Hello, one and all, and welcome back
to another thrilling episode
of "Dimension 20: Neverafter."
I'm your humble dungeon
master Brennan Lee Mulligan.
With me as always are our Intrepid Heroes.
Say hi, Intrepid Heroes.
- [Intrepid Heroes] Hi, Intrepid Heroes.
- Last we left off, the
heroes of the Neverafter,
those fairy tales of
these times of shadow,
more monstrous than ever
before, ventured into the mines
beneath the village of Tuffeton
here in a new 'once upon a time'.
Having the veil peeled back to
all of the various instances
Having the veil peeled back to
all of the various instances
of these haunted tales,
our heroes venture forth
with the knowledge and
some of the artifacts
gained from their previous
lives into a more twisted,
haunted vision of these
lands of myth and fairy tale.
Descending into the shadows
to face an arachnid entity
Descending into the shadows
to face an arachnid entity
of unspecified characteristics
based on the communication
between another band of
adventurers that seek
to be gathering stories, contacted
through Mother Goose's book,
the fabled Scheherazade
reaching out with the knowledge
that certain instances
of magic across realms had been seen.
Indeed, a tapestry holding some
image of the Princess Elody
had been spied in these other stories.
Indeed, it seems that
gateways and portals abound.
Arcane princesses move between the realms
as fairies conspire to enact
their vision of things to come
and perhaps other forces still,
wolves and stepmothers
and perhaps even geese.
- [gasps] One of them was good.
[cast laughing]
- [Brennan] One of them was good.
- One of them was so soft and so good.
- Behind you are two geese.
One is good and one's evil.
- Yeah.
- [laughs] Move upon the
shape of stories themselves.
- [laughs] Move upon the
shape of stories themselves.
But we concern ourselves at this moment
not with matters cosmic or grand in scale.
No, something much more tangible
awaits you in this place.
No, something much more tangible
awaits you in this place.
Traversing web deep in the darkness.
[cast wailing creepily]
- [Siobhan] I don't like it here, guys.
- [Ally] Freaky.
- [Brennan] But thankfully-
- [Ally] Oh.
- Due to the horrors you have endured
and the lives you have shed,
passed through, and reemerged from,
spiders are not the only horrifying thing
crawling in this dark cave.
And in fact, you have the drop
on these crawling arachnids.
And in fact, you have the drop
on these crawling arachnids.
We go right into initiative,
and I'll also remind everyone here
about the surprised condition.
When creatures are surprised,
these creatures cannot move
or take an action on the
first turn of combat.
So this is actually going
to be a surprise round.
- Cool.
- We are going to begin
at the top of the initiative
order with Rosamund du Prix.
- [Siobhan] Okay, I'm looking around
and looking at utter darkness.
- [Brennan] Yeah, I will say that
darkvision is only this side of the table.
Everyone over here, you are taking
the most careful steps possible
kind of using the fluttering noise
of Pinocchi-Crow or I guess-
- Spinocchio.
- Spinocchio, the spider familiar
that is sort of giving you
the right bands to step on.
And every time you step forward,
you are taking a step into utter darkness
hoping that you touch the right strand
but honestly touch any strand at all
because the other option
is to fall into darkness.
- Great, so I'm gonna ask my friends
in front of me who can see things,
how far in front of you are these spiders?
- I would say about 40 feet,
and there's not a big one yet.
- Fantastic, okay well...
- [Zac] Pretty big to me.
[Brennan laughing]
- Okay...
- [Emily] I'm still waiting
on that big delivery.
- I, hm, well, I don't want to see 'em
but I also gotta see 'em.
So I'm gonna pull out my spindle
and use whatever fairy
magic is in the spindle
and cast Faerie Fire in this 40 feet
in front of the barrier
so it's a 20-foot cube.
I think I can get all
three of these spiders,
but I don't know if I would
be able to since it's dark.
- [Brennan] So this is
a 20-foot cube here.
- [Siobhan] Okay, great. So
let's just get those two.
And then if they fail their dex save,
any attack roll against an
affected creature or object
has advantage if the attacker can see it.
- So we're gonna roll these saves
for these two spiders here.
The DC for you is, I believe, a 14.
- It's a 14, yeah.
- Okay.
- [Lou] Really accents the...
- That one is [mimics expl*si*n] hit
by this beautiful,
scintillating Faerie Fire
and the objects, meaning the web,
so the web here glows with light.
So these spiders are
still in total darkness,
but this one is hit by
the spell and outlined.
And this one is still totally visible
because it's within the range
of the illuminated strands.
- Great, actually, I don't
even think I'm even gonna move
because I'm in the darkness
and I can't see anything.
- Yeah, and you're within range.
- And I am within range of everybody so-
- I will say, too, that
movement in this place
is always a risky proposition.
- [Siobhan] Right.
- Because of the nature of the strands.
And you happen to have
your boots squarely on,
like you have just enough of
your boot on a sticky strand
on either side to kind of like,
be like, okay, I'm standing.
- I'm not gonna move unless I have to.
- Cool, that is Rosamund's turn.
- [Lou] Great turn.
- [Ally] Great turn.
- Great turn. Pib, that is you.
- Is there enough room on my
friend who is also a spider
for a little, tiny kitty
cat to get up there as well?
- Sure, I think so.
- Okay, so I'm gonna crawl
over and like, excuse me.
- [Siobhan] Just a stack of animals.
- Gerard, scoot over.
- [Murph] Ah, all right.
[Zac meowing]
- [Emily] Everybody stand
on the girl child with broken bones.
- [meows] Pushing like when a cat
tries to sit in a chair with you.
[cast laughing]
- [Ally] Yeah.
- [Murph] Excuse you.
- [Emily] I think he's
jealous of your laptop.
- [Ally] Yeah. [laughs]
- And so I will make my way over to there.
And it's 60 feet on my daggers?
Is that 60 feet from there?
- So 60 feet is the longest possible
range. - [Zac] Is the long range
- 20 feet, which means
you get disadvantage.
- [Zac] Oh, okay.
- Oh yes, that would cancel out.
- Interesting.
- You want to just hold
a reaction until we move?
- Until you're within 20 feet of an enemy?
- [Zac] Yeah.
- Yeah, I think totally.
That's absolutely fine.
So you're gonna hop up on
Ylfa and hold an action.
- [Zac] Yeah.
- [Brennan] Cool.
- But I will hop up
there and I'll give Tim
a bonus action help right there.
I'm just gonna waste it otherwise.
- Incredible, thank you.
- 'Cause of my Master of
Tactics I can give you help.
- You jump up on Ylfa, and
you're readying an action
that when you're within
you're going to attack.
Ylfa, that's you.
- Okay, so Gerard, are we trying to,
since we don't have advantage,
should we just try and make
a beeline for this guy?
Or should we make a beeline for this guy?
- [Murph] Why don't we make a
beeline for the one in front.
- Okay, so I'm guessing I
have 40 feet of movement.
Does that get me here?
- [Brennan] Oh easy, no sweat.
- [Ally] Close it.
- [Emily] And that's close enough
for you to throw your daggers?
- Yeah, I think so.
- Okay.
- Actually, it's close enough
for you to throw your dagger
at the one that's illuminated
back here too if you want. -
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
So I guess I'm just gonna
use my 40 feet of movement,
and I'm just gonna f*cking
bite another spider.
[Brennan laughs]
- [Ally] Ooh.
- [Lou] Spider on spider action.
- [Emily] And that's
gonna be a eight to hit.
- An eight is not going
to hit, I'm afraid.
- Bardic? Would that pop you to a hit?
- [Emily] Oh wait, I
know my own armor class.
- [Murph] It might be different stats.
- [Emily] Yeah, I don't
think it would bring me.
- You rush up to this monstrous arachnid
that turns to you and goes,
[hisses] Sister, what gives?
[Ally laughing]
- Brother!
[cast laughing]
It's all a ruse.
The people on my back,
I've brought them here as food for Mother.
- Oh, are you biting
me to let me know that?
- I purposefully missed!
- Oh, sick.
[cast laughing]
You see, you... [laughs]
These guys are very surprised, right?
This is my rendering of
the surprise condition.
- Oh my God, it's so cute.
- Can I throw my dagger at the other one?
- [Brennan] Hell yeah.
Go ahead and give me an
attack roll with advantage.
- Natural 20.
[Nat 20 chime]
[cast cheering]
- [Brennan] Oh sh*t!
- [Siobhan] Yes!
- Okay,
so introducing the death blow mechanic.
Every single attack in
these realms of horror
has the potential to instantly
[snaps fingers] end a life.
For calculating the
DC, it's the same rules
as concentration checks for spells.
So it's 10 or half damage,
whichever is the higher number.
So you're gonna go ahead,
actually, and roll damage first.
- So I got sneak attack on this.
- [Brennan] Yes, you have
sneak attack on this.
- So I do 4d6 plus 2d4?
- Yeah, 4d6 plus 2d4.
- Come on. Hm, not great.
- I'm seeing a lot of twos and ones.
- [Zac] So that is two, four, six, seven-
- Hey, first one of the
day. First one of the day.
First crit of the day.
- Yeah, first crit of the day of many.
- [Brennan] First crit of the day, baby.
- Oh, I'm sorry. I forgot to rage.
Can I say that I also bonus action raged?
- [Brennan] Bonus action rage.
- It doesn't affect the-
- [Brennan] Yes.
- f*cking miss.
[cast laughing]
- You looked so mad though, it was like...
- 13 plus four.
- 17 points of damage, okay.
So this creature actually has
to make two saving throws now
'cause it also has to
take the injury mechanic.
It's immediately taken more
than half its hit points
just on this attack.
- Okay, good to know.
- So, you want me to do death
blow first or injury first?
- Let's do death blow first.
- [Brennan] Death blow.
- [Ally] Death blow.
- Yeah, you know what?
'Cause if that goes bad...
- Go big or go home.
- So the DC's just gonna be 10.
On a four or lower, this
thing dies instantly.
- Okay.
- Okay, it could happen.
- Okay, it does not instantly die.
Dagger [grunts] thuds into it,
but it does take a level
of exhaustion as you
[mimics wind rushing] and
it goes [gurgles painfully]
as this dagger thuds deep into its, like,
it's that narrow connection
between its head and thorax.
- Yeah. [laughs]
- Sick as hell.
That is now going to be Mother Goose.
- What do we have to roll
to be able to move safely?
- [Brennan] It is an acrobatics check
to be able to move safely.
- Okay.
- Mother Goose, I could shuttle back
and get you if you ever need.
- [Zac] You have that help action.
- [Ally] Yeah, I was thinking
I could have advantage.
I would love to move.
- [Emily] Oh.
- [Brennan] Hell yeah.
- [Ally] I bonus action.
I'm gonna cast Expeditious
Retreat on myself.
- [Brennan] Sick, awesome.
- [Murph] That's smart.
- [Emily] Ooh, yeah.
- Okay, so this is to move.
Acrobatics, what do I have to hit?
- [Brennan] The DC here is 10.
- Okay.
Yes! Okay, cool, 16.
- Pib, as you give the help action,
you see this sort of
older man trying to like-
- Super ripped.
- Super ripped, trying to move
across the web. - Crazy back muscles.
- Pib, what does your
help action look like
as you take off? - [Emily] I cannot
keep up with this pushup economy
- It's more like a, like,
this path looks pretty good.
Eyes on me, right here.
- Yeah.
- Look at this.
[Ally laughs nervously]
Little step here, little step here.
- It still feels sticky
even on the non-sticky ones.
- [Murph] The cat just
kind of hitting the web.
- Yeah, yeah. [laughs]
- When a cat wants to like,
it wants you to feed them
and they're like, kinda like-
- Leading you.
- This way, this way.
I think Puss in Boots, you're back
in this new scrappier incarnation.
You're literally helping
a mortal man like,
[claps] this way, this way.
I'm helping you achieve
your destiny. Come with me.
You make it easy, and as you're doing so,
your book flies open.
The first time fully
understanding your book,
and what you learned from Scheherazade,
that she has the ability
to pull stories back out of the book.
You open and see the rhyme of your son,
Jack Be Nimble, Jack Be Quick.
And your son in golden
light, sort of rendered
with like glowing golden
ink smiles at you,
leaps out from the page and as you step
he has a moment of existing
in the same space as your body
as golden motes of light surround you.
And you feel an unbelievable
spryness and quickness
as a voice says, "You got it, Dad."
- Jack, okay, that was pretty heavy
to see my beautiful Jack.
[Brennan laughs]
Yeah, and then I move my 30 feet.
What does that look like
on this nightmarish web?
- Making the acrobatics
check kind of removes
the difficult terrain feature,
so you can go a full 30.
- [Ally] Okay, cool.
- And you have Expeditious
Retreat, right? So that's-
- I do. I think it was
a bonus action to cast.
