Centuries later, four traitor Astartes are crammed into a gunship none of them can fly, chasing a target to a frozen backwater world called Van Celis. The servitors handle the landing — until an autocannon punches through the cockpit and kills the pilot. They crash. Three platoons of guardsmen are dispatched to stop them. They melt, they scream, they die.

System: WH40K Black Crusade
Four Chaos Space Marines. One terrified Guardsman. A cursed ship hurtling across the galaxy. Join us for a Warhammer 40,000 actual-play TTRPG campaign using the Black Crusade system — hilarious, grimdark, and utterly unhinged. Which Chaos God will the Guardsman ultimately choose? Who will prevail in the end?
I'll pick up Yevgeny and put him in my inventory.
You know, if you press a little harder,
you might be able to snap my neck.
Again, he's blind.
You can get away with a lot here.
You can mislead the elderly all you want.
R2, are you as fucking?
R2, do you as fucking?
Always not.
He is in my behind.
Like, reach the man.
Good, good, good.
Let us counterattacking.
Backstroke of the West.
Kill to death him.
It's one of those annual watches.
Batter to death him.
I love that.
I should really feed you all, dog.
Smelly boy.
Yeah, my screen name is from that fucking goddamn video.
I know it's like the back of my hand.
Here's our Star Wars thing as the intro.
Hi, everybody.
Yeah, give us a Star Wars text crawl.
Yeah.
Speaker, don't make me bring a Kang crumbs and cubed.
Cubed or whatever.
I'll kill you.
It's not even funny.
It is extremely funny.
We can.
It's actually been funny because you just shriveled.
Continue.
All right, everybody.
Welcome to another episode of a Chaos Theory.
So, hopefully, we can see what happens to our lovely brand.
Oh, yeah.
Wait.
Did I say Chaos Theory?
You did.
You did.
Oh, shit.
I did.
I guess it rolls off a lot better than Odyssey does it.
Because I was fighting tooth and nail.
I'm like, oh, which one should we do?
But due to the proposition of the story, I was like, okay, Odyssey sounds like it's a lot more related to what's going on.
So, I think I will just lean on that one.
But I do find myself saying a Chaos Theory way more.
And we are free.
We're not fighting Splinter Cell.
Yeah, well, we'll see for the next one.
We'll see for the next Chaos Campaign we do.
You know?
It'll be the other seasons.
I like how we just automatically are like, there's going to be another Chaos Campaign now.
There has to be.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that's Warhams, too.
Yeah.
We're having a good time.
Because we're all going to die, obviously.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's true.
The whole party dies.
We've got to redo this game.
That's when Resort plays a squig.
Yes.
That'll be a novelty, spooky boy.
A squeak.
I hear you squeeze me.
I go.
Chaos Campaign.
I just had to go wash out my eyes briefly because they started to burn because I'm a little tired.
Oh, no.
No.
Don't worry.
Don't worry.
You can now be tired as we continue to be Chaos people in a Chaos Odyssey.
I got it right this time.
You got it right.
You got it right.
Good job.
Easy.
Edit that out.
And then back in.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Edit back and forth and forward and back.
Info board and back.
Easy.
Easy.
Side to side.
Forward.
Easy.
Get me a gallon of milk, please.
Easy.
Inverse.
Can you put a hat on Zoran?
Yeah.
Can you put a hat on me?
Also, flip this entire scene upside down.
Can you bit crush my audio, please?
Now bring it around town.
Now around town.
Easy.
Easy.
Start breathing now.
Now stop.
Easy.
Finish the edit.
It's fucked up.
Easy.
Easy.
Easy.
Delete the edit.
Delete the edit.
Delete it.
Easy.
Add a video of Temple Run over Speaker's avatar.
How else is anybody going to pay attention?
Yeah.
No one's going to look at us anymore.
This probably makes us all with letter games.
But, of course, we're back again for another exciting episode of a whole bunch of chaos shenanigans.
Now, Thurston.
Yeah.
What adventure do you have for us today?
Oh, let's hop right in.
The first one went so well.
All right.
Watch out.
Cool.
I am going to have Speaker read the opening quote for our session today.
Very good.
Oh, Lorgar voice.
You have all walked different paths, but together we have come to the same destination.
The Emperor has failed us.
The Imperium has failed us all.
Attributed to Primarch Lorgar Aurelian prior to the Dropside Massacre.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
I added in a little laugh there because the Dropside Massacre is funny.
I mean, for your side, sure.
Yeah, I mean, for my side, it was fucking really great.
From your perspective, it was fucking hilarious.
Like, I don't think anyone won the Dropside Massacre more than your legion.
Yeah, we did pretty well for ourselves, I gotta say.
Yeah.
You came out ahead.
Then we squandered it.
It was a good pun I just made there.
I liked the pun.
I just, I was thinking too much.
I was reading too much about how much the Emperor's children completely fucked themselves over the second the heresy ended.
It made me sad.
It is pretty funny, though.
It is pretty fun.
That's the thing.
It's okay.
With Slaanesh, it's okay so long as it's funny.
True.
So, one important thing I think we learned last session, which is very important, is that none of you are really pilots of any kind of aircraft or anything like that.
No, we ain't.
Should we have hired a pilot?
We start in the back of the fire raptor gun.
As it is crashing when the question was brought up.
No, we, don't you guys remember?
We had that dark mechanicum guy.
I'm sorry, true mechanicum guy.
Is he okay?
All of you, all four of you, of the Emperor's form,
or the former Emperor's angels,
are in the back of a fire raptor.
You are descending
towards a planet.
The planet in this particular
out excursion of yours
is Van Celis' world.
You're trailing someone.
And the fact that this person is coming to this world
is
reason enough for you to follow.
Whether that means
this individual is
something of great import to accomplish,
or is going to find something of great import that you could take.
There's myriad reasons,
but you all agree that you
need to follow this individual here.
So you are
descending
in
your fire raptor gunship.
The vessel itself
is now scorched
after
centuries of warfare.
The
former
midnight blue
torn off,
replaced with
metal hull,
patched plates.
But it still flies.
This
is a
low-grade,
meaningless world
in the
furthest reaches
of
the corpse
Emperor's domain.
But none of you can fly.
So instead,
hardwired
servitors
have been
installed in this vessel
to take you down
to the surface.
It's something you've
become accustomed to
in your time.
The long,
long years
of
having
the glorified
vessel
of the Legion,
one of the many
great attack crafts,
reduced to nothing more than
a shuttle
by the
mewling,
sycophantic,
lobotomized drones
that sit
in the canopy.
But this is
a backwater
world.
There's nothing
to worry about.
Each of you
are in the
back of
the gunship.
As you're in the
back of the
gunship,
I'd like to
give you
each a moment
to describe
how exactly
you
rest in the
back of this
vessel.
Are you
strapped in?
Are you
standing?
What are you
doing?
Beth Isle
is definitely
pacing.
Definitely
has like a
kind of
constant
energy
to him
and
does not
do well
just sitting
in silence
for long
stints of
time.
So he'll
sit there
for a
little bit
and then
after a
bit he
just gets
up and
starts pacing
just back
and forth.
He has ADHD.
Yeah,
he has ADHD.
Korn has
not given
him his
Adderall.
Well,
if in
that case,
Byzantie
is definitely
spreading out
to take up
the space
that previously
would have
belonged to
Beth Ael
and using
it to
tune his
sonic blaster
as he
awaits
eagerly
for deployment.
He's
man spreading
into my
seat.
He's
Slyness
spreading.
That's
right.
It belongs
to me.
Lifos
Cephas.
Cephas
is probably
standing at
the very
back of
the vessel
wherever the
door would
be for it
to let out
from,
I would
presume.
He is just
standing there
and facing
the door
with his
power sword
not activated
and planted
tip down
against the
floor of
the vessel
as he
stands and
patiently waits
for it to
land so he
can disembark
presently as
the champion
of chaos he
is and is
just standing
there wordlessly.
Perhaps the
only thing he's
doing is similar
to the avatar
that I have,
just occasionally
pushing the
sword forward
and then back
in a very
slow rhythm
as he waits.
All right.
Is our human
friend with
us?
Nope.
Okay.
Where did we
leave him?
We left him
at home.
We don't have
any human
friends,
guys.
It's like,
stray away
from bit,
stray away
from bit.
I know.
Lifos is,
he's strapped
in.
He's sitting
in,
in as much
as his skull
doesn't have
eyelids.
It would be
as if he's
in concentration
as he's
looking down
and at a
position on
his staff
as he is
holding it.
And if
anybody would
even get
close enough
to detect
it,
he's just
doing slight
chanting
of various
demonic
mantras and
words of
power as
he's continuing
to just
basically look
into the
warp as a
way of like
sort of like
a proximity
radar to be
like,
hey,
is there
anything as
we go down
to this
planet?
Would there
be any threats
or anything
coming through
but for
another
alternative
that he
is doing
he is
casting
thought
sending
the
corny
thought
sending
is
telepathically
communicate
with willing
or unaware
targets
within range.
Has he
done this
with Beth
IEL before?
That is my
that is a
key question.
Would you
have,
okay,
okay.
as he's
he is
he's sneakily
adding in
some bits
ever so
often.
Of course,
I need to
see if I
successfully
pass it.
So Thurston,
if I may
roll some
psychic stuff
and see if I
summon Scarlet
in the ship.
Absolutely.
Yay.
I will do
this fettered
just so we
don't have
any issues
here.
Do you
want to
do that
early?
Yeah,
just to
make sure
I ride
and I
rolled an
11 with
8 degrees
of success.
Good.
Lord.
Very
absolutely.
And I
am just
sending
various
thoughts
to Beth
IEL
as if
it's not
of my
voice.
I'm basically
mimicking it
to be
something of
you know,
like,
how can I
quite describe
it?
Maybe
someone more
aggressive,
like a lot
more manlier
and stuff
going like,
like,
you don't
want to
stay in
the ship
anymore,
do you?
You could
have been
down there
killing
more and
more of
them.
Do you
really think
you should
be held
behind
by such
mongrels
on this
ship?
The better
than
all of them.
Beth IEL is
like,
the more you
talk,
the worse
his twitch
gets.
And he just
kind of takes
a hand
and knocks
against his
skull on the
side with the
nails a few
times and
just
when do
we land?
Lathos will
lean over
to the
Sineshi
and be
like,
is he
always
like this?
You
asking me
that?
How long
have we been
traveling together
since the
siege of terror?
Is it only
now beginning
to irritate
you?
I never
much pay
attention
that those
of the
red
didn't stay
away.
I can't pay you
for that,
but don't
forget that
when I met
you,
you wore
plenty of
red yourself.
Those were
past times.
Maybe you
should learn
to cast
an incantation
of paying
attention
to your
comrades.
He laughs
at you.
Pay
attention,
moron.
Idiot.
What are you,
some kind of
moron?
I am
tired of
conversation.
When do
we land?
We are
approaching
the surface.
Go
faster!
that will
require
breaking
protocol.
Do you
authorize
the breaking
of protocol?
Break the
damn
protocol!
No,
he doesn't!
Get the
protocol!
Compliance!
Donald works
faster!
Gentlemen,
it's been an
honor knowing
you.
Seth
reaches
his hand
up to grab
the loop
of leather
hanging from
the roof
of the
vessel.
He doesn't
move,
he's just
like,
it's going
to get
bumpy.
Sure
will.
Just give
me a sec.
Let me,
here's a
good old
good old
servitors.
I like
that.
That's good.
You know,
my old
leggy died
in a fire
after the
crash.
It's like
coming up.
Okay.
The
vessel
begins to
accelerate.
Finally!
all feel
the intensity
as it
kicks in.
Now,
you all
know that
the vessel
you're in,
the fire
raptor,
isn't really
typically meant
for transport.
In fact,
it's sort of
the variant
of this type
of gunship
that eschews
transport for
guns.
So,
you know,
you've already
made what
little modifications
you can to
fit as many
of you
inside as
you can.
Going
faster makes
this a bit
more
just
difficult.
However,
the servitors
bend to a
45 degree
angle.
Yeah,
the servitors
seem to be
doing a good
job.
However,
a sec.
Oh,
good.
All of
you suddenly
are jerked
violently
as the
vessel makes
an abrupt
turn
midair.
It's something
none of you
were expecting.
So,
I am going
to have
each of
you
give me
a
acrobatics
check.
And this
is going
to be
a
challenging.
So,
plus zero.
time for
me with
my
if you
are
braced,
you'll
get
an
additional
plus
20.
Would
you say
that
me
standing
and
holding
the
leather
loop
is
not
braced?
I'll
give
you
plus
for
that
one.
Okay,
fine,
because
I'm
going to
need
that
because
my
acrobatics
is
untrained.
Lifos is
strapped in.
Oh,
no.
Lifos is
strapped in.
Yep,
Lifos
still give
me a check,
but give
me the
plus 20.
That is
so fucking
funny.
I lost
by
three,
so I
have one
failure,
one degree
of success.
Oh my god.
Okay.
Lifos got a
92,
so six degrees
of failure.
Okay.
Byzant,
so I
think
did
all of
wait,
Byzantie,
Cephas.
I
failed
by
only
one.
And
Bethael
succeeded.
I
succeeded.
Byzantie
and Lifos
failed by
seven and
six,
respectively.
See,
I said
seven and
six this
time.
You
can't
yell
at
me.
Yeah.
So
so
all
of you
are
stumbling
and
Lifos
with that
many
degrees
of
failure.
The
strap
actually
breaks
under the
pressure
of this,
causing you
to tumble
forward.
Cephas,
it's not
enough.
You are
sensible
for Byzantie.
Similarly,
your careless
attitude in
the face
of this
has caused
you to
fall.
All
three of
you
tumble
in front
of Bethael,
who,
despite being
like just
freestanding,
seems to
have had no
problems
maintaining
their balance
in this
circumstance.
As all
of your
Ceramite
clad forms
tumble,
in front
of the
mighty
warrior,
there is
a sudden
report
from the
servitors.
We are
taking fire
from the
surface.
Unexpected
munitions
discharge.
What?
Oh.
Hey,
get up!
What are you
doing on the
floor?
At that
exact moment,
at that
exact moment,
something
happens.
Uh-oh.
I require
everyone in
the cockpit
who's not
Bethael,
so the
three on
the floor,
to give
me an
infamy
check.
No
modifiers.
Okay.
So here's
the question
I gotta ask.
So I
could not
ever add
infamy to
the sheet,
so I'm
just gonna
roll a
1d100.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
For some
reason,
I thought I
fixed it,
and it was
working on a
previous thing,
but I guess
it's just
I'm not
worried.
Sorry about
that.
Oh,
good.
It's all
good.
I pass
with a
16 versus
23.
I will
fail with
a 47
versus
23.
Oh,
it didn't
record my
infamy.
Yeah,
that's the
word we were
mentioning.
Oh,
yeah.
Go to
your
other
character.
Yeah,
I've got it.
I've got it
pulled up.
Lifo
succeeds with
an 11.
Okay,
cool.
That's
great.
That's
awesome.
Byzantine.
Yep.
The dark
gods do
not look
favorably upon
you in this
moment.
Uh-oh.
Roll me a
d100.
You got it,
boss.
Well,
maybe this
roll,
if I roll
it high
enough,
that's a
71.
Okay,
cool.
71 hits
you in the
right leg.
Oh,
fuck.
What?
As
coming from
under the
floor,
an auto
cannon shot
from a
surface-mounted
gun penetrates
the hull.
Oh,
oh,
shit.
Let's
see.
You know,
if you've
fallen,
you can
activate your
chaos alert.
Not your
chaos alert.
That's true.
So,
so you will
take 26
points of
impact damage,
as this
bolt comes
through.
This will go
to your
right leg.
Now,
I
would like
to ask,
does the
bulk of
the fire
raptor
give me
any sort
of additional
armor?
Good,
we're learning
about cover
here.
Yes.
This is a
lesson.
Yeah,
yeah,
yeah.
so in
this
case,
yes,
it will.
It will
increase.
Now,
some of
this is
being like
chalked up
to the
fact that
it has
punctured the
hull.
So,
this will
do,
so let me
just find the
total here.
So,
this will
reduce it
by
for this,
it'll be
about 10,
but it's
got penetration,
so it'll
only be
22 raw
damage
onto you.
Okay,
22 raw.
Now,
my armor
is in
my leg.
Thankfully,
I didn't.
Yeah.
Well,
I am fully
armored.
So,
my AP
is 8.
My toughness
bonus,
it says,
is 8.
It should
be a
natural
toughness.
So,
that should
be a
total of
16 to
soak this
incoming
22 damage.
Yep,
so you'll
take 6
wounds.
Ah!
Damnation!
The red
engine
explodes.
Ah!
You wanted
to get
close!
I feel
we're soon
about to
become far
closer than
you'd like!
Have you
survived the
crash?
This is
precisely
where I
would like
to be!
Get us
in close!
Drop us
on them,
we will
find who
is fired.
The
servitor
in the
front
explodes
as the
cockpit
takes a
shot
through it.
Bethel,
I believe
we're going
to be
getting close
whether you
would like
it or
not.
I
would
like it!
Well,
then you're
getting your
wish,
brother.
Are there
grav
chutes
or parachutes
or anything
of the
sort here?
You know,
that's a
good question.
Typically,
they don't
really make
proper grav
suits for
power armor
individuals.
Thurston,
how high up
are we?
Not much
further from
the surface.
You're coming
in fast.
The abrupt
turn has
kind of
decelerated
your momentum.
Any of
you who,
let's see,
I would say
a good skill
here would
be if
you have
navigation
surface,
you can
give me
a plus
10 check
as you
peer through
the remains
of the
cockpit.
I just
so happen
to have
navigation
surface,
so I
will give
you that.
Challenging?
No,
no,
plus 10.
Okay.
53 is
a failure
because 51
is my
target.
Yeah,
so you're
trying to
look,
but you're
just having
difficulty
seeing
through it.
You know
you're
close.
And then
there is
a big
thump
as the
vessel
plows
itself
into
something.
All of
you are
sent
flying,
but your
power armor
manages to
absorb
most of
the impact.
The sound
of all of
us bouncing
around in
here must
be very,
very loud.
Clang,
clang,
clang,
clang,
clang,
clang.
Personally,
I'm just
glad Thirsten
didn't roll
any ones
after the
vehicle
crashed.
