| 00:00:00 | Tim | Welcome adventurers to session one of our ongoing |
| 00:00:04 | Tim | journey into the Dragon's Delve, a dungeon of |
| 00:00:08 | Tim | dangers, mysteries and ancient power. Our heroes |
| 00:00:12 | Tim | press deeper into the labyrinths, twisting corridors, |
| 00:00:16 | Tim | facing new perils and uncovering secrets long |
| 00:00:20 | Tim | buried beneath the earth. So grab your dice, ready your spells and |
| 00:00:26 | Tim | join us once more as we descend into the Dragon's Delve. |
| 00:00:30 | GM - Dave | I don't agree why, but a hundred years ago |
| 00:00:32 | GM - Dave | the surrounding lands took up arms |
| 00:00:35 | GM - Dave | against Duke Chordille and raised his keep. |
| 00:00:39 | GM - Dave | But the real reason is that the Duchess had |
| 00:00:43 | GM - Dave | forged a pact with a demon lord. You'll like |
| 00:00:46 | GM - Dave | this one. Throughout Dragon's Delves lie blue |
| 00:00:48 | GM - Dave | steel doors, magical barriers created by the |
| 00:00:51 | GM - Dave | infamous Mages Four. These doors are |
| 00:00:55 | GM - Dave | indestructible, but each has a magic password |
| 00:00:58 | GM - Dave | which allows it to be opened easily. |
| 00:01:01 | Lómeril - Pete | Infamous Mages Four were professional GMs. |
| 00:01:04 | GM - Dave | Okay, so that's the best of the rumours going |
| 00:01:09 | GM - Dave | at the moment., Okay, people suggest that you |
| 00:01:17 | GM - Dave | might want to plan to camp there. It's a two-hour |
| 00:01:23 | GM - Dave | march through the forest through a reasonably |
| 00:01:26 | GM - Dave | obvious trail to the actual ruin of the keep itself, |
| 00:01:31 | GM - Dave | which is there. |
| 00:01:32 | GM - Dave | Okay, so anyone wants |
| 00:01:34 | GM - Dave | to buy before they set off? |
| 00:01:36 | Jestix - Tim | Pete, is it lamp oil day probably? |
| 00:01:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Lamp oil and food and water and |
| 00:01:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | those sorts of supplies. |
| 00:01:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Pete, I assume you are absolutely brassic |
| 00:01:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and there were a few things on that list |
| 00:01:53 | Mistress Fria - Howard | which you wanted to buy but needed. |
| 00:01:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | If I could just, you know, well, have met |
| 00:01:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | you in the pub and decided we're going |
| 00:02:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | this way, I am but a poor young gnome. |
| 00:02:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm not strong. |
| 00:02:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | If you could agree just to effectively |
| 00:02:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | bodyguard me at times and to assist, to keep |
| 00:02:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | safe, I would happily lend you 20 gold pieces |
| 00:02:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | to make sure and maybe put a similar amount |
| 00:02:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | into the party to ensure |
| 00:02:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | we buy food and oil sufficiently. |
| 00:02:36 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Now, I regret I'm carrying about as much as |
| 00:02:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | my poor weak female frame can do, but if |
| 00:02:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | you guys could carry a bit more food and |
| 00:02:46 | Mistress Fria - Howard | water and, you know, lamp |
| 00:02:48 | Mistress Fria - Howard | oil for us, that might be very useful. |
| 00:02:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, so… |
| 00:02:53 | Lómeril - Pete | Would it be better just to buy a mule. |
| 00:02:55 | Lómeril - Pete | and use it as a pack animal? |
| 00:03:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yes, so long as we can take it down |
| 00:03:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | the dungeon and it doesn't get killed. |
| 00:03:03 | Mistress Fria - Howard | But yes, that's what the |
| 00:03:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | sort of thing I'm thinking about. |
| 00:03:07 | GM - Dave | A mule, that's a pretty good idea, actually. |
| 00:03:10 | GM - Dave | How much will this cost? |
| 00:03:11 | Lómeril - Pete | After all, this place is loaded with |
| 00:03:14 | Lómeril - Pete | gems and jewels and copper coins. |
| 00:03:17 | GM - Dave | 8 gold. |
| 00:03:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I suspect that it will be a day or so, |
| 00:03:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | you know, the easy to get to bits |
| 00:03:25 | Mistress Fria - Howard | will be looted completely. |
| 00:03:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So we may have to delve quite deeply before |
| 00:03:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | we get to the floor that |
| 00:03:35 | Mistress Fria - Howard | is littered with gems and jewels. |
| 00:03:37 | GM - Dave | Well, Howard, you've got loads of cash, |
| 00:03:40 | GM - Dave | so a mule is well within your capability. |
| 00:03:43 | Lómeril - Pete | Buy a mule, lots of oats. |
| 00:03:45 | GM - Dave | So for 10 gold, Howard, you can |
| 00:03:48 | GM - Dave | get a mule and 20 lots of oil. |
| 00:03:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That'll do nicely. |
| 00:03:53 | GM - Dave | Okay, you've got tokens here for your money. |
| 00:03:56 | GM - Dave | I've just spent 10 gold for you. |
| 00:03:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Is this my… because I've got a certain |
| 00:04:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | amount I kept on me, but there's |
| 00:04:03 | Mistress Fria - Howard | stuff unspent on my character sheet. |
| 00:04:04 | GM - Dave | Yeah, it was about 150, I reckon. |
| 00:04:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, that's about right. |
| 00:04:08 | GM - Dave | I've just spent 10 gold for you on… |
| 00:04:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Perfect, thank you. |
| 00:04:12 | GM - Dave | So you get… |
| 00:04:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Mule and oil. |
| 00:04:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And quite frankly, trail rations. |
| 00:04:25 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I forget your name, Mr… |
| 00:04:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I want to say Lord Mabe, but |
| 00:04:31 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I've changed my name. |
| 00:04:33 | Jestix - Tim | Jestix. |
| 00:04:35 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Jestix. Mr. Jestix, obviously |
| 00:04:38 | Mistress Fria - Howard | our poor fighter is fairly poor, but I suspect |
| 00:04:46 | Mistress Fria - Howard | that you and I are in a similar position. |
| 00:04:49 | Jestix - Tim | I'm probably in a much better position |
| 00:04:50 | Jestix - Tim | than you at the moment, as I've got… |
| 00:04:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Nothing to spend it on. |
| 00:04:54 | Jestix - Tim | Yes. |
| 00:04:55 | Mistress Fria - Howard | If you wish to, perhaps… |
| 00:04:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I bought the mule and the oil. |
| 00:05:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Perhaps if you contribute the food? |
| 00:05:03 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah. |
| 00:05:04 | GM - Dave | So that's 30 days worth of food? |
| 00:05:08 | Jestix - Tim | No, 10 days worth of food, because three of us. |
| 00:05:13 | GM - Dave | Yeah, 10 days, that's 30 man days. |
| 00:05:16 | Jestix - Tim | Yes. |
| 00:05:18 | GM - Dave | Okay, so you also want some food |
| 00:05:20 | GM - Dave | for your horse, your mule. |
| 00:05:25 | GM - Dave | Okay, so we'll assume you've got food |
| 00:05:28 | GM - Dave | thrown in with your bucket load |
| 00:05:31 | GM - Dave | of food that you've just bought. |
| 00:05:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, we'll get a week's food with the mule. |
| 00:05:39 | GM - Dave | Yeah. |
| 00:05:40 | GM - Dave | Anything else you want to buy? |
| 00:05:42 | GM - Dave | I don't think any of you've |
| 00:05:43 | GM - Dave | got any things like rope or… |
| 00:05:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I have rope. |
| 00:05:46 | Jestix - Tim | I have rope. |
| 00:05:47 | GM - Dave | People bought rope, wow. |
| 00:05:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh yeah, I actually bought very nice rope. |
| 00:05:52 | Jestix - Tim | I bought silk rope. |
| 00:05:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Ditto |
| 00:05:55 | GM - Dave | So any other adventuring |
| 00:05:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I've got… I tried to buy a five |
| 00:06:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | foot pole, but what do you call it? |
| 00:06:02 | Mistress Fria - Howard | PC gen just got so weird and |
| 00:06:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | it became impossible for me to carry. |
| 00:06:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So yeah, but other than that, |
| 00:06:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I've got everything from parchment, |
| 00:06:11 | Mistress Fria - Howard | sealing wax, fish hooks, lanterns. |
| 00:06:14 | GM - Dave | Okay, I gave Pete a backpack and a bed roll. |
| 00:06:18 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh yeah. |
| 00:06:18 | GM - Dave | Have you all got a bed roll? |
| 00:06:20 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah. |
| 00:06:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I didn't bother with that. |
| 00:06:26 | GM - Dave | Okay, it's also pretty cheap, |
| 00:06:28 | GM - Dave | so I'm not going to bother. |
| 00:06:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, I'll equip it from my… |
| 00:06:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and I'll take 10 off my character |
| 00:06:35 | Mistress Fria - Howard | sheet when I can get them. |
| 00:06:37 | GM - Dave | Yes. |
| 00:06:38 | GM - Dave | Okay, so assuming you've got everything |
| 00:06:41 | GM - Dave | you think you might need, one mule |
| 00:06:44 | GM - Dave | and loads of lamp oil, buckets of |
| 00:06:49 | GM - Dave | food and a mule to carry all your stuff on. |
| 00:06:56 | GM - Dave | You can basically load it up |
| 00:06:57 | GM - Dave | with your backpacks and stuff. |
| 00:06:58 | GM - Dave | So, you know, it's a relative. |
| 00:07:01 | GM - Dave | You don't even really need to wear |
| 00:07:03 | GM - Dave | your backpacks, I wouldn't think. |
| 00:07:05 | GM - Dave | Right, so and it takes you a short hour and |
| 00:07:08 | GM - Dave | a half to two hour walk through the forest. |
| 00:07:10 | GM - Dave | You encounter nothing exciting and you end |
| 00:07:13 | GM - Dave | up going up a nice gentle hill to a ruined castle. |
| 00:07:18 | GM - Dave | And basically around you is the debris |
| 00:07:21 | GM - Dave | remains of a smashed up castle. |
| 00:07:23 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So, gentlemen, we are about to |
| 00:07:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | enter a possibly series |
| 00:07:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | of life and death encounters. |
| 00:07:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Is there anything I should know? |
| 00:07:37 | Mistress Fria - Howard | In case you guys haven't picked |
| 00:07:41 | Mistress Fria - Howard | up on the fact, I want to be the |
| 00:07:44 | Mistress Fria - Howard | famous gnome in this entire land. |
| 00:07:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And I have some limited spell use, |
| 00:07:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | a little bit of money and a lot of enthusiasm |
| 00:07:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | for getting out there and killing stuff, earning |
| 00:07:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | a reputation and lots and lots |
| 00:08:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and lots of money. |
| 00:08:03 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Is there anything I should know about you? |
| 00:08:07 | Jestix - Tim | I tempted say I hate gnomes. |
| 00:08:11 | GM - Dave | Contrary Tim strikes again. |
| 00:08:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Well, you and I should get on fine. |
| 00:08:18 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I hate pretty much all |
| 00:08:20 | Mistress Fria - Howard | of the gnomes in my village. |
| 00:08:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | They're just so fucking boring. |
| 00:08:25 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I have no, I had never wanted |
| 00:08:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | to make traps in my life. |