And then going forward as
a bonus action I can dash.
- But I think as part of
the action of casting it
you do get to take the movement
with Expeditious Retreat.
- Amazing, then I'll dash.
Yeah, I'll dash forward.
- So as a bonus action
you're going to move 30 feet.
What direction do you want to move in?
- [Ally] Towards my friends.
- [Brennan] Your allies.
- [Ally] With the spider, I guess.
- [Brennan] Hell yeah. So like here?
- Yeah, yeah, that's great.
And the dash would mean I
could move another 30, right?
- [Emily] Yeah.
- Yeah, absolutely.
- [Ally] If I wanted to.
- Yeah.
- I'll do that, I'll move another 30 feet
straight over there.
- [Brennan] Here?
- [Ally] Yeah, if possible.
- [Brennan] Great. Hell yeah.
- And then I'll give the
bonus action to Gerard.
- All of you see that
Mother Goose tears off.
- Oh man.
- He's so athletic.
- [Brennan] So nimble, so-
- I was telling you guys about-
- Be careful-
- I just saw my son.
[cast laughing]
- [Brennan] And give the
help action to Gerard,
which is very fitting because Gerard,
it is gonna be your turn.
- [Siobhan] Nice.
- All right, thank you, Timothy.
- You're welcome.
- I pull out my little book of forms
and gonna kinda go into the animal brain
so that I'm not shaking.
I'm only freaking out in my mind.
All right, going to use
this. Let's go for...
- Why does everybody have a book?
[cast laughing]
- The swallow-
- I don't have a book.
- Okay.
- The swallow flies southward.
And I'm going to make an attack
stabbing down into this one right here.
Ooh, ooh, bad stuff,
guys. Bad stuff, everyone.
- Yeah, put down the book, Gerard!
- Well, I need it. That's a 10.
- A 10 does not hit on that attack.
- Okay, I got a different-
- So far me and Murph
have rolled one, three,
and a five this combat.
- [Ally] Incredible.
- Cool stuff, cool stuff.
I think that literally...
Oh God, should I action
surge and try again?
I'm just gonna miss.
- No, you got it, you got it.
- You might hit it.
- All right, I'll try again.
Why was I doing the
swallow flies southward?
I should be doing snake in the bouquet.
[cast laughing]
- [Emily] Ooh.
- And I stab down.
- This is it.
Now this is the money shot.
- Come on.
- Okay, that one's a 19 to hit.
- 19 hits. Go ahead and roll damage.
- [Murph] Okay, and-
- Thank f*cking God.
- Thank God.
- I'm going to do a
Distracting Strike as well
to give advantage to Ylfa.
- [Brennan] Hell yeah.
- [Murph] On the next attack.
- Cool!
- Okay, so 2d8s...
[dramatic string music]
Oh yeah.
- Ooh.
- 16 damage.
- Nice.
- [Brennan] 16 damage. Hell yes.
It's going to make a save
here which it also fails
so both of the spiders
in that illumination
are staggered and exhausted
from those injuries.
- [Emily] Yeah.
- Good Lord, it worked.
[cast laughing]
- Now the spiders are going to act.
- Well, I haven't gone yet.
- They come out of the
surprised condition.
And that's their whole turn.
Good job on surprising everybody.
- I thought that, oh, I see, I see.
- Yeah, they just do nothing.
- They just do nothing,
but they are no longer surprised.
The spiders have begun, as the two here
are badly stabbed and
hurt you hear one say,
Brothers, what gives?
And you see someone says,
Sister, I do think we're in trouble.
I think we gotta hustle.
- I brought them here to Mother!
- I'm not sure how much of a spider
this wolf girl question mark is.
- sh*t, did I forget to
hide my tail and ears?
- Yeah, this is just a wolf
with f*cked up legs who's a girl.
- Hey, be careful who you're talking to.
I'm a really nice pre-teen.
[cast laughing]
- That's right.
- Pinocchio, as you see the spiders
kind of like, move into battle mode,
that's all they're able
to do on this turn.
That is going to be you.
- Thank God.
I'm gonna look over at Rosamund.
Rosamund, we're just
gonna stay here, right?
- [Siobhan] Yeah.
- Like, we're not like,
trying to move or anything.
- [Siobhan] Oh, I'm not going anywhere.
Absolutely not.
- [Lou] Okay, f*ck yeah.
Spinocchio, assume form of Pinocchi-Crow.
[cast laughing]
I'm gonna have him change back,
and I'm gonna cast Faerie Fire on him.
- [Siobhan] Nice.
- And have him fail.
- Oh, sick.
- So we've now got a little lantern.
- Oh my God! [laughs]
- Cute.
- That can fly around.
- I've seen this at REI.
[Brennan and Siobhan laughing]
- I guess I'll have
Spinocchi-Crow fly away from us
into the air and cast it on him in the air
so that we're not illuminated.
And then he has 40 feet of fly.
And I'm gonna have him fly to this area
and be hovering 10 feet above this.
- [Ally] Oh. Great.
- [Siobhan] Perfect.
- [Brennan] Oh, sick.
So you're illuminating
these spiders over here.
- [Lou] Yes.
- Dope as hell.
- I mean, I'm assuming
he knows where the...
I'm gonna say, find the other ones!
And send him in the
direction of those spiders,
have him flying 10 feet above them.
- And what sort of color?
What is the vibe of the
spell that you cast?
- Oh, what are the three
choices? You've got violet.
- [Siobhan] Blue, green, or violet.
- Oh, we'll do blue for Spinocchi-Crow.
- Great, gender reveal crow.
- It's a boy crow, guys.
Pinocchi-Crow is a boy.
- Oh, wow, cool.
- Amazing.
[cast laughing]
So right now Mother Goose,
Rosamund, and Pinocchio
are still shrouded in darkness,
but a bunch of light happens here.
You cast Faerie Fire.
Any other actions from
you that turn, Pinocchio?
- No, that's it.
- I need to roll a saving throw,
and we're gonna roll
this in the Box of Doom.
- What a fun, that's fun.
- For what and for why?
- 'Cause saving what?
- For why?
- [Murph] Can I touch whatever
dice you're about to use?
- [Brennan] You wanna touch this?
- [Lou] Just let him rub his hand.
- Oh no, it's got Murph all over it.
- Yeah!
- You see stink lines on it.
[Emily and Siobhan laughing]
- Hey! [laughs]
- Your DC is 13, correct, Pinocchio?
- My DC is 13 and
Spinocchi-Crow also has my,
on anything he shares my DC.
- 12 or lower and it's a failure.
[tense music]
That's a seven which is a failure.
[cast clapping]
- Which is good for us.
- Okay...
- That's good? Oh, I thought-
- There it is. Hey, let's
clap it up for seven.
Clap it up.
- Clap it up, good seven.
- So Pinocchio, Pinocchi-Crow
[mimics cawing] flies off,
and as your crow sails off and is up high,
you throw this enchantment and you see
[mimics magic whooshing]
your strings appear again
as you're illuminated by magic.
And you've elected for
your familiar to fail,
but you hit an area up high.
[Ally and Lou whimper nervously
as skittering sounds play]
And something else becomes illuminated.
[cast screaming in shock and fear]
- I knew it, I knew it!
I called it, I called it, I called it!
- What the f*ck?
- [Murph] That actually f*cking got me.
- [Ally] No!
- [Siobhan] What the f*ck?
- Oh, it's time for scary fairy tales.
- Oh, it's time for scary fairy tales.
- Oh no.
[Lou claps]
- [Zac] No.
- Oh, that is disgusting.
- I turn to it as I say, mother!
- Can we just get a big
round for the Art Department
and for all the f*cking...
[cast clapping]
- Wow.
- Wow.
- Why'd you have to put
tiny spiders on it? Is not-
- [Ally] Why?
- [Siobhan] The tiny spiders
is what makes it much worse.
- One big spider's not enough?
- [Ally] Oh my God.
- Yeah, the little peach guys.
- [Emily] Are those
spiders, are they babies?
- [Siobhan] They're so pink.
- So Pinocchio, the edge of your spell
catches something up high.
[inhales raspily] Did you
want to come for dinner?
And your magic ripples
outlining something,
and it won't stop rippling outward.
Something truly massive
descends on a silken strand,
Something truly massive
descends on a silken strand,
but you have outlined it in your spell.
- Good job.
- I'm sorry!
I mean, maybe if I hadn't
- It's good, it's good.
- illuminated it, it wouldn't be real.
- It's good. We have
advantage on it, it's good.
- I don't want it!
- [Ally] Oh my God.
- The last bit of the spell illuminates
the very front of the spider,
and you see where its head would be,
the torso of what looks
to be a young girl.
- [Lou] Mm.
[Emily gasps]
- [Brennan] Holding a small
bowl with a spoon in it.
- Oh no.
- [Zac] No!
- Miss Muffet.
- [Brennan] Little Miss Muffet
sits at the center of a
web, not in a tuffet at all.
How you doing, Murph?
You okay?
- [Murph] No, I...
- [Emily] Who did you think it was?
- [Zac] You guessed the wrong thing.
- I was like, ooh, I'm very smart.
'Cause we saw the bear
last time I was like,
It's freaking...
- [Brennan] Goldilocks.
- Goldilocks.
Come on, her, she's got a bowl.
- Wait, has she been taken by the spider
or she is the spider?
- I think what happens
immediately, Mother Goose,
is you look at this, and
in your previous life
you had these kind of like inclinations
or feeling of wrongness, but
you always associated that
with like, yeah, times are bad.
There's like, there's w*r, there's horror,
there's things going
on that are f*cked up.
You guys have all come through
the veil between realities.
You look at this and don't just
have this generalized sense
of wrongness, you see a creature
that has been scrambled between stories.
You see something that is like,
in a monstrous form, corrupted.
In other words, if you were doing
like a paladin's Divine
Sense, you would be like,
this is a monstrosity or an aberration.
This is not a naturally-occurring
fairy tale, right?
- Wow.
- But she goes,
Ah, little babies, little darlings.
There's something that does not breathe
hiding in the dark, and it's rendered me
under the charm of a wicked spell.
Destroy it!
- Pinocchio immediately starts
doing his best impression
of what he thinks breathing is.
Hee, hee, hee!
[cast laughing]
Hee, hee.
- Ylfa holds her breath
to try and be like, it's
me, the spellcaster.
[Ally and Siobhan laughing]
- Hee!
- The spellcaster!
- [Zac] Pretty accurate, pretty accurate.
- Two brilliant actors.
- Yes.
- You guys are gonna get
the school play this year.
- I have minus one charisma, so...
- Unbelievable, g*ng. You see right away.
Who all is within?
Mother Goose very nimbly
got the hell out of there.
I am gonna need a charisma saving throw
from Gerard, Pib, and Ylfa.
- [Murph] That's not good.
- I was like,
what the f*ck is Tim-
- Okay.
- [Ally] Yeah. [laughs]
- 12.
- [Lou] Thank God Tim's
the f*ck over there.
- Oh, I might go for the Bardic on this.
- 17.
- 17 charisma.
- I got a 12.
- [Ally] I say use Bardic.
- I say I'm gonna use Bardic.
- [Ally] I say use Bardic.
- [Murph] Nice.
- Plus five becomes a 17.
- I got an eight.
- [Ally] No!
- All three of you are
targeted by the Bane spell.
You fail your saving throw.
In addition to failing the saving throw,
please take one of these.
- [Siobhan] [groans] Yay.
- [Lou] Hee
- So minus 1d4 from attack
rolls and saving throws.
- Cool.
- [Brennan] As she-
[Brennan rasps]
- Oh, I'm sorry Gerard.
- It's nothing to do with you.
- Accompanying her spell
she also goes, [shouts]
- Accompanying her spell
she also goes, [shouts]
and raises up one of her
monstrous spider legs
and kicks the web.
I'm going to need everybody
to give me a strength saving throw.
- [Ally] Everybody?
- [Brennan] Everybody.
- [Siobhan] Oh boy.
- What if I have
like a web thing, though?
- Oh, sorry.
If you have Web Walking, you're okay.
But everyone, the other five.
- Yeah, two people on my back.
- If we're on top of her?
- Are fine.
- Oh sh*t, that's true.
You are both riding.
- This why I'm a spider.
- [Ally] Her legs are like shocks.
- I'm not strong right
now. I'm just here to-
- So just our unmounted g*ng,
go ahead and give me
strength saving throws.
- That's a five.
- [Murph] Yikes.
- That's a six.
- Flat 10.
- [Murph] God.
- Woof.
- All of you see Muffet
raise a massive spidery leg,
kick the web and all of you drop prone.
Now what I'm gonna need is
a dexterity saving throw
from all three of you to go prone.
- Oh, stop this.
- [Emily] Oh, dear.
- Okay, there I crit.
