This is a headgun podcast. Welcome to Dungeon Court. I am your beloved great justice movie. I love it. Adjective why not why not.

Really nice. Then of course the almost as beloved Emily Oxford. And the you know also you know pretty beloved sort of called a little tanner. I am honored sir. Thank you.

Is this court-appointed? How mobile it sink for me and then the bay lift who you know occasionally people say something nice stuff about The bin only didn't even proceed my name I'm a higher voice is getting You trailed off justice what did you say anyway? I feel like it's been it's been a minute since we've done this. Was the last one when we were in Seattle? Was that?

Seattle. Yeah. That's a long, long time ago. I'm seeing cobwebs have gathered around the subcredit. I forgot how to play Dungeons and Dragons. And someone left something in, someone left Tupperware in the fridge and it fluckin' stinks in here. Wow.

Oh God. The court fridge. Fail if he could take, I think it'suckin' stinks in here. Wow, God. The court fridge. Baylor, if he could take... I think it's my job to clean that out. That's on me. If he could take an hour and clean out the court fridge while we all sit here in silence, and appreciate it.

Now, let's go ahead and throw to our Baylor if you're in good into it. Here, ye, ye, crit is now in session. The beloved Supreme Crit, justices, Axford Murphy and Tanner are presiding. Hello. Wow. Our first case today comes from Kristen T.

Kristen writes, may it please the court and specifically, Baylor F. Jake, thank you for that. Wow. I present the case of the Voided Portent role. I play a divination wizard in a longtime acquisitions incorporated campaign. We had finally reached level 11 and I took disintegrate with the plan to use low portent roles

to force enemies to fail their saving throws since the spell does nothing on a success. Go ahead, Jell. In the next boss battle, dice-cryst smiled down on me and gave me a not one portent role. Yes, I eagerly awaited my turn in the battle and finally got to use my only six level spell slot to cast a centric rate and force the big bad to fail his saving throw using

my NAT1 portant roll. However, the DM said the BBG rolled saving throws with advantage and that my portant roll would replace one of the two rolls. Oh, that's a really interesting question. Great. I was thinking my first thought was like, well, of course, this person a really interesting question. Great. I was thinking my first thought was like, well, of course, this person has legendary resistance. So if you're of a level that you have,

that you can cast to disintegrate, probably they have legendary resistances, but. Mm-hmm, interesting. That is not where this one went. I argue that the party wouldn't know the BBG rolled with advantage and would only know the final role unless my port and roll should replace the final role. My DM disagreed and said the wording of port and was confusing and proceeded to roll with advantage and took the higher role which subsequently passed my spell save DC.

I was so dejected because the DM completely nerfed my wizard's port and ability and took away what I thought would have been a really cool move in a very difficult battle. So I asked the court, was my DM right? Do port and rolls only replace one roll of the die or did they replace the final roll? I anxiously await your judgment. Oh, this is a really good question to a judge. I do not know the answer.

You know, being a good justice is sometimes admitting you don't know the answer. No, we need to come down hard on someone. I don't know. That's how you get beloved. That's how you get beloved. That's how you get beloved. All right. Okay, starting at second level,

when you choose this school, glimpses of the future begin to press in your awareness. I have an answer from Jeremy Crawford. Do you? Oh, lower points. Portant dye used in place of the dye dyes to be rolled. Advantage disadvantage doesn't matter.

This is what you get. By the wording of portant, it has to be declared before the d to be rolled. Advantage disadvantage doesn't matter. This is what you get. By the wording of portant, it has to be declared before the dice are rolled. So it negates the advantage. It's just saying like, before you're even rolling, this is what you get. Yeah.

You can replace any attack rolls saving through a orability track made by you or a creature that you can see. You must choose to do so before the roll and you replace a roll in this way only once per turn. So you do it before the role. Yeah, poor it does not interact with advantage, just advantage because it replaces an entire role.

Yeah, if it's before the role. Damn. So we just have an answer to this one. A firm fucking answer. Oh, that answer's going to be good. I feel how did you get that answer so fast? A little something called, it's kind of my secret trick called Google. It's for justice is only.

It's for justice. Yeah, we don't let you have Wi-Fi because we know that you would just scroll hot butts on Instagram. Yeah, honestly, and what I've done is I scrolled a lot of hot butts that I've just like drawn in my notes app. Because I need to find a way. That's why I didn't clean the Tupperware. Since we solved that case so quickly,

they grant a rule on whether that's okay, whether you're allowed to look at hot butts that you've drawn. Yeah. On workouts. Those are your butts. I don't know. I mean, you can look at hot butts all the time,

but the question is, can you use work hours that we're paying you for? Oh, that would be hot butts. I work with the simulacrum of the butts in a scrolling format replicates Instagram and thus becomes Instagram. I'm gonna say if he draws the hot butts on his like players handbook while he's doing research,

that's fine. Okay, okay, okay. Okay, yeah. And what if looking at the hot butts inspires me to work harder when, you know, when I called upon scrubbing Tupperware and the like. I think that we can on a trial basis allow you to enjoy upwards of three butts during work hours.

May I have access to data? I don't need Wi-Fi, but I just want data. I'll pay for the book. What are you gonna do with data, man? Just don't save the pictures. Let's talk about this case a little bit, right? Cause there is a technical right answer, but we've never followed that.

Sorry, did I do something wrong by just finding the answer? No, no, no, no, no, no. That's why. If there is an answer, we would have been added, had we not addressed that yet? So yeah, it is good though to hear DM's perspective,

because a lot of times you're in the heat of battle, you gotta make a choice that you don't know what the right answer is. So I actually would, I wouldn't say that the DM was wrong right off the bat, but I will say they handled it poorly. I think that, as written, I think the port and rolls thing is a little bit confusing.

