Beware the Quiet DND Player

- DND Combat ends with a quiet player dealing the finishing blow. As the DM asks them to describe how they finish the dungeons and dragons encounter, what could go wrong? Whether you play Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder, or other TTRPGs, you should always beware the quiet player!

And then there's me that rolled really high on tickling someone's feet until they talked.
Hahaha the world takes all kinds to keep spinning 😂
Interrogating the tabaxi assasin was going poorly so we threatened to let our psychotic kobold sorcerer shave him. That did the trick
@@onenerdyboi Hahaha I'm sure that was a fun interaction to play out
I was trying to calm down and build trust with an npc fish person so he would tell us stuff. Our rogue threathened that the guards outside would turn him into sushi. Poor dude was traumatized.😂😂😂
Please keep your fetishes out of the game
“I’ll use the blood as lube”
- the most haunting PC I’ve ever DM’d for.
HAHAHA Good LORD. I have never heard one quite that disturbing before. Short and sweet too.
When she's on her period
@@Michigan_Man💀
Using this for my next intimidation check
@@Michigan_Manknights always got their swords bloodied
That's the moments I give inspiration to as a DM (I am running Dark Fantasy atm, so yeah)
Haha I'd be tempted too if a player at my table did this.
as a quiet player who is in medical classes, i can approve this is the exact language i use. describing every detail and knowing which areas do the most damage depending on what i roll. I think i once described how my character plunged her holy javelin into an enemy as i quoted my most hardcore line.
“The tip sparkled outside of the body as the curved accents of the weapon latch onto their intestines, and with one hard pull She rips out the small intestines. The sloshing snap of the monsters gut being pulled apart became that vermin’s last words”
yeah my dm lets us have full description rights on 19+ rolls
Hahaha nice one! That is one badass description!
I totally had one of those. We captured a prisoner who refused to talk, so I went out and found some bamboo and proceeded to make finger splitters. DM was still so adamant that he wasn't going to talk that I had to start to actually describe how to use them before grossing him and the table out. He did talk though.
Good lord 😂😅
@@ConstructedChaos in my defense we had spent like 3-4 game sessions on trying to figure out where we were supposed to go next (20+ hours and nearly a month) and at that point this guy was the ONLY LEAD. I was just about ready to leave the table lol
@@monomanamaniac haha don’t worry. I was equal parts intimidated and impressed 😂
"Dont want to talk? WONDERFUL! More fun for me"
@@Aichi1138 when I had my character pull out the stock of bamboo the guy laughed about it and was joking about how it was much less frightening than the brand we had just tried. He wasn't joking when I explained how I put the tip under his finger nail and put it on him like a ring.
Damn they took levels in murder
Hahaha unbeknownst to the rest of the group!
My favorite widowgast quote, "I can get to work of I have to."
Haha I'm not sure I watched far enough into Campaign 2 to catch that one but I'm almost caught up with Campaign 3!
Aww, that's pretty tame considering how the others react to it.
I don't think that's tame at all but maybe I'm too soft hahaha
@@ConstructedChaos
Oh, definitely not tame in absolute terms. It's just much tamer (IMO) than the other characters' reactions would imply. An important distinction!
This guy needs to be hired as Chief Creative Designer for the Mortal Combat Fatality Department
They'll just have to get him to talk more haha
As the quiet player I can confirm this is what we do
I was the quiet player before I was the DM so I know first hand as well haha.
Same but I say this stuff irl sometimes and my sister doesn't agree that it's interesting and fun. Smh it's so sad...
This reminds me of one group I watched, one of the players never made detailed descriptions or interesting finishers until what I thinknwas the bbeg of the campaign, he made one of the best desceiptions of the finishing blow that was presented in the entire story, literally having all the players and the dm speechless for a good couple of minutes.
Haha we honestly had a pretty epic BBEG combat with a player that described an EPIC attack! It's so awesome as a DM when I have that energy to feed off of!
DM: "Go on."
