Dolion (Willie):

What's up, everybody? It's Will. I play Dolion Adolf, and welcome to our original tabletop RPG game entitled Fallen Star developed by our very own Eric, aka doctor Awesome. Now I wanna let you know that this is a original game. It's not D and D, story that you have never heard before.

Dolion (Willie):

So sit back, relax, and I hope you enjoy, listen to us exploring the world of Serbia. Take care.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. So the morning is there. You guys have had your rest, had some time to, share and obviously, learned some things. So

Melody (Tay):

We learned lots of things.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yes.

Melody (Tay):

Well, I did at least. Yes. I totally missed that part of Lunaria. So

Mara (Jenn):

Yeah.

Melody (Tay):

That was pretty cool.

Mara (Jenn):

Yeah.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It makes, makes it make more sense. I fixed the icon, so Genjiro looks like he's supposed to. Okay.

Melody (Tay):

Can you share your screen?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. I'm gonna share it. I just gotta Mara,

Dolion (Willie):

who the fuck is this guy?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

No. Mara's gonna kick him off the team, like, you're off the team. Like, what?

Dolion (Willie):

Is it the Crimson Fire Bandages? Doing this. Okay.

Melody (Tay):

So Did we only use bandages for my arm? Did we still have dressing, or did I use both the bandages and Go

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

or Genjiro used his last ones on Dolion, so, whatever you have left besides the one that you used, that's it.

Melody (Tay):

Okay. Cool. So I still have some dressing left? Okay. Sweet.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. Alright. So you guys have reached the edge of it's it's sharing. I just gotta have it pop up. There there we go.

Mara (Jenn):

You've reached the edge of the battlefield.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

As you can see, it's a it's a wonderful place to be. Reddish stuff is blood stained areas. This is your party. You're gonna have to get through the the battlefield. So, it's very it's very heavy, mist and, low lying fog right now.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

A lot of that's probably moisture and stuff from bodies and whatnot. The smell is pretty pretty bad. Aggravar and the smell is making it where he's the These senses aren't gonna be as as useful.

Dolion (Willie):

Due to due to what again?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

The smell and stuff of the bodies, the bodies and the blood. Like, these are pools of area where blood and tissue and stuff have come together. There's bodies and so forth playing around that you guys are crossing through. Do you have any, preferred direction?

Dolion (Willie):

Since we have this fog of war, I guess, which would be the most direct way to get to, the goddess.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

And you went straight up or?

Melody (Tay):

Diagonally.

Dolion (Willie):

To the northwest. Now, if his system up, would me being able I'm assuming we have all EPMP back, right, from the rest or no?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yes. I'm

Dolion (Willie):

gonna do the full rest. Okay. Cool. I'm gonna use my passive ability of surveil area. Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

For no position nearby targets. That's armed 50%, all that good stuff.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. There is danger over here.

Dolion (Willie):

Danger will probably do.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

And there's danger over here.

Mara (Jenn):

Can I can I roll my monster creature lore to learn more about ghouls?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yep. Ghouls must, only really take minor physical damage. They're not too worried about criticals. They can be dismembered, but they're pretty quick. Fire does a lot to them.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Ranged attacks would be good if you wanna try to blind them or shoot for the eyes or that kinda, you know, but

Dolion (Willie):

So they don't it'll attack based on any other sense other than sight?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. But they their taste and so forth isn't as, like, pronounced as, like, your, Aggravar's would be.

Dolion (Willie):

Okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You know, like, Aggravar has got a lot more animalistic senses. The only reason that they can sense flesh and blood and stuff is because they're they're undead creatures or whatnot, but they're still related to the senses that they had as living creatures to some extent.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay. So they're undead. Can I command them? Ghouls.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You could try. Okay. Ghouls are a little less easy to control than, like, zombies or whatever because they're not, I don't know if they're considered undead. Ghouls? Yeah.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Because that, Mostly dead.

Mara (Jenn):

They were never

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

They were never dead.

Dolion (Willie):

Oh. Look at the bad guys. Oh, I got

Mara (Jenn):

them.

Dolion (Willie):

Oh, my god.

Mara (Jenn):

Son of a bitch. Retreat. Retreat.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Oh, look at us.

Melody (Tay):

Oh.

Dolion (Willie):

Pinscher attack.

Melody (Tay):

Can we try to just, like, sneak past without detecting? Yeah. Yeah.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It's

Dolion (Willie):

over on the right there, bros. Is it that, like, a little Alright.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

So over here, you guys have the imperials. There's imperial rifleman, imperial soldier, imperial knight, or just, heavier infantry.

Dolion (Willie):

What are they doing now? Nothing.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

They're trying to figure out the area of of monsters to make sure all the monster horde breaks off and, these are remnants of the horde from the war for the battle last night for the other night for Ballenforth. They're trying to escape, but they're running into ghouls. Ghouls don't care if you're a monster, Well, they will be when they come within range.

Dolion (Willie):

I'm not I'm not down

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

for another walking into a three way battle here.

Dolion (Willie):

Can you can you zoom out a little bit? Just a little bit more to smile a little bit.

Melody (Tay):

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Dehance. Dehance. Unenhanced. Unenhanced. There you go.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. This way, this goes right up into the the you're in the foothills of the mountains now.

Mara (Jenn):

Can we skirt behind that horseshoe kind of structure right there? Kinda go below it

Melody (Tay):

and up.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Like, high behind this stuff?

Dolion (Willie):

What is the

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. It seems like a little bit of a lower ground area.

Dolion (Willie):

Dolion (Willie):

does a yell.

Mara (Jenn):

That's a yell. I hope so. He's part of, like, a lion.

Dolion (Willie):

As long as he doesn't yell.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Dolion (Willie):

It doesn't matter if you win by inch or a mile. Winning is winning. Tom Toretto.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yep. That's all you need.

Dolion (Willie):

I almost had you. You never had me.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

your life at a quarter mile at a time.

Mara (Jenn):

You

Dolion (Willie):

never had your core.

Mara (Jenn):

This looks like the, fortress of solitude here.

Melody (Tay):

Did we get experience points for not having to fight that battle?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Actually, yes. I give you all 25,000 experience points for making it through that without fighting. That was awesome.

Dolion (Willie):

Melody (Tay):

We also need to discuss the experience points from before as well, but yes. Yeah.

Mara (Jenn):

Dolion (Willie):

That's the only fight I remember.

Mara (Jenn):

Yeah. Where's Chitara? Morley Kit Morley Cat.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. So this is the, once you enter the cave Cars. There's slight luminous, areas in the key that give it to where you guys can use your night vision, but the a lantern and stuff would give you much better perception with just your night vision. You guys have a negative 25% perception.

