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

2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:06,240
So what's the game plan here? We got to get out of here.

3
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:15,439
I think the game plan is we leave alive and we try not to, I don't know, kill anybody else

4
00:00:15,439 --> 00:00:17,280
that doesn't deserve being killed.

5
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:22,400
The rat runs out and sees you running towards it and it begins making gestures.

6
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,280
But as you barrel through the door, who do they see?

7
00:00:26,080 --> 00:00:36,240
They see the rat. They also see a very tall, strong, humanoid male, like six foot four,

8
00:00:36,799 --> 00:00:44,960
has kind of like long, dark, scraggly kind of hair, and his skin is really quite gray and

9
00:00:44,960 --> 00:00:47,280
mottled. Who are you?

10
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:55,120
Well, I've had many names. I've been called Artemis or Morn or Granger or Lee.

11
00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:00,480
Okay. Yeah. No, that's great. What's your name today? We've got some shit happening

12
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,800
behind us. You may have to carry him.

13
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:03,440
Who?

14
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:04,320
Our nude dude.

15
00:01:04,320 --> 00:01:06,240
Nude dude? Is he naked too?

16
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:08,719
No.

17
00:01:08,719 --> 00:01:15,920
You peel out down the main road, out of Blackpool, which wraps around a black lake.

18
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:22,320
An explosion goes. You turn and look back and the city erupts and then gets

19
00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:24,159
sucked back into the ground.

20
00:01:24,159 --> 00:01:25,759
That kind of takes care of that.

21
00:01:25,759 --> 00:01:29,840
I mean, we still got to tell people though, this is, this is a thing that's happening.

22
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,039
Yeah. No, no, totally. But I mean, yeah.

23
00:01:33,599 --> 00:01:37,840
Welcome to Dumbgeons and Dragons. We're a D&D fifth edition actual play podcast,

24
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,920
and I'm your Dungeon Master Russ More. And with me today is Carla Maxted.

25
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,799
That is me playing a new character you met two weeks ago.

26
00:01:47,679 --> 00:01:50,159
You still don't know his name. Mystery.

27
00:01:50,159 --> 00:01:50,799
Beefy boy.

28
00:01:51,759 --> 00:01:53,679
Beefy boy, let's say.

29
00:01:54,159 --> 00:01:54,959
For now.

30
00:01:54,959 --> 00:01:56,799
Also with me, Amy More.

31
00:01:57,519 --> 00:02:00,879
That is I. This is I. It is me.

32
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,399
Yes. And I'm playing the Amastasia.

33
00:02:04,399 --> 00:02:05,759
And Tom Laird.

34
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,240
C'est moi. And I am playing Flint Firebeard.

35
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,000
Ooh la la, très bien, Tom.

36
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:14,000
Merci, merci.

37
00:02:15,439 --> 00:02:15,840
Oui, oui.

38
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:18,740
Beaucoup.

39
00:02:19,379 --> 00:02:21,379
Très bien.

40
00:02:26,100 --> 00:02:26,900
What are you throwing?

41
00:02:29,540 --> 00:02:30,180
These are just the random words?

42
00:02:30,180 --> 00:02:32,580
Like a grand jeté? Are you dancing?

43
00:02:32,580 --> 00:02:34,100
Oh, maybe. Yeah, grand jeté.

44
00:02:34,100 --> 00:02:34,820
Oh, there you go.

45
00:02:34,820 --> 00:02:38,260
Yeah. These are just the random words that are coming back from junior high French

46
00:02:38,260 --> 00:02:41,379
that are, yeah, copied a lot in that class.

47
00:02:41,939 --> 00:02:42,420
Yeah.

48
00:02:42,980 --> 00:02:44,740
Thanks, Michael Swanberg, wherever you are.

49
00:02:45,379 --> 00:02:46,340
Oh, that's sweet.

50
00:02:46,340 --> 00:02:47,780
Yeah. Yeah.

51
00:02:47,780 --> 00:02:53,460
Anyways, where you probably won't be copying off your homework is over on Patreon.

52
00:02:53,460 --> 00:02:55,699
Patreon.com slash dumb dragon cast.

53
00:02:55,699 --> 00:03:00,180
Where when you're a patron, you get access to a whole bunch of really awesome content.

54
00:03:00,980 --> 00:03:03,379
As well, you get an episode dedicated to you.

55
00:03:03,379 --> 00:03:06,259
Like today's patron, Ryan Cushman.

56
00:03:07,379 --> 00:03:08,099
Thanks, Ryan.

57
00:03:09,460 --> 00:03:10,180
Thank you, Ryan.

58
00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:13,780
And now, I feel like Russ one-upped all our thank yous.

59
00:03:13,780 --> 00:03:15,460
I know, it was so sincere.

60
00:03:15,460 --> 00:03:16,740
It was so sweet.

61
00:03:16,740 --> 00:03:17,540
Thank you, Ryan.

62
00:03:19,219 --> 00:03:20,580
Let's all do sincere thank yous.

63
00:03:22,580 --> 00:03:23,300
Thank you, Ryan.

64
00:03:24,500 --> 00:03:25,620
Ryan, thank you.

65
00:03:26,819 --> 00:03:30,900
Ryan, I just want to say, I think from everybody, thank you.

66
00:03:38,340 --> 00:03:39,540
Fuck it, let's play D&D.

67
00:03:45,460 --> 00:03:48,500
Oh, previously.

68
00:03:48,500 --> 00:03:49,300
Yeah, it's your turn.

69
00:03:56,900 --> 00:03:59,540
We find our heroes, Flint, Thea, and Beefy Boy.

70
00:04:00,100 --> 00:04:02,100
And Guac, maybe.

71
00:04:02,100 --> 00:04:03,780
Yeah, Guac's still there for now.

72
00:04:04,420 --> 00:04:04,980
Donnie.

73
00:04:04,980 --> 00:04:05,460
Donnie.

74
00:04:05,460 --> 00:04:06,420
Donnie.

75
00:04:06,420 --> 00:04:07,620
Clip Clop and Tiny.

76
00:04:08,180 --> 00:04:09,379
Battle Weary.

77
00:04:09,379 --> 00:04:11,700
Oh, don't forget about the rat, Perseus.

78
00:04:11,700 --> 00:04:13,140
Rat Perseus.

79
00:04:13,860 --> 00:04:17,379
Okay, I can remember the name of your rat that was said once.

80
00:04:19,220 --> 00:04:23,300
And I, I don't know if I'm impressed or disappointed with myself.

81
00:04:26,500 --> 00:04:27,620
Choose impressed.

82
00:04:27,620 --> 00:04:28,900
Yeah, I'm leaning towards impressed.

83
00:04:28,900 --> 00:04:29,699
Okay, yeah.

84
00:04:31,220 --> 00:04:32,020
Call it a win.

85
00:04:32,020 --> 00:04:33,139
All of the characters.

86
00:04:33,139 --> 00:04:36,259
We've gone from two up to seven.

87
00:04:37,379 --> 00:04:38,980
Seven characters overnight here.

88
00:04:39,620 --> 00:04:42,340
That now, now I have to come up with voices for them, probably.

89
00:04:43,139 --> 00:04:44,099
That was a rat sound.

90
00:04:44,899 --> 00:04:45,779
Is your rat talk?

91
00:04:46,899 --> 00:04:47,620
I don't think so.

92
00:04:47,620 --> 00:04:49,219
Did you see Ratatouille, Russ?

93
00:04:50,339 --> 00:04:51,620
Sounds like Patton Oswalt.

94
00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:54,979
All right, I'll work on my Patton Oswalt for next time.

95
00:04:54,979 --> 00:04:58,579
We'll have to figure out a way to get Perseus to talk in this episode.

96
00:04:58,579 --> 00:05:01,620
And then, Patton Oswalt next time.

97
00:05:02,579 --> 00:05:05,060
Not the actual person, just me pretending to be Patton Oswalt.

98
00:05:05,060 --> 00:05:06,579
Oh, but maybe Patton Oswalt.

99
00:05:06,579 --> 00:05:09,379
But I mean, maybe he'll hear this and he'll want to guest star as Perseus the Rat.

100
00:05:09,379 --> 00:05:11,300
Tweet this to Patton Oswalt.

101
00:05:12,259 --> 00:05:18,819
If you're tired of being a love interest on Will and Grace,

102
00:05:18,819 --> 00:05:20,420
come and join our podcast, Patton.

103
00:05:21,620 --> 00:05:22,900
You could be a rat again.

104
00:05:24,580 --> 00:05:25,080
What?

105
00:05:25,780 --> 00:05:26,500
Big sell.

106
00:05:26,500 --> 00:05:27,220
Big sell.

107
00:05:27,220 --> 00:05:27,939
Time stamp it.

108
00:05:27,939 --> 00:05:29,060
Send it to him.

109
00:05:29,060 --> 00:05:31,300
Did we mention no pet?

110
00:05:32,019 --> 00:05:34,580
Yes, this is pro bono.

111
00:05:34,580 --> 00:05:37,540
This is for the good, from the good of your heart.

112
00:05:38,420 --> 00:05:40,100
Because you love D&D so darn much.

113
00:05:40,100 --> 00:05:40,900
I love D&D.

114
00:05:41,700 --> 00:05:44,180
I don't know if you do, but who doesn't?

115
00:05:44,180 --> 00:05:46,340
No, he just seems like a super fun guy.

116
00:05:46,340 --> 00:05:49,780
Yeah, and he does that really good voiceover work on the Goldbergs.

117
00:05:49,780 --> 00:05:51,220
Sold, right?

118
00:05:51,220 --> 00:05:52,740
I'm convinced he should do it.

119
00:05:52,740 --> 00:05:53,220
Me too.

120
00:05:53,860 --> 00:05:55,620
All right, well, episode over.

121
00:05:55,620 --> 00:05:56,900
Send it to Patton Oswalt.

122
00:05:56,900 --> 00:05:57,540
Perfect.

123
00:05:57,540 --> 00:05:59,220
Don't follow this up with anything.

124
00:05:59,220 --> 00:06:04,020
Okay, well, that aside, you're all aboard the wagon.

125
00:06:04,020 --> 00:06:06,580
And you're way back to where?

126
00:06:06,580 --> 00:06:07,140
Waterdeep.

127
00:06:08,020 --> 00:06:08,980
It's always Waterdeep.

128
00:06:08,980 --> 00:06:09,780
Always Waterdeep.

129
00:06:09,780 --> 00:06:10,580
Always Waterdeep.

130
00:06:11,460 --> 00:06:12,259
And we...

131
00:06:12,259 --> 00:06:13,780
How long have we been on the road for, Russ?

132
00:06:14,580 --> 00:06:15,379
Years, it seems like.

133
00:06:15,379 --> 00:06:17,939
Okay, Gwak is no longer with us.

134
00:06:17,939 --> 00:06:20,580
She didn't die, she's just now a Jade serpentine now.

135
00:06:20,580 --> 00:06:24,100
Oh, I thought you were talking, like, I mean, probably, it's probably, you know,

136
00:06:24,100 --> 00:06:24,980
she's probably back.

137
00:06:25,780 --> 00:06:25,939
Yeah.

138
00:06:25,939 --> 00:06:30,340
It's been a, yeah, like half a day from where we previously left off.

139
00:06:30,340 --> 00:06:31,379
Everyone just wanted her to fly.

140
00:06:31,379 --> 00:06:33,700
Everything's still fresh, probably not even half a day,

141
00:06:33,700 --> 00:06:36,020
because some of this conversation that we're going to have is going to be like,

142
00:06:36,020 --> 00:06:37,300
oh, probably want to have that right after.

143
00:06:37,300 --> 00:06:39,060
It'd be weird if we just didn't talk.

144
00:06:39,060 --> 00:06:39,939
Four days later.

145
00:06:39,939 --> 00:06:41,139
Four days later.

146
00:06:41,139 --> 00:06:44,180
So, you got a name yet?

147
00:06:45,139 --> 00:06:47,460
No, but yeah, it's probably soon thereafter.

148
00:06:47,460 --> 00:06:50,259
So, your call, whether you keep her out or not.

149
00:06:52,580 --> 00:06:54,100
I'm just going to have a nap.

150
00:06:54,100 --> 00:06:55,780
Oh, sorry, nobody was jumping in.

151
00:06:55,780 --> 00:06:57,060
And I always talk over Carla.

152
00:06:57,060 --> 00:07:00,740
Go ahead with your Donnie nap.

153
00:07:00,740 --> 00:07:03,699
Yeah, well, I'm just going to break the tension here.

154
00:07:04,340 --> 00:07:05,939
I'm just going to have a little sleep.

155
00:07:05,939 --> 00:07:08,100
I've got about six cows inside of me.

156
00:07:09,139 --> 00:07:11,939
Was there no small voice inside you that told you to stop eating?

157
00:07:13,060 --> 00:07:17,139
Yeah, but then I was like, cow, I don't care what you think.

158
00:07:17,139 --> 00:07:18,740
I'm sorry, can you talk with the cows?

159
00:07:19,699 --> 00:07:23,300
Well, after a while, it kind of sounds like they're talking.

160
00:07:25,220 --> 00:07:26,579
It's like a fever dream.

161
00:07:26,579 --> 00:07:28,740
Oh, then when like the meat gets a hold of you.

162
00:07:28,740 --> 00:07:29,779
Yeah, yeah.

163
00:07:29,779 --> 00:07:30,899
Yeah, yeah, I see.

164
00:07:30,899 --> 00:07:33,220
Yeah, we're going for this whole continuity thing,

165
00:07:33,220 --> 00:07:35,220
because we mentioned it in the other storyline.

166
00:07:35,939 --> 00:07:37,300
That's right, just so much meat.

167
00:07:38,819 --> 00:07:40,819
We're not vegetarians, if you can't tell.

