What's up, everybody? It's Will. I play Dollyon Adolf, and welcome to our original tabletop RPG game entitled Fallen Star developed by our very own Eric, aka doctor Awesome. Now I wanna let you know that this is a original game. It's not D and D, story that you have never heard before.
Mac (Dolion):So sit back, relax, and I hope you enjoy, listen to us exploring the world of Serbia. Take care.
Joe (Jer):So basically, it just gives me 10 10% of dodge, like, if they attack. You know what I mean?
EJ (Game Master):Okay. So I'll
Joe (Jer):use that, like, concurrently with an attack.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Good idea. Dolian, it's your turn. Distance weapons if you have them.
Mac (Dolion):Yeah. I got it. I got that. You know, I keep that thing on me. We're gonna use the crossbow, go with
Tay (Melody):the, let's
Mac (Dolion):go with the dual shot. 2 arrow times arrow damage, negative 10 enemy defense.
EJ (Game Master):Excellent. And gets ready for his defense. Definitely. Get defend. They are not looking at your direction, and they didn't know exactly where you were, so he can't defend anyway.
EJ (Game Master):So their backs are to you because they got knocked down. The only one who's kinda facing your direction is this one, but he still got his head kinda leaning over his shoulder because he just saw what happened to his buddies. You do notice this guy seems to be backing away, like, I'm gonna take off.
Mac (Dolion):Cool. I'm shooting the dude, closest to me, the one that's not aware that I'm there. I rode a 17, it's a 100 damage.
EJ (Game Master):Okay.
Mac (Dolion):Or 100 damage. And I used the normal bolt, so that's a plus a 100 damage
EJ (Game Master):Okay. To that. Okay. Go ahead. You still have more actions.
Mac (Dolion):Yep. 1, bonus to critical is 5%. Bonus to to critical for the move is 15. So do I roll the 2 tens now to see if I get a crit or not?
EJ (Game Master):Yes. Because you got a 17. That's why if you guys call your call your shots too when you get a chance, like, if you're taking distance to even with us up close, if you call it, like, hey, I wanna hit his hand or chop his hand off or
Tay (Melody):Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):I wanna hit him in the throat
Mac (Dolion):or, you
EJ (Game Master):know, like when Willie attacked a snake, he went right for its throat. The same thing when you're shooting too, you could say, hey, I wanna shoot him in the eye.
Tay (Melody):No. No. No.
EJ (Game Master):For 16, it goes to, you know, it's a it's a called
Tay (Melody):hit for the most part.
Mac (Dolion):That part is a mispeak on my part. That only works for Unseen Arrow. I did a dual shot, so, we'll go ahead. I'll use 2 more turns, doing, the dual shot. Okay.
Mac (Dolion):So, the next one, 18, and then
EJ (Game Master):Okay. He's dead now.
Mac (Dolion):Okay. Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):He he had already taken damage from the the sweeping slash, and then tattoo. So he's gone. You can now attack someone else if you want.
Mac (Dolion):Let me get the guy who's kind of facing my way, but isn't really so the 2 attacks took out the first guy. Correct?
EJ (Game Master):Yes.
Mac (Dolion):Alright. 3rd attack, 16. No. What's that? Oh, the little line.
Mac (Dolion):Oh, 19. There we go.
EJ (Game Master):Oh, double damage again. Alright. He's dead too.
Mac (Dolion):And then, shit, I got one more go, Fuck it. Let's do it again. Collecting bodies out here. 10.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. I think that might still hit. And what's your bonuses to hit?
Mac (Dolion):For dual shot, there's no bonus to hit.
EJ (Game Master):What's the short bow? Does the short bow happen?
Mac (Dolion):No. I'm using a crossbow, and there's no, bonus to hit for that. Okay.
Tay (Melody):Alright. So combat information, there's a bonus to hit.
Mac (Dolion):Plus 4.
EJ (Game Master):Oh, then you definitely hit him. So that's is it a dual shot again or just a normal shot?
Mac (Dolion):No. It's a dual
EJ (Game Master):shot. Okay. So he's definitely I'm guessing you're going for the next closest guy? Yep. Got hit too, so.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. He's not dead, but he falls in the water. So that's now he's down. I I wish I could put something on
Tay (Melody):on him to let
EJ (Game Master):it snow he's down.
Tay (Melody):Can you put, like, a slash on him or something?
EJ (Game Master):There. You guys see that little
Mac (Dolion):Weighted down with the anvil
EJ (Game Master):of pain. Weighted down with anvil on his head. That that doesn't make any sense, but there you go. So Alright. So now you guys have 3.
EJ (Game Master):It's now, Melody's turn.
Tay (Melody):Mhmm.
EJ (Game Master):What do you wanna do?
Tay (Melody):So, Willie, when you were going, did you use any EPMP at all?
Mac (Dolion):Yes. So each of those took some, so I'm sitting at a 150 EPMP.
Tay (Melody):Cool. So for 3 of my turns, I'm gonna go ahead and replenish 250 of your EPMP. So you, you have, like, 750 again. And then, so I don't really have a skill for this on my sheet, but I wanted to ask if I could try it. So my loot has, like, fire.
Tay (Melody):Right?
Jenn (Mara):Mhmm.
Tay (Melody):And it does, like, a wave of, like, disruption, And with Jair kind of, like, being, like, behind all these dudes, can I kind of, like, try to use some, like, flame to, like, shoot their backs because they're all looking at him?
EJ (Game Master):Yes. Absolutely. Because those guys, like, the one that, Dolion just hit, it's down. Mhmm. Both of them are definitely within your range of you getting you using your, loop to hit them with the accord, like, basically a riff and just, you know, so that would hit them with flame right in the back.
EJ (Game Master):And because it's behind them and they're reptilian, like the snake, they take extra from the fire.
Tay (Melody):Right. So what, what would I roll for something like that?
EJ (Game Master):Just roll a 20 sided die. Try to roll try to get a high high roll.
Tay (Melody):High roll.
Mac (Dolion):Let's go and roll. 16.
Tay (Melody):9. Alright.
EJ (Game Master):How much damage or roll the the 6 sided again?
Tay (Melody):6? Yep. Cube? We're not gonna use that one because fuck that one. We're gonna use a different one.
Mac (Dolion):Hey. It's
Tay (Melody):like Jade 1. Options.
Blak (Machitis):Damn. Alright.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. So this guy's dead,
Tay (Melody):and now
EJ (Game Master):this guy is incapacitated. So we're gonna use this symbol now for incapacitated. There you go.
Mac (Dolion):Good stuff, Melody.
EJ (Game Master):Good job. Alright, Mara.
Jenn (Mara):Yes.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. I am going to cast,
Jenn (Mara):drown in blood. So they'll take 200 damage, per turn for 78 turns. And then I'll cast, hail of stones, which will take, 1300 damage.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. And,
EJ (Game Master):with the hail area?
Jenn (Mara):Yes. 5 meter area. So about 10 meter area, and that's reverse or physical resistance negative 10%.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Which area did you wanna hit then? Since it's a 10 meter area, it's basically gonna look like 4 cubes together. You know what I mean?
Jenn (Mara):I'm going to hit these 2. Yeah. Those those 2 over there.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. They're dead. They're so dead. That was way beyond their life their life force. So they are dead dead.
EJ (Game Master):This guy's incapacitated, so you guys are clear for the moment. Now, now is the awkward, hey, dude. What do you guys wanna do now that you see this guy is not going anywhere. He's probably close to death. So what do you guys wanna do?
Mac (Dolion):Sparta kicked him in the hole. No. I'm playing. I
Tay (Melody):if I
Mac (Dolion):was close to the house, I fucking bit the spider.
EJ (Game Master):This is sewer.
Jenn (Mara):I'll I'll go I'll go and talk to him.
Mac (Dolion):You can tell my view I said what's, like, down there.
Jenn (Mara):This is spotter.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Are you guys going all together or
Tay (Melody):Nope. I'm gonna stay behind these rocks and wait for them to come over to us. Okay.
Jenn (Mara):I'll go. I'm immune to venom. So
EJ (Game Master):Brad. Okay.
Jenn (Mara):Just let you know.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. You guys are in a good situation. Let's go back to our friend Machitus. My man.
Tay (Melody):Find out
EJ (Game Master):if he's gonna make it to you guys today.
Blak (Machitis):Let's pray.
EJ (Game Master):Alright.
Blak (Machitis):Let us pray.
