[0.0s] Previously on Dumbgeons and Dragons.
[3.2s] And this blue orb appears and you are back and you look to Mirabar and you see plumes of smoke coming up from the city.
[11.4s] Thea sits down on the ground and pulls out a joint.
[14.3s] Yeah, guys, this is a lot. What the hell is going on?
[18.3s] I look at Flynn's face and I throw him a joint.
[22.4s] This is much needed.
[24.0s] Out of Flynn's mouth, Bort begins to scream.
[29.2s] He said I wanted to come back. I did not want to come here with you.
[34.2s] But if the choice was that or die, isn't this a better choice?
[37.9s] Bort is gone and Flint is back.
[39.8s] Flint, where did you go? What did that feel like? What's going on, buddy? Tell me.
[43.5s] It does not feel good when that happens, I will tell you that much.
[46.7s] And as you look to the east over the top of another large hill,
[51.0s] you see the remaining soldiers of the Axe of Mirabar marching towards Mirabar.
[59.1s] Guys, they haven't made it there yet.
[61.1s] Crimsbane probably isn't controlling them yet.
[63.3s] As you fly more towards the army, they see you and they yell up to you.
[69.0s] If you don't want to be shot from the sky, you should probably come down now.
[73.8s] What's your name, sir?
[74.6s] I am Commander Hammerstryker and I am the commander of the Axe of Mirabar.
[78.8s] Hammerstryker? Yeah.
[80.3s] Where do you think Crimsbane is?
[83.0s] The most fortified location in the city is likely where you were when you were in the break.
[89.4s] Thea, you are searching rooms and you hear a startled yell.
[95.1s] And as you become visible to Osric, he swings down at you with his axe.
[100.8s] Where have you guys been?
[102.7s] Around.
[104.2s] Hey guys, he's in here.
[105.8s] How long have we been gone?
[107.4s] Uh, you guys have been gone for three weeks.
[111.4s] What?
[112.1s] What?
[113.2s] That was unexpected.
[114.5s] Yeah.
[115.4s] Okay.
[115.9s] All of you hear a static charge and you hear what you think is Salazar.
[122.3s] Tibby, where are you?
[123.8s] We just got your signal back.
[124.9s] Ah, you stupid man.
[130.3s] Welcome to Dumbgeons and Dragons.
[131.9s] This is a fifth edition D&D actual play podcast.
[136.0s] I'm your Dungeon Master, Russ More, and with me today is Amy More, who plays Thea Amastasia.
[142.3s] Hey there.
[142.9s] And Carla Johnson playing New Laura Moonbrook.
[145.3s] Hello.
[146.2s] And Flint Firebeard, who was played by Tom Laird.
[151.6s] Yes.
[153.1s] Sorry to interrupt.
[154.4s] I like I like the switch because now that means I have a friend in real life who's a dwarf.
[159.6s] And that sounds amazing.
[160.8s] Hooray!
[161.4s] Everybody wins.
[163.1s] How are you guys?
[165.8s] Good.
[166.5s] Doing well.
[168.6s] Eloquent as always.
[171.2s] Excellent.
[172.3s] This is good.
[173.0s] Good banter we've got going on here.
[175.4s] We wasted it all before we started.
[177.2s] We're really vibing on the banter right now.
[179.4s] It's pretty.
[180.0s] I always feel like Russ's innocent questions are like a trap for us if we say the wrong thing.
[185.9s] How are you guys doing?
[187.0s] Good.
[187.7s] Roll a D20.
[190.1s] Yeah, see?
[190.8s] And then maybe we're not so good.
[192.2s] There's something about not even I was going to say the format, but it's not because we were just chatting before we started recording,
[200.2s] but something about like the second we say we're playing that we absolutely forget how human communication works.
[208.2s] Like we cannot talk to NPCs.
[211.0s] We can't even talk to each other, our actual friends in real life.
[216.7s] It's a weird thing.
[217.6s] The story checks out completely.
[219.8s] Sounds about right.
[220.6s] It's an interesting barrier you guys have put up there.
[223.0s] I mean, there's a real fourth wall thing going on.
[224.9s] But yeah, as long as you commit to the awkward, awkward interaction, it's good.
[230.8s] Yeah, my life has just been a series of awkward interactions.
[234.7s] This is just a recorded, awkward interaction.
[240.5s] Well, good.
[241.3s] Let's if all the awkward banter is done for now, we can we can jump right on in.
[248.6s] So we left off last time and you had figured out, Nularaaa, that you appear to have a communicator that was left in your your arrow quiver.
[259.7s] And it appears to be Salazar speaking on the other end.
[262.8s] We're going to take a quick step back from there.
[266.0s] We're rewinding just a little bit.
[267.5s] So, Flint, you guys have just found Osric and everybody's talking amongst themselves.
[273.2s] But you yourself have been kind of quiet and concentrating, trying to fight Bort for control of your body since you returned from Enan.
[283.4s] But in this moment, your mind is quiet and you find yourself being able to relax for the first time since entering, really, the library of the dead.
[294.0s] You seem to ignore the conversations around you.
[297.8s] You hear them, but you're not really paying attention to them.
[300.2s] You're reveling in the silence now upon you when you hear Bort in your mind very quietly say,
[308.4s] So I think we might have got off on the wrong foot.
[314.2s] Well, we were kind of thrust together without anyone's consent.
[320.2s] Yeah, yeah, that happened.
[322.6s] And I feel like I've been treating you a little little poorly.
[327.1s] I mean, I've been screaming like a child in here.
[330.3s] I've noticed.
[331.4s] Yeah, and I had a moment of contemplation when I thought maybe maybe we could help each other.
[337.8s] I like the sound of this.
[339.1s] I recognize that I was angry and I've never been known to take things calmly before.
[344.6s] I mean, Ralph, Ralph had been working with me on that up until I had my head chopped off, obviously.
[350.5s] And I want to I want to help not hinder anymore and hopefully find a way to separate us
[357.6s] and get me another body.
[360.7s] I mean, I know you guys said you would help with that.
[364.0s] I just feel like I wasn't really receptive to that.
[366.3s] So instead, I just tried to, you know, annoy you until I took over your body.
[371.6s] I'm sorry.
[372.8s] It was what you thought was right.
[374.2s] It's OK.
[375.4s] We do know some fancy magic types in a different town.
[380.2s] We just haven't had a chance to go there yet.
[383.0s] So when we do, hopefully they'll have some sort of solution to our problem.
[389.0s] That sounds good.
[389.8s] That sounds good.
[390.3s] So what I'm going to do is, you know, just kind of hang out in here and, you know,
[396.6s] offer my two cents if I if I if I have it, if you think that's cool.
[400.7s] Definitely.
[401.5s] That's good.
[402.2s] And you know what?
[403.0s] I think that I'm able to channel and just as he's saying this,
[406.9s] you hear the communicator catch in and it kind of cuts him off mid-sentence.
[412.9s] Right before the communicator going to Thea now.
[415.7s] I'm sorry.
[416.3s] Is this was this Flint like mumbling to himself
[419.3s] or is he having a conversation in his head?
[421.0s] He's having a conversation in his mind.
[422.7s] OK.
[423.3s] So you guys see him be like, oh, yeah, he's he's kind of just,
[427.2s] you know, stoically standing there kind of deep, deep in thought or zoned
[431.4s] as you guys appear him.
[433.0s] Thea, you got the Book of the Druids and you read through it.
[437.1s] And it made you think differently about how being a druid should work.
[443.5s] You've been thinking about this book since you got back.
[445.8s] And this has kind of been going through your mind
[448.2s] throughout the last last couple days, couple days for you.
[451.7s] And to this point, you've kind of used your druid ship
[455.3s] as more of a way to benefit yourself and make yourself money
[463.3s] in terms of selling your your wares, your weed products to to certain people.
[469.3s] And you've been a little bit almost hesitant to truly commit
[473.4s] to true druid ship to this point.
[476.9s] You've used your learned skills to help your business grow, so to speak.
[480.9s] But that seems to be mostly all it's been to you.
[483.8s] More of an enhancement of your nature.
[487.0s] Maybe your family growing up kind of held you back
[491.0s] or maybe on your path to understand your nature.
[493.9s] You were lost on your desire to make profits of your skills.
[497.8s] Maybe a little bit.
[499.0s] Whatever the reason, after having read the Book of the Druids,
[503.0s] which you acquired from the Library of the Dead on Eden,
[506.9s] something inside of you suddenly clicks in this kind of same moment
[512.1s] as Flint is having this internal conversation.
[516.2s] And you get it.
[517.4s] All of your skills and connections to nature itself become clear to you.
[524.2s] Your connection to your skills seems more focused now.
[527.5s] And your spells seem like second nature now.
[530.2s] And you feel inside of you, your wild shape churning and begging for freedom.
[538.1s] Every animal you have ever seen begins flooding to your mind all at once.
[543.1s] You see bears and eagles and tigers all trying to help you enhance your abilities.
[552.3s] You look down at your equipment and you suddenly feel a distaste,
[560.2s] a severe distaste for the metal things you have.
[565.1s] You drop your spear, you drop your daggers,
[568.6s] and you look down at your new armor and where...
[572.5s] New armor!
[574.0s] Where before you overlooked its metal build,
[577.6s] it doesn't repulse you quite the same as your spear and your other weapons did.
[582.8s] You analyze it a little more closely.
[586.2s] And you feel a magical aura coming off of it.
[590.7s] You can't quite tell what the enchantment or the aura is,
[595.3s] but you feel like it's not truly metal.
[598.6s] It just appears metal.
[600.2s] So it, to you, you don't feel the need to get rid of it.
[604.9s] Oh good, I just got it.
[606.7s] It's a lot of hassle to get that armor.
[608.2s] It was.