168
00:07:42,579 --> 00:07:43,860
Oh, he's out already.

169
00:07:43,860 --> 00:07:48,180
I turn towards our new friend and I say, sorry about him.

170
00:07:49,620 --> 00:07:50,660
Oh, that's all right.

171
00:07:50,660 --> 00:07:53,220
I know how it can be when you eat a lot of meat.

172
00:07:54,019 --> 00:07:54,819
It's tiring.

173
00:07:54,819 --> 00:07:57,459
He's experienced a loss recently,

174
00:07:57,459 --> 00:07:59,939
and I think he's turned to food for comfort.

175
00:08:00,659 --> 00:08:02,980
Oh, well, I'm sorry to hear that.

176
00:08:03,939 --> 00:08:06,340
Is anybody hurt?

177
00:08:07,939 --> 00:08:10,259
I can help with that a little, if you need me to.

178
00:08:11,220 --> 00:08:13,140
I mean, I'm a little bit banged up.

179
00:08:13,140 --> 00:08:14,180
It's nothing serious,

180
00:08:14,180 --> 00:08:16,900
but if you're doling out some healing, I'll take it.

181
00:08:16,900 --> 00:08:17,700
Yeah, ditto.

182
00:08:18,340 --> 00:08:22,819
I guess, how about, no offense to you,

183
00:08:22,819 --> 00:08:24,020
but how about the horse?

184
00:08:24,020 --> 00:08:27,300
Can I heal the horse that's still hurt?

185
00:08:28,100 --> 00:08:28,900
Yes, please.

186
00:08:28,900 --> 00:08:30,660
Then see what I've got left.

187
00:08:30,660 --> 00:08:33,379
I feel like it's harder to find a good vet on the road.

188
00:08:34,180 --> 00:08:36,100
You guys seem pretty tough.

189
00:08:36,100 --> 00:08:37,460
I mean, we come from hardy stock.

190
00:08:40,420 --> 00:08:41,620
Tiny got healed, right?

191
00:08:42,259 --> 00:08:43,300
Mostly.

192
00:08:43,300 --> 00:08:46,899
Yeah, Tiny had nine damage still.

193
00:08:46,899 --> 00:08:48,259
Clipclop had six.

194
00:08:48,259 --> 00:08:51,379
Clipclop has the lower surplus, though.

195
00:08:54,420 --> 00:08:56,180
So maybe I will.

196
00:08:57,540 --> 00:08:59,300
Can we pull the wagon to the side

197
00:08:59,299 --> 00:09:02,339
so that I can, actually, I can probably do it a different way.

198
00:09:03,379 --> 00:09:05,459
This healing business.

199
00:09:05,459 --> 00:09:06,179
Yeah, I can.

200
00:09:07,699 --> 00:09:15,139
Okay, I'm going to heal Clipclop for six points.

201
00:09:16,099 --> 00:09:16,599
Perfect.

202
00:09:17,620 --> 00:09:19,379
So Clipclop is healed.

203
00:09:19,379 --> 00:09:22,099
Describe how it looks when you heal Clipclop, please.

204
00:09:22,819 --> 00:09:26,259
So I concentrate and cast a spell,

205
00:09:26,259 --> 00:09:33,059
and then you see me sort of slump slightly.

206
00:09:34,100 --> 00:09:34,740
Are you okay?

207
00:09:36,659 --> 00:09:42,500
Yeah, yeah, I'm, you know, just sometimes takes a little bit out of you.

208
00:09:43,700 --> 00:09:49,059
And then I'm going to try to heal Tiny up the rest of the way, too,

209
00:09:49,059 --> 00:09:50,419
because how much was there?

210
00:09:50,419 --> 00:09:50,919
Nine.

211
00:09:52,580 --> 00:09:54,179
Why did I roll a d20?

212
00:09:54,179 --> 00:09:54,740
No one knows.

213
00:09:56,819 --> 00:09:57,779
He's critically healed.

214
00:10:00,179 --> 00:10:02,580
I'll heal Tiny for five.

215
00:10:03,860 --> 00:10:04,819
Thank you so much.

216
00:10:05,379 --> 00:10:08,259
Oh, it's, it makes me happy.

217
00:10:08,259 --> 00:10:11,779
It's the only way I made my friend, Perseus.

218
00:10:11,779 --> 00:10:17,059
He was really badly injured, and I healed him, and now he's my best friend.

219
00:10:17,620 --> 00:10:21,059
And Perseus like comes out of my coat and sits up on my shoulder,

220
00:10:21,059 --> 00:10:23,220
and it's just like being just so cute.

221
00:10:23,220 --> 00:10:28,500
Just really very like embodies like a real Patton Oswald kind of quality.

222
00:10:29,139 --> 00:10:30,580
That's very endearing.

223
00:10:30,580 --> 00:10:31,540
Very endearing.

224
00:10:32,580 --> 00:10:35,620
Well, we know the name of your rat, but what's your name?

225
00:10:37,300 --> 00:10:43,700
Yeah, so it's, I guess I don't know anymore.

226
00:10:46,420 --> 00:10:49,779
I've had a lot of names, and I don't really feel like I'm

227
00:10:49,779 --> 00:10:52,180
any of those people entirely anymore.

228
00:10:52,180 --> 00:11:06,340
So Artemis, Morn, Granger, Lee, I've been all of those, but I think I'm different now.

229
00:11:06,340 --> 00:11:09,220
So I'm not entirely any of those.

230
00:11:09,220 --> 00:11:10,420
I can't claim any of those.

231
00:11:10,420 --> 00:11:13,460
So I guess I'm on the lookout for my new name.

232
00:11:14,020 --> 00:11:15,700
Yeah, is this going to be a thing where just like

233
00:11:16,500 --> 00:11:20,420
your name will present itself to you and then you'll be like, yep, that's the one.

234
00:11:20,420 --> 00:11:21,940
Or would you like us to name you?

235
00:11:23,060 --> 00:11:25,940
Well, I mean, we're probably going to be on the road for a while.

236
00:11:25,940 --> 00:11:27,460
Why don't we spitball some ideas?

237
00:11:27,460 --> 00:11:28,180
What do you guys got?

238
00:11:29,700 --> 00:11:33,780
How do you feel about Sparthasius?

239
00:11:35,300 --> 00:11:39,460
Well, I don't know how to spell it.

240
00:11:39,460 --> 00:11:42,340
Sounds powerful, but hard to yell.

241
00:11:42,340 --> 00:11:43,220
Yeah, yeah.

242
00:11:43,220 --> 00:11:48,820
It's like Sparthasius, get to the wagon, it's hard.

243
00:11:48,900 --> 00:11:53,220
Maybe something short, something concise.

244
00:11:53,220 --> 00:11:57,060
One or two syllables, you know, like packs of punch, kind of like I do.

245
00:11:57,060 --> 00:11:59,700
Something strong, something with bill.

246
00:12:00,660 --> 00:12:01,060
All right.

247
00:12:03,060 --> 00:12:05,460
You know, I'm not really good at naming.

248
00:12:06,500 --> 00:12:07,700
Flynn, why don't you give it a go?

249
00:12:07,700 --> 00:12:12,100
I'm just going to, you cured our horses.

250
00:12:12,100 --> 00:12:14,900
The least I can do is take care of the rest of everybody else.

251
00:12:14,900 --> 00:12:17,300
And I mass cure wounds.

252
00:12:17,300 --> 00:12:18,100
Oh, boy.

253
00:12:18,100 --> 00:12:18,660
Yeah, I don't know.

254
00:12:18,660 --> 00:12:21,220
I mean, I'm not super great with names either.

255
00:12:21,220 --> 00:12:27,380
Let's maybe like Owen, is Owen a good name?

256
00:12:28,900 --> 00:12:32,660
Well, I guess I don't know your guys' name.

257
00:12:32,660 --> 00:12:34,260
Sounds like your name's Flint.

258
00:12:34,260 --> 00:12:34,580
Yep.

259
00:12:34,580 --> 00:12:35,140
Yeah, that's me.

260
00:12:35,140 --> 00:12:35,940
Flint Firebeard.

261
00:12:36,820 --> 00:12:37,700
And you?

262
00:12:38,580 --> 00:12:38,980
Thea.

263
00:12:40,420 --> 00:12:41,220
Amastasia.

264
00:12:41,220 --> 00:12:43,300
Oh, damn it.

265
00:12:45,460 --> 00:12:46,820
Thea Amastasia, damn it.

266
00:12:46,820 --> 00:12:47,540
Yep, that's her name.

267
00:12:48,340 --> 00:12:50,820
From the back of the wagon, you hear Bursa.

268
00:12:53,060 --> 00:12:54,820
Oh, God, you knew the names of the cows.

269
00:12:54,820 --> 00:12:56,100
It'll only hurt for a second.

270
00:12:57,140 --> 00:12:59,140
Sorry, everyone can heal 26.

271
00:12:59,940 --> 00:13:00,660
I will do that.

272
00:13:01,460 --> 00:13:04,820
So, Flint and Thea, I think I've heard of you.

273
00:13:06,500 --> 00:13:06,820
Maybe.

274
00:13:07,620 --> 00:13:09,140
We wreck shit wherever we go.

275
00:13:09,780 --> 00:13:10,740
We did a few things.

276
00:13:12,260 --> 00:13:15,700
Well, I think the world owes you a great debt.

277
00:13:15,700 --> 00:13:17,220
So, thank you for what you've done.

278
00:13:18,100 --> 00:13:20,980
You mentioned having a bunch of names.

279
00:13:20,980 --> 00:13:22,980
How old are you?

280
00:13:22,980 --> 00:13:24,420
That's a really personal question, Flint.

281
00:13:24,420 --> 00:13:24,980
Oh, my God.

282
00:13:25,780 --> 00:13:29,140
Well, I mean, usually people don't have multiple names

283
00:13:29,140 --> 00:13:32,740
that they feel they don't have a part of anymore.

284
00:13:32,740 --> 00:13:36,100
Well, I mean, I guess the age thing kind of ties into that.

285
00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:38,020
Am I 62?

286
00:13:38,020 --> 00:13:38,900
Am I 35?

287
00:13:38,900 --> 00:13:39,780
Am I 17?

288
00:13:39,780 --> 00:13:40,500
Am I 2?

289
00:13:42,580 --> 00:13:44,020
I'm all of those things.

290
00:13:44,740 --> 00:13:47,860
Well, what was the highest when you said 62?

291
00:13:51,220 --> 00:13:52,340
So, are you 62?

292
00:13:52,980 --> 00:13:54,500
Well, in some ways.

293
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:54,819
Okay.

294
00:13:58,179 --> 00:13:58,899
Where are you from?

295
00:13:59,699 --> 00:14:02,899
Well, I mean, I'm from water deep,

296
00:14:02,899 --> 00:14:05,539
but also somewhere along the Sword Coast

297
00:14:05,539 --> 00:14:08,579
and deep in the woods and up in the mountains of Baldrack.

298
00:14:08,579 --> 00:14:11,299
I mean, I'm kind of from everywhere in a way.

299
00:14:12,260 --> 00:14:14,340
You are a very interesting fellow.

300
00:14:14,980 --> 00:14:19,140
Oh, well, I mean, seems like a crazy thing

301
00:14:19,140 --> 00:14:21,300
for one of the decimators of dragons to say.

302
00:14:21,860 --> 00:14:24,500
But I mean, we've always just been like,

303
00:14:24,500 --> 00:14:25,780
I've always just been Flint.

304
00:14:26,340 --> 00:14:27,620
She's always just been Thea.

305
00:14:28,260 --> 00:14:30,660
You sound like you've been multiple people

306
00:14:30,660 --> 00:14:34,100
in multiple locations and there's a lot going on there.

307
00:14:34,100 --> 00:14:36,740
And I'm like 125 years old or something like that.

308
00:14:38,180 --> 00:14:40,260
Can't remember how old I am.

309
00:14:40,259 --> 00:14:41,700
Perseus climbs down onto your lap there

310
00:14:41,700 --> 00:14:43,460
and kind of looks up at you like just shrugs,

311
00:14:43,460 --> 00:14:45,299
like they ain't getting it.

312
00:14:46,100 --> 00:14:48,019
And then climbs back up into your pocket.

313
00:14:48,019 --> 00:14:50,659
Oh, thank you, Perseus.

314
00:14:50,659 --> 00:14:55,220
I think maybe I'm being a little bit unclear.

315
00:14:56,340 --> 00:14:58,019
Just a skosh.

316
00:14:58,019 --> 00:15:00,980
It's, I don't, I don't get a,

317
00:15:01,779 --> 00:15:03,139
I haven't had a lot of chances

318
00:15:03,139 --> 00:15:06,819
to just sit and chat with folks

319
00:15:06,819 --> 00:15:08,259
in the last couple of years.

320
00:15:08,259 --> 00:15:11,059
Oh, I have a less personal question.

321
00:15:11,779 --> 00:15:12,899
Oh, that'd be great.

322
00:15:12,899 --> 00:15:15,379
So you said that you were locked up

323
00:15:15,379 --> 00:15:18,100
because you were not willing to help

324
00:15:18,100 --> 00:15:21,139
with the big old orcas undead plan.

325
00:15:22,179 --> 00:15:22,500
Yes.

326
00:15:23,860 --> 00:15:25,700
Were you sought out to help?

327
00:15:27,460 --> 00:15:30,019
No, no, I, you know,

328
00:15:30,819 --> 00:15:33,779
I'd been somewhere else up in the mountains

329
00:15:33,779 --> 00:15:36,419
and then I left that place

330
00:15:36,420 --> 00:15:39,940
and I was just searching for a life

331
00:15:39,940 --> 00:15:41,460
or friends or something.

332
00:15:42,100 --> 00:15:47,700
And I came into that cursed town

333
00:15:47,700 --> 00:15:51,460
and they wanted me to join them.

