aawww yeaaah
this is the good stuff
Your vocals in this are incredible!
Fantastic work as always
I knew I recognized that voice! Beautifully done as always.
You have such an amazing voice
I know that voice! 🤣👍
Thanks, I am now physically unable to stop myself from pledging to this kickstarter
Yooo it’s slimecicle!
My guy you're actually here ....nice
Da fuq you doin ere?!? Guess the dnd community is bigger than I imagined.
@@signedzulu7637 It's huge
@@signedzulu7637 he has a dnd podcast actually
I was DM for a game once where I created a an underwater tavern called the “Drowned Mans Drink” it was a sunken pirate ship converted into a bar by its undead crew trying to raise money for a new ship.
That’s extremely creative
...... Excuse me but if possible would you mind writing an entire book about it and then posting the link so I can buy it? Seriously that is quite possibly the single most interesting premise I have heard in the past half a year and now seriously seriously would love to read about the stories of this undead crew.
@@anarchyandempires5452 yes
That’s really cool!
That’s cool give yourself a pat on the back
Couldn't have asked for more from you, a sincere thank you from the whole team and from myself. This is beautiful!
Good job on the lyrics :D
Damn right it is.
You did a great job on this too! I really want this book now
Well that got funded fast
I would love to back it, but I have no credit card... :(
The little goblin train attendant demanding payment was so cute
*I would give them all my gold*
She looked like an Animal Crossing character!
THANK YOU! Not the only one!
I wouldn't care if they stabbed me in the leg because I was a stowaway, they are that adorable....
Alright maybe I would mind a little, but look at them!!!
They were my favorite!
_The tavern proceeded to burn down, due to the Bard distracting everyone from the fire that started when the lantern fell. Poor Larry was forced to sell his family heirloom and his last memory of his mother in order to rebuild the tavern. Everyone inside died, burning to death while enthralled by the Bard's singing._
This realistic approach lmao 😂
Na, there's a blight on the area that dampers enthusiasm, even from "non-living" entities, like the fire. So it died out after burning for a few minutes in that one spot. Now there's just an ashy hole in the floor.
This is why True Bards are strictly regulated by the kingdom!
I like to think the bard was an assassin now who wanted to kill his target in the tavern and make it look like an accident. Since she is Tiefling she can survive the fire long enough to escape with her life.
Well, the Bard IS a Tiefling, so...

D&D is another music genre now
Yeah
Ya
I fail to see the downsides
DND is moreso Celtic, which is already a genre in and of itself. If you fancy this style, then perhaps look it up, and see what you find!
And a good genre at that
Clicked on the link. "Funded in 25 minutes!"
D&D players really love their taverns.
its more like T,D&D
Or the oposite D&D players hate their taverns, this is perfect to fix that
No we don’t, hence why it reached its goal so fast.
We need somewhere to start, don't we?
D&D players are surprisingly fast at reaching funding goals... it's almost scary.

Don't pay bards in advance
@@aubreyackermann8432 you cant they probably seduce you into paying extra
She used illusions to show them her memories
I'd pay her to diss other bars and promote my own, who's to say that she wasn't payed off by the other taverns to b***h about their competition and drive the customers to travel to the better taverns?
@@slevinchannel7589 Sick, I'll use it to report spam that doesn't belong here
I’d say the tavern with the skeleton barkeep should be named:
“The risen spirits”
And the one shaped like a giant mushroom:
“The fun guy fungi”
Funnily enough, I ran a tavern like the first in a campaign of mine. The skeletons lack the sense to check how much they're being paid, just that they're being given some kind of coin, and they also have absolutely no regard for property damage or customer safety. For evidence, I present the two PCs who ordered the strongest drinks available, drinks strong enough to actually poison them and which left them pretty close to death before they finally saved enough times. I should specify that the second ordered his *after* watching the first guy almost die from the very same drink. xD
@@grahamready1065 if you ever plan on bringing back the tavern in a future campaign, I would suggest having a plaque by the entrance that reads.
“Be advised. If you die in this tavern you WILL be conscripted into the working staff of this establishment.”
@@Nazo-kage You know, I never did specify how the skeletons rose up: whether by a necromancer or some natural magic. I may actually play with that a bit now just in case the party ever goes back, so thanks for the inspiration, lol.
Fun Gus's Fungus
the mushroom one should just be "the fun guy"
I love how the animation of the taverns get increasingly hazy and magical as the tavern crawl goes on. It mimics the effects of one's perception as you drink more and more (going underwater where the atmosphere flows, and finally in the Watering Hole where things are floating and foggy). Very clever!
Oh my god you're right, thank you for pointing that out
damn this dude maxed his perception
"Why are the curtains blue"
The rail-away is the motion sickness/dizzyness
JoCat: I just moved, so maybe dont expect as much.
also JoCat: Heres an Animated Cinematic
there's no way that someone advertising other taverns in a tavern wouldn't get thrown out immediately
That purple stuff was them casting teleport/plane shift to gtfo.

