Delor - HT : 0:00 - 0:12

I'm more concerned with making sure that they are well presented and all their bits are together. So I'm fetching lots of teaching.

GM - PB : 0:12 - 0:14

Well actually you were flat out.

Delor - HT : 0:15 - 0:16

I was.

GM - PB : 0:16 - 0:23

And you've been healed, recovered, healed slightly. So before you have a chance to start looking after yourself.

Delor - HT : 0:23 - 0:25

Everyone else has done everything else, yeah.

GM - PB : 0:27 - 0:43

Once you're revived to your current level, and Lindsay's going to care for Amiri. Lady Giovanni says, have you been everywhere else on your way down here?

Delor - HT : 0:43 - 0:44

Are they all dead?

Tazre - TE : 0:45 - 0:50

As far as we know. We've killed all the ones we've encountered.

Kasula - TW : 0:51 - 0:58

There were two others that stayed with your guards back in the central room.

GM - PB : 0:59 - 1:00

All right, come with me, she says.

Delor - HT : 1:01 - 1:05

Milady, we don't know if you've been everywhere. But everywhere we have been is now secure.

GM - PB : 1:06 - 1:08

OK, let us head back.

Delor - HT : 1:16 - 1:24

I'm following her like a lost puppy. Game is paused, so we can't move.

Tazre - TE : 1:24 - 1:24

Oh yes.

Delor - HT : 1:27 - 1:29

You can move us, but we can't move ourselves.

Tazre - TE : 1:29 - 1:30

Spacebar.

Kiri - DF : 1:39 - 1:41

There's lots of smoke down here.

GM - PB : 1:42 - 1:44

Yeah, it's getting increasingly smoky.

Delor - HT : 1:44 - 1:52

I give her my moistened hanky, and I just hold my breath myself.

GM - PB : 1:53 - 1:54

It's all right, she's fine.

Delor - HT : 1:55 - 2:02

I know, but I'm doing my best to follow her like a… She's my idol.

GM - PB : 2:04 - 2:09

I don't know if you actually saw her fight, but yeah, briefly against the prostitutes.

Delor - HT : 2:10 - 2:15

I probably should have seen her fighting because I lived in the dojo.

GM - PB : 2:16 - 2:16

Oh, yeah.

Delor - HT : 2:17 - 2:19

But I was just a…

Kasula - TW : 2:20 - 2:23

You worshipped her from afar.

Delor - HT : 2:24 - 2:33

I did, absolutely.

I cleared up her mess, all the blood and guts that were spilt in the dojo. I cleared up.

Kasula - TW : 2:34 - 2:43

Somewhere, you got a special rag, which only healed from mopping up her excess bodily fluids.

Delor - HT : 2:44 - 2:45

Indeed, I did.

GM - PB : 2:48 - 3:01

Right. She notices smoke coming through the door here, and says, Bastards, they set this place on fire.

Then she looks across over to here.

Delor - HT : 3:01 - 3:03

Have you been through that door?

Tazre - TE : 3:05 - 3:05

No.

Delor - HT : 3:06 - 3:07

No, we have not, Mum.

GM - PB : 3:07 - 3:10

OK, check that door. I shall go and sort out the fire, she says.

Delor - HT : 3:10 - 3:13

I run. She's given me an instruction.

GM - PB : 3:14 - 3:18

She runs off down here, takes a big gulp of air, and disappears down the corridor.

Delor - HT : 3:19 - 3:23

OK, I run and perform the instruction.

Kasula - TW : 3:24 - 3:50

Target. Target. I think we're going straight into combat. Hang on, where have our compatriots gone?

Tazre - TE : 3:52 - 3:53

They haven't come with us.

GM - PB : 3:56 - 3:58

Amari's being tended to by Lindsay.

Kasula - TW : 4:05 - 4:10

Righty, so. It is…

Kiri - DF : 4:10 - 4:11

Oh, yeah, initiative.

GM - PB : 4:13 - 4:13

Um…

Kiri - DF : 4:15 - 4:18

That one. I think.

Kasula - TW : 4:20 - 4:20

Initiative.

Kiri - DF : 4:22 - 4:23

Oh, for Christ's sake.

Kasula - TW : 4:24 - 4:37

Back, you bastard. Well.

Delor - HT : 4:40 - 4:41

Something did well.

Kasula - TW : 4:44 - 4:52

Whoop-dee-doo-dee-doo. Good way to burn a twenty. Or maybe not.

GM - PB : 4:59 - 4:59

Beats Kiri.

Kiri - DF : 5:07 - 5:13

That was a bit of healing. Making a first aid check, by chance?

Kasula - TW : 5:14 - 5:21

We haven't had the time for a first aid check. Because you need ten minutes for that.

GM - PB : 5:21 - 5:21

Yeah.

Kasula - TW : 5:22 - 5:25

She basically rushed us straight back here.

Tazre - TE : 5:28 - 5:30

Can anybody see a target?

Kasula - TW : 5:30 - 5:31

Oh, yeah.

Kiri - DF : 5:32 - 5:33

There's something here.

Kasula - TW : 5:33 - 5:36

Yeah.

There is something in and to the right.

GM - PB : 5:39 - 6:10

We'll just wait for Howard to hold his initiative. Hmm.

Kiri - DF : 6:25 - 6:32

I didn't get to watch the last of the, um… Tear the Jackal.

GM - PB : 6:35 - 6:37

Is that on the box, as it were?

Kiri - DF : 6:37 - 6:37

No.

Tazre - TE : 6:39 - 6:46

I think up to nine is on the box. Ten will probably be on the box. Tomorrow or Wednesday?

Kiri - DF : 6:47 - 6:48

It was on, um…

Delor - HT : 6:50 - 6:51

One of the Sky channels.

Kiri - DF : 6:53 - 7:03

I recorded it. And, um… It only seemed to record the first 15 minutes and then decided it had to be Channel 4.

Delor - HT : 7:05 - 7:09

I'm monitoring, but I'm eating.

So I'm just off the screen.

Kiri - DF : 7:09 - 7:11

I was enjoying it up to that point.

GM - PB : 7:11 - 7:13

Roll the initiative, Howard.

Tazre - TE : 7:18 - 7:20

What did you think of Red One?

Kiri - DF : 7:22 - 7:23

I haven't watched that yet.

Tazre - TE : 7:23 - 7:24

I thought you were going to watch that.

Kiri - DF : 7:25 - 7:32

Well, James is home, so I'm hoping I'm going to encourage him and Jesse to watch it in the next week.

Kasula - TW : 7:33 - 7:41

I'm a little surprised it's gone straight to streaming as quickly as it has. I would normally take…

Tazre - TE : 7:41 - 7:44

It was made by Amazon MGM, so what do you expect?

Kasula - TW : 7:44 - 7:57

Well, okay, yeah. No, no, that's valid. The cinema release was just a way of making an extra buck.

It was always planned to be released on streaming. Fair enough, yeah.

Kiri - DF : 7:59 - 8:07

I think we'll see more of those. And also it probably allows them to go for a bid for an Oscar or something like that.

Tazre - TE : 8:08 - 8:10

It's not getting an Oscar.

Kiri - DF : 8:10 - 8:13

No, but we're going to see that…

Kasula - TW : 8:13 - 8:16

Other films. Other films, yes.

Tazre - TE : 8:17 - 8:21

Unless it's for special effects where they shrink the rock down to a little bitty rock.

GM - PB : 8:25 - 8:29

Yeah, I might have got the family coming up over Christmas, but watch it with them, then.

Kasula - TW : 8:30 - 8:39

It's quite fun. I'm trying to think if there's anything particularly scary.

Tazre - TE : 8:40 - 8:41

No.

GM - PB : 8:43 - 8:45

Well, Kuzula, you're first.

Kasula - TW : 8:46 - 8:47

Oh, we've got everybody, have we?

GM - PB : 8:48 - 8:48

Mm-hm.

Delor - HT : 8:49 - 8:50

All righty.

Kasula - TW : 8:51 - 8:54

Well, I can see you're chappy, can't I?

GM - PB : 8:56 - 8:57

I believe so.

Kasula - TW : 8:57 - 9:30

Excellent. Well, we'll start off with a shout of… Bad Guy!

And I will… I am going to… Let's see, if I target him…

I should be able to… …try and daze on him. So, he's got a basic DC-17 will-safe.

GM - PB : 9:32 - 9:35

OK. Have you targeted him?

Kasula - TW : 9:35 - 9:52

Yeah, I've got the little red pointy arrow, yes.

It's a will-safe. I'm on plus nine.

GM - PB : 9:53 - 10:06

You're on plus nine, but when I roll…

…he gets lucky.

Kasula - TW : 10:07 - 10:39

Oh, well. OK. Um…

So, that doesn't do anything to him. So… Swang! Shoot him… It's a hit.

Delor - HT : 10:42 - 10:43

Does he…

GM - PB : 10:43 - 10:45

Divide one, yeah.

Plus an average.

Kasula - TW : 10:50 - 10:50

Here we go.

Delor - HT : 10:56 - 11:05

So, a crossbow bolt whistles past your ears. Indeed it does, yes. Er…

Kasula - TW : 11:05 - 11:26

I think that's everything to me. I've shot my bolt in more ways than one. Um…

Oh, dear. Don't like the look of that.

Tazre - TE : 11:28 - 11:30

I don't even know where that is.

Delor - HT : 11:31 - 11:35

I know, but anybody named Nishkiv the Knife… Well, quite.

Kasula - TW : 11:36 - 11:41

Doesn't sound like the type of chap that you want to bump into in a dark alleyway.

Tazre - TE : 11:44 - 11:54

That's why we've got a… …doesn't roll in front of us, so we don't have to bump into him in a dark alley. He bumps into me in a dark alley.

GM - PB : 11:55 - 11:55

Quite.

Tazre - TE : 11:56 - 11:57

He's our human shield.

GM - PB : 11:58 - 12:04

Meat shield! Meat shield! Er…

Delor - HT : 12:07 - 12:13

And positively enthusiastic to be one. Er… I am listening in.

Kasula - TW : 12:14 - 12:15

Oh, dear.

Delor - HT : 12:16 - 12:22

HE COUGHS He nodded off. No, no, he did say he was there.

Tazre - TE : 12:22 - 12:24

I know he did, but I've forgotten.

Delor - HT : 12:25 - 12:29

HE CHUCKLES It was a long time ago, after all.

Tazre - TE : 12:32 - 12:34

Days had been cast. I'd forgotten everything since then.

Delor - HT : 13:35 - 13:40

Was that the initiative round? Now we're into the normal…

Tazre - TE : 13:40 - 13:43

We're busy waiting for Pete to decide what he's going to do.

Delor - HT : 13:45 - 13:49

I know kind of what I want to do, but… What's his face?

Kasula - TW : 13:49 - 14:00

The Knife is about to do something horrible to us. Yeah. He's just deciding which of us he's going to be truly horrible to.

And whether or not he can be horrible to all of us at the same time.

GM - PB : 14:05 - 14:05

Mmm…

Delor - HT : 14:18 - 14:51

Oh, dear. OK. This one…

Moves to there. And it's going to shoot. Ta-da!

Oh, I've got to write it up.

GM - PB : 14:52 - 14:52

Yep, makes sense.

Delor - HT : 15:14 - 15:18

Ooh. It's not what you want to see first time out, is it?

