I love how Prudence was willing to save Merilwen from the eels, and that she was willing to sacrifice Egbert to do this.
Egbert was also willing to sacrifice Egbert, a true paladin/himbo
Prudence has previously declared Merilwen her favorite and that she'd kill her last, so...
@@mathsalot8099 I know for sure she claimed to kill Corazon last (in the episode with the high school cult) so those final deaths will have to be co-ordinated 😂😂
Johnny didn't have to open their soul for the bit, but they did, and I'm eternally grateful. If only young Johnny had had an eclectic group of misfit adventurers giving their aid.
I just hope they don't use "mother's maiden name" as a password reminder prompt...
We all need an eclectic group of misfit adventurers giving their aid.
Egbert saying "Not today, Death; maybe tomorrow?" sounds less like a triumphant taunt and more like scheduling an appointment
Dob praising Jonathan while drawing a pentagram is maybe one of the funniest moments in the series
For some reason, I really want to see Jonathan Bennett and Alfred Strangetide as NPCs in an adventure together.
I thought that too! They'd be such a cute adventuring duo.
Brought together by their claims of having two PhDs.
Maybe not as NPCs. It would be fun if the players would play NOCs for a session.
Alfred as Jonathan's professor
First I thought Johnny was describing Alfred at the beginning. 😅
"I'm sexually attracted to eels, I'll buy one!" Broke me more than it should have 😂😂
I'll definitely remember that one for a bit lol
Percy the Pervert Pirate
I like how the fishmonger's response to being kicked in the balls twice and robbed is to acknowledge fair play on Corazon's part
I'm so glad they remembered the wood elf don't conduct electricity thing from the wild wild woods
granting actual mechanical advantage off of a lame joke is kinda lame. cant believe johnny went with it.
@@MrGhostTheBigRoast eh, I'd say its fairly on brand for them. Didn't they house rule it that thunder is the actual electricity bit in that setting due to a similarly silly joke or confused moment way earlier on?
@@gothicbutterfly013 And the layer of Geth's oxygen may change height on a whim
@@MrGhostTheBigRoast night in Geth has literally the vacuum of space coming down to the ground
@@MrGhostTheBigRoast This is a weird take to have however many hundreds of hours into the OXboxtra DnD lore.
There's so many little things I love about the OX crew. Andy's laugh, Ellen's facial expressions, Mike's "down for everything" attitude, Luke's hilarious social commentary, Janes blood thirsty murderous hunger, and last but not least Johnny's "just vibes".
Ellen's "I'm so sorry" followed immediately by Jane saying "No you're not" killed me 😂😂
32:30
Just imagine, they could have skipped the entire eel bit of the adventure if they just thought "Hey, since everyone believes there are eels in the lake, if we just reveal that there are no eels in the lake, then they could only conclude that Bennett must have destroyed all the eels in the lake, giving him credit."
I like the idea of The crew slowly building a lake dungeon
Which they then need to have an adventure through in order to get the “liquid investment”
If they do, get Luke to GM it, the other oxventures have to fetch all thier gold back.
@@lightningwingdragon973 genius.
@@lightningwingdragon973 Kind of covered during the Legacy of Dragons arc.
Nothing too lore breaking but the assertion that this didn't violate the continuity is a little shaky in this one.
Unless they were stating it as more a declaration of intent.
I like to think that every body of water in the Lake District has had Dob deposit some of the party's funds. A diverse portfolio of investments, perhaps? Or maybe a substantial buying of "bunds" from the Federal Reservoir?
"Hello, I'm sexually attracted to eels. I'd like to buy one."
This is the sexy dragon meta all over again 🤣🤣
Man, Dob's had a rough day:
1st: Water boarding
2nd: Summons Skeletons only to be reminded of his failed wedding
3rd: Inadvertently causes massive deforestation
4th: Follows up the deforestation with accidental wildfires
5th: Reminded of that time he killed all those orphans by Merilwen
At least he got to help summon his second animal themed greater demon though
But he wiffed that with non-regulation candles too
I kind of think some of it is karma for all the times he's spent the guild's gold frivolously or tossed gold into a body of water or fell in "love" (let's admit it; it was just attraction) with people who clearly want him dead.
