Iva
00:00:00I can see the blue-green for Iva.
Rhysaene
00:00:03She’s such a similar counter character indeed.
Iva
00:00:03And the shapeshifter tag?
Luma
00:00:05And
Dungeon Master
00:00:07um,
Luma
00:00:09I don’t know magic coloring, because the only thing I could think of was just like, oh, she makes artifacts colorless.
Dungeon Master
00:00:09in terms of anything.
Hazel
00:00:09systemic hybrid.00:00:14Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:00:15Luma’s is it as fuck.
Luma
00:00:17Yeah.
Iva
00:00:17And
Hazel
00:00:18Hazel could also be black and white with their healing nonsense.
Dungeon Master
00:00:18Always is.00:00:21yeah.00:00:24Yeah, that’s pretty true. I think it’s specifically the shape shifting that makes it pretty green.
Hazel
00:00:29Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:00:31Um,00:00:33Would someone like to give us a quick recap of last session?
Hazel
00:00:39Temerity whooped someone’s ass!
Temerity
00:00:42Hehehehe.
Dungeon Master
00:00:42- Thank you.
Iva
00:00:42Was that a session? Oh, fuck.
Dungeon Master
00:00:43That was, I think that was the session before last.
Rhysaene
00:00:43Woo-hoo!
Iva
00:00:45Yeah, wasn’t that true, though?
Temerity
00:00:48I believe so.
Hazel
00:00:49Was it?00:00:50Shit, I thought that was last set.00:00:52Oh my goodness, I’m sorry.
Dungeon Master
00:00:53No.
Iva
00:00:54Would anyone like to give the session recap?
Hazel
00:00:58Thank you.
Iva
00:00:59It shouldn’t be…
Hazel
00:01:00No, right.
Iva
00:01:01I don’t know.
Hazel
00:01:02The last session we got, we, we, we,00:01:07We got inducted into the, into the blades.00:01:10It would be that…
Temerity

Hazel
00:01:13Besss.00:01:14The Unbound, yes.00:01:16Um,
Dungeon Master
00:01:16Yes.
Hazel
00:01:17They showed themselves to us.
Dungeon Master
00:01:21Yeah, which means also last session Luma got fired.
Temerity
00:01:26Yeah, I have that in my notes.
Hazel
00:01:26Yes.
Temerity
00:01:27Aluma arrived for work and then all caption ready fired.
Luma
00:01:28Good job, Liz.
Temerity
00:01:31Yeah.
Luma
00:01:32-
Dungeon Master
00:01:32It’s just…
Hazel
00:01:33Rub it in, Deb.
Temerity
00:01:34No, that’s bad.
Dungeon Master
00:01:35Yeah, oof.00:01:37All right.
Luma
00:01:38Mm-hmm.
Hazel
00:01:38See you.
Luma
00:01:40You’re fired.
Temerity
00:01:42I’m fired.00:01:44at all.
Dungeon Master
00:01:46Um,00:01:48Luma got fired…00:01:50got interviewed by…00:01:54Rurik Hulduro, her arch-rival historian,
Luma
00:01:59No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Hold on. We got to correct that.
Dungeon Master
00:01:59Um,
Luma
00:02:01Luma doesn’t consider this man to be our rival. He’s a shitty historian.
Temerity
00:02:06Yeah.
Hazel
00:02:06Yeah.
Luma
00:02:08He’s not good enough to be a rival.
Dungeon Master
00:02:08I don’t know.00:02:10He’s the one with the book.
Luma
00:02:10Fuck that guy.00:02:13Yeah. So00:02:14I could write a book.
Temerity
00:02:15- Okay.
Iva
00:02:15Okay.00:02:16Lots of people with shitty opinions write books.
Dungeon Master
00:02:16- Yeah.
Temerity
00:02:16you
Luma
00:02:19Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:02:19Um,00:02:20Interviewed by…
Luma
00:02:20He’s a knuckle baby.
Dungeon Master
00:02:22Interviewed by Rurik Hulduro and Thaddeus Marwins.
Luma
00:02:22- Sorry.
Dungeon Master
00:02:27the00:02:28the essentially head lawyer of the synod of the Silver Flame.00:02:33um,00:02:35was found to have not committed any crimes, but was still held to be fired.00:02:40uh,00:02:41because of her lack of doing her due diligence00:02:46and not going into forbidden areas.00:02:49Whether that’s fair, no, not really, probably not.00:02:53But.00:02:54That is how it was.
Luma
00:02:54- What do you mean? - Oh, yeah.00:02:56the entire vault was a forbidden area, right?
Dungeon Master
00:02:58Uh-huh.
Luma
00:02:59Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:03:00You were… sorry, game was rigged from the start it seems.
Luma
00:03:05Yeah.
Temerity
00:03:06laughs
Dungeon Master
00:03:07Um,
Luma
00:03:07Well, my brain was like, wait a minute.00:03:09We didn’t go.00:03:10We didn’t tell him we wouldn’t do it.
Dungeon Master
00:03:11We were very careful about that.
Luma
00:03:13Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:03:13Um,
Hazel
00:03:14Peace, peace, peace, peace.
Dungeon Master
00:03:15Alas.00:03:17um,00:03:18You were inducted into the stacks by Amber Deepdraft, who Luma actually had met previously all the way back in session zero.00:03:29Um,00:03:30a senior vaultsmith who seems to be running a side gig as a sort of like00:03:38Radical History Club?00:03:41It’s not entirely clear what you would call the unbound.
Hazel
00:03:41- Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:03:45Um,00:03:48There was also a00:03:51Rhys spent most of the several days this took00:03:55Um,00:03:56trying to, trying to, uh,00:03:59supernaturally ascertain information about the ledger Daisy had been looking for in the previous session before that one, succeeding in the final00:04:10Um,00:04:10in the final evening before the morning where session will begin in00:04:16receiving a vision of a,00:04:19theater of some sort.00:04:21stage and00:04:22uh,00:04:23then back00:04:25and a loose floorboard and a simple leather-bound ledger.00:04:30um,00:04:31In parallel, Luma worked diligently to craft a,00:04:36to scribe a scroll of the locate object spell,00:04:41which would enable Rhys to take the lead in its casting.00:04:45being the only person who’s seen the ledger now.00:04:50Temerity’s Dragoon training continued on. She’s about seven days, I think, into it.00:04:57She has done six days of Dragoon training so far.
Temerity
00:04:57Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:05:03on this, uh, on one of the days she was approached, uh, by Emeric Vael, who, uh,00:05:09confessed to having underestimated her capabilities.00:05:14Um,
Temerity
00:05:14Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:05:16And that, I believe, is all that I’m going to recap.00:05:19Whether or not it’s all that happened that’s important, I don’t know.00:05:23But we begin the morning of the seventh of night deep.00:05:28um,00:05:30with you all having completed yet another00:05:33Uh-oh.00:05:34long rest.00:05:35uh,00:05:36risks having just had this vision.
Rhysaene
00:05:42But.00:05:43Oh, good.
Temerity
00:05:43Hehehe.
Dungeon Master
00:05:43Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:05:47uh,00:05:49That’s all.00:05:51Wake up and…00:05:53She’ll feel a little…00:05:55groggy, a little00:05:57Uh…00:05:58A little…00:06:01Dishevel, but you’ll, like…00:06:04remove some, like, her hair out of her hair.00:06:07her face until like00:06:097.00:06:10look around and see if anyone’s up.
Luma
00:06:18Luma is in the living room.00:06:21with Beepo wearing matching pajama sets, each with their own tub of ice cream.00:06:26reading a book.
Rhysaene
00:06:27Bye.
Temerity
00:06:28Hehehehehehe.
Luma
00:06:29She’s going to speed run the Depression Era.
Rhysaene
00:06:31Oh.00:06:34So,00:06:35- Sure, go over to Luma.00:06:39Bye.
Luma
00:06:40Good morning.
Rhysaene
00:06:41Morning.
Luma
00:06:43You’re up really early.
Rhysaene
00:06:44Yeah.00:06:45Yeah, you could say that.00:06:47Um,00:06:50At.00:06:51I did.00:06:52I found out00:06:54uh,00:06:55I think I got00:06:57enough of a clue that00:06:58Look for that ledger.
Luma
00:07:00Oh, really?
Rhysaene
00:07:01Yeah.
Luma
00:07:02I finished the ritual.00:07:04We could use it anytime.
Rhysaene
00:07:06Yeah.00:07:07You want me to take the link?
Luma
00:07:10Yeah, because you’re the only one who knows what the ledger looks like, so you have to
Rhysaene
00:07:13Yeah.
Luma
00:07:14You’ve got to be the
Rhysaene
00:07:14Okay.
Luma
00:07:15The main actor.
Rhysaene
00:07:16Yeah, it was in a, well, funny you say that.00:07:20I think it’s in a theater or some kind.
Luma
00:07:23Oh.00:07:24good.
Rhysaene
00:07:25Mm-hmm.00:07:27Yeah, thank you.
Luma
00:07:27Wait, do you already know where it is? Do we even need to use Ritual?
Rhysaene
00:07:30No, I will.00:07:32I don’t.00:07:33Not an exact location, which you’re probably, yeah.
Luma
00:07:35Oh, okay.00:07:37Well,00:07:38if only you00:07:40casts a spell.00:07:41Um,00:07:42You’ll be able to detect it if it’s within a thousand feet of you.
Rhysaene
00:07:43Mmh.
Luma
00:07:45For every extra person, I think I can…00:07:48uh,00:07:49double that distance or like, you know, add another thousand.
Rhysaene
00:07:51Okay.
Luma
00:07:52So.
Rhysaene
00:07:52Right.
Luma
00:07:53If you, me, and if we could convince Hazel to help out,00:07:57We get 3,000 feet.00:07:58which,
Rhysaene
00:07:58Okay.
Luma
00:07:59If we do it here in your living room, that’s almost the entire city.
Rhysaene
00:08:03Mm-hmm.00:08:05- Okay, then let’s try.
Dungeon Master
00:08:05I don’t know.00:08:07I will point out00:08:09that the only person in this party who has experience doing group magic is Hazel.00:08:19That is not a…
Luma
00:08:19Good point.00:08:21Yeah.00:08:21I should clarify, Luma did watch one group of people do it once.
Dungeon Master
00:08:21- Yeah.
Luma
00:08:25It’s like, I could probably mimic that.00:08:26She has no fucking idea what she’s doing.00:08:28So the convincing Hazel is like, we probably need Hazel to tell us how to do this.
Rhysaene
00:08:31Yeah.
Temerity
00:08:32Hehehehe.
Luma
00:08:34- Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:08:35Should we go and make Haze a look?
Luma
00:08:37Yeah, probably. I don’t want to explode your house by accident.
Temerity
00:08:41Hehehehe.
Rhysaene
00:08:42- Yeah.00:08:44After this week, I don’t think.00:08:46I don’t think it would be too much.00:08:50Hey, are you eating ice cream?
Luma
00:08:52Yeah.00:08:56They say it helps with being fired.
Rhysaene
00:08:57Thanks.
Luma
00:08:58I think it does.
Rhysaene
00:09:00I don’t…
Hazel
00:09:00Hee hee!
Rhysaene
00:09:01I don’t think people usually…00:09:03Ascribe it to get…00:09:05Oh,00:09:06Oh, OK.
Luma
00:09:09Oh yeah, I’m,00:09:10Nevermind. I’m not going to say that.
Rhysaene
00:09:14No, come on.
Luma
00:09:16No, you’re going to judge me.
Rhysaene
00:09:18church.
Luma
00:09:21I mixed whiskey into the ice cream.
Rhysaene
00:09:24Whiskey?
Luma
00:09:25Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:09:26Okay, I fucking like you.
Luma
00:09:28Mm-hmm.
Hazel
00:09:29.
Temerity
00:09:29laughter
Luma
00:09:29Thank you.
Hazel
00:09:30You’re just realizing this now?
Rhysaene
00:09:31Thank you.
Hazel
00:09:32Oh.
Rhysaene
00:09:33I don’t know.
Luma
00:09:33- Yeah.00:09:34Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:09:34I don’t know.
Hazel
00:09:35I didn’t really fuck with you before, Luma.
Luma
00:09:37That’s it.
Hazel
00:09:38Yeah.
Luma
00:09:39Yeah.
Hazel
00:09:39in these like three weeks you’ve known each other.
Luma
00:09:39Okay.00:09:41to me.
Rhysaene
00:09:42Now what?
Temerity
00:09:42you
Rhysaene
00:09:43No, I just wanted to do a farm.
Luma
00:09:46I didn’t put any Ed Beepo’s ice cream, though, because I’m not exactly sure how old Beepo is.
Hazel
00:09:46uh,
Rhysaene
00:09:51I don’t know.
Luma
00:09:52I guess technically three days old,
Hazel
00:09:52Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:09:52Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:09:54She kind of looks over the fucking,
Hazel
00:09:54to try.
Dungeon Master
00:09:54I,
Rhysaene
00:09:57Creature.
Luma
00:09:58Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:09:58And she’s like, I don’t know.00:09:59No, if Beepo could get drunk.
Luma
00:10:02People wave a tiny spoon.
Dungeon Master
00:10:03I,
Luma
00:10:04BAKA!
Dungeon Master
00:10:04I,
Rhysaene
00:10:04Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:10:05We’ll point out one other thing before you guys commit to casting locate object now.
Rhysaene
00:10:11- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:10:11The locate object spell has a range of 1000 feet.00:10:14which can obviously be augmented if Hazel is able to teach you how to share the burden of casting the spell.00:10:21It has a…
Rhysaene
00:10:22Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:10:2310 minute duration with concentration.00:10:26Um,00:10:27It only tells you the direction of the object, not anything else.
Hazel
00:10:32Ender Pearl.
Dungeon Master
00:10:32And if it’s00:10:33and if it’s moving.00:10:35It does not tell you where it is or how far it is, just the direction.
Hazel
00:10:35it.
Dungeon Master
00:10:40But it does last 10 minutes.
Luma
00:10:41Oh.
Dungeon Master
00:10:44And if so, so just bearing those in mind before you commit resources to casting it now.
Rhysaene
00:10:49- Right, okay.00:10:51Yeah.00:10:52Okay.00:10:58How?00:10:59Then I do have a question, man.00:11:01How long is it, like, how long of a walk is it from one end of the city to the other?00:11:06Like, yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:11:08Um,00:11:12It’s…00:11:15from one end of the city to the other.00:11:17I can’t zoom this map out far enough00:11:19to actually do this correctly.
Rhysaene
00:11:19Mm-hmm.00:11:21Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:11:21It depends, it depends ’cause the city is not uniform.
Rhysaene
00:11:25Right.
Dungeon Master
00:11:26It is…00:11:29It is…
Luma
00:11:29Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:11:30A little over 10 minutes.00:11:33but probably not quite 20 minutes, depending on…00:11:37where you go, however,00:11:40The city’s like…00:11:41like 4,000 feet across, essentially.00:11:45um,
Rhysaene
00:11:46Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:11:47You don’t have to, like, you don’t necessarily have to walk the whole city.00:11:52you would presumably, like…00:11:57I’m not gonna be able to do the geometry.00:12:00I’ve never been good at spatial relationships.
Rhysaene
00:12:02- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:12:03The city is like 4,000 feet across from gate to gate.
Rhysaene
00:12:09Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:12:09Um,00:12:10Which is like…00:12:12a little under a 20 minute walk.
Luma
00:12:17Yeah, it would be a 20 minute
Hazel
00:12:17We could always…
Luma
00:12:19walk if it was straight across, but we would have to walk through the center of town, which
Dungeon Master
00:12:22There are.00:12:23There is that.
Luma
00:12:23requires crossing the bridges, and that’s kind of a headache.
Dungeon Master
00:12:24You, you, you,00:12:26Yeah, going through the center of town would require crossing bridges, it would require smuggling hazel.
Luma
00:12:32Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:12:32Um,
Luma
00:12:34Ooh.
Dungeon Master
00:12:34So there’s also that.
Hazel
00:12:37We only have one screen.
Rhysaene
00:12:37Right, yeah.
Hazel
00:12:38actually in mind.
Luma
00:12:38Can Hazel fly yet?
Hazel
00:12:40No.00:12:42Unfortunately,
Luma
00:12:42talk.00:12:43I just had the mental image of Hazel turning into a bird,00:12:46carrying a bag of holding with a wrist inside,00:12:49Blitzing across the city.
Hazel
00:12:49Mm-hmm.00:12:53And it’s a sh*t.
Luma
00:12:53to figure out where the fuck this theater is.
Dungeon Master
00:12:53Oh, God.00:12:55I will point out if…
Hazel
00:12:55Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:12:58I need to look up. I don’t remember exactly how Circle Magic works.00:13:01Assuming you increase the range to 3,000 feet with two extra casters,00:13:06you cover a massive chunk of the city just on initial casting.
Rhysaene
00:13:10Yeah.
Luma
00:13:11Yeah.00:13:12The problem is only Rhys knows what the ledger looks like.
Dungeon Master
00:13:17Yes.
Luma
00:13:17because if Luma or Hazel knew what the ledger looks like,00:13:21we could just regular cast locate objects when we got close enough.
Rhysaene
00:13:21Mm-hmm.00:13:25- Right, okay.
Luma
00:13:26But every attempt costs us like 100 gold if Rhys is doing it.
Rhysaene
00:13:26Um…
Hazel
00:13:26a triangle.
Rhysaene
00:13:31Yeah.
Luma
00:13:31So, however,
Rhysaene
00:13:32- How’s it?
Luma
00:13:34It’s a theater. We know it’s in a theater, right? You said that?
Rhysaene
00:13:36Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:13:36Yes.
Luma
00:13:37So,00:13:38We could cast it here, figure out the direction, maybe try it.00:13:41If it’s close enough, maybe run to it.00:13:42If not…00:13:43figure out where it is, directionally00:13:45speaking, and then look up00:13:47what theaters are in that direction.
Rhysaene
00:13:49Mm-hmm.
Luma
00:13:50At the very least, we can get the building.
Hazel
00:13:50draw a line in it.00:13:51everything.
Luma
00:13:52Because you know where it is in the building, relatively speaking.
Rhysaene
00:13:55Yeah.
Luma
00:13:56you saw it in your vision.00:13:57So you,00:13:57this is out of character,00:13:58but you saw it in your vision.00:13:59You should be able to like,00:14:00you know,
Rhysaene
00:14:00Mm-hmm.
Luma

Dungeon Master
00:14:02Um,
Rhysaene
00:14:07Uh,00:14:10Oh, Rhys will also be like, I don’t know…00:14:14but it kind of looked kind of simple.00:14:16just,00:14:17- Neither bound, strapped.
Dungeon Master
00:14:20Fuck.
Rhysaene
00:14:20Oh.00:14:22kind of shut
Luma
00:14:24Did you?00:14:25Did you expect it to have like00:14:27ledger and bold gold leaf on the outside or something.
Rhysaene
00:14:29Now.
Hazel
00:14:30Isn’t it?
Rhysaene
00:14:30No, I just thought it would have some kind of…
Luma
00:14:32Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:14:36Something, something.
Iva
00:14:37I thought it’d look cooler.
Luma
00:14:39- Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:14:40- Yeah.00:14:42Thank you. Do some Bobby Paul.
Iva
00:14:42Someone tried to murder me over it and it’s not even cool looking.
Luma
00:14:44Well, if we…00:14:46If we find it, I can rebind it in a cooler binding for you.
Rhysaene
00:14:50No.
Luma
00:14:51It’ll make it look all super cool.
Dungeon Master
00:14:54Uh,
Rhysaene
00:14:55It’s me, champion of the letter.
Luma
00:14:58Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:15:01So,00:15:02So, so,00:15:05So you guys were waking Hazel up?
Rhysaene
00:15:08Mm-hmm.
Luma
00:15:10Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:15:11Yes.
Hazel
00:15:14Basil.00:15:16is00:15:18at the foot of Rhys’s bed, just like00:15:22laying directly on top of Sage as they’re both like knocked out.00:15:26But.00:15:27Yes, hello.
Rhysaene
00:15:29Bye.00:15:30Found the ledger.
Hazel
00:15:33Oh.
Rhysaene
00:15:33Oh, man.00:15:34map.00:15:35Queen.00:15:36I know what that looks like.
Hazel