Don't say,
why would you
speak that
into being?
Because that's
the situation
we're in.
I changed
for the
half.
4d6.
Ah,
shit,
two of you
just aren't
leaving this
wreckage.
That's awesome.
That's how
that works.
I'm sorry.
The player
gets to decide,
so the group
gets to decide
which two of you
die with no save
of any kind.
Fuck you.
No,
you manage to
completely just
like kind of
tumble into a
ball together,
which is
convenient because
you don't fall
into the canopy
area because the
cockpit has now
been compressed
all the way
back
to the
rear storage.
The true
miracle here is
that none of
the ammunition
seems to have
exploded.
That is very
likely,
though,
because over
the several
centuries,
you've used
a lot of
the ammunition
and there
isn't a lot
left.
Also,
I would
absorbate
damage,
so I win.
All right.
Yeah.
If the back
is not already
open,
Beth Isle is
just going to
essentially try
to rip his
way out of
what remains
of this.
Give me a
ground athletics
check.
Cephas is going
to help him
kick down the
door.
Yeah.
All right.
Challenging.
For sure.
For sure.
Yeah.
Let's do a
challenging
check.
All right.
I will also
give you a
kick.
Yeah.
I will give
you four
degrees of
success with
a 47.
I will give
you one
degree of
failure with
a 69
versus a
68.
Nice.
Oh,
nice.
Okay.
Okay.
The back
hatch opens
immediately.
it kind of
you managed to
push it
down.
Which I
believe the
fire raptor.
Well,
the storm
eagle has
a rear
hatch.
Yeah.
You managed
to force
open.
Actually,
no,
it doesn't.
It'd be a
side hatch.
So you
managed to
force open
the side
hatch here,
which as
you do so
grants you
exit out to
sort of a
desert terrain
area.
the notable
thing that
your armor
systems
demonstrate
this.
The temperature
here is
incredibly
cold.
It's about
minus 20
degrees Celsius.
Cold.
Beth Isle is
going to
like push
the door
open as
wide as he
can kind of
climb out and
then he's
going to turn
and just
kind of not
really even
thinking about it
offer a hand
for Cephas
to follow.
Cephas
gladly takes
the hand and
hops out of
the open
door landing
on the ground
with a muddy
thump as
the sloshing
noises might be
the mud,
but it can also
be the copious
foul greases
seeping from the
joints of his
armor.
Go.
Do you know
where they are?
We fell
that way,
so they must
be that way.
Can I get a
can I get a
rough trajectory
at all,
Thurston,
with a check
of some kind?
Give me
awareness at
I'd say
in this sort
of temperature
it's nighttime
here,
it's a bit
cold.
I'll say a
routine,
so plus 20
warm.
Okay,
I'll give it
a look.
48 with
one degree of
success,
or two degrees
of success,
excuse me,
compared to
Yeah,
that is enough
for you to
tell that
somewhere in
the distance
there is a
tower that
has a kind
of flashing
red light
on it,
but around
it,
sort of
nestled
behind some
hills,
sort of
appears to
be several
yellow
spotlights.
Ah,
appears to be
an imperial
camp that
far.
Let us go
greet them.
Let's.
They won't
hide in their
tower for
long.
You greet
them over
the course
of the next
three hours,
during which
three different
groups are
dispatched to
try to stop
you, and
all of them
fail.
The first
is a platoon
of guardsmen,
some ten
strong, that
fail to even
notice you
before you
are upon
them.
um, they
melt, they
scream, they
die.
The next
group is
clearly more
more active
in what it's
trying to
accomplish.
They melt,
they scream,
they die.
The third
group is less
a group than
it is a
gaggle of
individuals coming
out in twos
and threes.
They're barely
worth mentioning.
you're now
close to the
area.
It's not
actually a
camp.
Several, um,
lights that
are set up
around what
appears to
be a bunker
of some
sort set
into the
hill.
A tower
outside, uh,
looms up
tall.
On it is a,
is a tower,
um, the
top of which
appears to be
a charred
wreck.
Um, you
would have
enough insight
to know that
the charred
wreck is,
uh, damaged
from probably
a missile
loosed by
your, by
your rap,
fire raptor
as it made
its descent.
Um, a kind
of parting
shot before you
were torn out
of the sky.
The remnants
on the ground
seem to
indicate that
it's some
sort of,
some sort of
anti-aircraft
weapon that
was loosed
upon your
vessel.
And then
there's the
bunker.
The first
to run out
is a man
who seems to
run in the
opposite direction
from you
towards a
vast expanse
of open
desert.
That
individual
is visible
to each
of you
running out.
It's only a
few moments
later
that
a woman
comes out
dazed
she seems
to walk
around
eventually
going
towards
the
wreckage
of the
of the
sort of
the tower
or some
of the
wreckage
that's
fallen to
the ground
and is
on fire
and seems
to take
some kind
of like
solace
by this
fire.
The
the door
to the
bunker
that she's
left
is now
fully
open.
Cephas
will pay
little
mind
to the
two
that are
ambling
out.
One
is obviously
going to
go meet
his maker
in the
middle
of the
you know
icy
night time
of the
desert
or wherever
what time
of day
it is.
It's not
good in
either case
for him
to be
wandering
out there
but hey
that's
his
prerogative.
The other
one does not
concern Cephas
and so
the only
remaining
thing of
interest
for the
Nerglite
Plague
Marine
champion
is
inside
so he
will go
in.
I will
follow
Sepsis
people are
free to
experience
nature in
their own
way
and if
that means
dying and
starving to
death in
the midst
of a
vast
wasteland
that's
their choice
of how
they'd
like to
go.
Happens.
he will
be very
close
behind
and is
in fact
kind of
like almost
hovering over
Cephas's
shoulder.
He's still
like smeared
with blood
after the
handful of
encounters
and is
just kind
of like
anxious
energy
like
behind him
just
well
are we
going
inside?
We are
we are
patients
Lyphus
I am
still
following
with the
group
being
silent.
Can you
give me
a sinus
science
check at
plus 10?
Sure can.
Uh oh.
As I look
into the
void.
That is
an 11
with
five degrees
of success.
11 is
your lucky
number today.
something
within
that
bunker
uh
reeks
of the
immaterium
some kind
of
minor
incursion
a rip
in the
veil.
You would
detect this
as you see
your companions
kind of
striding with
purpose towards
the area.
There's a
debate in my
head.
Yeah.
And I
don't know
what's the
right one.
come into
my office
Zoran.
Sit on the
couch my
friend.
Oh boy.
The tree of
woe.
Dear Thurston,
what else can I
do to try to
ascertain more
about this
rift as
we're traveling?
See if I can
more accurately
get a good
impression of
it before
you know
they encounter
in.
So at this
point you've
sort of
detected it
and it's
like a
stain.
It doesn't
appear to be
like actively
present or
growing in
intensity.
I suppose
my question
is do you
have any
other psychic
powers that
might be
appropriate here?
uh the only
second powers I
have are
uh force bolt
force storm
mind over
matter and
thoughts ending
that I currently
have right now
but uh I do
have forbidden
lore of
demonology.
I can use
yeah you know
what a forbidden
lore demonology
check would
be appropriate
here.
Let's give
me a sec
here pulling
up the old
skill description
table gonna
find out what a
good example
um yeah give
it to me with
a oh plus
10 on this
gotcha.
That is a
20 with
five degrees
of six.
Okay so you
can tell that
what you have
just uh or
what what
happened here
you didn't bear
witness to it
but there was
an incursion by
some sort of
minor minor
demon power
some power of
the emitterium
some manifesting
soul that had
either achieved
apotheosis or
potentially done
the opposite and
reached the apex
of corruption
its soul broke
the veil of the
material world
and manifested
um but it can
only do so with
some sort of
powerful tie
so whatever
is inside that
bunker
likely has the
interest of one
or more of the
great powers
so Lathos
Lathos would
believe this is
like an item
or something
maybe an artifact
that he would
potentially yeah
like something
something in there
it could be a
person like it's
very metaphysical
right it could be
a person an object
it could be the
location itself
has significance
uh Lathos will
stop everyone
for like a
moment
what
I detect
something deep
inside this
structure
something very
dangerous
demon work
has happened
here
well
you are not
the first
to come
no
quite
um
many
interesting
things have
happened here
but I will
warn you
we may be
going into
the meat grinder
whatever you
see
whatever you
feel
try not
to engage
with it
for who
knows
where your
flesh will
be warped
to
who knows
who will
wringe
your body
into
if you
disturb
the wrong
thing
so
our
sorcerer is
laying it on
kind of
thick
can I
try and
see if
there's any
sort of
and I
know that
a worshipper
of siege
would never
try to
lie to
me
but any
sort of
deceit
or hidden
agendas
to his
words
all right
look
we're gonna
we're gonna
we're gonna
establish some
fucking rules
here when it
comes to
player on
player
like
what the
fuck
because
I like
I don't
I don't
want like
every time
to be
like
I must
discern
the
true
meaning
of
blah
blah
blah
blah
blah
blah
I'm not
gonna let
you do
a check
here by
Zanty
that is
sort of
undermining
life
I was like
I don't
want you
to make
like
opposed
checks
here
because I
because again
I don't
even know
like
necessarily
that like
Lifos
is deceiving
in any
real way
but I
would allow
you to
make a
check to
sort of
supplant it
with your
own
knowledge
so if
there is
a
particular
skill you
would like
to employ
here whether
that's like
a forbidden
lore of your
own or
something along
those lines
that maybe
could give
you more
or even
awareness if
you just like
to kind of
get a lay
of the land
before going
now you're
talking yes
I absolutely
would love
to use
awareness
and if I
can in any
way I
would like
the glassy
black eyes
of Byzantine
to scan
out and I
will spend
a half
action to
gain the
senses of
an auspex
as I
as I
send a
little sensor
ping
throughout
the
bunker
or at
the very
least as
much of
it as
I can
see
okay
yeah
so
you basically
that's going
to give you
plus 20
to your
check
which is
good
because this
would be a
minus 20
check so
you can give
me just a
challenging
awareness
test
you got
it and
I do
get to
re-roll
this if
I don't
like it
okay
already
done
so let's
roll
and that's
a 94
I don't
like it
you know
what
don't like
that
we're gonna
go ahead
ooh
one degree
of failure
okay
so what you
are able to
tell
is the
like with
your
your
your
auspexes
and your
senses
you are
able to
tell
that
there
are
two
human
life signs
and as
you're
detecting
this
and as
life
is sort
of giving
the speech
the rest
of you
have turned
almost
starkly
there is
the sound
of a
pistol
discharging
a thumping
sound near
the flames
and then
the life
signs change
to one
and this one
is inside
the bunker
well
my
auspex
is being
blocked
by the
sheer
width
of this
place
but I
hear
the flickering
of a
little
mortal
heartbeat
and I
intend
to be
the first
to it
and with that
I break
off running
as fast
as I can
one
mortal
heart
get back
here
I'm running
after him
yeah
that's fine
that's okay
you are
faster
it sounds
sacrilegious
but yeah
because you
have slightly
higher
actually
my run
speed is
my run
speed is
okay no I'm
faster
yeah no you're
faster
and just like
motions
would you like
to start
sprinting off
into the
darkness as
well brother
no
I believe
we can
enjoy
each other's
company
a little
bit more
as we
take a
straw
patience
is a
virtue
all part
of his
plan
I'm so
sorry
Thurston
I need
to make
a difficulty
minus 10
check to
tell everyone
that there
was a single
human heartbeat
oh my god
oh yeah
that's right
that's true
that's true
you do
right
that's good
you do
okay
okay
okay
all right
so no rules
we're broken
here
everything's
great
that's the
one trick he
has to make
for the whole
session guys
don't worry
for the entire
campaign
it's awesome
no just for
this session
you gotta make
another one
next time
hey uh
hey guy who
makes weird
spreadsheets of
all of the
things that we
do
love you by
the way
if you want
to make a
spreadsheet of
all of the
times
byzanti
has to
see if
he can
give a
basic piece
of information
he would
love that
spreadsheet
yeah
everyone can
help
leave a
comment down
below
see that's
why i had
to check
the zichi
in for
duplicity
because i
knew
that i'm
gonna have
to be
pretty
duplicitous
soon
myself
i want to
know the
point of
order
you see
i'm raising
my hand
real quick
if you
don't mind
as i say
they are
running right
and i
would notice
bethiel
would not
be as
fast as
our
senishi
cousin
right
i think
bethiel
is faster
right
uh no
bethiel
has
three less
meters of
movement
okay
perfect
may i
uh just
as inquire
to you
to see if
this is
okay
and also
uh oh
just for your
care just
as i can
i'm sorry
that i didn't
consult with
you first
for this
type of
stuff
uh is it
okay
if i do
thoughts
with you
okay
if there ever
is a thing
of like hey
i kind of
don't like
that you
feel free
to tell
me
uh just
no no
i love
that shit
that is
such a
zinchian
thing
yeah i
apologize
i should
have at
least ask
first i
didn't
think
about
that
yeah
no worries
um i
want to
propose
that i
would send
more thoughts
out to uh
bethiel
um basically
the the plan
here is to
encourage bethiel
with words of
going you
shouldn't let
this thing
beat you
are you a
weakling like
all this type
of stuff to
help increase
their speed
and to get
there faster
wow
you're gonna
motivate them
yeah
motivate them
okay okay
okay so
this will be
this will be
two checks
um
okay the
first one
the first one
is going to
be a well
we'll do the
psychic power
first see
yeah yeah
see if it
even happens
uh hmm
i want to
risk it
actually no
there's no
reason for me
to go on
fetter because
i would just
have the
same so
i actually
know this
if i two
for psychic
rating
hmm
yeah i'll
go on
fettered i'll
risk it
hopefully i
don't roll
double oh
my god
one scar
brand later
and
that's 50
and that's a
success i
begin to send
messages to
bethiel's mind
of
of basically
trying to
try to emulate
any of the
other coordinates
that i've seen
anybody that
would have been
like maybe
of a higher
position in
our thing to
basically help
bring in some
inspiration uh
or even just
like oh this
possibly you're
seeing someone
better that's
the that's the
type of the
dialogue i'm
trying to go
for where it's
just there's
like you can't
let this you
can't let this
snake beat you
are you weak i
thought you were
better than them
of course you're
pathetic
don't lose
beat him
kill him
first
kill the
human before
he can eat
his heart
it is a race
for blood
do not let
this weakling
beat you
son of
blood
go
and that's
the dialogue
uh sorry
for some
interrupt you
there what
did we like
else we'd like
to meet
with your
three degrees
of success
i will let
you do a
command test
at plus
30 to
see if
this if
this does
motivate
appropriately
gotcha
actually
train
eating
uh plus
that my
target is
going to
be 56
let's see
if i get
it
no 76
so so
this this
has the the
impact of
like rather
than just being
like full
motivation it's
actually just
like causing
a file to
get like
like just
irrationally
angry
yeah bethiel
just like
the the
teeth are
bare the
twitch is
getting worse
he's like
death gripping
the chain
hammer and
has actually
kind of
started
already
revving it
and there's
just like
this cacophonous
sound as he
lets out a
roar behind
byzanti and
uh is not
gonna catch up
to him but
is definitely
advancing
and in that
moment
i'm declaring
it is
it is byzanti
who enters
the room
first
um
hulky crow
describe your
character from
where we last
left them
off
oh my god
oh my god
you guys
didn't piece
it together
i i figured
that that was
a possibility
what a great
way to introduce
himself to us
all hello
evgeny is
backed up
against a
pile of
rucksacks
dead-eyed
jaw slung
low
think
private
pile in
the bathroom
cold
dead
killer
intense
stare
just
breathing
as a