I think the thing that is the kind of like nail in the coffin is the fact that it's supposed to be said before they roll. So they're probably advantage, a disadvantage wouldn't have anything to do with it. I think though where this DM really fucked up is making their player feel sad that they didn't get to use their ability. And in fact, wasted their ability and their sixth level spell. Like this person sounds dejected like they had this big plan and then lost it. Well, that does happen. It is part of the idea.

That does happen. But this was sort of a well planned thing and getting a one on a portent role, you, you should have a moment where yet dice Christ has has shown upon you and you should have a moment where, yeah, dice christ has shown upon you and you should get to jump up and down when you finally get to reveal that. I will say that had the DM made a meal of this, there's a world where this could have worked,

where it could have been like, okay, this person has magical resistance, they get advantage on saves, so I'm gonna go ahead and say that you give them a one on one of the roles and then we're gonna roll in front of the table and see what happens. And that way at least it feels exciting. It feels like a, you know, like a near miss instead of it just being like an argument right away. And then a deflating thing of them just rolling a save. There's a way

that the DM could have salvaged this. I definitely say that the DM is with a little bit because especially in home game, the DM is kind of like the host of a party. And if somebody casts disintegrate on what is supposed to be a two hour battle and then all of a sudden the night is done, 30 minutes into the battle, it's rough because you've got so much planned.

Decintegrate auto kills people if it would have got them down to zero, but it doesn't auto kill the flat out. It just does like a bunch of damage. Okay, yeah. If the DM was gonna fudge shit, the DM should have just, and not that, I'm not that I can tone this behavior,

but if you're gonna, if you're gonna fucking fudge it one way or the other, fudge it to give the bad guy more HP if you need them to have like a longer fight. If you don't have anything else play with your strength. They'll strike that from the record. Do not let it be shown that Murphy's role is such a way.

I don't do that on my show. I'm saying though, if you're doing this, DM was sweating and taking away player abilities. That's a good solution, I think. Yeah, like beef up the numbers a little bit just so that the battle can keep going, but they do get the big win.

When something that your player does is something that DM does not want to happen, rather than say no and then kind of try to like argue every single possible way to get your player to agree, you should kind of say, okay, yes, it okay. Dot, dot, dot, as you think, as you're bored. You could even just be like, okay, let me see how this works.

And then you can pretend to look at a book, but you can just think. You could go out there. Not a yes and, but, okay, let me see how this works. And then you can pretend to look at a book, but you can just think. I love that. Not a yes and, but an okay, let me see. Yeah. What it feels like is like sometimes things just can't work because it doesn't work for what the DM has prepared. But that's not a good enough answer to a player often. But it's still a fair answer.

But you can kind of get the player there in your own way. Everybody always complains about railroading, and we hear on the show always say that railroading mostly isn't a thing when people complain about it. That's mostly just, yeah, the DM plan some stuff, and like usually you do a lot of this stuff. Player agency is important,

but there are times when a DM, you know, sometimes players will do something that's completely unexpected and then it becomes the best session ever because then you just all improvised together and it's this to make the session way worse or it's gonna deflate everything or it undoes something or it takes off a whole side of it and it is okay to I don't want to say fully steer people back to the main thing but like you can find something in between right like if a hard left turn is gonna ruin everything you can find something in between, right? Like if a hard left turn is gonna ruin everything, you can make it a veer left. Yeah, I think it's also okay to just be like, hey, I wasn't expecting this. Y'all go to the garage and just crack a beer

and have a 30 minute party while I figure out what to do. Just take a victory lap in the garage. Yeah, and you hear it on our show, my thing is sometimes I'll say, okay, and sometimes I'll go, yeah. The hide-and-ditched, yeah, means I'm panicking. That's just so. Well, also, it gets edited out, but sometimes if we do something

that's like, take some by surprise, I'll be like, sorry, do you not want me to do this? Should I not do this? And I'll be like, no, you should do it. You should do whatever you want. And we edit out sometimes where you just scream fuck, like really, really, really, online. do it. You should do whatever you want. And we edit out sometimes where you just scream fuck, like moving real hard. Where I go, God did it!

Why can't you guys just stay on the fucking grounds? Yeah, and we edit out when you knock the bookshelf over and it lands on the microphone, and I grab a call to a buy his collar, and I say, just make the frog attack. The frog attack, the guy. You're a meta gamer. Real roaders.

Real roaders. We wereers. It's great fun. We were able to actually repurpose my strangulation noises as Saul did. As Saul's. As Saul's. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. Anytime you hear Caldwell make a frock noise on the show,

that's because I'm attached to it. Okay, that's a joke, guys. That's an absolute joke. Okay, we don't need to start this narrative. Murph only assaults me with consent when we're wrestling after a session. Yeah, there you go. Okay, so, but this person, you are the short answer

is that you're totally correct that it should have just replaced the role and negated the advantage, just advantage. Even if DMs should be allowed to like do table rules, so like you don't have to go exactly by the book. But if you're going to make your players abilities worse, you better damn sure make it fun. You're new.

I like that. I like that. Put that on a fucking DX screen. I like that. Yeah. Put it on the screen. And the beloved spirit justice has spoken. And now since you have spoken,

would you like to carry the sword? Those who pass the sentence swing the sword. This DM needs to make a screen printing business and sell that t-shirt now. Well, but not make, but give the profits to the person who's port and roll this stuff. Yeah, yeah, and I do think it needs to be a t-shirt made of metal.

I think it needs to be a real change of mail. Oh, a change of mail. Change mail shirts. And they need to do each of the little rings individually. Guy. And think it needs to be in the room. Oh, a chain mail. A chain mail. A chain mail shirt. And they need to do each of the little rings individually. Okay. And they can do the words it can be in the rules. Learn how to blacksmith. Learn how to blacksmith.

