00:00:04Mike:There we go.

00:00:48Josh:Well, well, well.

00:00:49Mike:Hello.

00:00:52Josh:Who do we have here?

00:00:56Mike:Me and Craig.

00:00:59Josh:Craig is a beaver.

00:01:04Mike:They told you?

00:01:04Mike:They replied to you?

00:01:05Josh:Yeah.

00:01:10Josh:No, I didn't actually check.

00:01:12Josh:I've decided.

00:01:14Mike:Oh, I thought you DM'd them or something.

00:01:15Josh:I really should.

00:01:18Josh:Let me go to the support server.

00:01:20Josh:Let's do that now.

00:01:21Josh:I got time.

00:01:26Josh:Joined Craig.

00:01:40Josh:I have to read his stuff.

00:01:52Mike:So can you join, ask what animal he is, and then when they reply, say thanks, and then leave the server?

00:01:59Josh:Well, I just asked.

00:02:01Josh:So we'll see.

00:02:03Josh:Is it in the rules and info?

00:02:05Josh:Should I have read the rules and info?

00:02:13Mike:I think it would be very funny if... Like, could you imagine if you ran some sort of an open source thing, and then someone joined, asked what animal the mascot was, you answered, and then they said thank you and left?

00:02:26Mike:It's very funny in my head.

00:02:26Josh:The name of the creator, I'm looking at the website right now, their username is YaWeasel, so it's possible Craig is a weasel.

00:02:35Mike:Oh.

00:02:40Mike:It would be very fitting with...

00:02:42Mike:He literally gave into a racial stereotype just immediately.

00:02:44Josh:Yeah.

00:02:47Josh:I guess.

00:02:48Josh:Are weasels known to listen to things?

00:02:51Josh:I just agreed to you without really thinking, and now I think I regret that.

00:02:55Jorge:What do you agree to?

00:02:58Josh:I did.

00:03:02Josh:Yeah, I wasn't paying attention.

00:03:04Josh:Mike said something racist, and I just kind of nodded along and said, yeah, that sounds right.

00:03:10Josh:And then I heard the words coming out of my mouth, and I'm like, no, weasels aren't known for listening to people.

00:03:16Josh:What are you talking about?

00:03:17Josh:No.

00:03:18Mike:Thank you.

00:03:20Jorge:I assumed it was just some Pathfinder racism, but then when you said weasels, I was like, well,

00:03:26Jorge:I don't know why I expected this.

00:03:29Josh:What do you mean?

00:03:30Jorge:I don't know why Path Builder just doesn't like applying the highest APV stat.

00:03:34Tanner:Thank you.

00:03:38Jorge:If I have a plus two, both the plus two don't active plus twos.

00:03:43Jorge:It's below one.

00:03:44Jorge:But if I have a plus three, it doesn't apply the plus three unless I uncheck it and recheck it.

00:03:50Josh:What?

00:03:51Josh:Where are you getting these plus twos and plus threes from?

00:03:53Josh:I...

00:03:53Jorge:The APVs.

00:03:56Mike:APB.

00:03:57Josh:Yeah, no, I understand.

00:03:59Josh:But what do you mean?

00:04:02Mike:The APB.

00:04:03Josh:I get it.

00:04:05Josh:APB.

00:04:05Jorge:Yeah.

00:04:07Tanner:Like at certain levels, you get to add bonuses to skills.

00:04:11Josh:No, I know what APB is.

00:04:15Jorge:I'm confused what you're.

00:04:15Mike:Mm-hmm.

00:04:16Mike:It stands for Automatic Bonus Protection.

00:04:18Tanner:Right.

00:04:19Tanner:Right.

00:04:19Tanner:So if you understand that, you understand the problem that Jorge is having.

00:04:19Josh:Okay.

00:04:23Josh:I don't, though.

00:04:25Josh:What are you doing that's changing the modifier?

00:04:25Jorge:OK.

00:04:29Jorge:So let me show you something.

00:04:31Jorge:I will screencast.

00:04:34Josh:Okay.

00:04:34Jorge:Hello.

00:04:36Tanner:APB.

00:04:37Josh:APB.

00:04:37Mike:Mm-hmm.

00:04:40Jorge:So you see this.

00:04:42Josh:One second.

00:04:48Josh:Um... Okay, I'm watching.

00:04:50Josh:Yes.

00:04:51Jorge:So I just clicked this from that link I sent you for my character sheet a while ago.

00:04:56Josh:Okay.

00:04:56Jorge:See how it says 36 and 36?

00:04:57Jorge:It's just applying the plus 2 and the plus 1, right?

00:04:58Josh:I do.

00:04:58Tanner:Thank you.

00:04:59Josh:Before you do anything, click on the one that's 36.

00:05:02Josh:Click on one of them.

00:05:03Josh:I just want to see what it's doing.

00:05:08Josh:I don't know if it's doing... Why does it have both?

00:05:13Mike:Is there a prerequisite?

00:05:13Jorge:I don't think they stack, but they have it because you need one.

00:05:15Josh:They don't stack.

00:05:16Josh:Okay.

00:05:17Josh:Right, they shouldn't be stacking.

00:05:17Jorge:So you see the first APV plus three.

00:05:22Josh:Yes.

00:05:23Jorge:So this is 26 and 26.

00:05:24Jorge:This is selected to be deception.

00:05:27Jorge:If I change this to diplomacy, save to local, now my diplomacy is plus 37.

00:05:35Jorge:And if I change this back, it's plus 37 on deception.

00:05:36Josh:Those are both correct.

00:05:41Jorge:And now when I click it,

00:05:43Josh:It was when you first booted it up it wasn't correct then.

00:05:46Jorge:Yes, but then when I save this, it's just not consistent.

00:05:47Josh:Okay.

00:05:53Jorge:And then when I share this, and then a lot of the times if I send that to you, it just straight up will then reload it as the 36s.

00:06:01Tanner:Thank you.

00:06:05Josh:Nice.

00:06:06Jorge:So what's annoying is when the highest is plus 2 and I have multiple plus 2s,

00:06:12Josh:If you click on both deception and diplomacy right now, is it just missing that APB entirely for either of them?

00:06:13Jorge:That's why a couple of times when you're like, why are you doing this?

00:06:15Jorge:You should have one.

00:06:16Jorge:I'm like, it's wrong in Path Builder because I've been dealing with this.

00:06:19Jorge:And I thought it was something to do with the plus two stacking.

00:06:22Jorge:But the second we got to plus three stacking, it just punted the problem only to the threes.

00:06:33Josh:Okay, so that's not there.

00:06:34Josh:And then if you do deception...

00:06:35Jorge:Yeah.

00:06:36Jorge:Yeah, because it's on 38.

00:06:38Jorge:And then if I do this, yeah.

00:06:39Josh:Yeah, but if you click, if you, stop, click deception, I just want to see.

00:06:42Josh:Okay, yeah, it's missing from both.

00:06:43Jorge:Yeah, it's just not – you just will not apply it.

00:06:46Jorge:And then I can apply it locally, but then I just can't send it to you.

00:06:46Josh:That's weird.

00:06:51Josh:Huh.

00:06:52Jorge:It's really annoying.

00:06:53Josh:It hates you.

00:06:54Josh:That's fine.

00:06:54Jorge:Yeah.

00:06:56Josh:That's good.

00:06:57Jorge:And I know that's why it sounded so ridiculous that you're like, I don't understand what's wrong.

00:07:00Jorge:Like, the APB is not applying.

00:07:02Josh:Yeah, I just didn't understand what the problem was.

00:07:05Josh:And the problem is Pathbuilder just doesn't think you deserve a third APB.

00:07:13Josh:Or a fifth, or whatever it is.

00:07:15Tanner:The problem is APB.

00:07:15Josh:Which I get.

00:07:17Tanner:I've also, it doesn't stack very well with item bonuses or something like that.

00:07:21Josh:So there are two rule sets you can do with APB.

00:07:27Josh:The first is that item bonuses straight up don't apply.

00:07:30Josh:And the second is that they do, but you can't do additional potency runes on items.

00:07:31Tanner:Hmm.

00:07:36Josh:We do the second way in that I don't let you get a plus three sword and then it's a plus three sword plus you get the three bonus from APB because that just breaks the math entirely and you guys are already ridiculously strong.

00:07:49Josh:But I do let you use item bonuses in general.

00:07:52Josh:That's fine.

00:07:53Josh:And I think Pathbuilder, for some reason, has hard-coded potency to be the same slot as item bonus.

00:08:01Tanner:Yeah.

00:08:02Josh:So they just don't stack.

00:08:04Josh:Even though that's not correct.

00:08:06Josh:I don't think many people play using the rule that we're using like this, though.

00:08:10Josh:So it's just not been something that they've tried to fix.

00:08:13Josh:If I recall correctly, actually...

00:08:19Josh:and no should be two different things and should stack and they said no on path builder yes you like two and a half years ago

00:08:23Noah:Me?

00:08:26Noah:Yes.

00:08:27Noah:Yes, I did.

00:08:28Noah:And they were like, no, it's the same thing.

00:08:29Noah:And I was like, I mean, okay, I guess.

00:08:33Josh:Yeah, so that's just an issue we have to deal with.

00:08:37Josh:But that is a good call out, Jorge, I guess, for all of you.

00:08:40Josh:Make sure that your APBs are correct for your plus three in Path Builder, just if you're rolling out of Path Builder to make sure that those values are right.

00:08:48Jorge:And you could, yeah.

00:08:50Josh:Noah, what you missed is Jorge for his level 17 plus three APB.

00:08:55Josh:He can set it in Path Builder, but when he saves it and shares it, Path Builder just removes it.

00:09:00Josh:It's not on the sheet anymore.

00:09:03Josh:So I would double-check whichever thing you expect to have plus three to actually have plus three.

00:09:08Jorge:Yeah, and you could check by either just unselecting that one and changing whatever's selected for the plus three or clicking on it and it shouldn't say plus three.

00:09:15Jorge:It should just say plus one and plus two.

00:09:17Josh:It's not really an issue specifically for Noah anyway, because Noah's using Homebrew and Pathbuilder says it's compatible with Homebrew, but what it actually means is you can use Homebrew locally, but if you share it with somebody, if somebody else tries to open it, it'll just spin endlessly on the loading screen forever.

00:09:17Tanner:you

00:09:35Josh:which is good.

00:09:37Josh:So he's been sending me the JSON document printout every level up, and I've just been storing them and then git diffing between the two to try and figure out what the changes are.

00:09:49Josh:And that's been fine.

00:09:52Mike:Are we sure the character is not so complexly written that it's doing some sort of injection to just have the infinite and just...

00:09:52Josh:So...

00:10:02Josh:I mean, maybe.

00:10:04Josh:How complex do you feel your character is, Noah?

00:10:07Noah:Like a three out of five.

00:10:12Josh:I will say, as annoying as it was to get Jorge's thaumaturge stuff all working with the different auras and all of that kind of stuff, it was relatively straightforward.

00:10:27Josh:Your specific Magitek, like, changing how existing effects work differently is so much harder to get working.

00:10:38Josh:I don't know why they did it in that way, but it's fine.

00:10:41Josh:It all works now.

00:10:43Josh:Um, yeah.

00:10:43Noah:Thank you, Josh.

00:10:46Josh:Noah's character, his subclass makes it so that an effect that normally works on melee strikes instead works on spell attacks that only target one enemy, deal damage, and do not have a duration.

00:11:01Josh:Um...

00:11:02Josh:And there's no way in Foundry to just go into an effect and say, sorry, when I said melee attack roll, what I actually meant was this specific whatever.

00:11:14Josh:So you have a whole second clone of all of the thaumaturge effects that just modified the targets of what they're supposed to hit.

00:11:25Josh:And it's fine.

00:11:26Josh:It all works now.

00:11:27Josh:It's great.

00:11:29Josh:That's two down.

00:11:30Josh:You too.

00:11:33Josh:Tanner and Mike, do either of you have issues with how your character is set up in Foundry, where there are effects that you need to manually add because they're not being tracked, or there are modifiers that are being dropped or something like that?

00:11:47Josh:If you don't have something off the top of your head now, just think about it in general.

00:11:52Tanner:Yeah, my mods are usually good.

00:11:53Josh:Because I, you know...

00:11:57Tanner:Something I had went in and had to hard code, I guess, was with my heavy armor mastery, I get resistance to slashing.

00:12:09Josh:No.

00:12:10Tanner:And it's supposed to be 2 plus the potency rune of the armor.

00:12:15Tanner:And Foundry just calls it 2.

00:12:19Tanner:So I had just manually put it up to 4.

00:12:22Tanner:Yeah.

00:12:22Josh:Okay.

00:12:24Josh:It's okay now, though.

00:12:25Josh:It's just, once we get to, like, level 19, when your defense pops up again, I'll have to... I did the level 18 update.

00:12:27Tanner:Unless that would have gotten flushed by the... Did you do the level 18 update?

00:12:36Tanner:Would that have flushed anything, or you just add the new feats?

00:12:36Josh:Let me...

00:12:39Josh:Let me check to see if it did anything.

00:12:45Josh:Oh.

00:12:45Noah:Hey, Jorge, happy birthday.

00:12:47Jorge:Thank you.

00:12:48Jorge:I was responding to all those texts right now.

00:12:49Tanner:Oh my god.

00:12:51Josh:You're old?

00:12:52Jorge:Yeah.

00:12:53Josh:What are you doing that for?

00:12:54Josh:Happy birthday.

00:12:55Tanner:Yeah.

00:12:55Jorge:Yeah.

00:12:57Tanner:Wow.

00:12:58Tanner:Happy birthday.

00:12:58Tanner:How exciting.

00:13:00Mike:Happy birthday.

00:13:00Jorge:Josh, wait.

00:13:01Mike:Happy belated birthday.

00:13:01Jorge:Josh, when was yours again?

00:13:02Jorge:It's in January, right?

00:13:04Josh:Yeah.

00:13:05Jorge:When was it?

00:13:06Josh:The 15th.

00:13:08Jorge:Happy belated birthday.

00:13:10Tanner:Yeah.

00:13:10Josh:Thanks.

00:13:11Noah:Happy birthday.

00:13:11Josh:I don't really celebrate my birthday, so it's fine.

00:13:14Jorge:Yeah, so the problem is I don't have you on any socials, which normally remind me.

00:13:19Josh:I don't have any socials.

00:13:19Jorge:Because even LinkedIn reminds me, but it just doesn't for you.

00:13:22Noah:I have Jordan's birthday hard-coded in my actual personal calendar because in college he refused to tell me when his birthday was and I found out one time.

00:13:27Josh:Nice.

00:13:31Tanner:We can.

00:13:36Mike:I just like the passage of time, so I don't like thinking about birthdays.

00:13:39Josh:Oh.

00:13:40Josh:Like at all?

00:13:41Josh:For anybody?

00:13:44Josh:That doesn't sound like a particularly healthy mindset.

00:13:48Mike:I don't know how old I am.

00:13:51Josh:I mean, I'm fairly confident I know how old you are.

00:13:53Josh:I won't tell you.

00:13:53Tanner:Yeah.

00:13:54Mike:Oh, no.

00:13:57Josh:Don't worry.

00:13:58Mike:Ask me in a month.

00:14:01Josh:No.

00:14:04Josh:Oh, defense potency is at 18.

00:14:06Noah:Wow.

00:14:07Josh:Shit, did all of your ACs get higher?

00:14:11Tanner:Oh, wait, did we go up to three?

00:14:12Josh:That's illegal.

00:14:14Josh:You went up to 3.

00:14:15Tanner:Oh.

00:14:16Josh:Yeah, I'm gonna bump up your slashing resistance.

00:14:19Tanner:That gives me resistance five.

00:14:22Josh:Yeah.

00:14:23Tanner:And is my wisdom still bumped from the apex thing?

00:14:27Josh:Your wisdom is still plus 6.

00:14:28Josh:Is it supposed to be plus 6?

00:14:29Tanner:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's good, yeah.

00:14:31Josh:Okay.

00:14:32Noah:That's a wise dude.

00:14:35Josh:His strength is plus 8.

00:14:37Josh:So... Very strong.

00:14:37Noah:The strong, wise leader.

00:14:41Tanner:I'm actually not sure how that happened, but it is, yeah.

00:14:45Josh:Well, so... Don's... Yeah, Don's intelligence is plus 8.

00:14:46Tanner:Oh, from our hearts.

00:14:51Josh:Divex's intelligence is plus 8.

00:14:54Josh:And Lev's charisma is plus 8.

00:14:56Josh:You all have one plus 8 stat, where you are all very something.

00:15:02Josh:But they're two smart people.

00:15:04Josh:And there are no particularly burly people, I suppose.

00:15:10Josh:Nobody has a plus eight in Constitution.

00:15:12Tanner:no i will say i'm at 296 hit points pretty good oh oh guys next level things are taking a turn

00:15:13Noah:That would be too many hit points.

00:15:14Noah:A lot of hit points.

00:15:15Mike:Be a bit overkill.

00:15:21Josh:That's close.

00:15:24Josh:You almost hit 300.

00:15:25Josh:And everybody knows what happens when you hit 300 hit points.

00:15:28Noah:You die.

00:15:29Josh:I was going to say you become the DM.

00:15:32Noah:Oh.

00:15:33Josh:Yeah.

00:15:36Jorge:No, no, but Mike's in the narrative.

00:15:36Josh:Oh no.

00:15:38Mike:Wait, somehow...

00:15:40Mike:Somehow when Henrik hits 300 hit points, he becomes more powerful than me?

00:15:50Josh:I think he's already more powerful than you.

00:15:53Mike:No, no.

00:15:54Mike:I'm a member of the narrative.

00:15:56Mike:So he becomes the DM, which supersedes the narrative.

00:15:59Josh:You're a member of the narrative, but you're controlled by Jorge.

00:16:05Mike:Oh, right.

00:16:05Mike:Okay.

00:16:06Jorge:No, you're controlled by Lev.

00:16:06Mike:I forgot about that.

00:16:07Josh:Jorge's new character is Mike, the member of the narrative.

00:16:07Jorge:Jorge's new character.

00:16:08Jorge:Jorge's new character is going to be... Yep.

00:16:16Josh:He's already sent me his character sheet and everything.

00:16:18Josh:It's just that one gif of Ron Swanson from Parks and Rec with the slip that says, I can do what I want.

00:16:26Josh:And that's it.

00:16:26Josh:That's the whole thing.

00:16:28Noah:I still...

00:16:28Jorge:And underneath it, there's a gif of Remy from Ratatouille piloting a human, and it's Mike that I photoshopped on there.

00:16:37Jorge:By the way, so I had a little extra money.

00:16:38Josh:Yeah, sure.

00:16:48Mike:Yeah.

00:16:49Jorge:Did you guys, did anyone buy anything for revivification or something like that?

00:16:56Jorge:Because I kept a little bit of extra money.

00:16:58Noah:I still have the Clockwork Rejuvenator, and I think I can actually make more now at this level.

00:17:03Noah:And we have that Celestial Peach.

00:17:04Jorge:How much is the

00:17:07Jorge:Clockwork rejuvenator.

00:17:10Noah:That is an excellent question.

00:17:12Josh:I think you can do it in one or two, something stupid.

00:17:14Noah:I feel like it's not that much.

00:17:16Jorge:Couple of gram.

00:17:17Mike:I thought it was like 18,000, but maybe I'm wrong.

00:17:20Noah:It is $4,500.

00:17:22Noah:That's pretty cheap.

00:17:22Mike:I'm wrong.

00:17:23Noah:I think if I make it, it's half that cost.

00:17:27Jorge:I think if you have to make it for like an amount of days, right?

00:17:34Noah:Thank you.

00:17:36Jorge:But.

00:17:37Jorge:But to get it cheaper than half, I think he has to do it multiple days.

00:17:39Jorge:20 gold at a time.

00:17:39Josh:Oh, yeah, no, it'll take a long time if you want it to be... No, it's full cost if you want it in, like, one or two days.

00:17:46Josh:You can reduce it up to half the cost by putting days of work into it, but you cut off, like, 10 to 20 gold pieces a day.

00:17:56Josh:Yeah.

00:17:57Josh:Unless they've changed how crafting works since I last looked at it, it's, like, not worth it for higher-level items.

00:18:06Josh:Like, you spend a year to get half off of one item.

00:18:10Noah:That's not worth it.

00:18:10Jorge:Yeah.

00:18:12Jorge:So how much is that?

00:18:14Jorge:Okay.

00:18:16Noah:It's $4,500.

00:18:17Noah:Oh.

00:18:20Jorge:So for three grand, I can buy... Oh, I don't think we're still 19th.

00:18:29Jorge:I could buy Raise Dead, the scroll.

00:18:34Jorge:But that will only work for next level.

00:18:36Jorge:It won't work for level 20.

00:18:38Jorge:So maybe just do clockwork.

00:18:39Jorge:At 10th level, scroll is 8K.

00:18:44Tanner:And the clockwork thing works on any level?

00:18:44Noah:Can Henrik bring people back from the dead yet?

00:18:45Josh:Oh.

00:18:52Noah:Is that a thing?

00:18:53Tanner:Yeah, but it's very limited.

00:18:58Tanner:Give me just a moment.

00:19:00Tanner:I can resuscitate a creature that has been dead for no more than three rounds.

00:19:02Noah:Oh.

00:19:07Noah:So if the creature is you, that's not good.

00:19:10Mike:We have to stick the peach in his mouth.

00:19:11Tanner:I cannot resuscitate myself.

00:19:16Tanner:It also says that the body has to be mostly intact, which is, you know, up to the dungeon master's discretion.

00:19:25Tanner:Probably need a heart and a brain.

00:19:28Tanner:I can't make those.

00:19:30Josh:You are, I mean, maybe, who knows?

00:19:31Noah:I am, yes.

00:19:33Josh:You are legendary in crafting, right, Noah?

00:19:37Josh:So, assuming you get a successful roll using the more generous alternative item crafting rules, you can knock 130 gold pieces off of the price every day of work you put into it.

00:19:50Jorge:Oh.

00:19:51Josh:So, like, if you wanted to, like, the...

00:19:57Josh:The new, like, player core version of the crafting rules is better.

00:20:02Josh:It's not great still.

00:20:04Josh:But at your level, it's 130 gold pieces per... Assuming you get a success.

00:20:09Josh:If you get a critical success, it's 200 gold pieces per day.

00:20:16Noah:I feel like if you have the money, that might be worth it just to be safe.

00:20:18Jorge:Okay.

00:20:18Tanner:you

00:20:20Jorge:So we could do that.

00:20:22Jorge:The clockwork one still needs to be done within two rounds.

00:20:25Jorge:Or I can buy one 10th level raised dead.

00:20:30Jorge:And that works below 21.

00:20:41Jorge:I have $10,000.

00:20:42Jorge:I have 10,000 gold, 10,005 gold.

00:20:48Noah:That's a lot.

00:20:49Tanner:I have 8,719.

00:20:50Tanner:So I could throw some in.

00:20:54Jorge:You have 8,000.

00:20:55Josh:For a 10th level scroll of Raised Dead would cost you... Oh, times... You get a discount, don't you?

00:21:02Josh:5,760 gold pieces.

00:21:03Jorge:Oh, I forgot about this one.

00:21:06Jorge:Oh.

00:21:07Jorge:So if, Henrik, you throw in yours, we can have three scrolls of it.

00:21:12Noah:I have 9,190.

00:21:14Noah:I'll throw in some too.

00:21:16Jorge:So how many do you guys want?

00:21:18Jorge:Because only Lev's going to be able to cast these.

00:21:20Noah:Uh...

00:21:22Jorge:See, if you two can revive Lev, Lev can get multiple people.

00:21:22Mike:Excuse me.

00:21:27Tanner:I feel like

00:21:28Mike:Divex can cast them.

00:21:30Josh:I think it's a universalist.

00:21:30Jorge:You can cast any... Oh, so you can cast any spell?

00:21:33Mike:Well, I also have trick magic item.

00:21:35Josh:It's a divine spell, but with trick magic item you can absolutely cast it.

00:21:42Jorge:Wait, what does he need to roll to do the trick magic item?

00:21:45Mike:Oh, you're right.

00:21:46Mike:I need to roll religion because it's divine.

00:21:49Mike:I need to use the right... Oh, actually, I figured out they're all connected.

00:21:52Noah:We know you have the feet.

00:21:55Mike:I could just roll Archon.

00:21:56Jorge:But what do you need to roll out of curiosity for that?

00:21:58Tanner:12.

00:22:00Josh:Use your level as your proficiency bonus.

00:22:02Mike:To cast a tenth?

00:22:04Mike:Uh...

00:22:12Josh:No, no, no, no.

00:22:15Josh:What is the actual DC here?

00:22:16Josh:Oh, it's a level-based DC.

00:22:17Mike:Level-based DCs.

00:22:23Mike:So the item is 20th level, or?

00:22:26Josh:The item is 10th level.

00:22:28Josh:The DC is 39.

00:22:30Jorge:Okay, so if he fails that, it's expended, the scroll?

00:22:35Josh:No, if he just regular fails, then he can't use it that turn, but he can try again the next turn.

00:22:43Josh:If he critically fails, he can't use it that day, but he can try again the next day.

00:22:47Tanner:Hmm.

00:22:48Mike:So I need to roll a two.

00:22:48Jorge:Okay.

00:22:55Noah:That's insane.

00:22:56Jorge:Okay, so how many of these 10th level ones should we buy?

00:22:59Jorge:I don't know.

00:23:00Jorge:Lev, I've sent my player sheet to Josh.

00:23:04Jorge:I don't know what other things Lev could want.

00:23:06Jorge:I'm going to be honest with you.

00:23:07Jorge:I have 20 items invested.

00:23:08Josh:Hmm.

00:23:11Jorge:I have a lot of nice things.

00:23:14Jorge:I don't know what else I could fucking have.

00:23:16Jorge:So... Yeah.

00:23:16Noah:I know last campaign we were like, God, high-level characters at some point just get so crazy with the things you can do.

00:23:23Noah:Pathfinder, even more insane.

00:23:27Jorge:Yeah, so I just straight up... Okay.

00:23:28Tanner:I would say two.

00:23:30Mike:I think we get two.

00:23:31Mike:I think Divex carries one, and I think Lev carries one.

00:23:34Mike:And then we have the Apple and the Clockwork thing for the other two.

00:23:38Noah:Yeah.

00:23:41Noah:And everyone has a way to bring someone else back.

00:23:44Jorge:Do you guys have any other useful spells you want me to get a 10th level teleport?

00:23:49Jorge:Maybe.

00:23:50Noah:um that could be useful there's also a sixth level oh it's rare though never mind i don't know word of revision uh it's a reaction spell that basically if someone within 60 feet critically fails a throw a saving throw or goes to zero hit points uh it basically brings them back up

00:23:55Jorge:What is it, though?

00:23:59Jorge:Yeah.

00:24:09Tanner:you

00:24:14Mike:It's like 5,700 apiece.

00:24:17Mike:Jesus.

00:24:19Mike:I mean, I guess it is a 10th level.

00:24:22Josh:It's normally like 7.5 or something ridiculous, but you guys do also have the discount because you were broken in the previous campaign, so that should carry over, I suppose.

00:24:32Josh:Hmm?

00:24:34Jorge:Oh, I forgot to apply the discount here.

00:24:37Mike:What happens if we die outside of Volthane?

00:24:40Noah:We die in real life.

00:24:42Tanner:I guess our soul would probably not make it to the... No, it probably would still go to the lighthouse.

00:24:48Tanner:The lighthouse is everywhere.

00:24:50Mike:It is true.

00:24:53Tanner:But then... Hmm.

00:24:54Tanner:But it doesn't capture all souls everywhere.

00:24:58Jorge:There we go.

00:24:58Mike:Are there marked?

00:25:02Tanner:Hmm.

00:25:02Mike:Give me him.

00:25:04Josh:It actually says that whenever somebody dies Shaggy

00:25:05Jorge:Thank you.

00:25:10Mike:It's like that one Scooby-Doo movie.

00:25:13Tanner:Oh, I was thinking about Bilbo Baggins in The Fellowship of the Ring.

00:25:19Noah:There was a moment where I was like, I don't think that's his last name.

00:25:21Mike:You weren't thinking about the Freddie Prinze Jr.

00:25:23Mike:and I forgot that guy's name, live-action Scooby-Doo movie?

00:25:28Tanner:Matthew Lillard.

00:25:29Mike:Matthew Lillard, right.

00:25:32Mike:He plays Freddie Frazzbear.

00:25:34Mike:Oh, yeah.

00:25:34Josh:Does he?

00:25:36Tanner:He's in the movie.

