[@Margar02]

Meanwhile Fjord's wisdom is like a 7 or something

[@LoogyHead]

During the end of VM he stepped out of character a lot to help strategize and ensure they didn’t go In without a plan. It’s worth pointing out that low stats don’t necessarily mean they have no specialty in some fields - e.g grog being low int but able to strategize before kevdak makes sense.

[@droidgeist]

Really? I find Fjord kinda bland compared to the others, so far. Aside from his relationship 'tutoring' Beau, he doesn't have much of a personality. He's just sorta... there. I'm sure that will change eventually though, because Grog was usually pretty great. I loved the childlike side of the brute.

[@droidgeist]

​@@LoogyHeadBeing able to strategize before Kevdak and the speech he gave after he was defeated was inconsistent with Grog's lack of smarts. Your character can be dumb and have a specialty within reason, like being a smithy who knows how to follow the same formula again and again, but being able to reason creatively and articulate eloquently requires higher intelligence than a 6.

[@cannonboy9315]

@@droidgeist well that depends more on what grogs other stats are and what the plan he made as well as the speech i havent watched VM but if his wisdom and charisma was decent then i could see him being able to do it while having a low int because in our own world he have people who are not super smart but can be very cunning and charismatic in terms of dnd int is more analyzing situations, their ability to memorize stuff, and reasoning. while wisdom is more of the coman sense and intuition and charisma is more the force of ones own personality and ablity to charm and be social. i dont know grogs stats but different groups do play different and playing exactly how your satats are is for some not fun.

On a rewatch as a DM, it's amazing how Matt introduced the Gentlement completely via indirect worldbuilding.

You may very well still be suspicious; you're just not able to sense any proof of your suspicions.

Preserved Zombie manticore head would be scarier then fresh

[@troodon1096]

@@ForeverDegenerate Gentle repose would work perfectly to buy them some time. But they should get rid of that head before it seriously starts to stink up the cart.

[@Zombiewithabowtie]

If they left it for long enough, a manticore skull mounted to the front of their cart would make a hell of a statement.

3:04:49 Travis had the PERFECT opportunity to say "it ain't easy bein' green" and he absolutely squandered it.

It take a real man to reist that joke

Hes very smart, he probably didnt want to undercut the moment

When Caleb does the thing with the bread I immediately get sad. The other two don't seem to get what he is doing and its just too wholesome.

But... What was he doing?

WisdomThumbs - it’s an old homeless trick, to get the most out of limited money: food and warmth in one small purchase.

I like that they don’t get it because they’re two rich girls and they definitely wouldn’t understand

It made me really sad I felt awful

I know and it's incredibly sweet. it melts my heart

[@Linogewillkillallofy]

Yeah I didnt like her elf character, but shes actually really fun this time around

[@thissisparta177]

sebastian bell that is amazing

i absolutely LOVE Sam's foreshadowing here. "I need him to become powerful so he can save me.........he can change me, change this"

[@lilypad.7485]

I LITERALLY HAD TO WALK OUT OF MY ROOM WHEN JESTER SAID " nothing oskar, dont worry about it" i was cackling i *_HAD_* to take a breather that was gold
