- Have you ever wanted to appease your inner vindictive dwarf and watch the entire race of Elves get absolutely dunked on for a good 20 minutes? Brennan and the Fantasy High gang have got you covered.
Spoilers for Fantasy High Live, obviously.

I want to believe in Tolkien’s mind, this is EXACTLY how the Dwarves saw the Elves
"Ah nevirr thohght ah wudd dai fiyTin sadd b'sadd with in aelf"
"Haow abowowt sy-eed by sy-eed wihith a frrrrrayend"
@@ChaosLierLen this kill me, the visage of legolas talking like that's is hilarious
It’s DEFINITELY how the dwarves in warhammer see the elves
I like the idea of elves having the misconception that humans only live for as long as a well looked after cat.
I mean, relatively they do. If an elf lives 750 years (which is what Google says DnD elves live for) then the 80 years a human lives would be even less than the 20 years a cat lives relative to humans.
And that's actually part of the joke with this character. Being immortal, he hasn't needed a firm grasp on time or how long something will take or how long something will live, so he comically under and over estimates spans of time.
@@weneedaladder8384in dnd 750 is accurate, but it seems to me that in fantasy high they either can live forever or are understood by most to be able to liver forever. So the proportion is even smaller
@@rianantonythey're immortal if they stay in their homeland
Some Elves call Humans Mayflies. It's not a misconception
Honestly the funniest part to me is fig going 'im half that...' and her mom *immediately* going 'you are not half that these are high elves' like even other elves are fed up with high elf bullshit lmao
Sandra Lynn's "you are NOT half this they are High Elves" is lowkey one of my favorite Sandra Lynn moments :P
"oh, so that's what they mean when they say "high" elves. -me
Man, Sandra Lynn's kinda racist.
@@RabblesTheBinx nah fam thats a status thing cus racially theyre the same in most lore ive seen. Its like a salaryman speaking negatively about posh people lol
I mean Adaines parents are horrible and shit but a little credit for making her a ball of anger so she doesn't become /this/
@@RabblesTheBinx No Fig was worriedly asking if she was half that and Sandra Lynn just reminded her she was a wood elf not a high elf. Fig was being racist not Sandra Lynn
“It’s two words?”
“Your grandfather is pissing me off.”
I just love how it's Gorgug getting mad 😂
Mamawerecat he’s goes into a rage
“Riz has his hand on his gun” Something about a goblin in a fantasy world just carrying around a gun gets me to audibly laugh every single time.
“I cast Gun”

“Parry this you filthy casual!”
i can't believe Gorgug got more angry at Fabian's grandfather for mispronouncing stuff than he got at Fabian for punching him in the gut for literally no reason lmao
Hey getting punched in the gut happens. Water under the bridge. Mispronunciation of words in a fairly deliberate way, HERESY OF THE HIGHEST ORDER!
Jeor-Judge the tenai-je-jair
@@spacetearable my phone literally had a "translate to English" option on this comment. Not that it worked well 🤣
Character growth
To be fair, he DOES go into a rage when Fabian punches him. I think he's just learned that he can properly express his frustration with someone without going into a full rage.
I love how Gorgug can go from awkward nerdy kid to "I'm getting pissed" and "Your granddad's pissing me off"
“Heigh chul”
“Come on.”
He is a barbarian after all, got that rage in him
Excuse you, I believe you mean Jorjuj
He's gotten better at expressing his anger in ways other than bottling it up then flying into uncontrolable rages.
I favorite part is “You’re all down to do my dad’s snuff, but my grandpapa says some weird words a few times and we’re all like Fuck this Guy”
“he is weeping without moving his face” GOT ME
hhhuuuuuuuugh...hhuuuuuuuuuuuughhhhh...
Reminds me of the Native America crying commercial
@@spacetearablehaaaauuuuuuuuuunnnn. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh…
Zac's "come on." After "hïgh chjéwl" always gets me
It's literally my favourite Zac-line. Somehow he managed to say "I'm so fkn done man" with nothing but tone
It's the most replayed part of the video too lol
Jyor-jhahj
"Is that her career?"
"CARAAR!?!"
*sigh* "Is it her job?"
"JOBE!?!"
"Oh god..."
Talking with a rich kid from a private school
same thing with errand, the concept of work probably doesn't exist for immortal beings lmao
Brennan going "Let us walk in the midnight orchards and recite our favorite poems to one another" and then just whipping out a fluffy rhyme scheme absolutely slew me.
And then best lunch lad goes-
"Um... How much... Wood... Could a wood chuck chuck..."
I love Gilear.
I remember chat absolutely losing their minds over IMPROVED POETRY
Calling that rhyme scheme fluffy is both the most correct and most beautiful thing I've ever seen
Sometimes I think I'm a good DM and then I remember that I CAN'T improvise convincing elven poetry off the cuff
@@roguetiefling you probably are good. Brennan's just been doing this since he was 11 (literally) and thus is firmly in the God Tier of DMs
I love the idea that the orc and goblin characters are so over the high elf shit. Like the whole reason their races hate the high elves is cause they can't stand how the high elves talk and act weird.
"Why can't you just be normal?"
'Neurmahl?'
"Oh my fucking god."
Yeah, like Warforged are more immortal than elves and they don't act like this.
@@stm7810 Yeah, with a robot, they can relate...

