Jake table talk

Yeah, well, fuck you, Craig.

Pat table talk

What's up, Craig?

Jake table talk

You know, what's up, Craig? Came in at the perfect amount of time. Now, I'm not liable.

Jake table talk

So.

Jake table talk

I mean, I do love seltzers. Like... Budweiser be damned.

Jake table talk

Seltzer beer is perfect. It's exactly what alcohol was waiting to be this whole time.

Jake table talk

But I'll take a fucking Reds any day, man.

Pat table talk

Oh, they're good, man. You can't find a run here.

Jake table talk

It's so fucking sweet, though.

Jake table talk

So, Pat, you keeping that magical item?

Pat table talk

My keeping what?

Jake table talk

The magical item.

Pat table talk

A magic lighter?

Pat table talk

What am I keeping the magic item? I don't know what you're talking about.

Jake

Didn't you roll for Magic Adam yesterday?

Pat

I rolled for whimsy wall.

Jake

Oh, you did? Okay, roll for the wall.

Pat

And I got a drinking problem.

Jake table talk

Yeah, me too.

Pat

Yeah, that's all I fucking got from the wall.

Jake table talk

Yeah, dude. One fucking drink and Pat's hammered. If anything has alcohol on it.

Pat

Yeah, you see 25 fortitude save, are you fucking kidding me? It's not going to happen. Why do I roll for Magic Autumn?

Jake table talk

pulling that up. I gotta get my fucking Gmail up and shit.

Jake table talk

Did you

Jake

Did you share the Magic Outems tables and the Winslow table?

Pat

I don't have, I should have the Whimsy Wall table with you, but I don't have a magic item table.

Pat

I usually just use the Windows item table on Pathfinder or

Pat table talk

You know, I just emailed jakecbens at gmail.

Pat table talk

Twice.

Jake table talk

Twice. You did not twice.

Pat

Sometimes I use the magic item spreadsheet. It's like all the magic items for Pathfinder. Someone made a Google sheet for it. I've used that before. How do you guys roll on it?

Jake

Yeah, we really need to add to this list.

Jake table talk

some of this shit is just reprehensible.

Jake

Really, you just used the magic item stable, huh?

Pat

Just like depends on the power, like minor, medium, major. Sometimes I'd make you roll like a D4 to choose whether it's minor, major, or medium, or whatever. And then... You know, like... Like, roll me this, roll me this, riddle me that, and then, like, you get a thing.

Pat table talk

I got all my fucking items done, dude. That shit took forever.

Jake

Oh, man, I fucking I'm stuck on items. It's just I'm just so melted away.

Jake

Every time I get to it, it's the last thing I do. I'd be pinching pennies with fucking plus fours and shit.

Pat table talk

I'll be up.

Pat

16K sounds like a lot, but it's not.

Jake

I know. That's why, you know, I just be like, cool, I'll just buy an amulet plus four that gives me punch power and then I wear nothing.

Pat

Yeah, I went the other route. I bought a ton of spells.

Pat table talk

that

Jake table talk

I know you're writing shit, dude. You're fucking... You're spooking me. Fucking crap.

Pat table talk

Not a lot of ideas.

Jake table talk

Yeah.

Pat table talk

I'm basically trying to play a gigantic fucking toolbox. Like if you bring me, you're bringing your whole garage. Like my, it's my vibe.

Jake table talk

Pat, this is the land of make-believe. You got to distance yourself from real life. It's the same. You're playing the same thing you are now, man.

Pat table talk

So I don't remember. Okay.

Jake table talk

If I bring you anywhere, I am bringing you in your old garage.

Pat table talk

I'm trying.

Jake table talk

I just imagined you're out in fucking... Burning Man When you're just like, everybody, we got to reserve food. You just like immediately lock your camper. You're like, it's just us, baby.

Pat table talk

I thought

Jake table talk

Exactly.

Jake table talk

flare gun. You do me because I can't kill myself. You do you.

Pat table talk

I had borrowed...

Nutty table talk

laughter

Jake table talk

We're good. Two shots.

Jake table talk

What a great gift. Yeah, exactly. You're like, hey, man, I know you've been down... You want to give this bad boy a try?

Nutty table talk

Ha.

Pat table talk

like a little kid.

Jake table talk

Hell yes!

Jake table talk

It's the dopest Roman candle. Unbeatable.

Pat table talk

is it is it's the dopest Roman candle 100% I just want a rapid-fire version of it fucking full auto flare gun

Jake table talk

No, there's no need, dude. Get Tracer rounds.

Pat table talk

You can fire them. You can fire flares. They're 12 gauge. You can fire them at a shotgun. So if you had an AA-12, you could load it full of flares.

Jake table talk

You're just launching campfires everywhere, dude. That's all you're doing. Just... You're going to be sick.

Jake table talk

No shit, dude. They could have caught Predator like that. Just burned down the jungle.

Jake table talk

Donnie's here quick. Everybody, hi, don't say nothing.

Donnie table talk

That's exactly what just happened.

Jake table talk

I just...

Jake table talk

Now recording.

Donnie table talk

Welcome, Craig, welcome.

Nutty table talk

I mean, shit, just...

Jake table talk

Okay.

Donnie table talk

Can I get back to the base one?

Donnie table talk

Base one.

Donnie table talk

It has to be on this, right?

Donnie table talk

I mean, no, I have that up, but I need to be on roll 20.

Donnie table talk

You still got to pick your picture.

Pat table talk

Cause I'm shirt cockin' like Winnie the Prue.

Donnie table talk

I didn't, I was looking, I didn't see him.

Donnie table talk

I don't want that.

Donnie

Just google, which page runs Pathfinder.

Donnie

Here's the Witch Page on Breakdown on RGB.

Donnie

But it's also an SRD.

Donnie table talk

What up Nutty?

Nutty table talk

What's going on, Donnie?

Pat table talk

Hola, Natty. How are you doing?

Nutty table talk

Trying to generate my image of my character through AI art.

Pat table talk

What AI art thing are you using to generate it now?

Nutty table talk

Something called Playground AI?

Nutty table talk

It's not going too well. They can't do a bow at all.

Pat table talk

do a pretty good job.

Nutty table talk

The other images are pretty good, but anything I try to do with a bow is just it got strings everywhere, and they're holding the stick. And sometimes the stick's bendy and I was like, what's going on here? Like, that's a really cool fucking image. It's like, it's got fucking strings everywhere and shit. It's like, god damn it.

Pat table talk

Is it free?

Nutty table talk

Yeah.

Nutty table talk

It's free. It gives you something like 1,000 images and Whatever you do, don't mess with the bar. That increases detail because they start making you trying to pay for that shit. Like, hey, no, you can't have that.

Pat table talk

I can describe my shit in the box.

Donnie

Just looking for some

Donnie

Final things.

Donnie

Like a deity.

Nutty table talk

That's a badass picture, but I can't fucking get rid of those. It's a lot of cutting out.

Nutty table talk

white background.

Donnie

with the enchantment.

Donnie

Yeah, you get like dominate person and stuff.

Donnie

I liked it.

Donnie

but...

Donnie

What is it? Dominate person? No.

Donnie table talk

the other ones. Most of them are pretty good. They're like one star. Oh no, this guy does it by color. Red is bad. Green is good. Blue is really good. Yeah, there's two bad. Yeah. Oh, the star system too. It's just the two though.

Donnie table talk

And that's not to say, and it even specifies, they're just situational. It's not that they're necessarily bad, but...

Jake table talk

All right.

Donnie

Yeah. I mean you like deception too, yeah? Yeah, but you kept telling me it was terrible, so... That's terrible. I didn't say it was terrible. Invisibility is helpful.

Donnie

Literally every single one of those things except for the last one you said it was not very useful. Invisibility. Useful. I don't know what the rest of them are.

Jake

It's fucking invisibility.

Donnie

Yeah. Well, see, like, they sounded like you kept telling me they weren't very good.

Pat

Hella useful.

Jake

Super useful.

Donnie

Like all of those are like no it's not really that it's not really this it's not I just said ventriloquism and the other one wasn't very useful.

Jake

I'd say ventriloquism, if you have a doll, other than that, invisibility.

Donnie

We looked it up and I thought it sounded cool.

Nutty

And your doll is sentient and has a plus to his tech.

Jake

Let's be honest. There's no skill in invisibility, but puppetry is a fine craft.

Donnie

I would think invisibility would be really helpful. You could sneak up on anybody, right?

Nutty table talk

All right away. to a boat

Jake

Or run away. Or run away.

Jake

Unless Woodrow Wilson Pat can fucking tremor sense.

Pat

I can't tremor sounds for shit.

Nutty

Shit, man. I don't see why not. You should have like root sense, man.

Donnie table talk

I'm a kid, I'm a kid.

Jake table talk

Right, exactly. This fucking Lorax over here.

Pat table talk

I'm a fucking wood maggot. I'm not fucking God.

Donnie table talk

Why are you scared? Because you keep telling me everything I've done before.

Jake table talk

That's so crazy.

Donnie table talk

I didn't put you anything you picked was bad.

Pat

Although I can't wait till I get tree step.

Donnie

I just discourage you from playing the Mesmer.

Pat

teleporting of a tree on the planet.

Jake

It's the shit. Me and Nettie went over this though, man. We went over this last week. So it's like, yeah, but it's not as good as just teleporting.

Nutty

Right?

Pat

No.

Jake

What?

Nutty

Let's talk about a shadow mage. Yeah, shadow mage is the shit. There's shadows everywhere. A tree is going to have a shadow. And I was like, all right, you know what?

Donnie

I want you to play it.

Nutty

Or he could just be a normal wizard with a fucking teleport.

Jake table talk

I was in your shoes and I got fucking dogged on.

Pat

Yeah. And you know,

Jake

fucking dog. I was like, yeah, but like any tree, like he's just gonna think of the tree and he's like, or you could just teleport inside of doors in the middle of the ocean, whatever the fuck you want. And I was like, I don't know about that.

Pat

And that shit's like a hundred miles of level.

Pat

That's when the game gets fucking nuts. The moment you get sound report changes the whole game.

Jake

It's over, dude. It's over. The whole day.

Jake

I think you should get Dimensional Anchor a level before you get Teleported.

Pat

You do. Dimensional Anchor, you get to level four spell. Teleport's a level five spell.

Jake

Okay, good. Good game design.

Pat

Yeah, I agree.

Pat

You're damn sure I'm going to get that shit when I level up, dude. Fuck people teleporting away from my ass. If I fucking get you, I get you.

Jake

You can cast that shit from prone, dude.

Pat

Teleport.

Jake

Yeah.

Pat

And everyone who has it's going to fucking use it.

Jake

Yeah, why not? Why not?

Jake table talk

Oh, shit, it was Jesse Owens' birthday today.

Donnie

So every even number you get one of those spells, you learn a new spell from your Patreon.

Pat table talk

Oh, hey, Jake.

Jake table talk

Jake here.

Pat

I'm going to get improved familiar whenever we level up. Can I just not choose my familiar until that happens and then choose my familiar? Or do I need to choose the familiar now and then like dismiss him and then get a new one and go through the ritual?

Pat

Like I just not have a familiar until I pick that feat and then go get one.

Jake

What's your what is the ritual persistent again? I know it's a day

Pat

It's a week.

Pat

It's a week of dismissing your... Familiar and then getting another one Utilizing like supplies and money and gold and shit and stuff

Pat

This is what you have to do if you're familiar with dyes.

Jake

That's fine. I'll take it. Yep. 100%.

Pat table talk

I can just never have had one ever. Great. That's awesome.

Jake table talk

You could have had one a long time ago. You know?

Pat table talk

Nope, never had one.

Jake table talk

Okay.

Pat table talk

Been waiting for my luck, Dragon.

Jake table talk

Yeah, I was gonna fucking say, what the fuck was Falcor doing on that goddamn list?

Pat table talk

Waiting patiently.

Pat

Dude, level 7 familiars start getting tight.

Jake table talk

I saw that shit and I was like, what the fuck is that? It had the face and everything. I was like, son of a bitch.

Pat table talk

He's not here yet. My fairy dragon's coming.

Jake table talk

I thought it was you, Nutty. I thought you were fucking character sheeting.

Nutty table talk

I got the fucking horse.

Pat table talk

No, man, I learned it from Nutty, though. You make all your fucking...

Pat table talk

And also, this Black Dragon's not named Falcor. This is Randy.

Jake table talk

Excuse me.

Jake table talk

My uncultured ass. I hope we apologize Pat

Jake table talk

In my mind, Randy will speak like one of the larger Muppets, though.

Donnie table talk

I'm not talking about what... I'm talking about D&D. Is he playing with us?

Jake table talk

I'm sure they'll be here later. 11 or buzz them now. Chats open.

Nutty table talk

Alright, I'm dropping the Native American theme.

Jake table talk

Finally. God, no.

Nutty table talk

Damn AI generator is just not making it work.

Donnie

Do we want to do our... Are we still doing whimsy wall rolls? Is that real?

Jake

That is real. We are doing whimsy wall rolls now.

Pat

Yeah, I rolled and I got alcoholism. So let's see what you get.

Jake

Not bragging.

Donnie

A 1000?

Pat

I guess I got cheap date, really. It's like my character isn't... Yeah.

Nutty

Cheap gate. You really think about it.

Jake

Yeah, write it down. That's a new speech.

Pat

I will put that shit down

Donnie

It's a D what? 1000?

Pat

Yep.

Donnie

Not good.

Jake

You don't know that. You don't know that yet, Danny.

Donnie

Low is usually bad.

Nutty

As long as you don't get the shit that makes you have to wear black paint on everything.

Donnie

Yes.

Jake

That one's fucking raw. That one sucks.

Donnie

Or I could become a centaur.

Pat

Mm-hmm.

Jake

That one rules. That's my favorite.

Nutty

That does suck too.

Jake

That was the sh... What did you get, Donnie?

Donnie

I got a 90.

Pat

Oh, God. I never rolled that low.

Donnie

That's what I said.

Nutty table talk

I put male in my descriptor and I gave three girls All right.

Jake

Donnie, you're

Jake

Pride score increases by four.

Donnie

Hey, I'll take it.

Jake

Came out clean. Unless you want to roll him in.

Pat

Also, there's no, there's no fate point in this one. You told me that.

Donnie

That's what you said.

Nutty

You didn't say that. Thank God I didn't roll.

Donnie table talk

I'm okay with that.

Jake

Although pocket pocketing it, you still have, you still have your role, Nutty.

Nutty table talk

Nice try. That little slight trying to get me to rock and roll today? Alright, shit.

Jake

No. I'm just saying you have it. It doesn't go away. You just have one. So keep it on your sheet.

Nutty

Well, I mean, there's no way in hell I'm going to want to roll it later if I can't paypoint it.

Pat table talk

You don't know that. You're going to be a fucking holed up in a fucking corner.

Jake table talk

You don't know that. Maybe old Vinzy cooked something up.

Jake table talk

I heard that. What was that? I was just kidding. I was just kidding.

Donnie

Now Pat got cheap date, huh?

Jake

Yeah, forgetful slut is the feat, I'm pretty sure.

Donnie table talk

Hmm.

Donnie table talk

That's why I asked if you were still interested. I wasn't trying to discourage you from using it. I was just trying to... You were too. I was not.

Donnie

Like I said, the last ability is like one of the strongest in the damn game.

Donnie

that was the only good one and then all the other ones weren't gonna be very useful.

Jake table talk

It's all what you feel like, Ashley. Do you have a problem? What you got?

Jake table talk

I feel you.

Jake table talk

Well, I'm here to answer any questions as honestly as I will allow myself to be right now.

Donnie table talk

I don't know what I'm doing, so.

Jake table talk

I feel you.

Nutty

Can I use my fate point to steal Ozon's stats?

Jake

No, you can't. But I like where your head's at.

Nutty

Just checking.

Jake table talk

Everybody gets a hand job from Ozon.

Nutty table talk

Pretty good engine.

Donnie table talk

Ha.

Pat

can i bank mine and use it later

Jake

You know, I'm pretty sure he'd appreciate that as much as you do. So, yes, I'm going to say go ahead. Go right on.

Pat table talk

Sounds good. 1HJ from Ozone.

Jake table talk

Yeah, but it's like a lot of eye contact.

Pat table talk

Heavy. Oh my God.

Nutty table talk

Yeah, I got it.

Pat table talk

I got that shit in my inventory.

Donnie table talk

And then you got to...

Pat table talk

He's typing all heavy.

Nutty table talk

Yes, whoever decided to stop right there, that'd be the one.

Jake table talk

Hemingway's.

Pat table talk

Yeah, Hemingway, what the fuck's going on over there?

Jake table talk

Yeah, dude. You're going to shoot yourself in the leg?

Pat table talk

Bell tolls for thee.

Jake table talk

While hunting sharks, you badass.

Connor

Yo, what's the max you're going to have a skill up to?

Pat

ranks six skill total. There's no limit. But the maximum ranks

Jake

Well, really? Plus six?

Pat

Well, yeah, because your maximum is your level. That's ranks that you physically put in.

Jake

All right.

Pat

I can, my spellcraft's hella high because I have a high end and it's a favored class skill. And I put six in it. So it's like 15, but there's no limit to how high that could be. And to give you context, they used to say the DC balance spec of 120, you could balance on a cloud.

Jake

I thought it was 60%.

Pat

That's swim up a waterfall.

Nutty table talk

You had cultured fuck.

Jake

I know. I rolled it once fucking 10 years ago.

Jake

Balance on a cloud, though.

Nutty

What's the strength check to swim through Earth?

Pat

probably like 120 What do you think, Jake?

Jake

No, man, that's an 80. That's an 80.

Pat

Swim through land 80. Yeah, dude. Yeah, that's gotta be 80. Maybe even 60. You're just burrowing.

Jake

You're just digging with your hands at that point.

Donnie table talk

Go ahead.

Jake

Right.

Pat

Like you can just get that ability. Burrow's actually a hard ability to get.

Jake

Yeah, it's hard and it's OP as fuck.

Jake

The quickest way you can get it is like being a ratkin and taking the feet. Level two.

Jake

That fucking gunslinger rat dude just burrow and just pop up with your guns is fucked up.

Donnie table talk

That's all about that gunslinger frog, bro.

Nutty table talk

You're entering a burrowing discussion, Donnie.

Jake

Yeah, dude. Let's see your toxic skin do that.

Jake

I wanted to make a fucking wrestler frog so bad with that toxic skin, dude. I tried.

Jake table talk

I tried.

Donnie

I don't know if a small creature is the best wrestler.

Nutty table talk

An excited try.

Donnie table talk

Yeah.

Jake

The quickest way you can do it is going, there's a couple ways, but in the same turn to grapple and pin somebody bigger than you so you'd have to increase your size immediately and then grab somebody and move them around. And that's like level 16 shit. And that's like 19 feet, headlocks of feet. I don't want to get into this. I don't want to get into it.

Nutty

It's insane how much grappling... How much it takes to grapple someone and fucking how high the level requirements get.

Jake

It's stupid

Nutty

to be a 16 fucking level grappler while mages are fucking summoning demons and shit.

Jake

Yeah, you can fly and summon a horde of demons and then I'm getting somebody in an arm bar. It's fucking stupid.

Nutty

You're just arm barring one demon.

Jake

You get a chance. You get the opportunity to fail that fucking role.

Nutty

You summon how many demons? Seven of them? Well, I got that one. Oh, wait. What did you do? You summon seven more demons? I'm still working on this one over here. God, fuck.

Jake table talk

Exactly. This is my bitch.

Jake table talk

Walking up to it like Conor McGregor and shit

Nutty

succeeded in your grapple. Next turn, he can pivot and put his arm behind his back. He's just like an eight-demons-leg seized to a town. All right, I got this one. All right, buddy, you're with me.