Tazre - TE : 15:20 - 15:22

It seems to be a path, after all.

Kasula - TW : 15:22 - 15:45

No, I wouldn't call it a path. I know you've kind of set your heart on being this swashbuckly type of individual, but have you actually thought about trading it all in and just getting yourself the heaviest set of metal you could possibly cloak yourself in?

Delor - HT : 15:50 - 16:17

You know, just a slight career change. OK. It's a question about embeds itself deep into you.

I grudge to… As you take 8 damage, but quickly reloading, he misses with the second one. Tattery…

Tazre - TE : 16:17 - 16:22

Well, as he's walked into my field of vision, I shoot the bastard.

Delor - HT : 16:23 - 16:24

That's Wonderwood.

Tazre - TE : 16:31 - 16:44

Change weapons, because he's got the wrong one out. But I miss.

Delor - HT : 16:49 - 16:50

Keeping up your fine tradition.

Tazre - TE : 16:51 - 16:57

Yes. That's all I'm doing.

Delor - HT : 16:58 - 16:59

Just one shot.

Tazre - TE : 16:59 - 17:11

Just one shot. I'm running out of arrows. I can't just keep blasting them.

I have to use the best ones I can get. All right.

Delor - HT : 17:19 - 17:24

You probably still get some half-decent bonuses with a crossbow, don't you?

Tazre - TE : 17:26 - 17:28

The problem is I do a lot less damage.

Delor - HT : 17:30 - 17:35

The guy at the back tries to shoot you, Kazula.

GM - PB : 17:36 - 17:45

Yeet. Yeets? Yeet.

Delor - HT : 17:53 - 18:01

Yeet. It only wings you. You bastard.

He shoots you again.

Tazre - TE : 18:05 - 18:07

And hits you again. The bastard.

Delor - HT : 18:09 - 18:22

He's got it in well. You complete bastard. Eggdon is going to try and shoot you a third time.

Tazre - TE : 18:22 - 18:26

He can't, unless he's using a bow. Because you've got to do a reload action.

Delor - HT : 18:27 - 18:28

What, with a crossbow?

Tazre - TE : 18:28 - 18:29

Yes.

Delor - HT : 18:29 - 18:30

Heck yeah.

Tazre - TE : 18:31 - 18:34

Why do you think I'm not using a crossbow? Yeah.

Delor - HT : 18:35 - 18:38

Yeah, fire, load, fire. No, fire, reload, fire.

Tazre - TE : 18:38 - 18:39

Reload, fire.

Delor - HT : 18:43 - 18:45

Even with a hand crossbow?

Kasula - TW : 18:45 - 18:49

Oh, yeah. Even with a hand crossbow, reload is an action.

GM - PB : 18:49 - 18:50

All right.

Kasula - TW : 18:54 - 19:08

Did it know that? Did it? We'll put it this way.

If it isn't, then my rate of fire is going to increase. Dunno. So, make a slight judgment call.

Delor - HT : 19:08 - 20:19

You know, it's kind of up to you. I am going to use the special sword. I don't know if that makes any difference at all.

Or how its specialness will… Have you equipped it? Yep.

Especially equipped before. So, I'm going to step to there. It goes past one wall.

So, I have to kind of go to there. And then… Actually, I might as well just attack this badly injured guy on my right hand side.

So, a 5 foot step and attack. So, strikes. And my first attack is with the slashing weapon.

Hang on. Why is that only plus 7 and my other one is plus 9? I'm not as good with that.

Anyway, what the hell. That's what I said I'd do. I'm hitting it.

And I don't know if I have any modified… Is this plus 1 circumstance?

Tazre - TE : 20:20 - 20:27

It will take… Either it will take a count or it will do whatever Pete decides. Just roll the dice.

Delor - HT : 20:31 - 20:42

That's a good start. That must be a critical. It is.

It has to be. Okay. So, critical.

Click on the critical button. And I do this much damage.

Tazre - TE : 20:42 - 20:45

Did you target him? Oh, no.

Delor - HT : 20:45 - 20:46

I haven't yet. Sorry.

Tazre - TE : 20:46 - 20:48

Because you touched him.

Delor - HT : 20:50 - 21:09

Okay. So, I have done 10 points of damage. But I only targeted him afterwards.

So, you may have to click on the damage button too. Oh, apply full damage to selected token. I think I've got a selected token.

I've got it. Oh, you've got it. No, I haven't.

GM - PB : 21:09 - 21:10

No, no, no.

Delor - HT : 21:10 - 21:47

Oh, God, please, Ted. Thank you. Okay.

You try. Okay. So, I select him and hit damage.

Yeah. Maybe double damage. No, that's…

How do I… Select him. I've got…

How do I unselect me? I've targeted… He's got the red arrows kind of pointing in on his token.

And I'm hitting damage. Hang on.

Kasula - TW : 21:47 - 21:49

It's because… Target.

Delor - HT : 21:49 - 22:37

Hang on. If I go set targets… Okay, yeah.

Luck to you. So, I can't… If I hit damage, if I go set target, it goes to my target.

So, there you go. He takes his 10 points of damage. Is he…

Is he still going? Does he get my second attack? No.

You slice him through. And I then try to… He frees the wall and collapses to the ground.

I try to trip the other guy with my second strike, which is a… Now, this is where I have to… If I want to trip, it has to be a skill roll of athletics, doesn't it?

Tazre - TE : 22:37 - 22:40

No, you have to hit. And then do a skill roll.

Delor - HT : 22:40 - 22:50

Yeah, so I have to hit, yep. So, I'll roll my to hit, but we're not… This is not for damage, this is for trip.

So, this is the to hit roll.

Tazre - TE : 22:52 - 22:57

Looking good, actually. That's a crit on the… Did you target him?

GM - PB : 22:58 - 22:59

Oh, fuck. Sorry, Tim.

Delor - HT : 23:01 - 24:01

Okay, I have targeted him now. And I'm going to say, if I click on trip, that's just an info thing. So, I have targeted him and I want him on the floor.

So, that is an opposed athletics roll, isn't it? I think so, yeah. So, I do an athletics roll and I think I have to get over something.

That's quite good. 21. So, that's the athletics check for trip.

Okay, beats me. So, he's on the floor. Why isn't the effect trips prone, you must be saying?

GM - PB : 24:01 - 24:01

Yes.

Delor - HT : 24:02 - 25:20

Okay. Okay, he is prone. Okay, I…

And my third is just a movement. That's it, you moved. I moved.

I can't kneel down behind him and put my… …dagger through his throat. No.

I can't get out of the way of my companions. Okay. Make him push past, I believe.

Good. Right, so… Who's the person in the corner or do I not know yet?

You don't know. Okay. Assuming I can see…

You can see an arm. Well, you can give him cover or something if you wish. I'm going to lob something like this chair.

Okay. So, I use my telepathic… So, I'll lob a chair at him.

All right. All right, so, target him and roll yours.

GM - PB : 25:23 - 25:24

All right.

Kasula - TW : 25:26 - 25:29

I think one of your external mics is closed.

Delor - HT : 25:32 - 25:43

No, they're chatting away in here. I'll mute. It misses.

It does. Okay. You lobbed the chair, he goes flying over the top of it.

Tazre - TE : 25:50 - 25:52

If only he hadn't fallen to the ground.

Delor - HT : 25:53 - 26:09

Yeah, you nearly had him otherwise. There isn't much else I can do, really. I don't really want to move forward.

Kiri - DF : 26:17 - 26:19

No, I… That'll be enough, then. All right.

Tazre - TE : 26:20 - 26:21

You're not going to raise your shields, Phil?

Delor - HT : 26:23 - 26:25

Is there a reason to?

Tazre - TE : 26:26 - 26:29

The guy there was just shooting at people.

Kasula - TW : 26:30 - 26:31

And that's a good reason, too.

Delor - HT : 26:37 - 26:39

All right. You're shielded.

Kasula - TW : 26:43 - 27:03

All righty. So, I want… I also have my shield.

So, we're going to bang shield up. I'm going to…

Delor - HT : 27:04 - 27:08

Should I put special effect onto you? Spell effect onto you?

Kasula - TW : 27:08 - 28:00

It's the spell effect shield. I'm then going to… …reload my hand crossbow. See, you have to do this. There we go. It's eaten up an entire action.

Yep, yep, yep. I am then going to move forward to here to get a view into that area, which I still can't see anybody. So, that's fine.

Okay. There we go.

Delor - HT : 28:01 - 28:21

All right. Yay, I have worked the tool. You did.

Tim, do you know how your sneaking abilities work?

Tazre - TE : 28:23 - 28:29

If you attack them and you succeed, it automatically does the sneaky bits.

Delor - HT : 28:31 - 28:34

Because he was trying to hide last round. You know, he…

Tazre - TE : 28:34 - 28:35

Successfully hid.

Delor - HT : 28:36 - 28:45

Well, I rolled a die, so whether or not it's successful, I don't know. I suppose it's based on opposed roll. But that's why they're not too sure.

Tazre - TE : 28:46 - 28:56

No, well, we haven't done that before. Because the sneaky part and the whatever is just rolled into the attack. But the actual…

Whether we actually can see him is not a matter.

Delor - HT : 28:58 - 30:13

Indeed. Give me a minute as I try to find some rules for guidance. Okay, do you want to make a perception check there?

I can't hear you out of your music. Yep, 15. 15, all right.

For the average, but maybe enough.

GM - PB : 30:37 - 31:01

I still don't know where is my hammer bag. In my room. Then I don't know.

I think it's over. You don't want to do that? No, no.

That's a bit of a problem. It's just…

Delor - HT : 31:09 - 31:17

All right, so, a brief look. He wasn't actually there.

GM - PB : 31:17 - 31:19

I think he was there.

Delor - HT : 31:19 - 32:06

He stumbles up the wall to try and hit you from being unobserved because you're looking ahead. Here's a sneak roll. That's better than my spot.

This one is against your perception base, which would be 10% So, my perception, I think, is plus five. Yeah, so he may be bad. Yep.

So, Ben, I think he's going to drop a nuke and see what happens.

Kiri - DF : 32:06 - 32:06

Yep.

GM - PB : 32:07 - 32:07

Sad.

Delor - HT : 32:27 - 32:33

Okay, so, I think he's flat footed. Very likely.

GM - PB : 32:35 - 32:56

I don't know. No. No, I don't think so.

I'd be in a lot of trouble.

Kiri - DF : 32:56 - 32:58

Danny's face would be like this. And I'd be like…

GM - PB : 33:05 - 33:33

I'm not sure. Yeah, but… I mean, if we were to continue at this time, we'd be in a lot of trouble.

Listen to me. Yeah. You're not good.

No, I would not have that at all. Why would I? Why would you not?

Delor - HT : 33:36 - 33:50

To survive this and the next bacteria capture its attacks, am I? Well, you might do if I can't figure out how to load his dagger. Ranged.

GM - PB : 33:52 - 33:53

It's not ranged.

Delor - HT : 33:55 - 33:57

Do you have to equip it?

GM - PB : 33:57 - 33:58

Yeah.

Delor - HT : 34:00 - 34:01

I can't tell what to equip.

Tazre - TE : 34:11 - 34:15

If you look at his character sheets. Yeah.

Delor - HT : 34:22 - 34:25

I mean, he's got ranged attacks.