For the rest of my days, I'll be kept awake at night wondering if _"I lied about slaying the eels of the Lake District and need to fake some evidence"_ was the only excuse anyone needed to give.
love how immediate andy jumped over to the DM seat and started narrating
That's why I love Johnny, steel chair same damage as a longsword. 👌
It's a greatclub! They just forgot the -1 for improvised. ;)
To be fair Corazon has always been devastating with chair attacks.
@@GreatZarquon surely he's proficient with chair by now, if he was a ranger his favoured enemy would be upholstered.
"Hey Jonathan, if we throw you in a rotational pattern like you're a human-sized weapon, y'think you could kill this Demon?"
"Shuriken!"
Regrettably, inspiration. 👏😆
I fear we have once again missed an opportunity to summon the greater demon know as The CoroSwan!
Johnny brought the fish puns on themselves by demanding Merilwen come up with an excuse for the fish shop.
Oh my goodness, yes! If I'm not mistaken, I counted 7 and still kept laughing.
themself, not themselves- enby folks aren't three kobolds in a trenchcoat as far as anyone Else needs to know 👀
@@palmtree1958 Ok but now I have a colleague I'll never be able to see without imagining them as three kobolds so thanks a lot :p
@@dexterpearson8689 8, I counted. (10 after corazons attracted to eels bit)
@@pinkcowqueen Oh, thank you. I guess I missed some from laughing too much.
I was really hoping Dobb or Corazon would say, "Prudence, when someone asks if you are a Great Demon, you say yes!"
I understood that reference!!
Oh, that's good. That one made me bust a -ghost- gut.
That wood elf immune to electric damage was such a deep cut from wild wild woods
Merilwen: “Show me a picture of a lion”, later Merilwen turns into a photograph 😄
merilwen so close to either crying or punching dob in the face during what the skeletons did to the forest lol
22:45 You know when you do a quest in an RPG that's like 'collect 50 rocks' and you try and hand in the rocks you hae and the games like 'no go and get new ones'
The beautiful image of the guild at 42:23 fleeing Ardent Keep in panic, screaming, in the below formation, was a treat:
- Prudence lugging a bag full of angry, dying electric eels
- Egbert occasionally jolting with latent electricity, showing off his skeleton
- Corazon being chased by an angry fishmonger who's screaming 'Guards! Guards! There's a maritime pervert over here!'
- Merilwen, furious at the ecological devastation and mortified by the terrified gasping words of suffocating eels
- Dob, running away from Merilwen, dragging a confused Jonathan with him
Iike how it's a persuasion and not deception check when corazon says he's sexually attracted to eels
It doesn’t make sense to call for a deception check because that’s only for when you’re saying something not true.
Nothing against Johnny's DMing style, but the number of times they've had the party roll deception is in the low single digits at the absolute most. It's consistently persuasion at this table
I'm 41minutes in and this is the most insane and out of hand I've seen an adventure get. I absolutely love it
I love Ellen's non-verbal role playing. And Egbert being the party's designated pan sexual.
Literally every member of the party is a designated pansexual
Everyone in the party feels extremely bisexual disaster.
One cat man shows up and all of them melt
I could and would watch an entire series of Johnny riffing as the skeletons. Oxventures undead roast when?
Jane should adapt this for a Two Point University stream. The chaos here would give C'thon and the Scarlet Witch a run for their money.
The use of a Charisma Persuasion check HEAVILY implies a lack of deception… you do you Corazón 😳
Johnny has never used deception rolls in all of Oxventure. It‘s driving me nuts sometimes… 😂
Johnny's agonised scream at the fish jokes. Flippin heck I was floundering in laughter.
27:30 Clearly Corazon has forgotten about that one time near the end of Exhibition Impossible where The Skeletons carried the guild to The Joyful Damnation whilst saying mean things like, "Your father still wished he'd had you killed!"
Edit: Actually, now that I think about it, he might have repressed that memory.
I like the implications that Marillwin has only seen 3 animals.
she used to only be able to transform into three animals, her ability to become any animal she's seen is fairly recent. since then she has turned into a few things besides the original three like a duck.
She used to limit herself beyond the actual rules. It's one of the things I love about them ribbing her with the Moon Beam spell.
