So as we left off Bell's Hells, after trekking deep into the depths of the Red moonaville Omen Ruidus, you found yourself at the very core. And after sending Ludinus form scattering into some sort of an oily bubbling substance, you stepped into the central chamber where Imogen of the 2ruidusborn accepted it within. As you watched it swell and grow to a monstrous size and began to step towards its exit, Just a few temporary hit points. It's fine. You all rallied around this terrifying entity, trying to beseech your friend, who seemed beyond your reach as Imogen, somewhere within the consciousness of Predathos, sought to engage with the shreds that remained of the two gods had once swallowed in forgotten history. Teehee. As you battled it, trying to peel back its hardened carapace and the blue green crystals that armor its torso and body, you began to see opportunities to reach for your friend, where you managed to free one of the two lost entities by eating it. More or less. In a moment of crisis and panic, Laudna placed the bequeathed legendary mask of the matron upon her face, discovered it was a fake crafted by one of your own companions, Breus. Through some rapid finagling, your terrifying form of dread, you placed your face into it and as such, briefly transported the consciousness of you and the rest of your troop into the Matron's realm to have a discussion with her there. In that stretch moment of time, you came up with a very curious possibility on how to deal with the current Predathos God situation on Exandria. After expressing this possibility in a bit of banter, your moment came to a close and you had to choose one of or two of a number of boons that the Matriot could provide. As you stepped back out of her realm and into your conscious selves here. Back on the moon, you chose the recovery of some of the arcane knowledge that your group had expended as well as a brief swell of lively experience and temporarily gained two levels, finishing destroying this entity as it crumbled its form, shattering across the room as innumerable shards of broken Ruidian glass. You had a moment to breathe in silence and process what had happened before the room itself began to shake. As erupting from across the chamber, a massive Kaiju head of Predathos, currently furious, began to burst through the ground where two of its massive claws reached out to claim vengeance and possibly reclaim its vessel, to ride out and beyond, to feast upon the quaking gods beyond the Divine Gate. So let's go and have all your initiative again. What do you mean? We want to talk to it. We want to have a conversation. He's going to grab you and jump back to you. You can have a conversation. It'll just be on your turn. Can I ask a question? Yeah. Yeah. In that time between level one, Predathos getting smoked and now, was there any kind of breathing room or is it. There was a few moments. Could I. I know it's. Since we're rerolling Initiative, could I have cast a shorty spell in that amount of time? Like a minute? A minute? I'll allow a minute. Okay. What are you casting? All right, so, yeah, after that spell, I think Dorian was emboldened and confident for the first time. And I'm just going to kind of give myself a little touch between the forehead and I'm going to cast. It's not a short spell. It's a big. I'm going to cast Ninth level foresight. Whoa. Ninth level? Oh, yeah. Matri gave it to us. It's great. You get. Who are you casting it on? Myself. Yourself? Okay, I'm sorry. So with this, you're used to doling out inspiration and taking it where you can. But as the threads of fate themselves still echo in your mind from that brief return to the matron's realm and coming back into this space, a bit of lost arcana focuses in your mind. As you hold onto that distinct, unique thread, you grasp the markings of this ephemeral spell. And as you release it upon yourself, suddenly, at all points, you can see just a few moments into the future. It's like these two different possibilities are overlapping and you have a brief stuttering moment of the moment ahead that's always right beyond your vision as the Spell foresight takes effect. So now you have for the next. How long? Eight hours. Eight hours. I believe it's initiative on all attacks, ability checks and saving throws. Period. Advantage on attacks, ability checks and saving throws. A little bit of dunamantics. Yeah. And then other creatures have disadvantage on attack rolls against me. Poop spelled backwards is poop. I see it. I see it. It's. Wow. Whoa. Upside down boob. What are we saying? Are the hands backwards or is he doing this? It's ah. I see their current location. They don't seem like it's they're coming from any particular form. They're just kind of emerging from the ground in places. What? We're not going to see a dick right around here? Come on. Come on. What Giant? This one crystal. That would probably break TOS, but nevertheless. 25 to 20. You should do that. Yep. Nope. Advantage on initiative. Yeah. So 23. 23. All right, we have Dorian up top. Dorian's up first. Nobody else above 20. I have a 19. Listen, I have a 19 as well. I have a 21. I forgot to add my initiative. I got above a 20. You okay, so Dorian. All right. Rollies, Rollies, rollies. Let's go. All right. Girlfriend's rollies. I'm also in rollies for 19. 19 as well. Yeah. Three way rollies, let's go. 18, 12. 13. Okay. All right. So that was a three way roll. Terribly Ashley. Oh, that would have been great. Third wheel. Third wheel out of your ash. You've got the soda, she's got the popcorn. I gotta be in the middle. I love it. And warm headed. 18. Yeah, 18. Oh, so Imogen. All right. No, so you're at the end of that Dorian Chen skin. Imogen. Right. Okay. That's a lie. That's a triple. That's high. Yeah, I got a 12. What you roll. Oh, I got 13. Sorry. Wait. Okay, so. And Brus the Betrayer. It's his full name. Okay. All righty, friends. As these massive claws go streaking through the air, their fingers reaching their massive scythe like claws cracking in the air as it expands and the gargantuan crested head of Ferdathos roars, its mouth lights up bright with a glowing blue light. And you see a flicker of black energy within too. That seems to. Black energy where? Within the core of its throat. What? In his throat? Okay. All right, Dorian, you're up first to Chet on deck. Let's go. Okay. Where is everybody? You have Laudna over here, Chetney over here, Reyes there. Ash and Fearne are Clustered up front with Orym. And then we have EUR up there and Imogen is over to the right side. God. Okay. Could I. I'm gonna fly and get right in the middle of this triangle in between. Ash. Can I get there with 40ft? Like to the ground? Yeah. How tough do you need A particular radius you're looking at? Yeah, Like I'm trying to catch everybody. 30ft. Could I. Okay. Yeah. So you could lower yourself and do that. Yeah, that's totally doable. Kind of at an angle about there. You can get 30 foot right there. Yeah. Cool. And that would catch you. It'll catch everybody but Chetney and Imogen. Perfect. Okay. Yeah. I'm going to go ahead and be. I'm going to cast. I think I can only do it at fifth level. I'm going to do mass cure wounds for this. Just. We're starting off. Go for it. So it's five D8 plus or three D8. Well, it's not. Yeah, it's only three. Sorry, go ahead. Does your foresight allow you to see D's? What'd you say? Oh, nice try. Nice try. Like a fence. I'm gonna cast knife ligma pretty soon. Oh. Oh. Do you see this? Nice. Plus 7. 7, 8. 14. 22. Plus 3. 25 healing. 25 points healing everyone except for Chetney and image. Oh, amazing. Yeah. They don't matter. Oh, my God. Yay, Blue boy. I'm out of Bardic. So that ends my turn. Yeah. Out of your turnzo. Alrighty. That's huge. Finishing that. Go. Chetney. You're up. Jesus. Yeah, yeah. Let me go. This will be. Good question. I had my brand of castigation on the former Gundam Predathos. Imogen. Yeah. Does that transfer to this? It transfers to this one. It does. Just to the head. Yeah. The Arcana is still bound to it. Even though the form shattered, you could sense where it goes. And Imogen was. When I picked up on it, you felt even though it shattered, it was still ever present. Almost like it's just all around you for a minute. And once the head emerges, it focuses once more. So the brand would be on this. Amazing. It's so fucking high up there. You know what? It's just a head. I'm going to get close. Can I go 40ft towards it? Sure. It's going to be an athletics check to climb up the side here. If you want to go ahead and lean, I'm going to come alongside athletics. Correct. Which I have advantage on because I'm a. You do Indeed. It's a natural. 20 for a 30. You leap up into the air and clear the majority of it landing right on the cusp of this edge right there. Amazing. That's just out of melee, right? Like five or ten out of the way, or would you. Do you not want to be in melee? I do. I would like to. Yeah. That is within melee. Excellent. Don't you fall. I can see it slowly going. It's slowly doing it. Can I take two swings? Actually, I'll take. Yeah, I'll take three swings with my claws. Yes, you may. Crimson. Right, let's. First one is a seven. That is a. That's a 19 to hit. 19 does not hit. Okay, good. We're figuring this out. We're figuring this out. Let's roll a little bit higher. That's much better. 17. It's a 27 to hit. 27 does hit. Okay, 27. And the last one. Dirty 20. Yeah. Dirty 20 does not hit. 3020 does not hit on the dome. So somewhere between one hit. Cool, cool, cool. Wiener schnitzel. He's backing. Is not safe. Chrissy, where are you? Would you see the previous Crimson Right damage still applied? That was a six. Okay, so 13 plus six. 19 points of slashing damage. Nice. And the Crimson right is lightning. Right. So you strike through it as you do your clog hits. Looks like a density of this crystal matter. And it's rough around its neck, and so you tear through it and it damages it. But none of it quite gets through to the meat of the Predatho's head. Looks like this crystal is almost like an armor that holds a specific or absorbs a bit of the damage. Oh, also, in striking the crystal as it shatters around you, this reverberating hum that always apparates around Predathos in his chamber. You hit it. As the crystal shatter, there's a psychic feedback that blasts off its head, and you take three points of psychic damage. Oh, that's good to know. Also, just from hitting the crystals or from hitting the head? It's just all around the head. From it striking towards the head, the crystals seem to absorb the blow that he dealt. And when you impacted the crystals, you took psychic damage. Only because I don't want to fuck it up. Because of the temporary level up, I got branded the voracious, which means I get advantage on saving throws from my bloodlust creature. But I also get on a branded creature advantage against the branded creature. While I'm in my hybrid form. Can I roll one More time. Yeah, I'll allow that. Okay, one more for the top one. That's crap. Is it 20s? That's a natural 20. So the third hit would be a crit. So I'll allow that. So you strike with the sight. The first one still misses. The second one, it hits and glides through a bunch of the crystals and reverberates off. You get furious and angry, tapping into your wolven form, and then strike for a crit on the last one. So take those 19 hit points back. That was what I did the first time. So 7, 14. The 19 still matters, since that still hit having you roll both of those. Although the second one wouldn't crit, right? Yeah. Because the third one missed anyway. Okay, so taking those back. Supreme Wand, 28 points this time. All righty. And that'll be it, I believe. Yes. Do all the attacks have advantage? Oh, they do. So the third one, I get one more. You get one more to go. It's a natural one. So misses Video ahead. Miss Crit, Miss. Great. Awesome. All right. Finishing your go. It's that. All right, so it is now. Initiative count. 20. There's that damn thing again. So that's still after you smash into the head. The head. The ground seems to tear open and it vanishes beneath. Oh, no. I have a funny feeling we didn't. This stone explodes in a shower of dust as the head appears. I don't like it. Right there. It's moving independently. Do I get a reaction attack? Unfortunately, no. Because as it burrows through the ground, by the time it leaves your melee, it's underground, so you can striking the dirt. Shit myself when it moved in front of me. Also true. It appears right before you brace. Oh, my God. He's gonna be able to swallow us. No, don't even say that. He probably wasn't thinking of it until you said it. Yeah, right. My God will protect me. Okay, that's a good idea. Imogen, it's your turn. Oh, okay. Oh, fuck. Save us. This is it. I'm gonna. How do you do this? All right. Thanks, Matron. I'm gonna cast Blade of Disaster. So this rift of the Red Energy, where my Reilorans were coming through before, it opens up. But this time, it's sharp and it has its own form. It can move. The rift just starts spinning around. And I'm gonna do it right above the head. All right. Above the head. Right on the head. All right. It's a sharp hole. Lands up there as the blade itself appears. It has elements of the faintest Ruidian glass a marbling through it. And your purple ish bolts arc up and down it as it spins slowly in the air. So you get to make two attacks with it. Your spell attack, that will be a 23. 23 hits. Okay, so that's 4012, I think. Force damage. Okay. Ooh. Okay. 21. 28. 27. 20. Okay, wait, sorry. 21. 28. 34 points. Whoa. Of force damage. Super good roll. That was a very pretty high roll there. Sorry, was that 38? 34. 34. And then I do it again. Awesome. Okay, so first off, the strike hits and the crystals across the head, it carves through and they shatter from around the sides of it. And it cuts into the actual flesh of it. It looks like it's broken open the glass shield that it seems to keep around its neck. Amazing. And so the damage actually cuts into part of it. Now I have a question. Yeah. With my transmutable. With my transmutable spell attacks, I can change. I think it's only with elemental. Just ignore me. I'm just going to keep going. So I rolled a 10 plus 14. 24. That hits. 24 hits. This. This one is not as good. 13, 15. 20 points of force damage on the second hit. 20 points of force damage. Great. Two carvings. This one just goes through and starts slicing into it. The force damage, the blade just cutting off sections of its outer hide and its heavy, heavy armored outer shell. Okay, so that's your bonus action. Bonus action for my action. I am going now. I have a question. What's your question, Laura? Do the hands make individual saves? Like if I attack the hand with a spell that's got an intelligence saving throw. Can I do that? You can. While it is a singular entity and it's based on the similar, they all share some of the stats at least. So they would take individual saves and be affected individually. Okay. Okay. I'm gonna mind you, if it's a spell that affects a mind, it won't affect the hands, likely. So the hands can't take psychic damage. They can. Although the whole form is still psychically resonant. I'll say at its size as well. But you couldn't try and charm a hand, right, girl? Those nails are busted. Okay. These are gels. But I'll say that because of the glass, which is particularly cyclically resonant by its build, I can focus on that. You could probably focus on that to try and harm the space there. Yeah, I'd allow that. Colors on these acrylics. Acrylics should See this bitch try and type. Oh, God. What do I do? I want to do this. I want to try it just to see how it does. I'm going to try to mind sliver the hand. The hand in the middle. Sure. All right. It's an intelligence saving throw. It is. Beat the thumb. Natural one. Oh, sweet. And so that bitch takes 4d6 psychic damage from me. All right. The hand does. The hand takes psychic damage from me. Amazing. That's caught. Okay, 5, 7. 7 plus 5 is 12. 12 points of psychic damage. 12 points of psychic damage. But then. And subtract 1d4 from the next saving throw that. That hand takes. That that hand takes for my next turn. Awesome. Did it look like from my perspective that the psychic damage was effective or did it. From what you can tell, the hand kind of like tenses for a moment and the hands relax and flex for a moment from the impact. So it can take psychic damage same side. Okay, okay. Good to know, good to know. Oh, God. You want to move or you want to stay put? Well, I'm afraid it's going to turn this. The head's going to turn into a. I'm going to just scoot over right here. Okay. So you go ahead and glide over to this spot. All right. End of your turn. It's going to spend two legendary actions. There we go. To use one of its special attacks. Not yet. It's going to use Shriek of Oblivion. So that glowing mass of black energy that's billowing in the throat as the crystals that do remain around its head also take on that darkened coloration like it had done in the previous phase of this battle. All the crystals just go jet black. Its eyes go jet black. And that small little black void in its throat gets larger and larger. All of you in the center of the room feel the temperature begin to drop and it all sound disappear for a bit brief second. Just quiet. This absolute shrieking beam of black energy just arcs out with this high pitched tearing noise and just carves through everybody right there in the middle. That sounds usually associated with death and stuff. I would like a spell and an ability. This is a layer of. It's an ability to fight it through. I would like Breus Fearne. And technically it's not going to get Mr. And then also Ashton. I'm Orym Small and I'm still there in case you can't see me. Orym. Yeah, it's a line. So it will not get you or Mr. But it will get Ashton. It will get Fearne. It will get Braves I need you all to make a dexterity saving throw for me, please. All right, you have my sympathies because I'm a Blood Hunter. Is this a spell? Is this a. You get a D4. Anybody who's within 1050 D means still gets a D4 because I haven't dropped drop that yet. Spell. Is this a spell or other magical effect? Right? I would consider it a magical effect. You would? Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so wait, it's a spell, it's a magical. All right, so burn. 23. 23. You just managed to dive out of the. And it whips by with no impact. Nice. That evasion. Ashton, no, that was just a save. 19. Just a good save. Ashton, you try and move and unfortunately it catches you in the shoulder and almost pulls you in and you feel yourself just kind of tossed and curled in this space. You take 62 points of necrotic damage. Yeah, it's just a giant disintegrate brayus. What'd you get? 18. You also take 62 points of necrotic damage. Oh my God. As both of you get caught up in this beam, it slowly withers into a small beam and then vanishes. And it closes its jaw as black soot like energy billows out the side like steam vents. And the two of you just feel like you were spiritually ravaged by some terrifying essence of a long dead God. Oh, boy. All right, smaller class here in a second with that. Ashton, you're up with Laudna on deck. Oh my God. Spread out. Don't be in a line. But it can teleport. Yeah, but just make triangles. Triangulation. Make complex shapes. Circles. Okay, okay, okay. Serpentine. I don't know. I don't know if I'm within. I assume that I'm within striking range of that hand. Well, you still have to get into melee with it. Okay, but I'm not. I mean, it can't. If I try and get around it, it can take its way. You are within its melee range, but it is not within yours. I'm going to move over to get some advantage on this. Just shift there to get in kind of opposite melee with Fern. Yeah, just so I can move around a little bit more. I want to make sure I save and I'm going to take. I'm taking my first attack. Let's go. Ow. Ow. Kill it. Yep, working on it. 17, 20 to 32 to hit something stupid. This is your life. And that's. I can reroll that one. I don't like that. Ugh. Even worse. That's 21 points of damage. 21 points of damage. Nice to that hand for me. That's fine. A heavy crack into its side as the fingers pull back for a second, they grasp in the air near you, but you continue your attack. After that first right handed swing. I'm going to try and just come back with a left handed swing and. Oh, that's awful. But it still will probably hit. That's 21 to hit. 21 hits. Yeah. Oh, okay. The hand. The hand. Yeah, the hand. 21 hits a hand. Oh my God, stop it. That's better. That's 24 points of damage. Nice, nice from that backhand. And then I'm going to. I know we were in a line, but it's worth it. I'm going to roll around so that I've got Fearne and Orym within 10ft of me so they can maintain the Z4. 25ft to get over there. And so 30, 35, 40 next to Orym. 30, 35, 40 will get you about there. Yep. Which means Orym can get in the radius, but Fernal will just be out of it. Oh, is Fum's more than 10ft away? Correct. Oh, Fum. Okay, that's fair. Orym, because of your passive perception, you notice that as Ashton is hammering into the side of this hand with each impact, the head seems to recoil slightly with each of the impacts. So there is a connection among you. Pick up on between what? There is a connection between damaging the hand damages the eye. The face looks ouchy. Yeah, a little bit. A little. Got it. He's on the ropes. At the end of your turn, Ashton bloody. He's going to use its last legendary action. It's going to go ahead and activate the hand there in the center. One of the limbs of a predathos. The evolving. The evolving is going to go ahead and thank you button. It's going to take a meteoric slam attack. So it's going to make an attack against all creatures within five feet of the arm, which is Fearne, Ashton and Aurum. So it makes an attack of all creatures within five feet. The hand curls into a massive fist, raises up and then pulls its fist straight down into the ground like a hammer and blasts this radius right around it. So everyone is immediately next to it. It's going to hit. So against Fearne, that is 28. That hits. That hits Oryn, natural one. And against Ashton, that's going to be a 31. Oh my Lord. Just above her, that just hits. So Ashton and Fearne both take 26 points of legendary damage halved for me. Right, and does it take damage for striking you with melee fern? Oh, because you're flame form. Yes. But you take a D8 of fire damage. Fire damage. It also blasts you all five feet back. Oh, oh. It doesn't blast me five feet back. Oh. All right. Three points of fire damage. Oh. Also, hold on. I can do a thing that quickly. Five more points of damage. Where is it? When I was. This is Amelia Attack. So I'm gonna do 1d8 fire damage. Just because. Go for it. I'll not. YOLO. That's four points of fire damage. Okay. And technically they should be pushed 10ft away from me, but I don't know how that would work. This actually cannot be pushed or have its speed move. Very fair. All righty. With that finishing, Ashton's go. Laudna, you're up with Orym on deck. Okay, Win the game. Win the game. This is it. This is the move. I take out my ball bearings. No, I'm just kidding. Yes. Let's go. I'm still here for it. I mean, pinball table, my secret weakness. I'm going to reach out to this hand that's right in front of me and I'm gonna go. Honestly, it's a pleasure to meet you. We've heard so much about you. And I'm going to shake its hand and do hunger of the Shadow Shard. Okay. I'm gonna just. Five words, you know, it's good. It's a good one. Yeah. I'm just gonna zap a little bit of a zest out of its body. Let's go and see what happens because I'm kind of curious. All right, go ahead and roll for an attempt. Okay, 24. 24 hits. Fantastic. It's 48 plus 5. I should have prepped these D8s. That's right. They're not anodized ball bearings, but they'll do 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 15. So 20 points of necrotic damage. 