Kiri - DF : 34:25 - 34:47

I've just always done it like that. At my house, we do have a washing machine. But I find I'll end up putting one thing in the washing machine.

And then I'll have to end up unloading it. And because we're in a house with four people, everybody's got their own sets of clothes and stuff. And I'm like, I don't want to have to figure out whose set of clothes this is.

And all that. So I go, I'll just wash myself.

GM - PB : 34:47 - 34:48

Yeah, sure.

Kiri - DF : 34:48 - 34:52

Yeah. Because it becomes a whole trouble with people. Yeah.

Yeah.

Tazre - TE : 34:57 - 34:59

He doesn't appear to have any equipment.

Delor - HT : 35:02 - 35:23

Yeah, he's got a dagger. And some armour. And some potions.

Doesn't he have a stabbing dagger? He only has a throwing dagger. There's no stabbing dagger.

I don't think they make a difference. Throwing daggers are more…

Kiri - DF : 35:24 - 35:26

It just says dagger. Balanced.

Delor - HT : 35:30 - 35:35

You can throw a non-throwing dagger. Held in one hand and useless to have a creature in close combat.

Kiri - DF : 35:40 - 35:52

Mm. I don't know that it's not the ones I've given you recently.

GM - PB : 35:55 - 35:55

OK.

Delor - HT : 35:57 - 36:12

Well, since his attacks are exactly the same, it's not going to matter. But you are flat-footed. So you'll get an extra sneak if it hits.

Tazre - TE : 36:20 - 36:26

Of course it hits. Of course.

GM - PB : 36:26 - 36:27

No.

Tazre - TE : 36:38 - 36:51

If you haven't, you haven't equipped it for weeks. Well, your armour class has been pretty much the same all the time.

Kasula - TW : 36:52 - 36:55

I mean, you've only got leather armour, so AC-17 is not…

Delor - HT : 36:56 - 36:57

No, it should be 18.

Kasula - TW : 36:57 - 36:59

And I haven't got my protective board up.

Delor - HT : 37:00 - 37:01

Because we didn't have the rest time.

Tazre - TE : 37:02 - 37:04

Anyway, he's just stuck to you.

Delor - HT : 37:04 - 37:46

Yep. OK. Oh, yeah.

He reaches up. Sneaks up and you feel a sharp blade in your… In my ribcage.

Yes. Oh, dear. It feels bad.

Oh, dear. Well, it's lucky you've got a hero point, innit? It is.

It's very short-lived, I think. It lasted 33 minutes. Can you just not stop going unconscious?

Well, you can go to the floor. If you want, you can go to the front door… Er, the door first.

GM - PB : 37:46 - 37:49

Oh, God! Alright.

Delor - HT : 37:50 - 38:01

Tattery, you get shot. At. By whom?

By, er, the… …the cutthroat that you can see.

Tazre - TE : 38:02 - 38:04

Oh, right. Did he stand up?

Delor - HT : 38:05 - 38:34

Oh, yes, he was, er… Yeah. Good point.

Actions. Someone's looking at heel. That's always a nice thing to see at this time of the battle.

He's no longer prone. So he'll… …stand, er…

Tazre - TE : 38:36 - 38:41

…up. I don't think… I don't think your armour is equipped.

Delor - HT : 39:04 - 39:06

How do you storm around?

Tazre - TE : 39:08 - 39:16

Er, on the right-hand corner… …right, where you've got the effects, you click on the prone… …and it'll go away.

GM - PB : 39:19 - 39:40

OK, right-click on there. Thank you. Er…

Bullshit. That's OK. I didn't know that.

Yeah, I know he's in here, but I didn't know. OK.

Delor - HT : 39:43 - 39:49

Crossbow bolt whizzes past your ear. But it doesn't hit you. Tattery.

Tazre - TE : 39:50 - 39:59

I… …return the compliment. I'm still this.

Delor - HT : 39:59 - 40:11

A little better than last time. Are you doing anything else?

Tazre - TE : 40:13 - 40:19

Er… I will… …raise my buckler. All right.

Delor - HT : 40:29 - 40:40

Er… That Black Teeth Cutthroat's not doing much. Dolor's not doing very much.

Geary.

GM - PB : 40:49 - 41:03

Well, I'll go at…

Kasula - TW : 41:06 - 41:08

He's going to come through, isn't he?

Delor - HT : 41:17 - 41:48

Fireball. It's the only way to be sure. Oh!

Wonderful spell. Anyone got one? Right.

It's the one nearest the door that just stabbed Dolor, isn't it? Yep. Can I see that one?

Er, not really, no. You only barely see the one who stood up.

Kasula - TW : 41:48 - 41:49

I'll move there.

Delor - HT : 41:51 - 41:55

OK, yeah, you can see it now. And then I'll… I'll…

Tazre - TE : 41:55 - 41:56

You know…

Delor - HT : 41:56 - 41:56

…this here…

Tazre - TE : 41:58 - 42:04

…chair. I've changed your armour to be warm. Obviously, it makes no difference how it's too late, but…

Delor - HT : 42:06 - 42:43

Yeah. Bit more… They've seen it.

So… I will again throw a chair at somebody. In the hope that this time it hits someone.

OK, who are you throwing a chair at? The guy with the… You've got two daggers out, by the way.

Yep. OK. Oh, goodness!

Bastard rolled off! The chair… …just falls over. And that's it. Well, that'll be my actions.

Kasula - TW : 42:46 - 43:07

Who then? Right. Am I able to actually…

…interact with… …Denil… …at that angle? Or do I have to actually move to get him? You have to move.

Delor - HT : 43:09 - 43:24

What's the problem, James? I don't know, so you'll be sticking your hand in Arm's way if you try to… …interact. On his…

…body. Well, it depends what you're trying to do, but…

Kasula - TW : 43:26 - 43:34

No, no, actually, this is not too difficult, he says, in some ways. Right, OK, I can take a…

Tazre - TE : 43:34 - 43:37

Next time, get Kiri to telekinesis his body back.

Kasula - TW : 43:40 - 44:11

Another option. I can take a five-foot step back there. I like that idea.

Could you throw it at us? I can then… Hang on, make sure I've selected the right target.

Target, target. So he's targeted. I should then be able to do…

…the… …two-point heel.

Tazre - TE : 44:16 - 44:16

Yep.

Delor - HT : 44:21 - 44:22

And…

Kasula - TW : 44:25 - 44:33

Right. And… Right, OK, it's the…

…heel versus…

Delor - HT : 44:34 - 45:28

…living. And… …healing. All right. Delort, you should have just got nine points back.

I think Delort will need to click on Apply Healing, but yep, you have nine back. There you go. Don't eat it all at once.

Poor Wally does not need it. I wake up in a state of reverie, but I don't jump up. But that's for me on my next round.

Yeah, there's sort of a… …a glowing… …white magical effect…

Tazre - TE : 45:28 - 45:34

…goes over. Shortly before, like, two daggers plunging into the chemite's body.

Delor - HT : 45:35 - 45:55

Probably, yep. But at least they plunged into mine, not yours. OK.

He steps over your body… …and… …now, that's just cheating, he says. And he leaps upon you and attempts to beat the crap out of you.

Kasula - TW : 46:02 - 46:05

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was worried you were saying something like that.

GM - PB : 46:10 - 46:13

Yeah. Oh, no.

Tazre - TE : 46:14 - 46:16

He misses! Hooray! And…

Delor - HT : 46:18 - 46:33

Hmm. Somehow or other, he slips on some of Dolor's blood and misses. My blood or guts.

Possibly both, yes. I live up to my name.

Tazre - TE : 46:40 - 46:42

Unfortunately, the second attack hits.

Delor - HT : 46:43 - 47:09

Yeah. Just need to check on something. Unfortunately, you weren't fooled by his first attack.

So, he just does a little more damage with the second attack.

Kiri - DF : 47:19 - 47:22

It just occurred to me where I'm actually going to put my PC.

GM - PB : 47:24 - 47:24

It was there.

Kiri - DF : 47:25 - 47:26

Yeah, it was there.

Delor - HT : 47:26 - 48:06

Wait, wait, wait! Get him off me! Get him off me!

The boy is back. Um… Tell us where he is.

You get to crossbow boards with him. He missed. He reloads.

He has another go.

GM - PB : 48:14 - 48:15

Ooh.

Tazre - TE : 48:21 - 48:22

And he misses.

Delor - HT : 48:25 - 48:31

Not wanting to hit his boss, he obviously pulled. Covering.

Tazre - TE : 48:33 - 48:53

I drop the bow. Draw my rapier. And stab the bastard who just comes through the door.

Delor - HT : 48:54 - 49:00

Okay. He might get a couple of stabby stabs.

Tazre - TE : 49:01 - 49:06

Indeed. Hit.

Delor - HT : 49:08 - 49:17

Oh. Congratulations. Did you unhook the right person?

Tazre - TE : 49:18 - 49:19

No, I didn't. Sorry.

Delor - HT : 49:25 - 49:28

Do you want to roll again or do you want to keep your…

Tazre - TE : 49:28 - 49:29

Keep the eight.

Delor - HT : 49:29 - 49:32

No, your attack roll. Oh, right.

Tazre - TE : 49:33 - 49:34

Ah, right. Oh!

Delor - HT : 49:36 - 49:41

I don't know what the answer is, so I'm giving you the option to keep…

Tazre - TE : 49:42 - 49:44

I'll roll with the eight. It makes it easier.

Delor - HT : 49:44 - 49:46

Okay. Wise choice.

GM - PB : 49:54 - 49:56

You hit? Yep. Damage?

Tazre - TE : 50:02 - 50:03

Not quite as much. Six.

Delor - HT : 50:04 - 50:05

But at least you hit.

Tazre - TE : 50:06 - 50:11

Alright. Yep. And then I attempt to hit him again.

Delor - HT : 50:22 - 50:29

Which I do. What is this? Obviously, you're crap with a range, but you're really good with close-up.

Tazre - TE : 50:29 - 50:32

I'm good with a range, normally. I've just been rolling shit.

Delor - HT : 50:33 - 50:36

You say you're good with range. I don't think I can remember you hitting with range.

Tazre - TE : 50:37 - 50:39

I have done twice. I've killed twice with a bow.

Delor - HT : 50:40 - 50:42

Yeah, yeah, yeah. In your dreams.

Tazre - TE : 50:43 - 50:43

I know.

Delor - HT : 50:45 - 50:48

You're this elf who shoots the Deadeye in your dreams.

Tazre - TE : 50:49 - 50:59

And then I put my shield back up. Because drop is a free action. No, it's not.

Delor - HT : 50:59 - 51:03

No, drop is a free action, but arming yourself…

Tazre - TE : 51:03 - 51:05

Ah, right. Yes. Yeah, okay.

Good point.

Delor - HT : 51:10 - 52:16

So, they do nothing. Right. Dolor, make a perception roll, please.

Okay. As your vision clears with some glorious healing magic applied to you, you sneak a look and… Well, to your right, you see a fallen body, one of these cutthroats.

You see another cutthroat standing over you, currently ignoring you, shooting back through the doorway. You can hear the sounds of swordplay just inches behind you. You also see over here, on this thing, there's a figure who's lying on there.

You think that they may be bound. He might be muted still, I don't know.

Tazre - TE : 52:17 - 52:17

He is.