She stepped up and quit handicapping the abilities that she gets from being a druid.
Though she generally restricts her wildshapes to a small number of creatures that she has props for even now.
Marillwen? Since when did a Wood Elf evolve into a Pokemon? Or is this a new Mystery Dungeon concept? (I know you mean Merilwen; the joke just popped into my head and I couldn't help but run with it.)
@@macgyver42563 Yeah, Marillwen, Eggecutorburt, Corviswan, Dobdrio, Prudedenne, and Literally Everyone Else in the Dex. We're clearly talking about the same series.
@@tomisntblue But seriously; Is there a Pokemon Mystery Dungeon style DND game which combines the two franchises? I legit want to know.
This has very big 'end of term' energy, after the relatively serious acting moments of Legacy of Dragons. They're really letting loose and going insane. I love it so much!!
The event this was at was a month before the start of Legacy, so I wonder if it was more a case of Johnny going "right, get it out your systems!"
@@gaylerichardson7828 They likely already started filming Legacy of Dragons by then though, so getting the chance just let loose here.
Jane was the ONLY one at the table who refused to join in on the fish puns 😭😂
Never get high on your own supply of sea-based madness
1:26:38 The chant and the mimic of Luke doing the ritual was hilarious 😂
1:06:04 proof that the dice gods hate Johnny and love the Oxventurers. That was _brilliant._
The entire scene at the fish market was gold from start to finish
I wonder what a session with Andy as DM would look like XD
Pure chaos. Now imagine Mike 🤣
@@deadlymelody27 I wonder if mike would go the chaos approach and D100 settings everything 5minute before the session starts. ^^
Well, we shall soon find out!
Live Oxventures are always one of my favorites. It's just a joy to see Johnny and the gang.vibe with the energy of the crowd.^^
I just realised if prudence is a werebear can’t she turn into a pure bear as well as a hybrid form, so they have two bears in the party, it can be the return of a bear stacked on a bear!
If prudence as a werebear “prue bear” bites bearilwen will bearilwen become a bear-bear 🤔
@@daniellockley-smith9766 Good question…
Don't forget Corazon the _bare..._
Very few werebeasts are able to master their transformations. And some of that requires an acceptance of the condition that alters their mindset.
It's something like 1% really. Though I would also point out that Johnny has said that the werebear stuff would only occur as plot demanded it.
@@MorinehtarTheBlue Also, Prudence is all for the viciousness of the bite&claw, so she‘s accepted it after the werewolf episode. I‘d say her chances of controlling her bear form are good.
Luke: "I really don't think this is unreasonable."
Me: "Fair enough."
Me: "Yes, you would think that."
Could gave stopped it cold with that witty rejoinder. Though still glad that Johnny didn't.
It's all gravy 🤣 bloody well done, Ellen
Andy's summoning chant was weirdly deep
"Not today, death. Maybe tomorrow!" - Egbert the Careless, 2023
Loved hearing all the praise for Jonathan. For....... No obvious reason
Thumbnail makes them look like they're standing in police lineup, finally getting their comeuppance.
Dob acting innocent, Egbert looking suspicious...
yep future lifers
Merilwen: ya I moon beamed them after they surendered ,what ya gonna do about it?
@@mrsomething1312 You are hereby sentenced to suffocation by giant pearl.
Oh No! The Consequences!
I loved this, especially when johnny punned back it was amazing,
Egbert interacting with La Vache Mauve was very sweet!
I love Johnny sort of checking with Dob about the order to look for a cave with the crystal what's-it, and then having the skeletons proceed to start destroying the Tangle. Even before Merilwyn mentioned that the spell was still active I was wondering if she was hearing them get hacked to bits.
I really, really should know better, but I was actually talking to the vid as if they could hear me and asking why the hell they did just kill the one what's-it instead of going through all the trouble of bringing in a 2nd one to fight with the 1st one.
Bringing up the orphans again is so good and I love how Johnny somehow managed to forget about that.
"You make all my ideas sound like bad ideas." That had me wheezing even harder. Never change, Dob.
Lavash Mauve and "reveal myself to the boy" is now the funniest moment.