wicked
tiny
grin
creeps up
the side
of his
mouth
and with
one arm
mantles
his last
gun
and aims
it
at byzanti
oh
you're
the last
one
bethel
comes breaking
into the room
at that exact
moment
where are
they
you
where are
the rest
of them
be
gone
there's a
charred corpse
on the floor
there's a
body that seems
to have just
fallen over
dead
there's someone
who has a
terrifying
um like
burst wound
on their head
with a like
rending
chest wound
that is like
violently
spilt out
but the body
seems to have
exploded
around
you did this
little one
no
i
didn't
they couldn't
make the cut
they weren't
they weren't
strong enough
none of
none of us
were
a little
oh
oh throne
lifos
and cephas
come in
at this
point
and hulky
my friend
my compadre
haha
i hate
to do
this to
you
but
you're
kind of
staring
down
like
four
heretic
astartes
as a
human
gonna need
you to
just give
me a
straight
old
willpower
test
sure
what
happens
i would
be happy
to
now
thurston
i have
an important
question
for you
you make
the distinction
that they're
heretic
astartes
does
evgeny
know that
or does
he just
know that
they're the
emperor's
angels
i think
i think
at the
point that
cephas
walks in
something's
up
and probably
life
host
too
based on
the earth
we were
the last
two to
like the
other
two
like having
skin stretched
across your
face
that's one
thing
looking
feral and
nuts
with a
couple
nails
jutting
out of
your
head
also
potentially
just a
little
dubious
having a
sackcloth
with a
bunch of
shit
oozing out
of it
and just
like weeping
like sore
tentacles
followed in
short order
by a
heavily
armored
warrior
with a
floating
skull
for a
head
i think
at that
point
i think
at that
point
that
would
kind
of
i
you know
solidify
it
you know
now that
you say
that that's
actually a
that's a
very fair
point
yeah
yeah
i'll give
you your
willpower
test
that's
right
you will
i love
you
that is
an 88
with five
injuries of
failure
hey
hey
hulky
wanna roll
me a d100
plus 50
fuck
it's a
double
it's a
double
two
listen
i'm just
saying
the 88
that could
mean
something
i wouldn't
i wouldn't
dwell on
that one
honestly
oh
fuck
plus 50
that's gonna
be 132
oh my god
don't make it
don't make it
the don't talk
to this person
modifier
please
it's so much
better
it's so much
better
don't you
do not tell
me i'm mute
no no no no
no no no
no this is
this isn't a
disorder
this is your
response to
the shock
oh okay
okay i'm here
i'm here
okay okay
okay i'm here
i'm waiting
okay the first
part of this
the character
laughs hysterically
okay following me
following me
following me
yep and
attacks anyone
near him in a
manic frenzy
firing wildly
or using any
weapon he has
now i know
your shitty
weapon cannot
possibly hurt
erndel so i
am going to
make you like
as cephas
walks in
yeah i'll
accept that
cephas immediately
walks over to
the uh crouched
and beginning to
go mad with
terror form of
evgeny
wait wait wait
wait i need to
make sure he
doesn't crit you
just just roll the
attack for me
go for it
uh yeah okay
we're gonna
overcharge that
make sure to
target him
yeah yeah
yeah yeah
yeah
which one are
you let the
schusting begins
i'm right here
you can figure
you are
cool cool
yeah put it
put the tokens
watch this
somehow kill him
i know
it's like watch
it be like
zealous hatred
maximum like
blood loss
double fail on
the blood loss
table uh and
of course cephas
would take one
wound i'm gonna
if i if i die
right here all my
blight all 100 of
my blight grenades
go off and you
all eat shit and
die with me
oh well no you
got it okay so
that's one hit
five degrees of
success so that
is an extra
three hits
how much damage
yeah oh yeah
that's right
that's right
that's right
fuck your right
leg in particular
petting two
hmm wait
nine
um yeah okay
so nine points
of damage to the
right leg
okay i believe
that just bounces
off you
yeah so with my
with my total
armor on my
leg being uh
let's see
wait hulky
were you firing
full auto
of course
i thirst and
safe to assume
no matter what i
do i will be
firing overcharge
you please
remember i don't
think you can
aim in full
auto i don't
think
i believe
full auto
but it's overcharged
so it gives me
four every degree
oh no you can
yeah yeah you
absolutely can
yeah you're just
minus 10 for the
full auto
okay yeah
cool cool cool
yep
yeah carry on
carry on keep
rolling keep
okay so
let me look what
are the numbers
i'm working with
here
well so first of
all you're getting
hit in the leg
okay which leg
right leg
yeah right leg
okay so that's
armor armor value
eight for my
power armor
right
uh yeah
and then toughness
bonus of 10
yes
so how much
damage am i taking
again
so what was the
total damage you
had hulky
because it was
and then ped
two
yep
so you you
take two points
from that
okay
that's it
this madman may
have more use to
us he may have
some information
as to what
happened here
i'm going to
use the cleaved
response in such
situations
i he lunges
over and tries
to knock
evgeny unconscious
um i'm going
to allow you
to lunge
uh evgeny give
me another
willpower test
sure
and the
willpower test
plus zero
plus zero
all right
plus zero
i really like
eight
you failed
with an eight
you failed to
snap out of
it
um
do uh
let me check
here
cephas
do you
have
gosh
do you
have
command
uh
let me
check
i don't
i do
yes
do you
want to
give me a
command
at a
plus 20
to like
as you
grab him
basically
be able
to do
the sort
of
snap him
out of
it
oh i
was just
going to
knock him
unconscious
i was
going to
punch
i'll
allow you
to make
command
to represent
knock him
unconscious
so okay
any penalty
to that
challenging
no no no
plus 20
in fact
i'll give
you a
bonus on
it
let's see
what i
get
yeah
uh
73 compared
to 64
so like
you're
you're
basically
like
coming over
using your
one free
hand
to try
to like
cause
him
to go
um
evgeny
is like
laughing
hysterically
um
like
still just
like
at the
ludicrous
of this
um
are the
rest of
you doing
anything
or are you
just kind
of letting
this play
out
yeah
i think
i'm going
to move
to action
here
um
seeing as
the situation
i'm going
to try
and get
behind
evgeny
okay
and uh
while he
sort of
focused on
the
disgusting
pestilential
asshole
i want to
try to get
right
close
like
within
like
arm's
reach
of him
yeah
for sure
so you're
just kind
of positioning
yeah
positioning
behind him
and once
i get
into position
i'm just
going to
say to
him
little
mortal
look
behind
you
and i'll
whisper
into his
ear
you can
give me
one more
willpower
this time
at plus
okay
no
that's
a 100
you pass
out
you pass
out
you just
you just
fucking
pass out
you can
he's no
good
very bad
damn
am i
good
i'll pick
up
you've
genny
and put
him in
my
inventory
hey
hey
i was
already
engaging
with him
you can't
take him
out of
my grip
i will
fight
you
for
him
i'm
sorry
please
don't tear
me
in half
i'm
very
sorry
however
byzanti
picks up
yevgeni
and puts
him in
his
inventory
i'm gonna
i'm gonna
grapple
with him
to stop
him from
taking
control
of the
one
human
what
exactly
do you
want
simply
put
i don't
want you
to be
toting
him
around
with
all
of
your
armor
spiked
as it
is
you're
going
to
gouge
his
little
throat
out
okay
i'm
sorry
that
your
character
is
about
to
be
ripped
in
half
i was
gonna
say
don't
let him
rip
me
in
half
don't
make
him
roll
for it
also
i like
to imagine
as byzanti
trying to
put him
in
like
he has
to
like
rotate
him
put
him
in
his
resident
slot
like
try
to
find
like
the
right
amount
no
no
no
i pick
up
evgeny
and i
put him
in the
item
box
and i
take out
the mask
of
i take
out two
masks
and i'm gonna
go beat up
george
trevor now
you can only
fit him in
your inventory
if you take
out the
broken
butterfly
that's
true
that's
true
do you
have your
sigillite
cube on
you
we'll
stuff
them
in
the
cube
and
i'm
cubed
i'm
going
to
focus
my
attention
on
seppis
now
now
brother
you can't
be so
obscene
as to
think
that i
wanted to
break
this
plaything
no
i simply
helped you
pacify him
but need i
remind you
that i saw
him first
and i did
deign to
share that
little secret
with you
now didn't
i
take him
as you
wish
brother
just don't
kill him
never my
intention
i want to
make this
one
a special
project
of ours
you hear
the sound
of three
extremely
loud
wet
eye
opening
and closing
noises
from inside
of seppis's
hood
very well
if getting
you returned
to consciousness
at this
exact moment
oh my god
what do my
surroundings look
like
the same
yeah you
like i don't
know
we haven't
gone anywhere
yeah you're
looking up
there's like
two
no no
there's just
two two
large astartes
above you
uh one is
byzante
one is
cephas
you've you've
regained a bit
of your mental
faculties after
your your
kind of
break
you
you
you
you
you
you
aren't
us
you
weren't
who is
us
the faithful
the faithful
the ex
faithful
ex faithful
it's
it's
it's almost
poetic
isn't it
we
the most
devout
loyal
and
impermeable
servants
of him
on terror
left to
rot
with knives
in our
backs
by one
even
holier
than us
and
wouldn't
luck
have it
and the
one
group of
people
could have
stopped
them
one
thing
that we'd
fought against
shows up
after the
fires had
already
gone
out
how
trite
how
perfect
it is
and
Evgeny
will
bang on
Byzanti's
chestplate
a futile
pathetic
thing that it
is this
little human
smashing
against
Saramite
why
couldn't
you have
saved us
why
couldn't
you have
helped
I'm going
to lean
in
very
close
and I'm
going to
whisper
so
tenderly
in
Evgeny's
ear
but
I am
here
to save
you
to save
you
let the
nerve
fleet
clear
to
enhance
speakers
things
so sorry
I thought
you were
down
on that
one
no
no
no
no
you're
fine
I left
a big
pregnant
pause
there
I will
I know
I'm using
it a lot
but it's
very appropriate
because I was
testing it out
at first
and now I'm
like oh
this will
be fun
thoughts
ending
again
onto
Evgeny
but I'm
going to
repeat
everything
that Byzantie
is saying
and
I will
I'll throw
this to you
speaker if you
would like to
do it
I want you
to do it
now in the
voice of
the emperor
oh
how
magnificent
is it
Evgeny
well first
I have to
roll
but first
there's another
important thing
about thoughts
ending
Evgeny
do you
want to
receive
outside
thoughts
of course
of course
he does
that is
that is
that is
an important
rule
that is
you can't
just do
it
like
if you
do it
to someone
who doesn't
want to be
contacted
in that
way
they do
get to
make a
willpower
test
to
bypass
it
as I
just
found
out
from
reading
it
sorry
about
that
I had
my
summary
here
wrong
for the first
couple
things
Hulky
is that
okay
first off
I want
to say
yes
but Thurston
this is
actually
crucial
to my
decision
making
process
here
am I
allowed
to
dean
if I
can
decline
this
or want
to not
receive
the
thoughts
upon
first
hearing
the
voice
at which
point
I
would
make
the
opposed
test
or
is
it
in
advance
of
even
hearing
anything
it's
it's
in
advance
it's
like
you
feel
something
in
your
mind
and
it's
like
does
your
mind
naturally
rebel
against
that
outside
presence
or
not
my
thought
process
is
simple
this
is
a
formerly
trained
fanatically
loyal
servant
of the
emperor
that
being
said
he's
going
through
a
crisis
of
faith
and
witness
something
that
no
mortal
should
really
exist
and
see
or
certainly
not
live
to
see
the
other
side
of
so
I
think
that
it's
up
to
a
coin
toss
and
with
the
two
or
tails
on it
I
say
yes
okay
I was
going to
say
because
if
you
said
no
you'd
still
probably
fail
the
well
power
test
anyways
this
is
where
Zoran
will
explode
the
immaterium
yeah
yeah
yeah
this
is
where
I'm
going
to
kill
everybody
yeah
but also
just to
clarify
you're
okay
with it
hulking
for
yes
okay
make sure
you get
consent
and just
to make
sure
speakers
that
okay
if I
hop
on your
thing
to
enhance
you
this
way
yeah
make
sure
everyone's
good
I
will
do
it
unfettered
let's
see
if
I
blow
everybody
up
fuck
that's
a
failure
if
we
can't
do
infamy
to
like
re-roll
or
anything
can we
no
no
okay
that's
what
the
infamy
stuff
is more
for like
modifying
and whatnot
so
yeah
I can't
remember
the rules
super well
is it
like adding
like a
plus 10
or something
to it
or whatever
or
it's
double
yeah
so it's
no
no
no
so if
you're
unfettered
it's
only
on doubles
that
you
no
on infamy
thing
oh
on infamy
um
that
is
one sec
sorry
I don't
remember
your options
kind of
depend
right
now
um
uh
okay
so
for you
you can
use it
to remove
all levels
of fatigue
you can
heal wounds
and critical
damage
and add
plus 10
to a single
roll
before rolling
okay
that's what
you can
you currently
use it
for
once you
get up
to 21
through 60
infamy
that's
when you
can do
a reroll
okay
uh
so
I have
so
if I
23 infamy
yeah
unless that was
the total
yeah so
so
okay so
so sorry
if you
if you have
23 infamy
then you're
in that
second bracket
or sorry
my bad
corruption points
my bad
what is
your total
corruption
point
that's
the number
we're looking
for
six
yeah so
so it's
not gonna matter
until you're
like at 21
corruption
you have to
be more corrupt
to do crazy
things with infamy
okay my bad
uh there's a failure
then my bad
sorry to stop
everyone there
no no you're
you're good
all right
you're good
let me carry on
speaker
what the hell
was I saying
uh
it's like
it's like
I am here
to save you
yes
it's me
I
I
am here
to save
you
what
better
to save
you
and shepherd
you away
from the
delusional
false
hope
and false
promise
of the emperor
than one
who wears
his own
akeela
one of his
very own
children
and I
extend
my hand
to him
again he'll
take a
pause
considering
the rose
gallery
for him
death
to false
gods
and he will
take
Byzantine
his hand
death
to the
false
emperor
death
to the
false
emperor
death
to the
false
emperor
death
to him
that is
one thing
we can
agree on
put him
down
if he is
conscious
he can
walk
very well
and I will
happily
do so
and
look down
at
Evgeny
welcome
to the
service of
the ruinous
powers
I do
hope you
enjoy your
stay
come
show us
around
this
bunker
tell
us
what
secrets
lie
within
hold
a moment
what is
your name
small one
Evgeny
sir
Evgeny
Evgeny
Prendergast
Evgeny
him
Prendergast
these were
your former
comrades
they were
which one
is your
kill
Evgeny
Evgeny
looked down
to
the one
who he
had the
honor of
putting
out of
their
misery
on the
floor
it's
it's
that
important
now
no
it is
important
now
that one
yes
yes
good
then prove
it
you are
moving on
from this
false
emperor
and he's
going to
reach
onto his
belt
and he's
going to
pull out
his spare
chainsword
and hold
the
hilt
out
to
Evgeny
take
his
head
oh
his head
was already
shot through
take it off
the rest of
his body
keep it
his body
exploded
it exploded
yeah
yeah
the
the
the
first out
of it
yeah
out of it
but it's
still
like
oh
right
right
right
yeah
he's
still
got a
skull
can I
nearly
declare
there's
a skull
for
Hulk's
character
to take
can I
narratively
declare
that there
is
no
okay
I'll allow it
I just
I just don't
want I don't
want fans being
like Thurston
let them
take a head
even though
he said
the guy
clearly
exploded
this is
on the
players
not
my
continuity
is on
point
carry
on
did he
atomize
from
blowing
up
he
turned
into
a
fucking
pile
of
sludge
I do
feel like
it is
in character
for Beth
I.L.
to be like
looking at a
bunch of
chunky salsa
and be like
you killed
this
okay
take its
head
go dig
around a
bit
it would
be really
funny to
see
hulky
crow's
first
action
as a
chaos
worshipper
being
the
having
to
talk
back
to
your
first
task
in
chaos
school
piece
together
the
sides
of
bone
to
make
one
chaos
puzzle
put
your
friend
skull
back
together
again
he'll
look at
Beth I.L.
offering
his
chainsword
and
put his
hand up
shake
his head
of
no
no
and
he'll
draw
his
own
chainsword
and
rev it
and take
it to
his
fallen
comrade's
neck
cleaving
a twain
of his
shoulders
there's
like a
sloshing
sound
bone
breaks
off
and
sort of
this
spinal
disconnection
good
and
Beth I.L.
