THE COUNCIL DISCUSSES EPISODE 12 OF APOTHEOSIS

Comments

tyrannicalTerror

Every time Peter becomes slightly less sad, it gets ripped from him. Get all confident because he got money? Immediately loses all of it. Get even more confident because he got laid? Dies. He was probably safer in the first episode when everything sucked for him all the time, because at least then none of his nonexistent friends had a magic soul-stealing sword that they could stick in his chest. EDIT: I completely forgot about him losing his first and only raise a few hours later.

I'm devastated. I dont even know what to do bro. I took a break from Prime Defenders to watch Apotheosis because I saw the break between s2 ep 12 and 13 (?) And realized the 6 month break was to record Apotheosis. So I decided to take that break as well. Wtf man. Wtf.

Bully Me

How the hell did this happen. The probability of this is just so unlikely like what...

Newton P

Replying PURELY because I am also listening to this campaign for the first time on the same day as you. Your comment was posted 1h ago when I hit play on this Rolled. We are sitting in shock together rn.

Bully Me

Im continuing to watch this till the end no matter what happens I am determined to see to it

Fun fact for all you new listeners! Bizly stated in one of the previous rolls (I believe it was the 10th) that Thanatos leveled up and became immune to being frightened. The spell used on him, Enemies Abound, specifically has no effect if the person it is used on is immune to being frightened. Do with this information what you will!

Bruh. rewatching this series...all i can say is bruh...and read your character sheets

Grrafe

True, but I think it was just a general screw-up since Condi didn't seem to take that point into consideration, meaning that if Bizly wasn't familiar with the spell he wouldn't have even known that was an option in the first place. The real lesson here is read your spells fully, not just to the point where it does the thing you want it to do.

Fun fact! This had a 0.7425% chance of happening (assuming Thanatos already failed)

Beejuice

My favourite Peter Sqloint moment was when he miraculously succeeded a con save against Thanatos ^_^ that happened right guys

Magz yup

i think my favorite sqloint moment was when he was alive.

Emily Banana

Thank Sqloint. I really needed this after the episode. I'm excited to see where everyone goes from here ❤️

scruncklord

my favorite sqloint moment was when he

GenerallyJen

Grizzly’s acting this episode… man I gotta give him a standing ovation. Rumi’s reaction to Peter biting the dust is what solidified the impact for me, absolutely insane dude.

Iris

not fun! crying!

Dog in a trench coat

There was a 0.75% chance of peter: being choesen to get hit, being critted, and failing the saving throw...

rumiracle

grizz was absolutely insane this episode

BonezMcCann

When I said I wanted them to lose a battle, this isn't what I expected 😭😭😭

Dani RL

it is such a bad month to be a charlie slimesicle dnd character enjoyer

Ghostwise

(riptide 74 spoilers) so yes, both thanatos and rumi will probably grow from this experience. did rumi need to be wrong? yes. did thanatos need to learn empathy and emotion? yes. would it make sense for peter to stay dead? yes. but can I lose both of my Charlie Slimecicle(TM) Comfort Characters within the same week? absolutely not please bring peter back I can't handle this rn

R. S

i think one of my favourite squloit moment was when peter suddenly grew 10x as 'cool' when he got the money and then instantly lost it

R. S

(insert crying noises) totally happened- 100%

R. S

i know- i cant frikn do this today homie :'> like yeah theyre both gonna benefit from this- but if Rumi sits there and makes the deal with charisma god guy- idk how the story is gonna pan out from here- if charlie just plays as xandroth now- it will be pure chaos- am i here for it because xandroth is an amazing chaos man who literally makes me laugh and cringe at the exact time is- yes. but hes only that way in small doses :'> idk homie. im spooped

Miran

Just Roll What If Peter Sqloint was alright.

Lindsey

If the JRWIweek episode isn't lost to the void, would it ever get posted as a Just Rolled What If? I sure hope so.