Apparently that's a punishment. Yeah. Seems pretty cool. Seems pretty cool to me, but. You need to become a blacksmith. Seems like a fun hobby. Seems great. Seems great.

There are blacksmithing classes in LA and they get filled. Why don't we do? We should give them a worse thing than learning how to blacksmith. We should just, they have to buy a cake that says, sorry on it for the person who's important role. Oh, they have to buy a role, a portant role for the person. Oh, nice.

Oh, you need to get them a portant role. Perfectly. And you're number one. I've seen the future and I think you're going to think this is delicious. Yeah, that's it. And give them a is delicious. Yeah, I say that to them. And give them a little way. Let's just integrate these roles together.

Yeah. Okay. So ordered. That's a delicious little sentence. Our next case comes from Jake M. Jake writes, I was DMing a campaign in which my players were investigating a large tower that was a city's bank. The bank had been evacuated. A city bank? The large tower that was a city's bank. The bank had been evacuated.

A city bank? The city bank. Yeah, the city bank. Yeah, that's all by the bicycles outside. The bank had been evacuated due to unusual plant growth through the tower. Upon entering the tower, my players found a large tree residing in the lobby fountain. After the sorcerer hit a not-20 perception check, I told him of the things in the room, but neglected to mention that the tree in the lobby

was a triant since triants are indistinguishable from normal trees while remaining still. The party was ambushed by the triant and took a good bit of damage from the encounter. But now my player never trusted nat 20. Was I too strict on the perception check or was I justified to keep the triant a secret based on its description?

I think that I think you were a bad baby A little bit of a bad face Present your wrist they're gonna get a tiny little slap. I feel like if your players are coming in and being like Perception check a lot of times what you're kind of doing is like is someone waiting to ambush me Yeah a lot of times what. And hypothetically, if there was a situation where people have disadvantage on perceiving a creature, then you could potentially make them roll it again and then take the worst one.

But I would imagine that it didn't have that feature. Also, it's interesting because I know that a Nat20 doesn't mean automatic success. Right, but I'm saying in this situation. But in this situation, I would say in Nat20, you're looking at the tree. Is anything weird going on here? And it is a tree.

The tree wings at you with a Nat20. I think you've noticed like a slightly unnatural movement. The tree has lips and it licks them with a Nat20. I think you gotta give them a slightly unnatural movement. The tree has lips and it licks them within at 20. I think you gotta give them something. Yeah, sure. I think that, um... I think you see it's Rudy hands going for the hilt of a tree dagger. You see it checking its tree phone.

Yeah, it has to be one of your other. Either it's indistinguishable from a tree or it has a tree phone. And I'll watch it at the tree phone and a tree watch and a tree phone. And Owl pops out of the knot and says, be careful. Yeah. My house is a lie. My house is a guy.

He's like a guy. He's a dude. His intentions are ill. Ron, be careful. I think also especially because it sounds like the only reason the triant was there was to have an encounter. The triant just attacks them. So it'd be, you know, once again, I smell the DMs sweat.

When somebody, like, has an at-20 and you wanted to have something be a secret, it's one thing if, like, your BBEG is, like, invisible and following them and, and like is gonna reveal themselves later. That stuff is okay to kind of be like, all right, I'm gonna use the letter of the law here. I'm gonna make sure that the BBEG doesn't get caught, but if it's just a fucking triant that got a surprise round on them, and all this would have done

is eliminate the surprise round. I think in this situation, you're like, oh shit, you got a Nat 20, this guy was gonna ambush you, but now it's just a normal fight. Yeah. When else can you reward something like that? They asked to do the perception check too, which I feel like is something that DMs are usually happy that their players are, you know.

Right. I really, I'm really, I'm really, gotta laugh though at your self-awareness and being like, my player doesn't trust Nat 20s anymore. Yeah. It makes sense. That's rough. Which is actually a really, that's a severe crime. You've taken the joy of a Nat 20 away from a player.

Oh my. This goes back to the last case. If you're going to nerf your players, you better damn sure. Make sure it's fun. I don't want to jump into punishment already, but I do think that the court can issue a coupon for a free Nat 20 here.

Oh, that's true. Yeah, we do give out coupons. We mail them out pretty aggressively. But I do think that the court can issue a coupon for a free Nats 20 here. Oh That's true. Yeah, we do give out coupons. We mail them out pretty aggressively. Yeah, I also think there's there's a Just a minute case during our mailing list as soon as you submit a case She get a Nats 20 coupon. We ruined games I think that's actually why the port and person was a shut down because they tried to present a coupon instead of these very cool port control, which is now that I think about it fair. No, I do think you've done so many. I think you also with the Nat 20,

even if you were going by the letter of like what it says in the Monster Manual, you could have honored the Nat 20 without saying that the triant is about to attack them. You could have been like, you noticed that the tree is here, but it's not completely rooted down. You're kind of like how the fuck is this tree here?

Like it seems to have been moved. You know what I mean? Like you can say something like that. And that. Or you can have an introduce an owl. Or maybe the tree is whispering slowly. Tree, tree, tree. I like the owl being like,

ooh, is this tree that I'm in? Yeah, there we go. Is it? Yeah, it's a ghost. Is this dude? Question mark? Yeah. That's pretty, I just think in general,

an overly verbose owl is really gonna save you from a lot of pickles as a DM. So like really just keep that in your back pocket. I think that's a great punishment for this DM. Too many pickles get an owl. This, I think this DM is gonna need to introduce in an owl NPC. Yeah.

That pops out any time your player's hidden at 20 to make a magical again. Oh, yes. You've kind of taken the magic away. Wow. And here's the thing, they've got Owlin stats. I think it's Owlin. There's like a, there's an owl playable race now

because of Strix Haven. So like you can just rip it right from that and then all of a sudden that owl's in your game. So it's gonna be kind of like the Toasty Guy and Mortal Kombat. Where if you do something cool, the Toasty Guy comes out except when you get a crit, the owl comes out and you see a little bit of information.

