- Hello, one and all!

Welcome back to another thrilling episode

of "Dimension 20: Fantasy
High Junior Year."

I'm your humble Dungeon Master, everybody.

And with me, as always,
our Intrepid Heroes.

Say hi, Intrepid Heroes.

- [Everybody] Hi, Intrepid Heroes!

- Last we left off,

our Intrepid Heroes were racing
over the skies of Elmville,

storms wracking the Solisian countryside

as Cassandra/the Nightmare King

had been summoned back as
part of a divine ritual

to re-Ankarnate Porter Cliffbreaker

as a new god of

rage, wrath, w*r, and ruin.

Our wonderful prophet of Cassandra,

seeing her goddess,

brought to bear to conceal this ritual

with some clever divine intervention,

not on her part,

but on the part of her
wizard-made simulacrum

made by one Adaine Abernant

whispered, "Blimey," into a GoPro

strapped to a vulture.

And was-
- Whispered,

"I don't think you heard me."

- I don't think you heard me.
- "Blimey,"

was to the ether,

then turned to the camera and said,

"I don't think you heard me.

Blimey."
- Blimey.

[players laugh]

- A ray of lightning shot
out of the mouth of this god

after a ruinous combat

where dragons were dropping from the sky

as Fig Faeth rode across her
solar Daymare, Gerard Neigh,

to smite Grandmama Blue
Dragon from the stormy skies

as Fabian ran an election

and locked down 300 votes.

- We stopped the steal.

- We stopped the steal, folks.

[players laugh]

- Oh my god!

- We stopped the steal!
- Blimey, we did!

- Blimey!

For the new student body president.

By the way, bear in mind

that in addition to all this
stopping the apocalypse stuff,

Kristen Applebees might be class president

in her senior year.

- God, that'd be so cool!

- [Emily] My president.

- We got the Cloud Rider
Engine back up and running.

Riz was running the cannon
deck along with Eugenia Shadow.

Fabian got a brand new Ghost Step tattoo.

- And then I lost it.

It ran away.

- It ran away somewhere else?
- Hiding on my body.

- Hiding on your body.

- Between your shoulder blades.

- In between your shoulder blades,

a little ghost with feet running back.

- Mid final battle, Fabian
is just naked in a mirror,

being like, "Where is it?"

[players laugh]

I'll come out as soon as I find it!

- I need to go to a dermatologist.

- Yeah.
[players laugh]

- And in a proof that the
dice firmly are not on my side

as a Dungeon Master, but
are on the player's side,

Cassandra intervened and opened wide

her stormy mouth,

that Seacaster Manor might fly through

into skies wracked by rage and ruin,

which is where we now return.

Elmville ain't looking so hot, g*ng.

The Bad Kids have come back

and it is about,

I would say- go ahead, actually,

roll a d10 for me

whoever wants to.
- Siobhan should do it.

Oh, wait.
- Seems like Murph's already-

- You guys want me to get it?

- Yeah.
- I got it.

I got it! I got it!

It's a seven.

- Okay.

It is 10:20 PM

as you arrive back in Elmville.

You know that the election
concludes at midnight.

As the ship sails back in,

many of you are injured,

damage has occurred.

Seacaster Manor, thankfully, intact still.

But Gorgug, as you fly it back in,

you see Elmville stretching out,

you see the cratered hole back

in the Seacaster Manor estate

where the manor would go.

But you still are flying a ship.

Now, I will say the Cloud Rider Engine

doesn't make this a flying ship, per se.

So without vapor underneath you,

you are kind of coming in
for a controlled landing

and will have to pick
somewhere in Elmville to land.

- Fabian, do you have a place
that you were hoping to live?

- What?
- A place

you're hoping to live?

- Well, I mean, we've got some time.

We're doing all right.

- We're coasting, baby!

[players laugh]

- We can't put it back in the hole.

- We can't put it back-
- Should do it

near the Strongtower Luxury Apartments

so we can be neighbors.

- Oh!

- Oh.
- Oh, what about the-

- Head there!

- No!

Too many fast food
restaurants around there!

- We're in it!

- It's awesome! You can walk
to whatever kinda fast food

restaurant you want!
- Just go to the gym!

- Oh, what about the old Abernant mansion

that's knocked down?

- Oh!
- Oh,

I guess we could put it- how-

- It's gonna be like
whatever is in front of us.

- Yeah.
[players laugh]

- Five, four-

- Target it to the gym!
- Three!

- Right at the gym!
- Two.

- Target to the gym!
- One!

- Gorgug, where we going?

- We're going towards the gym.

- Okay, you're going to
crash into the gymnasium.

- Yeah.
- What?

He said near the gym! He
didn't say crash into the gym!

- All right, near the gym,

near the gym.
- We all brace.

We all brace.
- We all brace.

- Onto to the Bloodrush field.

- Wow, you're gonna have such
a short commute to school.

It's gonna be awesome, guys.

- We move slowly but surely
towards the Aguefort gymnasium.

Kristen, feeling the sudden absence of K2-

I will also say I read
the rules for simulacra

and K2, it's very clear

that everything about what
happened was totally above board.

So I will ask you here for this.

With K2 having been
[imitates sizzling] vaporized

by the deity,

do you think, in this moment,

communicating with your
simulacrum as it vanishes,

do you think you would've asked

for time, allies, equipment,

or do you think you would wish

that K2 would not vanish from this realm?

[players laugh]

- I can't believe you put
that back on the table.

- I know which one I want!

[players laugh]

- Truly, I went home in a fugue state

feeling as though I was blackout
drunk after that episode.

- For sure.

- And I was sitting with it,

and narratively, I
actually think that Kristen

was really loving feeling
like she had a sister.

- [Brennan] Yeah.

- And was honestly probably really sad

to see K2,

who didn't know what she was doing,

commune with a god that was
not hers and get vaporized.

- Yes.

- Equipment.

[players laugh]

- So I think that she
would want equipment.

[players laugh]

- I'm kidding. I'm just joking.

- I think she would want K2 or allies.

- I understand.

So the Divine Intervention
allows you to reenter Elmville.

I think, in this moment,

it is basically a decision

between whether you retain that simulacrum

so that it is not destroyed upon reentry

or whether you want, effectively,
that scattered energy

to teleport some people
here, like to your aid.

However, I will say
that this is just about

this magical divine intervention.

So it's not beyond your ability

to use this time carefully
as you sail back to the gym.

So there's one or the
other of these things

that you want to do the old-fashioned way.

You also have that ability now.

I will let you marinate on that choice

as the ship begins to come back in.

You're landing over the school grounds

and I think Seacaster Manor.

Fabian, I think your house is just in the,

like, just sort of destroys

a massive field out by
the Bloodrush Stadium,

and now you live at school.

- Yeah!

Okay.

- Congrats, man.

[players laugh]

- I actually was kinda
hoping I could move in

once Gilear gets back.

- Yeah, that would be-

- Is now the time to talk about that?

- I mean, yeah.

I mean, there's plenty of rooms.

You could come live-

- Sometimes I don't like hitting my head

on the doorframe of my parents' house.

- You wanna come live at Seacaster Manor

now that it's at school?
- Is that okay?

- Gilear is an amazing paternal figure,

and I really miss him.

- Wow!

- I'll take another dad.

[players laugh]

- Like, this is okay.

This is okay!

[players laugh]
This is okay.

- How's the pullout couch situation?

I don't wanna move in,

I just wanna be able to have the option.

- It's incredible.

I mean, we have a couch
that turns into a bed.

- Probably just pop by during lunch

now that we're so close to school.

[players laugh]

- Yeah, can we eat lunch in your house?

- Yeah, I guess we can
do an off-campus lunch

at my house now.

[players laugh]
- Hell yeah!

- As Seacaster Manor
lands, [imitates impact]

it is impossible not to notice.

And as you land sort of
within sight of the gymnasium,

Jawbone, Ragh, Mazey are all
here gathered around as well.

If there are enemy forces
here at the school,

you have almost definitively been spotted

as students begin to pour out of the ship.

- Oh, as the students run out,

can I look for the artificer students?

- Yes.

You see Unit goes [babbles]

- Unit.

You okay?

[Brennan babbles]

[tense music]

Hey.

I've really enjoyed being in school

with you this year and...

Oh.

Are you?
[players laugh]

[lips smack]
Oh!

[players laugh]

- Whoa!

- Thank you.

[Brennan babbles]

Yeah.

Well, even cowgirls get the blues.

[music stops abruptly]
[players laugh]

[Murph screams]

[players laugh]

[Murph screams/wheezes]

[players laugh]

[Murph screams]

- We have started here?

[players laugh]

- [Brennan] Are we gonna be able-

- This is your fault!

- Are we-
- You can't do this!

- Are we gonna be able
to finish the season?

- That was an off-camera bit

where Beardsley said, "If I roll a nat 20

Zac has to say, "Even
cowgirls get the blues.'"

- Immediate nat 20,
first roll I made today.

[Murph wails]

- Sorry. Sorry.

- [Brennan] You see...

- That wasn't the weirdest
thing that happened.

- But in character.

- In character.
- In character.

In character, Unit goes [babbles]

and puts on a big old
Stetson and walks off.

[players laugh]

- All right, Gorgug!

- Gorgugs!

Back on the market, baby!

- I'm just sayin'

I don't know!

- How long?

- Just the whole year.

- What?
- Wow!

- What?
- That's crazy!

- What?
- Yeah.

- [Ally] Hey.

- It was one-sided.

- You might wanna stop Unit

'cause everyone going towards the gym

is probably about to get slaughtered.

- Oh, also, we need to get the votes.

'cause we need to secure-

- Mazey.

- Mazey, yeah.
- Yeah.

Are you all right?

- [Brennan] Yeah. I'm okay.

That was incredible! How
are you? Are you okay?

- Yeah, I'm hanging in there.

[players laugh] I mean,
I've been through a lot,

but I'm glad you're here with me.

- Yeah, me too.

You see Jawbone says,
"Okay, we got all the vote.

I got all the votes that the kids left,"

and basically packs up a duffle bag.

Mazey goes, "So the
polls close at midnight

but this is already so
bad, whatever's happening."

- Yeah.
- And you guys see,

you hear screams,

it sounds like the sounds of screams,

fire, sirens off in the town.

You hear g*nshots just randomly
from other neighborhoods.

You can feel your blood
heating up in your body.

- Okay. So there are
little rituals happening.

- Yeah.
- It's rage-fest

- The temperature right now in Elmville

is about like 107 degrees Fahrenheit.

Muggy and humid and f*cking nasty here.

The sky, slow moving lightning [slurps]

crawls over the sky around you

as everything is cast in this
dull, red, ember-like light.

Mazey says, "I'm only allowed

to count the votes at midnight.

So it's like 10:30 right now.

But also, I don't know
if we're safe right here

in front of the gym or not,

but polls don't close until midnight.

I don't know what they need."

- Where do you need to
be to count the votes?

Can you do it anywhere?

- All the votes are
delivered to the gymnasium.

- Okay. Gotta be in the gym.

- Okay.
- Great.

- But it has to be at midnight.

So for now-
- What's a short rest?

Do we have enough time to
go into Leo's Tiny Hut?

- You do! An hour is a short rest.

- Would we get some spell
slots back a little bit?

- You could heal.
- You got 16, right?

- I look like I'd had
two hands in toasters.

[players laugh]
- Yeah.

- I wouldn't hate a short rest.

- Yeah.
- Cool.

- Can we go out to my HQ

that I have in the
forest behind the school?

I can cast it again, but-

- Hell yeah! You guys see-
- If that's the case,

I'm gonna do a Channel Divinity

to get a 3rd level spell back.

- Hell yeah.
- Yeah, do it.

- And then, my Channel Divinity will

come back on a short rest.

- Everyone go ahead and
start taking your short rest.

So start mechanically doing that.

You run out.

Kristen, as you vanish into it,

you can see the stormy haze of your magic,

twilight shards, all that stuff

begins to move around and
create the tiny hut around you,

and just in the nick of time

you see that the gym
crackles with red light

and hundreds of shatter-stars

begin to move out of the
gym, out into the town.

- Can we have taken some
of our allies with us

from the boat?

- Yes.

I mean, so of the allies,

Mazey, Jawbone and Ragh were
all right there with you.

You see Ragh looks out
as you're going in there

and Ragh is uninjured and says,

"I'm just worried about
everyone at Mordred.

Should I try to go for my mom
or anything else like that?"

- Yeah.

We don't want anything bad
to happen to them. - Jawbone,

you should go as well.

- He says, "Okay."

He gives you the duffle bag of votes,

and Mazey is holding
onto it as well. And then

you see that Jawbone and
Ragh says, "All right,

my car's parked in the
teacher parking lot.

Let's go.

Oh sh*t! No, I drove to Seacaster!

Okay, we'll get the bus!"

And you see-

- What?

- We'll get on the bus.

- Do you wanna take the Hangman?

- The Hangman says, "Sire,
I do not wish to transport

Jawbone and Ragh.

I wish to stay by your side!"

- I'm worried about Ragh's mom!

- So am I, but they're really fast!

- But we're gonna make them take the bus?

- A werewolf and a barbarian?

They're fast as hell!

- They said they're gonna take the bus,

They're not gonna run!
[Murph sighs]

Could you guys run?

- You see Jawbone looks over and says,

"Ragh, we gotta do it."

And you see Jawbone
assumes his full wolf form.

- Can I cast Fly on them?

- Yes, you can!

- Great. I'll cast Fly on them,



- Jawbone says, "Gotta run!

Wee!

Thanks, kiddo!"

- You're welcome!

- Jawbone does a fun Superman pose.

Ragh is a little bit
afraid of this kinda magic

and covers the bottom of his face

so he can't see the ground

and just stays standing

and just Magneto zooms off into the sky.

Mazey stays with you in the hut.

You guys are all taking your short rest.

- I do a little dance if
anyone needs an extra d6

from a Song of Rest.

- I need-
- Do you know

if Summons take short rests?

Does Gerard Neigh get-

- You can roll your-

- Gerard Neigh can use
hit dice in a short rest.

Absolutely.

- If anyone has any extra healing,

I rolled all my hit dice
and only got up to 60.

Did you add a extra d6?

- I just added it.

- Oh, only up to 60?

- Yeah, I rolled really bad.

- Do bards get spells
back on a short rest?

- [Emily] No.
- No. Long rests.

- Okay.

Do I get Bardics back on a short rest?

- Yeah.

- Yes!
- Okay.

- Okay now.
- Okay, that is big.

- Oh, I forgot to add my Con!

- [Emily] Oh, I get a Pact spell back too!

- Okay, that's-
- And you add your Con

every time with the dice.
- Oh!

Then I'm back up to full!

- Okay, so that's-
- Hell yeah!

- Just quietly in this tiny hut

while just screams and g*nshots,

we're out here, just trying to gas up.

- [Brennan] And be like, "Okay,

okay, okay.
- All right.

Let me do a little dance
for everybody while we-

- Oh, I can also do Song
of Rest, if that helps.

- Sick!

Are you good on health, Gorgug?

- I still need like 27.
- Okay.

- Let me see.
- Yeah.

- Any other spells people wanna cast

as part of this short rest?

- You know what?
- 17.

- Just to maybe make sure that

we didn't get f*cked over or something,

I'm gonna cast Detect Magic on the bag

and make sure that
there was nothing weird.

- [Zac] In the bag?

- The bag with all the votes.
- What bag?

- Oh!

- The only thing that's
come in here with us.

- Clever!

- Yeah, I'll ritual cast Detect Magic.

- That's almost such a good idea.

- If Adaine wants to do that,
I won't blow this spell slot.

- If we could Message or keep
a line open with Jawbone,

that'd be great too,

just 'cause he entered back out

into the world of shatter-stars.

- I'm sorry, what were the spells

you were considering casting?

- Ritual Detect Magic on the bag of votes.

- You can regain one d8 extra.

- Okay. Detect...

There is no magic on the bag of votes.

- Great.
- Cool.

- Oh, maybe we should Ice Feast.

- Oh, we should Ice Feast.
- Oh, if we had K2,

they could take the punishments from it.

- No, we all take the punishments from it.

- Okay.

- Punishments aren't
that bad, if I recall.

- Are we gonna lose any of this stuff,

like True Sight or True
Seeing and See Invisibility?

- Oh yeah.
- Is that stuff gonna go away?

- If it is, I have a couple of
things that last for an hour,

so I wanna wait until it turns 11.

- Okay.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Makes sense.

- I actually do have See Invisibility.

I swapped out Silvery
Barbs for it a while ago,

but do you think it's
worth the 2nd level spell?

- I think, if enough of us have it-

- Well, I have Faerie Fire,

so if I have See Invisibility
then I can cast Faerie Fire

and then nobody else needs it.

- I have Sickening Radiance,

which is kinda the same thing.

- Okay, so I think I'm gonna
save the 2nd level spell.

- [Siobhan] Great.

- I think I'll probably
do See Invisibility.

I have an ability that lets me see

within 5 or 10 feet of me, but like

- Cool.
- So I'll do See Invisibility.