will give
him a
big
brass
toothed
smile
now we
can go
hey
Halky
yeah
okay
yeah
yeah
let me
get D
please
fuck
he's
gonna
pass
out
again
oh
no
no
he's
not
scheme
of
tables
so you
do
this
you see
for a
moment
like
the
blood
pool
by this
exploded
headless
body
almost
like
seems
to
bubble
and
boil
and
there's
like
a
faint
breeze
that
blows
by
you
and
the
rest
of
you
feel
this
too
and
like
you
all
universally
get
the
feeling
that
somewhere
in
the
galaxy
something
really
bad
just
happened
cool
hey
Thirsten
what was
that
I love
that
that was
the
the
one
zero
one
to
zero
three
result
on the
psychic
phenomenon
table
oh
so something
really fucked
up happened
but it's
not our
problem
oh that
was
that was
pie brain
blowing up
reebs
fucking
medical
facility
true
it's all
connected
comes
back
well then
if we've
indulged
ourselves
taking a few
souvenirs
I do
believe we
had a purpose
here on this
desolate rock
it was his
cue
be respectful
I'll be
respectful
as I've
been
respectful
by not
uh
abandoning
our newest
child to the
caprices of his
former shepherd
now
we have a
bunker that we
need to find
the secrets
of
I believe
Evgeny
was just
about to
take us
on a
tour
so
so Evgeny
you know that
this bunker is
not much more
than this
and like
three additional
rooms
in which are
just some
sleeping areas
well
um
the most
that I
could tell
you
not for
want of
hiding
anything
this is
just uh
it's
it's just
for sleeping
here
there's really
not much
in this
bunker
you're welcome
to poke
around
knock down
whatever
walls
you can
but
there's
truly
nothing
left in
here
I'm
more that's
left
then what
were you
defending
nothing
each other
the pass
I look
down at
the dead
bodies
on the
ground
look back
to Evgeny
good job
wow
damn
it's got
fucked up
damn
it's got
fucked up
man
do better
listen
I've just
saved your
life
I can't
get
you'll
deal
with it
he has
that sort
of sense
of humor
two came
up before
we walked
down here
one sprinted
off into
the desert
and is liable
to die
and meet
his fate
the other
seems to
have been
sort of
aimlessly
wobbling
about
we didn't
bother with
her
what's
their
predilection
guardsman
we were
drawing straws
to see
who would
go out
there
next
really
just
buying
time
with
dwindling
supplies
waiting
for the
inevitable
horrific
end
waiting for
us
outside
one of
my
colleagues
tried to
cheat
the rest
of us
and
Mugenie
looks down
at his
severed
head
needless
to say
he
his
decisions
didn't
pan out
well for
him
but
she
must have
ran out
in hysterics
after watching
her comrades
turn on
each other
she seemed
quite
placid
if anything
and Thurston
it's at this
point
that
Cephas
is kind
of piecing
together
that
the
entirety
of the
bunker
seemed to
have been
sending
people
out
to
meet
us
correct
whoops
well
you'd also
have enough
to know
Cephas
because you
would have
come in
a bit
later
that
woman
she
she
she shot
herself
like
that was
the
auspex
reading
that
that
that
Byzantie
was doing
that once
she sat
down
and kind
of had
a moment
she
shot
herself
I
actually
didn't
tell anyone
about that
no
no
well
I guess
you would
have
seen
it
but
but
I
mean
it
was
an
open
area
you
would
have
seen
in
any
event
the rest
of them
have met
their
fates
and you
are the
only
one
left
besides
the
one
sprinting
into
the
desert
but
he
shall
be
in
father
nurgle's
embrace
in
due
time
if
you
are
all
that
is
left
at
this
Cephas
just
kind
of
looks
around
at
the
squalid
kind
now
thoroughly
pointless
fortification
surrounding
them
little
hole
in the
ground
I
suppose
that
means
that
there
is
nothing
left
of
note
here
no
nothing
at
all
just
ashes
capital
do you
have
any
explosives
guardsman
there
might
be
some
in
one
of
these
rucksacks
let me
take a
look
it
was
a
very
clear
and
important
part
of
our
first
session
that
there
were
no
grenades
or
explosives
to be
found
in
here
we
had
an
entire
NPC
who
spent
many
rounds
trying
to
find
those
explosives
that
is
true
yeah
so you're
pretty sure
like you
actually think
about it
as you
say
and you're
like
wait
a
second
no
no
no
they
tried
to blow
us
up
it
didn't
work
Thurston
is there
anything
around
that
repurpose
as an
explosive
like say
a plasma
generator
of some
kind
um
there's
there's
like a
a small
um
like
prometheum
tank
unit
you could
probably
like
detonate
to
cause a
big
fire
inside
well
brothers
i believe
we need
to bring
our new
convert
with us
we should
make
efforts
to
raise
this
facility
to the
ground
for as
little
use
as it
has
defending
this
pass
i do
so
love
the
pointlessness
that is
afforded
to such
positions
it's
so
righteous
how
pointless
it
is
question
how are
we supposed
to get
back to
our ship
well
our friend
evgeny
is clearly
going to
tell us
where we
can obtain
a space
worthy
vehicle
to return
to our
vessel
isn't that
right
evgeny
do you
really think
if i was
here
right now
i would
know
where a
spaceship
would be
brothers
think again
do you
mean to
tell me
that
you had
only the
one
ship
with which
to ferry
us to
the ground
that's
actually a
good
question
because we
have been
using the
same one
for this
long
first
do we
have
i assumed
we didn't
have a
second one
you do
not
currently
have a
secondary
means of
transit
excuse me
a moment
i need
to very
quickly
make a
difficulty
minus 10
with
power check
oh no
thank you
thank you
thank you
please
byzanti
will simply
say i
know many
secrets
and then
not say
anything
rage beating
i have an
inquiry with
you
yes
yeah
this is
gonna
this is
gonna
take a
little bit
of
information
how long
has it
been since
they pulled
me
specifically
off of
the
space
hulk
and have
they been
in contact
at all
with the
rest of
the cleaved
or am i
basically out
here nowhere
relative
timeline wise
and remember
that's the
weird thing
relative
timeline wise
you have been
together for a
few decades
with them
okay
good
at any
point
could we
i would assume
that the cleaved
did not just
think he's
gone forever
i would have
tried to have
reached out
at that point
right
yeah
absolutely
you would
have made
contact
in fact
some of
the crew
has even
departed
and come
back from
other events
since then
but you
all always
manage to
come back
together
can
would it be
an impossibility
that the cleaved
gave us a little
bit more resource
than nothing
um
without going
into details
i will say
in this
particular
instance
no you
are
you are
hooped
in terms
of
what you
have to
call upon
to come
ferry you
you will
have to
find a way
off this
planet
now
now
now
now
that being
said
that being
said
there are
certainly
there are
certainly
ways for you
to approach
this
there's
a ton
of
information
so
a couple
of things
if you
have
forbidden
lore
the long
war
or
i'll even
count the
horus heresy
as part of
that that's
fine
if you have
common
lore
the imperium
you can
make me
plus 20
checks on
both of
those to
maybe come
up with
some good
information
i have
the long
war so
i'm going
to make
a check
via the
long
war
i will
also
do
absolutely
may i
contribute
with a
survival
i will
fail
uh
let's
see
i'll
check
that one
might be
a bit
of a
stretch
i'll
ask you
getting
some
questions
sorry
yeah
i have
rolled an
with six
degrees
of success
for forbidden
lore
long war
okay
um
you can give
me a survival
check odo
it's going
to be at
minus 20
minus 20
okay
yes
it's very
funny that i
have forbidden
lore long
war considering
i wasn't a
part of it
i'll give
you two
degrees of
success
okay um
so the
long war
like it
represents the
conflict in
your knowledge
of the overall
conflict it's
much so like
if you're born
into a war
you've probably
been like raised
like knowing
about it you
you didn't
necessarily have
to live it to
know it
i like the
rest of these
three who
were like oh
we're at
terror
yeah
yeah exactly
exactly
all right
so um
and question
evgeny did you
have imperium
uh lore
uh i do
yeah you want
to give me a
plus 20 check
on that
in fact plus
30 plus 30
because you've
lived here
oh i'm sorry
no i have
imperial guard
lore i don't
have imperium
lore
god damn it
okay well
yeah i don't
see imperium
lore
imperium is in
common it's
below imperial
guard
oh you're
right i'm
stupid i think
it's all
imperium
it makes it
together in my
mind they're
all that it's
all the same
crap it's fine
which common
lore it's
imperial guard
you have
that's i've
worn make
sure make
sure on your
character sheets
to check the
ones you have
yep i have the
ones that i have
some of you
some of you
have not to
check the
ones you
have so
oh yeah
um okay
actually give
me uh give
me tech give
me common
lore tech
sure
plus wow
yeah plus
20 plus
wow
wow
very successful
52 degrees
i'm gonna
narrate
exactly how
each of you
know what
you respectively
know
uh first
of all
Evgeny you
know that
this world
vancelis's
world is in
the uh
chinchare
system which
is near the
eye of terror
uh it is a
rogue star that
is plagued by
gravitic storms
um it is
actually closer
to the halo
stars than it
is to most
imperial space
it is a far
off world
um reputed
for a a
supposed um
not quite saint
but venerated
holy figure
vancelis um
who walked
the the the
who walked
in some
point in
the past
several thousand
years the
exact date
doesn't quite
um it isn't
consistent we'll
put it that
way uh but
what you do
know is that
there is
vancelis city
the only major
settlement on
this planet
um and this
is where your
knowledge sort
of comes into
uh overlap with
Evgeny's in
that that city
has several
trans atmospheric
shuttles um it's
not quite a
hive city but
it's one of
those cities
that's in that
state of pre
hive city where
they're about to
start ascending
rather than
expanding um so
that that that
one settlement and
that was in fact
where you were
planning on on
getting close to
before you were
shot down so
unceremoniously so
vancelis city is
likely your best
bet to get off
the planet uh
beth iel during
the during the
briefing which
you don't remember
much there was a
city with lights
and usually there's
aircraft in city
with lights
nod nod nod nod
yeah there is a
city i think there
would be aircrafts
there well then
it seems our next
course of action
is already well
and truly obvious
we go to the city
we plunder it for
all that it's worth
and we leave with
a brand new fire
raptor or other
suitable replacement
we will need
information and the
best course to
guarantee your
success lesser
being glyphos
regards to you
guinea
fuck
damn i mean
space springs
there's almost have
the opinion that
like normal
you don't
you're okay
dude
kill him
i'm not being
defensive on i'm
just explaining
because i know
someone online is
going to go
oh my god
it don't work
oh my god he's
racist space marine
is racist
oh my god
this is black crusade
if they're not up
with it at this
point they're never
going to be up with
it
glyphos will regard
that you
to indicate that he's
talking to him
oh
yes sir
you told me that
you are not aware
of what spaceships
are but
you must have
you must have
knowledge of where
you were first
deployed
a base camp
thurston
where
where was our
first deployed
on this world
oh
oh it's here
like your little
unit
is this bunker
that is at the
opposite end
of the pilgrim's
path
which is important
because the only
way to reach
van celeste city
from the great
wasteland of this
world
is through the
pilgrim's path
so you are stationed
on the opposite
side of a
grueling
um canyon
strewn
um pathway
that you know
fanatics
take to
prove their
um
their
their loyalty
and fidelity
to the emperor
and you were put
on the opposite
side of it
well sir
if you can
he'll gesture
around
throw up his
arms
you're looking
at it
it's a bunker
this is not
a base camp
you were to be
originated from
a base camp
to then be
deployed here
what path
did you take
to get here
pardon my
ignorance sir
but it appears
that yours
eclipses even
mine
i have nothing
to hide from
you nor
pretense of
hiding anything
and it
is all
he grabs
him
grabs him
by the neck
and lifts
him up
you know
if you
press
a little
harder
on my
jaw
you might
be able
to snap
my neck
right there
guardsman
cease the
self-destruction
and answer
his question
i'm not
trying to be
self-destructive
i'm trying
to educate
he might
be able
to kill
me faster
if it's
what he
wants
you're
being
snarky
and it's
not helping
i think
it's helping
quite well
i like
this one
don't you
dare kill
him
if you
do
you'll
answer
to me
i have
if you
wouldn't
mind
just
moving
your
thumbs
slightly
sir
he keeps
it where
it is
and as
he says
fair enough
as he
says
like
i will
not take
talk back
from a
lesser
being
i have
asked a
perfectly
reasonable
question
for anyone
who would
understand
military
logistics
but i
see you
are fairly
uninformed
uneducated
just like
the rest
of the
slop
the emperor
sends
to the
fields
now
he drops
him
uh
just like
the height
that he
has
what
is the
path
that leads
you
to the
main
base
what
are you
guarding
so we
may use
there as a
path to
our
resolution
i've
told you
i don't
know
this
was
our
forward
operating
base
i'm not
sure how
versed you
are how
much you
know of
the
inquisition
or of a
certain
axiom
that goes
along the
lines of
knowledge is
power
guarded
well
we were
kept so
blissfully
ignorant
of our
purpose
here
and through
our
training
we are
taught to
not ask
questions
lest we
end up
like my
former
comrade
there
floor
the most
that i
know
and again
i am
happy
to provide
is that
we are
at the
end of
a very
long
path
pilgrim's
road
ends
here
which
stretches
through
the
wastes
to
van
celeste
city
it is
likely
where
spaceport
is
if there
is
any
greater
installation
it will
probably
be there
or along
the way
believe
me
when i
say
i have
no
intention
to
disrespect
or
delude
you
sir
and you
may be
ascended
far beyond
anything i
am capable
of
but i
will not
brook that
same
disrespect
from you
i don't
fear death
it would be
a welcome
a welcome
change at
this point
don't worry
we'll keep you
very much
alive
it's much
better
this way
now lead
us
on the
right
path
so we
too
can make
a pilgrimage
right
i'm not
sure how
you lot
fare
without
your
helmets
or
rebreathers
but i
might need
to fashion
myself a
little shawl
before we
leave here
it's rather
harsh
outside
by all
means
and do
you have
any
vox
relays
that maybe
you were
using to
communicate
with the
superior
they were
in the
tower that
blew up
there's
a
there should
be a
tower
outside
that's
what we
were using
to try
and vainly
contact anybody
else to reinforce
us to get
us out
before you
betrayed
oh the
one the
pilot blew
up
ah
well there's
your answer
it seems as if
all roads lead
to the road
well i don't
mind a nice
sprightly hiking
trip
do you
it sure beats
scalathrax
eh
is it simply
a walk
through the
canyon
or is there
a vehicle
we can take
no
if there
was another
vehicle outside
it would
likely have
been taken
by one
of my
comrades
or blown
up in
the
previous
firefights
i just
imagine
you cut
to beth
il like
taking a
hammer
like an
hour
out
to
some
fucking
koronk
i was thinking
that too
that would have
been really
useful
looking at beth
il like
what
suspiciously
car-shaped
lump
just
oh i think
they hit me
with the
truck
the car
with the
suspiciously
suspiciously
beth il shaped
crater in it
yeah
no it's got
it's got like
bite marks
on the side
i'm just thinking
the secret
level
of space
brain animation
but beth il
just smash
roll back
the bit
roll back
the bit
i'm pretty
sure there
was a
torox
outside it
one
did you
see one
on the
way
oh
yes there
was a
torox
ah
great
i think
what
i think
this is
beth il
like
reach into
his mouth
and like
pry out
like a
little
scrap
of
metal
i think
this is
what
remains
of
it
well
beth il
just
throws it
on the
ground
or
does he
throw it
on the
ground
or just
gives it
to
evgenny
he
hands
it
to
him
evgenny
looks
down
at
this
slobber
knocked
piece
of
scrap
from
a
former
torox
did
you
eat
kah
cephis
will
put his
hand
in
between
them
and
say
you
see
he
found
the
torox
destroyed
by
a
rocket
weapon
of
some
kind
anti-tank
anti-armor
presumably
to stop
you
from
leaving
he
decided
to
commemorate
the
occasion
by
eating
the
rear
bumper
i
was
trying
to
dislodge
it
my
hands
were
occupied
with
my
hammer
and
so
i
had
to
get
inside
somehow
makes
perfect
sense
sometimes
i
forget
how
embarrassing
it
is
to
associate
with
you
are
you
supposed
to
roll
a
tech
to
say
the
inside
voice
is
outside
first
i don't
know
i don't
know
man
that's
common
knowledge
i was
i was
selfish
is trying
not to
let
you
get
you
know
that
we're
the
ones
responsible
for
wiping
out
his
entire
crew
his
you
know
platoon
and
all
the
vehicles
here
and
we're
just
like
oh
yes
i
ate
the
car
why
did
you
eat
the
car
well
it
was
a
memorial
i was
trying
to
get
inside
and
i
was
already
too
busy
holding
my
hammer
the
only
person
who
knew
how
to
drive
it
was
bill
coughs
up
bill's
dog
i was
thinking
of
the
car
because
it
was
a
memorial
i was
debating
so hard
the
punctuate
bath
iel
thing
or
it's
ever
so
it's
like
oh
we
totally
killed
all
those
people
yeah
they
were
all
wearing
his
uniform
you
ain't
car
was
a
can i
scrutinize
that
statement
maybe we
get a
move on
before the
night gets
colder or
else our
guardsman friend
may freeze to
death in the
desert
okay okay
okay here's what i'm gonna do
because i have no faith in
hulky
one second
thank you
you're picking up
you're welcome
come on now
you're welcome
you're welcome
come on now
you're welcome
okay okay okay okay
okay okay
so um
i'm gonna let you
and i don't even know if you have this trained i don't care i'm gonna let you make a logic test at plus 30 the literal highest i can give you it is a puzzle or riddle that is very basic with few possible solutions great great great great
do that
plus three an easy test my target's 55 i foresee eights in my future
yay
oh shit
wait oh yeah your your your number your number there is is messed up but you are you succeed with the 22 you succeed with the 22 you are pretty sure that these are the people who murdered everyone you knew here
oh i was trying to avoid that
yeah but like it's pieced it together pretty
after pretty confident after beth isle spat up a license plate
yes i mean i thought it would be pretty obvious
yeah
yeah
no we're awesome we're here to save him
i mean he might just play along because he's fucking terrified
no look i'm an ultramarine i'm blue and gold see
last i'll remember most ultramarines didn't have a skull for a head
all right hang on a second
the reavers too
warhammer 40k white space marine chapters
the black templars they're not white
yes they are
moving on
the declaration has been cancelled
sorry guys this is over
what are you talking about i'm with the white scars can't you tell my armor is white
no we are not continuing
there you go
next bit
next bit
the helpos where the lifeos will begin to exit out of the bunker
um as he begins to wait expectantly for the rest of his companions and the lesser creature to come forth with them to lead him away
yeah i'm going to make sure not to leave abgenny out of my sight
