Every one of you is a amazing roleplayer, Mark is a awe-inspiring DM, and I love every single one of you. You guys, and Critical Role, helped me continue during the lowest point of my life.

This is my loving message for you guys. Love this series so much, waking up Sunday mornings on the west coast of California and waiting until 9 A.M to watch your streams is just like waking up for Saturday morning anime when I was young. Thank you all for this fantastic series when I found campaign 2: Aerois with the first 18 episodes when it had character art thumbnails (don’t know what you guys did but I miss them) and my favorite moment was Lucius naively slaughtering some innocent cows (I was slamming my desk from how hard I was laughing) and although my very first live stream wasn’t a very wholesome experience (my first time watching their stream was episode 26) I love the story so much and thank you and someday I will finish the High Rollers: Aerois Trailer but at the moment I am busy with college if you all know how busy that can be angain thank you all for these happy memories I made watching your guys’ story in this DnD world of yours that I put a lot of thought into these characters below (A LOT OF DETAILED INFORMATION COMING SOON), I will put all of the information on the High Rollers Reddit either later today or tomorow, I can’t fit all their origin stories here but I can sum up their characters it’s a lot of paragraphs, I have to finish them one by one in a few days and I put a lot of thought into it hope you all like it. So go to High Rollers Reddit and let me know your thoughts fellow fans of High Rollers DnD maybe High Rollers crew I don’t know but I definitely want the community’s opinion.

It would have been something I could see players trying to abuse. For instance going where Quill wanted and taking that location, which I hoped was some defense system for the city of glass, then teleporting back to horizon and then descend again on the skiff towards the camp. It probably would have been my attempt at this encounter. That does suppose that there was another skiff to use however.

If their goal is to rally the ground defense, there is nothing more demoralizing than the constant barrage of artillery fire pinning you down where you are, fearful to move or get blown up. Just by ceasing that, the troops would know things are changing on the battlefield.

Angle of decent may as well not exist in Aerois if infantry fire can push a heavy skiff 2 miles in 6 seconds. How friction didn't vaporize it instantly is incredible, really. In fact it's incredible the sudden inertia shift doesn't just instantly kill everyone on board, to say nothing of the skiff losing its structural integrity. But it's a fantasy world so I guess anything is possible. :P Anyway it was fun, I just couldn't stop laughing at them being thrown around like a glitchy ragdoll in Skyrim.

@asherandai10003 жыл бұрын
I was thinking its a rare occasion where they should split up and take different roles. Nova & Lucius can take out the airships, maybe getting a Horizon mage to cast fly on them or something. Nova could take out an entire airship with a single spell (Maddening Darkness would swallow an airship depending on size) and Lucius could quickly decimate a crew with vitriolic spheres. Aila and Sentry can support the ground forces. Aila is just brute force and resilience, while Sentry could use something like Crusaders Mantle to buff an entire squad of allies and lead them into battle being that she's essentially a tank herself. While all that's going on Quill could fly around the city looking for Herald or any guardians that need support to retake control of the city. If that's not necessary he could help out either team with the airships or ground forces. I know everyone always says "don't split the party!", but this really felt to me a really good setup to have them use their strengths in different areas. Kinda the same as the Lightfall siege where they got allies killed cause they didn't want to separate from each other.

So I appreciate mark trying to make a system for basically paradropping in. I think he needed a little more studying on the subject tho, most skydiving is around 10,000 feet and they dropped under 2000, so the drift he started with may have worked out at 10000 feet but as you got closer that drift would have kept getting smaller by the 200 ft point they might have drifted a couple city blocks from where their party landed, it still made for a good show don't get me wrong I liked it, but if he made the system he could have started modified it as well... Ex. The checks you fail in the beginning can throw your landing very far, but as turns went by it would be harder to try to make up that gap, but have stopped them from literally being at the mercy of low AC and no reason to actually make the checks if they were thrown so easily from trajectory. So penalize harder early but less as they got closer to the ground.

