1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,240
previously on Dumbgeons and Dragons.

2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,719
I wish I could use that pen.

3
00:00:04,719 --> 00:00:05,360
Donnie.

4
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,200
I don't think they're going to be able to respond to you right now.

5
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:10,880
What's the deal here?

6
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:18,719
There would be more order in a regime brought up with yourself and me.

7
00:00:18,719 --> 00:00:22,480
So you're looking for like a minion?

8
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:24,240
No, a partner.

9
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:29,440
You turn around and you see a skeletal figure.

10
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:30,560
Who the fuck is that?

11
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:32,000
Nergoth Bladeloord.

12
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,679
And what's his deal?

13
00:00:33,679 --> 00:00:34,880
He's one of the originals.

14
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:35,760
Oh, an OG.

15
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:36,800
That's what they call him.

16
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:37,760
Original Greg.

17
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:42,000
Your hit point maximum is reduced by 20.

18
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:42,880
No.

19
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:49,439
Through your backswing, you see coming down the hall towards you a horde of zombies.

20
00:00:49,439 --> 00:00:52,640
Am I able to grab that finger bone and break it in half?

21
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:57,439
I like just completely put all my muscle into this last attack.

22
00:00:57,439 --> 00:01:00,879
He just kind of crumples into nothingness.

23
00:01:00,879 --> 00:01:08,079
You hear the rising groaning yells of the oncoming zombie horde.

24
00:01:08,079 --> 00:01:16,879
From behind you, you hear calls from human creatures as they move in to fully surround you.

25
00:01:18,879 --> 00:01:20,640
Welcome to Dumbgeons and Dragons.

26
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,359
We're a D&D fifth edition actual play podcast.

27
00:01:23,359 --> 00:01:25,120
And I'm your dungeon master, Russ More.

28
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:27,120
And with me today is Amy More.

29
00:01:27,519 --> 00:01:30,560
Hi, I'm Amy More and I play Thea Amastasia.

30
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,719
And Carla Johnson.

31
00:01:32,719 --> 00:01:33,759
Hey, that's me.

32
00:01:33,759 --> 00:01:35,679
I play Nulara Moonbrook.

33
00:01:35,679 --> 00:01:37,519
And Tumlard.

34
00:01:37,519 --> 00:01:38,079
That's me.

35
00:01:38,079 --> 00:01:39,840
I play Flint Firebeard.

36
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,280
How's everybody doing today?

37
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:42,560
Good.

38
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:43,439
Doing real well.

39
00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:45,039
Still a bit sick, but good.

40
00:01:45,039 --> 00:01:46,479
Obviously not snarky.

41
00:01:46,479 --> 00:01:47,840
I had nothing.

42
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,159
Like I had nothing quippy to say.

43
00:01:50,159 --> 00:01:50,799
No.

44
00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:51,759
Very subdued.

45
00:01:52,719 --> 00:01:53,039
Okay.

46
00:01:53,599 --> 00:01:55,120
Love this energy we're carrying in.

47
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:55,920
It's good to go into a battle.

48
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,280
It's very serious.

49
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:02,239
As we're like mid like it's the shit is hitting the proverbial fan right now.

50
00:02:02,239 --> 00:02:03,280
Like it's happening.

51
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:04,799
So things aren't good.

52
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:06,719
They're not great.

53
00:02:06,719 --> 00:02:12,240
Last I recall, zombie horde approaching, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

54
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:13,599
Just sweep that under the rug.

55
00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:14,800
You don't have to worry about that.

56
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,560
They'll just, they'll just eat your brains.

57
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:18,400
Oh, was that a problem?

58
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:19,439
Yeah, that's fine.

59
00:02:19,439 --> 00:02:19,680
Okay.

60
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:20,639
It's fine, right?

61
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,039
Where people won't eat your brains is over on Patreon.

62
00:02:23,039 --> 00:02:25,199
Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast.

63
00:02:25,199 --> 00:02:26,319
We can't guarantee that.

64
00:02:27,439 --> 00:02:28,000
Touche.

65
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:29,360
It hasn't happened yet.

66
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:30,080
Yeah.

67
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,360
So far, so good.

68
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:36,560
We can just say that the track record of non-brain eating has been high.

69
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,120
We are brain free over in Patreon.

70
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:39,620
Okay.

71
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:41,759
Is that what you mean to say?

72
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:50,240
I mean, we're brain free as for our patrons are intelligent, attractive, wonderful people.

73
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:50,960
Just the best.

74
00:02:51,920 --> 00:02:52,479
The best.

75
00:02:52,479 --> 00:02:53,680
The best kind of people.

76
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,800
And when you are a patron, you get an episode dedicated to you.

77
00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:02,080
Today's patron, and I'm sorry if I mispronounce your last name, Craig Zeiss.

78
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:04,719
Thanks, Craig.

79
00:03:04,719 --> 00:03:05,760
Oh my gosh.

80
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:06,800
That's a fun last name.

81
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,480
That is such a fun last name.

82
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,760
There's a Z, a Y, and another Z in it.

83
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:14,640
And it's only four letters long.

84
00:03:14,640 --> 00:03:16,000
I think that's fantastic.

85
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:16,720
That is fun.

86
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,439
Amy is very easily impressed today.

87
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:21,600
My last name's Johnson.

88
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,920
It's like the most generic, boring last name there is.

89
00:03:23,920 --> 00:03:26,080
So like Zeiss, amazing.

90
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:27,360
Yeah, that's pretty great.

91
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:27,760
More.

92
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,840
Ours is actually just an adjective or an adverb.

93
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:34,560
I'm more hungry.

94
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:34,800
Yeah.

95
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:35,760
How hungry are you?

96
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:38,080
More hungry than you.

97
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:38,960
Yeah, we're an adverb.

98
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:40,240
Yeah.

99
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:40,880
I know words.

100
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:42,560
Big deal.

101
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,360
So thank you, Craig, for not being an adverb.

102
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:50,240
And thank you, Patreon, for being all awesome.

103
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,840
That is, yeah, that you guys are all fantastic.

104
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,280
Unless anybody has anything else.

105
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,000
No, I just want to kill some zombies.

106
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:58,640
Well, fuck it.

107
00:03:58,640 --> 00:03:59,680
Let's play D&D.

108
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,560
We see dragons tearing and chasing through the air.

109
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,120
Most of the airships have been downed.

110
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:18,319
Some in ally territory, others surrounded by screaming and fighting mobs,

111
00:04:18,879 --> 00:04:21,840
being held back by magical shields,

112
00:04:21,840 --> 00:04:25,840
dispelling undead and holding walls up to keep cult mercenaries

113
00:04:25,840 --> 00:04:26,240
at bay.

114
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,200
We see one of those ships at the base of the well,

115
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,800
crashed and splintered apart as giants, mercenaries,

116
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,880
and devils close in on its position.

117
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:45,200
The deck is ablaze, and we see a few figures clamouring out of the wreckage.

118
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,600
One of those figures, Thaddeus Sicker Cremuffle,

119
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,360
who wearily climbs up to a vantage point and peers over,

120
00:04:55,439 --> 00:04:56,960
seeing the oncoming attack.

121
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:58,800
He calls out,

122
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,080
anyone have any plans?

123
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:10,000
He sees panic set in among the several younger ship hands and soldiers.

124
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:17,040
He reaches into his bag and pulls out a slightly dented metal cylinder.

125
00:05:18,319 --> 00:05:20,560
He cracks it open and peers inside.

126
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,800
Well, are you ready?

127
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,879
I hope so, just like we spoke about.

128
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:37,199
Thaddeus froze and releases the contents of the cylinder towards their attackers.

129
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:44,319
What looks like dust and dirt gets caught up in the air,

130
00:05:44,879 --> 00:05:47,840
and one at a time, slowly at first, then faster,

131
00:05:48,639 --> 00:05:51,680
thousands of grungs emerge full size,

132
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,680
weapons drawn and rush the oncoming cult of the dragon.

133
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:03,360
Climbing and leaping over giants who suddenly claw and strike out at their own allies.

134
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,879
Some begin screaming and running as they are touched,

135
00:06:06,879 --> 00:06:09,199
rolling down the side of the mountain.

136
00:06:09,199 --> 00:06:12,160
It is covered in a rainbow of grungs.

137
00:06:14,399 --> 00:06:19,120
As we race and follow down the mountain, we see two cloaked figures

138
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,840
enter the tunnel behind where our heroes entered and fade into the shadows.

139
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:28,480
We hear the undead groans and yells from cultists

140
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:34,480
as they converge and surround the hallway where Flint, Thea, Nularaaaa, and Donnie stand.

141
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:36,720
Oh my god.

142
00:06:37,519 --> 00:06:38,160
So good.

143
00:06:38,879 --> 00:06:39,600
So good.

144
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:40,240
They came back.

145
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:41,280
I was actually concerned.

146
00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:46,160
I was too, and then when he pulled out the metal tube, I got so excited.

147
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:47,140
Tingles.

148
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:53,920
Last we recall, Flint was at the tee of the hallways where you had come from,

149
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:58,240
staring down the horde of zombies having just killed Nergoth Bladeloord.

150
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:06,720
Thea, Nularaaaa, and Donnie were facing off against the four drakes who still remain.

151
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,640
Further down the hall in which you were headed,

152
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,960
you hear voices from cultists calling out.

153
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:23,920
I'll just say, narratively, you are at like a, you know, you're holding things off.

154
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,600
No need to immediately jump into an issue of horror.

155
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:29,760
Hey, Flint.

156
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:30,160
Good job.

157
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:32,320
Sure.

158
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:33,040
Thanks.

159
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:33,840
What do we do now?

160
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,680
Well, I think, Nularaaaa, you have these guys handled.

161
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,920
I think I'm halfway in between where Flint was because I remember running to him and

162
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,720
then Flint ended up killing him and me being like, oh,

163
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:46,880
cool, cool.

164
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:47,520
Yeah, don't worry about it.

165
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:48,000
Good job.

166
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:48,560
That's fine.

167
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:50,560
What do you see, Flint?

168
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,120
I don't know if it was the guy that we just fought or what, but there's a

169
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,320
horde of zombies coming our way.

170
00:07:58,880 --> 00:07:59,600
Excuse me, what?

171
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:01,600
Yep.

172
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:02,400
There's a lot of them.

173
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,720
They're about 20 feet from the turn in the hallway.

174
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,680
Tari, have we decided, are they running zombies or shambling zombies?

175
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:10,960
Are they running or shambling?

176
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,960
They're not slow, but they're definitely not running.

177
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,080
I don't know what that means.

178
00:08:16,079 --> 00:08:20,399
Um, they're lurching around pretty fast.

179
00:08:20,399 --> 00:08:22,000
Puppy dog panicking right now.