Jake table talk

Yeah, also, one of those demons, Pat used it on me, like, I want to say, like, last year. Fucker pinned me to the ground and then breathed, like, necrotic damage in my face and, like, minused all my score. Same turn. I was like, what the fuck is this?

Donnie table talk

I'm sorry.

Nutty table talk

This is bullshit.

Jake table talk

I was so pissed. I was my wrestler too and he just grabbed me and he just fucking spit in my face like he was a big brother. It was fucking demoralizing.

Pat table talk

I think they're gonna kill you.

Nutty table talk

laughter

Pat table talk

Oh,

Pat table talk

I can't believe there's product placement in Miyazaki films. Are they driving a fucking Audi?

Nutty table talk

God damn, Pat, just enjoy the movie.

Jake table talk

Yeah, right. It's Hellsmoving Castle, dude. Imagine.

Pat table talk

That's spirited away. Good guess, though.

Donnie

How many spells does a witch get to learn out of the gate at 6th level?

Nutty table talk

I think that's a really common car down there, so... You just put it in there because that's what he thinks trucks look like.

Jake

I don't know, but that sleep one's pretty OP.

Donnie

Yeah, that's great.

Pat table talk

100% that's me.

Donnie

I don't see it on the character sheet. Or the character SRD.

Pat

No.

Donnie

At, were you looking at... Witch Spells with me here?

Pat

You want to know what?

Donnie

How many spells does a witch learn at sixth level?

Pat

Let me take a look. Learn or can cast.

Donnie

I don't see it in...

Donnie

Well, I know cast I can I can pull up the chart I bet learn how many spells they learn each level

Pat

Like, no.

Pat

Okay, let me take a peek here. Usually there's a second chart. Wow, this is kind of complex looking.

Pat

Okay, this is fine.

Pat

Not clear. I'm going to go look. A witch is familiar as her spell book. She may know any number of spells.

Donnie

Maybe it's under the familiar tab.

Pat

There's no caps to how many she can know. The familiar can hold any number of spells. They can learn every spell on the list. Think research more. Usually it's like a number per level.

Donnie

Yeah, okay, I found it. It's under the Witch's Familiar thing.

Pat

Oh, got it.

Donnie

Witches Familiar begins play storing all the zero level spells plus three first level spells of the witch's choice which also selects a number of additional first level spells equal to her int modifier

Pat

And then two every level.

Donnie

Each new witch level she adds two new spells of any spell level or levels that she can cast.

Pat

exactly like the wizard.

Donnie

Yeah. They're almost identical since the wizard uses the tome or whatever their book and then a witch uses the familiar, but same.

Pat

identical.

Donnie

And then you can add additional spells through a ritual Just like a wizard can studying to add it to their book or whatever.

Donnie

Okay, so first level, so you have, you know every zero level spell.

Donnie

Plus three first levels. Plus whatever your modifier is.

Donnie

Sorry, how many times?

Donnie

modifier is for so

Donnie

First level spells you learn

Donnie

Seven at first level?

Donnie

Um...

Donnie

Hey Pat, for a wizard,

Donnie

At each level you learn two spells I'm assuming. Is that also plus your wisdom modifier?

Pat

No, you only get the intelligence bonus spells on first level. And then after that, it's just a flat two.

Pat

So really, I mean, like, you have to fucking meet wizards and buy scrolls to put into your bell book or else you're going to be pretty limited.

Pat table talk

Which I did a shit ton of. I'm trying to be a fucking multi-tool up in this bitch.

Nutty

Just apply that cheese, man. Say you already know Donnie and learn his spells that he learns.

Pat

He's got witch spell.

Jake table talk

Nah, man. I mean, what are you talking about?

Pat table talk

Is anybody a wizard, actually?

Nutty

Hey, we've been adventuring for a whole year, so anything he knows,

Donnie table talk

So you...

Pat table talk

Donnie, are you a wizard?

Donnie table talk

No, I'm a gunslinger. This is, I'm helping Ashlene out here.

Connor table talk

Me?

Pat table talk

Oh, but she's doing which?

Nutty table talk

Hey, got any wizards out here? Who's the wizard? Raise your hand.

Pat table talk

Dude, I'm just trying to get myself some spells.

Jake

Okay, we have a wizard. Give me a place. Give me a place. A pinball shot.

Pat table talk

pinball shop what are you talking about Jake you're doing some fucking improv oh pinball wizard nice

Jake table talk

Pinball wizard?

Donnie

I think witches and wizards can learn from each other

Pat

Really?

Jake

I don't think they can grab each other's books, dude.

Pat

I mean, a witch? What am I learning? It's from your familiar.

Jake table talk

That came off pretty fucking classist, Pat.

Jake

You're like, what the fuck am I going to learn from your animal? From your familiar...

Donnie

I don't get one.

Jake

That's fine. You want a magical item anyways.

Pat

Oh man, they're so... They're so cool. Fucking... Which spells? Marionette Possession?

Jake

Witches can... Witches can make their own. Cursed items.

Pat table talk

Cam.

Donnie

Yeah, totally can.

Jake table talk

Pretty dope to set up a curse shop. I don't know. Make a couple signs.

Jake table talk

Start a business.

Donnie

Oh shit. All businesses are allowed, huh?

Donnie table talk

I would definitely do that.

Jake table talk

This economy thrives on the free market.

Jake table talk

But I am Nancy Pelosi, motherfuckers.

Donnie

Okay, so you have nine spells that have to be first level.

Donnie

So you can pull up your spell list and look through the first level spells and pick nine of them to learn.

Donnie

Hmm.

Donnie

You can probably just Google

Donnie

Which spells Pathfinder?

Donnie table talk

Not top one, I think was fun.

Pat table talk

Wait, what happens in this movie? Like, everyone who ate the food turns to spirits?

Donnie table talk

What's that?

Pat table talk

In spirit of the way, why did the people turn to spirits?

Pat table talk

Oh, because they're gluttons.

Jake table talk

Because the human, it's very rude. Very rude. Go into a place and eat that fucking food. Well, yeah, we'll fucking fuck around and find out.

Donnie

Your level one selections and your level two selections.

Pat table talk

Oh, and then the daughter, since she didn't eat it, she didn't turn. Got it.

Jake table talk

It's so scary. I can't, I just, that's so terrifying. I don't know. Like that shit, watch the spirited away when you're old is fucked up. You know, I'd be like, Oh, this poor girl.

Jake table talk

Fucking parents just get polymorphed right in front of her eyes. No hope.

Donnie table talk

That's like, that is awful. Poor kid.

Donnie table talk

understand why that's like a kid movie that's that is like torturous

Jake table talk

Yeah, she gets a job at a fucking bathhouse. Like, what's going on here?

Nutty table talk

Well, because as a kid, it's adorable to have your parents turn into pigs.

Donnie table talk

Of course.

Jake table talk

That is true. Fuck adults, dude.

Nutty table talk

I'm sorry.

Donnie table talk

I guess.

Donnie table talk

I was- that traumatized me to be fair. Like... That movie freaked me out.

Donnie

So you just pick anything? Mm-hmm.

Pat table talk

here

Donnie

You said 9 level 1? I'm on your level two.

Donnie

I WANT TO DO THAT.

Donnie

Can't learn level twos until third level.

Donnie

So at third level, you learn two spells. Fourth level, you learn two spells. So you could say four, but you could also, if you like additional ones, you could, instead of picking third level spells at levels five and six... We can pick more 2 to 2 levels.

Donnie

to zero levels. How many am I supposed to have of those? You know all of them.

Donnie

Once you know a spell, you'll always know a spell. But you can only prepare so many spells a day.

Connor

Are Garland's considered weapons?

Donnie

Our gauntlet

Jake

Everything's considered a weapon and there's no such thing as a non-lethal weapon.

Jake

There's no such thing as a non-lethal weapon.

Donnie

Oh, but there are weapons that can do non-lethal damage.

Jake

I was saying in general, but yeah.

Jake

Damn, dwarves are actually pretty sneaky or OP, dude. Holy shit.

Jake

That plus one to AC. They get like plus three automatically.

Jake table talk

So Ozone won't be on until a bit, but I have the maps. I mean, I got to start. I'm almost ready to go. How are we all feeling?

Donnie table talk

Getting there.

Connor

I haven't done items yet.

Pat table talk

I am ready whenever y'all are.

Donnie

I don't totally have all my spells yet, but that's okay.

Pat table talk

We'll sit down and wait until everyone's a bit more dialed. That was kind of the reason for the early start. All good.

Jake table talk

Yeah, no reason at all. Just gauging the room, man.

Donnie

I mean, I don't care. I keep working on it while you go.

Pat

What you working on there?

Pat

What you on there, Connor?

Jake table talk

Oh, no.

Connor

I'm picking my last two feats right now.

Connor

And then after that I just need to do items.

Pat

I highly recommend the resistance item plus one or plus two. Really nice.

Connor

We're talking about the cloak.

Connor

yeah i also need to spend because my curse is covetous which means i have to spend like 500 plus 100 per level so i need 1100 worth of non-magical items on the

Jake

I'm personally a big fan of the Phoenix robe and the carrying armor.

Jake

It's armor that if you get knocked to zero hit points, it brings you upright and then slowly just floats you to safety. With your unconscious ass.

Jake

It saved me a couple of times.

Donnie

Wait, how many second level spells am I supposed to get? Four?

Donnie

Is that what Donovan said?

Jake

Level six, which?

Donnie

Yeah.

Jake

What is your, you use intelligence, correct?

Donnie

Yeah.

Jake

it looks like three level two spells and two level three spells.

Donnie

And then that's it.

Donnie

for spells.

Jake

Yes. How many hexes do you have right now?

Donnie

I don't know the answer to that.

Donnie

Where does it tell me that?

Donnie

What are you looking for?

Donnie

I just asked me how many

Jake

I was talking without pushing the talk. As you scroll down, you'll see the table. On the far right, you'll see spells per day and spells known. Right under that, it'll see

Jake

And then you follow the line.

Donnie table talk

You cut out in the beginning.

Jake

All the way to the side.

Donnie

Which page? He recorded your hexes last night.

Jake table talk

The one in Discord?

Donnie

That's the problem. That's what I'm trying to figure out where they are.

Jake

Yeah, no, it's tough. So you just scroll down, you just go to the page and scroll down a little bit, and then it'll have this big table. Donnie will show you.

Donnie

You put them... here. I think you were trying to use this. Yeah.

Donnie

Yep, those are your hexes. Okay.

Jake

Are you a good witch or a bad witch?

Donnie

Ish.

Donnie

Have you chosen your alignment yet?

Donnie

that means, so no.

Jake

Ha!

Jake

Bad-ish. So what are we doing? Lawful Evil?

Donnie

The aimants are picking up and obviously how you're here to see the reactions throughout the game. There is lawful good.

Jake

The alignment, it's a very, yeah, it's a very detailed class about how you act.

Donnie

That definitely wouldn't be that

Jake

Don't say it with such disdain, Donnie. Come on. Give a little fucking ambiguity to it.

Donnie

There is neutral good. There is chaotic good. And then we move into the neutral side. There is... Lawful neutral. There is true neutral or neutral. Okay. And there is chaotic neutral. And then on the evil side, lawful evil, neutral evil.

Donnie

chaotic evil

Donnie

descriptions anywhere? I'm sure there are.

Jake

Yeah, Donnie, give her the images, just Google images that and it'll be like the Joker. It'll give you a much better aspect of it.

Jake

I'm serious. A lot of people do that. Like they get, they get that system because they can see like famous characters. It's actually really cool.

Donnie

That would be helpful.

Donnie

Probably chaotic neutral then.

Donnie

Okay. I suppose.

Donnie

based on those pictures. And I mean depending on your actions in game your alignment can shift too.

Donnie

It doesn't really hold sway over a lot of things. Except for some classes have to be

Jake

Chaotic Neutral is a classic. You're always safe.

Donnie table talk

Yep, that's generally my mindset on everything.

Jake table talk

Being a dick all the time.

Donnie table talk

but smart about it.

Jake table talk

Right. Well, I mean, you know, acknowledgement isn't a cure to the problem. You know, you just know that you do it.

Donnie

Here it is.

Donnie

I'd still pick Chaotic Mutual.

Nutty table talk

Sweet Jesus, Donnie. What are you doing with that microphone?

Donnie table talk

I ain't even touching anything.

Nutty table talk

Sounds like you're hitting it with your hand.

Pat table talk

Yeah.

Donnie

I guess I'm done.

Donnie

With your first levels? Okay. Now for level 2s. They told me two level twos.

Donnie

You could take two level twos at third level and another two at fourth level.

Donnie

And then four level threes.

Donnie

I can't believe.

Donnie

because you get two per level and you can take,

Donnie

A witch might know any number of spells, she may choose and prepare her spells, blah.

Donnie

she adds two new spells to any spell level or of any spell level or levels that she can cast based on her new wish level to her familiar

Donnie

Yeah, you get four. I'm going to kill us.

Pat table talk

Whose mic is going crazy? I'm hearing a ton of weird sounds.

Donnie table talk

It could be mine. I'm on my laptop mic.

Donnie table talk

Let me see.

Pat table talk

Maybe reduce sensitivity. It's picking up your hands, I think.

Jake table talk

Push the talk, man. What is this, an Xbox Live fucking room?

Donnie table talk

Jesus. You and your damn poster talk.

Donnie table talk

Can you guys still hear me?

Jake table talk

Yes, sir.

Pat table talk

clear

Donnie table talk

Background noise better?

Jake table talk

Much better.

Donnie table talk

Gambling, I'm in.

Donnie

So those are all the spells you know right now. Yeah. you... can prepare

Donnie

Sixth level, you can prepare four zero level spells, or they're also referred to as cantrips. Three first level, three second level, two third level.

Donnie

Three first.

Pat

Which is not just cast like infinite tantrums.

Donnie

Three seconds.

Jake

Those are the hexes.

Donnie

Two third. What's that about witches, pet pat?

Pat

what the fuck you say about Witcher? I'm wondering if they can just cast as many zero levels as they want.

Donnie

No, I don't think so. They know all, but they can still only cast for a day, I'm pretty sure. I think they get bonuses for their int modifier or something.

Donnie

Witches can prepare a number of cantrips or zero level spells each day as noted on the table. These spells are cast like any other spell, but they are not expended when cast and may be used again. Antrips prepared using other spell slots due to metamagic feats, for example, are expended normally.

Pat

So they're not expended. So you can cast as many as you want.

Donnie

You can still only cast four a day, but you can cast one spell four times if you want.

Donnie

as all the others.

Pat

Didn't it just say cantrips aren't expended?

Jake

He's reading to find out where you're wrong, Pat.

Donnie

I'm aware.

Jake

Yeah.

Donnie

does see you still have to choose and prepare for but you can cast those for infinitely

Pat

Yeah.

Donnie

Seems strong, but...

Jake

So no, so you don't have infinite cantrips. You can only cast four infinite.

Donnie

Yeah.

Pat

Yeah. Boy, was I wrong.

Donnie

So what's the answer? So you can only prepare four, but you can cast those four as many times as you want.

Pat

Prepare for different kinds and then cast those as many times as you want.

Donnie

And you can change this with eight hours of rest and commuting with your totem. your spell list.

Donnie

Change it how? You can sub in any other spells you know. Nice.

Donnie

if you want to

Jake table talk

And make sure you choose food and water because in this game we will be eating. I'm just kidding. Imagine if I was like that.

Donnie table talk

Well, it wouldn't affect Richard because he always plays Android.

Pat

Also keep track of every single pound, ounce, gram for over encumbrance.

Jake

Right.

Donnie

Was that all I had to do?

Pat table talk

Next you're going to tell me I have to keep track of gold, Jake. Fuck.

Jake table talk

Yeah, you do. Big time. Especially you.

Jake table talk

You're like, you're going to nickel and dime me? I'm like, that's what nickel and dimes are for, dude.

Pat table talk

I'm sorry.

Jake table talk

What are you fucking doing here?

Jake table talk

That's why we have nickels and dimes to count them. The fuck.

Donnie

let's see feats you get feats at what every odd level

Donnie

Is that right?

Jake

every you get you get it you get it at third level and then every three levels thereafter yeah

Donnie

You get a feat at first level, don't you?

Jake

Humans get to...

Jake table talk

Pat, you hear me?

Jake table talk

What's up?

Pat table talk

I'm an elf.

Pat table talk

my elf was a year and never heard of me.

Pat table talk

some crazy shit. Playing some out of pocket shit.

Donnie

You start with one and you get in a disco suit with every odd number.

Jake table talk

Elf Woodmage, a.k.a. Abracadaniell, a.k.a. The Leaf That Never Sleeps.

Donnie

We'll start with three.

Pat table talk

AKA the leaf that never sleeps AKA one with the wind branches flashing to win

Jake table talk

AKA the Lorax dripping.

Pat table talk

AKA I'm in your backyard slipping.

Pat table talk

Break up these wet leaves, yo. I'm Abraka Daniel.

Jake table talk

Somebody rake these leaves. We came to rake your leaves, sucker.

Jake table talk

Pat, just out of fucking random curiosity, how many maps have you dynamically lit that we have not seen?

Donnie table talk

All right. So here are...

Pat table talk

10, maybe 6, something like that.

Donnie table talk

recommended feet on RGB

Jake table talk

Sounds about right.

Pat table talk

You left one module midway, so that was fully done. The Demon Web Pits with the Loth. So that was like five. And then the rest of the Ravenloft Castle, and then maybe like one random one.

Donnie table talk

I'm familiar with the places, you know,

Donnie

That extra hex. take that feat and get it.

Donnie

Split hex.

Jake table talk

I'm doing a big one right now and I'm like, yeah.

Pat table talk

it's kind of calming you know just click

Jake table talk

It kind of is. It kind of is. It's kind of like the simplest way.

Pat table talk

You know what I mean by don't make them too long though, right?

Donnie

That requires 10th level, so that won't work.

Pat table talk

Never mind. You'll figure it out.

Jake table talk

What the fuck you mean?

Pat table talk

Well, so, what do you mean?

Jake table talk

No one just figured me out. Just let me know. I'm a smart kid.

Pat table talk

to Abra-Slam, y'all.

Jake table talk

It's like the fuck

Donnie

occurs text be kind of cool so each hex can only target something once regardless if they make their saving throw or not. This will allow you to target anything a second time. Yeah, that would be helpful.

Donnie

So if you pull this up in Google you can copy and paste all this name, prereqs, short description, benefit, normal, all that jazz into its appropriate category there.

Donnie

Did you Google a cursed text?

Connor

Yeah.

Donnie

You wanna just that specifically? Yeah.

Donnie

Because there's a feed it won't pull up in the hex page.

Donnie

And then just copy all of that title at your short description and then everything else is labeled.

Donnie

Spell penetration is probably pretty useful.

Donnie

Just because spell resistance becomes more of a thing

Donnie

you want your spells to have better odds of getting through it.

Donnie

Because there's nothing more frustrating than playing a caster against somebody with spell resistance that you can't get past. Yeah.

Jake table talk

I heard you.

Donnie table talk

You know what I'm talking about.

Jake table talk

No, I'm talking to Connor.

Jake table talk

It was like full Elvis. And I was like, yeah, baby mom. And he's like fucking Elvis.

Connor

so my oracle curse requires me to wear clothing with 500 gold wait one second

Donnie

And I think Extra Hex is your next best outfit.

Jake table talk

Connor, that is so bad. Dude, that is such a bad... Dude, you got to keep that shit mint, bro.

Donnie table talk

And we just got to go back and look at another one.