Rhysaene
00:15:42Mm.00:15:43Can you help us find this thing?
Hazel
00:15:49I, I, I,00:15:50Yeah, I can try.
Rhysaene
00:15:53“Oh, we gotta need you in like a group.”
Hazel
00:15:56Yeah, yeah, yeah.00:15:57uh,00:16:04I can show you guys how to…00:16:08uh,00:16:09how to cast like witches do.
Luma
00:16:14Luma runs off and comes back with her hat.00:16:16Okay.
Hazel
00:16:17Hey.
Rhysaene
00:16:17Oh.00:16:18I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
00:16:19Thank you.
Hazel
00:16:20Very important.
Iva
00:16:21I love the idea of
Rhysaene
00:16:21I guess we should get00:16:23Everyone else.
Iva
00:16:24I love the idea Iva’s just sleeping on the couch.00:16:27still unconscious.
Hazel
00:16:28Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
00:16:29She has a blanket.00:16:30Over her.00:16:31Because the rest of the world is more hot.
Iva
00:16:32- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:16:33Also,
Iva
00:16:33Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:16:34I just want to interrupt for something that doesn’t remotely matter at all, but due to Aelissus’ constant complaining, the area around Rhys’s house is now high resolution.
Luma
00:16:44Yay.
Hazel
00:16:45Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Rhysaene
00:16:45Yeah.
Luma
00:16:45I complained once, and I made it fucking high-res.
Rhysaene
00:16:47-
Luma
00:16:47Let’s go.
Iva
00:16:49I mean, you can play twice.
Rhysaene
00:16:49- Yeah.
Luma
00:16:50- Hi.
Rhysaene
00:16:52Oh, my God.
Hazel
00:16:52It’s the.
Luma
00:16:52What? What do you mean?
Rhysaene
00:16:53Oh, wow.
Hazel
00:16:53Thank you.
Iva
00:16:53It was twice…
Rhysaene
00:16:56I guess after being assassinated, the house needed a team of help.
Dungeon Master
00:16:59Yeah.
Hazel
00:16:59Thank you.
Luma
00:17:00you got an upgrade
Temerity
00:17:01He he he he he he.
Hazel
00:17:03Yeah, yeah.00:17:04I wouldn’t see it as complaining.00:17:06It’s…
Luma
00:17:09What’s it like having a high-res house? My apartment isn’t high-res. That’s complaining.
Dungeon Master
00:17:12Your apartment has been high res.
Temerity
00:17:13Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
Dungeon Master
00:17:15like the whole time it’s existed.
Luma
00:17:15Mm-hmm.00:17:17What do you mean?00:17:18I can’t find my apartment.
Dungeon Master
00:17:18I mean,
Luma
00:17:19Where the fuck’s my apartment?
Dungeon Master
00:17:20It’s.00:17:21So…
Luma
00:17:21Um,
Dungeon Master
00:17:22over, it’s where, it’s where the, it’s where your doppelgangers are all hanging out apparently.
Luma
00:17:26Oh, there it is. Oh yeah, there’s a second set of…
Dungeon Master
00:17:30actually.
Luma
00:17:30Just funny because Beepo’s over there.
Dungeon Master
00:17:31Don’t worry.00:17:32Don’t worry about why that is.
Luma
00:17:32We have it.
Dungeon Master
00:17:33Don’t ask any questions about that.
Luma
00:17:34We haven’t been over there with Beko yet, which means that was recent.
Iva
00:17:35what you did it
Temerity
00:17:37Yeah.
Iva
00:17:39What you didn’t know is that iVUDS reproduced by…
Temerity
00:17:39I’ll see you next time.
Luma
00:17:39Yeah.
Iva
00:17:42polyps.
Dungeon Master
00:17:44Oops.
Iva
00:17:45laughs
Luma
00:17:45That reminds me, I do need to make Luma’s apartment in a map. Look.
Temerity
00:17:46I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
00:17:52So you were getting everyone else up?
Rhysaene
00:17:55Yeah.
Hazel
00:17:57Hazel.00:17:58Uh.00:18:00Hazel runs into the kitchen and grabs a pan.00:18:03Bang, bang, bang.
Dungeon Master
00:18:04- Thank you.
Temerity
00:18:05Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Hazel
00:18:05Wake up.00:18:08No sleeping on the job, I vote.
Iva
00:18:09Yeah.00:18:10Iva slowly wakes up and goes, it’s so loud.
Hazel
00:18:15Did Temerity room with us, or is…
Temerity
00:18:15It’s in…
Hazel
00:18:19Are they at the…
Temerity
00:18:19uh,
Iva
00:18:19sheet.
Hazel
00:18:19Right there back in the barracks.
Temerity
00:18:21Temerity probably roomed there, but also probably left early to go back.00:18:25back to the00:18:26barracks for their job.
Iva
00:18:28Only one place you can check. You have to look in the closet.
Hazel
00:18:32Thank you.
Temerity
00:18:32I just…00:18:35True.00:18:35But if this is after, like…00:18:39If this is after like 6 a.m., then Temerity’s in the barracks.
Hazel
00:18:47Damn.00:18:48Goddamn!
Temerity
00:18:48The marriage day starts early and also typically ends early.
Dungeon Master
00:18:53True.
Hazel
00:18:54All right, Temerity.00:18:55Well, actually, it’s probably a good thing you’re not present for this.00:18:58Right.
Temerity
00:18:58Yeah.
Iva
00:18:59Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:19:00Mm-hmm.
Hazel
00:19:05- -00:19:10being com00:19:11Legally honest, uh…00:19:17I’m not super familiar with the, uh,00:19:23with this specific00:19:26is00:19:27style of casting. I’ve never had to00:19:30I’ve always been the one who was…00:19:32like taught, I never had to teach someone how to do it.00:19:36Um,00:19:36So I might be a little rusty.
Rhysaene
00:19:39That’s fun.
Luma
00:19:41OK, I’m a quick learner.
Hazel
00:19:43Yes, yes.
Rhysaene
00:19:44out.00:19:44Are there any risks to doing this?
Hazel
00:19:48um,00:19:52with00:19:53Yes, the spell could backfire and we could all turn into goo.00:19:57you know,00:19:58from00:20:00What I understand,00:20:02the00:20:03The I’ve never been, I’ve never been warned of any real risks.00:20:10I don’t think.
Rhysaene
00:20:13Okay.
Hazel
00:20:14Mm-hmm.
Luma
00:20:15Luma flips the spell parchment over and says, do not turn us into the…00:20:20text of it.
Hazel
00:20:20He he he he he he!
Rhysaene
00:20:21Oh.
Hazel
00:20:23The entire spell changes. It’s now a spell of like, six of snakes.
Luma
00:20:25I’ll see you next time.00:20:27And.
Rhysaene
00:20:27someone that’s
Luma
00:20:28Yeah.
Iva
00:20:28-
Rhysaene
00:20:28summon00:20:29greater demon.
Hazel
00:20:31Hee hee hee hee.
Temerity
00:20:32Mm-hmm.
Luma
00:20:33Like, the front page of the spell is super official, like, arcane writing and…00:20:38ritual diagram and shit that she00:20:40constructed from watching the00:20:43the one ritual we did, and the back is just a whole bunch of disclaimers.
Temerity
00:20:47Hehehehe.
Hazel
00:20:47Hehehehe.
Luma
00:20:47Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:20:47Oh.
Luma
00:20:49It doesn’t explode. It doesn’t turn us into goo.00:20:51It’s just a list of all the problems you could think of.
Hazel
00:20:55Yeah.
Temerity
00:20:55Uh.
Luma
00:20:55Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:20:56And you got it.
Iva
00:20:56I was sitting here thinking how she’s gonna cast a spell to help her, how she’s gonna help cast a spell.
Luma
00:20:57I had.
Temerity
00:21:03He he he.
Dungeon Master
00:21:04You can’t.
Temerity
00:21:05giving her life essence.
Dungeon Master
00:21:07True. Sacrifice. Sacrifice.
Luma
00:21:09Mm-hmm.
Temerity
00:21:09Hehehehe.
Dungeon Master
00:21:10Um,00:21:10So you guys are having Rhys cast the spell now from the scroll, and you guys are…00:21:16are augmenting it, specifically the distance.00:21:21Is that what’s happening?
Rhysaene
00:21:23Hot.
Luma
00:21:24Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:21:24Do you want to wait until…00:21:25Oh, is Temerity here?
Dungeon Master
00:21:27Nope.
Temerity
00:21:27No.
Rhysaene
00:21:28Okay.00:21:30Should we wait until Temerity gets here?
Hazel
00:21:32I think…00:21:35This is one of those things where Temerity will be glad that they are not here.
Temerity
00:21:40Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:21:41That’s all.00:21:43- Yes.00:21:44Okay, that’s fair.
Dungeon Master
00:21:46uh,00:21:48risks you have this arcane scroll in front of you, essentially a blueprint00:21:55for how to cast a particular spell00:21:57that you’ve never cast before.00:21:59Contained within the scroll is also the reserve magical energy to enact the spell.00:22:03It doesn’t consume a spell slot or anything like that.00:22:06and you begin to00:22:08cast the spell, and as you do,00:22:11Luma and Hazel both00:22:13knowing spells that do similar things begin to…00:22:17join you in the casting, mirroring your somatic and verbal components as the scroll begins to00:22:24Uh,00:22:25the ink,00:22:27uh,00:22:29soaked into the scroll begins to like vibrate. The scroll itself00:22:36bursts into flames.00:22:39deep crimson00:22:41um00:22:43Eldritch.00:22:44hot flames.00:22:47rip the scroll apart00:22:48um,00:22:49and it vanishes from your hands.00:22:51Um,00:22:53but left hanging in the air, quivering,00:22:56these words and diagrams in00:22:58liquid ink00:23:00Yeah.00:23:01kind of pulsing in the air.00:23:02And as you finish the spell,00:23:03they schlorp together into a ball.00:23:07And then.00:23:08Uh,00:23:09like pulse and undulate and become a big old,00:23:14arrow.00:23:16made of ink.00:23:18that kind of just like spins in the air and then begins pointing.
Luma
00:23:23Take a little arrow.
Hazel
00:23:23- Oh.00:23:24Okay.
Rhysaene
00:23:25Oh!
Dungeon Master
00:23:25a gold arrow.
Rhysaene
00:23:27Oh, I think it00:23:28X point somewhere.
Dungeon Master
00:23:28Not that big.00:23:30It’s like…00:23:32It’s big for, like, it’s like a foot-long arrow, but…00:23:37the drawing one is going to be bigger because I,00:23:39need to make sure people can see it.
Luma
00:23:40Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:23:42but you are now holding above your hand00:23:44Um,00:23:45this arrow.00:23:47made of ink.00:23:49The rest of you cannot see it.00:23:52Only Rhys is able to see it.
Luma
00:23:52and caught it.
Hazel
00:23:54Hey,
Rhysaene
00:23:54Oh.
Hazel
00:23:56Hazel just kind of like--00:23:57tilts her head and goes, huh, I guess it didn’t work.00:24:00Well, sorry.
Rhysaene
00:24:01No, it works.00:24:02I see it.00:24:03in my hand of you.
Hazel
00:24:03Oh.00:24:07laughs
Rhysaene
00:24:08I don’t know.
Luma
00:24:08It’s stealth mode so we can follow it without getting caught.
Hazel
00:24:08Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:24:11Um,
Rhysaene
00:24:11Yeah.
Hazel
00:24:11Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:24:12Hazel and Luma,00:24:14you can kind of both, like, if you focus, you can kind of, like…00:24:18glean that there is some kind of magic there,00:24:21your connection to the casting of the spell,00:24:24but you’re not able to, like, see it well enough to…00:24:29to determine where it’s pointing, and when you aren’t focusing, you can’t perceive it at all.00:24:33Iva, there’s nothing there.
Iva
00:24:35Yeah, I was like, that’s a pretty hand.
Hazel
00:24:38Well,00:24:39for
Rhysaene
00:24:39Thank you.00:24:40Just, there’s something.
Iva
00:24:40Thank you.00:24:43I was like, why is it so fucking dark in here?00:24:45I didn’t turn the light on.
Hazel
00:24:46- Thank you.
Iva
00:24:46Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:24:47And that might be why.
Hazel
00:24:47Mm-hmm.
Iva
00:24:48Thank you.
Hazel
00:24:49Good work, everyone. We did not…00:24:51He did not turn into goo nor turn all into sorrows one.
Rhysaene
00:24:56We didn’t explode.
Hazel
00:24:57What?
Luma
00:24:57Yay.
Iva
00:24:59Iva goes, I did my best.
Luma
00:25:01Thank you.00:25:02like wipes your brow like oh that was close
Hazel
00:25:04-00:25:05Are we just gaslighting00:25:08the gaslighting
Rhysaene
00:25:09Thank you.
Hazel
00:25:09iPhone to like, yeah, yeah, you did it.00:25:12Good job.
Dungeon Master
00:25:12like
Luma
00:25:12Mm-hmm.
Iva
00:25:12Yeah.
Hazel
00:25:13We’re going to put this girl on the fridge.
Iva
00:25:14I’ve been there.00:25:16Yeah, I was there the whole time
Rhysaene
00:25:16- Yeah.
Luma
00:25:16Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:25:17Yes.
Iva
00:25:18with the circle holding her hands out like she’s doing magic.
Luma
00:25:21Yeah.
Iva
00:25:22laughs
Rhysaene
00:25:23Hey, Abba, what did you get to eat?
Iva
00:25:23Bye.00:25:28What?
Rhysaene
00:25:30What did you get to eat?00:25:34Have you had anything?
Iva
00:25:35No, I woke up and helped you with your ritual.
Rhysaene
00:25:40He’s succeeded.
Luma
00:25:41Not to rush anybody, but we do have 10 minutes left.
Rhysaene
00:25:44Yeah, okay, let’s go.
Dungeon Master
00:25:47Where are you going?
Rhysaene
00:25:47- Yeah.00:25:49in the direction of the arrow.
Luma
00:25:50I don’t know.00:25:51I know that I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
00:25:52The direction, if you follow the arrow directly, it takes you through a couple houses, and then you hit the edge of the moat.00:25:58You get to…
Iva
00:25:58I think we should go through the houses.
Rhysaene
00:25:58laughs
Luma
00:25:58For sure.
Rhysaene
00:25:59- Oh.
Luma
00:26:00We should probably go like this. Wait, no, that’s the drawing. Wrong tool.00:26:04Like,00:26:07that.00:26:09that way.
Iva
00:26:11Lame route doesn’t go through any houses.
Dungeon Master
00:26:14If that is the route you take,
Luma
00:26:16You know…
Dungeon Master
00:26:17uh,00:26:18I’m just going to move the arrow.00:26:20The arrows start slowly…00:26:22slowly, like the arrow is pointing the same place.00:26:25Um,00:26:26so it’s rotating slowly as you move.00:26:30Um,00:26:32So it would,
Luma
00:26:32Where is it pointing when we reach the bridge here?
Dungeon Master
00:26:35where when you reach the bridge,00:26:38The arrow is very slightly more00:26:43Uh,00:26:44more east-west.00:26:46Maybe like that.
Luma
00:26:48in00:26:49Okay.00:26:52East West so.
Dungeon Master
00:26:52I don’t know.
Luma
00:26:55So far, it’s00:26:56that way.00:26:59Okay.00:27:00Yeah, I guess we’ll just follow the canal, see where it takes us.
Dungeon Master
00:27:02Follow the canal.00:27:05you would probably make a particular note of when it gets00:27:11Here.00:27:14Because at this point,00:27:20Where is this?00:27:23below.00:27:24At this point, it would be pointing due east.
Luma
00:27:27Oh.00:27:28Okay, then we gotta go back up and cross the bridge.
Rhysaene
00:27:31Okay.
Luma
00:27:32Oh, no.00:27:36Yeah, I guess Luma will take her hat off for Hazel.
Dungeon Master
00:27:41Um,
Luma
00:27:41We got to hit an alley on the way back.
Dungeon Master
00:27:44You can give me an intelligence check, anyone who would like to.
Rhysaene
00:27:52I’ll do it.
Iva
00:27:53Yeah, sure. I like rolling the intelligence truck.
Rhysaene
00:27:53I’ll do one.
Luma
00:27:53I guess it might be
Rhysaene
00:27:55thousands
Luma
00:27:56Actually, it might be a better idea to keep following the canal to see if it’s00:28:00over on the far side of the town.
Rhysaene
00:28:02Mmh.00:28:03Okay.
Hazel
00:28:04- Thank you.
Luma
00:28:04Intelligence is 15.
Hazel
00:28:04I think that’s a good idea.00:28:08But…
Dungeon Master
00:28:08Um,00:28:09If you keep following the canal, you do not have to.
Iva
00:28:09I rolled up.
Dungeon Master
00:28:13The 15s.
Iva
00:28:13I rolled a natural 20.
Dungeon Master
00:28:15The 15th is for sure going to do it if you keep following the canal.00:28:17When you get down here…
Hazel
00:28:18Yes.
Dungeon Master
00:28:21It is no longer pointing east.00:28:24It is pointing due north.
Luma
00:28:26Yeah, yeah, okay.
Rhysaene
00:28:27- Okay.
Luma
00:28:27So that’s…
Dungeon Master
00:28:29Um.
Luma
00:28:29It’s somewhere…
Dungeon Master
00:28:31with your intelligence checks being what they are,00:28:35It was already, the arrow was turning fast enough,00:28:37you figure it had to be close.00:28:39Based on that, yeah, that’s a pretty good estimate00:28:43of the area of the city it’s in.00:28:45It was not…00:28:47Even without the circle casting, it was within the 1,000 feet, but only just barely.
Luma
00:28:51Wow.00:28:53That’s funny.00:28:54So it’s going to be somewhere in that district then.
Rhysaene
00:28:54- Yeah.
Luma
00:28:56Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:28:56Let me actually…
Rhysaene
00:28:57Yeah.
Luma
00:28:59That’s actually really good because from your…
Dungeon Master
00:29:00look at it.
Luma
00:29:04house to down here, we have a triangulation.00:29:06We might actually be able to use a map00:29:09Wait, whoa, we have a map.00:29:11If Cat puts the marker pointing directly through it,00:29:14we can draw a line through this one00:29:17and then draw a line through00:29:19of direction it was facing over here, and wherever they intersect,00:29:25is the building.
Iva
00:29:26Hey, Kat, would Iva know with her nat 20 of any, uh…
Luma
00:29:29Yes.
Iva
00:29:31theaters in that area.
Dungeon Master
00:29:33You’re not, that wasn’t like,
Luma
00:29:36- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:29:36That was a geometry check.00:29:40There, now they’re both arrows from when they were pointing straight directions.
Luma
00:29:44Okay.
Dungeon Master
00:29:44Get this one out of here.
Hazel
00:29:45It’s underground.
Dungeon Master
00:29:47um,
Hazel
00:29:49I guess basement success.
Luma
00:29:50Oh, it might be this place marked the Footlight Theater.
Dungeon Master
00:29:52Yeah.
Luma
00:29:54Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:29:54- Thank you.
Temerity
00:29:55laughter
Hazel
00:29:55Oh.
Rhysaene
00:29:56- Oh.
Luma
00:29:56I’m just…00:29:57I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
00:29:58Okay.
Luma
00:29:59Just a hunch.
Iva
00:29:59Could…
Dungeon Master
00:30:01Fun fact.
Iva
00:30:01It could be…00:30:02Thank you.
Luma
00:30:03Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:30:03Um,00:30:04was not specifically planned this way,
Luma
00:30:04giggle
Dungeon Master
00:30:06it just happened to work out this way.00:30:09The footlight theater is exactly 940 feet from Rhys’s house, barely in range of locate object, but still tactically in range.
Luma
00:30:16- Ha ha ha ha.
Rhysaene
00:30:20That’s really funny.
Dungeon Master
00:30:22And yeah,00:30:24Just walking around, the speed at which the arrow is turning, you calculate it has to be close.00:30:29The fact that you get it due east at one point00:30:33and like a short while down the road later,00:30:35it’s pointing due north, you do.00:30:38You can calculate exactly where it is.00:30:40And it’s a building over here.00:30:44Right over here.00:30:46which, um,00:30:49I don’t.00:30:50Um, risks, I think you’re the only00:30:53Um…00:30:54Rhys, you would know. Luma, you can roll for it if you would like a history check.00:31:01But you know where it is for sure.
Rhysaene
00:31:02Oh.
Dungeon Master
00:31:03without question.
Rhysaene
00:31:05Hmm.
Luma
00:31:06Oh, if I know the place.
Dungeon Master
00:31:08Yeah.00:31:08Because you worked in the…
Luma
00:31:09Uh…00:31:11913.
Dungeon Master
00:31:14You know there’s a theater in that area.00:31:17the footlight theatre.00:31:20Um, it is, it is, it is, you know it because00:31:24Um,00:31:25Argentum has a couple little theaters in the Hearth Wall district.00:31:30The footlight theater is like the official,
Rhysaene
00:31:30Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:31:33like the,00:31:34um, Synod sponsored00:31:37Center for Performing Arts in the city.00:31:40It is the largest theater.00:31:43It’s the one that gets all the funding.00:31:47Luma, you probably haven’t had a lot of00:31:50like specific interaction beyond that.00:31:52Rhys, you know the theater well.00:31:55Um,
Rhysaene
00:31:55Mm.
Dungeon Master
00:31:56You probably haven’t been there since La Thiel died.00:32:00Um,00:32:01but she would have taken you, um,00:32:04many times while she was alive,00:32:07whether to sit in the audience and enjoy a performance or because she was in the00:32:12the, uh,00:32:14the production herself.
Rhysaene
00:32:15Yeah.00:32:18Huh.00:32:21been a while.
Hazel
00:32:24Oh, you know where it is.
Rhysaene
00:32:25Yeah, Footlap Theater.00:32:31Um,00:32:33Yeah.00:32:35And it’s like still open.00:32:36It’s not like abandoned or anything.
Dungeon Master
00:32:38Yeah, no, it’s still open.00:32:41just haven’t gone.00:32:43Maybe,00:32:44maybe you,00:32:45maybe,00:32:45maybe theater was more of Lathiel’s interest and your,00:32:48uh,00:32:49artistic interests were elsewhere.00:32:50Maybe it was just like,
Rhysaene
00:32:51Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:32:53too many memories, whatever the reason is up to you.00:32:58It’s still there. You could have gone. It’s just not something you’ve done for whatever reason.
Rhysaene
00:33:02Yeah.00:33:03Mm-hmm.00:33:04I think it’s a bit of both.
Dungeon Master
00:33:07I don’t know.
Rhysaene
00:33:08Um,00:33:09So00:33:11I think it’s still open.00:33:16Um…
Hazel
00:33:19or reason to go and see.
Dungeon Master
00:33:19Um,
Rhysaene
00:33:23Oh, sorry, go ahead.
Dungeon Master
00:33:25I was just gonna add one other thing00:33:27that I feel like you would know.00:33:29A lot of the theater’s funding is public funding from the Synod, but it is00:33:35is not publicly owned, it is owned by House Draken.
Rhysaene
00:33:42Huh.00:33:43Okay.
Dungeon Master
00:33:43Um,00:33:44But obviously not Dorian, who you all learned had like kind of divorced himself from the family’s like…
Rhysaene
00:33:51Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:33:52Um,00:33:53theater roots to kind of, um,00:33:56do his own thing and run the dancing sword.
Rhysaene
00:33:59Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:34:05So yeah, that’s what, you’ve deduced where it is, and that…00:34:12that it’s probably that theater.
Rhysaene
00:34:16Okay.00:34:20Bye.00:34:25Yeah, we could.00:34:32Yeah, I think…00:34:34It’s around here.
Dungeon Master
00:34:35Um,00:34:36And while you’re doing this, I would like everyone to give me perception checks.
Hazel
00:34:43- Uh-huh.
Iva
00:34:45Oh, that’s like the opposite.00:34:46This is the last roll I just made.
Rhysaene
00:34:47Oh, boy.
Hazel
00:34:53or the
Rhysaene
00:34:54-
Hazel
00:34:54.
Luma
00:34:57fucking giggling while rolling is always…
Iva
00:34:59No, that’s wrong.
Luma
00:35:00It’s so funny.00:35:03Perception.00:35:0416.
Dungeon Master
00:35:04perception.
Iva
00:35:06It’s much better than what I actually…00:35:08Da da da da.
Luma
00:35:09And
Dungeon Master
00:35:12I don’t know.00:35:13Hazel.00:35:15Hazel, maybe.00:35:16Hazel, yes. Hazel and Luma.00:35:20um,00:35:22It’s hard to tell at first.00:35:25as you leave Rhys’s apartment, make your way down the road.00:35:30But once you kind of get to that south area and start doubling back,00:35:39It becomes clear00:35:40that there is a consistent figure moving through the lake.00:35:46side streets.00:35:47And when you guys turn around and start heading back north, they also turn around and start heading back north.
Rhysaene
00:35:59Oh, shh.
Hazel
00:36:00Hey, you.
Dungeon Master
00:36:00This is all…
Hazel
00:36:02Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:36:03You do that? You…00:36:05All right, so around, uh,00:36:09Where is it?00:36:11Yeah.00:36:13Here, get off that boat, you.
Hazel
00:36:15I’m a pirate.00:36:19Sings
Dungeon Master
00:36:22probably around here.00:36:26We use Dante.00:36:29as you and the group turn around and start heading back north,00:36:33this person, who you kind of like maybe saw just like moving up and down,00:36:37you realize is like…00:36:39they turned when you turned and they are like,00:36:41heading north but, like, along this road.00:36:44as you were on that one.00:36:49So you wanna shout at ’em?00:36:53Uh,00:36:54You shout, “Hey, you!”00:36:56and they take off running.
Iva
00:37:00Well,00:37:01Iva looks to Hazel as if to be like, do we give chase?
Dungeon Master
00:37:05to kick off running.00:37:06this way.
Hazel
00:37:13I mean, we already know where the ledger is.00:37:15So, I mean, I don’t know.00:37:16They were following us.
Rhysaene
00:37:18Same.
Iva
00:37:20Iva starts to chase after them.
Hazel
00:37:22Oh.
Luma
00:37:22Did we say at any point out loud that the theater is where we’re going?
Rhysaene
00:37:22Oh,00:37:27eat.00:37:28Yeah.
Luma
00:37:28OK.00:37:29Yeah, then we got to get them.
Dungeon Master
00:37:32And then I’m going to
Iva
00:37:33No witnesses.
Luma
00:37:34No witnesses.00:37:35That or we got to race to the fucking theater and get it before they do.
Rhysaene
00:37:38Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:37:40Um…00:37:43How loud were you when you were saying that?
Rhysaene
00:37:46Not too loud.
Dungeon Master
00:37:48Is this because
Rhysaene
00:37:48I think if it’s just like close enough to,00:37:51for the others to be surrounding her, basically.
Dungeon Master
00:37:54That’s Rhys.00:37:56Um,00:37:57They were a good, like, almost 100 feet, if not more.00:38:02If you weren’t being loud,00:38:04You…00:38:05Unless there was something fishy going on or they have like the best years in the world. It’s not like the streets are empty right now either. There are plenty of people around.00:38:15It would have been hard00:38:19very hard for them to have heard what you said.00:38:22But that may not matter to you, because, like…00:38:24The second Hazel was like, hey, you, they knew you were talking to them and they took off running.
Rhysaene
00:38:29Oh boy.
Iva
00:38:31And now Iva’s running.
Dungeon Master
00:38:33All right.
Rhysaene
00:38:34Oh.
Dungeon Master
00:38:34I’ve never actually used the D&D chase rules.00:38:40Let’s see what those say.
Hazel
00:38:45Neither have I, because my reaction to you saying that was going to be there are chase rules.
Iva
00:38:49-
Dungeon Master
00:38:49Exactly.00:38:50chases.00:38:52Let’s see what this says. Beginning a chase.00:38:54Any partitioning.00:38:56- Tuh.00:38:56And so we do initiative.00:38:59um
Luma
00:39:02Don’t forget your d4.
Hazel
00:39:04True.
Iva
00:39:05True.
Rhysaene
00:39:05Okay.
Dungeon Master
00:39:06- Thanks.00:39:06Here you get your D4.
Hazel
00:39:07- Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:39:10Uh.00:39:11There’s no Temerity.00:39:15And there’s no beep.
Rhysaene
00:39:16Oh my God.00:39:17Yay.00:39:19Oh my God.
Iva
00:39:23Sounds like Rhys is going fast.
Rhysaene
00:39:25I got really fucking high.00:39:30I got nat 20 plus 1 plus 4 on the T4.
Luma
00:39:36This max roll…
Rhysaene
00:39:36Yeah.00:39:37-
Luma
00:39:38She’s ready.
Iva
00:39:39I felt really good.00:39:40I felt really good about my…
Luma
00:39:42- Thank you.
Iva
00:39:4214 and 4.
Rhysaene
00:39:42Wow.00:39:43Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:39:44What?
Rhysaene
00:39:45Oh my god.
Dungeon Master
00:39:45You know what?00:39:46Well, did you get risks?00:39:47- Hello.
Rhysaene
00:39:4725!
Dungeon Master
00:39:50Uh,00:39:52Iva, total?
Iva
00:39:5418.
Dungeon Master
00:39:56Hazeltotal.
Hazel
00:39:5720.
Dungeon Master
00:39:59Luma total.
Luma
00:40:0110.
Dungeon Master
00:40:11um,00:40:13Let’s see, let’s have a look at the map.
Rhysaene
00:40:21Oh my God, Parai, you rolled really fucking high too.
Hazel
00:40:27Mm-hmm.00:40:28I rolled a 15.
Rhysaene
00:40:31No!
Hazel
00:40:32Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:40:32Um,00:40:34Sorry, I’ve never done a chase before.00:40:36I’m trying to figure out how this works.00:40:40- Uh-uh.00:40:42Okay, we go into initiatives.00:40:45Um,00:40:49Participants in the chase are strongly motivated to take the dash action every round.00:40:53Pursuers who stop to cast spells and make attack rolls…00:40:57Run the risk of losing their quarry.00:41:00Uh-oh.00:41:01Dashing, you can take a number of dash actions equal to three plus your con mod.00:41:07After that, you risk exhaustion.00:41:11You can cast spells, although that’s incredibly dangerous, and make attacks.00:41:18No opportunity attacks.
Luma
00:41:20Mm-hmm.00:41:25Oh man, I have the funniest thing that I can fucking do.
Rhysaene
00:41:29- Bye.
Dungeon Master
00:41:33Either side gives up the…00:41:36soon.00:41:37So they’re basically going to be trying to
Luma
00:41:37on.
Dungeon Master
00:41:40stealth out of it.
Luma
00:41:43Oops.
Dungeon Master
00:41:44Groans
Luma
00:41:44uh,00:41:46Cooler.
Dungeon Master
00:41:47Each participant in the chase rolls at d12 at the end of its turn. Okay.00:41:52So up first is Rhys. You can take the dash action. You can basically do a turn.
Rhysaene
00:41:59Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:42:00complications uh it is also worth pointing out there are people all around here doing any kind
Rhysaene
00:42:05Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:42:05of magic is basically basically doing pretty much any magic or any attacking is gonna draw a lot of00:42:13attention really fast this is already drawing a lot of attention
Luma
00:42:16Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:42:18Okay, oh boy. I guess I’ll take the dash action.00:42:23I have…00:42:2580 feet of movement on a dash action.
Dungeon Master
00:42:28Yeah, so you can move yourself 80 feet.
Rhysaene
00:42:32Nyoom!
Luma
00:42:32Zoomen.
Dungeon Master
00:42:35and00:42:38Oh, right. You can’t move yourself.
Luma
00:42:40I should have climbed on the wrist’s back.
Dungeon Master
00:42:40Um,00:42:43I can review 80 feet.00:42:44True.
Rhysaene
00:42:45Aww.
Dungeon Master
00:42:4780 feet puts you00:42:51here.00:42:57you are after dash after dashing 80 feet,00:43:00you are 65 feet from the stranger and 90 feet from the closest party member.00:43:06Um,00:43:08I will grab you a00:43:11A quick screenshot.00:43:12um,00:43:20Do you have any bonus actions you would like to do or is that all?
Rhysaene
00:43:23I think that’s me.00:43:27Yeah, that’s me for now.
Dungeon Master
00:43:29Dead boy.00:43:32Next up is Hazel.
Hazel
00:43:35I’m going to dash.
Dungeon Master
00:43:38Go for it.
Hazel
00:43:38Shedding the feet.
Dungeon Master
00:43:43dash after them.00:43:49- Uh.
Hazel
00:43:51I get Sage to00:43:56I think.00:43:56Can I get to sage token, perhaps?
Dungeon Master
00:43:59Ah.00:44:01I can…00:44:02get it out of Rhys’s house without zooming in.00:44:08Yeah.00:44:09sage token.
Hazel
00:44:11So where Hazel is right now is where it is.00:44:15Sage would have been.
Dungeon Master
00:44:16Okay.
Hazel
00:44:17uh,00:44:20So like,00:44:21here.00:44:22I think.00:44:23Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:44:25Uh,00:44:26I made a small error.00:44:29Before we continue your turn, Aev, I need you to roll a d12.
Rhysaene
00:44:35- Oh, okay.00:44:37Uh, four.
Dungeon Master
00:44:39for00:44:40um,00:44:41As you’re like darting after…00:44:44um,00:44:45after this guy00:44:47you hit a puddle00:44:50Um,00:44:51of00:44:52of, uh,00:44:54frozen water still left out on the ground from the night before. There are not currently any00:44:59lava lamps in this area warming it to the degree that the inner city was warmed, and I need you to
Rhysaene
00:45:02Ooh.
Dungeon Master
00:45:05make a DC-10 dexterity saving throw.
Rhysaene
00:45:08Okay.00:45:10Okay, that’s a five.
Dungeon Master
00:45:13You hit the end of your 80 feet and you slip and fall on your horse butt.00:45:20you are prone.00:45:23as you hit this patch of ice.
Rhysaene
00:45:26- Ooh!
Hazel
00:45:29- Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:45:32Hazel, continue with your turn, sorry.00:45:34You see wrist slip and fall as you…00:45:38As you run up.
Hazel
00:45:40Yeah.00:45:42uh,00:45:45Sage dashes.00:45:4780 feet, and then that is my turn.
Dungeon Master
00:45:51um
Hazel

