White Bull Season 1 Episode 03 – transcript

0:09
welcome back to another episode of the chaosium house runequest campaign i’m jeff richard and i’ll be your game
0:16
master tonight uh once again i’d like to thank my players claudia loroff
0:21
linda borgen richard august philip glass and of course mr neil why don’t you all
0:28
introduce yourself and your characters sure i’ll go first my name’s neil
0:34
robinson and i am playing nisk and i’ve decided he’s missing unlucky not because he’s unlucky
0:40
but he seems to get a lot of people who fumble around him so he’s pretty happy with that okay
0:47
my name is philip i play Kulbrast the simmering a wolf pirate and a crewmate of
0:54
nist and i am very unlucky when he’s around so i’ve
1:00
already lost one arm let’s see how that goes on and and by the way Kulbrast i i think
1:07
you’re increasingly not being called the simmering i think you’ll be called cobrast one arm probably
1:15
as time goes by um that might be the case
1:24
i’m richard august i am playing Garan Grimseeing a highly honorable
1:31
though increasingly less honorable Humakti uh who is not as good in combat as he
1:38
thinks he is [Laughter]1:43
okay my name is claudia i’m playing gina ghost’s friend she is an another cultist but with a
1:49
very strong connection to Ty Kora Tek and she actually dances with ghosts
1:57
my name is linda i’m playing Enkala who is a Stormbull warrior wannabe shaman sometime in the
2:03
future awesome hey rich why don’t you give us a recap of what’s gone on the last
2:10
episode okay so uh we as a group decided we would be uh
2:17
involved in the sacking of uh new pavis but thought we’d get a drop on the other
2:24
um the other people waiting to loot the city by sneaking around the side and
2:29
going in via the river gate we clambered over the wall uh fought off
2:35
the few um soldiers we encountered and then made our way to the house of a
2:42
very wealthy merchant who we uh basically
2:48
blackmailed with his life and now own all of his assets uh
2:55
we are extremely rich and have a beautiful mansion around us which we have kept safe from the sacking uh and we’ve
3:02
been there ever since okay well thanks let’s uh let’s just
3:09
dive right in uh i believe that richard’s summary of this was entirely
3:16
accurate as of the very second we ended the last session um
3:22
i i’m just going to show off for for uh pretty picture purposes uh
3:28
an idea of what you are this is
3:34
something sort of like malavar’s uh villa that you guys took in new pavis
3:40
malavar had one of the largest homes on rich hill it’s about a 25
3:47
by 25 meters on uh square uh two stories tall opulently
3:56
opulently decorated etc and i believe i gave you guys on the um
4:04
uh previously i gave you guys a summary of what sort of stuff he had
4:11
uh when you guys ransacked and looted his home so that was in the white bull
4:19
slack channel i’m just going to repeat it again you guys managed to find i mean a lot of the stuff
4:27
that possibly an uh a merchant might find interesting you guys probably threw down or destroyed or whatnot
4:34
because you guys are pirates you’re not traitors or
4:40
or does anybody belong to esseries does anybody even offer the occasional
4:47
sacrifice to esseries as a lay member
4:52
okay so you guys found the cool stuff and that was a storage chest with two
4:59
big money bags each holding about a thousand silver lunars and a smaller money bag
5:06
with 150 wheels within and let me just give you an idea about what these things look like
5:13
so here see if i can get this up is a silver lunar it’s about the size of
5:20
one and this is what the lunar army pays all
5:26
of its soldiers in and so as a result it is pretty much well the most commonly used
5:31
uh silver currency what on earth was i talking about um i think you gave us an extra five
5:37
thousand lunars oh yes you’re stuck and 86 on every skill oh yes that’s
5:45
right no not that wasn’t it so i gave you guys a uh there you guys found a storage chest with two
5:50
money bags holding a thousand silver lunars so these and a hundred and fifty wheels
6:00
wow a golden wheel if you remember malavar tried to uh bribe you all
6:07
uh with the 150 wheels for the hundred he was a cheap guy yeah there’s also a small j you also
6:16
found a small gem pouch with some uncut diamonds uh possibly more interesting for some of
6:22
the characters was a score 20 amphora filled with wine from the holy country
6:29
and an amphora holds 40 liters of liquid so that’s
6:34
800 liters of wine wow
6:42
[Laughter] no need to go out marauding anymore in
6:49
the future you also found a small crate filled with silk
6:54
stacks of scrolls written in new polarian a fully stocked food logger and a
7:01
wardrobe of noble clothes and a small box filled with jewelry and uh with jewelry of gold and silver
7:08
now of course there’s lots of other things that were here but i can’t imagine you guys can give a
7:15
damn about most of this
7:22
stuff that would be in a um a wealthy villa
7:35
so well uh sorry what house shrines out there
7:40
oh yeah oh yeah there’s a shrine there also within the villa there is a shrine
7:47
to the deities of the house which would be the seven mothers so there’s a
7:55
there is a uh uh a shrine
8:03
into a with a variety of lunar d cities there
8:10
i’m sure that makes you guys feel great
8:15
no how long do they last before and carla smashes them
8:20
not wrong they will be desecrated so what do you do today what are you
8:26
going to do in cola i’m not sure i should say but
8:31
the guys in my plan would probably piss on them that’s a bit difficult but i will
8:37
certainly smash them okay using an axe no not my axe
8:42
that it’s a two-handed axe i’ll i’ll find something i’ll smash one figurine with the other one
8:48
pretty much um as for how to
8:53
desecrate that i’d have to think to do it properly that it really needs
8:58
some divination let me think on that and move on
9:06
i think i’m sorry
9:15
well let me give you the other thing going on while you guys are securing the
9:20
place and um desecrating shrines and whatnot
9:26
am i the only one that’s having difficulty for you guys connecting to
9:32
uh it’s all fine apart far from you really yes pretty much yeah
9:38
okay well you see your your gm is in multiple points in time
9:45
i think i’m about a second ahead of where i actually am
9:51
i left your network so it should be better okay um
9:58
elsewhere in the city bands of praxia nomad uh barbarians are rushing through the
10:06
