Season 1 Episode 4 A Tim-less Adventure _ Plan Sea D&D Campaign
===
[00:00:00] Hello, and welcome to Plan C, Tabletop Gaming Center's Pirate Dungeons and Dragons adventure. My name is Chris Boyd, he/him. I am your dungeon master this evening, joined by our wonderful crew. Uh, hello, my name is Kyle, he/him. I'm playing Tingus Pingus, also he/him. And just remember, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.
Wayne Gretzky, Michael Scott, me. Hi, everybody. I'm Heather, she/they pronouns. I play Thora Faust. Um, Gong Xi Hao. It is the Chinese New Year, so, uh, wishing everybody a Happy New Year Hi, I'm Maeve, she/they, and I play Riven, she/her. And did you know that white tip sharks actually hunt in packs? So if you are swimming in the ocean and you see one white tip shark, you'll probably see another one.
But don't worry, they just eat reef, um, reef creatures, so you're all good. They just eat reef. Just eat reef. Yeah. Hi, I'm [00:01:00] Cameron, pronouns he/him. I'm playing Aldrin, pronouns also he/him. And if your cat is watching, my fictional cat, Saja, wants to be their friend. And tell your cat I say psst, psst, psst, psst, psst.
So last we were with our crew, they were visiting the island that produces the rum for the Pirate Republic, purchased by some cleric wizard of some sorts. Though they were behind on their deliveries and slightly short. Plus, if you're gonna have a coronation for a new pirate king, you better make sure that's up to snuff.
Gotta have the rum. So while making a pit stop, you notice some commotion outside this wizard's tower, and see a swarm of picketing zombies [00:02:00] who are unionizing of sorts. You go to meet with them, and eventually meet with their big version, and eventually their in charge version, who informs you of the full situation.
Most of the zombies don't know what's going on, forced to work for this secret necromancer to produce rum he can sell to keep his operation going. And as this necromancer, Tim, experiments with intelligence, some of the success stories would like to leave. And with your help, now that you have offered and sided with the zombies, maybe put a stop to what Tim is doing So [00:03:00] we join you all on this beach discussing these plans with the zombie pirate captain, uh, Peter Rabbit.
I thought we were being taken back- ... already. Uh, you're on your journey. Okay. We're, we're talking and walking. Yes. We're walking and talking. If you would like to, I don't know, plan anything. I guess you don't have to. We could fast-forward to that scene. When, when have plans ever worked out for this crew?
Wait, wait, guys, guys. Name me one plan that's ever worked out for this crew. Guys. Plan C. I didn't even tell you about that stinking room upstairs. Oh. So I mean- Oh, yeah, where that big boom happened? Yeah, that was weird. I don't understand why the door did that. Oh, right. The door did that? Yeah. I opened the door with my little pick, and it just all of a sudden shocked me like 1,000 suns and I went flying.
There was a ward on it. What's a ward? It's magic. Magic. For rooms you should go in. But it's a door, it can't have... [00:04:00] Oh. It's a door. You put magic on the door. Yeah, 'cause, 'cause you know how my basketball is magic? You can, you can make anything magic. But like, I didn't know that you couldn't, like, go inside because of magic.
Like, it would k- hurt someone. Yes, if people really don't want you to read their diaries, you put wards on the doors. So you think that's what's behind the door is a diary? Probably, or- Ooh, it'd be crazy ... a grimoire. I'm pretty sure it might have something to do with them. Uh-huh. 'Cause he didn't want us in there, right?
Yes. Exactly. He likely has many secrets. Once we- he's taken care of, then we can look into it. Wait, can we go inside? Once he's taken care of, then we can look into it. I think you already answered that question. But this, River didn't get to go in and, like, really look around. We should go look around in there.
Okay. Okay, but... You know what? It's not my job. See? It's not my job. This is what I was talking about. I'm just- It's so much fun ... here to supervise. We're gonna go find secrets. That's my specialty.[00:05:00]
Do we intend to plan how we're going to take care of a necromancer of unquantified power, or are we just going to, you know, walk in and- Why don't we just stab him? Isn't he, like, in Tybalt's like- I mean, if he bleeds, we can kill him. Like, that's... 'Cause, like, isn't he, like, under our control? As a zombie on
a meander next to you. Ah. Like, he doesn't know we're, like, against him. Riven, how have you survived this long? With sheer luck. I believe it. Well, at least she's aware of it. Hey So when we get back, uh, dealing with Tim, um- Hello, Tim ... obviously he needs to pay for his crimes against humanity. Just like, yes, uh, humanity.
Um, so I mean, I don't feel like we should just [00:06:00] lock him up and then take him to a court martial or something. I mean, we could just kill him. I mean, technically he's under- Oh wait, is that offensive to our new friends? Like, are you cool that we kill- killed Tim potentially? They've made it rather clear. Yes.
Yeah, they're all cool with it. Great. Love that. Okay. Just wanted to make sure. Isn't he, like, under our jurisdiction since we're now under the captain, and he was, like, employed- No, he kind of was- ... by the- ... it, it was like a mutual agreement. It wasn't like a, a, a, like, hierarchical power- Just because you buy apples from someone doesn't mean you're allowed to kill them.
Just because we buy rum from him doesn't mean- Yeah ... we're allowed to kill him. But if they're not fulfilling the deal, isn't that also a reason to kill them? Isn't that, like, what we're- Generally not a killable offense, but, uh, you know, raising people- But, like, several ti- ... from the dead in a ma- So wait. So wait.
Are you more focused on the fact that- So wait. Okay. No, no, no. I think I got it. I think it- I think, uh, ultimately- So because he raised people from the dead- Mm-hmm ... we can kill him. But if it was just the [00:07:00] rum, we can't. He'd get a slap on the wrist. There it is. Yes. She did it. An actual slap on the wrist? Yes.
Like- I mean, no Or a metaphorical one ... it's a metaphorical one. Okay. We need to stop using metaphors when we're explaining things to her. I don't know how to do anything else though. I understand metaphors. Do you, Evan? Yeah. That's why I asked, like a slap on the wrist physically, or like you're saying something and you don't mean it.
That's what a metaphor is. All right. Are we- You just say something that you don't actually mean ... are we going to come up with, with a plan outside of we stab this gentleman? I, I don't know why you're looking at me. Aren't you supposed to do the, the game planning?
Got you there. Burn. That's not what I was hired for. Well, it's certainly not what I was hired for. I think it was what- That's kinda true ... Kit Kat was hired for
Convenient water skiing [00:08:00] out of
Um, planning, I just delegate. I can plan it. Okay, so we go in.
Well, I think we know your plan is, is the- We go in ... give 'em the old stab circle. Well, no, you guys said I... Well, no, you can't. We can't 'cause we- All right Yes, yes ... got raised from the dead. That's right. I understand that, Tybalt, unless of course we get in there and, and Tybalt's already killed him. Possible.
Ooh, that would make things a bit easier. Unlikely. He said he was going to, but possible. I think Tybalt doesn't like him 'cause of the undead stuff. I mean- That's why we all don't like him- ... we don't kind of like him because of that ... because of the undead stuff. Oh, I don't like him 'cause of his face. That's one way to do it.
Um, so we can maybe give it to our, our zombie friends, but then again, they... Well, maybe let our, our new, our new friends do the first, I don't know, hits on him or yeah, let them have first shots, and then we s- give them backup, kind of like they did, uh, with the, the, the, the f- the fight, [00:09:00] uh, we just had. With Big.
With Big. Y- Riven, yes, you don't need to really raise your hand. Okay. Um, so I have a question. You said m- he has magic to ward things. Ward's a word, right? Yes. Yes. So w- won't he also have magic to hurt us? Yes. Yes. Possibly. Yes. And he seems pretty powerful 'cause he, you know, brought a lot of people from the...
So should we be- That's probably over time ... worried about that? Well, if we can, I don't know, maybe cut out his tongue, he wouldn't be able to speak, thus not cast spells. I don't need my tongue to cast my spells. Are you sure about that? I don't know. Okay. Yeah. We'll test that out later. Most of the time with casters, they need to be able to speak and- Say something?
And make some funny- Or move their hands Okay ... and sometimes they need material, so okay, great. We cut out his tongue. We steal any, uh, pouches off of him. Basically, I don't know, make him... I don't really wanna say stripped- I, I, I- ... 'cause I don't want to see that. [00:10:00] Um- That'd be dumb ... and then tie his hands up. He can't do anything there.
Okay. Okay. I'm, I'm just gonna say this, though. If you're getting close enough to cut out his tongue, why don't you just cut his throat? Yeah, at that point, uh, cut out his tongue- You're, you're halfway there ... cut out his throat. Uh, isn't it, like, the balance? Didn't we, like, talk about that at the, the, the thing where, like, the balance of life- Mm-hmm
and the- Okay, but we were already- What was the answer to my riddle again? We were already... The intent. The intent. And his intent was bad, 'cause he's intending to do bad things to these people who are undead and, you know, not letting them have free will. So- All right ... we should- Let's just get in there, see how the entire situation's at hand, and then from there, we kill him.
I mean, yeah. Well- Okay. L- l- just, let's do that. Riven- Riven, do you have any magical methods of restraint or anything like that? I think so. Because that might be a good way to prevent him from casting spells. I have something that, like, can entangle him, but- It's worth a shot. [00:11:00] Okay. Uh, so you just, as soon as we get in there, entangle.
Is that what you want me to do? Well- No? Not immediately. Okay. Oh. We just need to get back. We need to assess the situation. I mean, he could be doing something to the captain- Because he doesn't know that, like- He could be doing something to Tybble. They both could be dead. Who knows? Let's hope. I mean, sorry.
I'm sorry. I know I'm not supposed to say that anymore I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that Hear what?
What did I miss? Are we at the door yet? Oldren is actively stifling a laugh. You, uh- Join the party ... Captain Peter, and a horde of- Love them ... zombies- Yep ... are with you. They're good. Um, Captain Peter is intentionally leaving, uh, most of the other zombies that wanted to leave kind of out of this fray for the time being.
Makes sense. But [00:12:00] his intention is to go with you. Perfect. Perfect. Um, great. Um, yeah, we continue to game plan, um, till we get to the point of the doorway back on in. So you're at the... There is a doorway at the bottom- Yeah ... of the tower. Kinda how we- That you can then- Yeah, how we got out ... ascend up to the ground level.
Yeah. Um, are you taking the zombies, are they going up with you first? I think that we should walk in first Yeah. And like they're- Yeah, back up behind you On our... Yeah, I feel like we should go in first. Yeah. Especially because he doesn't know that they're on our side. We could've just convinced- Should we like have a, have a signal?
Wait, wait, I feel like people believe me very well. Right, guys? Absolutely. Okay. So [00:13:00] what if I go in and I do the talking. I know you guys don't like when I talk sometimes, but I swear I'm gonna be good, and we tell him that we got them to work for him, and like bleed his guard down a little bit more, and then we kill him
It can't hurt Like, you know, a surprise attack. Ah!
It's not very sportsmanlike. So, so Captain Peter- We're not playing sports ... will turn around. So I'll stay back with him outside. Just a little bit. Just a little bit outside the door. Well, out, out of sight. Yes. But on the stairs. Yeah, so that- Sure ... we can give you a signal, um, to come inside and, you know, if you would like to, um- I think you'll know when.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The, the, the... You'll know. Yeah. It'll, it, it should be pretty obvious. Then you can confront him and- Yeah ... tell him how horrible he is. With your swords. [00:14:00] Mm-hmm I think that's a good, I think it's a good idea. All right. So that's what I'm doing? Yep. Yep. Okay. Great. Uh, so the zombies and Captain, uh, uh, Peter are going to be a couple steps, uh, down a staircase- Okay
so that their, you know, heads are out of sight. Mm-hmm. Uh, but all of you can be on the landing- Yeah ... um, at the door to the ground level. You can see if, uh, if you, uh, as you open the door that both Tim, uh, your captain, and Tibault are all still in the room. They're all currently standing in the far corner- Mm-hmm
um, having some conversation. Um, it looks non-confrontational for the most part- Okay ... at first glance. Okay. Uh, I'm [00:15:00] gonna run up to them and be like, "Oh my gosh, we did it. We did it." Oh, uh, a- and, um, Tim is incredibly excited, like, "Oh, how, what, uh, h- how? What did you do?" Well, we convinced them that it's for their best interest that they make the rum, and, like, if they don't, then they probably will die by your hands.
So we convinced them. They were very understanding. Um, and so that is how it went. How did you convince the... I, uh, they're not much- It's amazing what a little bit of threatening will do ... talkers. No, for sure. They are not much talkers, but they're great listeners. Absolutely. And they understood me, 'cause, you know, like, I'm a pretty good talker, and they're pretty understanding.
And honestly, they just kind of went, "Mm, yes."
And they agreed with what you were saying? Yeah, they agreed. They went, you know, back to their rum factory and started making the rum. A [00:16:00] little threatening, as I said, goes a long way. Who else is in the room? I'm behind Riven, not in front . Okay. I'm behind, but off to the side. So like, if we were walking through a door and like- I hear-
they're there, like I'm off to one side. Yeah, I've also- I'd probably still be in the door. I've sort of put myself in the opposite corner as Cathariss, that I'm like leaning- Yeah, I was about to say, leaning. We're both against the wall like, "Mm-hmm." Yeah. I'm in the, I'm in the door doing the, the hands on top of the door jamb thing.
I don't, I don't- I'm afraid of us all being clustered ... also being a convenient, you know- Yeah. Yeah ... visual block on anything behind them. I don't want us to be clustered, so I'm not on the same side as she is. Yeah, you're on the opposite side. Like we both- Understood ... kind of fanned out. Okay. Riven's in the center, and then we got Tingus holding up the door just like, "Yeah."
Okay. Can I have a deception check please? Yes. Yes. Sorry. Can it be with advantage if Cathara goes and mentions, she goes, "Yes, Captain. Uh, all is well. [00:17:00] We will have absolutely, um, we should have enough to catch up with the last, uh, shipment as well as have enough to come back for
your coronation." Hmm. Assisting with the lie I do have proficiency in it, if that helps. So do I. In order for advantage. Yeah. What did you get first? I haven't rolled yet. Okay. I was waiting for your answer. I got a nat 20, so- Yo. Let's go. That's good. Oh, Chrissy. Nice, that was good.
Never mind. For a 24. Okay
That was my advantage. Cheers. I just, I just went- You said, "Good roll." Good roll.
Okay. So [00:18:00] of... You have Tim- Mm-hmm ... Tybalt- Mm-hmm ... captain- Mm-hmm ... standing there. Mm-hmm. Of the three of them That's actually also interesting. I, so, so Kathara has moved up? I'm not really up. I, it's, like, it- Like, this? I took, I took the same thing as, as, uh, Dren. We both kind of, like, we were off to the side against the wall.
I would say if anything she just, like, s- didn't lean against the wall anymore. Like, she kind of, like, stood up a little bit more proper, hands behind her back, but also ready to grab her sword if need be. Okay. Then in that case only Riven- Okay ... please make a perception check. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. I was like, "Oh, make a dex save?"
That's what I thought you were saying. Yeah, I was ready for it. Chain lightning. Uh, 17 plus five is 22. Okay. Uh, of [00:19:00] the three of them you... And actually can you also make an insight check? Yeah. There's a couple layers of information here we're gonna- Oh, that one's not good ... let, let's get all of it before we- That one's not good
narrate. You said investigation? Uh, insight. Insight. Insight. Sorry. I might have said investigation. I don't know what the deal is. Uh, no, I think I misheard. Eight. Okay. Nice. You're not, you're not picking up the vibe, but you're... No, you- Locked in. I'm, yeah, right? Locked in on a physical stance, yeah. Locked in.
Locked in. They all definitely believe you, but Tibble does make a funny face. Okay. Okay. This man. Okay. Um... I don't understand the funny face. Yeah. Which actually makes sense for Riven. Yeah, that's good. Yeah, it does actually. Yeah. Yeah. All right. That face. Uh, what you can see right in front of you, uh, Tim is exceptionally surprised- Okay
at this turn of events. Um, maybe even surprised that you're here. "So wait, uh, but h- uh, I don't know how fast they're gonna... I don't wanna..." Now half [00:20:00] talking to you, half talking to the captain, like- Mm ... "I don't wanna overpromise or anything. It, it can take time to, to work things through a little bit. I, I, uh-" "Well, we've got time.
