%% date:: [[2023-08-01]] %% # [[099_20230801 Shyndyr and the judgment]] ## Session Summary > [!tldr] [[099_20230801 Shyndyr and the judgment]] > After some discussion, some strong words from Wally convinced us to stay and try to fight Shyndyr, the gold dragon. Three of us fall unconscious during the fight, but we get a long rest instead! With this help, we defeated Shyndyr. We got golden dragon scale mail for Wally, for our victory. > > We went through the door, where we found an angel lounging on an ornate throne. There are five empty pedestals, one for each of us. This was the third trial: either to fight the angel, or to tell them our deepest, darkest fear. We decided to tell them our true fears, after which the angel, Apeilon, gave Xenia a fire opal-like gem in the shape of a winged phoenix. Then, they granted us passage through the door, and after we walked through, we found ourselves in a pitch black cave, in front of a pool of water. We've just come out from behind a waterfall! ^summary %% ## Video [Andy's video, dirty version](https://youtu.be/4LTIfyfyXkA) [Andy's video, clean version](https://youtu.be/4ez0VD2HX4c) 00:00:00 Recap 00:01:29 Andy's OnlyFans 00:02:41 Xenia was better before 00:03:17 Take a breast 00:05:34 Wally has big words and a floppy spear 00:07:39 Andy makes dirty jokes 00:09:20 Group jaeger 00:10:58 What's wrong with us? 00:13:59 Roll for initiative 00:14:16 Getting off quickly 00:15:50 Andy is presumptuous 00:16:18 Sometimes you have to roll by hand 00:16:34 Round 1 - Shyndyr's turn 00:22:05 Andy can do Wally 00:22:37 Scura was faffing about 00:23:04 Scura's turn (Moonbeam) 00:24:20 Dragon form 00:25:22 Wally's turn (potion of flying) 00:27:14 Milla's turn (chromatic orb) 00:27:50 It's almost like Andy didn't prepare 00:33:53 Dax's turn (needle dispenser) 00:36:15 Xenia's turn (Firebolt) 00:40:13 Round 2 - Shyndyr's turn (cone breath) 00:42:37 Scura gets bingo! 00:46:24 Scura's turn (Twilight Sanctuary) 00:49:10 Andy's so tired because they wouldn't leave him alone 00:49:50 Attach it right this time 00:50:20 Just move a bit closer 00:52:43 Wally's turn (Potion of Resistance) 00:54:19 Attach it more securely 00:54:35 Andy keeps grabbing Wally 00:56:25 Milla's turn (Chromatic Orb) 00:57:51 Dax's turn 00:59:48 3B just wears flats the whole time 01:00:07 Xenia's turn 01:01:04 The lollipop comes out 01:02:16 Lollipop fun 01:03:47 Round 3 - Shyndyr's turn 01:04:40 She attacks with her mouth 01:05:25 Where's Wally? 01:07:07 Andy complains about D&D Beyond's UI 01:09:25 Scura's turn 01:12:03 Wally's turn (Thunderous Smite) 01:13:52 Milla's turn 01:16:51 Dax's turn 01:21:42 Xenia's turn (Shocking Grope) 01:23:16 Round 4 - Shyndyr's turn (breath) 01:27:20 Do we want to continue? 01:29:53 More lollipop fun 01:32:20 Scura's turn 01:35:00 Wally's turn (HDYWTDT) 01:42:12 Greedy 01:43:14 Break, and then we enter the door 01:44:20 Double lollipoppers 01:46:20 Talking to Apeilon 01:48:04 Wally gets judged (skipped for now) 01:49:32 Xenia gets judged 01:57:14 Dax gets judged 01:59:35 Milla gets judged 02:08:04 Scura gets judged 02:12:56 Back to Dax (what's YOUR fear?) 02:20:46 Who are you to be judging us? 02:26:19 Xenia takes the gem 02:31:01 That's where we'll leave it tonight %% --- ## Recap ![[ttrpgs/Temporary White Circle/098_20230725 What's a little chloroform among friends#^summary]] --- ## Log > [!info] What Wally said... > Wally is inspired by the last opponents. He too will refuse to yield and see this trial to the end even if it means death ( I’m hoping the dragon or the magic of this place will revive him) after all this is a test, not just how strong we are but also our strength of will. ![[1690914901035 - Combat]] - BA: - A: Aleteana Wally - BA: Thunderous Smite - A: Attack Golden dragon scale mail - resistance to fire. We go through the door. There's a bright, grand, ornate throne with an [[Apeilon|angel]] lounging on it. The walls depict champions in frescoes. Angel whose wings burn with sunlit fire on throne. Their voice is melodic. There are five empty pedestals. There's one more trial. What punishment should we face? Should we challenge them, or tell them our deepest, darkest fear? - Xenia - Deepest, darkest fear?: Living on while those who are younger die. - Would he like the markings removed?: No. - Dax - You called upon the divine even while denying they exist. - Dax would have challenged them. - Deepest darkest fear: that the Golden Hills are not real - Milla - You didn't live up to the adventurous spirit of your father. - Deepest, darkest fear: That people will eventually catch up to her. - Her brother was with her and they got separated. She doesn't know what happened to him. She fell through a portal into the Feywild and she doesn't know what happened. - She's afraid that he died because he helped her. - Why do you hide your charms?: She doesn't want to put any more people in danger. - She feels not brave because she left. - Milla has daddy issues. He had her and then left. That wasn't very brave. She doesn't want to have anything to do with him. - Apeilon is their name. Our celestial adjudicator. - Scura - You appear innocent, but there is a violence inside. - Do you believe yourself to be a god, with powers to grant life and death? - If you had no powers, would you submit? If your god and goddess left you, would you submit to their whim?: Yes, because I trust them. - Deepest darkest fear: that I will be the reason for someone's undoing or dying, and it will be through a lack of vigilance that someone dies on my watch. - - They hold out something small, flat, and bird-like that spins on her palm. - Xenia takes it. - It's made of some golden orange gemstone. Winged shape like American Eagle. 20 cm width and height. 1 cm thick. It's shaped like a phoenix. Fire opal We walk through the door and we hear the rushing of water. We're in a cave opening. We're in pitch black. In front of us is a pool of water. Right in front of us is a waterfall. WE're behind a waterfall. It's cold and damp and dark. LEVEL UP!!!