Tay (Melody):It's that walk, that worship and prayer.
EJ (Game Master):No.
Mac (Dolion):W I p. That's
EJ (Game Master):That's what I mean. This is your current situation. You hear some screeches in the distance, Machidas, and these 2 are trying to get back into some sort of attack pattern. You know, he's wounded pretty bad because his right arm is just hanging there. So when you hooked him and he ran rammed in the wall, that did enough to probably damage that right arm.
EJ (Game Master):He's not gonna be fully attacking a lot. So your best guess is the screeches and so forth might be them calling for more.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. Or
EJ (Game Master):the NFL. It's however you wanna look at.
Blak (Machitis):I sorry. You said I could see I could see perfectly right now. Right?
EJ (Game Master):Absolutely. Alright.
Tay (Melody):You can
EJ (Game Master):read a book in this dark right now.
Blak (Machitis):Where's my where's the guy at? Did he run-in a lot?
EJ (Game Master):Off into the water with, one of the ghouls.
Blak (Machitis):Oh, great.
EJ (Game Master):Now he has no weapon. It's kind of a bad bad situation. That's bad on bad. Plus, he's wearing 3 mill in order.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. Can I give him one of mine?
EJ (Game Master):You can. First, you're gonna have to find him, maybe save him from drowning, because he's off in here somewhere. You don't know how deep that water is, but I don't. Alright. You do know how to swim, so
Mac (Dolion):Contrary to popular belief.
Blak (Machitis):I want I wanna I wanna take my chances and help him Okay. Because him with me is is is better.
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. So I mean, that makes sense. Alright. So you wanna drop down into here?
Blak (Machitis):Yep. You can see it perfectly.
EJ (Game Master):So now if you want, you can kinda roll your chance to perceive to get a better idea what the layout is I'll describe.
Blak (Machitis):Alright. Let me, what's my chance to perceive right now?
Tay (Melody):So on your character sheet, like, kind of right underneath your character, 3, columns down, chance to perceive, next to perception.
Blak (Machitis):Where is
Tay (Melody):it? On your character information sheet, it's that, like, second block. It says character attributes. It's gonna be the second, like, grayed out column. 3rd down
Blak (Machitis):Oh, I meant, 75. 75.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Go ahead and roll it.
Blak (Machitis):Oh, shit. Hold on. 52.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. So you can see that the guy has been dragged up here on top or by one of the ghoul that took him into the water, and the ghoul is trying to rip up his chest plate and try to bite into him.
Blak (Machitis):Alright. So let's, let's go on the offensive with him. Can he see me?
EJ (Game Master):He looks unconscious. He might have drowned,
Tay (Melody):or he
EJ (Game Master):might need to be re revived.
Blak (Machitis):And, there's a monster in there. What am you saying?
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. This one that tumbled in the water with him is dragging him up on these steps. Like, you can barely see. Like, these steps here, and he's dragging them up trying to rip off the chest plate to eat on him.
Blak (Machitis):Nah, homie. Gone. He's gone. So, I can see him, but I haven't gotten in the water yet. Right?
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. You're still up on this ledge, basically, where water is kind of pouring down into this. It's about waist deep, so it might be about thigh deep for you. It's not as deep. You're kind of, you know, you're taller than most of these these characters.
EJ (Game Master):It's not that deep. You can see around the whole room on the other side of the room in this direction, you do see something larger coming. And that obviously doesn't see you yet, but it's just moving because it hears the commotion.
Blak (Machitis):Nah. Let's fight these other guys. I'm already in the fight, so if I get if I could see him and I think he's dead, which if they're preparing to feast on him, let him meet.
Tay (Melody):Yeah.
Blak (Machitis):Let's fight. Let's fight these guys.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. This one comes chart at you. It's your turn. It drops down off the ceiling.
Blak (Machitis):So can I go on the defensive? Right? Mhmm. So let's do a side roll.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. So he cut he drops down, and he tries to call you. Alright. He misses. You can counter if you want.
Blak (Machitis):Yeah. Let's counter.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Go ahead and roll to hit him. What do you want? Do you have a move that you wanna use, or are you just gonna just try chop him or
Blak (Machitis):let's do a side rolling hook. Okay.
EJ (Game Master):So I've rolled pointside back.
Blak (Machitis):10.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. You hit him too. So you got more than 1, you can take your turns now. You have 2 more actions because the counter doesn't count because it was a defense. So now you have 2 offensive actions if you wanna hit him some more.
Blak (Machitis):Yep. Let's go with a screw it. Let's go with a skull crusher. 9.
EJ (Game Master):Okay.
Blak (Machitis):1 net.
EJ (Game Master):Roll your chance to break bone. It should be in your combat area. Combat information, right side, little bit little bit down from the top.
Blak (Machitis):You said combat information?
Tay (Melody):Mhmm.
Blak (Machitis):Chance
Tay (Melody):to
EJ (Game Master):The last bullet on again.
Jenn (Mara):Darn those rogues.
EJ (Game Master):It's
Tay (Melody):okay. He'll be back.
EJ (Game Master):He's selling the venom sacks. That's what he's there he is. Back in.
Tay (Melody):I think last time I saw him, there was no chance to break bone.
Blak (Machitis):Yeah. I don't see that.
EJ (Game Master):Oh, okay.
Tay (Melody):Yeah. We have the chance to for critical and transfer to capitate, but that's Yeah.
Blak (Machitis):So yeah. That's what I have.
EJ (Game Master):Click on your strength on the fur front part of your sheet should have a section that says break, like, on your strength to the right of your strength.
Jenn (Mara):It says bend break under
Blak (Machitis):your character attribute. It's 46%. Okay.
Jenn (Mara):Go and roll. Does your weapon do anything additional to that?
EJ (Game Master):Check your weapon. Pressure might.
Jenn (Mara):It might give you a bonus.
Blak (Machitis):Bonus to critical is 5, bonus to the capitate is 20.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Go ahead and roll 2 tens and find let's see.
Blak (Machitis):2 tens.
Tay (Melody):Tens. Tens. Tens.
EJ (Game Master):44. Okay. He's dead. He falls over on the ground. You don't see this one anymore.
EJ (Game Master):You do hear, the, impact of powerful spells and so forth coming from south of you towards this direction.
Blak (Machitis):So here up
EJ (Game Master):here, this might be where your friends are at.
Blak (Machitis):So let's go that way.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Since you cleared that out, you're I think your movement's like 6, but you you have plenty of time. So I'm putting you down here. You gotta kinda go through this crevice, and it'll you'll drop out into the other section.
Blak (Machitis):Gotcha.
EJ (Game Master):So so Machitus is on his move there. Make sure you write down the that's total of 3 ghouls. Let me get back to Azul's. Okay. So your group is all together here.
EJ (Game Master):What is going on?
Jenn (Mara):I went to talk to the dying sea stack.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. He's just laying there. What do you wanna say?
Blak (Machitis):I will ask him
Jenn (Mara):what the giant snake was. Does he worship it?
EJ (Game Master):All glory to Vistar. The snake was just an animal. Vistar is the almighty.
Jenn (Mara):Have you ever seen Vistar?
EJ (Game Master):You will see Vistar soon.
Jenn (Mara):Where is Vistar?
EJ (Game Master):Vistar is here.
Jenn (Mara):And the catacombs?
EJ (Game Master):Alright. He doesn't answer.
Jenn (Mara):It's just there.
EJ (Game Master):Oh, he's dead.
Tay (Melody):Right. No problem for Mara. She can speak to the dead.
EJ (Game Master):Alright.
Mac (Dolion):What's this
Jenn (Mara):gonna do?

Jenn (Mara):revive him? Yeah. I'll try to revive him.
EJ (Game Master):Okay.
Jenn (Mara):Oh, you thought you were done talking. We'll see. Alright. Yes. I can talk to him.
EJ (Game Master):He says, let me die, witch.
Jenn (Mara):Not today. I'm not done. That was rude of you to die. Very inconsiderate. Is there any more snakes in the tunnels?
EJ (Game Master):Yes.
Jenn (Mara):How many?
EJ (Game Master):My brethren or the big snakes?
Blak (Machitis):The big snakes. 3.
Jenn (Mara):Fuck. Where are they?
EJ (Game Master):Alright. He kinda meant meant kinda like motions, I guess, is the best way to put it this direction.
Jenn (Mara):That's 3 total?