I swear this is probably the most chaotic episode yet. I know there's always chaos of some sort, but they really were in their element when it comes to chaos with this one. I adore Johnny's backstory about the origins of this Oxventure and of Jonathon Bennett.
Yesterday was a rough day at work and I'm not sure how tomorrow (Sunday) will go, so I very much needed the many laughs this gave me.
Think this might be the funniest oxventure and that’s saying a lot. These people were in their BAG
Poor merilwen she gets dunked on for being treasurer all first half then second half her one true passion gets chopped and burnt, then she sees a display of over excessive hunting, all done by her friend dob
I know it won’t happen but it would be interesting if all this in such short did create a fracture in their friendship which comes to a head later on
So much happened! I'll need to rewatch it immediately to fully process what happened.
This is why I'm glad the podcasts have caught up with the videos now, it means I can listen to this one again before the next video drops and make sure I didn't miss anything.
Seeing it live was even better. Of the three months available to choose from, I'm glad this is the one I attended. Even if it was initially for the exclusive pins
The eels caper made me cry laughing in person, and it remains extremely funny for a second watch. 😂
Omg the eels made me cry😂😂 imagine if somehow at the end most of the oxventurers were in the net and the eels got out 😂🤣😂
You know, I think this might be the messiest oxventure yet...
Wow Johnny's hair looks fabulous!
This oxventure has been savage with the shots fired
Loved this one, definitely some of the most chaotic moments they've ever done.
When he said the name of the npc, I had to give a little bit of pause and a chuckle, because that is ALMOST my name LOL
*they Johnny uses they/them pronouns
I thought Dob was able to see the sky cow now
Not necessarily a permanent condition. Much in the same way that Le Vache Mauve reveals himself to John Bennett in this episode.
60 skeletons and 1 flying flaming skull lmao
and 1 skeleton mule.
@@Kalion-mi1zc When did the skeleton mule come in? I don't remember that.
@@NehnBellanaris the episode where they help a cyclops move house and had the skeletons help the mule haul his things.
@@joshuahadams I was kinda hoping for the name of the episode, because I thought that I had watched them all.
@@NehnBellanaris think it’s called “Mule be Sorry” or something along those lines! ☺️
This was my first live Oxventure and what an absolute pleasure it was. I look forward to attending many more!
Another awesome and hilarious episode! Couldn't help but imagine Merilwen walking around with her face messed up by the eel.
_Alternative names for the Oxventurers:_
Prudence the hate wizard
Merilwen the merciless
Egbert the chaotic gastronome
Dob the scourge of orphans
Corazon the maritime pervert
I love how chaotic this episode ended up being
They were on fire tonight. This had moments of goon show level silliness 😂
Almost as much as the forest.
Thank you Johnny and the crew!
With everything that happens to Dob it wouldn’t surprise me if he became a villain
Now I understand why Merilwen has lurched towards neutral evil...
Seal Gaiman seems to have gotten a bit squished. Lol.
Honestly, I think Eggbert is secretly a koa-toa, and it's his pure devotion to levashmauve that sustains it as a god.
The eel bit had me cry-laughing. I had to pause the video for a minute
OMG!!! How Johnny & Andy both put their face in their hands when Ellen makes a pun. It got me laughing so hard I can't breathe. x'D
Ellen really~ was in her top pun game this whole session. x'D lol
And gosh, I love it when Johnny does the Skeletons. It's always so hilarious. Yet so cute too. x'D lol
Also: Uhhhhh, Luke? Wasn't the deforestation already the toll? I mean: You said to fan out and search the woods. They decided to chop teh woods down and cause a forest fire. That's quite a bit of devastation so, quite a toll upon the woods. xD lol
Also: Wouldn't they just have to wait till the cute Crystal Quaggoth has taken a poop and than just take the gem eyes from the dung? xD lol
lol, time for Jonathan & Egbert fan fiction. xD lol
I see, well: I guess the moral of the story is never lie about what you have or haven't done when applying for university huh? xD
Btw: What are you guys gonna do with D&D now though. Especially with the Delay on the OGL 1.1 update (and thus not walked back, but delayed because they are gonna push it through, regardless of backlash)
I'm hoping they'll keep going and just keep doing what they've been doing. Johnny is already very flexible with the rules and such, and the whole group is very relaxed with how they play (which Is what I love about them anyway). From what I've seen online, a lot of people plan to keep playing as they are and if they need books or whatever, there's always piracy or just asking someone to send them pdfs of what they need.
