Timothy (DM):Anyways, previously on Shadows of Prophecy, are we going to do?
Dan (Wren):it already. Don't we get to intro ourselves first? No, oh yeah.
Timothy (DM):I mean, is it?
Chris (Salvador):I thought, I thought I think usually it's intros and then, yeah, I don't remember I rewrote my intro and I forgot you all uh, great well I guess we're done.
Dan (Wren):Today we have that's a wrap.
Timothy (DM):Final episode Best time to fumble real hard.
Dan (Wren):Hi, I'm Dan. I am playing the mostly human little bit elf, scholar and rogue and boyfriend splitter Ren Nice.
Chris (Salvador):Hi there, my name is Chris. I'm playing the tiefling cleric who believes that the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams Eleanor Roosevelt, salvador Soros. Playing the tiefling cleric who believes that the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
Kai (Yonce):Eleanor Roosevelt, Salvador Soros Aw, that's actually really sweet.
Russell (Upri):Wait, I missed it.
Chris (Salvador):You'll have to listen to it when the episode comes out, don't worry about it, all right.
Russell (Upri):Russell go, I'm playing Uprie and.
Timothy (DM):I don't know what I wrote, but it's not what I wanted to say Then say something else, say what you wrote.
Russell (Upri):Anyways, something, something, impossible task. There's no other place. She'd rather be, no other people she'd rather be with than right here, right now, with you fuckers. Aww, something, something cute.
Kai (Yonce):I hid things and for the final time, I am Kai and I'm playing the half elf warlock Yonce Bay in a set of a quip, which I always do. I just want to thank these four amazing humans for making this journey such an amazing journey for me. So yeah. I did come prepared, gonna make all of them cry tonight tonight. Well, it's the afternoon, so and for the final time, this is wait. Actually you skipped us, so never mind.
Timothy (DM):Whatever prophecy, no previously on shadows of prophecy uh, I'm gonna make this short and sweet so we can get to the good shit. Our party arrived in entropolis for some bittersweet reunions friends, families, co-workers, lovers, once or twice, and a funeral before it was time to be whisked away and dropped into battle. Our party rushed ahead toward the sunken tower atop standing alice, or I should say, pulling the void and material plane into collapse as she tore down the veil, a last-ditch effort to rid herself of an existence without purpose. And all the friends they made along the way were there too, wow. All the friends they made along the way were there too, wow. But before they could reach the tower, the Titans emerged from the growing doorway through the veil, merging consciousness with our heroes. They all made some very big decisions with lasting consequences, dun dun dun. So let's find out where that takes us. So, just as we ended last session, you have each had Sorry, a little guessing today Shows a prophecy.
Timothy (DM):Your own little conversation and made some decisions, but we're going to put a pin in that because none of you have changed forms, so nothing is going to happen.
Russell (Upri):Uh, in terms of what everybody else is experiencing, uh, excuse you, upraise at least up to an 18 pack. Now, just mid-flight, more abdominal muscle swarms just squeezing.
Kai (Yonce):They're like flexing out they're getting smaller and, yeah, we may need to take you to the doctor I'm a doctor, oh we'll take you to a better one oh, yes, please not, not, not a back alley doctor, a tree doctor?
Timothy (DM):an arborist, an arborist. So chaos continues around you, the battle persists and you are making your way, flying towards the tower, where the Titans have just been pulled into the rift, back into the rift by gigantic magical chains that wrapped around them and sucked them back in. In front of you, the battlefield has been cleared, bodies laid, smashed and splattered, torn asunder, the field has been razed and you make your way up the top of the tower.
Timothy (DM):Where Alice floats in the middle of the rift between the material plane and the void, the very fabric of reality tearing to her will, the two planes beginning to collide. You hear a crackle of energy and you feel the hair on the back of your neck beginning to stand on point as an arrow shoots through the rift, gigantic as large as you. It wails past Ren's face, just clipping the side of his head with the feather of the shaft. It slams into the ground with a thunderous thud and you see Alice her eyes white, her body rigid, black veins Reaching up along her neck, the sides of her face, her temples bulging. What do you all do?
Chris (Salvador):How far away from us is she right now?
Timothy (DM):You can fly on up to her. She is not reacting, so as far as close as you want to get to her, but you can feel the force of her black hole pulling you in at this point. I go towards that and you start to see a shift in your vision. As the two planes are being pulled together the material and the void, they begin to sink.
Kai (Yonce):Alice stop.
Timothy (DM):Your voice is swallowed by the crackling of energy.
Chris (Salvador):Should I try to banish her? Is it? I don't know, because I feel like, once this has started, if she suddenly leaves, it would be bad as well. I don't know.
Dan (Wren):When Ren lands at some point mid-flight, something happened, as we all know. You know, something happened to all of us in mid-flight. But when he lands, you see that his veins are darker, almost like this black quality, and he immediately keels over and vomits up this black ichor. I'm okay, Someone should talk to her.
Russell (Upri):Wow, the anxiety is real bad today, huh.
Timothy (DM):You step foot on the precipice of the tower as you see your vision shifting in front of you, you begin to see looming shadows behind the tower, maybe three times the height of the tower itself. Just lo, leaning over, you see a long sword raising up in the air as a face tilts its head towards the heavens and begins to cackle silently. The sound hasn't reached you yet. Behind them, a winged figure, the shadow of a winged figure, with a halo on its head.
Timothy (DM):I bet I know who those are A bow pointed directly at the rift. They phase in and out of vision blade barrier where would you like to cast it?
Chris (Salvador):uh, I cast it over the hole where the bow is pointing, so it's a. It can make a hundred foot long. Long, wide, 100 feet, 20 feet, 5 foot thick wall of blades. Oh, Blades. So Alice is in between. Alice is right in the middle of the black hole and we can see the figures behind it. Yes, so I'm going to do it put the blades between Alice and the figure and the hole.
Timothy (DM):Okay, this is going to get real metaphysical y'all. So you cast Blade Barrier and you see this wall of blades go up right between Alice and these shadowy figures the wall is. You said it's 100 feet. Yeah, it's 100 by 20. Yeah, 100 by 20. It looks like somebody put a set of popsicle sticks up in front of a giant.
Dan (Wren):Well, no, black owls really did it. Yeah, it's the goal.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, somebody should talk to her Ren's the goal Um but yeah, somebody should talk to her.
Dan (Wren):Ren vomits again. Are you okay over there?
Russell (Upri):I'll be fine, Ugh fine and Uppery will go up to Alice.
Timothy (DM):Al. So you run, you're running towards Alice, and now you start to feel the pull of the black hole, pulling you in, pulling you towards the void. Give me a strength, save.
Russell (Upri):I was the right person to do this.
Dan (Wren):You're also big. Does that give advantage, or something?
Russell (Upri):Oh yeah, I'm enlarged.
Timothy (DM):I think it might actually give you advantage on strength checks?
Kai (Yonce):I would think so If not, I could rage.
Russell (Upri):It's a plus 13. Either way, that it's only a 17. A four is a 17.
Timothy (DM):You begin to start feeling your body pulled towards the rest. You are slipping on the stone. It is raining in this kind of microcosm above you. It's like a storm has just burst out in this point and the stone is slick and you begin to slip. You start sliding towards the rift. You fall over, grappling the ground, trying to scramble back up to your feet. Can you give me a dexterity save?
Dan (Wren):And. I would like to take a tree daddy form and shoot out roots to not only anchor myself to the ground but also anchor Uprate to the ground.
Timothy (DM):Gorgeous. You can do that with advantage.
Russell (Upri):It's only a 15.
Timothy (DM):Alright, I vomit again. I only have a plus one today. Wait, is the vomiting something mechanical?
Dan (Wren):No oh okay. No, I've just proceeded in corruption.
Timothy (DM):Yes, yes yes, okay, so the dexterity save will fail. Um, so you start just like sliding, you're like skidding across the ground at this point, being pulled into the rift until the roots burst through the stone and wrap themselves around.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, so one arm is like roots that shot out to like grab Uppery and the other arm I've like shoved into the stone crevices to hold myself in place. Ah, all right, don't let me die. I will slowly like grow more roots out of this arm to like move you forward towards Alice.
Timothy (DM):All right, so you start just like belaying. Yeah, essentially.
Dan (Wren):I'll belay you.
Russell (Upri):Of Upright towards.
Timothy (DM):Alice Salvador Yonce. What are the two of you doing?
Kai (Yonce):I still thought I was on Upright's back, so I feel like I'm also in this.
Timothy (DM):How far away are you? From Alright then give me a dexterity save, followed by a strength save.
Kai (Yonce):I'm all set.
Dan (Wren):I will also wrap my roots around Yonce's waist too.
Timothy (DM):Because Upray fell, so you're thrown off of Upray.
Russell (Upri):Wait, what roles do I have to make the final battle?
Kai (Yonce):we all die to a singularity.
Russell (Upri):Say that again.
Dan (Wren):I feel like if we went into the singularity, we'd be okay for a while.
Kai (Yonce):Can it be a charisma? No, I'm a plus 11 with charisma, can I?
Dan (Wren):help with that too. Can I like do double roots?
Kai (Yonce):It's a 17.
Timothy (DM):If you have the capability of doing so, then yes, it's a 17. A 17 will fail.
Kai (Yonce):I will also use Pack of my Talisman. All right, so that's a 21.
Timothy (DM):All right so you are able to. As you're flung off of Opry, who tumbles to the ground and starts sliding towards the rift, you're able to do a roll and land on your feet. You start feeling pulled towards the rift. Now do a strength save.
Kai (Yonce):This one's going to be interesting because strength save. This one's gonna be interesting because what is that Mm-hmm?
Timothy (DM):Alright, so you are ripped off the ground and you begin to fly towards the rift. Nooooo, Vines, roots, things Okay give me a um rift.
Dan (Wren):No Vines roots things.
Timothy (DM):Okay, give me a. Are there any mechanics associated with your vine root? Things for attack. Yes, it's a plus 12 to hit. Okay, roll me an attack. Roll to snatch Yonce out of the air. 26? My character you extend an arm out towards Yonce and the roots just fling out of your hands. Is that how that works?
Dan (Wren):I like to think, because I turned one of my hands into a root to wrap around, I like to think that my hand like splits down the fingers to shoot out a second set of roots yeah, it's a little gross. Just like down the middle to shoot out a second set of roots yeah, it's a little gross.
Timothy (DM):They just fly down the middle of the hand, wrapping themselves around his waist and he is just like ragdolled with the force. You're like flapping in the wind, flailing at the end of these roots and you hear the wood is starting to crack.
Russell (Upri):Oh, they're not fleshy roots? I don't think so. Oh, okay.
Timothy (DM):Roots are flexible, mm-hmm To a point, but this is pushing them to their limits. Salvador, what are you doing?
Chris (Salvador):So you are currently grabbed and all three of you are being sucked into the void.
Russell (Upri):Yeah.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, so I've got those two at the end of roots and then I've anchored myself with my other hand to the stone floor.
Chris (Salvador):Can I make a bombshell? What? What Excuse me?
Timothy (DM):Can I make an illusion and try to make it real oh, yes, like make a structure around us okay, so you want to make a structure around you yeah, um all right, yeah, go do my, go do those roles I?
Chris (Salvador):I need to figure out that's the um, manifest manifestation of the mind let's go mordecai's mansion yeah. Mordecai's Manifestation, essentially, yeah, so I I touch an illusion that I can see. Put an intensity to me. Okay, so you create the illusion first, yeah.
Dan (Wren):What does it look like?
Chris (Salvador):Uh, it's like a Rook from Chet. It's like a small. It's like a small tower, like a miniature version of this tower, but encapsulating yeah the.
Timothy (DM):Is this mordecai's tower?
Chris (Salvador):uh, it is not that spell but, it's.
Timothy (DM):It's basically just a rudimentary structure oh yeah, you're just creating like a major illusion, yeah, okay, um, and then you use your soul class ability to try to manifest it Exactly so.
Chris (Salvador):I don't actually have to roll. Oh, I have to roll to make sure that I don't gain corruption. But this I touch it. It appears it's not valuable. It's slightly colder and it disappears after five hours.
Dan (Wren):I'm told it gets ripped apart by this black hole that we're standing next to.
Chris (Salvador):And then I make a DC 14, oh, this is. It says a DC 14 wisdom saving, throw. Otherwise I'll lose memory of this. I'll lose memory of towers. I do lose memory. Oh fuck I rolled a 6 and I think my wisdom saving throw number is in D&D.
Dan (Wren):Beyond. Oh, it could possibly, you could possibly be able to. It's a 16.
Chris (Salvador):I pass in Remembering Towers and now a tower is grabbing. A tower is now shielding all four of us.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, and there is. So what level are you? 14? Well, four. Who's the fifth?
Chris (Salvador):one Alice. Oh, did you get.
Timothy (DM):Alice.
Russell (Upri):No.
Timothy (DM):Alice is in the center of the rift. She's too far away, oh okay. This is just to keep us from flying further you have to basically go to the center of the rift to make contact with Alice I can teleport there if we needed it.
Chris (Salvador):but that's true, and then I have to do corruption save.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, and so there is also a little caveat with this spell that the actual GP value of the object can't be more than 20 times your character level. You're level 14, which means that the gold value of this illusion being manifested cannot be more than 140, or, sorry, 200 gold, which just speaks to the quality of the craftsmanship for how long it will last, for how long?
Chris (Salvador):it will last.
Timothy (DM):The economy in this world is messed up, so it might be pretty good so 280 gold is like a decent amount for like a brick, just a simple brick structure. Yeah.
Dan (Wren):A quick question what? What is the stone Like? Are we standing on like a stone tower? It's like a bunch of stones that are like do they have gaps between them?
Chris (Salvador):Gaps, as in there is mortar and Like cradulations, yeah, where there's parts where you can shoot a fellow, oh yeah absolutely Right. No on the floor.
Dan (Wren):Oh, gotcha Like if I were to turn into an ooze. Could I squeeze through the floor?
Timothy (DM):Oh yeah, you could find cracks in that.
Dan (Wren):This is an ancient tower, because I could turn us all into ooze and we could squeeze through the floor of the tower over to Alice.
Russell (Upri):Listen, we're 30 minutes in and I'm already really concerned.
Timothy (DM):This is going to be absolute fucking chaos. This is final battle stuff.
Dan (Wren):You want me to teleport you over my god?
Russell (Upri):So you can turn Alice into an ooze too.
Dan (Wren):Technically, yeah, willing creatures is easier for her.
Russell (Upri):Alternatively, what happens if she just flops into the void as an ooze caught by?
Dan (Wren):the wind. I don't know honestly. Okay, so maybe not that.
Timothy (DM):So you have this fortress around you. You can feel things are starting to batter against the outer stone wall of this fortress. It's as if the surrounding area is being ripped apart. We don't have much time, guys. The rift is expanding.
Dan (Wren):I am going to channel a root daddy or forest daddy a little bit more and really root myself to the ground via my feet and then wrap roots all around like a root around all of you, and now you can teleport us.
Chris (Salvador):Oh, you want us to go all together, tara, yes, right. Yeah, okay, don't split the party now.
Russell (Upri):I do it.
Chris (Salvador):I snap my finger, my helm illuminates and we teleport the four of us to Alice, in the center of air, and then I'm going to try and keep us from going.
Timothy (DM):All right. So then you're going to try and keep us from going anywhere. So then you're going to try to basically grapple all of you together. Is that what you said?
Dan (Wren):So I'm going to do this before we teleport, so that we're all attached.
Russell (Upri):Anchor to me.
Dan (Wren):Yes, because you're the big ones.
Russell (Upri):Well, I have a plan as soon as we teleport.
Dan (Wren):So yeah, I will wrap a root around Uppery and then use, like, extend that root to also wrap around Yonce and Sal Yep.
Russell (Upri):And then you teleport us?
Dan (Wren):Yes, and I'm also rooted to the ground.
Russell (Upri):Well, and then, as soon as we teleport, I cast Earthbind on myself.
Chris (Salvador):Oh, what does that do?
Russell (Upri):Uh it.
Dan (Wren):It's the yellow tentacles I'm now restrained.
Russell (Upri):Uh, and my just kidding, that's entangle. I can read uh, my flying and movement speed is reduced to zero for one minute. It is concentration. I'm basically just stuck to the ground Like magically. All right, is there?
Timothy (DM):any like strength grapple.
Russell (Upri):It's a strength saving throw.
Timothy (DM):But it'd be 17. All right, it's a decent.
Dan (Wren):Plus being rooted to the ground by a tree, plus the power of friendship. Also that and family.
Timothy (DM):Wow, all of your friends are here Down below.
Russell (Upri):Wow. It's essentially like an anti-fly spell.
Dan (Wren):Oh cool, I have it in.
Timothy (DM):So, I can't lift off. Lift off the ground, alright, gorgeous Alright. So that, all being said, you teleport. You're right at Alice, she's like floating ten feet in the air, but you ink yourself down on the tower just below her. She is like, as I said, her eyes are white, her face is expressionless, her body is rigid, her arms out, she's like. Her fingers are like twisted in, like sharp, rigid shapes, and you can see the veins just pumping through her arms, like a black ooze runs through them and her head is tilted slightly upwards. Her neck feels, or looks, contorted and strained. What do you all do?
