What's up, everybody. Welcome the Table Stories. Simulaca. Yep, yes,
yes, yes, yes, ready. I'm so glad that Paul is
not dead. We think she's right there, she's not dead. We don't
know yet. I don't know. We have no idea. I don't know,
and I got no spoilers. I didn't look up any spoilers or anything
because I was like, I don't they might want me to go in blind.
And then he's like, yeah, you don't know anything, and I'm
like, nah oo, scary. I can't wait to watch this back with
the chat, like, because we can't see the chat during the show,
right, so I watch back and see what they're actually saying and then ignore
what they're saying because it's all meta up exactly. Yeah, Welcome to the
show everybody. If you haven't seen Simon Lockram before, it's a really weird
show that we do here on Table Story. My own my own brain child
that I've I've come up with, well, I came up with a while
ago that I'm still ultra and nervous about to do every week, and it's
it's literally I think it's like one of the only shows that I've ever done
that I get really nervous about because it's it's so weird and meta, and
I'm like, my brain might break during the show. I don't know,
I don't know. It's possible, it's possible it could happen, but luckily,
I I hope it'll at least be a good, good stream if that
happens. That's that's what we hope for on Twitch. If anybody has like
a nervous breakdown, I feel like you do it on Twitch show, at
least you get the views, you know, like it's funny out of that.
You know, that's the that's the like general streamer mentality. I think
that's what they kent. Yah has got it. But welcome to the show.
It's it is super weird are We are playing the new Minera system.
And this show is in fact sponsored by Monty Cook Games. Thank you so
much to Monty Cook Games for helping us out with this show. We actually
approached them and said, hey, we're interested in doing a new Minara show,
and they're like, here, we want to help. Here's stuff.
Take the stuff, and we did a giveaway already and the books are amazing
and you can in fact get some deals on some books. If you want
to play, you can check out this book. This is New Minera Destiny
and New Minera Discovery. These are the two core books. That's right,
there's two of them. They got four hundred and sixteen pages worth of stuff
in here. They got lore, they have creatures, they have adventures,
amazing art, they have cool like they're not really classes in this game,
but they have character types and descriptors and folk I and they're fantastic. And
if you want to get some some books yourself, head and over to the
Monty Cook Games store and you can use a code table story. And she's
not even here. Joke isn't even as funny umpkinberrythmatic. See what happens?
Nothing, nothing happens, that's the answer. I don't know. Darcy is
in chat. Hi Darcy, Everybody say hi to Monty Cook Games. Darcy
as a wonderful person that's been helping us out there, and uh yeah,
it's uh, it's been really great to work with her and Monty Cook in
general. If you missed it on our Patreon, we also have an interview
with Monty Cook which was really great. Me and Brad sat down with him
and we had a we had a great chat about his like how he got
into this whole thing, and we tried to ask like questions that were just
really chill and stuff you don't normally hear in interviews and that kind of thing.
But yeah, check it out. Otherwise, a few notes for tonight
if you haven't seen this show before. Like I said, it's really weird,
and there's gonna be times where the chat will be role playing along in
the show, and I guess the best way to say is you'll see what
happens. It's really weird. The players are trapped in a virtual world.
They got access to a piece of technology called the vrt rig Beta and they
started up in this virtual world, new min Era of the Ninth World,
where all kinds of strange things have happened. Let's go around the room and
introduce our players and we'll get started with the show. We'll get started with
the show. Jay, you want to start us off? Please? Yes,
absolutely, I am glad to bring you me myself and I today vibe
on simul lacram. How's it going, Chat? I can't wait for my
internet to inevitably go out. During a fantastic cliffhanger on the show, tonight
because it's garbage, absolutely garbage right now, So I hope that doesn't happen.
And we love you, Darcy, Thank you, jay K. What
wasn't all right? Hi? Everyone, I'm myth I'm really excited to be
here. I had something to say, but I completely forgot it. But
I'm very very happy to be here. I can't wait to play. Hello
friends, Hello new friends, Hello chats. All right, that's what it
was. Very happy and excited to be here. And I'm also going to
try my best to just channel it, channel it into anxiety because I feel
like that's just how we start and how this game is. So, uh
yeah, let's do this. I'm excited here, let's do let's I'm ready.
Thank you, miss And just a reminder, because I did forget to
mention things do get a bit intense on this show in general. There's some
uh there's some really messed up kind of thoughts and things that happened during the
show. So that's just that's a heads up for you chat. We've talked
to the I've talked to the players about this kind of thing. We try
and make everybody comfortable and let everybody know, like ahead of time, like
it might get intense, and yeah, just be aware of that. Ye
nego ORX. Hi, I'm nego ORX and uh, I'm playing naga ORX,
who has rolled the character of una o Lear. I am a gregarious
Jack who speaks with a silver tongue and think that's I think that covers it.
Hi, thank you for having me. Thank you so much. Pocket.
Hi, I'm nervous. I'm playing myself and my name is Technome in
game, but Pocket obviously I'm just myself. But I'm nervous because last week
I was moving and things didn't pan out exactly how I wanted and I didn't
have my computer set up and time. I'm sorry. I'm happy to be
back and have a place to stream from. But yeah, so I'm excited
to see what happens. I'm also scared because Wat keeps smiling, and I'm
not a fan of that. I mean, I'm a fan of smiling,
but not his smiling. Oanks beautiful smile. I did xfoliate before the show,
So I'm I'm hoping. Yeah, uh, thank you. And obviously
we have no PB tonight. We have no PB tonight, so how will
that affect the group? You'll have to see. It's really interesting. But
yeah, PBS, PBS away this week. She's away this week, and
uh, there might be some some stuff that happens because of that. We'll
see. We'll see what happens though chat. We might have a special guest
tonight as well, but I don't we we'll we'll meet them when we meet
them. I think we meet them. Yeah, well, where is brad
act? Never mind? Hello, I'm here. Hello, it's backwards.
Hello, it's all right bright Hello, all right, yeah, I'm why
Stephen and I will be your administrator today and I am also playing the part
of Noll. The the way that the players interact with the world and make
roles and stuff. If you haven't seen the show before again, you'll figure
it out real quick. Anyway, is everybody ready up into the game?
I guess okay, great, last session on SIMI Lockram. And by the
way, players, this is your chance now to close the chat stream.
If you would like to role play along, you can. If you're gonna
stay out of character in the chat, you can just put some parentheses around
your text that you type in chat so that we know that you're talking out
of character. On the last session of simulacrum. The group had encountered some
strangeness in the woods near Caffoard, where a strange sound was blasting and also
through someone's microphone right now, what is that noise? And also was creating
horrific, horrific sounds through the town of Cafoard, making the people that were
around deafened by this horrible noise and causing all kinds of horrific problems in the
town. However, people that were blind seemingly were able to not hear this
sound. Strangely enough, the players discovered the source a strange new min era
of some kind near the town, and they went to investigate, riding on
the backs of these lizard like creatures called gallon, and they came across these
three sort of strange triangular metal plates in the forest that were guarded by these
automatons, these spherical automatons that shot lasers and were seemingly guarding this new min
era. Pumpkinberry's character tried to disable them, and Hockett's character, along with
Jay Gamerson, tried to sort of get ready to engage. When Hockett's character
started to glitch and fell to the ground, eyes open, Hockett, if
you could be so kind as to remove your headset eyes open. The group
thought that she died, were unclear as to what happened to her. They
did their best to take care of her while they fought these strange automatons known
as Gazers. And when they defeated these gazers, they managed to get into
these triangular plates in the ground and they discovered some new minera. They found
a device an artifact that showed them twitch Chat for a brief period of time,
their only communication outside the world. They returned to the town of Caphord
with Technom and Tow and they were greeted happily as the villagers finally had some
peace from this horrific noise. Everyone was relieved and happy, except there was
a strange feeling that sort of rested about the players. They all kind of
felt obviously down because they don't know what has happened to Pocket and her character,
and they don't know what's happening to them. Still, the brief glimpse
that they got into twitch chat I think set them in a bit of panic.
There were a few messages that came through that I think they saw,
and it was rather unsettling perish. One of the elders of caph Forward suggested
that they were able to rest there and eat and decide on their next move.
All of you would have gotten some food and a place to rest.
Night would have been approaching. Are you staying in the village, Yeah,
yeah, tentsitively. I think we should spend at least one night. What
do you do with Technom? I think I bring her after the meeting yesterday.
I think I bring her and some of the gallon and I bring them
to the stables, and I would like to maybe hide her body under some
of the hay and such there, because I do know that we wanted to
try to keep wanted to try to keep her body away from the the NPCs
because we knew that she had some sort of glitching with Null, so we
were worried that she would do harm to the NPCs and we didn't want to
see that. So at least I don't so I mythematic, who's playing al
Rick, I'm going to do that. I Am going to take the gallon
to the stables or wherever the gallon reside, and I will maybe spend the
night there and keep an eye out for and just make sure that she's safe.
So she just to be clear, they would have like a bed of
some kind, you know, in whatever room they put everybody in. But
you're staying in the stables with her. I'm stay in the stables to make
sure nobody disrupts the body. I'm more worried about what would happen to the
people interacting with her, because right now she is an anomaly that we know
that is harmful, we think to the system itself, okay, And I
would have let everybody know this too. Yeah, probably bring you food.
At some point a few hours would have passed, and I think Phebe kind
of like went off on her own. She would have said that she was
going to eat and basically that she just needed to think about all of this.
And she was really upset about not thinking fast enough to speak to her
husband while you guys were able to communicate with twitch chat. So she was
pretty upset when she when she walked off. And uh, we can start
the session with with Jay bringing the food to all Rick. So I go
into the stable then, yeah, yeah, I mean I want some food.
How's she doing? Uh? Yeah, I didn't realize how hungry I
was she's doing fine. I mean, I mean fine is I mean it's
going fine. No one's come by. Yeah, she's still no response.
Have you like messed around with anything at all? Like, have you tested
the system at all? Anything? No, listen, if she's if she's
actually dead, right in some way, she's that that that would be our
ticket out of here. I can't I can't help but stop thinking about the
fact that he was so quick to welcome us and I don't want to stay.
When we were trying to strap her body into that fucking horse thing,
right, it said no, the system said no, and you did it
anyways. That blew me away, like you you still tied her to that
horse thing. Well, yeah, we needed to get her safely here and
another way, but I don't know, man, it fell for a second.
They're like, you like bled into the game, like you were let
into the game. Well, I mean, what do you mean it was
stopping you, right, he was trying to the roles were stopping you.
Noel was saying no. Well, Noel wasn't saying anything. And then you
did it anyways as if you were just an NPC in the world, or
or you had been here the whole time, you didn't, you weren't you're
not bound by Roles fanling, or you just did it. So I don't
know. I just can't help but think that's she somehow glitched it. Then
that might be a way out. I think that. I think that's more
it. I don't know if I was a part of the game or anything.
I hope not, but like, yeah, I think if if anything,
and I think, yeah, if we interact with her, we pick,
the game doesn't know, we interact with her, whatever we do with
her, the game doesn't know. Yeah, but that's not going to change.
I'm not gonna I'm not gonna use an exploit of somebody else to get
out of here. I never have and I don't in any video game,
nor even in this. I'm not going to do that, especially now.
It's that's somebody, that's that's not just a cheat code, that is somebody.
Even if we have to survive, Like I don't want to be here
forever, I don't either, but there's got to be another way out.
And I and now even just just the way it is now, I mean,
even with her, like the reason why I'm here is I don't want
I don't want this I don't want whatever's happening with her to interact with those
who are here, though I still feel and like, yeah, everything's well
voice acted here, but there was so much there was so much emotion in
Harrish, Yeah, like so much emotion with the people who have taken there
exactly. It's very real and like I've done voice work, and I like
I could see these kinds of things. But there is definitely there's more to
it than just just lines and classic like being trained, you know, I
mean, it's oh, there's more, and I don't I don't know.
You I don't know. Maybe I am, maybe I am becoming a little
bit more into the game. Maybe I am becoming the game, But I
mean I'm not. I don't want I don't want to, like I said,
I don't want to use I don't want to use. Yeah, her
as a cheat code, I'm gonna like slum down against the wall probably and
just you know what I mean, I guess so. But her body is
just kind of rested up against the wall nearby, eyes were closed. What
do we do? You know, what do we do? What do we
kind of cover the body at some point and just kind of hope she yeah,
I don't know. I don't know we could. Is there somebody in
town we could talk to her? Rash Irish whatever his name is, maybe,
I mean he's he was? Did they say he's the elder? I
think so, Yeah, like the cipher smith or something. Maybe we should
talk to him. He may not understand. For all I know, he
may not even see her. It may not he just he may not comprehend
it. But they would, you know, I mean if they, if
they did, they would surely recognize her from before rights if they see her.