Pat table talk

Amen.

Jake table talk

You get one blood stain. You get one blood stain. That fucking shit drops in price and you were sick.

Connor

Look at...

Connor

No, look, all right, so all oracles have to choose a curse, and that's by far the least bad one. I mean, there's one that makes you blind, but after the fifth level, it gives you, oh, you get increased distance to 60 feet, then 10th level blind sense, and then eventually you get blind sight. So eventually your curse goes away, and it's no longer a curse.

Jake

That's if you achieve a quest or some shit.

Connor

No, not at all. It's just, So, Oracle's Curse is based on an Oracle level plus one for every two levels of hit dice. one for every two levels or hit dice other than a word I send you the link to it.

Jake

What one did you choose?

Connor

I chose Cubbies, the one that requires me to find yourself drawn to being the luster of a wealthy living

Donnie

Is there hexes on you?

Donnie

Not on the spell page. It's a separate list. Well, I mean on the... It's on the SRD somewhere. It's easier just to Google it.

Jake

Who's your God?

Connor

Charon but I don't really need I don't really need to actually choose a DD because oracles worship all gods

Connor

But if I wanted to do something like obedience, I'd have to choose a specific one. Instead of doing obedience, I did Eldritch Heritage and Skill Focus for more debuffs.

Donnie

So yeah, it's a pretty good list.

Connor

I'll go on all the videos.

Jake

Your curse can't be removed without the help of the deity.

Connor

yeah i got rid of the feet that required me to have the accursed or the be cursed

Donnie

Evil is pretty good

Connor

the accursed feet it gave you like plus five spell resistance and then an extra one for every level

Jake table talk

You want to throw that to me?

Donnie

Slumber. I mean, you've got a lot of cool options. I'm just going to flip through and keep finding something you like.

Donnie

I already have the spell sleeve. Oh, okay, cool.

Jake

So your curse is your clothing, your material wealth, as it were.

Jake

your addiction to it. But your flashy Like you are you are only as good as an Oracle as you are to the people who you're trying to just like explore your wealth in general.

Connor

Yeah, I mean, it fits perfectly with a cult leader.

Jake

Yeah, basically any fucking person talking or anyone, you know,

Jake

Late night Christianity fucking demons.

Jake

But that's your curse, so you just need the wealth. God wanted me to have the jet. God bought me a jet, motherfucker.

Jake

So that's your curse.

Connor

There is a fucking ton of them now. One of them is deaf.

Connor

the one that makes it breathe underwater

Donnie

I wish it looks like a good one.

Donnie

Yeah. If you want to help out the team, that's pretty solid.

Donnie

Child sent.

Donnie

The witch gains the scent ability but only with respect to humanoid children and immature animals. She could sniff out a child's hiding place or a den of wolf pups.

Jake table talk

Yeah, just in case you want to eat a kid, dude.

Donnie

I think one of the major hexes for witches involves cooking children.

Jake

Yeah, witches.

Donnie

which is brew.

Donnie

I know it's in here somewhere.

Donnie

Oh, cook people.

Donnie

Pretty cool. Actually, yeah, I like that. It's a grand hex though. You can't take it with his feet.

Connor

Jake, how much do you think the Elvis price of the gear weighs?

Donnie

Fortune or combat hypnosis.

Jake

Waze, Bells and Whistle, Full Elvis fucking Presley. You're looking at fucking like 20 pounds of gear, bro. Hair included.

Donnie

Combat hypnosis.

Jake

No, way less than that. He wore a onesie with some boots. So maybe like... Seven pounds.

Connor

all right now i'm starting my items

Connor

what was that cloak that you were talking about pat

Pat

algorithm sense plus two

Donnie

We have fortune which could potentially give you guys good luck for one round or just like a DPS kind of thing.

Connor table talk

I think we primarily need DPS.

Connor table talk

Because Owen's a bard. i'm just pretty much a debuffer pat you're wait pat you're a wizard right

Pat

Yeah.

Donnie

Yeah, I don't particularly care which one. I just... whatever makes more sense. I mean, combat hypnosis, it just fascinates the creature. Well, I mean... Yeah, but...

Donnie

still,

Donnie

It's him to stop. what they're doing.

Donnie

So it acts as hypnotism.

Donnie

It's only one creature at a time, but...

Donnie table talk

Nutty, what are you playing?

Pat table talk

Yeah, Nuddy, what the fuck are you playing?

Connor

I can wear stuff over the Elvis getup, right? Those are just close.

Jake table talk

I'm sorry.

Jake table talk

I'm playing a paladin named Jake.

Pat table talk

Yeah, now that you plan to follow him, Jake.

Jake

A lot of hay coming back there. I just wanted a blanket.

Jess table talk

Gillop.

Donnie table talk

Hello.

Jess table talk

Hey, gang.

Donnie table talk

What's happening?

Jess table talk

I did it. Just barely, but I fucking did it. I'm here.

Jake table talk

Great job.

Pat

I also just finished my character.

Jess table talk

Fucking did it, gang.

Jess table talk

Dream Team.

Jess table talk

Rich is still trying to get, like, logged in to Discord. But he'll be here shortly.

Donnie table talk

Excellent.

Jess table talk

They must have updated Roll20 because this time it told me why it's not working on my iPad. Apparently dynamic lighting and iPads, they're just like, no, we're not doing that.

Pat table talk

Oh.

Jake table talk

Oh, they just didn't have the outsource to code?

Pat table talk

Probably it's not enough system.

Jess table talk

or something.

Pat table talk

Something or other.

Jake table talk

I bet you it's fucking Apple. I bet you it's fucking Apple, actually.

Jess table talk

Fuckin' Apple, man.

Pat table talk

I don't know. It works great on my MacBook.

Jess table talk

Weird. Yeah, it must just be not wanting to do the coding for iPads specifically or something. I don't know. I'm not questioning it. I'm just happy that I'm not going insane.

Jake table talk

Hear.

Jess table talk

fucking team folding boat again.

Pat table talk

Oh, you get in a folding boat.

Jess table talk

Fucking folding boat. I've gotten it a couple times and never gotten to, like, use it.

Pat table talk

How big is the golden boat?

Jake table talk

Way to go.

Pat table talk

How big is your folding boat?

Jess

It's like a box, but you use a command word. Well, there are three different command words. One turns it into like a little rowboat. One turns it into like a ship and one puts it back in its box form.

Pat

I...

Jake table talk

Gee, shit. Gee, shit. I'm a big fan of Belt Snake myself.

Nutty table talk

Did someone say boat?

Jess table talk

Hell yeah man! We got a boat!

Nutty table talk

Hell yeah.

Jake table talk

And then he's got a boat to guard. He's a happy man, dude.

Jess

Oh, whimsy. Well, what's the deal with the whimsy rule?

Jake

None. You can either pocket that roll now. Non-refundable.

Jake

You can't point yourself out of this one though.

Jess

I want to do that thing. I want to do it.

Jess

So if it's bad, it's bad, and I just gotta roll with it. Eh.

Jess

It's a roll of 1,000?

Jake

Not even hesitating, Jess. Welcome to the fucking game. Yes, it is 1,000.

Jake

Fuck what that guy just said. What is that? Is it a 2000? Yeah. Hell yeah, dude.

Pat table talk

Love what you're hearing. Listen.

Jess

640.

Pat

Six. Howdy.

Jake

640.

Jess table talk

I'm so stoked. It might all be about to come crashing down, but for now, I'm stoked.

Jake table talk

Jess, come to the secret room with me real quick.

Jess table talk

All right. Secret room. I'm scared.

Pat table talk

Right, what the word is...

Rich table talk

Hello.

Donnie table talk

Hello.

Pat table talk

Summer is...

Rich table talk

What's going on, guys?

Pat table talk

the character month.

Donnie

I found what I needed.

Pat table talk

It was you need done it.

Donnie

Needed some weapon enhancements.

Donnie

Alright, so we started with 16,000 Cloak of Resistance plus one. We should put that on there. plus one at the end of colloquial resistance. That was there.

Donnie

At the end of the description.

Donnie

1,000 gold.

Donnie

Cackling hag blouse. There's a third one too that's not there now.

Donnie

Cackling Hags blouse is 6,000 gold. So that puts you down to 9,000.

Donnie

Wherever the Mythful Buckler and the Harakami were.

Jess table talk

Hi.

Jake table talk

Not so much that that's not a warm welcome.

Donnie table talk

Get the hell out of here.

Pat table talk

I don't know.

Rich table talk

Hi. Hi.

Jake table talk

Hey, Rich.

Rich table talk

What up, dude?

Donnie

1,015. Old 9,000.

Pat

No.

Ozan table talk

Yeah, it's a lot of people.

Pat table talk

What's up, Donnie?

Jake table talk

What's up, what's up there, bud? What's up there, Rosal?

Pat table talk

How's it going, Tom?

Ozan

7% party?

Donnie

That should be correct.

Donnie

It's not much.

Donnie

three gold pieces.

Ozan table talk

What are you? Who are we? Are we somewhere?

Jake table talk

No, we're still in the pre-building phase.

Pat table talk

Nope, we are still...

Pat table talk

Mm-hmm.

Jake table talk

Are you somewhere?

Ozan

I don't know, did we go with the Academy?

Donnie

I mean, put it back there. You can also put it on your spreadsheet with your spells or whatever.

Pat table talk

Yeah, we all adopt it.

Donnie

Just have it just in case.

Nutty table talk

Are we adapted? You telling me I'm adopted?

Jake table talk

No, David, you let the cat in the bag. We're supposed to calm down. Okay, listen, we were going to tell you. We were going to tell you.

Pat table talk

I think we should all be adopted. It's like,

Ozan table talk

Yeah, I think I'm adopted.

Ozan table talk

Yeah, I'm adopted.

Jess table talk

I kind of love that idea.

Pat table talk

We have to find like a cool logo that I can tattoo on all of us.

Pat table talk

so that people can identify us and put us in a box. Yeah.

Ozan table talk

What about Jake's face?

Connor table talk

That's a big thing.

Pat table talk

Jake's what? Yeah.

Ozan table talk

Jake Space.

Pat table talk

Yeah, that's tight.

Ozan table talk

Because he adopted us.

Jake table talk

If you do a pretty cool minimalist of my head, I guess it looked dope.

Ozan table talk

Yeah, it's basically like an oval you know, with eyes and smile.

Jake table talk

No, straight up. You look at the Pathfinder hideous laughter spell, and it looks exactly like me.

Pat table talk

With eyes. Oh, yeah, dude.

Jake table talk

Damn Frankie, just joined the recording, two hours and six minutes.

Ozan

What's the... what town are we in, Master?

Pat table talk

Yeah, Jake, what time are we doing?

Ozan

What's the weather like? What season is it? Is there any fruits that are in bloom?

Jake

It is currently nighttime. It's nighttime. You guys have been on the road all day.

Ozan

Our ladies...

Pat

What does it smell like?

Jake

You are in the back of a caravan right now. And the only thing that you see in the back of the caravan is the man just giving you this speech and this feel of this town.

Rich

Tell us more, good sir.

Ozan

Is he going to spiel us?

Jake

Yeah, his name is... Hold on, my Push It Talk's not working. Give me a sec, I'll undo it.

Ozan

Nadi, what did you end up being?

Nutty

A fighter. Ironic.

Nutty

I couldn't find a class that I could ride on a fucking animal and shoot arrows. So I just went with a race that just can fly. Just cut the animal out.

Pat

Okay.

Ozan

So you're like a flying archer?

Nutty

Yeah.

Ozan

Damn, we're going to be cheesing these fights. Just send nutty if they don't have range.

Nutty

We're a little six, right? Don't all mages have fly now?

Pat

All majors have quite now.

Ozan

Is everyone a mage?

Rich

Yes, we do.

Donnie

I am not a mage.

Pat

Everyone but not.

Ozan

I'm not a match.

Pat

I thought you were a cleric.

Nutty

How big are you, Donnie?

Donnie

I am 2 feet 2 inches

Nutty

I'll carry you. You'll just get on my bag. We'll just fucking light them up.

Jake table talk

Donnie, you're two feet fucking tall. Bangin'.

Pat

love that shit. I should cast reduced person on you and make that shit permanent. Make you one foot tall.

Jake table talk

Me too.

Donnie table talk

I might be down with that in all honesty.

Nutty table talk

whether you're willing to or not.

Jake table talk

Dude, Chinese crazy.

Donnie

Although you're gonna reduce my damage down pretty far too, so I don't know.

Pat table talk

Make your ass pocket-sized.

Jake

You can slip through anything. Your AC is crazy high, like, dude, being tiny is no joke.

Pat

Yeah, it's true.

Donnie

Tiny revolvers don't do very much damage.

Pat table talk

Pelican.

Jake

Don't break from that touch AC though.

Rich

I want to get a shot with a Derringer. I'm sure they hurt.

Ozan table talk

I'm about to wreck Jake's shit up with this AC and these skills, these saves.

Jake table talk

Why are you against me? I love you. Why would you do that?

Pat table talk

We're about to fucking beat Jake at D&D.

Jake table talk

No, you're not. You are. I'm going to I'm going to I'm going to drag this out.

Ozan table talk

reels.

Nutty table talk

Don't say that. Don't you challenge the man.

Pat table talk

You better make this shit hard as fuck.

Jake table talk

No, it'll be good. It'll be a good game. Close match. No, nothing below the belt. Looking at you, Connor, with that new Oracle bullshit.

Jake

All right. So, yeah, you're all you're all the back of the caravan. This guy's name is Mitch Copperhead in front of you. He's just a dwarf. He looks just worn as fuck. And what he does is he just hires mercenaries the whole time. And he's giving you the spiel now when he lets you in or when you're like when you guys are approaching the gate at nighttime.

Pat

What's the feel of the carriage like? Is it fancy or is it pretty Spartan?

Jake

It's pretty big because there's eight motherfuckers in it. So it's like a stretch limousine with a couple of horses and one fat cow. Who doesn't give a fuck in front of us?

Ozan

Nice. Wait, this guy's name is Mitch?

Jake

Yes, Mitch.

Jake

Mitch Copperhead.

Rich

Is he using the cow because he can't afford the extra horse, or just a style thing?

Ozan

Mitch, you're our new driver, buddy.

Jake

You know, frankly, that's none of your goddamn business. Maybe a little out on the payments about it.

Rich table talk

check.

Jake

Why don't you ask my wife? She's always on my fucking back.

Ozan

Be a less, Mitch.

Jake

So basically,

Pat

What's Mitch got on him? What's his like, what's his loadout?

Jake

He's carrying a two-handed axe. He's got played on. He's staunchy. He's tall for a door. But, you know, still dwarven. Still tough as nails.

Donnie

I pull out my harmonica and start playing.

Ozan

Is Mitch evil?

Jake

No, he's not.

Pat table talk

All right.

Ozan

Good, Mitch.

Pat

You're not doing a very good job with that harmonica work.

Pat table talk

No, I'm not talking shit. I mean, I hit him up. You know, I fucking... I try to help.

Jake table talk

help with our moniker.

Pat

I beatbox scat poetry. Over the top. You preaching?

Ozan

I appreciate it.

Jake

Keep reaching.

Pat

All right. So we've interrupted Copperhead with some harmonica beatboxing and preaching.

Jake

perfect. I mean, basically what the gist is you guys, I selected you guys to just come in this town and steal from the bank. Because that's the hardest way we're going to hit these doppelgangers. Bennett's going to have the attack. They're going to go through it right now. There's the lead constable who owns the military inside of it.

Jake

And he's actually running rounds at the bank because everybody's doing triple shifts because everyone's being accused of being a changeling. So what he's got to do is he has to stay in the home rounds out there, visible in plain sight.

Jake

and wait for the rotations to get done. So that's our chance to get him. And he's a known doppelganger. There's been sites of his body being thrown out inside of gutters. And then he's just randomly there, healthy as a horse. No one believes it.

Jake

I've had good scouts out here. They've died for this information. It's worth the money to give you to break into this vault. and inside the vault and inside the chest, Well, I don't know if it's a chest or not, but... God, what is it called? It's this round thing. It's called the dynamic dominant.

Jake

And it's basically I won't get into just what we're going to use later, but

Jake

That is what I need. Anything else in the chest is yours. If you see Cadillac, kill him on sight.

Jake

And he shows you a picture of Cadillac.

Pat

Cadillac.

Ozan

Who's Kallak?

Jake

Cadillac is the head guard of that city. Known fucking... Known locally to be...

Jake

a change.

Jake

One of the main fucking, one of the main changes that's in here, and he's hosting the shit, and he's getting everything ready for war. That's how they're going to expand, basically. There's a small group of changings in here. They're changing. No one knows who the fuck is who, but they're just getting...

Jess table talk

Our changelings frowned upon here.

Jake table talk

Not changeling, doppelgangers, excuse me. Doppelgangers.

Jess table talk

Cool. Just making sure. I was like, oh, shit.

Ozan

Wait, what do you want from the vault again?

Jake

Cale Cadillac is basically it. Sorry, I'm horrible with my disc.

Ozan

What do you want from the vault?

Jake

The dynamic dominum.

Ozan

What does that do?

Jake

I just hired fucking mercenaries. I'm not no goddamn sorcerer's apprentice, but we needed to generate magically

Ozan

All right, Mitch. How much money are we talking about? Yeah.

Pat

Will you say that it's worth a lot?

Jake

I'd say it's worth about $5,000.

Donnie

I take it that's our cut.

Jake

It's exactly your cut and anything else in the vault. But you come and you bring that back or sources will come in there.

Ozan

Mitch, there's seven of us, buddy, I think, right? Seven of us?

Pat table talk

It doesn't really divide well.

Ozan

That's a good point, Mitch. There's eight of us, yeah. I think we should make that 8,000 to just evenly divide, if you know what I mean.

Jake

Roll for that, Ozan. Give me a fucking diplomacy at least.

Ozan

Because...

Ozan

I got you, Mitch. I got you.

Jake table talk

God fucking damn it.

Rich table talk

Oh, damn.

Jake

I mean, you're killing me here. I mean, like 8,000, like I have to go to the higher ups to write about it. But I mean, I think you are right. It is worth it. Anything's worth salvation of this nation.

Ozan

demand much.

Donnie

I'll tell you right now, Cole Hopper has never walked away from a bank job.

Ozan

Appreciate it, Mitch. We're going to get you that domino.

Jake

This is the idea of Cadillac.

Ozan

So do you have any contacts inside that we can check with?

Jake

Yeah, her name is Mary. She's at the bar at the Howling Hooters.

Jake

Mary and the bar is a homie. Yeah, she's at the bar. She hosts it, but she's always upstairs. She never comes down.

Ozan

Let's go see Mary.

Jake

I can use

Jake

Well, I'm letting you off here. Nothing unseen. You got two days to extract that vault. I'm pretty sure she's got a map. She knows the place in and out. Like I said, the volume is going to be pretty low because of the circulating shifts of guards. But it's not without fucking detection. There's got to be some traps and some magical shit in there. That dynamo is like I said, it's worth a pretty penny, but...

Pat

It's good to see Mary.

Jake

But it will be a wool baguette.

Ozan

Where are you staying, Mitch? Because we might need a quick getaway here.

Jake

I'm fucking out of here. I got fucking, I got cows. He's like, oh yeah. He's like, Gus, get your fat ass down here. And then what you see, like you see, you see, you see like this big, like larger than normal bulldog come from the front end of the, of the long cart. And he's just carrying a hat with a big old sack in. And he's like, that's the thousand now. And then the 8,000 when the chopstick.

Jake

And then Gus is like, yeah, I know I couldn't give the five thousand. Do you eat the expensive shit?

Ozan

No.

Jess

I'm currently a weasel, so this all sounds great to me.