streets of the city there is uh the smell of fire never a good thing
10:14
in an ancient in in any city particularly uh a city
10:19
like a glorified uh city of the bronze age and you know screaming stuff being
10:27
looted stuff being smashed and of course there are a number of proxy and cons
10:35
that have an interest in this area so i’m going to first show up the map
10:41
here because this may be of importance to you all
10:51
see share screen okay so you guys see
10:57
where the mouse cursor is that is the villa that you’ve taken there are there are proxy and cons
11:05
coming up from soldier street there is another uh probably that’s a bison there’s a bison
11:12
con and a whole bunch of bison coming in there there are llamas coming up fame street from
11:19
from dwarf street sable cons there are you know this is where
11:26
everybody who is an important praxian has come to loot and there’s already a degree of
11:33
irritation that you all are outside one of the biggest villas on rich hill
11:44
so the first question i have is is okay there’s there’s uh
11:50
several proxy and cons here on on rich hill are you guys going to take steps to secure your villa
11:57
yes tar villa
12:02
okay early and squarely how do you propose to do this uh
12:09
board up the windows and stuff like they’d normally put in a defense and make sure that on kala and i are ready
12:15
because we both could speak praxio and well and say you know let them know that we’ve taken this in the
12:20
name of our grass okay well the first khan who
12:27
who has an interest in here is the bison khan narmed whirlwish bane
12:35
and narmed is uh he’s a wahawa khan descended from waha he is the leader of
12:43
thousands of bison writers he’s one of their their their paramount cons and uh
12:51
uh actually he is the paramount khan of the bison nation
12:57
and he’s a rune lord rune lord of wahawa just when i give the
13:03
context here he’s got his shamans around him uh there are several
13:09
storm cons of the storm bowl linda that have sworn loyalty to him
13:15
and his reaction to you all is to say it
13:22
is to say in praxion ah thank you you have you have uh
13:29
have uh secured this this this fine treasure for me
13:37
good i don’t think so you’re welcome to come and share and enjoy some of them the wine at a time
13:44
it’d be good to have such great storm cons there however it would be the least of um warriors that would say that
13:51
they’re willing to take you know to claim risk to something that they couldn’t take they didn’t take themselves from the lunars
14:01
um narmed is not amused by this
14:06
and what was that philip what is he saying nix something about
14:12
the house yeah he thinks he says thank you for giving him the house and protect taking it from him and i said no
14:18
i offered him some wine yeah it’s fair enough i mean he’s trying to be clever or what
14:25
you suggested telling you might tell him that his ancestors temple is on the other
14:31
side of the city
14:37
narmed glares at you Garan narmed is tall and gaunt and he’s one of
14:44
these guys that brooks absolutely no from uh his inferiors he is uh
14:52
he is a a con from a long lineage of cons he’s being played by the
15:00
way in this movie by alec guinness actually not by alec guinness
15:05
who plays the um in uh
15:10
with peter o’toole alec guinness um uh lawrence of olivier who plays uh the
15:16
river to his people uh oh
15:22
omar no not omar sharif uh the the the one who plays the really
15:28
war-like khan um not jason robards but but who else familiar with uh uh lawrence of
15:35
olivier or lawrence of arabia laura
15:45
well um he is he is a tall elderly man who has been fighting wars
15:52
against the lunar empire since you know pretty much well before you guys were born
15:58
and darmed narmed um is willing to
16:08
uh let me change this let me get out of sharing
16:15
there is this done with sharing yep narmed is is willing to
16:22
assume that you spoke wrongly no and
16:29
and um he is going to try to just move his way in with his retainers of
16:37
storm bowl cultists and shamans stop oh gina stops stop
16:44
i put on my horn of intimidation
16:50
okay why don’t you try to make an intimidate skill i will intimidate plus 20
17:00
i have oh when did we actually roll our checks
17:05
uh after all of this [Music]17:11
okay intimidation is not my highest skill but i have to check on it already
17:16
and i no no no i hate to say it the grave dancer
17:22
does not intimidate the ancient wahawa khan
17:28
i remind him that his has he actually given his anchors and justices enough
17:35
food has he prayed to them he is a river to his ancestors um
17:43
the guy jeff yes
17:50
it’s anthony quinn anthony quid is playing this con does this look like the sort of guy who’s easily intimidated
17:57
gina nope no i come with logic i come with logic no i tell him he will be dead soon
18:06
i mean at his age he will be dead falling in battle or dying of a heart
18:11
attack so however he should be nice to to the guards and the ghosts and
18:16
so on and let us go and because i have a good connection that
18:21
to make his way smooth he says that he is the khan
18:28
of the bison nation the mightiest nation of prax and the bison nation
18:35
shall have this um this is the finest home on rich hill and the finest home should
18:42
go to the grandest nation of prax so you’re going to take it from from someone who reports to our graph
18:49
that is what you were telling me you are telling me that you are going to take it from someone who has traveled through the maelstrom
18:56
who is ridden on the cradle and take all those things because you think this is yours
19:03
it is to me that’s what i learned as i traveled because i lived in prax as i lived in the wolf pirates that you get what you take in battle in
19:10
your plunder and you get to keep lit and people respect that do you want to be known as and these are
19:15
these are do you want to be known as the khan who has to beg and steal the khan who is weak who has to take it from his
19:21
partners because this khan cannot fight lunars do you want that on your children’s grave do you want to have your testicles
19:28
shrink because you are not man enough to have done it yourself i am so disappointed
19:33
i cannot understand i myself and you know me and you know i ride a bison
19:39
i’m embarrassed to call advice if you feel to take it this way from your allies you should be young of yourself this
19:45
sounds like an orate yep okay that’s just 21.
