In our last episode, the party continued following their mummified hand friend Spike Jones through the dangers of the forest. Most common of these dangers are twig blights, creepy little minions made out of bits of wood. They also faced a potential friend if it weren't for that garat they were carrying. Our adventurers today are David who plays Ichabod the wizard, he plays the Digitatian to clean up urine, he plays Waylon the Barbarian, he plays David Druid, and our DM Hazel.
It's not as under mandibles, this is not for your meet-kee, he's not soft and squishy like Craig. Welcome fellow travelers to Legends of Channel. But then shall we carry on? Onward.
So after slaying the misele, you continue onward. It is getting dark and starting to get dark when the misele arrives the second time. So it is about time to make a camp somewhere. We'll do that.
Same watches. Same watches and I will do the ritual alarm spell again. And we've got trees in our area, we're in a forest. Yeah, you're in.
Okay, then I am going to make like a web in my spider form and just sort of roost in it. Anything that comes across my web, I think it's such a zipline. Okay. Yeah.
Make a perception check. 14. Your watch is fairly innovative. Okay.
How long is a watch? There are three of you, you need to sleep eight hours total. Okay, it doesn't matter. I'll turn back into myself and wake up whoever is next.
Okay, now we need to go on. Cut a lot with spike. Alright, perception using a lantern? Yeah, 11.
You know, it all seems good to you. Looking around, do you not see anything going on? Until that alarm goes off in your head. And what you see when the alarm goes off are a bunch more blights.
A little faster. I feel like the first night was a good trial run though. Now I know just like a plane blade. Attack the little ones.
So the other plant looking thing is another vine. Oh boy. Oh God. We're fine.
Come on, would your web stay up? I'm not a spider anymore. So it tells the period is going to go. Four hit points, four hit points, four hit points, they're fine.
So what we need is for the ball close in and then by the way, we're going to go. And the web disappears after you stop being a spider? Well, I can't use it. I'm not really sure.
I feel like all of my spideriness goes away, which would include the web. I would think that it was today. Okay. Well, whatever you want, it's not going to stop them.
It was just so that I would know where anything is. Okay. It's not like a web spell. No, it's not like a web spell and I don't have a web attack because I'm like a ground spider basically.
I'm going to say it would be like giant spider webs. That's going to matter too much because that's just like a DC 10. Well, I think it just turns into difficult terrain or something, doesn't it? It's all right.
It's on ground. Yeah, we'll just ignore the spider webs. They come through the spider webs into the campground and act at the moment. Ichabod is the only one awake.
I'm sure that will change quickly. When the alarm goes off, can I immediately call out? Okay. All right.
Initiative for everybody. I'm doing great guys. Or I also have been doing great. Oh, you want to get to go first and just kill all of you at once?
Possibly. And Spike will be able to do something. But Spike, Spike has more hit points than it would be like. Yeah.
I'm going to be hit and then he's to run away if he hits with it. He only has a plus three. Okay. Wait on you said you had a four?
Yep. Hopefully you're at the very bottom. Today. Hopefully for you.
And eight. Spike. It's 19. We'll save us.
We'll save us. We'll get an initiative. I'll save it. I'll save it.
I'll save it. Either he care who goes first? No. My index is flat.
If that needs anything. That's the plus five initiative. Two of those are very good options. Let's go.
Okay. Thank you. Everybody else is in the tent. Yeah.
I guess. There are four creatures before 3d10 yes can you borrow a lady 10 24 30 39 Because a tiny bomb when he wants to be How many twink lights do I have up there? 6 I think four dice and two veggie pygmies My blood still up you did more than 30 for ever personally yeah So that fine light is not still up nice fine by light has been blighted by your good friend spike Nice, but it's nice needle light which is up first is going to shoot a needle like a That hits 18 plus something for six points of damage The second needle plate is also going to try to shoot a needle at you. There's a six head And now the fine light is going to cast in dangling plants so These grasping vines appear 15 foot radius from the vine blade it probably is forward actually so 15 from there and all these grasping vines come up and Two people are still in the tent don't need to make it until they step out into it I guess because it's underneath the tent Think about it make a DC 12 strength check not now 20 I've seen this trick before It's all the rage fully once So you are not restrained which is nice and that brings us to your turn.