Yeah, I don't even see her. Remember when I went to interact
with her before Noel didn Noel couldn't finish, yeah, like short it out.
Yeah, he would short out, like he knew he had to say
something, but couldn't finish it. So I wonder if they even will even
see it. Yeah, as if Noel is. And when we brought up
Technom as a character, it said player character you know, not right?
Yes, I forgot about unknown. Thank you for the food, Oh yeah,
I mean thank them our new town I guess place. I don't know
if I want to stay here. Yeah, it's fucking creepy. That's everyone's
blind or Yeah, I mean, if I'm going to live in it and
being in an in an venture, I'd kind of want to see this,
see the countryside. I mean, it's now Manara. It's the ninth world
I've been I've been studying and and and I'm always dreaming about it. And
I've played three games of this, and it's like I know some of the
Countryside and I'd love to see more of it. I know there's more of
it. We were supposed to have a New and Aaron show on Table Story
soon and then the ship. I played it a couple times though, so
I mean, like that's how I thought of the pocket portal thing with the
dagger, but right, I don't know, that was pretty cool, though
I was fucking sick. I mean I saw the dagger and then it disappeared
and I saw it back, and you just it feels weird when I do
it, but it's just like snapping. It's just you know, it's New
manera. Yeah, yeah, that is cool. I just really would you
really would you sort of just be relaxing for the rest of the night,
Yeah, probably just talking back and forth like that. Yeah, we're gonna
switch over to Negro ORX so I have. I'm trying to say how much
money I have. I'm not one hundred percent sure where it is. It's
under equipment, it says shins, got it. Okay. So I'm at
the bar. I've resigned myself to the fact that we're staying here for a
night, and I think, you know what, I've always been fascinated by
what does alcohol taste like in video games? And so I've decided to be
best friends with everyone sitting at the bar, and I buy around for everybody
around me. And there's a lot of celebrating going on in the village.
In general, people are very happy, even though there's several villagers that have
kind of like you know, basically blinded themselves to stop hearing these horrific sounds.
There's a lot of people that have basically gotten some like oral implants to
drown out the sounds and like white noise generators. But in general, there's
there's like a pretty happy feeling around the town. There's a lot of like
boisterous, uh sort of sort of feelings there. So I'm just gonna slap
the bar and go holdants a drink from one of the heroes that made the
sound go away. In this town. I'm buying everyone. Hello, Yes,
thank you. There's Hilarry. Nice to meet you. There's a female
bartender at the at the at the at the bar there and she just kind
of leans in and she says, it's on the house. What was your
name? My name is Gondra. Thank you Gondra. And the drinks may
be on the house, but I will be tipping very nicely tonight, so
keep them coming. Thank you. Hello everyone, And I'm just trying to
be everyone's best friend. And I'm cheersing with anyone who will make eye contact
with me, and I'm asking for the life story of anyone and everyone who's
in this little uh tavern with me. Sure, please make please make a
difficulty to intellect check in regards to pleasant conversation or social interaction. So Noel,
could I roll that under a skill of social interaction? Then yes,
yes, okay, thank you, difficulty to You have rolled at ten.
People around the tavern are just sort of happy to talk to you. They're
very friendly. They're just saying, like all these different stories that kind of
happened to them since this has been going on, you know, what it's
done to the town and how much they appreciate you. It's all just praise
being heaped on you. Extremely thankful people. And they've been they've been talking
a lot about like, you know, the next ships that come into the
port, we can start trading more frequently. Uh, this, this will
completely reinvigorate the town. Just a lot of those kinds of conversations are happening
right now and it goes on for a few hours. There's a lot of
merriment to be had. And are you drinking the whole time? Oh yeah?
The the alcohol in general, I think it's it's like they have a
lot of there's a lot of fruit and things that are harvested in the area,
so there's probably a lot of wine and generally like really sweet drinks,
like a lot of sweet alcohol that they have in the area. And do
you have a preference? Would you go for wine or would you go for
like some of the sweeter stuff if you're trying a little bit of everything.
If they have any beers, I always love a really really really sour beer
or really heavy stout. Okay, I want to be best friends of the
bartender, Like that's my goal for the night. Oh yeah. In general,
gondra is she's also really friendly. You don't seem to have any problems
interacting with anybody tonight. You have a really great time. Please make a
might check difficulty for in relation to alcohol and drinking. Yeah, you have
rolled in Natural twenty. So not only are you drinking people under the table,
but I think that they sort of invite you to play. There's like
a you can see there's some kind of game going on at one of the
tables. People are uh drinking drinks and putting the uh putting their like mugs
and their and their glasses and stuff on their heads and trying not to spill
them. You could see it's not going super well. It's like seventy percent
of the people are dropping their dropping their mugs and stuff. People. Yeah,
but like there's there's they're they're obviously playing some kind of drinking game.
And some of them like invite you over and they say, come come play
with us. Hero, can forward please my people? Of course? What
are the rules wo I have to do? To join? All right?
You need to do five spins. After you do the five spins, you
need to touch the person to your left on their shoulder. If you miss
their shoulder, you have to drink and do it again. Yes, love
it, love everything about it. Let's do it. Please make a difficulty
for speed check in relation to alcohol or drinking. You have one asset difficulty
for okay, one ass at it? Yeah, no, no, no,
you have rolled a three. That good. Unfortunately, you're starting to
feel the effects of the alcohol now and you uh, you start to spin
around and then you grab the table and you totally you totally missed the shoulder
completely, and everybody yells drink whoo. And this goes on for much of
the night. Does anyone check on Pumpkinberry? I would like to try to
check on Pumpkinberry by the time that the like by the time last call is
called and people are kind of starting to clear out, I'd kind of like
to look around, and I noticed that Peebe isn't there, and I kind
of think to myself, it's last call. I should bring a beer to
a Pumpkinberry. Pumpkinberry would like a beer. I think a nightcap is a
good idea. I would like one of your finest beers. And it's time
to go our tender. Who's am I forgot? Gondra? Gondra. She
smiles and she says. She says, of course, and she fills one
up. And I do remember, hopefully, hopefully I have my wits about
me enough to remember where Peebee walked off to when she went to be by
her lonesome. I'd like to bring her a beer to keep her some company
and close the night out with a friend. Okay, is her door locked
or unlocked? Or please make an intellect check Difficulty three? Yeah, you
have rolled a five. You can't quite remember which house she went to.
You get a little bit turned around in the village, and you're just kind
of Pumpcuberry punkabery. Oh no, you have one of those pee Peebee?
Way, Peebee, I got you a drink, nothing, no response,
Pumpkinberry. I'm gonna drink this all if you don't say anything back to me.
This beer looks pretty tasty, Peebe. I'm gonna go back and start
walking back to the stables where saw Je go to earlier. Pumpkinberry. Hey,
hey, hey, guys, do you remember o PBu is going?
There was somewhere in their tom it wasn't feeling well right, is sure?
Right? Did you see her? Is she like a morning person or a
night owl? Because I'm shouting her name and she wasn't saying anything. That's
what that was. That was you, That wasn't no, that was a
dying porky pot. That wasn't me. I don't know what you're talking about.
I just have this beer for Pumpkinberry and it was last call, and
I think she might like it. Py Check difficulty three. Una O'Leary,
you got a bud hold on? Whoa did it? Nailed it? Eleven
out of ten. Una stumbles in and she trips and falls on top of
the Technome, spilling the beer that she has in her hands all over Technom.
Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, pocket, I'm so sorry.
Does anybody have like a towel or like a napkin or something. I'm going
to try to get her off of the body snafuly, of course, not
like throw her, but just like just I'm like walking over suspiciously. You
start to see glitches happening guys on Technom's body. Does anyone else see that?
Or did I just have like one too many beers? What did you
do? Did that you landed? What? Wait? Difficult difficulty Technom difficulty
difficulty technom tech Technom difficulty jag Emerson all Rich Shild difficulty tech Technom tech technom
difficulty tech Technom tch technom Pocket. I'm gonna go down on like Chuck Herb.
At this point, that technome begins to move. Holy shit, did
uh sh don't wake up yet? Are we with? Oh ship, it's
you guys? What the You're not dead? How much should I drink?
But we were told you were dead? You were dead technom. The last
thing you remember, you were in that forest with them, with the gazers
sort of popping up out of the ground and everybody getting ready to attack.
This is a bit startling for you. Where am I right now? You're
in You're in a You're in a stable, uh a stable, were dying?
We were, we were, but that you you collapsed and you you
were gray, like your your body was gray, void of any sort of
blood or any fluid at all, and you were just kind of like this
plastic looking body, definitely looking dead. And uh we we spoke with Chat
through a cipher and they told us that you were dead. So I thought
dead dead or like like dead dead, like, hey, oh you guys
from the hospital, Pocket's dead, Like that's what we heard and like,
you guys are fine here, but your bodies are at the hospital. Uh,
and pockets dead. So we I didn't know. And then like I,
I went to I'd last you to the gallon when we were done.
By the way we we did, there's no more sounds. You know,
you could take the headphones off, but the the uh, the gallons,
those lizard things. Uh, I last you to it. And when I
did, Noel started talking and started glitching out, like you guys all heard
that just now? Yeah? Yeah, like now okay, yeah, yeah
I could Yeah did you you you heard that just now? I mean,
did you pocket? Yeah? Okay yeah. I just like I don't,
I don't. I don't know. I thought maybe like you know, you
know when you wake up from a dream and music was playing, and you're
like, I woke up and I thought music was playing, so I was
gonna. I don't think it's pulling on anymore. I just don't know.
I went back in this damn game, and and then I was dead in
real life. I don't know, don't. I don't really know what happened.
I don't know what's going on in real life. None of us do.
But we thought anyway, I went to the last year and he started
doing that glitching thing. Uh, and I did it anyway, and then
we were worried that we were going to like make a rip in the world.
So I just hid you here a rip in the world. You witched
the game out? Yeah, NOL didn't even Well, I've always wanted to
be a hacker. So you were close. Yeah close, I was.
I thought if you were dead, I was like two days away from using
your body to do what to do? What you Okay, the fact that
you've been spilled the drink on you is crazy. A day ago we couldn't
even or earlier today we couldn't even touch you up, We couldn't touch you
all what oh anytime we had to roll null fucked up and it broke the
game. Yeah, so it's just for safety. I kept you here so
no one else, not any of the NPCs you or interact with you,
or if we buried you at all, something maybe could have happened. So
we just I don't know, we were trying to figure out what to do.
So, but I'm glad you're here. Welcome back, I think,
welcome back to the Ninth World. Yeah, can I do a perception check
to see if anything's like currently different, like wrong with me. Please make
a difficulty three intellect based check in regards to healing. Oh healing? Okay,
whoops, yeah, you have rolled a ten. Your stack pools are
the way that you left them. Hm hmm. I don't why y'all knock
me out? Oh sorry, I'm gonnaterrupt you Sorry? Oh it was it
was so weird. It was like one minute you were there and then the
next minute it was like it was like you had been like you evaporated from
your body or something, and it was like this husk of you just collapsed
and you were colorless. Are you weird? Are you drunk? What all
of booze? Are you drunk? You didn't get drunk here? Oh we
should get drunk, do you would? You? Do you want this extra
beer that I got for Pumpkinberry? I just grab it. I was like,
there's like a little left, chug it and it's like just drops.
Yeah, I will get trust me if they love us here because we saved
them. I don't even know how many beers I paid for. I think
they just like bought them all for me. Do you There was this bartender
she and I we're homies. Now, do you want one? Yeah?
I mean yeah, I could use a lot of beer. Let's just get
a lot of beer. I don't you know what. I don't want to
be here. Beer helps. Let's just go get a beer. This is
great because this is like what if a drunk white girl became a pirate?
Oh my god, that's one right now, that's what I was going for.
How did you know? Let's you're drunk all the time. I love
it. Be in character. Yes, let's do it right now? Are
are okay? I'll have right we were in forest, giant balls came out
and a tap they did? You guys were fine. We took care of
him. I died, yes, yeah, pumpkin dot no. No,
no, no, she just went back to her room early. Oh okay,
good good, I'm glad. Okay, who I thought two deaths?
