This reminds me of a scene in “Spy Kids 3D” where the Grandpa who’s in a wheelchair by the way, doesn’t want to go back to the real world because in the game he can walk and run again.
The irony of the cleric that can't heal himself.
_oof_
Well Regenerate is a high level spell- most games will never make it that high.
@@HammerheadStarcraft Technically, Lesser Restoration could fix him if it was a disease that did it, while Cure Wounds would fix it if it was a physical injury. Regeneration is only needed if the limb is missing outright.
He's actually an able bodied Assassin sneaking in his gear.
"The real dungeon boss is the staircase." 🤣 I almost missed that.
If you're an adventurer in the D&D settings, and in a wheelchair: You're just being difficult.
There's plenty of ways to restore the ability to walk, and a character in a wheelchair is an actual detriment to the rest of his party.
Anyone who comes to my table and wants to play a wheelchair character is allowed to, but the first quest they go on involves the spiral staircase of the wizard's tower.
As a member of the great house Telvanni stuff your stairs peasant only lesser mages use them. Vertical shafts and levitation all day every day. If someone wants to enter my tower they can buy my overpriced potions and enchanted items or learn basic magic like a reasonable person.
@@vonfaustien3957 Oh, no- the fighter's going to help them up a few flights and just... "oops"
There's always a way to deal with that guy.
Unless it's for a wacky, crack build there no reason to play as a character on a wheelchair.
And to think, Raistlin Majere, God of Time and Death, was just one spiral staircase mishap away from being a total cripple, Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman were just too out of touch with modern day sensibilities in their writing to bravely pull that trigger. Shameful.
🙃🤡 🌎
Wouldn’t someone in a wheel chair prefer to play as someone who isn’t disabled? Like how our fat neck beard selves play as super athletic warriors.
You're not allowed to do that anymore. you must play as stronk independent body type B's with uglyface and body positivity proportions ⚠
You have been warned.
Maybe but not neccicarily. Lots of players make characters with disabilities, not because they themselves are disabled but because for a lot of people D&D is more than just a fantasy but rather an avenue for storytelling and having a wheelchair bound character or a disabled character is just another option that could provide fun and unique roleplay, storytelling, and character building opportunities. And there's also the Possibility for having Disabled NPCs, maybe none of the players are interested in playing a disabled character but maybe the DM has an idea for a cool disabled NPC for the players to interact with.
@@LiPolygon Um....how DARE anyone appropriate disabilities to have FUN with! I can't even believe you typed that out without your keyboard bursting into hellfire!
@@bmardiney lol its funny you make that comment when I am disabled.
@@LiPolygon ummmmmm well I’m black and non binary and uh…mentally ill! So there!
As a cripple "hate the word disabled" this is bollocks i want to be taken away to a story from another world. I dont want to be crippled in that world as well. What were these idiots thinking 😂
It's an attack on your culture.
I recall a woman contacted Brad McQuaid years ago after EverQuest and thanked him because she lost her ability to walk, but found the capability to leave that behind by exploring the world of EQ with her husband. She got to turn off the real world and just explore and have fun and in essence regain her ability to do the things she missed. This doesn't help you turn off or drown out anything. It just reminds people of the stresses of their real life. They're missing the point of games, D&D, and video games as a whole entirely! It's not about inclusion, it's about fantasy, period.
The people pushing this DIE crap aren't even the "oppressed" group that needs to be "represented." 9/10 it's just a woke white liberal that thinks they're an amazing person because they won inclusion bingo by putting a gay, trans, black, disabled, autistic person with vitiligo in a game.
I don't know about you, but I've never tried to make a character that looks exactly like how I look in a game.
I think there's a component of looking for victim cred, even in the gaming space, when someone decides to play a disabled character in a high magic fantasy game. They need everyone to accommodate them and acknowledge their needs. It's really selfish.
@@wightrat1207 "the villain is so evil, that none of his lairs are handicap accessable!" "You must defeat him!" - dm
Imagine adaptating all the dungeons to be wheelchair accessible... 💀
Imagine the poor NPC who has to go to each one and install the new ramps...probably the same poor guy who has to light all the torches before the MC arrives.
And they probably don't even give him benefits...
Imagine they view this as an attack on your culture as a proxy for you.
Lich: Why did you install ramps where the stairs should be?
