01:27
Speaker
We're stuck in an endless loop!
02:01:32
Speaker
That was fantastic.
02:01:35
Speaker
Thank you, everybody.
02:01:36
Speaker
Thank you for giving me the opportunity.
02:01:37
Speaker
I had a blast.
02:01:38
Speaker
That was good.
02:01:39
Speaker
I liked it.
02:01:40
Speaker
Yeah, dude.
02:01:40
Speaker
Thanks for running it.
02:01:41
Speaker
That was fantastic.
02:01:44
Speaker
Hello, everybody.
02:01:45
Speaker
Thank you so much for listening to our Halloween special release.