Dungeon Master
00:45:55Yes, a D12.
Hazel
00:45:58Eight.
Dungeon Master
00:45:59No complications.
Hazel
00:46:02Cool.
Dungeon Master
00:46:04After you is Iva, but I need to be right back.00:46:08really quick.
Rhysaene
00:46:11we were doing this without all baffarian00:46:19The FOS2.
Iva
00:46:22- Thank you.
Luma
00:46:24Uh…00:46:25We’re starting a little far, unfortunately.00:46:27I was going to mind to spike him.
Rhysaene
00:46:30Oh my god.
Luma
00:46:30- Yeah.00:46:32So I always know where he is.
Rhysaene
00:46:34- Oh my god.
Luma
00:46:38But…00:46:39We’re too far, I think. I don’t think I’m going to be able to close the distance.
Rhysaene
00:46:42Oh no, I’m sorry.
Luma
00:46:42Good evening.00:46:44That was okay.
Iva
00:46:45You would have to cast Neatly!
Luma
00:46:47sigh
Rhysaene
00:46:48Yeah.
Luma
00:46:48It’s a somatic only…00:46:50like things, so I might be able to disguise it as I’m running.00:46:55Who knows?00:46:56Didn’t think that far ahead.
Rhysaene
00:46:57Just be like to buy chocolate and then like…
Luma
00:47:02Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:47:04and00:47:06It costs the mind spike.
Luma
00:47:08past Minespike.
Rhysaene
00:47:11I cast Mind Spike.
Dungeon Master
00:47:20I’m back.
Rhysaene
00:47:21Hello.
Luma
00:47:21Welcome back.
Dungeon Master
00:47:22Iva, what are you doing?
Iva
00:47:25Uh,
Luma
00:47:26Yeah.
Iva
00:47:26Iva is going to move and then dash.
Dungeon Master
00:47:30Go for it.
Iva
00:47:32which,00:47:33is I want to say yes. I wanted to double check but it’s it’s only 60 feet. I go to00:47:42by 60 feet.
Dungeon Master
00:47:44You also all need to keep track of how many times you take the dash action.00:47:48You are limited to three plus your constitution modifier, and then you have to start making saves versus exhaustion.
Iva
00:47:55Yeah.00:47:56And then I’m going to tactical shift as a bonus action and move another 15 feet.
Dungeon Master
00:48:03Okay.
Iva
00:48:05And a D12, I’m assuming?
Dungeon Master
00:48:09Yeah.
Iva
00:48:13A 12th.
Dungeon Master
00:48:15A 12, you suffer no complications.
Iva
00:48:21I thought 12 would be bad for some reason.00:48:28That’s all I got.
Hazel
00:48:32I mean, on some tables, a 12, like summons an adult green dragon or something.00:48:38So I understand.
Dungeon Master
00:48:39- Yeah.
Iva
00:48:40I was like, yeah, I was like,
Rhysaene
00:48:41Yeah.
Iva
00:48:43I00:48:46Where I come from, a 12 is not always a good thing to see on the table.
Luma
00:48:47would.00:48:51Who would do that? That’s silly.
Hazel
00:48:55Thanks for the feedback.
Dungeon Master
00:48:58Oops.00:49:01Um,00:49:03faster you.00:49:07Oh, you can do that.00:49:08Um,00:49:11I’m going to.00:49:12Um,00:49:15it in a square.00:49:18the00:49:21The person you are chasing.00:49:23Oh.00:49:25heel turns and begins running south.
Luma
00:49:34Look at him go.
Hazel
00:49:36Me too.
Luma
00:49:41- Boom.
Dungeon Master
00:49:49So that’s one dash action.00:49:52- Hmm.00:49:55What is your con mod?00:49:57Oh boy.
Iva
00:49:59Minus one.
Dungeon Master
00:50:00not eat.
Iva
00:50:00You know, it’s one.
Dungeon Master
00:50:01laughs
Iva
00:50:02One dash action.
Dungeon Master
00:50:04Uh-huh.00:50:05it.00:50:05He will take a second dash action.
Iva
00:50:08Wait, you do them in multiple in the same turn?
Dungeon Master
00:50:11He can.
Luma
00:50:14The roll gun.
Dungeon Master
00:50:14And he…00:50:15He…00:50:16He whips around a building into a little alleyway.00:50:19He has now taken two dash actions.00:50:22And that’s the end of his turn. What is it at D12?
Hazel
00:50:28Fucking rogues.
Dungeon Master
00:50:30Fucking rogues, man.00:50:31What’s a D12 look like? One of these weirdos.
Iva
00:50:34It’s like a baby D20.
Dungeon Master
00:50:36So five.00:50:39This is too many tabs to have open at once.
Iva
00:50:41ankle breaks and he falls over it.
Dungeon Master
00:50:42I don’t know.00:50:45five.00:50:46What?00:50:49Um…00:50:52Okay, he’s gonna make a…00:50:54These chase rules are so goofy.00:51:01When he heel turns here, he bumps into a large guy carrying a crate…00:51:07The crate falls to the ground.00:51:09The guy, like big, like,00:51:12like big burly muscle man with a big mustache goes, you little shit.
Luma
00:51:12Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:51:17and tries to deck him.00:51:18um,
Hazel
00:51:19laughs
Rhysaene
00:51:19- Yes!
Dungeon Master
00:51:21He makes a dexterity saving throw and natural 20s it.
Luma
00:51:22You’re a little…
Hazel
00:51:26- No!
Dungeon Master
00:51:26So he dodges without it.00:51:30narrowly avoiding taking a massive fist to the face.00:51:35Um, as you-
Hazel
00:51:37Fuck.00:51:38We’re so close to getting Anton 2.0.
Iva
00:51:41Oh, my God, right?
Dungeon Master
00:51:41I don’t know.
Rhysaene
00:51:41Bye.
Hazel
00:51:42Every time.
Luma
00:51:43headbutt.00:51:432.0.
Dungeon Master
00:51:45uh,00:51:46The last turn of round one of the chase is Luma.
Luma
00:51:52Au revoir.
Dungeon Master
00:51:53You know where he is.
Luma
00:51:54Um,
Dungeon Master
00:51:54You could still, you like saw where he turned.00:51:56You hear him like rushing.00:51:57He hasn’t taken, he hasn’t had a chance to disappear yet.
Iva
00:51:59Yeah.
Luma
00:51:59I mean,
Iva
00:52:01We heard a man go, you…
Dungeon Master
00:52:01At the moment, you know he’s over here.
Iva
00:52:04We heard a man scream about him and
Hazel
00:52:08We know where he is because of like…
Dungeon Master
00:52:11Yeah.
Luma
00:52:13Mm-hmm.
Hazel
00:52:14For some reason, I’m just imagining like a stevedore.00:52:17I just picture Lash.
Luma
00:52:17Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:52:17Oh.
Luma
00:52:18And
Rhysaene
00:52:18Yeah.
Dungeon Master
00:52:18I almost used the word stevedore, and I was explicitly thinking of Lash.
Hazel
00:52:24Okay.00:52:27then I would have been like, there’s no dots.
Luma
00:52:27I’m going to start running on them.00:52:30I’m going to start running this way to hopefully cut him off if he…
Dungeon Master
00:52:33Yeah.
Hazel
00:52:33Yeah.
Luma
00:52:35Runs that way. That’s my one dash and then I need to make a00:52:39A D12.
Dungeon Master
00:52:41Yeah, D12.
Luma
00:52:42Where the fuck is my d12?00:52:44Um…
Dungeon Master
00:52:44That’s a good question.
Luma
00:52:46I don’t think I’ve ever used my D12.00:52:48Oh, wait.00:52:49Oh, there it is.00:52:50Is that a D12? How many faces do you have to the top?00:52:54Uh…
Hazel
00:52:56It’s like a D20 with body dysmorphia.
Luma
00:52:59Nine.
Dungeon Master
00:53:01A nine is no complication.
Luma
00:53:04Woo!
Dungeon Master
00:53:04um,00:53:07Okay.
Luma
00:53:08Luma hustles a little bit, but she’s like, I’ll cut him off.00:53:12Ah.00:53:41I’m going to.
Dungeon Master
00:53:44Why is that not work?00:53:51There we go.00:53:53You had to cut him off00:53:56At initiative count zero,00:54:00if he is not in anyone’s line of sight, which he is currently not,00:54:05roles.00:54:06Oh.00:54:10What’s everybody’s passive perception, if you could put passive perception and then the number in the game chat?00:54:20I don’t think anyone’s gonna get this though.
Hazel
00:54:35I’ll be so sad.00:54:37I’ve been waiting so long for passive perception to come up.
Dungeon Master
00:54:40It’s like the only thing it’s used for is the fucking chase rules.
Iva
00:54:41Thank you.
Rhysaene
00:54:41Thank you.
Hazel
00:54:43- Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:54:45Um,00:54:47You all…00:54:50You all…00:54:52lose track of his position.00:54:54You know where he last was.00:54:57Uh,00:55:09when you lost track of them.
Hazel
00:55:13I’m not depressed.
Luma
00:55:16Is that it?
Dungeon Master
00:55:18No, you could keep pursuing him.00:55:19You know where he was if you hit line of sight on him again00:55:23or, like, take the search action and beat his stealth role.
Luma
00:55:24Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:55:27Either of those things will…
Luma
00:55:27Okay.00:55:29Okay.
Dungeon Master
00:55:29Well, we’ll start us anew.00:55:32We’re still an initiative, so that was that.00:55:34Sweet.00:55:35year of t00:55:37We come back around to Rhys, who unfortunately is prone.
Rhysaene
00:55:42Yeah.00:55:43I’m going to…
Luma
00:55:43Oh.
Rhysaene
00:55:44Yeah, get myself up.
Dungeon Master
00:55:47So half your base speed, so 20 feet of your total movement to get up.
Rhysaene
00:55:47Um,00:55:51Yeah.00:55:52Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I will00:55:54So how many adds three plus your con mod?
Dungeon Master
00:55:58Yes, it’s three plus your con mod times you can take the dash action before you start having to make con saves.
Rhysaene
00:56:03Thank you.00:56:05Okay.00:56:06- Uh…00:56:08I’ll dash where I last saw him.00:56:12So I think that’s 60 feet of a refund.
Dungeon Master
00:56:15Yes, it is 60 feet.
Rhysaene
00:56:19Can I ready a dash action instead?
Dungeon Master
00:56:22You cannot ready a dash action, I don’t think.
Rhysaene
00:56:25Okay, I was going to…
Dungeon Master
00:56:26Well, you can ready movement, I believe.00:56:30If you want to do that, you could move 20 feet and then ready movement.
Rhysaene
00:56:37Um, cause I was00:56:39thinking if00:56:40If Luma wants, I could…00:56:44ready movement.00:56:45after she gets on me.
Dungeon Master
00:56:47Luma is…
Luma
00:56:47I’m.00:56:48Oh, far away from you now, unfortunately.
Dungeon Master
00:56:49Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:56:50That is very fair. I’m sorry.
Luma
00:56:52That’s okay.
Rhysaene
00:56:54Yeah, I’ll just dash where I last saw him then.00:56:58I’ll keep a suit.00:57:00Keep him on his toes.
Luma
00:57:00Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
00:57:01I can’t do the screenshots now because I now have a hidden token.
Rhysaene
00:57:05That’s fine.00:57:09Trust everyone.
Luma
00:57:10Yeah.00:57:11Uh,00:57:12uh,00:57:13Snipping tool.00:57:15Choup.00:57:17It’s a little zoomed out because I’m catching everything.00:57:19So if you need me to zoom in at some point, let me know.00:57:22But,00:57:24He is the purple in the alleyway.
Dungeon Master
00:57:27And I need a d12 roll for gris.
Rhysaene
00:57:33Oh, boy, okay.00:57:365th.
Hazel
00:57:36You fucking sure about that?
Dungeon Master
00:57:38A five.00:57:40You…00:57:42- Yeah.00:57:44You roll a five.00:57:47And as you kind of take off to where you last saw him,00:57:51you graze against the same large mustache man00:57:54that he ran into.00:57:56And he whirls around ready to deck you in the face.
Luma
00:57:58Amen.
Dungeon Master
00:58:00You may make…
Rhysaene
00:58:00Oh!
Dungeon Master
00:58:01a strength, dexterity, or charisma saving throw your choice.
Rhysaene
00:58:06I will make a charisma saving throw.
Luma
00:58:08Flashwood hit a woman.
Dungeon Master
00:58:10laughing
Hazel
00:58:10Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:58:11I love it.
Iva
00:58:11Yeah, with no question.
Rhysaene
00:58:13Yeah.
Hazel
00:58:13Excuse me, that’s actually…00:58:15I believe he explicitly would not.
Rhysaene
00:58:16Thank you.
Hazel
00:58:17Yeah.
Rhysaene
00:58:17uh so charisma saving throw 10 plus 7 17.
Dungeon Master
00:58:23With a 17, what do you do or say to this guy to, in like a split second, convince him not to punch you with a 15?
Rhysaene
00:58:29Whoa, whoa, whoa, I’m sorry, don’t touch me, I’m okay. Sorry, I didn’t mean to.
Dungeon Master
00:58:35Yeah, yeah, yeah, just get out of my way.00:58:39And he kind of like brushes you to the side,
Hazel
00:58:40Thank you.
Dungeon Master
00:58:41but he does not deck you.
Rhysaene
00:58:43Ooh.
Hazel
00:58:43Hold on, are you the Lash?00:58:45How’d you guess?
Rhysaene
00:58:46I don’t know.
Iva
00:58:46I’ll see you next time.
Dungeon Master
00:58:46Oh, how’d you guess?00:58:48They don’t be the lastest favorite.
Luma
00:58:48Yeah.
Hazel
00:58:49It’s me and a lash.
Iva
00:58:50Did you get my elect?00:58:51Did you get my letters?
Dungeon Master
00:58:52the
Hazel
00:58:54- Cool.
Dungeon Master
00:58:54to get my letters. Hazel, it is your turn.
Hazel
00:58:54-
Iva
00:58:56Really?00:58:58Yeatly stops.
Hazel
00:58:59laughs
Rhysaene
00:58:59Don’t go hit the little pretty ladies.
Hazel
00:59:03Um,00:59:0650, so 80 feet total on stage, that’s 50.
Dungeon Master
00:59:11Okay.
Hazel
00:59:13And then I get another 30.00:59:16the sage comes out here. Oh, should I give you sages passive perception as well?
Dungeon Master
00:59:20Yes.
Hazel
00:59:22All right.
Luma
00:59:25Bullshit.00:59:27uh,
Hazel
00:59:28a jackal00:59:30has a passive perception of.00:59:34Um,00:59:3615, so it’s less than Hazel, so don’t matter.
Dungeon Master
00:59:38Okay.00:59:39Um,00:59:40I will also remind you all that you are able to take the search action to make perception checks.00:59:45However, Hazel’s passive perception is 17, and that was not high enough.
Hazel
00:59:51Yeah.00:59:57Hazel and Sage00:59:58immediately seeing this guy like01:00:01immediately seeing01:00:04This guy duck.01:00:05into an alley immediately01:00:09turn in as well to try to cut them off.
Dungeon Master
01:00:13I wonder if I can…
Iva
01:00:13Why is it suddenly dark for me?
Hazel
01:00:18Uh,
Luma
01:00:18I can’t see the map anymore.
Dungeon Master
01:00:20Okay, I’ll fix it. Don’t worry.
Hazel
01:00:24Iva and Luma gain a sudden onset of…01:00:31Per and it’s nearsightedness.
Dungeon Master
01:00:36Um,01:00:37Hazel, I need a D12.
Hazel
01:00:42Do you really?01:00:43Yeah, okay.01:00:44Um…
Iva
01:00:46Are you sure about that?
Hazel
01:00:48eight.01:00:48Again. Yes!
Dungeon Master
01:00:49Uh, yeah.01:00:50No complications for Hazel.01:00:55Iva!
Iva
01:00:58All right.01:01:00I have a season where Hazel’s going and thinks that’s a good plan.01:01:04So we’re going to move.01:01:07and dash.
Dungeon Master
01:01:11Okay.
Iva
01:01:11Then I am going to, once again, bonus action.01:01:1515 feet.01:01:18I’m running out of second wins, though.
Luma
01:01:21I’ll see you next time.01:01:22Oh, no.
Iva
01:01:23And then I’m going to action surge.
Luma
01:01:26The pain.
Dungeon Master
01:01:26Oh lord.
Iva
01:01:28And dash again.01:01:30So that’s, I’m now at three dashes.
Dungeon Master
01:01:31Wait.01:01:32Okay.01:01:33When you come around the corner,01:01:36you see the guy.
Iva
01:01:36Right feet.01:01:39Oh.
Luma
01:01:40It’s the guy.
Dungeon Master
01:01:40Yeah, you see it there.
Iva
01:01:40- See you next time.01:01:41I don’t know.
Luma
01:01:41Got him!
Dungeon Master
01:01:43He hadn’t had a chance to move yet.
Luma
01:01:45Yeah.
Iva
01:01:46I got it. There he is.
Dungeon Master
01:01:50You use everything to get into…01:01:55potentially get into melee range of this guy.01:01:59Um,
Iva
01:02:02Does he look like Dante?
Dungeon Master
01:02:02roll your,01:02:04No.01:02:05He does not look like Dante…01:02:08He is like 5’10”.01:02:13kind of average build, sandy brown hair, short…01:02:17Um, he has like,01:02:18Five o’clock shadow. He’s wearing plain dark wool01:02:22like clothes and01:02:27No armor that you can see, but he is wearing a heavy wool coat that could conceal light armor.01:02:35You also similarly don’t see any armaments.01:02:39But again, he’s wearing a very big coat.
Hazel
01:02:43Oh, this guy is so fucked.
Iva
01:02:43- Boom.01:02:45I was hoping he was attractive.
Dungeon Master
01:02:48He’s all right looking.
Hazel
01:02:48Nah, he’s so…
Iva
01:02:49Eh, but Mig’s not going to do it.
Hazel
01:02:53He’s so fucked.01:02:54I know locate person.01:02:55So if you can recreate his appearance for me.
Iva
01:02:57Oh, fuck, you’re right.
Dungeon Master
01:02:58-
Iva
01:02:59I got you, dude.
Rhysaene
01:03:00Oh!
Luma
01:03:01Right.
Dungeon Master
01:03:02Oh God. Okay. Um, you,
Iva
01:03:03Yes.
Luma
01:03:04this party incredibly good at finding shit.
Dungeon Master
01:03:07Well, hold on, because the Iva still needs to roll a d12 and may not actually make it there.
Luma
01:03:07Ha ha ha.
Iva
01:03:07I don’t know.
Hazel
01:03:07Uh-huh.
Rhysaene
01:03:08No.
Luma
01:03:08Thank you.
Hazel
01:03:14Oh, true.
Iva
01:03:1470.
Dungeon Master
01:03:15A seven, you make it there.
Iva
01:03:17And now he’ll never escape.
Hazel
01:03:17Yes!
Dungeon Master
01:03:19Uh,01:03:22Okay.
Luma
01:03:22I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
01:03:23Because this is not a linear chase,
Luma
01:03:26- Mm.
Dungeon Master
01:03:27We will allow attacks of opportunity.01:03:30However, he’s going to disengage.
Iva
01:03:34the air, but now he’s going to run out that way.
Dungeon Master
01:03:34uh,01:03:37He’s…
Hazel
01:03:37Mm-hmm.
Iva
01:03:38or around me.
Dungeon Master
01:03:39He knows Rhys is there and Hazel’s there.01:03:41So he’s going to keep trying to…01:03:42He’s going to go 5, 10…01:03:4715.01:03:4820.01:03:5025.01:03:5235.01:03:5440.01:03:5545, 50, 55, 60.01:03:59He is going to disengage as a bonus action and take a dash action.01:04:04to wrap around to the south01:04:07He’s going to roll a d12.01:04:10is going to not suffer any complications.
Iva
01:04:14Punk.
Dungeon Master
01:04:17Um,01:04:20I have a, uh,01:04:22you know exactly where he went you saw him you got in his face hazel you and sage both saw him run by01:04:30- Oh.01:04:31this little alleyway and you know where he is.01:04:34Do either of you01:04:35call out or tell anyone else where he’s going.
Hazel
01:04:38Yes.01:04:40uh,01:04:42Hazel will will will shout to to01:04:46to Luma and01:04:50She’ll actually, you know what, she’ll shout to Luma and Elvish that he’s going south.01:04:54And just hoping that this guy doesn’t speak Elvish.
Dungeon Master
01:04:57Uh-huh.01:04:59Smart.01:05:00It brings us to Luma’s turn.01:05:01You know Hazel.01:05:03You know he’s in this area.
Luma
01:05:06Go ahead.01:05:07I have --01:05:09Interesting.01:05:11I think I need to check.01:05:14Uh,
Rhysaene
01:05:15I’m back. Hello.
Dungeon Master
01:05:16Welcome back, hello.
Iva
01:05:17Hello.
Hazel
01:05:18Does Rhys speak Elvish?
Rhysaene
01:05:20No.
Hazel
01:05:21All right.01:05:22That’s okay.
Rhysaene
01:05:23Thank you.
Luma
01:05:26Uh,01:05:31There are no, like, little fucked up constructs in this world, right?01:05:34So I can’t just throw people.
Dungeon Master
01:05:35No, not in, not in the Silver Vale. No. If you, if you bring out Beepo, it’s gonna, it’s,01:05:42It’s gonna cause a whole bunch of things.
Luma
01:05:45There’s a lot of people around me, I assume.
Dungeon Master
01:05:46There are, yeah, there’s a fair number of people.01:05:48This is already, like, drawing a lot of attention.
Luma
01:05:54need to get my name.
Iva
01:05:54It’s not every day there’s a chase.
Dungeon Master
01:05:57So far, it’s just like, this is really weird. I’m gonna like, I’m gonna tell stories about this this evening. If if like actual violence breaks out, or that would turn it into a much bigger deal. And if any magic is detected, that would turn it into like a full inquisition.
Hazel
01:05:57Mm-hmm.
Luma
01:06:1735.
Dungeon Master
01:06:19with elves.
Luma
01:06:20Brings me to here.01:06:24Uh…01:06:25Yeah.01:06:27That’s my turn, I dashed.
Dungeon Master
01:06:30give me
Luma
01:06:30That’s my second.01:06:32And.
Dungeon Master
01:06:32Give me a…
Luma
01:06:341912 roll.01:06:36is a nine.
Dungeon Master
01:06:37Nine is no complications.
Luma
01:06:39Woo!
Dungeon Master
01:06:42Oh, right. He gets his stealth roll.01:06:47Um,01:06:48rules in that 20.01:06:50You all again…01:06:54lose track of him.01:06:57I don’t think Iva has line of sight.01:07:10which brings us around to Rhys.01:07:11Rhys, you don’t know where he is.01:07:14You know where he was going.01:07:17going because, no, you don’t, because you don’t speak Elvish.01:07:20You know where your friends are.01:07:21You know, Luma’s somewhere down here.
Rhysaene
01:07:22Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:07:23You know, Iva and Hazel and Sage are all in this, like,01:07:27Sorry, I’m like highlighting in the map that you can’t see.
Rhysaene
01:07:27Yeah.
Iva
01:07:30-
Rhysaene
01:07:30That’s okay. That’s okay. That’s okay. I’ll go to where I know Iva is and I will try to take the search action.
Dungeon Master
01:07:39Or you move towards Iva.01:07:41Um,01:07:42and you can give me a, you have a 40 foot move.01:07:47you can give me a perception check.
Rhysaene
01:07:51Okay!01:07:53Um…01:07:56Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.01:08:00Um,01:08:00Um,01:08:02I just01:08:0318 on the day.
Dungeon Master
01:08:05With an 18, you are not able to hear this guy.01:08:09You don’t see him anywhere.
Rhysaene
01:08:12Huh.
Dungeon Master
01:08:15um,
Rhysaene
01:08:15- Uh,01:08:16Okay.01:08:17I guess I’ll go to the next one.
Dungeon Master
01:08:19Give me a D12.
Rhysaene
01:08:20Oh boy.01:08:22Um…01:08:25The same guy’s going to come over and be like, I’m a warmer reader.
Hazel
01:08:29Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:08:29I’m so excited.
Iva
01:08:30He’s like, wait a minute.
Rhysaene
01:08:32- Three.
Dungeon Master
01:08:37As you, like, round the corner…01:08:39Or as you, like, run past the guy…01:08:42He was hauling, like, crates and barrels of things, putting them into a wagon.
Rhysaene
01:08:46Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:08:46You have to run through this, like, pile of crates and barrels to get through here quickly.01:08:51I need you to make me a…01:08:54um, dexterity or intelligence saving throw.
Rhysaene
01:08:58Oh boy, what do I have?01:09:02It doesn’t matter anyway. Let’s try it.01:09:06Oh boy, that’s a six.
Hazel
01:09:08Oh.
Dungeon Master
01:09:08Um,01:09:09you kind of like find yourself tripping over the crates and barrels on it.01:09:15It slows you down a little, but not much.01:09:17It just, like…01:09:18eats 10 feet of your movement is essentially all it does.
Rhysaene
01:09:21Mm.
Dungeon Master
01:09:21So you end up there.01:09:24doesn’t really change anything else.
Rhysaene
01:09:26Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:09:27And that is your turn.01:09:30Which brings us next to Hazel.
Hazel
01:09:34Hello. Okay, I would like to take the hide action.
Dungeon Master
01:09:38Go for it. Give me a stealth check.01:09:41A, yeah, a stealth check.
Hazel
01:09:45That was a natural 20.01:09:49Plus five for a total of 25 dungeon decks.
Dungeon Master
01:09:52You.01:09:53Uh…01:09:55EU.
Iva
01:09:58I’ve been here the whole time.
Dungeon Master
01:09:58you hide.01:09:59You…01:10:00You…01:10:01You adjust your cloak and in the same way that the cloaks in the Lord of the Rings kind of blend into whatever surroundings without being like wildly magical.01:10:14Your cloak just like you rub yourself against this building and it picks up the dirt and dust from the building and kind of just blends you into it.01:10:22almost perfectly.
Hazel
01:10:25and01:10:26Okay.
Dungeon Master
01:10:27You are successfully hidden.01:10:32uh,
Hazel
01:10:32So I’m gonna go ahead and guess.01:10:35Fat.01:10:40It’s01:10:41Within…01:10:46I would say it’s reasonable to01:10:50to assume01:10:52that01:10:53No one has no one can beat that.01:10:56Like no one has beaten that.
Dungeon Master
01:10:58Um,
Hazel
01:10:58but I’m fairly hidden.
Dungeon Master
01:11:01You are invisible currently.01:11:04As per the 2024 stealth rules, you are straight up invisible right now.
Hazel
01:11:08Okay.
Dungeon Master
01:11:10And I’m not sure he can beat that.01:11:15um,01:11:17What did you say your total was a 25?
Hazel
01:11:19Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:11:21If he takes the search action, he can detect you on a 19 or 20 on the die.
Hazel
01:11:28Okay.01:11:29Um…
Dungeon Master
01:11:30Otherwise, you are out.01:11:33imperceptible right now.
Hazel
01:11:35couple questions. One, how high is this? How tall is this01:11:38building right next to me?
Dungeon Master
01:11:39Let’s say it’s a two-story building, so it’s like 25 feet.01:11:43hole.
Hazel
01:11:43Okay.01:11:45Second question,01:11:48If I were to wild shape,01:11:51because I’m stealth.01:11:52People wouldn’t see me transform.01:11:54They would just see, like, the…01:11:57Basically, I’m asking like,01:11:58If I were to wild shape, it would break my stealth01:12:00because it’s like an action or whatever, but would it01:12:03would it also like01:12:04Would me turning into a creature just like be the…
Dungeon Master
01:12:09You will be surprised.
Hazel
01:12:10would I be able to successfully wild sheep?
Dungeon Master
01:12:11You are surprised to learn that the condition ends on you immediately after any of the following occurs. You make a sound louder than a whisper, an enemy finds you, you make an attack roll, or you cast a spell with a verbal component. Wild Shape is none of those. So you are in fact still completely hidden.
Hazel
01:12:27one night.
Luma
01:12:28Thank you.01:12:30Do the sounds of your bones snapping and reshaping go above a whisper?
Hazel
01:12:30Yeah.01:12:34Buh-huh!
Luma
01:12:34I don’t know.
Hazel
01:12:37I think Hazel will find this slightly objectionable to her sensibilities after the fact.01:12:44But while the chase is on, we require a01:12:48We require something with grace that we’ll be able to successfully bypass the situation.01:12:56And then Hazel turns into a cat.01:13:00Uh,01:13:02and climbs01:13:0525 feet.01:13:07up the
Dungeon Master
01:13:11Sure.
Hazel
01:13:12And then moves…01:13:1515.01:13:16cross.
Dungeon Master
01:13:17you with that vantage point are able to see the guy01:13:21because he has not been taking the hide action.01:13:24It is a mechanic of chases that you can lose track of people01:13:27based on their stealth roles.
Hazel
01:13:29Ah, okay. Interesting.
Dungeon Master
01:13:30So he is not hidden, and by gaining line of sight, you see him clearly.
Hazel
01:13:36Mm-hmm.01:13:39Cool.
Dungeon Master
01:13:39Yeah.
Hazel
01:13:40And now Sage.01:13:4120.01:13:4320.
Dungeon Master
01:13:45and you can roll a d12.
Hazel
01:13:48Yes.
Dungeon Master
01:13:49Um…
Hazel
01:13:50And yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:13:51Actually, I will not have you roll a d12 because you are not currently in the streets.
Hazel
01:13:56Okay.01:13:57The sage rule of D12.
Dungeon Master
01:13:59Yeah, sure.
Hazel
01:14:01All right, all right.01:14:02I think that’s fun. I think that’s a fun, uh, that’s a fun, um, whatever you call it.01:14:08Just hopefully she doesn’t take any damage.01:14:10Oh.
Dungeon Master
01:14:11it is possible that Sage could end up taking damage.
Hazel
01:14:15Uh, she rolled a five.
Iva
01:14:18She’s about to get punched by Lash.
Dungeon Master
01:14:20Um,
Hazel
01:14:21Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:14:21Lash isn’t over here, but yes.01:14:24as Sage run by01:14:28You hear from inside the building below you,01:14:30yeah, yeah, take it out the damn trash,01:14:32and the door swings open.01:14:34Sage needs to make a dexterity or strength saving throw01:14:39Or charisma, your choice.
Hazel
01:14:42Okay.
Dungeon Master
01:14:42or risk taking some serious damage.
Hazel
01:14:44Yeah, guys.01:14:47If Sage dies, Hazel’s taking a sabbatical and killing this random guy.
Iva
01:14:52Give me a moment. I have to do something real quick.
Rhysaene
01:14:52Thank you.
Iva
01:14:55Turns into the building.
Hazel
01:14:55Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:14:57This is actually, Sage is probably going to die here.
Hazel
01:15:0115.
Dungeon Master
01:15:02you,
Hazel
01:15:03on a dexterity save.
Dungeon Master
01:15:03Yeah.01:15:04The DC is 15.
Hazel
01:15:07Oh!
Dungeon Master
01:15:08- Thank you.
Rhysaene
01:15:08Oh my God.
Hazel
01:15:08Hoorah!
Dungeon Master
01:15:09Sage just narrowly avoided 2d4 bludgeoning damage.
Hazel
01:15:14- Yeah, okay.
Rhysaene
01:15:15Bye.
Hazel
01:15:15Bye.01:15:16My baby!
Dungeon Master
01:15:17Sage just like barely on pure NSYNC leaps out of the way of this door as it swings wide open really quickly.
Hazel
01:15:18- Yeah.
Temerity
01:15:20- Thank you.
Hazel
01:15:25Dude.
Dungeon Master
01:15:25You hear like a, huh?
Rhysaene
01:15:26- Oh my God.
Dungeon Master
01:15:27What the?
Temerity
01:15:28laughs
Dungeon Master
01:15:30uh,
Hazel
01:15:31uh,
Dungeon Master
01:15:31And that’s,01:15:32Sorry.
Hazel
01:15:33No, you’re good. Sage did not take the dash action.01:15:37And all she is going to do is she’s just going to start barking at the, uh,
Dungeon Master
01:15:37Okay.
Hazel
01:15:41At the at the man.
Dungeon Master
01:15:43Love, love, love.
Hazel
01:15:44to like a large.
Dungeon Master
01:15:44You all hear Sage barking and you know exactly where Sage is.01:15:49Iva, it is your turn.01:15:52You don’t currently see the guy, but you see Sage barking at someone.
Iva
01:15:57Yeah, you know, I got ideas.
Dungeon Master
01:15:58Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hazel
01:16:00Mm-hmm.
Iva
01:16:02I bet I can figure it out.
Dungeon Master
01:16:06I don’t think this guy’s getting away.
Hazel
01:16:08He he he.
Temerity
01:16:08Thank you.
Iva
01:16:08I don’t think those guys got it in LA because if you do,
Dungeon Master
01:16:09I don’t think this guy’s getting away.
Iva
01:16:12So, Iva is going to…01:16:17Move.
Dungeon Master
01:16:18Okay.
Iva
01:16:19use my last01:16:21second wind.
Dungeon Master
01:16:24All right.
Iva
01:16:25I am now within range of him.
Dungeon Master
01:16:28Uh-huh.
Iva
01:16:29And I would like to grab him.
Dungeon Master
01:16:31Oh!01:16:33Yes. Give me one second.01:16:36I don’t remember how that works.
Iva
01:16:36- Yeah.01:16:38gonna fucking tackle this man.
Dungeon Master
01:16:39Ooh, grapple.01:16:42Okay.01:16:43action grapple.01:16:44Um,01:16:46This uses, so this is an unarmed strike.01:16:49It uses one of your attacks.01:16:51So you actually have two chances to do this01:16:53’cause you have two attacks.01:16:54Um,
Iva
01:16:54Oh, if it’s an attack, I can…01:16:58give myself advantage.
Dungeon Master
01:17:00No, it’s not a regular attack.01:17:03you are not rolling for it.
Iva
01:17:03Oh.
Dungeon Master
01:17:06Your DC is equal to eight plus your proficiency bonus plus your strength modifier.
Iva
01:17:14right?01:17:198 plus…01:17:21Four is 12 plus three is 15th.
Dungeon Master
01:17:25So your DC 1501:17:28I don’t know.01:17:28This rule doesn’t have that part.01:17:31uh,01:17:32library, player’s handbook.01:17:38grapple.01:17:39action.01:17:42What the heck?01:17:44Unarmed strike.01:17:45This could be anywhere.01:17:47grab old DCs 8 plus string plus proficiency,01:17:51It’s making a strength or dex saving throw its choice.01:17:55So it’s going to make a… Oh god! It’s going to try and make a dex save, DC 15.01:18:02It fails. You have successfully grappled this fellow.
Iva
01:18:08As Iva grabs hold of…01:18:11him and goes, where are you going, handsome? I wasn’t done talking to you.
Dungeon Master
01:18:19Um,01:18:24as a utilize action. So it takes a full action, you cannot do it as an attack. As a utilize action you are able to01:18:34attempt to force your manacles onto this guy.
Iva
01:18:38Oh, so that’s01:18:40Like an item interaction action.
Dungeon Master
01:18:42Yeah, it’s a utilize action.
Iva
01:18:45Yeah, I’ll do that.
Dungeon Master
01:18:45No, it’s not an object interaction.01:18:48It is an action.
Iva
01:18:50Oh, okay, so I need an action.
Dungeon Master
01:18:52so you need an action, but you do have him grappled currently.
Iva
01:18:55Oh, right. He’s about to get the mage caught. Well, that’s not true. I have Rancor Mandicles, too.
Dungeon Master
01:18:55um,01:18:57You.01:18:59You do have another attack.01:19:01You could, if you would like to,01:19:05um,01:19:06attempt to shove him prone and essentially like throw him to the ground.01:19:10So it’s even harder for him to get away.
Iva
01:19:11Yeah.01:19:12Yeah, yeah, I’ll do that.
Dungeon Master
01:19:15um,01:19:17then I think he needs to make another saving throw, perhaps?01:19:22uh,01:19:23An arm strike.01:19:25Shove, strength or dex save, so it’s making01:19:28Another DC 15 deck save.01:19:31He just barely passes.01:19:32So you grab him and you’re holding him.01:19:33You try to shove him to the ground,01:19:35but he’s a little too wiry01:19:36and you’re not exactly able to get him.01:19:39um,
Iva
01:19:41Dilly Wiggly Man.
Dungeon Master
01:19:42silly wiggly man01:19:44And01:19:45Do you do anything else?
Iva
01:19:47No, that’s all I got.
Dungeon Master
01:19:49That brings us to him. He’s going to attempt to escape the grapple.01:19:55He does not have proficiency in acrobatics.01:19:59Um, so he’s just,01:20:02Just hoping. He, not once, fails to escape the grapple.
Iva
01:20:05-
Dungeon Master
01:20:06Um,01:20:07Let’s.
Rhysaene
01:20:07- Cool.
Iva
01:20:07They had…
Dungeon Master
01:20:08Let me go. Let me go right now, or I’ll call for the guards.
Iva
01:20:14Iva goes, well, I have the feeling that since you started to run…01:20:18that that would be a bad choice for you too.
Dungeon Master
01:20:23Luma.01:20:26It is your turn.
Luma
01:20:29uh,01:20:31I’m going to move.01:20:33I’ve already dashed three times.01:20:35What’s my con mod?01:20:37I have a plus three con mod. I am fine.
Dungeon Master
01:20:39Jesus Christ.
Luma
01:20:41Almost honky.
Rhysaene
01:20:41Thank you, Luma.
Dungeon Master
01:20:43What do you mean? You have a 16 con?
Luma
01:20:44- Mm-hmm.01:20:44Yeah.
Hazel
01:20:44If you didn’t do it,
Luma
01:20:46Yeah, Louis got a 16 con.01:20:49Yeah.
Iva
01:20:50She has more con than Iva.
Hazel
01:20:52- It makes sense, you think how many?
Luma
01:20:52We’re not going to talk about the fact that01:20:54Luma’s a fucking noodle, but has cardio for days.01:20:57Uh…
Hazel
01:20:59It’s all those all-nighters.01:21:00Yeah.
Iva
01:21:01Thank you.
Luma
01:21:02It’s because she grew up on a logging…01:21:05Yeah.
Hazel
01:21:06I don’t know yet, true.
Luma
01:21:07Uh…01:21:08She’s going to stand. Can I like peek around the corner if I stand right here?
Dungeon Master
01:21:12Yes.
Luma
01:21:13Okay.01:21:14Uh,01:21:15Because he’s not going to come around the corner quite yet, but if he runs this…
Dungeon Master
01:21:17Yeah.
Luma
01:21:20This way she’s basically watching to make sure that he doesn’t like go that way or that way or that way. She’s covering the bases, you know, she’s going to wait.
Dungeon Master
01:21:23Yeah.01:21:25Yeah, yeah.
Iva
01:21:26He’s not going at you.
Luma
01:21:27She’s going to wait right here. That’ll be my turn.
Iva
01:21:27You can act.01:21:30He’s not going anyway.
Dungeon Master
01:21:31you.01:21:32He cannot disappear as you all can see him.

Rhysaene
01:21:44Yeah, can I move over to him? How far away is he?
Dungeon Master
01:21:47you can01:21:49with 40 feet of movement, you can just like barely see him around the corner.01:21:54So you could dash to get up next to him or you could do something else.
Rhysaene
01:21:54Oh.01:21:58I’ll dash up next to them, yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:22:00you kind of,
Rhysaene
01:22:00I’m going to cut him off if I can.
Dungeon Master
01:22:01Yeah, you get into, like, essentially flanking with Iva.
Rhysaene
01:22:05Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
01:22:07who’s got her arms wrapped around him and is holding him up off the ground currently.
Rhysaene
01:22:12Are there other people around us
Dungeon Master
01:22:14Yes.01:22:15There’s a couple people in the street to the south, and they…
Luma
01:22:20Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:22:20They’re kind of like stopped and watching what’s going on.01:22:23There’s a guy standing like in like, like he’s got his like house door open and he’s01:22:29just staring at the stuff that’s going on right now.01:22:32So there are like plenty of people watching this all happen right now.
Hazel
01:22:36citizens arrest.
Rhysaene

Luma
01:22:39citizens are us.
Rhysaene

Rhysaene
01:22:53Oh.
Iva
01:22:53Oh, I…01:22:54I must have done on Rhys’s turn.01:22:56I don’t think that’s fair.
Rhysaene
01:22:58I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
01:22:58that’s just,01:22:59To zone, to zone.
Iva
01:23:01All right.
Luma
01:23:01is free.
Iva
01:23:02- You’re the subject check.
Rhysaene
01:23:03giggle01:23:04I was going to…01:23:05It doesn’t look like I was going to say something.
Dungeon Master
01:23:08You can also,01:23:10the more the better.01:23:11Because right now,01:23:12this is incredibly suspicious on you guys.
Iva
01:23:1618.
Dungeon Master
01:23:1718, noted.01:23:20um,
Rhysaene
01:23:21Um,
Luma
01:23:23Where’s the bystander effect to fucking save us?
Hazel
01:23:26Hehehehe.
Rhysaene
01:23:26All…
Temerity
01:23:26Heh heh heh heh.
Rhysaene
01:23:28Allah
Temerity
01:23:31This guy knows to single out people individually.01:23:33Fuck!
Rhysaene
01:23:34Mm-hmm.
Luma
01:23:34Fuck, what the fuck?
Rhysaene
01:23:35Bye.
Temerity
01:23:36Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:23:36You there at the door, help me!
Temerity
01:23:38I’m sorry.
Rhysaene
01:23:38- Yeah.
Hazel
01:23:39I was like, he-he-he-he.
Rhysaene
01:23:39Um,
Temerity
01:23:40Gasp
Rhysaene
01:23:43I think I’ll say…01:23:53I don’t know.01:24:04Mmm.01:24:07I don’t know how to reason…01:24:11Yes, I think I’ll say I’ll be okay for now.01:24:14Sorry, I couldn’t figure out something to say.01:24:19Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:24:21So that’ll be your turn.01:24:24’cause you did have to dash.01:24:26which brings us back to Hazel.01:24:33Hazel.
Hazel
01:24:33You know, I, yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:24:34site.01:24:35Go ahead.
Hazel
01:24:37Uh,01:24:38It’s kind of hot between these two buildings.
Dungeon Master
01:24:41Yeah.
Hazel
01:24:43All right.01:24:45a cat.01:24:46which everyone wants to be, by the way.01:24:50I don’t know if you’ve heard me.
Dungeon Master
01:24:50No.01:24:51Because a cat’s the only cat that knows where it’s at.
Hazel
01:24:54Yeah.01:24:55Cat’s got like 40 feet of movement, I think.
Dungeon Master
01:24:57I don’t know.
Hazel
01:24:57Click.01:25:00Hazel hops over, hits there.01:25:03And then the sage comes around and goes.
Dungeon Master
01:25:07-
Hazel
01:25:08still.01:25:09Actually,01:25:10Tick, tick.01:25:12Actually, she just, she’ll…01:25:15She’ll come up to Iva and Rhys.01:25:18on the side here and just she’ll just sit down she won’t she won’t bark anymore.01:25:26Uh, and that’s.01:25:28That’s the turn.
Dungeon Master
01:25:30I think that’s the turn.01:25:33All right.01:25:34Um, that’s Hazel.01:25:39I have a…
Iva
01:25:41Oh, man.
Hazel
01:25:41Huffle.
Iva
01:25:44uh,01:25:45uh,01:25:46This guy’s making a real stir.01:25:48Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:25:50He sure is.01:25:51I mean, he really, like, he isn’t.01:25:54He isn’t, like, screaming for help.01:25:57Oh, fuck. I gotta be right back. Sorry.
Hazel
01:25:59You’re good.
Rhysaene
01:26:00No worries.
Hazel
01:26:01Ha ha.01:26:03because of his unscopulous
Rhysaene
01:26:04Okay.01:26:06I think whatever’s going to happen.
Hazel
01:26:06career path.
Rhysaene
01:26:08I think what I was going to say was like, hold on, like,01:26:10Let’s talk.01:26:12in a very threatening way.
Hazel
01:26:15Yes.01:26:26This is what happens when you make when you when you make business.01:26:29in, in, in,01:26:31in shady ways.01:26:33One day when you get tackled in an alleyway, you can’t call for help because then you become implicated all of a sudden.
Rhysaene
01:26:39Yeah, suddenly people start looking into you.
Temerity
01:26:39Thank you.
Hazel
01:26:40- Okay.
Temerity
01:26:49So while Catspire be01:26:51I didn’t realize you had to locate person.01:26:53We could find Daisy.
Rhysaene
01:26:55We can, yeah.
Hazel
01:26:57Yes.01:26:58I totally forgot about that, to be honest.
Temerity
01:27:00He he he he he he he.
Luma
01:27:01The only problem is just like, well, I guess we could do the ritual thing again.
Hazel
01:27:06Andrew Tuft: The.
Luma
01:27:06They get 3,000 feet.
Temerity
01:27:06Mm-hmm.
Luma
01:27:08- Oh.
Temerity
01:27:08laughs01:27:10Daisy noped the fuck out.01:27:13Daisy got the hell out of Argentum.
Rhysaene
01:27:16So, so,
Dungeon Master
01:27:16We’ll be back.
Rhysaene
01:27:19hyper and a wrist and I was like, fuck that.
Luma
01:27:21I’m…01:27:23I’m more worried that we’re going to do that and it’s going to point down.
Hazel
01:27:26Uh…
Temerity
01:27:26Yeah.
Luma
01:27:27And we were like, well, there’s no way for us to get down there.01:27:29Like, we don’t know the entrances or anything.
Temerity
01:27:29-
Dungeon Master
01:27:31um,
Temerity
01:27:31uh,
Dungeon Master
01:27:33I’m back.01:27:34It is…01:27:36So the guy, he’s not like making a huge commotion.01:27:39He’s threatened to call for the guards.01:27:41He has not called for the guards.01:27:42He is not screaming for help.
Luma
01:27:46Yeah.
Iva
01:27:47I would say to him, hey,01:27:49Worst comes or worst, we have a nice little conversation about why you’re following us, and then we let you go.
Dungeon Master
01:27:56All right.01:27:57Okay. We can talk if that’s, if that’s what you want.
Iva
01:28:04I’ve elixed to risk.01:28:06I was like, I didn’t expect to get this far.
Rhysaene
01:28:07Yeah.01:28:09Yeah, why don’t we01:28:11Why don’t we find a place to be?01:28:13to be01:28:17More casual, why don’t you say?
Dungeon Master
01:28:20Nope, that’s okay. We’ll talk right here.
Rhysaene
01:28:23All right.01:28:24Let’s do that right now.
Dungeon Master
01:28:28Yeah.01:28:32“Iva, what are you doing?”
Iva
01:28:32Iva goes,01:28:34She says, she looks at him and goes, if I let you go, are you going to run?
Dungeon Master
01:28:34Sorry.01:28:38Um,01:28:39No, I’ll stay right here.01:28:42uh,
Iva
01:28:43Can I, can I?
Dungeon Master
01:28:45Insight.
Iva
01:28:46Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:28:47Yeah, go ahead.
Iva
01:28:50I was 17 on the dice, and I think I’m01:28:53What’s one I didn’t say if I were never corrected?01:28:56No, I’m plus three, so 30-20.
Dungeon Master
01:28:58With a 20, and ah, he’s lying.01:29:00He’s going to bolt the second you let him go.
Hazel
01:29:00Yeah.01:29:02I was gonna say, do not let him go.
Iva
01:29:03That’s what I…
Rhysaene
01:29:03giggle
Hazel
01:29:04Look at him.
Temerity
01:29:04Yeah, he’s going to absolutely pull.
Iva
01:29:05Loud noise
Luma
01:29:05Yeah.
Iva
01:29:06Have a go.01:29:09And then he goes, you know…01:29:12I was gonna let you go, but I think you lied to me.
Dungeon Master
01:29:17I wouldn’t do that.
Iva
01:29:19you
Hazel
01:29:20- I am.
Luma
01:29:21would it do that?
Dungeon Master
01:29:22I wouldn’t do that.
Iva
01:29:22Thank you.
Temerity
01:29:24That’s crazy. You sound crazy right now.
Iva
01:29:24uh,
Dungeon Master
01:29:26It’s so great.
Luma
01:29:26You’re so crazy right now.
Iva
01:29:28What’s crazier is you’re about to put the handcuffs on him.01:29:33Because now that he said that, I’m putting the handcuffs on him.
Dungeon Master
01:29:36All right.01:29:37Um,01:29:39Give me a sleight of hand check.
Iva
01:29:43That’s not as good as my other things.01:29:47That’s not charisma based, is it?
Dungeon Master
01:29:49No.
Hazel
01:29:50Eee.
Iva
01:29:50laughs
Rhysaene
01:29:50What?
Iva
01:29:53Can I convince you that it’s crazy?01:29:55the beast.
Dungeon Master
01:29:56No.
Iva
01:29:57Can I deception the GM real quick?
Dungeon Master
01:29:59No.
Luma
01:30:00I don’t know.
Iva
01:30:00Yeah.
Hazel
01:30:01Thank you.
Iva
01:30:03Oh, a 16.
Dungeon Master
01:30:04Yeah, a 16, he struggles,01:30:06but you’re able to get the mage manacles on him.01:30:09Unlike normal manacles,01:30:12Um, the way these are set up actually prevents him from doing anything with his hands, um,01:30:18So he’s not going to be able to slip these cuffs the way you might be able to normal manacles.01:30:22The only way out of them is if someone else unlocks them,01:30:26or if he can make a DC 25 athletics check to break them.
Rhysaene
01:30:31- Whoa.
Iva
01:30:33Yeah, the mage manacles are kind of fucky.
Dungeon Master
01:30:37You get the manacles on him.01:30:38They will not stop him from running.01:30:41Um,01:30:42on their own, but they, he can’t,01:30:44He can’t use his hands for anything right now.
Iva
01:30:47Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:30:48He’s like, “This is not necessary and a little weird. I thought you just wanted to talk.”
Iva
01:30:56I do, but…01:30:58You scare me about running and, well, having mage manacles on you.01:31:04is…01:31:05not a thing that you want to have while you’re walking around the streets.
Dungeon Master
01:31:07I mean,01:31:07I mean,01:31:10Ah.01:31:12give me01:31:14Are you trying to imply like he doesn’t want to be seen wearing these?
Iva
01:31:18Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:31:19Give me an intimidation check.
Iva
01:31:21right? Hey, you know what that is, though?
Luma
01:31:22Good point, though.
Rhysaene
01:31:24- Mm-hmm.
Luma
01:31:26You don’t want to be confused for being a mage on the run, do you?01:31:29They’ll shoot you in the streets.
Dungeon Master
01:31:30It is a good point.01:31:32It’s a great point.
Iva
01:31:32I’m kidding.01:31:33He’ll murder you in the streets.01:31:36That would be a…
Hazel
01:31:36real estate.
Iva
01:31:42I didn’t put anything in intimidation.01:31:43What the fuck am I doing with my life?01:31:45Uh,01:31:46Twelve.
Dungeon Master
01:31:46- I still have advantage.
Luma
01:31:46Yeah, because you have advantages, there’s no reason to be good at it when you’re just naturally good at it.
Hazel
01:31:47BOOM
Iva
01:31:50Yeah.
Hazel
01:31:50Thank you.
Iva
01:31:51I rolled a 2 out of 10, so…
Dungeon Master
01:31:53Um,01:31:55He says,01:31:58literally no one is going to think I’m a mage.01:32:02I’m much more worried about what you’re going to do to me.01:32:06than what someone might think.01:32:08So no.01:32:09I’m not going to your second location for you to…01:32:12to kill me or whatever it is you would do with me.01:32:16Ask your questions.01:32:19Um, bear in mind, this is, like, all still going on with, like, a crowd watching.01:32:24Iva was able to be, like…01:32:27Yeah, you think you could get away with stalking a bunch of women, and people were like, what the, what?01:32:33What’s this guy up to?
Iva
01:32:33guys.
Dungeon Master
01:32:34But now it’s getting weird again.
Iva
01:32:36And now she’s putting handcuffs on the guy.
Luma
01:32:36Now it’s getting weird again.01:32:44Now it’s getting weird again.
Iva
01:32:44Someone that’s not
Rhysaene
01:32:45Um,
Luma
01:32:46It’s so funny.01:32:46Yeah.
Iva
01:32:47-
Rhysaene
01:32:50Can…01:32:54I guess I feel playing off of that angle.01:32:56Risk is going to be…01:33:00Can I also turn to make a…01:33:03like persuasion or intimidation.01:33:05by saying just barely enough for people to hear like,01:33:08yeah, you don’t want people to be,01:33:09you want the good people of our tent to know01:33:12Or a01:33:14Key on what we’re going to help you on if you get funny right now.
Dungeon Master
01:33:20Make an intimidation check.
Hazel
01:33:22We’re gonna cancel you, buddy!
Rhysaene
01:33:22Okay.01:33:24-
Iva
01:33:24laughs
Temerity
01:33:25laughs01:33:26It’s so over for you.
Rhysaene
01:33:29uh
Dungeon Master
01:33:29Oh,
Rhysaene
01:33:31Okay.01:33:32Okay, wait, I have a plus seven.
Dungeon Master
01:33:36word.
Rhysaene
01:33:37So that is a 17.
Dungeon Master
01:33:4117.01:33:42He kind of like…01:33:46he groans and kind of resigns himself.01:33:50You can tell he’s kind of breathing a little heavy, um…01:33:53You’re pretty sure that he burned his three dash actions and trying to run now is risky.01:34:01He’s like,01:34:02All right.01:34:03All right, all right.01:34:05What do you want from me?01:34:08And we’ll go ahead and end.01:34:10I’m not going to end it in case you guys do something that causes him to run for it.01:34:14But we’ll consider initiative on hold for the moment.
Iva
01:34:24Alright. I have a look to the group. Again, the whole, I didn’t expect to get this far.
Rhysaene
01:34:30Thank you.01:34:32.01:34:35Um,01:34:37Can I attempt to like corral him to like a place where we’re not in front of a billion people?
Dungeon Master
01:34:42Yeah.01:34:42He’s currently cooperating
Rhysaene
01:34:46Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
01:34:46So if you try to move him, he’ll move with you.01:34:49He’s not going to full resist at this point.
Rhysaene
01:34:51Okay.01:34:55I guess we’re walking in01:34:57talking,01:34:59Um,01:35:01Rhys is just going to be like, why are you following us?
Dungeon Master
01:35:05Are you staying in this cluster of buildings?01:35:09Are you moving out into the streets?
Rhysaene
01:35:11Oh, ah.
Dungeon Master
01:35:13I’m sorry, I keep forgetting you can’t see the map.
Rhysaene
01:35:15that’s fine
Dungeon Master
01:35:15But it’s the thing.01:35:17The same area as the last screenshot.
Rhysaene
01:35:20Mm-hmm.
Luma
01:35:23I’m sorry, I’m slacking.01:35:27Oh.
Rhysaene
01:35:28No, no, no, don’t worry, hun. I’m also slacking. I’m not as on the pool as I am.01:35:35uh,
Luma
01:35:36You go.
Rhysaene
01:35:37Oh, thank you.01:35:41Um, can we, can we find a way to Luma?
Luma
01:35:45- Maybe what?
Dungeon Master
01:35:45You can go over to Luma if you want.01:35:47You can lead him anywhere.01:35:48Nothing stops you from doing it.01:35:51It’s just a matter of that’s taking the guy you have handcuffed out into, like, the open street full of people.
Rhysaene
01:35:55Okay, okay.
Iva
01:35:57Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:35:57um,01:35:58There’s that building that’s like straight to the north of Iva.
Iva
01:35:59I mean…
Dungeon Master
01:36:03um,01:36:04there’s a guy currently like taking out his trash who’s,01:36:08doing it really slowly because he’s watching the drama. There are people in the street to the south
Luma
01:36:11Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:36:13There’s the alleyways you came in from north of you that are like,01:36:17little narrow spaces between buildings that you could go into.01:36:20But like these people are still right here.
Hazel

Dungeon Master
01:37:28Yeah, mostly.01:37:30Um,01:37:32Let’s see.01:37:33It does if he rolls a natural two.01:37:35Sage gets in the door, no problem.01:37:37Hey, you mangy mutt, get back here!01:37:39And he drops the trash bag and takes off back into the…
Hazel

Hazel

Dungeon Master
01:38:1517? Okay, he’s not going to develop a disorder because Sage manages to hide first. He’s going01:38:21to think the dog ran back around or something. If that hadn’t happened, he would have watched Sage01:38:26disappear.
Hazel
01:38:28Uh-huh.
Iva
01:38:29- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:38:29No, 17 is successful, Sage hides and then is dismissed.