00:25:37Tanner:I don't think he plays Freddy Fazbear.

00:25:40Josh:I haven't... Spend all your money.

00:25:42Tanner:He is in the movie.

00:25:51Jorge:Okay, so by two, anyone else pitching money in or am I going to spend all my money?

00:25:57Noah:I'll toss in some money so we can split it.

00:26:00Mike:I think everyone should just split it.

00:26:00Josh:No, give me all of your money.

00:26:03Mike:So 10,000... It's like a grand or something, you said, Josh?

00:26:08Tanner:Thank you.

00:26:11Mike:What is it?

00:26:12Mike:5,700 for both?

00:26:13Mike:So it's 11,000... Yeah, no, no, sorry.

00:26:14Josh:No, for one.

00:26:15Jorge:For one, for one.

00:26:18Mike:5,700 for each.

00:26:19Mike:We're getting two.

00:26:20Mike:So it's 10,000 or 11,400.

00:26:20Josh:Okay.

00:26:22Mike:You know, I wasn't trying to... So... Yeah.

00:26:24Jorge:Do we even have a group fun still?

00:26:28Mike:so uh if we want to completely drain the group fund how much silver does it no i'm joking uh 11 700 minus uh this amount in the group fund three one four four i need to have an equal sign because spreadsheet this divided by four

00:27:00Mike:Cool.

00:27:00Tanner:Thank you.

00:27:07Mike:I actually just ruined the whole formula.

00:27:08Mike:Okay, everyone needs to donate 2,139.

00:27:14Noah:Oh no.

00:27:17Mike:Uh, you can't get the scroll.

00:27:20Jorge:2,100 and what?

00:27:22Josh:What if I don't have that?

00:27:32Jorge:All right.

00:27:33Mike:Thirty nine.

00:27:35Tanner:Done.

00:27:44Noah:Nice.

00:27:45Mike:And then minus eleven thousand seven hundred.

00:27:48Mike:So this is a. What is the name of the spell raised that.

00:27:59Jorge:Yeah, raise to 10th level.

00:28:01Josh:Which, if any of you make it up to level 21, this spell will still revive you.

00:28:06Mike:Or when you're jumping into a volcano and you plan to spend less than six seconds there.

00:28:13Jorge:And we can also buy a Indestructibility, which will just last one round.

00:28:21Noah:Does that seem like a good investment?

00:28:22Jorge:I don't know why that spell pisses me off so much.

00:28:24Josh:That's what the spell does.

00:28:26Josh:I don't know what to tell you.

00:28:27Noah:Ooh.

00:28:32Josh:It's because you're used to, like, having Odeluk's Invincible Sphere at 6th level or whatever in 5e, which makes you invincible for a year or whatever, and now you're here and it's like, listen, being just completely invulnerable to almost all attacks is maybe a little overpowered.

00:28:51Jorge:And quick question, Josh.

00:28:51Mike:Yeah.

00:28:51Tanner:Oh, it feels fine.

00:28:55Jorge:The spell gate, does that only work inside of a sphere, or does that go anywhere?

00:29:01Josh:You're gonna make me read the spell Gate?

00:29:05Josh:How dare you.

00:29:11Josh:Um... No, I'd allow Gate to work.

00:29:12Noah:Thank you.

00:29:17Josh:It's level 10.

00:29:18Josh:Given that Teleport can go anywhere in the galaxy, I feel like it's not unreasonable for Gate to do the same.

00:29:26Jorge:Oh, crystal spheres are in the setting, or in Pathfinder?

00:29:27Josh:Like, teleport without homebrewing anything can teleport you into another crystal sphere.

00:29:33Josh:So, it's fine if Gate can do something.

00:29:39Josh:Uh, they're in 5E, well, so, crystal spheres are in 3rd edition, which Pathfinder 1 was based off of.

00:29:48Josh:And so Pathfinder 2's setting never actually references the term crystal sphere because they're legally not allowed to, but they make allusions to other realms existing in weird sphere-shaped objects.

00:30:06Josh:So, like, technically no, but yes.

00:30:09Jorge:OK.

00:30:13Jorge:Cool.

00:30:13Jorge:I'll do that.

00:30:16Jorge:I'll buy a gate.

00:30:16Noah:We do have the answer.

00:30:20Tanner:In case we gotta get back and the broker is broke.

00:30:26Jorge:Yeah, because teleportation takes 10 seconds to cast.

00:30:27Josh:The gun acts as a tuning fork for the sake of plane shift, whose material components require a tuning fork to the plane that you're trying to go to.

00:30:28Jorge:So this one is not.

00:30:31Jorge:And yeah.

00:30:35Tanner:We also have a gong.

00:30:36Tanner:I don't remember what the gong does, but we have it.

00:30:39Jorge:Plane Shift.

00:30:49Josh:Oh, I think so.

00:30:50Jorge:That's in Sphere though, right?

00:30:52Tanner:BONG!

00:30:56Josh:Interplanar teleport.

00:31:06Josh:I think... So, no, but what would probably happen is I would allow you to upcast it at 10th level with all of the other restrictions in order to leave your sphere.

00:31:15Jorge:I am very crazy.

00:31:21Josh:i will say the gong only works for insphere though like i'm not going to allow the gong to act as a tuning fork for like old thesia so you know right what gong you guys don't have a gong nobody stole it it broke

00:31:31Tanner:We're going, boys.

00:31:34Mike:What gong?

00:31:44Jorge:All right.

00:31:44Jorge:I am red.

00:31:46Noah:Let's do it.

00:31:48Noah:We have costume contest to win.

00:31:50Josh:Ooh.

00:31:52Tanner:Guys, we're gonna have to pay to enter.

00:31:54Jorge:I can convince someone that I'm a long-lost prince from another country that just needs a little bit of money to access my riches.

00:32:03Mike:I don't know.

00:32:03Mike:Just act really in character.

00:32:05Mike:There's no credits on Althane.

00:32:08Mike:Try to pay them with genuine Althane currency.

00:32:12Jorge:Yeah.

00:32:13Noah:If we lose a costume contest of us, it'd be very embarrassing.

00:32:18Jorge:That's if you go as yourself.

00:32:20Jorge:I'm still debating on if I try to go as someone else.

00:32:23Mike:You two swap.

00:32:24Mike:You two swap.

00:32:26Mike:Dimex.

00:32:26Jorge:No, no, no, no, no.

00:32:27Jorge:I meant I try to figure out a character from here.

00:32:31Jorge:And then I go as that character.

00:32:34Mike:Go as grim.

00:32:34Jorge:But just better than everyone else.

00:32:34Noah:Someone else in the party.

00:32:38Tanner:I was thinking we just try to be like a different NPC from the campaign and hope there's like a big Oxus fan out there.

00:32:49Noah:Thank you.

00:32:50Josh:Could be, you know or not.

00:32:50Jorge:Yeah.

00:32:53Tanner:Hey, I'm Lady Grave.

00:32:55Tanner:I hate all of you.

00:32:55Jorge:I might go as Marzo.

00:32:59Mike:You double-crossed me.

00:33:06Mike:Thank you.

00:33:06Josh:Going as Lady Grave would be such a deep cut, even for people who watch the show, because she would have showed up in one episode total.

00:33:16Tanner:Do not underestimate the power of cosplayers.

00:33:20Josh:I'm not saying it wouldn't work.

00:33:24Josh:I'm just saying, like, you guys are going as main characters, and even as the main characters of a TV show, not many people noticed you on the street.

00:33:24Noah:That was such an insane, deep SpongeBob cut, Mike.

00:33:33Josh:So... Oh, that was a Spongebob reference?

00:33:33Jorge:That's why I was going to try to figure out a more popular person to go as.

00:33:34Mike:It's like going as the nematodes.

00:33:47Mike:I was trying to... Yeah.

00:33:47Tanner:It was genius.

00:33:49Tanner:It was genius, actually.

00:33:50Noah:It was actually also on many levels it worked because that was the antagonist from the first Spongebob episode.

00:33:50Tanner:Never seen again.

00:33:56Noah:The Alaskan bull worm too.

00:33:57Josh:Mmm.

00:33:58Tanner:What about that lady that always hated chocolate?

00:34:00Mike:I was trying to think of like...

00:34:02Mike:fuck what was what is it as a character that only existed a single spongebob episode and all i can think of were the fucking nematodes oh you'll ask yeah we should go to the alaskan bullhorn you don't recognize me i'm the iriski and they killed in uh what was that injunction

00:34:20Noah:All goes to the Alaskan bull worm.

00:34:31Noah:Random rescue number two.

00:34:32Noah:One more.

00:34:37Josh:Do we feel like we want to play the game?

00:34:40Tanner:Oh, yeah, I guess probably we should.

00:34:44Noah:I got one more joke.

00:34:44Noah:We could be those rats that we killed that one time when we first met Marzo.

00:34:47Mike:Thank you.

00:34:48Tanner:Oh, yeah, stomping rats.

00:34:52Tanner:That was fun.

00:34:53Josh:You could do that.

00:34:53Noah:Okay, sorry.

00:34:55Josh:No, that's fair.

00:34:57Josh:You're game planning.

00:34:58Josh:It's acceptable.

00:35:00Josh:Okay.

00:35:02Josh:So... Where were we?

00:35:06Josh:What were we doing?

00:35:08Josh:Does anybody want to do a recap?

00:35:12Josh:Sure.

00:35:12Tanner:Birthday recap.

00:35:14Jorge:birthday recap yeah so um we started the session mid-fight with a really scary dude that we met a while ago except somehow he got weaker and we just beat the shit out of him um as we beat the shit out of him we were then like oh let's get his body to also desecrate but then tentacles grabbed him we tried to be like no no we deserve this and then like so it takes him

00:35:14Josh:Birthday recap.

00:35:44Jorge:Um, then the broker's like, Hey guys, I, uh, still want to leave.

00:35:50Jorge:So we're like, Oh shit, we forgot about this.

00:35:52Jorge:This has been years.

00:35:53Jorge:So we go back.

00:35:55Jorge:Uh, one of the characters does a great, really good impression of car cop to basically just be like, Hey guys, the people were hunting, they're dead.

00:36:04Jorge:Um, but also the deeps about to take over.

00:36:07Jorge:So like, uh, you guys should, uh, you know, do some, uh, fallback security things.

00:36:13Jorge:And then, we leave.

00:36:15Jorge:We head over.

00:36:17Jorge:Big Fish taunts the broker.

00:36:20Jorge:We almost got into a fight with him, probably.

00:36:22Jorge:He then gives him the gun.

00:36:26Jorge:The broker takes it, pulls out a little leech, gives it a little squeezy squeeze.

00:36:31Jorge:And the leech goes, and then after that, it undid all of the curses.

00:36:40Jorge:We're like, hey, broker, should we go back and kill that dude?

00:36:43Jorge:And he's like,

00:36:44Jorge:Only if you're really petty.

00:36:45Jorge:So then we had to think about it.

00:36:46Jorge:And then we're like, well, I guess we'll get back to it later.

00:36:51Jorge:So then the broker's like, cool.

00:36:53Jorge:We got to go grocery shopping.

00:36:54Jorge:We're like, awesome.

00:36:55Jorge:We head over.

00:36:56Jorge:It was a really cool grocery store.

00:36:59Jorge:It was Elysium.

00:37:01Jorge:And the broker maybe had his own Citadel inside of it.

00:37:06Jorge:Very cool.

00:37:07Jorge:There were 16 of them.

00:37:08Jorge:Apparently, there's a really cool guy named Zugg there who's super cool.

00:37:12Jorge:We never got to meet him, though.

00:37:13Jorge:And then we got some badges that are pretty sick.

00:37:16Jorge:We got really sick.

00:37:19Jorge:So we puked and pooped a lot.

00:37:20Jorge:And then after that, we're like, hey, let's go over to this other world.

00:37:26Jorge:So we went over to the other world.

00:37:27Jorge:And we realized that the F.E.E.P.

00:37:28Jorge:is just a weeb.

00:37:30Jorge:And he was just like, Jack Donaghy meets weeb.

00:37:33Jorge:So he was just like, hello, lemon.

00:37:35Jorge:And he was over there.

00:37:36Jorge:We're like, we got to figure out who he is in this whole futuristic place.

00:37:40Jorge:And the broker's like, hey, this place is gross.

00:37:43Jorge:I'm not going to touch this bed, but you guys should figure this out.

00:37:47Jorge:And I'm going to go bribe some dude.

00:37:48Jorge:And we're like, you're pretty cool.

00:37:49Jorge:So he leaves.

00:37:51Jorge:And then we start walking down the street.

00:37:53Jorge:And then a fan of ours comes over and was just like, wow, love, you have really strong arms.

00:37:53Tanner:Thank you.

00:37:58Jorge:And we're like, he does.

00:38:00Jorge:And then she's like, I guess I'll catch you later at the costume contest.

00:38:03Jorge:We're like, damn straight.

00:38:05Jorge:And that's where we ended it.

00:38:08Josh:Yeah, I mean, I guess that's accurate.

00:38:10Josh:I feel like there was some postulation going on there that hasn't necessarily been confirmed.

00:38:15Josh:And also just straight up putting some words in people's mouths, which is par for the course, I suppose.

00:38:23Josh:Oh, I'm being told that that didn't happen.

00:38:25Josh:I apologize.

00:38:26Josh:What do I know?

00:38:27Josh:Okay.

00:38:28Jorge:Yeah, we're not putting words in your mouth.

00:38:29Jorge:Let's put those words in your mouth.

00:38:36Josh:Um...

00:38:38Josh:Yeah, I guess that's all.

00:38:38Noah:Thank you.

00:38:44Josh:Just calling out the person that did stop you and let you guys know that you are all dressed up in costume.

00:38:49Josh:Didn't compliment your muscles.

00:38:53Josh:Did wish you good luck on your search.

00:38:55Josh:And did cause you all to generally move in the direction of...

00:39:02Josh:MediaCon, where you were informed there is currently a big convention of some kind going on in downtown Terminus, the super city that you're currently in.

00:39:13Jorge:Amen.

00:39:15Josh:So you all couldn't take the train, because you don't have wallets, nor any way of holding money, because all of the money in this world is digital.

00:39:26Josh:So instead you walked.

00:39:27Josh:It was probably a generally interesting experience for all of you to actually walk for what is not all that far a distance given how far you guys have traveled in the past, but through a very different environment.

00:39:41Josh:Walking through the city for, you know, close to six or seven miles is very different from walking across an open empty plane for six to seven miles.

00:39:51Josh:But you did it.

00:39:52Josh:And so we ended last session and we'll begin this session with all of you as you have finally trudged your way down two subway stops to the convention center where you know that MediaCon is being held.

00:40:10Josh:And you've noticed that you're getting closer because the closer and closer you get to your eventual destination, the more...

00:40:16Josh:familiar everything looks.

00:40:20Josh:Of course, there's a lot of strangeness going on.

00:40:22Josh:There are definitely still all kinds of people with like full body parts that have been replaced, pieces of plastic and metal where skin should be, eyes that are the wrong shape or the wrong color or both.

00:40:33Josh:All of the jazz that you would expect from people in a post-humanist society.

00:40:39Josh:But also there are people with tunics and swords and what looks like magic.

00:40:46Josh:Just like little bits of flame flying around, sparkles showing up.

00:40:50Josh:You're pretty sure you see an older looking gentleman in a frilly pink skirt with a wand with a star on it flying away.

00:41:01Josh:Just a weird mix of people.

00:41:05Josh:But at least a little bit of familiarity here as you approach the entrance.

00:41:10Josh:And so that's where we begin today's session.

00:41:14Josh:You are outside of the con.

00:41:17Jorge:So is there an intern to enter or something?

00:41:17Tanner:Hmm.

00:41:20Josh:There is a very obvious large series of archways that appear to head into wherever the actual con is taking place.

00:41:29Josh:There are long lines out front, and it looks like people are being stopped at the entrance.

00:41:35Josh:You don't just get to walk right through.

00:41:36Josh:Oh, sure.

00:41:37Jorge:Cool.

00:41:38Jorge:By the way, does anyone look different?

00:41:44Jorge:Did anyone buy anything?

00:41:46Jorge:I don't know.

00:41:47Tanner:Oh.

00:41:47Jorge:Because we wrecked on that.

00:41:50Tanner:I don't think so.

00:41:51Noah:What does love look like now?

00:41:53Josh:Yeah.

00:41:53Jorge:Lev looks very different.

00:41:54Jorge:That's why I put that out there.

00:41:55Mike:Bye.

00:41:56Tanner:Oh, gee.

00:41:56Jorge:He looks very different.

00:42:00Jorge:So a couple things to note.

00:42:02Jorge:His eyes, a little different.

00:42:04Jorge:You know how they usually have whites back there?

00:42:06Jorge:Now there's blacks.

00:42:08Jorge:A little more Nox-y there.

00:42:11Jorge:There's...

00:42:13Jorge:I'm not wearing my blindfold.

00:42:16Jorge:But I have a blindfold.

00:42:18Jorge:And I have a new ring.

00:42:21Jorge:And I have a tattoo.

00:42:22Jorge:With Anaïs on it.

00:42:24Jorge:And I got a. Another dread rune.

00:42:29Jorge:But yeah.

00:42:32Noah:Hey, Lev, are you good?

00:42:32Tanner:Okay.

00:42:34Jorge:Yeah.

00:42:35Jorge:Well I'm fine.

00:42:37Jorge:Very fine.

00:42:39Jorge:But you know.

00:42:39Mike:I don't know

00:42:39Noah:Okay.

00:42:40Jorge:I bought a lot of things.

00:42:41Jorge:And you know.

00:42:43Noah:When do you have time to buy these things?

00:42:44Noah:I feel like we all take an eight-hour long rest and then wake up and you just have new things.

00:42:49Jorge:Oh, you know, I bought this in the Citadel stuff.

00:42:52Jorge:I just forgot to show it to you guys.

00:42:53Noah:Oh, I was puking for three days straight.

00:42:55Jorge:Yeah.

00:42:56Noah:I wasn't sure what everyone else was doing.

00:42:57Jorge:You didn't do any shopping?

00:42:59Noah:I did nothing but puke for three days straight.

00:43:01Jorge:That is very unfortunate.

00:43:03Tanner:Damn.

00:43:06Jorge:I sold some stuff, and I got some new stuff.

00:43:08Jorge:And then also, I guess Knox also, you know, more Herald stuff, kind of took some other stuff.

00:43:14Jorge:But other than that, I'm good.

00:43:17Tanner:I mean, what are you going to do?

00:43:17Noah:Dawn's going to look around at all the people here and how tightly compacted everyone is and how dirty it is.

00:43:25Noah:Guys, I know I've given the whole I spent my whole life in a depopulated hellscape fighting the moon speech a few times, but if this is the opposite, I don't like this either.

00:43:35Noah:This is also terrible.

00:43:37Tanner:Yeah, and also Mediacon is such a soulless name.

00:43:40Josh:If it helps, as you approach... For the sake of expedience, we're going to say that Common is the lingua franca across all of the Astra, so you can read the languages here.

00:43:41Noah:Yeah.

00:43:41Jorge:Yeah, yeah.

00:43:43Jorge:So can you go?

00:43:43Noah:General media?

00:43:57Josh:It's not just Mediacon.

00:43:59Josh:It's actually specifically Mediacon brought to you by Omnivox.

00:44:05Josh:If that helps.

00:44:06Jorge:Well, does anyone hear?

00:44:07Tanner:Of course.

00:44:11Jorge:know who we are can i try find someone that knows who we are 35 for me

00:44:15Josh:Well, you can do a perception or a society check here.

00:44:20Josh:Perception to look around and see if anybody seems to recognize you, or a society to proactively... Yes.

00:44:28Noah:I'm just going to yell, Marzo!

00:44:29Noah:We've lost Marzo!

00:44:31Noah:Has anyone seen Marzo?

00:44:33Noah:And see if anyone reacts.

00:44:34Josh:Okay.

00:44:35Josh:Absolutely.

00:44:35Josh:So I will give you a plus two to this check.

00:44:39Josh:Circumstance bonus.

00:44:41Josh:A plus two, two checks made.

00:44:41Tanner:Oh.

00:44:44Josh:Big Fish, Dawn, sorry, just aided whoever rolled.

00:44:47Jorge:OK.

00:44:48Josh:I'll give you a plus two.

00:44:49Josh:37.

00:44:49Jorge:So I have 37.

00:44:53Josh:Okay, so you are looking around for just, you know, somebody who recognizes you guys.

00:44:59Josh:And there's definitely a lot of people who will look over at you, and I think you maybe get the impression that people are like, hmm, I know that from somewhere.

00:45:07Josh:That's definitely a reference.

00:45:09Josh:Uh, but to what end, you're not really sure.

00:45:09Jorge:OK.

00:45:12Josh:Um, unfortunately with the 37, you don't see anybody who immediately like looks like they recognize you specifically as who you are.

00:45:20Josh:You guys are characters from a niche television, like a niche cult classic television show.

00:45:23Jorge:I also just want to let you know, I continuously see through magic auras.

00:45:24Josh:Uh, you know, so yes.

00:45:31Josh:Hmm.

00:45:34Jorge:Quote, as a ninth rank detect magic, I also see the location of all auras, not just the strongest.

00:45:41Josh:There's a lot of aura around here.

00:45:42Jorge:And I see invisible things.

00:45:50Josh:The base power level of somebody in Terminus is around-ish level 10.

00:45:57Jorge:Okay.

00:45:58Jorge:Just bring it out there.

00:45:59Josh:Everybody has magical augmentation throughout their body.

00:46:04Jorge:Yeah, so I see I have the 8th rank unseen and true sight spells.

00:46:07Jorge:Just putting that out there.

00:46:09Jorge:I don't think I'm going to see anything now.

00:46:10Jorge:Just letting you know I now have that.

00:46:13Jorge:Alright.

00:46:16Jorge:Any one of these people that seem like they kind of know who I am, I'm going to try to go up to them.

00:46:20Josh:Okay, sure.

00:46:21Jorge:Or that they see...

00:46:22Josh:Yeah, you pick somebody out of the crowd who looked like they might maybe recognize you guys.

00:46:28Josh:This is, you think, an elf.

00:46:32Josh:They have the pointed ears that you would expect from an elf and the same completely black sclera, although one of those looks like it's plastic and not actually Anaïs.

00:46:42Jorge:Hello.

00:46:42Josh:But they're six feet tall and as wide as they are tall.

00:46:46Josh:They're the buffest elf you have ever seen.

00:46:52Jorge:What is your name?

00:46:54Josh:Hello.

00:46:55Josh:I am Krognek.

00:46:58Josh:Well met.

00:47:01Jorge:I'm Livmir.

00:47:02Jorge:From, you know, Livmir.

00:47:03Jorge:I'm going to do the smile with the...

00:47:05Josh:I'm gonna roll a check for this guy.

00:47:08Josh:I'm just gonna give him... Okay.

00:47:11Jorge:The vampire fangs that I keep doing on the talk show.

00:47:15Josh:I'm gonna give him a plus 10.

00:47:18Josh:The DC here is 15.

00:47:20Jorge:Okay.

00:47:23Josh:No, unfortunately, he's like, unfortunately, Kroknek is not aware of Alevmir.

00:47:33Josh:But I have mead and synth deer, if that would please you.

00:47:38Josh:And he'll reach into his pack and take out just, um, like, it looks like a hock of meat of some kind.

00:47:39Jorge:Yeah, I'll take some.

00:47:40Jorge:You want some vodka?

00:47:49Josh:And he'll hand it over to you.

00:47:51Jorge:Oh, cool.

00:47:52Jorge:All right.

00:47:52Jorge:Thank you.

00:47:53Jorge:That way to enter.

00:47:58Josh:Yes.

00:47:59Jorge:Cool.

00:48:02Jorge:Let's go.

00:48:03Josh:He just nods.

00:48:04Josh:He's in character.

00:48:06Jorge:Yeah.

00:48:07Noah:Us too.

00:48:10Mike:What?

00:48:11Jorge:Is this how we normally seem to the other people?

00:48:13Jorge:We're kind of annoying.

00:48:17Tanner:No, well, he was just acting.

00:48:19Noah:This is how we are.

00:48:19Jorge:OK, I'm going to give you guys a little bit of a secret.

00:48:25Jorge:If we can't get anywhere, I can just kill them, look like them, and enter the con through their, you know.

00:48:33Jorge:No?

00:48:33Tanner:We don't... Yeah, we don't need to do that.

00:48:33Jorge:OK, I don't do that.

00:48:37Noah:innocent TV watchers.

00:48:37Jorge:All right.

00:48:42Tanner:Media fans.

00:48:44Josh:Okay, so you guys get online?

00:48:45Josh:Okay, absolutely.

00:48:46Jorge:yeah okay

00:48:48Josh:You're online.

00:48:49Josh:Directly in front of you is like a bipedal elephant looking guy.

00:48:54Josh:And behind you is two people in a centaur costume.

00:49:01Josh:But the centaur has what looks to be six legs and there are only two people in it.

00:49:07Josh:Either way.

00:49:10Josh:Eventually, you know, it does take like a good 45 minutes just waiting in line before you actually get to the entrance of Mediacon, where you are stopped by a... Apathetic is probably the kind way to describe this person, wearing like a yellow high-vis vest and some kind of wand thing.

00:49:32Josh:They wave the wand in front of you.

00:49:34Josh:It beeps a few times, and then they say, Flesh your pest, please.

00:49:44Jorge:We don't say everyone, but from all same.

00:49:44Mike:Pass.

00:49:48Josh:Cute.

00:49:49Josh:You need a pass to get in.

00:49:53Josh:If you want, I could give you the link to buy one right now.

00:49:55Josh:You watch as their eyes flash blue for a few seconds.

00:49:57Jorge:Yeah, that'd be great.

00:50:05Josh:And I say, you need to open your com.

00:50:11Josh:Set your privacy settings so that I can send you the link.

00:50:15Josh:I'm not fighting you on the drop list.

00:50:18Jorge:uh hey josh can i make a with this handy new thing i have third eye i can make a seek action to study a person to perceive their aura and get their hit points can i do that i'm trying to use it as just like a blanket what level are they kind of trying to get that it's a seek action

00:50:20Josh:Okay.

00:50:36Josh:Yeah.

00:50:41Josh:You can do that, sure.

00:50:42Mike:What the fuck?

00:50:43Josh:What do you have to roll to figure out their hit points?

00:50:47Josh:Okay, so that's a perception check.

00:50:49Jorge:Okay.

00:50:51Noah:Josh, I'm just going to hide while this is happening.

00:50:54Tanner:I've got more.

00:50:54Josh:Okay, roll stealth.

00:50:55Jorge:37.

00:50:58Josh:37.

00:50:59Josh:This person has 200 hit points.

00:51:03Jorge:Damn.

00:51:05Tanner:I would put him as a guard, you know, being of slightly more constitute than your average person.

00:51:07Noah:I got it.

00:51:07Jorge:Do I have an estimate on what I think their level would be?

00:51:12Josh:You have an estimate on their about 200 hit points.

00:51:23Tanner:he's probably level fifteen maybe fourteen uh...

00:51:26Jorge:All right, so I'm not going to charm him, because that might not work.

00:51:32Jorge:All right.

00:51:33Jorge:Well.

00:51:38Jorge:Can I try a sweet talking?

00:51:40Josh:Uh, yeah.

00:51:42Josh:Sweet talking how.

00:51:44Jorge:I should be like, I really wish I could connect this.

00:51:46Jorge:We just really don't.

00:51:47Jorge:And I'm just going to pretend like I'm just in game, or just like in costume.

00:51:51Jorge:Like, I really can't.

00:51:53Jorge:I can give you at least gold, though.

00:51:54Jorge:At least this will work.

00:51:55Josh:Okay, so you are trying to get into the con by acting really in character and hoping he just lets you in.

00:52:02Jorge:Yes.

00:52:04Josh:Okay, roll a diplomacy check.

00:52:06Josh:It's gonna be a really high DC.

00:52:08Mike:While this is happening, we have a schism.

00:52:12Noah:I think that might be the... Josh, I got a 37 to high.

00:52:14Mike:Hey, I have a schism.

00:52:16Mike:Hey, guys, so I can confuse this person probably pretty easily and pretty covertly if this is desired.

00:52:27Tanner:yeah unless we

00:52:27Jorge:Yeah, we will see how this goes, so it will be.

00:52:35Jorge:F52.

00:52:36Josh:Okay, you got a 37 to hide.

00:52:39Noah:Rolled very low.

00:52:42Josh:You, you know, as best as you think you are, their eyes aren't following you anymore.