More?! Lol
Had one of these on a small one off with my old AIT buddies. I made a dwarf warlock character and had a lot of inspiration from lovecraftian horror stuff so every time we would end combats i started making a habit of cutting ears and tongues off of any foe nearby that was slain to be used like offerings, but i had such bad luck with the rolls to do it correctly that for like the first 3 or so encounters i just kept horribly mutilating the corpses for no reason. This happened when the rest of the party was interrogating an enemy that was part of an ambush on us and my dwarf was just in the background sawing the jaw off of his allies and ripping their brains out and shit.
Oh my hahaha. That's horrific!
You said allies?
hell id still be hyped that he put the effort in
True! I love when my players give me vivid descriptions like this to draw off of!
Bro that's the kind of stuff I would probably do if I got into combat intensely
Haha well then you're good company to keep at the table! Go off! :D
Certified bruh moment
I once had a work friend turn like this during a game of monopoly and it was one of the scariest things I’ve witnessed in my whole life.
@@ConstructedChaos I can see him soon after that becoming the boss and your fears became warranted.
@@Dakarai_Knight Hahaha you may have just given me an idea for an entire story arc for this character within the context of my shorts.
This is aby far more interesting video then the one I hated on earlier
Thanks I guess lol
Quiet and nervous people are that way because they’re constantly frustrated by something. When you have absolutely no energy or motivation in your life like that, and someone says “you can channel all the anger and frustration you want in this moment” it pours
Quiet, nervous, and contemplating
I may have explained an oddly specific sacrificial ritual for my cultist umbral binder rogue. In my defense i was told to be working on that and then the story went to other characters roleplaying at a tavern for over half an hour
Hahaha sounds like you had a lot of extra time to think about the ritual 😂
Actually the most well thought out role playing and most realistic one at that.
We should have more of these players
Absolutely! To be honest, this is what every DM wants I'm pretty sure haha
You know it's bad when the fighter gets shook
Hahah right?!
Ferb I know what we are going to do today
🤣
Thanks
HA HA HA HA HA!
We've ALL had that guy at our table. LOL!
Haha at least once, right? I’ve definitely BEEN that guy a time or two as well.
@@ConstructedChaos If you have this guy at the table you will regret not reading through his backstory.
You shuffle through his notes and you find the passage.
he was the advisor of a general who was killed for his warcrimes against humanity and elfenkind. His deathsentence reflected his Nickname. Flad the impaler. To avoid the same fate as the general he laid low. But the cruel actions were always his advises and rooted in his own nature. It is just a matter of time until his deepest desires for torture bubble up again.
I think i make a character or a villian out of it.
If you give us a chance to talk, your going to hear it. XD
Haha as a former quiet player turned DM, I absolutely agree!
The inner monologue of a serial killer
Or just the deep dark thoughts of a quiet person. Being a serial killer means you act on them haha.
Stay out of the quiet player's basement. Don't go down those stairs there
Yeah, sometimes being the quiet player is fun. I got crit on an Inflict Wounds, and I’d barely spoken before, and I’m sure they expected me to be quick about it, and what came out of my mouth was: “You watch as [My PC] shoves her hand into the open wound in the cult leader’s chest. The necrotic magic instantly starts rotting away flesh and bone, his screams bouncing off the marble walls as his organs become mush underneath her hand. And once he’s reduced to nothing but dust, she blows what’s left away with a happy smile.” I think it was a stunned 5 minutes of silence before the Barbarian went “Holy FUCK, you have been holding out dude!” So now I talk more cause apparently they vibed really hard with me and my descriptions.
Hahaha that's so epic! I love it when players surprise me with descriptions like that!
My character is a rogue that values efficiency. When my dm asks how “it dies” I usually just say “quick stab through the throat”, because iT’s wHaT mY cHaRaCtEr wOuLd dO
Hahaha I'd say that's totally fair game! The "IWMCWD" problem is really only a problem for me when it sucks the fun out of the game.
QUIET KID SHOWED OFF HIS FINAL FORM: DND PLAYER
I’m generally quiet when playing dnd, I want to do the thing, I sayi do the thing, I do the thing. Plain and simple, my party is too big to be spending so much time on every player so I like to think I’m giving everyone else more time to do things. That said, the other night we got into an encounter where we jumped in to save an npc who my character wasn’t on good terms with. So I kinda held back a bit (playing a bladesinger so good at any distance) but before I could do anything the leader of the enemy group saw I got left solo and teleported him and a few grunts behind me. I easily took out the grunts and put the leader to sleep with a special poison on my sword (it can apply the poison as a bonus action). After the rest of the grunts we’re swiftly dealt with by the other players I tied up the leader and woke him up by stabbing my sword through his foot. We needed to get some answers about who he is, who sent him, etc. so I spent a good 10 minutes roleplaying with the dm me torturing the I formation out of this guy…
Damn! I bet that stunned a few people around the table!