That tells you that there's any triants around. I feel like we also need to punish them a little bit, right? Cause this is kind of a fun thing. This is great. Yeah, we made their game awesome. Oh, it's true. Yeah, it was like we're making their game really awesome. Right, their game is awesome, but now their life has to suck.

Yeah, so you could maybe just like every morning when you wake up, you have to jog a huge class of water. That's just, that's it. That's, that's just healthy. But again, we're helping out. That's water is so gross. Water water is gross. It's the life water of the U.I.s.

You can't, water's all over. You can't bring this to the table. And we have work to do. Water is good. Water is so thoroughly with this information. We have a lot of cases to get to. This is gonna be our whole day. Water is gross. Water is gross. Fine, we'll do whatever punishment you all want to do. to get to this is gonna be our whole day water is water is

growth I will do whatever punishment you all want to do make it eggnog okay every more than a week let's let's put it in the game I think I will and I willl Agnog. The Owl's name, who? Owl Eggs, yeah. Owl Eggs, cool. Owl Agnog. Also, Agnog is the name of the Owl. So I think you pour yourself, you pour yourself a warm glass of Agnog.

It needs to be room temp at the start of each session. Lift this Agnog out overnight. And you say that as you kick off the session and then you leave it, you don't touch the Agnog and you say that as you kick off the session and then you leave it, you don't touch the egg knock and you don't explain it to your players. And then as soon as they hit a nat 20, you down the egg knock and immediately launch aggressively into the owl voice and owl description without practicing it. I love a punishment chug jug at the table by the way.

That's very fun. Just warm nog. I'm gonna call it egg nog specifically. Yeah, that would be a gnog. Not a gnog, just nog. Yeah, fucking so wordy. Actually I have a really good cashew nog. You love the nut milk.

My nut milk. Can we take a recess to ask Emily what's up with her funky water? I would get rid of you. I would get rid of you. It tastes good from that. Whenever I know I have a big like thing that filters my water, it's just so boring. I'm like squeeze the lemon into it. Yeah, I definitely put some lemon into it. It's just like whenever you try to drink more water, which is the life I'm living, you're always like,

man, oh man, I feel like I'm drowning myself slowly. Okay, all right. Now, I guess I can understand that because I just don't drink water. And that's not a solution either. Whenever, if you drink the amount of water, they tell you to drink, it is an insane amount of water. I drink more than the recommend.

I just can't run an algae in. I'm drinking an algae in that I have next to my desk that I just drink like throughout the day. Jake, I'm in high cheers brother. I was very good, cheers. Where's he at my swell? There you go. You got your water bottle.

Emily's got her kombucha, not water. I had a lot and I had a grapefruit juice. And does it in this joyless way, where instead of just drinking water throughout the day She's like it says I need to drink 16 glass What are we gonna do to make water exciting to you? I'm like should we get you like I said? I know I have a really good way to make it I think it counts as water. This is completely off the rails. You guys can edit this out

This to the front of the up. Yeah, well this is gonna be I'm not trying to plug a company, so I'm not gonna plug what the company is, but I found this water that it's like a seltzer with chamomile tea and hops, like beer hops, but it's not alcoholic. And that shit is great. But I don't know if that counts as water whenever I have to sit there and just pour myself a water and just drink 32 ounces of fucking water What about a crazy straw? Or or how about an IV drip? That would be ideal. What about a crazy IV drip? I might twisty bright pink IV Okay, I could get into it. And we've solved my water problems.

All right, so ordered. And actually, we may stay in recess just for another moment because Jordan updated their Supreme Crit tracking document. Wow, which has been tracking every single case tried by the crit. We have tried 173 cases. Oh my gosh. 173 people's lives are better.

And that is, that's 89 players, 84 DMs. Oh, that's way closer than I would have guessed. Yeah, it's pretty interesting stuff. We are a crit moving ever north, 55.4% of our cases are ruled for the players. Wow. You're like, what? You're like, what?

You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what?

You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? You're like, what? progress Emily. Well, I'll give you that breakdown actually. First I want to recognize some crit trends that Jordan has told me about. Animals have been involved in 46 cases. Yeah, I think they should be. They're always the funniest questions.

That's like a fourth of our yeah. And of that, the animals have been birds, 35% of the time. Wow. Yes, that's it. This is why we keep talking about birds. A third of birds. A third of birds. A third of birds. A% of them. Wow! Yes, that's it. This is why we keep talking about birds. A third of birds. A third of birds. A third of birds.

I'm very focused on birds. Here's where the, the, the justice is lie on the die. Nathan Yaffe remains the ultimate players justice with a 16 on the, on the die. That's here. Yeah, he's mostly ruling with the players Beloved the DM justice you guys will be surprised to learn that it is Zach O'yama. Oh Actually that totally checks out though. Surprisingly has a low tolerance for shenanigans

Because he's such a great improviser and because, especially on D20 and stuff, when you see the way he acts physically and everything, he's kind of a big performer, but when you talk to him about somebody pulling shenanigans or something, he just shakes his head and goes, come on man. That makes sense to me. Just above Zach is you, Emily.

10.69 and literally just above that, 10.70 is Murph. So you guys are very... You're in lockstep. Yeah, it makes sense because I'm always thinking about my husband. And most of the other justices are thinking about you, Emily, because overall rulings of the crit have most frequently agreed with Justice Axford's rulings. That's 90% of cases we agree with you. That makes sense. She is our leading light. I think that's just gonna get me into trouble.

