1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,399
Previously on Dumbgeons and Dragons.

2
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,280
Come on in, my friends.

3
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,079
I feel we have much to talk about.

4
00:00:34,079 --> 00:00:36,439
We might actually wanna just talk to him.

5
00:00:36,439 --> 00:00:38,719
I just want to know how you guys

6
00:00:38,719 --> 00:00:41,000
keep getting away from my traps.

7
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:42,799
This isn't the first time, you know.

8
00:00:42,799 --> 00:00:45,019
I feel like this power I'm looking for

9
00:00:45,019 --> 00:00:46,359
is what's actually helping you.

10
00:00:46,359 --> 00:00:48,920
Now, which one of you has the key to get it?

11
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:50,159
Have a seat at my table.

12
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:51,240
We can discuss this.

13
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,960
We can see if we can join forces

14
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,560
for the betterment of everyone.

15
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,560
No, we will not join you, you psychopath.

16
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:01,840
Necromancer?

17
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,079
Have it your way.

18
00:01:03,079 --> 00:01:05,359
I'll just have all my zombies kill you

19
00:01:05,359 --> 00:01:08,560
and then, well, I'll find it on you somewhere.

20
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,519
I'm going to haul lightning.

21
00:01:11,519 --> 00:01:12,920
He doesn't move.

22
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,640
Oh, he's just choosing not to make the save.

23
00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:16,480
Oh, fuck.

24
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:17,400
That's fun.

25
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:18,359
Yeah, totally.

26
00:01:18,359 --> 00:01:19,960
You call this lightning.

27
00:01:19,960 --> 00:01:23,079
It strikes five feet above him

28
00:01:23,079 --> 00:01:25,200
as if there's a dome covering him.

29
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,640
You hear from down the hall

30
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:31,280
the breaking of what sounds like the front door.

31
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,040
And Torgar yells to Osric,

32
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:34,840
we have to go slow them down.

33
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,840
Bugbear on the far right of the room.

34
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:38,120
There are three in this room.

35
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,400
There's one towards the very back standing by a door.

36
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,439
There's one off to the right in the room

37
00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:45,599
and he begins to work his way backwards

38
00:01:45,599 --> 00:01:47,000
towards that door.

39
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,079
And both of them just ready themselves.

40
00:01:49,079 --> 00:01:53,280
He says, I think it's time for me to go.

41
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,879
A portal opens on the floor beside him

42
00:01:55,879 --> 00:01:56,920
and he jumps through.

43
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,600
What's behind that door?

44
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,400
You hear, it sounds like zombies hitting the door

45
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:03,799
that you entered from previously.

46
00:02:03,799 --> 00:02:05,240
And you open this door,

47
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,519
you see in the center of those spires

48
00:02:07,519 --> 00:02:10,719
is a piece of the Axe of Mirabar armor.

49
00:02:10,719 --> 00:02:14,599
And there are three bubbling jars.

50
00:02:14,599 --> 00:02:18,840
And inside of those jars are brains.

51
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,280
Welcome to Dumbgeons and Dragons.

52
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,000
This is a D&D fifth edition actual play podcast.

53
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,680
I'm your dungeon master, Russ More.

54
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,200
And joining me today, continuing the journey

55
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:30,040
is Amy More playing Thea Amastasia.

56
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:31,319
Yes, it is.

57
00:02:31,319 --> 00:02:32,840
It's the same joke you used last time.

58
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,280
Damn it, let me try again.

59
00:02:35,599 --> 00:02:36,439
Hi.

60
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,000
Just take it one more time.

61
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:44,439
What up?

62
00:02:44,439 --> 00:02:45,640
I like it.

63
00:02:45,640 --> 00:02:47,000
Oh, that's so much better.

64
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:47,840
Thank you.

65
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,800
Playing me Laura Moonbrook is Carla Johnson.

66
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:50,640
Hello.

67
00:02:50,640 --> 00:02:53,800
And Tom Laird playing Flint Firebeard.

68
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,680
Drop the chalupa.

69
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,520
I like it.

70
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:57,880
You're trying to make that happen, hey?

71
00:02:57,880 --> 00:02:58,719
That's right.

72
00:02:58,719 --> 00:02:59,760
Bringing it back.

73
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,280
This month, we are,

74
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:03,600
well, we have a couple of things going on.

75
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,520
We have a new website, which is up.

76
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,320
Everybody can say how awesome it is

77
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,600
because they've totally seen it by this point.

78
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,200
Oh, it is amazing.

79
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:14,600
Wait, we have a new website?

80
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,520
Oh, it looks so good.

81
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:17,760
I haven't seen it.

82
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:21,520
Once again, Russ has done all of the work

83
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:22,920
and gets all of the credit

84
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:24,520
for anything that looks good

85
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,720
and anything that is bad,

86
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,520
we'll take the blame for.

87
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:29,600
Yeah, that's about fair.

88
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,120
Does that seem fair, you guys?

89
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,760
That's a good division of labor, I think.

90
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:34,600
Yeah.

91
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:35,420
Yeah.

92
00:03:35,420 --> 00:03:36,260
Yeah, we have a new website.

93
00:03:36,260 --> 00:03:38,040
You can go to dumbdragons.com to check that out.

94
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,720
It's got lovely pictures of all of your lovely faces.

95
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:42,920
I didn't give you a picture.

96
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,200
Not yet, but you will,

97
00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,040
cause this is in the past, Amy.

98
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:50,480
This comes out August 2nd.

99
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,040
Pretend you're in the future for a second.

100
00:03:52,039 --> 00:03:53,719
I have a really hard time.

101
00:03:53,719 --> 00:03:55,039
I know, I know.

102
00:03:55,039 --> 00:03:58,680
Also, we have launched our Patreon page.

103
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,799
You can go to Patreon.com slash dumbdragoncast

104
00:04:02,799 --> 00:04:06,319
to join the adventure and if you can,

105
00:04:06,319 --> 00:04:08,399
contribute starting from $1 a month

106
00:04:08,399 --> 00:04:10,199
to get some sweet perks

107
00:04:10,199 --> 00:04:14,159
in the Dumb Dragon Realm and Universe.

108
00:04:14,159 --> 00:04:16,439
If you do contribute $1 a month,

109
00:04:16,439 --> 00:04:20,000
you get access to all of our Patreon only content,

110
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,439
which will feature exclusive

111
00:04:22,439 --> 00:04:26,060
Patreon only released episodes and bonus content.

112
00:04:26,060 --> 00:04:29,720
The first episode of our Patreon only content

113
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,040
will be released this month with Tom Laird

114
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,680
DMing his own game here with

115
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,199
Oh boy.

116
00:04:36,199 --> 00:04:37,699
The three of us playing.

117
00:04:37,699 --> 00:04:39,079
We'll give you a little taste of that

118
00:04:39,079 --> 00:04:41,920
and then hopefully that catches you

119
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,079
and you wanna get more of that.

120
00:04:43,079 --> 00:04:44,160
We'll be releasing those.

121
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:45,759
We'll talk about this later,

122
00:04:45,759 --> 00:04:47,720
but maybe every month, we'll see.

123
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,480
See how that goes.

124
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:50,319
Tom, how you feel?

125
00:04:50,319 --> 00:04:51,600
How you feel about that, Tom?

126
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:52,439
Tom?

127
00:04:52,439 --> 00:04:53,280
Are you there?

128
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:54,100
Oh yeah, I'm feeling great, guys.

129
00:04:54,100 --> 00:04:54,939
Feeling great about it.

130
00:04:54,939 --> 00:04:56,200
It's only one a month.

131
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,800
There are also other reward tiers.

132
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,800
If you donate $5 a month, what do you get?

133
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,840
Nudes.

134
00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:05,160
Tom?

135
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:06,520
Apparently nudes.

136
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:07,360
It's not on there.

137
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:08,280
It's not on the website.

138
00:05:08,280 --> 00:05:09,280
You're not getting nudes.

139
00:05:09,280 --> 00:05:10,520
You can be picked at random

140
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,800
to have an episode dedicated in your name.

141
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:13,680
That's right.

142
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,520
You get all the Patreon episodes

143
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,540
plus you could be picked at random

144
00:05:18,540 --> 00:05:20,260
to have an episode dedicated in your name.

145
00:05:20,260 --> 00:05:23,460
So right now it could be you, John Smith,

146
00:05:23,460 --> 00:05:25,180
who has this episode dedicated to you.

147
00:05:25,180 --> 00:05:26,620
Kind of like how we dedicated it

148
00:05:26,620 --> 00:05:28,100
to Taco Bell at the beginning.

149
00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:28,939
Exactly.

150
00:05:28,939 --> 00:05:29,780
Precisely.

151
00:05:29,780 --> 00:05:31,980
We'll talk about how we're dropping your Chalupa

152
00:05:31,980 --> 00:05:34,180
instead of Taco Bell's.

153
00:05:34,180 --> 00:05:35,020
Exactly.

154
00:05:35,020 --> 00:05:37,740
And how about that $10 a month or more, Carla?

155
00:05:37,740 --> 00:05:41,580
You get to ask questions on a future Q&A episode

156
00:05:41,580 --> 00:05:45,180
and you get to have an MPC named after you

157
00:05:45,180 --> 00:05:49,740
or a name that you supply.

158
00:05:49,740 --> 00:05:52,579
Within reason, I feel like Russ put that

159
00:05:52,579 --> 00:05:56,500
so people wouldn't be like, I don't know, but Fartsky.

160
00:05:56,500 --> 00:05:57,340
Oh my God.

161
00:05:57,340 --> 00:05:59,420
You know we would pick it.

162
00:05:59,420 --> 00:06:01,379
I gotta admit, that does sound kind of amazing.

163
00:06:01,379 --> 00:06:05,300
Our standards for MPC names are super low.

164
00:06:05,300 --> 00:06:07,899
Yeah, those are the kind of names we make up.

165
00:06:07,899 --> 00:06:11,139
Like, yeah, don't take that from us.

166
00:06:11,180 --> 00:06:16,180
Well, our listeners are cleverer and classier than us,

167
00:06:16,339 --> 00:06:18,899
so they wouldn't try and go for that.

168
00:06:18,899 --> 00:06:20,139
That's what we're here for.

169
00:06:20,139 --> 00:06:21,419
But if they did, it's okay.

170
00:06:21,419 --> 00:06:23,740
But that low-hanging fruit is the most delicious.

171
00:06:23,740 --> 00:06:25,060
Exactly.

172
00:06:25,060 --> 00:06:26,579
So ripe and tasty.

173
00:06:26,579 --> 00:06:27,419
It's good, yeah.

174
00:06:27,419 --> 00:06:30,259
I mean, if you're contributing at that adventurer level,

175
00:06:30,259 --> 00:06:34,259
then absolutely, we will take whatever NPC name,

176
00:06:34,259 --> 00:06:36,740
within reason, that you want to give us.

177
00:06:37,779 --> 00:06:40,379
So now that we've hooked you on our Patreon,

178
00:06:40,379 --> 00:06:42,259
I know that was a great sell.

179
00:06:43,300 --> 00:06:45,300
We are sales people.

180
00:06:45,300 --> 00:06:46,139
It's true.

181
00:06:46,139 --> 00:06:46,980
By trade.

182
00:06:47,860 --> 00:06:51,860
Yeah, we are trying to hit our first goal,

183
00:06:51,860 --> 00:06:54,180
which is getting $50 a month.

184
00:06:54,180 --> 00:06:55,180
And when we do reach that goal,

185
00:06:55,180 --> 00:06:57,699
we'll be giving away a Dumbgeons and Dragons starter set

186
00:06:57,699 --> 00:06:59,139
to a lucky patron.

187
00:06:59,139 --> 00:07:01,180
So we wanna give back to you

188
00:07:01,180 --> 00:07:03,300
if you feel that we are worthy

189
00:07:03,300 --> 00:07:04,899
of your contribution every month.

190
00:07:04,899 --> 00:07:07,420
We would greatly appreciate anything

191
00:07:07,420 --> 00:07:09,279
and everything that you do for us.

192
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:11,880
So thank you in advance.

193
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,800
Including just passing it along to friend, word of mouth.

194
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:15,640
That's right.

195
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,280
If you can't contribute, word of mouth is the best.

196
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,200
Well, enough of this.

197
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:21,240
Shall we D&D?

198
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,080
Let's do it.

199
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:22,920
We shall.

200
00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:25,120
You opened the door to this back room

201
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:26,880
that was attempting to be guarded

202
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,800
by these various zombies previously.

203
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:30,480
And you enter into this room

204
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,720
and there are two large spires.

205
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,400
In the center of those spires

206
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,440
is a piece of the Axe of Mirabar armor

207
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:42,719
and surrounding them are three floating jars

208
00:07:42,719 --> 00:07:45,079
with brains inside.

209
00:07:45,079 --> 00:07:48,319
And they have attacked your minds as you entered the door

210
00:07:48,319 --> 00:07:50,120
and you took a lot of damage when you walked in,

211
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:50,939
psychically.

212
00:07:50,939 --> 00:07:52,720
Let's start by rolling for initiative.

213
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,360
Fucking roll the shit out of this.

214
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,399
One.

215
00:07:55,399 --> 00:07:56,240
I got a one.

216
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,800
One is high, right?

217
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:00,839
One is real good.

218
00:08:00,839 --> 00:08:01,680
Yeah.

219
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:02,500
I got 11.

220
00:08:02,500 --> 00:08:03,339
22.

221
00:08:03,339 --> 00:08:05,199
Starting off the order is Nulara.

222
00:08:05,199 --> 00:08:06,040
Okay.

223
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,600
I'm nervous to be first

224
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,480
because I think things are gonna kill me

225
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,400
when I try and kill them.

226
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:18,400
This is my fear.

227
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,400
So maybe what I will do,

228
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,280
how far is this stuff from us?

229
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:23,100
Oh, close.

230
00:08:23,100 --> 00:08:23,939
Like five feet.

231
00:08:23,939 --> 00:08:25,320
Yeah, they're kind of just swirling

232
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:26,600
around the room right now.

233
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,879
But yeah, they're varying degrees of distance from you.

234
00:08:30,879 --> 00:08:32,039
But it's not a huge room.

235
00:08:32,039 --> 00:08:35,560
Rather than use my sword,

236
00:08:35,560 --> 00:08:36,800
I just am a little concerned

237
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,240
about immediate contact with these things.

