And even then the Bad Kids know what happened, are reporting everything to the Council of the Chosen immediately, and have left behind a streaming phone to monitor the crime scene and get whatever additional info they can.

Kipperlily probably has a +14 to slight of hand and stealth, Oshean has access to both Greater Invisibility and a Plane Shift plus Metamagic like Subtle Spell. While the Bad Kids were preparing for the first round of combat Kipperlily would have had more then enough time to steal the diamonds from both clerics and get into position to kill Buddy and the Procter. The only mistake Brennen made was saying the diamonds required were 3000 gp instead of 300 gp which the party may have been able to manifest themselves from spells or abilities.

Ik on the first day of school the bad kids killed the lunch lady and got one of the other professors killed via Arthur Aguefort shooting him in the head. - it’s not like killing people or even staff members/teachers is seen as a negative at this school. Wouldn’t be surprised if any other campaign students thought ‘huh we can use murder to our advantage and not get expelled, interesting.’ Kipper being a rogue or any rogue students/even the heavy hitters - would have a field day with that info. Kippers now using it as an advantage possibly. Also we don’t know which professors have already been murdered and if that affected the groups prior to this and put some blame on the bad kids already - or what motivates kipper to actually want to change the school but I wouldn’t be surprised since she’s so focused on Riz. Could also just be about Riz’s mom and how she was a detective or a lawyer who was digging into the secrets of the property’s and the murders off campus and the red shards. The idea that the rat grinders would fail because they don’t have buddy is only reasonable if they also didn’t take the last stand which the bad kids haven’t really expressed. But it’s likely that they already took it and got their grades submitted early passed everyone in their party like the bad kids did and are now officially on break to do other stuff.

    So the Bad Kids were wrong about a key thing here, the rat grinders won't fail if Buddy stays dead, they move to pass/fail instead. Everything we know of the RG is that they're fine taking the easy way out, and don't care about going above and beyond. Kipper ensured she has an auto-pass, and I'm guessing the other core RG's also have plans in place to ensure they're on the passing side. I think their whole plan with Buddy was to have reason for Bobby Dawn to come in and fail Kristin in order to force the Bad Kids into doing the last stand. Once the last stand started Buddy outlived his usefulness and had to die to ensure that the Bad Kids also died in that demi-plane.

    Yeah I feel like they definitely could have done more to save him and/or preserve him for a rez. Adaine also has plane shift and other teleports I believe. She just got ten barrels of diamonds for wizard class as well. I think the moment just threw them all for a loop so much having been in pitched combat with some of D&D's toughest monsters that they weren't ready to suddenly play defense for an innocent bystander NPC. That, and they may have also decided that it would be a more interesting story if they didn't fix it right away and let it play out. Brennan very deliberately made sure that this was not easily fixable by taking two clerics worth of revivify gems out of play.

    This morning I woke up and turned on KZread, and this video came up. I hadn't watched the episode yet, so I didn't click it, but autoplay started and I saw the subtitles: So with no further context, I assume that's what this video was about, and quickly turn it off so I don't spoil anything else. I spent the whole day kinda annoyed about having a twist spoiled before I had the chance to watch the episode. Then I actually watched it, and - well.

    It looks like the plan was to shoot (and kill) Gavin so the Bad Kids would lose those points and if it had happened earlier even if they answered all the questions new waves of monsters would come until they all died and Buddy wouldn't have been able to revive them since Kipperlily stole all the dimaonds.

    The worst part is that was technically a reward for Amy, who had a free moment where they decided to give Kristen Truesight for no reason other than it couldn't hurt and they could do it, which let them catch Copperkettle out before they could do some much nastier shit (according to Brennan)

    Right, but something like that was probably going to happen. They discussed in the Adventuring party that it seemed like she was going to go after both the proctor and Buddy, and when she got caught, she made the choice that would ensure they couldn't be revivified.

    @@acetheenby1475 That’s what I mean. Losing the proctor, or maybe even one of the Bad Kids themselves would have been a much worse result for them. Because Kristen caught them through pure chance, they passed and stayed in school, have a witness testifying their innocence, and confirmed that the Ratgrinders are bad. The proctor and Buddy dropping dead with no one knowing exactly what happened would have been much worse.

    I am not sure, but I think they just rolled 2d10, one at a time, with the understanding that the first roll was the tens place and the second roll is the ones place. Perhaps Ally did not have the double digit ten sided die (or d%) or just wanted to roll one at a time in the box of doom instead of two dice at once.

    I mean it's good for the plot and whatever but even for me as a DnD layman it makes no sense rules wise right? At the beginning of Kristen's turn, as a reaction to being spotted: Kipperlilly who had a readied action to shoot the judge (after an unknown trigger) changed her action to instantly kill Buddy outright with a melee sneak attack instead (so damage twice as high as his max hp right?). No DM would allow their players to pull something like that. "Sorry you need to specify the action and the trigger on your turn. You cant just change the target and action you have readied."

    1) they may have also taken the last stand prior to this so the rat grinders so they may already pass their classes even if buddy dies. Thems the rules. They all pass then the grades are submitted and they’re done they don’t even need to go to classes anymore technically. Was it murder sure was it expulsion worthy na. 2) buddy loves Helio so he probably will just go to Helios heaven and do what normally happens to his followers - meander around corn or Kumbaya/Helio summer camp shit 3) Christian was the ‘Chosen Prodigal whatever Cleric’ so her experience was more personal and direct communication with the god. (Think about it this way other party members have died right and when they go to hell or when they die and go to heaven they just experience a very wack hell/heaven/dad? experience. - Gorgug got a bunch of weird trees with razor blade leaves. No god in sight nobody to explain what happened when he was dead only when he came back. Same thing with Riz. Christian talked to Helio because that’s her whole thing Bobby might be a cleric too but he wasn’t the official prodigy kid so chances are he doesn’t actually meet Helio his powers are more from the belief that Helio exists - not that him and Helio have a deep personal connection) If he does meet Helio I think it will be interesting how he gaslights himself into thinking Helio was cool or nice because that’s his god and he saw his god even if meeting your hero’s doesn’t always go as you plan there’s still gods plan - ya? Christian wasn’t truely gaslighted into loving Helio she had a bunch of faith but was skeptical as hell of all of it. So meeting her hero and being disappointed was a huge deal for her, not everyone is gonna have that same experience.