Russell (Upri):Well, since I'm a giant woman, can I just reach and pull and just like grab her? She's ten feet away.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, grab on. Give me a strength check. Give me a strength check 22?. With a 22,. You grab onto her ankle and you try to pull her down. You feel this intense resistance. She is carrying the weight, the material plane and the void combined pressed between them, and she does not budge.
Russell (Upri):Oh, can't.
Kai (Yonce):Work. I do something that may not actually work or help, but I just want to try something. Yeah, what do you want to do?
Timothy (DM):I want to see if I can get to touch her like if I can figure out a way to, well, I'll be holding onto her, okay, like trying to pull onto her, so you can touch her and I can give you slap.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, I'm going to cast. I don't know if it's going to work or not. Y'all can tell me if it does, if it's stupid or not. I'm going to cast Dream, I'm going to touch her and cast stream. So in that all, if this succeeds and if she goes to sleep, I can appear in her dreams and like talk to her.
Timothy (DM):So you see the giant, gigantic monstrosity behind her looming over you. All Wave their sword in an arc through the air and your magic is sucked away.
Kai (Yonce):I don't cast stream they counters spelled it oh.
Timothy (DM):You start to notice their shadow. Wait, how close are the titans Material? Those are primordials.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, they're primordials, they're primordials.
Kai (Yonce):They're within 30 feet.
Timothy (DM):I'm starting to feel more material.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, are they. They didn't even guess what spell I was casting it at it's a level 9.
Russell (Upri):Welcome to gods.
Kai (Yonce):Once again I say you don't know what level I'm casting it at.
Russell (Upri):Oh, so those are the primordials, not the titans.
Timothy (DM):So the primordials are standing and they are starting to become more material as the two planes begin to sink and phase into each other. Someone talk to her? The veil is almost ripped apart.
Russell (Upri):I mean, she's not conscious. I said Al, and there was no response. And then I got sucked away. I'm gonna still. Since I can't press stream, I'm gonna grab, since I can.
Kai (Yonce):I said Al, and there was no response, and then I got sucked away. I'm gonna still, since I can't press stream, I'm gonna grab, since I can get closer. I'm just gonna grab her face and be like Alice. Look me in my eyes, alice, are you there? You have to stop this.
Timothy (DM):Everybody roll initiative. No, I'm trying to talk.
Kai (Yonce):Why are you doing this? Come on, the. Talking's gonna be part of initiative. No, I'm trying to talk. Why are you doing this?
Timothy (DM):Come on the talking's gonna be part of initiative.
Kai (Yonce):I'm not talking about initiative. I'm just trying to be violent.
Dan (Wren):Last combat, well, maybe, maybe last, probably last combat I rolled a dirty 20. I rolled a 17.
Timothy (DM):Uprey.
Russell (Upri):I don't remember where my initiative is um 16 alright, solid work 9, gorgeous alright.
Timothy (DM):So, gansay, you begin to try to shake Alice. She is so rigid it's like trying to shake an immovable rod.
Kai (Yonce):Um so, what button can I press to unmove her? She is so rigid it's like trying to shake an immovable rod. What button can I press?
Russell (Upri):to un-move her. I think you know, oh no.
Timothy (DM):No, no, no, no, no. We're not doing that. That is when another arrow flies at your party. Everybody make a dexterity saving throw. Flies at your party. Everybody make a dexterity saving throw, as an arrow the size of your body slams into the stone.
Chris (Salvador):Are we protected at all by that blade barrier that I erected Because I put it between Alice and the void?
Timothy (DM):Yeah, so they're standing, so like.
Chris (Salvador):You have Alice.
Timothy (DM):She's a regular sized person and then you have this 10 foot wall behind her 20 foot wall 20 foot wall behind her.
Dan (Wren):And if we're close enough, that gives cover, that's still cover.
Timothy (DM):They're like 500 feet tall.
Dan (Wren):Oh, and they're above us, so they're just standing and they're shooting arrow right over that wall.
Kai (Yonce):You said it's a constitution saving throw. No dexterity saving throw. Either way, it's a dirty 20 for me, Can.
Dan (Wren):I use my illusory self to make that miss all of us.
Timothy (DM):Is that a reaction? It is Gorgeous.
Dan (Wren):How does that work? It's just essentially once per short rest I can use my reaction to make an attack miss.
Kai (Yonce):Gorgeous. Oh wait, I have plus one on all my saves, so now it's at 21.
Timothy (DM):Okay, it doesn't matter, because so you'll lose yourself. Thank you, it doesn't matter what you do, great, it just forces disadvantage. It's instant miss.
Dan (Wren):Alright, only once, per forever. It just forces disadvantage. It's an instant miss.
Timothy (DM):Alright, only once per forever Only once per forever.
Russell (Upri):No.
Dan (Wren):We ain't getting a short rest in. We can sit here, and chat for an hour. We can hide in the castle.
Kai (Yonce):Be like oh shit, the oven's still on. We'll be back.
Timothy (DM):Alright, that's fine, because I also would like you to make a Another dexterity saving throw. Great, as you see that the giant, slender figure comes into view. They're wearing a red blazer, they have long black something that extends in sharp points out of the back of their head. They have long angular features and black lips on red skin. They hold a sword and they point it towards the wall as a cylinder of fire erupts from the heavens down towards the floor. What are your dexterity saves?
Kai (Yonce):Well, the succubus gave me a special thing, so fire damage doesn't actually affect me that well.
Dan (Wren):Oh right, you're resistant to fire. Yes, you should fight that one, I will also say the what does that dexterity say?
Timothy (DM):Let me finish my thought first Wow, you're really interrupting me.
Kai (Yonce):Gosh, anyways, for I was rudely interrupted by the Keeper of Cats. Also, y'all should know that the Mantle of Wrath is gone forever. Just so you know. So whenever we do damage, Rip. Unless I can no, it's gone.
Timothy (DM):No, it's gone. It's gone, gone. You made that decision Hold up.
Russell (Upri):I don't know. The glasses are coming off.
Kai (Yonce):Listen, linda. Yeah, yeah, I'm pretty You're okay. Okay, okay, let's keep going. I'm pretty You're okay.
Dan (Wren):Let's keep going. I rolled a nat 1.
Kai (Yonce):I was a 13. 12.
Chris (Salvador):15. I think we all failed that.
Russell (Upri):You all failed In a while.
Kai (Yonce):Wait, 14. I forget my plus 1 on saves, save it's probably a DC 20, I have to roll a lot of dice what? Kind of dice, impervious to fire damage, so resistant fire it only has it.
Russell (Upri):Hellfire is not normal fire this does not get help why does the?
Kai (Yonce):succubus, try to protect me when I can't. Hellfire is the thing that we're working with. You know what the rest of their abilities are fire.
Timothy (DM):This one, however, is not alright. So, abilities are fire. This one, however, is not.
Russell (Upri):Alright, so Can I cover people with my wings?
Timothy (DM):If you want to give me a dexterity, save you can.
Russell (Upri):I mean, I really don't want to, but I will.
Dan (Wren):Take more damage.
Kai (Yonce):Also. We had a Hero's Feast, so don't forget. I don't know if that does anything for saves. Damage all right. Also. We had a hero's feast, so don't forget. I don't know if that does anything for saves wait, what does here's feast you for, say it's like 16 you have to beat a 26.
Timothy (DM):Wow, can I?
Russell (Upri):to take damage for people.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, you have advantage on all those ones, gotcha.
Russell (Upri):Oh, so the highest I could ever roll as a deck save is 21 if I get an at 20. So I'm just not going to roll, got it. That's rough.
Dan (Wren):We need to split up. We can't be clustered like this.
Russell (Upri):Oh yeah, but then if we split up we might get sucked Everybody yeah.
Dan (Wren):But then if we split up, Okay.
Russell (Upri):We might get sucked.
Timothy (DM):Y'all are going to be real pissed Everybody as soon as I say this number you're all going to yell at me. Sure, so don't say it.
Kai (Yonce):Why would you cause damage to yourself?
Timothy (DM):if you want, don't damage us, so you can get damaged. It's 140 fire damage. Is there any?
Chris (Salvador):resistance to that question though.
Russell (Upri):So like the damage counter on D&D Beyond doesn't go past 100, so I think that's what it maxes out as see it stops at 100, so I have evasion, so I get to half that so that's 70 damage, so I have.
Dan (Wren):Evasion, so I get to half.
Timothy (DM):That Okay, yes.
Dan (Wren):So that's 70 damage.
Timothy (DM):Are we like on fire, my God? So this, yeah, this cone of fire shoots down from the sky. It is 100 foot tall 20 foot radius. You all tied yourselves together, so you're in a 20 foot radius of each other, and it's going to last for a minute.
Dan (Wren):We got to get out of here.
Russell (Upri):So into the void.
Timothy (DM):So that's important. You lose your immunity or resistance to fire damage.
Kai (Yonce):Are you?
Chris (Salvador):serious, even if.
Timothy (DM):I was born with it, or if you have resistance or you gain a vulnerability to fire damage for the next minute. Oh boy, so you're the only one who is not vulnerable. You are just regular to fire. Now, everybody else is vulnerable to fire, and then you take the fire damage a hundred and forty.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, well, we really thought we really thought we thought we could fight a god to.
Russell (Upri):God, we thought we could fight a god, two gods, we thought we could fight four.
Dan (Wren):I'm unconscious.
Russell (Upri):You're unconscious.
Chris (Salvador):There's 140 hit points.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, how many do you have?
Dan (Wren):Well, I halved it because I have a vision Plus.
Kai (Yonce):Well, I think I have something that I have Continue.
Russell (Upri):Also.
Kai (Yonce):D&D Beyond.
Russell (Upri):I mean the DM doesn't Shh I mean the DM doesn't know that I wasn't falling for? That logic I was not falling for that even the slightest, it's sound.
Timothy (DM):We don't use the developer software engineering, developer logic in order to change the rules of D&D. Alright, so yeah, it's Ren's turn. Yeah.
Dan (Wren):What do you do? What are you doing? Um, um, I'm going to let everybody go with the roots, because, if not, I'm literally just going to die sitting in this spot. Um, and I would like to shape, change into a black dragon, all right, into a black dragon.
Timothy (DM):Alright. So your body begins to contort and gigantic arms shoot and burst out of your torso A head elongates. Your skin rips.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, it's like my body tears apart and a black dragon pours out.
Timothy (DM):It splatters everything with your blood and viscera.
Dan (Wren):So sorry, but now I'm standing over us as a black dragon and I will use hive mind so we can talk.
Russell (Upri):Does the splatter of blood cool the hellfire a little bit.
Chris (Salvador):It's like a sprinkler it immediately evaporates.
Russell (Upri):Perfect, so we're breathing it in, yeah, it becomes a vapor. It's like power and vaporized immediately.
Timothy (DM):You can smell it. It's like copper.
Dan (Wren):And I'm going to tell everybody to get Alice to stop, and then I am going to fly at the one with the sword Into the void, I guess, well, into the subtle pseudo-void, because we're like in half-planes at this point, right yeah?
Timothy (DM):As they become more material, the pull into the rift begins to weaken, not because the actual force has lessened, but because the two planes have begun to merge. Question.
Kai (Yonce):Was the hellfire a spell? No Damn, I was going to say if I could use my body.
Timothy (DM):Sorry, it's not a spell.
Kai (Yonce):You're not sorry, don't you?
Dan (Wren):And how far away is the big red guy's face?
Timothy (DM):Yeah, so I'm going to put them at 50 feet oh, I can get to his face, and the other one is about 100. Feet, oh, I can get to his face. One is about 100.
Dan (Wren):Great, I can get to his face yeah I want to distract that one. I want to get that one to look at me. All right, how?
Timothy (DM):how big is it? Did you say, uh, 500 feet tall?
Dan (Wren):okay, so I as a huge, as a huge, dragon.
Timothy (DM):the tower itself is 300 feet tall, so they're about 200 feet taller than the tower.
Dan (Wren):Gotcha Okay, great, great. And 50 feet away, I'm gonna go to his face. That's it. That's all I could do, because that was my action.
Chris (Salvador):Do you have any bonus?
Dan (Wren):actions. I'll uh, not as a dragon, but I will analyze it as a bonus action.
Timothy (DM):So might as well, apply that shit to my arsenal. Let's get fucking chaotic y'all. Yeah, alright, alright. So the way that they are going to run is I'm only doing their legendary actions, I'm not doing any of their other shit.
Russell (Upri):Great. No, that's good for us.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, so you are going to attract the attention of Maligna.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, I'm going to fly in front of his face, I'm just trying to like.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, so give me an intimidation check.
Dan (Wren):Intimidation check, yeah, do I have anything? We're technically I do have frightful presence as an adult black dragon 50 feet away.
Kai (Yonce):Yes.
Dan (Wren):Intimidation Plus one.
Timothy (DM):I wonder how many things you're going to try today. It's a 14. A 14? All right, it's enough to at least attract their first attack. So, they are going to. How much health do we have? Is that your turn?
Dan (Wren):Yeah, transforming was my entire action. Gorgeous, but yeah, transforming was my entire action.
Timothy (DM):Gorgeous. So they are going to take their sword and they're going to give it a nice little flourish, because they're just so. Imagine. Imagine they're wearing a red blazer, they've got sunglasses on. You can see their sharp eyebrows extending out from their long, angular face, these black spikes extending out back from the back of their head. Um, and they have this just like golden sword, just covered in jewels, like the most, like, um, we're talking gold toilet level of absurdity like this is just pompous. And what? Yeah, so they just do a nice little flourish and then they take the sword with two hands and, almost like they're swinging a baseball bat, they begin to try to bat you out of it. Great, with the flap of the blade. Cool, so they are going to make an attack on you. Does a Does a 38 hit.
Dan (Wren):No, turns out.
Timothy (DM):my AC is 46, so so they are going to slam into you the way I believed that for a second yeah actually if attacks are over 30.
Russell (Upri):They actually turn back around and hit the person in the face that swung it it's a boomerang in like cornhole to bust it.
Kai (Yonce):It's a boomerang.
Dan (Wren):It's a boomerang In like cornhole to bust, to go back to a lower number.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, totally, I so agree.
Kai (Yonce):It's only been less than an hour. It's waiting too long. How?
Dan (Wren):much damage does that do 98. Oh, I'm still up, that do 98. Oh, I'm still up. How? Dragon 53 bludgeoning Wait this is plus the 98?.
Timothy (DM):No, this is 9d8.
Dan (Wren):9d8. I thought you said 98.
Russell (Upri):The D really gets me sometimes so what was the total?
Timothy (DM):So it's 53 bludgeoning and then it's going to be some fire damage, which you are vulnerable to, even in my new form?
Dan (Wren):No, you're not. I mean, I'm about to be 26 fire damage.
Russell (Upri):Someone else. Huh. It's not hellfire damage.
Timothy (DM):This is not hellfire. Damage that cone or the Still above power word kill, Pillar the hellfire pillar is what makes you vulnerable. Oh, okay, so if you don't get hit by that, you're good.
Timothy (DM):All the other abilities are just regular fire. So, yeah, that's what they do. And then you see the angel angelic cheeks, this bulbous nose, this almost bald head like greasy slick, nearly bald head, wearing this white gown with just like golden chains wrapped around it and this gold ornate bow, and he is going to actually start like the wings start to flap and he starts flying backwards away from you all at 60 feet of speed. Flying speed, oh no, sorry, 150. His flying speed is 150.
Dan (Wren):So he just starts, 250 feet away from us.
Timothy (DM):And at this point the material plane is becoming so blended with the void that now you see the other battle that is going on. In the sidelines, you see two shorter figures, not even as tall as the tower itself, wearing a dapper little coat, a little bustle, holding on with sheer desperation to these magical chains that are wrapped around the Titans. The Titans all lumped together, they are thrashing about. You see another character next to them, one you haven't met before, but one you could assume to be Omega, attempting to keep them all contained. So Alpha and Omega are taking care of the titans for the time being, I don't know, do I try cutting alice in half?
Russell (Upri):talk to her she hasn't responded, though she's like not conscious can I alter? I have a second level spell that you don't literally like shook her in the face nothing oh, oh, like you do with a kid, does make them swallow medicine.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, try smothering her well, I was going to see if I can. I have a new ability called culture self which I can cast at will so can I shape, shift myself to look like her?
Russell (Upri):you can, I don't know if it's gonna work, but oh yeah, mine fucked the hell out of her I'm you, alice, this is wrong so I'm gonna actually do that'm going to.
Kai (Yonce):I think I get her voice Like I forget her voice. Alice, look at me.
Russell (Upri):Look inside yourself.
Kai (Yonce):It's me, Alice. It's me, Alice, last name. We have to stop doing this. It's not too late to stop. Look at me in my eyes.
Russell (Upri):In our eyes. In our eyes.
Timothy (DM):Give me a persuasion check with disadvantage. I'm not convinced that this is a valid argument.
Kai (Yonce):You don't have to be convinced about nothing. It's about Alice's people.
Timothy (DM):I am Alice.
Dan (Wren):You have so many inspirations. I know Now is the time.
Kai (Yonce):Thank you. Do I have to roll a disadvantage again?
Dan (Wren):Yes, Just have to re-roll. Yeah, your persuasion is so high though.
Kai (Yonce):That is true, wait.
Dan (Wren):You're a warlock, so you're charisma-less. Yeah, hold up. I actually may have not even needed it. Wait, hold on.