I mean I tried to get out of a drink with us, but I
think she went to bed early. Okay. Uh? And then you drug
something dragged me all the way back here into a stable. And now it's
like I've I've, I've it's like the second Coming of Jesus, and Jesus
right now I'm literally Jesus right now, and I'm in like an angel looking
this is great, okay, kind of what's happening? My heart? We
didn't tell the town that you died because then I think it would be I
think it definitely a bigger deal. Yeah, why didn't you tell them what
was going to happen? We should have. They would have made a religion
around Pocket. How cool would that be? It would be an issue for
all of us because that would would probably be I don't know. I think
there'd be well, there'd be like an Easter holiday for Pocket coming back,
and we'd get like chocolate, eggs and stuff. It would be great.
Did they even have chocolate? I don't Anyway, that's not a point.
What what are we doing now? Are we gonna go to the bar?
I'll find it and maybe yeah, maybe you know, I need a drink.
This is all too much. I don't I died in real life.
You talked to Chat. I don't be able to talk to them since that
one time. Yeah, we found out we found a cipher and we we
we used it and talk to Chat cipher. Yeah, it's exactly what it
was, and maybe had it for maybe I don't know. Forty seconds or
so of us looking at Chat, and this is what I'm going to say.
They say they they're all doctors and lawyers, all of them, every
single one. They all have PhDs. I don't believe anything they say.
I don't. I didn't. I didn't die. There's no way I died.
Look, I'm here now, Okay, So don't trust chat. Okay,
now wait, wait, wait, idea, how what's going on in
the real world? But hold on. There were a ton of people,
like multiple people in chat saying that we were in the hospital, and I
only saw one person's say, pocket dyed I r L. What if that
person was just a troll? Like are we not taking that into account?
What if they were just messing with us? Yeah? Right, But we're
all in the hospital, so that means that we're in these cooma stuck in
this world. Wait, well, hold on, okay, quick question.
I know that like coma, if we're in a hospital alive because we're not
awake there. Well yeah, but hold on, the five of us were
like grouped up together. Did anyone see anybody else posting on social media that
they had gotten invited that we just weren't like playing with on that day?
Like, are there any other streamers that we knew were going to be in
this world? There's no way. Ever since I got the invite, I
don't know. I've been Yeah, I don't really pay attention to anything,
honestly. Okay, So like what if that's a thing? Like what Yeah,
I mean there might be people that are also in the game that we
just didn't group up. But I mean we've got to assume the top streamers
got beta codes. They always do. Yeah, that's why we made the
So okay, so why don't we more sense now about the damn thing?
Why don't we try and find more people to group up with to try and
get out with? Like what if they found more information about how to get
out than we have. There's got somebody, some players. Yeah, we
got to that's a really good idea. Now, what were the starting zones?
Because what do you think they went to? Hear? Did we could
start everywhere? Wasn't there there was like a something not on the coast.
Wasn't there somewhere else that we maybe wanted to start out but we weren't sure
about Tiger Place? They that was dre OLiS, right, yeahs Tiger Place.
I really wanted to go to Isco ball because that sounded beautiful. Can
I open we have like a map probably would have been like is ball balls
a lot of people? Yeah? Wow? To make our way there?
Uh yeah, maybe we should ask someone into Maybe we should go to the
bar, relax, get a drink, ask people where like a nearby capital
is maybe or something, want to go there because I imagine if you're if
you're a player, you're probably gonna want to go to the capital of wherever
you started, you know, kind of like if you start in Durotar,
you want to go to Orgermar eventually. Yeah yeah, yeah, right right
road to lead there. Okay, well you guys, all right, I'll
go wake up Bbe and I'll tell her to meet to set the bar.
Okay, I can't wait to get a drink. Okay, let's go.
My heart's still racing, are you? Uh? Is that your hearts beating?
Yeah? I mean I we it's like like it feels like it's gonna
burst out of my chest. Like maybe I'm just anxious. I don't know.
You want to hug No, okay, this is all clunky and stuff
and it just yeah, if there one please make a might check in regards
to endurance difficulty level three. Boy oh boy, I wonder if it's done.
Dun dun dum Warren's level three. No, dude to endurance and I
die again? Keep getting my another character. Alcohol makes me stronger. I
have terrible might. I have the lowest might of all of my abilities.
What's yours? Eleven? All right? Currently it's probably a bar. Techno
has rolled a five. O'Leary has rolled a nine, Ulrich Shiloh has rolled
a fourteen. Jacamerson has rolled a one. No recognizes you're back in the
game now. Yeah, I'm just gonna turn to Alric and be like,
whoa winners up top? But you are exhausted. You are really really tired.
It's been a long day of me a bit of me being passed out.
Yes, uh Una and Alric, you're you're feeling you're getting tired,
but you're not like ready to pass out quite yet. All right, Jacamerson,
you have activated a GM intrusion. You accept the GM intrusion or will
you pay one player XP to cancel it? I will accept and give XP
to all Rick, Ulrich Shiloh and Jacob Marison gain one XP. Good man,
uh as you get up, jay, you you're a bit wobbly,
and you didn't quite realize how frigging long of a day it's been for you
and how tired you are. You like do that thing. I don't know
if anybody else has this or I'm just that old, but when you get
up in the morning and you take that trip to the bathroom and you do
like the drunken lean against the wall, like, oh my god, I
can't even stand up yet. Yeah, you just like you do that stumble
lean into the wall and uh yeah, you just now realize how tired you
are, Like you don't you don't know how much you got left in you
for the day. All right, Fuck babe, she can sleep. Let's
go to the bar. We'll just make it quick. What time is it
in the server? Do you guys know I can't access the menu? You've
night has it's been? I mean you could tell it's it's been a few
at least like four hours or so since night has fallen. Okay, Okay,
I'm gonna be really kind of like not being able to see them,
innu. It definitely helps me with the immersion, which also helps me a
little bit more in comfort because of being here, Otherwise I think it would
be a little I'm I go where you're I'm just tired, you know.
Oh, clock, Jake, let's get it a drink? Yeah, beer
clock, red Bull? I'm right? Yeah? Can it be red Bull
o' clock? I don't think they have red Bull almost maybe I wish.
Yeah, maybe they call it something different like Phoenix Phoenix energy. Are you
all gonna try and wrap up the night in the bar and just kind of
drinking to already pass out? Okay, I have a couple of beers,
Okay, get but I'll just have a couple of beers, maybe three.
A couple of beers maybe three? Yeah, sounds like a few might check
Difficulty three in regards to alcohol or drinking. Hmm, it started I was
in a couple and always ends up being four or five. Muh huh,
Mike correct. Una has rolled an eleven? Yeah, Alric has rolled a
fourteen? Are we all rolling correct? Oh? Crap, I don't want
to do this. Difficulty three? Why do you gotta do this to me?
I just can I get a welcome back? Oh? Never? I
mean, never mind, I'm gonna go drink. I didn't drink. Okay,
you guys drink into the wee hours of the night, head back to
your to your rooms and whatnot and go to sleep. Uh, Jay,
you do so pretty early, and uh you you kind of just pass out.
Everybody just kind of passes out. Mm hmm. Morning comes. That
burst of sunlight just hits you right in the eyes in the morning, that
hangover wake up call. All that always happens. And this place is kind
of like half on the water and kind of partially in the woods, and
uh, some of you just get kind of blasted in the face by son
as a wake up call. Oh my god, Oh my god, good
morning sunshine. Oh my god. Please shy, quiet, please, oh
my god. I had too many. Jeez, you guys fucking hungover.
I thought I want to see you. I'm not that hung arithmetache because I
know my drinking. Would you guys your morning notification? Yes? Quietly,
quietly matter if you cover your eyes, just cover them just just with a
pillow or something. I don't know. You have one notification? So quiet,
but how do we read it? No? No, would you like
me to read the notification? Yes? Quietly, quietly? Party member CORALI
has left the group. What I'm sorry, what you leave the game of
notifications? Now? Where was Corli last scene? The man's not understood?
No, when did coral I leave the group? Well? I think it's
like a video game where we won't actually know because they just what what's what's
the time? Stamp on? When she left the group? Nol unrecognized command?
Noel, is CORALI still in the game? Can we can we message
Coralai unrecognized? Can man? Okay? Did we get a message like this
for Pocket? I don't think. Oh no, we didn't. What the
fuck does that mean? Did she now? I don't know. Do we
just leave or do we stay here because she may come back. Well,
if you can leave the group, maybe that means that we can get new
group members, maybe we can form a raid I wanted to that means But
what does that mean about Pumpkin Berry? Does that mean she left the whole
game? What does she die in the game? No? I don't think
she died, because if she died, she would still be in the group.
She figured it out or like it would have been like a pumpkin but
he has died? Well, how would we know? Though it's never happened
before? Right, No, what do we remember of Corlai and Les answer
that, please make an intellect check difficulty three. Okay, what did I
thought this is in regards to memory? Can we can we all do that?
All? Yes? Well I imagine I can't. I mean I was
passed out or whatever, dead I remember? Oh you remember her? Right?
They can't tell you where you lost the hole. It doesn't even matter.
It just matters that a null said her name. I mean she's not
out of the game. Okay, difficulty three. Correct. Well, there's
a lot of threes today. Jacobmerson has rolled a six Huna O'Leary has rolled
a natural one. Ulrich Shiloh has rolled a ten. Technome has rolled at
sixteen. Hun O'Leary rolling a natural one provides a GM intrusion. Do you
accept it or will you use one of your XP to cancel this? I
accept it. You gain one XP and you can give one to another member
of the party. I will give it to Technome. Technome gains one XP.
Be if a par healer, good job, I got your pocket.
As soon as you say coralized. As soon as you say coralized name,
uh Una, you you you get really hazy and you really cannot remember when
you saw her last? Okay it so does anybody even remember the last time
we saw CORALI like, I know she was in the game with us,
But al Rick, what ull Rick? You and Technome remember what house she
went to sleep in? Basically probably, I think what happened was Ulric probably
saw it while you were out drinking, technom and he probably like pointed to
it. Oh that's how you know, probably during the can't remember it at
all. Yeah, I'm just yeah, she went that way. I don't
remember. I don't remember. But Noel still said Coralie's name, so that
means she's in the game. I just smoke a lot of weed. Kind
of a bad memory. I guess that's a good call, though. I
mean she if she wasn't or if she was in like a weird state,
then I guess Noel wouldn't say her name like we had before with Pocket,
I could do the Yeah, well, I mean if she's if we saw
her go into a place, then let's go check. Yeah, let's just
go check that place see if there's like any sign of her. Yeah,
I remember she want to Yeah, follow me. I think, does anybody
have any water before we go? Out. It's a really good idea.
I wish I thought of that last night. I don't. I don't.
I don't think I can get out of this bed if I don't have some
water right now, I mean I think I have a fall on. I'll
look see if I have like a water skin. I don't. Oh here
pocket, by the way, if you want to see the twitch chat cipher,
this is the tablet, and I'll hand her that weird work new min
era cipher tablet thing. I don't have any hot water, and then we
could all go, or I could get you a water for the way back
and you can keep sleeping. Yeah, yeah, maybe there's some important investigative
for it. I get you in this bed with like the the window locked
so there's no sun in here. Maybe get some rest so that way when
we come back, you're ready to go, I'll close the drapes. Oh,
bless you, Jay, thank you. All right, we'll be back.
Don't log out or leave the group. Okay, don't die, Yeah,
don't do that either, Yes, please don't die. Okay, all
right, all right? Maybe she just like joined another group, like maybe
she found someone nay, remember like followed seventy six, So you can only
have like four people in a group at a time. So like, because
there's only four people in a group at a time, that we're definitely not
writing. No, do we have any whispers or anything, or there's no
other notifications. Maybe she'd like let us know there are no other notifications,
right, Okay, let's go, let's go see. Yeah, yeah,
you make it way to to the to the house where Pumpkinberry was resting.
It's just in general, these these places are pretty like low key. You
know. There's a lot of them are kind of combinations of wood, stone
and some like found sort of like technology. It's like a really weird amalgam.