The shots about his wedding were bad enough. Then the deforestation AND setting the whole thing ablaze.
Hell I don't even really believe that they fulfilled their terms of the bargain. When did they actually search exactly?
@@SolaScientia Very complicated issue. I mean this show predates the announcement but they were still using D&D Beyond at the time.
It's really just a matter of not adopting D&D One. Most actual plays might just not use any newer material.
Though they could still be vulnerable to legal disputes.
All campaigns are the intellectual property of Johnny. WotC can‘t do shit.
one of the great things about the oneshot nature of most oxventures is that now and then the gang end up doing something that doesn't quite make sense for any of their characters (like helping a student they've never met with some tasks that don't benefit them) and you just have to assume that each of them assumes one of the others is getting something out of this and that none of them will question it
I don't. They've certainly done a number of selfish things over the course of the campaign but I'd point out that the worst things they've ever done have been bungles and not acts of intention.
The orphanage and burning down a town or two were done by mistake (even if their consciences never really troubled them).
It's more of an any given Sunday thing whether they are feeling charitable or not. And Prudence is rarely allowed to act in character regardless.
Except in rare cases like ingredients for summoning a greater demon. Where she's essentially been allowed to murder/sacrifice someone offscreen.
i smashed like so hard on this that i nearly broke my phone in half - absolutely outstanding work, everyone!
Think that was my fave session in a long time. Some absolutely amazing one-liner moments
The eel situation was dangerous hilariously
43:43 anyone rewatching this, enjoy this moment when they finally get everyone out of the net and have the eels in the net, and Ellen is about to use the net to wrap the fish merchant. HAHAH that got me... Picture her using the net and everyone goes "WHAT DID YOU DO WITH THE EELS????"
What a ride of a session.
That lion is totally adorable
Why was the goal of this one "How many mental breakdowns can we make dob have in 2 hours?" I'm not complaining!
"no more dob ideas" because that is how you end up with blood orphanages, baby scholars, and Bob.
Damn it Amazon, give them an animated show deal!!
Yeah, cause Amazon's doing a great job adapting properties right now.
I mean, Rings of Power may not be great, but aren't Reacher, The Boys, and Invincible all Amazon? Those are pretty good
@@micahnewby7964 they also did a great animated series of Critical Roll.
@@Hopalongtom ooo, do you mean Vox Machina or something else?
@@micahnewby7964 that's the one, I forgot the name as I typed it.
These are always absolutely hilarious but this one threw me into a laughing fit so for long😂😂😂
19:50 I like how the man cosplaying a pirate and playing Dungeons and Dragons thinks lord of the Rings is nerd stuff lol
That's the joke, probably lol
THE RETURN OF THE SKELETONS!!!!! I love skeletons!!
Yessss! They're awesome! 💀✨
In my part of Virginia, USA, today, it was 41F (approx. 5C), cloudy and windy. Made it feel like 33F (approx. 0.5C). Vodding this stream made forget about all of that and gave me one of the best laughs I've had all day! 😂
(1) I think Merilwen will give Dob a very stern talking-to about [ blank ]. (2) I think I've officially seen Corazon break several times. (3) I think we'll see Johnathon in a future Oxventure, maybe join the Oxventurers. (4) Multiple parts of this episode - I hope - will make the "best of" compilation video for this season. (Pleaseeeeeee?????)
I don't know how y'all manage to outdo yourselves, but y'all did it! Thank you all so much. Looking forward to the next one. Still subscribed. 👏 🫶 🤗
The whole fish market was gold. Oh, who am I kidding, it was all gold.
Wow that merilwyns dig was deep.
"I hit him with a steel chair." 😃
Every single pun got me good, love you guys
Watching this at the small hours of the morning, it is very hard not to cackle like a madman.
I honestly think this is my favorite one so far
Charismatic Cheat Friends
Nooo! I caught up with the oxventure playlist. What shall I do with my life now? 😭😭
How were the eels the hardest opponents?
As always Johnny you are amazing and perfect ❤