[608.7s] I know.
[609.5s] So to everybody else watching you, Thea, they just see you drop your metal weaponry.
[615.7s] Druids kind of maintain their use of scimitars,
[618.6s] but your daggers you drop, your spear you drop.
[622.3s] And then both you, Thea, and Nulara,
[626.7s] in this moment, just before the communicator clicks in,
[629.8s] you pause and you feel waves of energy from the world course through all at once.
[637.8s] And what moments ago felt calm is now suddenly darker
[643.7s] and seems like an energy is tainted or evil.
[648.4s] And these people you are fighting, the Cult of the Dragon,
[651.5s] you sense that they have just moved a step closer to their goal.
[656.0s] You can't sense exactly how close they are
[658.6s] or what they have just done, but something in the very essence of nature itself,
[664.2s] something evil is coming and is closer.
[671.1s] And then the communicator kicks in.
[673.6s] Tibby, Tibby!
[674.9s] Oh, where are you?
[676.9s] Nulara, you search through your quiver and you find
[679.8s] a small kind of cogwork communicator
[683.8s] that appears kind of the same build and make as what Tibby is made of.
[689.8s] And the sound is coming out of that.
[693.0s] Do you want to roll, just roll a d20 for me?
[697.4s] Uh, that is a three.
[699.4s] Nice!
[700.9s] So I throw it in the river.
[705.6s] What is this?
[706.2s] This is evil.
[707.1s] Did you tie it up first?
[708.6s] Yes, important question.
[710.1s] Thank you, Flint.
[711.2s] Use your intelligence modifier there.
[715.6s] Well, that's a one, so that's a four.
[717.9s] So it really made a difference.
[720.2s] So you look at this device and you don't have an idea of how to potentially make it work.
[727.0s] Guys, I can't figure out how this works.
[729.3s] Can one of you?
[730.1s] Do one of you?
[731.1s] I don't know.
[731.8s] I miss Tibby.
[733.0s] How do we work this?
[734.2s] Meanwhile, the communicator says,
[735.5s] Tibby, where the hell have you been?
[737.9s] Answer me!
[738.8s] Is that?
[739.9s] Is that Salazar?
[741.1s] It sounds like Salazar and I'm holding this thing and like just fumbling it in my hands.
[745.8s] Like I don't know how to...
[747.4s] Salazar!
[748.5s] Just holding it, yelling at it.
[749.9s] I don't know how it works.
[751.1s] I rolled an 11.
[752.6s] Thea, you come over and you look at it and there is a button on the side.
[758.6s] Does it say on?
[759.9s] No, there just appears to be a button or a switch that...
[764.2s] Like a walkie talkie.
[765.6s] You are able to depress and it, the static that's coming through, it stops.
[772.7s] Hey, try this.
[774.4s] Hello?
[775.0s] I let the button go.
[776.0s] From the device, he says,
[780.1s] Is that?
[780.7s] Is that Thea?
[781.9s] I press the button again.
[783.4s] Who's asking?
[784.2s] This is really quite a good conversation, obviously.
[788.2s] This is Salazar.
[791.0s] Where's Tibby and where have you guys been?
[793.4s] Uh, you know, that's like a super long story.
[801.8s] Guys?
[802.3s] We like transported to some different place and now Flint has another dude in his head
[809.8s] and everything is totally crazy.
[812.6s] Also, we were gone for three weeks and now Tibby's gone too
[816.2s] and an evil army is taking over a town.
[819.5s] So where are you at?
[822.0s] Oh, ask him what he's wearing.
[827.0s] Says...
[827.6s] She ignores me.
[828.7s] No, I'm not asking that.
[829.5s] Well, you're the one holding it.
[830.8s] I assumed you just said that while you were still holding it.
[832.6s] Oh, I thought you were holding it and I was just pressing the button.
[835.1s] No, I don't know.
[835.7s] That was my understanding.
[836.8s] I was just jumping in.
[837.8s] I like that better.
[839.2s] You are holding it and Thea just pushing, just pushing the button.
[843.6s] That's what I imagined.
[847.5s] He says,
[848.4s] What do you mean Tibby's gone?
[850.4s] I'm back at the guild.
[852.1s] Three...
[852.9s] Yeah, I guess that timeline lines up.
[854.8s] You guys have been kind of disappeared for a little more than three weeks
[858.4s] as we lost you before we sent Tibby to try and find you.
[862.7s] Okay, army taking over.
[865.6s] You guys just kind of make danger up as you go, don't you?
[869.2s] It just kind of follows you around.
[871.2s] I think this one literally like this danger
[873.4s] just jumped out at us in the middle of the street.
[875.6s] Like I don't think this one was our fault.
[877.7s] Interesting.
[878.6s] Okay.
[879.8s] Yeah, I know it doesn't sound right to me either.
[882.4s] We probably did find it.
[884.0s] Hey, what just happened?
[886.2s] Did something just happen?
[887.8s] I felt something.
[889.9s] Well, I don't know what you're talking about.
[894.6s] What do you mean something just happened?
[896.6s] So I'm like looking at Flint and Thea
[899.4s] because I just felt this crazy wash of power or whatever happened.
[904.2s] So I'm looking at them like,
[905.9s] guys, did you just feel that like something has changed?
[912.2s] I didn't feel anything.
[913.7s] Yes, I felt it too.
[915.0s] Something is definitely happening.
[916.6s] Well, we've been tracking the cult a little bit.
[922.0s] They're doing some pretty bad stuff around.
[925.1s] We haven't been able to track down
[927.0s] where exactly they've been kind of collecting yet.
[931.4s] But pretty much entirety of Faerun is falling apart,
[940.2s] whether it's the cult or it's just rogue groups
[943.3s] popping up in cities and claiming them for themselves.
[946.6s] They've taken the cult as kind of a call to action
[951.6s] to just allow evil to run rampant.
[953.8s] Okay.
[954.4s] Well, that sounds really bad.
[955.9s] Yeah, it's not good.
[956.7s] We're here in Mirabar.
[958.5s] Half of the army has been enchanted.
[961.2s] Somehow through their armor by an evil wizard.
[964.2s] Any tips on some kind of disarming?
[968.2s] You're a smart guy.
[969.3s] Got any tips and tricks?
[971.9s] Disarming, enchanted armor.
[976.4s] I mean, it sounds like something magical.
[978.2s] I can get the wizards on it over here
[981.5s] and just see if they can't figure something out.
[984.2s] But we might need more information as to
[987.1s] who's doing the spell and how they're doing it
[992.2s] in order to shut it down.
[995.8s] It's an elf wizard named Primsbane.
[1000.3s] The name sounds familiar.
[1002.9s] I feel like he's been someone who's been trying
[1004.9s] to track us down for quite a while now.
[1007.7s] He found us and he thinks that we can lead him
[1011.3s] to this big powerful energy source.
[1016.0s] Yeah, don't do that.
[1017.9s] But we don't really know what it is
[1019.5s] and why he's referring.
[1021.1s] So I'm pretty sure he's just referring to us
[1025.7s] as the guild.
[1027.5s] Okay, don't come home.
[1028.6s] Yeah, don't come home yet.
[1029.8s] Feel safe.
[1030.2s] So have they turned the entire Axe of Mirabar?
[1034.4s] Because that would be bad.
[1035.7s] Well, like half?
[1039.0s] Half of the army is outside of town.
[1041.0s] We've warned them not to come into town
[1043.1s] because as soon as they do,
[1044.6s] something activates in their armor
[1047.4s] and they become like zombies or automatons or something.
[1053.3s] They can't control themselves anymore.
[1056.6s] So they know that,
[1058.5s] at least the ones that aren't already turned,
[1060.4s] but there's still a lot of them.
[1063.7s] Yeah, definitely.
[1066.5s] If you're sure it's in the armor,
[1068.3s] it's going to take us a little while,
[1069.8s] but we might be able to arrange to get new armor sent
[1074.5s] to at least some of the other members of the Axe of Mirabar
[1079.4s] if they're holding formation
[1082.3s] so that maybe they can come in and help you.
[1085.6s] So yeah, if you're certain that that's what it is,
[1089.0s] we can have that sent.
[1090.0s] Like I said, it'll take a bit,
[1091.3s] but that's something as opposed to nothing right now.
[1095.8s] Okay, I look at Thea and Flint like, right?
[1100.4s] Am I remembering right?
[1102.4s] We know for sure it's the armor.
[1103.9s] Yeah, no, it is for sure the armor.
[1106.3s] Their armor has some crazy mixture of alloys and metals
[1110.4s] that is specific to them
[1112.5s] and they're the only ones that got affected by this.
[1116.0s] Yes, Alizar, anything you can do to help
[1118.6s] because there's a lot of them.
[1121.3s] We can't fight them with three of us.
[1123.4s] Although I think the better thing to do
[1125.4s] is to focus on fixing the enchantment
[1129.7s] if we can break the spell somehow.
[1131.8s] By murdering Primsby.
[1133.4s] Yeah, we don't wanna like,
[1135.8s] A, we can't fight a thousand army members
[1139.1s] and B, we don't wanna kill all those people.
[1141.8s] So if there's a way that we can save them
[1144.8s] and you can get the wizards working on some sort of fix,
[1148.6s] I think that's our best option.
[1150.3s] Absolutely, I will do that.
[1153.4s] If you figure out anything more that can help us do that,
[1157.9s] let me know, but I'll get them started
[1161.3s] on researching Thelonious
[1163.0s] and kind of some of his schools of magic
[1165.4s] and what he might be able to acquire for himself
[1168.4s] and how he might be doing this
[1169.8s] and get you guys some armor
[1171.4s] for the other members of the army
[1173.8s] and hopefully they can come in
[1175.4s] and at least try and wrangle or subdue
[1179.4s] some of the other,
[1180.9s] some of these zombified ones that you're talking about.
