Episode 2 - High Rollers: Dead Reckoning

[@liamfitzsimons2806]

a fancy halfling gave tom the note? A fancy halfling working for the harpers, helping assemble a team for the harpers? AQUA MAMBA

[@finlayslater2172]

Yes

[@justincasselman2589]

Looking at the silhouette of the character art like "Whose that Pokemon?!"

[@zacharyrichard3830]

Man, I love Tholschank. Fleecing those crewman and flipping that coin to the informant was so cool.

[@talscorner3696]

For a moment I was like "You flick the coin behind your back and you don't hear it land."... that frame was awesome xD

[@rsl_bass]

The Dungeon Master’s scream at 26:58 is actually quite good. I wasn’t expecting that out of him lol.

[@deshmystery3294]

Fleecing the crew of the skyship for their pillows... BEST ROGUE EVER.

Everybody's DEAD Dave.

[@someguy9381]

Tbh the blacked out character pictures look pretty nice, even w/o Nina's art work.

[@quinnlee-newbury9003]

I picture a first episode of this as a tv show would be each of their backstories being shown throughout the episode, each of them dying 3 quarters the way though, and the last scene being a split screen of them all being resurrected

[@Mathizsias]

That scuffling sound is driving me insane.

[@filipezomignanialves4691]

I'm glad I'm not the only one. How can nobody watching it live tell them ? And it's clearly the DM's mic, 'cause there's noise everytime he moves. 😠

[@redfordcrawford]

@@filipezomignanialves4691 I think they said it was pre recorded so no live chat :( - gets fixed @ 34:55 ish - and come back about 30mins :( lol

[@filipezomignanialves4691]

@@redfordcrawford , well...in this case, I guess there's nothing that could be done. At least they fixed it in the following episodes.

Interesting I did a metal fan as a loot drop for my players and stated it as a shortsword as well.

[@splurgabonnnephlhogg3000]

After this you should do a straight evil campaign were they are all working for some dark overlord

[@ironcladguildhand9321]

Aye, Dark Overlord!

[@Autumn_DeeDum]

Its weird, watching this in 2024, it feels like an integral part is missing. Rhiannon really completes the High Rollers crew!

[@JakeTheNutcase]

Great episode guys! Tom fleecing the crew and Kim rp'ing her character as a whole was amazing!

[@ReeferAfterDark]

as a gm I often use NPC abilities to make certain things like in the bar scene they order whiskey on the rocks a little frost magic to make ice or chill a bottle of wine or a pint of beer or ale little things like that to pitch into an interaction really helps setting lol adding little positive effect with those things as well sometimes adding it in secret by like saying and sudennly you feel like the drink the bar keep gave you made you much more charismatic or made you more intelligent or whatever theres loads of things you can do with it you can tell them on there next action or two actons or right after you drink it ive used it alot to say right after the drink i say you know your charcter feels like every sip is warning you of immediate danger alerting you to a group of baddies about to jump you or whatever

[@jacquesmoody7904]

I feel like they are just some kind of suicide squad.

[@colbynelson2760]

Love this!! Please tell me the gnome took off his cloak before he fell into the water though.

[@tomhazell8667]

uhm

[@lochies5407]

Is anyone else getting some audio/video stuttering every now and then?

[@darmocat]

Yes. It is driving me crazy.

[@vTaylorv2]

Yes it was an obs problem when it went out, as it was a 2 hr video streamed back

[@-drcoconut-9240]

1:44 "East coast?" "Pacific." "Yeah, east."

[@ironcladguildhand9321]

The Forgotten Realms has a lot of cool factions. The Harpers are probably my favorite, though.

[@sanddry738]

4:20 lovely mystery piano bookmark

[@malakai960]

I'm so glad there was a drizzt reference i love those books I wonder if Katie knows that her character has the same name as drizzt's mother

[@AndromedaD]

We go to a bar after all our games, and there is a large, mirrored, Guinness sign that we tend to sit under. It's totally the same as the Harpers logo. It's all those drunken bards.

[@AndromedaD]

Spelljammer airship! I gave my players the same thing!

[@sabliath9148]

A Sargent of the Neverwinter Guard huh? All I can say to that is: "Protector's Enclave needs your help!"

[@talscorner3696]

"You fall to asleep to giggling and scratching." Hey, at least it's not raining, you're not soaked to the bone, there are no wounded screaming for their lives in the med's tent or under the surgeon's tools because the camp ran out of whatever painkiller faerunians use and you actually have something remotely comfy to sleep on. What's some cold mist, giggling and random scratching going to do?

[@finnianquail8881]

Tholschank is my role model now

[@UCFElCarnicero]

Loved the dragon just turning up and the music kicking up at that point. Well done! HATE the sound-stutters tho. ;)

[@sonofdrjekyll]

trots the best . I like the brick wall murder train

[@xcmysterioushope7053]

I love how trott sounds like Jack sparrow.

[@ianthe2131]

fucking la llorona over here.

[@hank9112]

This is my favorite dark campaign.

[@zacharyrichard3830]

Some spookness just in time for spook season! Awesome!

[@kyle5864]

Can anyone tell me what music Trott used and where I can get it? I desperately need these tracks for my games!