- Yeah, maybe I will do See Invisibility,

but right at the last second.

- Depends on what your
spell economy's like

'cause I don't know that
you necessarily need it.

Not everyone needs to be
firing on Kipperlilly.

- That's true.

I actually think, if
we wanna talk strategy,

I think we should go after Oisin first.

- Oh, definitely!
- Because wizards

are the best class.

- Oisin, yeah.

- Oh, Oisin.
- Yeah, let's blast that dude.

- All right!

We k*lled his grandmother.

- We k*lled his grandma,
now let's k*ll him.

- Now we f*cking k*ll him!

- And he's gonna have
resistance to lightning, I bet.

- Yeah.

- Hell yeah.
- Oh yeah, 'cause he's a blue dragon.

- Let's go around and say
our new hit point totals.

- Full.
- Full?

- For me and Gerard Neigh.
- 126.

- 126 for Gorgug?

You're only three away from full!

Damn!
- Full.

- Full?
- Full.

- Full.
- Full.

- Cool!

And spells we are casting
at the end of the short rest

when it's about 11:30.
- Yeah.

- Great.

So See Invisibility and another ritual

Rary's Telepathic Bond.

- See Invisibility on myself as well.

- I'm gonna drink my potion.

- Ooh!
- Nice!

- [Emily] Woo!

- Baby, baby!

[Zac groans]

- Are the vultures still around?

- Yes, two vultures are with you.

- Wow!
- Do they still

have GoPros on?

- Yes.
- I wear them like epaulets.

- You see that one of
them is helping the other

change out the SD card in the GoPro.

- Oh, you got to. Yeah.
- I inform them

that the music video is not finished yet.

[Brennan squawks]

- I give Fig the Skull of the Vulture King

so she has-

- I wear that-
- Advantage on Deception

Persuasion, and Intimidation.
- And the orangutan mask.

[players laugh]

- But then it's a
disadvantage against everyone.

- On everybody else, yes.

Yeah, this is just for the vultures.

Don't wear it against anybody else.

- With one of those old
school snow cone machines

where you have to like freeze the discs

and then you're grinding it.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah!
- And she's gonna go around

and give everybody a
dish of unseasoned ice.

- Great.

So Kristen is gonna, for the first time,

cast Ice Feast.

- This is a homebrewed spell
from Brennan with love.

Are you guys ready for what we get?

- Yes.
- Ready.

- Mm-hmm.

- We each take one level of Exhaustion.

- Great,

[Lou scoffs]
- Interesting.

- And we take 1d12 cold damage.

- Okay.
- This is a gift with love?

- Yeah, am I allowed to-
- Say the good stuff before-

- Yeah, I'm currently-
- Yeah.

- ...eyeing my snow cone-
- Sell me on that.

- ...and being like, I don't know.
- [Brennan] Great.

- Do you guys have a 12?

- I think I can't eat this.

I can't not Stealth.

- Nah, here you go, guys.

Here you go.

All right, we all take
seven points of damage.

- Okay. I might not eat it.

- Yeah, I'm still not-
- Sell me on it.

- You guys are cured of
all diseases and poison,

become immune to fire
damage and being Stunned.

You make all Con saves with advantage

and your hit point
maximum increases by 2d10-

- Give me the ice.

- And gain that same number of hit points.

It lasts for 24 hours.

- Okay, I think a couple of us-

- How have we not been eating
this every f*cking day?

- Yeah, what the hell?

[players laugh]

- Yeah, I dunno how many times I said

you gotta read Ice Feast.

- I said it sounds great.

- Yeah, you only read
the first few lines of it

and we were like, "Oh, that's bad.

Why would we-
- We all were

on the same page of being like-

- How can we cure Exhaustion,

or level of Exhaustion?

- Greater Restoration can cure Exhaustion.

- Which I also have in my staff.

- Oh, and do we-

- Oh! Can we-
- What about,

are you bringing back K2?

Have you just decided?
- K2 could

also Greater Restoration.

- I, and not even as a joke,
I do think narratively,

Kristen would do anything to get her back.

- I think in this moment-

[players laugh]

- "Not even as a joke,"

and then a sh*t-eating
grin erupts on your face.

- And then a grin that
won't- like a bad flare up.

[players laugh]

- So I think that, at this point,

K2 appears in spectral form

and can cast Greater Restoration.

How many 5th and 6th level
spell slots do you have?

- Well, she was doing a
lot of spellcasting too,

so I had it split up.

So Kristen, I'm missing
a couple spells still,

but 6th level is done.

- Okay.
- Now with Ice Feast,



- Okay.

- I have one 5th level,

I think two 4ths

two 3rds.
- Okay.

- Two 2nds.

- K2 has her own.

- Okay.

So True Seeing, what level is True Seeing?

- She has 5th.

- 5th.

Or 6th, sorry.

- She has 6th.

So she would have only spent
one 6th level spell slot,

so she could cast Greater Restoration

a quite large number of times.

And then, she could also upcast

with a 7th or a 6th.

- I could use it 'cause I can
hide at the end of a round.

- I think Adaine and I could use it

if we need to roll for Counterspell.

- Ah!
- Oh yeah.

- Or if anyone needs to
roll for disadvantage.

- I also have charges in my staff

and Greater Restoration
is half of my charges.

So I can use that

and get someone.
- [Brennan] Twice.

- And use that twice.

- K2 can use it twice.
- So just one person

needs to be exhausted.

- So what does one level
of Exhaustion do again?

It's just disadvantage on-

- Disadvantage on ability checks.

- Disadvantage on checks.

- Not saving throws, not attacks.

- For you, that'd be Athletics
checks, grappling checks.

- I feel like I might be doing those.

- Yeah.
- I think maybe-

- I think I'll be okay
without them because I-

- Oh, 'cause you have higher level spells.

- I have higher level spells.

It would just be Counterspell, I think,

that would be a problem
because I have w*r Caster,

and we get advantage anyway from-

- Yeah.
- For Constitution.

- Okay.
- So yeah.

- Are you looking to be The Ball?

- 'Cause why do you need to do,

do you need to do checks?

- Oh my god!

- I'm just asking! I'm asking!
- Dance is my whole thing!

- Athletics! Athletics!

Performance!
- No! Fine, fine!

No, Counterspell is important.

I'll be exhausted.

It's fine.
- No, I think you need it.

- No, I'll catch the ghost.

Everything will be all right.

[players laugh]
I'll be tired.

It's fine.

It's fine!

I'm maximum legend, baby!

[players laugh] I've been
tired all f*cking year.

- Oh, I think it's behind your ear.

- Oh, is that it?

- Yeah. Oh no, sorry.

- It went up your hand.

- God dammit!

[players laugh]
- [Emily] Do you like it?

- So yeah, K2 can cast it three times.

- [Lou] Oh, thank you!

- Did you see I wrote-

- And then the staff can cast it twice.

- Yeah, I saw that.
- I'm gonna split

each of these and K2
will be the second half.

- Cool.
- Get rid of that.

- No, no, no. That's part of the design.

- Oh, okay.

Okay.
- Cool.

[players laugh]

- K2 upcasts it one, two,
getting three people.

My staff, if I use all the charges-

- Gets two people.
- Gets two more people.

- You could cast it once if you have...

I don't know if you want to,

but you could cast it once yourself

'cause you do have-
- The upcast-

- ...so you could get more people?
- So you would get everyone.

- When you upcast it, does
it do more people or no?

- No, it does not do more
people when you upcast it.

- Oh, keep casting it.

- Okay.
- Oh, okay.

- I think keep the spells.

I'm good to be a little tired.

- You're good?
- I'm good.

I would say that maybe I'd
like to not be exhausted

just because of-

- Yeah, there's-
- Because of Deception

on Ruben.
- Totally.

- [Ally] Is your speed changed?

- No, no, no. That's for a
later level of Exhaustion.

- It's all just checks.

So you might have to do Religion checks

or something with Cassandra.

We don't want you exhausted.

I think Mary Ann's probably
gonna try to k*ll Gorgug.

There's a high chance of wrestling.

- I think you got it.

It's three of those higher
level spells from K2,

two from your staff, maybe
one from you personally.

- Yeah, that would get everyone.

It just depends on if you want...

- To lose one of those
higher level spell slots.

- But I think you can.

- Great.
- I think

when we're really getting close to it-

- Mm-hmm?

- ...would like to cast a 5th level Fly.

- [Brennan] Okay.

[papers rustle]

- So Kristen can already fly.

Fig can already fly.

- A short rest.

- Riz wants to hide.

- Yeah.
- Cool.

- So I'll do Fabian, Gorgug, and me.

- Cool, cool.
- Fly?

- Fly.

- I'm gonna have K2 have casted Ice Feast,

if that's okay with you.

- [Siobhan] So it's a 60 foot fly speed.

- Okay.

- So coming in from the sky,

wrapped in the Union Jack.

[players laugh]

- Holy sh*t!

- Just holding pounds
and pounds and pounds

of unseasoned ice.

Behold the Ice Feast, governor!

And then-

- She got more British in death.

[players laugh]
- Holy sh*t!

- You all-
- Wait.

You mean she achieved her
true potential in death?

- [Siobhan] That's beautiful.
That's really beautiful.

- So for all of you,

immunity to fire, immunity
to the Stunned condition,

you all take 1d12 Cold damage,

but then your HP maximum

and current HP go up by 2d10.

So you're a little bit
under a larger maximum.

- Is it- Same?

So everyone gets the same from-

- Everyone gets the same.

So you go ahead and
roll 2d10 for everybody.

- That's five.
- [Emily] Oh, whoops.

- That's a 10, baby!

- [Brennan] All right.

- 15.
- 15 HP max.

And current goes up by 15 for everybody.

But you did take that seven Cold damage

from eating so much ice.

- Is that temp HP or-

- No, it's your temporary maximum.

- Ooh!
- So it's not temp HP.

Healing spells can bring you back

for the next 24 hours-
- Such a good spell.

- Gotcha.
- Such a good spell.

- Ice Feast, baby.

Here we go.

- Gerard Neigh is going
to have eaten it too.

- [Ally] Yes!

- Can it hit everyone?

Is there a limit to how many people?

- 12.

- Oh!
- That's why I'm like,

"Oh, we should have kept Jawbone."

- Mazey asked if she should eat this.

- Oh, yes. Mazey should absolutely eat it.

Mazey, you're in

on this fight, right?
- It'll make you exhausted.

- Okay.
- But also

I mean, if you wanna fight with us,

we would be proud to have you by our side.

- Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. I'll do it. But
I'll just be a little tired.

It's okay.

- You don't have to eat
it if you don't want to,

but it is pretty-

it honestly tastes okay.

- Really?
- It's unseasoned.

- What's seasoned ice?

- You know, a Digene.

[players laugh]

- Digene?

- Oh yeah, yeah. That makes sense.

- [Lou] A little Digene. Yeah.

- Oh yeah. It's like a snow
cone or something like that.

- Yeah, exactly!
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Like a blueberry syrup.

- [Brennan] Mm-hmm.

- That sounds great.
- Amazing!

So you guys have those benefits.

- I'm huge now!
- You guys know

what your new HP maximums are
and the damage you've taken.

It is 11:30 at night.

- Hmm.

- All right.

- Should we sneak by and see
what they're doing in the gym?

- I have a feeling
they're gonna just like-

- But it's just like a trap.

- Yeah, I hate to be a d*ck-
- I think we should go in hot.

- ...but I kind wanna roll up
and kick their f*cking asses!

- Should we just go in hot?

- Yeah, I'm done with sneaking.
- I'm ready to go.

- [Lou] Yeah, exactly.
- I'm ready to go.

- I'm doing pushups in the air.

- Yeah.
- I know.

I can See Invisible. I
don't think I need to be-

- Oh wow! I'm so strong.

- [Murph] ...invisible.
- Yeah.

- So easy 'cause I'm so strong

or 'cause we're flying?
- So easy.

So easy 'cause I'm so strong.
- I kinda wanna be invisible

and cast Faerie Fire.

- Oh, that's not...

Well, you'll have to do
Greater Invisibility,

otherwise it breaks.

- Yeah, I say we just rock up.

- Can't wait.
- Yeah.

- Do we wanna make sure there's no traps?

- Yeah-
- But other than that.

So maybe we'll do...

I'll go just 20 feet ahead.
- Give me an Investigation.

Yeah.

[die rolling]

- Reliable Talent is



- 23.

You are searching ahead of the group.

All right, this is you guys rocking up.

So this is all of those spells
that are one minute duration.

Gimme what you're casting.

- See Invisibility, Mage Hand.

- This for one minute?
- Haste.

- But yeah, I mean, this is like,

as you are approaching the doors,

this is like you are kicking off.

- Sacred Weapon.

- Sacred Weapon from Fig

- Mirror Image.

- Mirror Image from Adaine.

- Nothing over here. Just
on the back of the Hangman.

- Okay.
- And you know what?

We're gonna do a Spirit Guardian.

- Spirit Guardians from Fig.

Hell yes!

It is easy for you to summon
this rage energy around here.

[Brennan imitates energy crackling]

Kicks up around you.

- I promise she's good.

- As we're going in,
I will go into a rage.

- Okay.
- [Lou] What'd the potion do?

- Makes my Strength 25.

- Hoy!

- [Siobhan] Nice!

- Oh my god.

- How's Gorgug looking right now,

raging and with this f*cking potion?

- His neck has just gotten bigger.

- Yeah.
- Ooh!

- He looks so hyped.
- Pretty vascular, dude!

- Dude!

- I've never felt weirder.

- You just do the thing
where you put pre-workout

straight into your mouth, dry.

- You look like you have an
absolutely bizarre podcast.

[players laugh]

- It's about waking up at 3:30 AM.

- I can't help [indistinct]

- Your crystal goes, "Ba-bing!"

and it's a producer from
Dry Guys reaching out.

[players laugh]

- You got Gorgug.

[players laugh]

- See Invisibility and Mage Hand.

Anything from Kristen?
- Yes.

Twilight Sanctuary.

Activate a 30 foot radius
of dim light is around me.

- Cool.
- And I am bonus actioning

Steps of Night.

- Nice!
- Cool.

- I'm flying above the ground

and I'm just using my walking speed.

- [Brennan] Cool.

- And K2 is going to cast
Greater Invisibility on herself.

- Cool.
- With the hopes of casting...

Okay, she's gonna have
Greater Invisibility

and See Invisibility on herself.

- Are those both Concentrate?

- No, See Invisibility is not.

- [Brennan] Cool.

And See Invisibility.
- Do you know if

Branding Smite is Concentration?

- It is, yeah.

So K2's got Greater Invisibility
and See Invisibility.

You've got Twilight
Sanctuary, Steps of Night.

Fabian, what do you got going on?

- I think I've just caught
the little Ghost Step thing

and I've thrown him in the clock.

- Cool.
- So I'm now attuned

to my Ghost Step Tattoo.

- Hell yes, great.

Amazing.

Adaine, you've got See Invisibility,

Rary's Telepathic Bond,

you're holding Fly on you
and two other companions,

and you've got Mirror Image up.

- Yes.
- f*ck it!

I'm playing the pipes.

- [Brennan] Okay, some rats show up.

- Oh, I have two vultures!

- You're Stealthing! You're Stealthing!

- You see all along the paneling

at the base of the
school portcullises open

and all of the rats of Rat
World come flooding out.

- For Lucy!

- Do you use rat money?
- [Brennan] For Lucy!

Yeah!

[players laugh]

It's rat dollars.

[players laugh]

- Gorgug, you got the
potion, you're raging.

- Can you guys do a Saturday?

[players laugh]

- Concentration on Branding Smite, or no?

- No, 'cause I'm Hasting.

I'm Hasting.

- Oh, you're going to do Haste?

- Yeah.
- f*ck!

Okay, cool.

- Gorgug, where'd you get
those tiny sunglasses?

- I'm on the phone

[players laugh]

- And Fig's got Sacred Weapon
and Spirit Guardians going.

Anything else?

- That's all!

- All right.
[players laugh]

All of you run up from
Applebees headquarters

with a duffle bag full of votes.

Is Fabian carrying the
duffle bag full of votes

or is Mazey carrying it?
- I think Mazey and I

are riding on the Hangman together

and I think it's pressed in between us.

- I think I put-
- Woo!

- Beautiful!

[players laugh]

- [laughing] Pressed between.

- I think I-

- Pressed like-
- ...handcuffed

the duffel bag-
- Yeah.

- ...to Mazey's wrist.

- What'd you say?

- Do you have handcuffs?

- Officer Kristen. 100%.
- Yes, of course.

- Unfortunately, Officer Kristen is canon.

- Is that a thing?

[players laugh]

- I love the police!

- What?

[players laugh]
- No, no, no.

Officer Kristen was a Tracker sex thing.

- Yeah, yeah.
- Officer Kristen

was not a cop thing.
- Yeah.

- I am going in as Wanda Childa
and Gerard Neigh. - Okay.

- And then, Squeem has my phone.

- Yeah.
- So I think

that we should FaceTime Squeem

as we go into battle.

