"I'm gonna fucking Home Alone this shit" -D&D mastermind
Yotam Shitrit right?
Their trap was messed up when you think about it...
Yotam Shitrit I'm gonna have my sorcerer set up a trap like this one day and use that line
It'd be funnier if they walked through a different entrance
as soon as i heard "the moment someone walks through that door," i knew exactly how it would end.
had a feeling throughout, but that sealed it.
garcon45 same
hello i know u @garcon
No the wax sealed it
I saw the punchline from hundred of miles ahead. A true evil mastermind never enters a room first.
nope they actually do. arrogance and all that.
but on this case, he would call them to his throne or something
If I was DM, I would be so torn between sending the gnome vs sending the master, just out of the sheer brilliance of the plan.
John Smith
That's true. Logic dictates that the gnome enters first, but at the same time you gotta reward that imagination effort from the players. It's a tricky subject for sure.
Knowing Jared, it was obvious a gnome would fall
oh, this one also need to be animated. I really want to see the trap going on.
I agree
Then we are 3
The 4th man speaks, compliance is his message!
I am lucky number 5, someone must mke it
lol animator on suicide watch.
You could make your channel entirely focused on D&D and I wouldn't complain.
I second this.
Third this, hell make a new Channel, call it DMJared
Funny you mention that, as his channel name back when Jared first left ScrewAttack WAS called DMJared before it got finalized to the ProJared we know today.
Oddly enough I didn't notice the name change from DMJared to ProJared until you pointed it out today.
But I love his reviews :(
i feel so sorry for that gnome.
you and me both bro
As soon as I heard "As soon as someone walks through the door" alarm bells started going off in my brain. Your GM is like a genie, he'll always give you what you ask for, especially if it's not what you wanted.
I want to thank your group for inventing Looney Toons
Critical Nobody *Looney Tunes
No?
no, hes right. its looney tunes. but who cares honestly?
And the moral of this story is: give the DM even half a chance, and they will throw your carefully crafted strategy back in your face. >:)
strategies dont backfire. plans do
These are the same DMs who squash every creative thing their players try to do, then go online and complain they don't know why their players gave up taking the game seriously and resort to murderhoboing
I had a one shot where I bought 50 lbs of soap and in the final boss fight I threw every bar of soap at the mud golem and he eventually slipped and I gave him a bath to wash off all of the mud. Turns out my character's sister was possessed and turned into a giant mud golem. (weirdest night ever)
Josh Korte That is one way to kill a golem
only way to kill a golem is to turn their emet into met
@ecchi squid I like this, I'm stealing it
Well I’m glad you didn’t kill your sister
This is kinda clever... might go and steal that.
Wow, you're rapid firing these episodes. To be honest, I love them. Loved them last year too.
On Friday I have my first meeting with my group. My character already stands, a rogueish bard, who believes himself to be of noble descent. And I honestly can't wait on what the first adventure holds for the group I'll be a part of.
Also, a friend of mine told me about when she played Pathfinder a while ago (which I'll also be playing), where she played a stupid barbarian brute.
The DM made a dragon appear, wanting the team to run away.
...she attacked it. And her team left her.
Then she had a huge aerial battle with the dragon that, from what I've heard, was above their levels.
...AND SHE KILLED IT.
Second time I see you without hundreds of likes! Getting out of steam, ya drunken wretch?
That is badass.
Your character already stands? Is that a JoJo reference?
Yes it is. Everything is a JoJo reference after all. Did you know that D&D is a JoJo reference?
MegaShadowblast ?
Of course you would bring thunder stones. Raichu and Jolteon are much stronger in their evolved forms.
I like your name :D
Schwarzer Ritter lol
I always bring some on low levels in case we run in cliche encounters with ordinary animals
people always mock me with this joke
until the day I scared away a pack of wolves that chased us to a cliff
So is Eelektross!
Jolten is great, but Raichu is slower and uglier, unless its alola
Home Alone would have been a very different movie had Kevin made that kind of trap.
Sticky Bandits did end up in some PAINFULLY STICKY situations.
"You know, I'm disappointed. Could there have been lava on top of the
spikes? With fire-sharks swimming in it? Could there be more spikes
coming from the sides, ready to close and then squash me while stabbing
at the same time? How 'bout some laser cannons and upside-down
volcanoes?"

Throw it at the dungeon boss not me
Ah, let's try something else.
Now watch and learn, here's the ropes

How did they know? How could they tell it was their friendly gnome? Did they put points into their "identify badly burned body with severely melted face" skill? I'm impressed.