Tay (Melody):Mhmm.
Jenn (Mara):How many of your brethren are down here?
EJ (Game Master):Many. More every day.
Jenn (Mara):Mhmm. The star brings
EJ (Game Master):us. No. The blood of the the blood of the humans allows us to come.
Mac (Dolion):Hey, yo.
Jenn (Mara):Blood of the humans. Do you feed on humans?
EJ (Game Master):No. Filthy humans. Their blood must be spilled at the altar.
Jenn (Mara):Where's the altar?
EJ (Game Master):Promise you let me die.
Jenn (Mara):I'll shove my hand through his chest and grab his heart. I promise.
EJ (Game Master):Take the tunnel to the right when you get to the second pipe, The second pipe. Go through the pipe, and you will drop into the altar chamber. And it's hilarious, apparently. It's super hilarious.
Jenn (Mara):If If if you lie, I'll speak to Desmos himself. Okay. I'll let him die. Okay.
Tay (Melody):Can I yell up to her and search his body for gold? I'll
Jenn (Mara):I'll I'll pat him down and do, like, a body cavity search, see if he's got any good shit.
Mac (Dolion):I'm staying down here.
Jenn (Mara):That moment.
EJ (Game Master):He is 16 gold.
Jenn (Mara):Take it.
EJ (Game Master):You guys are ballers now. Straight up. Go for everybody. Alright. Alright.
EJ (Game Master):So, Machidis, you come through the crevice, and you're standing above, someone you've never seen before who's kind of backed, into a, into a corner looking area in a defensive position. You do see Mara, who you do know over a dead body with her hand inside of his chest. You don't know where Dolian or Melody are, but you did hear Melody's voice scream up, search him for gold. So you're like, you know, they gotta be close by somewhere. Yep.
Blak (Machitis):So I see this guy and I don't know if he's friend or foe.
EJ (Game Master):Nope.
Blak (Machitis):Dude, let me investigate or interrogate.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Jer, you're standing there and some huge dude drops out of the pipe and just starts asking questions. What's your question, Machias?
Blak (Machitis):Who the fuck are you, and where are my friends?
Mac (Dolion):He's muted as hell.
Tay (Melody):He's muted.
Blak (Machitis):Jojo, you're muted.
Joe (Jer):Muted. I sheath my sword and put my hands up, and then I walk towards the direction of the pool. Like, I'm not here Okay. For a battle with you all.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Okay. Alright. So he's just walking this way. Watch out for the hole the Kenjiro fell into.
EJ (Game Master):I'm guessing you still trying to keep your eye
Mac (Dolion):on them, so Yeah.
Blak (Machitis):I'm just
EJ (Game Master):trying to move these things where you guys can see, but
Tay (Melody):okay.
Jenn (Mara):Can I can I So
EJ (Game Master):what do you guys try to see what are you guys doing?
Jenn (Mara):Can I try to see if conjure can I lean over the hole and yell down the? I felt bad. Sure.

Blak (Machitis):Alright. So, I see him put his sword up.
EJ (Game Master):Yep. Yeah.
Blak (Machitis):I am not I am not going to attack. Because I've seen

Tay (Melody):And what I am doing is I have Yeah. Your surveil area is definitely letting you See? So, my loot is back on my back, but I have the, laser lantern out, kind of aimed at, the commotion that's happening upstairs because I'm asking Mara about gold. And, just wanted to see what's going on there. I see I see Machinist, and I say, hey, Machinist, we're down here.
Blak (Machitis):Oh, shit. Okay. Alright.

Jenn (Mara):Okay. Yes. I'm gonna cast animate dead on the, dead snake.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. He's too chopped up to do anything.
Tay (Melody):Damn it.
Blak (Machitis):Well, they only decapitated him.
Mac (Dolion):And we cut the belly open.
EJ (Game Master):Now you guys you wanted to search his guts, remember?
Tay (Melody):And we take scales.
EJ (Game Master):Guts are everywhere.
Tay (Melody):Is there
Jenn (Mara):any other
EJ (Game Master):decapitated, I mean, decapitated to make sure that's scary.
Mac (Dolion):You could bring up the, the dudes I shot with the arrows and shit. I don't know, what they can run some kind of distraction. I don't think it'll be enough though.
EJ (Game Master):The disembodied voice, melody tells you to get out of there.
Tay (Melody):Can we skedaddle to that, like?
Mac (Dolion):Towards the where he said the altar was at?
Tay (Melody):Yeah. Towards the, the second, what is it? The second pipe you said to go to the left and go to the 2nd pipe. Can we just, like, run out there? I because we don't see anything over in that direction.
EJ (Game Master):I mean, what you're doing?
Tay (Melody):I'm I'm asking Julian. Sorry.
Mac (Dolion):No. I am a I'm a big
EJ (Game Master):fan. All off.
Mac (Dolion):I'm I'm a big fan of going the opposite direction of where all those guys are
Tay (Melody):at. Okay. So
Mac (Dolion):Before we get into
Tay (Melody):our ingredients of that, I will look out at Mara and Machidas, and I say, we're gonna head this way. I look up at Jared, and I said and I say, like, I don't know if you're following us or not, but this is where we're going. Good fucking luck. There's shit out there.
Mac (Dolion):It looks like Jared's following.
EJ (Game Master):I'm guessing you guys are heading in this direction?
Tay (Melody):Yes. Mhmm.
Mac (Dolion):Affirm.
EJ (Game Master):Right? Okay. Mhmm.
Tay (Melody):Yep.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. So the whole team is this way.
Tay (Melody):Jer, are you following?
Mac (Dolion):Okay. Oh. Yeah. Fuck. Yeah.
Tay (Melody):Welcome to the fucking party.
Blak (Machitis):Jerry's gonna take him on.
Tay (Melody):While we do that I will use my I will use my passive ability to distract sound because they can't see us, to get them looking in some other direction as we all scurry away.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Nice. Good job. 250 experience points.
Tay (Melody):Locked.
EJ (Game Master):You guys are regrouped. Machias, just so you know, your ability to see in the dark is now faded again. It's back to being whatever it was normally. Got it. I'm gonna so trying to remove this stuff so you guys could see.
Jenn (Mara):That's not working. Okay. Alright.
EJ (Game Master):Well, let's just reveal. Let's just do that because that's easier. Now you guys can see everything, right? Goddamn.
Mac (Dolion):Give him the
EJ (Game Master):Actually, I'm keeping Dolly on up front. I'm keeping kinda your guys' way that you're doing it before. Machidas, you're just gonna take Gengiro's spot, kinda pulling up the rear. Okay. Jer, I don't know exactly where you wanna fit into the group, but Dolan is always first because he can find and remove traps.
EJ (Game Master):You guys have to avoid these areas. You guys can see them pretty much, but you know that's probably where the snakes are coming in and out of. Because not seeing as big as they are, not seeing the 3 other ones that should be in here, they're probably going in and out of these enormous holes in the floor. So as you guys are moving down, Mara, you made an attempt to, contact Jinjiro who fell through that hole, but you didn't hear me, all you heard was rushing water, So you don't know if it's more more of the water can can, you know, basically joins up underneath this this cavern or the sewer, and then, you know, that could be what's dumping out into the the river at Southgate. You know how they say they were pulling bodies out of the river.
EJ (Game Master):So as you guys move south down here, the extra commotion and the extra bodies up in the way has caused a lot of these crystals, these little green crystals in the wall to make a little more illumination, so you could see. Up ahead though, you notice there's pattern like things on the floor. One's dead ahead of you, Dollyon. It's definitely not natural.
Mac (Dolion):I'm
EJ (Game Master):a grab some water and be right back. I could still hear you.
Mac (Dolion):Okay. Based on that, just go ahead and, kinda search investigate. And depending on what I find, I'll roll for my, find and disarm trap. So we're good on search, mate.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. So you know that that is definitely some some form of trap up ahead. Now do you want to move towards it and try to dismantle it or first of all, I'm guessing you tell the rest of the party not to move forward. Right?
Mac (Dolion):Yes. Okay.
EJ (Game Master):So everybody's kinda stopped right here. I believe water is getting deeper all along here. It's hard to see because this picture didn't come through, but there's areas that are darker. That means the water's deeper, and it's moving faster because you guys are heading closer and closer to where it's gonna dump out. But, this spot right here is where Dollyon knows there's some sort of trap up ahead.