Rhysaene
01:40:16Who sent you?
Dungeon Master
01:40:19No one sent me. I, um…01:40:22You all are very strange looking group.01:40:25So I was curious. So I wanted to see what you were up to.

01:40:54with a 12, um,01:40:57you kinda like the way he said it, he was quick.01:41:00Um,01:41:01quick to pull that one, but you could kind of tell that it was kind of like off the seat of his pants. He’s01:41:09in a panic, it seems like he’s probably lying.
Rhysaene
01:41:18Mmm.01:41:24I don’t fucking trust you.
Dungeon Master
01:41:28I…01:41:30You don’t have to trust me. Just let me go. I’m, I’m,01:41:34I’m not here to hurt you or anything.01:41:37Don’t even really know who you are and I don’t want anything to do with you.
Rhysaene

Dungeon Master
01:42:24I am01:42:25I told you, you all stand out.01:42:28I thought you were weird, so I wanted to see what you were up to.01:42:33And it’s not any less clear that he’s lying.01:42:37when he repeats it.
Iva
01:42:45Oh yeah? What makes me interesting, huh?01:42:48I’m just a girl from the city.
Dungeon Master

Dungeon Master

Iva
01:44:58Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:44:59I don’t have anything to tell you that you want to hear.
Iva
01:45:07What we want to hear?
Dungeon Master
01:45:11I already told you why I was following you.01:45:14I’m not going to change my story just because you keep asking.
Iva
01:45:18why I said what we want to hear about what,01:45:20Your story was…
Dungeon Master
01:45:23I don’t know, you seem to want to hear a specific answer01:45:25because the one I gave you hasn’t, you know…01:45:27Unlock these cuffs.
Iva
01:45:30But you said a weird thing, and I was just asking about the weird thing you said.
Dungeon Master
01:45:39He tries to shrug and has trouble doing so.
Hazel
01:45:47I wish I was not a cat right now.
Dungeon Master
01:45:50- Yeah.
Iva
01:45:51I wish you weren’t a cat right now.

Rhysaene
01:45:58Yeah.01:45:59Um,
Dungeon Master
01:46:01Now that would be intimidating, but that really fucks with the dynamic of the situation.
Rhysaene
01:46:01Excellent.
Temerity
01:46:05-
Rhysaene
01:46:09Um,01:46:10I’m going, what else can I?01:46:13Uh,01:46:17Listen.01:46:22If what you’re saying is true,01:46:25We ain’t going to harm you.01:46:27or01:46:28do anything.01:46:33We just want to be safe too.
Dungeon Master
01:46:36I’m not going to hurt you. Let me go and I’ll leave.
Rhysaene
01:46:48Oh, I’m trying to think.01:46:51Does this guy have anything on him that indicates where he’s from or anything?
Dungeon Master

Rhysaene
01:47:32Right.01:47:33Yeah.
Dungeon Master

Rhysaene

Dungeon Master
01:48:56- Okay.01:48:58He shakes his head and he says, “No.”01:49:01Um,01:49:02He is like shaking when you say that.01:49:05There’s no way he doesn’t know Daisy.01:49:07He rolled a nat one on his deception.01:49:10He’s like, no, I’ve…

Dungeon Master
01:49:15Daisy?01:49:16Is that a flower? What? I don’t know. I’ve never heard of anyone called Daisy.
Rhysaene
01:49:19Rhys slaps him.
Dungeon Master
01:49:20That’s crazy.01:49:21Give me an attack roll, strength plus proficiency.
Rhysaene
01:49:26Okay, I’m not that good. I’m not that good at this. Strength and sufficiency, okay.01:49:33Um,01:49:34- Fourteen.
Dungeon Master

Rhysaene

Dungeon Master
01:49:41You slap him across the face for two points of bludgeoning damage.01:49:55I don’t.01:49:57I don’t think I want to answer any questions. Let me go.
Iva
01:50:01-01:50:01Yeah.01:50:03Ha ha ha.01:50:15looks to the wrists and like, uh, we’re not letting go. Right.
Rhysaene
01:50:21I’ll look over the cat on my shoulder.01:50:23He’s thinking he’s moving on any ideas.01:50:26Thank you.
Iva
01:50:28If only we had a Luma with her bag from holding, we could stuff him in.
Hazel
01:50:28Yeah.
Rhysaene
01:50:29- Yeah.01:50:31Thank you.
Hazel
01:50:33What? That would get… What?
Luma
01:50:33public?
Iva
01:50:35Thank you.
Hazel
01:50:35I don’t know.
Iva
01:50:36We’re in public.
Dungeon Master
01:50:38I will point out, Eylesis, I know I traumatized you on that move.01:50:41I don’t think…01:50:42I don’t think this guy understands…01:50:45And I don’t think he can access anything sharp with which to ruin your bag of holding this time.
Hazel
01:50:52The head.
Luma
01:50:54It would be really funny if we sent the Anton equivalent to the Astral Sea, though.
Hazel
01:50:59Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
01:50:59Him and anything within 10 feet of him.
Luma
01:50:59But…01:51:01let’s go on a whole nother let’s change the nature of this campaign
Hazel
01:51:03Thanks.
Dungeon Master
01:51:05it.
Luma
01:51:06-
Temerity

Luma
01:51:08Thank you.01:51:08- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:51:09the nature of this hit page would change considerably.01:51:12Actually, it’s wild that…01:51:15I shouldn’t say this because it’s I Listened.
Luma
01:51:16Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:51:17The nature of the fact that Luma has in her possession01:51:21an item that could just instantly like entirely derail01:51:24the entire trajectory of the campaign is wild.
Luma
01:51:27It’s
Temerity
01:51:27-
Luma
01:51:28Uh…01:51:30We couldn’t, there’s no way for us to get back on our own.
Dungeon Master
01:51:33No, there’s not…
Rhysaene
01:51:34Thank you.
Luma
01:51:35Yes.01:51:35Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:51:35And I don’t think you want to be in the astral plane as fifth level characters.
Luma
01:51:39Yeah.
Hazel
01:51:40Yeah.
Luma
01:51:41Yeah.01:51:42- Yeah.
Hazel
01:51:42I don’t know. Cat Hazel jumps on top of the stranger, like just on top of its head.
Dungeon Master
01:51:45What the fuck?
Luma
01:51:45the first.
Dungeon Master
01:51:46He starts trying to like shake his, ah, shaking his head, trying to, to, to,
Hazel
01:51:47Yeah.
Luma
01:51:49Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:51:52Um,01:51:53to knock you off, give me an acrobatics check.
Hazel
01:51:57- Brrrr!
Dungeon Master
01:51:59the DC will be 10 because that is what he rolled.
Hazel
01:52:03All right.
Dungeon Master
01:52:03Oh, he’ll roll with disadvantage, actually, because he’s awful.
Hazel
01:52:05Is my acrobatics01:52:06better than
Dungeon Master
01:52:06The DC is sixth.
Rhysaene
01:52:09Yeah.
Hazel
01:52:09Is my acrobatics better than a cat’s?01:52:11No, it is not. It’s the same.
Rhysaene
01:52:13Just harassing him at this point.01:52:17It’s so good.01:52:19Meow.
Hazel
01:52:20Uh,
Temerity
01:52:21Mm-hmm.
Hazel
01:52:22I rolled a nine.
Dungeon Master
01:52:24A nine beats a six, you manage to cling to his head as he tries to shake you off.
Hazel
01:52:28Mike.
Dungeon Master
01:52:30Does this count with you? Get it off me.01:52:33What the fuck? Guys!
Rhysaene
01:52:33Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:52:35Guys, get this cat off me, please!
Iva
01:52:38- Iva goes, “I don’t know, I don’t know.”
Rhysaene
01:52:38I ain’t gonna get this cat off you until you give me some fucking answers.
Iva
01:52:40I don’t know any chat.

01:52:48I’m sorry.
Dungeon Master
01:52:48- Give me, Hazel,
Temerity
01:52:48Yeah.
Hazel
01:52:49- Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:52:50Give me an intimidation check.
Hazel
01:52:52Yeah.
Iva
01:52:52it
Temerity
01:52:53I’ll see you next time.
Rhysaene
01:52:53laughter
Iva
01:52:54I don’t know any cats.
Hazel
01:52:55Thank you.
Iva
01:52:56I can’t help you.
Hazel
01:53:01Oh God.
Rhysaene
01:53:01- Whoa.01:53:02-
Hazel
01:53:03A five.
Dungeon Master
01:53:05But yeah, he’s not scared of a little house cat.01:53:08He’s more like annoyed.
Temerity
01:53:10laughs
Hazel
01:53:12Well, this annoyance can end if you answer our questions.01:53:16This mild annoyance.
Dungeon Master
01:53:18Does Hazel say that?
Hazel
01:53:20No, no, no.
Dungeon Master
01:53:20Okay.
Temerity
01:53:21then he gets freaked out and it’s like,
Hazel
01:53:22Okay.
Temerity
01:53:23all right,01:53:24I’ll answer your questions.01:53:25Get your demon cat away from me.
Hazel
01:53:25-01:53:27I’m gonna kill you, I’m gonna kill you, I’m gonna kill you.
Temerity
01:53:29- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:53:29Yeah.
Rhysaene
01:53:30What?01:53:31I don’t know.
Hazel
01:53:33- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:53:33Hey, it probably worked, but at what cost?
Hazel
01:53:36I love it.
Temerity
01:53:36I do.01:53:38laughs01:53:40- Yeah.01:53:40- -
Dungeon Master
01:53:41I feel like at this point, Luma, you for sure hear, like, weird fucking, like…
Rhysaene
01:53:41Oh,
Luma
01:53:45Oh, yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:53:45You hear like,01:53:46meow, meow.01:53:47Get this cat off me!
Rhysaene
01:53:48Yeah.
Iva
01:53:50What’s a cat?
Dungeon Master
01:53:53What?01:53:54What the fuck?
Luma
01:53:55Oh.
Dungeon Master
01:53:55What the fuck is wrong with you people? Let me go!
Rhysaene
01:53:57just01:53:58Rhys is just going to keep poking at his head.01:54:00Like, just like, you know, I don’t know if you guys have seen Andor, but you know the director Kranich, like, pedpoint?01:54:05Like, she’s just going to keep pointing at his head.
Dungeon Master
01:54:05Oh, God.01:54:08Do the the Krennic like press your finger into his head and he’s he like winces.01:54:12You can tell after you slapped him he’s a little more concerned with you like.01:54:18hurting him,01:54:19Um,01:54:21But like,01:54:23It doesn’t…01:54:24It doesn’t seem to…01:54:25to push him to a point where he’s going to change what he’s saying.01:54:29Give me an insight check.
Rhysaene
01:54:33Okay.01:54:35Okay, 17.
Dungeon Master
01:54:38um,01:54:40Let me see.01:54:42Um,01:54:44You’re getting the impression that you’ve slapped him, you’ve manacled him, you’ve cornered him, you also made a point to drag him into an alleyway.01:54:54You threatened to horse kick him, and then all you did was slap him across the face.01:54:59He01:55:00He is not…01:55:01seem to be01:55:04scared for his life.01:55:06And at that point, he is not worried enough01:55:11about what you’ll do to him to say anything.01:55:15Um,01:55:16You are currently like01:55:18The current situation is a stalemate.01:55:22You have him pretty pinned.01:55:24You haven’t scared him enough to say anything, but if you were able to scare him enough to say anything, you’ve also scared him enough to start, like,01:55:33to worry about his life more than worrying about maybe ending up in jail.01:55:40So it is kind of like a catch-22 of, you have this guy.01:55:43But01:55:44He only loses by telling you anything, so he’s not going to tell you anything, is kind of the thought process you…
Rhysaene
01:55:52Right.
Dungeon Master
01:55:53imagine is going through his mind.
Luma
01:56:01Try a thing, but I…01:56:03Don’t know if this is.01:56:05Too far outside of Luma’s character to do.
Dungeon Master
01:56:08laughs
Rhysaene
01:56:10Um,01:56:12I will hold his mouth.
Iva
01:56:16All right.
Dungeon Master
01:56:16Hold on.
Iva
01:56:18Iva goes, Iva looks at him as he says, hold on.
Dungeon Master
01:56:23You don’t have to do that.
Rhysaene
01:56:25home,
Iva
01:56:25I’m a ghost.01:56:25Oh, man.
Rhysaene
01:56:27Hold his mouth.
Iva
01:56:27Dad.01:56:28That’s a funny thing to say and then covers his mouth.01:56:31Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:56:31You still have him grappled, you can cover his mouth easy enough.01:56:34He goes…
Rhysaene
01:56:34I…01:56:35while pressing my finger into his…01:56:39Here’s Temple. I’m going to cast Mind Sliver.
Dungeon Master
01:56:43Um,01:56:45You’d…
Luma
01:56:45- God damn.
Dungeon Master
01:56:46You hold his mouth.01:56:47You do not do anything to hide the fact that you are casting a spell.
Rhysaene
01:56:51Oh, wait, oh.01:56:53Because there was people around, right?
Dungeon Master
01:56:55They’re not currently people that can see you.01:56:58You are like in an alleyway that’s around a corner.01:57:01You are pretty secluded.01:57:03But this guy for sure can still see you and hear you casting a spell.
Rhysaene
01:57:09Yeah, because of these.
Hazel
01:57:09Mindslipper’s only component is verbal, so I don’t think that you can really hide that.
Rhysaene
01:57:14Mm-hmm.01:57:16Mm-hmm.01:57:17Oh man.
Dungeon Master
01:57:17you’re going to have trouble hiding the fact that you are in this guy’s face,
Rhysaene
01:57:20Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:57:21uttering some like strange empowered words.01:57:24And then his like brain splits open.
Rhysaene
01:57:24Thank you.
Temerity
01:57:29Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
01:57:29Mm-hmm.01:57:29- Thank you.
Iva
01:57:30but that might scare him more.
Rhysaene
01:57:31Okay, we’ll try. Fuck it, let’s just be real soon.
Luma
01:57:32Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
01:57:32Yeah.
Hazel
01:57:33It’s true, Daisy knows that you pull a greatsword out of your chest, so they know you’re magical.
Dungeon Master
01:57:34So,01:57:36It’s a…
Rhysaene
01:57:38Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:57:38It’s an intelligence saving throw.
Rhysaene
01:57:39Yeah.
Luma
01:57:40for,
Rhysaene
01:57:41Yes, intelligence saving thrower.
Dungeon Master
01:57:42Thank you.01:57:44Uh,01:57:45He…
Rhysaene
01:57:45DC 15.
Dungeon Master
01:57:46He rolls a 14.01:57:49So he takes, what, 2d4 psychic?
Rhysaene
01:57:522d6 psychic.
Dungeon Master
01:57:542D6 psychic.
Rhysaene
01:57:54He takes…01:57:56I’ll do psychic image.
Dungeon Master
01:57:57eight points.
Rhysaene
01:57:58Yes.
Dungeon Master
01:57:59um,01:58:02on.01:58:09He takes eight points of psychic damage.01:58:12Um, blood starts dripping from his nose.01:58:15As he, like, he tries to, like…01:58:18instinctively reach up to like grab his forehead, but he can’t move his arms.01:58:24He says you.01:58:25What?01:58:26You.01:58:27Ew.01:58:29You’re, you’re, you’re, you’re some kind of witch.01:58:31He’s some kind of01:58:33Ah!01:58:34- Ah.01:58:34Oh, don’t.01:58:36Uh,01:58:38Give me an intimidation check.01:58:41You have advantage, Ben.
Rhysaene
01:58:41Rhys is staring at him extremely coldly.
Dungeon Master
01:58:45- Yeah, you have advantage again.
Luma
01:58:51And I sure hope he wasn’t some kind of uninvolved third party that was curious and not part of the Daisy’s crew, because this is going to turn south real fucking fast.
Iva
01:58:55Thank you.01:58:56Yeah.
Rhysaene
01:58:56and all of them01:58:58I don’t know if I…01:58:59I don’t know if an unemboldened third party would have a hand crossbow on them.
Iva
01:58:59It’s just one little burger.
Rhysaene
01:59:05And like Nosedaisy.
Iva
01:59:07And…01:59:08And.
Rhysaene
01:59:09uh so
Iva
01:59:10A party that eats friendship bread together should be able to murder together.
Rhysaene
01:59:13Thank you.
Dungeon Master
01:59:14Thank you.
Rhysaene
01:59:1418 on the first roll.
Luma
01:59:18You have tainted the sanctity of the friendship bread.
Dungeon Master
01:59:18card.
Rhysaene
01:59:19uh,
Luma
01:59:21I’m revoking your access to friendship.
Rhysaene
01:59:21Oh.01:59:23- Yeah.01:59:24Uh, 20…
Luma
01:59:24Yeah.01:59:25- Uh.
Rhysaene
01:59:2622.
Dungeon Master
01:59:28You watch as his eyes widen,01:59:32as the realization that you are not just01:59:34another person, you are some kind of mage, and you are capable of causing, like, severe…01:59:42like mental strife with,01:59:43uh,01:59:44but a word.01:59:46He says, I don’t.01:59:48Please, please, please don’t hurt me, please.
Rhysaene
01:59:51I can do this all fucking day.
Dungeon Master
01:59:52Okay, okay, what do you want?
Iva
01:59:54Yeah.
Dungeon Master
01:59:55What do you want? I just want to go home.01:59:58What do you want from me?
Rhysaene
01:59:59Why?02:00:00Why were you following us?
Dungeon Master
02:00:02Someone paid me to keep tabs on you and report everything back to them.
Rhysaene
02:00:06Who?
Dungeon Master
02:00:08I don’t know her name.02:00:10But she has a daisy tattooed on her face.02:00:13I can only assume that’s who you mean by daisy.
Iva
02:00:17oh, it’s crazy you didn’t know her name, but also somehow knew her name.
Dungeon Master
02:00:22Yeah, he heard Daisy and he was hired by someone with a Daisy tattoo on it on her face.
Iva
02:00:27No, no.02:00:27I was actually surprised.
Dungeon Master
02:00:29Oh, you’re…
Iva
02:00:29Like, that was…
Dungeon Master
02:00:31I see.
Iva
02:00:32That was not Iva being shitty.02:00:35That was Iva being like, whoa, how’d he do that?
Dungeon Master
02:00:36Gotcha.02:00:38I thought that was Bruce being shitty, so my bad.
Iva
02:00:41That was a little combination of both.
Dungeon Master
02:00:43Um, he’s, uh, she said she, she paid me, um,
Iva
02:00:44Thank you.
Dungeon Master
02:00:49She paid me02:00:5110 crowns.02:00:52um,02:00:54just to keep tabs on you and said it’d be, it’d be, it’d be,02:00:58It’d be another five crowns every day that I kept it up and another 50 when the job was completed.02:01:06And I was just supposed to tell her everywhere you went.02:01:09That’s it.
Rhysaene
02:01:13When were you next going to meet her?
Dungeon Master
02:01:15I’m supposed to meet her at the end of the week.
Iva
02:01:24And where?
Rhysaene
02:01:24I think.
Dungeon Master
02:01:25Oh, did you say where?02:01:28Did you say when or where?
Rhysaene
02:01:30when
Iva
02:01:30She said, “When?”
Dungeon Master
02:01:32Yeah, I was supposed to meet her02:01:34on the 10th.
Iva
02:01:40And where are you, Meteor?
Dungeon Master
02:01:42I was just an alley.02:01:45south side of the city.02:01:48I don’t remember exactly what it’s called. I know where it is. It’s some02:01:53Oh, let me…02:01:56Let me look.02:01:59It’s…02:02:01like straight south of the canal markets.02:02:05You can see that he…02:02:07It’s near the wall.02:02:10Um,02:02:12Over there.02:02:14We’re going to meet in an alley.02:02:16late on the 10th.
Iva
02:02:28Well, I’m a ghost.
Rhysaene
02:02:29Thank you.
Iva
02:02:29Well,02:02:30That’s good enough for me.
Rhysaene
02:02:32What’s your name?
Dungeon Master
02:02:34um,02:02:35Sorry, one second.02:02:36It’s Pell.02:02:38My name’s Pell.
Rhysaene
02:02:40Hi, pal.02:02:43We’re going to go to this meeting with you.
Dungeon Master
02:02:46- Yeah.02:02:48It’s…02:02:50What do you mean?
Rhysaene
02:02:51All right.02:02:52Or rather, you’re gonna go to this meeting.
Dungeon Master
02:02:55Yeah.
Rhysaene
02:02:56and we’ll be all right.
Dungeon Master
02:02:59Okay, yeah, sure, just let me go.
Rhysaene
02:03:04Oh shit, Lucas. He’ll probably just call for the meeting, Ali.02:03:08uh…02:03:10Fuck.02:03:11I’ve been duped.02:03:12No.02:03:14Mmm.02:03:16I’m trying to think.02:03:16Oh,02:03:18Oh, God.02:03:22I don’t know if we’re so good at the fall.02:03:27I don’t want to just kill him.02:03:30In front of me.
Dungeon Master
02:03:30It’s insane.
Rhysaene
02:03:31Yeah.02:03:35Oh, fuck.02:03:37I’m trying to think.
Iva
02:03:37That’d be crazy if Rich just murdered this guy in the street.
Rhysaene
02:03:39fucking killed this guy.02:03:41I don’t think she would go that far yet.02:03:46Uh…
Iva
02:03:48We can always pay…02:03:50Iva looks to Rissi and goes, we can always pay him to be like…02:03:54quiet.
Dungeon Master
02:03:57Yeah.02:03:58Yeah, you could do that.
Rhysaene
02:04:03Um,02:04:05Can I insight that? Is he fucking lying?
Dungeon Master
02:04:09um,02:04:10Yeah, Roll Insight.
Rhysaene
02:04:12Okay.02:04:15Okay.02:04:16Ten.
Dungeon Master
02:04:20Um…02:04:23He, at this particular moment, seems to be afraid for his whole life.02:04:28where he was not afraid for his life before.02:04:32You.02:04:33could pay him to be quiet.02:04:35And in this moment, he’d probably agree to be quiet for free.02:04:42and mean it, the question is,02:04:46once he gets away…02:04:50does he still feel like his life’s in danger?
Rhysaene
02:04:54Right.
Dungeon Master
02:04:55It’s like a complicated thing.02:04:57You currently have him terrified.02:05:00but like right now you have him terrified that you’re going to kill him in02:05:04this alleyway.02:05:05Um,02:05:06So,02:05:07You know that like,02:05:08the look on his face, he’s being very cooperative now.02:05:12You could get him to agree to pretty much anything,02:05:14and he would mean it.02:05:16The thing is that, like…02:05:19How long would that hold?
Rhysaene
02:05:21Yeah, anyone says something, anyone can say anything to…02:05:24get that.02:05:27To get out of a situation, right?02:05:28So…
Dungeon Master
02:05:29Um,
Rhysaene
02:05:30Um…02:05:37Um,02:05:38I’m trying to think.02:05:39I wish Hazel was here.02:05:41Hazel, Hazel, careful.02:05:49- Yeah.02:05:50Oh, shit.
Iva
02:05:53Castle, please. Anything.
Rhysaene
02:05:54- Oh!02:05:55- Yes, oh, help me!02:05:58I unleashed the cat again.
Dungeon Master
02:05:58sold.
Rhysaene
02:05:59No, I’m trying to get it again.
Iva
02:06:03meow now twice for yes and one for no
Rhysaene
02:06:06Yeah.
Iva
02:06:07-
Rhysaene
02:06:09Um…
Luma
02:06:12People…02:06:13Can Hazel talk in cat form?
Hazel
02:06:15Yes.
Dungeon Master
02:06:15- She can.
Luma
02:06:16Okay, Rhys just revealed that she’s a fucking witch.02:06:20to this guy.
Dungeon Master
02:06:22I don’t think anyone said any of that out loud.02:06:25I think that was a…
Luma
02:06:25No, I know.02:06:27I know, you now have justification for a talking cat.
Rhysaene
02:06:30Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:06:31Oh, I mean…
Iva
02:06:31A true…
Luma
02:06:33And
Rhysaene
02:06:33-02:06:35I don’t think so.
Dungeon Master
02:06:35You could.02:06:36That’s a Hazel’s call kind of thing.02:06:39Rhys has only revealed that Rhys is a magic user.
Iva
02:06:42Yeah, with a talking cat.
Luma
02:06:42Yeah.
Iva
02:06:44She’s a witch with a talking cat.02:06:46the classic witch familiar.
Hazel
02:06:46Mmm.
Luma
02:06:47Uh-oh.02:06:52You can never be this color cat again.
Hazel
02:06:52I think so.02:06:55Mm.
Luma
02:06:57I don’t know, just a thought that came across my mind.
Hazel
02:06:59Yeah, no, no, that’s a good…
Rhysaene
02:06:59- Uh.
Hazel
02:07:00Good.
Rhysaene
02:07:02Yeah, I’m stuck on that. I’m sorry. I was trying to think.02:07:06Um,
Luma
02:07:08Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
02:07:15Mm-hmm.02:07:20Yeah.02:07:21Um,02:07:24I think.02:07:30Uh, wrestle…02:07:35saying, uh,02:07:40Okay.02:07:45Again.02:07:47I’m doing this for Mass Safety too.02:07:52If I fucking pay you,
Dungeon Master
02:07:52Okay.
Rhysaene
02:07:56Just stay the fuck away from me.02:07:59You’re gonna do that, right?
Dungeon Master
02:08:01You got it.02:08:02Absolutely.
Hazel
02:08:04Insight.02:08:05That’s…
Dungeon Master
02:08:06Yeah, roll insights.
Hazel
02:08:10And.02:08:1420.
Dungeon Master
02:08:1520.02:08:17Um,02:08:18this guy is terrified for his life,02:08:20he would have agreed to do it for free.02:08:24But it is the exact kind of like catch-22 of like, yeah, I…02:08:29He’s fully…02:08:31He’s not lying. He wants to live and he will agree to pretty much anything to do that.02:08:38It’s the question of like once he’s out of the frying pan,02:08:42Will that hold up?02:08:44With a 20…02:08:46Um,02:08:48It’s hard to say02:08:50you get the feeling that like this was all fine and good02:08:54Until magic was involved.02:08:57And now you get a deeper sense that he doesn’t want anything to do with you.02:09:02And there’s a very real possibility that he would stay away out of fear.02:09:09But, like, you can’t.02:09:11You just can’t know the future, and this guy would be a loose thread.02:09:16He’d be someone who knows Rizig is a magic user.02:09:20um,02:09:22It’s hard to say.02:09:24In the moment, there’s absolutely no signs that he’s lying.02:09:27And it does seem like he doesn’t want anything to do with this anymore.
Hazel

Rhysaene
02:10:47-
Hazel
02:10:52You don’t know.
Dungeon Master
02:10:53See it.
Rhysaene
02:10:53Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:10:54Again, he would have agreed for no money, but Rhys asked him how much money he wanted to
Rhysaene
02:11:01Yeah.
Hazel
02:11:01It’ll sweep the deal maybe, hopefully.
Dungeon Master
02:11:04Yeah.02:11:04like,02:11:05For sure.
Rhysaene

Iva

Iva

Dungeon Master
02:12:08You have it.02:12:09who you were.
Iva
02:12:09I know I haven’t.02:12:11I just…
Rhysaene
02:12:11I don’t know.02:12:13That’s really fucking funny.02:12:15Everybody just laughs at me.
Hazel
02:12:15Iva starts looking for the key might be the biggest, like, layup opportunity that Bruce has ever given you, and he’s given you a lot in this campaign, it feels…
Dungeon Master
02:12:19laughing
Iva
02:12:26Yeah.02:12:27-
Rhysaene
02:12:27Thank you.
Hazel
02:12:27laughing
Iva
02:12:28Thank you.02:12:29If she said I didn’t have the key, I was going to hit her with a…
Rhysaene
02:12:31Oh,
Iva
02:12:31I know I have the key.
Hazel
02:12:34Hehehehe.
Iva
02:12:34I had to unlock the gauntlets before.
Dungeon Master
02:12:37I also know you had to unlock the gauntlets before.
Iva
02:12:40Yeah.02:12:41No, I was giving someone else time to say something while I was looking for the key.
Dungeon Master
02:12:45Uh-huh.
Hazel
02:12:45Right.
Iva
02:12:50And also I haven’t used these.02:12:52Thank you.
Rhysaene
02:13:03Okay.02:13:04Yeah.02:13:06Just…02:13:07I think she looks a little sorry for him, but, uh,02:13:14She’ll try not to show…02:13:16Like,02:13:17She’s like remorseful about that.02:13:20So you’re just like…02:13:22Ugh.02:13:23This fucking…02:13:24Um,02:13:25Oh.02:13:27So just…02:13:29leave. We’ll leave the yellow way.
Dungeon Master
02:13:32Rhys turns and walks away.02:13:33Iva, you’re still looking for the key?
Iva
02:13:35Nah, I would get it out by that time.
Dungeon Master
02:13:38All right.02:13:39get out the key, let him out of the manacles,
Iva
02:13:42Yep.
Dungeon Master
02:13:43The second you let him go, he takes off running.
Iva
02:13:46Yeah, I figured that was gonna happen.
Dungeon Master
02:13:49He heads south.02:13:50He runs, like, right by you, Luma.02:13:53He goes, “You.”
Luma
02:13:54We’ll see you next time.
Dungeon Master
02:13:55Bye.
Luma
02:13:55sitting on the corner coloring in her little book.
Dungeon Master
02:13:57He does not pay any attention to you.
Luma
02:13:57I know.
Dungeon Master
02:13:59He just is out of there.02:14:05Yeah.02:14:06Yeah.
Luma
02:14:06when he gets 120 feet away she mind spikes him to death now
Iva
02:14:10- Yeah.
Luma
02:14:10Okay.
Hazel

Dungeon Master

Luma
02:14:15- Exactly.
Rhysaene
02:14:16He just falls and02:14:19Everyone’s like, wow, that’s02:14:20That’s serial, Professor.
Luma
02:14:21If I was playing any other version of Luma that wasn’t a fucking…02:14:24Craybaby, I might have actually done it just to protect Rhys, but…02:14:29Luma hasn’t committed murder yet.
Rhysaene
02:14:33Aww.
Dungeon Master
02:14:35Yeah, he takes off and you lose track of him pretty quick as he…02:14:40Does he?02:14:41gets the bolts out of there.
Rhysaene
02:14:44Rhys will cuddle, Hazel.02:14:47Like a plushie.
Hazel
02:14:47Aw.02:14:48Hit it.02:14:51Never mind then.02:14:52Sage appears right next to them.02:14:54I was going to say Hazel dismisses the loud shit,

Rhysaene
02:17:55- Yeah.
Temerity
02:17:56I don’t know.
Luma
02:17:56- Okay.
Rhysaene
02:17:57Because I wanted to…
Luma
02:17:58Yeah.
Rhysaene
02:17:58Because I wanted to play, like, Rhys as, like, someone who, like, really is not, like, good at being a fucking, like…02:18:04monster like that.
Luma
02:18:07Monster!
Hazel
02:18:07- Totally.

Rhysaene
02:18:15Yeah.

