1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,319
Previously on Dumbgeons and Dragons.

2
00:00:02,319 --> 00:00:08,080
Suddenly, the room was filled with an unexpected ice storm. Seems weird.

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:13,280
As you squint through the haze, you see four figures standing on a tucked-away balcony.

4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:18,800
Surprised to see you made it this far. I shall deliver you and the traitorous Iskander to him myself.

5
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,039
Remember that he has a fire breath weapon?

6
00:00:21,039 --> 00:00:27,920
So Donnie lets forth his flame breath and, uh, chars the first one.

7
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,080
He's up in flames, running around.

8
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:34,320
I see him, like, frantically trying to pat himself out while he's on fire,

9
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:37,600
and I aim for just what I think should be his head region.

10
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:39,359
His name was Harold.

11
00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:41,040
Oh, well.

12
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:42,000
He had a family.

13
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:47,600
And then you see him vanish and then reappear up on top of the balcony,

14
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:53,600
and a fireball begins to form in his hands that he releases down towards Donnie Noir and Thea.

15
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,719
But that fireball's like one of those super slow fireballs,

16
00:00:56,719 --> 00:00:58,479
so it takes like three turns to get there.

17
00:00:58,479 --> 00:01:03,039
And then you release your dwarven thrower and it connects square in his sternum,

18
00:01:03,039 --> 00:01:08,480
and he, like, grabs onto it, but the dwarven thrower pulls him back with it.

19
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,159
Oh, that's a mistake, yeah.

20
00:01:10,159 --> 00:01:14,079
Into the room, he bounces off the telescope and falls to the ground.

21
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:16,400
Oh, like that guy in Titanic.

22
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:22,960
Lara and Thaddeus, you feel drawn to a dagger.

23
00:01:22,960 --> 00:01:26,880
If you give me to her, we will never be able to be friends again.

24
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:31,520
Thaddeus, I really, I just, I've never asked you for anything before.

25
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,080
I just want the dagger.

26
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,600
Can't you just give it to me?

27
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,480
I, no, no, it's my dagger.

28
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:42,240
Thea begins to run towards you, but she's not fast enough.

29
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,800
In the moment that he hands the weapon to you and you drive it into his chest,

30
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,040
and it goes through his armor into his heart.

31
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,280
Welcome to Dumbgeons and Dragons.

32
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,680
We're a D&D fifth edition Actual Play podcast,

33
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,920
and I'm your dungeon master Russ More, and with me today is Amy More.

34
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,080
I love sparkles.

35
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:08,080
I'm Amy More, and I play Thea Amastasia.

36
00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:11,280
Also with us today, Carla Johnson.

37
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:15,840
I've decided to take a heel turn.

38
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,120
Apparently, I play Lara Moonbrook.

39
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:24,240
And with us also, Tom Laird.

40
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,240
What?

41
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,200
I am indifferent towards sparkles.

42
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:30,159
They're fine.

43
00:02:30,159 --> 00:02:31,439
I could take them or leave them.

44
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,599
Oh, and I play Flynn Firebeard.

45
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:34,719
How's everybody doing?

46
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:36,560
Whatever.

47
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:38,080
Yep.

48
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,120
I'll concur with that.

49
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:39,599
Whatever.

50
00:02:39,599 --> 00:02:40,099
Yep.

51
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,640
One of our own was hurt last episode, and it's still pretty raw.

52
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,640
Apparently, last week left a poor taste in people's mouths.

53
00:02:50,640 --> 00:02:51,360
I don't get it.

54
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,920
Russ, we are stressed out to the max.

55
00:02:53,920 --> 00:02:58,000
There's a missing fucking owl, and now this shit is going on.

56
00:02:58,560 --> 00:02:59,920
I mean, come on.

57
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:01,120
These are bad people.

58
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,480
Hashtag fine guac.

59
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,440
Hashtag fine guac.

60
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,400
If you go to Twitter and put in hashtag fine guac,

61
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,320
there's a whole movement going on.

62
00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:08,880
I love it.

63
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,960
People threatening to not listen to the podcast,

64
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,000
but they keep coming back and saying that we haven't found guac yet.

65
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,520
So it's a tough one.

66
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,639
I don't know how well it's like a three strike situation,

67
00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:22,319
like they're going to give you some chances,

68
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:25,520
but you better fucking follow through on finding guac.

69
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,639
I mean, we'll take us where the story takes us.

70
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,560
Well, maybe when we do find guac,

71
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,879
she could be like, you're the one now, dog.

72
00:03:35,439 --> 00:03:37,439
It wasn't going to be, but now it is.

73
00:03:37,439 --> 00:03:39,680
No, it needs to be a wonderful reunion.

74
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,280
Oh, God, I hope there's a reunion.

75
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:42,719
Oh, God.

76
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:45,280
Sean Connery is.

77
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:46,400
Yeah, I get it.

78
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:46,879
It's good.

79
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,400
Where you can get more of us,

80
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,639
Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast,

81
00:03:52,639 --> 00:03:54,479
where people will be less angry at me.

82
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,000
Oh, I don't know.

83
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,439
For the most part, true.

84
00:03:59,439 --> 00:04:01,759
I mean, I don't know.

85
00:04:01,759 --> 00:04:03,199
And when you're a patron of ours,

86
00:04:03,199 --> 00:04:05,199
you get an episode dedicated to you.

87
00:04:05,199 --> 00:04:10,400
Like today's dedication is the one and only Daryl Johnson.

88
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:11,039
Yeah, Daryl.

89
00:04:11,039 --> 00:04:12,079
Thanks, Daryl.

90
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:13,520
I know that guy.

91
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:14,640
I know that guy.

92
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:15,600
That's all I'm going to say.

93
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:20,420
All right.

94
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,520
Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast,

95
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:24,960
you can ask Daryl for yourself.

96
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,840
He doesn't want to be associated with me right now, probably,

97
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:30,480
because I don't want to be associated with me right now.

98
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:32,800
Yeah, yeah.

99
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,000
Another way you can support us is you can rate and review us on iTunes.

100
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,040
We appreciate that.

101
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,040
It helps all podcasts grow and get in front of more people.

102
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,400
It's a fantastic thing.

103
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,040
And if you call Russ a doink in your review,

104
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:46,800
we will read it in the podcast.

105
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,560
Yeah, we will doink it.

106
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,879
That'd be so great.

107
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:56,080
Yeah, if you call me a doink in the review,

108
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,920
we will read it in the podcast.