Imagine being a struggling tavern owner who can barely make ends meet due to your establishment being periodically destroyed by evil overlords, adventuring parties, and evil adventurers, and then a bard starts singing about how there are infinitely better options than yours.
Major ouch
This hits too close to home to be fantasy.
They needs better adventuring parties - my rogue slips the tavernkeep gold for every barrel or fitting the barbarian destroys, then nicks it from his pockets next time he's paid. Keeps us in good with Kevin (all tavernkeeps are called either Kevin or Kelly in our campaigns)
poor fucking guy, honestly now I don't wanna "try em all"
@@rhas356 the tavern keeps being called either "Kevin or Kelly" in your campaigns for some reason reminds me of how every Nurse is Named Joy and every police Officer is named Jenny from Pokemon (or at least the anime) .

Everyone else: "No you can't do a campaign that is essentially one huge barhopping trip across the world."
Watch me!
But you CAN have a campaign that is just one huge bar hopping trip across the world, no one is stopping you, and I encourage it

The rarely-discussed goddess of parties, taverns, and inns.

She often takes the form of a mortal bard to visit or advertise her favorite establishments and punish the ones that fail in their purpose by advising patrons to go elsewhere.

Lyrics:
Welcome welcome, one and all.
This place is so filthy why stay here at all?
Why rest in a place so painfully small?
There's nothing to dazzle no spark of enthrall.
Who let this tavern become such a bore?
Rarely does an inn have so little in store.
But what if I told you there's so much more.
Let me show you a place I simply adore.
Tired while traveling I've got just the stay.
Your own cozy cabin in the Rail Away.
The train never stops you may go as you please.
And everything's fine long as you pay their fees.
But we can't stay too long now just as before.
And I could be wrong, is that blood on the floor?
Looks like we aren't welcome you can't ride for cheap.
Let's venture on forward to the ocean's deep.
Well the Drunken Treasure's a haven below.
But where it is exactly I'll never know.
Oh, and don't be surprised by what umm lurks on outside.
And really don't fight it; believe me I've tried.
Lets all take a breather we'll hope for the best.
The first round's on me but you'll pay for the rest.
I hope that this tavern hasn't left you bored.
Next up is a place that is fit for a lord.
Follow my lead to the Watering Hole.
Just know that the fog is always on patrol.
This tavern's my favorite its got its own band, and they're always more than happy to lend me a hand.
Welcome welcome, one and all.
Come visit these taverns, come and have a ball.
Why settle for less and why settle for small?
Its your game to play, why not why not come try 'em all?
(I think I got all the lyrics correct. Reply with any corrections i'll try and fix it as soon as possible. This comment will also be on Runesmith's video)
i think the first verse is "rarely does an inn have so little in store"
THANK YOU I NEEDED THIS! I'm trying to do a cover because yes but hey, my voice is shitty so this is gonna be hard, but having these lyrics are so much better then what I had in the bits where it's harder to understand. Again thank you, you beautiful person you
Thanks a lot for this, I would have been incapable of figuring out the lyrics on my own
Just before see your comment, I finished making my own version of the lyrics. There are a few "fuzzy" spots and I like your version at those places. However, I have 5 lines with slightly different words. Mostly minor differences, but different.
But we can't stay to long now just as before.

This is a D&D campaign I've been wanting to put together for years: One of the players inherits a run-down hole-in-the-wall tavern, and over the course of the game must work to build it up to a truly grand establishment, questing for unique ingredients, dealing with suspicious clientele, deciding whether to act on the rumors they collect themselves or to pass them on to younger adventurers, and building a reputation in the town, be that as a respectable pillar of the community or as a dark den of murderers and villains to be dreaded.

@@snakethesnek8598 Yeah, because she said she's tried to fight it. Since we all know that the standard tactic of bards is to attempt seduction at the beginning of combat, the kraken was clearly not into her.
Seriously, I just played the first session of a new campaign yesterday and, after defeating the kobolds that attacked the standard starting tavern, our bard's first thought of how to organize the noncombatants for evacuation was to seduce the barmaids. He decided it would be bad timing and didn't, but his mind went right there.

