D&D Story: A new campaign arc begins! The race for the Covenant

- Hi everyone! This is video takes place after the video "My Players Lose the Final Battle." I ret-con the ending of the video and the players return back to the world, reprising their old characters and returning to the story where we left off. This time, they're chasing down the Covenant and trying to restore balance to the multiverse.
End song from the UA-cam Audio Library: "Bleeker Street Blues" by Chris Haugen
"YOU LOST THE MOURNEBLADE??"
*Muffled Voice* "I warned you!"
"Shut up sword of warning
@@allison8836 I warned myself!!!!!!!!
Hilarious
Bitey is such a good spider friend, keeping the neighborhood children warm like that.
Bitey is now literally my favourite character from anything ever.
*muffled* aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I mean, playing Malakar's advocate here, a children's sandbox is about the last place most villains would think to look.
Your not wrong...
are you kidding it the first place the minions look mostly to play and kick a baby or two
Unless the villain is a child... O___o
Like, remember this one? ua-cam.com/video/bfCR0dEDO1A/v-deo.html
Also this is one of those "this artifact is just as dangerous in the hands of someone who has no idea what they are doing as it is in the hands of an actual villain"
Also, not only is this somewhere where children commonly play, but the way most children use sandboxes is to DIG into them, at least a little bit. Like, at lease hide it underneath the slide or something, where kids aren't actively trying to stumble upon it.
@@martindevoto1674 See, pedophyles would be a notable exception, but then that would be neatly taken care of by the children having access to a magical weapon that Infinity Wars a person's soul out of existence.
Team name: Turtle F***ers
Mobile Suit Gundam Wing leaves and Solid Snake joins with Metal Gear Solid Rex.
Team Name: Turtle Friends
Coincidence? I think not!
The gundam wing f****d oogway!
I'm ashamed to admit it took me a second to get that joke
*Metal Gear?*
Wait...Snake is in smash...the turtle friends are part of the puffin forest channel...
PUFFIN FOREST FOR SMASH!
So, I’m surprised that they didn’t have to make persuasion rolls everytime they told someone their group’s name, to make sure they didn’t get thrown out of guilds.
Try having to roll dice to figure out if some drunk peasants can remember your names and the name of the group.
I was in a campaign where we had to get some street cred for the next quest hook, but it seems everyone that witnessed us was either drunk, sick, or not all mentally there.
Due to crap rolls, there must have been five groups of people doing all those things we were sent to do. Before we could do it. And sounded way more badass than us. Yes, there were only five quests. The campaign was literally dead in the water. We had to sit down and do an out of table meeting to discuss on how to revive the campaign or whether we should just start a new one.
We decided to keep going and have the guy that was supposed to find us show up searching for the five groups. Because of their exaggerated badassery the guy wanted to recruit all five groups.
Then we spent a whole session trying to convince the guy that those five groups was really us.
It didn't work. The DM was grasping at straws and pulled this gem out of his behind: "You guys must have killed at least three bandit troupes in order to have THAT much evidence. You guys might be able to help me out. We can put the whole lying thing behind us."
We didn't have a charisma class. This is why I mostly roll Bards now.
TheMystogrigen That sounds like a huge mistake on your DMs part.
Locking main content behind dice rolls is a terrible idea.
@@8ACCraftworks I roll a nat 20 to stop a giant rock and didn't stop it. Nat 20 does not always equal success, some things are impossible.
@@xp1446 Sounds like an EA inspired bad idea lol
@@TheMystogrigen
Wait. Your DM was calling for CHA checks from the PCs to see whether _his_ NPCs would allow the plot to progress?
Why?
“You know I have never been tortured, this could be fun”
“See that’s what I’m talking about, positive attitude”
50 shades of grey in two sentences
No, its where Ocelot tortures Solid Snake in MGS1
Kinky
We NEED to know how they got the group name of turtle fckers
Probably can't though need to be UA-cam friendly
Same.
We all know Ben will never tell it. From the stories we have heard I’m putting this all on Michelle the Gnome Monk and just assuming something hilariously stupid happened with poor uguay!
Don't you mean the turtle friends :P
Oogway was very persuasive.
Gm: "You are all dispersed throughout the multiverse !"
Players: "Great ! Let's do another campaign together !"
Gm: "Oh boy. Let me fetch my over-used tropes book..."
The trick is use overdone tropes, and then blow their minds by exploiting some minor detail they missed that changes everything.