20 points of necrotic damage and I get back a warlock spell slot. Yes, you do. Nice. That's your action. That's my action. And just, like, just because of the nature of this. Why did you just reload? I did not ask you to do this. Stop. Every time I move, I didn't touch it. It reloads. Since the nature of that spell is to, like, suck the. The essence, like, the magical essence out of it, do I, like, get anything? Do I sense anything from. Make an insight check for me. Oh, okay. Insight check. Don't look at it. Don't look at it. It didn't count. I didn't know what it was. Does it have a peanut butter? That's not enough. We'll find out. See why she rolls. I painted it 1111. I mean, you don't glean any new information. You do sense that it is drawing a power source from within itself that it's already done in the previous phase before, where its crystals darken. So that's there. That's all you can really ascertain, though. Okay. That's okay. It was worth a try. All right. Do you want to stay put the other. Well, no. Is this whole place in dim light? I'd say it's fairly dim light, although the crystals glow and the place can change and shift based on the lighting, but it's generally dim light. I would like to use my brand new shadow walk ability that I just got where I can teleport 120ft into a place of dim light and or shadow. So that's part of your movement or is it a bonus action? That's a bonus action, yeah. I mean, there are all manner of sections where there are shadow in the crevices, not in the central battlefield, but any place where there isn't a crystal cluster you can teleport to or where you're not in a line. Yeah, correct. Underneath me, baby. Can I know real dark in this? I'm all up in that. Can I be like D12 inspiration a little crazy and maybe get like up here? That's crazy. I got a shadow. If you want to. There is. Well, from what you can see up here, there would be some shadow, probably. Okay, I'll do that. Okay. And then I'm kind of in position. You step. You probably move around to here to find a bit of shadow on this side and then apparate over onto this part. That was cool. Thank you, Matron. And with that, he's done the story of life back. All right, that finishes Lloyd's go. Orym, you're up. All right. Although that rock and stone just blasted past me. But I'm so small that it all missed me. I start to sprint around this way. I'm going to leap up onto Brayish's shoulder and kick off and try to spring onto the God Eater's head. All right, so go ahead and roll an acrobatics check for me. That is a 20. Dirty 20. You leap up onto the top of its crested head. You do leave the attack range of the claw. So it does give an attack of Opportunity on you. Absolutely. That is going to be a 30. Yeah. That hits a little bit. All right. So it's ruinous Claw strikes two towards you. That's what we do. Silvery bars. This is as he's passing me. Yeah. Yep. I'm going to use my reaction. Jumped off your shoulder to activate Truth Bearer Fable Plate of Uthor Venlock. Yes. And impose disadvantage on this attack. Okay. That reduces. Reduces it to a 17 misses. Yay. Natural force. Wow. There we go. You have to say this whole thing. Every timer doesn't work. Yep. Plus a blade of Windseeker. Is that what you're saying? All right. Sorry. All right. So from that. That goes ahead and his Oryms leap onto it. The attack strikes towards you. As you feel the shadow coming over you, Brayus steps in and deflects it off of the shield. As you dart off of Breus and land onto the top of its headpiece. I hear him shout the name of his armor and the giant hand slam into the ground. I land on top of this thing's head. Hold up a blade blessed by the Wildmother and begin to slash into its eyes. Here we go. Go for it. Why did I do advantage? They were both 18. Could we call it 18? Sure. All right. Shall we come? If it was any different, I would say reroll. But. Yeah. I can roll. I can roll again. No, it was. They were both 18. They were both 18. I saw. Did they punch each other? They infect each other. So that is a 20. That's a 32 to hit. So. And I still have. He's still covered in Orym's. Still covered in small little tendrils of vine and dark flowers. X is still up. So first slash is 22. One die. Second one probably going to miss as a reaction. It's going to use condensed glass. You watch as it psychically pulls glass shards from the nearby ground into it and immediately gains 20 temporary hit points. No. Get rid of these two. So the first attack, how much damage it was. It was 22. 22. All right. So two points of damage. Get across to Kardathos. It wipes out the temporary hit points. But you do immediately take from impacting the crystal shards around it. Yeah. Yeah. You take eight points of psychic damage. Half to four because of my potion of invulnerability. How long does that potion last for? It's. I don't remember. I don't remember. I don't remember. I bet it's definitely an hour. Not 10 minutes. Even if it was definitely not 10 minutes. Even if it was a minute. He just took it for one minute. He just took it, though. He took it at the end of the last fight. And if I allowed him a mint chance. I think you gave. DM giveth. DM taketh away. Don't feel bad. It would have probably been the same things. The potion of vulnerability, unfortunately, is no longer in effect. Are you saying comically, that it's Robbie's fault? Oh, no. It's the first effect on. There's only eight points of second damage so far, but you've blasted through its briefly condensed glass shield. Sure, sure. Second attack was a 17 and missing, unfortunately. Next up, we have a one to hit. 21 just misses the head. Okay, so the head is. What was it? 21 missed. Okay. Yeah. So that was one slash out of three. I will action surge since I'm up here. Okay. Same exact roll. So that misses. That's a 22 damage. 22 deaths hit. 22. 21 points of damage. 21 points of damage. And for the last one, as I'm trying to carve out its eye, I keep rolling too. That misses very low roll. His head is shifting around. As you're trying to hold on to your shield in one hand and the blade in the other, your couple of strikes just go free into the air, not quite hitting it. You bring it down and jam it in a couple times and actually push about a good solid foot into its top of its head crest and then pull free an arc of Pregotho's blood spraying through the air as you're barely holding on as it's shifting, riding it. Does that finish your turn? No. With my 35 passive perception, I realize that I did almost nothing and say, I think we're kind of fucked. That's the end. Okay, that finishes Orym's go. It is now Predathos turn. Fuck. It's his turn. After Orym. After Orym. Foes. Yeah. Predath. Mm do do do doo. Predathos is going to first make a special attack. It's gonna use maw of the red end. Stop it. It's five words. Yeah, yeah. It's a good one against you since you're on top of its head. Yeah, yeah. That's going to be 25 to hit. Yes, sir. All right. So you take. I hear that's a good drama school. I attended Pratra for two years. 38 points of piercing damage. Don't worry, I have my potion of. Nope. I take 30 points. 30 points of piercing damage. As the head the head, as you're trying to hold on, the head seems to like buck upward and kick you off the front of the nose and you go tumbling into the air. As you are spitting in the air, you look down and see its mouth open up from below and its teeth come down onto you. And so that piercing damages all of its razor sharp teeth, crushing into your body and piercing your torso. Make a strength saving throw for me, please. That's going to go well. You're being bitten by a God eater. That is a dirty 20. Dirty 20 is not enough. You watch as Orym is devour. No fucking way. Just vanishes inside and opens its mouth and the glow from the inside begins to build again and Orym is nowhere to be seen. Orym, you are now squeezed down into this somewhat rugged, almost calloused feeling gullet that is glowing all around you. You are just surrounded and being restrained by a glowing tube of leather. It feels like I stole my bonus action, right? You do. I suddenly appear next to Chetney on the hill. Missed a step. Missed a step. You all just see as it opens his mouth, a little burp and Orm appears, barely holding onto the edge. Wow. Hey, Pop. It's also going to attempt to activate limbs. On a 1, 2, 3. It'll be 1. On a 4, 5, 6. It'd like to make 2 and a 4. So he gets 2. Two more limbs. Two more limbs. What limbs does he have? What kind of limbs? Well, here it comes. Here it comes. The one. There's no one over there. That one is going to go ahead and attempt to do another meteoric slam. Oh, it's not new limbs. Oh, it's not new limbs. It's activating the limbs that are already out. This one? Yeah. So that's going to be an attack of against. No, Fearne got pushed out of the range. No, it's going to do ruinous claw against you. I was going to do catapulting blow on you. Oh, okay. Catapulting. All this shit is made up. That's going to be you take 25 points of bludgeoning. Damage reduced to 12. 12. I need you to make a strength saving throw for me, please. That. Well, I'm real bad. Yeah, I'm not good strength saving throw. All right, I think you're. I have very light healing, but it's not. I do not have advantage on this, do I? You're raging. You do. Oh, raging. I have advantage saving throws here. Oh, thank God. Thank God. Well, you roll. You rolled one. I did. It was 1818. So that roll again for your other one now. My other one? Yeah. Not as good. It was 18, 20. Oh, God, it was great. 20, 30. Yeah. Strength save is great. Strength save is fine. Yeah. Okay, gotcha. So the hand tries to grab you and throw you, and as it reaches for you, you bear down. Your feet sink somewhat into the ground, and you hold firm. And the hand just can't quite tear you from your current position before releasing you. Imogen, as you're backing up watching the field, suddenly there's a spray of rock to your side as bursting out of the ground. Another. Whoa. That Spooky is now reaching out into the air and is going to attempt to claw into you. But if its arm is that far out, it would have a real hard time to get through the crown where I am. You're true. And we'll see how it does. Well, it's a 20. You're true. But imagine it's weirdly more flexible than you'd expect. Does that hit your ac? That hits me. Okay, so you don't carto lids. It's got no range. He's got no kneecaps. You take 22 points of slashing damage as it just strikes down and carves into you, pushing you against the wall. And you feel the warm sting of its claws that cut across your torso and your shoulder. Would that have been considered weapon damage? Just for my reference, that would be. It's a melee attack, so it would have been considered more or less weapon damage. But this attack crits on an 18 plus, so he didn't roll that high. So it's ruinous. Claw attack is done from that. And then it finishes its go with a. All right, so now it's used. Miracle devourer. You see in the space around the head, the air just seems to kind of. That hum, that psychic hum gets louder and rhythmic. That's going to finish its turn, though. Fearne, you're up with brace on deck. Hello. Okay, cycling up. So what I'm gonna do, what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna take my scorching ray shots at fourth level, and I'm gonna shoot it at the crystal all around his head, try to take out all that crystal. Are you sure you can't polymorph into a giant crystal arm or some shit? You are technically in melee range with just swing. I have a question. Well, I was pushed back. You were pushed back five feet. But let me check one thing real fast with his arms still have the same melee distance as the other. Arms are because it's really big. Does it have like. That one has a longer reach. That one looks pretty low. This arm goes up to 11. Yeah, that one has a 30 foot reach. Jesus. 30 foot melee. Yep. But it can't just throw it at the base. I was on his armpit. Those are some large. You have a hard. Sorry, Those are some long nails. The nail, technically, the nails alone would have nailed it if you're within five feet of a hostile target. So. No, you're fine. Yeah, you're right. Yeah. It's not attack range. It's five feet. I just had to remind myself that rule. Okay. All right. Scorching ray against the head. At the head. At all the crystal around the head at what level? At fourth. Fourth level. Okay, so that's going to be five scorching rays, I think. Yes, Yep. Yes. Okay, so let's start us off here. So we've got. Oh, balls. We should have given ourselves. Okay. One of those other boons. Anything else? Anything else? Buyer's regret. Yeah. 23. 23 hits. Okay. All right, four more. That's higher. Yeah, just another hit. That's 24. All righty, three more natural 20. Let's go. All right. The middle finger is the crit. Okay. Okay. Okay. What do the other two hit still? She's hit with all of them so far. Okay, that hits for sure. All right. Whoa. 26. All righty. And that hits that. Oh, my gosh. All right. You just like. After all this impact, watching your friends get thrown about, watching Orym get turned, swallowed, and barely escaping, the massive arm breaking through, the intensity of this battlefield is anxiety inducing. But you tapping into both the ruidus sporn within you, the fey strength that you have, and the flaming titan that exists its echoes within your spirit, you hunker down and release five massive rapid fire columns of arcane fire towards the head. So go ahead and roll 8D6 and then roll 2D6 and double that. Okay, so roll 86 first. Okay, so that's legible, dice. I am, I am. I promise. Okay. 4, 5, 6, 7. Okay. Not using any of my teeth. Okay. Okay. Okay, so 16. 20. 28. Yeah. 7. I'm trying to figure it out. Okay, 30. Wait. Okay, 30 points of fire damage. Yeah, No, I think you missed. Wait. 10. 20. 16. 20. 24. 27. 29. 27. Oh, yes. 29. 30. Okay. Okay. 30 points of turn. 30 points fire damage. Roll 2d6 and then double that. Okay. From the crit that you hit, hit with baby teeth. Dice. Don't ever Use a teeth. I know. So four. Four doubled to eight. These are all sugar teeth. And then 38 points damage. And then an additional D6 from your form. And an additional D6. A D8 from my form. Sorry. D8 from your form. D8 from mister. Got it. So that's four points of damage. Total. Total. All right, so a total of 42 points of fire damage on this round. Massive hits. Flames curling up was so hot it shrunk your shirt, Laura. I know it shrunk. All this excessive heat, that's why I don't do rollers. I can't pull my sleeves down. Awesome. So that's your action on your turn. You want bonus and movement. Okay. Okay. So for movement, you can move anywhere within 15ft of that hand without escaping its combat range. However, you are also within the attack range of the master. Kind of like a bad spot. I kind of just want to move out of its. Like, if it's like, here, like, maybe to the. Yeah. That's about as far as you can get without leaving that hand's melee. All right, I will do that. And technically that would move you out of the melee of that hand. Didn't that use its reaction or. That was before its turn. That's true. I mean, they each have their own independent reactions. Okay. And then Mister's gonna throw some shit. Go for it, mister. Mister, that is. Oh, that's 16 plus 28. 28. That's a hit. Save us, Matt. Okay, so that's. It's like, balls it up, gets ready. Burning up the side. If a massive Kaiju could look incredulous at being shat on from a monkey, it would be nice. I mean, that's too easy. Hold on one second. That would be nine points. All righty. Another nine points of damage. All righty. That's 51 points of damage in that round. Fearne. Not too bad. Nice. Alrighty. That's my girlfriend. That finishes Fern's go. Grace, you're up with Dorian on It's my turn. Oh, God. Boy, I don't know. I'm gonna hit it. Bonus action. I'll cast Staggering. Strike that fourth la. Actually, you know what? Hold that at the end of Fearne's turn. No. Change your mind. Change your mind. No, no, no. At the end of Fern's turn, it's going to go ahead and spend one of its legendary actions to use telekinetic vacuum. What is that for? Just such a mess in here. Aurum, it's frustrated that you got away. Yes. No. You know what? The one that really got away and vanished is Laudna. Laudna make a strength save for me. No. Does it know where laudna is? Does it have tremor sense? Dig de. Oh, snig deep. You guys know dig deep. Even if she rolls it, it's not even with a crit. That's the only way. Do it then. Just do it. It's on the bow dice, not the party crit. Holy. I can't. I can't. You. I can't believe. I can't believe that you guys babe Ruthing. This is crazy. Everybody start yelling at your dice. So that buzzing sensation and the air suddenly gets oppressively angry around you. Loud enough and you feel like this energy is starting to pull you from the rock. Your feet start to lift off. You just grab and buckle down, the shadow in your body extending into shadow claws as you dig them into the nearby rock. And you just hunker down until eventually it fades. No effect. Continue your turn. Okay. I will activate Staggering Smite. I can't believe that Chilli. And I will shout at the beast. My God will reward me when I smite you. And I will swing. I will swing big. And I will roll a. Jesus, what is that? 17? No, no, that one. That one. Oh, that's a terrible. Wait, but I have pluses. That's a 20. That doesn't hit. Does 20. Against the head. Against the head. That does not hit. Okay, 22. 22. I will roll again. You're moving into melee with it. Yes. Yes. Second attack. Much better. That's a natural 20. That's an end. Dang. Okay. What? Yes. Okay, so that hits. So that is. Oh, boy. Oh, God. Too much math. Here we go. Let's go. I doubled everything. No, not the smite. Just. No, you double any dice you roll. So the spell does how much extra damage? The spell that I cast is a fourth level spell, and it does an extra 4d6 damage. All right, so roll your weapon damage. Okay. Including your general Divine Special D8 or whatever. Yes. So weapon damage is just 11 points. So 11 points on the dice. All right, go ahead and roll your 46. 15. Okay, so that's 26. All right, so now go ahead and roll. Are you smiting as well or. I'm gonna. I can also divine smite, right? Yes, you can. Yes. I only have a level three spot left. Level three spots left. Left. Right? Is that right? So it has to be bigger. Ah. Where's my spells? Nope, I'm out of threes. Oh, no. I have a three. Yes. So I'll use three so that's 3D8. That's these two giving up Jeff Goldblum Energy. I believe it's 2D8 for the first level. And then it's additional ones for it. Right, so it'd be 48. You're totally right. That's terrible. Nine points. Oh, that's divine. Smile. Okay, so that's 26. Goes to 35. Doubled to 70 plus. What's your weapon damage bonus? Seven. So 77 points of damage, actually pretty nice. That'll do. And because I hit him with this staggering smite, he must make a wisdom saving throw on a failed save of wisdom. 19 bad things will be 23. Sorry. Take your measly 77 pieces. Okay. Okay, that's crazy. But that heavy strike the first one, as it swings wide, the head pulls back, and you just catch the edges of crystal. And your poison pen flickers off the crystal as you angrily spin back. And as you do, you feel the surge of power granted you by your deity, that vengeful fury of the hells below. You channel them into yourself. And please describe to me the color of your smite, if you don't mind. Oh, it's usually black ichor that sprays all over the place. But in my furious rage, fueled by asmodeus, flecks of red start to dance in the smite. And in fact, my black and white body starts to take on sort of a red sheen. And you see me now less as a cowman and more as a devil man because the white and gray fur is starting to become red. You don't have a cow face. That's right. All right, does that finish your turn? Yes. Then also I. Oh, no. I gotta move. Okay, you still have 20 more feet of movement. We're going to stay within melee with it, but rock to the right. Okay. Clip, clop, clip, clop, clip, clop. You will leave the melee range of the hand. Okay, Bring it correct, because that one did. No, that one already took. That one took a reaction on you, so it does not. So you just can move aside. You're right. I was like, no, that one already took one. Okay, that finishes your gore. Dorian, you're up with chetney on deck. Two more points of damage for Mr. How do you want to do this for his flame seed? Because I added plus four, but it's plus six. Final killing blow. All right, Dorian, you're up in chitney on deck. Yeah, I think Dorian, after watching just Braius absolutely kicking ass and everybody's just doing all this, he has this tiny Moment of just sort of feeling fearful and incompetent again. No, I know, I know. You have foresight. As he's floating in the air, but he. He closes his eyes and says, I am Bronte Wyvernwind, only son of the Silken Squall. And then he thinks of his friend Chetney as he looks at him across the thing, teasing him forever about being royalty, and goes, you're prince. And then as I do at seventh. Ninth. Eighth level. I'm just kidding. 700. At eighth level, I'll cast Crown of Stars. Oh, okay. These little nine motes will sort of pop up around his head for my action. Is it seven motes? It'll be. Or is it nine? I'm gonna cast at eighth level, which I get two more. Okay. Okay, let's go, nine motes. You got it. Nine motes. And then for my bonus. And then for my bonus action, I'll look over at Ashton, just looking rough as heck, and I'll cast Healing Word at fourth level as a bonus action. Can I do that? If it's beyond first level, that's two spells you cast on the same turn, unfortunately. Even if it's. Even if it's the same action and bonus action. Correct. Yeah, I can't cast it at all. I won't do that. Yeah, you can only do a cantrip in addition to a spell. Okay. I want to help you, so I know it's. Do you have any healing potions? I don't actually. I think I have two. Yeah, I do have two. These will be adorable. Okay, so instead, I'll use my bonus action to send one of those motes shooting at the hand that Ashton is engaged with. The hand right there. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. All right, so go ahead and roll an attack. Yeah, it would be plus nine. First time I've done this. Let's see. Spell attack. Plus nine. It's not going to do it. Not going to do it. 19. I know. He just fails and then he. Unfortunately, with advantage. Oh, wait, why is it advantage? I do get advantage. Because I get attacked. Sonal. I got attack. Please be good. Oh, that's better. 24. 24 hits. Yay. Okay, so it's a spell. Came in handy. It really did. Use that nine bubble spell. 15. And I get two of them. Not great. 17. 17 points of radiant damage. And that will finish my turn. As it strikes and impacts. That hand is looking like it's starting to sustain some damage. And of course, part of that damage causes the head to wince. Nice. All right, you want to Stay put. Yeah, I like my position. Okay, you got it. So finishing your go, Chetney, you're up. I'm going to pat Orm on the and go back in the fight. And I'll jump and slide down the embankment as I head down towards the head. Coming from behind. Across from Brayus. Yeah, exactly. And seeing where Brayus moved to. I'm in a flank. You got it. And with my bonus action, can I cast Bane? Okay. No, that's an action. Ignore me. I'm not going to do that. I'm going to take two swings with turmoil, actually. And instead, let's go advantage. That's 28 to hit. 28 hits. The second one is so close, but not quite 29 to hit. That's awesome. Yes. They both hit. As a reaction, it's going to use condensed glass to gain 20 temporary hit points. Tennis turn sense. And so the glass fills up around it as you're sliding in to strike it, and you watch the crystals kind of build up around its face. You son of bitch. I will use a curse against you for that. I swear. That is. Oh, nice. That was a reaction that it did that way. Oh, you know what? Actually, hold on a second. I'm gonna retroactively pull that back a little bit. Okay. So he didn't get the 20. No, he did do it as well at the top of his turn. He actually regenerated 50 temporary hit points at the top of his turn. But Fern burned through the majority of that, so. Yeah, so you tore through it and busted through, and the damage will still come through. So. Yeah. But as a note, you're watching at the top of its turn, it regenerates all those crystals and kind of gives it an additional shield. We have things that can make him. Not so slowly. The 20th. I do, I do, I do, I Do. 16 plus 6 is 22. The first one did 29 points of damage. That breaks the temper hit points, leaving nine to go over and then 22 on the second strike because of sneak attack and the crimson rite and stuff. Right now, this is turmoil. Does it do additional thunder damage? It does. Thank you. 1d8 each time. That was the whole point of doing it. I wanted to see what the thunder did. So that's one point of thunder damage and eight points of thunderdoor 18. All righty. Gotta get back on that thunder horse. I don't know what that means. Also, great song. Yes. Thunder horse. Thunder horse. For my bonus action, I'm gonna use Blood curse. Blood curse of bloated agony on the head. Okay. All right. For the duration, creature has disadvantage on strength, and Dex checks and takes 1d8 necrotic damage if it takes more than one attack on its turn. Okay. Are you amplifying it or not? No. Okay, just the one. All right, cool. Got it. All right. Does that finish you? Go. Yes. All right, that brings us to initiative count 20. It's gonna go ahead and. Let's see here. If I can move 13, the 3 is only gonna move one of them. It's going to go ahead, and that's going to hold there. This one is going to go ahead and appear and shift over there. Does it drag through the ground or does it pull down into the. It pulls down into the ground somewhere else and then burst through again. Oh, God. Kind of getting kind of bursting on both sides of Fearne right now. Both the hands are, like, curling up. All right, that finishes that one's gonna stay. They're gonna stay. All right. At the end of Kenshin should have count 20. And technically, Stern's gonna use his other two legendary actions. No, no. I've seen this in the. No, no. Screech of the ravaged mind. Screech of the ravaged mind. As the center of Predathos head tucks in, its teeth clench, and you can hear this horrible grinding, scraping sound as its whole jaw pushes in. Its eyes close, and you watch as the crystals get brighter and brighter until the entire room gets extremely bright in the area. Long shadows being cast from all the nearby broken crystals before it opens its mouth and no sound comes out. While all of you feel this piercing sound in your mind, everyone within 30ft of the head. Head has to make a constitution saving throw. Okay, 30ft would be Chetney. Technically, Laudna's just out of it, and technically, so is Orym, but breus, fearne, mister. Oh, you're right out of the ranged. Dorian. Mr. Is just out of ranged, too. But Fern's within. Mister's out of range. Yeah, so it'd be Fern, Brayus, and Ashton. Wait, let me see. Ashton. Oh, wait, I get advantage on Ashton is within 30ft. Yeah, just barely. So constitution saving throw. All right. Advantage on that because of brand of castigation. 