    Beautiful. Thank you for doing this.
    My favourite is when they all get stunned except for Jester and Laura figures out like one of three options out of thousands or millions that could possibly save fucking everyone AND THEN not one of them, but an inanimate object fucks it up, Travis rolling the nat 20 and becoming the target, it's just perfect. THIS is how you know it's not scripted. Show me a person who could come up with this shit.
    Bonus points for Travis realizing what happened. Perfect expression.
    Honorable mention (totally unrelated) of Laura's sweatshirt in the time of quarantine.

    Does the sea turtle technically count? It couldn't attack Fjord because it was in the water, but it still was faster than and tried to attack their ship, which Fjord was captaining.
    And this most recent time, I think, is technically the first time turning something into a turtle has worked, and they still kind of had to struggle with it.

      You mean the Dragon Turtle? Technically they're Dragon type, not Beast type so it's more accurate to think of it as a dragon than a turtle. IIRC they did polymorph it into a regular turtle to outpace and escape it but it didn't attack anyone in that form. I might be remembering that encounter wrong though. It's been a while.

      @@Cyb3rM1nd Yeah they turned it into a sea turtle and then discovered that the sea turtle was faster than their ship when it kept trying to attack them. They ended up eventually turning it into a sea slug to get away from it. Polymorph never seems to work the way they intend it to on the first try.

      It was a feature when Legendary had them on Alpha. Which was a parent company that owned Geek and Sundry.
      That company, and the chinese Corp that owned it, really didn't understand the audience and ruined a number of things under their management.
      That being said it was a fun little feature. I tend to like that kind of transparency and accessibility in Actual Plays.
      Though with the kerfuffle and the amount of time they've done with out it I don't see CR bringing it back.
      At least not without a lot of fan input demanding it.

      Octopus. They have basically no land speed and can hold their breath out of water for 30 minutes. In an Armor of Agathys situation, simply stay in its threatened area until someone else can scoop it up and carry it to a far corner of the map. (If you're feeling crafty and have an alchemy jug or decanter of endless water as well as a DM who finds this sort of thing funny, you could try rigging up a makeshift tank to make sure it doesn't go off until the spell naturally ends.)
