Hello and welcome to Nights in the Night actual play podcast. This place in the dark story machination is written and run by our GM John and now please enjoy episode 628 titled Ghost laid me here to die actual play begins immediately. Hello and welcome to Nights in the Night actual play podcast I am our GM John running our blades in the dark campaign machinations players with me starting on our left are Thomas playing Hadrian's Briar or Burning Briar on the job a runaway demon heir from Arubia some noble family or another weird project that no one should ever know about currently possessing the body of an accuracy man healthy build the noble stock fitted with an open chested long coat pair of glasses and what is actually me a thorny Briar barely poking out of the corners of his mouth and ears most visually striking he has a furnace installed in his belly that burns entangled in the briars burning away in that furnace rests a pale blue ghost flame which sometimes spells out the truth of his emotions nowadays he also sports a prosthetic foot lost in a demon fight and immaculately replaced with a peg leg shaped like a foot sculpted with his demonic powers his role within the group is that of a leech for saboteur and technician who can do all sorts of mad crazy science be it arcane or technological I've got three stress I'm unstable due to the various problems we face down the road and I still have that lame foot hello everyone I'm Scott I'll be playing teslin veil otherwise known as the Bill of the Abyss the bell is a severosi whisperer who does the dirty work for the archives of echoes exploring the past via ghosts with Lord Penderon or mentor and want to be lover she is a petite brunette who is partial to pedicotes she has flowing oberin locks out of skin and green eyes she also has a dead hand sewn on to her left wrist that she is mortified of teslin has four stress and she has a level one harm of painful cuts hello folks I am Jim I am playing a recovering silver tongue slide named Steven Bing also known as busy we're not on crew business busy spends his time trying to revitalize the finances of the Bing coal mining family the socializing and enterprising handsome young echo rosy noble is always looking for new ways to profit from the good and bad fortune of others he's looking forward to the day when he no longer needs to be disguised as spirit warden dell goes I am currently recovering from lung injury and I have four stress boxes I'm Tom and I play uster Roland an ex blue coat captain who goes by the name of ghost because of her pale skin eyes and hair she is a cutter class character who is dangerous and intimidating figure but she also does her best to keep her crew members safe she currently has six stress Michael playing Gordon a young thin scovish lurk he specializes in infiltration and scouting lying into bypass most security measures Gordon currently has five stress all right one last we left house callus had successfully routed the spirit wardens but had reconciled bettering down their arcane defenses trying to get at the heart of cotar we discussed that house callus with the last move they had gathered the help of Mildred and an accomplice of hers known as council el staira of rathy who was visiting in case it wound up being necessary for her to confront the spirit wardens she is the representative of interests for eruvia in the city and has opinions on the spirit wardens in general as the empire has it's basically that eruvia's kind of its own sovereign nation that pays like tithes to the empire and it would be disastrous if either of them went to war but they are not particularly owned and so most of the cities in eruvia do not have spirit wardens do not have lightning fences that are surrounding the cities they have their own ways of defending themselves usually that's because they worship demon princes that keep the place running these demon princes are not beholden to the emperor who claims a thousand and one demons under his sway but certainly not these behemoths anyway she has been a member of the path of echoes the cult branch of the research that teslin veil does with lord penderon so they are at least acquaintances but after mounting some arcane defenses we are kind of comparing clocks here a bit at a standstill between the reconciled trying to break through to the heart of kotar the house kellis's old necromantic powers boarding them out unfortunately they have access to an enormous hall a brass robot powered by a ghost or in this case a bunch of reconciled ghosts possessing its shattered containment vessel it is currently waiting through the remnants the gore of the spirit wardens crunching the greenhouse tile under its fingers as it tries to pry itself out of the trap door this trap door was the the fake one with the um yeah the lure well that's where i actually have the ghost flame defenses that were supposed to do nothing to people how perfect you might have to get deep in the hall to do it but um you do have defenses set up uh-huh i don't remember how distracted briar is at the moment he was enjoying the slaughter and i don't know if that's still ongoing or if it's already complete i'd like to start with skivin since he's right in front of this creature climbing out as he issues commands that we got what we needed let's get out of here go for it then i forgot we're skivin those not really sure what i can do well it's gonna try to kill anything in his path there was some traps that fire but down here some fireworks and such uh-huh we're supposed to be more showy um is there any way i could move or redirect those into or lure it into such a way where it will be damaged and so they won't be so showy but it'll actually get burned