0:57

let's get moving to your local

0:59

store, like now. Go! Keep

1:27

trudging ahead in the lovely jungle

1:30

in search of this

1:32

gondola that you saw from the

1:34

cliffside nearby where you entered through

1:36

the Ayodara. Let's hunker down for

1:38

a bit and see what the routine is. It

1:41

seems like a gondola arrives every

1:43

30 minutes, stops there while

1:45

they're loading it, and then it continues.

1:48

You want to get onto the gondola thing. Does

1:50

it look like you can maybe jump into

1:53

one? I don't know. I say let's try the jump. I

1:55

want to try the jump. Platform takes off again.

1:57

As soon as it starts moving, Barnes goes. Zephyrb.

1:59

It backs up, run jumps, does it

2:01

with ease. I stumble,

2:04

I like trip right at the edge like a

2:06

soft ground gives away, but I make

2:08

it in. You begin. I'll take it

2:10

to gondola. About an hour or so

2:12

into the journey, and all of you

2:14

hear a sound, hears

2:16

the air. Ahh!

2:19

And suddenly, two large

2:21

flying creatures make one beak

2:24

strike at one of you.

2:27

Including Hubert. Including Hubert. One,

2:30

six. Six.

2:34

Yeah! It

2:36

then attempts to pluck Hubert

2:38

off of the john. Natural

2:40

20. Oh my god! It

2:42

grabs Hubert and throws

2:44

him off the plate. Oh my god! The

2:48

adventure continues... Now.

3:33

Hey, welcome back to the Good

3:35

Time Pal show featuring the Good

3:37

Time Pal Singers. Oh. I

3:39

don't know. That seems like a fun name. Ahh. Cheese,

3:43

cheese, cheese. I

3:48

like a little low beef. A little low beef? A

3:50

little base beef. I need a little more low beef.

3:54

Let's get that low beef foundation. We'll

3:56

start it there. Can I

3:58

get more cheese in my... Okay,

42:00

so I learned the highest weakness if it

42:02

has weaknesses. None. Okay. Then

42:05

I will exploit its personal antithesis.

42:07

No. Well, at the time. But

42:09

obviously it's out of my range right now, so instead

42:11

Barnes is gonna spend two actions to ready. And

42:13

the trigger's gonna be that either of the

42:15

Terradons comes within striking range of my

42:17

Kukri, I will strike. Boom sauce. Nice.

42:21

Awesome. I don't know. It's

42:24

so hard, I just wanna spell strike. I

42:27

can't. You just, some encounters. I know.

42:29

They're stacked against you specifically. Most

42:32

of these encounters have been so, but it'll

42:34

never come up. That's the thing, it's like

42:36

you weren't capable of the most damage in

42:38

one hit. So that's the limitation,

42:40

is like there's sometimes when you just can't

42:42

do it. You need the perfect circumstances. Yeah.

42:45

This is a fucking great idea. Get Kiebert over the edge.

42:47

Yeah. Delay. Yeah. Especially

42:50

with the stun one, it could get caught in melee and not

42:52

able to fly away. Yeah, it's a good chance. I can gamble

42:54

it, I can gamble it. And you can go. Somebody

42:56

asked me, they were like, are you enjoying playing

42:59

Amagus? Cause sometimes it doesn't feel like it. And

43:01

I'm like, no, I am. The character, the class

43:03

is so dope and it's so much fun. But

43:05

a lot of these combats are not made for

43:08

me to be like, then I do three attacks

43:10

in a row and it's crazy damage. It's not

43:12

like consistent damage. Rarely get that stuff off. Yeah.

43:15

The action economy, while it feels like you could

43:17

do a lot more, it's also like, you

43:20

feel like, ah, I'm one action away from

43:22

having my sweet turn the way I want

43:24

it. They're so OP, they're really not. Only

43:26

in extremely specific circumstances. I can do spells,

43:28

I have the distance, they're not that far

43:30

away. But I think just because of what

43:32

just happened, I will delay to see

43:35

if it comes within melee. So I'm standing

43:37

with my Katana at the ready, and she's

43:39

just like grinding her heel into the deck

43:41

of this box and getting ready, just waiting

43:43

for her moment. And I will

43:45

delay. I love it. Because ultimately, like you said, it's

43:47

a gamble, but not really. Because if it doesn't stay

43:49

within melee, then you're in the same place you were

43:51

anyway. And you just go and fire off a spell.

43:54

Great. That's Flying John

43:56

2's turn. And

43:58

it comes. How far did it fall? with

56:00

perception to point out this

56:02

weak spot. And what's the weak

56:04

spot? What do you say to it? Under the wing, it's

56:07

got a spot with no leather armor.

56:09

Natural 19. There we

56:11

go. It's balls. That's a 27. It's

56:13

balls. It's in the balls.

56:16

Is that a critical success? What's a

56:18

27? Well, now the

56:20

new DC is 15. If I keep

56:22

it at that, that would be a critical success. And I

56:25

will. Plus two, good buddy.

56:27

Nice. Nice. You've seen these. Natural

56:29

20. Oh! Oh! Oh!

56:31

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

56:35

Hell yeah. Now we get to see what he can do. All

56:38

right. And now I'll go with the kukri. You have weakness

56:40

3. That was amazing. I'll just add the

56:43

3 to my. OK, yes, the weakness

56:45

doesn't double, right? No. Got it.

56:47

Oh, does it double? What?

56:49

What? The creature has weakness 3 because the next one is

56:51

going double. No, the weakness doesn't double. But

56:53

you've got to pull up crit. Oh, right. Oh

56:56

my god. What are we doing? All right. What

56:58

are we doing? What are we doing? Is it

57:00

a melee attack? Yeah. Yeah, melee attack from Zach

57:02

W. in Raleigh, North Carolina. What's

57:04

up, Zach? Focusing strike.

