High Rollers: Aerois #10 | The Thorns

[@HighRollersDnD]

Hi all. Mark here. I wanted to make a pinned comment to remind folks that whilst we don't mind constructive criticism, or people disagreeing with player choices/actions, we will *never* tolerate people being hostile, mean-spirited, or outright rude to our players (or me I guess) and such comments will be removed and offenders banned from posting.

[@Cizma]

Agreed, difference of opinion is common, but hostility and rudeness should be quenched asap. ps...I'm at the 1:15:00 point...am I going to be devastated Mark?...are you going to grab my little heart and squeeze...?

[@Cizma]

...

[@Cizma]

And what I meant was quelched, not quenched ^^

[@karlcross9112]

WOW, Go read comments on Critical Role videos. Funny thing about playing D&D in public you get positive and negative comments about your play.

I was so certain Trott was going to get arrested just like in the lightfall campaign.

[@someonessidechannel1485]

Its great that trott has singlehandedly managed to have the group add "ie" or "y" to the end of words with zero persuading. He's just done it that much.

[@johanwittens7712]

Its Also a known psychological phenomenon called "mirroring". When you like someone you subconsciously start mimicking their behaviours. This means that the group subconsciously is starting to accept and like the Lucius character... It's heartwarming to know that these effects are valid even for fictional characters... 😉 You subconsciously do this with friends, family, and even on dates etc.

[@annaspringbear]

I know you all did this five years ago but I'm only just finding it, and it's wonderful! If you'd have told me a few months ago that watching people play dungeons and dragons would make me cry I wouldn't have believed it. Thank you, and I can't wait to see the rest of this world and story!

[@MsSilentH]

Trott's rp of Lucius is just gold. That being said, Mark's rp of Trott rping Lucius is also gold

I am in very much agreement with Lucius. "What if he never gets back [alive].." Im good with that. *Grins menacingly with a flamethrower*

[@neileo1540]

so far i'm really happy to say i'm enjoying this series so much. Trott is, as always carrying the series with his experience and hilarious RP moments. His linkup with the other characters helps out a lot in moments where it could otherwise be quite dull. I think Lucius can only grow into a fantastic character. Tom is playing the role of the sort of cautious leader who people seem to look to for the final say a lot of the time but Quill has been a good voice of reason so far. Kim i'm so glad to say has made a rather enjoyable character in Nova. She still has some of her characteristics from the first dnd series, in which sadly a lot of people... myself included didn't like Jiutou at all and was generally quite a hard character to like but she's made me laugh a lot in Aerois! Rhiannon is a wonderful smiley addition to the team and for someone who is completely new to dnd has contributed excellently! I think she just need to be brought into the conversation a bit more by the others. Katie has been missing for a number of episodes, which is a shame and hopefully she'll be back to join the gang regularly too but has had flashes of funny moments and seems to be keeping people in line when they get a little too silly :P Mark you've really outdone yourself with the world building and wonderful characters in this one. Your range of accents is very impressive too ;D all in all i'm loving this campaign and please guys keep it up! :D

[@skeletalarkeus5728]

I agree they need to try and bring Sentry into the conversation more. Loving this campaign though

[@MrKenpachi28]

@@skeletalarkeus5728 Yeah, I think she is a shy person in general, plus being new to the system (which she picked up rather quickly and when she does RP it is quite on point!) AND being filmed--that's a lot of pressure! Trott has always carried High Rollers and I think this is the episode where I was like "yep, they've clicked. I'm invested now" and I love it!

So I started this after catching up with your Curse of Strahd campaign - this has been great background noise, with some good character moments, but this episode? I am now PAYING ATTENTION! I can't believe I only have 60 episodes to catch up on (i got caught up on CR in less than 2 months so 60 episodes is not a lot) and i really can't wait to be able to join you live. I have really enjoyed seeing how everyone is getting into character slowly, forming a group so naturally it's just *chefs kiss* - Mark you're awesome!