Tay (Melody):Nope. Jolion is, experiencing the technical difficulties. He's about to drop out here soon.
Mac (Dolion):Oh, I am?
Tay (Melody):Yep. Because your screen's black. It's gonna drop you out in a second.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Anybody else have anything that they would like to do?
Tay (Melody):And Jolion left.
Jenn (Mara):He's back.
Mac (Dolion):I will, so everybody's halted, I'm going to step forward and attempt to disarm the attack. Okay.
Joe (Jer):Wait. Don't do that yet. Okay.
Tay (Melody):Go ahead.
EJ (Game Master):You have a negative 10%. This one seems a lot more complicated than the other one.
Joe (Jer):Can he can you identify how the track works or what it does if you trigger it?
Mac (Dolion):Would that still be my search investigator or is it, hunting trapping?
EJ (Game Master):It would be your, construction engineering, I think. That's repair.
Jenn (Mara):Engineering construction.
Mac (Dolion):Construction repair.
EJ (Game Master):Sound right?
Tay (Melody):It's construction repair.
Mac (Dolion):Yeah. Yeah. Alright. Is there a, negative, effect on that? No.
Mac (Dolion):On the sit or no? No. Alright. We're good. So 80, I got 71.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. This this is, connected to, like, a keystone situation. So if it's messed with wrong, it's basically helping support this whole tunnel. As silly as it sounds, just that one little piece, but if that's moved in the wrong direction, it it's the linchpin for holding the ceiling above your head. So it could be like, you know, when you're passing through someone's garage and there's, like, traps and danger.
Joe (Jer):Behind or in front of us?
EJ (Game Master):It's in front of Dolian right now. Like, I'm I've tried to oh, where the ceiling will cave in?
Joe (Jer):Correct.
EJ (Game Master):It will cave in this whole area. Now I'll try to mark the pillars that there's a pillar right here. It didn't come through as good. This is a you see how it kind of has lines around it? Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):That's supposed to indicate height. So this was a full pillar. This is a stone. You notice how there's no other real pillars in this passage until you get down here? That means basically from this pillar to this pillar is all gonna cave in.
Joe (Jer):From this from the middle area.
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. Basically, from here to just behind, yeah, just behind a cheetahs. If this is if this doesn't get, dismantled. Now right now, Dolan's pretty sure it's what he's doing is 10 negative 10% to dismantle.
Mac (Dolion):So that puts me at 50. Is there a way so there's no way for us to step around like we we've identified it. There's no way for us to just avoid this. Like, there's no that's the only pressure point we can step on to to get to where we're going to. Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):That's the, you know that it's it's connected to the ground in this area. So is that the trigger point? You're not sure, but that gives you an access to disarm it. Now if you got in the water, you might not hit anything, because like I said, it gets deeper, but it's deeper and faster right here.
Mac (Dolion):Hinder our movement, and these guys are getting up on us. I turned it to team, and I I I gave them those odds. Let them know, you know, I'm 5050 on being able to disable this thing, but, we could for sure avoid it if we, wade in the water, so to speak. And, but, I'm assuming we're not aware of these guys coming up around the corner right now. Correct?
EJ (Game Master):You can hear it. You can't tell exactly where they're at, but you can hear them moving around because they're weapons and armor.
Mac (Dolion):Oh, we yeah. We just you know? It's getting louder. They're getting closer. Yeah.
Tay (Melody):Can we Let's tell where the water is rushing to?
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. It's gonna rush all the way down to here, which is a steeper drop from than what you guys wrap before.
Tay (Melody):And that's how
EJ (Game Master):You know? Okay. But basically like a short small waterfall into a deeper pool. But this is your target, so
Tay (Melody):Mhmm.
EJ (Game Master):I'm gonna have to kinda try to get here, but there's there's pillars and stuff you might be able to grab onto or do you guys have any rope or anything?
Tay (Melody):Yes. We have a rope, and we have a medium grapple.
EJ (Game Master):You might be able to use that in a manner to try to maybe rope something and use it to to pull, like, you know, like, to anchor you as you go past something. You know? It's up to you. What you guys gonna do? Grapple.
Mac (Dolion):We can use that. I don't know how long that's gonna take, how many turns it's gonna take for each of us to, you know, grapple, and then one person at a time go across or if we cannot handle both of us, but that seems like the safer way because like I said, I know I've been rolling good tonight, but I don't want to fucking fuck this shit up, you know. Saying I don't trust my guy, but, it's a lot of pressure on this role.
Tay (Melody):Jheromara, what do you guys think?
Joe (Jer):I think if it's okay with the big man, we tie the rope to him and move down 1 by 1. He should be able to anchor us safely. Yeah.
Mac (Dolion):It wouldn't be
Joe (Jer):move accordingly.
Blak (Machitis):That's true. You talking about me?
EJ (Game Master):That'd be a a fire anchor. Welcome back, Nachita.
Mac (Dolion):Get in the water. The
Blak (Machitis):nerve. The unmitigated gall. I'll do it.
Mac (Dolion):I'm glad you found us getting the water.
Blak (Machitis):Alright. Sure.
Tay (Melody):Alright.
Blak (Machitis):I'll do it. I'll do it.
EJ (Game Master):Who's gonna go first? So Machitus, you're getting a good spot to where you can kinda anchor whoever goes down river first, and then do you just tie it so that guarantees the the whole, maneuver to where you guys can kind of, like, use him to anchor you to drop off right here. So
Mac (Dolion):we go light light is the heaviest, so I don't know
EJ (Game Master):if it's
Mac (Dolion):Mara and Melody. Then based on looking at the armor, I would probably be 3rd and then, our man, Jer, can go. Okay. Next. If there's any objections, let me know.
Tay (Melody):So my only rep question about not having you go first is because, like, how are we going to, take down those traps if there's, like, a trap in front of us?
Mac (Dolion):Well, just when you get to the other side, just don't touch nothing. Like, going in the storage.
EJ (Game Master):Don't be short round. Okay? Don't be, like Yeah. Leaning on.
Mac (Dolion):Don't touch I can't touch anything. Look at nothing.
EJ (Game Master):Don't think
Jenn (Mara):you're about to ask for nothing.
Mac (Dolion):Just sit there and wait till I get there.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. So who's first?
Mac (Dolion):I'll go first to put the meds.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Go ahead and roll the 20 sided die.
Mac (Dolion):Machitus or me?
EJ (Game Master):You. Right.
Mac (Dolion):Red 18.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. You're there. Pull right up and take the rope off, and Machitus pulls it back. Now if anybody fails this role, it'll be up to Machitus to try to hold on to you so you don't go down the current too fast and end up in the waterfall. So who's next?
Blak (Machitis):No pressure, guys.
Tay (Melody):Hold
Mac (Dolion):on. He's gonna have to roll to hold you guys.
Tay (Melody):You know what? I'll go. I'll go ahead and go.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Roll a 20 side guy. Oh,
Jenn (Mara):16. 5.
EJ (Game Master):Barely made it. You you're lucky I rolled a 2.
Tay (Melody):Oh my god.
Blak (Machitis):Alright. We're
EJ (Game Master):good, guys.
Blak (Machitis):Wow. Wow.
EJ (Game Master):That was a good idea. Okay. Next.
Joe (Jer):I'll go. Okay. 5.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. So Jerry is going downriver. Machitus, go ahead and roll the 20 sided die to try to swing him up onto the to the ledge.
Blak (Machitis):14.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Somehow, you did it. Alright. So, Jared, you've made it to the edge. You guys are back.
EJ (Game Master):Mara and Machitus are over here. You hear the sound of fighting, and you hear the same kind of hissing and sound and dying sound from the giant serpent. And then you hear, like, yells and so forth from, the snake men.
Blak (Machitis):Who's left? Mar? Myanmar?
Tay (Melody):Mhmm.
EJ (Game Master):Yep.
Jenn (Mara):Can I just hold on to Mashidas and work with him?
EJ (Game Master):Yep. Good idea.
Blak (Machitis):Do that.
EJ (Game Master):250 experience points. Team is here. Oh, you guys have made it. Alright. For some reason, the snake men are all running the other direction.
EJ (Game Master):You guys can kind of see them, like I said, because the crystals have picked up enough of the, motion and movement to give off more of that ambient light, and they all seem to be, deciding to get the f out of town.
Mac (Dolion):We don't ask questions. We just get the fuck out of here.
Blak (Machitis):Yeah. But you
EJ (Game Master):guys are here right next to the pipe loop.