We got nowhere to be. The coronation night doesn't start without us, so we'll wait." I don't think we have a timeline. "Let's go wait upstairs." "Well, it depends if people know about it." Mm. "What?" Why would we go upstairs, Riven? The seats are right down here. "Yeah, this is where I entertain people. It's, it's-" "Okay, that's fine."
This is where all the seats are. Uh, they will gesture to sit down- Okay ... if, if that's - Sure ... where we're going with this. Sure. Uh, there are, there are, uh, both several, uh, couches- Mm-hmm ... individual chairs, uh, plenty for everyone if that's- I stay standing. Yeah, I'm gonna go leaning against the wall. No, come, come.
There's [00:21:00] no reason to- Yeah, I'm gonna- It's for you, Captain, man. You- we're, we're just here just to, you know, make sure you're safe. We're gonna wait with you
Uh, so can you tell me again h- how did this even happen? Uh, so Tim will sit- Mm-hmm ... um, in a chair nearby. The captain will sit. Tybalt will stand next to the chair- Okay ... with the captain in it. Mm-hmm. I don't know where you would like to be. I don't know where- I wanna... If that's the thing, I do wanna go wherever Tybalt is.
Mm-hmm. I do wanna walk up to Tybalt. Mm-hmm. Maybe whisper a little something in his ear. Okay. Do it. Yeah. Kathara's going to go, "Do it." Just gonna lean in and go, "Tybalt, darling, um, we are waiting with the zombies behind Tingus, uh, to, I don't know, kill Tim. Um, how would, what, that... Are [00:22:00] you cool with that?" Heard.
Thank you. Uh, if anything you protect the captain. Got it. Thank you. And she's just gonna head on
back and go, "So-" Incredible response. Heard, heard. Heard. Love that. Uh, hey, gotta make sure he knows what's going on. Uh, Kathara's gonna look at Tim and go, "So Tim," kind of now you have, you have Tybalt on one side, now Kathara is on the other side. Sure. "So Tim, um, you know, don't you normally, um... How, how do you oversee...
I mean, I know we ask these, um, your, your workers to take care of things. How do you normally oversee them?" You know, um, from a distance. From all the way up here or do you- Uh, no, I could go downstairs and- Oh. Um, I- ... command of sorts, you know? Okay. I would love to learn a little bit more. Um, if you could come, we just wanna make sure that, um, everyone is taken [00:23:00] care of and that everything is done properly.
I mean, it was a little bit to get them to what they need to do. Um, but, uh, we just need to make sure that, that everything is done the normal way you would normally do it. This is kind of not my wheelhouse, it's your wheelhouse. So you're asking him to come with you? Yes. Yes. Okay, okay. I just wanna know for, just- Uh, w- I, I'm not sure I totally understand, but, uh- Just come with me, Tim.
Sure. I, I want, and I wanna oversee and understand your method of how you work with them. Oh, well I can't, can't share the company secrets, as it were. You're literally in the presence of the pirate king. R- right, but you know. And we're keeping this contract with you so you continue to get paid. I, I do enjoy that.
I do enjoy that. So let's just say what is done here will stay here, and you will come with me. Well, easy now. I am being nice. Eh. And she just leans there- At this point, are you- ... with a feline smile ... [00:24:00] is he walking with her now? Uh, he has started to stand- Okay ... but hasn't moved from standing in front of the couch.
Mm-hmm. Which direction is he facing? Which direction is he facing now? Is he facing away from the door or toward the door? Um, if we can gesture to the thing. Yeah. No, uh, he would be- Our door is that door ... on the side. The door, yeah. So kind of face, technically facing the door. If you- Do we want to throw Tingus in the, in front of the door?
Yeah. So, so- Here so I'm over here ... uh, the, the furniture's mainly in the middle of this sort of- So like about here ... foyer. Give or take. Uh, yeah, maybe slightly. The, like one thing that way. Perfect. Okay. With a couch behind, a chair, uh, that direction, farther from the door- Okay Sure ... would be Tybalt and the captain.
Where is Tybalt in this one? Okay. Just so I can visualize. Where do you want him? I was about to say, 'cause I think- I was about to say- ... Reuben is here Okay. Then I would probably- I would be kind of- [00:25:00] Yeah, more this way, like that ... over here. Yeah. 'Cause wherever the captain would be, like if we want to like kind of- Yeah.
Mm-hmm ... she would be kind of behind. Yeah.
There we go. Okay. Do you have a bathroom? Unfortunately. Oh, my- Um, I, I mean, yes. Can you show me? Uh- Is it- It's not super accessible. I don't, I don't have, like- No. So no, you don't have a bathroom, or no- Yes, I've changed my answer ... you can't show me? I'm going with no. Why not? Riven, Riven, Riven. Why not? Just- Uh, I'm magic.
He can just wisp it away. That's the thing about magic. That is true, there are spells you can- You can just wisp it away That doesn't make sense. Magic doesn't make sense. I'm not really used to guests. Understandable. We're sorry, Tim. As shows. It, it's, it's- Okay, [00:26:00] that's a little rude. Tinkus. Tim, I'm sorry.
And things are a little- Can I start trying to slowly edge that I'm behind him? Like- Uh, yep ... along this way. Yeah. Okay. Sorry, Tim. Everybody's a little... I mean, I think dealing with, um, the undead, um, a lot's happened. Yeah, everyone seems a bit tense, um- A lot's happened very quickly ... Tim is gonna be insight checking the party.
I'm being so truthful right now. Yeah, I'm gonna be behind him. It's not so much- I also am being truthful ... it's not so much a truth thing as it is a- What's our, like, intention? Yeah, what is my in- um- Uh, everyone's very tense. No, I've... No, I understand. Yes, absolutely. Um, it's been a little bit of a whirlwind for us.
We did not expect to, uh, come into this, um, kind of, and dealing with this now. Um, but we'll make do with what we have to, and, um, I would like to make sure that the rum production is done [00:27:00] properly. So if you could. Uh, he will start moving towards the rear wall. This way? Away from the captain? Yes. Excellent.
Oh. How, how many feet away? Window. Window and/or stairs. You're not really quite sure until he gets there. Is he coming towards me to go downstairs where we've asked him to, or is he going the opposite direction? Uh, sorry, the upstairs stairs- Right .../window. Okay. Not the door to- Yes ... that basement. So he's- Which would be towards me- Towards you
in, in real life. Okay. So he was here, so he'd probably be this way. Yeah, and he's going to slowly kind of keep walking while checking in with everyone. Yeah. "Yeah, let's just take a quick, quick little detour." And, um, the curtain's slightly open, slightly ajar. [00:28:00] Uh- pulls them a little bit more open and is looking outside.
Yeah. Kathara is, is, is behind him. I don't, uh, uh- You don't see them down there, I guess. Right. Now that he's looking down, can I try to... Kathara's like off to the side like, "Yes, of course. They are-" And you're just gonna try to escape this man right now? I would like to attempt to stealthily cast hunter's mark on him.
Sure. 'Cause he's looking out the window. Yeah, Kathara is keeping him distracted. Okay. Yeah. Do I have advantage because he's distracted? Advantage on what? Hmm? The, the- Sleight of hand check to cast- Sleight, sleight of hand check ... or stealth ... hunter's mark. Yeah. 'Cause I would assume goggles do not- 'Cause I was trying, that's why I was trying to get behind him and wait till he was facing away from me.
Uh, yes. Cool. Okay. Bring a suffering.
Nat 20. Let's go. All right, so I've got hunter's mark cast on him. Kathara's doing a great job. I sh- I start, started just like whistling a little tune. Uh, um, [00:29:00] um, okay. And my pupils sort of like go like slits. Okay. As- Which you, which you've s- all seen before- Yeah ... when I'm fighting. Uh-huh. As you whistle, sh- uh, Riven's gonna look at Kathara and be like- And she's got, but she's- So she's dealing with Tim and she's going, "Like, stop."
So yes, so Tim, um, as you can see, they are not in here because we've started, we, we've sent them into- The distillery ... the distillery. That's why you don't see them down there. I mean, I don't, I don't understand what they're not understanding from this, but we have to go down there so that we can make sure that they are doing what they're supposed to because you said you control them or whatever it is you do.
Oh, actually to clarify, it would've been to move Hunter's Mark because I still had it up from the last fight 'cause I never broke concentration. Makes me- Mm-hmm ... move out of section. [00:30:00] No, one class. Yes, you are still, you are, you are- Yeah. Yeah, so that was just a stealth move ... still comfortably within the one hour.
To move it. Yeah. Yes. Cool. Yes. To now shift it. Cool. So yes. Um, when you do so, you do see Tim stir a bit Well, that's not good on a nat 20. He's almost- He's magical. Yeah, well. He was not looking at you. Yeah. See ya. And Reverend's gonna be like, "Sorry."
Ting is just trying not to lose it in the doorway. Just, I can see all of this from where I'm standing, and I'm just like, "Oh, no." No, uh, excellent point. Just give me, uh, one second, and he's, and he's peering out the window again. Um- And as he does that And as he does that- Can I pull up my dagger [00:31:00] and stab? Is- I was gonna ask if I could shoot him.
Casting something. I want to cast Entangle. That's great. I'm gonna... That's why her hand was where she w- was on her, on her stuff, so she could- Yeah, I was gonna ask if I could shoot him. Around the back, sneak attack You know, I mean, I might not be great. Yep, let me, let me roll. So as you are unsheathing- Yeah
uh- So she's kind of ha- like, she's had it ready- Mm-hmm ... from the initial of in there, and will go and at least attempt to. Yay. Attempt is the right word. Attempt is the right word. Yeah. Well, you can roll for initiative. Yeah. Can I also- Everyone ... since we were... Oh, okay. Everyone. We're all doing it, cool. We all get to do it.
Hooray. Thank goodness. Ah. As the facade is over. Yeah. Oh, let's go. All right. Big initiatives. This is pretty great. Okay. Quick one. Sorry, uh, oh, not everyone's rolled yet. 30, 20. No, I can't roll- 23 ... [00:32:00] for... Yeah, I haven't rolled initiative above a- Anyone higher? No, a 10 Got 'em. Ooh, interesting. Just say it's Fidge, okay?
crony. I rolled a, I rolled a crit, so. Okay. You rolled a crit? Nice. Yeah. Oh, wait, just now? Yeah. For initiative. Grapple him and then let me stab him. Gra- with what strength? I don't know. Well, I wanted to entangle him, but someone told me no. See, I feel like I should just push him out the window. Sorry, Kathar was 21.
21. Yeah. You know what? I mean, my strength's a negative one. And- Can I just... I was a dirty 20. Yep. Can I, can I... This is Sparta him out the window? This is Sparta. Oh, if I was a higher level warlock, I could just push him out with- Repelling blast ... repelling blast. Yeah. Mm. Except no. Yeah. We don't do that here.
Oh, wait. Hold up. Yet. I didn't roll for Pete. Mm-hmm. Ooh, interesting. Yet is the keyword. Ooh, let's go, Pete. Let's go, Pete. We love Pete. That's my boy. I painted him. What? +4. That's why we're on, like, the same- I have to [00:33:00] rewrite everything? +4? Not higher than me. I'm so glad Pete's on our side. +4 in this economy?
Yeah. In this economy. In this action economy. In this action economy. This guy. Let me see. Um.
All right. And then Tubbol got a lowly 18, so he's sick. He's a lowly 18. I know. I was like, "Oh, and they rolled high. Where's our party gonna go?" Okay. My six takes offense to that. Hey, on the bright side, also six. You know? I would just like to say that I have not rolled above a 10 the entire time. Wild. Ooh.
So, you know, there's really no differ- you could have rolled a 17, and you would've been in the same place. And you still would be in the safe spot. You know? That actually makes me feel better about myself. It's a vir- it's, you rolled a virtual 17. That's- Yeah. Look at you. Yeah. There [00:34:00] we go. Man, this inflation is wild Wow, I felt, I felt okay until you-
Just don't patronize him. Okay, so, uh- Patronizing ... Tim announces the facade is over, but Tingus, you are the first to react. The fa- I just imagine Tim like- I'm just gonna whip my- ... "The facade is over" I'm gonna whip my basketball out- ... when he does that. Yeah. Nerd, nerd. Nerd. Dunk on him. Dunk on him, please. No, I can't...
I could, but- Dunk on him ... range. I can't, I'm an outside shooter. Meta- Metaphorically dunk on him. Metaphorically dunk, yeah. Yeah, metaphorically. Okay, but like, but like I could actually dunk on him. Hmm. Like that's, that's the difference here. Hang on, my character sheet's been-
Is it, does it crit? It's a dunk on him. It's a natural crit. It's a crit. I said dunk on him. Roll
that way. Is this the night for crits? This is like the fourth [00:35:00] D20- Oh, God Yep. Fourth D20, wow. 20. One of my- Two D20s. 20. 20. Two 20s. Yep. Someone's turn. Well, this is enough everybody. We can just pack it all in. Go home. No, it's not. It's only 10, 10 damage. Hi guys, it's been a great stream. Let's just pack it up.
I win. But that is my third attack that I've hit in this current game day, so my ball does light on fire. Oh, nice. Mm. Jesus. That's nice. Yeah. Lighting up. Yeah, I've, I've caught fire. Nice. He's, he's on fire. All right. I'm, guys, I'm gonna move out of the door. Uh- Move out of the, yeah, out of the way of the door.
Did you all... Uh, just point of order- He would have been here ... 'cause I didn't clarify before. I'm, like, off behind him to the side. He would have been here. There we go, yeah. Riven's still there. And Fireeye's still been there. Yeah. And you're there. Cool. Yep. Okay. Thank you. Did you all agree with Tim on a sort of plan- We basically said he- Wait, Tim?
Or just there was... Sorry, sorry, Peter. I meant Peter. Peter. We, we- My apologies He would know when to come on in. Yeah. I think he- So the flaming basketball is probably- Yeah. Uh, yeah Probably, [00:36:00] yeah. I think him moving out of the way and the basketball, like... Yeah, yeah. Here it go. To be fair, Tim did say the facade is over very loudly.
'Cause you are the closest two from, to where they are. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Um- Yeah. They de- they definitely- To add- My boy. My boy ... so, uh, right outside the door- Yep ... uh, with a slight gap as- One up. There we go ... the rest of the zombies begin to enter. And just kind of swarm forward. Uh, that is going to be them.
Kathara. Great. Uh, yeah, I guess, uh- Two more stabs ... dagger, uh, go stab. Uh-
That's not great. Um, one off. That's, that's missing a zero. It's missing a zero. It's one off. Um, actually wait. Uh, let me redo [00:37:00] that. Wh- why? 'Cause I meant to do my bonus action first. Just steady aim. Oh, I don't know. That's up to the DM. It's up to you. Uh, no, I already rolled it. Hmm. I was gonna roll it, did it, missed him.
It's fine. Okay. Well, I mean, he's a nerd. He may have a very low AC. Yeah. What'd you, what'd you get total? A seven.
That does miss. Yeah, I know. Uh, I think the zombie's coming and she's like, "Wait, what?" Yeah. They're very distracting. Just, yeah, you had a basketball whiz by your head- Yeah, she's like, "Whoa" ... and slam into Tim. I just need to quick... Where is everyone? We're in our proper spots. So we put the, we put the window... I know.
I need to see. Oh, here. We can- Okay. I can't remove that. Can you rotate Tim slightly towards Peter? Towards Peter? Okay. Wee. Perfect. Thank you. Ah. Is Tim's turn. Uh, oh no. [00:38:00] Tim rolled so high. That's what I said. Oh no, we're turning 22 Peter. I need... Well, I'll be rolling for Peter, but Kathara, everyone in the direction- Oh, actually I can still bonus action Steady Aim, 'cause it'll give me advantage on my next roll.
Yeah. That's what it is. Okay, so what do I need to do? Uh, con save. Do I need to, or am I outside of whatever this is? 60 feet cone. Oh, cone? I'm well outside of that. 'Cause- From where he's facing, I'm over here by the table. Oh. Yeah, he's moved. Yeah, I, I moved out of the way. So it's just me, Peter Rabbit, and the horde of zombies.
No, he's mostly aiming at the horde of zombies. Yeah. So I don't think that there's a way where, like, the cone would be positioned, like, along the wall. To hit me also. I don't think so. Yeah. Well, cones do weird things. Yeah, it's like a- If it's me, Peter Rabbit, and zombies- Yeah ... I'll go down with them. It's fine.
Yeah. Con save. You got this, I believe. Maybe? [00:39:00] Ooh, 18 plus... Ooh, a dirty 20. That's where it's at. Excellent. Look at you. Dirty 20, it's fine.