[1183.6s] You've got the communicator now,
[1184.9s] so you should be able to just dial us back up.
[1189.0s] Great.
[1190.0s] Also, Tibby, I think went home?
[1193.8s] Yeah, Tibby went home.
[1194.7s] Went to a place that looked like the place
[1197.0s] where she was from.
[1199.5s] Tibby went home?
[1201.3s] Tibby's home was destroyed.
[1203.4s] Uh, we came back, different portals.
[1210.3s] I don't know.
[1210.8s] It sure looked like she went home.
[1211.9s] She went somewhere different than us.
[1213.8s] Well, that's interesting.
[1215.3s] We had found some portal magic,
[1218.3s] which we obviously used to try and get you out,
[1220.2s] but yeah, Tibby's world was more or less destroyed,
[1226.1s] which is why Tibby was working with us.
[1228.2s] So maybe, huh.
[1230.7s] Could Tibby have gone back to a different timeline before?
[1235.2s] Well, you said you guys were gone for three weeks,
[1238.2s] but did it seem like three weeks that you guys were gone?
[1241.5s] No.
[1242.1s] No, it was one day.
[1243.4s] I have a feeling like you guys jumped forward in time
[1247.0s] and Tibby might have gone a long ways back in time.
[1252.1s] Well, hopefully, did he say he'd come back if he could?
[1256.2s] Yeah, I, yeah.
[1258.4s] I think that's exactly what he said.
[1261.1s] Wanted to learn more about the portals.
[1263.3s] Okay.
[1263.7s] Well, yeah, hopefully, hopefully we can figure out more.
[1266.6s] We've got some more research and stuff to do on portals.
[1269.0s] And now, I guess, time jump.
[1272.3s] Oh, busy day.
[1273.8s] Okay, I'm going to go get started on all of this stuff here.
[1277.3s] You guys.
[1278.3s] Maybe Doc Brown will be around to help.
[1280.2s] Tibby, Tibby, we got to go back.
[1282.6s] It's your kids, Tibby.
[1284.2s] It's your kids.
[1285.9s] Can we please have an NPC soon that is Christopher Lloyd
[1291.4s] because that sounds amazing.
[1293.0s] That would be really good.
[1295.0s] I'll make a note of it.
[1296.5s] Guys, he's legit writing that down.
[1298.2s] Okay, see you on the flippy flops, Alizar.
[1300.4s] Yeah, good talking to you.
[1301.4s] We'll talk to you soon.
[1302.3s] I miss you.
[1307.9s] He snuck it in right as he was hanging out.
[1309.9s] I love it.
[1312.2s] So guys, feel like the world's coming to an end.
[1316.6s] Not really any help from the guild on this one right away.
[1321.1s] Thoughts?
[1323.4s] What should we do?
[1324.6s] Let's find and murder that evil dark elf bastard.
[1329.4s] Yeah, that sounds like a plan.
[1330.5s] I like it.
[1331.6s] Let's do that.
[1333.4s] And we do that.
[1335.0s] End of episode.
[1336.2s] Excellent.
[1336.6s] We win.
[1337.1s] Good work, guys.
[1338.2s] We did it.
[1338.6s] Nice.
[1339.8s] Hammer striker says, well, yeah, are we going in through the tunnels or do we want to?
[1346.2s] Because we said that, or Osric said that they've got a whole bunch of people
[1351.3s] outside the front door.
[1352.6s] And yeah, I think the tunnels would probably be the best idea.
[1356.9s] Yeah, I'm pretty sure we settled on the tunnels.
[1359.0s] Yeah, at least the most funneled if there are, you know,
[1363.1s] if there is somebody coming for us anyways.
[1366.1s] Funneled tunnels?
[1367.3s] Funneled tunnels.
[1368.2s] Let's head to the funnel tunnels.
[1369.9s] We're going to put the fun in funnel tunnel.
[1372.6s] Is that anything like funnel cake?
[1374.2s] Because that is delicious.
[1375.2s] That sounds great.
[1376.3s] OK, so that was a no on the funnel cake?
[1380.4s] No, no funnel cake.
[1381.4s] No funnel cake.
[1382.2s] OK, all right.
[1383.3s] It's disappointing.
[1384.0s] Osric says, sorry, mate, the funnel cake place, it went first.
[1391.0s] The zombie guys, they hit it really hard.
[1393.4s] That's how it always happens.
[1394.9s] I know, I know.
[1395.8s] I went there first, too, and it was just a mess.
[1398.7s] Flour, eggs, powdered sugar everywhere.
[1405.4s] Come on, list more ingredients.
[1408.2s] Baking soda, I'm sure.
[1411.0s] Maybe some magic powder to make it taste so good.
[1415.2s] Cinnamon, Ross, it's cinnamon.
[1416.7s] No, he calls cinnamon magic powder at home, too.
[1418.9s] It's kind of a weird thing to happen.
[1422.3s] You don't tell me what I'm saying, cinnamon.
[1425.8s] It's a real sticking point.
[1427.0s] It is about dusk now, falling on the city.
[1431.6s] We got to head to these tunnels, you guys.
[1433.8s] I say no waiting.
[1435.4s] Yeah, I agree.
[1436.3s] Only murder.
[1440.3s] Well, there's your episode title.
[1442.4s] No waiting, only murder.
[1444.1s] I was going to go with funnel tunnels.
[1446.6s] He did write it in quotation marks.
[1449.7s] I'll see how the episode pieces together.
[1453.4s] Because we're all rested up, right?
[1455.9s] Everybody should have full everything.
[1457.8s] Tunnels, let's do it.
[1460.2s] Let's go to them.
[1461.0s] Guys, I'm going to show you some amazing shit after.
[1463.9s] Just wait, just wait, just wait.
[1467.3s] That sounds awesome.
[1469.0s] I feel something.
[1473.6s] After this immediate problem that needs to be solved,
[1477.9s] we should probably figure out why it felt like,
[1480.9s] I don't know, all the energy in the world
[1482.8s] shifted a little bit eviler.
[1486.5s] That seems like that should be on the to-do list.
[1488.9s] So that was real weird and real bad.
[1491.7s] But right now, we got a wizard to murder.
[1495.3s] And murder him we shall.
[1497.5s] And we skip gleefully towards the tunnel
[1499.8s] and our task of murder.
[1503.0s] Whistling a nice murdering tune.
[1505.0s] Exactly.
[1505.8s] You head out of the safe house there
[1508.9s] and you go out into the street
[1510.7s] and you're kind of sticking to the shadows
[1512.8s] and the sides of the street.
[1514.6s] And Torgar and Osric lead you back to the door
[1520.8s] that leads down into the tunnels.
[1522.6s] And now you're back down in there.
[1525.1s] And the tunnels in this area are about 10 feet wide.
[1530.6s] So enough for two people to walk side by side.
[1533.0s] And about five, five and a half to,
[1536.5s] you know, five and three quarter feet tall.
[1539.5s] I crouch.
[1541.8s] So anybody who needs to crouch is probably crouching.
[1544.6s] And they're all very dry and stone built.
[1548.8s] But when you get down into this first set of tunnels,
[1553.4s] you hear somewhere very faint within the tunnels.
[1558.0s] A very reverberated thud.
[1561.9s] Very consistent as you're walking in here.
[1565.6s] They're very muted at first.
[1568.2s] And you begin walking through the tunnels
[1570.9s] and checking corners as you go.
[1573.7s] And you are walking for about 10 minutes or so.
[1577.8s] You're on the north side of the city.
[1579.8s] And as you're walking, this thudding gets a little louder.
[1585.7s] And Torgar tells you,
[1587.1s] we're going to have to go take the tunnels under the river
[1591.2s] to the other side of the city where we think Thelonious is.
[1597.0s] Shouldn't be a problem, but that's where we're going.
[1599.5s] And he takes you and stops you around a corner,
[1603.9s] tells you to hold back as around the corner,
[1607.1s] he says and whispers,
[1609.0s] looks like there's some zombie soldiers around the corner here.
[1613.4s] I don't think they saw me,
[1615.0s] but it looks like there's about four of them.
[1617.3s] And that's kind of the way we need to go.
[1620.5s] How do you feel about incapacitating them
[1626.2s] in order to get through?
[1629.0s] Well, if we can, we should probably try.
[1631.8s] I've dealt with some undead stuff before
[1633.8s] and usually you can't quite incapacitate them,
[1636.7s] but we will do our best.
[1639.1s] If it has to happen that we have to kill them,
[1643.7s] then that's what we have to do.
[1644.9s] Those are the words I was looking for.
[1648.0s] Well, we get sneak attack anyway, right?
[1649.7s] We're still invisible for five more minutes or something.
[1652.6s] Yeah.
[1653.2s] So you guys get sneak attack.
[1655.4s] So you guys kind of all attack at once
[1658.5s] because you are concealed and hidden
[1661.0s] and they don't know you're there.
[1662.1s] So the sneak attack,
[1663.3s] you just tell me what you three each want to do.
[1665.8s] There are four zombie soldier guys
[1669.5s] and we'll say that you three
[1673.0s] kind of take the lead on this quick attack here first.
[1677.5s] All right.
[1678.2s] I'm going to run behind one of them,
[1680.1s] get on my hands and knees
[1681.6s] and then New Laura is going to shove them over me.
[1689.4s] So we're just going to play pranks on them for a little bit?
[1691.8s] All right.
[1692.2s] Yeah.
[1693.3s] Either way, if that's what you want to do.
[1695.0s] I mean, one of you has got to get
[1696.1s] in front of them somehow though.
[1697.4s] So that's going to be interesting.
[1699.1s] Well, also, because we can't see each other.
[1702.3s] So how will I know when he's in position?