| 00:08:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And that's all they wanted to do. |
| 00:08:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And they wanted to marry me off |
| 00:08:34 | Mistress Fria - Howard | to a nerdy little trap fucking maker. |
| 00:08:37 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So I'm with you, bald headed Monk. |
| 00:08:43 | GM - Dave | Fria, the gnome, Jestix, the human monk. |
| 00:08:49 | Jestix - Tim | And his dog. |
| 00:08:51 | GM - Dave | Yeah, and Lómeril. |
| 00:08:56 | Lómeril - Pete | Lómeril. |
| 00:08:59 | GM - Dave | That was a complete random |
| 00:09:01 | GM - Dave | pick, by the way, Pete. |
| 00:09:02 | Lómeril - Pete | That's fine. |
| 00:09:03 | Lómeril - Pete | That's perfectly good. |
| 00:09:06 | Lómeril - Pete | I appear to be a bald elf with huge sideburns. |
| 00:09:10 | Lómeril - Pete | Sorry, side whiskers. |
| 00:09:12 | Lómeril - Pete | The oddest thing, I appear to be a Scottish elf. |
| 00:09:16 | Lómeril - Pete | My only interest is probably to gain |
| 00:09:21 | Lómeril - Pete | lots of money to donate to my |
| 00:09:23 | Lómeril - Pete | temple of Corellon Larethian. |
| 00:09:26 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And who is Corellon Larethian? |
| 00:09:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Forgive my ignorance of your religious |
| 00:09:34 | Mistress Fria - Howard | ways, but educate me for a moment before. |
| 00:09:38 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And I'd like to do that |
| 00:09:39 | Mistress Fria - Howard | before it gets dangerous. |
| 00:09:41 | Lómeril - Pete | The elvish god of, I don't know. |
| 00:09:45 | GM - Dave | I don't know who he is. |
| 00:09:47 | Lómeril - Pete | Warriors starlight and |
| 00:09:49 | Lómeril - Pete | protecting against evil things. |
| 00:09:53 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That seems fair. |
| 00:09:55 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Well, I need a warrior who can |
| 00:09:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | protect me against evil things. |
| 00:09:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And you seem perfectly able. |
| 00:10:01 | GM - Dave | Leader of the elven pantheon in D&D. |
| 00:10:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Okay, and is the dog a familiar? |
| 00:10:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Or if it's in life-threatening |
| 00:10:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | danger, do we save it |
| 00:10:13 | Mistress Fria - Howard | just so that you don't die? |
| 00:10:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Or is it just a dog? |
| 00:10:19 | Lómeril - Pete | An expendable track detector. |
| 00:10:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah. |
| 00:10:24 | GM - Dave | I think he's talking about your dog, Tim. |
| 00:10:29 | Jestix - Tim | It's my dog. Henry, the dog. |
| 00:10:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Expendable track detector? |
| 00:10:34 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Something we protect with our lives? |
| 00:10:38 | Jestix - Tim | It's my friendly dog. |
| 00:10:42 | Mistress Fria - Howard | But not connected to you |
| 00:10:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | in any psychological way? |
| 00:10:47 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh, it is connected. Good. |
| 00:10:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Just so we know that if it |
| 00:10:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | happens to suffer some horrible fate, |
| 00:10:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | you will be adversely affected. |
| 00:10:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So we are obviously trying to protect it. |
| 00:10:58 | Jestix - Tim | I'll be pissed off and I'll then have to |
| 00:11:00 | Jestix - Tim | spend 24 hours summoning another one. |
| 00:11:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I can understand why you |
| 00:11:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | would be pissed off at that point. |
| 00:11:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Good to know. |
| 00:11:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | We'll try to avoid that. |
| 00:11:11 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So I won't go lobbing it into any pits. |
| 00:11:15 | Jestix - Tim | You tend to lob it into a pit and I will |
| 00:11:19 | Jestix - Tim | pick you up and lob you in there myself. |
| 00:11:21 | GM - Dave | Okay, so you're standing around the |
| 00:11:23 | GM - Dave | top with your horse and your dog and |
| 00:11:27 | GM - Dave | there seems to be a reasonably large |
| 00:11:30 | GM - Dave | bear area around some |
| 00:11:32 | GM - Dave | quite large stairs going down. |
| 00:11:36 | Mistress Fria - Howard | There's been a few fights and whatever. |
| 00:11:38 | GM - Dave | And there's obvious signs that campfires |
| 00:11:43 | GM - Dave | have been here and people have at |
| 00:11:45 | GM - Dave | some point camped in this general area. |
| 00:11:50 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Let's have a quick look around because |
| 00:11:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | it's the sort of thing where someone |
| 00:11:53 | Mistress Fria - Howard | come up and want to hide something |
| 00:11:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | before they go back down again. |
| 00:11:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | All of the rogues and thieves and |
| 00:12:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | people will come up quickly to hide |
| 00:12:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | something and then go back down again |
| 00:12:06 | Mistress Fria - Howard | in order to complete |
| 00:12:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | whatever they were doing. |
| 00:12:11 | Jestix - Tim | You're attempting to loot the dungeon |
| 00:12:14 | Jestix - Tim | before you're going into the dungeon. |
| 00:12:15 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yes, because it's reasonable. |
| 00:12:18 | GM - Dave | On the search roll, if you get a high value, |
| 00:12:21 | GM - Dave | then you might find something. |
| 00:12:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | This plus 5. |
| 00:12:26 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It almost hides against the green backdrop. |
| 00:12:29 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That's interesting. |
| 00:12:34 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I think that's a 10. |
| 00:12:39 | GM - Dave | You search around and find places |
| 00:12:42 | GM - Dave | where people have hidden stuff in the |
| 00:12:44 | GM - Dave | past, but they're all empty caches. |
| 00:12:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh, that's a good thought. |
| 00:12:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Keep searching, lads. |
| 00:12:53 | GM - Dave | Okay, Pete. you find that somebody |
| 00:12:59 | GM - Dave | has buried a piece of leather, |
| 00:13:04 | GM - Dave | which you roll out. |
| 00:13:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | A leathery piece of leather. |
| 00:13:10 | GM - Dave | It's a silk wrapping around a |
| 00:13:13 | GM - Dave | child's hand folded fan. |
| 00:13:18 | GM - Dave | It's a little tiny fan, probably actually Fria-sized. |
| 00:13:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Lovely. |
| 00:13:23 | GM - Dave | It's made of white silk stretched |
| 00:13:26 | GM - Dave | between two wooden frames. |
| 00:13:32 | Jestix - Tim | Well, there you go, Fria. |
| 00:13:35 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh, thanks very much. |
| 00:13:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Um, does it look anything |
| 00:13:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | special other than just nice? |
| 00:13:46 | GM - Dave | It's quite pretty, whether it's |
| 00:13:48 | GM - Dave | valuable or not, it's a different matter. |
| 00:13:51 | Jestix - Tim | Whether it's magic or not is another matter. |
| 00:13:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Is it worth our first detect magic moment? |
| 00:14:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh, actually, code-shaped emanation |
| 00:14:03 | Mistress Fria - Howard | detects magical items within 60 feet. |
| 00:14:06 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So I might set, I'm going to put this |
| 00:14:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | down, stand 30 feet back |
| 00:14:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and do a detect magic to see if |
| 00:14:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | there's anything else glowing in the area. |
| 00:14:20 | GM - Dave | That would be a level one spell, wouldn't it? |
| 00:14:23 | Mistress Fria - Howard | No, it's a cantrip for me. |
| 00:14:26 | GM - Dave | Zero love spells, that's what I mean. |
| 00:14:27 | GM - Dave | Here you are. |
| 00:14:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So, where's my zeros? |
| 00:14:31 | GM - Dave | Yeah, I just did it for you. |
| 00:14:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Thank you. |
| 00:14:33 | GM - Dave | So, yes, you scan around the area |
| 00:14:37 | GM - Dave | and find nothing within your |
| 00:14:39 | GM - Dave | scanning area that is magical. |
| 00:14:41 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Cool. Okay, it's been done before. |
| 00:14:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, worth a try. |
| 00:14:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It's just a nice little fan. |
| 00:14:47 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Thank you very much, gentlemen. |
| 00:14:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I shall treasure it always. |
| 00:14:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll shove it in my backpack. |
| 00:14:53 | GM - Dave | So, the stairs leading down to an area |
| 00:14:57 | GM - Dave | area with the stairs leading down again. |
| 00:15:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Okay. |
| 00:15:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Is there a party order? |
| 00:15:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I suggest that our beloved fighter |
| 00:15:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | goes down first and I'll go |
| 00:15:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | in the middle and Jestix at the end. |
| 00:15:15 | Lómeril - Pete | Disposable trap detector goes first. |
| 00:15:20 | GM - Dave | Jestix at the back, Fria's in the middle, |
| 00:15:25 | GM - Dave | and where do you want your dog? |
| 00:15:28 | Jestix - Tim | Next to me. |
| 00:15:31 | GM - Dave | Okay, so, shall we just wander down the stairs? |
| 00:15:36 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That would be good. |
| 00:15:37 | GM - Dave | And your light probably illuminates to |
| 00:15:41 | GM - Dave | about there, and you can just about make |
| 00:15:44 | GM - Dave | out that there's some rooms |
| 00:15:47 | GM - Dave | at the bottom of these stairs. |
| 00:15:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll have a quick look around. |
| 00:15:53 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Is there anything to indicate |
| 00:15:55 | Mistress Fria - Howard | the path most travelled? |
| 00:15:58 | GM - Dave | Oh, that's a good question. |
| 00:16:01 | GM - Dave | What sort of skill? You've got trucking? |
| 00:16:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | No, spot search, I think. |
| 00:16:07 | GM - Dave | You can use a search. |
| 00:16:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Well, I've just rolled a 15 natural plus 5, 20. |
| 00:16:13 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So, I've had a damn good, you know, insight. |
| 00:16:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I've rolled a 20, not a natural, but a 15. |
| 00:16:19 | GM - Dave | Okay, from the patterns in the |
| 00:16:24 | GM - Dave | mud and detritus on the floor of this landing |
| 00:16:28 | GM - Dave | area, not many people go to the eastern stairs. |
| 00:16:36 | GM - Dave | Northern stairs has had an awful lot of |
| 00:16:40 | GM - Dave | people very recently go up and down it. |
| 00:16:44 | GM - Dave | Some of them in sturdy looking boots. |
| 00:16:50 | Jestix - Tim | I don't know how they got those, |
| 00:16:53 | Jestix - Tim | because you can't buy boots on PCGen. |
| 00:16:57 | Jestix - Tim | Unless they're magical. |
| 00:16:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | No you can, I had create custom boots. |
| 00:17:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I am wearing custom boots. |
| 00:17:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Because I wanted custom boots. |
| 00:17:08 | GM - Dave | So, and to the west, you find |
| 00:17:12 | GM - Dave | some animal footprints. |