109
00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,360
I laughed out loud for that.

110
00:05:03,280 --> 00:05:05,920
When the episode title came up, you doink,

111
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:08,400
I like fully laughed out loud,

112
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,160
because of course Russ makes those up.

113
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:11,439
We don't know what they're going to be.

114
00:05:11,439 --> 00:05:12,480
Oh, my God.

115
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,240
What a delight that was, Russ.

116
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:15,439
It was a delight.

117
00:05:15,439 --> 00:05:17,040
I thought it was so funny.

118
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,120
By far the best thing I've ever said on the podcast.

119
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,480
I mean, it was up there if it wasn't.

120
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:23,520
It was a wife thing.

121
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:27,200
It resounded.

122
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,000
Everybody loved it.

123
00:05:30,879 --> 00:05:31,920
Everybody loved it.

124
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:33,760
Fuck it.

125
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:34,720
Let's play D&D.

126
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:35,620
Yeah.

127
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:46,400
We find Nulara standing with a dagger in the chest of Thaddeus

128
00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:53,440
as he begins coughing and he grabs at Nulara

129
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:57,760
and he's got this look of why on his face.

130
00:05:57,760 --> 00:05:58,880
What's everybody else doing?

131
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:03,760
Dying a little on the inside.

132
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:11,680
Nulara, you hear in your mind of mine a voice and it says,

133
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:17,280
yes, yes, you will do to return me to my master.

134
00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:18,960
Let's have some fun, shall we?

135
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,320
And you pull the dagger out and quickly sheath it on your belt.

136
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:26,880
I say, Nulara, what the fuck?

137
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,080
Thaddeus, oh, my God, are you?

138
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,240
Oh, my God.

139
00:06:32,319 --> 00:06:34,400
And I'm like, I guess, going to try and like,

140
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,439
take his armor off to like, get to the wound.

141
00:06:37,439 --> 00:06:38,319
Make a medicine check.

142
00:06:40,079 --> 00:06:41,519
Yeah, that's a skill I have.

143
00:06:41,519 --> 00:06:42,000
It's not.

144
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:42,560
That's one.

145
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:43,120
Totally one.

146
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:44,639
Everybody has some.

147
00:06:44,639 --> 00:06:48,000
Oh, I actually, I'm fucking baller with medicine, you guys.

148
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,800
Been holding, holding out on you this whole time.

149
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:52,560
25.

150
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:53,280
Oh, my God.

151
00:06:54,319 --> 00:06:54,639
Yeah, all right.

152
00:06:54,639 --> 00:06:57,360
She fucking performs open heart surgery, saves his life.

153
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:00,560
Fixes him right up.

154
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,879
You managed to quickly get his armor off.

155
00:07:02,879 --> 00:07:05,280
And you're everybody's kind of watching you do this,

156
00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:07,680
as they just saw you stab him.

157
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,399
And now you're taking his armor off and bandaging him up

158
00:07:10,399 --> 00:07:13,600
and applying pressure to the wound.

159
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:14,959
Is he still alive?

160
00:07:14,959 --> 00:07:19,279
He's just like, yeah, OK, then I am going to give him

161
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:25,279
my last rare healing potion that I was going to use on my own dying ass self.

162
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:27,759
But I'm going to give it to him.

163
00:07:27,759 --> 00:07:30,000
Nulara, what the fuck?

164
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,199
He drinks the potion.

165
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,800
Lara, you see the wound begin to close,

166
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,240
so it's the potion is taking effect and it looks like it's working.

167
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,360
Thaddeus, what happened?

168
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:40,079
Oh, my God.

169
00:07:40,079 --> 00:07:41,120
How did you even get hurt?

170
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,720
I thought that we beat these guys.

171
00:07:45,279 --> 00:07:46,639
You stabbed me.

172
00:07:47,199 --> 00:07:48,319
I stabbed you.

173
00:07:48,319 --> 00:07:49,360
Are you delirious?

174
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:50,800
What are you talking about?

175
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,319
As, yeah, Flint's walking over there is like, yeah, dude, you stabbed him.

176
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,560
What are you guys talking about?

177
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:57,759
Why would I stab him?

178
00:07:57,759 --> 00:08:00,319
It's a great question.

179
00:08:00,319 --> 00:08:01,360
It's a great question.

180
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:01,839
Any thoughts?

181
00:08:01,839 --> 00:08:03,839
Fighting over that fucking knife.

182
00:08:03,839 --> 00:08:07,039
You guys were fighting over that dagger and you took it away from him

183
00:08:07,039 --> 00:08:09,199
and then you fucking stabbed him with it.

184
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:09,920
What dagger?

185
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,599
What are you even talking about?

186
00:08:11,599 --> 00:08:13,120
The one that's in your belt.

187
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:18,800
Can I snatch it like from her scabbard daggers going scabbards?

188
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:19,599
Yes, you can try.

189
00:08:19,599 --> 00:08:20,079
Yeah.

190
00:08:20,079 --> 00:08:21,039
Yeah, I want to try that.

191
00:08:21,039 --> 00:08:22,639
Make a dex.

192
00:08:22,639 --> 00:08:23,519
I'm going to fucking roll.

193
00:08:24,879 --> 00:08:25,920
I'm going to do a dex roll.

194
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:27,360
It's going to be the best thing ever.

195
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:31,600
Can I roll two d20s and just add them together to get my lesson 10 number?

196
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,000
Let's say you roll with advantage because she doesn't know what you're doing.

197
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,480
You're just quickly trying to do this without her knowledge.

198
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,399
Okay, well, I just legit roll the one.

199
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:40,560
Excellent.

200
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,320
Maybe roll your other one.

201
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:43,120
It's going to go up.

202
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,320
It was a 16 plus two, 18 plus one.

203
00:08:47,759 --> 00:08:48,720
Sorry, 17.

204
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,240
So you are still wolf.

205
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,440
So you're trying to grab it from the handle and pull it out of her belt?

206
00:08:54,000 --> 00:09:00,720
I think I'm trying to rip the leather belt buckle loop shit right off of her.

207
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:02,960
I don't think I could be very precision.

208
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:05,440
I don't think I'm lifting it out by the handle.

209
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:09,200
I think I'm grabbing hold of the whole scabbard and just ripping.

210
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:09,520
Sure.

211
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:15,600
So you bite into the scabbard and you see a red glow come from the gems

212
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,440
and it doesn't move and you take four damage.