Architect: So that handicapped adventurers can get in
Lich: ... What do you think all those traps and locked doors are for?
@@Athetos_Admech
Architect: Oh...you're not gonna like the new parking spot then...
Lich: The...wha? The what?
Architect: ...I kinda put in a handicap stable
Lich: WHY?!
Architect: Because it's the current era ,for Lorkhan's sake!
This is the progs' idea of a sick joke on a subconscious level. They want to say to a wheelchair bound person, "Hey, I just want to remind you that even in this make-believe game, you still can't walk, ok? I hope that makes you feel better."
"Ablist" is the most funny term to come from the era of victimhood.
Wheelchairs only work in fantasy if they are enchanted or tricked out with machinery, and even then it only works in very few(mainly urbanized) settings.
Example: Emotionless of the Kungfu fantasy story "The 4 Constables" is a master of hidden weapons and is able to do over the top martial arts in his tricked out chair, even though he can properly use chi, but he has his limits.
This is either a well intended but poorly thought out idea or just another attempt at "Social Credits".
100% the latter
Dungeons and Dragons is slowly turning into a modern day Walmart fattie wheelchair quest.
As a dude in a wheelchair, I find this hilarious. Also, why is this a thing? if anything if someone wants to play a disabled person, it should be like a floating chair similar to what Xavier had in the 90's X-Men books and show. The game also doesn't really have wheelchair rules. I mean going up hill does a strength check need to be rolled. Is their a wheelchair skill? lol
the skill check is for suing the dungeon for not being ADA compliant
@@justinhancock235kek
I played with 2 people in wheelchairs and both of them always played characters that had functional legs.
Warhammer Fantasy had the right idea. Look up the Chaos Dwarf sorcerer Astrogoth. His limbs slowly petrified after centuries of harnessing dark magic, so he built a steam-powered walking frame with hammers for hands. It's silly, but absolutely badass.
The only situation I can fathom in which a D&D character would be disabled would be if the character were cursed to be unable to walk, speak, see, etc.. I can actually think of a situation where a character loses his legs, is cursed to disallow them to be healed back, so he becomes an armorer Artificer whose magic armor restores his ability to walk. Something like that. Could make for an interesting character in the way he overcomes a big limitation. Would be even more interesting if a situation came up that left him unable to use his magic armor, see what his player does to adapt.
That would work.
But that's not why they are doing this
The reason the dungeon has ramps is simple. Its because the BBEG (Big Bad Evil Guy) is also in a Wheelchair and demands that all properties under his control be accessible to him. The party trying to take him out could even end up meeting his architect at some point who is really upset at how difficult it is to create traps and such that his boss can still navigate but that will keep adventurers out.
Some people started changing their characters to have physical imparements years ago. D&D added wheel chairs based on players requesting stats.
Being a wheel-chair bound Cleric is even worse, as your are basically a salesman for your god but anyone can see your god is either willing or unable to cure your legs.
Years ago I created a crippled wizard for a campaign (really leaning into wizards being a paper mache depiction of a faberge egg) and he could only be moved by riding on Tensers Floating Disk. Oddly enough my group didn’t want the hassle
If I had to be in a wheel chair in RL, I would not be in a wheel chair in a fantasy game. Unless... the chair was magical and had abilities like flight and other magical gadgets on it. It would be a choice in a DnD world, with spells like, regenerate, cure wounds, and remove disease, most disabilities can be cured.
And why cant you ride a badass mech? Or just levitate as a wizard? I thought imagination is a big part of D&D.
Reminds me of the one video of a guy with a gas powered motorchair.
I mean, i would love to play Xavier.
Yeah but you're not in a wheel chair are you, so you don't really know what the fuck someone actually in a wheel chair would want. But keep saying what you would do if you had to live with a disability you don't have
Progressives talk about things being offense all the time but this is actually offensive. If you have anyone in your life who is actually disabled for a long time or their whole life, they know their disabled and they know their limitations. Making figures that pretend they can do everything "just as good" is belittling and minimizing the struggle they face on top of everything else in life. However, this is emblematic of the representation culture and totally anathema to FANTASY because this game is supposed to be an ESCAPE for people and not a reminder of their frailty on this Earth.
It's not their goal to actually be inclusive. That's like a smoke grenade to cover for the attack on your culture.
Wait a second.. so they hover? What the heck is the point of the freakin wheels then?!?