19:53
and 21’s a special wow it is um it
20:00
is an in uh an impressive speech but narmed
20:06
aka anthony quinn he he looks at his his shamans
20:14
uh and and uh his storm bowls and he says that that yes he rides with the white
20:22
bull but he is not the s
20:28
servant or slave of the white ball says he is not a lackey um he is
20:34
the great noble uh ruler of of of the bison nation and he
20:41
serves no man uh he’s and says so
20:48
but you’ve got a success on your orate special so it’s special you got a special one
20:54
you’re all right and so like uh like any good khan he
21:00
has a face saving uh uh back down here a de-escalation
21:07
and uh he says go uh foot servant of the white bull
21:16
um go and take your uh uh uh take your house
21:23
uh take your house here uh
21:28
i i no need granted to you
21:35
and i will take i said it is an honor to be taking it from the warrior of the bison writers i said thank you you must um you must
21:41
drink the one i should ask we if we’ve got an offer to present to memphis for some celebration of his great victories
21:50
he expects that um you should give him
21:56
uh a share of of the wealth in the house that he
22:03
has given to you you can have the wine not all the ones
22:08
that the hell is the half of
22:14
and i have a question should we let him know that actually a high llama played a crucial role well
22:21
that’s the other bit is is that there is the uh the great khan of the high lama tribe
22:29
yaz kurtio uh or yazurkyo uh yazurkyo blue lama who
22:37
is the um uh ruler of the blue lama nation and of the
22:44
blue or sorry of the high lama nation and the leader of the blue lama klein i
22:49
believe he’s your chief isn’t he uh is outraged that narmed is claiming this
22:56
is his and and this by the way is yes yes gina i have an
23:02
idea i want to talk to my companions without the can or any other khan round
23:09
well they’re they’re yelling through the door i assume yes yes yes we lock the door and they can yell and we have a meeting
23:16
so why because we have now the halama khan guy coming over the bison rider the
23:23
rhino will come the sables impala whatever because it’s the coolest house
23:28
how about dedicating this house to the five tribes and we are actually the um
23:37
we keep it for the five tribes and all the five tribes can come in and
23:42
donate things for big fise we can actually give them rooms for their big fees
23:49
and whatever i like that yeah but i have a concern this was taken
23:56
in the name of our graph and you didn’t mention and i would be remiss if i did not say
24:01
that it is that i think that this could be something of the white bull that invites the unified helps
24:07
supports all the tribes the facts i just want to change the wording on that we could just we could just make the
24:12
white bull in out of it oh you have got it the house of the white bull that’s
24:19
actually way better than the five tribes yeah but then avarice will eat everything and uh
24:25
somehow i am completely okay with that but but somehow i missed the part that
24:32
he took the house for the right bullet i thought we took it for us i do all things to pay my debts to the
24:38
whiteboard well and let’s let’s also say you know we are we are the stewards of the house for the
24:44
white bull yeah so it is it is that is our responsibility
24:50
the problem is right now that we are not going to say that’s too loud we’re kind of nobodies so we have to do a
24:57
higher purpose thing in order for this to seem my
25:02
my problem is i hate lunars on ninety percent but i have no loyalty none at all to address
25:14
everyone else does everyone else does yeah well not our graph but i have the white bowl so it’s kind of the same thing
25:23
we’ve got red in our ledger where our graph is concerned
25:28
so are we all agreed i like it yeah i’m on board okay loyalty white bull
25:35
i make my little taikora tech shrine okay so what do you explain to the
25:41
various cons fights going on already uh one of the
25:46
high llama riders
25:52
is is threatening to have a duel with one of the uh bison writers hands up who’s aprexion who has lived
25:58
amongst the praxions okay you know this is very very normal
26:04
when the praxian tribes uh are with each other if they don’t have an external foe
26:10
to rally uh together against the one of the first things the praxian
26:15
tribes do is rip into each other they hate each other i mean you’re a high lama
26:22
writer the high lamas hate the bison they hate the sables they hate the impalas and they hate the morokanth the only thing they hate more than each other is anybody else
26:35
uh but but the white bull thing is is the only thing that actually um that’s the only figure that all of
26:44
yes and dolphins
27:01
did that come in i i didn’t hear most of that oh sorry our graph
27:08
and uh and and and forgive us in this time where the entire world is on the
27:14
internet sometimes the internet is a little bit unstable uh argrath and jolton goldentooth
27:22
are about the only figures that all of the tribes agree uh are worthy
27:29
of respect and and following how far is it to get up on the roof
27:38
facing the facing the front if i were to like climb up from the inside out window or something
27:45
uh there is likely actually uh a ladder that just you could take that
27:51
goes straight onto the roof that’s pretty common on these they’re flat-ish roofs yeah
27:56
so it should be fairly easy to get onto the roof okay so i i uh i jump i i climb the
28:04
ladder get up on the roof and i bang my drum on the top there okay it’s not the attractions are
28:11
willing to pay some attention to that um and and they’re yelling
28:16
for you all to unbar the door so that one group yells uh that the high llamas
28:23
may take this another group yells that the bisons may take this we are the stewards of the white people
28:31