Take a bite All right, I'm thinking about that, but I think I'm gonna take another step first I'm gonna cast mirror image. Mm-hmm. That's my action and that's it for now. All right Hey, this is your turn.
You are inside a tent. I will so I have a tent. Okay I rolled a semi And I will with my bonus action Some in the spirit totem of the hawk we'll start flying around the camp and with that I can grant advantage on an ally's attack with a reaction mmm, and We all have advantage on perception checks if that comes up And with my action action, I will take out my seven-week spear and stab One of the little blights. I don't remember are they twig like yeah, I'll stab the twig.
Okay, 13 13 just hits Seven damage that's enough. I would like for it to just sort of push him up into the distance as he dies That is me all right, it is all the twig lights turn I think maybe you're three months of DMing away from realizing how to make a combat easier for yourself Okay, so day and a good body of our the available targets I guess they could try to attack through the tent. I can't really see much in there those three that are on that side will move up toward a God that one will stay on the hand That one's good the other thing going oh no spike, so let's do the attack on spike first Okay, so this is a bajillion on Ichabod and one decided to stick with spike ones on you as well Sure, that is a natural 20. Okay, so it takes his claws and Slashes them at the tiny hand at its feet There's chance on and come on out of this is one hit point 12.
No, he falls much less Just a modified hands on the ground The next one we will do is we will attack day Okay, that is more than 17. Okay. Yeah, my arm class is 14. That is six points of damage next we will attack Ichabod three times jeez that is 19 shield Which raises my AC to 20.
Okay. No, it's just for one right actually it lasts till the start of my next turn. Oh 15 so no and a natural 20 Okay I normally I could redirect that attack to one of the mirror images, but I didn't make the roll high enough, so it's me eight points of damage And that brings us to Wayland. All right.
He's finally gonna crawl out of the tent DC 12 strength Well, we'll bonus action rage before we do that. Okay, please. Sure. That could be advantage.
What'd you eat it? Yeah That works six 20 All right, so we're roughly do I come out Hmm, I don't like this. I'm going to as an action some in my special wings and sorry guys But creatures within 10 feet have to make a charisma saving. Is it creatures or like I think it says creatures Yeah, it includes things you guys say.
Can we like work on getting over that? Yeah, that's the thing that you guys want to work on I do So you see 11 croissants How many of what do I need? Creatures within 10 feet, so I all of them unless maybe not this one for twig lights and a fine light. Yeah four minus four That was a good choice What's the DC 11 11 minus four eight minus four one minus four And the fine boy also a minus four.
Okay, they're not very charming. I know 16 minus four so the fine And I failed it I'm sorry. So now they're afraid of me. I don't think I have to use this reaction or anything to move away But they can't move closer and have disadvantage.
I believe well in that line of sight with me Cool. You have it on your board if you're suspicious of that description That's just not the memory. I think that's everything with fear Disadvantage on ability checks and attack rolls while the source of its fear is within line of sight There we go Can't really move closer to the source of its fear and there's some special ones that makes them run away, but um, this is not So they're scared of you Good to know so that was way them that brings us to spike. It's always gone.
He's gone No, he should be fine. I made them all at dawn. Yeah, it's not 24 hours. It's dawn.
That's good needle blight Shoots a needle out at wailing. Okay, and this is all right the other needle blight. No shoot that day 17 hits and that is Seven damage okay, and then it's the vine blights turn the vine blight who is not scared of failing is going to Reach out a couple of bundles of vines 19 to hit oh now. Yeah, that is you are grappled on Unfortunately and you take nine points of bludgeoning damage grappled and restraint.
