I'm not a dad, but this is the kind of humor I use. I love wordplay. My group has enjoyed it, and usually join in, as long as I don't go overboard. In fairness though, I'm not the DM, so a few jokes wouldn't be worthy of "ruining" (improving) a campaign that much.

@@d3ath166 , Do you remember every name of every quest giver you have encountered? That is what the Storyteller was banking on.... A good storyteller, throwing more then a single quest at the party such as this one did, could easily get said party to forget the name of a quest giver. Often this is a problem for Storytellers, for players will not remember contact so-and-so, or critical item X that was picked up back at the start of the dungeon, till you remind them they already know the solution to the problem. In this case, O.P. simply exploited that phenomenon for the long-joke, and did so marvelously. By using a different name for a wight, the storyteller allowed for there to be a significant amount of time between the two pieces of information. This is the key to pulling off something like this, you need to have enough time to allow the average person's brain to throw out the critical information as just another piece of 'useless fluff' that isn't important to the plot. As long as the Storyteller didn't refresh the players memory by dropping such obvious names more then once... yeah, I can see a party not being able to put 2 and 2 together until the very end. We got the 5-minute condensed version of this story, and a warning there was a pun... so figuring it out was easier.

OH hush to the dissenters. This is a brilliant lead up to an amazing joke. Throw your party a magic item or something at the end of it and bask in the greatness of this dad joke. Puns are not supposed to illicit laughter and appreciation. They are supposed to illicit rage, and pained groans. More importantly, this is a moment that will be remembered for YEARS and will become an inside joke. Honestly, sometimes you need to subvert your parties expectations to encourage greater creativity too.

@@CritCrab Exactly, and that's what makes it such a good joke. It's not in the moment funny, but you tell me if you can't get that party 5 years later to howl dying when you say "two wongs can never make a wight." That is the true victory of this joke. Additionally I strongly belive that if you don't love puns, you don't like language. Puns are so deeply built into language that every language has one. I think there is one about Cats that also somehow works in five languages. Where do cat's go when they die? Purrgatory. ¿dónde van las gatos cuando mueren? Purgatorio

"I am Sha Na the Song Witch, and these are two of my sisters, Hosan Na the Sky Witch and Nanana Na the Air Witch. You say you are stranded here?" "Yes, our ship sank. Is there any who we could talk to about acquiring another ship?" "Our brother Banan could help you for he owns a fine ship and looking to hire a new crew. We do not know where he is just now but our sister Tu might know." "Your sister Tu?" "Yes Tu- Tu Na. She's a Sand Witch."

I once ran a Barovian campaign taking place a hundred years after Strahd's defeat. The new vampire lord in the region was Sibella von Zarovich, who was served by a gnome mummy named Tanis as her crypt keeper, and a halfling werewolf named Winona controlled the local pack in her name. A ghost that called herself Phantasma lurked around the ruins of the village of Barovia, carrying the secrets of Sibella's origin, while a flesh golem called Elsa had been seen in Krezk. However, a company of paladins, the Knights of Calloway, had established a base in the valley, and sought to depose Sibella after learning of her from a skittish low level wizard named Norville the Shaggy who traveled with a pair of Blink Dogs, although one was only a pup. So yes, the entire campaign was built around a giant reference to Scooby Doo and the Ghoul School.

I once had my Bard reminiscing with the party around a campfire. I still remember the story he told. "Traveling through these plains in this wagon... it reminds me of my uncle Richard. He was an adventurer as well, at first. He was a wizard, an illusionist, but after the first few adventures, he decided that it was more fun and more rewarding to go into smuggling. "He would guide caravans of wagons across the plains, carrying illicit magical items, sneaking them into the cities under the noses of the guards. It became like a game to him, to see how big a shipment he could hide in the 'official' cargo of food, clothing, or occasionally even weapons for the army, and go undetected. "Now the guards, they always knew he was a scoundrel, but because of his skill with illusions they never did find evidence of his smuggling. Because they could not catch him in the towns, eventually they resorted to sending agents out onto the plains to infiltrate the caravans, to find his smuggled cargo when his guard was down, but Uncle Richard was too sneaky for them. Being guards, they never could resist the desire to carry their batons, the symbol of their authority, so he could always tell an infiltrator by the truncheon he carried. Eventually, he even researched a special 'detect truncheon' spell to make it that much easier. He was a very clever man, Uncle Richard. "Eventually, after many years, he retired to the coast, having become quite wealthy over the years from the revenues of his amusing game of truncheons and wagons."