Or lean into it so hard it can only be cunning satire.
Still gonna need a backstory to the group name...
we might get it, but as he said, he wont animate it.... maybe.
... he doesn’t have to animate it, per se...
I mean... isn't it kinda obvious?
Well in their campaign there was this character called oogway...
.... poor poor oogway
@@mallechai1841 My God! What did they do to poor oogway? Wait. I take that back. I'd rather not know.
Legends say, that the Fighter is still paralyzed, waiting to be freed
The covenant can only be returned by the combined power of abserd the amazing and Wallace the hero of parnast
Best plot idea ever
You forgot to mention Chadwick Strongpants.
Part: Well I guess it lost forever then, bye.
Add Sips and make Zee the Wizard basically the Gandalf of the group
That much power in one place might actually tear the multiverse apart.
Oh God! Is the fighter character still standing in Malakath's castle paralyzed?!!!! Lol!!
Yep
no, his skeleton is standing there, he died after a few days with no water
Nah, when the paralyze wore off, he tried to get out of the dungeon... but then knocked over a medusa, accidentally groping a boob anime-style, and was forced to marry her (or turned to stone, her dad was really particular about the marry or garden ornament thing)...
@@SeedlingNL reminds of seto no hanayome but with more ecchi and no Yakuza, would watch it
I think the paralysis has perfectly preserved him, still alive, forever.
"Mum I got excluded from stealing my teachers soul"
"Damit Jimmy go to your room"
"But muuum"
"I don't wanna hear your sass Jimmy"
Not excluded, expelled.
Samuel Kerby lol
Martin Meers no no. I’m sure he meant excluded. Everyone except him was allowed to steal his teacher’s soul. Jimmy failed to steal it. Probably rolled a nat. 1 or something
@Kathy Kat pattato tomato
@@mmeers89 its D n D losing your soul is like a stubbed toe
"Which only took, like an hour or so of gametime, because bad planning on my part"
I love that line. No matter how experienced you'll get, you'll still underestimate or overestimate your encounters :D
My patience wears thin, Benjamin.
An explanation is required.
The story must be told.
Agreed
It doesnt have to be animated even
@@ZyroShadowPony i think his channel could get deleted if it was animated.
I really think the standard explanation for this channel is sufficient: Ben's players wanted to do something and he let them. What else do you need to know?
@@nickwilliams8302 oh, Ya'know, nothing special, just something to the tune of-WHY ARE THEY CALLED THE TURTLE FUCKERS?!!?!?
“2:00 EST why am I still up?”
*Sees Puffin forest uploads*
“I am now completely justified staying up so late.”
Yup
Michael Zelaski you definitely made everyone who saw this go to 2:00
"Mommy, mommy! Look this cool sword if find in the sand box! Let's play like i am a adventurer and you is a dragon"
"Ok son, a sword found in a sandbox can't be dangerous."
That kid will grow up to never pick up a sword ever again
@@richardpike8748 Or to hunt down whoever was responsible...
@@richardpike8748 or to become the next big bad
A child watches in confused fascination as a disheveled gnome, tripping balls, digs a hole in the palyground's sandbox. "If the evil of Malikar ever rises again, you'll need this!" the gnome shouts at the hole, plunging a spooky sword into it, and hastily tossing sand over it. "M-mooooom...?" the child calls out, concerned. The mother rushes over, ushering the child away; "Don't stare, dear, that's the... great... hero... who saved the world..."
Hooray. All Hail The Glorious -Turtlef*ckers!- Turtle Friends! 🌝👌
~~with benefits~~
Is it just me, or has the mandela effect taken control again, because i'm sure that the group is called Turtlef.....
🐢
👉👌🐢
@@lokegerhardsson8979 why is it not possible to give your comment the 1.7 million thumbs up it rightfully deserves?!!
Letting the players loose in the realm the writes the rules of reality sounds like a terrible idea. I can't wait to see what happens next.
“I WARNED YOU!!!!”
He Is Purposely Building Hype For That Group Name!
Well Played!
Me: its 2am I'm going to sleep
Ben: imma just put this here
Seems about right for us
Yeah it 11pm at night, which isn't too bad but still really late in my book.
Same here
It’s 1 am for me. Sleep is for the weak!!
Right? Good timing Benny
Angel. You are the Turtle-
Player. FRIENDS, TURTLE FRIENDS
Three things: first, that's totally Wallace, Hero of Parnast at 4:42.