00:52:48Josh:I don't know if that, you're in a huge crowd of people.

00:52:50Josh:Okay.

00:52:51Noah:I'm just going to slowly try and sidle my way past into the con.

00:52:58Josh:Sure.

00:53:00Josh:Alrighty.

00:53:02Josh:Don is going to try and sneak his way in.

00:53:04Josh:A 52.

00:53:04Josh:Okay.

00:53:08Josh:You're just, like, in character.

00:53:10Josh:You're like, here, have some gold pieces.

00:53:12Jorge:You want wine?

00:53:12Josh:And he's... Sorry.

00:53:13Jorge:I can give you wine.

00:53:14Jorge:I pull out... It's a bottle of blue wine.

00:53:17Josh:Like... Show me the one.

00:53:27Josh:Okay.

00:53:27Jorge:It's really blue.

00:53:31Josh:Sure.

00:53:31Tanner:you

00:53:35Josh:Puts his hand out.

00:53:36Jorge:I give it to him.

00:53:38Josh:Is it open?

00:53:39Jorge:No.

00:53:40Josh:He will uncork it.

00:53:43Josh:He doesn't need, like, a tool.

00:53:46Josh:He just, using two fingers, crushes the glass a little bit and pulls the whole cork out.

00:53:48Jorge:Yes, I told you.

00:53:53Josh:Smells it, takes a swig.

00:53:56Josh:This is real wine.

00:53:59Jorge:I'm from Ulfheim.

00:54:01Josh:You're using real... Listen.

00:54:01Noah:you

00:54:05Josh:This is worth more than the ticket.

00:54:07Josh:But yeah.

00:54:08Josh:And then he like plugs it and puts it into a bag.

00:54:10Jorge:How much is it worth?

00:54:12Josh:Get in there.

00:54:12Josh:I'd... I'd rather not.

00:54:13Jorge:Yeah, yeah.

00:54:13Jorge:What's your name, by the way?

00:54:14Jorge:I'm Livmir.

00:54:18Jorge:OK, but please vote for us.

00:54:21Jorge:No one believes us.

00:54:23Jorge:I don't know what to do.

00:54:24Jorge:I'm just talking away as I'm walking in.

00:54:26Josh:Okay, absolutely.

00:54:27Josh:At this point, Dawn has just made it into the con.

00:54:32Noah:You just hear, guys, I'm in.

00:54:33Noah:I've defeated this incredibly powerful guard.

00:54:36Tanner:Hmm.

00:54:39Noah:Crazy in here.

00:54:40Noah:I am overwhelmed by sights and sounds.

00:54:41Josh:Well, so, speaking of, roll a perception check.

00:54:43Jorge:Did the mead that the guy offered me, it wasn't alcoholic?

00:54:46Josh:He didn't offer you meat.

00:54:47Josh:He offered you meat.

00:54:49Jorge:Ah, I thought it was meat and meat.

00:54:50Mike:I thought you said mead.

00:54:50Josh:He offered you a... He called it Sin Lamb.

00:54:54Jorge:Yeah, okay.

00:55:00Josh:You are immediately hit with some beam of light that blinds you.

00:55:08Noah:Ah, I've been attacked.

00:55:08Josh:You're getting silhouettes.

00:55:10Josh:Yeah.

00:55:12Josh:But with bribing the guard with wine, that is enough for the rest of you to get it.

00:55:13Noah:Excuse me.

00:55:18Josh:I mean, you've drastically overpaid, but that's fine.

00:55:23Tanner:Different world.

00:55:24Jorge:Good to know I have a lot of booze on me, so...

00:55:28Josh:you all enter into Mediacon.

00:55:33Josh:Which, it's the strangest thing.

00:55:36Josh:You walk through a doorway into a fairground.

00:55:41Josh:like, tents, dirt floor.

00:55:45Josh:There's a troubadour in the corner playing a little ditty on what looks to be a lute.

00:55:53Josh:If anything, this looks a bit old-fashioned for you.

00:55:53Tanner:Help.

00:55:57Josh:So it's a very strange transition here.

00:55:59Josh:It doesn't take much to, like, take a slightly closer look at the people here, and you still see the chrome in their faces and on their arms.

00:56:09Josh:It's like a Ren Faire, effectively.

00:56:13Josh:But people are dressed up, and you seem to be in some kind of thematic fairground right now.

00:56:19Jorge:Is there like a map?

00:56:19Josh:There are all kinds of different tents in different areas.

00:56:25Josh:Oh, you didn't roll well on the perception check.

00:56:27Josh:So somebody else can, if you like, roll a perception check to try and find a map or a directory of the con or something like that.

00:56:33Tanner:Heck yeah, I'm gonna roll.

00:56:41Tanner:Hopefully this doesn't... Man, what the heck?

00:56:41Jorge:Does anyone look wealthy?

00:56:44Josh:Roll a society check to try and pick out wealthy people specifically.

00:56:56Tanner:I got a 37.

00:56:57Jorge:35 from me.

00:57:00Josh:Okay, 37 and 35.

00:57:03Josh:37 is enough.

00:57:05Josh:They're not trying to hide the directory of the convention.

00:57:09Josh:It's four people.

00:57:10Josh:So you can see, like, kind of set off a little bit to the side when you first enter.

00:57:13Tanner:Thank you.

00:57:15Josh:In front of one of those booths is a, like, series of pamphlets, and what looks to be, like, one of the pamphlets has been blown up on this piece of plywood, effectively.

00:57:25Josh:That is a map of the convention.

00:57:28Josh:And what did you get?

00:57:28Josh:A 35?

00:57:30Jorge:Yeah.

00:57:30Josh:everybody here is dressed up it's a cosplay convention so the people that you see maybe the ones that are better costumed are wealthier but that's a little difficult necessarily for you to tell because you don't know how easy it is to make a costume in this day and age um

00:57:37Jorge:Yes, sir.

00:57:56Josh:Yeah, the best I can say is you do note that there are a lot of people faking magic with, like, holograms.

00:58:03Josh:There is real magic here, too.

00:58:04Josh:People are aware of magic on Terminus.

00:58:07Josh:So you will, like, pick out there are casters among the crowd that are doing actual magical effects and the like.

00:58:13Josh:It's not completely computer, computer, computer.

00:58:18Josh:But yeah.

00:58:20Jorge:and then is there any pamphlets of like maybe more famous characters is there like a superhero like a superman comic equivalent things like that henrik

00:58:20Mike:Thank you.

00:58:31Josh:So if you go over to the maps that Henrik found, gosh, there is a listing of, over the course of the day, different events that people might want to attend.

00:58:51Josh:Like different exhibits and the like.

00:58:55Josh:I guess...

00:58:57Josh:What are you looking for?

00:58:58Josh:Because I'm not going to make up an entire convention's worth of exhibits right now.

00:59:04Josh:Yes.

00:59:06Noah:Is there anything from Omnivox executives or anyone who works at Omnivox talking about the company or anything?

00:59:15Josh:Uh, yes, there definitely is.

00:59:18Josh:Um, there, well, there is, um, what they call the Summit Expo Hall, which, according to the map, is one of the Expo Halls off to the side.

00:59:26Josh:Uh, there are a few seminars being given by sponsors, uh, of the event, uh, and there's one set of, like, two hours that is blocked off that's specifically an Omnivox panel.

00:59:37Josh:Uh, it looks like they have some actors from...

00:59:40Josh:media that you wouldn't be familiar with that are going to be present, but there's also going to be the current COO.

00:59:49Josh:Where's her name?

00:59:50Josh:I have her name somewhere.

00:59:54Josh:The current COO of Omnivox.

00:59:56Jorge:It's the person we met on the way.

00:59:58Jorge:Boo.

01:00:00Josh:It is not the person you met on the way.

01:00:02Josh:I can't find it.

01:00:02Jorge:Boo.

01:00:07Josh:I have it somewhere.

01:00:07Josh:Give me one second.

01:00:08Mike:Her name is Darla Feep.

01:00:11Josh:Her name is Darla Fee.

01:00:11Mike:Wife of... Wife of... Wife of missing John Feep.

01:00:11Tanner:Bye.

01:00:17Josh:The current CEO, Braith Vanderbilt, who is going to be at the panel and answer questions as well.

01:00:27Noah:And how long from now is that panel?

01:00:31Josh:That panel's happening, and it looks like an hour.

01:00:33Josh:It takes two hours, and then after that, you will note, if you're looking at the schedule, that the cosplay competition is occurring in the Central Pavilion directly afterwards.

01:00:45Josh:So...

01:00:46Noah:Great.

01:00:47Jorge:Cool.

01:00:48Jorge:And then is there an all thing?

01:00:54Jorge:Any names that stick out to us?

01:00:55Jorge:46.

01:00:59Noah:Is there any... Is there, like, anything else that sticks out to us from, like, not all Thane that we might have run into?

01:01:03Tanner:Thank you.

01:01:09Noah:Like, Sundom-related or anything mentioned?

01:01:12Josh:So I can answer, there isn't anything Sundom related that you would note, although I don't know how many specific words from the Sundom you know other than Sundom.

01:01:21Jorge:Too bad Marzo isn't here.

01:01:22Noah:I know he knows every race in the...

01:01:24Josh:Marzo is aware of all of the races present in the Sundom, but unfortunately he's not present, and your little pen pal thing does not work across sphere, because it's a level 2 magic item that you picked up in some random town in the desert.

01:01:33Noah:No.

01:01:38Josh:Um...

01:01:40Josh:But, uh, uh, what'd you get a 47 looking for all things, specific stuff.

01:01:44Jorge:Yeah.

01:01:45Josh:Um, yes, 46, 46 is still enough.

01:01:47Jorge:46, 46.

01:01:50Josh:There is like flipping through the exhibits and stuff.

01:01:53Josh:There is one that stands out to you.

01:01:57Josh:Um, because it is a seminar being held in one of the further off, uh, exhibition halls.

01:02:05Josh:Um,

01:02:06Josh:called Talk Show Hosts and You.

01:02:09Noah:We got one hour to bop around.

01:02:12Josh:How using media in media can transform media.

01:02:17Josh:And then a list of speakers includes one Immix.

01:02:24Josh:Among others.

01:02:26Mike:What is that?

01:02:28Josh:That one's actually later tonight.

01:02:31Josh:It's maybe six hours away.

01:02:34Jorge:OK.

01:02:36Noah:Two hours.

01:02:38Noah:One hour to bop around.

01:02:39Noah:Two hours for this panel.

01:02:41Noah:How long is the costume contest?

01:02:43Josh:They've blocked off four hours, but I don't know if it'll necessarily go that long.

01:02:51Jorge:And then do we see, final thing, do we see a lot of like, is there like a fan favorite that I keep seeing, some cosplay?

01:03:01Josh:Yeah, I mean, if you look around, there are definitely some that pop out more than others.

01:03:06Josh:The most popular one I think that you would see repeated the most is there are a bunch of people walking around all looking like this guy with, it looks to be two completely metal arms and a leather jacket with this big moon on the back.

01:03:24Tanner:Thank you.

01:03:27Josh:I don't know if you would get any other details out of it.

01:03:29Jorge:Is there a comic book for this guy or something?

01:03:34Josh:Are you trying to look around and track down who this person is?

01:03:37Jorge:Yeah, I got an hour.

01:03:38Jorge:I want to try to figure out who he is so I can try to be the best one.

01:03:42Josh:Okay, wait, sorry.

01:03:43Josh:You're entering into the cosplay competition not as yourself?

01:03:46Jorge:Yeah.

01:03:46Josh:Yeah, sure.

01:03:47Josh:Roll the perception check.

01:03:50Jorge:Can I use a diplomacy to gather information to try to get information from these people to see what their shortcomings are?

01:03:56Josh:Sure.

01:03:56Josh:Roll the diplomacy check.

01:04:03Tanner:Thank you.

01:04:05Jorge:I will reroll that.

01:04:05Noah:Thank you.

01:04:10Jorge:That's a crit, 62.

01:04:13Josh:62, absolutely.

01:04:15Josh:You make your way around.

01:04:15Jorge:Natural 20.

01:04:21Josh:I don't know what the rest of you are doing, if you're following as Lev is just going from exhibit to exhibit, picking up as much information about Tarv of the Rising Moon that he can.

01:04:31Josh:But he has.

01:04:35Josh:He's like...

01:04:36Josh:There are a ton of fans.

01:04:39Josh:He's apparently the equivalent of a folk hero, as much as some guy from the slums can be a folk hero instead of what you're used to, which is a guy with a sword goes and slays a dragon.

01:04:52Josh:But his whole deal is there was a particularly popular series of TV shows turned into video games.

01:05:00Josh:about Tarv as he takes down one of the megas that run the city as part of the Third Corporate War.

01:05:00Jorge:Thank you.

01:05:12Josh:People really like him.

01:05:16Josh:You can tell, I think, with that diplomacy check that he's been sanitized from his original run because you pick up some of the original runs of his stories and then you find some of the more recent corporate approved ones.

01:05:29Josh:And he's become way less hardline on death to all corpos.

01:05:34Josh:But he's got a cool sidekick now.

01:05:37Josh:So, you know, that's fun.

01:05:39Jorge:What's the sidekick?

01:05:41Josh:It's a robot dog.

01:05:43Jorge:OK.

01:05:43Jorge:I'm going to try to be one of the earlier adaptations of him.

01:05:48Josh:Yes.

01:05:49Noah:I'm looking for any media on us.

01:05:53Josh:Sure.

01:05:54Josh:Another perception check.

01:05:56Tanner:You want me to do it?

01:05:56Jorge:Do I make a diplomacy check now?

01:05:58Noah:Yes.

01:05:59Noah:I will assist you.

01:06:00Tanner:Because I'll... I got a 50 to look for us media.

01:06:01Noah:I'm glad you did that.

01:06:03Josh:What, Jorge?

01:06:04Jorge:Do I make a diplomacy check now, or do that later?

01:06:07Jorge:Sorry, a deception check for a disguise.

01:06:11Josh:I will do that, like, when you get to the comment.

01:06:14Jorge:Okay.

01:06:22Josh:50.

01:06:24Josh:No.

01:06:26Josh:It's actually... What's interesting is you can't find any reference to your show.

01:06:33Josh:You actually can't find any reference to what company publishes your show or where it airs.

01:06:46Tanner:Hmm.

01:06:46Josh:Um...

01:06:46Jorge:We got to find that lady.

01:06:48Josh:You get a lot of people who do recognize you, kinda, and that they're all like, oh, you are that guy from that thing.

01:06:56Josh:It's on the tip of my tongue.

01:06:58Josh:I know who it is.

01:06:58Josh:But they can't place you.

01:06:59Jorge:Oh.

01:07:02Jorge:When the feet appeared on the show, everyone had it to get erased.

01:07:06Jorge:All the memories get erased.

01:07:09Noah:They don't remember our show.

01:07:10Noah:Thanks.

01:07:11Jorge:That's fucked up.

01:07:14Tanner:going to be hard to hit syndication like that.

01:07:20Josh:Anything else you guys wanted to do?

01:07:22Mike:French.

01:07:22Tanner:Something I'm thinking about, and I'm going to say this in schism.

01:07:27Josh:Schism?

01:07:28Mike:Oh.

01:07:30Tanner:Bonjour.

01:07:31Tanner:Anyway, this might not be something we do here necessarily, but we did discover that I guess Lev has something of value in this world.

01:07:44Tanner:Could be a way for us to seek out maybe a sketchy member of society to hook one of us up with a wallet or whatever it was called and some currency.

01:07:57Jorge:Yeah, I don't know.

01:07:59Tanner:I don't think here's the place, but I'm sure there's someone in an alley somewhere.

01:08:03Jorge:Yeah, I got a lot of wine.

01:08:03Noah:Yeah.

01:08:06Jorge:And vodka.

01:08:08Jorge:And soup, but I don't know if it's still good.

01:08:13Josh:It's like 15 levels old.

01:08:15Josh:Wait, where did you get the soup from?

01:08:17Jorge:The lighthouse?

01:08:17Josh:Marzo was the soup guy.

01:08:19Jorge:The lighthouse?

01:08:20Josh:Oh, right, you did.

01:08:20Jorge:I gave the bacon, egg, and cheese to Marzo, but I didn't give the soup yet.

01:08:21Josh:That's true, you have lighthouse soup.

01:08:26Josh:Yeah, you have lighthouse soup.

01:08:27Josh:Right.

01:08:29Mike:Can we also look for where to enter the cosplay contest?

01:08:34Josh:Yeah, that's easy.

01:08:36Josh:It's very well outlined.

01:08:40Josh:There is, in this central pavilion that you're in, in the center, there's this big stage.

01:08:45Tanner:Thank you.

01:08:45Josh:And it looks like they're taking sign-ups right now for people who want to enter.

01:08:51Josh:It's exciting.

01:08:52Josh:The grand prize includes an all-paid four-night, five-day trip to the Golden Spire.

01:09:00Josh:That's exciting.

01:09:02Noah:A golden star.

01:09:03Josh:Yeah.

01:09:06Josh:But yeah, no, it's easy enough to sign up.

01:09:07Josh:There isn't a fee to enter.

01:09:09Josh:You just need to write down who you are and what media you're portraying.

01:09:12Josh:And then you get a number and you get called back up to the stage.

01:09:18Mike:I mean, I guess the three of us that are still going to be possibly portraying the left.

01:09:25Jorge:Yeah, I'll go as the other guy.

01:09:27Noah:The left and the other guy.

01:09:29Josh:Okay, so that's three registrants.

01:09:31Noah:We're going to lose to a character we've never even heard of.

01:09:32Josh:You're all together.

01:09:33Josh:You are a party from the Weft from the Lighthouse with Imex.

01:09:38Mike:Yeah.

01:09:39Josh:Okay, and then you are obviously Tarv.

01:09:42Tanner:We're going to lose because there's only three of us.

01:09:45Josh:Okay, here are your numbers, and they hand out two numbers, one for the three of you and one for Tarv.

01:09:52Josh:And you're all entered.

01:10:00Noah:We're the actual character.

01:10:00Josh:It's very funny when you are a character from a TV show to show up and then be a character from a completely different TV show.

01:10:08Jorge:yeah you want me to this guy is somewhat here's the problem guys I would love to be left but no one knows who we are how are we going to win if no one knows

01:10:13Noah:We need to find a new Lev.

01:10:15Noah:Can I start looking around for a Lev?

01:10:23Noah:Because we're authentic.

01:10:24Mike:We'd be the best version.

01:10:24Noah:People will know.

01:10:27Mike:Do you see this?

01:10:28Mike:And Divex will motion to one of the casters or foecasters and be like, I was a child doing that, all right?

01:10:39Mike:If they want a demonstration of magic prowess, they're going to think it's created.

01:10:43Mike:They're going to think that I worked all night and all day to somehow trick them into these Giant holograms.

01:10:50Mike:They're gonna feel the heat.

01:10:52Mike:They're gonna feel the cold.

01:10:53Mike:They're gonna feel scared.

01:10:55Noah:And listen, listen, Lev, I don't want to be that guy, but having metal arms is... Wait, how are you going to look more like yourself than yourself?

01:10:55Mike:I'm gonna cast some spells.

01:10:57Josh:I'm going to desiccate the crowd.

01:10:59Josh:Sorry.

01:11:04Mike:Weird!

01:11:05Jorge:So how about, okay, you know, give me a second.

01:11:10Jorge:I'm going to go try to hide a little bit, turn myself into looking more like Lev and try to sign up for the Lev thing too.

01:11:19Josh:I mean...

01:11:22Jorge:Well, I wasn't, I was dressed as the other guy right now.

01:11:22Mike:It's possible.

01:11:24Josh:He was dressed as Tarv.

01:11:26Josh:So you're going to find a bathroom, take off your Tarv makeup, and then go back as Lev.

01:11:26Noah:So now he's...

01:11:26Jorge:Yeah.

01:11:32Josh:And you want to enter again?

01:11:32Jorge:Sign up as Lev and I'm going to enter twice.

01:11:33Josh:Okay, roll a deception check, please.

01:11:35Jorge:That's the goal.

01:11:44Tanner:Thank you.

01:11:45Jorge:Okay.

01:11:45Jorge:53.

01:11:46Josh:53.

01:11:47Josh:Okay, so the person barely even looking up from the clipboard where they're taking sign-in says, wow, this is the fifth person without any external Chrome that we've had sign up.

01:11:58Josh:Kind of weird religious convention are you guys coming from.

01:12:02Josh:But they will take the sign-up.

01:12:05Jorge:noted cool cool thank you yeah i i can i'm pretty sure i can quick disguise so in a single action i can change cool all right so

01:12:05Josh:Okay, here's your number.

01:12:07Josh:You gotta show up when you're called.

01:12:08Josh:Alright.

01:12:13Josh:You have all signed up for the cosplay competition.

01:12:25Josh:Listen, I've seen America's Got Talent.

01:12:31Mike:That's a hilarious consequence.

01:12:31Noah:you

01:12:36Jorge:All right, let's go.

01:12:37Jorge:Oh, yeah.

01:12:39Mike:He literally does this and when his hands move over his face, his face changes completely.

01:12:47Josh:I know what a quick change is when I see one.

01:12:49Mike:He's like one of those magicians.

01:12:53Mike:He just opens his jacket and it's like a different jacket somehow.

01:12:56Josh:I don't know.

01:12:58Jorge:By the way, who is the other people who didn't sign up without the external chroma?

01:13:05Josh:Some of them signed up under the WEFT and one guy's like a Tarv cosplayer.

01:13:10Jorge:Oh, okay.

01:13:12Jorge:I wonder if I know them.

01:13:14Jorge:All right.

01:13:16Josh:Maybe.

01:13:16Josh:I don't know.

01:13:18Jorge:Can I go up with the other width, guys?

01:13:20Josh:You'll get called up when your number is called.

01:13:23Jorge:Okay.

01:13:26Tanner:I hope that Solo Lev is the one that wins.

01:13:26Josh:Yes.

01:13:29Mike:Thank you.

01:13:32Noah:Wait, wait, so were you entered twice?

01:13:34Noah:Once as Tarv and once as yourself?

01:13:38Jorge:There's going to be Vampire, Pope, Lev.

01:13:38Noah:What?

01:13:40Jorge:And then there's going to be Darv.

01:13:44Noah:You're gonna beat yourself as another dude.

01:13:49Jorge:That would be so funny if I need to be first and second.

01:13:53Jorge:And they make you stand there.

01:13:55Jorge:And then I'm like, whoa.

01:13:57Jorge:All right.

01:14:01Josh:What are you guys doing?

01:14:02Tanner:Thank you.

01:14:03Jorge:So...

01:14:05Mike:It was a half hour or hour and a half until the Corpo presentation and then the Lighthouse talk thing is later.

01:14:17Josh:You have the corporate presentation, and then you have the cosplay competition, and then after that you have the talk show host conversation.

01:14:25Josh:Excuse you.

01:14:26Noah:Is there any history or propaganda on what Omnivox is?

01:14:32Noah:Anything about it?

01:14:33Josh:Oh, tons.

01:14:35Josh:This is sponsored by Omnivox, specifically to drum up positive sentiment for Omnivox.

01:14:42Josh:Omnivox's motto is all of the media, all of the time.

01:14:47Josh:They are as best as they will very happily tell you on a number of posters throughout the convention.

01:14:56Josh:They are the largest producer and distributor of your favorite things, whatever that is.

01:15:04Josh:They have hundreds of different TV channels listed.

01:15:09Josh:They run a number of websites that stream all minor of things.

01:15:12Josh:They've got radio shows.

01:15:15Josh:They've got a comic book line.

01:15:16Josh:They've got a book publishing company.

01:15:18Mike:Do they have a theme park?

01:15:18Josh:Whatever you want.

01:15:22Josh:Yeah.

01:15:22Josh:Of course they do.

01:15:23Josh:They have multiple theme parks.

01:15:25Noah:Omniland.

01:15:27Mike:Omniland and OmniWorld?

01:15:30Josh:Sure.

01:15:31Mike:All the worlds in one place.

01:15:34Mike:OmniWorld.

01:15:34Josh:It's actually just Epcot.

01:15:39Tanner:Oh, we should drink around the world.

01:15:43Mike:That's actually a good question.

01:15:44Mike:Is there a place to get drinks?

01:15:44Jorge:I don't know if they have drinks.

01:15:46Josh:Yeah.

01:15:47Josh:No, there's absolutely a place to get drinks.

01:15:50Jorge:So, can schism act as an external chroma?

01:15:54Josh:Um...

01:15:56Josh:Schism will say, I do not speak whatever protocol it is they speak here.

01:15:56Noah:you

01:16:01Josh:It's weird.

01:16:02Josh:Like, normally when I bump into old tech like this, I expect to just be able to interface it.

01:16:07Josh:I just have to fall back a few versions in the protocol.

01:16:10Josh:It's like these people either built completely from scratch or specifically ripped out any bit of Suntim tech they may have started out with, because there is nothing here that I'm compatible with.

01:16:20Tanner:Hmm.

01:16:22Josh:Yeah.

01:16:23Noah:I would just like to... This is DM, not schism.

01:16:26Josh:No, actually, they don't subscribe to Great Man History.

01:16:26Noah:I'd just like to read up on Omnivox and maybe like our illustrious founding and the whole like, this great man founded us and definitely wasn't a Nazi.

01:16:29Jorge:Hmm.

01:16:41Noah:Oh.

01:16:42Josh:They don't talk about their founder at all.

01:16:46Josh:It's actually really more talking about like a group effort of just, you know, a bunch of people for whatever reason got together and started making some shows that people really liked.

01:16:57Josh:And then that just ballooned.

01:16:59Josh:They kind of like gloss over the whole founding entirely.

01:17:03Tanner:Hmm.

01:17:06Noah:Seems sketchy.

01:17:07Noah:I'll point this out to the rest of the group.

01:17:10Jorge:Oh.

01:17:12Jorge:Okay.

01:17:13Josh:I did want to specifically comment on the alcohol a bit.

01:17:16Josh:It's called Synthol.

01:17:18Josh:They have a ton of it.

01:17:19Josh:It's just, you know, not real.

01:17:23Josh:It's an acquired taste, if you try any of it.

01:17:26Josh:It's not quite right.

01:17:27Josh:There's this weird bitterness to it.

01:17:27Jorge:So it doesn't... It doesn't get you drunk?

01:17:30Josh:No, it gets you drunk.

01:17:32Josh:It actually gets you drunk pretty fast.

01:17:32Jorge:Does it get... Does it get Lev drunk?

01:17:34Josh:It's strong.

01:17:38Mike:What blood alcohol?

01:17:38Josh:Yeah, I think it would.

01:17:41Mike:Oh.

01:17:42Jorge:Interesting.

01:17:44Josh:You're resistant.

01:17:44Josh:You're not immune completely to poison, are you?

01:17:47Jorge:Well, because regular alcohol doesn't get left drunk.

01:17:49Jorge:That's the only reason I was asking.

01:17:50Josh:I know.

01:17:50Josh:No, I understand.

01:17:51Jorge:Okay.

01:17:51Josh:I think it would.

01:17:52Jorge:Yeah.

01:17:53Josh:I think you would feel it.

01:17:55Jorge:Okay, I'm not going to get drunk.

01:17:55Josh:It's bad.

01:17:55Josh:It tastes terrible.

01:17:56Jorge:I'm just going to take a little... Okay.

01:17:59Josh:But it would get you drunk.

01:18:01Jorge:Okay.

01:18:03Josh:Yes.

01:18:04Noah:while everyone's getting drunk, I would like to go look at the comic books, specifically the older comic books, and see if there's any references to Omnivox, maybe in, like, the earlier Tarv comics or anything.

01:18:09Josh:Huh?

01:18:11Josh:Yeah.

01:18:18Josh:Oh, to see if Omnifox shows up in those comics?

01:18:22Josh:Yeah.

01:18:22Noah:Mm-hmm.

01:18:24Josh:What do you want to roll for this?

01:18:25Josh:What do you think would be a good fit?

01:18:26Josh:Because I'm going to default to perception, unless you have something that can benefit.

01:18:30Noah:Can I use diplomacy to try and talk to the comic book guy selling it to talk about Tarv and how they've sanitized him and how original Tarv, I learned all this from Lev five seconds ago, original Tarv is really sticking to the Voxes, or really sticking to the, not the Voxes, the Megas, and they've sanitized him so much.

01:18:53Tanner:The corpos.

01:18:55Jorge:Yeah, and meanwhile, there's like old school Tark next to him that's just like trying to get into character learning from other people.

01:18:55Noah:The Corpo.

01:19:01Noah:Yeah.

01:19:02Josh:Yeah, go for it.