Oh shit, and that brings us to a couple Hmm. I'm going to use Misty Sev teleport to hear whoops. You killed him great. No, it's gonna happen Then I'm gonna cast scorching ray and put all three into the vine blight 1824 21 24 damage fire These are not vulnerable to fire It looks very rough Last hit scorching black spots on it and burning a lot of the vines It actually has holes in its torso where the vines have hit in the fire spread before it's gone out But it is still standing brings us today Okay, I'm gonna step up next to wailing sort of dancing around the twig blade that hit me last time and in this direction I'm gonna cast a thunder wave.
Okay, so they need I need Constitution saves okay. That's two twigs and a bang. Yep. Do the fine first.
I would not have to underweight you It does make my job easier. I was gonna try and angle it so that you weren't there What's the DC again 14? Okay, that's a 16 for the bag. Okay, it's 20 and the second twig is 16 They all make it okay.
They're still taking good roll Six damage, okay So all the little guys still die Is the mind boy That one too No, can you do off this corner so one because it's 15 foot Q could I have done if I could have done it that way I would have yeah Okay, so I'll roll for that one. So yeah, um nothing matters it fails. Okay That was good. So that one dies like alarmingly They do not like the sound of that So that was days turn and now we are to a twig to the twig blights.
I wish there's a big blade left to like yeah The one right next to wailing is frightened of wailing right? Yep. So it is going to dash away from you actually. Oh sweet I'll take the tech opportunity and because I request this is also There 16 yeah, that's it.
Okay. I thought five like it doesn't live it doesn't live it was scared to death So the other twig blight is going to move up today really yeah, okay It's going to stay near the needle blight over there and stay away from the big one It is going to attack you. I guess that he was too busy Like celebrating his victory over spiked to realize that I just blew away like a million of his friends Is there something to hit? Alright, so okay missus and there are no more fine blights.
So it is a capacitor No, I'm going to be playing so it's my turn. I messed up somewhere. Yeah, you did. Okay.
Wait, wait. Wait. Wait. Okay.
Yeah, you can handle that twig blade So I'm gonna go any closer to me Attack this completely freaked out Did you fail your fears? Okay, it's way less. It's fine I like the look in his eye for the giant's ethereal scalpel wings. I don't like the look in his wings 19 to hit that will hit okay.
All right, so that's 7 plus 4 is 11. So 24 damage. Oh, that'll do it. Yeah Your side slides right through a no problem with a weird black energy and divine radiant light coming out That brings us around to the last needle light Which is going to fire and needle at That's a tough choice.
Oh, all right then. I'm gonna fire one a day making faces at it's going 18 that is nine piercing damage. Okay, that hurts. It's a weird plant like Neil just Shoves right into your gut.
Oh, that's a big one. So I'm going to I'm gonna move away from And Yeah, I'll hit the last needle like with the scorching right little test 13 13 hits all right So the 23 also hits and the 17 also hits all it's gonna be a close lane 9 10 Yeah, 19 that will do it needle-white has been killed all that remains is one quick light I Shouldn't wait it. I'm gonna catch a final savagery. All right nine nine misses I've never bitten anything in this form before so that's fair and also like I was doomed from the start It's like a day can handle that guy It's going to look it all around and it is going to attack you.
Oh, that's not trying to run away. I would run For an eight it kind of takes a slash at you and then it runs its 20 feet You make your reaction 19 19 That is five damage you kill it and it tends to run away No big deal, okay, that was fun I'm going to cast a second level cure wounds on Iqobod in the first level one on myself So you get 14. How many wounds I had Anything else you guys want to work on tonight? No, this feels like a good time finish out our long rest and pick up next time Okay, the rest of the watches are uneventful.
It's great So during your rest of weightling can you make me a wisdom saving throw? 17 at first you see nothing Everything is dark and then you see this faint red light glowing at the darkness and It starts to glow brighter and it appears to be coming closer to you. It's a little blurry And you can see that it's being diffused by a thick fog that is surrounding you Guys start poking the other ones away. I was just doing a watch.
