Aerendyl: Okay.
Caitlin: I hear your camera.
Caitlin: Youāre too.

DM: All right, shut up. Welcome to the 43rd and a half session of the NB.
Aerendyl: Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Shain: Yes, sir.
Aragorn: Yes, sir, then.
Aerendyl: What was the half session?
Caitlin: Not a lot.
DM: You know how many many sessions weāve had?
Shain: Yeah. Like three, four.
DM: According.
Caitlin: I think Dwight can finish a girlfriend and getting a fiance was pretty much more than
DM: Well, many sessions are not full party. So yes, whenever you guys split up that counts as half session.
Aerendyl: According to your sleepy ass.
Shain: I donāt know.
Aragorn: You know, I mean, when I start punching a kid,
DM: Anyways, um, you guys need.
Aerendyl: Hey, thereās a reason itās called a fantasy game.
Caitlin: a half session.
DM: Nope, it was just a half session to me.
DM: Why do you guys seem to bully children a little too often?
Caitlin: Him bullying that child.
Aragorn: why make them bullyable?
Caitlin: Him bullying that child was pretty rough.
Shain: Donāt you dare.
Aerendyl: Yes, yes.
Caitlin: Maybe when Iām working my weenore.
Caitlin: He.
DM: Fair enough. All right, you guys need a, um,
Caitlin: This is cobbles.
Aragorn: Yes.
DM: you guys need a recap of last session more or less?
DM: Alrighty, session started on moon blossom 30 second at 3 p.m.
Aragorn: Oh, thatās my birthday.
DM: Uh, thatās not correct. Thatās supposed to be, uh,
DM: oopsie. And Iām smart. Uh, at 11 a.m. Sorry, uh, to, uh, uh, yep, thatās still incorrect.
DM: Airborne wakes up around 4 a.m. I can read. I promise.
DM: To an argument as a door, blah, blah, blah, blah. Essentially, he missed a roll call.
Aragorn: Iām so happy.
Shain: 113.
DM: He got in trouble for that. He had to make those types of mistakes.
Aerendyl: you
Shain: Special great sorcerer.
DM: Then he gave you the oopsie days. Heās sorry. I forgot your special grade like that.
DM: Um, essentially, uh, they tell you a.m.
DM: Head to the North gate. Your, your squads showing up.
DM: Uh, you met them. There are a whole bunch of cadets that are really green.
DM: And then you immediately said, letās throw you right to the deep end and letās go investigate some
DM: undead weapons dealer. You did some investigation, met up with the party. Um, they
Shain: Thank you.
DM: explained that they have their meeting set for later today. Um,
DM: then air-gorn did the exact correct thing to do when youāre immediately given authority over cadets.
DM: And that is telling them to go do their own thing for a while because youāre busy.
DM: Um, and you took a small group, uh, Silas, Seraphina, Grum, uh, Torven and Bored,
Aragorn: Thank you.
DM: and took them with you to the place for, uh, the undead arms dealer. Um,
Shain: 1.
DM: then you guys just kind of started heading that direction. You got to about the center of the city.
DM: And that is where the session ended. Um,
Caitlin: You forgot the subplot where dragon was a dumbass bitch.
DM: did you guys just want to continue making your way there? Yeah, yes sir.
Shain: What?
Aragorn: Youāve been a dumbass bitch.
Caitlin: No.
DM: Thereās plenty of subplots that are just not beating to the mentioned, but I donāt particularly
Caitlin: No, we needed to try.
Aragorn: Shut your bitch ass up.
Aragorn: All right. Letās continue.
DM: remember him being, are you talking about the Stink and breaking it to the place down here at the
Caitlin: Dragon was like, no, dragon was like, you didnāt let me break into a building, so Iām
Aragorn: Yeah. Like flex its child.
Caitlin: not going to help you.
Caitlin: And then Andrew was like, and then he did.
Caitlin: You forgot the subplot where dragon was a bit.
Aerendyl: Anything youāre going.
Aragorn: Yeah. Iām just chill like that.
Caitlin: Oh, thanks though.
DM: bottom right? Thatās not, I wasnāt last session. That was a session before last.
Caitlin: No, last session he convinced him though.
Caitlin: Andrew kind of convinced Dwight.
Caitlin: Took like 15 minutes of dragon going, no, and Andrew going, yes.
Shain: Iām not sure if youāre going to be able to do that.
DM: I see, I see. Yeah, Iām not fixing that. Um, give me 12 seconds.
Caitlin: He.
Aragorn: Iām so happy.
Shain: You know, itās a miracle this group exists,
DM: All right. Sorry guys. Iām back. Um,
Shain: but also sometimes I wonder how weāre still functioning.
Aerendyl: Okay.
Caitlin: off
Shain: On the dot.
DM: Iāll give you five more seconds.
Caitlin: Thank you for watching and thank you all.
Shain: Five more seconds.
DM: Iām sorry it was six. Iām wrong. Um, it was this word like. Yeah, thatās what that was.
DM: Totally wasnāt six seconds. Give me back my drink. Yes, I actually bought myself.
DM: All right. Um, anyways, so thatās what happened last session. Uh, did you guys just want to
Caitlin: What was the plan?
DM: continue making your way up there? Itās not necessarily dark enough. Uh, it,
DM: itās important to my vlog. Itās only around like 7 30. So like the sun is very yearly.
Aerendyl: Yes.
DM: Yes sir.
Caitlin: What were we doing?
Caitlin: We talked about staking the area out, which I think we came to the fact it was a bad idea.
Caitlin: Because you would notice.
Caitlin: You were doing something with the recruits.
Shain: We have a new arrival.
Aragorn: Do I have anything with our kids?
Caitlin: I donāt know what I was doing.
Aerendyl: I even arrived at.
Shain: Yeah.

Shain: Shame on you.
DM: would you like a vibe check?
Aerendyl: Yes, butter, give me let me do a five check.
DM: Thatās going to be some religion.
Aerendyl: Yes, sir.
Aerendyl: That is a 14 for vibes. Wait.
DM: Yeah.
Caitlin: Wait.
Aerendyl: Iām not taking a long rest.
DM: Hmm. Your vibes relatively neutral. Not necessarily good. Not necessarily bad.
Aerendyl: What if I snub my toe in a rock and black damn thatās making me rethink this advantage.
DM: Thatās not how vibes work.
Caitlin: What are we doing for?
DM: Uh,
Aerendyl: Oh, no, yeah, I use all my luckies and flashes of geniuses.
DM: well, he uses his stuff in like 0.2 seconds.
Caitlin: Well what can I get back to my room?
DM: Wait a minute.
Aerendyl: I really do.
Aerendyl: Well, itās because these guys suck.
DM: Hang on, hang on, hang on.
DM: You are correct. I, I, I am wrong because that is the time assume you guys took a long
DM: rest because if I remember correctly, it was, uh, it was earlier.
DM: Let me, let me, let me check the, uh,
Caitlin: the
Shain: We fall asleep on the road.
DM: let me check the other logs one second.
Shain: Oh, that was a good sleep.
Shain: Yeah, but I feel the doing it.
DM: Okay, I am incorrect. It should actually be closer to like 4 4 30.
Shain: Yeah.
DM: Not 11. I apologize.
Aerendyl: I do need a long rest before we would go.
DM: Not 11, but not, not like seven.
Caitlin: one youāre no longer stolen for hours only a handful of
Aerendyl: I will take a long rest before we made up with them.
DM: Okay.
Caitlin: Money is your money.
Aerendyl: Like youāre literally youāre trying to play the good character in a party of people who are not necessarily good.
Shain: Morely.
DM: More like gray. Thatās how I, thatās how Iād say, uh,
Aerendyl: Yeah.
DM: yeah.
Shain: Very.
Aerendyl: Shane was originally like the goody two shoes and then he was like playing with us.
Aerendyl: Heās like, I donāt need to be good.
Shain: Yeah, because Iām not in my world, dude.
Aerendyl: This isnāt Shaneās world.
DM: This is virtual reality.
Aerendyl: It doesnāt make sense.
Shain: This is sort of online.
Aerendyl: Iām an NPC.
Caitlin: My name is Arkees Eko Kayaba.
Shain: Youāre more than that.
Aerendyl: Kill yourself.
Caitlin: What was the one who just said sword art?
Shain: Okay.
Aerendyl: Youāre the one who had to be weird about it.
Caitlin: Yes.
Aerendyl: My name is Aki.
Caitlin: Oh, do I know where youāre going?
DM: Iām like, youāre too funny.
Shain: Anyway.
Aerendyl: Some of the Alice from the hit campaign from Nate.
Aragorn: Youāre so.
Caitlin: And how?
Aerendyl: Sorry.
Aragorn: I thought you meant to say.
Aerendyl: I would like to take a long rest before we leave.
Caitlin: Not me.
DM: Youād like to do who now what?
Aerendyl: I want to take that long rest before I would leave.
Shain: And the.
Aerendyl: So I would take four hours while Shaneās pondering on his huge penis.
DM: Uh.
Caitlin: I.
Aragorn: Oh.
Aerendyl: You heard me.
DM: Does anybody else want to like do anything like, can I get just like the general
Shain: Yeah.
Caitlin: you
DM: overview or are we just basically time skipping to around meetup time or what?
Aerendyl: Well, if I had a long rest and we went to the shop and I did the vibe check, it would have been a 19.
DM: Guys see, I see. So weāre going to the shop after the fact.
Aerendyl: Yeah.
Aerendyl: How was the vibe?
DM: Does that correspond with you?
DM: um, uh, uh, Lux is going to the shop after the fact.
Aragorn: Iām so happy.
Caitlin: what
DM: The vibes feel better. Iām going to be honest.
Caitlin: Youāve got a long rest.
Aerendyl: Iām not sure.
Caitlin: Iām not gonna touch you.
Aerendyl: Sounds very sexual.
Caitlin: Alex, let me touch your Rubikās cube.
Caitlin: Damn it.
Caitlin: Fuck.
Aerendyl: Let me touch your ruby kid.
Caitlin: Iām touching that fucking Rubikās cube again.
Caitlin: Dude, I saw the birth of the universe last time I touched.
Shain: I can.
Caitlin: I want to do it again.
DM: Iām so sorry, my friends. My father lied to me inside he was going to fix me food and
Caitlin: Or a universe.
Aerendyl: I was on streams.
Shain: I donāt even know what this thing is.
Aerendyl: By streams.
Aerendyl: I mean my peanuts.
Caitlin: Iām not gonna touch you.
Aerendyl: How much gold do you have Shane?
DM: then didnāt so I stole his food and now heās saying heās going to fix me food. So we appreciate
Shain: Okay.
Shain: Okay. Well, there you go.
DM: him greatly.
DM: Anyways, back to what we were doing. So yes, the vibes work better. So what you doing with that?
Shain: Gifted a gap.
Caitlin: Give to dad.
Shain: Yep.
Aerendyl: You mean a thousand and twenty?
Shain: Well, about 120.
Shain: Yeah.
Caitlin: Iām gonna let Gold from you.
Shain: Sorry.
Aerendyl: So I need a hand you five K.
Shain: I canāt count.
Shain: Well, you donāt have to.
Shain: I mean, to be fair, all this is doing is.
Shain: Iām hoping that car.
Shain: This is still a god and assuming that he is.
Shain: If not, then well, so shot in the dark.
Aerendyl: Iām not even going to make a joke about it.
Aerendyl: So five K.
Shain: Basically, I think it was like six out of 100.
Aerendyl: How much gold do I need for the night talk?
Shain: Thatās pretty.
DM: You do actually donāt know.
Aerendyl: I donāt know.
Aerendyl: I just know that I have enough money for it.
Caitlin: You said you knew you had enough.
Caitlin: Why are you looking for more?
DM: You were never given a price. You have no idea what you even have right now is enough.
Caitlin: What?
Aerendyl: If I give Foxy 5K gold, then I donāt know.
Caitlin: You told it.
Caitlin: Oh, then you wonāt.
Caitlin: You probably wonāt have.
Caitlin: How much money do you have right now?
Aerendyl: Ten K.
Caitlin: I donāt.
Caitlin: If you, itās got.
Shain: This is.
Caitlin: Yo, yeah, you made a vibe check and you told him.
Aerendyl: I do actually because I met a game and you told me.
Shain: Okay.
DM: Oh, right, right. Whenever I met, okay, weāll keep in mind that thereās things I factored in that you might not be thinking Iām factoring it.
Caitlin: Yeah, you said he has enough for it.
Caitlin: You said the amount of gold in his inventory is enough.
Aerendyl: Look back to the logs.
Caitlin: We just donāt know where that is.
Aerendyl: Yeah.
Caitlin: Dude.
Shain: Iām.
Aerendyl: Iām not sure.
Aerendyl: Well, after this whole expedition, we could go there.
Caitlin: I think there are only 10 days sessions ago.
Aerendyl: Every one seems to be focused on revenge like a younger me.
Shain: I thought he would have picked up on that lead because they seem to know
Shain: something about him or at least they want him for something.
Shain: And right now.
Shain: You know, yeah.
Aerendyl: Itās been a while since.
Shain: You made a lot.
Aragorn: I donāt care.
Shain: Whatās your 20 sessions ago was three months, four months ago.
Aerendyl: Normally Shane, I would give you the funds.
Caitlin: Iām gonna let Gold from you.
Aerendyl: But you see, Iām in the in the fixings to get a great weapon.
Shain: Oh, good.
Shain: And itās fine.
Shain: Like two and be fair.
Aerendyl: And thatās going to cost me a lot of gold.
Shain: We can just steal it if I really wanted to, but I donāt know.
Aerendyl: So Iām going to hold off from now.
Shain: I just like.
Aerendyl: True, but it just has to be me and you.
Shain: Not least.
Aerendyl: We canāt go stealing with the others.
Aerendyl: We know how they are.
Shain: Well, I donāt think.
Aerendyl: We could bring Erragorn along and his bossy.
Shain: Well, I donāt think we should get the military involved because then.
Shain: Weāll have problematic stuff.
Aerendyl: I mean, letās be honest here.
Aerendyl: His military pals only only only serve him now.
Aerendyl: Not the actual military.
Shain: Do we know this?
Aerendyl: Surely we can, surely we can make them not talk.
Aerendyl: We have certain ways of doing that.
Shain: Silence.
Aerendyl: Cut their tugs off.
Shain: Okay.
Shain: I was talking about more magical essence, not necessarily cutting their body out.
Aerendyl: Oh, you always go for the magical first.
Caitlin: You
Aerendyl: I go physical.
Shain: See, because I donāt have any physical.
Shain: Iām limp.
Aerendyl: Iām going to dagger.
Aerendyl: Iām about to go pick up 40 of them.
Shain: Oh, no, Iām good.
Shain: Thank you.
Shain: Couldnāt swing it if I wanted to.
Aerendyl: Thereās something the only thing you can swing.
Aerendyl: Letās go to the place.
Shain: You want me to show you a hair and down.
Aerendyl: No.
Shain: Oh, you know, you know, you know.
Aerendyl: I didnāt even know it was the person existed in this world.
Shain: Anyways, well, it does for shame.
Aerendyl: If you could go then.
Aragorn: James flaccid, flopping cock comes out of his pants.
Shain: Okay, I already traded Nate that so.
Caitlin: Okay.
Caitlin: I must have not been awake for that one.
Shain: Yeah, you were.
Aragorn: Yeah, you are asleep when he slapped his penis across your face.
Shain: Okay.
DM: Time skip. Okay, so just to make just to make sure I understand because I was not following half of that conversation.
Shain: All right.
Shain: Moving on.
Shain: Time skip.
Shain: Mm hmm.
Aragorn: I have to be still lovers.
Aerendyl: Love us.
Shain: Um.
DM: Weāre times skipping to just a little before you meet with whatās his name. The undead guy. All right, fantastic.
Aerendyl: you
Shain: Uh.
DM: Well, as we time skip, okay, and you guys are doing whatever it is you do with the sky is getting, you know, the sunās going down.
DM: Itās getting dark on yards.
Shain: Seems good to know.
DM: At about give you takeish, 30.
DM: And there are bells that start going along all of the walls throughout the entire city.
Shain: BUUUUUNFLY
Aerendyl: Well, then I can say for true
Shain: What?
DM: They donāt seem to be, you know, notifying of anything like previously, you know, theyāve rung the bells or thereās been word of mouth that may people excited, like for example, the statute.
DM: But this seems more like a everybody to position something is happening like, you know, the whole nine yards.
Aerendyl: We need this tell
Aerendyl: the
Aerendyl: name of the
Aerendyl: person.
Shain: Oh, great.
Aerendyl: Also to
Aerendyl: questions of
DM: Itās rapid ringing of the bells.
Aerendyl: Someoneās joking out of there.
DM: What do you guys do?
Shain: Oh, eight?
DM: I should ask, where would you be around this time?
Aerendyl: What time is it?
DM: Itāll be about eight 30 ish.
Shain: Iām wearing their Auradļæ½ tougher so Iām a little bit better.
DM: Okay.
Aerendyl: So weāre on me and Chien are currently on the way to the meetup to where Errorgorn said
Caitlin: Yeah, cuz weāre all playing together.
Aerendyl: to meet up.
DM: Itās a place to the north of here.
Aerendyl: Which Iām pretty sure was the field where he first originated when we encountered him.
Aragorn: Yeah.
Aerendyl: Thatās okay.
Aerendyl: Yeah.
Caitlin: I would be with him as well.
Aerendyl: Is that a shake Nate?
DM: Where exactly would you be with your ultimately is that like youāre just because previously.