180
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,759
Uh, guys, we've got three options.

181
00:08:23,759 --> 00:08:25,759
Zombie horde don't know more drakes.

182
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:31,680
I'm still immune to damage, so I'll keep fighting these drakes.

183
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,279
So do we want to like push past?

184
00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:35,439
I don't think like zombies are going to wait.

185
00:08:36,079 --> 00:08:36,720
Like.

186
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:37,279
Fair.

187
00:08:37,279 --> 00:08:38,480
Or do you guys just want to run?

188
00:08:39,199 --> 00:08:39,919
Let's fucking run.

189
00:08:39,919 --> 00:08:40,559
Towards the wards.

190
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:41,439
We could just book it.

191
00:08:41,439 --> 00:08:41,919
The voices.

192
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:42,960
Voices.

193
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:43,439
What do you think?

194
00:08:43,439 --> 00:08:44,159
I say voices.

195
00:08:44,879 --> 00:08:45,519
Yep, I'm in.

196
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:47,520
I start wolf running.

197
00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,720
You all begin to book it.

198
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:56,320
Lara, you make room for Flint, Thea, and Donnie to get by.

199
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,840
The drakes jump at you and are clawing at you.

200
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:01,920
Think I maybe have both swords out?

201
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:03,200
Because why not?

202
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:04,560
Sure.

203
00:09:04,560 --> 00:09:04,960
Right?

204
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:05,440
Why not?

205
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:06,800
Flavor wise, I like it.

206
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:13,040
And they're like going behind me and I'm just like, you know, slashing out.

207
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,600
Just in case one of them like gets dumb enough to.

208
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,279
I don't know, walk into my sword.

209
00:09:17,279 --> 00:09:18,399
Either of the swords.

210
00:09:18,399 --> 00:09:18,960
Sure, yeah.

211
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,800
Reckless Nulara is like more fun.

212
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:24,000
Right?

213
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:30,560
You manage to, in your spinning and back handing swords and knives and stuff,

214
00:09:30,560 --> 00:09:32,560
take out three of them.

215
00:09:32,560 --> 00:09:37,440
The other one turns and sees the undead horde coming down the hall.

216
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:44,480
As you all look over your shoulders, you hear the groaning begin to echo down towards you.

217
00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:49,759
The drake sees this and runs back down the hallway in which it came.

218
00:09:51,519 --> 00:09:55,279
As you carry forward, you see coming around the corner

219
00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,000
at the other end of the hallway, carrying torches and various weapons,

220
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,440
about eight to 10 members of the cult of the dragon that you are now charging towards.

221
00:10:06,399 --> 00:10:08,399
Do they all appear like they're living?

222
00:10:08,399 --> 00:10:09,519
They appear living.

223
00:10:09,519 --> 00:10:12,240
So most of them are talking, barking orders at each other,

224
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,879
prepping for possible collision.

225
00:10:15,519 --> 00:10:18,879
As you are running towards, you see them finally come around the corner,

226
00:10:18,879 --> 00:10:21,279
putting faces to voices.

227
00:10:21,279 --> 00:10:24,480
How far into this like next section are they?

228
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,519
And how far behind us is the zombie horde?

229
00:10:27,519 --> 00:10:30,799
You kind of round a bend, so you see them disappear.

230
00:10:30,799 --> 00:10:34,399
They're about 60 feet ahead of you,

231
00:10:34,399 --> 00:10:37,840
at which the hallway that you are running down keeps going,

232
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,919
but also is an intersect.

233
00:10:40,479 --> 00:10:47,039
The zombie horde behind you is about 100 to 120 feet behind you,

234
00:10:48,319 --> 00:10:51,039
shambling, so they're not moving as fast as you are.

235
00:10:51,039 --> 00:10:55,120
But they've essentially cut off that direction.

236
00:10:55,919 --> 00:11:00,159
So there's no turning around and choosing the other hallway is what you're saying.

237
00:11:00,719 --> 00:11:04,959
There still is the drake hallway that they have not got to yet.

238
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:06,240
Can I roll?

239
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,200
Yeah, I'm thinking an intimidation roll.

240
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,400
And I'd like to pretend like we have the horde of zombies working with us.

241
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,920
And I want to like threaten the group that we're running towards,

242
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:21,840
that they better get the fuck out of our way,

243
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,800
or our horde of zombies is going to be here momentarily.

244
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:25,519
I like it.

245
00:11:25,519 --> 00:11:26,080
I like it.

246
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:26,580
Sure.

247
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:30,879
Yeah, so line of sight, they probably can't see the horde of zombies,

248
00:11:30,879 --> 00:11:33,040
if you're hoping to use that as leverage.

249
00:11:33,279 --> 00:11:34,879
Oh, I'm going to tell them that it's coming.

250
00:11:36,079 --> 00:11:39,439
And then when it shows up, hopefully they will be like,

251
00:11:39,439 --> 00:11:41,039
oh, my God, he wasn't lying.

252
00:11:41,039 --> 00:11:43,360
And they fucking get the fuck out of there.

253
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:43,839
Cool.

254
00:11:43,839 --> 00:11:44,799
Going to need two things.

255
00:11:44,799 --> 00:11:48,240
Going to need exactly like narrate for me what it is.

256
00:11:49,199 --> 00:11:52,000
You'll roll and I'll tell you how they respond.

257
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:58,719
OK, so I kind of look at Nulara and and Thea and I say,

258
00:11:58,719 --> 00:12:02,559
guys, we need to keep them busy till our horde of zombies is here to help us.

259
00:12:03,279 --> 00:12:05,120
And I like I yell it real loud.

260
00:12:07,599 --> 00:12:10,319
All right, that is a with my bonus.

261
00:12:10,319 --> 00:12:11,039
Twenty eight.

262
00:12:12,399 --> 00:12:18,559
Yeah, they stop dead in their tracks and you hear them kind of mumbling quickly

263
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:23,919
and they turn and look the way they were going and kind of way there.

264
00:12:24,959 --> 00:12:26,559
They're like, I don't know.

265
00:12:27,199 --> 00:12:27,759
Should we foot?

266
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:30,319
They stop and listen for a second.

267
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,520
You guys are closing in distance now,

268
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,160
and they some of them start running back down the hallway, which you are going.

269
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,560
A couple of them are just standing still.

270
00:12:40,560 --> 00:12:41,520
They don't know what to do.

271
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:43,200
They've kind of panicked at this moment.

272
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,840
Can we just like push on by them?

273
00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:46,879
Sure.

274
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:48,960
I growl at them.

275
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:50,240
Sure.

276
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,200
You're just kind of pressing by not moving to attack anything.

277
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:56,560
Just I mean, if they were just kind of stunned into silence,

278
00:12:56,560 --> 00:12:58,400
I'm happy to just run past them.

279
00:12:58,399 --> 00:13:02,639
You four pile through them, knocking them to the side.

280
00:13:02,639 --> 00:13:05,039
Everybody make a perception roll as you do this.

281
00:13:05,039 --> 00:13:05,600
And as you.

282
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:08,399
Twenty one.

283
00:13:09,439 --> 00:13:10,319
Fifteen.

284
00:13:10,319 --> 00:13:11,360
Twenty four.

285
00:13:12,159 --> 00:13:14,159
As you pile through them.

286
00:13:14,159 --> 00:13:18,079
Thea, you kind of look over your shoulder.

287
00:13:18,079 --> 00:13:22,159
You see that the undead army is coming in behind you.

288
00:13:22,879 --> 00:13:27,279
But you also see a bright light following in behind them,

289
00:13:27,279 --> 00:13:30,879
like a massively bright light following in behind them.

290
00:13:30,879 --> 00:13:36,240
Nularaaaa, you turn to see the eyes of a dragon looking right at you

291
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,799
as you are running straight past this hallway.

292
00:13:39,839 --> 00:13:41,839
Guys, there's something bright back there.

293
00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:44,879
Guys, I think there's a dragon in that room.

294
00:13:44,879 --> 00:13:47,439
Like, I think I just saw glowing dragon eyes.

295
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:49,120
That makes sense.

296
00:13:50,079 --> 00:13:51,600
Do you keep running while this is happening?

297
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,319
Yeah, I think we're like scream conversationing.

298
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,480
It wasn't it wasn't a five headed dragon,

299
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,480
so not the one we're after this time.

300
00:14:01,680 --> 00:14:02,560
Quibi.

301
00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:06,640
You continue to run and as you clear the hallway,

302
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:12,640
lightning comes down the hallway and strikes the remaining cultists

303
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:13,840
that you ran past.

304
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,120
I scream, holy shit, and I run more.

305
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:23,520
Looking back, as that happens, you see a ball of flame ignite the undead.

306
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,039
Most of them have dropped, but some of them are on fire

307
00:14:27,039 --> 00:14:31,279
and they turn to face where the flames came from

308
00:14:31,279 --> 00:14:33,199
and another one lights them up.

309
00:14:34,079 --> 00:14:37,199
Well, on the plus side, we are down some enemies.

310
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,199
On the downside, we might, you know.

311
00:14:42,159 --> 00:14:44,000
Do you think that's someone helping us

312
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,000
or do you think it's just a happy coincidence?

313
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:47,439
I think we shouldn't ask any questions.

314
00:14:47,439 --> 00:14:48,159
Let's keep going.

315
00:14:49,199 --> 00:14:49,759
Agreed.

316
00:14:49,759 --> 00:14:52,319
I mean, they're helping us right now, so I'm into it,

317
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:56,240
but let's go try and stop the ritual if we can get there.

318
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:56,720
Sounds good.

319
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,879
If somebody got our back, dope.

320
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,600
You know how Nularaaa always says dope?

321
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:01,920
Dope.

322
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:03,040
Yeah, always.

323
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,760
The hallway begins to snake around a corner

324
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:10,560
and you have two cultists ahead of you trying to run away from you.

325
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,760
You turn and look back and you see the scales of a brass dragon

326
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,320
continue past the hallway, chasing down

327
00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,600
more of the cultists that were coming down towards you.

328
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,240
Brass dragons are our friends.

329
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:25,040
That is dope.

330
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,240
So you are currently in pursuit of two cult members

331
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,560
who are continuing to run away from you.

332
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:36,960
Hey, we're all running in the same direction.

333
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,240
Yeah, everybody make a dexterity check.

334
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,160
Say 20.

335
00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:47,840
It's a 19.

336
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:50,320
It's a 10.

337
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:57,760
Thea and Flint, you manage to close ground on the two cultists

338
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:03,840
who turn and see you and see that you don't have an undead army

339
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:06,640
behind you anymore and turn to fight you.

340
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:09,040
And they call out,

341
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,080
hope you got all those undead armies behind you

342
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,160
because it's going to be a real rough.