or hit by them i don't know if i could push them like actually throw them into the hole it's trying to grow out of throw out of or just push them in the way so when it comes out it's going to be right in his face or whatever i can do that doesn't sound impossible it sounds like you're trying to set up briar to do more effective damage on this thing yeah can i use finesse it sounds plausible dextrous manipulation subtle misdirection i think so yeah that's kind of the vibe yeah so i'm gonna do that i'm gonna try to squish things in his way and lure him into it that does get you a little close to this thing where a human would be risky this thing is a killing machine that has been programmed to attack you so i'm gonna say desperate which uh you know good xp but just so you know where you're at before you do this thank you gotcha there is the fact that if you're aiding somebody else let's see i don't know if you roll about it i think it's just that you are now involved whether or not depending on the result of the person who attacks right but i got a chunk of rolls here i'm gonna make sure that's the case otherwise we'll have you roll about it form an action a setup action anyone who follows through gains plus one effect on the improved position or role okay so that does sound like its own role go ahead with your finesse if you're still game for it desperate i think standard effect of like it is a setup and you're going to be increasing the follow-through can i aid him in his endeavor i know i'm in a greenhouse over but i'm certainly able to see the precariousness of the situation yeah uh specifically because they are like ghost fire energies that are trying to be positioned you might be able to juice them yeah i'm looking to kind of juice them and like override the circuitry so that they kind of either just spin in a circle or stop where they're at in their tracks as they try to make you know what so they have to abandon this robot and just be very vulnerable ghosts yeah something along those lines as a aid action as a as a help action so i'll give them one stress yeah give busy an extra die so just plus one right plus one die for you yes come on busy i got a lot of force okay i want to see the follow-through to know how many people are involved in this complication or harm coming your way so if we could get to burning briar burning briar burn some stuff he burns brightly this is a tune no i can't see what else it would be that makes sense to me it does okay in this case i have gotten slightly better at this than i was last week and i'm rolling three dice nice come on briar big roll i'm going to in tone in the ways i have learned to try and call upon the goddess of great good who does not necessarily exist but at the very least i'll dedicate these deaths to her as i consume the oldest parasite the city has known and burn some fucking ghosts who have stuck around far too long and then i'll roll do i get any bonuses from that's a partial success i'm not sure how much help i got from skewn it is giving you great effect is how the aid works oh all right how is my position i am so far away from this nonsense and yet this flame is me so there's some room to wiggle there i'd say we could get it all the way to risky but i don't really see it being desperate most i think meta plot wise it is risky for other things going on here but not necessarily the creature you're about to burn right other things are happening all right no bonus dice rolling straight three of them could think of now i don't really want to push myself i already did a lot of mayhem this week and my character isn't feeling guilty but is feeling the pressure of how we're going to get out of here after all these murders great more forced say a partial success more for us physically where are you we discussed last week i'm in a separate another separate greenhouse possibly floors away from the nonsense we've been dealing with as i organize the plants and dance through the gardens so very isolated from other people's support but otherwise i felt very safe okay is it with the heart of kotar or i don't think i was trusted with that secret otherwise you are not absolutely have been there burning bro i would have loved it that's okay and i kept to ourselves so you were called to it nevertheless you did not know about it and you are just a hairs breath away from the entrance as it sees you flaring brightly and hungers wow it's mutual this boy is also hungry i don't know and so like minds call it to each other that you are drawn to these particular branches that the goddess of thorns pulls away for you and kind of eeks under the trap door to crawl her own way in there hmm what curious resonance and i what answer a desperate situation as i open the door and realize i think so i want to get back to you we'll just leave you with the door jar as you descend into a anonymous glow absolutely a briar thing to do in the midst of this combat how was my effect on the creek yes it was it was great you had a great effect the hazard here is that as you approach this heart your energies complement one another and your fires begin consuming the entirety of this greenhouse with the golem in it it does fry the golem it melts a lot of the circuitry it's way way burning specifically the it is not the hottest flame you mentioned before it's a cold one but it is burning because it's channeling spirit energies and so it is messing all of the circuitry up in its consumptive force going up and down these wires trying to eat all the ghosts that are trying to manipulate the limbs and what not we can tick i think all but one of these reconciled forces away as they are consumed in the matter but your teammates also unfortunately have spirit