Us quiet ones can have really fucked up imaginations🤣 he just did an MK finisher 😈
Hahaha we sure do!
This why you let quiet player quiet until they are ready
Sounds like this one was pretty ready to me! hahaha
That's a good horror description
Haha thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Honestly, i expected more... but mayby that is just the twisted sens of humer from a Stellaris player...
Haha maybe I'm just a bit too soft!
Haha, we make people concerned for our well being. :3
Teehee it's fun :)
My DM awards this quiet player with an extra 5gp for creativity
Toss a coin to your Witcher!
Most lawful neutral forge cleric
Reminds me of the time I named a cleric Shanks. He wielded a knife and was obsessed with sweets, preferably hard tack candy.
He slit a bandits neck and licked the blood off his knife. Then, while the party was in combat still, went looking through her stuff for candy.
That is a weirdly off-putting combo of actions to take haha
YEEESSSSS I didn't stop snapping. That was poetry
Hahaha glad you liked it!!
my brother was playing DnD once and I not knowing much asked him a few questions. what I learned was that a couple of his powers was to make it rain holy water and these magic hands that he could use like normal hands but away from his body.... he described that using the hands he could drown an enemy by holding the mouth and nose shut. I asked if he could run into any sort of demons in the game... he said yes... I told him to drown a demon in holy water.
That’s badass!! Nice one!
Cool idea I’ve had is what if your party is investigating gruesome murders of a serial killer only to realise that this killer is someone you’ve been adventuring with the entire time…
Oh man I love that!
Quiet people have the wildest imaginations because all the time that they're spending on not talking, they are thinking.
Yyyyyep!
I had one heck of a time with the executions, to the point that I wasn't allowed to explain the killings anymore 😅
Hahaha you must have quite the way with words!
@@ConstructedChaos yeah it didn't really help that I was playing a half lycanthrope character 😅
Now imagine a 5 man party like this. Meet my friends.
Haha sounds like a ton of fun! May I suggest trying out call of Cthulhu with a group like that?
Sanity damage multiple times per session....
@@ConstructedChaos sounds terrifying. I love it.
Same
Did something similar to some cultists, my friends were shook by the funnee David Bowie elf
I never used Charisma a lot as my character wasn't really that good at it. But one session my character was absent from the party and one of my friends was absent from the game. She played a bard. So I set about intimidating everything I could find with the deepest, most menacing voice I could muster - a total game-changer from the fun loving gnome rogue I uad been playing before. Now that I think about it, it wasn't really in character for the bard who is also very easygoing. But it was so fun.
Hahaha maybe they were just having a really bad day in character?
This is what lo-key Chaotic Evil looks like.
Haha sounds like it's time for an alignment change!
That was me. I have learned to keep most of that to myself now.... when playing outside of my close friend groups...😊
Haha! Yeah it’s fine to freak out your friends that know better! 😂
ThIs is why we are quiet. The shit we think vs the things we say are quite different
100%
You see we are morbidly infatuated by gory kills we watch a lot of horror movies
🤘
"Can you do all that in six seconds?"
They should have plenty of time if it’s the end of combat 😜
Thanos: He asked didn’t he?
Sometimes you get more than you bargained for haha.
Once promised a brigand to stab his eyes with his collarbones if he didnt fuck off.
He was still alive for most of it
Lol roll intimidation at advantage!
@@ConstructedChaos i didnt get advantage and dumped CHA
@@gewuerzwanze5627 hehe well, it all worked out in the end…. Right?
@@ConstructedChaos yeah we won and the local authorities didnt mind us taking down some lowlifes.
if I was the DM there I'd be like "Dang, Good descriptions. wanna run next campaign?"
Haha fair enough! Might be time to be a player again, eh?