57:07

In a single perfect moment, everything becomes

57:09

clear to you. Reduce any negative conditions

57:12

affecting you by one degree or

57:14

one round as appropriate, removing them if

57:16

they move due to zero. Double

57:20

damage. So unfortunately, this didn't work out

57:22

great for you. But that's a cool one. Yeah, that

57:24

is cool. Everything becomes clear to you. You get rid

57:26

of any distractions. But yeah, so double damage.

57:29

Thank you, Zach. 24 points of damage.

57:31

Oh, wow, Bob. 24 points

57:33

of damage. And it falls through the sky.

57:35

Yes. Yes. Oh, God,

57:37

the Abacus. Actually, we'll say its carcass

57:39

hit the platform and then just kind

57:41

of rolls. Yes. And bounces off

57:43

the force field and returns to the platform. And

57:46

she just can't fall. 10 more. 10 more.

57:48

10 more. This is really

57:51

unnecessary. Probably what

57:53

happens. Until it's just can't

57:55

slide through. We're just getting

57:57

hit with intestine blood. Yeah,

58:00

that's what happens. And it will cut. OK,

58:02

that was action one. OK. Wow. Action

58:05

two. Throw the longsword at the other one. No,

58:08

I'm going to attempt to demoralize the other. You're

58:11

going to jump and mount it? You sound like

58:13

me. Unwilling mount? Wait,

58:16

I'm mounting the dead Teranon? No, the one that's

58:18

flying out there. And then it's like, run, run,

58:20

run, run, run, run. And then fly to the

58:22

pyramid. Your longsword held high. It's

58:26

my country. I

58:29

will attempt to demoralize the remaining Teradon to kind

58:31

of get to shoot away. All right, give it hell.

58:34

You have intimidating glare. Do I

58:36

have intimidating glare? No. So I'm going to have to say something.

58:38

No, you can't. Because unless they speak your language. Yeah, right. You can't

58:40

do it at all. You just got to take a minus four. Because

58:43

that's what I was about to do. But I can do it. It's

58:45

a minus four. I believe

58:47

so. If the creature does not understand your language.

58:49

Minus four if you're not. Yeah,

58:52

if the target doesn't understand the language you're speaking or you're

58:54

not speaking a language, you take a minus four penalty. You

58:58

speak French. Dude, you

59:00

just rolled a natural 20. You do it again.

59:02

Yeah, just do it again. Why not? I just saw

59:04

this sick. Natural seven. Thing

59:06

here. No, that's not good. But. Sick

59:08

ability? This thing that I never saw

59:11

before. This must have been in the

59:13

new update of Foundry. I

59:15

can click on the monster. And if I

59:17

go over to notes, there's a clickable box

59:19

that says remaster, question mark. Ooh.

59:23

Oh. Wait, are

59:25

we going to do a mid-com remaster job?

59:27

This doesn't have any, I don't think, any

59:30

changes. But that's pretty

59:32

fucking great. It doesn't have magic missile.

59:34

It doesn't have force barrage. Awesome.

59:37

Is that your turn? Third action. A

59:40

lot of actions. Three, in fact. A

59:43

lot of actions. Barnes

59:45

will utter a minor incantation.

59:48

And you saw a small, the trail

59:50

of a tattoo on his arm, it

59:53

will glow. And then a shield will pop

59:55

up in front of him. Oh, cool. It's

59:57

the tattoos. A party in the back. That's

1:00:00

not worth it. It's not worth it. It's

1:00:02

not worth it. It's not worth it. It's not worth

1:00:04

it. It's not worth it. Back to

1:00:06

picture of a shield. A shield tattoo. That

1:00:09

is not as interesting. Certainly

1:00:11

not. Well you haven't seen the tattoo, you haven't seen

1:00:13

my tramps. I was about to say. It

1:00:16

could be other tattoos. You bend over and what do

1:00:18

we see? As your shirt comes up. A

1:00:20

little cyber-sigilism tramp stamp. Yeah.

1:00:22

What? A barcode? Well

1:00:25

the kids are getting these days. Cyber-sigilism? Yeah.

1:00:28

Cyber-sigilism tramp stamps. It's like tribal. Yeah

1:00:30

it's like high tech cyber-punk-y. Like a

1:00:32

barcode. Like a qr-code. Tribal has

1:00:34

come back in a big way. Like design,

1:00:36

free form, kind of tribal-esque but

1:00:39

it's called cyber-sigilism and

1:00:41

it kind of has cyber-punk-y tech vibes. We

1:00:43

are teaching you guys so much. I didn't

1:00:45

know tribal was out. You should wait. I've

1:00:47

been in since the 90s actually. No no. Tribal was

1:00:50

a big out. Tribal

1:00:52

was big out but now it's big in. Specifically

1:00:55

cyber-sigilism tramp stamps are in.

1:00:57

Ooh. So what do

1:00:59

you got back here? You think it what I'm thinking? Matching

1:01:01

tribal-sigilism? You know what? You want to roleplay a

1:01:03

love scene with me? Go find out. Ooh. I

1:01:06

bet you it's the Harley Davidson logo. Ooh don't

1:01:08

text him. That's right above it. I do. I

1:01:11

think it's a dolphin. A dolphin? A

1:01:13

cyber-sigil dolphin. Cyber-sigil dolphin. A

1:01:16

cyber-sigil dolphin. A cyber-sigil dolphin leaping

1:01:18

leaping up across the sunrise. Yeah.