[1705.5s] Well, you guys can see each other.
[1707.5s] Because you all have the same spell on you.
[1709.6s] Imagine like the cone of silence
[1711.7s] and everyone inside the cone can hear each other.
[1714.2s] I think we're like in a cone of invisibility
[1716.6s] where everyone inside your invisible bubble
[1718.6s] can see each other.
[1719.7s] And I mean, we've been kind of treating it
[1721.1s] as invisibility, but I read the spell again.
[1722.9s] It's not really an invisible spell.
[1724.6s] It's more like a super buff to your stealth spell.
[1727.3s] So you're like in the shadow.
[1729.2s] We've been treating it like an invisibility spell.
[1731.3s] So I'll keep doing that more or less,
[1735.3s] but you guys can still see each other.
[1738.3s] Yeah, we just have like super stealth and death.
[1742.8s] Yeah, it makes you super sneaky and shadowy.
[1745.7s] People can't follow our footprints or whatever.
[1747.9s] Exactly.
[1751.1s] OK.
[1752.2s] Basically, we're all wearing Kavoth's shade cloak.
[1755.8s] Yes.
[1758.6s] Exactly.
[1759.2s] All right, so we'll say that the Pass Without a Trace
[1761.7s] will kind of wear off after the sneak attack.
[1764.8s] So tell me what you want to do
[1766.9s] and then we'll roll attacks.
[1769.1s] How many?
[1769.5s] There's four.
[1770.6s] There are four of them.
[1772.2s] I aim my Produce Flame at one of them.
[1776.8s] OK.
[1777.5s] So we're attacking, right?
[1779.0s] We're like, well, yeah, you're just going to
[1780.5s] because all three of your attacks
[1782.0s] are going to kind of happen at the same time
[1783.7s] to get sneak attack to get a sneak round.
[1786.7s] OK, that's what I'll be doing.
[1788.1s] I'm going to, as best I can, get behind
[1792.8s] one of these zombo types
[1794.6s] and just try and beat them in the back of the head
[1797.8s] with my handle of my axe.
[1800.5s] So not the blade.
[1801.4s] So I'm not trying to kill them.
[1803.1s] I'm just trying to take them down.
[1804.8s] OK.
[1805.3s] All right.
[1809.0s] And you, Laura?
[1810.9s] This is also my plan.
[1812.2s] I'm just going to hit one in the head
[1814.0s] with the butt of flametongue to try to incapacitate them
[1819.0s] and then maybe tie them up or something.
[1822.8s] Sure.
[1823.4s] Hoping those flames can take out a couple,
[1825.1s] but I imagine they can because
[1827.2s] I don't have like an incapacitate kind of spell.
[1830.7s] You got to you got to damage them somehow
[1832.5s] to incapacitate them, right?
[1833.8s] Truth.
[1834.7s] So roll attacks for everybody there.
[1839.2s] You're just producing flame.
[1840.6s] So what's the what's the
[1842.6s] And we have advantage on these, correct?
[1845.2s] Yes.
[1846.1s] So you roll two d20s and take the better.
[1848.8s] Five feet.
[1849.4s] 22.
[1850.6s] So that's a 23.
[1852.5s] What's your what's your normal damage on your sword
[1857.0s] and your axe?
[1858.3s] Normally two d12 plus four.
[1861.0s] OK.
[1861.4s] So roll a one d10
[1864.1s] just because you're using the butt of it.
[1865.6s] And then New Laura.
[1868.0s] Part of my damage is fire.
[1869.1s] So I'll take that out.
[1870.2s] So two d6 plus two.
[1872.1s] Just do one d6.
[1873.4s] I add six damage, Russ.
[1874.8s] OK.
[1875.4s] Five and then seven if I'm adding that plus or whatever.
[1880.1s] Sure.
[1880.4s] Yeah.
[1880.7s] Flint and New Laura, you sneak up behind them handily with Pass Without a Trace still on.
[1884.9s] And you hit both of these zombified dwarf soldiers, the base of the skull,
[1891.3s] and knock two of them prone.
[1893.4s] And Thea, you quickly produce flame on the backs of these other two
[1898.9s] and they take the damage.
[1900.6s] But turn around and seem more or less unfazed by it.
[1907.4s] But swing towards you both.
[1910.2s] Roll for initiative.
[1911.7s] Oh, nat 20.
[1913.0s] Why did I waste it?
[1916.2s] Because it's an initiative roll.
[1917.7s] That's what we always do.
[1918.3s] That's the only time we get 20s, I think.
[1920.6s] Plus your modifier.
[1922.0s] 21.
[1922.6s] Seven for me.
[1923.7s] 14.
[1924.2s] OK.
[1924.6s] So Thea, you're up first.
[1926.3s] Of course I am.
[1927.4s] Thea decides to do that one more time.
[1932.3s] So I'm going to produce flame and try to hit those two again.
[1935.7s] Sure.
[1936.1s] Four.
[1937.0s] So Flint and Nularaaaa, you have now kind of ducked down and out of the way of Thea's flame,
[1942.6s] which she erupts again from her hand.
[1945.8s] And these zombies take another four damage.
[1950.2s] Now it is their turn.
[1952.1s] Two of them are knocked prone.
[1954.4s] They are going to stand up and swing towards Flint and Nularaaaa, who are closest to them.
[1964.1s] The one swinging at you, Flint, doesn't do very well.
[1967.8s] That's a five.
[1969.6s] He's swinging with his hammer.
[1971.4s] Excellent.
[1972.2s] And that's a critical miss.
[1974.6s] So the zombies both stand up and awkwardly and clumsily swing down.
[1980.8s] And the one who critically misses on you, Nularaaaa, actually trips himself up and he's prone again.
[1988.7s] The two behind them, they walk forward and kind of step push past the other two.
[1995.0s] One of them swings at Flint for a 19.
[1998.0s] And the other one swings at Nularaaaa for a seven.
[2002.2s] So I think Flint hits there and he swings down at you, Flint, for one bludgeoning damage.
[2009.5s] Whoa, guys.
[2012.6s] There's the all eyes in the end to it.
[2014.7s] Should we go?
[2015.5s] Do we need to back out through the funnel tunnel?
[2018.0s] Need to run away.
[2018.8s] I don't think I'm going to be OK, but we'll try it.
[2021.9s] Nularaaaa, you're up next.
[2023.0s] OK, well, the first guy I attacked is laying down and then another one attacked me.
[2028.7s] Yes?
[2029.5s] Yes.
[2030.2s] OK, well, I'm going to attack him right back.
[2033.7s] But again, I'm just trying to disarm him, not murder him, unless he keeps fucking with me.
[2042.4s] That's a 25.
[2043.9s] 25 will hit.
[2044.9s] What weapons do they have?
[2046.3s] They are holding war hammers.
[2051.0s] It's really more challenging when you're trying not to kill someone.
[2056.3s] We're just going to say that you are trying to incapacitate them.
[2058.6s] So once they hit zero, they will die.
[2063.6s] We'll see what happens once they hit zero.
[2066.3s] Unless you tell me that you are actively trying to chop one of their heads off,
[2070.3s] we will say that you are trying to incapacitate.
[2073.2s] OK, well, maybe I'll use my lance then because it is not sharp, right?
[2079.8s] It's more of a bludgeoning instrument.
[2083.6s] I don't know.
[2084.1s] You had a lot of things skewered on there at one point.
[2085.7s] I did.
[2086.4s] There is some small piercing damage on it, like if you stab with it,
[2090.5s] but the majority of it is not.
[2092.5s] So I'm just going to try and bonk him upside the head.
[2096.2s] The old classic bonk upside the head, which will get him.
[2100.2s] Sorry, let me just find that die.
[2101.5s] I don't use it that often.
[2104.2s] Uh, 11 plus 3 is 14, damn it.
[2108.3s] So that guy is knocked down to the ground and appears to be unconscious.
[2114.6s] Flint, you have two zombies attempting or kind of piled in front of you there.
[2120.3s] You see Nulara swing her lance and knock one down to the ground.
[2124.3s] It appears unconscious.
[2125.7s] And now it's your turn.
[2126.7s] OK, yeah, I guess I'll try and incapacitate the one that's prone.
[2132.8s] Let's say 14.
[2134.1s] He's prone, so you get advantage.
[2137.0s] 14 doesn't hit, but yeah.
[2139.5s] Oh, well, that's much better.
[2140.6s] 23.
[2141.2s] 23 will hit, yeah.
[2142.6s] 8 damage.
[2143.4s] He is hit, but still looks conscious there.
[2147.9s] All right, well, let's second attack.
[2150.8s] That one's an 18.
[2152.2s] 18 will hit, yeah.
[2153.7s] Excellent.
[2154.6s] And 4 damage.
[2156.6s] On the same one, he is still conscious.
[2162.0s] So now it's Torgar and Osric's turn and they can't really seem to get by.
[2167.4s] So they are just going to ready their actions.
[2170.6s] And if something, if one of you was knocked down, they will be ready to go next.
[2176.4s] Thea, your turn.
[2177.8s] So Flint is swinging the butt of his axe down on the prone one.
[2183.6s] He has two other zombies right in front of him who are able to attack,
[2189.2s] and Nulara has taken one out.
[2191.4s] OK, I move in a way so that Flint isn't blocking the two.
[2197.7s] And I produce a thorn whip.
[2201.1s] So I'm going to thorn whip one of them, I suppose,
[2206.5s] which means I need to make a melee spell attack.
[2209.7s] So I need to roll a d20, yes.
[2212.2s] I don't use this very often.
[2213.4s] Here we go.
[2215.4s] 15 plus, is there a plus 8?
[2218.2s] Spell attack bonus, yeah.
[2219.3s] All right, so 23.