Most players forget about that skill.
Even if its a burned body with a melted face, the gnome is kinda small and I doubt his body size can be mistaken for that of a human or any other species (maybe a goblin, but I seriously doubt the dungeon boss was a goblin).
What I do find weird is that none of them, at any point during the trap, had a chance to realize they are attacking a midget instead of a tall dude. Its not like this entire trap can be instantly executed in less than a second.
PS: You could argue its just another gnome, but why would it be? Its more logical to assume that its the same dude you sent to get help...
Ishio Kenbu
My response is they think the leader is a gnome. I thought the leader is/was a gnome myself. Jared never says they were another race. He said they didn't know their 'leader' was doing evil things with the automatons. One would think the leader of gnomes would be a gnome.
I still hold (if that were true and the leader was a gnome) that the carcass, engulfed in flames and a melted face, wouldn't even have clothes left to identify the body. But... I mean, we are debating a fantasy realm.
i think the issue is that it was a tiny ass body....
and more so, it ruins jared's attempt because he had to pull a lotta shit outta his ass. becuase ther eis no way they would not immediately notice that its a gnome.
two fo the attacks would missed. hell the sword woulda missed entirely as well
Yeah but it's D&D, and Jared was the Dungeon Master, so he was telling the story. All the player knew what they had to do, so they just told "I throw the net" or "I pull the wax into his mouth", and didn't think to ask what the person entering the room looked like. And Jared just described their burned victim after their turn.
They surprised the gnome (Surprise is the first step of a D&D combat if it's involving stealth), so he could not take action on that turn. Jared could easily hide the fact that their victim was not the Mastermind during the first seconds of the fight. But I agree some of the attacks must have missed.

that definitely kinda pulls back the veil a bit with the rpg aspect.
10 Foot Pole is a necessity for the peasant railgun
I'm not even into D&D, I just like sitting down for stories with uncle Jared.
Well in D&D and other Pen&Paper-RPGs you get to participate in the story, that's the beautiful thing about them.
@@Talon3000 0Or you get to ruin them. I used to play 2nd edition, and I ended up ruining a gigantic quest because I decided to be an ass and literally ripped a walking city in half. Don't ask for specifics please, just know, to this day my friends tell me I did the titanic, and I pissed off our DM.
Edit: I can give specifics, if people want it. I'm just not going to post them until they're asked for.
@@Plasstyre i would also like to know
@@lastplace3313 Alright, gather around for a story, I guess. It began with what could have been a one off adventure (we never found out, you'll know why), where we were on a walk plate/dome city (it wasn't made clear which, it was basically a city with mechanical spider legs over a lake). For some reason, when I was younger, I was OBSESSED with taking over cities and reaping the profits. I was the only one that wanted to do that too. So, we got on this GIANT city of dwarves (keep that fact in mind), and I had the not so bright idea to try and take it over. My idea on how? Set one of the houses on fire, and put out the fire when it rages. We would come out looking like heroes, and be treated as kings right? Wrong. No one else in the party was on board with it, for good reason. I climbed a building late at night around the center of the walking city, and set fire to it. Our mage, my brother, climbed up to try and put it out as I got off. I missed a very crucial detail. These were dwarves. Dwarves with explosives. Dwarves that kept explosions in a sole building, so they didn't accidentally hurt their city. So my brother takes a walloping blast in the center of the city, as ALL of their built up explosives go off. Our dwarf flies off into the lake, and gets swallowed by a fish, I hit the water hard, and our god wish barbarian is the only one unphased because he was on shore. The city cracked down the middle from the blast, and split in half, sinking deep into the lake. And that, my good sirs, is how I accidentally did the titanic.
Wanted to add, the DM later told us the quest was ON the city, which is why the campaign or one off was ruined.
That... That was fucking brutal.
NOW LOOK AT THIS NET
WHEN I SAY GO GET READY TO THROUGH!
THROW IT ON HIM, NOT ME!
GO
Captain_Clorox *SIGH* LET'S TRY SOMETHING ELSE.
I've scrolled down of the way in the comments just to see someone making this quote.
Today was a very productive day.
As soon as I heard the words "the first person to walk through that door." I knew what Jared was planning to do to their elaborate plan. XD Both the plan and the outcome were freaking hilarious!
beautiful.
I usually only buy rope and a grappling hook at the start of the game.
i only buy a ton of potions but i take everything i find along the way, anything from clothes from my enemies to sticks and nails.
and yes i make these types of traps.
and all the gnomes were totally ok with you guys setting up an ellaborate trap?