238
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,760
They did just hurt my brain pretty bad.

239
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:46,760
Maybe I will take one of my daggers

240
00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,440
and throw it.

241
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,120
Just to see what happens to the weapon.

242
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:56,920
So that is a 17.

243
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,880
And let's say like blue floating brain.

244
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:02,060
Yes, each of the brains are very clearly

245
00:09:02,060 --> 00:09:05,120
a different color to you as your character sees them.

246
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,480
You throw your dagger

247
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:08,919
and just before it connects with the brain,

248
00:09:08,919 --> 00:09:11,000
it casts shield.

249
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:15,240
It is deflected by a magical shield spell.

250
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,159
Oh good, more of these.

251
00:09:17,159 --> 00:09:19,159
So it is a spell that it is casting.

252
00:09:19,159 --> 00:09:20,940
Okay, good.

253
00:09:20,940 --> 00:09:23,240
So it didn't like explode anything

254
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:24,879
or do anything like that.

255
00:09:24,879 --> 00:09:26,320
So in that case,

256
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,039
then I am going to use my best attack,

257
00:09:29,039 --> 00:09:33,440
which is of course my sword flame tongue.

258
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,440
So let's try that.

259
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,880
See if that is better.

260
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,800
That is not better because that is a 17.

261
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,280
You swing and you swing true,

262
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,880
but it is deflected by this invisible shield barrier.

263
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,660
Can Donnie on his turn,

264
00:09:49,660 --> 00:09:52,260
is the armor floating in the middle

265
00:09:52,260 --> 00:09:54,200
or sitting on the ground in the middle?

266
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,160
It is on like a pedestal in the middle

267
00:09:58,160 --> 00:09:59,200
between these spires.

268
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,480
And did the spires go floor to ceiling

269
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,680
or are they like platforms?

270
00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:06,440
They're like curved columns.

271
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:10,200
So like a half moon-esque feature,

272
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,759
kind of like a statue of sorts.

273
00:10:11,759 --> 00:10:12,600
I see.

274
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,600
I don't want Donnie to get that close to them.

275
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,560
Could Donnie on his turn,

276
00:10:17,560 --> 00:10:18,600
he won't be able to do this

277
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,480
because he's very weak, bless his heart,

278
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,960
but maybe try and move the armor off the platform,

279
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,519
like dislodge it somehow.

280
00:10:25,519 --> 00:10:26,480
He can certainly try.

281
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,320
Like fly into it basically.

282
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,279
And I guess would that be a strength check?

283
00:10:31,839 --> 00:10:33,199
He's not good at that,

284
00:10:33,199 --> 00:10:34,639
but yeah, that's a 10.

285
00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:35,879
But he tried.

286
00:10:35,879 --> 00:10:36,839
Tried to move it.

287
00:10:36,839 --> 00:10:40,559
He flies into the middle of this action

288
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,339
and one of the other brains,

289
00:10:44,339 --> 00:10:46,899
you can see it kind of focusing its energy

290
00:10:46,899 --> 00:10:49,259
on the piece of armor.

291
00:10:49,259 --> 00:10:53,799
And it as well appears to get this invisible field

292
00:10:53,799 --> 00:10:54,799
brought up to it.

293
00:10:54,799 --> 00:10:56,759
And Donnie is deflected off.

294
00:10:56,759 --> 00:10:57,919
Me doesn't take any damage,

295
00:10:57,919 --> 00:10:59,879
but he is deflected away from the armor.

296
00:10:59,879 --> 00:11:00,720
Great.

297
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:04,920
Now it is the blue brain's turn.

298
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:05,879
Ruh-roh.

299
00:11:05,879 --> 00:11:08,279
The one that you, Nularaaaa, went for.

300
00:11:08,279 --> 00:11:10,759
And it's going to mind thrust.

301
00:11:10,759 --> 00:11:11,600
Dirty.

302
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:12,420
Yeah.

303
00:11:12,420 --> 00:11:13,259
Yikes.

304
00:11:13,259 --> 00:11:15,080
Makes me uncomfortable.

305
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:18,360
It's going to mind thrust you, Nularaaaa.

306
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:23,040
So you have to succeed on an intelligent saving throw.

307
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:24,639
That and blow your rape whistle.

308
00:11:24,639 --> 00:11:25,480
Jesus.

309
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:26,300
Yeah, no kidding.

310
00:11:26,300 --> 00:11:27,139
Yeesh.

311
00:11:27,139 --> 00:11:29,759
Okay, intelligent saving throw.

312
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:31,680
Tom's back.

313
00:11:31,680 --> 00:11:33,000
All right, sorry about that.

314
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,600
There's mind-thrusting going on, Tom.

315
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,639
Yeah, there's a brain is mind-thrusting me

316
00:11:38,639 --> 00:11:40,600
and I rolled a 15.

317
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:41,940
You don't take any damage,

318
00:11:41,940 --> 00:11:45,920
but it's going to mind thrust on Thea as well.

319
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,180
So you must make an intelligent saving throw.

320
00:11:49,180 --> 00:11:50,320
Oh yeah.

321
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,220
Okay, well that, well, it's still not that good.

322
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,960
So it's a 13.

323
00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:58,680
You do not save.

324
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,480
3d6 psychic damage.

325
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:01,860
Oh, Christ.

326
00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:04,160
It's a low roll though.

327
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,920
You only take seven, seven damage.

328
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,840
That's about as good as you could have hoped for.

329
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,000
And then this brain floats

330
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,040
to the left corner in the room there.

331
00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,680
And now it is the gray brain's turn.

332
00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:21,680
And this one is the one that cast the shield spell

333
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,100
onto the barrier.

334
00:12:24,100 --> 00:12:28,600
And it is going to attempt to mind slave

335
00:12:28,680 --> 00:12:29,519
Flint.

336
00:12:30,399 --> 00:12:34,279
So Flint, you must succeed on a wisdom saving throw.

337
00:12:34,279 --> 00:12:35,360
Excellent.

338
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,860
Wisdom is my worst one.

339
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:41,159
Oh damn, 17.

340
00:12:41,159 --> 00:12:46,159
You feel this brain trying to break in and control you,

341
00:12:46,519 --> 00:12:49,840
but you save and it doesn't have any effect on you.

342
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,680
Now it is Flint's turn.

343
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:52,519
Payback time.

344
00:12:52,519 --> 00:12:56,160
All right, blue has a protective shield on him.

345
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:57,600
Gray does not.

346
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,840
The shield spell lasts until the end of their next turn.

347
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,120
But he cast the shield spell on the armor, no?

348
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:04,879
The gray one did, yes.

349
00:13:04,879 --> 00:13:05,720
All right.

350
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,440
I'm going to go kick the shit out of the gray one then.

351
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:08,279
Do it.

352
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:11,920
In theory, I'm going to kick the shit out of him.

353
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,240
That is a 25.

354
00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:15,519
25 will hit.

355
00:13:15,519 --> 00:13:17,200
Excellent.

356
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,639
17 damage on the first attack.

357
00:13:19,639 --> 00:13:21,960
And we'll go for attack number two.

358
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:22,920
Unless it's dead.

359
00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:23,879
Is it dead, Russ?

360
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,920
They're just squishy brains.

361
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,040
Well, they're in the things, though.

362
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:30,000
Oh, are they in jars?

363
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:30,840
They're in jars.

364
00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,280
They're not just floating squishy brains.

365
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,880
They're in jars.

366
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,320
Well, that's where I keep all my brains.

367
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:37,160
In jars.

368
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:37,980
It's true.

369
00:13:37,980 --> 00:13:38,820
It's a good place for them.

370
00:13:38,820 --> 00:13:40,160
Yeah, but I'm really hipster about it.

371
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:41,240
I use mace in jars.

372
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:42,080
Solid.

373
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:42,920
No, it is not dead.

374
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,040
So sorry, that was 17 damage?

375
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:45,880
Yeah.

376
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:47,320
Write it down.

377
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,120
Yeah, I just had to make sure I had the hit points,

378
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:51,960
right?

379
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:52,780
Go ahead.

380
00:13:52,780 --> 00:13:55,640
All right, I will go for attack number two.

381
00:13:55,639 --> 00:13:57,960
And that is a 22 that time.

382
00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,559
22 will hit, yeah.

383
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,000
God bless those plus seven bonuses.

384
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:03,639
That's a 27 damage.

385
00:14:03,639 --> 00:14:05,039
Oh yeah.

386
00:14:05,039 --> 00:14:07,120
You strike this thing twice

387
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:11,799
and it rocks and spins and moves back into the room,

388
00:14:11,799 --> 00:14:13,519
but it is still floating

389
00:14:13,519 --> 00:14:16,720
and it may have taken like a bit of damage

390
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:20,159
on its outer shell, perhaps a crack in its glass.

391
00:14:20,159 --> 00:14:24,039
Now it's the green brain's turn

392
00:14:24,079 --> 00:14:27,319
and it focuses its attention on you, Flint.

393
00:14:27,319 --> 00:14:28,879
I kind of figured it would.

394
00:14:28,879 --> 00:14:29,719
Yeah.

395
00:14:29,719 --> 00:14:31,439
Also, I don't want Amy to take any more damage,

396
00:14:31,439 --> 00:14:33,439
so I'm gonna try and get them all on me.

397
00:14:34,959 --> 00:14:36,279
Thanks, man.

398
00:14:36,279 --> 00:14:37,360
I don't wanna die today.

399
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,159
So what I'm here for as the role of Dwarven Shield.

400
00:14:40,159 --> 00:14:44,059
A sickening green energy comes out of this brain

401
00:14:44,059 --> 00:14:45,899
and towards you, Flint.

402
00:14:45,899 --> 00:14:49,120
And it creates a ray of sickness attack.

403
00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:50,519
That's an 18.

404
00:14:50,519 --> 00:14:52,559
Is this like a physical attack or?

405
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,280
It's a ranged spell attack, yes.

406
00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,840
Okay, does AC work the same against spells

407
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,400
as it does against physical attacks?

408
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:00,240
Sure does.

409
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:01,760
Okay, I just don't know.

410
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:03,680
No one's ever nuke me with spells before.

411
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:04,520
If it hits you,

412
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,040
you make a constitution saving throw

413
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,600
against this damage though.

414
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,480
So 18 would hit.

415
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:11,960
Yeah, so you make a con save.

416
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,360
Okay.

417
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,440
That is plus 416.

418
00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,000
So you save, so you take full damage,

419
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,400
but you're not poisoned.

420
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:19,520
Oh, great.

421
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:20,760
Yeah. Yay.

422
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:22,480
I'm also resilient to poison

423
00:15:23,399 --> 00:15:24,240
being a Dwarf.

424
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,080
That would be half damage then.

425
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:26,800
So you take. Yeah.

426
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,399
You take four poison damage

427
00:15:29,399 --> 00:15:31,159
with your Dwarven resiliency.

428
00:15:31,159 --> 00:15:32,000
Sweet.

429
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:35,120
And then it is Thea's turn.

430
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:36,000
Oh, is it?

431
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,080
Oh really?

432
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:38,519
Oh really?

433
00:15:38,519 --> 00:15:42,800
I'm gonna evoke Moonbeam to see how this happens

434
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,480
cause I can like whip it around

435
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:47,960
as we found out that other time.

436
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:52,120
I need to concentrate it on just one creature

437
00:15:52,159 --> 00:15:54,919
and I think I'm gonna go for the gray one.

438
00:15:54,919 --> 00:15:56,279
Yes, Amy.

439
00:15:56,279 --> 00:15:58,399
Yeah, cause it's already kind of damaged.

440
00:15:58,399 --> 00:15:59,679
I evoke Moonbeam.

441
00:15:59,679 --> 00:16:01,240
Shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo, shoo.

442
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,200
That's what Moonbeam sounds like.

443
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,519
The official Moonbeam sound effects are just fantastic.

444
00:16:06,519 --> 00:16:07,360
Thank you.

445
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:09,480
High budget.

446
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,360
Constitution saving throw.

447
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,360
And brains and jars get advantage on saves

448
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,680
against magical effects and spells.

449
00:16:18,799 --> 00:16:20,440
But both the rules are terrible.

450
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:21,279
So you hit anyway.

451
00:16:21,319 --> 00:16:22,319
So 13.

452
00:16:22,319 --> 00:16:23,159
Not good.

453
00:16:23,159 --> 00:16:24,000
Not good, okay.

454
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,839
So you take two D10 radiant damage.

455
00:16:26,839 --> 00:16:28,079
11.

456
00:16:28,079 --> 00:16:30,919
It almost looks like the fluid in the jar

457
00:16:30,919 --> 00:16:33,360
begins to boil and there's a visible crack

458
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,600
that appears on the outside of this jar

459
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,919
that the grayish brain is inside.

460
00:16:37,919 --> 00:16:38,759
Yeah.

461
00:16:38,759 --> 00:16:41,600
And we are back to the top of the order,

462
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,120
which is Nulara.

463
00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,399
All three of you here allow rumble

464
00:16:45,399 --> 00:16:48,240
as these zombies on the other side of the main entrance

465
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:49,759
and kind of looks like it's bending

466
00:16:49,759 --> 00:16:52,120
as the zombies behind are trying to push their way

467
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:53,080
into this room.

468
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,360
I have a feeling like our two guys over there are dead.

469
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,919
All right, we gotta fix this ASAP, guys.

470
00:16:57,919 --> 00:16:58,759
Yeah, no kidding.

471
00:16:58,759 --> 00:17:01,039
Is the door behind us closed?

472
00:17:01,039 --> 00:17:04,599
Are you saying they're entering the boardroom door

473
00:17:04,599 --> 00:17:06,079
where we were before?

474
00:17:06,079 --> 00:17:06,920
Yeah, the main door.

475
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,879
So it was barred when Torgar and Osric left,

476
00:17:09,879 --> 00:17:12,640
but the door that you are in is open.

477
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:13,559
You can see that,

478
00:17:13,559 --> 00:17:16,079
but yeah, the door to get into the main room

479
00:17:16,079 --> 00:17:18,200
and you are in this little side room.

480
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:19,440
Okay, well, maybe step one,

481
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,759
I'll turn around and close the door behind me.

482
00:17:21,759 --> 00:17:22,600
Solid.

483
00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,039
I was not born in a barn.

484
00:17:24,039 --> 00:17:26,440
I might've been, but regardless,

485
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,680
it's not much defense, but at least it's something.