[2221.0s] 23 will hit.
[2222.0s] So this vine comes out and wraps itself.
[2225.3s] And I can pull it 10 feet closer to me,
[2227.8s] but I was thinking about pulling it to the side and like trying to pull them,
[2232.4s] because this isn't a large area, is it?
[2234.6s] Is the width?
[2235.4s] About 10 feet wide.
[2236.9s] So they are, yeah, they're in kind of the middle of the hallway.
[2239.8s] So instead of pulling toward me,
[2241.4s] I was going to whip them to the side against the wall.
[2246.2s] Yeah, it'd still come towards you, but you can kind of angle it.
[2249.6s] Angle it so that he whacks against the wall.
[2251.0s] Is that any extra wall damage?
[2253.5s] Thorn damage and wall damage.
[2254.6s] You get 2d6 damage for 2d6 piercing damage.
[2259.8s] I do?
[2260.6s] Yeah.
[2261.1s] Germans are well known for their wall fighting ability.
[2263.9s] Of course, right?
[2265.0s] Yeah, 2d6 piercing damage.
[2267.8s] And yeah, you're ramming them into the wall, so give it another d4.
[2271.7s] Six plus three is nine damage.
[2274.8s] Nine damage.
[2275.4s] So you wrap your vines around and they dig into its skin,
[2280.3s] and you pull him into the wall with a huge thud,
[2283.6s] and he takes all of that damage and is now past Flint and Nulara
[2287.3s] and more directly in front of you.
[2289.5s] Okay, which probably maybe means that Hammeh and Ostrich can get into this
[2297.1s] action because he's closer to us.
[2298.6s] Okay, cool.
[2299.4s] That seemed like a good idea.
[2300.5s] That worked out.
[2301.2s] Torgar sees this and he is going to take his action.
[2305.1s] His hammer has been covered.
[2308.7s] I'm trying to say how you just haven't really seen it,
[2311.7s] but he pulls the covering off of his hammer,
[2315.3s] and it isn't like a standard war hammer.
[2318.4s] It is a solid piece of like mined ore,
[2324.6s] and he pulls that out and swings at the zombie that you,
[2330.2s] Thea, have just pulled towards you and hits him.
[2333.5s] That's a 16, and he gets two d8 plus two damage.
[2339.4s] He incapacitates the zombie that you have pulled towards you,
[2344.5s] and now it is the other two zombies' turn.
[2346.9s] The prone one stands back up and swings at you,
[2350.7s] Flint, for a 15.
[2354.3s] Not good enough.
[2355.3s] The other zombie swings at you,
[2357.0s] Flint, and that's a 15.
[2359.8s] So he misses as well.
[2361.2s] So there are two zombies still active and now both standing.
[2366.6s] Nularaaaa, you see Thea pull one past you and Flint
[2379.8s] and into a wall,
[2380.8s] and then Torgar strike it down until it's unconscious,
[2385.2s] and now it is your turn.
[2387.0s] Both swing wildly at Flint,
[2389.1s] but you get to take an action now.
[2391.0s] Excellent.
[2391.6s] I'm going to remember to take both attacks this time.
[2394.2s] And Donnie's, too.
[2395.0s] We skipped Donnie.
[2396.3s] Oh, yeah.
[2402.7s] It is.
[2403.3s] Welcome back, or welcome to The Adventure
[2405.9s] if this is your first episode.
[2407.3s] This is episode 16 of Dumbgeons and Dragons,
[2409.9s] titled No Waiting, Only Murder, a.k.a. The Funnel Tunnels.
[2414.1s] If this is your first episode, welcome.
[2416.2s] It certainly is a great time to jump on board,
[2418.1s] but I would recommend catching up on the previous episodes
[2420.2s] and we've made it easier for you in a couple different ways.
[2423.0s] What you can do, one of two things.
[2425.0s] You can go back to episode one and just start from the beginning.
[2428.8s] There's 15, at least 15 hours of great content, great goofs.
[2432.8s] Some of the first couple episodes, I'm not going to lie,
[2435.0s] a little shaky, but if you push through, it gets much better.
[2438.3s] Last week, though, we released a recap episode.
[2441.6s] I know, we were thinking, right?
[2442.9s] We want you to get on board right now.
[2445.0s] So you can go listen to that recap episode.
[2446.6s] Then you're at least caught up to where we are now.
[2448.9s] And then you can go forward with us
[2450.5s] and then you can choose to go back
[2451.9s] and listen to those first 15 episodes,
[2454.0s] which lots of great goofs,
[2455.3s] lots of great adventure, highly recommend it.
[2457.5s] How's the episode sitting with you?
[2459.0s] Would love to hear your thoughts.
[2460.2s] We're trying out some new things these last couple episodes
[2462.9s] to bring some new depth to the adventurers.
[2465.0s] And trust me, those new things carry right on through
[2467.8s] to the end of this episode and beyond.
[2469.3s] So make sure you listen right on through till the end.
[2472.9s] We've seen a couple nice bits of feedback
[2474.7s] and comments these last couple of weeks,
[2476.2s] and I wanted to share with you.
[2477.7s] On Twitter, at oldschoolcm tweeted,
[2480.6s] from one DM to another DM,
[2482.2s] sweet move with Lent in episode nine
[2483.9s] of the Dumb Dragon cast.
[2485.1s] The players are starting to get paranoid.
[2487.0s] Hashtag D&D, hashtag evil DM.
[2489.0s] That's what you want, right?
[2490.0s] Have the players checking every door, window, corner,
[2492.2s] and NPC for a potential trap?
[2494.2s] I thought it was fun.
[2495.2s] Thanks for pointing that one out at oldschoolcm.
[2497.8s] We're really happy that you are continuing
[2499.2s] this journey with us.
[2500.0s] We've seen some wonderful growth of the show,
[2502.4s] both on social media and in episode downloads.
[2505.3s] We're happy and thankful that you are enjoying the show
[2508.1s] and continuing on this journey with us.
[2509.6s] That's all I've got for now.
[2510.5s] The next episode in our adventure will be available
[2512.8s] July 12th with episode 17.
[2515.1s] So let's get right back into the funnel tunnels
[2517.4s] for a little more murder.
[2519.4s] We'll talk to you in a couple of weeks.
[2520.8s] Have fun and make sure you get those entries in.
[2522.7s] We are bad at this game.
[2532.9s] So I'm going to do the lance obnoxious
[2537.6s] swat upside the head.
[2538.8s] I feel like this happened in a movie once
[2540.7s] and it was very insulting.
[2542.0s] They were actually doing a horse duel lance lancing
[2546.7s] and instead of trying to actually hit him,
[2548.4s] he just smacked him upside the head
[2550.4s] to really prove how much better he was.
[2552.8s] It's probably a night's tale.
[2554.0s] I was just thinking that.
[2555.4s] I was just going to say the one with Heath Ledger.
[2557.3s] Yeah.
[2557.6s] That's what I'm picturing.
[2558.7s] So that's probably it.
[2561.1s] That is a 26.
[2563.8s] 26 will hit, yeah.
[2565.6s] So he gets a six damage.
[2571.6s] And that one is now appears to be unconscious.
[2575.8s] Perfect.
[2576.2s] Then I'll swing around and try and hit the other.
[2579.5s] And that is a no, 10, no, 11.
[2586.0s] 11 will not hit.
[2587.2s] No.
[2587.4s] Okay.
[2588.6s] Then I guess Donnie will try and like give him
[2590.7s] a little little chomp-a-roo,
[2593.0s] which also will not work because that is a nine.
[2595.6s] Okay.
[2596.2s] So you swing and knock one unconscious
[2601.0s] and miss with the other one entirely.
[2603.9s] And Donnie, he's just finding trouble
[2607.8s] amongst all these swinging hammers and sticks
[2610.4s] to try and get a good dig in there.
[2613.3s] Flint, your turn.
[2614.2s] There is only one zombie who is left standing and active.
[2617.5s] That is a 21.
[2619.7s] 21 will do it.
[2621.5s] And seven damage.
[2622.8s] He is knocked back a little bit but still standing.
[2626.1s] Okay.
[2627.2s] And that's a 16 for the second roll.
[2629.6s] 16 will hit, yep.
[2631.8s] With nine damage.
[2633.3s] And you knock him unconscious as well.
[2636.7s] So all four zombies are now laid out on the ground
[2640.7s] and they appear to be have just incapacitated
[2643.9s] as opposed to kill.
[2646.0s] Excellent.
[2646.7s] Good job.
[2647.7s] We did it.
[2648.7s] We didn't do murders once, ever.
[2651.9s] Once, for once.
[2653.1s] I think this might be the first time
[2654.4s] we haven't just murdered everything.
[2655.9s] I think so too.
[2657.1s] So we tie them up, I guess.
[2659.9s] So it's four less to deal with at some other point.
[2663.2s] Can we use that thorn whip to tie them up?
[2665.8s] That seems more painful.
[2667.1s] Seems kind of cruel but I'm not opposed.
[2669.5s] Seems more incapacitating.
[2672.2s] I don't know if you can
[2673.2s] because it's an instantaneous thing that disappears after you use it.
[2676.1s] Oh, I see.
[2677.1s] It's illusionary.
[2679.5s] In my mind, the vine actually shrivels up.
[2682.1s] Yeah.
[2682.3s] Oh, that's fun.
[2683.8s] So yeah, let's just tie them up with some ropes.
[2688.3s] Keep on going.
[2689.3s] Yeah, you each tie up one of these zombies
[2691.8s] and kind of pile them off to the side
[2694.4s] and you continue on.
[2696.2s] And as you keep going further into this tunnel system,
[2700.8s] Torgar's leading you,
[2702.0s] that thudding that you heard and continue to hear increases in volume
[2707.4s] and it's getting louder and louder but still very consistent.