Kai (Yonce):I may want my Hold on. You didn't even look at the numbers. I just need to see what my Persuasion check. I didn't even look, so hold up, give me back my token. I actually made.
Timothy (DM):All right, tell me what the number is.
Kai (Yonce):Well, one was a 19, and one was a 12, so plus six. An 18? Doesn't do it. Plus the pack of the talisman. Oh Is a 2, 18. It's a 20, 30, 20. Plus pack of the talisman, again you could do.
Dan (Wren):Wait what? Maybe you see inspiration. It's like hard.
Timothy (DM):So, the DC's higher than 20 that we know of.
Kai (Yonce):One is a nat 20.
Russell (Upri):But it's disadvantage. The other one Is it's also nat 20, it's 12.
Dan (Wren):Oh, same thing.
Timothy (DM):She doesn't seem to stir In what is now looking more and more like a husk of the future.
Russell (Upri):She's not there anymore.
Kai (Yonce):You know what you said. Try to talk to her. I tried.
Dan (Wren):Maybe somebody pour a potion? Yeah, I got one in my pocket.
Russell (Upri):You gotta reach into it and open my mouth oh yeah, you're down, just force feed him a potion wait, so is your unconscious body being sucked into the void thing. Yeah, I did, let everybody go oh yeah, and it's a consistent hellfire cone that we then have to move out of at this point, the sucky sucky is no longer happening.
Chris (Salvador):Yeah, they're already outside.
Timothy (DM):It was basically the force of pulling the two planes together, but now they have collided. Oh okay, the veil has been torn apart enough in this area that you are basically able to walk freely between the two planes. The Titans cannot fit quite yet.
Russell (Upri):Okay.
Timothy (DM):I told you it was going to be a real metaphysical year. We're going to like, basically, the two planes slap together. There's a hole between them where they touch and they're being pulled together. That hole is getting wider and wider.
Russell (Upri):And how big is the hole now?
Timothy (DM):It's maybe 20 feet in diameter.
Russell (Upri):Oh, so these bitches are blowing fire through this hole. Yeah, yeah.
Timothy (DM):They just got pointed through the hole.
Russell (Upri):Okay.
Kai (Yonce):They just got. Since there's no, can I use Vampiric Touch on Alice?
Timothy (DM):You can I?
Kai (Yonce):need to gain some hit points back.
Russell (Upri):LOL, lol, wake up.
Kai (Yonce):Well, we tried, so I can use it.
Timothy (DM):You don't know what potentially killing alice would result in I mean, could it get worse? Oh, it can get so much worse?
Kai (Yonce):of course it can I'm going to consult, let's, can someone fix Sal? Oh yeah, you're big, you're a dragon, I'm the only normal one here.
Dan (Wren):I guess I could link Alice into the mind. I could link Alice into the hive. Mind Also feels a little dangerous.
Russell (Upri):Can't be any more dangerous than dying Fine.
Dan (Wren):I will link Allison to the hive mind as well. Just a word, you know.
Timothy (DM):All right, as you set up the link, if she accepts Consensual. You. She has no ability to Refuse it. Cool, you just hear her screaming, echoing through all of your minds.
Kai (Yonce):She is agony.
Timothy (DM):Okay, she wants to dagger drawn through their body, just like ripping down, like shrieking. This is like death rattle level shriek, where she's like screaming out in pain, she's being pulled apart by the two planes but like, while physically she looks intact, her mind rips apart. Anything else Yonce was going to do.
Kai (Yonce):You told me that you don't know what will happen.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, we don't. I'm just making accurate statements.
Kai (Yonce):I feel like if she I mean part of me is like if she dies before the void is complete, they can't really use her. Can we also teleport her outside of the void when we make you conscious again? I need some yeses or nos.
Chris (Salvador):Whenever I tried to do sending, it didn't work in the void, so I'm guessing teleportation is the same way.
Timothy (DM):Y'all have to make your own decisions.
Kai (Yonce):I'm Worth the try.
Chris (Salvador):I'm gonna do.
Kai (Yonce):Valkyrie. Touch.
Dan (Wren):Sorry, I need these.
Timothy (DM):Is it an attack roll or a save?
Kai (Yonce):It's an attack roll Alright, and I got a net one oh boy.
Timothy (DM):So you're gonna credit on her. Roll for damage.
Kai (Yonce):It's 5d6, so that's double. I have 9 right now. I need one more. Here you go. I got that one. Oh, you got it. I need a bigger. I need a bigger. This is gonna be a big one. I need one more. Here you go, I got it. I got that one, you got it. I need a bigger. I need a bigger. This is gonna be. I have one, two, three, oh no, um three.
Dan (Wren):Maybe this will wake her up and not kill her.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, three, five, nine, 15, 18, 26, 31 damage, 31 damage.
Timothy (DM):So you grab onto her and you start sucking the life force out of her and you start to see that her cheeks begin to hollow, that the veins that are pulsing in her arms and her neck, across her face they begin to bulge even more as the skin is pulled taut against them and the color begins to fade. I get 15 points out. But as you do this, the rift begins to shatter at the edges, cracks begin to tendril out from her as the wall between the material plane and the void now destabilizes.
Dan (Wren):Oh, oh, oh, keep her alive, keep her alive, no longer just being ripped or folded in on itself.
Kai (Yonce):It is now crumbled, so she's not dead. So I just won't do it again.
Timothy (DM):But she is still not dead.
Kai (Yonce):Guys, we're, we're guys.
Dan (Wren):I'd like to use a legendary action.
Timothy (DM):You've got legendary actions too. If you're done, I'm done because apparently I'm not helping, for shit.
Kai (Yonce):I'm failing.
Dan (Wren):I also want to try and see if I can get Cyril Not Daphne, who was Freya, Desley and Wesley See if they're within 500 feet Because they came to us to the base of the tower.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, like they were about 300 feet away.
Dan (Wren):Okay, I would like to ping them in because, they spent a lot of time with Alice in the underkeep.
Timothy (DM):Yeah.
Dan (Wren):So might have a better relationship with her. I'm just going to give them access to her. Phone a friend, aka phone dm, to go have a conversation with themselves yes, I mean um, to save you from the thing that you were supposed to be figuring out great awesome, this is part of me figuring it out, and then I will use my legendary action to uh tail whip the um the red suited guy in the eyeball.
Timothy (DM):Alright.
Dan (Wren):Just wanna tail attack.
Kai (Yonce):As you're doing that, can I go to Sal and give them the potion that's in their pocket?
Timothy (DM):Yeah, you still have action economy for that.
Dan (Wren):Does a 25 hit?
Timothy (DM):A 25 does not Fuck off.
Kai (Yonce):Fuck off. At least we stabilized Sal Sal's back in the game.
Dan (Wren):That's true.
Timothy (DM):It's close. They just are able to shift their head a little bit. You feel the wind being sucked off alongside of them. Wait like destabilizes your attack as they move just barely out of the way damn it wait, does that?
Kai (Yonce):didn't we get something that has haste in it? Does that help?
Chris (Salvador):you have. You have potions of hast. You have to drink it.
Kai (Yonce):Oh never mind.
Chris (Salvador):It gives you an additional action each turn it increases your. Ac.
Dan (Wren):It increases your dexterity. It is somewhere inside my dragon body.
Kai (Yonce):So clench.
Dan (Wren):Clench everything inside me yeah it's a suppository now.
Kai (Yonce):There is an anal option, that's it.
Timothy (DM):That's my legendary action, gorgeous um, they are going to try to um return the favor by another. No flat blade to swat you out of the sky. Nope, um Nope. Is it 27? Sure does so. Again, they are going to swat you down, this time trying to swing down to slam you into the ground. So they are going to. I have something I don't know is going to help, but I'm going to ask. It's going to be 29 fire damage, nice, 47 bludgeoning. What do you want to ask?
Kai (Yonce):Um, since we're in this very void-like and like very timey-wimey place, can I call out for Ozymander?
Timothy (DM):Ozymander is currently fighting the Titans.
Dan (Wren):Oh, is Ozymander the one one, the preppy looking one with the chains.
Timothy (DM):yes, okay, yeah they look like a professor.
Kai (Yonce):They're just like 150 feet tall which ones have we made contact with?
Timothy (DM):yet um. You also see um solaris is the cherub oh she's a cherub, so she's helping
Dan (Wren):oh, she's a she hurt I thought you said so a bunch of men that one is holding the chain masculine presenting that one is the void, so I don't really know what that means.
Russell (Upri):So that's the lawyers space that we're currently getting, so not a person so wait what's a loria the woman, woman next to Ozzy with the chains.
Chris (Salvador):Oh, okay, right yeah.
Russell (Upri):So they're trying to get a hold on the Titans.
Kai (Yonce):They're killing us, not a person is the void Knocked out, Knocked out.
Russell (Upri):wake up, everyone goes away. But I guess we don't die, which might not be worse than getting burned alive by hellfire.
Dan (Wren):I'm not really sure anymore. Pretty sure, if we get burned alive by hellfire, we just go back to her anyways. Yeah, but who knows?
Kai (Yonce):Well she's getting woken up, so maybe Ar-. I don't know if this is gonna help, but, arcaness, I know you're here with us. Please help us.
Timothy (DM):All right. So the legendary actions that I am doing. One has slammed the dragon.
Russell (Upri):She's a heavy sleeper, I guess.
Timothy (DM):The other one is going to.
Dan (Wren):I look like shit. By the way, dragon dragon Ren looks like shit.
Russell (Upri):I mean, we all look like shit, he's not a hot dragon Ren um, I got hot dragon conspire yeah, he's just gonna shoot arrows, that's acid too, but I have an acid dragon.
Timothy (DM):Oh, so he is gonna shoot two arrows, and these are gonna go towards Uphree and Yonce.
Kai (Yonce):We already told you how my-. No Goodbye everyone. Oh. Crit fail on Uphree. Ooh. No, let that crit fail be on me. We already told you how much.
Timothy (DM):Goodbye everyone, oh crit fail on a break no, let that crit fail be on me um, but does a an 18?
Kai (Yonce):hit no cause.
Chris (Salvador):My AC has gone up, I think now 2 so 1 because of the heroes feast and 1, two, one because of the Heroes.
Kai (Yonce):Feast and one because it's 19. I think it's 19 or 20. I actually don't. I wasn't able to listen to last week's episode so I can't remember. Girl, I think it is Girl. I am not tracking your sex. It's definitely 19 and maybe 20. I just have to hold back.
Timothy (DM):I wrote down 19 um, alright, so that messes. So both these two arrows just whiz past the two of you, um, as you like, around Alice next to the Hellfire Pillar, but you've left.
Russell (Upri):Oh, it's a pillar.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, a pillar.
Russell (Upri):How big's the pillar?
Timothy (DM):It's like from the sky.
Russell (Upri):No, like how thick, how thick is the shaft? Okay, you're done, so it's 40 feet across oh my god, good luck don't worry, I'm gonna drag her so Uprie, what are you doing? Are you up yet?
Russell (Upri):yeah, I got some points back cool, I'm scooping you and we're running out of the flame pillar. Uh, I guess I want to leave the flame pillar but also kind of be close to alice. Yeah, the pillar was like next in front of alice, but it wasn't on alice, okay, uh, I don't know, I just hit things with a sword. Do I want to fly in there with those things and hit them? Probably not. Um, yeah, it works late. I guess I'll like rage, so that physical damage isn't as bad. So that's my bonus action.
Timothy (DM):That's fair. They have been using mostly physical attacks so far. Um I'll apply that's fair.
Russell (Upri):They have been using mostly physical attacks so far. Oh, apply, that's so weird. And then it doesn't say this is an action. It's just like a thing I can do. I'm gonna slap Sal across the face a few times and bolster their magic. So for the next 10 minutes you roll a d3 and add it to all attack and ability checks. Is anyone else nearby that they can slap?
Dan (Wren):You're flying. Well, I was just smashed to the ground.
Russell (Upri):Cool, as I'm dragging Sal by you, I'm going to slap your dragon ass, so you get a D3. Where are you, yod? Are you still in the flame? Did you move?
Timothy (DM):I actually don't know. I assumed you moved out of the fight. Okay, it's just a good assumption.
Russell (Upri):Well, I have a movement feet of 40 so maybe I make a little zip and I slap yon on the back. So I'll just give everyone I'm the D3 fairy. And then, how far away are Maligna and Solarius? Are they within 60 feet of me? Maligna yes, solarius is 200 feet away so, then, my action is going to be throwing the hand axe of wonder. Let's all cross our fingers for butterfly swarm.
Timothy (DM):It's a nat one, um it bounces off the side of her sandals and, I imagine, just goes off the side of the tower so I will delete that from my inventory yeah, we can't.
Dan (Wren):oh wait, you can't, you can't slurp it back anymore, not from 60 feet.
Russell (Upri):Okay, so that's gone. Goodbye, hand axe of wonder. It's been real. You know what? I have two attack actions and I do from session zero or one have a regular hand axe in there. Oh wait, it's with disadvantage because it's more than 20 feet.
Timothy (DM):Yes, throwing handaxes is actually really hard.
Russell (Upri):Does a 17 hit.
Kai (Yonce):No.
Russell (Upri):Cool that one hits her other shoe. I'm going to delete that handaxe from my inventory.
Kai (Yonce):I think I have more in mine.
Russell (Upri):Okay, alright, because you're an arsenal and I think Upper's just going to panically look at people and start crying.
Timothy (DM):And then Sweets are. Oh wait.
Russell (Upri):I get a wild magic effect because I rage, so I get to roll twice and pick one. We get a five and a six. Let's see. Do we want to? Oh, okay, I get really colorful and rainbow-y and everyone within ten feet of me gets a plus one to AC.
Timothy (DM):Oh nice.
Russell (Upri):So now I have 20. And that's my turn.
Timothy (DM):All right, legendary actions, everybody yeah. So I'm going to just use a flame strike Upray. So, like the AoE, flame strike uprae.
Russell (Upri):So like the aoe flame strike maligna. Yeah, so like maligna is like can I retcon something that I pushed sal 20 feet away from me before my turn can I?
Timothy (DM):just say I threw sal slapped him, through him, maybe, maybe carried him out I carried him out.
Kai (Yonce):He's healed yeah you can't yeah, and then throw axes, two axes.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, you put something okay, yeah, he yeah, left him out he's somewhere more than 20 please okay cool.
Dan (Wren):I love you yeah we're fucked, yes, so there you go, yeah.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, how many legendary actions.
Dan (Wren):Do they have each turn? This is the least four.
Russell (Upri):Typically, typically, it's three points three, and if each action is one point each, that means that's six total economy wise, but some are one and some might be two, so it could be like four to six, depending on which ones they do that doesn't make any sense, math wise, none of this has made sense
Dan (Wren):since we started okay, they have unlimited legendary.
Russell (Upri):That's what I do too.
Chris (Salvador):They're being nice by letting us go.
Timothy (DM):Honestly kind of.
Russell (Upri):Alright, how much fire damage do I have?
Chris (Salvador):You're vulnerable to fire.
Russell (Upri):Correct, so is Sal, which is why she got nestled down somewhere. Since I had resistance.
Chris (Salvador):As a T-Fling am I just regular.
Russell (Upri):Oh, you're normal now.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, that's true. Okay so make a dexterity, save right. It doesn't matter.
Russell (Upri):That's advantage, because I can see the flamestrike coming from the sky to smite me. It's a natural 20, which is a 21. Which is not enough.
Timothy (DM):Oh my god. No, it's a save of DC 24. Oh my god.
Russell (Upri):Oh, I could never make a deck save.
Dan (Wren):Oh no, you gave us a D3. You can't give people a D3.
Russell (Upri):I can give myself a D3.
Dan (Wren):But it's a 26. So the most it could be is a 24.
Russell (Upri):She's already rolling the damage dice. I think it's too late. This is so stupid Is this really it.
Kai (Yonce):I mean, it doesn't happen. You're choosing violence. You did this what do you mean? Is this it? We're supposed to be talking it out and you've been killing us 8 fire damage so double to succeed and 10 radiant damage
Dan (Wren):is this a regular flame strike, not a hellfire flame strike.
Timothy (DM):No, it's just a regular flame strike it's a legendary action so canonically they've just taken their sword and just flung an adult black dragon into the ground with the flat side of the blade and then they notice, they look down, they see these little axes bounce off. It spat at me. That's what this is.
Dan (Wren):I like to think that from their perspective, it's you know how, in movies, when they see like when everybody's tiny and they're like you're just like me maybe, maybe, some of the blood splatter from like throwing you across the whatever gut in its nose and it sneezed and that's what this is it just so.
Timothy (DM):It's just a oh god yeah so we're gonna see two more arrows but do we try to wake Artemis?
Russell (Upri):I don't know. That's the only way out, I see even though it's not really yeah, so wait, am I still taking damage?
Timothy (DM):Yeah, you're still getting shot at. So Because you're in the ground. So, yeah, it's going to be the two of you again. Wait, hold up. What did I do? Does a 20 on uprate and a 19 on?
Kai (Yonce):No.
Russell (Upri):Yonce's with 19 misses. I'm hit, but maybe it's physical damage.
Timothy (DM):It is physical damage. It's gonna be 15 piercing damage.
Russell (Upri):Alright, halved to 7.
Timothy (DM):But then also 27 radiant.
Russell (Upri):I can't have that that.