334
00:15:51,460 --> 00:15:54,100
They were creating undead and orcas

335
00:15:54,100 --> 00:15:55,780
and, you know, end of the world

336
00:15:55,780 --> 00:15:57,300
and all of these horrible things.

337
00:15:57,300 --> 00:15:59,140
And I wanted no part of it.

338
00:15:59,140 --> 00:16:00,580
And then they locked me up.

339
00:16:00,580 --> 00:16:01,700
Why wouldn't they just turn you

340
00:16:01,700 --> 00:16:02,740
into one of the undead?

341
00:16:02,740 --> 00:16:10,500
Well, I mean, you said you weren't going

342
00:16:10,500 --> 00:16:12,019
to ask any more personal questions.

343
00:16:12,820 --> 00:16:14,820
It's kind of a personal question in that.

344
00:16:18,820 --> 00:16:25,779
I guess I am a little undead myself.

345
00:16:25,779 --> 00:16:27,220
Just a little undead?

346
00:16:27,220 --> 00:16:29,139
Just a scooch of undead.

347
00:16:29,139 --> 00:16:31,220
Flint, you see coming up ahead of you

348
00:16:31,220 --> 00:16:33,139
on the path, there's a herd of goats

349
00:16:33,139 --> 00:16:36,500
that's covered the pathway,

350
00:16:36,500 --> 00:16:38,100
the road in front of you.

351
00:16:39,379 --> 00:16:40,420
I lean back and I go,

352
00:16:40,420 --> 00:16:41,460
Johnny, you hungry?

353
00:16:44,580 --> 00:16:45,779
So just a little undead.

354
00:16:47,700 --> 00:16:50,740
I've never, I really hope this is,

355
00:16:51,460 --> 00:16:54,100
I'm very sorry for my ignorance.

356
00:16:54,100 --> 00:16:59,860
I've never met a partially undead person before.

357
00:17:01,540 --> 00:17:06,420
Yeah, I don't, I might be the only one of me.

358
00:17:07,860 --> 00:17:10,339
I hope in many ways.

359
00:17:10,339 --> 00:17:11,620
I am the only one of me.

360
00:17:11,620 --> 00:17:12,660
That sounds terribly lonely.

361
00:17:14,500 --> 00:17:14,900
It is.

362
00:17:14,900 --> 00:17:16,019
I mean, not anymore.

363
00:17:16,019 --> 00:17:17,460
I have Perseus now.

364
00:17:17,460 --> 00:17:18,900
Perseus, he seems great.

365
00:17:18,900 --> 00:17:21,140
And he's great.

366
00:17:21,140 --> 00:17:23,460
And I've met you nice folks.

367
00:17:23,460 --> 00:17:24,660
And that's nice.

368
00:17:25,700 --> 00:17:29,140
But it's been a hard couple years.

369
00:17:30,020 --> 00:17:35,540
I haven't really known how to be a whole human

370
00:17:35,540 --> 00:17:36,340
for a couple years.

371
00:17:36,340 --> 00:17:38,580
Oh gosh, I've got so many more personal questions.

372
00:17:41,300 --> 00:17:43,300
The wagon has come to a full stop

373
00:17:43,300 --> 00:17:45,060
in front of this herd of goats

374
00:17:45,060 --> 00:17:47,220
that is not moving currently.

375
00:17:48,900 --> 00:17:50,660
Can I just say, when you first said herd of goats,

376
00:17:50,660 --> 00:17:51,940
I thought you said herd of ghosts

377
00:17:51,940 --> 00:17:53,380
and I was like, oh, how wonderful.

378
00:17:54,900 --> 00:17:57,380
And we stopped for them just out of respect.

379
00:17:57,380 --> 00:17:58,660
Like we could go through them,

380
00:17:58,660 --> 00:17:59,779
but I mean, come on.

381
00:17:59,779 --> 00:18:00,500
Yeah.

382
00:18:00,500 --> 00:18:02,420
The sign says ghost crossing.

383
00:18:02,420 --> 00:18:03,460
Goats.

384
00:18:03,460 --> 00:18:04,180
Can I get out

385
00:18:04,180 --> 00:18:06,340
and try to animal handle these goats too?

386
00:18:06,340 --> 00:18:06,900
Hi-yah.

387
00:18:07,940 --> 00:18:08,500
You may.

388
00:18:08,500 --> 00:18:09,300
Get along little doggies.

389
00:18:09,300 --> 00:18:11,300
He is so fucking into animal handling.

390
00:18:11,300 --> 00:18:11,779
Totally.

391
00:18:12,580 --> 00:18:14,180
It's really turning over a new leaf.

392
00:18:14,180 --> 00:18:16,100
That is a 22.

393
00:18:17,060 --> 00:18:20,100
Okay, describe to me how you handle these animals.

394
00:18:20,100 --> 00:18:22,019
I hop out and I make like a

395
00:18:24,180 --> 00:18:26,019
sound and I start clapping my hands

396
00:18:26,019 --> 00:18:28,900
at the goats nearest, like, you know,

397
00:18:28,900 --> 00:18:31,220
to move them in this direction that I want them to.

398
00:18:32,339 --> 00:18:33,299
And they do that thing.

399
00:18:34,099 --> 00:18:34,900
They do.

400
00:18:34,900 --> 00:18:36,500
One of them turns back at you

401
00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:40,259
and just lets out this hideous scream.

402
00:18:42,180 --> 00:18:43,619
Like how goats scream like people.

403
00:18:45,619 --> 00:18:46,019
Okay.

404
00:18:46,019 --> 00:18:46,980
I yell back at it.

405
00:18:51,139 --> 00:18:52,740
This could go on for quite a while.

406
00:18:52,740 --> 00:18:53,779
Trot off.

407
00:18:53,779 --> 00:18:56,980
Takes a moment to clear, but pathway is clear again.

408
00:18:56,980 --> 00:18:58,259
I jump on the wagon.

409
00:18:59,220 --> 00:19:01,859
I give a gentle hi-yah to the horses.

410
00:19:01,859 --> 00:19:03,859
Clint, as you kind of turn and look back,

411
00:19:03,859 --> 00:19:06,660
there is a goat sitting beside you, looking at you.

412
00:19:10,180 --> 00:19:11,779
Well, hey there, little partner.

413
00:19:15,539 --> 00:19:16,980
I expected Flint to look over and be like,

414
00:19:18,259 --> 00:19:19,220
fuck is your problem.

415
00:19:21,700 --> 00:19:22,740
Coming along for the ride.

416
00:19:24,740 --> 00:19:26,740
I've started the cart like we are going.

417
00:19:26,740 --> 00:19:27,859
It's just staring at you.

418
00:19:29,220 --> 00:19:30,420
I lean forward and I say,

419
00:19:30,420 --> 00:19:33,220
goat buddy, we've got a dragon in the back.

420
00:19:34,019 --> 00:19:35,539
We have a Wormling in the back.

421
00:19:35,539 --> 00:19:37,859
Looks to the back and then moves closer to Flint.

422
00:19:38,660 --> 00:19:40,899
Can I roll a perception check

423
00:19:40,899 --> 00:19:43,940
to see if there's anything unusual about this goat?

424
00:19:43,940 --> 00:19:47,299
Other than the fact that it, like, you know,

425
00:19:47,299 --> 00:19:48,500
climbed up into the...

426
00:19:48,500 --> 00:19:50,259
It's clearly imprinted on Flint.

427
00:19:51,220 --> 00:19:53,859
Are you, like, you're actually not just,

428
00:19:53,859 --> 00:19:55,940
like, glancing at this, you're actually looking at it?

429
00:19:56,819 --> 00:20:00,500
Probably investigation or nature or animal handling.

430
00:20:01,059 --> 00:20:02,900
Any of those would probably be better than perception.

431
00:20:04,019 --> 00:20:06,500
Okay, let's say investigation.

432
00:20:06,500 --> 00:20:07,539
That is a 19.

433
00:20:08,099 --> 00:20:11,299
You give this goat a thorough look over

434
00:20:12,180 --> 00:20:15,859
and it appears to just be a regular old goat.

435
00:20:15,859 --> 00:20:19,299
As you do so, it shifts closer to Flint.

436
00:20:20,339 --> 00:20:22,900
It's probably almost up in his lap at this point

437
00:20:22,900 --> 00:20:25,379
as you are looking him over.

438
00:20:26,259 --> 00:20:27,220
What are you going to name it?

439
00:20:27,859 --> 00:20:29,140
What's a good goat name?

440
00:20:30,660 --> 00:20:31,220
Boots.

441
00:20:32,900 --> 00:20:34,740
I mean, you guys seemed fond of Bill.

442
00:20:35,379 --> 00:20:36,900
Like a billy goat.

443
00:20:37,619 --> 00:20:39,619
Oh, yeah, I think we got to go with that.

444
00:20:39,619 --> 00:20:40,980
Wait, was that your inspiration

445
00:20:40,980 --> 00:20:42,900
for choosing the name the first time?

446
00:20:42,900 --> 00:20:45,619
No, I haven't seen a goat in ages.

447
00:20:48,180 --> 00:20:49,779
Sorry, Bill's off the table now.

448
00:20:50,819 --> 00:20:51,539
My new friend.

449
00:20:51,539 --> 00:20:53,140
Okay, no, I'll accept that.

450
00:20:53,779 --> 00:20:54,900
I'll accept that.

451
00:20:54,900 --> 00:20:56,740
Bill is the perfect name for this goat.

452
00:20:57,700 --> 00:21:00,900
So, Flint, until something happens,

453
00:21:00,900 --> 00:21:05,940
please add a goat companion to your character sheet named Bill.

454
00:21:07,299 --> 00:21:07,859
Intuit.

455
00:21:07,859 --> 00:21:09,940
Sometimes Russ just gives you a goat.

456
00:21:10,980 --> 00:21:11,779
You know what they say?

457
00:21:12,819 --> 00:21:13,779
Is that in extras?

458
00:21:13,779 --> 00:21:14,980
Where do I put that?

459
00:21:14,980 --> 00:21:17,059
Put it wherever you feel it fits.

460
00:21:17,619 --> 00:21:20,259
It's probably extras or notes.

461
00:21:21,619 --> 00:21:22,099
Perfect.

462
00:21:24,099 --> 00:21:25,139
Okay, well.

463
00:21:26,099 --> 00:21:27,700
You guys are heading to Waterdeep?

464
00:21:27,700 --> 00:21:28,819
Yeah, yeah.

465
00:21:29,460 --> 00:21:33,940
Is that probably got a report to some kind of authority

466
00:21:33,940 --> 00:21:37,940
about this whole orcas, zombie horde, abyss?

467
00:21:37,940 --> 00:21:43,139
Oh, yeah, the arcane brotherhood?

468
00:21:45,139 --> 00:21:46,659
No one corrected me, so yeah.

469
00:21:47,859 --> 00:21:49,619
That's gotta be the one.

470
00:21:50,259 --> 00:21:52,980
I mean, we got multiple people we could tell about this,

471
00:21:52,980 --> 00:21:56,899
Guilden and I, or all sorts of things we could tell.

472
00:21:57,700 --> 00:21:59,700
Which may or may not be any of your business,

473
00:21:59,700 --> 00:22:02,019
because we don't really know you that well.

474
00:22:02,659 --> 00:22:03,859
That's fair, that's fair.

475
00:22:04,819 --> 00:22:07,619
Do you mind if I tag along with you for a while, though?

476
00:22:09,539 --> 00:22:10,099
No, not at all.

477
00:22:10,099 --> 00:22:11,139
No, yeah.

478
00:22:11,139 --> 00:22:13,139
I can be pretty handy in a fight.

479
00:22:13,139 --> 00:22:15,379
I didn't get much of a chance to show you.

480
00:22:15,380 --> 00:22:18,260
Maybe when we pass a town we could stop

481
00:22:18,260 --> 00:22:20,500
and I could pick up a few weapons.

482
00:22:20,500 --> 00:22:23,780
I am a little better with a weapon than I am

483
00:22:23,780 --> 00:22:26,740
just with the old fists, you know?

484
00:22:26,740 --> 00:22:31,140
Well, yeah, you demolish that one skeleton with that sword,

485
00:22:31,140 --> 00:22:32,260
so I believe it.

486
00:22:32,980 --> 00:22:36,100
Speaking of which, thank you for letting me use this.

487
00:22:37,060 --> 00:22:38,660
Hopefully we'll come across a place soon

488
00:22:38,660 --> 00:22:40,580
I can just get my own weapons.

489
00:22:40,580 --> 00:22:41,780
I should give this back to you.

490
00:22:42,820 --> 00:22:44,740
And I hand him back.

491
00:22:45,860 --> 00:22:47,860
What I think is just a normal sword.

492
00:22:47,860 --> 00:22:50,580
Can I put the normal-looking sword away and say,

493
00:22:50,580 --> 00:22:53,540
okay, but if we come across something in the meantime

494
00:22:53,540 --> 00:22:55,860
and you need it again, don't hesitate to ask.

495
00:22:56,660 --> 00:22:57,700
I appreciate it.

496
00:22:57,700 --> 00:22:58,200
Thanks.

497
00:22:58,900 --> 00:23:01,380
How far is Blackpool from Waterdeep?

498
00:23:01,380 --> 00:23:02,820
Probably about three days.

499
00:23:03,940 --> 00:23:04,500
Okay.

500
00:23:04,500 --> 00:23:05,000
Yep.

501
00:23:05,940 --> 00:23:08,660
Well, got a goat, so things are looking up.

502
00:23:10,500 --> 00:23:12,020
So what kind of goat is this?

503
00:23:13,540 --> 00:23:14,420
It's a goat.

504
00:23:14,420 --> 00:23:16,420
Is it like a Nubian?