I like how I got these in, like, this coppery gold and I'm like, ooh, well, the D20's very easy to see. Ooh, okay. I need to write down- Hell, yeah ... Peter. My boy. Yeah, he- No ... failed. Oh, no. Oh, boy. And takes 31. Long dead. Ooh, ooh. Is Peter dead-dead again? No. No, he's fine. Oh, thank goodness. That man's probably got better stuff.
Uh, he is chilly. That's a good- Yeah, that's exactly what it was. Uh- Is that cold? Yes. Is that cold? Yeah. How much do I get? 15. Halfway there, baby. Oh. This man is higher level than me. I would've been unconscious. I, I'm at nine. I'm currently at 13. We should stay friends.
Okay. Yeah, Riven, [00:40:00] you do what you like. That's true. If I get too close, I'll still get- Live or die. Uh, the- Heads I'm a- ... zombies advancing also pretty much halt, yeah. Yeah. Okay. Bite his neck. I'd say something else, but that's not appropriate for stream. Tear his throat out. Uh- I know exactly what you're talking about.
Riven- Mm. It is your turn. Mm. All right You would think I would know what I was gonna do. Actually, I do. Okay. Um, I'm going to cast entangle. Yeah, you could entangle. I mean, make sure he doesn't move. Yeah. Yeah. I'm not trying to move. I am gonna cast entangle, and it's a 20-foot cube, so I'll have it, like, here so it tr- it doesn't get you.
It'll be like, oh, you'll be on the outside of it. He's... Yeah. Yeah. Um So if he tries to backhand- He needs to make a dex save, right? [00:41:00] La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la. Strength save. Strength save? Yeah, he's a wizard, right? He's small. Oh. I would definitely assume. He's a small wizard, though. He casts punch. I cast swole.
Uh, Tingus would be jealous.
Googling Furious research Hold. Hold. Please hold one second. Vamp. Someone vamp.
Yeah, that means be quiet everyone. That's what vamp means. Oh, yeah, dude. Yeah, thank you. I appreciate the solidarity there. Let's just, no leave him out to dry. Oh, yeah, dude. What does it look like as you cast entangle? Yeah, what does it look like? Oh, okay. You can describe it. Oh, actually, actually- As, as, as you, as you attempt to entangle him, what does it look like?
So, um, instead of, like, vines, what it would normally be for, like, a normal druid, it's actually, like, a kelp forest. [00:42:00] Ooh. And so it's like- Ew, and it's wet? Yeah. Oh. Like, like, ew bro. Is this still on bloodshed? Yeah, on bloodshed. I always, I always thought more of, like, a red algae swarm. Yes. Yeah, it's the, it's that icky thing- Ooh, that would be cool
when you go in the ocean and it touches you. But it's, like, that, like, kelp forest where it, like- Yeah ... wraps and s- like slops and, like- Yeah, 'cause we love water ... you know? Yeah, like the- Ew. You're like in- Yeah ... that's what freaks you out when you're in the water- Yep ... because you- The description got worse
like in Harry Potter when he's, like, with the Grindylows. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's immediately, I was like- Yeah, exactly. ... ew. I heard that and went, "Ugh." Thank you for that. I forgot that that was what I was gonna do with that. He's like, "Ugh." What's that? Ugh. All right, uh, that happens. I guess I should- I hate that
roll. Uh, it's a strength save. Strength. It says strength, so nice- Oh, it doesn't matter what it is ... advantage on a strength save. Nice advantage, nerd. What was it? Double sixes. Plus zero. Um, so he has- No, he has better strength than- ... a restrained condition. He has better strength than me? He's[00:43:00]
a monk. Oh, true. Monks are so buff. He picks up rocks. All right. So he's in a restrained condition. And then- Yes ... um, as my bonus action- I think it gives us advantage It does ... I was gonna say. Do I want to do emanation or do I want to do wild shape? I'm gonna do wild shape. I'm, 'cause I'm gonna be different this time, guys.
We're not gonna do emanation this time. Um- But emanation's so good. I know, but I want to, I don't want to be too close to him. It's scary there. Yeah, there's all the kelp. It's scary. Yeah. There's all this kelp there. Um, and so she is going to transform into a panther, and then- So many cats. Rats. Um- Cats
actually no, giant crab. She's a giant crab. And that's it. Oh, rats. Ah, yeah, now it's Pokemon. [00:44:00] Um, Tim is restrained. Which would make a very good druid anyways. Yeah, true. It is Tybalt's turn. Tybalt is going to, uh, grab the captain. Yep. Uh, and go to the door, and basically put- The door to outside, right? Not the desk.
The door to outside. Yeah. Which is on the opposite side- It would be over here ... of the room of, uh, Tim, and basically toss him out the door. Okay, good. He did the thing he's supposed to do. Uh, then- That's what I told him. I said, "Just kick him out"
Hmm. How far does that go? I don't know. Chris, how, how far does it? How are Tingus and Kathara looking? Not great. Tingus pretty- Not great ... eh, he beat up. You're- Okay ... you're looking like a 13 out of whatever. I'm looking at a nine out of 24. A 13 out of 24. Not looking great. So like, yeah, you [00:45:00] know, not looking great.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Which one is his favorite? Uh, it's gonna more so be a little bit more- Yeah ... utilitarian than that. Yeah. But, um- I'm just gonna say one of us hit, the other one didn't. Uh, Tybalt did not check the score, the box score in this moment. Oh, wait. Oh. Uh- We are of the same people. We're from the same culture I got one.
Listen here, I'm looking worse off than you, okay? I, I do think that is true. I'm done. I think it's empirically true. So you can go ahead and roll three D6, Kathara. Oh my God.[00:46:00]
I'm healing straight, Tim? Yes. Yep, straight Heal This, this one is straight 'cause it's his breath weapon. Um, and then he'll, uh, affix, um... So he has a, we haven't actually gone over this. Tivel has a, a, a Breath weapon? Breath weapon? Healing breath weapon. You don't pay attention to that. He's like a breath weapon.
You don't pay attention to that. That's his breath weapon. I went- So- Healing breath weapon Anyway, so he has a basket hilt sword. He has, like, a basket hilt sword, but it doesn't have an actual handle- Yeah, yeah, that's cool That's cool. Love that for me ... so it clips on to where his lack of hand is. Oh, yeah.
And he draws his sword attachment. Put a pin in it. It's fine. I'm still on breath weapon. You can rerun me at all points. No, you don't need to be. It's fine. No, worry about it. I'm not gonna worry about it. It's fine. It's fine. I'm not gonna ask questions. I was healed. Yeah. Yeah, good things happened. Must be nice.
The- What? The power What did it look like when she was healed? Yeah. Uh- His breath weapon ... [00:47:00] so, so, uh, and it was a, it was a, there was a roar, and then Kithara glowed a little bit- And I went, "Oh" ... and then felt better ... with a giggle. What? And it's fine. That's so cool. I'm writing this down. That's cool. Oh, it's so cool.
Big fan, big fan. And then, Aldern, it's your turn. I'm still taking notes. Wait, hang on. Dren's over here with a notebook going, "Mm." I didn't, I didn't care about it because I was like, "Oh, it's just dragonborn things," and then it's like, wait a minute. That's not a thing. That's cat. He's a dragon. Yeah. No, no, it's a cat.
What if he is a dragon? All right. Um- Did someone write that down? Write that down. Write that down. Let me write that down. Okay. Um, I've got my... That's why there's no dragons. They're d- they're all cat kings. They're all cat kings. Let's see. Well, I mean, to be fair. All right. Um, what- Dragons, dragons ... do I have advantage because he's entangled with my shortbow?
Yes, yes. Of course. Sorry. Uh- He is restrained ... for future attacks, uh, Tim is restrained, and therefore you have advantage. You have advantage. [00:48:00] Nat 20. Jesus. Let's go. Ah, neat. That's the fifth one tonight. Don't jinx it. It's still an early fight. Okay. Um- Now we're fine. We got this ... okay. What could possibly go wrong?
Uh, what's the damage on a shortbow? I hate you. Got to live right now. It's a D6, right? It is a D6. And then I have my hunter's mark- You already have it ... which is another D6. True. Okay. I always forget what I add. Ooh, that's not good. That's actually bad. Um, so two attack plus three damage. Uh, that's a total of eight before...
What do we do? Do we double it? 'Cause it's- No, you get to roll more dice. No, roll, roll dice. Oh, I don't. I roll double dice. Yeah. Yeah. Double the, double the dice. Yeah, it's more, yeah. Eight plus- Double dice, double fun. Yeah. Heck yeah.
14. Math. Excellent. I can do math. Um- That was hard ... and then Saja is going to let out, like, an ear-splitting screech that I will not attempt to mimic. Hmm. And then move. Oh, wait, she [00:49:00] can't move diagonally. I'll do it. I'm kidding. Well, you, you are a panther now. Oh, wait, no, you're a crab. Yeah, I'm a crab. Let me see.
Ah, so I have to move- Wait, we changed to crab? Yeah, but they can talk now in 2024. Yeah. Oh, okay, I did not get that. He can talk. So I gotta move, like- Yeah, you can talk now ... that way and then that way. I think it'd be so funny if Riven could talk to us. Right, Chris. So I gotta move to the side, so I'll do that way.
It annoys Riven. I can't move that way. This is just because you don't want her to talk. No, no, no, just, just be silly. Yes. Like, I can absolutely talk, but I'm just gonna sit here and go... Uh, yeah, we should talk later. Yeah, yeah. One, two- Start making crab noises ... three, four. But they just sound mute, like DJ.
Five, six. Um- Yeah, so she's gonna st- actually, wait. But, uh- She can dash ... how, where is the kelp? Oh, that's a great question. Oh, you're right. You're right. It will be, it's 20 feet- I would have gone around the kelp ... so a 20-foot radius, uh, but he's on the outside of it, so it's- There's a 20-foot cube. Okay ... five, five, five, five.
So. Oh, it's tall ku- kelp. Yeah. Okay. So I'm gonna go around Riven then. Yeah. So she's gonna... They can dash, right? I don't see why she wouldn't be able to dash. [00:50:00] If she's not attacking. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so she'll dash. So one, two, three, four, five. One, two- You don't have to go that wide around me. You can go in front of me
four. I'm already in melee. You're in the kelp. Am I, am I in the kelp? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's the kelp. The kelp is- In line with him is the kelp ... four down, four across from where he's on the corner of it. Like, I'm literally the outside of that. Yeah. He's on the corner of it, the outside corner. Okay, I lost count.
I'm gonna say that was- It's probably fine ... it's close enough. So as she rolls up next to me, "Look." It's close enough. Yeah, no, she's like scr- it, it comes to a literal screeching halt, um, next to you, uh, as that's my bonus action, and I'm gonna stay right comfortably where I am in the corner. Sounds good. I like it over here.
That's my turn. Tingus. Back at the top. Back to the top. All right, well, Tingus is gonna move way, 'cause we don't like being this close.
And then, [00:51:00] uh, we're gonna do a thing you guys haven't seen yet. Gonna Eldritch Blast. Mm-hmm. It's just a flaming basketball coming out of my flaming basketball. Oh. But my basketball's still in my hand. You just go this and it just- Yeah ... continues to go. Yeah. It astral projects itself. Basically. Yes. Oh, wait, I have advantage.
Well, that was already really good. Yeah, but I could crit. I didn't. Damn, that was an 18 and a 19? Yeah. I hate it here. Yeah, right? That's crazy. Uh- Please Oh, right. Uh, 24 to hit, Chris Hits. D10
Uh, five plus my charisma, so eight damage Eight damage It's force damage, if it matters Uh[00:52:00]
It does. Oh yeah, I'm sure it does. Oh, that's it. That's all he has. There you go. All right, that brings us to Pete. Except he'll actually have a real turn. Uh, so there's, uh... Is there an area where Pete can stand? Yeah, if he comes in front of me, essentially. In front of you- Yeah ... or next to you? Next to me. Oh, next to you.
Okay. Next to me. He's not in the kelp. All right, yeah. He's just at the edge of it, like, next to me. He will, uh, rock up. It has been done. And start- Wailing? ... swinging. Let's go. Yeah. Let's go get- Um ... in there. All right. One, two, not good. Is it good enough, though? Better. Uh, the first one, no. The second attack, yes.
Oh, wait. He has advantage. Oh, they... Yes. Yes, he does have advantage. Okay, then, yes. Nice. Crit. Crit. Let's go. [00:53:00] Number six. All right. Don't count. That's bad luck. It is bad luck. It's note-taking. I don't know. We, we, we, we're- Okay, so- Note-taking. One- We're gonna do crit counts now- ... one right here ... on, on, on notes? All right, so that's seven halved to three.
Good shot, yes. You hit? I crit'd. Oh, right. Oh, wait. And then the crit is 11- Note it ... halved to- Wait, we're at six or seven ... five. I don't know. That's not what I'm keeping track of. Six or seven? What? Eight.
I despise you all. Oh. Oh, I forgot. Oh, my bad. That wasn't even a... Uh.
See, it was also me asking about the crit count. Six. Six. Cool. What about seven?
Well, sit down- Sorry, you're on [00:54:00] a- Can we not? Detour. Nah, we're gonna do it. It's just- Yeah, get- We're gonna do it ... another one It's relatable, right? I, I know- For the kids ... it's becoming a clip later. Oh. We're just trying to be relatable, guys. Gotta have the kids love D&D. It's
your turn. Oh, is it my turn? Yeah. Sorry, it is your turn, yeah. I didn't, I didn't realize, like, he was done yet. Just letting you know. Uh, he's, so yeah, he only makes two attacks, you know? Oh. That's only- I can't wait. I can't wait till I can do that. Um, cool, yeah, um, Cathara's gonna stab him with her sword. Nice.
Um, but I have advantage for multiple reasons. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Did
you join the club yet? No, not yet. Um, 13 plus five, 18 to hit. Hits. Cool. D8. I was like, "I'm missing one." You had advantage. You can sneak attack. I know. Mm, I get, I can give myself sneak attack. Yeah, yeah, whatever. [00:55:00] All right. 11, 12, 17 points of, uh, slashing damage. Jesus.
Time to zip tie him. Ooh, and, um, once again, say he gets out of the, the kelp or whatever, because of the Vex property of the rapier, I have advantage on my turn against him next round. I also do because short bow. Um, yeah. Once again, I built this character so that I could just give, keep giving myself advantage.
Sneak attack. Ball is life. Um- Ball is life. Yeah. Um- I mean, I could steady aim again, um, but I don't want to because I have advantage regardless. Next up. So why don't you take, like, the dodge action? Oh, could I? Yeah, you can do that as a bonus action. No, bonus action is to dash, disengage, or hide. Oh. Ooh, can I just duck down?[00:56:00]
You can try and hide. Can I go... Can I just go... Woo. I'm hiding. Can I bonus action hide? You, like, collect some of the kelp and, like, hide behind it. I become a part of Bad Bunny's halftime show. Yeah. I just go... No dancing. No dancing. I just... Yes, uh, bonus action, hide in the kelp. But not, like, in it, just down. You just crouch down.
I just go, I just crouch down. It's the seven- I'm like a- The seven-foot-tall cat just crouches down. Yeah.
I'm very flexible, okay? Well, cats are liquid. Yeah. This, this is true. Yeah. Bonus action, hide. I don't know. Chris, can she do it? Uh, yes. I'm doing it for funsies. Yeah. Why not? Yeah. It's, it, it's funny. Does it mean, like, she's... Yeah, you can try to hide. Yeah. Yeah. Bonus action. I'm gonna use all my- Yeah, why not?
Yeah, why not? There's kelp in [00:57:00] front of me. Yeah. Who knows? Who knows what happened? Who knows what he can see? You could, you could crit on your stealth check. Yeah. That's true. I'm one with the kelp.
They're losing it over here. Ah. Like I said, we're the fun side of the table. Fine. The fact that you have to say it. No, if, if you have to say we're- The fact you have to say it- ... fun, it's definitely not true. It doesn't work. Fun. Okay. Argue in the chat. Who is the funner side? Yeah. I mean- I don't think there's really much of an argument here.
Ugh.
Okay, so it's not- Am I far enough away? All right, this is not going to hit Tingus. Yes. And, uh, Tubal and, and Oldren are clearly too far. Everyone else- Including me? Yes Okay. Is going to have to make- Fireball ... a wisdom saving throw. Okay, now do I have advantage- Oh my God ... because I'm [00:58:00] hiding? Do... On a wisdom save?