| 00:17:18 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Excellent. |
| 00:17:19 | GM - Dave | So, to the east, it doesn't look like |
| 00:17:22 | GM - Dave | people go that way very often. |
| 00:17:24 | GM - Dave | To the north, there's actually |
| 00:17:29 | GM - Dave | reasonably recent footprints. |
| 00:17:31 | GM - Dave | I mean, it's got wet patches. |
| 00:17:33 | GM - Dave | No, we're talking this morning, probably. |
| 00:17:37 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Wow. |
| 00:17:37 | GM - Dave | To the west, some dry animal footprints. |
| 00:17:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Okay. Gentlemen, I want to find out |
| 00:17:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | why no one goes east. |
| 00:17:50 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I suspect it's because it's dangerous |
| 00:17:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and we need to be very cautious. |
| 00:17:54 | Jestix - Tim | But if no one goes east, how |
| 00:17:56 | Jestix - Tim | do they know it's dangerous? |
| 00:17:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That's a good question. |
| 00:18:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Maybe just no one turns left. |
| 00:18:02 | Jestix - Tim | Yes, everybody follows the herd. |
| 00:18:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Exactly. |
| 00:18:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So, and I always like being a little bit… |
| 00:18:09 | Jestix - Tim | Contrary. |
| 00:18:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | …random and contrary. |
| 00:18:11 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So, I'm up for that, if you are. East |
| 00:18:16 | Jestix - Tim | We're going somewhere, so east |
| 00:18:18 | Jestix - Tim | is as good a direction as any. |
| 00:18:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yep. |
| 00:18:20 | GM - Dave | Who's actually holding the lantern? |
| 00:18:23 | Lómeril - Pete | Not me. |
| 00:18:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I will, because I'm in the middle. |
| 00:18:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Okay, that's okay. |
| 00:18:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And it's my lantern. |
| 00:18:31 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I've got a lovely hooded lantern |
| 00:18:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and oil and stuff. |
| 00:18:37 | GM - Dave | Okay, you come into quite a large chamber. |
| 00:18:41 | GM - Dave | A very large door there. |
| 00:18:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Going along. |
| 00:18:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I've heard tales and I come |
| 00:18:47 | Mistress Fria - Howard | from a family of trap makers. |
| 00:18:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So, I'm intrigued as to why |
| 00:18:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | no one comes this way. |
| 00:18:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And I am looking carefully at |
| 00:18:55 | Mistress Fria - Howard | what's about to eat Pete. |
| 00:18:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Or smash his head in |
| 00:18:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | or impale him on a spear. |
| 00:19:02 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Only out of professional interest. |
| 00:19:05 | Jestix - Tim | Not that he'll stop it in any way. |
| 00:19:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Well, I might call it out. |
| 00:19:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I've forwarded him a little bit |
| 00:19:15 | Mistress Fria - Howard | of money to buy his extra kit. |
| 00:19:17 | Jestix - Tim | Cover the funeral expenses. |
| 00:19:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah. |
| 00:19:20 | GM - Dave | You can't quite see all of this bit, but |
| 00:19:23 | GM - Dave | I'm not going to bother spending time. |
| 00:19:25 | Mistress Fria - Howard | The pool of water looks interesting. |
| 00:19:28 | GM - Dave | Yeah, let me describe it in a second. |
| 00:19:29 | GM - Dave | You can't quite see into this room here. |
| 00:19:32 | GM - Dave | But I'm not going to bother cutting that bit off yet. |
| 00:19:35 | GM - Dave | You see a massive chamber filled |
| 00:19:37 | GM - Dave | with cobwebs and dust. |
| 00:19:38 | GM - Dave | A shallow pool 20 foot across |
| 00:19:40 | GM - Dave | lies in the middle of the room. |
| 00:19:42 | GM - Dave | With tall pillars to each, to the east of it. |
| 00:19:45 | GM - Dave | Each carved with a tall beautiful woman. |
| 00:19:49 | GM - Dave | The ceiling is vaulted. |
| 00:19:50 | GM - Dave | A crescent moon has been |
| 00:19:52 | GM - Dave | painted at the highest point. |
| 00:19:53 | GM - Dave | Which leads directly, which is |
| 00:19:57 | GM - Dave | directly above the pool. |
| 00:19:59 | GM - Dave | Through the paint is chipped. |
| 00:20:00 | GM - Dave | It still remains a peculiar lustre that |
| 00:20:03 | GM - Dave | reflects light with a glistening glow. |
| 00:20:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Not a peculiar lustre. |
| 00:20:09 | GM - Dave | The walls sport a few empty sconces. |
| 00:20:13 | GM - Dave | And you see an imposing set of |
| 00:20:14 | GM - Dave | bronze doors in the eastern wall. |
| 00:20:18 | GM - Dave | The double doors bear the image of |
| 00:20:20 | GM - Dave | winged horses rearing majestically. |
| 00:20:24 | GM - Dave | So that's, the double doors are there. |
| 00:20:26 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Could be interesting. |
| 00:20:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Worth a check out. |
| 00:20:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I, for the sake of argument, |
| 00:20:34 | Mistress Fria - Howard | unhitch my crossbow. |
| 00:20:39 | GM - Dave | Okay. |
| 00:20:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And just sort of, what do you think guys? |
| 00:20:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Dangerous? |
| 00:20:46 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Should we be ready? |
| 00:20:48 | Lómeril - Pete | Everywhere is dangerous. |
| 00:20:50 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, let's get, let's get, okay. |
| 00:20:53 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll cover you with the crossbow. |
| 00:20:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | You Check out the pool. |
| 00:20:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, let's search the room. |
| 00:21:01 | Lómeril - Pete | Wait a second. |
| 00:21:02 | Lómeril - Pete | If I'm going to check the, check the pool first. |
| 00:21:04 | Lómeril - Pete | Tie a rope around my |
| 00:21:05 | Lómeril - Pete | waist and step, keep back. |
| 00:21:07 | Lómeril - Pete | Just in case it's something in the water. |
| 00:21:09 | Lómeril - Pete | It wants to snatch me in and drown me. |
| 00:21:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Well, good call. |
| 00:21:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I think I might have to ask the monk to do that. |
| 00:21:18 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Because there's no way I could pull you back. |
| 00:21:21 | Jestix - Tim | Damn, I thought it might be interesting |
| 00:21:23 | Jestix - Tim | to watch them both get pulled in. |
| 00:21:25 | GM - Dave | So you've tied a rope around Lómeril |
| 00:21:30 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah. |
| 00:21:31 | GM - Dave | Okay, so he's on a string like a dog. |
| 00:21:35 | GM - Dave | Lómeril, you can also a knowledge |
| 00:21:38 | GM - Dave | religion as you kind of get closer. |
| 00:21:41 | Lómeril - Pete | 16. |
| 00:21:43 | GM - Dave | Okay, you recognise the moon symbol |
| 00:21:47 | GM - Dave | and the pillars of the goddess of the moon. |
| 00:21:53 | GM - Dave | Glarias. |
| 00:21:56 | GM - Dave | She's a minor and mostly dead cult. |
| 00:22:02 | Mistress Fria - Howard | As in the cult of the dead? |
| 00:22:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Or a, she's almost extinct. |
| 00:22:09 | GM - Dave | Very few people follow her any more. |
| 00:22:11 | GM - Dave | There's a raised lip around the edge of the pool. |
| 00:22:15 | GM - Dave | As you get closer, it looks to be about |
| 00:22:17 | GM - Dave | a foot deep and beautifully clear. |
| 00:22:19 | Lómeril - Pete | See if there's anything at |
| 00:22:21 | Lómeril - Pete | the bottom of the pool. |
| 00:22:22 | GM - Dave | Seems to be empty. |
| 00:22:26 | GM - Dave | From your initial scan. |
| 00:22:29 | Lómeril - Pete | All right. |
| 00:22:31 | GM - Dave | Have you lot followed up? |
| 00:22:34 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm staying where I am and |
| 00:22:36 | Mistress Fria - Howard | covering them with my bow. |
| 00:22:39 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Or with my crossbow. |
| 00:22:43 | GM - Dave | Sorry, Pete? |
| 00:22:45 | Lómeril - Pete | If I don't see anything at the bottom |
| 00:22:46 | Lómeril - Pete | of the pool, then I'll splash |
| 00:22:48 | Lómeril - Pete | the water a bit with my sword. |
| 00:22:50 | Lómeril - Pete | Just to see if there's a monster, |
| 00:22:52 | Lómeril - Pete | water monster in there. |
| 00:22:55 | GM - Dave | No. |
| 00:22:56 | GM - Dave | The water does seem remarkably |
| 00:22:58 | GM - Dave | clean and pure though. |
| 00:23:00 | GM - Dave | Okay. |
| 00:23:01 | GM - Dave | Doesn't seem to be any drips |
| 00:23:03 | GM - Dave | from a ceiling or anything like that. |
| 00:23:08 | Lómeril - Pete | Built-in filtration unit. |
| 00:23:12 | GM - Dave | It looks like once upon a time |
| 00:23:15 | GM - Dave | this was quite a spiritual place. |
| 00:23:18 | Lómeril - Pete | It looks clear and I'll step back from the |
| 00:23:22 | Lómeril - Pete | pool and untie the rope from around my wrist. |
| 00:23:26 | Jestix - Tim | I'll roll it back up and put it in my backpack. |
| 00:23:31 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And I shall start exploring a little bit. |
| 00:23:35 | GM - Dave | Okay. See if you figure where you |
| 00:23:37 | GM - Dave | want to go, what you want to do. |
| 00:23:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm going to search gently around this way. |
| 00:23:44 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So, walls and, you know, just, yeah. |
| 00:23:47 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm going to walk around this way |
| 00:23:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | until kind of, yeah, a little bit further. |
| 00:23:55 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Wherever Black Hand is. |
| 00:23:57 | GM - Dave | Okay. You can take 10 on search rolls |
| 00:24:00 | GM - Dave | and basically just go there |
| 00:24:02 | GM - Dave | and see if there's anything there. |
| 00:24:05 | GM - Dave | Okay, or, so you could take two |
| 00:24:08 | GM - Dave | minutes to search each square. |
| 00:24:10 | GM - Dave | So basically you can walk around taking |
| 00:24:12 | GM - Dave | 10 at each square that you walk through. |
| 00:24:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll just take 10. |
| 00:24:15 | GM - Dave | Okay. So what would that be? |
| 00:24:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | 15. |
| 00:24:18 | GM - Dave | Okay. So where are you going to go? |
| 00:24:20 | GM - Dave | Just leave your figure out the sort |
| 00:24:22 | GM - Dave | of place you're going to go to. |
| 00:24:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I've moved it from, I've moved |
| 00:24:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | it from here, hang on. Is that, yep. |
| 00:24:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So two to here. |
| 00:24:34 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And now, sorry, my frame rate is quite low. |
| 00:24:37 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So I have to be a little bit, and |
| 00:24:39 | Mistress Fria - Howard | now I'm probably heading that way. |
| 00:24:41 | GM - Dave | Okay. So basically wandering around the wall. |
| 00:24:44 | GM - Dave | Yeah. |
| 00:24:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Keeping an eye on the other guys. |
| 00:24:48 | GM - Dave | Yeah. Okay. You found nothing so far. |
| 00:24:51 | GM - Dave | Pete, Tim, anything you want to do? |
| 00:24:54 | Jestix - Tim | Wander around the room. |
| 00:24:55 | Jestix - Tim | Have a look at the pillars. |
| 00:24:57 | GM - Dave | Okay. |
| 00:24:58 | Lómeril - Pete | I'm going to follow, follow the boss |
| 00:25:02 | Lómeril - Pete | since he's paying me to protect him. |
| 00:25:05 | GM - Dave | Yeah. |
| 00:25:06 | Lómeril - Pete | Sorry, she's paying me to protect her. |
| 00:25:08 | GM - Dave | So you're going to this pillar or this pillar, Tim? |
| 00:25:10 | Jestix - Tim | This one. |
| 00:25:11 | GM - Dave | That one. Okay. |
| 00:25:12 | GM - Dave | So you're following around. |
| 00:25:14 | GM - Dave | So I'm assuming you're going to |