I don't think that's necessarily true. How is it agreeing with me? I guess we all are all in agreement the most when you are like, bringing one with whatever you want. I might be being surly, and I have a hard time convincing people to join my cause. Which actually does bring me to you.

Personal rulings have more frequently disagreed with the overall rulings of the crit than any other justice is you. And also of all the justices is most often the first to recommend the plaintiff needs new or different friends. That is the solved all of this, right? It's not the solved though because sometimes you got to figure it out.

We did actually though, my friend Steph was like boss babies actually a really good movie and we had a hole back and forth between Murf and Steph of Steph defending boss, baby Related to the boss baby campaign. Yeah, we're sending voice about most of each other Oh, yeah, I heard some clips from this it was a very civil debate really made me feel like maybe maybe maybe logic and reason can save America If we if two people on the boss baby coin can get along then That's, that's beautiful. This episode of NADPOT has brought to you by Bird Dogs. There are company that makes pants and shorts, so no matter where you fall and the age old

battle between the two, you can rest assured that Bird Dogs has you covered. Now we all know when the legwear war begins and we're forced to choose a side, it's gonna be difficult! Luckily, Bird Dogs has made the decision of which pants and shorts to buy a little easier. Bird Dogs stretchy khakis are designed to fit slimmer through the thigh and leg to give you a truly sculpted look. And instead of making their clothes out of restricting cotton, Bird Dogs invented a cloud-knit fabric that looks just like khakis, but stretches so you get a way slimmer fit without having to sacrifice movement.

And trust me, you are going to need all the movement you can get when you and your brothers and legs are out there on the battlefield kicking the shit out of your rivals. So when the lower body battle begins and brother is forced to kick brother, make sure you are wearing bird dogs.

And with that, let's it for me go team pants and enjoy the show And with that let's return back to crit and try our next case from Adam B There's case is the case of the dire jackalope food truck street racer I'm in I'm in food truck street Truck Street Racer sounds like a punk album that I want to own.

Wow. Yeah, box car racer, right? Yeah. May it please the court of the high crit. I come to you with the case of the dire jackalope Food Truck racer. I DM a game for my wife and a few for gal pals who are mostly new players.

Cute, nice. Good deal. Very sweet. I like this. Their crew were asked by a friend to help them in a Food truck street race, a competition for the best parking spot for a festival the following morning. The wagon was drawn by a nervous but speedy dire jackalope named cinnamon.

The druid, level three, decided to give the cart a boost by shifting into a dire jackalope herself. The player said that she should make the cart substantially faster by adding adding Jackalok power JP I decided no because it would have messed with the race pretty quickly if all the other racers were left in the dust I resolved to giving the players advantage on soothing cinnamon because now she had a friend This was important because cinnamon could be hurt and would risk the party losing control of the food truck The player was clearly disappointed and confused on why I didn't increase their speed but was agreeable and did not fight me on it for more than a minute.

Did I make the right call or did I ruin my new player's cool move? I await your judgment. My first thought is I like what you landed on. Yeah. Yeah. I guess I have a question. Was cinnamon pulling the cart

or was it driving the car? I believe cinnamon was pulling the cart or was it driving the car? I believe cinnamon was pulling the cart. These are like horse drawn or steed drawn food carriages. Okay, I gotcha. I mean, I don't hate this because it does keep it interesting. However, it gives them a really significant advantage. You know, rolling a bunch of rolling with advantage all the time is not to be scoffed at.

I also think that the idea that like, just adding another animal would make it faster. It makes me think of, if you've ever tried to row something with someone, it's like, you have to really sing in supernized. And that's not something that you can make up. So, you know, it wouldn't, it would stand to reason for me that two animals would need to time to sync up.

Yeah, you need a different rain formation too. You might need a yolk, yeah. Yeah, but I think that that doesn't solve it. I know where you're handed, where you landed. Yeah, I think that that kind of doesn't solve the core issue, though, which is that the player felt like they had a cool idea and it wasn't. And it became a dice roll thing instead of a,

I think what they wanted was like a cool story thing. You know what I mean? Like a cool description of them pulling the cart and things like that. But I think they got that though, right? Isn't the implication that they were still as a dire jackalope running alongside? And it was just comforting cinnamon

who was like the workhorse. So you want to race along a dire jackalope and instead you end up soothing one. Yeah, exactly. So maybe the fall was saying, like, oh, soothing it. Maybe it's like, yeah, you know what? This'll, you guys aren't going to go double the thing, but you'll get advantage on all your attacks. Right. I think this, I think this DM is great right off the bat. I will say that because they clearly care about their players feelings and a fun world and hopefully, exactly. It seems like it seems like you came up with a very cool idea. Contest for the best I will say that because they clearly care about their players' feelings and they have fun, world, and hook up.

Exactly. It seems like you came up with a very cool idea. Contest for the best parking spot I could get into. I will pitch a slight tweak, which is that you could have just had cinnamon be replaced by this player. You could have been like, there's only room for one person to pull, but instead of having your NPC do it, which isn't as exciting, let them do it themselves, and then that makes the players more active in it, you know what I mean?

It's also very funny just to like kick cinnamon out. You got my rejected rabbit who's just like chilling in the cart now. They might have wanted to run alongside cinnamon, right? They might have wanted to be part of a herd, you know? But I think you could have just had cinnamon be like, like, it sounded like cinnamon was nervous. Cinnamon could be like, will you do this race for me? That would be great.

I'll let cinnamon comfort the wearer jackal or whatever the heck they were. Yeah. Or cinnamon could like be in the back like chopping up stuff in preparation for the cookoff later. I understand why you need to put NPCs and positions where they're gonna do stuff to kind of like further

the story, but if a player kind of offers to do it, always swap out your NPC. You know what I mean? Yes. I understand. Sometimes you make a cool NPC. You make a nervous jackalogue name cinnamon and you're very proud of them and it's tough.