I had a friend in college who did something similar. He turned in a 10 page short story for a creative writing class about a cowboy and his horse. The first 8 pages were nothing but details on their long history together, how the horse was always a dutiful partner on the trail, and how deep their bond grew over the years. One day, the horse steps in a hole and breaks its leg. Realizing he has no choice but to put the beast down, the cowboy struggles to muster the nerve to shoot his friend, heartbroken at the prospect but desperate to spare the creature pain. Just as he manages to cock the hammer and place his sixgun against the horse's head, one of the other trailhands rides up and asks what happened. Tearfully, the cowboy turns to the trailhand and utters the last line of the story, "He's fallen and he can't gettyup."

I'm reminded of a Shadowrun session I ran. The players were contracted to retrieve a focus from a magician that owned an apartment building. Said magician lived in the penthouse and kept the focus in their Lodge, at the very tippy-top of the building -- hermetic mages love their wizard's towers and all. So, the player infiltrate, dressed as janitors, and blend in seamlessly with the workers. They begin searching for a discreet place for their own wizard to knock out and astrally project to get a good measure on security, and the Adept (this 'ninja') finds a small, cramped, neglected closet. An electrical closet, if the hardware on the wall is to be believed. With only one problem. The room was crawling with constructs. Little skeletal hands poking and prodding at everything around. Adept proceeds to smash the ever-living out of the hands and doesn't even have to roll -- they buy the hits to grind the hands into bone powder. When they destroy the second to last hand, and there's only one left, I describe how suddenly, unceremoniously, all the lights in the building snap off. Security starts searching for the players, and the atmosphere becomes tense before eventually turning into a running firefight. Players retrieve the focus, barely dodge a couple of nasty Wards, and extract when the rigger (Drone operator/driver), has the foresight to call their buddy with a helicopter to hot exfil them from the roof. All very dramatic. The Adept confronts me after the session, asking if I jsut got bored with the infiltration game and I could have just said something. With a grin, I mentioned that no, they had the power to prevent security being alerted all along. It boils down to the electrical closet, and the hands. After all, didn't they know...

XD this is funny as heck! I'm no DM, but I would do this if I ran a campaing, no lie! As soon as the pun was spoken, I yelled "Oh, for God's sake!!" before laughing so hard I nearly fell out of my chair XD Great post, OP!

Notes from a NG human Idiot; Greetings from lovely Restenford(we're preparing to head to gater supplies tomorrow, so we're quite busy here....)! As an Upper Noble, your job involves building tense moments & world-shaking events. As a parent, your job is to make certain your child/children have an entertaining time at anything they do. As much as some people may dislike what he did, anyone that's a parent will know exactly why OP did it. My father once told me(back when i was still young & full of adventure) "Never forget to bring a little humor with you when you go places, it brighten's up an otherwise boring world." May your pantheon ever favor you(especially in these trying times), Baron Trevelyan of Restenford

Brings back memories. I ran a long lasting campaign in a homebrew world with a story that I put everything in all based around a magical entity called "The Shaft" having their power sucked dry by "The Hole" it was a campaign based entirely on a dick joke that my friend made while talking about his mineshaft while we were playing Minecraft. It was beautiful

I was going through my friends miniatures and noticed the base had snapped off of a beautifully painted knight with his boots still attached to the miniatures stand. I turned to my friend, 'Aw? What happened to this guy?' He looked me dead in the eyes and with a heavy sigh replied, "He had been...." I waited with furrowed brows and stared at the beautifully painted knight in one hand, his sword still held high despite his base and feet in my other hand. He loudly declared with ultimate finality, "DEFEATED!" I punched him in the face on the spot and he's doing at least 10-20 in the punitentiary for his grievous crimes.