- [Brennan] Okay, incredible.
- Okay, 11.
- [Siobhan] Can I use my
crit to help Pinocchio?
- Terrifying, I got an unnatural 20.
- Oh, okay, great.
- Wow.
- [Emily] An unnatural 20. [laughs]
- An unnatural.
- It was so close to a one.
- They're not dirty
here. They're unnatural.
- Okay, so here's what happens.
Pinocchio and Rosamund,
you guys, it makes sense,
you're at the very edge
of that kind of ripple
across the web as she, boom, kicks it.
So both of you go prone, which
is bad enough on its own.
You have to use half your
movement to get back up again.
However, as you both
fall back, each of you,
knowing that you were just stationary
and are away from any
creatures menacing you
steady and catch yourselves
on non-sticky strands.
So you go, [gasps] so
you're just sort of prone.
Mother Goose, you fall
back and hit a huge patch
of strong, incredibly adhesive web
so you are prone and restrained.
- [Murph] Yikes.
- I think without even
having to make a roll
to sort of grok it, being in
a position like right here
would be a much worse scenario.
- [Murph] Oh God, you can fall through.
- [Brennan] Right, 'cause
you can fall through the web.
But you're not actually
down in the action.
You can cast a spell.
So you're just incredibly
vulnerable, right?
- Yeah.
- You're like, stuck here
in the web, and after
that more monster stuff.
in the web, and after
that more monster stuff.
- No, come on.
♪ More monster stuff ♪
- f*ck this.
- [Ally] What, they detach?
- [Siobhan and Murph] No!
- [Zac] Ew!
- Rick Perry, the fact
that you're somewhere
eating chicken tandoori right
now is absolutely- - Oh my God.
- [Siobhan] I hope your
curry is f*cking delicious.
- Cooking f*cking five
gallons of chicken tandoori.
- [Siobhan] I hope you're
having a really good time
with your beautiful family.
- [Emily] They might be in
a vulnerable place, though.
- [Murph] You f*cking freak.
- [Lou] Oh, God!
- [Emily] Because they were just born
so maybe you could
convince them you're Mom.
- Oh.
- Hey, Rosamund,
do you hear something?
- I guess.
I don't wanna think about it.
- [Murph] Spiders!
- I just don't. I just
can't think about it, okay?
I just can't think about it, okay?
- Pinocchi-Crow!
- I'm very afraid.
- Pinocchi-Crow maybe
switched into a spider
and is coming back to us.
- [Siobhan] That's probably what it is.
- I don't know, he seemed to be kinda-
- That's probably what it is.
I do see him, but that's
probably what it is.
- And I do also see him, but that's
probably what it is. - Oh, God!
- Wet nude spiders on your 12, your 10,
your 11, your one, your two.
[Emily laughing]
[Ally groans]
- [Murph] Your 12.
- [Siobhan] Oh boy.
- So the little newly-hatched
spiders rush in a wave
towards Pinocchio and Rosamund,
but specifically for Pinocchio.
- Can I please make a deception
roll for my fake breathing?
- Yeah, give me a deception check.
- [fake breathing] Hee, hee, hee!
[Siobhan laughing]
That's a natural one.
[cast laughing]
Hee, hee!
- Follow the wheezing laughter, children.
- It's not laughter! It's breathing!
- There's no world where
it wasn't a nat one.
- [Lou] Yeah.
- [Ally] There's no world.
- It just felt so much
like that in my body.
- Whee!
- Hee!
- However, right up in the mix,
four of them are gonna
go take swings at Ylfa.
- But you're my children
and I'm your mother.
- How do you figure?
- Because I'm a spider and you're spiders.
- Not every spider is our mom.
- You're little spiders. This
is a medium-sized spider.
- I'm your mother.
Come sup of my milk.
- [Zac] Sounds compelling to me.
[Brennan laughing]
- Respect your elders.
[Emily laughing]
- Okay, they're all going
to take some swings.
- [Brennan] I'm gonna need two
constitution saving throws from you.
- Okay.
- [Lou] Come back.
- [Siobhan] Right.
- [Lou] We're gonna do our best to-
- That's gonna be a nine for one
and a 16 for the other
so I know I fail one.
- I'm gonna roll the piercing damage first
'cause that's gonna get halved.
- Right.
- That's four halved to two.
And then seven halved to three,
so five damage of piercing.
And then the poison
damage that comes through
is only six points of poison damage.
- [Emily] All right.
- [Brennan] Are you still
in your spider form?
- I'm still in my spider form.
- Hell yes. [growls creepily]
As the spiders surge forward.
That is going to be Rosamund.
- Okay.
I can't see very much,
but I can see Miss Muffet,
I can't see very much,
but I can see Miss Muffet,
and do I have advantage against her
so I'm gonna be brave and ignore
all of this skittering
that's coming towards me.
And I'm going to sh**t big
Miss Muffet with advantage.
And I'm going to sh**t big
Miss Muffet with advantage.
- I believe sh**ting from prone would be-
- [Siobhan] Oh, then I'll get up.
- Cool, so you spend half
your movement getting up.
Go ahead and give me an acrobatics check
just to see if you can get up.
This is only a DC, we'll call this,
this is gonna be a low DC.
- [Lou] And what's this to do?
- To get back up again.
- It's a 15.
- Cool, easy, get back up,
jump to your feet and go ahead
and attack with advantage.
- Great.
[spooky music]
Okay, that is a 26.
- [Brennan] A 26!
- A 26 to hit.
- That is absolutely a hit.
- Great.
- Wow, Rosamund,
you should have been on team extraction.
- Look, we made a lot of
mistakes in that first fight,
and I'm here to remedy that right now.
Nobody goes down today.
- That's right, new story, new attitude.
- Also, team extraction succeeded.
- [laughs] So I'm going
to use my Gathered Swarm
to add a d6 of piercing damage.
So as I sh**t my arrow I say,
little birds, little birds.
Help this out, please.
- Roiling out from your cloak
with sort of kind of a little expl*si*n
of briars and thorns around
it [mimics forward thrust]
these sparrows and starlings
just rush forward from you.
- And I'm gonna re-roll
this two to get another two.
That's 14 piercing damage.
- Hell yes.
You see an arrow fly
through, briefly illuminated
by the glowing web strands.
[mimics arrow piercing]
Muffet, [yowls] not very nice at all.
- You're not very nice!
[Brennan gasps]
You're the not nice one.
- Aren't I?
And you see here a weird moment
of confusion cross Muffet's face.
I thought this was very nice.
Rosamund, that's your
action, your movement.
Anything else from you?
- No, that's it.
- Hell yeah. Pib, that's gonna be you.
- Can I look at my ring
just to see if it's interacting
with the situation at all?
- [mimics piercing whine]
Right at f*cking Muffet.
- [Murph] It's pointing
right at Goldilocks.
- I'd like to like, in a perfect world
we could have k*lled
this other dude first,
but since I have advantage
and it's under Faerie Fire,
I'm just gonna go for it.
- [Murph] Yeah, go for it.
- And I don't think you're
gonna get attacked right now
'cause everyone's on top of me.
- Okay, this is bad.
Does a 13 hit?
- 13 does not hit.
- I will give Gerard the help action.
- Gerard, he's gonna need it.
- [Lou] He needs it.
- And just hang tight.
- [Brennan] Cool.
- This sucks. I hate this.
- [mimics dagger thumping]
Another dagger thuds out.
That is then going to be
Little Red Riding Hood.
- I think I'm also like,
these guys could just keep attacking me
so I'm just gonna turn and
try to hit Miss Muffet.
- You also have advantage because
I used Distracting Strike.
- Okay, then I'll go after
the one in front of me then.
[die shaking then rolling on table]
Oh.
Does a 15 hit?
- The one in front of you is, I believe,
yes, is hit by a 15.
- [Ally] Nice.
- Great, okay, so that's 10 damage,
and he needs to do a con save.
- It does not need to do a con save.
What does it look like as Ylfa
finishes off this spider in front of her?
- I finish off the spider.
Since this was a bite
attack, I finish it off
by fully eating it.
- [Ally] No!
- And then I'm going to bonus action Shift
so that I get an extra AC and
I get an extra five temp HP.
so that I get an extra AC and
I get an extra five temp HP.
- So all of you watch, and again-
[Emily mimics spider slurping]
Ylfa's head is human, so
this human jaw unhinges
[Brennan mimics jaw chewing loudly]
and you see that as it began so it ends.
The spider goes, What gives?
- Brother, I need your strength.
- I watched the whole thing.
[Emily laughing]
- [Murph] Good work, good work.
- [Zac] We need to get out of here, right?
- Just unable to move, staring-
- I'm bad, right? I'm bad?
- No, you're good. You're really good.
- No, that was good. That was good.
- Big bad wolf spider.
[Emily laughing]
- Incredible, you do the Shift. AC 17.
Mother Goose, that's gonna be you.
- What do I have to do to
be able to cast a spell?
- You can make a strength
check as an action
or you can just take the
position that you're in right now
and be like, yep, I'm stuck
in a web and I'm gonna like,
cast some spells and do stuff.
- I think that's what I wanna do.
- Okay, you got it.
- I just stay in here and I just go, la.
[Brennan and Emily laughing]
Is the biggie and the one to its right
- [Brennan] Yes, those are
within 10 feet of each other.
- I would like to cast Shatter
in a 10-foot radius sphere.
- [Emily] Yeah! [claps]
- Absolutely sick.
- [Zac] Beautiful.
- [Emily] Yes!
- [Brennan] Sick as hell.
That is a dexterity saving throw, correct?
- Con.
- [Brennan] Oh, it's a con saving throw.
- You can't keep Timothy down.
- [Brennan] Con saving throw.
- Ya!
[Ally and Emily laughing]
- Okay, so they both make the save,
but Shatter still goes off.
Go ahead and roll damage.
- [Lou] D8s?
- Yeah, 1d8, please.
- E, chi, chi, go ahead.
- Yay! [laughs]
- Yes, nice throw!
- Okay, so that is 18.
- You do eight-
- [Ally] So nine each.
- Nine each?
- [Ally] Yeah.
- I just wanna say something.
On the last two attacks
from Ylfa and Mother Goose,
you have both done exactly the
correct damage to drop both.
So this little one.
- [Ally] Yes, hell yeah.
- This spider disappears, and
you said you did 18, right?
- Yeah, I did 18.
- [Brennan] 18.
So still, nine damage passes
through to Muffet from that.
What does it look like as
you cast this Shatter spell?
How does this take effect?
- I'm so scared and this
f*cking sucks and I can't move
and I'm just like [shouts nervously]
so I try to do what I can.
But I am also like, looking
through the book to be like,
I am wondering, can I
get this into the book
and will that heal it or probably not.
- Yeah, actually, give
me a perception check.
- Okay.
[dice roll]
- [Brennan] 22!
I think as you land and are just like,
welp, I'm completely
immobile, I'm stuck in a web.
Like you say, you open your
book and you have your quill.
You don't know what you're looking at,
but you basically see that
the monster in front of you
is holding a bowl and you
see it's curds and whey.
- [Lou] Hm.
- And something draws
your attention to that.
And I think as you cast Shatter,
you write 'curds and whey'
and the book accepts it and
you see fracturing in reality,
just like [mimics
shattering] and all you see
like bits of text and story
unravel as Muffet goes, [wails]
and screams and you hear two
voices of a monstrous spider
and a young girl screaming
at the same time.
Something in the Shatter
spell seems to momentarily
create a fissure in space and time.
- Cool.
- [Zac] Cool.
- So whatever that was,
it appears to be working.
- [Lou] Damn, dude.
- And then I'd love to dash
so I'll use my zero movement-
[cast laughing]
- Timothy, I have Web Sense.
Are you dashing over there?
- I'm dashing all over the
place. The wind's in my face.
- Gerard, it's gonna be you.
- All right.
I'm going to do a
courageous act of cowardice.
I look bravely at Ylfa.
You got the big one?
- Whew, uh...
- 'Cause I'll take the little one.
[Ally laughing]
And I'm going to jump over
'cause I see Timothy's
in some trouble here,
might get attacked with advantage.
So I'm going to use my new frog ability
to triple my jump speed and
try to get like, on this dude.
- Oh!
- [Emily] Ooh!
- [Brennan] Hell yes.
- And then you could surf 'em
for any more things.
- So yes, you see in this
new world you have this like,
your crown of gold actually has like,
lilies and pads along it
and glows bright as you,
boom, leap, bypass all the webbing
and arrive unscathed and unharmed.
And you want to be inbetween
basically like here, right?
- I think I want to land
on it so I don't get stuck.
- Okay, sick. The jump
gets you the distance.
But to like, this is gonna
be an athletics check.
You're effectively trying to
grapple the spider, right?
- Got it, okay, I will do that as my thing
with advantage from Pib.
