I'm probably gonna start quoting that
Sedrick Shadden
It’s from Nietzsche, damnit.
@@asbestosfish_ and I wouldn't know that because I'm home schooled and I don't really have a history class.
@@sedrickshadden9196 its philosophy. Thats why. States that allow home schooling don't really get to teach that kind of stuff unless you have a parent willing to teach you those kind of critical thinking skills.
that is so true
I was expecting the Valley King's men to be the ones pulling the boulder up and then just dripping it on the party.
A literal "rocks fall; everyone dies." Peace on Earth, indeed.
It's like how I dealt with some of my murderhobos by exploiting things I knew about them IRL. Like how one was edgy, but I knew he was super into nature IRL and I used that to make him feel like he had the spotlight for a few sessions. He became more amenable after that. My other friend never cared for NPCs or roleplay, but I know that he loves playing RTSs and he has ADHD. So I gave him a small group of people to lead. Turns out, he is really good being a leader and he cared a lot about those people. I turned a murderhobo into someone that wanted to build schools and provide peace in the lands, and another one into someone that was willing to not only socialize, but focus more on personal character development instead of instant-kill methods.
This is really cool and thoughtful!
DESCRIBE ALL METHODS
@@veryangryduckpl2122 like, the methods of me getting them to stop? Because I already said that part in the comment. Or are you asking about the instant kill stuff? Because it was more about how he was trying to find ways to instantly kill enemies; like drowning them in certain liquids, knowing what animals he can extract venom from so he can inject them into people to kill them, different kinds of poisonous plants that he knows would kill people fast, trying to farm XP by poisoning the water supply, questions involving spell combinations that would stop people from breathing/have cardiac issues/cause mental issues/etc, and so much more. He just wanted to be able to powergame and that isn't really welcome at my table since it takes away a lot of the fun from everyone else.
@@SatoKasra52 Wait, you had only 2 players to stop murderhoboing?
@@veryangryduckpl2122 Yeah, the rest of my players are actually great roleplayers.
Good story. Though I’m honestly amazed at the amount of comments stating they didn’t understand the point. The valley king was greedy, he didn’t like the mountain people’s proposition to share wisdom and wealth. He lead the party around with praises, using them to take the wealth forcibly. It’s a sad story about manipulation and greed.
My party is entirely too literal. If I tried this, they'd stare at the rock and say 'So where's the gold?'. 🤦
That would be me 😂
I legit didnt understand until the end of the story when he said
"They needed to feel like heros for a while"
And I went
"OOOH! THere was no treasure and the good guys killed innocent people. Dang."
But still
Why kill the bad king?
I would have enslaved the evil kingdom to dig up the mountain for gold.

Papa's gotta get paid somehow.
@@togglemutt9892 look up one tin soldier
What you do then is play them the song with the video.
@@BaoHadir I could make them listen to it on repeat for an hour and they likely still wouldn't get it.
@@nimhfinitepossibilities7609 That's too bad.
I once turned the song Hotel California into a game of Dread. My players had no clue until the end. I framed it as if it was a scary movie and if you have ever played dread you know it never ends well. When my last living player thought they were safe I sprung on them that they were still in the hotel as a phone wakes them up (which I had done earlier in the game) and they realized they are stuck and have to keep reliving the same night of terror forever. I started the song at low volume and as I was reading the epilogue I prepared I slowly raised the volume like the end to a movie. My players loved it and to this day say it's been our best non D&D game ever of any other system
ZAaagh! BY THE LIVING BARD YIRBEL, The singing caught me off guard!!
Did you like it?
We need more guards on watch to prevent this sort of thing from happening again. It was like a surprise attack from Rebecca Black.
@@allthingsdnd not at all. Please never do this again.
@@allthingsdnd hahahaaa voice of an angel... One cast out of the divine realms, whose throat is scorched & scarred from breathing the sulphurous fumes of the horrendous plane of his punishment. 😆
... But an angel, none the less. 🙃
All Things DnD not too bad! Would have been a lot better if you managed to Synch your voice with the string instrument playing though.
