Mark eating in character as goblin is everything I ever wanted but did not know I wanted
I've been binging Aerois, committed to watching the whole thing and catching up, and it really has been "Oops all bangers." There hasn't been a dull episode for like 15 episodes.
Well do you still watch it
"I did wonder where her penchant for daggers came from."
"Yeah... Sorry."
Knew I wasn't the only one who noticed 😆
Rhiannons reactions makes me smile.
This Campaign got me through a lot of the first few weeks of deployment. I never got to get to this episode and by the time I got back into it I hadn't listened for almost two years! So far, this has been my most favorite episode! Was getting emotional the last 10 minutes or so.
Man, I can't remember the last time I was THIS invested in a D&D stream. From the moment the forge statue came back online, I was completely hooked. SENTRYYYYYYYYYYY!!!
Have you watched their lightfall campaign?
@@Bacalh4s I have. And it was GREAT. I just have a bad memory and can't remember what parts made me the most excited back then, :P
Case in point is, High Rollers is awesome.
@@MasterMygrane true, it is an amazing story!
Lucius with the goblins is like "I'M THE DADDY NOW!!"
*High-pitched but evil laughter*
"Look at me. I'm the Daddy now."

Thank you~
Not all heroes wear capes ❤️
Thank you sir
@@oguguaobidike9251 you'll catch up one day
@ I apologize to your excellency as I am behind on this greatness, I'm in your care
As serious and wonderfully artistic that Mark is, we all love it when he plays zany, weird characters (e.g. Tharizdun the beholder in Lightfall, the flaming skull in the Descent, Neville from Rosehall, Dean Simon from Kaellie's rest)
Attendant:"Would you like me to upgrade Sentry's weapons and armor?"
Rollers:"DOES A BEAR SHIT IN THE WOODS?!?!" XD
Don't forget Aila's feral sense giving her advantage on dex saves she can see

@@tammogaming4824 thx
Oh my gosh!! Rhi's hardly containable joy at the thought of Sentry coming back warms my heart! What an episode, well done everyone, and well done Mark!! Now we're just missing Quill, cry. SENTRY NEEDS HER BIRDY BOY!!!
(P.S. stupid sexy Calus.)
Lucius was the most useful character in this episode. He did Novas job and he also protected the goblins.
I got so damn giddy seeing Sentry come back, seeing Rhiannons reaction and just aaah I was so happy but of course that damn last question!!
The reaction of those of us re-watching this episode: THE BIRTH OF SMEEK! May Tom's bane forever reign!
"FORGE SOUNDS LIKE TOO MUCH OF A RISK GUYS LET'S GO TO THE DRUID"
and they where never sponsored by Nord VPN again
@Jorn Hertsig between that comment and now ive wayched all of season 2....yeah yeah they are
I'd love it so much if they could put the flower crown onto this grumpy goblin man xD it'd be amazingggggg
1:39:42 Lucius had me worried there. I was wondering what he had to do to "Daddy's exotic... weapons"
uwu
Ik! But like is no one getting talk about being attack verbally?
Was i the only one who started screeching "she doesnt know" when mark mentioned Quill during Sentrys awakening
I was screeching "ROBOT MOM IS BACK YEAH!!!"
I love SMEEK! He should be a party mascot.
Trott's foreign accents are still better than Sam's though. 🤣🤣🤣
I feel nothing but pity for D&D Beyond. Between Sam and Trott... yeesh.
nott my president
I love how when he said "Wizards and Clerics" he pointed to tom because quill was a cleric

This was fun, but safe to say that the goblin meat shields weren't the best idea. The transforming map though! That was totally unexpected. This episode became super plot heavy towards the end. Sentry's memories, Starbane's chat with nova, the maiden's forge, Halls of infinite resplendence, the prime itself, this is a ton of info to take in. Also, with Aila's new abilities and Solwyn being underwater, will the Archipelago arc be a girl squad mission? Thanks for the amazing episode.
2:49:13
You mean to tell me that little bramble baby echo can be her mount?!
in the earlier episode it was "killing these goblins is like killing stupid babies" and now (to the characters its like an hour later) "lets use these stupid goblins as meatshields and trap activators" i like the way they think :D
Mark Hulmes, "You can tell something is happening in the cube."
Somewhere Sam Reigel: "Behold! The cube!"
I love how Kim is so uncomfortable speaking with Callus that she rocks herself the whole time. That immersion!
Tom really is the 'THAT GUY' of the group.
1:04:02 so much for goblin resilience
1:08:53 which requires you hit on your melee strike first...
2:51:20 and Lucius' CLUTCH spell
Discovered this series a few months ago during a bout with insomnia. Looooove the story you all have going. It's made me addicted to D&D 🤣
When Lucius casts hypnotic cube I was screaming at my phone “don’t you dare make those saving throws Mark!!!”
Spoilers below
Omg Solven is basically Atlantis and I love this so much
Katie's face during Trott's NordVPN promo 😆😂🤣
The Nord VPN ad gave me a whole new appreciation for Sam Riegel.
2:35:52 I thought it was Nightfrost from the deep raspy-ish voice... my reaction went from "Oh my god hes back!! :D" to "...Oh my god, hes back 😨"