Jake table talk

Jess is a weasel.

Jess

Yeah, that was my whimsy role. So.

Pat table talk

You're a weasel?

Jess table talk

Yeah, you're cruising with a weasel.

Connor table talk

Oh, fuck. We got a Wednesday roll.

Rich table talk

Oh, shit.

Nutty table talk

Sweet Jesus.

Pat

Like forever?

Rich

There's whimsy rules.

Nutty

There is, but you can't fake point him, so he might turn into a weasel.

Donnie

It's one and done, Rich. If you opt in, you get what you get.

Pat table talk

I turned into a fucking alcoholic.

Rich table talk

You could be a scout.

Rich table talk

Hmm.

Donnie

Oh, shit. I got a plus four on my ride bonus, Jess. I could ride you. I'm only two feet tall. It's okay.

Rich table talk

Interesting.

Jake

Copper beard looks at you, Pat. He goes, whoa, buddy. He's like, whoa, buddy. Can I have some of that shit?

Jess table talk

CONSENT.

Jake table talk

Womp out.

Donnie

whimsy roll if you want.

Nutty table talk

Boofoo.

Pat table talk

Up top. I give him a high five.

Donnie

It's a home brew thing for a whimsy wall. Basically, Jake is allowing us to make one rule. You get what you get. There are a lot of bad things on there. There are a lot of really good things on there.

Jake

You can choose to roll or not if you do not mark it on your sheet as like a whimsy roll, I guess.

Pat

You can roll later.

Jake table talk

Mm-hmm.

Ozan

I can roll my whimsy later.

Donnie

In the chat, just type slash R.

Donnie

Rule.

Connor

How do I calculate hit points?

Donnie

Please. E1000

Nutty

You calculate hit points. by your class. Your class tells you what kind of d8 to roll, like maybe a d8, a d6. Your first one is always the highest. So if you're rolling a d8, you count the first one as an 8. And then you roll one for every class level. So you roll six d8s. Well, you roll 5d8 because one of them is going to be a permanent highest. And then you add your constitution modifier to each one.

Ozan

How was that real?

Donnie

health world for somebody? No.

Donnie

All right, Jake, Ashleen, roll the 247.

Jake

Copy. Here we go.

Ozan

Not good, it's a low number.

Jake

Oh

Pat

Damn, I got a 10 million on a 10 million sided die.

Ozan

That's what I was asking, is that for reals?

Jake table talk

It's not a place.

Pat table talk

I should have bought a goddamn lottery ticket.

Jake

You know that having that one rule that he had Where is it?

Ozan

How many paid points do we get?

Rich table talk

We're so excited.

Pat

Do it again. What the hell? Oh, I forgot to say slash.

Ozan

You were lying, motherfucker. You forgot the D.

Pat

You're damn right I roll live.

Connor

I rolled a 154, Jake.

Jake

Sorry, I'm looking for the...

Jake table talk

Wall treatment. Oh, that's right. It was in my

Jake

Okay, what were those rolls again, Donnie?

Donnie

Ashlene rolled a 247.

Jake

247.

Pat table talk

Also, I'm a tiefling wood mage with a wood magus with a prehensile tail. I was kidding about that elf shit. Mm-hmm.

Nutty table talk

Taefeling now, huh?

Donnie table talk

And I've played the team playing all-school.

Jake

Aisling, do you have what? Describe your jewelry that you got on or that you have.

Jake

If you close your eyes and you look through your inventory, what do you look like? If you have any sparkly.

Donnie

Alright, I got. silver, super-sil- super thick silver choker. It like wraps up most of my neck.

Donnie

And then a little dangly thing to go on top of it. Or like... Charm. A charm.

Jake

Does it have any significance?

Jake

Maybe a necklace from a lost love or a dead relative, perhaps?

Donnie

Yeah, I stole it from my ex's new girlfriend.

Jake

Okay, good. Well, it turns to coal. Anything you have turns to coal that is a gem or a stone.

Nutty table talk

Cheers.

Pat table talk

Damn.

Jake

I just wanted to...

Ozan

Donnie, explain the fade points to her now.

Nutty

Why don't you have something nice? I can take it from you.

Donnie

no fate points in this roll of those on.

Ozan

There's no fate points? What?

Donnie

It is fake point exempt.

Jake

Rich, what you got?

Pat

Not for this whimsy roll. Not for the first one.

Rich

244

Rich table talk

What terrible fate is going to befall me?

Jake

Roll a D20, Rick.

Pat

That's a good drop.

Rich table talk

That's not good to hear.

Jake

Roll a d20.

Donnie

That one.

Rich

That's terrible. That's never good.

Pat table talk

No, I could be good, Ritz. You know? I wouldn't trip. I wouldn't trip.

Rich table talk

That's probably going to be terrible here.

Jake

I mean, I wouldn't say you could fadepoint that. So you gain one Platinum.

Ozan table talk

I'll be so bad.

Ozan

How many gold is one planet? 10 or 100?

Donnie

And Connor rolled a 154.

Pat

It's 100.

Rich

Are you sure?

Jake table talk

I'm telling you guys, I'm saying welcome to the sink, baby.

Rich

pretty sure that's like a thousand no it's only worth it is platinum worth a hundred or ten

Pat

It might be worth 10.

Jake

Yeah.

Rich

Just making sure.

Jake

And what it is for a 144 what?

Donnie

Connor rolled a 154.

Pat

Oh, it's 10, yeah. It's 10.

Nutty

54.

Connor

154.

Jake table talk

Too many people talking.

Donnie

154.

Jake

and Magic Missile once a day.

Pat

Right.

Rich table talk

No.

Donnie

There you go, Connor.

Pat

Never misses.

Rich

One freebie again.

Pat

Caster level... I guess Castro will be him.

Ozan table talk

I ain't a bitch. Go.

Pat table talk

That's like,

Ozan

What the 200s?

Jake

297. I'm saying these are all good. You'll be crazy.

Pat

260 something.

Jake

What is your class again, Bard?

Ozan

Paladin and Bard.

Jake

You gain all martial weapon proficiencies.

Pat table talk

Barbaden.

Ozan

I think I already had that.

Jake

Well, then you get...

Rich table talk

That's pretty cool.

Pat

All exotic weapon proficiencies.

Jake

If you already have it, then nothing. Whoopsie.

Ozan table talk

Well, better than bad.

Rich table talk

Whimsical indeed.

Pat table talk

Zing.

Jake

We call those fair game. That's fair game here.

Ozan table talk

Yeah, it's fair. I'll take it.

Nutty

Just have them re-roll it.

Jake table talk

Amen.

Jake

It's one and stuck.

Pat table talk

I'm done. All right.

Connor table talk

Well, somebody...

Connor

Somebody sent me the macro for rolling 6v8s. Was that what it was, Navi?

Donnie

Literally just...

Pat

slash r

Connor

Great decent.

Nutty

Wait, I don't know what an oracle is. Is your oracle on the D8?

Pat

D8, 68.

Connor table talk

Hey, Dyson.

Nutty table talk

at aerobics.de

Pat

Didn't you already? Oh, I thought we already did your hit points. Oh, but then your sheep fucked up.

Nutty

you roll 5d8 because your first one's an automatic 8.

Ozan

Oh, that's true. Yeah, the first one was pretty wonderful.

Rich

Yeah, got to put a slash before the R.

Pat

My bad.

Nutty table talk

Yeah.

Rich

fucking syncopate point to re-roll that one and it's goddamn amazing.

Nutty

Well, the ones that are is an automatic eight, so...

Pat

That's true.

Donnie

Oh yeah it is. The first one is automatic.

Ozan

How?

Nutty

one, you maximize.

Rich table talk

I'm sorry.

Ozan

How many pay points do we start with?

Nutty

Six.

Pat

Six.

Ozan table talk

Thanks.

Nutty

So you got 8, 4, 6, Connor.

Donnie table talk

I knew he was the devil.

Rich

Plus your constitution per level.

Nutty

Yeah, modifier.

Pat

Which is two, right? So plus 12.

Rich

Yeah.

Connor

No, mine is just, my constitution is just plus one.

Pat

Got it.

Rich

Yeah, it's a plus six.

Connor

Oh, wait, I should have done that differently.

Nutty

And then your favorite class bonus if you're using that.

Pat

So 38.

Pat

plus six

Pat

Plus your favorite class bonus, unless you...

Nutty

something else with it.

Pat

44.

Nutty

What race did Connor go?

Connor table talk

Dammit.

Pat

Human

Pat

I think everything's a favorite class for human.

Nutty

Nah, I'm just saying, if he went gnome, though, I believe one of his pluses to his illusion DCs.

Ozan

Was it Oracle? Is he?

Nutty table talk

Halfling is one of those short fuckers.

Donnie table talk

We do kill gnomes on sight though.

Connor

Halfling and gnomes have the same ability. When I was reading the grad, it was saying to either go gnome, halfling, or human. The second feat on human is really good.

Nutty table talk

really one of the hardest things to beat.

Pat table talk

Is it having additional feet? Yeah.

Connor

and then the

Pat

bonus skill of return

Nutty

But a skill point pretty much gets to, you know.

Donnie

Every level.

Ozan

That one's just one per level, right? So like...

Rich

I think it says you have to choose the skill point or the HP.

Nutty

Now it's a favorite class. Human also gets some kind of bonus to skill points.

Pat

Yeah, favorite class is the hit pointer. if you don't choose a favorite class ability that's different.

Pat

all right so he drops us off what's it look like in front of us because we've got we're looking for the hayley hooters team mary

Ozan

Yeah, we're going to see Mary at the bar, right? We need a place to stay anyway, so.

Nutty

Howling Hooters.

Pat

powering.

Jake

You guys are in Lidurithal. That

Pat

Lidurithol.

Jake

That's right. It's right next to the Troll Mountains sprawling.

Ozan

Do we see?

Ozan

That's why it stinks here. Hate this region.

Ozan

All right, let's go to the bar.

Jake

The air is filled with a whole bunch of wonder and unease. It's a giant fucking grand city. Immense buildings. A little bit dwarvenish, but it always looks. It always looks and has this stint to it of feudal Japan. A lot of rice sliding doors. A lot of high porches. A lot of dogs running under porches for some reason. Porch to porch, back and forth.

Ozan

Follow the foot traffic to the dense area.

Donnie

Friendly dogs?

Ozan

Find the bar.

Ozan

There's dogs, he said.

Pat

What kind of dogs are they?

Jake

Shibuinos.

Ozan

I'm going to try to call one of the dogs over.

Pat table talk

We're not from here because this is the Doppelganger place, right?

Pat

So do what...

Connor table talk

So everybody's screen black?

Pat

Yeah. What do we know? What do we know about

Connor table talk

I just want to make sure.

Jake

The dog starts barking at you, comes up, you give it a nice little tussles of hair. You tussles of hair? And then it's just

Ozan

Oh yeah, I'm trying to get on his good side, of course.

Jake

Yeah, jump in and just give me some little paws, dude. It's a nice little puppy. Yeah, give him a little... Yeah, hell yeah. He's following it.

Ozan

Yeah, I give him a little food.

Jake

Wait for your dropshed.

Jake

Knowledge locally, Pat. I mean, everybody looks pretty suspicious. Everyone's kind of eyeing you. You know, they see a new gang in town. I don't know if you guys, what you're wearing, but I'm pretty sure it's not color coordinated.

Nutty

Whoa! What did we say we got color coordinated?

Pat

worth doing some sort of faux pas shit

Rich

I have absolutely color coordinates.

Ozan

We have the same tattoo, don't we?

Nutty

Dick with wings? Yeah.

Pat

I sense fives.

Jake

Vibes are a little uneasy. Uneasy isn't a bad thing. Notice and fame are two completely different things. Fear and respect are both two heads of the same coin. Not really.

Ozan

I don't know. Do you think it's the doppelgangers that are uneasy or the people?

Pat

are they all people or are they all doppelganger

Jake

That's the exact question.

Ozan

We should just assume they're all doppelgangers, right?

Nutty

I'm guessing that's what the uneasiness is.

Rich

Fucked up with him that gangers don't count as people.

Pat

I don't know.

Pat

Are we even supposed to be here?

Jake

Whoa, Rich. Whoa. They're a race on this planet, goddammit, and they will be respected. Jesus Christ, you xenophobic fuckers.

Ozan table talk

Was Mitch a doppelganger?

Jake

Good girl.

Pat table talk

Maybe if there weren't all these xenomorphs everywhere.

Jake table talk

Okay, fuck those guys. Okay.

Donnie

Alright, so did Home Dude on the caravan give us a contact on the ground?

Nutty

Yeah.

Pat

Yeah, her name is Mary.

Donnie

Where is Mary located?

Pat

Inside the bar that we're standing in front of.

Nutty

Howlin Hooters.

Donnie

Why can't I go into the bar and get a drink?

Jess

I choose a set of shoulders to ride on because these streets look crowded and I'm tiny.

Ozan

I go to the buyer and find Mary.

Donnie

We're the same size. You can't get on my shoulders.

Pat

You can hop on my shoulders, little weevil.

Ozan

I'm wearing a heavy plate if you want a sturdy surface.

Pat

You want a dirty surface? Jesus.

Ozan

fucking metal.

Jake table talk

Pat, can you give me... Who's sitting in the bar?

Pat

Went to the bar with Donnie.

Connor

I followed Donnie in as well.

Pat table talk

What's your character's name, Donnie?

Donnie table talk

Colt Hopper.

Pat table talk

Topper.

Ozan table talk

I know you were a gnome, was it?

Donnie table talk

I'm a gripply.

Donnie

I resent that statement. No gnomes!

Ozan table talk

Gripley?

Jake table talk

That was good.

Pat table talk

Is the group like a little frog guy?

Ozan table talk

A little frog dude, yeah.

Pat table talk

Yeah, that's tight. He's cool as shit. Just to be clear, are we all adopted by a benefactor named Jake who trained us to be mercenaries?

Ozan table talk

I am.

Nutty table talk

I'm fine with it.

Pat table talk

Because I certainly am.

Jake table talk

A small tear came out of my eye when I read that. I was like, you're goddamn right.

Ozan table talk

Wait, is anyone not, though? Is anyone...

Pat table talk

Is anyone not...

Jess table talk

Are we all adopted siblings?

Ozan table talk

That's the story. Unless you want to not be, it's your personal choice.

Pat table talk

Who's not in the Umbrella Academy is all I'm asking.

Rich table talk

Oh Android and meandered here separately, so I think I'm not adopted. But, you know, looking for greener colors.

Pat table talk

Dude, we can adopt an Android.

Ozan table talk

Or you could be his natural child.

Rich table talk

I'm only two years old.

Rich table talk

a baby.

Pat

Cool. Well, brother's only meeting, so you can stay outside.

Nutty

You kicking him out of the bar?

Nutty

Would you all go in the bar and he told him not to come in? Is that what's up?

Pat

I'm just kidding. We do set up at the bar though.

Ozan

like the outcast.

Pat

Talking to my brother fucking Colt.

Jake

Ah, this... this half-orc looks at you and he goes, hey, Familiars outside. He points to you, Jess.

Pat

Is he looking...

Jess

What? The audacity. The audacity.

Pat

Yo, I have a familiar...

Jake

You tie it up and put it outside. This is my counter. I know it's how it's clean. Zero hair on this counter, right? It's for you. It's for my customers.

Jess

God damn it. All right.

Jake

That one can just fucking talk at me.

Pat

I look at the Weeble and I'm like, you heard the lady as I point to the guy behind the counter.

Jake

Yeah, it's

Jess

I'm headed to the roof.

Jess

I'm out.

Pat

Peace.

Jake

Weasel.

Ozan

Back to the bar.

Jake table talk

Alright, I'm pulling up something right quick.

Jess

So yeah, me and my actual familiar are going to hang out right on the roof.

Pat

fucking ginger ale

Jake

Yes.

Jake

He's like, are you sure you don't want anything? I mean, we got some hard cider back here. He's like, what are you on your period?

Pat

I'm good. You wouldn't like me when I'm drunk.

Jake

I mean, I don't like it now.

Pat

I

Jake

Call me a fucking woman. You make fun of my teeth and my tits. You fucking bringing fair hair over me.

Pat

I'll have a cider. I'll have a cider, but only if you pay for it.

Jake

What the fuck are you talking about? You want to do dishes? I mean, you can do dishes and then you can have all the salad you want. I'm fucking swamped back here. Gobblers are always right to date.

Pat

I'll do some dishes. I'll do some dishes. I'm low on cash. I'll swap.

Pat

I swap. I go swap.

Jake

He cracks two in front of you and leaves them open. He's like, your shift starts in 20 minutes.

Donnie

I take one.

Pat

All right, sounds good.

Ozan

I look at the guy and I tell him about all the time at the monastery where I was cleaning up dishes. I ask if I can get the same deal.

Jake

He's like, fuck yeah, dude, there's a hell of dishes back there. Pops 2 and just...

Connor

I asked him if we can start our shift tomorrow.

Ozan

I high-five and I get the drink.

Jake

I'm gonna roll a fucking sense motive check or some shit on this dumbass.

Jake

He's fair ball, dude. Hell yeah. Two in front of you. I was on these dishes for... Dude, poo! You know what it's like working the bar all night? Oh, God! Oh, my God, you're lonesome. This bar's pretty full, pretty heavy. You hear a whole bunch of noises. Donnie, give me a perception check.

Donnie

That would be an 11.

Jake

You're good. Just outside, where are you rich? Jess, no, Jess is on the roof. Rich, Connor, Aisling.

Rich

Um,

Connor

I'm still at the bar top.

Jake

Give me a perception check.

Connor

I was waiting my turn to...

Donnie table talk

Are we supposed to be waiting for this Mary person or are we trying to find her?

Jake table talk

Try to find her.

Nutty

They're trying to get a part-time job right now to pay for their drinking habits.

Jake

Yeah, no, apparently...

Rich table talk

Yeah. Don't get distracted, Ashley.

Ozan

Yeah, we're trying to gather information. before we rob the bank.

Donnie

Get a drink and ask the bartender about Mary.

Pat table talk

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that, man.

Jake

Oh, Mary? Yeah, Mary's here. Yeah. You want a job?

Rich table talk

laughter

Ozan

Yeah, where is Mary?

Jake

Yeah, he looked like the working type in pretty much swamp. I can't even cover the old red as is. What you drinking?

Donnie

possible drink you have...

Jake

Perfect. It slides a side. It's the Cox over the side.

Pat table talk

laughs

Jake

He's like, Mary, she might be sleeping. I don't know. She really doesn't like visitors here. And I don't even know who she is. Maybe if you want to sweeten the deal. And he rubs his two index fingers together. It looks very awkward.

Jake

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Then he rubs his like index finger and his thumb together. He's like, ah,

Ozan

Mm-hmm.

Donnie

Almost as you are.

Ozan

Wait, did he say that Mary's upset?

Jake

Yeah, Mary's upset. She's not to be bothered.

Donnie

I'm just gonna go upstairs anyway then.

Jake

You can't go up there unless you sleep for the night. You need a room key to go upstairs.

Ozan

Jake, I start distracting the owner, homie. Can I just roll something to start talking to him about my job or something?

Donnie

I just feel the room.

Jake

sevens.

Donnie

Just roll a preach.

Ozan

Yeah, I start preaching. I start telling them about the good Lord.

Jake

Oh, Jesus Christ, dude. Oh, Jesus. Jesus. Fuck off, dude. Are you fucking serious? Yeah, he's like, mm-hmm. He's like, too many dishes in the sink?

Ozan

Oh yeah. 32 on preach buddy. I'm trying to, I'm trying to convert him. Honestly, like he needs to hear about the Lord.