486
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,680
So I closed the door.

487
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,039
Door closed.

488
00:17:33,039 --> 00:17:38,039
Now I'm going to try again to get this blue dude.

489
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,140
That does not work because that is 13.

490
00:17:43,140 --> 00:17:44,319
Let me try again.

491
00:17:44,319 --> 00:17:45,279
That one's better.

492
00:17:45,279 --> 00:17:46,559
That's a 28.

493
00:17:46,559 --> 00:17:47,559
Whoa.

494
00:17:47,559 --> 00:17:51,480
Yeah, that connects solid to this blue brain.

495
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,480
So he gets 24 damage.

496
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,440
Oh yeah.

497
00:17:55,440 --> 00:18:00,079
These jars have like ornamental design work to them

498
00:18:00,079 --> 00:18:03,559
and you knock some of it clean off of this jar

499
00:18:03,559 --> 00:18:05,679
as it cracks a little bit as well.

500
00:18:05,679 --> 00:18:09,759
And you move this floating jar back in the room.

501
00:18:09,759 --> 00:18:12,639
It appears that they're floating together now.

502
00:18:13,679 --> 00:18:14,919
Okay, Donnie's going to try

503
00:18:14,919 --> 00:18:17,399
and push that armor off again.

504
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:19,080
I don't know if that's going to do anything,

505
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,200
but it's not like he can attack a jar.

506
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:22,480
He's not very, you know.

507
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:23,519
So why not?

508
00:18:23,519 --> 00:18:24,600
Why not let him try that?

509
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:25,759
Yeah, it does not work.

510
00:18:25,759 --> 00:18:27,480
Did you use both of your attacks?

511
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,800
Yeah, one of them failed and I only rolled a 13.

512
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:31,640
Oh, right, right.

513
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:36,280
Donnie got a like seven or something.

514
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,560
So I don't think that worked.

515
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,580
No, no, same kind of thing.

516
00:18:40,580 --> 00:18:43,880
The green brain this time senses Donnie

517
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,280
and focuses its energy on the shield as well.

518
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:49,599
And Donnie is again deflected away from it.

519
00:18:49,599 --> 00:18:51,480
It's the blue brain's turn now.

520
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:56,480
And it's going to try to cast Crown of Madness

521
00:18:57,519 --> 00:19:00,680
on New Laura.

522
00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:01,839
Yay.

523
00:19:01,839 --> 00:19:05,160
You must make a wisdom saving throw there, New Laura.

524
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:06,720
Okey dokey.

525
00:19:07,839 --> 00:19:09,480
That is a 12.

526
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:12,059
That does not save.

527
00:19:12,059 --> 00:19:16,639
New Laura, you feel control being taken from you.

528
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,400
And Flint and Thea, you look over to her

529
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,480
and you see a twisted Crown of Jagged Iron

530
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,680
appear on top of her head.

531
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:29,200
And madness begins to glow in her eyes.

532
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,200
Good thing she already had her turn.

533
00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:37,759
On your turn, it will tell you to attack someone.

534
00:19:37,759 --> 00:19:38,820
You can't hurt yourself,

535
00:19:38,820 --> 00:19:41,800
but you will be attacking someone that it chooses.

536
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,600
And you do that before you make a move.

537
00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:46,060
And then at the end of your turn,

538
00:19:46,059 --> 00:19:47,500
you can try to make the save again.

539
00:19:47,500 --> 00:19:48,619
Okay.

540
00:19:48,619 --> 00:19:50,220
Well, good thing I'm just hanging out

541
00:19:50,220 --> 00:19:52,379
in the corner of the room by myself.

542
00:19:52,379 --> 00:19:55,859
Everyone just kind of takes a few steps away from New Laura.

543
00:19:55,859 --> 00:19:57,139
Exactly.

544
00:19:57,139 --> 00:20:02,139
The gray brain floats around the room and to Thea here.

545
00:20:02,539 --> 00:20:07,539
Thea, it is going to cast Hold Person on you.

546
00:20:07,659 --> 00:20:10,980
You must succeed on a wisdom saving throw as well.

547
00:20:10,980 --> 00:20:12,019
20.

548
00:20:12,019 --> 00:20:12,919
You succeed.

549
00:20:12,919 --> 00:20:15,500
So you feel it trying to paralyze your body.

550
00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:17,299
I'm like, not today, motherfucker.

551
00:20:17,299 --> 00:20:18,220
Exactly.

552
00:20:18,220 --> 00:20:19,059
And you are-

553
00:20:19,059 --> 00:20:22,299
I was kind of secretly hoping Amy would fail the check

554
00:20:22,299 --> 00:20:23,900
and then Russ would have to pipe in

555
00:20:23,900 --> 00:20:26,859
like Thompson twins hold me down underneath.

556
00:20:28,500 --> 00:20:29,900
Next time, next time.

557
00:20:29,900 --> 00:20:33,140
You save that and now it is Flynn's turn.

558
00:20:33,140 --> 00:20:38,140
I'm going to focus all of my energy on this blue brain

559
00:20:38,140 --> 00:20:41,059
and try and destroy it bigly.

560
00:20:41,059 --> 00:20:41,900
Sure.

561
00:20:41,900 --> 00:20:43,660
Okay, first attack roll.

562
00:20:43,660 --> 00:20:46,460
That is a 16 and seven, 23.

563
00:20:46,460 --> 00:20:48,460
23 will hit, yes.

564
00:20:48,460 --> 00:20:49,740
Excellent.

565
00:20:49,740 --> 00:20:51,340
19 damage.

566
00:20:51,340 --> 00:20:54,019
It is sustaining more cracks in the glass

567
00:20:54,019 --> 00:20:55,500
but it is still floating there.

568
00:20:55,500 --> 00:20:57,300
Oh, there's more of that coming its way though.

569
00:20:57,300 --> 00:20:58,620
I figured, I figured.

570
00:21:00,380 --> 00:21:02,140
So that is a 18.

571
00:21:02,140 --> 00:21:03,800
Come on, 18.

572
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,019
18 deflects.

573
00:21:07,019 --> 00:21:08,140
Boo.

574
00:21:08,140 --> 00:21:10,340
Same kind of thing as when New Laura

575
00:21:10,340 --> 00:21:11,580
threw her daggers.

576
00:21:11,579 --> 00:21:14,419
You swing and you are striking true

577
00:21:14,419 --> 00:21:16,299
but as you get a little bit of ways,

578
00:21:16,299 --> 00:21:19,579
it's deflected by the same kind of magical shield.

579
00:21:19,579 --> 00:21:20,419
Okay.

580
00:21:20,419 --> 00:21:23,539
And it is Green Brain's turn.

581
00:21:23,539 --> 00:21:25,619
Oh, not yet, it isn't.

582
00:21:25,619 --> 00:21:28,339
I'm going to take my action surge

583
00:21:28,339 --> 00:21:30,980
which is one of my special skills.

584
00:21:30,980 --> 00:21:32,579
22, much better.

585
00:21:32,579 --> 00:21:35,259
22 will break the barrier, yes.

586
00:21:35,259 --> 00:21:36,099
19.

587
00:21:36,099 --> 00:21:39,460
You strike through and you feel it cut through

588
00:21:39,500 --> 00:21:42,819
this invisible barrier and it cracks the glass

589
00:21:42,819 --> 00:21:45,920
and it begins actually leaking fluid from it

590
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,819
and it sends it spinning wildly.

591
00:21:48,819 --> 00:21:51,259
I'm going to make a save

592
00:21:51,259 --> 00:21:53,579
to see if he can hold the concentration

593
00:21:53,579 --> 00:21:57,539
and the thorns that are on New Laura's head

594
00:21:57,539 --> 00:21:59,100
shrivel up and disappear.

595
00:21:59,100 --> 00:22:00,140
Yeah.

596
00:22:00,140 --> 00:22:00,980
Yes.

597
00:22:00,980 --> 00:22:02,460
New Laura, you have control back.

598
00:22:02,460 --> 00:22:04,819
It is still floating.

599
00:22:04,819 --> 00:22:06,100
It's losing some fluid

600
00:22:06,100 --> 00:22:08,579
but you are no longer controlled by that brain.

601
00:22:08,579 --> 00:22:10,220
Now it's the Green Brain's turn

602
00:22:10,220 --> 00:22:13,899
and it's going to cast Mind Thrust on Flint.

603
00:22:13,899 --> 00:22:17,579
Flint, you have to make a saving throw

604
00:22:17,579 --> 00:22:20,099
of the wisdom variety.

605
00:22:20,099 --> 00:22:23,500
Oh, my super strongest one, here it goes.

606
00:22:23,500 --> 00:22:24,980
That is a six.

607
00:22:24,980 --> 00:22:28,379
So you are going to take 3d6 psychic damage

608
00:22:28,379 --> 00:22:31,299
off this first Mind Thrust.

609
00:22:31,299 --> 00:22:32,139
First Mind Thrust.

610
00:22:32,139 --> 00:22:32,980
Yeah, I was like what?

611
00:22:32,980 --> 00:22:34,859
Seven, nine.

612
00:22:34,900 --> 00:22:39,220
Well, they each get two Mind Thrusts or a spell.

613
00:22:39,220 --> 00:22:40,700
Okay.

614
00:22:40,700 --> 00:22:43,100
And the second Mind Thrust will be directed at you as well

615
00:22:43,100 --> 00:22:45,420
so make another...

616
00:22:45,420 --> 00:22:48,460
Sorry, that was an intelligence save, not a wisdom save.

617
00:22:48,460 --> 00:22:49,900
Oh, well, it would have been seven,

618
00:22:49,900 --> 00:22:52,380
so it wouldn't have made much of a difference.

619
00:22:52,380 --> 00:22:55,020
So yeah, an intelligence save on this next one here.

620
00:22:55,020 --> 00:22:56,540
Okay.

621
00:22:56,540 --> 00:22:57,380
14.

622
00:22:57,380 --> 00:22:58,820
14 will save.

623
00:22:58,820 --> 00:23:01,780
So you do not take the psychic damage on the second one.

624
00:23:01,780 --> 00:23:03,040
Thea, your turn.

625
00:23:03,039 --> 00:23:05,879
You just had this gray brain try to hold you

626
00:23:05,879 --> 00:23:07,399
and control you.

627
00:23:07,399 --> 00:23:10,839
You see the thorns appear

628
00:23:10,839 --> 00:23:13,599
and madness glow in Nularaaa's eyes

629
00:23:13,599 --> 00:23:16,480
and then disappear as Flint attacks this blue brain

630
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,639
but then crumples under the strain

631
00:23:18,639 --> 00:23:20,720
put on his mind from the green brain.

632
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,240
I am going to...

633
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,799
I still have my moon beam.

634
00:23:25,799 --> 00:23:29,200
When it says I can use an action to move my moon beam.

635
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:30,519
That is your attack action.

636
00:23:30,519 --> 00:23:32,200
That is my attack action, okay.

637
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,160
Because it can move at 60 feet,

638
00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,400
I am going to swing it to the right

639
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,120
to hit the gray dude

640
00:23:38,120 --> 00:23:41,840
and then I'm gonna whip it up to hit the blue dude

641
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,360
because altogether that is less than 60.

642
00:23:44,360 --> 00:23:45,200
Sure.

643
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:46,039
So a con save.

644
00:23:46,039 --> 00:23:49,200
Yes, a constitution saving throw from both those dudes.

645
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,039
Gray dude is a five.

646
00:23:52,039 --> 00:23:54,000
The blue dude is a 17.

647
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:56,559
The 17 will save so he'll take only half damage.

648
00:23:56,559 --> 00:23:58,880
Do I roll two separate damages for them?

649
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,480
One singular damage.

650
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,640
10 for the Bruin guy

651
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,559
and then five for the other guy.

652
00:24:05,559 --> 00:24:07,960
The gray takes this damage

653
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:09,759
and you see kind of the splintering

654
00:24:09,759 --> 00:24:13,120
of these cracks being put into its jar

655
00:24:13,120 --> 00:24:16,079
and the blue, its jar erupts

656
00:24:16,079 --> 00:24:19,279
and the brain falls to the floor with a splat.

657
00:24:19,279 --> 00:24:21,279
And I go somebody curve stomp that thing.

658
00:24:21,279 --> 00:24:23,000
You see it kind of pulse a little bit

659
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,360
and then it stops.

660
00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:26,400
I still want someone to curve stomp.

661
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:27,720
We shoot it twice in the head

662
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:28,839
to make sure that it's dead.

663
00:24:28,839 --> 00:24:30,000
Yeah, for sure.

664
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,359
After you shoot it twice in the head,

665
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,880
it is truly dead, truly dead.

666
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:35,839
Guys, I killed something.

667
00:24:35,839 --> 00:24:37,039
Nicely done.

668
00:24:37,039 --> 00:24:38,200
C-claps for herself.

669
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:42,839
Laura, you hear your communicator fuzz in

670
00:24:42,839 --> 00:24:44,079
and Salazar's like,

671
00:24:44,079 --> 00:24:45,160
Hey, you guys there?

672
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:46,680
Yeah, we're here.

673
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,519
So we just dropped some armor off

674
00:24:49,519 --> 00:24:51,079
with those soldiers out there.

675
00:24:52,079 --> 00:24:53,200
You guys okay?

676
00:24:55,519 --> 00:24:57,759
Been better, little busy.

677
00:24:57,799 --> 00:25:00,640
We're killing some brains.

678
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,160
It's a whole thing.

679
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,799
New communicator, who dis?

680
00:25:05,839 --> 00:25:09,599
There's a horde of horrible zombie creatures

681
00:25:09,599 --> 00:25:12,240
basically right outside the door of the room we're in.

682
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:15,240
So things are not excellent right now.

683
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:20,240
However, I think we found the piece of enchanted armor.

684
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:22,119
Oh, that's good.

685
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,799
All right, well, I'll let you get to it.

686
00:25:24,799 --> 00:25:27,519
Just so you know, they're suiting up right now

687
00:25:27,519 --> 00:25:29,279
and should be heading in to try and help you out

688
00:25:29,279 --> 00:25:30,839
with the hordes,

689
00:25:30,839 --> 00:25:33,279
if nothing else gets taken care of before then.

690
00:25:33,279 --> 00:25:35,160
All right, well, double quick time.

691
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:36,079
Thanks, buddy.

692
00:25:36,079 --> 00:25:37,599
Okay, bye.