- If only for a motivational speech.

- Do you wanna FaceTime
Squeem as you go into battle?

- Yes.
- Yeah.

- You see Squeem

covered in dust and cracks.

[dramatic music]

He's got stickers on him
and different postcards

from all the places he's been.

He's just been walking
since the season started.

So he is been walking for 10 months

and you see he is at the intersection

of Maple and Ash Grove.

- [Ally] Wait, is the
sky behind him is this?

- [Brennan] Is red. Yeah.
This guy behind him is red.

- Squeem, get here now!

- Squeem? Squeem!

- Get here yesterday.

Get here two hours ago!
- You're so close!

- You're close!

- Squeem!
- Squeem, a left,

a right, your first
right, and one more left.

- Squeem!
- And one coffee order

on your way here.

- Yeah.
- Cortados all around.

- Yeah.

- You see that he walks-
- A hot chocolate

with a shot of, yeah.

- Lemonade cortado.

- He opens a door, you hear a little,

"Bling-a-ling-a-ling-a-ling!"

And he's shot a couple times

by people freaking out at the coffee shop.

And he goes, "Squeem."

[players laugh]

- Beautiful!

- Holy sh*t!

We're gonna have Squeem?

We cannot fail!

[players laugh]

- Unbelievable.

Squeem is on his way,

- Babe, you're gonna love Squeem.

I'm sorry I called you babe.

- Who's Squeem?

No, I liked it.

Okay.
- I liked it.

- I'm so sorry. Click

- Yeah.
[players laugh]

- Y'all keep doing y'all's thing.
- What the f*ck?

Unbelievable.

[players laugh]

- Get out of there!
- Kristen goes where

the handcuffs are, I'm sorry!

These need to be held by you.
- I understand but they-

- They can't be taken from you.

- Okay.

- Unless you die.
- Yeah.

So Squeem's been walking
for 10 months straight.

You handcuff the votes to Mazey's wrist.

You burst through the
doors of the gymnasium.

As you do so,

you see, gathered here,

all of the Rat Grinders.

Ruben looks up and goes,

"Wanda!

[dramatic music]

You're alive!"

- There's a way out of this.

Gorgug, the greatest wizard
in the world showed me.

- What? Why are you so yoked?

[players laugh]

- I'm a wizard.

[players laugh]

- He wakes up at 4:30 every morning!

- Five days and every hour.

- He gave me the choice and I said, "Yes."

And then, Gorgug cured me.

- Rise and grind.
- You see

Jace and Porter are also here.

Porter turns around to you.

He, right now, is normal-sized.

Turns around and says,

"Well, well, well.

Mr. Thistlespring and...

Is Fig-"

- Fig died.

- Oh?
- Yeah.

- Died in the crash.

- Yeah.

You f*cking k*lled her, you b*tch!

- She died k*lling a dragon.

I think your grandma.

- Yeah.
- Oisin goes, "What?"

- Your grandmother's dead!

[players laugh]

- Fig k*lled her.

- You see-
- And then,

she did the shocker as she died

- We have video proof of it.

- [Ally] Yeah.

Porter looks up-

- We do have videos.

- Buddy looks out from here and goes,

"Everyone, I want y'all to know,

bottom of my heart,

we're gonna slaughter all of you

and deliver you up unto our
lord and savior Bacharath."

And you see-

[players laugh]

- Buddy!
- You see Porter goes,

"That's not the f*cking name!"

- And he says, "I know in my heart,

Bacharath is the right name

and we just don't believe hard enough."

And you see Porter turns and says,

"Funny little trick, eh?

This next part's not gonna be a trick.

[eerie music]

I feel glad in my heart

that after years of f*cking bullshit

I get to show you what I really think

about the power of Rage."

[growls]

He glows with red light
pouring out of his mouth.

He grows to about 15 feet in height.

He smashes the floor

with one of his feet.

A wave of Stun Energy radiates across

and all of you are immune
to the stunning energy.

- Sorry, what did you just do?

- Loser says, "What?"

- What?
- Oh, was that

supposed to be impressive?

- Oh!

[players laugh]

[Brennan roars]

- He is so humiliated.

He gets even angrier,

and [screams] cracks appear in the wall.

I need everybody here to roll Initiative.

- K2 comes out of Invisibility

and casts Faerie Fire in a 20 foot cube

on however many Rat Grinders,

hoping to get Kipperlilly for sure.

- Awesome!

Go ahead and roll Initiative.

- Nat 20!

- Woo!

Dirty 20!

- [Lou] Mm.
- 28.

- Hold on, let me go through here.

So we got a nat 20 from Kristen.

- Yeah, it goes down to a 17 though.

- On a nat 20 from Kris...

Okay, goes down to a 17.

I'm gonna say...

Okay, 17 for Kristen.

K2's acting on your turn.

- Do we have Bless or the power thing?

I forget. Okay.

- But you could have casted it again.

Is Kristen concentrating
on a spell right now?

- That's a great point.

Let's do it.

Everyone's Blessed.

- Great!
- Appreciate you.

- [Brennan] Okay.

- Do those go to initiative or for-

- No.
- I will have

made K2 invisible.

- So K2's got Greater
Invisibility on herself, right?

That's what you said before.

- Oh 'cause you can only
cast it on yourself.

Never mind.
- Yeah. All right.

And then, Bless.

Is there another one for the teddy bear

that is going from Kristen
right now, Concentration-wise?

- No.
- Okay.

- And Greater Invisibility, you
don't have to come out of it

to cast a spell?
- Great.

- So she can keep Greater Invisibility.

- Yeah.
- She was dropping it

because Faerie Fire is also Concentration.

- Got it.
- Gotcha.

Before K2 pops off that Faerie Fire,

we're gonna just put
everything into initiative.

So it's a 17 for Kristen.

Adaine, what did you get?

- 10.

- [Brennan] Gorgug, what did you get?

- I got a seven.

- Seven.

Fabian, what did you get?
- 19.

- [Brennan] 19.

Fig, what did you get?

- Dirty 20.

- Dirty 20.

Riz, what'd you get?
- 28.

- Jesus!

Way to go, Mr. Gukgak

Okay, all of you behold a b*ttlefield.

The divine realm of the goddess

that, to your enemies, remains unnamed,

though Buddy Dawn insists
that it is called Bacharath,

is coming apart.

What you can see is an
incredibly dangerous ritual

that threatens to almost jump the tracks.

They have invoked too much energy

without the ability to finish the ritual.

Right?

And all of Elmville is coming apart,

starting with the gymnasium.

This is the locus of the
rage dimension spilling in.

This is the carcass of Ankarna

that is coming through

into the material realm,

protected by the shield
of the Nightmare King

in the storm clouds above.

As you surge forward into the gymnasium-

- Who's flying right now?

- Pegasus.
- You are.

- Is Fabian or the Hangman?

- I think me.

I'm in the saddle for effect.

- Cool.

- Great.

[players laugh]

- You're just floating

slightly above it.
- Are you flying

slightly above a motorcycle?

[players laugh]

- Oh, where's Kipperlilly?

- Invisible.

- Can the people who have
See Invisibility see her?

- You cannot.

- Oh!
- Okay.

So she's not here yet.

- Oh, she might just have
such a good Hide check

that nobody can see her.

- Oh f*ck!

I thought I was gonna cast
a little Faerie Fire on her.

- Charging forward, you see
the Rat Grinders before you.

Everyone has placed themselves
where they wanna be.

Those who are flying are
flying, which is most of you.

In fact, I think only K2 and Riz

are not flying right now,

and the Hangman.

Okay,
- You've got a vulture on.

- I've got two.
- Just blue tack it on.

[Ally laughs]
- Okay.

- Two vultures.

- [Emily] I got two!

- [accented] I got two!

It's good to be back!

- A massive 15 foot
tall Porter Cliffbreaker

is charging across the shattered gym

as the chunks of the
floor begin to float away

from the divine realm
surging through underneath.

Riz Gukgak, you are first to act.

- [Murph] Okay.

Can I...

Do you have a 40 foot cube that I can see?

- Well, here's a 30 foot
cube to get you started.

- [Murph] Okay.

Beep! Okay.
[dramatic music]

That's cool.

Who's back here? Who's that?

- [Brennan] That's Jace.

- [Murph] f*ck that dude!

Okay, I'll go for these four,

Porter, Mary Ann, Ruben, and Buddy.

Okay, actually, first thing's first.

- Mm-hmm.
- [Murph] I'll hide to kick it off.

- [Brennan] Cool.
- C'mon.

[die rolling]

A 28 Stealth check.

And then I'm going to use Magical Ambush.

If you're hidden from a creature

when you cast a spell on it,

the creature has disadvantage
on any saving throw it makes

against the spell this turn.

- Hell yeah!

- So I'll cast the spell
Slow on these four.

- [Brennan] These four here?

Hell yes!

- [Murph] Centering in this area,

so if Kipperlilly

just happens to be
f*cking hiding in there-

- Oh!

- [Murph] She would also get grabbed.

- 40 foot, too.

I think it goes out a little way.

[chill music]

- [Brennan] Hell yeah!

Okay. You cast Slow?
- Mm-hmm.

- Ruben Hopclap right here Counterspells.

- With Magical Ambush am I not-

- Hidden!
- Casting from hide

until after it's settled?
- You're casting [indistinct].

- Can't see him!

- They can't see you.

That is correct.

- Okay, so I believe I come
out after the spell has-

- Resolves. Yes, yes, yes.

That is correct.

That is Magical Ambush.
- Nice!

- Unbelievable!

What is the saving throw for Slow?

- So they're gonna be
doing it with disadvantage

and it is a... buh buh buh.

Each target must succeed
on a Wisdom saving throw.

- Wisdom saving throw.

And they're all rolling with disadvantage.

Your DC is 17.

- 17.

- Wisdom saves across the board.

[dramatic music]

And at the very first
action of the combat,

Porter is gonna use a
Legendary Resistance.

- Okay.
- Yeah!

- [Murph] Okay.

- This guy is burning limited resources

way too early in the f*cking combat.

- Great.
- Riz, that was awesome!

- Unbelievable!
- Beautiful!

- [Brennan] Mary Ann is gonna go next.

[dramatic music continues]

[sighs] 19 and a



- 16 fails.

- 16 fails.
- Yep!

- Mary Ann is Slowed.

Unbelievable!

We're gonna roll for Ruben.

[upbeat music]

Ruben gets a nat one.

- Yeah!
- We're gonna roll for Buddy.

Buddy has a very high Wisdom.

Buddy saves.

- Okay.
- Okay.

But Ruben and Mary Ann, both Slowed.

Go ahead and rattle off
the effects of Slow for me,

if you'd be so kind.
- Okay.

Minus two penalty to AC
and Dex saving throws.

- Okay.

- Can't use reactions.

- [Brennan] Wow! Ruben has Counterspell.

That is huge!

- On its turn,

it can use either an
action or a bonus action.

Not both.

- Okay.

- And regardless of the
creature's abilities

or magic items, it can't
make more than one melee

or ranged attack during its turn.

- Jesus!

- If the creature casts a spell

with a casting time of one action,

roll a d20. On an 11 or higher,

the spell doesn't take effect

until the creature's next turn,

and the creature must use its action-

- Oh my god!

- ...to complete the spell.

If you can't the spell is wasted.

- What super spy tech are we seeing

as you leap out of hiding

and blast all four of these combatants?

- I very nerdily pull
out my Arcadian watch

and goes like, "Set timers to

[intense music]

we're gonna win."

[players laugh]

And I wind my Arcadian watch

and it projects time slowing down

and it shatters and spreads over

these dudes here.
[Brennan sputters]

And since I had to hide
at the top of my turn,

I can't hide now. So I'm
just gonna use my movement

to freaking skedaddle and just hide.

- Okay, just literally get cover
behind the basketball hoop.

You see that Porter
[roars] charges forward.

You see that Ruben goes,
[shouts] "Terrible magic!"

And you see Mary Ann
goes, "My quirky pet,"

and then she pulls a little
thing out and checks on her.

[players laugh]

- Mary Ann, we're gonna
get you on our side.

[Brennan laughs]

Okay?
- Mary Ann,

we're gonna get you out here.

- No lethal blows on Mary Ann!
- I don't think she's good.

[players laugh]

- We're gonna k*ll her!
- Brennan, question.

- Yes.

- K2 was invisible,

came out of invisibility
to cast Faerie Fire.

- Yes.
- Because I thought

we could see Kipperlilly.

So that was-

- You would not, yes.
- Target number one.

- That's okay.

She does not have to use that spell slot.

- Incredible!

So she is still invisible.

I am now the one who
cast Bless on the party,

so I don't have Bless, but she does.

- [Brennan] Hell yes!

I'm gonna give you a little invisibility.

Go ahead and put that on K2.

Great.

[intense music]

Let's see here.

Yeah. That's no sweat.

Okay, this is gonna be Ivy.

- Ivy.

[intense music continues]

- [Brennan] That's a miss

- [Lou] Dreamy.

- [Brennan] That is a hit.

- Silvery Barbs.

- What's the range of Silvery Barbs?

- Never mind.
[music stops abruptly]

[players laugh]

- Cool.

Two hits. Fabian.

- The rats! No!
[intense music resumes]

- Not the rats.

- [Ally] Oh.
[players laugh]

- Are you sure?

- They're protecting their livelihood.

- Don't you understand?

- They have a mall underneath the school!

- I'm gonna need a Dexterity save

and a Constitution save for the Hangman.

- Great.

- As the Hangman takes


- Oh no!

Okay.

They're both for the Hangman?

- Both for the Hangman.

- Hangman Dex save

[die rolling]

is gonna be a



- Saves.

- Hangman Con save

[die rolling]

is gonna be a 16.

- 16. Okay.

Ivy [imitates arrows whooshing]

starts firing arrows at your motorcycle.

On the Constitution save,
she hits the gas tank

and [whooshes] fuel begins to pour out.

The Hangman's speed is halved.

- Oh!

Hangman, are you all right?

- Sire!

[pants] The really hot
mean one from before,

she has injured my fuel tank!

[pants] See?

We should try to be nice to her,

'cause that will make
her less mean, right?

- No, no.
- We should base

our relationship on being so
nice so that she's less mean!

- No [laughs].

- Honestly, her mini's not that hot.

[players laugh]

- She feels that, somehow, in
the fiction of the universe.

- [Siobhan] Yeah.

- Eyeshadow's hard when brushes

are as big as your hand, you know?

[players laugh]

- I also just wanted to be mean.

- [Brennan] I also just wanted to be mean!

- 'Cause she just hurt the Hangman

- Oh!

Wait, I forgot she has one
other ability she's gonna use,

and that still does not
turn that into a hit.

Okay.

Figueroth Faeth, you are up.

- Okay.

I want to fly over here.
[rock music]

- [Brennan] Okay.

- And attack Oisin.

- Hell yes!

Immediately, as soon as you close,

you see Oisin looking up at you

and focusing intently on you

with his eyes through his glasses.

Go ahead and take your action.

- Oh, 'cause he's gonna try

and give me disadvantage or something.

Okay.
- Lame.

- I am going to just try to

Green-Flame Blade him.

[intense rock music]

That is a...

Right now I have plus 17 to hit

because of my Sacred Weapon.

So 17 plus 16.



- 32 will hit.

- Okay.

I'm gonna do a Smite,

just a 4th level.

Okay, let me roll this.

- Just a 4th level.

- Simple 4th level.

- And this is also 2d6.

Oh, and I can actually
get Ivy with the fire!

- Okay.

[virtual dice rolling]
[intense rock music]

- I'm gonna re-roll two ones.

[intense rock music continues]

Okay.




[player sneezes]

- Bless you!
- Hoo!

- And then the vultures have
Pack Tactics to make attacks.

- Okay.
- Can I have them do Grapples?

- Yeah.
- Grapple attacks?

So they have a minus two to Strength,

but they're both gonna
do Grapple attempts-

- On Oisin?
- On Oisin.

- Cool, cool.

First one has to beat a seven.

[dice rolling]

- Yeah, he gets a 16.

- Cool.
- Okay, so first one Grapples.

We wanna drag him out of
line of sight of Adaine.

- Okay. Gotcha.

- Oh, and Ivy takes

[die rolling]

[intense rock music continues]

One. 14 plus 5.

- 19.
- 19 fire damage

from the Green-Flame Blade.

- [whooshes] As the blade moves past her.

So then, we wanna Grapple him

and basically get him out
of line of sight of Adaine

so he can't Counterspell Adaine.

- Gotcha.
- And then,

have him be in my Spirit
Guardians when he starts his turn.

- Copy that.
- He's actually

too far away to Counterspell
me right now, but... - Okay.

- But move him anyway though.
- Not a bad idea though.

- It's not a bad idea.

- Well, he's out of line of sight for-

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Yeah, yeah.
- You can drag him

behind the basketball hoop over here.

- Yeah, that's why I wanted to use that.

- Cool. Great.

And you're following him here.

Hell yeah.
- Or he's Grappled by-

- Oh, and you know what?
- Are the vultures

leaving your side to do this, or no?