What would the best DM do with such heroes ?
Putting alot of stairs everywhere .
The best wheelchair representation in all geek media is Garret from Extreme Ghostbusters. Fight me over it.
Oracle.
Yeah he was a badass
"Goons!!! Make my castle accessible for people on wheelchair, so everyone can get inside easily!" - Dark Evil Overlord
so, do wheelchairs always roll a nat 1 on stairs?
x d e h
They probably use stairs the same way anyone else would use the climbing mechanics. They would have to roll at disadvantage or with a large negative modifier unless another character uses the Help action.
@@DeltaSpark8 If I were the DM, I'd allow it with the following limitations: their Dexterity would be 3, their speed would be 10 feet, they cannot wear heavy armor while in the chair, they would require 2 empty hands to move, they automatically fail any Dexterity check and saving throw, and difficult terrain (including stairs) would reduce their speed to 0. They would be required to abandon their wheelchair and crawl through difficult terrain at 3 feet per turn(half of half their speed of 10 feet). Have fun, special snowflake!
"The problem isn't that I'm laughing at this, the problem is that you aren't."
Just get the poor bastard a greater restoration spell for god sake! a city cleric can do it for 500g!
What happens when the party encounters a set of stairs?
For god's sakes, people don't play RPGs to be reminded of their real-world limitations. They play RPGs to escape into Fantasy or Science Fiction or Cyberpunk, to get away from their borin' dull lives, to be their idealized selves.
Wtf!? As an amputee with just one leg this makes me sick and is attempted pandering however stupid....I am a g*ddam cripple in real life and sure don't want to RP one wtf.....so mind bogglingly stupid! I have enough reminders having to get up and p1ss through the night on my limitations to now be "represented"...this pisses me off...
Even in "Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors" (the first in the series that went more goofball) there was a kid in a wheelchair who loved D&D and tried to fight Freddie in his dreams as a wizard ON HIS FEET. Ya know, because you become whatever you want in a dream or fantasy? WotC are such clowns.
Its disgusting how far D&D has fallen. Bring back the TSR/SSI era. 2nd Ed AD&D was peak.
It would make more sense if it were a mage or a gnome tinkerer. At least the mage could levitate over the rough ground and the gnome could create a spider-walker (like Will Smith in Wild Wild West)
As an avid ttrpg player, its because modern dnd has begun seperating itself from its medevil fantasy roots to a more high fantasy pseudo magicpunk.
Magitech stuff was a feature of very early D&D settings - I think your assumption is incorrect. I’d characterize it as a shift from a game of heroic adventure to an experience of self-expression in a fantastic environment.
You're both wrong, it's just a token gesture for social credit.
I dig it, regardless of wether or not this was done for inclusivity this is just another option for fun character building and roleplay, this got me thinking of reason why a cleric in a fantasy setting would be wheelchair bound, perhaps they are cursed and healing magic doesn't work on them and in order to travel the world to find a way to break the curse they need the wheelchair, maybe they took an oath to only heal others or their deity doesn't allow their clerics to receive healing magic,Maybe they are overcome by survivors guilt where their comrades lost their lives while the cleric only lost the use of their legs and they refuse to heal them to honour their fallen allies.
And you gotta remember D&D is more than just medical fantasy, more than just Faerun and The forgotten Realms, more than any official published setting, a D&D campaign can takeplace anywhere and anywhen, there are almost as many settings as there are DMs running games and in some of them a wheelchair bound cleric fits right in.
And with the discussion about whether or not a disabled player would want to play a disabled character sure some might not but some might. Lots of players make characters with disabilities, not because they themselves are disabled but because for a lot of people D&D is more than just a fantasy but rather an avenue for storytelling and having a wheelchair bound character or a disabled character is just another option that could provide fun and unique roleplay, storytelling, and character building opportunities. And there's also the Possibility for having Disabled NPCs, maybe none of the players are interested in playing a disabled character but maybe the DM has an idea for a cool disabled NPC for the players to interact with.
Defeated by the stairs of doom!
The moment he mentioned a monk in a wheelchair, I immediately thought of Joe from Family Guy.
What good is a Cleric that can't heal himself?
Thing is, there's nothing wrong about having a crippled character. You have a endless supply of ideas to play around with.This is just the lamest way of handling it (no pun intended)
Their biggest enemy is the same as Po’s…..STAIRS!!!