343
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:16,880
That doesn't even make sense.

344
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:19,360
Roll for initiative.

345
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,279
Is what the DM says and not the person.

346
00:16:25,039 --> 00:16:27,360
Now I stumble up wheezing at this point.

347
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,879
Yeah, no, you were there, but they kind of zipped ahead of you.

348
00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,759
Guys, just I need like two minutes.

349
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:41,039
22.

350
00:16:41,919 --> 00:16:42,960
14.

351
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,720
We're going to call one of them Dirk and Flounder.

352
00:16:47,519 --> 00:16:52,080
Oh, I feel like Flounder's going down first, and I don't know why.

353
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,200
You don't know that.

354
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,840
Flounder might have all the fights.

355
00:16:58,639 --> 00:17:00,560
That's not how you say that.

356
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,399
That doesn't even mean anything.

357
00:17:02,399 --> 00:17:03,680
Nularaaaa, you're up first.

358
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:05,120
Uh, great.

359
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,319
Are they both just human dudes?

360
00:17:10,319 --> 00:17:13,759
They both appear to just be human dudes.

361
00:17:13,759 --> 00:17:16,240
Both also look as if they are.

362
00:17:16,559 --> 00:17:18,559
They're both brandishing short swords,

363
00:17:18,559 --> 00:17:23,680
but both appear to be reaching into a satchel as well as they turn to face you.

364
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,039
Fucking satchels and their dumb magic ingredients.

365
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:33,519
Okay, I guess I will just attack the one that is closest to me with Dragon Slayer.

366
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:35,440
We're going to say that's Dirk.

367
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,880
Okay, so that is a 15.

368
00:17:39,599 --> 00:17:40,480
15?

369
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,640
15 does not hit.

370
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:43,440
Son of a bitch.

371
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:44,960
Let me try again.

372
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:46,799
We know that 15 doesn't work now.

373
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:48,559
How about 20?

374
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:52,000
Not a crit.

375
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,200
Yeah, 20 will hit.

376
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:54,160
Great.

377
00:17:55,039 --> 00:17:56,640
20 hits most things.

378
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,279
Yeah, I'd be scared if it did.

379
00:18:00,319 --> 00:18:01,279
I mean, more scared?

380
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:02,880
20 damage.

381
00:18:03,519 --> 00:18:09,200
So you run and I'd assume take like a flying jump past your friends

382
00:18:09,279 --> 00:18:16,720
and strike into the first cultist who is otherwise known as Dirk to our,

383
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:18,799
he has a name tag.

384
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:20,640
So I'm new here.

385
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:20,960
Dirk.

386
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,319
There's so many new people, right?

387
00:18:22,319 --> 00:18:26,480
Yeah, they all look the same with their robes and their chain.

388
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:28,960
They've got to have something that separates them.

389
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:29,360
Yeah, that makes sense.

390
00:18:29,360 --> 00:18:29,759
Cool.

391
00:18:29,759 --> 00:18:34,799
Then Donny is going to try and recharge his, oh, and he does.

392
00:18:34,799 --> 00:18:38,480
He rolled a five, so he's recharged his fire breath.

393
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,600
So if I can try and get both of them, that'd be great.

394
00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,720
If not, just the one is fine also.

395
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:49,920
Yeah, yeah, like you're the, so he's kind of coming in behind.

396
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,319
So beside me, I guess.

397
00:18:52,319 --> 00:18:53,279
Yeah, sure.

398
00:18:53,279 --> 00:18:53,779
Yeah.

399
00:18:55,120 --> 00:18:55,620
Yep.

400
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:57,680
Sorry, Dex save.

401
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:58,720
Dex save, yeah.

402
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:00,400
Nine and a 12.

403
00:19:01,039 --> 00:19:02,960
Okay, well, those are both going to fail.

404
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:07,840
I only have out three D10s for some reason because I'm a bing bong.

405
00:19:08,799 --> 00:19:10,000
Classic bing bong move.

406
00:19:12,879 --> 00:19:15,919
That's 18 fire damage.

407
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:23,359
So Dirk is first in that line and his clothes alight as he kind of tries to shield himself.

408
00:19:24,959 --> 00:19:31,039
Flounder kind of looks like he's, he doesn't look like he likes it,

409
00:19:31,039 --> 00:19:33,679
but he's looking like he's taking it okay.

410
00:19:34,959 --> 00:19:35,459
Okay.

411
00:19:35,759 --> 00:19:36,959
Is that all you've got?

412
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:38,100
Rude.

413
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,480
Then he will try and bite Flounder, like the one that was less affected.

414
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:42,980
Sure.

415
00:19:43,039 --> 00:19:45,279
Okay, that is a 21.

416
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,360
Donnie stepping up.

417
00:19:47,360 --> 00:19:48,000
You got it.

418
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,759
And that is 12 piercing damage.

419
00:19:51,759 --> 00:19:55,120
As he's like, bring it, he brings it.

420
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,160
Donnie decides to, in fact, bring it.

421
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:04,799
He takes him at his word and he takes a big, big old chomp out of that attack.

422
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:06,480
It is Dirk's turn.

423
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,159
Dirk pulls out of his bag a glowing green orb.

424
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,159
He begins to throw it at you.

425
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:17,460
17.

426
00:20:19,119 --> 00:20:20,000
At me?

427
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:20,500
Yeah.

428
00:20:20,559 --> 00:20:21,059
Yeah.

429
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:26,000
You are struck by this orb and it explodes at you.

430
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:28,879
27 poison damage.

431
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,119
Son of a bitch.

432
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:31,619
Rude.

433
00:20:31,620 --> 00:20:32,120
Rude.

434
00:20:33,300 --> 00:20:37,860
Thank God I have this armor on, because otherwise I would have been dead like three fights ago.

435
00:20:39,380 --> 00:20:40,100
Flint.

436
00:20:40,100 --> 00:20:41,060
You are up next.

437
00:20:41,700 --> 00:20:43,220
Flounder within reach?

438
00:20:44,100 --> 00:20:45,060
Flounder, yeah.

439
00:20:45,060 --> 00:20:47,380
He would be within range of you, yeah.

440
00:20:47,380 --> 00:20:49,300
I'll go kick his ass for a while.

441
00:20:49,300 --> 00:20:50,180
Don't even worry about it.

442
00:20:52,500 --> 00:20:55,940
I'm assuming my moist tongue longsword is still moist?

443
00:20:55,940 --> 00:20:57,060
Yeah, yeah, it's still moist.

444
00:20:57,940 --> 00:20:59,220
That's a 27.

445
00:20:59,220 --> 00:21:00,740
Yeah, yeah, that hits.

446
00:21:02,580 --> 00:21:03,940
23 damage.

447
00:21:05,060 --> 00:21:06,100
And it's all wet.

448
00:21:06,980 --> 00:21:08,020
He takes a big old...

449
00:21:11,540 --> 00:21:12,100
Careful now.

450
00:21:12,100 --> 00:21:12,600
A big what?

451
00:21:13,940 --> 00:21:19,060
A big old sloppy hit from your moist tongue's longsword.

452
00:21:19,060 --> 00:21:20,020
I thought you were gonna...

453
00:21:20,020 --> 00:21:21,540
Yep, all right, we're just gonna move along.

454
00:21:23,140 --> 00:21:23,860
Second attack.

455
00:21:24,980 --> 00:21:29,060
Can't wait till I get to these episodes and have to do the sound effects for these ones.

456
00:21:30,019 --> 00:21:32,259
That is a 19 that time.

457
00:21:32,259 --> 00:21:33,139
Still hits, yeah.

458
00:21:34,579 --> 00:21:36,099
24 damage that time.

459
00:21:37,460 --> 00:21:44,099
Yeah, he screams out in pain as you strike into him again, and he's like, why am I wet?

460
00:21:44,099 --> 00:21:45,460
Good question, asshole.

461
00:21:45,460 --> 00:21:46,019
Third attack.

462
00:21:49,220 --> 00:21:50,019
It's a 24.

463
00:21:51,700 --> 00:21:53,139
19 damage that time.

464
00:21:54,659 --> 00:21:56,740
And how's he looking, Russell?

465
00:21:57,700 --> 00:22:04,259
He's looking confused as to why this weapon has made him this way.

466
00:22:05,779 --> 00:22:10,099
Both quite seriously injured and moist.

467
00:22:10,819 --> 00:22:11,700
Okay, perfect.

468
00:22:11,700 --> 00:22:13,940
I'm gonna action surge and hit him one more time.

469
00:22:13,940 --> 00:22:14,440
Okay.

470
00:22:16,019 --> 00:22:17,299
You're giving him a real licking.

471
00:22:17,940 --> 00:22:18,740
It's a nat 20.

472
00:22:21,380 --> 00:22:22,420
Yeah, give it to him.

473
00:22:22,420 --> 00:22:24,819
So we're just gonna double everything.

474
00:22:24,819 --> 00:22:25,460
Hang on here.

475
00:22:27,460 --> 00:22:29,140
God, give it to him.

476
00:22:29,140 --> 00:22:30,500
We're doubling things.

477
00:22:31,380 --> 00:22:31,880
That's right.

478
00:22:32,980 --> 00:22:33,380
That's right.

479
00:22:33,380 --> 00:22:34,740
Flink can go more than once.

480
00:22:34,740 --> 00:22:36,099
Thank you very much.

481
00:22:36,099 --> 00:22:39,220
If you're stabbing him twice, is it double penetration?

482
00:22:40,579 --> 00:22:41,700
I mean, I would have to assume so.

483
00:22:41,700 --> 00:22:45,220
You stabbed him four times at this point, so.

484
00:22:45,220 --> 00:22:47,620
Yeah, but this is like double damage.

485
00:22:47,620 --> 00:22:48,120
Yep.

486
00:22:48,579 --> 00:22:50,579
So the first one, I think I said 26.

487
00:22:50,579 --> 00:22:52,339
I already lost track of it for the first one.

488
00:22:53,140 --> 00:22:55,940
Second one is 17, 22, 23.

489
00:22:55,940 --> 00:22:58,980
So all said and done, 49 points of damage.

490
00:22:58,980 --> 00:23:02,580
Tell me how you decimate Flounder.

491
00:23:03,220 --> 00:23:10,019
Yeah, after seeing the initial confusion on his face as to why he was wet all of a sudden,

492
00:23:10,019 --> 00:23:15,220
I used that slight opening to absolutely just run him through.

493
00:23:16,340 --> 00:23:20,740
Like just from tip to hilt all the way to the balls.

494
00:23:20,819 --> 00:23:27,380
I would assume the sword has balls because thank you.

495
00:23:27,380 --> 00:23:29,700
Yeah, absolutely.