FullPie S my thoughts exactly.
+laserbot 28 they didn't know that
laserbot 28 He mentioned in the beginning that they didn't realize they were enslaved and thought that their master was a good guy. "Listen, bitch!"
I think they were in a separate room.
What's the ratio of Jared being a DM to Jared being a player?
Ryotaiku 50/50
In his "Worst player ever" video he said he usually DMs
Ryotaiku 99/100
90:10 is my guess he says he usually DMs and rarely plays
About 99/100.
When your DM is like, "Ya'll being creative? Well Trollololl!"
Chris Perkins?
Now let's all agree to never be creative again
"Net is not a creative trap"
I used the hallway of traps from Xanathar's Guide to Everything as a boss for a bunch of 3rd-level characters. Pretty fun for them to figure out.
That poor, poor Gnome. He died a very painful, confusing death.
and that friends, is why i love D&D
Now look at this *_N E T_*
That I just found!
When I say go,
be ready to throw!
GO!
*_T H R O W I T A T H I M N O T M E ! !_*
Choice Snarf WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Oh, let's try something else!
Choice Snarf C R U N C H
Now watch and learn here's the deal
He's going to slip and slide on this banana peel
Saw it comming but it's weird none of the party members noticed it was the gnome they saw 10min before they were attacking...
As soon as I heard the plan, I knew he would use the gnome.
This needs to be the new zelda month.
I think it is
That's PBG though ._.
I was going to say "Now that's what I call PB&J" but then I remembered PB&Jeff is a thing.
Underscorer How about Peanutbutter Pro Jirard the Finishist?

I've filled a sack with caltops to make a one-shot weapon before.
Could someone animate these stories ?

There is one for the balista bat.
@@johnwestensnorris6391 was just about the say that
I love how you can just tell by his reactions and movements how excited Jared is to revisit these memories. And I truly love that he shares those storys with us! Jared is the final reason which brought me to try: D&D. And I love it. Especially because I got the part of the DM and it's a perfect job! So: Thank you Jared for sharing your joyful memories with us! - Greetings from germany!
WEll these videos are well done, keep it up, really appreciate the format since you explain EVERYTHING in any videos you do, going from items and what they are to the magics and what they do... To even what a certain number roll means in whatever the thing you are explaining! It is awesome, since people like me who doesn't play d&d can understand everything in each vid.
Wow, you can be evil as a DM, I'd even say Chaotic Evil.
Naw, a chaotic evil DM would throw things at them they couldn't possibly beat or make traps they can't avoid just to "win".
Jared (at least here) was a Lawfull Evil DM, following the exact words of his players and abusing that to his advantage.
I'd go so far as to say he was Lawful Good, since he gave them the satisfaction of their trap working and a cool boss battle on top of it. Having cake and eating it, anyone?
ExileTwilight you mean like a 30 x 30 foot trap door triggered by a central pressure plate that drops into a pit filled with flaming spikes, which then closes above them while oil pours into the room from holes located near the top, to finish with a giant boulder that drops into the pit after it fills?
Zeta Phi Something like that, sure.
ROCKS FALL, EVERYONE DIES!
I had no idea Macaulay Culkin played Dungeons and Dragons.
Loving this year's D&December, Jared. Keep it up! D&December is what got me into D&D, so I'm really happy to see it continue.
I love d&december! I love the vibe these videos give off, and just hearing you talk about your adventures is entertaining!
I, when I was very new, bought an anvil to start because i was playing a dwarf. literally the only reason i bought it and well I dropped it off a cliff and loony tooned a guy guarding the entrance to a cave next to an alarm pulley.
Screw it, rolling a wizard with a fuckton of oil and any cantrip that can set it on fire.
Crossbow is a good idea too.
Jared, I consider this series your personal Christmas gift to us all. Thank you. :3 Hype to see the tale or review we end this year on!
been waiting all year for this to come back, really, and this story has already made it worth it to me. keep it coming!
Nothing is ever useless, it's just waiting for the right situation :D even the 10 foot pole has at least 3 uses arguably that I can think of.
SolarFlair I can think of at least ten.
1. Pokey Stick (5 can be used to poke the Grinch)
2. Pole Vault
3. Spit-roast frame
4. 2 can be used to make a litter with some fabric.
5. You can whack stuff with it.
6. Fishing pole
7. Staff-sling shaft.
8. Tent poles
9. Firewood
10. Boat push pole
Well if you're gunna be a showoff :'D I just meant off the top of my head. You managed to get 2 of my uses though. But really 1 and 5 are the same thing. Third one was Using it to trip people.