- [Brennan] Cool.
- Come on, and then I have
to get rid of a d4 here.
Nat 20.
- Yeah!
- [Brennan] Nat 20, f*ck yeah.
- [Ally] Yay!
- Hell yes, I'm gonna go
ahead and say, on a nat 20,
make your attack with advantage as well.
- Yeah! [cheers]
[Zac cheers]
- Okay...
- I'm like a caddy like,
you're gonna wanna go
a little to the left.
[Brennan laughing]
- [Ally] Yeah, yeah.
- Double nats?
- Double nats?
- Oh God, 14.
- 14 hits.
- [Emily] Yeah it does!
- Ooh, I do need to do Bane.
- Oh, okay.
- But I do have an ability,
depending on how bad I r-
If I roll okay I might be
able to get myself out of it.
Okay, so two, a minus two, so
that takes me down to a 12.
- Do you want to do anything?
- Yes, I have an ability
called Saving Face.
Once per short rest if I
miss I can add one point
Once per short rest if I
miss I can add one point
based on my allies that
I can see within 30 feet.
- You can see me.
- So I can see these two guys,
and I can see...
- [Ally] So three.
- They're beyond 30 feet,
but that gets you back to 14
if you use Saving Face.
- [Murph] I will do that.
- Hell yeah.
- [Emily] Yes.
- Go ahead and roll damage.
- Sick.
And then I'm also going to
do a maneuvering attack.
They just need to be able to hear me
and can move up to half its speed
without provoking opportunity attacks.
So I'm going to yell to Pinocchio.
- [Lou] What?
- [Emily] Yeah.
- Say, look alive, wet, naked
spiders on your 10, 11, 12,
- Say, look alive, wet, naked
spiders on your 10, 11, 12,
one and two and behind the
and the 10 and the 11.
- In this metaphor, it's a clock?
- Yes.
- Okay, got it.
- Great, so you can pop
up with half your speed.
- Actually, you can go up with 15,
and you have 15 feet of
movement left if you want it.
- I would like to move toward
the chittering spiders.
- [gasps] Sick as hell, okay.
- [Zac] Ooh.
- Brave.
- Go ahead and give me
your acrobatics to move, or
if you want to just accept it
as difficult terrain,
you can do that, too.
- I think I'm gonna take
it as difficult terrain.
- [Brennan] Okay.
- I think it'll just be a,
all right, 10, that's um, that's uh,
that's like, I think here and here.
- Difficult terrain means
you're gonna have to pick
'cause you're only gonna be
able to take a five-foot step
in one direction or another.
- Yeah, that's fine.
- [Brennan] Cool.
- And I think it'll be to the right
to get kind of in front of Rosamund.
- [Brennan] Cool, right here, boom.
- [Lou] Beautiful.
- With that maneuvering, you hear Gerard.
Gerard, go ahead and roll damage.
- Ooh, nice.
- Ooh.
- 22 damage.
- [Siobhan] Wow.
- [Ally] Nice!
- Gonna add that d8.
- [Lou] Wow!
- Battle master's no joke.
- [Brennan] Holy sh*t.
- Wow, that's so sick.
- Honestly-
- [Zac] A chunky slice.
- Rosamund, I think Gerard's better
the more he gets to be like a frog.
- Oh, agreed.
[Ally laughs]
- I don't know why he's so
desperate to go back to prince.
- We are all thinking it.
- Just furiously licking
all of the spider goo that comes out.
- [Ally] Ew, ew!
[Brennan laughing]
- Yeah, there is this
insane frog-like leap
as you sail through the air
and [grunts] plunge your sword.
I mean, spiders are one of
frog's natural food sources.
- I mean, as someone who just
ate one, it was great for me.
- Yeah, just like a big steak out here.
None of the dark vision
people tell the others.
- That spider fails its injury con save
so you see it takes a level
of exhaustion as well.
- Nice.
- After Gerard,
now it is once again going to
be the giant spiders' turns.
- Spiders!
- The spider under
Gerard is gonna go first.
Badly injured as it is, this
thing is going to turn around
and tries to throw up a bunch
of strands of web on you
which touch your slimy
skin and just fall away.
- Nice.
- Okay, sick.
This one's gonna... [mimics skittering]
- [Murph] Oh boy, Ylfa.
- [Brennan] And then...
- [Emily] I fear nothing.
- I fear everything. [laughs]
- Okay, this one is gonna come over here.
One of these is coming for
Pib. One's coming for Ylfa.
[spooky music]
The one against Ylfa hits.
- Am I able to cast two
spells in the same round
if it's a reaction?
- [Brennan] If one of
them is a reaction, yes.
- Okay, then I cast Silvery
Barbs on that one that hit.
- The one that hits Ylfa?
Sick, you should be good.
- [Emily] Yeah, we're there. We're there.
- Yeah, you're solid. Hell yeah.
- Hya!
[Siobhan and Ally laughing]
- Great job, Tim.
- Rolling a 16 on the disadvantage.
- Yes! Good thing I ate that spider.
- So sick.
- Pinocchio, as you
charge towards the spider
sent to come and destroy you, you look up
and see bursting forth
from Mother Goose's book,
still just stuck in a web,
the beautiful silvery image
of Senator the ram.
- Oh!
- Senator!
- Whew, and knocks a bunch of
web strands out of the way.
- Oh!
- [Brennan] Incredible.
- The best ram that ever was.
- You've completely negated
those sort of larger spiders' turn.
Pinocchio, that's gonna be you.
- You have advantage on
your next thing, too-
- Okay.
- Yes!
- I'm gonna have Pinocchi-Crow
fly back to be 10 feet
- I'm gonna have Pinocchi-Crow
fly back to be 10 feet
above the supposed spiders at my 10s
and all of those numbers.
- [Brennan] Yep.
- Become immediately terrified
by the number of spiders.
[cast laughing]
And go, Mom, help! And I'm
gonna cast Fey Presence.
[Brennan gasps]
So every creature
in a 10-foot cube is gonna
make a wisdom saving throw
or be frightened and/or charmed.
- 10-foot cube is
probably gonna affect four
of these spiders so you tell me
which four you want to affect.
- [Lou] We'll take the
quatro on the right.
- [Brennan] Okay, so the
four right in front of you.
- [Lou] Yes.
- [Brennan] They're making
wisdom saving throws
against a DC of 13.
- DC 13.
- Okay.
[dice rattling]
[dice tap table]
The two in the front fail.
The two in the back succeed.
- Great, that's two.
And then Pinocchi-Crow.
I'm gonna use my bonus
action to have Pinocchi-Crow
fly in front of this and attack this one.
- [Brennan] Cool, go ahead
and roll your attack.
- Great. Come on, Pinocchi-Crow.
Come on, Pinocchi-Crow.
That's a 13 from Pinocchi-Crow.
- A 13 from Pinocchi-Crow.
Hits these smaller newly-hatched spiders.
- And then I need a DC 13
constitution saving throw
from that spider.
- It is a fail on that saving throw.
- It is a fail. Do they
take poison damage?
- They do take poison damage.
- Okay, then it's a 3d6
poison damage plus seven
- Okay, then it's a 3d6
poison damage plus seven
plus five so 18 points of
damage from Pinocchi-Crow.
plus five so 18 points of
damage from Pinocchi-Crow.
- So describe what it looks
like as Pinocchi-Crow takes out-
- I think it's honestly disgusting.
I think Pinocchi-Crow flies down,
claws deep in, rips it apart.
And it's the scariest thing
I've ever seen Pinocchi-Crow do.
- All of you watch a crow
gleefully burrow into goo
going like... [caws wildly]
- [Lou] Oh, it's dead.
It's dead, Pinocchi-Crow.
- Just bubbles.
- [Emily] Go, Pinocchi-Crow!
- Bubbles in a open wound of spider goo. -
[Emily] Eat it. You're gonna get stronger.
- And then I would like,
if Pinocchi-Crow could rest
at spider level, that would be great.
- Okay, you want Pinocchi-Crow
to be effectively be a target
for them to attack.
- Yes.
Let's put Pinocchi-Crow on the board.
- The first D&D player in history
to purposely put his pet in danger.
[cast laughing]
- That's horror campaign.
That's really-
- I don't like him.
[cast laughing]
But I would love if Pinocchi-Crow
just looks really appetizing
and covered in spider goo.
- Yeah, this incredibly
wet happy bird [gurgles]
having just k*lled this spider.
Anything else from Pinocchio?
- I'd like to do Charmed.
It's an intimidating
charm, but a charm it is.
- I mean, if it's your
weird-a*s stepmom coming out
she's probably like, Ladies, come on.
And the spiders are like, Yeah!
- [laughs] We'll make that canon.
- Am I charmed or am I frightened?
I don't know, both of them?
- [Ally] Ladies.
- My stepmother's visage
appears on my face and says, Ladies.
- [Brennan] Ladies.
- Be reasonable.
- [Siobhan] Manners.
- We enter the top of the order again.
[cast groaning]
[Brennan mimics spider sounds]
- [Zac] [gasps] Don't do it.
- [Lou] Oh, that feels bad.
- I've got a cat on my back,
but I'm huge. I'm large.
- That's true, you're very big.
Would you think Red would want
to take the hits over Pib?
- Yes, that's what I'm here to do.
- [Brennan] Okay.
- I'm here for the hits.
- [Zac] This feels not great.
- [Lou] Are you still a spider?
- I'm a spider.
- With a girl's face
and a jaw that unhinges
and eats other spiders?
- Yeah, well I'm not actually.
I'm just in spider form.
It's a fighting stance in
which I break all my bones
and skitter about like a spider.
- [Ally] Incredible
fighting stance. [laughs]
[Emily laughing]
- [Lou] What happened, Brennan's mouth?
- Don't do this to us.
- This is the horror season
and it's supposed to be scary
and I just rolled two threes and a one.
- That's actually great
'cause I keep rolling threes.
[cast laughing]
- Just two spiders whiffing.
- This is just gonna happen both ways.
- You see that wheeling around,
this giant monster turns
and looks at you and goes,
[inhales roughly] and you
see a little girl's face
looking at your face.
[creepy music]
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Are you also a cusping pre-teen?
- Yes, but curds and whey
don't really cut it anymore!
And she swings at you with
this razor-sharp spoon
leaning down like. [grunts]
- I dodge it with Pib on
my back and then I'm like,
I gotta get you on the garnish train.
[cast laughing]
- So Muffet misses three times in a row
with three different attacks
and then immediately after that
is the lair action initiative
where she kicks the web again.
However, you're mounted on a
spider. Pib and Ylfa are okay.
You have submitted to this fate.
- In a way, in a way-
- Just laying on a trampoline.
- I'm safer than I've ever been, honey.
- So I'm gonna need strength saving throws
from Rosamund and Pinocchio.
- Oh boy.
- [Murph] Oh man.
- Oh, that's a 16.
- That's a nine.
- Okay, you do not fall
prone. Pinocchio, you do.
I'm gonna need that dex save from you.
- Okay.
[sinister music]
That's a, my...
A four.
[Emily laughing]
- And now the babies.
- [Lou] No.
- [Brennan] So we're gonna go
one baby here for Rosamund.
- [Lou] Boo!
- [Siobhan] Boo.
- If you just kinda lay
there, it works out.
But only if Gerard comes and fights-
- However, Pinocchio, by virtue
of having charmed the two in front of you,
you've actually tactically closed off
that means of approach so
only two get around to you,
but you do fall into the web
so they're gonna get attacks
on you with advantage.
- I look at the two who didn't
get charmed and go, ladies!
[Ally laughing]
Ladies!
- We'll resolve those ones first.
Each of these is gonna be with advantage
because you are restrained.
No nat 20 there, but that is a hit.
No nat 20 there, but that is a hit.
I'm gonna need two
constitution saving throws.
- [Lou] Why?
- 'Cause they're poison.
[Siobhan groans]
- Wait...
- [Zac] But you're a puppet.
- Oh, yeah.
- I'm a puppet.
- [Siobhan] He's a puppet.
He's a little puppet boy.
- I have advantage on saving
throws against being poisoned,
and I have resistance to poison damage.
- Oh sh*t, okay.
- [Emily] Oh!
- And I add plus three to this.
[dice tapping table]
That's an 18 and a 19
for the first one, 22.
[dice tapping table]
[sinister music]
And that's a 15 for the second one, 18.
- Wow, okay, their poison sinks into you,
but you're made of wood.
And you can see the spiders
don't like biting you.
- Yes.
- Wow, first attack is
seven piercing, one poison
which will halve to zero.
You don't take any poison
from that first one.
- [Lou] Okay, so that-
- [Ally] Ooh.
- So seven and the next one is six damage.
- Great.
- [Brennan] And that's gonna
be two concentration checks.
- You got it. Both are DC 10?
- Both are DC 10.