Melody (Tay):

I'll pull up my laser lantern. Yeah. I got it. Okay. In my bag.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Now if you wanted to send off the wall into this deeper part of the ravine you see what I'm saying? Can you see that?

Mara (Jenn):

Mhmm. Oh, I'm gonna use the bell or what is my amulet showing me? Because I

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

do have 500 experience points. The amulet is Oh. Puts a beam of light heading straight from the amulet out this way.

Melody (Tay):

Into the ravine?

Dolion (Willie):

Yep. I have a waypoint maker. You've had this the whole time.

Mara (Jenn):

We know where we're going. We know we had to go here.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It also just, just bonused you 500 EPMP for the next 10 turns.

Melody (Tay):

Ayyyeeee.

Dolion (Willie):

Mara. Look at you.

Melody (Tay):

For all of us or just her?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Just her.

Melody (Tay):

Damn.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. So who is the rope?

Melody (Tay):

Me and a grapple.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Aggravar says, I have no idea how far down that is. Genjiro says it looks to be about 65 meters.

Melody (Tay):

How long is my rope?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It's a 100 and 180 feet.

Melody (Tay):

You might have meters and feet.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

I know. I'm trying to do the I don't know.

Melody (Tay):

Oh, can I fly down there and then shine up my lantern to give better What?

Dolion (Willie):

They fucking fly now?

Melody (Tay):

I can fly.

Mara (Jenn):

You can.

Melody (Tay):

I can. Yo, I can fly by the way. So can I fly down so we can see how far down it is and shine up my lights

Mara (Jenn):

Melody (Tay):

Yeah. I have the ring of lightning flight. Yeah. Oh.

Dolion (Willie):

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You you can fly down there and light it up so they can see. Yeah.

Melody (Tay):

Hell, yeah. That's what I'm gonna do. Alright. I

Dolion (Willie):

was gonna shadow walk down there, abracadabra. And be like, when are y'all coming down

Mara (Jenn):

here? You

Melody (Tay):

can. Can I actually pass off my my rope before I go down there tomorrow? Yeah. Okay. So I'm gonna give Mara the rope and grapples so they can get down here, and then I'm gonna shine up the light so they can see how far it is.

Melody (Tay):

Alright. Is the is the rope long enough?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

No. But it will get them down, I think, 50 meters. So that's they only 15 meters to drop. How far can you drop? How far can you fall?

Mara (Jenn):

I can glide 20.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Oh, okay. You're down then.

Mara (Jenn):

Oh.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. Genjiro just climbs and drops off and

Mara (Jenn):

I'll catch Genjiro. Like, I got you.

Dolion (Willie):

What do you see the the drop damage stuff? Like when you're like,

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

oh, what fall is underneath like your jump and your run? There's fall anything beyond that you take damage unless you have like fly or

Dolion (Willie):

jump dive run grip.

Mara (Jenn):

Yeah.

Melody (Tay):

I don't have a fall. I have a repel. 85%.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Well, I definitely need to get you guys on the newer sheet. Okay. You are no longer newbies to the to the home.

Dolion (Willie):

I appreciate it.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Jump. Right after jump, it's dive. You guys don't have a fall. Right? I have to

Melody (Tay):

make sure that

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

yeah. It's because those sheets were only meant to be, like, the intro sheet, but you guys are not rookies. You guys are full fledged adventurers now.

Mara (Jenn):

You've been christened.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. Adventurers.

Mara (Jenn):

They're adventurers now.

Melody (Tay):

Alright. Sweet. So we're all down here.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You're all down on the floor.

Melody (Tay):

Can I roll for my investigate to see what this goop is to see if it's safe to step in?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. It's actually sand. It's getting illuminated by floating orbs of light. But this sand is very, very white like like North Florida sand. Like,

Dolion (Willie):

you know, Fort Walton Beach sand,

Mara (Jenn):

but Keep some. Bright. Put some in a bottle.

Melody (Tay):

Can we tell what these orbs are? Are they dangerous? Is it a trap?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It could be.

Melody (Tay):

Hey, Dolion.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

What up?

Melody (Tay):

Do you wanna see if these orbs are a trap, like using your trap things? Traps skill. Detect?

Dolion (Willie):

I don't really feel like it.

Melody (Tay):

Wow.

Dolion (Willie):

I'll do it.

Mara (Jenn):

Would you do it for me, John?

Dolion (Willie):

Anything that's in the area that's gonna negatively, like, because it's at a 60. Is there any negative? No.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Not for you to check for traps.

Dolion (Willie):

Hey. I got 12, so we're good.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

There is definitely some sort of trap here because you find a bunch of bones. Human bones and armor and stuff.

Dolion (Willie):

Mara, you don't wanna talk to dead people right now or no? You good?

Mara (Jenn):

Is there anything to talk to?

Melody (Tay):

No. Because it's just a bone. She can't talk to bones. It's gotta have

Mara (Jenn):

some I can make a bone Gollum. Oh, can you make

Melody (Tay):

a bone Gollum and run through the trap to see where the trap is and what the

Mara (Jenn):

trap is?

Dolion (Willie):

Before we do that, when I just performed this shadow walk, I felt something moving in the dark.

Melody (Tay):

So So wait. What is everybody's monster creature lore? Should we all just roll for it?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay.

Melody (Tay):

Okay. Let's all roll for our monster creature lore, or I'm gonna at least going to. I'm a can't say what you're gonna do.

Dolion (Willie):

Do we know what we're trying to look for? Is that how Monster Creature lore works, or I thought, like, once we see some shit, we roll it and

Mara (Jenn):

be like, oh, that's what that is.

Dolion (Willie):

Because I can use my passive to, survey the area to see if anything's out there.

Melody (Tay):

Okay. Well, I've rolled for monster creature lore, and I did not make it.

Dolion (Willie):

I'm a use my passive, surveil area.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You definitely know that there is danger.

Dolion (Willie):

What direction do I do I sense it or no? Because if not, I'll just roll the, survival environment. Can you

Melody (Tay):

put a little x on the screen? I thought

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

it disappeared.

Dolion (Willie):

Oh, this thing is shadowed from people's.

Melody (Tay):

Can I

Mara (Jenn):

look at the bones? Mhmm.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Very good. 500 experience points.

Mara (Jenn):

Yeah. Thanks.

Dolion (Willie):

I told you to talk to the dead people.

Mara (Jenn):

Well, I'm looking at the bone.

