Dungeons and Dragons is a role-playing game in which a group of players create and play out the activities of characters within a fantasy world. This world is controlled by another player, the Dungeon Master, who arbitrates actions and provides challenges and circumstances for the players to interact with.
“I’m all ears.”
*Underrated stealth elf pun* 👏🏻👏🏻🤣
.... I'm not sure that was an elf pun or even works as an elf pun tbh
Like they have slightly pointed ears they aren't made of ears lmfao
@@ConstantChaos1 And yet it’s often the one distinguishing physical trait humans immediately notice (and point out to the reserved being of whom said auditory receptors are part, much to their chagrin).
Human: Dude… _you got_ *eeeeears,* _bro…_ 😲
Elf: I am well aware, my good… _fellow…_ 😒
@OrionJZed I think you're a bit confused they are not exclusive to elves, both halflings and gnomes have pointed ears as well due to their shared sylvan/fey origins and thats not including all the other groups eirh pointed ears from the aquatic races to draconic, infernal, elemental, Astral, the list of groups pointed ears denote is way too nonspecific imo, I could be wrong but I don't think this is a pun esp since it didn't specify race did it, I might have missed it
Didn't think I'd find the difference between intelligence and wisdom in a UA-cam comment.
@@ConstantChaos1 halflings do not have pointed ears
Missed opportunity: "I thought DnD was all... dragons and... dungeons" 😂
Playing evil characters are some of my favorite dnd memories. In particular, a blood Cleric who worshipped a God of pain and torture. Betraying the most the party, just to also betray the BBEG because I can't have him spreading undeath across the planet and stopping all the pain, was quite satisfying.
Who said anything about evil? Willy Wonka is a cannibal who murders children with insane death traps and bakes them into his chocolate, and he enslaved an entire race of African pygmies to work in his factory (almost certainly in violation of immigration laws), whom he pays in said cannibal chocolate.
If we assume the one shot was based on the book and not the movies, those players were still the good guys!😂
@@chameleonx9253 Good, evil, it's all subjective. Can any of us confidently judge whether someone is good or evil? Was my Cleric, who just happened to be a member of a religious order of torturers for hire that only learned to heal to cause more harm and relished the sights and sounds of pain, evil just because of a word written on a piece of paper?
@@Ryujishida Yes.
No he was evil because he wanted to cause as much pain as possible, which is bad because most people dont like it.@@Ryujishida
@@chameleonx9253 actually the UK was very lax about immigration rules for foreign workers during that time period. We were still recovering from WW2, so we were eager to accept talented people from other countries. Then in recent years, we “lost” the paperwork that granted those workers permanent residency and deported a bunch of them because you can always count on a Conservative government to make life worse for 99% of the population, even if they have to break the law to do so.
Oh please, Wonka would murder any party trying to invade his chocolate factory.
I played a child-like sorceress, my spouse was a giant horned lion barbarian who was terrified of all things magical, our host was a warforged fighter who wielded axes, our other friend was a bard who was cursed to be a scarecrow. We all came up with these ideas separately, and they are in line with our normal play style. We were actually people from another realm, but somehow got transported to the one we were playing in during a storm. The GM added a werewolf PC whose night-day cycle was switched (wolf by day, human by night), and the first town was full of tiny people, and an evil sorceress who threatened to kill us, but was scared away by a good sorceress who recommended that we see the Great and Powerful Wizard to get us back to our realm. It took us getting to THE FRIGGIN EMERALD CITY before I made a joke about this being a Wizard of Oz campaign. To which the GM threw up her hands and exclaimed "FINALLY! One of you idiots got it!"
I love that but one thing I don't get is the reverse werewolf is that supposed to be toto?
@@mikebuncak1271Nobody say a word
What do you mean? Am I missing something?
@@mikebuncak1271 if your missing it im also missing it
also your welcome for the 1 hour brainstorm your going to have trying to figure it out and eventually having to rewatch the whole movie or reread the book
We played on Saint Patrick’s day one, and so my dm made a Saint Patrick’s day themed event in the city where our campaign was. Basically you had to try to tackle a leprechaun and if you did it would give you money, but if you tackled a gnome instead you’d lose money. It was very silly and a lot of fun.
Sounds like a hell of a lot of fun
I love how accurately you portray dnd in your videos 😂
E
DND is the friends we make along the way
Y'know what? A Wonka inspired campaign being a prize for that tiefling orphanage candy heist oneshot sounds like fun.