[@elinorrose344]

Omigod! The guy they had dinner with has 6 children but only 4 were there! The boy and girl with the Goliath could’ve been his children and the other guy might have been a miner that worked for him. Edit (from reply): plus Brett said his children could hunt and survive in the forest (one had a bow?). Maybe he actually is involved who knows Edit 2: and if he is it may not be voluntary or because he’s evil

[@vergiltasev7108]

Ellie Rose That's genius, it all makes sense, as the father said that he taught his older children how to hunt and survive in the forest and they are the same age. I bet this big shadowy dude is working for the Remnant and Brookstone helped him all the way...

[@garrethopwood8178]

Nice catch! That sounds very plausible. Even if true that doesn't necessarily mean Brett is evil (not implying you said that). He's a family first guy and could have had his family threatened if he didn't cooperate.

[@vergiltasev7108]

True, typical family first guy as you said, fueled by his troubled past, he would do everything not to lose his family again, even if that means helping in kidnapping and (potential) murder...especially if it's about some strangers that appeared a few days ago.

[@staceyelaine1869]

Valla is just reminding me more and more of my current DND character Scarlett. Upon the party's adventures, they were helping a group of people against some danger. Meanwhile, my character stopped and decided to rest after all the previous events, the worst decision ever, as she then decided to keep exploring..... to which She bumped into a past party member (Dms character) who had gone missing, her protector. He had been possessed and actually kidnapped her, taking her to her half-brother.... making her dissapear from her party as eventually, she was kidnapped by her half-brother, and the possession over that party member dissolved, leaving him with guilt.... and finding the party to tell them how he had failed to protect her. Long story short: Scarlett was kidnapped when left alone, and her protector had gone missing. Just like Valla got kidnapped when her protectors was killed. Scarlett has untapped magical powers bestowed by a Phoenix, Valla has unknown, possible sorcery magical powers. Scarlett is being hunted by her God parent Hades, (yes she is a demigod), Valla is being hunted by the court of shadows (maybe?) for some reason assuming she is special. Scarlett and Valla are both the youngest in the group, both with family non-existent (scarlett didnt know about her god parent..... her non-bioligcal parents got killed).... The DM told me he got inspiration from High Rollers.... now i understand bahahah..... bad idea to watch now :P

Turning a powerfully magical blacksmith's hammer into a trinket that lets you cast Scorching Ray once per day - at the cost of reducing the damage of a Hexblade's weapon seems... insane to me. I get that Nova would want to feed her sword any kind of magic she came across if it asked her to, but I feel like it's foolish for the others to agree to this.

@@OurFamilyGame honestly, I wish they'd just have a few practise encounters off stream, so she knows how shit works. So much more smooth when somebody goes through 10 or so battles with you. Then you get the rhythm of hit dice and then damage dice. Rather than people having to watch over her while she stumbles on a live stream. Like I said though, shes doing well.

I know I'm late to this, but sudden realisation at 2hr28 that the two helping the Goliath through the woods is probably the brookstones that were at "work" during dinner

At this point I think the number of episodes with the full crew is LESS then the number of episodes with players missing

[@h.s.6269]

Yea it's a bit distracting or messes with immersion just a bit. But since most of them seem to be aila it isn't too bad (since it's 1 player, not rotating. I'm not dissing her)

Mark you cruel man... MAH HEART! YOU HAVE TEMPORARILY KILLED IT! GAH!

[@pyrogen8569]

What happened to The frivolous five? Fitting name if you ask me.

Lets see names for the group: Capricious Caperers Whimsical Wonderers Vexatious Vipers Rambling Roughriders Prattling Clusters

[@mme.veronica735]

Ooo Vexatious Vipers. I like that one.

[@JimothyTheGreen]

Sorry to detract from the episode but I kinda want the full party back together more consistently. It feels like the times all five players have been present has been few and far between. Full party dynamic lost :/

[@HighRollersDnD]

Sadly the team have jobs and live outside of HighRollers and sometimes that's going to take priority over the game. Katie will be back when she can, but there may be times when she or others can't attend. Just like a real D&D group. ;)

[@Markcrazeer]

hope if this keeps up we get more of a Ashley Johnson situation and not another Matthew toffolo situation.

[@JimothyTheGreen]

High Rollers DnD I appreciate that and the response. Katie’s missed :)