Second, you've got a lot of gumption, bringing up the Turtle F*ckers without giving the backstory behind their name.
Third, what happened to that one fighter that was paralyzed and left behind after the ill-fated fight with Malikar?
Aye!!
Bucket Hat Trick for the 3rd, he died after a few days of no food or water and then the scavenger critters ate his body so he’s just a skeleton now... or he escaped somehow and ben hasn’t figured that part out yet
I think he mentions the backstory of their name in one of the other malikar vids but im not sure
I think he mentions the backstory of their name in one of the other malikar vids but im not sure
Who? I've only heard of the Turtle Friends
"Let me clarify, you buried the soul-rending artifact in a child's sandbox? And now some kid might end up accidentally destroying another kids' soul?!"
"Yeah I was high out of my mind on shrooms"
Hahahaha, your brother's hilarious, ben
"Only surviving member."
The Fighter: "Rude."
The child looked like Wallace. I guess with a stolen soul he becomes Abserd
1. What happened to the fighter?
2. Why did the monk not get a cleric to use divination to see if every was actually dead! And for.....the mournblade....
" G... guys ? A little help here ? " 8/
“I thought I heard d something, but it must have been the sighing of the breeze.”
Answers pleaaase!!
Instead of kidnapping .. M-Mobile suit gundam wing "I TOLD YOU ITS A LEGAL CHARACTER" he capture Solid snake
Kidnapper:"Kept you waiting huh"
Snake:"That's my line !!!"
MGSREX: "Woof"
Sorcerer: "I wonder what being tortured feels like"
Snake: "... I will not tell you the pain its just like death"
Sorcerer: "You were tortured before ???"
Snake: "Shadow moses island was captured by Ocelot here and i was zapped LITTERALY so i wont even tell you anything"
Kidnapper: "... Right *sigh* i will then torture your friends"
Snake: "Your next line is 'I will then get you out' and you will get us out"
Kidnapper: "I will then get you out"
*Kidnapper has got the group out of this universe*
Kidnapper realizing he screwed up: "OH FOR FU *BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP* SAKE !!!"
Yeah, the reunion could’ve been better, like them all meeting up somewhere in the Outlands after finding their own way their since all the Outer Planes have gates that lead there.
the Monk could’ve just heard from some passing planewalker that their old party was still alive and then probably go to Oogway to get a gate spell, but turns out the only place close enough to the Outer Planes he can take them is the Outlands. Then, the whole group meets up somewhere, like possibly a gate town or some other place they felt “compelled” to go to.
The explanation for the Mecha PC not being there is that he was just having too much fun fighting in Ysgard since it really is a warriors paradise b/c everyone gets revved at the end of the day. While the Solid Snake rip off* could’ve been said Planewalker the Monk ran into or also felt “compelled” to go to the same place.
To top it all off, have them get attacked by Devils and after a big fight, have an especially cowardly one surrender and tell the PCs the whole Covenant thing after they interrogate it.
*(I really shouldn’t be judging too much, I made 4 characters that are pretty much copies of team RWBY)
Or have each of them be visited by powerful being, asking them to come of Sigil, the City of Doors to aid in the endeavor of recovering the Covenant.
The 2:20 scene about torturing is so relateable as a player "i've never been tortured before. This could be fun!"
"I thought it seem like a good idea at the time. Then again I was high out of my mind on shrooms sooooo... a lot of things seem like good ideas at the time" I lost it xDDD
I like how this first set of comments are split between:
1)Wondering about the origin of the original group name
2)That upload time tho...
Is that metal gear Rex a modded old artificer companion? How did I never think of this.
Artificer never forgives, artificer never forgets.
The Ordus Factorum sounds like where rules lawyers go when they die.
Just got back from school, lied down and opened UA-cam to see this.
My day is made
"They looked really cold! Now they're nice & warm!"
*muffled screaming*
XD
It's so much funnier when you think about how Bitey looks to everyone other than the monk
@@sketch3744
*HISSSSS* "Oh look at those kids, they look really cold!"
_The kids notice a large shadow being cast over them..._
*HISSSSSSS* "Hey kiddos! I'm here to wrap you up in some nice blankets I've made for you, so you can stay nice and warm!"
_The kids leap up, trying to get ready to run..._
*HISSSSSS* "Oh no, judging by how eager you are you must be even colder than I thought! Here, let me help you!"