Rhysaene
02:18:18- Thank you.
Hazel
02:18:21actually like02:18:24For real this time, she would have done the, okay guys, let’s, let’s, let’s shout off what our least favorite fingers are kind of thing.
Luma
02:18:28Hmm.02:18:32That’s…
Temerity
02:18:32I think that’s it.
Rhysaene
02:18:32Mm-hmm.02:18:33Thank you.
Luma
02:18:34That one was really funny.
Hazel
02:18:36- Woo hoo hoo.
Temerity
02:18:36Mm-hmm.
Luma
02:18:36Yeah.
Dungeon Master
02:18:38Back.
Rhysaene
02:18:39Yeah, Rhys was a little hesitant in that moment, and so was I.
Luma
02:18:39The most great.
Temerity
02:18:39All right.
Rhysaene
02:18:43Basically, it was the…02:18:45was the crux of it all.
Hazel
02:18:47I was like…02:18:50I.02:18:54Uh.02:18:58I did like…02:19:02think just like, man,02:19:04If I didn’t turn into a cat,02:19:08Nothing would have changed.02:19:10But also…02:19:12This is really funny.02:19:13And also, I think it’s
Luma
02:19:14Thank you.
Hazel
02:19:15I think it was nice to have Rhys confront the person.02:19:19uh,02:19:20just because like this is this is02:19:23This is the thing that directly impacts risk the most.
Luma
02:19:26Yeah, this is the risk arc.
Rhysaene
02:19:27Thank you.
Dungeon Master
02:19:29um,02:19:32Is everyone here?
Luma
02:19:34Yeah.
Iva
02:19:34yep.
Temerity
02:19:35Yeah.
Dungeon Master
02:19:35Olivia
Temerity
02:19:37Here.
Dungeon Master
02:19:38Dragoon training is pretty standard.02:19:41You learn some more Draconic.02:19:43You do a lot more drills and physical training.02:19:47the, the, the,02:19:49The…02:19:51the gap between members of the cohort of what scales grows more clear day by day.02:19:58Um,02:19:59with you and, um,02:20:04you and Emeric probably at the top in terms of pure combat capabilities.02:20:11Um,02:20:12But it’s becoming clear that other other Dragoon candidates are on a similar level of like physical fitness.02:20:20a human woman, um,02:20:22A little older than some of the other candidates, probably close to 30 if that tall…02:20:28um,02:20:29six feet, uh, she has like, uh, like a dark tan skin, um, and like a really like02:20:36defined jaw and pale blue eyes. You’ve learned her name is Mika.02:20:41Um,02:20:43She and another woman, also human, much younger, named Maren, are currently sparring.02:20:49They’re both using wooden training longswords, and as you watch, you realize…02:20:55You are probably stronger than either of these women, but they are both much more, like, disciplined in terms of training than you.
Temerity
02:21:04Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:21:04They both come from light wardens is the chatter and you just watch them spar and02:21:11um,02:21:12You’re starting to realize that these two and a couple others are probably going to make it and almost everyone else isn’t.
Temerity
02:21:20Uh-huh.
Dungeon Master
02:21:20um,02:21:22The day continues,02:21:25The morning continues like that for a while.02:21:27You break for lunch.02:21:29Um,02:21:30which there’s like a mess hall, you can get some really basic food. And as you do, Rhea Larnas approaches you.
Temerity
02:21:40Uh,
Dungeon Master
02:21:41And she looks you kind of02:21:43quickly up and down and says,02:21:45How’s the training going today?
Temerity
02:21:48at02:21:49going very well, Mika.02:21:51Marin seemed to have a lot of, uh,02:21:53a lot of potential.
Dungeon Master
02:21:55That’s not surprising.02:21:57They’re both…02:22:00They’re both light wardens.02:22:01Um,02:22:05Mm-hmm. Marin02:22:07Maren lost her, uh,02:22:11Her, uh,02:22:13her mother to a sorrowsworn. Her mother was also a late warden.
Temerity
02:22:19Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:22:19And that’s why she signed up02:22:20Uh,02:22:22Mika is the…02:22:26the sister of the02:22:28The high sensor over at Candlehold so.
Temerity
02:22:32laughter
Dungeon Master
02:22:32In both cases, uh,02:22:34runs in the family.02:22:38You find a lot of that here.02:22:41um,02:22:42People pulled out of the light wardens who…02:22:47Well, let’s just say there’s a reason eyes were already on them. You’ve got02:22:51Mika, Marin,02:22:56uh,02:22:59Sorry.02:23:02Gianna already distinguished herself among the Light Wardens.02:23:06Kyren is the…02:23:10She stops.02:23:12just nevermind.02:23:14But really, the only two…02:23:18Dark Horse candidates are you and Emeric.02:23:23Um,02:23:24Emeric more on attitude. He also was a light warden before02:23:30uh,02:23:30for joining up, so that makes you kind of the standout02:23:34time.02:23:36So I wanted to get to know a little more about you.02:23:38You don’t really have a record like anyone else.
Temerity
02:23:42No.
Dungeon Master
02:23:44PB, David Ensign -- He/ Would you.02:23:47Why are you doing this?
Temerity
02:23:52uh,02:23:53Hehehehe.02:23:55Well…02:23:56As you know, the light saw02:23:59Or, sorry, the flame…02:24:01So I’ll be fit to give me a second chance.
Dungeon Master
02:24:04Mm-hmm.
Temerity
02:24:04- Ah.02:24:06and02:24:08my duty with that chance is to fight against the Sorrow. What better way to do that than02:24:14through the group that directly confronts it.
Dungeon Master
02:24:19She kind of looks you up and down for a second and she says, where are you from?
Temerity
02:24:24Oh, crickspin.
Dungeon Master
02:24:26That’s…02:24:30farm town up the old road.
Temerity
02:24:33Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:24:35been through their…
Temerity
02:24:3520 nods.
Dungeon Master
02:24:36once or twice on patrols.02:24:39Um,02:24:41heading up to the02:24:45the old fort02:24:46um,02:24:47Or the Watchtower…02:24:50It’s a nice place.02:24:55What what?
Temerity
02:24:55I think so too.
Dungeon Master
02:24:57I think that’s true.02:25:01Is it really worth leaving behind to…02:25:05to be here.02:25:07Like.02:25:08Are you really ready to give all that up?
Temerity
02:25:19Whether or not02:25:20Uh…02:25:23Someone is ready as a material whenever destiny calls.
Dungeon Master
02:25:26Yeah.02:25:28He looks at you and she says, ah.02:25:32And you hear the call of destiny.
Temerity
02:25:35Randy nods.02:25:35Oh, yeah.
Dungeon Master
02:25:41No, I’ve seen you fight.02:25:45um,02:25:47I think you’ve got what it takes.02:25:49um,02:25:53between you and me, I think by the end of the month.02:25:57we’ll be handing you a fang.
Temerity
02:26:00He already does kind of brim at that a little bit.02:26:07Uh, big, big.02:26:09smile grows on her face.02:26:13as she02:26:14She nods and…02:26:16uh,02:26:18as well.02:26:20I hope I prove that true.
Dungeon Master
02:26:24um,02:26:25She kind of like…02:26:27grabs, grabs, uh, grab some food and a drink and she sits down and starts eating.02:26:32eating.02:26:33Um,02:26:34motions. So if you, if you want to join her, you’re welcome to.
Temerity
02:26:39Oh, absolutely.02:26:41- Give up the chance to eat with a Dragoon?02:26:43Hell no.02:26:46Yeah, Demerini will use side-by-side with Larnas.
Dungeon Master
02:26:52Yeah.02:26:53If you don’t say anything else, then she does just finish her food in silence and then go back to…02:27:01Um,02:27:02Go back to the train.
Temerity
02:27:02Temerity.02:27:04want so bad. Well, now,02:27:08has two people that02:27:09She so badly wants to ask about fucking…02:27:17Fuck, what’s it called again?02:27:19Not pacification, purification.
Dungeon Master
02:27:19purification.02:27:20Yeah.
Temerity
02:27:21Purification.02:27:22Wants to ask about purification, but…02:27:24I feel like even asking that question will get02:27:27her in trouble.
Dungeon Master
02:27:29There’s only one way to find out.
Temerity
02:27:30Oh.02:27:31That’s true.02:27:32Um…02:27:34Mm.
Hazel
02:27:35You just got to position it being like,02:27:37And like, yo, I’ve always been curious.02:27:38So what happened?02:27:39What really happened?
Temerity
02:27:40I’m sorry.
Hazel
02:27:41Beach dogs, I get it.
Temerity
02:27:43those mage dogs
Hazel
02:27:46- Those animals.
Temerity
02:27:46Um,02:27:50as they’re eating Demerides, like, so you…02:27:55So you used to go up to Kindle02:27:57Candlehold
Dungeon Master
02:27:59- Thank you.02:28:00her head a little. She says, I’ve been to Candlehold a few times. Um,02:28:04Dragoons do a lot of staging there.
Temerity
02:28:08Mm-hmm.02:28:16Okay.02:28:21I haven’t really heard much about it aside from02:28:25you know,02:28:26some people saying this or that about02:28:29mages being there. I didn’t realize Dragoons
Dungeon Master
02:28:30Mm-hmm.
Temerity
02:28:32uh,02:28:34Also went by there.
Dungeon Master
02:28:36Oh, yeah. It’s…02:28:41the is essentially the like forward operating.02:28:45uh,02:28:48operating base for the Dragoons02:28:51Um,02:28:55And yeah, it’s where they send the02:28:56the mages.02:29:01kind of…02:29:03Candlehold kind of02:29:04fulfills02:29:07several rules02:29:09um,02:29:10due to its position02:29:12the fact that it’s02:29:15a military fort first and foremost, and not also having to serve as a city infrastructure.
Temerity
02:29:24Mm-hmm.02:29:25Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:29:30But you’ll surely visit it if you become a dragoon.
Temerity
02:29:41Hey.02:29:42Yeah, that’s something I gathered.02:29:48- Okay, yeah, Temerity nods.02:29:50Temerity’s not gonna push.02:29:52their luck with02:29:54With Larnas on it.02:29:56I think that’s where…02:29:58Temerity feels shaded in that a little bit where it’s like, okay, maybe I’ll figure that out.02:30:03And
Dungeon Master
02:30:04Okie dokie.
Temerity
02:30:04Also probably doesn’t feel like Larnas would know more.02:30:08about specifics but she probably does that to mary just doesn’t think that
Dungeon Master
02:30:14I,02:30:14I…02:30:15I mean, that’s your call at what Temerity D thinks.02:30:17Of all the people you have asked, she is the most positioned to know more.
Temerity
02:30:22Yeah, but Mika would know even more.
Dungeon Master
02:30:27Maybe.
Temerity
02:30:27I would assume.
Hazel
02:30:29Atsune Mika.
Temerity
02:30:30I always get too worried about overplaying my hand.
Dungeon Master
02:30:31- Absolutely, Mika.
Iva
02:30:31Absolutely.02:30:32So,
Temerity
02:30:36- Ah.
Dungeon Master
02:30:36Sometimes that’s a thing that happens, but yeah, it’s your call.
Iva
02:30:38Don, overplay your hand.
Temerity
02:30:40Yeah, it’s very nice.
Iva
02:30:40In the first session, reveal that you’re a shape changer to the people that really should know that you’re that.
Temerity
02:30:43-02:30:46To meridie…
Hazel
02:30:47That was like third session.
Temerity
02:30:50is gonna02:30:56uh,02:30:58Ask.02:31:02laughs02:31:06Thank you.02:31:07God, Temerity just is not one for tact.02:31:09Okay, I think I got the way that Temerity would ask this.
Dungeon Master
02:31:10Thank you.
Temerity
02:31:12That wouldn’t get…02:31:14them in trouble.02:31:15uh,
Dungeon Master
02:31:15Okay.
Temerity
02:31:17Okay, so Temerity, like…02:31:20continues eating for a little bit after Larnas says that about Candlehold.02:31:25Uh, but02:31:26obviously like slows down a bit and kind of just like holds their food in02:31:31their hand for a moment and looks over. And it’s just like, is,02:31:36what they say about02:31:39Purification, true.02:31:40Do we…02:31:43Just kill them.
Dungeon Master
02:31:47turns her head and she kind of looks at you.02:31:52And she sighs.
Iva
02:31:53I have a bet going on.
Dungeon Master
02:31:55She sighs.02:31:57She says,02:32:00We’re not really supposed to talk about it with people who aren’t02:32:06Aaron Shaw: Are in the order or the dragoons.02:32:10Is this something you’re worried about, that we’re killing the mages?
Temerity
02:32:19.02:32:21Temerity kind of like just looks at Larnas for a moment and…02:32:26nods a little reluctantly, like, yeah.02:32:30Yeah.
Dungeon Master
02:32:32She pauses for a long moment.02:32:35um,02:32:38And if you want, you can give me an insight check.
Temerity
02:32:41All right.02:32:46Okay, that’s going to be an 18.
Dungeon Master
02:32:51D.02:32:52Looks.02:32:56like she is going back and forth with herself on something.02:33:01like almost like a genuine internal struggle02:33:05Um,02:33:08You’re not sure if she’s trying to come up with an answer or if it’s something else,02:33:13but she does look really troubled.02:33:16And then02:33:18She just doesn’t.02:33:19whatever was bothering her gone when she looks up and she says,02:33:25Listen.02:33:27There are some harsh realities of the kind of measures that have to be taken.02:33:32to fight the sorrow.02:33:34I think you understand that.02:33:36If what you say about your reason for being here is true, I think you must understand that.
Temerity
02:33:44Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:33:46of the02:33:47What they say is not true.02:33:50but it’s simple and it,02:33:52it,02:33:54it’s, it’s,02:33:56It does what it needs to do to deter people from pursuing magic,02:34:00to believe that we execute anyone who…02:34:05who uses it.02:34:07um,02:34:10I need your word, Temerity, that this does not leave this conversation.
Temerity
02:34:15Oh, fuck.02:34:18Uh,02:34:20Temerity gets a pretty serious face and nods.
Dungeon Master
02:34:24Are you being genuine in your, like, accepting of giving your word here?02:34:29Or are you lying?
Temerity
02:34:32Temerity, it’s being genuine in this moment.
Dungeon Master
02:34:35Okay.02:34:36She says…02:34:38No.02:34:39um,02:34:40the02:34:42the…02:34:43The first thing you have to understand is purification does not mean purification of the mage.02:34:49means purification of the Silver Vale.02:34:52um,02:34:53We have no means of removing magic. If we did, that would make things a lot easier. But we also can’t just execute every child born with a natural inclination from magic. That would be cruel. But even more importantly, it would be wasteful.02:35:10um,02:35:12I guess the closest word…02:35:15you could use for it is mages are conscripted.02:35:22They’re given a choice.02:35:23to fight the sorrow with everything they have.02:35:27And those that accept02:35:31they don’t get rank or title.02:35:33Um,02:35:34but they fight alongside the Order of the Lantern02:35:37And even from time to time, the dragoons…02:35:41beyond the borders when it is necessary to do so.02:35:50um,02:35:51mages who don’t accept conscription are02:35:57Well,02:35:58In the fight against the sorrow, you cannot take its side.02:36:03Magic is dangerous. It does…02:36:09hasten the sorrow.02:36:11But,02:36:12if applied correctly, it can be a weapon against it.02:36:15And,02:36:16we can’t turn away weapons that are willing to be wielded.
Temerity
02:36:25OK.02:36:25Um,02:36:28That makes.02:36:29That makes sense.
Dungeon Master
02:36:34I’ve met one or two02:36:36You have to understand, Temerity, magic is incredibly rare.02:36:40There’s a reason why we don’t bother to correct the record.02:36:43There are many reasons, one of which is there aren’t many mages.02:36:46I’ve met one or two in the entire time I’ve served…02:36:50as a dragoon.02:36:52Both of them were02:36:54were loyal comrades who02:36:57of.02:36:58And she stops.02:37:00and02:37:01kind of trails off.02:37:03um,02:37:06and sits there for a good 20 seconds if you don’t say anything.
Temerity
02:37:13Uh…02:37:17Yeah, no, Temerity doesn’t say it. Temerity is like,02:37:21Just kind of like, holy shit, I’m getting answers.
Iva
02:37:24laughter
Dungeon Master
02:37:24Hello.02:37:25After that pause, she shakes her head really hard.02:37:28And she says, the two I met were both loyal comrades.02:37:34fought the, um,02:37:38who fought the sorrow02:37:39in its home with as much fervor as any dragoon.02:37:46And that’s all I can say about it until you are…02:37:50are one of us.
Temerity
02:37:54uh,02:37:55Thank you.02:37:56Ah.
Dungeon Master
02:37:57Yes.
Temerity
02:37:58That’s…02:37:59That’s…02:38:00more of an answer than I’ve gotten before.
Dungeon Master
02:38:03Um,02:38:04I…02:38:08I shouldn’t have told you any of it, but I…02:38:10I could see that it was, when you asked,02:38:13it was eating at you.02:38:14this idea that02:38:16we would execute people for something like that without giving them a chance to02:38:23to offset the danger they pose.02:38:26And I02:38:28I don’t want that to be why02:38:30We lose you.02:38:31you have02:38:32uh,02:38:33an incredibly bright future in the dragoons if you continue on this path.
Temerity
02:38:41uh,02:38:45Hehehehe.02:38:48- Temerity.02:38:50That was so much to eat.02:38:52Uh…
Dungeon Master
02:38:52Thank you.
Temerity
02:38:56laughs02:38:57Temerity smiles. No. Temerity…02:39:03Just said that she won’t tell me anymore.02:39:06Samaritan wants to know what happens to the ones that say no, I don’t want to fight with you guys.02:39:12I assume we probably just kill them.
Iva
02:39:12She did tell you that.02:39:15Yeah.
Temerity
02:39:15She didn’t though.
Iva
02:39:17She insinuated that really hard.
Temerity
02:39:19She insinuated.
Luma
02:39:19She said it without saying it.
Iva
02:39:20sad music
Temerity
02:39:22But with things how they are, it could be so much worse than just killing them.
Dungeon Master
02:39:27I’m sorry.
Temerity
02:39:27It could be something so much worse.
Hazel
02:39:29- Blue.02:39:30The specific02:39:33Yeah, the specific wording was like, you can’t take sides with the Sorrow.02:39:36Maybe they’re just like…02:39:38you get hit with a Geass.02:39:40Hitler’s a bit like…
Temerity
02:39:40Yeah, they get a different spellcaster to come in and manipulate you.
Rhysaene
02:39:41Yeah.
Luma
02:39:46mind control.
Temerity
02:39:47Uh,
Rhysaene
02:39:47Yes. The wasteful was such a good word choice there because it’s like there’s the implied like02:39:54craziness.
Temerity
02:39:54Mm-hmm.02:39:57Ah…
Rhysaene
02:39:58Yeah, we used you as a battery to fight the sorrow.
Luma
02:39:58It’s because, you know,02:40:00It’s because of the implication.02:40:02- Yeah.
Temerity
02:40:03Hehehehe.
Dungeon Master
02:40:03Thank you.
Hazel
02:40:03Yeah.
Iva
02:40:05We actually…
Luma
02:40:06Yeah.
Iva
02:40:06We actually gather a thousand mages every day.
Rhysaene
02:40:06Thank you.
Iva
02:40:12and feed them to Bahamut.
Luma
02:40:13feed them to one sleeping man02:40:16on a chair.
Iva
02:40:16Yeah.
Luma
02:40:17One sleepy dragon on a chair.
Iva
02:40:18Yeah.
Dungeon Master
02:40:18Thanks.
Iva
02:40:19Thank you.02:40:19- Okay.
Dungeon Master
02:40:20Seeing that you’re still dancing around02:40:23that this concept, this reveal, and that02:40:28that you maybe are interested in asking more questions. She kind of02:40:35kind of looks at you and she says, I wish I could02:40:37tell you how important it is02:40:40how necessary each and everything we do.02:40:43- How,02:40:45Have you ever seen a Sorrowsworn?02:40:48Have you ever fought one?
Temerity
02:40:49I’m ready.02:40:51Mm-hmm.02:40:52Uh…02:40:53Temerity should not say yes.02:40:56But…02:40:59Temerity will say, will nod.02:41:01laughs02:41:04at that question.
Dungeon Master
02:41:07SARS-CoV-2.
Temerity
02:41:07Like, yeah.
Dungeon Master
02:41:09are,02:41:10dangerous. Physically, they are strong, they are resilient.02:41:15uh,02:41:16your average night02:41:20your average trained knight would have trouble02:41:23dealing with them and would probably fall to one02:41:27But we train the purifiers of the Order of the Lantern to fight these creatures specifically.02:41:33They wield the Blessing of the Silver Flame against them, bypassing their02:41:39their corrupted sorrowful regeneration,02:41:43they’re trained with mental resolve to,02:41:46endure these strange, um,02:41:50psychological, um,02:41:53attacks these horrors can unleash upon02:41:57um,02:42:02uh,02:42:03people on innocent people who might fold before them02:42:08A purifier can fight a Sorrowsworn.02:42:11um,02:42:12most sorrowsworn02:42:14could not stand up to the might of a single purifier of the Order of the Lantern.02:42:21home02:42:24A Sorrowsworn is nowhere near the worst thing the Sorrow has to offer.02:42:29and I cannot say more until you are sworn in,02:42:32but that is what the dragoons are for,02:42:33and that is why these desperate measures are necessary.02:42:37If a Sorrowsworn02:42:39If you look at Asaro Sworn and think,02:42:42This is a danger worth…02:42:45fighting against to protect others from02:42:47um,02:42:49imagine…02:42:51something02:42:52infinitely worse.02:42:54and realize that is the true enemy.
Temerity
02:42:57Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:42:59So,02:43:03I won’t pretend like any of this is…02:43:06ideal, but it is all necessary.
Temerity
02:43:11Fuck02:43:13Uh,
Dungeon Master
02:43:16And you could give me, if you would like, an insight check.
Temerity
02:43:22Who are we?
Dungeon Master
02:43:23but it will be a very difficult insight check.
Temerity
02:43:31Sorry, I was going to say a joke.02:43:33I was going to be like, can I rage so that I can get advantage with primal knowledge?02:43:39Oh, that didn’t apply for insight.
Dungeon Master
02:43:41you want to,
Temerity
02:43:42Never mind.02:43:42But no, no, that was a joke.02:43:45Anyways, my total…02:43:47is a 17.
Dungeon Master
02:43:50Um,02:43:50She is speaking with conviction and a genuine, like…02:43:56A genuine belief that…02:44:00one, that there are things much worse than Sorrowsworn out there,02:44:04and two, that everything that they do is necessary for,
Temerity
02:44:11All right.02:44:12Uh,02:44:14Right, Temerity will accept these answers.02:44:17It’s much more than…02:44:19they’ve ever gotten before.
Dungeon Master
02:44:20Mm-hmm.
Temerity
02:44:22And, uh,02:44:25We’ll thank Larnas for02:44:27for divulging what all02:44:29what all she has.02:44:36if the merity was a different character,02:44:38I might also branch off and be like,02:44:40why,02:44:40why are you so keen in me?02:44:41But merity,
Dungeon Master
02:44:42Mm-hmm.
Temerity
02:44:43Temerity is like,02:44:44no,02:44:44I get it.02:44:45Uh,
Dungeon Master
02:44:49Yeah, I am that cool.
Temerity
02:44:51Yeah.
Rhysaene
02:44:51I love that guy.
Temerity
02:44:52laughs02:44:58But that would…02:44:59Yeah, Temerity will go back to…02:45:02Go back to eating.
Dungeon Master
02:45:03You finish eating, the day continues with more standard training and ends again.02:45:10in the afternoon.
Temerity
02:45:12All right.02:45:14- Right.02:45:18Where is everybody now?02:45:21at this02:45:22point in time.
Dungeon Master
02:45:22That’s a good question.02:45:24um,02:45:26I think the only way to find that out is to cut back to them.
Temerity
02:45:29Yep.
Dungeon Master
02:45:31And I think we have to wait for Mariah to be right back.
Rhysaene
02:45:35Oh.02:45:38Dude, that love bomb is crazy.
Temerity
02:45:42Hee hee hee.
Dungeon Master
02:45:45But…
Temerity
02:45:46- God.02:45:49I don’t know.02:45:51how this is going to play out if Temerity actually does join the Dragoons.
Luma
02:45:56I absolutely see Temerity trying to convince the party to like,02:46:00turn themselves in to get conscripted.02:46:02It’s like, no, no, no, they’re not going to kill you.02:46:03They’re just going to conscript you.
Temerity
02:46:05Hehehehe.
Iva
02:46:05Don’t worry, don’t worry.
Luma
02:46:06now.
Dungeon Master
02:46:06Yes, we can fight the sorrow together.
Temerity
02:46:08Temerity for sure knows that at least…
Iva
02:46:09It’s…
Luma
02:46:09But…
Temerity
02:46:14Hazel wouldn’t.02:46:15And suspects nobody else would.
Iva
02:46:16And you…
Luma
02:46:18Luma’s gonna get conscripted for a second time in this campaign.
Iva
02:46:18- Man.
Temerity
02:46:22you
Dungeon Master
02:46:23Yeah, but this is actual conscription.02:46:25This isn’t…
Luma
02:46:25Bro, she’s gonna end up with a fucking, like,02:46:28bomb collar on her neck.
Temerity
02:46:29Yeah.
Iva
02:46:29Sends us to the deep roads and says, fight till you die.
Rhysaene
02:46:32Yeah.
Temerity
02:46:33laughs
Dungeon Master
02:46:36Olivia sitting here being like the degree to which the dragoons are just gray wardens grows closer day by day.
Temerity
02:46:37- Yeah.02:46:42Uh-huh.
Rhysaene
02:46:44Oh,
Luma
02:46:44It’s…
Temerity
02:46:44Uh,02:46:45How can a hold is the circle?
Rhysaene
02:46:46’Cause I, yeah, ’cause that’s where the,02:46:50Because you were talking about it earlier, like in the earlier days of when we were getting together for the campaign of like…02:46:57It was like, no, there’s a reason why they do like these things like that.02:47:00And like the language that you use, like wasteful and like,
Dungeon Master
02:47:04Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
02:47:05Oh, we wouldn’t like just do that. Like, it’s so like,02:47:08Yeah, it’s a good way to do the nuance of it rather than like…
Temerity
02:47:12Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:47:12Oh yeah.
Temerity
02:47:14I like it.
Rhysaene
02:47:15Thank you.
Temerity
02:47:18God.02:47:21Despite having more answers,02:47:23Temerity feels comforted knowing that we aren’t just, like, killing little kids,02:47:27but also, like…02:47:29to me he doesn’t know what all is entailed with conscription and what happens when somebody says no or like what conscription means for like02:47:37an eight year old kid who found out that they’re magical.
Dungeon Master
02:47:38True.
Iva
02:47:39Tremertes.
Temerity
02:47:40Um,
Iva
02:47:41Trying so hard to be like, no, no, no, it’s still okay, I swear, it’s still okay.
Rhysaene
02:47:46Oh.
Temerity
02:47:46Yeah.
Hazel
02:47:46This is very Warhammer fantasy-esque, the way that they treat their majors.
Temerity
02:47:52Yeah.
Dungeon Master
02:47:55Um,
Luma
02:47:55funny that Temerity is okay with that.02:47:57At least they’re not dying. It’s like, no,02:47:59they’re just taking away their freedom and their life as it is.02:48:01They might as well be dead.
Temerity
02:48:02No, Temerity’s not…
Luma
02:48:02Like,02:48:03They’re being thrown into literal nightmares. It’s like, oh no, it’s good. As long as they’re not being killed by the people, they’re being killed by the Zoro Sword. That’s fine.
Temerity
02:48:12Hehehehe.
Luma
02:48:12- Okay.
Hazel
02:48:13Yeah.02:48:13It’s an enslavement.02:48:16as a human one.
Luma
02:48:16It’s like, yeah, no.
Temerity
02:48:17Um, it’s,
Luma
02:48:18But…02:48:18Yeah.
Temerity
02:48:19It’s something that Temerity isn’t okay with.
Luma
02:48:19The fucking…
Temerity
02:48:21For sure.
Luma
02:48:22The Psybot aren’t killing him directly, but throwing them at the vicious monstrosity is still murder by proxy.
Temerity
02:48:28Hee hee hee hee hee hee.
Luma
02:48:29- Yeah.
Iva
02:48:30It’s okay.
Dungeon Master
02:48:30It.
Iva
02:48:30They want…02:48:31The children crave the battlefield.
Luma
02:48:34I think.
Temerity
02:48:34True.
Dungeon Master
02:48:35I,
Luma
02:48:35Yeah.
Dungeon Master
02:48:35I guess it does come down to two core questions.02:48:40The first being, is it true that…02:48:43Is everything they say about the things around conscription true?02:48:47Yeah.02:48:48Is magic genuinely like in danger of making the sorrows worse?02:48:53Um,02:48:54And if so, is like conscription like a way around that?02:48:58And the second question is, even if it’s all true, does that matter?02:49:03Is it still like…02:49:05Is there another alternative or not?02:49:07Or do we have to just kind of like tank the repercussions of having like mages running around making the sorrow worse?
Temerity
02:49:08Uh…
Luma
02:49:14Yeah.
Hazel
02:49:14I mean, also, the idea of…02:49:17It’s kind of interesting because02:49:20Conscription in general is also kind of the fate that Temerity has resigned themselves to.
Dungeon Master
02:49:26True.
Temerity
02:49:26Uh…
Hazel
02:49:26Temerity has implicated, has kind of already put this expectation of a dehumanized weapon onto themselves.
Rhysaene
02:49:27Yeah.
Luma
02:49:35True.
Dungeon Master
02:49:35Absolutely.
Hazel
02:49:35So it’s kind of,02:49:36It’s kind of interesting that this is what happens to mages.
Rhysaene
02:49:41- So I’m already in the let’s take ibuprofen pose,
Temerity
02:49:41laughs
Luma
02:49:41it.
Rhysaene
02:49:46like join me.
Luma
02:49:47- Thank you.
Temerity
02:49:49Yeah.
Luma
02:49:49Yeah.
Hazel
02:49:49Let’s go kill ourselves to preserve the dying light together.
Temerity
02:49:55I’ll see you next time.
Dungeon Master
02:49:55Yeah.
Temerity
02:49:56I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
02:49:57Um,02:49:58Yeah, no, it
Luma
02:49:59Thank you.
Dungeon Master
02:50:00The fact that they’re not killing him does not mean it’s not fucked and the question becomes02:50:05How fucked is it?02:50:05And is there…02:50:07Is there a less fucked option?
Temerity
02:50:10Um,
Dungeon Master
02:50:11Um,
Temerity
02:50:12And like,02:50:13Oh.
Dungeon Master
02:50:13And if there’s not, do we deserve to do, do the people of Argentum deserve to survive?02:50:21like,
Temerity
02:50:22Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:50:22If this is the only way, is it okay to do it?02:50:25I don’t know.
Temerity
02:50:26Fuck, what’s that book called?
Dungeon Master
02:50:28the ones who walk away from
Temerity
02:50:30Yeah, the ones who walk away.
Dungeon Master
02:50:31on that list.
Hazel
02:50:32once.02:50:33The ones who walk away from Omelas.
Dungeon Master
02:50:36Um,02:50:38Anyway,02:50:39We cut back to the immediate aftermath of the scene.
Luma
02:50:44Hee hee hoo hoo.
Dungeon Master
02:50:44seen in the alley
Temerity
02:50:45Yes.
Dungeon Master
02:50:46You guys have just.
Luma
02:50:47It’s all happy over here.
Dungeon Master
02:50:49You guys have decided to let go the…02:50:53who you learned was a hired stalker hired by Daisy, presumably,02:50:59to keep tabs on you, paying them to fuck off and not bother you anymore.
Iva
02:51:08A classic, this will never bite us in the ass.
Rhysaene
02:51:08- I did remove those from my inventory.
Dungeon Master
02:51:08um,
Rhysaene
02:51:11Sorry.
Dungeon Master
02:51:11Yeah.02:51:15Um,02:51:17What are you all doing from here?02:51:19At this point, it’s still fairly early in the day.02:51:22Temerity is still Dragoon training.02:51:27You’re out in the middle of an alleyway.
Luma
02:51:31I’ll walk up to everybody else and rejoin them.
Dungeon Master
02:51:35Yeah.
Hazel
02:51:37Oh, right. We were doing something, weren’t we?
Rhysaene
02:51:41Yeah.
Hazel
02:51:42Oh, yes, your theater.02:51:45Oh, I should have stayed a kid.02:51:46Wait, I am still a cat.02:51:48Okay, I need to stay as a cat.
Rhysaene
02:51:51A wrist of steel.02:51:53some jest to make sure that02:51:58Hazel doesn’t say any words out loud.
Hazel
02:52:00RAAAAP!
Dungeon Master
02:52:01How…02:52:02How long are you able to be a cat?
Hazel
02:52:05uh,02:52:07I believe it’s an hour, but let me double check.02:52:12because I am, as much as I have read the, the, the,02:52:16The D&D 2024 rules for Wild Shape, I have a hard time internalizing that shit.
Luma
02:52:21He’s here.
Dungeon Master
02:52:21Yeah.
Hazel
02:52:21Number of hours equal to half my druid level. I’m bing chilling.02:52:26That’s three hours or two hours, I guess.
Dungeon Master
02:52:26Um,
Luma
02:52:28Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:52:30If history bears out to Temerity, you’ll probably be back in like an hour or at the very least, she’ll be done with her training in like an hour.
Hazel
02:52:38Also,
Luma
02:52:38Do we want to…02:52:41- Yeah.
Hazel
02:52:41Sorry.02:52:42I was just going to say, sorry.
Luma
02:52:42Nope, go for it.
Hazel
02:52:44Aev, did you say that wrist shoves Hazel into her chest?
Rhysaene
02:52:48No, like, you know, like when you just like, from like the neck, like,
Hazel
02:52:52Oh, okay. Because I was like, if that’s
Luma
02:52:53No, you get a face full of Teddy.
Hazel
02:52:55I was gonna say, if that’s the case, then Hazel will not be complaining. But I mean, she’ll be like,
Luma
02:52:55I’ll see you next time.
Rhysaene
02:52:55- Just please.02:52:58Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Luma
02:52:58You’re welcome.
Rhysaene
02:53:01Oh.
Hazel
02:53:05uh,02:53:07Yeah, no, Hazel’s just chilling.02:53:09She hasn’t…02:53:11- Thank you.02:53:12to02:53:13to really worry about anything.02:53:15I imagine when you02:53:17When we need to, she’ll hop into the hat.
Dungeon Master
02:53:24ahead.
Rhysaene
02:53:25Aww.
Hazel
02:53:27Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
02:53:27Um,02:53:28Hazel’s a cat.02:53:29Y’all are together.02:53:31um,02:53:31what would you like to do?
Luma
02:53:34I’ll wake up.
Rhysaene
02:53:34- It’s a bunch of fun to me already.02:53:36at least find a place to hang out until Temerity gets back
Luma
02:53:43I can go back to your apartment.
Rhysaene
02:53:46- Yeah, that’s okay.
Luma
02:53:48there.
Dungeon Master
02:53:49Yeah.02:53:51It’s just right up the street.
Hazel
02:53:56Because druids can speak in wild shape now, anytime someone transforms into a cat specifically, they gain a Brooklyn accent.
Temerity
02:54:04Hee hee hee.
Luma
02:54:04Okay.
Hazel
02:54:05They’d be like, “Hey Dan, we’re gonna catch the Pikachu!”
Temerity
02:54:08Nive.
Iva
02:54:11Makes sense to me.
Dungeon Master
02:54:16gonna catch the Pikachu.02:54:23you all head back to Rhys’s apartment.
Rhysaene
02:54:37Uh, Rhys is very much like02:54:41She doesn’t say much the whole time. Or she doesn’t say anything the whole time.02:54:46She just…02:54:47There’s one of the covers when she gets in02:54:49for me.02:54:50Appointment is so02:54:53That’s probably some like wine.02:54:54I guess02:54:55would definitely be good
Dungeon Master
02:54:55Yeah.
Rhysaene
02:54:56Yeah.02:54:57She’ll take out a gloss and just pull one for herself.
Luma
02:55:01Yeah.
Hazel
02:55:01Can you pour a little bowl for Hazel?
Rhysaene
02:55:05- Just hazel, just hazel, just hazel, pour it like a bowl or something.
Hazel
02:55:10Uh…02:55:11there.
Rhysaene
02:55:11Yeah.
Hazel
02:55:12I want to hit me.
Rhysaene
02:55:14- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
02:55:14Okay.
Luma
02:55:14Yeah.
Rhysaene
02:55:17Strong ass red wine.
Hazel
02:55:20Mm-hmm.02:55:21Hazel will just sit on anyone’s lap.02:55:23Anyone who’s…02:55:25Well, let’s see.02:55:27Well,02:55:28Rhys doesn’t have a lot.02:55:29kind of
Dungeon Master
02:55:31Thanks, Sue.
Rhysaene
02:55:32- She dances, she dances.
Hazel
02:55:32I’ll roll a d4.
Luma
02:55:35home.02:55:36Mm-hmm.
Hazel
02:55:37One, Rhys. Two, Luma. Three, Iva. Four, she just sits on the table.
Rhysaene
02:55:40Thank you.
Luma
02:55:43Beepo.
Hazel
02:55:45Yeah, four people.
Luma
02:55:47Yeah.
Hazel
02:55:47Um,02:55:48Hehehehe02:55:49Two, she’s on Luma.
Luma
02:55:53Luma is…02:55:56like02:55:56trying to hold in her excitement. Not for the cat part. The cat part’s awesome. But she’s trying to hold in her excitement because a ritual worked.
Hazel
02:55:59He…
Luma
02:56:02And she’s clearly riding that high right now.02:56:06The scroll was a success.
Rhysaene
02:56:08That’s really cute.02:56:11Oh, ho, ho, ho, ho.
Luma
02:56:16She’s doing that thing where she’s trying to not, like, bring attention to it, but keeps, like, mentioning shit related to that, like, the theater and stuff like that.02:56:22Like, clearly, like, wanting…
Hazel
02:56:23Mm-hmm.02:56:24Oh.
Luma
02:56:24people to acknowledge that fact.02:56:26- Yeah.
Hazel
02:56:32Oh.02:56:35Right.02:56:36We know what Daisy looks like. We can always do that again and find her.
Luma
02:56:41Ho.
Hazel
02:56:43And
Iva
02:56:44I know what the other guy looks like, too.
Hazel
02:56:48laughs02:56:49Luckily, I don’t believe you will be a problem anymore.02:56:57Though you never know with those types.
Luma
02:56:57I’m,02:57:00I’m a little worried that he might02:57:04turn,02:57:04resin for magic use.
Hazel
02:57:07Well,02:57:08If he does.02:57:11I’ll be sure that that’s the last thing that he does.
Temerity
02:57:15- Yeah.
Rhysaene
02:57:18Miss smiles.
Hazel
02:57:18Gotta make her have a slightly higher voice because she’s tiny.02:57:22Yeah, baby, that’s me.
Luma
02:57:24- Yeah.
Iva
02:57:27thought she needed a Boston accent.
Luma
02:57:27Sound like Meowth?
Hazel
02:57:29Oh, okay.02:57:31laughs02:57:32We’re going to catch Pikachu. We’re going to catch that dirty guy we paint off and we’re going to whack him.02:57:39-
Iva
02:57:39Well, where is she?
Luma
02:57:44Oh, no.
Dungeon Master
02:57:46Um,
Hazel
02:57:46I mean, that was just I not either that was just IV’s accent in Bruce’s Pathfinder game.
Dungeon Master
02:57:51Okay.
Iva
02:57:52for it.
Temerity
02:57:53Hehehehe.
Dungeon Master
02:57:54um,02:57:56About an hour passes at Rhys’s and Temerity.02:57:59Temerity, that’s when you…02:58:01your training ends, you sense that they are all at Rhys’s apartment.
Temerity
02:58:05All right. Yeah. To marry you, we’ll,02:58:07We’ll walk on in.02:58:10uh,02:58:12Hehehehe.02:58:16A changed person.
Dungeon Master
02:58:21I will never pass up an opportunity to reinforce Temerity’s delusions of grandeur at every opportunity.
Temerity
02:58:21No.02:58:27laughs
Luma
02:58:28of grandeur.
Hazel
02:58:30uh, Temerity, a cat hops off the table and, and walks over to, to you.02:58:36looks up at you.
Temerity
02:58:38Oh, uh,02:58:40Hello.02:58:41ready to go.
Hazel
02:58:41- Yes.
Temerity
02:58:41So like,02:58:42Oh.02:58:43Thank you.
Hazel
02:58:43No, no, no, she doesn’t.
Temerity
02:58:45yeah no if Temerity sees a cat walk up to them they’re gonna try and like02:58:51reach down to the cats,02:58:53snip them and pet them.
Hazel
02:58:59Yeah, yeah. Hazel will let you pet her and then go…02:59:02Heh.02:59:03laughs
Temerity
02:59:04They literally just go, huh?02:59:05Like…
Rhysaene
02:59:06- -
Hazel
02:59:06Just be like, “Haha, you pet me, idiot.”
Luma
02:59:09Yeah.
Iva