Kai (Yonce):I have to take all of it, all of it all at once, but then also 27 radiant.
Russell (Upri):I can't have that, that. I have to take all of it. All of it, all at once. I've never been down this low before.
Chris (Salvador):So I want to make a clarification. Whenever we were looking in the void, we saw that Ozymander and Elloria Is that the right name? Oh, they're in the void with the Titans that they were holding the Titans. Because, based off of Upbury's thing Azamander had sent the Titans to wake up.
Dan (Wren):Arcanus yeah.
Timothy (DM):He's giving us a chance. He's giving you a chance. He thinks we're cute.
Dan (Wren):He's holding the dog on a leash.
Russell (Upri):The dogs are barking. He's not struggling, he's holding a leash on a leash. Yes, the dogs are barking. He's not like struggling, he's like holding a leash, being like. I guess I'll give them two rounds to die before I send the tanks, I mean he's struggling.
Timothy (DM):You can see that they are going to break out.
Russell (Upri):Okay, they're Dobermans.
Chris (Salvador):I kind of just want to teleport us all to the base of the tower, all five of us.
Dan (Wren):Do we run? Yeah, try and get Alice first.
Russell (Upri):Oh, I can do all five of you, yeah, but if you can't get Alice, leave us there.
Dan (Wren):But it's up to you. It's up to you sorry.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, the real question is what happens if we remove her but don't kill her, if we don't what. If you teleport her away, will the void shatter?
Dan (Wren):Yeah, part of me thinks she needs to be there to patch it Like she needs to close it.
Russell (Upri):We don't really have a way of like Wait, is there Like, do you know, like a mind shield spell or something That'll like, because if she's like being void screamed in her brain, maybe we'd.
Chris (Salvador):Can you cast silence? I could cast glip, or I could like feeble-mindedness.
Russell (Upri):I don't know.
Chris (Salvador):I don't know if making her stupid that's one thing. It's like I don't know how much of this is she's under control of yeah.
Russell (Upri):I could cast, I think it's not necessarily her, it's like it's an influence of outside forces. So if there's some way to like insulate her from whatever's happening and give her let her regain control of her body, then she might be able to do something.
Chris (Salvador):I want to do that.
Timothy (DM):Her speech sounded very much of autonomous.
Chris (Salvador):She's like I'm the queen of, she decided to do this.
Timothy (DM):Remember she gave speech before she went all.
Chris (Salvador):Speech to nobody all Casanova shut herself on top of this tower.
Timothy (DM):Burn your bibles she gave it to the silence, members below the tower before the battle began, and it's been going on for months she's been she has literally been in this black hole for months, pulling the material and the void together.
Chris (Salvador):I wish Alice. She has literally been in this black hole for months. Oh yeah, Pulling the material and the void together. I wish Alice was a better person.
Russell (Upri):Yeah.
Timothy (DM):Is that your wish?
Russell (Upri):No, oh yeah.
Chris (Salvador):I mean I could. That's not too bad of a wish.
Russell (Upri):How many paragraphs can a wish spell be?
Chris (Salvador):If it's not an actual spell, it's up to the dms all right.
Timothy (DM):Come on, salvador. What are you?
Dan (Wren):doing we gotta keep this going. Give us an opportunity to talk to her.
Chris (Salvador):I can't I want, no, I'm. I don't know what to do. Your indecision is going to cost you your turn I'm going to cast wish and I'm going to wish that Alice was shielded from the primordials.
Timothy (DM):All right With that. We're going to go on a short break, Fuck off.
Dan (Wren):I know that's right.
Chris (Salvador):Can we get a new on? Keeper of.
Dan (Wren):Cards for our final episode, For the last hour or two. You know what I'm going to DM. I will be hour or two.
Kai (Yonce):You know what I'm going to DM I will be hi everyone.
Timothy (DM):Sorry for that. I'm excited for that. One day you will DM and it's going to be wonderful.
Kai (Yonce):I won't, I don't want to cause people pain. We'll be back in 10 minutes everyone.
Timothy (DM):It's fun though.
Kai (Yonce):Pray for us, send us donations to help us. Oh, you already turned.
Timothy (DM):I call my back after a break and Salvador just cast.
Chris (Salvador):Wish.
Timothy (DM):Salvador's wish was to sever the connection and protect Alice from primordials. As you cast this spell, you see Alice fall into the sky, she collapses and crumples in on herself.
Chris (Salvador):I rush over to her.
Kai (Yonce):I also rush over to her.
Timothy (DM):Her body is slim but still alive. She conjures her last bit of energy to wrap her hand around your forearm and pull her face up to meet your Salvador, yes. I mean the black hole now sits above you. Continue to pull the planes together.
Chris (Salvador):Alice, this isn't you. I know who. I've read your diary. I'm sorry to. I'm sorry to say that, but you left it scattered all over the floor of that castle. You're going through a hard time there's.
Russell (Upri):It gets better. Yeah, honestly, it does get better but I mean.
Chris (Salvador):I'm gonna put my hand on her cheek, on her withered black cheek.
Timothy (DM):Well, it's got the veins going through yeah, I'm doing a bonus word, healing word on her. Alright, so you begin to heal her and the energy begins to revive in her body. How much healing do you do?
Chris (Salvador):How many spell slots do I have left?
Russell (Upri):I wasted my six level, I can give you spell slots back.
Chris (Salvador):Okay, good, to what level?
Russell (Upri):One to three.
Chris (Salvador):Okay, so I'll cast a third level.
Timothy (DM):How much healing is that? Let's see baby Healing word. Someone sucked 30-something out of her.
Chris (Salvador):It's 34 plus 5.
Kai (Yonce):You know what I don't want to be. I'm not being made the villain in this storyline, right here.
Chris (Salvador):Oh man, that's almost, that's 14 points 14 points, it's almost half.
Timothy (DM):So some of the color returns to her cheeks and her grip starts to firm up around your forearm. As she begins to look around, tears start streaming down her cheeks.
Chris (Salvador):It's okay, streaming down her cheeks. It's okay, alice, think of all that you've done before you read that book.
Timothy (DM):She begins to hyperventilate.
Chris (Salvador):I don't, can I cast Calm on her.
Timothy (DM):Is that a bonus?
Chris (Salvador):action? No, is wish wish is used as an action or is that just like a? Yeah, you cast the spell as wish, okay that was your action. I'll save it for the next time what have you done? What have you done?
Timothy (DM):and with that we're going to move on to the legendary action.
Dan (Wren):Oh no, we're all going to smoke, Well aren't?
Russell (Upri):we in the base of the castle, so we're protected.
Chris (Salvador):No, I couldn't teleport Y'all hear laughing oh my goodness, you make this so easy.
Timothy (DM):You have split her will from the force she had become, and now the events that you have put in motion cannot be stuffed. Maligna, like keels over in laughter as you see the angel in the background just like kind of puts down his bow, hangs it down at his side and just kind of chuckles to himself in the distance because he's really far away. Ren, what would you like to do?
Dan (Wren):I'm going to do something stupid. Yes, in true Uprie fashion. Hey. I'm still a black dragon, barely. I'm barely a black dragon anymore. I am fucked up. But I'm going to fly up to Maligna's shoulder, let go of my dragon form to land on his shoulder and use meld form on him. Her, her, they Is she they.
Timothy (DM):I mean Primordial, is probably Trans, probably transgender yeah, they've been using sibling terminology because it's common tongue, but you know that they're just putting whatever the closest approximation is. Yeah, for your benefit yep um so meld benefit, yep. Um so Meldform Gorgeous. Um so Meldform just happens. Right, it's an action, but yeah, yeah, right, it's an action, but there's no like save or anything. Uh, so you begin to fail. So you begin to fail.
Dan (Wren):This fire rage within you.
Timothy (DM):Yay, you are going to gain the Hellfire Miller ability, nice, the recharge of 5 to 6. Um, it's a deck save. It's kind of a fast 10d10 on the first Um and also Fire vulnerability.
Dan (Wren):Um. What kind of action economy is that? It has a recharge of 5 and 6, but it's an action. It's not a legendary action.
Timothy (DM):No, the legendary action is to use that action.
Dan (Wren):Right, right, okay, okay, okay, great, All right. Maybe the assimiller can be coming from afar. I don't know.
Timothy (DM):We're still connected like that.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, yeah, anything else that you'd like to do. No, those are well. I got a bonus action offhand.
Russell (Upri):Stab it with a tacker. Wait, are potions bonus actions in this D&D or are they actions, bonus actions?
Dan (Wren):Potion of speed oh, that's a good point. I'll chug a potion of speed.
Russell (Upri):Now you have another action.
Dan (Wren):Yeah.
Timothy (DM):What is the range of the Hellfire Pillar?
Dan (Wren):488 feet. 488 feet Great, I'm going to drop that motherfucker on Solaris. She's got to make it or he's got to. Z's got to make a dex save.
Kai (Yonce):And I hope they fail.
Timothy (DM):That's aggressive. So aggressive I mean I'm matching energy. Does a 19 save.
Dan (Wren):No, you know this. You gave it to me.
Russell (Upri):Five seconds ago we did.
Timothy (DM):Roll the 10d10 fire damage.
Dan (Wren):I'll piss her off.
Timothy (DM):10, 20, 29 plus 29 plus 8 is 37, 38, 40, 47 fire damage alright boo bitch, we're cooking alright, first damage of the combat and then I look directly at Maligna. I give him damage of the combat, and then I look, and I look in directly at Maligna.
Dan (Wren):I give him the nastiest look from his shoulder.
Timothy (DM):Hands on the knees. Their sword is kind of just dragging on the ground at this point. You're standing on their shoulder and you point like absorb this and they feel it, so they like start. You see their head turning towards you and you make direct eye contact in their big eye. That is the size of the vehicle like as I light their sip on fire and you see a smirk drag across their face. They are going to Regret everything, yeah you're going to regret everything.
Timothy (DM):They're going to make you regret everything, so they are actually going to try to grab you and slam you into the ground that will for sure kill me so not only does it hit, but that was a crit, bye, bye potion of speed.
Dan (Wren):oh, didn't you hear in the new addendum it hit. Did you crit? That was a crit, bye-bye potion of speed.
Russell (Upri):Oh, didn't you hear in the new addendum that came out this morning that gods can't crit in 5e.2?. In fact, crits actually heal player characters.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, um, I'm not gonna roll because there's a lot of dice. I'm gonna stop rolling dice for them, That'd be appreciated. It's 50 bludgeoning damage plus 21 fire damage. I'm out and then a strength saving throw or be not throw, it doesn't matter, I'm pro. They just like they've been laughing and then you pull this stone and they just snatch you off your shoulder and they just slam, like that flat palm you into the ground, just like crushing you into the ground.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, I am you feel all the bones in your body. You're just instant killed.
Dan (Wren):I mean technically not instant killed, because that would require another another like 50 points of damage, but I'm out cold.
Kai (Yonce):You wanted to kill one of us so badly.
Russell (Upri):It's like 90 now. You're out cold.
Timothy (DM):I am mangled, absolutely fucking mangled.
Russell (Upri):All your limbs are bent the wrong way. You're just on the ground.
Timothy (DM):And technically, because so they slam you into the ground and then they blast you with fire.
Dan (Wren):Oh, is that two failed saves?
Timothy (DM):Well, one failed save, because it's one bludgeoning takes you out and then they blast you with fire. Yeah.
Dan (Wren):Charred and man-made.
Timothy (DM):Char you into the ground, so that's one fail for you.
Russell (Upri):Here goes the haste.
Chris (Salvador):So that happens.
Timothy (DM):And then you see the other one, the angel, the turbine a little bit, but he is going to kind of sidestep this pillar of fire cast, looking at it in disgust. And then you see he raises his two arms after placing the bow on his back, and you start to see the sky open up with meteors check this out yep, so I copied the wrong one, got it.
Russell (Upri):Got it you would have killed us with Meteor. Probably would have been some friend of mine.
Timothy (DM):So I believe this is a four point thing. A who? I think there's four points that they can target. Yep, yeah, so they're going to target four points, including Ren. So everybody is Bye.
Russell (Upri):So long fail.
Dan (Wren):I'm banking on the fact that I still have a creepy ring that doesn't do anything.
Russell (Upri):Oh, we're just about to figure out what that does.
Dan (Wren):I know that's what I thought. Do I need to make a deck? Save from death? Don't worry about it.
Timothy (DM):No, you automatically fail, so it's another fail.
Kai (Yonce):Oh, I got a nat 20. Oh wait.
Russell (Upri):I'm deck saving from meteors, yeah deck, save from meteors.
Kai (Yonce):I got a nat 20, so it's a 24.
Timothy (DM):A 24, I believe we'll do it. Let me double check.
Russell (Upri):I'll go to 12.
Timothy (DM):19. Yikes, you said said what 24?
Russell (Upri):okay, that just makes it. That's the DC. Let's go half damage 1d wait, do I use my inspiration to rule or do I save it?
Chris (Salvador):you couldn't because your dexterity is only 1, so you have to get a 24, you have to beat a 24.
Russell (Upri):And a nat 20 doesn't work. Wow, why wasn't I who? Let me be a barbarian, I should have been a monk. Yeah, I was a monk, all right.
Timothy (DM):All right, I actually need to pull out. Do you need more dice?
Dan (Wren):No.
Timothy (DM):I'm using a dice roller.
Dan (Wren):I've got so many jars.
Russell (Upri):What happened to average?
Chris (Salvador):He likes to have big numbers. Well spells.
Timothy (DM):Don't give me the averages.
Russell (Upri):Oh, that's true, they don't.
Chris (Salvador):Only attacks. You add the smallest and the biggest dice. You're going to die.
Dan (Wren):We all are going to die.
Russell (Upri):I have things to resist. I can be so mad that I just don't die. You gonna die, we all gonna die. I have things to resist. I can be so mad that I just don't die.
Timothy (DM):Alright, I don't see a fork, we should just pop back up, pop back up. Huh, how much.
Russell (Upri):Oh, so it's doubled 114. You know what that just got me, that just got me 68 bludgeoning.
Timothy (DM):Don't you have resistance 34.
Russell (Upri):And those are simultaneously or one after the other? Simultaneously.
Timothy (DM):So that won't create a death, save it's these meteors, it's like four. It's these meteors. Four ginormous meteors just fall out of the sky and crash into each one of you.
Russell (Upri):Except for.
Timothy (DM):Yonce who's the only one who's able to jump out of the way Makes a lot of sense.
Dan (Wren):Are you down?
Russell (Upri):No, because I'm going to use my half-work passive where I just stay at one.
Timothy (DM):I just take 157 damage and the rock crumbles and falls apart around you and you're just laying there. One hit point. Is that how it goes?
Russell (Upri):One hit point and I have other abilities that will let me just stay up if I keep going down. So unless you can deal 214 damage to me to insta-kill me, I'm going to be here for a little while, all right.
Timothy (DM):Salvador are you down. Okay, salvador, are you dead? No, okay.
Chris (Salvador):I don't know how many hit points you have?
Russell (Upri):Yeah, I can't even Does that overkill you.
Chris (Salvador):By how much Do I hit the one with my sword?
Russell (Upri):Wait, it's Jan's turn. I think Jan drink your potion.
Dan (Wren):I'm barely recognizable at this point. Save yourself, just got Deliberated.
Timothy (DM):Yeah it's Jan's turn. Have a nice life. You're alive, you're the only one conscious right now I'm conscious, I'm a white boy. Yeah, you're conscious. All my leaves have burnt off.
Russell (Upri):It's just like completely mangled flesh at the toe.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, Yonce, what do you think?
Kai (Yonce):I don't know. I'm feeling sad because I don't know. I'm feeling sad because I don't know what to do and this is all not working. Everything's not working. I'm gonna look at Alice because she's conscious, right, if I got hit by the meteor.
Chris (Salvador):She'd probably get hit by the meteors yes, I was holding Alice.
Dan (Wren):She angled the meteor in a way to just get Sal.
Russell (Upri):Just clipped him in the head.
Timothy (DM):Clip Sal Fuck Okay, this went really off the rails y'all.
Russell (Upri):I'm sorry, it's not your fault, it's the DM's fault this is hilarious.
Kai (Yonce):No, Sal pushed her out the way.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, hey, if I could have dropped Thrones Sal, maybe Sal was like oh, alice, come back to us. And then threw her 20 feet. Yes, Timothy.
Chris (Salvador):Yeah, what's happening, what's happening, what's happening work slay um, you told us not to kill alice.
Dan (Wren):Look where we got to things are happening.
Timothy (DM):Don't worry about it, yancey. What are you? What are you doing?
Russell (Upri):yancey, hold me you just hear from from. Chardo, just hug it out.
Kai (Yonce):We did our best. Are, they are the two? Is everyone that is down at least in the same vicinity?
Timothy (DM):I'm gonna walk over and Because Ren was on Malignant's shoulder Slammed to the ground.
Timothy (DM):Salvador was from Grab me and like, slam me into and slammed into the ground. Salvador was from Grab me and slam me into the top of the tower You're in the ground.
Russell (Upri):On the battlefield. Oh, so we can't even see you. They're just stomping on the armies right now. Yeah.
Timothy (DM):The battle is basically done, because this god battle just started taking place on top of it they're just sitting on lawn chairs.
Dan (Wren):Whoever hasn't?