Murderhoboectomy is new favourite word 🤣
@dg areis what about socialmediamasochist
I ran a session based solely on the lyrics to "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" after the PCs got high in mushrooms.
1.I’m not a DM, but my DM did once let my bard build a magical staircase for the party by singing “Stairway to Heaven,” and then stop singing so pusuing goblins would fall to their deaths
2. Unfortunately, I agree with many commenters that you should never sing again, and that you should have named the song at the end
Maybe just a Lot of warmup in future? The flat notes got to me :/
Incorporated a song into a campaign? My friend, I've based entire campaigns off of songs. I ran an 80's themed sci fi game whose soundtrack consisted of nothing but 80's pop, new wave, and synth rock:
I had an entire race of aliens inspired by David Bowie.
I managed to choreograph a fight in an MTV-space-station to the tune of Money for Nothing.
I named the thieves guild "the Wild Boys" and designed based on the Duran Duran music video.
I even had an orchestral rendition of Take On Me playing for the game's big climax.
I regret nothing!
Feels very JoJo, I love it :)
Nor should you. I could only wish I was that awesome.
Nor should you
If you had a fight with a mad scientist to the tune of Oingo Boingo's Weird Science, you would have made a campaign off all the music I've been listening to for the past week
I absolutely loathe that song (had a choir teacher in middle school who loved it and crammed it down our throats), but this was a fantastic use of it.
what song is this
Eugene I'm not gonna tell you my last name it’s called One Tin Soldier and it’s one of the most depressing songs I’ve ever been subjected to.
At some point I’m going to have an empty room in a dungeon with the word “Overthinking” written on the wall. Nothing else will be in the room.
Never heard the song, but it's a pretty good way to un-murder-hobo a group. I honestly didn't get big portions of the story and had to rewatch. Especially the stone part. So the rock just said "peace on Earth"? If that's what the treasure was, why didn't they just tell the valley people that? If their real goal was peace on Earth, then what was their relationship with the valley people in the first place? I think because I've never heard the song I have too many logistical questions to really appreciate it.
The mountain people try to share wisdom instead of wealth which angers the valley people. It isn't super clearly articulated in the song either, but that doesn't matter the point comes across fine.
You are right to say that this message, peace on Earth, is a strange thing to literally bury underneath a stone.
So what if it was nothing more then a metaphor, put into song for the poetic nature of it all?
It is just my interpretation of the song but it stems from this question:
Who told the Valley People that treasure existed in the first place?
By raising the possibility that the Valley People where going off misinformation, we turn this line into nothing more then a rumor they where telling each other. When they receive a message that the kingdom in the mountains are willing to enter into an alliance... it isn't enough. They have pictured halls and halls of gold, tons of the stuff, and all they are getting is a letter saying 'lets align and share in prosperity.'
Only after breaking into the treasury, say located in the cellar behind a stone door, do they realize the mountain kingdom was equally as broke. The only thing the Mountain People had to offer, that held any value, was their hand in friendship and the prosperity that would have followed between the two groups. Thus, metaphorically, the only treasure sealed behind a stone was the hope for peace....
@@lostbutfreesoul that clears it up, thanks! :)
@@lostbutfreesoul best explanation for this song I have heard yet.
I think the letter told them exactly what their treasure was, and that they were more than willing to share it with them. The problem is that the valley people thought that they were lying and didn't want to share. So in their greed they stormed the mountain kingdom to get at the piles of gold they had imagined up.
I mentioned this on another youtube video that did this story.
The first clue for the players should have been "Your reputation has proceeded you." when their reputation before had caused everyone else to treat them as pariahs.
good story, that song was bugging me, not that didn't like it, just me banging my head saying "I think i know this song what is it!?!" have not heard it since elementary school(about 20 years ago)
bluedragonninja its One Tin Soldier
Wild hearing that song here. My Mom used to sing it to me as a lullaby when I was little.
@@allthingsdnd Yep. Featured as the theme song for the movie "The Legend of Billy Jack." Believe it or not, that was the second movie about Billy Jack, the first being named "Born Losers."