496
00:23:30,259 --> 00:23:35,299
He he he long ago forgot what he was trying to do in this.

497
00:23:35,299 --> 00:23:42,819
Wondering why in his in his in his eyes, you see the question why he stopped to turn to fight.

498
00:23:42,819 --> 00:23:48,660
And then you see the recollection as to it was Dirk who who started the fight

499
00:23:49,620 --> 00:23:51,860
looks over to his buddy and then dies.

500
00:23:52,900 --> 00:23:54,019
Et tu, Dirk?

501
00:24:00,019 --> 00:24:01,300
Well, hello there.

502
00:24:01,300 --> 00:24:03,380
Welcome to the middle of the episode.

503
00:24:03,380 --> 00:24:06,900
Thank you for joining us for episode 79 of Dumbgeons and Dragons.

504
00:24:07,460 --> 00:24:08,660
A time to run.

505
00:24:10,980 --> 00:24:12,019
Remember that one?

506
00:24:12,019 --> 00:24:15,940
Yeah, it's very like a very difficult title.

507
00:24:15,940 --> 00:24:18,100
It's not usually a move that we do too often.

508
00:24:18,660 --> 00:24:21,540
I know we should maybe consider more.

509
00:24:21,540 --> 00:24:25,460
It's it's a whole, you know, character growth thing,

510
00:24:25,460 --> 00:24:27,460
I think is what we're going for in this episode.

511
00:24:28,259 --> 00:24:30,259
Perfect. Here's my time to shine.

512
00:24:30,259 --> 00:24:31,060
Okay, great.

513
00:24:31,060 --> 00:24:33,860
Kidding. It's not my time to shine, but I forgot to tell you guys.

514
00:24:33,860 --> 00:24:36,019
So I listened to a lot of podcasts.

515
00:24:36,019 --> 00:24:39,140
That's not what I forgot to tell you, but I listened to a ton of podcasts.

516
00:24:39,140 --> 00:24:43,380
And the other day, my phone was like, nope.

517
00:24:43,860 --> 00:24:45,779
And everything was gone.

518
00:24:45,940 --> 00:24:47,139
No!

519
00:24:47,139 --> 00:24:49,700
And when I went, like it just like,

520
00:24:50,500 --> 00:24:53,539
this happens all the time with not the podcast app.

521
00:24:53,539 --> 00:24:56,420
Like it just like disappears and then you have to reload it.

522
00:24:56,420 --> 00:24:58,980
So I did that and I went back and there was nothing in it.

523
00:24:58,980 --> 00:25:00,740
Like no shows, nothing.

524
00:25:00,740 --> 00:25:04,259
Like it was like I had just opened the podcast app for the first time.

525
00:25:04,259 --> 00:25:04,899
Oh my God.

526
00:25:04,899 --> 00:25:07,700
And I was like, oh God.

527
00:25:07,700 --> 00:25:12,339
So then it was like, we're going to rebuild your library.

528
00:25:12,899 --> 00:25:14,819
Okay. And I'm like, okay, that'd be great.

529
00:25:14,819 --> 00:25:15,700
Oh, yes, please.

530
00:25:15,700 --> 00:25:16,419
Thank you.

531
00:25:16,419 --> 00:25:22,579
So it loads like six shows and like an episode of each.

532
00:25:22,579 --> 00:25:27,220
And I don't know about you guys, but I have like 30 podcasts that I have.

533
00:25:27,220 --> 00:25:30,259
Like, even if I don't actively have downloaded episodes,

534
00:25:30,259 --> 00:25:35,299
I like will download one and then keep it on my shows so that I remember like,

535
00:25:35,299 --> 00:25:36,419
oh, I like this one.

536
00:25:36,419 --> 00:25:38,500
I'm going to download more when I have time.

537
00:25:38,500 --> 00:25:40,500
So you can pop in and like see who's on it.

538
00:25:40,500 --> 00:25:41,460
Yes, exactly.

539
00:25:42,420 --> 00:25:45,299
Um, so that was the worst because of course,

540
00:25:45,299 --> 00:25:49,140
there are like five shows that I for sure know that I listened to.

541
00:25:50,500 --> 00:25:52,420
And then I was like, I don't even know.

542
00:25:52,420 --> 00:25:53,460
I have a terrible memory.

543
00:25:53,460 --> 00:25:54,420
Like it's all gone.

544
00:25:54,980 --> 00:25:56,819
I don't remember what I listened to.

545
00:25:56,819 --> 00:25:58,019
I don't remember what to do.

546
00:25:58,740 --> 00:26:00,019
I remember what to do, but.

547
00:26:00,819 --> 00:26:02,740
This is your podcast within a podcast.

548
00:26:02,740 --> 00:26:04,180
Carla's phone does stupid shit.

549
00:26:04,180 --> 00:26:04,500
Yeah.

550
00:26:04,500 --> 00:26:06,980
Or like my podcast within a podcast.

551
00:26:06,980 --> 00:26:08,500
Carla sure likes podcasts.

552
00:26:09,460 --> 00:26:10,660
Are any podcasts?

553
00:26:11,700 --> 00:26:12,180
I'm done.

554
00:26:12,180 --> 00:26:13,059
That was my story.

555
00:26:13,700 --> 00:26:18,180
And if you like podcasts, maybe you consider specifically our podcast,

556
00:26:18,180 --> 00:26:20,259
not just any podcast, but our podcast.

557
00:26:21,140 --> 00:26:24,579
Consider visiting Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast

558
00:26:24,579 --> 00:26:28,019
where we have just revamped all of our goals.

559
00:26:28,019 --> 00:26:29,779
Did we do it or did you do it?

560
00:26:29,779 --> 00:26:31,539
I gave you guys some input in that.

561
00:26:31,539 --> 00:26:32,660
I told you what I did.

562
00:26:32,660 --> 00:26:34,099
Yeah, that's wonderful.

563
00:26:35,539 --> 00:26:36,420
Bang up job, honey.

564
00:26:37,300 --> 00:26:39,700
So the goal we're working towards now,

565
00:26:39,700 --> 00:26:41,539
we're going to be streaming a one shot

566
00:26:41,539 --> 00:26:44,420
where we play that Carly Rae Jepsen thing.

567
00:26:44,420 --> 00:26:45,539
That looks so fun.

568
00:26:45,539 --> 00:26:46,100
What is it?

569
00:26:46,100 --> 00:26:48,340
It's like Boy Problems or something.

570
00:26:48,980 --> 00:26:50,500
It's called Boy Problems.

571
00:26:50,500 --> 00:26:54,660
It's like a heist themed adventure

572
00:26:54,660 --> 00:26:56,420
where she gets her songs stolen

573
00:26:56,420 --> 00:26:58,660
and the adventures have to get them back.

574
00:26:59,300 --> 00:27:02,340
So we're going to do that when we hit our next goal.

575
00:27:02,340 --> 00:27:03,779
But also there's a goal after that

576
00:27:03,859 --> 00:27:06,420
where we're going to do a Flame McKin's backstory episode

577
00:27:07,299 --> 00:27:08,899
because everybody's been asking for that.

578
00:27:09,619 --> 00:27:10,980
It's going to be so awesome.

579
00:27:10,980 --> 00:27:13,379
And then if you keep going up a little bit more,

580
00:27:13,379 --> 00:27:16,500
there's a goal where we're going to play an Austin Powers themed episode.

581
00:27:17,059 --> 00:27:18,740
And how are we going to do that?

582
00:27:18,740 --> 00:27:21,299
Well, we're going to make it all up.

583
00:27:21,299 --> 00:27:25,299
So that will be like total original content

584
00:27:25,940 --> 00:27:27,700
that no one asked for.

585
00:27:28,740 --> 00:27:29,779
No one asked for this,

586
00:27:29,779 --> 00:27:32,420
but they're going to get the brainchild of the four of us.

587
00:27:32,420 --> 00:27:33,779
It's going to be horrific, you guys.

588
00:27:33,779 --> 00:27:34,580
It's going to be so good.

589
00:27:34,580 --> 00:27:35,060
Let's get there.

590
00:27:36,259 --> 00:27:39,539
It doesn't matter how it might take us 10 years to get to that goal,

591
00:27:40,100 --> 00:27:42,019
but we're going to watch Austin Powers,

592
00:27:42,019 --> 00:27:44,019
all three of them, once a week until then.

593
00:27:44,019 --> 00:27:46,019
I did not agree to this.

594
00:27:46,019 --> 00:27:48,100
No, it's in the fine print.

595
00:27:48,100 --> 00:27:50,820
That seems like a promise I don't think we can keep.

596
00:27:50,820 --> 00:27:53,060
Anyways, Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast.

597
00:27:53,060 --> 00:27:55,860
Lots of new great goals up there to give you more content,

598
00:27:55,860 --> 00:27:58,019
lots of great stuff to get to you.

599
00:27:58,019 --> 00:28:00,980
Extra bonus stuff for supporting us

600
00:28:01,059 --> 00:28:02,740
because thank you.

601
00:28:03,299 --> 00:28:05,140
And if you're unable to join us on Patreon,

602
00:28:05,140 --> 00:28:07,299
which sometimes that happens and that's totally okay.

603
00:28:07,299 --> 00:28:08,339
We get it.

604
00:28:08,339 --> 00:28:09,940
But you still want to help out the show.

605
00:28:10,500 --> 00:28:13,700
We invite you to write a review and rating for us

606
00:28:14,259 --> 00:28:16,660
like some of these lovely people right here.

607
00:28:16,660 --> 00:28:23,940
This one is from Grarock via Apple Podcasts from the U.S.

608
00:28:23,940 --> 00:28:25,059
And they say, love it.

609
00:28:25,620 --> 00:28:26,740
Okay, first and foremost,

610
00:28:26,740 --> 00:28:28,900
I came upon you guys by complete accident,

611
00:28:28,900 --> 00:28:32,820
but it was a happy accident like Bob Ross and his happy little trees.

612
00:28:32,820 --> 00:28:34,740
I listen to you guys at work all the time

613
00:28:34,740 --> 00:28:36,900
and just love each and every one of the characters

614
00:28:36,900 --> 00:28:39,220
and personalities you bring to the table.

615
00:28:39,220 --> 00:28:42,019
I have had to stop myself from trying to chime in

616
00:28:42,019 --> 00:28:44,740
and be like, oh, hey, guys, remember you have so and so,

617
00:28:45,700 --> 00:28:47,220
which would have probably been very helpful.

618
00:28:47,220 --> 00:28:48,660
Meet him on like an inner ear thing.

619
00:28:48,660 --> 00:28:49,460
Yeah, that would be great.

620
00:28:50,340 --> 00:28:52,980
But I remember I'm at work and may look like a loony.

