callowyn's royce, aranessas younger brother

one tachonis dude. tell thimble

(brennan) as you think about the two faces on that sword, that can be seen two different ways, and think about the fictional—the play, this word of artifice you are creating and that you told a bunch of actors to try and tell the truth, you wonder what it means to say something that's part of the truth and not the whole thing.

(sam) well, come on. those rules got really specific at the end.

(laura) thank you for coming. along.

(marisha) don't—don't look at them, look at me! pay no attention to the man behind the curtain. (sam) the marisha ray story.

(marisha) friendly reminder that there will be no new episodes of campaign four over the next couple of weeks as our team—. (ashley) boo. (marisha) shut up, ashley! (ashley) that's right!

(whitney) what the fuck? huh? what the hell? (travis) the whole week! (laura) he made you suffer! (travis) the whole week! (whitney) i've been shitting myself, brennan.

(sam) i am a bottom. a shiny bottom.

(travis) and remember, you can call out what's in the room on your turn. (thimble) lots of guards! (travis) but not a basilisk? (thimble) and a basilisk!

(brennan) on a 13, you've heard of a basilisk. they either eat people or poison or they can fly or they can turn people to stone or they themselves turn to stone if sunlight touches them. it's one of those.

(travis) boxes? in a dungeon such as this from one brennan lee mulligan? a smorgasbord, i tell you! a cornucopia of greatness awaits!

(sam) this basilisk is—he's being held up like a shotgun?

(sam) i will cast halovar's luminous lash. earthen grasp.

(sam) i'm trying to restrain him pointing away from us. (brennan) well, that would be an amazing useful ability for this exact fight.

(teor) what the fuck? get up, bitch.

(brennan) wulfric takes 17 points of damage. (robbie) what?! while i'm in the bathroom?!

(sam) and remembering that story, remembering that parable, i realize it's bullshit, 'cause my grandma wrote this. and if it's bullshit that my grandma wrote, i'm gonna fucking use it against her and i'm gonna fucking burn down her house. so, i'm all about it now. let's go fuck shit up.

(knight of seremai) don't ever forget: light and healing surrounds you, but you are a monster just like me.

(brennan) imagine getting hit with a sword the size of a school bus and being like, "walk it off."

(brennan) you've leveled up to level five in this moment. (laura) level five? level four. (brennan) level four, level four, sorry. (travis) just take the five! what's wrong with you? no take-backs.

(laura) i'm gonna barf. i'm gonna barf. (travis) you got it, you got it, you got it, you got it, you got it, you got it. you're fine. (laura) natural 20!

(whitney) has anyone killed anybody except for you? (sam) in the campaign? no. (brennan) so far, thimble's got one—the death count right now is thimble with one on this guy and basilisk with one on carl.

(sam) and i'll cast aganazzar's scorcher at him. (laura) wat ist das? (whitney) it's a type of drink. (robbie) a mocktail. (whitney) it actually doesn't quench; it makes you thirstier.

(sam) i would like to rave.

(sir seremai) you're not afraid of dying. i can tell because everything you love is already there. so let's see what else we can take from you. (brennan) and he's gonna advance on wick. (thimble) oh ho ho! did you get that one wrong, buddy!

(brennan) you take 17 points of damage from the first attack. (sam) okay, let's talk about feats. (brennan) okay. did you not select a feat when you leveled up? (sam) i did not. maybe tough would be a good one?

(laura) turns out, when you choose a feat in combat, it only has to do with saving yourself. (brennan) i don't wanna die! (laura) that's the "i don't wanna die" feat.

(brennan) i would allow you to take one death save fail for a reroll if you so choose. (travis) yeah, i'll do that. i'll do that. i'm that kind of gambling man...fuck.

Happy New Year, Critters! Some last 2025 data for you, covering Episode 10 of Campaign 4, including some nail-biting combat, several dramatically timed level-ups, four birds in the space of 12 seconds, and a familiar-feeling parable.

Outside of the Palazzo Davinos Circle of Death Occtis Murder Spectacular, our combat this episode was the most intense so far. In that episode (C4E004), PCs took a total of 159 points of damage; in C4E010, they took 144.

The numbers for this episode tell us multiple stories. Thimble came out on top with damage dealt and enemies slain (five of eleven!), Wicander took the most damage like a champ, and Kattigan tried his best.

Three of our five soldiers have leveled up from 3 to 4, with Wicander taking the Tough feat, Thimble taking the much-improved-in-2024 Durable feat, and Tyranny taking the Lucky feat. Stay tuned for character sheets and other level-up data; it’s coming!

As for the Lord Knight of House Seremai, he dealt 100 points of damage across five hits. He took 125 points before succumbing to his wounds—all but 32 dealt by Thimble, meaning in five hits of her own she dealt 93 damage. She dealt an incredible 42 of those points in a single hit thanks to Sneak Attack and a two-Death-Save-sacrificing Desperate Measures choice.

Of the damage dealt against Lord Seremai, 19 points were in the final hit (by Thimble), and we know thanks to Brennan that he had four hit points left, meaning the Lord Knight’s total hit points were 110.

The basilisk, meanwhile, took 62 points of damage, 13 of which were in the final hit (also by Thimble). Its total was somewhere between 62 and 50 hit points. This is in line with the 2024 stat block, which specifies 52 or 8d8 + 16 hit points.

Lastly for this combat, Wicander is now leading the pack in number of times KOed with a total of 3, two of which took place in this episode under 22 minutes apart. We think taking Tough was a very logical call.

And now for something completely different! We are kicking ourselves for not realizing that of COURSE Sam would have a more over-the-top and inconveniently-sized drinking vessel coming.

Our bird count went up by 4, all in the space of about 12 seconds during the cold open. Nice.

We also learned a Candescent Creed parable about a young girl named Beatrix. A rare artist’s rendering was unearthed on Amazon Prime, pictured below.

And, lastly: Dark Horse Wines. Studies show you will only roll 19 or higher on their dice.

Times rolled: 85

Average Score: -0.3

(Note: The "Score" for each roll is the distance from the average roll - e.g. with no advantage/ disadvantage the average roll of a d20 is 10.5. Rolling an 11 would be a score of 0.5)

Somewhat breaking my "the more you roll the closer your score gets to just above 0" logic, this episode was both the unluckiest so far and the one with the most rolls so far (a full episode combat will do that to ya)

Each Player ranked luckiest to unluckiest (This episode):

Sam: 1.135

Travis: 0.5708333333

Laura: 0.2541666667

Marisha: -1.175

Robbie: -2.728125

Luis: -3.5

This episode, Laura and Travis rolled the most with 24 rolls, while Sam rolled the least with 5 rolls!

(Note: This is just counting their d20 rolls. I'm not counting their damage or anything like that because I'm not quite that much of a maniac haha)

Nerdy Notes:

I have been assuming for a while now that Thimble has the Alert feat (as in e2 she managed to get 25 initiative without mentioning a nat20) - I no longer think this is the case. I finally decided to google the swashbuckler rogue subclass, and turns out they have a feature where you add your charisma mod to you initiaive. This doesn't change much, just that she has been adding +8 rather than +7 this whole time, so has been slightly less lucky than I had assumed

Teor's flail confuses me - if it was just a standard weapon Travis would be adding +4 to rolls, but a couple episodes ago he implied he was adding +6, and this episode he explicitly said he rolled a 9 for 14 - +5. Not sure what's going one, but for now I'm going to assume his flail is a +1 flail

Just checking - Kattigan and Teor didn't level up this episode, right? I had to redo the character sheets halfway through the episode and I'm not quite sure I noted everyone's levels correctly
