I swear aguefort is the most realistic depiction of what a DND adventure would look like after years of adventuring, just off his ass crazy and ready to fuck shit up at a moments notice
For Wizards, 10 years in school equals 1 month of insane almost-dying adventuring seems to be how it plays out. The wild whimsical relationship to your spellbook, the manic calculations of temperature as they relate to atmospheric pressure as they relate to subtle variables in the amount of components used based on hundreds of different possible scrnarios, calculating the proper use of somatic movements as they relate to verbal components, memorizing all of this for the next day's spells for the perfect crescendo of making fire shoot out of your eyes based on the particular set of circumstances where hand and mouth movements can alter the variables of the equation, the PTSD of not holding the high note of the "IGNEESE" IG-syllable at the right decibel to compensate for the position of the sun as a failing of your spell memorization the prior night, breaking the equation you tried so hard to get just right and killing a friend by way of not calculating well enough. Not having the proper intelligence to hold all of these variables in-mind, needing ultra-human intelligence from magic items to increase your already top 0.0001% baseline intelligence enough to not go insane trying to wrack your brain around it, needing the experience to become proficient at the art of executing on the web of variables of all these exponentially harder to logic out spells demand. Not being smart enough, your friends not giving you the time to pour over it because they want to socialize. How can they understand the seeming mysticism of trying to solve the calculus that accurately asks the laws of reality to save them, the impossible complexity of it, inventing a series of relative miracles 10 times a day every day, how it works? Sharing insane-seeming symbols that you with your unique interpretation of the math use to rationalize it, runes and symbols with references to appendixes that that are 25 pages long that account for all the uncontrollables and how to account for them for the desired outcome, pages and pages of slight differences in hand movement, voice, component, that are the difference between life and death? It's alien. You're alone. Every failing is measurably your fault. The gap between you and perfect understanding is the degree to which you let the things you care about burn. There is a perfect you that you can not be, by way of your failing to understand the variables. Viscerally relating to life that way is what allows you to be a Wizard in the first place. It is always your fault, that you could but failed to understand the nuances of Meteor Swarm. You could force that dictator to spread hope among millions, but you can't quite grasp how Programmed Amnesia is cast. Imagine for a second being likable and sharing the thing you live and breath and spend all your time obsessing about. Do you have 5 years to teach people to appreciate you? No, you must build a seperate persona that you wear for every social interaction, hiding the you you most value under layers of pleasantries. The way you think, what you value, must never be spoken, it's so abstract and particular to you, sharing it at the level you value automatically causes it to be worthless to others. Sharing it at its lowest relatable level, you're a college professor talking to kindergarteners and it's demeaning/manipulative to even try. Only other powerful Wizards might get somewhere minorly close to actually understanding. Their personal psychosis of deep diving reality enough to bend it in the way they uniquely can is guarenteed to be vastly different though, so they're work friends at best. Arthur is a perfect example of hitting level 20 by way of the mega-trauma flavor of that, then going a bit insane trying to not obsess over it, and building something meaningful from his unique valuable perspective after "retiring". Causing hope in the future is tough, there's a math equation out there that could do it, but it'd take a white board the size of a planet and the understanding to match to do right on Wizard terms. Dive into the whimsical unknowables of people and their experiences, inspire a new generation. Supplant a diety on accident while doing it. The becoming a god among men Wizard life ain't easy.
I have to admit I was as surprised as Lou when I found out Eggfort was black😂 I imagined him in a 1950s esc man with a clean cut and beige suit(cause I’m basic) but this was way better just a crazy British black man in a purple suit completely drunk and wasted with power and understanding of the universe😂🤣
Looking back at it, in Ep1 Brennan does describe him as having "very dark skin", but it's easily missed. And I guess it could depend on context - if you were already picturing a white guy, you might have pictured him with "dark skin for a white guy", like maybe very tanned.
Arthur Aguefort is like Dumbledore if he was more balls to the wall insane but actually gave a 🐀's 🍑 about the physical and mental well being of his students
I plan to try to find as many people as I can to fund me buying an AppleVR headset, and after I get it all set up whoever has helped me get it being able to donate for the chance to sway my behavior