But like, I don't think it's gonna be there. They can still be there exactly. What happened here was like, the player described what they wanted to do, and you said, actually, if you do that, then it'll be too good so we can't have that, you know? Yeah, you should say, you can do that, but it won't have the effect

that you are thinking it will have. Yeah, yeah, that's a really, I think what Jake said is right, right? It's like, you're like, okay, actually how this plays out is it won't double your speed, but you will be rolling with advantage. And then they still have the visual of where I'm running alongside this jackalope.

What I'm in the race. Yeah, right, because they didn't get to do what they wanted, which was help pull the cart. Right, no, you can't do that, but you can just kind of be there for the jackal. And I think if you just deprioritize your DMPC though, you can use the exact same mechanics you were going to use anyway. Like it's almost like if

you think about we're doing Bohumi or something, if it's like, there's a race or you guys are going through a mine cart and somebody needs to push the cart. And so I described Bound or jumping out and doing it and hard ones like, no, I think I should do it. It's the equivalent of me being like no Bound or insist he and doing it and hard ones like no, I think I should do it. It's the equivalent of me being like no Bound or insist he does it But hard one can tell Bound or he's doing a good job and give him a good

Like that kind of you know cuts hard one off in a way that's like Ryan nerfie, right? No, Bound or would do it and in doing so he gains two levels But you know what I mean like he leaves hard one in the dust if I have if I have No, Balnor would do it. And in doing so, he gains two levels. But you know what I mean? He leaves hard one in the dust. If I have stats for a game that we're gonna do, where you guys are going down this mine cart and somebody's pushing it,

I can still use it, but with hard one pushing it, just change the flavors to let the players have a little bit more fun. Hearing this is making me miss wild shape. Yeah, I was going to say like being able to just turn into something like that because it's a little bit of a sacrifice for the player too because like unless you're concentrating on something you're not going to be able to cast spells during the race, right? Yeah.

You're kind of sacrificing a lot to take this position. Yeah, 5e doesn't let you cast spells, at least maybe Moon Druid eventually can. I'm not sure. Anyway, I gotta say I love getting a little freaky tweak of the week from Murph. I really like it when you put a lot here, just a little tweak. That's all you needed was a little tweak. I think you did a tweak. A tweak from a deepie.

Did a pretty good job, but I think I am going to rule against you unfortunately. Yeah. Well, so what's the, yeah, is there a punishment that can fit the crime or do we have to go cruel and unusual like you, like always? I think, I think JP. I think JP. Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack,

Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack,

Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, online do a water calculator, find out how much you're supposed to be drinking, and then spend the next week completely water logged. Yeah, you're going to be bored out of your mind too. The worst part about drinking water is just being bored while you're doing it. Gotta go online and find the biggest water bottle you can, and then you have to bring it everywhere you go. And like, people are just going to look at you so funny when you love this enormous water bottle on the table. Just get a fucking double size Nalgene

that says this again on the side. I'm gonna get a bumper sticker to put on your Nalgene that says water lover. Something like that. H2O, yeah, I'm drinking my water. H2O, yeah, that's good. This piece of shit drinks eight glasses a day. Eight glasses would be doable.

They tell you to do so much more. I thought it was eight glasses, did they update it? I don't know, maybe I found a shit water calculator. But this thing has me as sucking at the tap's teeth. I'm drowning, fam. Drink water throughout the day. You gotta stop listening to big water. It's eight glasses, that's all you need.

Okay, so ordered, I think we sent in this person to drink water. Healthy lifestyle. Yeah, I guess we, no, but the big Nalgene's gave me so annoying. Give them a punishment that you want. To drink water. Oh, okay, you do want that, okay.

Okay. Yeah, no, you have to stay hydrated all the time. Also, your car is replaced with a jackalope sled. Oh, there you go. Yeah. But that's so awesome. Yeah, it's really awesome. It's gonna be extremely slow, but it is very awesome.

And it's gonna have huge cup holders for all the water that you're holding. And then you gotta feed all your animals. And like, jackalops lead on, like a sled is gonna take so much damage from just going down the road. And like on the highway and stuff. It's also gonna damage the road, probably, yeah.

You thought gas was expensive. Wait till you see jackalops. You're gonna get pulled up quick. You're gonna be paying it the pump. Yeah. Cause those jackalops, you'll still go to a gas station cause jackalops just want snacks all the time. Yeah. Because there's jackalops. You'll still go to a gas station because jackalops just want snacks all the time. Yeah.

Just get them slim jeans. Ooh, snowballs. Snackalops more like. Snackalops. We got a road trip coming up. It's going to be a lot of fun. We're going to be popping off some slim gyms. Oh, yeah.

Oh, absolutely. And we are bringing our rabbits. I'm going to get myself so sick before the show. Or the Dallas show, hell yeah. OK,, we got our next case from Tara B. Tara writes, to the honorable justices and the lily livered bailiff. I don't know what that means, but maybe I drink too much water. I present the case of that one weapon break. My D&D group is playing Balthars Gate, descent into Avernus, and our currently level six and in hell. Our DM has ruled that after a net 1 on an attack roll, your weapon will start to crack and with a second net 1, unless your weapon is magical, your weapon will break and be unusable.

It's hardcore. Only 2 out of 4 melee characters have magic weapons so far. I didn't put up too much of a fight, but this campaign is very fight heavy with us, often having 4-8 encounters a day. I argued that they should at least average to one weapon break per day as we're continuously rolling attacks and we're in hell where there's not a ton of sword shops around. So far only our barbarian has had to surrender his great axe and resort to a measly mace, but I fear our paladin will soon join him and have to take a perspare javelin.