Nutty table talk

Jesus fucking Christ.

Donnie

Have you heard of our good Lord and Savior Jesus Christ?

Nutty table talk

laughter

Jake

Ain't got no mink. You know?

Ozan

So while he's distracted, I kind of motion to go check upstairs.

Jake

He just starts fucking clapping, dude. He's just fucking, he's feeling the spirit, dude. You got him.

Donnie

I steal one of Pat's beers with my prehensile tongue.

Pat

You can have both of them.

Pat

I need to get my wits about me.

Ozan

You going upstairs to check?

Pat

How much is a beer or a room?

Ozan table talk

Ashley?

Jake

Erwin Stead Golden Knight. No, that's way too high. That's way too high. Sorry. About 50 silver.

Donnie table talk

I was not asking you why I'm serious about it.

Donnie

Check.

Ozan

Yeah, Jake, she's going upstairs to check while I distract the homie.

Jake

You go upstairs. It's just a dupe. It's two level. It's a corner turn, corner turn, and then a hallway, six rooms. It's all wood. Very creaky stuff. And then six doors on either side labeled rooms one through six.

Donnie

Start opening doors.

Donnie

find her.

Jake

You start opening doors. By the time you get to door...

Jake

How do I roll where you guys can't see, Pat?

Pat

Oh. You roll to yourself.

Ozan

in your mind.

Jake

I rolled myself, yeah.

Pat

whisper the role to yourself.

Donnie table talk

I realize that's not a very smart choice, but I'm doing it anyway.

Jake table talk

Yeah, be bold.

Ozan table talk

I thought it was a good idea.

Donnie table talk

Holy shit.

Ozan table talk

What the fuck?

Jake table talk

Yeah. Okay, bud.

Pat table talk

Oh, sorry. I was doing something else. Didn't realize that would go to the chat.

Ozan table talk

I was trying to hack it.

Nutty table talk

Patches volunteered to be the first one to die.

Jake table talk

Rock.

Ozan

What are you trying to figure out how to roll to yourself?

Jake

Yeah, what the fuck? I just... Slash W space... GM. That's me. And then r slash...

Ozan

Uh,

Jake

one. Oh, okay. So that's one D one zero.

Ozan

You can use Google, by the way. Apparently, it works. I just tried it. 1D100. Oh, no, just 1D6. That's weird. 1D6 works, but not 1D100.

Jake table talk

Oh, I'm just an idiot.

Ozan

1D 20 works. Google has a whole application built in. Weird.

Jake table talk

Yeah, it's crazy.

Jake

Yeah, Ashley, and you see, you see a guy beaten off. In room two.

Donnie table talk

It's awesome.

Jake

He's like, well, hey, he's happy not threatening. He's just you just that's what you give her opening doors. What the fuck's wrong with you?

Pat table talk

Does he say that?

Ozan

Do you stand and watch?

Jake

No, he does a thing that happens on Chatterbait or whatever, where he immediately sees a girl, then he starts rushing towards the door.

Donnie table talk

Oh, too bad. All right.

Jake table talk

Trying to finish.

Donnie table talk

All right.

Jake table talk

He's not a creep. He was being uncreepy. You're the fucking lawyer here.

Donnie

You gotta be a creep sometimes.

Jake

You're the next door.

Donnie

Yeah, I go to the next door.

Jake

It is locked, but you hear a very rhythmic creaking of wood back and forth.

Pat

Someone's whittling in there.

Donnie

Oh, yeah, that's got to be what it is.

Jake

The wood mage's fucking antennas just perked up. He's like, no.

Pat table talk

Wood Magus, thank you.

Jake

He's like, hold on, hold on. I got a hard cast. Yeah, if you see mage fucking wood mage hard casting, he's just whittling.

Donnie

I'm gonna try the next one after that.

Jake

I don't want to be disturbed.

Jake

And I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, get out of here.

Jake

Who is it?

Donnie

Is that a guy?

Jake

No, it's not a guy. I'm a fucking broad.

Pat

I'm a fucking bride.

Donnie

Are you married?

Pat

Said no broad ever.

Jake

My name is Mary, who is this?

Donnie

Miss Mary.

Pat

I drive a bus in Brooklyn.

Donnie

Yeah, Mary's from the heart of...

Jake

This is... You got a fucking problem with that? This is the reason why I lock my doors. Hours over. I don't do no business after 6.

Jake

But if you got any Paul Moles or like a Seneca, I could use one.

Donnie

We're sent to find you, Mary.

Jake

Who's that? Who's who? Who's you?

Jake

What's your name, Daun?

Donnie table talk

I don't remember what his name is. Was that his name? The dude that sent us his drink too?

Ozan table talk

No, the guy that sent us is Mitch.

Donnie

What? Mitch. Mitch? Oh. Alright. A dude named Mitch sent us. Came to find you. We need your help.

Pat table talk

Well, yeah, we can't tell you that I'm not there.

Ozan table talk

Match.

Jake

Listen, honey, I know a lot of Mitch's, okay? A lot of trains just come to and hit these mud flaps, if you know what I'm saying. A lot of dirt been hugging up under the tires. That's a bad euphemism, but if you use your imagination, you could...

Pat

You can whiff my drift.

Jake

I did this one.

Jake

Did he have a bid?

Donnie table talk

Did he have a beard? I wasn't here yet.

Jake table talk

fat dog.

Pat table talk

He was a dwarf, man. Fuck yeah, he had a beard. You know it.

Donnie table talk

remember anything about a beard. You were down?

Pat table talk

He must have had a beard, dude. He had a big warf and battle axe and shit.

Donnie table talk

No beard?

Donnie table talk

I'm not even down here. being described so I don't know.

Jake

immediately when you say that the door swings open to I want to say like about a good 20% and she's like make it quick You're bugging my fucking sleeping time. Mama never misses a sleeping time.

Donnie

Nobody came up with me, it's just me up here.

Pat

Yeah, we're having a beer at the bar.

Donnie table talk

Have you guys been?

Ozan

I'm busy distracting the guy for you.

Jess table talk

Hey, man, I was outside. I didn't know you went out there.

Donnie

Then I guess I'm gonna shout down the stairs and tell you guys to get up here.

Jake

and when I just go down the stairs

Rich table talk

That's what our centimeters need to figure this shit out.

Pat

I hear her and I get up and walk that way.

Jake

She's like, yeah, go ahead. Sounds smart. She shuts the door. Sounds like a great time. Gangbang's a 5,000, by the way.

Donnie

No problem. We got it.

Pat table talk

pieces.

Jake

I'm not a fucking whore.

Donnie

I'm gonna do Gangbang for 5,000.

Jake

It was a fucking joke. God damn, these fucking ladies.

Jess table talk

I'm going to be her when I grow up.

Donnie

Goodbye.

Donnie

You guys can...

Pat

I go upstairs as well.

Donnie table talk

that I was not here to hear.

Jake

I guess you'll be up there.

Jake

The bartender's like, mmm. You fucking killed it. What am I supposed to do against that 32 shit? Mmm,

Rich table talk

Ha.

Connor

I also head upstairs.

Donnie

Yeah.

Jake

There's 8 months. No way.

Donnie

seriously suck. You're like, nah.

Rich table talk

Follow suit. Till the upstairs.

Rich table talk

There's too many of us for it to go smoothly. At least quickly.

Pat table talk

You go upstairs.

Ozan

What do you guys do when you go upstairs?

Jake

But yeah, the door's shut. She's behind it.

Connor

Oh, we're supposed to fund this, Freddie? She's going to give us the information for the bank robbery?

Jake

She's a very good

Rich

We're here for the gangbang.

Ozan table talk

Yeah.

Jake table talk

You son of a bitch. I fucking walked into that. I fucking walked right into that. Oh, you cheeky cunt. Oh, God.

Pat table talk

laughter

Pat table talk

That's a good drop, though.

Jake

Oh, Jesus Christ. She answers the door. She's like, oh, fuck, you're not kidding. I was just kidding. I'm just a little late. Yes, we all late. What the fuck?

Ozan table talk

Jake, please take a clip of that.

Pat

Does she open the door again?

Jake

Yeah, she opens the door.

Pat

I put my foot in between the door and the frame.

Jake

She's terrified. She's terrified. So she takes a couple steps back.

Pat

Good. I go inside.

Jake table talk

Oh, shit.

Donnie

Why is she scared?

Nutty table talk

Ha.

Donnie table talk

Do you think everybody's there for a game day?

Donnie table talk

Yeah.

Jake table talk

Because of the implication and the delivery. It was pretty sound. Playback.

Connor

I'm going to walk in right behind Pat.

Rich table talk

Go to the tapes.

Jake

She's like, oh, she's mortified. She's like, I'm just trying to sleep in here. I have some girls that's coming here trying to bang me away.

Pat

I just start saying, shh.

Pat

Yeah, it starts cursing kind of louder. And then finally, I'm like, we're here for the gangbang.

Jake

Roll bluff or intimidation.

Pat

Okay.

Donnie table talk

Pat over here just intimidating when the game brings. It's messed up Pat, what's wrong with you?

Pat

Can I roll joke?

Jake

Yeah, bluff.

Jake

Okay. Yeah, she immediately starts grabbing for the window.

Pat

Well, she knows it's a bluff.

Jake

No, if you roll high on a bluff, that means he knows it's a bluff.

Jake table talk

Not low. You're like, yeah, it was still a joke even though it was bad. I'm like, you said the N-word five times, man.

Jake table talk

You fucking Kramer'd yourself out there, dude.

Donnie

and jackass and relax.

Pat

Hey, Jake, I quick draw my wand from my gloves of quick draw shit. What is it called?

Jake table talk

Nasty. Yeah.

Rich table talk

Can we not escalate this? We were here to ask for help.

Pat table talk

I'm not escalating. I'm not escalating. The wand is... I'm not escalating, Rich. I'm not, okay? I'm not. It's a wand.

Rich table talk

We were here for help.

Jake table talk

You just told an old woman you're here for the gangbang with eight other fucking people.

Pat

It's a wand of memory lapse.

Rich table talk

In theory, that was consensual.

Jake table talk

Okay.

Pat

and I use the Wand of Memory Lapse on her.

Jake

Yeah, I guess.

Rich table talk

that's a pretty good call.

Ozan table talk

This is like professional shit.

Rich table talk

Fucking with memories.

Jake table talk

Wait, hold on. You give me a quick fucking second. Are you telling me that you didn't gangbang this old bitch and you had that one the whole time?

Ozan table talk

This is how she's your bank robbery.

Jake table talk

Cool. No, totally. Totally. She's going to be scared all over again for nothing. I'm just kidding.

Ozan

Was she really pretty?

Pat

she has to roll a well-saved DC 17, and if she fails, she forgets what happened during the last turn.

Pat

That's it.

Nutty

Oh, shit.

Jake

He goes...

Jake

fucking deja vu in here she's like who are you

Pat

Oh, we're from the Mitch Copperhead sent us.

Jake table talk

It's copying.

Pat

You know, like he wants some valuable shit, maybe. You know what I'm saying? Like a dynamo, perhaps?

Jake

She's like, oh, are you the nice guys from the, are you, are you the, are you the young kids who go to do the heist?

Pat

That's us, lady. Yeah, we're good.

Jake

Oh, she told me all about you. Come sit down. I thought, shut the fuck up. Shut that fucking door.

Pat table talk

All right, great.

Jake

You fucking idiots. Keep it down.

Pat

We said...

Jake

Real rabies energy, by the way. Real rabies. Sit down. Make yourself at home. There's these encroachments in the drawer.

Donnie table talk

There is no way that Bronx lady has crumpets in there.

Nutty table talk

Ha!

Rich table talk

You don't know where she keeps the crumets.

Jake table talk

I'm fucking...

Donnie table talk

Whoa, what do we mean when we say crumpets?

Jake table talk

She does not have grumpers in there. You son of a bitch.

Donnie table talk

I'm saying.

Jake

Sorry, I thought there was, it's just me being homely, you know, I was, it was like,

Pat table talk

I love how that's the thing that breaks immersion.

Jake

He's like, sorry, I just wanted to be a good host ever since Charlie left.

Pat

Goddamn. Connor, can you rewrite her memory so she doesn't have to have the pain of Charlie anymore?

Connor

No, it's only the last five minutes. Oh, the pain of... Yeah, I'm down.

Pat

We have so many memory spells.

Connor

It is a

Jake table talk

Oh, fuck.

Pat

Maybe we should get our job first before we start wiping this bitch's memory.

Jake

Anyway, she's just like, she takes a handkerchief from her, from her, Brzee? What's the fluffy thing that's a woman's undershirt?

Donnie table talk

Blouse? Blouse. A brassiere is a bra.

Ozan table talk

Love you, woman's undershirt.

Jake table talk

Blouse? Blouse? I knew it was one of the two. What's a brassiere?

Donnie table talk

A bra. Yeah.

Pat table talk

It's a bra. Bra is literally short for brassiere.

Ozan table talk

I think that's the thing that you laid on fire.

Jake table talk

Nah.

Jake table talk

Yeah, I bet you there's a fucking difference. Dude, bras are an engineer of science. Braziers must be on some fucking... On some... On some elastic shit.

Donnie table talk

Where do you think the word bra comes from?

Jess table talk

Are you man-

Pat table talk

No, I like when Jake tells you more about her clothes. I prefer this way.

Jake table talk

I don't know. I think it comes from better get them titties up, brah. I don't know.

Donnie table talk

pieces.

Jess table talk

Jake, just get out.

Nutty table talk

Some things should remain a mystery.

Jake table talk

You broke my concentration. I was trying to wipe some tears from my titties. I got to compose myself.

Jake

I'm just looking for more time. No, okay. So yeah, she stabs her eyes. She goes, I was supposed to give you guys a map and the time of the guard chain. I've been watching them for at least the past couple days. Nothing's really changed yet, but you know,

Jake

When the guards come...

Donnie

around

Pat

What's the name of the bank?

Jake

It's just, there's a couple banks in the city. And it's basically just one of the city banks. It's on the far west side closest to the water.

Jake

And it's just a luxurious old city bank. It's got a big old L on it. It looks like it's the epitome of like a Chase Bank today where they just have nothing but logos and a bunch of dumbass people smiling while they take your money and gamble on your personal look.

Donnie

Have you seen Colt around the bank?

Jake

Cool.

Donnie

Or Cadillac, sorry. Cadillac.

Jake

Can't say I have.

Jake

Oh, that fine piece of nothing? Hell yeah.

Jake table talk

See he comes wrong accent Ha.

Ozan table talk

Is this a personality disorder?

Jake

Yeah, I'm sorry. I just had a quick, a quick lapse of judgment there. Sorry, sir.

Ozan

Side effect of the spell.

Rich table talk

Ha.

Jake table talk

I'm not going to hear you guys cackling. How dare you?

Rich table talk

Ha.

Jake

I gotta stop working. Okay. And she's like, of course I've seen Cadillac. He's the take, right? That fucking, that changing motherfucker. It says changing, the doppelganger piece of shit.

Jake

I swear to God, I can see his fangs when he looks out. He was supposed to defend this city until the last of them. Until they all just took over as cronies. Piece of shit. Don't ever trust nobody.

Jake

He's out there in between rounds. He takes a long post. He just wants to look good for the captain.

Jake

Even though he's the real muscle. If you see any gods or anything like that, run through him.

Pat

I'm

Pat

I'm certain Mary is smoking right now. I asked her if I can bum whatever she is.

Jake

She's like, sure. She's like, tobacco, you want a skookum, or you want a little bit of the hashii? I roll them all over.

Pat

I go for some skookum.

Jake

We call it a plan cake because we plan to get fucked up.

Jess

I'm real upset to be outside and a weasel right now.

Pat

It should come down like a chimney or some shit.

Jess

Do I like looking around on the on the rooftops? Am I able to see into like this window or something?

Jake

It's got its peaks. Pretty snowy town because it's next to the mountains. So there's a lot of sharp

Jess

sharp angles that

Pat

Is it snowing right now?

Jake

But old school wooden roof, you could hear everything that's going on. I mean, I wouldn't be partake.

Jess

Probably can't get in without endangering my life and possibly plummeting, but like I can hear.

Jake

Yeah, you go on the windowsill? She can jump on the windowsill.

Jess

Cool. I'm on the windowsill, me and my familiar.

Jake

littered with cigarette butts.

Pat

I open the window to smoke.

Jake

Yeah, she's been smoking inside with the shit chef this whole time.

Pat

You know what? I fucking thought she was.

Jake table talk

I'm a Fox News mom, dude.

Pat

It's just the picture you painted. I can smell this room.

Jess

Now that the window's open, I'm back in.

Pat

Oh, Jesus, the fucking weevil on the thing.

Jake

Put the clock on it.

Jake

Good night.

Jake

She's like, do you guys got a place to sleep for the morning? You can sleep here. She's like, I'll go downstairs. I mean, it's going to be a little bit extra because now we got to give you guys hidden and unseen. This is the last place anybody needs to see before the job step. If any ward gets around, you're here. You're fucking fucked.

Pat

What about the guy who runs the bar? Can he know we're here? Stan?

Jake

He's dumb as shit. He ain't gonna tell nobody. And if he does, I'll fucking kick it.

Pat

Cool lady.

Connor

I want to convince her to let us leave as we please.

Jake

Wrong.

Jake

Give me a... Unless you got some kind of charm person or spell, you can roll me...

Jake

Promising.

Pat

What do you say to her?

Connor

Jesus Christ.

Connor

I call her a dumb bitch and I say that we're going to stay there.

Jake

I wasn't here to work.

Jake

Like, listen here, you dumb bitch.

Pat

Okay, I used my wand of memory last again.

Jake

Oh, man, this is fucking broke.

Pat

DC 17.

Jake

Can I get a will soon?

Pat

Yeah.

Jake

16 plus one.

Jake

She's like, she's like, don't fucking, don't fucking do that shit out of me. She's like, fuck this asshole over here. No, you don't be seen. You just keep it down and keep it low. I don't want, I don't want any more guff out of you. Listen to me. What would your fucking mother say? You looking like that fucking rhinestone cowboy.

Connor

I feel like she's approaching us in pretty hostile manner. I think the last five minutes would be pretty handy to get rid of.

Pat

Fuck yeah, she's approaching in a pretty hostile manner. That is a giant spider. I'll be right back. I gotta do something about this.

Jake

She's not hostile. She's just talking shit. But I mean, she is talking shit.

Ozan

Appleganger for sure.

Connor

I mean, I obviously can't talk her out of not letting us leave here. So I guess we're staying.

Jake

Please let it be like that. I would love that. Did not fucking seven other people tried. Poor Pat hits her with a fucking roofie stick.

Pat

Dude, the forget me now is great.

Jake

What is that?

Nutty

I'm sorry.

Pat

It's just fucking forget me sick.

Jake

So baller. Poof, what do you mean?

Pat table talk

Best fucking wand I ever bought.

Jake

Okay, she's like, listen, if you have to leave, I guess it's close on the wall one at a time.

Jake

Preferably that cute little fella. And she points at you, Jess.

Pat

So where can we sleep?

Pat

I have to get a room with the lord of the house downstairs.

Jake

She's like, well, she's like, there is more you. You're going to have to bunk up, most likely in room four, because my son's in room two, and he said he'd meet me. He said he'd meet me in this town. He's going to take me out to a nice dinner tomorrow morning. A nice breakfast tomorrow morning. Oh, my head and my sugar knife.

Donnie

She's quite talkative.

Jake

And she gives you the keys to room four.

Donnie

Wait, why does she have the keys?

Connor

I feel like this hotel is pretty gross, pretty gnarly. I feel like there was a lot of talk about 30 Surfaces earlier. That got me all worried.