I've seen both movies. I was a bit young to understand or appreciate the first movie so I didn't actually see it until after I saw the second movie on VHS tape & eventually discovered the first to watch.
@@cleonasedai I've always considered that song to be one of my favorites...Still is, even some number of decades after I first heard it in the Billy Jack movie.
ua-cam.com/video/cTBx-hHf4BE/v-deo.html
I can imaging how many people are unfamiliar with this song and might think it's an original. It's a very poignant tale.
Where is it from?
Is there a better version out there?
The moment I hear that song started to be sung I had to stop myself from crying, cause god damn that song has memories.
I may be alone, but I felt the song sections really interrupted the pacing of the reading of the story.
You are not
No I dont even know wht the frick is going on and the sing just makes it worse.
I was very confused, I had to return to understand what was going on because I don't know the song
I don't know what your talking about, it was beautiful
It wasn’t working for me either
Shrek: *"STOP! SINGING!"*
song is called "one tin soldier" for those interested
Great story. Great dramatic voice. But, yeah, warn me if you’re doing karaoke night so I can skip it... 😉
omg that's exactly what I was thinking when he said it was a song, my dad used to sing that to me when I couldn't sleep, just hearing it again brings a tear to my eye.
I actually incorporated a side quest based on a song that paid off IMMENSELY, like enough to complete the campaign without sacrificing any more morals, basically the campaign required money to save the kingdom but to get money you'd have to do things that the people of the kingdom disliked like raising taxes or imprisoning merchants without much evidence and confiscate their gold etc, and if they did that too much the people would turn against them and oust the king in a coup, so the campaign was all about balance.
Anyway, the song was "the willow maid" by Erutan with a few differences of course, for example there weren't three young men just one, an immensely rich Duke (think Lannister level of wealth) who was head over heels, over a Fae maiden who lived in a willow, with hair like fire and eyes an emerald sheen, the Duke had twice tried to take her and she refused him, he wanted the party to play the part of the third man and take her by force.
After assurances that he had no intentions of hurting her, the party ended up accepting it, we're talking enough to win the rest of the campaign without sacrificing ANY MORE MORALS, so instead of dozens more evil choices we're talking one and you get to save millions of people from dying a horrible death. (the money was necessary to upgrade forts, hire mercenaries, repair walls get better equipment for soldiers so they'd stave off the attack from a gigantic horde of monsters). So it was the fate of one fey vs the fate of millions and the needs of the many vs the needs of the few yada yada.
So they did it, they went into the forest fought a quite a few wolves and Treants that wanted to protect the Fey, when they reached her they cut her tree (to the desperation of the druid of the party who was amazing in improvising a "save the trees" speech/rant that made everyone hesitate which was nice to see cause I normally play druid and she DM's.) as the Duke had told them the tree itself was magic and wouldn't let her leave.
After the tree was cut they dragged her away despite her protests and pleas (again, evil action but as far as they knew... needs of the many) and then I used the words of the song (didn't sing) with a difference:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"She followed them out the forest, and collapsed upon the earth
Her feet had walked but a distance,
From the green land of her birth
She faded into a flower,
That would bloom for one bright eve
They could not take from the forest,
What was never meant to leave.
"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They stared at me and were like "so... do we still get paid?" I smiled and said "no you could not take the maid to Beresford" (Duke's name), and they never wanted me to DM again.
JK, actually, after the session I showed them the story plan (we're very lax about things like that) and they would have been heftily rewarded if they had sided with the Fey, (by both saying "no" outright or when they got to the forest BEFORE the tree was cut) not as much as the the Duke promised but enough that they would have been able to win the campaign with alot less moral dilemmas as she would've gotten Treants, wolves, Blights, Lycanthropes, bears and other forest critters to help against the horde. After that, they learned that you need to look and talk with both sides before making a rash decision and forgave me.