Melody (Tay):

I'll I'll share it with you.

Mara (Jenn):

2 fifty here. You're gonna have 250.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

They're, they're very wet, worn, and weathered. But one thing you notice is that they have tons of tiny little holes in them.

Melody (Tay):

Holes? Like a like a snake bite, but, like, multiple?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Looks like hundreds and hundreds of tiny holes about the, like

Dolion (Willie):

The booby traps, they're like fucking darts or some kind of needles or some shit coming through.

Melody (Tay):

Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

So, let me both about

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

the size of the tip of a pen.

Dolion (Willie):

Let me roll my survival and search investigate, see if I can see anything that may be a trigger for any traps. Okay.

Mara (Jenn):

I got it.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. Whatever this is, it's triggered magically. There's no mechanisms. You can't find gears or anything.

Dolion (Willie):

welp ladies that magical shit that ain't me. So, can Genjiro can't figure anything out with his wise and fucking

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

let me see.

Melody (Tay):

Or better yet sniffle snuffleupagus.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Conjero says the only thing I have figured figured out is it's gonna be much harder to get back up these, cave walls than it was to come down.

Dolion (Willie):

Oh, y'all can't shadow walk like your boy? Yeah. That's crazy.

Melody (Tay):

I can fly. So

Dolion (Willie):

Okay, Peter Pan.

Mara (Jenn):

I'm just gonna tie a rope around, around Dolion When he shall walk, something like I'm coming with you.

Melody (Tay):

Oh, how far away wait. How many how many moves away is what is, disastrous danger, whatever?

Dolion (Willie):

It looks like, if each move is one of those crosses, there's probably a couple turns, 2 or 3 turns away.

Melody (Tay):

Well, my flight is is 20. So I wanted to see if I could get behind it to see if I could see what it is.

Dolion (Willie):

Why fuck rogue? Magneto?

Mara (Jenn):

What? What? Do I do I notice any holes in the armor that I see?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yep. Tons of tiny little holes.

Mara (Jenn):

And the armor too?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yep.

Dolion (Willie):

So my magic resistance is 60, so if I go up there and this magical trap triggers,

Mara (Jenn):

I don't think I'd

Dolion (Willie):

have much resistance to it. Oh, well, depending on how I roll.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay. Am I near one of the orbs of light?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

They're pretty far away.

Mara (Jenn):

Can I

Dolion (Willie):

Buy a vowel?

Mara (Jenn):

Can I can I use a spirit vision to see if I see any spirits?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yes. You do see a spirit.

Mara (Jenn):

I do. Yep. Where?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Right there.

Mara (Jenn):

I will share that vision to my party, and I will

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

For a brief second, all of you see something else. I'm gonna show you partially of what it is, but you hear you hear a discussion being had where between 3 different people. You're seeing flashes of, I'm trying to explain how how it work. You're seeing the past. Does that make any sense?

Melody (Tay):

Mhmm.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

For for split moment, you're seeing the past. So, you see a a dark shrouded individual that's about, 6 foot tall, has 1 large or one large dark gray wing feathered wing and one smaller dark gray feathered wing, both on the right hand side. It's hooded, cloaked, and he's kinda he's kinda standing off near the, near this area, like, leaning against the wall. Okay? You can't really see his face, but you see across the way an armored individual.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He's male, shoulder length not shoulders. A little shorter, dark dark hair. He has 2 wings on or one wing on either side. Both are are black feathered wings. He's wearing armor and stuff, but he's not facing you guys, so you can only see, like, a little bit of his edge, and you see a female that's over on the ground, like, on her knees and one elbow, and she's she's about right right in this location.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

The guy leaning on the on the against the rock over here just says, is basically talking to the young male who's walking towards the female that's on the ground. He says this is going to this is your plan. This is what you've decided, my son? This is how you're gonna use your power? And the young man's just walking over and says, it's worked better than anything you've ever attempted, father.

Dolion (Willie):

This is the vision of the past.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. You're one of the last, Arianna. You're one of the last to stand against me, and look how easily you failed.

Melody (Tay):

Oh, so Arianna's on the floor. She's the female on the floor. Okay. Is the winged dude on our NPC list or not?

Mara (Jenn):

No. K.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You've seen something like that in your visions, I believe.

Melody (Tay):

Me?

Dolion (Willie):

I know I have no picture or recollection of that. I see Biggie Smalls in my dreams. I'm going to check Biggie.

Mara (Jenn):

Oh. So I Biggie Smalls.

Dolion (Willie):

I can't make any smalls.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yes. You've seen him in your your visions, Melody.

Melody (Tay):

Is he the dude on the horse?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He's before the dude on horse.

Melody (Tay):

Oh, the dude that I shared to everybody. The 2 winged dude.

Mara (Jenn):

Mhmm.

Melody (Tay):

Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The the guy that I showed you guys. The knights?

Dolion (Willie):

The one with the big ass sword?

Melody (Tay):

Yeah.

Dolion (Willie):

That's him?

Melody (Tay):

Apparently.

Dolion (Willie):

I'd be a

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

leaning against the wall says, well, I will no longer support your your desires and your plans, my son.

Melody (Tay):

So the dude from my dreams is the one that's walking towards Arianna?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. The younger guy walking towards Arianna.

Melody (Tay):

What did he say?

Mara (Jenn):

I will no long I will no longer support what?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Your goals and your plans. The younger one says and, he doesn't even stop or acknowledge, like, look towards the other the the guy with the only wings on one side of his body. He just keeps walking, and he just says that I've stopped counting on you a millennium ago, father, back before I learned how to be more powerful than even you, more powerful than even the creator. Alright. He goes over, and Arianna tries to stand up again, and he noticed that he just holds his hand out and, energy seems to be drawing off of her, but also crystal formation seemed to come across her.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

And he points at her and blasts her back, and she solidifies like a statue right in this location with this crystal all around her, and then it starts to form up and it looks like that images of crystal that I showed you guys before. The younger one with the two wings just says and now it is now it is almost complete. And these fools will be imparting their power to me till the end of time.

Dolion (Willie):

At this point, I honestly don't know how how we're gonna move forward, so I'm open to suggestions at this point.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. But it

Melody (Tay):

is No. That and

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

you see you guys can partially you can partially see the statue from well, Aggravar says he could see it because where he's at. If you guys come closer to where he's at and kinda see from this ledge without dropping down in the sand. Does that make sense? Can you still kinda tell that from here?