I don't know what's happening. Uh, no.
17. I don't know. There you go. God.
That's an eight Druid life. Nice, nice. Ooh. Big, big nu- big numbers. Nice. That's a big number. #Druidlife. I'm not taking it. I, uh- Oh, wait, I need to roll for Peter. Yeah, you do. Um- And the zombies ... can Zaja not, uh, uh- Oh, right, do I- Yeah. Oh, yeah, she makes a wisdom save. Ah, yeah, I guess. Yeah. If she's in there. 17.
Yeah, no, she has to make a wisdom save. That's fine. Zombies are fine. Um- What about Peter? I just don't know- That was Peter. Oh, gotcha ... my proficiency bonus. Someone's got it. Oh, she has good wisdom. I believe it. She's a wise old cat. Hold on. Everyone's gonna do so well, and I'm like, "I'm hiding in the kelp." Eh.
Calculators, [00:59:00] calculating. 19 for Zaja. Yeah, okay. So what I heard was only K'thar is hiding. It's only me, and I'm hiding. Gotcha. I believe I'm hiding. Oh, that didn't even go that well. I'm hiding, duh. You right. My bad. I'm a bunny, duh.
When the cat, when my cat is wiser than you. Listen here. What? I just have a plus one to my wisdom, okay? Oh. My cat is literally wiser than you. Yeah, and? That's fair. Your cat can't talk. Yeah, it what? So- Um, okay. Kithara- My intelligence is better. Anyways ... you- Vivian's wiser than you ... uh- Expected ... see- It's a Druid thing
through the kelp.
Uh-huh ... is a phantasmal image- Oh ... of your worst fears. [01:00:00] Oh. Whatever you are holding is on the ground now. You drop it. And while you are frightened- Okay ... you must take the dash action to move as far away as you can in a safe route, if possible. Okay. Uh-huh
Yep, got it. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool Yeah. Where are you, where are you moving? I, uh- It's on her turn. Oh, on your turn. On, on, yeah. Next turn we'll have that happen. Next turn I have to, I have to... Yeah Um- Away ... if you end your turn in a location where you don't have, where the, uh, image does not have line of sight of you, uh, you can make another wisdom saving throw to end this effect.
Cool. So- Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool, cool What do you see? What's your worst fear? Yeah. No. All right. Mm, fair. You're not even gonna tell the audience? Come on. No, because you all[01:01:00]
would know. Audience. Yeah, but our characters won't. But they're immersion. Kathara. See, it always works. Peer pressure. Peer pressure, peer pressure. It's their immersion. For the audience. Um, so Kathara, um, her eyes kind of grow wide, and what she sees peering back through her is someone who looks almost identical to her, except it's more of, like, that gray tabby-like, um, but they look undead, and it's a face staring through the kelp at her that she hisses as, you guys would see her kind of start backing away.
Like, she was crouched down and she's kind of doing that back crab walk, like visibly hissing- ... and clawing backwards. Ugh. Like a crab? Almost. Almost. Crabs have claws. That's scary. But she's hissing. Like, she has seen something- Yeah ... and is now just, like, panic, like, clawing backwards to go and turn and [01:02:00] get away, but y'all don't know what she saw.
That's cool. Speaking of crab walking. Me. Riven, you are up. All right. Oh, I was like, "It's me?" Okay, I have a question, uh, 'cause I'm not quite sure. It does say on entangle that when I cast it, it doesn't affect me, but can I walk through it or is it still difficult terrain for me? If it doesn't affect you. It doesn't affect you.
Okay. So it doesn't affect me, right? So, yeah, you're good. Okay. Cool, cool, cool, cool, cool. You can, you can, you can get up in it. Okay, cool, cool. That's how we're gonna ru- rule it right now. Okay. If it's on Vax, that's fine. So then she's gonna crab walk behind him and claw. Melee attack roll. Yeah, you got there.
Call him in the back for mac and cheese Also, like, crabs can definitely- Okay ... walk through kelp. I don't know if trogs- I know, but that's, I, I don't know, but I just wanted to make sure before I said something. Okay. But the theme, eh? It was Moe the Kelp. Yeah. Right. Not great. You have advantage. Oh. True. Not better.
[01:03:00] Mm. Uh, 12. To hit? Yeah. Unfortunately. Yeah. I kind of assumed as much. It does not hit. And then she's going to not sing. Um, that's it. That's it. The crab song. Uh- She can't cast another one after that one ... all righty. Yeah. So on the start of Tybalt's turn. Right. A three. Darn. Yeah, that would've been helpful. It would've been helpful That's real nice Better
knives What do you mean page does not exist? What... It's fine. Everything's fine. Error 404. Yeah, l- l- literally. The AOL- Ah ... startup sound. We- we're doing it everybody. We're fine. Oh. Uh,[01:04:00]
no, maybe that is actually what would be better. I don't know. It's your character, Chris. You get to make those choices. Ah, this page was found, therefore we're casting it. Ah, good. Ugh.
Uh, Tybalt's still working, looking pretty rough, right? Or, sorry, Tyngus is still looking pretty rough. Yeah. Oh, yeah. All right. Um- I'm just seeing dead people. Ooh
That's always a fun time. Yeah. Yeah. You regain seven hit points. Nice. Nice. You're up to 20, like me. Uh, he will advance a little closer, but, you know, just kinda keep him far away. Uh, Aldrin, what would you like to do? I don't know if this is gonna work. There's only one way to find out. Yeah. [01:05:00] Ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba.
If you just believe. Okay, well first I'm just gonna try to shoot. Then you can do it. We're gonna start with that. I believe. Roll correctly. Ooh, that's not that ba- uh, it's above a 20. I don't know what it is, but it's above a 20. Uh- Hits ... beautiful. All right. That's 26.
Not great. Uh, that's four plus three is seven. Uh seven piercing damage, including Hunter's Mark. Hey, every, every bit counts. Yeah, including Hunter's Mark. Oh, wait. Um-
Can you separate those two damages actually? Uh, sure. Um, so they were both twos. So two is hunter's mark. Okay. [01:06:00] And then five is the regular damage. Okay, perfect I don't know what it was last time Uh 'Cause I wasn't rolling them separately last time, so I'm not sure how to... Good point. Yeah. We will not worry about it.
Okay. Appreciate it. Yes. Anything else? Okay. So my next question- Mm-hmm ... is, um, can companions do held actions or just us?
Because as a bonus action I can command her to take an action in her stat block. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. So it isn't a... You can't hold a bonus action. Mm-hmm. We know that. But if my bonus action is to command her to take an action, can she hold that action? Would she know to hold it? Is my question. What is your command?
Uh, to attack, um, Tim when she is able to do [01:07:00] so, 'cause right now she can't. Oh, right now- So like when there's an opening. Oh, wait, right now she can't? She can she not- Well, because of the kelp. Oh, it would just be difficult terrain, right? Do you know? Yeah, yeah. No. Don't, doesn't she get entangled if she goes in it?
Or is that a no? Let me check. That's why I was asking. Please and thank you. 'Cause I'm ban the spell caster. It's gonna rip. 'Cause if it's just difficult terrain, then she'll just attack. It says in the area, uh, the ground turns to difficult terrain, disappears when it ends. The restrained creature... Yeah, it just says difficult terrain.
Oh, beautiful. In that case she just- Yeah, 'cause it wasn't restrained during the spell cast ... continues running. Nevermind. Uh, so she finishes, uh, running at him, um, and is gonna catch a dart for his legs
Oh, that's not great. That's... Do, do, do, do, do. Easter eggs. Also for future, it can hold an action. Oh, beautiful. Thank you. That's really good to know. [01:08:00] That is good to know
I can't read. Do you need help? Yeah, help. What am I adding to this? Uh, wizardry spell, your spell attack modifier. Oh. Yeah. Sounds right? I, I thought she added more to it. Oh, whatever, it's fine. Okay. Yeah. Um, I don't think that's gonna hit. Uh, that's gonna be... And that would be my spell attack modifier, right?
Mm-hmm. Okay, uh, 16. Yeah, your wisdom, yeah. Uh, was that after advantage, or...? Yes, that is after advantage. Oh, wait. Uh, no, 16's fine. 16 hits. Oh, okay, cool. Okay. So thank you. It's kind of getting late. Mm-hmm. I hear you're a nerd. Yeah. I'm like base level. Stronger than you. So that's gonna be- Ooh. I went to college.
So did he. I said stronger, not smarter. I went to college. That's gonna be, um- Exactly. Hang on, guys. Sorry, I'm really struggling with basic math tonight. That's okay. What are you, what are you adding? It's six plus three is [01:09:00] nine. Okay. Nine. So it's nine, and it's going to be slashing damage. Understood. Yeah, as she's going to...
Actually, piercing damage. She's just gonna bite into his calves. Ow. Yes. That is my turn. Good cat. Excellent. He is a good cat. Yeah. Dingus. I'm gonna shoot him again. Okay. Shoot your shot. Yep Oh. Uh That might still hit It, it hits. Uh, 18 to hit. Hits. Mm-hmm. Yeah, it just wasn't a crit. You get, you get all... Oh, max damage though.
Uh, uh, almost max damage. Uh, 11. 11? Yep
So, oh, and I'm gonna, I'm gonna move to, like, here, [01:10:00] I think Hide behind a table? Yeah. My hand's also in the kelp. Okay. Yep. What? Nothing. Yeah, that's it. All right. I don't, I don't know what bonus actions are, so... Um, that will bring us to... That's unfortunate. Okay.
Peter and the zombies. Hm? Peter and the zombies. They're ice cubes. Oh, okay. Yeah, they got- That's frozen ... they got fridge-ly froze. Everybody's- They're popsicles. All of them are, are, are frozen? Is, is Peter frozen? Uh, no. Peter's dropped. Peter's been saved. Okay. Zopsicles? I was trying to think of something. Ew.
Zombie popsicles. We're gonna workshop it. Yeah, we're gonna- No, we'll get there. During the break we'll figure it out. Yeah, we'll figure it out. Just join us later. Zombie popsicle pun. Put your favorite zombie popsicle pun in the chat. In the comments. Um- What mark did I hit? I did. Cool. Kathara. Yeah, yeah. Uh, yeah, all I can do is dash, um, and she's gonna, like- [01:11:00] Oh, true, I forgot about that actually
claw and backward, I think. Where, where do you wanna go? Um, so I have the dash, that's gonna be 60 feet of movement. She's gonna come straight back up to the wall and is gonna, like, almost, like, she backs up into the wall and, like, turns away. And she's, she's, um, going, "No, no, you're not here. Foolish magic.
Dark magic." And she's, like, just panicked as she is just going backwards, clawing backwards, and, like, she just, like, turns, like, to the wall. Oh. Good as tri- mm. And that's all I can do. Um, is, you say at the end of their turn, or would it be my next turn? It would be, uh, the end of your- During the save ... well, so you're, yeah- 'Cause I, like, I'm, I'm, I'm- You're, you are no longer-
backwards and I'm turning ... yeah, you're breaking sight, so you may, um- I'm breaking sight ... you may roll. Another wisdom save? Wisdom save. You can do it. You just gotta bo-lieve.
Uh, 16 [01:12:00] Oh?
No. I, I'm ready for it I'm still scared. Uh, nope, meets it, beats it. Nice. Woo. But she's, like, still there. Like, she's not looking at it, but she is still like, "No, no." It's like, and like you can hear there's a quiver in her voice- Oh ... um, that she is truly terrified of something that she saw. It's my turn. Okay.
Ooh
So who's even close by to Tim at this point? Just Peter and- Me, Peter, Saja, and Riven Riven. Oh, that's right. Interesting. Giant crab. He's still restrained, right? Yes. Yeah. What? Uh, yes. Yeah, 'cause it's concentration- Yeah ... and you haven't been hit, too. Interesting. Mm-hmm. Yeah. But what direction... He would've, he was facing that way.
Mm-hmm. He's facing- Who's this way? That's- And I missed him, so he didn't even- Tim. Tim is right in front of him- Yeah, no, Peter is- ... and then Saja is the closest next to him ... Peter's that way. To be- Saja, it would be facing- Yeah, so it's like if it- But Tim is facing [01:13:00] that way.
Tim is- Peter is, is right in front of Tim. If they're... Yeah. Right at each other. Yeah, but that doesn't work, so it has to be Saja. Sa- but Saja is, like, right at- To his side ... she literally has her teeth in his leg. True. Okay. Like, so this comes down bad, Kenny. All right. But... Is restrained. Mm-hmm. Yes.
You know, you just lose a lot of them, you know? 19 and one. What, yeah, but do you have advantage or disadvantage? Disadvantage. That's a great question. Advantage. Restrained- Restrained ... from the kelp. I love you. Saved by the kelp. I'm not doing much besides suffer that. Wasn't that a late '90s sitcom? Yeah, I think so.
Uh, yes. So those close by will be able to [01:14:00] see a necromantic energy, uh, from Tim's hands as he tries to reach down to Saja and cannot quite do it, restrained by these kelp plants. Some extra sloppy wet ones come up. She sort of like just like... Yeah. Yeah. She doesn't like- They just slip in. Yeah, just like...
Yeah, just... She does the thing that, like, pit bulls do where, like, they like, they- Lock jaw? Yeah, where, like, her jaws lock- Yeah, mm-hmm ... but she, like, moves out of the way- Yeah, mm-hmm ... and still hangs on. His arm, like, goes to move, it gets slapped like a silly band, but a really gross wet one. Yeah. Yeah. And he goes, "Ugh."
Like slime. Yeah. Ugh. Ugh. Necromancer, just my brother. Can't handle that. Can't handle that. Uh, what's that? Ugh. Riven. Yes, um. It is your turn. It is my turn. As I get grappled by my own outfit. Hold on. My own kelp. Hold on. Uh- My own kelp ... the claw. She's gonna- The claw ... snap him. Ah. Please [01:15:00] do that every time I- Patting the foul
show up. Oh, we're, we're really showing our age over here, aren't
we? The claw. Okay. Oh, wait, still advantage, right? Yeah. Yes. Yep.
Nice Get in there. Plus three, so eight, 19. To hit? Yep. Excellent, hits. So it's not 21. Hell yeah, brother. Oh, I'm so sorry. Dang it, only three. You need to regroup. Hell yeah. What are you talking about? It's
great. Oh. Three, three damage. It's in the air tonight. That's okay, he was at one health. Oh, yay. We win. You- Oh, yes ... just crab claw crack- His neck ... into- Oh, with that crusher claw ... neck? Okay. Yeah, neck. Like he- Neck ... he grabs his neck, he's like... Yeah, with the big crusher claw, not the- Yeah ... not the tiny scissory claw.
The big, the big one. Yeah. And you feel his body just kind of slump [01:16:00] in your claw, completely lifeless. You- You shake it. You go, "Okay." Trophy. You ragdoll. I did it. I did it.
This man's being thrown around like a damn doll. She's so ragdolled.
Uh, so you are ragdolling Tim- ... over a little bit of time as the zombies begin to thaw. The kelp begins to recede. I go over to Kathar and pick her up, say, "Hey, you, you good?" No. Well, it's over. Tim's dead. I know. Uh-huh. Walks slowly toward Kathar. Do, do you need a moment? Uh-huh. Do you want to, do you wanna go outside?
Do you wanna talk about it? I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna stay here. It's fine. It's fine, Tim. You sure? Yep, yep. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I start dribbling my ball. And she's just like, like at the, like at the wall just- Oh, okay [01:17:00] I am not equipped- I'm gonna- ... to handle this ... put one hand on her. Is she still hurt? Uh, I'm like four down from hit points.
Doesn't matter. That's not the point of why he's doing it. Um, he's going to- But she's like, you c- if you, if you touch her, like she is, like y- you feel her like tense, and she's like shaking He, he waits and has his hand like hovering- Like you can see- ... over her shoulder for a second, and then touches her shoulder again.
She's like... And he casts Cure Wounds. And there's like a, it's not so much about restoring her health, is that there's sort of like a, a warm- Mm ... calming effect. Yeah. Um, and I'll cast it at first level. Okay. Um, you do that, and like she, she still kind of has that, that very tense, it's kind of slows down. The shaking isn't as pronounced.
Six, so you're good. Yeah. Um, but like she, she, she doesn't realize like who it is. Mm-hmm. Um, she's like, "Just, [01:18:00] I'll regain my composure in a moment. Um, just make sure everyone else is okay." He doesn't leave. He just sits there and he doesn't say anything.