213
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,120
Do I drop it?

214
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:23,919
Did I take it off?

215
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:30,960
Where you grabbed it, it doesn't come out or come off.

216
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:36,399
I kind of like yelp a bit as I'm assuming burns my mouth.

217
00:09:37,759 --> 00:09:41,039
And I say that take that off.

218
00:09:41,039 --> 00:09:42,159
Take that off, Nularaaa.

219
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:44,799
That thing's evil.

220
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,399
Okay, well, I grab it and try and take it off.

221
00:09:48,399 --> 00:09:49,519
It doesn't remove.

222
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:52,480
Nularaaa, seriously, take it off.

223
00:09:53,919 --> 00:09:57,759
But am I like, you can see me trying to move it and it just won't move?

224
00:09:59,279 --> 00:10:02,080
But maybe you're really good at pantomiming a struggle.

225
00:10:04,879 --> 00:10:07,519
So I'm pulling on it.

226
00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:10,480
Guys, I can't move it.

227
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,600
Well, Nularaaa is never getting naked again, you guys, apparently.

228
00:10:14,159 --> 00:10:16,080
Well, I'll always have a belt on.

229
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:16,560
Weird.

230
00:10:17,039 --> 00:10:17,539
Apparently.

231
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,159
Fine, we can have sex, but I'm leaving my belt on.

232
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:24,080
And my socks.

233
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,600
Okay, Thaddeus, are you all right?

234
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:32,799
Do you know anything about, I don't know, evil bewitched daggers?

235
00:10:33,919 --> 00:10:34,419
Nope.

236
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:38,480
Do I know anything?

237
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,399
Can I roll a history check?

238
00:10:40,399 --> 00:10:41,120
Oh, I know fucking nothing.

239
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,159
Maybe I might know something.

240
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,840
Yeah, everybody who wants to can make a history check.

241
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:46,799
Well, I rolled a three.

242
00:10:48,639 --> 00:10:49,600
I think history's for twice.

243
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:50,720
That's a 26.

244
00:10:51,279 --> 00:10:52,639
I rolled a 20.

245
00:10:52,639 --> 00:10:56,720
Nularaaa, you're trying to remove the dagger and you're kind of looking at it.

246
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:03,120
And what you can see is, because the blade won't remove from the scabbard,

247
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:12,000
you see an ebony crossguard which seamlessly flows into a worn leather wrapped handle.

248
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,080
There are two red garnet stones.

249
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,960
I did say gems last time, but they're red garnet stones.

250
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:25,519
I don't think you know about this specific dagger, even with a 26.

251
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,639
Guys, help me, like, try to get this thing off of me.

252
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:41,759
I don't know if it burned Thea's mouth when she tried to bite it.

253
00:11:41,759 --> 00:11:43,200
You're not even going to try?

254
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,560
Cut my belt off me.

255
00:11:44,560 --> 00:11:45,519
Jesus, you guys.

256
00:11:46,319 --> 00:11:49,279
This thing just made me stab Thaddeus, is what you're telling me,

257
00:11:49,279 --> 00:11:50,960
and you're not going to try and get it away from me?

258
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,000
Get it away from me.

259
00:11:52,639 --> 00:11:54,799
I don't have hands, it's all you, Flint.

260
00:11:55,679 --> 00:12:00,480
As Flint is approaching you to try and cut off the belt,

261
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,480
Nularaaa, you hear in your head,

262
00:12:03,439 --> 00:12:06,240
if he removes me and we are separated,

263
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,439
something will happen to one of your friends.

264
00:12:11,759 --> 00:12:13,039
And then the voice goes away.

265
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:17,199
Uh, so I guess I just start to back away from him.

266
00:12:19,199 --> 00:12:20,319
Nularaaa, what are you doing?

267
00:12:20,319 --> 00:12:21,199
Hold still.

268
00:12:21,199 --> 00:12:23,199
How's he supposed to get that off you if you keep moving?

269
00:12:24,399 --> 00:12:31,759
Guys, I can hear, this seems crazy, but I can hear the dagger in my head,

270
00:12:31,759 --> 00:12:34,319
and it's saying something bad is going to happen to one of you

271
00:12:35,039 --> 00:12:36,879
if it's separated from me.

272
00:12:38,639 --> 00:12:42,159
I mean, it already used you to stab Thaddeus.

273
00:12:42,159 --> 00:12:43,439
What worse could happen to us?

274
00:12:44,879 --> 00:12:47,759
That seems like a risky fucking thing to ask.

275
00:12:47,759 --> 00:12:48,879
What worse could happen?

276
00:12:48,879 --> 00:12:52,159
We've just been in a death maze for like nine and a half months.

277
00:12:53,039 --> 00:12:54,000
Fair point, fair point.

278
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:54,480
It's noted.

279
00:12:55,279 --> 00:12:58,959
Nularaaa, you hear the voice come back and it says,

280
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,519
yes, yes, he was weak, but he looks fine now.

281
00:13:04,319 --> 00:13:08,639
Guys, this dagger is evil.

282
00:13:08,639 --> 00:13:11,679
It's so evil, it's happy that I stabbed Thaddeus.

283
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,680
Of course it made me stab him.

284
00:13:13,680 --> 00:13:15,600
I didn't think it would regret it now, but.

285
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:18,400
It really takes it back down.

286
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:19,360
It's like, oh, you know what?

287
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:20,080
It should have done that.

288
00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,120
It was a step too far.

289
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,040
But Nularaaa, if we don't try to separate you from it,

290
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,240
you might just end up stabbing one of us again.

291
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,480
But if we do try to separate you from it, something bad's going to happen.

292
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:34,720
I guess.

293
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,000
This is like the epitome of rock in a hard place, isn't it?

294
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,080
What does it want?

295
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:44,160
I don't know.

296
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,880
Dagger, what do you want?

297
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:51,360
I roll my wolf eyes at her.

298
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,960
I roll my wolfy eyes at her like, you give me this attitude now.

299
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,040
What I want will become clear soon.

300
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:02,080
We will just have some fun in the meantime.

301
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:05,600
Is it talking to you?

302
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:08,560
Yes, it said.

303
00:14:08,560 --> 00:14:15,120
What it wants will become clear soon, but in the meantime, we'll have some fun.

304
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:16,960
What?

305
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,320
That sounds fucking ominous.

306
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:20,560
So I think.

307
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,360
Not that we don't trust you, Nularaaa.

