High Rollers: Aerois #71 | The Wings of Ishtar

[@aussiekola2370]

This is legit my new favorite episode of high rollers: Aerois! The first one was when Lucius kills some cows, second was when they were building the stormchaser and hiring crew. NOW THIS?!? I LOVE IT!

[@a.garcha199]

Sentry not gonna ask how this guy knew root prime? He said he used to be his ally and root prime has been stuck on aerois since before it was aerois, which means this guy was in the original war of the divinity?

[@waldenclaassen1431]

Well, he is a CR 21 creature. One can assume that he is a being nearly as old as the multiverse itself. He also said that sometimes in his memory a century can become minutes or something so he has got to be *OLD*

[@a.garcha199]

@@waldenclaassen1431 well the fact he was with root basically confirms he was in the divine war minimum since root was trapped straight after it finished and said nobody knew where he was. He said he was on Starbane's side before he destroyed Alfheim and that starbane would not want to fight him, he must be a beast.

[@Putrefax]

He also literally said "I was young when Siaska appeared on the scene"

I love how Aila accidentally says wise shit, one of my favorite of the crew lmao

[@Superkoolperson15]

I got so emotional with this angel giving them each their respect and offering help for them all. Like legit tears

[@danielbaskins6601]

THE MUSIC WHEN NOVA GETS HEALED!!!! So good. I almost started crying.

[@jakehotchkiss6093]

I was just sat there wondering if Quill's arm was also gonna get healed lol

[@little_lilac3262]

I like how the party litterly knows more than an ANGEL

[@demilts]

I lost it at the DndBeyond ad. Holy shit. I'm going to buy a shirt now.

[@Matthew-pd4zx]

27:10 Oh boy... Trott's D&D Beyond segment was hilarious 😂😂. Kim is right, it will be hard to top that.

[@xAugustx11]

Oh man Kim is so right, the one time they ACTUALLY insight check someone and it's a fucking angel. Lmao.

[@datjatv3838]

Yeah... i understand them being wary but most angels cannot lie i think

[@rogue_arcana9171]

This week's D&DBeyond ad had me crying with laughter 🤣🤣🤣. Love you guys so much.

[@veemie8148]

Funniest shit I've ever seen

[@amyheath8261]

I like the idea that the reason Quill trusted Zellion on his insight check was that Hespa was modelled on celestials- having wings and being the god of knowledge

[@spaceslime21]

Starmother: I'm not dead. The party: What? The world: Here's your nine pence. Starmother: I'm not dead! Party: 'Ere, he says he's not dead. The world: Yes he is. Starmother: I'm not. The party: He isn't. The world: Well, he will be soon, he's very ill. Starmother: I'm getting better. The world: No you're not, you'll be stone dead in a moment.

[@RossMKitson]

Stunningly good episode of sci-fi fantasy mash-up (read Magitech). Great story, great lore dump, bit of a scrap (great to see them finally doing okay). For me the repurposing of trad DnD monsters as surrogate alien races/ Gaurdians of Galaxy was excellent (medusa and imps, angels and demons as Valkyrian troopers).

[@naughtydred8538]

Trott makes me want to watch the adds and look into the product, Mark makes me trust that it's a good product

the fact that mark created IMDb in his game is too good

[@Smonster42]

I'm making my way through the VODs and Trot turning himself into a d20 had me in STITCHES! xD

[@katlynkoski3320]

Is it possible that Callas is being affected by Hidar? Like, his hunger to destroy Hidar is making him mad? Cause I don't think Harold voluntarily became Hidar conflicted, she must of known of him before the call. So Callas is involuntarily being Hidar afflicted

[@MorinehtarTheBlue]

Certainly possible. Especially considering how the aeterna are often deliberately corrupted. And if feeding them other sentient's life force isn't related to Hadar I don't know what is.

[@jamesmaceaveli6679]

Thank you High Rollers for this nice little Birthday treat, hoping for a great episode. Soo excited to see what's going to happen next. I'm 22 BTW

[@lucasnicholson9443]

Can't wait for the party to return to Aerois, only for them to be greeted by ghost Smeek again... Unless of course Smeek's ghost was attached to the party when they crossed worlds, and he's still here...