I've never played a D&D campaign but I want to play one of your sessions so bad. You come up with the most bonkers ideas for games😭
Reminds of my several jars of liquified people (my favourite is the jar of John, I sometimes spread him on my toast)
Absolutely horrifying imagery, thank you, I hate it
@@kavlan453 you’re welcome ☺️
@@kavlan453 would you like to know the origin of my jar of john
Could be worse. Our Party's rogue had an arm melted off, and our sorcerer collected some of the melted arm goop in a vial and kept it.
She returned it several days later.
@@hammington3866yes
Reminds me of that one time i played a swashbuckler who kept hallucinating an ape telling her to do increasingly stupid things in exchange for inspiration but they always ended up playing out to her advantage (befriended an ice giant, jumped off a bridge into a friendly water elemental, almost became a god after stealing a mind-control crown)
Strolling through the comments seeing people talk about their most evil characters and then seeing a pirate with a mystical guardian ape is quite the whiplash and I love that whole idea
My only DnD experience was with an online friend who was creating a story based 10 years after RWBY and was pretty fun. But it ended for a few different reasons sadly, but was fun the few sessions we had
I need to find a dnd group.....
You and me both.
same...
Same here
@@Luredreieryou must do a chocolate factory run in dnd and fight chocolate golems. Yes those are a real dnd monster.
@@xeth9074
Giant Chocolate Egg Falls...
Player Character: I eat my way out.
DM: Roll for Diabetes. I mean Constitution.
One of my buds was telling me about his Christmas One shot where his party was sent to deal with the most horrible Litch in the relms, so awful that one of the ancient god's chosen, St. Nicholas,decided it was better to lock them in a cave and then burry it under 1000 feet of ice...there she sat waiting for the true heros to kill her or for her ensaired thralls to free her, the Covetous, the Everlonging, the Soul-Desiring Ma'reha Cal-ree.
Well, I’m gonna need a full length video on this session
I once played a really evil character in a group of super good characters i couldn't do anything evil around the party i slowly became good until i had to quit and rejoined under the bbegs control (my creator) they won and got me back it was amazing
'Oompah, loompah, doopity doo...Over my dead body there is treasure for you'
Players: Bet!
God, that’s horrifying!
**Wear do I sign up?**
Played a Wild West themed one shot many years back
Still play D&D to this day
exactly today i was offered to watch a DND session but i didn't have a character for it so while the DM was showing me what the party had to fight i said wait, i could play as the mini boss in the fight and he said yeah sure and sent me the creature sheet. this particular party had to fight 4 elementals i was fire and got to pick my weapon, a sword than can turn into a whip called the Karakuri which you might recognize the name of. this is also where this elemental got its name and as I was fighting one of the players, he somehow re wrote my entire core or whatever it was called, cutting off my allegiance to the main enemy that summoned me and basically gave me a will to think. So I killed the other elementals to "free their souls" and I am now apart of the party under the guise of "he want to free other elementals in the world and get revenge on the sorcerer who repressed his mind with a command to kill". so later today or tomorrow im gonna be making a proper character sheet of a slightly debuffed version of what i was in the fight so i can match the rest of the party.
So i just saved myself from making a character
"nothing too crazy"
"one of the best nights of my life"
The actions don’t matter as long as everyone at the table finds it enjoyable.
Wonka's factory is literally a series of case studies in OSHA violations.
It’s sad that I too would try to drown something in the chocolate river 😂
How to spot a psychopath
me telling people about this one warrior cats roleplay i did as a former warrior cats fan and roleplayer in which i was in a rogue group and we had kidnapped several kits for ransom (we wanted the clan’s food in exchange for the kits i think) but my oc had a soft spot for kits so he took care of them and they didnt wanna leave so he just kinda adopted them, and then another rogue who wasnt in the group and who was a cannibal killed and ate my character, then proceeded to remove all his bones and organs somehow and stuffed him with moss and cobwebs to make him a fucked up life sized cat doll and gave it to the kits he adopted as a present, and upon seeing their horrified expressions, took them as ungrateful and just took the corpse doll with him when he left the rogue group’s hideout
genuinely one of my fav roleplays i ever did and definitely the most memorable!!