| 00:25:16 | GM - Dave | continue going around the wall. |
| 00:25:17 | GM - Dave | Howard or going to go somewhere? |
| 00:25:18 | Mistress Fria - Howard | No, I'm happy that Tim's |
| 00:25:20 | Mistress Fria - Howard | kind of covering my flank. |
| 00:25:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I will continue in this sort of direction again. |
| 00:25:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, just cautiously have a look around. |
| 00:25:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It is, although I've got an air of |
| 00:25:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | confidence, this is my first dungeon. |
| 00:25:35 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Though it actually probably isn't |
| 00:25:37 | Mistress Fria - Howard | because I'm second level. |
| 00:25:38 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Or maybe I got to second level |
| 00:25:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | just sort of in pubs and bar fights. |
| 00:25:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | We kind of get this corridor bit down |
| 00:25:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | here, which I'm quite intrigued by. |
| 00:25:47 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Then there's big doors. |
| 00:25:48 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I was tempted by corridor |
| 00:25:50 | Mistress Fria - Howard | first and big doors, guys. |
| 00:25:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Jestix, if we go down here, could you |
| 00:25:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | just keep an eye, make sure nothing's going |
| 00:25:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | to sort of come hammering down behind us. |
| 00:25:58 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah |
| 00:25:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I will carefully make my way to this first door. |
| 00:26:02 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And when I get to the entrance to the corridor, |
| 00:26:06 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm going to just take 20 |
| 00:26:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and have a really good look. |
| 00:26:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Because corridors are much, |
| 00:26:11 | Mistress Fria - Howard | much easier to trap than big room. |
| 00:26:13 | GM - Dave | You know, I've got proper search |
| 00:26:15 | GM - Dave | check where you are. |
| 00:26:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, from here to the first door, |
| 00:26:18 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm going to take it bloody carefully. |
| 00:26:20 | GM - Dave | OK, so you're going to take 20 on that? |
| 00:26:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yes, please. |
| 00:26:25 | Mistress Fria - Howard | We're not in a hurry, as far as I know. |
| 00:26:28 | GM - Dave | OK, so your search is 5. |
| 00:26:31 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Do you want me, when I say 20, |
| 00:26:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | oh, take 20, you basically roll a 20, isn't it? |
| 00:26:37 | GM - Dave | Yeah, and the unfortunate thing is that you might |
| 00:26:41 | GM - Dave | automatically set a trap off if you take 20. |
| 00:26:44 | GM - Dave | It's when you detailed search, but |
| 00:26:46 | GM - Dave | if you've got a trap detection. |
| 00:26:48 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Um, yeah, I think I'm a rogue |
| 00:26:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I don't advertise the fact that I'm a rogue. |
| 00:26:53 | GM - Dave | Yeah, you don't set up a trap, but |
| 00:26:55 | GM - Dave | an ordinary person would. |
| 00:26:57 | GM - Dave | OK, so you basically do a |
| 00:26:59 | GM - Dave | detailed search of that area. |
| 00:27:01 | GM - Dave | What you do find is just about there, |
| 00:27:05 | GM - Dave | there is this concealed door. |
| 00:27:07 | GM - Dave | Somewhere just about there, there's a concealed |
| 00:27:09 | GM - Dave | door, but you don't find a trap in any of this area. |
| 00:27:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I take my time and I go down here. |
| 00:27:15 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That's where I'm aiming to get to, |
| 00:27:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | assuming I don't find any traps or anything or |
| 00:27:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | anything or die if I don't find the door. |
| 00:27:21 | GM - Dave | About where there? |
| 00:27:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | About here. |
| 00:27:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll just search that door just to |
| 00:27:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | double check that there's nothing. |
| 00:27:29 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And is there a way of opening it? |
| 00:27:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Does it have a handle or whatever? |
| 00:27:35 | GM - Dave | You can just push it in. |
| 00:27:36 | GM - Dave | But before we do that, you've been |
| 00:27:38 | GM - Dave | looking at this column. |
| 00:27:39 | GM - Dave | The room's very big and you've got |
| 00:27:41 | GM - Dave | a gigantic kind of beautiful carved woman column. |
| 00:27:46 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Ay caramba. |
| 00:27:47 | GM - Dave | Yeah. Is there anything else you want to do? |
| 00:27:51 | Jestix - Tim | See if there are any marks on the ground |
| 00:27:54 | Jestix - Tim | near the pillars to indicate it might move. |
| 00:27:56 | GM - Dave | You search around. |
| 00:27:58 | GM - Dave | You've got quite a bit of time while |
| 00:27:59 | GM - Dave | Howard's doing all this. |
| 00:28:01 | GM - Dave | You don't find anything. |
| 00:28:02 | Jestix - Tim | OK, in which case I'll go and look |
| 00:28:03 | Jestix - Tim | at the other pillar. |
| 00:28:04 | GM - Dave | Howard, it's quite easy for you to open the door. |
| 00:28:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | OK, whether I want to or not. |
| 00:28:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | OK, I heft my bow again and |
| 00:28:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I turn to Pete's character. |
| 00:28:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Lómeril, handle's there. |
| 00:28:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I've checked for traps to the best of my ability. |
| 00:28:26 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I suggest you heft one sword in |
| 00:28:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | one hand, open it in the other. |
| 00:28:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll cover you with a crossbow and we go in. |
| 00:28:34 | Mistress Fria - Howard | By the way, can you see the door? |
| 00:28:37 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Now I've pointed it out for you. |
| 00:28:38 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Good call. |
| 00:28:40 | GM - Dave | I actually did roll for you, Pete. |
| 00:28:41 | GM - Dave | You didn't see the secret door. |
| 00:28:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Well, I pointed it out and I stand |
| 00:28:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | back a little bit just so I can… |
| 00:28:48 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm out of your way. |
| 00:28:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Hang on, let me just do that. |
| 00:28:51 | GM - Dave | Right, so you went to the door, yeah? |
| 00:28:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll call for… |
| 00:28:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Jestix, secret door if you're interested. |
| 00:28:56 | Jestix - Tim | OK, I wonder if they're doing |
| 00:28:58 | Jestix - Tim | something interesting. |
| 00:28:59 | GM - Dave | OK, corridor, leading north. |
| 00:29:01 | Lómeril - Pete | What do you reckon, privy? |
| 00:29:02 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh yeah, OK, wait 10 seconds and then we… |
| 00:29:06 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Just to see if anything happens. |
| 00:29:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And then I shall proceed |
| 00:29:11 | Mistress Fria - Howard | gently into it searching. |
| 00:29:13 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So I'll go ahead and search and |
| 00:29:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | if anything happens, bail me out. |
| 00:29:19 | GM - Dave | If you're taking 20, searching all up |
| 00:29:21 | GM - Dave | here is going to take you quite a bit. |
| 00:29:23 | GM - Dave | So it'll be about 10 minutes searching. |
| 00:29:25 | GM - Dave | Yeah, Jestix, do you want to have a look? |
| 00:29:27 | GM - Dave | But you do find a concealed door there. |
| 00:29:31 | Mistress Fria - Howard | OK, right, kind of here. |
| 00:29:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh yeah, kind of where I expected |
| 00:29:35 | Mistress Fria - Howard | there to be a concealed door. |
| 00:29:38 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Excellent, OK, check it. |
| 00:29:41 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Well, I assume I've taken 20. |
| 00:29:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I check it and we do the same thing. |
| 00:29:47 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Lómeril, to the honour’s again. |
| 00:29:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | What are you, brother Lómeril? |
| 00:29:51 | Lómeril - Pete | Oh, just Lómeril. |
| 00:29:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So, Mr Lómeril, if you please. |
| 00:29:56 | Lómeril - Pete | OK, open the door. |
| 00:29:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Mr Jestix, are you joining us? |
| 00:29:59 | Jestix - Tim | I am, but I'm being cautious. |
| 00:30:03 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Understandable, always wise |
| 00:30:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | have someone at the back. |
| 00:30:06 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I suggest if you hear me screaming |
| 00:30:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | that we need help. |
| 00:30:09 | Lómeril - Pete | Blimey, it's a labyrinth. |
| 00:30:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I think so far it shouldn't be too |
| 00:30:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | hard for us to find our way out. |
| 00:30:13 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I start, I get out my pen, my |
| 00:30:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | parchment ink, and quite small. |
| 00:30:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I start taking a few notes as to |
| 00:30:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | the general layout and topology |
| 00:30:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | in case we need to find our way out. |
| 00:30:26 | GM - Dave | That's a good plan, Howard. |
| 00:30:29 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Once he's gone in and there's no |
| 00:30:31 | Mistress Fria - Howard | fighting, I shall follow him in. |
| 00:30:34 | GM - Dave | There is going to be people in this room, |
| 00:30:36 | GM - Dave | so that door is open, by the way. |
| 00:30:38 | GM - Dave | There are some people standing around |
| 00:30:39 | GM - Dave | here, which I shall fill in in a second. |
| 00:30:42 | GM - Dave | Yeah, it's a big room. You can see in front of you |
| 00:30:44 | Jestix - Tim | A hobgoblin, an orc, |
| 00:30:46 | Jestix - Tim | A Neanderthal and a bugbear. |
| 00:30:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh, that'll be all right then. |
| 00:30:50 | GM - Dave | When everyone's there, we can have |
| 00:30:52 | GM - Dave | some spot rolls to see if anyone can act. |
| 00:30:55 | GM - Dave | Okay, this orc is not paying any |
| 00:30:57 | GM - Dave | attention to you guys at all. |
| 00:31:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | My spot roll is 16, natural, 19 overall. |
| 00:31:06 | GM - Dave | Yeah, you basically are not surprised. |
| 00:31:09 | GM - Dave | Okay, she's looking at you, bugbear is |
| 00:31:11 | GM - Dave | looking in your direction, and |
| 00:31:13 | GM - Dave | hobgoblin and the orc are not. |
| 00:31:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Shoot the one who's looking in our direction. |
| 00:31:18 | GM - Dave | Okay, so I need spot rolls from you. |
| 00:31:23 | GM - Dave | Howard is… |
| 00:31:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I rolled a 19. |
| 00:31:28 | GM - Dave | Lorimer, so you're currently flat-footed. Tim? |
| 00:31:34 | Jestix - Tim | 12. |
| 00:31:35 | GM - Dave | Okay, you're flat-footed at the moment. |
| 00:31:36 | GM - Dave | So Fria and the Neanderthal lady and |
| 00:31:40 | GM - Dave | the bugbear, they get to act first. |