01:19:04Noah:And be like, you know, we're big Tarv fans.

01:19:10Noah:Somehow work in Omnivox into that whole conversation.

01:19:13Noah:Like, oh, do they ever show up in any of the older ones?

01:19:17Josh:Yeah, roll a diplomacy check.

01:19:22Noah:Nice.

01:19:29Noah:Yeah.

01:19:31Noah:Does the beast point still work up here?

01:19:35Josh:Oh.

01:19:36Josh:You guys are in a different sphere.

01:19:37Noah:Dang.

01:19:39Noah:I wasn't sure how strong that worked.

01:19:41Jorge:I wish Quantum Entanglement worked over here.

01:19:45Noah:I got a 47.

01:19:47Josh:47.

01:19:47Josh:Okay.

01:19:49Josh:That is actually enough to get one of the old heads, one of the older looking people who's around some of the comics, fully decked out in not Tarv cosplay, but Tarv memorabilia.

01:20:01Josh:Like a graphic tee with a picture of Tarv looking heroic standing over some rubble.

01:20:06Josh:And he's got a little visor on that looks like it's Tarv themed, but also...

01:20:12Josh:like, old, like, not for sale memorabilia.

01:20:16Josh:He's one of the OG Tarv fans.

01:20:19Josh:And you do, like, get him talking about the old stuff.

01:20:22Josh:And he's like, listen, man, before the old rep fell and they built this new sanitized ones, you got, like, the OG ones.

01:20:30Josh:Tarv's whole deal was dismantling Omnivox.

01:20:35Josh:And, like, you know, then they bought him and they had to, like, change the whole structure.

01:20:40Josh:And, like, you know, the story doesn't play as well anymore with the whole, you know, bombing and all of that kind of stuff all those years ago, but still, like...

01:20:48Noah:have a story on them.

01:20:50Josh:Yeah, it's just, they ruined a perfectly good character.

01:20:53Josh:Now you have Tarv running around with other Omnivox-approved superheroes, and what, like, fighting people who don't want to die from eco-poisoning or something?

01:21:04Josh:Like, you get one palladium poisoning in, like, your local cistern, and then everybody suddenly got metal sickness, and Tarv's going around beating up the people who were reporting him.

01:21:16Josh:I don't get it.

01:21:17Josh:I only stock the old stuff.

01:21:19Noah:Do you have any stuff where he's openly anti-omnivox or calls out the CEO and COO and everything?

01:21:28Noah:I just say a bunch of acronyms I learned from looking at the people speaking.

01:21:29Josh:I need a... Oh, actually, you did roll a diplomacy check.

01:21:39Josh:So he'll say, listen, dude, all the digital copies got erased.

01:21:43Josh:And if you try scanning it, they don't let you move it anywhere.

01:21:46Josh:So only physical copies are good here.

01:21:50Josh:Don't tell no one.

01:21:51Josh:I do have a physical copy, second edition.

01:21:55Josh:Not the OG OG, but still pretty good.

01:21:59Josh:Not quite mint.

01:22:00Josh:It did fall out of its sleeve once.

01:22:02Josh:But it'll run you.

01:22:04Josh:It'll cost something.

01:22:05Josh:Because I don't want to just be giving it away.

01:22:07Josh:You sound like a true fan and all, but it's, you know.

01:22:10Noah:I'm a hard guy from day one.

01:22:10Jorge:Yeah, Lev will come over.

01:22:13Noah:Listen, we're not from here, right?

01:22:14Mike:Thank you.

01:22:16Noah:We're from Althane.

01:22:18Noah:So we don't have credits, but we do have maybe something a little better.

01:22:21Noah:And I'll look at Lev.

01:22:25Jorge:So is this like a kiosk or what is this?

01:22:29Jorge:Is this a store?

01:22:29Josh:Yeah, this is a stand.

01:22:33Josh:Like a comic kiosk that just some guy set up and is selling comics that he's been collecting.

01:22:39Jorge:Do you have any other more private place?

01:22:43Josh:No, dude.

01:22:45Jorge:All right, fine.

01:22:46Jorge:We have genuine wine.

01:22:49Jorge:We could trade some for the comic.

01:22:52Josh:Listen, dude, I'm not all that much of an alcohol drinker.

01:22:56Jorge:What else do you want?

01:22:57Jorge:Do you want some genuine gold?

01:23:00Josh:What would I do with gold?

01:23:02Jorge:I don't know.

01:23:03Jorge:It's very conductive.

01:23:06Josh:Right.

01:23:07Josh:You know what else is conductive?

01:23:08Noah:can we just take a look at it to make sure that you act like how do we know you're on the level

01:23:10Josh:Fucking everything, dude.

01:23:12Jorge:Alright, so what do you want Fred?

01:23:15Josh:Creds.

01:23:17Josh:You're the one that want to barter with me, so make me an offer.

01:23:20Josh:I'd take creds.

01:23:30Josh:I need another diplomacy check to get him to take it out in the open.

01:23:37Josh:Because so far all you guys have offered him is alcohol and gold.

01:23:42Jorge:Yeah.

01:23:43Noah:Thank you.

01:23:45Josh:54.

01:23:45Josh:Okay, he'll say.

01:23:46Josh:Okay, listen.

01:23:47Josh:And he will go underneath the table and he will put on gloves and take out an old, slightly yellowed comic book of Tarv.

01:24:00Josh:Second edition.

01:24:01Josh:This is the first comic in the series, though.

01:24:05Josh:And you can see that, like, the cover is where he got the thing on his shirt.

01:24:08Josh:It is a picture of Tarv standing on the rubble.

01:24:12Josh:But you will note that the rubble here does actually have, like, a logo half cracked in it.

01:24:18Josh:That is, you would recognize the megaphone logo of Omnivox that isn't present on his t-shirt.

01:24:26Jorge:So can I seek to try to estimate points?

01:24:33Josh:Yes.

01:24:33Josh:Roll a perception check.

01:24:35Jorge:OK.

01:24:36Noah:in Schism.

01:24:38Noah:Guys, we have a lead.

01:24:40Jorge:36.

01:24:42Josh:He has like 190 hit points.

01:24:45Jorge:OK.

01:24:46Noah:Really tough.

01:24:48Josh:Everybody here has a ton of metal chucked into their body.

01:24:53Jorge:Yeah, I'm just trying to think, because I have two charms.

01:24:57Jorge:I could try.

01:24:58Jorge:Sorry, so 8th level charm works on both 8th level.

01:24:59Mike:I have a confusion.

01:25:08Jorge:OK, so it works up to 10 people.

01:25:09Jorge:Yeah, my DC.

01:25:11Jorge:I'm going to, while he's looking at me, I'm going to cast a charm.

01:25:17Josh:The spell is Charm.

01:25:22Jorge:Yeah, give me one second.

01:25:23Jorge:I just need to figure out how that works with this.

01:25:26Noah:If worse comes to worse, I could try and just rip the Omnivox lore straight out of his head.

01:25:29Tanner:you

01:25:34Jorge:That might be a little aggressive.

01:25:35Mike:Gimme.

01:25:38Jorge:Sorry, I'm just trying to figure out where.

01:25:40Jorge:OK, so he's a humanoid, correct?

01:25:49Josh:He is human.

01:25:50Jorge:OK.

01:25:53Jorge:Yeah, I can do it.

01:25:59Jorge:I can cast Charm via looking at him with Manipulative Charm from Vampire Feed.

01:26:00Noah:you you

01:26:05Jorge:So it'll be at 8th level.

01:26:08Josh:Okay.

01:26:10Josh:Sure.

01:26:11Jorge:It'll be DC 42.

01:26:11Josh:You can...

01:26:13Josh:You can cast charm as a divine innate spell using a DC 42.

01:26:16Josh:Okay, so I need to make a will save for him.

01:26:21Josh:This is incapacitation, which doesn't apply here.

01:26:21Jorge:Yes.

01:26:31Josh:What is this man's modifier?

01:26:32Noah:Bye.

01:26:38Josh:Oh, that's not particularly good.

01:26:41Josh:It's not terrible, but...

01:26:44Josh:21.

01:26:47Josh:He got a 27 on his will save.

01:26:50Jorge:Critical fail.

01:26:51Josh:So he critically fails.

01:26:54Jorge:So he's now helpful.

01:26:57Josh:Correct.

01:26:59Jorge:Come on, man.

01:27:01Jorge:I'm assuming you've never had the taste of real wine.

01:27:05Jorge:This is a very good wine.

01:27:07Jorge:I promise it's not synth stuff.

01:27:10Jorge:You're going to feel good.

01:27:11Jorge:It's not going to feel like that terrible hangover.

01:27:13Jorge:It's a really good deal.

01:27:15Jorge:I'm sorry.

01:27:15Jorge:It's just...

01:27:19Jorge:He forgot his partner's birthday and she really likes this guy.

01:27:25Jorge:So he's already paying me to dress up and surprise her.

01:27:29Jorge:If we could also give her this comic, that would be really helpful, man.

01:27:35Jorge:Really helpful.

01:27:36Jorge:She's going to leave him.

01:27:38Josh:Okay, okay, okay.

01:27:39Noah:This is the background.

01:27:41Josh:Fine.

01:27:42Josh:Fine.

01:27:43Josh:I'll take the wine.

01:27:44Josh:I don't know, I could probably sell it or something.

01:27:47Jorge:Yes.

01:27:48Josh:Take the comic.

01:27:49Josh:You know, don't tell anybody you got it from me.

01:27:51Josh:You're not supposed to have them.

01:27:53Josh:So don't go around flashing it to people.

01:27:55Josh:And he will hand over the comic.

01:27:58Jorge:All right, I'm going to give him a 693 Azul.

01:28:06Josh:Okay.

01:28:06Jorge:I got a bunch of samples from Desmond I've never used.

01:28:09Josh:Sure.

01:28:11Josh:Not like the years or the vintages mean anything to this guy anyway, because they're years off for a different calendar.

01:28:15Jorge:Yeah.

01:28:17Jorge:Yeah, yeah.

01:28:19Josh:But he will he will take it and be like, wow, this is like in the universe and everything, isn't it?

01:28:25Jorge:Oh, yeah.

01:28:26Josh:All right.

01:28:28Jorge:Okay.

01:28:29Jorge:Thank you, man.

01:28:29Jorge:Thank you.

01:28:30Josh:Sure.

01:28:31Josh:Yeah.

01:28:31Josh:I mean, always happy to meet another Tarv fan, like a real Tarv fan.

01:28:35Jorge:Oh, yeah.

01:28:37Jorge:Do you think people are ready for it if I do the costume thing as the old school Tarv?

01:28:41Jorge:Do you think they're ready for it?

01:28:44Josh:I mean, I don't think you'll win.

01:28:46Josh:Omnifox is the judge, so you show up and then you start doing anti-Omnifox crap.

01:28:54Josh:I mean, they'll ask you to leave.

01:28:56Jorge:Do you think they'll give me a little speech after?

01:28:59Josh:No.

01:29:00Jorge:Okay, because I was going to do the regular tarv, and then they give me a speech, and I'm like, gah!

01:29:06Josh:I don't know why you would think they would give you a speech in the first place.

01:29:09Jorge:This is true.

01:29:10Jorge:I'm sorry.

01:29:11Jorge:I'm not from here.

01:29:11Josh:Yeah, you show up, you do... Dude, that's a different IP.

01:29:12Jorge:I'm from Ulfheim.

01:29:16Noah:you

01:29:17Josh:Tarv isn't from Alvain.

01:29:18Jorge:Yeah, well.

01:29:19Jorge:Yeah, I know.

01:29:20Jorge:Sorry.

01:29:21Jorge:All right.

01:29:22Jorge:Thank you.

01:29:23Josh:Sure.

01:29:24Jorge:Oh, wait.

01:29:24Jorge:What were you going to say, though?

01:29:25Jorge:You show up, and I do the what?

01:29:26Josh:You show up, you show off your costume.

01:29:29Josh:If you have any effects or whatever, you do those and then you get off the stage.

01:29:32Jorge:What's a really cool effect I should do?

01:29:35Josh:Well, Tarv's famous thing is when both of his arms transform into machine guns.

01:29:40Josh:So, if you could do that.

01:29:40Jorge:Cool.

01:29:41Josh:Okay.

01:29:42Jorge:I can do that.

01:29:43Jorge:Awesome.

01:29:43Mike:Thank you.

01:29:48Josh:Alright.

01:29:50Jorge:All right.

01:29:50Noah:As we're walking away, I look at Lev and say, I don't want to say it, but I feel like Tarv's kind of a ripoff of me.

01:29:51Josh:You guys...

01:30:05Tanner:Are you anti corporation?

01:30:07Noah:I only recently learned what a corporation was, but I don't really like it.

01:30:12Noah:I don't know.

01:30:14Noah:If they're all run by the Feep, then I guess that's bad.

01:30:18Josh:Can your arms turn into machine guns?

01:30:21Noah:Not yet.

01:30:23Noah:Mostly because I don't know what a machine gun is, but...

01:30:28Josh:Well...

01:30:28Tanner:Uh...

01:30:29Tanner:If we have a little more time before the next thing, before the summit thing, I want to look for a table or I guess maybe even on the schedule if there is a presentation on different implants or the companies that do certain kinds of implants.

01:30:54Noah:Okay.

01:30:55Josh:Oh, yeah.

01:30:56Josh:No, absolutely.

01:30:58Josh:The one thing you definitely can find here is somebody who wants to sell you something.

01:31:03Tanner:I think what I'm trying to do is

01:31:03Josh:So if you're looking for the sponsors of this that sell implants, there are definitely a few around.

01:31:11Josh:I don't think they'd have like a here attend and we will give you a list of all of the things you can purchase from us.

01:31:16Josh:But they all have booths that do advertise their services.

01:31:19Josh:So if you're looking for something in particular, absolutely.

01:31:32Tanner:kind of do a holistic view, like go to each booth, kind of look at the pamphlets and try to get a basic understanding of like how they get this technology to interact with the biology of people's bodies.

01:31:36Josh:Oh, absolutely.

01:31:48Josh:Okay, then I want you to do a medicine check.

01:31:52Josh:You are definitely cutting through a little bit of corporate speak.

01:31:56Josh:It's not like these are papers on how this is done, but they do brag about their new technologies and all that kind of stuff.

01:32:01Tanner:Yeah.

01:32:07Jorge:And then while we're doing all of this, I'm going to start doing a So Rumor.

01:32:13Jorge:And that's just to be like, wow, people are really hyped up from this Lighthouse show.

01:32:20Jorge:And the Weft might be.

01:32:21Jorge:And all these people love this show.

01:32:22Jorge:Have you seen this show?

01:32:23Jorge:It's the best show here.

01:32:24Jorge:And just start trying to gas up the Lighthouse show.

01:32:27Josh:Absolutely.

01:32:29Josh:I want you to roll this with disadvantage.

01:32:32Josh:This is a misfortune effect, if that's relevant to anything.

01:32:32Jorge:OK.

01:32:34Noah:I'm just going to hide in a corner and read this comic book.

01:32:41Josh:Okay, sure.

01:32:42Mike:Is there like...

01:32:45Tanner:Alright, I'm going to make a medicine check.

01:32:47Josh:Yeah, what'd you give your medicine?

01:32:53Tanner:47.

01:32:56Josh:Okay, so with the 47, there are two major implant companies here.

01:33:03Josh:One of them is actually a subsidiary of Omnivox.

01:33:06Josh:It's Omnivox Neurometrics.

01:33:08Josh:The other one is Celestia Bioforge.

01:33:11Josh:Both of them work on typical general implants in that they don't have specific military weaponry or stuff like that.

01:33:21Josh:You gather that those are different companies.

01:33:22Tanner:Yeah.

01:33:24Josh:Both of them talk about specifically, I mean, they make a lot of references to electronics that I think you just don't have the background to understand how that works.

01:33:35Josh:But you do get the general idea around a lot of these is to effectively make some kind of artificial nerves.

01:33:45Josh:that get bound magically to actual nerves so that they present to the brain as new things.

01:33:54Josh:And then Omnivox Neurometrics specifically also makes things that get implanted into the brain specifically that work the other way.

01:34:02Josh:They bond to neurons in the brain to provide new faculties for the brain to use.

01:34:08Josh:They're not giving away trade secrets here, and even if they were, I think you just don't have the background to look at it and at a glance be like, oh, I know how this works.

01:34:17Josh:But, I mean, the general principle of hooking something up to act like a kind of magical prosthetic, I think, is something that Anric could wrap his head around easily.

01:34:30Josh:So yeah, you have that if you want.

01:34:33Josh:Also, I think as just as generally part of the search, you will note through all of it that it seems that it is so common that effectively everybody has it.

01:34:41Josh:There's a specific implant called a cerebral processor that gives you native connection to the RET.

01:34:48Josh:but also is where your wallet is stored and how you communicate with people.

01:34:54Josh:It looks like it kind of does some of the job of what Schism does for you guys in that you can communicate entirely mentally, but it has a lot of features that are built specifically for the local RET.

01:35:05Tanner:Hmm.

01:35:06Jorge:And there's a religious group that don't get them.

01:35:09Josh:Yes.

01:35:10Josh:I mean, you would not have picked that up like looking at the different implant companies things, but Liv would have with this conversation.

01:35:18Josh:There is at least one group.

01:35:20Josh:First of all, there are religious groups here still.

01:35:22Josh:And secondly, there is a group that for one reason or the other doesn't get implants.

01:35:28Josh:So it's weird, but it's not so completely unheard of.

01:35:32Tanner:Is, can I find a price for a cerebral processor?

01:35:37Josh:Absolutely.

01:35:38Josh:A baseline cerebral processor go for around one and a half thousand creds.

01:35:44Josh:But, you know, that's like base model.

01:35:46Josh:It'd be slower than some of the better ones you can get.

01:35:48Josh:And it's not even getting updates anymore.

01:35:51Josh:It's just in like long term service repair mode.

01:35:55Josh:They're not actually actively updating it anymore.

01:35:57Jorge:Do they install it, or can you just buy the processor?

01:36:00Josh:You have to buy the processor and then you're supposed to then go to a trusted ripper to install it for you.

01:36:07Jorge:All right.

01:36:07Jorge:We might be able to buy one and then just try to give it to Schism to install it himself, if he's willing.

01:36:11Noah:Yeah.

01:36:17Mike:Sure.

01:36:17Tanner:Well, currently we have zero credits, but, you know, perhaps we can get there.

01:36:18Mike:But how do we get the wallet when we don't have the wallet?

01:36:23Jorge:Well, I'm busy selling rumors about us.

01:36:26Jorge:I could try selling wine later.

01:36:27Josh:What did you get?

01:36:28Josh:That's with disadvantage?

01:36:29Jorge:So I got a 50 SEP.

01:36:33Josh:That's crazy.

01:36:34Jorge:Without disadvantage, I would have got a natural 2062.

01:36:38Josh:Nice.

01:36:40Josh:Okay, yeah, so you are spreading rumors.

01:36:42Josh:It is harder than you would expect.

01:36:44Josh:Like, people just kind of nod and then push you away.

01:36:47Josh:But you feel like you have gotten a few people to, you know, overhear you as you're spreading this rumor, and you feel like it's caught a little bit.

01:36:57Jorge:And I'm doing it not dressed as Lev.

01:36:58Jorge:I'm doing it dressed as the other guy at Acklin.

01:37:00Jorge:Did you see that Lev guy?

01:37:01Josh:Sure.

01:37:02Jorge:He looks so good.

01:37:04Josh:Absolutely.

01:37:08Jorge:All right.

01:37:09Josh:Okay.

01:37:09Jorge:Listen to talk show.

01:37:11Jorge:Oh, listen to CEO.

01:37:11Josh:Okay, so you're going to the Omnivox panel.

01:37:14Jorge:Yes.

01:37:15Mike:Thank you.

01:37:15Josh:Absolutely.

01:37:19Josh:So the way that the panel is structured is it's effectively like a 15 minute presentation in the beginning.

01:37:26Josh:That's just, you know how in front of every Marvel movie there's the whole, it shows the Marvel with all of the different IPs and clips and stuff from the movies.

01:37:34Josh:It's that effectively.

01:37:35Josh:It's a reel of all of the cool IPs that Omnivox has either released in the past year or releasing upcoming.

01:37:42Josh:coming or favorite media and all of that kind of stuff.

01:37:45Josh:And then it kind of opens up to there's a microphone and there's a queue that's already forming of people to stand behind the microphone and ask a question to their favorite actors or to, you know, the CEO of the company.

01:37:59Josh:Just just random stuff.

01:38:01Josh:What are you here for specifically?

01:38:03Josh:Because a lot of it is going to be gibberish to people who have not watched TV other than the one that they're on.

01:38:11Josh:So.

01:38:15Mike:Obviously history stuff, if they ever talk about like heritage of the company,

01:38:20Jorge:I doubt they would.

01:38:21Josh:They're not.

01:38:23Josh:I think you would note, though, if you're looking out for that kind of stuff, the questions are not being asked by the people with the question.

01:38:30Josh:They tell it to somebody who then relays the question along the lines.

01:38:35Josh:So you would gather that even if somebody was asking a question about the history of the company, it probably wouldn't get through.

01:38:45Noah:Is the line super long?

01:38:48Josh:It depends on how long you wait, but it's steadily growing throughout the seminar.

01:38:54Noah:I'll get in line.

01:38:56Jorge:I'll change outfits to a third look and then get in line.

01:39:00Josh:What are you looking like now?

01:39:03Jorge:What is another famous comic guy, just generic?

01:39:06Josh:This was my fault for asking.

01:39:08Josh:It's Superman.

01:39:12Mike:All right.

01:39:12Jorge:Okay.

01:39:13Jorge:I'm Superman.

01:39:15Josh:Okay.

01:39:16Noah:I guess Superman is really an easy title to go with.

01:39:18Josh:I've already established that Tropicana's in this universe.

01:39:21Josh:It's not crazy for Superman to be here, too.

01:39:23Jorge:That's true.

01:39:27Josh:Such a generic name.

01:39:29Josh:Um, okay, sure.

01:39:29Jorge:Yeah.

01:39:32Noah:It's like calling him Great Guy.

01:39:34Josh:Yeah, he is.

01:39:35Jorge:And I have Excalibur.

01:39:37Jorge:A fake Excalibur, but I have a fake Excalibur next to me.

01:39:40Josh:How would you know what Excalibur looks like?

01:39:42Jorge:I don't know.

01:39:42Jorge:I figured it might be in this universe.

01:39:44Jorge:I guess not.

01:39:45Jorge:It might be in this planet.

01:39:45Josh:Excalibur is in Astra.

01:39:48Noah:Yeah, Mike's character currently the saint of golden hearts as Excalibur.

01:39:48Jorge:That's what I'm saying.

01:39:49Josh:It's not in this universe.

01:39:49Jorge:I didn't know.

01:39:50Jorge:All right, all right.

01:39:51Jorge:I'm crazy to think that there's Superman and there's not another TV show there.

01:39:52Josh:Excalibur's on Earth.

01:39:53Josh:You know where Excalibur is.

01:39:56Jorge:Crazy to think there's no TV show on Earth.

01:39:58Jorge:All right, all right, fine.

01:40:01Jorge:yeah i'm just mike i'm just mike you

01:40:05Mike:Saint of golden hearts.

01:40:07Mike:The thug that was knocking out and confusing people for fun in one of the missions.

01:40:12Noah:That is not what history says.

01:40:16Josh:Okay, so you're online.

01:40:18Noah:You are a reformed man, according to history.

01:40:23Josh:Eventually.

01:40:24Josh:I guess Dawn got online first, so you would get to maybe halfway through the seminar.

01:40:31Josh:You're on deck, and one of the helpers says, and what's the question we would like to ask?

01:40:36Noah:Yes, I'm a big fan of The Lighthouse with Immix.

01:40:39Noah:I was wondering if they had any future plans to maybe expand that or if it would... I know it's sort of a talk show, but I wanted to know if they had any sort of future plans for that show and that franchise.

01:40:50Josh:Okay, and you see that they're scrolling through a kind of tablet.

01:40:52Jorge:kind of clap.

01:40:56Josh:It's similar to the spanners that you've seen before.

01:40:59Josh:I don't see that piece of media.

01:41:01Josh:What channel does it air on?

01:41:03Josh:I need to know who to direct the question to.

01:41:03Noah:Um...

01:41:06Noah:I guess to the COO, it's the lighthouse with an aspect of Immix.

01:41:13Josh:Yeah, I heard the title.

01:41:15Josh:What channel is it on?

01:41:17Josh:Because I don't see it here.

01:41:18Josh:I'm searching for it and it's not popping up.

01:41:21Josh:We're only answering questions about IP that's aired this past year or next year.

01:41:25Josh:OK.

01:41:27Noah:Okay, it's a little bit old show.

01:41:28Noah:My apologies.

01:41:31Josh:Do you have any other questions you wanted to ask?

01:41:36Noah:I'll get back in line.

01:41:37Josh:OK.

01:41:38Josh:And you get pushed out of line.

01:41:41Noah:I will relay this information to my compadres.

01:41:45Tanner:Hmm.

01:41:46Mike:Interesting.

01:41:48Tanner:It's not showing up.

01:41:51Noah:Did I finish the comic book?

01:41:53Noah:Did I have time to finish that?

01:41:54Josh:Yeah, absolutely.

01:41:57Josh:It's the first comic.

01:41:59Josh:So it's actually, if anything, a little bit more of an origin story.

01:42:04Tanner:Where did the machine guns come from?

01:42:05Josh:Talking of...

01:42:07Josh:Yeah, exactly.

01:42:08Josh:Well, even before that, you need to know how Tarv got his two metal arms.

01:42:12Noah:Been there.

01:42:12Josh:So this opens up with a construction accident.

01:42:17Josh:Tarv is a worker building Omnivox's newest headquarters in the center of Terminus.

01:42:25Josh:And a freak accident gets both of his arms ripped off by a crane.

01:42:31Josh:Um...

01:42:32Josh:And Omnivox won't pay his insurance.

01:42:36Josh:So he cannot get his arms replaced, and he gets laid off because obviously he can't operate the machinery without any arms.

01:42:43Josh:And eventually he falls into the slums because he can't pay rent anymore, where he gets picked up by a down-on-his-luck ripper who lost his license because he accidentally killed in operation.

01:42:59Josh:the COO of another larger company, Crash Cart Cyberworks, where they team up and he gets new arms installed.

01:43:09Josh:They're prototypes, but they've got the newest technology that this Ripper's been working on in his spare time.

01:43:14Josh:All of that fun stuff.

01:43:17Josh:The only, like, particularly interesting thing here is there is a scene where Tarp is in a conference room of Omnivox's begging for them to just cover, like, Workman's Comp just so that he can continue to work for them.

01:43:33Josh:And the person who denies him, it's like, there's like a food stain.

01:43:39Josh:on it so you can't actually see the person who denied the request and it's like annoying because the the comic was supposed to be almost mint condition and it was a little crumpled but this is the first actual content that gets covered up by you know just not taking well care of the comic

01:43:57Tanner:Is the... Can you see this person on that page of the comic?

01:44:04Josh:That person would be on the page of the comic, but there's a smudge that covers most of the... You only get the suit, so you know that the person is there, but the facial features, all that stuff is completely covered up.

01:44:16Tanner:Are there any... I guess, would there be, like, a logo on the suit, or is it just a plain suit?

01:44:22Josh:I'll let you roll a perception check if you're looking over Dom's shoulder as he's reading this comic.

01:44:23Noah:Is there a year printed that we can compare to the current year?

01:44:26Jorge:And did they say who he was meeting with there?

01:44:30Jorge:Or just like...

01:44:30Josh:In the comic, it's just in a thought bubble coming out of Targ's head.

01:44:36Josh:It says, I'm talking to an exec at Omnivox.

01:44:37Tanner:you

01:44:40Josh:An exec is like, bolded.

01:44:42Josh:But it doesn't say who.

01:44:50Josh:Yeah, you would know that this comic is old.

01:44:53Josh:It's like, I don't know, 350 years old, something like that.

01:44:59Noah:That's a great run for a comic book.

01:45:01Noah:Wow.

01:45:02Josh:Well, I mean, the comic book has had multiple reboots.

01:45:08Josh:What did you get for your perception?

01:45:11Josh:Unfortunately, with a 50, there aren't any distinguishing things.

01:45:14Josh:It's just a suit.

01:45:16Tanner:The artist didn't give him detailed cufflinks.

01:45:19Josh:No, the artist did not give him detailed cufflinks.

01:45:24Tanner:All right.

01:45:25Jorge:Did I get my question yet?

