I didnt like the dragon pussy thing because I study gender and thought it was gender essentialist, not cause it was sexual. naddpod is a lot more progressive and the same level of raunchy now so I enjoy current sex jokes more
Wow, same. I don't study gender, but I am trans, so it's always on my mind
I also really like using the sprite pact/promise to get QBCC out of the way without killing her. Most times an enemy combatant would totally swear to give up but the PCs can't enforce it, so they just wind up killing them. It's very fun to use the world in a narrative way to let them avoid just murdering everyone they see.
DON'T STOP TALKING TO BOOKVAR!!! I love him 🥰
Now I want to homebrew a Pact of the Sponge Warlock. SCRUB THE WORLD, MOTHERFUCKER!
#RestoreTheFartCut
I loved the dragon pussy/dick conversation in the beginning. It showed me how amazing this podcast would be and its not only lived up to but surpassed my expectations
Give us the sponge Robert one shot! So good 😂
For the resurrections, you may want to use something like in Eberron, where a resurrection can bring ghosts and undead from the plane of the dead.. randomly. It’d be fun in the middle of a combat.
Sorry to say that Bermuda grass is never going away
I am so happy I finally got to join the Patreon! These short rests are great.
Having just listened to the Short Rest I would like to say that I am totally down for the main campaign to go on hiatus for a few weeks again following the end of this arc so that the gang can play a side quest as bad guys in Eldermourne. Reaper's Creepers sounds fun as fuck. I don't know if Caldwell would step away again for a few more weeks of paternal leave, though I assume not, but it'd be cool to get a guest on for a few weeks for that short campaign, whether to replace someone or simply to join the full crew. Actually, it sounds kind of awesome to have a mini campaign of 2 to 4 episodes between every arc or three that someone else DM's each time. You could even get guest DMs like Brennan or Lou on, though I'd love for Jake to DM something on the pod too. Doing so would give Murphy time to plan out the bigger stuff in the main campaign pretty much anytime he wants, everyone would get to fuck around with weird builds they'd never play long term, they could do some fun world building etc. and I imagine Murph would enjoy playing a character for a few weeks every now and then; especially one he can haul in to the regular campaign as an NPC that he's built up as a player character if he wants.
caldwell be hitting different in eldermourne
whenever I talk to people about naddpod I say "they talk a lot more about dragon pussy in the first arc than anyone who's not a furry ever has, but they even out afterwards." I also love those jokes. I'm both people
Murph you should make a one shot where you have everyone’s wife
You guys are awesome
Zirk should get a defibrillator as his revivify
A rose for Jake for the best haunted deadpan delivery of “Curséd and yellow and porous is he” it made me laugh out loud
I love knowing that there were real stakes. Knowing that Murph was a turn from absolutely wrecking Zirk's shit really makes this episode shine
I love this crew. I never though I would get over loosing the first set of characters. Also, I was here for the immediate genitalia talk in episode one. That’s how I knew you were my crew!!! Keep up the nut cut.
Adding my vote that I'd love to see the reap creeps! Especially with another fun guest! I'm sure one of these days you'll get Beardsley in to guest (though the likely amount of goofs with them added to the team is daunting haha)
I could totally see Zurk as a bad McCree cosplayer w/ his cowboy hat & cape😂
No castration without representation! #NutsCut
If Murph had done the April Fools, it probably would not have turned out well. Remember what happened when SouthPark did that early on?
Murph you should release an unedited episode
SHank. bookvAR. spriTLE. SHARTLE
whenever i get a chance to go to a live show, i’m gonna hope the PCs are sponge robert, binky fiasco, and henriette the stripper
Omg i cant believe there was no rose given to bookvar's second crit for becoming the sapphire, so here's one from me 🌹
I love Tucker
Where my dragon pussy stans at??🙋♂️
SprinkVar the Voltron Familiar. Ball is in your court murph.
Murph didn't allow me to unbotton my top button before starting the ep. Requesting an edit so I can listen in comfort.
The Reap Creeps. I am so here for it. If y'all can figure out how to make Jake an evil Light cleric honestly I cant give this show any more support but dammit if I won't fucking try.
Murph introducing Eldermourne: "It's a gritty, serious, low magic world." Cast: "We all have bangs and short shorts."
RELEASE THE FART CUT
Honestly I wasn’t into D&D before the first episode of NaddPod and I loved the dragon pussy stuff. Also Murph forgets that in Trinyvale Onyx had sex in the technomech multiple times
Suggestion for resurrection: give them the "Doomed" debuff. Permanent fail on the Death Save. They were brought back before The Reaper could claim them, now he's paying attention.
Rope trip looks like such a fun spell.
Gotta say i was one of the people who was totally turned off by the dragon genital convo. I’m glad I came back, I obviously love the show. I am not even really bothered by raunchy comedy, just that convo was sooo crude. 😟😅 I also would have loved and loathed the April Fools’ Day prank.
So here for Spongerobert!
https://1000ballbearings.tumblr.com/post/183559334715/in-dnd-resurrecting-pcs-becomes-so-easy-at-higher this is a list I love of potential consequences for resurrecting someone, I think something like this could be interesting :)
I love you people
If Caldwell wanted to finally be a stealthy char, evil campaign with the Phantom subclass rogue would be dope with a grave cleric and narsty smites
*Always Sunny title music plays* Zirk pulls a gun on a fairy
Loved the Sander Cohen from Bioshock vibe from Ulwin. Nice twist. This whole episode was really awesome
I don't know if they read this, but I desperately hole they install that bag of holding inside Book'var. So they can open to a specific page and dump stuff in, or reach between the pages like the sorting hat in harry potter and pull something out of the pages.
Has anyone said the Bang Gang yet?
Bang Bros
Isn't Jake's Twitter profile picture over 10 years old? 😂😂😂
Re: detect thoughts- one of the pcs in my party can cast it at will (which is borderline dnd court I feel like), and it's INCREDIBLY helpful. You can use it for questioning, or reconnaissance (like recently we wanted to see if someone was telling the truth about not knowing a person, so we casually dropped their name while checking how the person mentally responded). It's v good for getting some kind of truth out of people who you don't trust!
Okay but if the Reap Creeps do happen, can Ally guest for the Dimension 20 crossover hat trick?
I would have absolutely lost my shit at the April fools episode. 😂😂😂 Would have been fucking hysterical Murph! Especially if you had gone to bed afterwards.
I bought early stock in the nut pop and it’s definitely paid off
It’d be so cool if once Henry finds his fairy he takes a level of fathomless warlock for that sea feel
Or maybe oath of the sea palidon
Release the fart cut, you cowards! 😂
RE : People who want to play pacifist DnD So many people don't seem to realize that DnD is one TTRPG among hundreds, and is definitely among the most combat oriented. The rules are neither realistic nor simple, they are made to provide satisfying battles. Pacifist TTRPG is a thing, just use the right ruleset.
Absorbert Squaredice: everything from his hit dice to damage is determined exclusively by d6s.
I think Jake drunkenly playing Jvelin would be a selling point for me in terms of a live show.
I don’t know if this idea has been thrown out there but what about NADDPOD bloopers. All the cut stuff maybe
Would buy a shirt that said "NADDPOD: Werewolves are always cool"
Light clerics are so cool, after the Hexbuds campaign I really wanted to create a Cindersworn type character.
Bring tucker on the pod!!!
What if we find out this is just Amir’s alter ego the whole time?
Absolutely fuck you for making me put off my groceries another hour to listen to this sweet 'sode
HONK
So stoked for this one! Such a great episode.
Honk honk
Yay !!