308
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:26,560
You shouldn't trust me.

309
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,640
I literally just stabbed Thaddeus.

310
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:29,600
Fucking help me.

311
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:31,920
Guys, help me.

312
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,920
Make me not do anything bad again.

313
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:35,440
I don't want this to happen again.

314
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:38,480
Can we tie our hands together?

315
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,080
You hear in your head, Nularaaa.

316
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:46,560
If you don't try to get rid of me, I won't make you hurt your friends again.

317
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:47,279
Don't worry.

318
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,720
It says if I don't try and get rid of it, it won't make me hurt you again.

319
00:14:54,399 --> 00:14:57,600
But I still think you need to stop me.

320
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,000
Like you can't leave it as an option.

321
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:04,159
That is a like legit abusive relationship you have with that knife.

322
00:15:08,639 --> 00:15:09,120
I don't know.

323
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:15,759
I think maybe you should walk first and we will constantly have our eyes on you.

324
00:15:15,759 --> 00:15:17,039
I don't know what else we can do.

325
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,519
We need to be all together on this to get ourselves out of this.

326
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:29,120
I don't know if we can afford to tie you up and drag you behind us.

327
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,639
Thaddeus casts Zone of Truth.

328
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:37,279
OK.

329
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:44,639
And asks that dagger some fucking questions.

330
00:15:46,159 --> 00:15:47,920
Thea just blurs out.

331
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,080
I like to take shits in people's shoes when I'm a wolf.

332
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:54,879
Hold on.

333
00:15:54,879 --> 00:15:56,960
There's a saving throw with Zone of Truth.

334
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:57,600
So whatever.

335
00:16:01,039 --> 00:16:03,039
She spills all her deepest darkest secrets.

336
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,720
So it's just against his Spell Save DC there.

337
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,000
And Flame Bekins probably has to tell the truth too.

338
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:11,759
I know everything.

339
00:16:11,759 --> 00:16:12,639
I don't know what's happening.

340
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:14,560
Spell Save DC 16.

341
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:16,560
You don't really know.

342
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:22,399
You got to ask like some leading questions to figure out who saved and who failed and whatever.

343
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:24,160
Yeah right.

344
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,920
Because we're not like I'm feeling in a truthful mood.

345
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,120
I could still be lying.

346
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:30,160
It's like a riddle.

347
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:30,480
Fuck.

348
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:31,279
I don't know what to ask.

349
00:16:31,279 --> 00:16:31,920
What should I ask?

350
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:32,639
What do I ask?

351
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:37,600
Don't just go silent on me guys.

352
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:39,919
I don't know, Tom.

353
00:16:39,919 --> 00:16:41,120
It's your choice here, man.

354
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:42,399
What do you want to know?

355
00:16:43,519 --> 00:16:46,399
Well, yeah, as I say, I assume this thing was like its own

356
00:16:47,679 --> 00:16:51,759
being, not just an inanimate object that can talk.

357
00:16:51,759 --> 00:16:52,879
Well, I mean, you don't know.

358
00:16:52,879 --> 00:16:53,360
You don't know.

359
00:16:54,879 --> 00:16:55,439
I don't know.

360
00:16:55,439 --> 00:16:56,480
I think I know from you.

361
00:16:57,039 --> 00:17:01,680
Okay, you know, but who the sweet fattiest Thea Nularaaaa don't know.

362
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:02,960
Flame McKinns doesn't know anything.

363
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:04,799
Don't ask her.

364
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:06,559
I won't tell you.

365
00:17:06,559 --> 00:17:07,440
Even if I knew.

366
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:08,240
I miss her though.

367
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:09,599
There she is.

368
00:17:09,599 --> 00:17:10,720
I haven't talked in a while.

369
00:17:11,599 --> 00:17:12,400
Yeah, we were all happy about that.

370
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,759
There were some stabby, stabby things happening and I got real freaked out.

371
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,279
Reminds me of a time when I was a pirate.

372
00:17:19,279 --> 00:17:21,759
And she goes off on a diatribe a bow when she was a pirate.

373
00:17:23,039 --> 00:17:23,839
Sounds right.

374
00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:24,960
That does sound like her.

375
00:17:25,360 --> 00:17:28,640
She's really small and I'm really big and I just kind of go over and like

376
00:17:29,279 --> 00:17:31,920
lay down like when a big dog kind of like lays on you

377
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,480
and just kind of like crush her to the ground and just lay there.

378
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:36,559
What are you doing?

379
00:17:38,319 --> 00:17:39,440
I muffle her with my fur.

380
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,079
Still allowing her to breathe, of course, just no more talking.

381
00:17:44,079 --> 00:17:48,319
Okay, what's Thaddeus and Flint and Nularaaaa and Donnie doing?

382
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:50,880
I mean, I guess just because you cast the spell

383
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,759
doesn't mean you have to now follow up with questions.

384
00:17:53,759 --> 00:17:54,640
You don't.

385
00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,720
He just goes zone of truth and then goes.

386
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,920
But he probably doesn't say zone of truth in game, right?

387
00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:03,520
He just cast a spell.

388
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:04,320
We don't even know.

389
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:05,840
There's a verbal component to it.

390
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:06,960
So he would have said something.

391
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:08,560
Oh, what did you say?

392
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:09,600
That's what I want to know.

393
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:10,160
Yeah, me too.

394
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:18,160
Zonus of truth is the classic, the classic utterance.

395
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,720
We always make the same jokes and I fucking love it.

396
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:21,759
Did you say lamb?

397
00:18:21,759 --> 00:18:22,400
I love that.

398
00:18:23,759 --> 00:18:24,799
Ah, lamb.

399
00:18:27,519 --> 00:18:28,559
We're awesome.

400
00:18:28,559 --> 00:18:29,839
Fuck, I don't know what to ask.

401
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,319
Tom's having some serious regret here.

402
00:18:32,319 --> 00:18:33,759
Okay, well, it's okay.

403
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:40,240
Okay, guys, we have to get out of this fucking tower.

404
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:41,519
We have to get Iskander

405
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,200
and I'm terrified now that I'm going to hurt someone else.

406
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:49,360
Trust me, we won't hurt anybody.

407
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:51,360
We won't let that happen.

408
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:57,200
Okay, I mean, I just, I can't live with myself now.

409
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,120
Just if something happens, just stop me.

410
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:03,200
However you have to.

411
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,800
Okay, so where do we go?