So now that I’m all caught up if things can happen in the background of gusthaven with all the Technology advancements going on can they build the first ever body from scratch of a brand new guardian waiting for sentry to come and give it life? If so I’m assuming the community would love to put in Applications for what type of fighter this guardian would be, but for it to make sense in my head it would be a level 20 Eldridge knight with armor of invulnerability and a amulet of health with a built in feather fall rune that automatically activates when falling. +3 greatsword with most magical abilities themed around lighting. I call it “project Zeus”. Edit: come on mark think for a sec. if they descended to let’s say 300 feet in the air before the ship hit the side of the building they would not be thrown 2 miles. 1 mile= 5,280 feet, they would have been traveling at least 1,000 mph to to travel that distance and even then they would’ve hit the ground before they even got outside the walls, because gravity is heavy. Even with all that they would’ve been thrown into the walls of this building like crashing your car and you’re not wearing a seat belt you will be thrown in front of your vehicle, hitting the wall like a bug on a windshield. So in turn quill should’ve been knocked unconscious and needed to make death saving throws and a injury check and sentry having high ac and hp she could be barely conscious, but unable to reach quill before his last death saving throw if he didn’t succeed before hand
@o.d.d.54373 жыл бұрын
FYI: Aetherium is needed to build these elite guardians. Special Guardian Units Design1: Sentinel Knights Leading the Sentinel Knights: Guardian Alpha The Sentinel Knights are designed to be capable fighters and have spellcasting abilities being able to enhance their offensive and defensive capabilities. Their armor is resilient to enemy spellcasting abilities also giving that protection to nearby allies. (Example: Paladin Oath of the Ancients LVL 10/Fighter LVL 3 Battlemaster with both the protection and defense fighting styles) Their weapons are two battleaxes and a shield, the battleaxes are specially designed to be able to climb vertical surfaces of castle walls or hulls of ships serving as exceptional infiltrators. Their armor and shield are unique when they successfully defend themselves or others from incoming attacks (attack rolls that miss against the sentinel knight or while using the protection fighting style) that energy from enemy attacks builds up and then that sentinel knight can release that built up energy towards an enemy from their shield to describe what they’re doing they’re releasing a ray of force towards a single enemy and the properties are similar to that of a disintegrate spell but instead of magical power, it’s built up energy from enemy attacks that becomes force energy. The sentinel knights can use their two battleaxes to expand their shield and transform it into a large tower shield giving extra protection to themselves and others (example: when wielding their tower shield that requires both hands to wield their ac increases by 2 and as a bonus action they can choose 1 ally to give +3 to their ac as long as that ally stays within 5ft of the sentinel knight until the start of the sentinel knight’s next turn and when the sentinel knight use their protection reaction its disadvantage on ALL attack rolls against and their tower shield is basically a handheld ¾ cover +2 ac to themselves and +3 ac to an ally the ally they’re protecting because ¾ cover give +5 ac and the tower shield is basically a shared ¾ cover) The leader of this unit called Alpha stands out amongst the Sentinel Knights because of their large stature of being 7ft while the Sentinel Knights are 6ft 5 in, as well as the design of having 6 arms and 6 eyes. Alpha is designed to be a master of all versatile weapons with its flexible arms. Alpha is able to equip multiple shields and its arms and hands can transform into the following: longswords, warhammers, battleaxes, and shields. (Requires bonus action to change any number of hands and arms into Alpha’s desired weapon) The weapons Alpha can wield can transform into any of the 3 weapons or shields that Alpha desires to wield. Although Alpha doesn't have spellcasting abilities and damage resistance from spells like the knights, it does have great resistance to avoid spells or magical effects. (Alpha can make multiple attacks based on how many versatile weapons it’s wielding on each arm. If it hits a creature with its longsword it does an extra d8 of damage, if it hits a creature with its warhammer the creature must make a STR saving throw or be knocked prone, if it hits a creature with its battleaxe it’s instantly knocked 15 ft away from alpha, using the axes’ special design of being able to climb vertical surfaces to grapple and throw the creature away.) If Alpha is ever too damaged to fight offensively, then Alpha is able to turn its entire body into a very large shield that only large guardians like smashers can wield. (When wielded in shield form the following creature gains +5 AC and magic resistance meaning advantage on saving throws against spells and magical effects.) Special Guardian Units Design2: Predators Leading the Predators: Guardian Beta The predators are similarly designed like the forge guardians but have much more mobility in both air and ground as well as having greater firepower. They can also be stealthy and blend into the environment like chameleons. These guardians are the second most expensive guardians because their armor and weapons are flame-enhanced by multiple red fire elemental gems. They are designed to be crossbow experts, quick enemy takedown/neutralization, and have the following arsenal: two hand crossbows, one retractable arm blade on the right arm as big and quick as a shortsword where they can stealthily neutralize enemies, and on their left arm just like forge guardians wield a ray of fire (flame lance) and another wand that shoots bolts of force but the bolts are 3x more powerful than a regular wand of magic missile (instead of 1d4+1 force per bolt it’s 1d10+5), and just like their ray of fire the predators’ crossbows and arm blade are flame enhanced by their chassis furnace and red elemental gems (crossbows don’t require reloading and does 2d6 fire damage, armblade does 1d6 slashing+3d6 fire damage, and the ray of fire does 4d10 fire damage if the creature fails DEX save DC:18 and half of 4d10 on success). Just like forge guardians, they have the ability to take flight into the skies but they are able to remain in the air and fire their weapons, unlike regular forge guardians who remain in the air for a moment to cross huge distances. (They are Rouge assassin LVL 7/Fighter Arcane archer LVL 6 with Bursting (explosive) arrow and Seeking arrow) They are also equipped with emitting steam around them where you ordinary creatures can’t see more than 5ft in front of them while inside the steam and well if they can’t get cover from their fellow Sentinel Knights or surrounding area, they can make their own cover with steam and the predator guardians have special eyes where not only they can see in the dark but even while blinded they can still see. (Equipped with darkvision and blinds sight senses immune to blinded condition) The leader of this unit Beta is built much larger of being 6 ft 3 in. while the rest of the predators are 5ft 8 in and not only does Beta have much more firepower (Rouge Asaasin LVL10/Fighter Arcane Archer LVL 5) but because Beta contains more firepower Beta can also transform into a giant hand crossbow wielded by large-sized guardians. When Beta is in its hand crossbow form it takes a moment to charge and fires two shots and I believe that these two shots are able to take down a single airship in one go. (Example: Guardian Beta hand crossbow, takes an action to charge before firing two shots, +11 to hit 16d6 fire damage, when it hits or misses, everything within 40ft except the targeted creature if it was hit must make a DEX saving throw or take 8d6 fire damage or take half on a success) Beta also has enhanced defenses to defend itself against ranged attacks with its deflecting kick. ( As a reaction, Beta can increase its AC by 5 from 3 ranged attacks that would hit until the start of its next turn.)