SENTRY NEEDS HER BIRDY BOY
I'm so happy that Sentry is back! now with a really cool mount too. It was the perfect place to end on "Where's Quil?"! Excellent map and combat, Mark. Were the consoles hand-made? Starbane - Nova dialog was very cool.
Also glad Arvil got a mention 😄, hopefully he will eventually get news that the team is ok ( well when they revie Quil too of course 😅) and he will get back to Goldthrone and resume his life. One day I hope the party eventually go to Goldthrone and chill with Arvil, tell him their story.
I can't wait to meet Lucius' Daddy
I'm catching up on this series and oh my fucking God same , he's gonna be huge asshole and ailh is gonna kick his ass and everyone is gonna stand up for him and it will be emotionally satisfieing
Update , just started
ep 45 : maiden voyage.
BIG SAD ( but also that new arm thing for Lucius is sick and his sister is awesome)
Yeah but I was really hoping for asshole daddy, figure out out went on in Lucius’s family. Maybe we might some details here and there tho
Every episode I think it’s not possible to enjoy High Rollers even more... and then I watch the episode
I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH
SENTRY IS BACK!!!!!!!! I was starting to get worried that she would stay dead forever!
I miss so much content just listening to the podcast!! Holy COW! Trott! You are an absolute amazement! Nordic VPN!! 😂😂😂
now time to see them go to daddy and explain all that happen and use daddy's welth to revive quill
sicroto drocata nah they’re gonna have quillek either gone for god or revived by then and use daddy’s money to find solwyn
The groups name should Valiant Misfortune in honor of Valor and just how unlucky they are
In honor of Vala
Not to shoot down an excellent name, Starbane's daughter's name was Vala.
Uh well this just got akward
@@lukerunnebaum4337 Va.. Vala... Valaiant? Valaiant Misfortune?
I would actually say Un/Dying. Un and or Dying. *hit*
Thanks for all the silly stuff in this episode. I've been getting over a crush and this has really helped me.
me too buddy, it gets better trust me -a random person on the internet-
Name suggestions:
Storm's guard
Aeoris' wrath
Quill and the Birbs!
Dammit Callus you sound like a good dad which makes it that much harder to hate you.
Sexy good dad
‘This guy is such a bad dude, he’s using his goblins as meat shields, and now he’s using us as meat shields too.’
-Goblins get slaughtered in the first fight-
‘Hey, another round of meat shie- I mean goblins to help us out please!’
Lucius will now forever be Louie from Pikmin. Thanks Rhiannon
46:54
Nova: could we take a short rest?
Me: YHEEESSSS thank youuuu!!! i was waiting for someone to pleeeaaaase bring this up before going into this situation
2:50:47 MARK'S FACE!!!!
OMG!!! Welcome back Sentry!!!! Damn that made me cry of joy!!! Mark u are the best DM ever!! And guys.. I love u!! I enjoy watching u guys so much!! Great RP! Great work! Love it
Mark's goblins are the best goblins.
End of break 1:32:49
I hope it is useful
Np
It was
I have never "thumbs up" a video as fast as when Trott began his sponsor add :D
Gave me serious Sam Riegel vibes. It was amazing :D
The rest of the episode was cool too, I guess... :D
37:20
Lucious: oh wait.... i'm having a thinky....
Aila: oh ghoddd
xD xD xD xD xD xDxD xD xD xD xD xD xD xD xD xD
Ahhhh Sentry!!!! My fav character I’m so glad she’s back! I’m normally a podcast listener but had to watch the video for Rhiannon’s face! I love high rollers so much 😄❤️
Dan Smith Really hoping that was a Doctor Who reference! I never read the comments till I’m done with the video, just in case! ☺️
Phoebe Gregory I’m just kinda sad that Oriya is gonna have to leave
Jonathanno7 _ yeah I know, I think she’s a great character but I just love sentry so much! ❤️
Dan Smith I agree! Though one of my favourite moments of this campaign was Oriya saying she made bets on the fishing boats 😂
Ah, yes, the rise of Smeek
THIS WAS A GREAT EP I AM STILL CRYING THANK YOU GUYS
best ad i have ever seen
I am sat here giggling
Trott's shirt is great
WoW!!! Rhiannon has a wonderful singing voice. Who knew...
Third time watching and I still tear up when Sentry comes back to life.