22. Okay, 22. Is that is just enough? Oh, Jesus. Just enough. No advantage on Con, if I recall. No. So that's. That would be 24 points. Psychic damage reduced to half. 12. Oh, jeez, help us. I'm at 25. 25 is a success. So you take 12 points a second. Okay. Fearne four. Really? 20? I say 25. Was it 24. 24 points a second. Hardly get more evasion. You can use it once per turn. Ashton's and singles. What? But maybe it'll be something bigger because one of those ones was like 50 something. I'm about to have a barber down. Barber down. Listen. Or at least take evasion. Barber iffy. I'm using evasion. Well, evasion has to be against an attack. This is kind of a blast. I think. I just wanted to let you know that I have. It's not a spell. Hold on. So I can evasion. Dexterity saves. Sorry. Specifically which this constitution saves me. Can he dodge is what you're thinking on melee. Yeah. So on Kane dodges weight on melee attack. Sorry, I got that mixed up. Don't you have Uncanny. But it's for deck save. Specifically Correct. Can you do Uncanny. But that'll be. Yeah, but then. So then I take half damage if I do Uncanny. But I wonder if I should save it. I will. You can't use it against this because it's just. It's a radial blast. A physical attack against you is what you get to uncanny dodge. 24. It's fine. 24 point psychic damage. All right. With that, I got a 25 on my six. That's okay. 25 on yours. So you also take 12 points of negative damage. 12 points. All right, Imogen, it's your turn with Ashton on deck. Okay. Okay. Okay, look, what I'm gonna do, I'm using my movement and I'm gonna come around here, right here on this side of this hand. Like here. Right. So. And I'm going to line up these three. Come on. That's a good shot. At eighth level. I'm gonna transmute my lightning and shoot out a blast of thunder damage. Thunder. Thunder. Thunder. Okay. Thunderbolt. All right. Oh, quick note. You weren't concentrating on any spells. Right. I was. No, I was. No, you were. What were you concentrating on? My smite stays. It stays. It stays. Well, my concentrate saving throw. That's 11. 11. I took 12 points of damage. Yeah. You maintain concentration. Wait. Oh, but we have disadvantage on it because the screech of the ravage. Mine wants a disadvantage on concentration checks. That's 18. Yeah. You're fine. Okay, retract. I have to make one for hex as well because I got bit. That's true. Yeah. Hex is now. Well, no, I'd say it's the same kind of entity. I'd allow it to stay. To stay. Okay. Not gonna argue. Love that for me. So roll 2d8 for the two damage you did earlier. 2d. I'm doing 2d8 for damage. I'm sorry, 2d6 for your hex. You did two strikes before and didn't roll for hex damage. No, no, I'm saying I have a concentration spell up hex. Correct. But did you roll the hex damage for the two times you hit before? Yeah, just rolled it right into. Okay, great. All right, so we're good then. Sorry. So you are doing a thunder lightning bolt arcing through those. All right, let's go. So go ahead and roll damage. What level are you doing it at? This is an eighth level. Eighth level. This is. Oh, my God. Okay, this one goes to a net end, so that's 13D6. 13D6. Oh, do you want to split it or. No. Hand over there. No, I don't need to because scales are the three. The center hand. Oh, that's gonna be an 18. Fail. Fail. The head. That's gonna be an 18 as well. Fail. Yes. It's gonna use legendary resistance to succeed on the head. Okay. And it's gonna use another one to succeed on the other hand. So it's used two of his legendary resistances, but now essentially, Misyus, you're doing straight damage. All three would have succeeded, so you would take. They'd be taking half damage, but because they were vulnerable, they all take full. Okay. 11. That's a lot of dice. Yes, it is. I don't know if I have enough. 12. 13. No, I got it. Okay. What am I talking about, y'all? I have it. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. 12. Another 12. 24. 34. Um. 34. 38. 40. Guys, 44. This combat is brought to you by Wizkids and their Tastes of Exandria Charms, available for pre order now, discover some of Exandria's tastiest treats. Show off your love of Scanlan's Hand Pies, pocket bacon, and Strong Jaw ale with these 11 unique charms. 48 points. Yay. That was a five. Pre order today at your local game store, WizKids IO tastes. Oh, my goodness. Do any of those get doubled? Or is it. Did they all save? They all saved. So just straight damage as opposed to half damage. 48. However, the head takes half damage from the two other ones that you hit. No. None of them saved. But you. Legendary, legendary resistances. Two legendary resistances I burned so that they could save one of them. Saved, Correct. None of them saved. They all failed. The hand. The first one failed, right? That's right. They all failed. But you Only two. Legendary resistance. Right? So this one is going to take the full brunt of the damage, okay? Which causes it to shatter entirely, blasting into glass shards throughout the chamber. That one already looks pretty hurt. And is blasted into this head as well. That head takes. So it takes 96 points of damage. Oh, my God. And I'm gonna do two strikes on the head. This is Coleman with my bonus action custom Paratha's piece. Shout out to Col McGinn. Since it's 2812/14 is 26 on the first spectral blade or barrier blade or whatever the fuck it is. Okay, so that's. She's going ham. Horse girl is going ham. 20. 27. 28 points on the first hit. All right, come on, come on, come on, come on. Wait, that's 18. That's a crit. 18 is a crit. Oh, yeah, we heard it from your shit. From your shit. Still. No, no, no, she spelled that. She cast. It crits an 18 plus. And when it crits 12D12. When it crits, it does 12D12. My God. Oh, my God. Is Horse the same damage as Thunder damage? No, they are different. Banished. They are. Oh, my God. Horse just does standard damage. Thunder is the one. It seems to be 24. 24. But why 34? Because the crystalline structure of it seems to not do well. God. 51. 57. Physical vibrations. 59 points. 59 points. Hold on. In one round, you've done over 170 points of damage. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. So as it blasts through with one hand, explodes and shatters, the arm in front of you recoils and slams into the wall. Stone and bits of glass fall and shatter across the ground around you. And you have to shield yourself. You look past at the head, its head pulls back for a second, its jaw slack as it has to knock it back into place. And you can see inside its mouth. A lot of its crystalline teeth have shattered and broken off to the side. And the head just looks seared and burned really bad. I have a wood. Wood chisel. That's my move. I'm not gonna move because I don't want to take the hit. All right, that finishes your go. Ashton, you're up with Laudna on deck. Damn. 170. Damn. I have noticed that the head actually does damage when people hit it. Like when you hit the head that clearly it does damage to you. The head takes damage when people hit it, but, like, you take damage when you hit the head as well. It's possible. Okay, you've seen people get hurt when they hit it. Yeah. All right. All right. Shit. Fuck. Which of these two hands looks like it's having the worst day right now? The large one that's nearest, although you cannot see anybody near it at the moment. But that one just got blasted with a thunderous bolt of lightning. Where are you, Laura? I'm behind this giant. You don't know. She would have seen her. Like, you would have seen her probably move behind. You see the source of the lightning bolts I'm gonna do. I'm gonna line that up for some advantage and I'm just gonna run at this thing. I'm gonna take a. Just fucking jump at it and I'm hitting it with that fucking elbow break right there. Alrighty. Cause I don't know what else to fucking do. Here we go. That's 14, 24, 14, 28 to hit. So I rolled a concentration check, by the way, and I saved. So. All right, that's 2D6. Fuck it. I'm going to roll a chaos burst into this. Just because, you know. Yolo. Did you decide to not do his healing action? Is that what we're hearing? It ain't going to matter. It's too little. It's too little. Ain't going to matter. Which is fine for one round. So that's gonna be. Oh, lightning. That's nice. So that's going to be. Oh, I did that wrong. Sorry, hold on. It was actually I rolled lightning again, so it doesn't matter. Okay. Five points of lightning damage never change. Okay. And then comedy. So what's the total amount? That was five points of lightning damage and then 23 points of normal damage, 23 points of bludgeoning damage. Okay, got you. All right, that's the first attack. That was first attack, second attack. Dead. Yep. Oh, thank God. For advantage. That's 25, 26, 30 to hit. 30 to hit. That hits. Let's do another. Come on, dude. Let's do another chaos burst, see what the fuck we get. That's seven. Seven. That's psychic damage. We'll see what psychic damage does. Four points of psychic damage plus 25 points of budgeting damage. Okay. Massive. Great. And is it fucking worth it? Yeah. No, because, I mean, like, honestly, if I roll this perfectly, it's just like 20 hit points. Nope. I'm going to. I'm gonna scoot back so that I'm not into and not in the. The realm of. Of actually towards me. Okay. Like there. Even a little further. Just not. I don't want to trigger it, but I want to get out of the cone of fair. Yeah. Okay. That finishes your gun. That's what I got. All right, Laudna, you're on deck. Laudna, you're up with Orym on deck. Okay. Shit. I should have gotten closer to you. So you can still get a D4. A few things have changed. Just a few. I know. And it kind of changed my plan a little bit. Last minute, it. But you've got an emergency. What? I will do long does Hex last? How long does Hex last? An hour. Cool. Just double check. I'm going two. Goodness gracious. Plotting, plotting. Don't look at her face. Sorry. Once again, things changed a little bit. You're stalling. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. No, I'm teasing, Travis. I am. Would Bane help in this situation? I mean, it does a 1D4 to hands and face, right? You could do both hands on the head. Would Bane. If I cast it on one, would I be able to. They're all individual targets, so you'd have to cast them on all of them. But you know what? It. Let's do that. I'm going to cast Bane. What's the range on Bane? 30ft. 30ft. You're right. Never mind. That's not great. That's not great. Okay, you got your band. Okay, I'm sorry. I'm coming. I'm coming. Very clinical, just like this. I'm coming, I'm coming. Almost, almost. It's the best I've ever. One of the few honey guy jokes, actually. Yeah. Oh, you're so big. I am going anyway. Hi, kids. I'll throw a fireball on his ass at 4 level on just ahead. I'll take it for a guy. Actually. No, I'll just do it. No, I'll do. I'm not doing it. What is happening over here? Yeah, I'll do third level. I guess I'm. Gosh. Because then I would get braced, but also fuck him a little bit. Yeah, exactly. It's up to you. Because I could get. You can get both of them, but in order to do so, you'd get braced as well. But if I scooch it this way a little bit. Then you scooch it this way. You'll get Fern. But you're. I'm immune to fire. You're immune to fire, so I'll do that. I'll kind of go, okay, yeah, you can totally get the hand and Fern. Yeah, Fern, that's right. In this form, you're immune to fire. Fire, baby. Yeah. You can do that Fernie, you're going to feel a little tickle, but you're sparing me. Why? We'll talk later. You're not off the hook. Level three fireball. Level three. We're gonna just keep it simple. Shoots down and detonates a swirl of what color flame? Oh, it's like a purplish black purple. Like fire just bursts and swirls around the space. Go ahead and roll. 8D6. I'm getting better. I'm getting better at fire. That was so good. Thank you. The hand fails, I think, with a 16 fail. Yep. The head. That's much better. That's a 25. 25. Okay. Yeah. He saves on a Dex save. Correct. Okay. That's one dex. 10. 15. 20. It's more of a psychic defense field that I switched. So 25. It gets a straight bonus across all of its saving throws because of its psychic powers. Much like how a paladin gets it for its divine powers. Yeah. 25. Dimash. All righty. I am then going to quicken a spell, and I'm going to do chill touch on his head. Chill touch on his head. All righty. Sounds chill touch. I have to roll to hit. I have to roll to hit. Let's go. Come on, come on, come on. Yeah, baby. Let's go. Thirty total. Thirty total. Thirty total. All righty. That'll hit. Go ahead and roll. Damage on the chill time. Adm. Yeah. When you did that 30ft first, everybody. Yep. Because of brandy castigation did six points of damage to you of psychic damage because it just attacked. Yeah. Anytime you attack me within five feet because of brand of cash. That's true. All right, Great. Points of damage to it. Boom. Hell yeah, baby. Yeah. Okay, big money. You know the details. It's important. Good. Follow 20. Okay. 20. Necrotic damage. All right. And he cannot regain hit points until the top of my next turn. Okay. Yeah. Although. Have you used any of those? I used to set it until the start of my next turn. Yeah. I'm assuming he's not undead, right? Huh? I'm assuming Predathos isn't undead. Prothos is not undead. Okay. All right, cool. So good to know. Stephan, finish your turn. That finishes my turn. Do you want to stay put or do you want to move? Can I even just scooch back just a little further? Scooch back into there behind the rock up there. Self careful. You got it. I still have line of sight and everything you do, you do. And you have half cover while you're up there. As well, great. That's my turn. All right, Orym, you're up. Oh, man. Orym has been watching wounded Ashton this whole time, and he's moved so far away, there's nothing I can't get to him. So instead, he is going to squat down and spring off of his perch and land in the crystal, kind of above and forward from Chet. Right here in the crystal. In the crystal. Not that crystal. Oh, this one right here. Head crystal. All right, into there. Go ahead and make an acrobatics or athletics check. Yep. That is a 23. Easy enough to do. You manage to catch on a crystal and slide in towards where they gather. As opposed to accidentally impaling yourself on one of them. Yep. But you catch yourself right there. Would you say, since I'm diametrically opposite of Brayus, that I am in flanking? Unfortunately, the flanking position is currently occupied by Chetney. Okay. So you can't flank from all the angles. It's just a direct opposite. So as long as he's in flanking, you cannot. But there's a creature directly between him and me. Okay. Sorry. No advantage. I get a. Trying to keep it balanced. 30 to hit. You can't all flank from one dude standing there. But good. Checking out. But good. Checking out. Flank, flank. 30 to hit. 30 hits. That is 21 points of damage. I'm just. There's not much I can do here, so I'm just slashing away. Yeah, good. That is a miss. All righty. And that is a 26 to hit. 26 hits. That is dirty. 20. That's 20 points of damage. Okay. Yep, that's it. And I look over to Ashton in the middle of it all, and I stay put. That's it. Okay. It is Pronathos. Go Legendary actions. You don't have to do this. Wine red. Like, okay. Oil coming out of the crack, like, shift. And the ground kind of cracks open as its head vanishes beneath the stone. The head. The head. Oh, he's gonna pop up somewhere else. God, there's nowhere to run. Well, there's. To be fair, the sword is gonna be floating right about. Places to run. There. Where it was. Shut up. Action. There's so many places to run. There's nowhere to run. And this is going to shift. What if he. What if the head appeared, like, on the end of the arm right there? Emerges from the opposite side? See if it gets. Ooh, yeah. It's that bad. He goes. Ooh. Sorry. Scary. I know. Yeah. Oh, no. So I wish Matt didn't know how long it works. Yep. Let's roll and see if it's a 1 to 3 or 4 to 6. No. So it only activates or only calls forth one limb. Oh, oh, calls forth as in. But we just. No, maybe it's not so bad. Maybe it just goes high five. This one here. So, by the way, there we go. That'll get hit with that hand that's up there. Okay. Is that whack it comes carving out there? Try and keep a nice radius there as you vanish between the rocks. It's going to begin. Damn, people. We just watched Tobalo from there. It's going to go ahead and do Shriek of Oblivion. Because it did return a line there. But this is the one. If you succeed, you don't take any damage. Correct. It's an all or nothing. So with that, black energy spills from the inside around the middle of it. It's like crystal rough. The mouth opens this horrible shrieking sound out that tears across the field. This horrifying beam just spills across and arcs upward. I need Fearne, Dorian, Orym and Chetney to all make dexterity saving throws for me, please. Got a one. I'm rerolling 11. I got advantage because of foresight. You do. Dex. Saving. Yes. Now it's a 20. You should roll again. Yeah, yeah. Just for fun. What if it's another 20? That is 30. Oh, boy. All right. So advantage 27. 27 is a success. You take no damage. Dorian. Nat. 20 success, no damage. Burn. So, Constitution. You said decks. Decks. Sorry. Decks. Decks. Same 19. Evasion. Evasion. Evasion. A 19 is a failure. So evasion. So you still take. So you fail. You still take half damage. So take half of 67 points of necrotic damage. So that'd be 33 points of necrotic damage. Don't say 16. You take 67 points of dark damage. Can I even if I use evasion or, you know, getting used to these things. Uncanny dodge. We're watching her learn. The evasion is what allowed you to half that. Because it was a dexterity save. Yeah. You take half on a failure, the evasion would be the 30. Correct. Uncanny dodges versus attacks. And that's a reaction to do that. Zero damage on a success. I have 30 hit points left. So either way. So you don't use evasion and die. So I don't use evasion and just die. Oh, wait, you didn't have. She goes unconscious. Fearne. As soon as the black beam carves through and the black energy arcs upward, the shadow scatters and you See Fearne flickering unconscious on the ground as Mr. Is coming up and going forward and shaking her and ormusic. The 67 points in a chronic damage. So that's going to start with that. Now it's going to activate two of its limbs. Whoa. Hold on, hold on. Space yourself. We will remember Fearne. She made a good sacrifice for the Lord of Lives. This one over here is going to come for Ashton. She fought bravely. No, it took a lot of damage. It's going to come after Imogen. I heard. Sorry. Sorry. I heard it hurt. All right. I was going to commit you for natural 19. Yeah. It's going to be 33 to hit. That, that, that, that, that. How are you? Are you. Are you bad? I'm okay right now. I shouldn't say that. I feel great. This is for the Ruinous Claw. The what? I'm a Ruinous born, so I'm immune to it. Unfortunately, it's not. Yeah, the evolving. You jerk. 29 points of slashing damage. Wait, that was a natural 19. That's a crit. Look at him smile. Silver barbs. How far away from you are? What's the range? 60. You're a million miles away. It is 120. It's over 120ft from you at the moment. So sorry. So on that. Sorry I said that was how much? That was 29. 29. So taking off this plus six, that'd be 23. Double would be 46. Plus six, that's gonna be 52 points of slashing. Sweet. Fuck. Didn't you just say you were doing five out loud? I told you I shouldn't have said it out loud. You took. I took? Yeah, Real fast. This hand over here is gonna try and strike towards Laudna. You do have plus 5 to your AC against the attack because you have half cover hiding at in those alcoves. But it's going to try and now reach for the one. That's time. Throwing fireballs just out of reach. So that attack's going to be you though. Would it have gone away? How long does Mirror Image last? A minute. When he hits. Why are you asking those questions? Listen, he was not invulnerable anymore. She wouldn't have mirror image. Does 20 hit you? Would I? It is one minute. So you're right. Mirror Image is probably gone. Mirror Image is gone. 20. 20 is exactly my AC shield. It's 120 with the plus. Yeah. Then shield would cause it to avoid you. Yeah. So shield. So as the massive claw comes rocketing towards you, you buckle down and release the shield. And it slams over the shield and grasps all the rock around you. Cracks. And you feel it shift. And it's like the hand is palming the shield around you as it slowly pulls away. Bits of rock and stone and glass dropping from its fingers as it pulls back. All right. And it's going to maintain its. Actually, let me see if that comes back. That does not come back. So it's miracle barrier sun. However, it did get its 50 temporary hit points. No, no, no, no. Regaining hit points is different from gaining temporary hit points. I looked it up. So in my view, it can't heal itself. And so its miracle devourer does not heal itself if it devours healing around it. But temporary hit points are its own. So it gets temp hit points, but it can't regain hit points. Correct. So if we start healing, it's not gonna take the half, but it can get its 20. It does the miracle power if we start healing. So if you heal within a radius of can have your healing and then heal itself with some of what? It won't be able to do that, but it won't be able to do that until the end of your next turn. Take half of our healing. That's good. So that's going to finish its turn. It's crystal shield is up. Finishing that. Go, Fern. Top of your turn. I need you to roll a death saving throw. Come on, Fernie. Don't roll the T. Roll 20. So I'm rolling, I'm rolling. I'm rolling a D20. Yeah, and you're rolling a D20 and you're gonna get 20. You're rolling a D20. You want a 10 or higher or a natural 20? Natural 20. If I roll a 20, what happens? You come back up. Yeah. You win. D and D. Oh no. Oh no. What does that mean? Did you do a one? No. Did you roll a natural one? Uh huh. Oh. So that's two death saves. You are one step away from death. All right, finishing Fearne's turn. Brayus, you're up. We told you to do the opposite. I told it to. And I told it to not do that. We did not die forever. Our audio podcast listeners can't see all of our stupid cave mouth faces right now just hanging open. So that means. So I mark off two failures. She rolled a one. Reyes, it's your turn. Save her. Make it leave a mark. Matt. Hurt us, don't hurt us. You're dead. Like dead dead. Yes. Focus. Fine. It's fine. It's fine. It's going to be fine. It's going to be fine. Stop it. Get it together. Get it together. Get your fucking head in the game. Let's go. Oh, are you yelling at your tiny dice? Yes. Yes. Where? Whose turn is it? My turn is it. It's my turn. Actually, it is the. At the end of Fearne's turn, I'm gonna go ahead. That was Fern's turn. Activate a limb. I'm. That's Fern's turn. That was turn. That's how she. Death save. It's going to swipe at you. Me? Yep. God damn it. That's gonna be a 23 to hit. Come on. What? Who's it swinging at? Me. Oh, shit. I should have known for. From the. From the reactions. Shit, shit, shit. All right, so with that, that's going to be 21 points of slashing damage against you. Well, four. Are you still up? Four. What is the meaning of this? Okay, okay. All right. Pray, continue with your turn, please. Ask a question. Yes, you may. So would I be. I wouldn't drop this form, Rhett, would I? No. The form maintains. The four maintains. Okay, yeah. You were still on the ground, flickering and flames wreathed around you. You were just not conscious and on death's door. Okay, okay, okay. But Dorian's up first. He will be after Brayus. Brayus is a healer. I have a singular mission, and that is to kill Predathos. So I will do that. It would be so much easier to kill Predathos if you had people helping teammates helping you. I look at reason. I'm an army of one. Sam decides tonight to be evil. I love it. It's not evil. It's pragmatic. Really not. How does it feel? You guys can convince me. I am convincing you right now. Look at my nipples and help us. How are you. How are you convincing me? Stick. Did you just show me your titty? That might work. It might work. That might work. Do it. Can you roll a persuasion check? I can't roll my titties. Roll a performance. Are you doing this one titty? Sure. My titties disadvantage. Wait, does she get a bit bigger? Her heart's really not in it. Oh, wait, I have a really high persuasion 20. Whoa, shit. What do I roll? What do you want to roll? Do you want to just do it? Think what you want to do. That's very high tit roll. You got a perky little booby. Yes. Awesome. Here. Roll a D20 and add your wisdom. Saving throw. Okay. Oh, that's pretty good. I love that you're making him. Or you could just help. So you save us. You're helping us. Well, you are momentarily distracted and briefly caught in the crossfire of a nipple flash. I was just hiding, just barely behind this. You don't even see my face. It's just a titty, but it's like streaked with glowing teeth. Really nice titty. Just think, you could save two more of those on Pern. There's more where those came from. It's like you saw one of those globes at Sharper Image. Brayus Is lay on hands in action. Act as you wish. Yeah. Is lay on hands in action. Shit, that's my whole fucking turn to save this fire lady. Yeah. No, you wanted to say it. Fire lady. Do what you think you would do. Okay, you do your thing. You do your thing. You do you. Bryus, if you want to do something, pretend I didn't show you my tit and just be yourself. How can I pretend that that didn't happen? We didn't kind of go through a rigmarole. I have seen. I have seen gods appear before me before. And this is a divine sign. I will take it as such. And I will run. I will run to Fearne. Yeah. I will kneel down before Fearne and pray to my God and say, my Lord, you have shown me much, but you never showed me that I have seen true heaven today. And I will touch Fearne and use my last remaining lay on hands pool, which is three points. But it gets her up. It gets her up. Now, in theory, you could save it and just do one, which is just enough to get her. That's true. Yeah. It's. Honestly, I will be selfish and save the other two. So I'm saying from a tactical standpoint, that is pretty smart. You might have to do that again at this scale. Yeah, you know what, let me just see one more thing. And because she's a bride of asmodeus, she takes 20. Sure. I'm actually back up to full. Look, I gave you a titty out of initiative. As with so many others. One glimpse of a booby in all religion, just. Yes, yes, yes. And for my bonus action. For my bonus action, I will. Well. Is Laudna. Sorry, first moment. Just turn this in. The beginning of the end of Evangelion. Is Laudna within. Within inspiring range of me? Probably not. Laudna. Gala's humor. Yeah, you. How. What's your range? 