UnequivocableVernaculist

Funny enough, Peter dying isn't as much of a development for his own character as it is for Thanatos. Bizly finally got to reach that point in his character where the "Kill Kill Kill" mindset finally backfired and proved itself not enough.

im guessing no just because of the way they talked about it in such a negative light in this just rolled but I hope they do I want to know how a meteor got there

oceanaslana

entirely likely that you guys have already recorded the next episode and this comment will have no weight on what you do with rumi's 12th level spell, but i've always thought of the crew levelling up as happening during/after the long rests that usually occur sometime after a god fight, which gives them time to "attune" to their new abilities. this could be an explanation for why rumi is not able to perform the raise dead spell until later on. perhaps the god of charisma does not have the ability to raise peter, which can cause further tension/anger between our godslayers and the remaining gods, OR rhymir can raise peter under the condition that he is not slain, which will cause tension/anger between thanatos and rumi. either way, excited to see how this plays out! i can't imagine this campaign's ending without peter, so i hope he returns sooner rather than later. my favorite peter sqloint moment gotta be when he casted magic for the first time. that was pretty recently, but the way charlie's/peter's face lit up when it worked made me happy for the rest of the day. i made a pact with myself that i would boycott slimecicle content until gillion was returned to jrwi: riptide, but after this i'm thinking about breaking that pact out of pity. this was really unfortunate.

my favorite Peter Sqloint moment is when he got murdered by the imposter (Thanatos) from among us (Hell).

scrimmyjim

my favourite peter moment was his conversation with rumi about whether they were doing the right thing. that showed so much growth and strength on his part - episode one peter would never have questioned rumi like that, and it was really nice to see him with some confidence for the first time. i relate a lot to peter (which i know implies some things about me but i swear i'm fine lol) and i don't think there has been any other fictional death which has gutted me so much as his. you all did such a great job in the episode. that being said, i almost wish rumi didn't get that new spell just so i could see them tear the earth apart to bring peter back. it would be cool to see more humanity and desperation coming from them. whatever happens, i'm sure y'all will deliver a satisfying ending to the campaign.

If I had a nickel for every time Peter Sqloint made me feel emotionally vulnerable when he’s supposed to be the comic relief character, I’d have two nickles! Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice-

tuesday

my favorite peter moment is when rumi asked his name and he cried and said "no ones ever asked me that before"

Afunnydeadmeme

I really thought Rumi was gonna off himself next to Peter at the end of the episode when he was crying next to Peters body

Zelfar PenDrake

I don’t wanna be thoughtful in my media intake, I want funny heeho haha

Zelfar PenDrake

Can we get a Prime Defenders OneShot where the PD has to work with Le Frog

R.

Romeo and Juiliet style

Keyia

Thankfully, Peter did complete his bucket list before he died: 1. Find friends 2. Talk to a woman 3. Have sex 4. Stand up to Exandroth 5. Do magic

Keyia

Since Prime Defenders took a break, it felt like the DMs stopped targeting Condi's characters and started hurting Charlie's and I personally find it hilarious

Keyia

"Heaven is gone, we've established this" is genuinely frightening out of context

CommotionInDaOcean

Not me almost tearing up over podcast men... I'd never. And certainly not a man with the last name Sqloint. I hate it here /j

sarah earl

will never sqloint again

Super Blorb

It’s even scarier in context wtf you on about?

Ponderhin

The way in which Rumi grieved was SO good. First of all, props to grizzly for really selling it, all the voice acting was full of emotion and I really heard it as Rumi crying, not Grizzly Voice Acting Rumi Crying, if that makes sense. Secondly how he responded, like at first not believing it, and then begging the sword to fix it and just... and trying to break it and throw it and sobbing and just breaking down. That's such a realistic as well as heartbreaking response. A really key thing that stood out to me was him asking Thanatos why this happened, because it's like him suddenly not being in control or knowing the answer. The imagery of his form rippling was a really good way to show how this identity he crafted is breaking apart (and also I could picture it so clearly bc it was a good description). I cried real tears at this and yet I'm honestly glad it happened. I relate to Rumi a lot, and I've been waiting for him to break so he could grow. I hope Peter's death shows him that he cannot be in control all the time, that he cannot fight for control all the time, that he has to learn how to be wrong and expect the unexpected and cry and be a human, not a god.

Ponderhin

I also hope this bc it would be personally cathartic for me to see that journey but shhhhhh

ObiWanCannoli

Absolutely phenomenal voice acting from grizzly this episode, had me tearing up

Keyia

Le Frog does community service

Natsu Sekai

I just checked the actual math, and the chances of 1. Thanatos targeting Peter (1/3), 2. Biz rolling a nat 20 (1/20), and 3. Charlie rolling >11 on the con check, the chance of Thanatos insta-killing Peter is 00.83%, less than a single percentage chance

Leukros

bro grizzly's acting as rumi absolutely gutted me this session. i hope he gives himself a pat on the back because it is *rare* that any kind of acting can get me to stop what im doing and just sit there, hand over mouth in shock, and his reaction to peter's death did that to me.