412
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:07,760
And this is awkward,

413
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:09,680
but I really need to take a healing potion

414
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,120
because I'm going to fucking die.

415
00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:16,240
I have like one sixth hit points.

416
00:19:17,360 --> 00:19:18,240
You don't look so good.

417
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:19,839
I mean, aside from the fact that you're all

418
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,000
weird about your stagger thing here.

419
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,279
And she tosses you a rare healing potion,

420
00:19:27,279 --> 00:19:29,599
which was the 8d4 plus eight.

421
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,400
Well, how is everyone else?

422
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,960
I definitely need to take my uncommon.

423
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:36,720
What's an uncommon I think?

424
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,759
4d4 plus four is uncommon.

425
00:19:39,759 --> 00:19:41,359
Everybody's drinking their potions.

426
00:19:42,319 --> 00:19:44,319
I'm still not great, guys, but it's okay.

427
00:19:44,319 --> 00:19:46,720
All right, do we have to go to this elevator?

428
00:19:46,799 --> 00:19:48,799
Like, let's like, we have this.

429
00:19:49,839 --> 00:19:52,640
Do we have the time sand thingy?

430
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,079
The white shimmering hourglass?

431
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,120
I guess you're a wolf still.

432
00:19:57,120 --> 00:19:59,120
No, I just keep forgetting the word for hourglass.

433
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:01,680
I mean, yes, I'm a wolf.

434
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:02,319
I'm stupid.

435
00:20:05,039 --> 00:20:05,759
What does it do?

436
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,160
Well, is there one of those?

437
00:20:09,360 --> 00:20:11,039
Like, let's go to the teleport thing.

438
00:20:11,039 --> 00:20:12,799
That has the hourglass on it.

439
00:20:12,799 --> 00:20:14,319
Yeah, and press it and see what it does

440
00:20:14,319 --> 00:20:15,759
now that we have it in our possession.

441
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:17,440
Good idea.

442
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,200
Because last time we just, like,

443
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,759
felt a wave of power, but it didn't do anything.

444
00:20:21,759 --> 00:20:23,440
I get up off of flamekins.

445
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,559
And I say, you can ride on my back if you want to.

446
00:20:26,559 --> 00:20:28,480
That was pretty, that was mean of me.

447
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:29,920
Yeah, yeah, that's sweet.

448
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,759
My legs are getting tired.

449
00:20:32,879 --> 00:20:34,079
Do you need healing potion?

450
00:20:34,079 --> 00:20:35,279
I hand her a yellow potion.

451
00:20:35,279 --> 00:20:36,319
I already drank one.

452
00:20:36,319 --> 00:20:36,960
I drank it.

453
00:20:37,519 --> 00:20:39,200
Yellow potion, you dink.

454
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:40,160
No, I drank it.

455
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:40,799
I'm okay.

456
00:20:40,799 --> 00:20:41,359
I'm good.

457
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:41,920
You sure?

458
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:42,240
Yeah.

459
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:43,039
Okay, well, I got this.

460
00:20:43,039 --> 00:20:43,680
We need it, man.

461
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:44,799
You just let me down, your buddy.

462
00:20:46,559 --> 00:20:47,119
Thanks, though.

463
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,759
I mean, I had one and I drank it.

464
00:20:49,759 --> 00:20:50,879
Maybe, maybe next time.

465
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:54,319
Oh, you're so funny.

466
00:20:54,319 --> 00:20:55,759
What a time for a prank.

467
00:20:58,319 --> 00:20:59,279
You're all murderous.

468
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,759
You all crowd around in the teleporter area

469
00:21:04,879 --> 00:21:06,319
and you press the hourglass

470
00:21:07,839 --> 00:21:10,079
and you feel the same wave of energy.

471
00:21:10,079 --> 00:21:11,680
And then the bright light comes

472
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:13,920
where before it was like a, you know,

473
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,599
it was like it didn't let you go through.

474
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,440
But now that you are holding the hourglass,

475
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:20,720
the bright light comes

476
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,520
and you are teleported into dark room.

477
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,400
As you enter this room,

478
00:21:29,360 --> 00:21:31,600
lamps on the walls activate

479
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,160
and provide bright light within the room

480
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,200
and you see the bodies of three dead cultists

481
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:38,160
on the floor here.

482
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,040
Hey there, I'm your Dungeon Master Russ More.

483
00:21:45,039 --> 00:21:48,879
Thanks for joining us for episode 56 of Dumbgeons and Dragons.

484
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:50,159
What was that?

485
00:21:50,799 --> 00:21:53,039
If you enjoy what we're doing with this show

486
00:21:53,039 --> 00:21:56,319
and you can support us through a monthly monetary pledge,

487
00:21:56,319 --> 00:21:58,480
we invite you to join us on Patreon,

488
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,159
where for $1 per month,

489
00:22:00,159 --> 00:22:03,279
you're definitely absolutely 100% helping

490
00:22:03,279 --> 00:22:05,519
make this show better with every episode.

491
00:22:05,519 --> 00:22:08,000
But also you get access to a whole backlog

492
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,519
of monthly bonus episodes,

493
00:22:09,519 --> 00:22:11,759
plus new ones on the 15th of every month,

494
00:22:11,759 --> 00:22:14,000
where we're playing a thriller, horror,

495
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,920
sci-fi genre in the fake core system.

496
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:18,799
And if you can swing it,

497
00:22:18,799 --> 00:22:20,640
just $2 a month gets you access

498
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,720
to our monthly gook hangs as well.

499
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,279
And those are an absolute blast.

500
00:22:26,079 --> 00:22:28,400
We answer as many spoiler-free questions

501
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,000
as we can about the future and past

502
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,440
of the story and the show and us

503
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,599

But another way you can support the show,

507
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,560
because we know that sometimes it's just not possible

508
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,280
to give a pledge that involves money.

509
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:45,840
I get it.

510
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,960
What you can do is share a link to your favourite episode

511
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,320

There's some links down in the description there.

516
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,960
Every little bit helps get us out

517
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,080

518
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,880

Have a great week.

531
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:31,760
We'll talk soon.

532
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,120
Lamps on the walls activate

533
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,680
and provide bright light within the room.

534
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,720
And you see the bodies of three dead cultists

535
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:45,680
on the floor here.

536
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,480
One of them has clearly been stabbed

537
00:23:49,120 --> 00:23:50,800
but you see a trail of blood

538
00:23:51,360 --> 00:23:54,240
running from this room down a hallway.

