A Fête Worse Than Death | Oxventure D&D | Halloween Special 2021

[@colinbaker5306]

I love how Jane/Prudence is constantly clutching Dob's lute throughout the episode, like she doesn't know how to hold it properly, but knows it's important to Dob so doesn't want to break it

[@MrGoremuffin]

IMO Prudence's clothes aren't itchy but Dob feels like they do cuz he is not used to have a clean and sensitive skin 😂

[@tristanwright960]

Remember when Corazon found out that they were solid gold coins and not just gold plated

[@jerrybrim5915]

Luke, as Prudence, is the manifestation of "Drive it like you stole it"

[@macgyver42563]

I'm pretty sure if Dob got Egbert's body, he would be trying every single spell that the paladin has in his arsenal.

[@tylermurray2191]

Every time I watch this, all I can see is Dob wanting to push all the warlock buttons while trying to have all of his bard spell spots. Like Luke was having way too much fun as an evil character with evil spells.

[@the_blind_scout]

Prudence's rage stems from never having used fabric softener.

[@VivaLaDnDLogs]

This remains one of the best live shows of all time. Everyone rolled with each other's characters brilliantly, but special recognition to Ellen for going above & beyond in nailing Corazon! Confident Merilwen/Ellen is a treasure I never realized I needed.

[@micahnewby7964]

For real. I thought she wouldn't be able to top drunk Merilwen, but here I stand corrected

[@LeylaYazgan-k5i]

“That was bespoke!” Corazon screamed, running towards an out of control rapier hurtling through the air. Smartest decision he’s ever made.😅

We never did find out what spell Andy discovers Mike has never mentioned at 15:44

[@Medaumplay3]

I have a feeling it's dimension door, but they did a better joke with that one later.

[@consolescrub4031]

9 months late (there's a joke I won't go into there) but is it specifically a spell? My bet would be it's the protection fighting style which he had since level 2. I believe Egbert has level 1 and 2 spells so it could have been ensnaring strike from the ancients list or possibly locate object from the level up videos. If we were to assume he had more spells than we know it's probably something like lesser restoration. My order of events is off but I think by this point the gang has seen Egbert use both his channel divinity options, moonbeam, misty step, find steed and zone of truth along with divine smite so it's presumably something else. It might even be that silent image spell Johnny let him have in the first recorded level up.

[@christyencremins7676]

@@christyencremins7676 He was going to use Nature's Wrath during the Gnome Sweet Gnome adventure (with the kobolds and the mind flayer) and he used the smite with his flame breath to cremate M Channail, I believe in Plunder Siege.

@@consolescrub4031 I really don’t remember him even mentioning it during gnome sweet gnome, nor do I remember him using smite to cremate Channail, but to be fair I haven’t watched Play Fight anywhere near as many times as I’ve watched the rest of the episodes.

[@GoVocaloider]

15:00 This was such good acting, I was howling with laughter! Honestly, even if you look at moments just before she spoke like at 14:30 and14:38, her posture and the way she was holding out her hand reminded me of the countless times I've noticed Corazon's multitude of rings precisely because of how he holds up his hands.

[@TheAngelScorn]

"Dob" doing the apple bobbing, using sleight of head. It's a good job Johnny didn't ask if they have proficiency in head...

[@nahuelmat]

I mean, Dob is a bard...

[@SolaScientia]

I've been watching these in order (i'm late to the party) the past week and I definitely swore when Luke as Prudence decided to cast summon greater demon since actual Prudence hasn't ever done that previously. Really loving this one, and I do love them all. I love Luke and Andy looking through the paladin stuff and being confused and also unsurprised that Mike doesn't really read any of it, or use any of the magic he can do.

[@WillsBeard]

Luke/Dob is the living embodiment of every player that refuses to read what their spells or abilities do and never understands how they work

[@nahuelmat]

Mike with Egbert knows EXACTLY what his spells do, and refuses to use them. The exact opposite lol

[@typacsk]

46:36 It's a lovely morning in the village and you have summoned a horrible goose.

[@mysteriouscolours1532]

Why do I suspect Johnny planned something very different

[@Storyman09]

Speaking as someone who’s DM’d a few times, you usually do plan something and it usually ends up pretty different, going sideways preeeeeeetty quickly XD

[@EuanFoulis]

@@Storyman09 lol- same- it’s gotten the point I’ve stopped planning outside of a very rough outline

[@caseybaker7935]

You mean he didn't plan for a boss fight against a gigantic swan shoved into the middle of the funny bodyswap stealth mission?

[@AngryAragami]

I still find it funny how Andy also gave up on being a paladin (There was a minor snafu in that Johnny apparently doesn't know that Fiend is an umbrella term encompassing Devils, Demons, Daemons, etc. but Johnny still let Andy roll so its fine), and just went back to being Corazon.

[@omni-nerdno7191]

There's quite a few rules Johnny doesn't really know

[@torgranael]

Was seeing if the duck fight happened to fall on one hour irl (which would have been hilarious if timed right). It didn't, but that single throwaway line took 40 minutes of the session. That is one of the most spectacular derailings I've ever seen. 🤣

[@owenjames8575]

i wish i could be half as happy playing my characters as ellen is to be playing corazon

[@davidhand9721]

I really really prefer the non-live sessions. It pushes Johnny into a lot of fudging for time and undermines the sense of narrative that made the last season unique.

[@KieranBarnbyAcoustic]

That whole death thing is fairly simple - if a body is killed, the body and spirit inside it die. So egbert's body and corozon's spirit would be gone, but egbert's spirit would still be in Merilwyn's body, and Merilwyn's would still be in Corozon's so she could get her body back, but Egbert would never be dragon born again - he would either be a woodelf or human for the rest of his life unless he managed to trick Shattershield. But yeah, only one of them would need to die. There would be no "everyone dies except one husk" scenario.

[@No_Name_Provided]

29:58 Fun fact: green dragon's live in forests, and their favorite prey is elves. They're also the most manipulative dragons, occasionally going so far as to feign capture while they evaluate (and manipulate) their would-be captors. This does not bode well for Elfbert. 37:33 Further fun fact: green dragons sometimes stalk prey for days, planning the perfect assault. 41:50 Here's another fun fact: When outmatched, green dragons will pretend to back down and move on... while secretly nursing a grudge for decades, waiting for the moment they can swoop in and take vengeance. TLDR: If Johnny doesn't use this dragon for something, then he's really wasting an opportunity. 48:42 Why roll for initiative? What Prudence can summon, Prudence can *Banish* .

[@pinkcowqueen]

In regards to the last one, Prudence has two spell slots. The first one was used for Spider Climb at the start, the second for the summoning. So no spell slots left

[@No_Name_Provided]

@@pinkcowqueen That's true. At the time, I had trouble believing they were counting silly joke uses of spells as, well, actual canon. That said, I believe Banish is also on the paladin spell list... which would be useful if Egbert prepared spells. On a related note, it's cool that Prudence can summon _and_ banish a demon once per short rest (ie, once an hour). I wonder if she ever cuts loose and spams the combo?

[@bustinarant]

​@@No_Name_ProvidedIt would have been nicer to fake a fight with rather than when they helped Johnny's self- insert fake a resume by fighting her demon summon lol

[@domihase8148]

I liked the new group dynamic. It just would have been nice, if Dob (as Prudence) would be more blood thursty. But his demon summoning was quite on point. 😂😂
