S136 Recap: The Crow's Lie | Ep.79: Oh Joy! They Unionized!

General Summary

Nightmares!!! Just for Nova & Romad tho cuz I was kind enough to give everyone a saving throw instead of remembering how the fir darrig sow fear action works lmao > Nova manages but Romad has a rough go of it, waking up exhausted > #Oof #That'sRoughBuddy > Luckily he can cast greater restoration with Storge so we gucci but also we're getting ahead of ourselves because Kirin was havin a funky lil #Dreamstride called “The Crow's Lie” > #CitingDrugDreamsInHerThesis (ngl Sallessian academia prolly already has standard formats for citing prophetic dreams lmao) > What was in that dream? Idk some cunt sat in a room and repeated the same shit every day and then the fates fucked up and now that cunt can't die properly > #Woopsies > ON THE ROAD AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously it's been a hot minute lmao > #NotAsLongAsLastYearTho > anyways Kirin Kirins with a Nat20 perception (#CritCount1) allowing her to notice the impending psionic avalanche! > Unfortunately didn't save her from her well intentioned hubris of trying to help allies > #GetGot > okay SO! Diva & the rangers are frightened while everybody else but Nova, Romad, Corayas and Irati somehow?? are stunned > Despite this Knick-Knack still rolls a nat20 initiative because of how lucky works lmao (Kirin does too btw) > #CritCount3 #PointlessTravelCombat?InThisCampaign??? #It'sHappening¯\_(ツ)_/¯ > Kirin is floating. > #SurgeForTheSurgeGods #DivaTakesTheTantrumActionForHerTurn > Anyways Nova Flame Blades it up while Romad casts calm emotions to suppress the fear effect of the psionic avalanche before raging into the fray to draw fire > #CombatStrats!!! #You'reLearningStratsY'all!!!! #FuckYeah!!! > Oh yeah btw, the enemy is a bunch of fir darrigs lmao > #ForgotToMentionThatBit > There's a few warlock bitches with bone rods but most of them are parts of these swarms of endlessly laughing fir darrigs > Like specifically that kind of laughter where you're trying to stop but everyone else is laughing too so you just keep restarting but also it's like ugly laughing. Like full gutteral cackling that almost sounds like you're choking on gravel. That Laughter. > Anywahahas, those swarms are just all up over Romad & Kirin and are tryin for Nova too but they're just chucking the rat fucks off em left n right. At some point in this giant bruhaha a fir darrig rolls a nat20 on something… What? Not a fucking clue and honestly it doesn't really make a difference whatever it was lmao > #CritCount4 > Gwyf helps Isati #EldritchBlast one of the Firlocks before trying to hide in the loudest way possible > #BadCrit #CritCount5 > Corayas takes this opportunity to cast heroism on the vanguard and also #SurgeForTheSurgeGods > #IgnitionHands?WhatIsThis?AU!Corayas?? > Serenas then obliterates the swarm that was attacking Nova with a #BlessingOfTheWarGod and finishes off the warlock Isati was blasting. This Totally Happened At This Point In The Session. > #I'dNeverForgetSerenas'Turn #WeirdSoup #CritCount6 #GoodCrits5 #BadCrits1 #FinalCritCount > At this point the remaining cackle & warlocks take their turns to little effect and we call it a wrap for the night! > What were Cavidian & Red-Oak doing during this fight? Uhhhhhhh.... > OH SHIT IS THAT GAELEE LAST NAME!?‽ /absconds into the fae crossing while you're distracted/ S136 Crit Count: Kirin Nat20 Perception, Kirin & Knick-Knack Nat20 Initiative, Fir Darrig Nat20 Somthin, Gwyf Nat1 stealth, Serenas Nat20 Attack