Same I want to be able to ask him if he could draw my D&D Goblin the little rapscalian Theodore (Teddy for short) a cute little goblin in a potato sack shirt old um... Borrowed boots a big fancy Duster a poofy feathered hat and best of all a Flute Dagger (it looks like a Flute and works like a Flute but it is also the sheath to a Dagger kinda like a Cane Sword) oh and he is a back pack bard who took the college of whispers
I know their is a 0.00001% chance of that happening but it is a nice dream
I hope it comes true!
*Also holy duck this blew up...*
Idk if he dose commissions but I think that would be the best way!
This gave me some ideas for my own taverns. One that I’m going to put in my next session will be “The Wandering Keg”, an artificier based tavern. The whole 3 story building is on 12 massive legs, and moves from town to town. There’s a bar on the first floor, a tinkerers store/workshop on the second, and the top floor is an inn.
Nice idea I’m sure players would be excited to explore it or explode it.
@@yourtsar824 Probably explore,because the artificers would explode it first.
@@veryconfused5243 They finally encountered it. After leaving the city they were in, they saw a building on the horizon. Over the course of the day, they got closer, before they realized what it was. Our artificier got very excited, and wanted to check it out. They stayed the night, ate some food, bought a few makeshift grenades (range 20/60, 5ft radius blast from impact area, 5d6 fire damage, dex save 13 for 1/2) and had a lot of fun. Only one of them got drunk and nearly burned the place down. Thankfully, being run by dwarven artificiers, they had built in sprinkler systems on each floor, so it was all good!

I'm pledging to Poor Larry to get his tavern to a respectable level, instead.
@@Beybladelouser Wait really!? Is that canon!? Pog!
Cute Iill goblin
The guide we never asked for, but secretly always wanted.
"Welcome, welcome, one and all!"
*OH HELL YEAH, WE'RE IN FOR A WILD RIDE, BOYS!*
Lyrics for those interested:
Welcome, welcome, one and all.
This place is so filthy why stay here at all?
Why rest in a place so painful and small?
There's nothing to dazzle, no spark of enthrall.
Who let this tavern become such bore
Rarely does an inn have so little in store
But what if I told you, there's so much more!
Let me show you a place I simply adore!
Tired of traveling, I got just the stay.
Your own cozy cabin in the Rail-away.
The train never stops, you may go as you please,
and everything fine long as you pay their fees.
But we can't stay too long, now just as before,
and I could be wrong: 'is that blood on the floor?'
Looks like we aren't welcome, you can't ride for cheap.
Lets venture on forward to the oceans deep.
Well the Drunken Treasure is a haven below.
But where it is exactly I'll never know.
Oh, and don't be surprised by what lurks on outside.
And really, don't fight it... Believe me, I've tried.
Let's all take a breather, we'll hope for the best.
First rounds one me but you'll pay for the rest.
I hope that this tavern hasn't let you bored.
Next up is a place that is fit for a lord.
Follow my lead to the Watering Hole,
Tis known that the fog is always on patrol.
This tavern's my favorite, it's got it's own band.
And they're always more then happy to lend me a hand~
Welcome, welcome, one and all.
Come visit these taverns, come and have a ball.
Why settle for less and why settle for small.
It's your game to play why not come try 'em all!?
YES i absolutely don't understand half the words. thanks!
Thanks, now we can learn it by heart
Thanks lad!
If the name of the last tavern is Watering Hole why are there the letters WWH on the entrance
This nags at me everytime I listen to it
@@matuskrivka1462 Ffffff... Can't unsee that now. Curse you!
Jesus Christ you found a way to somehow make a sponsorship into both a beautiful animation and a way to complain about basic taverns
Welcome to The First Steps, located nearby your local adventuring guild. he furniture is always in a state of brand new, recently mended, magically fixed, or recently broken. Fights are between two people and last 10 seconds, or your both out, a rule the Regulars help him enforce. Down on your luck? Benson will still give ya a drink in exchange for a story and encourage ya, then when your luck turns around, maybe you'll be the one to buy a round for the house. Benson doesn't like talkin about his days adventurin' much, on account of his curse that doesn't allow him to touch coin anymore. Luckily he's got Minnie Many Hands: An Ex-Adventurer who didn't like risking her life and just got great at one spell: Mage Hand. You've got 5 seconds to order cuz this Gnome pretty much runs the whole floor, taking orders, serving, and slipping the coppers and silvers behind the bar. Best watch your head if you're up and about, drinks are flyin around here, Literally.
So whether you've just joined the guild, or about to embark on your 20th quest, come on down and enjoy a drink, because a journey of 1000 miles starts with the First Steps.
absolutely brilliant
This is just a max level bard showing those low-level beginners what fun they can/will have on their own journey should they choose to venture forth into the unknown.
🎼Into the UNKNO-OOO-O-O-OWN! 🎶
I think we can all agree that that little goblin in the rail-away was adorable. To think we believed that the gobo was the cutest
IS THAT BLOOD ON THE FLOOR?
Made me think of Murder on the Rockport Limited.
@@slabofbeef7104 yeah me too
Gobo is still king of cuteness imo
0:07 Got to love that Jocrap is a wanted criminal in D and D but I doubt anyone is bold enough to take him out of fear
Has seen the size of his fireballs and the mass of muscles? No one touches that simic hybrid
@@siriusb2045 and his eldritch B L A S T
Welp, that goblin is the most adorable thing I've ever seen.
I love the implication the Seeker just teleports to random taverns and sings about how bad they are
Final part of the adventure: Curing the Traveler's alcohol poisoning.
Okay, now officially D&D is a music genre.
So technically folk music and sea shanties?
I didn't know charm person had a casting time of 3 minutes.
Edit: Isn't the little goblin conductor the cutest? Look at those tiny hands and those big ol eyes
if she’s able to teleport that well then she probably is high enough level to have multiple polymorphs, she could definitely defeat a Kracken
I'd like to believe she has a staff that can just teleport her to any inn shes been too
This is how you advertise a D&D expansion.
at a canon level, bards are the hypemen and MCs of a DnD worlds, among other roles...
hire a bard?
YOU'RE WELCOME.
So I'm stealing all these taverns. And there's nothing you can do to stop me. Thank you, I love it.
I mean... that's the point. It's a supplement for 5e. Pledge to the kickstarter at least a little if you can. Runesmith does great work.
So you are the guy going around picking up taverns and putting them in a sack.
@@rachdarastrix5251 shit, you weren't supposed to find out, my cover story was working so well.
Forget you ever saw anything, aight?