energy in them oh no you guys should give that to me instead oh thank you and as it flickers along plants eating the life force away from them it begins to just consume the exit lick at your boots skevin is feeling very sleepy just wants to give up right now it's a fire that's doing it being just doesn't matter anymore the ghosts are even winding down the whales are murmurs and the robot heals over and you can hear your old victim one echo inside many in this creature saying it doesn't matter anymore anymore anymore anymore we're gonna give you probably a coma unless you can get out of here is there any way i could be close enough to help defend because that's my specialty it's what i do it's true i think that it will be you aren't in the room there's not an immediate pop-in you're just breaking through and i'm holding him out of the fire fireman style gotcha i think you were with me weren't you yeah we did describe that last time yeah that's why i'm thinking it takes a minute and you can definitely get to the rescue but it's not an immediate like i was there right just because of the logistics of things can i take my turn yeah you can feel it just sapping all the energy you gave to it in growth and then dulling the area supernaturally and what is this that you're speaking of the uh the fire that you gave extra growth to it's just becoming like ashes the i don't know what hadrian set up to burst into flame but you kind of like super charged the kindling and it started consuming all of the life force in the room by helping busy i did that kindling yes you did it attuned style because of your distance you just oxygenated the fire basically just want to make sure i understood so on my turn is there a way with the ghost field i can pull out some spirits of a defensive manner and encircle busy with them so he doesn't go into a coma and pass out and so that he can escape because him escaping is a big part of our plan and him going comatose is not really going to help us all that much is there a way to do that with the spirit field changing the energies if you will kind of refocusing the energy around are you like directing the remaining ghosts to give him something that will get consumed before he does like ghost armor spirit yeah that's what i was looking for some kind of spirit armor that's what i was going for so uh some kind of defense like the spirits come and they kind of envelope him and surround him with the spirit energy that takes the damage of what's going towards him and allows him to remain upright and able to escape ghost leave me here to die won't do it busy no man left behind or women i think that is something you could try i think you're going to have limited results it's basically going to be a form of like reducing the harm instead of being in a coma we might have a busy who's like possessed by a lethargy for a long time right that works fine for me thinking it from a a level three harm to a level two harm or level one harm whatever the case may be i am more than happy to throw my energy into that endeavor okay i'm assuming that's a tune again is i try to direct yes it is around i think this is a big moment so i'm going to push myself and take two stress when you do that you can give yourself an extra die or increase the effect so like double stress reduction how much are double harm reduction right as it were um double harm so i think this is a is this a level three do i know that even narratively it's a level three yeah i think that you know it's going to consume all life in there so you're doing all you can i think i need the success more than i need a partial success i need a full success i'm gonna go with the extra die okay in the position is controlled risky or desperate before you push yourself i have a devil's bargain you don't have to accept it i will listen nierics will be a survivor as well so nierics is there mm-hmm was sort of a commander for these forces and he's going to be eaten up and it's going to take care of an enemy of mine if i allow briars fires to do their tracks to do the damage but you're saying if i let if i take the extra die from the devil's bargain uh we will have nierics living as well okay i'm going to do that i'm going to take the devil's bargain i'll take the stress i'll remove the stress from my character sheets i'm back down to four and i'll have nierics return is a pain in the ass pain in the ass in the future so that gives me a total of four dice the position is risky desperate or controlled it's not controlled is it it is not controlled i think that uh in stretching out so far to this other room you are leaving a trail of energy back to you and this fire is not bound by physical boundaries kind of like a wick yeah a little bit maybe yeah you may end up with your own outbreak here okay and so did you say it was risk i'm sorry i talked over you so i didn't know if you said it was risky or risky failure would put you in a desperate position where the fire is spread here sort of thing okay and effect is going to be limited correct just taking one down one harm down one yes and there would still need to be a rescue made which we've gotten in the books okay i'm rolling four dice a tune risky limited effect here we go the last devil's bargain die roll there you go i'm glad you got it all right you managed to snuff your energies out before it reaches to you and the last of it organizes this shield of a love of life energy around busy and that takes the form of ghosts that remain but also radiant plants with life energy in them crawl over kudzu style and are the first to burn on top of him okay and it's this situation that ghosts bust the door in on say the ghost yeah teslin and i would have arrived at the