Mac (Dolion):Unless Barra has Okay. Because I know Barra or Melody wasn't that fast. That'd be on that hearing voices and feelings and stuff. So y'all ain't feeling nothing, y'all ain't getting no same vibe. Mara?
Tay (Melody):First of all,
Jenn (Mara):can I, from my chance to recall where he said the, shrine was?
Tay (Melody):It's at the 2nd pipe.
EJ (Game Master):Through the 2nd pipe, it'll drop you into the shrine. You'll drop down into an area where there's these dark shells these dark shell things, and it'll be, like, been in in in in it, and then the music changes, and you gotta go through the so this pipe is that 1. Do you
Jenn (Mara):guys wanna go in there?
EJ (Game Master):That's what the snake named.
Tay (Melody):Before we go in there, can we, like, search and investigate pipe to see if there's anything in the immediate vicinity of it? Like, anything that's behind it in it.
Mac (Dolion):I want to, use a passive ability, to surveil the area. Okay. You said we were hearing the sounds of death and the other and we see them retreating. I wanna see if Yes. I can perceive if whatever scared them the fuck off is is is now turned its attention towards us.
Joe (Jer):This star is proven
EJ (Game Master):by. Good idea. 250 experience points. That's a good call, man. Good call.
EJ (Game Master):It's a good call. And you live your life straight.
Mac (Dolion):Alright. It's a passive ability.
EJ (Game Master):Something is coming down the way you guys just came.
Mac (Dolion):Oh, what the oh my god.
EJ (Game Master):But you sense nothing beyond this pipe. Something is blocking your senses beyond this pipe. But something is is kind
Mac (Dolion):of rapidly
EJ (Game Master):down that tunnel.
Mac (Dolion):I can't look at it. I can't,
Jenn (Mara):Mhmm. Which
Mac (Dolion):you roll a fucking nail on.
EJ (Game Master):You just feel the threat is coming. Whatever killed everything up in the top of the tunnel
Mac (Dolion):Oh, yeah. It's just coming. Me we're not built for this right now.
Joe (Jer):How hard would it be to trigger the trap from where we're at?
EJ (Game Master):Good idea. 500 experience points from where you're at. If you guys had a powerful ranged weapon, you could hit it. Magic won't do it. It has to be something solid.
Mac (Dolion):I just have normal bolts in my,
Blak (Machitis):I have a throwing axe.
Mac (Dolion):Last time I throw axe.
Tay (Melody):Can't do that.
EJ (Game Master):Error up error. Julian calling you out, man. He's calling you. It's like, you hit this you hit the wrong house last time that you saw.
Mac (Dolion):Hey. You ruined somebody.
EJ (Game Master):Anybody else? Look at your guys' stuff. Check and see what you got.
Joe (Jer):I have a car with pierce arrow, which is, negative 3 to stretch structural integrity.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. So those are your 2 shots, guys. Machitus, you ready? You gonna try to throw the axe?
Tay (Melody):Can we try to do the arrow first before we lose the whole weapon?
EJ (Game Master):Yep. If you want. I mean, it was I gotta
Blak (Machitis):say, it was the latest this is the way it's going.
Joe (Jer):Yep. 4, 4, 5.
EJ (Game Master):Hey. How many, armor peers did it pass away?
Joe (Jer):I have at least 1. Okay. I don't have a number on here, but it does list armor piercers.
EJ (Game Master):Well, cross your fingers everyone.
Mac (Dolion):Good vibes, bro.
Joe (Jer):Oh, there you go. It's a a 9. 9 plus 2. Hold on. Hold on.
Joe (Jer):9 plus 2. Can I can I combo that with an actual, like, pack move?
EJ (Game Master):Yes.
Joe (Jer):No. I don't have one that'll fit that. Roger. Like slides and stuff. So it's, an 11.
EJ (Game Master):No good. Bounces off the ground.
Mac (Dolion):Fuck. And dude's getting closer. Does the dude know about the trap?
EJ (Game Master):It doesn't look like it.
Mac (Dolion):Fucking good riddance. Get them out of here.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. What do you want to do? Flash. You have to defend yourself, Jir. You're just within his sight.
EJ (Game Master):You feel a, double crescent, distance slash comes at you from that direction, Jer. Roll your defense negative 15%. Whatever you wanna do, dodge, block.
Joe (Jer):Yeah. I wanna do, a side step then. So the Okay. Pad just makes it negative 5.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. So negative 5, your dodge?
Joe (Jer):It's 73%. Alright. 32. Alright.
EJ (Game Master):You dodge out of the way. It cuts right through these two pillars. Uh-huh. The ceiling starts to crumble, but whatever it is, uses a a magic and is darted across his back to the opposite side as this collapses. So we use some sort of haste or like rushing move to cross the river and jump on this side as this collapses.
EJ (Game Master):The guys kinda consider it's too it's too far and too dark, like it's not it's dimly lit, so you can't really make out his his features or anything at that range. But you do hear him say something, Jared, that range. I have my phone. I could tell you, but, hey. Send me another message so I can send you I can respond.
EJ (Game Master):So I can respond to the computer, but I can't initiate. I don't know why. Yeah.
Mac (Dolion):My man slices are going through rocks people. I don't know what he's gonna tell you, but,
Blak (Machitis):Running should be part of this plan right now.
Mac (Dolion):I'm trying to get in the warp zone.
Tay (Melody):Do you have an exit plan?
EJ (Game Master):The pipe. Alright. Alright, Mara. You're the one right there, so we'll start with you. What do you wanna do?
Joe (Jer):Can I say something?
Mac (Dolion):Yeah. Go
EJ (Game Master):ahead. Yeah. Go ahead.
Joe (Jer):I don't know anyone's names. Right?
Tay (Melody):No. Because you didn't introduce yourself. Oh, except for me. You know my name. Yeah.
Tay (Melody):Because I shouted out my name too.
Joe (Jer):Right. Right. Right. Right. Right.
Joe (Jer):Well, I I yelled to the guy that I'm not who you're seeking. I'm not Doleon.
Mac (Dolion):Hey. I highly suggest we get the really the fuck on up out of here, Let let us go.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. He yells back from over there. He says, well, then your death will be a simple one unlike his.
Jenn (Mara):Okay. I'll cast acid blast and several arteries on him. So acid blast has about 350, and several arteries, he can't really dodge. He has, plus 300 damage with, 2 to 3 arteries severed with, no healing times 5 turns.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. The acid blast, do you see him take a couple steps back? The sever arteries hit, but what you see is a lot of it looks like, crimson dust comes off of him.
Jenn (Mara):And you I'll, I'll I'll do, I'll roll my chance to enthrall.
EJ (Game Master):Okay.
Jenn (Mara):He's got a negative 20% to resist times half his turn.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. He says I should have known that from you, Mara.
Jenn (Mara):Fuck you, asshole. Oh.
EJ (Game Master):He's like, the only thing that saves you is your father. The rest of them I will put him around.
Blak (Machitis):Yo. Who the fuck is this dude?
Tay (Melody):I don't
Jenn (Mara):know. I'll use my, passive ability for, bloodlust and step towards him.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. You detect no blood even from the last or this several arteries.
Tay (Melody):Damn it.
EJ (Game Master):So your bloodlust fails, and he says it won't be that easy.
Mac (Dolion):It's almost as if this man has no heart.
Jenn (Mara):I'll take another tips step towards them, and, I'll, produce my claws and bangs. I'll tell him, you need to leave. My father is here.
Mac (Dolion):Yeah. Use your use your privilege.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. He just stands where he's at and sheaths his swords. He says that you won't be with them forever, Mara.
Jenn (Mara):I'll speak to you later. My father is here. You can go and see him more than I do.
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. Alright.
Tay (Melody):So whose turn is next?
EJ (Game Master):Melody, it is your turn.
Tay (Melody):Alright. I'll look at Dollyon, and I'll ask him if he can go first for any traps in the, sewer.
EJ (Game Master):Let's get a move on. Let's move
Tay (Melody):this government. And I will have the light behind him to make sure that he can see, but I suggest that we all continue through this tunnel, to get to the altar so we can try to find Leilia and Alina.
Mac (Dolion):She gets no complaints out of me, and I am going through that tunnel.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Roll your chance to detect traps. Secret. Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do. Sorry.