Now Po as a character would be fantastic
the fact that no one involved with trying to sell this thought even for a second that this might be a bad idea is the worst part
Don't Mages have the ability to "Heal" injured people?
Man you would think it would at-least be some cool cyberpunk looking wheelchair
NGL, first time I run into someone using these minis, I'm going to Mac & Me them...
When casting polymorph goes wrong.
Could have been made in a way to blend in more with the world/universe. Like a magic device rather than just a wheelchair.
i got no problem with disabled players or even able bodied players living out their wheeled fantasies in D&D but i question how many would really want to do that. most of us play games to get away from the unfortunate realities of ordinary life, i have psoriasis irl but i don’t want my fantasy character to have it too.
Isnt this a setting where Clerics can restore damaged body parts to functional including regrowing limbs and reversing literal death?
Why would someone adventuring not you know get the issue solved?
I like how craig implies at the start of this by implying disabled people were killed at birth, when he's just objectively wrong and there's tons of historical examples of people with disabilities from those times.
Meanwhile, in Armored Core 6...
Fortaleza Tank builds go WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Just give them a magic carpet to ride around on. Would be far less absurd.
Be fun to run a one shot D&D game with all of the characters in wheel chairs. Ill run the game, we need like four players. Def has to be live!
Anybody remember Proctor Ingram from Fallout 4. She would have been so much cooler if she rolled around the Prydwen.
Okay, to be fair, I don't think the average peasant will have money to heal themselves, or get around by magical means,
But a player or a high lvl npc with access to wealth and magic, I can't imagine many scenarios where the player cleric would be in a wheelchair.
Only plot related reasons like, the character doesn't want it to be healed because of reasons, or its a curse that they need to find a way to lift.
So yeah, this was dumb wotc.
If Elder Scrolls 6 isn't wheelchair accessible, I will now be thoroughly disappointed. Who doesn't want to see how Bethesda would break physics on a wheelchair mechanic?
Representation for all disabled man and mer!
Probably like the Giant hitting you into orbit in Skyrim lmao
The answer is simple.... make a magic mech for the guy. Instead of a mundane wheel chair. 😂
Kinda works in turn based combat, but in reality, melee combat without movement is death.
*Skeleton tips your wheelchair over and walks aways satisfied*
5e has an option for you to play an atheist cleric so it makes sense that one would be in a wheelchair considering he wouldn't be able to heal himself due to him not being granted spells because he follows no god
A better opportunity and more cool would be magic wielding characters that allows the lower disabled to mystically float instead of using legs. Same with disabled by upper disabled, have magic abilities that raise and grab things. That's what I would think would be more cool if I was disabled.
I'm mixed race and not welcome in the mystical realms of D&D.
Okay...in a world that has magic in it why would there be modern wheelchairs? I have to admit, a character who cannot walk is an interesting idea to pursue, but with magic they'd have the ability to levitate right? I can think they'd be constructing less modern looking conveyances to get around, right? That and if you have a gear head type character in your team they could construct for you mechanical legs right? Who works for D&D, unimaginative dolts?
Ahh a personal battle chariot
I would only accept a wheelchair character build if they were like an artificer or something lol
*NAT 21 means you can walk*
So there was no magic item or spell that would fix there problem. There greatest Villanova is stairs.
I got the cleric my friend gots the wizard. Goofy awesome
Would be fun to run a dnd adventure for you and blabs sometime.
Is this cleric from the Trickster Domain?
Is he lulling the enemy into a false sense of security by pretending?
Effective, I guess. lol
Why would anyone want a negative on a athletics and dex check.
Several rules need to be changed, or bent, and the DM has to modify his play to accommodate the one player. I think it's selfish in the same way a player that plays a Drow would cause the players/DM to have to alter their game to accommodate that one player.
Maliciously cast restoration.
still better than he handicapped spiderman knockoff who shot web out of her jimmy from south park looking crutchee
i blame women
I've played M:TG at that store before. It's located right in the middle of a college campus so I suspect there's a ample dose of woke there.
Wizards really hit the deep end. xD They are virtue signalling way too hard! xD
I don’t see the issue with this. Is it out of left field? Definitely but who cares really.
Wheelchair rogue sneak
🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha HAHAHAHA 🎩