- First one is only a five.
- [Brennan] Okay, you lose Faerie Fire
which means that Muffet-
- [Siobhan] Damn.
- Now it's just sort of horrifying.
Only like a quarter of
her body is illuminated.
However, I don't think
you look that hurt, right?
- Yeah, I've only lost
- Okay, so biting into
you, you see these fangs
are kind of scratching the wood.
It's more that they're
pulling at the areas of rot
than they're like, piercing
into you that dramatically.
- Ah, stop, stop!
- [growls] As these spiders attack.
One's coming for Rosamund.
That is going to be a miss.
Pinocchi-Crow's armor class?
- Pinocchi-Crow's armor class is 13.
- Well, that's two misses.
[Murph and Emily cheer]
And then these babies
are going to leap off.
Seven attacks coming Ylfa's way.
- My AC is 17.
- None of 'em are coming for me?
- If you want them to come,
I can dip back.
- I don't.
- But I'm large and you're on top of me.
- I don't think any of them,
'cause you've been throwing
these ranged attacks
that are very, like, that
disappear in the darkness
and they are seeing Muffet
attack Red specifically
so I think they're all gonna go-
- Seven attacks, oh.
[tense music]
[dice rattling]
- [Brennan] Okay, no nat 20s.
- Oof.
- That's gonna be four hits.
Give me four constitution saving throws.
- Okay, so the first one
I have to use the Silvery Barbs, right?
- The chosen creature has advantage,
oh, on the next attack roll,
ability check, or saving throw.
- Okay, okay, so I have to...
That's gonna be a fail
anyways unless a 10 saves.
- 10 does not save. Actually,
go and just roll, the DC's 11.
- The DC's 11 so then-
- [Brennan] Let me know how many you fail.
- So it's four?
- [Brennan] Yeah.
- Missed that.
- [Murph] Jesus Christ.
- 12, I save on one of them.
And then is there a four? Yeah.
And I also miss. [laughs]
- [Murph] Jesus Christ.
- Okay, that's a lotta...
- [Emily] I... [laughs]
- That's a lotta extra poison damage.
- I should go back to
playing a spellcaster.
My dice do not like when
I am not a spellcaster.
- You want other people
to be rolling, yeah.
[cast laughing]
Okay, we'll resolve the
piercing damage first.
Okay, we'll resolve the
piercing damage first.
So four hits so the first attack
is going to deal seven
halved to three piercing
is going to deal seven
halved to three piercing
plus five poison so that's eight
damage on the first attack.
- Okay.
- Second attack is going to be
five halved to two
piercing plus seven poison
so that's nine damage on the next attack.
- Okay.
- Six halved to three
piercing plus five poison
so that third attack deals eight damage.
- Eight damage. So now
I am no longer a spider.
So does that carry over to my...
- Any extra damage carries
over to your next form.
- Okay, so how much was that total?
- [Brennan] That was eight total.
- Eight total, okay.
- [Brennan] So your spider form goes away
as these spiders all lunge and attack you.
Pib, give me a dexterity saving throw.
- Okay.
[die tapping table]
- [Murph] Eeeee
That's a 24.
- [Ally] Nice.
- Oh yeah, you're totally fine.
But you are now sort of on
the web surrounded by spiders.
- Okay.
[Brennan laughing]
- And then the last
attack coming for Ylfa,
the last set of damage is gonna be
three halved to one.
- [Emily] Okay.
- Plus seven poison so eight
damage from that last attack.
- Okay, it's still not half my hit points.
- All of you watch a mob
of spiders descend on Ylfa
as she is forced to transform back
into a more recognizable-
- Ylfa!
[Emily laughing]
- This wave of these little spiders goes.
And Ylfa, you're once again holding
this gleaming woodsman's
ax with a little bit
of this wolf blood that
flickers for a moment.
- Thank you, sisters and brothers.
You knew that I was held
back by using my bite
when I have such a sick ax.
[cast laughing]
- [Brennan] Rosamund, that's gonna be you.
- Oh boy, what's it gonna take
for me to get Pinocchio up?
- He's restrained so it would be an action
or you can attack the webbing
and try to destroy it.
- Leave me.
- I'm not gonna leave you.
- [Ally] Tiny little boy.
- I'm not gonna leave you, little boy.
- Leave me to the ladies.
[Emily laughing]
- Are we back to barrel service?
- You guys, kind of a
big spider over here.
- This Faerie Fire over there
isn't doing very much any more
so I'm gonna cast Zephyr Strike.
- Okay.
[wind howling]
- Which means that I don't
provoke opportunity attacks.
- [Brennan] Cool.
- I'm gonna use my
action to free Pinocchio,
and then I'm gonna move.
I like, pick up Pinocchio
'cause he's small as my like...
- Sick, okay, so you're gonna have
to basically make the check he would make
to escape the web for him.
- Sure, that's fine.
- So what I'm gonna need
from you is a strength check.
- Come on.
- Leave me to the ladies.
- That's a nine.
- Nine unfortunately doesn't do it.
- God damn it!
- You go and you are pulling
as hard you can. - [Emily] I
really like the hustle, though.
- But he is fully stuck to the web
as these spiders are around there.
You've bonus action cast Zephyr Strike.
What is it that you want
to do in this moment?
- In which case I'm gonna
say, I'm sorry little guy.
You're on your own.
- Leave me to the ladies.
- You're on your own. I'm sorry.
- No, I understand. Get out of here.
- I'm gonna move this way.
- [Brennan] Okay, so gonna move 30.
Go ahead and give me
your acrobatics check.
- There's the roll. Yeah, that's a 22.
- [Brennan] Okay, great.
Easily move as fast as you can.
- Just disappears into utter darkness.
- We're all on our own
in the dark, little boy.
- Whoa.
- [Murph] Holy sh*t.
- What the f*ck? What the f*ck? -
[Brennan] Rosamund's become metal as hell.
- That's a long walk from-
- An absolutely haunting thing.
- Wow, okay. It's just me
and a bunch of spiders, okay.
- [laughs] That is going to be Pib.
- Is there any like, advantage
I could gain from hopping
on the back of this big-a*s
spider in front of me?
- [sighs] You'd be able to hit it.
- Okay, I'm gonna try to make
some sort of acrobatics check
to like, get on top of this spider.
- We'll make opposed checks.
Her athletics versus your acrobatics.
- [Zac] Okay.
- Essentially you're trying
to do like a weird kind of grapple.
- Yeah.
- I will let you know
the number you need to beat.
You need to beat a 19.
- [Murph] Jesus.
- Sheesh.
- [Ally] You got it.
- [Siobhan] You got it,
you got it. No problem.
- I don't beat it.
- Okay, so you cannot get up on her back
from where you are right now,
but you don't lose your action doing that.
- And since I'm five
feet away from an ally,
I just try to attack.
- Cool, go for it.
[die tapping]
[tense music]
- f*ck, another miss.
- Dude, throw that dice out.
- This die is in jail.
- Get rid of it.
- I'm gonna do-
- [Lou] Go to jail, dice.
- Ylfa, I'll give you my bonus.
- Oh, thank you.
- 'Cause we're...
- Are you sure you want to give it to me?
- Absolutely f*cked.
- I'm like, really rolling poorly.
- Well, anything-
- You got it, you got it.
- [Emily] Okay, okay.
- [Brennan] Pib, you are
surrounded. You throw a knife.
It vanishes into the dark,
and you can feel the spiders
closing in around you.
Red, that's you.
- Okay.
I'm gonna take out my woodsman
ax, and I'm gonna look
at Miss Muffet and be
like, look, I get it.
Everyone raised you and told you
you were gonna be beautiful and charming
and good at singing and dancing
and now you're a f*cking monster.
And I don't know the silver
lining of that. I really don't.
And I'm trying to find
out, but there's just,
there's gotta be something
to being a monster.
And then I attack her with an ax.
- Go for it.
- [Ally] Oh!
- Okay, I'm definitely
gonna hit thanks to that.
- [Ally] Nice.
- I did get another three,
but 25 to hit.
- 25 definitely hits.
Go ahead and roll damage.
- Ooh, come on!
- [Ally] Hell yeah.
[Brennan cheers]
- And then I'm going to
bonus action Wild Shape
once again into a giant spider,
and can I take Pib onto
my back as I do it?
- Yeah, go ahead and give me athletics
or acrobatics to get Pib
onto your back again.
- Okay, I'm gonna do athletics
'cause I roll that with advantage.
So 11.
- An 11 to get Pib back onto your back.
- If I don't get him onto my back,
then I'll just sit on him.
[Ally and Brennan laughing]
- [Brennan] Actually, yeah.
I think on 11 you can provide him cover.
- Okay, okay.
- So Pib's gotta deal
with the little spiders around him,
but you are covering him from
any attacks from Miss Muffet.
- Thank you.
- [Emily] Okay.
- And go ahead, give me actually
a free persuasion check.
- It's gonna be a minus one to it.
- 10.
As you shout at Muffet
you see her just [shouts]
opening this mouth filled with mandibles
swinging at you with
this little, tiny spoon.
Mother Goose, that's gonna be you.
- Okay.
- You see like, ichor pouring
out of this fresh wound
from the woodsman's ax across
one of the massive legs,
but there are some bad
situations occurring.
- Okay, great, then I am going
to stay exactly where I am
- Okay, great, then I am going
to stay exactly where I am
'cause this is working so far.
And I would like to look at Miss Muffet,
kinda crane my neck so that maybe
I can kind of make eye
contact and be like,
young girl, I don't know
what's happened to you,
but we're going to figure it out.
But in the meantime, I'm very disappointed
in your behavior right now.
And I cast Vicious Mockery.
- [Murph] Nice.
- Timothy, I've never
heard you speak like that
with a child before.
- Listen, sometimes, you know,
you need to bring out-
- [Zac] Calm down, Timothy!
- Miss Muffet, you're
getting a talking to.
- I'm quite disappointed.
- Incredible.
Okay, Vicious Mockery. Succeed
on a wisdom saving throw.
- Or take a d4 of psychic damage.
- Muffet does not fail.
She succeeds on her save.
[snarls and exhales
sharply] And snarls at you.
I don't care what anyone has to say.
- Then I would love to bonus
action Healing Word to Red.
- I would allow the healing to go through
to Ylfa's wounded form
underneath the Wild Shape
if you want to do that.
- Yeah, I mean, it's not a ton so...
- I mean, anything.
- Let's see, yes!
Four plus my spellcasting.
- That's eight.
- [Ally] That is eight.
- [Brennan] All right,
that's Mother Goose.
Gerard, that's you.
- I'm going to use the attack action,
but I'm going to forgo my attack
and use a bonus action to
direct an ally that I can see,
that can see or hear me to use reaction
to add a superiority
die to the damage roll.
I'm going to look at Pib.
- Huh?
- And I'm gonna be like, Pib.
- [Emily] Yeah.
- Yes.
- All right?
- What?
- Last time
you sort of threw your
knife not at the spider.
I'm going to need you to hit the spider.
Do you think you could do that?
- This f*cking guy.
[cast laughing]
- Go ahead and take a swing.
[Siobhan laughing]
- Yes! [smacks fists]
- Dirty 20.
- That is a hit.
- [Emily] Yes!
- Go ahead and roll damage.
- So you'll do your sneak
attack and add a d8 to this.
- Ooh, okay.
- [Ally] Hell yea.
- So it's these die plus four.
So a eight on the d8.
[Brennan cheers]
So 21 damage.
- Sick!
- [Brennan] Wow, okay.
[Emily cheers]
You throw another knife that plunges
into the already sort of revealed area
where Red's ax thudded into the leg.
And you see that one of the legs curls up
and twists underneath Muffet
as she lists to one side, imbalanced.
- Take that, Goldilocks!
[cast laughing]
- The spider underneath
you is going to attempt
to attack you, Gerard.
- [Murph] Cool.
- That is a hit. Go ahead-
- Silvery Barbs.
- Silvery Barbs?
- [Emily] Yeah!
- You got it.
- As a reaction.
So yeah, roll again.
- Okay.
That is a miss.
- Oof, thank you.
- Senator appears again.
How are you looking on your
spell slots over there?
- Senator! One more, one more first.
- Cool, that attack is negated.
- I see that Vicious
Mockery's only a cantrip.
- Looking at, there's no
space to get to Red anymore
so this one's going to [snort]
swirl around to Rosamund.
- Be careful, Rosamund.
They have top hats.
- I'm gonna need a constitution
saving throw from Rosamund.
- Just one?
- [Murph] You hate to hear it.
- [Brennan] Just one.
- A 13.
- [Brennan] 13 succeeds.
- Oh, thank God.
- You take six, eight,
plus two, plus three.
You take 11 points of damage
from one of the spiders
biting into your leg. [snarls]
And that's going to be Pinocchio.
