    The intimidation check goes so wrong that they laugh uncontrollably. Intimidation fail, but it still allowed him to head upstairs. Arguably it's a success it just doesn't feel like it.

    One of my favorite moments playing DnD was when I (dwarf barbarian) rolled a nat 20 on my acrobatics check to jump off a railing, essentially did a triple backflip, and landed in front of a bandit, just to roll a nat 1 on intimidation, so I joked that during the triple backflip my characters loincloth came up and he flashed everybody in the room, and our dm laughed so hard he had the bandit skip a turn in complete shock at the scene of events.

    As a GM, if anyone ever rolled a nat 1 on an intimidation check, I always gave their targets a temporary debuff of "incapacitated by laughter" and gave the *player* 15s to blurt out what his character would do to take advantage of this state.

      I like this idea, but to make it fair, i’d make it so as long as they are reacting to his fail and laughing uncontrollably, you are, first, the center of attention, making it so that your character cant really act without them remembering that they are in a fight to the death (but teammates can hide with advantage, and try to attack distracted targets), and second, since it is a fail anyway, you are frustrated by the reaction and by your own failure, so you either freeze, unable to do anything, get pissed off and attack random closest objects and creatures, or try to run away, ashamed

    It makes sense the team keeps choosing to animate the scenes where people end up naked. Its probably way easier for them to draw someone naked than having to make an undressed version of the puppets. Haha

  • @LordyWordy
    @LordyWordy Рік тому +811

    Id honestly love to see an animation of when Kyborg shot 2 separate arrows into the unknown and Mudd casts a spell to make the darkness disappear. They see 2 people fighting and they each have an arrow in them. And one of the people fighting just says, "Alright who shot the arrow" and Kyborg and Mudd point at a fallen enemy (I think Kyborg also kicks a bow near them) and they roll for deception and pass.
    Sorry if I can't remember it well (it's been a while since ive watched that part). I believe the audio is in Bart's Arc.

    Playing a six int Goblin and I find a book that the DM hints at being very useful to the current story. I'm currently on my own as I eagerly entered a crawl space nobody else could fit in so my party have no possible way to say 'keep it' in character. I know I should care as a real person but my goblin cannot read. I instead ask the DM to roll an int check to see if I have the mental capacity to take the book before returning to the party instead of leaving it behind.
    He says to roll a D6 with anything above 3 being a success.
