I cannot even roll double digits.

But you have magic hand for feeding the wolves

 

[TD]

My river bath strategy worked last time.

 

[T'anks]

I've got 1 charge of Bardic Inspiration left until our Long Rest.

I would, uh... probably suggest we don't burn it here.

Not even if it gets us some good wolf puppers?

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Have you seen his rolls?!

Wolf meat is delicious.

Campaign - Lost Mines of Phandelver (Chapter 1)

T'anks looks at the drawing, the crude craftsmanship serving to obfuscate the exact nature of its meaning. She glances down at Other Goblin's corpse and then back to the drawing. She distractedly begins to follow Dragmire towards Dude's location, mulling things over in her head... If your...

I just want to preserve this because it is the moment this officially became a D&D campaign.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

That’s why he needs the extra d6, lol

 

[TD]

I'll roll a nat20. Don't worry.

@VashTheStampede

Should I do a second post with the animal handling or wait for the results of my survival?

 

[Kutshort Yes]

The outcome of the Survival check affects the DC of the Animal Handling check. So you can go ahead and attempt that one.

 

[TD]

LMAO.

 

[TD]

This is lunacy.

 

[VashTheStampede]

I have never before seen the D&D Gods with such a vendetta

 

[Cookie Sweetmead]

He needs to make a sacrifice or something

 

[TD]

The wolves happily ignore the Tortle and immediately set in on the pot of Dubious Stew.

As the clearly famished wolves get closer and closer to the bottom of the pot, they start sneaking glances at the Bard to try and decide his intentions and whether they should attempt to augment the soup with a bit more protein...

 

[TD]

He needs to make a sacrifice or something

...is Dude the sacrifice?

 

[TD]

I GOT DOUBLE DIGITS.

Dude saves it for when it really counts.

 

[VashTheStampede]

well that seems like a perfect cliffhanger for me to sign off for the night and hit the bed

 

[T'anks]

HMM.

That might hurt.

 

[VashTheStampede]

I had a lot of fun with this shit today. Cheers, y'all

 

[TD]

Assuming I can manage the climb with my arm in this condition.

You basically asked for the 1 to be fair.

 

[TD]

I had a lot of fun with this shit today. Cheers, y'all

Same!

 

[Cookie Sweetmead]

20 and then a 1. All things in balance!

 

[TD]

Speaking of balance - Dude's got dice!

 

[Kutshort Yes]

I had a lot of fun with this shit today. Cheers, y'all

Wait, I want to know if I have a puppers to take with me

 

[T'anks]

Knowing when to quit while you're ahead challenge: Impossible.

 

[TD]

Have you seen his rolls?!

Karma?

Is that you?

 

[T'anks]

Look at the bright side, I fell and concussed myself stealthily!

 

[TD]

Good think you have...

3 whole hp.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

Look at the bright side, I fell and concussed myself stealthily!

Maybe my acrobatics saved you?

 

[TD]

In before kut's acrobatics save T'anks but lets the wolves free and they maul someone to death.

 

[TD]

 

[VashTheStampede]

I might need to start locking the thread when I go to bed at night

 

[TD]

To protect us from ourselves?

Yeah maybe.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

I might need to start locking the thread when I go to bed at night

Just rewind time to when I made friends with a good boy

 

[TD]

Dragmire when he catches up:

 

[VashTheStampede]

shortkut with his wolf and all this shit going on around him:

Dragmire:

 

[VashTheStampede]

Dragmire when he catches up:

Christina was literally just describing making this exact post as you posted it

 

[TD]

Dragmire is probably trying to find the quickest way to get to Waterdeep at this point.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

shortkut with his wolf and all this shit going on around him:

I’m sorry, all I took from your post is that I have a pet wolf. I’m going to need to think of a name for him

 

[Kutshort Yes]

I’m sorry, all I took from your post is that I have a pet wolf. I’m going to need to think of a name for him

Okay, done thinking. I’m going to name him Hopper

 

[TD]

Fwiw - I'm around but I'm just waiting for Vash to untangle this mess before more in character stuff.

 

[Kutshort Yes]

@VashTheStampede is there anyway in-universe where I will be able to communicate with Hopper in the future?

Just look at that good boy

 

[VashTheStampede]

Hm. I'm not near my books right now so this is all from memory so it may not be accurate.

I don't think Arcane Trickster rogues get access to Speak With Animals, but I could be wrong.

If you take the Magic Initiate feat, I think you can choose it from the Bard or Druid's spell list.

There's a high level Druid/Bard spell called Awaken that would give a wolf the ability to speak 1 language of your choosing. But that's a 5th level spell (not the same as being level 5) and costs something like 500-1000g to cast.