You'll see some houses that are just like thatched roofs. Yeah, and
then you'll see some that are like made out of some weird metal that looks
like it was scavenged. You know. It's just a strange amalgam of different
pieces for this place. You know, some of them are like well crafted
like cabins, and then others are just kind of ramshackle. Hers is probably
one of the places with the thatched roof and you you approach, all right,
I knock on the door. There's no response. I knock a couple
more times, pebe we're coming in. There's no response. I'll just open
the door. It's not locked. You open the door, the bed is
made, and you see something on the bed looks like a piece of paper.
Okay, okay, which one of us grabs it first. I'll grab
the paper. You search the room, I'll grab the paper. Yeah,
I'll look at our looking at the paper. There's just a note that's been
written on it in English, and it says I have to leave. I
can't do this, says she's got to leave. She can't do this.
I mean, we don't really have a choice. Can't do what? Like
this is all we know what to do now, like this is well,
maybe she found a way out, but I really hope it was a safe
way out. Yeah. Well I feel like she wouldn't just leave us if
it was a safe way I mean hope she wouldn't just leave us. She
was pretty broken up last night when we got back, when we opened up
the cipher and spoke with Chat, she was really interested in how we were
doing, how Chat was, if we are okay, and then the cipher
turned off, and then when we got back, she kind of just broke
down because she realized and shed there was just so many more important people like
her husband that she didn't ask about. So I don't know if she probably
was like, I can't do this anymore. I have to leave and be
with him, so I don't. Please please make an intellect check difficulty too
based on perception all of us, all of you, Yeah, you have
rolled a three technome. Sorry, I forgot to have the fucking skill.
The rest of you, please roll an intellect check difficulty too, based on
perception I did. Jagamerson has rolled of seventeen. Ulrich has rolled a fifteen.
Luna h what yeah, please make a perception check roll intellect based difficulty
to yeah, all on one second? No, you got a button?
You all know outside the house, someone's looking a bit stunned. There's recognize
there's someone standing outside that looks pretty baffled by the whole scene. She's obviously
looking in towards you, and she seems a bit stunned. Special guest,
what do you look like? I have a very large mohawk with shaved sides
of my head, and my eyes are this glowing blue and it looks like
a camera lens. So they adjust and they're vibrant, but other than that,
I just look like a plain old human. You heard them talking about
Pumpkinberry, and you kind of followed while all this was going on, They've
been talking about someone, you know in real life. You can see that
they see you. You're outside this window for this house, just kind of
mouth the gate outside, Haitie. I don't think you'd recognize her? No,
I thought we I think you said we recognized her. No, she
she recognized the name, but you saw Okay, okay, she doesn't look
like Katie. Can can we tell if it's a player character though, because
I mean, clearly we're in a town surrounded by MPCs, you know.
Oh no. Also, just to clarify, I'm still back at the at
our rooms. I'm hungover, I'm still in bed, So then I would
hello, who is that? That doesn't look like one of these these towns?
People? Who are you? That has a light on the end of
it, and it's just it's like moving back and forth, kind of like
a compass would, but it's like settling on you. Guys. You see
this like electrical discharge start to go off from it, and it kind of
like zaps your hand a little bit and you just kind of let it go.
Yeah? Can you? Can you not shine that on us? Got
my head, very brady? What is she? Fellow people? Hello?
Weird person with a light? And who the fuck are you? What was
that? What are you doing? We're not opeing right now? Okay did
you just did you just say bb? Pummyberry? Yeah, Pumpkinberry. Are
you are you a gamer? Yes? Are you a gamer? Is she
here? No? No, she was, She's gone, She's gone.
Now are you at the wait a minute, do you know Punkinberry? Yeah?
Are you a streamer? You gotta be a streamer? Yes? Who
who are you? Who are you? Uh? See? Uh? In
this game, I'm techno, but you can also call me pocket j elbows
up, cumbles up, elbows up? Oh you watch Table Story? Yeah?
Sick? Yeah? I jamples Katie. Oh my god, guys,
it's Katie. I'm gonna run over to Jay and hug him. Yeah,
I'm gonna hug Katie. You want to explain what you look like before she
dies? Am absolutely disgusting. I am a disgusting human being. I am
the ugliest son of a gun in this game. If you've seen Full Metal
Alchemist Brotherhood I look like doctor Marco, like in episode thirty to forty,
just like how to just say Okay, but my name is Jacob Rison,
an undeniably recognizable, beautiful man. I don't even care that he's the likeliest
human that I've ever seen. I'm just gonna gi him, thig hug this,
guys. This just KP P Right jamals generals. Yeah, I'm Katie
P. Peters plays. Oh hih shit, I'm mythematic. I've got a
long coat, I've got some like harness underneath. It's got a bunch of
vials and stuff. Pompadoor in a shock of a fiber optics how it goes
through, and we've got like a pistol looking thing in my hip. Hi,
nice to meet you. We ever got a pleasure? Oh, I
know you did some table story stuff. Yeah, I'm probably gonna be late.
I should probably let Whack know about Monday. We got Nega works here
as well. We had, but she's missing. Yeah, but she's she's
hung over. She's a drinking. Yeah, we were drinking. We drank
a lot less. Well okay, but the rest of us, Yeah,
we got a little. The meat is great, you know, like when
you're done with a quest and then they're like, hey, around on us,
that's a beer and you're like, okay, three more. Okay,
that's that was it. We had a couple of five. Alcohol is a
lot stronger here. I'm not gonna lie stronger and like actually made you feel
drunk yeah oh yeah, oh yeah and hungover. Okay. So that's that's
how I know it's real. I don't know you. My name is a
pocket, but on here, I'm techno. I don't look like a gnome
actually, and explain how I look. I basically, I don't know if
you know magic the Gathering, but I look like one of their angels,
just but fully like cyberpunk angel and and just anything that can glow will glow
gold. But yeah, and I'm about four and a half foot tall instead
of okay you it's nice to meet all of you. I am I I
think I found I found something before we do this. Uh, but it
was nice to meet you. But uh, let me see, how do
we know? How do I who's the party leader? Do do any of
you know who the party leader is? I'm like looking like Coraline. There
is no party leader. Oh you just got to invite her then we just
got to invite her to our party. That's kind of cool. Do we
vote on it? I guess we probably do you have anull too? Yeah?
What? Okay? Paid this by myself. It was I we are
you? Are you? Okay? Yeah? You do know you can join
us because we're looking for we're looking for peb. Yeah character. Oh my
name's not Jack's Castler by the way, wrestler x castler. That's so cool.
So all my characters that oh oh still it's yeah whatever, that's that's
awesome. I'm really bad at role play names. My actually it was Jack's
Castle at first, and I accidentally added an R once and then it just
continued that way forever do you always add an or how many rs? Is
this one? It's just one R? Oh No, I meant to hit
enter once in a game and I hit R. I don't know how it
happened, and then I ended up with an extra letter in my name.
M okay anyway, well, yeah, welcome Jack's Castler. Do you accept
the party invitation from acepted Una? You would have also seen pop up basically
party invite Jack's Castler. I'm gonna open my eyes and go, who are
they adding to this party? Why? Why? Why are we inviting someone
new? And I'm gonna kind of stumble out of the bed and come out
of my room and just vaguely kind of motion to anyone that'll look at me.
Water, somebody there, just talking yourself in the room, the water,
Just just talking to myself. There's no one around, but every two
seconds I go water, water, And I'm gonna kind of like fumble vaguely
the direction that I remember hearing the noises go off into as I shall forever
remember them. They're just the noises. At this point, what state of
hangover you are where you're not completely no, I'm still like slightly tipsy,
and I'm pained to be alive, and I'm walking in the direction that I
last remember hearing noise coming from by the way, everybody that basically went to
sleep, which was everybody. You could have made your recovery roles, so
you have basically have up to four recovery rolls per day, and those regen
your stats so we can do them all. Yeah, if you haven't used
any yet. Yeah. So the only thing I see in that pop up
is Jack's castler has been added to the party. Uh, it's it's a
pop up that basically says, will you will you add Jax Castler to your
party? Okay, do the party work? Did you? Yeah? There
you see the pop up? Yeah, I got the pop up. I
hit except player that has not accepted the party invitation. Oh fucking maggot.
She's a sleep water Well, well, Mike, we're gonna get her water
anyway, all right, come back with us, Come come with us,
Okay, all soon. Null. If you all met any of the groups,
you're the only one. You're the only person we were all streaming this
together. That's like, we're really lucky to have had that. Like,
yeah, but I mean if you're here, that means that there's got to
be other streamers. That's where we were at actually thinking of heading to the
capitol that way. Maybe we figured that since this is kind of like an
MMO situation, most people headed the capitol, right, so we can find
the capital of the Kingdom of Gonneria or whatever, that maybe we could meet
other players there. Maybe there's other streamers, I think, but there's other
players too. Yeah, but we don't know where, right, so maybe
in the capitol some of them are maybe we've met some and they're just really
good at role play. I mean, have you been on role play servers
and mos? Some of those people get really I mean, I've been to
Moonguard, We've seen the stuff that goes on there. We've all seen gould
Tire. But if everybody else is kind of like how we are right now,
I feel like they would also maybe also be like how we are in
freaking out because it's just I mean, I I don't know, man,
I just got to believe that some people would love this. Yeah, there
are people that would just totally you know, is a part of me that
loves this? But oh my god, no, wait, I saw an
anime that was I've seen several animes actually that were like this, and uh
nol is there such thing as player versus player in this game? The man
not understood crap of the well, I don't think it recognizes us as players
anymore. I don't think we told you that. Can we kill each other?
No? Not it? Would you like to attempt to kill someone?
Not it? Please? Don't? No? No, no, no,
no, we don't. No. Hypothetically could I kill Commerson? Hypothetically?
I don't want to, but can I could? You could I don't know.
If you can't, I can. Yeah, how do you know?
Commerson? Come here? Let me try and stab you. I'm not afraid
to use it. I wouldn't do that, man, I'm just kidding you.
How do you know? How do you know I've been with other groups?
You killed him? No, I didn't wait you you found other people?
Yeah, guys, who's the who's the movie? Hey? Hey,
we're just gonna we were just gonna get you water. What are you doing
at a bed? I'm just trying to sleep in a cup. Getting this
pop up from NOL trying to ask me if somebody wanted to join us?
Can you excite that? Why? Why? Uh? Katie P. I'm
sorry I did to replace Nigga Katie. Yeah, I'm sorry. I have
a hangover and I'm just gonna run over to her and hugger. This makes
it easy. I just to click accept whenever you Katie, what's happening?
I don't know. It's not good, Katie? Or you're alone? Yeah,
I had this, I found this thing, or I have this thing,
or it's I don't think it works anymore. It was the stiffer to
find people I knew. Oh, I'm just gonna hit, except now that
I see it's Katie, you don't cipher. Yeah, it's like it fizzled.
I think it's just joined the party. That castler is a cheerful nano
who adjures the Leviathan? What is that? What that means? Like the
dark creatures at night? I can kind of control them. It seemed cool
at the time, it's not. Is it not cool anymore? Okay,
she didn't kill fine, I know it. She killed someone. I know.
Wait, Katie, have you been alone the whole time you've been playing?
Did you? Are we the first people you've seen. It's the coolest
thing I've heard all day. I found another group who which streamers were?
They just it was like a group they liked. Some kid won a lottery
and they got a bunch of extra for their friends. Oh okay, what
happened? I don't You don't have to tell if you don't want to.
I think it'd be good to know. I mean, accidents happened. If
something happened, you know, I didn't do anything. There's this guy he
like found us. He knew the guy, the leader. His name was
like Lightning Quick or something like that. And this guy showed up one day
and things got out of hand. They went on a quest. One of
them only came back. What lightning hand guy only came back. Now,
this guy named encrypt. Okay, I may have stolen this ciphers from him
and then I left the group. Do you think that holy they killed each
other or just really bad luck? The guy, the encrypt guy, was
yelling about how it's not real, it's all fake, it doesn't matter.
And they went out together on a quest and he told us that the boss
killed Lightning and when he up back, I saw lightning stuff in his bag.
Well, we better find encrypt or being very first, wait, where's
where's Peb? Peb's uh, well, she wasn't there. She left.
She has this note though it says she needed to leave, but but Noel
said and it acknowledges her existence still, So she she didn't die around somewhere,
but not with us. Why would she do that? She didn't die,
She just abandoned us. That's okay. She's a really rough evening,
Peb thing to do. So either it's a really rough evening and without mister
B, she's going a little you know, or maybe this guy found her.