Meanwhile, Riven is looting his corpse. Like But, but with giant crab claws? Like, Riv- no, like, no, 'cause only one of them's the giant. The other one is a little one. Yeah, the... Yeah, that's how crabs work. Oh, sure. They have the big crusher claw and the, yeah, the tiny- Yeah, and so she's gonna, like, see- Oh, so I forgot about the small pickpocketing claw.
Yeah. The pickpocket claw. Yeah, I got it. Destruction. She's just gonna see, like, if there's, like, symbols or, like, things like, like things coming off of, like, like necklaces or whatever. Like, anything that would look weird or, like, looks valuable. Oh, I guess Tin- while that's also going on- Yeah ... Tingus is gonna go through the zombie crowd with his flaming basketball and just, like- Warm 'em up
yeah, just, just doing like, uh, uh, dexterity drills and whatnot. That way they're just around fire to help thaw them out. Nice. Okay. You thaw them out slightly faster. Do [01:19:00] I find anything? Um, nothing really of value, but you do find, um, his keyring. Snatch. Yoinks. Yoink. I still have him in my, like, big claw, and then like- Oh
the other one has, like, the little one. It's like, "I got his keys. I got his keys." Going for a joy ride. What do you want to do with them? Uh, we gotta find out where they go. Probably to the room that I already unlocked. Except you unlocked it in the wrong way, which is probably why you got shocked. But it's open, so it doesn't matter anymore.
Yeah, I don't know. You want to go find out. There's no way there's more than one. There could be a diary. Anyway, she tosses him at you Oh, I'll catch him. Okay. Um, and then she takes Tim and goes to Peter, and is like, "Do you want him or can I just throw him over the cliff?" You're just throwing the... Oh, the body.
Oh, so, yeah, the body. The body, yeah. Uh, you want him? It's... [01:20:00] No. No. I'm going to throw him over the cliff. We don't- I was just wanting to know if you wanted to, like- We don't want him ... desecrate his corpse. I don't know what you guys are into. For fun? I don't know. Okay. No, that's all right. It could be cathartic.
No, I think that's okay. I'm going to start heading upstairs. Maybe cathartically throw him through the window. That could be- Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, and she does it. Okay. Uh- I'm going to start heading upstairs with our keys ... Tim, Tim is, is cascading down through the broken window. Um, the party is recollecting themselves.
Tybalt is collecting the captain from outside, and we will rejoin the party, uh, just after our break. Come back. See you in a little bit. I feel like I'm doing like a good one sometimes. Okay, so is this one good? Hello and welcome back, everyone. No, you're opening Magic packs. What? If you enjoy what we're doing, go ahead and click like.
If you haven't subscribed, please do so. And if you're not getting notifications, how are you supposed to know when we go [01:21:00] live? Nice, nice, nice, nice, nice. I would absolutely But thank you all for staying tuned. Solid. Thanks guys, for helping me, uh, crack some packs, 'cause that's how I deal with trauma. Um, as a character.
It's fine. Yeah, as a character. Come to the Club Game Center and buy your Magic. In Minecraft. You know? So yeah, um- So- It's great ... we rejoin the party now Timless, uh- As the- That got me ... zombies, uh, are, uh, beginning to go back to their day jobs, I guess, in a way. Uh, but much happier this time. We love that for them.
Yeah. Honestly. You are all together in this foi- uh, entry room. What would you all like to do? I want to go upstairs. I'd like to continue [01:22:00] crying. Yeah. I was about to say, I, I, I think as soon as she throws the body out of the window, she's going to start scuttling upstairs, and she is still in crab form. I'm remaining in crab form.
Oh, you are staying in crab. Still in crab form. Smart. The, the doors aren't quite designed. You can go sideways. She's tiny. She'll sideways it. Yeah, maybe that fits
Yeah. You know, as crabs want to walk anyways. I'm gonna remain with Kethara. Yeah, 'cause I think, I think she'll- Kethara will, like, take her, her time to kind of, like, try to regain herself, and, like, she'll probably turn around, but she probably is gonna go sit down. Like, she's visibly, like... She'll turn around, see you, and go, "Um, thank you.
Uh, it's fine. Uh, you can, uh, continue helping out everyone else. Um, I'll literally, it'll just be a moment. I just need to sit and catch my breath. You know, huh, the kelp kind of took it out of me. Hm, who knew?" [01:23:00] When she's trying her best to laugh her face off to you He... Are, are you gonna be walking away? Yeah, she's gonna like kind of like- Great, David
move past you and just go, "It's fine. Thanks." He's gonna find sort of like a halfway point between where they just were and wherever you sit. Yeah, she'll go to kind of like the center- Yeah ... whatever, where the seats and stuff are. And he will Sit, um, on the floor. Um, look Saja over. Um, and he's gonna start...
Is she, how quickly is she breathing? Um, I would say kind of on the walk over she was, she was kind of still in that, I wouldn't necessarily say it's hyperventilating. Um, but it's more kind of that like, like quick- Mm-hmm ... but trying to do those s- trying to get to that slow, deep breath. She's somewhere in the middle.
He's going to like [01:24:00] noticeably his breathing is, is louder, and it's very slow. Like, like you know when someone is clearly doing like deep breaths, but like the- Mm-hmm ... like not the hard exhale. Yeah. Um, but he's attempting to do how people will subconsciously match the breathing pattern of someone that's around them.
Ah. Mm-hmm. Okay. But she'll sit there and just kind of- Mm-hmm ... quiet, still. Probably the most still she's probably been in a very long time. Um, and just sit there. And you can tell by the way she's sitting and kind of like looking and not really looking at anybody, that her mind is racing. Mm-hmm. She's lost in another time, in another place, in another situation You all don't exist in this moment.
So yeah, what are you guys up to? We're going through the door. Was the door open, [01:25:00] like, Chris? Yeah, 'cause- Um The warded door? Yeah. The door that's warded. Not warded anymore. Yeah. Oh, yes, the door that's warded. The ward that's protecting the door. So is it gonna... The... Is it gonna shock us again? I don't know.
Hopefully it shouldn't. Why not? Because key. Is there still magic on it? I don't know. We'll find out. Okay. There's only one way to find out. There's only one way to find out. There's hopefully only one- Kris, I'm gonna, I'm gonna find a key that matches the door, I assume, and try and... I did pick the lock, so it is unlocked.
Yeah, but that doesn't mean that that dispels the magic. The key. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, you do find a key. That's true. Uh, the key does have, um, a stone in its... Yeah, towards, um, where it is attached to the ring. Yep. Okay. That does glow as it is inserted and turned, and the door opens. See? [01:26:00] The key. The key is the key.
Something like that. What's inside? A whole bunch of stuff, and we will- ... fast-forward just a little bit. 'Cause you guys look for a very fancy book. Uh, it is... Right. It is very much a laboratory- Okay ... of sorts. There are lots of ingredients, uh, in various bottles and jars. Um, there are many tomes. Some you could kind of call them more academic than spell books.
Sure. Mm-hmm. However, you do find, uh, what appears to be an actual spell book. You also do, uh, uh, find a, um, a safe. There's only one key on the keyring or is it multiple keys? No, multiple. No, there's multiple. Maybe we should see if the [01:27:00] safe, one of the keys? Yeah, yeah. Can I, can I try? Uh, as a crab? Yeah Okay.
I've seen stranger things. It's fine. She's gonna try to open it with the key. So have I. Yes. You're able to, you're able to go through the various- I just think it's really funny that she's trying to do everything with the key ... keys. You, you have to try several of them, but you get through some keys until one works.
Uh, inside the safe, um, are quite a few gems. Ooh. Um, but also- Wait, can I sleight of hand take one of the gems before he sees inside of it? I, I will just let you take it. With the crab claws? Oh yeah, that's fair. Well, then she's gonna poof out of her stuff. She's like, brring. In the middle of the poof, there's a- This is the moment.
I'll just let you take it. Yeah, but she doesn't know that, 'cause she got yelled at last time. Well, that's 'cause everybody else was there. So she's gonna grab it and just gonna pocket them, and then just gonna hand them and just like, "Don't tell on me," and hand it to you. Well, [01:28:00] yeah. Don't tell on me. Uh-oh.
Don't tell on me. You also find, uh, stacks of gold, uh, likely some remnants of the payments being received from- Okay. Coin or ingots? Uh, it is coin. Thank you. Yeah. Okay. Well... Um, so just gems and coins. Like, I don't even- So you just- Yes, uh- ... coins, right? Yes. Yeah. We're just found some coins. You found several hundred gold coins.
Several hundred gold... Wow, several hundred gold coins. I don't think I've ever seen this much money. That's not true. We saw those safes. I've s- yeah. We saw more than a few. Those things. Okay. So they don't need to know about the gems. Know about what? And she, like, winks very exaggeratorily. Like- I'm sorry, there were gems?
Hey. Yeah, there we go. Um, so, so mostly laboratory, some books, a spell book. Should we take the spell book so no one else- [01:29:00] Absolutely we should take the spell book. Oh, okay. So she's gonna take- All right, take the spell book ... she's gonna take the spell book. Yeah. And then there is also a pair of goggles on a statue.
I'm gonna try them on. Okay. Uh, they have wings on them. I'm gonna try them on. Uh, you do, um, do you normally have darkvision? No. Ah. Oh, they're goggles of night. You have darkvision now. Ooh. I have sunglasses. Oh, they look so great with sunglasses at night. They are, they, they are dark, yeah, they are dark lenses.
They look so cool on you. You can wear your sunglasses at night, my guy. Wait, can you see anything in them? Uh, give me a second. Okay. Hold for effect. Hold for, hold for physical prop. Hey. Oh. Oh, yes, I can. Wow. Damn. Those look so cool. I wish I found those first. Ugh. I feel left out. Snookers. Yeah, that's fair.
It's okay, I s- I took, I w- I know these are [01:30:00] your guys' but... I felt left out. There were three gems and I'll g- only gave you one, so I feel like it was pretty even. Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, worth. You know, fair trade. Fair trade. Uh, point of order, there were eight gems. Okay. There w- So that's fine ... so I took five and you took three?
I gave you one less. Yeah. Yeah. I was, you could have been like 7-1, got it. There were three gems, I gave him one. Just have seven. It would've been fine either way. Okay, cool. Um, okay. You don't know about it. I know, I'm just taking notes. Oh, are you? Is there anything like- About things you don't know about?
Yeah. Always. Always. Is there... So like the bunch of necromancy like stuff, is there any like... Do we see anything that's like, I don't know, like he's trying to hide something besides what's behind the door, like within the thing or no? I assume no. But everything's just pretty. Well, anything- I mean, there was also a safe.
Yeah. That did have stuff in it. Right, true, true, true. That's true. Are there any secret compartments in the safe? Oh. Would you like to try and find one? Yeah. Damn right I would. Okay. I would like to find a secret button thing. Yeah, let me, let me roll for secrets. [01:31:00] Uh, investigation? Yes. Okay. Let me... Please work.
Investigation. What do I have? Oh, nice, a plus zero. Love that
The 16th
Yes. Ooh. What? Wait, what is it? I think I found something. It's a button or like a, a- Come- A panel, uh, falls back. Ooh, nice. I take it out. Uh, and behind is a book. I found another book. Ooh. I'm gonna take the book. Okay. Can I, can I- What does it look like? Yeah, I was about to say, can, what is, what is the book? Uh, leather bound, soft leather, uh, string wrapped around it, like cross- Any-
crosshatch ... any sort of markings on it to give any sort of indication of what it might be? Uh, it's [01:32:00] monogrammed. Okay. Oh, it's a journal. With what? Uh, T.D. Okay. Oh, that must be his diary. Kathara said- Oh, we did find a diary ... that people hoard things 'cause of their diaries. Oh my God, yes. Perfect. Wait, wait, let's see if there's- I'm gonna open it
something silly in it. I absolutely wanted to see Tim's deepest, darkest secrets. Uh, it is his diary. There are secrets. That's cool. Told you I was right. Nice. Somewhere downstairs, Kathara is vindicated. She's having a panic attack. She's like... Ah. All right. I think we've found what we need to find up here.
Okay, so we're only telling them we found gold. So that's all we did find is gold, and these- And two books ... or, yeah, I can't- And some glasses ... I can't hide these, but they're mine now. Right, right, right. Two, two books, some gold- Yeah ... and glasses. Yeah. All right. So she's gonna grab the gold and like- Yeah ... in her skirts.
Like, literally the, the- Yeah ... rags of her skirts [01:33:00] that are like the blue- She's watching you ... like, like strips of fabric, it's just gonna be filled with all the gold. She's like, "Good thing I'm not a crab anymore." I love how- I can't hold that in ... that is like your... Hey, we found some gold. We found stuff. Hey, Kathara, here, have this journal that we found.
And she just like, "Thank you." She's gonna walk up to the captain- How, how long were they, were they up there though? That's a great question. That is a great question. It's a great question. How long do you think you were up there? I would say, like, to find all that stuff, probably be like- It, it was a decent amount of time
15. Yeah. 12 minutes. Uh, like, there could have been many... Uh, also, yes, uh, uh, Tibble and the captain were also rejoining- Okay ... the two of you. Yeah. Um- Like, 12, 15 minutes. Okay. So. They make quick work of it, I guess. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, they toss the room. Yeah. Yeah. Honestly- They're not graceful ... that checks out for both of us.
Yeah. With zero regard. Yeah. Yeah. Tim's dead, I don't care. Yeah. Broke so many vials. Yeah. Honestly, I just [01:34:00] started s- pouring things out. No, I wouldn't have done that. I would've just, like... I w- basically would've been skimming, be like, "What's important here? Anything? Nothing? All right, cool, great." Well, while you were, like, looking at the books, I probably was just, like, dumping things that were, like, in vials.
And, and you know what? I definitely would've been like, "Ed's a lost cause to say don't do this." "So we're not going to." Could, while they were doing that, could Uldren have tried to talk to Kithara? Yes. While they're doing it. Yeah. Okay, great. Yeah. You're so excited. Um, so he's gonna, um... He'll walk over, um, and sit near her.
And she's still, like, spacing, right? Yeah, she's just, like... Like, if someone was sitting just kind of like this, like... Yeah, she's m- she's, like, middle, middle third at all the, all distances. Yeah. Yeah. If someone could thousand yard stare- Yeah ... through the ground, that's what she's doing. Kithara. I'm fine. Five things you can see [01:35:00] Um, my feet, my legs, the ground A weird splotch on the ground, my hands Four things that you're touching Four of my fingers That's one There's four of them Kithara.
Three more
My leather pants
My sword
Does it have to be four? Yes
So the cou- and her hand will move. The couch cushions
Three things you smell. And at this point, Saja pads over[01:36:00]
Musty tower
Sea salt
Whetstone
Sure you hear your voice and Saja walking over Like with those. Yep. Yeah. Does she look more- Grounded? Like, probably, uh, probably not as, like, her, her, her breath is not going in as much. It's almost like she's not forcing it at this point. And she's not tense in the sense that she's, she's afraid anymore, but she's tense in the sense of, "I told you to leave me alone."
Yeah. It's a different form of tension now.
He [01:37:00] sighs I told you I was all right. I don't need to be babysat. Just a minor inconvenience This isn't babysitting Mm. Feels like it Is that what you do for us? You babysit us when you take care of the crew? No. Sometimes that's how it feels like with the crew. Fair. You all, hmm More like supervised watching.
She'll now kind of like look up and look at you. Yeah
So, it's the captain, all right. Yeah, and a- at this point he'll turn and look to... Where, what's Tybalt doing? Uh, so at this point, um, [01:38:00] not only reading the room, but having things to do, um, Tybalt, the captain, and, uh, Peter have had a quick conversation to the side- Mm ... uh, and have gotten acquainted. Um, Tybalt will kind of give you a nod.
Um, and they will, uh, come on over. Um, the captain will... I met Peter, Captain Peter. Uh, you've all had a day. Uh, Kethara immediately stands up, goes, "Great, uh, he has unders- we understand his plight. Um, and we a- are absolutely fine with him. Um, I'm as- assuming he went and told you everything that is going on, uh, what they would like to do, and then, well, and we have to figure out the whole rum thing, but also his friends here who don't really have, um, the same type of intelligence."
Yes. We are, we [01:39:00] are working it out. Mm-hmm. We'll be loading up what we can, uh, today. Wonderful. Uh, it's getting slightly later, so we'll probably, uh, head out tomorrow morning. Mm. Um- Then we'll start sailing. They will be, uh, following along, and we'll have our party. Wonderful. I'm glad everything is kind of, well, shaped up to be an interesting day, but, uh, things are back on track.