same time we were in the same distance so yeah teslin was doing a remote work did not move at all and was just attuning from afar right i was running up to grab busy and if i'm closer would it be beneficial if i attack this ghost i specifically have a special ability of ghost fighter it's true it taps into your tune as much as you can see what you're fighting while the edges of it are looking at your friend covered here in plants and spectral frost that is getting licked away by the flame most of it is consuming those things on top of him you would not need to fight it to pull him out there might be complications with being covered in ghosts if that still persists after you remove him from this place hey ghost real quick question did you put on one of the spirit wardens uniforms last week when we report yes i did so you look like you're a spirit warden helping a spirit warden basically which is good excellent thank you good cover so yeah uh so you reach into this flaming mess and pull busy out of the consumptive spirit flames correct i just get them out as quickly as possible and it doesn't sound like i need a roll it's all been handled already but i'm there to make sure they get out and prevent any ghosts from following if necessary because it sounds like all the other ghosts were dealt with this is just a big bad one left right yeah she's gonna get out of here no use in dying about it or re-dying about it but there are creatures as the flames chase them back into the the hole the hole crawled out of where they had opened a gate to invade the place i did not understand the hole came through them with the gate i thought they possessed the hole that was already here for home defense yeah i think they opened a gate through the hole it's definitely not a good exit now they may just be going somewhere the fire is not to beat their escape more traditionally there is a spirit side of the city you can open a spirit gate to the lives of buildings that have died the whatever ephemeral psycho space that the city occupies potentially but you are not trained in opening it though there have been whispers who've traversed it but it is a dangerous place a spirit key a spirit bell ghost key is a thing that whispers carry with them i have one as a matter of fact indeed you have yet to traverse it because you know the dangers but it is how they got in here and uh they're leaving corporely more or less as corporeal as they get without possessing a body as their exit has kind of been compromised anyway all to say you managed to pull busy out we are going to with the aid of both of you have busy have a i think it's still a level two harm because we only talked it was a desperate and you got the XP for it right busy i don't want to cheat you i did do a desperate role i did not mark any XP for it yet okay i didn't know if we do that at the end or now or what well just so we remember it i do it as we do it and it was a finesse role so it would be in the prowess category gotcha a level two harm of no will to live how do you phrase this despondent despondency yeah one of those will work what's not good to you busy this is an emotional one that will affect you when you've when you're trying to do mental or sometimes social things uh i don't know trying to think of a good word for it it would describe some i don't know somebody who's just given up mmm-hmm the despondent whatever despondency lethargy hopeless you could business whatever works for you if one of those sounded good go ahead level two level two okay gordon yeah i'm not clear where this is happening compared to where i'm at how much happened last week after i fell through the glass as you fell through the glass you had believe gone over the entrance bridge there's a bunch of bridges connecting the canals here or like going over the canals here and below there was a canal boat full of spear wardens that had been trying to reinforce the place you fell through when taking a shot at them to dissuade them from such they fired back and shattered the glass you were lying down on top of you managed to repel down with the help of a vine from Hadrian and by the time you got to the bottom we had had other turns in which the spirit wardens were just routed they started piling out of the door back into the boat and the boat started sinking because of how many numbers were trying to escape people are bustling past you trying to get out the door spirit wardens are just running away it looks like a victory that being said as you try to connect back with a member of the group you head up to where one of Hadrian's spirit flames burns coordinating with the household leads Rosalind Mildred and Cecil are there along with this Eruvian woman who were doing that ritual to protect their tree down in the basement right okay well I asked the group that's standing around there while looking straight at Rosalind well if everybody's okay and they need anything it seems that most of the assaults is over I need you to make sure everything's all right and she's struggling to be subtle while she has a guest here yeah I think I understand can you jump the way I think we're safe now all right she leaves the rest of the folk behind heads down with you toward the tree you notice the Eruvian following you for a little traumatic irony Hadrian you've seen this scene from another angle being a blue flame in the fireplace the Everathys are a family of assassins for the demon prince they fight heresies wow they kill would be challenging demons and your family came head-to-head with them several times but I'm pretty sure I am that awkward being a heresy and you see her following along you have seen her poking at your plants she has an inkling of a demon around here