1:01:20

They're cyber-y. There's so much we don't know about barns. I'm

1:01:24

going to think about these tattoos during this

1:01:26

next break. Submit

1:01:57

Sveshi Electric Products at Patriot Air dot

1:01:59

com. Let's

1:02:04

be honest, I'm

1:02:06

getting older. We're all getting

1:02:08

older. In

1:02:11

some ways, that's a very good thing. And

1:02:13

I enjoy how I've

1:02:15

become more seasoned, like

1:02:18

a nice cast iron skillet.

1:02:21

But another way is I feel like, you

1:02:24

know, after a night

1:02:27

of drinks, I don't bounce back the next day like

1:02:29

I used to. So

1:02:31

it comes down to a choice. I can either

1:02:33

have a great night out or a great next

1:02:35

day. Until now, because

1:02:37

now I have z-biotics. Z-biotics

1:02:40

pre-alcohol probiotic drink is the world's

1:02:42

first genetically engineered probiotic. It was

1:02:44

invented by PhD scientists to tackle

1:02:46

rough mornings after drinking. Here's how

1:02:48

it works. When you drink, alcohol

1:02:50

gets converted into a toxic byproduct

1:02:52

in the gut. It's this

1:02:54

byproduct, not dehydration, that's to blame for

1:02:56

your rough next day. Z-biotics produces an

1:02:58

enzyme to break this byproduct down. Just

1:03:01

remember to make z-biotics your first drink of

1:03:03

the night, drink responsibly, and you'll feel your

1:03:05

best tomorrow. Yeah, so I'll admit, I was

1:03:08

skeptical about this. I

1:03:12

was not an initial adopter.

1:03:15

Is that the actual term? I don't know.

1:03:17

I didn't gravitate towards it initially. But then,

1:03:19

you know, I gave

1:03:21

it a try and I was shocked at the results. And

1:03:24

I tried it again, and I was even more shocked.

1:03:26

And now, I keep some stock to my house in

1:03:28

case I'm going to go out and have a little

1:03:30

fun. And I gave them a stocking stuffers for my

1:03:32

family this year. Vacations, weddings,

1:03:34

birthdays, reunions, there's so much

1:03:36

going on. Get the most

1:04:03

you ZBiotics for sponsoring this episode, and

1:04:06

our good times. We're

1:04:10

back. I have so many gross things that I could

1:04:12

say that I won't. So we'll

1:04:14

move on to the other Flying

1:04:16

John, the one remaining creature. This

1:04:20

other one, I'm gonna say cannon wise, is

1:04:22

being thrown off and thrown back on and

1:04:24

just being pummeled to bits. So by the

1:04:27

time this fight is over, you will be

1:04:29

covered in the gore and viscera. That's really

1:04:31

gonna hurt our degree. I don't

1:04:33

think it will be doing that because it didn't

1:04:35

originate on the platform. That is true. Is

1:04:38

that how the magic works? I don't know, it's magic.

1:04:40

I'm pretty sure that's how it would work. I would say

1:04:42

that if the magic would be pretty shitty if it

1:04:44

didn't work, that when it lands back on it, it

1:04:46

just stays back on. Any leaf, any bird.

1:04:49

A bird flies on the platform. Unless we kick it

1:04:51

off. Every time it puts a stone back on, it

1:04:53

just falls back on. I kinda like the idea, though

1:04:55

it's so big, that's why all of you can attack

1:04:57

it without moving, that it just keeps falling off. If

1:05:00

it's that big, it can't be fully on. By the

1:05:02

end, it's just like a wing that's being slapped up

1:05:04

with bones hanging from it. It's like glitching. Yeah, it's

1:05:06

so gross. One, two, three, four, five, four, little here,

1:05:08

but it's six. Bugles.

1:05:11

No, not the boy. Could you feel it coming,

1:05:13

Skid? I saw your face. I really could, I

1:05:15

could feel it coming. Not the boy. You were

1:05:17

very loud and it heard you. It did. Here

1:05:20

comes the beak. I've been rolling shit with the beak. Let's see. That's

1:05:25

a critical. That's a 29. Well,

1:05:28

yeah, that's critical. All

1:05:30

right, critical hit. Let's just deal with

1:05:32

the damage here to start with.

1:05:35

It is going to be, I need a d10. 20

1:05:39

points of piercing damage. All

1:05:41

right, so this is actually gonna get pretty

1:05:43

nasty. So it swoops in, does the attack,

1:05:46

20 points of piercing, and then free action,

1:05:48

it's going to throw you. If this succeeds,

1:05:50

it'll be another 10 points of damage. Obviously,

1:05:52

that doesn't crit. So this is four athletics

1:05:54

against your four to two DC. So four to

1:05:57

two plus 10. And

1:06:00

I rolled a 10. Oh,

1:06:03

that's a fail. That's a fail. All right, so

1:06:05

it's a regular failure. The Teradon

1:06:07

fails to move the target creature. You

1:06:09

rolled an adjusted 10? An adjusted

1:06:12

10, yeah. I'm guessing

1:06:14

the bonus on this is not particularly high. Remember I rolled a

1:06:16

20. It's two hit is plus 10. It's

1:06:19

athletics. I know, but I'm thinking it's athletics got to be similar. So

1:06:21

it's like he had to roll a natural on it. Remember I

1:06:23

rolled an at 20 on Hubert. I just rolled a, well I don't

1:06:25

want to tell you what I rolled, but I rolled a really poor

1:06:27

one. I feel like it's like a one or a two on

1:06:30

it. All right, so it does not. That's

1:06:32

awesome. Huge. Yeah, that's because you get your

1:06:34

turn now. Yes, because

1:06:36

otherwise you'd be unconscious almost certain.

