Should I take Ricardo Vega hunting now at night in the swamp. There might
be some small game on this island, maybe some sort of like ground squirrels
or things like that, but you haven't seen any signs of anything any bigger
here. You could theoretically try fishing. Yeah, I would think it would
either be fishing or looking for something edible. Plant wise, Yeah, you
could also go and look for edible plants. That's true. Even if it's
just like half a day's ration for us, that's still stretches. Yeah,
pushed the needle back a little bit, absolutely right. All right, Well,
I will say if you want to do a survival check for edible plants,
I'm going to call the difficulty one for this, because you guys have
already canvassed the island and this is looking for food or shelters. So you
can reduce that to D zero if you'd like. All right, good ship,
I'll roll survival. And you said you're gonna take Vega with you to
help. Yeah, Vega, do you have any expertise in survival? I
believe so. Yeah. Hold up, hold up, calls him the doghouse
right now. I'll let him sit and stare into the water and ponder alchemy
or whatever the fuck it is. He does work to marry and I've ever
known I have two expertise in survival. Okay, cool, So since you're
lending your aid octomury, you can roll three dice three successes. There you
go. You just generated three momentum. I will spend two of it to
acquire food for everybody. Yeah, yep, I don't know. Are there
mushrooms in the swamp? They find some damn mushrooms somewhere. You find some
mushrooms. You find some edible seeds. Some of the bushes around here have
like small tart not really pleasant, but definitely edible berries. M oh yeah.
Do you even find some wild carrots and stuff? We just push the
clock back one more time. Hey, that's strategy has gotten you more than
halfway out of this place, so it's true. All right, I'll head
back then, all right, you will take your rest, Pedra. You're
gonna be turning some of your herbs into concoctions, right, Yes, so
it normally takes a full day to prepare ingredients into concoctions, but if you
spend a momentum, you can do it faster. Yes, exactly, so
there's six momentum in the pool right now, and at the end of this
scene it's going to drop by one. Anyways, smoking me for Goden Phedra,
how many can I speed cook? I guess the idea of Ricardo Vega
telling Phedre to smoke him if she's got him about the metaphysical aspect of rolling
dice is great. But when we're in talking about dice, rolling Jordan is
here, all right, But when when we're in the like, you know,
combat swamp play out thing, that is when we is talking. I
mean, I can't actually prepare things that are meant to be smoked as medicine,
but for now you're just making kidcoctions. It's true, It is true.
I would like to bend if you can make me some wrist weed that'd
be dope as hell. Swamp for some reason, really good for risks that
are sprained by clubs. S. He's Americans. It's an oddly specific kind
of weed dealers that try to hit me on the very overly so specific light
lightest and the left ankles. So this is too real for me. Tell
yeah, impressive. If I have eleven ingredients, I am somehow imagining six
momentum is not gonna let me cook all of that into concoctions. But so
you're spending one momentum non repeatable to perform the task in half the time.
Yeah, you can then spend momentum that you acquire from the test to give
yourself additional concoctions. Okay. So I will spend the one momentum to speed
things up. Okay, and then I'll invest a fortune in dice so I
hopefully generate more momentum and get more concoctions. Okay, Okay, here we
go, nicem Oh wow, two critical. Wow, that is four successes.
So you make five concoctions. Oh very nice. We are concocting out
of control. Fader is getting used to this, performing her craft with very
limited tools. Thing. Apparently, Octo mur, I think I got that
wrist weed you were looking for. Hell yeah, if I go to my
dispensary tomorrow and there's a wristweed available, I'm gonna be so pissed off.
I'm gonna be so angry. I'm about four twenty blaze that sweet. It's
gonna be a topical. Get ready. You don't have to give Octomer concoction.
You can just give him the straight up herb, and I will allow
it. It'll only take him like a day of rest to recover, but
it has to be a full day of rest. Yeah, Yeah, give
him one of the herbs and he's good. That's the wristweed, which is
now canonically a thing in this swamp. I guess you know what this This
wizard is dank enough and that enough that if you put his pot garden in
his swamp, I wouldn't be all that surprised. You know, this is
the only valley in the entire Hyborean continent where wristweed grows. Though, so
we gotta come back as he's a special because he's a specially. No,
we're not getting we're not coming back here. Enjoy the strain while it lacks.
If you want to grow more somewhere else. Its dealers a catfish swim
through a bog to get some of that sweet wrist Sweet dug, my dealer
is a catfish. Is definitely episode. My dealer's a catfitch. I'm gonna
throw that out there. He specializes it's sweet Yborean wristwat So as you do,
honestly. Okay, now that socks Toomer has had his wrist weed.
It's time for everyone to go and unique lore for our universe capital l lore.
Oh. Yeah, everyone goes to bed. October sleeps easy because he's
had his wrist weed and easy, baby. Unfortunately you wake up to call
once again dropping a log on your wrist. I'm doing all of the it's
early morning, there's mist rising up off of the solid green water, and
it's still very unnaturally calm. Yes, so it's time for the maiden voyage
of the HMS. Whatever the fuck you want to name your AFT, I
guess lex Bottom wrist weed, the Lonely Journey, the good Ship ristweed,
the good ship called the good ship because yeah, ship MS the good Ship.
All right, let's go, baby, Only the crustiest weed for me,
please, sir. So is Ricardo going to convincingly convince everyone that just
because he comes from Sangara from Singara, that he's automatically the sailor who needs
to pilot this this raft. I wouldn't say that necessarily, but he would
definitely offer his services as like as is Garan. I've been on the FID
been on the waters before. Do you think you can sail it? Oh?
They were better ships last time, but well we're gonna be dead here
regardless. Let's give it a shot. I get on the quote raft,
the alleged raft. I wish it to be known to both the GM and
the audience. I have a tempted to board the quote unquote raft. No,
it's a raft in brackets and ready to receive the consequences of this action
craft back simile fuck the artist formerly known as Raft. I'll stop, I
say what wait, we'd find an aim for one of the bigger islands up
north is ultimately our goal. So right basically, what's visible to you right
now, stretching off to the north is an open waterway of varying width.
Sometimes the distance between the trees is small. A lot of areas are impassable
because of the cypress knees that are sticking up out of the water. What
makes it challenging to navigate here is not maintaining your direction because you can see
the canyon wall. It's more avoiding hazards. Sometimes you might, you know,
reach a dead end, you might have to backtrack, stuff like that.
So the sailing difficulty it's going to be a d one. But since
none of you have expertise or focus in it, Yeah, yeah, you
see her. I'm going with this because we listened to some jackass. It's
all of us. We wouldn't have to sail to be fair. I didn't
think you would at that point in time. So special thanks to Toys and
