Doric I'm not doing this for the money. I'm doing this for people who took me in when no one else would.

Scenes with Doric
6 scenes Doric Doric What is it, exactly, that you bring to this?
Me? I'm a planner. You know, I make plans.
Doric You've already made the plan, so what value do you have now?
If the plan fails, the existing plan, I make a new plan.
Doric So you make plans that fail.
No.
He also plays the lute.
Holga, not relevant.
So she did become a deer.
Only at the very end. [to Doric] Are you absolutely sure about Sofina?
Doric I saw her markings.
No wonder I couldn't counter her Time Stop.
Forge knew all along he's got my daughter in there with a Red Wizard.
Doric The vault is protected by something called "Morty Caiman's Arcane Seal".
Mordenkainen?
Doric Yeah, that's it.
What?
If the vault has Mordenkainen's Seal, we're not getting in. It's impenetrable.
Can't you just open it with magic?
Okay, here we go. I hate how everyone thinks that you can solve any problem with magic. There are limits. This isn't some bedtime story. This is the real world.
Doric So there's no way to open it?
Well, I mean, if I was one of the world's most powerful sorcerers, so no. Or if we had the Helm of Disjunction.
It's a helmet that disables all nearby enchantments. But it doesn't matter. That thing went missing ages ago. We're done. [gets up]
Even if we could, I couldn't use it without attuning to it, which I'm terrible at.
Oh, you can do it. I know you can.
You saying that doesn't make it so.
Yeah, but you saying it does.
But I can't.
Yes you can.
But I won't.
Just say it.
No!
Ugh, fine. Can we just keep this between us? I don't wanna hurt the group's morale. [walks to sit back down]
What morale? [sits back down as well]
Doric Holga knows where the helmet is.
My tribe fought the Cult of the Dragon over it at the Evermoors. We can just ask them where it went.
That battle was a century ago. They're all dead.
So ask them with magic.
Doric He just made a whole speech how he can't fix everything with magic.
[he admits it]
Actually, that is something I can do. [Holga chuckles in approval, as if to say "I told you so."]
Doric [shocked]
You can bring back the dead?
I can't, uh, bring them back, but I have this token that lets me ask corpses some questions and then they go back to being dead.
Doric Yuck.
Yeah, it's fairly horrible.
It's fairly wonderful. We're off to the Evermoors. Thank you, Simon, for the drinks. [he and Holga get up]
Oh, what? No...
Just pay it with magic.
How 'bout this: we use the Hither-Thither staff to get into the vault.
No, I've explained this. You can't Hither-Thither into a room you can't see.
I'm not saying that. I'm saying we put the portal on something and then sneak that thing into the vault.
Mm, the only thing going in that vault is treasure.
So we put the portal on some treasure.
Forge did say the richest men in Baldur's Gate and Waterdeep are bringing loot to the city. They'll be traveling the High Road. We could catch one of their convoys.
Doric There'll be dozens of guards.
Yeah, but the guards will guarding against people taking things out of their wagon, not putting them in! Holga, I could kiss you!
Try it.
[hears the horn that signals the High Sun Games]
The Games have started. We're going to Plan C.
Oh, buttocks. What's Plan C?
Plan C is we go back to Plan A. [turns and points to Simon] We're gonna attune to the helmet.
Why don't you just call it Plan A?
Plan A has a stink on it.
That's not true! You couldn't attune to it. Look at me. Look at me! Huh? Do you remember that job in Loudwater? You couldn't spider-climb until Jolym sicked his dog on you. And when we robbed the spear of Aoth Fezim, your Stone Skin spell failed until the arrows were inches away. Even in Triboar, you flipped the gravity of the whole theater!
Doric [amazed]
You did?
[embarrassed]
By accident. It was wild magic and that only happened because they were gonna kill me.
Exactly! Look, you are at your strongest when you think you're at your weakest. But you deliver. [pats Simon on the cheek] You're gonna get into that vault, okay? Not because you can, but because you must.
Doric I'm gonna keep chipping away. If I can get a quarter inch, I'll be able to squeeze through as a worm.
As a worm! A-as a worm! Perfect! Do you see this? Now we have a Plan D if Plan C fails.
Isn't Plan D just Plan B again?
Plan B has a stink too.
It all stinks.
[at the clubhouse of the Emerald Enclave, fireworks exploding in color, lighting up the night sky]
Szass Tam won't be happy about this.
Well, if he comes back, we'll be ready.
Doric "We"?
Oh, that's right. You don't like humans, do you?
Doric Some are okay. What about you? Going back to the Harpers? Be with your people?
I'm with my people.
So, uh, I know my last attempt to court you was quite bad. [chuckles] But I wonder if you'd consider having another go at it.
Doric [pause]
Yeah, alright.
Doric Calm down.
Right. [sighs]