- Oh no, we're all-

- You're all staying in a clump.

- So the pegasus hasn't
finished his movement.

- Gotcha.
- He's using

his entire movement.

- [Brennan] Cool, cool, cool. Gotcha.

- So yeah, we're all staying together

like a little family.

- Great.

All staying together like a little family.

Perfect.
- 'Cause I want him

to take the Spirit Guardians.

And then, you know what?

The other vulture is gonna take an attack.

Why not?
[die rolling]

- Cool.

- He rolled really well!

Does an 18 hit?

- [Brennan] 18 hits.

- [Emily] Just another
three piercing damage.

- Okay!

That'll prompt another
Concentration check.

- Ooh!

- What's he Concentrating on?

- The first thing he needs
to do is beat a 21 save.

- Concentration check.

Okay, this-
- He fails.

So he loses Concentration
on whatever he's focused on.

[Emily cackles]

- Great!
- Well, actually,

I'm gonna go ahead and move
the pegasus down further

because you're on top
of him, grappling him.

- Yeah.

But I mean, we're grappling
him in the sky a little bit.

Like, maybe like 10 feet in the sky.

- Gotcha. Cool, cool, cool.

That is Fig's turn and Gerard Neigh.

Fabian Aramais Seacaster, that is you.

- [Lou] Just based on
everything we've heard,

they won't k*ll Mazey, right?

Mazey has to count the votes?

- Mazey has to count the votes.

That is correct.
- Okay.

Mazey, I don't think they can k*ll you.

Are you trying to get up
in the mix or do you wanna-

- Yeah, I'll get up in the mix.

Let's do it. Yeah.
- Get up in the f*cking mix.

- Get in the mix. Yeah, yeah.
- Let's f*cking rock!

- I'll just get in the f*cking mix.

- Okay.

I'm gonna take the Hangman

its movement forward,

which is halved.

So it's normally 50,
so I can go 25 with it.

I'm gonna put the pipe down and pray

the rats will defend their livelihood,

- Which of course they will.

- Which of course they will.
- Precedent.

- [Lou] So 5, 10,



- And it is difficult terrain, by the way.

- [Lou] Okay. Okay. So that's-
- So that would

be a full dash.
- That's a full dash.

So yeah, the Hangman will go
its full to here, I believe.

- [Brennan] Cool.

Copy that.

Great.
- Great.

And then, I'm gonna say,
"That b*tch in the back,

I'm gonna skin her alive!"

[players laugh]

- Sire!

- Straight up! Straight up!

She said she was gonna do it to Mazey,

so I'm gonna f*cking do it to her.

- Yeah!

- And I'm gonna jump off the
Hangman, turn into a ghost.

- Oh!
[players cheer]

- Holy sh*t! Look at that tattoo!

- Unbelievable!
- Just become

a spectral Fabian flying 60 feet.

- Oh!

- Best f*cking birthday gift!

- Rules!

- Damn!
- Can I make a check

to see if I see the ghost tattoo's hole?

[players laugh]

- It's of course showing.

- Oh, sorry, Brennan.

Can I also have,

I forgot to use my bonus action.

- Yeah, yeah, go for it.
- Can I have

Hexblade Cursed Porter?

- [Brennan] Yes, absolutely.

- Thanks!

- Porter is Hexblade Cursed!

Fabian, you leap off here,

and then are you surging towards Ivy?

- Ivy, yeah.
- Cool!

Bam!

You are right next to Ivy.

Go ahead and tell me what you're gonna do.

- I'm gonna attack her.

- Cool!

- First attack is only
gonna be a 15 to hit.

- For Ivy, it does not hit.

- Oh, devastating!

Second attack is gonna be a 24 to hit.

- 24 will hit.

- Okay.

We'll make it a Trip attack.

DC 17, I think.

- Mazey on the Hangman
with the bag of votes.

- Real cool.
- Whoa!

- Yeah, DC is 17 on that.

And then I will also add a Bardic.

- That's a Strength save?

- That's a Strength save.

DC 17 Strength saving throw.

- She fails.

- Okay.

We'll burn a 3rd level
spell slot for Fandrangor.

- Nice!

- And then one more for
a Defensive Flourish.

[die rolling]

- Mm-hmm.
- Hell yes!

My AC's 26.

- Nice!
- Wow!



Okay.
- 26 AC

and then total of 5,









- Woo!

- I mean, and while she's
down, I'll Action Surge.

We'll swing two more times with advantage.

- Yeah!
- Oh my god!

- That's awesome!

[dice rolling]

- f*ck her up!

- 21 to hit?

- 21 hits.

- Great!
[dice rolling]

[intense music]

And a 27 to hit.

So on the first one,

we'll make it a Goading attack

just for shits and gigs.

DC 17 Wisdom savings throw.
- Shits and gigs!

- Okay.

- I'll burn a 2nd level
spell slot with Fandrangor

[dice rolling]

for a total of 9,





- Okay.
- Burn a second spell slot.

- Oh, sorry.

You're doing two more attacks.

- Two more attacks.
- Resolve

the first attack first.

- That was 20-

- Describe for me what
happens as Ivy goes down.

- Woo!
[Siobhan laughs]

Yes!
- Spectral Fabian

comes up, grabs her neck.

You had your chance to live

and now I'm gonna skin you alive.

[players laugh]
- No!

No!
- I'll tell you right now.

I'll tell you right now.

I'm gonna lose my virginity
to that girl over there

[players laugh]

on the rug I make from your skin

with the weaving tools
that I will make time for!

- No!

I was mocking her

because I think she's objectively ugly.

[Brennan gags]
[players laugh]

And you see she [shouts]

- [Emily] You are the
most bland-looking person

I've ever seen.
[players laugh]

- In Fallinel, this is quite fashionable!

I'm dying!

- No it's not!

[players laugh]

- Blam, blam, blam!

You see that she is no more.

- [Siobhan] Hell yeah!

- We're also right here-
- Wait, where's Porter?

- If you wanna attack-
- Yeah, can I take

that second attack I have?

- How much movement did you use?

- I used 60 to get to...

I had-

- Does Fly give you 20 left for 80?

- You get 60 feet of flight movement.

- Okay.

So you've used your movement to get there.

- Great, then-

- If you wanted, you could
take a weapon and f*cking-

- Yeah.
- sh**t.

- Yeah, I'll sh**t-
- Why not?

- I'll sh**t Oisin while he's grappled.

- Yeah!
- Go for it.

- Great.

- Do you have advantage 'cause he's prone?

- I don't think he's prone,
I think he's just grappled.

- Oh, he is just grappled.

- Right.
- His speed is zero.

[dice rolling]

- You're Blessed, remember?

- Oh, I haven't been rolling Bless!

[intense music]

That's gonna be



- 18 to hit Oisin?

You hit him.

- Great!
- Yeah!

[dice rolling]

- That's seven points
of damage as I cackle.

[players laugh]

[unhinged cackling]

- Bam! Gah!

Oisin is already looking bloodied,

having been Smited from atop Gerard Neigh.

And as Fabian takes out
the same hand crossbow

you used to k*ll Johnny
Spells all those years ago.

- Oh!
- Bam! Blah!

- [Lou] How do you think I got my bike?

[players laugh]

- [Brennan] Unbelievable!

Okay.

- That was satisfying because
I've f*cking hated Ivy

ever since she was so mean to Mazey-

- Yes.
- About Twister.

- Yeah.

- Who's twisted now?

[players laugh]

- Porter is going to
use a Legendary Action.

Porter is going to leap
from here to right here

in between Fig and Fabian.

And as he lands,

he's going to adjust this arrangement.

I'll do it in a second.

But basically, lands and creates
even more difficult terrain

in that area.

- Okay.
- Boom!

As he lands in the
middle of Fig and Fabian.

That is going to be
Kristen Applebees' turn.

- K2 is invisible.

She is going to-

- Twerk.

- Look right to camera.

[players laugh]

What is difficult terrain? Half?

- [Siobhan] Half movement.
- Half your movement. Yeah.

- All right.

She's only gonna get right there.

Kristen is floating in the air-

- [Brennan] Mm-hmm.

- Surrounded by twilight.

- Cool.
- I'm gonna look at Buddy.

Can I do an Insight check

to see if there's any of the
old Buddy left in his eyes,

or if he's completely taken over?

It's a nat one.
- Okay.

- k*ll him.

[players laugh]

- Yeah, he switched to
Bacharath pretty quick.

- Yeah, he's just-

- If someone puts him in a direction,

he runs.
- Yeah.

[Brennan laughs]

- He's just looking for a thing.

- Okay, well, I guess I just
wanna lock eyes with Buddy

and I cast Aura of Vitality on myself.

So twilight radiance
kinda emanates from me,

and then I jump down

underneath the floorboards.

- [Brennan] Wow!

Okay, sick!
- Wow!

- [Emily] Getting full cover!

- [Brennan] So getting that full cover.

You dive underneath.

Amazing!

Aura of Vitality is on you.

Where do you wanna move to?

- So right here underneath the rats,

but underneath the floorboards.

- The rats all go, "Suddenly
we feel extremely vital!"

- Yeah.
[players laugh]

- But we'll bear in mind
that you are actually flying

underneath the floorboards here.

Amazing!

Any bonus actions?

- No.
- Great.

- Not at this time.

- At the end of your turn,

Porter is going to swing on Fabian.

- Is it his turn?

- Legendary.
- Okay.

- That is going to be a hit.

- Oh, sorry!

I meant to say, once I'm under there,

can I look around and see,

do I see any mechanisms going on?

Do I see this 24-point star

built underneath the thing,

or is it just magma?

- [Brennan] It's magma.

The realm is coming through.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

Okay.

- He hit my- my new AC, 26?

- Let me see here.

He rolled a...

Let me see. He might not have, hold on.

[intense music continues]

- Ooh!
- Oh!

- Yes, he hit 26.

- Oh!
- Oh!

[players laugh]

- A sad story.

Yeah, but he did roll
quite well to hit a 26.

- Okay.

- Okay.

Fabian, I need a Strength
saving throw from you.

- Happily.


- You're Blessed also.

- Oh!

[intense music continues]

- Four.
- Four.

- 22.

- You do not save.

You are knocked prone

and take 24 points of force damage.

- Oh!
- You see

that Porter going over
you comes in and says,

"Why don't you f*cking stay down!"

And you see that, basically,
all that force damage

from before is his maul moves so fast

that it just non-magically
becomes force damage.

The physics of his maul approaching you

is such a intense pressure change

that your ribs break before
the maul touches your skin.

[Lou gasps]

- Oh!
- Okay.

Ruben, his speed is halved, right?

- Target speed is halved.

- Okay.

Ruben is gonna go one, two, three,

right here next to Buddy.

[intense music continues]

And I think he's going to...

[intense music continues]

How far away is he?

All right.

You see he moves and studies Fig.

- Wanda Childa.
- Wanda Childa.

- Oh, sorry!

Wanda Childa. That's right.

- When he moves,

I think I look at him and say,

I look at his guitar and say,

[calm music]

"Have you ever thought
of trying the ukulele?"

- His face drops as he remembers

"Bubbly Toes" and "Banana Pancakes."

[players laugh]

So instead he's gonna come up,

Ruben is going to drop a 9th level spell.

- Okay. Roll a d20.

- Okay.

Does it use the spell slot if he fails?

- Yeah.

"The creature attempts to cast spell

on an 11 or higher,

the spell doesn't take effect

until the creature's next turn.

The creature must use
its action on that turn

to complete the spell. If it
can't, the spell's wasted."

So it might just take two turns to cast.

- Gotcha. Okay.

- Is he gonna try and Time Stop?

- He raises up for a power chord,

like you saw him play
before at Frosty Fair.

This is definitely Box of
Doom, 9th level spell slot.

Riz, what does he roll that fails?

- On a 11 or higher.

- It's delayed.

- It's delayed.
- Okay.

[intense music continues]

- [Murph] So high is
good 'cause it's for us.

[intense music builds]

- Two.
- Damn!

- It is not delayed.
- Okay.

- f*ck!

- Is he within 60 feet of me?

No, right?

- Should I try to Counterspell him?

- I think this is around 60.

- It's not a spell.

It would be a Silvery Barbs thing.

- Oh.

- [Murph] Wait, what, what?

Why not Counterspell it?

Yeah.
- Because it's a 9th level

and I'd have to roll for it.

- Oh.
- I mean-

- Might be-
- Whatever



is worth try, right?
- Yeah, you might as well.

You might as well try.

- [Murph] You have Luck points and stuff.

Yeah.
- Might as well try.

- You got it.

- You got it.
- Use a 3rd level spell to try.

- And he can't

Counter your Counter.
- All right.

- Yeah.
- He doesn't have reactions.

- All right.
- Yeah.

- I'm gonna...

Although, Jace can Counter my Counter.

- Where is Jace?

- Over there.
- Jace is right up in the mix, yeah.

- Did he already

use a reaction?

Jace is just gonna Counter.
- Jace is already...

Oh. Mm.

- No, Jace-
- Jace has not used a reaction

and I don't think Oisin has
used one either, has he?

No, he has not.

- Yeah, I think my Counter
would just get Countered.

- Yeah.
- Okay.

[intense music continues]

I'm going to need Intelligence
saving throws from,

I think, everybody here,

'cause it's 90 feet.
- That reaches me?

- Yeah. He can reach you too.
- He sees me?

- It's a 90 foot range.

Does he see you?

You're still within range.

And...

- Is this a Charmed or
Frightened condition?

- Oh, that you can see.

So it can't be Kristen.

- I'm behind the-
- And it can't be Riz.

- I'm here behind the-

- He can see you.

- [Emily] He can't see Riz though.

- Worth a try.
- Riz, did you hide again?

- No, I just ran back as far as I could.

- You're further than


- Yeah.
- He's all the way back here.

- He's all the way back there.

- I'll say that Riz
and Kristen are hidden,

but K2 is visible.

Adaine, Gorgug.

- K2 is invisible and
I'm beneath the floor.

- Oh, K2's invisible!

Right, right!

Okay, so Kristen, K2,
Riz are not affected.

- Okay.
- [indistinct]

- Huh?
- Is it a cone or?

- It's every creature he
can see with a 90 feet.

- Oh, okay.

- Oh!
- Okay, great.

- And is this Charmed or Frightened?

- Nope. I need Intelligence saving throws.

- And so we add Bless to this, right,

'cause it's a saving throw?

[dice rolling]

[intense music continues]

- Oh!

- Mm-mm.

[dice rolling]

Mm-mm!

- Ooh!

- I got a 29.

- I'm gonna use a Luck point.

- 23.

- Okay.

- Oh, it was worse!

[intense music continues]

- 10.

- Also 10.

- So we're also rolling for the Hangman,

and I'll roll for Mazey as well.

[dice rolling]

- Hangman got a nine.

- Pegasus fails.

- Okay.

[dice rolling]

- Vultures fail.

- Anyone who succeeded,

which is a 17 or higher is a success,

takes 30 points of psychic damage.

Anyone who failed takes 60 points

of psychic damage and is Stunned.

- But we can't be Stunned!
- Wait. We're immune to Stun.

- Cannot be Stunned.

Hugely significant.

That was Psychic Scream.

So he raises up,

[imitates guitar chord wailing]

plays this insane power
chord on the guitar,

but all of you feel the
dull thickness of ice

in your body from eating
so much unseasoned ice.

Cannot be Stunned.

However, I believe-
- K2 thought she seasoned it.

- Can I even make a Concentration?

- [Ally] She's just that white.

- You'd have to hit a nat 20.

You'd have to hit a critical success.

- I believe.
[piano chord plays]

- Come on!

- You do get advantage.

- What is this for?
- 'Cause of Ice Feast.

- On what?
- Ice Feast.

Con saves.

- Con saves. Yeah.
- Oh yeah.

[gentle piano music]

- [groans] Dammit!

- So close.
- Oh yeah.

f*ck! I should do that too.

- Yep, everyone gimme your
Concentration saving throws.

Kristen, you're all good.

- Well, yeah.

So with Bless it would've been-

- So it's 15 for me.

- 15.
- So Ruben

attacked Wanda Childa?

Or included her in his-

- He did.

- Yeah, he did.

He did.
- Unbelievable!

- Yeah.

- What do we have to hit?
- It's like no loyalty.

- No loyalty.

Disguise Self is not
Concentration, by the way, right?

- You don't add it to Bless.

You don't add-
- Yeah, for saving throws,

yeah, you do.
- I ended up getting an 18

for my Concentrate.

Oh, that doesn't make it-

- Dirty 20.

[piano music continues]

[Brennan whistles]

- Dirty 20 on your Concentration check?

- Yes.
- So you took 30 damage, right?

- Yes.

- So the DC's 15. You succeed.

- Oh, cool.
- Great.

So you don't lose Haste.

However, how's Gerard Neigh looking?

- Gerard Neigh is still standing.

- [Brennan] Okay, amazing.

- Not happy about it,
but he's still standing.

- Still standing.

- The Hangman breaks down.

- Sire!

And the Hangman breaks down.