@@Gormathius The fuckin "HISSSSS" and spider bile getting spat everywhere. too much man, too much 🤣
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU LOST THE MOURNBLADE?!"
so what happened to the fighter's Drow Elf companion? did she (assuming she) stay in the Beastlands? or is she just offscreen?
admittedly, kind of hoped those two would end up being the Adam and Eve of that world :P
You can't tell with elves. Probably Adam and Steve.
@@RedshiftButterfly i mean it's like a 50/50 chance right? :P
@@TamTroll Ah, but Drows are highly matriarchal, and very racist. Deciding to rub elbows with another race is pretty drastic. A male is more likely to want to escape. Although there could be other reasons. I'd give it 80/20. :P
DID YOU ASSUME HER GENDER!
wait i did to all is well
@@deldotpng9833 nice dead meme dumbass
I remember watching puffin forest when he only had 50K subs. look how far he has come
Your Profile Picture Is A Map Of Luxembourg, Right? Not Wisconsin?
Ordus Factorum- "Okay so Firebolt will be 120 ft in range."
Lore Mastery- (Kicks down the door) "Not if I have a lvl 2 spell slot and anything to say about it!"
Ordus Factorum- "Lore Mastery please nuuu!"
Lore Mastery- (Leans in) "Then I'm going to Misty Step and Thunder step out of here."
Ordus Factorum- "But that's only 120 ft.."
Lore Mastery- "Not the way I do it. 2 miles." (Leans away slowly)
Stripey Bag The Ordus Factorum believed they thought of everything, that they were in control. Then everything changed, when the Bards attacked and bent the rules of reality to their will.
@@bigbadbob7070 Decent meme but sorry you failed this Arcana check. I wasn't talking about the College of Lore I was talking about the Unearthed Arcana School of Lore Mastery for Wizard. You'll get it right next time though because part of your first ability at LVL 2 is Lore Mastery which makes it so you get double proficiency in all Intelligence checks but Investigation just for going into them and your initiative is modified by Intelligence instead of Dex. This is your most mundane ability btw. To sum up you later become a living wish spell that throws Radiant Fireballs from a mile away and those Succubi better pump some iron because the check they have to make is a Strength check.
Stripey Bag yeah I’ve read about that, as if Wizards couldn’t brake the game over their knee enough already.
Upon reflection I realize I was wrong about Bards. They don’t bend the rules of reality, they just swipe the spells from the people that actually do while being amazing at everything.
Guess I'll delay sleep just a little longer. Weird upload schedule haha
Just wanted to tell you that your videos are what made me want to play D&D. All your videos make me so happy to watch. Thank you for adding a little more joy to the world.
Lol
Turtle Friends... Sounds like a Super Hero team of oddly familiar ninjas :)
And Turtle F*ckers would work for the name of a villain group who opposes them.
Can’t wait for more harrowing and hilarious adventures from the turtle F... Friends.
Sam Hill turtle Fuckers dude call them by their true name...
I was kinda hoping the the sequel was gonna be like the hero's spent years training in their dimensions and return back when malakar returns and then they meet the monks son and join together stop malakar again.
i wait with baited breath for another one of your videos......they are the best part of any day.....keep up the great work...you make alot of people happy and laugh.......hell im depressed all the time if it wasnt for you i might not ever smile.....so thank you.
Otacon! I'm trying to sneak out of hell, but I'm dummy thicc!
And the clap of metal gear rex keeps alerting the Nalfeshnee
@@ENTProductions the Return of Zalkin!
I know it takes a while for you to make theses so thanks man for goin hard and giving me awesome D&D stories to watch :D
So...
Metal Elder Gear Scroll V: Sons of Oblivion
I strongly identify with the player of MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM WING, and SOLID SNAKE and his pet construct METAL GEAR REX.
Yes
>1hour ago.
>That feeling when it is 3am.
Is this what people do when they don't sleep? Post videos and watch videos?
Yes.
Thank you for these videos ur one of my favorites been on here since the beginning of UA-cam
Ngl i kinda want to see Abserd, Sips, and Zee the wizard from the Animated Spellbook all go on a campaign together
That would be amusing!!
There would be great daaaaanger.
I can see Sips getting very annoyed with Abserd and want to kill him 24/7.
@@Kylesico912x Sneeze would have to jump in to stop him all the time!
Killing it with these episodes! I watch you every single time you show up. Great job
Wtf I was almost asleep then you post a dam video and I got to staybup a bit later and be tired for work tomorrow...........well thank you I needed a funny just thank you.