Caitlin: What is now?
DM: Yeah, according to the to what you originally said, the rest of your people went to go patrol or whatever votes.
Caitlin: Yeah, we didnāt take the whole 20.
Caitlin: We just took the five with us.
Caitlin: Yeah, send them back.
Caitlin: We donāt need all of them with us.
Aerendyl: infection and
Caitlin: Thatās what we were doing.
Caitlin: Thatās what we like to call a dead giveaway.
Aragorn: Weāre not bringing all of them with us.
Aragorn: Okay.
Aragorn: I would say weāll probably be like around like hand with.
DM: So in that case, one group is going to be like kind of in the city are going to be kind of outside over here.
Aerendyl: Jange Zersur.
DM: Why do you look so distraught?
Shain: Wow, thatās how far off.
Caitlin: Okay.
Aerendyl: Iām not a peep your DM.
Caitlin: Answer it.
Shain: What? No! No, no, no, no!
Aerendyl: Does anyone else get these messages during D&D?
Aragorn: He wants to be too unloaded in his mouth.
Aragorn: He burnt my shank.
Shain: No, no, I just⦠He just⦠You just term me unspecifically.
Aerendyl: Weāre just sending like a random gift.
Aragorn: Get what messages.
Aragorn: Wait, why messages.
Aerendyl: Itās just sent me a gift of that guy with that big tub of water exploding and just goes me inside you.
Shain: No! Okay, whatās that a while? It skips, but like⦠Itās tradition, all right?
Aerendyl: He knows it happens every week.
DM: Anyways, yes.
Aerendyl: Get on shoot him, my girlfriend.
Aerendyl: No, maybe.
Caitlin: Yeah, we fought.
DM: So the alarm bells are going off very loud and people begin to force panic as does happen whenever alarm bells are going off.
Aerendyl: No.
Aragorn: Yeah.
Shain: But heās just gonna grow darkā¦
Shain: No!
DM: And because of the the the rapidity of the alarm bells, of course, your unit just directly looks at you, airborne as the official leader looking for instructions.
Shain: Low I can get zero, miss.
Shain: I see.
DM: Theyāre obviously expecting a specific for you to get.
Aerendyl: You
DM: And then really in most instances, yes, however, as far as you can tell, theyāre alarm bells from all across the walls.
DM: So anywhere there is an alarm bell, theyāre all ringing.
DM: From where you are, it would probably be this place or this one.
Caitlin: Okay, Iām gonna let Gold from you.
Caitlin: Wait.
DM: Okay.
Shain: your military. Youāve got to do the use of the contract.
Caitlin: Hang on.
DM: Would you go to the one thatās closer to the south or would you just go for the closest me this one? Okay.
Caitlin: Enter, wait, hang on, hang on.
Caitlin: If Iām with you, enter, hang on.
Caitlin: There is a chance small.
Caitlin: This may be intentional.
Caitlin: Scott found out if a LARBELS are being triggered this might be a setup.
Aragorn: I mean, I donāt care.
Aragorn: I got to report anyways.
Caitlin: Yeah, but if you already have a task at hand, keep the five that we have and toss and
Shain: I donāt know if thatās right.
Caitlin: pick whoeverās in charge with the other 15 towards the bells.
Aragorn: Iām not throwing 15 without me.
Caitlin: Pick what? Thatās why I said pick one in charge.
Caitlin: What is your plan when we go to the guy anyway? Weāre not taking all 20 with us.
Aragorn: No, weāre taking the five that it shows.
DM: I will remind you just what a record. These are all equal ranked cadets fresh out of the academy.
Caitlin: So the 15 are going to have to go without a guard anyway.
Aragorn: Right.
Aragorn: Yeah.
Aragorn: Iām not gonna send 15 freshies just out to handle fucking who knows what.
Caitlin: We donāt know what it is though.
Aragorn: Exactly.
Aragorn: Thatās my point.
Aragorn: Iām ahead to there with all 20.
Aragorn: Iām gonna tell them to just like keep an eye out for anything.
Aragorn: Suspecial.
DM: As you try to make your way, just keep in mind that itās very difficult to get through.
Aragorn: Right.
DM: There is like I said, this place is really, really packed.
DM: And of course with the alarm bells ringing, everybodyās in panic. You know, youāre itās taking you a while to get to that.
Aragorn: Yeah.
DM: felony.
DM: Dragon and flux, what would you guys be doing?
DM: Yes, so you guys would be probably around here.
Shain: Try it for.
DM: Yeah, these are alarm bells. People are panicking guards are wanting this best they can.
DM: A30pm, the sun has basically just set.
DM: So itās night at this point.
Shain: ā¦
Caitlin: Okay.
DM: Let me clarify real quick.
DM: Is the meetup spot the location where you guys are meeting the whatās it or did you guys
Caitlin: Yeah.
DM: specify a, okay.
DM: In that case, you are considerably far away because youāre here and then youāre here.
DM: So the meeting place is all the way up here.
Shain: The guard run I, right?
Caitlin: Water.
DM: Iām sorry to repeat that.
Shain: The guard runs by, correct?
DM: Guards are running. Yes.
Caitlin: Is there anyone?
Shain: OK.
DM: Iām assuming one second. Whatās up, me?
Caitlin: Is there any immediate, and Iāll make the check, is there any immediately obvious, like
Caitlin: fires, invaders, like the sound of like weapons and blades being like active sounds of
Caitlin: battle, like large raging fires, anything to state that thereās something obvious going
Caitlin: on big?
DM: Nothing that you can see. There doesnāt seem to be any smoke in the sky.
DM: Thereās no strange lights or anything.
DM: Thereās no sounds of any obvious fighting.
DM: Of course, it would be a little hard to over here over the sound of the alarm bells and everybody freaking out.
Caitlin: True.
DM: But as far as you can tell, it seems to not be whatever this is.
Caitlin: Iām going to start making my way towards the meeting spot with the guy, and try to go as
DM: Sorry.
DM: It seems to not be like here.
Caitlin: like stick to cover.
Shain: Within advantage,
Caitlin: Iām not going to go at like Iām not going to go there.
Caitlin: I just want to get close and see if I run into any of the remaining party members on my
DM: Okay.
DM: What would you?
DM: Like I said, you guys are kind of over here and trade track four, which is kind of nearby where you guys are staying and youāre by the magic shop.
DM: So you guys are just be around this area.
Shain: Yeah, I got you.
DM: Your meeting location is all the way up here.
DM: So thatās across the city in panic.
DM: Thatās thatās practically an eternity.
DM: And very similar thing, by the way, for you, Nate, you have it a little better because you guys, youāre kind of outside of the city walls.
Caitlin: side.
DM: So itās less packed.
DM: But it is still a considerable distance to travel during panic and everything.
Caitlin: Yeah.
Caitlin: And say right now.
DM: That you 30.
Caitlin: So youāre going to be running from there.
Shain: Iām if I may, can I like temporal map one of the guards to see where we like I have a general
DM: Yeah.
Shain: location where heās going as heās running by and also Iāll hang on to like Aaron Dillās shoulder
DM: Okay.
Shain: give me one second just keep me from you know passing on out on the ground and Iāll send like
Shain: a crow okay sure Iāll accept it the crow will go up and start just going towards where theyāre going
Shain: I guess
DM: Okay. So youāre sending the crow along with the guards as well as placing your temporal thingy on him just to know kind of where he is.
Shain: yeah yes
DM: Gotcha.
DM: As you know, you kind of follow him.
Shain: you
DM: Of course, you might as somewhat slow, like I said, trying to get through the city with it being so packed is pretty difficult.
Shain: mm-hmm
Shain: yeah
DM: But he passes by you and he is heading to this guard post here.
Shain: mature
DM: It is bustling in an out from what you can tell.
DM: There is a very large increase of guards that have shown up.
DM: Not all of them are in a full proper uniform.
DM: So itās very clear that these are either reserves or at minimum volunteers, not necessarily regular guards.
Shain: Do I hear, if I get the crow really close, do I hear any conversation between them?
DM: Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Shain: Yeah, I mean, like the tower in terms of like the, in terms of the tower, are we talking
DM: How close would you be getting?
DM: Keep mind these alarm bells are going to be pretty loud, especially with you being right at a guard tower.
DM: So you have to get pretty close to here.
Shain: like looks like a prison tower? Okay, okay, okay. This is that ground level. This is that
DM: Weāre talking like.
DM: Itās like tingles, cat tingles.
DM: Itās a big like cylinder essentially with a big bell on.
Shain: ground level right now where that you were the big place. Okay, then I would have it probably
DM: Yes.
Shain: like, I donāt see any problem. Theyāre probably not even focused on me. This is all the commotion.
Shain: Iāll have the crow just kind of sit down next to them, not like literally next to them,
DM: Yeah, there shouldnāt be a problem.
Shain: like itās too close enough.
DM: As you kind of strain to over here, whatās happening?
DM: Apparently, these guards are kind of frantically talking to each other.
DM: Itās kind of difficult to decipher exactly what one guard is saying versus the other guards versus everything else.
Shain: Mhm.
DM: But you do make out one of them fairly saying the water he spotted something.
Shain: The watcher.
DM: Itās in the distance.
Shain: Any do.
DM: But thatās all you can really make out before he pulls somebody else and runs.
Shain: No direction.
DM: He actually is running in a direction. Heās running to the East gate.
Shain: Okay.
Shain: Iām gonna like, as I say this, Iām still in like the vision, so Iām still hanging onto
Shain: Arandel and Iāll say, seems like thereās something the watchers spotted something east of us.
Shain: I donāt know what it is, but itās got the guards in a rally.
Shain: Maybe, I only think of forces maybe.
Shain: Theyāre not, were they fully armored or no?
Shain: Like, were they preparing for battle?
Shain: Oh no!
DM: They were definitely preparing for battle. Most notably, they werenāt drawing swords, but instead spears.
Shain: I-oh no, I think I connected it.
DM: Pretty much everybody was grabbing spears.
Shain: Butter, you were talking to me earlier.
Shain: You said, oh, and I mean, you were like, I mean a connection point about X, Y and Z that I didnāt realize.
DM: I didnāt say nothing. I didnāt say nothing.
Shain: Really, okay.
DM: Iāve literally never spoken in my life.
Shain: Alright, Iām not saying nothing.
Caitlin: Do I catch any of the same information from the guards or no, am I getting a different
Caitlin: spiel where I am in town?
DM: Well, because youāre kind of on the outside.
DM: So youāre only seeing people that are either completely fleeing for people.
Caitlin: Well Iām not trying to get from A to B. Iām cutting through.
DM: I get that.
Caitlin: Am I not?
DM: What Iām saying is from where you are up to here, youāre going to be on the outside of the wall.
Caitlin: Oh, okay, okay, I forgot to run theā¦
DM: Youāre going to be kind of on the outside.
Caitlin: Iām going to go back to the meeting spot.
Shain: Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, I
DM: That being said, you do kind of get the sense that people are fleeing.
DM: Like they are just getting that theyāre getting as far as they can away from the city as quickly as they.
DM: But thereās no words actually being uttered.
DM: People are just screaming and running.
DM: You could try to flag one down, try and stop them and ask questions if you wanted.
DM: But of course that would delay your arrival at your destination.
DM: There are some people also going towards the city people that are kind of they have the.
Shain: ām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say,
Caitlin: I donāt want you to.
DM: Essentially a unbuttoned uniform. They just kind of thrown over their clothes.
DM: Like I said, probably reserve for retired or something like that.
DM: Yeah.
Caitlin: I see any guards, like normal dress cards.
Caitlin: I am.
DM: Like proper dressed up guards.
Caitlin: Yes.
Caitlin: Just.
DM: Like fully dressed arts now.
Caitlin: Just reserve.
DM: Yes, reserved as youāre running.
Caitlin: Okay, Iāll flag down. I will if I flag somebody down and they donāt respond, Iāll physically grab them and stop them.
DM: You do see thereās plenty along the walls and running on the walls, but not on the monitor.
Shain: Iām just gonna say Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām just gonna say, Iām a loser.
Caitlin: Like what are the reserve guards? Somebody who actually knows what the fuckās going on? Or at least a few degree?
DM: Like just a regular civilian.
DM: Well, youāre going to have to like essentially physically stop them.
DM: You kind of try to stop one or two that you see and they theyāre not giving you the time of day at all.
DM: They take a glance at you. They look for any type of insignia and they realize you are not another guard.
Caitlin: Okay, I mean like I said, I will physically stop one of them. Iām fucking grab the fuck her shoulders and like fucking manhandle them. Iām like literally if thereās a reserve guard, Iām just going to like grab them on the shoulders and spin the fuck around the face me at this point and just what the hell is going on here? Whereās everybody going?
Shain: Gonna try to break the
DM: You donāt know anything. They just run.
DM: Right past.
DM: So youāll have to stop.
DM: I donāt know anything at the moment.
Caitlin: Alright, get on your way, dipshit. Alright, yeah, okay, Iāll run to a tower of them if thereās a nearest, Iām not crabbing his ass.
DM: Itās where Iām going to figure out the last time these alarm bells.
Shain: structure.
Shain: nope
DM: I would we have to go.
Shain: no
DM: You look like you can fight. Go to the nearest tower.
Shain: ukan
Caitlin: Sure, Iāll go nearer in your tower, Iāll start going to your sign on.
DM: And your terror.
Shain: Please tell me this is all.
Caitlin: Sure.
DM: So weāll say that you kind of found some body about here. So youāre heading to this tower here.
DM: But yeah. So weāll go back to.
Caitlin: Really quick, for really really quickly, do I have any way to communicate with the rest of the party? Do we have any like sending stones or anything like that? I can communicate with them.
Shain: Everyone.
Shain: Does he Andrew.
DM: Erdogan was here.
DM: So yeah, Erdogan probably be arriving at about now.
DM: Because like I said, where are these towers are normally thereās a gate.
DM: So heās running against traffic.
Shain: I do have a thing.
DM: You do not have an orb of zoom because youāre new to the party.
Shain: But I am.
Caitlin: Okay. Well, I just mean I just mean any way to communicate sending, like I thought me and do I have sending stones at some point? Iām like, Iām just thinking of being there.
Shain: I have a way of understanding.
DM: And unfortunately because youāre on your own.
Caitlin: No, Iām like Iām just thinking of being there, but I want to communicate with the rest of the party because I want to figure out where everybody else is at.
DM: No, you are trapped.
DM: Dragon, you did give Caitlin a sending stone because you didnāt trust her enough with the orb of zoom.
DM: So instead you just gave me.
DM: Iām 96.3% positive.
Caitlin: Thatās thereās no chance in hell this dumb ass motherfucker.
Shain: You can.
Shain: I was just like.
Caitlin: This dumb ass murder part, remind me to get around the next time I see him.
DM: Unfortunately, the sending stone does not seem to connect.
Shain: Sorry.
Shain: There are no.
Caitlin: Oh, yeah, let me grab the sending stone and try and communicate with you then, dragon. Is that whatās my plan?
Shain: Youāre sending.
DM: Unfortunately, the sending stone you have dialed is out of service.
Shain: Is it connected to the right operator?
Aragorn: My exās phone number is on my phone time to break it.
Shain: Try again.
Caitlin: Can I send a message to dragon then if I have a sending stone? No, what do I get? Isnāt it like 30 words 15 words? What is it? 25?
Shain: Iām.
DM: No, Iām just going to get you.
DM: Iām pretty sure.
Shain: 25.
Caitlin: Just widespread panic. Where are you? Do you know whatās going on trying to find my way to a guyās post now?
DM: Thank you.
Shain: Are going used.
Shain: East.
Caitlin: Iām not sure if soldiers have spears ring any bells in my head. I may have a history check anything thatās like, oh, that they would need spears as opposed to anything else.
DM: Well, youāre a paladin so you would know this and from.
DM: From everything that you would know.
DM: Generally, spears are only used against very large creatures.
DM: Things like gigantic bears, a torasque.
Shain: Oh.
DM: Any Lord anything flying anything along those lines that you know would not generally you want the slice,
DM: but youāre just trying to weaken slowly, which really isnāt enough.
Caitlin: I want to change course and go to the center of biggest guards tower or something in the center of the city and trying to meet up with the wagon and flux.
Shain: the
DM: Thatās what you use a spear for.
DM: The fact that everybodyās grabbing spears implies that itās not a invasion from another military or bandits as that would be a mix of spears swords.
DM: The fact that it is purely spears definitely applies some type of creature.
Caitlin: Iāll just head straight east then Iāll just head to east.
Shain: Yeah, I mean, Iām still scouting.
DM: Yes.
Shain: Iām still scouting, but I can use a dozing anyway, so.
DM: Iām 96% sure it is just you.
Caitlin: Itās just itās just missed the step. Itās just a refliver musty step is exactly how it works.
DM: Iām more than willing to let you home brew it if you use two charges to teleport you and the creature of the same size.
Shain: Well, we were looking for the dragon, but we found the dragon under the teetode.
DM: You have a total of four uses so you can use it twice if you bring you in.
Shain: One position is expected.
Shain: So take a ееundo effect on the palm?
Shain: Aosana.
Caitlin: Thank you.
DM: That would definitely be things up.
Shain: The lord can level up the game with any characters
Shain: Well, Iām still I can walk like I just have a hand on you. You just have to guide me. You know blind people do this every day, right?
DM: You just jump across like okay, shame jump you turn around heās just.
Shain: Oh, I canāt hear you dead.
Shain: Ah, he said.
Caitlin: Itās always just dead that thatās how shame goes like in collapses in a little of a street somewhere.