I mean, everyone's going to handle it differently. She probably just needed
some time to herself, so maybe we should, like, I don't know
if we should go too far without her, but I mean we need to
move on. But if we go too far without her, then when we
find her, yeah maybe, yeah, maybe we finished our last quest,
this could be our new one. Yeah, I'm pb and devoid the crazy
psycho killer. Okay, but if there's a killer and those people that guy
took his the guy that dies gear, this lightning guy's gear, then this
is more like sort our online where we don't respond. Yeah, so we
need to not take on any dangerous quests that potentially could get us killed and
or glitched out of the system. How do we know where which quests are
going to do that to us? Though? Where do we go from here?
Anytime we see anythings in the ground that have holes, probably shouldn't go
towards them. Yeah, I love it, got it? Okay, that's
all that's all I got. I'm so obvious. But there's going to be
a lot of other things that we've probably never seen or can imagine before.
The Ninth World is a lot about what we don't realize or whatever see in
any other genre and that's kind of cool thing about it, but also a
little bit of a scary part of it. Well, we have a person
that controls the dark forces or something. Yeah, wait, so Mith,
you get the soul game and stuff. Where where do we go from here?
What should we do? What's our next best bet? Well? The
best part of a system that I know of is it's very uh, it's
very it's not hand holdly. There's no railroads at all, and there hasn't
ever really been any. The modules that are, the ones that I know
of, are very interpretive of those who read them. So it's you could
like in Dungeon and Dragons, you could just go from ab Ab, But
in this one, it's very much like up to you. They'll give you
a setting, kind of like what we saw earlier with Kepford. Maybe there
was a couple of things in there that were in the lore, but how
we reacted was how it's how it was told. So I don't we can
go anywhere, is what I'm trying to say. That I vote for the
capitol still, I think that that might be the safe What's that's a good
question for the townspeople. Which way to the capitol question? Katie or Jack's
is this guy gonna come looking for you? I don't know how he could
track me the middle of the night. Do you know what he was like?
Was he like a thief? For like a warrior or a healer?
Like? Do you know what he kind of like? Was he He's just
a big guy. He had like electric weapons, Katie? Yes? Do
you remember blocking out? Well? I was playing this for the stream and
I had Chat up and I was showing them all this stuff. I picked
fay More and then something happened and Chat was gone. I tried taking off
the headset and I couldn't. I came here from fay More. Yeah,
okay, that's far. How did you? I mean we got like thirty
miles you got across We had a travel nine thousand. I don't know.
Did you have a travel bubble too. I've just been walking. I was
following this thing that's the glowy thing. Yeah, it doesn't glow anymore though.
Just to chime in, there would have been a sort of tearing sound
and you when you activated divide the device it would have lit up. It
would have been a hearing sound and you would have started walking and then you
were suddenly in care forward. Okay, yeah, I activated this thing.
I got away from the other group, and then it was like the like
a split in front of me, and I walked through it. And there's
a little waste from you guys, but not that far. I don't think
I walked. I mean that is a far away. I don't I didn't
walk that far though. Oh okay, it's like portal magic, that thing
like teleported you. Oh my pocket can do that. That's I can only
go one hundred of one hundred. Let me look at this thing real quick.
One hundred is it meters or miles or or I don't I don't know
who knows, but I can I can't go that far. I can't go
like I mean, that's a whole nother huntree. I guess we should probably
because we're like on the coast, maybe we should go towards the coast to
avoid these guys, you know, because if they're looking and they get a
cipher that can track it was a very powerful cipher. Yeah, that would
be a very I mean, it's like a level six. I still agree
with the capital. We should just go. Let's just go to the cat.
Let's go ask someone we gotta go. Let's go ask like the bartender
or whatever from last night. Yeah, Harris is welcome. Oh yeah,
the elder maybe, yeah, the elder. That's a good one. He
might have helped Peb get out of the town if she did. Oh yeah,
so I've seen something. Maybe nos. I mean everyone's got to talk
to him. Yeah. Yeah, let's go there. And I just I
I turned to like, just walk out. I'll follow. However it starts
walking. Look, where are you headed? To the elder? Okay,
to Harrish, Yeah, okay, you go to h Harrish's house. Probably
be outside. He probably has like a garden that he'd be tending outside.
It's it's a pretty nice day out too. It's like fairly sunny out,
only a few clouds here and there. And uh, he greets you,
you know, as soon as you as soon as your approach, and he
says, ah the heroes of cap Forard, Hello, so good to see
you. How are you feeling, are you still are you still a little
under the weather? Oh, my goodness, so loud? Your alcohol is
great. Yeah, there's some good beers. Yeah. I was tasty and
strong and it was let me just out. But that's not why we're here.
Sorry, Yes, we had a question for you. Actually we're did
you see our friends? We're kind of looking for her. Oh no,
I haven't seen her since she retired. I thought it would be the case.
Well, we thought maybe going and taking a visit to the capital might
help. Oh do I know? Yeah? Yeah, no, she she
left us a note. What did the notes say? Again? Sorry,
oric, It's okay, I don't know. If I don't know, characters
don't matter. Yeah, the she said that she just couldn't. She just
said she had to leave. She just left us. She just left us
a note and left. It's rather sudden. Would you like me to ask
around? Maybe so month saw something? Yes, Oh that would be perfect.
I mean we could stick around one more day. No harm, all
right, yes there was. I've seen a few people getting ready for the
day. They look up. No offense meant but a bit like you,
okay, a bit a bit. Well, they enjoyed themselves very very much
last night, and you you weren't the only ones celebrating. Excuse me,
uh, moment moment. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be too loud.
You never here for a moment, all right, It's more than some.
That's hurting me right now, but I'm fine. You can see like
one of the one of the like pretty athletic looking, uh people, obviously
some kind of woodcutter or something not blinded comes over. They have the the
the oral implants and they well, I guess it would be it's like cochlear
implants, I think. But the comes over. He looks like he's in
very good shape. And you probably saw him at the bar last night.
He's he's got like one eye partially closed. He definitely looks like he's he's
still just a little bit drunk. And he'll, uh, he'll come over
and he says, uh, yes, harrish, But do you a good
day? He nods to all of you and he says, what can I
do for you? Harrish? Yes. They were mentioning not being able to
see their friend, the other the other woman that was with them, Coralai
was her name. Yes, ye, yes, Ju. Do you remember
Coralai? Uh? Yeah, yeah, I know. I know. What
was the problem was she They said that she had unexpectedly left. Did you
happen to see her leave? Uh? I'm sorry. I did a bit
of drinking last night with the with the group. You got to learn to
drink, man. Remember when I drank you remember when we were doing that
drinking race. He just looks at you and says, no, yeah,
you say that happened. It happened. Though. What did she look like?
She had like a T shirt on that showed like the insides of her
she had I remember now, I remember she was leaving with her friend?
Ah? Uh? Which which I saw her when I was getting up this
morning. Who did she leave? Was? Well, she left on the
she left on the ship. But who was she with? What? Which?
Which friend? I didn't get a look. I didn't get a good
look at his face. His face, Okay, I think it was a
hymn, Paul, I'm sure going. Do you know where the ship was
headache a ship? Yes, it was one of the one of the trade
ships that arrived last night during the party. Their ship No, no left
left by boat. I think it was. I think it was headed to
the city of Bridges. Oh, that's capital. Yes, the city Bridges
is the capital. Why the funk would she go without us? Is the
next trade ship? Do we have to go? Uh? They were picking
up some of the some of the lumber. How often is that trade route,
like, is there, well, there be one today or should we
start walking walking to the city of Bridges. I don't know, I don't
have any Yeah, well it's it's about well a week or so of travel,
So when's the next when's the next ship? Uh? I think we
have another trade ship coming in two days. It's not bad. I mean
we could just drink until then. Right then it's the week in two days.
I mean, if she could be gone, why don't we take the
gallon? Can we do that? The gallon? Yeah, we borrowed some
of your gallon last night. Well, I I don't run the stables,
but I mean that's not sorry, how I think the question was what if
we were to take the gallon? How long would that take? Do you
know? Oh? Uh well, I'm not exactly an expert rider. Okay,
perhaps she could. Perhaps she could speak with Lazin, he's in charge
of the stable. If a ship comes in two days, that's not I
mean, we'll be well on our way, and I mean that's not that
long to wait. If she's going to the capitol, that's got to be
a safer area to go. But then she's two days ahead of us.
She could just be stopping off of the Capitol before moving somewhere else, and
then we'll lose her. No matter what, we're not going to get there.
We're not going to get there any sooner. I feel like, whether
it takes a week, it takes a few days or whatever, she's going
to be ahead of us no matter what. And I imagine she's going to
look for answers in the Capitol or other players, like we were thinking go
to the city to find other players. Maybe that's what she's thinking. Maybe
she's going to go there to try and find people. Yea, and what
do you said? There was a party here? So there were other Oh
I just remembered. I'm saying there are the people last night? I remember
because because of what, Yeah, lots of parties last night. Everyone was
partying. Why would she just leave? That seems so out of character.
I don't feel good about this week. I mean to be who's this other
person? Everyone's going to handle this differently, the situation that we're in,
and I she really wants to be home, and this is she's not just
not taking it as well. Yeah, but she could have told us she
wasn't taking it well. I want to know who this other person she left
with is rich. How long is the trade route from from Kepford to the
city of Bridges, Oh, my ship probably two days? Really wow?
Okay, so four days or seven days? Is there anybody that'll make the
trip faster? Well, I suppose if you had some sort of airship.
Does anybody in town have an airship? May service make a difficulty five intellect
jack based on perception? O Leary? Mhmm yeah, hmhm. There is
uh, there's one. Oh, there's there's one. Uh I think in
town. Well, it's not really a ship per se. He he looks
towards he looks towards Harrish and he says, and Sulia is in town.
Oh? And Sulia, yes, one of the and Goolan Knights. Mhm.
I don't know if she would be partial to taking on passengers on her
she drake, however, and Sulia, do you know where we can find
her? She usually stays on the edge of town. What does she ride
on? She rides on a z drake as a z drake, not a
she drake. What is a z drake? A z drake? They look
at each other, confused. You've never seen one? Maybe you put there
might just be a different word for it. Maybe dragon is it? I'm
thinking dragons dragon? We can we can discuss this later. It's okay,
we we know what it is. He's he was sheltered before us. We'll
go talk to her and see what she says. Otherwise, as we might
be stuck with the ship. You sat on the edge of town. Is
where we can find her? Which direction? Which way should she's probably you
see that house on the hill there. Huh. She usually rents a room
when she's in town. Thank you very much. And before we leave to
do that, do you have a bathroom? My kid? Us? Yes?
Which? Which? Which? Which way is that? He sort of
like he points, there's like a there's like an outhouse basically across the way.
No, no, not not not using that one. Thank you.
Let's head out O use an outhouse? Really? I will how uh you
know, I'll find my own spots vomiting. I don't want to vomit,
okay, would be the worst. Yeah, maybe just keep walking, Okay,
I know because it is what is it called a z z drake?
Would I know what a z drake is? Please make an intellect check.
All of you can make this role. This is a difficulty five intellect check
in regards to beasts. Could Math have advantage because he loved the system?
Or what about understanding not recognizing? Would I know because of Laura? Could
I roll my skill? Nope? Okay, Unfortunately, Jack's your skill lore
of flesh eating non humanoids. Yeah, actually might apply? Hang on god?
Yeah? Five? Oh the difficulty is five. I did listen,
I'm still hungover. Okay, I just I'm trying. Uh, I'm not
really Yeah? Can I take the five? Unfortunately, Jack's your skill will
not come into play technome. You have rolled a three. Oh, Jacks,
you have rolled a thirteen. Actually is that your second role? Wait?
Yeah, I screwed up because I did a difficulty of three on the
first one. Yes, oh, all Rick rolled a sixteen. Hm.
When you start to think about it, Jack's all Rick, the image of
a Z drake pops into your head, and I will show you this.
It's a cyberpunk dragon, cyberpunk dragon, cyberpunk dragon. You should see.
You should see your hand out now where the Z drake? Oh? I
love it. That's cheap. So if I'm not mistaken, it's gonna look
like a big kind of white pterodactyl. M hmm, it's got like a
shark fin head. What you've seen them too, Yeah, pterodactyl shark fin
I thought it was a dragon dragon A chip or drank and dragon are two
different things. By the way, you guys need to get your lure together.
Okay, first of all, different things like a dragons are like dragon.