i could talk to them with with a bit more of you know charismatic authority
28:39
if that’s neat i do have a 20 charisma so i’m not really off
28:45
okay so i i can augment you with a harmony or death room what do you like
28:50
death room please okay bloodshed um jeff yes sir can i cast
28:58
my charisma my glamour from the necklace on on uh in color or can i give it a
29:05
course okay so that’s what i’ll do um so you’re putting you’re letting her
29:12
have glamour so an eight-point increase to charisma for the purpose i’m shining
29:18
you are shining i’m shining and i’m banging my ancestral gift the drum
29:25
everybody’s paying attention to you everybody even the cons are and as i’m i’m uh banging it
29:31
rhythmically and i understand the sun rises behind me blind i’m claiming i’m claiming this
29:39
house in the name of the white bull all who enter shall be enter in the name of
29:45
the white bull for peace between the class this shall be the place for the peace for the for the parties for everything
29:52
this for the white bull we are it’s stewards bang bang bang okay um
30:01
but not so much peace please uh death is a death kill it japanese
30:08
that just means they’re not going to be like fighting inside fighting is outside of this house yes please yeah
30:13
yes no fighting in-house that’s the thing oh right the sacred place of the white
30:20
bull yeah wow i would like you to roll against your charisma times five yeah um
30:30
140 wow that’s a 14 okay that’s so special it’s probably
30:37
uh right it’s like a 10. well i’ll tell you this much the the the
30:44
cons are willing to agree to this you’ve you’ve said that this is going to be dedicated to the to the uh white bull um
30:54
and they’re not willing to ransack or fight over something that’s been donated to the white bull
31:02
they know that that would be bad form and might get them killed
31:08
so um the way that i will the next step on
31:16
this and i’m gonna kind of accelerate this i mean the cons then claim the next best house and the next best house
31:23
and we will have the problem on on uh rich hill that the con
31:29
of the bison riders resides directly across from the con
31:36
of the high llamas very colorful neighborhood yes they
31:44
set themselves up here i mean they don’t care whose place it is uh they uh
31:53
you know they but for for their status and their pride they
31:59
insist on on maintaining an uh abode in on rich hill the question i
32:07
have for you guys is how are you going to present this to our wrath
32:12
because what you’ve essentially done is i understand it correct me but certainly this would be
32:19
the way the praxions understand it is you’ve basically
32:26
set this up as
32:31
as a place of the white bull like a shrine um
32:38
to the white bull or a meeting place for it which kind of means it’s the white bulls
32:45
and you guys have said you want to be the stewards of this but i think all the praxians would agree
32:51
that that’s kind of our grass call isn’t it um well maybe
32:56
slight misunderstanding it’s it’s the uh we’re just the you know we have the in
33:03
in our house it’s not the whole house but maybe they didn’t quite catch that
33:11
on such a promise we have as we have made before all these great khans would be highly dishonorable it would also
33:18
probably get you all killed but the more important thing is
33:26
the idea was that we put up the sign you know the white bull in and people can come in and have a glass
33:33
of wine and then four of drinks and pay for it and then go again
33:39
let’s talk colbreast the question i have is what do you think your chief is gonna
33:46
say on this how are you gonna get him to say this is um okay loves inns i will just have it
33:53
by giving the cheese gifts like giving the chief our chief gifts
33:59
yeah we have to give a good sentence of donate this some of this stuff to our graph to show that we’ve got it
34:05
and this show is strength and how it was you know in helping um what do you call it keep
34:11
it for him and have a grand opening night with lots of smashable furniture because we all
34:16
know how that will end and i think everyone will have a have a
34:21
whale of a time okay
34:27
gina your grave um your grave services may be necessary on their opening night party i will i
34:35
will start actually with a tune people to be happy to get killed
34:44
excellent excellent so what i want to know is let’s let’s kind of summarize this what gift
34:50
are you giving to our graph um how much of that
34:55
loot that you guys took are you giving to the white um you know to me i think
35:03
to me i think we should probably we’ve got all those those uncut diamonds
35:08
i think those are something that hey we can’t value we don’t know the people who can do that
35:13
i’m from australia can you evaluate this i don’t know i mean it’s really i love
35:20
shiny stuff there’s jewelry too i didn’t say the jewelry i said the uncut diamonds
35:28
how can i evaluate them i’m trying to evaluate skill that’s what happened traits of food is
35:34
something he likes as well keep in mind
35:42
um uh kobrast how do you think wolf pirate chieftains remain popular amongst the
35:49
wolf pirates by giving out gifts yeah or giving out rounds of drink usually
36:05
where do you think he where do you think chiefs get this from other wolf pirates yep
36:12
so what’s the traditional amount you give your chief
36:18
i could roll on on wolves pirates and i could i could roll on my lore right uh
36:24
culture that would be um something like that culture customs high lama tribe work and
36:32
cast i’d have my customs um yeah somewhere yeah
36:39
can i augment my custom with loyalty to the wolf pirates certainly okay
36:47
yep that works so
36:53
one second
37:03
did anybody fail nope nope just made it
37:10
okay so the most common way that this works for the orlanti
37:18
is amongst the orlanthe the leader is responsible
37:26