- [Lou] Hangman!

- Vultures are no more.

[Ally gasps]

But no rats.

[piano music continues]

Toast.

- Wait, I didn't roll their saving throws.

- He can't see 'em! He can't see 'em!

- You know what?

He can't see the rats.

That's fine.
- Oh, thank god!

They have to defend their livelihood.

- Okay.

So everyone has recorded the damage.

Nobody is Stunned.

Mazey made her save.

So takes 30 points of psychic damage.

Where are you at, Mazey?

- Would have been so
sick if the entire season

of me trying to get this guy
to be in love with Wanda Childa

had paid off in that moment.

[players laugh]

- He leans in for a kiss, but
he kills all your friends.

- It was all for a bit.
- [Brennan] It was all for a bit!

I have to feel like the
guy would've seen you

Smiting and k*lling his friends.

- That's fine. Yeah, yeah.

- Would have to be like, "Well,

I do really like her.

But on the other hand,

she is an absolute lunatic ghost

haunting my life at every turn."

- It's totally fair.

- Yeah.
- She showed up

with all of my enemies.

[players laugh]

- Replacing the person I
know has a federal agent

chasing her for constantly
disguising herself.

[players laugh]

- Yeah, maybe on some
level he knows it's fake

and he's into it.

[players laugh]
- Yeah.

- Well, he's about to
die a really bad death

'cause he took my f*cking
Spirit Guardians away.

- Ah!

- Yeah, Spirit Guardian's gone.

Did we hold Concentration over here?

Okay, cool.

- How's everyone looking?

- Okay right now.

- 55.

- 65.

- And also Gerard Neigh.

- Wait, do I have to roll for Boggy?

- Yeah, you do.
- I mean-

- I think Boggy's toast.

- It could happen.
- You can't. Boggy can't take-

- You could crit.

- Boggy can't take 30 damage.

So even if he passes-

- Is Boggy invisible?

- Why would Boggy be invisible?

- I don't see him.

[players laugh]
- [Brennan] Well, I don't see him.

It is now Porter's actual turn.

I'm gonna need Dexterity...

Uh, let me see something, actually, here.

- We are flying.

- You're flying, but you're
only 10 feet off the ground

and he's a giant.

[Lou chuckles]
Yeah, I think he's gonna use the ability

'cause Gerard Neigh is still up.

I'm gonna need Dexterity saving throws

from Fabian, Fig, and Gerard Neigh.

[intense music continues]
[dice rolling]

- Come on!

[dice rolling]

- 13.

- 21 for Gerard Neigh.

- Okay.
[intense music continues]

- Nat one for Fig.

[Brennan exhales and whistles]

- [Brennan] 7, 17, 24.

- Luck point?

- 48 force damage to Fabian,
Fig, and Gerard Neigh.

- Okay. Gerard Neigh is gone.

- Oy!
- Damn!

- So now I'm not flying anymore.

- Well, we're immune to Stun,

so at least that is what the Fly was for.

- But it's on difficult terrain.

- Oh yeah.

- You see Porter standing over you, says,

"I've had enough of this!

Get the name!

Get the name!"

[grunt of effort]

And you see he takes his massive maul

and just spinning it around.

Thuds down, Fabian, into your body

while crystal shards across Fig's face,

knocking you off Gerard Neigh

and comes down and splatters
Gerard Neigh's brains

all over the gym floor.
[players groan]

- I spit up blood

and say, with my one hit point left,

I say, "The name's Wanda f*cking Childa!"

- I mean, I understand context clues.

You know?

- And I flash Ruben. [laughs]

- [Brennan] Unbelievable!

- Coulda had this! [laughs]

[players laugh]

I'm so mad!

- Wanda!

[players laugh]

- Would Ruben's attack count

as a Mirror Image?

Can I roll for Mirror Image?

- No, saving throw.

Mirror Image only interacts with attack.

- Okay, great. That's what I figured.

- Riz, you're not in hiding, correct?

- Correct.

[intense music continues]

m*therf*cker.

- I want Oisin f*cking dead.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- I need these f*cking
Counterspellers dead.

[dice rattling menacingly]

- [Siobhan] I wish I'd
thought of that earlier.

- I've got See Invisibility

and I've got Blindsight.

Kipperlilly is hidden from me?

- I don't think she's here.

- I know, but why would he ask that?
- Or she's underground.

- Why would he ask that?

- Blindsight!

You have See Invisibility.

- I know any creature
that's hidden near me

within 10 feet.
- True Sight.

- Cool.

Kipperlilly's not using any magical means

to conceal herself.

- Okay.
- She is just Stealthing.

I'm gonna roll a straight Luck check

to see if homegirl decides
to use melee or range.

- [Murph] Okay.

- You wanna call odds or evens?

- Odds.

- Odds means she's using melee.

[die rolling]
[intense music continues]

That is a three.

- Yes!

- Ooh!

- Riz, the last possible second

you hear tidy little polished shoes

rushing up from under the bleacher.

Kipperlilly hits you,

but without advantage is not
able to use Sneak Attack.

So deals you eight points of damage.

- Okay.
- Rushes away.

You get an attack of opportunity on her.

- Okay.
[die rolling]

- [gasps] It was so close!
- So close to a nat 20!

Instead a 19.

- Wow!

- 19 hits.

- [Ally] Played with us.

- You're not gonna get Sneak Attack,

but you can go ahead and roll damage.

- Great.
[die rolling]

Damn! Bad roll!

Seven damage.

- Cool.
- But you know what?

I'll go ahead and I'll
burn Fury of the Ball

and do an extra 14 damage.

- Wow.
- So 21 damage.

- Jesus!

She runs up, gives you a
little slash with a dagger

and you whip around with
the Sword of Shadows for 21.

She goes [shouts] "Little freak!

Why wouldn't you-"
- You're a freak!

- You're a freak!
- This is what grinding does!

You might have a high
level, but you suck at PVP!

You suck at this game!
[players laugh]

You suck!

[players laugh]

- Deeply injured, she
leaps into the cracks

in between the floor, vanishing.

That is gonna be Mary Ann Skuttle.

So there's a big run of these guys

that all have an initiative in a line.

- Is she immune to Fire damage as well?

Is that why she was able to

go through the cracks?
- No, she is climbing

along on the underside.

So she's not flying,
but she just vanishes.

She's making a Stealth check.

Mary Ann, her speed is halved.

What the f*ck is she gonna do?

Hangman is down.
- Rats?

- So Mazey is near the fallen Hangman.

- So if they have level 9 spells,

are they level 20?

- I think they might be level 20.

- I knew it.

- They're all level 20.
- These m*therf*ckers!

- Yeah 'cause how would the bard

have a 9th level spell?

- Yeah.
- Hmm!

- Okay.
- Seems like they have

sh*t HPs.
- f*cking Grinders!

- I hope.

- I'd say like 50.
- Yeah, what suffers

when you level up that fast?

- A rogue/ranger should have higher HP

than being able to die in one.

- Oh, maybe!

You could be right.

Like level 20 abilities,

but they haven't taken the time, right?

- [Siobhan] Maybe.

- [Brennan] 5, 10, 15, 20.

So her speed is halved, right?

- Yes.
- Yes. Okay.

Mary Ann, sluggishly,
looking at her quirky pet

on her little device,

is going to take a movement

and use her action to move,

close with Mazey, right?

No, she doesn't. No,

she can't attack Mazey.
So who she's gonna go for?

Nah, she's gonna start,

I think she's gonna rush over to Jace.



So she just jumps over here near Oisin.

Jace, I don't feel good.

[players laugh]

[players laugh]

- Why is that the funniest bad guy?

[players laugh]
- She is so funny!

- Just the lowest Charisma
of anybody we've ever met.

- She can't attack anyone, so she runs.

- I just relate to her more than most-
- Jace, do you have a-

- ...depictions of teenage girls.
- ...juice or a bandaid?

[players laugh]

Yes, this is much more accurate.

- This is like "gray hoodie
every day" kinda girl.

- I will say, when I was
making the Rat Grinders,

I was like, "So much of
this world is teen movies."

I was like, "Mary Ann will be
an homage to real teenagers."

- Actual teens.
- Yes. Actual teenagers.

- Yes.
- Yes.

- I don't feel good.
- Okay.

[players laugh]

What level is Slowness?

- It is 3rd level.

- Buddy looks over and says,

"Let the angry screams
of Bacharath cleanse you

of this terrible magic, brother,"

and touches Ruben, casting Dispel Magic.

But that's his whole turn,

instead of doing anything damaging.

- Oh, Dispel Magic?

I'm gonna Counterspell that.

- Great!
- I don't want

this f*ck having...

Yeah, Counterspell.

- Oh sh*t!

It goes away!
[hands clap]

- [Siobhan] 3rd level.

- You look over and Ruben says,

"Wanda, why do you want me Slowed?"

- Because I wanna see you f*cking dead!

- What?
- I wanna see you

die f*cking slowly.
[players laugh]

- No!

[players laugh]
- I'm f*cking Figueroth Faeth

and you wasted my f*cking season!

You were a waste of time!

- [Brennan] What?

What do you mean?

You're k*lling my friends!

I had to Psychic Scream!

- [Emily] You suck!

You don't deserve a 9th level spell.

Your music sucks now,

it sucked then.
- What?

No, it's song of the summer!
- There's not genre

in which you can take refuge.

- What?
- Your natural shittiness

will leak into every chord you play

for the rest of your life,

which is gonna be f*cking short.

[players cackling]

- Oh my god!
- Unbelievable!

Okay, he's still Slowed.

He is still Slowed.

Buddy goes, "I don't understand!

Why would Bacharath abandon
me in my moment of need?

Bacharath!
[players laugh]

I believe in you!"
- Don't you love me?

- And you see Jace goes,

"Buddy, Bacharath is not real!"

And you see that Adaine Abernant,

it's gonna be your turn.

- [Siobhan] Oh, hell yeah!

Can you pass over a 20
foot radius sphere for me?

- Here we go!

- Gorgeous!
- [Murph] I don't feel good.

- Oh, look at that!
- Oh no!

- Oh wow!
- Oh, what?

- Oh my god!

Oh no!
- Yeah!

- They grouped up!

- Oh f*cking no!
- Oisin.

- The vultures get their,

because they grappled Oisin.

- That's every single one of your guys

in that little circle.

- [Murph] The vultures were [indistinct]

- I cannot believe that clustering.

God dammit!

- I just sat here just watching you

cluster all of them into
my little f*cking web.

- The Rat Grinders would cluster.

- If you hadn't Slowed them

[players laugh]

so that they all are going...

They were clustering to get dispelled.

Oh my god!
- Yes.

- Okay.
- And this spell

has 120 foot range.

- [Ally] Okay.

- I'm casting Synaptic Static,

which is an Intelligence
saving throw for them.

- Oh my god!

Okay. Your DC is 18?

- My DC is 18.
- So you're out of range

of Counterspells.

- I'm out of range of Counterspells.

- Yeah!

- Wow!

Holy sh*t!
- What?

- Okay.

Here we go. Here we go.
[Ally whistles]

Okay, we'll roll one by one.

This will be for Ruben.

Ruben did not make it.

Intelligence, let's see here.

[intense music]

No, there's no f*cking way.

Mary Ann, she's really cool, but-

[players laugh]

- Not hyper intelligent?
- She's so nice!

- I'm not gonna lie to you.

Mary Ann gets a minus one to
Intelligence saving throws

and made the save.

She rolled a 19 on the die.
- What?

- Buddy fails as well.

Oisin?

Let's see how our buddy
Oisin is doing here.

We'll roll for Jace as well.

Jace does not succeed either.

- Jace looks like Harry Potter.

- [Emily] Yeah.

[Emily laughs]

- He does look like Harry Potter.

- And then Oisin-

- He has a wand.
- I don't know, guys.

- [Murph] Does he have a wand?

- [Ally] I guess I don't see the front.

I just see the wand and a scarf.

- He's got red glasses.
- Just regular

clothes, I guess.

- [Ally] And hat.

- Oisin succeeds.

- I will Silvery Barbs Mary Ann.

- Okay.

[die rolling]

And Mary Ann fails.

- Ooh!
- Great.

So they each take



except for Oisin who takes 15.

All of the ones that failed,

"The target has muddled
thoughts for one minute.

During that time it rolls a d6

and subtracts the number rolled
from all of its attack rolls

and ability checks as well as
its Constitution saving throws

to maintain Concentration."

- Yeah!
- Unbelievable!

- Yeah!
- And then,

they make Intelligence saving throws

at the end of each of their turns.

- These guys' bells are getting rung.

Wait, you said it's 30 damage for all-

- 30 damage each. Yes.

- Okay.

- Everybody but Oisin

will roll any Constitution
checks with disadvantage.

- Okay, Mary Ann has that as well.

Mary Ann has resistance to psychic damage.

So you see her.
- Okay, great.

- Buddy's gonna take a full 30.

Buddy has to roll

a very important
Concentration saving throw.

I think Ruben does as well.

- Oh wait, I can't Silvery Barbs Mary Ann

'cause I'm more than


- Okay, so never mind.
- Oh!

- So in that case, she's
just gonna take seven.

- So she'll just take seven damage

and she doesn't have the minus d6.

- Hell yes.

Jace is gonna take 30.

Very importantly, as you
damage Jace with this spell,

you get the sensation that,

because you went before
Jace in the initiative,

something very important has happened,

that you have hurt Jace
in a meaningful way

before he does something very frightening.

- [Lou] Mm!

- So we're gonna roll.
- Do you wanna take-

- It's DC 15.
- Why don't you take the card

'cause this is my last 5th level spell?

So I can't cast...
- Synaptic Static, wow!

- Keep the change!

- This is really f*cking handy.

- Keep the change!

- So this is very significant for Ruben,

who's focusing on Fig.

[intense music]

- What?
- 16 minus 3 is 13.

What's he add to Constitutions?

As long as he has a plus two.

[intense music continues]

He only has a plus one.

Ruben loses Concentration.

Jesus, that's so bad!

Buddy is gonna roll.

This is also incredibly significant.



That's a nine on the die!

Does he have a plus six?
Oh, he does have a plus six.

Okay, Buddy just saves.

Then, Mary Ann makes her save.

Oisin is not rolling.

He's already been walloped.

He has no Concentration to speak of.

Jace, and you'll see why in a second,

is gonna roll four simultaneous
Concentration saving throws.

- Oh my god!
- Whoa!

- Four Concentration?
- Four Patronuses.

[players laugh]

- Hagrid's big egg!

[players laugh]

- It's gonna roll out.

- K2 eats Hagrid's big egg.

[players laugh]

- And that's her movement.

- You feel Jace fail three of four

Concentration saving throws.
- Great!

- Yeah!
[Brennan shouts]

- [Ally] Oh my god!

- [Brennan] Unbelievable!

- [Lou] Only one of Hagrid's
big egg is gonna come up.

- Okay, Adaine, that's your action.

Any bonus actions, any movement?

- I actually might go

under the stage with Kristen.

- The two of you f*cking floating around

down there.
- [Siobhan] Just to get cover.

- [Brennan] Cool!

- You know, since we're...

Uh! But, mm.

But for Counterspells.

Maybe I'll actually
just move over to here.

- Sailing forward with the
Sword of Sight in your hand.

That is Adaine's turn.

Mazey has got the bag of votes,

sees Fabian prostrate on the ground

with Porter towering over him,

is going to leap into battle.

Oh my god! Thanks!

I don't know, I feel complicated

about some of the stuff you said,

but it was all in my defense
and I- [Emily laughs]

- The skinning part?

- What's that?

Don't!
[players laugh]

- Or b*tch with a hard B!

- Yeah.
[players laugh]

- I think it was the
losing the virginity part.

- There was a lot that I said.

- Wow, it seems like there's a lot-

- On a rug made of elf skin.
- I thought it was all poetry.

- Mazey's gonna grant you a
d10 Bardic Inspiration die.

- Great.
[players laugh]

- She is gonna make-
- You are an elf.

- Yeah, that's kinda why
I feel weird about it.

- And he is, too.

- Well, kinda. Yeah.

- And takes unarmed strikes at Porter.

Now we see why Adaine
beating Jace in initiative

was so f*cking significant.

And you caught him before the split.

Jace turns into four
different versions of himself,

[slurps] spreading out
across the b*ttlefield

and is now going to go.

- Mirror Image style?

- It looks like each of these sub-versions

have Mirror Images of themselves.

But he has some greater
casting of Mirror Image

as he splits up to move
across the b*ttlefield.

- So it could have been 12?

- Well, the main thing
is you dealt 30 damage

to all four of these before the split

that he failed on one saving throw.

- Got it.
- Mm!

- So basically, you turned


- Great.
[Zac whistles]

- Okay, I'm going to need

a Wisdom saving throw from Figueroth.

- Okay.

[die rolling]

[intense music continues]

Fail.

- With Bless also?

- Yeah, even with Bless,
it can't get me there.

- That last Concentration check,

this Jace Prime moves forward

to be nearer to Porter, looking at you,

looking down at Oisin,

and uses his whole action

for the Detect Thoughts
that he has on you,

and goes, "Name?"