They're like them, but they aren't. But they're basically dragons, but
they're not. We could get in I could do this all day. We
should get into this, but maybe during travel in that during on the way
to her house. Right, what you said, this is like a pterodactyl.
So this this whole system has it all wrong anyway, So we got
to find a giant white pterodactyl shark fin head. Well I don't I were
He pointed us in the direction of that house up there. Yeah, there
find her. I think he said that she rides one of those things that
maybe we can hitch a ride on it. So we're going to have these
two talk to her because they know about the z drake and the silver tongue,
the hungover silver tongue. Go on ahead and work. She should Yeah,
I think she should talk about it. We just I know about it.
Doesn't mean I could convince her, but I should let you all know
that the night that she is she could be very tell us about something.
So might's try not to drop any weird like lore about where we are or
what we or anything like, oh, we're part of a party or blah
blah blah. She may think we're like heathens or something. We think that
we should probably have some sort of alibi from where we are from. So
Commerson shouldn't talk Roger, where are we from? I'm really good at making
friends in this game. I'm from the forest. No, that's not gonna
fly. Yeah, you start to think about these z drakes some more.
You know that z Drakes tend to They tend to have riders that they bond
with, specifically the Angolan Knights. They are sort of like very noble creatures
and they have some They're very intelligent, but they can't speak, and they
are able to read minds. Oh oh god, oh I don't know that
in personal So we just tell them where we grew up on the river.
That's it. We just grew up on the river. We should Why don't
we say we grew up in the capitol and we just need to get back
there. We could do that, but when when we start making up weird
terms and people start questioning their sanity about what we're saying, right, we
need to be able to back it up. Like when we said dragon earlier
and they went, what's that we need to like? Oh, that's just
a blank word for drake ha ha. I don't know. I was just
thinking, like, maybe make up. Why don't we have you talk since
you know this world very well? I don't know I could, but I
know the world. But but it's it. But what Jack said, she
makes friends. Well mm hmmm, so if you make friends, well then
maybe you and and Una can talk and the rest of us just barely talk.
Yes, yeah, agreed. And not jay Yeah, we just hang
back and I don't know, just not talk or something. Yeah yeah no,
no, dab, that's not that's where we're from. We're from dab
dab dab. Wow, Okay we're from it's such a foreign concept. We
could just say we're from dab from We love it, love it, let's
do it now? Perfect. Yeah. Therefore, if Jaye starts stamping,
we haven't a reason why he's doing it. It's a salute or something.
It's like a cultural thing. We're from. Okay, perfect dab and taymore
Graggan is just dabbing for Drake. Sorry, I'm just practicing the lines.
I think, let's go find a bathroom in some water. Please, we
have to ride on this thing. Maybe, like let's figure that out one
swire. We haven't even matter yet. Yeah, let's just go. Let's
just go. You're just worry about everything. But but Jack Jackson, No,
no, they're talking let's go, got it, go team, go,
put our hands in you want to do it. Yeah, let's do
it. And on three uh we say dab quack quack, Oh okay three
two one dad, yeah boy, we were saying. We all said,
I just like, I just like the idea that we're probably still in front
of the Irish Prish Parrish a moment. Are just kind of like looking at
each other, like they drank quite a bit last night. I can't remember
her. I drank a lot of myself. It was it was a thing
we it was like a skit we were doing last night where we just so
I was trying to remind everybody. They kept making strange references last night,
like what I don't know. They said something about players. I don't really
remember. As they're talking, I walk up and I put my hand.
I reach up and put my hand on Harrish's shoulder and I'm like, thanks
so much, old man, and I just walked towards the house. Okay,
thank you. And that's a good place for us to take a break.
We're gonna go on a dragon. It's a good place. It's a
good place for us to take a break. I hope everybody's enjoying things so
far. Chat you can d r P for a moment, for a minute

Simulacrum. Welcome back everybody to Table Stories Simulacrum. I've instructed the players to
take their headsets off because I need to talk to you chat for a moment.
There were a lot of questions going on in chat in regards to what
was going on with Pebe's stream. You did see what happened to Peb.
You definitely saw what happened to Peeb because it was very jarring. There were
I mean, it was the kind of thing where the players went to sleep.
If you were on Peebee's stream, she would have been pretty upset.
She would have been crying, and she was very upset that she didn't try
to talk to her husband after the chat communication happened. So she did retreat
sort of back to her house that she was staying in to rest, and
she was very upset. She was crying, and it took her a while
to realize or acknowledge the possibility that chat was viewers are still watching her.
My guess is there's a bit of privacy that happens when people are like washing
themselves or using the bathroom or anything along those lines. But you probably would
still catch this kind of moment, and it was upsetting, to say the
least. She kind of let down the facade and she was very upset.
You saw her go to sleep after a while. She probably took a look
outside to see what was going on, saw the party and whatnot, and
probably thought about it for a bit, considered going out and joy everybody,
but she just decided against it and kind of went to sleep. Very early
in the morning. You would have seen someone enter her room quietly, probably
just before dawn. She would have woke up with a start, A sort
of like gruff looking person would have been putting a hand over her mouth.
You would see a weapon, a blade of some kind, and he would
be threatening her. If you make one sound, I promise you this will
be the last time that you make any sound. I know who you are.
I know who you are. You're part of those table story assholes.
I know who you are. You banned me in chat. You remember me?
Huh? You fucking remember me? I bet you remember me now,
huh. He looks very scared. She's sort of shaking her head. He's
trying to sort of start to talk, try to say something, and he
says, here's what we're gonna do. You're gonna come with me or I'm
gonna find out what happens in this game when you kill somebody. I won
the lottery, isn't it great? Now I'm gonna take my hand away from
your mouth, and if you say a goddamn word, I promise you it
will be your last. She kind of nods her head, obviously very scared,
and she says okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay,
okay. Look look, look just just take it easy, okay,
and he says, shut up. She's starting to cry. You're gonna come
with me, and she starts crying harder. Shut up. You're gonna come
with me, She starts, like gently shaking her head. You're going to
come with me, yes, nod your head. Yes, She nods her
head slowly. You're gonna come with me. We're gonna get on this ship,
and we're gonna get away from your friends. Yeah, I saw them.
I don't know who they are, but I heard your name. I
remember you. What's your name? My name? Listen? The only thing
that matters here in this game? Does it even feel like a game anymore?
I can feel things. Look, he holds his hand up and you
can see he's got cuts all over his hand. I can feel all of
these. This isn't a game. This is like all those anime. This
shit is real. If I stick you with this sword You're going to die
and nobody can stop me. You can't stop me. This is what my
character does. I murder people. It's what I do. Sounded fun when
I picked up the character. But you can call me fang. Sounds cool,
doesn't it. Get up? Get your shit, start writing a note,
and we skip back to the players. The rest of you, the
rest of you are going to uh head on over to the house that you
saw well that that harrish and moment pointed out to you. Outside you can
see basically uh eating some probably some meat, sort of uh resting like on
its haunches. It's pretty fucking big. Uh. You see a white creature
with a sort of like massive wings and a long tail and a fin on
its head sort of sitting outside and may whoa, Oh my gosh. I
should have probably said it was holy ship. That's oh yeah, that makes
a lot more sense. What's a lukiah? Oh? I never played Pokemon
generation. I mention this around them. Yeah, we won't. It's okay,
we're from depth. That's true. Actually it's fucking terrifying. Nah,
that's a lugia. It's it's harmony right there. That reminds me of is
like if the Leviathan from some Nautica could fly and was white. I want
to mention that it's eating meat, so let's not scare it too much,
because then it could be eating us. Do you think it'll get mad if
we try and rock like walk past? It probably knows exactly what we're thinking.
Oh, I didn't tell you it can read minds, what reads mine?
So we should all pick a song and sing it in our head over
and over. Oh, let's do the same song and sing together that this
is a song that never Yes, it goes on ahead, but we can't
do it in case we want to clip this on our YouTube later, because
then it'll be copyrighted. Oh okay, that one's not copyright. Can't be
copyright. But if we listen, if we get out of this alive,
then we need to make content out of it somehow, and I don't want
to get you know, muted on the bog. I feel like that song
has to be public domain. Yeah, a song that never ends. Come
on, stop thinking about content, because that thing is going to start getting
very confused about the meta. Yeah, why are you thinking about content when
we're sinking about what a great continent we're on guys. Right, Yes,
what a great It doesn't know. I'm still like a little drunk career yesterday.
It doesn't know. What are you talking about? Are you guys still
like walking towards it or did you stop? I think I feel like the
group would have probably stopped after saying oh, it's Lucia, yeah, in
shock. I'm only walking forward if they did, or standing standing still.
Yeah, Okay, you can see. I mean it's it's eating like a
hunk of meat. You know, it's kind of got like it's the wings
are folded in and it's got its little little claws sort of part of the
way up the joint of the wing, and it's just kind of like hovering
all yeah, kind of, and it's just you can see it's like throwing
the meat up in the air, and it's like a hippogriff from Harry Potter.
Remember how Grid used to like leave them out front, totally friendly Harry
Potter. I'm kidding. Yeah, maybe we bow, Maybe it'll there you
go there to just like show it respect. I don't know what a Lukia
does when you try and bow right, Harry respectfully. That might be careful
of the references. Yeah, We should probably not be trying to compare it
to stuff right now and just take it for what it is. Otherwise it's
I love, I think it's great. Look at this thing, how beautiful?
Get this sea drake? It's so big? And should we try and
meet its mom? Should? I'm sorry, I was, I was waiting
for you. It has a mom walk well the the what was I don't
remember? You mean a lady. Yeah that's not a mom. But yeah,
we should try to meet and swing night and Cohen night. Yeah,
you guys better get this together. Uh, miss drunk pirate and Jack's I'm
good. Oh you're talking about and if you have brought me here? No?
Oh no, why now that you mentioned it, I am very hungry.
I was saying we could bring it a gift bird think about eating vegetables.
Don't because if you think, what if it thinks you're we going to
take its meat? Anyway, we should probably walk up slowly away from it.
I was just scared to talk to your mom, little book mom,
and I'm gonna start walking towards the front door. She's gonna get us killed
just trying to talk to your mom. Oh my god, I'm gonna get
us killed. Oh kay, you're gonna shut the front doors. What you're
talking about. That thing is fucking terrifying. Ship. Think of think of
happy thoughts, think of think of like your your your cat back home.
Jay, stop making noises. That was that thing. One time I fed
a camel at a fair. I was in New England. Camels shouldn't be
in New England. And it scared the crap out of me. And I'm
feeling that exact feeling right now. Didn't make that same noise. No,
it didn't make that same noise, but it was something that was so harmless.
And then this happened, and then I got so scared. We know,
we're just talking too much. I'm just gonna walk up behind uh ownA
lock, just gonna knock on the door. Yeah, I've scampered up behind
her. I'm gonna stay outside and watch this beautiful thing. Dared you mean?
Yeah, you knock on the door and you hear somebody like walking up
to the door. This is kind of like a smaller, thinner building.
It's a bit more like a like three stories or so, but it's like
tall and thin. It's almost like a tower, and it's kind of on
the edge of town, like it might have served as some kind of watch
tower or something in the past, and it's been repurposed into a home of
sorts. And the door opens like like abruptly, and in the doorway you
see this person standing in armor. They kind of are adjusting their armor,
and they say, yes, what is it? Are you the fabled night
seeker on Sulia? I am wow. It is a pleasure to make your
acquaintance. We have traveled to this town, uh in service of stopping the
horrible sound that has been plaguing this area for quite some time now. Uh,
And now that we have completed this task, we are looking for safe
passage out of the area. And uh, Hamish where we're trying to get
to a city of bridges? And was what's his name? Hamish? Was
that his name? What was his name? And Harrish Harrish? Uh so
enamored by our accomplishments, did recommend you to us to you provide safe passage
to city of Bridges if you are amenable to such a proposition? H what
say you? Did I do it? Did I do? Did I think?
A difficulty six intellect check in regards to persuasion? Does that count?
Under all social interactional. Yes it does. And you said difficulty six right
cool? Correct, just checking? Thank you, we're doing a really good
role player, Jax Barrow right now. Oh my god, I was trying
so hard. Thank you so much. Did I do it? No?
Is that good? Was that good? You have rolled a four? Cool?
Cool? Do I look like some quarks some kind of transport? Do
you? I am a night seeker? Hi, night seeker? She Drake
would do no such thing. It is my friend. It is not public
transport short, no, and I do understand that my hand around UNA's mouth.