01:45:25Tanner:Well, either this is a big coincidence or this is our guy.

01:45:30Noah:Yeah.

01:45:31Jorge:That's okay.

01:45:33Josh:Yeah, well, we'll get to Lev is now up in line and the same helper that was talking to you.

01:45:33Tanner:All right.

01:45:38Josh:Do you have a question?

01:45:40Jorge:Yes, I was wondering if you could bring back the Lighthouse show with aspect of Imic Summit.

01:45:46Jorge:I just really loved the meta conversation about the story as it goes through.

01:45:53Jorge:It's really compelling.

01:45:55Jorge:Very interesting if you can put it on there.

01:45:55Josh:I'm sorry.

01:45:56Josh:That's not on the list of media that we're talking about today.

01:46:00Josh:Do you have anything else that you want to ask about?

01:46:01Jorge:Oh, I'm going to attempt to lie and be like, I'm sure it's just a glitch.

01:46:05Jorge:It's a really popular show.

01:46:07Jorge:It just came out.

01:46:08Jorge:It was just a little bit older, you know, a couple of years.

01:46:11Jorge:I heard there might be a reboot.

01:46:14Josh:Roll a deception check.

01:46:16Josh:The DC is very high.

01:46:18Josh:I'm sorry.

01:46:23Jorge:Ooh!

01:46:25Jorge:I'll just take that.

01:46:29Josh:If it's not on the list, it's not approved.

01:46:31Josh:If you have anything you want to ask about current IP...

01:46:37Jorge:Yeah, are any of the original talent that was involved in... Sorry, Josh, what's the dude's name with the arms?

01:46:46Josh:Arf of the Rising Moon?

01:46:47Jorge:Yeah, still in Omnivant?

01:46:53Josh:You don't need to... I can answer that.

01:46:54Josh:No.

01:46:55Josh:The original show aired, like, three centuries ago.

01:47:02Jorge:I'm just gonna look at her like that.

01:47:03Jorge:Then just walk away.

01:47:05Josh:Sir, if you don't have a question, you need to ask it.

01:47:06Jorge:I'm just gonna walk away.

01:47:08Jorge:That's it.

01:47:10Jorge:I'm just gonna be like, oh, shit.

01:47:13Jorge:Okay.

01:47:14Jorge:And then walk away.

01:47:16Josh:Absolutely.

01:47:19Jorge:So, guys, I've learned that this has been running for three centuries.

01:47:23Tanner:It's from three centuries ago.

01:47:25Jorge:I know I'm probably learning the most about this than all of you guys, but...

01:47:30Noah:What does that mean?

01:47:35Jorge:Yeah, what about it?

01:47:40Jorge:Oh, shit!

01:47:43Jorge:Yeah, that's pretty cool.

01:47:44Mike:It's so cool.

01:47:44Mike:It's so old and mint.

01:47:46Mike:The golden spider.

01:47:46Jorge:Yeah.

01:47:48Noah:It doesn't smell like mint at all.

01:47:48Jorge:It sucks that there's just one spot that got food on it, though, you know?

01:47:52Noah:Yeah, that's kind of lame.

01:47:53Noah:What's that, like tomato sauce?

01:47:55Tanner:Guys, we're gonna have to break into their headquarters.

01:47:59Tanner:You know that, right?

01:48:00Jorge:Do you think that the first place is going to get us a room?

01:48:04Jorge:near their headquarters in the golden thing.

01:48:10Noah:Yeah, where?

01:48:10Jorge:Yeah.

01:48:11Noah:Josh, is there any way to like... There's got to be like a... Our great headquarters in Santa Monica, California sort of thing.

01:48:12Josh:Oh, yeah.

01:48:21Josh:I mean, that's like no perception check necessary.

01:48:24Josh:Omnivox's headquarters are currently in orbit around the planet in what used to be Station 7, which is a now defunct TV station that they have retrofitted to be their headquarters.

01:48:42Josh:The reason that that information is so publicly available is because it's called the Golden Spire.

01:48:50Josh:It is a... The whole space station itself contains Omnifox's headquarters, but its main attraction is a casino that is for the ultra-wealthy that is located in space and is actually a great prize for a random cosplay convention.

01:48:50Jorge:Yes.

01:49:12Tanner:Okay, Lev, we are not going to win as the Weft, so you need to do a modern take on Tarv.

01:49:20Josh:Uh...

01:49:21Tanner:That's really good.

01:49:22Jorge:Okay, so you guys need to help me because I got all the costume down.

01:49:25Jorge:I don't know how to make these fucking guns.

01:49:27Jorge:I don't know how to make guns.

01:49:28Noah:I have it.

01:49:31Noah:I grab the sides of Lev's face and pull him in real close.

01:49:35Noah:This is what I was born to do.

01:49:37Noah:I fought the moon my entire life to make machine gun arms.

01:49:43Jorge:Cool.

01:49:44Tanner:But can you put them on Levmir?

01:49:49Noah:Lev, do you need your arms?

01:49:50Noah:It'd be a lot more authentic if you didn't have arms.

01:49:53Jorge:Oh, I would prefer to keep them unless you can reattach them.

01:49:58Noah:I can't do that.

01:49:58Tanner:But... But, Dawn, this is a cosplay competition, right?

01:49:59Noah:If they come off, they're not going back on.

01:50:01Noah:Yeah, I guess.

01:50:03Tanner:So these people are using props.

01:50:06Tanner:Like, can you build some kind of prop that he can use that might look...

01:50:10Noah:I guess if it's inauthentic.

01:50:12Noah:I'll... I will... I'll...

01:50:15Josh:Psychotype?

01:50:16Jorge:If this helps you, Don, I also have two adamantine ingots.

01:50:23Jorge:One... Two Inaburk Ingrits, one Jesset Alloy, one Sovereign Steel, and one Psykite?

01:50:31Jorge:Psykite?

01:50:32Tanner:Take it tight.

01:50:34Jorge:Psykolite?

01:50:35Jorge:I don't know.

01:50:36Jorge:Whatever that... Yes.

01:50:37Josh:I thought it was both.

01:50:39Jorge:You didn't specify if it was the hot kind or the cold kind.

01:50:44Josh:Is it not?

01:50:44Jorge:Oh!

01:50:45Jorge:I thought you had to pick one or the other.

01:50:47Josh:Let me double check.

01:50:49Josh:Yeah, I'm going to say it's both.

01:50:49Mike:mesquite

01:50:53Jorge:Oh, yeah.

01:50:53Jorge:In his raw state, it's either scalding hot or freezing cold.

01:50:59Noah:Yeah, Lev, let's go.

01:51:02Josh:You can choose.

01:51:03Josh:Once you forge it into something, you'll have to choose one or the other, but as is right now, it's both.

01:51:10Noah:I'll go into the orb real fast.

01:51:11Noah:I'll make the greatest cosplay of all time.

01:51:16Noah:It'll be good.

01:51:17Jorge:Cool.

01:51:18Jorge:All right.

01:51:21Josh:Okay.

01:51:22Noah:I will zoop into the orb and attempt to make the greatest Tarv cosplay of all time.

01:51:28Josh:Okay, so now is the time that I would have the deception check to actually make the costume here.

01:51:38Josh:And then on top of that, we'll need a crafting check.

01:51:38Jorge:Okay.

01:51:44Josh:for you to make the machine guns.

01:51:47Josh:And then I'm actually going to require a medicine check to affix them in such a way that looks like something that Tarv would have.

01:51:47Tanner:you you you

01:51:53Josh:Because, like, Tarv is a character, but there are real people in this universe that have machine guns for hands.

01:52:01Josh:So, you know, you need to at least hit that bar.

01:52:07Noah:I'm going to use Mythic Point.

01:52:10Josh:Okay.

01:52:10Noah:That's low.

01:52:13Noah:If I'm legendary, is it plus 2 for the Mythic Point?

01:52:16Noah:Plus 4?

01:52:18Josh:Yeah.

01:52:19Tanner:Hello.

01:52:19Jorge:I will reroll mine.

01:52:22Noah:Oh my god.

01:52:25Tanner:Hello.

01:52:28Tanner:Hello.

01:52:29Noah:I will use... I'm going to use Lev's Coin.

01:52:29Tanner:Hello.

01:52:32Noah:Okay.

01:52:33Jorge:I bought some more coins, too.

01:52:36Jorge:So I have a total of, it's not a crit, but it is a 64.

01:52:40Tanner:Hello.

01:52:43Noah:Doesn't work.

01:52:45Noah:Dang.

01:52:45Josh:Okay.

01:52:46Noah:I got a 50.

01:52:48Josh:Okay, and then I need a medicine check.

01:52:52Jorge:Yeah.

01:52:53Jorge:So I got a 64 deception, 50 crafting, and I hand him one of the coins, and I go, flip this if you fuck up.

01:52:58Tanner:Okay, okay, that's me.

01:53:06Tanner:I got a 57.

01:53:11Josh:Okay, absolutely.

01:53:13Josh:The three of those combined is a success.

01:53:18Josh:Um, you are kind of modeling it off of what you see people walking around.

01:53:23Josh:You are, um, you have the advantage of you are trying to make a character that is as close to the modern time in Terminus as to us the Victorian times would be.

01:53:37Josh:Uh, so you are making old school tech by the perspective of the people in Terminus now.

01:53:37Jorge:Okay.

01:53:44Josh:Um, that said...

01:53:47Josh:You know, you're many, many light years away from Althane, but you have just single-handedly completely revolutionized firearm manufacturing for Althane with the invention of the first rapid-fire machine gun.

01:53:57Noah:Fully functioning guns.

01:54:03Josh:So... They're guns!

01:54:05Jorge:They're not fake.

01:54:11Josh:These are not props!

01:54:12Josh:These are guns!

01:54:15Josh:So you have attached to you, to match the comic books, to make it as realistic as possible, you know that Tarv puts his hands out, and then the hand splits into a series of seven barrels on each arm that rotate at... How fast do those rotate?

01:54:31Josh:Do you tell me?

01:54:33Josh:You don't tell me.

01:54:34Josh:That sucks.

01:54:35Josh:I was hoping it would give me the RPM stat blocks, you know?

01:54:39Josh:He wears a strap of bullets across his chest that then feeds into his arms.

01:54:51Josh:He can fire off a ridiculous amount at once, and you now have, attached to your hands...

01:54:57Josh:for the sake of this uh um cosplay uh two heavy machine guns um which do 7d10 piercing damage at a range of 120 feet uh one second let me send you the stat block you can but that you know that you would lose you points for the competition

01:55:12Tanner:Thank you.

01:55:13Jorge:Can we put like blanks in them right now?

01:55:23Noah:They want real bullets in this thing?

01:55:23Jorge:Okay, so now.

01:55:26Jorge:Wait, so lose it that we shouldn't be firing it or losing it that we shouldn't fire real bullets?

01:55:31Josh:No, they want real bullets.

01:55:33Jorge:Okay.

01:55:33Josh:You're supposed to match the character.

01:55:35Josh:Yeah!

01:55:36Jorge:Okay.

01:55:38Noah:I will put in real bullets.

01:55:44Josh:Okay.

01:55:46Josh:Each machine gun can hold 100 rounds before needing to reload.

01:55:52Noah:We'll make a hundred real bullets real fast.

01:55:56Josh:Okay.

01:55:59Josh:Um, you have two machine gun hands now.

01:56:02Josh:Uh, this is, you think, the, uh, you guys have seen a ton of Tarv cosplayers at this point.

01:56:07Josh:Uh, you know, not to toot your own horns, this is definitely the best Tarv cosplay that you guys have seen.

01:56:14Josh:It's a question of, you know, whether or not the judges will actually take the, the Tarv cosplay.

01:56:15Jorge:Hell yeah.

01:56:20Josh:Uh, but if it's just, like, one-to-one, he, Lev could have walked out of the comic.

01:56:26Josh:Uh, and you'd buy it.

01:56:29Jorge:At least we got some good weapons if we need to use them.

01:56:30Mike:Oh, Lev.

01:56:33Noah:Thank you.

01:56:34Mike:It's a obscene way to get them.

01:56:36Mike:Lev, remember, you do the bidding of corporations.

01:56:41Mike:You do the bidding of corporations.

01:56:42Jorge:Fuck.

01:56:43Jorge:Everyone who's not Omnivamp, you know, I'm going to be like, die, you palladium reporting scum.

01:56:43Mike:They're going to want you to say something up there.

01:56:47Mike:You're going to have to get it.

01:56:52Josh:Heavy.

01:56:55Jorge:Yeah.

01:56:55Tanner:Wait, Jackson, what machine gun level are these?

01:56:56Mike:But the name...

01:57:00Tanner:Hell yeah.

01:57:04Mike:You do have to get the name correct, though, so it's Omnivox.

01:57:08Jorge:Lev could get that.

01:57:09Jorge:Jorge can't.

01:57:10Mike:Okay, okay.

01:57:12Mike:I thought it was like, of course, of course, I love Omni people or whatever they are.

01:57:16Jorge:all right yeah

01:57:22Josh:Okay, so you think you have well prepared for the cosplay competition.

01:57:27Josh:You had to leave the seminar early to get this done on time, but you guys did get it in with your ridiculously high rolls.

01:57:34Josh:Under the wire, you know, you just found a conference room that wasn't actively being used and just chucked together two machine gun arts.

01:57:43Josh:Easy peasy.

01:57:45Josh:And as you're finishing up your testing, you do a quick rev of your arms just to make sure that everything's working.

01:57:54Josh:You hear over a loudspeaker the call for participants in the cosplay competition to come to the Central Pavilion.

01:57:58Jorge:Really?

01:58:02Josh:They will be calling your numbers up one at a time so that you could go in front of the judges.

01:58:10Josh:So there are...

01:58:13Josh:You guys would have about the same number because you registered at the same time.

01:58:16Josh:It's Lev who has a number that's like 50 places behind everybody else because he went back afterwards to re-sign up.

01:58:24Jorge:Wait a second, guys.

01:58:25Jorge:The girl we met confirmed works for this company because she said she'd vote for us.

01:58:33Jorge:And only this company.

01:58:36Jorge:Regardless, let's go.

01:58:36Noah:We just do both.

01:58:38Noah:We'll be the one.

01:58:38Jorge:Oh, I'm doing ghost.

01:58:40Jorge:I can be live.

01:58:41Jorge:I can be very live.

01:58:43Noah:We'll do both.

01:58:45Josh:Okay.

01:58:48Josh:So you get into, like, the backstage area of the waiting room.

01:58:54Josh:You see a ton of people throughout this room dressed in all manner of costumes.

01:58:59Josh:Some of them look like people who would fit in Althane, no problem.

01:59:03Josh:Some of them look weirdly primitive compared to you.

01:59:05Josh:There's at least one guy who's, like, crockneck, who's just, like...

01:59:09Josh:loincloth, like, barbarian type deal.

01:59:13Josh:There are plenty of people who look way too advanced, like wearing suits and stuff.

01:59:19Josh:Everybody's got a weapon.

01:59:20Josh:That's, like, a weird thing about everybody in a cosplay.

01:59:21Jorge:Are you going to fight something?

01:59:23Josh:You know that there are TV shows that involve no weapons in them, like dramas and stuff.

01:59:29Josh:And for some reason, everyone has a weapon.

01:59:31Josh:Um...

01:59:32Josh:Uh, but, uh, eventually the, the first number out of the three numbers that you guys have gotten would be the one for the weft.

01:59:41Josh:Uh, the three of you that signed up as part of the, um, part of the, the lighthouse with an aspect of MX.

01:59:49Josh:Um, so you are all ushered onto the stage, uh, where you see a huge crowd of people that have all kind of packed into standing space, but directly in front of the stage is a, um,

02:00:03Josh:is a table with three people sat behind it.

02:00:07Josh:All of them are familiar to you.

02:00:10Josh:Directly in the center, you would recognize this as Braith, the CEO of Omnivox, who is at the audition.

02:00:21Josh:The other two people on their left and right are the two people that you bumped into.

02:00:27Josh:when you walked out of the... when you first walked out of your inn when you showed up to Syrin.

02:00:36Josh:Tall, weirdly lanky elephant features.

02:00:39Josh:They look like twins, but fraternal.

02:00:41Josh:One's male, one's female.

02:00:43Josh:Um...

02:00:44Josh:And they're all sat in front watching as you come out, and Bray says, and it says here that you all are from the lighthouse.

02:00:55Josh:Is that right?

02:00:56Josh:Could you all strike a pose, perhaps say a catchphrase?

02:01:00Mike:Sure.

02:01:03Mike:Question, Josh.

02:01:05Josh:Huh?

02:01:05Mike:This is a different weave.

02:01:06Mike:Is Dynamax able to cast any magic?

02:01:09Josh:Yes.

02:01:10Mike:Okay.

02:01:10Josh:Divex is absolutely loved to cast magic.

02:01:12Josh:When you go to a different weave, because you've already acclimated, you've got all of your magic, it just operates on different rules than the weave here does.

02:01:14Noah:Thank you.

02:01:22Josh:So their magic doesn't necessarily need spellcasting the same way, but you can still do your magic.

02:01:27Josh:If you wanted to desiccate the crowd, you can.

02:01:29Josh:No problem.

02:01:29Mike:Okay, I just hit the ground.

02:01:32Tanner:I kind of pose in the front, just like shield out, you know, kind of one foot planted back like I'm like rushing forward and like pushing something that's not there.

02:01:44Josh:Okay.

02:01:45Noah:I'll blip back and forth on either side of him really fast a couple of times.

02:01:50Noah:I'll use some teleports.

02:01:54Noah:And then I'll appear and I'll shoot a technomantic blast over the crowd's head.

02:01:59Josh:Awesome.

02:02:00Josh:And dialects.

02:02:01Mike:uh divex will wait for his two compatriots to take the stage and then he will frigid flurry between them so like a gust of of winter essentially will just right across the stage and then he will uh take out his pen staff click it to extend the staff and then cast produce flame over the crowd

02:02:25Josh:Okay, absolutely.

02:02:27Josh:I want a performance check from all three of you.

02:02:30Josh:I'm going to give a plus two circumstance bonus to Dawn and Henrik, and I'm going to give a plus four circumstance bonus to Dymex.

02:02:42Noah:Josh, I'm going to use my once per hour to use crafting instead.

02:02:45Josh:Okay, you're once per hour, once per hour.

02:02:48Josh:Gotcha.

02:02:51Mike:And I'm going to roll with Arcana because I feel like it.

02:02:52Tanner:Oh, wow.

02:02:54Tanner:That's crazy.

02:02:57Josh:Sorry.

02:02:59Josh:Your feet let you... This isn't to identify magic.

02:03:10Mike:I'm joking, I'm joking.

02:03:10Mike:That's honestly not bad for my mod.

02:03:13Josh:What'd we get?

02:03:13Noah:I got a 60.

02:03:16Tanner:I got a 39.

02:03:17Josh:Okay.

02:03:19Josh:Okay!

02:03:20Mike:And Dymax got a 40.

02:03:22Josh:Awesome.

02:03:23Josh:That's ridiculously high rolls for what I expected from you guys.

02:03:26Tanner:I rolled a natural 19.

02:03:27Josh:No offense.

02:03:28Josh:Nice.

02:03:32Josh:Sorry.

02:03:34Josh:Sorry.

02:03:35Josh:Sorry.

02:03:35Josh:Work's taking me.

02:03:38Josh:You all strike your best poses.

02:03:41Josh:You hear a bunch of oohs and ahhs from the crowd as people are wowed by what is probably one of the showier performances that have happened so far as you all burst onto the stage.

02:03:53Josh:And you see that all three of the judges are politely clapping, and Braith, the one in the center, will say, Very good.

02:04:04Josh:Thank you all.

02:04:06Josh:You may exit the stage and await the proceedings.

02:04:09Josh:But that was quite good for whatever media you're part of.

02:04:11Tanner:I hype the crowd as I walk off.

02:04:17Mike:Thank you

02:04:18Josh:Absolutely.

02:04:19Noah:Raise your shield.

02:04:20Noah:Raise your shield.

02:04:23Josh:And you guys are met with pretty big applause.

02:04:28Josh:A lot of people are excited about this, although they're not quite sure why.

02:04:31Josh:They just kind of heard that they should look forward to it in some capacity.

02:04:37Josh:Nobody really knows who you're cosplaying as, but it's clearly very well done cosplay.

02:04:44Josh:You guys look super realistic.

02:04:47Josh:But as you walk off the stage, the next person called to the stage is another Tarv.

02:04:53Tanner:Thank you.

02:04:53Josh:Specifically, the Tarv that you're all familiar with.

02:04:56Jorge:Is there a tarp catchphrase?

02:04:59Noah:Thank you.

02:05:00Josh:Do you want like an older Tarv catchphrase or a newer Tarv catchphrase?

02:05:03Jorge:No.

02:05:03Jorge:I'm going into... I'm leaning into pro... Yeah.

02:05:05Josh:You're going full corpo.

02:05:07Josh:Oh, absolutely.

02:05:09Josh:Tarv's catchphrase is voice of the people.

02:05:13Josh:Um, which you would also recognize as something that's probably an omnivox slogan.

02:05:19Josh:Um, but still it's something he says, like he, he kicks down doors in the names of, in the name of the people and all of that fun stuff.

02:05:29Josh:Um, okay.

02:05:30Josh:So you are welcomed on stage.

02:05:32Josh:And once again, a person in the center, uh, says, please strike a pose to do a catchphrase, whatever you like.

02:05:39Jorge:I'm going to wait for the crowd to get quiet.

02:05:43Josh:Okay.

02:05:43Jorge:If there's any rumoring, I'm going to wait.

02:05:45Josh:I mean the crowd will never get completely silent for you, but sure.

02:05:45Jorge:Then... I'll do a little wait.

02:05:49Jorge:And then I'm going to cast Wall of Ice in front of... Yeah, a little bit.

02:05:56Jorge:I'm going to back up, cast it, and then I'm going to shoot the guns to break the wall.

02:06:01Jorge:And then be like, FOR THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE!

02:06:02Josh:Absolutely.

02:06:05Jorge:And then I'm just going to just stand and strike a pose.

02:06:08Jorge:Like I'm busting it down.

02:06:08Josh:Absolutely.

02:06:09Josh:I want a performance check from you as well.

02:06:13Josh:You have a plus six here.

02:06:14Josh:Plus four for the cool magic effect and plus two because people know who Tarv is.

02:06:15Jorge:Yes.

02:06:20Jorge:Okay, so.

02:06:22Jorge:I have a 30.

02:06:28Jorge:Okay.

02:06:29Jorge:And which check is this, sir?

02:06:30Josh:This is performance.

02:06:32Jorge:Okay.

02:06:39Jorge:Okay.

02:06:48Jorge:Oh, Sean Bear is like... 59.

02:06:50Josh:What's with the slash arm, my guy?

02:06:51Tanner:you

02:06:55Josh:59.

02:06:56Josh:Okay.

02:06:59Josh:You do your performance.

02:07:02Josh:You shoot the ice down.

02:07:03Josh:There's like this burst of icicles as you're very real shooting actual bullets.

02:07:10Josh:Machine guns break through the ice into the crowd.

02:07:14Josh:And like...

02:07:16Josh:Normally, that would be a sign of a terrorist attack at a con if somebody just starts shooting into the crowd.

02:07:23Josh:But no, that's par for the course.

02:07:24Josh:You're not even the first person to have shot into the crowd today.

02:07:28Josh:They've got a big gun culture.

02:07:31Josh:Everybody knows it's kind of a risky take by going outside.

02:07:34Josh:Yes.

02:07:35Tanner:Does it seem like there's some kind of protection, like stopping bullets from just actually going straight into the crowd?

02:07:42Josh:Yes, but only in front of the judges' table.

02:07:45Jorge:Bye.

02:07:46Tanner:It could, yeah.

02:07:48Josh:I mean, listen, it's personal protection.

02:07:49Noah:Thank you.

02:07:50Josh:If you didn't show up with your own personal bulletproof shield, then what are you doing?

02:07:56Josh:That's kind of a personal responsibility to you.

02:07:58Tanner:I didn't know they had those.

02:07:59Tanner:I didn't know.

02:08:01Josh:Most people don't.

02:08:04Josh:Either way, you do your performance.

02:08:06Josh:Huge, huge applause, including from Braith, who, you know, very excited to see a modern interpretation of Tarv up on the stage, who will also say thank you very much for your performance.

02:08:19Josh:This was very exciting.

02:08:20Josh:If you could leave the stage, Mr. Tarv, and we will call up everybody when it is time to receive awards.

02:08:26Jorge:Of course.

02:08:28Josh:And you are let off the stage as well.

02:08:33Josh:Maybe like 20 minutes later, there is a call for Lev from the lighthouse.

02:08:39Josh:Do you go up as well?

02:08:41Josh:Absolutely.

02:08:43Josh:I need a deception check so that nobody recognizes you as the Tarv cosplayer who was just on stage.

02:08:59Tanner:Thank you.

02:09:01Jorge:You know what?

02:09:03Josh:57.

02:09:04Josh:Okay.

02:09:05Josh:You think that you've covered your tracks, so to speak.

02:09:09Josh:You know that if Tarv does win anything and is called back up, you will have to go back into your Tarv cosplay.

02:09:17Josh:But... Okay, sure.

02:09:18Jorge:Then I'll drop it.

02:09:19Jorge:I'll drop it.

02:09:21Jorge:I thought the cosplay was easy to go back and on and on.

02:09:24Josh:You have two machine guns attached to your arms!

02:09:25Noah:I feel like the Tarv cosplay really killed.

02:09:27Jorge:I could change it in action.

02:09:30Jorge:But whatever.

02:09:31Josh:You can change, like, your makeup in an action.

02:09:31Jorge:I'll stay as Tarv.

02:09:33Jorge:I'll stay as Tarv.

02:09:35Josh:You cannot affix two fully functioning machine guns to fake metal arms in an action.

02:09:44Jorge:Alright.

02:09:45Jorge:Then I'll... Yeah, should I go as Blitz?

02:09:47Jorge:Or what do you think?

02:09:52Jorge:Okay.

02:09:52Jorge:But do you think the two children might vote for you guys?

02:09:56Jorge:That would be really awkward if I don't get to go up with you guys.

02:10:01Noah:All right.

02:10:04Tanner:I mean, you weren't up with us at the time, but if we win, we'll get the award and we still have it.

02:10:08Jorge:All right.

02:10:12Jorge:All right.

02:10:13Jorge:Sounds good.

02:10:16Josh:Okay.

02:10:19Josh:So, Lev is a no-show, unfortunately.

02:10:21Josh:Nobody's really disappointed, because nobody knows who Lev is.

02:10:25Josh:But, you know, that's fine.

02:10:29Josh:It takes, like, another hour to get through all of the different, you know... Yeah, they're all huge Desmond fans.

02:10:30Tanner:They're all Desmond fans.

02:10:34Josh:There's one Marzo fan and no Lev fans.

02:10:39Josh:Sorry.

02:10:43Josh:Excuse me.

02:10:46Josh:About an hour passes as they get through the rest of the people in the competition.

02:10:50Josh:There's some deliberating among the judges.

02:10:53Josh:And then eventually, Braith stands up, motions for everybody to quiet down.

02:10:59Josh:The crowd will quiet down for Braith.

02:11:02Josh:And they will say, okay, everyone, we have our rankings decided.

02:11:09Josh:We are going to announce in order of third, second, and then first, the winners of today's cosplay competition.

02:11:17Josh:But I do want to say everybody was wonderful.

02:11:19Josh:We enjoyed all of the costumes we saw.

02:11:22Josh:So without further ado, in third place, I would like somebody to roll a D100 for me, please.

02:11:30Tanner:oh i'm gonna do it oh okay go ahead okay i don't know what i was supposed to roll but i got a 16.

02:11:30Noah:you

02:11:32Mike:I'll do it.

02:11:33Mike:You do it.

02:11:33Jorge:Yes.

02:11:34Mike:You do it.

02:11:35Mike:No, I'll do it.

02:11:38Mike:No, you do it.

02:11:40Mike:Wait.

02:11:41Mike:You should have let me do it.

02:11:47Josh:Okay, in third place, we are awarding our third place prize to the Cybro Troop.

02:11:57Josh:And you watch as like eight people fully chromed out, like they've replaced from the neck down with metal skeletons.

02:12:07Josh:And it looks to be like they all have knives for hands.

02:12:11Josh:It's actually kind of a familiar sight for two of you.

02:12:15Josh:I mean, if they were foxes, they would look more familiar, but knives for hands is crazy to see in a different setting.

02:12:23Josh:Okay, this is excellent.

02:12:26Josh:They do all get a 250 cred gift card to any Omnivox store, so that's exciting.

