Discussion Tavern: Sleeping Giant

[Zesty Zapcrackle]

We're currently fighting a giant octopus covered in mushrooms.

Moonsprout and his dick dagger are in heaven. The rest of us... not so much.

 

[TD]

Nein.

Oh cool so there's still a chance I'm the first to get perma-death.

 

[Zesty Zapcrackle]

Nein.

I came closest to dying against the drakes, mostly because I chose to heal Nae so he could wallop a drake.

I know my role... support and sacrifice. I wanted to be an artificer to build cool things, but I'm not there yet. My crossbow has been a fun little damage maker though.

 

[Zesty Zapcrackle]

Oh cool so there's still a chance I'm the first to get perma-death.

Just let me know, I'll run to you in 80 turns and heal you.

Maybe 40 if I dash.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Nein.

9 people died? I didn’t think the party was that large

 

[VashTheStampede]

take me down to the goblin city

where the party is green and the rolls are shitty

Moonsprout ate them with all the wind spore mushrooms.

I didn't think it was possible to make Guns N Roses any worse.....

The fact it feels like we are struggling this bad after downing that first goblin so easy is comical to me.

 

[T'anks]

I just now saw where Other Goblin ran to.

Holy shit that was a bad idea.

The most useful thing Dude has done for this battle is to take a bath to distract the goblins.

Like literally. That's the most useful thing he's done.

[Cookie Sweetmead]

WAIT THERE'S A D100??

When does that even get used.

Wild magic!

So Wild Magic is a sorcerer type that can cause the DM to have the sorcerer to roll a D20 after the sorcerer casts a spell. Upon a 1, the sorcerer rolls a D100 to see what crazy BS happens. Because their magic is all wild and stuffs.

When Tortle Dude dies, my next backup should totally be a Sorcerer.

Yes this is where I'm expecting things to go.

I cursed Dude the moment I was like "hey everyone, here's who is best at each skill keep it in mind!".

 

[Kutshort Yes]

I'm looking forward to the bromance between Tortle Danger and Boh'veen!

 

[Kutshort Yes]

The goblins, drakes, and whatever else don't stand a chance.

gelatinous cubes

those are my favorite monster

If those are what they sound like - that would be the end of The Four Adventurers of Chaos.

Yes that is what I named our group in my head a while ago.

 

[T'anks]

I'm not sure about "Cubes," but if they're anything like... say, the Like-Likes in Zelda? Nuke from orbit with extreme prejudice.

 

[TD]

Wtf is a like-like?

 

[T'anks]

That's the one what absorbs Link, spits him out - and steals his shield in the process.

 

[Nac McWeeble]

Wtf is a like-like?

A dirty rotten thieving son of a bitch of a monster.

 

[Magni Kragtail]

The forbidden Jell-O

 

[TD]

...I don't remember those but I've also only played the NES and SNES ones...

 

[VashTheStampede]

That's where they're from!

The orange fuckers are Like Likes

How did I never know that???

 

[VashTheStampede]

My favorite Zelda monster trivia:



This fuckin asshole is called Pols Voice.

The Nintendo Famicom controller had a microphone built into it. If you yell into the microphone, all Pols Voices in the room immediately die. Because of their big ass ears.

Lots of ports of the game have a button or button combination you can press to emulate this instakill feature.

 

[TD]

...WHAT?

 

[VashTheStampede]

Oh your ears must not be big enough to hear me

 

[TD]

Lmfao

 

[VashTheStampede]

I am seeing that the Pols Voice trivia is news to a lot of people

 

[TD]

What else ya got for us?

 

[Kutshort Yes]

What else ya got for us?

Hopefully a trick to role nat20s

 

[TD]

Shit I'd take double digits at this point.

 

[VashTheStampede]

Link changes colors in certain dungeons because the NES has a specific limitations on how many colors it can display, and the color of his skin in coded to the last available color slot. So when they need that color slot for certain dungeons it changes Link's skin to match.

Also all the dungeon maps were supposed to fit together to create an image the same size as the world map. The person in charge of that task got it all planned out...then realized he only used half the space allotted. Miyamoto said it was fine and then implemented the "Second Quest", basically inventing New Game+

 

[T'anks]

Just because he's called a Goblin Boss, that doesn't mean its a Boss Fight.

Just throwing that out there.