The single most chilling thing I've ever gotten to say at a D&D table was "Ohhhh, you don't know how platypus venom works?"
Dare I ask?
Oooooo do tell!!
@@ConstructedChaos Oh I get to explain? It's a good day! Platypus Venom is interesting in that it doesn't work like most venoms. It causes a tiny bit of muscle wastage, but that's not its main function. It doesn't shut down any organs or attack the blood or any of that. It just HURTS. (Well, it has paralytic effects on small animals, but not a person or even child sized subject, Halflings might be a little stiff but could probably still move if they aren't overwhelmed by agony)
Platypus venom causes intense, agonizing pain to the point that most people affected with it completely lose the ability to function, in the sense that they are in so much pain they can no longer even move around.
That's not the part that bad guys love, though. Bad guys love the fact that the venom causes Hyperalgesia, or unnaturally increased sensitivity to pain, that can last for months after the initial exposure if you're unlucky, or in D&D terms if you have bad Fort saves.
And I'm gonna quote wikipedia here for some bonus bulslhittery: "A clinical report from 1992 showed that the severe pain was persistent and did not respond to morphine." So you can't even dull the pain with painkillers.
Bone Apple Tea, motherfuckers!
@@gelusvenn5063 Gods that is intense! And here I just thought that they were goofy little duck cousins!
For some unfathomable reason, this reminded me of my party's (now deceased) rogue delivering the killing blow with a sneak attack:
"How do you do this?"
"Okay. I run towards him with my shortsword in hand, but I trip and stick it in his chest"
Hahaha that's definitely a memorable one! I love the idea of making a character that's just insanely lucky and never means to hurt anyone but somehow becomes a hero.
The most brutal kill I’ve had is my Minotaur character gored someone on his horns then ripped them in half with his bare hands while they were impaled, showering himself in viscera
Wow! Sounds like a badass bloodbath moment! Did the baddie deserve it?
That’s the moment I decide to add a stress mechanic where doing stuff like this causes stress for everyone involved which can lead to madness and if anyone complains they get permanent disadvantage on saves against madness effects.
You either do things civil and clean, or you go insane because you clearly weren’t sane to begin with.
hahaha I would love to implement a mechanic like this! On that subject, I kinda feel like a shift in alignment might be necessary as well and I kinda wish the 5e system supported that with more mechanical benefit/detriment or didn't use alignment at all.
@@ConstructedChaos I am actually working on an alignment focused system, mostly effecting clerics, warlocks, and paladins, where it’s more what their gods want and since like 90% of my homebrew gods demand living sacrifices that means most of them are evil.
But anyways, yeah, clerics, warlocks, and paladins have alignment focuses in my game because of the fact they have people they made agreements with and if they anger their gods, the gods may remove their powers, and my players are ok with that.
Most of the clerics, paladins, and warlocks still try to follow the few good gods.
I once played a monk halfling who kicked a giant so hard it stumbled back into the lava that was behind it in the chamber. Giant still had quite a bit of life left and the fight wasn't in our favor. One lucky roll and the fight was over.
Hell yeah! Lava damage is no joke at all!
well if he couldnt see, he could at least feel his own eyeballs being shoved down his throught swallowing them before his guts were sliced open...
*shivers*
That's me and my warlock teammate. We took an infinite jar of oil, flooded the plane of existence, and he cast fireball.
Okay. This is some next level devilry haha
Me as the quiet person: thrust my blade through their leg trapping them to the ground. Then pulling out the enemy's hair and feeding it to them. Stabbing them in the heart after.
That’s a new one! Gruesome!
I once evaporated a goblin with a crit using shocking grasp arcane channeled through a rapier. The prose I said that day was enough to stun the party into silence...
That sounds epic as hell! Well done!
Fighter: i think i unleash a demon?
Dm: BARD, quickly roll for encouragement
Bard: * rolls * fuck , a nat 1
I, as a hag cleric, rammed a chisel I found into a downed golem's chest with enough force that I punched through it's chest and ripped out it's core.
I then proceeded to supercharge it using my magic, melding inert cores together in order to take the fullest capability of my spells (I used Create Water, which suffused it with Transmutation)
The last thing that golem saw, waking up under my command, was an 8ft 9 cleric.