Fabian and his grandpa oddly remind me of first-gen kids of immigrants and their decidedly non-Western grandparents. Like, you know they love you, but they're about as easy to grasp as fucking air sometimes 🙃
Technically fabian is an immigrant, huh? I never really realised lol. Also thats such a precious way of looking at it. It really does seem that way tho! Reminds me of my chinese grandma who absolutely BUTCHERS every word of english she speaks because she never rreally learned how to speak the language lol.
aww yeah - My yaya has an excellent vocabulary but she has real unique pronunciations and idioms really just blow past her
An absolute mood
*grandpapa
yes this is absolutely me interacting with my arab grandpa- sorry, grandpapa
I’m sorry but I lost it at “elven sheets crafted by elven sheetsmiths”
So he can put "sheet" and "smith" together, but somehow "boyfriend" is completely unattainable
What would 'sheetsmiths' even be actually, like,, seamstresses? Weavers?
@@IrisGlowingBlue I imagined that they were made out of some form of silver/insert fantasy metal thread.
@@emmakane6848 the ultimate weighted blanket! if you heat it up just a tiny bit its the ultimate heated AND weighted blanket! ITS FUCKING GENIUS.
5:35 Murph's utterly defeated, pleading, 'close-to-the-edge-of-the-abyss' "You guys simply must stop talking to him" has me rolling hours later.
I laughed so hard I cried, and had to stop the video to text my best friend (who had not reached this part of the season yet) "Murph is so hilarious. You get no context." I then continued the video
Emily's broken, "I LiKE thE wAy He saYS ThIngs!" afterwards is the kicker.
I really want Brennan to play an elf character like this as a guest character on critical role
when the day will come that brennan comes to critical role... that will be a legendary episode
Hard same. It would be amazing
he would get kicked by the gang so quickly lol think Taryon but faster

Despite the fact that Gorgug is literally a barbarian, I think this is the most pissed he has ever gotten from a simple conversation. Like he is such a chill dude, and yet his class is about rage and destruction, and THIS is the one thing that tips him over the edge.
He's a barbarian who rages over what's worth being mad about.

It was at that point that I realized the elves were just fucking with them.
This is such a galaxy brain take on elves. They live forever. Of course this guy wouldn't know what a "career" or "job" is because, who needs any of that when you literally cannot die unless you're murdered? I love that Brennan made it silly but this is still incredible world-building
I mean in the base rules they need to eat, drink, breathe, trance and get diseased and suffer from temperatures just as much as humans and live about 800 years tops, it's Warforged that ignore mortal needs.
@@stm7810 I believe in Spyre (the main setting of FH) the high elves are immortal as long as they're in their homeland.