Kasula - TW : 52:17 - 52:22

He is. He might be muted. You're muted, Howard.

I'm muted.

Delor - HT : 52:24 - 52:59

Muted! I take just a moment to enjoy the healing rush of magic, and then I drive my sword up into the nethers of the person standing over me, fighting my companions. Okay.

I don't bother standing up yet. Yeah, you can certainly do that. You're a couple of negatives, which I think…

Are you prone? Are you listed as prone? I think I must be prone, but I'm not listed as prone.

Tazre - TE : 52:59 - 53:00

So, sign yourself prone.

Delor - HT : 53:02 - 53:08

I've done it for you. I can't quite tell what those little icons are, but…

GM - PB : 53:08 - 53:10

They're all around the corner, aren't they?

Delor - HT : 53:11 - 53:35

Yep. I'm prone and off guard, applied by prone. Okay.

So, I will now strike with my kukri into his nethers. Okay. Wish me luck, ladies and gents.

Not bad. That's a critical.

Tazre - TE : 53:36 - 53:36

No, that's a hit.

Delor - HT : 53:37 - 53:44

It's a hit. Oh, just hit. Yep.

So, there's damage and grip. It offers you a critical at any time.

Tazre - TE : 53:44 - 53:51

And you didn't target him. I thought I had. No, because you targeted that guard cutthroat.

Delor - HT : 53:52 - 54:18

Okay. I've now targeted him, so do I hit damage, or that's me? I'm going to try it.

If you do damage, you'll apply it to the wrong person at the moment. I've targeted him before I've done damage, so… Okay.

Try it. I've targeted him, and now I'm doing the damage. Oh, minimum damage.

Yep.

Kiri - DF : 54:18 - 54:19

Four points of two.

Delor - HT : 54:21 - 54:26

Mishkiv the knife. Is he still…

Tazre - TE : 54:26 - 54:27

Near death. Yes, he's near death.

Delor - HT : 54:28 - 54:37

Near death. And Kiri… Okay.

Kiri might yet take him out. I will try my best. I'll then wheel around.

Tazre - TE : 54:38 - 54:40

You're lying on the ground, so you're not wheeling around.

Delor - HT : 54:40 - 55:01

Can I stand and hit? Or do I just have to… I'm going to suck an action off you for grabbing hold of your weapons, which were next to you, but that's because you were unconscious.

Or bunkered, anyway. Okay, so I have one more action to do. One more action, yep.

Okay.

Tazre - TE : 55:01 - 55:02

Stop the guy again.

Delor - HT : 55:02 - 55:07

I'm going to try stabbing the unharmed guy next to me.

Tazre - TE : 55:07 - 55:10

No, stab the same guy again. Because he's trying to kill your healer.

Delor - HT : 55:12 - 55:20

Okay, then… Bloody hell, yeah. Good thinking.

Killing my healer? That's bad news. I will attack him once more.

GM - PB : 55:20 - 55:22

Look after your dealer, man.

Delor - HT : 55:22 - 56:17

Look after your dealer. You know, I know junkies. You need to look after me, man.

Okay, this is a plus nought, so he's got a low chance of hitting. Don't miss. Okay.

He moves his leg out of the way. He's hopping around, going, ow. Where'd that come from?

He's got a crook in the nethers. Excuse me. Right.

He's just in front of me, isn't he? Yep. Right next to you.

Well, he can have some spell damage. The telekinetic thing, by the look of it, doesn't look like it can be used to pick up a body.

Tazre - TE : 56:18 - 56:19

Oh, right. Not strong enough.

Delor - HT : 56:20 - 57:03

It doesn't. I mean, it seems a bit silly that you can't do that, but maybe there's a specific spell for that. So, here we go.

I'm going to find something slashing in the room this time to bashing. In this room, there is nothing slashing. Oh, okay.

Also, if you cast a spell whilst you're right next to somebody, nothing can happen. Oh, we can react, can't we? There was a slashing thing, but sorry, I picked it up.

Okay, can I move over here, say, first? If he doesn't have a…

Kasula - TW : 57:03 - 57:15

If he doesn't have a reaction to kill you if you go more than five feet. Oh, okay. I don't know that.

Otherwise, you have to do the step and then another step. Okay.

Delor - HT : 57:17 - 57:39

So, do we have a way of casting spells on defensive or is that just you take your chances? I don't know. Oh, well, I'll just take my chance then.

I will clobber him with the armchair that's over here. Okay. Is that within your waiting hours, an armchair?

Tazre - TE : 57:42 - 57:44

A cushion from the armchair.

Delor - HT : 57:44 - 58:19

A cushion, yes. Well, yeah, it's going to have to be a bit less than that. It does say a bulk one item.

What's a bulk one item again? It's a bit flexible, but it's the sort of thing that's like a sword or something. Yeah, I think the armchair is too big for you.

That's a bit bigger than a sword. Coffee table? Again, same.

I'll say that at the moment. A left lying around wine bottle.

Tazre - TE : 58:23 - 58:24

A lamp on the table.

Delor - HT : 58:24 - 58:27

A lamp. There is a lamp on the wall.

Tazre - TE : 58:29 - 58:33

There's something glowing in the middle of the table. Any thrown daggers or bolts?

Delor - HT : 58:33 - 1:00:13

Yeah, yeah, yeah, a lamp on the table. You can have the lamp on the table. Okay, so it goes clunk.

And it's a roll of five. What was it last week when we were talking about Tim? I vaguely remember.

Something about rolling lots of really good rolls. I'm cursed this week. Is he reacting to me?

Not prompting you. I was just trying to de-illuminate from that, whatever it is on the table. No.

I can't see a reactive thing on him, so I'm going to say no. He says without any confidence whatsoever. Okay, then I shall cast a shield spell.

You sort of waggle your fingers. It's clearly not obvious. I'm going with this.

And it's more focused on killing the cleric. Okay. And the crown.

Cedar, who is near death. Right. Disintegrate.

Disintegrate.

Kasula - TW : 1:00:16 - 1:00:39

Then, I'll get this bastard. Now, let's try. Might hit.

Tazre - TE : 1:00:50 - 1:00:51

Divine Lance.

Kasula - TW : 1:00:52 - 1:01:02

Now, let's see. Boom. Chaotic Divine Lance.

Delor - HT : 1:01:03 - 1:01:10

And I will target him first. Oh, I thought I had.

Tazre - TE : 1:01:11 - 1:01:12

We can't tell.

Kasula - TW : 1:01:13 - 1:01:15

I've got little red dotty arrows.

Delor - HT : 1:01:15 - 1:01:25

I forget all the time, so I'm just trying to remind people when it happens. Kapow. Ooh.

That's another one done. Ooh, so close to a crit.

Kasula - TW : 1:01:27 - 1:01:37

And then, I roll damage. Seven points.

Delor - HT : 1:01:40 - 1:01:48

Okay, your multicoloured spectra array launches from your hand. Smacks into him. He looks in disbelief as he collapses to the ground.

GM - PB : 1:01:52 - 1:01:54

Sam, don't do it again!

Kasula - TW : 1:01:56 - 1:02:22

I was actually somewhat gutted. This was the first opportunity I would have had to have my Divine Focus spell and use it. I didn't react in time to say, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, I could do it.

Which would have been fun and interesting.

Delor - HT : 1:02:23 - 1:02:24

What's your Divine Focus spell?

Kasula - TW : 1:02:26 - 1:02:30

It is, what's it called?

Delor - HT : 1:02:30 - 1:02:50

Sudden Shift. Which basically, if somebody misses me, I can effectively instantly cast this, take a step and get concealed. Cool.

Right. We just snoop.

Tazre - TE : 1:02:50 - 1:02:52

Yes, evaluate.

Delor - HT : 1:02:52 - 1:03:23

Do I get an attack of opportunity if he moves out? I do have that as a reaction. If a creature within your reach moves out or leaves a square during a move action it's using, do I get a chance to slash at his ankles as he goes?

You might do. We're talking about reactive strike here, are we? I have reactive strike and I have attack of opportunity.

Kasula - TW : 1:03:24 - 1:03:32

Because it's a reaction, you're allowed one reaction per thing, so you haven't used it so far.

Delor - HT : 1:03:32 - 1:05:03

And he did a move rather than a step. He did, yes. Yes, you can have a strike against him.

Excellent. Then I shall give it… I shan't bother doing anything like…

I'm moving back so you can have your… Target him. Target him, yep.

He is targeted and I miss, I think. You move around as he's obviously lost interest in you. And run away.

He runs to here and tries to dive through the window. Might not be enough. 15's the target.

He crashes into the window, doesn't go flying through it, but is halfway through it at the end of his action. I'm going to take something up behind. I'm looking forward to this next round.

Tazri.

Tazre - TE : 1:05:04 - 1:05:08

Well, the question is, can I get to him in the window before he gets out?

Delor - HT : 1:05:08 - 1:05:09

You shoot him.

Tazre - TE : 1:05:10 - 1:05:11

I can't because I've dropped my bow.

Delor - HT : 1:05:14 - 1:05:17

He's struggling to get out at the moment. He's, you know, you might be able to.

Tazre - TE : 1:05:24 - 1:05:31

That gets me close enough. Yep. I'll just give him one stabby stabbing.

Delor - HT : 1:05:36 - 1:05:37

Bloody piece of…

Tazre - TE : 1:05:41 - 1:05:42

He's not going out the window.

Delor - HT : 1:05:44 - 1:05:52

He's sticking one up the jacksie and he slumps out. Sort of half in, half out. My grunt.

Tazre - TE : 1:05:53 - 1:05:57

Yes. Sofa.

Kiri - DF : 1:05:58 - 1:05:59

My grunt.

Kasula - TW : 1:06:08 - 1:06:11

Only after I've taken one, you're in much better health than I am.

Tazre - TE : 1:06:12 - 1:06:14

You can do it now, yes, that's better.

Delor - HT : 1:06:18 - 1:06:25

All right. Sofa. Look on the sofa.

Dead.

Tazre - TE : 1:06:32 - 1:06:40

Pete, I have put in the NPCs, I put a party loot thing.

Delor - HT : 1:06:42 - 1:06:44

I thought that was what the treasure NPC was for.

Tazre - TE : 1:06:45 - 1:06:51

This one works slightly differently. If you drag it onto the map now, you can use it to loot the bodies.

Delor - HT : 1:07:00 - 1:07:51

Onto the map rather than into the party, yes? Yes. Okay.

Right, I will do that in just two ticks. Yep. I'm sure something's supposed to happen here.

Exploration. With the exploration and aftermath, you've got this slot available thing. What's supposed to go there?

Tazre - TE : 1:07:57 - 1:07:58

I don't know.

Kasula - TW : 1:08:03 - 1:08:04

Sorry, Tim?

Tazre - TE : 1:08:06 - 1:08:07

We're getting closer.

Delor - HT : 1:08:10 - 1:08:14

That's to the level, yeah. So I moved loot NPC.

Tazre - TE : 1:08:15 - 1:08:27

Yeah, so now if you double-click on it, you'll get the sheet for the loot box. And on the right-hand side, there's a, you target an NPC, and then you can go loot target.

Delor - HT : 1:08:43 - 1:08:45

Sorry, repeat that last bit to me.

Tazre - TE : 1:08:47 - 1:08:56

If you double-click on the avatar you just put on the tabletop…

Delor - HT : 1:08:56 - 1:08:58

Yeah, so I've opened it up. It says party loot.