In a cosmic horror campaign, I had a royal with a painting called "Tavern From Another World" and it’s the Nighthawks painting. Anyone can enter inside it and they’ll be in the Phillies diner which is also a secret tavern and can sometimes meet denizens from different universes/realities who have also went into the Nighthawks painting in their universe.
The guy running it is the waiter in the actual painting named either Ray or Jay and speaks in an old New Yorker accent. He's always happy to see new customers, especially bards who are willing to play songs. When you come in with no customers around, you'll always find him reading newspapers or listening to the radio. He's always got an ear open for you and will happily listen to your problems.
At Phillies it's always really late at night, no matter what time it is. The atmosphere always feels lonely whenever its quiet. serves food from 1940s diner menus and has a secret menu for alcohol of all kinds from the real world back in the 1940s. Any violence or threats made will be forcefully teleported out of the painting by Jay and can no longer enter Nighthawks.
Jo's animation, Runesmith's concept/writing, Anna's vocals, and some hella fine music. I'm almost crying! This is gorgeous!
Was an incredible project to be a part of!
JoCat: says he’s too busy over the next few months to post a video
Also JoCat: posts an awesome video
In the announcement he said he had one more video planned for February that was already done
Nothing else has ever pulled me in in such a mystifying way before. I swear I've been doing things other than rewatching this over and over. I swear.
This character is perfect. So much personality and expression with so little detail.
Also love runesmiths new project getting even more attention.
That bard better be an npc or so help me
I'm still not over the fact that a crap guide to dnd is over but this.... This is acceptable.
hope everyone doing good and staying safe. If you need to talk to someone or need help, there are people who care. Sending support and hearts. ❤❤❤❤❤
This is simply inspiring. Worldbuilders can sometimes forget about the place where a player can order a warm meal and a fizzling drink. Where they can sit down and talk about their last adventure or those before them. I just love this variety of taverns to for everyone.
I am angry JoCat isn’t at One Million yet.
Ok, but the lyrics are Dutch auto-generated. Can we have English for a second language on the captions, please?
I captioned them in English on my page...don't know if that helps!
If I ran that tavern, I'd throw the tiefling out. Don't you be advertising OTHER establishments while sitting in MY tavern!
But it's a good songgggg

I'm in love with the design for the goblin girl in the rail away, its so indescribably adorable.
Update I have ordered 3 copies of the goblin plush as well as 1 of everything else.
Nice, also funny username
Dang this would be the perfect spot for a" Shut Up and Take my money" pic.
The guy/girl at 1:36 playing with his/her shark-doggo is the think keeping me from depression with flintstone-gummy-like strength
Without spoiling anything from the book, Poor Larry getting mocked at the start of this is so much more of a "kick them when they're down" moment.

Haha yep.
if u turn on subtitles, and auto-translate it to english.
you can spot some ... good quotes, for example :
1:19 "enter an orgy russian teen"
in poor larry's there's a picture of JoCrap is he wanted? We'll never know.
Wanted for criminal sarcasm
That didn’t say wanted, that said warning