505
00:23:16,420 --> 00:23:20,100
Is it like a dwarf?

506
00:23:20,100 --> 00:23:20,420
Fainting.

507
00:23:20,420 --> 00:23:21,620
Is it a fainting goat?

508
00:23:21,620 --> 00:23:22,340
A shaggy.

509
00:23:23,220 --> 00:23:24,820
What kind of goat do you want, Tom?

510
00:23:24,820 --> 00:23:26,100
Ears or no ears, Tom?

511
00:23:27,220 --> 00:23:28,580
Definitely ears.

512
00:23:28,580 --> 00:23:29,940
So it's an eared goat.

513
00:23:34,100 --> 00:23:35,539
You know, when you picture a goat,

514
00:23:36,900 --> 00:23:38,019
that's the goat that it is.

515
00:23:38,980 --> 00:23:42,019
It's white, it's got a beard, it's got ears.

516
00:23:42,019 --> 00:23:43,060
Is it a boy goat?

517
00:23:44,019 --> 00:23:45,139
It's name's Billy.

518
00:23:45,700 --> 00:23:47,619
That doesn't necessarily make sense.

519
00:23:47,619 --> 00:23:49,619
I did say it was a boy.

520
00:23:49,619 --> 00:23:52,339
Oh god, that dialogue's gonna get smelly, you guys.

521
00:23:52,899 --> 00:23:53,779
We're in the open air.

522
00:23:53,779 --> 00:23:54,419
Doesn't matter.

523
00:23:55,779 --> 00:23:56,279
Okay.

524
00:23:56,980 --> 00:23:58,500
Thea knows, somehow.

525
00:24:00,579 --> 00:24:00,980
Don't ask her how.

526
00:24:00,980 --> 00:24:02,099
Because of all her farm experience.

527
00:24:02,099 --> 00:24:03,299
That's right.

528
00:24:03,299 --> 00:24:05,619
She always got sent to the farm.

529
00:24:05,619 --> 00:24:07,539
She interned a goat farm.

530
00:24:08,419 --> 00:24:09,779
See, I would have thought like

531
00:24:09,779 --> 00:24:12,740
sent to one of those like scared straight ranches.

532
00:24:12,980 --> 00:24:16,980
She probably got sent to like one of those schools

533
00:24:16,980 --> 00:24:22,259
for proper children, like a finishing school.

534
00:24:22,259 --> 00:24:23,539
She wasn't fancy enough.

535
00:24:25,059 --> 00:24:27,380
You travel for the better part of the day

536
00:24:27,380 --> 00:24:29,539
and don't come across any more goats

537
00:24:29,539 --> 00:24:32,180
or livestock off in the distance,

538
00:24:32,180 --> 00:24:34,579
but no real challenges.

539
00:24:34,579 --> 00:24:35,539
No goat roadblock.

540
00:24:35,539 --> 00:24:37,220
No other goats join the party?

541
00:24:38,339 --> 00:24:39,620
No, just the one.

542
00:24:40,580 --> 00:24:45,380
It's getting kind of late and about the time

543
00:24:45,380 --> 00:24:48,340
when you would normally be setting up to camp

544
00:24:48,900 --> 00:24:52,100
or discuss how you want to get through the night.

545
00:24:52,100 --> 00:24:53,220
Usually I get through the night

546
00:24:53,220 --> 00:24:55,860
by rocking back and forth and silently screaming,

547
00:24:55,860 --> 00:25:00,820
but I think maybe we should probably just make camp.

548
00:25:03,540 --> 00:25:05,620
Hey, I think there's a clearing up ahead.

549
00:25:05,620 --> 00:25:07,380
Maybe this is a good place for us to stop?

550
00:25:08,020 --> 00:25:08,420
Yeah, sure.

551
00:25:08,420 --> 00:25:09,060
That sounds good.

552
00:25:09,059 --> 00:25:11,700
I'll get working on the firewood.

553
00:25:12,419 --> 00:25:13,700
I mean, I got this axe after all.

554
00:25:13,700 --> 00:25:13,940
True.

555
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:16,019
Just let Donnie know when you're ready.

556
00:25:16,019 --> 00:25:18,099
He's got to start pulling his weight here.

557
00:25:18,099 --> 00:25:21,059
That was no pun intended because he did eat like seven cows.

558
00:25:22,099 --> 00:25:22,819
Six cows.

559
00:25:24,099 --> 00:25:25,539
You can still help light a fire.

560
00:25:26,099 --> 00:25:26,819
Yep.

561
00:25:26,819 --> 00:25:29,059
I mean, quite easily for him.

562
00:25:29,059 --> 00:25:29,700
Sure.

563
00:25:29,700 --> 00:25:30,099
Got it.

564
00:25:30,819 --> 00:25:31,139
Done.

565
00:25:34,259 --> 00:25:38,179
Do you guys sleep rough or you want me to set up a tent?

566
00:25:39,140 --> 00:25:40,980
We're usually under the stars kind of people.

567
00:25:42,259 --> 00:25:42,580
Okay.

568
00:25:42,580 --> 00:25:43,539
They do snuggle.

569
00:25:45,060 --> 00:25:45,700
If it's cold.

570
00:25:45,700 --> 00:25:46,660
That's nice.

571
00:25:46,660 --> 00:25:47,460
Yep.

572
00:25:47,460 --> 00:25:48,340
And like you don't like things.

573
00:25:48,340 --> 00:25:49,779
Of course I was having bad dreams.

574
00:25:50,900 --> 00:25:53,060
Nice thing about having friends.

575
00:25:54,100 --> 00:25:58,019
Okay, Flint, you go off to start hacking down some wood.

576
00:25:58,019 --> 00:26:02,820
As you're doing so, an arrow zips by your head

577
00:26:04,500 --> 00:26:05,700
and impales in a tree.

578
00:26:06,660 --> 00:26:10,420
Am I able to determine where said arrow came from?

579
00:26:10,980 --> 00:26:13,380
You go into your mind palace.

580
00:26:13,380 --> 00:26:14,740
Beautiful mind this thing.

581
00:26:14,740 --> 00:26:17,700
Trajectories, numbers, equations.

582
00:26:17,700 --> 00:26:22,980
Some sort of like, you know, arc and distance and speed and velocity.

583
00:26:22,980 --> 00:26:27,380
All of those things happen and you can narrow it down.

584
00:26:27,380 --> 00:26:33,460
It cut through kind of a clearing and follow the direction of the arrow

585
00:26:33,460 --> 00:26:37,779
and it comes out into an open clearing within this forested area

586
00:26:37,779 --> 00:26:38,980
that you've pulled off beside.

587
00:26:39,539 --> 00:26:42,500
And you hear yelling coming from one side.

588
00:26:43,539 --> 00:26:45,220
You see an arrow zip by.

589
00:26:46,900 --> 00:26:49,940
How far away am I from my peeps?

590
00:26:50,579 --> 00:26:52,819
I'm going to say you got in, you know,

591
00:26:52,819 --> 00:26:56,500
as far as you probably were thinking that you needed to go to get the good wood.

592
00:26:57,700 --> 00:26:57,940
Okay.

593
00:26:58,740 --> 00:27:00,180
So you were in there.

594
00:27:00,180 --> 00:27:01,620
Got to go deep to get the good wood.

595
00:27:01,620 --> 00:27:03,300
Got to get that deep wood.

596
00:27:03,300 --> 00:27:05,300
I always say.

597
00:27:05,300 --> 00:27:06,500
Uh, yep.

598
00:27:07,860 --> 00:27:13,140
So, I mean, it's a, it would be, you were in probably 15 or 20 minutes in

599
00:27:13,140 --> 00:27:14,100
chopping up stuff.

600
00:27:14,100 --> 00:27:15,460
So depending on how far you went.

601
00:27:17,060 --> 00:27:19,860
I mean, so probably out of like shouting distance.

602
00:27:19,860 --> 00:27:20,100
Yes.

603
00:27:20,820 --> 00:27:21,320
Okay.

604
00:27:22,900 --> 00:27:28,900
I'm going to, I'm going to call out, say, uh, I don't, I don't mean to cause a fuss,

605
00:27:28,900 --> 00:27:31,460
but you better stop shooting at me here pretty soon.

606
00:27:31,460 --> 00:27:33,539
An arrow zips by your head again.

607
00:27:33,539 --> 00:27:35,779
Individual who shot the arrow yells out.

608
00:27:35,779 --> 00:27:36,740
Don't trust them.

609
00:27:37,460 --> 00:27:38,019
Who's them?

610
00:27:38,019 --> 00:27:38,660
I'm by myself.

611
00:27:38,660 --> 00:27:39,380
Don't trust me.

612
00:27:39,380 --> 00:27:40,340
Don't trust you.

613
00:27:40,340 --> 00:27:41,299
Don't, don't trust me.

614
00:27:48,900 --> 00:27:49,860
It's the middle time.

615
00:27:50,660 --> 00:27:51,299
Hey, middle.

616
00:27:51,299 --> 00:27:52,980
Stuck in the middle with you guys.

617
00:27:53,860 --> 00:27:55,140
My favorite people.

618
00:27:55,140 --> 00:27:55,940
And we're back.

619
00:27:56,980 --> 00:27:58,900
After such a long break.

620
00:27:58,900 --> 00:28:00,100
Such a break.

621
00:28:00,100 --> 00:28:03,940
We had some great fill in episodes though, from the end of time and other bothers and

622
00:28:03,940 --> 00:28:04,900
the broadswords.

623
00:28:04,900 --> 00:28:07,060
And if you haven't listened to them yet, go listen to those.

624
00:28:07,060 --> 00:28:09,140
Cause they're equally as entertaining.

625
00:28:09,140 --> 00:28:10,660
So lovely, lovely people.

626
00:28:10,660 --> 00:28:11,940
And they're just lovely people.

627
00:28:11,940 --> 00:28:12,660
The best people.

628
00:28:13,860 --> 00:28:16,500
But after you do that and after you listen to this episode,

629
00:28:16,500 --> 00:28:18,100
you should go listen to our new show.

630
00:28:18,100 --> 00:28:19,460
Yeah, we have a new podcast.

631
00:28:19,460 --> 00:28:20,260
It just came out.

632
00:28:20,260 --> 00:28:20,820
It just came out.

633
00:28:20,820 --> 00:28:21,940
It's called Facing Fate.

634
00:28:21,940 --> 00:28:25,860
I was going to make a joke about one of our various other side podcasts,

635
00:28:25,860 --> 00:28:26,980
but no, this one's legit.

636
00:28:27,620 --> 00:28:29,059
This one isn't a joke where we say,

637
00:28:29,700 --> 00:28:30,900
let's make that a podcast.

638
00:28:30,900 --> 00:28:35,140
We actually made another podcast and it's good.

639
00:28:35,140 --> 00:28:37,779
And it's an actual play still.

640
00:28:37,779 --> 00:28:39,539
So we don't change it up too much there.

641
00:28:40,339 --> 00:28:45,460
But the hook is it's a horror sci-fi thriller.

642
00:28:46,579 --> 00:28:47,460
Yeah.

643
00:28:47,460 --> 00:28:49,140
But does it involve any hooks?

644
00:28:50,980 --> 00:28:52,740
I mean, there's hooks in the background.

645
00:28:53,860 --> 00:28:56,180
It's not prevalent, but you see them in kind of the back scene.

646
00:28:57,700 --> 00:28:59,220
I see them in this audio medium.

647
00:29:00,180 --> 00:29:02,740
I took a long time really setting the scene.

648
00:29:04,259 --> 00:29:06,660
There's going to be a new edit and it's just going to be like,

649
00:29:06,660 --> 00:29:08,579
you look around the room and see hooks,

650
00:29:08,579 --> 00:29:10,819
and then it'll be the rest of the normal episode.

651
00:29:14,819 --> 00:29:15,940
But no, Facing Fate.

652
00:29:15,940 --> 00:29:17,700
Season one is called Lunacorp.

653
00:29:17,700 --> 00:29:20,339
Each season is going to be a different story.

654
00:29:20,339 --> 00:29:23,380
And right now is a great time to hop on

655
00:29:23,380 --> 00:29:25,860
because it's 10 episodes and it just started this week.

656
00:29:26,580 --> 00:29:28,020
So we've linked it down in the description

657
00:29:28,020 --> 00:29:29,300
where it's been linked for a while,

658
00:29:29,300 --> 00:29:30,740
but we've been getting ready for it.

659
00:29:30,740 --> 00:29:31,620
And now it's here.

660
00:29:31,620 --> 00:29:32,180
It's ready.

661
00:29:33,220 --> 00:29:35,380
And the feedback so far has just been wonderful.

662
00:29:35,380 --> 00:29:37,380
So thank you if you have listened to it already

663
00:29:37,380 --> 00:29:39,540
and told us that you really like it.

664
00:29:40,260 --> 00:29:42,020
So that's it everybody.

665
00:29:42,020 --> 00:29:43,300
Please go listen to Facing Fate.

666
00:29:43,300 --> 00:29:44,660
Notice the hooks in the background.

667
00:29:45,940 --> 00:29:49,700
And really just tweet Tom every time you see a hook.

668
00:29:50,260 --> 00:29:50,820
Sure.

669
00:29:50,820 --> 00:29:51,700
Yeah, please do.

670
00:29:52,500 --> 00:29:54,900
Now we'll get you back to this episode

671
00:29:54,900 --> 00:29:56,420
where we have a whole bunch of fun.

672
00:29:57,540 --> 00:29:57,860
Okay.

673
00:29:58,500 --> 00:29:58,980
Bye now.

674
00:29:59,620 --> 00:30:00,019
Bye now.

675
00:30:00,019 --> 00:30:00,340
Bye.

676
00:30:00,900 --> 00:30:01,380
Bye-bye.

