LOVE that the consensus on this one is that Andy is the one who really wants to eat garbage
Art imitates life or whatevet
Why do all Andy's characters eat literal garbage. The just eat trash. First Skrimm and now Torbek. Just literal trash
I believe the consensus was that 5 rouges with short bows, given enough arrows, space to run, and a headstart, could beat 100 gorillas by firing at them from a distance and then bonus action dashing away so that the gorillas never got within range to throw rocks at them. The whole thing was like when you ask a guy what animals he could take in a fight, but nerd version. They literally talked about this for 32 minutes.
Alright I missed most of the pre session chat, why were people talking about jars and gorillas?

I know it's been several days since sdr, but I just want to point out that none of it is any less real. Look me in the eyes when I tell you that every story is entirely made up and just because it isn't canon doesn't make it any less real. I have been in the Marauders fandom for years. Do you think I care what's canon? Just because s1 isn't part of the canon storyline can't erase that the story was told and lived and loved. You can still go back and watch it whenever you want. It's still there, and a story within a story is just as real to us as the story itself.
And honestly? I'm not too sad about the whole thing. Was Leboosh one of my favorite characters, and one that I will deeply miss not seeing in the same way again? Yes, of course. But I'm also excited for a new storyline with Ziggy and to have Derek playing a character that he feels fully happy and comfortable with. I think Leboosh did well in emotional scenes, but if Derek didn't feel connected to the story on the way he wanted to be, he's the one playing and he should be having fun, and if everyone is having fun it will be more fun to watch.
Also a part of me is just excited that Pyke is alive. I don't think I could have dealt with a full season of Rett missing Pyke and having a crew that was just Rett, Leboosh, and Chuckles. Like, I love those characters, but of the others are all gone and 2/3 of the party feels trapped by who they're playing, how fun will it be?
aldo, tell me the everyone leaving and then Mace alone and then Pyke reading with him wasn't gut wrenching and cool af.
TL,DR: I will miss the old characters and I realize that this means we won't get anymore of the old SDR, but I think this was the right choice for everyone to have fun and make this campaign the best that it could be
I've learned many things from watching Legends of Avantris. How to play D&D, the importance of friendship and what makes good story telling. But the most important thing I've learned is that the #1 cause of death over 40 is accidents.
If you think about it, their names are Michael, Richard, Nicole and Andrew, and I think Mace is short for Mason? I guess Derek is just Derek. Wild to think about though
I had a terrifying thought what if Mikey and Rich's real names are actually Michael and Richard??
Wouldn't that be fucked up or what?
I feel like in Icebound the Avantris crew is just slightly less chaotic than, say, OUAW or Uprooted, but then they get kidnapped by Ogres and immediately decide to convince them they're gods from Ogre Heaven and come up with elaborate names and titles. I'm still in shock that Andy, after missing the previous session, wakes up as Skrimm and immediately ALSO tries to convince the ogres that he sees that he's a god, but with far less luck. How did they ALL do that?