Mac (Dolion):Find disarm trap. 60%. There's no, there's no environmental thing that's, giving me a negative towards mine. Hey. Here we go.
Mac (Dolion):17, we good.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. There are no traps in this pipe.
Mac (Dolion):Alright. Y'all come into the, Mushroom Kingdom with your boy or no?
Tay (Melody):I'm right behind you.
Blak (Machitis):You ain't even gotta ask me. I'm gone. I'm with you.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Mara, do you stand behind until they go through the pipe?
Jenn (Mara):I do. I'll nod to him as we leave.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Jerry, are you standing back by or are you going through the pipe?
Joe (Jer):Is this start this way?
EJ (Game Master):Yes.
Joe (Jer):Oh, yeah. Yeah. You did say that. Yeah. Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Alright. He nods back to you as you go as you back up towards the pipe, and now you guys are on the next section. You guys have finished the sewer. Now as you crawl through the pipe, you guys notice that the pipe leans out, and you could see down into this, into this area right here.
EJ (Game Master):But it's not something that you could come back up to to get out, if that makes sense. You're gonna have to find another way. Mhmm. This won't be the same exit route. Okay.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. So you guys all kinda drop down here. There's a stairwell. Oops. Now this area is is lit, but it you can you can see well.
EJ (Game Master):You don't see any torches or anything on the walls, but even though there's rubble and stuff present, you guys, are surprised at how, well kept it is and how sturdy and, in comparison it is to the other the other cathedral area that you were in prior. You don't notice any presence of any people. So,
Mac (Dolion):but I
Jenn (Mara):don't wanna see mister Eileen.
EJ (Game Master):Farewell down into a temple.
Joe (Jer):Is that what we hear in the cave?
EJ (Game Master):Vistar thinks
Tay (Melody):this is all clear.
Joe (Jer):We're like He's
EJ (Game Master):just laughing. Vistar thinks it's hilarious. Alright.
Blak (Machitis):Something told me to go to that bridge.
Mac (Dolion):When I did the, find the techs, how far of the area inside of that that cover? Just this entrance way that we're looking at right here?
EJ (Game Master):The threat detect? Oh, the trap to to find trap?
Mac (Dolion):When I was outside of the Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):There's no Before
Jenn (Mara):we start, do you guys wanna take, like, a little
EJ (Game Master):A short, break?
Jenn (Mara):Yeah.
Blak (Machitis):Do do you guys wanna take,
Jenn (Mara):like, a little intermission really quick?
Tay (Melody):I'd love to take a 5 minute break so I can stand up.
Jenn (Mara):Just like a 5 minute. Is that cool?
Blak (Machitis):Okay. Yeah. My dogs are, trying to go outside right now.
Jenn (Mara):Okay. Before we start the next part. Okay. Just just real quick. Okay.
Jenn (Mara):I'll be right
EJ (Game Master):back. As you guys are entering the chamber, can you guys make the walls and stuff here? I know it's kinda Yeah. So I don't know how what what's your guys' attack pattern here? There's 1 century here that you guys can see.
EJ (Game Master):I'm trying to find the other guy that was, you guys had fought at the gate or down on the street before. You guys remember him?
Tay (Melody):Oh, yeah. Yeah. What the Yeah.
Jenn (Mara):The the
EJ (Game Master):knives at you guys and
Tay (Melody):Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):Kinda remember him to put him on there, but I don't remember him.
Tay (Melody):Oh, no. That's terrible. Please don't write
EJ (Game Master):him down.
Jenn (Mara):Do it.
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. So I know I know you missed him, and it's like Melody and him are just buds. They need to hang out.
Mac (Dolion):We missed him. We missed him as much as he missed Melody with all those daggers.
Jenn (Mara):Action slash. Hack and slash.
EJ (Game Master):I can't find it, though, man.
Mac (Dolion):I'm gonna
EJ (Game Master):have to put someone in to fill in for his place. It's just a placeholder. So
Jenn (Mara):We won't know the difference.
EJ (Game Master):Yeah.
Tay (Melody):There's only the 3 of us. What's close enough?
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. Close enough guy. Close enough guy.
Mac (Dolion):As long as he doesn't do dancing daggers.
Jenn (Mara):Don't give him ideas. Jesus.
EJ (Game Master):Tell me. Okay. So you guys kinda get the get the lay of the situation there. So have a bat if you have a battle strategy or whatever, let me know.
Tay (Melody):Can you take the thing off the screen that you have?
EJ (Game Master):Oh, okay. Yeah. Hold on just a second. I had to throw, a doozledorf in there to place hold for that other dude.
Jenn (Mara):Mhmm. Steffendorf?
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. Shaka Khan.
Jenn (Mara):I can't even remember this. Mumra.
EJ (Game Master):There we go. We'll just use this guy. Okay. We'll use this guy. There we go.
EJ (Game Master):There we go. This is what's up.
Jenn (Mara):Okay. Oh, okay. Shit.
EJ (Game Master):So this is your guys' team.
Mac (Dolion):So I didn't detect them a dish. Okay. That's no. No.
Tay (Melody):Because you're just looking trash.
EJ (Game Master):Magic through. Now he did do his, like, awareness thing, but trust me, your your humble host is not gonna let her lair be, probed. Because, I mean, she wouldn't want the whole city to know that she's downstairs.
Tay (Melody):Like I was Oh, yeah.
EJ (Game Master):Shit. This is where I live.
Mac (Dolion):Hello. I'm childish. I'm so Welcome.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. So you guys know where you're at, what what y'all wanna do. Oh, do you want me to put something where the prisoners are at? So you guys can know about bringing the people you came looking for?
Tay (Melody):Yes. Mhmm.
Mac (Dolion):That would be very helpful.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. I'm just gonna use these for the prisoners right now because,
Mac (Dolion):I just feel bad and really just didn't look like Greg. We're dragging you to all of our shit, bro.
Tay (Melody):Come on. No. He came along because he wanted
Blak (Machitis):Thank you.
Mac (Dolion):Here comes in the nudging hangs out in a pipe
EJ (Game Master):like, yeah, they they just killed that thing.
Mac (Dolion):Let me get to know. Oh shit. Alright. We're all running together. It's just like
Blak (Machitis):Right. The danger.
Jenn (Mara):The danger.
EJ (Game Master):Well, regardless, you guys know the only way out of this place is through here. So Yes.
Mac (Dolion):They're all alerted to our presence as well. Right? No. No.
EJ (Game Master):Like I said, some of them are just sentries standing around. These 2 in this hallway, this human guy just walking. He's one of the cultists who recognize their outfits from the, attack on the duchess. No. They didn't attack the duchess.
EJ (Game Master):Remember? They took the women off the entertainment stage. The mercenaries attacked the duchess, which you think I mean, it seemed like more of a distraction when you you're like, I don't think that that was actually the goal. So trying to make these guys less huge. Snake guys, you guys know already.
EJ (Game Master):But yeah. The cultists are just the the ones you saw at the, the rap the festival. Kidnapped the 2 women from the stage that Melody was performing on.
Mac (Dolion):Mhmm.
EJ (Game Master):So and then this dude led the cultists, and he was the one that came with some cultists to attack you guys at the gate when you guys were trying to escape the town, trying to, kill you guys which almost went their way for a minute there.
Mac (Dolion):Oh, he was almost successful.
Jenn (Mara):Rude. Rude.
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. So, like I said, this guy these 2 are sentries, and he's kinda heading in this direction. So, he's just kinda standing around. Now you guys do remember some of the other ones were in the out or out in the other section. There's a good 6 of them that didn't get murdered, so they may be showing up later, the snake men that ran off.
EJ (Game Master):So they may come later. So you might not wanna wait around too long because you might get more cultists, more snake men, more patrons of this wonderful church here known as the, new life eternal.
Mac (Dolion):Yep.
EJ (Game Master):Just whatever you can give when the basket comes around, just put it in there. Contributes to the bills, Stefan. Oh. Oh, bones, blood.
Mac (Dolion):So are we rolling, for order? Are we rolling with the same order we had in the the catacombs over there? The the the sewers, if you will.
Tay (Melody):We didn't have a plane with Mesheges, so I think we need to roll again.
Mac (Dolion):Yeah. Let's all roll with order.
Jenn (Mara):K. Alright. Roll initiate. Okay. Tens?
Mac (Dolion):Yep.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Just the 10. Oh, yes.
Jenn (Mara):I have 7.
Tay (Melody):1.
Jenn (Mara):Yep.