for dividing the portions of all portions amongst his followers
37:34
of olut
37:48
amongst all the followers so basically the normal way for the wolf pirates is
37:54
individual wolf pirates take a small share of whatever they gather um
38:01
basically whatever they can put and shove in their pockets or or carry in their hand but they give the
38:07
bulk of of what they they take in loot and they give it to their chief then the chief
38:17
it’s is to have that loot out amongst their their uh followers but give a larger amount
38:25
to the people they gave them gave the chief their loot so
38:31
basically the idea is is that you can later loot
38:36
basically the loot that you can’t easily fully um hide and conceal and then that
38:45
you get a bigger share than the other folk because you’re the one who presented that loot to the leader but everybody
38:52
that follows the uh the the chief gets some part of it
38:58
because that way everybody looks to the chief as being the
39:04
uh the main source of money and some of the wolf pirates get very very
39:10
cranky if you don’t give them their cut for example
39:16
would you what do you think herrick’s attitude is on people not giving him his
39:22
share of the war loot cold breasts that’s very benign usually he’s not into money
39:31
oh he gives it all back but
39:40
then technical difficulties seem to be
39:46
resolved uh i think guys now it i’d like to know what it is that you
39:53
all present uh to the white bull and
39:58
to a lesser extent i think the important question is what do you not present to the white ball
40:04
um you know i i’d like to think that what we should do is we should keep some of the money um a small
40:10
percentage of that and a couple wheels each and um say five wheels each um that’s
40:17
25 that’s and then give and a bit of the jewelry each because you know you got to have your you got to wear your necklace that you
40:23
got you know around it’s a very wolf piratey thing and other than that you donate you give basically the house and the
40:29
the food and the wine and the and the whatever stuff of it yeah you’re going to give everything
40:35
else to our grass we always need some food for the ancestors
40:41
please take all the food from the larder you need seriously that’s the disease party you could that that’s not it’s
40:47
very important to make actually a big party for all the people
40:52
which are not lunars who died in the liberation of paris very important
41:00
very important we have to feast for them so we can could combine this with the
41:06
opening of the yes of the inn yes that’s a good idea so we have a
41:11
feast with food and dancing we can’t we’ve got to confirm with our
41:16
graph our idea and present our idea that we think it would be a great inn
41:22
for the whatever given its location and whatever and spin it that it’s his idea otherwise
41:28
this is not going to work does that make sense i don’t know why ours is so important for you guys
41:34
did you see what he did to that one assassin that we were unable to stop
41:39
um apart he’s done a hell of a lot more than that that was our grasp of happy we you know kobras and i have traveled
41:47
with this man i’ve seen a sea serpent i’ve seen a monstrous towel you know a giant monster
41:52
with wings and whatever and our grass says oh yeah you can also like you know go toe-to-toe with herrick i
41:59
i’m sorry you may look kind of scrubby monster but have you seen it have you
42:05
have you seen his hair style and how he should is it smeared that’s not perfect
42:12
no it’s not open it’s not the last style i’m sorry i’m from israelia i mean you’re right
42:19
he’s not he’s not in all the man come on let’s let’s give that he is he’s i mean he could be so much more dashing
42:25
you tell him that i’m sure he’ll be very happy about maybe he needs a style guide
42:31
i looked down at my clothes with your half wool pirate half praxion and a half hodgepodge and oh but i got
42:38
nice armor i go yeah yeah yeah by the way
42:43
could shave better you could put some braids into your hair and put some makeup on yeah what’s that Garan i was going to
42:50
say let’s compose a particularly groveling letter to our graph maybe leaving out
42:56
any comments on his hairstyle so what i would like to do and i would
43:03
love to have some help from gina on this is i would love to write a song and sing
43:09
a presentation that is with with you dancing about um the handing over of this as a great
43:16
thing and we’ll have people stimulate the salt of the tribes and the returning of this as we you know to defeat uh
43:22
in the recapture to make it a big event i i’m very good in singing i am i’m superb
43:28
singing i’m superb and dancing i can do everything i’d like you to dance because i’m not great at dancing but i can sing sing
43:35
well if that makes sense how good are you in singing um 90. me too
43:41
i will use my inspirations you’ve already used a great duet but you can dance you can sing as well
43:47
but i’m gonna if i do the same part of it and you do the dance part of it because you don’t want me doing the dance part of it
43:55
no because your makeup is not right that’s probably the case i by the way i
44:01
forgot one another item that was in this house that
44:07
is so sick oh we lost jeff again again
44:16
there was azia stomachs that’s disappointing
44:32
oh i think i think we take a pouch of that each and then
44:49
i want you to write down how many pouches of hazia you each take i will
44:56
just one i will mix this with very good smelling herbs from
45:02
rory i am taking none having experienced it in our grass tent it is far too close to
45:09
drinking for my liking i donate the pouch i might have taken to our graph
45:15
in expiation of letting him down along with everything else we’re giving him
45:22
how about you there neal uh nisk has five pouches we think that’s enough that’s enough that you would carry
45:27