| 00:31:42 | GM - Dave | He basically shouts at this lot, get them boys! |
| 00:31:46 | GM - Dave | The beast god wants their blood! |
| 00:31:50 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Shout that much? |
| 00:31:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I haven't even pulled my trigger yet! |
| 00:31:54 | GM - Dave | Lasher the Neanderthal, she'll charge |
| 00:31:57 | GM - Dave | towards Pete's character. |
| 00:31:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Is there an initiative? |
| 00:32:00 | GM - Dave | I'm sorry, roll initiative, you're flat-footed anyway. |
| 00:32:02 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So 17, I'm quite early in the game. |
| 00:32:06 | GM - Dave | Okay, actually you go first, Howard, |
| 00:32:08 | GM - Dave | assuming the bugbear shouts at you. |
| 00:32:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Shouts at Pete, probably. |
| 00:32:13 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm tiny and behind him. |
| 00:32:14 | GM - Dave | Starts to move towards you, |
| 00:32:16 | GM - Dave | what are you going to do? |
| 00:32:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Um, shoot him. |
| 00:32:20 | GM - Dave | Currently there's a wall in the way, but… |
| 00:32:23 | Mistress Fria - Howard | He's kicking the door, I'm round the corner. |
| 00:32:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | There's a subtlety of placement that is lacking. |
| 00:32:32 | GM - Dave | So you're at minus 4 because you're |
| 00:32:34 | GM - Dave | basically shooting through combat. |
| 00:32:36 | GM - Dave | And he's got cover of another minus 4. |
| 00:32:39 | GM - Dave | He's got cover? |
| 00:32:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I have cover, I'm shooting through a door. |
| 00:32:43 | GM - Dave | He's got the same cover as you've got. |
| 00:32:45 | Jestix - Tim | He's in another room. |
| 00:32:47 | Jestix - Tim | If you're shooting the bugbear, you're going |
| 00:32:50 | Jestix - Tim | across this room and into the room beyond. |
| 00:32:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh, sorry, bugbear. |
| 00:32:55 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I thought the bugbear was |
| 00:32:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | the Lesher Neanderthal. |
| 00:32:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Who's the one who can |
| 00:33:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | actually see and react? |
| 00:33:02 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Who's the one that's actually reacting best? |
| 00:33:04 | GM - Dave | He's the one who shouted, and this is |
| 00:33:07 | GM - Dave | is the lady that's moving towards you now. |
| 00:33:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm afraid my frame rate is not… |
| 00:33:11 | Mistress Fria - Howard | The Neanderthal is the lady? |
| 00:33:13 | GM - Dave | Yes. |
| 00:33:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll shoot the Neanderthal. |
| 00:33:15 | GM - Dave | Okay, so you can do that without any negatives. |
| 00:33:20 | GM - Dave | Plus 3, I think. |
| 00:33:23 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Okay, thank you, Dave. |
| 00:33:25 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Glad someone knows the rules. |
| 00:33:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Comes at my range. |
| 00:33:29 | Mistress Fria - Howard | This is this. 14 plus three, 17 to hit. |
| 00:33:32 | GM - Dave | Solid hit. |
| 00:33:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | There's a d6 damage. Only 3. |
| 00:33:36 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Neanderthal, she is slightly pissed off. |
| 00:33:38 | GM - Dave | She will be next to go. |
| 00:33:41 | GM - Dave | Move 4 squares. |
| 00:33:43 | GM - Dave | So she will easily get to where you and Pete are. |
| 00:33:47 | GM - Dave | I would imagine Pete was actually |
| 00:33:49 | GM - Dave | the one right in the doorway. |
| 00:33:51 | GM - Dave | So she will actually hit you, Pete. |
| 00:33:55 | GM - Dave | She would be there. |
| 00:33:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, fighting through the doorway is perfect. |
| 00:34:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That's kind of… |
| 00:34:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That way they can't gang up on us. |
| 00:34:03 | GM - Dave | Going to hit you with her club. |
| 00:34:05 | Lómeril - Pete | She's going to attack me with her club. |
| 00:34:07 | GM - Dave | With her great club, she misses you. |
| 00:34:10 | GM - Dave | She misses you, and that'll be |
| 00:34:12 | GM - Dave | the end of the round. |
| 00:34:13 | GM - Dave | So it's an initiative for everybody else. |
| 00:34:15 | GM - Dave | I believe Pete, you'd already rolled. |
| 00:34:17 | Lómeril - Pete | 2. |
| 00:34:18 | GM - Dave | Right at the end of the round. Tim? |
| 00:34:20 | Jestix - Tim | 19. |
| 00:34:21 | GM - Dave | You're right at the beginning of the round. |
| 00:34:23 | Jestix - Tim | Also, I have a dog. |
| 00:34:25 | GM - Dave | Yes, you can roll your dog separately, or |
| 00:34:26 | GM - Dave | you can go on your own if you want. |
| 00:34:28 | Jestix - Tim | I'll go on my own, because it makes it easier. |
| 00:34:31 | GM - Dave | Okay, so Tim goes first. |
| 00:34:34 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah, so I will move down the room to the door. |
| 00:34:38 | Jestix - Tim | Can't get out. |
| 00:34:38 | GM - Dave | Can't go through Lómeril. |
| 00:34:41 | GM - Dave | Because Neanderthal's in the way. |
| 00:34:45 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah, and I'm not going to go through Lómeril. |
| 00:34:47 | Jestix - Tim | But I'm hoping either Lómeril will |
| 00:34:49 | Jestix - Tim | fight his way out, or he'll succumb. |
| 00:34:51 | GM - Dave | So you basically move up, then it's Fria again. |
| 00:34:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Are there any disadvantages to kind |
| 00:34:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | of shooting the Neanderthal again? |
| 00:35:02 | GM - Dave | You're now at minus 4. |
| 00:35:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm going to set off a ghost sound |
| 00:35:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | of men charging in from the far |
| 00:35:13 | Mistress Fria - Howard | end, in order to distract everyone. |
| 00:35:15 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So ghost sound of men charging in from here. |
| 00:35:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Get them, lads! |
| 00:35:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So that they're all distracted. |
| 00:35:22 | GM - Dave | That's a good idea. |
| 00:35:23 | GM - Dave | Yelling from here. |
| 00:35:25 | GM - Dave | Cantrip, do they get a saving throw |
| 00:35:27 | GM - Dave | against it or anything like that? |
| 00:35:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Probably, yeah. |
| 00:35:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Even the Neanderthal might have to |
| 00:35:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | look over her shoulder and give our beloved |
| 00:35:35 | Mistress Fria - Howard | fighter an attack of opportunity or something. |
| 00:35:38 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Lose an attack, if perhaps. |
| 00:35:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Maybe the best, I'm hoping. |
| 00:35:42 | GM - Dave | Okay, so some kind of illusionary |
| 00:35:43 | GM - Dave | sounds of combat. Is that what you're saying? |
| 00:35:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | No, illusory sounds of charge, |
| 00:35:48 | Mistress Fria - Howard | of the rest of the party |
| 00:35:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | ambushing them from the side. |
| 00:35:53 | GM - Dave | You would have to have had line of sight |
| 00:35:55 | GM - Dave | to do it all the way down there, Howard. |
| 00:35:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh, that end, over there somewhere. |
| 00:36:00 | GM - Dave | Yes, but I will allow it to be from |
| 00:36:01 | GM - Dave | over here somewhere. |
| 00:36:02 | GM - Dave | Most people wouldn't be able |
| 00:36:04 | GM - Dave | to tell the difference anyway. |
| 00:36:05 | GM - Dave | So you make some kind of people |
| 00:36:07 | GM - Dave | running towards them. Perfectly reasonable. |
| 00:36:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yelling and shouting, a distraction, a charge. |
| 00:36:13 | GM - Dave | I think it's perfectly reasonable that they |
| 00:36:15 | GM - Dave | would actually look in that direction. |
| 00:36:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, they're experienced monsters. |
| 00:36:20 | Mistress Fria - Howard | They're, oh shit, we're being ambushed. |
| 00:36:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | They might not disbelieve it until |
| 00:36:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | they look over and see nothing. |
| 00:36:25 | Mistress Fria - Howard | But they've looked over and saw nothing. |
| 00:36:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And they lose something. That costs. |
| 00:36:29 | GM - Dave | Okay. I'll bear that in mind for a second. |
| 00:36:31 | GM - Dave | So the folk bear will come out of the room. |
| 00:36:35 | GM - Dave | And he will look in that general direction. |
| 00:36:37 | GM - Dave | What is the noise coming from that way? |
| 00:36:39 | GM - Dave | And he shouts, come on, |
| 00:36:40 | GM - Dave | boys, come and get them. |
| 00:36:41 | GM - Dave | The orc will go. |
| 00:36:43 | GM - Dave | He looks down that direction. |
| 00:36:45 | GM - Dave | I would say that he is distracted by that. |
| 00:36:48 | GM - Dave | Hobgoblin also will look round and |
| 00:36:51 | GM - Dave | shouts, come on, boys, as well. |
| 00:36:53 | GM - Dave | She is not distracted. |
| 00:36:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | She's in the thick of fighting |
| 00:36:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and trying not to get killed. |
| 00:36:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That seems fair. |
| 00:37:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So I have distracted three of them. |
| 00:37:02 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And they're not attacking us for a round. |
| 00:37:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll live with that for a town cantrip. |
| 00:37:07 | GM - Dave | So that would then be Pete's character. |
| 00:37:10 | Lómeril - Pete | Right, try and hit her, missed. |
| 00:37:13 | GM - Dave | Start back with beginning of the round. |
| 00:37:15 | GM - Dave | And it's Tim's character. |
| 00:37:16 | Jestix - Tim | You can do nothing. |
| 00:37:18 | GM - Dave | Yeah, so it's you. And you've got -1. |
| 00:37:20 | GM - Dave | Have a strength of -1. |
| 00:37:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, I'm crap at this. |
| 00:37:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Say, in quiet terms, if you step |
| 00:37:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | we can all three attack her. Mr Lómeril. |
| 00:37:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Meanwhile, I try and stab her leg. That's a 4. |
| 00:37:34 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Unless she's absolutely crap. I miss. |
| 00:37:37 | GM - Dave | That's a complete miss. |
| 00:37:39 | GM - Dave | Right, so next to go the bugbear |
| 00:37:42 | GM - Dave | Right, who screams down the corridor. |
| 00:37:44 | GM - Dave | Where the frig am I, man? |
| 00:37:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | We're all bluffing each other. |
| 00:37:47 | GM - Dave | And he shouts at the orc, get in there, mate. |
| 00:37:50 | GM - Dave | What are you doing? For the blood god. |
| 00:37:53 | GM - Dave | He heads towards the passage way. |
| 00:37:56 | GM - Dave | Hobgoblin will also join in the fight. |
| 00:37:58 | GM - Dave | But they're not actually going to fight you. |
| 00:38:01 | GM - Dave | Then it would be… Pete again. |
| 00:38:03 | Jestix - Tim | Oh, she didn't attack Pete. |
| 00:38:04 | GM - Dave | You're quite right. |
| 00:38:05 | GM - Dave | I completely forgot about her. |
| 00:38:07 | GM - Dave | Come here, my lovely, she says to you. |
| 00:38:09 | GM - Dave | 12 misses you. |
| 00:38:10 | GM - Dave | She stands almost no chance of hitting you, Pete. |
| 00:38:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Mr. Jestix, do you wish to have |
| 00:38:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | my vantage point? |
| 00:38:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Or are you okay there? |
| 00:38:17 | Jestix - Tim | I'm okay. I'll probably do more |
| 00:38:18 | Jestix - Tim | damage if I do hit, didn't you? |
| 00:38:20 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Undoubtedly. With this tiny dagger, I'm crap. |
| 00:38:23 | GM - Dave | Okay, Pete, short gun. |
| 00:38:24 | Lómeril - Pete | 18 |