677
00:30:04,500 --> 00:30:06,420
You definitely see the directions of the arrows

678
00:30:06,420 --> 00:30:07,140
are coming now.

679
00:30:07,860 --> 00:30:09,860
And you see just the tops of heads

680
00:30:09,860 --> 00:30:14,259
poking up above some piles of wood and stone

681
00:30:14,259 --> 00:30:16,259
on either side of this clearing.

682
00:30:16,259 --> 00:30:19,220
There's two people that you can see.

683
00:30:19,220 --> 00:30:22,500
And I don't mean harm to anyone.

684
00:30:22,500 --> 00:30:23,860
I'm just grabbing firewood.

685
00:30:23,860 --> 00:30:26,500
But again, you got to stop shooting at me

686
00:30:26,500 --> 00:30:27,620
or we're going to have problems.

687
00:30:27,620 --> 00:30:29,940
Well, what if he shoots at you again?

688
00:30:29,940 --> 00:30:32,340
Maybe you could take care of him.

689
00:30:33,380 --> 00:30:33,700
Who?

690
00:30:33,700 --> 00:30:34,900
Who are you talking about?

691
00:30:34,900 --> 00:30:37,380
That person over there.

692
00:30:37,380 --> 00:30:39,540
I can't stand up otherwise they'll shoot me.

693
00:30:39,540 --> 00:30:40,980
Oh, you guys are shooting at each other.

694
00:30:40,980 --> 00:30:42,500
Yeah, it's a doppelganger.

695
00:30:42,500 --> 00:30:43,140
I'm not.

696
00:30:43,140 --> 00:30:44,420
You're the doppelganger.

697
00:30:44,980 --> 00:30:45,620
Oh, okay.

698
00:30:46,420 --> 00:30:46,980
Tell you what.

699
00:30:46,980 --> 00:30:49,620
Let's both put our bows down

700
00:30:50,900 --> 00:30:53,300
and I'll be the judge of who the doppelganger is.

701
00:30:53,299 --> 00:30:55,700
The voice from the far side calls out and says,

702
00:30:55,700 --> 00:30:57,619
how do I know that he hasn't hired you

703
00:30:57,619 --> 00:30:59,460
to come tell me to put my bow down

704
00:30:59,460 --> 00:31:01,940
so he could shoot me because he's the doppelganger?

705
00:31:02,659 --> 00:31:04,659
My price is exorbitantly high.

706
00:31:04,659 --> 00:31:05,619
He can't afford me.

707
00:31:05,619 --> 00:31:08,180
Oh, okay.

708
00:31:08,180 --> 00:31:10,259
Well, you tell him to do it first then.

709
00:31:10,259 --> 00:31:10,500
All right.

710
00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:12,819
Let's both do it on the count of three.

711
00:31:12,819 --> 00:31:13,220
Okay.

712
00:31:14,500 --> 00:31:14,819
Okay.

713
00:31:16,419 --> 00:31:18,339
I want to see hands up in the air.

714
00:31:18,980 --> 00:31:19,619
No bows.

715
00:31:21,940 --> 00:31:22,099
One.

716
00:31:22,100 --> 00:31:23,780
Make a persuasion check as you're counting.

717
00:31:24,580 --> 00:31:24,900
Two.

718
00:31:26,740 --> 00:31:27,220
19.

719
00:31:28,100 --> 00:31:28,420
Three.

720
00:31:28,420 --> 00:31:31,220
On three you see the far side.

721
00:31:31,220 --> 00:31:32,420
You see the hands go up.

722
00:31:32,420 --> 00:31:33,140
It says fine.

723
00:31:33,940 --> 00:31:38,900
You see the one raise his bow hand that's nearer to you.

724
00:31:38,900 --> 00:31:41,060
You can't quite see make him out from where you are

725
00:31:41,060 --> 00:31:42,180
but you see his hand go up.

726
00:31:42,180 --> 00:31:43,700
Now I just see one hand from you.

727
00:31:43,700 --> 00:31:44,980
I want to see both hands.

728
00:31:45,540 --> 00:31:47,620
If I get shot, I'm coming after you.

729
00:31:48,180 --> 00:31:50,580
Well, if you're the only two people shooting at each other

730
00:31:50,579 --> 00:31:52,579
and you both have your hands in the air,

731
00:31:52,579 --> 00:31:53,699
no one's going to be shooting.

732
00:31:53,699 --> 00:31:58,019
Maybe he hired you and thought that he's trying to trick me.

733
00:31:58,019 --> 00:32:00,259
No one can afford my price.

734
00:32:01,059 --> 00:32:02,339
See his other hand go up.

735
00:32:03,779 --> 00:32:04,819
Okay, there we go.

736
00:32:04,819 --> 00:32:06,740
Off to a great start here, guys.

737
00:32:06,740 --> 00:32:10,579
Now let's stand up slowly so I can get my peepers on you.

738
00:32:10,579 --> 00:32:16,659
As they begin to stand up, you see two exact similar dwarfs

739
00:32:16,660 --> 00:32:24,500
dressed in travelers clothes, medium length brownish beards,

740
00:32:25,460 --> 00:32:27,460
just glaring at each other,

741
00:32:27,460 --> 00:32:30,180
looking over towards you and glaring at each other.

742
00:32:30,180 --> 00:32:30,680
Okay.

743
00:32:31,380 --> 00:32:32,180
Back at the camp.

744
00:32:33,220 --> 00:32:34,340
What are you two up to?

745
00:32:35,460 --> 00:32:37,060
Four up to, five up to.

746
00:32:37,060 --> 00:32:38,180
I'm probably getting rashes out.

747
00:32:38,180 --> 00:32:40,180
I mean the horses are just horsing around.

748
00:32:42,580 --> 00:32:45,860
Who usually like cooks and things.

749
00:32:46,660 --> 00:32:48,019
On these camp out to yours.

750
00:32:49,380 --> 00:32:50,580
We usually take turns.

751
00:32:50,580 --> 00:32:57,620
We have a lot of pre, a lot of dried meats, well, aged cheeses.

752
00:32:57,620 --> 00:33:00,420
There's not a whole lot of cooking that happens, to be honest.

753
00:33:00,420 --> 00:33:01,620
I mean, every once in a while,

754
00:33:01,620 --> 00:33:04,660
Flint will, you know, catch a rabbit or something like that.

755
00:33:04,660 --> 00:33:08,019
I can't, I can't watch when he does it,

756
00:33:08,019 --> 00:33:09,779
but after it's cooked up,

757
00:33:09,779 --> 00:33:13,060
I can usually stomach a piece if I need to.

758
00:33:13,619 --> 00:33:16,740
Speaking of, do you, does it normally take so long to get wood?

759
00:33:16,740 --> 00:33:18,579
I mean, he did have that very nice axe.

760
00:33:18,579 --> 00:33:23,139
Maybe he likes to test it out or kind of enjoy some alone time out there.

761
00:33:23,139 --> 00:33:25,299
Well, you know what they say about a man in his wood.

762
00:33:26,419 --> 00:33:27,379
It's his best friend?

763
00:33:27,379 --> 00:33:31,299
Yeah, and he likes to enjoy it alone in the forest.

764
00:33:35,779 --> 00:33:37,460
They're never coming to check on you, Tom.

765
00:33:38,019 --> 00:33:39,940
No, that is what they say though, so that's fair.

766
00:33:39,940 --> 00:33:40,899
That got away from me.

767
00:33:41,540 --> 00:33:44,820
Actually, no, knowing what I know about Flint,

768
00:33:44,820 --> 00:33:49,620
I feel like he probably got into his own head a little bit,

769
00:33:49,620 --> 00:33:53,460
went kind of chop happy and could be wandering the forest.

770
00:33:54,420 --> 00:33:56,259
We should probably go check on him.

771
00:33:56,259 --> 00:33:57,300
It has been a while.

772
00:33:58,019 --> 00:34:00,660
Okay, yeah, let's go see how he's doing out there.

773
00:34:01,220 --> 00:34:02,740
Maybe he needs help carrying back some wood.

774
00:34:02,740 --> 00:34:03,780
Maybe he does, yeah.

775
00:34:03,780 --> 00:34:06,340
Donnie, can you stay and protect the horses?

776
00:34:06,900 --> 00:34:07,940
Yeah, you got it.

777
00:34:08,340 --> 00:34:09,860
Don't nap.

778
00:34:09,860 --> 00:34:12,340
I will watch with a keen eye.

779
00:34:12,340 --> 00:34:12,840
Two eyes.

780
00:34:14,740 --> 00:34:18,579
With a keen eyes over these horses.

781
00:34:19,300 --> 00:34:21,940
We go in through the same way we saw Flint leave.

782
00:34:22,659 --> 00:34:25,220
Make a survival check.

783
00:34:25,220 --> 00:34:26,019
Oh, God, no.

784
00:34:27,700 --> 00:34:28,659
Oh, no, it's okay.

785
00:34:29,300 --> 00:34:30,179
It's a plus four.

786
00:34:31,539 --> 00:34:32,179
17.

787
00:34:33,220 --> 00:34:34,500
15 for me.

788
00:34:34,500 --> 00:34:38,019
Both of you find and follow the path.

789
00:34:38,019 --> 00:34:38,659
No problem.

790
00:34:38,659 --> 00:34:40,900
We'll cut back to Flint before you find him though.

791
00:34:42,179 --> 00:34:44,340
You are standing before two dwarves

792
00:34:44,340 --> 00:34:47,940
that look from what you can tell exactly alike.

793
00:34:49,219 --> 00:34:50,260
They're glaring.

794
00:34:50,260 --> 00:34:51,780
Okay, so we've got a,

795
00:34:52,500 --> 00:34:54,820
you were saying the doppelganger situation here.

796
00:34:54,820 --> 00:34:56,340
They both at the exact same time.

797
00:34:56,340 --> 00:34:59,460
Yes, he is the doppelganger.

798
00:34:59,460 --> 00:35:01,139
No, no, I understand the premise here.

799
00:35:01,139 --> 00:35:02,579
You think he's a doppelganger.

800
00:35:02,579 --> 00:35:03,940
He thinks you were the doppelganger.

801
00:35:04,019 --> 00:35:04,659
I got this.

802
00:35:05,860 --> 00:35:07,220
Where are you guys from?

803
00:35:07,220 --> 00:35:08,340
What clan?

804
00:35:08,340 --> 00:35:09,539
Wait, one second.

805
00:35:09,539 --> 00:35:10,179
Hold on here.

806
00:35:11,139 --> 00:35:14,019
I go over to the one on the left.

807
00:35:15,380 --> 00:35:17,619
I say, tell me the name of your clan.

808
00:35:17,619 --> 00:35:18,579
Whisper it in my ear.

809
00:35:19,300 --> 00:35:20,420
He looks to you.

810
00:35:20,420 --> 00:35:23,619
He says, from the Rockrax clan.

811
00:35:24,980 --> 00:35:26,099
All right, all right.

812
00:35:26,099 --> 00:35:27,860
Do I know of a Rockrax clan?

813
00:35:27,860 --> 00:35:28,420
Is that a thing?

814
00:35:29,460 --> 00:35:29,780
Yeah.

815
00:35:29,780 --> 00:35:31,220
I mean, I know that like,

816
00:35:31,220 --> 00:35:32,579
is it a famous Dwarven clan?

817
00:35:33,139 --> 00:35:34,099
Make a history check.

818
00:35:34,099 --> 00:35:35,940
Oh, I get advantage on history checks.

819
00:35:36,739 --> 00:35:38,340
But only when it's related to stone.

820
00:35:38,340 --> 00:35:39,299
Otherwise, I just get it.

821
00:35:39,299 --> 00:35:40,019
It's Rockrax.

822
00:35:40,819 --> 00:35:43,619
I mean, yeah, but is that really related to stone?

823
00:35:43,619 --> 00:35:44,579
Maybe they work with rock.

824
00:35:44,579 --> 00:35:46,579
But I do have a plus nine, so that's a 26.

825
00:35:47,219 --> 00:35:49,059
Yeah, they're not super famous,

826
00:35:49,059 --> 00:35:52,259
but you've definitely heard of them in the histories.

827
00:35:52,259 --> 00:35:53,860
Not every clan can be famous.

828
00:35:53,860 --> 00:35:56,019
No, no, that's it.

829
00:35:56,019 --> 00:35:57,860
I just wanted to know if it was a thing I'd heard of

830
00:35:57,860 --> 00:35:59,460
or if it was like completely made up.

831
00:35:59,460 --> 00:36:01,059
Yep, it's a thing.

832
00:36:01,059 --> 00:36:02,420
All right, you stay here.

833
00:36:02,420 --> 00:36:04,659
And I shuffle over to the other dwarf and I say,

834
00:36:04,659 --> 00:36:07,779
OK, you tell me which clan you're from.

835
00:36:07,779 --> 00:36:09,059
He looks at you and says,

836
00:36:09,619 --> 00:36:10,980
like he's trying to piece it together.

837
00:36:12,340 --> 00:36:13,139
The Rockrax.

838
00:36:13,699 --> 00:36:14,659
OK, Rockrax.

839
00:36:14,659 --> 00:36:16,019
OK, OK, OK.

840
00:36:16,019 --> 00:36:17,219
He's trying to read your face.

841
00:36:18,259 --> 00:36:18,759
Yep.

842
00:36:19,779 --> 00:36:22,659
I'm going to do I still have the axe

843
00:36:23,619 --> 00:36:28,820
that I recovered the Brunner battle hammer king axe

844
00:36:29,619 --> 00:36:30,259
thingamajigger?

845
00:36:30,740 --> 00:36:34,020
It would be I don't know if it's on your person,

846
00:36:34,020 --> 00:36:35,620
but you still have it.

847
00:36:35,620 --> 00:36:36,820
I mean, it's pretty valuable.