1:06:38

One, two, it's going to final

1:06:41

action fly away, create some distance,

1:06:43

and now it is Boggle's turn.

1:06:45

Okay, so Boggle's,

1:06:49

he gets attacked and

1:06:51

nearly dropped by this

1:06:53

thing. And

1:06:55

he like clutches at his, at the

1:06:58

wound. It's like Ben's head down when

1:07:00

he lifts it back up. His eyes

1:07:03

are, oh, you know they are. Oh

1:07:05

no subtitles. It's like, I will pull

1:07:07

you from the sky. He

1:07:12

is going to do a, so how far away

1:07:14

is it? Uh, 30 feet. Then

1:07:17

he has the Terre D'on flies.

1:07:19

He's going to do, he's

1:07:21

going to do a frostbite.

1:07:23

Frostbite. So please give me

1:07:26

a fortitude set. From

1:07:28

that 20. Damn it. Glad

1:07:32

that wasn't on the... Yeah.

1:07:36

Okay. Uh, and I, shit,

1:07:39

I raised a shield. Okay, this shield comes

1:07:41

back up, uh, and

1:07:44

now it goes to round three.

1:07:47

And it's Asta's turn now that one of them has

1:07:49

died. This one has not been yet. Okay.

1:07:52

What is, it's still 10 feet away or

1:07:54

what's... 30 feet away. It's 30 feet

1:07:56

away now. Okay. Can hold again and delay. Ready.

1:08:00

No, because because it has all actions

1:08:02

it's gonna be coming in and coming back out. I don't think

1:08:04

that makes sense I'm gonna have to just cast a

1:08:06

spell I'm going to

1:08:09

cast phase bolt. Okay, so that is

1:08:11

a two hit. So let me Quick

1:08:15

question your spell strike you still can't use

1:08:17

it right so she cast a spell. Yeah,

1:08:19

it's not just any spell You have to

1:08:21

ask a focus spell. I can also cast

1:08:23

a spell It's either my focus spells or I

1:08:25

cast a spell and then I get to do

1:08:27

it. Are you sure about that? I

1:08:30

thought I somebody wrote in and was like you

1:08:32

can only recharge spell strike through the use of

1:08:34

your You know,

1:08:37

let's look. Yeah, this is how we learn. This is

1:08:39

how we learn. Oh, no, sorry It's

1:08:41

through my focus spell or I spend an action

1:08:44

Recharging. Okay, so you just have to at least Okay,

1:08:47

great. All right. So a conflict

1:08:50

spell though. I mean a complex spell Thank you not

1:08:52

if so it has to be a conflict spell or

1:08:54

you can focus it out doesn't recharge Got

1:08:56

it. Oh wait a focus belt doesn't

1:08:58

recharge your spell only Wait,

1:09:01

but your conflict spells I think use

1:09:03

focus points. I fell yeah, it does. That's

1:09:05

why it's confusing Yeah, you also you also you

1:09:08

can do a single action single action which has

1:09:10

the concentrate rate You also recharge your spell strike

1:09:12

when you cast a conflict spell that takes at

1:09:14

least one action to cast Casting a focus spell

1:09:17

of another type doesn't recharge your spell right? So

1:09:19

it is a focus spell. It's just not it's

1:09:21

a conflict It's a conflict or and

1:09:23

that's because conflict spells are single actions So

1:09:25

it's either that or you take a single

1:09:27

action to recharge it. Yeah. All right, so

1:09:30

I am going to cast Phase

1:09:32

bolt. Okay, here we go. Yeah That's

1:09:36

gonna be 17 miss Thought

1:09:41

that was a hit All

1:09:44

right, so then for my third

1:09:46

action this isn't Dungeons and Dragons

1:09:50

I'm just gonna I'm gonna recharge. I'll recharge my

1:09:52

spouse. She's a 5e with your

1:09:54

actual friends. Yeah I'm

1:09:56

recharging my spike. You just say you're not

1:09:58

friends with Sydney. Yeah She pays. She said that

1:10:01

to us. You said that to her. You said that to me.

1:10:03

Oh, that's right. And everybody heard it. I got a twitch. I

1:10:05

got a twitch in my left eye. Are you okay? Is

1:10:08

this how the founder of Twitch created? That's

1:10:10

how I come up with the name. He's like, I have an idea. What

1:10:13

should I call it? Small

1:10:16

penis. That's my turn. No. Twitch.

1:10:18

Yeah. Another thing that has

1:10:21

to do with it. Brother Rameus. Brother

1:10:24

Ramu, this is another four points

1:10:26

of damage up your sleeve. I

1:10:29

mean, you mock, but like, man,

1:10:31

it's hard for us to deal massive

1:10:33

damage without, you know, big builds like

1:10:35

the thaumaturge. Look at the big build

1:10:38

on barns. The big build on barns.

1:10:40

Ooh, big build barns. Big build barns.

1:10:42

He kind of likes it. They called

1:10:44

me in high school. Big build barns.

1:10:47

I like the sound of that. Yeah, I think

1:10:49

I'm gonna take a round off here from fighting

1:10:51

and I'm going to move to Bugle, seeing how

1:10:53

in pain he is. He's going

1:10:55

to rush up to Bugle's. Bugles!

1:10:57

And he reaches into his robes and he pulls

1:10:59

out some, you

1:11:02

know, like cloth wrapping to just sort of

1:11:04

like staunch the bleeding. So he's gonna do

1:11:06

battle medicine on Bugle's and try

1:11:08

to get you some HP back. Okay.

1:11:11

Little Batmed. Little Batmed. Oh,

1:11:14

critical success. Nice. Huge, nasty

1:11:16

19. Nice, huge, batmed. Batmed!

1:11:22

That is freaking awesome. Okay,

1:11:24

so that is going to be 15 points of healing. Nice.