60. I guess I could have done it before I moved. Oh, you're way up. No, you're way. Oh, She's. Oh, my God. She's halfway up. Before you moved, you could have. I would have. You would have been just in range before you moved. If you. All right, I will inspire Laudna by saying I'm not all bad. I painted this. Oh, my God. Wow. So good. I'm a sucker for presents. Give it to me. I throw it to her. Make an athletics check for me. Okay. Okay. Athletics is 22. 22. You catch it in the middle of the air like a boomerang. We're getting there. We're getting. So I show her my titty. It's an udder. Do you have an utter ring? Yeah. Like, there's also Pierce. I have five utter rings in clutter. Incredible. All right, I'm gonna go ahead and at the end of your turn, use another legendary action to activate a limb. I'm gonna go ahead and have the hand. It's gonna strike at you again. Ugh. That's gonna be a 24 to hit. Shit. Are you. I'm behind the limb. Okay. It's not a. A great damage roll, as we need 20 points of slashing damage. Okay, she's rocked now. All right. And with that. Top of the. Dorian, you're up with Chetney on deck. No, but I will on the next effort. Give me that picture again. I'm going to use my movement to fly up, Engage with big hand one. Okay. Sort of right at the wrist. No how. And oh, oh. Cause you're, like, peeking out of a door. That's cool. I like that. I know. Painted. That's amazing. Me. All right, Dorian, you fly up to the edge of that wrist. I'll draw my sword off my back, and I'm just going to start hacking away at the wrist. Yeah, this looks very damaged. Okay, good. Yeah. 14, but I have advantage. No, it's better. 14. 23. 27. 27 hits. Go ahead and roll damage on that. Okay, great. 5 plus 7. 12. 12 points of damage. And then I'll take that. You carve through with one massive slash, and you watch as you cut through most of the wrist. The hand tries to claw in reaction, and it breaks. And you watch that the hand falls off, the rest of it crumbling to the ground. It was barely holding on. Okay, great. I had more to do, but now I don't have to. You can still move. You still have. Could I get to the other hand with my. What's your speed on 40 when I'm flying? 40, you could not get back to the hand, but you could get to the head if you Want to. You just have to land. Yeah, let's do it. I'll fly over to the head and I'll use my second attack. Go for it. So you kind of land on the ground right next to the massive head of Predathos. I got 17. 17, 23. Yeah, 17 and 13. Yeah, that was 30, but, yeah, that hits. Go for it. Okay, good. So that's another six. Bad. Have you been doing constitution saving throws, by the way, to maintain your blade? Jesus Christ. That failed now. Oh, no. What was that? I rolled over all my other dice, but, yeah, it landed on a one on top of my other dice. The blade vanishes. I feel like that was only 8 slashing, but then I'll use my defensive flourish. Blade did a fair amount of damage in the time he was on the board. That's bad. So what's that advantage? Do I get to use that on the damage rolls? I don't. No, I don't think so. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's just doubled. I get advantage. Cause it's a con save. Making a concentration. You do. So roll one more time. Come on, come on. Don't do it. Come on, come on, come on. 17 plus. All right, that'll hold onto it. And you took a second swipe earlier. We didn't roll four, so roll with advantage. One more time. Natural 20. Yes, yes. The blade remains. There we go. The blade of. I'm still chilling over here. Blade of vibes. Awesome Blade of vibes. Good on you, Laura. All right, so just another little two points of damage slashing, and then I get an extra one to my AC because I did defensive flourish. Great. And then for my bonus action, now that I just learned how that worked, I'll do now. I'll do healing. Word at Is Ashton within 60ft? You think Ashton maybe is within 60ft? Let me triple check and make sure it's 60ft, which I think it is. I think healing order is 60ft, I'm pretty sure. And yeah. Okay, cool. And then 68. Yeah. So, yeah, we've got a couple in 68, but that's only one person. What are you sitting at? Got it. What are you sitting at? I'm at 31 points and you're single digits. Oh, yeah. That's fair. Yeah, yeah. Hey, that's pretty good. 6, 10, 12. And then again. Whoa. What level is this? 8. Oh, I did it at level 4. So it's 8. 8, 8D4. And was that 4? 4, 4, 12, 14. That's great. Wow. 1214 plus 3. Okay. Yeah. 29 points of healing. Oh my God. Dang. Yeah. Helps a lot. That'll do it. Okay. Oh, that's better. That finishes your turn. End of your turn. It's gonna use its last legendary action there. Do you have healing potions with her? No, I gave it to my mom. Oh, that's right. Yeah. It's gonna activate limb. Okay. Okay. And it's gonna attack you, Fearne. No. You're up. So your death saving throws have cleared Tiltermania. Tilter mania. She has a chance. I had a turn to get up. Oh, no. So it has advantage on the attack because you're prone. Okay. Except it doesn't because I'm gonna impose disadvantage thanks to Truthbearer fabled plate of Uthar Vend. I'm gonna tell you an old wow joke when we get to break this fits perfectly for. So that's gonna make it a 20 to hit with a disadvantage. What's your AC? My AC is 17. 17. It's gonna hit you. Do I. That's it. Evasion. Do you have shield? Do you have spell puffs shield? You can do that? Do you wanna do it? Yeah, I'm gonna. That'll make it miss. It's time to do it. So you go ahead and expend one of your first level spell slots as a rogue arcane trickster. Cast shield on yourself. And it just arcs past you, almost sending you right back into the darkness. You barely avoid being thrust into an unconscious state. Once more. That's the time to use it. That's the time to use it. That disadvantage saved your ass too. Yes. Thank you, Brace. No problem. Easy ball. So with that finishing Dorian's turn of chenyer, I have to make a change because you're the same. Now do the deal. Do the deal. No, I know. Okay. With my bonus action I'm gonna do. I'm going off the range here. What are you doing? My bonus action. I'm gonna click my boots of speed which will up my speed to 80. Oh yeah. I'm gonna break for Imogen. All right. And I'm going to use. I'll get you right there. Nice. I'm gonna use the staff of Dark Odyssey to cast blink on you, which will take you off the map in between turns. Oh my God. Okay. Teleport out of here when we need to. No, but I think we were already smoked on teleport. Yeah, we gotta protect the big guns. And they all are at the same level for sure. So that'll be two charges and you'll have blink on you. Thank you. Solid. That's massive. Do I roll now? You are now concentrating on blink. Yes. So you know. So I'll mark that there I will inhabit you. And how much do I have Any distance left over? It took you 80ft to get there. She was 80ft away from you. Amazing. Nice hoped across the field. I will. Well, I was going to say I'll fall over like I passed out. I'll take out the sword and say, look, as I. We still have a bonus action. Bonus action was clicking the boots of Splash. That's right. Yeah. There you go. That's my smash. And that's if I. If I roll 11 or higher, I blink out. Yeah. Okay. All right, that finishes your turn, Chetney. It now comes to the second or the level 20. Let's see if it moves one or two. I know, yeah. It's going to be two movements. So this hand vanishes beneath and then emerges right next to the two of you. Dammit. Actually right between the two. So it now has all three of you in combat range. And then this hand is going to shift and just locks itself out in the open so it can keep as many people as it can within its melee range. Imogen, you're up with Ashton on deck. Okay. Oh, Jesus. Oh Jesus. Oh Jesus. Okay, I'm going to, for my bonus action, use a spectral My blade. Beginning of the turn or is the end of the turn? She rolls for it. I think with Blink it's the end. Yacht. Yes. Blink is the. Okay, so you're gonna move the subspecial blade up and over near this? Yeah. My, my, my. Blade of disaster. Let's go. Alrighty, so go ahead and roll for an attack. 10 plus 14. 20. 14. 24 hits. Okay. 16. 19. 24 points of damage. Geez Louise. 16 plus 14. That definitely hits. Okay, that was a bad roll. 3 plus 3 is 6. Plus 3 is 9. 9 points. 9 points of damage on that. You got it. All right, so striking into it, carving through the hand, it does a fair chunk of damage to the base of it. The claw is sweeping around, taking the space. The head's still wincing with the attacks that the other hands sustain. Is that your bonus action? Oh, God. What's your action? God. Okay, got a sixth level left, so I'm going to move over damage dealers. Sorry, chat. I'm going to move right here and I'm going to do a six level lightning bolt to both of those. Yep. Transmutated to thunder damage. All righty. So that as you clap your hands together, that is Going to be a failure on the one that's nearest to you. Both got natural fours that's going to save its last legendary resistance. Resistance. They're both failures, so they do double damage. 12, 18, 28. Yep. 30. 42 points. That's thunder. So it's thunder times two. So 84 points of damage. Brutus, porn it up. Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on. Okay, you see Chet's face turn from a wolf back into the old man. This is all you, Imogen. You have no idea how much it hurts to do this. Take him down. Looks like a guy in a Muppet suit for a second. Wolf suit. Thank you, Chad. A heavy clap of thunders echoes throughout the chamber. There's explosions of glass and stone. And then as the dust settles, both of these arm thunder rays to the bottom. And so is she okay? Oh, my God. Just kind of held onto that one. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. Where's my water? Inside. The blast causes it to wince heavily as. As it impacts from the blow. And I blink out. Yep. And you blink out. Yeah. Alrighty. Let's fucking go. And where you were. We're gonna go ahead and place this so we know where you were standing before. All righty. Thank you, Jer. That finishes your turn, Imogen. Ashton, you're up with Laudna on deck. Well, fuck. Can I make 40ft? Can I make it to the. To the head? 40ft? You cannot. Okay, so what I will do then is I will move 40ft in this direction and if I can be within 10ft away, my brain from Dorian. Okay, so you will be no lines. There is your 15ft from Dorian. Okay, there's no way I can be a little further back from that 15ft like on the other side. I mean, you could be here. Okay. Is that still 15ft? That's still 40ft. Yeah. Still 15ft from him. Unfortunately, your chest out of range. Move back as this is a triple line and I'd rather have a double line. Okay, so back here. Yeah. Okay. Anything to break the line up a little. Is that it? Can't do anything else. Oh, wait a minute. You can dash as an action or dodge action. Your call. I'm going to dash so that I'm on the right side, 10ft from Dorian. Just to be able. Yeah, but like a little backed up. I don't know. I know that. This way or this way towards me? Yeah, yeah, right there. As long as it's 10ft. 10ft is there? Yeah, so he can get my bonus from Dorian bonus. Okay. So he would be there. Yeah. Okay, got it. All right, that finishes your go. Ashton Laudna, you're up with Ormond deck. Do you want to be further away from the head or closer to the head? Okay. Does it matter really? I don't know. I'm okay, I guess. It's mine. Laudna's with the warm up. It's a mine. It's got a giant Laudna. Lautna. Lautna. I am going to go ahead and recast mirror image on myself. Okay. Just in case. Cause I don't trust that this is going to be over. Okay. I think it is. And then I'm going to quicken spell eldritch blast. Okay. What's the range on that? 250ft. Yeah, you're fine. Sorry. 240ft. You're fine. Defines incredibly low on sorcery points. Probably have to move to see it to get from behind the rock. Okay, I'll shift a little bit so you can move over to this side here. Yeah, that's good. What an amazing spot. Talk about a nest spell sniper. Yeah, I have that feat. Oh really? I'm also going to spend another sorcery point to twin spell this on my dope sheet. I'm going to twin spell and just lay in. You can't. Well, twin spell. You have to have multiple targets. Yeah, you can't hit the same. That's right. That was my plan when there were more. My plans keep changing. Cuz his hands move. I'm wondering. Hands. No. Correct. Yeah, you can't twin spell to the. I knew tonight was gonna go this way. I do have four of these though. I do have four of these. You do? At level 17. You do? Yeah. So 13, it's 22 to hit the head. Right. Leave not alive. So nine ups. Here we go. One's a natural 20. Nice. 17. 13. So three hits with one being a natural 20. You got it. So let's go ahead and roll damage. Okay, so for the first one. Yeah, yeah. Thirteen. Yeah. Twelve. All right. Second one. Twelve. All righty. Double damage on this one. Come on. Big high. Big go. Go high. Yeah, that's a 10. So that's 25 damage. Yes. Nice. Launching this. Ultra blasted the arc through the air. Anime swarm missing three of them. Impacting on the sides of Perdathos. Massive Kaiju head Blasts of crystal shooting out the side. What is that? Plus six? Plus six. Okay, good. If you wanted to on the. Oh, on the one that I missed actually. Yeah, I'll do it. Can I Do it. Add my inspiration to the one that I missed. Yeah. If you want to say. Because it was an eight. Yeah. That's 23. 23 hits. Okay. There it is. I'll do it. I'll do it. And then where's. Where am I down here? No. Not as good. But still pretty good. Nine damage. Nine damage. Great feel. Pretty nice. That's a good roll over. 50 damage on a cantrip. Okay. Not too bad. Not bad. All right. You're going to hide again. I assume she's got multiples up now or not. But behind a rock is better than. Yeah, I guess. Can I just get half cover? Sure. You can go ahead and get back to where you were just a little bit. But I still want to be able to see. I still want to be able to have. In case I need to. You're in between right there. You can still glance out over the side this way to see. That's where the half cover comes from. Okay then. All right. Cool. That finishes your go. All right. Finish. Lenna. Orym. You're up. Orym's going to streak towards Fearne and stick Seedling into the hilt on his back. And I'm gonna pull out this and pour it down her gullet. Okay. What's your movement? It's 30ft. 30ft. I'll get you. 30ft will get you just there. Ooh. Nella. Can you ingest things in your marsupial pouch? 7. 9. Pour it in there. Second mouth. Just like Nanamori. Just like Nanamori. What if you revealed that like last episode you can talk? See, you have a plateau. 36. 44 points. 44 points of healing. That was the big boy. And then I will use my last superiority die to use bait and switch and glide. Pull her back and stand in front of her shield up. You get an additional six to your AC for the rest. Till my turn comes around again. And I stand there. It's on top of shield. Is it? That's on top of shield. They both go together. Top of shield. So how much until your next turn? You were 17. You're 16. Is there anything. 22 with shield. So 28. 22. So 28. 28 until your turn. Wow. That's if you're near me. If you move away. Then you lose that. Then you'll lose that till his next turn. Or my till. We come around to me. If you're with me, you get a plus that your AC is that boosted. You lose your shield at the top of your turn. But two air. So then it'll Go. Yeah. Which is. That's great. All right, hand me your big boy. Yeah. I didn't put the dice back. Yeah, just slide it off. Alright. Is that finish your turn on? Yes. All right. With that it is Predathos turn. Predathos gets reaction back. Top of the round. Okay. Does not get its shriek of oblivion back, unfortunately. Let's see if it gets. Nope. It's a five. So get two limbs up. He just keeps generating lands. That's his technique. He gets more hands. He gets to just many of them. Just making it. How do we stop them? Is there some? Kill the head. Keep killing the head. Break all the crystals or something. Isn't there like a special? Special is killing the head? Yeah. You hear a warhorn in the distance. Another one. I'll stack him. Kills you behind. To be fair, Reyes, we can't run. This one's gonna go. There's nowhere to run. There's nowhere else. Oh, my God. More hands. I would move over. When I blink back, I would move to the open spot. Yeah, no worries. All right, so both of those apparate. It is going to drop two hands use. Yeah. I rolled a. On a one to three, it gets one. On a four to six gets two. It's going to use Screech of the ravaged mind. So everyone within 30ft has to make a constitution saving throw that is 30ft of the head. Everyone again except for Chetney and Imogen and Laudna. I'll roll it with you instead of. That was solidarity. Yep. Oh, you get. You get a D4 added. Oh, yes, baby. Okay. It's so good. Okay, good. Oh, yeah. All right, Dorian. Nat 20 again. Nat 20. So half a 30. 35 is. That's going to be 17 points of psychic damage. Okay. 14. 14, you take 35 points of psychic damage. Fern. 16. 16, you take 35 points of psychic damage. Okay. Oh, my God. I got a new indomitable slot leveling up temporarily. So I got a 22. 22 just succeeds. So you take 17 points of psychic damage. Ashton, not 20, not 20. You take 16 points of second damage. How did I add 22? Oh, then I rolled 20. She actually rolled a 20. If you're closer to it. You rolled 20? Yes, because I didn't know I had a roller. 20 still fails. 20 still feels. 20 still feels. Okay. All right. So that's the screech of the ravished mind. Anyone concentrating on spells? Oh, yes. At the moment I am. Oh, Hex. But I think you said I don't know. Oh, yeah. So Go ahead and roll with disadvantage. Constitution's andros. I am. For me, that is a 19 with disadvantage. Yeah. Okay. You maintain hex. Okay. All right. I also am concentrating on something with disadvantage. Correct. Does the constitution say. Yeah. 14. 14 you took fold. 35. Have that be 17. So 17 was the DC. So you drop your. My sniped. I'm sorry. Okay. It's okay. All right, so that's gonna have. Both of these hands are gonna strike out. One of them is gonna strike at Dorian, and the other is gonna go ahead and strike at. Let's see. He's probably Orymbreus. Which of you looks the roughest? I don't know, but I'm slamming my sword into my shield to get its attention. I'll say goes after you then. Yeah, I'm pointing at Orym. So attacking Orym, that's gonna be a 30 to hit. Yes, sir. All right, so the ruinous claw. Ooh. Okay. Take 32 points of slashing damage. And you, Dorian. Yeah. Nash or 19. It's a crit for the slashing. Whoa, Mercy. Did you do a disadvantage against Dorian? Oh, that's right. That's right. You are so good. You can remember that. That is not a crit. It's still a 24 to hit, though. Okay. But thank goodness, not a crit because it rolled pretty good on damage. All right. Right up in the ground. Up in the mix. 29 points of slashing damage. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. And then. Yeah, It's Kate's miracle. Devourer has flared up. All right. Finishing its go. Fern, you're up with Brayus on deck. All right. Am I within the 30ft of the head? Because I kind of wanted to do what we were talking about. We're flavoring. I wanted to try using flame blade. If you want to. Yeah, I mean, you can. You can spend half your movement to get up. Half my movement to get up. Okay, so would that be like that? Get me close. You'd be about 15ish feet away from it. Okay. Okay. I could make it. All right, so I. I kind of. For flavor. Yeah. I kind of want to cast flame blade. At what level? I was thinking 6 level. Same with confidence. Flame blade. Okay, so that's going to put it at 5d6, right? Okay, let's go. Ruidusborne. 5d6. As with the damage it would deal with the damage that it would deal plus or someone within five feet of it would I also get snake attack. Yeah. Let me check. I think who's within Five feet. Oh. On a spell, similar. But if it's a maiden, you create a similar size and shape to a scimitar. So melee spell attack. I think Rob would be weird about it, but it makes sense to me. I'm gonna allow it. You can sneak attack on this. If you can make it work out, you're using your action to attack with it once. So if you manage to hit. I think a little sneak attack damage makes sense. Especially for a Druid rogue. With a pretty heavy investment in rogue, like. Yeah, that makes sense to me. Okay, okay. Okay. So. So. So you're gonna. You cast flame blade, roll to hit. And 15ft will get you right? Yep. Right up into melee with it. If you want to describe to me how you apparate your flame blade, please. All right. So as I'm just trying to get up. If you step away, you will lose protection. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't step away. I just am letting you know, if you stand right in front of me, you'll keep it. But in order to get the sneak attack, she has to be. In order to be able to attack it, you have to get into melee. Yeah. Do what you're gonna do. Okay, I gotta do what I gotta do. I do. All right. I'm gonna take a hit. Come on. Just work that's cocked. We begin. I know. For 20. Oh, my God. Holy. Can read that dice. I didn't roll the other one. I didn't roll the other one. Okay, okay. Fuck. Okay. Don't. Anybody there? Nothing. Don't scare it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, okay. I'm liking it. Because your friends are currently engaged in melee with your target, you will get sneak attack on this. What's your sneak attack at under the current level? Features and traits. I think it's 3D6. Features and traits. Damn. Features and traits. Where are you? Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. It's okay. It's okay. Here it is. Oh, you can deal an extra 46. Okay. Okay. So it'll be an additional four on top of. Okay, okay, great. So it's 9D6. That would be 9D6 plus whatever additional damage you deal. Cause it is flame damage. So you do an additional. So double all the dice. And then I get a D8 because I'm on fire. And then a D8 because of enhanced bond. You double all those or just the. You double all the rolled dice? Yeah, all of it. Even the eights. That is epic as. All right, let's go. You dropped your baby tooth. I did. Right there. Okay, okay. Is it supposed to be in there? Yeah, yeah, it came out of her. I'm using it. I'm using it. All right. Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. All right, all right, all right, all right. We got a few sixes here. All right, we got. Okay. 12, 18, 18, 19. Druid sneak attacking on the dust battle. I love it. 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29. 29 plus 8 is 37. 37 doubled. 37 doubled. It's gonna be 74 points of fire damage on perdault. Okay, okay, okay, that's great. Okay. Okay. So as you walk up to it, your blade of rippling fire tearing out of your hand summoned there you focus the Ruidus born tether between the two of you. And as you do, you can almost sense where it's weakest. Where its gathered collar around its chest would stand. Much of the crystalline that is defended itself there has been carved away previously by your friends. But you go ahead and slice into it hard and carve upward, doing a heavy impact of fiery damage that burns up and singes the sides of the crystal. You are deft. This blade and it seems like your Druidic and your rogue sides have definitely coalesced into a terrifying entity. It's looking pretty rough. Look at that. Her head is looking rough. Yeah. Okay. Okay, okay, that's good. That's your bonus action. Your action, your movement. Because you're not using bonus action. Mr. Can attack, correct? Mr. Can attack. No, because you used your bonus action. Does he want his action to make him attack? Right. Or does he attack on his own? He attacks on his. Is he a separate initiative? I think he's a separate initiative. Right. Right after he uses. But we've been keeping him. Yeah, on my initiative. Then go for it. Go and roll for him. All right. Roll for him as a bonus action to use like his teleport stuff. That's what it was. Yeah. That doesn't hit. Okay. Yeah. But that finishes your go. Not a bad round. This is good. This is good. Death's door. Branch. Door. Pick an A. Get it going. Get it. He's not doing anything. Okay, I'm going to. Even if it costs me a hit, I will stride up to the Predathos head and swim away. All right, I'm gonna. No, you'll still be within. You will be leaving combat range of this hand if you want to take a strike. I'll take a strike. All right. He goes ahead and swipes at you from behind. 