And I think at this point we come down from downstairs. Yes. We're like, "Hey, guys, we found some stuff behind, behind Tim's door." Oh, his room. Yes, we did. It w- well, it was more of like a laboratory kind of- What is on your face? Just my face. I always have this- We found gold. We did find a bunch of gold. Oh. And some books.
I also- Oh, books? I also found Tim's diary. What... Uh, okay, so his diary- And, and also his notebook ... you said books. Ah, I would love to s- Yes, the important one. Yes, we made sure to get the important one. I would love to see those. [01:40:00] Yeah, here, have 'em. Thank you. And- She takes both the books. And I will load the gold onto the ship with the rest of the gold Yeah.
Captain, we got gold. Yeah. This is excellent. But I will say, I think we might need to have some of the gold stay here for, like, the system of the bartering with the rum and keeping this under our umbrella, right? I don't know, change. Do they need that? Uh, that's a great question. They may need to buy supplies.
Right, exactly. Mm-hmm. So, hey, Peter. Sure. Yes? Sorry. Um, so I'm gonna give you some of this gold to go buy more supplies for rum. You guys can, like... You know, know the recipe since you guys are the ones making it, right? Yeah, we've got it. Okay, so- I mean, to be fair, it's not particularly difficult, but- Yeah, you know.
Well, I don't call your job easy. I didn't say it was easy. Eh. [01:41:00] Wasn't that the assumption when you said the whole- No. The way to have correct and good-tasting rum is a process and quite a skill. Correct. Mm-hmm. Yeah, rum is really good, too. Yeah. And when it's bad, it's like bleh. Yeah. And it's like gross. Right, but the general i- the general concepts behind it are not difficult.
What, what you craft can be difficult. Yeah, you're right. How is that supposed to be insulting at all? I don't know. So anyways, Peter, um, if we give you some of this gold to go get, like, supplies and stuff, like, your people can, like, set up and then you guys can have, like, a good exchange? Yep, we'll keep the operation running.
Okay. So here you go. She gives, like, half of the gold. Perfect. Yeah. Uh, they will kind of keep it and store it and- Mm-hmm ... so they can- Plus they're gonna need some gold for their travel ... yep, get future- Future delivery ... yeah. All right. Now we have an undead kind of army. Not really army, but guys. We have a manned ship of undead.
Manned ship. Do, is there any rum? Yes. Can we [01:42:00] have that? Mm-hmm. We're gonna be- Yeah ... loading it up today. Sounds good. On both of our ships. We'll be following you shortly. What does it taste like? Perfect. Does it taste good? Is it pretty good rum? Would you like some? Yeah. Uh, he'll be able to produce a bottle for you.
She's just start... And then Katara walk over and immediately grab it from you, and then start drinking. She, like, yoinks it from you and just, like- If you have all the... All right
Can you, see, so for, uh... Okay. No, she literally- Yeah, like she watches you down it ... drinks it. Yeah, she's like, "Cool." She's, "All right, cool. Thanks for the offer. Appreciate it." I guess it's been a day. Uh, the zombie, uh, employees, uh, will begin loading up- Employees ... casks. Uh- Well, that's exactly what they are now.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, they have a co-op. Mm-hmm. Um, yeah, begin loading up [01:43:00] both of your, both your ship and the zombie, uh, um, I'm losing the word. Schooner? Yes. I believe that's what you described it as last time, yes. Dinghy? A dinghy. It's probably more of a schooner- No, no, no, it's more of a dinghy ... than anything.
Their, their ship. So they have re-re-created- Oh, right, right, right, right. I forgot about their- A bit smaller ... smaller ship from about two and a half shipwrecks. Yes. Right, right, right. It's about a schooner. Yeah. Yeah. Oh my gosh, and it, like, looks like mod podge 'cause, like, it's a zombie, and, like, that's cool.
Oh, okay, cool. I like that. It's very their est- aesthetic. Yeah. It's aesthetic. Yeah, it, it is. The brand. It is giving. Asian patio. Yeah, brand, always giving brand. It's giving undead pirate. Always giving. That's all. We're all about the branding. Um, they will be loading up both ships as, uh, you lose daylight. Uh, but you are all set to embark the next morning.
Heck yeah. Oh, it means we get a long rest. Yes. Um, R- [01:44:00] Riven's gonna go over to, um, Aldrin, and, "Hey, that one was fun though." Come on, that one was fun. We got to kill a dude who's kind of a jerk. Well, I mean, I got to kill him, and I got to kill the big guy, so I guess it was fun for me. But he's not alive anymore, and you didn't like him And you- He sort of raises his eyebrows at you
and you didn't get hurt that much? Raven, I believe that you and I still have different definitions of the word Well, then what do you think is fun then? Not finding out that someone has resurrected a large mass of people against their will and conscripted them into forced labor But that's not on you.
No. That's on them, and then we just correct it, which we did. It's not, [01:45:00] but it's still not something that I take pleasure in learning, nor is this And he, he, he looks back at, um... Well, actually, where are the zone- where are we at this point? On the ship, right? Like physically, are we on the ship? Yeah, you guys are on the ship.
Uh- Mary is outside ... we're, honestly, wherever you would like. Okay. Uh, if you would like to have this conversat- Yeah ... it is a, a open opportunity basically from dusk through the night, next morning- Dusk ... wherever you would like. I, like, imagine, like, us, like, watching the o- the island kind of- Recede ... recede. Yeah.
Okay. Yeah. He, he noticeably, he's not relaxed. He's still rigid. His, his posture is tight. Um-
This is not something that I took any degree of pleasure in
Okay. I guess I owe you bread then. I see some bread. Where am I gonna get bread? Do you think the ca- the chef has bread?[01:46:00]
Or do you want, like, warm fresh bread when we get to, like, a better place? Didn't...
I lost a bet. When you lose a bet, you have to give up what you bet on, and you wanted bread for some reason, so- Right. Yes, we had, we had made a bet. Um
Sure, fresh, fresh bread Okay I'm sorry. I feel like I upset you somehow
No, not, nothing that you have done
Good, 'cause I didn't know how to apologize about that.
But until I get your bread, and then she's gonna, [01:47:00] like, ruffle into her, like, little satchel, and she's gonna take, like, the smallest gem that she found and- She's like, "Don't tell Kit Kat, but this is, like, collateral until I get you your bread."
Uh, Riven hands you, like, a sapphire worth 25 gold.
Where, where did you- And it's blue, so please don't lose it. Where did you... I found it on the beach. Insight check. Okay. Deception. Ooh, that's good. Damn, I didn't do it very good. Um... Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba. You beat me. It doesn't matter. But I wanna know by how much I beat you. I, it got rolled- How much? ... a six, and I got- 21
plus four, so. 21. Ooh, now plus 10. Three.
10, so. Yeah.
Unless you call her out on it, she's not [01:48:00] gonna tell you she's lying
Riven, I would suggest that you work on your lying I'm pretty good at lying. It's you I have a problem lying to
You should share these with the rest of the crew I did Insight check. Oh, I knew. God, I hope you roll higher. No. 19 plus stuff. I rolled even higher this time. I got a, like a solid eight. It's almost true. It's three-quarters true. It- Yeah. It's like a half truth. Yeah. I did share it. I guess two-thirds not including Rivon.
Rivon, what did I just say about working on your lying? Again, I have a hard time with you because I like you, and it hurts my feelings to lie to you
And she's like not looking you in the eye [01:49:00] anymore, which she normally would like uncomfortably stare at people s- in, in the eye
I, give me an insight check. Okay. I'll make an active deception roll. Which I'm not good at. Again, terrible. Good thing I didn't roll these during combat. 14. Ooh, actually, do I have anything to add to that? I have a minus one. Ooh, so- Um, and I rolled a 12 total. Um, so when you say that you like him and that it hurts, um, to lie to him- Mm-hmm
there's like a, a flicker on his face, and then it goes back to being impassive. Um, but even out of the corner of your eye, you catch it, so you know that there was- Mm-hmm ... emotion there. Um, did you... Where did you find these?
I don't want to tell you [01:50:00] because then I'll have to lie to you, and I've already lied to you twice Yes, you lie a lot, Riven. I don't lie a lot. I just lie when it's convenient.
All right. I will not ask you wherever you found them, but, uh, would you at least, if there are more, distribute them among the crew? I will distribute some among the, amongst the crew Equally. I can't promise that. There's not enough for everyone
You can keep that one then. Actually, she takes the sapphire and she gives you one that's not colored blue. Like, that's... It's a equal amount, but like a different color. What do I get? Uh, let's do a sapphire, but it's like a yellow sapphire, like a- A yellow sapphire. Yeah, like a- Okay ... different color [01:51:00] sapphire.
A topaz, maybe? Sure. There's different color sapphires, but. Yeah. Yeah, yellow sapphire. Okay. Sapphire Um, he'll, he'll, he'll take it, and he'll, he'll, um, pocket it. But there's a reason she gave you the blue one, and then she took it back, so that's why she gave you a different color, 'cause she likes blue, and that's why she wanted to be able to get it back.
Which by the, for the insight, I feel like you would understand that. Were you gonna try to steal it back from me? No, she was waiting for the bread. When she would do the bread, she was gonna take it back. By stealing it? No, by taking it. No, it was collateral. It was collateral. Yeah. I said collateral. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Oh, right, 'cause it was- Yeah ... until I got the bread. Yep. 'Cause you said you wanted fresh bread. Yep. I did. So you can just keep this one. I'll get, I'll still get you your bread.
All right I'll give some to some of the crew I promise[01:52:00]
He just sighs and walks away. Almost like, I don't know, each of us get up too. And with, like, when she walks awa- I don't know if she's gonna walk away ... when she walks away as well. Actually, no. You said you walked away? Yeah. Okay. So she's gonna take off some of like, um, the rope or like strings from her dress and like make like a little knotted like, you know like how they have like some like dice can like have like a little container.
She's gonna take it and make it into like a almost like a necklace, and she's gonna go over to Kathara, and with inside of hand- Oh, sh- ... she's gonna try to like hook it on like your belt. Like... I'll let it happen. Okay. She's not, she's so out of it. Like g- coming back to the ship, the fact that you, that she's even still among you all, it's almost like she's giving her commands or keeping track of certain things and checkups almost [01:53:00] half there.
There's not that same fervor in herself, so you can absolutely do it. Mm-hmm. Cool. Yeah. Absolutely. I'm gonna, I'm gonna come check in on you also by the way. I think she's like standing towards like the front of the ship, kind of not really towards the very, very front, but off to the side just kind of like sitting and just staring- Yeah
out. I'm gonna- Like Griffin runs over. Literally, I'm gonna like- Yeah, I'm gonna- ... just do it- ... I'm gonna see her and be like- ... and then run away ... I'm not gonna. That's another time. Uh, yeah. So I'm gonna like walk up next to you, and I'm not gonna be like the same energetic person that I normally am- Mm-hmm ... on, on the deck.
Like I've kind of given the crew their final orders for the day. They're getting the ship, you know, set right so that way we don't, you know, do any more night sailing. Just once. Yeah. That's all it takes. Yep. [01:54:00] Uh, I'm gonna come up next to you and be like, "You wanna act-" I'm not, I'm not gonna ask you if you wanna talk about what happened in there because I know the answer is no, because that's who you are.
All I'm gonna say is that whatever happened in there is, is gone, right? W- whatever happened in there is left in there, and we're, we're past it. Don't let it define who you are. Don't let it shake who you are to the core, 'cause it doesn't matter. You're here now. The here and now is what matters. You're right.
I am here. They're not. Yeah. And so it's like control what you can control, let the uncontrollables go Also magic's some really messed up sh- stuff. Yeah So like- Necromancers, um, not great. [01:55:00] We hate Tim. We hate Tim. We hate Tim. And from a far room goes, "We hate Tim." There's that like really just that, that deep breath in of, "All right.
Um, " Kinda brushes her hair out and just, "Yes, I'm leaving everything there. Yeah." Yeah. Mm-hmm. You're better- Might as well ... you're better than this. So like carry yourself with that pride that you always have. Yeah. I am better than this. And there's like almost, like you, what you don't know, but what she knows is there's a double meaning to a lot of what she's saying.
Yeah, I'm here. Yeah. You're not. I...
Um- Yeah ... she's like, "Yes, um, goodness. Um, have you eaten?" Uh, that's a great [01:56:00] question. Uh, no. Maybe we should get everyone together and just- Have a, have a dinner? Have, have, have dinner. You can come- Officers dinner? Officers dinner. Officers dinner. Yes. That's- Love me a good officers dinner. Let's, uh, yeah, officer dinner.
Let's, uh, go grab Dren and, and Riven. And Riven. Yeah. Riven is, like was watching the whole time, but like, and listening, but like wasn't near you guys. Like, she was just like watching that whole conversation. Yeah. Like a creepy little creep. Yeah, I just imagine you standing by the door. Literally, like, like maybe- Yeah, right, like I don't think you're making an effort to hide.
Just stands in the- No, no, she is. She, like- Okay ... she is, like this time, like there are moments when she's not, she is very much making an effort to hide and I'm watching it. Roll a stealth check for me. Okay. Okay, that's cocked. It's cocked. Natural one, so maybe- Thought she was hiding it immediately just- Yeah, my, my passive- Is she actually making an effort?
Yeah, so, so you say let's go get Riven and Trin. More like she's m- I was like, "So let's just go get Trin. Come on, Riven." Just... Yeah. [01:57:00] Was like, I think probably what, like everybody's like she started crying, like at your words, 'cause she's like taking you literally and, and her literally and not realizing the like the double entendre that you're doing.
Yeah. Tingus has like some inclination that there is, but- You, you feel there's something off ... but Tingus also is not, uh, the type of person who is gonna try and dig for that just- Mm-hmm ... 'cause like now if I were, now is not the time. Mm. It, it's, it's just not appropriate So we go find Drin, all three of us together.
I'm hungry. He's up in the crow's nest. That's what it says, where, where we would normally find him. Oh, cool. Great. Drin Old man, we're gonna eat. Come down We're gonna have dinner as a group There's, uh... He, he takes a little bit to respond, um, but then there's, um, you see his head from like silhouetted, and he starts climbing down.
Cool. Yeah. Can we do it in the [01:58:00] conference room? Oh, we can do it in the conference room. Yeah. Why not? Racy there. Riven takes off. Well, hang on. Riven, we gotta get dinner first. She's already gone. Oh. She'll figure it out. We'll come down with food, and then she'll realize she doesn't have food- Yeah ... and she'll have to go get her.
She'll have to come right on back. Yep. So yeah, I think we'll, we'll go and grab- Jordan grabs two plates. Oh, my God. What you doing? What you doing? Look at this one. He's just take care of her all the time. Anyways. That's in character. But is that- Oh, yeah. He, he, he actually, he's sort of like not- He's also middle distancing, not as much.
Yeah But he, he's clearly not hearing what you're saying. Oh, it's fine. Yeah. It's, it's in jest anyways. Yeah. Mm-hmm. So like... Yeah. He's, he's just like looking straight ahead. Yeah. And we'll grab- Yeah ... we'll grab food, we'll head to the conference room. Yeah. And I think de- debrief, I guess- Yeah ... post, very much just like catch up on what- Have a chin-wag
what happened. Um, [01:59:00] and then I guess maybe prep for, uh, you know, what do we expect for the, the coronation, like... Yo, I was thinking we should make a song, a shanty for the captain. That's a- A song? Yeah. I mean, all the best captains have shanties about them. I feel like in order to like spread rumor and intrigue that we should, you know, get a shanty going and maybe pay some bards to sing it.
Oh, I thought you wanted us to do that. Ugh. Um. Yeah, okay, yeah. Well, that, we can, we can pay creatives. Well, I mean, I can sing, but... We, we can find creatives, right? Oh, yes. I think there's quite a few probably out and about. But also r- realize how you said the best captains. Is he really the best captain? Well, no, but I know that.
He's a line- But wait, I'm not supposed to say that. I understand his... [02:00:00] She's like searching for the words, like, value. But- ... we want the captain to seem valuable- Correct ... more than he maybe seems now. Branding. The branding. Oh, yeah. And if we don't want to die quickly because people wanting to, you know, end him- Yeah, by association, yeah
it might be best if we kind of build intrigue about him. I mean, I don't think many people know about him. This is like his first few missions. Exactly. Sort of like, yeah. So they don't know that he's incompetent. Yeah. I mean, sorry. No, no. Not- ... as good as other people. No, no. You, you said it right the first time.