P.S- The Druid/DM loved it and spent the whole week telling them "I FUCKING TOLD YOU" xDDD
Omg I sang this song in elementary school choir and it was my favorite song to sing, but I had forgotten it in the years since and I never thought I would hear it again. This is absolutely perfect!
I did base an entire villain, his backstory, his goals, his plot, motivations, even his death on Blue Oyster Cult references.
You are the DM I wish I could have
@@madmohawk6560 Joseph Crawford, A Fearless cult leader of the Reaper god, Sole Survivor of a Psychic war, sought to build a Stairway to the Stars by summoning Godzilla on the Harvest Moon to set Cities Aflame... with a magic cowbell.
I have punished a murderhobo party twice. Once my party had captured what they were sure we a spy and brought her onto their airship. Then tried to torture her for information.
The barbarian broke her legs and one of my NPC's talked him into throwing her overboard. The NPC they captured was an angel. So she spread her wings and flew away. All the barbarian could say was "Oh shit." This has consequences down the line.
The second time was a little different. Very different. The party entered a house that looked like it had been ransacked. Inside was this creature. A horrid looking thing. Far from humanoid, but out appeared non-hostile, then the rogue said it was hideous and didn't deserve to live, so he attacked it. They had nearly killed it, but the paladin realized it was only targeting the rogue and despite being unable to talk, it could understand.
So the paladin talked it out of its rage and they learned that a woman named Nina and her daughter lived in the house. After a few minutes it sunk in. The rogue started yelling at me and calling me a sick bastard. Well.... I haven't been able to get him back to my table since.

ahhh I disagree with this statement so hard.
Y'all are crazy, toby McGuire spider man was told that by Willem Defoe as green goblin
I am very much a Noob in D&D so when i joined a party they were not taking things seriously at all and our DM was gift wrapping victories for us. Anyway our group went full murder hobo, our group had a odd quirk i was the only one looting anything. If a member of the party asked for something i would just give it to them. well after a slaughter of entire trading town I was going around looting everything. When i was done looting i skipped town taking all the gold and silver of the party. I was playing a centaur fighter so i carried away an insane amount of loot right before a massive battle where most of the party perished.
ahhhh the second i heard the song i knew... old camp song. and i am soooo using it in dnd now
Oh boy. I've watched this channel for a while. It's sad when I hear stories of people just being crazy.
@ajs1031 true. I want to play but I have no idea how to start. Especially with the character sheet.
@ajs1031 okay then. I'll remember that, thanks!
@ajs1031 okay I will, thanks for the help^^
@@sedrickshadden9196 you can also find a PDF of almost all the books online for free. I would recomend this if you are not sure the game is for you because you can easly spent a lot of money on just the books. so read it over from that PDF and than buy it either online at DNDbeyond or a real copy at your bookstore.
@ajs1031 This only happens when the DM fails in their duties to reign in such behaviour. This DM failed to use the rules and mechanics available to them from the edition they were using that were set in place to discourage this behaviour. There are also other in game solutions to these problems that a DM has at their disposal as well, but it is up to the DM to use them.
Otherwise, crazy things like this can happen.
OH SH!T He rolled a nat 1 on his singing check.
I did Hotel Callifornia as a sidequest/traveling encounter
Hotel Kalief Ornia was a demons prison.
It had the hostess with a bell; included the ghosts dancing to remember or forget; beast that could not be killed with steely knifes and welcoming voices telling you you can never leave.
@Natasel sorry but no. It's about the lifestyles of the people in 70's california (paridisal coast state where people escape reality with clubmusic and recreational drugs)
It is interesting to see in the comments how a slight difference in generation or culture can make or break the impact. For some it was moving. For some it should be burned in a pyre made of all you love.
I would burn it. Idk this song. I still don't really get the references and would still be a murderhobo.
I had to look it up, the song was One Tin Soldier.
Absolutely LOVE the use of one of my favorite songs as a means of teaching the party a moral lesson. Way better done than my story arc of the party hunting a bounty on goblin heads only to discover goblins that were pushed into inhospitable lands and isolated from any productive interaction with society, that now were starving and raided as a means of survival, all while worshiping a known neutrally aligned god.