693
00:25:37,599 --> 00:25:39,839
You also hear the door outside.

694
00:25:39,839 --> 00:25:42,160
You hear like wood splintering

695
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,279
as the zombies are trying to break through

696
00:25:44,279 --> 00:25:45,400
that front door to that room.

697
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,599
Are they mostly the armored soldiers

698
00:25:48,599 --> 00:25:52,000
or are they like the fucked up mismatched?

699
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,799
When you looked out the front door

700
00:25:53,799 --> 00:25:55,839
and you put the chain lock on,

701
00:25:55,840 --> 00:26:00,000
the majority of them look to be all kind of mismatched

702
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,760
and like they had been being worked on

703
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,040
for quite a while now.

704
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,320
And now it's your turn.

705
00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,920
Okay, then I'm going to attack a brain.

706
00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,800
Otherwise I was gonna try and attack the armor.

707
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,840
But if they're not the soldiers zombies,

708
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,240
like we need to deal with this armor issue,

709
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,120
but you know, they're not the ones

710
00:26:16,120 --> 00:26:19,040
immediately trying to kill us, I don't think.

711
00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,240
So yeah, exactly.

712
00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,759
Gray brain going to,

713
00:26:23,759 --> 00:26:27,759
I'm gonna carve out his amygdala and step on it.

714
00:26:27,759 --> 00:26:28,599
Nice.

715
00:26:28,599 --> 00:26:29,440
Awesome.

716
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,279
That's a 26.

717
00:26:31,279 --> 00:26:32,880
26 will hit.

718
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,279
Okay, that is 16 damage.

719
00:26:35,279 --> 00:26:37,680
More cracks come into the jar.

720
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,559
And again, you see some of the fluid

721
00:26:39,559 --> 00:26:42,000
beginning to leak from some of those edges.

722
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:43,960
Not a lot, but some coming through.

723
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:44,799
Great.

724
00:26:44,799 --> 00:26:47,160
Let's see if we can't make that splat on the ground.

725
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:51,039
That is a 18.

726
00:26:51,079 --> 00:26:54,279
18 deflects off of its shield spell.

727
00:26:54,279 --> 00:26:58,519
Balls is what I say to that.

728
00:26:58,519 --> 00:26:59,519
Of course.

729
00:26:59,519 --> 00:27:01,440
Since there's some cracks in it now,

730
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,480
I think Donnie can kind of try

731
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,480
and get in there a little bit

732
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,319
rather than just attacking smooth glass.

733
00:27:09,319 --> 00:27:12,159
I think he has like a barb on the end of his tail

734
00:27:12,159 --> 00:27:14,000
that he uses when he stings.

735
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,200
So I don't know, let's give it a shot.

736
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,079
See if he can crack open that glass.

737
00:27:21,399 --> 00:27:23,480
Nope, that's a 17.

738
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:27,519
17 also will deflect off of the invisible shield.

739
00:27:27,519 --> 00:27:31,759
And now it is the gray brain's turn.

740
00:27:31,759 --> 00:27:36,440
It's going to cast Mind Slave on Thea.

741
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:37,839
It can try.

742
00:27:37,839 --> 00:27:42,839
Oh, you can cast a wisdom saving throw.

743
00:27:45,159 --> 00:27:46,480
28.

744
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,519
All right, it does not cast.

745
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:53,440
It appears to be losing more fluid than it thought.

746
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:58,160
And you are not under its slavy spell.

747
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,400
That's what I thought.

748
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:01,440
Flint, your turn.

749
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,200
I have a plus eight wisdom saving throw.

750
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,119
That is amazing.

751
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,680
Am I right in assuming that these brains

752
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,279
are floating in like Barbasol?

753
00:28:10,279 --> 00:28:11,879
Absolutely.

754
00:28:11,879 --> 00:28:14,000
Okay, because that's what's happening in my head.

755
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:17,879
Are there a few like combs and like scissors in there too?

756
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,720
So I guess I should try and kill the gray brain.

757
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,280
Yes, no, maybe so.

758
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,120
Yeah, because I bet you could kill it in,

759
00:28:25,120 --> 00:28:27,280
like if you make contact, it'll be dead.

760
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,040
Excellent, let's go with a real Salazar on this one

761
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:32,040
and steal the kill.

762
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:34,560
That's a 23.

763
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:35,560
23 will hit.

764
00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,920
I kind of imagined Salazar piping in

765
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,440
through the communicator going, I heard that.

766
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,280
So that's 21 damage.

767
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:46,120
Nice.

768
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:47,400
So you run over from the other side

769
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,000
of the room there, take a giant leaping swing

770
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:55,200
and carve through this glass that explodes its fluid

771
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,040
over Thea and Nulara.

772
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,840
And the brain itself explodes as well.

773
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,800
So you've got, you killed it,

774
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,160
but you covered everybody in brain guts.

775
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,120
Just a real mess around here.

776
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:10,040
Sorry, peeps.

777
00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:11,000
Yeah.

778
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,880
Can I like hear if the crazy mob outside

779
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,320
is like still coming after us?

780
00:29:16,319 --> 00:29:17,879
Is there any noise that they're making?

781
00:29:17,879 --> 00:29:21,519
It's just this constant banging against the door

782
00:29:21,519 --> 00:29:25,679
and wood splintering as the door is bowing

783
00:29:25,679 --> 00:29:27,200
and cracking inwards.

784
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,119
Okay, so they're still real thirsty.

785
00:29:29,119 --> 00:29:29,960
Yeah.

786
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:33,879
Okay, I'm gonna try like knocking this armor

787
00:29:33,879 --> 00:29:35,720
off of the pedestal,

788
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,919
see if maybe that might help alleviate problems.

789
00:29:38,919 --> 00:29:39,759
Sure.

790
00:29:39,759 --> 00:29:41,279
Do it.

791
00:29:41,279 --> 00:29:44,799
Okay, that is a 24.

792
00:29:44,799 --> 00:29:47,079
24, yeah, you'll hit it.

793
00:29:47,079 --> 00:29:48,200
Okay.

794
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,599
Now, am I just trying to like do damage to this

795
00:29:50,599 --> 00:29:52,440
or what do I wanna do with this?

796
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,359
Does anyone have any suggestions?

797
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,200
Not really.

798
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,680
Like I guess, I guess destroy it.

799
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,440
Like I don't, as much as you can destroy armor,

800
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:06,879
like I was thinking the brains somehow were,

801
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,639
I don't know, making, but they're not, right?

802
00:30:10,639 --> 00:30:12,440
Like they're just putting protection on it.

803
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,759
They weren't enchanting it, I don't think.

804
00:30:15,759 --> 00:30:17,279
I kind of figured that like, yeah,

805
00:30:17,279 --> 00:30:20,000
the three of them were like enchanting it together

806
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:22,640
and maybe once we killed one or two, that might stop.

807
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:27,039
Yeah, me too, but so far that has not happened.

808
00:30:28,279 --> 00:30:30,319
So I think they're just protecting it.

809
00:30:30,319 --> 00:30:32,279
I'll just try and do as much damage as possible

810
00:30:32,279 --> 00:30:36,160
and maybe knock it off of its pedestal.

811
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:37,920
Can really cut it down a peg, am I right?

812
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,039
Yeah, totally.

813
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:41,480
19 damage.

814
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:45,400
You strike this armor and it throws it across the room

815
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:49,480
and bounces off the wall and lands near one of the spires.

816
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,839
And as you do this, the spires,

817
00:30:51,839 --> 00:30:54,360
they have like writings carved into them

818
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,039
and they begin to glow.

819
00:30:56,039 --> 00:31:00,360
And you hear a louder crash coming from the other room

820
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,160
as the zombies begin to pour into the room.

821
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,559
But it's no longer on that pedestal.

822
00:31:06,559 --> 00:31:07,400
Great.

823
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:09,839
We did it guys.

824
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:15,040
You successfully moved it from one place to another.

825
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:16,920
So wait, are these pedestal things

826
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,000
that we can be like beating the crap out of?

827
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,160
Now that I see that there are like carvings in them

828
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,040
that may be a magical variety,

829
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:28,520
we might want to do that perhaps.

830
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:29,440
Maybe?

831
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:30,960
Maybe.

832
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,160
So it's the green brain's turn.

833
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,000
Are you sure?

834
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:35,680
I feel like I haven't had a turn in a long time.

835
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:36,520
You're at the end.

836
00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:38,840
You should roll better if you want turns.

837
00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,760
You did roll a one on initiative.

838
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:42,920
Technically it was a two

839
00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,680
because I have plus one initiative bonus.

840
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:46,880
But you rolled a one.

841
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:48,800
Yeah, I did.

842
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,040
Flint, make a wisdom save.

843
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,400
All right.

844
00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,560
Are you sure it's wisdom and not intelligence?

845
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,400
This time it is wisdom.

846
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,320
Okay, just wanted to double check.

847
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:00,160
Yep.

848
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,840
That is a 14.

849
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:08,320
You feel like you want to follow

850
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,440
the directions of this brain.

851
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:11,400
Okey dokey.

852
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,760
You have been mindslaved by the green brain

853
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,680
and it is Thea's turn.

854
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:17,520
Okay.

855
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:21,120
I'm going to move my moon beam over.

856
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:21,960
There we go.

857
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,520
Right on top of the green brain.

858
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:24,360
Great.

859
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:25,800
Constitution save.

860
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:26,840
She needs to make a,

861
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,040
it needs to make a constitution saving throw.

862
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,000
Oof, four.

863
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,560
Yeah, no, that's not gonna do it.

864
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:32,800
Yeah.

865
00:32:32,799 --> 00:32:35,519
So, he takes five damage.

866
00:32:35,519 --> 00:32:36,359
Yeah.

867
00:32:36,359 --> 00:32:37,919
Is that enough to break his concentration

868
00:32:37,919 --> 00:32:39,759
on whatever he's going with Flint?

869
00:32:39,759 --> 00:32:40,680
That was my aim.

870
00:32:41,759 --> 00:32:42,599
That was my goal.

871
00:32:42,599 --> 00:32:43,559
Nope.

872
00:32:43,559 --> 00:32:44,399
Damn.

873
00:32:45,279 --> 00:32:46,119
Sorry buddy.

874
00:32:46,119 --> 00:32:47,079
Back to Nulara now.

875
00:32:47,079 --> 00:32:49,960
And you now hear the groans

876
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,720
and the zombies screams.

877
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,799
Whereas before they weren't,

878
00:32:54,799 --> 00:32:57,639
they weren't like mindless zombies.

879
00:32:57,639 --> 00:33:02,480
Now they just, it sounds like they are more,

880
00:33:02,519 --> 00:33:04,680
more mindless than what they were before.

881
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:08,839
But you hear those coming in into the room now

882
00:33:08,839 --> 00:33:11,360
as this door has been broken down.

883
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:13,079
Fuck.

884
00:33:14,799 --> 00:33:16,400
I don't know what to do.

885
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:17,960
Hey, what happens with that moon beam?

886
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:22,960
Like, can I attack that brain or is it on it?

887
00:33:24,279 --> 00:33:26,000
Like, what's the story?

888
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,559
Is it still like stuck in a moon beam?

889
00:33:29,559 --> 00:33:30,400
There.

890
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:31,240
No, sorry.

891
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,480
I didn't need to drop it on it.

892
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:35,319
Oh, okay.

893
00:33:35,319 --> 00:33:37,240
I swept it over it.

894
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:38,240
Sorry.

895
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:39,920
I was just mad.

896
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:41,160
Fair enough.

897
00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:42,240
It's free to fight.

898
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:44,480
Okay.

899
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,039
I'm going to attack the brain.

900
00:33:49,079 --> 00:33:51,640
That is a 20.

901
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:53,200
20 will hit, yes.

902
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:54,039
Is that a question?

903
00:33:54,039 --> 00:33:54,880
Okay.

904
00:33:54,880 --> 00:33:57,400
It was a question if it was going to hit or not

905
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,480
because it's got dumb deflection going.

906
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:01,720
13 damage.

907
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,519
Does that break its concentration?

908
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:05,960
Hold on.

909
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,079
If you don't ask, he doesn't roll for it.

910
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:11,039
I'm learning this.

911
00:34:11,039 --> 00:34:11,880
This is good.

912
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,559
Doesn't break his concentration.

913
00:34:16,559 --> 00:34:17,400
He's got the worst side on you guys.

914
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,519
Doesn't break his concentration.

915
00:34:19,519 --> 00:34:20,360
Okay.

916
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,639
Ain't nobody going to break his stride.

917
00:34:22,639 --> 00:34:25,360
Nobody going to hold him down.

918
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,199
He's got to keep on moving.

919
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:29,639
Okay.

920
00:34:29,799 --> 00:34:30,839
You want to take another swing there?

921
00:34:30,839 --> 00:34:32,359
Yeah, I do.

922
00:34:32,359 --> 00:34:34,559
I'm just so torn because I want to do something

923
00:34:34,559 --> 00:34:37,199
with the pillars because like a million zombies

924
00:34:37,199 --> 00:34:39,440
is worse than one brain and one Flint,

925
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:43,039
but Flint's my dude so I don't want to have to fight him.

926
00:34:43,039 --> 00:34:44,359
So it's a 21.

927
00:34:44,359 --> 00:34:46,239
21 will hit, yep.

928
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:47,719
12 damage.

929
00:34:47,719 --> 00:34:48,559
Okay.

930
00:34:48,559 --> 00:34:51,159
And concentration.

931
00:34:51,159 --> 00:34:55,519
Flint, you feel your control come back to you.

932
00:34:55,519 --> 00:34:56,799
Yay.

933
00:34:56,799 --> 00:34:57,759
Nice.

934
00:34:57,759 --> 00:34:58,799
Thank goodness.

935
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,240
Okay, I guess Donnie's going to try for this jar

936
00:35:01,240 --> 00:35:04,360
because I don't know what else he could do.

937
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:05,200
I don't know.

938
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:06,039
Donnie's got claws.

939
00:35:06,039 --> 00:35:08,280
Maybe he tries to like slash through

940
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,080
some of that glowing writing on that spire.

941
00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:11,920
Good idea.

942
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,320
That does not work, but he's tried.

943
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:16,600
He just got a manicure.

944
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:18,960
So he's a little worried about his nails.

945
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,080
He only rolled a six.

