    In a parallel universe a DM is presiding over a terrible party of adventurers who keep getting wiped by Kobolds.

      Kobolds r really quite nasty when u face them in their nest. I would say this was fairly accurate as they would have tons of traps and would totally throw themselves at the party to protect their clan.

      Don't have to imagine, Kobolds are great as enemies even into higher levels as you can just throw more of them at the players and combine with devious (to a Kobold) traps. For very high levels the Kobolds just need to whittle them down a bit and prevent resting ahead of the dragon boss battle. 😉

    • @travislyonsgary
      @travislyonsgary 4 місяці тому +12

      They were consistently incredibly dismissive of the Kobolds. The Druid gets points for not even acknowledging they were entering the home of the kobolds and framing the behavior under that. And the others ignored the point about the kobolds not wanting them to go to a given religious location and being sapients themselves.
      On some level it may be that Luke didn't actually know that Kobolds actually are quite advanced in mining and community themselves even if they are slightly dumb.

    • @RachDarastric2
      @RachDarastric2 4 місяці тому +11

      Imagine how angry you would be if you were a kobold tribe and this happened to you.
      And more importantly how embarrassed you'd be if taking on a halfling is like taking on a grizzly bear. You would think they'd be evenly matched.

      Make that appearing in two universes, for that beloved NPC of yours shall have the "pleasure" of being in my world. Caern and It'd Be the last time the ever "slip" away. (Funny cause Kobolds have the "Squirm" ability as well) That goose is just a plain old goose but with a silly wizard hat on. Kobolds are not very smart so how would they tell a threat like a real goose or an actual Eldritch Abomination like my DMPC's. Ember Brimstone and Calix, her wolf girl human "pet" she made into one of those OP anime chicks. Another thing, Beggers can't be choosers. I give all my NPCs the AAA treatment. Give them a name a backstory and a reason to live and then I kill them most spectacularly. I watch a lot of 80's and 90's adult anime. Ever heard of Genocyber or how about Angel Cop? Mad Bull 34 ring a bell? See murder hobos in D&D are mean and problem players, but Caern in meaner still and will chew you up and spit you out like some kind of Sick Bubblegum Crisis all outta ass to kick. What a Horrible Night to Have a Curse of Science Fantasy. Lord of The Space Wars. Planet Trekking. Sky Jogging and Ham Sewing. It'll be all fun and games until the Cyber MP's show up and wreck shit with their Tank Police.

    I've had a rather crappy day and badly needed the many laughs this has given me. I love Luke's adventurers he made for this one and how he's playing them. I love all the kobolds. His reaction when they all got sassy about the map and pointing at the tunnels was hilarious and it reminded me of when Johnny had that Death Knight hurl a hellfire ball at Dob that one time. Andy-kobold drowning the high-elf was so unexpected and I love it. I swear this was the five of them seeing just how much they could mess with Luke and I'm 100% here for that. The Dragonborn rolling a critical 1 to swim across the river had me wheezing and coughing from laughing so hard.
    Oh man, I knew Johnny was going to interpret "the private" as being like a military private rather than a private kobold (I did the same thing).
    I love Ellen chiming in with all the druid knowledge at the end. Luke keeping the druid in character and not just having her use something that would actually work against the kobolds is very nice. I also love that Jane had the same kobold for most of the session. I do believe I'm going to revisit this one often when I need a good laugh and cheering up.