Mara (Jenn):

Yeah. It's a ledge. Yeah.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Like, this is a little bit raised, and then this would be like the sandy pathway that goes further into the cave towards it. But you could kinda see from this vantage point. You know what I mean? You can see a little bit of the crystal with this with what Arianna looks like a statue inside of a crystal, a giant crystal, like like bluish crystal. But you do sense some kind of power or presence in here.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Now it's definitely not the wing, guys. That was a vision of the past. That's a vision of when she was imprisoned. But, he might have left you a get you know, like, a little surprise somewhere in

Dolion (Willie):

here. Yeah. My trap triggering skills cannot detect magical shit. So

Melody (Tay):

So part of me wants to go fly to that other upper raised thing to see if I can see. Yeah. Can I

Mara (Jenn):

can I try to sense enchantments in hexes? Sure.

Melody (Tay):

I got it.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay. This whole this whole area, the the walking floor level

Mara (Jenn):

Mhmm.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

So not these standard outlying rock crappy rocks or whatever. Just this sandy floor all the way through the whole place is enchanted.

Melody (Tay):

Can she tell what it's enchanted with?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It's actually tiny pieces of crystal that are, like, mostly about the size of, little pieces of crystal that are about the tip of your pinky, maybe. Maybe a little bit smaller.

Dolion (Willie):

About the size of the, hole to the bones that we saw?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

There you go. 500 experience points.

Dolion (Willie):

Each crystal is about to shred us y'all.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay. Well Can I

Melody (Tay):

can I

Mara (Jenn):

try to dim the light?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Those floating orbs are the light. They're part of whatever this is.

Melody (Tay):

They're part of it.

Mara (Jenn):

Can I use my rifle?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Sure.

Mara (Jenn):

I don't know. I wanna try to shoot 1.

Dolion (Willie):

Okay. Go ahead and trigger that trap, girl.

Melody (Tay):

Well, might as well. Let's get this party going. We gonna have some fun. We go have some fun.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

What'd you get?

Mara (Jenn):

I got a 13.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. It looks like your first shot grazes through the, one of the orbs. It stops for a second, and then just goes about it. It had no solid form is what you're guessing. The round went straight through it.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. Aggravar says he's gonna try to jump to the rocks over here.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Wow. It's worst jump in his life. He barely makes it to these rocks right here. A little bit he slid off. You notice the sand swirled up and kinda went around for a second, then came back down to the ground as he moved over.

Mara (Jenn):

Swirled up and Piranha sand.

Melody (Tay):

To that so that's safe over there?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. As long as you're on the rocks, can't touch the sand. Okay.

Mara (Jenn):

Alright.

Dolion (Willie):

I'm a go ahead and shadow walk over to my boy and possibly see if that helps me detect any other stuff since

Mara (Jenn):

the last time I did it, I detected some, some movement.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay. As you shadow walk over there, bursting in from the shadows.

Dolion (Willie):

Let's get it started.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay. We're gone.

Melody (Tay):

Let's get it started.

Dolion (Willie):

Sneaking around the shadows. That's my realm, boy.

Melody (Tay):

Getting the

Mara (Jenn):

Tug off.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He's he's lorry about,

Dolion (Willie):

oh my god. I'm sorry. Oh, yes. It's okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Let's do it.

Mara (Jenn):

I'm ready.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It comes up out of the sands and stuff. The the shadow and stuff takes form, from within the sands. About 10 feet tall. He roars at you when you go through the shadows. Roll your magic resistance negative 15%.

Mara (Jenn):

We're back.

Dolion (Willie):

Minus 15? And my man at 45. Alright. So let's see what we got here. 95.

Dolion (Willie):

I did not get that.

Mara (Jenn):

Oh. Okay. That's okay. Alright.

Dolion (Willie):

Let me see.

Mara (Jenn):

Gotta keep the head up. Oh.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

A thousand damage. Alright. Alright. You take what what items do you have on you on your character? You mean,

Dolion (Willie):

weapons on your armor? What's the what?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

What's your SID on your armor?

Dolion (Willie):

100.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay. So it's at 80 now.

Melody (Tay):

Okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. And it gets riddled with the the crystals, but it does it doesn't go through to you. But it does put holes in it. So what you were saying, yes, you're about to get shredded by crystals. When he roars, it blasts those crystals from the ground.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

I found the trap. Like sandblasting.

Mara (Jenn):

He's right there.

Melody (Tay):

Can he only see this in the shadow realm or can we all see it?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Him now.

Dolion (Willie):

I'll put up Goyo threw

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

him out to the shadows when he did the shadow walk again, it made him come up to to see what what's going on because he felt him, but that and Dolion noticed him move, but he didn't he couldn't see him. But then when he moved again, he was like, oh, I'll come out now.

Dolion (Willie):

I'm gonna, ladies.

Mara (Jenn):

Oh.

Dolion (Willie):

Do we have an order? Did we roll for that yet?

Melody (Tay):

We did. Well, I

Mara (Jenn):

I shot the floating orbs.

Melody (Tay):

Yeah. But you just did it for funsies.

Dolion (Willie):

Calamity Jane over here.

Melody (Tay):

I'm gonna go ahead and roll this one.

Dolion (Willie):

Only Annie Oakley.

Melody (Tay):

I got a 7 for initiative. Okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. You go and then.

Melody (Tay):

Oh, do we all roll?

Dolion (Willie):

Oh, a 5.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Waiting to see what Dolion got real quick. I got it. So you, Dolion, the last is Genjiro, and, Aggravar doesn't get a turn because, basically, I used his turn when he jumped over and had to recover from not falling in the trap. Then it'll be Mara's turn, then it'll be the infernal.

Melody (Tay):

Can I assess the opponent to see, like, what it's, it's my passive ability? Gonna assess it to see, like, what its weaknesses is, and, like

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You you wanna assess him?

Melody (Tay):

Yes. Assess the opponent.

Mara (Jenn):

He's got some split ends. He probably needs a little bit of a trim. Nails need to be cut, but oh, no. That's not.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He's definitely an infernal, so he's from chaos You would guess that he's, probably some form of elemental.

Melody (Tay):

So do I have to roll my monster creature lore to see, like, what Yeah.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

If if there's even record of being able to no one may have ever come across him before.

Melody (Tay):

Okay. I'm gonna roll it to see if I can see what he is strong with, and what he is weak against. To see if my magic even does anything. I got a 51. My monster creature lure is 50.

Melody (Tay):

Did not get it. Cool. Okay. With my last 2 turns. I'm gonna do my lightning storm once.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay.

Melody (Tay):

So that's my 12 sided die, which is not that one. This one. High one. Got a 10.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright.