Mac (Dolion):2. 6. That was in.
EJ (Game Master):Yes.
Blak (Machitis):0 counts as 10. Right?
EJ (Game Master):Yes. Alright. Then 10. So no. Because, machis
Jenn (Mara):what'd you get, Jen? 7.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. So Machitus, Mara, Melody,
Mac (Dolion):Dalian. What'd you get here? Right? Because I got it.
Jenn (Mara):Melody's next and Dolian in chair.
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. Okay. Yep. Alright. So we're good.
EJ (Game Master):That's you guys' attack point or attack order, but now we kinda gotta know, do you guys have a plan? Are you working together? What's you guys remember the goal here was to, say, find the 2 missing women, yeah, which are here. Unfortunately, this we can't go through here because of the wall, But
Mac (Dolion):We don't need it. Much easier.
Jenn (Mara):So I I could try You
EJ (Game Master):guys know they're over here.
Jenn (Mara):That I can try to
Blak (Machitis):take out
Jenn (Mara):that wall. So listen, I I can try to take out that wall because I have a seismic strike that might be able to make it brittle. Machidas. That maybe yeah. That maybe Machidas can come in after maybe I I kind of, like, I can kinda damage the structural integrity of it.
Jenn (Mara):Maybe you can it might make it easier for you, Machitus, to hit it. So I don't know if you want me to try that before you take your action. Like I hit my seismic strike, but it's gonna alert them that we're here because
Tay (Melody):it's
Blak (Machitis):not exactly quiet. Yeah. I'd rather them not know right now that we're here. So I can stealth it at 65%, see if I can
Mac (Dolion):I was just gonna use, my passive for stalking, where I move silently, maintain distance, stick to the shadow type stuff? And try to see, if I could take out these dudes silently, and, kind of let us creep in a little bit further before we you know the more people we take out before we're detected, I think the better. So
Jenn (Mara):Okay. I agree with that. Okay. But, Caitlyn, what do you since you're first, how can I back you up because I'm second? So what do you what do you wanna do that I can support you with?
Jenn (Mara):Because I can't.
EJ (Game Master):Facts.
Blak (Machitis):Let me because my passive stuff.
Jenn (Mara):So, I mean, we don't necessarily have to sneak because we have Dolian that's gonna that can sneak and stay in the shadows and do crit hits.
Blak (Machitis):Do you have anything that
Jenn (Mara):can do, like, a area of effect or an area hit? Or do you you wanna do, like, line of sight and, like, do a direct hit to somebody? Or
Blak (Machitis):Yeah. I'd rather line of sight that guy right in front of me. I have a throw in acts. I can hit him with it.
Jenn (Mara):Okay.
Blak (Machitis):So let's do that. Because either way, we're gonna alert them that we're here after that. Because if you do line of sight, I can follow-up with
Jenn (Mara):an AOE of area effect and I can hit them with, like, hail of stones because I might be able to hit the one, like, just behind him.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. Let's do that. Alright. I'll go immediate. You go you go behind me.
Jenn (Mara):Alright. I'll follow-up the real. Go ahead.
Mac (Dolion):Can I get in the shadows first before y'all do that and they just turn and see a group of, like, 5 people chilling? Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):Yes.
Jenn (Mara):You disappear like a fart in the wind.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. Jer, Melody, y'all y'all got any thing y'all wanna do? Because they're already they're already moving. So if if you if you guys wanna move and get in position, that's
Tay (Melody):No. I'm just gonna stand right behind you guys to, like, be able to help you guys with the whatever, or it might be, like, a tracking sound or, What
Mac (Dolion):what are you guys' e EPMP at? Have y'all been tracking? Is it low? Because, Melody does have that capability to kinda refresh it for you guys.
Jenn (Mara):I am.
Joe (Jer):I'm good right now.
Blak (Machitis):I'm good. I haven't used any so far.
Tay (Melody):Just why I'm just staying with everybody else's support?
Jenn (Mara):I got about 700 left on both.
Mac (Dolion):Yeah. I'm at 850, so I'm good.
Blak (Machitis):Actually, hold on. I have my bed.
Tay (Melody):If I start playing any music, does that mean that they're gonna, like, people can hear it other than the Oh. The couple of us?
Jenn (Mara):Do you have, like, something that can be akin to snake charming? Like a melody or something?
Tay (Melody):I don't think
Mac (Dolion):it makes it here except for
Blak (Machitis):Well Mama's the head.
Jenn (Mara):Yeah. But those those guys are are some sort of, like, a snake.
Tay (Melody):See what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. If there's like
Jenn (Mara):some sort of like snake charming, because you know how they do that with cobras. I wonder if she has, like, some sort of, like, melody or, like, a lullaby or something.
Tay (Melody):So I do have something kind of like that. Did it?
Blak (Machitis):Mhmm.
EJ (Game Master):Tidbit, you guys are in a chamber that has something that they consider their like a god, you're probably not gonna enchant them more than their presence or their god. Does that make sense?
Mac (Dolion):Yeah. Because we can't penetrate
EJ (Game Master):Like going into, you know, a Catholic church and trying to, you know, overpower the the presence of Jesus or something. It's not gonna probably
Jenn (Mara):Before before we start, can I can I roll my monster creature lure?
EJ (Game Master):Sure.
Jenn (Mara):The the the big snake lady? Okay.
Tay (Melody):Mhmm. What have we got?
Blak (Machitis):Do you wanna do you wanna what are you trying to do with her?
Mac (Dolion):She's just trying to get information.
Jenn (Mara):I just want information.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. Okay.
Tay (Melody):If she
Jenn (Mara):has any weaknesses, if she does not like light, if she doesn't like sound, if she's, like, protecting, like, her eggs or whatever the fuck. Oh, why is she here? Oh, my god. I got it.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Let me bring her up, and I'll tell you all I let her know.
Jenn (Mara):That's right, bitch. Good stuff with you. Sorry.
Mac (Dolion):Don't talk to Eric like
Jenn (Mara):that. I I didn't I I met her. I don't see that to my husband. Come on.
Mac (Dolion):Give me information, bitch. Woah.
Blak (Machitis):My god.
Tay (Melody):Oh, that's not
Jenn (Mara):what I said.
EJ (Game Master):That's what I heard.
Mac (Dolion):Okay. So what secret code.
EJ (Game Master):You know that that is Vistar. Oh. Vistar is the god or goddess of deception, an old an elder god that's no longer really worshiped, but in most places, it was a forgotten religion for a long time. So you don't have enough information because it's been so out of, like, how to practice. Does that make sense?
EJ (Game Master):Like
Tay (Melody):Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):Be, like, trying to study up on, you know, like, one of the more obscure Egyptian gods. You'd be like, they I don't know. You know what I mean? There's not a lot of information if you're just trying to read up on, like, not You're gonna read up on, like, Seth's cousin Jeff. Nobody really knows.
EJ (Game Master):You know what I mean? So So you do know that it it it's an elder god. Usually with elder gods, what or any kind of deity that's, in that that powerful of a range, they're one thing to probably not try to go for or waste time with is critical attacks, unless you have a weapon of immense, magical power, but they usually have to be brought to a certain point or there's a special a significant way in which they have to die. Does that make sense?
Jenn (Mara):Do we still have Homeboy with the White Fire?
EJ (Game Master):No. That was the guy that, Machitas had with him that he's pretty sure died.
Jenn (Mara):Who has his dagger or sword?
EJ (Game Master):You guys left it
Tay (Melody):in that
EJ (Game Master):that trunk.
Mac (Dolion):Behind the blacksmith thing.
EJ (Game Master):Yep.
Mac (Dolion):Fuck. Because it was too heavy to carry.
EJ (Game Master):Yep.
Jenn (Mara):Okay.
Tay (Melody):Now I do have that dagger that we got from the snake's belly that has that magical impact. We just don't know what.
Jenn (Mara):Can't does anybody have any spells that can do white fire? So look look look at your spells and see if anybody has white fire or holy magic. Anybody.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. The guards turned back around because he's no longer walking in that direction. This guy's come to this corner to watch.
Jenn (Mara):Anybody help me move?
EJ (Game Master):Around, so
Mac (Dolion):you Can you take these dudes out and then do a, holy magic check? Or because we could just kill these dudes with, like, knives and shit right now before, you know, they alert other people that
EJ (Game Master):Might need to start clearing the field before you worry about the the the fallen god.
