00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:30.000 A little bit dead. 00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:32.160 Hey, I'm I'm down. 00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:42.879 Hey, well, Justin, again, I I I am very much looking forward to being able to actually like watch your sessions as they go live and like listen to the podcast of it. 00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:52.319 Because uh again, it's we I I know that we have different styles whenever it comes to DMing, but I think that we both are going to like really drive the campaigns in really cool and interesting directions. 00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:58.720 And before that end, uh thank you everyone, seriously, for uh being here and being a part of this. 00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:00.720 I think this is going to be a phenomenal season. 00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:06.000 But we have to take a moment and actually tell the people who are watching what it is that we're doing, right? 00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:14.319 So this is technically speaking, season three of the final rule, a completely improvised Dungeons and Dragons podcast. 00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:18.319 The first season was recorded in 2000, what, 18? 00:06:18.639 --> 00:06:19.040 17? 00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:20.160 Somewhere around that? 00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:20.959 Something like that. 00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:21.600 18. 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:22.560 Uh, whenever 18. 00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:24.480 I know Chase and I were still in comedy. 00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:25.519 Yeah. 00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:27.680 Some oh yeah, I guess it was 2019, huh? 00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:28.879 Because we tried to revive it. 00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:31.519 We had uh half of a second season. 00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:34.079 We f we finished the first full season, which I love. 00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:35.759 I that I think that was a great time. 00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:40.800 It definitely laid the bedrock rock of like the passion that's kept us going through here, I think. 00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:50.240 But uh, we had a uh false start at a second season that was only ever streamed, I think like twice, and then was wiped from the face of history, I guess. 00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:55.199 And then we had a second attempt at season two where we got a pretty good chunk of the way into the story. 00:06:55.360 --> 00:07:01.680 But then unfortunately, uh I think a lot of us found us in places where carving out the time was a little bit more difficult. 00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:16.879 But uh now we have entered uh a new phase of not just ourselves as people, but the final rule, namely being we are now the final rules, two, in fact, simultaneously occurring uh improvised two final rules. 00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:17.680 Two final rules. 00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:23.040 Yeah, so uh at the end point at the end of this campaign at some point, we will be splitting into our two parties. 00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:27.519 From that point forward, there will be two live streams a month, one with the A Party and one with the B party. 00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:34.319 Both of them are considered canon and do happen at the same time as the other party, uh their adventure. 00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:36.480 So I think it's going to be really cool. 00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:45.040 I think that legitimately, like everyone here has such good chemistry with everyone else that no matter what the parties end up being, it's going to be a really, really fun time. 00:07:45.120 --> 00:07:50.240 So everyone who is watching We should really be calling one of them the penultimate rule. 00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:56.000 Sophia, you're not allowed to like look at my I want to claim it. 00:07:56.240 --> 00:07:56.800 Oh, sorry. 00:07:58.160 --> 00:07:58.959 Justin's claiming it. 00:07:59.120 --> 00:07:59.519 Yeah, he is. 00:07:59.680 --> 00:08:00.000 Okay, fine. 00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:00.800 You know what, Justin? 00:08:00.879 --> 00:08:02.240 You can you can take that one for sure. 00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:05.360 Uh I'll I'll think of something snazzier in the meantime. 00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:12.800 Uh, but uh now that we kind of have that out of the way, uh, we are also uh in the nature of being completely improvised. 00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:17.519 Uh we are going to occasionally be taking suggestions from our Discord uh server. 00:08:17.680 --> 00:08:18.639 We have a little channel in there. 00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:19.519 It's called the Bucket. 00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:27.519 We have the opportunity for our dedicated Twitch and chat bot to pull suggestions from there in order for us to uh improvise around them. 00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:34.799 And we also have a couple of cool little systems of ways to do that in a bit more in-depth and during crucial moments with our fake coin system. 00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:38.399 Uh and Chase, since you set that up, you want to describe that for us a little bit? 00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:39.039 Yes. 00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:48.240 Alright, so uh the way the suggestions work is i bot our fun little Discord bot that I just act as as acts as one of a the