Riven, you can, you can say that in front of us. It's just the four of us. She looks around. Oh, okay, cool. So you can say that in [02:01:00] front of us. Yeah. Just not in front of the captain. Drin's, he, he's sort of like- Or probably Tibble ... not looking at- Yeah, okay. Tibble ... still anybody. He's sort of just like staring between the two of you, I imagine.
And with like a bite of food half in his mouth, he's like, "Isn't that what flags are for?" What? Don't, don't pirates have flags or- Well, yeah ... whatever? But that- We can make our own flag now? Like, don't- Well, we could ... isn't that the thing? Yeah. That's what I've heard anyway. Oh, that's true, like Hoist the Colours.
That's a good song. Well, we need to- Is that, is that not a thing? No, that, that's a thing. I- I mean, we need to do that anyways for the new ship to mark it as part of the fleet. I, I can sew Looks at your dress. Are you sure about that? That's not nice. It's only a jest. If I didn't like you, I wouldn't make fun of you.
That's true. I didn't say anything about liking you. You're making fun of my dress, and it's pretty. It's got all the different kinds of blues on it. [02:02:00] But- Beauty's in the eye of the beholder, that's for sure. So what colors do we want it? Um- 'Cause I have to get sea urchin- Oh. I actually, I might have a sea urchin on my dress.
Oh, yeah. And she, like, looks at her dress and she's like, "Ooh, I got one." Okay. Neat. So I have needles. I just need some string, which I could use my surgeon string. We don't need that. No one really got hurt. You can take apart rope into individual strings. Yeah. It's a little bit more sturdy. Okay. Yeah, that twine is better.
Do we have fabric? We should... That's a great question, Quartermaster. Do we have fabric? Uh, we might have maybe some old sails that need to be repaired. We can probably cut something down. Uh, once again, we get into port, we could probably see if there's anything there if we want something a little bit of a different color.
We should consult the captain on colors. Can it be blue? Yes. Oh, wait, you guys are gonna say no. I'm gonna say no. As much as we dislike it, the captain probably has final say in the color scheme. Mm-hmm. No purple. Why not purple? Why? Because it's too royal, and the last thing that we need- ... you know that man wants our voice changed.
Oh, oh, fair. I'm telling you right now, [02:03:00] you know that man's gonna ask for purple. We could have purple accents with blue. No, no, no. That's pretty. No. No purple? No purple. Purple. The, the... When you walk into a town and you see someone with purple, you immediately know they don't know anything about anything that has to do with survival, which means that we do not want purple.
Looks at my, looks at my shirt. Cool, great. You look purple. Really appreciate that. You look really good in purple. I'm aware. Oh, wait, did I do that wrong? I was supposed to be sarcastic. No. No, you're fine. Wait.
You can see me making fun of my outfit- Either way I'm gonna- ... I'm trying to make fun of your outfit ... either way I'm gonna take it on the chin and just move on, so like that's fine. I'm just gonna be standing in the corner just like, "Yeah, Riley, yeah, purple, awful color for- ... to be wearing in general." I didn't- No, no
say that- It's fine. It's fine. Green looks good. We'll ask [02:04:00] the captain when- Okay, so- ... tomorrow Yeah ... we'll ask the captain about colors It's on the list. We'll ask, what, do we want any symbols. Oh, do we, does he have to pick the whole thing? He has like terrible taste. We can have- Have you seen his hat? We can have a song- We can have input-
you sing ... and we can make some executive decisions, uh, for, as a group consensus type thing. Everyone should want to be underneath the, the flag. Okay. We should have a say in it, um, and what it looks like. Okay. All right. So I'll make a song. I'll help with the flag, but I have to wait for the captain. Yes.
We'll have to. We have the rum. Well, we have some rum. How much rum do we actually have, Chris, like- Mm-hmm ... any sort of a ballpark it? Uh, you have, you have multiple casks. Do we think it's gonna be enough? No. Um, with what you have and what is on Captain Peter's boat, yes. 'Cause they loaded [02:05:00] up- Okay ... both. Very cool.
Um, also as much as you have some minor recent success in, in getting treasure, your cargo hold is- We can probably- ... is- ... buy some, yeah ... fuller. It, it was not very full- Yeah ... so it was able to hold- A lot more. Mm. Right. Yeah. Right. Perfect. Do we need anything else? Um, I think that's it for the- I think that's really about it right now
immediate concern. Who do we like tell about the coronation, or is Tybalt handling all that? I think we're, well- Well, that'll probably be a thing when we get to port. Yeah, we'll have to as- a- announce. They'll probably have to figure out a place. Yeah. We'll figure that out when we get there. I assume that we don't want to send some sort of messenger bird type deal.
No, we'll just get there and deal with it when we get there, because we're gonna need Tybalt- Yeah ... anyways to- Is there gonna be a stage? Probably. [02:06:00] Likely. What do you mean we're all dead? Oh, we're all dead. To, to be fair, death is the biggest byproduct of living, so. You guys say, "Death," and Kalthara tenses up.
Well, um, I think I'm finished. Um, continue discussing. I'm gonna go check on the captain to make sure we are ready and for everything, um, for tomorrow. Good night. Good night. Good night. And she gets up to leave. What's wrong with her? That magic that Tim did really messed with her. Oh. Just I don't know what it was, but I don't know what she saw, but it was not good.
Do you know? You talked to her
Is that a no, you're not gonna answer me? That is for her to say
Okay [02:07:00] When, when she's ready to talk about it, if she ever is, she will All right, I guess I'm gonna go to bed then But I guess, uh, death is not a kosher subject right now
It's just a way of life, but- Yeah ... I get it All right. Good night Um, did Kathar actually need to talk to the captain about anything or- Nope. That was a lie. Mm-hmm. We all knew it. We all... Oh, yeah. It's like, "I gotta go do my rounds." Sure you do. Sure I do.
You embark the next morning. Uh, it is not a super far journey. It will basically take all day to get to, uh, the main island of the Pirate Republic. Uh, but it'll still be light [02:08:00] when you get there. Sure. Um
Tybalt has kind of prepared the captain of sorts. Uh- Tybalt has run down- The crew's already- Yeah ... what to expect. Yeah, and kind of has been for a couple days, so. Yeah. Uh, he feels, if anything, um, Tybalt fr- uh, probably feels pretty content in that department and is instead gonna be just kind of spending the day on deck.
Cool. Um, if there was anything specific anyone had- Once we get to the shore ... while approaching the island Oh, I wanna talk to Tybalt. Sure. Hey, Tybalt Yes? What happened to your hand? Oh, long story. We got time. I lied, it's short. You ever... You ever hear that if a shark's coming at you, you punch [02:09:00] them so they get scared and run away?
Yeah, you just boop them on the nose. Yep, don't work. Oh. Yep. Oh, no. That's un- that's unfortunate. Mm-hmm. So, wow. Yep. Yep. I mean, I see you're, you're learning to make by making prosthetics and whatnot. Oh, yeah. It's great fun. Yeah. Good hobby. Yeah. Yeah. You like tinkering? I do. What can you make? I've made lots of things.
That's kind of my background. That was my formal training, if you will. Yeah. Yeah. What... Like, on, on what scale of thing can you make? What do you mean by scale? Oh, I don't know. Can you make, like, uh, things to help the ship be more seaworthy and possibly battle-ready? And... I don't know. I'm just curious about what you can actually do.
Y- yeah, there's all sorts of [02:10:00] reinforcement you can make or gadgets here or there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's all doable. Um, do you have something specific in mind? Oh, no, nothing right now. I just wanted... For the future maybe if we, you know, find that we're lacking in some department, maybe we can figure that out.
But I mean, that's a, you know, if we make it that far type of deal. What do you mean? Oh, you know what? It's fine. Nah, it's fine. Uh, hey, other quick question. Mm-hmm.
What was that healing thing that you did where you roared really loud? It was a healing thing that I do when I roar really loud. Okay, but what was it? It's like a healing roar.
Catkin can't do that Well, it's not really like, okay, [02:11:00] sure, it's a cat kid thing 'cause I roared, but it doesn't have to be like exclusively a roar and/or Catkin thing. It's more of a clerical thing, but clerical in the holy sense, not the like writing things down sense. Yes. No, I, I understood that. Where do you...
Who do you worship that gives you such a unique ability?
That McHatkin It doesn't tell me anything. I know. Can I insight him? Uh I mean, I know he's hiding things- Sure ... but like I wanna see, I wanna just get an idea of like exactly how cagey he's being about it. Sure.
All right. All right. All right In sight. I'm good at this Am I good at this? I am good at this. Are you [02:12:00] good at this? The dice will tell me. No, 14. Um, uh, so a- actually it's not that difficult because it seems like there was almost an intentional, um, almost snarkiness. Um, could you actually roll for college?
Either- Oh, heck yeah. Go to college.
Can I give you history? History. History's good. History or religion. Did you major in history? 12. Yeah. Uh, 12 is enough for surface level knowledge. Sure. Uh, that's, that's your C. Um- Yeah, baby. You, you passed, right? Yeah, that's my major. Uh, I mean, like, yeah, he's a catkin and a cleric, and there's like a whole cat war god.
It's probably just her. Oh, okay. Yeah. Sure. I'm not gonna bother asking him 'cause if I did he'd be like, "Oh yeah, that one." Yeah. Um- Yeah ... there's a, there's a catkin war [02:13:00] god, god of honor, battle. Yeah, yeah. Uh, Heru. Heru. Yeah. Yeah. It's just kind of assumed. But not a lot of people worship her, so... But that's a me thing.
Okay. I look at him, it's like, "All right, well, keep your secrets." What? I'm just gonna walk away at that point.
All right. Um, as you approach the island, you notice there are actually not a lot of ships at port or off of the island. There's only a few. Which would also make sense with the current mission. You are still within a week of Captain Scarlet's orders to go and hunt down- To find that thing. Mm-hmm ... the ship.
So it's not the most surprising thing, uh, that there aren't a lot of [02:14:00] crews back at this point. Do we see coming in Captain Scarlet's ship? Hmm. No. No, none of the ships- Look familiar ... right, it, it is incredibly distinct That was my, that was my big thing was- Yes, they are not- ... coming in, do we see what would be my controlling and back at port?
No. No, you do not. Okay.
Okay. So- Um, do you-- Actually, Kathara, are you-- How are you looking as you're scanning the island, the ships for Scarlett/Mai's ship? Are you, like, consciously, like, actually looking for this, like, on the deck? Yeah, I think coming, coming in closer, she still kind of has that i- that, that thought in the back of her mind of, "We're coming in.
Did Mai and them get here first? Did they say [02:15:00] anything? Are we expecting, um," you know, "Yes, we have Tybalt's word, but do-- are we expecting any sort of, um, resistance? And who's here?" You know, not necessarily with the spyglass or anything, but just trying to pick up on, like, certain, like, sizes of boats and things.
Yeah. So Tybalt will actually approach you as you're scanning out on the boats- Mm-hmm ... uh, and say, um, "She's not going to be here." Oh. I mean...
No, uh, we got Tim to talking. Ah. Uh, she had recently paid him a visit. Oh, before we got back to the ship? Q- uh, before we arrived. Oh. All right. Looking for some help. Uh-huh. But it was unfortunately not [02:16:00] enough for, for their needs.
All right, so- So she is, she is out elsewhere for the time being. Hmm. Great. Uh, so Tim was talking to someone else who doesn't belong on our ship
Um- Oh, Tim, not Jim. Oh, yeah, sorry. Uh, Tim was talking to the captain and I- The dead one. Ah, the dead one ... about, yes, the dead one. Yeah. Oh, okay. Well, I guess that's good for us, you know, just in case, trying to rally up some other crews to, you know, oppose this new change. I wonder how sympathetic they'd be
It, what, and do you mean that in the sense of how Scarlett ruled? [02:17:00] Yeah. Mm. Yes. So what I'm hearing from a few people now is she wasn't that great of a ruler. Somewhere Riven is like... It, it, it, it, it depends on your definition. Um- You know, a, a, a, a great ruler in what sense? In, in the absolute power and effectiveness sense, uh, she was certainly great Right.
But in the overall- Fan club sense ... not great. Right. Uh, Kibble, let me ask you this. Obviously this was all by accident and happenstance that our captain has now become the king. So sorry. Somehow Riven just is feeling shit talk about- ... Captain Scarlet. Yeah. You feel it in your bones. Riven sneezes angrily.
That [02:18:00] was also my quiet sneeze, I'm so sorry. Um, comparing Scarlet to our captain, power, I don't think he may rule it the same way she did, but how do you feel about him and how he might take over? Um, everyone on this world is full of wisdom, and your captain is filled with the second half
So, I guess you'll have a great fan club
Um, so we're fucked I wouldn't say that. At a minimum, at a minimum- Mm-hmm ... people will give it a while just to see what's up. See how the changes go. Right. And then [02:19:00] let's just say hypothetically, um, things don't go great. Who do you think would be gunning for that? How do we keep him safe?
I think that that's
You can only do so much Mm-hmm first of all. And second of all, there's no telling. Uh, let me back up. I have seen You, you, Captain Wilmond will be the fifth pirate monarch- Mm-hmm ... I have seen. Not all of them- Mm-hmm ... are good Right
It just kinda happens. Mm-hmm. [02:20:00] Sometimes ones that aren't that effective actually rule for a surprising amount of time
Right. Now with this whole ruling business, obviously Captain Scarlet would go out and recruit. Does he stay here? Uh- Or does he still- I think for- Captain ... the short term, uh, that's probably a good idea. Mm-hmm. Uh, we've been talking, uh, we've been talking with, uh, Jim as- Mm-hmm ... well. Mm-hmm. Uh, with his background, he might be a little bit better suited to-
Gather information and advise the captain on the underbelly side of the island- Makes sense ... while things are going on. No, it makes sense. I mean, gosh, it's easy to get out a lot of that [02:21:00] information. I would watch him. I mean, you, you were on the ship with him. Watch him. Um, any person comes along who gives him a better deal, he's gonna go f- follow them.
Yes. I, I trust Jim because he is not that capable alone- Mm ... and very ambitious. Oh, no doubt of that. So I think he will do his absolute hardest to keep the captain safe. Hmm. Well, it somewhat eases a lot of my concerns, um, moving forward with this. It's gonna be interesting what we do, well, me, the rest of the crew, do in the meantime.
It's changing for us[02:22:00]
Yeah, as the seas do Right. Thrilling conversation table. Um, thank you for prepping the captain, um, on what to expect, um, as we get in and deal with the change of powers
Is a sarcasm situation going on? I'm not- No. Sorry, I'm just... It's who I am. Um- Mm-hmm ... definitely not sarcastic. It will come across sarcastic. All right. Uh, it's, it's weird to not be that person in that role. What do you mean? You know, briefing the captain on what to expect, things like that, because that is not my wheelhouse.
I understand. I hope it wasn't too much overstepping or anything. No, you have the most knowledge What you're supposed to do [02:23:00] Uh, yeah, for, for the time. Wonderful. Uh, I'm gonna go, uh, check stock. Mm-hmm. She's gonna walk away. Uh, the Boat is, uh, pulling in to an actual, uh, dock slip into port Okay. Riven's gonna be at the, like, the bow.
Bow? Mm-hmm. Yes. Bow of it. She's yelling out, "The King Captain's here!" Jesus Christ. "You better watch out." Oh my G- Riven. I'm so excited. Okay. Somewhere Drin mutters into his hand, "We're all dead." And she- I go, I run up to you just like, "Riven, shh. Stop it." What? We want to do announce it. Not yet. Ugh. All right, I'm getting off this ship.
You guys are [02:24:00] boring to me today. And she's gonna- Oh my God ... she's gonna, like, try to, like, jump off the ship onto the- I'm not gonna catch you. I know. I'm, I'm, I'm, she's gonna, like, once we, like, get close enough, she's gonna, like, try to, like, yeah. You were close enough as you were yelling. Yeah, then she's gonna just- Yeah
jump off and start- Okay ... like, walking forward. Uh, people are turning to look at the boat. At least go find a newsie.
What? A newsie? The eel pirate newsie. Oh, eel. Yeah. Um, a little brief description of the island itself, as some of you may have spent some, a small amount of time here before. But it, it features some amenities. Uh, less exciting, there is a lumberyard off to the side to help with the construction of certain things.
Uh, there is actually a small hospital. Uh, there is a large town hall with a frontal meeting space, and, uh, attached to [02:25:00] the back is a private dwelling occupied whoever the current ruler is. Um, there are several storage warehouses, um, some of which, uh, do hold periodic auctions for unsold or difficult-to-move goods from different crews, just get this out of here.
