Encounter Party: Seeing the Future
July 22, 2024 4:17 PM - Season 1, Episode 18 - Subscribe
The party learns there is no fantasy, and The Future has developed farsight magic through small sapphire monocles; Tolo learns he can see farther than others but the cost spells danger for Flik and Dryddian.
It was thoughtful of Brian to ask Andrew to describe what Dryddian foraged. And sounds like Ulavina got the party out of a potential confrontation with wyrms!
Poor Asher, still un-reunited with her sister. (Although, as you point out, she gets distracted by the monocles.) And no sign of Caden yet.
The ability to predict Plinko made me think that the rock of randomness could actually be useful, but of course they want it for magical parts.
Woohoo, level up! Tolo's antics! And the black-lit smell trail as more props genius!
Why the heck did Dryddian's family have a horrible cursed item as a family heirloom?
They do seem like the type who would nobly guard it so others wouldn't run afoul of it, maybe?

I feel like Andrew has done enough research to actually forage and prepare the dishes he's talking about. Dude is all in, and I love it! :)
the black-lit smell trail
Oh yeah, that was very cool!

I can not begin to tell you how many pages of backstory Andrew has written. Yes he's ready to go with ANY question

Great character development for Asher, getting to see a little of her ambitious, even shady side when she gets excited for the monocles.
Tolo's behavior continues to amuse me to no end, first with his ridiculous bow to Elgri, to his faux-drunken antics ... for no one! "I never had a butt-whuppin feel so good!"
Poor Flik. The walls are closing in...
The question on my mind: Why the heck did Dryddian's family have a horrible cursed item as a family heirloom? That seems like something you'd want to get rid of, not keep around. Dryddian's backstory gets more intriguing...