- I am going to pull a
Tim. I'm not gonna move.
- [Siobhan] Cool.
- [Emily] Wow.
- 'Cause they'll just chase me
and then on their turn attack me.
- You could get up though.
- Yeah, I'm not surrounded.
- Oh, instead of restrained.
- Although that's an action.
- You said you can do an attack.
- [Brennan] Yeah.
- Against the web.
- [Brennan] Yeah.
- Instead of a...
- That's correct.
- I think Pinocchi-Crow
is going to peck at the webs to free me.
- Okay, go ahead and make an
attack roll for Pinocchi-Crow.
- [Murph] Come on.
- Come the f*ck on, Pinocchi-Crow.
[die rolling off the table]
- That's, it's gone. It's gone, dude.
- What is it?
- It's absolutely gone.
- Pinocchi-Crow is gonna
throw down a solid 19.
- [Siobhan] Nice.
- That is a hit.
Go ahead and roll damage.
What types of damage
does Pinocchi-Crow do?
- Pinocchi-Crow does poison
damage and piercing damage.
- [Brennan] How much piercing
damage does Pinocchi-Crow do?
- He does...
Seven piercing damage.
- With five hit points but
immunity to poison damage
so it had to happen on the
piercing, Pinocchi-Crow [caws]
flies in and you see,
honestly the way it looks
is just Pinocchi-Crow grabs
your wooden shoulders,
beats his wings and
[mimics wings flapping]
pulls you up off the webbing.
You are still prone but
no longer restrained.
- Okay, thanks, uh, crow.
If I were to move forward
through the two charmed spiders-
- They'll allow you to move through them,
but you'll get two swings on you.
- I'll take 'em.
- [Ally] Oh.
- Okay, I'm gonna need the acrobatics
to get safely through the webbing.
- That's a 15.
- [Brennan] You are solid gold.
- [pants] Ladies, ladies.
- [Brennan] Okay.
- What is that?
- I imagine Pinocchio is like,
on it, straddling it,
just squeaking forward.
- Just give me one
constitution saving throw.
One hit on your way out.
- With advantage 'cause
it's against being poisoned.
- [Brennan] Yep, 'cause-
- [Murph] Oh nice, nice, dude.
- That's gonna be another...
Or that's, it's another 14
on the die, but a 17 to save.
- [Brennan] You take
seven points of piercing.
- [Lou] Okay, not fun.
- And overall the attack
does nine points of damage
'cause you do add in that extra two
so you take seven piercing
plus two poison, which is already halved.
- Okay, that is more than
half my hit point total
in a single attack.
- [Murph] Damn.
- Okay, go ahead and give me
a DC 10 constitution saving throw.
- That is an 11.
- [Murph] Nice.
- Cool, you do not take
a level of exhaustion.
You have been ripped up by these spiders,
but you got 15 feet of movement-
so you can go five, 10, 15, here?
[Lou mimicking shimmying]
- [Lou] Great, that feels fine.
- [Ally] Wow, incredible.
- And I believe that's just movement.
You have your full action
and bonus action left.
- I would like to cast Faerie Fire again.
- [Ally] Yes.
- On the last known position
that Little Miss Muffet was in.
- This is a radiant spell and
she's huge. It's no sweat.
- You can probably get some of
these little guys too, right?
- Yeah, if I can get those guys,
I'd love to get those guys.
- Okay, let's see here. Yeah,
I'll give the you middle ones.
- I'm aiming for, you know,
her lady figure, not her butt.
- Oh that was almost a 17 but it wasn't.
Set a seven on the die. Muffet fails.
Once again Faerie Fire'd.
- [Ally] Nice!
- And I just rolled two nat ones
for the two spiders underneath!
- Wow, they are brightly colored.
- Wow.
- Pinocchio, this is like,
the best instance of the spell.
What does it look like as
this unhinges from your hands?
- I think Pinocchio is honestly thinking
about what Rosamund said and the fact
that we're alone in darkness
and is like, [screams] no, no!
And is just going to, I
think as he screams no,
a misty kind of grayish light emerges
that then takes on a green color
and the area around her dimly illuminated.
- [Brennan] I love it.
- [Siobhan] Beautiful.
- Finally, I'm gonna have
Pinocchi-Crow use his movement.
He'll take the opportunity attacks as well
and he'll place himself right behind me.
- [Brennan] Cool.
- Pinocchi-Crow, come on!
- What's Pinocchi-Crow's AC?
- [Lou] 13.
- 13, give me a con
save for Pinocchi-Crow.
- Is this to be poisoned?
- [Brennan] Yes.
- Immunity.
- Oh, sh*t!
- [Murph] Nice.
- [Ally] Yes.
- Hell yeah, so that's
just a straight four points
of piercing damage to Pinocchi-Crow.
- Pinocchi-Crow has
resistance to piercing damage
so only two points of
damage to Pinocchi-Crow.
- What is going on?
- Absolutely.
- This bird is scary!
[Ally and Siobhan laughing]
- Incredible turn from Pinocchio,
the little wooden boy.
- [Emily] Yeah! [claps]
- Leaping from the mass
of spiders pursuing him.
That's gonna bring us back
to the top of the order.
Muffet is going to once again
take her swings against Ylfa.
Muffet is going to once again
take her swings against Ylfa.
Let's see how she does here.
- I think we're already dead
if Ylfa didn't take some druid levels.
- Yeah, for sure. Absolutely.
[Emily chuckles]
- [Brennan] Okay, hits on one of them.
- Okay.
- You take
[dramatic instrumental music]
eight halved to four piercing damage.
- [Emily] Okay.
- Plus eight poison damage.
- [Emily] So 12 total.
- [Brennan] Which I don't think does half.
- No, it definitely doesn't.
- [Brennan] Cool.
So you see coming down
with the spoon [shouts]
and slashes across your face.
- Why would you fight
me? We could be friends.
- Nobody wants to be friends with me.
- Yeah, that's how I am, too.
They all look at you
like you were a monster.
You were special when you were young
and then you f*cking went through puberty
and now you're just ugly.
- Why would I walk all the
way to the top of a hill
to eat curds and whey by myself?
Why?
- You know what?
You gotta get in the story
circle with Mother Goose.
He will tell you the story
that will make you
leave this cursed world.
- Really?
- [Emily] yeah.
- I can leave? [snarls] And
you see that there's a moment
where literally her face starts to,
like, the chitin starts
to peel away from her face
and then grabs her back
almost like the spider
is like, grafted onto her.
- Oh...
- As it grafts back on, she
screams, kicks the web again.
Pib, you're gonna be joining
everyone else this time.
So this is again, Rosamund,
Pinocchio, and Pib
making this strength saving throw.
- A strength saving throw?
- [Brennan] Strength saving throw.
[Siobhan sighs]
- 12.
- 10.
- God damn it!
Six.
- [Brennan] Pib and
Pinocchio both go down.
Go ahead and give me dex saves.
- That is a 23.
- [Brennan] You are merely prone.
- Nice.
- That's eight.
- You are once again restrained.
As you are restrained once more,
you cannot help but
feel yourself once again
surrounded by strings on all sides.
- Great thematic stuff, dude.
[Brennan laughs]
Really great thematic stuff.
- These spiders are going to
start to take some swings.
These two are charmed by
you so they're just gonna-
- [Lou] No longer.
- [Brennan] Oh, no longer
charmed. Okay, thanks.
- But surely so disoriented-
- I mean, ladies.
- [Siobhan] Yeah.
- Ladies, come on!
- You've oriented yourself
in this very clever way.
They can't get to you. They
can only get to Pinocchi-Crow.
- Thank God.
- So let's take a look
and see what their movement is over here.
- [Lou] Pinocchi-Crow!
Die for me, Pinocchi-Crow!
[cast laughing]
- [Brennan] Okay, three of them
are coming for Pinocchi-Crow
who has an armor class of what again?
- 13.
- 13, that's two hits.
Immune to poison damage?
- Immune to poison damage.
- That's gonna be six damage.
- Okay.
- And then four damage.
- [Murph] Resistance, right?
So 10 goes to five.
- Oh, resistance.
- Yes, so that's gonna be three
damage and then two damage.
- Oh, Pinocchi-Crow's
got two hit points left.
- Insane!
- [Ally] Wow.
- Pinocchi-Crow, teach me your ways. -
You can't double up resistances, can you?
- [Brennan] No.
- Okay, great.
- Give me the con save from Pinocchi-Crow.
- Pinocchi-Crow's gonna con save.
- But Pinocchi-Crow's
immune to poison, right?
- This is for the injury.
This is for taking half.
- [Emily] Oh.
- Pinocchi-Crow got a five!
[cast laughing]
- Pinocchi-Crow's been kicking
a*s and is suddenly like,
feeling, gets a level of exhaustion
as these spiders keep descending.
- Hey Pinocchi-Crow, pick
this sh*t up, all right?
- No, Pinocchi-Crow!
- [Brennan] Now, you're prone at this-
- And restrained.
- Prone and restrained.
This is gonna be advantage.
What's your armor class?
- 90. Uh, 13.
[Ally and Siobhan chuckle]
- [Brennan] That is a miss.
- Oh.
- [Siobhan] Oh.
- As it went, [yelps] leaps.
- [Zac] What an idiot.
- An idiot, truly, you are caught in a web
and this spider can't take it.
- You should be attacking Pinocchi-Crow!
[Ally and Emily laughing]
- Okay, and these three
coming for Rosamund.
- Ay-yi-yi.
- That is one hit. Give me
a constitution saving throw.
- Eight.
- Okay.
So that's gonna be 16 points
of damage to Rosamund.
- I'm down.
- [Ally] God damn it.
- [Brennan] Rosamund goes
down surrounded by spiders. -
[Lou] I'm about to be so mad.
- [Siobhan] And my Zephyr Strike.
I didn't get to use it! f*ck, damn it.
- [Brennan] Zephyr Strike is gone.
[Siobhan sighs]
- [Brennan] Okay.
- [Emily] Okay.
- I had such a clutch move
coming up. God damn it.
- [Brennan] Rosamund-
- It's so annoying.
- I'm gonna need a death saving throw.
- Already?
- [Brennan] Yep, it's your turn.
- Ay-yi-yi.
- [Brennan] Great, that's a success.
Four attacks miss on Ylfa.
- [Murph] Nice.
- [Emily] Yeah!
- Pib, these are gonna be
against you with advantage.
- Advantage?
- [Brennan] You're prone.
- Oh.
- [Brennan] Yeah you're prone.
- Oh!
- Here we go again, folks.
Here we go again.
[dice rolling]
- That's a miss.
- [Murph] Nice.
- Okay.
- That's a miss.
- Didn't you say I was
giving him cover, though,
'cause I was like, going over him?
- [Brennan] From Muffet.
- Oh, okay, from Muffet.
- That is one hit against Pib.
Give me a constitution saving throw.
- Okay.
[tense music]
That's a five.
- Okay, you are going to take...
- Sheesh.
I'm still, that's more than
half, but I have four HP left.
I'm still, that's more than
half, but I have four HP left.
- Okay, give me a
constitution saving throw.
- 19 on the die.
- Hell yeah, you are
not exhausted by this.
You can see spiders surrounding Rosamund,
spiders moving towards Pinocchio.
Things are looking dire
here, but Muffet is wounded.
- And has Faerie Fire.
- And has Faerie Fire.
Pib, that's you.
- I use half my movement to
stand up, crawl on top of Ylfa.
- [Brennan] Cool.
- To get off of the web.
- [Brennan] Good, yep.
- Get away from me, please.
- [Emily] Just a cat and a
spider. There's nothing spookier!
[Ally and Brennan laughing]
- The closest person to me
that I really feel like I can help,
I'll use my Mastermind Master of Tactics
to give you the help action.
- Nice.
- [Brennan] Cool.
- Thanks, Pib.
- Ah, you're welcome. Let's
not all die this time.
And I'm gonna, I have Faerie
Fire on Muffet, right?
- You have advantage, yep.
- [Ally] Yes, you got it.
- [Zac] Come on.
- Crit, m*therf*cker!
- Can I make first, like, is there...
Would it cause an action to like,
inspect the spoon that I can
see in the Faerie Fire or?
- No, it would not cause an action.
You can inspect the spoon.
- Okay.
[die taps table]
- It's a solid inspection.
- [Brennan] Investigation.
- Investigation 17.
- It looks like it is magical.
It looks like this is a magical weapon
that Muffet is wielding.
- But did it seem like related
to the plate that we met earlier?
- Quite possibly, mm-hmm.
- Okay.
I think this spoon maybe knows the plate!
- Oh, you've got the dish in your book.
- Yeah.
- I'm going to then attack it.
- Attack Muffet.
- [Zac] Muffet, yeah.
- Cool, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- The dish is so depressing
that the spoon will give up.