And on a failed save,

you can feel the-
[players laugh]

- You don't have a Luck
point or anything to-

- Yeah, I'll try a Luck point.

[die rolling]
[intense music continues]

It's worse.

- Dives through, grabs the name.

You can see him stand there

with the Detect Thoughts

look up and say, "Porter!

Porter, we need the votes!"

and leap back.

That's his action.

The rest are now going to go.

And you see that he shouts
the name aloud in this space.

As he does so,

the gym comes even further apart.

- Oh!
- Oh wow!

- Oh!
- Oh maybe I'm gonna

fall into the lava.

- Oh sh*t!

It's on like wires!

- Oh wow!

Oh wow!

- How are they doing that?

Oh wow!

That's cool!

- That's so sick!

- [Zac] It's funny when bad
things are happening to us

and you're like-
- [Murph] Awesome, lava.

- [Siobhan] This is
stuck to here, I think.

- Cool! And then we can
leave that right there.

That's great for right now.

Some of you that were getting total cover

see that, as these come apart even more,

some visibility is exposed,

people can see you and not see you.

But Ivy's still there,

Fabian's still here with Porter.

Or actually, Fabian, you
kind of drop a little bit

underneath Porter, who
stays up on this segment.

- Whoa!

- These guys are sort of
floating up and further away.

The rats are still back over there.

Gorgug, you're still back over there.

So-

- Should I do a Dex save
or fall into the lava?

- Not yet. You don't need to do it yet.

- [mouthing] We're fireproof.
- Also, these other Jaces

are going to go.

I'm going to need from...

Okay, that Jace is there.

This one is gonna reel over to see Fabian.

This one is gonna go for Fig

and this one is gonna look over at Adaine.

I'm gonna need a Constitution
saving throw from Fabian.

- We have an advantage
on those because of-

- Being so cold.
- [Siobhan] Ice Feast,

and Bless as well.

- 'Cause of all that damn ice I ate.
[dice rolling]

Oh baby!

[die rolling]

- That's a three.

- Okay.



- Okay, 18 passes.

- Okay, I was ready to use the
Bardic, but I don't have to.

- Oh wait. Hold on one second.

You might need to use that Bardic.

Sorry, I'm on the wrong

stat block
- God dammit!

- Yes, you may wanna roll that Bardic.

[die rolling]

- 23.

- 23 passes!

- Oh, thank god!
- Woo!

- Okay.

You are going to take

[too many dice ratting]



- It's over, baby.

- 28.

That's gonna do it?

- [Lou] Yeah.

Only had seven.

- Finger of Death.

[Brennan imitates expl*si*n]

Necrotic damage.

Fabian drops.

I could be wrong. I think
it just drops you to zero.

I think you're making death saves.

- I think-
- As opposed to being dead?

- [Murph] Unless it specifically says-

- Yeah, unless it specifically says.

"A humanoid k*lled by this spell

rises at the start of the nearest turn."

But you're not k*lled.

So you're at zero.

You're making death saves.

- Okay.
- Fabian drops.

- Fabian!

- Yeah, one's gonna go for you.

I'm gonna need an
Intelligence saving throw.

- Okay.

[die rolling]



Oh, actually.

[dice rolling]

I rolled a four on it. 21.

- 21 saves!

[pleasant adventure music]

- What happens on a save?

- What happens on a save?

- Better than failing!

[Siobhan laughs]

- Oh god!

- Why? What's up?

What's going on?

- Oh, I just have one
hit point, that's why.

- Yes, yes, yes.
[players laugh]

- [indistinct]

Yeah, I believe you
are gonna go down still

just from taking half.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, it's only 12 points of damage,

but halved to six.
- Yeah, yeah.

- Yeah.

Fig and Fabian both making
death saves way in the end zone.

Our last one here is gonna go for Adaine.

[adventurous music builds]

Let me see.

Does he have the range?

- [Ally] Okay. Okay.

- Cool.

Jace runs up here next to Ruben,

is gonna hit Adaine with another spell.

Go ahead and gimme a
Constitution saving throw.

- With advantage.

[dice rolling]
[adventurous music continues]

- Dirty 20.

- You feel yourself restrained,

floating in midair

as you feel your skin
begin to turn to stone.

[players groan]

- Oh!

- Oh dear!
- This is bad.

Can you Flash of Genius?
- Oh!

I have to be within 30 feet, I think.

- Damn! Okay, never mind.
- Hold on one minute.

Let's see.

It's close.
- Close?

- Let me see here.

- [Zac] Is this 30 feet?

- No.
- Mm.

- You feel yourself
beginning to turn to stone.

- Yes, this is pretext.
- In the first round,

all it is is you are restrained.

- Yeah.
- We continue in initiative.

That's all the Jaces.

Gorgug Thistlespring, that is your turn.

[intense rock music]
- sh*t!

- This is your first turn?

- This is my first turn.

- You go, baby.
- We do have to,

we gotta f*cking k*ll Oisin

before we get around to Buddy again.

- Yeah.

- Gorgug.

I have Fly and I have Haste.

So I have 120 movement.
- Oh my god!

- So I think I'm flying
all the way to here.

- [Brennan] Mm-hmm.

- I have enough room to get to Porter,

but I'm flying to here

and I'm gonna take a
Returning axe throw on Oisin.

- Okay.

- Reckless.
- Reckless. Here you go.

- Thank you.
[dice rolling]

- 18 plus 12?

- Absolutely gonna do it.

- Okay.

- Doesn't Gorgug crit on 18?

[players laugh]

- [Siobhan] Yeah, I'm pretty sure he does.

- Worth a shot. Worth a shot.

- [Ally] Doesn't he?
- That's-

- Yeah.

That sounds really familiar.

- Should I roll?

I mean, if I can k*ll him in one hit-

- [Brennan] Mm-hmm.

- I will do something else.

So should I see if that actually-

- Roll damage if you wanna
do it piece by piece.

Go for it.
[rock music continues]

- Okay.
[die rolling]

That is only gonna be...

With my potion, my damage,

my just basic stuff that I
add to it, goes up to 11.

So I did 14 damage.

- 14 damage.

Oisin is still up,

but looking absolutely terrible.

[rock music continues]

- I will do one more.

- [Brennan] Cool.

- Make sure to cut his head
off so he can't be revivified.

[players laugh]

Riz says, like a maniac.

- 20.
[players laugh]

That's gonna be a 24.

- That's gonna hit.

- Okay. And this is just-
- Riz is awesome!

- Yes, Riz!

[players laugh]
[die rolling]

[rock music continues]

- That's gonna be another 15 damage.

- On death's door.

[rock music continues]

- Oh god!

- I will use my Frenzy-

- Cool.
- Attack on him.

- That's your d12.
- Gotcha.

- Oh, whoops!

[rock music continues]

[dice rolling]

Nat 20.

- Unbelievable!

[Emily laughs]

- Bye!

So that would be-

- Maybe this cuts his head off?

- Yeah.
- Yeah!

- We're all thinking
the same thing, right?

- Crit?
- We're all thinking

the same thing.
- Yeah, sounds like

it cuts his head off to me.
- These are re-rolled.

Well, actually, all of
them are re-roll 'cause-

- Why?

Were they...
- Ones and twos.

- Oh! Oh, sorry!
[dice rolling]

Thought maybe we were honoring something.

[players laugh]
- That's a 19 plus 6 plus-

- [Lou] Thought you were taking
some time to maybe reflect.

- [Ally] Maybe you had
honor for something?

- 25, 35.
- [Murph] I don't want

any of you talking to me.
[Siobhan laughs]

- Describe what this looks like

as you hit Oisin with
all three of these blows.

- I just keep spinning around,

flying through the air
like a little tornado,

screaming,
[players laugh]

on hold with the podcast producer and-

[players laugh]

- Yes!

- And just thrown the last
axe into Oisin's chest.

- Split his chest, bam!

Sundering the floor even
more underneath him.

Oisin is no more.

So Fig and Fabian are both
down, making death saves.

Ivy and Oisin are both defeated.

Ruben and Mary Ann are still Slowed.

Buddy is maintaining
Concentration on something,

and Jace has quadrupled

- On Haste, if I can use this last action

to take an attack on Porter?

- Hell yeah!
- And try to Grapple him

and pull him this way.

- If you wanna take him and make-

- I just wanna shove him against the wall.

- How much speed did you use getting here?

- So I was right here,
and this is, I think, 90.

- [Brennan] 90. Gotcha.

- Or if you wanna check it.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Lemme see here.

So this is 80.

Yeah, so about 90, right?

- So I wanna try to grab him

and throw him against the wall over here

to keep him out of-

- [Brennan] How much
movement do you have left?

- 30.

- Okay, so a Grapple with him

and you could move him 15 feet away,

over to this corner.

Go ahead and roll.

He's gonna roll.

I'm not gonna lie, he's
gonna roll with advantage.

Porter, to Athletics, adds 15.

- Okay.

- I add...

Right now, my Athletics is 12.

- [Brennan] Okay.

- I add 12.

- He rolls an 8, which is 23.

So you need to beat a 23.

- [Lou] You got this, dude.
[die rolling]

- I rolled a 30.

- Unbelievable!

So Porter's standing over Fig and Fabian,

goes, "I'm gonna watch you burn!"

And what does he feel on his back?

- [Zac] Let's burn together!

And just pull him away.

- So you grab him, yank his throat

and pull this giant,

slamming him into the wall over here,

away from Mazey, away from everybody else,

out of range of all of them,

grappled onto his back.

Gonna take little Gorgug here

and I'm just gonna blue tack
you onto his f*cking back.

Gorgug, you are on his back,

trying to dodge the spiky crystals there

as you are flying.
- David and Goliath!

- Amazing!

So that's your turn, correct?
- That would be my turn.

- Oisin went right after you, did not

even get a turn in combat.
- Yes!

- If they're the most dangerous,

we need to f*cking focus fire.

- Oh.

Tell Grandma I said, "Hello."
- Okay.

[players laugh]

At the end of your turn,

Porter's gotta take a swing.

So he is grappled by you.

He Recklesses, so you know
that you have advantage on him.

- Mm-hmm.

[dice rolling]

- That's gonna be a hit on Gorgug.


- Fabian's high on-

- And that's not halved?

- Unless you have a way of halving it.

- Well, just because of
Rage, I wasn't sure if force-

- No, no, no, no.

So yeah, he deals 33 force damage.

It's just so much harder than
anything you've ever felt,

Wham!

As this maul slams into you.

That's his first Legendary Action.

After that, it's gonna go back to the top.

Riz, that is you.

- Okay.

Can I, since I just hit
Kipperlilly with a sword,

can I do an Investigation
check to see if I see...

So I just need to get
within 10 feet of her?

- Yes.
- So difficult terrain.

I'm hoping I can just...

First off, am I in within


- You are not within 10
feet of her right now.

- Can I do an Investigation check to see

if there's blood splatters
at all or anything?

Just enough to get me
like in her general area

to see where to move.

- Let's have it roll off
as you surge forward.

So she's gonna roll Stealth.

She has Reliable Talent.

I will let you know right
now, as you jump forward,

you need to beat a 27 on an Investigation-

- Okay.
- ...in order

to spot Kipperlilly.

What do you need to roll on
the die in order to do that?

- 13.

- 13, okay.

[die rolling]

- No good.

- She has gone somewhere
outside of where the blood...

She's crawled to some other
platform that you cannot see.

- Hmm, hmm, hmm.

Kipperlilly, Kipperlilly, Kipperlilly.

- I also know where she
is on the b*ttlefield,

but in other words, if
you were to move there,

your Blindsense would pick her up.

- Great.
- But it's just that

you can't use an Investigation
to auto know where she is.

- I'm going to

hop under,

just do a straight drop
down to the ground,

sort of beneath.

Just ploop!

- Gotcha. Cool, cool, cool.
- So five.

And then, is it difficult
terrain once I'm down here?

- Quite, yes.

- Oh it is. Okay, never mind.

Okay.

I can't get too far then.

I'll go to here.

- [Brennan] Cool.

- Is she there anywhere?

- Oh, she's not there.

- Okay.

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm.

Okay, so what should I do?

What should I do?

- There's so many casters.

- Yeah.

- [indistinct] you have Misty Step.

- I do have...

That's true.

- The railing into Misty Step.

- Okay.

Yeah, first thing's first.

Maybe I'll hop down,

use as little movement as possible.

I think that's 10 feet
just to get down there,

and then I'm going to Misty Step 30 feet

to get just further across
the b*ttlefield here to-

- [Brennan] Cool.

- I guess, right at the edge of that lava.

- [Brennan] Cool. Go for it.

- [Murph] And do I sense her anywhere?

- As you move further through there,

you do not sense her anywhere.

So you're moving to this
little island in the center.

- However far I can get
across 30 feet, I will go,

however far 30 feet is across under

the bleachers here.
- Gotcha.

Yeah, for sure.

You just get under these bleachers here?

- Or no. Just kinda in the
middle so that I have options.

- [Brennan] Line of sight?

Yeah, yeah. Gotcha.
- Yeah.

- We'll throw you right in here.

- [Murph] Okay.

[intense music]

- Here we go.

- [Murph] Yeah. And then I
guess, you know what I'll do?

Why don't I do a Misty...

Okay, so I can get to there.

- Yeah.
- Great.

And then from there, I guess I can't...

Can I see Porter from there?

- Yeah, he's up on the wall right here.

You can see him from where you are.

- Great.

Yeah. I'll just take a
shot at Porter, I guess.

- He's within five feet of an ally.

You'll get Sneak Attack.
- Why not?

- Great.
- Why not?

- [Murph] Okay.

- And Porter's uninjured in this combat.

- Yeah.

Come on!
- Aw!

[intense music continues]

- Oh baby!

That's



- [Brennan] Ooh! That is a hit.

- And I don't know if he's
gonna have resistance to this,

but kind of as a bit,

we changed the g*n to be radiant damage

for photosynthesis.

- We did!

- Which might do more
damage than the piercing

that it used to do.

- Absolutely!

All right.

- Just in case his Rage
doesn't help with that.

[dice rattling]

Let's see.

[dice rolling]
[intense music continues]

- Straight up Beardsley energy.

That was crazy!
[players laugh]

Okay.


- The Kramer of dice rolls.

[players laugh]

- You can't call yourself
the Kramer of that!

- Then I didn't.

- I think it was good enough that you can,

[Siobhan laughs]

especially in that outfit.

[players laugh]

- 43 damage?

- Whoa!

- [Siobhan] Nice!
[players laugh]

- And then I cannot hide,

but I would like to use the
rest of my five feet of movement

to completely submerge myself in lava.

[Ally gasps]
[Siobhan laughs]

[upbeat rock music]

- [Ally] That's right!

- Okay.
- That's right!

That's right! That's fire!
- Oh, because we're immune

to fire?
- That's right!

- Oh no!
- We're immune to fire!

- What's Kipperlilly gonna do?

- That's why I was trying to
get dropped into the lava!

- [Murph] I just swim.

I just [shivers]

- I'm gonna say, on me not understanding

that Ice Feast would do this,

[players laugh]

you see Kipperlilly right
here go, "What the f*ck?"

[players laugh]

- This is why I was trying to
say I needed to do a Dex save

to fall in the lava.

- Unbelievable!
- Wow!

- As Riz goes, "Bloop!"
into the f*cking lava.

[Siobhan laughs]
- Oh my god!

- [Brennan] Wait!

This is only a hazard to my guys!

- Yep.
- Yeah.

[Brennan laughs]
- Why did I do this?

- You wrote the spell!

It's a homebrewed spell!

And then you reminded us-

- Don't make up your own spells.

Don't do it.
[players laugh]

Don't do it.
- We weren't sure

it was a hazard to your guys, at least.

[players laugh]
- Yeah.

But it's good to know!

- Yeah, that's very real.

- We're all gonna go down there

and just straight up fight us in the lava.

- Unbelievable!
- Fight me in the lava!

- Okay, that is your turn, Riz.

You jump into the lava.

Figueroth, you have one hit point

and we have gotten to your turn.

- No, I have zero hit points now.

- [Brennan] Oh no, you have zero.

That's right. Yes, yes, yes.

Now you have zero.

- It's okay.

All I need to do is crit.
- Death save.

- I don't.

I fail.

- All right, that is a failure.

Fabian, let's get a death save from you.

- What's up, dude?
- No!

- You ready for this crit?

- Yeah.
- I am!

- Get the bad ones out.

Ready for it.
- Yeah, get the bad ones out.

[blows] You know, not that one.

- Yeah, okay.
- This is it.

This is it.
- Okay.

- [blows] Get that out.

Get that out.
- Okay, okay.

- Come on.
[Lou blows]

- [Siobhan] Great, great.

Yeah. Here we go.

- Be good.

Be good for me.
- Maybe me and Fabian

should have been giving
each other the Help action

while we're down here, dead.
- In death?

[players laugh]

[die rolling]

[tense music]

- Ooh! So close!

- It's not. It's a 16 though.