in part because i know that it's creepy but also because i don't want the coronate to like
eat get hungry and eat him or something
i already ate
right um all right i guess the torox is gone so we can just walk to the city that's great cool
wonderful i get the feeling we're going to get to know each other very well evgeny
how long is the walk from here to the city
oh several days
50 years
days
it's pretty far away
are there any other outposts
there might be along the road but i'm not rightly sure which
are uh
still alive at this point
we would do well to make haste secure an exfiltration and return to the ship
it's about 200
it's it's on the it's on the the better part of how about 180 kilometers away so better part of three days travel
for a second i thought you were going to say 180 days and i'm like we're going to get to know each other really well
well the problem though is is the problem though is is that's for like evgeny um cephas is a bit slower
um
um
yeah we have to move
how is cephas slower than me
we have to move at land speed
he is a nurgle spacer
my god
i move five inch
i understand that my armor is perpetually leaking rusted slime
and i am filled with nurgle's gifts
yeah but you have like double my height your stride is longer or at least the same size
your stride is longer or at least the same length
yeah but he likes to take it all in with every step
what is your what is your agility
tell me your agility right now
oh no no yeah no i'm definitely faster than you i have a 50
oh my god
i am the slowest of all of us with 33 agility
my my move speed is uh
i'll see you tomorrow
how bro with no car says i'll see you tomorrow when he leaves the function just walks off into the fog silent hill too style
i'm gonna find my wife
okay so with with cephas in tow
it's gonna take five days
fight me
five days
then if it is going to take this long
do you have any provisions left
so you do not die on the road
yeah i have a few mres i should be okay
good
i survive with less for longer
you can survive longer if he brings his ex-friend along
i'm not eating my friends
car that was out of character
it's like
you should eat your friends
you should eat your friends
you should kill your friends
hey trust us
we we we're here to save you
we're your new friends
you should eat the corpses of
your former friends
hey uh
hey listeners just on your bingo card
zorn cannibalism
you need to mark that one off
oh yeah yeah yeah
there it is
there it is
nope
uh
so it sounds like with that
um with some mre
um
and in some general uh
general understanding
you're gonna you're gonna start moving
you're gonna start moving out
that's the plan
that's correct
i'm still hung up on
beth i hell
just look at him over after that statement
i i promise i'll move on
just hey
you could eat your friends
zorn
read the quote
i get to read one
i kept thinking
i keep getting passed up
no
look i just
i know every time i give you text to read
you're like
oh my gosh i can't read it
so i'm giving you
i'm starting you off
i'm starting you off on the training wheels
you're fucking stupid
that's why i skip you
you've said that to me like eight times across our shows
but if i give you text
you're just like
he said give me five words
i think there was one time i did this
and you're like thirst and i can't read
chat is he really laughing or is he buying time to make sure he can read this quote i've given him
you decide
i can't say the five words
i can't say the five words
i can't say the five words
i can't say the five words
you've gotten to do a decade of voiceover work
have you just intuited all your fucking lines sir
yeah i've just been raw docking it the entire time
it's all been a fluke
it's impressive
all those radio ads i've read and jobs
all the voice acting roles
nah
i just wing it
i just imagine that words are there
i swear to god
i'm gonna give you like an eight paragraph epic one day
and be like zoran read this
you mark my words
he's gonna fucking complain listeners
he's gonna complain
every day ends with a tums festival
because i i read faster than i think
sometimes
i get self-conscious
okay wait wait are you uno reversing
i'm too smart for your quotes
there's no no
that's actually a legitimate issue i've had as a kid
i had to go to speech therapy
and then go to special ed stuff
because i kept doing that and flumbling my words
it's affected me all my life
now i feel bad
yeah fuck you
no it's fine
but can you read the quote
it's all over dude
it's all over
we love each other here
narrative declaration
fuck you
i'm beating your ass
all right
i'm gonna throw you off
your fucking sweet
you're like
i'm a big dicky
i'm fucking throwing you off
i'll make sure that
that naked guy is back again
you know
in your other fucking way
all right
blasphemy
is a victimless crime
attributed to
redacted
by order of the emperor's holy inquisition
two days of traveling
it's about a day of travel through the wasteland
as you make your way
you eventually come to the great canyons
which if guinea points out marks
the opening
of the pilgrim's pass
crucified corpses
line
the way
adhered on
rocks
and
somehow
slivers of wood
that must have been imported
or brought to this world
skeletal remains
impaled up
looking ominously down
some bedecked in
gold finery
others
nothing more than skeletons
skeletons
all of them
with the same
sinister leer
as you come down
the far off
distant sun
gives a
almost
teal light
to the entire
affair
a filter
over everything
even in this
which is the
height of day
which is
well
only
an astonishing
zero degrees
celsius
which is
32 fahrenheit
for the rest
oh it's just
a little chilly
that's the
daytime weather
who knew
a desert
could be so cold
it gets worse
when you enter
the pass
because the
wind
comes through
vicious
and cold
it comes
like a
like a
torrent
smashing into
you
even
those
of you
in
legion
astardi's
power
armor
have
momentary
hesitation
as it
does
forcefully
impact
against
you
Evgeny
give me
a toughness
test
at minus
oh no
you know
what
i was gonna
make a whole
thing
yeah
thirst
i like
the way
this
sucks
can i
do it
plus
zero
instead
but i
don't
i don't
care
i want
him
to
suffer
stop
taking
alpha
abuses
oh
my god
you can
never be
him
seven
degrees
of
failure
at
you gain
your first
level of
fatigue
delightful
fatigue
is something
that will
impact you
you can
suffer
a number
of them
equal to
your
toughness
bonus
you suffer
a minus
10 penalty
on all
of your
tests
oh
from now
until you
remove it
that's
great
yep
the rest
of you
march
along
yeah
we're
marines
we're
space
marines
space
marines
you do
not look
so good
oh
never
never
better
better
sir
sir
it's
i like
the way
it sucks
out here
true
guardsman
i suppose
but do not
slow down
i do not
want to be
out here
any longer
than we
have to
speak for
yourself
look at
all of
this
wonderful
nature
why
isn't
it
beautiful
there is
nothing
out here
nothing
to hunt
human
or
otherwise
but
they're
skulls
you like
those
don't
you
i like
to take
them
i don't
like when
they're
already
there
somebody
did
the fun
part
yes
but
just
think
each
one
of
those
skulls
once
housed
a lifetime
of
experiences
that have
all
gone
away
isn't
there
something
sad
tragic
even
violent
about
that
no
i do
not
get
it
i figured
you
wouldn't
your
stupidity
can always
keep me
warm
let's
keep
moving
as we're
as we're
walking along
i would like
to assist
beginning
as i
see him
just kind
of like
oh he
sees me
slowing
down
and stuff
i would
like to
use
doom
bolt
to try
and give
you
any
warp
fire
oh
it's
gonna
be a
serious
campaign
let's
fucking
kill
this
guy
let's
kill
this
boo
boo
bear
in fact
my plan
is definitely
the opposite
um
as
as
lifelos
begins
to walk
up to
him
and goes
like
we
cannot
have
you
weaker
form
perish
in
the
sand
come
here
and you'll
grab the
back of
his armor
and lift
him and
actually kind
of like
place them
on his
shoulder
uh
it was to
ride on
but as
he's doing
so i
want to
cast
send
thoughts
okay
are you
sending
to him
yes
so
polki
do you
accept
or no
yeah
okay
let me
cast and
see if
you blow
up
i always
love that
i'm gonna
do a
fettered
so
we're
not gonna
have
a problem
for that
uh
no
just barely
i got it
with an 81
so
ah thank
goodness
all right
now
because
oh thank god
for the eye
so
i forget to
basically send
a link i can
always say a
couple sentences
to him
uh so
please forgive
me if i
mess up
here
um
he says
like
i'm trying
to i'm trying
to like
try to
condense
it
so i do
apologize
and goes
uh as in
a more
friendlier
voice instead
of the
raspberry
that
lifos has
been doing
uh hulking
within your
mind if i can
take some
issue for you
to kind of
play off on
within your
mind you
begin to
hear a
much more
softer
voice a
voice that's
a lot more
comforting as
if like like
a dad you
would look up
to as a
description for
that uh
who says
like i
apologize for
any rudeness
but be
careful where
you are
comma
so it's two
sentences
oh you're
comma abusing
okay
comma abusing
yeah i'm
medic
comma
it's like
beware of
the others
you get
back
from it
you can't
send it
back
oh you
can't
okay
there is
one where
we can talk
back and
forth but
this is i
only send
this to
you but
you do
not understand
what
that what
it comes
from uh
but from
the context
you probably
have an
inkling
this thought
is in a
read-only
mode
at that
punctuation
and the
punctuation
is if to
reinforce the
dialogue as
you begin to
try to say
something to
him like
thank you
sir he
kind of
like jostled
it's like
like try
to sit
up straight
weakling
keep your
eyes out
for any
dangers that
may ambush
us along
the way
right i
will do
my best
sir thank
you for
the lift
he says
no word
and it
continues
the
if getting
his mood
is a
little
soured
by what
which
which
psychopath
that's
ruined
your life
has
soured
your
mood
oh you
know
i mean
we only
killed
your
friends
saw you
saw you
at your
worst
and you
know
have
basically
inducted
you
yeah
nothing
too
egregious
by any
mean
i get
it
you've
getting
his
rages
against
smog
the dragon
smog
did do
a number
on a lot
of people
so
i get
it
true
it's true
well now
you ruined
the however
many episode
build up
that was
gonna be
the big
reveal
box
so
yes
pesanti
have
i told
you
my
name
let's
find
out
fuck
you're
right
hold on
hold on
hold on
hold on
roll it
for day
one
yeah
you found
my name
what the
fuck
every time
you manage
to make
this
check
it's only
gonna come
up when
it most
makes me
angry
most
matters
backward
and backward
side to
side
i was
hoping to
ask
do you
have any
particular
grudges
funny you
mention that
uh
i would say
pretty squarely
on the top
of the list
of inquisitor
who betrayed
me
oh
an inquisitor
you say
yes
you didn't
pick up
by the
whole
whole
color of
the outfit
kind of
worked for
them
before
you
popped
most
of the
heads
and what
was the
name of
this
charming
inquisitor
i'll tell
you when
you're older
it's a
it's a
it's a
long story
quite a lot
of pretext
you know
i will lean
in very
close and
whisper to
him
i respect
a secret
kept
but be
aware
you may
not live
long
enough
to keep
it
for the
keeper
you desire
do you
understand
my meaning
or was
that all
gobbledygook
life
says can
you get
away from
me
life
house
no
life
was
because
like
stray
away
from
him
i follow
annoyingly
but he
becomes a
very small
version of
himself and
skips
away
bethael is
going to lean
over to
cephas
i think i am
going to
scout ahead
i do not
when the two
of them are
talking i get
a headache
by all means
brother i must
stay here and
monitor them
as is the right
of any champion
go forth
and bethael is
gonna scuttle
ahead and
using his
experience in
the great
outdoors his
experience as a
forsaken and
the survivalist
of a sort
he's gonna
just start
looking around
for landmarks
or anything
really that we
need to be
aware of
or possibly
somewhere to
set up camp
because our
poor friend is
freezing to
death
are you looking
like survival
check kind of
thing or
yeah
yeah give me
a little bit
plus plus
ten survival
check
plus ten
i'll give you
one degree
of failure
okay
um you're
not able to
find anything
as you carry
on up ahead
instead um
though you're
not able to
find anything
of note you
do start
hearing up
ahead is
especially as
you're
the conversations
of your
companions are
echoing through
the canyon
you do hear
a
hello
hello
are you
other pilgrims
out there
Beth Isle's
gonna squint
ahead what do
i say
the path
continues on
but you
notice off
to the side
there's
what appears
to be a
cavern
um built
into uh
the canyon
wall here
you've noticed
a couple of
these sort
of safe
areas for
resting along
the path
um generally
speaking they're
fairly small
they can barely
accommodate one
astartes
but you you hear
this coming from
one of them
further further
along
gonna uh
kind of
meander
up to it
and just
kind of
who's in
there
hello
and as
you as
you approach
the the
entrance
you you do
see a figure
that comes
out
sick
it's an
old man
um in
ragged
clothing
um except
uh you can
tell as soon
as he comes
into the
sort of
teal light
here that
his eyes
are milky
white
these he's
a blind
man
uh
again sort
of tattered
tattered rags
um he's looking
like almost
like awkwardly
at your
chest
um
hello
you can see
there's a
small pack
that has been
laid on the
ground in
this in
this sort
of hovel
side passage
you are
a pilgrim
yes
i've come
to walk
the path
in my
last days
sure
how
so far
to the
city
oh
i do
not
know
my
my daughter
she was
with me
she left
i don't
know how
long ago
now
a few
days
perhaps
to scout
ahead
she has
not
returned
we have
seen
nothing
that is
living
your
daughter
is
probably
dead
no
oh
no
no
no
no
no
the
light
will
protect
her
i do
not
think
the
light
is
protecting
anybody
here
old
man
as
as you
say
that
the
rest
of
your
companions
begin
to
sort
of
approach
seeing
you
standing
in front
of this
doorway
yeah
yeah
all of my
fellowship
i've been
thinking as soon as you were like
as soon as you asked him like
how far away until the city and he goes i don't know said the blind man to the
space marine
yeah
i didn't want to be that much of an asshole i had to save that for you zorrin
apparently
absolutely
that's our love language being a motherfucker dude
yeah
cephas
kind of calls out to beth ale
beth ale
what have you found
the first living thing on this road
is he going to die
probably
well then let's leave him to it
and blind
his
daughter
has apparently
gone on her head
has anybody seen a daughter
i am going
did we see a daughter
nope
you've seen no one else on this path so far
go ahead
if i may thurston
mm-hmm
i'm gonna try something
okay
okay
okay
byzanti is going to
look especially
gleeful
and he is going to
in the sweetest voice
he can muster
father
i thought i would never find you
and
i'm going to make a deceive role
to convince the blind old man
that i am his daughter
oh
make that
as a
challenging
test
you got it
let's see if your gear is up to snuff
let's see if your voice mod is working great
sorry
i was going to
interject of helping him
i will happily take help
i
i do apologize
because
for time of doing it and everything else
uh
for one
i'm double checking to see if i took mimicry
at all
or i took something different
because i remember making
character
it's like
oh what do you get
like mimicry or this
um
regardless i would like to kind of
influence the man
you know
well it's the same thing i've been doing always
to help emphasize that voice
uh
to really help him believe it
uh
but i know
i know he already kind of did the role or so
but that's
that's up to you therse
if it's already too late
that's fine
okay um
well give me a sec here
hmm
i just need to
you are free to tell me to go fuck myself
be late
it's okay
he's checking something
let him check it
yeah i want to check
one of the
one of the rules that i don't know off
hand
is assisting rules
in this rpg
this was just around the era
where like assisting and stuff
was
coming into vogue
and i'm sure there's like
a rule for how to assist
but
i don't see one
off
hand
um
there might be one
oh here we go
uh
so you can
assist
every other character
can give
can reduce the difficulty
by one
if they have something
to assist
okay
so they could
you could reduce it
by 10
which would still
not be enough
to help in this case
all right
sorry
i'm comfortable
no you're good
i'm comfortable
just calling that a failure
yeah
so with even with the
assistance
so the way that
assistance works
um
just seeing it
it's on page
uh 38
um
basically
each character
that gives assistance
generally has to have
training and the skill
but
you know
smart things
can
can
um
but
you essentially
reduce
um
the difficulty
by one
so
in this case
a lack and a last
not enough
the old man
pauses
oh
oh
i sort of
oh
you
miscreant
why would you do
such a thing
have you no shame
an inquisitor
has no shame
gonna change tactics
intimidate
work
new hat on
hi i'm the mailman
yeah
i normally
wouldn't get this far
but this guy's blind
he's again he's blind
you can get away with a lot
here you can
you can
mislead the elderly
all you want
absolutely
you can
is this still challenging
oh
oh god
yes
like
you've just kind of been
like an asshole
for no reason
and then like
nah actually
i'm like
i guess
i'm the secret service
i guess
yeah yeah yeah
yeah
now we can try
now we've learned rules
now you can try to assist me
yes
what do i need to rule
so you would need to have
intimidate
zorn
okay i don't have it trained
i do get like a 52
so you would need to have training
in the skill to assist
and that's how assistance works
in this game
okay
so i can't cast a spell
and okay
it doesn't
you can cast a spell
if you want
but um
yeah
if you do
move on
he can
he can go on
yeah
yeah
okay
all right
give me
give me your
other check here
speaker
you got it
that is gonna be a 56
for two degrees
of success
inquisitor
i am inquisitor
august
of the order
hereticus
what's that
god you're uneducated
are you truly one of the emperor's faithful
of course
i believe in him in the light
inquisitor
are you with
are you
are you with
the patrols
these are my retinue
they are sworn
to me
now
tell me
if you are truly faithful
of the emperor
prove it to me now
i'm a blind man
come here to die
even he with nothing
still has his faith
show me your faith
like he kind of like
like very slowly
goes to his knees
and like
caresses his hands
it's like
he who sits upon
the glorious throne
on the throne world
of humanity
here my
my sufferance
my
my please
my
and he just
kind of goes
into a prayer routine
i'm going to
take a second
and i'm going to go
to lythos
or lythos
i'm going to try
a little deception
i would so very much
love it if you could
aid me
in creating the illusion
lythos will nod
i'm going to turn back
by
by the god emperor
you recite
that prayer
so splendidly
you
you
you
must be the
reincarnation
of saint agartha
i'm going to
attempt deceive
okay
or do i miss again
i'll even give you
a plus 10 on this
because