[@schmurble2254]

Maybe epidemic sound, they’ve got a really big music library with a lotta stuff. Also, there’s Vindsvept, who does really good fantasy music.

[@quinnlee-newbury9003]

I believe during Trott's DM special that's what he says. You can double check it some time in the start of that vid

[@toshomni9478]

So once again Kim is basically playing a demon. I sense a theme developing here. Seriously though, this is looking to be another fantastic series. Love all the characters and the setting.

[@RokuroCarisu]

She picked a Fallen Aasimar because she thought it looked like Specimen 5.

[@Ali-ey9sz]

The only time K'ehleyr was a demon, was in bed.

[@danialmouse]

I imagine kim is playing specimen 5

[@RokuroCarisu]

Specimen 5 is more like Harley Quinn though.

[@bladetytan9025]

I swear, the backstory for Worthless after her resurrection sounds very similar to La Llorona from Mexican Folklore.

[@Liecham]

Starts at 0:07

[@willwebster4441]

choppy sound seems to get a bit better around 35:00 point

[@darmocat]

Thank you for giving me hope.

I'm not done with the video yet, but I hope Trott fixes the audio poping gaaaa.

[@8BitShadow]

A pre-recorded steam of a pre-recorded stream...my head.

[@Heavytrucker34]

you know watching this back they could have just told the dragon everything and they would have probably made a a friend of the thing.

[@bearmen5140]

Crackly audio, anyone else experiencing this? Edit: No I don't mean scratchy mics, I mean the audio skipping a little/crackling every little bit.

[@noof7436]

What is the name of the song from right at the start if the video

[@98abaile]

Is the sound popping for anyone else?

[@geoffbeasley8712]

A nat 1 made me late R.I.P

[@plebgaming7874]

Just a bit surprised that they lied to a Bronze Dragon, that hates Thay, when they could have just said they were going to fuck them up. It worked out though.

Hey, anyone knows the title and artist of the music around minute 18?

[@xiuhnani6945]

-Actually, knight's only ever took off their armour 2 times to 3 times a year, as it was a bother to put on.- Sloppy research, apologies!

[@TheSillyPiglet]

They also only ever put their armour on 2 to 3 times a year, as it was a bother to wear armour when you didn't need it.

[@xiuhnani6945]

-Haha, maybe in DnD, in real life they needed their squires to help them take it off. Heavy armour was so heavy that you couldn't just take it off or put it on whenever, it required a lot of untying, strength, help and unbuckling. The whole romantic idea of knight armour being pristine and easy to take off as you please (15 mins or less) is more or less bogus.- Again, badly done research. Sorry.

[@xiuhnani6945]

Hmm... Maybe my research was a bit sloppy, I did this research a few years ago, so maybe I forgot something or maybe my sources were untrustworthy. I'd like to thank you for correcting me! Also, since it's the 25th, Happy Holidays!

[@KRANative]

16 mins in didn’t Mark realise his mic was scratching against his shirt I’m sure it’s only when he is talking or moving lol

Made a blood hunter myself after watching the last episode. I feel the undying part from a order of profane soul would have also been pretty cool of kim to play XD they heal their rite damage after each kill with their weapon inscribed with their right of the dawn.

1:07:00

[@dexi301]

much edge

[@elizabethtravis7332]

Hearing Kim lay out the backstory, I’m a lot more sympathetic to Worthless’ old friends than I do with her. It’s not uncommon for people to have questions about the divine, but that’s no excuse for looking into a downright evil religion that goes against everything she was taught. She basically turned traitor to her old religious family and fell for a most likely evil man. I can honestly understand why the verdict was execution. For all we know, they may have taken Worthless’ child from her in order to protect them and give them a better life than they ever would have had as the child of an evil cleric.

[@ListerWalkthroughs]

Finally getting around to catch up on this and having to turn my audio up anytime Kim creeps out of a corner is a little inconvenient.

[@nosurvivalrate137]

[@dizzleshizzle1059]

for the love of god, test the mics before you start. there is a static through at least the first seven minutes. as Kim would say - Killing my immersion!

[@TheBakedSnake]

dizzle shizzle Cool it. It is free media and as you said it is only for the first 10 minutes or so. Should just appreciate them putting on a show for us.

[@pineapple1164]

I have to say, it is Worthless who makes this series tolerable rather than very enjoyable. This is nothing against Kim, it is Worthless the character that gets on my nerves. EDIT:I hope nobody sees this as hate, I just wanted to put my opinion down.

[@danielgarcia2297]

Kim's character is more just obsessed and sorrowful than crazy. Crazy is aimless. I feel she is using the term loosely.

[@pinkpixels8806]

I feel that Worthless used it as an act to trick others into think she was, indeed, worthless and therefore harmless.

[@PogMcDog]

Couldn't listen to this campaign on my pc. The bass rapes my studio headphones ;_;

Ahhhhhhh when players don't listen to the DM, Just say were trying to steal info from the country that you don't like, trying to be sneaky, you mind if we jump? You don't? thanks have a nice day.

I don't know why but this is hard for me to watch. I keep clicking off