| 00:38:26 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh, fantastic stuff. |
| 00:38:27 | GM - Dave | Oh, he's a definite hit. |
| 00:38:29 | Mistress Fria - Howard | He's warming up. |
| 00:38:32 | GM - Dave | 8 points. Oh, she goes down. So she's dead. |
| 00:38:35 | GM - Dave | Would be the beginning of the round. |
| 00:38:37 | GM - Dave | And now it's Jestix. |
| 00:38:39 | GM - Dave | You can go straight through your comrade |
| 00:38:42 | GM - Dave | into the attacks of opportunity from |
| 00:38:44 | GM - Dave | these two, if you wish. |
| 00:38:46 | Jestix - Tim | I will try and tumble past them. |
| 00:38:48 | GM - Dave | So you'd end up right in the middle of them. |
| 00:38:50 | Jestix - Tim | Okay, so I won't tumble through them. |
| 00:38:51 | GM - Dave | So you'll stay where you are. |
| 00:38:53 | GM - Dave | You can just delay if you want, Pete. |
| 00:38:55 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah, I'll delay. |
| 00:38:55 | Jestix - Tim | If things move forward a bit, then |
| 00:38:58 | Jestix - Tim | I might be able to step in. |
| 00:39:00 | GM - Dave | Okay, so now it will be Howard Fria. |
| 00:39:02 | GM - Dave | I want you to also tumble past them. |
| 00:39:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Sure, I really want to. |
| 00:39:06 | GM - Dave | But it would be very brave for you. |
| 00:39:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So Griff is an orc, isn't he? |
| 00:39:11 | Mistress Fria - Howard | He's nothing special. |
| 00:39:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | He doesn't look great. |
| 00:39:15 | GM - Dave | He looks quite large, yes. |
| 00:39:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I only have one offensive. |
| 00:39:20 | Mistress Fria - Howard | My colour spray, I use it rarely. |
| 00:39:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Is there anywhere you get |
| 00:39:23 | Mistress Fria - Howard | more than one of them? |
| 00:39:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Like the orc and the bugbear? |
| 00:39:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It's a cone-shaped burst. |
| 00:39:30 | GM - Dave | No, not really. |
| 00:39:31 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, they're kind of not really lined up. |
| 00:39:33 | GM - Dave | They're not really lined up for |
| 00:39:35 | GM - Dave | you to get them in a cone. |
| 00:39:36 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Okay, I'm just going to give it a |
| 00:39:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | bit of a stabby, stabby moment. |
| 00:39:43 | GM - Dave | Don't have reach on the orc. |
| 00:39:46 | GM - Dave | You could probably have a stab |
| 00:39:47 | GM - Dave | against the hobgoblin just. |
| 00:39:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, okay. As the hobgoblin |
| 00:39:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | approaches, stab the little fucker. |
| 00:39:53 | GM - Dave | Yeah, but you'd be -4. So d20 -1. -5. |
| 00:39:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Okay, d20 -5 incoming. Nope. |
| 00:40:02 | GM - Dave | No, not with a 2, you're not. |
| 00:40:04 | GM - Dave | So next it will be the bugbear who basically |
| 00:40:08 | GM - Dave | turns back round towards these guys. |
| 00:40:11 | GM - Dave | Get them, lads! Stop being so cowardly. |
| 00:40:15 | GM - Dave | The blood god demands that you kill them. |
| 00:40:18 | GM - Dave | Don't let them get into our temple. |
| 00:40:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | They might loot it. Yeah. |
| 00:40:23 | GM - Dave | Okay, so basically he spends his action |
| 00:40:25 | GM - Dave | trying to persuade these lots to get you. |
| 00:40:28 | GM - Dave | Then it will be the orc who will step |
| 00:40:32 | GM - Dave | into the hole and quite gladly… |
| 00:40:35 | Ahumstut - James | Oh, it's an attack of opportunity. |
| 00:40:37 | GM - Dave | Yeah, because he stepped into your field to fire. |
| 00:40:43 | GM - Dave | Yeah, your attack area. So which roll, Pete? |
| 00:40:46 | Lómeril - Pete | 11. |
| 00:40:46 | GM - Dave | 11's not enough. So he will then attack you. |
| 00:40:49 | GM - Dave | Not hardly armoured at all. Oh, he rolled a 2. |
| 00:40:53 | GM - Dave | So he completely misses you, Pete. |
| 00:40:56 | GM - Dave | It's the hobgoblin. |
| 00:40:57 | GM - Dave | Will now try to stick you around the corner. |
| 00:40:59 | GM - Dave | Okay, he tries to stick you with his longsword. |
| 00:41:02 | GM - Dave | Getting an 11. |
| 00:41:04 | GM - Dave | No, not even worth working out the modifiers. |
| 00:41:06 | GM - Dave | Right, so that was the hobgoblin. |
| 00:41:09 | GM - Dave | Now it would be Pete. |
| 00:41:12 | Lómeril - Pete | 18. |
| 00:41:13 | GM - Dave | Yes, you quite easily hit him. |
| 00:41:15 | Lómeril - Pete | 3 points of damage. |
| 00:41:17 | GM - Dave | Okay. Beginning of next round. |
| 00:41:21 | GM - Dave | I assume, Tim, you're not going |
| 00:41:22 | GM - Dave | to do anything, Fria? |
| 00:41:23 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll stab, but I should also say, Mr. Lómeril, |
| 00:41:26 | Mistress Fria - Howard | if you take a step back, then perhaps |
| 00:41:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | we can get two against one with |
| 00:41:35 | Mistress Fria - Howard | you and Mr. Jestix's attacking |
| 00:41:37 | Mistress Fria - Howard | whoever steps into the door. |
| 00:41:39 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I am verbose. |
| 00:41:41 | Jestix - Tim | That just means you take |
| 00:41:42 | Jestix - Tim | even longer to say things. |
| 00:41:43 | GM - Dave | He's going to go on delay. So the orc. |
| 00:41:47 | GM - Dave | The orc will swipe at you again, Pete. |
| 00:41:49 | GM - Dave | Going to roll a 16 this time. |
| 00:41:52 | GM - Dave | He might actually hit you as he's got plus 4. 20. |
| 00:41:55 | GM - Dave | That will actually be a hit this time. |
| 00:41:57 | GM - Dave | That'll be 8 points of damage. |
| 00:41:59 | Lómeril - Pete | Ouch. |
| 00:42:00 | GM - Dave | Okay, so that was the hobgoblin. No, the orc. |
| 00:42:05 | GM - Dave | So the hobgoblin goes next against you, Pete. |
| 00:42:07 | GM - Dave | But this time he's at -4. Oh, it just rolled off a 20. |
| 00:42:12 | GM - Dave | Oh well. Pete, you'll go. |
| 00:42:13 | Lómeril - Pete | 17. |
| 00:42:15 | GM - Dave | 17 hits the orc. |
| 00:42:17 | Lómeril - Pete | 8 points back. |
| 00:42:18 | GM - Dave | That kills him. |
| 00:42:20 | GM - Dave | And then it's back to around the |
| 00:42:21 | GM - Dave | beginning of the round. |
| 00:42:22 | GM - Dave | And now it's Jestix's again. |
| 00:42:24 | GM - Dave | Pete, did you move back? |
| 00:42:27 | Lómeril - Pete | Could I have moved back with that attack? |
| 00:42:30 | GM - Dave | Yes, you can do that. |
| 00:42:31 | Lómeril - Pete | Please. |
| 00:42:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | We want multiple attacks as they… |
| 00:42:36 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah, so effectively you've got |
| 00:42:38 | Jestix - Tim | the three around the doorway. |
| 00:42:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah. |
| 00:42:41 | GM - Dave | Okay, so something like that. |
| 00:42:44 | GM - Dave | So beginning of the next round, the bugbear |
| 00:42:46 | GM - Dave | will move up and stand here. |
| 00:42:51 | GM - Dave | And next to go will be Fria. |
| 00:42:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Kind of looking around the corner if I can. |
| 00:42:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, so obviously it's getting |
| 00:42:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | a bit busy in there. |
| 00:43:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So if I can't… |
| 00:43:02 | GM - Dave | You can't really see anybody at the moment. |
| 00:43:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | In which case I am picking up |
| 00:43:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | my crossbow and reloading. |
| 00:43:08 | GM - Dave | The hobgoblin basically is next to |
| 00:43:10 | GM - Dave | go and he will step into the hole. |
| 00:43:13 | GM - Dave | Allowing both you three to attack him. |
| 00:43:16 | GM - Dave | He doesn't move into your attack or opportunity |
| 00:43:19 | GM - Dave | because you have to move across or out of it. |
| 00:43:21 | GM - Dave | So he just will attack. Yeah, but it's |
| 00:43:24 | GM - Dave | not moving into an attack area. It's moving. |
| 00:43:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It's moving out. |
| 00:43:28 | GM - Dave | It's moving across it or out of it. |
| 00:43:30 | GM - Dave | And they haven't moved. |
| 00:43:32 | GM - Dave | Fria's probably the only one |
| 00:43:34 | GM - Dave | who is actually threatening. |
| 00:43:36 | Mistress Fria - Howard | All I could do is slash with a dagger. |
| 00:43:38 | GM - Dave | Yes, so Fria gets without a -4 a threat. |
| 00:43:41 | GM - Dave | sorry, an attack of opportunity. |
| 00:43:44 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Moved from almost no chance |
| 00:43:46 | Mistress Fria - Howard | to pretty much no chance. |
| 00:43:49 | GM - Dave | I hate the attack of opportunity rules in D&D. |
| 00:43:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Here they come. It's not huge. |
| 00:43:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It's a 15 minus one. |
| 00:43:58 | GM - Dave | 14. |
| 00:43:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | 14. |
| 00:44:00 | GM - Dave | Unfortunately it's got a higher armour |
| 00:44:02 | GM - Dave | class and it's got a 16. |
| 00:44:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Fairly heavily armoured. |
| 00:44:06 | Mistress Fria - Howard | But then I'm attacking an |
| 00:44:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | armoured thing with a dagger. |
| 00:44:09 | GM - Dave | Okay, so he will then attack probably |
| 00:44:12 | GM - Dave | Pete because in reality Pete |
| 00:44:14 | GM - Dave | was the one following up. |
| 00:44:17 | GM - Dave | And I don't seem to roll high, do I? |
| 00:44:20 | GM - Dave | Too low to care was the problem. |
| 00:44:23 | GM - Dave | Next is Pete. |
| 00:44:26 | Jestix - Tim | I was holding my action. |
| 00:44:28 | GM - Dave | Yes, you were. So you can go. |
| 00:44:29 | Jestix - Tim | 13, not enough. |
| 00:44:30 | Lómeril - Pete | Hit. 4 points of damage. |
| 00:44:33 | GM - Dave | Pete did 3 damage. He's still there. |
| 00:44:35 | GM - Dave | Okay, so beginning of next round |
| 00:44:37 | GM - Dave | and it's back to Tim again. |
| 00:44:39 | GM - Dave | Whomp him, Mr. Jestix. |
| 00:44:41 | Jestix - Tim | 9. Miss. |
| 00:44:42 | GM - Dave | Followed by Fria. |
| 00:44:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Shooting. Am I? Have I got a shot? |
| 00:44:46 | GM - Dave | No, because you put your crossbow down. |
| 00:44:49 | Jestix - Tim | But you then have an attack of opportunity. |
| 00:44:51 | Jestix - Tim | You can't have it both ways. |
| 00:44:53 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Ah, I wouldn't have done the attack |
| 00:44:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | of opportunity if I thought it was, I think. |
| 00:44:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I thought I was just have a slash |
| 00:45:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | whilst doing what I wanted to. |
| 00:45:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I didn't realise I was going to lose it. |
| 00:45:09 | GM - Dave | You could have spent a move |
| 00:45:11 | GM - Dave | action to put it down. |
| 00:45:14 | GM - Dave | So you put it back on, yeah? |
| 00:45:15 | GM - Dave | But you chose to use a free action which |
| 00:45:18 | GM - Dave | basically meant you dropped it. |
| 00:45:19 | GM - Dave | Yeah, if you try to pick it up, the hobgoblin |
| 00:45:23 | GM - Dave | has an attack of opportunity against you. |
| 00:45:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | In which case I shall just have |
| 00:45:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | to fight on with my dagger. |
| 00:45:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That's a 12. Not enough. |
| 00:45:34 | GM - Dave | The bugbear will just go on delay. |
| 00:45:38 | GM - Dave | Hobgoblin will attack Pete. |
| 00:45:40 | GM - Dave | There does seem to be a certain amount |
| 00:45:42 | GM - Dave | of frothing at the mouth from |
| 00:45:43 | GM - Dave | these guys, by the way, guys. |
| 00:45:45 | GM - Dave | And not that Pete's character has been in |
| 00:45:47 | GM - Dave | an awful lot of tactical situations in real life. |
| 00:45:50 | GM - Dave | But he does think that they |
| 00:45:52 | GM - Dave | don't seem to care much. |
| 00:45:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | They wanted to die for the blood god. |
| 00:45:57 | GM - Dave | Yeah, he's plus 2 to hit and he's got |
| 00:46:01 | GM - Dave | another plus 1. But it's not |
| 00:46:02 | GM - Dave | nowhere near enough. |