Melody (Tay):

So, 3 d 12.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

300.

Melody (Tay):

Times 10 times 5.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. 300. So that's, 1,500 damage. Alright. You hit the lightning storm at him.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. He he rears back, and he does a a a magic circle that kinda looks like, anyway, it's a red magic circle with that symbols. And,

Melody (Tay):

I actually have one more turn. If I do this

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He did, he took he took the 1500 damage, but then he also deflects it. He shoots it back and hits Aggravar for 1500 damage and blows them off the rocks into the sand.

Melody (Tay):

Shit. Well, I'm gonna do, if I do this tune of bemusement, is that, like it says the effect is no spell casting for 10 meter area. Is that for, like, everybody on my team too?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Anybody within that 10 meter area that you casted to.

Melody (Tay):

Alright. I'm just gonna use my last turn for tune of rejuvenation to replenish 250 EPMP. And that'll be my last turn.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay. Alright.

Mara (Jenn):

So you

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

use that to build back up the EPMP? Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

Appreciate it.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. Aggravar is unconscious.

Dolion (Willie):

Right. Could you bring the map up so I can see where everybody's gonna at? But no. I'm kinda right next to Aggravar, but he fell down into the sand unconscious. Is there anything happening to him due to him being in the sand?

Dolion (Willie):

So the sand is not like a a trap or anything? Is it, like, slowing his movement? Like, what's what negative effects would there be of going in the sand, or can you tell us that?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Negative effect, it'll be once he the creature gets his chance to move over in that direction.

Dolion (Willie):

Oh, okay. Since he is kind of more of the shadow type, did we get anything when you rolled your, or used your passive to see any kind of weaknesses or anything, Melody?

Melody (Tay):

No. I just saw that he was elemental, and I I had to roll my monster creature lord to see what he was elemental with and what he is weak against, and I didn't pass it.

Dolion (Willie):

Alright. So let me see. What's that? Monster creature lore is what you did?

Melody (Tay):

Yeah. It's on the front of your character information sheet.

Dolion (Willie):

So I'm at a 60. I'll I'll try rolling

Mara (Jenn):

for that as well. K. I did not get it as well. Oh.

Dolion (Willie):

Let me go ahead, and I'm a just try throwing one of my flash bombs, we'll do this specific impact attack, 75 plus damage or plus 75 damage, and the the target will be blinded for 3 actions.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

Let me roll this 20 sided because there's a bonus if it's over 18, days for 2 or 3 turns. So and it's a 19.

Melody (Tay):

Hey, let's go.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Hey. That's double damage.

Dolion (Willie):

I'll take it. So it says over 18, the enemy gets negative 15 physical resistance, and his days for 2 to 3 turns. The, OG effect is it's blinded for 3 actions.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

So I'm checking to see if there's any kind of, like, reaction, like, does the You

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

notice as soon as the the bomb goes off, he he stumbles backwards, and he splits into 2

Mara (Jenn):

My fault.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

But it's not pulling to the point where you don't recognize that one of them is blinded because he's he's staggering. So

Melody (Tay):

now there's two of them?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Jumps up on the rocks just off on top.

Dolion (Willie):

So split in the 2 is like this still the same size?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah.

Dolion (Willie):

Oh, fuck. Yeah. I'm not trying to do that again because I don't want 3 of these motherfuckers out here.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You you shadow walked over to where? To this this ledge. Right?

Dolion (Willie):

We still can't see your map. It's still the, the demon that's on the screen right now.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Oh, I'm sorry.

Melody (Tay):

The demon. Oh, sure. And then I'll do that again.

Mara (Jenn):

Let's pull up the tool.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. So Aggravar was over here. You shadow walked over here. Aggravar got blasted off by lightning that he redirected. And then you you you blinded this one.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He stumbled back and he split into 2. This one jumped up on the rocks to come towards you.

Dolion (Willie):

Mhmm.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

So I'm just trying to make sure everybody's where there's where they where they're supposed to be.

Dolion (Willie):

I'm a go ahead and use dual shot, use my crossbow, on the one that's not blinded that's jumping up here. Okay. Yeah. That one is not a good shot. That's a 3 on that.

Dolion (Willie):

So 100 damage, fires 2 arrows, 2 times arrow damage, negative 10 enemy defense. Using the normal bolts, plus is a is a 100 damage, bonus of damage 30, 130, 2 30 damage.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay. But you got a 3? Yeah. Okay. So you you missed.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

So Alright.

Dolion (Willie):

Yeah. I'm not trying to get close to that thing at all.

Dolion (Willie):

So I'm gonna use chaining.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

And combine 2 skills into one action. How close is this guy to me? I don't I really don't wanna get close to this motherfucker.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He's about 15 to 20 feet away.

Dolion (Willie):

Okay. Elemental. Can he be decapitated? Yes or no?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He seems to have a solid form.

Dolion (Willie):

Alright. Let's fucking do this shit. So using chaining, I will go with my where's my my vengeful onslaught stance.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

Which is plus 75 damage. 10% chance to dismember, and 10% to the critical, and we're gonna use that with the, the throat slash to see if,

Mara (Jenn):

we can take this motherfucking's head off. Alright. What do

Dolion (Willie):

I need for that shit? 18 to decapitate. Alright. Let's go. 18.

Dolion (Willie):

Okay.

Mara (Jenn):

What? Shut up, Reese.

Dolion (Willie):

I still have to roll the chance to decapitate. I still have to roll that shit. So what's up?

Mara (Jenn):

What's your bonuses to decapitate?

Melody (Tay):

You have bonuses.

Dolion (Willie):

The weapon gives me plus 5, so that's 35. And then with the throat slash, plus 15 for that over 18. So that 50. Right? Yep.

Dolion (Willie):

Let's see what we

Mara (Jenn):

can do here.

Dolion (Willie):

Sorry, guys. It's a 47. Uh-huh.

Mara (Jenn):

Yeah. Yeah. 50. You got it.

Dolion (Willie):

Oh, okay. Yeah. I don't know why. You got it. Go.

Dolion (Willie):

Yeah. Yeah.

Mara (Jenn):

You got it. You got it. Let's

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

go. Alright.

Melody (Tay):

Let's go.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. This one the the one that he hits, it it dissipates into fire and smoke. It's completely gone. Alright. That seems to make this one, the the original one fall to one knee now.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Almost as if he divided his power in order to create the second one.

Dolion (Willie):

I see. Okay. Each time they split, a weaker version of them popped out. Okay. Well, I got some more more actions.

