      I play as a bard in my current campaign and one of my favorite cantrips to use is Vicious Mockery, some of my highlights include:
      “Who’s shrine did you piss on to get a face like that?”
      “I’m glad I can’t read minds, I doubt there’s anything interesting in yours.”
      “I’ve seen better weapons in the hands of preschool children.”
      “You have a face only a mother could love, too bad she’s probably dead” (Even the DM was shocked by this one)

    I once had a elf bard in my P&P group, he could only do two things, evade stuff and persuade people, but by Gygax he did it well (rolled more nat crits than anyone ever on top of that). That character lived through four entire new groups of characters, managed to seduce a whole convent of priestesses (of a love godess but still!) into an giant orgy (because he could), talked a greedy ass dragon in giving up an important thingamajic and even bested the avatar of an god of music in a music duell. In the end, I was forced to exercise my DM rights and forced the guy into retirement because he was to gamebreaking. His legend lives on though, in lots and lots of half elf children.

Further on in the story, I lost those grilled cheeses to a godly power unbeknownst to man. From that moment forward, I dedicated my life to reclaiming those 4 grilled cheeses, until, finally, at the end of our campaign, I helped my party slay gods and demons alike to finally recieve my crispy, golden triangles of bread and dairy product. I lived a life of happiness from then on, forever preserving those grilled cheeses as my own trophies of triumph.

    I'm playing D&D for the first time and my character is actually a bard, so I tried to read a lot of stuff just to make sure I do things the best way I can but now seeing this video I realize I didn't even scratched the surface of my awesome potential. However I see many sharing fun stories, so, even though I'm still a newbie, here's my first one:
    So I was new on the group and on the game, so I really didn't knew what to expect. My party, 'Shingeki no Goblins' (That's the name I gave it, at least) and me were going up a mountain cause some dude told the party, before my arrival, that he was having trouble with some Goblins that had their nest somewhere on that mountain. So before we arrive, a huge, badass centaur shows up and it's ready to stomp our heads cause he's a forest guardian of some sort and doesn't like intruders, so I decide to intervene and talk to the guy, rub his back a lil, make sure he knows we are not there to cause harm to the forest and whatnot. Roll a Nat 16, I believe but since my Charisma is high AF, especially my deception, dude let's us go through and even gives us a magical horn he had.
    Turns out, our DM is new to the thing, and forgot to check what languages do centaurs talk, so in the end the guy did not understood a single word I said, but THE WAY I SAID IT was so convincing that he spared us. I did not get any XP but I was given 1 inspiration point for that performance.

They (monogenders are for organics) had an Embedded Component that basically let them automatically reproduce instrumental music... so they were never without a phat beat for their illest of skillests, laying a verbal beatdown of epic proportions.

      well, we had to fight our old party member who was an evil centaur that made a deal with the devil himself to get a lot of power.
      We managed to kill him but when I went to check if he was really dead he came back to life so we had to kill him again, the druid in our team managed to crit him and one shot him but the demon came back to life once more, this time he managed to kill me and the druid, turning us into undeads.
      The party somehow managed to kill him a third time, this time he was dead for food but me and the druid were ashes on the floor, thankfully an npc offers us a vial that could resurrect the ashes of one of the two fallen heroes, It also happens that we had these little sphere that could send one of us back in time, so of course the first thing my party did was to male a little castle out of the ashes and to pour the vial over It to see what would happen, it was not a pretty sight to say the least.
      Thank god for the time traveling sphere right? Wrong.
      One of them goes back in time and does the SAME thing again, this time tho I manage to get resurrected just fine, so now I can go back in time and resurrect my other friend so that we both live, I do just that but before we can resurrect my friend a bright idea pops in the mind of one of the party members: "can we have two bards at the same time?" We try and sure enough here is an exact copy of me, now, my DM makes this very VERY clear: " be careful not to touch your past self or viceversa, you have no idea what would happen" so the first thing that comes to mind to my party is: "if you have sex with yourself is it masturbation or incest?? You can answer that question now!!!" Thankfuly we were just joking around so nothing like that happened.
      What happened was that while the others were discussing what to do next I was there shouting jokes at myself so clearly what do you do when you want to express how much fun you are having? You high five yourself.
      Thankfully an npc offers us a vial that could resurrect the ashes of the SINGLE fallen, but now another party member has lost an ear lobe and the whole underground is a bit more sad, since everyone is missing a wandering bard in their lives.
      And that's the story of how an epic bard named Valdo was lost to time and space itself.
      But if you could help me I have a mission and a glorious vision, if we can somehow have this channel make a video about my character maybe I could convince my DM that somehow getting erased from time and space is not actually that bad and you can manage to find a very hard way to regain fisical form and become the God of TIME AND SPACE, kinda like gaster from undertale is not really really gone but is actually spreaded across the multiverse, just no one remembers him.

      @@lykillcorreli6740 Well a few weeks before the campaign started we created our characters and the DM asked us about magical items and ones we wanted. Me being a bard and king of the rhumba beat I wanted an Instrument of the Bards, specifically the Doss Lute. Fast forward to the first session, we are introduced to an allied Dragon, who coincidentally had a large stash of treasure including all of the magical items the players said they wanted. We would receive one piece of her treasure if we did a quest. Me being a bard, seduced the dragon and convinced her that we could get the job done better if I "borrowed" the lute. Fast forward 2 weeks later, after some shenanigans breaking the druid out of jail, on top of the clock tower in the middle of town the dark evil dude started an evil ritual of some sort. Now the DM planned for this to be an introduction of the main bad guy, but what happened instead is I cast Fly on the Barbarian, he picked me up and Superman'd to the top of the tower. I used Hold Person on the bad dude, and the Barbarian simply picked him up and threw him off. Once he landed the DM ruled he was not dead from fall damage, but the hold person was still in effect, so we tied him up and carried him back to the friendly dragon. She ate him. And that's how we became heroes.

      Seems like they shouldn't have introduced their big bad on the top of a clock tower if they didn't want him to fall off it. Murphy's law, they really should've seen it coming. I mean, this villain is meant to be _that_ important to the story that the _entire_ campaign hinges on this guy staying alive? Come on, he had no legendary resistances? He didn't have a Wizard cast a clone spell on him? There's a million and one ways out of having him captured or killed. Hell, just have him cheat death by means of some other kind of resurrection. If the DM _really_ wanted that very long campaign they could have had it with the snap of their fingers.

Most of them (wild magic, storm sorcery, divine soul, clockwork soul, sometimes abberant mind) seem to come from ordinary people being randomly 'irradiated' by pure magic from other planes.

      @@justbrowsing4925 So funny story about that... My friend was testing out his DM skills on us with a one-shot, and since he had never DMed before, it was an insane, no rules, anything goes, homebrew one shot. So we get to the dragon, the second to last boss, and my character, an executioner, looks at my friend's character, a bard, and yells "You're a bard! Seduce it or something!" upon which my friend rolled a Nat 20. The DM then just sighed, rolled his dice, went "Oh... Oh no..." and rolled again, looking my bard friend dead in the eyes. The conversation was as follows:
      "So, I'm sorry to say this, but you just took 16 points of bludgeoning damage."
      "I what?"
      "Oh, and you bleed 1 hp every 1.5 minutes until you either die or get healed"
      "What? Why?"
      "It was a male dragon. It impaled you. I'd describe the scene, but it was too grotesque, even for this party."
      The bard got healed, but he was never the same after that. The player, on the other hand, laughed his ass off, as did the rest of us.