Luma
02:59:11- Yeah.
Temerity
02:59:12I.

Temerity
02:59:13I didn’t realize you could turn small.02:59:17-
Luma
02:59:21achieve.
Hazel
02:59:21She is.
Temerity
02:59:21Ha ha ha.02:59:23Yeah.
Hazel
02:59:24You’re lucky that cats can’t emote, really, or like they can’t hit the emote wheel as good as a person can.
Rhysaene
02:59:25- Cool.
Temerity
02:59:30-02:59:31Ha ha ha.02:59:33Um,02:59:37Anything happened while I was gone?02:59:38Temerity says you’re dressing like the room.02:59:41Yeah.02:59:41Yeah.
Hazel
02:59:42but…02:59:44Dad’s there.
Temerity
02:59:47laughs
Hazel
02:59:47Oh, boy!
Iva
02:59:47I think it goes,02:59:49We jumped the guy in an alley.
Temerity
02:59:51What?02:59:52laughs
Iva
02:59:55He was stalking us.
Rhysaene
02:59:55Ah,02:59:56That Lady Daisy was…02:59:58paying someone to stop me
Temerity
03:00:01Oh.
Rhysaene
03:00:01- Yeah.
Temerity
03:00:03um,03:00:04But you…03:00:05You guys got them, right? What happened?
Rhysaene
03:00:06Thank you.
Iva
03:00:08Yeah, we took care of it, Temerity. Don’t worry.
Temerity
03:00:13I…03:00:16Did you kill him?
Iva
03:00:19God, no! What do you think we are, monsters?
Rhysaene
03:00:20No, no, no, no, we didn’t kill him.03:00:24I just…03:00:27I try to be scary.
Temerity
03:00:29Nah.
Iva
03:00:29You were scary.
Temerity
03:00:29Okay.
Iva
03:00:30If you put a…03:00:32put whatever you did to his brain03:00:35in my brain. I’d be scared.
Temerity
03:00:36Wait.03:00:38You used magic.
Rhysaene
03:00:42I don’t think it’s like he would03:00:44He would be scared enough.
Temerity
03:00:47Hmm.03:00:48Yeah.
Rhysaene
03:00:49Bye.
Hazel
03:00:49to Mayor Dean.
Temerity
03:00:51Ah.
Hazel

Temerity
03:00:53laughter
Rhysaene
03:00:54laughter
Temerity
03:00:58Oh,03:00:59Oh, yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:01:01What would you do if one day your cat just started talking?
Temerity
03:01:04laughter
Hazel
03:01:04laughter
Iva
03:01:04You know, sometimes Chasta walks up and goes, meh, and expects to be picked up, so…
Temerity
03:01:09I think
Hazel
03:01:10Well, it’s like, you know, Hazel’s like, I can’t be talking like this while on the, it’s unfair. Yeah, it’s unfair. I’m not on equal level.
Iva
03:01:10Yeah.
Temerity

Luma
03:04:41Whoops.
Temerity
03:04:44uh

Hazel
03:05:39Oh.
Luma
03:05:40I don’t know if you like the hat or not.03:05:41I feel like it’s probably kind of stuffy in there.03:05:42I should make an air hole.
Hazel
03:05:44Hehehehe.
Temerity
03:05:44I don’t know.
Hazel
03:05:46It reminds me.
Luma

Rhysaene
03:08:23Mm-hmm.03:08:26Um…03:08:30I have a03:08:31I have a question.
Dungeon Master
03:08:33Yeah.
Rhysaene
03:08:34- What?03:08:36Do people know that Lafio is dead?
Dungeon Master
03:08:41Um…
Rhysaene
03:08:42- Or at least like in her circles or anything?
Dungeon Master
03:08:48Not explicitly unless you’ve told them.03:08:52A lot of people might assume that because she just stopped showing up to things.
Rhysaene
03:08:52Mm.
Dungeon Master
03:08:56Um,03:08:57But.03:08:59Of the people you’ve talked to that were like old mutual friends and stuff,03:09:03There wasn’t like an obituary for her or anything like that.03:09:07So people assume it maybe, or they assume she fucked off.03:09:12um,03:09:13or left03:09:14for like one of the little towns or something, but only, the only,03:09:19person who could have told them for sure that she died that, like, that was a mutual.03:09:24A friend was you.
Rhysaene
03:09:26Right. Okay.03:09:27That’s fair.
Dungeon Master
03:09:32And that’s probably an experience you’ve had is talking to like a mutual friend and them being like, oh, I haven’t seen Lathiel in months.03:09:39How’s she doing?
Rhysaene
03:09:41Mm-hmm.
Iva
03:09:43And you hit them with a, they’re dead.03:09:44I killed him.

Rhysaene
03:18:23Right.03:18:27Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
03:18:31But you’ve met her, you’ve talked to her, and presumably were on good terms with her yourself.
Rhysaene
03:18:37Mm-hmm.03:18:38Okay.
Dungeon Master
03:18:38These are not strangers to you, even though you don’t
Rhysaene
03:18:41Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:18:42You don’t know most of them that well.03:18:44You do know all of them.
Rhysaene
03:18:47Yeah.03:18:48Okay.
Luma
03:18:48They were roommates.
Rhysaene
03:18:49I think I’ll…03:18:50.03:18:52I’ll approach…03:18:55Um,03:18:57Yeah, I’ll purchase one of them.03:18:59Um,
Hazel
03:19:00Hazel’s gonna just like find a seat because the acoustics in here make her incredibly uncomfortable.
Dungeon Master
03:19:00Um,
Hazel
03:19:07Thank you.
Temerity
03:19:07Okay.
Dungeon Master
03:19:08You head up… Anyone can feel free to move on the map in the revealed areas.03:19:14You head up.
Hazel
03:19:15like miss pretty.03:19:16Second.
Dungeon Master
03:19:17Um,03:19:18the03:19:19the03:19:21no one really says anything until you like head up on stage, at which point, um,03:19:25they’re kind of in the middle of not even rehearsal, but like,03:19:28just like preparation.03:19:30So it’s not really a big deal that someone comes up on stage.03:19:33They, you kind of get ignored except by Sera,03:19:37who looks up at you and she says, “Rhasane?”03:19:40We’re sane!03:19:42My goodness.
Rhysaene
03:19:42Thank you.03:19:43Ah, sorry to bother you.03:19:45I didn’t mean, I don’t want to.
Dungeon Master
03:19:47No.
Rhysaene
03:19:47Cause of trouble.
Dungeon Master
03:19:48No, no, it’s never a bother.03:19:49She runs over and she, like, hugs you.
Rhysaene
03:19:52Au!03:19:53They’ll hug her back.
Hazel
03:19:54Hazel reaches for the bow and then
Dungeon Master
03:19:55Um,
Hazel
03:19:57realizes, oh, it’s a hug. It’s a hug.
Rhysaene
03:19:58-
Temerity
03:19:58laughter
Iva
03:19:59“Ha, form of affection!”
Hazel
03:19:59-
Dungeon Master
03:19:59Oh.
Rhysaene
03:19:59Look.
Dungeon Master
03:20:00It’s been ages.03:20:02It’s been ages since you’ve been to a show. How are you doing?
Rhysaene
03:20:06and03:20:08Well, I’m okay. I just…03:20:11You mind if we have…03:20:13Can we?03:20:14I don’t want to interrupt nothing.03:20:15Is that okay, Aev?
Dungeon Master
03:20:17- Oh!03:20:19Yeah, you’re not interrupting.03:20:20This isn’t even like an official rehearsal,03:20:23but if you want to talk a little more privately,03:20:26we can go to the…03:20:28the back or maybe one of the dressing rooms or something.
Rhysaene
03:20:32Yeah, I would love to. Thank you.
Dungeon Master
03:20:35uh,
Rhysaene
03:20:38It’s good to see you.
Dungeon Master
03:20:41um,03:20:43She, she nods, this is so good to see you.03:20:47Um,03:20:48Yeah, let’s head to…03:20:50Oh, that’s the fog layer.
Rhysaene
03:20:52Mm-mm.
Dungeon Master
03:20:53Let’s head to
Iva
03:20:53Let’s head to the fog layer.
Dungeon Master
03:20:55Let’s head to one of the dressing rooms and she03:20:58Now I need the fog layer.03:21:05she opens a door to one of the larger dressing rooms in the back.03:21:11and invites you in.
Rhysaene
03:21:13Yeah.03:21:14I’ll go inside.
Dungeon Master
03:21:16The rest of you watch as Rhys and this half-elven woman kind of go around behind the scene backdrop.03:21:23and disappear from your view.
Hazel
03:21:26Are we certain that it’s okay that03:21:30there.03:21:31that03:21:32that she’s leaving us.
Luma
03:21:36Well,03:21:36If I’m entirely honest, I think it’s probably better for Rhys that she’s over there than us.
Dungeon Master
03:21:42Um,
Luma
03:21:42- Well, it looks around awkwardly like,03:21:43I don’t know what I’m supposed to be doing here.
Dungeon Master
03:21:45uh,
Temerity
03:21:45Hehehehe.
Dungeon Master
03:21:46The human man kind of looks up and he says…03:21:52Well, um,03:21:53I’m not usually open to the public for this kind of thing, but…03:21:58Friends of Hussein are welcome anytime.03:22:01uh,03:22:02Please.03:22:03Have a seat in the audience if you would like.
Luma
03:22:07Okay.
Temerity
03:22:07Okay.
Dungeon Master
03:22:07turn up.03:22:12And, you know, you can, if you want, you can wander around.03:22:17We’re not doing anything important at the moment.03:22:18Just don’t, you know, break anything.03:22:20Don’t touch anything without asking, that sort of thing.03:22:22Danella, the gnomish woman, kind of gets like a really sharp glare.03:22:27Yeah.03:22:28She glares at Cassius as she looks at all of you and she says don’t touch me03:22:32Anything without permission.
Temerity
03:22:34Hehehehe.
Luma
03:22:35All right.
Hazel
03:22:36-
Luma
03:22:36Can I touch?
Rhysaene
03:22:37- Ooh.
Luma
03:22:37this chair.
Dungeon Master
03:22:40Yes, yes, you can sit in those seats, but don’t touch any of the props.
Luma
03:22:44OK, can I touch this section of the floor?
Hazel
03:22:44Are dogs allowed as Sage03:22:46stands right next to her?
Iva
03:22:48Thank you.03:22:48-
Dungeon Master
03:22:49How unusual. Yes, your dog’s allowed. That’s fine.
Temerity
03:22:54laughs
Hazel
03:22:54Thank you. She’s better behaved than most people.
Dungeon Master
03:22:58I believe it.
Hazel
03:22:58She’s better behaved than her, and she points to Iva.
Luma
03:23:02All right.
Dungeon Master
03:23:02um,
Iva
03:23:03Iva goes, “Hey!”
Dungeon Master
03:23:03What?
Luma
03:23:03I…
Iva
03:23:05I just wanted to see…03:23:09That’s fair. I wanted to touch the props.
Hazel
03:23:11Yeah.03:23:13Yeah.
Temerity
03:23:13I’ll see you next time.
Rhysaene

Temerity
03:23:30I mean,
Hazel
03:23:31I was actually out here being Sage’s greatest PR.
Iva
03:23:32Have a ghost.03:23:35Yeah, I would go just so I know where’s the prop room so I can avoid it.
Dungeon Master
03:23:42If I see you on my stage,03:23:45I’ll have you…03:23:46dragged out of here.03:23:48and03:23:49Cassius kind of looks at her, he’s like,03:23:51We don’t.03:23:53I don’t have security right now. Don’t be…03:23:56Don’t be.
Hazel
03:23:56We’re doing this for
Dungeon Master
03:23:56I’m going to have to do the dragging.
Hazel
03:23:58Thank you.
Temerity
03:23:59laughs
Hazel
03:24:01No, no, no, no, no, no, Timberity will do the dragging if they need to.
Dungeon Master

Luma

Temerity
03:24:06laughs
Dungeon Master
03:24:07I, uh, Iados, it’s like03:24:09No, if any of them get rowdy,03:24:12He reaches to his side and draws a rapier, and it gleams in the candlelight of the footlights at the front of the stage.03:24:19um
Temerity
03:24:21Another dancing ring, right?
Dungeon Master
03:24:21if anyone causes…03:24:23If anyone causes trouble, I will remove them.03:24:26Um,
Hazel
03:24:27Surely that’s a prop.
Dungeon Master
03:24:28Give me a perception check.
Iva
03:24:28Can I incite if it’s a prop?
Dungeon Master
03:24:30You can, perception, if it’s a prop, you can incite his words instead.
Hazel
03:24:32Hehehehe.03:24:34Sure.
Dungeon Master
03:24:35You can do one or the other.
Hazel
03:24:37I mean, my insight and my perception are the same. So what is everyone else doing? Sorry.
Luma
03:24:37I’m enthralled by the performance.
Dungeon Master
03:24:40Oh, sorry.03:24:42What I list this.
Luma
03:24:43Luma’s enthralled by the performance.
Temerity

Hazel

Hazel
03:24:58It’s a 24 total.
Dungeon Master
03:25:00Um,
Temerity
03:25:00I am.
Dungeon Master
03:25:01Hazel and Temerity.03:25:03This is not a real rapier. This thing’s a prop.03:25:05It’s a nice looking prop, but it is absolutely blunted edge.
Hazel
03:25:09All right.
Dungeon Master
03:25:09And like a little weld point on the tip so it can’t stab you.03:25:15um,03:25:17Iva?03:25:18This guy means business.03:25:21He absolutely will kill you if you touch a prop.
Hazel

Temerity
03:25:38Hehehehe.
Hazel

Luma
03:25:40I like these people.
Dungeon Master
03:25:40Um,03:25:41Cassius says,03:25:42Iedo, stop showboating. We have to run lines.
Hazel
03:25:46I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
03:25:46Thank you.
Hazel
03:25:47Sorry.
Temerity
03:25:48Thank you.
Rhysaene
03:25:48- Woo-hoo!
Hazel

Iva
03:25:52Mm-hmm.
Hazel
03:25:52Yeah.
Iva

Hazel
03:25:59I just want to kill my ass.
Temerity
03:25:59- Yeah.
Iva
03:26:01What does man stab me to death with a rapier?
Temerity
03:26:01laughter
Dungeon Master
03:26:05Um.03:26:06Rhys, you are taken to one of the larger dressing rooms.03:26:09It’s got a couple benches, vanity mirrors, a little chair.
Rhysaene
03:26:09Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:26:13And Sera says…03:26:17I,03:26:17don’t want this hanging in the air, so I guess we’ll deal with the difficult thing first. It’s been03:26:24Over a year since we’ve heard from you or Lathiel,03:26:27Is she okay?03:26:29What’s…
Rhysaene
03:26:31Um,
Dungeon Master
03:26:34If you’re not together anymore, that’s, I understand.03:26:37And I’m sorry for bringing it up.
Rhysaene
03:26:37I love it.03:26:38Thank you.03:26:40Oh, it’s a little complicated.03:26:41We’re just…03:26:44taking a little time03:26:46Um,03:26:47But…03:26:48We’re still around. We’re still friends.03:26:52just
Dungeon Master
03:26:52You.03:26:53I know that’s technically
Rhysaene

Rhysaene
03:26:57Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, she is explicitly, yeah, she finds it, yeah, she is telling a
Dungeon Master
03:26:58lying. I needed a
Rhysaene
03:27:02A white light, but I guess it’s like, yeah, yeah.03:27:05Well, deception!03:27:07Um, that is a 21.
Dungeon Master
03:27:10I don’t know.03:27:12She nods. So, oh, good. Um, well, not good that you’re taking a break, but I was starting to worry about, about both of you, to be honest.
Rhysaene
03:27:19Yeah.03:27:20you know, just a lot of stuff.03:27:24How are you doing?
Dungeon Master
03:27:25I’m doing great. The theater’s03:27:28Theatres,03:27:29growing every month, every year.03:27:32We03:27:35I don’t remember if you met Iodos before he…03:27:38He wasn’t our lead the last time you were here, Shirley, but he’s wonderful.03:27:43Um,03:27:44Donella and Cassius are the same as ever.03:27:46I’ve written a couple plays since the last time03:27:48we talked. We’ve put
Rhysaene
03:27:49Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
03:27:50on one of them. Things are03:27:52Things are going good.
Rhysaene
03:27:54Oh, I’m so glad.03:27:56It’s good to see this place still, uh,03:28:00Still as far as ever.
Dungeon Master
03:28:02Oh yeah, yes.03:28:04Sometimes we get an angry letter from the Synod telling us we have to make changes to a play.03:28:11Usually, though, they don’t bother us and we get good funding for the arts.
Rhysaene
03:28:21Hey, look, I’m not trying to hustle or anything.03:28:24on it.03:28:25Do you…03:28:27I know y’all play pretty regularly.03:28:30Um,
Dungeon Master
03:28:30Oh, yeah.
Rhysaene
03:28:31I got a new piece I want to hang up.03:28:33Do you mind if I just like03:28:35Bring it round sometime.
Dungeon Master
03:28:37Oh.03:28:39If you want to show your art here, Rhys, that’s absolutely fine.03:28:43Your stuff’s always been wonderful.03:28:46There’s always room in the lobby for local artists to hang stuff.
Rhysaene
03:28:49Oh, thank you.
Dungeon Master
03:28:51Yeah, if you want to bring a piece by,03:28:54As long as it fits, we can find a place for it.
Rhysaene
03:28:57Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:28:57um,03:28:58Or if you wanted it used in like a play and it fit, that would work too.
Rhysaene
03:29:02I don’t mind.03:29:03Um,03:29:05Truth be told, I am…03:29:07trying to make some money.03:29:09I’ve had some03:29:10They’re friends.03:29:11I want to…03:29:12I want to spoil.

Dungeon Master

Dungeon Master

Rhysaene
03:31:03Oh.03:31:04Yeah, I ain’t just a member of the public.03:31:06She’s just, she worked for y’all.03:31:08Two manifestos.03:31:09Please.

Rhysaene

03:33:11Yeah.03:33:12She’s like,03:33:14hesitates for a minute, she’s like, yeah,03:33:18Why?
Rhysaene
03:33:19No, I just, you know, you changed.
Dungeon Master
03:33:23No.03:33:25I’m fine. I’m sorry. I’m sorry if I…03:33:29If I came off as rude or something,03:33:31um,03:33:32I’m fine. I’m great.03:33:34Like I said, when you asked the first time,
Rhysaene
03:33:36You just look mighty stressed.03:33:38I’m sorry.03:33:40Is there anything I can do for y’all?
Dungeon Master
03:33:44I mean, like,03:33:45Right now, this minute? Not really.03:33:47You had talked about…03:33:48Honestly, if you want to come and paint sets,03:33:51I’ve seen your work, you’d be great at it.
Rhysaene
03:33:54Bye.
Dungeon Master
03:33:54um,03:33:55We’d love to have you do that.
Rhysaene
03:33:57- Right, okay.
Dungeon Master
03:33:57Uh,
Rhysaene
03:34:01Yeah, I’d love to.
Dungeon Master
03:34:04Yeah.
Rhysaene
03:34:05I don’t want to stress you all out or anything.
Dungeon Master
03:34:08I’m not stressed. I’m great.
Rhysaene
03:34:10Yes.03:34:13- Thank you.03:34:15Yeah, I get that. She grins.03:34:19Oh, she pulls her into a hunk again.
Dungeon Master
03:34:21Yeah.
Rhysaene
03:34:23Um,
Hazel
03:34:28I’ve choked her out.
Rhysaene
03:34:28uh,03:34:30So…03:34:31No, I got nothing. I’ll never go on.03:34:33Um,03:34:34I hate.03:34:35Yeah, she’ll like…03:34:36to the heart.03:34:37Um,03:34:40the03:34:41Um,03:34:42pulls away and just like,03:34:44um,03:34:45Can I, oh man, I hate asking again for insight.03:34:49Do, or like, maybe this is like General Launch.03:34:51Does this woman seem like she’s like,03:34:54generally a good person? Is that anything like the rumors I’ve had about them?
Dungeon Master
03:34:59You,
Iva
03:34:59What?03:35:00This is my movie.
Dungeon Master
03:35:01You’ve never heard any rumors that they’re a bad person.03:35:06or anything like that. You’ve never gotten the impression they’re anything but like03:35:10like a lover of the arts. She’s a playwright, um, and she loves her job and she loves being a part of the theater. One thing you do know, because it’s not like it was, um, something she was secretive about is, um, Lathiel had an on-again, off-again fling with her before, um, you two got close.
Rhysaene
03:35:30Oh my god!
Hazel
03:35:31Rama.
Dungeon Master
03:35:34But03:35:36Like, of the people here, she’s the one you know the best.03:35:40And that’s not something that ever seemed to bother her.03:35:43She was always…
Rhysaene
03:35:44All right.
Dungeon Master
03:35:44Happy to see you and Lathiel together, or at least as far as you could tell.
Rhysaene
03:35:49Right. Okay.03:35:53Aw, wrist health bad.03:35:58Um,03:36:00Did…03:36:02Was it like a…03:36:05relationship that like,03:36:08one person or the other felt like…03:36:10bad about? Were there any lingering feelings left between them?
Dungeon Master
03:36:20Give me an…03:36:23will be a weird one. Give me an insight check at disadvantage. You’re essentially trying to insight
Rhysaene
03:36:27Thank you.
Dungeon Master
03:36:28to the past.
Rhysaene
03:36:29Yeah.03:36:31Oh, okay.03:36:33Uh, it’s good funnage.03:36:35That would be…03:36:38I just tend flat.
Dungeon Master
03:36:4010 flat,03:36:41You’ve never picked up anything like that.03:36:45They seem to get along great, and Lathiel was involved in the theater while the two of you were together, and they never seemed to have any tension.03:36:58Um,03:37:01Yeah.03:37:03They were incredibly friendly when they were together.03:37:06Lathiel never really talked about her.03:37:10Which is not like necessarily abnormal, it’s just…03:37:14A fact.03:37:17um,
Rhysaene
03:37:17And
Dungeon Master
03:37:18Outside of the theater, you would have no way to know Lathiel even knew her.
Rhysaene
03:37:27Interesting.03:37:44Thank you.03:37:50out.03:37:52Oh, there’s no wonder about this fucking person.03:37:55Uh,03:38:00Hmm.03:38:07- Okay, well,03:38:10Um,03:38:13Okay, if you found anything…03:38:15“Rugwise for me, I’ll be happy.”03:38:18Um,
Dungeon Master
03:38:18Yeah, come in anytime.
Rhysaene
03:38:20Yeah, if there’s anything…03:38:23If you…03:38:28God, how would you phrase this?03:38:34If you find anything.03:38:35Just…03:38:37Let me know, okay?
Dungeon Master
03:38:40There’s nothing here like that.
Rhysaene
03:38:46Okay.03:38:59Oh.03:39:02care, Russell.03:39:05So it’s a bit hot.
Dungeon Master
03:39:07She smiles.
Rhysaene
03:39:12Pop-up.03:39:14I’m sorry.
Dungeon Master
03:39:15You have nothing to be
Rhysaene
03:39:16Ciao.
Dungeon Master
03:39:17Oh.
Rhysaene
03:39:17Oh, sorry, go ahead.
Dungeon Master
03:39:19You don’t have anything to be sorry for.
Rhysaene
03:39:29Neither do you.
Dungeon Master
03:39:32Kinda smiles.
Rhysaene
03:39:39Um,03:39:40Yeah, she’ll give me one last fucking…03:39:43Take a leaf.
Dungeon Master
03:39:47She’s leaving.
Rhysaene
03:39:50Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:39:52um,03:39:53As you leave, you watch as Sera goes to the basin of water sitting on one of the vanity stands and splashes it on her face.03:40:02takes a deep breath as you walk out.
Rhysaene
03:40:06Does she seem upset?
Dungeon Master
03:40:09Um,03:40:09Give me another insight check.
Rhysaene
03:40:11- Okay.03:40:12Let’s try. Would I have disadvantage or anything?
Dungeon Master
03:40:16No.
Rhysaene
03:40:20- Thank you.03:40:21Oh, that’s a five.
Dungeon Master
03:40:23No, she doesn’t seem upset.03:40:25She seemed genuinely03:40:27um,03:40:29genuinely happy that you’re there.03:40:35you head back out, um,03:40:38onto the stage.
Rhysaene
03:40:47- Right, okay.03:40:48Um,03:40:49Ah bon ?03:40:52Yeah, I’ll have my poppin’.03:40:55pet on like a smile and she’d be like okay all right i’m gonna see uh i’m gonna see myself up bye y’all