Shain: And well, you know, itās terrible if I did the whole city would be gone.
DM: Just getās trampled.
Shain: The whole the campaign would end right here. All of our characters.
Caitlin: Flex is sleeping I take the Rubikās cube.
Shain: Oh my God.
DM: Okay, I back to plot.
Shain: Andrew.
Shain: Itās gotta be Andrew. Let Andrew do a thing.
DM: So Andrew.
Shain: Nice.
DM: I did.
DM: You arrive at the guard tower.
DM: Like I said, you were had to push through many people to get there because everybodyās fleeing out the gates.
DM: But you finally get there and thereās.
DM: Captain kill more.
DM: The man who showed up at your door is actually take has taken charge at the scar.
DM: Heās issuing demands and directions for everybody to go to whole nine yards.
DM: Heās not necessarily speaking necessarily.
DM: Itās more just like people are coming up get instructions and heās immediately issuing.
DM: Theyāre orders.
Shain: You
DM: Theyāre going to be on the front line.
DM: Just to paint the picture.
Caitlin: I like Jack.
DM: There are people that are dedicated to literally going to the army just bring out pallets full of spears.
DM: Iām not going to be able to do that.
DM: But yeah, all right, so you just.
DM: You just grab it in your head and east.
DM: All right.
Shain: I will I will accept my bird. I accept my bridge.
DM: So it makes all of you that are heading east.
DM: Just to make sure are you going to do the going to the roof and running thing or now.
DM: Okay, where are doing that.
Shain: I canāt hear you but regardless. I was going to anyway. So all right. So did you catch what I was said?
DM: So,
Shain: Yeah, I was here.
Shain: Iāll look up and Iām like, how are we going to do that?
DM: itās just.
Shain: Oh my God.
DM: Seiken, like a blessing of the shadow queen, the way that itās like is described.
DM: And then you just imagine that youāre just like, letās go.
DM: Everything fades to black for a second.
DM: You just appear on the roof.
Shain: What kind of transmit effect was that?
Shain: Wait. Oh, yeah, thatās right. You can do that.
Aragorn: Thatās all you.
DM: All right.
Aragorn: All right.
Shain: Go on out the field.
DM: So we got.
Aragorn: Letās see what weāve got.
Shain: Well.
DM: We got.
Aragorn: Come on.
DM: At your again and flux heading to the east on top of roofs.
Shain: Yo.
Aerendyl: Class of woman struggling.
DM: Hey, Lin struggling to get east pushing through people on the outside of the walls.
Shain: Go.
DM: And we got.
Caitlin: Hey, hey, dragon.
DM: Error going.
DM: I presume running on top of the walls following the flow of traffic on top of the walls.
Aragorn: Iām like Iām like making certain like civilians clear through.
Caitlin: Dragon, please, cool love of God.
Aragorn: So we can like a straight shot and all that.
DM: Well, if youāre going on top of the walls, then itās just other guards that are all running the same direction.
Aragorn: All that good stuff.
DM: Fantastic.
DM: Then that would be probably.
DM: Letās see, because youād be here.
DM: So, er, going.
DM: You would be the first to arrive.
DM: As you kind of get closer.
Aragorn: Oh.
DM: And you can kind of get the full sense of whatās happening.
DM: There are about.
DM: Right on top of this is that, and that they are going to.
Shain: Huh?
Aragorn: What I was meant to be controlling.
Shain: Real.
DM: Yp, 609 malls and that goes down to here on the east.
DM: So, it wonāt hold strong investment.
DM: And so thatās because this is just not athe position, right.
DM: I mean, we have.
DM: A conveyor.
DM: It got blocked.
DM: Weāll go.
DM: But, so you want to search.
DM: youāre kind of a little too far away to properly see,
Aragorn: Um, they say go to.
DM: because the wall is packed.
Aragorn: They say go to the front lines.
Aragorn: Iām going to the front lines anyway to get off this wall and go to the front lines.
Shain: You
Caitlin: Iām warning.
DM: As you kind of like try to squeeze through people
DM: to get down to the stairs to go down
DM: and get to the front lines, eventually you can.
Caitlin: We got the way for it.
Aragorn: Right.
DM: Andā¦
Aragorn: I donāt mind.
DM: Wait a second.
Aragorn: Iām like, wait, fuck ass, Gerald.
DM: Whatās up, Latina?
Aragorn: Itās what you do.
DM: At the bottom of the stairs, there is,
DM: there is a man in full uniform that is standing
DM: and heās kind of like,
DM: directed towards the come down the stairs.
DM: Judging by the amount of stars he has,
DM: out of this, whatever itās called.
DM: You are pretty sure heās a major.
DM: He kind of notices you and then sees the people behind him.
Aragorn: Oh.
DM: And he says, fun lines, eh?
DM: Thereās no way you get to the actual front lines.
Aragorn: Weāll do.
DM: Just joining those people right there, follow them, form in line.
DM: As you kind of just follow.
Aragorn: Follow.
Aragorn: What?
DM: Essentially, you kind of follow and youāre deployed along this road here.
Shain: Iāll do the call.
DM: Just kind of in a straight line type thing.
DM: And as you finally stop, you hear gossip, essentially, of the soldiers around you.
DM: And what they think is happening.
DM: Most of them seem very uninformed.
DM: One of them actually believes that this is a drill.
DM: The poor fool.
Aragorn: Oh, look at the poor man.
Shain: Itās gotta be a drill.
DM: He is relatively near you. Heās like three people down.
Aragorn: Is he nearly, is he nearly, is he nearly?
Aragorn: Does he have any stars?
Aragorn: Is he any stars?
DM: Itās pretty difficult to see him. Heās in front of you.
DM: So you canāt really see the amount of.
DM: Itās nice he has.
DM: But he is in full uniform. So heās not one of the reserve members.
Aragorn: Um, just because you think itās a drill doesnāt mean you should be taking this anymore less seriously.
Shain: Oh.
DM: He kind of turns around and prepares to say something.
DM: But whatever he sees that you have two stars.
DM: And he has a puny one line.
DM: I heās an insom. He says, ah.
Shain: Wow.
DM: Yes, sir. It turns right back around.
DM: But you know, you hear a lot of different theories.
DM: The main predominant one is that they believe that a army is invading from.
Shain: Itād be price for us again.
Shain: Youāre going to.
DM: It seems unlikely to you, but it is the predominant theory.
DM: Dragon, at about this time, you would arrive to the guard post the east.
DM: Not necessarily the full guard post is minded up on the ball.
DM: But you will have a view.
DM: Youāre at the wall essentially on top of the house.
DM: Now, technically, you could teleport up to the wall up to the guard post if you wanted to.
DM: Itās only about 30-ish feet up so you can easily teleport there with your friend.
DM: Yes, sir.
Shain: Oh, Lord.
DM: Yes, I do remember it.
DM: I remember itās still a prototype.
Shain: I guess you brought the stone.
DM: You did.
DM: Mm-hmm.
Shain: What are you thinking Eric?
Shain: Five minutes.
Shain: Fine. Iāll give you five minutes too.
DM: So, as you try, it seems just a little bit too big to fit in the slot.
DM: But you, in your impatience, just kind of pushes a little harder.
DM: And the rock just immediately fixes itself and shrinks in size the fit right in the slot.
DM: It does do that.
Shain: Well, thatās good.
Shain: They fly now.
Shain: Wow. This crystal is really.
Shain: Itās really.
DM: You now have a theoretically functional prototype for your grappling.
Aerendyl: Iām not using it using it.
Aerendyl: Iām just curious to see if my idea worked.
Aerendyl: So I want to see if I can fire it to the wall.
DM: All right.
Aragorn: Want to see how yellow it is outside?
Shain: Thatās a yellow.
Aragorn: Looks like fucking Mexico.
Aerendyl: I didnāt know you were a border crosser.
DM: As you attempt to shoot it, it does successfully shoot out.
Aragorn: No, Iām in breaking bad.
Shain: Red logo.
Aerendyl: You
DM: Itās not the full strength that youāre expecting or wanting as it just kind of hit a fleet pops out.
Aerendyl: Got you.
Aerendyl: Okay now you see that this is fun because itās a prototype.
DM: Essentially, yes.
DM: It does exactly as you designed it.
Shain: Okay, congratulations. It looks like youāre working of what you want me to fly over with
Aerendyl: I can fix that but it doesnāt retract.
Aerendyl: Put it in that chip back in the bag.
Aerendyl: Okay Shane are you ready?
Shain: the freaking grappling hook that maybe or maybe it wonāt work. Okay.
Aerendyl: No no.
Aerendyl: Give me a handshake.
Shain: Yeah. Okay, Iām not gonna lie, Aaron, your teleport is a lot different than the one I experienced.
Aerendyl: Tell the words.
Aerendyl: Itās not fun to do.
DM: I can imagine Iām so emphatically like a handshake.
DM: It just everything goes black.
DM: So, let me ask before you teleport, you could reach the very top of the wall.
DM: And you could find that even you are where that usually this type of place a guard tower, youāre not really just supposed to be there as a civilian.
Shain: Oh, oh hi. Weāre up really high arenāt we?
DM: Alternatively, you could try to teleport into a room.
Aerendyl: Yeah.
DM: There are some like definitely like rooms along the walls, especially at the scar tower that have windows cut out that you can see into.
DM: This would be approximately approximately like 40 feet off the ground total.
Shain: Okay, okay, donāt hurt.
DM: Are those rooms?
Aerendyl: So is this like a tack on Titan style where thereās like the big wall,
Shain: It was you who stepped on the line, it was you who hit that line.
Shain: éåęÆčŖ°?
Aerendyl: guard post and then like the house is underneath.
DM: Essentially, yes.
Aerendyl: And where are the guards going to?
Shain: Iām trying to figure it out and throw it, but I canāt hold
DM: All of the guards are going directly to where you have gone. So to the eastmost gate.
Aerendyl: Just to that wall?
Aerendyl: Okay.
DM: Well, to be clear, itās actually, so itās this one right here.
Shain: it.
Aerendyl: So and theyāre theyāre like getting onto the wall.
DM: This is where everybodyās going to and that this building right here is where you are.
Shain: it
Aerendyl: So weāre here and.
DM: So you can teleport up to the wall or you could try to teleport into the into the guard tower.
Shain: in
Aerendyl: Um.
DM: Because the guard towers are literally towers that go up higher than the normal wall.
Aerendyl: Shane do you have any form of transportation via flying?
Shain: always
Caitlin: What?
Aerendyl: Oh so you can teleport.
DM: Turns it up a terrible.
Aerendyl: Oh I forgot you do that.
Shain: teleport yes and also if I really need to yeah yeah yeah I donāt plan to
Aragorn: I would highly advise not changing into a teradactyl as thereās front lines of guards.
Aerendyl: I was going to say I could go up top.
Aerendyl: Can I get to the roof of the guard tower?
Shain: yeah
DM: Yeah, you probably the very roof would be difficult.
Shain: can I throw him up can I can I do like a little like Iāll just cut my hand
Aerendyl: Can I jump and teleport to getting range?
DM: If you jump, youād be in range to grab the top to pull yourself up.
Aerendyl: Iām trying to be right.
Shain: together oh cut my hands together like low Iām like Iām not that strong but just
Shain: yep one of those and just up make like a strength
DM: Letās go.
Shain: action like like a
Aerendyl: I was going to say I could get up there, get some advantage and then like you can stay in the back and decide where you want to go whenever something happens.
DM: Thanks for watching.
Aerendyl: So that we donāt both get maybe caught by guards.
Shain: let me know yeah well at this point theyāre probably less concerned about us and more
Shain: with the commotion so yeah no here I cut my hands all right listen Iām weak fragile way
Aerendyl: Iām going to I want to get it there.
Aerendyl: Very to be the top.
Shain: about 120 pounds and about 20 I donāt remember the last birthday because itās been like 13
Shain: freaking years anyways you know itās gonna be harder for you to get up there and I rather
Aerendyl: I mean you want me to lose some pounds.
DM: All right, Iām going to need a acrobatic check from you dragon and a shrink check from you.
Aerendyl: I can just.
Shain: you be both hands all right three two one
Aerendyl: Thatās true.
Aerendyl: I jump and I missed it.
Aerendyl: I fucking use the Raven Queen teleport.
Aerendyl: I myself.
DM: Iām going to give you a few blocks.
Shain: who good news 16 baby
Aerendyl: You said athletics.
DM: Pretty please.
Aerendyl: That my friend is a 23 base but I can make it a 28 for extra pizzazz.
Shain: oh yeah
DM: Yes.
DM: Okay, itās up to you.
Aerendyl: 28.
Aerendyl: Yeah no, never comment.
DM: Letās just throw away all of our.
DM: Okay, 23.
Aerendyl: 23.
Aerendyl: I shouldnāt fail the 23.
Shain: Hey, by the way, if you would like, Iām gonna call this up if you like you could put a hand out my fill to reach you
DM: No, no, you definitely succeed as you kind of launched and you teleport right on you.
DM: And youāre basically dangling from the top of this guard tower as you pull yourself up.
Aerendyl: Iām going to turn around and just give Shayna.
DM: Now for the record.
Aerendyl: I donāt think thatās going to work.
Shain: I have 30 feet bonus my freebie bonus action missed step a day havenāt yet
Aerendyl: Iām going to turn around and just.
Shain: Just saying do you need do you need me up there do you need me up here okay
DM: Okay, for the record, this is this is a what a relatively regular like sheeling.
DM: Whatever, where it kind of like goes up to a point, there is a window that is built into this.
Shain: you
DM: So like there is a room up there.
Shain: Yeah
DM: As you kind of pull yourself up, there is no light in that room.
DM: But as you kind of crawl in completely, your ears kind of start to ring as this is where the bells are.
Shain: just walking
DM: However, nobody is actually swinging them or actually at the location.
DM: Itās a long rope system that goes all the way down and somebodyās pulling on the ropes.
Aerendyl: And I climb up top onto the actual roof of where the bell tower is.
DM: You totally can.
Aerendyl: I donāt know if there is.
Aerendyl: Is there a roof?
DM: Like thereās not like a flat roof, but you can climb all the way up to kind of like where the point is.
Aerendyl: I want to climb up there.
Aerendyl: Looks like that.
Aerendyl: Yeah, I want to get up there.
Shain: that
Aerendyl: Make sure my hood is on.
Aerendyl: And I want to check the surroundings of where these guards might be preparing.
Aerendyl: Now Iām more like ninja batman.
DM: As you crawl all the way up to the top and you kind of look down, you see basically the same type of thing.
Shain: And over to the left, you see a single white woman and covered our
DM: So youāre right here at this guard tower and you see all within this area here are just, you know, guards in different positions, information, all with spears towards the front.
Aerendyl: problem.
DM: There are a lot of the guys appear to be kind of kneeling on the ground, but youāre not sure if thatās a formation or if theyāre doing that for grass to deserve instead.
Aerendyl: Hmm.
Aerendyl: My
Shain: camera pushing through a crowd of children. Yeah, I knew.
DM: You do see that exactly pushing down this road here.
Aerendyl: I knew she was a bitch, but not like that.
DM: Just kind of making their way you recognize this individual to be Caitlin as she kind of body slams a child turns around and apologizes and continues running.
Shain: Right, Um, zip up.
Shain: Yeah, yeah, your
Shain: microphone here but I donāt care if I we like watching it,
Shain: I tune it also and Iā¦!
Shain: Ba-ba-ba style trademark!ā
DM: But yeah, as you kind of like look back at the city, the city is basically complete disarray the amount of people that are fleeing and pushing through.
Shain: My alphģ Sherri San Leķ
Shain: you
DM: At the current rate, if you were to estimate, youāre looking at probably a good hour to two before driving in begins to slow down just because thereās so many factors in most shops that weāve been converted to small little places with rest.
Aerendyl: Do I see the reason why the guards have assembled?
DM: So theyāre just rushing out into the streets trying to make their way and itās just itās a very slow process.
DM: Not as far as you can tell, but as you are, you know, continuing to just kind of look out, you do finally here and your ears are finally happy the bells stop.
DM: Not necessarily because the thread is over, but because there was no point continuing the bells to be ringing as the guards are definitely still information and still moving to.
Aerendyl: Iām just going to stay perched up here and Iām just going to message to Flux saying like, Iām all good.
Shain: wonāt have consultations tomorrow itās
DM: Just to be completely clear, the kind of area that you can climb into in the actual tower, there are thereās a ladder down so if you wanted to try to get down there to try and collect information that isnāt.
Shain: crucial to mark the time.
Aerendyl: Iām going to do some reconnaissance up here.
DM: But itās just kind of whatever you want.
Aerendyl: Iām just going to cast invisibility and then go down the ladder.
Shain: Well, what did I get to do?
DM: As you kind of go down, you find yourself kind of smack dab in what is essentially a makeshift kind of war room as there are really what appeared to be high level people in the military kind of around a long table.
Aerendyl: Iām just going to perch up and just be like, I will listen to these guys.
Shain: Well, oh no.
Shain: Oh no.
DM: Theyāre all relatively old.
Aerendyl: Hot.
DM: One man he is one of the younger ones, he is here as it completely great out yet.
DM: So he has kind of a dark brown hair thatās begun to white.
Aerendyl: Damn.
Shain: You
DM: Heās kind of clean shaven so no beard or anything, but he is as the watch reports are confirmed.
DM: Itās back.
DM: Weāve already tried to be on to evacuate, but what can I be anywhere near done?
Aerendyl: Itās the fucking dragon. Itās the fucking dragon, isnāt it? Please be the dragon.