1:11:28

Okay. Yeah, actually, when you do that. Oh,

1:11:31

right. I forgot it's the cool of time.

1:11:33

Yeah, he like snaps at your arm, like

1:11:35

as you're, as you touch him. Don't you

1:11:37

snap at me! He like

1:11:39

yells back at you and like this frenzy, like his

1:11:41

eyes are wide. He's sweating. He's

1:11:43

got blood from the other creature all over his face.

1:11:46

And he looks kind of as, as mad as you

1:11:48

do in a way, you know. Okay. Don't

1:11:50

you snap at me! I'm trying to help him. Okay.

1:11:53

And yeah, you just hear this like, this like low

1:11:55

growl that doesn't sound like it could come from his

1:11:57

body. It's just like, just

1:11:59

gurgling. up from his throat. Is the bullhorn

1:12:01

still in effect? Yeah, I think actually... That's

1:12:03

so funny. Like for the next minute. You

1:12:05

just... Yeah, 10 minutes. So, everything you say

1:12:07

is unnaturally projected.

1:12:13

And we don't understand it. Right, right.

1:12:16

He's still got an action left. Yeah, he's still got an

1:12:18

action left and so he will use it to... He

1:12:21

will use it to aid Barnes once... Oh,

1:12:23

no, he'll use it to aid Zephyr

1:12:27

as the creature flew away. And

1:12:29

he'll comment on

1:12:31

the power of the wind. The

1:12:34

wind's moving right to left. Sounds like a

1:12:36

perception. Aim right. Yeah. All right, great.

1:12:39

It's Hubert Hedges turn and Hubert's like,

1:12:41

oh, brother buggers, you all

1:12:43

right? I had

1:12:46

saved this. I didn't

1:12:48

want to waste it, but I've

1:12:50

got some snail jerky. If you

1:12:53

think this will give you a little extra strength,

1:12:55

he moves to you and holds out some little

1:12:58

green colored jerky. What does the Kulakan think

1:13:00

of Hubert? Hungry?

1:13:03

Yeah, the Kulakan. Looks

1:13:05

like you're hurt. Just put

1:13:07

this in your mouth. Um,

1:13:11

the Kulakan just

1:13:13

like... and

1:13:16

fights his fist. He picks his

1:13:18

entire mouth, his entire little hand

1:13:20

in his mouth.

1:13:22

Oh goodness. And he's like

1:13:25

biting really hard. Just like he won't let

1:13:27

go. Just take the jerky, just the jerky.

1:13:29

It was Susan's favorite.

1:13:31

And he pulls back and his

1:13:33

little goblin teeth are scraping against

1:13:36

his skin as he rips the

1:13:38

jerky out of his hand. And

1:13:43

the blood from the scrapes like

1:13:45

dripping down the sides of his... Oh,

1:13:47

but I need some healing. No.

1:13:53

I did get thrown from this thing. Brother

1:13:55

Regan says, what stands up in Noxi-Ridathia? And

1:13:59

then he comes right back. I rolled

1:14:01

an ad he's 17. I forgot to do it last round

1:14:03

so he's no longer second. It is

1:14:05

Zephyr's turn Alright, so the last

1:14:07

one standing is 30 feet away. I'm

1:14:09

going to get back into monastic archer

1:14:19

1:14:22

1:14:37

1:14:42

little balls are just like flowing in the direction of

1:14:44

the wind Like

1:14:46

a wind sock. Why are they blowing in the moon? This

1:14:49

must be one old dinosaur So

1:14:52

big yes, it's so old large

1:14:54

creature all balls though natural

1:14:56

20 Oh Yo,

1:15:05

brother Amy is crit natural 20

1:15:07

crit natural 20 you've got the

1:15:09

crit The crit Here

1:15:15

let's do this roll the second attack just because

1:15:17

let's just see what happens here You're good. You're

1:15:19

good. Wait, wait, wait, wait, what'd you say you

1:15:21

roll the second attack? She's gonna combine this damage.

1:15:23

We don't know if this could affect the attack

1:15:25

roll of the next attack This

1:15:27

one from Patrick in Surrey British

1:15:30

Columbia, Canada This

1:15:35

one's called lucky sevens double

1:15:38

damage whether from dumb luck or

1:15:40

divine providence the power of the number seven guide

1:15:42

you to greater success for the

1:15:44

next seven rounds Anytime you roll

1:15:46

a die that has a seven in one of the digits

1:15:48

receive plus one to your result for each seven I

1:15:51

just rolled a 17 for my second attack

1:15:53

Oh, it's an 18. So

1:15:55

it'll be a 21. I rolled a natural 17

1:15:58

on the dice. Oh, yeah, so what it means Yeah,

1:16:00

so it just means you get a plus one to your result for

1:16:02

every seven. It's a 21 is of a 20 for the second Alright,

1:16:05

so here's how it's gonna work. You're gonna double the

1:16:07

first damage Though second the regular

1:16:09

the other damage will be regular But then

1:16:12

you add deadly d10 and you

1:16:14

combine all that together. So the first

1:16:16

arrow that is doubled Vampulcate

1:16:18

natural one. That's two points plus

1:16:20

the deadly d10 Is

1:16:24

a six so it's seven points of damage wait

1:16:26

you said two plus six I know

1:16:29

because I roll the one on my

1:16:31

date damage It's eight eight. If you rolled a

1:16:33

two within a six, that's eight one double this

1:16:35

two plus no eight It's

1:16:38

right. You just have lucky sevens on the brain.