because
because you
you've sufficiently
humbled him prior
yeah
honestly i can't
make a
illusion for him
because he won't
see it
uh i guess i'll
thought send again
uh because i
should have
uh
what do i have
like what do i
have here
it's like
awareness thing
to
i have
scrutiny
unfortunately
i don't have
to see
uh yeah i have
deceive on train
i got dodged
though
yeah and this
is a game where
it's like
it is far less
like it's it's
less than like
the d20 system
where it's like
oh everybody
just helps out
and shit like
that it's far
less like you
have to be
trained in it
to do it in
this game
yeah we're just
trying to find
a way to
play together
uh would you
allow me to
do thought
sending and
uh do a
sign of science
roll that
could put to
enhance of
like like the
god emperor's
voice is like
you are one of
my chosen
i have risen
you and stuff
like that
yeah absolutely
okay i am
going to go
just fettered
so we don't
blow him up
uh 51 that
is a success
um i began
to speak her
i'll allow you
role play this
one uh two
sentences of the
god emperor's
voice uh to
emphasize it to
this man's head
of like you're
the one man
okay you are
the real god
he is going to
first of all try
to resist this
and i believe
let me just
need to double
check i think
he gets he gets
a plus 20 so
he's gonna try
to resist this
which he does
not so um
your your
thoughts go
through uh and
then i will give
you a plus 20
on your check
speaker to
account for all
of this why
thank you okay
so it's an
ordinary check
plus 20
let's rock
oh
that
alas
well you know
it's an ordinary
plus 10
it's supposed to
be plus 20
need putting
in fact he's
got a custom
plus 20 in
there so
it's actually
10 even 10
higher
yeah regardless
you yeah
well no the
target 72
yeah but like i
say i'm sorry
i'm bad math
yeah yeah i
failed i failed
i failed i'm
sorry
yeah the old
man is is now
like kind of lost
in prayer almost
not like
like like he
now that he
started this his
like his prayer
continues almost
as though as he
continues praying
it's fortifying
him like
dwells on terror
give me strength
for those who
would seek to
tempt me or
make me stray
from my path i
shall finish this
in your name
give me the
strength for which
to continue this
march and like
so he's just like
kind of in his
own little like
world i look a
little frustrated
uh bethael
cephas or either
of you doing
anything during
this uh cephas
is predominantly
just watching
uh considering
this is an old
blind man and
i don't know if
he could tell us
the way of where
we need to go
and i don't know
if he would have
anything of
particular note to
uh pilfer so
cephas would probably
just be of the
mind to let him
continue on his
path and go to
his appointed fate
whatever that'll
be whether
that's dying
in you know
a day from
dehydration or
dying in five
seconds from
bethael hitting
him with a
chain hand
bethael what
are you doing
bethael is
very visibly
starting to get
impatient uh
this man he
wouldn't even
make for good
blood spill it
would be no
challenge no
no proper
fight so he's
like kind of
starting to get
a bit twitchy as
he just turns
and says can
we go
oh i suppose
evgeny
evgeny will
approach the
old man in
the midst of
his prayers
he was
little on the
throne he
shall grant
me the
fortitude that
i need to
yeah and
he's just
kind of going
on his
thing
him on
terror will
take care of
you father
i'm sure
you will
see who
you're missing
again in
due time
but tell us
so that we
may find our
friends lost
along this
pilgrim's road
even one as
blind as you
must have
heard the
trammel of
troop organization
people along
the road
might you have
heard anything
in your time
here
give me a
charm
do you have
charm
evgeny
it's untrained
but
it's there
you can give
me a charm
at minus
ten
oh
yeah that's
going to be
almost impossible
well you know
telling me there's
a chance
oh
yes
there's your
chance
there's your
chance
that's a three
with two degrees
of successes
yeah
absolutely
okay
you you
start to
yeah you
you
the man
pauses
oh
oh
oh you
sound like
a good
soul
yes
cooks
um
there
there
there were
bandits
that's
that's why
my daughter
went ahead
it was talk
of bandits
up ahead
in the hills
waylaying
the pilgrims
on the last
legs of the
journey
bandits
anything more
than that
my daughter
said to
stay here
that she
would scout
ahead
that I
could not
go on
without
with with
her it
would be
too
dangerous
it is
quite
dangerous
out there
sir
but I
appreciate
your help
and if
any
will
take the
old
man's
hand
just
clasp
with his
other
I do
not know
if he
will hear
you
but I
do
and the
only thing
that will
hear you
and save
you
is us
do you
understand
what I'm
saying
what is it
you wish
of me
have faith
in something
that will
answer your
cries
not him
he didn't
answer mine
and now
I'm just
a ghost
and like
you can
tell like
like this
is like
affected
this man
like
this like
old man
is just
kind of
like
stunned
like
oh
what
what
should I
oh
Thurston
can I
interject
at this
point
because
Cephas
sees an
opportunity
as he's
been
thinking
I want
to ask
you a
question
first
though
are we
on a
timetable
I mean
like
your ship
should still
be in
orbit
it shouldn't
leave you
it's not
going to get
blasted out
of the
space
by you
know
the
tyranids
or whatever
no no
there was
there was
nothing
in orbit
that was
threatening
you
or anything
like that
we just
came down
on a whim
more or
less
you arrived
here with
a mission
in mind
to go
after your
target
and that
has since
been literally
blown out
of the
sky
Cephas
will
stomp
forward
because it's
all he can
really do
because he's
so fucking
heavy
comparatively
and he
will place
a
befouled
hand
on
Evgeny's
shoulder
guardsman
yes
he mentioned
banditry
yes
apparently
there's
some
bandits
further up
the road
yes
haranguing
pilgrims
on the
road
on the
way
perhaps
they might
be
of use
indeed
i think
bandits
may be
of exceptional
use to
us
bethael
what is
that
saying
that
we are
so fond
of
and
humor
me
for a
moment
if you
will
catch
on
what
is
it
blood
for
the
emperor
skulls
for
the
golden
throne
you
want
to
find
the
bandits
i don't
see why
we
shouldn't
let us
give
there's
a
there's
a
like
a
grinding
of
gears
like
as
he
is
attempting
to
parse
this
in
a
way
that
is
not
his
usual
like
uh
you
know
let
us
give
this
perverse
and
befouled
hope
is
let
us
give
hope
to
this
older
man
here
let
us
see
what
we
can
do
for
his
people
in
the
name
of
the
gods
if
nothing
else
these
bandits
will be
better
prey
than
a
blind
old
man
retributive
justice
is something
that your
lord would
approve
of
would
he
not
yes
certainly
he
would
then
let
us
get
justice
what
say
you
lifos
cough
cough
lifos
is
coughing
okay
pardon
me
i'll
go to
pardon
me
what
say
you
byzanti
i
say
and
i will
take a
look
at
yifgeni
that
yifgeni
has
stirred
something
in my
heart
just
then
something
that i
found
so
utterly
refreshing
so
yes
yes
let
us
be
the
heroes
of
this
pilgrim's
trail
let
us
bring
justice
and
hope
to
this
blind
old
man
let
us
find
his
lost
daughter
i
commend
myself
utterly
to
yifgeni's
vision
in this
regard
and
i know
that
zoran is
temporarily
afk
i'm just
gonna lead
this in
and i
guess
easy can
edit it
in when
he gets
back and
i'll just
repeat it
let us
go visit
some
change
upon
those
who
deserve
it
brother
very
well
i do
believe
that
through a
long
walk
we
could
get
some
action
today
i believe
has been
dreary
through
this
long
journey
indeed
and i
believe
mutt
is excited
about that
prospect
aren't you
boy
he looks
over to
the beth
i
i
i
would be
angrier
if i
didn't think
there were
better things
out there
to kill
sorcerer
spits
at your
feet
sorry
my
vtuber
humor
was
about
to
activate
but
no
no
all right
so
bad
exactly
what you
were
gonna
do
yeah
it's
horrible
it's
bad
humor
uh
oh
no
the
life
host
will
uh
just
laugh
basically
at the
coordinate
and
begin
to
follow
basically
wherever
the
direction
was
established
to
where
the
band
is
okay
you
carry
on
another
day
traveling
through
the
winding
canyons
the
wind
continuing
to
pound
itself
if
you've
getting
you've
getting
my
friend
give me
another
toughness
test
at
minus
sure
your
toughness
at
minus
and
we go
from
critical
success
to
very
big
fail
at
degrees
of
failure
you
continue
to be
fatigued
so you'll
have one
fatigue
level
for
what's
coming
up
your
companions
or
not
because
I
also
just
have
to
kick
the
human
while
he's
down
naturally
they've
had it
too
long
I also
assume
by
Zanti
as you
are
sort
of
walking
you
are
kind
of
semi
regularly
using
your
aspects
yes
you can
keep
that
on
for
sure
that
is
in
my
brain
for
a
reason
I
catch
you
you
begin
making
your
way
to
the
southwest
the path
has been
snaking
in various
directions
but now
it is
going to
the
southwest
into
a large
spider web
of canyons
one of the
things that
is becoming
incredibly
infuriating
about this
path
is that
it branches
off at
regular
points
sometimes
you'll
find
yourself
going
down
one
or
two
paths
and
then
finding
that
you
know
the
left
path
ends
up
being
a
dead
end
or
ending
in
what
is
like
a
crevice
where
multiple
skeletons
have been
entombed
in the
walls
there's
there's
fine
jewelry
no
usable
equipment
it looks
like
anything
of any
actual
use
has been
pilfered
but
anything
that
is
just
ostentatious
has been
left
behind
you
continue
on
for
several
like I say
hours
another
full
day
in
fact
from
the
cave
with
the
old
man
when
you
finally
reach
a
section
and
it
falls
to
Byzanti
you
recognize
that
your
auspex
is
going
off
it's
enough
for
you
to
recognize
with
your
auspex
going
off
that
and
you
at
this
point
have
recovered
some
of
your
health
let
us
let's
see
how
many
or
how
much
yeah
let's
let's
see
I
always
this
is
one
of
those
things
where
I'm
like
ah
yes
recovering
health
that
is
in
a
weird
place
let
me
find
it
here
we
go
you
one
damage
per
day
you've
been
coming
through
here
this
is
about
your
third
day
so
you'll
have
regained
three
wounds
so
you're
Byzanti
I'm
just
putting
that
in
and
then
Cephas
yeah
your
your
wounds
are
all
healed
so
I
think
that's
it
for
pretty
much
everyone
if
Evgeny
you're
going to
regain
that
lost
wound
as
well
and
that
should
bring
us
all
back
to
where
we
are
as
you
were
traveling
to
the
southwest
Byzanti
your
your
auspex
begins
to
ping
it's
it's
it's
really
really
scattered
like
this
this
terrain
is
causing
a lot
of
problems
you
can't
pinpoint
but
you're
seeing
what
is
multiple
blips
of
life
signs
in
the
area
but
you
are
unable
to
tell
specifically
where
the
life
signs
are
you
know
that
they're
going
to
be
up
ahead
but
you're
you're
not
able
to
pinpoint
their
exact
location
test
you know
I will
allow
this
let me
bring us
over
to
this
scene
bring you
over
to here
you should
see a
canyon
map
I do
indeed
see a
canyon
map
cool
excellent
all right
you can
give me
an awareness
test at
minus
you got
it
that's
an
for
two
degrees
of
success
that
is
going
to
give
you
enough
to
know
that
there
are
three
three
general
or two
general
groups
there is
one
group
that is
down
this
way
probably
in the
area of
six to
eight
life
signs
and then
there is
four to
six
life
signs
to the
west
of this
direction
okay
four to
six
eight
three to
eight
did you
say
four to
eight
to the
south
and
four to
six
to the
west
now
you
you
come
upon
this
and
you
can
tell
that
they're
they're
they're
set up
in like
a waiting
position
I'm
going to
give you
some time
to confer
at this
point
but
at
that
point
once
you
start
acting
we'll
go
into
combat
time
here
okay
so
first
things
first
difficulty
minus
willpower
test
I have
many
secrets
oh my
god
so
I'm
going to
assume
like
with
your
knowledge
of this
Byzantie
are you
going to
let
someone
else
like
step
up
first
kind
of
a
thing
like
is
your
plan
to
sort
of
like
oh
I
see
life
signs
and
then kind
of
like
fall
back
a bit
or
oh
absolutely
not
um
okay
there are
approximately
a maximum
of what
was it
six people
this way
that's
and then
eight to
the south
that's
Lanesha's
holy number
I am
simply going
to begin
making my
way as
quickly as
I can
this direction
cool
cool
okay
um
all right
I'll
let other
people
move
around
Byzantie
in the
direction
they
wish
to
go
uh
Cephas
was going
to continue
going
just
straight
forward
and seeing
Byzantie
arc off
in that
direction
he will
not change
his mind
on the
matter
but he
will
kind
of
look
at
by
he
will
look
at
him
somewhat
quizzically
from
beneath
his
sack
hood
uh
Slenish
works
in
mysterious
ways
and
he
will
simply
continue
forward
anyone
going
with
him
where
are
you
going
I
just
like
I
just
like
in
my
screen
Evgeny
went
to
like
hide
behind
rocks
I
don't
want
to
be
seen
no
he
was
just
he
was
sidestepping
he's
building
momentum
to
move
okay
okay
what
does
your
Bethael
is
going
to
kind
of
like
stomp
after
him
and
start
moving
in
that
direction
no
hold
on
I
need
to
make
another
check
oh
my
god
it's
a secret
are
you
Bethael
are you
going
to
lead
the
way
in
which
direction
are
you
leading
the
way
so
I'm
gonna
have
the
coronate
pull
the
so
Byzantine
shouted
no
when he
went
in that
direction
uh-huh
Bethael
just
goes
fine
stay
behind
then
is
going
to
trudge
off
in this
direction
cool
oh
Thurston
can you
uh
can you
move me
forward
as well
since I'm
going
that
direction
yeah
I assume
you're
gonna be
kind
of
like
pulling
up
here
I'm
staying
with
you
guinea
um
uh
as I
that
maybe
as I
try to
talk to
him
sorry
I just
try to
do
this
quickly
uh
I
succeed
on my
thing
exactly
with
an
and
you
will
hear
uh
in
his
mind
saying
stay
with
lyphos
he
will
protect
you
all
right
accept
the
collect
call
you
guinea
yeah
are
you
accepting
the
collect
call
you
guinea
yeah
you
can
resist
it
yeah
you
know
you
can
just
talk
to
me
right
he
does
not
acknowledge
you
at
all
as soon
as you
speak
out
loud
all right
uh
thurston
can I
attempt
to get
up
this
actually
how tall
are these
rocks
next to
you
if you
any
um
well
we're
we're
going into
combat
time
now
so
i
got
a
six
remember
you get
plus
two
the special
plus
two
hulky
as we
discussed
because
you're
human
i got
a seven
total
so
i
only hulky
gets the
special
plus
two
hulky
is a
human
and humans
get higher
initiative
because it's
how they
survive
in this
game
why are
you
it's
true
because i
roll terrible
on initiative
always
i
remember right
click on the
combat thing
and click
dice next
to
gertrude
yeah
yeah
you've
gedi and
byzante
please
yep
yeah
sorry about
that
sorry
the blood
for the
initiative
excellent
love it
for
podcast
people
you've
getting
used at
byzante
is 8
i'm gonna
get byzante
more
dextrous
uh
erindel
steff
got a
and
betheo
got a
and
just for
podcast
people
like
that's
the
order
how
we
are
yeah
if
genny
you get
to go
first
you see
bethiel
turn
and i
assume
bethiel
there's
like a
slight
pause
like a
clearly
like that
pose of
you've
noticed
something
yeah
and what
you see
by the
way i
should
clarify
um
is
down
that
path
um
are
several
individuals
and
let me
pull up
the art
here
um
these are
very
clearly
desert
scavengers
um
they are
decked in
like
flack
flack armor
with face
plates and
robes that
are covering
them head
to toe
they have
sort of
glowing
eyes
um
they stare
out and
what you
see
um
are
from your
perspective
you see
four of
them
uh
three of
them
one of
them like
almost within
a meter
of you as
you turn
the rock
corner
um
they are
each
wielding
um
stub
automatic
guns
or sorry
stub
automatic
pistols
um
and hold
swords
um
there's
one for
their back
that appears
to have
some kind
of weapon
with a
like
nozzle at
the end
of it
um
that is
connected
with a
hose
that's
connected
to a
tank
interesting
yeah
yeah
um
so
evgeny
um
you've seen
beth i'll
sort of advance
see all
see all
of this
you haven't
quite seen
anything
yourself
but you
get to
go first
what would
you like
to do
uh
i would
like
well
can i
see how
tall
this cliff
face is
next to
me
or is
it just
right
these
are
these
are
actually
like
exceptionally
tall
they're
like
on average
like 10
meters up
so these
are like
very sheer
stark
canyon
walls
gotcha
all right
yeah
let's
get on
top of
it
well
with that
being said
then i'm
gonna attempt
to enter
stealth
i don't
need to
be seen
right now
and i'm
gonna roll
for that
one degree
of success
hit it
right on
the dot
yeah
okay
great
um
then i'm
going to
use what i
have remaining
which
speeds that
half movement
gonna move
up
and shadow
beth i
l
okay
i'm
gonna move
right there
instead
okay
and yeah
you will then
see the
the same
all right
uh one
of them
lets out
a yelp
and moves
up
actually
one second
let's see
um
goes up
to about
here
sees you
beth i l
uh and
raises their
small uh
stub automatic
and tries to
fire at you
um
standard attack
they are in
short range
they are not
aiming because
they moved
don't know
why it's
automatically
doing the
melee thing
again but i
will just
do that
uh there's
a bang
um as
the uh
as the
the stub
shot goes
wild
uh you
hear more
running as
another one
comes bolting
out
hear more
running as
another one
comes bolting
out
oh
okay
uh lifos
you're up
lifos will
begin to
walk next
to
beth i l
as i
go
my half
half my
speed
he begins
to walk
kind of
behind him
uh go
about four
meters
towards it
as he
kind of
goes across
uh the
pretty much
the side
of the
canyon wall
he sees
the grouping
of desert
scavengers
as he
extends a
handout and
begins to
seven psychic
power he
will then
cast forth
force storm
and hopefully i do
this correct
at which he's
going to
unleash it
full throttle
he is going
to push
so that's
going to be
uh psychic
rating plus
1d5
and of course
i will
phenomena no
matter what
i do
uh so just
to clarify
for force
storm so
i can get
it to
uh uh
discouraging
cycle will
extend it out
into a great
flurry of bolts
of invisible
force
stick into a
storm of
fire from
an automatic
weapon
and we
shall
cast upon
thee
let's see
if i can
do it
these guys
are not
troops
correct
they are
not
troops
i'm counting
them all
as individuals
for this
combat
deal
well
yeah it's
an 87
that is a
failure
so i get
the roll
as he goes
like
it doesn't
have
the
the light
of the
emperor
um
one sec
i want
to make
sure
the
table
i think
i fixed
it
but
i will
check
yes
okay
oh god
oh no
okay
it is
for frost
the temperature
plummets for
an instant
and a thin
coating of
frost covers
everything within
3d 10
meters
i shall go ahead
and roll that
and that is
going to be
yes
oh
one sec
you were pushing
you said
right
yes
so you
add plus
10 to
the table
result
oh okay
my bad
let me uh
yeah
let's clarify
i did
roll
okay
uh let me
go grab the
table my
bad
it's worse
it's worse
my bad
my bad
i'm trying
to find
phenomena
there we
go
uh so
uh
i want
a
hunting
breeze
winds
whip up
around
the
cycle
for a
few
moments
blowing
light
objects
around
and
guttering
fires
within
3d
meters
uh
yeah
yeah
so the
wind like
howls
through this
canyon
like
lifeless
you try
to connect
to the
immaterium
but there
is something
something
something
strange
that blocks
your power
as you're
trying to
harness
your psychic
powers
instead
it's
almost as
though
this
this
pilgrimage
path
is
like