DM: Heās a far older man at the end of the table.
DM: Heās fully wider like heās actually begun to like receding hairline, but he itās very clearly that he tried to like make up for it with his hairstyle.
DM: He failed. Itās so obvious, but nobody wants the.
Aerendyl: So heās the opposite of the Butler from Overlord.
DM: Exactly, exactly.
DM: Heās visibly upset as he slams on the desk and anger.
DM: Just pure confusion in his voice. Why is he back?
Aerendyl: Cheat.
DM: Heās not here anymore. We donāt even have our defender.
DM: Heās kind of other people around, kind of say basically the same type of stuff that they donāt think that they could win and that all they can hope for is the by time.
Aerendyl: Plus ease.
DM: Could you be the dragon?
DM: If it is a dragon that you presume it is.
Aerendyl: Hey dragon, mystical creature. Look at this.
DM: As you continue to listen, the the the younger one kind of speaks again.
DM: According to estimates, itāll be here within 10 minutes.
DM: Donāt stand a chance.
Shain: The dragon
Aerendyl: What will be here?
DM: Are you going to say, are you going to try to be like, what are we are?
DM: Are you actually trying that?
DM: Yes.
DM: I think I go, how strail is she?
DM: Who said that?
DM: I think she just kind of looks around at all.
Aerendyl: Wait.
DM: None of them like admit to saying it, but itās very clear if they donāt have time to waste to try and figure out who said it.
DM: It kind of like this a lot.
DM: So they just kind of continue, you know, discussing.
DM: Pigeon Strallo, by the way, you would know that name.
Aerendyl: I would know that name.
DM: Yes, you would as every nation in the world wouldnāt know of one of the last four great dragons.
DM: It was responsible for the fall of gondor.
DM: And apparently itās back.
Aerendyl: Okay, so Iām going to climb with the ladder.
DM: Yeah.
Shain: Iām just sitting on the roof and I wonder whatās going on.
Aerendyl: There seems to be a great dragon on its way.
Shain: My eyes bug out and I sit down.
Shain: And I, can I holler up?
Shain: Is this that dragon that people were talking about?
Aerendyl: Iām inside the thing. Do I see his lips moving with the same words?
Shain: The story with the guy who was like, Iām gonna kill you.
Shain: Is this not what youāre wanting?
DM: You can make out this.
Shain: Is this lĆŖn for me and his past.
DM: Back.
DM: But you kind of just try and read the lips and youāre like really confused about a femur.
Shain: Reveal for jetķ“ģ.
Shain: Is this that ėėlying with me?
Aerendyl: Iām going to go down the ladder.
Shain: Is this that happening to you?
DM: Excuse me.
Shain: I like him. Elf it drag on.
DM: Before we continue this stupidity, are you telling me Shane doesnāt have message?
Shain: No, because I havenāt thought anything
Shain: Sounds like me, unafraid ŠµŃŠ»Šø you donāt ever get at it.
DM: The orb of zoom or something stone?
Shain: Itās uhh balls.
Shain: They cry, they shout.
Aerendyl: Iām going to do a sending stone to Flux saying that.
Shain: But thereās nothing good here.
DM: Weāre not telling Andrew.
Shain: Tell me something.
Shain: You better find out real soon.
DM: Yes, yes you do.
Shain: Soldiers!
Shain: Wow.
Aerendyl: And then do I have line of sight with Caitlin still trying to fucking archaic.
DM: So youāre going to look like an crazy person to get people to get out your way, type thing.
Aerendyl: I will.
DM: Gotcha, gotcha.
Aerendyl: Iām going to go back down the ladder.
DM: So you just turn and all you see is a crazy person clad in white with a flaming sword just running through people swinging it back and forth.
Aragorn: Weāre not speaking terms.
DM: Are you are you listening back in on the war plans?
Aerendyl: Yeah, yeah, Iām going to come.
DM: I was like it to you to just discuss things.
DM: By the way, anybody if you are if you want to do something feel free to interrupt me and tell me whatās what.
Shain: What?
DM: Oh.
Shain: Ah in the middle.
Aerendyl: Itās my bag of holding.
DM: The fact that you think that matters is funny.
DM: Is there a specific reason?
DM: Yeah, and you think that youāre just bored of presence just magically.
Shain: kilobits.
DM: No.
Aerendyl: Bow down before me.
DM: If you talk to them, yes.
DM: Just appearing in their presence.
DM: I was like, Iām not.
DM: Exactly, exactly.
DM: Anyways, so dragon has like kind of continued talking.
Shain: Mmm.
DM: The general plan from what you can tell is that the dragon is.
DM: From what their records indicate me dragon is drawn to shiny objects and crowds of people.
DM: So their attempt was to get a large group of soldiers out to the east with shiny spears and group them up together hoping to get the dragonās attention.
Shain: Shane has gone.
Aerendyl: Iām climbing up the ladder.
Shain: Oh, okay.
DM: Keep in mind the orb of zoom is very it speaks on speaker phone.
DM: So whenever you just havenāt just chilling out in your pocket or whatever suddenly your pocket just start speaking ever going.
Aerendyl: Iām going to.
DM: Please tell me you donāt have a spear.
Shain: Everyone looks around.
DM: For the record.
Aerendyl: Iām going to whisper into the world.
Shain: Oh.
DM: We will see beyond the
Aerendyl: Iām going to go back down the ladder.
DM: them being used as fodder as around you people are dropping their spears and
DM: fleeing. Yes you do. Itās literally it goes like this you go because thereās like a
Aerendyl: Iām just.
DM: dragon coming.
DM: It does by the way, Valiant Attent Dragon nobodyās listening about seeing the dragon.
DM: Unfortunately you canāt see. You wouldnāt know this. So Caitlin would not know this but
DM: Error Gorn and Dragon do. This dragon is known for being completely black unless it is
Shain: Huge.
DM: breathing fire. You literally cannot see it and it is famous for only moving at night. Yes.
Aragorn: That fuckers invisible.
Aerendyl: I have a question.
Aragorn: Orbs and you gave Caitlin a sending some.
Aerendyl: Did I ever give Andrew a sending stone as well?
Aragorn: It was Caitlin or a resume gave me.
DM: Fantastic. So what are you going to do Error Gorn? Now that youāre in the middle of essentially a panic of soldiers.
Aragorn: So butter.
Shain: Really the troops.
Aragorn: Uh huh.
DM: Are you going to pull up my soldierās scrimmout type situation where we also flaying.
Aragorn: How many are in the front right now?
DM: Well like I said youāre kind of deployed along this road here. So there are people that are all the way down here as far as you can tell.
DM: The only people that are actually like disturbed are right around here and theyāre just trying to push through and get away because they were within ear shut up.
Aragorn: Okay.
DM: However, dragon you can see this and you would kind of be able to see this a little bit. Everyone as kind of people donāt really believe the other people that are freaking out about a dragon and being far away.
DM: So itās kind of like a just basically the one group around you and basically perfect circle are freaking out and trying to get away and everybody else is just like.
Aragorn: Right.
DM: Now your guard suck it up buttercup grab your spears.
DM: Youāre kind of on the street so yeah there thereād be like stuff around specifically like.
Aragorn: Iām a Iām a standup on like a is there like any box or anything that gets me height?
DM: So off kind of to the to the left a little bit thereās a band in part.
DM: Just kind of sitting on the ground you could definitely like try and stand on that. Thereās a hay bill on one end so itās kind of going to be dropped up.
DM: Fantastic fantastic world performance with advantage please.
Aragorn: Iām be like listen.
Aragorn: Like pay attention.
Aragorn: Pick up your damn fucking spears.
Aragorn: Get back in fucking line.
Aragorn: You chose this work.
Aragorn: Youāre gonna finish it.
Aragorn: Till death do you fucking part.
Aragorn: Woohoo.
DM: Hmm.
Aragorn: Cause Iām like that bitch.
Shain: That the word of it being Christ, the Lars and Shane, loving dragons.
Aragorn: You said performance.
DM: Say that again.
Shain: Shane, hearing that as Christ, the Lars, after knowing itās a dragon, wants to go speak with him.
DM: All right.
Shain: So heās going to the front lines.
Aragorn: Hey guy.
DM: Off to the front lines you go.
Aragorn: Bro that I wrote I wrote this.
DM: Youāre getting, youāre going through pretty quick.
DM: So you were kind of originally over here.
DM: I should have clarified.
DM: Are you going to guard poster or are you going to wear the soldiers?
DM: In that case, you would be approaching at right about now.
DM: Yeah, like kind of your eat.
Aragorn: I wrote the 16.
DM: You were pushing through here.
DM: So basically after.
DM: After this line here, thereās no more people in it.
DM: Youāre going to be in the middle of the line.
DM: So youāre, you are like right.
DM: Right here.
DM: So youāre like almost there.
DM: What.
Aragorn: Iām I wrote the 16.
DM: With a 16.
DM: You get a lot of, you know, who looks.
DM: Most of them want to say something.
DM: But weāre most of them are cadets.
DM: And do not have the authority to speak to you.
DM: And I think other than a yes or.
DM: As such, they all kind of.
DM: Sadly pick up their, their, their.
DM: Spears and just kind of shakeily hold them as they wait there and pending.
Aragorn: Iām like Iām like Iām like Iām like Iām like Iām like Iām like talking groups like do this for your family.
DM: Are you going for like a motivational speech?
Aragorn: For your children or for your friends.
Aragorn: This is for you.
DM: Or is the soldier scream out type situation?
Aragorn: Itās all germs.
DM: Is this a secondary speech or is this the same one as the first one?
Aragorn: No, this is just me like kind of going through the groups like like the fucking we need for like attention.
DM: Okay, all right.
DM: And then as youāre kind of giving out this thing, this speech.
DM: And then youāre going to be in the.
DM: As you are making it closer and closer.
DM: Eventually, you hear the voice of air and now being carried through the crowd.
DM: Just some wonderful words of wisdom.
DM: A couple idiotic sentences here and there.
DM: But you know, heās really get, heās really driving the point home.
DM: As you kind of make your way through the soldiers.
DM: Essentially, why the crap is there a person whoās not a guard here?
DM: Oh, wait, I donāt care.
DM: As you make your way here.
DM: Yes, sir.
Aragorn: Iām a fully ditched the spear at this point.
DM: Okay, all right.
Aragorn: Iām a Iām just like toss it to another guy.
Aragorn: I guess it doesnāt have one.
Aragorn: Iām pulling out.
Aragorn: Iām pulling out my fucking great sword.
Aragorn: My my silver white great sword extra extra shiny.
DM: Oh, yes, sir.
DM: Yes, you are as well to say you basically are right.
DM: Just about at the same time that he goes, look, am I men?
DM: I will fight.
DM: Oh,
DM: I donāt know.
DM: The soldiers begin to march forwards into the grasslands with a new found vigor prepared to lay down their lives.
DM: It is pretty dark.
Aragorn: Okay.
DM: There are a decent number of soldiers that have torches essentially.
DM: They are just like, and itās easy to stick with the group.
DM: But seeing anywhere outside of where the soldiers are is pretty difficult.
DM: There is a little bit of light so you can kind of see things at this point.
DM: Yes, sir.
Aragorn: This motherfucker silent dude.
DM: I think thatās the point.
DM: Yes, and weāll get to that when we get to that.
DM: You would certainly have ideas.
Aragorn: Is it so butter so butter if itās at night right would I recognize what this is hearing the word dragon.
DM: Previously, whatever the dragon attacked, you were safe at home.
DM: You werenāt really aware of most of what was happening other than that something was happening.
DM: And eventually, all everything that happened was you were screamed outside, soft spoke.
DM: Eventually, you heard loud stomping outside.
DM: And your house kind of caught on fire.
DM: Your mother gave you the box and told you to run.
Aragorn: Then Iām sheathing Iām sheathing the great sword.
Aragorn: Iām pulling out my fucking heritage sword.
Aragorn: Iām ripping that bitch out using that sucker.
DM: Yes, Nathaniel.
DM: Yeah, that would be perception.
DM: Yes, sir.
Aragorn: Pfft.
DM: I knew you were going to ask that.
DM: No, you do not.
DM: Anyways, Nathaniel has your kind of nearing the actual front lines of the front lines.
DM: Being about, you guys kind of made it all the way down into the grasslands at this point.
DM: You can hear often the distance just.
DM: Itās like.
DM: Give me five seconds and I can come up with a good descriptor.
DM: But essentially just a.
DM: A couple seconds later.
DM: Thatās the kind of thing as.
DM: As like air being moved in mass quantities.
DM: Now, your.
DM: Your logic would tell you that for the sound as youāre hearing it, it should be off in the distance.
DM: Not necessarily like super close.
DM: Like youāre not feeling the air.
DM: Itās not like youāre in a space.
DM: So if you were to guesstimate your, your thinking maybe 500 feet.
DM: You know, maybe more.
DM: Itās really hard to tell, but because itās not, itās not loud at this.
DM: Itās just enough that you can pick it up.
DM: But you can definitely hear something in the distance, but youāre pretty sure itās not walking.
DM: Itās definitely air distance.
DM: At this point, weāll cut back to the dragon and what did flux you since you now.
Aerendyl: He was sending me a message about the dragon and stuff.
Aerendyl: He was eating.
DM: What to do with the other hand.
DM: Essentially, a lot of back and forth of battle strategy plans for what to do.
DM: How much time they think they could actually walk back.
DM: Before a man kind of barges into the room.
DM: His eyes, they look kind of glossy.
DM: They have a kind of blue shine to them.
DM: So theyāve been enchanted.
DM: Heās got completely brown hair, but itās relatively short.
DM: Itās got a bit of a bit of a mustache there and to go T.
DM: As he kind of runs in, he says,
DM: initial projections were off.
DM: Heās going to be in two minutes.
DM: Thereās nothing we can do.
DM: Weāve not even begun to properly evacuate the main city.
DM: Even the people on the far out.
DM: Good.
DM: So Bayleyās gotten away.
DM: The kind of older gentleman, the guy thatās running, running the whole thing.
DM: He issues kind of an emergency order to turn that to put out all fires, turn out all lights throughout the entire city.
DM: But the only bits that are left are the soldiers in the front.
Aerendyl: No.
DM: According to what they are aware of, you have not been told any of that.
Aerendyl: You donāt know that that.
Aragorn: On fire.
Aragorn: Okay.
Aerendyl: Thereās no wall for the whole city.
DM: Thereās a wall, but because a lot of the houses are outside the wall and theyāre all falling into the instructions,
DM: you kind of pick it up pretty quickly.
Aerendyl: Oh yeah.
DM: As you kind of look back, you can see that the individual lights and fires are going out kind of one at a time.
DM: But definitely, itās very clear that the fires are going out.
DM: The body is putting them all out.
DM: Now, if I may ask, how much would you have actually looked into the fall of gondorf?
Aerendyl: Youāre going to go back down the ladder.
DM: Would you have tried to ignore it, like shove it as a bad memory, or would you have looked into it seeking revenge and looking it to all the details that you can?
Aragorn: Oh.
DM: Gotcha, and thatās not just metagaming because you want details.
DM: Well, I will say that as to everybody that you had asked, there were no confirmed sides of those dragons.
Aragorn: No. No. Yeah. Iām a curious motherfucker when I came to this.
DM: Some people had said that the dragon was gigantic, easily a hundred feet long, while others had said that it was a smaller dragon that just packed a punch.
Aragorn: Right.
DM: Youāre not entirely sure what the truth of the matter is, but you do know this is a very confirmed report and you kind of witnessed it, basically firsthand.
DM: His fire is more like lava as far as you know, as it doesnāt just go away, it spews out in kind of a gooey form.
DM: But you do also know that it is usually completely black.
DM: But whenever it begins to attack, it kind of begins to glow red as kind of streaks that go all the way up to its core.
Aerendyl: Iām going to go back down the ladder.
DM: So you should have some semblance of a warning before it attacks, if not very much, but at least a little bit.
DM: Yes.
Aerendyl: I have a serious question.
Aerendyl: If Iām not mistaken, I made those pocket nukes without the stones in them.
DM: Well, youāre not really sure of the size of the dragon.
Aerendyl: If worse comes to worse.
Aerendyl: Iām not mistaken.
Aerendyl: How big were those craters compared to where the dragon could possibly weigh?
DM: As you are, you also kind of as the son of the military leader, the last row, you have unconfirmed reports of the different size dragon.
DM: You would probably assume that itās kind of mid sized, so maybe about 60 feet long give or take for a great dragon.
DM: So youāre not, like I said, youāre not really sure, but you do have enough for a dragon thatās hot probably to hit it twice in a long state.
DM: Well, the soldiers have marched away, so theyāre like down here in the grasslands at this point.
Aerendyl: Letās say the dragon landed.
DM: Well, do just do to the amount that you have like great because you only prepared a little bit in the sense of like you were wanting to test it out.
DM: And you just have a chance.
DM: Youād be able to create a relatively big one, maybe from here to here.
DM: Maybe give or take 80 feet diameter, but youāre not possible.
DM: Even if you tried to do like the whole thing, you, if you put it all into one thing, the most you probably get is about there is your diameter.
DM: Keep in mind, itās not three feet. Itās just the rest of us.
Aerendyl: I have something that will at least do damage if I need it to.
DM: That you do.
Aerendyl: Thatās all I wanted to confirm.
DM: Yes, thank you.
DM: Thank you.
Aragorn: Oh, Iām fully aware.
Aragorn: Yep.
Aragorn: Okay.
Aerendyl: Oh.