beholder eyes. 00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:53.519 Uh he has a database that people can put suggestions into this bucket channel. 00:08:53.679 --> 00:09:07.440 So when we need a suggestion, we can pull a suggestion from there, and bada bing bada boom, we'll see who put a suggestion in there, and we use that to uh basically uh at the start of the campaign give us a suggestion to go off of. 00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:09.120 Because again, this is fully improvised. 00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:10.879 We need something to springboard off of. 00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:14.559 Now, the fake coin system works very similarly. 00:09:14.720 --> 00:09:21.919 Let's say someone donates to us out out of the kindness of their heart, and they donate to us, let's say, three dollars. 00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:23.200 Wow, that's amazing. 00:09:23.360 --> 00:09:24.000 Well, guess what? 00:09:24.080 --> 00:09:28.159 If you donate to us three dollars, you get a uh give us a fake coin. 00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:29.519 Now what does that do for us? 00:09:29.759 --> 00:09:36.080 Well, you see, as players, sometimes we get really shitty, terrible rolls, and we can't do anything about it. 00:09:36.720 --> 00:09:44.879 But if we have a fake coin in the pool, any one of us as players can go, you know what, I'm gonna use one of those fake coins and I'm gonna re-roll that roll. 00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:45.840 And that's great. 00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:48.320 Basically works as uh inspiration, right? 00:09:49.039 --> 00:10:05.440 Except now that we've used a fake coin, the either the DM or if a note has been left on that donation with a suggestion, that suggestion will help fuel a uh basically what what will happen once that fake coin is used. 00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:11.200 So there could be a negative consequence toward the player or something crazy could happen, basically almost like wild magic. 00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:13.600 So even though we get a chance for this. 00:10:14.159 --> 00:10:16.960 Yeah, tempting fate has consequences, you know? 00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:18.240 It does. 00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:23.519 So if anyone wants to give us a fake coin, go to that little Zell QR code over there. 00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:27.039 Don us, donate us some don't just throw three dollars our way. 00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:35.840 Yeah, and uh, and this uh this podcast, this show is produced by a nonprofit theater organization, and that is where your donation will be going. 00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:38.000 So make sure you keep your uh receipts of it as well. 00:10:38.080 --> 00:10:42.159 We will be doing all of our like announcements of donations that you need in order to write it off. 00:10:42.320 --> 00:11:00.879 Uh, but again, you're you're paying for us to be able to do this cooler and more often and be able to pay all of our uh all of our performers like you know, this is going directly back to all of us who are doing this in order to make sure that uh all of our labor is being adequately compensated, you know. 00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:02.559 That's what we're all about here, right? 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:07.039 All right, absolutely, right, right, right, yeah, yeah. 00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:18.320 No, you're all supposed to say yes, yes, yes, I am all about organization, no one's committing fraud, it's all very clean. 00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:21.279 On the up and up books are all exactly. 00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:23.600 We are books are so clean. 00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:35.279 Uh so prior to this session, we had a uh a session zero that we did not live stream, but is up on all the major podcasting platforms, uh, as well as an RSS feed on the RC website. 00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.840 Um, that is sort of uh our basis of what we're doing now, right? 00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:45.440 During that session, we kind of caught up with each other as people, as well as rolling random stats, right? 00:11:45.519 --> 00:11:55.039 So all you really had influence over was that you got to re-roll one of those stats if it wasn't quite to your liking, but otherwise completely uh just completely improvise those stats, right? 00:11:55.120 --> 00:11:56.399 Roll them on the spot, random. 00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:57.200 We love that. 00:11:57.759 --> 00:12:09.440 But in the meantime, between then and now, Justin and I have gone through and rolled on the various tables for everything from uh your ancestry to your class. 00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:19.679 Uh, and I would and the players uh up to this point, I will say most of them have not seen their character sheets whatsoever, but they all do have a link to them. 00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:27.279 Uh, I would love to invite everyone to go ahead and just pop that bad boy open right now and let's let's see how you how you feel about the party. 00:12:27.919 --> 00:12:28.879 Oh my god. 00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:30.720 I'm absolutely terrified. 00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:31.519 I feel guilty. 00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:33.519 I thought we were doing this right as we started the live stream. 00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:36.080 I've been looking at this for like no way. 00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:39.759 Oh, my God. 00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:45.840 I I don't want to I don't want to say anything because again, but but oh man, okay again. 00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:48.879 I think I think that like as Justin and I were doing it, we were like, There ain't no way, man. 00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:50.480 This is the goofiest party that's ever existed. 00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:54.159 Man, why are you doing this?