22. That's my armor class, so it does hit you. The Ruinous Claw rakes the back of your armor for 26 points of slashing damage. Okay. Ow. I will. Bonus action. Renew that staggering smite using a fifth level slot for that and take one swing. Come on, work me. 17 plus 13. 30 hits. 30 hits. I'm using a third level. Divine smite. Okay, is that 48 or 3D? That'd be 48. 48. Okay, so 46 and 68. Correct. Okay, here comes Terrible. No, no, wait. That's an 8. Yeah. That's 20. Yeah. Then another 2. 28 plus another 16 is 44, plus 7 is 51. Okay. And then the second strike. I don't really have anything else. I have one spell left that I could do Divine Smite on. I'll just do. He's looking rough. Balls to the wall. Balls to the wall. Yeah. Get him to the tank. I will use my last 5th level spell for Divine SM might if I hit. Can I choose after I hit? Yeah. Huh? You can choose after we're k. Oh, it's terrible. Oh, don't look at me. It's a 15 that's going to miss. Unfortunately. One heavy impact that splatters black and red across the front of those. The other one, it slips out of your grasp and, like, flips in the air and lands on the ground next to you. It was so cool. My God. There we are. All righty. That finishes your God. Everybody's around him. All right, end of your turn. Everyone is around him. End of your turn. Is going to go ahead and spend two legendary actions to use Maw of the red end. What's that? A bunch of you guys are in Melee Machine. Oh, no. It's gonna go ahead. It's come after you, Ashton. Melee means yeah. Okay. Yeah, go ahead. Melee means yeah. It's gonna go ahead and come at you. The mouth spins around and then comes down at you for that's a natural 20 silver barbed. Wait, is he close? He is. Yeah. He's right next to me. He's 20ft from you. Silvery Barbs. You have Silvery Barbs? With my level of. Oh, with your trogue? Can I use it? Yes. You're doing it. It's a reaction. It's a reaction. But you did get back on your turn. Okay. Did I get it back? Get it back. Silvery Bars. So it's not a crit. It's still 24, but it's not a crit. Silvery Barber damage. We should be bitches. Three PCs for silvery barbs is great. Next campaign. All your enemies. No no, no. That's awesome. All right, cool. So it's a regular hit, I believe, right? 24, I think it was. Yeah. Just. That's a hit. You can transfer that crit to somebody else, right? You can give the advantage. Marisha. Just an army. I just want to do anything anyway. 14 mages, they're just like. Nope, nope, nope. No, no, no, no. Normal, normal, normal, normal, normal. Advantage. Give it to Chetney. So that would use a second level, because my first. No. Oh, oh, oh, yeah, definitely. Really? That's a lot of dice. 8D8. Oh, my God. End of the world battle, y'all. That's gonna be 42 points of piercing damage. Halved. Halved to 21. Okay, 21. And I need you to make a strength saving throw for me. Oh, that saved it. If I was. Okay. 26. 26. Success. It chomps down on you and you watch Ashton vanish and then it's jaws. And then suddenly the jaws push apart and you see Ashton with the hammer, like pushing the jaws directions before eventually leaping out. And they slam behind you. And you catch your feet. Once more. Yes. Now you use it. Okay. You have advantage. Good to know. Thank you. Alrighty, Dorian, you're up with Chetney on deck. Oh, my God. So can I ask a question? Nope. All right, so if he engaged with him and like ate Ashton, like, where but he got spat out, where would he be spat out? In the same spot or would he spit him forward? Where his. Where his. The head would have turned towards him, technically. Okay. So I would say. Yeah, so like he essentially avoided being swallowed. Okay, so he's still in the same spot. Correct. And you're still up. I'm kinda. Yeah. Barely. Like, hilariously barely bleeding out the ears, eyes, nose. Oh, yeah, no, it's. Are you holding its jaw open? I've got. Still on the ground. You avoid it. I'm still on the ground. But like, it's caught. But like, I look like the thing, like just all cracks. There's glass starting to come out of every fucking point. I know. I'm trying to get everybody in one. I look like gravel. No, no, I want to feel everybody one company too far. Okay. Are you just trying to kill. It's okay. Yeah, kill the damage. Imogen gone off the. Imogen has vanished off the map. Okay, cool. Just kill the damn thing. Cool. Then I'll stay where I'm at. And he's looking. He's looking rough. Yeah, not like extremely rough, but looking rough. More rough than. Not as rough as I am. He's A rough. Like he's a bad thing. He's looking rough for something stronger than gods. Okay, so I'll stay where I'm at. For my bonus action. I'll just turn to Ash and say, that was great. That was so cool. And I'll do healing word again. Oh, okay. Yeah. At third level this time. Okay. With. Sorry. Oh, no, I would rather. I was going to say just do damage. 17. And I get one more because it's 6. 17.6. Oh, no, no, I'm sorry. 17 plus 3. So 20. Deal. 20 hit points. Okay, that's for everybody. That's for. That's just for. No, no, no, that's fine. Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry. Everybody's position. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, we're all weird. Cool. And then for my turn, I'll just. I'll just start hacking away again. You're within 10ft of me. You get a D4 to add your attack. So you add D4 to each attack. Okay? You have advantage on these. Don't forget. What the fuck? What the fuck? Didn't even have to roll. Initiative. Advantage on that. Not 20 on that one. All right, let's go. Not great. So eight doubled 16. You add your blade flourish to that as well. I'm do it on my second. I attack. I think. Not this one. Oh, wait, no, wait'cause it doubles in the car. Oh. Cause it would double two. Then I will do my blade flourish. I'll do the defensive flourish again. So another six. Okay, so yeah, 22 on that one. Great. And then I'll do my second attack. Let's go. And you have advantage on these two. Don't forget. Okay. That's right. And a D4. Okay. Need it. 16. 13. 29. 29 hits. Go to roll damage for that second attack. Let's do it. Dog shit. Eights. 8 points of damage. Still has 30 points of damage. 30 total barred combat damage. And some healing to your friend over here. Ashton. Holding on a little better. You want to stay put or you want to move? No, baby, I'm in the mix. I'm staying put. Let's go. All right, that finishes your go. Yep. All righty, Chetney, you're up. I'm running. I'm using my boots of speed with my 80ft of distance and I'm booking it towards Ashton. And I'm gonna hand off with my bonus action. This health potion, can I do that on a bonus action? Can I hand it off? I'll allow it. Yeah, you can run past and do that. Oh, shit. And I will keep moving and I'm gonna stay within 10ft of him, but I'm gonna come on the opposite side and flank with Brayus. Is that to flank Brayus? You will leave his ten foot radius. I'll leave the ten foot radius. Okay. Yeah. Sam, if you would be so kind as to. Or Robbie, if you could move Chetney. And I'm on that axis there. Okay, thank you. I'm gonna. I'm gonna take two swipes with turmoil. God damn it. How are you? It's a 29 to hit on the first that hits and a 18, 28 to hit on the second. All right, you know what? Actually it's gonna go ahead and reaction to convince glass to add 20 more temporary hit points. I keep forgetting the psychic damage. That's on me. So you take. You take nine points of psychic damage. Nine points plus six. 18. Oh, I don't get the D4. It's 19 points of damage with a D8 of thunder five. So 10 points of thunder damage. 29 points of damage then second one is. Oh, that's great. 9, 15 plus 6 is. I know. 21 points of damage. All right, with 5, another 10 points of thunder damage. 31. Great. That's almost 60 points of damage in one round. Hell yeah. That's it. And I stay there. All right, that finishes your goal. The 20 kicks in. Let's go ahead and roll. Oh, God. More hands. Alrighty, that's gonna be three. So this one, it's going to go ahead and. Yeah, it's gonna go ahead and move this hand and over. Oh, God. Oh, an old man smooshed him. This is a big map, Matt. Would you like some help? Those arms are magnetic. Is there metal hiding underneath all the charts? There are magnets hiding within there to keep them. Magnets within. There's magnets everywhere. You know this now. All righty, Imogen, you pop into place. Where? Within 10ft of my last position. Alrighty. You want to go this way? This way where? You want to. I will move. Come on, witch. Come on, let's go here. All right. Bad witch. Are you a good witch or a bad? Or a bad. She's a bad. Okay, how far 30ft can that get to the head? My little blade, is that 30ft away from the head? Let's find out. 30ft? It cannot. Okay. It can get almost that way. Well, I don't know if I want to move that for my bonus action if I. I can't. Let's hold that for now. Okay. You Want to hold that? Fifth level transmuted lightning bolt. Come on, baby. Just going down my things. Okay. So it is a five foot arc. Oh, shit. Can you aim up though? Could I? If you want to aim up. I see there's a chance you missed the head. So I'll say either you can choose to hit Dorian or Fearne with it and definitely hit the head and the arm or you can roll to see if you possibly miss the head but still hit the arm. Do it. No. Or see if you can find a better angle by moving. I'm gonna get a better angle because the head is important. Yeah, the head is more important. So I'm gonna shimmy to here. Okay. No, I'm gonna shimmy. I forgot that I regenerated rate at hit point every round because of Seedling. I'm going to give myself two hit points. So I'm going to go. I'm going to say I blink to here. Okay. Because that's 10ft from where I had been. Sure. And then I'll move 30ft, which can I assume is here. You may. Yeah. You will take out. You'll take an opportunity attack if you move that far. But I'm 30, so you're moving 30. Okay. Yeah. So you're just barely than 30ft there. But I just want to be somewhere where I can hit the head with that hitting. I'll allow that. All right. Thank you. Dexterity save and throw. That's gonna be a 24 that succeeds. Okay. I assume this is lightning bolt as you said, right? Transmuted. Yeah. Transmuted. Yeah. Okay, cool. Yeah. So it's a success. So it does full damage. Okay. So 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Transmutation. 9, 10. Cause that's fifth level thunder is nasty in this fight. 10, 16, 24, 28. 30 points doubled. No, no, no. It's not double because he saved. So it's just 30. But it shows 30 points of thunder damage. Strikes through. Blast it. Crystals go exploding. You see the eyes now are glowing more furious as it's breaking off. And more chunks of damage are there. There's panic and fury in its face as part of its head crests are cracking and falling off. Head crests. Way to go, Dark Phoenix. Okay, okay. Okay. Does that finish your turn? No. Okay. I'm just checking in. It's the ethereal plane that makes her crazy. I am going to like this is gonna work. That's dumb Fairy fire. Okay, okay. You know what I'm gonna do? What you gonna do? All right. I'm gonna use a sorcery point. Yeah, yeah, another one. And I'm gonna use Shocking Grasp it at a distance. Oh, I'm gonna use another sorcery point to transmute that into Thunder Damage as well. Let's go. So I'm gonna try to hit the Shocking Grasp. Throw an attack, girl. Come on. Let's go. Shock him in a gooch. Come on. Whoa, whoa, whoa. 20. 20 is gonna miss. Fucking kill. That was a good try. That was a good try. All right, all right, all right, all right. And then I'm gonna see if I'd like. Yes, I blinked. I rolled a 12. Fucking blink, man. All right, go ahead and put this in place of your piece there. That was nuts. Shit. That was nuts. All right. Finish his emissions. Go. Sorry, that wasn't as good as. It's okay. Break it. Yeah, fuck it all. There I am. I'm going to. It up to the tempo. Yeah, I'm just gonna take just. I'm gonna find the biggest crack I can, and I'm just gonna. Just start wailing with the hammer again. Go for it. I have advantage on this first hit anyway. Right. So you're not doing reckless. Probably a bad idea to do reckless. Sure, go for it. So said probably a better idea. So you're doing it. No, I said I get advantage on my first. Yeah. Because of silver rebar, which doesn't matter because that's a Nat20. Anyway. Silver Reaper. No, I can't go 1, 2. Where are the rest of my D6s? I actually. Oh, here they are. Oh, God. Come on. 1, 2, 3, 4. I get extra D. I've gone up the number of D. So I. Okay, so two. I actually. I remember a 1D6 really quick. Yes, you may. Thank you. I'm also going to burn a chaos burst into this. Okay, so roll the first two T6 and double that. It's a bad idea. So I'm going to do it. The Ashton Graymore story. Okay, so 2D6. This is the first is the people told me not to go this. That's nine points. So 18. And add that. And now the rage damage. 6, 10, 14. 14. So that'd be 32. 32. And now I'm going to do. Where's my D8? Let's do some. Come on, big money. I'll take cold, whatever. Cold damage. Okay. And then seven points of cold damage. So 39 points of damage in that strike. And then add the standard number for that, which is 15 points on top of that. Okay, so 54 points of damage. Damn. Ooh, Heavy crit crack. Oh, blast of energy. Multicolored elemental impact. Just scatter across its broken crystal. A massive chunk of its neck rough. And its open exterior armor is shattered and exposed. And underneath, you can see the now dark, bleeding ruination that is around the sides of its head from where you've all been just blasting away at it. So I forgot. But now I remember. I hit a crit, which means everyone gets advantage until the end of my next turn. That's right. So here we go with advantage. What is that ability? That's the defeat, right? Yeah. All attack rolls against that creature are made with advantage until the start of your next turn. That's so good. It's dirty. It's dirty. Dirty. No, not a birdie. But it hits. 17. 27. 31 to hit. 31 to hit. All right, yeah, we're getting to the point. And I'll just burn another chaos Burst into this point. How many do you have left now? Now I have one left. Okay, so we're gonna do. That was. That's six. No, no, it's upside down. Nine points of ash of damage. All righty. And 23 points of bludgeoning damage. All right, great. Cool. All righty. Two heavy swings into it. Tired and broken. Still, do I bother standing resolute? Do you think this is another round or no? Do you think we're going to get to one more round? I mean, who knows? We don't know anything. I don't think. It might get. Question in a second. Fuck it then. I'm using my bonus action to burn my Shard of Komort. I am turning entirely into crystal. My body just starts to go and I am a diamond. For how long? For one round. Okay. I don't know what that means. That's great. That'll make you. Are you invulnerable for a round? Yeah, I'm entirely invulnerable to the end of my next round. Are you now technically a construct? I don't know. I do not think so. I'm also going to move over here to cover as many people with my 1D4 as humanly possible. Okay, so that would be. There would be. That would get Breus, Fearne and Dorian perfect. Everyone gets a D4. All right, that finishes your go. Ashton attacks and saves. Great. And everyone's got advantage. Oh, my God. A construct so greasy at the end of your turn. Oh, he caught it. He caught it. No, I didn't. Where did. Oh, you did it somewhere. Oh, here it is. I thought you Were really dexterous. But you aren't sometimes. He's about to hurt us. It really looked to me like you caught it. This path forward us up. Yeah, no, he's gonna. Okay. You can't do anything. He's stumped. Look at him. Everybody is around him. Look at him. Apologies for that. He's like, oh, no. I can only hit them if they're far away. It's gonna attack Dorian. He's the only one that's in range. All right, that's gonna be 25 to hit. 26. Sorry. Yeah. This is the long hand. It's slamming over in that direction. That's going to be 31 points of slashing damage against you as it just claws you and slams you into the ground. You pull away as it gashes across your back. Feel your shoulders warm from the blood as being stiff. You fuel with disadvantage. That's true. Oh, it's even higher. Yeah, we're good. That's good reminder, though. All right, so finishing that. Go. Laudania, you're up with Orym on deck. So we all have advantage now. That changes on attacks against it because now you don't have to take it. No. I'm at a funny point where my eldritch blast theoretically can do more damage than like, my eighth level spells. Are you bragging because of this? Just a little bit. Let's go. Good humble brag. Get it? Ooh, you know what? Actually at the end of gave him too much time to think. Marcia. Yeah, well, I did it. What? You can't let him think you're having drag at the end of. At the end of Ashton's turn. Because I do have one more thing Ashton do. It's going to telekinetic vacuum you laudna. Go make a strength saving throw. What? Oh, shit. Wait, why? Because I realized I had a legendary action left here that I could use at the end of that turn. Why blink? What if. What if I pop out a titty? I've already seen it. Strength saving throw. Okay, I'm gonna use my bow die. My bow die. Didn't fail me last time. Not complaining. But what if I do this twice? What if I do this twice? Nutshell 20 good, though. It was actually really close. But then you realize my strength is minus two saving throw. So 13. That's a failure, unfortunately. Oh, no. You get plucked up and pulled over into melee with after you. It's okay. Kill him. I don't want. Now you can take your turn. That's fine. That's fine. I am going to. Is Now a good time to talk. I have my painting as like a breastplate right now. Breastplate with a long name. Yeah. I'm going to teleport. I'm going to Shadow Walker as my bonus action. Teleport? There isn't a shadow for you to step into that close to its glowing mass you need a shadow to step into. Is his mouth open? His mouth is currently closed and the inside of his throat is glowing as well. I've been describing it a few times that way. That was a good question. That's a good call. But the limitations of this is you have to find a shadow to step into and he pulled you right out into the open. Legit intention. So nothing 30ft. No, not large enough to step into. Or dim light. What's it say for this ability specifically? It says dim light. Let me. This is new. This is a new thing. I apologize. Oh, no. When I'm in dim light or darkness, as a bonus action, I can magically teleport to, right? Yeah. So you'd have to get behind something with some sort of a shadow to cast. Because this close to its radius, it's going to be a glowing natural light. Okay then, new plan. It's like his head is like the source of the light in this chamber. Aside from the crystals around there. My hip. New plan. Nothing like pulling a player towards the target. What's his. What do I have to. I don't want to fuck anybody. See what she said. And good for her. Good one, Prius. What's his reach? It's right up on him. I don't want to leave his melee range for the head. Five feet. Oh, that's it. Five feet. It's a bite, so it's not massive. Just imagine if he has like an itch so annoying you can reach him without him. That's true. Yeah, yeah. Both of them are like. I'm going to quicken spell. Okay. Directly behind me. Five feet. Just so I can. Five feet. Darkness. Okay, okay. Damn it. Well done. Wait though. Wait, wait. Cause it's a bonus action when you quicken it. And then is it a bonus action to step into the. It is a bonus action to teleport. You're right. What's it called? Shadow Step. You're right. You can still do it, but it'll be your action. And bonus action. What do you want to do? That's a really smart move. That is a really defensively to get out of there. But also that's your turn. So it's up to you. Okay. No, I'm not gonna do that. No. No. New plan. No new plan. But I won't do that. He still has like a legendary save too, doesn't he? I'm pretty sure he does. I'm gonna just shift. I'm going to cast because if I step back five feet, then I still get my range. You do, but he will get an opportunity. But you said he's a five foot. Five foot, meaning you're up against him. If you step five feet away from him to get out of his melee, you're out of his melee range and he hasn't used it. So the longer range is you actually have a little more wiggle room. It's the short ranges that are hard to pull away from. Matt, is his head made of organic material or is it all like crystal based? Like his face and his head crests and stuff? It's both. It's totally vegan. Blizzard, soon you will be gone. Oh, yeah. I'm sorry. You just. My boyfriend's. Open up your bursts. God ruins so much shit. I'm sorry. Okay. I started out here. I. I'm gonna, I'm gonna risk it. I'm gonna risk it because I still have mirror image. So yeah, I'm going to move away. Okay, go ahead and move yourself away. Risk it for the biscuit opportunity attack against you as you pull back. That's gonna be a 24 to hit. That hits mirror image. No, it doesn't. Roll a five. All I have to do is roll over that. All right, so that's maw the red end. So that's going to be 8D8. Damn. I theoretically should have like all the other. We made this. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Do I have advantage advantage? Count on this on mirror image to roll the. No, it doesn't. 30 points of piercing damage on you. I need you to make a strength saving throw. Oh, no. She gonna be swallowed. It counts on this on the saving throw. Yeah, it does. And you get a dp. I did a risky move because I should have. You get an advantage on saving throws for Ashton's power move. Ashton is attacks against Cards. Just attacks. No, no, no. Just attack D4. She's not unfortunate. Did you roll to hit her with this thing? I did. You did. Can I? Jesus. Does this work? Can I use my reaction to burn my last curse? Yeah. Which is blood Curse of the eyeless. Yeah. Which within 30ft I can use my reaction roll to 1d10 to subtract the result from the creature's attack. Roll. I can choose to use this feature after the DM rolls. You may 1d10. So it's a 24. Okay. Gotta roll pretty high. You still have shield. Okay, that's a 10. Oh, that reduces it to a 14. My AP is 15. Never used it. I don't know why I haven't used it. It's a great blood curse, but I guess if there was a time to use it, this is it. Because he was about to swallow Laudna. So wait, does that mean that the damage also doesn't happen? Damage also does not happen. Oh, wait, So I get 30 hit points back. Right. As you go to run away, it opens its jaws and its neck lunges towards it. You see it shifting and you go ahead and like, oh, my God, conjure what flash of hemocraft you came within and pull back on it. Its eyes flare red and it balks before it can slam its jaws shut. Right. As Laudna leaves the range, the teeth slam onto nothing as you continue to run off the son of a blade. Nosebleeds, no bleeds. Thank you, Chad. Well done. What you got? All right, now I am going to. Okay. Jesus, what have I done? Nothing, Nothing. I've just got sucked into his mouth. 30 minutes later. Oh, Lord have mercy. All right, what you got, Laudna? Now your turn. Yep. Eldritch blast. Now I'm gonna twin spell it. Yes. So this is gonna be eight. Eldritch blade. With advantage. With advantage. Get it? Queen. So. So let's start with the head attacks. Familia attacks, right? Really? What I see here, let me double check. I'll double check. I heard attacks. I heard two. I'm just making sure. Yeah, first one is going to be a 23. Hold on, we're checking rolls on that real quick attack rolls against the creature. Yeah, that's 23 hits. 23. Could I amplify it? Yeah, natural 20, baby. Yes. This is this against the head? Yes. Natural 19. Do we have any type of range there? This is all against the head. Oh, hold on a second. Hold on. The natural 20. Hold on, hold on a second. What game? Hold on. Come on. Breath, breathe. So Elder Splash technically cannot be twin spelled once it. Because it has to have a single target. Right. Once it has two blasts, it can't be twin spelled into multiple. Otherwise you're just doing eight across the way. So just double check. You didn't twin it. And you just did. You didn't twin it, but you just did those four, so that was fine. And two of them were natural twins. Two of them were natural twenties, which is crazy. So. Yeah, so. And all four hit. All four hit against the main head with two of the main crits. Let's go. Come on. Come on, you guys. You guys are doing returning this pretty well. Okay, let's do the two crits together because why not? Are you serious? Double nines. They're double nines. So that's going to be 18 plus 18. Yeah. 36 plus 5 and 5. Right. So there's a 46 damage. So 46 damage for the two crits. For the others that's a 10. So another 15. All right. This is insane. This is making up for every shitty roll we've ever had. And a four, so that's nine. What was that total? 