DM: Okay. Now, Iām going to have to read up on daylight because I do not remember the wording of the spell or exactly what it does.
DM: Thatās 60 foot radius. Okay.
DM: Well, you definitely, how long is it last Holy crap?
DM: You, my friend.
DM: You and my friend begin to radiate with light.
DM: You.
DM: As this kind of who she gets louder and louder, you can kind of make out a, an outline and in the distance.
DM: Itās really hard to get an exact like completely, you see it clearly, but because the dragon is completely black and thereās a little bit of moonlight.
DM: You can kind of make an outline and itās.
DM: Itās really large.
DM: Kind of.
Aerendyl: I have not seen it yet.
DM: Yeah, heās inside. Flux. What did you say you were doing again?
Aerendyl: He said he was going to be right back.
DM: I thought he said he was going to the front lines. Okay, I just wanted to make sure. Okay.
Aerendyl: Iām not mistaken.
DM: So heās making his way to the front lines. Would you want to do?
DM: All right. All right. So weāre doing months to a flame strategy.
Aragorn: So as I see Nate doing this, Iām grabbing a couple of torches and Iām making bigger fires.
DM: Dragon, as you are, as youāre listening in on the these strategy, strategic talks.
Aragorn: Oh, her two and moss to a fucking flame.
DM: One of them kind of looks out the window and says.
DM: We have a noble sacrifice.
DM: It kind of looks out you kind of moves to see out the window. You see a right light.
DM: Oh, yeah.
DM: So, but yeah.
DM: Yeah, you know, you kind of points out and you know, acknowledge is a noble sacrifice.
Aragorn: Talking to his parents.
DM: Yeah, I know. Thatās why Iām pausing.
Aragorn: Iām going to see the heritage or not because I was like for show.
Aragorn: Iām going to pull out the white silver sword because itās shinier and it glistens.
DM: Yeah, youāll.
Aragorn: Iām going to pull out the white silver sword.
DM: Okay, back.
Aerendyl: Sorry.
DM: Youāre kind of like looking out the window to try and listen.
DM: You also begin to hear the sound of booshing as you are hit with a sense of PTSD from your time down as a cave.
Aerendyl: I said just say that.
DM: Yeah.
DM: The younger one cash.
DM: I have to agree with that. Who said that?
Aragorn: Oh, my God.
DM: He just turns it uses not like itāll mad and 23 seconds. But who are you?
DM: So can all majors fire does nothing to this dragon.
Aragorn: Go on.
DM: Like, not that theyāre unimpressed, but that they donāt think it will matter.
Aerendyl: Do you have any other plan to do instead of just like fucking stay here and die or rather die and try and kill the fucking dragon?
DM: Itās important to get away with 300 players.
Aerendyl: No. I just, Iāve encountered something similar to this one before and itās fucking terrifying.
Aerendyl: But at the same time, Iām also curious to see if my bombs work.
DM: The rooms have rights.
DM: I donāt know if thatās what it means to us here.
DM: about 600 years ago.
Aerendyl: And thatās make history or die trying.
Aerendyl: Youāre going to die anyways.
DM: He just kind of yells out,
DM: and he says,
DM: Jack, get in here.
DM: As the same kind of man with the boss,
DM: yeah, itās kind of like that.
DM: Theā¦
Aerendyl: You guys can daylight.
DM: Yup.
DM: Um, but he kind of has Derek come in,
DM: and Derek just immediately takes a glance at you,
Aerendyl: Sorry.
DM: and he kind of goes,
DM: heās eyebrows raised for a second,
DM: and then they just go back down.
DM: As he looks back and says,
DM: heās strong.
DM: Heās notā¦
DM: Oh, sorry.
Aerendyl: Iām not here to replace anybody.
DM: He hasā¦
DM: Heās strong, but heās not a good replacement.
Aerendyl: Iām just here to do my pocket bombs on this fucking dragon.
DM: And theyāll just kind ofā¦
DM: Essentially, they show you away.
DM: Theyāre very dismissive.
DM: Theyāve alreadyā¦
DM: Theyāve already talked in the fact that theyāre probably gonna die.
Aerendyl: Okay.
DM: So their plan right now is not trying to kill the dragon.
DM: Itās the by-time for people to stay.
DM: However, you have lost your chance
DM: to try toā¦
DM: to try to persuade them.
DM: As you seeā¦
DM: Yes, you get to the front lines,
DM: you kind of ran towards the light as you do,
DM: and have approachedā¦
Shain: Oh.
DM: Err-no, not there, no.
DM: Err-goorn, andā¦
DM: Oh, you three are together.
DM: But so you all kind of see this,
DM: dragon, youāre seeing this out the window
DM: from the safety of the watch tower.
DM: As a bit in the distance,
DM: you ever take a hundred-ish feet off the ground?
DM: A gigantic creature,
DM: easily a wingspan of 150 feet.
DM: Thereās just lines of red that begin to trace through the sky,
DM: up to one point.
DM: As the creature kind ofā¦
DM: gives out the screech,
DM: almost a pre-warning to its attack.
DM: But instead of doing what you all hoped,
DM: and going after the shiny, pretty lights,
DM: it turns at the last minute,
DM: going right for the city.
DM: Asā¦
DM: Yes?
DM: Not in the slightest.
DM: Like, it turns,
DM: but heās still like a hundred feet off.
Aerendyl: Why?
DM: Like, heās notā¦
DM: Yes, why?
Shain: Heās a hundred feet up, you say?
Shain: Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
DM: Is that a dragon?
Shain: Oh, most likely he wonāt hit the city and Iāll use call lightning.
Shain: To target the thing and Iām going to upcast it at fourth level.
Aerendyl: Lightning bolt.
DM: Ugh.
Aerendyl: Um, guess how about we try to train his dragon?
DM: Oh gosh.
Aerendyl: Call me Hickaboo.
DM: Huh.
Aerendyl: I lost my leg.
DM: ļæ½
DM: There is not a thunderstorm.
DM: Itās actually a pretty clear night.
DM: Like I said, thereās moonlight.
DM: Like you can see pretty well.
DM: Bro.
DM: The dragon needs to make a deck saving throw.
DM: Alright.
DM: Give me 12 seconds.
Aerendyl: Unlimited power.
DM: Alright. So we got to click here.
DM: Gotta make sure that this is like this because itās heavy.
DM: Problematic if it eight.
DM: Alright. You said decks.
Shain: Cast spell.
Aerendyl: Next.
DM: Thatās going to be a.
DM: Thatās going to be a 27.
Aerendyl: Overry barbed.
DM: Oh, well.
Aerendyl: Hey, butter.
Aerendyl: I will personally kill you myself and just run up the stairs.
Aerendyl: Shh.
DM: 24.
DM: 27 points of damage.
DM: Okay. Okay.
Aerendyl: Except heās waiting.
DM: As the lightning bolt kind of strikes the dragon, it kind of jolts away from the lightning.
DM: Very clearly it had some of that maybe not much.
DM: Maybe just wasnāt expecting to be hit, but it did kind of jolt away.
DM: As the you guys are kind of stationed around here.
DM: The dragon essentially came in from this direction and then turned it as well.
DM: As it kind of turns back to the left heading right towards the center.
DM: The red lines begin to coalesce right at its mouth as it spews fire down on the city.
DM: So just to make sure I understand because this is a bit out of order.
DM: At this point, erotic one and Caitlin will be mounting horses attempting to get back as soon as possible.
DM: Soldiers have also been given orders by you to get back to this city.
DM: Shane, what about you? What are you doing?
Shain: I could do it.
DM: No, ride the dragon.
Aerendyl: Turn to a tarot dackel and write it.
DM: We call him a dragon.
Shain: No, no, no, I was thinking I would be riding myself.
Aerendyl: Donāt fuck.
Shain: Oh, I see.
Aerendyl: How to train your dragon?
Shain: You know what Iām actually thinking about.
Shain: Thatās a great idea.
DM: No, it is maintaining its altitude of about 100 feet flying directly towards the city.
Shain: What could possibly go wrong?
Shain: Oh,
Shain: Iām going to have to go ahead and get a view like with the sunlight and stuff,
Shain: hitting it.
Shain: Is it landed? Has it landed yet or no?
DM: About here is where itās currently at.
DM: So it has blade waste to.
Shain: The majority of like a line like like that.
DM: Iām sure here.
DM: It has thatās not the one Iām trying to do.
DM: Itās kind of a laid way to like here so far and itās just kind of continuing.
Shain: How big is this one?
DM: How big is what?
Shain: This one.
DM: Since it has kind of those red like lines going through it as itās breathing fire.
DM: You would estimate the wingspan to be about 150.
Shain: 150 ish.
DM: The length of the actual dragon from like head to tail is about 100 feet.
DM: It falls about in line with what you had previously been rumored on.
DM: Not necessarily use.
DM: Hmm.
Shain: Question.
Shain: This is theoretical.
Shain: I would love to do it.
Shain: But also at the same time, I donāt think itās going to work because the measurements arenāt correct.
Shain: If I were to polymorph, fly up to the dragon, unpolymorph into like not into its mouth,
Shain: but like onto its head.
Shain: Right.
Shain: Wall of force, the creature, mid-air, because it doesnāt have to be like a physical point,
Shain: itās not to be touching anything and try and box him in completely so he canāt do any more damage.
Shain: Hmm.
Aerendyl: I have an idea of Lux.
Shain: Youāre going to getā¦
DM: So the problem is, is there is no way youād be able to catch up to the dragon.
Shain: I thought of it.
Shain: Itās a true idea.
Shain: They would kill me.
Shain: But what if I did?
Shain: What if I could?
Shain: I have a⦠I donāt think I can double concentrate.
DM: You couldnāt cast that ball, but there is zero way.
Shain: But also theoretically speaking, theoretically speaking, I have a spell-storing ring.
DM: I hope as he can hold concentration.
Shain: I could put that on there and it keeps concentration for me.
Aerendyl: That just gives you a normal spell slot, right?
Shain: The spell-storing ring, I think.
Aerendyl: Oh, you have a spell storing me. I gave you a spell refueling ring.
Aerendyl: Iām not going to.
Shain: Oh, itās as if you passed it through it, never mind.
Shain: Itās not holding a sound concentration.
Shain: Never mind. Nope, canāt be done.
Shain: All right.
Shain: Jane is going to then, I guess, uhā¦
DM: For the record, you have a spell scroll called control weather.
Shain: trying to get toā¦
Shain: Yeah, true.
Shain: This would be the time.
Shain: I just got to get within range of them.
Aerendyl: Make it rain so that the fire he spreads, you know.
DM: You take control of weather within five miles of you.
Shain: Ah!
DM: Like youāre youāre within range.
Shain: I can do wind control acid.
Shain: Hang on, wait a minute, is there acid?
Shain: One second.
Shain: Hail.
DM: You can make a blizzard.
Shain: You know what?
Shain: Yeah, why not?
Shain: Weāre going to do temperature. Wait, how does this work?
Shain: Iāve never done this before.
Shain: Five malradious DM determines you can change precipitation temperature whenā¦
Shain: Oh, you have to roll 1D for every 10 minutes.
Shain: So itās a 1 in 4 chance that I couldā¦
DM: It takes one before times ten minutes for the new condition to take effect.
Shain: Oh.
DM: When you change the weather conditions find.
DM: I had a current condition on the following table and change it stage by one upper now.
DM: So essentially you can make it be light clouds.
DM: You could make it be either cold or warm.
DM: And then you can also make it to where thereās strong winds or itās calm.
Shain: Thatās it.
Shain: Cool.
Shain: Um, I will thenā¦
DM: And thereās like, I think it will make a lot of difference.
Shain: I guess Aaron Gorin and like, Caitlinās still here.
Shain: They already booked it.
Shain: They didnāt take me, no.
DM: There theyāre already like horseback their like, making white.
Shain: I guess what Iāll do is Iāll pull out the spell scroll.
Shain: And just likeā¦
DM: Well, no, you canāt. You can only change it up and down by once. You can make light
Shain: Iām going to have to drag an army to deal this little piece of work.
Shain: All right.
Shain: Fine.
Shain: And Iāll set it down and Iāll activate like itās our cane schedule.
Shain: Iām going to getā¦
Aerendyl: Good.
Shain: What is driving hell?
Shain: Iām curious.
DM: clouds, make it cold, and then make it with strong wind.
Shain: So it has to increase.
Shain: Well, thenā¦
Shain: Dang.
Shain: Thatās rough.
Shain: I guess Iām not doing that.
DM: Try the wand of wonder.
Shain: Iām just going to go follow them.
Shain: Whatever.
Shain: Iām going to do anything.
Shain: Iāmā¦
Shain: You know what?
DM: That would be really pointless.
Shain: Sure.
Shain: Letās do it.
Shain: Nevermind.
Shain: No, Iām here.
Shain: Thatās not point.
Shain: Iām here.
DM: Youāre here. The very top would be to youāre within 45 feet.
DM: At this point, you would be within 45 feet every day.
Aerendyl: Iām 40-5 feet.
DM: If you had more warning of where you would have been closer, you could have made your way over here.
DM: I will note, by the way, that even though the dragon changed directory, there are many spells that are being shot at the dragon, the walls and city as mages and different spell casters attempt to deter the dragon.
Aerendyl: Now I will say butter.
DM: It does not seem to be having much.
DM: The transit most of it does appear to be like week.
Aerendyl: I will say.
DM: I get that, but thereās no way for you to make it all the way to the other one.
DM: These walls are not sticking 80 feet tall.
Aerendyl: What can I do?
Shain: If you can somehow get my attention, uh, nudge, nudge, I can fly you over to the dragon, you can go in there.
DM: Just look at it in such a broad path, look at it in different ways.
Aerendyl: Thatās a dumb idea, but itās an idea.
Shain: to nuclear bomb in your hand.
DM: Yeah, yes, dragon. Just let me answer this question first. If the dragon stays flying at 100 feet,
DM: there is no point within the city that you actually be able to reach. The tallest tower within the
DM: entire city is going to be this guard tower here, which does go up to 65 feet, but thatās still only
Shain: Iām going to start with the first one.
DM: 35 feet away from the dragon at 100 feet. So, unless you could magically⦠Okay, yes,
DM: guys. Okay. Oh, yeah. I should keep believing. Come back. Is there a way for me to be like, actually,
Aerendyl: I have a dumb idea.
Shain: Iām going to start with the second one.
Shain: Iām going to start with the second one
DM: you donāt get me. Itās not a bot. Itās just like the server settings. I donāt want to change it.
Shain: Iām going start with the second one.
Aerendyl: I have that.
Shain: Oops!
Shain: Iām sorry, Iām sorry, Iām sorry.
Shain: Iām sorry.
Shain: Iām sorry!
Shain: Hey.
DM: If you give me like 23 seconds, I know I can find this out.
Aerendyl: Can you give glow like a roll?
Aerendyl: I know.
DM: Yes. Iām actually going to⦠Iām actually going to tell you this because this is revolutionary. If you
Shain: I wish this was not for that.
Shain: Primary rooftops
DM: arenāt not concerned about fall damage, you can misty step post to the dragon and you would be within 30 feet.
DM: Not necessarily misty step, but blessing them very quickly. Then when will you be casting that instead of
Shain: The Web site focuses on volume 2
Aerendyl: Unless I cast wind wall to stop my fall.
Aerendyl: I will say.
DM: attacking the dragon? Yeah, heās too far up. You would only be the only point in misty stepping
Aerendyl: Iām trying to get.
Aerendyl: Iām trying to step on top of the dragon.
DM: would be to get within range. You would still be 15 feet away from the dragon.
DM: Yes. I didnāt even realize that you had levitate. Sorry, so youāre telling me that you just became
Aerendyl: I can cast levitate on myself.
Aerendyl: I do have levitate.
Shain: other
DM: thinking, Chaco or Rago, just overnight, when did that happen? One creature object. Yeah, okay. Your main
Aerendyl: I mean, I have a.
DM: suspended here for the duration. This bug in that table. Put target can move only by pushing or pulling
Shain: you
Aerendyl: Iāve never used levitate.
DM: against the fixed object of service. So you could cast that on yourself and you float up 20 feet.
Aerendyl: I have a.
Aerendyl: Wait a second.
DM: An unknown creature that succeeds on a constitution same as there is unaffected and you would be able to
DM: change its feet up or down by 20 feet on your turn. But no, theoretically, science tells me no. If you
Shain: Iām going to take gravity.
DM: cast a spell, he basically loses gravity effects, which means he would just continue to coast and then he
Shain: Wait a minute.
DM: would just fly away from the city because he canāt stop. You know how to get within 30 feet. You cast
Shain: I have a can trip that next creature is prone.
Aerendyl: Thatās the problem.
Shain: I just got to get within 30 feet of the guy and he feels the same.
Aerendyl: Iām doing it.
DM: this levitate on yourself, then you can misty step for blessing the river between right up to him. If
Shain: Iām going to take a little bit of the guy.
DM: you would be able to get right on top of him even if he was hired. Like that is an option.
Shain: Heās thinking about it.
Shain: Heās going to do it.
DM: No, I do feel like I have to for warn you. The odds of you getting completely toasted is high.
Shain: All right.
Shain: Do it.
Shain: Yes.
DM: Let me put it this way. Have you ever tried to touch the back of a grill?
DM: I do feel like I have to kind of. Yeah. I mean, the only place that would even be remotely safe is possibly the tail.
Shain: If you.
Aerendyl: Through its body.
DM: Most of the lines do not go all the way back to the tail. So thereās only like a couple. So that
DM: theoretically should be kind of cooler, but it is kind of flopping back and forth as itās fun.