[@Micromanic]

Mark's defeated, "He has done to much," absolutely slays me everytime I rewatch it 😂 Really need a version showing the rest of the crew's cameras to capture their reactions haha

[@danalou_who7765]

I absolutely LOVE that the True Elves are Scottish in so many ways

[@commentatorboy]

I can not believe this. Mark. This is some INSANE! story writing! I LOVE IT. I can CLEARLY see the similarities with gurren lagann and this. Not saying it is a bad thing. Really. This just makes the world more engaging.

Whenever they say signet I think they’re saying cygnet and I imagine Starbane officers carrying large grey fluffy baby birds around

[@thefracturedbutwhole5475]

That donation person was right, Trott needs to use his meta magic more.

[@DuoSanguis]

Oh great! The Styx (Sticks?) is literally The Warp! I guess with totally-not-the-Emperor-of-Mankind Callus it's not too surprising, let's just hope the Styx doesn't have stuff like Tzeentch or gods forbid Slaanesh

[@synclair6131]

in this fandom we love big cat

[@powwow8796]

OK so hear me out here since Qillek normally waits to heal people until they're already down should he or should he not have at least one level and necromancy? Let's talk about it. Let's talk about it

[@yeahright8424]

Mase man I agree this whole complaining about Tom not healing meme is lame af 😂

[@yeahright8424]

Mase man 5e rest mechanics are broken af 1 hour rest for basically full health from 0. Using healing only when someone is down is so much more efficient preventative healing is very very rarely more optimal. Plus I’m almost certain every opportunity they have when purchasing magic equipment etc they’ve picked up healing pots ????? I know the duskmeadow and the magic shop in gusthaven for certain

[@yeahright8424]

Mase man yeah I’d say preemptive healing is only good with the heal spell and maybe beacon of hope or with some sort of magic item that amplifys base healings effectiveness

[@thefracturedbutwhole5475]

@@yeahright8424 except Mark uses an injury rule, sure, normally healing someone when they drop is more efficient but in this game waiting to do that could cost you an eye, a limb, broken limbs etc... Mark even said he put the injury rule in to counter players doing that.

[@MorinehtarTheBlue]

​@@thefracturedbutwhole5475 Certainly a concern but even that rule is going to be offset by Restoration and Greater Restoration. Only serious effects that would require regeneration will even be an obstacle soon. And only because Tom chose to multiclass does he not have Greater right now.

[@MrZonehawk]

Does the cockpit have a pair of metallic dice?

[@hldavid6108]

Oh boy! That's what I need!!

[@mickyisherenow]

Oh quill, it's either great or terrible with you.

[@DextrorseTANK]

They should’ve asked the solar about the Dragonborn. They are just one big brook stone waiting to happen.

[@toshomni9478]

As far as I can tell they are just being needlessly paranoid about the Dragonborn. Maybe a case of reverse Brookstoning?

[@MorinehtarTheBlue]

The dragonborn are both proud and paranoid. They aren't bad but they are making it rather hard to maintain alliance. However the Stormchasers aren't exactly helping the situation either.

[@matthewholmes5993]

Could Lucius suck up his own dichromancy (sp?) In to his gauntlet?

[@BlueKyanite]

Hey Mark, I think your ship design was pretty dope! Good job, awsome episode guys

Arcane guns are older than outlaw Starr but I do live the caster rifles.

Ishtar Militia? ~Militishtar~

[@Derploop]

Not sure if Mark picked this up but yuu can't Levitate creatures over 500 pounds. Basically, it's a non-warforged/goliath/loxodon medium creature and lighter spell. Like that clutch Critical Role levitate to save Nott in the Labenda Swamp; the troll was technically too heavy to be levitated. EDIT: Holy shit, Tom himself did. What a hero. Mark getting all awkward for the aforementioned reason haha.

[@dadefrost2059]

It came up once before when Nova tried to levitate their wagon over a river when they were seeking out the midwife's forge.

[@Derploop]

@@dadefrost2059 but I know he missed it himself on Critical Role when he saved Nott from death by levitating a Troll.