Russell (Upri):escaped and ran away is dead yeah, they're all just sharing joints while they watch the world end oh, these legendary heroes are just getting swatted like flies, fuck. I'm never gonna see my kids again.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, so okay, Did we set the scene enough, Yonce? What are?
Russell (Upri):we doing.
Kai (Yonce):So this was the final episode of shadows of prophecy for joining us here today. Um, we've enjoyed every episode except for this one we'll see you in the next episode.
Russell (Upri):Oh wait we might be able to try one more thing. I think y'all think I'm smarter than I actually am.
Kai (Yonce):Y'all realize I'm going to call out to y'all we might be able to try one more thing. I think y'all think I'm smarter than I actually am. Y'all realize I'm the least experienced.
Russell (Upri):Aubrey's gonna call out to Jan. Jan, do you?
Dan (Wren):I should laugh. I'm so sad. Do you have a?
Russell (Upri):smoke. I mean my throat's a little dry.
Timothy (DM):Oh, oh, I can't I mean my throat's a little dry.
Russell (Upri):Oh no, this is so sad, y'all come here.
Kai (Yonce):I run over to.
Russell (Upri):I have one last idea. What is it? Hold my hand and pray. I hold your hand. Can we try to call out to Artemis Arcanus?
Dan (Wren):Oh, artemis. Drawing the Greek pantheon into this, alright.
Russell (Upri):What do we say to her? Um, honestly, just stop this Like end everyone's Suffering. It's over. Reunite us is what I would say If we, if we are gonna be dead.
Kai (Yonce):No, okay, is what I would say. If we are going to be dead, I'm not on board with this.
Russell (Upri):No, you're not Okay, so I guess we'll have competing prayers.
Timothy (DM):Maybe the two of you should talk, role play this Spend time for a bit. Everything stays.
Russell (Upri):I think this is it the primal males?
Timothy (DM):think they've won. They're like they bit. Everything stays. I think this is it. I think they've won. They're like they did. I mean they did.
Russell (Upri):Oh wait, but Artemis loves us. And like loves her. Dream Arcanus.
Kai (Yonce):That's why I'm trying this. I'm gonna, as you're about to talk, I'm like shut up, shut up Shut up, you stupid dumb. Arcanus imbued us with powers.
Russell (Upri):She did this doesn't mean we are down, but we are not out.
Kai (Yonce):I mean, I could probably swing a few more times and do you feel like this world is worth saving? Absolutely, I do too, and if that's the case, then we'll make it work, whatever that may mean and however it may mean and however it can be done before 4.30pm stop okay.
Russell (Upri):I think I have an idea Artemis, artemis. Apre, apre. Can't remember. I have an idea. Artemis Aisha.
Chris (Salvador):Arcanist Apri Apri. Oh right, right, right right.
Russell (Upri):Apri can't remember names. Remember she calls everyone, not their name.
Kai (Yonce):I'm going to be like shut up. Just hold my hand and I will. Arcanist, we call on you. We call on you humbly and in desperation. You gave us your powers to help save this. We need your help. Please help us. Please save this world that you've created. Help, please help us. Please save this world that you've created. There was a reason that you love, that you love and that you've created for a reason.
Timothy (DM):Yonce.
Dan (Wren):Oh fuck, Sleepy bitch. I look up.
Kai (Yonce):You beautiful.
Timothy (DM):Yonce.
Kai (Yonce):Oh babe, what about me? Shut up, I cover, I cover up, I cover a priest's mouth.
Russell (Upri):Yonjou's at a pillow.
Kai (Yonce):Wait, hold on, we're being serious. I'm holding you and I'm like Arcanist, please.
Timothy (DM):I praise the thank you Arcanist please. I'm afraid that you've carried so much that I can offer only sacrifice. You must take them into yourselves. Do you accept their gifts?
Kai (Yonce):That's what I wanted to learn for myself.
Russell (Upri):Who's she talking about Yon Like? This is a maybe. Does it have to be both of us from myself. Who's she talking about Yon Like?
Kai (Yonce):cause it's a maybe. Uh, does it have to be both of us? I think so. I'm asking Arcanist. Shh shh shh. I thought you were talking. Remembering. I have an amazing plan for you.
Timothy (DM):They will go where they are needed to save us all.
Dan (Wren):That's where they're needed right now.
Kai (Yonce):I ate a charred pancake on the floor. I'm gonna hug Uprae, promise me when you get out of here.
Russell (Upri):That you live your life. Ya know, I'll go with you.
Kai (Yonce):No, we need someone here. We need someone. All I want is for you to be happy with our family, and all I ask is that when you're a little older, you create your own little group of misfits and call them the mayors. And I hug Uprie.
Russell (Upri):And I say goodbye God.
Kai (Yonce):I love you. I love you too, and I let go of Upri and I walk to the furthest part of the Castle and I whisper to Arcanist, I'm ready, and I close my eyes and I open my body up this energy welling up inside of you.
Timothy (DM):It's like a climax. It overwhelms your senses and fills you to the brim, and you hear all of their voices, silenced as they become, incorporated into you. You gain 500 hit points.
Chris (Salvador):What.
Timothy (DM):And your spell modifier increases by 5. And I have three inspiration tokens to hand out. These are for you two and this is for Ren. What did I do Flip me off. Fair enough yep, I'll take it.
Dan (Wren):So, I have questions, but go ahead I'm dead.
Russell (Upri):You're a charred pile of flesh and bone somehow still alive.
Timothy (DM):But barely, it's just your heart to clarify for everybody in the room in, even probably the audience. Um, you just absorbed some of the souls that were meant for Arcanist.
Dan (Wren):Oh, so it's not like a titan or something, so she brought the souls to her.
Timothy (DM):She used her powers to bring them back into her. Well so.
Kai (Yonce):I'm not dead To reunite.
Russell (Upri):No, you're still.
Timothy (DM):No, you gained 500.
Russell (Upri):You're like a god now.
Timothy (DM):Um, but Start, Eldritch, blast him.
Russell (Upri):No, you gained 500. You're like a god.
Timothy (DM):Now Start Eldritch, blast him Instead of reuniting them with herself, she siphoned them off into you. And this is the real power of the connection that you've forged with Arcanist is that you now are her aspect. You are an aspect of Arcaness.
Kai (Yonce):And for the audience. What does that mean?
Timothy (DM):You are an extension of me.
Kai (Yonce):Also I'm a semi-god. Now Demi, demi-god, I'm Hercules. You're Hercules, so as I feel the power, I'm going to say Bless my soul Earth was on a roll Earth's another week. In every Greek opinion poll you said I gained 500 hit points. And what else do?
Dan (Wren):I gain, bro. That's another week in every Greek opinion. Bro, Um what else? You said I gained 500 hit points and what else do I get? Just get bored.
Chris (Salvador):It's great.
Timothy (DM):Just have it all. Thank you for that.
Kai (Yonce):That made me really happy. Um wait what you said.
Timothy (DM):I gained 500 hit points. To gain 500 hit points and you also get a plus 5 to your spell modifier. I think that's charisma for you. So your charisma modifier goes up by 5. Which is a significant amount, because then all of your attacks are going to be plus 5. Your saves will be plus 5.
Kai (Yonce):So I want y'all to know I have now 647 hit points, Wow.
Dan (Wren):Aubrey, you felt like you had a lot.
Russell (Upri):What's that? It almost sounded like a dead person was being spiteful I.
Timothy (DM):It was also 1% of the population.
Russell (Upri):Oh, let's hope that we don't know anyone in that 1%.
Kai (Yonce):Oh, bye Cyril.
Timothy (DM):Wouldn't that be nice.
Dan (Wren):Wait, it's 1%. But is it the 1%? Oh, it's all the rich people just.
Kai (Yonce):I'm going to as I Wait. So my spell One more time. My spell modifier is plus 5 now.
Timothy (DM):Your charisma is plus 5 to what it was. I would go to your charisma.
Russell (Upri):I just add 10. Do your charisma, that's awesome, that's awesome.
Dan (Wren):I think you have to go to the character. It's plus five.
Kai (Yonce):So I'll just say plus. Just add five every time you cast a spell when somebody needs to do DC, I'm going to as I do this because I was expecting this to die. So I'm going to as I do this because I was expecting this to die. So I'm going to be. I'm going to be honest and be like what do I do with this? You hear Uprie.
Russell (Upri):Eldritch blast.
Kai (Yonce):Well, how many Eldritch blasts can I do now that I'm level infinity?
Russell (Upri):I guess Potion of Speed.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, you still got Potion of Speed, just become a Gatling gun.
Russell (Upri):Yes, Also I need water. What? Level are you?
Kai (Yonce):I'm level 18, technically. Level 18.
Russell (Upri):So I think that's three Eldritch Blasts yeah.
Kai (Yonce):I think it's four now.
Russell (Upri):Oh, it goes up to four.
Dan (Wren):Hold on, I it's four now. Oh, it goes up to four. Hold on, I gotta get yeah, because in boulder's gate 12 is three.
Russell (Upri):Okay, so you? So if you take the potion of speed, you then get two actions. So then you get up to eight eldritch blasts per turn that's absolutely yeah, all at plus five from what you're which, with the plus four, is plus nine. Damage to all of those on what you roll, plus your maddening hex.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, I get four beams after level 17.
Russell (Upri):Okay, so if you drink the potion of speed, you're up to eight.
Kai (Yonce):Alright, I'm gonna drink the potion of speed. Alright. And can I do something that may not? You can easily say no. Can I do something that may not? You can easily say no. Can I use my inspiration tokens? If we're going to be very metaphysical with it, can I give them a way to help heal or revive the people that are around me, like I am a demigod, so I'm willing to sacrifice.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, maybe she diverts I said 0.001 of the souls to heal.
Kai (Yonce):Um, everybody would want have to accept this gift. Well, who's dead? Well, they're both down.
Dan (Wren):I'm fine, I'm going to and I can't give it out dead, dead right, but I'm also going to give it, but I'm also going to give it to Alice.
Timothy (DM):I'm also going to give it to Alice to see if yeah, so we're not going to spend inspiration tokens, but you could give up some of the things that I just gave you to other people. So if you have 500, you've pulled 500 hit points, if you want to give it to other people and they accept it, you can. You have that plus five. If people and they accept it, you can. You have that plus five. If you want to give any of those pluses to anybody else, you can if they accept it. Okay, the cost was one percent of the population what do y'all want?
Dan (Wren):I'm so far away I don't even know if you know where I am at this point this is this is arcanist, siphoning your power, and I didn't make that connection with her away.
Timothy (DM):I don't even know if you know where I am at this point.
Dan (Wren):This is Arcanist siphoning her power and I didn't make that connection with her, so I don't even know if I could accept it.
Chris (Salvador):Yeah, I didn't make that connection.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, that's actually true. The two of you, I would say, cannot Nevermind. The two of you have other things.
Chris (Salvador):Yeah, yeah, I'm going to.
Kai (Yonce):The two of you have other things.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, I'm going to, I could stay up for a few rounds.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, just hold on to it.
Kai (Yonce):I would say hold on to it. What I will do is I have in my bag. I have a couple of potions that I guess.
Dan (Wren):I won't really need anymore. Just force feed Alice, yeah.
Russell (Upri):See if we can pick a leg up, alice.
Chris (Salvador):She's not like a pink mist somewhere.
Russell (Upri):She's on the ground, she's not just a cloud of pink floating away on the wind.
Timothy (DM):The two of you are like crumpled into each other.
Russell (Upri):Alright, if you throw them to me, I'll go dump some and sell. I'm going to give you Sal, and Sal can do some healing.
Kai (Yonce):I have a potion of healing supreme and then I have a potion of healing greater, so I just give you, I toss them both to you. I want to say you, you deal with Alice and and Sal I will deal with, I guess, everything else. Oh gosh, I didn't realize being a demigod would be this stressful, um, with someone with anxiety. This is a lot, um, and as I'm doing that, I'm going to this how many, how many evil things are in front of me right now it's malignant and salarius, just two, just the two.
Kai (Yonce):I'm going to. He's the closest because I get two actions, um, and I think I'm going to. I do have finger of death, but that's a con save of, so that's a risk that I don't want to take Well, it's higher.
Timothy (DM):Haki what posture do you have going on there with the rest of your party dead or dying? Do you stand to defy me, Yonce Go?
Kai (Yonce):finger the shit out of her Z of six pinch say go finger the shit out of her Z if it means saving them, I will fight you until the end of days. And I levitate. And as I'm levitating, you see this white light circle around me. I'm going for it and my jumpsuit is now white. I have a very stylish white streak in my hair.
Dan (Wren):Storm.
Kai (Yonce):Exactly. And yeah, arcanist has chosen me to stop you.
Timothy (DM):Arcanist can't even save herself that's the thing.
Kai (Yonce):You don't know what Arcanist is capable of. Your own ego can lead to your downfall, will lead to your downfall, and I shoot four Eldritch Blasts. Alright Do it, do it, do it. I feel like Tina Fletcher.
Russell (Upri):Inspiration.
Kai (Yonce):Don't worry, I'm gonna. What's their AC?
Timothy (DM):26. You have a plus 5.
Chris (Salvador):To your plus All of those get a plus 15. Yeah.
Dan (Wren):None of them.
Russell (Upri):They're all single digit. They're all really low. Uh, it would, none of them. They're all single digit.
Timothy (DM):They're all really low. Oh my god, it's technically free to troll, but I realize it's fine, yeah, you're a demigod, no.
Russell (Upri):Because he's re-rolling the attack and one attack is four beams.
Timothy (DM):Okay, cool, cool, cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah, sorry, cool, yeah, yeah, yeah, it is one, thank you. Do I get inspiration?
Russell (Upri):No, you're not getting more inspiration for flipping me off, one's a nat 20.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, yeah, yeah. So plus 15 is a 35.
Timothy (DM):Okay, but it's a crit, yeah one's a 17,.
Kai (Yonce):So plus 15 is a 32. Yep One's a 25. That Yep One's a 25. That will miss. I'm going to use Pack of the Talisman on that one Gorgeous. And that's a 4, so that one also hits. And then, oh, I did not see which one this was before I milked it, just roll it again. That's also 17, so that's a 32.
Timothy (DM):Okay, 4. Okay, roll those d10s.
Kai (Yonce):So is it 5d10?
Russell (Upri):now it is? Yeah, I think it's 5d10. It's 5d10s, but then each beam gets the plus 9?.
Timothy (DM):Each beam gets the plus 9, yeah.
Russell (Upri):Okay, so whatever 9 times 5 is 45. Is it 45 or a minute I had to do the elementary school trick, so roll 5 d10s and add 45 to them, that's a 12.
Dan (Wren):I rolled a 12 on this d10.
Kai (Yonce):I'll put a rock in this one. One was a 10, so 10, 16, 17, 20, 10, 1, so 10, 16, 17, 20, 21, 26. 26 plus 45 is 71. All right, I'm going to use Madding Hex. So plus 4 to that 75. And this is my first action. I have two.
Russell (Upri):So you can shoot another four beams. Go again.
Timothy (DM):Yonce has entered the fight everyone.
Russell (Upri):Gatling gun one of those.
Kai (Yonce):Hell yeah, I'm gonna do witch. Can I just do witch's?
Timothy (DM):fall you can it's not? Do the.
Chris (Salvador):Eldritch. Blast.
Kai (Yonce):I'm so sorry, but you're a warlock Alright, so One is I'm so sorry, but you're a warlock alright, so one is.
Russell (Upri):One is a 27, so all four hit essentially but none of them were at 20 so roll your 40, 10, and that's another 45 uh, minus 9 cause it's 3, so whatever, 4 times 9 is Wait, why? Oh, it would only have been 4 times 9, because you don't add the modifier twice when you crit. Oh yeah, so it would have technically been minus 9. Damage that last one.
Kai (Yonce):We'll keep it though so 36. We'll keep it. We'll keep it so 36.
Russell (Upri):We'll keep it.
Kai (Yonce):We'll keep it, so that's 21. 25 plus 36. 61. 61. 61.
Timothy (DM):So in a single round he did 151 damage.
Chris (Salvador):Welcome to being a god.
Timothy (DM):And you can do that next round too. So as you just Into Maligna, you start seeing like she's just getting like staggered backwards and her face, she was like smirking, she was laughing, she was like very cocky and her face goes stunning. She just blocks eye contact with you and raises her sword, bob and weave, does a 10 plus 20, 30 hit, 10 plus 20.
Kai (Yonce):Well, being a demigod, what is my AC now? It's still a thing.
Timothy (DM):So, yeah, that's going to hit you for 61 bludgeoning plus 36 fire 61 bludgeoning plus 36 fire.
Kai (Yonce):Do I get my resistance to fire back?
Timothy (DM):Yeah, we can say that, so let's have it back, let's have it back, the spirits of the 1%.
Timothy (DM):they protect you the spirits of the 1% protect me now.
Kai (Yonce):I gotta do math, hold up. Must be nice 14 takeaways. So the first 61 points left me now with 586 points, and now mine is 18. So now I have 568 points.
Russell (Upri):I'm so proud of you.
Kai (Yonce):I look at you, help them them. It's not my turn yet it's not what's a turn so Gorgeous they are Going To.
Timothy (DM):I just need arrows. We're gonna be simple, so the cherub is going to use arrows. We're going to be simple, so the cherub is going to shoot two arrows at you. That's a 10 plus whatever and a 17 plus whatever, so 23 and 30. Those both hit, so you're going to take a total of 30 piercing damage.