946
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:22,240
Although to be fair,

947
00:35:22,240 --> 00:35:24,840
we haven't done any rolls against those pillars yet.

948
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,080
So maybe a six will hit.

949
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:26,960
Yeah, true.

950
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:27,800
It's true.

951
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:30,000
Me being like, I want to hit this wall.

952
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,680
So he goes up and like scratches at it,

953
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:36,600
but it's stone so it doesn't really do much of anything.

954
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:39,360
Oh, but the actions you just did were great.

955
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:41,800
Like a T-Rex attacking a wall.

956
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:43,320
Oh, I love it.

957
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:46,600
Flint, you feel the control come back to your body

958
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,160
and you kind of take a little step

959
00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:53,480
as you see Donnie T-Rex attacking this spire

960
00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:55,240
and Yular attacking the green brain

961
00:35:55,240 --> 00:35:57,320
with Thea's moonbeam still in the room

962
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,720
and the moaning of these zombies

963
00:35:59,720 --> 00:36:02,720
on the other side of the door getting louder and louder

964
00:36:02,720 --> 00:36:04,920
as you can picture in your mind

965
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,720
that there are a lot of them coming in.

966
00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:11,240
I'm going to move in between this pillar

967
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,000
and close to the armor

968
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:18,440
if I need to make a switch in tactics here.

969
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:19,440
Yep.

970
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,480
I'm going to swing my axe as hard

971
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,080
as I fucking can at this pillar.

972
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:25,080
Sure.

973
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:26,640
The swearing was for emphasis.

974
00:36:26,679 --> 00:36:27,679
Of course.

975
00:36:27,679 --> 00:36:29,279
That is a 24.

976
00:36:29,279 --> 00:36:31,319
24, yeah, you'll hit it.

977
00:36:31,319 --> 00:36:32,319
All right.

978
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,480
Big damage, 20.

979
00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:36,319
Nice.

980
00:36:36,319 --> 00:36:41,319
You strike this spire on the far side there

981
00:36:41,319 --> 00:36:45,359
and it fractures some of the stone

982
00:36:45,359 --> 00:36:48,719
and the glowing in the ruins that are inscribed in it

983
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,960
begins to fade on that side.

984
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,559
It's still bright on the other side,

985
00:36:53,559 --> 00:36:54,679
but it begins to fade.

986
00:36:55,399 --> 00:36:58,079
I'm close enough to get to the other side of it, no?

987
00:36:58,079 --> 00:36:58,919
Yep.

988
00:36:58,919 --> 00:36:59,759
I should be clear.

989
00:36:59,759 --> 00:37:00,599
They're still glowing.

990
00:37:00,599 --> 00:37:02,279
It's just not as bright.

991
00:37:02,279 --> 00:37:03,359
Oh, they're still glowing.

992
00:37:03,359 --> 00:37:04,199
Yeah.

993
00:37:04,199 --> 00:37:05,039
Okay.

994
00:37:05,039 --> 00:37:06,279
Well, I'll just remain on that side then

995
00:37:06,279 --> 00:37:08,039
and try and get them to stop glowing.

996
00:37:08,039 --> 00:37:08,879
Shooters.

997
00:37:08,879 --> 00:37:12,440
So it was a 25 on the attack roll.

998
00:37:12,440 --> 00:37:14,399
That will hit, yep.

999
00:37:14,399 --> 00:37:16,440
I would hope so, 16.

1000
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,039
You strike in the same spot

1001
00:37:19,039 --> 00:37:21,440
and it splinters all the way up,

1002
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:25,840
but seems like it's being held together

1003
00:37:25,840 --> 00:37:28,720
as just there's a very dim light

1004
00:37:28,720 --> 00:37:31,840
being emitted from the inscriptions on this spire.

1005
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:37,360
Bullshit.

1006
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:42,360
Please leave that extremely long pregnant pause.

1007
00:37:46,679 --> 00:37:48,000
Please don't edit that out.

1008
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,000
No, yeah, that's fine.

1009
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:50,840
That's good.

1010
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,160
Damn it, this is stressful.

1011
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,559
These zombies screaming in the next room.

1012
00:37:56,559 --> 00:37:59,039
Guys, guys, I have a trick up my sleeve.

1013
00:37:59,039 --> 00:38:00,840
I'm very excited about it.

1014
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,079
It's not your turn.

1015
00:38:02,079 --> 00:38:02,920
Oh, Jesus.

1016
00:38:04,519 --> 00:38:06,240
Amy, wait your fucking turn.

1017
00:38:06,240 --> 00:38:08,600
It's gonna have to fucking wait, all right?

1018
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:09,440
Okay, fine.

1019
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,840
So the green brain is going to-

1020
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:13,680
Murder Thea.

1021
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:19,840
Give your mind thrust on Flint and Nulara there.

1022
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:21,880
Ooh, a double mind thrust.

1023
00:38:23,039 --> 00:38:25,880
So you guys have to make a wisdom save.

1024
00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:26,720
Okay, it's okay.

1025
00:38:26,720 --> 00:38:28,320
No, this one's intelligence, isn't it?

1026
00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,519
This one's, oh yeah, this one's intelligence.

1027
00:38:31,519 --> 00:38:32,360
It's intelligence.

1028
00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:33,720
It's intelligence save.

1029
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:36,039
12.

1030
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:38,440
12 as well.

1031
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,880
Both of you take full damage.

1032
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:46,880
So on Flint, 11, 14 psychic damage.

1033
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:49,400
Go.

1034
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:50,240
Splitting heads.

1035
00:38:50,240 --> 00:38:51,599
It was much worse than the first time.

1036
00:38:51,599 --> 00:38:53,320
Yeah, well, roll better.

1037
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,840
Nulara, you take seven psychic damage.

1038
00:38:57,840 --> 00:38:59,519
Amy, I'm gonna need you to start rolling

1039
00:38:59,519 --> 00:39:01,160
Russ's damage rolls for us.

1040
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:02,000
Right?

1041
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:04,880
But that's okay,

1042
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:06,639
because this one doesn't control our brains.

1043
00:39:06,639 --> 00:39:08,920
It just gives us damage, and that's fine.

1044
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:09,760
That's true.

1045
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:10,599
That's true.

1046
00:39:10,599 --> 00:39:11,519
I wouldn't want to fight both of you guys.

1047
00:39:11,519 --> 00:39:12,639
That would suck a lot.

1048
00:39:12,639 --> 00:39:15,639
Because now we can focus on what I think is important,

1049
00:39:15,639 --> 00:39:19,200
which is stopping the murderous ward outside.

1050
00:39:19,680 --> 00:39:21,240
Oh, and that too.

1051
00:39:21,240 --> 00:39:22,760
All right, well, to help with all of this,

1052
00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:27,760
I'm going to conjure two minor elementals.

1053
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:29,760
About damn time.

1054
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:30,600
Okay.

1055
00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:33,520
They are going to be like earth rock elementals.

1056
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,160
Tell me what the rating is for two of them.

1057
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:39,040
Two elemental challenge rating, one or lower.

1058
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:42,920
If you cast things that are one or lower,

1059
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:47,920
you have access to dust methods or mud methods.

1060
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,000
What, like, what are they?

1061
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,360
Can I look at their stats and their skills?

1062
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:58,840
Sorry, what elemental can I have

1063
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:01,280
at a challenge rating of two?

1064
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:02,840
Gargoyle.

1065
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:04,079
Oh, fuck yeah.

1066
00:40:04,079 --> 00:40:05,920
Think maybe one that's really powerful

1067
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,320
might be more beneficial than two.

1068
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:09,639
Methods are small, small things.

1069
00:40:09,639 --> 00:40:10,920
Two that are little.

1070
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:12,720
So let's go for a gargoyle.

1071
00:40:12,720 --> 00:40:15,680
He has a multi-attack bite and claws.

1072
00:40:15,679 --> 00:40:19,759
Okay, he needs to be rolled into the initiative roll.

1073
00:40:21,319 --> 00:40:22,159
At a nine.

1074
00:40:22,159 --> 00:40:23,759
Look at me playing by the rules.

1075
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,719
He will go after Flint.

1076
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:31,559
You cast this spell.

1077
00:40:31,559 --> 00:40:35,839
Energy kind of pours out into the room and swirls,

1078
00:40:35,839 --> 00:40:37,719
and there's a window in this room,

1079
00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:40,679
and it bursts open as one of the statues

1080
00:40:40,679 --> 00:40:43,279
that you've seen outside of the building

1081
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:46,480
flies into the room,

1082
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:51,480
and you now have this stone gargoyle ready to attack.

1083
00:40:51,519 --> 00:40:52,360
Nice.

1084
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:58,600
Hey there, I'm your dungeon master, Russ More.

1085
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,480
Thank you for joining us and continuing on this journey

1086
00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,040
for episode 19 of Dumbgeons and Dragons

1087
00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,120
titled Battle of the Brains.

1088
00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,760
As we mentioned already, this episode is early,

1089
00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:10,000
and it's for good reason.

1090
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,880
Today is the launch day of our Patreon page.

1091
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,640
We're very excited and hope that you'll be too.

1092
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:17,800
We are aiming to expand our community,

1093
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:21,119
and in turn, have you more involved with the show and us

1094
00:41:21,119 --> 00:41:24,519
as we create more amazing content for you.

1095
00:41:24,519 --> 00:41:26,119

which will include another show beginning this month.

1102
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,000
This new show will be DMed by Tom Laird,

1103
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:46,599
AKA Flint Firebeard,

1104
00:41:46,599 --> 00:41:48,760
and we will be giving you a taste of it

1105
00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:52,119
with the first episode in two weeks on this channel.

1106
00:41:52,119 --> 00:41:55,240
But from then on, it'll be a Patreon only endeavor.

1107
00:41:55,240 --> 00:41:56,559
So if you want to hear more,

1108
00:41:56,559 --> 00:42:00,039
please check out Patreon.com slash dumbdragoncast.

1109
00:42:00,039 --> 00:42:02,280
And this is the first of many games or shows

1110
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:03,480
we're trying to put together,

1111
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,800
and we want to hear what you want to hear.

1112
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,000
We plan to try out new RPG systems

1113
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:11,000
in hopes that we can create new and interesting stories

1114
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,880
in different settings and give you a chance

1115
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:14,599
to hear new game styles and mechanics

1116
00:42:14,599 --> 00:42:17,920
that will maybe give you ideas for your own games,

1117
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,000
or it might give you a feel for another system

1118
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,360
that you've been meaning to try,

1119
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,159
but just weren't sure on.

1120
00:42:23,159 --> 00:42:26,360
We do have higher tiers, a $5 and a $10 tier,

1121
00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:28,559
with more opportunities to be involved with the show,

1122
00:42:28,559 --> 00:42:32,199
including show dedications or being named an NPC

1123
00:42:32,199 --> 00:42:35,480
or providing questions for a future Q&A episode.

1124
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:37,760
Our hope is that we build a fun

1125
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,360
and inclusive community with Dumbgeons and Dragons

1126
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,800
that is able to grow and become a huge part

1127
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,560
of many people's lives, including yours.

1128

If you can't donate, we totally understand.

1129
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:49,280
But what you can do to help us

1130
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,240
is continue spreading the word about Dumbgeons and Dragons

1131
00:42:52,240 --> 00:42:55,200

of the dumb dragon community, we would love to have you.

1136
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:07,520
Our next episode is that special Patreon only preview episode,

1137
00:43:07,519 --> 00:43:08,800
which will have a title

1138
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:11,800
by the time it comes out on August 16th, I promise.

1139
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:13,119
Then the next regular episode

1140
00:43:13,119 --> 00:43:15,880
will be available August 30th.

1141
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:17,239
Let's get back to the brain brawl

1142
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,079
and see if the adventurers have the smarts

1143
00:43:19,079 --> 00:43:21,360
to outwit the brains and the horde.

1144
00:43:21,360 --> 00:43:23,079
And the horde, don't forget those guys.

1145
00:43:23,079 --> 00:43:24,199
Have a great couple of weeks.

1146
00:43:24,199 --> 00:43:25,480
Talk to you soon.

1147
00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:30,480
Guys, I just got a tiny glimpse of like the side

1148
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:35,519
of Preston's computer and what's going on here.

1149
00:43:35,519 --> 00:43:36,719
You can see it on your computer.

1150
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:37,559
Can I?

1151
00:43:37,559 --> 00:43:39,000
Oh, if you just scroll down on the map,

1152
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,159
it's a full horde of zombies coming at us.

1153
00:43:41,159 --> 00:43:44,320
Oh shit, those are scary.

1154
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,159
I had nightmares about zombies last night.

1155
00:43:46,159 --> 00:43:49,800
Well, it's not my intent to line that up, but you know.

1156
00:43:49,800 --> 00:43:51,800
It was really just a prequel of sorts.

1157
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,480
Lara, it is your turn as the groaning

1158
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:56,679
sounds like it's getting closer to the door

1159
00:43:56,679 --> 00:43:57,719
where you guys are in.

1160
00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,280
Fuck some shit up.

1161
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:03,360
God, by what you mean.

1162
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:05,719
Hit a stone pillar.

1163
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:07,480
That's exactly what I mean.

1164
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,280
Beat the shit out of that inanimate object.

1165
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:13,039
Yep, I'm gonna, I'm gonna do my very, very best.

1166
00:44:13,039 --> 00:44:14,519
That is a 21.

1167
00:44:14,519 --> 00:44:17,519
On the stone pillar, yeah, 21 will hit her.

1168
00:44:17,519 --> 00:44:20,039
Great, 12 damage.

1169
00:44:20,039 --> 00:44:21,480
Same kind of thing that Flint saw.

1170
00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,719
You crack the stone that's making this statue

1171
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:28,119
and the writings begin to fade.

1172
00:44:28,119 --> 00:44:30,840
When they fade this time,

1173
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,800
it kind of sounds like the zombies themselves,

1174
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:37,960
their groaning fades and then comes back a little bit.

1175
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,519
Okay, let me do that again, but better.

1176
00:44:41,519 --> 00:44:43,119
Gonna hit that crit 20.

1177
00:44:43,119 --> 00:44:45,719
I didn't, but 23.

1178
00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:46,559
Yep.

1179
00:44:46,559 --> 00:44:47,639
Good enough.

1180
00:44:47,639 --> 00:44:49,039
19 damage.

1181
00:44:49,039 --> 00:44:50,840
Same kind of thing you saw with Flint's

1182
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:52,280
on his second strike.