and she's following because she believes that you're connected I mean that wrong I'm not unconnected however I should rather get out of here how entranced am I by the heart of Krotar how it's proposing a union what sort do you want me to replace my heart with you a fusion you would start growing multiple bodies wow damn it was on my bucket list yeah it knows your bucket list oh fuck how did it learn my bucket list it has the same bucket list awesome I think that I am all for this but I feel like it would cause problems with our hosts who I don't know what the fuck their plans are for this crazy psychic thing they have in their basement I guess I don't care huh okay I guess what's involved is there a big ritual is going to take a minute because we have a demonologist coming and if I could just not be what I am when they arrive I guess that's a solution too speak to me oh heart of Krotar what's the plan you have a corpse garden oh okay you want me to play it yeah okay yeah that would be stealing it's giving you images of like where this body grew its vines I can work with that we can work together yeah this is so tempting but also I know that I actually would have a hard time escaping at this particular moment from this particular place with this particular set of enemies and then all of my allies might be enemies and they know where I live hmm don't do it prior say that out loud please I mean it's just a really bad plan if I had a much better plan I began to make plans for long-term stealing of the heart of Krotar because I can't short-term steal this heart but we whisper sweet magical nothing is to each other and then I get so fucking distracted that I don't leave until the demon all just arrives because I don't really have a solution yeah her role is much less the demonologist that we met before she's just and she's in a politically a rather parallel line of work you could say and a very different culture yeah she's a Ruby and she's not from the Empire right so she's correct she hunts demons in a much different way mm-hmm there are four demon princes of aruvia and there are many pretenders would be little demons around the place that have delusions of grandeur as long as they know their place they are fine but the creators of Hadrian or rather Briar did not know their place no and water under the bridge demons under the bridge of rathy is she in the NPC area did you put her in there or yes she has a picture in the dramatic persona she's nine council elstera of rathy okay thank you I was looking for the spelling but I couldn't find it for my notes I'll add more to her it was just her origin and the beginning but she makes her way with you folk down to this part of kotar oh wait she before she does i make her stop doing that at the very least make it clear to other people who might be able to stop her from doing that that they might want to stop her from doing that because i know what she is important like i know in which way she is important so i tell ghost through one of the propane pocket watches hey local city representative is following them down to what i have now discovered is an incredibly secret garden i think that given your distraction that message can get through it's a little garbled yeah having a way more important conversation about really cool magic shit yes you do get a warning that there is and i think gordon she just straight up approaches you there's a demon about to consume whatever this house is protecting it's my job to stop such things from happening i won't interfere with what's happening here aside from that i just want to lend my expertise that's why i'm here tonight i grab brazilin's hand and i just look at her and then look over to the who's this woman the council yeah yeah like the ambassador from one other country that is apparently a master demon fighter yeah this is above my pay grade i didn't know you had such friends brazilin didn't really know that you had i don't want to repeat myself but yeah if that's your expertise please i'd like to keep it the callous secret but please save it and you folks enter the heart of kotar anti-jamber or i guess it's not the anti-jamber that's like the before the holding cell for the heart of kotar the battling babies are suckling on the sap from the tree yeah they are precocious in a way that humans should not be given that the souls in them are old they're still deformed they're trying but a couple of them are pawing at briar as i don't know how close are you to this heart in the center of this ancient oak i would think he's got at least one hand directly on it as he talks very interestingly and animatedly outlines his thoughts with his other hand in a vacuum yeah the your flame is taken to the pulse of the heartbeat it ripples out from the corners of my face where it normally hides within the brambles to play in the air as the heart beats and i am not paying attention you guys at all well this is awkward burning briar down here was that part of the plan you're not sure no it was a complication to a roll uh the heart called out to him on a failed roll he just was like looking at the energies of the place and this heart said hey we're good team we would be a fucking great team you know the dark call of power and so a door was kind of open for him a magical path kind of made itself known okay and here he is down here just whispering sweet nothings to this part very normal i kind of take my arm and push razzle in behind me and put my hand on one of my knives and this briar what's happening uh it's talking to me is the vague reply that he gives you what are your intentions like sweet love that's fucking hard it's kind of complicated from a human perspective try very long-term plans but we're