Chris (Salvador):Yonce, what's your AC right now?
Kai (Yonce):Because Haste gives you 2 to DC. Oh, it's AC.
Chris (Salvador):Yeah, oh, it's still AC. It was a 23.
Timothy (DM):Oh yeah, yeah. So 30 piercing damage and then 54 radiant damage. What's the point of?
Kai (Yonce):making me a demon. I can't Whoa. You do a lot of damage. I'm also going to make a new damage.
Russell (Upri):Whoa, you do a lot of damage. We got a few more rounds. I'm also going to start cutting off toes.
Timothy (DM):All right, that brings us to upgrade At one hit point. What are you doing?
Kai (Yonce):I'm drinking a haste potion You're going to drink the haste potion.
Timothy (DM):Are you accepting Arcanist's gift?
Russell (Upri):Wait, did I guess them?
Timothy (DM):them, do you want to I?
Russell (Upri):feel like it's kind of a waste because, like, even if you healed me 50, I'm just going to go down to one anyway and I could probably stay up for arcanist except, do you want the full gift?
Timothy (DM):you want another one percent of the population not, oh you're own part of the gift.
Kai (Yonce):Oh, that was not clear. See what happens when you don't give up.
Russell (Upri):See, I thought I wasn't the chosen one. So, we're the chosen. Sibbies Is what I'm hearing.
Kai (Yonce):Yes.
Russell (Upri):Oh yeah, I'll take it.
Timothy (DM):Population has died in the last six seconds.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, but I don't know that that wasn't explained in the fine print. Oh you, feel it.
Timothy (DM):You feel, you feel their souls, you hear their voices. Silence, you embody all of them.
Dan (Wren):It's for the greater good, and they'll become one with Arcanist again eventually.
Kai (Yonce):They're technically one with us. Who is part with Arcanist again eventually? They're technically one with us.
Timothy (DM):Who is part of Arcanist, so 500 hit points and you get a plus 5 to your I think constitution for all your shit.
Russell (Upri):Constitution's my spellcasting.
Timothy (DM):Would you rather have constitution? I'd rather have strength. Alright, then you get strength.
Kai (Yonce):Thank, you Plus 5 to strength modifier, then you get strength Plus five to strength modified your outfit also turned white.
Timothy (DM):You Hulk the fuck out this 1% of the population.
Russell (Upri):you just see Uppery roiding out Does it affect your tree yeah so you know that really cunty Pokemon that's like the femtree that's swinging out. Andree, that's who I am and I'm serving. Okay, my brain is going to break because I'm going to have to do man. So, plus five, plus 18 to hit things. Okay. So I'm up, I have 500 hit points which I Yep Potion of speed, run over and dump a Potion in Sal.
Timothy (DM):Alright.
Russell (Upri):I'm just gonna tilt Sal up, pull the jaw back, put it in, and I'm just gonna start hitting the bottom to make it go faster.
Chris (Salvador):You gotta swirl it to get a little cyclone in there.
Russell (Upri):Just hold his head. It goes down and you start hitting the throat Like you're massaging it head it starts shaking, so it goes down and it starts like hitting the throat.
Dan (Wren):Like you're massaging it. Yeah Well, I'm with cats, you're like, alright?

Chris (Salvador):You've had it for that long yeah.
Russell (Upri):What do you mean?
Timothy (DM):Well, I had two and I used 24 plus 20.

Kai (Yonce):We can't have her. How much health does.
Dan (Wren):Alice get back. Do you want me to roll that 10? Yeah.
Kai (Yonce):My thought is that you can cast Healing Word on her.
Russell (Upri):I think it's only 44 plus 4 for a greater 44 plus 4 for a greater 44 plus 4?
Timothy (DM):Yeah, so that would be 12.
Russell (Upri):Okay works. Did any of that count as actions, or do I still have two actions to womp?
Timothy (DM):Those are bonus action and action.
Russell (Upri):My bonus action was already to drink my healing potion, or my speed of potion speed. Oh, okay then. Yeah, so would those be my two actions.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, that would have to be your two actions.

Timothy (DM):hit.
Russell (Upri):It does.
Timothy (DM):Oh, actually it's a 33. Does a 33 hit? Yes, it does. So that is going to be a 50 bludgeoning damage plus 21 fire alright, so the bludgeoning is halved to 25 yes, and then 21, fire um, and then make a DC 32 strength saving throw or be knocked prone or eh, not gonna grapple okay, so I have advantage, it's plus 12.

Chris (Salvador):with your new life. I'm going to cast Mass Cure Wounds on both me and Alice.
Timothy (DM):Do you want to roll a d6 to see if your wish spell recharges Sure?
Russell (Upri):Oh.
Timothy (DM):Fair enough. Uh, cause, just to re-clarify, I know a lot of shit has happened. Recharge it, sure. Oh, fair enough, just to re-clarify. I know a lot of shit has happened. Oh really, yeah, nice, you detached Alice from her powers. Her powers are continuing to implode without her, so right now, the powers of the void that she set in motion are just continuing like a ticking time bomb, and there is no way to convince an inanimate object to stop.
Chris (Salvador):I'm going to cast wish again, alright.
Dan (Wren):Wishbot over here.
Chris (Salvador):Honestly, the first thing I said, where I said I wish alice was a better person would work much better than this one. Um, this is a wonderful.
Timothy (DM):She just suffers from depression.
Chris (Salvador):I meant better as like she's better, like she feels better, she feels morally better yeah, you have to be careful with the wish spell, weird Ape.
Timothy (DM):I know it's a monkey paw. Yeah, monkey paw genie bullshit. Yeah, but yes.
Chris (Salvador):I'm going to first move Alice out of the way. I'm going to usher Alice physically to somewhere that's protected by the tower and then I'm going to cast West Regatta. I'm going to give her a pep talk. I'm going to pull out my leadership hat with a big L on it, give her a pep talk. I'm going to pull out my leadership hat with a big l on it and I'm going to say alice, I know things are looking real dire, but look at your friends, look at upri. I know you, you know upri, you've worked with upri. She's a demigod now look at yonsei.
Kai (Yonce):Yonsei is a demigod. I'm like yeah.
Chris (Salvador):You can be a demigod too. I imagine you just gotta. I know it's deep inside of you, I know you're hurting, but I need to do this and I put my hands on her shoulder and I believe in you and I believe that you can. Oh Said things right and I'm gonna cast Wish so that she's reconnected.
Kai (Yonce):And she's better. And can I wait, can I add, it's pure depression, can I?
Dan (Wren):add SSRIs. I full stick your roll out of my butt.
Chris (Salvador):Out of my bag.
Kai (Yonce):I hand you the Cane's Donuts that are upstairs.
Chris (Salvador):Yeah, the Cane's Donuts.
Dan (Wren):Your magical Lexapro.
Timothy (DM):Okay, so I will say what this does mechanically is it reconnects her with the black hole and powers of the void that are tearing down the wall, and it also does so in a way that she is cognizant of her surroundings and seems more receptive to discussion. But she doesn't just stop.
Chris (Salvador):Alice, I'm going to be here with you. Yonce and Opry are here with you too. You got team and Ren is going to. I'm going to get Ren real soon, yeah.
Timothy (DM):Her body lifts up and she's like looking down at you. She goes Salvador. What are you doing? Stop this.
Chris (Salvador):I'm doing my best, let it go, let us disappear and fade. No, can you, alice? I know things feel bleak. I've felt that it's hard to enact the change that you want to, and that a lot of your actions seem meaningless and that there's a lot of odds stacked.
Timothy (DM):no existence is suffering, it is only pain only those seem meaningless and that there's a lot of odds stacked. No existence is suffering, it is only pain. Only those who take are the ones who can keep their light, and then, at the end, we all cease.
Chris (Salvador):Alice, do you remember Pan Pan? Do you remember what she did as her profession, that they did as her profession?
Timothy (DM):That they did as their profession. She looks at you in silence and you see the she starts pulling the walls in faster. She's like raging. And we're going to pick that conversation up because we're at the six second.
Dan (Wren):Six second round Round Time's up.
Timothy (DM):About KPHI.
Chris (Salvador):Oh gotcha, they wrote RIP Kate.
Timothy (DM):With the reconnection of Alice. Both of the Primordial's attention is drawn to you, salvador, because you just bucked up the really good thing that they had going for them, and so, regardless of being hit with a Gatling gun, they're coming after you.
Chris (Salvador):Gosh, I wanted to cast death ward this entire time, but I don't have actions um they are going to.
Timothy (DM):I can only attack, I can't uh, so again the cherub daddy raises his arms and the meteors rise or not rise fall from the sky um they're gonna send two of them towards, and the meteors rise or not, rise, fall from the sky.
Chris (Salvador):They're going to send two of them towards you.
Timothy (DM):We are undercover because I moved us to a part of the tower that was covered. Oh, you went into the thing. Yeah, okay, they're still going to bring. Okay, actually they're going to rain all four on you. So let's see how long this fortress? Well, didn't you slap them to them then?
Kai (Yonce):You slapped them to them.
Russell (Upri):Not for saves, never mind Literally. Just attacks and ability checks, not saves why? I don't know. Good luck, saves why?
Timothy (DM):I don't know, Good luck. So I'm gonna still want you to do a dexterity saving for Salvador.
Dan (Wren):You cowards.
Timothy (DM):And then so I'm gonna do oh yeah, I'll use my inspiration. What is 80d6 everybody?
Dan (Wren):like what do you want? An 80 times 6?
Chris (Salvador):that'd be a medium of at least 240. That's a natural 20. Dodged.
Russell (Upri):What's your modifier for deck saves? Welcome to my life. Okay, so the damage?
Timothy (DM):is going to be 306 bludgeoning.
Russell (Upri):Wait, what was the DC 26.?
Timothy (DM):DC is a 20.
Kai (Yonce):But they're covered.
Dan (Wren):Is there anything that we can do for that?
Russell (Upri):Yeah, I don't have any reactions.
Timothy (DM):Yes, so what we're going to do is the Fortress gets hit for 306 bludgeoning.
Russell (Upri):Oh, okay, so the.
Timothy (DM):Fortress gets hit for 306 bludgeoning. Okay, fortress gets hit for 306 bludgeoning, it goes down in 200. So 100 of that damage is going to pass, right.
Russell (Upri):And this is Maligna.
Timothy (DM):This is Solara, so you're going to take 100 bludgeoning damage. So I think you go down again, yeah. So you go down again. Alice is reconnected, though she's fine, she doesn't get her shit, but you're down again. And, um, but you're down again, Um, and Maligna laughs Um, having been like reeling up to like like slash through this town, um, um, so then she pivots the instead. Uh, does the 29 hit? Yes?
Kai (Yonce):can I cast my hellish rebuke as a reaction?
Russell (Upri):she's a fire demon lady. Save it for the other one that's true it might heal her.
Chris (Salvador):Honestly, honestly, that's true.
Timothy (DM):So that is going to be.
Kai (Yonce):Wait, what's the attack, what's the spell?
Timothy (DM):They're just hitting you with a sword 61 bludgeoning plus 36.
Russell (Upri):But I have Sentinel, so I'm going to use my reaction to melee attack her toe because she attacked somebody other than me yes, yes, yes, yes. But I'm also laying down. Can I attack while laying down?
Timothy (DM):Yeah, sure.
Russell (Upri):Is it a disadvantage? I don't think so.
Timothy (DM):mechanically it's a big toe. Can I attack while laying down? Yeah, sure Is it at disadvantage.
Dan (Wren):I don't think so. Mechanically it's a big toe. That's not even the big toe.
Russell (Upri):It's just a big toe. Does a? What is it Plus 18? Does a 28 hit her? Yes, it does. She's going to take. Oh, but I re-roll twos here. She rolled one, twos. I went, roll more twos. I went from two twos to a two and a one. It's fine, it's plus 18. So a three plus 18, plus four, so 22. 25 slashing damage to her toe, gorgeous. Does she have wings?
Kai (Yonce):No Cool.
Russell (Upri):I'm going to try to lop off all of her toes and see if it doesn't.

So you see the Perverter break out of their chain, Um, and the perverter is a slinky, sly fuckface, Um, and they just like accordion from their chains through the ring and into the material plane. You just see them slink out. This is the one that's obsessed with tentacles.
Kai (Yonce):This one really likes tentacles.
Timothy (DM):There's a lot in the world so they can have fun with that so you just see them slip out into the material plane. So yeah, that's important. Great Ren, what would you like to do?
Dan (Wren):Make a death save. I guess I saw you rolled an do make a death save. I guess. I saw you rolled an 18 oh did I great how many saves and fails? One success, two failures. I haven't been to.
Timothy (DM):I'm gonna make their legendary actions pretty fast. We're just gonna get two arrows and a sword. One arrow is a nat 1. The other is a 15 plus 13 is a 28 on up 3.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, why is this all going to me? That was up 3. Oh no, I meant I'm happy that's finally all going to me. That was upright. Oh no, I meant I'm happy that's finally not going to me.
Timothy (DM):So that will be 15 piercing plus 27 radiant, and then the sword attack from Maligna is going to be a 23 to hit and, yeah, they're still targeting.
Kai (Yonce):Hmm.
Timothy (DM):Um, you're the one that Gatling got um and they took out the person they wanted to kill.
Kai (Yonce):Um, okay.
Timothy (DM):Uh, so then that would be another 60.
Kai (Yonce):Wait, I have something called Anthropic Ward I forget. So when someone rolls an attack roll against you, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on that roll.
Timothy (DM):Great disadvantage they still hit.
Kai (Yonce):Well, I tried.
Timothy (DM):Um so 61 bludgeoning.
Kai (Yonce):Can it just just beat 61?.
Timothy (DM):Plus 36.
Chris (Salvador):What'd you?
Timothy (DM):get to have.
Kai (Yonce):Oh yeah, that's. True. How exciting.
Timothy (DM):How exciting, but it's your turn, gatlingum.
Kai (Yonce):So now I'm 100. Do it again. I have a question. I have a 9th level spell called Imprisonment. Would that actually Would that work? Wait with hey. So I still get two actions or just once.
Chris (Salvador):With. You get an action, you get two actions for a minute, yeah so. You still get two actions for a minute, yeah so you still have two actions All right.
Timothy (DM):Imprisonment would work if they fail their save. What's your save?
Kai (Yonce):Well, their save, it needs to be a Hold on. I gotta go back this. It is a wisdom save of 18.
Timothy (DM):Plus 5.
Kai (Yonce):Yes, so they need to pass 23.
Timothy (DM):It's only 18? What's your spell save?
Kai (Yonce):No, right. Here it says wisdom of 18, so I'm adding the 5.
Timothy (DM):Oh.
Kai (Yonce):Am I not supposed to? Do this? Wait where?
Timothy (DM):are you getting the spell? Save of 18?. What is your spell save?
Kai (Yonce):Wait, I'm just looking at imprisonment. It says hit or DC. It was 18.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, so you add 5 to that.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, so 23.
Timothy (DM):It's not based on your spell save.
Dan (Wren):It is. That is their spell save.
Kai (Yonce):It says a wisdom of 18.
Dan (Wren):That is their spell save.
Timothy (DM):That's your spell save.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, it's, that is their spell save. That's your spell save plus 5 would be 23.
Timothy (DM):So if you think that they will fail on a 23, do it it's pretty high I don't know what their wisdom is.
Kai (Yonce):I don't know either.
Timothy (DM):They'll have legendary resistance, just eldritch blast nobody has burned any of their legendary resistances yeah.
Kai (Yonce):Okay, I'll just do Eldritch Blast yeah.
Russell (Upri):We kind of just have to wop and chip away.
Kai (Yonce):For someone who told us to not make this fighting scene last long. Someone's making it very long for us, so this is going to be my first action, alright, so two of them are going to pass. Two of them are going to pass. Alright, do you want to use any inspiration? Um, I'll save them for now. Alright, so your d10s 8 plus 18 is 26, plus Maddening Hex is oh, I already lost the number. 8 plus 18 is 26, plus 4 is 30. Are we even making dents to them Like?
Dan (Wren):do they look worse for wear Um?
Timothy (DM):they look upset.
Dan (Wren):Oh, I guess I yeah you got the one attack on them.
Timothy (DM):They look upset Like Maligna is looking pretty scratched.
Kai (Yonce):keep going, yeah, uh, do your next, uh attack um, I know y'all keep saying do Eldritch Blast, but I'm bored with it. Um, I have Witch's, I have witch's bolt.
Russell (Upri):Anything that's a save is probably not going to work.
Kai (Yonce):No, it's an attack. Oh cool, and I'm going to use the witch's bolt in my ring spell store. Can I do that?
Timothy (DM):Yeah, what's the save?
Kai (Yonce):It's not a save, it's an attack roll.
Timothy (DM):Sorry, make the attack roll. Ac 26. Yeah, what's the save? It's not a save, it's an attack roll. Sorry, it's an attack roll.
Russell (Upri):AC 26. He he, he.
Kai (Yonce):Alright, perfect, plus 15 is a 36.
Timothy (DM):Alright, that'll hit. How much damage do you do? What level are you casting?
Kai (Yonce):this at. Well, it's at the. Oh, I can cast it at the fifth. Okay, so it's 5d12. Oh, does my plus 9 go into that too?