Rhysaene
03:41:08Yeah?
Dungeon Master
03:41:09I’ve heard you have…03:41:10you are quite the painter.
Iva
03:41:13I’m also really happy because I don’t have to go in the kitchen.
Rhysaene
03:41:15Why, yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:41:17you owe it to the community at large to put those talents to work.03:41:22Uh,03:41:24What I’m trying to say is please,03:41:26our current background painter is not very good,03:41:29we’re saying please.
Temerity
03:41:29Thank you.
Rhysaene
03:41:33What do you have in mind?
Dungeon Master
03:41:36Oh, everything. The rolling hills of the Silver Vale, a dark alleyway at night.03:41:43Mountains and forests and dungeons dark and deep.03:41:50We really do a lot of performances.03:41:54Anything…03:41:56Anything we can get you to do.
Rhysaene
03:41:58I was just talking backstage.03:42:00I got a piece if you want to…03:42:03Use that for something.
Dungeon Master
03:42:06Oh, well, um…03:42:09That’s a…03:42:11Sorry, I’ll get you a new screenshot so you can kind of understand the setup.03:42:15Um,
Rhysaene
03:42:15Hmm.
Dungeon Master
03:42:16the…
Luma
03:42:17earlier.
Dungeon Master
03:42:18It…03:42:18Yeah, there was less reveal than that one.03:42:22Um,03:42:25You can kind of see that they have a big setting backdrop, is what he’s talking about.
Rhysaene
03:42:30Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:42:31The thing behind you.
Rhysaene
03:42:32Yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.03:42:33No, like she was just singing because it’s sort of a hustle.
Dungeon Master
03:42:36This is like,03:42:37Yes.03:42:39Uh,03:42:40possible. I mean, we’re always on the lookout for nice art and could use it in maybe a03:42:47It depends on what it is, but I’m talking about the scenes themselves need03:42:54life breathed into them by a talented painter.
Rhysaene
03:43:00Yeah, I can do that.
Dungeon Master
03:43:01Ah, wonderful. We, of course, would pay you, of course.
Rhysaene
03:43:06Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:43:06for any work you did.03:43:08That’d be great.
Rhysaene
03:43:08Have a feel left now.
Dungeon Master
03:43:09um,03:43:10We’re currently in the early stages of a new production, but I will contact you when things are more long and we have the art direction nailed down.03:43:24He smiles.
Iva
03:43:28You tell me you don’t want to hear it all because you know what you’re doing.
Rhysaene
03:43:31yeah sure so it’d be like um03:43:35Yeah, I’ll be happy to. Just let me know. I’ll stop visiting.03:43:40more often.
Dungeon Master
03:43:40- Yeah.03:43:41Wonderful, wonderful, absolutely.
Rhysaene
03:43:47Congrats.03:43:49I’m going to hit off with my friends.03:43:50Thank you for your time.
Dungeon Master
03:43:52Of course, anytime.
Iva
03:43:54Uh,03:43:56Iva, before we go, would like to try her hand at acting.
Dungeon Master
03:44:01Oh.
Temerity
03:44:02Oh?
Iva
03:44:06I’m realizing that…03:44:09Why risk was…03:44:10talking, I’m sure I would have leaned over and asked Temerity if…03:44:14That like they were like, did they really want that guy to kill her?
Temerity
03:44:18No. They’re03:44:22doing a play.
Iva
03:44:24Oh.03:44:25And then Iva, in response to hearing that, would go, you, sir, have insulted me.
Temerity
03:44:32To… to… to Merdy?
Iva
03:44:32I accept your duel.03:44:35No, to the guy who said he was going to kill us.
Temerity
03:44:37Oh.
Dungeon Master
03:44:39he’s like
Temerity
03:44:39Oh, going all the way back.03:44:41Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Dungeon Master
03:44:43He’s like going over like a, like a, like a piece of paper in his hands.03:44:47He looks up and he says, uh,03:44:49contemptuous wench.03:44:52You.03:44:54sully the reputation of this round.03:44:57with your03:44:59shouting03:45:02Leave this place at once or else.03:45:06Defend your honor by blade.
Hazel
03:45:10Hazel’s going to like03:45:11kind of scooch over to Rhys and be like, did you get what you came here for?
Rhysaene
03:45:15No.
Hazel
03:45:17What?03:45:17It’s here.
Rhysaene
03:45:19Yeah.03:45:20I got turned away.
Hazel
03:45:22What?
Luma
03:45:27Well,
Rhysaene
03:45:28Mm-hmm.
Luma
03:45:29Let’s make a really good distraction.
Temerity
03:45:31Hehehehehehe.
Hazel
03:45:31you
Luma
03:45:32Luma’s gonna dig into her bag and produce a prop sword to throw at Viva.
Temerity
03:45:37Hehehehehehehehehehe.
Rhysaene
03:45:38Perfect.
Iva
03:45:39I might catch the sword and go, ah, I shall.
Dungeon Master
03:45:39You’ve.
Temerity
03:45:44laughs
Dungeon Master
03:45:45catch the prop sword, Iodos grins and says, “Lenon Guard, fiend!”
Temerity
03:45:53laughs
Rhysaene
03:45:55I hope so.
Temerity
03:45:56laughs
Dungeon Master
03:46:01And then he waits for you to come up on stage.
Iva
03:46:04burning my hand on03:46:05hamburgers.
Temerity
03:46:07heheheheh
Hazel
03:46:08Bye.
Dungeon Master
03:46:09They don’t have hamburgers, unfortunately.
Hazel
03:46:09might
Iva
03:46:12No.
Temerity
03:46:12Yeah.
Rhysaene
03:46:12And we’re like, whoop.03:46:13Get him, Mama.
Hazel
03:46:15That’s it, mind you get it.
Iva
03:46:15Thank you.
Hazel
03:46:16My Discord died, I’m sorry.
Iva
03:46:18That’s okay.
Dungeon Master
03:46:18I will be, I’m very sorry.03:46:20I’ll be right back.03:46:20I’ll just be one second.
Hazel
03:46:22Rhys.
Rhysaene
03:46:22Okay.
Temerity
03:46:22Okay.
Rhysaene
03:46:24Yeah.
Hazel
03:46:26have been.03:46:26We have to find that ledger.
Rhysaene
03:46:28I know.03:46:31I’m trying to figure it out.03:46:33I wanna fuck these people over, you know?
Hazel
03:46:37I understand.03:46:39But.03:46:42they’re barring you from what you03:46:45from what you require, then perhaps they03:46:48are not worth salvation.
Iva
03:46:51was perhaps a03:46:53elimination.
Hazel
03:46:53- Woo-hoo.03:46:54Regardless,
Rhysaene
03:46:54Which is, yeah.
Hazel
03:46:56- Yeah.03:46:57Sorry, go on, go on, go on.
Rhysaene
03:46:58I don’t know. They were just kind of close with my friend.03:47:02I don’t want to…03:47:04I don’t want to ruin people’s lives.03:47:05There’s probably a reason why they’re keeping that shit on the reps.03:47:11I don’t know. It’s just, it’s just,03:47:15It ain’t right.
Hazel
03:47:18Understood.03:47:19Well,03:47:21I won’t.
Rhysaene
03:47:21Maybe we could sneak in later or something.
Hazel
03:47:22- Yeah.
Rhysaene
03:47:24I don’t know.
Hazel
03:47:28uh,
Dungeon Master
03:47:31What’s going on?
Hazel
03:47:33I won’t.03:47:36I won’t go against your wishes with this.03:47:38or your, your, your, Eric.03:47:40I may not have known this.03:47:44this patron of yours, because you are, you are a dear friend.
Rhysaene
03:47:50Yeah, I’m just…03:47:52I don’t know.03:47:56Seems crazy.
Iva
03:48:00Okay.03:48:01Even those walls.
Rhysaene
03:48:01more I get into it, it just feels wrong.
Hazel
03:48:06Yeah.03:48:08Um,03:48:14she kind of like,03:48:15size a little.03:48:17Okay.03:48:18Because at this point, she’s like, oh, man, this is the second person that this second person in my in my.03:48:24in my group that’s willing to go down with the ship and just be like, well,
Luma
03:48:29Uh,03:48:30Hey Kat, is everybody distracted with the performance going on between Iva and Aida’s?
Dungeon Master
03:48:31Yeah.03:48:36they seem to be.
Luma
03:48:38I’m almost going to sink into her little chair.03:48:41Uh,
Dungeon Master
03:48:41Okay.
Luma
03:48:42She’s going to cast Locate Object looking for ledgers.
Dungeon Master
03:48:47Um,
Luma
03:48:47I think that’s03:48:48general slash specific enough.
Dungeon Master
03:48:52He.
Luma
03:48:52to find the nearest03:48:54Ledger.
Dungeon Master
03:48:56Unfortunately,03:48:59I’m trying to, ’cause I don’t, I’m not trying to do this03:49:01to just gotcha you.03:49:03you are in like a, it is a, like,
Luma
03:49:03No, that’s fine.
Dungeon Master
03:49:06the nearest ledger03:49:09we’ll say is03:49:11And which one’s nearer.
Luma
03:49:13It was like,03:49:14I don’t know if they have an office, but…
Dungeon Master
03:49:16They do is the thing.
Luma
03:49:18Is it?
Dungeon Master
03:49:18Uh.
Luma
03:49:19closer to me than wherever the other thing is?03:49:21Like, what is the radius?
Dungeon Master
03:49:23their own.03:49:24they are surprisingly equidistant.
Luma
03:49:27Has Rhys said anything about the vision?
Rhysaene
03:49:31Yeah.
Temerity
03:49:31She described the ledger.
Luma
03:49:33Did she describe what she saw?
Rhysaene
03:49:34Yes.
Luma
03:49:34Like, what were the details?
Rhysaene
03:49:35- Yeah.03:49:36Yeah.
Luma
03:49:37What did she?03:49:37What were they?
Hazel
03:49:40It’s a leather bound book.03:49:41Be simple, I thought.
Luma
03:49:43Not that. I meant the physical location, like the stuff around it.
Rhysaene
03:49:43Yeah.
Temerity
03:49:47Mm.
Luma
03:49:47Because if Luma could come up with like03:49:49maybe a reasonable03:49:51position, she might move someone in the auditorium to try and
Rhysaene
03:49:53Oh yeah, we can say the Luma like Austin and we sort of told them.
Luma
03:49:54change the equidistance of it.03:49:58Okay.
Dungeon Master
03:50:00Yeah.
Rhysaene
03:50:00because
Dungeon Master
03:50:01Um,03:50:01It.03:50:02That’s absolutely fine. It would have been fairly dreamlike if you remember it was you were in your apartment.03:50:09and you were going room from room.03:50:11And then as you transitioned to what should have been03:50:13the kitchen, you walked into the stage.03:50:16And from the stage, you walked into a prop room,03:50:18but it was that kind of like hazy,03:50:20dream quality03:50:23um,03:50:24to it.03:50:25um,
Luma
03:50:27So,03:50:28Donella said don’t touch the props.03:50:30Did she gesture at any direction of where the prop room might have been?
Dungeon Master
03:50:34somewhere,03:50:36Yeah.03:50:37She probably would have gestured somewhere behind her, so like…
Luma
03:50:40OK.
Dungeon Master
03:50:40uh,03:50:41um,03:50:42I think that’s fair.
Luma
03:50:42in which03:50:43Okay, slow-mole reposition.
Dungeon Master
03:50:43So like,03:50:44Bye.
Luma
03:50:45Yeah, that’s what I thought.03:50:47Okay, she’s going to reposition over here to, like, watch the thing.
Dungeon Master
03:50:47own.
Luma
03:50:49She’s going to sink in, and she’s going to cast it from over here.
Dungeon Master
03:50:52You get a direction of…03:50:56from Luma.
Luma
03:50:59uh,03:51:00She’s going to.
Dungeon Master
03:51:00and down03:51:02No, actually, because the stage is up.03:51:03So it’s actually pretty on level with you.
Luma
03:51:06Okay.03:51:07While everybody’s distracted, Luma’s going on an adventure.03:51:09She’s going to walk.
Dungeon Master
03:51:09Okay.
Temerity
03:51:10Hehehehe.
Luma
03:51:10over this way, and she’s gonna
Rhysaene
03:51:11- Aww.
Luma
03:51:12release a Beepo03:51:14Uh,
Dungeon Master
03:51:15I love you.
Temerity
03:51:16Oh.
Iva
03:51:16Beautiful.
Luma
03:51:17No, actually, she’s not. How dark is this03:51:19corner area? I just03:51:21moved my mouse around, but nobody can see that. How dark is this
Dungeon Master
03:51:22We’ll call it dim light.03:51:23We’ll call it dim.
Luma
03:51:24- Okay.
Dungeon Master
03:51:25It’s, it’s,
Luma
03:51:25And,
Dungeon Master
03:51:26On the stage are footlights casting light up onto the stage, but back here is not lit.03:51:31So it’s just the dim, like…
Luma
03:51:34Okay.03:51:34is going to03:51:38walk through this door but as she does she’s going to teleport03:51:43past Domello,03:51:44and sneak into the prop room.
Dungeon Master
03:51:47Give me a stealth check first.
Luma
03:51:51Okay.03:51:52Uh.
Hazel
03:51:56spirit.
Luma
03:51:56you will03:52:00What is my stealth score?03:52:02Oh, actually, I have a good score.
Dungeon Master
03:52:02Thank you.
Luma
03:52:07Uh,03:52:1117, 8, 9, 20.03:52:1326.
Dungeon Master
03:52:15You are incredibly well hidden.03:52:20You reach for the…
Luma
03:52:20Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:52:22Sorry.
Luma
03:52:22Sorry. Nope, go for it.
Dungeon Master
03:52:23You reach for the prop room door and turn the handle, and two things happen simultaneously.03:52:30Oh, Mariah Beerbeed. I never get to have any fun with everyone here.
Luma
03:52:34Thank you, Wade.
Dungeon Master
03:52:34Um,03:52:35Yeah, let’s wait.
Iva
03:52:38Why we wait?03:52:40If your words are as sharp as your blade, this might be a challenge.
Luma
03:52:44Yes.
Temerity
03:52:46laughs
Dungeon Master
03:52:46My blade is the sharpest in all the veil. You don’t stand a chance.03:52:50This is your last chance. I’m giving you the gift of your own life. Take it.
Iva
03:52:56Right.
Temerity
03:52:57Okay.
Iva
03:52:57I’m sorry.
Luma
03:52:59Yeah.
Iva
03:52:59I’d rather my life be thrown away than given to me by you.
Temerity
03:52:59- -
Dungeon Master
03:53:06“Then have at thee!” and he lunges,
Iva
03:53:09Thank you.
Dungeon Master
03:53:10Now,03:53:11Here’s a question.03:53:13Are you proficient in performance?
Iva
03:53:15Joke, son, you are not.
Luma
03:53:17She stabs him, actually.
Dungeon Master
03:53:18Then…
Iva
03:53:20Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:53:20Yeah, then here’s what you’re gonna have to do. You’re going to have to roll
Temerity
03:53:21I don’t know.
Luma
03:53:21Yeah.03:53:23I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
03:53:25A dexterity check, if you were proficient in performance, you would be adding your proficiency.03:53:31This is not a charisma check.03:53:33It is dexterity.
Iva
03:53:33Oh, no!03:53:34Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:53:35And it is specifically, you are a capable sword fighter.
Iva
03:53:36She’s got me.
Dungeon Master
03:53:39This is specifically you trying not to harm someone who’s clearly only done stage fighting.
Iva
03:53:45-
Luma
03:53:46Uh,03:53:47If this changes anything at all, Luma specifically created that sword to not just be blunted, but the material itself is basically rigid foam.
Dungeon Master
03:53:56Yeah, yeah, no, no, she’s not going to accidentally kill this guy or anything like that.
Luma
03:53:56Mm-hmm.03:53:58Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:54:00No, no, no, no.
Temerity
03:54:00fucking knocks his head off
Iva
03:54:01That’s good.
Luma
03:54:02Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
03:54:03Wham oh god, he’s dead his forehead points. Oh
Iva
03:54:05Oh.
Luma
03:54:06Yeah.
Temerity
03:54:06laughs
Iva
03:54:06It was a flat roll, and it was an 18.
Rhysaene
03:54:07Thank you.
Temerity
03:54:08No, no, no.
Luma
03:54:09-03:54:11Uh-huh.
Dungeon Master
03:54:1118th.
Temerity
03:54:11Thank you.
Dungeon Master
03:54:12You fall into the rhythm of this fake sword fight, back and forth, your blades clash.03:54:18making less of the clashing of blades03:54:22and more of like a dull thud, boom, boom, boom,03:54:25as you like dance across the stage in this like,03:54:28really elegant, almost as if choreographed sword fight.03:54:32Um,03:54:34Cassius is like, huh?03:54:37Sera, could you add a sword fight scene to the next?
Iva
03:54:40- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:54:40No, it’s a romance.
Luma
03:54:41Bye.
Dungeon Master
03:54:42What about a duel between the jilted ex-lover?03:54:45Cassius, fine.
Iva
03:54:46Ha ha.03:54:47Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:54:47I’ll add a sword fight.
Luma
03:54:50Okay.03:54:51Yeah.
Temerity
03:54:53laughing
Luma
03:54:54I’m hoping that if Luma gets caught trying to sneak into the prop room, she can pass it off as I wanted to get a sword to join in the fun.
Dungeon Master
03:54:54Uh-huh.
Rhysaene
03:55:02people.
Hazel
03:55:02Good.
Temerity
03:55:03Hehehehe.
Luma
03:55:03So don’t let that end.
Rhysaene
03:55:03Result.
Dungeon Master
03:55:03All right.
Hazel
03:55:03Um,
Luma
03:55:04Oh, Murat’s my case.
Dungeon Master
03:55:04Mariah is back.
Luma
03:55:06Thank you.
Dungeon Master
03:55:06Luma, you hide incredibly well.
Hazel
03:55:07Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:55:11you sneak through the shadows, you grab your hand on the03:55:16the door to the room where you sense the presence of the journal.03:55:19You turn the knob and two things happen.03:55:21The first thing is you realize the room is locked.03:55:25The second thing is both Sera Siannodel and Donella Daergel03:55:32in unison turn towards you.03:55:35and say,03:55:37No one- members of the public are not permitted in the prop room.03:55:41Get away from there.
Luma
03:55:41Aw.
Dungeon Master
03:55:43before they kind of like look at each other.03:55:46And then they look back and say,03:55:48There’s no one…03:55:51There’s no one over there.03:55:52That’s…03:55:53uh,
Luma
03:55:54Oh.
Dungeon Master
03:55:54uh,
Hazel
03:55:55Alarm spell, baby!
Dungeon Master
03:55:55it.03:55:57You know,
Temerity
03:55:57Oh.
Dungeon Master
03:55:57Tops.03:55:59Uh,03:56:00Cassius is like, what?03:56:01What?03:56:05they all kind of look03:56:07They all start looking around03:56:10Um,03:56:11Luma, you could stay there.03:56:12You could, like, move the fuck out.03:56:14They didn’t seem to see you in the, like, dim light at the edge of the stage.
Luma
03:56:19Luma looks through the cube hole and teleports through the door.
Dungeon Master
03:56:20um03:56:23Um,03:56:25You look through the keyhole.03:56:28teleport through the door and you hear the sound of footsteps running as both Sera and03:56:33Danella take off towards the prop room.
Rhysaene
03:56:36Oh, my God.
Luma
03:56:36I’m pretty sure these two have been, like, fucking compelled to protect the ledger.03:56:41Yeah.
Hazel
03:56:41As…
Dungeon Master
03:56:42uh,03:56:45Cassius and Iados are just like, what is happening?03:56:50They both run up, you hear the sound of a key03:56:53and the door unlocks.
Luma
03:56:55Luma…
Dungeon Master
03:56:55Oh.
Luma
03:56:56Hold on.03:56:57Luma casts Arcane Lock on the door from the inside.
Temerity
03:57:00Ho ho ho! Ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho!
Rhysaene
03:57:00I know.
Iva
03:57:10get countered.
Dungeon Master
03:57:11can’t be unlocked by any non-magical means. You cast arcane lock and she starts turning the key. She’s like,03:57:18members of the public are not allowed in the prop room and she starts banging on the door03:57:24And Sera joins her and they both just start banging on the door.03:57:30Uh,
Luma
03:57:30I was going to try to look around really quick.
Dungeon Master
03:57:31Okay.
Luma
03:57:32See if she can figure out where this ledger is, because she’s got to grab it now.
Rhysaene
03:57:33Yeah.
Temerity
03:57:33- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:57:34Yeah.
Temerity
03:57:34Thank you.
Dungeon Master
03:57:36You look around, you are in a room full of props and it is pitch black. You can see because of your dark vision in shades of grey.
Luma
03:57:42Yes, what about…03:57:44My locate object spell.
Dungeon Master
03:57:46you can sense it is like below you.03:57:49below, like under this like03:57:52It’s under the stuff in this. Oh, you can’t even see in the room, actually. Never mind.
Luma
03:57:54Okay.03:57:55Loman’s gonna03:57:57activate
Dungeon Master
03:57:57Bye.
Luma
03:57:58Well,03:57:58Charge every wand of secrets to look for the fucking dragon.
Temerity
03:58:02laughing
Luma
03:58:03How many abilities are we going to use for this fucking game?
Dungeon Master
03:58:04Well, hold on, hold on, hold on.
Luma
03:58:07Situation.
Dungeon Master
03:58:07Hold on.03:58:09Uh,03:58:10First, you can’t see in the room.03:58:12Not that this matters too much, because the room’s not accurate.
Luma
03:58:15Yeah.
Dungeon Master
03:58:16um,03:58:17But you’re in the prop room.03:58:19you03:58:20Your locate objects is still going.03:58:22You sense it’s below the floorboard under like some random like,03:58:25piles of like coats, like costume coats and things like that. And some like03:58:31prop barrels, the two you hear are just pounding as hard as they can on the door.03:58:39Members of the public!03:58:41of the prop room. They’re both screaming in perfect unison. Open the door! Open the door! Open the door!
Temerity
03:58:49Oh ho ho ho ho ho ho ho ho.
Dungeon Master
03:58:49Cassius is like, this is…
Rhysaene
03:58:50Thank you.
Dungeon Master
03:58:51It’s calm down. It’s all right. We can,03:58:54I don’t know what’s happening, but as the director, I order you to stop.03:59:00Members of the public, bang, bang, bang!03:59:03Um,
Rhysaene
03:59:04Oh my god!
Luma
03:59:05Oh,03:59:05Shit.03:59:06I made a mistake.
Dungeon Master
03:59:06you,03:59:08you wanted to03:59:11detect secret doors.
Luma
03:59:13Yeah.03:59:14We’ll on to Secrets to see if it can aid me in speeding up the search for the thing.
Dungeon Master
03:59:16Okay.03:59:17You do that.03:59:19There, you sense, like, the loose floorboards under the pile.03:59:21You know there’s, like, essentially a very basic loose floorboard trapdoor.03:59:25While that’s going on, what is everyone else doing?
Temerity
03:59:29Uh,
Iva
03:59:29Uh,
Luma
03:59:31Thanks.
Rhysaene
03:59:31Oh my God.
Iva
03:59:32- Yeah.
Hazel

Luma
03:59:35I’m gonna get in so much trouble from Rhys, I’m so dead!
Hazel
03:59:38Hazel’s just gonna like…
Rhysaene
03:59:38Sorry.
Luma
03:59:39Yeah.
Hazel
03:59:40Continue whispering to Rhys and just being like…
Rhysaene
03:59:47Hello.
Dungeon Master
03:59:48Mariah cut out.
Luma
03:59:49I think,03:59:49Right, I do.
Rhysaene
03:59:51Oh, okay. I thought it was me. I was like,03:59:53No, Mariah’s gonna do some faggot fucking speech.
Luma
03:59:53Mm-mm.
Hazel
03:59:55my discord cut out
Rhysaene
03:59:57Hello.
Luma
03:59:57No!
Dungeon Master
03:59:57He started to cut out.
Iva

Temerity
03:59:57There she is.
Rhysaene
03:59:58Hello.
Hazel
03:59:59Um, yeah, no, Hazel’s just gonna continue whispering to Rhys.
Luma
04:00:00Yeah.
Hazel
04:00:04They’re just continuing their little conversation, and she’s gonna be like,04:00:09This patron of yours, she was04:00:12She was dear to you, guys.
Temerity
04:00:14Yeah.
Luma
04:00:15- Yeah.
Temerity
04:00:15Open that door.
Luma
04:00:16Over the door!
Dungeon Master
04:00:17Open the door, open the door, open the door.
Rhysaene
04:00:17Right.
Iva
04:00:18Thank you.
Hazel
04:00:18Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
04:00:21Um,
Iva
04:00:21Iva runs over and goes, I can help open the door.
Luma
04:00:26- I said,
Iva
04:00:26laughter
Rhysaene
04:00:27Maybe.
Dungeon Master
04:00:28I have a, no one knows Luma’s in there.
Luma
04:00:28- Thank you.
Dungeon Master
04:00:30You were stealthy as fuck.
Iva
04:00:33I’m hoping
Dungeon Master
04:00:33Um,04:00:34Iva, you notice this, if you run over there, you notice this Hazel risks Temerity perception checks.
Hazel
04:00:40Yeah.04:00:4417.
Rhysaene
04:00:4615.
Dungeon Master
04:00:4617.04:00:4715.04:00:49Uh,04:00:49Hazel, Rhys, and Iva,04:00:53Sera’s hands are bleeding as she continues to pound as hard as she can on this door.
Rhysaene
04:00:58Oh my God.
Temerity
04:00:58Oh my God.
Luma
04:00:59Oh my God.
Rhysaene
04:01:00What the fuck?
Iva
04:01:02uh,04:01:04I would try to04:01:06stop her from doing that still?
Rhysaene
04:01:07Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:01:08make a, you can try to stop her by grappling her.
Iva
04:01:12That’s what I was hoping for.04:01:13I’m about to be scared, though.04:01:16I’m about to get hit with, like…
Dungeon Master
04:01:17you’re not rolling.04:01:18It’s just a DC.04:01:19It’s eight plus your strength plus, uh,04:01:22proficiency.
Iva
04:01:25plus strength plus proficiency, it’s still 50%.
Dungeon Master
04:01:27That doesn’t matter. She rolled a nine. You are currently restraining Sera.04:01:32um,
Iva
04:01:32I was like, well, get the door open.04:01:34Don’t make yourself bleed to open that door.
Dungeon Master
04:01:37It’s,04:01:37She starts screaming, let me go! Members of the public are not allowed to go through the prop room!04:01:42Members of the public are not allowed to search the prop room! Let me go!04:01:46Donella is still banging on the door.
Rhysaene
04:01:49Oh my goodness.04:01:50Rose is going to go over there and be like,04:01:52hey, hey, hey, Daniella, what’s going on?
Dungeon Master
04:01:55um,04:01:56Rhys, give me, as you go over there, give me…04:02:00um,04:02:01Luma, you’re able to get the floorboards up.04:02:04They’re not like locked or anything.04:02:05It’s just well hidden.
Luma
04:02:06Okay.
Dungeon Master
04:02:07There’s a simple…
Luma
04:02:07Let me look at…04:02:09Sorry.
Dungeon Master
04:02:09There’s a simple leather bound book in there.04:02:12Um,
Luma
04:02:12Yeah, she shoves that in the bag of holding immediately.04:02:15and starts fixing the floorboards.
Dungeon Master
04:02:15risks.04:02:18As you get over there, I need you to give me04:02:22Uh, are you?04:02:23Are you proficient in Arcana?
Rhysaene
04:02:25Yes.
Dungeon Master
04:02:26I need you to give me an Arcana check.04:02:29you may do so with advantage.
Rhysaene
04:02:31Oh, okay, okay.04:02:33Mm-hmm.04:02:36It’s him.
Luma
04:02:37I really wish we had Dispel Magic right about now.
Dungeon Master
04:02:4018?
Temerity
04:02:40Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
04:02:41Yeah.
Luma
04:02:43with the enemy.
Dungeon Master
04:02:43you sense04:02:45Something…04:02:47off.04:02:48Uh, you, you…04:02:50You didn’t pick up on it before04:02:52because there weren’t obvious signs,04:02:54but you had kind of maybe like at the back of your mind04:02:56felt that when you were talking to Sera,04:02:58but now their behavior is so erratic,04:03:01You can’t04:03:03You can’t avoid the idea that this is magic in effect.04:03:07There’s some magical compulsion forcing this.04:03:09It’s the only thing that makes any sense logically.04:03:12But there’s more to it than that.04:03:15You don’t just deduce this magic, you feel it.04:03:19You can feel it like a heat burning off of Sera and Donella both.04:03:27And also in your chest.04:03:31And you feel like.
Rhysaene
04:03:32Oh.
Dungeon Master
04:03:33if you wanted to,04:03:35you could almost reach out and touch this magic.
Rhysaene
04:03:40I will.
Dungeon Master
04:03:42um,04:03:43you04:03:44You do, and you feel, you feel almost like it’s in your hand. You look at your hand and there’s04:03:49nothing there, but it feels like you’re holding that same eldritch crimson fire that you often04:03:55conjure. It’s,04:03:57hot to the touch and yet not painful to hold.04:04:01and you feel04:04:04like you could…04:04:07Like you have access to whatever magic this is.04:04:09Not…04:04:12You could…04:04:15You could try to dismiss it04:04:18to remove it04:04:20or you could overwrite it.04:04:21Removing it would be harder,04:04:24Whereas overriding it, it feels almost like it would be trivial.04:04:28Um,04:04:30you could just tell them to stop.04:04:32and you feel like that might work04:04:35or you could try to remove the magic entirely,04:04:38which feels like there’s a real chance it would fail.04:04:43and you feel something else, that heat in your own chest,04:04:47is leaning towards you using the magic04:04:51rather than trying to rip it away.
Rhysaene
04:05:05I’m going to override it.
Dungeon Master
04:05:07what would you want them to do?
Rhysaene
04:05:17Um,04:05:18A wrist will…04:05:20just04:05:24I’m feeling like,04:05:25Uh…04:05:29Y’all should stop and take a break.
Dungeon Master
04:05:32They both immediately stop. They both relax.04:05:36as you feel yourself casting04:05:39the charm person spell at second level.04:05:44Um.04:05:45this magic
Hazel
04:05:45He raises an eyebrow. Can I roll an arcana check?
Dungeon Master
04:05:48You can, but it’s kind of similar to that time you, yeah, roll Arcana, go for it.
Hazel
04:05:50Cool.04:05:57Uh,
Iva
04:05:57And I was…04:05:59Go ahead.
Hazel
04:06:00Nineteen.
Dungeon Master
04:06:0219.04:06:04you don’t see in this particular moment risk casting a spell.04:06:09But you do see as Rhys says you should take a break.04:06:13they immediately relax and you sense like a,04:06:16like an underlying current of magic.04:06:20Um,04:06:21connecting the three of them in this moment.
Hazel
04:06:24Yeah, considering risks04:06:26told hazel that they weren’t going to tell her where the ledger was i think at this point she’s
Temerity
04:06:31Okay.
Hazel
04:06:32immediately sus she’s like what is happening here
Dungeon Master

Dungeon Master
04:07:33Um,
Hazel
04:07:33This is perfect.
Dungeon Master
04:07:36Luma, you dig out the ledger, no problem. It’s a simple leather bound book. It was under the floorboards. You said you like work to put everything back the way it was.
Luma
04:07:44Yeah, she’s going to try and make it look like she didn’t.04:07:47And then she’s going to look for a sword.
Dungeon Master
04:07:47Yeah.04:07:49There are lots of prop swords of various types and levels of quality.
Luma
04:07:56he will, she’ll pick just the first sword that she finds that’s like a fake sword.
Dungeon Master

Luma
04:08:02Yeah.04:08:05And then she’ll knock on the other side of the door like, hello, it’s stuck.
Dungeon Master

Luma
04:08:24That’s not good.
Dungeon Master
04:08:25No, it’s not good.
Hazel

Dungeon Master

Hazel

Temerity
04:08:33I’m sorry.
Luma

Dungeon Master
04:08:36You find that…
Hazel
04:08:36Oh, shit.
Temerity
04:08:36- Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:08:37Fun fact about 2024.04:08:39Any spell that has a duration can be ended at any time by its caster, no action required.
Hazel
04:08:45That’s actually…
Temerity
04:08:45- I am.
Luma
04:08:45even the until dispelled duration.
Hazel
04:08:46Awesome.
Dungeon Master
04:08:49Yes, that’s still a duration.
Luma

Dungeon Master
04:08:52Yeah, she, the luckily she,
Hazel

Dungeon Master
04:08:55She opens. Yeah, it’s great. It was a very good call. Lock click. She opens the door. She’s like, oh, weren’t you in the audience? How’d you get in here?
Luma
04:09:04I wanted to get a sword to join in on the fun.
Dungeon Master
04:09:07You should have just asked, dear.
Luma
04:09:10Yeah.04:09:11I didn’t want to interrupt the performance.04:09:13My bad.04:09:14I found a sword.
Dungeon Master

Luma

Luma
04:10:01Yeah.
Rhysaene
04:10:01- This is,
Hazel
04:10:03No, it’s okay. There’s no egg on Luma’s face this time. It’s all egg on Rhys’s face to Hazel.04:10:11It’s like, what are you doing?
Temerity
04:10:12Hehehehe.
Luma
04:10:14What are you…

Rhysaene
04:10:26Yeah, fuck it.
Luma
04:10:26Yeah, I think the door just got stuck. We’re okay.
Rhysaene
04:10:28Yeah, I think they would just hate it.
Dungeon Master
04:10:32Sera looks down at her hands.04:10:33It’s like, my hands got all banged up.04:10:36Um,04:10:37Anyone have a bandager?04:10:40something
Hazel

Dungeon Master
04:10:51Yeah, yeah.
Hazel
04:10:5322.
Dungeon Master
04:10:55Yeah, you get the right selves, you…04:10:58Um,04:10:59apply them, they’ll promote healing, uh,04:11:03prevent infection, ease the pain, and then you kind of bandage up the…
Hazel
04:11:07Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:11:07She’s not terribly hurt.
Hazel
04:11:10Well, she’s…
Dungeon Master
04:11:10Uh,
Hazel
04:11:11Sorry.
Dungeon Master
04:11:12Nope, go ahead.
Hazel
04:11:14I was just going to say, while she’s bandaging her, she’ll be like…04:11:17How are you feeling?04:11:20What do you recall?
Dungeon Master
04:11:23- Yeah.
Hazel
04:11:23from the last little bit.
Dungeon Master
04:11:25I am…04:11:28I feel okay, a little like hot, a little dizzy.04:11:33Um,04:11:34He was…04:11:37It’s really… it was…04:11:40I remember I thought someone was in the prop room, and they shouldn’t have been, but then I remembered that, like, what’s the matter? It’s the prop room.04:11:47It’s not gonna hurt anything.04:11:49And then I went and got a drink.
Hazel
04:11:51Of course. Yes, of course. You must simply be dehydrated.04:11:56Well,
Dungeon Master
04:11:56Oh, that makes sense.
Hazel
04:11:57Um…
Iva
04:11:58Okay.
Hazel
04:11:58If if.04:12:00Mm-hmm.04:12:01If.04:12:02if things get worse here and she’ll take out like she’ll reach into her bag and she’ll take out like04:12:08like a bunch of just like04:12:11A little baggie that just has like…04:12:14meat and like dried smoked meat and like nuts and stuff. It’s just like a ration. And she’ll just be like, “Here, eat this.”
Dungeon Master
04:12:23Oh, we, um,
Hazel
04:12:24I’m sure you’ll feel better.
Dungeon Master
04:12:27She looks at it and is like, this is very nice of you. We have, we have,04:12:32food in the back on the table.
Hazel
04:12:33What?
Dungeon Master
04:12:35laughing
Hazel

Dungeon Master
04:12:37Yeah, there’s some pastries and some bread and some cheese and fruit.
Rhysaene
04:12:37Okay.
Temerity

Luma
04:12:43Ha ha ha.
Iva
04:12:43Ha ha ha.
Dungeon Master
04:12:44I don’t know, maybe.04:12:46I don’t know what that is.
Iva
04:12:46Thank you.
Hazel
04:12:47May you show me?
Iva
04:12:49Ha ha ha.
Dungeon Master
04:12:49She walks you around back, and there’s, like, two, like, laid-out tables with food and…04:12:56like fruits and cheese and, and,
Hazel
04:12:56So,
Dungeon Master
04:12:58Mm-hmm.
Hazel
04:12:58Yeah.04:12:59She’ll grab her hand and rush towards the food and be like, yes,
Dungeon Master
04:13:03Ow, ow, ow, my ow, ow, my hand, ah!
Rhysaene

Temerity

Rhysaene
04:13:17Rizmo.
Iva
04:13:17- Yeah.
Rhysaene
04:13:18turn to the guy who is um04:13:21uh,04:13:22attempting to dual labor.04:13:23and she’ll be like, “Oh, just a thing I thought of just now.”04:13:28up.04:13:28When someone gets the final hit, why don’t you do some, like, spray, like, some red tassels to show blood?
Dungeon Master
04:13:35Oh yes, of course. It’s a great idea. I think we have some of those.04:13:39in the prop room just for such occasions.
Luma
04:13:43Be careful the door, it traps you sometimes.
Dungeon Master
04:13:46Yeah.
Iva
04:13:48It’s weird, it’s never done that before.
Dungeon Master
04:13:49I,04:13:50Well, I’ve never understood why we keep it locked, but…04:13:56Whatever.04:13:57Uh, yeah.
Rhysaene
04:13:58Thank you.
Temerity
04:13:59laughter
Luma
04:14:02This place has been operating…04:14:04without a prop room because it’s been locked under compulsion for how long?04:14:07I don’t understand how this place is successful.
Rhysaene
04:14:08Thank you.
Dungeon Master
04:14:10- No.
Hazel
04:14:10I think I was…
Luma
04:14:10- Yeah.

Dungeon Master

Luma

Rhysaene
04:14:14Yeah, I,
Dungeon Master
04:14:14It’s a…
Rhysaene
04:14:15I think it’s,04:14:17Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:14:18Only members of the public were not allowed in the prop room.
Luma
04:14:21True, true, true. Fair enough, fair enough.04:14:23- Nice.
Temerity
04:14:24It was just…
Luma
04:14:24I like to imagine that they locked the prop room and nobody’s been allowed.04:14:27So they’ve been operating off of like a set of props that were outside before it was there.
Dungeon Master
04:14:28That’s what I’m saying.
Hazel
04:14:28Hi, hi, hi, hi.
Temerity
04:14:31-
Luma

Dungeon Master

Dungeon Master
04:17:54I don’t know.
Luma
04:17:56Well,04:17:56I guess, can we use this time to take a small break so I can…
Dungeon Master
04:17:59Yeah.