539
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:56,800
I felt on my nose.

540
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,360
Actually, Nularaaaa, can you go first?

541
00:23:59,360 --> 00:23:59,600
Yeah.

542
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,240
It's just easier to keep an eye on you.

543
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:03,040
You get it.

544
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:03,840
I do.

545
00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:04,960
I go first.

546
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:09,039
I assume, hopefully, towards my boy Iskander.

547
00:24:09,039 --> 00:24:11,279
I mean, he's not my boy we've never met, but you know.

548
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:12,559
Yeah.

549
00:24:12,559 --> 00:24:15,920
I mean, you know, for all intents and purposes, he's our boy.

550
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:16,799
Okay.

551
00:24:16,799 --> 00:24:19,279
So Nularaaaa, as you head down this hallway.

552
00:24:19,279 --> 00:24:21,920
And we are keeping very close tabs on her, correct?

553
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:23,600
And we like we're walking with her.

554
00:24:24,559 --> 00:24:26,720
But we just want her to be in front

555
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:28,240
so that she can be seen at all times

556
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,640
and not stab anybody in the back or whatever.

557
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,559
The hallway itself is five feet wide

558
00:24:32,559 --> 00:24:34,559
so it's single file down the hallway.

559
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:38,240
But Nularaaaa, you are first one to the base

560
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,440
and it opens up into another large room.

561
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,840
And you see that as the lamps illuminate

562
00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,360
as you light down the hallway and into this room

563
00:24:49,360 --> 00:24:51,519
blood streaks the floor here,

564
00:24:51,519 --> 00:24:54,480
including the smeared trail leading back up

565
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,079
to the chamber where you came

566
00:24:56,079 --> 00:24:59,039
and a second trail of bloody boot prints

567
00:24:59,039 --> 00:25:01,600
heading up the corridor to the north.

568
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:05,040
Standing amid the gore are three humanoid figures,

569
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:08,400
two that look like misshapen statues of clay and stone

570
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:11,760
and one appearing as a humanoid made of flame.

571
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:13,680
Oh, these are all statues.

572
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,400
I mean, probably not for long, right, guys?

573
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,640
Well, it's magical world we're in.

574
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:21,280
Who knows?

575
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:24,800
Uh, Kate, while I do the classic.

576
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,760
Where I hold up my hand with the fist so everyone stops.

577
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:31,759
Does that mean you're going to stab us?

578
00:25:34,559 --> 00:25:37,119
No, it's when she starts moving her hand back and forth.

579
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:39,839
It's stab or hand job.

580
00:25:39,839 --> 00:25:40,720
Oh, boy.

581
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:44,559
It's a dangerous game we play called stab or hand job.

582
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:46,319
Oh, boy.

583
00:25:48,319 --> 00:25:50,799
Guys, there's blood everywhere in there

584
00:25:51,599 --> 00:25:54,240
and three statues, I guess.

585
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,359
One is like a flame person

586
00:25:57,360 --> 00:26:02,480
and then the other two are just like big misshapen blob creatures.

587
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,240
I mean, realistically,

588
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,720
they're probably going to turn into real people we're going to fight.

589
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,880
I just wanted to warn you before we went in there.

590
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:10,000
All right.

591
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:10,880
Thanks for the heads up.

592
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:12,560
So I'm going in.

593
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:13,600
We all OK with that?

594
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,160
There's nowhere else to go.

595
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:16,800
OK.

596
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,160
And I enter the room.

597
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,280
As you step foot into the room,

598
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:25,840
the earth elementals and the fire elemental begin to move.

599
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,440
Move and begin moving towards you

600
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,400
in a fashion that looks like they want to take a swing at you.

601
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:35,200
Roll for initiative.

602
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:37,280
Thaddeus is up first.

603
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:39,920
Do it, Thaddeus.

604
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:44,000
How far away from Newlar are these guys?

605
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,680
15 feet to the closest one, 25 feet to the fire one,

606
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:48,960
which is farthest away.

607
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:50,160
And how big is this room?

608
00:26:51,120 --> 00:26:54,560
It is 40 feet by 40 feet.

609
00:26:54,560 --> 00:26:55,600
So it's a big old room.

610
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:57,840
It's a big old square room.

611
00:26:58,960 --> 00:26:59,440
OK.

612
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,120
Right where the first guys are there,

613
00:27:01,120 --> 00:27:05,840
I'm going to cast Russ's favorite fucking spell,

614
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:06,960
Cloud of Daggers.

615
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:08,960
That's fun.

616
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,240
Haven't had that in a while.

617
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:13,920
I guess because there's been no song kitty in a while.

618
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:20,080
So this will be right on top of them sort of thing.

619
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:21,280
Sure.

620
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:23,440
On the start of their turn,

621
00:27:23,519 --> 00:27:26,000
if they're in the range, which they will be

622
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,600
because it's the start of their turn,

623
00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:30,240
they will take 4d4 slashing damage.

624
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:31,440
All right.

625
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,440
Then it is Flameykin's turn unless Thaddeus is doing anything else.

626
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,960
Believe he can only utter words of encouragement past that point.

627
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,120
Describe the room as you enter.

628
00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:46,799
There's an immediate hallway that goes like off to the left

629
00:27:46,799 --> 00:27:49,120
as you enter the room and there to your right.

630
00:27:50,559 --> 00:27:52,799
Just to describe that there is a table

631
00:27:52,799 --> 00:27:55,039
and there is a table in one corner

632
00:27:55,039 --> 00:27:57,919
and two longer tables with papers and stuff on them

633
00:27:57,919 --> 00:28:00,559
towards the back of the room as you enter.

634
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:05,680
Flameykin's slides in and under people

635
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,079
as she was probably nearer to the back there

636
00:28:08,079 --> 00:28:10,399
and she was on me here.

637
00:28:10,399 --> 00:28:11,279
She's just OK.

638
00:28:11,279 --> 00:28:14,559
She's just riding you and she lets forth an acid splash.

639
00:28:14,559 --> 00:28:17,599
No, I do not consent to this.

640
00:28:17,599 --> 00:28:17,919
What?

641
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,159
Actually, you did offer so I did when we got in,

642
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,720
but I'm not going to ride into battle with her.

643
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,480
No, she's on top of you.

644
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:27,519
You said she's on you.

645
00:28:27,519 --> 00:28:31,040
She's riding on top of you, throwing acid bubbles.

646
00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,080
She's like, we got to do this together now, bud.