[2710.8s] He tells you that you're coming close to
[2713.0s] where you should be going underneath the river
[2715.6s] and there's a final staircase that goes down
[2719.4s] and the thudding is louder and louder and louder.
[2723.0s] You step down off this final step
[2725.1s] and there is a four to six inch layer of water.
[2728.6s] It appears that this tunnel is starting to fill up
[2731.6s] and you look ahead and down to the end of this tunnel
[2734.2s] and you see six dwarven soldiers with their hammers
[2739.6s] beating in the sides of this tunnel.
[2742.6s] Water looks like it's streaming in from where they are impacting it.
[2747.8s] Well, this seems like a suicide mission for them.
[2751.0s] Yeah, no kidding.
[2752.2s] Torgar and you guys follow down and you take a splash into the water
[2756.9s] and they look over to you
[2758.9s] and four of them begin charging towards you
[2761.1s] while two of them continue to hammer on the wall.
[2765.8s] Roll for initiative.
[2767.2s] Looks like we're gonna have to stop that business.
[2769.6s] Oh, I only got a five.
[2771.9s] Nineteen?
[2773.0s] Fifteen.
[2773.4s] Good job, you guys.
[2775.2s] My initiative bonus is plus three, so it's pretty good.
[2778.3s] Nice.
[2779.0s] Okay, so Torgar is first down and he's first to react
[2783.3s] and he runs towards the four charging zombies
[2787.1s] and swings his hammer at one of the ones in the front.
[2791.8s] First one hits but doesn't hit squarely on the first one
[2795.7s] and his second strike connects solidly with one of the other zombies
[2801.0s] and it takes 15 bludgeoning damage
[2805.4s] and it is knocked prone
[2807.2s] and now it is Nularaaaa.
[2809.4s] You follow quickly behind Torgar and it is your turn.
[2812.1s] Okay, I'll attack the next in the approaching group.
[2818.1s] That is a six, no, 15.
[2820.6s] Are you still using your lance?
[2821.7s] Yeah.
[2822.0s] 15 will kind of glance off its armor.
[2824.8s] The old lance glance.
[2826.2s] Okay, I'm going to try that one more time
[2829.2s] and that is a 23, so that one will probably work better.
[2832.4s] Yep.
[2833.6s] And that is 13 damage.
[2837.2s] You give him a good hit and it stops him in his tracks
[2847.4s] and the two zombies running behind them kind of barrel in
[2851.2s] to the two that are now knocked down
[2853.4s] and there's a bit of a pile of zombies
[2856.1s] as they are trying to right themselves.
[2858.4s] Flint, it's your turn.
[2860.0s] So you have Nularaaaa and Torgar in front of you
[2863.4s] and then four zombies in a frantic pile
[2866.2s] trying to stand back up right now.
[2868.1s] Is there like that Benny Hill music playing in the background?
[2871.7s] Always, always.
[2872.9s] Okay, perfect.
[2873.5s] Because that's what's running through my head
[2874.8s] whenever we play this game.
[2875.9s] Of course.
[2876.7s] I'm going to run past Torgar and Nularaaaa
[2879.8s] and dive on in with a 14, so that's not going to do it.
[2889.8s] Second attack.
[2891.4s] Oh, that's much better, 19.
[2892.6s] 19 will do it, yep.
[2893.8s] Excellent.
[2894.7s] Oh, 10 damage.
[2897.0s] You run through and past Nularaaaa and Torgar
[2900.8s] and you connect with one and kind of,
[2904.1s] we'll say that you kind of do like a tuck and roll
[2907.0s] over top of these scrambling zombies
[2909.4s] and you are now on the other side of this pile of zombies.
[2913.0s] And that one takes that damage
[2916.2s] and it is two of the zombies who were first knocked down.
[2920.3s] They stand back up.
[2922.2s] First one swings towards Torgar
[2924.0s] who doesn't roll well today who misses
[2928.7s] and the second one swings toward Nularaaaa
[2931.0s] and that is a 15.
[2933.3s] I think that misses as well.
[2935.2s] Yeah, that misses.
[2936.3s] I'm not trying to make this easy on you guys.
[2938.2s] It's just working out that way.
[2941.1s] That's better because we're trying not to kill them.
[2943.0s] So it would be unfair if they were really trying to kill us.
[2946.2s] Thea, you see the zombies knocked down
[2948.7s] and Flint run and jump over them
[2950.6s] and now he's on the other side and now it's your turn.
[2953.6s] Okay, I am going to,
[2956.9s] there's still two still beating on the walls, right?
[2959.5s] Yeah.
[2959.8s] Trying to get this whole shit to come down.
[2962.7s] I am going to cast Conjure Animal.
[2966.2s] I'm going to summon face spirits that take the form of beasts
[2969.8s] and appear in the space directly in front of these two assholes
[2973.8s] trying to cave the walls in.
[2975.4s] Okay.
[2976.2s] The beast that I choose is going to be a crocodile because it's...
[2981.7s] It's within your challenge rating ability.
[2983.3s] It's within my challenge rating ability of one half.
[2985.4s] Okay.
[2986.1s] Oh, I can choose a challenge rating of two.
[2988.2s] Yeah, well just keep in mind that you've got space restrictions to consider.
[2991.1s] Oh yeah, a crocodile would probably be good, you know,
[2992.9s] because the water, I don't know.
[2995.3s] So yeah, so I do that
[2999.0s] and I'm and my crocodile,
[3001.8s] can I fight with my crocodile immediately as I conjure him
[3005.7s] or is that my action?
[3006.8s] Hold on a second.
[3007.4s] So you can summon four beasts at a challenge rating of one half.
[3011.4s] I'm going to do, well, two of these beasts then.
[3014.0s] I don't have to do four, do I?
[3015.5s] I can do two crocodiles.
[3017.0s] Yeah.
[3017.5s] Good, because there are two guys there.
[3018.8s] I'm going to scroll down.
[3020.2s] The summoned creatures are friendly to us, but not to them.
[3023.0s] Rule initiative for the summoned creatures as a group which has its own turn.
[3027.5s] So it has to fall in line,
[3029.0s] so it might not be able to go right away unless it falls.
[3032.7s] Ten.
[3034.2s] They would go next.
[3034.9s] They would go next, cool.
[3036.9s] So you have to give them a command.
[3039.1s] Yes.
[3039.8s] Otherwise, they just kind of stand there.
[3041.4s] So I command, I say, hey, crocs, bite those assholes.
[3049.2s] No, bite those guys.
[3050.3s] They acknowledge your command and they go to attack the two that are hammering on the wall.
[3056.2s] Yes.
[3056.9s] So you roll attacks for your crocodiles.
[3059.6s] Okay, they are going to use their bite because that's all they got.
[3064.7s] Hold breath.
[3065.3s] I don't think it's really going to happen.
[3066.9s] So your first one hits.
[3069.8s] Do you attack for your second one as well?
[3072.4s] They fight as a group.
[3074.1s] They still have to make an attack roll on each of them.
[3076.8s] Okay, that one does not.
[3077.9s] That's a seven.
[3079.7s] So the first one is going to bite for 1d10 plus two.
[3084.4s] So that's five.
[3085.8s] Right in the ass.
[3086.8s] So they're very literal when you say, bite those assholes.
[3090.8s] That's what they're doing.
[3092.6s] Until this grapple ends, the target is restrained.
[3096.6s] So he's biting and holding.
[3097.9s] That's my no.
[3099.0s] Yeah, that's that's good.
[3100.0s] I just need to.
[3100.7s] There's something I had to get out of restraint.
[3102.6s] I just need to know what the check is.
[3105.0s] Guys, I'm so excited.
[3106.0s] I'm using something new.
[3107.4s] I know it's really fun, too.
[3109.1s] And good choice because it just gives them the old chomp.
[3112.6s] And then maybe he can't fight.
[3115.2s] Yeah, maybe he can't fight now.
[3117.2s] I like it also not breaking down the walls.
[3120.5s] I mean, he's still that other guy.
[3121.8s] And intimidating.
[3123.5s] Yeah, like, boom, crocodiles out of nowhere.
[3126.1s] I'd pee my pants.
[3127.7s] Yep.
[3128.2s] Agreed.
[3128.9s] It has to make a strength check on its turn, but not right now.
[3133.1s] So the crocodiles.
[3134.6s] So Osric, he pulls out his crossbow and he goes to shoot one in the pile of mess there
[3144.7s] and hits with an 18 and he will get eight piercing damage into one that's in the in
[3151.8s] the pile in the middle there.
[3153.5s] Two more in the center of the mess stand up and one that turns around and swings
[3159.2s] towards Flint.
[3160.2s] The other goes towards Nulara.
[3162.9s] The one goes towards Flint is a nine.
[3166.5s] So that's not going to be good.
[3170.2s] And also a nine from your I'm just not going to play.
[3172.4s] You guys just tell me when you kill them.
[3173.7s] Okay, incapacitate them.
[3178.2s] That's right.
[3178.6s] Being good.
[3179.5s] Yeah.
[3180.2s] So the two hammering on the wall.
[3181.8s] It's their turn now.
[3182.7s] The one who is grappled by the crocodile can certainly try to escape the grapple.
[3188.5s] I just imagine grape apple.
[3190.0s] The word grapples.
[3190.8s] We've been ruined.
[3192.5s] Is there no, you can't see what you need to get.
[3195.7s] No.
[3196.3s] Okay.
[3196.6s] I rolled a 13.
[3197.4s] Okay.
[3197.9s] Just trying to play for fighting over the book.
[3202.4s] Piercing damage is grappled until the grapple ends is already restrained.
[3206.6s] And the crocodile can't buy it.
[3207.8s] So we can't obviously like he's got a mouthful already.
