Humor, jokes, memes about TTRPGs
Shout-out to the time I said an NPC was a bugbear but I forgot that he was actually a half orc and when the players found him at the next session, they took it in stride and pretended none of their character knew what a bugbear actually is and were like "Is bugbear a slur for half orcs?" In character and the consensus was that it is.
He's half orc, but the half that is orc is facing you right now
This is too real.
Also, if an NPC’s name is “uhhhhhh, Bob?”, he probably is not a meaningful part of the adventure.
Uuuh... Jim once became the BBEG in a story arc I GMed in masks.
I set myself the challenge that whoever the Bull character first selects as their rival will somehow be one of the main bosses of the first storyline.
So they chose the random security guy named Jim who was tasked with watching the group during prep for a press event.
So J.I.M. was born. Juggernaut infiltration Mercenary program made by some lex Luther type ceo to create super soldiers. And Jim was one of them gone rogue.
It's an adventure the group still remembers very fondly.
Minor Critical Role Campaign 4 Spoilers (just the race of one of the PCs)
At first, the Critical Recap entry for campaign 4 episode 1 called Liam's character a half-orc while Liam himself said he was an orc at the beginning of campaign 4 episode 1. It was fixed in a day or so (Liam's character is a full-blooded orc), but for a bit there, it was in question.
I didn't even realize they had started Campaign 4. I sort of gave up on Critical Role partway through Campaign 3. Things started to drift from feeling like friends playing a game and having fun to friends making a production, at least for me personally. How is it?
One-drop rule applies to Orcs. Half orc is still an orc.