01:15:40.720 --> 01:15:41.359 Exactly. 01:15:41.840 --> 01:16:11.039 But luckily we don't have to worry about that right now because uh as Virgil and Typhon sort of skip along their merry way, uh the warforge sort of uh just through its sheer presence kind of forces the other ragtag group along with it until uh finally you exit the the general outskirts of the city outside of the enforcer's range, minus this Halbert 44 unit that is uh serving as your sort of um uh insurance, let's say, that you do the task you're going to do. 01:16:11.359 --> 01:16:18.319 Uh Zach, I want you to describe to me exactly what it's like outside this city. 01:16:20.880 --> 01:16:22.880 Oh, you know, just on the city's edge. 01:16:23.119 --> 01:16:27.359 Oh barren wastes ever since the suburbs fell into hell. 01:16:29.359 --> 01:16:29.920 Damn. 01:16:30.479 --> 01:16:35.840 Just a bunch of dry, cracked ground for a long waste. 01:16:37.920 --> 01:16:39.520 And one bridge. 01:16:40.880 --> 01:16:41.840 The old bridge. 01:16:42.239 --> 01:16:43.119 The old bridge is used. 01:16:43.920 --> 01:16:55.039 So the bridge is old because you know it's not really in use anymore, because it led to the suburbs, and then the suburbs fell into hell, but the bridge is kind of on that edge where it did, so it's just kind of a bridge, and then it just big drop. 01:16:55.600 --> 01:16:58.720 The other half of the bridge, probably in hell somewhere. 01:17:01.520 --> 01:17:02.159 Damn. 01:17:02.720 --> 01:17:03.439 Damn. 01:17:03.760 --> 01:17:05.199 Bridge drops to hell. 01:17:05.279 --> 01:17:06.000 Uh that's a funny thing. 01:17:08.399 --> 01:17:21.279 Well, uh, the bridge is in sight, but unfortunately, crossing these cracked and barren plains is going to prove perhaps a little bit more difficult than it might immediately seem. 01:17:22.000 --> 01:17:35.600 Uh not only is there a massive drop-off right at the end of that bridge where the suburbs fell into hell famously five years ago during the Great Crush of uh 2017. 01:17:37.439 --> 01:17:43.279 Uh well, maybe we'll we'll we'll figure out the time scale at some point. 01:17:43.359 --> 01:18:06.239 But you know, the the Great Crushing uh is of course uh the famous incident where uh two of the moons were dropped directly on opposite sides of this uh the realm in which y'all inhabit, uh fundamentally flattening it into almost a flat surface with huge drop-offs on either side that colloquially, uh at least as far as old uh folk tales say, lead directly to hell. 01:18:06.399 --> 01:18:13.039 But no one from the city has really gone and looked down there to see what exactly is going on with all that. 01:18:14.239 --> 01:18:19.119 I wonder if that's why the church that my dad goes to calls all this the sandwich. 01:18:21.119 --> 01:18:23.279 I don't even know why I'm still going to this bridge. 01:18:23.359 --> 01:18:24.880 I made that thing up. 01:18:27.039 --> 01:18:29.359 Yeah, we should probably go to Dirgil, if anything. 01:18:30.640 --> 01:18:32.399 Guys, Dirgil lives under the bridge. 01:18:32.720 --> 01:18:35.039 He does, but it's kind of a coincidence. 01:18:35.279 --> 01:18:36.720 It's so bohemian. 01:18:37.840 --> 01:18:38.479 It is. 01:18:38.880 --> 01:18:40.960 Please don't call Dirgil Bohemian. 01:18:41.199 --> 01:18:42.239 He hates that. 01:18:42.560 --> 01:18:43.680 Yeah, uh yeah. 01:18:43.760 --> 01:18:46.000 Uh hey guys, you know what Dirgil loves? 01:18:46.239 --> 01:18:51.199 Dirgil loves when you walk up to him and give him a big old pat on the bat and say, Hey buddy, how's it going? 01:18:51.439 --> 01:18:54.000 Dirgil loves that, so why are you open with that? 01:18:54.319 --> 01:18:54.880 Typhus. 01:18:55.439 --> 01:18:56.960 Yeah, yeah, you know what? 01:18:57.039 --> 01:18:58.239 Yeah, he does love that. 01:18:58.399 --> 01:19:02.079 He really, he really loves that when you really get in his personal space. 01:19:02.239 --> 01:19:02.640 Well, I think that's a good thing. 