621
00:28:53,620 --> 00:28:55,380
Anywho, you guys are awesome

622
00:28:55,380 --> 00:28:58,660
and I love hearing about the adventures of Flinthia and Nulara.

623
00:28:58,660 --> 00:29:02,100
Keep it up, guys. Sincerely, Grarock.

624
00:29:02,100 --> 00:29:05,460
And then in brackets, he says, that's my actual last name.

625
00:29:05,460 --> 00:29:06,740
That's a fun last name.

626
00:29:06,740 --> 00:29:07,620
Oh, okay.

627
00:29:07,620 --> 00:29:09,779
It is extremely difficult to say, you guys.

628
00:29:10,420 --> 00:29:10,980
Grarock.

629
00:29:11,700 --> 00:29:12,180
Grarock.

630
00:29:13,140 --> 00:29:13,940
Grarock.

631
00:29:13,940 --> 00:29:14,580
Grarock.

632
00:29:14,580 --> 00:29:16,820
If we're saying that wrong, please let us know.

633
00:29:17,380 --> 00:29:18,660
There's not even a word anymore.

634
00:29:18,660 --> 00:29:19,140
Let us know.

635
00:29:19,860 --> 00:29:21,220
We mess up names all the time.

636
00:29:21,220 --> 00:29:23,300
We mess up names within our own show all the time.

637
00:29:23,300 --> 00:29:24,340
This is true.

638
00:29:24,340 --> 00:29:26,180
Jumjins and dragons.

639
00:29:26,180 --> 00:29:28,340
I have one from Podchaser.

640
00:29:28,740 --> 00:29:31,620
Lucky Bridget says, five stars, a hilarious adventure

641
00:29:31,620 --> 00:29:34,500
that has me grinning from ear to ear every time I listen.

642
00:29:35,620 --> 00:29:36,740
That's so nice.

643
00:29:36,740 --> 00:29:38,580
Thank you so much, Bridget.

644
00:29:38,580 --> 00:29:41,460
I also grabbed one from Podchaser

645
00:29:41,460 --> 00:29:43,380
and this one's from David Osteel.

646
00:29:44,259 --> 00:29:45,860
He gave us five stars, says,

647
00:29:45,860 --> 00:29:47,460
great friendly group of companions

648
00:29:47,460 --> 00:29:49,460
adventuring their way on the table.

649
00:29:49,460 --> 00:29:51,940
Feel free to jump in and get lost in the story.

650
00:29:51,940 --> 00:29:52,820
Thanks, David Osteel.

651
00:29:52,820 --> 00:29:53,620
God knows we are.

652
00:29:54,820 --> 00:29:55,380
Every time.

653
00:29:55,380 --> 00:29:56,259
Lost, so lost.

654
00:29:56,259 --> 00:29:57,540
Every time, so lost.

655
00:29:57,539 --> 00:29:58,740
Like a maze.

656
00:29:58,740 --> 00:30:00,339
Every episode is a maze.

657
00:30:00,339 --> 00:30:01,460
But thank you so much, everybody,

658
00:30:01,460 --> 00:30:02,259
for writing reviews.

659
00:30:02,259 --> 00:30:03,460
And if you write a review,

660
00:30:03,460 --> 00:30:04,659
we will read it right here.

661
00:30:04,659 --> 00:30:06,579
And thank you for being awesome

662
00:30:06,579 --> 00:30:08,339
because that's what we do.

663
00:30:08,339 --> 00:30:09,539
Links for those couple things

664
00:30:10,339 --> 00:30:11,619
that we mentioned today

665
00:30:11,619 --> 00:30:12,659
will be in the description.

666
00:30:13,299 --> 00:30:14,420
I didn't mention a lot.

667
00:30:14,420 --> 00:30:15,619
Usually I say everything,

668
00:30:15,619 --> 00:30:17,220
but now it's just a couple of things.

669
00:30:17,220 --> 00:30:19,299
Including where you can find us on Discord

670
00:30:20,019 --> 00:30:22,019
and the Reckless Play Guild Facebook group

671
00:30:22,019 --> 00:30:24,259
where we've joined up with some amazing podcasts.

672
00:30:24,259 --> 00:30:25,700
The End of Time and Other Bothers,

673
00:30:25,700 --> 00:30:27,299
Dark Dice, and the Lucky Die.

674
00:30:27,940 --> 00:30:29,539
And this Friday,

675
00:30:30,259 --> 00:30:33,140
I interviewed him from the Lucky Die.

676
00:30:33,140 --> 00:30:34,500
And that interview,

677
00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:35,700
type B interview,

678
00:30:35,700 --> 00:30:37,220
is coming out to the Facebook group.

679
00:30:37,220 --> 00:30:38,420
So come join us over there

680
00:30:38,420 --> 00:30:39,539
and find out some great things

681
00:30:39,539 --> 00:30:41,220
about him and her podcast.

682
00:30:41,220 --> 00:30:41,539
Awesome.

683
00:30:41,539 --> 00:30:43,700
I've really enjoyed reading all of them so far.

684
00:30:43,700 --> 00:30:44,900
Yeah, I like the, like,

685
00:30:44,900 --> 00:30:45,940
switch-em-up style.

686
00:30:45,940 --> 00:30:47,460
We've interviewed all the DMs

687
00:30:47,460 --> 00:30:48,900
and players are coming up next.

688
00:30:49,860 --> 00:30:51,620
So you get to find out about all of us.

689
00:30:52,259 --> 00:30:53,380
Final thanks to Sirenscape

690
00:30:53,380 --> 00:30:54,900

691
00:30:54,900 --> 00:30:55,860
used in today's episode.

692
00:30:55,860 --> 00:30:56,660

693
00:30:56,660 --> 00:30:59,300

694
00:30:59,860 --> 00:31:00,900
And the next episode,

695
00:31:00,900 --> 00:31:02,980
it'll be out Wednesday, April 10th.

696
00:31:03,700 --> 00:31:04,900
So let's get back to this one

697
00:31:04,900 --> 00:31:06,500
and see if they're still running.

698
00:31:06,500 --> 00:31:07,700
I can't remember where we cut.

699
00:31:09,220 --> 00:31:09,940
Maybe they are.

700
00:31:09,940 --> 00:31:10,900
Maybe they aren't.

701
00:31:10,900 --> 00:31:11,940
Have a great week.

702
00:31:11,940 --> 00:31:12,740
We'll talk to you soon.

703
00:31:17,940 --> 00:31:20,100
Sorry, you stabbed him with the sword

704
00:31:20,100 --> 00:31:20,900
balls deep?

705
00:31:21,460 --> 00:31:22,019
That's correct.

706
00:31:22,660 --> 00:31:25,619
Oh my god, somebody please fan art that.

707
00:31:26,339 --> 00:31:27,220
Whose turn is it?

708
00:31:27,220 --> 00:31:27,859
I don't even know.

709
00:31:27,859 --> 00:31:28,500
Are you done?

710
00:31:28,500 --> 00:31:30,019
I haven't done my turn yet.

711
00:31:30,019 --> 00:31:30,819
Do I get to go?

712
00:31:31,460 --> 00:31:32,420
Is there anything left?

713
00:31:32,420 --> 00:31:34,099
Well, it was Flounder's turn,

714
00:31:34,099 --> 00:31:35,059
but not anymore.

715
00:31:36,019 --> 00:31:36,980
Thea, you get to go.

716
00:31:40,019 --> 00:31:42,660
I'm going to see if I recharge my breath weapon.

717
00:31:44,740 --> 00:31:45,460
I do not.

718
00:31:46,019 --> 00:31:50,019
So I am going to bite at Dirk.

719
00:31:50,980 --> 00:31:51,779
A 20.

720
00:31:51,779 --> 00:31:53,379
Yeah, 20 hits.

721
00:31:53,379 --> 00:31:55,379
And as I run towards him,

722
00:31:55,379 --> 00:31:58,259
I say, take this, Dork, because.

723
00:31:58,259 --> 00:31:59,299
Oh, snap.

724
00:32:00,259 --> 00:32:01,299
Scathing.

725
00:32:01,299 --> 00:32:02,099
Yeah.

726
00:32:02,099 --> 00:32:03,299
And he says back,

727
00:32:03,299 --> 00:32:06,019
I feel like I'm in grade school all over again.

728
00:32:07,139 --> 00:32:08,660
This is why I joined the cult.

729
00:32:09,859 --> 00:32:11,859
So I could get away from these horrid names.

730
00:32:13,379 --> 00:32:16,420
13 piercing damage.

731
00:32:17,299 --> 00:32:18,579
And you have to succeed

732
00:32:18,579 --> 00:32:20,740
on a strength saving throw or be knocked prone.

733
00:32:21,460 --> 00:32:21,960
14.

734
00:32:23,299 --> 00:32:24,500
It is a 14, so.

735
00:32:25,139 --> 00:32:26,099
Dirk is not prone.

736
00:32:26,099 --> 00:32:28,579
He is pierced, but not prone.

737
00:32:28,579 --> 00:32:29,539
Question.

738
00:32:29,539 --> 00:32:31,619
Did I take guacamole out?

739
00:32:31,619 --> 00:32:32,419
Did you though?

740
00:32:32,419 --> 00:32:33,139
I think you did.

741
00:32:33,139 --> 00:32:33,859
I think I may have.

742
00:32:33,859 --> 00:32:36,500
I think you just forgot on the last one.

743
00:32:36,500 --> 00:32:37,859
Yeah, we just haven't been.

744
00:32:37,859 --> 00:32:39,299
Coming around the corner,

745
00:32:39,299 --> 00:32:41,139
following in behind the Brass Dragon.

746
00:32:45,539 --> 00:32:46,899
Insert owl noise here.

747
00:32:46,900 --> 00:32:48,500
And she swoops in and has a turn.

748
00:32:50,180 --> 00:32:51,860
I was wondering about that.

749
00:32:54,019 --> 00:32:54,980
Now that you mention it,

750
00:32:54,980 --> 00:32:58,019
I am 100% sure that you summoned guacamole.

751
00:32:58,019 --> 00:33:00,019
Yeah, I kind of remember wondering like,

752
00:33:00,019 --> 00:33:03,460
oh, hey, is there enough room for guacamole in these tunnels?

753
00:33:03,460 --> 00:33:07,460
And you're like, yeah, they're the tunnels are like 25 feet by whatever.

754
00:33:07,460 --> 00:33:10,259
And I'm like, oh, OK, that's how that conversation went.

755
00:33:10,259 --> 00:33:11,700
So nobody has to go back and listen.

756
00:33:11,700 --> 00:33:12,580
It's exactly how it went.

757
00:33:12,580 --> 00:33:13,460
That's just how it happened.