70 points of damage and an eldritch blast cantrip with a fucking tantrum. Yeah. What a save chat. That's heavy. Oh, so just describe to me how you barely dodge being swallowed by this entity and spin around. How do the eldritch blasts look as you lob them? These are just getting fucking meaner. They're getting meaner and meaner. It's almost like me because I want to use my disintegrate so bad, so it's like essences of his disintegrate ray as I'm just rapid firing them. Each impact the head's reeling back. That's awesome. And now where am I? Am I in shadow now? I'm not, am I? No, you are not. Tits. What should I do for my bonus action Orymura? Things kind of changed within me. Something is, is not the same. I'll throw a whole bow. I think that's it. I'm not gonna quicken this bow. I'm gonna hold on to my points because I'm not in a great place with it right now. I should have hexed this. This fucker. Cause I don't have anything. You know what? Sure. I'll throw a bonus action hex into it. I should have done that first. Can I say we did that. Did that first. No, that's fine. All right, so you're gonna. You got the one. Give me from me. Yeah, that's fair. All righty. Dual hexed that. Finish your turn? Yeah. Warm your up. With its focus on Laudna. As she is fucking it up, Orym spits blood and then starts to streak on an arc around. I'm going to keep my distance though 15ft. And as he's running, he's slashing the wind. And I'm using Seedling's ability to attack from 15ft back. Okay, that's a bad roll. That is 22, which just misses. Right? 22 just hits. Just hits. Okay. Come on, baby. Come on, baby. Still hexed. So that is 22 for the first slash. Double 18s on the 20s. All right, so that is 6, 17 on the second slash. And on the final, as he's running, running, running 17 plus lots. So final. That is seven plus 18. And I will end, if I can, even further around so I'm not in a line with Laudna for a Kaiju laser. You got it. That's about as far as you there. Yeah. Okay. All right, that finishes your turn. Danzo, finishing your go. It is now picked Datho's turn. Furious herding. What? It's master of Kaiju form. Looking tough. Let's see if it gets that back. Yes. All right. So it gets back. It's brutal oblivion. The head. Oh. Oh, no. Down below. No can move that rock out of the way for me, if you don't mind. Can't do it. Is that a teleportation move? No, it's not. It's a burrowing move. All bunched and clumped or just got out of the way. Oh, my God. You got him. Oh, my. You guys said where you were. I was like, okay, that's a four. That's too high. Don't worry. He sucks that a mile away. Laudna's climb merges there. More armor cooks. Come look at this, Matt and say if it would get Laudna to. I don't. No, I mean, it depends on where the line is. He could hit Dorian and Laudna or he could get all five of you. Amazing. Because it can emerge from anywhere in its base in any direction, just like you. You guys can do. It's a five foot line. So we can get all five. Yeah, we're all perfectly. I was like, okay, lined up. All right. So I need. Oh, boy. I need Dorian. You are invulnerable. Invulnerable to all forms of damage. Yes. Okay. You don't have to worry about it. I need Fearne, Brayus, Laudna and Dorian to make a Dixon, Brus, Fern and Dorian. I think within 10. Actually, they're all within 10ft of me. You roll a one. Call it. Everyone gets a D4. Everyone gets a D4 except for me. Right? Except you. This is another magical spell effect and we all get D4. Yep. Awesome. Except for Laudna. Technically, I'd say yes. What kind of save? Oh, and baby check. This is a deck. I'm out of the way. Yeah, whoever's not here. Actually you don't get one either. I'm just letting. I'm just pointing out the damage. Roll on this. No, no cap on this. So it's 5D12. Roll 10, 11, 9, 4 and 9. Oh my God. So how many? This is deck. Fucks a ton. Did he say it's tricky? 5d12. All right, so starting over here. Laudna. 30ish. Natural one. Natural one. Oh no, no, no. No reaction. Halfling. Bountiful luck. Reroll. Really? Yes. Within helicopter 30ft. Yeah, you got it. Let's go. I said call out your ones. Call out your ones. I didn't hear it. That's okay. Heart rate in the air. 12. All right. You take 73 points of necrotic damage. What? Wait, wait, wait. If it's a beam and it's a straight line. Line. And Ashton is an invulnerable diamond, does he serve as a block for the rest of us? To be fair, you don't want me to follow that rule. He is a prison right now. He just becomes a death disco. Just look out. 73. 73 points on a crowded camp. Are you still up? No way. No way. Yeah. Wow. Oh, you haven't taken any damage this whole time. I'm taking damage, but now it's bad. You also had really good. Now it's not good, but I am dexterity saving throw. I rolled a 17 plus 10 plus 1. 28. Okay, so you take 36 points of necrotic damage. No. Good night, baby. No, I'm down. Okay. Breus. 18. 18. Take 73 points of necrotic damage. I'm going to meet my maker. No. Are you down? You're down. Everybody's going down. 22. That just succeeds. You take 36 points of necrotic damage. Well, can I evade? Oh, that's true. Well that is a success. So you take nothing, you take no damage. I take no damage. But I did use a reaction earlier for. For. For Silver Barb. Hold on, that was a while ago. Hold on, I'm going to check. I'm going to check. I think evasion died. I think it might just happen. I'm going to double check. It's been a minute. Hold on just a second. Dodge is the one that's reaction. You have to have a reaction. Evasion is just. Yeah, no, it just happens. So you take no damage. Oh my God. 5. Those levels of row. Don't feel so silly now. They don't feel so silly. So silly now. They do not. Brayus, both of Your healers are cooked. Tumbled to the ground. That far hand is going to go ahead and strike at you and the attack. Natural 18. That's a crit. No, no. Silvery bitch. That's me. Silver head bitch. My hand. Silvery barbs it. You don't have to do that. Wait, what is. It's a crit. So wait, against him? Yeah. And it would double this 73. No, no. This is a new thing. It's not gonna be as bad. Where is it? Those have been only like 20ish. But it was a crit. Your reaction. So he's gonna take like 40 damage at least. I know. It's the thing. It's. Yeah, but I give that like. I'll hold it. It's Chad's looking. Okay. It just could be coming more. I have my whole life you've been helping all of us. Setting up franchises everywhere, right, son? Oh, no. It just might come more in handy later. It's hard to say. All right, so that's going to be on the dice. 24 double to 48 plus 6. So that's going to be 54. 52. 52 points of slashing damage on you. Half. 26. 26. Go ahead and roll a constitution saving card for me, please. Constitution? Yeah. I'm advantage on this. Do you? Do I not in my hybrid form on con. You're right there. Patrol 19. For. For. Plus 5. 24. 24. Okay. Yeah. So you maintain concentration. Okay. It's gonna attack you again. That's gonna be another natural 18. I'm not even joking. Literally two in a row. I love it. He is trying to knock me to get her. I think maybe. Cause if he breaks his concentration then I lose blink. Should I. Silvery barbs. This one then? Silvery barbs. What's the range on subway barbs? 60ft. 60ft. How is it 60ft as well? It doesn't make sense. It's so busted. Let's see. You are. You're just barely in 60ft. Okay. So. So powerful. Yeah. Also I'm burning. Knock right off. 20. Did you get a 20? God damn it. Really? Really? I'm gonna have to get up for this. Wow. What is it? You kept me alive. Probably. There is balance here. Yep. Wait, what was it again? Three crits in a row. Yeah. 18. 18 and 20. Still very high. But that's insane. Still against Chet, right? Yeah. You get advantage on whatever this is. Next. Saving throw, Thrower attack. Oh really? Is it attack or saving throw you give to? Yeah. A level one reaction spell needs all the bonuses and this Is coming from the head or from the crazy Level one spell Insane. Is this coming from the head or the hand? It's from the hand. Oh, and that's going to be next attack row ability check or saving throw. Great, There we go. I don't have the brand of castigation. It's going to be 52. 58 points of slashing damage. Oh, dear Lord. So halved. 28. 52 halved. 58 halved. 58 halved. So it'd be 58. Sorry, sorry. 58 halved would be 29. 29. 29 points of damage. Okay, so another constitution saving throw. You have advantage on it. Okay, but it's going to be a 14. DC. Okay. 5. 19. Okay. God damn. All right. All right, that's going to finish Prothos turn. Fearne, you're up. Okay. All right. Yeah. It's amazing how quickly that just shifted. Yeah. Okay, well, I'm going to move out of this line a little bit and I'm gonna scorching Ray at fourth level again. That's what I got. I mean, I can get up and do some melee, but I don't. I can't get up. Oh, by the way, did you roll concentration check to maintain your flame blade? She didn't take any damage. Take any damage. I'm sorry, you didn't. Never mind. You're good. You're good. How long is that advantage until my turn? So you have advantage on. All right, I'll take some scorch and raise. Fourth level. Scorch and raise. Okay, advantage on all of them. Advantage and a D4 on all attacks. My favorite spot. Oh, really? Cause you're right next to. Okay, okay, so that's five hits. Okay, and what level? Fourth. Fourth level would be five. Okay, so. Oh, wow. Oh, shit. All right, so two. So 19 plus 12. That hits. That's one hit. Okay, great. Second one hits. Right. Third one, add a D4. So. Okay, so 13. 25. That hits. Great. Three hits that I don't think hits. I don't think. Well, that's nine plus 21. 21 chest missiles. No, sorry, sorry on that already. Yeah, yeah, that was fine. Okay, three hits in the last one. 25 we have hit six. Four hits. So roll eight. Yeah. 8D6. Okay, 8D6. Oh, man. All right. Okay. You took the tread and it go to 26. Did you add that one and I didn't roll that one. Oh, okay. 26 and then 2. 2. 8 plus 8. 26 plus 8. Okay, so 34. 34 points of fire. Well, it's all fire now. Yes. Yeah. That all burns across. Impacting, singeing around its outside. And is Mr. Gonna go as well? Yes, Mr. Is going to take his flaming shit. Does he get advantage as well? It's all attacks. Okay, great. He is not. That is. Okay. Yeah, that hits. Okay. Okay. Oh, my God. If Mr. Gets it, you're like three. Nine points of damage. Okay. Nine points of damage. All right. Interesting. Does that finish your turn, Fearne? Yeah, I'm gonna move out of the line that we have here. Where are you moving? I'm gonna kind of move over to where? This way, but near Orym. So just as far 35ft forward, but kind of more a little bit this way. This way. This way? Yeah. That way. Yeah. Okay. If you move too far than 30ft, you will get out of combat range of this hand. Oh. So you might want to stay a little bit closer than that. Okay, that's fine. That's about as close as you can get without leaving its melee. All right. All right, that's my turn. Okay. All right. Stressful finishing Yorgo. End of your turn. It's going to go ahead and activate a limb as a legendary action. It's going to attack Chetney again. Oh, it's going to be a 28 to hit. Yes, indeed. All right, you take. Oh, it's triple H. It's 30 points of slashing damage reduced to 15. Okay. Making it a constitution. Saving that for me just a single roll? No, you just have to roll a 10 or higher total. It's a 7. No, you could replace fucking hell yourself with the mystical one right there. Replace yourself a little bit closer to the head. I'm sorry, Imogen. I'm sorry. I have trouble resisting things older than me. All righty. With that. You did great, Chad. Braya. Since your turn, you took a lot of hits. I roll a death saving throw. You do? I got a seven. That is one failed death saving throw for Brayus. One step closer to the hells to where you. You are bound. I'm coming, I'm coming. I'm going home. If there is a hell to return, I'm going home. All right. Finishing brace to turn any return skins. Another legendary action. The head is going to go ahead and come after you with a maw of the red end. Listen, I'm part of you. You're part of me. You don't want to do this. 25. Hit me. We're bound to each other. Yeah. Still got one in the chamber. Silvery boobs, take 32 points of piercing damage and I need you to make a strength saving throw. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Stab. She had 31. You watch as Imogen is swallowing by the entity just as the wallowed leaves her eyes. Please hand me her mini. She is unconscious and inside she called the entity into her. Now the entity has brought her into it. That brings us to the end of the combat round. I think now's a good time to take a break. So we're going to return here. It's been three hours running. Thank you for your patience, but that's what boss battles are about at the end of the campaign. We'll be back here in a few minutes to pick up on the top of the next round, which is looking a little nerve wracking. See you in a little bit.

Okay, back at the show and welcome back. No. So, top of the combat round. Dorian, I need you to make a death save for me. Not 20. Haven't rolled y'all night. 20. Dorian, dice don't fail me now. Oh, does he get advantage because of foresight? Unfortunately, no. It's 18. 18. That's one success. Well, it's just you could have been success. Chetney, it's your turn. Are you expecting me to do something? Yep, that's right. So you just watched Imogen get swallowed up within Predathos? As long as I got swallowed up, I got killed and swallowed. And if I leave that hand, it'll provoke an attack of opportunity, right? It will. About 15 foot range. F that noise. All right, last one. I'm going to use Turmoil the scythe to fling a shatter at the head of Predathos. Okay, I'm not going anywhere. Save is con 16 natural 19. Yeah. For a total of 32. Oh, wait, wait, that's it. It was an attack against the head. It's a spell against it. Yeah. Okay, so it doesn't get advantage. Well, if it's got an attack on the head, it's saving. Okay, never mind. Good looking up. So it saves a half damage, but because this is thunder. It's full damage. Whatever you roll it. Chase 19. 38. 38 points of thunder damage to the head. It detonates and you watch its mouth opens and there to the back you see the unconscious Imogen sliding down the glowing gullet before its mouth reshuts. Good Lord. I think that is my holy, my Matthew, Can I sing to you, baby? I appreciate that. Is that your turn? What do you want to move? Bonus action. Anything. You can still move 15ft if you like. But he would get an attack opportunity. You could get up to 15ft while still being in the combat range. Not going to. I'm talking for two. I'm going to use only bonus action mix D step that I have left and I'm going to slide behind the head. Okay, so you're going to move 15ft and then go there and you're going to slide behind it that direction. Like over here. Do you want. Well, he only has 40ft of movement, so it was 15 to get to the edge there. Yeah. And then. And then do 40ft around there. Yeah. So you can go there. Do you want to be more than five feet away from the head when you do it? So you're not within melee of the head? No, I want to. I want to be in melee with the head. All right, There you go. You know what? I saw you run. That's a good point. I'll be. Just stay out of melee. Yeah. All right. I know it has that 30 foot burst thing, but it can't. At least it can't maul you. Yep. Doesn't. That's about right. Snapping turtle. Yep. Okay, Totally. All right. Finishing Chetney's Go. Thanks. That is the top of the 20. Top of that 20. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. This hand. Uh oh. Is going to no healing go here. What? The head. He's moving away from each. Oh no. He's going to line up there to roast us. Yep. Actually, no, no, sorry. The head's going to move there. Oh no. Oh, much worse, much worse, much worse. But you guys, he can't. He's just moving pieces. You can move out of the line. Can. Can we can br and I move out of the way? Think I can. Me either. For a magnet. There was a thing that was in the way here. Let's try again. Do you want to be like here? No. Yeah. What if you just put it behind the DM screen? I'll just put this here. That'll work great. Sweet. So it's magnet switches. There are some in There I can use. What was this for? That was when you were concentrating on blink, but it went away. Thanks for bringing up old paintbrush, Imogen. He only made me roll for it. Is this your failure on the battle map? So at the top of the turn, because you were inside its mouth, you begin to take digestive force damage. Oh, cool. So you immediately fail a death save. Then at the end of your turn, I need you to roll another death saving throw. So if I roll a one. A one? You don't and you're dead. Just don't roll one. Hey. Hey. There has been a good run. It's further than 30ft away from me and I. What are you. If I roll a one, I'm dead. Dead. Did you get a D4? But if you roll a 20, she bounces back. There's literally only one thing you can't. Here we go. What is that? Die. Oh, thank God, it's 11. Okay. Okay. So that is one successful save. Oh my gosh. What is that? Die. It's your turn. That is. It's an awesome die. Are you taking a chance on a rogue die? No, I've been using it the whole game. I love this die. I don't think it's worth it. Wait, who's up? Let's see. It's worth it. He heard his name. But what are you going to do? Are you going to. You got to do that thing. I don't know. Do you want me to do it? I love not being part of the. You can tell. It's your choice if you want to try this. It's a Hail Mary, but I will feel so immensely guilty if I kill you. You. It's been voiced. It's been voiced. It's been acknowledged. Shit happens. Okay. It's pretty. Ashton. All right, all right. You're being digested. Are you two other people are down or are you no longer diamond? I'm at the end of this turn. I have a diamond. Okay. Which is a damn fucking shame. Cuz if it had just been slightly reversed issues, this wouldn't be a problem. We played Rollies, technically, all at 19. That's how it rolls. So what are we doing, Ashton? Absolutely sad. Panicking. I feel like I'm gonna throw up. Going to. I'm going to walk over. I'm gonna open that fucking mouth of that thing going in. Okay. Yeah, do it. So you go over towards the mouth. So you're gonna try and like shove your. What are you trying to do? Are you trying to smack it in the head or Are you trying to get in? Climb on it. What are you trying to do? I'm trying to. I'm actually tempted. Let's go, Punk Rock. I'm trying to use my fucking hammer to get in and just shove the damn thing open. And if I have to, I will lock it open. Okay. So this would be more or less a contested shove attack to try and push into it. I'll say so. Go ahead. And then I'll have enough. I'll have one more thing I can do if I want to. You have two attacks. Don't allow that. So you take one. So your first attack is gonna be kind of a shove to try and open it. Okay. So contested strength. Okay. And I have advantage on that. You do. And I have a D4. You rolled a 20? No. Oh, but I'm making sure that I rolled a 20. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. That was a natural 18 plus 6. But that doesn't matter with a 20. So as it. Like fucking diamond hammer, as the head emerges from the ground, its jaw opens ever so slightly and you rush up. Using that moment, you leap towards the mouth, jam the hammer in, click it, and its mouth kind of holds open. And so you have. That's your one attack, and you're now in the jaw. What do you want to do? I want to ask one more thing. Sure. Privately, I just want to whisper. I want to whisper something. Okay. A reverse whisper. Hell, yeah. Guys, there's merch available somewhere to commemorate this fight by going to shop.critrole.com and scouring it for. Yeah, just go check out the website. Say. Huh. Check it out. That's coloration in frame, over. In theory, though, for your turn. It's not. Oh, it's not already? Okay, so wait, I got to see it. I got to see this. Wow. It comes for us all. Wow. Devious. Sylvie, tell me exactly where it went. It was part of a comp card. It was businessman, skateboarder, leather jacket guy, and policeman. Yeah, I don't need to think. That's 2007. So you could. We could try. Yeah. You know lawyer Matt Good. You receive inspiration from gorgeous. Jesus Christ. All right, I'm going. Comes for us all. Robbie, I'm going in. You're. I'm pulling her out. That's some lucifer. Okay, so you're leaving the hammer there. I'm using it. I'm having it click. I'm going in. I'm using it to fucking pull. Okay, we'll make this another contested strength check. All right. As she's currently kind of squeezed inside of his throat. Am I held in place by a tongue? You're being held in place. It would have a tongue on the inside, but there is also the inside of his throat is like condensed on you. So he's having to pull you out of the restraints. Yep. All right. Natural 20. Come on, Ashton. Sadly, not a natural 20, but it is a 19, so that's just strength, contestant. Now to save. That's 27. 27. Natural five. So you. Are you pulling the hammer out with you? Okay, that's tough. I feel like it would make it harder to do the stupid thing I'm about to do. There's more? Well, actually, no. It doesn't change it. I don't think so. So you have a grip on her, and you pull her into the jaw with you. Can you get her out? Out? If you can get her out, you can get her out, but it'll be half the rest of your movement to try and bring her with you. So you'll get about 15ft away. So light. Cannot believe I'm going to do this. I'm going to leave the hammer and run with her. Yeah. Okay. The hammer's leaving the hammer in the. Okay. Is it immovable? Frozen in place? It is immovable. It's locked in place now. It can still like. It's not like Jim in it. It can still. No, but it's still sitting there. Okay, so you will say, how much more movement do you have? It was 10 to get there. Do you have 40ft of movement? I have 40ft of movement. So would be another 15ft to here. And you would drag an unconscious fuck. It's gonna be easier if I like, this is gonna make the. It's gonna make the shot harder, though. Okay. So with that survive, I can't tune it. So we'll find out. And Imogen is a bonus. All right. We'll see how it goes. You'd have to go the entire way around. I know. Okay. I think I'm gonna go for the heal. All right. Oh, yeah. No, I can't use a bonus. I can't use a bonus action to throw a potion in her. That's an action. No, it's an action to try and force a potion into somebody. Yeah. All right, that finishes your turn. Ashton Laudna, you're up with Orym on deck. Yeah, do it. This could go really bad. This could go really bad. I want to try and move as far as I can. Movement of 30. 30ft. So, like, wherever I can. 30ft will get you just beyond Fern. Oh, so you will get there. Oh, I've reverted, by the way. And not only I've reverted, I am fucking wrecked. There are parts of me falling off. Damn it. Oh, okay, got you out. I'm gonna summon my bonus action to use the void puppet. My screaming spirit. Okay. Is going to fuck. I would like it to be like. If I can have it in the main between the hand in the. Does it have to be within melee for its effect to work within 5ft? 5ft? It cannot get both. So you have to pick one. There's more than a. Yeah, there's a 10 foot gap between them. So you have to choose one or the other. Then the head. Okay. Yeah. So we'll say the void puppet comes out. What spirit do you summon? Send me Sumi. Sit. Oh, terrible. Fucking Predathos. Favorite puppet. It's gotta be Odon, the shadow form. For a brief. Those of you that are present and conscious, your heart skips a beat as the shadow shape of Otohan crawls out of the ground like a zombie. And you watch as it emerges, its head cracked to one side, its face melting away as she steps and drifts right up towards Predathos. What are you doing? Okay, I am using Ashton's hammer for his abilities. I want to shoot a disintegrate ray into the hammer and hopefully hit the head and this arm over here. Or any of the arms. Yes. Okay. Okay. So, yeah, channel your disintegrate, aiming for the hammer just as the head's dislodging and pulling its way back as Ashton's dragging Imogen out of the way, broken and falling off in chunks. So what is the check for the hammer? It is six plus the spell's level, which is seven or six. Six. Yeah. So it's a 12. Dc12. So you're rolling a D20 and you're adding your charisma modifier. You want a 12 or higher. If you roll less than that, it will refract back onto Ashton. Oh, my God. It's great. Do you have a lot of charisma? We didn't come here to make friends. Take your shot. Take the shot. He told me to do this. I said I wasn't going to do. Oh, my God. Freaking out. Is this it? Is this the one? Is that the one you want? She called it and she said. Oh, my God. What's your modifier? Plus five? You say you need a seven or a higher. I can't look. I can't look. Nine. Nine. That's like a little Russian Roulette. I was done. It was close. Yeah, I'm sure it was very close. That's right. Who's feeling spicy as you? By two points. 14 total. That is too close. As you pull sections of the forbidden arcana that sit within the soul anchor you wield in your ribcage, drawing the power from your innate ability. Abilities. And siphoning them from the forever trapped Delilah Briarwood, you conjure this destructive blast of energy and fire it towards the glittering prismatic hammer of glass. As it strikes, it splits off into a number of spaces, but ricochets directly in the direction of the other hand on that side. So they both have to make a saving throw. The head has disadvantage. This is a dexterity 19. 19. I'm going to roll these above the table here. And you're not doing your last legendary resistance. Well, we'll see. So natural 19 on one with disadvantage. The other is a two. That's the disadvantage one. Okay, okay, okay, okay. Burn that last legendary resistance to succeed. All right, the hand over there. Is that a one? That's a seven. That's going to be a 16. Fail. Fail. Go ahead and roll damage. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. And his resistance is gone. His resistance is gone. Oh. Oh, yes. Legendary. Yeah. It's not the head. Unless he has more legendaries. No, no. They. That's. That's the end of them. Here. Sorry, I had to look and see. 10D6. 