going to enter business together it's got some desires it wants to fulfill that i would be remarkably useful for and i like what it's selling it seems to like the plan better than sticking with this gestures towards the old souls although i think that may have been part of the plan too it's a long drawn-out thing it speaks slow and steady i'm watching razzle's reaction when we twisted this heart to do this it wanted to make more of itself we wanted to give new bodies to those that had passed it's not doing what it was intended to how does it feel about that well it sounds not like it doesn't want it this is kind of like stringing an air demon up to fly an airship and the demon fighter interrupted because she is a yeah everything is yeah she's definitely not here for the promise of power and the dark offerings and there are demon bane charms that whispers have hers are carved into throwing knives each of them kind of a rooting effect on the demon and just whips one into your hand holding onto the bark next to the heart oh let's see how that goes what happens when an NPC tries to attack a hero i don't even know those rules for that well you can try to dodge it and then the result is how much damage you get or not that makes sense i just my brain not says the only dodge is resistance but i suppose i could roll something like finesse finesse problem is like looking moving around you second prowl too yeah one well i'm not the worst there are things i am worse at in each and every category and one of them would even be relevant to helping me here and i'm worse at it so i will roll one finesse this is probably going to go badly for me but it's not desperate it's just risky if she were trying to kill you it would not be a throwing dagger roll a six and catch it it'll be really cool when i do that i'll say it's all in the reflexes and then i'll remember the next line too but i rolled it to instead which is the first time i think i failed all right you are pinned to the tree by your hand normally i mean a dagger through hand isn't going to stop somebody if they pull it out or want to move enough but the thing is that the failure here is that it's sapping your strength the fire is in the other room dim your awareness of all of the flames you have going on and the plants you have grown just kind of narrow to a pin prick like not on fire on fire dead and the whispers of the heart are a very distant whisper that you can barely concentrate on meanwhile the human threading you in front of you is very familiar i'm hoping my god is she but i'm sorry that's not she is not like in strangling range she has pinned you to a tree she is standing at arm's length some kind of projectile that just does as much damage as that last one i'm sure yeah she is keeping her distance and monitoring how it took you because it has different effects i think he's muttering dark insults after a short and violent scream in a language that nobody understands but she understands the insults they roughly boil down to i'm gonna find a drug that does this to you and see how you like it she's shaking her head they considered you one of the great five concerns that we would uh what's like the top bounty you think i'm done i thought you want to have a polite conversation are we continuing combat no we're not take your friend i'm done here i think the situation should be resolved she's referring back to gordon yeah he spits a real tongue of flame out in anger and waits for somebody to remove him from this tree just to let her know what he can do because i can breathe all sorts of chemicals and today i've got fucking flame thrower birth she doesn't fall back she takes a step and she's cautious but not running and just stands far enough away that she's not in line of fire and says like i said i think i've resolved the situation and your friend doesn't seem to be the threat i thought he was i'm going to walk towards brier give me a few years and a couple artifacts like this brier uh let's go for a walk outside we can uh i hand off or whatever you've got going later yeah i help you i pull the knife up that's yeah for you all right leaves nice black burn around his hand and in his veins and shakes it out as he joins you out of here uh i don't think i'm subtle enough to do anything else let me look at my skills i can use sway if i have to but uh he wants out rather than being in a closed basement room with something built to kill him and equipped to do so i was hoping that would be the case plans for this woman later but uh good to know i rate so fucking high on the government shitless though that's impressive yeah top five concerns i can and will eat a demon much bigger than me but i haven't done it yet i thought it was razzle into through the knife not the demon out just i might have misheard no thank razzle would have i miss her i miss her i have rathy she um she did follow them down then she did yeah her family trains their agents in demon hunting for specifically eruvian demons who want to be big shit compared to the four princes that are supposed to rule the place mmm yeah and families that would worship them followers cults mmm apparently briars family that created him i was rated one of the big five concerns of the hit list and so she approached down here with caution and then just kind of threw one knife and said oh okay yeah this guy is just uh why briar was making threats towards razzle and and i was no no it's the steven hunter yeah i got it now thank you i mean he would have if razzle was the one who stabbed him like that but no he was just almost stealing her family shit due to dark concerns anywho gordon where are we going going home yeah that sounds good to me thank you for listening tonight's