758
00:33:14,100 --> 00:33:17,299
So she is going to attack with her talons.

759
00:33:18,740 --> 00:33:20,180
She got lost in the dark caves.

760
00:33:20,180 --> 00:33:20,900
She did.

761
00:33:20,900 --> 00:33:22,660
And she's still a little bit confused.

762
00:33:22,660 --> 00:33:24,019
That's only a nine.

763
00:33:24,019 --> 00:33:26,100
She swoops in more spooks.

764
00:33:27,059 --> 00:33:27,620
Dirk.

765
00:33:27,620 --> 00:33:29,700
Yeah, as it now becomes around them.

766
00:33:29,700 --> 00:33:32,660
Yeah, feathers, feathers everywhere.

767
00:33:32,660 --> 00:33:34,579
As Nulara's turn comes back.

768
00:33:36,980 --> 00:33:38,019
Great, great.

769
00:33:38,660 --> 00:33:40,500
Carla's like, oh, I have to wake up now.

770
00:33:40,500 --> 00:33:41,779
It's been such a long time.

771
00:33:42,579 --> 00:33:44,019
It's a lot that happened.

772
00:33:44,019 --> 00:33:46,420
It's just because there's only two bad guys.

773
00:33:46,420 --> 00:33:47,940
Well, and now only one bad guy.

774
00:33:47,940 --> 00:33:51,059
Usually there's a lot more enemies that get turns in between there.

775
00:33:51,859 --> 00:33:56,259
OK, more sorting, I believe, is the verb.

776
00:33:56,259 --> 00:33:56,899
That is the one.

777
00:33:57,700 --> 00:33:58,579
It's a 19.

778
00:33:59,619 --> 00:33:59,859
Yes.

779
00:34:00,660 --> 00:34:01,779
15 damage.

780
00:34:02,500 --> 00:34:06,019
In his confusion, he doesn't see your sword coming.

781
00:34:06,019 --> 00:34:07,859
See, guacamole helped.

782
00:34:07,859 --> 00:34:09,699
And let's out a cry.

783
00:34:09,699 --> 00:34:11,219
One more of those.

784
00:34:11,219 --> 00:34:12,339
That is a 16.

785
00:34:13,379 --> 00:34:14,500
16 will hit.

786
00:34:14,500 --> 00:34:15,000
OK.

787
00:34:16,819 --> 00:34:18,099
22 damage.

788
00:34:20,099 --> 00:34:23,299
He's bleeding from underneath his robes.

789
00:34:24,019 --> 00:34:24,579
Puddles.

790
00:34:24,579 --> 00:34:25,939
And no, not puddles.

791
00:34:25,939 --> 00:34:28,339
Puddles is a bad way to describe blood.

792
00:34:28,339 --> 00:34:28,839
Pools.

793
00:34:29,539 --> 00:34:31,779
Pools of blood begin form underneath him.

794
00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:35,539
Nulara puts on her wellies and starts splashing around.

795
00:34:36,259 --> 00:34:38,179
As he reaches for yet another orb.

796
00:34:38,179 --> 00:34:41,539
But Donnie gets a turn before he does anything with it.

797
00:34:41,539 --> 00:34:45,460
Donnie will try to recharge, which he does.

798
00:34:45,460 --> 00:34:46,259
Yeah, Donnie.

799
00:34:46,899 --> 00:34:47,940
Fire weapon.

800
00:34:47,940 --> 00:34:50,019
You need to do a DC save.

801
00:34:52,819 --> 00:34:53,319
Nope.

802
00:34:55,299 --> 00:34:56,019
That's a three.

803
00:34:58,019 --> 00:35:00,419
Guacamole really like knocked him off his game.

804
00:35:01,219 --> 00:35:04,259
Nobody expects a giant bird come flying at you.

805
00:35:04,660 --> 00:35:09,460
OK, so this is some big math.

806
00:35:10,180 --> 00:35:11,780
Oh, I like this.

807
00:35:11,780 --> 00:35:15,060
15 plus 16 is 31.

808
00:35:15,700 --> 00:35:17,540
Damn, Donnie.

809
00:35:17,540 --> 00:35:22,580
Describe to me the scene as Dirk goes up in flames.

810
00:35:23,620 --> 00:35:27,700
I think Donnie pretty nonchAlydintly shoots the flame.

811
00:35:27,700 --> 00:35:30,340
But then after he does it, he spins.

812
00:35:30,340 --> 00:35:34,100
And him and guacamole kind of slap wings.

813
00:35:34,099 --> 00:35:34,739
Like Talon.

814
00:35:34,739 --> 00:35:35,380
Like a high five.

815
00:35:35,380 --> 00:35:36,420
Oh, slap wings.

816
00:35:37,940 --> 00:35:38,900
Because he's stoked.

817
00:35:38,900 --> 00:35:40,739
Kind of in like a twirl of flame.

818
00:35:40,739 --> 00:35:41,219
Yeah.

819
00:35:41,219 --> 00:35:43,219
Yeah, he's pretty stoked that his

820
00:35:44,739 --> 00:35:47,699
B-winged friend is there with him again now.

821
00:35:47,699 --> 00:35:50,019
As he screams and drops to his knees.

822
00:35:50,019 --> 00:35:53,539
The orb falls to the ground and rolls towards you.

823
00:35:53,539 --> 00:35:58,019
And the light goes out as the last dying breath of Dirk

824
00:35:58,819 --> 00:36:00,179
vacates his body.

825
00:36:01,380 --> 00:36:02,179
Take that, Dirk.

826
00:36:02,819 --> 00:36:04,739
You're standing in a corridor.

827
00:36:04,739 --> 00:36:08,339
You hear screams coming from down the hall

828
00:36:08,339 --> 00:36:11,779
from what sounds like a dragon devouring them.

829
00:36:13,219 --> 00:36:13,859
You have...

830
00:36:13,859 --> 00:36:15,059
Probably our dragon, so that's cool.

831
00:36:15,059 --> 00:36:16,659
Screams to the left me.

832
00:36:16,659 --> 00:36:17,940
Sounds to the right.

833
00:36:17,940 --> 00:36:18,739
Here I am.

834
00:36:20,579 --> 00:36:22,099
Before we do anything else,

835
00:36:22,099 --> 00:36:25,460
can I use my amlet of temporary health

836
00:36:25,460 --> 00:36:28,500
to give myself 20 HP for today?

837
00:36:29,859 --> 00:36:30,099
Yes.

838
00:36:30,099 --> 00:36:30,659
Great.

839
00:36:30,659 --> 00:36:31,219
Yes, you can.

840
00:36:31,940 --> 00:36:33,059
Good memory, Carla.

841
00:36:34,179 --> 00:36:36,099
Any other potions you want to just down

842
00:36:36,099 --> 00:36:36,819
while you're at it?

843
00:36:36,819 --> 00:36:38,099
We've got randos here.

844
00:36:38,819 --> 00:36:40,659
We have rando potions.

845
00:36:40,659 --> 00:36:43,299
Can I take a healing surge while we have a sec?

846
00:36:43,299 --> 00:36:44,659
Yeah, I mean, you know what?

847
00:36:44,659 --> 00:36:46,980
It's not a bad idea.

848
00:36:46,980 --> 00:36:48,339
I have a...

849
00:36:50,019 --> 00:36:52,099
Someone's got Andre's Gojuice.

850
00:36:52,659 --> 00:36:53,379
I have that.

851
00:36:53,379 --> 00:36:54,819
And I have Bee's Knees.

852
00:36:54,819 --> 00:36:55,940
You have Bee's Knees, so that means

853
00:36:55,940 --> 00:36:57,379
you've got glass jelly.

854
00:36:57,379 --> 00:36:59,379
Yeah, I also just have a health potion,

855
00:36:59,379 --> 00:37:00,500
which is probably...

856
00:37:01,219 --> 00:37:02,900
Potion of healing.

857
00:37:02,900 --> 00:37:05,219
Donnie's like, you know, remember those days

858
00:37:05,219 --> 00:37:08,579
when we used to loot bodies?

859
00:37:12,260 --> 00:37:13,619
I don't have hands, Donnie.

860
00:37:13,619 --> 00:37:16,340
I will loot Flounder's body.

861
00:37:16,900 --> 00:37:20,099
On his body, you find three more orbs.

862
00:37:20,099 --> 00:37:20,900
All dark?

863
00:37:20,900 --> 00:37:23,139
Yeah, because that's kind of canonically

864
00:37:23,139 --> 00:37:25,699
how I just did it.

865
00:37:25,699 --> 00:37:27,219
Just right now, these are useless.

866
00:37:27,219 --> 00:37:29,139
Why did you even loot this body?

867
00:37:29,139 --> 00:37:32,579
But you also find two other potions.

868
00:37:32,579 --> 00:37:33,940
Two other potions.

869
00:37:33,940 --> 00:37:34,420
Are they labeled?

870
00:37:34,420 --> 00:37:35,219
What do they look like?

871
00:37:35,219 --> 00:37:36,739
Red Glimering Liquids.

872
00:37:39,779 --> 00:37:41,059
Like my Life Essence potion?

873
00:37:41,059 --> 00:37:43,539
Is it similar to the Life Essence potion?

874
00:37:43,539 --> 00:37:44,339
It is similar.

875
00:37:45,940 --> 00:37:46,819
I don't like that.

876
00:37:46,819 --> 00:37:47,059
No.

877
00:37:47,059 --> 00:37:48,420
I don't like the way you said similar.

878
00:37:48,420 --> 00:37:49,619
It's very much the same.

879
00:37:50,739 --> 00:37:52,500
I'm like, someone should take these.

880
00:37:52,500 --> 00:37:53,460
I don't have hands.

881
00:37:54,500 --> 00:37:58,259
I'll give both of them to Nulara.

882
00:37:58,260 --> 00:37:59,940
I'm busy taking my own potion right now.

883
00:37:59,940 --> 00:38:02,980
That's why I'm not looting with you guys.

884
00:38:04,260 --> 00:38:06,180
Should I loot the other body, too, while I'm there?

885
00:38:06,180 --> 00:38:06,660
What I'm...

886
00:38:06,660 --> 00:38:08,580
I have available hands.

887
00:38:08,580 --> 00:38:09,700
What's left of it?

888
00:38:09,700 --> 00:38:10,980
Isn't it pretty charred?

889
00:38:10,980 --> 00:38:13,620
He is pretty charred, but his bag was to the side.

890
00:38:14,260 --> 00:38:16,100
Oh, for two it is.

891
00:38:16,100 --> 00:38:17,940
I go and I nudge my nose at his bag

892
00:38:17,940 --> 00:38:19,220
and pick it up with my teeth

893
00:38:19,220 --> 00:38:21,060
and kind of gently empty the contents.