responding
to your
attempt
by
howling
at
you
um
the rest
of you
are unaffected
i mean
it's just
except
evgeny
who gets
much
colder
um
and in
fact
evgeny
give me
another
toughness
test
at
plus
oh
based
chilly
chilly
the active
effects
window out
here
it's just
kind of
yeah i
know i
i think
we i
think we
should
we should
look into
that one
that'll
be a
note
for next
time
that
active
effects
things
help
makes
it
hard
to
click
at
plus
yes
you should
be able to
just click
the x
thing
on that
yeah but
if i click
on like other
icons it then
brings it up
automatically every
time so i have
to do it
every time
target a 50
succeed with
46 two
degrees
yeah you're
good you're
good so
you're you're
kind of a bit
fortified to
that which is
good you are
not like
taking any
more fatigue
um so
that's
good
uh all
right all
right all
right uh
lifos was
that you
yes i've
entered my
turn already
yeah there
we go over
to byzante
all righty
then byzante
is going
to let's
see how far
can i move
if i so
a full move
is eight
right
yeah
yeah it
all depends
for you
to here
okay as
soon as you
get there
that you
notice a
guy to
the southeast
in a
crevice
he was on
overwatch so
he will fire
at you with
a pistol
it's okay
he's only
gonna hit on
sixes
he's gonna
do it
he's gonna
do it
don't don't
make fun of
him he's gonna
do it he's
there yeah
he's a winner
a winner is
him it's
it's the
flamer guy
that's extra
dangerous in
overwatch
oop he
misses
the shot
goes wild
with four
degrees of
failure in
a 75
hits the
wall beside
you as
byzante
you you
you turn
the corner
i'm going
to turn
the corner
and i'm
not even
going to
greet him
i'm just
grinning
ear to
ear
uh i'm
going to
go ahead
and go
on a
semi-auto
shot
uh it
says i'm
firing at
short range
i will not
have the
ability to
aim because
i've
moved
yep
hello
goodbye
uh that
will fail
with one
degree of
failure
could i
spend an
infamy to
get
i'm not
you have
to declare
it before
the roll
for that
okay great
even if i
for the plus
i wouldn't
have that's
me done
so you
like turn
the corner
and you
strum it
hits the
wall behind
the guy
who looks
over kind
of in
shock
um yeah
yeah all
right all
right yeah
i'd probably
destroy some
some of the
wall rocks
falling everywhere
yeah uh
cephas you're
up uh i'm
gonna have to
move because i
don't have
line of sight on
anything of
particular note
from my
position so i'm
actually oh
shit how
close can i
move to uh
lifos and
bethiel here
because it's
not a lot of
space i can
only move
three meters
as half
action
yeah you'd
have to kind
of like either
come up behind
like you could
kind of come up
behind them
here this is
fairly open in
terms of you
know sharing
space and
whatnot if you
want to get
close yeah you
absolutely can
okay in that
case i'm going
to move
get very close
create a very
stinky crevice
i don't have a
whole lot i can
use on this and
trying to grenade
them would be kind
of a bad idea
no i think you
can i think you
can get some
good dolly
i died down
there i just
hit him that's
about it yeah
yeah close range
like this the
biggest problem is
if it deviates
back on you
that'll never
happen
zorn
norgo will
i do have a
bolt gun
yeah
and i can
technically dual
wield because i
have the ability
to have a weapon
in my other hand
unbraced
yeah so is
your plan to
sort of like
walk up and
draw the
bolt gun
yeah i'm
gonna i'm
gonna draw the
bolt gun and
not use my
power so i'm
gonna have my
grenade launcher
and my bolt
gun both
available because
i don't need
two hands for
both for either
i should say
i have quick
draw so that's
not too much
of an issue
i'm going to
target that guy
and i'm going
to fire bolt gun
at him
targeting
each bolt gun
uh this is
a standard
attack no
modifier it's
in short
range i
can't aim
so i fire
my gun
yep
with a
29 that's five
degrees of
success
hell yeah
that'll hit him
in the left
leg roll
damage
terrific
we'll go
my damage
sizable
that is 14
damage to the
target with a
pen of four
okay so
let me do the
math here uh
so the left
leg um this
guy has tattered
armor and
nothing representing
the left leg so
you're just gonna
tear through the
left leg i
should have fixed
the damage thing
like it implies
tearing and all
that now
okay okay
okay uh well
we can apply the
damage and see
if it works
okay um
one sec so
eight
damage
yes that's
correct so
it'll go through
eight there
minus one
yep
um
one sec
uh let me
make sure the
math here is
good so
your total
was
the pen
will take it
down
so zero
armor
so
goes straight
through
he'll take
six critical
damage
um
i'm not sure
why it's
i think some
of the math
is is not
correct
there but
uh
it should be
six critical
damage on this
because
eight wounds
go through
yeah it's not
counting the
oh wait no i
see why
okay uh
yeah so
it's gonna
do
one extra
so critical
damage here
it is going
to fracture
this guy's
leg
um
so taking
a look at
this as you
blast him
uh
you basically
it's gonna
be plus one
so you're
actually gonna
send him
spinning through
the air
can you
roll me
a d5
okay
just a d5
no additions
yep
no no additions
uh the d5
will get me
five
you sent him
like uh
you sent him
flying back
into the wall
and that's
where he dies
just a single
bolt gun
round
you could just
imagine like
his left hand
holding the
grenade launcher
like down at
his side
and then he
just raises up
a full ass
bolter with
the other arm
and fires a
single shot at
him
and it hits him
in the thigh
but the force
just sends him
crashing back
into the stone
wall
one down
okay
that's it for
you sevis
that's all i
got
all right
well
oh you skipped
the turn on
accident because
i was clicking
the end turn
button
oh no
no no no
no no
uh i did
actually yeah
you're right
apparently i did
okay yeah
i was back to
this guy
well this guy's
just going to
uh
charge into
melee with
byzanti
you fool
we'll see how
well this goes
for him
oh it's gonna
go great
oh wait hold
on he's charging
into melee with
me
yeah
then he's going
to need to make
me a minus
ten
willpower test
because any
foolish warrior
or rather any
warrior foolish
enough to
look into
the beguiling
gem of
byzanti
misfit
loses their
action
oh
loses his
action
foolish
back he
goes
no he's
stuck there
as he is
assailed
with uh
visions of
depravity
and excess
assaulted with
visions
from every
debased
vice
imaginable
if he fails
he cannot make
any actions
but can make
reactions as
normal
and once
passed the
character has
overcome the
gem and will
not suffer its
effects again
that melee
encounter
he gets the
vision of being
a tier three to
a vtuber
uh i get
i get you
so he does
actually charge
in still
yeah he charges
in but he
stops
gotcha
gets to
me
cool
all right
awesome
uh that's
gonna be that
guy
that's gonna
bring us to
this guy
this is where
it's gonna
be funny
funny
kind of funny
it's gonna go
out to here
uh
then he's
one of these
pure cones
ah
as a wash
of fire
the horrible
comes out
from this
guy's
flamer
weapon
um
yeah
so
let's
let's learn
about
flamers
shall we
and not
the cool
zeach
demon
but the
weapon
um
flamers
they have
a range
of 20
meters
so it's
just gonna
like wash
all the way
up through
here
uh
hitting
all of
you
um
how they
work
so this
is a
spray
weapon
um
spray
weapons
are kind
of uh
hilarious
in that
they don't
he doesn't
test ballistic
skill when he
fires this
weapon
so there's
no ballistic
skill test
instead
every creature
in range
must make
an agility
test
oh boy
okay
yeah watch
this
next level
strat so
lifos
bethfiel
cephas
and evgeny
uh
okay
lifos
will succeed
with a
my target
was 46
uh
i will
succeed
with a
and a
target
of 50
i will
fail
uh
with a
and target
a 40
okay
so
um
if
getting
you managed
to hide
behind the
cover
where you
are
lifos
what is
your
your agility
modifier
is
plus
four
right
yes
okay
so
you
can
basically
you're gonna
jump out of
the way
of the
cone
by like
heading
forward
yeah
you just
get out
of the
way
of the
wash
of it
um
bethfiel
and cephas
however
do not
have that
luxury
um
both of
you
are going
to be
hit
so
how this
works
is
i will
roll
damage
to this
weapon
um
private
dice
oh
sorry
my
bad
uh
there we
come
i think
i think
no this
is
these
weapons
are super
weird
so
that's
why i
actually
want to
talk it
out with
you
for
this
no
no
you're
fine
i'm
just
apologizing
yes
my
no
no
no
no
no
no
no
um
flamer
um
flamer
weapons
so
in this
case
you are
both
going to
take
damage
this
will
hit
you
in
the
body
um
and
i think
the pen
here is
two
so
uh
so
it's
only
going
to
be
eight
because
i rolled
a four
so
you're
basically
not
going
to
really
take
any
damage
from
this
but
me
at
least
uh
beth
iel
won't
won't
either
because
it's
only
eight
so
your
armor
and
tough
bonus
however
if
you
are
hit
by
a
flame
attack
you
must
make
a
second
agility
test
or
be
caught
on
fire
two
of
them
all
right
oh
i
failed
this one
as well
target
what the
oh
don't
don't
click
the
button
just
use
the
just
just
make
an
agility
test
oh
just
make
an
agility
test
got
it
i'll
make
another
one
another
one
another
one
i
fail
you
guys
you
rolled
the
same
so
let's
learn about
being on
fire
on
fryer
okay
so
when you
are on
fire
you will
take
1d
damage
oh
ignoring
your
armor
oh
yucky
armor
but what
about
your
toughness
so
let me
check
here
i believe
so i
think this
is one
of those
like weird
or random
things
it does
not
ignore
your
toughness
bonus
so you
will
still
take
this
now
it's
not
necessarily
the worst
part of
being on
fire
in this
game
you will
take
one
level
of
fatigue
each
round
you are
on
fire
until
the
fire
is
extinguished
yeah
we don't
like that
at the
start
of your
turn
you have
to make
a
challenging
so plus
zero
willpower
test
in order
to act
normally
otherwise
you only
run around
and scream
oh
that sounds
good
yeah
yeah
yeah
yeah
yeah
you can
like
obviously
do things
to remove
the fire
or whatnot
but essentially
it's
it's
fire is
is
real
bullshit
and bad
and I
want you
to be
introduced
to it
very early
so you
know
not to
fuck
around
with it
and that's
gonna be
the flamor
scub
and then
that's
gonna bring
us
to
Beth
I.
all right
so
sorry
sorry
one sec
and because
you are
on fire
I will
roll this
now
Beth
I.
well
because
you are
on fire
I'm gonna
roll the
damage
so it's
nothing
you will
take no
damage
but you
are still
on fire
so
at this
point
give me
a willpower
test
okay
you said
it was
challenging
yep
this is
really funny
to me
because
the only
thing
I have
to worry
about
from the
fire
is the
effect
even
though
I am
taking
I'm never
going to
take
damage
from that
I will
give you
five degrees
of success
I'm pissed
off
correct
but
correct
but
you still
also
take the
one point
of fatigue
damage
every round
and that's
where it can
get you
yeah
that's what I
mean
is like
I'm being
fatigued
by fire
that doesn't
hurt me
yes
absolutely
this is the
funny
I'm just
tired
okay
Bethael
you succeed
so you are
on fire
but you can
still act
normally
you can
if you
care about
removing
fire
which I
mean might
be relevant
for Bethael
I don't
know
you can
make a
hard agility
test
so a
minus 20
agility
to stop
duck and
roll
that will
however not
prevent
say the
flamer
goes again
yeah
exactly
flaming
Bethael
please make
your decision
flaming Bethael
can you put
someone else
out
yeah you
can
so I
can basically
like say
you can use
environmental
effects or
whatnot
to assist
as well
so that's
kind of a
GM discretion
for me
okay
pour bucket
of water
on or
put yourself
out with
your slime
yeah
Bethael
is going
to kind
of as
the fire
is starting
to exhaust
him is going
to glare
down this
flamer
let out
a just
a
and is
going to
immediately
just beeline
charge this
man full
speed ahead
yeah
and I
wish I
had the
turn to
frenzy
but I
want him
done
now
so
hello
gonna
swooce
on up
to him
going to
rev
the
chain
hammer
and I'm
going to
bring it
down
on his
whittle
head
once again
Willem
Defoe
from the
lighthouse
please
proceed
I
am
very
tempted
to
use
an
infamy
with
this
but
I
already
I
charged
so
I
am
gonna
get
a
plus
and
then
I'm
gonna
get
a
further
plus
from
my
skull
totem
so
I'm
at
a
plus
yeah
you
can't
possibly
fail
this
don't
say
that
to
me
be
quiet
Lehman
brothers
all
right
where's
my
that's
this
button
this is
the
one
okay
plus
get
his
ass
I
will
give
you
five
degrees
of
success
it's
gonna
get
his
ass
roll
damage
so
I'll
give
you
some
damage
and
then
I
will
roll
another
2d10
to see
if
it's
higher
I
don't
think
it's
gonna
matter
one sec
definitely
definitely
not
so
you're
gonna
smash
your
rending
thing
it should
automatically
I
play
in
public
just
so
it
automatically
does
it
for
you
nice
yeah
so
yeah
so
that's
points
of
damage
ignoring
the
armor
in
the
leg
so
that's
gonna
be
like
a
plus
critical
to
the
right
leg
this
is
a
rending
weapon
so
let's
go
find
what
rending
does
on
legs
rends
it
I'm
sure
with
a
meaty
chop
the
leg
comes
away
at
the
hip
the
target
pitches
to
the
ground
howling
before
dying
ah
okay
so
as
above
except
the
tide
of
blood
is
so
intense
that
for
the
remainder
of
the
battle
anyone
making
a
run
or
charge
action
within
six
meters
must
make
a
challenging
agility
test
or fall
one
moment
gonna slip
on my
ass
you are
um
I will
place
down
a
fine
little
template
here
one sec
that's
okay
I
want
I want
to slather
this
canyon
in
blood
I'm
close
enough
I don't
need
to
charge
again
it's
like
there
okay
I've
placed
the
token
you can
now
see
the
blood
zone
blood
as
like
this
leg
comes
off
and
you
just
see
crimson
start
spattering
against
the
walls
and
leaking
into
the
ground
in
every
which
way
as
you're
on
fire
the
rest
of
these
guys
are
like
what
the
fuck
yeah
I'll
turn
to
the
rest
of
them
and
just
blood
for
the
blood
god
yeah
well
this
guy's
dead
for
the
dead
god
so
oh
you
don't
have
to
roll
now
Zoran
it's
only
if
you
move
in
the
area
I
was
pre-rolling
just to
see
it was
time
I
bet
okay
and
yeah
then
you'll
take
a
point
of
fatigue
oh
I'm
tired
I'm
sleepy
because
the
the
fire
is
like
starting
to
burn
you
cool
that's
your
go
Beth
that
cultist
is
dead
so
we'll
just
put
a
dead
token
on
him
and
then
there's
this
other
cultist
who's
not
dead
but
is
going
to
try
to
move
let's
see
how
that
works
for
them
he's
going
to
be
soon
he
slips
and
falls
so
he
like
just
like
basically
falls
in
place
and
that's
his
go
oh
hello
bee
yeah
the prone
thing
should
you
have a
bee
in your
house
it's
kind of
tacky
yeah
it's
my
funny
little
cat
fucking
germa
moment
just
no
it wasn't
germa
it was
what's
his face
from
vine
sauce
joel
i think
yeah
he had
the bee
in his
house
yeah
that whole
situation
there was
all animation
about it
too
it's
funny
oh my
god
this
one
goes
prone
oh
my
god
they're
all
just
slip
sliding
we
around
moving
up
towards
you
this
one's
full
moving
over
here
here
yep
very
cool
that's
first
round
done
we
come
back
to
Evgeny
so
Evgeny
you've
seen
a man
exploded
one
sent
hurled up
against a
wall
from a
from an
Astarte's
bolt
weapon
followed
immediately
by a
wave
of fire
coming in
which you
managed
to dodge
and then
as you
peek
your
head
around
you
see
Beth
IO
on
fire
running
up
and
just
destroying
what do
you want
to do
oh
and
the
plague
marine
seems
very
unaffected
beside
you
so
you know
but it's
still on
fire
is on
fire
deeply
irritated
yeah
he's
bothered
by this
but he's
okay
the worst
I'm gonna
do is
I'm gonna
go take
a nap
again
he's gonna
see this
horrified
at the
resilience
but also
the
people
exploding
in front
of him
but still
soldiers
a soldier
at the
end
of the
day
from
stealth
is
going
to
take
aim
at
the
cultist
in
front
of
him
and
I'm
gonna
overcharge
and
hit him
with my
best quality
last gun
try and melt
him from
stealth
okay
sure
circumstances
and am I
detected
not at this
moment so
you'll get
your bonus
on that
oh so
there's a
bonus
I'm sorry
a penalty
for a
prone
target
yeah
oh
prone
targets
are harder
to shoot
yes
you would
think they
would be
easier
so
okay
this is
like a
whole
this is
like a
whole
a whole
thing
sometimes
it's
it's
weird
it's
weird
it's
weird
it's
weird
no
prone
targets
would be
harder
to hit
because
their
profile
is a
lot
lower
yeah
yeah
it's
very
realistic
to do
that
it is
it is
trust me
I just
deal with
it because
pathfinder
kind of
does some
weird stuff
with it
that people
don't like
like being
prone makes
it harder
to attack
but like
everyone's
like but
if I got
a sniper
rifle and
I'm prone
so like
there's like
eight million
reasons why
it's better
in specific
circumstances
but in
this case
follow the
rules
hulky
murder
this man
absolutely
rolling
now so
succeeds
one degree
so one
hit
yep
oh for
max damage
though
oh zealous
hatred's
available
so that's
gonna
yeah click
that first
and it'll
add to it
or should
add to it
all
that's plus
five to
critical damage
and applying
wounds
okay
well
that's
it's
it's gonna
hit him
in the
body
it's
definitely
gonna go
through
and do
max
with that
with that
zealous
hatred
bonus
so
haha
we've got
bad news
for you
buddy
there's a
chance
all of his
ammo
explodes
so
you want
to read
the thing
I'm
I'm
I'm
pulling it
up
it's right
there
yeah
that's
right there
50% chance
carried
ammunition
explodes
yeah
that's
I'm
trying to
pull up
the
as above
is what
I'm
doing
I'm
so sorry
yeah
yeah
I was
on top
of it
don't
worry
the target
is completely
erased in
fire
melting his
skin and
popping his
eyes like
superheated
egg
he falls to
the ground
a blackened
corpse
except you
rolled one
higher
as above
if the target
is carrying
any ammunition
he is
it explodes
so there's
a 50%
chance it
explodes
I'll roll
that
low is
good
low is
it'll
explode
good for
me
look how
fucking
stupid
this game
is
the ammo
does not
explode
the ammo
does not
explode
he's too
wet with
all that
blood
and he's
dead
okay
cool
is that
your go
Evgeny
I believe
so
all right
much more
yep
I'm passing
the buck
except
dead guy
is dead
this poor
fellow
is
is not
going to
move
but it's
going to
try
to fire
like near
point blank
at you
Bethael
with a
stub
automatic
pistol
in hopes
there's hope
here
he is
gonna even
aim
just to
see
shouldn't
have a
minus 20
on it
for some
reason it
does
I'm just
going to
offset that
with a
routine
okay
yeah if
you're rolling
it shows
everything
you can
click it
off
yeah
so you
can click
that
shooting
into
melee
thing
just
click
that
off
and it'll
oh neat
okay
well it's
going to
hit you
so I'll
turn that
off I
guess
so it's
gonna hit
you
and he's
gonna hit
you the
left arm
with a
stub
automatic
pistol
and it
bounces off
your armor
and he
looks
horrified
oh
the other
guy
seeing this
attempts
to escape
he doesn't
need to
run
he can
just like
slide
through the
blood
like a
penguin
well
I've
got
bad
news
he fails
and is
also
prone
all
right
it's
gonna
bring
us
over
to
this
feller
over
here
who
he's
about
to
have
a
lovely
day
he's
gonna
try
to
rush
up
to
you
by
zante
I
don't
know
why
by
zante
name
looks
like
he's
dead
I'm
gonna
undeadify
by
zante
please
don't
kill
me
yeah
I
don't
know
why
you
have
zero
wounds
by
zante
I
don't
know
why
either
I
should
have
more
than
zero
weird
I'm