[3210.1s] You can't attack someone different.
[3211.8s] So he's just going to hold him.
[3213.9s] Okay.
[3214.6s] Well, he's going to try and get it, but not.
[3217.7s] And he's going to swing with disadvantage because he is grappled,
[3222.0s] but he's going to swing, which is a nine versus his AC.
[3227.8s] Nine versus my crocodile's AC.
[3229.8s] Yeah.
[3230.5s] 12.
[3231.0s] So that doesn't hit.
[3232.5s] The other one continues to hammer on the wall and ignores the other crocodile there.
[3241.0s] And as he continues to hammer, you hear an audible crack and crumble.
[3247.0s] And it appears like more water begins to come into this tunnel.
[3250.9s] Goodness gracious.
[3253.0s] And to Torgar.
[3255.6s] That's me again.
[3256.6s] All right.
[3257.0s] Let's just see if I can mess with this one too.
[3259.0s] Torgar.
[3259.5s] He swings at, he sees these crocodiles appear and he's like, holy shit, that's cool.
[3267.8s] That's the appropriate response.
[3269.9s] And he swings his hammer single-handed at the two zombies in front of him,
[3276.1s] but seems a little bit thrown off by the, by the holy shit.
[3279.4s] That's cool.
[3280.0s] Crocodiles and misses with bows.
[3282.5s] And Nulara, it is your turn.
[3284.1s] You also see two spirit crocodiles, which is the first time you've seen
[3288.3s] Thea do something like this appear down at the end of this tunnel.
[3293.4s] I would just like to say Thea has been able to do this for a very long time and never has.
[3300.1s] They don't need to know that.
[3301.7s] Yeah, that's, yeah, that's fine.
[3302.9s] I'll assume you learned it in your book.
[3304.8s] That's right.
[3305.4s] Books are important.
[3305.8s] So I yell, sweet shit, Thea, dope spell.
[3309.9s] Is there one now in front of me?
[3311.8s] Two are laying down.
[3312.7s] All four are standing up, but there are four in front of you.
[3316.6s] One is engaged in combat with Flint directly.
[3320.2s] The other three are more aimed towards you and Torgar.
[3324.2s] Okay.
[3324.6s] Well, I'll just attack the one closest to me, I suppose.
[3328.1s] It's a 23.
[3329.1s] 23 will hit.
[3331.0s] That is 14 damage.
[3333.6s] That one is now appears to be unconscious.
[3337.4s] Perfect.
[3338.1s] I will attack a different one.
[3341.0s] That is a 28.
[3343.2s] And 12 damage.
[3347.7s] And that one is also unconscious.
[3351.7s] Donnie's going to try and bite one.
[3353.4s] Yep.
[3355.1s] That's a 19.
[3356.9s] Donnie.
[3358.3s] 19 will be good.
[3359.2s] So that is a four damage.
[3364.2s] And then he needs to do a constitution saving throw.
[3369.3s] Poison does not affect zombies.
[3371.2s] So nothing happens there, but he does take the four damage.
[3375.7s] Okay.
[3376.1s] He is still standing.
[3378.2s] So Flint, you have one zombie directly in front of you swinging its hammer at you.
[3383.8s] It is your turn.
[3385.0s] Anyone else imagining Russ though, every time he says still standing,
[3387.8s] like these zombies are singing in their head like,
[3389.9s] I'm still standing better than I ever did.
[3394.3s] That's better than if they're watching that Jim Belushi sitcom.
[3397.9s] So that's true.
[3399.4s] That's true.
[3400.2s] I think the song would be a great fight montage song.
[3405.5s] I'm into it.
[3407.0s] Oh, totally.
[3408.3s] Yeah.
[3408.6s] I was going to get those rights.
[3409.8s] I was going to say we can't afford Elton John style rights, but I like the idea.
[3415.0s] I'll call him up.
[3415.6s] Play it on a recorder.
[3417.1s] That's right.
[3418.1s] Wait a minute.
[3418.6s] That's just hot cross buns.
[3421.4s] Every time.
[3422.5s] Every time.
[3424.1s] Are there still the guys hammering into the wall?
[3427.4s] Yes, sir.
[3428.1s] Am I close enough to run over there?
[3430.0s] You are.
[3430.5s] There are two, two crocodiles between you and them though.
[3435.3s] But they're not going to hurt you.
[3436.6s] But they're friendly to me, right?
[3438.3s] Whether you as Flint know that or not is uncertain.
[3442.2s] Can I ask Thea if they're friendly or not?
[3445.6s] Yeah.
[3445.9s] Hey Thea, are those crocs of yours going to hurt me if I go over there?
[3450.1s] No, no, man.
[3450.7s] They're like puppies, scaly puppies.
[3452.3s] You go, you go.
[3453.6s] All right.
[3454.6s] All right.
[3454.8s] I'm going to run over there and try and take one of them down, I guess.
[3460.6s] You are running away from the zombie that's in front of you?
[3463.7s] Yes.
[3464.0s] He will get an opportunity to attack me.
[3465.8s] That is fine.
[3466.6s] So we're going to do that here first.
[3468.9s] He's not going to do anything.
[3469.8s] I don't know why it even matters.
[3471.0s] It's 13.
[3471.8s] Keep going.
[3472.4s] Run.
[3472.7s] So confident that you were going to botch the roll that it was totally fine.
[3476.4s] Get rid of these fucking dice.
[3480.8s] He actually changed his dice right now.
[3482.8s] He's like, this one's broken.
[3484.8s] This one's broken.
[3487.0s] That's so good.
[3488.0s] All right.
[3488.7s] So yeah, I'm going to attack the one that did get bit by the croc because he was a little
[3493.5s] more hurt and see if I can take him down.
[3496.7s] Sure.
[3497.0s] All right.
[3497.2s] That's an 18.
[3499.1s] 18 will do it.
[3499.8s] And nine damage on that first attack.
[3502.6s] It is grappled by this crocodile and you hit it and it is still alive.
[3507.8s] Okay.
[3508.6s] Well, I mean, I'm just trying to not try to kill him.
[3512.8s] It is still able to take an action.
[3514.4s] Okay, perfect.
[3515.7s] That is a critical on a 19.
[3519.8s] Because I get twice as many chances to hit criticals as everyone else.
[3523.4s] All right.
[3524.2s] So damage wise, this shouldn't be too bad because I'm still using like the blunt side
[3529.0s] of my axe.
[3530.5s] So that's six and another six.
[3533.5s] So 12 damage.
[3534.6s] It is unconscious now as well.
[3537.3s] And we go to the first two zombies that had charged.
[3542.2s] There's only one of those left up.
[3544.2s] And he swings towards, it doesn't even really matter who he swings towards.
[3548.4s] It's going to miss.
[3549.6s] I'm going to swing towards Nulara.
[3551.6s] Oh, that's a 21.
[3553.6s] What?
[3554.4s] Yep.
[3554.6s] That'll hit.
[3555.1s] Not critical.
[3556.1s] Not critical.
[3557.5s] And you take-
[3558.2s] Quick, Amy.
[3558.9s] Change the dice backwards.
[3560.0s] Not looking.
[3561.3s] You take-
[3561.8s] It's red versus black.
[3563.0s] I think he'd notice.
[3564.2s] Yeah.
[3564.7s] You take six bludgeoning damage off of that zombie soldier.
[3569.1s] And then it is Thea.
[3570.8s] Your turn.
[3572.3s] Okay.
[3573.8s] Well, guys, this allows me to have two actions.
[3578.4s] I've always wanted two actions.
[3579.5s] This is all you've ever wanted.
[3580.8s] I love it.
[3581.4s] It's all I've ever wanted.
[3582.9s] And one time you're crocodile.
[3585.0s] So it's just more exciting than just a roll roll.
[3589.2s] Yeah.
[3590.0s] Okay.
[3590.4s] So I guess there is, there is.
[3596.5s] So what you see, water's rising.
[3598.6s] There are two zombies who are unconscious in the center,
[3602.6s] engaged in combat with Nulara and Torgar.
[3604.9s] There are two still standing there.
[3607.8s] One is in the mouth of one of your crocodiles.
[3610.5s] It is unconscious.
[3612.2s] The other is still hammering on the wall with the crocodile
[3615.4s] and now Flint over there.
[3616.9s] I am going to get out my oath bow.
[3619.9s] I'm going to say swift death to those who have wronged me.
[3623.8s] You have to pick one of them.
[3625.6s] I'm picking the one that is hammering on the wall
[3627.9s] because I feel like this guy can just kill us all.
[3629.9s] Yeah.
[3630.3s] So I'm going to shoot my oath bow.
[3634.9s] This is why I don't use weapons.
[3637.4s] Four plus two, six.
[3641.1s] So your oath bow shot just goes wide.
[3643.4s] Whatever.
[3643.9s] I've got two crocodiles.
[3646.4s] I command the one crocodile to let go of the guy that he's biting
[3650.9s] and for both of them to focus their attention on
[3654.3s] the one that is pounding on the wall.
[3656.3s] Sure.
[3657.6s] So damn, damn, damn it.
[3661.9s] That's a seven for one of them.
[3663.6s] Matt misses.
[3664.4s] Oh, a nat 20 for the other one.
[3667.4s] The other one is the one that has not previously bit somebody.
[3670.4s] So he gets a turn now.
[3672.0s] So he is going to bite the derriere of this one
[3676.6s] because his back is to him.
[3678.5s] And he's going to do the death roll
[3681.4s] because he's a crocodile and crocodiles do that.
[3683.4s] Can I get him to do that?
[3685.2s] Yeah.
[3687.1s] It's not going to give him any more damage,
[3688.4s] but can it rip him off his feet?
[3690.0s] You'd get damage from the bite because he's biting him.
[3692.5s] Yeah.
