D&D Court: Dungeons, Doggos & DRAMA (w/ Aabria Iyengar)

Saw a clip of the final case posted on reddit and chicken lover gave an update in the comments, the DM was in fact a creep and op and his girlfriend left that group

Extra support for the wind wall judgement, see the 3.5 description: The wall is “of considerable strength. It is a roaring blast sufficient to blow away any bird smaller than an eagle…” and can block even ‘gaseous’ dragon breath! ‘Roaring’ is definitive, but blowing away birds is hilarious 😂

On the Bag of Holding nuke and its viability, in the days of 3.5 there was a fan-made shematic put together of a bag bomb arrow, where both bags were suspended facing each other, and when the arrow hits it would cause the bags to collapse into each other.

It's pronounced Luffy

bro said "i dont understand the fascination" about one of the most common house pets on the planet lmao

Yall for some reason i thought of a book when i heard the title

Might be my fav ep ever- its really great for introducing people to the idea of DND court!

As a Weezer fan, I approve of the d12 DND

Wish there was an update on the love confession

Caldwell's crone voice gives me life

I am listening so far after this came out, but couldn't you just ban dogs on mike? I mean, as a SERIOUS dog person, I wouldn't let my amazing and delightful pupper interrupt the scene, just as I wouldn't allow my adorable child to interrupt. Come on, folks. Just ban on mike interruptions, right? I wish people were more kind and sensitive.

Also as a dm with a service dog, who is thereby incredibly well trained, and quiet unless he’s telling me I’m about to have a seizure, which he also does quietly but will jump on me so I can take medication and lie down. As a dm who uses discord video, I think banning dogs from dnd is wild, so many cat butts right up against the camera. And that is the right of a cat as a chaotic good/neutral creature!! Cats can be on the camera, good luck getting them to stop, dogs can be on the camera, but interrupting the game, and turning on your sound just so people can hear a dog howl or whine is insane. Also it’s the kind of behavior a dog displays when it isn’t getting enough exercise or attention, take the dog for a walk out of the game.

I can see Murph petting a cat in an evil castle saying “the world wasn’t made for people like us.” Trying to seat a hero to join his side

That guy is being bullied by dog lovers get the dog out the game

I support Murph's stance on dog people just let cat people like cats in peace!

Don't ban dogs you'll be eaten alive, set up a time before or after the session for pet appreciation and ask that we keep pets from being a distraction during a session. Our game is irl and I've forced my best friend to push her dog off her lap because she was too busy talking to it to hear me say it was her turn. Also I don't like the idea of being dog or cat people I find it super strange. I like animals.

I hate to “um sweetie” Caldwell, but it’s pronounced Loo-fee not Luh-fee

I was in a similar situation where my partners character was in a relationship with a dmnpc. Now we have a Polycule.

Okay as not a dog person (tm) due to a dog tearing my arm open after they escaped a friend's house (I don't blame the dog, just was traumatic) I get that animals are cute and should be included sometimes. When my cats are doing something funny I would definitely mention it once or twice when appropriate HOWEVER if it's an intense scene I don't care if your cat has learned how to juggle bowling balls while singing ave maria it's not their time to shine

Sleeping in my hammock outside because I thought I saw Caldwell in my closet

The thought of opening the monster manual for a random familiar and getting a terrasque is so funny to me

Dog person here. Fuck that noise that’s so annoying, also hate the dog baby speak!

Hemp milk lore returns ❤️

Nat 12!

Aabria is a fantastic guest! I hope she comes into the campaign as a guest player.

Murph's voice at 1:02:27 killed me #cum

I do, however, have to admit I definitely let the cats get away with way more that I tolerate it with the dogs. One cat in particular helps deter people from leaving the table because she will take your seat if you get up. Replay next to a crackling fire in the fall and winter for the mood is always quite cozy ❤️

I was in a Home campaign that had two very active vocal Pomeranians. And I’m currently in a home campaign with two curious ginger cats. The Pomeranians would often get under foot, or more so under the table. The ginger cats will fight each other sometimes and then the game comes to a halt because the three people who live in the house are all involved in the game. We also have a player who will go find the angrier of these two cats, sit down at the table, and try to work some of these snarls out of the cats fur. He will eventually be bitten or scratched and bring the game to a grinding halt. But honestly I prefer him playing with the cats because he tries to solve every social interaction by threatening shopkeepers, guards, and monarchs with the use of the spell lightning bolt.

but then he failed so

Maybe I'm just a little freak but I interpreted the love confession differently. I thought he was holding himself accountable--making it so he really had to behave himself

As a dog person, I am mortified. This makes eating a rotisserie chicken on camera seem polite in comparison.

As a dog and cat person, I do admit there is a time and place for cute animals and virtual DnD is hard enough to manage without distractions.

I just did the random page Monster Manual companion check and I got an adult white dragon so I think this rule has some value

Also in fairness to Caldwell, I also do think that a Hotdog is a funny thing to spike with drugs but ofc only if you know about it hahaha

pretty pretty please can we get a Bonus Ep with Capture the Bag with maybe a bonus guest for even teams of 2????

Very grateful that we got the return of the hemp milk song today

I sometimes do xp because it makes my players excited to be able to see themselves getting closer to their next level. My recent campaigns have been pretty short, self-contained adventures though, so I haven't bothered

The preface works, everyone please don't @Caldwell. Off mic he just finished his dissertation on vibrational transmission through magical and non-magical mediums.

The Nat 1 and Nat 20 wedding roll was simply Dice Christ demonstrating the highs and lows of marriage.

Why babe 2, why not the wonderful 2009 "hotel for dogs"

I am a dog person. But I have a colleague who will, in the middle of a teams meeting, wander off and pick up their dog and start to stroke it and chat to it, on mic. Including during a disciplinary...no dogs at the virtual table and people who enable dogs at the table should go as well!