1:16:40

Yeah. Yeah eight points of damage so far and

1:16:43

then the second one second one This

1:16:47

is great I forgot That's

1:16:50

seven points of damage That's

1:16:53

eight And

1:16:57

stunning fist applies so right so sixteen

1:16:59

points of damage and Stunning

1:17:01

fist this is going to be a better not roll get

1:17:04

a result of seven on that die You

1:17:06

just done for an extra 22. That's a

1:17:09

pass. Okay damn cool Fun

1:17:12

and I still have one more action that

1:17:15

you're gonna get a plus one two because

1:17:17

I am lucky sevens, right? No, you just

1:17:19

if you yeah, if you roll a seven

1:17:21

on this, it's plus one to whatever the

1:17:23

result would um I think I'm

1:17:25

just gonna go for the extra hit with

1:17:28

my long bow. Yeah, might as well might as well I

1:17:30

think it should be cumulative Otherwise,

1:17:33

it's like oh Miss

1:17:37

miss it could make the difference between hitting and missing though

1:17:40

or a crit if you rolled a 17 17 plus one

1:17:43

It is very helpful 17. Yeah, seven

1:17:45

is seven. It's like yeah, did you

1:17:49

Miss yep. Okay missed however round

1:17:51

there by Zephyr do alive New

1:17:55

guy what he got it's flying out there.

1:17:58

I'm gonna do the same thing. I'm I'm gonna

1:18:00

first action raise shield just to keep it up

1:18:03

and then two actions ready if

1:18:05

it comes within range esoteric

1:18:07

lore Exploit weakness

1:18:09

that you then have that to all

1:18:11

creatures of that type. Yes Whereas

1:18:14

no not the type that has to be the

1:18:17

same creature. Yeah. Yeah by mean time I mean

1:18:19

exact same you're fighting ten orcs, you know to

1:18:21

do it for each individual. Exactly. Okay, cool But

1:18:24

a bit about well it is its turn

1:18:26

it begins swooping towards you take your action.

1:18:28

Okay Okay

1:18:35

Here's a question so we didn't do this

1:18:37

before its swoop is a two action John

1:18:40

that includes the beak strike Huh, I think

1:18:42

I interrupt your reading. Yeah, that's how I

1:18:44

ruled it last time, but it is interesting,

1:18:46

right? That's why I read

1:18:48

it instead of doing yeah I'm fine it makes sense and

1:18:50

sort of the story that we're telling here just something I

1:18:53

know that's the actual rules Like he

1:18:55

gets to roll that before its actions

1:18:57

complete because if he crits it disrupts

1:19:00

stopping the action right? Okay,

1:19:02

not great damage ten points of damage ten

1:19:05

points of damage Actually, I don't know that

1:19:07

you that you stop the action the confidence

1:19:09

which you said it made That's

1:19:12

the a-o-o rule. That's the a-o-o rule. This is

1:19:14

not an a-o. I forgot this is a ready

1:19:16

attack So maybe it wouldn't stop it. But yeah,

1:19:18

I think it's right. I think there's a world

1:19:20

Well, whatever in the story that we're telling this

1:19:22

to me makes the most sense You are literally

1:19:24

waiting for it to come and you attack it

1:19:26

before it attacks you. So here's what happens It

1:19:30

comes in to try and bite you and

1:19:33

you're like batter up What are you using

1:19:35

your kukri and you just show you slice

1:19:37

this thing and it's now really hurt after

1:19:39

Zephyr hit it And

1:19:41

it flies away You

1:19:47

took it below the Threshold

1:19:49

the the pre-written threshold for it

1:19:51

to flee after its lover

1:19:53

was killed You

1:19:56

have won the combat There's

1:19:59

a brief moment of self and then

1:20:01

the deteriorated body of

1:20:03

the air turret and

1:20:06

it slides off. Grab it. Did you

1:20:08

grab it? Uh,

1:20:11

all right. So you are safe,

1:20:13

and shockingly, only Hubert was thrown

1:20:16

off. Hubert. That is shocking.

1:20:18

And very cool. I'm so sorry. Did he

1:20:20

hurt you? He's like, he says, please, please.

1:20:23

Hubert recoils. Why did you do that? I'm

1:20:25

so sorry. Why would he do that? Why

1:20:27

wouldn't you bite me? I'm so sorry. He's

1:20:30

offering you my jerky. He does things sometimes.

1:20:32

I'm, may I see? Who

1:20:34

he? He,

1:20:37

he's, I'm sorry. I'm

1:20:40

sorry. Please,

1:20:43

I'm sorry. What happened to

1:20:45

you? Why are you so sick? I

1:20:48

don't, I don't know. It's, it's,

1:20:52

it's not me. He

1:20:54

helps me sometimes, but I

1:20:56

can't always control. I'm sorry.

1:20:59

Can't you cure him? You

1:21:01

do all these other things to heal us.

1:21:03

Can't you cure him of his illness? I

1:21:05

know your voice. I'm bleeding all over myself.

1:21:07

Come here. Turds. He's not

1:21:09

sick. He becomes a

1:21:12

different person. It's called sick where I

1:21:14

come from. It's really quite remarkable.

1:21:16

If you think about it. What

1:21:18

is that? Bonds. What? What's

1:21:21

remarkable? What is remarkable, yeah. Remarkable means it's quite

1:21:23

special. Oh, with the definition

1:21:25

of the word remarkable, it's- That's not important

1:21:27

right now. I was looking for clarification on

1:21:30

what is remarkable. So many books, you don't

1:21:32

know what remarkable means. Hospital,

1:21:34

what is it? Hospital. Hospital, what is

1:21:37

that? Building with patients. That's important right

1:21:39

now. A

1:21:41

big building with patients. That's not important right

1:21:44

now. Brother

1:21:47

Amias is going to call Hubert

1:21:49

over and attempt

1:21:51

to treat wounds. Bloody on my hand. As

1:21:54

we are flying through the air. Use your highest

1:21:57

magics on me. Please, I need

1:21:59

to focus. Have

1:24:00

one. Just like you had

1:24:02

Susan. Oh. Maybe.