What song is op referencing? I’ve never heard of it?
One Tin Soldier, written by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter.
@@Nimelennar thank you so much!
Your voice is like butter. Your signing voice is like nails on a chalkboard. Love the stories, but could do without the jingle (even with this story directly being about the song)
We heard that song all the time in the private school I went to, and I remembered the whole thing as soon as I heard the first two lines. That pretty much spoiled the rest of the story for me.
I did find it a mite suspicious when you skipped a verse, but remembering what it was, I figured it would've contradicted the story.
The singing, my god I need a wish spell to remove it from my memory. Simon would have a blast ripping that pitchy mess to shreds.
As a player, I talked with the DM and brought in a lawful evil warlock/assassin to moderate our party of mostly good aligned and well-meaning but fairly oblivious murderhobos. It worked. He actually negotiated our way out of a lot of conflicts the party would have launched themselves into headlong. And when he did kill, he hid the evidence in ways that made the party really uncomfortable with what they’d just done.
He killed another assassin and impersonated the assassin for a bit, then later recruited the party’s ranger into dismembering the corpse and removing any identifiable parts, and got the entire party to distribute it in multiple locations across the city. As far as anyone else was concerned, that NPC walked out of the bar into the night and was never seen again. The other characters were surprisingly competent at disposing of their “packages” but it never happened again. And they never let him take a watch alone afterwards, either.
Am I the only one thinking of Todd In The Shadows' review of the original song when I listen to this?
The moment he started singing, I knew where this story was going...
I... don't think I've ever heard that song.
I think some greater context would have been good to share. Many of us never heard the song before and don’t even know what song you’re referring to. Therefore, a great deal of the impact of the story is lost on us. Regardless, from what I understood, seems like a very cool and dramatic way to make players more conscious of their actions.
Fun fact: the song that Inspired this story is called 'One Tin Solider' from 1969.
My party was supposed to save a Bronze dragon from having her soul removed and used to power a weapon that would rip the barrier between the material plane, the Feywild and the Shadowfell. They were supposed to go infiltrate a cult to locate where the ritual site was.
They murdered their way into the cult meeting, one of got mind blanked, one got dominated and the dragon had her soul ripped out and out into a war forged weapon... which then ate one of the kobolds (who in another interrupted ritual, absorbed a blue dragon soul shard).
this was quite a thing and i liked the musical accumpanyment you had in it. made me look up a song (thankfuly you had it in discription)
Great narration over such a good Reddit tale. Great job as always!
Me: recognizes song instantly, hits 'Like', waits for player realization.....
....waiting....really?.....
I have a DM that pretty much gives karma to a murderhobo, making sure they pay for that person's actions. Sometimes he doesn't on one on one sessions, or the party is running an evil campaign, but generally, he punishes the player pretty badly. He mentioned once of a time where he volunteered at a dnd convention, and someone tried to be a murderhobo with him, and he obliterated the player, by always having the enemies target him first, anything bad happening ended up on this player's character, to the point where they ran off crying.
Not to deal with murderhobos, but I did make (and have run several times with different groups) a one shot side quest mini campaign based on the song 'Hotel California' by the Eagles.
i have legit only heard that song once before in my life, a class in a school play did it one year. never heard it since, so i was surprised to see it pop up here.
always kinda figured one of the teachers had come up with it or something.
To All. I'm actually old enough to remember when this song first hit the airwaves. I vaguely remember both my Mom and myself tearing up. Time lines are kind of convoluted now. I don't remember if I read "The Hobbit" just before, or just after the release of the song. But the 2 together solidified my interest in fantasy. If any of you wish to here other music from that era, Google "Billy Jack" . You'll find a song, play it. Going to do that next.
The song I was thinking of is "One Tin Soldier" . It's the extended version, probably the original. Worth the listen. Other songs that are worth a listen for a fantasy game. "The Wizard", " War Pigs"( think orcs) by BLACK SABBATH. Metallica, Master of Puppets. A Necromancer Mindflayer that can control the living and the undead. Call of Ctuulu (sp?) , No explanation necessary. Creeping Death, the vengeance of a god. Iron Maiden, Rhrym of the Ancient Mariner. I could go on, but it's getting so late that it's now Early. Good morning and good night. Peace.