| 00:46:03 | GM - Dave | Okay, lucky for you. |
| 00:46:05 | Jestix - Tim | This is and then Pete attempts to hit him back. |
| 00:46:09 | Lómeril - Pete | Yeah, missed. |
| 00:46:10 | GM - Dave | Next round, Tim. |
| 00:46:12 | Jestix - Tim | Getting slowly worse. |
| 00:46:14 | GM - Dave | Okay, there's a complete miss. |
| 00:46:16 | GM - Dave | Fria, you can try to stab him. |
| 00:46:18 | Mistress Fria - Howard | No absolute miss. |
| 00:46:21 | GM - Dave | Your character, Howard, wants to either |
| 00:46:25 | GM - Dave | be on the opposite side of Pete to get |
| 00:46:27 | GM - Dave | the rogue speciality or be a distance away |
| 00:46:30 | GM - Dave | away so you can use your crossbow or spells. |
| 00:46:33 | GM - Dave | Two places where you could be advantageous. |
| 00:46:36 | GM - Dave | This wasn't, for you, not the best place to be. |
| 00:46:39 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, it's where I ended up. |
| 00:46:41 | Mistress Fria - Howard | But yes, in which case I shall move. |
| 00:46:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | If I move, it doesn't give any more. |
| 00:46:46 | Jestix - Tim | If you move, it gives a tactical opportunity. |
| 00:46:49 | GM - Dave | Yeah, that's the way the rules work, unfortunately. |
| 00:46:52 | GM - Dave | So you're stuck where you are, just |
| 00:46:54 | GM - Dave | fighting for your life and hoping that |
| 00:46:56 | GM - Dave | the half-orc doesn't decide to stab you. |
| 00:46:58 | GM - Dave | Yes, that's true. You could withdraw. |
| 00:47:00 | GM - Dave | Right, so Fria missed, hasn't she? |
| 00:47:03 | Lómeril - Pete | Yes. |
| 00:47:04 | GM - Dave | So the bugbear is going to, got a javelin. |
| 00:47:07 | GM - Dave | And he doesn't particularly care about his friend, |
| 00:47:10 | GM - Dave | so he's going to throw it straight at you, Pete. |
| 00:47:14 | GM - Dave | And he's not going to take the -4. |
| 00:47:16 | GM - Dave | He's just going to throw it through his friend. |
| 00:47:18 | GM - Dave | It's not really his friend. |
| 00:47:21 | GM - Dave | He actually hits the hobgoblin in the back, |
| 00:47:23 | GM - Dave | Doing…. killing the hobgoblin. |
| 00:47:26 | Lómeril - Pete | Must have been really |
| 00:47:27 | Lómeril - Pete | unimpressed with his fighting. |
| 00:47:28 | GM - Dave | It was. There was two reasons for it. |
| 00:47:30 | GM - Dave | One, he was completely unimpressed. And he |
| 00:47:33 | GM - Dave | seems to show no concern on his face about |
| 00:47:36 | GM - Dave | the fact that one of his men's just gone down. |
| 00:47:38 | GM - Dave | Slobbering up the mouth. Hobgoblin is now out. |
| 00:47:42 | GM - Dave | Pete. |
| 00:47:43 | Lómeril - Pete | Come and get some if you |
| 00:47:44 | Lómeril - Pete | think you're hard enough. |
| 00:47:46 | Lómeril - Pete | : And brace for impact. |
| 00:47:47 | GM - Dave | OK, so 19, back of the beginning of the round. |
| 00:47:50 | GM - Dave | Tim. |
| 00:47:51 | Jestix - Tim | Hold my action until the bugbear arrives. |
| 00:47:53 | GM - Dave | OK, Fria. |
| 00:47:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Move behind the boys. |
| 00:47:56 | GM - Dave | OK, no problem. That's perfectly reasonable. |
| 00:47:58 | GM - Dave | The bugbear will then do a charge, |
| 00:48:00 | GM - Dave | because he can, into combat. |
| 00:48:02 | GM - Dave | And by the way, he is now frothing at |
| 00:48:04 | GM - Dave | the mouth as he's gone into rage. |
| 00:48:06 | GM - Dave | OK, so he then will attack Pete's character. |
| 00:48:09 | GM - Dave | Come on, this would be the perfect |
| 00:48:11 | GM - Dave | time to have got a 20. But I get a 1. |
| 00:48:14 | GM - Dave | So Pete, you're lucky for you. |
| 00:48:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | He trips over the two bodies. |
| 00:48:19 | GM - Dave | Luckily for you, the bugbear charges |
| 00:48:23 | GM - Dave | towards you with his rage and his charge bonus. |
| 00:48:26 | GM - Dave | And still manages to completely miss you. |
| 00:48:29 | GM - Dave | Right, so next would be Jestix's |
| 00:48:32 | GM - Dave | action, if you wanted to. |
| 00:48:35 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah, 2 again. It rolled off. |
| 00:48:37 | GM - Dave | be Lómeril |
| 00:48:39 | Mistress Fria - Howard | In my experience of colour |
| 00:48:40 | Mistress Fria - Howard | spray, would it be useful? |
| 00:48:43 | GM - Dave | No, because you used your action to move round. |
| 00:48:47 | GM - Dave | So now we're at the beginning of the |
| 00:48:49 | GM - Dave | and Jestix gets another action. |
| 00:48:51 | Jestix - Tim | Let's see if I can get above a 2. 21. |
| 00:48:55 | GM - Dave | Was that a threat? |
| 00:48:57 | Jestix - Tim | No, unfortunately, 20 is the threat. |
| 00:48:59 | GM - Dave | OK, so yes, that's a solid hit, I think. |
| 00:49:02 | Jestix - Tim | Doing 5 damage. |
| 00:49:04 | GM - Dave | Solid 5 damage. |
| 00:49:05 | GM - Dave | OK, so then it would be Howard. |
| 00:49:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | If i was to throw my dagger, |
| 00:49:11 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I have to take a -4. |
| 00:49:12 | GM - Dave | Yes, and you'd lose your dagger. |
| 00:49:14 | GM - Dave | You'd have to go, hoping that |
| 00:49:16 | GM - Dave | you can find it again later. |
| 00:49:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, I got a couple. |
| 00:49:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And I think I'm better at throwing. |
| 00:49:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Now, I'm going to try colour spraying him. |
| 00:49:26 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So that's one of my level ones. |
| 00:49:28 | GM - Dave | You don't need to do anything. |
| 00:49:30 | GM - Dave | It gets a willpower saving throw. |
| 00:49:32 | Jestix - Tim | In my action at the same time as well. |
| 00:49:34 | Jestix - Tim | The dog is going to move around. |
| 00:49:36 | GM - Dave | OK, so he's on that side of him. |
| 00:49:39 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Difficulty class is 15, apparently. |
| 00:49:42 | GM - Dave | Yes, he gets a willpower saving at 15. |
| 00:49:45 | GM - Dave | And his willpower is plus 1. |
| 00:49:48 | GM - Dave | 13 he gets. So what does it do? |
| 00:49:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Stuns lesser creatures. |
| 00:49:55 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Blind, stuns or… |
| 00:49:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It says knocks unconscious, |
| 00:49:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | blinds or stuns weak creatures. |
| 00:50:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I think it depends how |
| 00:50:03 | Mistress Fria - Howard | big it is. So it's probably… |
| 00:50:04 | GM - Dave | Here we are, colour spray. A vivid cone of |
| 00:50:06 | GM - Dave | clashing colours springs forth from the hand, |
| 00:50:08 | GM - Dave | causing the creature to become stunned. |
| 00:50:10 | GM - Dave | Perhaps also blinded, possibly |
| 00:50:11 | GM - Dave | knocking them unconscious. |
| 00:50:13 | GM - Dave | Each creature in the cone has effect |
| 00:50:15 | GM - Dave | according to hit dice. Two hit dice or less. |
| 00:50:17 | GM - Dave | The creature is unconscious, |
| 00:50:19 | GM - Dave | blinded and stunned for 2d4 rounds. |
| 00:50:22 | GM - Dave | He's failed the willpower save. |
| 00:50:24 | GM - Dave | Then blinded for an additional. |
| 00:50:26 | GM - Dave | So, OK, is he a two hit dice creature? |
| 00:50:29 | GM - Dave | He's a three hit dice creature. |
| 00:50:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So he'll have less effect. |
| 00:50:32 | GM - Dave | Stunned. The creature is blinded |
| 00:50:35 | GM - Dave | and stunned for 1d4 rounds. |
| 00:50:38 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Can I do the d4? Can I do the d4? |
| 00:50:41 | GM - Dave | OK. |
| 00:50:42 | Mistress Fria - Howard | 1. |
| 00:50:42 | GM - Dave | The next round, effectively. Stunned means I |
| 00:50:45 | GM - Dave | think he can only make a move action. |
| 00:50:47 | GM - Dave | That was Fria's go, it's the bugbear. |
| 00:50:50 | GM - Dave | He's blinded and he loses his action. |
| 00:50:54 | GM - Dave | OK, just nothing. Pete. Lómeril. |
| 00:50:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | He's blinded and standing in front of you. |
| 00:51:01 | Lómeril - Pete | Natural 20. |
| 00:51:03 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Now's the time to roll that one. |
| 00:51:06 | GM - Dave | Roll it again and see if you get a hit. |
| 00:51:08 | Lómeril - Pete | 21. |
| 00:51:08 | GM - Dave | That's a crit. |
| 00:51:09 | GM - Dave | So you do double or triple damage, |
| 00:51:12 | GM - Dave | whatever it is, your characters. |
| 00:51:14 | Lómeril - Pete | Roll the dice twice or double the |
| 00:51:16 | Lómeril - Pete | damage of your normal roll. |
| 00:51:18 | GM - Dave | I think you times it by two. |
| 00:51:19 | Lómeril - Pete | Bugger |
| 00:51:20 | Lómeril - Pete | 6 points of damage. |
| 00:51:22 | GM - Dave | Wait a minute. No, you roll the dice twice. |
| 00:51:25 | Lómeril - Pete | 3, 11. 14 points. |
| 00:51:29 | GM - Dave | Solid hit. He's now taken 19 points. |
| 00:51:33 | Lómeril - Pete | No, sorry. 13 points. |
| 00:51:35 | GM - Dave | He's still there. So beginning of the next round. |
| 00:51:38 | GM - Dave | And we're back around to Jestix. |
| 00:51:40 | Jestix - Tim | I'm back to 2, but also Henry will have a go. |
| 00:51:43 | Jestix - Tim | I moved him around there. |
| 00:51:45 | Jestix - Tim | And Henry gets a 18, which is a 20. |
| 00:51:48 | GM - Dave | Solid hit. |
| 00:51:49 | Jestix - Tim | I'm doing 2 damage. Oh, no, no, no. |
| 00:51:52 | Jestix - Tim | Wrong dice, wrong dice. I was picking the |
| 00:51:53 | Jestix - Tim | wrong one. It'll be at least that, but it might |
| 00:51:56 | Jestix - Tim | be better. It's 4 damage. |
| 00:51:58 | GM - Dave | 4 damage. He's now taken 22 points of damage. |
| 00:52:02 | GM - Dave | And he's dead. |
| 00:52:03 | Jestix - Tim | Savaged by the dog. |
| 00:52:05 | GM - Dave | OK, so he's dead, along with his crew. |
| 00:52:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I suggest we go and search their room. |
| 00:52:11 | Jestix - Tim | And their bodies. |
| 00:52:12 | GM - Dave | So you head into the room, yeah? |
| 00:52:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, yeah. |
| 00:52:14 | GM - Dave | And then you search their bodies. |
| 00:52:18 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Mr Lómeril, Whilst we have a good look |
| 00:52:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | around, would you just keep |
| 00:52:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | an eye out in case of anything |
| 00:52:23 | Mistress Fria - Howard | trying to ambush us or surprise us? |
| 00:52:26 | Lómeril - Pete | I'll try. |
| 00:52:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That's all we can ask. |
| 00:52:29 | Mistress Fria - Howard | We loot the bodies and then |
| 00:52:31 | Mistress Fria - Howard | move carefully into the room. |
| 00:52:33 | Mistress Fria - Howard | They were coming and going through this |
| 00:52:35 | Mistress Fria - Howard | door easily. So I'm expecting nothing |
| 00:52:38 | Mistress Fria - Howard | particular But so I'm only going to take 10. |
| 00:52:40 | GM - Dave | OK, this hall. |
| 00:52:42 | GM - Dave | A tattered and red-stained carpet |
| 00:52:45 | GM - Dave | runs most of its length. |
| 00:52:47 | GM - Dave | Moth-eaten tapestries of mounted knights |
| 00:52:51 | GM - Dave | and hilltop castles hang on the walls. |
| 00:52:54 | GM - Dave | At the far eastern end, this is a large |
| 00:52:56 | GM - Dave | wooden throne surrounded by empty |
| 00:52:58 | GM - Dave | kegs and dirty wooden plates. |
| 00:53:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Have a look around the throne. |
| 00:53:03 | GM - Dave | The hobgoblin's got a good quality longsword. |
| 00:53:06 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Better than ours? |
| 00:53:11 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Better than Lómeril's? |
| 00:53:13 | GM - Dave | Lómeril thinks so, yes. |
| 00:53:15 | Mistress Fria - Howard | All yours, mate. |
| 00:53:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Check the rest. |
| 00:53:17 | GM - Dave | The orc has a battleaxe. |
| 00:53:19 | GM - Dave | There's also a shield here as well. |
| 00:53:23 | GM - Dave | I'm just adding up the totals here. |
| 00:53:25 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Oh, out of interest. |
| 00:53:26 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Where would we have left the mule? |
| 00:53:30 | GM - Dave | Yeah, you've brought it with you. |
| 00:53:32 | GM - Dave | I'm assuming you've brought it in. |
| 00:53:33 | GM - Dave | Oh, by the way, unless I say otherwise, |
| 00:53:36 | GM - Dave | it's 15 foot tall ceilings, OK? |
| 00:53:40 | Jestix - Tim | Oh, I thought you were saying |