647
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:35,200
She singes my fur.

648
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:36,240
I'm going to be pissed.

649
00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:36,740
Yep.

650
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,160
One target must make a dexterity saving throw,

651
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:41,759
which it does not make.

652
00:28:41,759 --> 00:28:48,560
And then it's going to take 12 acid damage.

653
00:28:49,359 --> 00:28:52,480
And then it's one of the Earthstone guy's turn.

654
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,319
So he takes how much damage from you?

655
00:28:55,519 --> 00:28:56,480
Let's find out.

656
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:56,960
Soorty Mcdagger's.

657
00:28:57,839 --> 00:29:00,319
Soorty Mcdagger's himself.

658
00:29:00,319 --> 00:29:02,000
Feels good, doesn't it, Russ?

659
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:02,720
Feels good.

660
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:03,200
I like it.

661
00:29:04,159 --> 00:29:07,759
When it comes, when a cloud of daggers comes to fruition.

662
00:29:07,759 --> 00:29:08,259
Right.

663
00:29:09,839 --> 00:29:10,319
All right.

664
00:29:10,319 --> 00:29:11,759
So that is 10 damage.

665
00:29:13,279 --> 00:29:16,720
It just rushes forward and slam attacks.

666
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:18,880
I'll say Nulara and Flint.

667
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,680
Get a slam attack each.

668
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:22,640
Those are slamma jamma.

669
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:24,720
That's a 12 and 11.

670
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:26,240
So I don't think it really matters who.

671
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:27,680
I touched your dice.

672
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,120
Oh, god damn it.

673
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:30,880
This is what you've been doing this whole time.

674
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:31,680
Get out of here.

675
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:33,839
Get out of here.

676
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:36,079
Stop ruining my dice.

677
00:29:36,079 --> 00:29:37,360
Keep ruining his dice.

678
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,200
Keep ruining his goddamn dice.

679
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:44,720
So one of these elementals makes a big swing

680
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,279
and you duck out of the way and it is your turn.

681
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:50,799
And sorry, just to be clear, we walked in

682
00:29:52,319 --> 00:29:58,559
and immediately to our left is the only exit from the room.

683
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:00,400
Is an open hallway.

684
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:05,279
And is the elemental, did it slam in between me and that exit?

685
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,039
No, it's still over top of you, in front of you.

686
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,839
It swung over your head and you ducked out of the way.

687
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:12,340
Okay.

688
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:14,560
Well, I mean, it's right there.

689
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,120
So I'm gonna take a swing at it.

690
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:21,360
But also, guys, we've tried to fight these before

691
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,440
and it doesn't really go great.

692
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:27,120
So I say, let's just try and get through

693
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:28,960
and get down that hallway.

694
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:29,600
What do you think?

695
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,200
This is what I'm saying as I am about to stab

696
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:34,800
because I'm a good multitasker.

697
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,320
I mean, I'm ready to ride like the cavalry into battle,

698
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:39,760
but whatever you think.

699
00:30:39,759 --> 00:30:42,400
That's a 25.

700
00:30:43,519 --> 00:30:44,480
25 will hit.

701
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:45,200
Okay.

702
00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,119
I reach up and I just grab her pant leg

703
00:30:47,119 --> 00:30:49,839
and I just really slowly like pull her off my back.

704
00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,160
16 damage.

705
00:30:53,359 --> 00:30:53,859
Okay.

706
00:30:54,960 --> 00:31:00,240
Then I'm going to try and get it again as a 22.

707
00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:05,279
That is 14 damage.

708
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:07,119
All right.

709
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:11,360
So your two big slices, they cut in

710
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,760
and they don't look like they do quite as much damage

711
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:15,200
as you think they should.

712
00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:15,920
Sounds right.

713
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:18,100
Okay.

714
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:23,600
Then Donnie's gonna try and recharge.

715
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:25,280
Fails.

716
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:26,880
What else can he do?

717
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,600
Why not bite a big pile of dirt, Donnie?

718
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:30,100
Why not?

719
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:32,000
Why not?

720
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:32,560
I mean-

721
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:33,520
16.

722
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,120
Did just suggest a run, but-

723
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,120
Yeah, but they're like right there.

724
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:37,920
It's true.

725
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:38,480
It's true.

726
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:39,680
16 does not hit.

727
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:40,180
Okay.

728
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:45,840
Donnie takes a bite and it glints off the stone of this elemental.

729
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:50,240
And then it is the fire elemental's turn.

730
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:54,880
So it rushes forward to Thea and Flamikins

731
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:58,320
and moves to, it just moves to touch you.

732
00:31:58,320 --> 00:31:59,840
Ooh, touchy.

733
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:05,040
That's going to be an 18 for Thea and Flamikins.

734
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,000
And a 17 for Flamikins.

735
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:09,519
Yeah, that's gonna work.

736
00:32:09,519 --> 00:32:10,319
That's gonna-

737
00:32:10,319 --> 00:32:12,639
Definite touching happening.

738
00:32:12,639 --> 00:32:15,039
Syngy, syngy touching.

739
00:32:15,039 --> 00:32:16,240
Syngy, syngy touching.

740
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:17,440
It's gonna be hot, you guys.

741
00:32:18,079 --> 00:32:18,639
So hot.

742
00:32:21,519 --> 00:32:22,000
Cause it is.

743
00:32:22,799 --> 00:32:26,960
You're going to take 11 fire damage and you are ignited.

744
00:32:27,839 --> 00:32:28,339
What?

745
00:32:29,519 --> 00:32:30,960
Well, she's covered in fur.

746
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,399
Like your fur is on fire.

747
00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:35,600
I thought you meant like ignited with a fiery passion to murder.

748
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:37,040
Oh, that would have worked too.

749
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:38,240
Yeah, that's possible too.

750
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:42,720
Flamikins is going to take 12 damage and her clothes ignite as well.

751
00:32:43,759 --> 00:32:49,280
And if I'm still on fire my other turn, I continue to take damage.

752
00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,120
And then it is Flint's turn.

753
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,680
So it didn't seem like traditional weapons did a whole lot there.

754
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,759
So should we just disengage and run for it?

755
00:32:59,759 --> 00:33:01,120
I think it sounds like a good idea.

756
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,800
I'm on fire, motherfucker.

757
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:03,840
I mean, she's on fire.

758
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,840
All right, yeah, let's do that.

759
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:09,760
You're disengaging running down the hall.

760
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:10,000
Yep.