We are not public, though, is the thing that I feel?
Okay? And I I like nudge Jacks up. It is wonderful to meet
you. And you have a beautiful creature we would respect. Is it him
or her? She sort of like turns her head towards you, and she
says, why do you care? I love animals and creatures. She's a
beautiful she'd great, Drake. What is its name? She's looking you all
up and down pretty thoroughly. She doesn't seem to be responding. Please make
a difficulty six intellect check in regards to meeting someone new. All of us
this is in regards to Jack's all, would my making friends apply correct?
You got this? Damn you don't have this. You have rolled a ten?
Of course? What are you doing here? We really just need to
get to City of Bridges and that's it. Uh, you were the fastest
way for us to get there, honestly, because one of our friends has
gone missing and we think she may have been abducted on a ship on its
way to city. A she drake. I'm sorry, I'm butchering this pronunciation,
but it's it's like she drake I think is moving closer towards the group.
It stopped eating. Oh boy, oh boy, it's in the back
us to myth and I, you would definitely hear that treek. I mean
it probably Hi, we don't, we're not doing anything. I'm I'm telling
the truth. Our friends. It was a woman. She went missing.
She's she's not she's not capable of being on her own, and we believe
a man and may have taken her, and we want to be able to
follow in her tracks quickly. But we have to wait two days for ship,
or we have to make a week long trek by foot, and it's
just by then. I don't know what could possibly happen to her. We
have no idea where she's at. And Harrish mentioned you. He said that
it was you're very noble and very wise, So that's why we That's why
we came here, just hoping. I mean, obviously if you say no,
then that is okay. We are willing to go, but that's why
we're here, so we're just hoping. Yes, that's really it. Please
make an intellect check in regards to persuasion technolm. The difficulty is six.
However you have one asset. Yeah, you have rolled at fourteen. We're
not good at role play. Why did we pick a role play server that
has nothing to do with me? I am sorry that you are having difficulties,
but as I said, my she Drake is not a transport for anyone
but myself. Okay, yep, that is. Do you know any way
that we could get there quicker? Maybe anyone like a ship that you know
about, or there is a port? Why don't you check there? It's
what if I carved you your beautiful creature into some wood and then you could
Kate take your friend with you wherever you go, and in exchange for giving
us a ride, cove me Morocco. She wishes to carve us Marco.
That's that's its name. I thought it was a good idea Oroco. What
happened? But do you not want are the carving? I do not desire
a coving. I have much greater plans. There are other tasks that drive
the Angolan Knights, like what. I'm sorry. I've never met an Angolan
night before, so I honestly this is an honor. So I really don't
know what you do. I have never met an Angolan knight. Yeah.
We come from a very small small town, and let's just say we haven't.
We haven't met a lot. As you can tell. My friend here,
she's she's a little drunk and uh and she's a very really really starstruck.
Aren't you? Aren't you? Una? I just did not think I
would ever get to me and I'm cool to night and I just I got
nervous. I'm very sorry. I can move this. I would not move
quickly if I were you. I don't want to die, Okay, I
won Moro. Cool does not seem to agree with what you say a word?
Uh wait, Jay, you really want to die? No? I
said, I don't want to die, but they don't agree. I believe
cool suggesting. Mm hmm. What you had said before seems to be a
lie. Morocco. We're going to lead your minds Okay, all right?
I said maybe you should just cut our losses now and get going. I
don't think they're gonna help us. The Angolan Knights have a mission. Hm.
Hey, we're good at missions, aren't we their mission? We get
things done. I mean we just helped this town, cap Ford. You
know there is humanity has reclaimed this world. We lost our dominion over this
place, but we have regained it, and it is the Angoula Knight's job
to make sure that we keep it. We stop all creatures and people that
are changed and are no longer human. Are you human? I mean yeah,
absolutely, We're as human as they come. Like the way she looks
at you makes you question yourself, doesn't it. I feel like you'd know
by now? You know? Are you human? Okay? All right?
Morocco makes no noise, and Sulia seems a little confused. Oh what are
you human? Yes, she's hungover Roco. The she drake sort of uh
turns its head, starts like turning its head. I want to make my
way over the frist. It starts like cleaning itself a little bit and starts
to like it's cleaning its wings. If you've ever seen the thing that like
bats do where they sort of like clean their wings, it's kind of doing
that. Mhmm. You just now realize that she was starting to draw her
sword and she puts it. She like puts it back into the sheath,
and she says, leave me be okay, Yeah, we got it.
Thank you for your time, ma'am, have a good one. Mind a
fight spoke for a second. Yeah, we'll leave you to it, and
goes, good luck, and I'm just gonna walk back to where Jay is.
She sighs, and she says, what is it. I know you
have a mission, it is your duty, and I know you have a
very strong bond with this beautiful creature. Though I am both terrified and stunned
by its beauty, we also have a bond with our friend. Something has
happened last night and that bond has been broken, and we want to get
it back. You don't know where she went. She's scared, she's lost,
and someone else has taken her. If someone wants to ever take this
creature Morocco. What did you you say, Morocco? Someone who was ever
to take Morocco from you? Would you be able to continue your duty or
would you have to stop everything and go find Morocco. You can see like
her jaw tenses. Please make an intellect check based on persuasion. The difficulty
is six, and you have one asset. I will spend some effort.
Okay, difficulty is six two years four. Hold on, I lost the
there it is I used. I used to effort, and I have that
one asset I advanced to have to. You have ruled a fourteen with two
effort from your advancement. This is a success. I'm not lost Morocco.
You can be damned sure that I would find her again, and I don't
doubt that. I'm not asking to transport all of us, and I'm just
asking for maybe for you to help us in finding our as cheesy as it
sounds, our monocle, even if it is you just fly over there and
take a look and scout. I don't know if we could all fit on
the back of her, but that would be awesome. And that is a
word that you've probably never heard. That would be really great. Tell me
what happened. Sure, So in Kemfort there was the sound, so we
went and us and our friend I went to see if we can take care
of it, and we did, which was great. But in the events,
our friend Coralie her name, I guess, it was just a lot.
The new area, the seeing everything of what we had to deal with.
It was a lot of new man Era took a lot out of her,
both emotionally and very physically, so she took the night to rest.
This morning she was gone and we went to check on her and there was
a note that said she had to leave. But we were told that she
left with someone, and we don't know this someone, and we're very close
to Coralai to say she went to have some fun, Yeah, maybe take
her mind off of things. You see her and I point to Katie's character
see them. Of course, they came in last night with a pretty scary
story. Someone who's harming some people as she escaped from them, and we're
worried that person could probably be who took our friend Corlai. The estate that
she was in last night was a very emotional one and like I said,
very tiring. And who's to say what in manipulation or what scare tactics or
what could have led her to leave in such an abrupt way with just leaving
us a note which would never happen. We've been traveling a while together,
a long time. I just don't it's I find it hard to believe that
she's safe. And we're all very worried, that's all. What exactly am
I supposed to do? You're the only one that could get to this the
City of Bridges fast. I mean, if you if you were to find
it in your chivalric duty or or whatever. I'm sorry to say whatever,
but you know, and like to help us just to fly over to the
City of Bridges, maybe ask around or take us there, that would be
amazing. But I don't know how hard that is, And I don't know.
If morocco islets carry you, that's okay. But if it's just you,
that's all right too. We could start making our way there, and
if you would like, we could meet you on the way back, or
you can just fly back. We'll tell you what path will take or or
however. We're just very worried, and I know this is a lot,
but like I said, it's either this or we wait two days for a
trade ship, and then at that point she could be gone forever. Sorry
to put all this pressure on you, and I understand if you can't or
there's something else you have to do. Well, you're cool. What do
you think my Rocco unfurls her wings and sort of arches her head back and
sort of like leans down and launches up into the air and starts to flap
her wings. Sorry, I don't think book collects as much. I don't
know. What did you do, Jay, I didn't know anything. What
are you thinking about? Guys? Guys? Guy? Oh, okay,
okay, Why Rocco seems to wish to stretch her wings. We will go
to the City of Bridges. We will ask about this, Corralie. I
do not know what we can do, but we will ask cal that's all.
That's all, that's all we need. I guess that's all I ask
that. Thank you, that's more than enough. Thank you, thanks for
listening in, Thank you, thank you. I don't know what else to
say. Thanks, thank you, thanks, thank thank you. You had
better leave. Morocco still has not finished our breakfast. I understand, thank
you. Look get out of here. Oh shit, you actually did that.
Wait, so what's the plan? Are we meeting back up with her?
I told I told her, we'll start heading west and then she could
just find us. She'll see us from above. Okay, start walking and
hopefully we'll we'll see her on the way. Yeah, yeah, okay,
Wow if we if we walk at seven days though it's four days, if
we just wait for the boat, wouldn't that make more sense? Yeah?
But I don't wanna. I don't wanna. I don't want to do her,
have her do more work by flying out there and then flying to the
water and then looking back. She's already doing so much. If it won't
take us that many days if we take the gallon right? Sorry? Sorry?
What does your friend look like? Oh? That would hope? Oh
no, I look at the party, very worried. Can't remember. Did
she look like peebee? She had like one one? Oh? Yeah,
wait yep? You know, maybe the description of the person we think may
have taken her, might he pry just a case like yeah, uh Jax,
what did that person look like? You guys don't remember what she looked
like? Well, you know, maybe what does the person that we think
may have taken her look like? Let's start with that. It was a
man, yeah, you know as a man that took her and start rifling
through my bag. Oh uh, what was the dude the dude you ditched
Jax? What did he look like? Which one of you was with?
Pebe the most? Uh Uh, I'm saying, you can't even describe your
friend. I have a bad memory a lot last night. I didn't have
a hungover memory. Got a T shirt that has like I'm sorry, she
got like a like a like a she's wearing like a T shirt that has
like it's got the inner workings of what like a human and stuff. She's
really into that stuff. It's really kind of but that's a stomachishing thing that
she's got. She's also she's got a whole lot of mechanical things as well,
like on her back and things. She likes technology. She loves technology.
Actually, I see her near like a lot like a like a I
would actually look if near a like a cipher shop. She loves tinkering as
well as probably but yeah, that distinguishing thing is probably going to be the
shirt. I've never seen anything like it, all right. She also has
a like a mechanical light bow on her back. But the it's it's in
pieces, so it's gonna be like two arms and then like a piece of
tubing. That's kind of that's what she'll have. So that'll be on her
back and then like band that T shirt short, her hair about to her
shoulder length? Other was there hair? I can't even remember. Man,
you didn't even drink yesterday. No, imagine shows how out of it we
are, like crazy. I think she said that she always has red haired
characters. Yeah, jas, Yeah, I'm going to lower my voice to
Jay. I have memory lenses? What the fuck are those? Put them
on? Yeah? I mean a decipher and I think it's done after this,
But you put these on and then you can remember stuff. I'm not.
I'm not good with Newman era. I don't think my character can do
that at all. I think that's that's myth. That's all work. That's
all or or TV. Last time I could to cipher, I lost on
my ciphers. You do it, just storry, I have one of us
to just do it now, you know, okay? Fine? Sure,
how do I what do I do to? I just it's really weird Newmanara
last night, Like I said it was, it was a lot. It's
really it's really hard for us to describe our friend. Yeah. Wait,
wait, wait wait wait, hold on. I don't know much about these.
All I know is that they're called memory lenses. Oh well, that's
that's probably enough a description, right, were we good? I think that's
probably good. You need anything else? Yeah, listen not, I'm not
gonna add that. I'm sure the light bulb, the red hair length hair
T shirt, I'm going to grab the lenses and and and put them on.
Yeah. I was putting them back in my back, so you probably
grabbed them for me. Yeah. I just was like fine, and I
don't well, I put it to my face. I don't know if that's
worse. No, how do I do this? I don't know I did.
I haven't used a cipher yet. I gave mine to you know,
I gave mine to Ulrich and he broke it. So I've never used one
of these. Please make a difficulty for intellect check in regards to understanding new
min era. Okay, nobody, do you have an inability in this?
Please roll that skill. I'll be kidding me. My roles today are great.
They're just great sarcasm. You roll the seven, You don't understand how
to use these. We can ask somebody when we get to the city.
You know, it would have been great to have her here. She would
have understood this. Jacks. You understand how to do them? I do.