That sounds like what every dnd party would do😂
DnD: where you can legally act out your most psychotic fantasies
I'm literally the player that the dm has to specify that, no, the tables are not made of wood, no you cannot set them on fire
I did that for a session once. It was being ran by one of my most evil characters, so what was once whimsical and only somewhat unsettling became quite deadly and PTSD-inducing.
Reminds me of that time I nearly got PVP'd in Shadowrun.
We were hired to kidnap some corpo from a charity event. So my suggested plan was to separate her from her bodyguards and then cause panic - which was all fine and good until I came to the point of how I intended to cause said panic.
Throwing a fragmentation grenade into a bunch of handycapped children.
And that was how I found out not one but two players had the "Code of Honor" quality.
I like how he says that's horrifying meanwhile 7 year old children are blasting each other's faces off with shotguns in fortnite
Thanks for the campaign idea. Next time we need one I will DM a short Willy wonka campaign
I thought he was going to shove the exploding candy somewhere else. A literal candy ass, if you will.
I played a Scooby-Doo D&D one shot as shaggy and turned into a ghost eating demon-thing who kept in the group
I played as Lapis lazuli from Steven universe a Water Genasi druid, i have a weird pet but mostly my dm and my party favorite pet "R2-D2" he was an actual character that my character have him as a pet, here a lore, i found him at the abandoned artificer temple full of broken droid part and missing part of the droid, he was alive when i found him as i read the language of elvish name for the droid, lapis lazuli was a unique character and my favorite (i promise that R2D2 doesn't have broken weapon spell)
We once did open heart surgery on the sewers. And I think he used a dagger for the surgery
Wonka is just kid friendly SAW lmao
This sounds like it would be a amazing campaign
this sounds like "dawn somewhere; We will not play DnD: Charlie Chanclas Factory
The best campaign I was a part of was where the players were running a gang in a coalpunk setting.
It helps us redirect some not-so-great human emotions/impulses
This reminds me of my previous dnd session where we were teleported to another multiverse and the first thing I do is freeze The Pope to death using liquid nitrogen
*A world of pure MUTILATION!*
"What did you do this weekend?"
"Killed a giant octopus that was being mind controlled by a fungus"
- actual conversation between my coworker and me.
Evil characters are the best my favorite thing to do is to steal someone’s weapon right before an encounter
man I'm so glad I'm subbed
Remimds me that I still need to throw a chocolate golem at my players.
I got to do a scarlet pimpernel inspires one shot for an English assignment
I want to make this. You have inspired me to make evil Wonka's chocolate evil Wonka's chocolate factory with murderous ompalumpas
"That sounds evil."
"Do you remember what Willy Wonka got up to in the original story? Slavery, and bringing kids to an OSHA non-compliant factory with all sorts of death traps."
I’m running a 1-shot with my friends how have never played and I’m so worried they won’t enjoy it and don’t even know how much time the one shot should take up
Been wanting to run a Willie Wonka inspired game for 3 and half years now, one of my players made a joke about a tour of a Mordain the flesh weaver (Eberron npc who is insane and creates monstrousities) factory. I was gonna run it for a easter one shot but to much was in the way, will do it one day.
About to play Swiper the Fox as an arcane trickster, very excited
Love the hoodie, I'm wearing my shirt and I'm also a car carrying member and tonight is have night.
Yeah, that checks out
"Oh, so you guys got along?"
"What? No, one of us is dead."
"Ah, so there's pvp in the game."
"In the game?"
The avrage joe meeting a murder hobo
i went into a one-shot with a character made 15 minutes earlier and decided he would be a mark of hospitality halfling clean freak cleaning everything with prestidigitation and speaking with a thick minnesota accent
so anyway about 30 minutes in he destroyed the evidence of a double homicide he'd just watched unfold and then the party moved on as if nothing had happened for the rest of the session
Hellfire club sweater! Let's f*cking gooooo!!!!
I wrote a scene for when the players stumble on some Giants, eating villagers, including a pregnant one. It was truly disturbing for them. I was very pleased with myself. I also use details from gore sites like describing the subcutaneous fat you’d see from a wound. I also include details I learned from a medical perspective.
Wilfred Wonka: The Candy Lich
Ah my kind of party😂
I like to play jolly Characters - which have zero moral Compass.
They trash Vases to see if there is something of Value init.
They plunder Graves, loot People and Things they've killed.
So "normal Adventurer Stuff".
With a smile and a jolly quote on their Lips.
But, describing it as it is and thenj make jolly remarks puts the others to thinking and reevalueating - just then for my Char to remark on their hypocisy to doing it for Years and now beeing shocked about it.