Mara (Jenn):

What you're gonna do in Dolion comes for you?

Dolion (Willie):

You guys think it'd be smart to split them up again so we have weaker versions of this thing or no? Not because if there's more, they have more chances to shoot them fucking crystals and shit, and then shits hurt.

Melody (Tay):

Are both of them blinded? If they No.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

The only one left is blinded.

Dolion (Willie):

I feel like if I try to blind this motherfucking, you know, some some magical shit's gonna happen, but now that he can't do shit for now, am I close enough to try to hit him with the throat slash as well?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Well, you have 2 actions left, so you could use one action to get closer to him. Yeah. We'll do that.

Dolion (Willie):

Engage. Arrange so I can handle with

Mara (Jenn):

the flash.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

I'm I'm gonna use my, common sense and say that you're going on top of the rocks to hit him, not in the sand. So

Dolion (Willie):

Yeah. I mean, I'm undetected as

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

it was. Right? Yeah. Because he's blinded.

Dolion (Willie):

Right.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

So go ahead. Yep.

Mara (Jenn):

Oh, it's a 17. Sorry, guys. No. The cap.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

I hit though damage

Dolion (Willie):

it did in plus 10 critical. Now does critical come into play with these guys or no?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

No. Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

They

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

don't have anatomy like, a person. So

Dolion (Willie):

It's all good. So it's just thunder damage plus the attack.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Is that your piercing damage or your this is throat slashing?

Dolion (Willie):

Yeah. This is slash, throat slash. So 1.25 is my slash damage based from the weapon. Bonus to damage is 30, so that'll be 1.50 5 plus the 100 from the throat slash.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

So 255. Okay. 255. 255, and, Melody did 1500 damage. So he yeah.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. He falls down and then he disappears. He's not dead, though, because if he was dead, he would've

Dolion (Willie):

you guys are seeing him

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

burn and burn and turn into smoke. So he's probably going into hiding because of the amount of damage that you guys did. Mhmm. Genjiro picks up Aggravar and pulls him onto the rocks, but, he looks to you guys and says, if we're gonna do something to to that crystal, we need to figure it out and get over there now. We don't wanna draw more of the these creatures.

Mara (Jenn):

Let's go.

Dolion (Willie):

So I got one more turn left. Mhmm. And I have some EPMP. Are we trying to break this crystal? What are we trying to do to this crystal?

Dolion (Willie):

Mara, Melody, what's up?

Melody (Tay):

Oh, she's entirely made out of Crystal, or she's encased in Crystal?

Dolion (Willie):

Well, can y'all, like There's

Mara (Jenn):

just a

Melody (Tay):

case in it then, yeah, we can break it. Okay.

Mara (Jenn):

I just touch it, Melody. See what happens.

Dolion (Willie):

No. It's I'm about to go over there and fucking hit this shit with my fucking weapon, try to break the crystal off her or whatnot. Because I was gonna chain and then combine a fucking Shadow Walk over there and hit it with a fucking move.

Mara (Jenn):

You guys think that's the move or not?

Melody (Tay):

I'm just worried that if you do that, like, you will be right next

Mara (Jenn):

to the, like,

Melody (Tay):

the guy will come out of hiding. The guy that you blinded.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

There's no way to get over here without standing in the sand.

Dolion (Willie):

And we don't know if

Mara (Jenn):

the sand does some wild ass shit when the monster pops up.

Melody (Tay):

Yeah. I mean, like, you can, like, hop, skip, and get up on that rock and get close because my next move, I'm gonna get over there, and I'm just gonna fly above her and touch her on her head. See if I can stand

Mara (Jenn):

on it.

Dolion (Willie):

Is there any shadows up there for me to shadow walk to just so I can kinda be in position?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. I mean, over in this area, you could definitely shadow walk to where

Dolion (Willie):

it is.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Just kinda wall the cave area.

Dolion (Willie):

I wanna be up on the ledge, though. I don't wanna be, Okay. I'll just I'll just yeah. That'll up there. Cool.

Dolion (Willie):

Cool.

Mara (Jenn):

Cool. Cool. Cool.

Dolion (Willie):

Ladies, I am sitting at, 250, EPMP.

Melody (Tay):

Once I fly over there, I'll get you some more.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Don't count or, Dolion. Shadow walk doesn't take anything. Shadow walk to 0.

Dolion (Willie):

Oh. Oh, so shadow oh. Disregard, ladies. I'm at 800, dude. 850 to get that.

Melody (Tay):

Alright, Mara. Alright.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

What are you doing?

Melody (Tay):

Me? Mhmm.

Dolion (Willie):

Yep.

Mara (Jenn):

I'll jump down into the sand.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Jesus.

Dolion (Willie):

Mara's, like, fuck all this shit.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. The sand starts to swirl around nearby and comes up and whips at you. It misses, but it puts it puts tiny holes in the stone wall behind you.

Mara (Jenn):

I'll cast a stone gall or a stone guardian. Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

It's not a brain Get back.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It's for stone guardian. I put this back here as your stone guardian.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay. I have him start walking towards the crystal.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

It it

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

the sand keeps hitting him and stuff.

Mara (Jenn):

Walk behind him.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Out. He said he's 35 SID ?

Melody (Tay):

Fuck. Where'd it go?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You can walk in front of you. You're just gonna walk behind him so he gets the hits.

Mara (Jenn):

Yeah. Yeah. He's got 35 SID.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. So now he has 25. Now he has 5. No. He'd have 10.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. He dies here.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

But you're you're right at the crystal.

Mara (Jenn):

I'll touch the crystal.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You see it? It's about 8 feet tall, bluish crystal. You could see this the silhouette of someone inside,

Dolion (Willie):

but that's

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

about it.

Mara (Jenn):

Can I get the bell out?

Dolion (Willie):

Yes.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay. I'll get the bell out.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

1000 experience points.

Mara (Jenn):

Dolion (Willie):

Gee. Oh, go girl.

Mara (Jenn):

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yep.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay. I'll ring the bell.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Nothing happens.

Dolion (Willie):

More monsters show up. Bingo. What's that noise?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. Genjiro jumps down to fight this one, but that's gonna be a hell of a fight. So that's you have one more action, Mara.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Crimson fire bats.

Mara (Jenn):

Shut up.

Melody (Tay):

Well, we know that they're on fire.

Mara (Jenn):

When I look at the bell Mhmm. Did anything happen to the crystal and I rang the bell?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

No.

Melody (Tay):

Is it glowing?

Dolion (Willie):

Absolutely nothing has happened. Mhmm.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

These guys are gonna eat you if you guys don't think it's something cool.