1183
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:54,039
It cracks further up.

1184
00:44:54,039 --> 00:44:56,120
The writing fades out as well,

1185
00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:59,840
but it appears that something is still holding

1186
00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:02,079
these statues together.

1187
00:45:02,079 --> 00:45:04,200
And same thing happens again.

1188
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,480
The groans fade a little bit, but then come back

1189
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:11,519
as you hear footsteps coming closer to the door.

1190
00:45:11,519 --> 00:45:15,160
Okay, well, I guess Donny's gonna try

1191
00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:18,400
and hit that brain because he won't have any luck

1192
00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:19,519
against the stone.

1193
00:45:19,519 --> 00:45:22,000
I don't think, or the brain,

1194
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:23,960
because that's an eight.

1195
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:24,800
Poor Donny.

1196
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,559
He's not doing so good this time.

1197
00:45:27,559 --> 00:45:30,199
So he's just kind of flying around this brain here.

1198
00:45:30,199 --> 00:45:31,840
He's kind of freaking out with all those

1199
00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:33,039
zombies out there. Yeah, no doubt.

1200
00:45:33,039 --> 00:45:34,960
He's having a hard time.

1201
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,320
Can't wait till the gargoyle gets to go.

1202
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,199
Flint, it's your turn.

1203
00:45:40,199 --> 00:45:45,199
And after you hear Nylar striking this other spire,

1204
00:45:45,519 --> 00:45:47,679
you hear from out in the courtyard

1205
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:52,599
the cry of the remaining members of the acts of Mirabar

1206
00:45:52,599 --> 00:45:56,359
as they engage in battle with the zombies

1207
00:45:56,359 --> 00:45:58,119
that are still outside there.

1208
00:45:58,119 --> 00:45:58,960
Nice.

1209
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:02,480
But they have arrived on the scene from what you can hear

1210
00:46:02,480 --> 00:46:04,719
and they are battling from the other side

1211
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:06,480
of the zombie horde.

1212
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,199
And it is your turn.

1213
00:46:08,199 --> 00:46:13,199
Okay, now with the pillars, they're still standing,

1214
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,919
but they seem less functional than they did before.

1215
00:46:15,919 --> 00:46:16,839
Is that correct?

1216
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,120
Yeah, the runes, where they were glowing brightly,

1217
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:22,840
they are, the writings are fading.

1218
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:26,120
Okay, I'm going to take another big swing

1219
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:27,600
at the pillar that's in front of me

1220
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,600
and try and knock it down.

1221
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,200
He came in like a wrecking ball.

1222
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,280
That's exactly correct.

1223
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:37,440
So that's a 21.

1224
00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:38,280
21 will hit it, yeah.

1225
00:46:38,280 --> 00:46:39,120
I mean, don't get me wrong.

1226
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:40,400
I prefer party in the USA,

1227
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,440
but wrecking ball works for the themes.

1228
00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:43,400
Of course, yes.

1229
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:44,240
The imagery.

1230
00:46:44,240 --> 00:46:45,160
All right, oh, it's a one,

1231
00:46:45,159 --> 00:46:46,839
but I get to reroll that damage.

1232
00:46:46,839 --> 00:46:51,839
Score, 10 and 12 is 22 and four is 26.

1233
00:46:52,559 --> 00:46:53,759
Ooh, baby.

1234
00:46:53,759 --> 00:46:56,319
This spire crumbles.

1235
00:46:56,319 --> 00:46:59,639
It's not being held together by anything anymore

1236
00:46:59,639 --> 00:47:04,359
and it falls to the ground in a dusty,

1237
00:47:04,359 --> 00:47:05,960
small pebbly shape.

1238
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:07,759
It kind of just disintegrates,

1239
00:47:07,759 --> 00:47:10,639
but you still hear the same kind of thing.

1240
00:47:10,639 --> 00:47:13,199
The zombies get super quiet,

1241
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,560
but then pick back up a little bit.

1242
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:19,920
Okay, I'm going to head on over to the other pillar

1243
00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,920
and try and knock this one down as well.

1244
00:47:26,560 --> 00:47:28,240
That's a 19.

1245
00:47:28,240 --> 00:47:30,600
19 is deflected off of the-

1246
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:31,440
Fuck!

1247
00:47:31,440 --> 00:47:32,680
I mean, okay.

1248
00:47:35,360 --> 00:47:36,800
Off of the shield that appears

1249
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:38,880
to be holding this rune together.

1250
00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:43,120
With that strike, you hear what sounds like Torgar

1251
00:47:44,039 --> 00:47:45,279
yelling a battle cry,

1252
00:47:45,279 --> 00:47:47,000
for Mirabar!

1253
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,639
And then there's this explosion

1254
00:47:49,639 --> 00:47:53,279
as it sounds like the floor on this level

1255
00:47:53,279 --> 00:47:56,920
has crumbled inward and down to the floor below.

1256
00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:58,559
And a lot of the sound from the zombies

1257
00:47:58,559 --> 00:48:01,079
feels like it has moved somewhere else.

1258
00:48:01,079 --> 00:48:03,039
But there are still zombies on the other side of the-

1259
00:48:03,039 --> 00:48:04,519
Don't worry, guys, there's still zombies there.

1260
00:48:04,519 --> 00:48:05,719
Yeah, don't worry.

1261
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:06,559
Gargoyle.

1262
00:48:06,559 --> 00:48:07,400
Gargoyle.

1263
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:08,480
Okay, the Gargoyle-

1264
00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:09,679
Come on, Gargoyle.

1265
00:48:09,679 --> 00:48:13,239
It's going to attack the stone pillar

1266
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,199
because it seems very important.

1267
00:48:15,199 --> 00:48:18,079
So first it's going to bite at it.

1268
00:48:18,079 --> 00:48:19,279
22.

1269
00:48:19,279 --> 00:48:20,679
22 will bite, yeah.

1270
00:48:20,679 --> 00:48:22,480
Go, Gargoyle!

1271
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:23,559
For seven damage.

1272
00:48:23,559 --> 00:48:26,159
The pillar crumbles a little bit more,

1273
00:48:26,159 --> 00:48:27,199
but it's still standing

1274
00:48:27,199 --> 00:48:29,399
and the runes glow a little less brightly,

1275
00:48:29,399 --> 00:48:30,319
but still bright.

1276
00:48:30,319 --> 00:48:32,599
He's going to do it again, only with his claws.

1277
00:48:32,599 --> 00:48:33,440
Okay.

1278
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:34,259
17.

1279
00:48:34,259 --> 00:48:36,759
17 will not break through the barrier that is there.

1280
00:48:36,759 --> 00:48:38,279
Man.

1281
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:39,800
Greenbrain's turn.

1282
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,240
Damn Greenbrain.

1283
00:48:41,240 --> 00:48:44,240
Damn Greenbraaaain.

1284
00:48:44,240 --> 00:48:45,960
Oh, he's got a theme song?

1285
00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:47,400
Yeah, he does now.

1286
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:48,640
He's the last standing brain,

1287
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:51,000
so you got to go out with the glory.

1288
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,000
Flint, make a wisdom saving throw.

1289
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,080
He's going to try and mindslave you.

1290
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:55,920
Damn it.

1291
00:48:57,080 --> 00:48:57,920
Oh, shit!

1292
00:48:57,920 --> 00:48:59,000
17.

1293
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:00,240
Okay, you saved.

1294
00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:03,240
Oh, he's so disappointed.

1295
00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,320
Well, I mean, wisdom's my worst one,

1296
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:08,960
but that was a good roll.

1297
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:09,800
Yeah, you're up, Thea.

1298
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:10,640
Hey!

1299
00:49:10,640 --> 00:49:13,680
Okay, so I don't really have anything

1300
00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:16,480
to hit this pillar with.

1301
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,720
What about your Cure Wounds spell?

1302
00:49:19,720 --> 00:49:21,280
Do you still have that going on?

1303
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:23,240
I can't do it.

1304
00:49:23,240 --> 00:49:24,440
Oh, you already used it?

1305
00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:27,480
Yeah, it was a fifth spell slot

1306
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:28,680
and I only have one.

1307
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:34,120
I'm going to Thunderwave the Greenbrain.

1308
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,519
What's the range and stuff on your Thunderwave?

1309
00:49:36,559 --> 00:49:39,239
I'm going to go over here, 15 feet.

1310
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:41,360
So this would reach him, right?

1311
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:42,199
Yep.

1312
00:49:42,199 --> 00:49:43,679
Okay.

1313
00:49:43,679 --> 00:49:47,759
So I think you have to make a saving throw

1314
00:49:47,759 --> 00:49:50,239
of the Constitution variety.

1315
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:53,960
It's its favorite, seven.

1316
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:54,960
That didn't work.

1317
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:56,679
2d8 Thunder Damage.

1318
00:49:56,679 --> 00:49:57,519
On a failed save.

1319
00:49:57,519 --> 00:49:58,360
Yeah.

1320
00:49:58,360 --> 00:49:59,199
Good.

1321
00:49:59,199 --> 00:50:00,759
And it's pushed 10 feet away from you.

1322
00:50:00,759 --> 00:50:02,639
Yes, 11.

1323
00:50:02,639 --> 00:50:05,079
The wave of force comes out from you

1324
00:50:05,079 --> 00:50:08,559
and knocks this Greenbrain into the wall behind you.

1325
00:50:08,559 --> 00:50:09,799
Roll a d6.

1326
00:50:09,799 --> 00:50:10,639
One!

1327
00:50:10,639 --> 00:50:12,599
All right, and it takes an extra one damage.

1328
00:50:12,599 --> 00:50:13,440
Ha ha ha!

1329
00:50:15,759 --> 00:50:17,440
As is theist style.

1330
00:50:17,440 --> 00:50:20,159
You get bonus points for being so happy about it though.

1331
00:50:20,159 --> 00:50:21,119
Ha ha ha!

1332
00:50:21,119 --> 00:50:24,519
But it appears this one is a little bit,

1333
00:50:24,519 --> 00:50:25,679
it's more firmly built

1334
00:50:25,679 --> 00:50:28,519
and no cracks have appeared in the glass yet.

1335
00:50:28,519 --> 00:50:30,079
Wow, this is good craftsmanship right here.

1336
00:50:30,079 --> 00:50:31,239
I know, right?

1337
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:32,440
Well, we didn't even have a crack

1338
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:33,559
in the glass of this one.

1339
00:50:33,559 --> 00:50:34,400
No, no, this one.

1340
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:36,360
Guys, once that pillar comes down.

1341
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,920
You guys left this one right alone.

1342
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:40,760
Yeah, it was pretty much perfect.

1343
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:42,200
Back to the top of the order

1344
00:50:42,200 --> 00:50:45,920
and you hear from outside the door,

1345
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:47,720
it sounds like some of the soldiers

1346
00:50:47,720 --> 00:50:50,000
have continued to fight their way up the stairs

1347
00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:54,200
and are battling their way through the horde of zombies.

1348
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:58,160
But they are now knocking on the door

1349
00:50:58,160 --> 00:50:59,920
and sound like they're right outside.

1350
00:50:59,920 --> 00:51:00,760
Jesus.

1351
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:02,599
No, you just moved a whole army of zombies at once.

1352
00:51:02,599 --> 00:51:03,680
I know, God.

1353
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:06,960
It just all appeared on my screen.

1354
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,120
Like 50 zombies.

1355
00:51:10,280 --> 00:51:11,120
So my turn now.

1356
00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:11,960
This is like a really cool

1357
00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:13,560
thriller dance going on out there.

1358
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:15,720
Yeah, it's awesome.

1359
00:51:15,720 --> 00:51:17,560
I don't like it at all.

1360
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:18,760
Ha ha ha!

1361
00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:20,080
I don't approve!

1362
00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:22,080
No, it's very stressful.

1363
00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:24,640
Okay, my turn, yeah?

1364
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:25,480
Yes.

1365
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:26,400
Okay, great.

1366
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:27,760
I'm gonna hit that pillar again.

1367
00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:29,960
That is 27.

1368
00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:31,960
27 will strike it, yeah.

1369
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:34,000
Okay, 17 damage.

1370
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:35,400
Damn!

1371
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:37,599
You strike this pillar and it,

1372
00:51:37,599 --> 00:51:41,360
the same way as the other one, crumbles into dust.

1373
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:44,920
And the sound coming from the other side

1374
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:46,679
of the room stops.

1375
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:50,920
You don't hear any groaning.

1376
00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,119
And then there's a pause

1377
00:51:53,119 --> 00:51:55,440
that seems like it lasts a long time,

1378
00:51:55,440 --> 00:51:58,920
but then you hear bodies falling to the floor.

1379
00:51:58,920 --> 00:52:00,360
A wave of them.

1380
00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:01,199
It's still your turn.

1381
00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:02,920
Okay.

1382
00:52:04,920 --> 00:52:08,720
Okay, then I am going to,

1383
00:52:08,720 --> 00:52:11,760
I guess, attack that green brain.

1384
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:12,600
Yeah.

1385
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:15,400
16.

1386
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:17,920
Probably not gonna hit.

1387
00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:20,080
16, no.

1388
00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:21,720
Well, hold on.

1389
00:52:21,720 --> 00:52:23,320
Yeah, 16 will hit it.

1390
00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:24,160
Oh, good.

1391
00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,600
That means he's out of protective juice.

1392
00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:29,320
16 damage.

1393
00:52:29,360 --> 00:52:33,039
A crack begins to form in this brain's jar

1394
00:52:33,039 --> 00:52:35,280
as you strike it with your sword.

1395
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:37,920
Okay, Donnie's gonna try and get in there a little bit.

1396
00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:39,280
Oh my God, Donnie.

1397
00:52:40,720 --> 00:52:41,680
That's a six.

1398
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:45,360
I don't think Donnie's- Donnie.

1399
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:48,080
He hasn't rolled higher than like an eight,

1400
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:49,039
I don't think.

1401
00:52:49,039 --> 00:52:51,160
One time this time.

1402
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:52,000
Poor guy.

1403
00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:52,840
Donnie yells from the side.

1404
00:52:52,840 --> 00:52:55,440
He's like, you guys are doing great.

1405
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:56,600
Rah, rah.

1406
00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:58,039
You got it.

1407
00:52:58,039 --> 00:52:59,039
Way to go.

1408
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:02,159
And Flint, you're up.