894
00:38:21,060 --> 00:38:24,340
There is one more orb, also not lit.

895
00:38:25,220 --> 00:38:29,539
Two other potions, also a red Glimering liquid

896
00:38:30,100 --> 00:38:34,579
and a sketch of what looks to be the remains of...

897
00:38:34,579 --> 00:38:38,260
or was the living Dirk and his buddy Flounder.

898
00:38:41,539 --> 00:38:42,980
They stopped by the boardwalk

899
00:38:42,980 --> 00:38:44,500
before they came in a big fight.

900
00:38:45,300 --> 00:38:46,900
Are they both on skateboards?

901
00:38:46,900 --> 00:38:48,340
It is caricature-esque.

902
00:38:49,620 --> 00:38:50,260
That's fun.

903
00:38:50,900 --> 00:38:51,400
Yeah.

904
00:38:52,420 --> 00:38:54,980
I'm feeling much better after that fight.

905
00:38:54,980 --> 00:38:56,340
Well, not after that fight.

906
00:38:56,340 --> 00:38:58,340
After all that healing I just did.

907
00:38:58,340 --> 00:38:58,740
Perfect.

908
00:38:58,740 --> 00:39:00,980
I see someone come and take these ones as well.

909
00:39:01,700 --> 00:39:02,420
These ones here.

910
00:39:02,420 --> 00:39:03,620
I'm nudging and rolling them.

911
00:39:03,620 --> 00:39:04,980
Oh, God.

912
00:39:04,980 --> 00:39:06,740
I'll grab them all like a big old hoarder.

913
00:39:06,740 --> 00:39:09,860
You can throw them at us when we need them.

914
00:39:09,860 --> 00:39:11,860
So you have the direction in which you came,

915
00:39:11,860 --> 00:39:15,140
which you hear dragons and screaming and stuff,

916
00:39:15,140 --> 00:39:16,580
or the direction in which you run

917
00:39:16,580 --> 00:39:19,300
and which you can make a perception check

918
00:39:19,300 --> 00:39:20,740
to see if you hear anything new.

919
00:39:21,620 --> 00:39:22,500
Sure, why not?

920
00:39:22,500 --> 00:39:24,820
I would also like to perceive I have keen hearing.

921
00:39:25,860 --> 00:39:26,340
14.

922
00:39:26,340 --> 00:39:27,539
I just rolled a 10.

923
00:39:27,539 --> 00:39:29,460
Does keen hearing give me an advantage?

924
00:39:29,460 --> 00:39:30,019
Sure.

925
00:39:30,019 --> 00:39:30,519
Okay.

926
00:39:31,539 --> 00:39:32,580
You're actively hearing.

927
00:39:33,460 --> 00:39:35,300
17 is my perception.

928
00:39:36,340 --> 00:39:37,220
26.

929
00:39:37,220 --> 00:39:40,100
The rumbles of the dracorn are the only thing you hear

930
00:39:40,820 --> 00:39:44,100
echoing down the chamber of which you are walking.

931
00:39:44,100 --> 00:39:47,220
I want to keep going towards where I know the

932
00:39:47,860 --> 00:39:52,340
direction is towards the chamber like based on what I do.

933
00:39:52,340 --> 00:39:53,460
The told direction.

934
00:39:53,460 --> 00:39:56,180
Yeah, Steppen's knowledge.

935
00:39:56,180 --> 00:39:56,740
Steppen.

936
00:39:56,740 --> 00:39:57,620
There it is.

937
00:39:57,620 --> 00:40:00,500
You begin walking down the chamber.

938
00:40:00,500 --> 00:40:03,380
I think we're probably like trotting right a jog.

939
00:40:03,380 --> 00:40:05,300
Things are time is of the essence here.

940
00:40:05,300 --> 00:40:10,900
Yeah, you are briskly walking with intent and purpose

941
00:40:10,900 --> 00:40:12,900
and you get to a T intersection.

942
00:40:12,900 --> 00:40:14,180
So you're left or right?

943
00:40:14,180 --> 00:40:15,380
What would Britney Spears do?

944
00:40:18,180 --> 00:40:19,220
She'd work, bitch.

945
00:40:19,220 --> 00:40:21,140
What would Britney Spears do?

946
00:40:21,140 --> 00:40:22,900
She'd work, bitch.

947
00:40:25,780 --> 00:40:27,860
She's at a crossroads.

948
00:40:31,220 --> 00:40:32,900
So you could ask Britney Spears,

949
00:40:32,900 --> 00:40:35,220
what would Tom Hanks do in Cast Away?

950
00:40:37,220 --> 00:40:40,500
Both at a physical and metaphorical crossroads.

951
00:40:40,500 --> 00:40:41,700
What a hilarious ending.

952
00:40:42,340 --> 00:40:46,740
I'm listening with my keen hearing and it's an 18.

953
00:40:47,940 --> 00:40:49,860
No, sorry, 17.

954
00:40:49,860 --> 00:40:51,860
Amid the dull drone of the Drakorn,

955
00:40:51,860 --> 00:40:54,980
you hear echoes of battle both ways.

956
00:40:57,460 --> 00:40:59,300
Cool. Flip for it.

957
00:41:01,940 --> 00:41:03,860
I need Moony.

958
00:41:06,260 --> 00:41:07,540
I just edited this one.

959
00:41:07,540 --> 00:41:11,860
I need Moony Mitzi.

960
00:41:11,860 --> 00:41:13,380
There was no Mitzi.

961
00:41:14,900 --> 00:41:16,500
I need Minie Minimo.

962
00:41:17,460 --> 00:41:19,780
Anyway, nobody cared to write it down.

963
00:41:20,579 --> 00:41:21,860
It was so good when it happened.

964
00:41:21,860 --> 00:41:22,500
It was really good.

965
00:41:22,500 --> 00:41:23,699
It was so organic.

966
00:41:23,699 --> 00:41:25,619
It just came so naturally.

967
00:41:25,619 --> 00:41:27,699
I think we just want to keep heading

968
00:41:27,699 --> 00:41:31,619
deeper towards the center of the compound.

969
00:41:31,619 --> 00:41:33,300
That would be a southern direction.

970
00:41:33,300 --> 00:41:34,340
Okay, let's go south.

971
00:41:35,619 --> 00:41:37,300
So that is a right turn.

972
00:41:37,300 --> 00:41:38,099
Okay, then a right.

973
00:41:39,059 --> 00:41:39,780
It's all right.

974
00:41:39,780 --> 00:41:43,059
You're going south and you carry on a ways

975
00:41:43,059 --> 00:41:45,780
and it appears to get darker.

976
00:41:47,460 --> 00:41:48,900
You keep going.

977
00:41:48,900 --> 00:41:51,780
You don't hear any distinct voices coming

978
00:41:51,780 --> 00:41:53,699
from the direction ahead of you.

979
00:41:53,699 --> 00:41:59,059
And you see at the end kind of splintered light

980
00:41:59,059 --> 00:42:01,139
coming in at the end of the tunnel.

981
00:42:05,139 --> 00:42:09,539
You keep going and you see that there's a way

982
00:42:09,539 --> 00:42:12,019
to crawl through some rubble of what looks

983
00:42:12,019 --> 00:42:13,539
like perhaps a cave in.

984
00:42:14,179 --> 00:42:16,179
Does it look like it's a lot of hassle

985
00:42:16,179 --> 00:42:18,099
to crawl through or can we shimmy through

986
00:42:18,099 --> 00:42:18,739
pretty easily?

987
00:42:19,460 --> 00:42:21,860
Can us giant creatures fit through?

988
00:42:21,860 --> 00:42:22,900
There's my question.

989
00:42:24,179 --> 00:42:25,460
You giant creature?

990
00:42:25,460 --> 00:42:28,900
I'm a giant winter wolf and I have a giant owl.

991
00:42:31,300 --> 00:42:33,539
We are large and Donnie is large as well.

992
00:42:33,539 --> 00:42:34,659
Donnie's pretty big too.

993
00:42:36,179 --> 00:42:40,420
Yeah, I mean, yes, you all can probably

994
00:42:40,420 --> 00:42:40,900
fit through.

995
00:42:40,900 --> 00:42:43,380
There will need to be some maneuvering

996
00:42:43,460 --> 00:42:44,260
of boulders.

997
00:42:45,059 --> 00:42:48,660
It might take a little time, but I mean,

998
00:42:48,660 --> 00:42:50,260
you don't know what's necessarily

999
00:42:50,260 --> 00:42:51,059
on the other side.

1000
00:42:52,820 --> 00:42:54,260
But we know this is the way to get

1001
00:42:54,260 --> 00:42:55,300
closer to the center.

1002
00:42:56,260 --> 00:42:58,660
This is of the two directions

1003
00:42:58,660 --> 00:42:59,860
that you just had.

1004
00:42:59,860 --> 00:43:00,260
Yes.

1005
00:43:00,260 --> 00:43:02,180
Well, this has like some light

1006
00:43:02,180 --> 00:43:02,820
coming into it.

1007
00:43:02,820 --> 00:43:03,300
Yeah.

1008
00:43:03,300 --> 00:43:04,740
Yeah, I mean, we're underground.

1009
00:43:04,740 --> 00:43:06,660
So if there's light coming through,

1010
00:43:06,660 --> 00:43:10,500
there obviously is like some kind of chamber

1011
00:43:10,500 --> 00:43:12,820
on the other side of this for light

1012
00:43:12,820 --> 00:43:13,940
to be coming through, right?

1013
00:43:14,740 --> 00:43:15,380
Makes sense.

1014
00:43:17,780 --> 00:43:20,180
So I don't think there's electricity

1015
00:43:20,180 --> 00:43:21,140
down here.

1016
00:43:21,140 --> 00:43:23,140
Only candles and torches.

1017
00:43:23,140 --> 00:43:24,180
That's really what the cult's

1018
00:43:24,180 --> 00:43:26,260
been trying to do is invent electricity.

1019
00:43:26,260 --> 00:43:27,620
They're trying to wire the whole place.

1020
00:43:27,620 --> 00:43:28,980
They've got a big Tesla coil

1021
00:43:28,980 --> 00:43:29,780
on the other side.

1022
00:43:31,380 --> 00:43:33,700
I just think like, if someone took

1023
00:43:33,700 --> 00:43:34,900
the time to have torches lit

1024
00:43:34,900 --> 00:43:35,940
on the other side of this,

1025
00:43:35,940 --> 00:43:37,140
it means there's something going on

1026
00:43:37,140 --> 00:43:38,019
over there.

1027
00:43:38,019 --> 00:43:39,940
Well, I mean, like magic can also

1028
00:43:39,940 --> 00:43:40,820
be a source of light.