02:12:34Josh:Everybody around the world does.

02:12:36Josh:Next up, in second place, I would like another D100.

02:12:42Tanner:I guess this one should be Mike.

02:12:42Mike:I'll roll this one.

02:12:43Tanner:Yeah.

02:12:48Mike:59.

02:12:48Mike:That's what a real person rolls.

02:12:48Noah:I'm talking masculinity in this group.

02:12:49Josh:In second place, winning a free implant of their choice, sponsored by Celestial... Oh, crap, what do you call it?

02:12:51Mike:A real man.

02:12:51Mike:I don't know.

02:13:06Josh:Celestial Biodynamics?

02:13:07Josh:What's your name?

02:13:08Tanner:Bioforge.

02:13:09Josh:Bless your bio, Forbes.

02:13:10Josh:Thank you very much.

02:13:14Josh:We have the Weft from The Lighthouse with an aspect of Immix.

02:13:20Josh:I have to say, I was not personally aware of this television show, but both of the co-judges are huge fans and honestly playing to your audience.

02:13:29Josh:Good job to all of you.

02:13:31Josh:See the man off to the side once this is complete to redeem your implant.

02:13:34Jorge:Okay.

02:13:37Josh:One per team.

02:13:39Josh:And of course, in first place, with a unanimous decision, this is the highest ranking we have had, I would like to welcome up number 87, Tarv of the Rising Moon.

02:13:55Josh:And that is your number, Lev.

02:13:58Jorge:I'm going to do a Beyonce and, like, pretend and be, like, shocked.

02:14:02Jorge:I'm going to be like... And then I'll run up there.

02:14:09Tanner:That's such a silly screen grab, by the way.

02:14:11Tanner:I've never seen a faker surprise face in my life.

02:14:15Jorge:Yeah.

02:14:15Josh:You get up to the stage, faux surprised.

02:14:24Josh:Brad says, that was the best cosplay I have seen.

02:14:27Josh:You looked like you came right out of one of our wonderful blockbusters.

02:14:35Josh:Tar 5 in theaters now, everyone.

02:14:38Josh:And of course...

02:14:39Jorge:I'll say any dates I learned while studying.

02:14:39Tanner:Thank you.

02:14:42Jorge:I'll be like, it's in my search.

02:14:45Josh:Absolutely.

02:14:45Josh:You're a true superfan now.

02:14:46Noah:I appreciate your time.

02:14:47Jorge:Yeah.

02:14:47Josh:Absolutely.

02:14:48Josh:And you also can see the man at the desk for your all-inclusive paid trip to the Golden Spire.

02:14:54Josh:I hope you have a wonderful time.

02:14:57Josh:And then Braith will turn back to everybody and say, that is it for the cosplay competition.

02:14:57Jorge:Thank you.

02:14:57Jorge:Thank you.

02:15:02Josh:Everybody go drink, be merry.

02:15:04Josh:And they do a little bow and they walk off.

02:15:09Josh:The female twin gives you guys a little wave, a thumbs up, and then walks into the crowd.

02:15:16Tanner:Yeah.

02:15:20Noah:Why does she know who we are and no one else does?

02:15:25Noah:I'm going to chase after her.

02:15:26Noah:I'm chasing after her.

02:15:27Jorge:Yeah, let's go chat with her.

02:15:29Josh:Roll a perception check to take her out of the crowd.

02:15:30Jorge:I'm going to go with everyone.

02:15:34Tanner:Oh, should I do it?

02:15:34Noah:I'll drag Henrik after me.

02:15:35Tanner:Am I allowed to do it?

02:15:37Josh:Yeah, I'll let you do it.

02:15:39Noah:Henrik, find her.

02:15:41Jorge:I'm going to go also, but I'll use a hero point.

02:15:41Tanner:Sickers!

02:15:44Tanner:Oh, man.

02:15:45Jorge:I have a hero point to use.

02:15:47Tanner:I actually also have a hero point.

02:15:51Jorge:Fuck, I'll flip a coin.

02:15:54Jorge:Yeah!

02:15:55Jorge:So it's 12 plus 31.

02:15:56Noah:All right.

02:15:57Jorge:So 43.

02:15:59Josh:Okay, so a 43 crit... Sorry, a 43 doesn't work.

02:16:01Jorge:And I only have one more hero point.

02:16:05Tanner:Nailed it!

02:16:11Jorge:Oh!

02:16:12Josh:A 55 crit takes it from a failure up to a success.

02:16:19Josh:So you watch as the two of them, the twins, kind of disappear into the crowd.

02:16:25Josh:And, like, supernaturally,

02:16:29Josh:fade from view makes into the crowd, such that they're not possible.

02:16:33Josh:Of course, they're not the only ones who are supernatural.

02:16:37Josh:Henrik has eyes better than an eagle.

02:16:40Josh:It's a disservice to Henrik to call them eagle eyes.

02:16:44Josh:Where he just kind of spots them as they move throughout the crowd, and you can keep up with them.

02:16:53Josh:If you want to, you can catch them, if you like.

02:16:55Tanner:Oh, folks, folks, hold on, hold on.

02:16:58Josh:They will turn around and the man will say, yes, can we help?

02:17:05Josh:This was a good cosplay, but we do have places we must be going.

02:17:10Tanner:Yeah, I just wanted to thank you guys for recognizing us.

02:17:14Tanner:I mean, we love the Weft.

02:17:16Tanner:I feel like they don't get enough appreciation, so it was awesome.

02:17:22Josh:Of course, we see media we like, we vote for it.

02:17:26Tanner:Yeah, thanks.

02:17:27Tanner:What's your guys' names?

02:17:28Tanner:I want to remember you guys.

02:17:30Tanner:It was awesome.

02:17:32Josh:I'm Anaïs, and this is Anouk.

02:17:36Noah:It's so great to meet you.

02:17:36Jorge:I'm gonna there you go if you're gonna say something

02:17:42Tanner:Yeah, I tried to drag Dawnmonger with me, if that's...

02:17:46Josh:Sure, absolutely.

02:17:49Noah:Do you guys work?

02:17:50Noah:I guess you must work at Omnivox since you were judges.

02:17:55Josh:Anouk will say, yes, we are consultants, so to speak.

02:18:03Josh:But really, it was very nice seeing all of you, but we must be off.

02:18:07Jorge:Any... Any chance we could get... I could have dinner with you over in the Golden Sphere?

02:18:14Jorge:Golden... Uh... Okay.

02:18:16Josh:I appreciate the offer, but no.

02:18:22Jorge:I'm just gonna turn to them and be like, so how do you... What?

02:18:23Noah:There's something funky about these guys

02:18:23Tanner:We don't want to push it.

02:18:29Jorge:Okay.

02:18:30Josh:Yeah, no role necessary there.

02:18:31Jorge:Alright.

02:18:33Josh:There's no way to convince them to come have dinner with you, unfortunately.

02:18:37Josh:To see how many hit points they have?

02:18:38Jorge:Can I do a seek action?

02:18:43Jorge:Yeah.

02:18:43Josh:Yeah, absolutely.

02:18:48Jorge:They're not from this sphere.

02:18:49Jorge:Don, shake their hand.

02:18:50Jorge:41.

02:18:51Noah:It's everyone.

02:18:52Noah:It only works on people.

02:18:53Josh:Everybody's not from the sphere that he could... He doesn't have the ability to tell if they're from the sphere that he's on.

02:18:55Noah:It only works on people.

02:18:59Jorge:What if it doesn't feel like they're from a different sphere and it just feels like they're from Mars?

02:18:59Josh:It's if they're from all things.

02:19:06Noah:Actually, yeah, that would be even crazier.

02:19:06Josh:Um... Which one were you looking for?

02:19:08Noah:I will do that.

02:19:12Josh:Anakura and I. I mean, both of them.

02:19:14Jorge:The one that was talking to us.

02:19:18Jorge:I would go the girl.

02:19:18Josh:The guy or the girl?

02:19:20Jorge:Girl.

02:19:21Josh:The girl has 450 hit points.

02:19:22Noah:Thank you.

02:19:24Jorge:Can I try the guy?

02:19:25Jorge:39.

02:19:26Josh:Yeah, absolutely.

02:19:28Mike:Can Divex activate his diagnostic heart and cast either Comprehend Languages or Trueseeing?

02:19:34Tanner:Thank you.

02:19:37Josh:Sure.

02:19:39Josh:Comprehend languages would be useful.

02:19:41Josh:They're speaking in common to you right now.

02:19:44Josh:What does true scene get you?

02:19:46Josh:Also, what did you get for your perception check?

02:19:48Jorge:That one was a 39.

02:19:51Josh:39 is fine.

02:19:52Josh:Anaïs has 480 hit points.

02:19:56Jorge:Okay.

02:19:58Jorge:Also, what is see the unseen, I believe, is this the thing?

02:20:03Jorge:Because I also have that in addition to the true scene with DiveX.

02:20:08Josh:See the unseen.

02:20:11Josh:They are not undetected to you, so it doesn't do anything.

02:20:13Jorge:Okay.

02:20:14Josh:If somebody is undetected to you, but they're adjacent to you, they're only hidden.

02:20:18Josh:So that'd be really good specifically for foiling dawn But unfortunately, it doesn't help here because they are both very visible So if they are an illusion morphed or polymorph Yes, absolutely roll a counteract check for me.

02:20:30Mike:uh this is okay i can't ever paste things hello kind of kind of bobana

02:20:45Josh:This is arcana

02:20:52Jorge:Can I also do that?

02:20:54Josh:No.

02:20:55Josh:Unless you also have Truesight.

02:20:57Jorge:I do have to reset.

02:20:58Josh:Okay, then an Arcana check.

02:21:03Mike:uh that is my mod uh i'm gonna mythic point that mythic point uh i'm already i'm legendary so it's just another two better 54.

02:21:06Noah:Hello.

02:21:06Tanner:Thank you.

02:21:14Josh:If you want.

02:21:26Josh:Put it again.

02:21:26Josh:54 is enough.

02:21:30Josh:42 is not enough.

02:21:30Jorge:That's not going to be worth it.

02:21:33Josh:A 54 is enough specifically on Anouk, the girl.

02:21:39Josh:Her chrome is fake.

02:21:42Mike:Interesting.

02:21:43Josh:Like, the metallic traces and stuff along her arms and on her face are not real.

02:21:49Josh:They are illusions put there.

02:21:53Noah:So how long have you guys consulted for Omnivox?

02:21:56Josh:I'm sorry, we really do not have the time to chat.

02:21:58Josh:We must be going.

02:22:00Noah:As they go, I'm just going to lean in.

02:22:01Josh:Absolutely.

02:22:02Noah:It's just so great to meet someone else who knows about us.

02:22:06Noah:And I'll wink.

02:22:08Noah:And then I'll go away.

02:22:11Josh:Roll a diplomacy check here.

02:22:19Noah:Let me see.

02:22:24Noah:I'm going to use a hero point.

02:22:25Josh:Okay.

02:22:26Josh:Because with a 36 fumble, you think you wink, but you actually blink.

02:22:32Noah:I will use a hero point.

02:22:33Josh:54 isn't enough.

02:22:35Noah:I think I just got a plus two.

02:22:41Jorge:Yes.

02:22:41Noah:Or 54.

02:22:45Josh:You, like, give off the... Yeah.

02:22:45Noah:If I have... If it was a 57, would it be enough?

02:22:49Josh:Yes.

02:22:50Noah:I will use PraxMakesPerfect.

02:22:52Josh:Okay, absolutely.

02:22:56Josh:With a 57, that's crazy.

02:23:00Josh:You'll lean over, do the whole wink-wink, and I will say, listen, we've done what we can to help.

02:23:06Josh:Don't push your luck.

02:23:09Noah:Josh, did they remind us of anyone in the narrative?

02:23:09Josh:And they will both turn to go.

02:23:14Jorge:Thank you.

02:23:25Josh:Remind you how?

02:23:26Tanner:you

02:23:29Josh:They don't look like anybody you met in the narrative, if that was the question.

02:23:29Noah:Alright, that was kind of it.

02:23:32Josh:No.

02:23:36Jorge:I'm going to talk to the broker if I can through Schism.

02:23:39Josh:You can.

02:23:41Jorge:Hey, man.

02:23:42Jorge:So we won first and second.

02:23:44Jorge:uh did you oh i'm so sorry you don't understand you want a costume gun the golden spire because we think we know the position the phoebe had while he was here before he became oh

02:23:46Josh:You won what?

02:23:48Noah:Oh, we...

02:24:05Josh:And you've had a much more productive eight hours than I have.

02:24:10Josh:I have a meeting with my fixer, but I've needed to jump through some hoops to make some connections since it's been a little bit since I was last here.

02:24:23Josh:So you think that if you went to the Golden Spire, that would be useful?

02:24:29Jorge:Do you mind popping over here so we can chat?

02:24:29Mike:Mm hmm.

02:24:32Jorge:I knew he could do that.

02:24:33Josh:Sure.

02:24:34Josh:There's a flash of blue light, and he's standing in front of you.

02:24:37Noah:I will relay everything that has happened to him including inventing machine guns and I'll show him the comic book

02:24:38Jorge:So fucking cool.

02:24:47Josh:Absolutely.

02:24:52Josh:He will flip through it and thumb at the smudge and be like, OK, this is actually a really good lead.

02:25:03Josh:What do you think we'll need once we get there?

02:25:08Josh:Specifically, teleporting up to Station 7, to the Golden Spire, sorry, is going to be difficult to do repeatedly.

02:25:20Josh:So I'd like to try and bring up what we need.

02:25:22Josh:I'm coming with.

02:25:23Josh:I'd like to try and bring up what we need beforehand.

02:25:23Noah:Okay.

02:25:24Jorge:Oh yeah.

02:25:27Jorge:Why is it difficult to do it repeatedly?

02:25:30Josh:Well, so...

02:25:32Josh:Talking about alternate streams of research, this is a good find because the last time I was here, I had noticed that the way that I followed whoever this was, the feet, to Althane was because they left a trail of...

02:25:50Josh:broken space, we'll call it, from here to all things.

02:25:55Josh:And that means that there are parts of the orbit around Syrin that are magically difficult to move around in, we'll say, as part of whatever caused...

02:26:11Josh:them to leave.

02:26:12Josh:I would have only been able to narrow it down to a handful of space stations.

02:26:17Josh:I think this fairly positively narrows it down to one specific one.

02:26:22Josh:I think this is good work.

02:26:25Jorge:Do you know these two people and describe the two people that helped us out?

02:26:32Josh:No.

02:26:33Josh:They don't ring any bells.

02:26:35Noah:Oh.

02:26:36Josh:I can try and look into them if that would be useful.

02:26:38Jorge:Why do you think they would help us?

02:26:42Tanner:And they knew us.

02:26:44Josh:Maybe that's why they wanted to help you.

02:26:46Josh:Yeah, if you want to blend in, we're going to a casino.

02:26:47Mike:Mm-hmm.

02:26:51Tanner:We also, we won one implant of our choice.

02:26:59Tanner:Having spent some time here already, do you think there's one that would like, or some that would particularly help us out in what we're trying to do here?

02:27:12Tanner:Yeah.

02:27:13Josh:You need to be able to spend money.

02:27:18Josh:So I would get a cerebral processor.

02:27:20Jorge:Is it bad for one of us to get it?

02:27:20Tanner:Mm-hmm.

02:27:22Jorge:Or is it like... Oh.

02:27:24Josh:I have one.

02:27:24Noah:Yeah.

02:27:28Josh:Or I have one that's been modified to work, given that I don't actually have a physical brain.

02:27:34Josh:But you can adapt to them with a bit of know-how.

02:27:37Jorge:You got some money for us?

02:27:39Jorge:Do you have any idea how we can make some money for the casino?

02:27:41Josh:Yeah, that was why it took so long.

02:27:43Josh:I had to...

02:27:44Josh:get some seed money from stashes that I had left from the last time I was here.

02:27:48Tanner:Hmm.

02:27:50Jorge:Also, people really like booze here, apparently.

02:27:52Jorge:We could sell that.

02:27:54Josh:Um, well, there was, close to 60 years ago, there was a famine here, killed off most of their grains, so alcohol's kind of not easy to come by, and so they have this gross synthol substitute.

02:28:02Noah:I'll do it.

02:28:03Jorge:Yeah.

02:28:09Josh:Real alcohol's gonna be worth something if you're looking to sell it.

02:28:15Jorge:Alright.

02:28:15Tanner:So one of us needs to get a cerebral processor so that we can actually accept.

02:28:21Jorge:Love it.

02:28:21Mike:Well, weren't we going to try to hook up to Schism and see if we could get a group processor?

02:28:26Noah:Oh, yeah.

02:28:27Noah:You think that'd be possible if we just hooked up with Schism?

02:28:29Noah:We all...

02:28:32Josh:I suppose you'd have to go in with the cover story that you don't want implants, so you're carrying around this robot as your gopher, so to speak, but you could.

02:28:35Noah:Yeah.

02:28:46Mike:We're religious.

02:28:47Noah:Exactly.

02:28:48Josh:It'd be strange, but it wouldn't be anything that gets you kicked out of somewhere.

02:28:52Jorge:How much is an implant?

02:28:53Jorge:Can we just all get one?

02:28:57Josh:I could purchase implants for all of you if you thought that was a good use of our seed money.

02:29:02Josh:I have 80 grand of creds packed away.

02:29:08Noah:that a lot.

02:29:11Josh:It's not non-negligible.

02:29:13Jorge:We can get...

02:29:14Josh:Well, if we were to get you... Sorry.

02:29:14Tanner:As a reminder, a very base old model cerebral processor, the cheapest we could get is 1.5K.

02:29:27Josh:So if you wanted to put our fund towards that, if you think it would be useful, we can.

02:29:34Tanner:But we could also probably get a pretty good one with our prize.

02:29:39Jorge:Yeah.

02:29:40Mike:They just looked at it as schism, and then...

02:29:41Noah:well I mean one of us can or we could just hook up a schism and then all of us use schisms and then one of us just go in and be like look I already have no metal I'm a religious dude that would not work for me but you know Henrik or Dybex or Glev any of you guys

02:29:42Jorge:But then we have to say why only one of us has a processor.

02:29:47Tanner:I'm saying we could at least get one good one and then three cheap ones or four cheap ones, whatever.

02:29:52Jorge:Yeah.

02:30:09Jorge:Or you could get it and then we just say, we're religious, but he's our friend, so... Yeah, let's do that.

02:30:13Noah:I could also get it.

02:30:18Jorge:Let's just you get it, because... Us being religious gives some excuses of why we don't know anything about this place.

02:30:22Tanner:I'm fine with that

02:30:30Mike:Sure.

02:30:31Mike:How much is a decent one?

02:30:34Josh:Assuming you're not getting into the luxury models, a high-end one is $20,000, and you can find them in between that range.

02:30:44Josh:I will say, for you guys, I assume you're not planning on...

02:30:50Josh:like browsing the RET and all of that stuff, like general consumer models, you're probably not going to get a lot of improvements.

02:31:00Josh:If you want to be able to use any kind of, if you manage to get your hands on cyberware, like for hacking, you're going to want one that runs you around 10K.

02:31:09Josh:After that is diminishing returns.

02:31:12Tanner:And how nice of one can we get with the prize?

02:31:12Jorge:Yeah, so let's add five grand to it, get one that can hack, and then that's it.

02:31:15Josh:The prize will credit you up to five grand worth for an implant.

02:31:19Josh:You can add more to it if you want, but if you don't want to pay anything, you get five grand.

02:31:27Tanner:Yeah.

02:31:28Tanner:We get the 10k one for Dawn, for sure.

02:31:32Mike:Well then, okay, so the rest of the money, where are we going to get the most bang?

02:31:36Mike:I feel like most of the bang is probably blending in, which is each of us having one of the 10K models.

02:31:45Jorge:So I have seven samples of 693 Syrup, three samples of 693 Azul, and 694 Viola Wine.

02:31:57Jorge:And then I also have... I was mostly just looking for you.

02:31:57Josh:So the years and the mints are not going to matter here, because... Yeah, just in general, a bottle of alcohol, tech would probably guess, runs you around a grand per to sell off the wine, which is exchange rate pretty good for just random bottles of wine that you brought in.

02:32:15Noah:Thank you.

02:32:23Jorge:Okay.

02:32:23Josh:I will say, tech will offer, if you guys are talking about what to spend money on, well, first of all, you're going to want something to spend at the casino, if you're looking to blend in at the casino.

02:32:35Tanner:Agreed.

02:32:36Josh:Beyond that, if you want to get your hands on cyberware, on something to hack with, that'll cost money.

02:32:44Josh:And we'll need a ripper to install this.

02:32:48Josh:I know a good one, but they're not free.

02:32:55Jorge:Okay.

02:32:55Tanner:Okay, so we spend 5k to upgrade Dawnmonger's.

02:33:02Tanner:Tech, do you know how much it'll cost for your Ripper to install that into him?

02:33:06Noah:you

02:33:07Josh:Regardless of how many implants you install, it'll be one grand per person.

02:33:14Tanner:Okay.

02:33:17Jorge:Josh, in my notes, I have a one Fanta parentheses wine, a regular wine, a whiskey,

02:33:25Jorge:And then one blonde.

02:33:28Jorge:I think those are from the lighthouse.

02:33:29Jorge:Were those magical?

02:33:30Jorge:Or just regular drinks?

02:33:32Josh:The drinks that you got from the lighthouse are magical.

02:33:37Jorge:Fuck, I forgot what these did.

02:33:39Josh:Yeah, sucks for you.

02:33:40Josh:I don't have it written down.

02:33:44Mike:The drinks from the lighthouse?

02:33:47Jorge:Yeah.

02:33:47Josh:Yeah.

02:33:48Josh:You went into a lighthouse bar when you were exploring RC3, and there were four drinks.

02:33:53Josh:You were able to take three.

02:33:54Josh:Each had a positive magical effect if you passed a fort save.

02:33:59Josh:But if you didn't write them down, I think they're just gone.

02:34:03Jorge:Alright, so I have four more to sell.

02:34:09Jorge:So I have four, eleven, fourteen, and then thirteen plus three.

02:34:18Tanner:Yeah.

02:34:21Jorge:Seventeen.

02:34:21Jorge:I have seventeen bottles of wine to sell.

02:34:26Jorge:Oh, and I have a bottle of I have a lot of booze on me.

02:34:30Jorge:Eighteen.

02:34:31Josh:Where are you keeping all this alcohol?

02:34:32Jorge:Okay.

02:34:32Noah:Thank you.

02:34:34Jorge:I have a personal bag of holding.

02:34:36Josh:Right, of course.

02:34:37Jorge:I'm not going to sell Lebs Vodka because I feel like that's just like some very thing that.

02:34:43Jorge:Feel right to have numbers.

02:34:45Josh:So you have, if you wanted to sell all of it, 17k worth of alcohol that you were available to sell to add to the pile.

02:34:54Josh:So 97 total.

02:34:59Jorge:Yeah.

02:34:59Jorge:All right.

02:35:00Josh:Excuse me.

02:35:02Jorge:Why do we... So, what do we do once we get to the casino?

02:35:07Noah:I mean, I think once we get to the casino, we leave the casino, break into the Omnivox headquarters and look for records.

02:35:14Josh:If you're not planning on actually spending stuff at the casino, you're not paying for your room or for food or for transport.

02:35:19Jorge:We don't really need spending money, because, like, I haven't... Yeah.

02:35:32Noah:We're just trying to get this info and then blip out of here, right?

02:35:36Jorge:Maybe a hacking set.

02:35:37Jorge:Do you think you could hack if you get one of those?

02:35:41Josh:They're pretty point and click.

02:35:45Noah:Okay.

02:35:45Jorge:Okay.

02:35:46Jorge:Okay.

02:35:46Mike:So the $110K using our $5K credit and then we each get $1.5K ones.

02:35:53Mike:I think it's going to be important to be able to communicate with people through the RET and not set off any red flags.

02:35:58Jorge:Okay.

02:36:00Mike:I think the $4,500 for us to get subpar ones is more than good.

02:36:04Josh:Well, if we're talking about implants and the red, you could get integrated spanners as well, which do kind of what your orb does, but per person.

02:36:18Josh:I don't know if that would be useful to you.

02:36:20Mike:Integrated spanners.

02:36:20Jorge:What other things can we do as well?

02:36:23Josh:Sorry?

02:36:24Jorge:What other things could we get as well?

02:36:26Jorge:Any other good implants?

02:36:27Josh:I mean, general armoring, if you wanted to replace some of your skin if you're looking to get synthetic muscles to increase that kind of stuff, that would work.

02:36:40Josh:You guys don't really have the conditioning for most other cerebral implants in general, but general body things.

02:36:47Josh:Do you want a rebreather?

02:36:48Josh:How do you guys feel about breathing?

02:36:53Josh:Or eating?

02:36:54Noah:I mean, I guess we're looking at things like, you know, we're kind of coming in on, I know we're coming in on a short-term goal here, right?

02:36:55Jorge:What about sleeping?

02:36:58Josh:Sorry.

02:37:01Jorge:Sorry.

02:37:04Noah:I mean, I guess there's long-term stuff later on, but in the immediate future, we need to, we're going to go up to the space station, go through who knows what traps, get this information, blip out, fight the Feep.

02:37:18Noah:We know where the Feep is, like what that environment's going to look like, right?

02:37:26Jorge:When you said strength thing, is there anything that can actually help us?

02:37:27Noah:you

02:37:31Jorge:Or are they basically just equivalent to Pathfinder?

02:37:34Josh:I mean, most of this stuff is equivalent to Pathfinder stuff.

02:37:38Josh:The things that would most directly help you aren't magical effects.

02:37:42Josh:You can spend some amount of money to directly increase your HP.

02:37:48Josh:But beyond that, you get things like removing effectively like a Ring of Sustenance if you're trying to free up an investment slot if that was something that you had.

02:37:58Josh:I don't even know if they take up an investment slot.

02:38:04Josh:But, like, a lot of it is specifically for interfacing with computer systems that don't exist on all things.

02:38:05Jorge:Much ACP?

02:38:06Jorge:Yeah.

02:38:10Jorge:How much HP and how much money?

02:38:10Josh:So... There is enough money here for... It's a direct conversion of 5000 creds to 1 HP.

02:38:21Tanner:Hmm.

02:38:24Noah:I don't know if that's worth it.

02:38:25Noah:I think it'd be more worth it to get better gear.

02:38:27Jorge:Can you say rebreather?

02:38:31Josh:The rebreather will be 10k, and it just makes it so that you no longer need to breathe.

02:38:36Josh:You cannot suffocate.

02:38:38Jorge:Shit, there's inhaled poisons.

02:38:40Jorge:I don't have to worry about those.

02:38:41Josh:It wouldn't affect you.

02:38:42Josh:Correct.

02:38:43Jorge:Hell yeah, I'm getting that.

02:38:45Noah:Yeah, I'll get that too.

02:38:47Josh:Okay.

02:38:48Mike:So we have...

02:38:50Josh:Alright.

02:38:50Noah:Helping you breathe.

02:38:51Tanner:They're 10k.

02:38:53Tanner:I guess... I guess we don't need the money for anything else.

02:38:54Noah:yeah Lev came prepared to this alien metropolis universal language

02:38:56Jorge:Well, I brought $19,000 worth.

02:38:56Tanner:Well... That's fair.

02:38:59Jorge:I can pay for myself.

02:39:01Tanner:That's fair.

02:39:05Josh:Apparently the only thing you need is alcohol.

02:39:10Jorge:yes that's 44 000 for that 55 55 000 to give no no 54 000 to also get done a computer minus five fifty thousand for so it's fifty thousand even for all of us

02:39:12Tanner:Alright.

02:39:13Tanner:So... Now we need to do math.

02:39:20Mike:Google, please let me add a column to this sheet.

02:39:20Tanner:Um...

02:39:38Jorge:don also get a hacker thing and then the hacker software is 10k oh yeah yeah

02:39:44Josh:Sorry, what do you mean by the hacker software is 10K?

02:39:46Josh:The actual software itself?

02:39:49Josh:There are a few different prices for different softs.

02:39:54Josh:But those aren't implants, so you can get those separately.

02:39:57Josh:It's also going to be another... I don't know if you counted the 4K required to actually install all of these implants.

02:40:04Josh:You did?

02:40:05Josh:Okay.

02:40:05Jorge:So each one's 10K, and there's four of us, and then 1K to install each, so it's 44K.

02:40:11Jorge:Big Fish also gets 5K off, so we only need five more K to get the other upgrade, so that's 49.

02:40:21Jorge:And then you have the rest for software.