- I thought it was a one.
- All right.

- [Siobhan] Yeah, it was close.

- [Brennan] All right.

- I have to make a Concentration check.

I forgot.
- Oh, for your Haste.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Go for it.
- And that's with advantage?

[dice rolling]

- [Brennan] With advantage.

- Yes.
- And Bless.

- Yes.
- Oh no, not Bless.

[dice rolling]
[tense music continues]

- 18 plus 8, 26.

- Yeah, you make it.

No worries.

Fabian, end of your turn,

Porter taking another swing on Gorgug.

That's a hit.

[tense music continues]

Here we go.

That's gonna be...

You take 33 points of force damage.

[Brennan roars]

He looks at you,

"You were always a
little f*cking weakling!

You don't know the first
thing about how to get mad!"

- I feel like I'm pretty
f*cking mad right now.

- What were you gonna do?

Unless I dragged you outta
that stupid f*cking tree.

- You're a f*cking
horrible teacher. [laughs]

You're a bad teacher.

- No, I'm not!
- Look at what you're doing.

[players laugh]

- This is f*cking good!

I'll teach the whole world!

Whacks you again with the hammer.

That is gonna be Kristen Applebees' turn.

- Cool. Okay.

[tense music continues]

- I'm not doing great.

Yeah.

[tense music continues]

- I'm fine.

[players laugh]

- So you're continuing to fly.

You get all the way over there.

Awesome.
- And I'm still underneath.

So I'm underneath this floorboard.

- [Brennan] Okay.

- Who's in a 30 foot radius?

Can I get everybody?

Where are you?

- Oh wow! That's right!

You're flying underneath.

You've got that cover!

- I'm here.

- Oh, you're underneath.
- You got that good good.

- Good for you!

Smart!

- 30.

If you're there, 30 is all of your allies,

and then not quite Adaine,

but I'm trying to think.

- [Emily] Who hasn't been hurt yet.

- I have, I took that first, the Ruben.

- [Emily] Okay.

- [Brennan] If you were here,

would that bring you to 30 to Adaine?

Adaine would be there
and you'd get everybody

if you were right in that spot.

- So I'm there. I'm underneath,

I'm gonna Mass Cure Wounds everybody.

- Does that require line of sight

for you to be able to cast?

- "A wave of healing
energy washes from a point

of your choice within range.

Up to six creatures in a 30 foot radius

centered on that point.

Each target regains hit points."

- [Brennan] Nothing about sight?

- Doesn't say anything about sight.

- Unbelievable!

- Yes!
- So you are

un-Counterspell-able

by the f*cking army of spellcasters

before you, due to some
incredibly clever tactics.

[dice rolling]

- Okay!

That is...

Let's see.

[tense music continues]









- Yes!

- [Ally] 23 HP back to all of you.

- Oh my god!
- Four of you?

- [Brennan] How many people?

- It can be up to six.

- Okay.
- Creatures of my choice.

- Mazey is also slightly injured,

so she'll take 23 as well.

- Yeah, if you're there too.

Yeah.
- Why not?

- Hell yeah!

- 60.
- Oh yeah!

'Cause you're underneath!

I just didn't see you.
- Yeah.

- Okay. Yeah, great.

So all of you guys.

And then I can also, with my
Aura of Vitality bonus action,

cure a little bit more.

And I don't think that counts as a spell

'cause I've already cast-
- No, it's already

cast in this.
- Rad!

- How much is that?

- This is just 2d6.

But who would like a...

Yeah? Fig?

Okay.
- Yeah.

- Oh no!

It's three. I'm sorry.

- I will take three!
- That's such a poor roll.

- [Brennan] Unbelievable, Kristen!

Fig and Fabian are back up.

[players gasp]

- I was a ghost, and then I died!

- [Ally] Question for you, Brennan.

- Yes.
- If it's all in a row,

is it still difficult terrain

if K2 is running on this little corner?

- No, just on that, that
one's gonna be normal.

- [Murph] I think you can also.

Mass Cure Wounds, it doesn't
radiate from you, right?

- Yeah. I can pick a choice within range.

Yeah.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. For sure.

- So it's 30 feet within 60.

- Oh, okay. Great!

So then I'll get even a
little bit more hidden.

I'll be in the middle of this, underneath,

and then I'll have chosen that point,

just roughly.
- Point! Amazing!

- Still invisible right here.

- Awesome!
- And so,

I'm just gonna be inching forward.

- You could probably hit 'em
with another Mass Cure Wounds

if you have the spell slots, or if-

- I could use some more health if you-

- Yeah, these guys are
gonna go down every turn.

- Okay.

Yeah, let's do it

- Doubling up.

- K2's gonna do Mass Cure Wounds?

- She is!

- She's invisible.

- And she's invisible.
- So again.

- Invisible.

- Can't Counter!

Oh my god!

[dice rolling]
- A lot worse.

[players laugh]

Much, much worse.

Okay.

- Hooey!
- 10.

- I will take it.
- I'll take it.

- I will take it.
- Did you add your Con?

- I did.

[players laugh]
- [Murph] Or Wis, yeah.

- Unbelievable though!

What are our hit point totals now?

We've gone from zero to-

- 36.

- [Brennan] 36.

- 33.
- 33.

Wow!

- I'm at 105. 'cause of Ice Feast.

- 'Cause of Ice Feast.

g*dd*mn!
- I come back to life,

but I'm playing dead.
- 78.

- Gotcha.



Okay.

Ruben is gonna look at Mazey

and he's gonna make her
make a Wisdom saving throw

as he plays his guitar.

And you hear what he says as he goes,

♪ Throw the bag in the lava ♪

And is gonna try to get her
to throw the bag in the lava.

But first, he's Slowed,

so he has to roll to see if
it happens this turn or not.

- Okay.
- "An 11 or higher,

spell doesn't take effect."

- Come on!

Big money! Big money!

[die rolling]

- Three.
[intense music continues]

- I have a reaction, right?

Since I'm back up?

- You're back up and you have a reaction.

- And I had a turn.

Do I have a reaction?

- You have line of sight on him. Yeah.

- Do you guys want me
to Counterspell this?

- Yeah!

- Yes? Let's do it?
- Give it a shot.

- All right.
- Up to you.

- [Brennan] Okay.

Counterspell.

- You need a 10 or higher.

- I have to roll for it?

- Oh, sorry!

Well, he's casting Dominate Person so-

- Oh, he is!

- He's casting-
- Okay, well,

I didn't know that,

so I was only doing a 3rd level.

I thought he was doing
Suggestion, that's why.


- 10 or higher. Here we go.

[die rolling]

- Ooh!

Seven.
- You gotta a honor!

- Flash of Genius.

- Oh sh*t!

There it is!
- Thank you!

- That gets you...

Oh, there it is!

So he [imitates guitar strumming]

and you whoa!

Smack that out of the air.

- Last one.

- Mm.

- Actually, you know what?

- There's a bunch of Jaces nearby

who can see Fig in this moment.

- Okay.

- They know there's a flock of them,

so they're gonna try to do it
with 3rd level spell slots.

But these are the dudes,
these guys right here.

This one I'm gonna say does not have

line of sight to you.

So we're just gonna roll-
- I mean, my Counterspell

was only a 3rd level Counterspell.

- [Brennan] Okay. Gotcha.

- So the first one it
does it, it will work.

- Copy that. Okay.

So Counterspell, it takes place.

Bam!

You see Mazey gets hit
with that Dominate Person.

- She had both waves of the
Mass Healing Word, right?

- Yes, yes. She got both of them.

I'm gonna just roll a Luck check though

because, the way reactions work,

I don't think there would be
coordination between the Jaces.

So I'm gonna see if
they would've fired off

a volley of Counterspells
at the same time.

We'll just call it high and low.

So one through 10, they
fired off a Counterspell,

even though it was redundant.

[die rolling]

Six.

One of them's used a reaction

to fire off another Counterspell.

[die rolling]



All three of them Counter the same spell.

Use their reactions.
[Emily laughs]

This one in the back has
not used his reaction yet.

After Ruben, it is Porter's turn.

Porter is going to-

- Can he move?

- He's grappled by-
- Oh, he's grappled.

That's right!

Okay.

So in that case,

I'm gonna see if he recharges
one of his abilities.

He does, but he's not gonna use it

'cause he's f*cking grappled right now.

First thing's first is,

who's within 60 feet of
Porter and can see him?

- I mean, technically
we were on the ground.

- I don't know if I am.

You might wanna-

- Yeah, you're there.

So Riz is in the lava still.

Kristen is under this, so it doesn't,

but K2 is gonna need to do this.

I'm gonna need Wisdom savings
throws from everybody.

- Okay.
- Just because

we can see him?

- See him.

No, sorry. Actually, it's hear him, too.

So only Riz is saved.

Even the one underneath
him, it's see and hear him.

- We don't do that with advantage, right?

- No.

[dice rolling]

- Nat 20.
- [Murph] f*ck this.

[dice rolling]

- 19 on the die, b*tch!

[Lou sighs]

- That's an 11 for me.

- 16 for Fig.

- I got a 26.

- 10

- 10?
- Nat 20,

and then a 25.

- Okay.

Both Kristens save.

The failed save, actually, in
this instance does not matter.

It is a Frightening Presence.

So everyone is Frightened
as he [roars] bellows.

You're raging.
- Okay.

- So you're-
- Heart of Vulture King.

- Heart of the Vulture King

- Immune to fear for 24 hours.

- Okay. Amazing.

Fig, you are frightened.

Adaine.

Oh sorry. Actually...

What's that?
- Oh, I have to roll

with disadvantage.
- You have to

roll with disadvantage, yep.

[die rolling]
[intense music continues]

- Well, I rolled a three on my Bless,

so that's seven plus eight,

which is probably not high enough.

- 15?
- 15.

- 15.

No, 15 is not high enough.

- Did he have to roll to do this?

No, because he's gonna use a multiattack,

he just does his Frightful Presence.

You see him bellowing as he goes.

"I'm the new god of wrath.

I will bring this town

into the afterlife with me

and rule as I restore

the House of Cliffbreaker
to our rightful place!"

He is going to take swings on you, Gorgug.

He's gonna do Reckless.

So he's gonna roll Recklessly.

[dice rolling]

- Just to double check,

that Flash of Genius was used

in that Counterspell.
- Yes.

Yes, it was.

[dice rolling]
[intense music continues]

That is a hit.

- So remember that he used Reckless Attack

so you don't have to.

- To use it on him?

Yeah.
- Mm-hmm.

- Gorgug, I'm gonna need you to make three

Strength saving throws.

- You got this, Gorgug.

- You got this!
- First one.

- Gorgug, you got this!
[dice rolling]

- Bless, and don't forget
to add your new Strength.

- This is



[intense music continues]



- Amazing. Save.

- And then, second one-

- Mm.
[dramatic music]

[dice rolling]

- Is



- Mm!
- Okay.

- And the third one

[dice rolling]

is



- Unbelievable!

You are not knocked prone

by this f*cking giant.

However, he deals 32 force damage.

[dramatic music continues]
- Okay.

- He deals 34 force damage

[tense music]

and he crits on his last attempt.

However, this one's not force damage.

This is him attempting to
Grapple you with his fist

and instead just striking
a blow with his off-hand.

- Silvery Barbs.

[Brennan gasps]

- Oh great!
- Yes!

That's great!
- Good call!

- Okay, you turn a crit into simply a hit.

He deals 20 halved to


due to your Rage.

- I go down.

- Okay.
- f*ck!

[Brennan imitates impact]

- Gorgug hits the deck.

You see Porter smashes the
maul into Gorgug's head.

Gorgug goes unconscious

and he picks up with an object interaction

your prone body in his hand.

He turns to look at you, Adaine,

restrained, turning to
stone in midair, and says,

"What do you want me
to do with your friend?

Bite his head off?

Swallow it like a giant of old?"

- Why on earth would I
want that, you freak?

You don't even know me.

What's my name?

[players laugh]

- Baelwyn.

[Murph laughs]

- That's two levels of wrong!

[players laugh]

- No? All right.

That is his turn,

and I think he's going to move from there

to get on the same platform as

Fig and Fabian.

- [Emily] Why?
- Right next to both of you.

Holding Gorgug.

That is Porter.

Kipperlilly is gonna
take a shot at Adaine.

[die rolling]

[intense music continues]

- Rude!

- She hits and deals



and then she's going to make
a Stealth check to vanish.

[wind whooshes]
Disappears.

Going through this big wall of bad guys

that all go on the same initiative.

Mary Ann is still Slowed.

She has a speed of 30

that now is halved 15

and it's difficult terrain.

[players laugh]

You see that she moves one step over

and pulls on Jace's shirt going, "Jace,

I don't feel good.

[players laugh]

Help."

And that, I think, is her whole turn.

I think it's-
- Can I do an Insight check?

Does Jace ignore her?

- No, Jace, now that she's tugging on him,

Jace is gonna have to
do something about it.

[players laugh]

- He's gonna have to
do something about it.

- Jace.
[players laugh]

Jace.

[Brennan laughs]

- Jace, can we go?

- Jace.
- Jace.

[players laugh]
- Jace, can you call my mom?

[Ally laughs]

Can she pick me up?

Okay.
- Can you turn the AC down?

[players laugh]

- Buddy is going to move over

to try,

he's gonna try to Dispel
Magic on Ruben again.

[tense music]

As he does so,

to do this, he will need the spell...

Oh, Slowness is 3rd level.

So it'll automatically come off.

- Mm-hmm.

- He removes the Slowness
[slurps] from Ruben

- [Siobhan] Such is life.

- Adaine, that is you.

I will remind you that
Mazey goes right after you.

- Okay, so what does Restrained mean?

Can I-
- Restrained,

your speed is zero,

and at the end of your turn

you will have to start making saves

to either beat the Flesh to Stone

or to succumb to it and turn to stone.

- So I have a crunchy question about that

because I'm flying.
- Mm-hmm.

Yes.

- Which means I don't actually
have to move my body to move.

- For our purposes,

Flesh to Stone is fixing you in location.

- Great. Gorgeous.

I had to check.

- Had to check.

Can't knock the hustle.

- I will...

Yeah. God, and everybody's
so far away from me.

- Mazey has Dominate
Person on her from Ruben.

This Jace has not used his reaction yet.

Buddy is Concentrating on something.

You don't know what.

All of these ones have used
their reactions already.

Mary Ann is still Slowed.

These two are dead.

Porter is slightly injured,

but holding an unconscious
Gorgug in his hand

with Fig and Fabian on either side of him.

- I am going to Dispel Magic on Mazey.

- [Brennan] Okay.

- 4th level.

- Okay.

Jace is gonna come at you
with the Counterspell,

but he's gonna have to roll.

He needs a nine or higher.

We'll roll Box of Doom.

- Mm.

- I'll 4th level Counterspell
his Counterspell.

[intense music continues]

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- That's button up.
- Are there

any more Jaces left?
- All those Jaces

used their reaction?

- Oh, they all used their reaction.

- And they're also too far away from me.

- Yeah, put that down.

- Put that a little box down.
- Yeah!

- You know they just
played a dramatic sting.

- Put my partner down!

- Incredible!

So go ahead and gimme
your Dispel Magic roll.

You're trying to beat a 5th level spell.

You're gonna roll-

- 10 plus the spell's level.

- Yes, you need a DC 15

and you're rolling-

- Using my spellcasting ability,

so I need to get a 10.

- You need to get a 10.
[die rolling]

- I got a 16.
- Yes!

- Hell yes!

[imitates expl*si*n]

The spell leaves Mazey.

Any bonus actions from Adaine?

Oh, at the end of the
turn you need to roll

for Flesh to Stone again.

- Yeah, I'll just roll
for Flesh to Stone again.

And it's a Constitution saving throw?

- It's a Constitution saving throw.

- Great.
[dice rolling]

- Great.

- [exhales] That's a crit.

- 20!
- [Brennan] Unbelievable!

- [Siobhan] I've rolled for so long.

- Unbelievable! You're still restrained

but you make your first save.

Three saves and the spell is over.

- You have Fly on you still, just-

- Do I still have Fly on me?

- Yeah, 'cause you went down but I-

- Yeah. Yeah.

She went down, but you're totally okay.

At the end of your turn,

Porter's gonna take a swing at Fabian.

- Don't!

- Fabian, what's your armor class?

- I mean, it's gone down since,

so I'm back down to a normal 19.

- For the first time in
this combat, Porter misses.

- Oh!
- You come back up

and he [roars] bam! And
you move out of the way.

- Stupid idiot!

[Brennan roars]

Have we ever had a conversation?

[players laugh]
- Oh man, he's so pissed.

He's unbelievably pissed.

You see Mazey is going to

multiattack Porter.

[intense music]
- Cool!

- Crits.

- Yas, Mazey.
- Yas, Mazey!

- Yas, Mazey.
- It's all the Twister.

- It's all the Twister.
[Ally laughs]

[intense music continues]

And she deals 13, 26, 30
points of damage to Porter.

- Oh!
- Yes!

- And she spins, she's on one hand,

just spinning kicks.