Ultimately, it's up to the DM and I don't think it will have that great of an effect on us, other than us looting absolutely every corpse we can find for weapons, but I ask the court, should two net ones result in a weapon breaking? I await your wise judgment. Have you ever heard of this before? I think it's a fun way to have to do-

To do breath of the wild. To do breath of the wild. Yeah, yeah, it definitely does remind me of Breath of the Wild. I think that it would not be the worst if your DM was also throwing weapons along the way. Sure, yeah. Or if you could repair them. I think one of the weird,

it's weird that it's not mentioned that like you could roll a not one one time and your weapon kind of gets fucked up and you can't fix it. Yeah. It just seems like also why two rolls, like make it a death save thing. Like if you like get like three nat ones,

your weapon shatters or something like that, it just seems weird that it's two. That just like bumps me for some reason. But you're definitely right, Murf. Like this should be a hindrance during one battle and like when you take a long rest, you can like reforge your sword or something like that. Yeah, I guess, I guess if you're making this like hardcore or something,

and you want to say that like on a nat one, something really bad happens, I think that's fine. And the idea of somebody rolling two nat ones on attack rolls in the same battle, and having your sword shatter or something like that is fine. But I think, I think where my beef, where my beef lies is that you can't repair it between fights. Yeah. We got beef, we got tweaks. Murph is breaking out the whole arsenal this episode.

I'm here for it. Beef and tweaks. It's the new cheese and beef. It's a good combo. It's a good combo. It's a good combo. My favorite British show, Beefy Tweakers. For some reason, it made me visualize a beef and twix.

Like, swivel. Like, just one of the twix is replaced by a log of beef. New points. New beef and twix. Left twix is now beef twix. Which one we're not saying. They're both covered in chocolate. I think once a full of caramel and nuget,

one is full of beef. Surprise beef. Chocolate covered beef long. I'm actually fighting into a two X and it's just being a sausage. So my God. If I knew it was coming, I could absolutely get on board. But if I didn't, that's an awful experience. I think it'd be cool.

It's like the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory golden ticket thing, but you have to eat it to find out if you got the beef. If you get the beef tics, you can actually order the tics factory to see where they make the beef. Congratulations, my boy. You've got a beefy twist. Charlie and the chocolate factory really made people think that factories were cooler than they were.

Yeah, that's true. Yeah, I don't think many factories have a magical tunnel that you can go through where the owner is going to sing you a song. There's no kaleidoscope tunnels in most factories. Maybe Frito Le has one. I don't know. It's tough because I feel like this DM is really wants to play like a hardcore, just scraping your knuckles for every victory you can get sort of game. But gosh, it seems so hard to balance that and still have fun. And it seems like they're

really not having fun. Yeah, that's what I got from this from this note is that it sounds like you and the other players aren't having fun. And I just think that most DMs would like to work with you to come up with something that was more fun to play. Yeah. And so like if it's a matter of they want it to be really hard, like maybe you can kind of say to them, like, it's taking a little bit of the fun out for me. Is there like something we can come up with, like, we can repair them? Or, like, we have an idea of, like, or we can learn how to repair them?

Or, we have an idea of, I don't know, even just, like, I kind of wish that this DM would just put more cool weapons in your way. Yeah, it's, it's Baldur's Gate, it's, um, just into a furnace. I feel like, Murf, isn't that where you pulled some of the, like, cool war machines from? Yeah. So there's definitely, like, t furnace. I feel like, Murf, isn't that where you pulled some of the cool war machines from? Yeah.

So there's definitely like tinkerers and like weirdos that could sell you a sword down here. Yeah, I would think so, but also like, I don't know. It also be sick in the middle of battle to just like be fighting someone with a really like a better sword than you and if they came up with mechanics for you to try to steal that sword.

Yeah. From them, like that seems, that seems like the fun outcomes of this kind of restrictive role. Part of me feels like our suggestions here are what the DM is hoping for. I think so, that's what I wonder. Yeah, they want the player to find an in-game solution in-game, I would challenge this player

to have fun at the table and trying to solve this thing that the DM is thrown at. Yeah, I get it though, because it's like when you add realism to campaigns or when you add like consequences like this, it should kind of be done in the name of realism. And I don't think that it's very realistic. I think it's actually like cartoonishly against the players to be like every 20 times you swing your sword, one time you do something that's gonna break it or badly damage it.

That's pretty crazy and pretty unrealistic. Yeah, I don't know, in a world of like dragons and stuff, it's kind of weird to be like swords are worse here. I guess I would need to know, like is this DM trying to say this is for this whole campaign, or is this DM just in a vernis? That's fair.

They said magical weapons don't get damaged like this. So there is hope for the future. That's kind of the other thing I take umbrage with is it seems like two of the players already have magical weapons. So that is fucked up. Yeah, that is unfair. I feel like if you're all leveling at the same rate, you all get your magic weapons at the same time

and this isn't a big deal. Like maybe this seems like it should be like one. It's okay to stagger them a little bit. That's true, that's true. But we don't know how many games, how many sessions they've played or any of that kind of stuff. That one's, that doesn't pass a smell test to me. That's a little dicey.

Jake, I really like that you're trying to give the DM a little credit and say that the players need to like solve this puzzle on their own, but yeah, I don't know. There's a bit of a stink here. It's a bit of a poo poo odor in the air to me. Yeah, there's some duty here for sure. You should just be able to repair it.

It should be like, yeah, your blade is dulled by this fight because like you swung and you kept hitting shields or something like that. Yeah. Yeah. Like a minus two or something. It feels almost like this, the DM is trying to put stakes on every single role. Like you roll a one and something could happen to your, but I don't think this actually

makes a game much more interesting. I would rather be like focused on am I killing monsters? Are we doing stuff? Not like is my gear breaking? The idea though. I think it's only fun for me if you're also giving the monsters they fight cool weapons and it has become breath of the wild.