1) Set up as maypole outside goblin encampment, while they are distracted by the festivities steal all their shit.
2) Whittle down one end to be about 4 and a half inches thick, carve a 4 1/2 inch 6 inch deep hole in the other end. Bingo: world's largest wooden condom.
3) Take 2 10 foot poles, wrap the canvas of a tent around them: instant stretcher.
4) Fire a Scorching Ray spell down the centre of the pole and submerge it in water to put out any flames. you now have a didgeridoo.
5) Stop me if you've heard this one before: you walk into town with a cooking pot full of water and a ten foot pole and set up a small campfire, you place the pole in the pot and begin boiling. when people come to ask you what you're doing tell them you're making "10 Foot Pole Soup", and that it's quite delicious. Eventually someone will be adventurous to ask you if they can have some and agree, on the condition they provide an ingredient such as onions, potatoes, carrots, salt or herbs "for seasoning". repeat until you have soup, remove 10 foot pole, serve.
6) Play a Bard. Persuade your GM to allow you to use it as a quaterstaff, Sing "I'll make a man out of you" during every combat to give people Inspiration Die, Get killed for singing "I'll make a man out of you" during every combat.
7) Design Flag, place Flag on the end of pole. Plonk flag in ground and claim that land in the name of your god. if anyone protests remind them that they don't have a flag and you do, "thems the rules".
8) Practice your caber toss skills for when you run into scotsmen, after all it's the one accent literally everybody can do so be prepared for when your GM inevitably falls back on his Sean Connery impression
9) Need to know the time of the day without relying on wind up clocks or magic spells? Set up a sundial, this doesn't work if you're in the underdark but then again there you can just use dangle your leg off the beaten path and your Hitpoints as a countdown timer.
10) Learn to throw 10 ft pole. Take Tablecloth (which is a surface, not an object that can be "closed") and inscribe it with Glyphs of Warding full of damaging spells/explosive runes. Wrap tablecloth around 10 ft pole. Throw into enemy camp. Stand back. (note this only works if you take GoW as written, you probably won't get away with doing this twice.)
If one of those isn't using it to stimulate a giant's prostate, then you're a very different person than I am.
11: Peasant Railgun
That's some pro trolling right there Jared.
Your D&December episodes have inspired me to get a group of my friends together and meet up to try it. We're all completely new to D&D so some of your more beginner oriented videos have been helpful, so thanks and keep up the great work.
Jared is an amazing story teller, he really has a way of getting me immersed in his stories. I can pretty much visualize everything he says as fast as he tells it
Dafuq is this Tom and Jerry Malarkey
I'd love to play D&D with you, but these stories are great too. I can tell your a great Dungeon Master, as most wouldn't allow this amount of creativity.
So... the master mind wasn't supposed to find the sword sticking through the door suspicious?
And here I thought the twist would be
"The target heard everything including the plan because you all loudly set a trap up for like 20 minutes."
I KNEW THEY ATTACKED THE GNOME. I JUST KNEW IT.
wow... that poor gnome
My marathon of rewatching, liking, and commenting on every Jared video continues. Video 63
Wow great story Jared! Thats the first time ive ever heard of anything awesome come from the random equipment you buy after character creation. Most of the time its just an after thought so its sweet to see someone making the most of their character like that.
I get to play my first game of D&D in like 3 years tonight!
You're such a great storyteller, honestly very entertaining to watch! I love DnDecember; truly shows your storytelling and narrative capabilities.
The longer the story went on I was thinking ''it's gonna be the gnome isn't it'' because I caught onto that ''someone'' quip. Ah god it makes me wanna join a DnD group but I don't know where to look here
Thanks for making these. I really wish there was more of this kind of stuff on TH-cam.
R.I.P. in peace friendly gnome he was too young to die D:
I feel bad for that gnome. Poor guy, all he did was work.
I KNEW it was going to be the gnome that sprung the trap as soon as you said "the first thing to come through that door."
I fucking love D&December. Idk why but it's so good. Keep it up Jared. Please do this every year
6:01 NOW LOOK AT THIS NET, THAT I JUST FOUND!
NO DON'T TOUCH THAT
These videos are going to get me into D&D.
I knew the moment you said "as soon as 'someone' walks through the that door" that the poor gnome was in trouble XD
I love these stories they're so engaging and you're so passionate about them. Stories like this are what really makes me want to get into d&d some day
Hey, that little intro card with the dragon and the music from the DnD arcade games is probably the best thing on TH-cam.
