VOD SQUAD! Hey bois I've been watching high rollers ever since my brother crashed my truck and i was forced to leave the state I was in for work, high rollers has given me 3 hours of peace and the community around it has made me feel happy to watch . Keep it up, Daddy loves you.
I like to think with starbane out arvil has built up an army thinking that he killed all his friends and is giving starbane the fight of his life right now
I think it's been like a few days since the Abbey break-in, I imagine now that, the cleansing operation was stopped, things are ok, as the Abbetess and her lieutenants were took by the demons, the Ashbringers were like "what do we do now?" Starbane would have gone somewhere to collect forces, leaving no trace behind. After the mourning days, I assume Malika could have helped the good priests and clear out the Abbey. The party and maybe Valla are announced missing. Arvil, with no clue to where the party or Valla have gone, would have continued, kind of sad, to Goldthrone.
vergil tasev your story up to the end makes a lot of sense and I can agree with it but I feel arvil is emotionally invested in this misfit band of travelers and once announced missing would stop at nothing to find them
@@sams.5514 That is very true, he went through a lot with the party and was so ready to adopt Valla 😁. I am now trying to figure out a way for him to start from somewhere. Do you think that Starbane would have left the wild elf and the priests at least remembering what happened?
@@sams.5514 Yeah, Starbane is not a just-for-the-sake-of-it killer. I hope this gets brought up soon or at some point. Maybe like a donation question or in one of Mark's "Behind the screen" episodes.
Well lucuis has never been afraid of hard work or getting his hands dirty. Well maybe afraid but a logical fear of tough opponents. Like even in the beginning he's never been like I'm rich you should do everything for me. He's just been really naive
Nova's development has been heartwarming and interesting to see. I'd like to see where it goes in the future. Aila playing the tough has also been heartwarming as well as particularly funny
For those interested in RAW DND there are a few, but not many options to overcome the limitations of how long you can hold your breath underwater. Theirs the Cap of Water Breathing(creates an air bubble), the Water Breathing ritual spell, Alter Shape's aquatic adaptation option (gives water breathing and also gives you a swimming speed = to your walking speed), Air Genasi's infinite breath, Water Genasi's aquatic adaptation(breathing and swim speed). Anyone got any other RAW DND options? I personally love the idea of an undewater adventure so much, that i'd suggest the custom item of "The Ring of Aquatic Adaptation". this silver ring resembles a sea serpent devouring a pearl and by using an action the wearer can gain an aquatic adaption for 1 hour, once per a day.
Assametry not entirely true. Spellcaster generally have at least one of the mentioned spells they can cast outside of water, to help. If that spells Change shape, they gain aquatic lunge, which allows them to do v and s components normally.
@@Assametry there are spells without verbal components, you'd have to have a bit of foresight to get them but still, and with still spell you have at least a few shots
@ High Rollers DnD While I know I'm incredibly late to this reply/debate on gryphons being mammal or bird, my answer to this is why not both? If we were to compare a gryphon to something of our animal kingdom, they would most likely be a predatory Monotreme so something like a platypus or an echidna. They're not quite birds but not quite mammals either, but that's just an idea of mine *shrugs*
Well, this is why the Monstrosity creature type exists. While the Griffon is anatomically (and perhaps behaviourally) similar to two creatures that would be Beasts in their own right, as a hybrid it is technically neither.
Tom is not a rules lawyer 😂. Dudes missing a fucking eye and had broken ribs for like a 3 days. Keeping to the system and reminding the group about rules they all agreed to play under does not a rules lawyer make. Rules lawyers will stop the game to have an argument with the dm about something.
Haha come on guys surely a lvl 5 warlock doesn't need to look up what kind of dmg EB does!🤣 I feel like Aerois is going to be really amazing when ppl learn what they're doing!
Rope management critical fail Why did the non-swim team go through to a dead end? How do they not realise that everyone should go back to the start? And that the rope has to come with them? Oh, and it gets worse... why does... (how to despoiler)... why does Nova not do what she does in the opposite direction?
Not too hard to wrap your head around an oversized crossbow, so at most it'd be like "well that's a big crossbow" rather than an "I don't know what that is"
In the monster manual it states that Hippogriff give birth to live young… that means there is definitely one beaked animal that is suckling… In the real world both pidgins and penguins produce milk for their young
01:30:00 Griffins Griffen Griffenn Griffinn Griffon Griffonn Griffyn Griffynn Griphphen Griphphin Griphphinn Griphphon Griphphyn Gryffen Gryffin Gryffon Gryffyn Gryffynn Gryphphyn are omnivores, feeding on both berries and other animals. Griffins lay eggs in batches of 1-4 every few years. The eggs will incubate for three months before they hatch. It has to be either bird or mammal! No middle ground. They are mythological, so it's entirely up to you. They literally are a combination of lions and eagles, which makes them a hybrid.
Maybe i didnt hear it, but did Tom say he was still sending messages to Kim? Because you would really need to state that your doing so, and even if he did Kim wasn't aware so... great idea on message but less great execution :/
You are so WRONG! No way Griffins are mammals. Can you imagine breast feeding babies with those sharp beaks? Plus, while not a mammal deal breaker, I am pretty sure they lay eggs.
@@tygeron3145 on top of having fur giving live birth (platypus being the exception) they also lactate, griffins feed their young regurgitated meat like an eagle feeds their young
Porcupine and hedgehog babies are born with soft quills that harden overtime. A beak might be able to do the same since it is not needed for pecking that early in life. Also agree with the platypus thing. Platypus also lick milk off their mothers instead of having a test. Many feline/canine carnivores tear small or munched chunks of meat for their young. Similar behaviour may not mean similar internal physiology.
I know I’m waaay behind but I really hope Tom stops questioning rules all the time. I appreciate that there are rules for a reason but these guys really aren’t doing anything game-breaking. Some people might find his whole quirky nerd persona funny but it really irks me when *in a Kim voice* my immersion is ruined everytime he does it.
"Watch Commander" lmao. I like watching people without any military knowledge come up with ranks. In this case the C-n-C would be a Sergeant First Class or First Lieutenant, or simply, Commandant
Watch Commander could also be an appointment rather than a rank, not to mention that historically ranks such as Sergeant and Lieutenant had significantly different meanings rather than a specific level of authority.
@@AGrumpyPanda both, sergeand and Lt. were European ranks that have been used, in one form or the other, since the late middle ages. They have almost always meant the same thing, though international standardisation came after WW1. Another example would be the ranks of Captain and General. They come from the French and English rank "Captain-General/Captain in General". Historically, ranks have had the same meaning with very few new ranks being added in the late modern period