Never heard that song before and I really could have done without hearing that warbling.
Why didn't they read the note for themselves in the first place? wow.
They didn't know it existed.
@@TheSpencermacdougall Not true, the guy showed it as a crumpled piece of paper saying "They told us to piss off!" 3:31
They trusted the king?
CreeperOnYourHouse Story sounded like there were two different letters.
Love that song. Normally I cringe when a DM plays something from pop culture out in a campaign, but this was perfectly done. DM made it obvious what they were doing and let the players do as they will. Whether they completed the song or not was left entirely to their own choices.
What is song?
@@IchiroFuma One Tin Soldier. (According to many others in different parts of the comment section.) - hope that answered it. Google the lines, or large parts of the song, when in doubt. :)
Did you like the singing part? Let us know what you think in the comments section below 😳
To be sincere, i think it would be better just added at the end. This "quotes" style works greatly as a writing, but kind of breaks the immersion amidst the narration
Well, it didn't sound too much like nails on a chalkboard.
The singing is really distracting and makes it hard to understand. I even jumped when it first happened cause it startled me. Listen to you while doing other stuff so I don't read along. Also the music you used sounds awful and distorted.
The singing might have been a good idea as a separate style of video instead of breaking the narrative cognition.
Never sing again
A mirror is a powerful tool when one looks within
you either die a hero or live long enough to become the villain
Anyone else completley lost? Can someone explain? I usually love his vids but on this one I'm absolutely lost after the "Peace on Earth" part
Basically the “treasure” that the valley people wanted for themselves was not gold, but peace on earth. And the valley people attacked even after the mountain people said they would be willing to share with them. So the players had to face the fact that they had been aligned with the bad guys once they saw the treasure.
Ignore all the people of the valley telling you that you don’t sing good, you sing great
I'm a little confused on one part:
"Came an answer from the kingdom:
With our brothers we will share"
Were they calling the valley people their brothers and saying they would share with them, or saying the valley people weren't their brothers and thus they wouldn't share with them? I'm asking this because the next line is how the valley people cried with anger, and I'm not entirely sure why given that if it was the former should they have cried with joy?
I always interpreted it as the valley people not wanting to SHARE the treasure...they wanted it ALL, so they attacked and killed only to find out the "treasure" wasn't what they believed it to be. (But that's where the fable stumbles a bit...the mountain folk could have avoided this if they'd just SAID "Look, you've got it all wrong...our treasure isn't gold or jewels..." But NOOOO, they have to go all David-Carradine-in-Kung-Fu and look what it got them!)
Am now visualizing the Cleric turning to the fighter and asking "Are we the baddies?"
If you're going to be a murderhobo and bloody conqueror, you might as well just embrace it. Take that Mountain King's crown and throne, depose the Valley King as the villain (fall guy) and go on to usurp his valley kingdom into your own. From there is only a short step to empire and dominion and REALLY going down in history.
So, is the song based off an existing song? I do not recognize it.
I wasn't the Murder happy one well me and the Paladin weren't but the other two members were. so we were investigating a Prison who's Warden wasn't in at the time so after a short shopping session (with threats of violence) we found his residence and asked him about why he wasn't in his own Prison looking over his workers. And that's when the Genasi said: i roll for initiative. D.M: uhh why. Genasi: so we can see what we're up against later on. After Rolling his Dice and the D.M his own The Warden Put him in a Magic Hold and threatened his life after our Genasi Rolled low on his Attack and that's when the campaign ended because the Genasi thought that it wasn't fair for him to get punished for almost blasting a Prison Warden. We then left an hour later and never got together after that. And now in our new group I'll occasionally say "don't attack the Prison Warden" when another member wants to start combat
There are easier ways to find out what your up against then to pick a fight with them, like asking around, investigating the prison, investigating his residence when he isn't there, or watching him, never pick a fight with someone unless you have to.