Could you do a video on homebrew content?
Between this and the Ballista Bat from last year, it sounds like Jared stacks his games with solid players. Sometimes being a good DM is all about having a good group of core players who are able to bounce off each other...something that can be a bit harder in pick up games.
Did you at least bury that poor gnome?
Irreverent Seraph Bury it? This is D&D, we'll just drunkenly stumble into the next room
Do not forsake the wrath of the Gnome Gods...they will rise up out of the gardens and have their vengeance.....
Thank you for all of these, I love d and d so much and there are so few people
I love hearing tales like this that come out of D&D sessions. Just the unconventional or awkward plays that a player makes trying to use cunning to overcome an obstacle. Frankly, I think I'd be inclined to try similar strategies if I ever did play.
ALL the Robbie Rotten references up in here
#RipThatGnome
I love Jared's storytelling because the parts of the story he straight up just forgets make it seem more legit than some guy detailing exactly what happened word for word
8:08
That sound is REALLY satisfying. Like, I've watched this video four times just to hear that sound.
The Trap a la Rube Goldburg
As soon as you said "the moment someone walks through the door", I knew how this would end. Thanx for sharing!
I fucking called it!! I knew that gnome was going to spring the trap as soon as you said he was going to get his master
I would like to play D&D but I have no friends.
Eclipseknight9 me neither, my friends think its stupid
I have the perfect solution: Roll20, a online platform to play d&d online with other people, i think there are forums of people who call others to play it, making groups online and shit. If i remember correctly you can play it with a voice chat or face cam. I hope i could help solving your little issue :D
Dark Jager Thanks for the info. I'll check it out.
+Dark Jäger Thanks :D Ill take a look when Ive got some time.
That poor gnome
oh well
"And the pot fell on his head with a BOOIIINNGGG!"
I'm just dying right now.
At one point as he described the trap being designed, ProJared for a second turned into Lindybeige.
I am a giant character right now I currently have a whole water skin multiplied up for a giant filled with holywater it is like 1.5 gallons of holy water lol
Jessie TheMedic that sounds useful for fighting undead
eggguy20
it was not as we side stepped every single undead that we could have used it on and just murdered the big bad in 2 rounds because I smashed his statues in a show of force outside of combat with one swing they turned out to had been his guards meant to complicate his fight but my sword was adamantine sharp enough to cut most anything at level 3 infact no one in the part should have been able to use this weapon it was just flavor to a shop to show how hard adamantine was to forage in this world they had to make the sword big cuz they could not cut it down smaller I joined later and was a giant sooooo... I made it a goal to get the sword lol did get it =v free too LOL
For the love of Diath, can someone PLEASE animate this? Thanks in advance.
Patrick Froysland Someone get this to the top!
Patrick Froysland diath?
UNKNOWN Jared’s character in D&D.
@@pmf98 the rouge one right Mr.Woodrow
Im pretty much watching all of this years videos and re-watching last years to prep for my first game. I used Jared's ''make an interesting character" advice to heart and made a tiefling assassin with crippling social anxiety.
I gave a character a bag of ball bearings just because I want to make a villain fall from their tower/bridge/high-rise/other tall structure in the most ridiculous, slipped-on-a-banana-peel moment ever.
6:01 Now look at this net!
THROW IT AT HIM NOT ME!
stevensays1 that I just found
stevensays1 when I say go get ready to throw
stevensays1 GO
You're a lovable carebear GM, if my party deliberated that long the guy would have walked in after the first minute.
I was hoping the ending twist was what I thought it would be and it was. Well played to all involved.
i don't think i have laughed this hard at a d&d story in a long time!
Your players are amazing
The greatest trap was Charlie's DM.
The music in the background is absolutely perfect for this story.
such a great DM play!!! you basically gave them the wish spell for someone to come in
6:02
NOW LOOK AT THIS NET
THAT I JUST FOUND
Throw it at Him not Gnome!
It took the evil wizard 45 minutes to get back? xD
pokemonduck The evil wizard has Bowel cancer.
oh man that ending man. i haven't laughed so hard since me and a buddy snuck into a bandit camp and pored laxatives, and mind breaking drugs into the camps entire cask of ale. one of the best campaigns I've ever had.
may we have D&December this year. Will surely watch it
I saw that outcome a mile away. Good job as a DM!
Yeah, but that journey to the end tho...
You should play an actual game at the end of d and December
Mikimaki 7267 There's an ongoing series of him playing DnD
Vaughnsta thanks for informing me
Well... how do you do, Mr. Lawyer dude?