And two words, that any programmer has said at least once.
"Hello, World."
Hahaha as a computer science grad, "hello, world" was a perfect touch.
It’s always the quiet ones
Methinks it's why they're quiet :D
Oh shit that would 100% be me
Haha honestly, that's a good thing! I love descriptions like this at my table!
"Stop making me describe every single fucking kill there's 80 fucking goblins I don't need to know their blood type and zodiac"
Haha I usually only ask for descriptions in particularly intense moments or for the last attack of a combat
Had a barbarian bard, basically a skald. Everyone just called it the bardbarian. Ended up lodging a great axe into someones ribs, wasn't an instant death so I sang to the guy who's just bleeding out at my feet about how I'm such a great fighter and dissing him for losing. Felt like a rapper's dis track
Hahaha I've made a bardbarian before! I can tell you that it was a lot of fun for me and that the rest of the party hated them.
my character recently killed a boss with primal savagery by climbing on his back and ripping out his throat with their teeth and drinking the blood. Beware the quiet player💀
Damn!! That’s freaking brutal!
I play one of those atm, a changeling bloodhunter artificer who got tricked into selling his soul to an eldritch entity for intelligence. As a soulless entity he finds the art of murder interesting and when he murders he shapechanges into a lovecraftian esque horror.
As an artificer his robots are all made as torture devices, he has a sparrow/facehugger homunculus
This sounds absolutely terrifying haha. Are you sure you aren’t the BBEG?
@@ConstructedChaos I feel like I might be the DM's BBEG hahaha. The amount of times I've hybrid formed into a sleep paralysis demon and explained it in excruciating detail made him so disturbed he took a few of them and made them homebrew monsters for his Curse of Strahd game.
My personal favourite is an axolotl/slenderman/joker mash-up - he takes a gleeful delight from terrifying his prey and a total disregard to his own pain.
An description from my notes:
"He smiles, hugging his stomach as he chuckes. The laugh starts to sound strained, yet he carries on. The smile pulls at the corners of his mouth, stretching wider, wider, wider still; tearing away at new bits of flesh to find room for his glee.
Suddenly, his pupils burst, spraying the ground in a black ichor. He looks up, this inky void filling his eyes without and within like vials of midnight. The darkness spills out, running down his face as tear-tracks on fresh-laid snow that pool along his lips, staining gnarled teeth."
There's more there about how he buries his fingers in his face causing it to crack like frost-bitten skin to explain his crimson rite, but it goes on and on painting a picture with metaphors 😂

Reminds mr of my my first ever playthrough, I was just doing a small character with my dad and his friends. I was caleb, a small orphan boy who's orphanage was being attacked by pirates. Well, I was met face to face with the high pirate King and looked my dad dead in the eye after being silent most of the game and said "I say to the bandit king 'eat this' then I stab my dagger down his mouth". I rolled a Nat 20 and my dad and his friends liked that so much he counted it as an insta kill
Hell yeah!! That deserved to be a cool moment and it was! Well done!
You see as a dm thats a limit right when someone goes that far
Every table is different but you're probably right for most of them!
Once I played a lawfull good paladin and I generally fallowed the good kind knight trope yet I was still the most gruesome character.
My one of my first kills was "I stab them in the guts with my longsword skewering them then I twist the blade and cut them inside out towards right upper diagonal then once my sword is out I use the momentum to decapitate them" (I was trying to do the aragorn thing)
And we were fighting a druid who killed the woodcutter and his son for cutting wood and I started the combat with "You slithering poisonous vine, you dust collecting green wench, the child murdering whore and man killing coward husk of a demon spawn!"
To say the least, our lawfull evil wizard became lawfull good around me >:)
Hahaha Righteous fury!
That's freaking awesome.
Haha sitting across from it inspires a different emotion! JK. I love when my players give me descriptions like this!
No such thing as “overkill “ There is only “open fire!” And “reload!”
