I've said this before but I must say kind bird, I greatly appreciate your act of kindness. As someone who uses their phone to watch the show most of the time, seeing your barrier instead of a random comment that could potentially spoil a plot point in the episode has impacted my happiness greatly.
@@Karkinos_ I am very happy to hear that I’m making a positive impact on people! When I started the anti spoiler barrier I wasn’t sure if it would be successful, the support from people like you who like and send amazing comments is why the barrier has been so successful and i keep posting it. I try to like every comment to my barriers as it’s not me, but the HR community that keeps the barrier alive by liking it to keep it at the top.
Mark really did a great job of voicing Obsidius as a menacing threat. This was a superior character moment for Tom and the NPC. I really was on the edge.
Tom's character choice to lean into the prideful itch and voice something that might be detrimental for Obsidius just to maybe get a hint of balance on all the things that are stacked against him. Loved that whole sceen
SPOILER Obsideus: Well, you could just die. The crown steel could be removed from you then Xantheus: But then I'd be DEAD! Ophelia: If you accept the Grey Father into your heart that needn't be a problem
Meat of the fleshy milk nuts sounds uhhh, but unironically giant vanilla bean coconuts seem like they'd amazing, fantasy food is always a fun detail lol.
42:12 A good message to remember. It's some thing you made. It doesn't matter if it's 'good' or 'bad'. You made it. And that's what counts. Besides, in the words of Jake, "Sucking at something is the first step to being kind of good at it."
As an artist, this festival and all of this appreciation of art and creation resonates with me so much. I wish this was a thing in real life. I'm not a believer but if there was such a wholesome god of creation and art, that's the one I could follow ♥️
After the mechanics and conflict full prior two episodes this was a great worldbuilding and RP rich episode. Despite the awesome moments with Xantheus and Gruff, I'm probably not alone with loving the toilet humour of Rowan the most.
That entire scene with Obsideus and Xantheus felt charged. The guards who were semi-present for the first part had some shit to discuss off the clock later.
You know, as a character addition, giving Rowan a finicky magical gun would be chaotically great. Xantheus and Obsidius is a dragon dance I loved seeing play out! Also, how does Ophelia NOT own a set of dress robes or ceremonial robes?? She's a diplomat, she should have at least one or two fancy outfits. Maybe now that she has a mailing address (and shrine) the House of Blood can send her some.
This is in no way a criticism to anyone, but I wish anyone (Daisy, probably) would have made a piece with the inn and Tayrea (dunno the spelling) not as the Scarred Lady, but just herself, with a prayer for her safety and closure.
I love these episodes, the story and adventure, the comedy. This team is so amazing. (my play back quality is set to HD1080.....but I'm still only getting 480 quality...which is less amazing.)
i think rhi would just win dnd if she managed to turn one of the draconic nobles into a dracolich especially ignarius. although of that family obsidious would be the dracolich.
Lightfall is awesome too, definitely worth the time. Curse of strahd is a bit shorter overall but still great! I'm rewatching aerois right now for the 2nd time, love that campaign!
@@splooshmagoosh8251it is a bit rougher in terms of sound quality and such, as they are finding their feet with both dnd mechanics and the format, but still well worth a watch. Plus, you get moments such as green screen falling down, granny Trellimar, nap snek and THARIZDUN (no, not the chained oblivion). Plus plenty of cool moments and some great guest players.
Trott got some crème brûlée at some con and dragged the rest of them over to get some, just on closing time. The poor shop keep had to suddenly produce 6 crème brûlées when they were just ready to go home.
What do you not understand is it the role play side or the rules side ? The end of the day the rules side is just roll D20 ad modifier that's the basic concept you can play without any other rules it would not be the best game ever because there would be some balance issues but you could realistically play .
ANTI SPOILER BARRIER

The powers that be have noticed the birb! Glad they got that Anti-Spolier Barrier pinned for the good of all. Congratulations! You've earned it.

Commenting so I don’t ruin the 69 likes
The smile on Toms face when says "Am I still pinned to the wall"
Xantheus's interaction with Obsidius is an awesome character moment!
I knew. I KNEW as soon as the conquest started that tom was gonna empower in front of everybody because CHAOS and look where we are

The Xantheus and Obsidius moment made me feel genuinely nervous, I thought Xantheus was done for.
Amazing role play and amazing story telling!
11:36 From the makers of kitchen gun, dice gun is here for your DnD needs
1:29:45 Rhiannon crying in laughter for at least 2 minutes straight, best moment of part 1
My fave bit by far
SPOILER
Obsideus: Well, you could just die. The crown steel could be removed from you then
Xantheus: But then I'd be DEAD!
Ophelia: If you accept the Grey Father into your heart that needn't be a problem
I had this Exact thought. Would be Such an Insane path to follow.
Meat of the fleshy milk nuts sounds uhhh, but unironically giant vanilla bean coconuts seem like they'd amazing, fantasy food is always a fun detail lol.
kobolds shoveling sh!t as duke ignarius oversees their work ethic is some prime fanart real estate.
I was soooo stressed because of Xan‘s sass towards a literal dragon when I watched this live 😭
It was going great - until Tom decided it would be a brilliant idea to try and blackmail him. I expected Xan to end up in ashes after that.
So happy for Kim! Congratulations on making Knight Errant! 🎉🔥

1:15:50 Massive appreciation for Tom singing Hugh Laurie's Mystery when asked to roll History. Exactly how my brain works + I love that song 😂