| 00:53:41 | Jestix - Tim | the mule was 15 foot tall. |
| 00:53:42 | Jestix - Tim | Bloody hell, that's a mule and a half. |
| 00:53:44 | GM - Dave | I will get a figure that actually loads properly. |
| 00:53:47 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Tied it to a post, tied it to a pillar |
| 00:53:50 | Mistress Fria - Howard | at the back there somewhere. |
| 00:53:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Put the weapons on the mule. |
| 00:53:53 | GM - Dave | 30 gold you find on their bodies. |
| 00:53:55 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I have a spare pouch belt. |
| 00:53:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Well, I suggest this is party treasure |
| 00:54:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and we put it in this pouch. |
| 00:54:02 | Lómeril - Pete | You carry it. |
| 00:54:02 | Mistress Fria - Howard | OK, so I give 10 to Jestix and i |
| 00:54:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | put 20 in my pouch and note |
| 00:54:13 | Mistress Fria - Howard | that now my beloved guardian owes me… |
| 00:54:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | He owes me 10 less than he did. |
| 00:54:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And we push into the room |
| 00:54:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | they came out of, the yellow room. |
| 00:54:23 | GM - Dave | He also, the bugbear, has a key |
| 00:54:26 | GM - Dave | on a chain a round his neck. |
| 00:54:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Well worth keeping, that'll open something. |
| 00:54:30 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I pick it up and say, oh, that'll be useful later. |
| 00:54:34 | GM - Dave | OK, this chamber here, basically it's got four |
| 00:54:39 | GM - Dave | beds, some chairs, an open barrel of ale. |
| 00:54:46 | GM - Dave | One of the beds is bugbear sized and there's |
| 00:54:50 | GM - Dave | basically piles of all sorts of crud in this room. |
| 00:54:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It's been quite a fight. |
| 00:54:56 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll have a sip of the ale and see |
| 00:54:58 | Mistress Fria - Howard | if it's drinkable or shit. |
| 00:55:00 | GM - Dave | Take a slight taste. It's a bit sour. |
| 00:55:04 | GM - Dave | It's a very alcoholic, but it's very sour. |
| 00:55:06 | Mistress Fria - Howard | OK, so if you can just get pissed. |
| 00:55:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | No, it's not refreshing. |
| 00:55:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It's just get pissed on. OK, I'll ignore it. |
| 00:55:12 | GM - Dave | I'm assuming you've just looked at |
| 00:55:14 | GM - Dave | I the room in the moment, yeah? |
| 00:55:15 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yep, now I'm going to take 20 |
| 00:55:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | and examine it carefully. |
| 00:55:20 | GM - Dave | OK, that will take a goodly |
| 00:55:23 | GM - Dave | amount of time to search this room. |
| 00:55:24 | GM - Dave | While he's doing, while she's doing that, |
| 00:55:27 | GM - Dave | what's the rest of the guys going to do? |
| 00:55:28 | Lómeril - Pete | Does the throne move? |
| 00:55:30 | GM - Dave | It's not tied down. |
| 00:55:32 | Lómeril - Pete | All right, I'll drag it out of the room and |
| 00:55:35 | Lómeril - Pete | put it in the corridor outside the door and |
| 00:55:38 | Lómeril - Pete | and then sit down in a restful |
| 00:55:40 | Lómeril - Pete | position whilst all this searching is going |
| 00:55:42 | Lómeril - Pete | on, because it's going to take forever. |
| 00:55:44 | GM - Dave | Yeah, so you're in this room. |
| 00:55:47 | GM - Dave | So, and Lómeril is kind of sitting here grandly. |
| 00:55:51 | GM - Dave | What's Jestix going to do? |
| 00:55:52 | Jestix - Tim | Jestix is going to walk up the long |
| 00:55:56 | Jestix - Tim | corridor room to the far end. |
| 00:55:58 | GM - Dave | There's a door at the end by the way. |
| 00:55:59 | Jestix - Tim | Is it shut? |
| 00:56:00 | GM - Dave | Yes. |
| 00:56:01 | Jestix - Tim | Keep going, listen to it. |
| 00:56:02 | Jestix - Tim | I'm probably incompetent |
| 00:56:03 | Jestix - Tim | and not very good at that. |
| 00:56:05 | Jestix - Tim | Roll a lesson while you're doing that. |
| 00:56:07 | Lómeril - Pete | I know what else I'm going to do, Dave. |
| 00:56:09 | Lómeril - Pete | I'm going to throw in one of my |
| 00:56:11 | Lómeril - Pete | chits or throw in my Endure element |
| 00:56:14 | Lómeril - Pete | to heal light wounds for myself. |
| 00:56:16 | GM - Dave | Yeah, that's perfectly reasonable. |
| 00:56:17 | GM - Dave | That's a d8, isn't it? |
| 00:56:19 | Jestix - Tim | I don't hear anything, but the dog |
| 00:56:20 | Jestix - Tim | gets a 25, which is a crit. |
| 00:56:22 | GM - Dave | The dog, yeah, hears noises from this doorway. |
| 00:56:26 | GM - Dave | Basically, he's gone over this way and |
| 00:56:29 | GM - Dave | points towards the door. |
| 00:56:31 | GM - Dave | He's not that bothered about what's behind there. |
| 00:56:33 | GM - Dave | While that's happening, Fria, it takes you |
| 00:56:36 | GM - Dave | 20 minutes to search this room. |
| 00:56:38 | GM - Dave | And I'm assuming basically you're searching the |
| 00:56:40 | GM - Dave | obvious places under beds and things like that. |
| 00:56:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, but I'm trying my |
| 00:56:46 | Mistress Fria - Howard | best to search intelligently. |
| 00:56:47 | Mistress Fria - Howard | People lived here and had a long time to |
| 00:56:51 | Mistress Fria - Howard | look for interesting places to hide their booty. |
| 00:56:55 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And they also had four people |
| 00:56:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | they didn't trust. So… |
| 00:56:58 | GM - Dave | Beneath the large bed is a locked |
| 00:57:01 | GM - Dave | box for the keyhole, yeah. |
| 00:57:03 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Okay, I'll just call out, guys, just |
| 00:57:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | opening a locked box here. |
| 00:57:08 | Mistress Fria - Howard | If you hear a bang, come and get me. |
| 00:57:10 | GM - Dave | You don't find anything else in the room, okay? |
| 00:57:12 | GM - Dave | You know, you find some odds and sods |
| 00:57:14 | GM - Dave | like people would normally have. |
| 00:57:16 | GM - Dave | Yeah, but there was no valuable stuff as such. |
| 00:57:19 | GM - Dave | I mean, you might find some bits of string and… |
| 00:57:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Guys, just about to open a box. |
| 00:57:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | If you hear a bang, come and get me. |
| 00:57:26 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I get out the key, check the box for traps. |
| 00:57:29 | GM - Dave | Roll your roll for… |
| 00:57:31 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I think it's search, I think. |
| 00:57:33 | GM - Dave | Yeah, so search. |
| 00:57:34 | GM - Dave | You can take 20 on it. |
| 00:57:37 | GM - Dave | But if you do take 20, it is assumed |
| 00:57:39 | GM - Dave | you found the trap. |
| 00:57:41 | GM - Dave | So you're doing a search, aren't you? |
| 00:57:42 | GM - Dave | If you were to, say, pick a lock and take 20, |
| 00:57:46 | GM - Dave | you are assumed to have set off the trap. |
| 00:57:49 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, we're looking for a trap. |
| 00:57:52 | GM - Dave | So you're just looking for a trap. |
| 00:57:53 | GM - Dave | So you can take 20. |
| 00:57:54 | GM - Dave | It just takes you, you know, study the whole thing. |
| 00:57:56 | GM - Dave | So what would your 20 be? |
| 00:57:57 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I mean 25. |
| 00:57:58 | GM - Dave | Okay, you do not find a trap. |
| 00:58:00 | GM - Dave | I open it with the key. |
| 00:58:02 | GM - Dave | Click, opens, and you lift it open and |
| 00:58:05 | GM - Dave | you find inside some clothing. |
| 00:58:08 | GM - Dave | You know, a couple of shirts and things like that. |
| 00:58:11 | GM - Dave | A brush, paint, paper, which has |
| 00:58:14 | GM - Dave | scrumpled up a bit. |
| 00:58:15 | Mistress Fria - Howard | The paper's useful. I'll shove that in. |
| 00:58:19 | GM - Dave | Chalk. |
| 00:58:20 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll add that to my existing |
| 00:58:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | chalk in my pouch belt. |
| 00:58:23 | GM - Dave | Thief's toolkit. |
| 00:58:24 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Squirrelled away into the pouch belt instantly. |
| 00:58:26 | GM - Dave | Do you have the toolkit already? |
| 00:58:27 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Nope. |
| 00:58:28 | GM - Dave | Roll a search. |
| 00:58:29 | Mistress Fria - Howard | It's a 1, so a natural 1. |
| 00:58:32 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I fumble the search. |
| 00:58:34 | GM - Dave | Okay, you've just got a thief's toolkit. |
| 00:58:36 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Nothing special. |
| 00:58:37 | GM - Dave | A healer's kit. |
| 00:58:39 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Mr. Lómeril, I have something |
| 00:58:41 | Mistress Fria - Howard | you'd be interested in. |
| 00:58:43 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I put it to one side for when he |
| 00:58:45 | Mistress Fria - Howard | arrives and I carry on searching. |
| 00:58:47 | GM - Dave | Okay, and you find a yellow Agate. A jewel. |
| 00:58:52 | Mistress Fria - Howard | A jewel. Gentlemen, I've found a small |
| 00:58:54 | Mistress Fria - Howard | gem and a healing kit, among other detritus. |
| 00:59:00 | Mistress Fria - Howard | So I show Mr. Lómeril the gem and then |
| 00:59:03 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I put it in my pouch and I then hand him the |
| 00:59:07 | Mistress Fria - Howard | healing kit and say, this looks like it might |
| 00:59:10 | Mistress Fria - Howard | be useful and I suspect you're best at using it. |
| 00:59:12 | Jestix - Tim | Do you have an appraise skill? |
| 00:59:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yes, 3. |
| 00:59:15 | Jestix - Tim | It might be worth appraising the gem. |
| 00:59:17 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I shall appraise the gem. |
| 00:59:19 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And in order to generate trust, |
| 00:59:22 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I roll a natural 11, that's a 14. |
| 00:59:25 | GM - Dave | You reckon the gem is worth tens of gold. |
| 00:59:28 | Mistress Fria - Howard | That is going to buy us all a couple of beers. |
| 00:59:32 | GM - Dave | Well, you've already probably earned |
| 00:59:34 | GM - Dave | more money in a couple of hours. |
| 00:59:37 | Jestix - Tim | Ever before. |
| 00:59:38 | GM - Dave | Someone's going to have to take notes. |
| 00:59:39 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm taking notes now. |
| 00:59:41 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'll save it in the Dropbox in a second. |
| 00:59:44 | Mistress Fria - Howard | We've had a yellow agate. |
| 00:59:46 | Mistress Fria - Howard | How much gold? |
| 00:59:47 | GM - Dave | I've given you tokens for that. I don't know. |
| 00:59:49 | GM - Dave | Did you actually give 10 to? |
| 00:59:51 | Jestix - Tim | Yeah, he gave me 10. |
| 00:59:53 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, so I had 20 and I kept 20 for effectively |
| 00:59:59 | Mistress Fria - Howard | for myself because it's an |
| 01:00:01 | Mistress Fria - Howard | immediate payment. |
| 01:00:02 | GM - Dave | Yeah, they're over here, Howard. |
| 01:00:04 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Yeah, I'm just, yeah, I'm just, |
| 01:00:05 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I'm writing notes at the moment. |
| 01:00:09 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And Pete, do you want to keep the |
| 01:00:12 | Mistress Fria - Howard | healing kit on your character sheet? |
| 01:00:14 | Mistress Fria - Howard | And I won't mention |
| 01:00:16 | Mistress Fria - Howard | Thieves pick and tools. |
| 01:00:18 | Mistress Fria - Howard | I shall add those to my kit |
| 01:00:21 | Mistress Fria - Howard | just because I'm weird like that. |
| 01:00:24 | Lómeril - Pete | Yeah, if Dave can add it to the |
| 01:00:25 | Lómeril - Pete | character sheet, that'd be great. |
| 01:00:27 | GM - Dave | Okay, I will do. One last thing, Pete, is that |
| 01:00:30 | GM - Dave | while you're sitting there looking at this sword |
| 01:00:33 | GM - Dave | that the hobgoblin had, the masterwork weapon |
| 01:00:36 | GM - Dave | which basically gives you another plus 1 to attack. |
| 01:00:39 | GM - Dave | That's 300 golds worth just there. |
| 01:00:41 | GM - Dave | It's not a magic weapon. |
| 01:00:42 | GM - Dave | It's just because of its fine quality. |