This man snuck into heaven, knocked out god, and started running the celestial heights. That’s the exact opposite of “I will leap into hell and kill the devil Himself!”
This one line just describes the entire reason Arthur became an educator. "Ah, Adventurers. Doing what ever we want, with NO consequences. THE AGUEFORT WAY!!!"
One thing with Mr. Gibbins that always get me is that I’m pretty sure he shows up at the arcade and NOBODY NOTICES. You hear Brennan do his whole thing about “ A lot of strong feelings” in his voice and nobody connects the dots with him
I feel like 19:35 is the start of an incredibly underrated bit. "You don't fuck with a wizard" is great, but "Any other federal agents want to step to Arthur Aguefort on the grounds of his school? That would be my question" is maybe the hardest I've laughed at one of Brennan's NPCs
I looked for this video almost exclusively for the Gilear becoming Vice-Principal thing. I just love imagining how much he would hate working with Aguefort.
High level wizards either: 1. Succumb to the inescapably evil search for Lichdom. 2. Fully embrace the absurdity of their reality by revelling in eccentricity. There are no other options.
The exchange between Kristen and Arthur in Heaven when she dies the second time is just- I can so cleary picture every single line being delivered in like a pretty damn well written Netflix show
Arthur Aguefort, a man of seemingly infinite magical might, who works incredible, vast, miracles of magic that never seem to really have an effect on the situation or help anyone out.
Any Wizard who got powered up in the adventuring "got to level 20 through a few years of almost dying over and over" sorta way ought to end up with Arthur energy
Arthur Auegford is the most powerful wizard , can stop time and used his magic exactly 2 times. Just to fuck with the police . Litteraly everything else he does using a straight up gun
Hey being the most powerful wizard in the world also means your smart enough to realize that if a problem can be solved with a gun. You might as well just solve it with a gun spell slots are a hot commodity after all.
I just realized that at 3:50 he set up two Peter bits. One being the what’s the greatest magic it’s CRONOMANCY TF ARE YOU ON ABOUT LOOOVE?!?! And the other is that he disliked his tea there because goldenrod has to make his tea different every time as part of the deal
The quoting of Alanis morsette lyrics sent me and I had to pause and rewind after the beauty of his final words and then the straight MERCING of mr gibbons
The bit in Sol’s office confirmed it for me, this man is Wizard Rick. He has the same power and energy. He carries a gun that can kill a level 20 wizard in one shot and can wound angels. I’m scared of him in the best way possible
I love that when we are first introduced to him he's mostly put together, just a old man that's fun. When he dies and gets cured of the poisoned tea his real personality breaks out and hes just absolutely crazy. So basically, a really horrible poison that would kill a normal person, just makes his personality "noraml and hinged".
Aguefort: “A hero is one who goes to strange lands and exacts violence to things there.” Me, a military man: “Sounds about right.” Aguefort: “…scrapes with the law, otherwise engaged in all matters of tomfoolery sometimes shenanigans, sometimes Violence.” Me, remembering my times in the barracks: “Yup. That’s us. iM A hERO!”
Coming back to this, having watched the after show segment, knowing that Brennan’s CAREER was basically on the line, his future at Dropout, hinging on the first two episodes and then two PC deaths happen. The fact he improved that whole murder suicide, got the reaction he needed, and could figure out things from there is amazing
"You've created a new deity and already you're fed up with it. I would say that's par for the course." This line gets me every time, it's so funny and doesn't get enough attention.
I swear aguefort is the most realistic depiction of what a DND adventure would look like after years of adventuring, just off his ass crazy and ready to fuck shit up at a moments notice

This man snuck into heaven, knocked out god, and started running the celestial heights.
That’s the exact opposite of “I will leap into hell and kill the devil Himself!”
bill seacaster and arthur aguefort are two sides of the same coin what can I say
Unless Aguefort is Australian
“I’m currently running on two hours of sleep, suicidal thoughts, and an Oreo, and I’m ready to fight God… OR BECOME HIMMMMMM
Oh god those two can never meet
Aguefort's counterpart: Lil Nas X
16:05 I feel like “is Arthur Agufort black?” Is a criminally under-rated moment.
Literally the entire reason I'm here! Pure iconic.
I also love that Brennan is just very nonchalantly like "Yeah :)"
It was the perfect response

The perfect way to write an OP character into a story without making it about them.

Played by Sam Jackson.
Lou's reaction to Agufort bringing them back is the best
I thought the same about Siobhan!

i love how much Brennan was thrown off by "is Arthur Aguefort black? Hell yes."
"everything in this world is bullshit,[...] understanding how is the key..."
That's genuinely good advice.

6:41 I straight up turned it down to .25x speed just to watch the looks on the cast’s faces when Aguefort shoots Mr. Gibbons and himself
Just what I was looking for!