Tazre - TE : 1:08:59 - 1:09:20

Yep. And on the left-hand side, there's a loot selected token. So you highlight the token and do loot selected token, and it will put it all into the party loot box, in theory.

Delor - HT : 1:09:20 - 1:09:30

All right. Can I grab more than one at a time?

Tazre - TE : 1:09:31 - 1:09:33

Not that I can find at the moment.

Delor - HT : 1:09:33 - 1:09:37

I'm just inching my way forward. You can. You can just shift.

Tazre - TE : 1:09:38 - 1:09:38

All right.

Delor - HT : 1:09:54 - 1:09:55

So it seemed to add stuff.

Tazre - TE : 1:09:56 - 1:10:19

Yep. And we can now see that in the same way we can see the treasure NPC, because we've got access to it as well. But we can't see the bits on the left-hand side.

But in theory…

Delor - HT : 1:10:20 - 1:10:46

I've got nothing useful. Like, there's no, like, you're talking, Howard, we can't see. No, like, beer or wine.

I see things like battered breastplate and plus one greataxe. Is that correct? In party loot?

The new party loot icon, if I'm correct.

Tazre - TE : 1:10:48 - 1:10:55

Interesting. Yes. It shouldn't have necessarily done…

It should have done unidentified greataxe.

Delor - HT : 1:10:55 - 1:10:56

Yeah. Yeah.

Tazre - TE : 1:10:57 - 1:10:58

Although, was it?

Delor - HT : 1:10:59 - 1:11:01

An unusual mace, too.

Tazre - TE : 1:11:01 - 1:11:09

An unusual… An unusually fine piece. What does that do?

Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine.

Delor - HT : 1:11:10 - 1:11:29

I would very much like to have one of the… There's down quantity seven healing potions. I'd very much like to have one or more of those.

Yeah. But first, there's a bound figure on the sofa. Yeah, let's go help him out.

I'm going to go and cut them free.

Kasula - TW : 1:11:34 - 1:11:36

Where is this loot NPC?

Tazre - TE : 1:11:37 - 1:11:38

In the NPC section.

Delor - HT : 1:11:38 - 1:11:40

It's a chest in the middle of the room.

Kasula - TW : 1:11:42 - 1:11:43

In the middle of the room.

Delor - HT : 1:11:46 - 1:11:47

So you can just see…

Kasula - TW : 1:11:47 - 1:11:51

Now I can see it. Okay. You're right.

Tazre - TE : 1:11:52 - 1:11:55

And if you double click on it, it will open up the party loot chest.

Delor - HT : 1:12:00 - 1:13:22

Okay. There is a… To keep the steam flowing, you stack her to your feet, and there's a pale-skinned female elf who's tied up and currently gagged, lying on the sofa.

She kind of… Untie and gag. I just cut her about…

Cut it all off with my very sharp knife. You vaguely recall seeing her at the meal the night before, though she wasn't at your table. Thank you, G.

You're welcome, love. Mutters rubbing her wrists. He's…

I mopped some of my blood from her. I probably bled on her while I was cutting her loose, because I'm bleeding like a stuck pig. She stands up and goes over to the corner, and to where you see a scythe, which she grabs.

May she down. That well-known fighting weapon. Apparently they wanted some people for…

Tazre - TE : 1:13:23 - 1:13:24

Sacrifice?

Delor - HT : 1:13:24 - 1:13:40

No. Insurance. Ah.

Of course, insurance. In the sewer ants. I'm busy.

I ignore her and loot the bodies and lay the bodies out ready to be given to God.

Kasula - TW : 1:13:42 - 1:13:53

I think that both Delore and myself should consume a healing potion out of this newfound bounty of healing potions.

Delor - HT : 1:13:59 - 1:14:08

Oh, there's seven of them. Haven't I told you I love you? Seven?

You probably should, yeah, on your 40 points.

Kasula - TW : 1:14:08 - 1:14:11

Aye. So I'm going to…

Delor - HT : 1:14:11 - 1:14:17

That's effectively enough for one each, and for you two to drink some. Yeah, I'm just…

Kasula - TW : 1:14:19 - 1:14:20

So I'm just grabbing one.

Delor - HT : 1:14:21 - 1:14:35

Oh. Ah. Where'd they all go?

They've all… Someone's grabbed them all. LAUGHTER It wasn't me.

Who's got seven? Tazri. Tazri is the guilty person.

Kasula - TW : 1:14:36 - 1:14:38

How many did Tazri get?

Tazre - TE : 1:14:39 - 1:14:42

I didn't think… I thought I only grabbed one.

Delor - HT : 1:14:45 - 1:14:46

Well, he's stuck to your…

Kasula - TW : 1:14:48 - 1:14:56

Ah. Interestingly, Tazri takes a healing potion, Tazri takes a healing potion, and I took seven.

Tazre - TE : 1:14:57 - 1:14:59

Oh, so you blame me? Ah.

Kasula - TW : 1:15:00 - 1:15:19

So that means nine of them should have come out, but that can't be true, so I couldn't have taken actually seven. If you'd picked up two, then… I hadn't.

It would have been five more, wouldn't it? So…

Tazre - TE : 1:15:20 - 1:15:21

So put some back.

Kasula - TW : 1:15:22 - 1:15:22

I need to put…

Tazre - TE : 1:15:23 - 1:15:26

I've just put… I've just put one back. Yep.

Kasula - TW : 1:15:29 - 1:15:29

All right.

Tazre - TE : 1:15:30 - 1:15:34

Oh, no, I haven't. I put back a lesser, which is interesting, because they were minors.

Delor - HT : 1:15:35 - 1:15:37

No, they were lessers. Oh, they were lessers. They were seven lessers.

Tazre - TE : 1:15:37 - 1:15:39

All right, OK. All right.

Delor - HT : 1:15:39 - 1:15:40

I thought they were minors.

Tazre - TE : 1:15:40 - 1:15:41

I thought they were minors.

Kasula - TW : 1:15:42 - 1:15:49

You said lessers. That's what's on the… Yeah, that's what's being moved around.

You can see it in the log. It's healing potion lesser.

Tazre - TE : 1:15:50 - 1:15:56

OK. So I put back one, and you put back…

Delor - HT : 1:15:56 - 1:16:01

How do you break a stack? You put them back, and then it gives you a number.

Tazre - TE : 1:16:01 - 1:16:02

Yeah.

Delor - HT : 1:16:02 - 1:16:04

Oh, right. OK. So…

Tazre - TE : 1:16:04 - 1:16:09

Which is what you didn't do. When I did it, it came up, how many do you want? And I said one.

Fantastic.

Delor - HT : 1:16:09 - 1:16:52

I thought that's what I did, but… It's gone again. I stole that one.

I stole that one. Cool, cool. Right.

So I've got to give you that many. OK. I see two dots of five.

That's possibly too many. We're multiplying. This is excellent.

All we have to do is pass it backwards and forwards, and as we do, they spawn. Yeah. And I still think they are minor.

I don't know. That's the three healing potions. So…

Tazre - TE : 1:16:55 - 1:16:58

So I've now taken one.

Kasula - TW : 1:17:00 - 1:17:08

Right. There were seven to start with. And lesser, I don't think I had one.

I do have one in my inventory now, so I've got one.

Tazre - TE : 1:17:08 - 1:17:24

So we can delete one of the fives that are on there, because it shouldn't be there. So one of the fives is gone, so we're now down to five.

Delor - HT : 1:17:24 - 1:17:28

So if I double click it, do I have to click on that and say…

Tazre - TE : 1:17:28 - 1:17:32

No, no, no. No, because give is to give it to somebody else, not you.

Delor - HT : 1:17:33 - 1:17:34

OK, so I have to…

Tazre - TE : 1:17:34 - 1:17:37

Drag it onto your token.

Delor - HT : 1:17:37 - 1:17:41

OK. Not my token, not my character sheet.

Tazre - TE : 1:17:41 - 1:17:47

Or either. Either. I haven't worked.

Well, actually, it's also open.

Delor - HT : 1:17:48 - 1:17:57

How many do I want times two? I'm going to take one and keep one, if I may. Yeah.

And ladies?

Tazre - TE : 1:17:57 - 1:17:58

Yeah, so we're down to three.

Kasula - TW : 1:17:59 - 1:18:01

So I need to take another one.

Tazre - TE : 1:18:12 - 1:18:14

I have taken the unusual eyepiece.

Delor - HT : 1:18:18 - 1:18:21

Interesting. That probably… I don't know what it is.

Tazre - TE : 1:18:22 - 1:18:27

I figured it's probably a TV thing. That he was a sneaky TV person.

Kasula - TW : 1:18:28 - 1:18:30

Possibly a rangy thing.

Tazre - TE : 1:18:31 - 1:18:33

Either way, they both work for me.

Delor - HT : 1:18:42 - 1:19:07

Very strange. I had no healing potions. I dragged one onto my system.

I now have five. I have one liner and two… And I have two lots of two lessers.

I think I should only have two lessers. So I'm happy to delete those from my token.

Tazre - TE : 1:19:08 - 1:19:12

Yes. Maybe there's a little feature here that it's dragging more than you say.

Delor - HT : 1:19:14 - 1:19:20

Yeah, I was certain I only took two. So I've got two lessers and I'm going to take one now.

Tazre - TE : 1:19:21 - 1:19:25

And there are now two lessers left back on the…

Delor - HT : 1:19:39 - 1:20:05

I have one left and I'm feeling a lot better. I will just sit on the sofa and just sit in reverie for a moment. Just loving that feeling.

All right. A bit of self-reflections from you. If I wanted to give you some XP, I know I've done this before.

I can't remember how I did it.

Tazre - TE : 1:20:06 - 1:20:14

On the bottom you've got the four characters in their little thingy. There's a little… One of the buttons on the left-hand side is…

Delor - HT : 1:20:14 - 1:21:01

Ah, a sign-in speaker. I cannot send if no access. Okay, so I need to select you first.

So, who are you? I've got three of you.

Kasula - TW : 1:21:02 - 1:21:10

Who didn't come up? Probably me because I'm trapped underneath a blood splat.

Tazre - TE : 1:21:10 - 1:21:17

Just use the left and right keys to move yourself out from underneath. Practically not everybody.

Kasula - TW : 1:21:21 - 1:21:22

There you go, you should be able to get me now.

Tazre - TE : 1:21:26 - 1:21:28

But someone else has gone under the blood splat.

Delor - HT : 1:21:30 - 1:21:35

No, you're definitely selected. That's weird.

Tazre - TE : 1:21:35 - 1:21:43

Well, it was interesting because he wasn't showing up in the combat tracker. He was getting his turn, but he wasn't showing up in the list.

Delor - HT : 1:21:44 - 1:22:31

Yeah, I noticed that. Let's move that away. He did it twice.

You get another 30 XP for rescuing. Oh, she introduced herself.

Tazre - TE : 1:22:32 - 1:22:34

Well, we're 50 short.

Delor - HT : 1:22:38 - 1:22:40

Jathel. That one.

Tazre - TE : 1:22:43 - 1:22:43

Tazreen.

Delor - HT : 1:22:44 - 1:22:46

She's only worth 50 XP.

Tazre - TE : 1:22:47 - 1:22:48

No, she was worth 30.