Unless your DM doesn't allow guns haha
Maxim 37
Loose arrows and reload
Give us some coffee and you’ll all be fine but if you don’t then who knows what might happen
Haha funny story actually, coffee will actually kill me about as awfully as this player killed that enemy 😂
I killed a dragon with Vicious Mockery once. I ofc was a Bard, it was my very first game and I was missing a lot of my attacks. So I then cast Vicious Mockery in hopes to stun the Dragon but got a Nat 20 and the Dragon was already low on health. I still feel bad for stealing the kill
Hahaha My bard did something similar to a BBEG once right after popping up from a nat 20 death save and then taking all the credit for themselves
Average Mortal Kombat brutality
*FINISH HIM*
About to steal the dm's job
That’s the real reason they’re scared haha
The party: 👁👃👁
🤣
I feel like I've said a similar sentence once, in a different setting.
I bet it was epic! 😊
We all learned a lesson today quite people get advantage on intimidation checks
Haha! I’ve always admired people that can withhold their thoughts until the moment when their words would be most impactful.
Bro u hearted everyone and replied u are such a good youtuber
Hahaha Thank you! I try to read and respond to most comments on the channel since we're still relatively small! It's actually part of my morning ritual now so I don't even think about it :)
I'm the quiet player in this context
Haha sounds like you'd be a lot of fun to have at the table! I love when my players give me descriptions in such detail!
Reminds me of my 1st one. We just need to be free once... And it's chaos
Yeah you're chaotic evil now
Quietic Evil
*once described my storm aura lightning going from someones eye and the lightening goes through them like if lightening struck a person* Yeah. This tracks
Haha the looks you get from everyone else at the table are the best part!
@@ConstructedChaos We were in a voice call, but what made it better was our DM. Taking that small description and going into MORE detail. I'd say that moment was better than me just saying "Can..can i decapitate him?" for my other HDYWTDI
@@caitlynnhatch9254 Yes!! I love when my players give me cool descriptions that I can feed off of!
Least bloodthirsty Barbadian
"I want to be a barbarian"
"That's great! Barbarian is an awesome class--"
"I wasn't talking about my character"
Good idea 👍😁
Haha these kinds of monologues just randomly come to me in the dead of night sometimes.... maybe it's my warlock patron.
Yeah get those nice beautiful descriptions lol
I try haha
That was very detailed..
Yes.... detailed haha.
Why does this remind me of Homelander's death at the hands of Omni-Man in Death Battle?
Hahaha that was a brutal scene!
Yes sounds about right
I once one shot the boss of our session by rolling a nat 20 on a giant, with favored enemy, stealth attack, hunter's mark, dreadful strike, beguiling twist(fey wanderer playtest ranger using dreadful strike could trigger beguiling twist) and extra damage from a goblin bow. The giant was at full hp, shot through the eye, out the back of the Skull, splattering his brains on the cave ceiling, with the arrow digging a hoe 2 feet deep into ceiling
Hell yeah!! We had a combat with a monster slayer ranger that did much the same thing after the wild magic sorcerer made the dragon we were fighting vulnerable to piercing damage haha
@@ConstructedChaos the best part is though is that there were only 3 people in my party, one was unconscious from his own stupidity and the other one was unconscious from getting hit once, my character would have been downed in one hit as well so that shot was all or nothing
Me cringing at the memory of me doing something similar in my first ever game
Why cringe?! This is epic! I love stuff like this at my table!
One time I was playing a warforged barbarian and was bitten on the arm by a wolf and rolled a nat 20 on attack roll. I lifted my great axe up and said
“Bad horsey” then split it clean in half.
😂😂😂 I think this is my favorite story on this thread lmao
i like this guy
Haha as one of my many personalities, thank you!
Once I was DMing at an elementary school, had a 9 year old girl do that. It was actually kind of scary
Hahahaha kids can say some absolutely unhinged stuff without realizing it!
DM asked a player how do you want to do it?
Barbarian "I bring my warhammer crushing their skull on the floor"
LG Cleric yelling on the background "SPARE THE DYING!"
Everyone to Player "What is done is done but you were literally laughing when you burned a bandit to death five minutes ago?"
LG Cleric "But we needed someone alive so we torcher them for answers."
Everyone "CG Cleric."
Haha that cleric might even qualify for chaotic neutral.
@@ConstructedChaos We try to avoid moving alignment at once to certain place, moving it slowly so people have time to react with their role play if they don't like the direction ;)
Nice description
Haha Thanks!!