Blak (Machitis):Yeah. Let let's clear the field first.
Tay (Melody):Okay.
Jenn (Mara):Alright. Do you wanna go with our original plan?
Blak (Machitis):Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Alright. Alright. So we're
Blak (Machitis):on 2 tens. Right?
EJ (Game Master):No. You're throwing your ax?
Mac (Dolion):I told you 20.
Blak (Machitis):Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're right. You're right.
EJ (Game Master):Gotta roll 20. Yeah. You're gonna throw it at this guy. Right?
Blak (Machitis):Yeah.
EJ (Game Master):Okay.
Blak (Machitis):Yeah. 13.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. That hits. How much damage do you do?
Blak (Machitis):So the damage is bonus damage is 15. So it was a it was a hurled attack, 100 damage.
Mac (Dolion):What damage does your action do looking at your weapon? 160 100.
EJ (Game Master):5. A 165. Alright. He is still alive. He's now turning around to see what the fuck.
EJ (Game Master):And this guy is like, what the fuck? So finishing, you still have more action. What do you wanna do with cheese?
Blak (Machitis):I still got one more. So, I'm going straight on the offense of what I'm
EJ (Game Master):okay. You wanna hit this guy?
Blak (Machitis):Yep. Leaping hammer fist.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Roll over 20.
Joe (Jer):Go 14.
Mac (Dolion):Captain Kirk.
Tay (Melody):Alright.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. He tried to dodge and failed, so he is dead.
Blak (Machitis):Copy.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. This guy drew his sword, then you're out of actions. So now, Mara, it's your turn.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. I am going to cast with my wand.
EJ (Game Master):I'm talking with
Tay (Melody):them on. I'm going
Blak (Machitis):to cast,
Joe (Jer):Talking with them on.
Jenn (Mara):I'm gonna cast a flame whip and try to take his legs out from under him.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Good idea. Make him a mobile. Alright. Alright.
EJ (Game Master):How much damage does that do?
Jenn (Mara):That
Blak (Machitis):How far away is he from me?
Jenn (Mara):Is he more than 25 meters?
Blak (Machitis):No. 5, 10, 15, 20 feet.
EJ (Game Master):He's at most 2, 4, 6. He said 6 meters away.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. I do about, 800 damage.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. He's dead.
Jenn (Mara):Oh, Really?
EJ (Game Master):Right. Nice. Dollyon, I'm moving you in the shadows. Okay? Because you can't do anything right here, so I figured I'd move you to where you can actually start to kinda move around because this this room keeps you from going anywhere.
Mac (Dolion):So I was like No. That's fine.
Blak (Machitis):Question, but in one The the
EJ (Game Master):thief assassin or the rogue assassin is not gonna hang out where he can't go anywhere. Right.
Jenn (Mara):That was actually only one action.
Blak (Machitis):Right. Right. I let you know the question.
Tay (Melody):Go
Blak (Machitis):ahead. Did any of this alert any of my anybody else?
EJ (Game Master):No. Not yet. This guy will be soon because he's walking in the area.
Blak (Machitis):Okay. So
EJ (Game Master):that's he's now I gotta roll to see if he notices anything. Oh, yeah. He's gonna notice real quick here. Take about more.
Jenn (Mara):Oh, I got something ready
EJ (Game Master):for you,
Jenn (Mara):boo boo.
Blak (Machitis):Oh, I got
Jenn (Mara):it's not quiet, though.
EJ (Game Master):You can pass and let let's see if maybe Dolian could take him out or Mara can take him out or even Jared. It depends on what they're you know?
Blak (Machitis):Can you take them out?
Mac (Dolion):Looking at my body count, I got 11 bodies so far, so I'm pretty sure I could take them out.
Jenn (Mara):Because the only thing I can do oh, wait. I can do that. I'm gonna cast, Or I can cast sever arteries.
Mac (Dolion):Is that silent enough?
Blak (Machitis):Yeah. I mean, hopefully it
EJ (Game Master):out. Burgundy? Are you doing that or not? You said that kind of as a question, so I trust you.
Jenn (Mara):I'll cast drown in blood. That's pretty silent.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Alright. How much damage does that do?
Jenn (Mara):Joan and blood does 200 per turn, 7 to 8 turns.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Yeah. Alright. He's falling down and grabbing his throat because he's drowning in blood, but he's he's probably gonna survive it. So because I rolled his resistance.
EJ (Game Master):He's still taking damage and can't scream because he's got blood in his throat, but, alright. Now it's Go quiet. Who's turn is next is Melody?
Tay (Melody):Yes. Alright.
EJ (Game Master):Do you have any distance attacks besides your loot? A distance weapons or
Tay (Melody):No. Because I just have a sword and a knurks.
EJ (Game Master):You wanna try to go up there and kill him?
Jenn (Mara):Shink him.
EJ (Game Master):Shink. Shink. Shink. Shink. Shink.
EJ (Game Master):Shink. Like, just like that. Shink. Shink. Shink.
EJ (Game Master):Shank. Re redo the scene from American Me and just it's happened like 3,000 times.
Tay (Melody):Yeah. So I'm gonna try to do my arbalest thrust. Just standing on one leg, lunge and impale, plus 10% critical.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Go ahead. Go for it.
Tay (Melody):And I'm gonna use my sword for that. So it says the damage is 1 d 12, so I need a 12 set up.
EJ (Game Master):Yep. But you gotta roll 20 set up first. I gotta roll
Tay (Melody):it in. Oh, alright.
EJ (Game Master):So rolled him. 17. And roll high.
Tay (Melody):Oh. 17.
EJ (Game Master):There you go. Any particular spot you wanted to aim for?
Tay (Melody):His his head. Okay.

Tay (Melody):Oh, 2 tens. Shoot.
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. Critical will be 2 tens. No problem.
Tay (Melody):Wrong. 81.

Jenn (Mara):Transfer critical. Shoot.
EJ (Game Master):Combat, right side.
Tay (Melody):Chance for critical is, 30 5 plus 10 is 45.
EJ (Game Master):Alright. Does the sword give you any kind of bonuses to critical? Probably not enough for 81 to work.
Tay (Melody):5.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Roll to hit him again.
Tay (Melody):Another 20 sided die?
EJ (Game Master):Yep. Mhmm.
Jenn (Mara):K.
Tay (Melody):13.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. He's dead. I mean, he would have died because he he guys he was already drowning in blood, and then he just did a bunch of damage again, but it's better to make sure that he's not gonna scream out or anything for you guys.
Tay (Melody):Right. Alright. So And then do I have, like, I have, like, another one turn. Right?
EJ (Game Master):Yep. Yep. One action. Yes.
Tay (Melody):And playing any type of tune will alert them of our position. Yes.
EJ (Game Master):You probably wanna save that for 1 thing kickoff.
Tay (Melody):Yeah. I was just
EJ (Game Master):It's gonna probably kick
Tay (Melody):Well, I was thinking that, like, rejuvenate being, like, our EPMP. But
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. You can just do that if you want.
Tay (Melody):I mean, it was just to, like, help, and that's why I'm, like, I'm not trying to do anything outwards. I'm just trying to play, like, a soft, like, little melody for, for
Jenn (Mara):Let me you wanna try
EJ (Game Master):it, and then I'll roll the chance to chance to hear it, like, negative half because you're trying to go quiet, but What
Tay (Melody):do you guys think? Do you guys need it?
EJ (Game Master):These are both different.
Mac (Dolion):Where you guys is at with the I had to give them fee.
Tay (Melody):Mara Machidis.
Blak (Machitis):I kinda don't wanna let them be alerted to where we are right now.
Tay (Melody):What you think?
Blak (Machitis):That's just me.
Tay (Melody):Do you do you need the e p m p?
Blak (Machitis):Yes. I do. But
Mac (Dolion):I would say wait till the next round.
EJ (Game Master):Yeah. Wait.
Mac (Dolion):To see what the end is.
Tay (Melody):You guys have a whole nother set of, turns that you guys are gonna do before I can even do a tune.
Mac (Dolion):Now if it gets bad enough, we can pass our turn and it gets back to you faster.
Blak (Machitis):Yeah. Okay. I'm with that too.
Mac (Dolion):Got this bitch in the middle of the Alright.
Tay (Melody):Cool. So with my turn, I'm just gonna go back behind Michitas and Mara.
EJ (Game Master):Okay. Alright. Dolian, it's your turn.