Delor - HT : 1:22:51 - 1:23:09

What was her name? Jathel. J-A-E-T-H-A-L.

Male female elf. Female elf, yeah. Make a perception roll.

Tazre - TE : 1:23:12 - 1:23:13

Can I do that as well?

Delor - HT : 1:23:13 - 1:23:26

Yeah, anybody can. Everybody can. You don't have to, but you can do.

I'm going to give myself minus two just for fun. Because I'm really not there.

Tazre - TE : 1:23:27 - 1:23:32

I've got 19. Catch who they've got.

Delor - HT : 1:23:33 - 1:23:34

How do I get my HUD thing back?

Tazre - TE : 1:23:34 - 1:23:36

No, Dolores really isn't there.

Delor - HT : 1:23:36 - 1:23:43

I am just loving that. That last potion was just magnificent. How do I get my HUD thing back?

Tazre - TE : 1:23:47 - 1:23:53

You probably should hit the arrow at the top left. There's an arrow there now, which will…

GM - PB : 1:23:54 - 1:23:54

Yeah.

Tazre - TE : 1:23:58 - 1:24:15

At the top where you've got the two rows of five icons, next to the fourth row, there should be a little arrow. Or slightly farther down, depending where you put the HUD. Because you collapsed it.

Delor - HT : 1:24:20 - 1:24:27

Nope, I can't see that. Well, let's see if I can roll it from the thing.

GM - PB : 1:24:48 - 1:24:49

That perception isn't it.

Delor - HT : 1:24:53 - 1:25:16

There you go. Well worth waiting for. I can't see this thing, by the way.

I've no idea where I'm supposed to be looking.

Tazre - TE : 1:25:18 - 1:25:31

When the HUD is collapsed, there'll be a square box, size of a button, with an arrow in it. Yes. Click on that and the HUD reappears.

Delor - HT : 1:25:34 - 1:25:37

The top thing going blood and blades disappears.

Tazre - TE : 1:25:38 - 1:25:47

There's another one. That's an up-down arrow. There should be another one below that, which is a horizontal arrow, which is where your HUD used to be.

Delor - HT : 1:25:48 - 1:25:50

I don't see that.

Tazre - TE : 1:25:50 - 1:25:53

No, but you probably see the HUD.

Delor - HT : 1:25:53 - 1:25:56

Yeah, but I don't see anything to remove it either.

Tazre - TE : 1:25:58 - 1:26:01

If you hover over it on the left-hand side, you'll see another arrow.

Delor - HT : 1:26:02 - 1:26:05

Oh yeah, there's a tiny arrow. Oh, I see it.

Tazre - TE : 1:26:07 - 1:26:11

You click on it and the HUD goes away. You click on it again and the HUD comes back.

Delor - HT : 1:26:13 - 1:26:14

Can you move the HUD?

Tazre - TE : 1:26:14 - 1:26:23

Yes. On the right-hand side, there's a padlock. You undo the padlock, and then you can just grab the HUD and move it.

Delor - HT : 1:26:31 - 1:27:26

Did we really sell the Royal Mail to a man called Kretinsky? I refreshed and it came back. All right.

Kasula. Whilst Jathel is going about her business, you can't help but notice that she just seems to be a bit off. It takes you a few seconds to figure out what it is, but you being a keen lady of the cloth, as it were, draw upon your religious training.

She doesn't appear to be breathing, and she is very pale, now that you've put your finger on it. Um… In fact…

She's dead. I'm entirely convinced she's alive. Undead, yes.

But on the cloth side, she does seem to be reasonably appreciative.

Tazre - TE : 1:27:29 - 1:27:34

Maybe that and the one she wore at a different table. That was the not-eating table.

Delor - HT : 1:27:35 - 1:28:28

Are we against undead? I think it depends, really, doesn't it? If they're trying to kill you, then probably.

If they're not, then who can say? That's one of those interesting questions. In society, undead generally don't have a great reputation, but there are entire areas of Golarion that are ruled by undead, or a lot of undead in them who wander around and have day jobs and so on.

So undead are not uncommon in the world. Where is she? She's standing next to you.

OK. I can't see her token of majesty. No, I haven't put one on for her.

OK.

Kasula - TW : 1:28:31 - 1:28:37

I don't think I've got anything that makes me particularly averse to the undead.

Delor - HT : 1:28:39 - 1:28:43

No, your religion is not one of those that goes against this sort of thing.

Kasula - TW : 1:28:45 - 1:28:48

OK. Different strokes for different folks.

Tazre - TE : 1:28:49 - 1:28:51

Just so long as she doesn't try and bite me in the neck.

Delor - HT : 1:28:52 - 1:28:58

I reverie over Igo and thank my God by laying out the bodies for him.

Tazre - TE : 1:28:59 - 1:29:02

There you go. But if it's moving, don't lay it out.

Delor - HT : 1:29:03 - 1:29:45

Thank you. Good advice. Is she wearing any obvious religious regalia?

Apart from the side, you mean? Yes. I mean, using my knowledge of religion, do I have any idea if she might build a particular sect or group?

Appearance is pale, dark clothing, raven black hair, long, no jewellery, and a scythe.

Kasula - TW : 1:29:46 - 1:30:01

She's a goth. But there is nothing to indicate that she's particularly part of any cult or religion. There's nothing outstanding.

She's just a pale bit with a scythe.

Delor - HT : 1:30:01 - 1:30:17

Is it black clothing or pink clothing? Black. Does she have lace sticking out from various places?

Is there a white horse outside that answers to the name Binky?

Tazre - TE : 1:30:17 - 1:30:17

Binky.

Delor - HT : 1:30:18 - 1:30:44

No Binky and no vampire accoutrements. I was just thinking maybe it's Death's granddaughter. To get back to the important stuff, is there any booze lying around?

No. Why else? We cleared it away.

Tazre - TE : 1:30:46 - 1:30:51

And it took up the establishment we can't get at at the moment.

Delor - HT : 1:30:53 - 1:32:13

Fucking people. There should be barrels left lying around for people who might be peckish or thirsty in the middle of the night. Loot the bodies, leave it in a pile for everyone.

Did you notice my alignment was grumpy drunk? Yep. I'm just trying to see if there's anything other about her.

There's no religious accoutrements. I'm going to look behind the sofa just in case. You find a peanut.

A short while later you hear sounds coming from back down the corridor towards the main area. And a door bursts open. There's a sort of coughing and a way waft of smoke comes in.

You see a couple of guards and Lady Jumanji. She'd die down in a bit. She's waving.

No, they've died now.

Tazre - TE : 1:32:15 - 1:32:17

There were some more ruffians in here, my lady.

Delor - HT : 1:32:18 - 1:32:22

They're not ruffian anymore. You dealt with them, I see.

Tazre - TE : 1:32:23 - 1:32:31

They were keeping this fine elf lady hostage.

Delor - HT : 1:32:34 - 1:33:27

Ah, another from the feast. I'm glad you survived. So many didn't.

Come, let us meet in the great hall. Yes, my lady. She leads you back through to the centre.

Do you want to move us? Or shall we fight our way through? I'll attempt to move you.

I follow her attentively as normal. Some of you may be on top of others. Some of you may be missing.

I don't think the lady would want me there.

Kasula - TW : 1:33:36 - 1:33:38

It's Lady Jumanji.

Delor - HT : 1:33:42 - 1:34:24

Unless the knife didn't make it. Yep, curiously because someone cut his natches off and someone hit him over the head. Indeed, yes.

So this is not the full complement of people in here, but it is… All the important players. Yeah, you've got some guards as well.

Who are coughing a bit. Right. Sitting at the end of the table, my legs looking with big puppy eyes at her.

She tries not to focus on that too much.

Tazre - TE : 1:34:25 - 1:34:26

Or at all.

Delor - HT : 1:34:28 - 1:34:38

It seems that we have repelled the attack. No small thanks to you, brave fellows and ladies.

Tazre - TE : 1:34:41 - 1:34:42

You're most welcome.

Delor - HT : 1:34:44 - 1:35:58

So, congratulations. She eyes the sword that you're holding. I see you found the chest where a number of things were stashed.

Oh yes. Yes, is this yours? We needed it whilst fighting.

It is mine, but you have made good use of it. Therefore I shall give it to you as a present. May you use it well.

It's very well balanced. I suspect I don't know quite what it does. She points to the rune of striking embedded into the blade.

I think myself that I should notice that. I feel like a flakking idiot. Hard to spot unless you know what you're looking for, she says.

However, with that, there was some pouches of money, the payroll for the brave lads and their family.

Tazre - TE : 1:36:00 - 1:36:02

I'll go and hand it over.

Delor - HT : 1:36:03 - 1:36:04

You had it, did you?

Tazre - TE : 1:36:05 - 1:36:13

Yes, of course I fucking had it. You lot said keep it in the safe or keep it in the chest. I wasn't going to let that happen, so I had to swallow it.

Delor - HT : 1:36:16 - 1:36:29

Good. Thank you. This money in your safekeeping and your honourable return of it does you credit.

And she gives you a little bow there, Tassery.

Tazre - TE : 1:36:30 - 1:36:37

You're most welcome. As I turn away, I mumble a bit saying, damn, I thought we got away with that.

Delor - HT : 1:36:43 - 1:36:50

Also, there was a mace with it. If you wish to keep it, you can. We saw the mace.

Tazre - TE : 1:36:51 - 1:36:54

What is it? It's a mace.

Delor - HT : 1:36:55 - 1:36:55

It's a magical mace.

Tazre - TE : 1:36:57 - 1:37:00

Unless one of us actually can use a mace, we might as well give it back.

Delor - HT : 1:37:02 - 1:37:08

Isn't mace a clerical weapon? Not on which clerical you are.

Kasula - TW : 1:37:09 - 1:37:14

Obviously you are, and no, darling, a mace is not for me.

Delor - HT : 1:37:16 - 1:37:17

Give her a whip.

Kasula - TW : 1:37:19 - 1:37:23

I prefer my whip for when I'm getting down to that kind of business.

Delor - HT : 1:37:25 - 1:37:31

I love weapons, and I would love to add it to my collection, even though it's not a preferred weapon.

Tazre - TE : 1:37:32 - 1:37:34

You've got three swords. You can't carry everything.

Delor - HT : 1:37:35 - 1:37:36

Oh, but I want it.

Tazre - TE : 1:37:37 - 1:37:39

No, you can't have it. Give the mace back.

Delor - HT : 1:37:39 - 1:37:49

Okay. Looking at that loot NPC, I see that his bulk level is a little on the high side, so you can't take all the crap that's with it.

Tazre - TE : 1:37:50 - 1:38:06

Yeah, if you drag it into this room, we can do a bit of culling of stuff we're not going to keep. Because there's no point us taking tons of leather armor and things like that.

Delor - HT : 1:38:09 - 1:38:27

Indeed. Oh, there it is. It's come hovering in.

It's quite odd, the slight delay as it makes its way down there. It's not instant. We don't need these hand crossbows, do we?

No.

Tazre - TE : 1:38:29 - 1:38:34

That's interesting. On the one you've got, there's a delete. On here, there isn't a delete.

Delor - HT : 1:38:35 - 1:39:16

What is the unusual nature of the Great Axe, my lady? Ah, well, it was used by the leader. It's likely to be magical in some way.