Jake

It is nasty. It is not good.

Pat

Yeah, it's pretty...

Connor

I'll be sneak out of this place.

Jake

We can't be messing up the brothers fine.

Connor

I'll just meet up with her in the morning.

Pat

I'd go to room four and pick the dopest bed.

Jake

Connor, roll me snake.

Donnie

I go to room four and I unroll my bedroll.

Pat

Were there hammock hooks?

Donnie

Yeah, I'll go to room four and grab whatever bed's left, I guess.

Jake

There is a balcony with a hammer hook in it.

Pat

I just pull out my hammock from my handy haversack and hook it up.

Pat

my blanket.

Jake

Sean, she rolled a one, dude. You're out of there.

Rich

Though I don't sleep, I also hook my hammock up so I can have a comfy spot to sit.

Pat

Tight. Hang out with the Android in the hammocks. Are you heavy?

Rich

I don't think so. Maybe.

Jake

I just imagine Richard there just swinging with you all perpendicular and being like,

Pat table talk

You're an android.

Rich

Mm-hmm.

Jake table talk

Purpose?

Rich table talk

Ha.

Jake table talk

Yeah, purpose. We all were doing it, bud.

Rich table talk

Yeah!

Jake table talk

Perfect.

Jess

Me and my Enfield curl up somewhere. Wherever we are.

Jake

to tail and a nice little fucking yin yang cuddle

Jess

Yeah, exactly. A little cuddle puddle.

Donnie table talk

Who doesn't love a cuddle puddle?

Pat

Sounds good. I'm going to cast a spell that makes it so I don't have to sleep tonight.

Pat

out with the Android.

Donnie

You gonna want your spells back after you already cast like four or five spells today.

Pat

You don't have to. I still get those back. I just don't have to sleep.

Pat

It's called Keep Watch.

Rich table talk

Nice.

Pat

Yeah, it's a good spell.

Rich table talk

working

Rich

So what all is everybody playing, by the way?

Donnie

I'm playing a gripply gunslinger.

Pat

Chiefling Wizard.

Connor

I'm going to explain an order for

Rich

I don't even know what a Gripley is.

Donnie

I'm a little two foot tall frog person.

Rich

Oh, nice.

Rich

So we got gunslinger, oracle, one witch or two?

Donnie

Two, I'm a witch also.

Rich

And Pat and I are wizards. What are you, Ozone?

Pat

Oh, you're a wizard? I need to study your damn spell book.

Ozan

I'm a...

Rich

I actually don't have a spell book.

Ozan

A wizard without a spell book?

Rich

Yeah, go to great lengths to not have a spell book.

Ozan

You just have a library card?

Rich

I do like to borrow people's books and read out of them. I can still learn other people's spells.

Ozan

I'm a paladin bard. Mostly bard, but a little paladin.

Rich

And Nutty's a fighter?

Nutty

Yep, fighter Archer.

Ozan

What type of creature are you? Erase.

Nutty

I'm a Strix.

Ozan table talk

Dricks.

Nutty table talk

Birdman.

Ozan

What's your race, Rich?

Rich

Android.

Ozan table talk

Android wizard? That's wild.

Donnie table talk

Always.

Rich

It is my backstory is that I woke up at the base of a very snowy castle and a pile of bodies. Like, clearly, my party had been brutally murdered. And I just kind of got up and left.

Rich

It was not a pleasant place to start life, so I got the fuck out of there.

Ozan table talk

wait under a pile of bodies in a castle you said

Rich table talk

outside a snowy castle.

Jess table talk

Wait

Rich table talk

The way androids work is after they've been dead for a minute or they age to like 100, the soul inside them just kind of leaves and another random soul sets up shop in it. And just like starts out fresh.

Ozan table talk

All right, let me preach to you about the good Lord. Because...

Rich table talk

I've already found faith, my good friend. Don't you worry.

Ozan table talk

Lord's souls don't go around like that.

Pat table talk

Reach.

Rich table talk

laughter Have you learned about Marzoc, God of Death?

Ozan table talk

There's only one true God, my friend. as you'll eventually find.

Rich table talk

But there's like a bunch of gods.

Ozan table talk

There is certainly a lot of gods, but only one true god.

Rich table talk

Godfight!

Rich table talk

Rumble style? Is there a way to decide the true god?

Ozan table talk

I think that soul story is just something that someone programmed into you just so you don't question about your soul.

Rich table talk

possible. We may never know.

Ozan table talk

Do you know who made you?

Rich table talk

now.

Ozan table talk

wondered

Rich table talk

No, I'm only two. I'm still working through a lot of basic questions right now.

Donnie table talk

Well the board is really good at answering basic questions.

Ozan table talk

You have to go, do you ever have to go potty?

Jake table talk

so I'm going to take it off.

Rich table talk

They don't.

Ozan table talk

No oil changes?

Rich table talk

No, it's amazing.

Ozan table talk

That's nice. But you don't need to sleep, do you? Do you need sleep? Like hibernate? I don't know.

Rich table talk

No, you know, it's fun to chill out and nap, I guess, or not really nap, more just like,

Ozan table talk

Are you a magical construct or mechanical?

Ozan

Where do you get your power from?

Rich

I'm going to have to say some type of magic, I think. I'm going to have to look into that. I'm going to have to look into that.

Ozan

That's nice. Yeah, I bet that's pretty common. Yeah.

Rich

Don't have that one down yet.

Donnie table talk

Yeah.

Jess table talk

Ashlene.

Rich table talk

Ashley.

Jess

What kind of witch are you?

Donnie

What's it called? A Buddha?

Jess table talk

Oh, rad.

Jess

And what's your... Grace, what type of person are you?

Donnie

T-Fly.

Jess table talk

Hell yeah. Hell yeah.

Donnie

She's like on the taller side too, a 6'1".

Donnie

So she towers over some of you.

Donnie

Especially the little frog dude.

Jess table talk

I'm going...

Rich

What's the Buddha class actually do?

Donnie

turn into a hyena.

Donnie

And no familiar.

Jake

I know.

Donnie

Yeah, I have a totem instead of a familiar.

Rich

into like a shaman subclass.

Rich table talk

Fuck yeah.

Donnie table talk

I totally love the idea of turning into a hyena, so...

Rich table talk

I think we have a very fun series of support classes and then Nutty to kill everything.

Donnie table talk

And me. Don't forget me.

Rich table talk

You gotta go this later. You're right.

Rich

know if I can, like, enchant bullets or shit like that. I don't know if I can boost you.

Donnie table talk

You're busy.

Rich

You can give him like a stat boost. Let me see what I can do. I did just find out that haste always applies to more than one target.

Rich

Yeah, it's one per, like, character level, or... one per two character levels, so you can pretty much always start out casting it on three people minimum.

Pat

Whoa, targets one creature a level? That's insane.

Rich

Yeah, fucking right.

Pat

I had no idea.

Rich

I have never done it right. That would have just been so helpful in so many situations. Yeah, everybody.

Pat

You can haste your whole party.

Pat

It's already good if it's one person.

Jake table talk

Yeah, no shit.

Pat table talk

I need that spell.

Jake

What's your AC?

Pat

awful. 12 or 14.

Rich

So I don't have a spell...

Jake

A rock whizzes by you thrown from a building on the other side of the street. And it just

Pat

Oh, it's actually 18 because I casted Mage Armor unless we were in... That was 8 hours. I mean, it's been 8 hours since Copperfield was talking to us, and it's off. Okay, so 18.

Jake

Has not.

Jake

Yeah, Rock whizzes by you and Rich and hits the back of the wall. It's fucking just on the other side of the street, there's a family of goblins. One of them has a shower cap on, but they all look like the exact same fucking goblins. Just ugly and shit, and they're just screaming at you, telling you

Pat

Tell us to what?

Rich

Tell us to what, Jake? Tell us to what?

Jess table talk

He's dead, Jim.

Pat

I'm going to go kill those fucking goblins.

Jess

Am I in the same room as y'all?

Pat

Yeah, I think we're all in room four. We're just on the balcony.

Jess

Are you? Hello, sir.

Jess

I don't know. She mentioned snuggling with me or something like that, and I wasn't sure if I got left behind with a possible doppelganger. Scurred. Scurred.

Pat

That's true. Erdy Gertie could have been a doppelganger.

Jess

We don't know. I mean, I don't think she is. But can you ever really know?

Nutty

Well, I mean, I guess we should just kill her. No witnesses.

Pat

No witnesses.

Nutty

Can't be linked to the VatBank heists.

Pat

and that he knows.

Jess table talk

I was not here for any interactions with doppelgangers in past campaigns. Anything I should know?

Rich table talk

Poison that paralyzes you and turns you invisible so that you're easy to hide. That's terrifying.

Donnie table talk

Hey.

Pat table talk

Oh yeah, that was brutal.

Rich table talk

laughter

Nutty table talk

Yeah, it's actually pretty fucked up.

Rich

So, you know, watch out. Don't go anywhere alone. I'm

Pat table talk

I got paralyzed and turned invisible.

Rich

Ha. Let's not go do dishes.

Pat

Dude, fuck those guys.

Rich table talk

We ended up thinking that's why we left. You know, this is fucking really dangerous.

Donnie

Can we burn this town down or is that the next town?

Pat

I burnt a lot of tons down.

Rich

hounds that got burned down but there were also a bunch that got taken over so who knows plus there's been time to rebuild in theory

Donnie

No, I think we walked away and let the doppelgangers have this town. We burned down the next one.

Connor table talk

Hey, do you guys actually see a town or do you guys just have a black screen?

Donnie table talk

Oh, we just have black men.

Pat table talk

I have a black screen.

Donnie table talk

We're speaking from memory of the past campaign here.

Jake table talk

I mean...

Pat table talk

Hey, Jakey. You back?

Jake table talk

Yeah. Can you hear me?

Pat

I can hear you now. I conjure a wooden stick and throw it at these fucking goblins.

Pat table talk

Wood mage, bitch.

Jake

Target takes two points of bleed damage each round. Holy shit. Okay, here we go.

Pat

It can't, it can't, it can't crit. I don't know why I did that. Oh no, it's just, wait.

Jake table talk

I was like, I know why you did that.

Pat

Let's see what's going on here.

Pat

13 damage.

Donnie

And two bleed damage?

Pat

Yeah, starting next round.

Donnie

Is that a hundred foot range?

Pat table talk

Wood mage, bitch.

Connor

You just, She just threw a fucking spear at this guy.

Pat

No, it's a stick. He threw a rock, I threw a stick.

Nutty table talk

It's a stick.

Jake

that breaks into countless splinters

Pat table talk

Yeah.

Nutty

It says right there, wood stick, Connor.

Pat

Wood stick. Not...

Donnie

I mean, if you sharpen a wood stick, it becomes a spear.

Connor table talk

Exactly.

Connor

You guys are still up in room four, right?

Connor

Yeah, I had backup there.

Nutty

Guys should have sent it to the man drinking off.

Pat

and then go back to bed.

Jake table talk

Ha.

Nutty

It's room three. We're all in room three.

Jake

Pat, you fucked up four fucking... You fucked up... What was it?

Pat

It's only... It's on AOE.

Jake

Okay, it's not.

Pat

It just splinters into the guy it hit to make it bleed damage. and it doesn't crit it's 13 damage i have to change the ability for it to crit

Pat

13 damage, yeah.

Donnie

Not to mention two bleed damage.

Pat

which will happen in a round.

Pat

and then they go back to bed.

Rich table talk

Yeah, and about that shit.

Jake

You fucked that goblin up.

Pat

Alright, good. You shouldn't fucking throw a box in people's sleep.

Nutty

Don't bring a rock to a thick fight.

Jake

pretty fucked out.

Pat

You'll be a rock with a stick, mate. There's fucking wood maggots over here.

Pat

Is that spirit that guy?

Jake

Goblin's wife threw another rock at you and then she's taking her husband and the kids back inside from the balcony as he's rivaling in pain

Pat

I throw a fucking wood stick at her.

Jake

from No.

Pat

seven fucking damaged turns.

Pat

conjure another one up from thin air wood magic I can do this three plus six times a day, man.

Ozan table talk

I'm sorry.

Jake

I was going to say she went inside and shut the door, but the doors are paper and it goes right through the doors. You see the silhouette? Tags are in the back.

Pat

Good.

Jake

She's bleeding. You just hear nothing but gobbling screams. And lights and candles go on in the place.

Pat

Back to bed.

Connor

I'd crash out as well.

Jake

Connor, you...

Jake

Let's just say you're at the bottom of the stairs.

Pat

We might need some memory magic.

Jake

you see four guards enter into the building. And they look around immediately. They're just like checking the places. They're like walking forward. You see him talk to the bar, the bartender. Could you give me a, it's not listen. It's perception, right? Give me a perception.

Connor

I'm going to double click.

Ozan

I see guards coming, you say?

Ozan

Oh, well, I was waiting for an additional audience.

Jake

Are you still in the dish pit?

Ozan

Yeah, bitch, I'm still talking to him.

Jake

Yeah, you see the guards too.

Ozan

Yeah, can I perform to try to pull them into my...

Jake

Yeah, roll perception.

Ozan

Perception. All right.

Ozan

Jake

Jesus Christ.

Ozan

Bard.

Jake

That's insane. Bards. Yeah, you see four of them come in and talk to the bartender. They're like, they push a...

Ozan

I try to get their attention and I try to pull them into the preaching. I notice that they're looking for... Do I notice that they're looking for something? Like they're coming in looking for something?

Jake

Yeah, they're upstanding. They're in their fucking what's up gear.

Ozan

Yeah, I try to distract them. I try to pull them in. I'm like, hey, guys, perfect timing. I was just telling my friend about the wonderful thing that God offers.

Jake

Like, well, our God is good. How are you doing, citizen?

Rich

She's like,

Jake

What'd you get? He points you in the face and then he looks over at the bartender and he's like, when did you get new hires?

Jake

The bartender's like, yeah, today, you know, business comes and goes. When it's steady, it's steady.

Jake

And the guard immediately tells him, he's like, we're looking for a woman. Big fro, gray. Answers by Mary. She live here.

Jake

And the bartender says...

Pat

I'm going to interrupt them.

Jake

He says, I've never seen you before in my life.

Jake

The guard's like, well, I know your line. And he immediately grabs him. Puts two other guards on him.

Ozan

I have their attention, right?

Jake

Mm-hmm.

Ozan

We'll save.

Ozan

10 plus 3 plus 6, 19.

Jake

What was that wall save again?

Ozan

Jake

19? Fucking hell yeah, dude.

Pat

Jake

One, two, three.

Jake

Yeah. What's up?

Ozan

All right, so the game is basically

Jake

They all failed.

Ozan

taking their attention and like just like blowing their minds about the wonderful thing that god offers to them

Ozan

And I kind of make sure that the, who's the owner guy that was like lying about Mary? What's this? I basically like make sure that he has time to kind of just like walk away.

Jake

Tusk eyes you at the back and just slowly... walks back and he's trying to go up the stairs.

Ozan

So I hold their attention basically and I, you know, preach the good word.

Jake

crazy yeah they're just they're just in there they're all they're yeah exactly they're all talking to myself they're like wait hold on so he was a martyr

Nutty

I go up there and I start... I start splitting throats!

Ozan

Yeah, man. And he was basically one of us. He's the best dude ever. You should just convert. Come on.

Jake

He was terrorists. One of us.

Jake

He's like, yeah, I mean, like, what do I sign? He's like, what's his name again? He doesn't...

Ozan

Just give me your name and I'll put you as the converted.

Ozan

I'll add you to the registry. All right, Greg, you're in the registry for the church now.

Jake

This is Mitch, this is Mike, and this is Mike. And he's like, and Mike's fucking crazy.

Ozan

All right, guys. I mean, we're going to get to the tithing and shit later, but let's just, you know, let's go back to Jesus, basically. And we continue talking so that the owner dude can go warn Mary or whatever.

Jake

Right. Yeah, you see him right up the stairs. anybody who's awake can hear. If it's up to him going into the fucking going up and then immediately to the room.

Jake

saying a secret passcode. knocking answering and you hear whispers.

Pat

Ooh, do I hear a secret passcode while I'm up here? Me and the Android?

Jake

Yes, you do. Yes. Go ahead and roll your reception.

Pat

I probably won't be able to hear it, but we'll try it.

Pat

Five.

Pat

Do I hear it? What's the password?

Jake

You hear the words operation.

Pat

I

Donnie

I'm sleeping.

Jake

She starts not gonna marry, she's like, oh shit, oh shit. And she's, you hear the wrestling and gathering her things.

Jake

Window open. Slide down the back window.

Jake

You're there in the room with the guards.

Jake

You doing anything?

Connor

It seems like Ozan has them pretty locked up, so I'm going to go back upstairs. You said the bartender and Mary were still upstairs?

Jake

Yeah.

Connor

All right, I'm going to cast false alibi on bartender and make him forget the last five minutes.

Jake

All right.

Jake

Is it willing? No one's willing to lose their memory.

Pat

DC 19

Jake

completely.

Pat

What do you replace his memory with?

Jake

Now he...

Jake

Yeah, is he just a blank slate?

Connor

you got it through i thought you said i thought you said my spell failed i so i have to pick a triggering condition so i'm gonna make that triggering condition whenever i drop a coin on the ground but i'm gonna let him

Jake

Yeah, I got it through completely. No.

Jake

Connor, do you have any emeralds with you?

Connor

Do not know. I thought I just had to have the money for it.

Jake

then you can outcast it.

Jake

No.

Connor

Oh, damn. I didn't know we had to have regents on us.

Nutty table talk

This is like his first time playing D&D.

Ozan

Isn't it just assumed that you always get it?

Jake

That's true.

Ozan

I mean, he probably had it in his pack. Come on, man. It's not his first time.

Jake table talk

All right. All right. I won't stifle. I won't stifle.

Pat

What's the question you're asking if he has

Donnie

And I'm rolling.

Jake

thematic components, emeralds dustworth,

Ozan table talk

Fuck them over.

Jake

I'm not fucking him over, but just let it be known. Read your spells, man.

Pat table talk

Nice, man. Thank you.

Ozan

Oh, it's a special type of thing.

Pat table talk

Fuck them over.

Connor

Is there like a specific store I have to go to buy these things?

Ozan

The wizard store.

Jake

You're like a jeweler. A lot of major shops have them. It's common. It's not uncommon. It's not our gold pieces.

Connor

All right, but if it gets through, I wiped his memory from the last five minutes, and it triggers when I drop a coin on the ground.

Jake

Yes, you do. And that is perfect. And I think that

Connor

And I make him forget that he ever told Mary anything. I forget there's guards downstairs.

Connor

Then I drop my phone on the ground.

Pat

Slips a little something else in there too. Like He remembers that he likes to wear women's clothing sometimes.

Connor

He also forgets that he's getting very hot.

Jake

And he's like, oh, fuck shit. Oh.

Jake

I forgot I was wearing these panties.

Pat

Exactly. Oh my God, where did my panties go? I'm not wearing them anymore.

Jake

These diapers already got shit in them. What?

Pat

Pick it up. And I pack my hammock up, cast a spell, and go downstairs to join the action.

Jake

What's your spell?

Pat

Keep watch.

Pat

Yeah, pretty much. I suffer no fatigue and gain all the usual benefits of a full night's rest tonight.

Jake

Well, now a Tusk has no memory of talking to Mary or telling where she went or anything like that. All he knows is that

Jake

He hasn't seen the ferret. Jess has been hidden. So he's not pissed about that.

Jake

Ozone's been talking to him for a minute, so all he does is remember is about the good word and Ozone. But he didn't tell, he told Mary where to go. And then he, he's none the wiser.