Timothy (DM):No, no, it's just for your ultra class.
Kai (Yonce):So 12 plus 11 is 23, 24, 37. Maybe it wasn't worth it. That was pretty good.
Dan (Wren):But now that's locked on, you can just automatically do that with one of your actions, every turn, guaranteed.
Timothy (DM):It is concentration.
Russell (Upri):Technically both actions right.
Dan (Wren):Oh, that's true.
Kai (Yonce):And I'm gonna look at, I'm gonna look at Alice as I'm doing this. I'm gonna kind of continue what you were saying, what I was saying to them. I know that you feel like this world is suffering and it needs to end. For years I was trying to find my sister and all I wanted to do was hide, disappear and hide. But if I would have done that, I would never have saved her. I would never have seen her again. Yes, life can sometimes be hard and it can be rough and it can really take a lot out of you and when some days you don't want to get up, you don't want to continue on. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't. You keep getting up, you keep trying. I know that life has not been tough, but you have a family now. You have me, you have Sal, you have Ren, you have Upri, you have the strays you have. Where has that?
Timothy (DM):pain brought you here have. Where has that pain brought you here?
Kai (Yonce):Trying to save the world because I still believe in it and I still believe in you.
Timothy (DM):Give me a persuasion check.
Chris (Salvador):Any of your charisma boosted some.
Dan (Wren):And you have two inspirations. Let's go.
Kai (Yonce):Well, my charisma's a plus eight. Wait, what? What's your charisma?
Chris (Salvador):right now. What's your persuasion? My persuasion is plus 8. Wait what? What's your charisma right now? What's your persuasion?
Kai (Yonce):My persuasion is plus 4.
Russell (Upri):Plus 9.
Kai (Yonce):Plus 9. Ready to ask for a question.
Timothy (DM):Oh, an inspiration token.
Kai (Yonce):Plus 9, so that's a dirty 20. A dirty 20. And I'm going to use the fuck up the talisman. I'm going to.
Dan (Wren):just I have so many of them now, so I'm just Wait, and you got slapped by.
Russell (Upri):Oh, one D3?.
Dan (Wren):And that a D3, which is a D6 divided by two, round it up.
Kai (Yonce):Three, three, and that's one, so four, 24, 24 yes, you see her composure breaks a little bit.
Timothy (DM):she's had this like fierce, like rage on her face that she's been wearing and it breaks slightly as she becomes like this puzzled look and you notice that the magic coming out of her hands starts to slutter.
Kai (Yonce):I'm gonna keep looking at her. All that pain that you feel, all that pain that you have. I am going to give some of it to me. You will always have someone to talk to. I will not be leaving you.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, so we're going to try to hit you with a sword. Does a 37 hit Sure? Yeah, so you this sword and you see you like um maligna, shrieking as she brings a sword down on you for 60 bludgeoning damage plus 36 fire um, and she's like no, no, stop it. And then she turns over to Solaris and she goes after that one and points at you and you're going to get two arrows, so that'll be 11 plus 13 is 24, and 18 plus 13 is 31.
Kai (Yonce):So total.
Timothy (DM):So those will both hit. So for 30 piercing damage and 54 radiant damage.
Kai (Yonce):I'm about to die. Oh boy, uhhhh, uprate damage. I'm about to die.
Timothy (DM):Oh boy, Uh uprate.
Russell (Upri):Housekeeping question. Should I start pre-rolling when it's not my turn to speed things up, or is that weird?
Timothy (DM):If you want to, if you are sure what you want to do, you can. Yes, it's just gonna be attacks.
Russell (Upri):Okay, alright, I didn't. Yes, it's just going to be attacks.
Timothy (DM):Okay, let me make attacks, Alright.
Russell (Upri):I didn't pre-roll because I wanted to ask first. That is going to be a 28. A 28 will hit. That is going to be 11 plus 18, 29 slashing damage. Alright, what's their AC?
Timothy (DM):26.
Russell (Upri):Miss. Um, that is Going to hit Woo. 12 plus 18, 30 slashing damage Natural 20. Yes, oh, that's a good one. Okay, so much extra dice, so I have to roll 2d6 eight times and I reroll all ones and twos.
Kai (Yonce):Wait, can I retcon my Hellish Rebuke since?
Timothy (DM):you never cast it.
Kai (Yonce):No, because they hit me.
Timothy (DM):My reaction oh, you want to do the Hellish Rebuke.
Kai (Yonce):No, the other one hit me.
Timothy (DM):Yes, you can Hellish, Rebuke them. They are 200 feet away. How about they give you the portion 10. They are 200 feet away.
Kai (Yonce):I don't think you can get more 10. You're good at a second 20. 29.
Timothy (DM):They're just standing 38. They're just standing away, you heroes, listening to whatever Maligna says 38 plus 11.
Kai (Yonce):47.
Russell (Upri):I thought it was 49., 49. Plus 9. 58., 58. Plus 8. 66. Plus 8., 66., 66., 71., 78. I think that's 8., 78 plus 7., 78 plus 7. Help me, 85. Plus 18. 95. Plus 8.
Kai (Yonce):78 plus seven 78 plus seven Help me 85 plus 18. 95 plus eight. No, 18 plus 85 is 130.
Russell (Upri):I do 103 slashing damage you cut a toe off. Can I cut off all her toes on one foot.
Dan (Wren):You jump up, you do like the anime, like full rotation swing yeah you slash down to the bone across her foot.
Timothy (DM):This is a tackling type thing.
Russell (Upri):And then, as my free action, I spit.
Timothy (DM):She begins to stumble.
Russell (Upri):That's my turn.
Chris (Salvador):Can you use any of your HP on Ren? I'm so far away.
Russell (Upri):I thought canonically we established we don't know where Ren is. They were thrown off the tower.
Dan (Wren):I was thrown off the tower and smashed him before and they connected to the yeah.
Russell (Upri):I'm not attached to. Alright, that's it, and I will pre-roll for next turn.
Timothy (DM):Alright.
Kai (Yonce):I'll also keep pre-roll for next turn.
Timothy (DM):All right, I'll also pre-roll All right, so they are going to try to stab down on you Up breathe.
Russell (Upri):That hits.
Timothy (DM):All right, so you're going to take 50 piercing damage.
Russell (Upri):That is halved, and 21 fire damage, that's not halved.
Timothy (DM):As they stab down, slamming into your body and pinning you to the ground. Pinned, yeah, you're grappled um as long as they keep their sword there okay um, and then we're gonna shoot some more arrows. So that's a 29 to hit and an 18 which will fail. Only the one arrow will hit you, yonce. Um, there are arrows the size of your body, but I don't know. They're just like throwing you across the ground.
Kai (Yonce):At this point I don't know what to do. I've tried everything. I've legit tried everything.
Timothy (DM):That will be 15 piercing plus 27 radiant. It was looking successful, just takes more. What was looking successful One sentence doesn't fix somebody's entire life of trauma.
Kai (Yonce):I'm going to continue to look at Alice and say I know one sentence does not erase one lifetime of trauma.
Timothy (DM):And it is Salvatore's turn.
Chris (Salvador):That's a saving throw. It's a pass.
Timothy (DM):Alright, one success.
Kai (Yonce):I also pre-rolled my attack rolls just in case I had to. Okay, and I'm excited by the results.
Timothy (DM):We're going to go again. Maligna's going to lift the sword, so she's no longer grappled. But Moon, she's gonna try to do it again, does a 27. Yeah, she's just trying to stomp out this mouse. There's a cockroach at her foot, just bit her and she is just like.
Kai (Yonce):But since her foot is almost chopped up, she should roll with disadvantage because she doesn't have stability if you want me to start implying, you're welcome.
Timothy (DM):50 piercing damage plus 21 fire damage. Uprate arrows on uprate a 27 Plus 21 fire damage. Upgrade Arrows on Yonce A 27 to hit.
Kai (Yonce):And a 20 to hit. Wait, a 20 doesn't hit me, a 20 doesn't hit you. And what was the other one?
Timothy (DM):27. That one hits me. Alright, so 15 piercing damage, 25. Let's hear that again 15 piercing damage and 27 radiant. That's pretty bad.
Dan (Wren):Is it my turn?
Timothy (DM):Yeah, it's your turn, Ren.
Dan (Wren):I die.
Timothy (DM):Alright, do you want to know what the ring does? Yes, because I have no choice. Um, you feel a life force pulled inside you. Um, the closest person, that is not your ally, which is just somebody hiding, cowering in the woods. You feel their last fears, their pain, the wounds that they are nursing. They cower in a corner of the forest and their life force is extinguished and you absorb it.
Dan (Wren):Oh, great, great, You're back up to full health. That's what your ring does you consume souls, oh great, full health.
Timothy (DM):Yep, that's what your ring does you consume souls. Oh, great Is it considered a long rest at that and assimilates Um sure, why not? I mean that's up to you. It's kind of a deal. I'll do what I can. Yeah, so. Fuck.
Chris (Salvador):That's a really powerful soul. Is that?
Dan (Wren):my whole turn.
Timothy (DM):I'll let you go.
Dan (Wren):How far away am I? I was like grabbed and thrown to the ground.
Timothy (DM):Down on the ground right at the base of the tower. Oh, okay, they're standing on the ground.
Timothy (DM):Like y'all have kind of basically gone down to like fight them.
Timothy (DM):Or you're shooting from the top of the tower, or like Upray is down on the ground in the battlefields At their feet.
Kai (Yonce):Do I see them? At least get up. No, you have no idea where I am at all, is Hivemind still established, I can reestablish it.
Dan (Wren):Hey guys, I'm back.
Russell (Upri):Have a little nice nap.
Dan (Wren):I think I'm not 100% sure. It hurt a lot and I'm trying to forget about it.
Kai (Yonce):We don't have time for this.
Russell (Upri):Help us defeat. Her weak spots are toes.
Dan (Wren):Help us.
Kai (Yonce):I'm trying to get through to Alice as best as I can.
Dan (Wren):I would like to try and talk to the assimilator really quick and really quick message, just being like hey, can you get me to? How quickly can you get me to that winged bird, that bird in the back, that fucking bird. I'm sick of her. Give me a corruption save A corruption save I failed.
Timothy (DM):That's a good thing, right? That's a good thing. So you're going to take three points of corruption.
Dan (Wren):Great, great great. That's fine, that's fine, that's fine.
Timothy (DM):What's it called? Not a cicado, it's a Cockatiel.
Dan (Wren):What A cockatiel.
Timothy (DM):No.
Dan (Wren):Who are you asking? Yeah, what are you trying to say? The flying snake, oh a A quetzalcoatl.
Timothy (DM):Quetzalcoatl. You just burst into a quetzalcoatl Whoa, oh shit, and you're just like your body is rocketed towards them.
Dan (Wren):Does that get me to them? I just want to get like halfway. If I can get like 100 feet forward towards them, that's perfectly fine.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, that gets you to them.
Dan (Wren):Great, I would then like to. Here we go. I would like to, because you gave me a long rest.
Timothy (DM):I'd like to shape change into maligna whoa all right, you become a 500 foot primordial god, there's two of them.
Dan (Wren):Inform. It's me, it's me, it's me. You get turned into this um.
Timothy (DM):In D&D, the stat block is just a quaddle. Um this quaddle, one flying creature, snake-like flying creature, and then, as you're about to make impact with uh. Solarius, you crash into him in the form of maligna yeah, so that's my action.
Dan (Wren):Um, what bonus actions does? I don't know what the stat block is.
Timothy (DM):I don't have the stat block um, you can just make it a sword attack or anything. Okay, can I do Hellfire again?
Dan (Wren):You can.
Timothy (DM):It's a recharge of 5-6. Okay. But yeah, so that will make a duck save. Yeah, that will be a. That will fail. That is oh, no 27. That will fail because that is 18 plus 9. 6. Oh, no 27.
Dan (Wren):It's 28.
Timothy (DM):No it's 27. 18 plus 9 is 27.
Dan (Wren):So is that half damage? So half damage, okay, great, but they're vulnerable to it because I used it on them once. They're vulnerable to hellfire? Yes, they are, because I used it on them once they're vulnerable to hellfire. Yes, they are. So that is going to be 9, 15, 25. Plus 3, 9, 28. Thank you, thank you 28 plus 10, 38, plus 12, 40. 50. 50,. Thank you that one's cocked Plus 13. 67. 50. Thank you that one's cocked, plus 13. 67.
Kai (Yonce):No 63.
Dan (Wren):63 divided by 2, which is 31 times 2, 62. Sorry, the math is weird, alright. That's a good chunk of it you look tasty, I want a scurril all right, so you are now up in his business yes, um, so he's just gonna have a spiritual weapon, cool.
Timothy (DM):um, so I think you have to make a dixie, I don't know, as a spiritual weapon, cool. So I think you have to make a dex fade, I don't know.
Russell (Upri):It makes an attack. It's a bonus action. It'll just be like a spell melee attack.
Timothy (DM):Alright, cool, cool. A 9 plus nine plus twelve is a 21 to hit, which is not your AC right now. So well, it misses. And then a sword lady, honestly, honestly, she can't, she can't really miss On me, on you, unless she gets a nat 1. But, she also just crit.
Russell (Upri):What a double bit, jesus.
Timothy (DM):Um, so it's going to be 100 bludgeoning damage.
Russell (Upri):Alright 50.
Timothy (DM):And 42 fire damage 42?
Chris (Salvador):21.
Dan (Wren):Oh fuck, you don't have that.
Russell (Upri):What was I at?
Dan (Wren):311.
Russell (Upri):Uh Yonce.
Timothy (DM):Minus 15. Minus 15. Finish saying what you want to say All right, I'm going to.
Kai (Yonce):I just in case I have to attack, I'm going to look at Alice. Listen, I understand that saying this, right, what I'm saying right now, does not change a lifetime of trauma. I fucking know, I've lived through it. I metadata this, I metaphysic. Hi, my name is Kai, the player playing Yonce. I know that one day, one second does not change a lifetime of trauma. I put back on the mask, but we are here for you, we are fighting for you, we are, we love you, we care for you.
Timothy (DM):What makes? It worth it. She's like starting to break. What makes it worth it.
Russell (Upri):Are we hive-minded with her? Why are you?
Timothy (DM):pushing forward.
Kai (Yonce):We're hive-minded with her, so I'm going to.
Timothy (DM):All of this struggle. Why do you persist? How do you persist? How am I supposed to keep going?
Kai (Yonce):I'm going to be.
Russell (Upri):If listen, we're hive minds, so go ahead while looking forward to all the moments in between the struggle with us, with each other, with who we love and I know what you believed in Voluptia.
Dan (Wren):She might not be real, but her teachings and the love that she spread to the mortal people of this plane, those are real.
Timothy (DM):The Salvador, oh, salvador's dream. I'm thinking from beyond the grave, unconscious, but dream it. But you're a dreamer, you're unconscious, you're a lucid dreamer. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you can talk.
Chris (Salvador):I'm blowing in her theatrial mind saying it's the people that make it all worthwhile your experiences, and, honestly, that then more than makes up for it at home.
Timothy (DM):Everyone give me a persuasion check with advantage. Hell yeah, let's do it, can I?
Kai (Yonce):use my pre-rolls for it no.
Chris (Salvador):Those are for attacks.
Kai (Yonce):Damn it. Because one of them wasn a nat 20 so heck, okay, here's take this please take this.
Dan (Wren):Thank you away from me.
Timothy (DM):Yes, not 20, hell yeah all right, here's another one, gorgeous, oh my gosh here's my last one.
Dan (Wren):I've only rolled single digits on this roll I got a 15 I. I rolled a 10.
Kai (Yonce):I rolled a nat 20 plus, and what was the save?
Timothy (DM):again, it's a persuasion.
Russell (Upri):Plus 9.
Kai (Yonce):Oh, so I got a 29.
Dan (Wren):I got an 18. A dirty 20.
Timothy (DM):Dirty 20. 15. All right, with that, her magic sputters out and you see the black hole start to dissipate. As she floats back down onto the tower, this percussive ripple of energy blasts out from her and it ripples across the land and as it hits Maligna and then subsequently Solarius, you see they are crumpled over with the impact of that energy. They do a significant amount of damage that you can see mechanically, but then they are going to be crumpled over the crowns of their heads, lowered to the four of you. They are not going to make an attack this round, but, upray, it's your turn. Wait, no, it's still my turn.
Kai (Yonce):Oh yes, but Upray, it's your turn. Wait, no, it's still my turn.
Timothy (DM):Oh yes, Sorry, that was just you talking, yeah yeah yeah.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, Go.
Timothy (DM):Yonce Now can I use the pre-rolls. Yes, you can use the pre-rolls now, all right.
Kai (Yonce):So one of them was a nat 20, and the Witch's Bolt, because that will be 10d12.
Timothy (DM):Can I do that?
Russell (Upri):Witch's Bolt is they can both be the Witch's Bolt.
Timothy (DM):You don't have to make an attack for Witch's Bolt.
Russell (Upri):You just do the damage.
Kai (Yonce):Oh, so what are these rolls?
Timothy (DM):for then.
Kai (Yonce):I don't know.
Timothy (DM):You don't want to roll them. What did you want to do?
Kai (Yonce):Yeah.
Timothy (DM):Can, what did?