Proof that some folks can't carry a tune in a bucket. Still, props for doing it.
I actually used The Humbling River by Puscifer as the basis for one of my most loved characters backstory.
Why can't Netflix ever pick up on this and turn this into a series?! Imagine if someone would create an outer limits Style episode of theweek D&D story?!
And they could give the gray necromancer his own show!
I can already imagine it! The show would be titled, “The Gray”.
Wow, nothing like pulling at the heart of something close to the players in such a real world fashion. They'll never forget that one.
I'm surprised such murderhoboes don't get a realm on the Demiplane of Fear...
@ All Things DnD
Hey, where can i get a complete version of the song? I don't know why - but i love the voice.
But when you not release your version - that is fine too. Thanks for your work. I'm from germany and until now i didn't know this song. So - thanks for this experience.
*wai-wait*

Great story. Gonna try this
Finally looked up the song "tin solder", can safely say I've never heard of it ever. Not bad but rather sad.
that time when a fifth level party beat the crap out of a lich because of my dumb luck. I was playing a wild magic sorcerer in this campaign, and when the DM got board of it he decided rather than talking about it he would just TPK the whole party. Long story short he threw a lich at us in order to murder us dead, but I happened to beat its initiative order and the DM wasn't concerned about it dying because we didn't have magical weapons so when I went to cast my fire ball spell activating an antimagic field we decided to have the barbarian hold the lich down while everyone else smashed the entire dungeon to bits till I realized I had the locate objects spell as I then proceeded to look for the liches phalactary when the DM said I couldn't find it I checked for the places the locate object spell couldn't find till I found a lead room which when we entered it we proceeded to toss it into the plane of fire which I had opened a one way portal to when I casted locate object a second time to find lead. Yeah the lich disintegrated in the barbarians strangle hold without ever breaking out of it because the 5th level goliath bear totem barbarian with the grappler and tavern brawler feats wasn't going to budge.
Man I‘ve got to say I really enjoyed your singing. In fact I enjoyed it so much I even wrote this comment to tell you you are doing a great job :)
Currently building a campaign around Unleash the Archers whole album Apex.
What's the name of the song?
Thought the singing was fine, and an inspired touch.
The singing was so bad I had to mute and just read the subtitles
I'm a firm believer in letting the PCs find their pictures on wanted posters.
Sorry, but whoever was caterwauling "one Tin Soldier" snippets... Please never sing again.
I'm currently working on a campaign based on "Seven Seas of Rhye" by Queen
Stahp singing! Place a link for "fire coming out of the monkeys head" by the Gorillaz to sum it up ; )
*Edit* oh sh1t, nevermind, this is freaking epic!
What is this song looks /sound like when it’s all put together?
I have a cleric/Druid name Jonathan Crowley based off the Ozzy Osbourne song
I am actually getting ready to run a mini campaign in the setting that Drink with the Living Dead, takes place in by Ghoul Town.
O man I wish I knew what song this was. Loved the store too. It pulled at me a bit. :3
Basing a campaign session on a song and using it to correct their murderous tendencies... creative.
By the skull throne of khorne. PLEASE STOP SINGING!!!!
Four scarred heroes ride away.
You should see the video called out murderhobo the murferhobos
interesting story, but the singing absolutely ruined it for me.
big same. I feel the same effect could've been achieved if he'd just read it normally.
Eh it wasnt that bad
I believe the proper clinical term is murderhobotomy.
"Go ahead and hate your neighbor, go ahead and hate a friend... do it in the name of Heaven, you can justify it in the end...."
🎵So go ahead and hate your neighbor,
Go ahead and cheat a friend.
Do it in the name of heaven.
You can justify it in the end.
There won't be any trumpets blowing,
Come the judgement day.
On the bloody morning after,
One tin soldier rides away.🎵
What is this song
I want the full thing
So I see a ton of comments that say you should have named the song and yet none of them named the song. What song is this referencing?