Yeah, I play Evil Chars. Thoose who get along well with everyone and just seek to do a Heros Job.
Thoose who smile and help you out, thoose you like.
I remember their was a rouge at our table that a lot of people didnt like and i was fairly new to the table. So he went out of his way to bully and be condescending to me to try and impress the other people at the table. Well I remember we were in these elven woods were the trees were considered sacred but I was the only one that knew this so I passed a note to the DM saying, "I'm trying to intentionally miss." Without saying anything else. He looked at me funny but was like okay and we continued. Rouge, again just being a dick, I told him id bet him 10 gold pieces that I could hit one of the trees with an arrow before he could. The look of on my DMs face was sinister since he knew what I was playing now. We both take our shot at the tree, I rolled high enough to miss and he rolled high enough to hit. He was then immediately surrounded by elves that then proceeded to throw him in jail, and decided to execute his character 😂 he asked for us to break him out but we all decided na, wasnt worth the risk
We can't help it, we're born this way.
Only slightly more evil than luring a bunch of kids into a factory and watching them eat experimental magic candy.
To be fair, Willy Wonka's chocolate factory is already pretty horrifying and evil, so this is actually par-for-the-course.
I thought they woulda done something with the gum
Wet socks are better then all other socks
If I told that to my friends, they would say: "Gawd Damn. I now wanna play, do you mind teaching me how to play?"
My paladin would probably drown an oompa loompa in the chocolate river after hearing enough of their crap. After all he drowned a Shadar-Kai in a vat of ale for less. Justice has no restraint and can therefore be used as an excuse for excessive brutality.
Just a casual Friday
Playing dnd is just being a monster with no repercussions
Wonka status: Oompah-loompah-doopity-doomed
I have the same hellfire club sweater!
I love this idea
Dnd players being wholesome and horrific all at the same time 😂😂 I love rpgs
Sounds like a tame game of Rimworld to me tbh
Here’s a fun combo of spells that will lift the people’s iq a point or two. Polymorph and awaken. Polymorph to any 3 or less iq creature and awaken said creature. Afterwords just drop polymorph. Let the world’s iq jump to 10!
My player, a tiefling wizard, decided to cast Burning Hands point blank into a childs mouth because the child had a frog and my wizard wanted a pet.
He also did cast Bone Chill into a guys throat basically fisting him
....how is that evil? Wonka definitely deserves worse. Dude is a psycho
THEY FUCKING POURED MERCURY ON A CAT LAST SESSION
Okay, but what did the cat do?
@@Griff1011they created a new John wick based bbeg
@@Griff1011 LITERALLY NOTHING ONE OF THEM HAD A FLUTE WHICH CHARMED ANIMALS SO THEY GOT THEMSELVES ALL PETS AND THEN ONE OF THEM POURED MERCURY ON HIS CAT
@@thod-thod Yeah that sounds right.
Lads at my table know I’ve never DM’d. They want me to “because they think it would be cool.” So I’m working on a Fallout New Vegas based campaign. Keeps me from writing too much. Hopefully it can be as interesting as however that Charlie and the Chocolate Factory one shot went.
No evil in dismantling an exploitative capitalist, comrade.
Saludos desde España :)
I fire balled Jeff bezos in a friends one shot before it was great
Sup yall
Hey
whats up!
How you doin
Willy Wonka doesnt pay his oompa loompas. He keeps them in company quarters purely to work. Wonka deserved that- the oompa loompas didnt.
Golden Eggs? Darn, you went with the 1971 movie instead of the original book or the 2005 one.
You will never understand untill you join a group and do it aswell, then it all will become clear
average dnd session
siempre he querido intentar D&D, triste que casi no haya en español
We had one where we ended up in Willy world with penis people and we had to fight a giant penis dragon and then one of us tried running away but just before he did that we made it so instead of rolling a dice we would vote for all in favour, so when we went through the portal back to earth we threw a tsar bomba at him and destroyed earth and then it became Star Wars themed and we had a Death Star, one of my favourite campaigns
I'm stealing this
Usually when we play we spend the hole time talking and rôle playing we like barely progress the campaign when we play
You make me want to resurrect my doxxed Courier Guild project 😢
Were-knarwhale
Wish I had friends interested in DnD 😢
Ok. Hearing Golden Eggs means its the classic musical movie right?