You don't see the other two. Oh As the light moves closer, you can see the outline of figure that seems to be wearing this light like around his neck They're broader shoulder and tall, but you're having trouble making up details through the fog Okay, but I could have hello They also raise their hand, but you do not hear them saying anything and they move closer and At first as they move closer You can see is this bright light shining right in your eyes But then your vision clears and you can see the person facing you and it is you You see that the bright light is coming from the amulet around his neck, okay? So this is my amulet of verification glowing to or you look down its it's not glowing, okay Does it do anything else? But you feel your eyes being drawn toward his amulet and you focus in on it and then you feel this weird sensation like you're being twisted and sucked into the amulet Oh, no, and you see the gym flare with light and then it just shatters and you feel yourself compress Uncomfortable and then it feels like you're being pushed outward and you once again see yourself standing there except you're different The angle is still there around the other you's neck, but it's black and And their skin is paler.
It's more sickly looking You almost look dead like a walking corpse and then they turn as if they're being drawn by something and you feel it too You feel something tugging at you now you resist it, but the other weightland doesn't He says one word may as he walks off into the darkness and then you wake up. Oh lovely Well, that was weird May was the witch the witch that made the chickens, right? Hmm Did we ask what favor she got from the axe? I don't remember that.
I think you did. Hmm. Well shit. Oh We can talk to them, right?
If that's something we forgot Okay, well, I went up and shared the dream with that what that you don't have to ask where breaking camp and she shared the dream like a Something maybe tried to possess me in a dream and then I thought told towards something but The other evil me Actually followed it and said mave which is why I asked about her Yeah, we might want to talk to the fans Ask what you get about what they gave her. Okay. I think If a bod is the one with the nail I'm not sure. I don't did you give a slip paper for it?
No, no, I'm not sure I think it really matters. Yeah, so that can be passed to wailing if it is not already had it and oh We're not sure Okay, I'll talk to them Okay, how does this work? Do I just talk into it? I don't think that we got directions I Hello, okay, okay, hi it's wailing Yes, you're still alive.
That's amazing. How how are you fairing? Well, we've made progress We've been attacked by blades every so often but there's been no real trouble But we I wouldn't I have a question you were visited by a witch or Something yeah, which named mave, right? Yes Can I ask what you gave her or what she requested?
She was a very interesting one She brought us the beast. I believe you saw it. Yep, the chicken face. They're in human face chicken thing.
Yeah, yes Very fine. Steed it is And what she wanted was to study with us so she stayed with us for a time learning about Our hadly ways and I want to be a sacrifice by she left Hadly ways can we all hear or is it like? She can she can wait like an only is the only one here her and she is the she can only hear wait Let's you not hear you guys. Oh, I or anything else is going on Do you know what other goals she might have had I know that she was?
interested in increasing her lifespan Mmm, mostly I think she sought power and the knowledge she enjoyed doing experiments on creatures Okay, is this information relevant to you somehow? Well, I just woke up from a really weird nightmare and I felt like something tried to possess me and they said her name interesting We can hear wailing right? Yes. You're telling them about your dreams Hey, they gave knowledge freely, okay I mean should I know if I know They seem to have a vested interest in a succeeding.
So yeah, I'll take it for now in for a pepper So yeah, I hope it's not actually relevant and I'm just having weird dreams, but weird dreams seem to be a thing for me Okay, thank you for sharing If you have anything else that'd be relevant please let us know I love a little That's that's everything is there anything else anything you need it now keep us updated and get to the center of the forest Yeah, we're gone ask if the else name is Gathias Oh, yeah, actually one more question.

Well, thank you for that warning Because yeah, we heard the name for blights that were attacking us Like you know little twig blights and blind blights and whatnot So yeah, no, we did not look for it. All right. Yeah.

Well the thing you think you've seen from Maeve are the beast The spider axe oh those are from her and the jugglers It's interesting that we saw the jugglers first because those are probably the weirdest interesting piece of magic We saw a spider as first didn't it?
The beast is just yeah a horrible thing, but the jugglers are like weird dudes with lots of heads They have a head that's right for it.