Jake

He looks at you, Connor. He's like, where's Mary? We're in Mary's room. You see an old lady?

Donnie

He didn't push the thang.

Donnie

I heard you talk from your room but I can't hear you talking. laughter

Pat

I go down to the bartender.

Pat

I say I can't sleep, but I offer to give him a tattoo.

Jake

Because like,

Jake

I'm really not much tattoo type. Got any drawings?

Pat

Yeah, let's show him some of my tattoos. I've got this... wood nature tattoos kind of on my head and on my wrists.

Jake

He's like, oh, I'm not really a big nature guy. You got anything fucking skulls? Pantera?

Pat

Yeah, I use my skill on the table here on a napkin and just see what it looks like.

Jake

hit that perform.

Pat

Yeah, that's a little fucked. Roll at 19.

Jake

What is it?

Pat

29

Jake

No, what's the tattoo?

Pat

Oh, it's skulls. They're vomiting skulls while a snake is wrapping around them. And then all of that is in a cauldron. Yeah.

Jake

He's like, damn, look at this shade and all that motherfucker. He's like, can you do this only with the color blue? Sick.

Pat

You want one?

Jake

Light me up, fuck yeah!

Pat

Sweet. You got 20 gold?

Jake

What?

Pat table talk

I'm just fucking wishing. Let's go.

Pat

I give him a tat.

Jake

He looks at Ozan. And he's like... You ready for that promotion?

Jake

And he throws his towel over your shoulder. And he grabs your shoulder and he's like, it's your bar now until I get back.

Ozan

I'll make you proud, boss.

Ozan

Can you give me the keys?

Pat table talk

Is that thing where he like throws the keys across the bar goes like catch

Jess table talk

Like wholesome.

Jake

He...

Jake

No, he... Roll me... Persuasion.

Ozan

What, diplomacy? Or...

Jake

Yes, diplomacy. I'm sorry.

Jake

Yeah, he pulls out his keys. And he shows them to you with his hand? Hey. He does this weird thing where he tucks the keys in the palm of his hand and then he taps the vein of the inside of his elbow and pops the keys to you. Jesus Christ, dude. What is it with this diplomacy shit? How is anybody supposed to get anything done? Nobody can roll that high.

Ozan

I'm telling you, you're going to have a hard time.

Jake

I know.

Pat

I mean, he can be very diplomatic, but it's not going to, it doesn't change the way that the guy feels like extremely diplomatic.

Ozan

It's because I have 23 charisma.

Pat

Yeah.

Ozan table talk

You remember that god roll that I did earlier with the stats? That's why.

Jake

No, you're all level sixes. Sounds about right. I mean, you want to walk into town and fucking get your dicks, so go right on ahead. You guys are asking for like bar keys and shit instead of like money. I'm down with that.

Ozan table talk

We're trying to start a business here.

Jake table talk

You guys are selling yourselves short, dude. You would fucking mad jump there on the second floor, you know? No, I feel it.

Ozan table talk

highway to farming

Pat

I do some scat poetry while I'm tattooing them.

Jake

fucking rock just comes through your room again just fucking whiz-banging you from the second floor

Pat

Oh, motherfucker. Do I see who fucking threw it?

Jake

Yeah, it's that fucking... It's the goblin, but he's got a fucking patch over his eye.

Pat

I can conjure another goddamn piece of wood and throw it back at him.

Jake

Jesus Christ, he's down.

Pat table talk

laughter

Pat

I can do this.

Jake

He falls off the balcony, fucking Wild West style. He fucking, partner, and he fucking goes over the ledge.

Donnie

Poor guy.

Jake

I see this female goblin screaming.

Pat

I tattooed this motherfucker. 26.

Jake

On...

Donnie

Where are you? Are you tattooing him downstairs? Are the guards still down there?

Pat

Wherever he wants to get angry.

Pat

I think we went back to my balcony.

Donnie

Okay, there's like four guards downstairs, right?

Jake

Yeah, exactly. And they saw the goblin's body. And they look up.

Pat

Do they see me?

Jake

Natural 20.

Pat

I waved.

Jake

They wave back and they head back inside and they're headed up the stairs.

Pat

Okay, is the guy with me in here? Am I by myself?

Rich

I clean up my hammock now.

Jake

Rich is packing up.

Pat

Oh, shit.

Rich

I don't know.

Pat

I should have used my fucking memory lapse. God damn it, it's too late.

Rich table talk

I'm sorry.

Jake

You hear the shuffle of armor headed up the stairs.

Rich

I'm going to go ahead and both cast Major and then Invisibility.

Pat

Yeah, I also cast Invisibility. Fuck that.

Jake

Bang on the door.

Rich

hide under the bed.

Jake

He's like, open up. Open up. Bang. I just saw him in here. Open up.

Jess table talk

I'll see you next time.

Donnie

I wake up. I wake up and to the sound of knocking and open the door.

Connor

I'm going to...

Jake table talk

Oh shit, Donnie, sorry, what was that? Hold on, you're a little quiet on my end, what was that?

Donnie

I said I wake up to the sound of the knocking and open the door.

Jake table talk

You just quit to the point.

Jake

Oh, Jesus Christ.

Jake

Yeah, there's four guards sitting there. There's four guards standing at you. Both the mats at the same time. They're like, get away from the door. And they push you back.

Jake

Well, they're pushing the door right now trying to get in. Do you stop them?

Donnie

30 pounds, dude.

Jake

Oh, you just get fucking, okay.

Donnie table talk

LAUGHTER

Rich table talk

Ha.

Jake

So good. They come in here and they fucking look. To take a quick look,

Jake

Is he a fucking guy with the purple sash in here? He was this room right here.

Donnie

Sir, you just rudely woke me up and charged into my room. Can I help you?

Jake

Can I help you? You see this fucking bash number? That's who the fuck I am. Have you seen a kind of a purple sash?

Donnie

I don't know what you're talking about, sir.

Jake

He goes and he just fucking opens up the flap of the balcony and he just goes around looking around at him. Where are you guys in proportion to the room?

Pat

I am invisible and I am hanging off the edge of the balcony.

Rich

Yeah, we are dangling off the ledge.

Jake

I don't know.

Pat

We're dangling.

Jake

A siphon filter style. Connor, you said you're headed back up. What are you doing?

Connor

I'm almost to the door, but I'm going to try and talk him out and say that the deal with the Purple Sash just ran downstairs. He ran out the front door.

Jake

they all

Jake

Three guards immediately bolt downstairs to seven to five. And they say, thank you, citizen. And then the other one's just like slowly following back and just like checking all the nooks and crannies.

Jake

He bumps into you, being all sneaky. And they go and they address the goblin downstairs in the body and pick it up.

Jake

and literally throw it like they literally throw it like 20 steps later in a fucking on like an old broken down rickshaw cart

Donnie

When a changeling dies does it maintain the shape that it was in or does it turn back?

Pat

Oh, good question.

Jake

It maintains its original shape. It's true. So if a changeling dies, it shrivels up. Also, Mary's on the balcony hanging with you guys. She's like, what the fuck's going on? I'm scared. I wish. I wish. I wish. She's long gone. That'd be great. Yeah.

Jess table talk

Roppelganger.

Nutty table talk

laughter

Donnie

So this goblin stayed a goblin? It didn't, nothing happened to that buddy?

Rich table talk

I love it.

Jake

Yeah, she's like, anybody got a light?

Donnie

So that goblin body was still a goblin body that wasn't. Doppelganger? Okay.

Jake table talk

Right. It was you fucking Pat just made a widower, dude.

Pat

Dude, you don't throw rocks at strangers, all right? You get what you get.

Jake table talk

Who knew Pat's music would hurt somebody so much?

Nutty table talk

What kind of doppelganger is going to choose to be a goblin father?

Pat

I was doing him a favor.

Jake table talk

Nails drop.

Jake table talk

Um,

Jake table talk

All right.

Jake table talk

I mean, yeah, other than that, that's basically the night that

Jake table talk

I think I got another hour. How do you guys feel?

Pat table talk

It's midnight for you. I can keep going. I can stay.

Rich table talk

I'm down.

Ozan table talk

Did we have that encounter that you promised?

Jess table talk

Hehehe.

Nutty table talk

It was the goblin.

Jake table talk

No.

Rich table talk

Yeah.

Jake table talk

You want to rush to it?

Jake table talk

What's that one? Connor went back inside. So it doesn't make any sense.

Jake table talk

Connor was supposed to go to a Blade fucking...

Jake

You guys, the map she gave you leads you right

Jake

to the bank on that side.

Jake

How do I move the tokens?

Pat

I don't know. We just see blackness.

Connor

Apparently right now, Ozone's in charge of the bar, right?

Jake

Right. Yeah, I was on Sowson Bar.

Ozan

I got a gun lock. What, you want something? You got the gold, I got the drink.

Connor

Yeah, I'm going to sit down at the bar and have another beer.

Ozan

the homey discount.

Connor

I mean, this could be the perfect place to start a cult. Don't you think I was on? I mean, you're able to just jam out.

Jake table talk

Ha

Ozan

You say that about everybody, yeah.

Connor

We could be one of those mega churches, you know, that's just based around music. You know, you play the jams.

Ozan

But you know, it's just hustle mentality.

Connor

Pat wants to memory and I'm playing false memories.

Ozan

Yeah, I mean, I jammed some people into God pretty hardly.

Donnie table talk

Dude, I seriously want to start a cult for real.

Pat table talk

Of course you do. Everybody does.

Rich table talk

Ha.

Jake table talk

Colt Leader gets all the pussy. There's a dick on the screen. Perfect. You guys see it.

Pat table talk

Yeah, I finally get to draw those. I'm on this side now.

Jake table talk

laughter

Pat table talk

What about all that hard work? Nice. Here's a dick.

Pat table talk

impersonating me.

Pat table talk

I think.

Ozan table talk

What's happening right now?

Jake table talk

I'm trying to pull you guys into a half-made map.

Pat table talk

I can move my dick across here.

Jake table talk

Yo, Mario, we're about you.

Jake table talk

Rich, are you Ron James?

Rich table talk

I am indeed.

Jake table talk

Fuck yeah.

Rich table talk

Well, hell yeah.

Rich table talk

Oh, shit.

Pat table talk

Mm-hmm.

Jake

Can you guys see? Oh, no, you guys don't have... I gotta do that light thing. I have to do everything to your token, so...

Nutty

Oh, we can see everything right now.

Jake

Really?

Rich

Except for the parts covered by cards. Yeah.

Donnie table talk

You're welcome.

Donnie

How do you shrink the player icons again? I know I did that before.

Jake

How do you transfer people to maps?

Pat

You drag the active map in the top down thing for the active players, and you just drag it to the map you want them to be on.

Pat

changes their focus.

Pat table talk

I know.

Pat

Darkness imprisoning me.

Jake table talk

Don't betcha.

Pat

And now for us to have any sort of vision, we need a token that's assigned to us so we can control that has vision enabled.

Donnie

There we go.

Pat

Video display player avatar size.

Pat

Yeah, I just was looking for that too. There's a ton of big fucking avatars.

Donnie

In audio and video, go over to video display.

Pat

Yeah, just names.

Pat table talk

Nuttys was like stuck in the middle.

Nutty table talk

Wait, you can see mine? What's it look like?

Pat table talk

Just as nutty.

Nutty table talk

It just says Nerdy.

Pat table talk

I mean, you got a Marvel character on there.

Nutty table talk

He's got wings.

Pat table talk

No, I can't see your token. It's just your audio video thing.

Nutty table talk

bottom.

Connor table talk

That's vision, right? That's vision, right?

Nutty table talk

That's fucking Mysterio, man.

Pat table talk

Yeah.

Connor table talk

out.

Nutty table talk

He has a fishbowl on his head.

Pat table talk

I said Marvel character.

Nutty table talk

Yeah, you're right. Pat's closer. He's a little generic, though. Connor went for the...

Pat table talk

Look, man, I don't know anything about that shit.

Nutty table talk

The Spider-Man villain.

Jake table talk

You guys might be able to see now.

Pat table talk

Mm-mm.

Connor table talk

So I'm black.

Jake table talk

All right, nice.

Rich table talk

Vision.

Donnie table talk

Why is this card shit always on my fucking thing? Can't you disable this? Like...

Pat table talk

Yeah, I want that card thing gone too.

Pat table talk

always here.

Donnie table talk

Hello.

Jake table talk

Hello.

Pat table talk

Hello.

Jake table talk

Discord was acting up.

Jake table talk

So it's all black, right?

Donnie table talk

All black? No.

Ozan table talk

Not all black for me.

Jake table talk

What do you see, Donnie?

Jake table talk

Sky's of blue.

Donnie table talk

Yeah, there's a couple hallways, some buildings that are blacked out, I see some stairs.

Ozan table talk

Yeah, it's working for me.

Donnie table talk

Dynamic lighting is working for me.

Rich table talk

It's working for me.

Jake table talk

I try re-refreshing the page.

Nutty table talk

Still black for me.

Pat table talk

Come back.

Connor table talk

Yeah. Now I see cards on the thing, though.

Donnie table talk

Oh yeah, that's right. Cards weren't there before.

Nutty table talk

I don't see cards. Well, I see cards at the bottom right.

Donnie table talk

Yeah, Bob, right.

Connor table talk

Yeah, those cars weren't there for me last time.

Jake table talk

Mind zooming out?

Nutty table talk

I zoomed all the way out.

Connor table talk

Yeah.

Jake

Anyway, well, shoot, we'll just go blind. So you're in the city. According to the map,

Jake

It is, I want to say, about half a mile away. It's pretty lively. It's daytime right now.

Jake

after the sleep and the brutal murder of the goblin.

Jake

Hustle and bustle is pretty good. The market's pretty big. Everyone's out there just buying their shit, doing their thing.

Jake

And then

Jake

I'd say, what is it? Everybody roll an acrobatic shake.

Donnie

Acrobatics. You got it.

Jake

Everybody, Jess, you are no longer a weasel.

Jess

Hell yeah.

Pat

Pretty low check.

Donnie

Can I just click it? Mm-hmm.

Pat

Oh.

Jake

Everybody who's under, I want to say a 14...

Donnie

I don't know.

Jake

drops to their, drops to their butt.

Rich

Okay.

Jake

And the ground starts to shake.

Donnie table talk

He said some JavaScript.

Pat table talk

Oh shit, she's hacking.

Rich

Hashem.

Jake table talk

Wow, guys.

Donnie

Anybody that rolled a below what?

Jake

14.

Jake

And you could feel that just the shaking. It's like small earthquake getting bigger and bigger.

Pat

Are we still in the hotel or are we somewhere else?

Jake

On the street.

Connor

I go and find myself a doorway to hide in

Nutty

I take to the sky.

Rich

I cast fly. Join Nutty in the sky.

Donnie

I jump on Nutty.

Pat

I grab on their legs.

Ozan

This is just a tremor?

Jake

Nutty, roll me a flight check.

Connor

I'm left down here.

Nutty

the fuck

Donnie

You want a ride check for me?

Jake

I do.

Jake

Roll a handy handle filthy animal check while you're at it.

Donnie

I don't have handy filthy animals, so I don't know.

Jake

I'm just...

Jake

All right, Nettie's struggling, dude. You're making him work. You're about four feet off the ground, Donovan.

Donnie

with 30 pounds.

Nutty

How am I struggling with a small frog?

Jake

Oh, that's right. He's tiny. I keep forgetting. I thought he was, for some reason, I think he's medium-sized. No, you're up there in your tent.

Pat

I'm on there too. I grabbed onto the Colts legs.

Jake

It's just a wet stick.

Donnie

Well, I know frog legs are a delicacy in some places, but get the fuck off.

Pat

Fuck no. I'm not light either.

Connor

I run up behind him and I grab Pat's like,

Jake

Nettie, roll me for seven.

Nutty

I got 30.

Pat table talk

I'm writing progressively words.

Jake

Nnedi, you see...

Nutty

You see a lot of dead weight below you.

Jake

You're looking at a bunch of failure attached. no,

Pat

You can see clearly this isn't going to work.

Nutty table talk

laughter

Rich

You know?

Nutty table talk

laughter

Jake

You see four round piles of the ground. advancing towards you.

Jake

that are just moving it Period. Like something's almost about on the surface.

Nutty

Oh, Jesus.

Jake

whole bunch of things digging and they're, and it's moving pretty fast.

Pat

Fuck that. I cast a spell.

Nutty table talk

Ha.

Jake table talk

Oh, OK.

Jess

I should get off the ground.

Donnie

Only you were a tiny ferret.

Nutty

Yeah, let everyone know that there's some shit underground coming at us.

Jess

I can't, do you need like a broom or something to fly? Or if you have rings and fly, can you just fly?

Jake

Wonder Woman status. You just get it now.

Pat

you need anybody

Donnie

You don't... Ranks in fly won't allow you to fly. But if you have the fly hex that a witch has, you can fly.

Pat

Correct.

Pat

I started flying and Jim Jones is still attached to my legs. So I just fly with him off of the bird man and we'd go our own way.

Jake

Minus B is 60 feet, and 40 feet, of course.

Pat

How happy are you, Jim Jones?

Connor

165, I'm human, so I'm a medium.

Pat

They're about the same weight.

Donnie

I'll take him to the sky. You see him? I'm granddad.

Jess

can't fly but I would like to like go somewhere that isn't where this is

Pat

Yeah, me too, dude.

Jess

I'd like to, like, you know, maybe go a block away from the epicenter, maybe. Maybe. I'm not sure where the epicenter is, but I want to go a little

Pat

What's it look like?

Jake

You see two of them split off?

Donnie

I only got a 12.

Jake

And like kind of, kind of S towards each other. And then just split off to about like a good, like 60 feet pattern. And it's going like under and through, it's going like through buildings and shit.

Donnie table talk

Oh, you don't hold that bill for free.

Donnie table talk

X for

Donnie

Yeah.

Jake

He's just breaking up everything.

Pat

Does it look like tremors?

Nutty table talk

Gotta get to pull Volton.

Jake

Yeah, it looks like... Yeah, it's, you know, it's Little Italy in this motherfucker. Like, small buildings are, like, starting to lean.

Jake

This is about 120 feet away. It's loud. It's getting loud.

Pat

Jim Jones is on my legs dangling, but if you could climb up to piggyback, that'd be much more comfortable for us.

Connor

Yeah, I make my way up, Pat.

Jake

You better roll that ride.

Donnie

Our climb check. Yeah.

Pat

or climb.

Connor

Is it climb?

Pat table talk

I don't know, whatever. Whatever Jake wants you to roll.

Rich table talk

That's why I'm jealous.

Jake table talk

He's ripping out your chest hair, but he gets it.

Rich table talk

That's right.

Pat

Oh, Jesus Christ, man. Those aren't handles.

Jake

Give me...

Jake

You don't have to cost. You have to. Yeah. Do you have to concentrate when you fly? I don't think so.

Rich

How small, how tall are you? I'm medium.

Pat table talk

out horns you can hold a lot of them

Rich

A cast from Juice, Purse, and Jess. The last person on the ground. I cast reduced person on Jess. Pick her. Bye.

Jake

Yeah. Jess is like, what the fuck? Like,

Rich

Thanks, guys. And then I pick her up and fly. We're all under the skies. Fuck being on the ground right now.

Jake

Yeah, cool. We can all fly. Nice.

Jake

All those little, like, tremble, like, you know, like, little fucking, it's like Pez. It's like basically like a square rectangle of stuff, just bricks just peeling out and just popping all the ground that makes it. And it's headed all the way east.

Connor table talk

Just bedazzled.

Jake

basically towards the bay.

Nutty

Towards the bank?

Jake

Uh-huh.

