East coast sun tree vs West coast sun tree

[@kingmidas2112]

Underrated comment

[@DiMono]

At 2:45 you can see the precise moment when Taliesin came up with his line, and how proud he was of himself for it. And we are proud too.

[@magiv4205]

Omg that's adorable hahaha

[@thecircuitjerk1685]

Matt's face when he says "I'm a tree of the sun." It's like the most epic New York 'Fuck You' of all time.

[@ronin7997]

3:39 - Taliesin Jaffe, ladies and gentlemen!

[@Freirelucass1]

I commend Matthew for being able to keep a straight face during that whole conversation with Keyleth. Seriously, I can not watch that without laughing every damn time!

[@bcn1gh7h4wk]

I worked at a small store, where all kinds of people would come... people who knew exactly what they wanted, and people who couldn't decide on the color of their shoe laces. for these people,.... I developed a very thick skin.

[@nekoali2]

That time when you have to think "So... What kind of accent would a tree have?"

[@unvoicedapollo3318]

And then 2 years later you find out the accent of crabgrass

[@estoy1001]

As Sprigg said: You don't talk to a Sun Tree, you listen to a Sun Tree.

[@damiensmidt6708]

And thus Beau was born!

[@bloooddmooonn]

Damiën Smidt lol

[@RgScorpio]

3:39. Not gonna lie, that was a damn good joke.

[@torqidriots7929]

Kashaw is the equivalent of a Natural 1 amiable tree

[@TheRealMichaelH]

Amicable.

[@Arkatox]

They're synonyms.

[@johnr797]

@@TheRealMichaelH pick your term

[@TheRealMichaelH]

@@Arkatox Did you even watch the video…? And if you're wondering why I'm replying to you three years later, blame John R. _He_ replied to _me_ three years later, thereby bumping the thread, but at least he got the joke. Unlike you.

[@Arkatox]

@@TheRealMichaelH I apologize for what apparently went over my head 3 years ago. :P

[@rhylin26]

“Hey sun tree bro. Are you a sun tree bro?” XD

[@falcychead8198]

The encounter was not without profit. We now know there are ley lines between Whitestone, Berkeley and Queens.

[@markuskeler758]

Taliesin‘s one liners are as always top notch This tree definitely casts some shade :D

[@chaospatriot76]

As a New Yorker, we hereby declare Asshole Tree an honorary citizen

[@josephmort4039]

This is the Whitestone Sun Tree's disappointing brother who never lived up to their parent's expectations.

[@Hawkwinter01]

The voice of the Sun Tree, so good. Puts me in mind of Miracle Max from the Princess Bride. 🤣💖

[@MorganneLee]

is this kashaw in tree form??

[@foolbrightw6589]

so kash does grow on trees

[@ClandestineSnowman]

"YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

[@MassiveFoot29]

foolbright w Wonderful

[@tadious9415]

Natural 1's on information checks are the best!

[@misc.3973]

YES... I loved dick tree, we need him as a recurring character :D

[@shadowX2121]

Best Character Ever!

[@Spacepoliceman]

All hail the shade tree

[@TheXenatron]

This. This is good dnd

[@NateD6547]

#ShadeTree

[@psv2]

Percy with the verbage! Poor Kiki, lol!

[@Connor-kh8sh]

2:13 best part

[@himboghost629]

I think you mean 3:39

[@kyleallen1442]

I think as a DM it's easy to play jerk characters, just recall how often the wizard doesn't know what he's doing when it comes to his turn in combat. Props to Matt :)

[@Graywolf335]

Kashaw Tree

[@semperludens9241]

Maybe I like Natural One Tree even better than Sun Tree, and that is saying something.

[@jalontf2]

I was hoping Grog would come flying in with an axe and chop the tree in half Then somewhere in another plane of existence the TF2 engineer screams, "Sun-tree down!!"

[@duckslapper12]

Natural ones aren't all bad.

[@redtippedthrobrobin6053]

Kashaw Tree! I love it

[@magiv4205]

I have found my new favorite Percy one-liner lmao

[@AmethystCruel]

Best NPC ever

[@Sky-ln1wg]

#DICKTREEFEELTHESHADE

[@cade11071994]

Grog ended up eating that fruit, and apparently it makes you not want to leave Elysium, if you fail the Wisdom Save. Anybody know what the Wisdom Save DC would be?

[@ninaianni3621]

Cade Escobedo I think it's 10

[@cade11071994]

Nina Ianni that's what I'm hoping for sense Grog rolled a 13 on it. I think 10 is the same dc for mental effects in other planes, so I'm hoping it's the same. Any higher and Grog's gonna have trouble making it.

[@ninaianni3621]

Cade Escobedo do you think that if grog succumb to the plane and didn't want to leave, mom pike could overrule it?

[@jesterericv2]

Yeah, when it comes to those environmental effects (Especially ones that can end a character or game) the DC is set between 8 and 12

[@pop-tartdepression393]

Nina Ianni definitely Mama Pikes mom look breaks all curses, charms and mental effects

[@Promance2300]

Matt is correct, "Amiable" is the better word choice

[@pauloskinner]

Shade tree is best tree

[@DuskWolf224]

That tree sounds like Kashaw

[@xmaly2856]

My one and only question: How the hell did this tree get into heaven? (the positive planes)

[@orrin2002]

That is where they are from, Pellor put the sun tree in wightstone presumably from these trees around he's home.

[@xmaly2856]

I know that. I'm simply saying something with that much shade in its heart surely doesn't belong in Elysium. Its like having a super asshole in Christianity's version of heaven.

[@antonionunez3759]

xMaly28 Lol

[@rubanthiruchelvanayagam818]

I think normally he wouldn't be so shade-y but Keyleth rolled a nat 1 so...

[@davidlundberg9924]

xMaly28 Well if you where minding your own business doing suntree things and a mere mortal comes up being rude and treeist you would be nice?

[@artygunnar]

I cant believe its been three years

[@wyrmfeast]

If Chris D'Elia was a Sun Tree.

[@lawrencealcantara]

i think i need an explanation on that shade joke... xD

[@ToabyToastbrot]

Just leaving a comment, need that too, pls :) (not a native speaker...)

[@cronotosaur2881]

The phrase "throwing shade" means talking trash about someone.

[@deffdefying4803]

To cast or throw shade means to make a snarky, jabbing remark meant to offend. In this case it was a pun using the literal definition of shade (i.e. cover from light) as a double-entendre.