They got lost overboard in the difficult voyage across the sea from Ossius to Ilmera.
Or at least, that's my headcanon. ;)
Oh that's good! Maybe she can get a big box sent to her now. She has to look even more fab now that she has a ✨shrine✨
Not gonna lie, I thought the "Consequences" were gonna be Rowan shitting himself.
-Rowan Almost Shit Himself
-Gruff became a Knight Errant
-Xantheus got roped into something by Obsideus
lots of consequences. many bad, some good
I thought that the Knights that Xantheus was hiding from had got a hold of him.
it *is* kind of wild to blackmail someone with them letting you live and keeping your secret
I’m digging these soundtracks
if anything except happiness and joy happens to bliss i can't be held responsible for my actions

Such an awesome episode! Lots of laughs and also some cool tense moments!
First one I got to watch on Sunday. You guys are great.
I need two episodes a week please
Rowan is such an innocent sweetheart
I didn't watch for a bit so I could binge it... I think I left it longer than I intended
I'm gonna be honest, ever since he was introduced, I don't know how much I trust Obsidius - lowkey was cheering for Xantheus with the sass >:D
Lmao that thumbnail 😂😂😂 figures they would lean into it sooo hard 😂😂😂😂😂
But what about the jousting? Did Ser Griold win?
Things are heating up in the shipping community. Xantheus X Obsidious goes hard lol
The tension was not sexual..but it could totally be :D
Can't blame them, that scene was juicy 😳
SO MUCH TENSION
My immediate thought!
Just listened to this in podcast form and had to see the facial expressions here because *goddamn*
Loved this episode *-* yay for Gruff❤
I kinda do want Xantheus to go directly to Ignarius for help. Y'know, accept his offer, maybe declare war on Gildai.
Seabuckthorn is very popular in Mongolia, oddly enough.
Noooooooo I just caught up and binged for a week
I need to draw obsidious (obsideus?) so bad but I need to finish xantheus first. Too many shiny things to draw! I must have them all
I have a feeling it's that second one, Obsideus. Assuming it's a draconic naming convention. And good luck with both pieces.
@@MorinehtarTheBlue yeah it’s in line with xantheus as well so probably and thank you :)
Too good an episode!
When Gruff finishes being a knight and retires he should open a tavern called the Oak & Thorn
FOR THE EMPRESS!!!! FOR THE ALGORITHM!!!!!
The wall slam 👀
The tension between Obsidius and Xantheus.. oh lord. I can smell the fics and fanart.
Anyone else see Tom's typical movements very bird like?
Some leftover aracockra energy from the last campaign. :P
Birds, dragons, same ancestry, all lizards
YAAAAY Gruffudd i'm sobbing
I paused the video at the first second and someone thought I paused a naughty video because of the sound. 😅
8:12 episode starts
2:53:59 Episode ends
That thumbnail is spicy
Can we call the strange plant that Xan like something like Crown Vine or something similar 😅😅
There was way too much chemistry in that interaction.
I'm disappointed Ser Ryker's drinking horn wasn't filled with mead.
“I’m gonna come.”
1:46:08 break ends
Loved the models painted by plasmashock? In the fan art wish my paining was that good
I ship Obsidius and Xantheus now
Eh, I still ship Xantheus and Ophelia
I had no ships *until* this episode, nothing really got my attention.
@@TRivan-kx2bioh gosh I thought I was the only one! I just love the 'let's encourage each other down the slippery slope to bad decisions' vibe
i think rhi would just win dnd if she managed to turn one of the draconic nobles into a dracolich especially ignarius. although of that family obsidious would be the dracolich.
I know this isn’t the best place but I’m about to finish Aerois 2 campaign! What should I watch next? Their lightfall one? Curse of strahd?
Lightfall is awesome too, definitely worth the time. Curse of strahd is a bit shorter overall but still great! I'm rewatching aerois right now for the 2nd time, love that campaign!
@@RedneckWraith good to know! I’ll jump into lightfall next! I need something to watch during the week after I watch Altheya!!
@@splooshmagoosh8251it is a bit rougher in terms of sound quality and such, as they are finding their feet with both dnd mechanics and the format, but still well worth a watch.

I thought they would have taken advantage of the learning opportunities during the festival
What's the Crème Brûlée thing! Must know!!
Trott got some crème brûlée at some con and dragged the rest of them over to get some, just on closing time. The poor shop keep had to suddenly produce 6 crème brûlées when they were just ready to go home.
Oh dear. Poor shop keep. However, that is the risk you play when you stock yummy desserts, or sausage rolls. Did something similar at Greggs once.
is there a reason for the resolution to be lower ? love your channel keep it up
Think of the roses you'd get with dragon manure though.
I want that STL
Rowan is hilarious.
sorry but I got to the end of half 1, and now I want Obsidius/Xantheus to be canon
Also asking for a compilation of the anti dragon movement
🔖 2:50:00
Tom is so funny man
wish i understood D&D. been wanting to play it for over a year =/

The end of the day the rules side is just roll D20 ad modifier that's the basic concept you can play without any other rules it would not be the best game ever because there would be some balance issues but you could realistically play .
You could also play something like Baldurs Gate 3 and pick up how the game mechanics work along the way
7:11
That was hot lol
First?
Damn it you beat me!
First
Tom interrupts a lot.
If it was a real problem they would have discussed it with him in the many years they've played together.
@@CRITTER_FROG maybe or maybe not. Do you know them well? Just my opinion anyways.