Um, additionally, the, the closest buildings to the beaches away from the docks are actually freely available, uh, miniature bunkhouses, uh, just for crews to use as they are here. Um, but you know, pick up after you're done. And lastly, there are two taverns, uh, Lands Loved and The Buck Stop. Uh, one of them does, uh, feature a card room.
Hmm. Hey, [02:26:00] Chris, point of order. Yep. So there's a monarchy as the, like, actual head rulers. Is there also, like, a parliament or something that, like, the monarch has to answer to? No. They're pirates. This is fairly well organized for the pirate, like- It was decently- ... whatever ... yeah. They, the, it, it, it is very, um- It, it is a bit utilitarian in the sense of like, no, we have a need.
Like, we as pirate crews cannot always go to shore. Yeah. Like- Yeah ... we're proper ports, so we need solutions. Yeah. We can do it ourselves. Um- And she's like, "Don't be a jerk." Yep. Don't be a jerk. Yep. Um, as Riven, like, jumps off the ship and is like, starts like saying sh- like everyone's worrying, she's like, "If anyone needs me, I'm at the tavern."
Which one? The one with cards, obviously. Which one is that? Uh, The Buck Stop. The Buck Stop. Yep. So she's gonna like stomp [02:27:00] away 'cause she's like mad that no one wants to play with her.
Now, the boat comes to dock. Um You all can, uh, disembark perhaps more- Oh. Uh, traditionally- The traditional way ... as opposed to jumping off the boat. The traditional way. Uh, and afterwards, um, there are, uh... Your crew hands are going to be unloading the rum, uh, and bringing it towards the taverns and storehouses.
Mm-hmm. Uh, additionally, some are going to be boarding your dinghies to go out to Captain Peter Rabbids'- Mm-hmm ... ship- Mm ... which is not going into the port proper- Mm-hmm ... to [02:28:00] ferry- It back and forth Right. Yeah ... more. Got it. Yes. Um, they primarily took crates of bottles. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Okay. Um- It makes sense because storage
and they will, uh, yeah, just ferry, ferry shipments across, um, minimizing the number of zombies involved. For now, yeah. Though- To not- ... they are definitely seen by people on, in the port, and, uh, murmurings are spreading quickly as you are- That's what I'm wondering. If we're going in, is- Yes ... Kathar hearing that?
Yes. Okay. Yeah, lots of, like- Do you see this? Like, yeah. Like, what is- Like, getting people's attention, pointing at this cobbled together boat, people looking through spyglasses, seeing clearly what's on deck. What is the, the murmuring? Is it more shock, surprise, or is it- Intrigued ... like, scared? [02:29:00] Like, what is, what is, what is the feeling?
Yeah, yeah. Almost like there is so much awe, the fear isn't sinking in. Right. So I think- Yeah ... hearing that and kind of walking in- Yeah, that's good ... probably toward the, towards a tavern, uh, Kathar is gonna walk by and be like, "Yeah, the new, uh, the new pirate king, uh, actually has a undead crew, um, among his ranks."
Um- And to anyone- And if you start- ... who hears ... murmuring that, then it will also change to, "Wait, Scarlett's dead?" Mm-hmm. As that will begin to, like, kind of cascade- I want, I wanna, I wanna take it off of the zombies. Yeah. I need to turn it to something else. Um- I don't even want them knowing that I'm, I'm stuck on the ship until we're done ferrying stuff, 'cause I gotta make sure the crew does- Mm
their job. Yep. Yeah, it does take a while, but it's- 'Cause I go to the tavern and make sure, "Did you get this shipment? Okay, you should have this much. You should have this much." I'm doing the quartermaster thing
Stop. [02:30:00] Um, yes, it- I'm gonna stay up. Oh, wait. Can I, could I have grabbed the spyglass at some point? I, I don't know if I had it last- I don't have it. I don't have it. I don't have it. You had it last. Oh, I, oh, I did have it? Yeah. Okay. I'm gonna hang up in the crow- in the crow's nest, but I'm watching the island to see how...
I'm, like, watching people's... You know, you can sort of, like, see people's- Trying to see if, like, a crowd is forming somewhere? Yep. I, I'm looking everywhere to see people's reactions. Like, are people gathering in one area? Are people rushing? Are people running? Is it, is this traveling slowly, quickly, panic?
I'm trying to gauge all of those things. Quickly, but maybe not to the extent of panic. So you see exactly the opposite. It is not people gathering, it is people scattering to, like, spread what news they have. Mm. As, as quick as reasonable. Zombie crew. Scarlet's dead. Right, yeah. There's a lot going on. Um- There's more rum
when Riven gets, like, out of sight of, like, the crew, she's gonna, like, go into an [02:31:00] alley, and she's gonna change her form into a human, like, very, like, bland looking, um, human form. And then she's gonna, um, come out, and she's going to just start, like, adding to the intrigue. And she's gonna be like, "Oh my gosh, did you hear about Captain Scarlet?
Like, she got, she got killed by the new Captain King." And, like, she's just gonna add- Dang ... onto little murmurs. And, like, every so often she'll change into a different, um, human, maybe a man this time or a child, and kind of build story and intrigue. And like, "Man, I heard the coronation's gonna be crazy." And then once she gets closer to the tavern, then she'll, like, go to the side and change back and go into the tavern.
Okay. I would like you to make an insight check with- Okay ... advantage
Uh, natural 20. Seven. Seven.[02:32:00]
Oh. And the king's hit. Um, you get the general Vibe of the people- Mm-hmm ... is very curious and a bit cautious. Okay. Like, there is a lot of surprise. This is very unexpected. Mm-hmm. Another note that you hear repeated more than once is, "Who is this captain?" Mm-hmm. There is not a reputation there. Mm-hmm. Like, there is genuine surprise at the lack of reputation- Mm-hmm
being someone that- Mm-hmm ... killed Captain Scarlet. Mm-hmm. Um, you do not, you distinctly do not notice any outward celebration that [02:33:00] Scarlet is dead. Got it. But you don't get a lot of disappointment or grieving. Okay. Okay, good to know. Neutral's good. Neutral's good. Mm-hmm. Um, Riven is a little upset, though, at the fact that no one is grieving.
She's like, in a way when she's, like, trying to give the intrigue, like, any time, like, someone was, like, not, like, sad, she's like, "Yeah, but it's really sad she died, though, right?" Like, and, like, trying to, like, get it, even though it may not be coming, like, back. Like- If, if you actually say something like that- Yeah, yeah
you will almost get a little bit of surprise. Mm-hmm. And the conversation will end shortly after. Okay, okay. Like, they will try to, like, they will leave quicker than they were originally intending to. Okay. Yeah, Riven's confused by this, but she continues. Like, she doesn't understand why, but she continues to do that.
And then she goes to the tavern. She changes back and goes to the tavern. Uh, [02:34:00] for the rest of you, as the captain, Jim, and Tybalt leave the ship and head towards the town, town hall, you do notice a fair bit of recognition from people. Um, and they do stop to say, like, hello in passing as that group moves towards the town hall.
Probably because of Tybalt being there- Yeah ... being that recognizable anchor point of- Yeah ... okay. Just whoever he's with is probably- Mm-hmm ... the king. Mm-hmm. 'Cause there's no reason for him to be on any other crew because people probably know- Mm, derpy ... that he is with the crown. Mm-hmm. I mean, five captains.
Yep
You staying on the ship, buddy? Um, is everything fully unloaded? Yeah, that's kind of where we are with that. Yeah, so it, it, it takes a bit over an hour, but you're all unloaded. Um, Drin's gonna go with the [02:35:00] captain, 'cause this is what he was hired to do, and he can't know how to remain safe if he doesn't know what's happening.
That is true. And, and the captain, Tibald Jim, they do not depart until the unloading is- Yes. Oh, yeah ... is completed. Yeah, I, I probably also would work with them. So the two of us- Yeah ... join up. Yeah. Uh, and where is Cathara in this? Are you- I think after making sure that, like, the taverns have things, like the stock as it's coming in- Mm
making sure things are where it needs to be, the storehouse. She'll be actually awaiting them. Like, she'll probably come, like either she just checks to see how much needs to go there, and then obviously like be like, "All right, make sure they have this there- Mm-hmm ... and they have this much here, and the rest can go into storage.
Great. Cool." She will probably be either probably like arriving at the same time at the town hall, or they will meet her out front at the town hall, waiting for them. Okay. Um, Riven is in a tavern? Yeah, the tavern with the- The Buck Stop ... the cards. The Book Stop. [02:36:00] What? Yes. Buck Stop. Buck Stop. Like, the buck stops here.
Yeah. Oh. Um, as things are going on, uh, the tavern actually clears out- Okay ... pretty decently. Like, not all at once- Mm-hmm ... but as the commotion kind of, like, ramps up slowly, more and more people are kind of sucked away from- Got it ... what they were doing, and like, "Oh, no, I guess I should kind of go see what's up," type of thing.
Someone probably runs in like- Is there- "Hey, they're over here" ... is there any, like, musicians or, like, people with musical instruments in the tavern? So it is a little early. Okay. Uh, there was a couple of musicians setting up. They have not started yet. Okay. They have kind of slowed down that process- Okay
because of everything going on. I'm gonna walk up to them and be like- Okay ... "Hi, I'm Riven." And she's gonna stick her hand out. Uh, hello. So I don't know [02:37:00] if you've heard, but there is a new king captain, Captain King. Um, and I'm a part of his crew, and I wrote this shanty, and I was wondering if you would like to perform at the coronation.
Um, sorry, this is a lot. New, new captain- Yeah ... king. Yeah ... Captain Scarlet's dead. Yeah, RIP. That isn't really something to, like, brush... Uh, yes, yeah. Um. Aw. RIP. RIP. Uh, right. Uh, uh- Rest in power ... rip in peace. Um- She was wearing a pepperoni bra. She was in pieces. Anyways. Hey. Oh, oh. Oh. I can make that worse. You didn't make it worse.
She was pulverized. She wasn't in pieces. Oh, rest in- Oh ... pulverization. Yes, okay. Yeah, easy. Um, okay. Uh, w- when? [02:38:00] Um- Right ... to all of it, actually. When did- When ... this happen, and- Okay, well- ... what is going on now? ... I mean, I feel like that information is, like, really not super relevant right now. The question that's relevant is, are you available for hire?
Um, yes. Cool. Yes. How much do you normally p- get costs? Um, uh- Yes ... for a coronation? No, normal. Oh. I feel like a coronation is- No ... like, more valuable than- Normal ... hmm. And she's trying to intimidate, so.
Um, oh man. Okay. Go ahead and make an intimidation check. Okay. Ooh
Uh, 21. Oh. They rolled [02:39:00] well- 21 ... but not that well. Uh, they start to like say, they're like, "Oh, but a coronation's gonna be..." And you're like kind of staring them down. Mm-hmm. And they're like, "30." 30 gold? Yeah. Okay. You'll get 15 now, and 15 after the coronation. Excellent. Cool. Love work- doing business with you.
So I will come find you in... Soon. I gotta talk to my captain. Um, here's the, uh, song. And she like shoves a, like, like looks like a scrap, but it, like- And they open it ... it's a song, but it like looks like a scrap paper. So when you say song, is this lyrics? So- Is this- Yeah, so that's the thing. It's- One part harmony or it, they're in both parts- No.
It's not music. What? So there's no words- Drawings? ... but there are notes. Oh, God. Okay. Yeah. Um, because she can't write. So- [02:40:00] Makes sense. And when you say there are notes- They're like, they're staff. Like, n- like bars and stuff. And she, they're like, yeah. Ribbon note staff. Yeah. You know how to write music- Yeah
but not words. Yeah. That actually makes sense. I've played characters like this before, trust me. Yeah. That actually makes sense. Yeah. Does it? Um- Or is it just like- A little bit. No, but that's actually a- ... delightfully nonsensical? Well, we'll talk about it later. All right. Maybe a little of both. Um, there's only s- uh, E-G-B, A-B-C-D-E-F-G.
Seven letters, so she doesn't know how- Yeah ... she only knows seven letters. Like, she doesn't know how to write words, she just knows seven letters such so she can put it on the staff. Anyways, so it looks very sloppy though. It's not like the best. It's like, "Can you play this?" Uh, I will take it. Um- How would you, the player, describe you, the character's musical ability and ability to transcribe?
Are they caught off guar- Like is [02:41:00] this- It's probably like- ... good? ... high school- Okay ... level s- good song. Not re- like, like high school bands. Yeah, how, how much music theory do you know is the real question. But you know, it's like high school band. Like it, it's like a melody. It's not like four-part harmony or whatever.
Like it's just a melody. Do you know if there's some chords also written out for them or no? No, just a melody. Super basic. It's literally like- Perfect ... just like- Super basic. Do you have a key? Sure. Yeah, it's on a, it's on a ring. All right. Yeah. Yeah. Jesus Christ. Pun jar. It's, yeah, it's like, you know, basic like beginner's guitar like- I know I have that
you know? Or piano or whatever. Um, so it's like basic, basic stuff. It's like this is the melody. I don't know how to do anything else besides melody. Um, and I don't know the words yet, but I can sing them when I rem- get them if you- Oh, you're going to be singing? Yep. Okay. Mm-hmm. That's why normal rate, not coronation rate, because I'm gonna be in the front.[02:42:00]
Understood. Mm-hmm. Okay. So can you do it? Yes. I just need a band. But you need to add the stuff to it like so it sounds good Yeah, we can improv. Sounds good. Okay. Just add all the words- All the words No, no, I got the words ... she needs the words. I just don't know how to write them. They just need to come up- they just need to come up with the harmonies and chord progressions.
So- Yeah ... he just has to try to match as she's singing words that he doesn't know because they're not written down. Well, no, he just, he's just playing the, the stuff on the music. Yeah, yeah. That, that, that's fine. He doesn't need to care about what she's saying. It's difficult. The point is for it to be difficult.
It's fine. I feel so bad for him. Don't. He was trying to swindle me. That's fine. Okay, but after this, he's gonna be able to charge so much more- Yeah ... 'cause he's gonna be able to say that he was- He's gonna be famous. Exactly. "I helped with the coronation song for the new coronation." What's your name again?
And there's, first of all- That's my favorite thing to do, Chris ... so first of all, there's two of them, and, uh, I didn't even describe them. Stevie and Nick. Yeah, never mind. There it is. That's so much [02:43:00] better. Stevie and Nick. I had real names- You're welcome ... and it doesn't matter. They're Stevie and Nick. Stevie and Nick.
There you go. You're welcome. I was ready for this. Not like I play cards. Okay. I was too, but like, it, it, it's, you know, it's just better. It's fine. I was so ready for this. Yes. Well, it's nice to meet you. Um, I will be back in- Well, not Bon and Jovi ... I guess I'm gonna probably stay here 'cause I told them I was gonna be here, so I'll be at the bar drinking.
You guys can practice. Practice. Okay. It- I don't know when it's happening. Practice? When my people get over here, they'll tell me, and then I'll tell you. Oh, uh, uh, your people, the crew? W- who are you? Oh, I'm Riven. I already told you that. Right. Oh, right. Sorry. Who am I in the Grandsong thing? Yeah. I'm the surgeon on the ship for
K- I'm sorry. I got to... The Captain King will fail. [02:44:00] He is the new- He's-
He's the new- Come on, you can do it. We're there. We're almost there. He's the new Captain King, and he's the one that's in charge. But Kit Kat, um, sorry, Kathara. Kathara will be the one that is in charge of all of, like, the logistics and stuff, and she'll be here soon 'cause she really needs a drink. Um, but that's...
You didn't need to know that, I guess. Um, anyways. So it's nice seeing you, CB Nick. I'm gonna go get a drink now. And they're just kind of staring. Can we have Ribbon do all of the social interactions from now on, please? Yep.
Somehow the ulcer's coming back in Kathara's stomach. Oh, wait, you're not, you're not just, like, h- your eye's not just twitching, [02:45:00] just- I feel something in the wind. Yeah. Ugh, something's off. Ugh. Why is my eye... Stop it.
Just twitching- Kathara, are you okay? ... in front of the town hall. Ah! Something's off. Uh- But as you reach, uh, reach the town hall, a small group gathers. And with that- Ugh ... uh, those parting words and interaction, we will join, uh, or, or please join us next week- For coronation ... for our new, for our new, uh, Pirate King's coronation.