[3693.4s] But I mean, can he also rip him down into the water and spin?
[3696.4s] He'd be restrained and then prone.
[3698.0s] Well, I mean, he'd be restrained, but yeah.
[3700.4s] Cool.
[3700.8s] Sure.
[3702.0s] One D10 plus two.
[3703.2s] Times two.
[3704.7s] What?
[3705.2s] Because you got a critical.
[3707.6s] That's nine, 10, 11 times two?
[3710.2s] Or do I roll twice?
[3710.8s] You roll again.
[3711.5s] Oh, yeah.
[3712.0s] You don't get your plus again, but yeah, you get another dice.
[3714.9s] Cool.
[3716.0s] That's 17.
[3716.8s] 17.
[3719.6s] He's like barrel rolling this guy.
[3723.7s] So he is...
[3725.2s] Flint, in front of you, you see one of these crocodiles
[3727.6s] just snatch this zombie soldier
[3730.2s] and then just begin rolling with him.
[3734.1s] And it looks like quite a violent roll.
[3737.2s] Nobody looks happy about it, except the crocodile.
[3739.6s] Crocodile looks pretty stoked.
[3740.7s] Whee!
[3742.8s] Ostrich shoots his crossbow into one of the ones
[3746.6s] that is in front of Nulara and Torgar.
[3750.0s] And he gets a 19, which is going to be eight piercing damage.
[3757.0s] And that one is unconscious.
[3759.2s] So there is now only one in front of Nulara and Torgar.
[3765.5s] And now it is that one's turn.
[3768.3s] And he is going to swing at Torgar for 21, not critical.
[3774.7s] And Torgar is going to take one damage.
[3779.2s] Single damage.
[3780.6s] A toe-stubbing worth of damage, if you will.
[3782.8s] Is that what Flint has, too?
[3783.7s] And Torgar's damage.
[3785.6s] His toe's achy.
[3786.8s] He's got an achy toe.
[3789.0s] Zombie, who is now in a death roll.
[3791.6s] I'm just going to roll and see if we can...
[3794.1s] Strength check?
[3794.9s] Yeah, roll a strength check for your crocodile.
[3797.8s] Nat 20.
[3799.5s] Even my...
[3800.6s] Damn!
[3801.2s] Yeah.
[3801.6s] You got the good dice tonight.
[3803.0s] Yeah, you got 22.
[3804.0s] 22.
[3804.4s] So I got a 20.
[3806.0s] You have a Nat 20.
[3807.2s] This is my third one.
[3808.1s] It's amazing.
[3808.8s] He is flailing against this crocodile.
[3811.1s] This crocodile is hammering him.
[3813.8s] Kind of the role of this, though, is giving some more shake to the wall.
[3819.3s] And you see some more crumbling coming out of the wall.
[3822.1s] Yeah, I'll stop.
[3823.2s] It's not the crocodile's turn.
[3824.7s] It doesn't matter.
[3825.7s] I can give verbal commands.
[3826.8s] It's not your turn either.
[3828.3s] What?
[3828.8s] It's not your turn.
[3830.0s] It has to be my turn.
[3831.2s] It says no action required by you.
[3834.2s] From the start to the end is six seconds.
[3836.5s] Oh, all right.
[3837.8s] Yeah.
[3838.2s] Go so fast.
[3839.2s] I know.
[3840.3s] And now it's Torgar's turn.
[3841.7s] There's one zombie left between him and Nulara there.
[3846.8s] And that is a 20, not critical.
[3849.6s] 11 damage.
[3850.8s] So that zombie takes a big hit, but is still up.
[3855.3s] And Nulara, your turn.
[3856.7s] I have a question.
[3857.4s] If one of the people in the campaign, our friends, were to ask me to ask the crocodile
[3863.6s] to stop, would I be able to let them stop?
[3867.3s] No, because it's still not your turn.
[3868.6s] No, I know.
[3869.0s] But like when Flint asked me, hey, are these crocodiles cool?
[3872.4s] And I said, yeah, they're like puppies.
[3874.8s] Would it not be, would that not set a precedent that I can speak?
[3877.7s] You still have to give.
[3878.9s] Well, yeah, you're engaged in quick conversation with.
[3882.9s] I'm just trying to find the loop.
[3884.0s] No, no, you can't, you can't stop your goddamn things.
[3888.1s] Fine.
[3888.6s] Lara, it's your turn.
[3889.3s] Keep looking.
[3889.9s] I think you're on the trail.
[3891.3s] Follow the money, Amy.
[3892.7s] So I'm going to attack that last one.
[3895.5s] That is a 17.
[3897.0s] 17 will hit, yeah.
[3898.7s] Nine.
[3899.8s] Nine is enough to incapacitate that zombie.
[3904.1s] Nice.
[3904.7s] So there's just the one in the death roll with the crocodile still active, we'll say.
[3911.2s] Okay.
[3911.6s] You don't know how you're going to.
[3912.6s] Yeah, like I'm probably not going to.
[3914.6s] Even though it won't hurt me, it might accidentally still seems like a bad idea.
[3920.8s] Also, we got to get out of here because that wall cracked, right?
[3924.8s] Do you want to start just start running?
[3927.2s] I don't know.
[3927.6s] What do you guys think?
[3928.4s] Like, I guess we haven't heard any updates on how that cracked wall went.
[3931.7s] It will be very ironic if this battle took three times longer than normal because
[3936.2s] we were using not our best weapons to try not to kill these things.
[3939.7s] And now it just floods and they all die.
[3942.2s] Truth.
[3942.8s] Yeah, that would be really stupid.
[3944.8s] I say we run.
[3945.8s] Yeah.
[3946.3s] Because what's one non-incapacitated soldier out of like hundreds that we still are yet to fight?
[3952.0s] Yeah.
[3952.5s] Yeah, let's, let's.
[3953.8s] How high is the water at this point?
[3955.6s] About knee height.
[3957.9s] Knee height.
[3958.6s] Okay.
[3960.0s] So you're, you would be slowed unless you have some sort of.
[3963.9s] Crocodile to ride on?
[3964.8s] I don't know.
[3965.2s] Crocodile to ride on.
[3967.6s] But yes, you would be slowed in terms of making distance.
[3971.4s] I mean, I can walk on water.
[3974.0s] Yes, you can.
[3974.7s] I forgot that too.
[3975.8s] Yeah.
[3976.4s] Girl, walk on water.
[3978.0s] We can water walk for one hour.
[3980.3s] I think up to 10 willing creatures.
[3983.6s] There you go.
[3984.5s] Oh damn.
[3985.0s] So we just walk as though on solid ground.
[3988.2s] Let's walk our asses out of here.
[3990.0s] In a now three foot tall.
[3992.1s] Oh Jesus.
[3993.2s] Oh, so we're bent like literally half seas at the waist.
[3998.9s] Yeah.
[3999.2s] Well, Flint's not.
[4001.6s] Yeah, I'm just ducking slightly.
[4003.3s] Neither is Torgar and Ostrich, right?
[4005.1s] Flint, Torgar and Ostrich aren't.
[4006.6s] That's true.
[4007.2s] They're like hunched a bit.
[4009.8s] I will.
[4010.4s] I'll just lay down on top of one of my crocodiles and have them.
[4016.1s] You can too.
[4017.1s] We do have two crocodiles if you want to.
[4019.0s] I love it.
[4019.5s] That sounds amazing.
[4020.8s] So you are casting water walk then as your second action?
[4025.4s] Sure.
[4025.7s] Walking on water.
[4026.7s] Yeah, water walk, I believe.
[4028.3s] You cast this and you guys just kind of go whoop.
[4031.0s] Right to the top.
[4032.4s] Nice sound effect.
[4033.6s] I like that.
[4034.7s] Yeah, that was good.
[4035.6s] And then Flint, it's your turn.
[4039.1s] I thought we were booking it out.
[4040.6s] You're booking it.
[4041.4s] Okay, so Flint, as everybody begins booking it, you hear in your brain space,
[4049.5s] you hear Bort say, hey, I figured it out.
[4053.3s] And then you feel a rumble, a burning charge.
[4059.9s] We're making an attack roll.
[4064.9s] 16.
[4066.1s] Do I have any modifiers?
[4067.4s] Question.
[4068.2s] No, we'll just do that for now.
[4070.5s] You feel and now see.
[4073.9s] So everybody's kind of behind you because you were closest to the exit stairs to get up.
[4079.1s] Everybody else sees out of Flint's mouth come an electric lightning charge.
[4086.6s] As he breathes lightning down this tunnel, Flint, roll 2d6.
[4092.8s] Okay.
[4093.6s] And also I turn around at everyone and wink at them.
[4099.1s] Five and five is ten.
[4101.0s] You're erupting lightning from your mouth and you turn and it strikes the wall and you turn
[4109.2s] and the wall visibly cracks and water begins streaming in as you guys
[4117.0s] run past this flood of water now coming into this tunnel.
[4121.4s] The tunnel is flooding.
[4122.8s] Water is coming up quickly and you guys are running out of this tunnel,
[4127.1s] which is now kind of filling up the stairwell behind you and continuing to rise
[4132.4s] as you look down and see if it's stopping or if it's not, it is not stopping.
[4137.6s] It is continuing to rise music in today's episode was by Kavin McLeod
[4165.6s] of Incompetech.Filmmusic.io just clicked a weird off thing.
[4170.5s] Maybe.
[4171.0s] Okay. Sorry.
[4171.7s] That had nothing to do with anything.
[4173.4s] Okay.
[4174.4s] Or did it have something to do with everything?
[4176.4s] I was going to say if you went to zero AC,
[4179.2s] I think we would have left you outside the funnel tunnels.
[4184.4s] Dumbgeons and Dragons is a dumb dragons production.