02:40:21Josh:Absolutely.

02:40:27Mike:Okay, so I have us at 36,500.

02:40:29Mike:This is 40,000 for the rebreathers.

02:40:34Mike:Oh, wait.

02:40:36Mike:Minus 5,000.

02:40:36Jorge:I think it's 59,000 or 49,000, 49,000.

02:40:39Mike:I have it down to 26,500 left.

02:40:43Mike:So 40,000 for the rebreathers, 5,000 for the 10K unit with the 5K credits, 4,500 for the remaining three implants, like neural implants, and then 4,000 for the install costs.

02:41:02Jorge:I forgot about the regular ones.

02:41:04Jorge:Okay.

02:41:05Jorge:And then how much for acting supper?

02:41:07Josh:Absolutely.

02:41:08Noah:Thank you.

02:41:09Josh:So the options of hacking software you have available that tech can get for you in any reasonable amount of time.

02:41:12Tanner:uh

02:41:21Josh:any reasonable amount of time.

02:41:22Josh:There are four options.

02:41:24Josh:There is Reboot Optics, which will blind an enemy on a cooldown of an hour.

02:41:32Josh:But you can effectively just point at somebody and turn off their eyes.

02:41:37Josh:There is Bait, which also, once an hour, it can select two people within 60 feet of you, and they will walk over to your current location.

02:41:48Josh:There is Detonate Grenade.

02:41:50Josh:If they have some kind of explosive on them once an hour within 60 feet, you can cause it to explode then and there.

02:41:58Josh:And then you have remote takeover, which lets you connect to a camera or camera system within line of sight and then see from the perspective of the camera.

02:42:13Josh:That's no cooldown.

02:42:13Jorge:one of the prices.

02:42:15Josh:That just happens.

02:42:16Josh:So...

02:42:20Josh:The Reboot Optics is 10, Bait is 10, Detonate Grenade is 20, and Remote Takeover, I think, is also 10.

02:42:30Josh:One second.

02:42:31Josh:Yes, is also 10.

02:42:33Noah:Reboot optics sounds really good.

02:42:37Tanner:And these are items?

02:42:38Noah:I know it's once an hour, but that seems really good.

02:42:41Noah:The detonate could be useful for running someone to the bomb.

02:42:47Noah:And then...

02:42:49Josh:They are cyberware that gets slotted into your cerebral processor.

02:42:55Josh:So they are technically an item, but you can only use them if you have that 10K hack-enabled cerebral processor.

02:42:55Tanner:Oh.

02:43:02Tanner:Got it.

02:43:04Tanner:Got it, got it, got it.

02:43:06Josh:So more than one of you could get the higher-end one.

02:43:07Noah:Yeah.

02:43:10Josh:There's a little bit of upfront cost in order to be able to use these.

02:43:13Jorge:I'm, lives, after finding out things you can hack, not going to install the cerebral cortex thing.

02:43:19Jorge:I could get mine put on a schism, but I will not be putting it on.

02:43:26Mike:What was the other thing the broker suggested that we could get a... like something else to interface with the RET?

02:43:35Josh:You can get an integrated spanner, which is... It's effectively the same thing as your Oniriscope, just built in.

02:43:45Josh:You can do it at will, where you can swap between your current location and the dream impact.

02:43:49Jorge:Oh, never mind.

02:43:51Jorge:I'll need a cerebral cortex for that, right?

02:43:54Josh:Yeah.

02:43:54Jorge:All right, I'll get it.

02:43:55Jorge:That sounds like we should have that.

02:43:57Mike:Wait, how much was the integrated spanner?

02:43:57Noah:You can do it with just the own iris scope.

02:44:00Mike:Five?

02:44:02Josh:We'll call it five.

02:44:04Mike:Okay.

02:44:06Tanner:Can our base level processors?

02:44:08Josh:Yes.

02:44:09Josh:It's not as advanced as the hacks are, so your base level ones can do it.

02:44:14Tanner:All right, add four of those to the price.

02:44:17Jorge:That's 20.

02:44:17Mike:Four of them?

02:44:19Jorge:If we get four.

02:44:19Mike:We each need one?

02:44:21Tanner:I guess we don't each need one.

02:44:23Jorge:I guess you don't need one.

02:44:24Jorge:You have your own gyroscope.

02:44:29Mike:But you can do it just... So... Is that possible?

02:44:32Josh:It's one person.

02:44:34Josh:The person who has it implanted can swap as an action between your current location and the dream.

02:44:40Tanner:you

02:44:41Josh:And back.

02:44:45Mike:So it works the same as the Oniroscope?

02:44:48Mike:Like, we can just use the Oniroscope to do the same thing?

02:44:50Josh:Effectively, yeah.

02:44:51Josh:It does the same thing.

02:44:52Josh:It's just integrated for one specific person, so they don't need to be touching the uniriscope to do it.

02:44:57Noah:Would that one be functional on Altane as well?

02:44:58Mike:Okay.

02:45:01Josh:Anywhere there's a dream.

02:45:03Noah:That's big.

02:45:07Josh:Because the red here is literally just a large, like a planet-sized dream.

02:45:12Josh:So it works the same way.

02:45:20Mike:Uh...

02:45:23Jorge:You guys don't have any liquor on you guys to sell?

02:45:28Tanner:I don't.

02:45:30Tanner:I don't.

02:45:30Noah:have some rations, which might sell.

02:45:37Noah:I have a silent bell.

02:45:41Noah:I got rocket boots.

02:45:46Josh:The con is still going on if you want to try selling it.

02:45:48Jorge:You want to sell this comic book?

02:45:51Noah:Yeah, I feel like now that we got all we needed out of it.

02:46:00Josh:It's a diplomacy check to try and find somebody to buy it from you.

02:46:03Jorge:I will disguise myself as someone else.

02:46:03Josh:Keep in mind, it is contraband.

02:46:08Mike:You've got to find a true fan.

02:46:08Tanner:yeah so we're going to sell it back to him

02:46:14Noah:We're going to self-actualize.

02:46:14Jorge:Not to that guy.

02:46:15Noah:Although I think you would look at it and... Well, I don't know what mini-condition is.

02:46:16Jorge:We could sell it back to that guy.

02:46:22Noah:Never mind.

02:46:26Jorge:Should I try selling to someone else?

02:46:27Noah:I'm sure you could find someone.

02:46:27Jorge:What do you guys think?

02:46:31Jorge:All right, I'm going to disguise myself again as someone else.

02:46:33Noah:Oh.

02:46:35Jorge:And then I'm going to use a discrete inquiry.

02:46:39Tanner:Wait, wait, wait.

02:46:40Tanner:You don't have a way of accepting credits right now.

02:46:43Josh:Correct.

02:46:45Noah:That is an issue.

02:46:47Jorge:Broker, do you want to come with me?

02:46:51Josh:You want me to just stand behind you while you try and sell this illegal comic book?

02:46:57Jorge:Yeah, no one's going to know I'm going to be selling.

02:47:01Josh:Okay.

02:47:01Josh:But I am leaving you behind if somebody pulls you off to the side.

02:47:06Jorge:Okay.

02:47:08Jorge:How about you?

02:47:08Jorge:I'll call you when it's time to do it.

02:47:12Josh:Sure.

02:47:12Jorge:You just show up.

02:47:13Jorge:Okay.

02:47:14Jorge:So I'm going to use discrete inquiry so I can use my, you are subtle in your efforts to learn things.

02:47:21Jorge:Basically, I'm just like, if I have something like this, would you buy it?

02:47:25Jorge:But they don't know.

02:47:25Josh:Absolutely.

02:47:25Jorge:57.

02:47:36Josh:57.

02:47:37Josh:Okay.

02:47:38Josh:I mean, this is effectively Comic-Con.

02:47:43Josh:There are definitely people who would still be willing to purchase this from you on the down low.

02:47:49Josh:Including the guy that you got it from originally.

02:47:52Josh:He'd take it back.

02:47:53Josh:He'd be happy with it.

02:47:53Jorge:Yeah, I will try that.

02:47:55Josh:With that, well, I think you're pretty confident you can get somewhere between 2 to 5k for the comic.

02:48:03Josh:depending on how a follow-up diplomacy role would be, if you wanted to do that.

02:48:07Josh:50 is enough.

02:48:12Jorge:Oh, sorry, that's one minus, so 50.

02:48:16Josh:You can probably get 5k for it.

02:48:19Jorge:Cool.

02:48:20Jorge:You guys want this?

02:48:24Jorge:I don't think this serves any other purpose for us.

02:48:25Jorge:We've already copied.

02:48:26Mike:No, we're solid.

02:48:27Mike:Yeah.

02:48:28Noah:I think...

02:48:30Josh:Okay, so you can summon tech who will just appear in a flash of blue light, accept the credits, and then disappear again in another flash of blue light.

02:48:37Tanner:Okay.

02:48:39Jorge:And then once I sell it, I'm going to turn around.

02:48:41Jorge:And then when I turn back around.

02:48:43Jorge:Sorry, I'm going to spin.

02:48:45Josh:You have cut out.

02:48:50Jorge:And by the time they see me again, I'm going to be.

02:48:53Jorge:different person that I'm going to want.

02:48:55Josh:Okay, absolutely.

02:48:57Josh:Sure.

02:48:58Josh:Not real necessary.

02:48:59Josh:That's a thing that we've already established you can do.

02:49:01Josh:So...

02:49:04Jorge:All right, gentlemen.

02:49:06Jorge:We can each buy one of those things, and then we get the I thing.

02:49:13Mike:So each needed one of the integrated spanners.

02:49:14Jorge:Do we each need one?

02:49:21Noah:Thank you.

02:49:23Jorge:Yeah.

02:49:24Mike:It'd be cool.

02:49:25Mike:It'd be sweet.

02:49:26Mike:We literally have three spanners on us already, spanners, because we have two oniroscopes.

02:49:29Josh:Correct.

02:49:32Mike:And I think one is not modified, so maybe it can't.

02:49:35Josh:You would have to modify it if you wanted it to work like how the first one you have is.

02:49:39Mike:Okay, so we have a spanner and an oniroscope that can take us into dreams.

02:49:43Mike:Because we do have the iPad.

02:49:45Mike:That, that, yeah.

02:49:45Josh:Yeah.

02:49:46Josh:You did pick up a working spanner from the lighthouse.

02:49:51Josh:So you have one.

02:49:53Mike:This is not integrated.

02:49:53Tanner:So we really only need two.

02:49:57Jorge:Yeah.

02:49:58Mike:Well, I've actually let anyone touch the two that he has, so you need three.

02:50:02Jorge:Come on.

02:50:03Jorge:We could really... Yeah, he doesn't let anyone... Lev actually tried to get Divex to fix the other one.

02:50:03Josh:Did I mix those both?

02:50:05Mike:He's always carrying... What would these fucking hooligans...

02:50:09Mike:These hooligans that have no care for the craft of dreams.

02:50:18Noah:You keep cutting out.

02:50:19Mike:You cut out so bad.

02:50:19Josh:You've cut out again.

02:50:20Mike:That one was really bad.

02:50:21Jorge:No!

02:50:21Jorge:No!

02:50:22Josh:How does it feel?

02:50:25Josh:Idiot.

02:50:26Mike:It's really bad.

02:50:32Mike:So I have $80,000 from tech, $5,000 from the comic sale.

02:50:39Mike:What?

02:50:40Mike:Do we have $17,000 from the wine proceeds?

02:50:45Josh:Yeah, and unfortunately I have just killed Jorge, so... Nobody wants that.

02:50:46Mike:Are we just going to chuck that in?

02:50:52Noah:Oh, no.

02:50:53Mike:Oh.

02:50:53Tanner:Yeah, I can see that.

02:50:54Jorge:She asked me.

02:50:54Mike:How much does his body go for?

02:50:56Mike:Not even a roll?

02:51:00Tanner:Oh, my God.

02:51:02Josh:He's dead!

02:51:03Josh:Who are you selling a cadaver to?

02:51:05Josh:It's not an insult to Jorge!

02:51:08Tanner:I understand, but it really didn't sound nice.

02:51:12Josh:I'm sorry, Jorge.

02:51:12Mike:That's a good point.

02:51:13Josh:I apologize when I said that I didn't think that anybody would purchase your cadaver.

02:51:18Mike:Ooh.

02:51:19Mike:Ooh.

02:51:20Mike:Does anyone at... Can I see if anyone at the con is a big fan of clockwork dials?

02:51:29Josh:Yes.

02:51:30Josh:Roll a society check to see if there are any clockwork dial enthusiasts at the con.

02:51:30Noah:Roll a clockwork dial check.

02:51:39Tanner:Oh my god.

02:51:41Tanner:No way.

02:51:45Mike:Fuck.

02:51:45Mike:Okay.

02:51:46Josh:43, that's not a terrible rule.

02:51:48Josh:You do a pretty good survey of the population at MediaCon.

02:51:54Josh:No one is a clockwork dial enthusiast.

02:52:00Josh:Everybody has watches built into their minds.

02:52:05Mike:They're antique.

02:52:08Josh:Not verifiably.

02:52:08Mike:Anyways.

02:52:12Mike:Well, it doesn't matter.

02:52:13Mike:There's a lot of them.

02:52:14Mike:Look it.

02:52:15Mike:If you can find someone that values these, these are worth a lot of money in this quantity.

02:52:19Mike:All you have to do is find someone that will buy them off of you.

02:52:22Josh:You want to be like the Alibaba of clockwork dials specifically?

02:52:26Josh:Okay.

02:52:28Mike:Okay.

02:52:29Mike:All right.

02:52:29Mike:So $40,000 for rebreathers, $5,000 for the good implant, $4,500 for all the bad ones.

02:52:37Mike:Install costs.

02:52:40Mike:We want two integrated spanners.

02:52:43Noah:Yeah, I'll take one.

02:52:44Jorge:Install costs, it's just $1,000 per person.

02:52:48Mike:yeah all right so we get two integrated spanners uh so that leaves us with 38 500. so the eyeball reset was 10 000 the camera access was also 10 000 what was the grenade explode okay what was the the fourth hack

02:53:04Josh:All of the hacks are 10, except for the grenade, which is 20.

02:53:11Josh:Remote takeover.

02:53:14Josh:If a camera is within line of sight of you, you can look through the perspective of that camera.

02:53:20Mike:So it's eyeball reset, camera takeover, grenade explode, and then bake.

02:53:20Jorge:That seems useful.

02:53:21Noah:Make someone walk over to where you are.

02:53:29Noah:Which... I don't know if... That one seems the least useful, I would say.

02:53:29Josh:Bait.

02:53:34Tanner:That is like you are the diversion for a plan is what that does.

02:53:40Noah:Yeah.

02:53:42Noah:We have Lev for that.

02:53:44Jorge:Yeah, you got to sneak in while I do that.

02:53:48Mike:Yeah.

02:53:48Tanner:Right.

02:53:49Tanner:I'm just, yeah, I'm not saying we should get it.

02:53:51Tanner:I'm just saying that's the use case.

02:53:53Jorge:It's a shame we don't have two more thousand dollars.

02:53:53Noah:I think that one could be useful.

02:53:53Mike:I think I'll put us down for the camera access one.

02:54:01Mike:Then we're at 28K.

02:54:04Mike:You want eyeball reset too?

02:54:14Mike:Why?

02:54:14Mike:Oh, yeah.

02:54:15Jorge:Because then we could just get the grenade one too.

02:54:21Mike:Make sure this is summing everything it needs to.

02:54:24Mike:It's not.

02:54:25Tanner:How far off were we?

02:54:27Jorge:2000.

02:54:27Jorge:Yeah, you can drop my spinner and you guys can start working.

02:54:28Mike:Yeah, 1,500.

02:54:30Tanner:I mean we could drop another spanner, theoretically.

02:54:36Noah:Yeah.

02:54:40Jorge:Other an iriscope.

02:54:46Mike:Okay, we'll get the grenade explode then.

02:54:49Mike:This doesn't mean we just have $3,500 for the casino, but I don't think we're planning on doing anything.

02:54:55Noah:Am I gambling too much?

02:54:56Jorge:All right.

02:55:01Mike:Alrighty.

02:55:03Mike:We are ready.

02:55:04Mike:We've got our orders.

02:55:10Josh:Okay.

02:55:14Josh:Absolutely.

02:55:15Josh:So you guys have gone through you planned out and budgeted.

02:55:21Josh:You know, just trying to figuring out how to distribute the money here.

02:55:25Josh:Kind of still going on, although it's starting to wind down a little bit.

02:55:30Josh:Yes.

02:55:31Jorge:We still want to see the talk show with Invix.

02:55:34Noah:Hmm.

02:55:34Josh:Absolutely.

02:55:37Josh:We can head over to the talk show with MX.

02:55:43Josh:I would like, as you guys are heading over, a perception check, please.

02:55:48Tanner:Hell yeah.

02:55:49Tanner:That's my bread and butter.

02:55:52Mike:one or two.

02:55:55Josh:Up to two.

02:55:56Tanner:I got a pretty low roll.

02:55:58Mike:Yeah, we expected that.

02:56:02Mike:Who is Gin Soaked Rag?

02:56:02Tanner:Nice.

02:56:04Noah:Did you just catch that one?

02:56:04Josh:You're just being spoken to by a piece of alcoholic cloth.

02:56:07Noah:Who...

02:56:09Tanner:They keep talking about Færrin, so...

02:56:12Mike:Oh.

02:56:17Josh:That happens.

02:56:19Mike:Okay.

02:56:20Mike:You had to skip a campaign?

02:56:21Mike:You're like, guys, I can't.

02:56:23Mike:I can't have a ghost bartender for fucking... I can't have an incorporeal bartender two campaigns in a row.

02:56:27Josh:Yeah.

02:56:30Mike:We gotta have a breather in them.

02:56:31Josh:That'd be crazy.

02:56:32Josh:Yeah, exactly.

02:56:33Josh:You get a little bit of a break and then they're back.

02:56:37Josh:What'd we get?

02:56:39Mike:47.

02:56:40Mike:The higher roll.

02:56:40Josh:Okay.

02:56:42Josh:Sure.

02:56:45Josh:With a 47, as you guys are heading back towards the expo hall where this talk is happening, you do catch out of the corner of your eye as you're moving through the crowd.

02:56:56Josh:Some of the crowd is moving with you.

02:56:59Josh:Actually, a vaguely familiar part of the crowd is moving with you.

02:57:06Mike:The top half.

02:57:08Josh:No, it's some people inside of the crowd.

02:57:11Josh:Excuse you.

02:57:12Josh:There are a few people who are really chromed out.

02:57:20Josh:Terrible.

02:57:22Noah:Are we going to beef with the cyber crew?

02:57:23Josh:Like, completely replaced their lower half with metal.

02:57:28Mike:A cyber crew.

02:57:29Josh:Yeah, actually.

02:57:31Josh:It kind of looks like the cyber crew is following you guys.

02:57:34Josh:And before you make it out of the Central Pavilion, one of the guys from the cyber crew will kind of duck in front of you to block your way out and say, Hey, man.

02:57:38Mike:We won.

02:57:49Mike:Well, one of us won.

02:57:51Josh:Where do you think you're going?

02:57:54Noah:going to we're going to go well we're not clearing out we're going over to the yeah okay yeah well we didn't we won

02:57:56Jorge:Oh, hello.

02:57:57Jorge:What's going on?

02:57:59Mike:I've got that talk.

02:57:59Josh:Yeah, I think we should maybe stop and have a little bit of a chat before you clear out.

02:58:07Mike:You were going to talk, yeah.

02:58:10Josh:That looks like it's somewhere other than here, dude.

02:58:13Mike:Yeah, it's over there.

02:58:14Mike:Yeah, that's kind of the... Yeah.

02:58:15Josh:Listen, it was totally uncool how you robbed us.

02:58:21Jorge:Uh...

02:58:22Josh:No, I don't even know who you're dressed up as.

02:58:25Noah:We're the left.

02:58:27Josh:Like, yeah, that's not a real thing.

02:58:28Jorge:Well, no.

02:58:29Josh:I searched for you.

02:58:30Noah:No, it's from the light aspect.

02:58:31Josh:You made it up.

02:58:31Mike:From the lighthouse.

02:58:33Josh:And I saw you talking to those judges afterwards.

02:58:36Josh:Clearly you rigged this.

02:58:38Noah:I mean, even still, if that was true, which it's not, we came in second and then Tarv won, so we both lost to Tarv.

02:58:46Josh:Yeah, but you guys are getting an implant and I need that implant.

02:58:46Mike:Yeah, save up.

02:58:52Noah:What's the influence?

02:58:52Josh:What am I going to do with a gift card?

02:58:53Jorge:It's very unfortunate.

02:58:55Noah:Buy an implant?

02:58:57Josh:It's not nearly enough.

02:58:58Josh:You're getting a high-quality implant.

02:59:00Josh:What could I get with 250 creds?

02:59:02Josh:Like, a hamburger?

02:59:04Noah:A low quality implant?

02:59:05Jorge:I'm going to, Levmir is going to, it makes a lot of sense, and pull out this weird black blindfold and then tie it around his eyes so it covers his eyes.

02:59:19Jorge:And they, I believe, will have to, first time a particular creature sees it in a day, they must make a 37 will save or be frightened.

02:59:30Josh:Okay.

02:59:32Jorge:Unfortunately, that's everyone that sees it.

02:59:34Jorge:You have to get... It takes a week.

02:59:35Josh:The whole crowd?

02:59:36Josh:You're walking- he stops you as you're walking out of the pavilion.

02:59:38Jorge:Are they all looking at it?

02:59:39Jorge:I thought we were on the side.

02:59:40Mike:It takes a week?

02:59:43Jorge:Oh, never mind.

02:59:43Jorge:Then I won't put this on.

02:59:45Josh:Okay.

02:59:45Jorge:I will just be like... I will lean in and go, You do not want this fight, my friend.

02:59:51Jorge:I promise you, we will bring something that you will not understand.

02:59:58Jorge:And I will attempt to intimidate him.

02:59:59Josh:Demoralized?

03:00:01Jorge:Yeah.

03:00:02Jorge:The more alliance works, as will.

03:00:02Josh:Okay, so what is that a rule against?

03:00:07Josh:Okay, make a rule.

03:00:14Jorge:I'm an idiot.

03:00:15Jorge:Tanner, don't look at that.

03:00:18Mike:Look at it, Tanner.

03:00:19Mike:Look at it.

03:00:20Mike:Tell us what it was.

03:00:20Jorge:Don't look at it.

03:00:24Jorge:OK, so it's 20.

03:00:24Josh:What happened?

03:00:28Josh:Did you send a message to Tanner?

03:00:30Josh:Okay, 54 is a critical success, so he's frightened too, right?

03:00:30Jorge:I did 54.

03:00:39Jorge:Yes.

03:00:41Josh:Absolutely.

03:00:42Tanner:He deleted it before I could read it.

03:00:45Josh:So you'll never know what he rolled.

03:00:47Jorge:Never.

03:00:47Josh:But actually, I know what he sent you, because the dice pot is not in your personal chat.

03:00:47Noah:Bummer.

03:00:54Tanner:No, I don't think it is.

03:00:54Jorge:Yeah.

03:00:57Noah:That'd be crazy if it was.

03:00:59Josh:So he looks like skeeved out by this.

03:01:02Josh:And he'll say, listen, dude, I just give me the implant and I won't spread the video that you guys rigged the competition.

03:01:11Josh:I don't want to fight.

03:01:12Josh:I just want what's due.

03:01:14Josh:We would have gotten second if you hadn't cheated.

03:01:17Josh:The rest of the cyber crew have been inching closer to your location as this is going on.

03:01:17Noah:I mean, we didn't cheat, but sure, go ahead, spread the video.

03:01:19Noah:I don't care.

03:01:28Noah:We better get jumped by the fucking weebs.

03:01:30Mike:Wait, hold on.

03:01:32Mike:I missed the video part.

03:01:33Mike:What, they recorded us?

03:01:35Josh:Yeah, I saw you talking to two of the judges, and yet somehow people who are part of an IP that has never existed, as best as I can tell, and I'm pretty good at searching things on the RET, I don't know how you won.

03:01:48Noah:I don't think so.

03:01:52Josh:You just look like some kind of stupid-ass Renfair punks.

03:01:53Mike:How about this?

03:01:58Noah:Red Fair.

03:01:58Mike:How about you go away before the storm brewing in another area of the universe comes through the window and I will use disturbing knowledge.

03:02:07Mike:Everyone in the cyber crew has to I get to attack their will their will DC.

03:02:14Josh:Okay.

03:02:14Jorge:And this dude has minus two.

03:02:16Noah:What is happening right now?

03:02:16Josh:Because he's Frank.

03:02:16Mike:Oh Jesus.

03:02:17Josh:Yes.

03:02:20Noah:How to get jumped by weebs at Comic-Con.

03:02:24Mike:It's an occultism chick against the will DC of

03:02:24Josh:At Comic-Con.

03:02:28Josh:Okay.

03:02:28Mike:every enemy in 30 feet well i think it's probably the ones that i don't know maybe it's ones i pick any number of enemies within 30 feet yeah oh no you know this is who i pick

03:02:31Josh:Every enemy, specifically?

03:02:40Josh:Oh, okay, so you can select them.

03:02:41Josh:I just wanted to make sure it wasn't like the blindfold where it's just everybody who can see you.

03:02:52Mike:Jesus Christ.

03:02:54Mike:Alright, that's fine.

03:02:55Tanner:Well.

03:02:56Mike:46.

03:02:57Mike:I have no way of rerolling that.

03:02:58Josh:A 46 crits all eight of them.

03:03:02Mike:Okay, so they're confused for one round and frightened one.

03:03:09Josh:Okay.

03:03:10Josh:Absolutely.

03:03:10Jorge:And I think we should just calmly walk away.

03:03:12Mike:Yeah, we're just gonna... Confused means they're gonna start hitting each other.

03:03:12Jorge:Because they just start...

03:03:13Noah:And keep going.

03:03:13Josh:Well, okay, so here's the thing.

03:03:18Josh:Yes, confused means you start attacking wildly and anyone who you don't treat anyone as your ally.

03:03:26Josh:So eight chromed out weird weebs with actual swords for hands start flailing in every direction.

03:03:39Noah:I'm going to start yelling for help.

03:03:40Noah:Help!

03:03:41Noah:We're being attacked by the Chrome gang.

03:03:44Mike:What's these people's problem?

03:03:45Mike:We'll make a huge scene and try to get them kicked out.

03:03:48Josh:Absolutely.

03:03:49Josh:Yeah, no.

03:03:51Josh:encounter completely sidestepped.

03:03:54Josh:All eight of them start flailing wildly and definitely attract the attention of the security of the con, who will... You note that the security is definitely better outfit than random people.

03:04:07Josh:They have these net launcher type deals that they shoot at the people and it just wraps around them and delivers an electric shock and they all just flatten.

03:04:16Mike:Shall we head to the talk, Chet?

03:04:22Josh:Nothing to see here, folks.

03:04:24Josh:Nothing to see here.

03:04:25Josh:And a security guard is just kind of shooing people out of the way.

03:04:28Tanner:hello hello

03:04:28Josh:It does look like some of the standers by did absolutely get nicked by swords that were just waving around.

03:04:35Josh:But nobody looks like, you know, killed.

03:04:39Josh:So that's good, I suppose.

03:04:45Noah:It's crazy that we came halfway across the galaxy, we're trying to save our entire planet, and these guys are like, hey, how dare you beat us in the costume contest?

03:04:45Josh:We continue.

03:04:45Jorge:Yes.

03:04:45Mike:Dimensional turn around after causing these people to go insane with a fucking straight up omen.

03:04:54Josh:Yeah.

03:05:05Noah:And we're like, we do not have time for this right now.

03:05:08Tanner:And they're threatening to cyber bully us.

03:05:10Mike:You know what the fun part is?

03:05:12Mike:I can do this feat in a different language and it still works.

03:05:16Noah:terrifying putting out so

03:05:16Mike:So I could have just like, just started speaking like Giant, like, and they'd have been like, what the fuck?

03:05:23Jorge:What's also funny is that... There, they really do not know what they stumbled across.

03:05:30Jorge:They're like, we don't know what you... It's like, yeah, because... Partial... Minds... Outside of... Because we're hunting it.

03:05:40Jorge:And we... We're gonna kill this motherfucker.

03:05:42Josh:You cut out a bunch of times, but I think it was thematic for that particular moment.

03:05:44Jorge:Planet.

03:05:44Jorge:And they're like, what are you talking about?

03:05:47Tanner:Jorge, I think at some point your audio input might have changed, like earlier in the session.