Dolion (Willie):

That was the dinner bell. Hit the fucking crystal.

Mara (Jenn):

The one I don't really have anything

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

to do with it. Your your amulet is your amulet is glowing more brilliantly than ever, and it actually illuminates the base of all this crystal. And you see the silhouette inside's eyes open.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay. Can I take my amulet off and touch it to the crystal?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. Nothing happens.

Mara (Jenn):

I don't know what the fuck that means. Alright. You get backhanded

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

this guy backhands you like,

Dolion (Willie):

you better have my money.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

And you fly and hit this wall, you've broken Alright. You have multiple broken bones on your right side fall down. Could not cast for 2 turns, and you took 580 damage.

Mara (Jenn):

K.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Versus physical resistance, negative, 15%. And this guy's gonna come to eat.

Mara (Jenn):

Go ahead. I taste bad.

Dolion (Willie):

Whose turn?

Melody (Tay):

Well, she's rolling real quick, and then it's mine.

Dolion (Willie):

Okay.

Mara (Jenn):

You said how much negative?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

15.

Mara (Jenn):

Nope.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay. Mara is unconscious, so we're gonna put the, little

Mara (Jenn):

The Ankh on there. Yep. Looks like a pacifier. Oh, it looks like a appropriate.

Melody (Tay):

Alright. If my flight takes 20 moves, how far away is that crystal from me?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It's at 20.

Melody (Tay):

Cool. I will fly on top of that crystal, and I will touch it with my hand.

Dolion (Willie):

Put my palm

Melody (Tay):

to it.

Mara (Jenn):

You

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

250 experience points. You get right there, and you fly over, and you touch it, and you hear something ring on Maras' body and glow slightly in Maras' hand.

Melody (Tay):

Alright. Do I have to go spike

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He can only move 5. So he's not in range. You're awake now, Mara. You do have a broken rib and a broken arm on or right arm. And Genjiro gets and and helps you so you guys can move away from alright.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

larger form. She just heals everybody 2600 life force and 1,000 e p m p if you have it or whatever. Mara, she's healed your shoulder your right arm and your ribs.

Melody (Tay):

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

But you're you're at that that frenzy point right now. You're you have to roll under 60% to try not to feed on Arianna.

Melody (Tay):

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah.

Mara (Jenn):

About to have some some how much?

Dolion (Willie):

Okay. You resist it.

Melody (Tay):

Cool. Cool. Cool.

Mara (Jenn):

Cool. Cool. Cool.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright.

Dolion (Willie):

We want no problems.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

She looks over the group, and, immediately, you can all hear her in your mind, and she alright, all of all of you are now alright. All of all of you are now out of here.

Mara (Jenn):

And

Melody (Tay):

Before we leave, can I tell her about the

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

some temple in the forest? Oh, what did you say?

Melody (Tay):

Before we leave, can I show her the horn that Mara has and say that we need to give this back to the the nest of the Wyvern?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

She touches the horn in in in a same way that she she transferred Dolion from the from Ballenforth to the cabin. She does that, and she says that it is placed where it should be. Alright.

Melody (Tay):

Okay. We can leave now.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You guys are all in the forest now. Just north of Blackwell ruins, there's an old temple here that's worn away the edge of the woods and you guys are here. You're no longer in the caves. She says rest for the night. I will I will heal all your wounds, sister.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Don't worry. You are safe now under the under my under my sky. You shouldn't face anything.

Mara (Jenn):

Shit. Let's fucking go. No.

Melody (Tay):

We'll tell her thank you and ask her if she can also heal up the rest of the group.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Absolutely. Everyone can rest easy. I will watch over you in the evening. Know this that I owe each of you one favor that you can call upon. But from here on out, sister, once within the changing of the the, brothers, you can call upon me to in battle.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

So basically, once a week, because the moons change every week as to who's out of the 4 brothers of the night, So once a week, you can call and Ariano will come down and do, like, that what you just saw, which was the,

Dolion (Willie):

the light that protects.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. Basically, it's a it's a celestial, tempest. It's basically her her big attack. So you have a summon from that you can call her down once a week. Alright?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

She's also, walks over. She's normal sized now because she's not doing the whole transporting everyone, but she walks over and she sticks her hands out in front of you, Dolion, as if she wants you to put your hand in hers.

Dolion (Willie):

Alright. She cute. I'll do it. Okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

She touches your hands and you notice that the the same kind of symbols like on the star chart that represent Arianna show up on the palm of your hand, and they kinda fade like stars that go across onto your wrist.

Dolion (Willie):

It's a Okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Energy, but you can't see it anymore. Jen's described this before. It's pretty cool. But it's kinda like a magic tattoo. Alright?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

And she says that I one of my gifts this is not the favor I owe you, but one of my gifts, Dolion, is that when you wish it, I could take you anywhere on Seriva, and then I will also bring you back. Because I know you have places you need to go.

Dolion (Willie):

I thank her and, you know, paid her the respects that she is owed, for her being a goddess. Okay. A courtesy, if you will.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

And she says, Mara, she comes over to you and says, I cannot stop you or I cannot stop the thirst that you will have now, but the way in which you deal with it will decide a lot upon your your coming future, more so than your father ever let on. I think you have seen some of your future. Is that not right?

Mara (Jenn):

I have.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

And you you have to know that you make that decision if you wish my help, and she extends her hands the same way she did to Dollyon.

Mara (Jenn):

What will this do?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

I will give you a gift, just like I did Dolion, but it's different. To it. Okay.

Mara (Jenn):

I'll give her my hands.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. She places the same kind of, magic tattoo by stars on your wrist, basically her constellation. And she says, she says it only in, her mind so as to not share with anyone else. So I'm a tell you what she says.

Melody (Tay):

Okay. While this is happening, I'm gonna also walk over to Mara and give her back her amulet.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay.

Melody (Tay):

And tell her that I'm sorry that I took it, but, I felt that it was right at the moment.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Word. Word. Word. Word. Word.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Squidward.

Dolion (Willie):

While you're typing that, can I ask her, is this, gift that you gave me, it's only for me to teleport and not a group to teleport?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Whichever you wish to, man.

Dolion (Willie):

Okay. That's all I needed to.

Melody (Tay):

Can he teleport himself and then teleport with more people back?

Dolion (Willie):

It's whatever I wish. Okay.

Mara (Jenn):

And I wish for more wishes.

Dolion (Willie):

Can I

Melody (Tay):

beat the dead? Come back to life.