1409
00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:04,079
All right.

1410
00:53:05,519 --> 00:53:08,679
Spurred on by Donnie's excellent cheerleading,

1411
00:53:08,679 --> 00:53:12,920
I go take a running start at this green brain

1412
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:16,360
and wind up for a big old swing, the 21.

1413
00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:17,960
21 will strike true.

1414
00:53:19,599 --> 00:53:20,440
20.

1415
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,199
The cracks begin to splinter out

1416
00:53:22,199 --> 00:53:24,440
from this green brain's jar

1417
00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,360
as you knock it across the room

1418
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:28,599
and into the wall, roll a D6.

1419
00:53:28,599 --> 00:53:31,559
Oh my God, I haven't had to roll a D6 in a long time.

1420
00:53:31,559 --> 00:53:32,400
Three.

1421
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:34,039
And it takes three extra damage,

1422
00:53:34,039 --> 00:53:36,280
but it's still floating in the air.

1423
00:53:36,280 --> 00:53:39,280
Is it too far away from me or can I make it over there?

1424
00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:40,960
You've moved about 10 feet,

1425
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:42,920
so you could probably still make it.

1426
00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,280
Then the onslaught continues.

1427
00:53:46,240 --> 00:53:49,599
And that is a 14, which is probably not gonna do it,

1428
00:53:49,599 --> 00:53:51,920
but let's hope that shield is really, really, really down.

1429
00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:53,240
14 will hit.

1430
00:53:53,240 --> 00:53:54,360
All right.

1431
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:55,200
Yeah.

1432
00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:57,599
25.

1433
00:53:57,599 --> 00:53:58,720
Yeah, it is.

1434
00:53:58,720 --> 00:54:00,039
Wowzers.

1435
00:54:00,039 --> 00:54:01,840
I guess when you're a brain in a jar,

1436
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:03,160
you're not that strong.

1437
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:04,000
Oh, shit.

1438
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:04,840
What?

1439
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:06,680
Without the magic, yeah.

1440
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:09,039
The cracks begin to splinter,

1441
00:54:09,039 --> 00:54:10,720
and like you've seen before,

1442
00:54:10,720 --> 00:54:13,440
the fluid inside begins to ooze out.

1443
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,480
And now it is Gargoyle's turn.

1444
00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:17,800
All right.

1445
00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:19,960
He is going to fly over here

1446
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:22,160
because he can fly 60 feet.

1447
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:23,000
Sweet.

1448
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:23,840
Because I think that's bigger.

1449
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:26,240
Yeah, you're good, you're good.

1450
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:28,720
He's going to first bite at it.

1451
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:32,600
Oh, 12?

1452
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:33,760
12 does not break.

1453
00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:35,520
Ooh, he's gonna claw at it.

1454
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:36,480
Oh.

1455
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:38,040
Ah.

1456
00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:38,880
Critical miss.

1457
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:41,320
So in this, he flies across,

1458
00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,400
and maybe you lost some of your,

1459
00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:44,240
that's a critical miss.

1460
00:54:44,240 --> 00:54:45,080
It's five.

1461
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:45,920
It's a critical miss.

1462
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:46,760
God damn it.

1463
00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:49,200
He flies across and kind of bashes into the wall

1464
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:52,040
on his first attempt and misses entirely

1465
00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:54,840
as the green brain is nimbly dodging

1466
00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:58,600
out of the way of your clumsy, clumsy Gargoyle.

1467
00:54:58,600 --> 00:54:59,920
All nimbly bimbly.

1468
00:54:59,920 --> 00:55:00,760
Nimbly bimbly.

1469
00:55:00,760 --> 00:55:02,480
Oh, nimbly bimbly.

1470
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:04,720
And it's the green brain's turn,

1471
00:55:04,720 --> 00:55:07,640
and in a final act is going to cast

1472
00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:10,559
Mind Thrust on Flint and Thea.

1473
00:55:11,600 --> 00:55:12,440
Ring it.

1474
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:14,440
Wisdom.

1475
00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:16,240
Mind Thrust is intelligence.

1476
00:55:16,240 --> 00:55:17,360
That was an eight for me,

1477
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:18,880
so I'm taking damage.

1478
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:20,320
You're taking damage.

1479
00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:21,519
14.

1480
00:55:21,519 --> 00:55:23,360
14 saves, but Flint.

1481
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:25,120
Sorry, I can't count.

1482
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:26,079
It's 15.

1483
00:55:26,079 --> 00:55:26,920
Still saves.

1484
00:55:28,720 --> 00:55:31,320
Turns out, actually, 15 doesn't save.

1485
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:32,360
Oh, God, but 14 did.

1486
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:33,200
14 was good.

1487
00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:34,800
15 is not.

1488
00:55:34,800 --> 00:55:37,120
Flint, you are gonna take eight psychic damage

1489
00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:39,480
as you feel your brain swell.

1490
00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:40,320
Okay.

1491
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:42,280
That eight damage literally would have been

1492
00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:43,960
half the amount of points I have.

1493
00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:45,400
Oh, no.

1494
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:46,680
So now it's your turn, Thea.

1495
00:55:46,680 --> 00:55:48,760
I'm gonna tell my Gargoyle to,

1496
00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:50,760
like, just take a knee for a second.

1497
00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:53,960
I'm just gonna throw a little Produce Flame.

1498
00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:56,560
So, two D, eight.

1499
00:55:56,560 --> 00:56:00,160
Seven, and a six, that's 13.

1500
00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:03,800
The fluid inside of the jar begins to boil

1501
00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:07,280
as you cast Produce Flame onto this jar,

1502
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:09,920
and it erupts outward,

1503
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:12,680
and the fluid just covers Flint.

1504
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:15,560
Payback.

1505
00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:16,880
I had it coming.

1506
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:18,760
I had all that splatter earlier.

1507
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:23,760
As the brain sizzles and falls to the ground

1508
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:28,120
and stops throbbing, it is dead.

1509
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:30,880
Wow, I probably should have lit one on fire earlier.

1510
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:32,560
He did liquid in a sealed jar.

1511
00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:34,240
Of course that would have exploded it.

1512
00:56:34,240 --> 00:56:35,880
God, stupid.

1513
00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:40,280
All the brains in the room,

1514
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:42,680
jars have exploded and are dead.

1515
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:45,920
The spires are all crumbled to the ground,

1516
00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:50,079
and it sounds like silence on the other side of the door.

1517
00:56:50,079 --> 00:56:53,760
Guys, what should we do with this armor?

1518
00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:56,800
Can we look out the window that the Gargoyle came in

1519
00:56:56,800 --> 00:57:00,519
and see, like, is the Ax of Mirabar out there

1520
00:57:00,519 --> 00:57:02,119
just, like, fucking up zombies,

1521
00:57:02,119 --> 00:57:03,680
or if the zombies are all just, like,

1522
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:08,159
laying down and the Ax of Mirabar are just, like, huh.

1523
00:57:08,159 --> 00:57:10,599
Sure, yeah, it's a little higher up,

1524
00:57:10,599 --> 00:57:12,159
but Donnie flies up there,

1525
00:57:12,159 --> 00:57:15,720
and he kind of flies out and looks around a little bit,

1526
00:57:15,720 --> 00:57:17,520
and he comes back in and he's like,

1527
00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:21,240
Garg, well, guys, it looks like all the zombies

1528
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:22,360
are lying down there,

1529
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:26,080
and the Ax of Mirabar looks a little confused,

1530
00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:28,400
but nobody's fighting.

1531
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:29,720
Seems okay.

1532
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:33,360
Neat.

1533
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:38,720
And this is where they live now.

1534
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:42,480
God, I guess we open the door

1535
00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:46,760
to walk out over the zombies.

1536
00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:48,240
She says confidently.

1537
00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:50,639
Wow, it seems like a bad idea,

1538
00:57:50,639 --> 00:57:52,559
but there is no exit from this room,

1539
00:57:52,559 --> 00:57:57,559
so either we have a nap in here with the rotting brains

1540
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:02,000
or we exit through the zombie shop.

1541
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:06,000
Let's grab the cursed armor,

1542
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,360
because we don't want this to just happen again.

1543
00:58:08,360 --> 00:58:09,199
True.

1544
00:58:09,199 --> 00:58:11,119
We should probably destroy this somehow.

1545
00:58:12,639 --> 00:58:14,679
But Flint, if you wanna grab that,

1546
00:58:14,679 --> 00:58:16,639
because you're all strong and stuff.

1547
00:58:16,639 --> 00:58:18,840
Oh, sure, leave it up to the strong guy.

1548
00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:20,000
I'm close to death here.

1549
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:23,800
I get on top of my gargoyle.

1550
00:58:23,800 --> 00:58:26,519
I put a cloak around the armor before I touch it,

1551
00:58:26,519 --> 00:58:27,599
but then I pick it up.

1552
00:58:27,599 --> 00:58:28,960
Sure, yeah, you pick it up,

1553
00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:31,039
and it just feels like regular armor.

1554
00:58:33,079 --> 00:58:35,199
Okay, I open the door.

1555
00:58:35,199 --> 00:58:40,199
You see a horde of zombies crumpled and laying flat

1556
00:58:41,200 --> 00:58:46,200
on the ground, none of them moving, no noise being made.

1557
00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:50,760
Just a sea of undead, dead guys.

1558
00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:53,440
Gross, is there a big hole in the floor?

1559
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,560
Like when we heard that explosion,

1560
00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:59,760
was that like, did it take out part of this level?

1561
00:58:59,760 --> 00:59:02,440
You look beyond the main door of the room,

1562
00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:04,640
and it looks like the hallway

1563
00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:07,040
has caved into the floor below.

1564
00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:10,759
Okay, well, this is gross as shit,

1565
00:59:10,759 --> 00:59:15,759
because these are all like pieced together creatures, right?

1566
00:59:16,119 --> 00:59:17,039
Yep.

1567
00:59:17,039 --> 00:59:18,000
Great.

1568
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:22,239
Okay, well, I guess I would like to get out of here.

1569
00:59:22,239 --> 00:59:23,599
Friends?

1570
00:59:23,599 --> 00:59:24,880
I second that.

1571
00:59:24,880 --> 00:59:26,159
Okay. Yup.

1572
00:59:26,159 --> 00:59:31,159
So let's get around these hordes of rot monsters

1573
00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:36,440
and get to, I guess, the stairs if we can.

1574
00:59:38,799 --> 00:59:40,719
Like those would have been on the other side of that door.

1575
00:59:40,719 --> 00:59:44,119
I'm not sure what our egress point is here

1576
00:59:44,119 --> 00:59:47,039
with a big hole in the ground.

1577
00:59:47,039 --> 00:59:49,519
Is there a muster point we could be meeting at?

1578
00:59:49,519 --> 00:59:52,559
Yeah, look for the glowing signs.

1579
00:59:52,559 --> 00:59:53,639
Where do we go?

1580
00:59:53,639 --> 00:59:55,039
You make your way out of the room

1581
00:59:55,039 --> 00:59:57,639
and you step over top of the bodies,

1582
00:59:57,639 --> 01:00:00,519
and you're trying to be careful,

1583
01:00:00,519 --> 01:00:03,280
but of course, there's gonna be some squishing.

1584
01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:04,119
Ew.

1585
01:00:04,119 --> 01:00:06,480
There's gonna be some gross.

1586
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:09,480
You kind of step as far to the side as you can

1587
01:00:09,480 --> 01:00:11,360
so you can walk down to the hall,

1588
01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:15,559
and you look down into the caved-in hallway,

1589
01:00:15,559 --> 01:00:19,759
and you see Torgar lying motionless

1590
01:00:19,759 --> 01:00:21,320
at the bottom of this hole.

1591
01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:22,159
No. Aw.

1592
01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:27,119
Cause he blowed the place up to kill all those zombies.

1593
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:32,960
I get, I'm still on the back of my gargoyle.

1594
01:00:33,000 --> 01:00:35,279
I get my gargoyle to fly me down there

1595
01:00:35,279 --> 01:00:37,279
and see if he's still alive.

1596
01:00:37,279 --> 01:00:38,119
Sure.

1597
01:00:38,119 --> 01:00:42,440
You fly down, it's about a 15-foot drop,

1598
01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:44,839
and you go up to check on him,

1599
01:00:44,839 --> 01:00:48,799
and he appears to still be breathing.

1600
01:00:48,799 --> 01:00:49,639
Can I give him a healing kit?

1601
01:00:49,639 --> 01:00:54,639
It's shallow and faint, but he is unconscious.

1602
01:00:54,839 --> 01:00:56,400
Can I give him a healing kit?

1603
01:00:56,440 --> 01:00:57,840
Will that help him?

1604
01:00:57,840 --> 01:00:58,920
Yep.

1605
01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:00,440
I have 16 healing kits.

1606
01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:03,440
Well, healing kits would bring him back.

1607
01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:05,039
You need to give him a potion or a spell.

1608
01:01:05,039 --> 01:01:06,039
Oh, shit.

1609
01:01:06,039 --> 01:01:08,680
I don't have, ah, ah.

1610
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:10,920
I toss you down a healing potion.

1611
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:12,400
Aw.

1612
01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:13,240
So I give it to him.

1613
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,200
Oh, wait, I have a cure wounds.

1614
01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:16,760
Do you still have spell slots available there?

1615
01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:20,599
I do, I have two spell slots available for cure wounds.

1616
01:01:20,599 --> 01:01:21,440
Okay.

1617
01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:22,720
That works better, then.

1618
01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:25,240
Wanna walk me through. I don't know if it does.

1619
01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:27,880
Roll play through what you see and what you do?

1620
01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:28,720
I'm sure.

1621
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:34,440
I go down and I see poor tour guard lying there,

1622
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:38,720
and I touch him with my hand,

1623
01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:41,480
and he gets 15 points back.

1624
01:01:42,360 --> 01:01:43,840
You cast this on him,

1625
01:01:43,840 --> 01:01:47,320
and some of the energy comes back into his body,

1626
01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:52,320
and his eyes flutter open as he looks up at you,

1627
01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:57,360
and he says, still not a huge fan of you, but thank you.

1628
01:01:57,360 --> 01:02:02,360
I send my gargoyle up to get, ah, Nularaaaa at least.

1629
01:02:06,039 --> 01:02:08,559
I'm not sure how heavy you are, Flint.

1630
01:02:08,559 --> 01:02:09,960
You're small though.