848
00:36:36,820 --> 00:36:37,940
I'd probably keep it.

849
00:36:37,940 --> 00:36:39,620
What axes do you have on you?

850
00:36:39,620 --> 00:36:40,100
Jesus.

851
00:36:40,100 --> 00:36:41,060
So many axes.

852
00:36:41,060 --> 00:36:42,820
Haven't you ever seen those cartoons

853
00:36:42,820 --> 00:36:44,820
where it's like what you think it is

854
00:36:44,820 --> 00:36:46,020
and then what they actually is

855
00:36:46,020 --> 00:36:48,260
and they have like 80 weapons sticking out of their back?

856
00:36:48,260 --> 00:36:48,900
Fair enough.

857
00:36:48,900 --> 00:36:49,620
Yep.

858
00:36:49,620 --> 00:36:49,860
Sure.

859
00:36:49,860 --> 00:36:51,620
Then yeah, probably you have it on you.

860
00:36:51,620 --> 00:36:53,140
So I pull it out and I say,

861
00:36:54,180 --> 00:36:55,620
do you happen to know what this is?

862
00:36:55,620 --> 00:36:58,020
You see his face kind of drop and he's like,

863
00:36:58,019 --> 00:36:58,519
that's.

864
00:37:00,019 --> 00:37:00,900
Quietly, quietly.

865
00:37:02,259 --> 00:37:06,500
That's, if I'm not mistaken, an excellent lookalike

866
00:37:06,500 --> 00:37:10,179
of the lost axe of Brunner battle hammer.

867
00:37:10,739 --> 00:37:11,780
OK, OK, OK.

868
00:37:13,059 --> 00:37:15,139
What makes you think it's a lookalike?

869
00:37:15,139 --> 00:37:18,500
Well, because it was lost.

870
00:37:19,539 --> 00:37:20,980
OK, no, that's fair.

871
00:37:20,980 --> 00:37:22,739
I'm just, you know, just curious.

872
00:37:22,739 --> 00:37:24,579
I shuffle over to the other dwarf and I say,

873
00:37:24,579 --> 00:37:27,059
do you do happen to know what this is?

874
00:37:27,619 --> 00:37:31,139
He, too, looks at it in disbelief and says,

875
00:37:33,619 --> 00:37:34,259
that's the.

876
00:37:35,860 --> 00:37:38,980
He I'm assuming I can't touch it,

877
00:37:39,619 --> 00:37:44,579
but that's Brunner battle hammers axe

878
00:37:45,860 --> 00:37:50,099
or one that looks just like it.

879
00:37:50,739 --> 00:37:52,019
Sure, sure, sure, sure, sure.

880
00:37:52,739 --> 00:37:53,619
So it's a pretty good,

881
00:37:54,179 --> 00:37:55,539
pretty good replica you're thinking.

882
00:37:55,539 --> 00:38:04,179
I mean, unless you found it or were the one to have stolen it,

883
00:38:05,779 --> 00:38:08,259
which makes me want to back away from you.

884
00:38:09,619 --> 00:38:11,380
Slowly back away from me.

885
00:38:11,380 --> 00:38:12,500
Oh, I see.

886
00:38:12,500 --> 00:38:13,139
Yeah.

887
00:38:13,139 --> 00:38:17,139
And I lean forward to him and I'm going to roll a persuasion roll here, Russ,

888
00:38:17,860 --> 00:38:20,340
because with my belt of dwarven kind,

889
00:38:20,340 --> 00:38:23,219
I get advantage on persuasion checks with with dwarves.

890
00:38:23,219 --> 00:38:25,380
All right, tell me, tell me what you want to do and then roll.

891
00:38:25,539 --> 00:38:32,099
I say, you know, would you believe me if I told you this was the real X?

892
00:38:33,219 --> 00:38:36,900
And you'd be honest with me if you were the doppelganger, right?

893
00:38:40,099 --> 00:38:41,139
Roll your persuasion.

894
00:38:45,059 --> 00:38:46,739
That is a 18.

895
00:38:50,420 --> 00:38:52,980
I mean, you seem like a very trustworthy individual,

896
00:38:53,699 --> 00:38:57,380
and I would I'd have it under good authority to believe you.

897
00:38:59,380 --> 00:39:02,420
Something tells me that this might be it.

898
00:39:02,420 --> 00:39:06,420
And of course, I would tell you if I was the doppelganger,

899
00:39:06,420 --> 00:39:08,980
but it is he that is the doppelganger.

900
00:39:11,219 --> 00:39:12,260
Right, right, right, right, right.

901
00:39:16,900 --> 00:39:20,420
Do I happen to know some like obscure piece of dwarven

902
00:39:21,220 --> 00:39:25,460
history that I can like entrap one of these two guys with?

903
00:39:26,980 --> 00:39:30,180
It's hard when the doppelgangers are strangers to you, right?

904
00:39:30,180 --> 00:39:30,900
Like, I don't know.

905
00:39:30,900 --> 00:39:32,980
I don't know much about their clan.

906
00:39:32,980 --> 00:39:35,460
They both seem to recognize the X.

907
00:39:36,500 --> 00:39:41,780
Yeah, I mean, you toss something out and roll a history

908
00:39:41,780 --> 00:39:43,700
and then that will determine if it's true or not.

909
00:39:44,740 --> 00:39:46,900
All right, I see what you've done.

910
00:39:46,900 --> 00:39:47,860
You put it back on me.

911
00:39:47,860 --> 00:39:51,140
Touché, fine sir, touché.

912
00:39:52,340 --> 00:39:54,500
Shall I open it up to the think tank here?

913
00:39:54,500 --> 00:39:55,940
Does anyone have any ideas?

914
00:39:58,019 --> 00:40:00,579
At this moment, Thea and Beefy Boy,

915
00:40:01,380 --> 00:40:04,660
you find your way to the open clearing and you peek out

916
00:40:04,660 --> 00:40:09,539
and you see Flint brandishing what you recognize as

917
00:40:09,539 --> 00:40:14,099
Brunor Battle Hammer's axe, Thea, to another dwarf,

918
00:40:14,099 --> 00:40:15,860
another dwarven male, and you see another

919
00:40:16,579 --> 00:40:19,620
dwarf and male standing across the clearing who looks

920
00:40:19,620 --> 00:40:22,660
eerily similar to the one that Flint is talking to.

921
00:40:24,660 --> 00:40:27,300
Well, this is a weird little situation we've stumbled upon.

922
00:40:28,180 --> 00:40:28,660
It is.

923
00:40:29,300 --> 00:40:29,860
It is.

924
00:40:30,579 --> 00:40:33,700
I mean, I guess they could just be twins,

925
00:40:34,660 --> 00:40:36,019
but that seems unlikely.

926
00:40:36,980 --> 00:40:39,380
I don't see how we could possibly help this situation,

927
00:40:39,380 --> 00:40:40,340
but let's go try.

928
00:40:41,460 --> 00:40:43,860
I think I'm just going to stay here for a minute and

929
00:40:44,820 --> 00:40:45,700
take things in.

930
00:40:46,260 --> 00:40:46,579
Sure.

931
00:40:48,340 --> 00:40:52,660
So I'm going to spend one minute observing these creatures

932
00:40:52,660 --> 00:40:55,460
and then I can learn information about them

933
00:40:56,260 --> 00:40:57,780
compared to my own.

934
00:40:59,059 --> 00:41:01,300
So I want to see if there is a difference between them.

935
00:41:01,300 --> 00:41:02,740
It's know your enemy.

936
00:41:02,740 --> 00:41:05,059
So I can watch them and see if they are stronger than me.

937
00:41:10,579 --> 00:41:13,059
In the out of game thing, I can know like,

938
00:41:13,219 --> 00:41:18,579
what level they are, their hit points, their strength score.

939
00:41:18,579 --> 00:41:21,219
So I want to watch them and see if I see a difference

940
00:41:21,219 --> 00:41:22,259
between the two of them.

941
00:41:22,259 --> 00:41:22,820
Sure.

942
00:41:22,820 --> 00:41:24,579
We'll play it more narratively.

943
00:41:24,579 --> 00:41:28,659
And I don't feel like that's going to help either way,

944
00:41:28,659 --> 00:41:30,259
but I'll suss them out.

945
00:41:30,259 --> 00:41:33,380
Okay, I'll send you something in the chat here

946
00:41:34,019 --> 00:41:36,579
momentarily that you can use for that.

947
00:41:37,219 --> 00:41:37,460
Okay.

948
00:41:38,179 --> 00:41:39,940
Um, okay.

949
00:41:39,940 --> 00:41:44,340
So you're coming up with something history as you see

950
00:41:44,340 --> 00:41:47,860
Thea come in as you're just kind of standing there

951
00:41:47,860 --> 00:41:49,860
thinking real hard about history.

952
00:41:50,420 --> 00:41:53,940
You guys have been standing in silence for like a while.

953
00:41:53,940 --> 00:41:54,820
Is everything okay?

954
00:41:55,460 --> 00:41:58,980
Well, it seems like we have a bit of a doppelganger

955
00:41:58,980 --> 00:42:00,019
situation here.

956
00:42:00,019 --> 00:42:03,300
He claims that one's the doppelganger

957
00:42:03,300 --> 00:42:05,460
and that one claims he's the doppelganger.

958
00:42:05,460 --> 00:42:06,340
Weird.

959
00:42:06,340 --> 00:42:12,340
Hey, are dwarves like naturally resistant to anything

960
00:42:12,340 --> 00:42:15,220
like poison or anything like that?

961
00:42:16,260 --> 00:42:18,420
Well, I mean, we've traveled together a long time.

962
00:42:18,420 --> 00:42:19,539
I feel a little insulted.

963
00:42:19,539 --> 00:42:21,059
You don't know that answer.

964
00:42:21,059 --> 00:42:22,340
But, uh, yeah, poison.

965
00:42:22,340 --> 00:42:23,940
They've started drinking already.

966
00:42:23,940 --> 00:42:27,940
All right, fellas, I have a solution for you.

967
00:42:29,220 --> 00:42:29,700
What?

968
00:42:29,700 --> 00:42:30,579
And then from across.

969
00:42:31,300 --> 00:42:31,800
What?

970
00:42:33,300 --> 00:42:35,140
All right, come together, come together.

971
00:42:35,779 --> 00:42:40,339
I'm going to I'm going to I'm going to look at you

972
00:42:40,339 --> 00:42:42,739
like look at me in the eyes and I'm going to be able

973
00:42:42,739 --> 00:42:47,940
to just tell which one of you is the doppelganger.

974
00:42:47,940 --> 00:42:48,500
Are you ready?

975
00:42:51,859 --> 00:42:52,900
Oh, okay.

976
00:42:54,179 --> 00:42:55,940
Yeah, she's she's really good at this, guys.

977
00:42:55,940 --> 00:42:57,619
Not her first doppelganger situation.

978
00:42:57,619 --> 00:42:58,500
Right, right.

979
00:42:58,500 --> 00:43:03,460
Yeah, I I look at them and I'm like, you know,

980
00:43:03,460 --> 00:43:05,539
your eyes, my eyes, look at each other.

981
00:43:05,539 --> 00:43:07,699
And then I cast poison spray on both of them.

982
00:43:11,699 --> 00:43:13,139
Why would you what are you doing?

983
00:43:14,099 --> 00:43:16,260
Well, only one of you should be resistant to that.

984
00:43:16,260 --> 00:43:18,980
So they rolled damage.

985
00:43:18,980 --> 00:43:19,860
Yeah, I guess so.

986
00:43:19,860 --> 00:43:21,380
Because they still take damage from it.

987
00:43:21,380 --> 00:43:22,019
I guess they do.

988
00:43:22,019 --> 00:43:23,619
I mean, resistance, not immune.

989
00:43:23,619 --> 00:43:26,019
But wow, poison spray is a big one.

990
00:43:26,019 --> 00:43:34,420
No, I'm only going to use it as a cantrip.

991
00:43:34,420 --> 00:43:36,259
But if I use it at like.

992
00:43:37,219 --> 00:43:38,420
And they both die like.

993
00:43:40,259 --> 00:43:40,980
Oh, no, shit.

994
00:43:40,980 --> 00:43:42,420
It's 3d12 damage.

995
00:43:47,139 --> 00:43:50,340
Oh, that's only a four and a two.

996
00:43:50,340 --> 00:43:53,539
That's six plus five is eleven.

997
00:43:54,420 --> 00:43:55,699
Okay, that's not too bad.

998
00:43:55,700 --> 00:43:56,820
Eleven poison damage.

999
00:43:57,620 --> 00:43:59,060
Who's feeling good, fellas?

1000
00:43:59,060 --> 00:44:00,980
Well, I mean, you just sprayed us with.

1001
00:44:00,980 --> 00:44:02,100
Yeah, I did.

1002
00:44:02,100 --> 00:44:02,660
I did.

1003
00:44:02,660 --> 00:44:02,980
Yep.

1004
00:44:02,980 --> 00:44:03,460
Sorry.

1005
00:44:03,460 --> 00:44:04,100
So sorry.

1006
00:44:05,300 --> 00:44:06,660
I don't know what you're trying to gain from this

1007
00:44:06,660 --> 00:44:08,980
because they both still take poison damage.

1008
00:44:08,980 --> 00:44:10,580
Regardless of resistance or not.

1009
00:44:11,220 --> 00:44:12,500
It's not like their skin melts.

1010
00:44:13,060 --> 00:44:13,780
It's a gas.

1011
00:44:15,060 --> 00:44:17,300
But one should seem more damaged than the other.

1012
00:44:19,700 --> 00:44:22,500
They seem exactly the same damage level.

1013
00:44:23,220 --> 00:44:24,980
I turn to Flint and I say, sorry.

1014
00:44:24,980 --> 00:44:26,099
Totally thought that would have worked.