Dolion (Willie):

I my only wish

Mara (Jenn):

is that she would sing, Never Had A Friend Like Me.

Melody (Tay):

Now. Which version do you want?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

She says, I owe you all a favor, but this these are my gifts to you. Melody, you have the you have the same mark, and like I but yours is gonna stay, and you could call on her once a week. Right? He says, if my time is limited at the moment, I must return to the stars. It's been too long.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

I need my power. But she says that we must find our other sisters, Serena, Pyris, Azura, and Seriva.

Melody (Tay):

Can I look at her and be like, so when you call me your sister, does that mean that we're, like, blood sisters? Or

Dolion (Willie):

Yes. Sorority sisters.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You are the half of Lunaria that I knew in the beginning of the worlds.

Melody (Tay):

Okay.

Dolion (Willie):

Alpha Sigma Psi. Sweet.

Melody (Tay):

Oh, thank you for help.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Though is

Melody (Tay):

Sorry. Go ahead.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Your dark half is still out here. Which half prevails will be up to you. Your actions will dictate your future, and whether or not the black wings will bring eternal night for everyone or the white wings will help deliver the child of light again.

Melody (Tay):

Cool. No pressure.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Remember, you are not alone.

Melody (Tay):

Yeah. You're my friends.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Exactly.

Dolion (Willie):

As you say that I teleport out.

Melody (Tay):

Can I ask her, where we should head next? Like, where is the next nearest sister?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Your next move should be to secure, one of your dragons. Goddamn it.

Melody (Tay):

Where are my dragons? I am Khaleesi now.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

They're here.

Mara (Jenn):

What do

Dolion (Willie):

you mean here? Your boy turned into a dragon already, ain't he one of them?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Alright. Alright. She says that, you you all have her eternal gratitude, but she must return to the stars at least for now in order to regain her strength. Understood. But she will return to health, and we must free all the sisters and, maybe uncover a new age to ush to usher in the new gods.

Melody (Tay):

I will tell her thank you, and she is free to return to the stars.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Okay. She will watch over you while you sleep so you guys get full rest. You guys have already healed up completely, so, camp is being made and so forth. Aggravar just kinda zones out for a lot of this because well beyond what he expected.

Mara (Jenn):

I mean, he doesn't know you guys.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

He came along and

Dolion (Willie):

he's, like,

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

all free and goddesses and stuff. I just was trying to help bury my brother.

Dolion (Willie):

I thought Machitis would show up sometime. Yeah.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It's like I was waiting for Machitis. Yeah. I guess not. He's, infernal demons in a cave is crazy.

Dolion (Willie):

Enjoyed the XP my boy.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. Speaking of XP, that's gonna be, for freeing Arianna. Everybody gets 25,000 experience points.

Mara (Jenn):

Damn.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. Each of the internals that you guys fought, so that's 4 they were each worth, 12,500. So,

Dolion (Willie):

50,000.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. It's 50,000. Right? Mhmm.

Melody (Tay):

Is that for all of us, or is that just for the people that, like

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You guys were all in that battle. Completing that completing the cave in its own is worth 5,000. Because the trap I was waiting for you guys to step on that that sand, but you guys were playing cautious enough to where that didn't happen. And then, of course, Jenn kept the bell and was able to, start pushing for cracking that. I knew once Arianna got out, the infernals weren't gonna be enough to stop her because their infernals are basically demons.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

They're not on the same level as, you know, so Mhmm. Yeah. You guys got already got your experience points for crossing the battlefield. Each of those soldiers that you guys fought, man, there's a lot. Yeah.

Melody (Tay):

I had 3 elite cultists and 2 death blades to that whole river scene.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. Alright. You got 3,800 from the river area, Melody.

Melody (Tay):

You're all about to have a bunch of new moves when she gets back.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

That's 4,600 for the, river area, Dolion. 4,600. Oh, yeah. And you guys you defeated Darius, and he's worth 5,500. And then, Durgus was, I think he's 7 let me check.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

7,000?

Dolion (Willie):

What was Darius?

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Darius was 5,500 because he's not completely defeated. So every time you defeat him, he's worth until you guys can actually get the the his entrapped soul.

Dolion (Willie):

Piece them back together, Jenn, and then we'll kill him, and that's how we'll farm XP.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Jenn, you got 3,250 for the river plus whatever for those guys. And you and you killed you killed Durgus, so you get an extra 1500 for that. And, that should be it. Right? You guys didn't have any other fights going on.

Melody (Tay):

Wait. I'm sorry. So everybody

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

at cabin and kind of making allies and stuff that that's worth 2,500. You guys now know you guys have those list of allies and so forth. That's where I'm keeping Jer, and Machitis will meet up there. So, they'll be with the allies whenever the allies are moving around or whatnot.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

You guys know they're heading towards the central parts of the continent on the big map. So

Melody (Tay):

I'm sorry. Did I miss how much the dude that Jenn December dismembered or whatever

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

it was? 500.

Mara (Jenn):

Okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

I dis Oh, no. That that was yeah.

Dolion (Willie):

And then he floated down the river and Mara put him in a bag.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Yeah. Yes. Dolion defeated Darius, but, Jen defeated with the acid.

Melody (Tay):

So do I not get those experience points since since they were No.

Mara (Jenn):

You got

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

you did. They they just got more they got extra because they actually killed them.

Melody (Tay):

Okay. Okay.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

It's just you can't kill Darius permanently until the his sole entrapment is released. So

Melody (Tay):

Okay.

Mara (Jenn):

But the

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

thing is, Jenn already did cast it, so it's, you know, in a way, he's kind of in between. So it may take longer if he does ever show up again before you guys free him permanently.

Dolion (Willie):

I like it. I like it.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Man, I hate to say it, but, Machitis is gonna be way behind you guys. He's gonna show up and be, like, a 10th level dude, and you guys are gonna be, like, 25th level characters. Like, we'll help Machitis. We gotta save him. All the time, it'll be like, we gotta save Machitis.

Dolion (Willie):

Stay in the back. Just throw your axe.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

Just throw the axe.

Dolion (Willie):

Throw your axe. If you miss

Mara (Jenn):

one, go

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

to the house. Miss it. You missed the house.

Dolion (Willie):

Here's your ax. Just try to get it.

Dr. Awesome (Eric):

No. So alright. So, I know, Melody, you said you gotta go some campfire stuff and go over some stuff if, you guys have any questions, and, you can backfill Melody. So we could do the campfire, and then, with Melody could still or Melody, you can go, and we'll do the campfire thing if you guys need to, or we could just go over some stuff or whatnot.