03:05:53Jorge:Oh no, is it still bad?

03:05:56Jorge:No!

03:05:57Mike:yeah yeah also from the perspective of of the cyber crew because if you said anything about the Feep they wouldn't be able to hear you so if you're just like and the the and then we're gonna and this thing just

03:05:58Jorge:No!

03:06:02Jorge:Point came across.

03:06:02Tanner:It actually made it better, yeah.

03:06:03Josh:Because it was like you were being bleeped.

03:06:05Noah:Thank you.

03:06:23Josh:Completely incapacitated them.

03:06:27Mike:I've been waiting to use that feat for so long.

03:06:29Tanner:Anyway, these people tried to cyberbully us and we don't even have access to the internet yet.

03:06:38Noah:Yeah, that's really funny to be like, I want to post this video of you and us being like, we don't even live on this planet, man.

03:06:38Josh:Correct.

03:06:44Jorge:Hendrik and Levmir also swapped some items.

03:06:45Josh:They didn't know that!

03:06:48Mike:We're from Hall of Fame.

03:06:49Mike:We keep telling people this.

03:06:50Mike:Why don't we just grab people by the lapel?

03:06:53Mike:We're from Hall of Fame.

03:06:55Mike:Like, geez, these guys are really in character.

03:06:56Josh:I'm sorry?

03:07:06Tanner:Unfortunately, I'm going to have to read people's auras now.

03:07:10Jorge:I gave him the third eye.

03:07:10Josh:You gave him the tattoo that was on your forehead?

03:07:12Jorge:So the third eye gets, when it's invested,

03:07:16Jorge:So as it invests, it turns into a tattoo.

03:07:19Jorge:Otherwise, it's a thing.

03:07:22Tanner:It is an item, but then when you invest, it becomes... Right.

03:07:24Josh:Okay, sure.

03:07:26Josh:Yeah, he took his tattoo off and then he gave it to Henrik, short.

03:07:30Jorge:Yeah.

03:07:31Jorge:And then I took his cat eyes.

03:07:34Josh:Okay.

03:07:35Jorge:It was fun to have for a little bit, but I was like, let's be honest here.

03:07:38Jorge:Patrick should have this item.

03:07:39Jorge:It makes way more sense for him.

03:07:41Jorge:And I still have eyes of him.

03:07:43Mike:Yeah, he's the only one that can exercise enough restraint when seeing someone's hit points.

03:07:49Tanner:Especially if it tells me that they're below max.

03:07:50Mike:Thrust the team.

03:07:53Josh:Ooh.

03:07:53Josh:Does it tell you if they're Palomax?

03:07:55Noah:No.

03:07:58Jorge:No.

03:07:59Tanner:Ooh!

03:07:59Jorge:Oh, this is remaining.

03:08:00Tanner:An approximate percentage of its remaining hit points.

03:08:03Josh:Good to know.

03:08:05Jorge:Oh, and all conditions and afflictions it has on

03:08:05Tanner:So...

03:08:06Josh:Okay, yes.

03:08:10Josh:Oh.

03:08:11Josh:Okay, that seems more important than whatever their max HP is.

03:08:15Mike:for some

03:08:18Josh:Okay.

03:08:20Josh:Out of curiosity, does it tell you the actual hit point number?

03:08:24Tanner:It conveys that creature's health, including all conditions and afflictions, and an approximate... Third eye?

03:08:29Josh:What is the name of the item?

03:08:32Josh:third eye blind okay you can perceive that

03:08:35Jorge:I sent the link.

03:08:41Noah:This is crazy.

03:08:44Tanner:How much money did you have, Jorge?

03:08:47Jorge:So I sold the sword and wardrobe stone and then some adamantine.

03:08:53Tanner:Uh...

03:08:54Jorge:So the wardrobe stone, really nice.

03:08:56Jorge:But I specced specifically to do a bunch of disguises.

03:09:00Jorge:And unfortunately, that turns it into a minute.

03:09:02Jorge:And then it turns into an illusion effect.

03:09:04Jorge:So I sold it.

03:09:05Jorge:And then the sword, I'm not evil, and I figured the best people to actually sell this to was Sedecium.

03:09:15Josh:Nice.

03:09:15Jorge:So I sold both of those.

03:09:19Mike:Here I was thinking that you were just gifted it in the night by Nox and I wasn't going to ask any questions because I literally sorted by highest level item and then I just skimmed and was like, oh.

03:09:31Mike:That's one of them.

03:09:35Jorge:Yeah.

03:09:35Josh:Okay.

03:09:36Josh:Absolutely.

03:09:36Jorge:No, but I do have Eyes of God from Nox from the Mortal Herald.

03:09:41Jorge:But...

03:09:43Tanner:you

03:09:45Josh:Which is now on?

03:09:50Josh:Maybe.

03:09:50Josh:I don't know.

03:09:51Mike:Might be off.

03:09:53Mike:We never know.

03:09:53Josh:I wasn't sure if it was on Archives of Nethis yet or not.

03:09:56Josh:Regardless.

03:09:58Josh:You guys have thoroughly confused the cyber crew.

03:10:02Josh:And you can continue into the pavilion where the seminar on talk show hosts in media is occurring.

03:10:12Josh:You get in there.

03:10:13Josh:It's not...

03:10:14Josh:This is not one of the, like, well-packed seminars.

03:10:18Josh:Like, they've put a bunch of rows of seats for people to sit in.

03:10:21Josh:Nobody's in the first few rows.

03:10:24Josh:But, you know, there are a few people spread throughout the back area.

03:10:27Josh:You're not the only ones in the theater, but you're, you know, maybe only a third full before they start talking.

03:10:36Josh:There are three people here, besides the...

03:10:42Josh:Gosh, not the announcer, facilitator.

03:10:44Josh:One of whom, definitely familiar to you.

03:10:48Josh:Um...

03:10:50Josh:There are three definitely straight-up talk show host-looking people, as much as somebody can look like the host of a talk show.

03:10:59Josh:One of them, dark-skinned, velvet suit, cloudy eye, it's Imex.

03:11:05Josh:It looks like Imex, unchanged from how you have seen him in the lighthouse.

03:11:11Josh:And the three of them are set up there.

03:11:14Josh:The facilitator, whose name is...

03:11:18Josh:Rex Fathom says, all right, folks, we don't really have anything planned.

03:11:24Josh:We're just going to go from each of them, have them talk a little bit about their work, how they think portraying a talk show host has aided them in their careers.

03:11:34Josh:And then we're just going to open up the floor to questions.

03:11:37Josh:That sounds good with y'all.

03:11:40Josh:And so they go all the way through.

03:11:42Josh:Immix, notably, doesn't bring up you guys at all.

03:11:47Josh:Although I would like a perception check, if I could.

03:11:48Jorge:From two people?

03:11:51Noah:Wolf.

03:11:51Josh:Up to two people.

03:11:52Tanner:I'll do it.

03:11:57Jorge:All right, Davex him to the other one.

03:11:59Mike:Yeah, just in case this guy will fuck up.

03:12:04Tanner:He got a 38.

03:12:05Mike:Yeah, that's why I'm here, you know?

03:12:08Mike:Please be higher.

03:12:10Mike:Barely.

03:12:12Josh:Okay.

03:12:16Tanner:I got a 36.

03:12:17Tanner:Am I...

03:12:21Tanner:Am I also able to try to read Immix's aura?

03:12:25Josh:Yeah, actually, if you want to read his aura, it's a different perception check to read his aura, and you're gonna make me pull up his stat block.

03:12:33Tanner:Sorry.

03:12:33Tanner:I made a promise.

03:12:34Josh:That's fine.

03:12:35Josh:...

03:12:35Noah:But again, this is what...

03:12:37Jorge:Yes!

03:12:38Jorge:I made him promise to read a lot of auras.

03:12:40Jorge:And you still have the coin I gave you.

03:12:42Tanner:Wait, I have another hero point.

03:12:44Tanner:I'll use it.

03:12:52Tanner:Master means I get plus 4, right?

03:12:55Tanner:That's how that works.

03:12:56Tanner:47 on that aura.

03:12:58Jorge:Yes.

03:13:03Josh:47?

03:13:03Josh:Okay.

03:13:06Josh:So now that I know what this thing actually does, he has 100% of his 500 HP.

03:13:12Josh:He's not at all injured.

03:13:14Mike:Damn it.

03:13:19Josh:What conditions is he under?

03:13:20Josh:Is he under any conditions?

03:13:21Tanner:He's lucky.

03:13:22Tanner:He is lucky.

03:13:23Tanner:Also, just not directly related to that, were we under the impression that he could not leave Althane, or is it just...

03:13:23Josh:He is currently under the effects of true seeing and true speech.

03:13:29Noah:Oh.

03:13:30Josh:Sorry, true sight and true speech.

03:13:45Josh:I don't know if you were ever explicitly told that he could or couldn't, but this is the first time you've seen him anywhere that isn't his stage.

03:13:51Jorge:He's not divine anymore, so he can leave.

03:13:56Jorge:The lighthouse won't keep him.

03:13:59Noah:He gave his divinity.

03:14:00Noah:Interesting.

03:14:03Josh:Okay, so, Divex, you were the one that got the higher of the two perception checks, right?

03:14:08Mike:Yes.

03:14:09Josh:So the thing that you notice is while he's giving his little spiel about how rewarding it is to be a talk show host, he will make direct eye contact with you and say, you know, it's just been great being able to meet so many interesting people.

03:14:28Josh:There are some people that I've just had the honor of following throughout a long journey, and it's been interesting seeing them grow.

03:14:34Josh:I'm excited to see where that trajectory takes them.

03:14:39Josh:Although I do have to say I am a sucker for a tragic ending, so we'll see how our general plotline plays out.

03:14:48Mike:How is the crowd reaction to this?

03:14:50Mike:Like, is they just, like, silently listening, or are they like...

03:14:54Josh:Yeah, it's not like there's cheering or anything like that.

03:14:56Josh:You see a few people nodding along with what he's saying.

03:15:00Josh:I will say, you don't see a lot of recognition from the crowd.

03:15:04Josh:Not many people here seem to know who he is, necessarily.

03:15:07Josh:But, you know, he's a panelist, so he must be a talk show host.

03:15:11Jorge:He just did the Kendrick's say Drake with a smile into the camera.

03:15:16Jorge:He's like, say Drake.

03:15:20Mike:So was there a mention of a Q&A section at the end?

03:15:25Josh:Yeah, absolutely.

03:15:26Josh:There's a Q&A section.

03:15:28Josh:This one is not being moderated by someone.

03:15:31Josh:It's just an open mic.

03:15:31Noah:I think Lev's hand went up a second for mine.

03:15:34Josh:And so the facilitator will say, okay, now that they've all said their piece, I'm sure that all of you have been waiting for this.

03:15:39Josh:If you have any questions that you want to ask about their careers, what they've been up to, all of that kind of stuff, just come up to the mic.

03:15:46Josh:First come, first serve.

03:15:47Josh:We're here for the next half hour.

03:15:52Josh:Sure.

03:15:52Jorge:Thank you guys all for coming here.

03:15:53Josh:OK, Lev, you can you can walk up.

03:15:54Josh:There isn't like a stampede of people heading towards the mic like there was with the Omnivox seminar.

03:16:02Josh:So it is easy enough for you to get there.

03:16:07Jorge:I'm sure it was a very long journey.

03:16:10Jorge:I hope we can get something full for it, because otherwise it would be kind of sad.

03:16:14Jorge:But anyway, do you guys ever feel as talk show hosts-ish in a

03:16:21Jorge:In media, do you ever feel powerless when you watch other characters have their full character arcs and then you kind of sit there and you just observe and you don't really get to change anything?

03:16:34Jorge:Especially when the protagonists prevail.

03:16:38Josh:So I think one of the other talk show hosts will say...

03:16:45Josh:No, honestly, it's kind of our job to just facilitate that protagonist's journey to the viewers.

03:16:54Josh:We're there to serve as kind of exposition.

03:16:56Josh:I think it's very fulfilling.

03:16:58Josh:We are an extension of the script laid out for everybody.

03:17:02Josh:I think that's just neat.

03:17:05Josh:And Immix will take the mic from them and be like, I have to agree with my

03:17:15Josh:Coworker is the wrong term.

03:17:18Josh:Brother in art, we'll call them.

03:17:18Jorge:Ear.

03:17:20Josh:Peer, sure.

03:17:21Josh:That's a thing, too.

03:17:22Josh:I think...

03:17:26Josh:mapping out someone else's journey is much more interesting, especially when I, you know, my personal life, I've already, you know, done the ups and downs of growth and all that.

03:17:38Josh:I feel like I've hit a nice stopping point.

03:17:39Josh:So instead I get to live vicariously, uh, track other people's journeys.

03:17:44Josh:I mean, talk show hosts are all about interviewing others, seeing what they're thinking, um, you know, following their movements.

03:17:52Josh:but it's all been very interesting.

03:17:52Tanner:you

03:17:56Josh:Yeah, Dawn.

03:17:58Jorge:Thanks.

03:17:58Noah:Does Immix say, yeah, Don?

03:18:00Josh:She does.

03:18:03Noah:Immix, thank you.

03:18:04Noah:It's great to see you.

03:18:05Noah:I love the show.

03:18:06Noah:I know that it can probably be really draining having to sit there and listen to everyone else's stories.

03:18:13Noah:Personally, I find solitude in family, my close friends.

03:18:18Noah:How do you guys find solitude at the end of the day?

03:18:21Noah:You spend so much time telling other people's stories.

03:18:23Noah:Do you have that outlet to tell someone else your story?

03:18:29Josh:The third talk show host, the one that hasn't spoken, starts to answer and Immix cuts them off and says, well, you know, it's a pretty cutthroat industry and all of us have done what we need to do to get where we are.

03:18:45Josh:Do I have regrets?

03:18:47Josh:No.

03:18:47Josh:Would I do it again?

03:18:48Josh:Yes.

03:18:54Josh:And that's it.

03:18:54Josh:He doesn't actually answer your question.

03:18:58Josh:Anyone else?

03:19:00Noah:Hand the mic to Divex.

03:19:03Mike:Yeah, specifically for Immix.

03:19:05Mike:So you mentioned earlier that you are a sucker for a tragic ending, but you also sort of talked about your duty as a steward to the story.

03:19:14Mike:Is your sucker for a tragic ending some sort of schadenfreude?

03:19:18Mike:Do you come to resent the characters that you're telling stories about?

03:19:23Mike:Or is it more, I don't know.

03:19:27Mike:I mean, why do you like a tragic ending?

03:19:29Mike:Maybe the other panelists would like to comment on that.

03:19:32Mike:a desire for tragic endings.

03:19:34Josh:he'll immediately respond with, they wouldn't, I'll take them.

03:19:39Jorge:transform just to what else for my next question just to look like more people are asking questions and you should see through it but it's like it's fine

03:19:41Josh:The facilitator is dumbfounded at this, given that it looked like they didn't know who Imex was, and now three people have come up and directed a question directly at the person who nobody knows who they are or why they're here.

03:19:55Josh:Um...

03:20:03Noah:Thank you.

03:20:05Josh:Immix will respond with, no, see, I've been in this industry for a very long time.

03:20:13Josh:I think long enough that I can safely say I am detached from any particular attachments I would see to, you know, myself and, you know, the people that step onto my stage.

03:20:26Josh:And I get the questions.

03:20:27Josh:It really is...

03:20:28Josh:entertainment.

03:20:29Josh:And I think that's what a lot of people don't get.

03:20:31Josh:It's not like projecting.

03:20:34Josh:People like a good tragedy because it's a good story and it wraps itself up in a neat little bow.

03:20:40Josh:Everybody talks about a happy ending is a happily ever after.

03:20:43Josh:That doesn't happen.

03:20:44Josh:You can't be positive that somebody makes it out of the end happy and stays that way.

03:20:50Josh:But at a tragedy, you know exactly where everybody ends up.

03:20:54Josh:That is a neat little ending.

03:20:57Josh:Even if you can see it coming from miles down the road, even if everybody watching already knows what the ending is going to be and they're just waiting for it to happen, that anticipation...

03:21:09Josh:Excellent.

03:21:10Josh:And when you actually get it achieved, and the people you've been following for however many years fail, lying dead in the dust, nothing better.

03:21:12Jorge:Excuse me, sir.

03:21:22Mike:To reply to that before I hand it off, it's not really a question, but just a comment.

03:21:27Jorge:I think I was next, but okay.

03:21:30Noah:I'm not sure.

03:21:31Mike:I mean, to me, it seems like a tragedy is too simple.

03:21:34Mike:I mean, you have an end point.

03:21:35Mike:The fun part about happy endings is someone overcame something, and now their story is still yet to be finished.

03:21:41Mike:So perhaps it's a simple thing, but I, for one, am very optimistic about endings of stories no matter the odds.

03:21:50Mike:And then we'll hand the microphone to whoever's next.

03:21:52Josh:Of course.

03:21:53Jorge:I had changed into some other look.

03:21:56Josh:At this point, one of the other talk shows just like hands up in the air and walks off stage.

03:21:57Jorge:Hey, thanks for answering questions, Immix.

03:21:59Jorge:It's really great to see you.

03:22:08Jorge:You know, what I was kind of upset about with your show was that we were following those really cool team ragtag group, and they just kind of like, we stopped seeing it, you know?

03:22:08Noah:Thank you.

03:22:18Jorge:And I think I can speak for everyone here that's seen it.

03:22:21Jorge:It was very clear that

03:22:23Jorge:You were backing the wrong horse in the race.

03:22:26Jorge:Did you guys cancel it to save face?

03:22:29Jorge:Scared of everyone seeing their triumph?

03:22:32Jorge:It's still going to be some tragedy.

03:22:34Jorge:It's not always tragedy, but you think that's why they cut it?

03:22:37Josh:Frankly, it's clear to me that you're not a longtime watcher of our show, because you know that we've been following all of the interesting people all the way through.

03:22:45Josh:Sure, we only get them in for an interview once or twice, but we've been keeping Anaïs out.

03:22:50Josh:You know, all the people that matter, I suppose, have been making regular appearances on our show.

03:22:58Josh:Yes, Don, again.

03:23:02Noah:Hey, Imex, great to see you again.

03:23:03Noah:Speaking of people that matter, we've been walking around a whole bunch and we put on these great cosplays and we really feel like we put our whole heart into who we are for this.

03:23:14Noah:It's such a shame.

03:23:15Noah:No one I've talked to here...

03:23:18Noah:knows who we are or who you are and that doesn't really bother me so much because you know this is just our life but as someone who's committed their entire life to this and i you know up on that stage i can only assume you look out into a blank void of an audience you just have to assume that someone's out there watching and listening and caring about everything you do what's it like to know that if you ask someone about your show or who Immix is nobody knows the name

03:23:47Josh:Nah, I'm sorry.

03:23:52Noah:Amix attacks us right now.

03:23:54Mike:at his ass.

03:23:57Jorge:There's another person queued up that is a different person ready to talk.

03:24:01Noah:Lavender mustache.

03:24:04Mike:Can we get Lev dressed as Mrs. Doubtfire?

03:24:05Noah:Cool.

03:24:07Noah:That seems kind of low.

03:24:09Mike:Now, I've been watching this show from the comfort of my home, and I have to notice that the guy who's narrating the whole thing is Big Ol' Dunce.

03:24:18Mike:Yes, that would be me, ma'am.

03:24:20Mike:Oh, I'm terribly sorry.

03:24:21Mike:I didn't realize it was you.

03:24:22Mike:I don't have my glasses on.

03:24:28Josh:He'll take a second before he responds.

03:24:36Josh:This is tiring.

03:24:40Josh:Frankly, it's better than being dead.

03:24:44Josh:And it's something that you would learn.

03:24:46Josh:Sometimes you make decisions that you don't like to avoid dying.

03:24:53Josh:And it's something that you should begin considering.

03:24:57Josh:And he'll walk off stage.

03:25:00Jorge:Immix, I had a question for you as well.

03:25:03Jorge:I'd like to follow Immix.

03:25:04Noah:I'll clap so loudly as he... Woo!

03:25:04Josh:He's left the stage.

03:25:08Josh:The facilitator will say, well, this was not how I expected this to go, but we still have one host left.

03:25:12Tanner:oh my god oh oh

03:25:18Josh:If anybody wants to ask them any questions.

03:25:22Noah:Yeah.

03:25:23Josh:Sure, go for it.

03:25:24Noah:If Lev's going, I'll jog after him.

03:25:24Mike:He's just...

03:25:26Josh:Terrible.

03:25:26Jorge:Yeah.

03:25:27Josh:So you guys just walk up onto stage and then into the back area?

03:25:31Jorge:Yeah.

03:25:33Josh:Absolutely.

03:25:34Josh:Okay, so ignoring the facilitator, the one talk show host who are trying to keep any semblance of control here, you walk on stage, they're like, hey, what are you doing?

03:25:35Noah:Everyone, the costume contest.

03:25:45Josh:And you just keep going into the backstage.

03:25:46Jorge:Excuse me.

03:25:49Jorge:Great job.

03:25:49Josh:You pull back the curtain, follow Imex, and that's where we'll end it for today's session.

03:25:49Jorge:Great job.

03:25:50Noah:Excellent.

03:25:51Noah:Shake their hands.

03:26:00Josh:If you could, so we don't forget what you guys are planning on purchasing.

03:26:03Josh:Mike, can you like send your list of your bill of materials or whatever?

03:26:09Mike:Mm hmm.

03:26:09Josh:Just so it doesn't get dropped between.

03:26:11Josh:Oh, yeah.

03:26:17Josh:I like how at some point, maybe like two or three TV shows in, you guys became openly antagonistic towards Imex.

03:26:25Tanner:Well he sold out his family.

03:26:27Josh:Like, literally every time you have the chance to shit talk him to his face, you will do so.

03:26:33Jorge:Yeah.

03:26:36Noah:Yeah.

03:26:36Josh:Yeah, he's not a good guy.

03:26:39Noah:I feel like we didn't know.

03:26:40Noah:We were just like, I don't know what's happening.

03:26:42Noah:And then we found that out.

03:26:43Noah:We were like, fuck this guy.

03:26:46Josh:Yeah.

03:26:47Josh:At some point, it was justified.

03:26:49Josh:I don't know if it started out justified, to be completely honest, but it's justified now.

03:26:50Noah:Yeah.

03:26:54Josh:It's fine.

03:26:55Tanner:I think probably it was.

03:26:55Josh:He's an unrepentant asshole.

03:26:57Josh:It happens.

03:27:00Tanner:Yeah, he said he'd do it again.

03:27:00Noah:Great.

03:27:01Tanner:He doesn't care about his sister.

03:27:02Josh:He did.

03:27:02Noah:Yeah.

03:27:08Jorge:Very sad.

03:27:08Josh:Uh...

03:27:09Jorge:Unless that's his sister and those clones.

03:27:09Noah:He killed Sarek's.

03:27:14Jorge:I don't know.

03:27:14Jorge:The weird twins.

03:27:16Noah:I don't know what they are.

03:27:18Noah:That's crazy.

03:27:19Josh:Who knows?

03:27:21Josh:You've gotten, like, I think, enough detail to figure it out, but I'm not going to hold your hand through it.

03:27:28Josh:Oh.

03:27:30Tanner:What are we trying to figure out?

03:27:32Noah:Who the...

03:27:34Josh:Completely unrelated.

03:27:35Josh:Craig is a weasel.

03:27:38Tanner:Craig?

03:27:39Tanner:What did he do?

03:27:41Josh:I asked in the support chat.

03:27:42Mike:Yeah.

03:27:44Josh:It was confirmed.

03:27:45Josh:Craig is a weasel.

03:27:47Tanner:He's given our data to somebody?

03:27:50Josh:to me.

03:27:51Jorge:Weasels are notoriously thieves.

03:27:55Josh:Stop being speciesist.

03:27:57Mike:They're also eavesdroppers.

03:27:57Tanner:Oh.

03:27:58Tanner:I am very stupid.

03:27:59Josh:No.

03:28:00Tanner:I am very...

03:28:01Mike:No, no, see, you're not stupid.

03:28:02Mike:You were doing exactly what I wanted you to do.

03:28:06Mike:when when i joined this call with josh and he's like he's a weasel i said it makes sense and josh is like it does wait why does it make sense that he's a weasel i was like i got you to be to be racist towards weasels you fell into stereotypes immediately that they're bad people so when you said he's a weasel tanner's like what did he do

03:28:31Jorge:Thank you.

03:28:32Josh:Or Craig.

03:28:33Tanner:I hate that that just happened.

03:28:36Tanner:That sucks for me.

03:28:37Josh:Which is the worst.

03:28:37Mike:Now you guys got to be careful of everything you say because you don't know if it was some weird conversation I had with Josh where you're going to agree with me and you're not going to know it.

03:28:47Mike:You're just like, yeah, I just really like carrots on salad and Josh goes like, fuck.

03:28:51Mike:And I'm like, I told you Josh.

03:28:53Mike:And he's like, no.

03:28:55Mike:He got another one.

03:28:57Tanner:I mean if you have like shredded carrots.

03:29:02Noah:Oh, cat.

03:29:04Tanner:What a good little guy.

03:29:05Josh:He's not a little guy so much anymore.

03:29:05Tanner:Yeah.

03:29:09Josh:He's fully cat-sized.

03:29:11Josh:Wear him like a scarf.

03:29:11Jorge:Yes, well I will let you guys go Oh, yeah

03:29:13Noah:Good cat.

03:29:14Tanner:Well, he's still smaller than us.

03:29:26Tanner:Yeah, enjoy the last hour of your birthday.

03:29:28Tanner:Very exciting.

03:29:29Josh:Yeah.

03:29:31Josh:Once it's over, you revert it.

03:29:33Josh:That's how that works.

03:29:35Noah:We'll be right back.

03:29:36Josh:How does week work for everybody?

03:29:36Mike:And then over until it's over.

03:29:38Mike:President's Day.

03:29:42Jorge:It's a holiday.

03:29:44Josh:What holiday?

03:29:46Tanner:Is it President's Day?

03:29:48Jorge:Yeah.

03:29:48Josh:Oh, the day of the presidents.

03:29:51Tanner:Yeah.

03:29:51Josh:Is that bad?

03:29:53Josh:Should we reschedule?

03:29:55Tanner:I don't think it's a problem for me, but Jorge, if it's problematic for you, we could go for a different day.

03:30:02Josh:Yeah, we can definitely move it.

03:30:04Jorge:See you next Tuesday.

03:30:06Josh:How about you let us know what days work and then we can reschedule if you're not positive about Tuesday.

03:30:07Mike:Very well.

03:30:12Jorge:I could do Tuesday.

03:30:14Josh:Okay, does Tuesday work for everybody?

03:30:16Tanner:I think so.

03:30:17Josh:Okay, so we will do Tuesday next week then.

03:30:18Jorge:Cool.

03:30:21Noah:It did feel a little bit like that every time.

03:30:21Jorge:Cool, cool, cool.

03:30:22Tanner:Yeah.

03:30:22Tanner:Very well.

03:30:24Jorge:Whatever.

03:30:27Jorge:I just want to say one thing.

03:30:29Jorge:I knew I was going to give the third eye to Henrik.

03:30:32Jorge:I just wanted to stress everyone out.

03:30:34Jorge:Because in the very beginning, I feel like before when I asked, Josh was like, is Lev going to kill this man?

03:30:41Jorge:All right.

03:30:43Mike:It did.

03:30:44Mike:Yeah.

03:30:44Josh:Yeah.

03:30:45Mike:And thankfully, it wasn't like 30.

03:30:47Mike:Thankfully, Josh gave everyone.

03:30:49Mike:It would just happen to be everyone that you looked at.

03:30:52Tanner:Right.

03:30:52Mike:You're like, you cannot one-hit this person.

03:30:54Mike:And we're like, OK, Josh, please, I really wish you didn't speak in absolutes about our capabilities, because now we're incentivized to try to one-hit someone on this planet.

03:30:56Josh:Everybody on this planet, you cannot one-hit unless they're a literal baby, and even then, that's kinda, like, iffy.

03:31:03Josh:So...

03:31:12Noah:Specifically a baby.

03:31:15Tanner:All right.

03:31:17Tanner:Craig the Weasel is listening, so we should probably call it.

03:31:20Josh:That's true.

03:31:21Mike:I don't call him that.

03:31:21Josh:For legal reasons, this was all in Minecraft.

03:31:23Noah:Oh.

03:31:24Jorge:Yeah.

03:31:26Jorge:Yeah.

03:31:26Jorge:Well, adios.

03:31:29Josh:Adios.

03:31:29Tanner:Good night.