Coming up with stuff like this for explanation sounds fun as hell, difficult but also fun
Ok, seriously, we need some backstory on how they got the name.
Fun story to listen to. I’ve always loved storytellers and enjoy learning from others’ experiences. Good job Ben!
Your Mobile Gundam Suit friend should’ve changed to Master Chief.
This would’ve been soooo perfect
SS Man I need a weapon.
What would his companion be? Cortana? The Arbiter?
@@adwitatherealadwita Winston. Because Master Chief is already Tracer. Duh! lol
"Master Chief...what are you doing on that ship?"
"Sir, finishing this fight."
3:26 ooh, an interesting adventure idea could be a BBEG going to Ordus Factorum and changing the rules of the universe to that of an older edition and/or homebrewing their own ideas of "balance" upon the world.
The (more than just friends) "Turtle Friends".
The Turtle Friends With Benefits
Man I feel your pain on thinking of better plot ideas after a session. I had a group who used a wish in the dumbest way possible and I was super lenient in only having them strewn across the 'nice' planes, to get them back together i went with the whole "Angels summoned you together and bound you to do their quest as payment" thing. Halfway through the session I was eating pizza and started thinking I should have had them all find random doors to sigil as I've always wanted to have a party explore their. It didn't help that the angels were incredibly boring, the evil party members just stayed quiet while the LG paladin charmed his way out of the Geas with two nat 20's.
Ok, that was hilarious and all but
WHY WERE THEY CALLED THE TURTLE FUC%$RS?!?!?!
As someone born in a surfing capital of Australia and never got to enjoy such things as VTM and DnD.
So I gotta say thanks for these.
How did they get out of HELL in ONE hour???? It took us SEVEN hours just to get out of the prison in Out Of The Abyss!!
They befriended Kratos.
“So instead of capturing... Mobile Suit Gundam Wing? He captures... Solid Snake and his head construct... Metal Gear Solid Rex?” Best sentence I’ve ever heard. Ever.
1:00 AM notification squad *yawn*

Ooh, giving an additional background in lieu of downtime is inspired! I love it! :D
If I ever do a sequel campaign after a long timeskip, I'm totally stealing that. It's genius!
In fairness, they are very friendly towards turtles. Upsettingly friendly.
"Hello, guys? I'm still here... Help?"
"I warned yoooouuuuuu!"
Thought for sure the monk was gonna have sold the Mourneblade to buy booze. XD

There's 21 views and 15 comments. That's some good engagement
Wakes up at 2:30 am, head phones are on and random video playing. Looks over on side bar and new Puffin Forest video is there. "The gods have awake me for my quest to begin"
I shall made the best group name “The tortoise licker”
The trip around the planes is an awesome story. Mechanus, Baator and Celestia
Ooh i start my very first dnd game on sunday. Wish me luck!
I just watched all your vids man. And I haven’t laughed like that in ages. Thank you.
_I thought it was a good idea at that time_
*Flashback to all my life decisions*
Honestly, it's a dangerous world, good on the monk for giving them a protective weapon!
Imagine if the mobile suit gundam character was the one to kidnap everyone for revenge for sending him to (what i imagine) some kind of hell
I love your videos. I wish I was as great of a DM as you are. I'm trying my best, but I still kinda suck at this. You're a huge inspiration to me.
Love how that dude was high as balls on shrooms. I made a catfolk druid that worshiped natural drugs but the DM of that game took a shit on us.
I dont dnd at all but I love the stories from your games. The animation is a hilarious too. The timing of the eyes are spot on lol
In my Dnd group we were called
The Unlucky Bastards
Meanwhile in the UK, "Why look! Tis a most exciting new Puffin Forest video that I can enjoy with my morning tea and crumpets!"

Wait the entire halo covenant faction is stolen?
"It is a scroll forged..."

Ben... you know this isn't what we want. C'mon. Does it have to do with Ugway (I can't spell).
I always look forward to the winner-take-all clash between stupidity and chaos that occurs between the players in these stories.
We still demand to hear the story of how they got the Name of "The Turtule fu**ers"!
Keep us updated this campaign. It would be fun to know what happens.
Also, glad your brother's playing again.
Good thing I don’t sleep
Your animations are looking better and better keep up the great work!
I thought that he passed down the Mourneblade to through the generations to vanquish Malilar if he ever came back.
moe channels he changed some of the plot
Ok
Nothing better then waking up from crappy childhood flashback dreams and seeing a new Puffin Forrest video to brighten ones day.