1:24:09

Tired. I'm gonna lay down. Would you consider jumping

1:24:12

off so we could test the effects of the

1:24:14

Oh, my horns! No, I'm not

1:24:16

feeling well. I'm gonna... Magical

1:24:18

healing. I'm gonna sit. Tell

1:24:20

me when we get to the village. Perhaps

1:24:23

we all should sit. That,

1:24:25

um, that was quite a lot,

1:24:27

wasn't it? Yes, I'm feeling... Yeah.

1:24:31

Always these days. Rather exhausted.

1:24:33

Remember, he's still drained. Yeah. He looks like gaunt,

1:24:36

right? By his own choice, I guess. It was

1:24:38

from a crit, right? Yeah, he'd choose to become

1:24:40

drained. He expended extra energy to... So he sits

1:24:42

down on this platform. How far does it look

1:24:44

like we are from the village? Um,

1:24:47

you think you'll be there by sunset? So

1:24:50

hours? Couple hours. Couple hours still left. Okay.

1:24:53

Not eight hours. Not eight, okay. Two

1:24:55

and a half, maybe, if you're judging

1:24:57

very quickly. Wow. Just incredible. Cool. I

1:24:59

was just reading Exploit Vulnerability. It's

1:25:01

in effect until I Exploit Vulnerability again.

1:25:03

So that if any other pterodons were

1:25:06

to come in the next two hours,

1:25:08

I feasibly could gain that benefits.

1:25:11

Brother Amius is going to look out over the jungle

1:25:14

canopy, as the wind

1:25:16

is kind of blowing across his face

1:25:19

and ruffling his robes. And he's

1:25:21

thinking about the pterodon that he

1:25:23

had heard of.

1:25:25

These are unnaturally large. Did

1:25:28

he hear of them being from

1:25:31

another planet? Or

1:25:33

from primal Galarian? No,

1:25:36

you've heard of them, um, not

1:25:39

like all over Galarian, but certain parts

1:25:41

of Galarian. Like existing today in certain

1:25:43

parts of Galarian. Much smaller. But

1:25:45

yeah, smaller. These were larger than any

1:25:47

that you had read about. Gotcha. Can

1:25:49

I roll a knowledge check on

1:25:52

the force field magic, whatever it was

1:25:54

that bounced cheaper back? Yeah, give me an arcana and

1:25:56

you can go ahead and roll it. I'm going to

1:25:58

use esoteric lore in a minus two. because

1:26:00

my diverse law. Okay, 90 18

1:26:03

for 24. Okay,

1:26:07

yeah, there seems

1:26:12

to be some kind of like

1:26:14

abjuration magic at work to that

1:26:17

acts like a hidden safety feature.

1:26:20

So that, if anything, any of the cargo

1:26:22

or any person was being transported back and

1:26:26

forth, you are pulled

1:26:28

back on. That is

1:26:30

so awesome. Yeah, I mean, it's very,

1:26:32

very cool out there. Magic. I've never

1:26:35

heard it just feels like abjuration doesn't

1:26:37

feel like anything particular. Yeah, I mean, everything about

1:26:39

this alien from the

1:26:41

doesn't really seem alien, but

1:26:43

everything about this from this

1:26:45

the crackling electricity that it's

1:26:48

riding along is some like

1:26:50

really advanced magic going on

1:26:52

here. I don't think

1:26:54

yeah, brother Amius is just kind

1:26:56

of resting and watching and trying

1:26:58

to keep an eye

1:27:00

out for any creatures coming. Basically, Remus,

1:27:03

are you all right? You don't look well. I'm

1:27:06

fine buckles. Thank you for asking. I

1:27:09

just feel rather weak. I'd like for I'd love

1:27:12

to rest. Sit down, sit down. He's like kind

1:27:14

of tugging on you to kind of get you

1:27:16

to lie down and like actually rest. I was

1:27:20

trying to keep my eyes peeled to

1:27:22

the skyline. I watch. I watch you

1:27:24

can watch Barnes Zephyr has

1:27:26

to can all watch. Don't

1:27:28

feel like you need to do everything. Barnes

1:27:31

had you seen those creatures before they you

1:27:34

seem to know exactly what to strike them.

1:27:36

Yes. Well, Terredons. Yes.

1:27:40

I have done my research.

1:27:43

I had heard of them in books as well.

1:27:45

But I've never seen them so unnaturally

1:27:49

large. It is

1:27:52

unusual. Still

1:27:55

can't account for where we are geographically.

1:27:58

No, I know. I know not

1:28:00

what country would contain such beasts. And

1:28:04

who, any looks across the village, could

1:28:06

survive in such a place. I

1:28:08

think we'll soon find out. I

1:28:11

think we will. Bugles, thank you. Thank

1:28:14

you for keeping an eye on Barnes. I

1:28:16

may take that nap. And

1:28:19

thank you, Brother Rameus, for helping Hubert.