around and he’s not going to use them all at once but he wants to save those for uh religious ceremonies
45:33
linda if if he’s taking ten i need to take more how much do you smoke at one five
45:42
yeah i’ll take ten how many are left now i mean well it’s uh i mean it’s it’s
45:51
it’s malavar um was clearly one of the key
45:58
figures in the clandestine hazia trade between the river of cradles and so
46:05
basically you took a drug baron’s uh collection of cocaine sitting there in it and each of you guys
46:12
grabbed like a uh uh except for linda
46:18
party of junkies actually it’s a very spiritual drug that
46:25
lets you discorporate and interact with spirits not by yourself we’re doing breaking bad
46:33
you you have to mix it with the right herbs yeah yeah anyway i’ll take one just one
46:39
pouch i’m taking two
46:45
ten linda i’m spiriting some away yeah okay it’s still a lot there’s still a
46:51
lot so you’re taking you’re keeping that you’re keeping um five wheels a piece
46:59
yep and everything else you’re giving um and like everyone can get a good choice piece of
47:04
jewelry each that makes sense it’s kind of like if you would pocket anyway that’s
47:10
because you said there was a loose jewelry right yes i need some jewelry that’s what i think
47:15
you have mine i’m not really that into jewelry i’d take a gold arm talk okay
47:22
so how much do i get worse in jewelry i’ll work that out write down jewelry i mean all these are
47:29
nice pieces keep in mind i’m from australia well it’s all nice pieces nothing of
47:35
this rough hammered golden stuff from the praxian tribes or so
47:40
no no i like some nice stuff um listen to her i love that hammered
47:48
stuff yeah you can melt it the
47:53
question the the the big question is basically who’s presenting all of this to our
47:58
graph and making the speech i would think that would be me gotta be nisk
48:04
and i’d like to say i’d like to do the song to celebrate the the stuff with our dance or whatever for if we could do that
48:11
okay so who’s composing the song um i can do that yeah can i no i can i open no oh yes or
48:19
whatever you’ve already augmented earlier to help get us to keep us the place right
48:26
i wanted to but i didn’t yeah okay i’m very willing to take help
48:33
no question okay i’m i’m augmenting him with my um it’s my singing
48:38
okay let’s see how good of a dog 39 on an idea okay add 20 to your orate
48:47
okay nisk don’t fumble
48:52
zero eight that is a special wow but it’s too off a critical our
49:02
graph accepts the gifts give you guys all a check on your loyalty r graph for this
49:08
one um i don’t have that white board’s the
49:13
same thing and our graph um
49:21
accepts the gift of the house kind of let’s go through this he accepts the gift of the house
49:26
as a place of the white bull um he’s highly amused by this
49:33
seems to think that this is quite funny um makes a comment that
49:42
you all may not be the best bodyguards
49:48
um but are our um clearly your cleverness makes up for
49:56
that [Laughter]50:03
and what he does is he he he proclaims that that villa
50:09
is um uh to be a place dedicated
50:22
to his this protective spirit
50:31
uh and it’s fascinating am i coming in at all we lost you for a second okay so what’s
50:38
up yeah well basically he has you set
50:45
this up as a no you’re you’re frozen yeah oh
50:52
i am all right so our grath uh accepts your gifts
50:58
and uh agrees that the patroma house should be set up as
51:05
a shrine to his uh guardian deity
51:13
and so basically the idea of the house of the white house the the house
51:19
of the white bull of course he’s already claimed the old
51:25
uh lunar palace in the corner of the city which is two or three times the size of this
51:32
as his so he doesn’t intend to reside there uh he does because he made that’s that uh
51:39
your gifts were great the hazio is well appreciated uh and the uh the orate was a special
51:47
success he sets you woe up as the stewards in this household uh
51:54
and he also gifts you back uh you guys gave him 20 amphora
52:02
of wine he gives you back uh 16 amphora of wine keeping four for
52:09
himself okay and he gives back
52:15
a thousand liners
52:28
so um your guy’s role as we kind of speed through
52:34
because we i want to do experience for the first time and power checks and all of that your characters
52:42
um find yourself in the position of of having this strange little house of the the
52:49
uh white bull and the informal rules that seem to be accepted
52:54
is that um the various praxions feel that it is
53:00
entirely appropriate that they can come into the house of the white bull whenever they want
53:07
um and and make an offering of magic points and
53:13
and other offerings there at the little shrine that you’ve set up and i’ll be curious quite what
53:21
you’ve set up to be the shrine and yes claudia smiles big at that one and
53:29
the other thing that uh the the praxians think is that they have
53:35
a right to a drink of wine there
53:42
you all basically kind of have to figure out how you re at some point you’re gonna have to figure out how you resupply
53:50
um all of this wine because you’ve got you know you’ve got 16 m4 which is quite a lot of wine but there’s
53:56
a lot of praxians here do they know how good wine tastes they
54:02
have no clue okay can you water it [Laughter]54:07
so now we have 160 four how much do you water it down a hundred and sixty so you’re gonna
54:14
water it down um ten to one yeah probably isn’t that a bit much
54:21
they don’t know how it tastes they know how alcohol it is that would turn into being non-alcoholic
54:28
claudia yeah yeah and yeah you can put some haze in
54:34
no we don’t have anything anymore certain people still have 10 pouches but
54:40
yeah i mean that’s medicinal purposes so how much do you water down the wine
54:46
no about one to three i think you can water i think one for three is probably appropriate yeah all right