Special Guardian Units Design3: Castle Crashers Leading the Castle Crashers: Guardian Gamma These guardians are the most expensive, while Sentinel Knights specialize in defense and the Predator guardians in offense, the Castle Crashers has a mix of both and they can take out multiple enemies while the Sentinel Knights and Predators can take out single enemies quickly. The Castle Crashers are built with a very unique spherical body with four crab-like legs but still have regular arms like a guardian just slightly larger and an almost square-like head, 10x larger than cannonballs. With a sphere-like body, the Castle Crashers can completely retract their arms, legs, and head and become a sturdy ball and can roll around. Now for the main reason why they’re called Castle Crashers. The large guardians commonly called smashers that have the main weapon of a large spike ball and chain where instead of a spike ball they can attach these Castle Crashers in their sphere form and they’re able to launch these Castle Crashers towards an enemy’s fortress like catapults and over the castle walls and cause some havoc on the other side so the enemies will have to face attacks from both flanks. Also, because of their dense sphere body, they don’t take any damage from being launched or fall from a great height (immune to nonmagical bludgeoning) and they are also very resistant to nonmagical damage (have resistance to nonmagical, piercing, slashing damage, and magical bludgeoning). Not only can they be launched by smasher guardians but they can also be launched out of special cannons and they will mainly target enemy airships and that means when fired at the hull area they can breach and cause havoc inside mainly the engine room and if they sense the airship is going down, they can simply go into their sphere form and go overboard receiving minimal to no damage from the fall and so they can be repaired and reused to take down more enemy airships. Now for their main weapons, they will use these ranged weapons that the invaders had, these things called firearms they will use as their weapons they can also use their sphere body to run over some enemies with their heavy body. Now for the leader of the Castle Crashers Gamma, he will be designed with a stronger body, 20x larger than a cannonball, and more firepower than the other Castle Crashers and with its stronger body it is immune to damage from falling or being launched. He can also be used as a weapon for large guardians like smashers (also Sentinel Prime’s enlarged form) to use (count as a +2 martial weapon with a reach of 15ft and it’s based on the creature’s stat of what the attack bonus will be and its damage will be 4d12 bludgeoning damage+creature’s STR mod and it counts as a siege weapon that does double damage to buildings and constructions.) Special Guardian Units Design4: Overhauls Leading the Overhauls: Guardian Delta Overhauls are master repair guardians and they all have a magical compartment in their chest (imagine Wall-E chest compartment) that has an equal amount of space to a bag of holding that stores spare parts needed to repair guardians, all their sizes and models vary so they can be identified what specific guardians they can repair quickly. The fingertips of Overhauls can become any type of tool needed to repair guardians. The skills of Overhauls are that they are able to repair a severely damaged guardian in approximately 10 minutes if there aren’t any interruptions and have the right amount of spare parts. Now for the leader of the Overhauls Delta has a design of being noticeably the shortest Overhaul being 4ft 7in and from a short design, Delta is able to move and repair more quickly than any other Overhaul and has 3x the compartment space for spare parts as well as have the knowledge to repair any type of guardian since the models vary and each specific model can repair a few specific guardians and not any type of guardian like Delta.

@@o.d.d.5437 where did all this info came from? Plus I was thinking along the lines how sentry is unique with paladin like abilities and magic. I was think project Zeus to be more of a rough tech style where inside there’s a magic power giving this Guardian lightning magic with some built material components for lightning related spells and other possible spells like “confusion” or the cantrip “message”. Then later down the road these other designs could be made in mass so it wouldn’t cost as much as making a Guardian using magic. For example: building Zeus I think would cost 30k gold while building 10 Predator guardians would cost 5k taking a month to build either or

@@wyattfrye8262 all the info came from my head and to sum up the predator guardians they basically have the look and toughness of the dark troopers from the Mandolorian season 2 and the finesse skills of Mandalorian warriors they even have the wrist flamethrowers like mandolorians. I just wanted to share my ideas of what new guardians they can make since Aetherium is unique only to Aerois AFTER the sundering since it didn't exist during Kallus's first invasion

@@o.d.d.5437 that is rather cool. I just hope Rihanna is thinking like how is she going to start the new generation of guardians. If Mark does a pull on guardian builds we can do you should try and get their attention with you’re ideas it’d be amazing to make it happen and mark to be like “alright gusthaven is on a budget and can either do 1 lvl 20 guardian or 10 lvl 5 guardians for the next 10 months before the cradle drops what would you like them to start building?”