1. Nope, nope, nope. 4, 6. Stop it. Travis. Travis. I love the risky maneuver. Ready? Oh, yeah. I love it. I love it. No pain, no gain. Dude, that would have been so harsh to have you just walk out and be like, I'm okay. Okay, okay, okay, okay. I knew the world's it. I knew what was coming. It's the hand, right? The hand is the one that failed. Okay. Is disintegrate if you don't take damage. If you save, you don't take any. Correct? Yeah. Or nothing. Arms are sweaty. I don't think it's worth it. I'm gonna keep my points. Sorry, I'm thinking a lot. Okay. 10, 20, whatever. I told you about thinking. Oh, yeah. I have to undo all my fucking bonuses now. Yeah. Here we go. 30, 40, 70, 33 plus 40 is 73. 73. Half that goes to 36 damage to the head as the arm part of it, like, breaks and turns to dust. It's still standing, but it looks very damaged. And the head also reels back. Parts of its jaw crumble away just by the connective tissue of it still holding Strong. I mean, it's all hurt, but the arm is still standing. So that's your movement and your action. Give me healing potions. Oh, and your bonus because of the spirit. So. Oh, that's everything. Oh, shit. Yeah, that's everything. Everything. Went into that slot in this turn. Orm, you're up. Okay. Went into that. It seems like I am in swatting distance of this tall hand here, right? You likely would be. Yeah. Yeah. So there is no good place here. But the worst place is where everybody is. So Orym is going to sprint his 30ft on a diagonal this way, staying near the base of that hand. Let's just get me there. 30ft will get you about there. Then I'm dropping hex. And with a bonus action, I will extend seedling out and vines shoot out across the field and grab hold of Dorian and I yank him towards me out of the line of fire of the Kaiju. Now we're all clumped up and at least he's only swattable by one thing instead of multiple things. And then with my action, I pull out, I have two tiny healing potions. So I put a regular healing potion down Dorian's gullet, bringing you awake. So you roll or I roll. It's one of these. All right, so go ahead and plug it in. I'll put it back in because this isn't mine, but I have it on my fiance sheet. So. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 plus 4, 15. You heal. 15 hit points. Woo. And press my head to Dorian's head and be like, we need you. I. I need you. Can you get up? Yeah, we need you. And that's the end of my turn. Okay. Yeah, I was off center a little bit. I was off even more. Yeah, it like caught her and it caught me and drugged me. I was more over here. Over there. Okay. Yeah, I was trying to be off its center line. Yeah, no worries. All right, finishing worms. Go. It is now Predathos turn. Actually, the end of your turn does have one legendary action left back. It's going to attempt to. Oh, this is Predathos turn. Oh, it sees you seedling over there and it's going to go ahead and try and swat you. Okay. Oh, I gained a hit point, so I should be fine. That's a Nashra 19. Okay, I thought which will hit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fuck. Now this thing ate a couple of jobs. 29 points of slashing damage to you. Orym down. Watch as Orym finishes putting the healing potion, administering it to you. Dorian. The minute he says this to you, he gets up and brings his shield up. And the first thing you see as you come back to consciousness is this hand just swat him into the ground. Dust cloud outward as the claw pulls back bits of dust and blood dripping from it. Orym does not move. Now it's Barathos. Turn. Let's see if he gets the shriek of oblivion back with the two he does not See if he gets the shriek of the ravaged mind back with a one. He does not. Okay, okay. So full. Thanks. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Take a little victory. Raise your hand. If you're unconscious, fall underneath. Very unconscious. It's going to shift over here. After that, disintegrate. Oh, this is it. Probably he's going to come for lagna. Okay, that's a natural 17 plus that's a 30 to hit. I'm sorry, 31 to hit hits mirror image. Oh, right. Yeah. Yes, I do. Yep. Oh, my God. All right. Its mouth goes for the multiple Laudna's around. The rest of you watch as it snaps down and swallows one of them. And then it seems to chew nothing as Laudna keeps running along. Good job, witch. Now I'm going to activate two of the limbs. One of them is going to come after. Actually, she's going to activate that one twice. So one's going to have to. Ashton, you're still up. No, he can die. All right, all right. I am just blocking that fucking body. I am staring it down. I'm blocking that fucking. I am rolling terrifyingly good right now. All right, so that's 3D10. Wow. Sorry. I'm gonna crit. He's got, like, special rockman abilities. 2046 points of slashing damage reduced to half. So 23 points of slashing damage and the other hand's coming after you, Fearne. Oh, I'll also say. Well, I'll wait. Finish it up. Okay. And that's me natural 18. Jesus Christ. Well, I have my. It'll be a total of 32 to hit you the justice. And that is a natural 18, which is a crit on these slashes. I can't believe that. Okay, I don't think I'll be carrying you. Anyone's got several silvery barbs, now be the time to do it. I mean, I have silver cubes, but that works on hit points. Are you about to go? Is this going? She's going to die. Can I. Can I? Yeah. It won't. I can't. Silver barbs, right? Did you go down on that? Yeah, but I Just don't want to. Really. I. I would have to burn like a fifth level spell. So I don't want to do it if she's going to be down the way. What? You can uncle dodge and take half damage. I mean, Fern is next in the initiative. Or you can't pull you guys. Or you can try and Silvery Barbs it and it might miss. If you're lucky, he might miss. He might totally miss you. It's up to you. Silvery Barbs. Yeah, you have Silvery barbs, I have silver. I'm going to roll this above here. But didn't I use the reaction? No, it came back around. Came back around. Came back around. Okay. Silvery Barb, that's going to be a 19 to hit you. Yeah. Shield she just used to react, but it's not a crit. But you're gonna go down this try. Gotta try. AC is 19. AC is 17. 17. Wow. There's no quit. So tight. That was so tight. 23 points of slashing damage to you. I'm out. I'm out. Fernando crumbles to the ground from the claw swipe knocking her to the ground. Damn. All right, that's gonna relentless rage. Relentless rage pop up. Oh. Cause I brought you to zero. Yep, I'm fine. Well, you're still at one hit point. I'm at one hit point. I am not falling the fuck down though. I got hit with melee. So he takes fire damage. Technically, yeah. Roll it takes a D8. Yeah, get that. Get that going. Five points of fire damage. It all carries. And that would be two to the main head. Okay. All right, so that finishes. Brauthos is going to roll to see if he gets. No, does not get miracle Mr. Does Mr. Not go because I'm out. Mysterious still go. Mr. Furious now especially Mr. Just goes. Grabs a big old flamin turd, pops it in his gun. Yeah, that'll work. Takes a Percy stance. He did good. He did good. He rolled a six. Okay, so 11 points of damage. Great. Sorry. 12 points of damage. 12 points of damage. Splat. Right in one of its many eyes. Okay, that finishes. Brathos turn. Fern, go ahead and roll a death saving throw for me. Okay, let's do. Let's do. Roll your tiniest D20. I feel so alive when you rolled last time. No, it's not. No, it's not. Okay, say it. I know you were right. That is wrong. It's not the one. No, it's not the one. This is the one that I wrote the one out. Oh, God. And so I'm gonna. Don't roll green ones. What was it? Okay, okay, so that's two fails, two failed death saving throws. Fern, random superstitions. Don't roll green on your saving throw. I know. Don't roll green on your saving throws. That means. It just doesn't. Okay. Shit. Shit. Fuck. Okay. All right. The one you just rolled. All right, brace. I'm roll it for mine. Those are both ones that I rolled. One's on. Why did you do that? Did you. No. It's a four. That's a failed death save brace. I would. You two, you're not touching evil. That was your second. Right? Second failure. Yep, yep, yep, yep. Okay. Okay, Dorian, it's your turn. Come on, baby. Okay, okay. Get your hands in the game. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I have to see. I have to see. Our heads are in the game. I don't think seriously here we are doing anything tactically wrong. This is serious. Oh, my God. Actually, this is. Please. Yeah. So I can get up now? Half your movement to stand, so. Half your movement to stand up. Half my movement to stand up. Correct. Look around you and you see Imogen on the ground, unconscious but pulled free. Orym on the ground, within a smashed hand. Crater in the ground, not moving. Fearne and Breus, both side of you unconscious, not moving. My hand falls. Everybody else looking like absolute shit. Yeah. You see Ashton holding on by a thread, but Fury in his bones and Laudna right next to it with two other Laudnas floating around also looking fairly hurt. What do you do? So, four down. Chetney's over in the corner with one leg hiked up in the air, just trying to lick his own. I've always wanted to try this. Now's the time. Four down. Yeah. So I think just weekly I will use my 15ft to just fly straight up from where I'm at. Your flying speed is what, 40? 40. So I'll give you. So half of that'd be 20, I'd say. I'm just kind of trying to go above everyone and straight down it's my. I've been saving it. What? What? Saving what? Yeah, yeah. Straight down. Epicenter in the middle of them seventh level massacre. Yes. Let's fucking go. Roll big. Roll big, baby. I know. Fingies crossed. It's five, right? Let's do good. Great. Seven and seven. It's not bad. Four. 14 plus six. 20. 20 plus another six. 26 plus three. Whoa. 29. Whoa. And 29 hit points. Two. I have six. Six targets I'll pick. It's everyone, right? Definitely. Everybody that's definitely six targets. Choose up to six creatures. Each target regains hit points equal to five D8. Yeah. Plus your charisma. Yeah. Which is three hits. Yeah. So it's 29. So 29 hit points to six targets. You have seven within range. Who does not get healed? Everybody who's down gets up. Right. Okay, so Fearne, Brayus, Orym. Imogen. Sure. So either Ashton, you or Laudna do not heal. Which of them does not get healed? I would argue me. No, no, no. You gotta heal yourself. I can't do any dps. We got one round. I don't have much left to heal. How much hit points? How many hit points do you have right now? Like 15. Yeah, I've got mirror image up, so I'm ever. You can heal still if I choose to. No, I'll stick with my choice. Okay. I don't want it. All right, so 29 hit points. 2. Fearne, Laudna, Breus, Imogen, Ashton, Orym. 29. Let's get those minis up. That's your movement, that's your action. You still have your bonus. And this is such a basic bard question to ask at the end of the road. And you answered this. Can two people be inspired? If I have one more inspiration, you can inspire a single target. A single target. So if Chet already. No, no, I mean, Chet already has it. Can I do it again and somebody else can be. Or. Correct. Yeah, you can. Oh, that's what I'm asking. Okay, yeah, yeah. You can have multiple people inspired at once. Then I'll give inspiration to our other bard and healer, Brayus. Whoa. All right, take a D12. Inspiration diver. But I betrayed you. Why are you treating me with kindness? For some reason, I still trust you. All right, at the end of your turn, using one legendary action to attack Imogen with the claw. Where is she? You're on the ground. So it's advantage underdorm. Is that near me? Natural three or a very close to you? 17. Wow. No. And a 25. Except truthbearer. Fabled plate of Uthor. Vendra, how close do you have to be next to them? I can't see. Am I within? You are 15ft from her. Sorry, Luther. I know such a good name. That's 26 points of slashing damage to you on the ground. Oh, my God. Are you still. You're still got six points left. Hey, 26 or 23? 26. Six tribe, three points. Okay, that's all you need. All righty, Chetney, you're up. I go over to Imogen and I start applying slick shimmer oil for a minute. Just greasing her up to apply 10 temporary hypnopods. Is this how you apply it to Imogen? How did you even get to me, Chad? Don't question it. The arm in the corner, the melee on that thing is like 30ft, right? Yeah, it's pretty far range. It's badonk, so I can't even leave its melee without invoking an attack of opportunity, right? Probably, yeah. I mean, you can move within its range with that Invoke Pokemon, but as soon as you leave it. So to get beyond 30ft, it'll take it. I actually can't cast shatter again, which means I'm stuck there. You can move within that 30ft? Yeah, I just don't think I can get within melee of the head. And what does he do to that? Is the arm 30ft from the head? The arm is somewhere between 30 and 35. It is 30 about 30ft from the head. Otherwise I can't do anything except hit the arm, which is worthless. I will try my luck at moving towards the head and staying within the melee of the arm. Okay. What's your movement? Oh, you're moving. It's 80 with the boots of speed. Yeah. So you make it right there, right on the cusp. You remain in melee range, you do not get an opportunity attack. Bonkers. That's bonkers. I'll take two swings with turmoil. He's gonna use his reaction to condensed glass and gain twice. 20 hit temporary hit points. I have advantage. Maybe we'll get lucky. That's 29 to hit. That hits the second one. I don't get crits on 19, do I? Nope, I don't think so because I'm not wearing that stupid bib. 25. 25. Does that hit? It does. Okay, first one. 10. Nah's still up. Plus 6. 18. Plus 6 is 20. Is your hammer still in his mouth? No, the hammer's just where I left it. 24 points of damage. I'm trying to get in. We'll see how it goes. Seven points of thunder. So 14. So 38 points, with 14 of that being thunder. Great. Awesome. Heavy hit in the back. You knock off temporary hit points, but you also take nine points of psychic damage. I'll take six because I heal three at the beginning of this. There you go. Those points are hurting. 10, 11, 17. Plus six is 23. 23 points of damage, plus five points of thunder for 10. 33 points. Yeah. 33 points. Ooh, nice round. Just hitting the Back of it best you can, wielding in your arm the weapon, the implement, the instrument of the one that first brought you all together. The silver symbol of Eshteross. That's right. It is carving into the back of this creature's head. With each thunderous blast in its back, more crystals spreading and flying. You don't even have a visual range on if your friends are safe or not. In the moment, as you are just giving in to the Wolven urge to destroy and just hacking at it from behind. That's all I've got. Finishes your turn, Chetney. All right. That's going to bring us to initiative count 21. Only one thing is going to move. The head is going to nail Savage Bear. Fuck. Okay. Also an Enchini's turn. God. My stomach doesn't have those back, so I can't use those. I can't use them now. You know what? Sorry. It's going to go ahead and shift there instead. Because it can't use its other special attacks, it's gonna use its other two legendary actions to go after you, Ashton. All right, man. That's gonna be a natural two. Oh, you missed one. That's a 16 total. That doesn't hit. I'm using Dreadful Misfortune. What is that? Dreadful Misfortune. I've never heard you say that. I've never said it. You said you didn't use it once before. 120 episodes in used it last fight. How many times can you use it? This is my last one because it burns a Chaos. Burns a Chaos Burst. Yeah, my last Chaos Burst. I think you rolled that. Use my Chaos Burst plus my reaction. Enemy must attack themselves for half damage. Okay. All right. So that's half damage on himself as he bites down on his own tongue. We've all been there. Just the worst. Now I'm really mad. He killed himself. How do you. That would be 41 points of damage reduced to 20. So it takes 20 points of damage to itself from biting its own tongue as it tries to snap and bite at you. Your presence alters the space and probability around it, and it ends up just carving. A big chunk of its tongue just gets severed. It hits the ground and starts writhing around. A crown dislodges. Oh, no. Well, that's going to finish its reaction. That brings us to boy. Imogen, let's go. Come on, let's go. Okay, I'm gonna get up on my hands and knees. And as I start to rise up, I look down and I look at my hand and I see the Ring that the archer gave me. It's time. Wait, the what? Oh, yeah. The Ring of Remembrance. Yes. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. So as an action, I can activate the arcane power within this band. It's an Abubakar special. If I roll, I'm gonna roll a D20. And if I roll above my current hit points, then I cast meteor swarm. Whoa. Are you serious? But if I cast below it, I'm fucking dead. Like, dead dead. I take 20D6 from and 20D6 bludgeoning against myself. Oh, my. How many hit points do you have left? How in love with you I am. I have three hit points. Okay, so you have to roll a four or higher. I have to roll a four or a higher. And if I don't, I'm dead. I gotta roll. Consider the dice equal or equal or higher. It says equal or lower than my current hit points, I die. So 4 or higher. 4 or higher. Make sure you pick this die carefully, because if it kills you, people are gonna want to buy that someday. Charity auction. 20,000 darkest. I love how dark y'all are. Honey, I can't do this. Oh, boy. Everybody put a hand on. You know what? Put a hand on image. Put a hand on image. Well, that's a weird 12. Come on, come on. You're out of. All right, so those are 40 foot radius spheres. We're all dead. Oh, wait, no. Well, no, no. She can place them where she. Where do you want to place them? This is the center of it. And it covers this radius over here. And you get to drop four of them. What, all the hands, too? I can kill all the hands? Yeah. So I'm gonna drop one here. Wide circle that gets the head in this hand. All of them can only be hit once. It's not like you can do multiple damage. Multiple ones. So all of them. This one there and there. Yeah, yeah. Oh, my God. This is a one off. This is a ninth level. Okay, meteor swarm. So roll 40d6 for me. 40d6 fire damage and 20d6 bludgeoning damage. Can I damn. Use a sorcery point? Empower that shit to transmute it. Thunder. Read the metamagic for me. Spend a sorcery point to change the damage type to one. From one to another. I can as my character of a spell I cast. Hold on. It reloaded on me. Like that makes sense to me. Basically, you're casting it through the item. I can change fire to thunder. I can't change bludgeoning, but I can change fire to thunder. Okay, hold on. A second. Let me check one thing. Holy. That's a whole ball game. When I cast a spell. Yeah. This says I immediately cast meteor swarm spell. So this ring says that I cast it. Hmm. Let me see. Ball game. Anyway. I know, but. But it's a fucking baller. I mean, there's a reason. There was the get her up with one point. That was the get her up with one point. It is technically a spell you're casting through the ring so you can transmute the fire. Yes. All right, so roll 20. So it's a little separate. Yes. Roll 20. D6 for bludgeoning. Okay. Okay. Can we get an ad read for these dice rolls? Guys, you can buy the dice that she's using for this roll. Can you at Laura's Etsy site. Have you ever been happier with that fistful of dice? I mean, wait like 12, 13, 14 for dice collection. All these years, it's been working up to this moment. Roll them all at once. That's what I'm going to do. 16. I have some, but she might want to roll. Okay, okay, okay, okay. Wait, where's the sixes? They're all one. I've never heard of 40 D6. Wait, what was. Don't say numbers. 18, 28. Keyless 38. Oh, that was just fault 38. But it was like lots of D6. 48, 58, 60, 65, 70, 74. Okay, 74 for the first 74. Bludgeoning. Now roll that again for the thunder. I can't even hold them all. What am I gonna do with all these dice? Oh, my God. Oh, God. There's one that's cocked right there. That's a six. That's very cocked. Hold on. Five. Okay, okay, okay. Hold on, hold on. I'm adding up my sixes. So that's 18, 24, 30, 40, 50. Starting to look rough. Dissolving deck, save for out in 56. Got to do deck, save for a Comet. D6. They are two different things. That's true. One's made of. One's made of 66. Seven comets. Now there's something meatier. 73, 75, 77, 80. Oh, my God. That's 154. All right, well, first let's see if make their saves. Okay, so for the hands, the far hand fails. That hand is absolutely obliterated. This hand. Well, here, I'll put it this way. Describe to me how you conjure these meteors and what it looks like in the middle of this chamber as you look down at your hand. As I look down at my hand. I think back to the vision that we watched of the R chart calling down the meteor swarm to destroy Aeor. And I'm going to channel that. But there's no sky open above us. So this chamber starts to rumble and my telekinetic abilities are going to start breaking down giant rocks from the ceiling and slamming them down. As the rocks begin to dislodge from the top with incredible telekinetic force, you watch as purple lightning begins to completely swarm around the outside of him, forming them into small storm bombs. Essentially. Wind starts to swirl around me as I press my hands down into the ground. My hair flies up. Why not? This hand is absolutely obliterated. This Farhan over there succeeds with its save, which means it takes 38 points of bludgeoning damage and still 80 points of thunder damage, which obliterates it. She is the storm baby. This one is destroyed. Big money, Big money that one. Please, please, please. Seven plus nine on our dex is going to be 1622, so that's going to be 74. 80 is doubled, so it's 160 plus 74. 234 points of damage. Imagine, Tymnalt, how do you want to do this? What's. Oh my God. In the back of your mind you hear a distant voice kind of echo. Absolutely beautiful. Oh my God. I'm gonna look up from where I am, which is right at its right underneath it. I'm gonna make eye contact with Predathos. You're energy begins to billow in its mouth. The dark beam begins to reform. All of you. Your vision is clouded with complete and utter dust obfuscation. Shards of shale and rock and crystal pepper your bodies to the point where you have to curl into a ball to maintain. Maintain any semblance of not losing your vision or eyes through the smattering of danger. In the quiet as the dust slowly begins to settle and the broken shattered glass head of Predathos itself is crumbled and motionless. What elements of its arms still remain themselves? Also back to the glass pillars that once marbled through this land. Floating there, air adrift. Ruidus Born vessel. Imogen Temple. A few of you are still unconscious. Though battle is over. You're still unconscious? No. Anybody still unconscious? No. They're all still up. Everybody's up. That's right. So here you all sit. As out of the crystalline form of the Predathos head, a light gently begins to emerge. And a semi humanoid entity made of gentle light seems to stumble out. The one that you Encountered when you first arrived. And it looks towards you. Can we go now? Just walks forward like a toddler. The matron told me to. To contain it. Right. Its light begins to dim. And you watch as its body kind of splinters into dozens, hundreds of small motes of sparking light. And it just drifts into Imogen. Whereas when Predathos had merged with its vessel on your arrival and wrestled control from you, in this instance, it's like cradling the tiniest little frog or field mouse. It is diminished. It is tired, and for the moment, docile. And beneath it all, it's already begun to grow. Well, you're right, Sophia. Is it affecting you? Not yet. But I think it will. We should hurry. We need to talk to the gods. You talk to them again. I pull back out the mask. You look at the mask and it is currently grayed and crumbled. And as you glance over it, it falls apart in your hand like old paper mache. I think they're waiting for us. Let's go meet them. Out of here. Out of here. This is it. Work. Risking it all again. That was incredible. That was. That was incredible. Thank you, Dorian. You're welcome. This is scary. Should we leave? We have to hurry. Yeah. If we have to take it out of here, we got to go as fast as possible. To where? Out. Just out. Everything else I think will work itself out, but we have to get out of here now. Gotta go do some. I'm getting. Sections of ceiling that were dislodged. Have left what looks to be a semi fractured ceiling above. And cracks within it are beginning to spider and spread what was exposed above. You can see the continued glass of the prime pillar itself. The pulse now growing dark. You hear another loud crack. Like a massive glacier suddenly shifting and breaking. We don't have teleport anymore. Thank you for that. Down the hall, you hear a voice, weak. Imogen. Oh, mama. Mama. Stepping through the barriers, still semi translucent from Ludinus. In your work, you see Liliana holding herself her coat closed. Does that smell like Liliana? Uh huh. Make perception check. 15. 15. Oh my God. Oh no. It can't. A smell whisper. How does that even work? With chisel. And I'm tired filing nails. Sincerely, though, I'm just going to to cast message into Imogen's head. You're gonna be a prime target right now. We need a hurry out of this room. And don't trust anyone. This is not me casting blame or doubt. Is it done? What? Is it done? It's done. We need to go where? I don't know. I am shoving everybody away from here. Up and out. You all start stepping back from where you came back into the outer edges and layers of the prime pillar. You hear heavy cracks below in the chamber behind you. Part of it begins to shuffle in and collapse and fill with rocks, glass and debris. Does anybody have any healing as we run? Sure, yeah. I have a shitty potion. Oh yeah, we have potions. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. But everybody needs to take one. Orym is starting to. Little tendrils are spreading across him and he's actually starting to repair while we move. And I'm going to use my.35 passive perception while I still have it. And just try to listen for Luden is coming back or anything as we go through. So we don't check. For me. Take this. Really, what is it? 29 points of healing alcohol. 27. 7 plus what? 4. Yeah, take it. Thank you, Brace. I'll make out with you later. You all continue into the next chamber. Back to where you had defeated. You can see the bodies still of the destroyed other Ruidus born that were sealing the for the near attempt of Ludinus taking her permanently within himself as well as the dark sludge that was once Ludinus body. You head further out as elements around you are starting to stumble and fall. One of them slams close to the next of you this side of the table. Could you all make dexterity saving throws for you guys? I'm going to need some fucking help here. If you're next to me, you get a plus four. Are we close at it on the table? See, everyone on this side of the table does here. 29. All right, take five points of piercing damage. 24. 24. Five points of piercing damage. 29 plus 4. 33. Five points of piercing damage natural. 25 points of piercing damage. You all like the blast of glass shards that kind of shoots out from the impact. Kind of peppers you like a series of small bullets. And you all manage to to shrug it off mostly as you rushed further into the large crack, the massive crevice that was the opening to the prime pillar that you crawled into. As you step through, you realize that beyond this is just an open chasm. You are still in the core of the moon. Oh, jeez. How are we going to get out of here? I don't know. I don't feel so good. Arfy. Is anyone chasing us? You should take this. It's hard. Everything's falling apart. Stable. I cast cure wounds on myself. I can do a. I can do A fourth level cure wounds and a second level. I have. I have some. I'm just going to call out. With seedling, I get 10 hit points every minute. So five minutes later. 10 minutes later. You haven't gotten to five or 10 yet. No, I know, but yeah, good enough. Who's low? Who's. Who's low? I can do stuff too. What does low mean? Under 92 hit points every round. I would heal three points but we're not on initiative, so. Correct. I think it's a bloodlusting. So it's not if we're not in combat. It doesn't happen. No, it happens in combat until you're at half health. Does it happen out of combat too? I think so, yeah. Oh, boy. Do you think that my seat have a quick rise method? Breast elevator. Yeah. Keep running. Yeah. You all continue through the snake of the chasm and the glass until eventually you come to that extended platform where you can see the open chasm above you. There are the pillars that you leapt down to come here. But each is about 30ft from each going up there. And they're all elevated at this point, so you'd have to. I'm going to send a message. Do I have any third level? I have a fourth level left of 25 points. Oh, wow. Thank you. Do we have time to help each other out, cast spells, heal and stuff? You have a moment here. You aren't immediately collapsing, but you do hear the collapsing behind you and you do see other fast parts of the chasm. There are the heavy sound of those cracks continuing to break and spiral. And in this place, when it echoes, that noise goes off. It's like it's echoing around the chasm, bouncing off all the stone walls. I'm going to send a message out to Caleb. To Caleb. To Caleb. All right, we did it. But everything's falling apart. Are you here? Can you get us out? Does Caleb have spell slots? And oh. Oh, my gosh. From the last time you played. Oh, my good gravy. I don't know. Give me a sec. While I was figuring that out, I'm just kind of shell shocked, absentmindedly playing my mandolin that Dariax gave me. But that was great mandolin because I have slots. I have little low level healing slots for that. So I've got four left. In that amount of time. Could I do four level he three healing spells? Yeah, you can as you go. Yeah. I'm twiddling around playing bad songs. You know, like somebody plays guitar and they can't do a full song. It's just snippets of songs. That's what I'm doing. And I'll heal. Chat for good. 7, 7, 6. 14, 23. That last cave. 8, 5, 16, 2. Who's got low? Are you low? What are you at, Ash? I'm 37. 37. You're low. I'm 29. Yeah, so I'll take. Yeah. 16. I got two more. You still on fire right now? 8 to 13 to Brayus. That's good. My last one. Yes. 8, 8, 5. So how does Caleb respond to who they're at? The end Ish of where they were. They are in the process now of. I'd say, finishing out capturing those who still remain after the Weavemine was destroyed. It's almost like when the Weavemine was destroyed. Much like Sauron to Mordor. All those that were there to defend them are now terrified and without their connected tether of the Hivemine. So at this point, you've all been rounding up those who have surrendered and in the process of finishing out taking captives and survivors of the assault on the Arx Creonum. I am pretty spent. I don't know where you are. How could I get to you? I got a spell left. You do? Is there anybody else that you can think of nearby that I might be able to help? Ira. Ira? Can he teleport? I mean Tevan, Tevin. Shrek, My boyfriend. I love him. He can't do anything right. He can do so much. He's the greatest. That. Take it easy. He's so good. Could Ira get us out? He can get himself in. What about plane rider Rin? She's on the moon. She'll lie. You saw her at the top of. We already did. Wait, was she alive? You freed her from her statue? She's a plane rider like you, Chetney. We were disguised, so she like vamped away. Let's go find her. Wait, we already. We did a short rest with Mighty Nein at one point. Right? For arcane recovery. We did it. I'd say it's probably. It's probably been time for a short rest. After you. But I don't know if we'd like in there traversing. I can't remember if we took one or not. We didn't take a short rest when they were. Well, then I could use arcane recovery once per day. When you finish a short rest, you can choose expended spell slots to cover up to a combined level of 10. Which means I could get a. I could teleport to you, but then I Could. I would be able to get away. I could fly some people across this chasm. Sure. I could fly. No, I could fly a couple people. Because even if we get in touch with plane rider Ryn, she doesn't know where to. None of the slots can be seventh level or higher. Can be sixth level or higher. Seventh. She'll know we're a fellow plane rider. Just keep running. Who else is there? Oh, look in your notebooks. I mean, the only person that would know where we are to get to us is Ira. Ira or plane rider in. But like plane rider Wren doesn't even necessarily know here. She lives to get to. Because plane rider Wren was frozen on Exandria. Now, plane rider Wren was frozen on Exandria and then brought to Kreviri. No, I understand that, but would not have a knowledge of where Bell's Hells are right now. People have ways of remote seeing. Yeah. Okay. She goes to places she doesn't know all the time. I think she's an excellent. I think. I mean, we could teleport his house as well too. Because then she could SCRY and try and get here, I guess. Can people teleport? The cracking sound gets louder from behind the planet with me. I think on planet is the way to go. Okay. I'm going to send a message to plane rider Rin. Okay. Where are we? We're at the core, by the hallowed cave cage. We went down garbage chute. Goonie chutes. Yeah. But we're in the hallowed cage, right? Yes. That's where we are. You are outside of the hallowed cage. You were in the bottom of the prime pillar near the core of the moon. All right. Inspiration. Rin, we need help. We're at the hollow cage. Everything's falling apart. But we succeeded. Can you get us out? It's a brief moment of heavy breath across the way. Michael. Goodness. Really? Well, let me see what I can do. That's all you get back. Okay. You likely would not resist the SCRY spell. No. Yeah. Okay. You sense something remotely viewing the space where you're at. I would like someone to roll a D100 for me, please. Jenny's good at that. Yep. Listen, there's one thing I'm good for. Hold on. The nipples. 74. That's good. 74 is an on target roll. Yes. Not but a moment later, there's a. A swirl of energy. A plume of red green flame and dust. And there, standing next to you, you see the beautiful image of plane rider Ryn, still looking a bit frazzled. A bit dusty as they appear in. Yes, quite a pickle you've all found yourselves in. First off, thank you very much for the assist. I'm sorry we looked a little spooky earlier. You see, they've taken their coat they had and wrapped it around the one missing arm. And with the other hand out there. This looks like it's not holding very well either. Would love a direct route out of this planet. That'd be great. Off the moon. If we can. Lava. Lava. Lava. Where? The only one I know is the bloody bridge. Oh, that's. We want to go about halfway back, right? Wait. What about the secret entrance? The secret entrance? Where's that? We can tell her where to find that. I can. Oh, boy. I am going to. How many people can you take with you? I can take eight and myself. Oh, but my mom, he put her in the hole for a split second maybe. Yeah. I'll go in. Let your mom be out. She's good at holding their breath. Who's got a high constitution? I can hold my breath forever. Forever. Oh, well then you're going in the hole. Put me in. Put me in. Coach, I'm gonna be useless. You can put me in. I will cast a very high level silent image to try and show plane rider Ren the private the secret entrance. Did one of us pick up a pebble or something from that area too? Because that can help as an anchor for teleportation. We did pick up some rocks, but we did. I picked up. I. Go ahead. I have this amulet that I scooped off of a dead elf body from that area. Oh, from the buried ruins that we have. Oh, I picked up a rock from the shoreline at the lake. Does teleportation work from. No. It seems like, yeah. But you got the amulet and the amulet. So I'm going to pull out this. What was the name of this damn thing? The bloody bridge is down and is probably the golden latticework around the moon, right? No, we don't. The latticework around the moon is probably still. The latticework is associated with the divine gate. So that's still out. Yeah. Well, that's pretty cool. So the elevator's gone, but our secret entrance is the. Who built it like that? I felt like you said Amulet of cursed Life. I have this amulet of cursed life that we got from that area. If that's where we're going to go. Like since we knew that it was our entry in the middle of cursed life. You got an AOR if I recall. Oh, you did get it from a. My good Berries are all gone from that spot. Did anyone grab anything associated with that region? Let's see, let's see. Go back places. Yeah. As you construct this image, you see Rin's looking at it. Well, it is very amorphous. Certainly possible it's just a bit. Ruins that were sideways and upside down. Right. I've seen many of those. We can give it a shot. It is a very good chance we're not quite at where we're trying. I mean, we could just vamp to the outside of the city and go. It's just. You don't mind walking. How far is it? Oh, that's right. That's a long walk. That's a long walk in terms of just trying to go to the bloody bridge. I mean, there's got to be. The bloody bridge is probably down. The bloody bridge is far further from where you guys. You guys discovered this area on the way to Kreviris from the bloody bridge. Yeah. So the secret entrance is actually closer to Kreviris. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Can we get out? When we came through the secret entrance, did we see a city or a tower right after we left? No, it was a few hours of travel, if I recall. To the outside of Kreviris. Yeah. And that was the first sort of site we came to campus. Any of the shoes. There's a shop in the. No, not in that area. That was here. I took stones from the. That was here in the city. Well, we're stuck here. No, I mean, we can show. We can describe it. So I can take a risky attempt at bringing us there and maybe showing up somewhere and like it. Or we could go to the outside of the city and just book it the rest of the way. How are we feeling? You tell me. Well, I mean, we know we can safely get outside the city, right? Maybe we can do that. It's just a couple hours of travel. Sure, let's go. Couple of hours. I don't know what else to do. You gothos rumbling in your tummy. Yeah, I mean, hours, days, what's the difference? Okay, so someone's jumping in a portable hole for a minute. A minute. I'll do it. I can stay behind. No, it's all right. We have a workaround though, Bris. Yeah, but I don't want Dorian to have to go in that. It's hole with disgusting dead bodies. Open the hole. I can hold my breath forever. No, I'm getting in there. I'm slow. A splintering, massive piece of glassy stone hits. I need everyone to Make a dexterity saving. We waited too long. Yes, we did. Ooh, wait. 26. 26. You take six points of bludgeoning damage. Do you still. After you die. 71 unconscious on this, take 12 points of bludgeoning damage. I'm still a wolf, so that's three. That's awesome. Doran. 16. Was it dex? Dex. Yeah. 26. 26. You take six points of bludgeoning damage. 18, you take six points of bludgeoning Damage. 11, you take 12 points of bludgeoning damage. Imogen. 20. You take six points of bluDgeoning damage. 21. Both of you guys take six points of bludgeoning damage. All right. Ow. The platform you're on kind of like cracks. There's just enough smooth glass you can try and lay the hole down to put somebody in it. Oh, God. Hurry. Whoever's going to do that and try and find the flattest service to do so against the glass platform. It's your best bet. Whoever's going to try that, go ahead and make an investigation. Check to see if you can find an area to put it down. I'll just do it. All right. You have inspiration? I do. I gave you inspiration. How much? How much is that? Six, five? It's not gonna be enough. Eight. Well, 15. 15's enough. Okay, 15's enough. It wasn't terribly challenging, but there is a chance that there wasn't a surface here that you can even lay it down on. And then you gotta get real creative. You find one area where you're pressing and ironing it out. Find one little lip, and you tug it one direction. And suddenly the hole apparates there in the middle of the glass. In, in, in. Go. Whoever can hold their breath. Go. Go. You can hold your breath. Definitely. Go. The gem inside your feet hit something soft. And just as the hole closes up, the smell of rot overtakes your senses. I have an elven doll. That's true. I don't smell a thing. A little bit still gets up in your nostrils. You can get just a little bit of it. Even though you try not to. It kind of catches the palate. Before we go, I scooped up an ancient elven dollars from Horse and elven doll. You did. You did. All right. You hand that to Rin, if that's all right. We're going delightfully creepy. Yes. But hopefully it'll bark. Okay. I also still have some. Takes it and drapes it over the shoulder of the missing arm and begins to pull you all closely right as the platform. You feel the glass beginning to Splinter. And you look down. It's looking on a heavy glass. A thick glass platform you're on. And you're watching cracks slowly spread through it. I'm. Scoop up a tiny little fragment of that glass and just take it. Okay. All right. Hold on. Puts the hand out as it does. All of a sudden. This spiral of runes. Apparates in the air and wraps all of you. All of you are pulled in like a massive tether. Tugs tightly and pulls you in. And then Apparates again. And you're now standing in the middle by the side of the river that is pouring through the underground elven ruins of the ancient city that was drawn to Ruidus. Creepy doll for the wind as an associated object. You don't even have to roll. Yay. We're the best in the water. We should go. We should go. Let's go. Let Dorian out. I'm just kidding. Didn't we make little markings to annotate? So we look for our markings to go there. Doesn't take you too long. But the other thing that catches your attention is the heavy sound of foot movement and armor as you approach the portion where the portal releases into this. You can see there is now stationed in a mast a massive army. Ashari. Of ours. Huh? Of ours. Oshari. Not Ashari. Of all manner of holy warriors and soldiers. As it looks like the remaining forces of Vasselheim have now begun to march through this opening onto Ruidus. The whole hallway is filled as people are pouring through and regiments are moving through. What do you do? Turn around. Turn around. Predathos has been defeated. The situation has changed. We have to get out of here immediately. As you say these noises. The people turn and look. And people start whispering and calling. And someone shouts over Dust General. Dust General. You watch as the male elf pushes through. Heavily armored and decorated. You could see a massive holy symbol of the moonweaver hanging from around their neck. And a heavy dark blue cloak that falls behind their black hair with streaks of white that push back. And some sort of a tattooed marking that is mirrored on each side of their face. Face. One eye shines gold. Steps forward. You can see two angelic winged beings flutter above as they hear this. And then both of them have their hands on their weapons at the side. I am General Okirai. You are Bels. Hells. Yes. That's correct. Yes. We are Doom. I assume that your presence here means success. It does. Looks back towards one of the angels. The angel hovers forward a little bit. Oh. Oh no. She carries the God Eater. The whole, I mean, shifts in place. Weapons are drawn at the ready. You watch as another entity, heavily armored, this female Goliath with massive claw scars down her chin. You see these darkened dull gray stone like eyes with burning cold pupils in the center. She has this heavy thick fur hide armor over a massive metal breastplate. You see the symbol on the chest, that of a single bleeding eye. You see her step forward with this nasty looking and hooked flail at her side. In our case, it means they gotta die too. And General Okirizes. Wait, Busano. We don't know this individual. I've heard of Busona goes like. Now let them be smited. Come down, great one, and devour those who would devour you. You watch as the gray eyes burn bright red like massive burning coals. The whole room seems to quake as red light fills the chamber. The stone above seems to crack and open as smoke. Smoke pours forth. And you see a single burning red eye begin to fold out from the top of the tunnel above you as it looks like a symbol of the Ruiner peers forth, its muscular black skin reaching down above you. This divine intervention called down to end this moment. As the Ruiner peeks down upon Imogen, withdraws. The stone crumbles and you watch. Asuna looks confused, eyes wide. The light fade. Okirai says they cannot touch her and to kill her is to set it free. What do you want? An apology to begin with. That was so fucking rude. Goodness to Leth has fallen. Whispers begin to scatter about them. And you're right. Our friend is the only thing keeping it in check. We have things to discuss. The Goliath steps forward a bit, still shaken, but trying to put on a brave face. Discuss with who? Certainly not you. Why don't you step aside? We'd like to talk to the manager. Kiriah looks to the angels and the angels with their blades are out have witnessed this moment. We would call for them to be imprisoned, but I do not think even our binds would hold. I think we need to get to Vassal hut. I agree. Mm. All the angelic figures look at each other. They look down at the General. The General looks absolutely pale in the face. Don't worry, we'll let you accompany us. That's a better deal than you're gonna get otherwise. We believe many of your masters are already expecting us. Okay. I would like those of you who wish to make a persuasion check, do so. Those of you who wish to make an intimidation check instead, you may do that. This is a group unfortunately settling Presence for my intimidation check. Sure. I'll allow that in the general disadvantage. This would be fun. Think unsettling presence. Hang on. I think it gives. Starting over here with you, Chetney. 12. 12. All right. He has a. He has disadvantage on his next throw. Okay. So in this case, it wouldn't necessarily help the check, but. 22. 22. Intimidation. Okay, great. Nat. 20. Yeah, they're totally different. D. It's crazy. I'm stunned. That's beautiful. I'm so. I want to focus on Usana. I want to focus my persuasion. Like, Okira, you mean? No, Usana. Oh, I see. I see. Yeah. Okay. And I'm just kind of. That's the name of the verb. Surely. Busono. Yeah. Surely. You want to let us go. And I'll kind of, like, rub her a little. I'll rub her hand a little bit, and I'll just smile and wink at her. Pulls the hand back and, like, almost like, seems to bite her teeth in reaction, like. But she's gonna dream about you, and there is gonna be a glimmer of being turned on. 22. 22. Alrighty. 28. All right. 35. 17. Persuasion. 13. Intimidation. Okay. Damn, you're pretty weak right now. Oh, I have disadvantage. You. Watch as the angels look at each other. Their eyes suddenly go golden, and they seem to be whispering under their breath while their eyes peer off past the rock and beyond. At once, their eyes return to their normal pale white coloration. You may continue. We will escort you. Thanks. It will turn to the general. A general? This. We will take you to the walls, but we cannot take you into Vasselheim. That is for the dawn marshals to decide. All right, Come on. Chop chop. Let's go. There is just an air of fear and paralysis throughout this entire battalion of scattered sources and forces. And as you step forward, they all give a wide berth, the soldiers all looking upon you and specifically at you. And you notice Imogen as you walk, both you and Fearne. That Ruidus born energy is not just a tether, but it is that drifting, emanating power. That red energy is like a force of red heat that drips off you and vanishes in the air. You both are together in proximity and tethered, more or less. While you are the vessel, you together are the ones bearing the God Eater beyond its boundary into exandria and about to walk it to the gate of Vasselheim. As you step through, you see the soldiers of various faith callings, holy symbols of all sorts and types, set aside to inner portions of this Militaristic regiment. You see well adorned holy warriors. You see makeshift mercenaries. You see armored devils and angels, awkwardly forced to step shoulder to shoulder to make room as you walk through. Until you all emerge from the still separated Lake Umamu and set forth onto Exandria, burying Predathos, the Red End, for the first time in millennia. And the moment you cross that threshold, a chill takes the atmosphere and you watch as a number of the holy warriors around clutch their holy symbols. A number of them, almost in unison, look to you two and say they know it's here. You step outside of the lake, your boots sloshing against the now still exposed sediment, until you come to the edge, where the Aishari are waiting, though themselves put to the side, more or less overrun by the forces of Vasselheim. As we're walking down the water, Orym will look up to plane rider Ryn. Plane rider, would you come with us? I'd have your company just a little bit longer. Oh, I think it's best I can explain what I've seen here as well. It's been a very interesting day indeed. Yes, I think I will come up long. I mean, not everyone gets to witness. Whatever you're planning to do, stay close as you all step to the edge. While your sisters are not present, other Ashari remain. And within a brief conversation, the soldiers escort you and are given orders from the holy warriors to maintain a tree tunnel to the outside walls. There you are met with the midday brightness and snowfall of the early morning in vast slime, as it seems that through moments of time and shift of movement, hours have passed. The dawn light cresting over the mountain range as the chill hits your shoulders. And there atop the exterior wall, looking down upon you, hundreds of crossbows and ballista point it directly. And that's where we're gonna pick up next episode. The Red End Field Mouse oh man. Oh, boy. Wow. With a hell of a bargaining chip. The Ruiner took a peek and was like, I'm good. That cleric was like, I finally got divine intervention to pop off. And my God went, nah, what the hell Rules is written. What the fuck rules is written? You have to be here. Do something. Oh, man. We shall return with our next episode to see how the arrival of the vessel of the God Eater within the dawn cradle itself and what this means for likely future conversation with the gods themselves. So we'll see you next time. Thank you all very much for joining us. We love you very much. And is it Thursday? Oh, thank you, Archer. And that concludes this episode of Critical Role.