brennan after dunking on elves in escape from the bloodkeep: *i’ve tasted blood and i want mooore*
More more more
That wasn't even the first time he dunked on elves. See his College Humor sketch Christmas Elves vs Fantasy Elves
I’m honestly impressed with Siobhan’s self control to not jump into these chaotic scenes solely cuz Adaine isn’t present lmao
OH MY GOD AMAZING
"A real eye?". "As real as songs and whispers" is what gets me.
This always kills me, it's so unclear how real that actually is
the fact that if you add the footage of every other time he’s dunked on elves and the elven language you’d have over a half an hour of content
Threthreelehteeelthrerthre
Bloodkeep had some quality elf-dunking for sure
And I’d watch that video
First episode of Fantasy High and Fig getting annoyed at overhearing elvish: “uhhh, so many ‘T-H’ sounds…” 😂
Well now I want that video
I love the idea of a high elf calling human “humAN” as the fantasy equivalent as a white dad saying “A-rab” instead of arab
It is similar to how the star trek ferengi say it. Gave me a giggle
Underrated comment 🤣
first ever time they straight up started roasting elves was in the very first episode of Fantasy High when Sandra Lynn started talking on the phone to Gilear and Emily went "Ugh, can't believe I'm half that... Oh my god, just so many th- sounds, ugh" lmao
You're right. It started with Emily but when the DM is roasting elves it means the world itself is burning them. Gorgug and Riz losing their cool over just talking to them is just perfect.
"So, is this like a high school?"
"Hike Chuul?"
"C'mon, man."
I literally constantly remember "jorjuj" periodically and chuckle, at times in the middle of my commute
*j u j*
I’ll be at school and I’ll have a tick hit me and it’ll just be “Jorjug” followed by myself trying not to laugh.
Every time I hear it, I think “It’s pronounced “Jif”.”
This is the logic people who say jif instead of gif go by
F**k someone beat me to the punch
Zac's angry "Come on" at häíschûlě gets me every time 😂
“High school.”
“Hæįßćhüłė”
Cut to Adaine sitting in her orb prison just
"Yep. Still kidnapped."
"I have soiled myself for the first time since the second age of the moon" Got me in the gut so hard
“What??”
“SAND.”
i’m in tears
The fact that gorgug hates them is so funny to me
This makes the orc and elf dynamic make so much sense.
This video illustrates why elves are a chaotically aligned race
Traditionally they have been extremely neutral in fantasy.
@@ttttillermand not in dnd5e
@@ttttillermand nah, fairy tale elves are chaotic as fuck. They are, after all, fey.
@@romxxii In D&D elves are chaotic fey creatures, yes, because D&D only draws from traditional fantasy, but is not itself in my opinon.
Elves in old fables and fairy tales were generally downright evil, but i'm talking stuff more like The Lord of The rings, where elves were secluded and didn't want to meddle much with the outside world and just wanted to be left alone.
@@ttttillermand Err, you've got your stuff mixed up, buddy. D&D draws from Tolkien, full stop. Where you do think orcs come from, or elves who are man-height or even taller? Folk tale elves were all small fairy creatures who would fuck you up for shits and giggles, or maybe give you unimaginable wealth for similar reasons.
Tolkien is the one who popularized man-sized elves who are lithe and who just "want to be left alone."
Sandra Lynn specifying that ONLY high elves are this weird and completely separating herself is so based yeah here we make fun of high elves
The implication that goblins/orcs have beef with elves not for cultural reasons or due to shared history, but just because they *cannot fucking stand elves* is so funny to me.
“I never thought we’d a whole episode of this show to just dunk on Elves.”
Spoken like a true DM. Never would’ve thought a party would do this, but here we are.
Every Session 1 with a Level 1 party:
DM: "As you approach the tavern you see a notice board next to the door."
*displays job board with various quests and juicy plot hooks*
Ranger: "Do I see any stray dogs?"
Wizard: "I ask the nearest passerby where I might purchase an Orb of Dragonkind."
Rogue: "I rolled a 69 for stealth, I'm sneaking along the rooftops looking for a jewelry store."
@@BeinIan As a rogue I can confirm that is what we do
I love that if you actually listen to Telemine’s poem it’s just Brennan spewing fluffy nonsense for 15 seconds
So... Poetry 🤣
“I’m just hoping he says van back to us,” followed by Brennan teeing them up for it by talking about “the iron beast” is a great example of a DM thinking quickly.
Now we know why they're called "high" elves.
All of
a sudden it makes sense why soo many races hate elves in fantasy worlds
Erine120 not because of any racism, but just because they’re a bunch of pretentious assholes
When you’ve got that long of a life span and have had to watch Humans throw away thousands of themselves willing just to prove to everyone that you CAN have s*x with a Tarraque and live to tell the tale
Yeah, they're so painfully beaugie.
@@stm7810 what the fuck is that word supposed to be?
@@bacicinvatteneaca That stupid german wordfor the capitalist class a.k.a. food, I spelled it poorly as a joke on how the elves sound.
“Where lands the evening swan of dusk,
The mid light blooms and grow
and peaks of mountains far away
descend on crystal glints of snow
And wheresoever songs are sung and
Elven magic fills the air:
Kael’ay thrandiel dhradha thuhta;
a prayer I whisper now, a prayer”

Bonus:
“How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood he would chuck uh as much as he uh... and uh I don’t remember the rest” - Gilear Faeth, disappointment of wood elves everywhere
I aspire to make poetry that quick.
Honestly- I should write out random poems just in case I ever have to do that during a campaign do that they think I did it in seconds flat