Do we hand it over? We hand it over. It is your victory that you hand it back.

Keep it. You may find it useful. I think there are two healing potions left.

Tazre - TE : 1:39:17 - 1:39:22

Yeah. Well, there shouldn't be. They should have all been distributed.

Delor - HT : 1:39:23 - 1:39:26

There would have been one left, not two.

GM - PB : 1:39:26 - 1:39:26

Yeah.

Tazre - TE : 1:39:28 - 1:39:38

Well, I would suggest we give them whatever's left. Give them to the healer, because he's the one who's keeping the bleeding lunatic in check.

Kasula - TW : 1:39:40 - 1:39:43

Fair enough. I'll grab those last two lesses.

Tazre - TE : 1:39:44 - 1:39:48

Yep. Now, do we need the…

Delor - HT : 1:39:48 - 1:39:51

What in front is the… Do we need them?

Tazre - TE : 1:39:51 - 1:40:03

Pete? No. Pete, on your version of it, on the left-hand side, there's a button to distribute the coinage.

I haven't actually tried that.

Delor - HT : 1:40:04 - 1:40:07

All right. Shall I see what happens if I click on it?

Tazre - TE : 1:40:07 - 1:40:11

Yeah, because we've got 20 silver there, so…

Delor - HT : 1:40:13 - 1:40:44

Distribute coins. What advantage does a battered breastplate give me? It gives me plus 4 AC, but reduces my dex to 1.

And minus 5 on speed. Yeah, for you it's probably not worth it, because you've got really good dex. Yeah.

Okay, so I distributed the coins, and you each got 5 silver pieces.

Kasula - TW : 1:40:47 - 1:40:56

Hurray! As long as I've got enough strength, studded leather would give me an extra point.

Delor - HT : 1:40:59 - 1:41:00

Yeah, fortunately I can't wear it.

Tazre - TE : 1:41:03 - 1:41:05

What about a chainmail? Would that be a viable option?

Delor - HT : 1:41:07 - 1:41:13

The chainmail's actually not as good as the battered breastplates in terms of spec.

Tazre - TE : 1:41:14 - 1:41:15

No, but in terms of…

Delor - HT : 1:41:15 - 1:41:21

Not less bulk. Also, the battered breastplate is large.

Tazre - TE : 1:41:22 - 1:41:24

Yes, it wouldn't fit you anyway.

Kasula - TW : 1:41:24 - 1:41:24

Yeah.

Tazre - TE : 1:41:25 - 1:41:25

Too big.

Kasula - TW : 1:41:25 - 1:41:28

I'm going to try grabbing this studded leather armor.

Delor - HT : 1:41:30 - 1:41:35

Okay. Oh, 20. Oh, no, it must be more than one of them.

Yeah, that's because…

Tazre - TE : 1:41:36 - 1:41:40

There's lots of them. Don't take ten sets.

Kasula - TW : 1:41:42 - 1:41:43

Well, that was interesting.

Delor - HT : 1:41:44 - 1:41:51

I tried to take one, but it's taken two. Two. My total went down from 10 to 9.

Tazre - TE : 1:41:51 - 1:42:00

But it only took one off the… So there's an issue there. However we're dragging the stuff out of there, it's duplicating.

Kasula - TW : 1:42:01 - 1:42:07

Yeah, because actually I've ended up with two sets of leather.

Tazre - TE : 1:42:08 - 1:42:27

Get rid of one. Over the week I'll have a read-up on this to see if what we're doing is not quite right. It works, but it seems to be duplicating stuff.

Which I have no problem with, but… I'm sure, as a general principle…

Delor - HT : 1:42:27 - 1:42:31

We won't want to check it out yet. Can I take a couple of the bolts?

Tazre - TE : 1:42:32 - 1:42:34

You can take as many bolts as you want.

Delor - HT : 1:42:36 - 1:42:57

Just double-checking. I'm not used to being given stuff. Now we kind of know what the unusualness of the longsword is, do you have to update the description?

Tazre - TE : 1:42:59 - 1:43:11

If it's correct, you just go and change the thing from unusual to what it really is. Not you, but Pete can go and change it in the item.

Delor - HT : 1:43:12 - 1:43:14

Or I could drag one in from…

Tazre - TE : 1:43:14 - 1:43:26

No, no, no, no. Pete, because it's a specific thing. In the definition, Pete's got access to the thing.

We can just toggle it from unidentified to identified, and it will magically be the right thing.

Delor - HT : 1:43:27 - 1:43:31

Magically be the right thing. That seems somehow appropriate.

Tazre - TE : 1:43:33 - 1:43:34

Or if you want, I can do it.

Delor - HT : 1:43:35 - 1:43:39

Sorry, Louise, I should try to…

Tazre - TE : 1:43:39 - 1:43:41

Go to his character sheet.

Delor - HT : 1:43:43 - 1:44:14

Edit item, mystification, identified. Wow, that just changed for me. And it says magical, blah, blah, blah.

Does that look right to you now? It now says longsword, and it has magical as a whatever. I'm just going to double-check.

Tazre - TE : 1:44:24 - 1:44:27

Yeah, it's got a potency rune of plus one.

Delor - HT : 1:44:29 - 1:44:33

Okay, I am still looking for that, but…

Tazre - TE : 1:44:34 - 1:44:37

If you edit the item…

Delor - HT : 1:44:40 - 1:44:46

Edit the item. Oh, okay. Details.

Tazre - TE : 1:44:47 - 1:44:47

Yeah.

Delor - HT : 1:44:48 - 1:44:53

Okay, so, yeah, edit potency rune, weapon potency plus one.

Tazre - TE : 1:44:53 - 1:44:59

If you want to make it so you remember that's what it is, you can go and change its name to longsword plus one.

Delor - HT : 1:45:06 - 1:45:07

Which I have just done.

GM - PB : 1:45:09 - 1:45:09

Oh, wow.

Delor - HT : 1:45:12 - 1:45:16

I could put a space in, but it seemed to work.

Tazre - TE : 1:45:16 - 1:45:20

It did, but now you've got longsword plus one as opposed to longsword plus one.

Delor - HT : 1:45:21 - 1:45:32

Well, yeah, okay. I could put a comma plus one, but yeah. That works adequately well to remind me that that is the magical one.

Tazre - TE : 1:45:34 - 1:45:39

Interestingly, Pete said it has a striking rune as opposed to a potency rune.

Delor - HT : 1:45:40 - 1:45:41

I may have got that wrong.

Tazre - TE : 1:45:41 - 1:45:42

All right, okay.

Delor - HT : 1:45:52 - 1:46:54

Great. Over the next period of time, you can dig around with the treasure as you see fit. But we'll move on till morning.

Does she have any explanation as to who they were, why they might want to have interfered with her gathering? She's too busy to give you an explanation right now, but you suspect that if you wait until morning then one may be forthcoming. And I shall read the box, because I am a screen monkey.

Does this mean we get a long rest thing? Yeah. Oh, several hours, yes.

You collapse down into your beds and you hear the sounds of people coming in and dragging out dead bodies, that sort of thing.

Tazre - TE : 1:46:55 - 1:47:00

Can't go and help. If you don't want any rest.

Delor - HT : 1:47:00 - 1:49:08

Yeah. It's shocking how quickly Lady Jomandy's staff have restored the manor's great hall in the space of a few morning hours. Very few signs of the violence of the night before remain, and things have been mostly returned to normal.

There's some smoke damage still. As the adventurers who survived the assault take seats at the tables, other adventurers who arrived just today settle in as well. Even with these newcomers, though, there are far fewer heroes in the hall than there were in the previous evening.

And the atmosphere is serious and sombre as Lady Jomandy steps up to speak. I would like to thank those of you who helped defeat the Black Tears last night, Lady Jomandy beings. It's obvious someone doesn't like our plans to settle the stolen lands.

Well, we're not easily dissuaded, are we? I say no. No, Mum.

No. No! And this morning, she says partly, I would like to issue formal charters to all of you to begin exploring the stolen lands and make them safe for tomorrow's settlers.

What, we've got one day? The first charter we would like to bequeath goes to the group called the Iron Wraiths, she states, with a wave towards a band of four well-armoured adventurers. You remember them from last night.

The tales of your adventures have thrilled many Brevic nobles, and I'm excited to see what you can do with the exploration of the Glenborn Uplands. Your charter is to establish a base for a Brevois there, after dealing with the Tiger Lords, and then to open diplomatic relations with Pitax, from a point of strength. Pitax is a city somewhere off to the west, you've heard of.

These four heavily armoured adventurers wander up to Lady Jumanji, and she hands them charters. You look at them and their gear, they look proficient.

Tazre - TE : 1:49:09 - 1:49:11

Where were they last night, what we could have done with them?

Delor - HT : 1:49:12 - 1:53:17

Yeah, indeed. They definitely have seen some shit. Yeah.

They swagger past and head off outside. She then says, Baron Helys Drelev, as per our previous discussions, your charter is one of specific importance for a Brevois, securing the southern trade routes along the East Selan River and establishing a base for merchant caravans, and barges and life is of utmost importance. Hooktung Slough will be your base of operations.

A dour-looking nobleman takes his charter from Lady Jumanji, with a crisp bow. And he then leaves and walks from the room. He looks a bit self-satisfied, self-important, you would say.

Megar Van, your father Androff has been a faithful friend. Your charter assigns you to the Gnomon Heights, to establish a town with a Vanling host. In time you hope to establish an elderly jewellery school there.

But in the more immediate future we ask you to broker an alliance with the Gnomon Centaurs, who roam the region. I trust you and your fellows are up to the task. I'm bouncing around in excitement when she says jewellery school.

Megar Van, who you did speak to last night, wanders up and accepts a charter from Lady Jumanji. As he walks back he passes by you guys and smiles at you. Once you get established, he says, I'd love to have you come visit so we can set up trade relations.

Good luck. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that'd be great. Who is this?

This is Megar Van. He was at your table. You managed to get some headway with him in your chat, surprisingly, because he was quite hard to beat.

And with a swish of his cape he turns and leaves. I really shouldn't ever play poker, should I? Once he's gone, there's just you and a few other adventurers in here.

And last but certainly not least, last night's heroes. First, I want to thank you again for risking your life to help defend my manor. The courage, gumption and skill you displayed will take you far, I suspect.

For your charters, we're asking you to travel to the southwest, into the region known as the Greenbelt. Sway the wildlands, that includes the forest known as the Nile Marches, and a hill country of the Camelands. We've heard that the bandits have grown particularly aggressive in the Greenbelt, and they need to be stopped before anyone safely settles in the region.

A small trading post in the Rossland hinterlands has been particularly hard hit. I suggest starting there. Once the bandits have been dealt with, we will be ready to bequeath to you more permanent charters to settle the land.

Establish a covenant of your own. And she hands each of you a charter. I've run over.

I bow crisply, because I was impressed by the Baron's bow. And I take my charter reverently. I'll read the small print.

Since she smiles, indulge me as you take it. I thought that I had… How do you put things onto a map?

Tazre - TE : 1:53:31 - 1:53:33

Put things or people.

Delor - HT : 1:53:38 - 1:53:48

A charter type. A thing.

GM - PB : 1:53:53 - 1:53:54

Equipment.

Tazre - TE : 1:54:06 - 1:54:36

Who's taking the treasure? I'm moving it out of the party loot box. You're looting it.