They're goggles and basically, you know jacks that they allow the wearer to
mentally record everything that they see for thirty seconds per cipher level. Mm hm
oh okay, I think I misremembered what they're for. Maybe we shouldn't use
them. Yeah, okay, it seemed like you guys didn't know how what
she looks like? Is that fine? I know that. Yeah, we're
good. We're good. But let's let's fuck, let's get out of here.
Yeah, I don't. We gotta. We got a message Katie that
she left our group and I haven't been able to remember anything about her since.
So at all, I haven't remembered anything. So here take this and
I slowly make my way over there, and I give her the note.
That is her handwriting. Nice, So I guess just ask around with that.
I hope that's enough information. And this what language is this? I
have never seen this before. This is it's the doodle she did. I'll
uh, what is this shape. That is I feel it's English. Was
on her this was this was this was on her bed, all right,
and I don't know. That's the only way we could probably identify if anybody
who could read that will probably be her because she all right, okay,
Iroco and myself needed to go to the City of Bridges anyway, we will
ask about your friends. Thank you, thank you. She closes there up
up over up in the sky. You can just kind of you're the she
drake, our wife. So there's I've got good news, I've got bad
news. What the good news is that she's helping us, which we all
know. Bad news is the reminder of what she said her duty is.
Yeah. No, when she asked about Pebe, I suddenly remembered we were
asking somebody who only loves humans lock for some of it. I didn't.
I didn't think that. Yeah. No, oh yes, hopefully the human
racist. But what I don't. Yeah, we may have she's a human
racist. But you did a great job. You focused on the shirt.
The shirt doesn't have anything to do with being human being not human. Good
cover up? Are you saying, wait a minute, wait a minute,
she's hecause yeah, oh yeah, we love you wait, what if she
finds her, Let's just keep moving and then and then I kind of awkwardly
have a pause. And then like when we're way out of distance and we
can stop the conversation again, we might have screwed her over. Yeah,
did we just did we send a hunter to find its favorite kind of prey?
Is that the kind of Ye? I don't know if this was a
good idea for us, now that I think about it, can we cancel
that order? No? No, there's no way we can. We's kind
of go anyway. She's gonna ask around anyway. It's gonna be so weird
if we go, Hey, never mind, we found her, and then
and then especially if she finds her and then she realizes that she said a
robot loving person or something and not the human, and then she's going to
know that we were the ones that tricked heard and then she's gonna come back
and try and kill us. Well, I mean, we just really have
to hope that she doesn't kill us. You can trust these instincts here.
Yeah, either way, maybe we should hurry, Yeah, yeah, definitely.
Oh boy, let's let's let's see if we can get some gallons and
let's see if we can uh try to double time it. There we and
at we said seven days, five days. Anyway, let's try it.
Rest when we really need to, let's do it. Okay, mm hmm.
You head off to the stables. That's a good place for us to
end today. Oh no, no man, Oh no, that went fast.
Yeah, that went really fast. Well we sorry, you mean we
got you kill anybody else? Not think about that until we were midway through
that conversation. As soon as she's like, I'll do and I was like,
oh, you kept saying like the insides, and I'm like, dude,
does your robot inside? Like what the like? She has a lot
of like cybernetic parts, she said. She said, she's almost android the
projection of the human insides, because that's what. Yeah, well, if
she has human insights, then we're good to go. I hopefully she just
focuses on the on the shirt. What a session. Good job, funk
man. That was that was some ship didn't die? That was good?
Uh what what? What? What does the rest points do? So the
recovery that you guys took, basically you get four rests a day if you
didn't take any rests before that. Basically you can make four recovery rolls sleeping
for the night and you regain that many stat pool points. Okay, so
if I got if I rolled a seven, yeah, then you can replenish
seven points worth of Okay, So like my intellect at seventeen, my pool's
nineteen, So I can't think I'm sorry, you're current. I got to
use the right terminology. Oh okay, okay, okay, so it goes
Yeah, it just goes back at recess. Cool if you go over,
I mean you just go to max. Yeah, okay, So we should
take those whenever we can, whenever we rest. Also, Myth is the
only one that did this. But uh, and and Pocket, you didn't
get this because you were glitched out last week, but now you you can
have it. You guys got four XP for completing that quest. Katie,
you weren't. You weren't a part of it, so you didn't get the
four XP. But you guys got four XP, so you can use that
for advancements. Myth took the opportunity to gain another effort, which will allow
him to basically try harder at something. So normally they took six away or
not, he took four away. Yeah, from persuade there. There's an
advancement handout on roll twenty if you go to the handouts area below the characters,
that says how you can spend your XP. Basically what happens is,
at bare minimum, you need sixteen XP to get to the next tier of
your character. You got four, which will buy you an advancement if you
want to. You don't have to spend it. You can keep it if
you want to save it for like player intrusions or whatever. But you got
four, and you can do a bunch of different things, like increasing your
capabilities, which we will give you four new points to a stat pools,
like, however you want to allocate those four points amongst stat pools. Or
you could do moving toward perfection, which would give you one to one of
your edges. You can get more effort like Myth did. You can get
some skills. There's some other options down at the bottom there, but yeah,
you can look over those and decide if you want to get one of
those. Otherwise everybody will gain We'll say everybody's going to gain probably two XP
for today, and we'll say that Myth, you and Katie will get an
additional two XP congratulations, good job. Everybody did a really great job this
session. Thanks everybody for watching. The show. Is very difficult for me
to do just in general. And I know I say that a lot,
but it is. It's very tough for me to get into the right headspace
to do all this stuff specifically, just because it's so meta and it's difficult.
Thank you, So I hope you enjoyed it. Please be aware we
are sponsored by Monty Cook Games. They were kind enough to talk with us
and we were like, hey, we're running this thing, and they're like,
oh my god, that's fantastic. Take all this stuff, do the
things, and they're pretty great. So if you wanna if you want to
learn more about New min Era, or if you want to just support a
really great system. I honestly, and again, this has nothing to do
with actually being sponsored by them. Really. I feel like if you know
me as a person, you know that I don't just say that I absolutely
love the system. It's really great. I feel like it's really intuitive and
easy. And if you want to do that, head on over to Mondicook
Game Store and you can pick yourself up some of their wonderful stuff. You
can pick up some great books. The core books are Discovery and Destiny,
and you're honestly good with either of those or both of them. If you
want to start playing your own games of New Minaria. There's lore. There's
character types and descriptors and folk i which will help you build your character.
There's wonderful lore about different places in the world with maps like amazing creatures and
stuff. It basically has like everything you need in either of these books.
Discovery has kind of like the original classes if you want to call them classes,
they're called types in this game. But it's really great stuff. It's
great reading, and I really love the system. If you want to,
head on over to the Monte Cook Games Store and on over there and use
the code table, Story or Pumpkinberry and get yourself five dollars off for each
of those coupons. If you're going to buy some books, go check it
out. Thank you to them, and let's go around the room. Let's
do some shout outs. Let's start with our special guests. Katie. I'm
sorry I left you in the dark for so long. Yeah, oh it's
fine. I got to learn a little bit more about the world, which
I needed to know, so I'm Katie Peter's place. I stream here on
Twitch. I do a lot of sci fi and horror. I'm on Nocturn
on Wednesdays. If you guys are around table Story, I play Brier over
there. But yeah, I'm excited to be be here. Thank you for
having me. I know I'm new in this world, but it was fun
to jump in and see creatures that I don't know. It's just cool.
It's a cool concept, so I'm excited that I was able to be a
part of it. Thank you so much, Katie Pocket. Hey, I
am pocket or Techno and uh. I stream video games and cosplay every day,
but mondays and I just moved and I'm really excited. So I also
have been putting together stuff on my stream, like the cap tree. That's
it. You can check me out a twitch dot tv slash Pocket p okk
et and I'm really excited to be here. This is the only role play
I do at the moment, but I've done a lot of stuff on me
JP's channel in the past, so this is a really good I really like
this system because it's kind of like very I don't know, I feel like
it's very like US player driven, which I really enjoy I really enjoy role
plays where we have to constantly just be thinking about what we're doing so and
not just like, okay, you're in combat, now just think about your
attacks. Ye, not that I might, I don't mind that, but
I really like just thinking constantly about my character and our actions. Yeah.
It gives you a lot of options, lets you think outside the box really
easily, and I'm always a big fan of that. So it also allows
us to get really sidetracked and waste a lot of time and be like,
oh no, let's be honest though, that's every role playing game, right,
Like how many it actually counts against you when we sit there debating,
we're actually sitting there and debating versus like what role should we should we go?
What role should we do? Versus here, it's like if we're doing
that, it's actually our character is doing that, which makes it all night.
That's why that whole like let's go on three things. It's like,
I just love the idea of all the other the townspeople being around and going
what the fuck I was having to move our conversation. Yeah, every single
time we talk near someone. Yeah, I really like that. Thank you?
Uh works? Hi I'm Nago Rix. I'm playing Nego or Rex playing
Una O'Leary. I am a full time streamer here on Switch, but I
won't be streaming for the next week because tomorrow morning I'm leaving for Germany for
games. Come. So if you go to my channel say hi to me
in the next week, I won't be there. Don't do that. Just
follow along on Twitter and Instagram, same user name, and come watch my
adventures in Germany while I travel. Yeah, thank you so much. Thank
you. My Thematic awesome, Hi everybody, I'm my Thematic. I play
Mythematic who plays al Rick Shiloh. Little hint there. I kind of knew
that this was probably going to be a bad idea, but I wanted to
do it anyway because I love conflict and I thought it'd be great. Okay,
this is cool and role playing games, but definitely Smith. My name
is Mathematic. I do role playing games. I try to role play everything
I do, except for today, where I played no Man Sky and actually
had a really fun time. Going to play food. Right now, it's
Parma Death, so it's very terrifying and I need help from chat. We'll
be doing probably a lot tomorrow, so you want to come by and hang
out and help me not die, that would be really awesome either way.
Thank you for being here, Thank you Chat for playing along, Thank you
guys for playing with me. Katie was great meeting you and playing with you
as well. I can't wait for next week. See you then. Bye.
Thank you so much. Man. Jay. Hello, I am Jay,
playing as Brotato, who's playing as Jay Gimerson, who has a large
cat that's been yelling at me the whole episode. I'm sorry if you heard
him. I stream on Twitch every morning ten am Eastern if you guys want
to watch coffee time, and I'm addicted to Slay the Spire and I am
also going to games Calm. I'm flying out tomorrow night. So yeah,
I had no idea you were going. I hope that's the same thing.
So we're getting drinks tomorrow. We're hanging out all weekend and I get to
actually watch a next ORGS run down the streets of Germany. Drum screens gone
running down Germany. Pod, I'll get there. Actually brought you up there.
It's gonna be great. Thanks for watching, everyone. I hope you
guys, Hope you guys enjoyed the show, and thank you everyone for supporting
table story all the time. Thanks sure to go check out our patreon.
There's some cool stuff over there, like me asking what if helped me was
real? Go check it out and remember that whack owes me a dab anytime
one of these days. Whack never hears, and that's gonna count. There's
not enough subs in the universe. Couldn't happen. It just couldn't happen.
Thank you Jay. I'm wife Stephen. I have been your administrator today and
I have played all as well. Thank you so much everybody for hanging out
with us. Much appreciated, much love to you Chat, thanks for being
here, thanks for the fan art, thanks for the wonderful comments, and
thank you for role playing along. And I did drop some bombs in chat
today, by the way, or when the headphones were off this is it
got pretty intense. It got pretty intense. So thanks everybody for role playing
along, Thanks for hanging out with us. We appreciate you. And if
you haven't done so, please make sure you follow all of these wonderful people.
And if you have yourself a Twitch Prime or an Amazon Prime, what
are you doing? Go use it? Go use it. Go to one
of these people's channels, go give them some sublove and get yourself some emotes.
Make it happen. And if you want to help support table story,
one of the best ways you can do that is, like Jay said,
and over to our patreon. It's a tablestory dot tv slash pledge. If
you want to do that, or if you want to you know, keep
up to date on the things that we do. Follow this channel, turn
notifications on so you know when we go live with different shows that we do
here, We've got a ton of great stuff. On Monday, We've got
zero Blue Orion, which is a anime is fuck Mecca role playing show.
There's just all kinds of craziness that goes on on that show and we blow
stuff up and it gets real anime over there. So make sure you hang
out for that. Otherwise, I hope you have a wonderful rest of your
weekend. Everybody, peace out, good night. Squa. I don't know anything