1015
00:44:29,940 --> 00:44:32,179
I mean, I'll admit, I was very surprised.

1016
00:44:33,300 --> 00:44:35,139
They look to each other and they kind of.

1017
00:44:36,260 --> 00:44:39,460
They're much closer now, obviously, because they came to

1018
00:44:39,460 --> 00:44:42,260
get blasted in the face with poisonous gas.

1019
00:44:42,260 --> 00:44:42,900
Yeah, they did.

1020
00:44:42,900 --> 00:44:44,260
They're like, why don't you hire her?

1021
00:44:44,260 --> 00:44:44,980
And then they start.

1022
00:44:45,619 --> 00:44:47,619
Oh, no, he couldn't afford me.

1023
00:44:47,619 --> 00:44:48,340
Raise a hand.

1024
00:44:49,139 --> 00:44:50,260
What's it with you two?

1025
00:44:50,260 --> 00:44:53,619
And they start to move towards each other to start fighting each other.

1026
00:44:53,619 --> 00:44:54,819
Hmm.

1027
00:44:54,819 --> 00:44:56,980
Maybe we should just let them do get out.

1028
00:44:56,980 --> 00:45:00,420
I mean, I don't really feel like that answers the question

1029
00:45:00,420 --> 00:45:02,179
of which one of them is the doppelganger.

1030
00:45:03,139 --> 00:45:03,779
Oh, hold on.

1031
00:45:05,940 --> 00:45:10,259
Oh, I get a faint aura of any visible creature

1032
00:45:10,259 --> 00:45:13,139
or object in the area that bears magic.

1033
00:45:14,420 --> 00:45:15,059
Not magic.

1034
00:45:15,059 --> 00:45:15,559
Oh, God.

1035
00:45:16,739 --> 00:45:20,900
All right, Russ, I figured out my dwarven history.

1036
00:45:20,900 --> 00:45:25,860
I'm going to ask them if they can recite the oath of dwarven allegiance.

1037
00:45:25,860 --> 00:45:26,900
Oh, it's a good one.

1038
00:45:26,900 --> 00:45:27,780
Every dwarf knows.

1039
00:45:27,780 --> 00:45:29,300
Every dwarf has learned this.

1040
00:45:29,300 --> 00:45:30,660
Do I know what the dwarf.

1041
00:45:31,300 --> 00:45:32,099
I think you do.

1042
00:45:32,099 --> 00:45:33,300
I mean, it's not a real thing.

1043
00:45:33,300 --> 00:45:36,019
I pledge my allegiance to the clan.

1044
00:45:37,700 --> 00:45:39,539
Yeah, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

1045
00:45:39,539 --> 00:45:41,139
Like we've all learned in school.

1046
00:45:41,139 --> 00:45:41,700
All right.

1047
00:45:41,700 --> 00:45:43,619
So go for it there.

1048
00:45:44,500 --> 00:45:44,820
All right.

1049
00:45:47,300 --> 00:45:50,180
So that is a 20, but it wasn't critical

1050
00:45:50,179 --> 00:45:51,699
as far as my history check goes.

1051
00:45:52,500 --> 00:45:57,059
You want us to say the oath of the dwarven clan of the rock racks?

1052
00:45:57,059 --> 00:45:59,460
I mean, just the generic dwarven clan oath.

1053
00:45:59,460 --> 00:46:05,139
Yeah, and then they both start up very like almost in cadence.

1054
00:46:05,139 --> 00:46:08,899
We pledge the allegiance to the clan of the dwarves

1055
00:46:08,899 --> 00:46:13,219
and we are the rock racks and we like to party.

1056
00:46:13,219 --> 00:46:15,219
The mighty, mighty rock racks.

1057
00:46:15,219 --> 00:46:18,419
Doesn't matter what you say, we will beat you anyway.

1058
00:46:20,819 --> 00:46:21,699
And they go on.

1059
00:46:21,699 --> 00:46:22,579
So they both know it.

1060
00:46:22,579 --> 00:46:25,940
They both, they both like, yeah, like, like they learned it together.

1061
00:46:27,699 --> 00:46:31,059
Are you sure one of them is a doppelganger?

1062
00:46:31,059 --> 00:46:32,259
He's the doppelganger.

1063
00:46:32,259 --> 00:46:33,219
No, he is.

1064
00:46:33,219 --> 00:46:34,579
Are you sure you're not just twins?

1065
00:46:37,460 --> 00:46:37,699
No.

1066
00:46:38,500 --> 00:46:40,739
I'm going to come join this long pause.

1067
00:46:40,739 --> 00:46:41,460
Incredible conversation now.

1068
00:46:41,460 --> 00:46:42,099
Who are you?

1069
00:46:43,619 --> 00:46:44,980
That's a loaded question.

1070
00:46:44,980 --> 00:46:46,739
Do you hire that one too?

1071
00:46:46,739 --> 00:46:48,980
Okay, you guys can't afford any of us.

1072
00:46:48,980 --> 00:46:50,019
We've been over this.

1073
00:46:50,019 --> 00:46:51,619
You don't know what we can afford.

1074
00:46:51,619 --> 00:46:52,099
Yeah.

1075
00:46:52,099 --> 00:46:53,139
Hey, here's the thing.

1076
00:46:53,139 --> 00:46:54,259
Empty your pockets.

1077
00:46:55,139 --> 00:46:55,940
Well, I left my-

1078
00:46:55,940 --> 00:46:57,619
Empty your pockets.

1079
00:46:57,619 --> 00:46:59,460
Left my satchel.

1080
00:46:59,460 --> 00:46:59,960
Empty up.

1081
00:47:00,659 --> 00:47:01,619
Empty their pockets.

1082
00:47:02,739 --> 00:47:04,739
Does one of them have government issued ID?

1083
00:47:04,739 --> 00:47:07,539
Yeah, is there going to be just a business card that says I'm a doppelganger?

1084
00:47:07,539 --> 00:47:12,179
I'm wondering, does one have nothing in his pockets and the other one have things?

1085
00:47:12,179 --> 00:47:18,259
Both empty their pockets, a few random pieces of coin.

1086
00:47:18,260 --> 00:47:20,260
I need to know more about doppelgangers, you guys.

1087
00:47:21,700 --> 00:47:25,620
So philosophically, are you guys just mad?

1088
00:47:27,700 --> 00:47:28,500
Why are you fighting?

1089
00:47:29,220 --> 00:47:30,180
It should be a compliment.

1090
00:47:30,180 --> 00:47:32,180
Someone wants to be exactly like you.

1091
00:47:32,180 --> 00:47:32,820
Seems nice.

1092
00:47:32,820 --> 00:47:34,660
Except a doppelganger sneaks into your life,

1093
00:47:34,660 --> 00:47:38,020
murders you, and tries to take over your whole existence.

1094
00:47:38,020 --> 00:47:39,540
Oh, that doesn't sound good.

1095
00:47:39,540 --> 00:47:40,420
Oh, that is bad.

1096
00:47:40,420 --> 00:47:40,740
Yeah.

1097
00:47:40,740 --> 00:47:42,820
What do you got going on that's worth taking over?

1098
00:47:43,620 --> 00:47:45,140
Yeah, no, great question.

1099
00:47:45,140 --> 00:47:46,900
Are you high up in your plan?

1100
00:47:46,900 --> 00:47:50,500
Yeah, well, I mean, I've got, you know, that big promotion coming to work.

1101
00:47:51,700 --> 00:47:55,780
And clearly it's next in line to the big boss.

1102
00:47:57,380 --> 00:47:58,260
It's the Rock Racks.

1103
00:47:58,980 --> 00:47:59,700
Whose name is?

1104
00:48:00,340 --> 00:48:01,300
Gwendover.

1105
00:48:01,300 --> 00:48:02,180
Gwendover.

1106
00:48:04,260 --> 00:48:05,780
Gwendover Rock Rack.

1107
00:48:05,780 --> 00:48:07,940
Russ defaulting to a G name?

1108
00:48:07,940 --> 00:48:08,740
It's been a while.

1109
00:48:08,740 --> 00:48:09,619
I'm amazed.

1110
00:48:10,660 --> 00:48:11,160
Okay.

1111
00:48:12,980 --> 00:48:14,820
Got anyone special at home?

1112
00:48:15,620 --> 00:48:17,460
Well, not right now.

1113
00:48:18,340 --> 00:48:19,380
Oh, no, it's okay.

1114
00:48:19,380 --> 00:48:20,420
There's nothing wrong with that.

1115
00:48:20,420 --> 00:48:21,539
You don't have to rub it in.

1116
00:48:21,539 --> 00:48:23,780
Geez, what'd you hire them just to make me feel bad?

1117
00:48:23,780 --> 00:48:25,780
No one here is hired.

1118
00:48:25,780 --> 00:48:28,980
Well, it's very convenient that the three of you has come along

1119
00:48:28,980 --> 00:48:31,780
and you're trying to stop me from killing this doppelganger.

1120
00:48:32,420 --> 00:48:34,740
Do you have a mom or a sibling?

1121
00:48:34,740 --> 00:48:36,180
Someone who might know something about you.

1122
00:48:36,180 --> 00:48:38,180
It's awfully hard for us to tell you two apart.

1123
00:48:38,180 --> 00:48:44,100
Both of them say at the same time, yeah, we have, yeah, sure.

1124
00:48:44,820 --> 00:48:45,700
Have parents?

1125
00:48:46,580 --> 00:48:48,019
Oh my God.

1126
00:48:49,140 --> 00:48:50,260
I smack both of them.

1127
00:48:51,860 --> 00:48:53,059
You guys are just twins.

1128
00:48:54,260 --> 00:48:56,100
Oh, you little bitches.

1129
00:48:56,100 --> 00:48:56,980
Come on.

1130
00:48:56,980 --> 00:48:59,940
If you're trying to rob us, I swear to God,

1131
00:48:59,940 --> 00:49:02,260
we've got a Wormling back there that's probably made

1132
00:49:02,900 --> 00:49:05,539
roasted shish kebabs out of whoever else you're working with.

1133
00:49:06,260 --> 00:49:06,980
I hit them again.

1134
00:49:08,340 --> 00:49:09,700
I'm not trying to rob you.

1135
00:49:09,700 --> 00:49:10,740
I'm trying to kill him.

1136
00:49:12,180 --> 00:49:12,980
Piss me off.

1137
00:49:13,619 --> 00:49:14,980
So you were trying to kill him?

1138
00:49:14,980 --> 00:49:15,699
Yeah.

1139
00:49:15,699 --> 00:49:17,219
Well, I mean, he's trying to kill me too.

1140
00:49:18,420 --> 00:49:20,420
Well, no, it kind of goes both ways.

1141
00:49:20,420 --> 00:49:21,380
Who's mom's favorite?

1142
00:49:21,380 --> 00:49:22,900
Who was trying to kill who first?

1143
00:49:22,900 --> 00:49:24,099
That's what I want to know.

1144
00:49:24,099 --> 00:49:25,940
One of them kind of has this like,

1145
00:49:28,340 --> 00:49:30,260
gives a big sigh and scowls.

1146
00:49:31,780 --> 00:49:33,219
Which question am I answering?

1147
00:49:34,659 --> 00:49:36,500
Who was trying to kill who first question?

1148
00:49:37,139 --> 00:49:41,380
Well, I might have tried to

1149
00:49:42,340 --> 00:49:45,539
throw him under a wagon once or twice before.

1150
00:49:45,539 --> 00:49:47,220
Oh, so I guess we also know the answer

1151
00:49:47,220 --> 00:49:48,980
to the who's mom's favorite question.

1152
00:49:48,980 --> 00:49:50,980
Yeah, probably.

1153
00:49:51,940 --> 00:49:52,820
Not me.

1154
00:49:52,820 --> 00:49:53,700
Yeah, no, we got that.

1155
00:49:53,700 --> 00:49:54,500
Not Greg.

1156
00:49:54,500 --> 00:49:54,900
No.

1157
00:49:54,900 --> 00:49:55,460
Oh, Greg.

1158
00:49:55,460 --> 00:49:55,700
No.

1159
00:49:55,700 --> 00:49:56,500
Oh, Greg.

1160
00:49:56,500 --> 00:49:57,700
Oh, Greg.

1161
00:49:57,700 --> 00:50:00,340
Thru Dwenir over there.

1162
00:50:01,059 --> 00:50:01,860
What?

1163
00:50:01,860 --> 00:50:04,579
His name, Thru Dwenir.

1164
00:50:04,579 --> 00:50:07,220
Thru Dwenir and your name is Greg?

1165
00:50:07,220 --> 00:50:07,619
Thru Dwenir.

1166
00:50:08,420 --> 00:50:11,699
Yeah.

1167
00:50:13,059 --> 00:50:13,460
Okay.

1168
00:50:14,339 --> 00:50:16,259
Well, then I don't know if he's the favorite.

1169
00:50:17,059 --> 00:50:18,579
Wow, so not the favorite.

1170
00:50:18,579 --> 00:50:19,940
I think you may have gotten the.

1171
00:50:19,940 --> 00:50:20,420
I don't know.

1172
00:50:21,460 --> 00:50:23,460
I don't know which of those is better or worse.

1173
00:50:24,819 --> 00:50:26,659
I mean, one is more whimsical.

1174
00:50:26,659 --> 00:50:27,539
It's true, yes.

1175
00:50:27,539 --> 00:50:31,619
Thru Dwenir goes back in the rock racks quite many years.

1176
00:50:32,500 --> 00:50:35,299
Ah, yes, but the tale of Greg will live on.

1177
00:50:36,180 --> 00:50:38,660
I think you see why I'm up against Greg here.

1178
00:50:38,660 --> 00:50:40,420
The ballad of Greg.

1179
00:50:40,420 --> 00:50:40,740
Yes.