Like you're always trading out weapons. Like oh, and you can like find a bunch of random different weapons. Like that's always fun in a battle when you're like, what is the enemy holding? They're like, oh, they have a cool ass sword. It's like great. That's my goal for the day.

Yeah. I don't mind the two net ones in a single fight breaking your weapon though. Like something something about it just being like, yeah, if you get a Natt one, your sword's just fucked up forever until you get in your next fight and then it shatters. Okay. That bumps me. So it seems like we're going to have to give this DM a little bit of a talk into, huh? Yeah, we're gonna say that the computer that they plan their sessions on, every time a NAT one is rolled, they have to smash the keys with their fist

and then every time, and then when the second NAT one comes, they have to throw out their whole laptop. Whoa. We're adding a durability rating to your laptop. To your computer. Wow. And here's the thing, once your laptop breaks, you have to go out into the world and find a strong enemy with a better laptop and defeat it in the world.

You can't just steal one from the Apple Store. The idea of being at a coffee shop and being like, that laptop is a plus two laptop. My laptop's only a plus one laptop. Just a trick, a fucking linole from Breath of the Wild just typing the coffee shop. One of those big fucking synth art dudes from Breath of the Wild is right here. I need that laptop to build the fucking

Savage Barbarian armor. Holy shit, is that an external hard drive? I cast Hunter's Mark. You would challenge me for my A-Social laptop. I guess I'm gonna go ahead and do one more. Yeah, yeah. And I'll actually hit you with a dice, Christ confession. Oh my goodness.

So let us don our priest, Robes, and the stained glass. The sun shined through the stained glass of the courtroom. No, they do smell a little bit like the fish still, Baylif. Yes. James L writes, this is a diced, Christ confession. Forgive me, high priest, Murphy,

Axford, Tanner, and also the other guy. What the fuck, I didn't say that. Ah! Ah! I didn't know I had low status here also. For I have sinned, I was playing my high elf paladin named, oh, Binky Fiasco. Oh. Oh.

We were in an endless forest and our party were all separated when I came across a banshee. Being a cocky bitch, I tried to fight it solo, but was hit with a once a day spell which made me unconscious. While rolling my death saves, I was using a particular D20 when I got to one pass and two fails. In a moment of weakness and panic, I swapped my D20 D20 I had been using which got two successes, meaning I would have lived. My life hasn't been the same since and I miss Binky every day. Please forgive me.

Wait, so the thing that they feel bad about is that they were using one D20 and then switched to another. They're saying they didn't trust Dice Christ. They moved to a different point. They tried to switch a different die in rotation. That is kind of interesting. That is kind of interesting because sometimes when they roll the dice rolls low,

you're like, oh shit, that means that you're gonna roll high soon. Yeah, yeah. I think the dice Christ, this is harsh, but I think the maybe dice Christ was ready for you to play a new character. I think dice Christ sets you on this rocky, viny barbed path because they knew

that you could pull through and make a new kick-ass character. Binky found their way to dice-crest. Oh, that is true. It was time for Binky to come home. It was time for Binky to go home. Maybe dice-crest wanted Binky for themselves. Maybe dice-crest is currently playing Binky. Yeah, Binky's like an old star character.

That's a great way to think about it. So like, Binky's out there running adventures and Dice Christ is the player. Wow, and that's where Binky's highest honor. Yeah, well, there's actually, there's an old saying for this, which is that I saw two Dice rolls in the sand. Uh-huh. The one was going a little further than the other one.

Uh-huh. And you looked up to Dice Christ and you said, why is there only one role at this one part? Did you leave me and Dice Christ was like, no, that was me rolling for you. There's also, yeah. So those extra roles was Dice Christ rolling for you. There's also the phrase,

binky take the wheel. Yeah, that's right. Yes, those were binkies. Is in, when you're not controlling life, you can just be like, binky take the wheel. Yeah. Those were binky's roles for initiative in their new campaign in,

do you have a bow? When dice Christ closes a door, they take a binky. And when they take a binky, what's that binky's gone? They're gonna give you something new new because the door that they closed before it's open again. And then dice-crissed dough about the window with your binky.

But it's okay because there's a knock at the door. And what's that? Oh, it's your fresh new character that you came up with. And that's why there was one set of footprints. All right. I'm just gonna grab this episode. That was red from Scripture. Yeah. And that's why there was one set of footprints. All right. I'm just gonna grab a separate one.

That one read from scripture. Yeah, that was a word for word. That was in the book. And actually in the Old Testament, dice, Christ says, Boruchetta, Arunoi, L.O.P. And you know, I'll finish it on the short rest actually. So you gotta come more lead on over there.

on the on the short rest actually. So you got to come more lead on over there. Sweet. I was going to say so ordered because the church in state is just so combined at this point. But so ordained. So ordained. So ordained. Sweet, thank you guys all so much for listening.

Does anybody have anything they'd like to plug? Sure. Do, man, man. Our shows in Dallas and Austin are less than a month away. Yeah, they're coming up. And also, we can confirm that the shows will be different. So if you are thinking, yeah, if you go into one and you're like, I wanna go to both,

but I'm scared they're gonna do the same thing twice. We are not. We're gonna do different stuff. Yep, first gonna DM one, and then we're just gonna play Bohumia Episode 75 live on stage for the other one. But I'm gonna dance too. What was that?

Yeah, me too, cartwheels. I'm gonna dance for an hour straight. We are so bad at blogging things. Our shows are gonna be good. Come see the shows. The shows are gonna be good. Yeah, what Paul just said is not what's gonna happen. Yeah, right.

Go to full shows. We'll also play a different show. Yes. I would love to plug some stuff from our PO box. If that's okay. Now, is that all right? Can I do that? No, dude.
