[@clothar23]

I mean technically yes. But Bardic Inspiration does allow slightly better rolls. So really Sexy boy can use it up his chances at pickpocketing the key from the guard. Than use it to help his party succeed at the proceeding combat phase. It's not guaranteed success but these are murder hobos so they're at least good at fighting. So even a little push makes a difference.

[@MarcoSanchez.BajoTierraYPaso]

@@clothar23 but he cant use it on itself

[@clothar23]

@@MarcoSanchez.BajoTierraYPaso Depends on how you interpret the orginal text of Bardic Inspiration . It says " You can as a bonus action on your turn to choose a creature within 60 feet who can hear you. That creature gains one Bardic Inspiration die , a d6 . " It makes no mention of it having to be someone other than you. Since I would argue you're always within sixty feet of yourself. If we go with the revised D&D Beyond than yes. It specifically states it has to be someone else. Of Course a better counterpoint would be is that He's a College of Swords Bard . Since unlike say a College of Lore Bard he doesn't get acess to Peerless Skill which would let you add Inspiration die to your skill checks.

"I just temporized 6 seconds, so... FIREBALL".

[@TekayAuron]

I would absolutely watch a feature length film of this party. This _feels_ like the climax of a movie. The ragtag bunch of misfits are beaten and battered and down to their lowest point, but just when all hope seems lost, they rally together as a real team and make a triumphant comeback. The musical swell at 2:38 right as the big brawl breaks out gets me so hyped up, and both big fight sequences are so enjoyable to watch. The absolute best part for me, though, is everything starting at 4:17 with the gear up sequence up until the discordant singing gag. Just everything about that section meshes together wonderfully. I also enjoy how it seems like it's not only Antrius who has just now figured out how this whole "team" thing is supposed to work. Evandra actually abandoned a kill to protect her friends' backs from another attacker, and this might just be the most controlled I've ever seen Nixie's flames.

[@AuntLoopy123]

I would also watch a feature length film. I'd watch a whole TRILOGY of this party, as well as their guests (the cleric and Bob Ross the Barbarian are my favorites).

I'm especially proud of Nixxie's actor. Not only does she alter her voice for the role, she adds a heavy lisp which could have been disastrous, but it was really good :)

[@veermudambi5795]

[@Tioko]

[@daviddeceuster4230]

Antrius: "And Nixxie says concerning things." *1 minute later* Nixxie: "Screams can sound almost like applause." Yep, concerning is definitely an understatement.

[@Senok13]

Well, if it fits to the character she play, then a little bit of mental instability here and there could be counted as "good roleplaying", instead of being a a problem. I had once a dark elf Gunslinger (a subclass of the fighter), who has a pirate background, and some problem with drinking... That was the reason, why get stuck on the land, after his crew once needed to go in a hurry, while he was lying uncoscous in some tavern... I get a unique "feat" from our Dungeon Master for that: he get named "Alcoholic", given resistence any alcohol based poison or just hard liquor (he build up some tolerance towards them through the years), he he get disadvantage in dexterity, intelligence and wisdom checks, if he doesn't consumed the required amount of alcohol in the last 8 hours, thanks to the withdrawal symptoms. It was a part of the character, used both for comic relief reasons, and sometimes it was helpful in other situations too. (As an alcoholic, i always bring some bewerage with me in bottles, and when we needed to go into a tight cave, and our claustrophobic priest - obviously - didn't want to follow us, i had my "liquid courage" with me, to gave him enough bravery to defeat it's fear, and we were able to kill the monster in there. The problem was when he get sober up, and i had not enough drink to both satisfy my own thirstyness and get him drunk again, so our resident barbarian had to knock him out, to bring him back (the big cavern room was more acceptable to him, than the fissure itself, for what we needed to pass through to reach the outside, so he would stay there, if we let him).

[@Korlall]

This has to be the best comment of all the comments section.

[@azarinevil]

I mean as a DM with 27 years experience, Nixxie doesn't say anything I would call concerning. However one should take into account I've had a Druid at my table who talked about how good people tasted raw after putting the fear of bear in them, a necromancer who wrote their spellbooks on freshly peeled elf skin and would ask about every elf's skincare and quality, and worst of all the Barbarian with a genius intelligence who could do math, write a thesis, and raged because they didn't get into their wizard college of choice.

I can't stop thinking about this song. It's absolutely brilliant. Not only is the song a hit, but it does such a good job introducing the party, and it also cleverly weaves in the premise of 1 for All as a whole.