DM: Now, I feel like I do have to say just because I pointed that out does not mean that I am urging you to
DM: do it. Yes, sir. Okay.
Aerendyl: I have an idea.
Aerendyl: Levitate on myself.
Aerendyl: I jump.
Aerendyl: Iām levitating.
DM: I appreciate the idea. I do. Let me let me point out the reprobble is what the first of all, how would you get out of the way?
Aerendyl: I jump off.
Aerendyl: Iām still floating.
Aerendyl: I just let it pass me by.
Shain: Iām going to take a little bit of the guy.
DM: You wouldnāt be able to not really and you canāt throw it after that.
Aerendyl: I have an item.
DM: It does. It does indeed.
DM: That is not how you are aware of this shield to work.
DM: For what you know, regardless of the amount that was supposed to have been taken, it only counts as one attack.
DM: And you get the one hit. Now that big set. Thatās still just one of the problems.
DM: Problem number two. All right. You never crushed up your thinking rock to turn it into the bomb.
Shain: Letās see on the front.
DM: You have to crush it up and mix it into the sand and stuff.
DM: And then, uh,
Aerendyl: I know that.
DM: the title and I feel like this seems to be the most important thing.
Aerendyl: The dragon will be.
DM: Even if this does work, there is no guarantee that it does anything to the dragon.
DM: And it might just turn at you and cook you while spewing fire.
DM: Lava, the Venus.
DM: Now, you do you. Iām not saying no to you. If you want to go for it, go for it.
Aerendyl: What is me?
Aerendyl: Iām going to start prepping the nukes at least.
Aerendyl: Iām going to run across the wall.
DM: So let me get this straight. You got to, you got like the whatever itās called.
Aerendyl: And get to where I see the sun.
DM: The Handsome and Gretel. That one.
DM: And youāre just running. Youāre just running down the stinking.
DM: No, no, no, no. You got the you got the ports from you.
DM: You got it all port and theyāre just running across the wall and going.
DM: Big sense of it.
DM: You do, like I said, you got like three of like the black ones.
DM: And for the record, the explosion once she specifically mentioned it be the black stones.
DM: So you donāt know what would happen if you mix the others.
DM: The black stone spins.
Aerendyl: Iām going to start crushing it on my way.
DM: You do that then.
DM: No, you havenāt. Iām talking.
DM: Very nice try, but itās been like 12 seconds since you decided this head this way.
DM: Like this dragon is flying at 80 feet per second.
DM: Like itās itās cooking. All right. And itās cooking the city along with it.
DM: You think your war horse can outrun a dragon?
DM: It is, it is. Like youāre going fast. Iāll give you that. Youāre going fast.
DM: But youāre still going through people.
DM: Youāre going through people?
DM: Okay. I didnāt realize that. Okay. This is like youāre a lot closer than I was thinking.
DM: So, so youāre that kind of all of them.
Aerendyl: Oh, but I canāt break into an unused warehouse.
DM: I understand. I did know that we were the insjustify the means type of element.
Caitlin: I can feel three or four people on the way.
Aerendyl: Oh, but I canāt break into a blacksmith.
DM: Just stopping their internal organs. If they die as a result, oops,
DM: heās easy. They should have had better health coverage.
Aerendyl: Iām going to go to a blacksmith.
Caitlin: I can feel three people on the way.
DM: Anyways, the reason why Iām trying to continue here is because it actually doesnāt matter where
DM: you guys think youāre going as the dragon begins to circle right here in the center of town,
DM: spewing down fire, making a radius about like a about like a sow of just
Aerendyl: Iām going to run across the wall.
DM: a
Aerendyl: Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
DM: there is a statue, but it is right here.
Aerendyl: Butter.
Aerendyl: Center of town.
Aerendyl: Wasnāt that where the statues were?
DM: Just the curiosity. Why would that have mattered?
Aerendyl: The statues werenāt a thing until now.
Aerendyl: Like they were just announced the voting statue.
DM: Oh, okay. Yeah. Um, but no.
Aerendyl: I was wondering if it was made out of some sort of material that the dragon really wants because itās shiny metal.
DM: But
Caitlin: Are you just hates the fucker?
DM: but as it kind of
DM: flies and circles, just making essentially a landing pad of lava as a kind of decent and stops
DM: right at the center. Um, it kind of does one more screech just like it did at
Aerendyl: Iām going to run across the wall.
DM: its beginning of its attack. Um, keep in mind at this point, countless lives have been lost.
DM: Like you are all painfully aware of this as people are literally screaming and crying and there
DM: were there were walls of smoke coming up from everywhere that the dragon dragon has fallen through.
DM: Um, but the dragon kind of plans there.
DM: And everything is not silent, but itās far quieter than it has been for a while as kind of the
DM: lava just stops moving completely and the fires donāt spread as though he can somehow control them.
DM: Um,
DM: no, you aināt how you can do that one.
DM: How are you familiar with him?
DM: Thatās not familiar.
Shain: Why not that a creature youāre familiar with.
Shain: Iāve heard of them.
DM: Itās coming. I can feel it. Evil.
Shain: Yes.
DM: are you?
DM: Itās
DM: Iām detecting center of the city.
Caitlin: Locate object.
DM: No, no, actually, youāre actually really glad that youāre not on the watch tower. You guys are
DM: about here as you made it through the city because this was the watch tower you were going to
DM: and it is now level on the ground gone reduced.
DM: But the dragon has, yes.
DM: Youāre nowhere close to shoot the dragon.
DM: I appreciate your attempts. I really, really do.
DM: But exactly what are you trying to do against an ancient dragon?
Aerendyl: Wait.
DM: The what?
DM: As far as you can tell, heās probably ignored. He has tried.
Aerendyl: I know how to take down the dragon.
DM: Hmm.
DM: I forgot about Shrek. Itās not my fault. So I can just imagine this little dragon.
DM: What?
DM: No. Um, anyways, um,
DM: as the dragon landed, um,
Caitlin: I think that guy is still meeting up.
DM: after a couple seconds of what is kind of feels like silence.
DM: You all get a strange sensation. Um, you know what itās like to receive a message.
Caitlin: Heās going to do that and immediately sound exactly the same.
DM: And thatās kind of what this feels like, but it feels overpowering as you all kind of get
DM: the same message just poured into your heads.
DM: Hang on, let me pull up the script to your hand.
DM: I donāt think that thing would be good.
DM: I donāt think it would work too great with this.
Caitlin: Read the script, butter.
DM: It might. Oh.
Caitlin: Read the script.
DM: Itās up to you. Okay. Would you try to do the thing?
DM: Oh crap. No, itās not that good. Shut up. Um,
DM: but, uh,
DM: you thought that now, um, you just get kind of, um, the, the voice seems sounds almost,
DM: almost happy in a way. Itās kind of, um, off-putting as.
DM: Itās just, uh, hang on, hang on, hang on.
DM: No. Um,
DM: oh my god, thatās pretty going to good. Why am I prolonging this? All right.
DM: You get the one who stood against me before is no longer here and get the boy returns to his home.
DM: Bring me the air of God or the city your city.
DM: We reduced to ash which dawn Iām denied a new quarter.
DM: Judica will burn the screams will be on your soul.
DM: Yes.
DM: Yes, everybody seems to have heard it.
DM: Youāre going for it?
Caitlin: I mean, Iām going towards the dragon.
DM: Well, you donāt really have that context.
DM: Um,
DM: no.
DM: Once again, hang on.
DM: I didnāt know it was your one to make a new character. I forgot about that.
Aerendyl: Please tell me this isnāt just because Andrew wanted to make a new character.
Aerendyl: Thatās fucking awesome.
DM: You are.
Aerendyl: I hope your next character isnāt just the Lord of the Rings rip off.
DM: You.
DM: Ah, thatās our.
Aerendyl: Thank you.
DM: Did youāre agony?
DM: Well, considering the fact that after his proclamation, you kind of got a little bit closer
DM: while he was like yelling, so you can kind of see him because youāre kind of here at
DM: this point.
DM: He has laid down.
DM: Heās kind of like, curled up.
DM: Heās not stressing it.
DM: But the problem is that youāre going to be faced is that this gigantic ring is filled
DM: with lava.
DM: So you could probably get pretty darn close.
DM: But no, no, itās like he descended from 100 feet in a swirling pattern just spewing lava
DM: down.
DM: So itās pretty thick lava.
DM: Like itās not going to be some of the, itās completely through and through.
DM: Heās sleeping on the lava.
DM: Itās a pool of lava at this point.
DM: Now, Iām just going to be point two seconds.
DM: I just want to clarify the hair to display it as the sword that you got from your fault.
Aragorn: Right.
Aerendyl: Oh.
DM: Correct?
DM: I wanted to make sure that that I wasnāt misinterpreting what the sword was.
DM: If I may ask, what is your, are you just curious if this will do something?
DM: Or did you have any intention when you, whenever you did this?
DM: Well, my friends.
DM: I got you.
DM: Well, Eric, I have a question.
DM: You can either make a wisdom saving throw or you can give into it.
DM: It is, it is his skill that is currently being applied.
DM: So you would just kind of intuitively know that.
DM: Are you going to try to resist it or youāre going to allow taking care of it?
DM: You have no idea what itās going to do.
DM: You just know that he, something that he is, his skill or something is going to somehow
Aragorn: Do I need to like know what it is or.
DM: affect you.
Aerendyl: Thatās a by this is butter talk for you want to make a wisdom saving throw or do you want to make a new character because youāre about to die.
DM: I never once said that.
Aerendyl: Iām pretty sure I heard that.
DM: But my friend, as you stand there wielding your, your historical sword, you kind of stand
DM: proud for a moment as the magic kind of takes hold.
DM: As you feel a kind of a sense of power and strength as from an external perspective, my
DM: friend.
DM: Nathaniel, he begins to glow kind of with a, the theorial sense as a, as a manifestation
Aerendyl: Iām going to run across the wall.
DM: of a crown worthy of a grand king just manifests around your head.
DM: You know that stink at anime effect whenever it goes, boom, as like, like, there is sense
DM: of presence and aura.
DM: Literally, itās literally that.
DM: As the dragon, the dragon perfectly reacts to your response as it jolt up from what assumed
DM: would be he could take a nap.
DM: Heās not stressing at the maybe you show up.
DM: And if you do, youāll be thrown in from by the peasants like itās not a big deal as
DM: he was not expecting this at all as he looks your way.
DM: You kind of, you, you, you feel a comforting hand almost as though itās not just you whoās
DM: wielding the sword.
DM: As you feel extremely powerful, do you want to try anything?
Aragorn: Is it?
DM: So you would be thatās a givevert take ish 60 to 80 feet away depending on if weāre talking
DM: like the closest like you versus the head of the dragon that is looking directly at you
DM: as itās gotten up.
DM: Thatās about 60 issue.
DM: Well, not really a hand on your shoulder.
Aragorn: So I feel a hand on my shoulder.
DM: Itās the kind of like the presence of somebody else like almost the weight of the sword is
Aragorn: Like a present.
DM: gone.
DM: Somebody else is helping you wield it.
DM: Yes, right.
DM: You would have been running that way from here.
DM: So you would be about here as theyāre kind of over here.
DM: Yeah, I assume you would have would use the same run on the buildings strats.
DM: Oh, yes.
DM: Okay, you can kind of just have that one.
DM: But everyone, did you want to try anything?
Shain: Am I there?
DM: Yes, you kind of youāre youāre youāre youāre getting there.
DM: Youāre not like there there yet.
DM: Like youāre youāre kind of back here.
DM: Youāre running on foot.
DM: No, not yet.
Shain: Am I? Am I within? Am I?
DM: No, you left him behind.
Aragorn: Iām going to.
Aragorn: I want to go to this main.
DM: Yeah, well, I mean, itās like right there.
Aragorn: To this main road right here.
DM: Youāre essentially in kind of like the thing.
DM: So youāre kind of on the road spacing straight on from like the main road.
Aragorn: Iām up.
DM: So you have a clear view of the track.
Aragorn: Iām like point my sore in them.
Aragorn: Iām like you foul beast.
Aragorn: The prodigal son has returned.
Aragorn: And as return to slay you.
DM: The dragon snarls as it approaches and says, I cannot be beaten with borrowed power.
Aragorn: And push your hide as a banner to look upon enjoy while I sit upon my throne.
DM: Just give me the.
DM: Sorry, my brain just had a stroke.
Aragorn: Give me that.
DM: I swear to you, it did.
DM: I ate myself.
Aragorn: Yes, the thing is yes, the season.
DM: Bro.
DM: Yeah, yeah, itās itās Paul.
Aragorn: Give me one second.
DM: It man.
DM: I want to tell you.
Aragorn: It is.
DM: Yeah, heās like kind of like head is down kind of just crawling closer.
Aragorn: Iāll let that mother for her.
DM: Okay, I will.
Aragorn: I will give you.
DM: As he crawls closer, give me the Abbey 10.
DM: I let you let you live.
DM: Youāre in a prodigal son.
DM: You are whatās left over.
Aragorn: I will give you nothing.
Aragorn: I will give you but the pain you inflicted upon my kingdom.
Aragorn: I will give you the trauma that you have inflicted upon me and my family.
DM: Oh, just to make sure Nate, are you kind of proudly standing next to him or you trying
Aragorn: I shall put your head on a pedestal where it belongs.
DM: to like hide kind of like right there and is like right here in the back alley just close
DM: enough to give him power like whatās.
DM: Okay, by the way, you just just so that you were aware this is not an area of effect skill.
DM: Itās not going to affect you this time because like I said, perfect weapon control is you
DM: together each time.
DM: Before the record, I was really, really hoping that you would do it too.
DM: I was just concerned whenever you asked like, but I was like, letās see whatās he trying
DM: to do.
DM: But anyways, dragon, you would kind of approach at this point as the dragon is just crawling
DM: closer and closer and theyāre speaking back and forth.
DM: You theoretically could do something if youād like or would you just want to kind of stand
DM: there with them.
DM: Would you want to stand off to the side on the buildings?
DM: I understand youāre not actually at your computer, but I know that you can hear me.
DM: So thatās why Iām talking.
Aragorn: I will give you a moment.
DM: Iāll just wait.
DM: Man, always wait on dragon.
Aragorn: I will give you.
DM: Okay, well, Iām just going to make this is informed because heās not here yet.
DM: Heās just going to, okay, yes, I will let you know when heās within 30 feet.
Aerendyl: Sorry.
Aerendyl: I was glad.
DM: He is right now crawling forward.
DM: Heās about 42 feet away.
Aerendyl: I was expecting you to focus on Andrew.
DM: Yeah, I know.
DM: I get it.
DM: Iām sorry.
DM: I just need to know because you were like kind of right there.
DM: So I need to know where you trying to go because you would be kind of about here as you
Aerendyl: Basically.
DM: can.
DM: You can stand next to him.
DM: If you want to stand on the building, you stand in like the alleyway trying to hide
DM: yourself.
Aerendyl: I know for a fact that this dragon is his eyes are only on arogorn.
DM: Where would you go?
Aerendyl: We donāt even exist to him.
DM: Completely and utterly.
Aerendyl: Realistically speaking.
DM: Essentially as far as you know.
Aerendyl: Iām going to have my hood up.
Aerendyl: So maybe thatāll help.
Aerendyl: Iām going to stay there.
Aerendyl: Iām going to stay where Iām at and prepare one more bomb.
Aragorn: Itās like good.
Aerendyl: Iām going to have two of these prepared in my bag.
DM: Sure.
Aerendyl: Iām actually going to ready the one that I made.
Aragorn: Let me die a worthy death.
DM: Oh, my gosh.
Aerendyl: Just finish.
Aerendyl: Itās just youāre holding two bags of holding and then you fold it like a pair of socks.
Aerendyl: Iām going to stand.
Aerendyl: Iām going to stay up here.
Aerendyl: Iām going to make another bomb.
Aerendyl: And then I want to prepare an action to eat this thing with my metal armor as far as I can.
Aerendyl: To where that center dot is.
Aerendyl: Or at least the center of where the dragonās body will be whenever heās moving.
Aerendyl: I want to try and go under him.
DM: So, so youāre throwing.
DM: Did you say that that this is just one of the ones you made or are you putting everything into
Aerendyl: Iām not.
DM: one?
Aerendyl: So Iām the one with the big stone crushed up.
Aerendyl: Thatās going to be my main one and then Iāll make a backup for anything else.
DM: And so youāre going to throw the main one then.
Aerendyl: If like we get into combat.
DM: Oh, youāre just preparing it.
Aerendyl: For some reason or.
DM: Youāre not actually doing it.
Aerendyl: Yes, because I want Andrew to do his thing.
DM: Iām sorry.
DM: I misunderstood.
Aerendyl: Also when I see Andrew holding a golden sword.
Aerendyl: And like I see his aura.
Aerendyl: But as a backup.
DM: I got you.
Aerendyl: As I as a backup like things goes south.
Aerendyl: I want to throw this underneath the dragon and implode him basically from underneath.
DM: Iām falling.
Aerendyl: And theoretically.
DM: Just give me just point this.
Aerendyl: Theoretically it should ignite instantly because of the lava if heās under the lava.
Aerendyl: Theoretically.
DM: Um.
Aerendyl: Iām up here.
DM: Iām.
Aerendyl: Iām up on this roof.
Aerendyl: So I think youāre like right down here.
Aerendyl: You donāt see me.
Aragorn: Does this guy ask any other questions?
Aragorn: I think my toys broken.