gonna
rush
up
to
you
with
this
guy
all
right
and
then
I
will
I
will
I
will
that's
exactly
what
I'm
doing
oh
sorry
I
have
to
actually
give
you
the
correct
wounds
back
because
you
were
still
injured
and
he's
gonna
try
to
hit
you
we'll
try
to
willpower
see
if
he
can
do
that
is
it
was
it
minus
or
is
it
straight
minus
he
succeeds
with
a
one
whoa
this
guy's
cool
holy
shit
give him
a name
before
he
this
guy's
this
guy
yeah
he's
coming
his name
is
trevor
trevor
really
okay
makes
sense
he's
coming
at you
with a
makeshift
sword
someone
out there
is named
trevor
and they're
gonna be
so excited
no
you know
trevor's
deserve a
win
i agree
holy
shit
holy
shit
savage
trevor
hits
you
uh
in the
in the
fucking
body
with
with
a
fucking
four
um
if you get
okay if he gets
zealous here
that would be like
the coolest
that would be
awesome
yeah at that point
we just need to recruit
him
holy
shit
fucking
trevor
boy
dude
what the fuck
this guy's way
cooler than me
um
in sec
trevor doesn't
fucking play
we gotta adopt
trevor
i'm sorry
trevor's coming with us
yeah i'm sorry
you've getting
you've actually
been usurped
uh
okay he's
him
okay
okay let's
like
i gotta
like
fucking
okay
zealous
like i guess
we all forgot
because i don't think
it does it for pcs
automatically so i'm
just gonna put it
in here
so here's the thing
what what we were
unaware of was that
when thirst and
clicked on that
unit he just had
the sound turned
all the way down
he clicked on him
and he went
our ball
the undefeated
and he charged
that speaker
screaming
you are
no
more
oh
oh god
oh okay
okay okay
so
so he's gonna do
12 points of damage
with no penetration
okay
but he did get
he did get
zealous hatred
which means
if the attack
does no damage
um
once reduced
by armor and toughness
it does
one point
of damage
he does
one point
of damage
to you
yay
awesome
uh
his sword
does need to
check and see
if it breaks
on my chain
vandaliers
oh is that a thing
okay
yeah because my
chain vandaliers
count as uh
when i'm hit
with a melee attack
if it doesn't
have a power
field it is
uh has to test
to see if it
breaks as if
it you know
is hitting a
power field
oh okay
one sec
um
oh
that's really
funny
yeah
the first guy
to break
through the
field gets
every single
possible thing
that's the
power of
name
except
except
good damage
yeah
names have
power baby
one sec
um
where was
what was
chain vandaliers
in the main
book
yes
okay
armor upgrades
i'm assuming
yeah it's
the uh
it's the thing
that i rolled
for my power
armor
okay one sec
uh
chain
vandalier
page
i see it
here
okay
which then
sends me
to 162
75% chance
of destroying
his attacker's
weapon
yeah
yeah
all right
high is good
for him
now his weapon
breaks
his like
makeshift sword
just shatters
it was fucking
rad though
that was
fucking sick
like he's
and it's
probably like
it's probably
like when he
goes to hit
you the
chain
vandaliers
cause it
to break
but he
just takes
like a
nub and
sticks it
in like
a neck
griever's
like like
a neck
plate or
something
and draws
a little
bit of
blood
like screaming
at you
you
you
have
life
i am
going to
look upon
the one
standing
cultist
that is
in front
of beth
oil
and again
completely
unbound
i shall
catch
the most
mightiest
of magics
called
false
bolt
full
throttle
that is
a 17
i basically
blast this
son of a
bitch for
1d10
plus 2
plus 2
times
psychic
rating
you know
with impact
and all
this other
stuff
i do
roll
whole
punch
boom
i gotta
also roll
psychic
phenomenon
but still
rolled 5
on that
and that is
going to be
a total
of 15
i feel
like there
should be
i feel
like i missed
something
because there
should be
some pin
let me see
that might
be doom
bolt
i think
no
nope
that's basically
that
impacts
damage
from the
blood force
can
you hate
his right
leg
okay
yeah so
you're gonna
hit him in
the right
leg with
that which
is you
know
great
it's gonna
okay
yes
take off
his toughness
bonus
of three
she's gonna
take 12
he's gonna
get four
into there
that's what
it should
be
so yeah
there's
yeah
critical
damage
four
so
um
oh for
fuck's
sakes
sorry
i have to
target
every guy
is kind
of a problem
with using
that thing
this would be
a revert
button if it
i i did
i revert
it i did
um
but then i
should be able
to do that
right okay
yeah and then
it's gonna
fucking smash
into him
it's gonna
send him
flying
how many
feet
uh
in
1d5
d5 meters
so
oh well
it's knocking
him prone
anyway so
that's funny
yeah
let's roll
d6 if it's
one
okay so
he's gonna
like basically
like land
over here
go prone
take
1d10
roll me
d10 agility
damage
1d10
you got it
this is relevant
because it'll tell
if he can actually
stand up in the
blood
one um
so 26
beautiful
and now roll
your psychic
phenomenon
x
let's see if
we all die
but it's
gonna be
so remember
plus 10
yeah yeah
yeah
don't worry
i i've mentally
got you
oh cool
get back
to
the list
i was going
through the
roll book too
just the triple
check stuff
and i've lost
what
uh so
is
bloody tears
blood
weeps
from stone
and wood
within
3d10
meters
of the
psyker
if there
are any
pictures
or statues
of people
inside this
area
they appear
to be
crying
blood
uh
roll me
3d10

before the
mightiest
sorcerer
of prosperos
and about
17 around

sweet
happy birthday
bethiel

yay
i've added
a second
layer
of blood
to
excellent
the only
good slayer
song begins
playing
raining
blood
at this
point
this guy
also
once he
goes flying
he is
he is
going to
just
die
from
that
so
okay
cool
byzanti
you're up
you are
you have
several
individuals
in front
of you
including
savage
trevor
who
fucking
stabbed
you
savage
trevor
is getting
the utmost
of my
attentions
go
polly
i do
move
up
okay
five
i'll
spare
your
life
are you
moving
oh yeah
that's right
in the blood
yeah you
don't want to
be sure
you want
to do
that
he got
i interrupted
your turn
speaker my
bad
it's okay
you've
impressed
me
if you
can survive
this
i might
just
spare
your
life
and
i am
going
to
uh
while
here
uh
i'm just
gonna go
ahead
nothing
too
crazy
i'm
i am
going
to make
a half
action
aim
and then
full
auto
uh
point
blank
uh
focused
on
savage
trevor
but really
okay
we're
we're
wanting
to spread
the love
to his
friends
yeah
of course
of course
all right
do it
all right
that's
eight
degrees
of success
which means
i am able
to shoot
out
four
five
uh
because it's
four plus
the one
so i'll put
two on
trevor
and then
one
two
uh
one two
three on
everyone
around him
uh
if i have
to put
a second
one
one two
three
four
yeah
no
that
that counts
it
that counts
it
okay
so five
shots
okay
all right
so let's
roll
damage
savage
trevor
first
savage
trevor
first
so the
first
two
hits
yep
yeah
so he
takes
to the
body
pen
four
so that's
just
that's
just
gonna
do
eight
points
of
what is
that
energy
damage
yep
okay
so energy
damage
to the
body
uh
oh yeah
he's quite
dead
all right
for your
fifth one
next to
your weapon
and your
sheet
there should
be a
blood
icon
uh
roll that
they'll just
only do
that should
get your
last one
there you
go
very good
very good
um
then the
next one
is gonna
hit this
poor sod
in the
right leg
which will
end him
i'm really
just seeing
if there's
any
death
effects
that are
gonna cause
anything
otherwise
they're just
kind of
dying here
um
this one
is also
going to
die
you'd like
this
cacophonous
blast that
is tearing
into them
the last
one however
will not
take enough
in the
left leg
until you
hit him
in the
head
um
so you
kind of
like spray
over savage
trevor
which just
like fucking
like
compresses
his body
and he
falls down
dead
you take
out the
leg of
this guy
who just
falls down
dead
um
you hit
this guy
who just
is like
struck
um
in the
same leg
so the
right leg
on both
of them
and both
of them
are just
taken down
crumpling
um
you hit
this fellow
in the
further back
in the
left leg
he stumbles
but he's
still up
but the
stumble
allows you
to concentrate
that last
hit
on his
head
which
causes his
head
to
um
oh
let's
find out
here
um
his head
explodes
by the
sonic
vibrations
but it's
so much
vibration
that he
catches
on fire
um
and then
runs
headless
seven
meters
in the
direction
of a
scattered
eye
oh
lovely
uh
he runs
seven
meters
this
way
um
so to
the
sort of
like
up
against
the
wall
essentially
running
like
to the
northwest
kind
of
parallel
to
you
um
and
collapses
in a
heap
of
fire
dead
the
song
is
all
and
uh
this is
all
happening
by the
way
um
just so
we're
clear
um
this is
all
happening
well
all of
the
skeletons
um
that are
like
mounted
on the
on the
like
the canyon
walls
here
these
sort
of
like
guilted
and
you
know
some
normal
and
just
ragged
skeletons
that have
been
crucified
here
are
all
now
weeping
blood
uh
oh
that was
from
the
spell
so
that was
from
life
they're
all
weeping
blood
now
so
that
i just
want
people to
people to
know the
fucking
horrific
scene
we've got
going on
here
this is
uh
yeah
yeah yeah
yeah basically
uh
all right
that's gonna
be the end of
byzantes go
i think that
brings us
to cephas
right
uh
assuming
everyone else
is
oh
let's
let's
assuming
everyone else
is dead
in between
me
and
that
yeah
uh
yeah there's
two prone
guys here
that remain
okay first and
foremost i gotta
make your
accursed check
yes
i don't think
it's not gonna
go well i only
got 32 so
okay
i got 32
uh
perfect
you are
you are on
the fire
but
whatever
in game
and in dice
hell yeah
here's my
question i want
to ask if we
clean up this
combat encounter
can i put out
the fire without
having to constantly
make checks for
it i'm going
to say this
i'm going to
say this if
you're in the
combat encounter
i'm going to
declare the
the fucking
like blood
leaking down
from all of
these skeletons
will be a
sufficient fountain
to quench the
flames of the
holy imperium
then i'm going
to usher us
along into the
finish line
now now before
you do because
i see you're
measuring you
may not want
to move in
that lighter
circle because
that's the
the slippy
fall land
well i can't
i can't hit
anything
yeah you can
see that guy
who's brown in
front
can i
yeah yeah
you can also
just you can
just move
oh there we
go
i didn't think
that would
change my
point of view
that much
no no
for sure
whatever
anyway i'm
going to shoot
that guy with
my bolt gun
over there on
the far right
side
yep
i wanted to
use a grenade
so bad
i wanted to
see what
would happen
because it
would kill
like all
of you
yeah
i also just
don't want to
hit byzante
all right
time to fire
my gun
i like this
byzante
not like
you know
oh it's
gonna fucking
fly back
and hit
evgeny
and evgeny
will die
it'll be
fine
i've got
distance
anyway 48
uh that will
give me
three degrees
of success
let me roll
my damage
on that
yep
i'm rolling
high on that
uh that's a
zealous hatred
so 15
uh click that
roll zealous
hatred for me
zealous hatred
add plus eight
critical damage
when applying
wounds
uh critical
severity 20
oh uh
explosive damage
so you hit him
in the leg
um with the
right leg
which then
uh explodes
um if he
carries any
ammunition
um it
explodes
um there's
no there's no
grenades on him
so we're lucky
there he does
have ammo for
his pistol
though so
roll me a
d10
two
okay so
that's going
to that's
just out of
range
seven
but
it's gonna
it's gonna
actually
shrapnel up
the guy
next to him
real bad
let's do
one
so one d10
plus five
um
yeah it will
because you rolled
the two
so that
that one like
this guy gets
messed up
real bad
no one else
has really
hurt
it says
as above
deals
it deals
one d10
plus five
impact to all
within i'm rolling
one d10
plus five
oh yeah that's
right that's
right yeah
yeah yeah
so one d10
plus two
so that'd be
four
so that's
actually gonna
damage him a
little bit
because he
doesn't have
much armor
so okay
now roll
the roll
again yeah
plus five
uh that'll
be at
twelve
uh that will
actually end up
killing the
other guy with
the bone
fragments and
exploding ammo
into him
see you did
use a grenade
you just made
that guy the
grenade
oh
yeah
cephas just
steps to the
side in front
of evgeny
levels the
bolt gun
again with
one hand
like a
fucking show
off and
shoots and
then both
of them die
from a single
explosion
and and
with that
um just to
keep us on
time here
um with
that um
the the
blood rain
that kind
of like
sprinkles down
from the
skeleton
lifos you
feel the
material like
the materium
power come
back into
you as you
know almost
like this
this this
canyon's last
gasp of
resistance to
the primordial
truth evaporates
with your
victory here
uh you can
see too that
all of these
scavengers are
are like
pilgrims who
failed and
just became
bandits and
robbers um so
they are still
all decked out
in like imperial
iconography and
and like
ecclesiarchal
symbols but
they are all
quite dead
now um
with that
the the
blood uh
removes all
of the fire
on all of
you so we
don't have to
worry about
that anymore
you're welcome
stop dropping
rolling all the
blood
yeah yeah
exactly exactly
exactly
remove your
fire
oboe
oh yeah
removing my
fire
um
well with
that um
uh are you
going to to
continue on at
this point you've
now defeated
them you can
tell that to the
west just a
short ways not
much further in
fact um the
canyon opens up
finally onto a
main road and in
the distance you do
see the silhouette of
a city it's again
sort of a a
proto hive city
large structures
nothing like a
hive a full hive
city but like the
almost like the base
of a hive that's
starting to form
that's really cool
so it's like in
construction we can
see like cranes
and stuff yeah
yeah absolutely
that's really sick
i love that i
wanted to ask a
question actually
thurston and this
is not this is not
like my big like
i'm the i'm the
good guy brain
rolling around with
this i'm going to
assume that based
on that camp that
we just kind of like
cleaned out of
these bandits that
there was no sign of
the old man's girl
anywhere
um yeah so if
if you look
around you you
will find that
there are there
are corpses that
have been piled up
in sort of like
not not a bunker
per se but like a
like an interior
section that they
carved out if i
pull out the
actually here
once i can bring
us back to the
map yeah and i'm
just gonna move
you around cephas
to show you if
you kind of come
up these stairs and
were to come into
this structure here
sorry the gming
pathing is weird
sometimes yeah
there's walls
there's a ghost
icon you click
and you're wall
yeah um
yeah so so you
can kind of see
that like around
here if you come
down to about here
there's like a
a passage that
leads deeper into
the rocks and
inside that passage
what you find is
essentially like a
couple of corpses
maybe maybe a dozen
uh one of them is
very clearly another
guardsman from
evgeny's regiment
um that was
ambushed in this
area uh one of
the matches the
description you
would have got from
the old man and
his daughter she
was clearly ambushed
by these people
naturally
cephas isn't shaken
by this in the
slightest he merely
makes a note of it
and takes tally
awesome
there's nothing
different about it
you know it's like
oh what a shame
we'll go we'll go
waste time and take
her back to the
fucking old man
no just it is
what it is i
assume you've kind
of left the old
man with that info
and are now moving
on more or less
unless you unless
you want to take a
day to go back to
him but no we
will we will leave
him with that and
he will continue on
with whatever he's
got left i'm not
cephas isn't fussed
about it okay i will
make a private prayer
to slanesh that she
might take that old
man unto her loving
embrace excellent all
right towards the city
them oh before we
go i'm i'm i'm
taking that flamer
guy's head i'm
wrenching it off
their shoulders
hundred percent
as one does
hundred percent
um
erndel i'll get you
to read this quote
okay
i first beheld the
truth of the gods
when i walked upon a
sunless world
i saw a vastness of
architecture that would
have shattered sanity
if not for one simple
fact no one remained
such accomplishment
meant nothing to the
powers that dwell in the
immateria all that
remained on that world
was the dancing of
ghosts and the cries
of lingering souls
awaiting the thirsting
jaws that would return
to consume them
excerpt from the first
testament of zolan anki
the path to the city is
quiet
it's
it's it's you're not
sure who notices it
first maybe it's a kind
of a communal group
moment but there's no
movement
there's lights but there's
no flickering there's
there's no activity within
the city
eventually you pass by the
first outer guard posts
they're empty
eventually you reach the
outer walls of the city
itself
also empty
the doors admitting you
in with no problem
partway within is when
you find the first body
citizens
of the cursed imperium
their skin almost a wax
in gray
staring up
wide-eyed
in poses
strange
many of them
look as though
they were in prayer
some simply
fell over
do any of you
have medicaid
uh
well
i don't
but someone
someone who's not
here does
mm-hmm
i don't got nothing
i don't think any of us
have medicaid
the best i can do you
is deceive
i could lie
you absolutely could
scrutiny would be another
one i'd allow here
also have a cult
that would also be
a cult actually you know
what i will i would allow
a cultism here this is
very
gotcha
ritually
any modifiers
uh i'll give you a plus
10 actually
for this
mighty my turn is gonna be
that is a 27
yeah
uh
lifos
you're you're sort of
quiet as you're
you're maneuvering
through this
um
this is
this is ritual
um
in fact you
you eventually
piece together
from what you're saying
this is a ritual
enacted on a large
scale
and what you
what you realize
about this
and you don't want to
tell your companions
right away
is the
the reason that the
pallor of these people
is how it is
is that they've all
been drained
of their blood
the blood of the
entire city
has been
taken out
though you find not a
drop of it
within the structure
itself
in fact
eventually
you don't even have to
make this fact known
uh with your
with your forbidden
knowledge
you do know that this is
some potent ritual
meant for some
obscene purpose
whether it's
gaining infamy
in the eyes
of of the great
powers
or as you know
part of some
larger ritual
you can't be sure
this in itself
could be a ritual
that could gain
one infamy
and praise
in the eyes
of those powers
but eventually
all of you
come to the same
realization
the body's here
bloodless
um
it's probably
made
uh
evident
when
bethiel
eventually
loses control
and an anger
strikes one of the
bodies
and nothing
comes out
of it
hmm
this isn't
right
this isn't
right
and as you
approach
the
the sort of
loading docks
here
you you find
one
one vessel
old
clearly
weather
worn
harvest
lighter
that sits
on the
pad
um
ready
for
a group
to come in
it'll be cramped
but you can
all fit
the one
vessel that
can take
you off
of this
emperor
formerly
emperor
enlightened
world
you realize
that this
must be
the handiwork
of the one
you came
in search
of
that this
is the
actions of
your dreaded
foe
the dark
apostle
zolananki
that is
where we
will end
today's
episode