54:52
so i the the the last question i have for this is do you guys
55:00
you guys do you guys actually want to be the people involved to in any amount
55:07
in actually looking after the wine um cleaning up after praxions
55:15
uh doing any of this sort of stuff i want a household
55:20
[Music] yeah i i come in from time to time to
55:28
look for the shrine if everything is nice people can donate to me and yeah
55:34
and then they can leave again not to you i think right
55:39
yeah for me is i mean as a to tiger attack of course but i’m there
55:45
so they have to donate to somebody so i can then bless it and so on
55:51
so i mean we certainly got orlance adventurous and thundurus and if we think of what the white bull is i know what that is because i’m a member of
55:57
that um you have a little ceramic bowl that you’ve painted white
56:02
like something our son like our 10 year old son would have made out of clay that you paint white and
56:08
here’s the white bowl yeah yeah a little orlan stick figure i might pay for a little bit better stuff but
56:15
i’d actually like to recruit a household to manage for this if that’s possible and well given
56:21
that this was a city of um three to four thousand people that has
56:28
just been stacked and a good percentage of the people that that lived in the city have just
56:34
found themselves homeless um uh and occupationless thanks to the fact
56:42
that well you guys sacked it there’s an uh an amazing number of people
56:48
that would be desperate for the opportunity to live in a home
56:56
under the protection of people that have at least a little wooster uh with the praxians and the white bulls
57:04
so recruiting uh a household of staff will not be difficult the bigger
57:11
question is is are there any criteria that you all were putting
57:16
uh yeah no lunas i i i i want to get them i guess i want
57:23
to do what we can and they’re going to have to join the white bowl society if that’s something that we think is possible
57:28
if all of them could do that we could we could recruit some of the wolf pirates white bull is only open to um
57:37
no i mean i don’t think the white bull will accept uh you don’t do that yeah okay
57:43
um i’m sorry i’m sorry people have to have proper hairstyles they have makeup
57:49
and they have to be flossed properly where are you
57:55
yeah i’m sorry otherwise it doesn’t work we have to me
58:02
rigorous sanctuary laws proper household servants yeah and i i need actually my my staff who is
58:10
helping me with my daily makeup curling hair and so on this is my idea
58:16
should have been giving him less money we got we got five we got a thousand lunars
58:21
right and the group i would like and propose that we each get a hundred lunars
58:27
and then we take 500 and we use that for the household in terms of recruiting i will try and
58:33
leverage some of the people or some of the families i know that typically were you know orlanski um
58:39
in the area because i know them from a family perspective right you know people who know the garhounds
58:45
or something like that well i’ll have to think of who’s the one who didn’t exile me
58:50
if you know what i mean right i don’t know if the guard hounds if i filed me or some other or it was like the lunars
58:55
or something he can’t do that but i need somebody from australia you’re welcome to you’ve
59:01
got a hundred lunars go hire somebody yeah good luck finding an australian
59:06
here servant you find his role in me not a servant so that’s what i’d like to do is
59:11
i think that that makes sense and then we’ll have to hire a couple of bodyguards and we’ll have you know Garan make sure that they’re okay and um
59:19
my expectation is while we’re here we’d stay here okay so just not to turn this into an
59:25
accounting exercise here but with about 500 lunars
59:30
for a year you could easily hire um
59:38
uh let’s see two bodyguards are kind of expensive
59:44
not once we’ve sacked it or not what maybe a lot of people looking for work now a lot of worries yeah
59:51
but odds are that in terms of a bodyguard that the folk that have weapons
59:58
uh there aren’t a lot of people on the losing side fair enough that are are are
1:00:05
there to carry weapons you’re you’re you’re basically looking at praxions or mercenaries yeah um
1:00:14
so let me just stay useless for your hair they have no idea
1:00:22
oh claudia’s cut off of style
1:00:33
of course well i know yeah they’re bouncer type tops as well right okay bodyguard
1:00:41
which is properly dressed in a bodyguard which is not we really don’t want mercenaries
1:00:50
yeah mercenaries are disloyal when they’re loyal to coin and we have
1:00:55
are they they ran away from the last guy living here yeah maybe maybe nist maybe we should get
1:01:00
some some guys from our old ship crew you’d have to have ones that don’t want to keep
1:01:06
go traveling and following our graph is the issue yeah well you know
1:01:12
look we can ask around there’s no there’s no problem in trying to ask around there must be here elections who have
1:01:18
seen the taking of new palace as their last their last expedition and are looking
1:01:24
for something to settle down well we can we can um polish out on
1:01:29
slack the fine details of this but basically broad what you think you could afford is you
1:01:35
think you could afford two bodyguards six servants and a
1:01:42
a household manager what that’s out of your hair
1:01:49
stylist this is and with the 500 lunars
1:01:55
you think you could afford to keep them um in your your service for a full year
1:02:02
okay all right so cole bratz what happened to claudia claudia was saying something
1:02:09
i won’t have my hairdresser then you can recruit your own you got 100 lunars
1:02:14
no because you get your bodyguard the bodyguards are so i want to have my hairdresser
1:02:20