761
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:12,240
Okay, Thea's turn.

762
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,080
Can I use my action to stop, drop, and roll?

763
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:19,440
I mean, you've got a goblin on your back.

764
00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:20,240
Oh, do I?

765
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,800
She'd be down with it too though, probably, cause she's also on fire.

766
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:24,720
No, I pushed her off by her pant leg.

767
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,120
Until a creature takes an action to douse the fire,

768
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,920
the target takes 1d10 fire damage at the start of each of its turns.

769
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,240
You're going to take the damage anyway, regardless.

770
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,320
So you're going to take 1 fire damage.

771
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:36,720
Damn it.

772
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:40,960
But then if you are to douse it...

773
00:33:41,759 --> 00:33:43,039
I roll around on the ground.

774
00:33:43,039 --> 00:33:43,440
All right.

775
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:44,000
Oh God!

776
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,519
No, I had dragged her off of me by her pant leg.

777
00:33:47,519 --> 00:33:48,720
This is funnier this way.

778
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,039
Okay, I'm going to take out what I did before.

779
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:56,320
Yeah, well, and I successfully, hopefully, dousing both of our flames.

780
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,440
I just roll all over her with no regard.

781
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,759
She's like holding on, like as this is happening.

782
00:34:01,759 --> 00:34:02,259
Oh God!

783
00:34:02,559 --> 00:34:03,840
You douse the flames.

784
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,360
And can I disengage?

785
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:05,860
Yeah.

786
00:34:06,559 --> 00:34:07,680
And can I dash?

787
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:08,079
Yes.

788
00:34:08,079 --> 00:34:08,800
I do those things.

789
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,200
Well, you can make it with a run.

790
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:12,079
Oh, I'm sure I can.

791
00:34:12,079 --> 00:34:13,920
I'm a very fast wolf and I drag.

792
00:34:14,639 --> 00:34:15,139
Yep.

793
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:16,720
Thaddeus is up.

794
00:34:16,720 --> 00:34:18,000
Flame Echans is already out.

795
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:19,679
I assume Thaddeus is doing the same.

796
00:34:20,559 --> 00:34:22,480
Nularaaaa and Donnie are still in the room

797
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:27,760
and one of the earth elementals has a turn prior to your turn.

798
00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,560
So it is going to try to slam attack.

799
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:32,400
One at Donnie, one at Nularaaaa.

800
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:37,040
Can you not sing while I talk?

801
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:44,160
25 to Nularaaaa, 24 to Donnie.

802
00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:46,960
Okay, well that'll hit both of us.

803
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:51,200
Nularaaaa, you are going to take 16 bludgeoning damage

804
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,440
or halfsies for your armor stuff.

805
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,639
And Donnie will take 15 bludgeoning damage.

806
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:00,720
And then it's your turn.

807
00:35:00,720 --> 00:35:04,320
Then I'm going to try to get out of there.

808
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,000
You know, the old get out of there.

809
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:06,960
Classic move.

810
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,000
The old get out of there.

811
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,639
So you take that hit and then both of you disengage

812
00:35:10,639 --> 00:35:11,440
and enter the hall.

813
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,559
So as you enter the hall,

814
00:35:14,559 --> 00:35:17,360
there's immediately a staircase that goes directly down

815
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,119
and a door that goes off to the left.

816
00:35:21,119 --> 00:35:25,039
Which way do you run as the first one through that direction?

817
00:35:25,039 --> 00:35:28,000
Which way is the trail of blood going?

818
00:35:28,559 --> 00:35:29,279
Quarter to the north.

819
00:35:29,279 --> 00:35:30,400
So it goes down the stairs.

820
00:35:31,519 --> 00:35:34,880
Okay, let's hustle down those stairs.

821
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,799
All of you head down the stairs and you descend

822
00:35:39,759 --> 00:35:45,039
to a walkway that appears to stretch across infinite space.

823
00:35:46,079 --> 00:35:47,279
The walls disappear.

824
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,600
Thousands of stars twinkle in an unfamiliar constellation

825
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,519
and meteors strike through the vastness above and below the path.

826
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,880
Just past the base of the stairs,

827
00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:02,560
a door framed by nothingness rises from the path.

828
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:03,920
50 feet beyond that,

829
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:08,320
the path meets an intersection with another door straight ahead.

830
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:29,519
Music in today's episode was by Kavin McLeod of incompetech.filmmusic.io.

831
00:36:30,240 --> 00:36:32,000
You bite into the scabbard.

832
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,680
And find that her belt is really well made

833
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:37,519
and you just end up dragging her by her waist.

834
00:36:40,240 --> 00:36:41,280
What kind of damage?

835
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:43,360
Not cold.

836
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,040
You took four not cold damage.

837
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:48,880
Not cold damage.

838
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,440
I kind of like,

839
00:36:52,720 --> 00:36:55,440
just having a fight with a giant snake on our bed is epic.

840
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:01,040
That was horrible hand motions for us to be doing back there.

841
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:02,240
I can't see our video.

842
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:04,800
No, our video is completely black.

843
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:05,519
It'll be interesting.

844
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:10,800
Yeah, so I use my axe to cut off her belt.

845
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:14,320
It's the most proper cutting tool.

846
00:37:15,039 --> 00:37:17,440
This is a precision move.

847
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:19,760
I'm going to stop right there.

848
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:22,480
Do I have to?

849
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:24,480
Can't we just put me at the bottom automatically?

850
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,240
No, because I feel good about it this time.

851
00:37:26,240 --> 00:37:26,559
Do you?

852
00:37:26,559 --> 00:37:27,600
I'm going to use your dice.

853
00:37:28,240 --> 00:37:29,519
I had a really bad roll.

854
00:37:29,519 --> 00:37:31,519
So people, I'm not going to be first.

855
00:37:31,519 --> 00:37:32,160
I had 12.

856
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:39,280
Sorry, six plus one initiative.

857
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,600
Well, that's right.

858
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:42,400
Looky here.

859
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:47,760
Guys, I'm broken.

860
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:48,960
I'm bad luck.

861
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,800
How far away from new are these guys?

862
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,000
I don't know what that sound effect was, but I liked it.

863
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:03,360
Earth glides.

864
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,960
So it glides along the stone.

865
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:09,440
No, that doesn't.

866
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,360
Does it say like radical?

867
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:14,000
And it throws up like some hand symbols as it does it?

868
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:14,960
Hang ten.

869
00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:19,599