- That's true.
It's not the dish at the best-
- That's a hit. That's a 18 plus six.
- Yes, that is a hit. Go
ahead and roll damage.
- Did you add those two extra
rage damage, by the way?
- Two extra, yes, I did.
- 'Cause I forgot, okay.
- 16 damage.
- Pib, you climb back up onto Ylfa
and another thing comes out and this time
you see it injures something
further up on the torso.
And you see normally it's
been weird like spider goo,
but this time you see [mimics sloshing]
something creamy white and
chunky start to pour out,
and it looks like curds and whey.
- [Zac] Okay...
- [Brennan] Pouring out.
- The story's eating itself.
[Brennan groans]
- This horrifying groan
comes from her voice.
You see Muffet looks hurt,
is looking quite hurt.
Ylfa, that's you.
- Okay, since I have reach,
can I go after that
exact spot that he hit?
- Yeah, absolutely.
- Okay, it's Faerie Fire, right?
So I can roll with advantage.
- [Brennan] You have advantage.
Yep, go ahead and roll.
- [Ally] You got it,
you got it, you got it.
- Okay, come on. Come on, baby.
Oh my God!
- [Murph] Jesus.
- I'm gonna throw up.
- [Murph] This is insane.
- Wash your dice.
- [Lou] Throw up.
- I got a nine to hit.
- [Brennan] That is a miss.
- I rolled a three and a four.
- [Murph] Jesus.
- I hate myself and-
- No!
- I will use a bonus action
to expel my final spell slot
to get six hit points
back to my spider form.
- [Brennan] Okay.
- And then I think I've got you on my back
and I say, I think we're where
we're supposed to be, right?
- I mean, I don't know
where else to go, yeah.
- I think that we should be here.
I look up at Miss Muffet and I'm like,
yeah, I'm a f*cking monster,
but I apparently can't hit you.
[Brennan and Ally laughing]
- I'm having a really hard time
hitting you. - Yeah, right?
I think it's because we know
if this wasn't going on,
we would totally be friends.
- [Brennan] We would be friends.
Mother Goose, that is your turn.
- Okay, I will use my
final second-level slot
to cast Shatter again.
- [Brennan] Hell yeah.
- I would love to hit Miss Muffet
and as many of these little guys as I can.
I think maybe it's the three.
- [Emily] Like the
little Faerie Fire ones.
- Awesome, so here's 10-foot radius.
I think you can get two little
spiders fighting Red and Pib
or you can get the one
that's attacking Pinocchio.
- Are you guys good or
should I try to help him
a little bit more?
- I think you should...
I don't know what you think.
I'm feeling this spider's
gotta f*cking go.
- Yeah, she's definitely
getting hit no matter what.
- [Emily] Oh, okay.
- So it's her and whoever.
- Oh, get the little guy closest
'cause Pib's on my back now
so I'm taking all the damage.
- All right, go ahead and
roll your damage for Shatter.
- [Ally] Okay.
[tense music]
[dice rattling]
Yes! 16.
- 16 damage?
- Mm-hmm.
- Hell yeah.
Muffet makes her save.
This one doesn't and is just
immediately shattered apart.
- [Ally] Yes.
- [Emily] Yeah.
- You see Muffet recoils. [screams]
Once again, writing more words here.
- I'm writing silver spoon.
- [Brennan] Silver spoon.
- I'm writing curds and whey.
- Curds and whey.
Just writing as many
words as you can think of.
When you write Tuffeton, you
see that just the first part,
tuffet stays.
- Okay.
- Any bonus actions from Mother Goose?
- I have one last spell slot.
- [Murph] You can't use a spell.
- Oh, yeah, yeah. Right, of course.
- [Brennan] You could
use Bardic Inspiration.
- [Murph] Bardic, yeah.
- Bardic.
- Oh, oh.
- Oh, that's great.
- Cool, cool, cool. Gerard,
it's gonna be your turn.
- Okay, Pib.
- Yeah?
- I don't know if you can see it.
I don't know what it has
to do with Goldilocks,
but there's some white
chunky stuff coming out.
- I'm not sure that we're
talking about this...
We're not speaking the same language.
- Right, okay, so there
was the bear before.
Okay, I need you to throw it
where the injury is already,
if that makes sense.
I'm reading the book and it
says that that's very effective.
- Okay, of course.
- So I'm gonna use another superiority die
to give Pib an attack.
- Do I still have advantage?
- You do still have advantage.
- [Emily] Yeah, Faerie Fire.
- Yeah, from Faerie Fire.
And you have Bardic Inspiration as well.
- [Emily] Yeah.
- So, okay.
- Come on.
- [Ally] Come on, Pib.
- Does a...
Does a 18 hit?
- 18 does not hit.
- I'm gonna use my-
- Bardic, bardic, oh.
- My, because it's probably
pretty close, the Tabaxi thing
where I can add the people
I can see within 30 feet.
So I add like, two to this.
- [Brennan] So that's a dirty 20?
- Dirty 20.
- [Brennan] You succeed.
- [Emily] Yeah!
- [Ally] Nice!
- So I add...
- And a d8.
- A d8 to this.
- And you still get sneak attack.
- Come on, come on. [claps]
- 'Cause it's per turn as sneak attack.
- Gerard and Puss in Boots
working very well together.
- Okay...
- Ooh!
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Not great, but...
- It looked really good for a second.
- [Lou] I mean, look at
all those dice rolled.
- 17.
- Pib, another knife flies out
from your paws. [mimics wind whooshing]
You see it splits this sort of wound up,
and a true torrent of curds and whey
are just pouring out of Muffet.
You can hear the noise of them falling
into the blackness below
you into the cavern.
And far away you can hear the splattering
like a quarter of a mile down.
- No, no!
- Oh no.
- Call that "just right" porridge.
- Gerard, anything else from you?
- Yes.
[Lou chuckling]
I'm going to look at Tim and
go, Timothy, I'm so sorry.
- Mm-mm.
- I need to do another
courageous act of cowardice.
- [Ally] Get it.
- And I'm gonna jump
as far as I can to try
to get between Pinocchio
and these dudes so they
can't swarm Pinocchio.
- Hell yeah. You leap,
boing, through the area here.
You have dark vision,
so that's all groovy.
You're gonna get right here.
- [Murph] Yeah.
- Boom, hell yes. Another swing.
This one's going for Ylfa.
That's a miss.
- 17 armor class. [chuckles]
- Ylfa, what a f*cking tank,
just. [mimics wind whipping]
That giant spider misses there.
Before they can feed on Rosamund,
Gerard, you've given them a fresh target
thus sparing Rosamund
of failed death saves.
Incredibly quick thinking
as you go through your book.
As you go through your book
of f*cking sword forms.
Two attacks coming at you.
Not an act of cowardice.
- [Ally] Mm-mm.
- No, no.
- Not an act of cowardice.
Two misses against you
[mimics wind howling]
[Emily cheers]
as they come for you.
- [Siobhan] Great.
- [Ally] Oh my God.
- Pinocchio.
- Okay!
Do I get the sense that
those three spiders
are concentrated on Pinocchi-Crow
or do they seem like they still wanna,
they'll try and come around for me?
- It seems like they are
concentrated on Pinocchi-Crow
in order to get to you.
- Got it.
I think from restrained,
I'm gonna Eldritch Blast Miss Muffet.
- [Murph] Nice.
- [Ally] Nice.
- [Murph] Yeah, we gotta just-
- [Emily] Yeah, we gotta go after her.
- Hell yeah, now, do you have a help?
'Cause from prone you have
disadvantage on attack rolls.
- But it's Faerie Fire so it's advantage.
- Yeah, so it's a straight roll.
- Okay, but I have this
help action, but I can't...
- [Ally] No, but you can use
the help action to get up.
- But standing up is my action, correct?
- If all Pinocchi-Crow is
doing is blocking those spiders
from getting to you,
Pinocchi-Crow could attempt
to use an action to get you up
out of a restrained condition.
- Pinocchi-Crow is gonna
do what he does best,
peck at some damn webs.
- Give me an attack.
- Okay.
Come on, f*cking Pinocchi-Crow.
That is gonna be a 16 from Pinocchi-Crow.
- Give me the piercing damage.
- Come on, Pinocchi-Crow.
What's he gotta beat?
- It's gonna be five.
- He needs to beat two.
f*ck!
- Oh, why?
- Four points of pecking damage.
- Four points of pecking damage,
not enough to get through the webs.
You can roll your Eldritch Blast straight.
- [Emily] It's still flat, though.
That's good. That's what we normally get.
- It's still flat. It's still flat.
- You could crit and then
it would all be over.
- [Emily] Yeah!
- Oh my God, if you just crit there now.
- Come on, Pinocchio, please!
- Come on, Pinocchio.
- This is plus six.
- 21 hits.
- [Ally] Nice.
- [Emily] Yes!
- Go ahead and roll damage.
- I'm gonna throw up, dude.
That's six points of damage.
- Six points of damage.
- I'll take any damage.
- The spell flies from your hand.
This is your first time we're
seeing your Eldritch blast.
What does it look like?
- It's visions of my strings
that go through the air
and wrap around Miss Muffet.
- Did Pinocchio just throw webs? [laughs]
[Emily laughing]
- No.
- Everyone's a f*cking spider,
is that what you're telling me?
- I'm not a spider!
- Pinocchio, you fire your spell.
[Brennan mimics spell impact and screams]
Once against seeing Muffet damaged.
Muffet is going to take, once again,
three attacks against Ylfa.
- You know you don't wanna do this.
Do you know what goes really
good with curds and why?
A little maple syrup.
Grandma taught me that.
- First attack is going to be
- Okay.
- And then the next
attack is just gonna be 10
halved to five slashing.
- Yes!
- This time you see
she actually bites you.
So her little girl face comes down
and two spider mandibles squish out
from behind these pearly,
white teeth and... [chomps]
- Hey, I'll trade bites in
the name of girl bonding.
- [laughs] Are you still in spider form?
- [Emily] Yeah.
- God, that's so beefy!
[Emily laughing]
Unbelievable!
- [Murph] So good.
- She's gonna kick the web again.
This time only Gerard
needs to make a save.
- [Murph] Great.
- [Lou] You've got it, Gerard.
- [Siobhan] You got it, Gerard.
- Famously good at rolling.
- Do you have a bardic?
- No.
- Okay.
- Oh.
- [Emily] Ooh!
- 18.
- You succeed!
You boing, bounce very
hippity-hoppity with the web moving.
- Right.
- And now the babies
are going to close in, one, two, three,
four, five, six, seven.
Seven attacks.
- I'm done with these.
I'm done with the spiders.
- [Emily] AC is 17.
[dice rattling]
- [Murph] Ylfa, you f*cking beast.
- The fact that I haven't
rolled a nat 20 is insane. Okay.
- The fact that I haven't
rolled a nat 20 is insane. Okay.
- Now you know how we feel.
We also have not rolled a nat 20.
- Do you know that I have
a plus five to constitution
and failed all four of those?
- Go ahead and start rolling me
five constitution saving throws, Ylfa.
- [Siobhan] Ay-yi-yi. - Yeah, you
want some dice? Start using mine.
- I can't believe Rick Perry had time
to make all these spiders
with all the chicken tandoori he's making.
[Siobhan laughing]
- [Emily] Ah, that's a
fail. That's also a fail.
- [Murph] These are retired.
Use these.
[Emily laughing]
- [Emily] That's a pass! Okay,
I'm using Murph's dice now.
That's also a pass!
- [Ally] Nice.
- [Siobhan] Wow, Murph's dice it is.
- [Emily] So two fails.
- [Brennan] Pinocchi-Crow,
that's one hit on Pinocchi-Crow.
- Okay.
- So let's resolve the easy one first.
Give me, Pinocchi-Crow
takes six piercing damage.
- Halved to three. Pinocchi-Crow vanishes.
[crow cawing]
- [Zac] No!
- [Brennan] Then they use
their movement to close in
on the prone Pinocchio.
- Where did f*cking Pinocchi-Crow go?
- So how many did you fail
and how many did you succeed?
- I only failed two.
- Only failed two.
So we'll do the ones you failed first.
- [Murph] Oh boy.
- Okay.
- And I'm halving your piercing damage
so don't worry about that.
- [Emily] Okay.
[ominous music]
- 11 damage on the first attack.
- Okay, I [bones cracking]
become Ylfa again.
- Give me the dex save as you-
- [Zac] Oh, yeah, yeah.
- Drop out of this form.
[ominous music continues]
[die taps table]
- Nat one.
- [Murph] God damn!
- You go prone and restrained.
- Prone and restrained, damn.
- [Brennan] You've marked your hit points?
- Yeah.
- They get through your other form.
This is the next one that you failed.
- Uh-huh.
- Which is going to be...
[whispered] Two and seven.