Aerendyl: Is this becoming the new dark vision.
DM: Now, gosh.
Aragorn: This is the new still for you bar.
Aerendyl: This is the new dark.
Aragorn: I will give you.
Aerendyl: The rebarbs.
DM: Like I literally just need like.
Aerendyl: Actually, it may within 30 feet.
DM: I just think like 49.67 seconds.
DM: I apologize.
Aerendyl: I love how Shane is literally just seeing Andrew turn to a god.
Aerendyl: And his first thought is.
Aerendyl: I want to make him faster.
Aerendyl: Iām not sure if heās going to be able to do that.
DM: Iām so sorry.
DM: My computer is just kind of like crapped itself and my notes closed and I desperately need them
DM: because I donāt want to be like incorrect.
Aerendyl: No, but like in terms of terms of like the individual.
DM: You know.
DM: I know.
Aerendyl: Again.
DM: Iām sorry.
Aragorn: Itās a body pulpit.
Aerendyl: Really better again.
Aerendyl: See better.
Aerendyl: This is why you need.
Aerendyl: But this is why you need to build new PC and not just keep upgrading the same one.
DM: This is a freshly built PC.
Aerendyl: Oh, Iām sorry for your loss, buddy.
DM: Speaking of which completely like, um, completely like side tangent.
Aerendyl: Your PC building sucks.
DM: But like actually I, I, I, I, Iām there.
DM: The research.
DM: Iāll have some computers that need it.
DM: Oh, so.
DM: Iām.
DM: But yeah, yeah, yeah.
DM: So, um.
DM: Where is it?
DM: You know.
DM: Uh, where is it?
DM: Little.
Aerendyl: Iām sorry.
DM: You.
Aerendyl: Weāre waiting on butter anyways.
Aerendyl: I am shocked that this is happening.
Aerendyl: I was not expecting this to happen.
DM: Yeah, I know. Iām very, very sorry.
Aerendyl: At all.
Aerendyl: Why am I hearing L.D.
Aerendyl: Music.
Aerendyl: Dude.
Aerendyl: Who put hurry under the dragonās tab.
Aerendyl: I must have been the wind.
DM: It must have been the wind.
Aerendyl: Iām so happy that Andrew is finally getting his arc.
DM: Iām sorry.
Aragorn: Itās like a 1 piece arc.
Caitlin: Iām out one point three seconds.
Aerendyl: Worth it though.
Aragorn: Itās worth it.
Aerendyl: So.
DM: Iām so sorry. I really, really am.
Aerendyl: As long as you donāt get tired at 11 p.m.
DM: But I canāt find the thingy.
Aragorn: Iām.
Aerendyl: And go this is where weāre ending session.
DM: Oh, no, no. For the record, Iām high on so many drugs.
Aerendyl: What youāre saying?
DM: I got so much sleep. Like Iām cooked to go to 1 a.m.
DM: If you guys are cooking.
Aerendyl: What you saying?
Aerendyl: Oh.
DM: That we.
Aragorn: Itās that one fucking wolf meme.
DM: Okay, I do apologize. I got it all back up. Iām super sorry. Super super sorry.
DM: I just it just do be like that sometimes, you know.
DM: But anyways, yes. So the dragon is creeping forwards.
Aragorn: I will give you.
DM: Dragon has prepared to throw the thing.
DM: Foxy, you finally get close.
DM: Iām sorry.
DM: Youāre about 30 feet away from.
DM: From the.
DM: From.
DM: Nate and Andrew.
DM: So thatās about 70ish feet away from the dragon.
DM: What are you doing?
Aerendyl: I got spirit bomb.
Aerendyl: What?
Aragorn: Thatās what he wanted.
Aerendyl: Iām sorry.
DM: Iām not.
Aragorn: I think this is an appropriate song.
Aerendyl: Heās a 16.
DM: What?
Aragorn: I think it is.
DM: Oh, my gosh.
Aerendyl: Heās the age weāre not to disrespect loves.
DM: It is approaching.
DM: Ever still.
DM: And it is now within 30 feet.
DM: What magically happens?
DM: What defaults the sport of old beast?
DM: What?
DM: Well, well, well, you think a Nate has been asking to remind him the moment heās within 30 feet.
DM: He knows is within 30 feet.
DM: He is that within range.
DM: What happens?
DM: You what?
Aerendyl: Iām going to come.
DM: Iām falling.
DM: I see.
DM: Well, the the dragon kind of stops at about 25ish feet out as he just looks to that on.
DM: Iām expecting you to make a move some pitiful excuse for resistance.
DM: Or to offer yourself up.
DM: But heās clearly waiting for you to make a move before he does anything.
DM: As he also essentially falls his action.
Aragorn: You are expecting me to do anything.
DM: He just kind of snorls and says,
DM: not like.
DM: And he just says, call me what you will.
DM: But at least Iāll be prepared for your pitiful resistance.
DM: This is what Iām going to say.
DM: Iām going to say this is what Iām going to say.
DM: Because he kind of.
DM: Youāre not exactly sure what he does.
DM: But the kind of scales that are kind of on his face.
DM: They look as old.
DM: They they theyāve gotten more black.
DM: They kind of lost.
DM: Almost like obsidian.
DM: Iām.
DM: Um.
DM: The speed of the level of my gosh.
DM: So yeah, just like.
DM: You know, what are you.
DM: Are you going to do anything or you,
DM: you also going to sit there and wait for him to kind of.
Aragorn: I will walk up a little bit.
DM: Okay, you canāt walk up much because heās still like on the lava.
DM: lava. Okay.
Aragorn: I will walk up as close as I can.
DM: Hey, this your filthy casual.
Aerendyl: I know.
DM: Oh my gosh, I found that.
Aerendyl: Oh.
Aerendyl: Oh my goodness.
DM: Bro, Iāve been looking for these for 20 minutes.
DM: All right. Hang on. I need to.
DM: I need to.
Aragorn: How long is it?
Aerendyl: Wait a second.
Aerendyl: Itās crazy how you might kill three because of me.
DM: Itās crazy that you think thatās whatās about to happen.
Aerendyl: Iām going to kill three because of me.
DM: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Shain: Let, let teamwork win for the sake of an array.
Aerendyl: Itās what we handle it.
DM: What?
DM: Oh, oopsies. Sorry.
DM: I was editing the wrong thing.
DM: Look, Iām like an idiot.
Aerendyl: Itās black.
DM: Iām not going to be able to do that.
Aerendyl: I have light vision.
DM: I apologize.
DM: Thereās nothing to see. Thatās why.
DM: You should be able to see.
DM: I donāt know.
DM: What do you think Iām trying to do right now?
DM: What?
DM: What exactly did you think was happening here?
Shain: Weāre playing a dnd.
DM: Iām not sure.
Shain: Weāre playing with your friends and make unnecessary remarks.
Shain: Yes.
DM: Ignore the fact that itās.
DM: Ignore the fact that itās red.
DM: Itās just.
DM: Anyways.
Aerendyl: I should be up here.
DM: Iām sorry, didnāt you say that you were Marines understood them?
DM: Youāre right.
Aerendyl: I was perched up on the house.
DM: No, no, no, like I said, heās still just kind of standing there waiting for you guys to do something.
DM: No, thatās the thing I did.
Aerendyl: Iām going to kill three because of me.
DM: Me too.
DM: Itās just.
DM: We can see you move it.
DM: Okay, okay, please stop.
DM: Okay, okay, please.
DM: As he just kind of sits there and waits for a movement, he kind of snarkly says, you
DM: call me a coward, but you frozen in fear.
DM: Wait, wait, did Andrew go?
Shain: Right behind my.
DM: Iām sorry, not Andrew.
DM: Where did-
DM: What the-
Aerendyl: Where did there is?
DM: Oh my god.
Aragorn: I would like to attack.
DM: Alrighty.
Aragorn: Letās get this show on the road.
DM: My friend.
DM: Where else would I get a city on fire battle map at the last second?
Aragorn: Reddit.
DM: Where do you think I got it from?
Aragorn: I will walk up a little bit.
DM: I got it from our slash battle maps.
DM: Yes, it is.
DM: Anyways, so you said youāre going to attack.
DM: I will tell you that even though heās out of range of melee, you do kind of get the feeling
DM: that somehow swinging your sword will connect him.
DM: Alright, go ahead and as you prepare this attack, you kind of spring the sword up, square
DM: shoulders and go to swing it out.
DM: And like I said previously, it feels as though somebody is assisting as your crown grows
DM: the little- a little bit in brightness.
DM: It seems to shine as a sea.
DM: Yeah, Caitlin, you notice that kind of over his shoulder, the face of an old man appears
DM: to be wearing another brow as he swings the sword and a bolt of white light shines
DM: forwards hitting the dragon.
DM: Now, no, it does not kill the dragon at all.
Aerendyl: Wait, give me out.
DM: Yes, hang on.
Aerendyl: Iām sorry.
Aragorn: Calm down.
DM: Oh my gosh, I know.
DM: Iām talking.
Aerendyl: No, youāre not.
Aragorn: Let me get the pen and paper.
DM: Oh, fair enough.
Aerendyl: Youāre muted actually.
DM: I got you. Iāll just keep my mouth shut then.
Aragorn: As we swing the sword, I kill the dragon.
Aerendyl: Iām going to kill three because of me.
DM: Um,
DM: Iām just, Iām,
DM: my dear friend, these, these attacks that you are making will always connect as long as you
DM: are within range.
DM: You just roll damage.
DM: You donāt know the range.
DM: Probably try and figure it out, but you probably guesstimate 30-ish feet.
DM: Um, what?
Aerendyl: Is it the circle?
Aerendyl: Sir, I need paint.
DM: But as you can roll a damage, if youād like, or I can roll it for you, itās 58 base.
Shain: It is a thought circle, the quarter circle.
Shain: With no weapon die, with no weapon die.
Aerendyl: It should.
Aragorn: Let me find my DA.
DM: Itās just, thatās just base.
Shain: With no weapon die or with the weapon die.
DM: Itās not.
DM: Not buff, but then even fun stuff.
DM: Oh gosh, not keeping count.
Shain: Iām pulling it.
Shain: I got four.
Shain: Five.
Shain: Six.
Aerendyl: Wait.
DM: I said base.
Shain: Yes.
DM: I mean, you can, you can use the last features to be like.
DM: Yes, her.
Aerendyl: Iām going to kill three because of me.
DM: Iām going to say no because that is thatās thatās thatās thatās cheesy.
DM: If itās always going to connect, you donāt even roll for attack.
Shain: And then whatās your weapon eye on the sword, Andrew?
Shain: Like a D10 maybe a wheeled reverse tile or 2d6?
DM: Uh-huh.
Shain: That might be one of them.
Shain: Are you two handing it or one handing?
Shain: So 2d6.
Aerendyl: Sidebar with me real quick.
DM: No side part.
Shain: So another 2d6 of damage.
DM: No, get this.
DM: If it better.
DM: Now.
Shain: Another 14.
Shain: At least one strike did 40 damage.
Aerendyl: 31.
DM: At this point, at this point, may I please roll the die for you?
Shain: 40.
Shain: Yes.
DM: How many, how many, how many attacks are you doing?
Aerendyl: Iām I want to see.
Shain: So three.
Shain: If you.
Shain: If Andrew actually.
DM: How many more did you just say?
Shain: Five more.
Shain: The weapon.
DM: Which, so it should be 58 plus 2d8.
DM: Is that correct?
Shain: Five d8 plus 2d6 from his sword weapon plus.
Shain: Plus four on that because of his strength.
Shain: Plus your proficient with that sword correct.
Shain: Donāt you need to add proficiency to the damage.
Shain: So five d6.
Aragorn: I believe so.
Shain: So five d8 is that based with damage or whatever.
Shain: The 2d6 from your sword itself because youāre two handing it.
Shain: Itās a great sword.
Shain: Then youāre having the flat modifier to every attack roll itself is your
Shain: strength plus proficiency.
Aragorn: Yes. Yes.
Shain: Which would be.
Shain: Whatās your strength?
Shain: Iām proficiency.
Aragorn: Yes.
Shain: Iām proficiency together.
DM: He should actually get it.
DM: So there is actually another plus four.
Shain: Yep.
Shain: And then proficiency.
Shain: So add eight eight per attack and theyāre always hitting.
Shain: So.
DM: I got it.
Aerendyl: I want to see the numbers.
DM: I got the calculation.
Shain: Also, do we want to add every like exploit died to add another d6 to each attack.
DM: This is the most absurd thing Iāve ever written out.
DM: Iām rolling a chat.
Aerendyl: Oh, oh shit.
DM: Donāt worry about that.
Aerendyl: Erickmanās popping up in the chat.
DM: Uh-oh.
Shain: Heās.
DM: Iāll look roll.
Aerendyl: Iām going to kill three because of me.
DM: I donāt know what that does.
Shain: No.
DM: Please tell me youāre joking.
Aerendyl: So whatās 68?
Shain: So one you can do one bonus action faint which.
DM: So.
DM: So once I was the first thing of damage he did.
Shain: 40.
DM: Plus 40.
DM: And then.
Aerendyl: Is it 2d?
DM: Plus 2d8 plus another set of.
Shain: Yes, thatās really you have.
Shain: Oh, you have six.
Shain: You have another attack.
Aerendyl: No.
DM: So that means grand total you do 269 damage.
Aerendyl: Base.
DM: Base.
Aragorn: There is something else.
DM: Holy crap.
DM: Uh, the fact that itās a beam white that does 5d8.
DM: And auto heads.
DM: What did you want?
Shain: Auto crit.
DM: Now he canāt.
DM: You use action to put it on one.
Shain: Two and then one every level up is so four if youāre doing a third.
Aerendyl: I love how weāre all just like dick writing and group.
DM: Or d8.
Shain: 48 extra.
DM: I donāt know why it rolled as an ancient red dragon.
Shain: Thatās fine.
Shain: So the dragon is eviscerated.
DM: Um.
Shain: Oh, no, heās got the piercer fee.
Shain: I know thereās no proficiency.
DM: No.
Shain: No.
DM: You get auto connecting 5d8 plus 2d8.
DM: Every attack.
DM: If you roll a stick in natural one you miss and you miss all the damage.
Shain: Heās.
DM: And it ends your thinking magic.
DM: I wouldnāt do it.
Aerendyl: Iām waiting for the that was a scratch.
Shain: The dragonās dead.
DM: Iām not going to do it.
Shain: Cool.
DM: As.
DM: Now, just add a point.
DM: As you kind of.
DM: As youāre sending these bolts of.
DM: It is just.
DM: Change of energy essentially.
DM: His skin that he appeared to have hardened begins to chip off one
DM: after another as youāre hitting it.
Aerendyl: Thank you.
DM: As he begins to kind of back up at every attack.
DM: And he looks almost battered.
DM: If thatās even possible for a dragon.
DM: His eyes.
DM: As there are chunks of his like protective arm.
DM: Obsidian looking stuff.
DM: Just on the ground now.
DM: He looks at you with.
DM: Anger.
DM: And.
DM: Almost a sense of fear.
DM: As.
DM: He growls a deep brow.
Shain: I was.
DM: Says.
DM: That was a.
DM: Good showing.
DM: Probably from your.
DM: Probably health.
DM: Those little ants beside you.
Shain: I was shake my head. No.
DM: As I do need you all to roll.
Shain: I hide.
DM: And.
Shain: I hit the button.
DM: Thatās what.
DM: For whatās its.
DM: Initiative.
DM: Now for the record.
DM: I am doing a new thing with initiative because it just makes more sense.
DM: The thing that started out initiative was airborne.
DM: So whenever we continue.
DM: And then weāre going to start with the next person.
DM: After airborne.
DM: So it doesnāt start at the top of the turn order.
DM: Itās skipped to where everyone is and goes to the next person.
Shain: I almost rolled a 40 on initiative.
DM: A 14.
Shain: 40 almost.
Aerendyl: But what is the dragon rule?
DM: What we got from you guys.
DM: I have been I havenāt rolled for the dragon yet. Why.
Aerendyl: Iām wondering if I should use a lucky or not.
DM: I donāt know.
DM: No.
DM: Do you get to know where.
DM: Like.
DM: How does that work?
DM: I thought you just get to choose. No, no, no, Iām saying.
Aerendyl: He has a point.
DM: Because youāre all rolling initiative at the same time.
DM: Would you be able to know with the initiative order is of.
DM: Other creatures to know if you should use lucky or not.
DM: Yeah, I get it.
DM: I get it. Itās just.
DM: Well, letās.
DM: Thatās all for him. See what he gets.
DM: Versus stupid.
DM: Where is it.
Shain: Thatās really good or really bad.
DM: Is it a.
Shain: Thatās wrong.
Shain: Thatās got to be wrong.
Shain: Iām not sure if itās a dragon.
DM: Zero to initiative.
DM: Oh, thatās why. Okay.
Shain: Unless a dragon has zero dexterity that, you know.
DM: No, my. Okay. Okay. Iām following. Iām following.
DM: Oh.
DM: That would bake him.
Shain: Imagine it rolls a 50.
Aerendyl: Iām only third.
DM: Iām.
DM: Heās not doing to.
DM: Iām going to be honest.
Aerendyl: 15 years old.
DM: Nice.
DM: 15. 15.
DM: What about Caitlin?
DM: What did Caitlin get?
DM: Two.
Aerendyl: 17.
DM: So the funny part about that is.
Shain: Oh, what?
DM: I think he was a.
DM: He was a.
DM: Because I said we start where everyone was.
Shain: Seven.