1:28:24

Oh, it is my duty. It's

1:28:27

my job, and you as well, Bugles. And

1:28:31

you as well. And he sort

1:28:33

of like lays down, and just like folds up his hood of

1:28:35

his robe under to get a little bit of padding. Still

1:28:38

covered in blood. So

1:28:40

Asta will just pop

1:28:42

her katana out of its sheath slightly to

1:28:45

have it ready. But she

1:28:48

is still braiding this red piece

1:28:50

of twine. It's

1:28:54

very similar to the red that's like tied around

1:28:56

her robe, the red that's on her katana, like

1:28:58

this tassel that comes off. And you see her

1:29:00

also cutting

1:29:02

off pieces of her own fur and also

1:29:05

weaving it into this red, like

1:29:09

a tassel almost. And now she's

1:29:11

keeping watch while Rameus and Hubert

1:29:13

are napping, and she just is

1:29:15

kind of mindlessly braiding

1:29:17

this and looking out at the

1:29:19

expanse of land. And possibly

1:29:22

also every so often glancing over

1:29:24

to Zephyr, just to see if

1:29:26

Zephyr is looking at her. Zephyr's,

1:29:29

she's sitting down and she's still holding her bow

1:29:31

but just kind of looking at it. And

1:29:34

just, because she lost it

1:29:36

during the fight with the slug. It's

1:29:38

back now, this is the first time she's

1:29:40

used it. And

1:29:42

she did really well. So she's kind of like,

1:29:45

is this my bow? Is something different

1:29:48

now? Like just hyper analyzing that. Did

1:29:50

Barnes do something? And then maybe she

1:29:52

like sees you. She's like, is

1:29:57

that your hair? Um.

1:30:00

Some of it. What

1:30:02

are you doing? I was just... I'm

1:30:05

just working on something, making something that I

1:30:07

think could bring... bring

1:30:09

us luck. Sort of a thing

1:30:12

we used to do. Braiding

1:30:14

together pieces. Huh.

1:30:18

Does it work? Um... Mmm...

1:30:22

I mean, yes. Do you believe in

1:30:24

luck? She like, looks back

1:30:26

down at the bow. I

1:30:30

don't know. Maybe

1:30:32

before? No? Maybe

1:30:35

now? I

1:30:37

could. I

1:30:40

wanted to apologize for how I acted earlier.

1:30:43

I'm sorry. It wasn't... fair

1:30:47

to you. I'm

1:30:50

sorry. She

1:30:52

looks away. Very uncomfortable. Elsa

1:30:55

also looks away. Feelings. Not sure

1:30:57

if you want to... Sorry, I mean

1:30:59

to you. Okay.

1:31:03

I don't know... I don't know why.

1:31:06

So glad I'm sleeping through this. I'd

1:31:09

be crippled. We should probably just get along. Oh

1:31:12

god, it's so awkward. Oh god! I'm

1:31:15

gonna try to not be mean. I'm gonna try to

1:31:17

not be mean. I

1:31:19

don't know. I don't know why I do the things I do

1:31:21

sometimes. I don't know why I say the things I say. Sometimes

1:31:23

they're so mean. I don't mean to say them. I

1:31:26

just come out. And I didn't mean

1:31:28

to say the mean things to you.

1:31:30

I just felt... cornered?

1:31:33

I don't know. Yeah,

1:31:35

I know. I guess I didn't have to, you know, yell

1:31:38

at you for no reason. I didn't need

1:31:40

the rocks. And... I don't know. I

1:31:43

guess I can let you be you. You don't need to fit into my box.

1:31:46

And you're so strong. And you're so brave. And

1:31:49

you can do cool stuff. You're

1:31:51

amazing with your bow and I'm happy you have it back. Your

1:31:56

luck charm is cool. I was

1:31:58

actually... I was making it thinking maybe you could have it. Really?

1:32:01

Yeah, when I'm finished with it, I don't know if you wanted,

1:32:03

who cares? She throws it off the

1:32:05

side. I

1:32:07

come right back with it. That's right.

1:32:10

That's right. Jion's in Zephyr's hands. Well,

1:32:12

thank God, I didn't want to... I didn't want

1:32:14

to throw it. I'm glad it came back. That's

1:32:16

what I mean. Sometimes

1:32:19

I make such impulsive decisions. I

1:32:22

mean, it's not the worst thing in the world doing

1:32:25

that, or it's not bad. I don't know. And getting to spend

1:32:27

time with you is not the worst thing in the world. I

1:32:30

should stop acting like it is. You're really cool. And

1:32:34

I think we could be friends,

1:32:36

and we would have been friends had we known each other

1:32:38

when we were younger. You

1:32:41

think I'm cool? Yeah, you... Oh.

1:32:46

Yeah, did you see yourself? No. Oh.

1:32:52

You were so amazing. You're so amazing

1:32:54

in every fight, and I

1:32:57

understand why you care so much about... ...brother

1:33:00

Rheemius and... ...and Bugles

1:33:03

and your other friends who aren't

1:33:05

here. And...

1:33:09

...and I really look up to you, and I would like

1:33:12

to be your friend. Okay,

1:33:15

let's start over. Okay, let's start over. Starting from

1:33:17

now. Starting now. Choose a lot of feelings all

1:33:19

at once. I'm Asta. I'm

1:33:23

Zephyr. I almost said I'm Kate. You're

1:33:27

really in the zone. I

1:33:29

think we're seeing some Sydney Kate drama play

1:33:31

out here is what I'm saying. And Bugles...

1:33:33

What happened on tour? Bugles

1:33:37

just starts clapping. It's

1:33:39

like, you're talking to each other again. Maybe

1:33:42

now they realize that maybe everyone can hear. Everyone

1:33:45

has, we are not. We're like 10 feet away.

1:33:48

It's kind of awkward they're trying to not be in your

1:33:50

business. When

1:33:52

I finish this all, I will give it to you.

1:33:55

Awesome, cool, thanks. I'll try to... Maybe

1:33:57

if I'm creative, I'll give you something sometime.