the bodyguard is there for you the bodyguards are for this building if somebody comes in and tries to break
1:02:26
in the hairdresser is not going to stop them if somebody comes the bodyguards these guys are
1:02:32
okay do you have any idea how deadly an australian hairdresser is i want to play the adventure where the
1:02:39
australian hairdresser takes out an entire team if you will next i’m so
1:02:44
happy if you find an israelian hairdresser who is that good we can hire them i’m not opposed i’m
1:02:51
saying right now where we are we i don’t believe we can afford it and if you can tell me you can
1:02:56
manage a household and and make profit on this we also have to look at how we are going to ask for
1:03:01
money do i find my australian hairdresser
1:03:08
okay this is new pavis so about how many this is a
1:03:16
well this is a long way away from no church yeah i’m here as
1:03:22
well so what i’m here you came here with the army
1:03:27
can i roll roll for my amusement
1:03:38
no you find a hairdresser but i’m pouting
1:03:48
you chose to come to these civilized lands and hang out with barbarians yeah you find that any bison
1:03:54
hairdresser who dresses bisons
1:04:03
all right yeah so i does this give you guys an idea of your your your guys set up here
1:04:11
um you have this villa which you’ve kind of turned into a
1:04:17
in or or in slash shrine um
1:04:23
where the lot of you all reside uh as long as our grath has decided to be
1:04:29
here what i would like to do is i’d like to have us roll for experience
1:04:34
as the the last thing for the evening and and we will just move forward next
1:04:40
session um forward in time the first thing is is because sacred time is coming up uh
1:04:48
one of the things in secret time is during sacred time which happens at the end of the year you get all your rune points back
1:04:56
very nice so you guys get all of it oh yes claudia needs her
1:05:02
character shape
1:05:09
um so you get all your room points back and i’d like everybody to make their roles
1:05:14
for experience and the way you roll for experience is is you need to roll you look at all
1:05:20
the skills that you’ve used you need to roll above that
1:05:26
uh on 1d100 but you get to add your skill modifier to your dice roll
1:05:34
so for instance if you’re doing a weapon skill and your um your manipulation modifier is plus 15
1:05:42
you add 15 to your dice roll to determine whether you rolled above your skill
1:05:49
and the runes are just the runes and that’s for every skill we used in the game so far that is for
1:05:54
every skill that you you’ve checked in the game so far does that include the runes you do the
1:06:01
same thing with runes but there are no modifiers same thing for passions as well okay
1:06:08
is it a d6 did you succeed yeah it is a d6 now the final thing
1:06:15
is is also most of you guys succeeded on a pal versus pal roll
1:06:22
one way or another during it so maybe what we’ll do is we will start with this
1:06:28
um and with the power versus with uh the power grant game brawl what
1:06:34
you do is you what is your pow current power nisk uh 17 so you have
1:06:41
a 21-4 sorry 21 minus 17 or four four five
1:06:48
a 20 chance of going up in power would you roll i do not succeed linda same
1:06:56
yeah okay i’m gonna do the role in the channel because that that feels like uh when
1:07:01
you’re high in power it feels really shitty oh she’s cheating let’s see okay
1:07:09
oh d20 or 100. do the d20 i would have 100.00 it
1:07:21
[Music] 57 nope nope claudia
1:07:29
what’s your power seventeen and i roll an o4 so your power goes
1:07:38
up uh i believe it is one d3 yeah give me a second i have to get a
1:07:45
dice from you it is clearly that back room
1:07:50
computer has the the goofy lags on it doesn’t it yep yeah like i said we’ll look at it or
1:07:57
the network is on yeah because you’re on the wi-fi
1:08:04
okay would you go for a cold breast what’s your power 11 you’ve got a really good chance of
1:08:10
going up you’ve got a 50 chance okay have a look
1:08:15
uh nope okay and finally Garan 18.
1:08:22
okay so you have the least chance you have only a 15 chance of going up uh 191
1:08:29
okay so it’s only gains it’s d3 it’s d3 minus one oh sorry b3 minus one
1:08:37
claudia or you can pick one uh i rolled
1:08:44
36 so i wrote a four thing what she got one
1:08:52
four yeah so when i buy one yes okay what i would like you guys to do is
1:08:57
just roll for your experience of points i don’t think do we all have to do that while
1:09:03
on camera or it’s going to take a long time i would say that’s going to take a
1:09:08
long time but what we will do is we will stop start with that and um we will go move
1:09:15
forward a season we’re just going to skip the whole next season and move forward for the next one
1:09:22
okay so did we pass sacred time we will go through sacred time because we got a power chance then too
1:09:28

    okay so just to remind you what sacred time is sacred time is the end of the year
    1:10:33
    new year celebrations um that goes on for two weeks and during that period the the
    1:10:40
    boundary between the divine world and the mortal world is very very permeable and everybody
    1:10:47
    stops what they’re doing and performs religious rituals that are designed to basically renew the
    1:10:55
    world and allow the world to go forward and and not die so
    1:11:02
    it they’re during sacred time even the storm bull cult stops fighting
    1:11:07
    except it’s part of religious rituals because this is this is when uh
    1:11:13
    mortals work with the gods to maintain um to maintain the cosmos
    1:11:20
    and they are elaborate ceremonies that go on during it and and that’s why
    1:11:26
    everybody gets a power gain roll attempt on it because these are that you know it’s two weeks of
    1:11:33
    magical activities where the normal normal daily life stops completely for
    1:11:39