DM: It go to the next person. That means the dragonās turn now next.
DM: And then we get Caitlinās.
DM: So itās actually better to have rolled lower.
Shain: I donāt like how I got fireball.
DM: Yep.
DM: So it just makes sense.
DM: Okay, so it usually shanes the one that starts combat,
DM: which is really silly how he gets to start combat by doing an action,
DM: by e.g. casting fireball or something.
DM: And then we roll initiative, and then suddenly it says turn again,
DM: because he rolled the first on initiative.
DM: So instead, we roll initiative, and we just go to the next person in line
Aerendyl: Thank you.
DM: from the person that initiated combat, if that makes sense.
DM: So because Erdogor and started combat, we go to his turn in the turn,
DM: or go to the next person, and thatās the person that he is.
DM: So actually this dragon rolling poorly actually was helpful.
DM: As he kind of just, like I said, kind of with fear in his eyes,
DM: looks at you, Andrew, you know, heās, he definitely was not expecting
DM: proper resistance.
DM: So instead, he does the only thing that dragons know how to do properly,
DM: and he begins to breathe fire.
DM: However, this is a charged attack, and as itās charging up,
DM: thatās it for his turn.
DM: But you can visibly see the lines tracing on his body going to his body.
DM: But Caitlin, it is your turn.
DM: Iām an oven.
DM: Am I neocle awakens?
DM: Why?
DM: Black.
DM: Itās a bonus action.
DM: Yes sir.
DM: You have so many things here that I can do some very interesting things.
DM: Iām not thinking that you guys would immediately challenge the dragon.
DM: Of course.
Shain: Well, we support that as a city of anime loving nerds. Yes.
DM: Of course you the sun here here I got you chief.
Aerendyl: A fuck?
Shain: Sorry.
DM: Oh wisdom save why.
DM: 29.
Shain: All right.

Shain: Weāre going to walk forward.
Shain: Try not to. Oh, I have a move.
Shain: I forgot. I know I didnāt see that part that part. Iām going to walk up next to Eric.
Shain: I.
Shain: Iāll put a hand like next to rate on air going shoulder and say, please allow me.
DM: momentary stasis
Shain: I will try and use momentary stasis.
Shain: He.
Shain: He needs to make a consaving making that easy. Heās got so much HP.
Shain: But weāll take over.
DM: Iām sorry. Youāre your casting moments or your stasis of the dragon.
DM: Okay. Okay. Iām misunderstood. Iām misunderstood. Iām misunderstood. Iām misunderstood. Youāre casting it on an angel. I was like, why would you do this?
Shain: I wasnāt doing that to answer. No. No. No. I was like allow me.
DM: I think that itās the two should save you.
Shain: Please, please guys. We need a net one. We need that one.
DM: should save it throw? Whatās the DC? All right, it is so improbable for him to
Shain: Not one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That one.
Shain: Itās got to be 18. That one. That one. That one. That one.
DM: fail this. Dirty 20.
Shain: Cronel shift reroll to disadvantage.
Shain: Two.
DM: 21.
Shain: Please.
Shain: Let me be useful. Fine. Iām dead. Next time.
DM: Iām sorry. Dragon, your turn.
Shain: Itās okay.
Shain: Iām dead.
DM: His mouth is open as heās preparing to cast the, not necessarily cast, but to brief fire.
Aerendyl: Can I miss you step to the tooth and throw my bomb and just jump?
DM: You totally canāt.
DM: Well, I donāt know. You donāt know. You never tested this. Youāre hoping beyond hope that it will work.
Aerendyl: Itās tempting to do that.
Shain: Do it.
Shain: Just got to chuck it in there. You got to have like name.
Shain: You got to throw that out.
Aerendyl: Iām sorry.
DM: I will also, I feel like I do have to remind you. Keep in mind that this explosion is not triggered by fire.
Aerendyl: I have to pull the pin.
DM: As a friendly reminder, this is a magical explosion. You have to pour magic into it.
DM: You have to pour magic into it and then the reaction of the spinny things with the specific makes of sand and other stuff pauses and explosion.
Aerendyl: Sorry.
DM: Yes, but what Iām saying is that itās not necessarily fire based. So just keep that in mind.
Aerendyl: Didnāt I craft it specifically towards if I pour magic into the fuse?
DM: Second of all, you have no idea. Like you have a general idea of how powerful these bombs should be.
Aerendyl: I mean, it should still cancel.
DM: If it will be effective against something like this and a unit if it is effective.
Aerendyl: If it explodes, it should at least affect the breathing attack.
DM: Yes, theoretically, but keep in mind that if it does succeed, you will still almost certainly be within the radius of.
Aerendyl: Itās not that strong.
Aerendyl: Iām going to jump to the tooth and throw it and then jump around and get under his head.
Shain: I just realized this is our first dragon fight in dungeons and dragons.
DM: Thatās what you like to do.
Aerendyl: What are the odds this hurts my teammates too?
DM: Pretty decent.
Aerendyl: Do I do it boys?
Shain: Two.
DM: Your bombs generally create creators from what you know and understand about a dish feet.
Aerendyl: This shouldnāt create a huge creator.
DM: Well, yes, what Iām saying is that the force is generally exerted upon like 80-ish feet.
DM: So them being as close as they are even through a dragon should theoretically still take some force.
DM: But like I said, youāve never even begun to test this. This is all second hand knowledge and hopes and prayers.
Aerendyl: Before I do this, do I have consent from the party?
Aerendyl: This is definitely a metagaming thing, but I want consent at least.
Aerendyl: The force could impact you.
DM: Mm-hmm.
Aerendyl: Andrew, do I have consent to do this?
Aerendyl: My plan is to misty step onto his tooth, throw a bomb and get under his head and let it explode.
Aerendyl: Iām just saying this could hit you as well.
Aerendyl: There might be some force that hits you.
Aerendyl: Shame.
Aerendyl: I want to do this.
Aerendyl: If possible, can I misty step onto his tooth, chuck it deep into his throat while activating the fuse?
Aerendyl: Iām going to chuck it in there and then can I use theā¦
Aerendyl: Not that, not that, but Iāll jump under his head.
Aerendyl: I might take some fall damage because I donāt know how far he is from the ground.
DM: Iām just going to step up to there to throw it in and then jump down.
Aerendyl: Misty step or I guess depending on how long the fuse is, I would activate it now.
Aerendyl: Misty step, throw it.
Aerendyl: Jump down.
DM: Yeah, you certainly do that.
DM: As you kind of jump down, you hear the sound.
DM: Just as the dragon kind of moves forward as though itās about to throw up.
DM: And then after a couple seconds, it burps with a little bit of smoke coming out as it burps.
Aerendyl: Yes.
DM: You successfully interrupted the metric.
Aerendyl: interrupting in his best case scenario.
DM: Not entirely positive.
Aerendyl: W-Me.
DM: But it kind of took a second as itās struggling to function.
DM: However, my friend, as thatās the end of your turn.
Aerendyl: I still have movement.
DM: Did you want to use it?
Aerendyl: After the explosion.
Shain: Also theoretically, I donāt want to be like a problem, but how the dragons face was 30 feet off the ground, right?
DM: Mm-hmm.
DM: Well, no.
DM: Like I said, whenever he was approaching, he had his head down to kind of be like in eye level with whatās his name.
Shain: Pretty much. Yeah. You would be fall prone and you would have taken all movements. Right?
DM: So itās actually not that bad at all.
Aerendyl: Also, I have my metal leg.
DM: Like it may be like, poor-ish feet.
Shain: Okay. Okay.
DM: Youāre actually kind of crouching underneath the dragonās mouth.
Aerendyl: Including me or not me because Iām like underneath the bed.
DM: The rest of you take two points of nausea damage as the dragon has really bad breath.
Shain: Thatās who exhaustion got it.
Aerendyl: Iām like underneath the bed.
DM: Donāt be your safe.
DM: Youāre under the mouth.
DM: You just get a little bit of the after effects and you can smell a little bit of bad eggs.
Aerendyl: Since I interrupted his action, does that mean he canāt take an opportunity attack?
DM: I canāt pause the list there yesterday.
Aerendyl: I feel like I can dart faster than he can hit me with a melee based attack.
Aerendyl: Unless he uses wings.
Aerendyl: But Iām going to try to dart over to here.
DM: Unfortunately for you, the dragon was kind of stunned by the surprising burp and did not take an attack of opportunity.
Aerendyl: Yes.
Aerendyl: So if I had to guess, I didnāt put enough of the stone inside the grenade to actually do a lot of damage.
Aerendyl: Either that or his height is so tough.
DM: It is not a good turn.
DM: Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, Iām sorry, Iām sorry.
Shain: Oh yeah.
Aerendyl: 5 attacks.
DM: Itās about to be your turn.
DM: The dragon does not take a legendary action.
DM: No, heās just going to save some stuff.
Shain: Well, you get you get three.
DM: Geez.
Aerendyl: What do you think this is?
DM: Oh my gosh.
DM: Yeah, every time.
Aerendyl: We know.
DM: I have actually not done anything but lies since we started session.
DM: Um.
DM: This is what we know.
DM: Anyways, he just kind of looks at you guys.
DM: This is the best you got causing me to burp.
DM: As.
DM: As he saves us.
DM: He takes two steps back.
DM: He just.
Aerendyl: Oh, youāre going to get murdered.
DM: Well, see thatās the trick.
Aerendyl: How can you move when itās not his turn?
DM: He wants to.
Aerendyl: Thatās his legendary action.
DM: He has plenty of movement as a legendary action.
DM: But no, and then all honesty, itās because he simply built like that.
DM: But yes, itās now your turn, Addigan Molinson.
Shain: Three.
DM: Yeah, yes.
Aerendyl: Six attacks.
DM: All right, you want me to do it for you?
DM: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
DM: All right, so thatās going to be stash roll.
Aerendyl: Yes, heās still.
Aerendyl: Ah, fuck, balls, shit.
DM: Okay, how many times you say?
Aerendyl: Three.
DM: Which is an extra what?
DM: Any other bonuses I should be aware of?
Shain: You could do tripping attack.
DM: I really want to want to you want.
DM: Once once again with your thinking youāre just leaving off basically chunks of flash.
DM: Right near the face of the dragon.
DM: As thatās pretty much the only part of the dragon section within range, but itās what you probably aim for anyway.
DM: Youāre youāve definitely gotten through the arm as one of the slides is actually goes through and the dragon begins to what looks like heās bleeding, but it looks like his blood is on fire.
DM: So you.
Aerendyl: You should go numbers.
DM: So that thatās certainly a thing.
DM: You certainly you certainly do a numbers. I need to go.
DM: However, itās the dragonās time now.
DM: And though you were capable of blocking the fire attack.
DM: It doesnāt seem really concerned about that.
DM: He.
DM: Papa, Papa, I just want to make sure this is correct.
DM: Yes, sir. All right.
DM: Okay, okay.
DM: As he will utilize.
DM: Straight.
DM: And I need all of you to make wisdom saving.
Shain: That way, Iāll do the 10 feet of Nate.
Shain: So how much?
DM: Except for dragon.
DM: A dirty 20 very nice that fails.
Shain: Plus five. So 26.
DM: A 26 succeeds.
Shain: Also, you said, hey, I got an Andrew.
DM: A wisdom saving throw.
Shain: Andrew, did you add the plus from Nate? Okay. Here. Chronoship.
Shain: Chronoship.
Shain: You reroll again, Andrew. This is my last one.
Aerendyl: 22.
DM: Chrono shift zoom in and hence.
DM: Lucky.
DM: So genius.
Shain: I mean, thatās a saving throw a saving throw.
DM: 22 that fails.
DM: Yes, youāre safe.
Shain: I mean, what?
DM: What did you got your Ergorn?
DM: Iām so sorry that just fails.
DM: Those that failed.
DM: Unfortunately, you are now.
Aerendyl: I said.
DM: Iām looking for the word I forgot the word.
DM: Thank you.
Aerendyl: Prone frightened.
DM: Well, I might have said it and I just forgot.
Aerendyl: But I can use a lucky.
DM: So.
Aerendyl: I can use another one.
DM: Did you already use one?
Aerendyl: I canāt use it.
Aerendyl: Iām not going to count it.
DM: Well, if you had if you had used it and then roll it.
DM: Yeah, but not not you donāt get the role first.
Aerendyl: Iām not going to use it.
DM: So yes, unfortunately, you two, including anime character,
DM: is currently frightened of the dragon.
DM: Yeah, I know, I know.
DM: Iām pretty sure.
DM: Yeah, for the record, Caitlin Moon song, who goes next can just kind of undo that.
DM: Iām not sure if she has a spell called heroism.
DM: If itās prepared, but I donāt know if itās not.
Shain: Chronos action.
DM: That is unfortunate.
DM: Now with his actual.
DM: Until his turn.
DM: Yes, itās still his turn.
DM: Yeah, itās the end of this turn.
DM: I just told you that you could do that on your turn.
DM: Unfortunately, with his actual big boy action, Mr.
DM: Ergen Wartinson.
DM: Just real quick.
DM: Whatās your AC looking like right now?
DM: 21.
DM: Well, the dragon.
DM: Heās going to do a thing where heās going to roll a 33 to attack.
DM: As he goes to bite down on you.
DM: That wasnāt that 20 right now.
DM: Okay, I was just.
DM: As heās going to go to bite down on you.
DM: And heās only going to thatās it.
DM: Man, that sucks.
DM: I was going to be 29 damage.
Shain: That oneās put me under.
DM: 29.
Aerendyl: How would that put you under?
Shain: Yeah, yeah.
DM: Thatās what youāre paladin.
DM: Well, itās got some hip ones.
DM: You know, man,
DM: letās because heās taking this.
DM: Me and why did he decide to waste like that?
DM: Oh, well.
DM: Oh, thatās why.
DM: Iām so sorry, guys.
DM: I rolled the wrong thing.
DM: Give me a second.
DM: Hang on.
DM: I thatās on me.
DM: I clicked the wrong thing.
DM: I fixed it.
DM: Sorry.
DM: Super sorry about that one.
DM: Does it still hit?
DM: Okay, 29 still hit.
Aragorn: Oh, wait.
DM: I.
Aragorn: Actually, it rings.
DM: Thatās going to be 62 points of damage.
DM: I was wondering why it was so off.
Aragorn: I was in melee.
DM: Um, so it was his mouth.
Aragorn: Iām going.
DM: Itās a bite.
Shain: See that.
DM: It did 62.
DM: Take one D8.
DM: Oh, yeah.
DM: Thatās going to be five.
DM: So.
DM: Congratulations.
Aragorn: Yes.
DM: You got five.
DM: I got it.
DM: Itās already reflected in his head points.
DM: Cat, you cannot be up here.
DM: Iām doing drugs.
DM: Um.
DM: But yes, with that, the dragonās turn ends.
DM: Itās now your turn, Caitlin.
DM: Oh, yeah.
DM: Sure.
DM: Chris.
DM: Everybody clap your hands.
DM: Thank you.
DM: I think I see where this is going.
DM: Thatās why you asked.
DM: Forever go.
DM: Does that count as a weapon?
DM: I donāt know.
DM: I love how this is all happening at the same time that the dragon is just
DM: just trying to get out of the way.
DM: Like the dragon just.
DM: You guys.
DM: Hey, I have a trade.
DM: What you did is just biting down on him and he letās go.
DM: Itās just itās all the same person.
DM: That is before he does what heās about to do, which may or may not affect things.
Aerendyl: I just envy you the fuse of magic.
DM: No, no, actually, you just apply some magic and then explode in your hand.
Shain: Iāll feed it. Iāll feed it a fifth level spell.
DM: Well, let me ask.
Aerendyl: Wait, but enterās there.
DM: Let me ask this.
DM: Are you throwing it from where you are?
DM: Are you running up to the dragon?
DM: Are you trying to do anything special with it?
DM: Or are you just.
DM: So you donāt have to jump up or you can kind of throw it in.
DM: I just want to check.
DM: As you kind of use your perfect weapon control and youāre throwing it.
DM: The kind of bottle.
DM: It begins to just pull in pretty much every form of energy around them, including but not limited to the fire and lava.
DM: As it.
DM: And it is just it pulling the inner the specifically the energy out.
DM: So itās not pulling in the lava.
DM: Itās essentially cooling down all of the lava directly into rock and pulling that heat directly into.
DM: As itās been thrown into his mouth.
DM: You can see what it appears to be just energy being pulled out of its mouth into the bottle.
DM: As you can hear the glass kind of just bounce kind of down in built settles.
DM: And a couple seconds later.
DM: The explosion is what Iām looking for.
DM: How possible.
DM: Itās.
DM: The explosion seems almost direction.
DM: The direction.
DM: Like itās not a fool this way.
DM: Itās purely at the tops and bottoms of the bottom.
DM: So what ends up releasing is what would happen if Godās judgment was cast down as a beam of energy just shoot straight down and straight up putting a whole directly at the neck of the drag.
DM: As it continues to pull in the energy from all around it into this beam.
DM: You notice something peculiar.
DM: The parts around the dragon that itās pulling the energy from appear to just fade out of existence before being replaced as the dragon clops to the ground and disappears as though.
DM: The whole dragon is gone and disappears as if it was purely an illusion from the box.
DM: And with that we will in session.
Aerendyl: I have a singular question butter.
DM: It is gone.
DM: But for the record the beam of energy is still just kind of chill in there, pulling in energy from this round things which youāll figure out what happens.
Aerendyl: Iām going to ask you a question.
DM: Very much so.
DM: Oh that was fantastic.