[imitates multiple impacts]

Deals 30 points of damage to Porter.

Bonus action.
[foot thumps]

Heals Gorgug for eight
with a Healing Word.

- Woo!
- Nice!

- Gorgug comes back at eight

and that's gonna be our Jaces.

- So you're at eight now?

- I'm at eight.

[dice rolling]

- [Lou] Do you mind if I [indistinct]

- Adaine, this Jace here hits
you with a Lightning Bolt.

Go ahead and roll a Dex
save with disadvantage.

[dramatic music]

- I believe.

- I believe.

[dice rolling]

[Siobhan scoffs]

- Okay.
- Okay. Okay,

- We'll take it!

- That's a dirty 20.

- Wow!



So 25 halved to 12 lightning damage-

- Okay.
- As he hits you

with a Lightning Bolt
across the b*ttlefield.

The rest of these guys,
what are they gonna do?

'Cause you're all up in the mix.

- Why are you obsessed with me, you freak?

Why are all these teachers hitting me?

That's so messed up!

- I think they're evil.

- But why are they hitting me?

- I think they're pretty evil.

- Messed up!

- This one is going to cast Dispel Magic

on the Slow on Mary Ann

and get Mary Ann back in the mix.

Could you pass me your
Bigby's Hands over there?

[Emily chuckles]
- Why?

- 'Cause they're gonna
make some hands show up.

- Those hands are really bad.

We've gotta get rid of these Jaces.

- I know.

- I feel like if we k*ll the main one,

the other one's might die.
- I'm literally

crossing my fingers that I can-

- Yeah, the Jace Prime
- Get a turn

to try and Fireball them.

- Jace Prime is the one
with Mary Ann, right?

- [Lou] Yes, the Harry Potter looking one,

Patronus casting one.
- Yes.

Yes.

- Hagrid's big egg.

- Hagrid's big egg.

- The one who's about to
summon Hagrid's big egg.

- Do you have any Portent roles left?

- No, I used them all
up in the last fight.

- Fabian.
- [Lou] Dragon.

- [Siobhan] I know.
- What?

- You get, that's 16.

- No!

- 23 points of force damage to Fabian.

- Ugh!

- Are you still up?

- From who? Yes.

- One of the Jaces creates
a fist right next to you,

of arcane force, that strikes you.

The other one Grapples
Mazey with the bag of votes.

- [Lou] No!

- Okay, that's all of the Jaces' turns.

All of their reactions reset.

Gorgug, you're in Porter's fist,

but it's your turn.

- So I lose my turn 'cause I lost Haste.

- At the end of your turn,

he is going to try to
crush you with his hand.

- No!
- Is that an attack?

- It is an attack.

- I will take my reaction to make him...

Hmm.

It doesn't work like this does it?

I'm trying to make him have
disadvantage on the attack roll.

- [Brennan] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Okay.
- Is this

with Hologram Displacement?
- Yeah.

- Cool.

So you can do Hologram
Displacement as your reaction.

Because your armor class
is a little bit low,

I think he can only miss
you on a one or a two.

- Okay.
- But he has disadvantage,

and if you do you get to
teleport out of his hand.

- Yeah, I guess it's worth trying, right?

- Yeah.

If he rolls a nat one or a two.

[dice rolling]
[tense music]

He still hits.

Gorgug, you go down again to zero.

- Okay.

[lips vibrate]

- Porter howls.

We see the gymnasium comes apart even more

as lightning ripples
through this rage dimension.

We're gonna move stuff some more.

Yeah, go ahead and twist
them up a little bit.

You see the Hangman begin to
slide off towards the lava.

- Hangman!

- Rats are in the lava.

[Siobhan groans]

- Their livelihood!

- [Emily] Their livelihood!

- Did they eat Ice Feast?

They were out there in the tent.

- That's true!
- They all had

life insurance policies on themselves.

[Siobhan laughs]

- So some of the distances and ranges

between people have changed here.

You see the gym change even
more [imitates expl*si*n]

as the dimension behind it begins to show

and holding Mazey,

looking at the bag in
her hand, Porter howling.

In this moment, he reaches
out and, as Legendary Action,

calls for everybody with a Rage token

to join his side,

which none of you have.

- Thank god!
- Oh!

- Thank god!
- Woof!

- And-
- We knew they were bad.

- [Brennan] We knew! We knew!
- Would it have been a roll?

- I didn't know-
- [Brennan] It would've been a roll.

- ...they were that bad.

[Siobhan laughs]

- It's an important roll.

- As he calls out, he says,

"Why the f*ck would you defend this place

that runs you ragged,

sends you out, lost your summer

chasing a Night Yorb,

doesn't give a f*ck about you?"

- Don't pretend like you have principles.

- Yeah.
- You just have f*cking pride.

- And we brought the Night Yorb.

It was our fault and we fixed it.

Technically, it was Riz's fault,

but I'll take it for the group.

[Murph chuckles]
[players laugh]

- I'm in the lava.

- Don't come after Riz!
[players laugh]

- I sealed the Night Yorb.

[players laugh]

- Yeah. Yeah, you're looking at the wizard

who f*cking sealed the Night Yorb.

- No one wants to engage

with the temptation of my philosophy?

- You're juicing and we can all see it,

and it's kinda sad.
- Yeah, it's really sad.

You're like a 45-year-old man
who is juiced to the gills.

- And I'm f*cking 17 and maximum-



- Oh, happy birthday!
- [overlapping] Happy birthday!

- Okay, everybody!

Porter,

♪ Happy birthday ♪

- He goes, "Oh, blimey!"

[players laugh]
And you see he...

Riz, it's gonna be your turn.

- I think there is no
way I can get to Porter.

So I'm gonna keep trying to
deal with Kipperlilly, I guess.

- Nice!
- [Emily] Yeah!

- Okay, so last I saw Kipperlilly,

she was hiding up here?

- Yep.
- Okay.

So here's what I'm going to do.

I would like to hop up out of the fire,

and since this is all difficult terrain,

- [Brennan] Mm-hmm.

- I'm gonna have to
use another Misty Step.

- Okay.
- But what I

would like to do is use this piece

of the ground here as cover,

and essentially I want to-

I'm not gonna have a bonus
action, so I can't hide,

but what I would like
to do is set myself up

in such a way that, from
Kipperlilly's vantage point,

she has to use a melee attack.

And then, I would like
to prepare a reaction

to cast a spell.

- Okay.

- So I make it look like
I'm going up to hide.

- Okay.
- But my feet

are a little bit visible

behind this thing at a corner.

I'm like-
- Gotcha.

So you're gonna Misty
Step to get to a place

where she can see you.

- [Murph] She can see me.

- But there's no ability to fire on you

at range.
- Correct.

So total cover from range,

but she knows where I am.

- Copy that.

Okay.

So Misty Step move, bonus action.

You vanish, and where is The Ball?

The Ball's right in there?
- I would like to be here.

- Okay.

Yes.

Okay.

Yes, you're using the natural
landscape and the smoke

provided by all these
rats burning in lava to-

[players laugh]

- Their livelihood!

[players laugh]

- [Emily] Their holes!

- Their holes!

- [Siobhan] Their beautiful holes!

- These are different rats.
- Lot of smoke. Lot of smoke.

- You jump down there

and basically, from where
she's been firing from,

she has to get down into melee with you-

- Correct.
- ...in order...

And then you're preparing
a melee attack, correct?

- I'm preparing a spell.

- Preparing a spell!

Copy that!

Okay.

You jump down there and prepare.

You hack into a position

where one of the twisting chunks of floor

is potentially going to
twist and crush your chest

into the ground to get into this position,

hoping that your timing is just right

for Kipperlilly to show up.

That is your turn.

Readied action.
- Okay.

- Figueroth Faeth, that is your turn.

- Okay, does it look like everyone here,

does it look like...

So we're kind of embracing the fire.

- [Brennan] Mm-hmm.

- Does it look like they're just worried

about the difficult terrain,

or are some of them going like, "Ow!"

from the flames?

- You don't see any of them
looking particularly chuffed

about the massive lava underneath them.

- Okay, then I think with a 20 foot-

I think with a Fireball,
I can get everyone.

- Okay.
- One, two, three,

four, five.
- Oh yeah.

- [Ally] Get that Concentration out!

[tense music]

- [Brennan] That is everybody there.

- Yeah!
- That is correct.

- Nice.

- [Emily] And the range of
Fireball is a 150, I think.

- [Brennan] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- If I took a bonus action Dash-

- [Brennan] Mm-hmm.

- ...could I dive into the
lava out of range of these?

- You could.

If you leave more than


he'll get an attack of opportunity on you.

[tense music continues]

- I think I have to take it.

I think I have to try.

That's the only chance.
- [Murph] What's your HP at?

- [Emily] 36.

- Okay.

[tense music continues]
- I think I have to try.

- Okay.
- You've got to try.

- They all have their Counterspells back?

'Cause it's like a [inaudible]
- Yeah.

So I'm trying to get out of range of them.

I think I grease up the
wheels of the skateboard.

- Why are you putting butter on the wheel?

- Because you butter the
ramp, you butter the wheels.

- Out of the distance you
hear Ragh's voice say,

"Butter it up!"

Buttery skateboard ready to rock.

We are gonna roll. I'm
gonna roll Box of Doom

just for the drama.

- These your saving throws for the fire?

- No, no.

This is not saving throws

because- Fig will be
outta Counterspell range

and this Fireball is gonna
hit a huge cluster of enemies.

That being said, Porter's gonna
get an attack of opportunity

and he might, if he rolls well,

be able to knock Fig out

before she can cast the spell.

[tense music continues]

[die rolling]

That's a 19 on the die.

- [Lou] Okay.

- I don't even think-

- He's got like a 30 to attack.

- ...either Shield, Cutting Words.

None of it will do anything.

- So we're just gonna roll damage

and see what he comes up with.

- I used my reaction.

- Is this his attack
that does normal damage

or his force damage attack?

- This is his force damage attack.

How many hit points is Fig at right now?

- 36.

- [Brennan] 36. Okay.

[dice rattling]

- Hang in there, Fig!

[tense music continues]

[dice rolling]

- Sounds like d4s.

[dice rolling]

- Yeah, it's just a bunch of d4s.

- Calling it, it's 6d4.

That's gonna be four or five damage.

[players chuckle]

- Seven, eight, nine damage.

- 31 points of damage to Figueroth Faeth.

[Emily groans]

Thank god!
[Brennan laughs]

- 31 points of damage.

You, boom, feel the
force damage of the mace.

Gah!

You feel the maul hit your back

and the blood.

It's so much pure force

that you can feel your blood carbonize

and turn into rubies in your body

as you [imitates splash] hit the lava.

- You don't know her like I do.

[Brennan exhale angrily]

The goddess that you're trying to k*ll.

- As you hit the lava [imitates splash]

it covers your face,
feeling like a warm bath.

And you see a face of a
beautiful woman in radiant light,

her body reconstituting.

She looks at you.

Am I at long last being
recalled to the world I knew?

- Yeah, we need you again.

[tense music]

- There are those calling me

who claim me.

I cannot yet tell

what purpose I am called to serve.

- Don't listen to them.

You claim yourself.

I'm the Archdevil of Rebellion.

We don't like authority figures.

You choose your purpose.

- She smiles [exhales]

and blows flame from pursed lips

that, in the lava,
wraps around your hands.

The light of the sun, summer mornings,

after a summer spent in eternal night

come flooding into your hands.

What would you like to do?

- I would like to Fireball these guys.

I'm doing a 6th level Fireball.

- Hoo!

- Out of the range of Counterspell,

deep in the lava.
[dice rattling]

Here we go!

Go ahead and roll damage.

[dice rolling]

- Okay.

- Nice!

- Oh wow! Look at that!

- Pretty good.
- Pretty good.

[tense music continues]

- 45 damage!

- Ooh, doctor!

- [Emily] And it ignites things.

- [Ally] Oh!

- [Brennan] And it ignite?

- [Emily] It ignites
everything around them.

- [Brennan] Incredible!

- [Lou] Fires can start.

- [Brennan] Fires can start.
- [Emily] Fires can start.

- Okay.

Couple things.



We're gonna roll. Mary
Ann's gonna roll a Dex save.

That's a nat one.

She takes 45 fire.
- Oh!

- You see Mary Ann looks,
it catches things on fire.

Her strawberry bursts
into flame and she goes,

"f*ck no!"
[players laugh]

- Got that dog in her!

- Oh my god! She's got that dog in her!

- [Brennan] Mary Ann looks into flame

and is like, "f*ck no!"

- [Emily] That dog is a Squishmallow.

- That dog is a Squishmallow!

Buddy's gotta roll Dex.

Buddy does not have great Dex.

[intense music]

That is a failure.

He takes a full 45 Fire.

That is a 22 DC Concentration check,

which means he needs a


- Come on!

[intense music continues]

- He rolls a six!

We will get into what that is

in just a f*cking moment, g*ng.

- [Ally] That's great! That's great!
- Hold on one second.

Huge! Absolutely huge fireball!

Still up, Mary Ann and him.

Two Jaces.

Jace Prime and this Jace over here,

despite their Mirror Images,

this is just saving throws.

They can't do sh*t about it.

[intense music continues]

This is gonna be...

That is a failure from Jace Prime.

He takes 45 points of Fire damage.

[intense music continues]

Loses the f*cking hand.

[Siobhan groans]
- Oh!

- Bam! Mazey is back!

And then the other one,

that is a failure as well.

That's two.

That was the Lightning Bolt one.

Takes 45.

Both of those Jaces now bloodied-

- Wow!

- Very significantly.

Ruben needs to roll his saving throw.

Your DC is 18.

He needs a 13 or higher on the die.

[tense music]

[die rolling]

[tense music continues]

Natural one.

[Zac sighs]

Describe for me how Ruben
Hopclap leaves this world.

[Murph laughs]

- He slowly rolls off,

his stupid emo hair gets
caught in some of it.

[Siobhan laughs]

He dangles over the lava pit,

his feet getting burned.

[Murph laughs]

The fear of his own demise
absolutely excruciating.

And as he drops into the lava pit,

he makes eye contact with me,

and I say,

"I was Fig all along.

I was in your f*cking dreams.

I was outside your f*cking window.

I made the 'Complicated Women' podcast."

[players laugh]

- You made a whole podcast?

[players laugh]

That podcast is like three years old!

[Emily laughs]

- I've been waiting for
the moment to do it.

It's been a long con.

My final episode's gonna be about my mom.

[players laugh]

- I don't...

I barely understand!

And he falls-
- Hey, Ruben.

There's a place for you in Hell.

- What?

[imitates woosh of flame]

You see Ruben falling [wails]

Bam!

And lands in the middle
of a huge polka band

as Rip goes, "Hell yeah!"

- I want him to have to just spend

the rest of his life looping cords.

[players laugh]

- Rip goes, "All right, man.

Put the stingers in the bin.

Get 'em in the bed."

Ruben goes, "No!

No! No!

No!"

Just looping very calmly.

[shrieking] No!

No!

I'm being mobbed for autographs!

I'm being mobbed!

[players laugh]

You have sucked Ruben straight to Hell.

Both Jaces, Mary Ann, Buddy,

every single one of
them failed their saves,

five in a row.

And as Buddy loses Concentration,

appearing at the back of
the gym is a ballot box

that comes out of the Banishment spell.

- Oh!
- Oh!

- Oh!

- And that's all for this episode

of "Dimension 20: Fantasy
High Junior Year."

We'll see you next week
for the thrilling finale.

- Blimey!
- Wow!

[players laugh]
- Blimey!

- f*cking blimey!

[intense rock music]

[wind whooshes]

- Hi, Jace

- God!

Wizards, you think you're so
much better than everybody

just because you understand the principles

that are at work.

- [Siobhan] You could
take a level of wizard.

- I can't. I really can't.

I tried.

- Mazey, fight it! [laughs]

- I don't wanna fight it!

I wanna fight you!

- Oh! Oh!

[intense music]

- Is that-

- I don't hate it.

[players laugh]

[Brennan screams]

[intense music continues]

- You burned my strawberry.

- I what?

[Brennan roars]

- She's got that dog in her.

[players laugh]

- You think you can stop me?

Stop me only for a time!

I will rend the world asunder!

And even if she doesn't believe me,

I will let the world burn,

instead of losing.

Ankarna!

I am ready to revere you!

- Girlie, he's lying to you.

- Girl!

- He sounds so convincing!

[Emily laughs]

You don't know him like I know him.

[intense music continues]

- My damage rolls this season
are giving me a heart attack!

- What are we doing?

- It's not okay.
- It's purposeful.

What?

- Oh!
- No!

- I don't need this anymore.
- Dab? [players laugh]

- [Brennan] It's no fair!

What's the f*cking point?!

[players laugh]
[dramatic music]

- You guys, what's for dinner?

- Well, dang!

- Well, dang!

- [as Arthur Aguefort] Well, dang!

Another great year at the
Aguefort Adventuring Academy.

[players laugh]
- No, no, no, no, no.

- You don't get to take credit for this!