You're looting that loot. Onto the treasure NPC, because ideally at some point we'll empty this of stuff that we're not taking. Rather than having to just keep accumulating shit that we're not using and not ever going to have.

Sell. Yeah, precisely. But this isn't ours to sell.

Delor - HT : 1:54:40 - 1:54:44

Basically, you can take what you want, but anything you don't have, they'll use to…

Tazre - TE : 1:54:44 - 1:54:54

Restock. Yeah, that's why I was… Which is why I moved the ring and the jade necklace off.

Delor - HT : 1:54:55 - 1:55:04

Yeah, I did do that. Could we try to keep the magical items?

Tazre - TE : 1:55:06 - 1:55:09

Unless somebody's going to use them, there's no point.

Delor - HT : 1:55:10 - 1:55:21

Well, we could sell them specifically and individually. Yeah, we could sell them. But also, if you're not going to use them, it would be polite to return them.

Tazre - TE : 1:55:22 - 1:55:28

Yeah, but we'll take the unusual greataxe, because she did say that was effectively ours.

Kiri - DF : 1:55:29 - 1:55:29

Yeah, I didn't know.

Tazre - TE : 1:55:30 - 1:55:38

So I'll move that onto the treasure NPC. And I'll move all the bolts on there as well, because you never know.

Delor - HT : 1:55:41 - 1:55:44

I'm taking a couple of the daggers, just in case I start throwing them.

Tazre - TE : 1:55:45 - 1:55:48

Yeah, well, I was thinking about that. I'm not sure how many I've got at the moment.

Kasula - TW : 1:55:51 - 1:55:52

You never have enough.

Tazre - TE : 1:55:53 - 1:55:57

That was my thought. I've got three at the moment.

Delor - HT : 1:55:58 - 1:56:10

Ah. I've dragged some on and they've doubled, so I'm just deleting a few. So I have five.

Tazre - TE : 1:56:11 - 1:56:15

Interestingly, I dragged the bolts on and I got the whole… I did 19 and I got 19.

Delor - HT : 1:56:16 - 1:56:32

I dragged four on and it worked beautifully for the bolts. I can't quite figure out how to stick on a message, a thing, onto the map at the moment. So if you have a look in Signal, you should be able to see the chart.

Tazre - TE : 1:56:33 - 1:56:48

All right. Well, you can stick it in the journal within Foundry. You can create a journal entry and paste it in.

Delor - HT : 1:56:51 - 1:57:06

Are we in the Broken Lands or River Kingdoms? We're top right, aren't we, of the Kingmaker world map? Of Galarian, yes.

We're top right, yeah.

Kasula - TW : 1:57:13 - 1:57:28

That's why you wouldn't download this as WebP. Is that a problem? It's all right.

Not so many things work with WebP yet.

Tazre - TE : 1:57:36 - 1:57:39

Lots of stuff works with WebP.

Delor - HT : 1:57:40 - 1:58:27

But not as many as work with PNG. Yeah. Yeah, you had me taking it twice, but I know I only clicked that once.

Anyway, all done. Yeah, Tim, it's somehow recorded that you've got two lots of two daggers.

Tazre - TE : 1:58:28 - 1:58:40

Yeah. No. But interestingly enough, it only seems to have added two daggers.

Unless it's put another one somewhere else.

Delor - HT : 1:58:42 - 1:58:46

Yeah, I get two lines each with two daggers.

Tazre - TE : 1:58:46 - 1:58:52

Anyway. Yeah, well, I've got one with five daggers and one with one dagger.

GM - PB : 1:59:09 - 1:59:10

Shouldn't be this hard.

Delor - HT : 1:59:17 - 2:00:01

You must select a file to proceed. I have. I don't know.

It's defeating me. I'm not going to worry too much about it right now. Anyway, so you've got a copy of it there.

Tazre - TE : 2:00:02 - 2:00:02

Yeah.

Delor - HT : 2:00:05 - 2:00:15

She goes up to you, Dolor. Jump to my feet and stand her attention. Peels you off to one side.

Tazre - TE : 2:00:18 - 2:00:20

Stabs you in the gut just for the fun of it.

Delor - HT : 2:00:21 - 2:02:10

Why not? Everybody else does. Thank you, ma'am.

May I have another? It gives me great honour to have somebody who represents the Aldori dueling to be going out there. I hope that you will succeed in your endeavours.

Please be careful, though. Your fearlessness knows no bounds, but a modicum of caution. I would like to see you survive.

With the aid of my healers, ma'am, I look forward to surviving. Oh, God. Is there a bit of Dolor's body that hasn't been hit yet?

No, I am. I am pretty much scar tissue. Just be careful.

Yes, ma'am. Right. Do we have a map where our bit is?

There's the Kingmaker world map, but I don't see us on it. Okay. So, yes.

That is very much going to be for the next session. Okay. I thought we were up here.

Here's the map. No, we have no visibility.

Tazre - TE : 2:02:11 - 2:02:24

I did have, you've just dragged us all to test 55. Yes. And you've got Fog of War or something, so we can't see it.

Delor - HT : 2:02:24 - 2:02:41

Oh, God. Ambience. Lighting.

Why are there six tokens?

Tazre - TE : 2:02:44 - 2:02:45

That's because there's six of us.

Kasula - TW : 2:02:48 - 2:02:50

Including the loot NPC.

Tazre - TE : 2:02:51 - 2:02:54

No, there can be twice. Oh, the map's turning up.

Delor - HT : 2:02:55 - 2:02:59

Yes, I see the map. Okay. Lovely border.

Tazre - TE : 2:02:59 - 2:03:03

Still without it. Very wide.

Delor - HT : 2:03:05 - 2:03:15

I'm still zooming it. Oh, there it is. That's the edge.

No, I've lost. I think this is the right map. And I think you start off roughly in the top right-hand corner.

Tazre - TE : 2:03:18 - 2:03:21

Are the lines roads or rivers?

Kasula - TW : 2:03:22 - 2:03:30

Rivers, by the looks of it. They're going in and out of light. So where is the Shrike and Skunk rivers?

Delor - HT : 2:03:31 - 2:03:42

No, I don't think we're going to be able to do that. Such questions can wait for next time when I have those answers to hand. Okay.

Fair enough. Where's the civilisations where they have inns?

Tazre - TE : 2:03:45 - 2:03:49

That's another question that will be answered next time with the answer, there are none.

Delor - HT : 2:03:49 - 2:04:09

Yes, there are none. Okay, well, I'm going to have to stock up for a long time. The place he suggests you start off at might have, I think it does have an inn.

Oh, right. And it's the Greenbelt and Gnarl Hills. Where are they?

Tazre - TE : 2:04:11 - 2:04:15

We will find out next week. The map has no details on it.

Delor - HT : 2:04:16 - 2:04:17

You know as much as I do.

Tazre - TE : 2:04:17 - 2:04:20

I had to guess.

Kasula - TW : 2:04:20 - 2:04:23

This looks kind of like Greenbelt East.

Tazre - TE : 2:04:25 - 2:04:30

It all looks like desert to me, so forget it. There's trees in the middle.

Kasula - TW : 2:04:32 - 2:04:39

Yeah, it's all trees. A bit marshy around the edges. Very marshy over here.

Delor - HT : 2:04:43 - 2:04:55

And there's bandits in there. Excellent. Let's find it again.

There go whomps and bandits. Striking wildly.

GM - PB : 2:04:56 - 2:05:01

Is that some kind of volcano caldera thing?

Delor - HT : 2:05:03 - 2:05:06

Oh, what, this one? Up here.

Tazre - TE : 2:05:08 - 2:05:09

That's really helpful.

Delor - HT : 2:05:10 - 2:05:16

There's two. Yeah. There's kind of one here and one here.

Kasula - TW : 2:05:21 - 2:05:26

Though that does look like it's a map template. Yeah, it does.

Delor - HT : 2:05:28 - 2:05:55

It does rather, yeah. Or it could be one of those freaks of nature. Where you have two places that are almost identical.

Like all of the mountains in the line of mountains. It's one of the wonders of the Galerian world. They need somebody with way too much time on their hands.

Tazre - TE : 2:05:56 - 2:06:01

The gods were just too busy. They just said, right, copy that one.

Delor - HT : 2:06:02 - 2:06:23

They had some templates. They got the replicate tool out. Cool, Raoul.

We shall look forward to exploring the labels upon that map later. How many XP are you short of next level? Fifty.

Fifty? Fifty. Fifty.

Tazre - TE : 2:06:25 - 2:06:31

They're dastardly making it so. Send him back to Abel with Swift.

Kasula - TW : 2:06:33 - 2:06:48

Yeah. Yeah, he needs to go back. He hasn't started displaying any kind of strange leek fetish.

Or a desire for wool in any way, shape or form.

Delor - HT : 2:06:49 - 2:06:51

They want to know if you've got a leek fetish or desire for wool.

Tazre - TE : 2:06:53 - 2:06:54

Oh, it's got a pair of wellies, sorry.

Delor - HT : 2:06:55 - 2:07:02

That's all you need. I have enough XP to level up. So I shall say add.

Tazre - TE : 2:07:04 - 2:07:16

Well, I would say before you do that, because we might. I will have a play to see if we can do it in Path Builder. And then import it without losing all the equipment.

Kasula - TW : 2:07:16 - 2:07:21

Okay. So should we press the add button or not?

Tazre - TE : 2:07:22 - 2:07:40

Not yet. Oops. The service will be up all the time.

So I'll have a play the next day or two with Path Builder. To see if we can do it in that. What the fuck is this?

Because that makes it much easier to understand what you're doing.

Kasula - TW : 2:07:40 - 2:07:50

Yes. Yeah. Well, actually, what I couldn't do is.

I was playing around with level two in Path Builder anyway, couldn't I?

Tazre - TE : 2:07:50 - 2:07:57

Yeah. Yeah, you could. Yeah.

Because if you can't get it to import, you'd have to do it in here manually. But at least you then know what you can do.

Delor - HT : 2:07:59 - 2:08:03

That's concerning. Yeah. So start having a play around with that.

You'll find you have a lot more hit points.

Tazre - TE : 2:08:06 - 2:08:07

Well, a few more hit points.

Delor - HT : 2:08:07 - 2:08:09

How do we select? Can you level in Path Builder?

Tazre - TE : 2:08:11 - 2:08:21

I don't. You can play around in Path Builder to your heart's content.

Delor - HT : 2:08:22 - 2:08:29

Yes. Yes. If you click on level, you can actually, I think, say select.

Select the next level.

Kasula - TW : 2:08:29 - 2:08:31

Yeah, it's at character level.

Delor - HT : 2:08:38 - 2:08:54

So are we playing next week? Which day is it? Oh, it's getting pretty close to Christmas.

The 23rd. I will still be here. I'll be around, but I think my family arrive.

No, they don't arrive until the evening.

Tazre - TE : 2:08:55 - 2:08:56

Oh, that's when we play.

Delor - HT : 2:08:59 - 2:09:21

Probably not. I may have to be sociable. Yeah.

I was expecting it to be disrupted next week. We'll see about the 30th, I guess. I don't know.

We can liaise on that closer to the time. I should be home. All right.

So no session next week.

Kasula - TW : 2:09:25 - 2:09:31

So no session next week. Tentative the week after. Cool.

Thank you, guys.