01:19:05.439 --> 01:19:07.520 Yes, how's this for a line read? 01:19:07.680 --> 01:19:10.479 Hey, buddy, how is it going? 01:19:11.359 --> 01:19:14.159 Yeah, I think you're a shoe in for the part, honestly. 01:19:14.319 --> 01:19:14.880 You're both. 01:19:15.039 --> 01:19:15.760 Oh my gosh. 01:19:16.399 --> 01:19:20.239 It's it's it's like being called little guy. 01:19:20.479 --> 01:19:21.760 He loves that, yeah. 01:19:22.000 --> 01:19:22.399 Oh, yeah. 01:19:24.079 --> 01:19:25.920 Oh, that's even better. 01:19:26.159 --> 01:19:27.039 Oh, good. 01:19:27.920 --> 01:19:30.079 Well, people have that in my toolbox. 01:19:30.479 --> 01:19:43.760 You look out onto the vista at the edge of the city, recognizing that while you are riffing here, it is slightly hesitant because you do have the better part of half a day's journey before you even make it to the old bridge. 01:19:43.920 --> 01:19:51.119

Because of course, these barren wastes on the outside of the city stretch for miles in every direction, flat plains as far as the eye can see. 01:19:51.279 --> 01:19:54.319 And the bridge is definitely there and you can make it out. 01:19:54.560 --> 01:20:01.920 But this wouldn't be the first time a group of adventurers from the city tried to make their way out there, only to never be seen again. 01:20:02.640 --> 01:20:04.319 But we'll get there in a moment. 01:20:04.399 --> 01:20:12.720 Uh, before we do, I'd like to take a quick five-minute intermission to give our players a chance to refresh themselves and come back ready to go, as well as anybody who is watching. 01:20:12.800 --> 01:20:17.199 Uh, go ahead and take some time to get some snacks, settle in, because we will be going until 10 p.m. 01:20:17.359 --> 01:20:17.680 tonight. 01:20:17.760 --> 01:20:20.079 And thank you for tuning in so far to the final rules. 01:20:20.159 --> 01:20:21.279 We will be right back. 01:20:25.119 --> 01:20:26.159 Hello, everybody. 01:20:26.319 --> 01:20:28.159 Welcome back to the final rules. 01:20:28.239 --> 01:20:30.399 Uh, part two of session one, I guess. 01:20:30.720 --> 01:20:35.600 I imagine for the uh the audio part of this, we'll probably be splitting it into two different parts here anyway. 01:20:35.760 --> 01:20:40.640 Uh especially since this is going to be a bit of a marathon as we go to pull through to the end. 01:20:40.880 --> 01:20:51.279 Um, but during our intermission, Justin, I think, uh offered something that I would also like to do, and that is pull our first suggestion for uh this season of the final rules. 01:20:51.520 --> 01:21:00.880 So again, the way that this works is these are suggestions that have either been submitted by us as players just to kind of keep get some in the general circulation, or from fans on our Discord. 01:21:01.039 --> 01:21:04.079 Uh over the last couple of days, we've been putting out a call for these suggestions. 01:21:04.159 --> 01:21:13.359 So we are going to pull one live through our Discord, let everyone know what it is, and we are going to use that as a sort of jumping off point for the second half of the first season uh session. 01:21:16.079 --> 01:21:18.560 Uh so I'm going to go ahead and do that now. 01:21:18.800 --> 01:21:24.560 Uh and if you are watching live, you can you can see me do this in the spoiler chat of the Discord. 01:21:24.640 --> 01:21:25.279 It's amazing. 01:21:26.239 --> 01:21:28.640 It's one of the many perks to being a part of the Discord. 01:21:29.439 --> 01:21:42.319 The suggestion that has been pulled from the Discord text channel The Bucket on the Final Rules Discord link in bio uh is going to be submitted by Casey, and that is IKEA instructions. 01:21:42.880 --> 01:21:43.840 Amazing. 01:21:47.520 --> 01:21:49.439 So good. 01:21:49.680 --> 01:21:50.000 Alright. 01:21:50.399 --> 01:21:51.039 So good. 01:21:53.760 --> 01:22:00.880 So we are sitting at the edge uh of what looks to be