Nine points of damage on that next attack.
- Okay.
[tense music]
- And then there's three
where you succeeded, right?
- Yeah, was I supposed
to do more than that?
- [Brennan] Yeah, there
was one more attack.
- I failed the other one.
- Here comes the next
one. That's gonna be-
- [Lou] Spiders be jumping.
- Eight points of damage on that one.
- Okay, and then that, I have to do...
That's half my hit points.
- Okay, go ahead and give
me a con save, DC 10.
- I got a 10 on the dice!
- [Brennan] Hell yeah, there you go.
- That's maybe my first
double digits of the day.
- [Ally] Oh my God.
- [Siobhan] Oy.
- Okay, you made that save.
Now there's two attacks
coming in where you succeeded.
- Yeah.
- Wow, okay. Three points of
damage on that next attack.
- That's halved?
- That's already halved.
Does that prompt another saving throw?
- Yes, it does.
- [Brennan] Okay.
- 13.
- Okay, last one.
That's eight points of damage.
- I'm down.
[energy powering down]
- [Brennan] Boom.
- [Emily] f*ck.
- Ylfa goes down.
However, that is the end of the
little infant spiders' turn.
Rosamund, another death save.
[chime rings]
- It's a pass.
- That's a success.
Pib, you are restrained.
- Who's within 30 feet to
get a help action from me?
I can't really tell.
- [Brennan] Mother Goose
and I think let's see-
- And I'm gonna need to get up and-
- [Murph] Pinocchio's gonna need it.
- Oh yeah, Pinocchio.
- I'll give Pinocchio the help action.
- [Brennan] Cool.
- And I'm just gonna wait.
- Okay, you give Pinocchio the help action
and you ready an action for
someone threatens Muffet
to get your attack.
Let me get a death save from Ylfa.
- Okay.
[die taps table]
Nat 20. No, 17. I did pass.
- [Brennan] Pass, hell yeah.
- Where were you?
[Siobhan laughing]
Where were you?
- I would like to use my action
to get up out of restrained.
- Out of restrained. You got it.
You can either attack the webbing
or you can give me a strength check.
- I'll have to do a strength.
- Here's the strength check.
- Five?
- You do not get up.
You have a bonus action.
- Then I will bonus action
Healing Word to Ylfa.
- Hell yeah, go for it.
- Nice!
Okay, d4 plus my
spellcasting ability modifier
so that's eight.
- [Brennan] Eight hit points.
[Emily inhales deeply]
Ylfa, you start prone
on your back, and because
you are threatening
you may immediately attack,
it's a straight roll.
- Straight roll.
- Can I write something
more about the spider?
Did I get any new insight?
- Yeah, I'll let you start,
but we'll resolve it in a minute.
- Come on, come on, come on.
- Come on, come on, come on.
- Nat 20.
- Yes, yes!
[cast cheering with relief]
- Yes!
Oh, oh, and it's with
these Dark Soul dice.
- Yes, yes!
- [Siobhan] Yes!
At last, my God.
- [Emily] Oh!
- I'm gonna throw up.
[cast laughing]
- [Ally] I'm gonna throw up.
- All right, so that's
- Come on, come on.
- 25 damage.
- Yes!
- Okay, so to see the death blow mechanic,
we immediately are gonna roll a save here.
This is a death blow save.
- [Ally] Damn it.
- You did 25 halved. That's
actually higher than 10.
That's 12. If she rolls a six
or below she's instantly dead.
That's 12. If she rolls a six
or below she's instantly dead.
[tense music]
[Siobhan exhales softly]
Six or below, instant death.
[tense music intensifies]
[die taps Box of Doom]
- Well...
- Okay.
- Makes the save for
the death blow mechanic,
but I wrote down how many
hit points she had left
and it was 15. [laughs]
[cast cheering]
- Oh my God!
- Oh my good God.
- She's been dead this whole time.
- So Mother Goose, you
write in this last book.
Peering behind, you look and
see this little girl turns
Peering behind, you look and
see this little girl turns
to look at you and you
suddenly have a memory
of this new life of yours.
You remember there was a little girl.
She was always very lonely.
She would walk over the top
of this big hill under a tree
and often eat meals by herself.
She had a little stool she
would bring up with her,
a cushion to sit on.
Very timid, very shy.
Suddenly, Little Miss
Muffet sat on a tuffet.
- Curds and whey!
- [laughs] With that spell,
[mimics magic whipping]
Healing Word, Ylfa you snarl up,
and just you being awake and alive
to grab one of those spider
feet, Muffet goes off balance.
Pib, was does it look
like as you finish it?
- I'm sorry, little girl.
[cast laughing]
Feels bad.
- Your knife does not find
that sickening spider body.
You see another opportunity,
a crack in story.
You [mimics wind slicing] shear something
and hear almost a page being sheared.
As your dagger disappears
into time and space,
light fills the cavern.
[mimics magic reverberating]
And as it fills the cavern,
you see a new form appears.
- [Siobhan] Goldilocks.
- [laughs] It's Goldilocks.
And you see-
- [Ally] Little Miss Muffet.
- It's Little Miss Muffet with a-
- [Emily] Does she have a spider face?
- [Brennan] She has a spider face.
- [Ally] Cute.
- [Emily] Aw.
- And as sort of like,
thing that we realized
was this spider sort
of monstrous carapace,
as that falls away and thuds
into the web, retreating,
dying, you see this little
girl land and go, [gasps]
and immediately take a little dollop
of curds and whey out of her bowl
and throw it on Rosamund
for one hit point.
[Siobhan grunts]
- [Ally] Yes.
[Siobhan groans]
[Emily laughs]
- She looks at all of you and goes,
Oh, I'm not a spider anymore.
- You're kind of a spider.
- Oh no.
I feel like I was hurting
some of you. I'm so sorry.
- Oh, I mean...
- No, we're good.
- Are you okay?
- I think so, I'm trying...
I don't...
Are we in a giant web?
- Yes, and we are in your web, I believe.
- I'm scared of spiders!
- Aw.
- Oh gosh, that's hard.
You are a spider.
- What?
- You're a little bit of a spider still.
- You see that she says like,
Yeah, when I would go up there to eat,
I think one day a spider came down
and it scared me really bad.
And I just, I wanted to get
away as fast as I could,
but something strange happened after that.
Mother Goose, you feel the
end of the end rhyme coming
for you to transcribe here.
I'm gonna sort of leave it to
you as you look at your friends
and you look around.
You see this, very similar to Ylfa,
this like, scared monstrous kid.
There's a world right now where
you could finish this rhyme
and sort of put Little
Miss Muffet into the book
and sort of put Little
Miss Muffet into the book
and kind of just like, seal her away,
but you see that you
sort of feel the weird
kind of spider form that
no longer has this like,
little girl captured in it, so to speak.
And you almost feel
like you could seal that in
the book if you wanted to.
Something about that
final attack from Pib,
you kind of see these
weird cracks of reality,
sort of remnants of your Shatter spell.
And you feel like you can either
bring Little Miss Muffet into that
or you could take that
sort of spider monstrosity
and seal that in the book.
- Probably the spider part.
- Yeah.
- [Murph] I think that's what the
other team needs, yeah. - Because
that's what Scheherazade needs.
- Yeah, so I write the spider story.
- [Zac] Get rid of the little girl.
- Along came a spider
and sat down beside her
and frightened Miss Muffet away.
And you see, [mimics
wind rustling] that form
[mimics wind rushing]
vanishes into the book.
There's a momentary breath
and then you hear scritching
from in Scheherazade's
flowing script you see,
Got it, you're a champ, thank you so much.
We'll holler back as soon
as we're out of here.
- Whoa, cool. Is Miss
Muffet still with us?
- And you see Little Miss Muffet is there,
but looks at her story in
the book and sees it glowing.
but looks at her story in
the book and sees it glowing.
And she sort of walks up and
holds up a hand and says,
Can I touch it?
- [Murph] Uh, mm...
- Uh...
- If I were in her shoes, I'd want to.
- And they don't get sucked
in immediately, right?
- [Murph] Yes.
- Sometimes it's just
like, horrifying sh*t.
Does this look like what you...
Are there any, like, illustrations of her?
- There don't appear to be
any illustrations of her.
- [whisper] She might not
have to be a spider anymore
if she touches it.
- I think I say, we're
gonna, you know what?
We're gonna wait on the book a little bit,
but you and Ylfa could play with...
And I have like a string
that's kinda like the cat's cradle thing.
I don't know if you guys wanna like...
- I immediately just shred
it apart. [laughs] Whoops.
- You see, Ylfa, you
look over and see Muffet
looks like a little heartbroken
to be told by the adults
here to not touch the book.
Oh, okay....
- Let her touch the book.
- I, well, okay...
You can definitely touch
the book if you want to,
but sometimes you'll
see really scary things.
And as I'm saying this
out loud I'm realizing,
you maybe just saw the scariest
stuff you're ever gonna see
in your whole life 'cause
you were in a big spider,
and the spider was full of cottage cheese,
so yeah, if you want to touch the book...
- You see she reaches up
a hand, touches the book.
And I think as she does so,
all of you here have
this moment of watching.
You've all changed
pretty monstrously, too.
And I think some of you
have even had conversations,
especially like Rosamund,
the conversation you had
with Cinderella about like,
do these stories belong to us or not?
And you see she touches the book
and you see the illustration appears.
And the illustration
appears of her running away
from a spider on a hill
and her bowl sort of falling to the side.
And it's just like a
little spider coming down.
And she looks at it, and you
see a door start to open up,
golden light in the book.
And then she looks, and you
see Muffet takes a second
of looking like, [gasps]
like oh, I could get
out of this nasty cave
with this terrible spiderweb.
But she stops for a second.
She goes, Am I always
supposed to be scared?
- No.
- She keeps a hand on the book
but looks and you and says,
Who are you guys?
- We're people who are
also in this scary time,
but we believe that it doesn't
always have to be so scary.
- And sometimes I think
you have to be a little
bit scary in scary times.
- She looks at the illustration,
and I think again, Ylfa,
you look at and just see her
looking and see her going like,
Oh, in this illustration I
don't have a spider head,
but I'm still running from a spider.
She looks at it and goes,
So you just, you go around helping people?
- Yeah.
- We're more survivors.
- We try to, but yeah.
- And sometimes that means
teaming up, being friends.
- We're all kind of versions of ourselves
that we weren't a couple days ago
that are scary to us as well.
- I m*rder*d a woossman.
Woods, woodsman, sorry.
[coughs] Some spiderweb.
- I think a lot of the people in Tuffeton
are in cocoons and I spun them up.
- Okay, maybe we can kinda
get them out of there.
- [Zac] Chop 'em down or whatever.
- Are there any bears?
- When you say bears, her eyes go wide.
She says, I've seen bears.
- Of course you have.
[Brennan and Emily laughing]
- She looks at her hand, takes
a look at the golden door
to go into the book as you've written it.
And you see that she just
goes, You guys saved me.
And you see that she just
goes, You guys saved me.
And she takes her hand off and goes,
I want to help you guys.
- [Ally] Oh, great.
- All right.
- You're welcome to help us.
We definitely need help.
- Do you need anything made out of silk?
- Oh my goodness, I thought
you would never ask.
- And that's where we're
gonna end this episode
of "Dimension 20: Neverafter."
Tune in next week as we continue
into the lands of the
times of shadow, farewell!
- Well, let's like, head to town.
We'll probably be welcomed as heroes.
It'll be a good-a*s time.
- [Siobhan] Curds and whey
for everybody.
- [Murph] Hear, hear.
[ominous music]
[wind roars]
- Oh, still rain.
- Not again.
- [Brennan] Still rain.
- Oh, wow.
- Damn.
- Most curious.
- Oh wait, I don't think we've
introduced this mechanic.
- [Brennan] At any cost!
- Okay, okay!
[cast shouting]
- Okay, everybody-
[Brennan shrieking]
- We're off. [shouts]
- It was a joke, Brennan.
- Deep in your hearts,
do you feel that you are-
- Mm, damn.
- Ooh.
- Some sort of doorway to another world.
- I don't know that I want that.
- Oh.
- Oh.
- If they're horrible, we'll k*ll them.
- Ooh, watch out.
- Ooh.
- Are they all dead?
- Oh no.
- How did they know?
[Brennan moans agonizingly]
- [Brennan] You watch.
- What, excuse me? What, is this real?
- I slam the book.
[cast laughing]
- Oh no!
- Oh no!
- f*ck, dude.
- Oh!
- Yes!
- Yes!
[cast cheering]
- What?
- Is that gonna work?
- What are we doing?
- Hey, shut up.
- [Siobhan] Deep darkness.
- I think it's important
that we're honest about this.
- Everything that's
happening is very scary,
but I think that maybe
these are the people
that we need to be to
survive in this world.