1029
00:43:41,220 --> 00:43:44,100
But also like a giant fire pit

1030
00:43:44,100 --> 00:43:44,820
that they're going to use

1031
00:43:44,820 --> 00:43:45,940
to sacrifice people

1032
00:43:45,940 --> 00:43:48,740
and thusly maybe bring forth a dragon.

1033
00:43:48,740 --> 00:43:49,220
Let's dig.

1034
00:43:50,500 --> 00:43:51,220
Okay.

1035
00:43:51,220 --> 00:43:52,500
Let's move some boulders around.

1036
00:43:53,300 --> 00:43:55,620
Everybody give me a strength check.

1037
00:43:56,340 --> 00:43:57,620
There's more of a basis

1038
00:43:57,620 --> 00:43:58,820
for how long it takes.

1039
00:43:59,460 --> 00:44:00,820
It is a 17.

1040
00:44:01,380 --> 00:44:01,940
11.

1041
00:44:02,980 --> 00:44:03,480
7.

1042
00:44:04,340 --> 00:44:05,620
A lot of the path is clear.

1043
00:44:06,740 --> 00:44:07,860
It takes you a little while

1044
00:44:07,860 --> 00:44:09,380
to clear some of the heavier boulders

1045
00:44:09,380 --> 00:44:11,780
to allow for the giant creatures to pass.

1046
00:44:12,579 --> 00:44:14,019
Lara and Flint, you would be able

1047
00:44:14,019 --> 00:44:16,099
to pass through quite unhindered

1048
00:44:17,380 --> 00:44:18,900
via you and your winter reform

1049
00:44:18,900 --> 00:44:21,300
could probably clear through pretty quickly.

1050
00:44:22,099 --> 00:44:24,660
But Guacamole and Donnie

1051
00:44:24,660 --> 00:44:25,860
might have a little trouble.

1052
00:44:25,860 --> 00:44:27,619
So you take some time just to make sure

1053
00:44:27,619 --> 00:44:30,500
that nothing collapses back in on any of you.

1054
00:44:31,619 --> 00:44:32,900
Who's leading the pack here?

1055
00:44:33,780 --> 00:44:34,280
I am.

1056
00:44:34,980 --> 00:44:38,500
Flint, as you and one other person

1057
00:44:39,219 --> 00:44:39,940
Probably me.

1058
00:44:39,940 --> 00:44:41,860
I'm like the next smallest person, right?

1059
00:44:41,860 --> 00:44:42,360
Okay.

1060
00:44:42,900 --> 00:44:45,699
Flint, as you and Nulara move the last boulder,

1061
00:44:47,059 --> 00:44:49,219
you realize that the light source

1062
00:44:50,019 --> 00:44:55,699
is coming from a monstrous building of sorts.

1063
00:44:56,900 --> 00:45:00,340
A light shooting up into the sky.

1064
00:45:01,619 --> 00:45:06,500
And you find yourself in a wrecked pit

1065
00:45:07,300 --> 00:45:12,099
inside the caldera of the well of the dragon.

1066
00:45:13,699 --> 00:45:16,340
Amid the wreckage and the rubble

1067
00:45:16,340 --> 00:45:17,699
that you see before you,

1068
00:45:18,659 --> 00:45:20,659
you see fragmented bones

1069
00:45:20,659 --> 00:45:23,460
now that your eyes begin to adjust.

1070
00:45:25,460 --> 00:45:27,219
And you look up and you see

1071
00:45:28,980 --> 00:45:31,460
this mind-numbing structure.

1072
00:45:31,460 --> 00:45:34,260
All of you begin to exit out into this.

1073
00:45:34,340 --> 00:45:36,740
You see dragons soaring overhead.

1074
00:45:38,900 --> 00:45:43,700
And it looks like it is tangled with bones and rock

1075
00:45:44,580 --> 00:45:47,780
and is blasted up out of the volcano itself.

1076
00:45:51,540 --> 00:45:54,820
The stone and bones look like they've been

1077
00:45:54,820 --> 00:45:58,500
imbued with the dark magic of the nine hells.

1078
00:45:59,060 --> 00:46:03,060
And what you can presume as the temple of Tiamat

1079
00:46:03,059 --> 00:46:06,340
with all of its chaotic angles jutting out.

1080
00:46:07,219 --> 00:46:11,219
Within that snarl of cornices and soaring angulation,

1081
00:46:11,219 --> 00:46:14,980
you make out five asymmetric towers

1082
00:46:15,619 --> 00:46:17,860
topped by twisted steeples.

1083
00:46:19,779 --> 00:46:23,380
Screams and roars come from over the edges

1084
00:46:23,380 --> 00:46:26,179
as another blare of the dracorn sounds.

1085
00:46:27,139 --> 00:46:31,139
And you are looking at the temple of Tiamat.

1086
00:46:33,059 --> 00:46:53,139
Some of the music in today's episode is by Kavin McLeod of incompetech.filmmusic.io

1087
00:46:53,139 --> 00:46:56,420
and Scott Buckley at scottbuckley.com.au.

1088
00:46:56,980 --> 00:47:00,019
Sound effects can be found at boomlibrary.com

1089
00:47:00,019 --> 00:47:02,259
and at sirenscape.com.

1090
00:47:02,900 --> 00:47:04,820
We already did a little half recap there,

1091
00:47:04,820 --> 00:47:06,580
but everybody's comfortable in their knowledge

1092
00:47:06,580 --> 00:47:09,380
of what's happening at present around them.

1093
00:47:09,380 --> 00:47:09,940
I think so.

1094
00:47:10,500 --> 00:47:12,180
Murder, death, and chaos.

1095
00:47:12,180 --> 00:47:12,740
Got it.

1096
00:47:12,740 --> 00:47:13,380
Yes.

1097
00:47:13,380 --> 00:47:14,420
Just a good summary.

1098
00:47:14,420 --> 00:47:15,460
It's just a Tuesday.

1099
00:47:16,260 --> 00:47:16,500
Right.

1100
00:47:17,940 --> 00:47:19,220
You start running.

1101
00:47:19,220 --> 00:47:23,300
So, Nularaaaa, you'll have to disengage.

1102
00:47:23,300 --> 00:47:25,620
Not that it really matters because you're...

1103
00:47:26,820 --> 00:47:28,100
Impervious and everything.

1104
00:47:28,100 --> 00:47:28,600
Amazing.

1105
00:47:29,220 --> 00:47:29,940
Donnie would have to disengage.

1106
00:47:29,940 --> 00:47:34,019
You literally took half my HP with the one magic user.

1107
00:47:34,019 --> 00:47:36,019
So don't act like I haven't gotten hurt.

1108
00:47:37,539 --> 00:47:39,059
You hurt her many ways.

1109
00:47:40,179 --> 00:47:41,380
Partially, emotionally.

1110
00:47:41,380 --> 00:47:43,220
I didn't take half your HP.

1111
00:47:43,220 --> 00:47:47,059
I took 20 of it and then the others you can get back at some point.

1112
00:47:47,059 --> 00:47:47,860
Yes, yes.

1113
00:47:47,860 --> 00:47:49,220
Fair, fair, fair.

1114
00:47:49,220 --> 00:47:53,619
Because we want to keep going in the direction where Buddy told us.

1115
00:47:54,179 --> 00:47:57,139
Yeah, where the sacrifice room was, right?

1116
00:47:57,139 --> 00:47:58,019
That is an idea.

1117
00:47:58,019 --> 00:47:58,420
Yep.

1118
00:47:58,420 --> 00:47:58,920
Okay.

1119
00:47:59,320 --> 00:47:59,880
Uh, you...

1120
00:48:00,599 --> 00:48:01,960
Are we running in the right direction?

1121
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:05,240
I don't know.

1122
00:48:05,240 --> 00:48:06,760
I only have the math in front of me.

1123
00:48:09,079 --> 00:48:10,119
You know as much as you guys.

1124
00:48:10,119 --> 00:48:10,619
Okay.

1125
00:48:11,240 --> 00:48:16,440
I always feel like whenever we have to stop, Russ gets like bad ideas as to what to do to us.

1126
00:48:17,400 --> 00:48:21,000
That gives me an extra second to think, which is maybe good.

1127
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:22,440
See? That's what I was talking about.

1128
00:48:23,720 --> 00:48:25,079
They both appear...

1129
00:48:25,319 --> 00:48:25,819
They...

1130
00:48:27,559 --> 00:48:30,599
They both appear to just be human dudes.

1131
00:48:30,599 --> 00:48:31,639
I like the Italian.

1132
00:48:31,639 --> 00:48:32,759
They are both just to be...

1133
00:48:36,759 --> 00:48:39,400
Nothing good ever comes with a glowing green orb.

1134
00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:39,900
Never.

1135
00:48:40,759 --> 00:48:41,960
No, no it doesn't.

1136
00:48:42,599 --> 00:48:44,119
So is every fight I have to do it?

1137
00:48:44,759 --> 00:48:45,799
Uh, no, sorry.

1138
00:48:45,799 --> 00:48:50,360
It still is because you had said moist previously, but you haven't said it again.

1139
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:51,000
So no.

1140
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:52,039
Yeah, yeah, it's still moist.

1141
00:48:52,679 --> 00:48:55,480
What I'm saying is you haven't turned it off, is what I'm saying.

1142
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:55,960
Okay, perfect.

1143
00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:57,320
Yeah, that's what I was wondering.

1144
00:48:57,320 --> 00:48:57,960
Moist.

1145
00:48:57,960 --> 00:48:59,800
His sword's always turned on.

1146
00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:00,679
It's always turned on.

1147
00:49:00,679 --> 00:49:01,400
Always.

1148
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:02,599
Until he turns it off.

1149
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,119
Until he takes a real hard look at himself in the mirror.

1150
00:49:09,559 --> 00:49:12,679
Because nothing's more of a sword boner killer.

1151
00:49:13,639 --> 00:49:14,360
I...

1152
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,199
No, I'll just wait to do that.

1153
00:49:16,199 --> 00:49:18,599
That's a good idea.

1154
00:49:18,599 --> 00:49:19,960
Wait, until he throws the thing?

1155
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:20,519
Okay.

1156
00:49:20,519 --> 00:49:23,079
I don't want to delay my turn until he has his action.

1157
00:49:23,079 --> 00:49:24,599
Yeah, makes sense.

1158
00:49:24,599 --> 00:49:29,880
The rumbles of the Drakorn are the only thing that catch your hear...

1159
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:30,679
Heard.

1160
00:49:30,679 --> 00:49:31,719
Hears.

1161
00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:32,840
Hears.

1162
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:33,639
Ha.

1163
00:49:33,639 --> 00:49:35,960
Dumbgeons and Dragons is a Dumb Dragons production.