The Wright Brothers. 01:50:00.239 --> 01:50:03.359 Who famously invented trains. 01:50:04.239 --> 01:50:04.880 That's true. 01:50:06.159 --> 01:50:06.720 It's true. 01:50:07.039 --> 01:50:09.840 Yeah, and it's spelled R Iight. 01:50:10.479 --> 01:50:11.439 Yeah, R-It. 01:50:11.680 --> 01:50:12.159 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 01:50:15.439 --> 01:50:21.760 Yeah, like the Wright brothers like a like a sacred right, not like a brothers. 01:50:22.000 --> 01:50:22.239 Yes. 01:50:23.439 --> 01:50:27.840 Blair, once we make it out of this, we gotta start really start upping our riding time on the weekends. 01:50:28.159 --> 01:50:28.560 It's true. 01:50:28.640 --> 01:50:29.039 It's true. 01:50:29.359 --> 01:50:32.800 I've got at least three people who have said they want to come. 01:50:33.119 --> 01:50:34.000 Oh stop. 01:50:34.800 --> 01:50:36.560 I have the same three people. 01:50:38.079 --> 01:50:47.359 And as you guys stand up, you guys uh find yourself um maybe just another hour away from the uh from the bridge. 01:50:47.600 --> 01:50:55.760 Uh and on your walks, uh uh you approach um underneath the bridge. 01:50:56.000 --> 01:50:57.840 Tim, I'll pass this one back to you. 01:50:58.000 --> 01:50:58.319 Okay. 01:50:58.880 --> 01:51:18.960 Uh as you begin to walk up to the bridge, uh so when the suburbs of the city fell into hell, uh that weirdly enough, uh I I I like to think of it as like everyone knows that it happened. 01:51:19.680 --> 01:51:27.520 Like for some reason, no one remembers even what the suburbs looked like, much less where they actually were. 01:51:27.760 --> 01:51:30.479 Everyone just knows that they're gone now. 01:51:30.640 --> 01:51:43.680 And it happened sometime recently, but they're not really sure when the last time they were even in the suburbs were, much less what happened after this hole uh suddenly appeared. 01:51:45.119 --> 01:51:51.920 Many people went missing, they're never found, but you couldn't find someone who knew any of the addresses from the suburbs. 01:51:52.079 --> 01:52:05.840 It's almost as if not only did this place physically descend into hell, but even any memory of it and its denizens have seemingly also fallen into a pit of the psyche from which they might not ever emerge. 01:52:06.720 --> 01:52:26.800 So looking at this bridge, it's interesting because the architecture of the bridge belies something almost simpler uh in its construction, more wooden planks and well taken care of rivets than it is grand marble and glass like you'd find in a lot of the metropolitan areas of the city. 01:52:27.199 --> 01:52:41.119 It implies that the people who lived out here in the suburbs perhaps meant to get away from a lot of that hustle and bustle in the city, but to what end now that there's nothing here to show for it, much less nothing to remember. 01:52:42.159 --> 01:52:54.159 But uh as you gaze at this bridge and it strikes you the sort of uncanny nature of being somewhere that shouldn't be, you see a figure begin to approach out of the darkness. 01:52:55.840 --> 01:53:00.720 Hey, Virgil, is that you what you're doing, cousin, and coming over and giving you a big hug. 01:53:00.880 --> 01:53:01.840 Uh it's Dirgil. 01:53:02.000 --> 01:53:05.039 You haven't seen Dirgil since like a couple of family reunions ago. 01:53:05.359 --> 01:53:16.880 And whenever it comes to fur bogs, uh cousins, it's almost assumed that everyone is in some way, uh, if not linked by genetics, linked by culture, right? 01:53:17.039 --> 01:53:22.880 So whereas a lot of cultures might say something like, you know, uh everyone is brothers and sisters, you know, siblings to each other spiritually. 01:53:23.039 --> 01:53:25.920 Everyone in furbog culture, they're they're more like cousins, you know. 01:53:26.079 --> 01:53:29.039 It's cool to see what they're doing every now and then when you check back in with them. 01:53:29.119 --> 01:53:33.840 But you know, if you don't talk to them for you