Russell (Upri):you want to do.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, can I do the Eldritch Blast instead? Witch's Will is a concentration spell, eldritch Blast is not. So you technically can because you have the haste action, because you only have to use one of your actions to maintain Witch's Will. So, yes, I think you can actually do this according to the haste. So I have to roll two more dice to do the witch's bolt.
Kai (Yonce):Yes, I think you can actually do this according to the dice, so I have to roll two more dice to do the four.
Timothy (DM):Yes, so how many dice did you roll?
Kai (Yonce):I rolled two because I thought both of them had to be towards the witch's bolt. No, that's not how that works.
Timothy (DM):So the witch's bolt will automatically happen, and then roll your four. Yeah, witch bolt will also. Will automatically happen, and then roll your four.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, so this is a 19 plus 15, so that hits. And this is a 7 plus 15, so that does not hit. So it's only three Eldritch Blast. Okay, so for the witch's bolt do I just roll the five d12s?
Timothy (DM):You roll the five d12s.
Kai (Yonce):Huh, yes, all right, I'm relying on people to help right now because I'm a little confused on everything, so please be kind. 10 plus 2 is 12. Plus 9 is 21. Plus 6 is 27. Plus 3 is 30. So that's 30. And for oh, for the 3 that hit 1 was a nat 20, so that's. I'm sorry it's going to be a lot of dice 4d10 plus 9 times 3, so 4d10 plus 27 19, 20, 22 plus 27 is 49, plus 4 is 53.
Russell (Upri):Hell yeah.
Kai (Yonce):And the witch's ball is going towards, of course, Maligna. And can the Eldritch Blast go? No, because he's far away, so never mind. So they all go. They all go too.
Timothy (DM):So you pulled out your hand and, as all of this arcane blasts from the tips of your fingertips, they rocket towards her with a force that you've never seen before, and they crash into the crown of her head Blasting this hole through it.
Timothy (DM):Oh, and then you see, her arm goes limp and buckles as her body begins to teeter and crash into the ground. The entire earth quakes with the force of her body smashing into the earth, and then the energy of a primordial is released into the earth, and then the energy of a primal living being is released into the universe.
Kai (Yonce):In a good way or a bad way.
Timothy (DM):That's campaign number two or something. Yeah, you just killed Maligna.
Russell (Upri):Yay.
Dan (Wren):One more, one more. I'd like to use a legendary action at the end of Yonce's turn. Yep, what do I roll? I would like to attack with my new fancy flaming sword. I'm assuming Roll a d20 and it's a plus 20. Plus 20? It's a 32 to hit. Yep, that hits him hey, what do I roll? What's the damage?
Timothy (DM):We're just going to do the average.
Dan (Wren):Oh. I can't roll it.
Timothy (DM):Do you want to roll 98 plus 88? No, okay.
Dan (Wren):Double the fire damage, by the way 61 and 72.
Timothy (DM):61, 72.
Kai (Yonce):61 and 72. 130. 133, 134.
Timothy (DM):It's probably correct.
Russell (Upri):We all have calculators. Answer that, gif. They really had us going in the first half.
Dan (Wren):Does he die.
Timothy (DM):No, but he is on death's door.
Dan (Wren):Hi, I'm Humphrey. Just end your turn. Let me do it again.
Timothy (DM):Salador has a death save Well you go for before I do.
Russell (Upri):Sal's the last. Yeah, I'm the last, so it's my turn, right? Yeah, I'm the last in the edge, so it's my turn. How far away am I from Salarius? Because I was at Malignant Feetsies. Oh, I can't get to him.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, so you just start sprinting off towards Salarius.
Russell (Upri):There go my pre-rolls. One was a crit.
Dan (Wren):Wait, no, I have a legendary action.
Timothy (DM):Do another legendary action.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, so that's a 26 to hit, yeah.
Timothy (DM):So how do you finish, solarius?
Dan (Wren):Oh, I just run her through.
Timothy (DM):So you run the sword through him.
Dan (Wren):Oh yeah, sorry. The first swipe was like a cut across, like a backhanded cut across the chest, and then I bring the blade around and just put it through his stomach and let him die on it. And then I also want to, if I can, in that moment before the permanent death, I would like to melt form, just so I have that one in my back pocket.
Russell (Upri):You become the new it's hilarious.
Timothy (DM):And with a lot more questions than we started. You have killed two primordials.
Kai (Yonce):Good job.
Timothy (DM):And combat is over.
Kai (Yonce):Someone go help Sal now what about?
Timothy (DM):Slinky, slingsling, revive Salvador. He's brought back to see the corpses of two primordial beings fading to dust as their energy is released back into the universe to be formed anew.
Chris (Salvador):You guys are really strong.
Dan (Wren):It doesn't feel good. I'm back on the tower and I'm like thrown up again. Uppery starts crying.
Russell (Upri):Still scared. There's snot coming out everywhere.
Chris (Salvador):I want to cast Drifting Dreams.
Dan (Wren):Just to give us a rest, yeah, well yeah, so y'all get a rest.
Chris (Salvador):Oh, all right.
Timothy (DM):So I fully intended to spend a little bit more time doing, uh, our epilogue, but also needed, uh, to make sure that you all got to say some things to alice. Um, so we are going to go around and talk a little bit about where we go from here. What happens as a result of killing two primordials, um, stomping the end of the world? Um, as, like, the primordial's energy is released. That means that Arcanist is reformed in her original form. She receives, like, all that energy that was stolen, consumed from her, is returned to her and therefore she is able to cauterize the wound. She clears up the tear between the material plane and the void, working with Razoroth her brother they reform that barrier, what about the slinking?
Timothy (DM):And they reset. You see, at some point the perverter is drawn back into the void.
Russell (Upri):No.
Timothy (DM):And after this, you don't know what happens to the titans. Your connection to the primorials stops oh and you live the rest of your lives never as normal humans or persons.
Kai (Yonce):Do we get to keep our demigod?
Russell (Upri):No, I think it's gone.
Dan (Wren):She'll take it back.
Timothy (DM):It is somewhat up to you if you would like to return the souls of the people you consume.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, probably 98% of the world is still an A+.
Russell (Upri):Can you hold?
Dan (Wren):on to it for a little bit.
Russell (Upri):I think you're forgetting who our DM is. They're going to make us roll a percent, die and kill our families.
Timothy (DM):So let's give it back. I will absolutely give it back, yeah.
Kai (Yonce):We're going to give them back. I'm going to give it back.
Timothy (DM):And you see my outfit turn. I will absolutely make it a random one.
Russell (Upri):I mean it's a low. It'd be a 2% chance.
Chris (Salvador):But like it could happen.
Kai (Yonce):I'm going to give it up and say thank you, Arcanist.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, pay it forward. Can I start a cult?
Chris (Salvador):We'll be the founding.
Timothy (DM):We're going to go around and we're gonna tell the audience. I believe everything that you're about to say. I'm gonna practice, yes and yes, anding um everything that is about to come out of your mouth is 100, true, um, I don't know if I am going to regret this or not, but let's go around and tell the audience where your characters go on to. I'm also going to switch the music for them.
Dan (Wren):Fair enough. I have a couple of questions, Obviously honestly, Do our me and Sal still connected to the Titans?
Timothy (DM):No, no no, okay, your connection is damn severed there go those two forms.
Dan (Wren):I know it's a shame I was gonna go eat the director wanna join my cult you are all still very fucking powerful. Yeah, I can't fight a Titan without another titan, though unfortunately, I guess I go back to Lark's Perch then. Yeah, I don't know. My insides are probably destroyed, though.
Timothy (DM):What do?
Dan (Wren):I do with Wesley.
Timothy (DM):Yeah, what happens with your relationship with wesley?
Dan (Wren):um, I don't know. Good friends, all right, I mean, I still don't have carnal urges. I never got those back, like they have been stripped from me in memoriam, so I don't know. Going back to regular life seems weird and also like the. My understanding of the corruption that I gained was like an actual physical, like ichor, that like existed inside of me, like. So I imagine that, like I am probably not the like, as physically fit as I used to be, so I don't know. I just try to make it through day to day. I don't know.
Russell (Upri):That's like a hard one to answer.
Dan (Wren):I have a business to run, I guess.
Timothy (DM):Do you try to retire? Yeah, To Lark's Perch Salvador Does magic still work to run I guess, do you try to retire?
Chris (Salvador):Yeah, Salvador Does magic still work, Magic still works yeah, I would probably try to give up the life as working for Almira as sort of like a domestic and try to enroll in whatever the remaining government would be to help rebuild some of the war-torn, void-torn cities like Harrow and Cyag. I would still visit Dervos pretty frequently and drop by Andropolis and, theoretically, wherever you two would end up if you go back to the Enchanted or or wherever maybe join a cult what do you do with the knowledge that your magic does not come from a god, but is something innate?
Chris (Salvador):I I'm pulling on even that experience from the lighthouse or the the tower with the dolls and the floating rock. I I would probably as sort of like a outreach, not like a missionary, because that has its own associated things. But I would probably try to disseminate that information, either through the universities if there are any remaining universities through the underkeep keep. But I think it's important for people to know that not everything it's interesting because it is important to know that you have power, even though people are telling you that you're not allowed to use it like the side or the, the order or oh yeah, the bulk of the order's army is wiped out in the catastrophe that took place.
Chris (Salvador):I will try to help prevent a religion from taking that vacuum I would try to bring back, because there used to be wild magic people a century ago, before organized religion took up its main spot.
Timothy (DM):Lovely Uppery.
Russell (Upri):Speaking of the power vacuum left about religion. Uppery. Well, I'm kind of split, so I might roll 50-50 and see what happens. I think if it's 50 or, I'm going to roll D100. If it's 50 or lower, I'm going to start the Upper Atlantic Temple. If it's 51 or higher, I to roll D100. If it's 50 or lower, I'm going to start the Upper Atlantic Temple. If it's 51 or higher, I'm just going to settle down on a farm and have some kids.
Timothy (DM):The chasm Between those two Could not be more Profile.
Russell (Upri):It's 58 so. I don't start the Upper Atlantic Temple. I'm going to go find A few hunky men. I think maybe three husbands. And pop out. We're going to pop out 1D12 kids.
Timothy (DM):For some reason we get 10.
Dan (Wren):You are 10 kids, 10 little uppers running around blowing shit up Wild magic Do they does the plant bits of you carry over to your children?
Chris (Salvador):Ooh, interesting.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, do I start a new like a dryad. A new lineage in Fabi.
Timothy (DM):You're trying to live a very quiet life in the countryside? Why?
Kai (Yonce):not both.
Timothy (DM):Pilgrims flock to you over the years and you might not start a cult, but you definitely have a little spattering of followers. And, yeah, your children are a little bit hybrid oh, and just like an alternate reality.
Russell (Upri):If I had rolled below 50, I would have started the upper Atlantic cult, uh, which would have spread the word of communism and killed everyone that uh, whose net worth came above a billion dollars yep, yep, that's an anti-capitalist shadow organization kind of wish that that happened, but that's okay, wow all right.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, I actually thought about this um ready. No, I mean, like I thought about it instead of doing quips.
Kai (Yonce):I thought about this throughout the entire campaign so, after we kind of get back from the void it's very similar to what I told you when I thought I was actually dying I end up going back to the enchanted forest and starting my own group of the strays called the mares, which consists of alice as one of my like one of my people that help help like other abandoned um kids, and me and alice weekly talk about the trauma that is left behind from this entire journey to keep my word about helping her through the depression and the side effects. Whether or not it works only time will tell, but since all four of us have created an impeccable bond, every week we use portals.
Dan (Wren):Yes and yeah well, you can still portal right y'all are like almost level 20 yeah, I think I would be nearby.
Kai (Yonce):Yeah, my father would be nearby um, like this is like so, and we meet up and have dinner at least weekly as a family and we're joined by the strays and the mares and yeah, y'all, it's a gunkle to my 10 little crotch problem.
Chris (Salvador):Oh, and here's a lot of work.
Kai (Yonce):Here's where things are gonna get funny and weird, I end up settling with zero oh my god, yes, I'm gonna beat myself after the battle. We kind of circuit gay yeah, reformed well zero goes reformed circuit gay zero goes to check in on alice a lot and because of that we kind of forge a relationship and they end up joining the mayors and we somehow I give y'all my inspiration token I wish I had more.
Kai (Yonce):I'm only going to roll a D8. And we have together four kids One called Meredith and then one after. Who's the lady in Harrow that I still think is alive? No, not Tenebe Akilah.
Dan (Wren):No, the woman from the backstage, oh, the one that we left in the closet.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, someone with a P.
Kai (Yonce):A noob.
Russell (Upri):A noob. Wait, we're yes-anning this.
Kai (Yonce):So she ends up making her way to the Enchanted Forest. She is alive after all this time.
Dan (Wren):She's alive, stayed in the closet the whole time until everything passed, the whole time.
Russell (Upri):She sensed the passing of malignant and hilarious and thought oh, it's time for me to leave the closet, exactly but we have four children, one of them she's been surviving mushrooms exactly.
Dan (Wren):It's been growing in the closet, yes, meredith pan pan two and then two other names I can't think of right away.
Kai (Yonce):But it is a happy ending. But we still every day deal with the effects of the trauma.
Russell (Upri):But we get through it because we throw sorelli in there too, like she'd become the tie.
Dan (Wren):Her titan powers disappear oh right, so she wouldn't be corrupted anymore but blades is still dead is oh my gosh, that's what a project, what a project, what a project I mean deserves to be deserves to have a nice comfy spot.
Russell (Upri):Yeah, we do everything we can to help her heal and make her comfortable.
Kai (Yonce):She likes to be by herself, but she does come and visit every so often.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, for the memory of blades can I make it a little sad for? You because I think it like based on ren's like acceptance of corruption. I think his health would deteriorate really quickly. I think my understanding of his powers came from his first episode, where he dies and comes back and his connection to the assimilator is because he was infected by the blob thing that was at the bottom of the well and I think without that he actually is just dead walking.
Russell (Upri):So days, weeks, months, years.
Dan (Wren):Maybe just a few years yeah.
Russell (Upri):We'd make him good.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, good years. But it just makes sense. What was holding him together was, in fact, corruption.
Russell (Upri):It's the glue.
Dan (Wren):Yeah, the glue Truly the black, the black, icky goopy glue the eye core that holds us all together yeah exactly, yeah, fine, I named one of my, one of my four kids friend yeah I'm not tristan.
Russell (Upri):Oh, I go by, tristan, yeah I'm gonna name one of my daughters renifer. Yeah, that, renifer yeah.
Timothy (DM):That tracks, and because Alice was my first character in this campaign because I got to play a character, if y'all remember I just want to put a little bit in about her. So Alice traveled the world for the greater part of her early life as a lore bard, collecting stories, before she got caught up with the silence and then her life took a pretty bad nosedive.
Timothy (DM):she was brought in as a prophet to a cult, kidnapped, brainwashed, tortured, all sorts of things, memory stolen, right, uh, injected with the entire, uh, knowledge of the universe all right um, and throughout all this, in her battles, she struggled to see the beauty in life and those around her, to make genuine connections before she flitted off to her next destination to collect her next story. And living with Cyril was the first time she actually had a friend time. She actually had a friend, and being brought in by Yonce to help form the mares was the first time that she had community. That's all I wanted to say.
Dan (Wren):It's very sweet.
Timothy (DM):Very sweet and with that we are gonna say goodbye. I don't even have an outro planned for this. I, um, I have thoroughly enjoyed this so much. This has been like five years of my life, from the inception of this project and then being able to play with so many people. I think we had like over 20 actual players um throughout this um and then really getting to know the four of you um in the last two years um through this experience.
Timothy (DM):It has been a pleasure and I yeah I don't have too much more else to say. Say but audience, thank you so much for joining us. Thank you so much for being with us throughout this story. It's meant a lot to me, and I hope it's also meant a lot to the other players, and that it's given you some, if not a nice, warm, fuzzy feelings. Sometimes it's the least been entertaining. So with that, yeah, we're saying goodbye for our last time. So I don't even worry, I don't know.
Dan (Wren):What do you normally say at the end?
Timothy (DM):Normally I say some things that are on a piece of paper that I actually don't even remember we can take it from here.
Russell (Upri):I think we yeah, we love you and be gay, do crime.
Dan (Wren):Be gay, do a lot of crime and remember kids.
Russell (Upri):If you think the government wouldn't, yes, they would.
Kai (Yonce):But also, I think one of the biggest pieces of this game was building community. So if you learn something from this. Build a community. I mean, you could do crime.
Russell (Upri):Just speak. Community and crime.
Dan (Wren):Do together, do together, be gay, do crime with your chosen family and thank you to our DM for putting together a great story and organizing our disorganized asses, adhd bullshit that we bring to the table to get us here, sometimes every week. For however many years it's been now.
Russell (Upri):Yes, it's been four years.
Kai (Yonce):I think, at least playing. I think we can all. Well, everyone. Have a good rest of your day and for the oh okay.
Dan (Wren):Until we meet again, Well, everyone have a good rest of your day Until we meet again.
Timothy (DM):Even though this is the final episode of Shadows of Prophecy, this is not the end of our journeys. May the mystery of this world continue to intrigue your mind and awaken your sense of wonder, stay curious, stay daring and always embrace the darkness.
Dan (Wren):Keep an eye out for new projects coming soon.
Russell (Upri):Yes, Kitsch's Shop of Curiousities will return for one chance. Thank you you.