"You'll never know what we just did before we went live" I don't need sleep, I need answers
Many congrats guys: finally! Awesome as ever. A tearjerker
So the fall of Solven is a mix between the Doom of Valyria and Atlantis
break end 1:32:47
So....did anyone else notice that he talked to nova and she said they were good when birdy was DEAD?? And he said he might be able to talk to birdy in his dreams aswell and SHE DIDNT NOTICE TO MENTION HE WAS DEAD?? She could have gotten another way to save him! Still though! Really good ep!
I can see either Nova (and Kim) being overwhelmed with the Appearance of Callus, and forgetting to mention it, or choosing not to mention it as she didn't want to worry Valla.
MARKS SMEE (HOOK REFERENCE IS AMAZING)
I love the high rollers
Wait...wait a minute. Is Hadar the "Star" in "Starbane"?
Hadar is basically a sentient neutron star that is also an evil deity.
@@RokuroCarisu I think we're aware of what Hadar is at this point. I was referring to the *name* Starbane, as in Calus Starbane is/intends to be the bane of Hadar.
Nah, Calus is a just a copycat of me.
I was being the bane of Celestial objects way before it was cool.
Yes I am pretty sure he is. I pieced that together myself back when Nova had the dream of Hadar and how the Eterna were terrified of him much more than Starbane. I even remembered how Mark said in the beginning of the series that there are moons void of all life that act as the shadowfell and are infested with zombies which also the reason why it caused the spirits unrest. I pieced together myself that Hadar hungers for life like he does in the Forgotten Realms and is a star like in the forgotten realms as he goes from place to place consuming all life to sustain himself. Starbane seeing this wishes to unite all planets against this threat which Siasca refused to do instead trying to change him. Seeing as she was not going to join willingly he killed her and instead decided to conquer the planet to use its population as soldiers to fight Hadar. Siasca sealed the world off from space and even probably sealed her children's visions of the other planets along with it which explains why Hesper is blind anything that deals with other worlds. I think the gods are bound to the world and cannot leave to begin with though as well. This whole conclusion i thought up also explains how he got the eterna to work with him they are all terrified of hadar so thus he asked them to join him but saw use for them as energy sources rather than soldiers.
Conclusion to this thesis for everyone that says "TLDR"- Starbane does evil things for a very, VERY good reason and the gods are not as innocent as they seem.
@@Neo3151 I mean, he seems to be wasting so much time, resources and effort just for a single planet, it seems quite stupid. I doubt he is actually choosing the most efficient way to fight Hadar.
lucius mvp with his charming
They're about to rez Sentry and they're wasting time on the goblins 😂
Glad that Sentry is back, but I am going to miss Oriya, she is badass and a great character ... :)
Wait a minute, is Kallus the new Korrac
Of course, mark loves the old villain to good guy switcheroo
Absolutely balling tears at this episode
bro waching mark eat is making me hungrey af
“Lucius sit!” -Clomp!-
Oriya is probs gonna leave now :(
Olarson Domingo Yes that would be absolutely amazing
Oriya will probably follow the group now like how Arvell and Vallah did before they got teleported out of Callie’s Rest
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 wow big well done to everyone but Mark!! You are awesome dude! Super story telling man
So good. What a great episode!
2:40:14 would this mean that Callis is lawful neutral with this wording its just he's done some iffy stuff.
He has slain the chicken of McNuggets, sir McDonald will be very put out.
They had me in the 4 first minutes
is trott still a beautiful butterfly?
One like eqauls a nickel more tip for sedrick the goblin
So happy I going to cry
Hey quick question. Where or what do the amazing people at high rollers use for the background music? It sets such an amazing ambiance, I'd love to add this flair to my sessions..
#bingedwatchedthiswholecampaigninlike3days
Rhiannon is a really good singer! 1:06:34
For some reason Vesec HEAVILY reminds me of Bierce from Dark Deception
@HighRollersDnD how do you work the expanded spell list into Trott's character sheet
YESSS! CONTENT BOIIIIISSS
And GAALLLLZZZZ
Omg...... the end..... it was hard to watch, I love them all
Is Tiangong still alive- in lack of a better word- because it hasn't been mentioned in a while.
So it looks like Lucius is using a lot of spells that aren't on the sorcerer spell list. His luscious light thing (warlock spell) and acid arrow (wizard spell) are two examples. Sorry if you knew already, I just remember from a previous episode that Trott made this mistake before.
The healing spirit was an issue with D&D Beyond telling him that it was available to sorcerers, I think. The ones you listed, though, are almost definitely part of him being an Arcane Chromat. Trott and Mark even confirmed that they had discussed the reflavoring of Hunger of Hadar into Lucius' Luscious Light beforehand, around the first time that he'd cast it.
Love the series. It’s a great different take to how critical role does it.
I understand it must suck doing the higher voice all the time and whatnot but isn’t trott still cursed? So higher voice and all the flaws with it? It’s a very great item for him, but he is always Role-playing as his character just not cursed