1631
01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:11,200
I'm stout.

1632
01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:12,519
I am stout.

1633
01:02:12,519 --> 01:02:14,080
I am stout.

1634
01:02:14,080 --> 01:02:17,720
The gargoyle is a medium creature, so I don't know.

1635
01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:19,360
You guys could probably,

1636
01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,000
you guys could probably jump down.

1637
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:21,840
Oh, there you go.

1638
01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:28,680
me down somehow. Okay, we're making our way down then. Does Torgar need, like, do we need

1639
01:02:28,680 --> 01:02:33,320
to carry him? Thea, do we need to carry you? Are you still on your gargoyle? Like, are

1640
01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:39,800
you cool? I'm alright, I'm on my gargoyle. I'll take a long rest. Torgar appears to

1641
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:45,880
be quite badly beaten up, but you help him to his feet and he's still able to

1642
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:50,760
walk from the building. You guys head out through the hall and out the front door

1643
01:02:50,800 --> 01:02:57,800
of the castle you're in, and there's just a sea of these undead creatures that have

1644
01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:04,200
all collapsed as the remaining members of the Ax of Mirabar look like they're

1645
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:11,160
kind of like, well, shit, now we've got to clean this up. But Torgar, you guys

1646
01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:19,080
get out into the daylight and Torgar says, well, I don't know why this was

1647
01:03:19,079 --> 01:03:24,920
here, but you guys are, you guys are good, you guys are good fighters, and without you

1648
01:03:24,920 --> 01:03:29,319
guys, I mean, we would have all been turned, and who knows what would have

1649
01:03:29,319 --> 01:03:33,599
happened after that. We've got a lot of cleaning up to do, but I want to,

1650
01:03:33,599 --> 01:03:39,360
for the Ax of Mirabar, commit us to help you when you need it. We'll have

1651
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:42,559
some rebuilding to do, but if you ever need anything, you can call on us.

1652
01:03:43,039 --> 01:03:43,840
Thanks.

1653
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:44,679
Thanks.

1654
01:03:44,679 --> 01:03:46,360
Sounds like a good plan.

1655
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:52,440
Says, I need a nap and to clean up some gross, gross stuff.

1656
01:03:52,440 --> 01:03:57,519
Yeah, we're all covered in brain goo, so right behind you.

1657
01:03:57,519 --> 01:03:58,840
We need a drink.

1658
01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:03,519
Yeah, we need a bath and a drink maybe at the same time.

1659
01:04:03,519 --> 01:04:09,559
Says, so you know where to find me, so I'm gonna go home and then figure

1660
01:04:09,599 --> 01:04:15,440
out what to do with this, and he kind of takes himself from your hold and

1661
01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:19,480
straightens himself up and begins to walk off and give directions and

1662
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:23,360
orders to the remaining members of the Ax of Mirabar.

1663
01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:26,000
Wasn't there a river or something?

1664
01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:28,199
There is a river. Yeah, the River of Marar.

1665
01:04:28,199 --> 01:04:29,880
I don't even care about a bed.

1666
01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:34,320
Like, I want to get clean and go to sleep.

1667
01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:37,519
Like, I am happy to camp out.

1668
01:04:37,519 --> 01:04:43,360
We've done it many times before because I feel like everything in this town is

1669
01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:45,920
just like covered with rot zombies now.

1670
01:04:45,920 --> 01:04:46,639
To the river.

1671
01:04:46,639 --> 01:04:49,199
Just like the old days, guys, we'll camp out.

1672
01:04:49,199 --> 01:04:53,280
You decide to head out of the city and down to the River Marar to find a place

1673
01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:56,840
to set up camp and get cleaned up before moving on.

1674
01:04:56,840 --> 01:05:01,400
You leave the walls of the stronghold and you see Osric, pretty badly beaten,

1675
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:05,759
covered in drying zombie matter, and he is working with many members of the

1676
01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:11,000
Ax of Mirabar who are tossing zombie parts onto carts to be carried away.

1677
01:05:11,000 --> 01:05:13,480
Somewhere. Not sure yet.

1678
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,560
As you make your way further through the streets and closer to the edge of

1679
01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:20,560
town, you see more members of the Ax of Mirabar coming out of cellars that

1680
01:05:20,560 --> 01:05:24,680
look reminiscent of bunkers with civilians who are squint-eyed and

1681
01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:26,400
climbing out into the daylight.

1682
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:30,640
Among those civilians, you catch a glimpse of Bahran and Sasha and many

1683
01:05:30,640 --> 01:05:33,000
of the other members of Little Rock.

1684
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:38,039
They see you and recognize from the brain goo all over you that you have been

1685
01:05:38,039 --> 01:05:42,679
part of saving yet another city and Bahran gives a nod and helps some of

1686
01:05:42,679 --> 01:05:45,559
the children along the street.

1687
01:05:45,559 --> 01:05:48,519
You make your way beyond the wall and down to the river.

1688
01:05:48,519 --> 01:05:52,880
And for a city that is covered in mayhem, it surprisingly seems peaceful

1689
01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:54,679
by the side of the river.

1690
01:05:54,679 --> 01:05:56,199
There are no bodies.

1691
01:05:56,199 --> 01:06:01,239
The birds are chirping and a gentle breeze is blowing through.

1692
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:07,400
You clean up, lie down, and all of you drift off to sleep.

1693
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:11,160
A few hours later, you wake up naturally, a little more rested than

1694
01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:16,280
before, and ready to head off on the next part of your adventure.

1695
01:06:16,280 --> 01:06:17,280
Where do you go?

1696
01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:22,960
I think we have to go back and see what's her name there, Makkath,

1697
01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:28,560
in Luskin because we're going to go try and find out about Bort and

1698
01:06:28,599 --> 01:06:31,480
getting him sorted out, correct?

1699
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:32,480
Yeah.

1700
01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:34,480
Oh, hey.

1701
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:37,119
And, you know, big, big bad dragon thing that happened?

1702
01:06:37,119 --> 01:06:42,759
We also should try and tell Salazar that we're alive.

1703
01:06:42,759 --> 01:06:43,559
Oh, yeah.

1704
01:06:43,559 --> 01:06:48,360
So I pull out the fantasy walkie talkie and we remember how to use it, right?

1705
01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:55,719
We just press the button and say, Salazar, are you there?

1706
01:06:55,719 --> 01:06:57,840
There's a bit of a break, but then it comes back in.

1707
01:06:57,840 --> 01:06:59,760
He says, yeah, yeah, what's going on?

1708
01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:04,200
Well, the good news is the zombies are all dead.

1709
01:07:04,200 --> 01:07:09,079
The bad news is Primsbane, we didn't get him.

1710
01:07:09,079 --> 01:07:11,400
You get away?

1711
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:14,360
Yeah, he opened a portal and escaped.

1712
01:07:14,360 --> 01:07:20,760
And this whole town just like covered with rotten, disgusting zombies now.

1713
01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:25,960
So like of the homemade variety, arms, legs, different creatures.

1714
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:27,960
Oh, that's pretty shitty.

1715
01:07:27,960 --> 01:07:31,480
I hate portals.

1716
01:07:31,480 --> 01:07:38,119
OK, we will send a cleanup crew to help the people out there.

1717
01:07:38,119 --> 01:07:39,639
Are you guys OK?

1718
01:07:39,639 --> 01:07:41,440
You've made it out?

1719
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:42,880
Doing all right?

1720
01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:43,720
We're fine.

1721
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:44,920
We'll be fine.

1722
01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:47,079
All right, I had every faith that you guys were going to handle it.

1723
01:07:47,079 --> 01:07:48,159
Just fine.

1724
01:07:48,159 --> 01:07:49,039
Just fine.

1725
01:07:49,039 --> 01:07:50,639
Good.

1726
01:07:50,639 --> 01:07:53,320
Well, all right, I'm glad to hear things are going all right.

1727
01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:55,880
If you need anything, you just give me a holler.

1728
01:07:55,880 --> 01:07:58,640
Okie dokie, over and out.

1729
01:07:58,640 --> 01:08:03,680
Well, I say we probably go visit Macoth first and see what we can do about Bort.

1730
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:05,960
Who's been eerily quiet?

1731
01:08:05,960 --> 01:08:08,200
We came to an understanding, if you remember.

1732
01:08:08,200 --> 01:08:13,800
See if the Arcane Brotherhood wants to help us out, right?

1733
01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:16,480
So we'll go back and see Macoth.

1734
01:08:16,480 --> 01:08:19,480
Are you guys taking the road or are you taking the river?

1735
01:08:19,480 --> 01:08:22,279
I guess, is it downriver from where we are?

1736
01:08:22,279 --> 01:08:23,159
Yep.

1737
01:08:23,159 --> 01:08:23,960
Let's take the river.

1738
01:08:23,960 --> 01:08:25,640
River sounds nice.

1739
01:08:25,680 --> 01:08:30,800
You begin down the river and you find an abandoned riverboat not far from where you set up camp.

1740
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:32,720
You climb aboard and you get your bearings.

1741
01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:36,960
You manage to get it floating on the river back towards Luskin.

1742
01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:41,079
As you travel down the river through the open plains, what was lush and green as

1743
01:08:41,079 --> 01:08:46,640
you cast away from Mirabar slowly turns dead and barren.

1744
01:08:46,640 --> 01:08:50,480
Large swaths of the land burnt to the ground.

1745
01:08:50,480 --> 01:08:54,320
You recall the last time you passed through these lands with the town members of Little Rock,

1746
01:08:54,840 --> 01:08:58,759
three plus weeks ago, that it was not this way at all.

1747
01:08:58,759 --> 01:09:00,920
Certain areas have been torched.

1748
01:09:00,920 --> 01:09:05,479
Others look like the life energy was sapped from the ground itself.

1749
01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:09,319
Takes you about a day of travel to get about three quarters of the way to Luskin.

1750
01:09:09,319 --> 01:09:16,840
You see ahead a large lush forest that now stands out like a sore thumb in the land of devastation.

1751
01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:21,159
At the edge of the forest you see a bridge that looks to be blocking the river

1752
01:09:21,199 --> 01:09:24,840
and on that bridge stands a single knoll.

1753
01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:27,760
As your boat drifts forward, the knoll calls out to you.

1754
01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:30,159
You're going to pay a toll to get by.

1755
01:09:30,159 --> 01:09:31,920
Boys, we got company.

1756
01:09:31,920 --> 01:09:36,960
And out from the bushes step three more knolls, two with spears, one with a flaming torch.

1757
01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:40,960
They walk into the middle of the bridge and all are staring at you.

1758
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:49,199
As you hear a thunderous crash, as something takes what you can only assume is an enormous

1759
01:09:49,239 --> 01:09:52,559
lumbering step through the surrounding trees.

1760
01:09:56,000 --> 01:09:59,279
Elsewhere you see a torch lit dungeon.

1761
01:10:00,399 --> 01:10:02,559
Rats scurrying from the light.

1762
01:10:02,559 --> 01:10:07,840
There is a man hanging from the wall suspended by chains clamped around his arms.

1763
01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:10,159
You can't see his face yet.

1764
01:10:11,359 --> 01:10:16,479
A thick wooden door opens and in walks Thelonious Primsbane,

1765
01:10:16,480 --> 01:10:20,720
dressed in seemingly royal robes and he slowly enters the room,

1766
01:10:20,720 --> 01:10:23,200
his footsteps barely making a sound.

1767
01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:27,600
He walks over to the man suspended on the wall and lifts his head.

1768
01:10:28,320 --> 01:10:33,200
You can now see that this man is Leonin Glorygem of the Iron Fist of the Dawn.

1769
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:35,440
Thelonious chuckles.

1770
01:10:35,440 --> 01:10:39,120
You'll be glad to know your friends didn't even ask about you.

1771
01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:43,280
It doesn't look like they are coming for you anytime soon.

1772
01:10:44,159 --> 01:10:50,079
They may have stopped me this time, but once I make you into the true warrior you can be

1773
01:10:50,079 --> 01:10:56,079
and raise an army in your image, I will be unstoppable.

1774
01:10:56,079 --> 01:11:17,359
Music in today's episode was by Kavin McLeod of incompetech.filmmusic.io.

1775
01:11:18,079 --> 01:11:20,399
So there's stuff in it for what?

1776
01:11:21,279 --> 01:11:22,880
I think it's going to be a starter set.

1777
01:11:24,239 --> 01:11:25,119
That is that what I said?

1778
01:11:26,079 --> 01:11:30,000
It sounded like a starter set to a life.

1779
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:32,000
He's going to swing into the house.

1780
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:34,079
I like the Dumbgeons and Dragons starter set.

1781
01:11:36,079 --> 01:11:38,640
I think Amy is fucking ruthless.

1782
01:11:39,519 --> 01:11:40,559
It's going to be a good day.

1783
01:11:40,559 --> 01:11:41,119
Good day.

1784
01:11:41,119 --> 01:11:42,000
I have a headache.

1785
01:11:43,119 --> 01:11:45,680
I don't like it when Russ has to like plan things out

1786
01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:47,920
because I have a feeling that bad things are coming.

1787
01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:49,199
He's thinking so much.

1788
01:11:49,199 --> 01:11:51,119
I feel like he's very unprepared right now.

1789
01:11:51,119 --> 01:11:52,319
There's a lot of typing happening.

1790
01:11:52,319 --> 01:11:53,279
They're looking through books.

1791
01:11:53,279 --> 01:11:54,319
He's flipping pages.

1792
01:11:54,639 --> 01:11:57,039
Let me see the player's handbook.

1793
01:11:57,039 --> 01:11:57,539
Yes.

1794
01:11:58,159 --> 01:12:06,000
We need some sort of super montage of Russ doing research in order to kill us in D&D.

1795
01:12:06,000 --> 01:12:06,500
Yep.

1796
01:12:07,359 --> 01:12:11,439
He's in a dingy journalism office.

1797
01:12:12,159 --> 01:12:14,000
He's got papers everywhere.

1798
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,559
There's probably some sort of cork board on the back

1799
01:12:16,559 --> 01:12:19,599
with a map and all these pictures connecting with yarn.

1800
01:12:20,239 --> 01:12:22,319
He's learning the Dewey Decimal system

1801
01:12:22,319 --> 01:12:24,479
so he can know how to find things in the library.

1802
01:12:24,479 --> 01:12:29,119
Dumbgeons and Dragons is a Dumb Dragons production.