Ironically enough, while a parody this is actually a pretty good example of what the Undying Lands are like in the Tolkien-verse. Unchanging and eternal, where immortals are free to pursue their wants for unbroken centuries at a time. It's also a pretty good example of why even Tolkien himself said that the races of men would not do well in the Undying Lands, since everything would seem strange and unchanged until in nearly the blink of an eye one would find oneself old and dying with nothing having changed.
Knowing that Brennan is a big Lord of the Rings fan, it does not at all surprise me that he created a massive parody of "unchanging, eternal elves out of touch with mortals" that's also a fairly faithful example of the thing he's poking fun at. True parody comes from deep understanding after all
800,000 thread count sheets are theoretically possible but would feel terrible! High thread counts are a lie anyway, manufacturers pull apart the threads and then twist them back together so each Thea’s can be counted more than once. It ruins the integrity of the fabric and makes it rougher. 600 is the sweet spot for sheets, enough to be sturdy and crisp without being too stiff, and not a lie.
Thank you for coming to my fiber lies Ted talk.
No, I demand cream feeling, Elven sheetsmith crafted, 80,000 count sheets. I demand to have a perfect nights sleep.
I mean this is elves we’re talking about i wouldn’t be surprised if they did use 800,000 individual threads

The best part is that earlier on he has the younger elves say the word “dick” so its at least consistent with Telamaine also knowing the word
if you don’t spend at least 15 min dunking on elves in d&d what are you even doing
I love that the people having the worst time in KAIlurMANURAA are the goblin and half orc
I mean tbf everyone else is elf and human
The soft "come on" by Gorgug says so much I just cant (9:08)
Also the "what is... this?" at 2:39. Gorgug is just amazing
That’s fully just Zac at that point so done with Brennan’s elven bullshit 😂
As a fan of fantasy stuff, there is nothing I love more than goofing on elves. I am the vindictive dwarf, its me.
Oh gawd, I need to make my high elf more like this. She has had her moments though…
“Kristine Scilfore of Evereska.”
“I don’t understand a word you just said.”
“You do not know the word ‘of’?”
"Nice to meet ya Chrissy Skillshare!"
Gesundheit
9:08 Zac is so good, but this little "come on" gets me every time.
it gets even funnier when you think about the concept of Shibboleths, where the longer you've been alive, the harder it is to replicate pronunciations of unfamiliar word sounds, even with practice. Telemine has been alive so long that "teenager" and "garage" are completely alien phonemes.
Listening to this after leaving a brutal massage and was not expecting to hear the same royalty free spa music playing in the background
The mispronunciation part never fails to make me literally cry laughing every single time
I like that jorjuj was getting really pissed but I also like that Fabian was standing up for the grandpa
But they also gave the elves Gilear, the greatest living being to ever exist
Telemaine crying will forever be one of the funniest things I've had the pleasure of seeing
I like how after the conversation moves on Zac had to butt in to correct that he doesnt die at 20
Why do all the elves sound like a heavily sedated Matt Berry
"I bake Elven whey BREAD."
they're HIGH elves, sedation involves drugs
Holy shit that is spot on. I just realized I would love to see Matt Berry playing DnD.

Love how angry Gorgug/Zac is getting at Telamine
Gorgug getting angry at Fabian's grandfather will never not be funny
Brennan improvised a better poem than I could ever write no matter how much time I had
Lol, but this left out one of my favorite bits where the grandfather is contact juggling a moss covered rock while Fabian dances. 😄
Or when Gilear eats cream and admits he's pretty cool for once
Ohhhhh my god that made me cringe
Gorgug being increasingly angry at Telemine is the best thing ever his "come on." @brennan was so fucking funny
Brennan is having the time of his life and I love it
Telemine is Gilear levels of hilarious
I still think the funniest D20 character is the “My Bones” guy from Escape from the Bloodkeep
Completely opposite energy tho
That poem is actually evocative. Man, I'm always impressed at Brennan's improv.
I swear every time I turned the volume up he just started talking quieter
This scene has the same energy as the scene in Pink Panther where he’s trying to learn an American accent 😂 “debeugerh”
I finally realized what dealing with Telemein reminds me of! The bad kids felt just like the Vile Villains trying to talk to the bones guy.
He was at least somewhat sensible. Who DOESNT want to keep their bones?
Wow grandad you're very hung up on the dying thing
My favorite part is that Telemaine occasionally becomes Borat.
“Dunking on Elves”
The Dwarf in me is all for this. Elves are just the Ted Mosby of races.
if we are doing analogys from HIMYM than dwarfs would be the Marshall (ironically seeing how big he is) and Halflings/Gnomes would be Barney
ngl i love playing elves and absolutely dunking on them at the same time
elves suck so much and i love them for it
This episode made my dropout subscription 100% worth it
Riz: "You guys simply MUST stop talking to him."
I feel like if high elves existed they would HATE the "slow jerk off" hand motion humanity came up with because it would inevitably become the "go-to" gesture anytime a high elf spoke.
And despite their long lifetimes not a single high elf is creative enough to come up with a meaningful response to that insult. 😂❤
Brennan really loves his diaphanous textiles
He’s a nerd, he obviously knows about dhaka muslin and wants us to regain the lost knowledge of its creation.