Hazel

Dungeon Master
04:18:32No.04:18:33Daisy has all of your character sheets open.04:18:37She’s waiting for you guys to be resource depleted before attacking again.
Hazel
04:18:39I mean, that’s…04:18:40Fine, I’m still a full spellcaster. I’ll hit her with the Silunate’s Viper.
Temerity

Dungeon Master
04:19:04They might be actually, hold on.04:19:06I get that.
Temerity
04:19:06just threw that shit out.
Hazel
04:19:09Thank you.
Rhysaene
04:19:09That was…
Dungeon Master
04:19:09I know they’re at least resistant
Temerity
04:19:10Yeah.
Rhysaene
04:19:10Bye.
Hazel
04:19:12If they’re immune to poison, I’m gonna cry.04:19:16I was like, yeah, you know what?04:19:18I’m gonna bite the forbidden apple.04:19:21I’m gonna eat the forbidden fruit.04:19:23I’ll get Silune’s Viper.04:19:24I don’t care if Reddit thinks it’s overpowered.04:19:31What the fuck don’t make doors?
Dungeon Master
04:19:31They’re not.
Rhysaene
04:19:32- Bye.
Iva

Dungeon Master
04:19:54Yeah.
Iva
04:19:55Thank you.
Hazel
04:19:57It’s fucked up.
Temerity
04:19:59Hehehehe.
Rhysaene
04:20:01It’s…
Temerity
04:20:02That face on top of it is so perfect.
Iva
04:20:03Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
04:20:03It’s literally there.04:20:06- Good.04:20:06It’s literally…
Iva
04:20:07Hehehehe.
Rhysaene
04:20:08It’s literally the…04:20:11It’s literally that when you’re all honest friends and you know that each other can throw each other pregnant.
Temerity
04:20:17laughs
Iva
04:20:18-
Hazel
04:20:20It’s the fucking… I don’t want to… Hazel is not Violet Beauregard.
Iva
04:20:25- Yeah.
Temerity
04:20:25laughs
Dungeon Master
04:20:28Oh, I’m sorry, you ate the enchanted blueberry.
Hazel
04:20:28There’s some…
Dungeon Master
04:20:32This place is dangerous.
Temerity
04:20:32- Yeah.
Hazel
04:20:32She would not eat an enchanted blueberry.
Dungeon Master
04:20:35She doesn’t know what’s intended.
Rhysaene
04:20:35I was going to…04:20:37I was going to say,04:20:39That’s what I hate you.04:20:40Daisy might be coming after me, but I have my trusty Temerity by my side.
Hazel
04:20:46It’s true. True.
Temerity
04:20:46laughs
Hazel
04:20:50Hazel at the break table and she is04:20:53She is…04:20:55She is…04:20:57encouraging the others to eat so that they may regain the caloric04:21:04negatives that they incurred via04:21:07Pounding on a table without any care in the world.
Iva
04:21:11laughter
Luma
04:21:11come back.
Hazel
04:21:12He’s not getting…
Dungeon Master
04:21:13Okay.
Temerity
04:21:13Welcome back.
Hazel
04:21:13Hazel is not getting big and round.
Iva
04:21:15- Mm-hmm.
Temerity
04:21:16laughs
Iva
04:21:17laughter
Dungeon Master
04:21:17Um,04:21:20You all are, Hazel Wild Shapes again, you all are able to get back to Rhys’s apartment, no problem.
Iva
04:21:20Mm-hmm.
Luma
04:21:27Oh.04:21:28We did it.
Rhysaene
04:21:30We did. Did you get it, Luma?
Luma
04:21:33Yeah, I found a book. I don’t know if it’s the right book. I really hope it’s the right book, because it’d be really weird if it was the wrong book inside of a floorboard trap.
Temerity
04:21:39What?
Luma
04:21:42Sorry, I’m a little stressed out.04:21:43She opens up her bag of holding and pulls out the ledger and hands it to Rhys.
Rhysaene
04:21:47- Okay.
Luma
04:21:47Or the book she found.
Rhysaene
04:21:48Um,
Luma
04:21:48I don’t even know if it’s the book.
Temerity
04:21:50What happened in there?
Dungeon Master
04:21:52uh,04:21:53Aev.
Rhysaene
04:21:55Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:21:56as soon as you touch the book.04:22:01That happens.
Rhysaene
04:22:10Oh.04:22:14Um…04:22:20Yeah, we’re definitely…04:22:22Pause for a second, Che.04:22:25Thanks for listening.04:22:30She’ll04:22:35Thank you, Luma.04:22:37Um,
Luma
04:22:37You’re welcome.
Rhysaene
04:22:39And we’re,04:22:44She’s just going to take her hat off and throw it on the sofa.04:22:48Um,04:22:51Just ruffle her head. She looks a little embarrassed.
Luma
04:22:56Sorry, I caused a stink. I didn’t think that that thing would happen, whatever happened.04:23:00What did happen?
Iva
04:23:03Well, you weren’t allowed in the prop room, Luma, and you went in the prop room.
Hazel
04:23:03Yes.04:23:09Yes, that must be what happened.04:23:11That must be it.
Iva
04:23:14See, Hazel agrees with me.
Luma
04:23:15I was04:23:17I was pretty sure nobody saw me go in.
Hazel
04:23:22Cable looks to risk.
Rhysaene
04:23:30I think those people are charmed.04:23:34Something magic.
Hazel
04:23:37Hazelnuts.
Luma
04:23:37- That’s really concerning.
Temerity
04:23:37uh,
Hazel
04:23:40Hazel nods and then goes, then why was your word the thing that called them off?
Rhysaene
04:23:46I don’t know. I just try to stop it.
Iva
04:23:50Did you not let them in the proper room originally?
Rhysaene
04:23:54- No, not me.04:23:59Um.04:24:02I try to,04:24:04take over it. I try to04:24:07Mook.04:24:08Get in Hawaii.04:24:09Or rather, I try to04:24:14take it that’s all I could do
Hazel
04:24:20well
Temerity
04:24:28well.04:24:31Aside from that one girl, I’m glad nobody got hurt.04:24:34laughs
Rhysaene
04:24:36Bye.
Hazel
04:24:36still be fine. Those injuries were superfluous.
Temerity
04:24:44What’s…04:24:47What’s in that book?
Rhysaene
04:24:50I think it’s…04:24:53A lot of info.
Temerity
04:24:55Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
04:24:56something04:24:58- Yeah.04:25:00Something my friend left her hand.04:25:02just04:25:04I mean, I was pretty open about it.04:25:06It’s probably got dirt in the other houses.
Luma
04:25:11Let me see if it has dirt on the sterling place, because I want to send it to my parents.
Hazel
04:25:12Darren Lee?04:25:14Heheheheh.
Temerity
04:25:15laughs
Rhysaene
04:25:16Thank you.
Luma
04:25:19Well, I’m worried. They signed a contract with them, and if they got bad stuff, then I’m like,04:25:22on them.
Rhysaene
04:25:33I don’t know, I just…04:25:35someone was willing to kill me for it.
Luma
04:25:39- That is also concerning.
Iva
04:25:42And send a stalker after you.
Hazel
04:25:46Yes.
Rhysaene
04:25:54I mean, I trust you, y’all.
Hazel
04:25:59I would hope so.
Rhysaene
04:25:59You want to.04:26:00You want…04:26:01I mean, I can share it with y’all.04:26:03I don’t know.04:26:06What is inside?
Temerity
04:26:10Got it.
Hazel
04:26:11Great.04:26:12-Bleh.
Luma
04:26:12Information can’t kill, it’s fine.
Temerity
04:26:15fast forward 20 sessions later and read something and gets hit with psychic damage
Hazel
04:26:21Mm.
Rhysaene
04:26:21Peace.
Luma
04:26:24Yeah.
Rhysaene
04:26:25Thank you.
Temerity
04:26:26I’m fine.
Hazel
04:26:26Brists.04:26:28I have already killed two Greeks.04:26:31I’ve already killed to guarantee your safety.04:26:35We are.04:26:36We are bound.
Luma
04:26:38We ate the friendship bread.
Hazel
04:26:41Yes, very late.
Rhysaene
04:26:42Yeah, we did.04:26:49Thank you all. I’ll just04:26:52It shit’s messy.
Hazel
04:26:55Aren’t we all?
Iva
04:26:55More messy than two women beating on a door yelling, the public is allowed in the break room or the prop room.
Hazel
04:27:01Well, I think that might be involved.
Rhysaene
04:27:01Yeah.
Iva
04:27:05You’re welcome.
Luma
04:27:05- Mm-hmm.04:27:06I think that might be part of the mess.
Rhysaene
04:27:07Bye.04:27:08Yeah, when I asked, what was the half of the lady’s name, the one that turned me away?
Dungeon Master
04:27:14Theros cyanideal.
Rhysaene
04:27:16Yeah.04:27:17Just think04:27:18uh,04:27:20Okay, right.04:27:21ADHD brain immediately forgot the name of society.
Dungeon Master
04:27:24Sera.
Rhysaene
04:27:25Yeah.04:27:26Sera.04:27:27I asked her, she immediately04:27:32turned cold.04:27:34just straight faced04:27:36No, we don’t allow04:27:39members of the public.
Luma
04:27:42That’s what they were shouting at me through the door.
Rhysaene
04:27:42- Thank you.04:27:44Yeah.04:27:47She just turned cold.
Luma
04:27:50- Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
04:27:51Oh, shit.04:27:56Uh…04:28:04- The roost looks like a little skid.04:28:10but she still isn’t just going to open the book.
Dungeon Master
04:28:13You open the book.04:28:15and everybody explodes.04:28:17No, that doesn’t happen.
Temerity
04:28:18No.
Iva
04:28:19Thank you.
Luma
04:28:19Woo!
Dungeon Master
04:28:19The book is full of writing. It is written in the common language.
Rhysaene
04:28:20Choo-choo-choo.
Dungeon Master
04:28:25in a very lovely, elegant penmanship, which risks you recognize to be Lathiel’s handwriting.
Rhysaene
04:28:33Oh boy.
Dungeon Master
04:28:34Um,04:28:35It is a…04:28:38It is a largely…04:28:43It is a largely boring document at first glance.04:28:46like tax numbers and like,04:28:50infrastructure notes, and then you start to realize that there’s notations.04:28:55Um,04:28:57you can see like accounting information, but it’s taxes owed, taxes paid, a name, an amount of money,04:29:08noted as like a bribe.04:29:12There’s all kinds of records of04:29:15tax evasion at various, like explicitly written down as Sterling, uh, house Sterling owned businesses.04:29:22Um,04:29:23not paying full tax amounts and bribing clerks.04:29:28There are notes04:29:30Um,04:29:31about04:29:33like,04:29:34requests for preferential treatment on the installation of lava lamps,04:29:40around04:29:42sterling businesses.04:29:44so that they would get first access to Everfire infrastructure as it became more available in the Lantern Wards.04:29:52You recall very clearly the Sterling Sovereign has lava lamps out front.04:29:58Um,04:30:01And a lot of places in the Hearth Wall don’t.04:30:03Um, specifically with the Sterling Sovereign, um, there are records of, uh,04:30:09the tenants of the apartments that used to be on those grounds, um, being essentially forced out04:30:16of their homes by various means. Uh, some were paid off, um, while others were essentially,04:30:22like you see a record, um, Lathiel noted that the Sterling family essentially hired, like,04:30:28criminals to repeatedly break into people’s apartments so they would want to sell their04:30:34so they want to give up their leases and leave.04:30:38And then the owners were forced to sell and the apartments were torn down and the sterling sovereign was built.04:30:44Um,
Rhysaene
04:30:45Oh.
Dungeon Master
04:30:47To be clear,04:30:48These are not like, this is not a ledger04:30:52that belongs to the Sterling family.04:30:54It is not their official documents.
Rhysaene
04:30:55No, yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:30:56It is very clearly in Lathiel’s handwriting.04:30:59It is her record of all of their…04:31:04their crimes and their secrets.04:31:06Um,04:31:07So it’s not proof of a crime as it’s essentially hearsay,04:31:11but it is evidence.04:31:12It does point a very big finger04:31:15Um,04:31:17towards House Sterling.04:31:20And a lot of wrongdoing, much of which probably has explicit guilt-proving evidence out there.04:31:29Um,04:31:30But there is one other thing.04:31:32At the end of the book.04:31:35a phrase04:31:37written in the…04:31:42in a script04:31:43that only Luma and Rhys are able to read.04:31:48I believe.
Rhysaene
04:31:50what04:31:51And…04:31:52What language is it in?
Dungeon Master
04:31:53It is an informal.
Rhysaene
04:31:56Oh,
Dungeon Master
04:31:57And it says04:32:00Uh,04:32:01It is a simple, it’s a simple phrase.04:32:03It says, “House Sterling seems to have an uncanny run of good luck.”04:32:08There must be more to it than that.04:32:10I smell sulfur.
Rhysaene
04:32:14Oh.
Temerity
04:32:14Mmm.
Luma
04:32:16Hey, what does sulfur smell like?
Dungeon Master
04:32:17and04:32:19stinky.
Temerity
04:32:19Okay.
Luma
04:32:21Sorry, that was a little bit.
Dungeon Master
04:32:22Oh, you weren’t. That was Luma. My bad. I’m not here.
Luma
04:32:23gluing Rhys
Iva
04:32:24Buds.04:32:25I was like,
Luma
04:32:25in fact that she can read that
Rhysaene
04:32:28Thank you.
Luma
04:32:29Unless Rhys is reading this without letting anybody else see it.04:32:31I didn’t think about that, actually.
Rhysaene
04:32:32No, no, no. She said earlier that she is not hiding that from you all.
Luma
04:32:39Yeah, it was like…04:32:40rest in04:32:42uh,04:32:43chin-on-shoulder,04:32:44Reading over Bruce’s shoulder.
Rhysaene
04:32:46They have,04:32:47You’re better with numbers than me, Luma.04:32:50But04:32:51I think she’s saying that this
Luma
04:32:51That’s a lot of crime.
Rhysaene
04:32:53Yeah.04:32:55I think,04:33:02Yeah, I think this is…04:33:06She smells more.04:33:21I’m going to crack open a bottle.
Dungeon Master
04:33:23Yeah.
Temerity
04:33:25See?
Dungeon Master
04:33:25Thank you.04:33:27Crack open them.
Luma
04:33:27Whereas I support…04:33:28I support you and everything, but have you ever considered that you might be an alcoholic?
Temerity
04:33:32Hehehehe.
Rhysaene
04:33:33I’m not an alcoholic, I’ll have you mind.
Luma
04:33:38Okay.
Rhysaene
04:33:40I’ve only heard04:33:43One glass of ice.
Luma
04:33:49If you say so.
Rhysaene
04:33:49And that was because I was stressed.04:33:57Besides, if one glass makes me an alcoholic, then you ain’t gonna let my mom’s.
Temerity
04:34:02Hee hee hee hee hee hee.
Dungeon Master
04:34:03Thank you.
Luma
04:34:04I think alcoholism might be genetic. I’m not entirely sure.
Rhysaene
04:34:07It’s a big deal.
Hazel
04:34:08It’s crazy. You get two moms? That’s fucked up.
Luma
04:34:09Thank you.
Temerity
04:34:12Hehehehehehe.
Iva
04:34:13Didn’t you have like four?
Luma
04:34:15I was going to say,
Hazel
04:34:15I have one.
Luma
04:34:17No, she has sisters. She doesn’t have…
Hazel
04:34:17Glug04:34:18Actually, I have none.
Luma
04:34:19Oh, my God.
Hazel
04:34:19I have none.
Luma
04:34:20Yeah, it’s tough.
Iva
04:34:20Thank you.
Dungeon Master
04:34:20Yeah.
Temerity
04:34:21I don’t know.
Dungeon Master
04:34:22At I Have One, Hazel feels like a cold feeling, run down her spine.
Luma
04:34:25laughs
Iva
04:34:26Thank you.
Hazel
04:34:26laughs
Iva
04:34:27But…
Temerity
04:34:27laughter
Hazel
04:34:27Hazel loses a druid level.
Temerity
04:34:29I don’t know.
Luma
04:34:30Yeah.
Hazel
04:34:30- Woo!
Iva
04:34:30Yeah.
Luma
04:34:34Why isn’t this ritual working?
Hazel
04:34:34Aw, man.
Luma
04:34:35Well, one of us doesn’t think we’re all sisters here.
Dungeon Master
04:34:38.
Iva
04:34:38I’m sorry.
Temerity
04:34:38Hehehehe.
Hazel
04:34:38Hey, hey, hey.
Rhysaene
04:34:39Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:34:40Mm-hmm.
Iva
04:34:41One of us keeps saying mommy instead of sister.
Luma
04:34:41No.
Hazel
04:34:44No, no, no. Hazel has one mom.
Luma
04:34:44Thank you.
Hazel
04:34:46It’s the one who abandoned her as a child.
Luma
04:34:50Eh, fair.
Iva
04:34:51Oh, that means Iva technically has two moms.
Rhysaene
04:34:51I don’t…
Dungeon Master
04:34:51Um,
Luma
04:34:54Mm-hmm.
Hazel
04:34:57True.
Luma
04:34:58Anyway.
Dungeon Master
04:35:04Anyway.
Temerity
04:35:05Um,
Iva
04:35:11Well, this would explain why they’re trying to kill you.
Temerity
04:35:16Yeah.04:35:18- Nah.
Luma
04:35:18I wonder how they know that you have this.
Hazel
04:35:22I don’t understand any of this.
Luma
04:35:30I’m resisting the urge for having Luma launching in a monologue about tax evasion.
Hazel
04:35:34laughs
Temerity
04:35:34laughs
Luma
04:35:35Yes.
Iva
04:35:36I’m not gonna lie, I was gonna say, this explains how, why they sent someone to kill you, whether it made sense or not, so.
Luma
04:35:43Mm-hmm.04:35:45Is it just04:35:46House Sterling that’s on this book?
Dungeon Master
04:35:48Yes.04:35:49It is just House Sterling.04:35:52It is also…04:35:54about a year out of date.04:35:57a little more than that. So like there are references to the Sterling Sovereign, but it’s specifically like the lead up and construction of it.04:36:06There’s no mention at all of the contract between Sterling logging and the Drace, or the Sterling lumber mill and Drace logging. That’s not mentioned at all in this book.
Luma
04:36:18Mm-hmm.04:36:20Thank you.
Rhysaene
04:36:24Wow.04:36:27Meridie did you have something to say?
Temerity
04:36:31um,04:36:36Hehehehe.04:36:41No.04:36:42Uh,04:36:44Maybe later.
Hazel
04:36:45Are you sure?
Rhysaene
04:36:45Okay.
Iva
04:36:46pussy.
Luma
04:36:47Mm-hmm.
Iva
04:36:48-
Temerity
04:36:49Hehehehehehe.
Luma
04:36:50- What does this part mean about the sulfur?04:36:52What’s the significance of that?
Rhysaene
04:36:56I mean, it’s written in04:36:58Wait, how do you know?
Luma
04:37:03Huh?
Dungeon Master
04:37:04-
Rhysaene
04:37:05How do you know how to, oh, your language.04:37:07Blighty.
Luma
04:37:09Yeah, I found a book in it one time and I taught myself it because it looks kind of cool.
Temerity
04:37:10- Yeah.
Luma
04:37:12I don’t know what it is.
Hazel
04:37:15- -
Rhysaene
04:37:15It’s.04:37:20seeing like
Luma
04:37:20I call it angi rewriting.04:37:22I use it sometimes when I’m frustrated.
Rhysaene
04:37:22And04:37:25I mean, Rhys doesn’t know a lot about in funnels, but like…
Luma
04:37:31Bye.
Rhysaene
04:37:31Would the name in funnel come up with the script?
Temerity
04:37:35Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Rhysaene
04:37:36The wrist, leg, nose.
Dungeon Master
04:37:36Yes.04:37:38Yeah, I feel like Rhys would know that.04:37:40Also, if Rhys gave that phrase out loud, anyone who once can make an arcana…04:37:46or religion check, and if it’s religion, it’s at advantage.
Luma
04:37:54I’m foregoing it because Luma doesn’t know that she knows Infernal. She just knows how to read that text in particular. She also doesn’t know anything about demons or devils.
Dungeon Master
04:37:56Yes.04:37:57That’s totally fine.
Rhysaene
04:37:57Thank you.
Iva
04:38:02Joe, my name.
Temerity
04:38:02you
Dungeon Master
04:38:03That’s totally fine if you want to.
Luma
04:38:04Yeah.
Temerity
04:38:04And Temerity would have a bit of an interest.
Iva
04:38:05Minus one to both those charts.
Hazel
04:38:08comment.
Dungeon Master
04:38:08Huh?
Temerity
04:38:09Well, does Rhys say that it’s infernal?
Rhysaene
04:38:11Yeah.04:38:12Well, it’s infernal.
Temerity
04:38:14All right.
Hazel
04:38:15Uh, money arcana check.
Luma
04:38:15- Ah.
Hazel
04:38:19How the fuck did I accidentally close the character sheet? I’m sorry.
Luma
04:38:23Mm-hmm.
Hazel
04:38:24Um,04:38:25My Arcana was 20, 30.
Luma
04:38:27Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
04:38:2823.
Luma
04:38:29Y’all.04:38:30Holy.
Temerity
04:38:3121 religion check.
Hazel
04:38:33Sulfur is another word for brimstone.04:38:35Brimstone is associated with the hells, which is also associated with nefariousness.
Temerity
04:38:38Hey, hey, hey.
Rhysaene
04:38:41Yes.
Dungeon Master
04:38:41the04:38:42um,04:38:43The phrase is04:38:44is kind of, um,04:38:47intentionally light on detail.04:38:50But it being written in infernal04:38:54House Sterling seems to have an uncanny run of good luck. There must be more to it than that.04:38:58I smell sulfur. Just like Mariah said, sulfur is a04:39:04explicitly associated with the hells and with devils.04:39:08The thing that also occurs to all of you who rolled that 20 or higher,
Rhysaene
04:39:08Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:39:13Um,04:39:14In legend and lore, in addition to being associated with brimstone, with sulfur, devils are known for another thing. It’s making deals with mortals.04:39:24in which04:39:25um,04:39:27in which fantastical things are traded for04:39:31dire04:39:32things.04:39:32prices up to and including the soul.
Temerity
04:39:36laughs
Iva
04:39:39Hey, is that a crime punishable thing?
Hazel
04:39:40or even04:39:41A heart.04:39:43No, thank you.04:39:44Um…
Iva
04:39:47Is that on the same lines of using magic as making a deal with the devil?
Hazel
04:39:53I mean,04:39:55I would say it’s probably worse.
Temerity
04:39:59Yeah, I would probably assume within the Silver Vale that…
Rhysaene
04:39:59Thank you.
Temerity
04:40:02Devilry is illegal.
Hazel
04:40:05Yeah, I would probably assume so.
Iva
04:40:05- Yeah.
Rhysaene
04:40:08Thank you.
Temerity
04:40:08Yeah.
Rhysaene
04:40:08“Hm, hm, hm, hm.”
Dungeon Master
04:40:09There…04:40:10If.04:40:12No, there’s…04:40:15It would certainly be considered worse than…04:40:20Um,04:40:21worse than just doing magic.04:40:23It is so unheard of that there aren’t, like, laws about it.04:40:27There’s no explicit…04:40:29Like, there’s laws against, like…04:40:30cult cult activities there’s no law that says don’t summon devils because like that’s not a04:40:36thing that happens in the Silver Vale04:40:38Um,04:40:40But you can all intuit from how seriously the sorrow and, like…04:40:45Magic is taken.04:40:47Uh, like…04:40:49like,04:40:50invoking, summoning, contracting with devils would be met with04:40:54like the full force of the Synod of the Silver Flame.
Temerity
04:40:58Um,
Hazel
04:40:58Can I ask, what’s the coven’s like…04:41:02view on on devils because i feel like maybe04:41:05I feel like Hazel’s just gonna be like,04:41:07Like, damn.04:41:08Really? We’re really doing this in the big…
Rhysaene
04:41:10Thank you.
Hazel
04:41:12Like whatever year it is, like the world’s ended and we’re still conspiring with devils.
Temerity
04:41:14you
Dungeon Master
04:41:15I did.
Iva
04:41:19Uh-huh.
Dungeon Master
04:41:19the coven, like Hazel would not have a lot of information about it.04:41:24It’s…04:41:25There might be some bleed through in things you’ve learned about old world magic, pre-Starfall magic.04:41:32But it is not something that Hecate taught you how to do or anything really about.
Hazel
04:41:39Yeah.04:41:39Okay.
Dungeon Master
04:41:39If anything,04:41:42the biggest little tiny glimpse you ever would have heard about it04:41:49Um,04:41:51would have been, uh,04:41:53some offhanded04:41:54like jab at another one of the sisters from Circe.04:41:58Like, oh, if you’re really so bad at turning into animals,04:42:04maybe you can make a deal with a devil to be better at it.
Hazel
04:42:06-
Temerity
04:42:08Hehehehe.
Hazel
04:42:08that.04:42:09All right.04:42:15All right, well, that just continues Hazel’s turning onto, like, like, like,04:42:20just looking at risk being like, so04:42:23What was your patron like, eh?
Temerity
04:42:26Hehehehehehe.
Iva
04:42:26I have a couple of questions about your patrons.
Hazel
04:42:29What she mean?
Rhysaene
04:42:32Hey.
Temerity
04:42:33Hehehehe.
Rhysaene
04:42:33Right.
Temerity
04:42:34Yeah, Temerity on risk mentioning that it’s infernal is just like squinting hard at risks.04:42:43laughs
Luma
04:42:50Really funny. This ledger…04:42:52talks about another house doing devil magic,04:42:55and everybody’s like, Rhys, what the fuck did you do?
Temerity
04:42:58This is magic.
Luma
04:42:59It’s just documenting somebody else’s transgressions.
Rhysaene
04:43:00Bye.
Luma
04:43:02Yeah.
Iva
04:43:02Nah, I’m not after Reyes.04:43:04I’m just more curious on…
Dungeon Master
04:43:05Yeah.
Luma
04:43:07- Yeah.
Iva
04:43:07Thank you.
Dungeon Master
04:43:07To be clear, the entire thing, unless Rhys said it, only Rhys knows this, but Rhys could tell this entire thing is Lathiel’s writing and record of…
Rhysaene
04:43:17Mm-hmm.
Dungeon Master
04:43:20of house Sterling’s various crimes that she was aware of with like detailed notes on them,04:43:25Um,04:43:27and therefore the last line is also from her perspective.04:43:31It’s not, oh, and I made a deal with House Sterling04:43:34to make all this happen, it’s,
Temerity
04:43:36Yeah, no, I understand.
Dungeon Master
04:43:36I suspect house Sterling has been dealing with devils.
Temerity
04:43:38It’s…04:43:41More like04:43:42watering a suspicion that Temerity’s been having.
Dungeon Master
04:43:44Yeah.04:43:45No, that’s entirely valid.
Temerity
04:43:45laughs
Dungeon Master
04:43:47I just want to…04:43:48be clear that like04:43:50that in case there was confusion, that this book doesn’t say, oh, and I, Lathiel, am making deals with04:43:57house Sterling, it is saying, I, Lathiel, think house Sterling is making deals with devils.
Rhysaene
04:44:03Yeah.
Temerity
04:44:03Yeah.
Iva
04:44:08And it also says, I love you.04:44:12I was hoping that something would come to me as I said that.
Rhysaene
04:44:16Okay.
Dungeon Master
04:44:17Thank you.
Temerity
04:44:17Hehehehe.
Iva
04:44:18They didn’t.
Rhysaene
04:44:18Yeah, this is…
Temerity
04:44:20Well, I think we got to…
Rhysaene
04:44:20Okay, this is…04:44:22Oh, sorry.
Temerity
04:44:22investigate.04:44:27We got to do something about those guys then.04:44:29Sorry, that was it.
Rhysaene
04:44:30Yes.
Iva
04:44:30Yeah, they send an assassin after Rhys.04:44:33We’ve got to kill him.
Temerity
04:44:34Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
04:44:36a wonderful fucking…
Iva
04:44:38Yeah.
Rhysaene
04:44:38What’s the Aries spiz quote? Nope, the whole generation.
Iva
04:44:43Mm-hmm.
Rhysaene
04:44:46Oh,04:44:49Yeah, this is what my friend wrote.04:44:56- It’s just horrifying and rotten.
Hazel
04:45:02Other than the sulfur, I don’t understand the significance.
Rhysaene
04:45:06It04:45:07I think it,04:45:09Links.04:45:10they’re04:45:12Messing with Devil Can’t.
Hazel
04:45:16Yes, of course.
Temerity
04:45:18and breaking the law.
Hazel
04:45:20laughter
Iva
04:45:22Well, yeah, that was…
Rhysaene
04:45:22I can’t.04:45:23Thanks.
Iva
04:45:24They probably were breaking the law when they started hiring assassins.
Hazel
04:45:25- Thank you.04:45:29Sorry, I don’t be gonna laugh like that.
Temerity
04:45:30I’m just going to shut up for the rest of the session.
Hazel
04:45:32no i’m sorry i i i i
Iva
04:45:32Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:45:32Oh.
Hazel
04:45:36I’m sorry, no.
Temerity
04:45:37No, it’s okay. I was just04:45:39joking.
Hazel
04:45:40Okay.04:45:45I mean, there’s no official law.04:45:49dictating04:45:51fraternizing with demons is immoral.04:45:53Like, you know.04:45:54We’re good.
Dungeon Master
04:45:55It’s true technically from a legal standpoint.
Hazel
04:45:55Now,
Temerity
04:45:55Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:45:58the tax evasion is more of a like written down crime.
Hazel
04:46:00It’s going to be how they get Capone.
Iva
04:46:01They’re going to get…04:46:03Yeah, they’re going to get composed.
Hazel
04:46:06Um,
Dungeon Master
04:46:06Uh,
Rhysaene
04:46:06Yeah.
Hazel
04:46:08No, Hazel will nod to what Temerity says and says, yes,04:46:13if04:46:14if,04:46:14if,04:46:15If Temerity says it’s illegal, then it surely must be.
Temerity
04:46:19Temerity is not an expert on law.
Dungeon Master
04:46:25It’s just a little bit.
Hazel
04:46:25That’s fair. Hazel does not know what taxes are.
Temerity
04:46:29Aha.
Hazel
04:46:33She’s like, what?04:46:35I owe coin to the…04:46:37Oh, coin…04:46:39To Argentum? Why?
Temerity
04:46:41laughs
Hazel
04:46:43I don’t understand how any of this works.
Rhysaene
04:46:43He, he, he.
Temerity
04:46:46- Hi, hi.
Hazel
04:46:47If you explained it to her, I’m sure she’d probably understand it, but she’d just be like, what?
Temerity
04:46:52Aha.04:46:53Yeah.
Rhysaene
04:46:54Thank you.
Iva
04:46:56Why do we need a stabilized infrastructure? Can’t they all just fend for themselves?
Hazel
04:46:56uh,04:46:59If you hit her with a…04:47:01Yeah, if you hit her with a goods of the many, I’m sure she’d pay her taxes.
Iva
04:47:02Okay.
Dungeon Master
04:47:05Goods of the many.
Temerity
04:47:05- Yeah.
Hazel
04:47:07Yeah.
Rhysaene
04:47:07Mommy’s
Dungeon Master
04:47:10Um,04:47:12You, you.04:47:14You all have done it.04:47:17You went to the Footlight Theater.04:47:21you found the journal, you04:47:24encountered strange happenings04:47:27at the theater.04:47:29I’m not sure.04:47:29and you got out of there with the ledger intact,04:47:32a record of a lot of house sterling crimes,04:47:35not explicit proof of them,04:47:37but certainly evidence pointing at04:47:40what they’ve been up to.04:47:42If there’s anything else you guys want to, like, cover in the post, like…04:47:47the post-return discussion about Rhys’s involvement,04:47:52or any of that we can keep going and do like that stuff.04:47:56Other than that though, there’s a lot more for this session.
Iva
04:48:01with it.04:48:01It would be after risk stuff, but there is one more thing.
Dungeon Master
04:48:05Okay.
Iva
04:48:07So I’m not waiting until everyone’s done with the rest of the stuff.
Dungeon Master
04:48:09Okay, okay.
Temerity
04:48:12Oh,04:48:15I’m good.
Iva
04:48:23Alright, I’m not hearing anyone say anything.04:48:27Iva looks at Temerity and goes, how was training today?
Temerity
04:48:31-04:48:38is
Iva
04:48:38You beat up another person.
Temerity
04:48:40No, I didn’t beat up anybody today.04:48:43But it was fine.04:48:48uh,04:48:50Things are getting more clear on who’s going to end up where.
Iva
04:48:59Iva nods.
Temerity
04:49:03Hehehehe.
Iva
04:49:04Are you one of the ones ending up where you want to be?
Temerity
04:49:07Yeah, he should pass.04:49:09uh,04:49:10I’m,04:49:11Pretty confident.04:49:17I assume that this is probably happening well after the revelation or whatever, but, uh,04:49:23Yeah, Temerity is just like04:49:25Um…04:49:32Yeah, I should be getting into the Trigoons by the end of the month.04:49:36Um,04:49:38Dragoon Larnas assured me.
Hazel
04:49:38Congratulations.
Iva
04:49:42That’s amazing. Don’t forget us when you’re
Temerity
04:49:44Hehehehehehehehe.
Iva
04:49:45Sorrow-sworn murderer
Temerity
04:49:48Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.04:49:51Don’t forget that’s when you’re a Sorrowsworn murderer.
Hazel
04:49:51Well, I hope.04:49:54Excuse me.04:49:56two things. One, she’s already killed Sorrowsworn in two.04:50:00I wouldn’t be exactly caught.04:50:01call them a murderer.
Iva
04:50:03Yeah, but it’s like would be her official job title.04:50:07And like,
Hazel
04:50:08Yeah.
Iva
04:50:08You know, it’s still killing them.
Hazel
04:50:11Eh.
Temerity
04:50:13You call hunters murderers?
Iva
04:50:15depends.
Temerity
04:50:17You don’t call hunters murderers, I’ve…
Hazel
04:50:17- Thank you.
Iva
04:50:20excuse me you didn’t i didn’t get the robot deception
Temerity
04:50:26you do not call them murderers
Luma
04:50:27Mm-hmm.
Iva
04:50:27Yeah.04:50:29Thank you.04:50:29Yeah.
Temerity
04:50:32I’ve uh
Iva
04:50:33Yeah.04:50:34Thank you.04:50:37That’s fair, but you know, some of the, what we learned at Tarnas were people at some point.
Dungeon Master
04:50:43You literally watched the people become a sorrowsworn
Iva
04:50:43That’s sad.04:50:46Yeah, it’s sad in some way.
Temerity
04:50:46Yeah.04:50:49It is sad.04:50:51You’re not wrong.
Iva
04:50:54So I think it should be a little more decorum than just, you know,
Luma
04:51:02Luma’s gonna write a letter to her family.
Temerity
04:51:05Hee hee hee hee.
Dungeon Master
04:51:05Okay.
Luma
04:51:12does she know the arrival schedule of the ship?
Dungeon Master
04:51:12you can
Luma
04:51:15Does she know when the next one’s going to be here?
Dungeon Master
04:51:18Um…04:51:21I would say probably not.04:51:24It’s probably not like…04:51:27there’s probably a back and forth where they change the schedule for various reasons,04:51:31and it’s probably not static.04:51:32You would…04:51:34You would have an idea of the frequency around the time you left.04:51:39um,04:51:40And you could easily like04:51:42stake out the04:51:44the river up just outside the city, but04:51:49Um,04:51:51I don’t have a good answer for that question also, like externally.04:51:54I don’t know how frequent something like that would be.
Luma
04:52:00It was more if I needed to, like,04:52:03pay for eight left.04:52:05pay for a,
Dungeon Master
04:52:05Hey.
Luma
04:52:07a letter delivery or she could just04:52:10wait for the next ship to show up and just hand it to them.
Dungeon Master
04:52:10- Ah!04:52:11No, you can, you, unless it’s like super urgent,04:52:15you can easily like catch a ship in the next couple of days04:52:19and send it back with them.
Luma
04:52:21Okay.
Dungeon Master
04:52:23That’s no problem for sure.
Temerity
04:52:26Hell yeah.
Luma
04:52:26I mean, it is…04:52:27Semi-urgent, but not like…04:52:29I got to get this through the hands right now.04:52:31because they’ve already signed the contract.
Dungeon Master
04:52:33Yeah.
Luma
04:52:35This is a legal proceeding that’s going to be…04:52:37Not to mention the stuff that she’s sending is very circumstantial.04:52:40It’s less like, I’ve got proof that these are bad people,
Dungeon Master
04:52:41Yeah.
Luma
04:52:43and more, I’m pretty sure these are bad people.04:52:45Take care of yourself.04:52:46Yeah.
Dungeon Master
04:52:47Yeah, yeah, for sure.
Temerity
04:52:47Uh,
Dungeon Master
04:52:49um,04:52:49For sure you can do that, no problem.
Luma
04:52:50Also, she’s going to reply with the
Dungeon Master
04:52:55With the what?
Luma
04:52:56the map.
Dungeon Master
04:52:58Oh.
Luma
04:52:59a letter that her grandfather sent and all that, she was going to send a reply.
Dungeon Master
04:53:01Yeah.
Luma
04:53:04I’ll write it out.
Dungeon Master
04:53:05Yeah, yeah, yeah.04:53:13Oh, there you are. Welcome back, Aev.
Iva
04:53:15The return of AIDS.
Dungeon Master
04:53:17The return of AVE.
Iva
04:53:17Yeah, all I wanted was
Temerity
04:53:17Welcome back, Aev.
Iva
04:54:05I’ve, I’ve,
Rhysaene
04:54:05Hi, hi, hi.
Temerity
04:54:05Hee hee hee hee hee hee.
Dungeon Master
04:54:06Thanks.
Iva
04:54:06I was just asking Temerity every time she gets back, like asking her, even though that means you should probably turn Iva in.
Luma
04:54:10Yeah.
Dungeon Master