Pat

How many are there?

Jake

There are four.

Nutty

Gee, I think someone's trying to take our job.

Jake

And it seems, it doesn't seem like it's

Connor

That's kind of what I'm thinking too.

Jake

It doesn't seem like

Jake

works independently. It seems like it works as a duo.

Jake

Like all four don't go off in Vision and Vine.

Connor

So they have like a wingman?

Jake

Right.

Nutty

So I should we

Jake

They use the buddy system. It looks like these brown things use the buddy system.

Nutty

I say we take off to the bank.

Connor

Yeah, definitely.

Donnie

Oh, Nutty.

Pat

100%.

Jake table talk

I pass you a good fight.

Nutty table talk

I don't say that on the horse. Yeah.

Pat table talk

Gas Manager.

Jake

That's crazy. Fly, you guys are way faster. Okay, you get there with some time to spare. You guys got about maybe T-minus five minutes. You can see them hit the waves. As you just see it kick back, like it's like someone's riding a jet ski, but there's no jet ski.

Connor

So can my bridge thing go underground?

Nutty

I'm trying to fucking hit everybody with a fucking bridge.

Jake

It cannot.

Connor

No, I was going to make it into a jump.

Pat

about it, yeah. Tight.

Nutty

and do set him right over the bank.

Jake

No, it can't go through water either, technically.

Jake

Water is a solid...

Nutty

I mean, I'd say we alert the bank, but considering we're trying to rob it, it's probably going to

Jake

I guess.

Connor

Gives us perfect cover, man. We're there for a reason. We're trying to save the bank.

Pat

I mean, it's really good cover.

Connor

Why we're doing that, you know, Ozone busts out some jams, confuses them a little bit, you know, starts preaching the good word.

Jake

How close do you guys fly to the bank?

Connor

I said we land right outside.

Pat

Do I see guards?

Jake

Yes, you do. Yeah, it's basically the buildings blue, like I said, once again, sharp, very sharp peaks. It's a one story. with a, you know, all that you can only see on top.

Nutty

Post up on top of the bank.

Jake

There are no guards on the top of the bank, but there are

Jake

Not a lot. There seems to be a bunch of people for probably every 40 people just walking around, just hitting market or just being around. There seems like one cop. So basically one on each, one officer on patrol for each corner of the building.

Nutty

If a guard...

Pat

Do they notice all the ruckus coming yet?

Jake

They have zero fucking idea.

Nutty

If one of them looks at me, I give him the heads up.

Pat

You know, Jim Jones, should we just land on the roof?

Jake

I'm 90 since you said I'm a roll.

Connor

Yeah, kind of though. Let's see how that plays out down there.

Pat table talk

Wait, you said yes or no?

Connor

Yeah, I said, yeah, we should see how that plays out down there.

Pat

Down there. Okay, so we're going to land on the roof.

Donnie

What are we doing, Nutty?

Nutty

We can't shoot anything on the ground, so we've got to wait for it to come up.

Donnie

Yeah, 20 foot range, so...

Nutty

Oh, well, I'll throw you at him.

Jake table talk

Sick.

Nutty

How high are we up?

Donnie

No, but you got to mitigate that.

Nutty

I realize you're so close range.

Donnie table talk

25 minutes.

Rich

I'm going to use my hat of disguise to cover my face with a robe and a mask.

Donnie

I should buy a rifle, but I spent all my money on my revolvers, so...

Rich

Because, you know...

Nutty

Well, depending on what it is, maybe we can just hover 20 feet above it and start letting loose.

Jake

As you guys are sitting there, the...

Jake

The rumbling from the ocean kind of subsides and splits. And then buddy system goes off to the left.

Jake

Main one.

Jake

It looks like you don't see the water up top. Like you don't see it move anymore. It just kind of like just dissipates like shh. Like it's like a hippo stopping underwater or some shit. And then you see... two monsters pop out would they breach? Like you see nothing and then you see a breach and they go about 20 feet up in the air. And they have harnesses on. Roll me perception.

Rich

Eh...

Rich

Will do, good sir.

Jake

So they have harnesses on Roll Me. Also guys, knowledge nature

Donnie

No, not perform.

Pat

Ooh, national one. What do I know about him?

Rich table talk

Hell yeah.

Jake

These are seahorses, Pat.

Pat table talk

tight.

Rich

Are they giant seahorses?

Pat

What do they love?

Rich

20 feet in the air.

Pat

Or what's their weakness?

Jake

They love, dude, their love and their weakness. Same thing, bro. Beatbox Harmonica.

Pat table talk

Okay, I'm about it. I'm about it.

Jake table talk

No.

Pat

I know exactly what I'm doing.

Jake

You see. With those... Yeah, with those rules, any...

Jake table talk

Danny Chesson

Connor table talk

Sorry, I dropped. What happened?

Jess

Yeah, what do I see with my non-GAT 20? I have a nat 20. Hold on. Hold on.

Jake

You're not at 20? I got you.

Connor table talk

Yeah, what happened? I dropped

Jess

Yeah. Perception is a nat 20. The knowledge nature is a non nat 20.

Jake table talk

You see a creature that looks in the Discord like that?

Pat table talk

Connor,

Jake

You see two of them linked together. And with those perception rolls, like they have harnesses that are just, that are just like, just shiny chains. And in the middle of them, you see it like a, it looks, it looks like a hard metal in a diamond.

Jake

It looks like two of them are like carried. Into the bay.

Donnie

Taking a diamond into the bank?

Jake

It looks like, yeah, no, it's made of steel, but it's the shape of a diamond.

Rich table talk

Where did you...

Jess table talk

Share it in the Discord.

Pat

I use knowledge engineering to see if that metal thing looks like it could be a power generation device.

Jake

GSU engineering? Yeah. Do you know that it doesn't look mechanical of any kind?

Jess

No idea.

Pat

The thing they're bringing in doesn't look like a dynamo.

Jake

You can...

Donnie

They're just average customers going to the bank.

Jake

You can see

Connor

And there's about to be hell coming through, right?

Jess

large customers fly to the bank.

Jake

So as this thing breaches and that's just basically what you see and it's in mid-flight, they're making some dumb noises like, you know, because they're just, they breathe there.

Jess table talk

You said you shared like a something in the discord. I'm not seeing it.

Jake table talk

How can you not see that?

Donnie table talk

I don't see nothing.

Rich

What do my elves know?

Jess

What do my elven eyes see?

Connor

type it in chat and roll 20.

Jake table talk

The image just does it so much to us.

Rich table talk

Maybe try the Facebook. Thread.

Jake table talk

Yeah.

Jake table talk

So that work?

Nutty table talk

Bullets. I knew it.

Donnie table talk

I don't know what that is.

Connor table talk

No, I don't see anything.

Nutty table talk

Whatever the fucking ground shakes, it's always a fucking bullet on the trowel.

Nutty table talk

You have to click General on the Discord server to see it.

Connor table talk

Yes, you know.

Jess table talk

basically truckers.

Pat table talk

Oh, fucking bullets. Looks like seahorses to me.

Jake table talk

Those...

Nutty table talk

I'm gonna say a seahorse. What the fuck? It's an ugly ass seahorse.

Jess table talk

Fucking love Tremors as a kid.

Rich table talk

going to love time to

Pat

It was probably nothing.

Jake

Doesn't know shit about bullets, but knows a good thing about engineering. Damn thing or two.

Pat

I don't know shit about bullets.

Jake

And those things carrying that diamond immediately like smash into the almost, I want to say, 60 feet from the back entrance of the bank.

Jake

those guys do not bullets don't shovel dirt out when they dig they just displace

Nutty

Why don't we bring any bullets?

Donnie

Well, I brought bullets, Nitty.

Rich

What do they just say for?

Connor

so they're obviously trying to like you know get that stuff in the bank pretty securely right

Donnie

I mean, they could just be passing by, right?

Nutty

And there's riders on the bullets, he said, right?

Nutty

Did he say that?

Donnie

I didn't hear that, but...

Pat

It's subtle.

Rich

He said they had harnesses.

Nutty

I heard harness. I just kind of similar someone on them.

Rich

the implication.

Pat

Just got the highest handle animal.

Rich

harnesses do imply things.

Nutty

That would be charisma.

Pat

I think their Ozone or Jim Jones here should wrangle themselves a new mount.

Rich

Catch yourself a steer.

Connor

With their writers already on there?

Pat

I think they just have harnesses on.

Connor

All right, well, I'm going to hop

Pat

I could fly you down there, Jim.

Connor

yeah i was gonna say it's gonna be pretty high up here right we're on top of a bank find me on down

Pat

So you want to do that?

Rich

There he is.

Connor

I mean, if there's no writers, why not?

Pat

other writers, Jake?

Donnie table talk

We lost him.

Jake table talk

No, I'm back. I'm back. Can you hear me?

Rich table talk

That's...

Nutty table talk

No. Oh, yeah.

Pat table talk

Now I can.

Rich table talk

with that break now.

Connor

So do the bullets have riders?

Jake

No, they do not. Not from what you saw.

Pat

I fled Jim down.

Jake

have writers but they are sure as shit going into that bank

Pat

I start flying Jim down.

Connor

And as soon as I get down to the ground, I'm going to try and hop on one of their harnesses.

Rich

While they're doing that, I cast Shield on myself.

Ozan

The bullets are on their way to the bank, right? Is that it?

Jake

They're like in it.

Jess

I'm gonna cast mage armor on myself.

Pat

I'm going to cast a whole shitload of spells unless you interrupt me and tell me it's on my turn.

Ozan table talk

Where on the map is the bank? Can someone ping it?

Connor table talk

But do you still see the map?

Pat table talk

I can't see the map.

Donnie table talk

We're not really playing with the map since most people don't have access to it.

Pat table talk

I'm going to see blackness.

Ozan table talk

I've always saw the map. All right. All right. That's fine. Even better.

Donnie table talk

I think it's just you and me who are going to have access to the map.

Connor

So I'm assuming I'm going to fail that handle animal, right?

Nutty

I mean, you can't go on or thinking like that.

Connor

I already rolled it. I rolled an eight.

Nutty

The animal will sense your hesitation. Oh yeah, you failed it.

Pat

He's going to die.

Donnie

So do we have a way of stopping them? Looking at all my magic users

Rich

We're all going to be starting some shit, but it's not necessarily going to go down the way we want it to.

Nutty

Well, I mean, the good news is they can't get anyone in the air. Unless they brought people with them.

Rich

Also, they're going to leave tunnels through a lot of things. We can probably just go in and steal shit after they tunnel through. Maybe they're trying to steal the same fucking thing.

Jess

Awesome.

Nutty

I think he said they don't leave tunnels.

Connor

I didn't mean to do that.

Rich

Oh, sure.

Nutty

I think he said they don't leave titles. I think they collapse everything behind them as they go.

Jess

I'm debating one of my hexes, Slumber, as far as, like, possibly being effective. It doesn't have, unlike regular sleep spells, an HD max.

Rich

I'm debating it.

Connor

I mean, I can just get rid of his memory.

Jess

Well, aren't there two though?

Donnie

With four.

Nutty

There's four, I think.

Jess

Four, right.

Connor

There's only two at a time, right? Did all four show up at the same time?

Donnie

There's four of them, and they're traveling in pairs, but they're all there at the same time.

Nutty

They split up. I think they came at different angles.

Jess

They do move in herds.

Jake table talk

God damn it, Jess.

Jess table talk

Yeah.

Jake table talk

God damn it, Jess.

Rich table talk

Clever girl.

Jake

Two moving nerds. Fuck that guy.

Pat

Yes, shield.

Nutty

Jake, is there any riders on these boats? They said they had harnesses.

Jake

Yeah, no, they have, they have, okay, so, you know how a horse, like, two horses to a carriage, like, how they have that, like, that binding, like, harness?

Nutty

Yeah. So they're probably going to

Jake

You see that. You see, yeah, you see them kind of like bound tightly together.

Donnie

So they're pulling something.

Nutty

I think about the haul something. Yeah, I'm going to haul the safe.

Jake

Right, yeah. They're pulling those, like, what they look like. It's a bronze color, but they're in the shape of the diamond. They're about, like...

Jake

I want to say nine, maybe nine feet wide.

Donnie

They're gonna blow this shit up.

Jake

And

Rich

with people in it.

Jake

10 feet long?

Rich

tunneling carriages, I guess. Huh.

Rich

Nifty.

Donnie

Come on Pat, you got wood magic, how about some earth magic?

Pat

I'm a wood mate.

Nutty table talk

Chuck's a stick.

Pat

But I can fuck these motherfuckers up, dude. Like, I got wood magic, Donnie. Bullets, like, wood is super effective against gigantic monsters. Don't you know?

Connor

Pretty sure I could just get a

Jake

They're not gigantic. They're huge.

Donnie

Good work.

Donnie

I got ice spears.

Connor

Do I have an action? Can I use color spray to try and stun?

Jake

Yeah, you guys are slowly, I would say, gliding down, I guess, to the bank, and you're casting, so you're casting and moving.

Jake table talk

Where is everybody?

Pat table talk

I see blackness.

Nutty

We haven't actually hit the bank yet, right?

Nutty

Are the guards doing anything?

Jake

Yeah, the guards are immediately turning into the bank.

Rich

Let's follow them in.

Jake

One of the guards points up

Jake

and says some crazy shit audibly. It's like, oh, it's fucking because I see you guys floating up there.

Rich

But there's lots of flying creatures in this universe. What about the fucking bullets going into the bank?

Nutty

Not there!

Jake

I know, I know.

Connor

Yeah, were the guards running away in fear of the bullets or were they afraid of us?

Rich table talk

I love you mother of a...

Jake

Yeah, dude, they're all terrified. Could be a simultaneous attack. It doesn't matter. Shit's coming from all ends, dude.

Nutty

They're circling the wagons.

Pat

So are we next to the bullets where we flew down? Was there only one?

Jake

You're next to the whole... I'd say.

Pat

But not the bullet.

Jake

No, the bullets went underground. After he leaped up and breached, he came down and went diagonal. hard 60 feet from the

Jess table talk

Hi, Andorca.

Donnie table talk

Ha.

Jake

Exactly.

Connor

Are all the bullets grouped up?

Jake

Yeah, after the one breach and went down to that sharp angle, you saw the other ones come by and immediately go behind. Or they're going behind it. You guys can fly faster than they can burrow.

Jake

So as you saw the one in the air, that's just like, those are the events that are transpiring in a

Connor

I mean, we should probably just go back up then, right?

Nutty

Yeah, I mean, we should wait for the bullets to kill the guards because otherwise we'd have to do that.

Nutty

And then we kill the bullets.

Rich

No, dog, let's just dive right in.

Connor

Yeah, we should definitely go back up.

Nutty

To the victor go the spoils.

Donnie

I know where Nutty goes.

Nutty

I got him hostage.

Pat

Hop on, Jim Jones.

Donnie

Means we're going back to the boat, boys.

Jake

Not a bad plan.

Jake

Not a bad plan?

Connor

Jake, you said that they're all grouped up, right?

Pat

Me and Silky...

Connor

Well, if you guys want to dive in, I think we should hop down there because me and Pat are already on the way down. Well, I'm pretty much on the way down. And

Pat

Are you jumping in?

Connor

Well, I try to jump on the animal. Doesn't that count as like I'm jumping in?

Nutty

They're underground, aren't they?

Pat

He did try to jump on the animal.

Nutty

Have an honor to grow?

Jake

Oh, I didn't hear that, Connor.

Connor

Yeah, that was a while ago.

Pat

He rolled like a 9 on that.

Nutty

Yeah, I would have not mentioned that again.

Jake

That wouldn't have.

Donnie

They displace soil, you do not.

Jake

He was trying to ride him when he was in the middle of the air, Connor.

Connor

No, you said that they have the fucking diamond in their mouth and they're going toward the bank. I thought they're already like surfacing.

Jake

No. No, not in their mouth. I'd say, yeah, I'd say then. I mean, if you didn't hear me. They breached and they immediately dug them.

Donnie

They're pulling it like a carrot.

Connor

Oh, never mind then. That's a nevermind moment.

Jake

People start pouring out. People literally just like anybody who was in that bank, any civilian is just like is out immediately. And there is a siren that's magical. It's not really like one of the ones we hear for like danger. It's just like you just hear like a low bass pulse. Okay. Boom.

Rich

You should definitely get in there before, you know, it's too late and everything's looted.

Donnie

Appreciate it.

Nutty

Yeah, I mean, yeah, it's definitely a sign that they're in there now. That's good.

Rich

Let's do this.

Jess

think I'd like to try something. I had to kind of get together what my DC and everything else was for it, but I do think I want to try to hex one of them whenever we get within 30 feet of one of these bullet guys.

Donnie

I think our best bet for affecting them is going to be on the inside.

Donnie

I

Jess

Totally. I'm down to try to put one to sleep inside as well. I just meant like, I think that's what I'm going to do.

Jess

I think I might have a thing.

Jake

You guys, do you guys go into the bank?

Connor

So the bullets went underground, right? So they probably went down to the vault.

Rich

We're going in.

Rich

one into the bank.

Connor

Just go in the bank.

Donnie

I go where Nutty goes.

Jake

Noted.

Nutty

Drop Donnie off at the front of the bank.

Donnie

Alright, I go with the bank.

Jake

I just sent him down.

Nutty table talk

laughter

Donnie

I go in. Sure, make the little guy go first.

Nutty

Are you the first ones there?

Jake

Right. I feel you, Donnie.

Donnie

Oh, the siren. It's going off.

Jake

Just a low pulse.

Connor

Follow Donnie in.

Jake

How do I take characters and put them in here?

Rich

How do I reach these keys?

Jake

I think it'd be simple to this.

Jake

I just drag and drop a character and give it vision?

Jake table talk

Do we play cards?

Donnie table talk

I mean, someone's gotta play cards. Where are the cards there? I don't know.

Jake table talk

I know, right?

Donnie table talk

I can't make him go away. So I'm going to keep clicking on him.

Connor table talk

Yeah, I can't see any of that.

Nutty table talk

Yeah, can't see cards.

Jake table talk

Is somebody sleeping?

Pat table talk

Yeah.

Jake table talk

Tough crap.

Donnie table talk

When you click on the card, Mm-hmm.

Donnie table talk

I don't know.

Rich table talk

Why are you fucking with my cards, Donnie?

Jess table talk

Continue.

Rich table talk

I only heard you say continue.

Jess table talk

To be continued.

Donnie table talk

Question one.

Rich table talk

Mm-hmm.

Jake table talk

Yeah, let's call it. It's midnight. Later this week, I'm down to play, but I got to go to sleep.

Ozan table talk

All right. Thank you, Jake.

Rich table talk

Deal.

Jake table talk

I'm Beth Asano.

Jess table talk

I'll have more of my shit together.

Jake table talk

Right. Me too.

Rich table talk

Good gaming. Word. Word. Word.

Donnie table talk

Much love y'all.

Nutty table talk

Yep. Bye guys.

Pat table talk

Night, everybody.

Rich table talk

Much love.

Jess table talk

No.

Rich table talk

Fucking awesome fucking job, Jake. Seriously.

Jake table talk

Thanks, man.

Rich table talk

Commendations. How do you like the first run on GM?

Jake

Oh, it's fine. It's awesome. I just wish I had that dynamic lighting down. I have like five maps that I just wasn't able to use in the unison. It's kind of pissing me off.

Rich

That seems to be one of the biggest learning curves. Figuring out how to work with that fucking interface.

Jake

It was fine. It would have been seamless too, which sucks.

Jake

Exactly what people see and yeah, I'll get it down.

Rich table talk

We'll get it down.

Rich table talk

I'm excited. It's going to go smooth.