1180
00:50:42,340 --> 00:50:43,780
Oh, dear Sir Greg.

1181
00:50:46,660 --> 00:50:49,300
Okay, I think you guys just need to just quit it.

1182
00:50:50,260 --> 00:50:52,660
Greg, you need to move somewhere else.

1183
00:50:52,660 --> 00:50:54,180
Don't live in your brother's shadow.

1184
00:50:54,180 --> 00:50:54,900
That's bullshit.

1185
00:50:54,900 --> 00:50:57,460
Yeah, make your own way.

1186
00:50:57,460 --> 00:50:58,980
Why do I gotta move?

1187
00:50:58,980 --> 00:50:59,860
We don't got to.

1188
00:50:59,860 --> 00:51:01,539
You have the opportunity to.

1189
00:51:03,220 --> 00:51:03,539
Right.

1190
00:51:03,539 --> 00:51:06,340
Okay, so.

1191
00:51:06,340 --> 00:51:06,579
Right.

1192
00:51:06,579 --> 00:51:07,219
Stop thinking.

1193
00:51:07,219 --> 00:51:07,619
Poor me.

1194
00:51:07,619 --> 00:51:08,259
Poor me.

1195
00:51:08,259 --> 00:51:08,820
Oh, no, man.

1196
00:51:08,820 --> 00:51:09,219
Okay.

1197
00:51:09,219 --> 00:51:11,219
Hey, you gotta make your own breaks in this world, Greg.

1198
00:51:11,219 --> 00:51:11,779
Okay.

1199
00:51:11,779 --> 00:51:12,099
Yeah.

1200
00:51:12,659 --> 00:51:13,219
Yeah.

1201
00:51:13,219 --> 00:51:13,539
Okay.

1202
00:51:14,259 --> 00:51:14,659
Great.

1203
00:51:14,659 --> 00:51:16,420
You hear that Thru Dwenir?

1204
00:51:16,420 --> 00:51:16,659
Yeah.

1205
00:51:17,539 --> 00:51:19,380
See, I'm going to go with these folks.

1206
00:51:20,900 --> 00:51:23,139
And we're going to make our own path.

1207
00:51:23,139 --> 00:51:24,420
Oh, no.

1208
00:51:25,619 --> 00:51:26,500
What?

1209
00:51:26,500 --> 00:51:29,860
The other dwarf who you now know is Thru Dwenir.

1210
00:51:29,860 --> 00:51:30,420
So fine.

1211
00:51:31,380 --> 00:51:32,179
No one cares.

1212
00:51:33,140 --> 00:51:35,540
See if anybody will cry that you don't come home.

1213
00:51:35,540 --> 00:51:35,780
Bye.

1214
00:51:37,140 --> 00:51:38,260
He begins walking off.

1215
00:51:38,820 --> 00:51:39,620
All right, friends.

1216
00:51:41,060 --> 00:51:43,220
Looks like we have some adventuring to do.

1217
00:51:44,100 --> 00:51:47,620
You've freed me from my hostile family.

1218
00:51:48,260 --> 00:51:50,020
I turned my back while he was talking.

1219
00:51:50,020 --> 00:51:51,540
I'm like, guys, I'm so sorry.

1220
00:51:52,980 --> 00:51:54,500
This seems to happen a lot, I feel.

1221
00:51:56,420 --> 00:51:58,100
You're just a natural born leader.

1222
00:51:58,100 --> 00:51:59,140
People want to follow you.

1223
00:52:00,500 --> 00:52:01,540
I think it's true.

1224
00:52:01,539 --> 00:52:04,739
You've adopted two strays and a goat in the last 12 hours.

1225
00:52:08,739 --> 00:52:10,579
Three strays if you count Perseus.

1226
00:52:10,579 --> 00:52:11,139
Oh, yeah.

1227
00:52:11,139 --> 00:52:12,739
Well, we can't forget about Perseus.

1228
00:52:13,460 --> 00:52:14,340
Who's a Perseus?

1229
00:52:14,340 --> 00:52:15,779
Oh, this is Perseus.

1230
00:52:15,779 --> 00:52:17,380
And he climbs out of my pocket.

1231
00:52:17,380 --> 00:52:19,699
Oh, got a little rodent friend.

1232
00:52:19,699 --> 00:52:22,659
Do you also have an animal companion with you?

1233
00:52:22,659 --> 00:52:23,619
No, do I need one?

1234
00:52:23,619 --> 00:52:24,179
I can go find one.

1235
00:52:24,179 --> 00:52:24,739
No, it's all right.

1236
00:52:24,739 --> 00:52:26,340
We're just practically a zoo already.

1237
00:52:26,340 --> 00:52:28,019
I just wanted to get a full head count.

1238
00:52:28,019 --> 00:52:30,420
I need a drink and I wander back into the forest.

1239
00:52:31,220 --> 00:52:31,940
I like to drink.

1240
00:52:33,139 --> 00:52:34,820
Greg follows in behind you.

1241
00:52:34,820 --> 00:52:37,460
All right, Greg, you go, we'll go grab your bow

1242
00:52:37,460 --> 00:52:39,220
and then you can come pick up this firewood

1243
00:52:39,220 --> 00:52:41,780
and we'll go, we'll get you to Waterdeep, my friend.

1244
00:52:41,780 --> 00:52:42,579
Oh, cool.

1245
00:52:42,579 --> 00:52:44,099
I've never been to Waterdeep before.

1246
00:52:45,460 --> 00:52:46,500
Looking forward to this.

1247
00:52:46,500 --> 00:52:48,019
I got to carry all this firewood though?

1248
00:52:48,659 --> 00:52:49,780
Yeah, I mean.

1249
00:52:49,780 --> 00:52:50,820
Oh, that seems fair.

1250
00:52:50,820 --> 00:52:52,980
Yeah, I'm a long, I'm a team player.

1251
00:52:53,619 --> 00:52:55,300
I help him carry the firewood.

1252
00:52:56,340 --> 00:53:00,180
I like how I immediately hate any NPC you bring

1253
00:53:00,180 --> 00:53:02,820
at us. I always have the same reaction.

1254
00:53:02,820 --> 00:53:04,580
It's, oh, god damn it.

1255
00:53:07,460 --> 00:53:08,820
Fucking Greg now.

1256
00:53:08,820 --> 00:53:12,420
Greg, Greg Grancis, god damn it.

1257
00:53:13,380 --> 00:53:15,220
So what's your story there, friend?

1258
00:53:15,220 --> 00:53:20,260
Did you get, you guys been together a long time?

1259
00:53:20,260 --> 00:53:21,220
Oh, no.

1260
00:53:21,220 --> 00:53:22,260
No, stray.

1261
00:53:22,260 --> 00:53:24,820
Yeah, I just met these guys earlier.

1262
00:53:24,820 --> 00:53:27,060
They busted me out of the pokey.

1263
00:53:28,740 --> 00:53:29,240
Oh.

1264
00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:30,600
But it was okay.

1265
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:32,200
I mean, I helped them fight some zombies

1266
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,680
and they got like sucked into a portal.

1267
00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:37,960
Traveling with some prisoners?

1268
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:39,880
Yeah, you know, pretty run-of-the-mill stuff for us.

1269
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:41,560
Yeah, no, that's cool.

1270
00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:43,000
Do you know who these guys are?

1271
00:53:45,240 --> 00:53:46,840
Well, they looked very familiar

1272
00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:51,480
and his cadence was very commanding.

1273
00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:53,080
Have you heard of Flint and Thea?

1274
00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:53,720
And that beard.

1275
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:57,880
Yeah, Flint and Thea, the decimators of dragons.

1276
00:53:57,880 --> 00:53:58,920
And Eulara.

1277
00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:02,599
And Eulara, yeah, they're all very great saviors.

1278
00:54:04,119 --> 00:54:06,200
We never run into just on the road.

1279
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:07,240
What do you mean this is them?

1280
00:54:07,240 --> 00:54:08,840
That's Flint and that's Thea.

1281
00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:13,960
Oh, maybe I shouldn't have shot at them with an arrow.

1282
00:54:14,519 --> 00:54:16,119
I wasn't too worried about it.

1283
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:20,119
Besides, I recovered Brunor Battle Hammer's battle axe.

1284
00:54:20,119 --> 00:54:20,599
So we're good.

1285
00:54:20,599 --> 00:54:21,800
Seriously, it's not a fake?

1286
00:54:22,599 --> 00:54:23,800
Nah, real deal, baby.

1287
00:54:24,519 --> 00:54:25,480
Where'd you get it from?

1288
00:54:25,480 --> 00:54:27,480
Baby's, baby's happening.

1289
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,199
Yeah, a little magic spell got it for me.

1290
00:54:30,199 --> 00:54:31,159
Don't you worry about it.

1291
00:54:31,159 --> 00:54:31,659
Wow.

1292
00:54:33,240 --> 00:54:34,039
That's really cool.

1293
00:54:36,119 --> 00:54:38,199
Okay, so I'm traveling with the people

1294
00:54:38,199 --> 00:54:40,119
who saved the world and the prisoner.

1295
00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:43,960
We also saved.

1296
00:54:45,079 --> 00:54:45,719
Former prisoner.

1297
00:54:45,719 --> 00:54:46,679
Jailbird, if you will.

1298
00:54:48,679 --> 00:54:49,880
I didn't commit a crime.

1299
00:54:50,519 --> 00:54:52,119
I didn't want to join an evil plot.

1300
00:54:53,639 --> 00:54:56,039
You guys get back to the campsite

1301
00:54:56,119 --> 00:54:58,679
and drop the firewood.

1302
00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:01,079
And he looks up at the wagon and says,

1303
00:55:01,079 --> 00:55:02,279
is there, is there, is there...

1304
00:55:04,279 --> 00:55:05,079
That's just Donnie.

1305
00:55:05,079 --> 00:55:05,320
Yeah.

1306
00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:05,880
Don't you worry about him.

1307
00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:08,039
I was not joking when I was slapping you

1308
00:55:08,039 --> 00:55:09,800
and telling you how he had a Wyrmling

1309
00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:11,239
who would destroy your group.

1310
00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:13,719
I thought you were being paid to say that at that point.

1311
00:55:16,679 --> 00:55:19,960
Okay, I'm just, I'm going to go get some more firewood

1312
00:55:21,159 --> 00:55:23,880
and I'll be back in a second.

1313
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:24,679
I don't think he's going to be back.

1314
00:55:24,679 --> 00:55:25,480
Sure, we'll be here.

1315
00:55:25,480 --> 00:55:26,440
Okay, cool.

1316
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:27,559
Yeah, it's good.

1317
00:55:27,559 --> 00:55:28,920
Good to see you guys.

1318
00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:29,719
I'll be right back.

1319
00:55:29,719 --> 00:55:31,559
Yeah, be nice to your brother.

1320
00:55:31,559 --> 00:55:32,599
I don't know what you're talking about.

1321
00:55:32,599 --> 00:55:33,480
I'll be right back soon.

1322
00:55:36,599 --> 00:55:39,079
Inside my bag of holding,

1323
00:55:39,079 --> 00:55:42,280
I bring out a tankard of beer and many glasses.

1324
00:55:48,679 --> 00:55:49,639
I don't know about you guys,

1325
00:55:51,240 --> 00:55:54,440
but a horde of zombies in a disappearing city

1326
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:55,559
makes me want to drink.

1327
00:55:55,559 --> 00:55:56,519
Yeah, I'm into it.

1328
00:55:56,519 --> 00:55:57,720
Yeah, that'd be nice.

1329
00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:00,519
Hey, Donnie, you going to light this fire, buddy?

1330
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:06,280
There you go.

1331
00:56:07,559 --> 00:56:08,280
Thanks.

1332
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:09,240
It's lit.

1333
00:56:09,240 --> 00:56:11,880
You got any, you cooking up any good stuff?

1334
00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:14,200
You catch any animals out there?

1335
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:15,639
I throw him a piece of bread.

1336
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:17,720
This isn't what I was looking for.

1337
00:56:17,720 --> 00:56:19,000
As if you're still hungry.

1338
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:20,519
The carbs go straight to my hips.

1339
00:56:21,079 --> 00:56:22,760
That's what happens to all of us, Donnie.

1340
00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:24,600
Oh, all right.

1341
00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:25,560
Well, at least it's not me.

1342
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,520
And unless you specifically want to talk about anything else,

1343
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:31,640
Greg does not return.

1344
00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:33,240
What?

1345
00:56:33,240 --> 00:56:33,880
Shocking.

1346
00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:34,840
Weird.

1347
00:56:34,840 --> 00:56:40,040
The night rolls on without incident as we fade into the next day.

1348
00:56:53,160 --> 00:57:02,760

Well, I mean, I'm from...

1360
00:57:45,799 --> 00:57:47,079
Sorry, I like to rest this way.

1361
00:57:52,039 --> 00:57:54,759
Do you feel, Tom, do you feel like they have a secret?

1362
00:57:56,039 --> 00:57:59,879
Yeah, remember they chatted about it last time and they were like,

1363
00:57:59,879 --> 00:58:02,279
oh yeah, see you guys later on the Skype call.

1364
00:58:02,279 --> 00:58:03,639
We're just going to chat for a little bit.

1365
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:09,559
I'm good.

1366
00:58:09,559 --> 00:58:12,839
Look, next time one of you dies, you can have secret secret meetings too.

1367
00:58:14,039 --> 00:58:15,799
Fine, Russ, I'll hold you that.

1368
00:58:15,799 --> 00:58:18,279
An arrow zips by your head again and says...

1369
00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:21,960
The arrow doesn't say the person you're sh-

1370
00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,680
Oh, I thought it was a talking arrow and I was very excited about it.

1371
00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:28,440
Coming in hot.

1372
00:58:28,440 --> 00:58:33,560
