AGrumpyPanda fully agree but homebrew+injury rules against inexperienced players (in combat) can make a tpk as a real possibility (if this is what the players and mark wants that it is up to them but I personally would like to have a chance to see the players succeed in their missions without them almost dying every single time! But I will enjoy the show no matter how they will play...

[@arielravid7674]

But the reaction of mark when he killed another character was not like he thought it would be this dungeon (I think he made this dungeon a little bit easier on the players to give them a rest, but they still managed to screw themselfs to the point that quill died...)

[@AGrumpyPanda]

@@arielravid7674 On the subject of the injury rules and his encounter design philosophy, part of me does have to level the 'blame' (because it's not anyone's fault) at the party, both because they as players aren't super tactically minded, and their characters aren't very tactically minded either. The question is how long it's going to take their characters to snap out of daydream mode and start taking combat seriously.

​@@mrphoenix_guy4593 In Forgotten Realms lore (from which Mark picks and reflavors some for use in Aerois) Hadar is an evil godlike being in the form of a dying star in outer space.

[@lamarwashington2718]

Counter spell can’t be used unless it’s a spell so you can’t waste it. You can’t make a reaction unless the trigger happens.

[@Minimoimaximus]

I disagree. This is not Magic (as much as I love it) where you're (as a player) supposed to know if it is a valid target or not. Here, you are not, or more precisely the character is not always supposed to. You can, as a character, try to hit a ghost to discover it is perfectly immune to physical attacks, something you didn't know before. In the same way you can try a counterspell on something that looks to you like a spell but in fact isn't. And to add to it, even Magic let you choose only a valid target but waste the spell/ability if the target disappears before the ability resolution. For example, you can counter a removal spell by sacrificing your own creature and use this sacrifice to launch another spell. The removal has no effect anymore as the target is already gone, but it stills "happens", and is wasted. To go back to DnD, what happens if you counterspell a spell at the same moment someone else does? Does the first one has to try, and then if he fails only the other spell trigger? For me, as a DM, no, both counterspells trigger even if the first one to be rolled is enough. Because a fraction of second is not enough for the character to assert if his ally got it right and then decides if he wants to try himself. Even if you, as a player, can. All this to show it is some very important part of the "triggers" and "valid target" mechanics in any game. It adds layers upon layers of risk-taking and learning the abilities, among other elements. It is even more important in a narrative game as DnD is because there is no narrative justification about the counterspell being not wasted. The character tries to launch it. And can. She just does it on "nothing" as there is actually no spell to counter. And it is useful in itself because you learn from that the "spells" the enemy uses aren't spells at all.

[@arielravid7674]

Maxime Minimoi Cha-Jdr as for the rules of d&d counterspell can be cast only when a spell is happening so you can’t waste it and it makes sense because: think of enemy spellcasters, what happens when the players cast a spell? They say what spells they cast before casting it so enemy counterspell is in that point much more powerful than player counterspell and can’t be waisted, and that is unfair. So to conclude, according to the rules mark made a mistake (maybe he will homebrew otherwise but that will give a potent advantage to enemy countepells) and just like they play with shield that the player can do it after the roll (and mark in the last campaign played like that with counterspell and shield with his villains...)

[@SherlockHulmes]

@@arielravid7674 DMs make mistakes sometimes. I'll note this for the future and let Kim know.

[@arielravid7674]

Sherlock Hulmes very well, at least now you know and I’m glad you have learned. and this a complete suggestion mine is that because you homebrew a lot to spell like effects (sentry’s glove is similar to aggnazzr’s scorcher for example) maybe give the abilities a spell level so they to could be counterspelled if they are to similar to a spell... (this is only a suggestion that I came up with and I don’t know if it is balanced, so it’s up to you) Keep up the good work!

[@Minimoimaximus]

@@arielravid7674 I'm still not convinced "when a spell is happening" can't mean "when the character thinks a spell is happening". As for ennemies spells, there is some reasons why I don't see it as a problem. First not a lot of ennemies have this ability and most of those having it are very magic-friendly creatures or experienced mages, and therefore less susceptible to confuse a spell with a non-magic ability. Second most of player's spells are much more obviously spells, and the same goes for abilities. Third it's also the DM job to make the ennemies do errors, like that or like trying to hit a player with a spell he's resistant to. It often happens by error anyway, like in reverse "well it's not a spell man" by the player. Finally, the ennemies having slightly better abilities and spells because the DM know them AND the PC very well are part of the balance. Never forget your DM plan the fight alone. You generally plan it with 2 to 7 friends. That's why a group of PCs are almost always winners against a same level party played by the DM. As a DM, I guarantee you you can't keep up with your player's strategies and ideas. It's like playing chess against a 4 players team.

[@leo5d156]

So 2 things: 1) Quill could possibly see or talk to Sentry 2) If the nondead party members can't find something else powerful enough to revive someone they will have to chose who to resurrect. I'm scared, sad, and excited for the future of this campaign.

The Calus/Hedar lore reminds me of KOTOR 1+2. Revan seems to have conquered the galaxy with the intent of uniting it to be able to face the threat of the outer realms. He made sure conquered worlds weren‘t simply destroyed, he left infrastructure and all to form a strong force that could hold up to the real Sith threat out there. Here Calus might be one who tries to strengthen the world when the gods and specifically Siaska seemed not to take the threat seriously in his view.

They took a long rest before entering the dungeon and I don’t think they have been in there very long, maybe a couple hours at most.

And quill didn’t have any hit dice left so a short rest wouldn’t have done anything to help him.. But I agree I would if at least tried to taken a long rest of it was possible even if a few ghosts came back. They seemed easy enough to defeat. Plus there’s no way I enter a fight especially a boss fight with 1hp!!! At the very least quill shouldn’t have given his last hit die to cut himself for the blood to break the chains. It should of been literally anyone else. Also he should of taken the potion that nova tried to give him. 2d4+2 could possibly of given him enough health to not fall on that specific hit that knocked him down.

Spoilers Guys, do loot Qillek's body, there's something there that should prove incredibly useful provided that you can manage to use it. Also, Qillek's dead!? And this all happened in a month!? This is extremely concerning for what lies ahead. Also, the faces that Tom and Rhiannon made while loot was being distributed, priceless!

Please put spoiler warnings as you have no idea when some one will watch this video or go through the comments looking for something like the end of the break time stamp

Yes, yes you can

Plot twist starbane isn’t the bad guy after all he is the intergalactic protector of aerois

[@sams.5514]

Dan Smith I agree and it definitely fits with the idea that he and ceasca *or however you spell her name* had something going because she could see he wasn’t the bad guy everyone thought he was maybe morally gray but not evil

I swear to God, because of Mark, and mark alone, High rollers is better than critical role.

[@thefracturedbutwhole5475]

I don't know about that, Matt Mercer and Mark Hulmes are both great DM's but Sam Riegel tips the scales for me

[@TortillaBill]

@@thefracturedbutwhole5475 CR definitely has a better cast but Mark is such a great story teller/ world builder

[@PSIRockOmega]

Well... That's sure wasn't what I expected.

[@josephjones9961]

Rule out of the player handbook: Damage at 0 Hit Points. If you take any damage while you have 0 hit points, you suffer a death saving throw failure. If the damage is from a critical hit, you suffer two failures instead. If the damage equals or exceeds your hit point maximum, you suffer instant death.

I could hold it together when sentry died but this one had me crying fr
