- This animated Dungeons and Dragons Story comes from a funny Tomb of Annihilation game in which the players investigated an ancient evil in an underground lake and the encounter something down there they weren't quite expecting. Hope you guys enjoy!

He clearly ate Absrud and has his memories.
Molandria so that explains it
I think he originally was entirely evil, trapping and slaughtering everyone he encountered, and latter on came Abserd, who was dumped by his group. The Aboleth killed and ate him, but Abserd being... well Abserd, with all his classes and all, his consciousness overwhelmed the Aboleth and spilt his personalities into Original monster and Abserd ^^
Ghizghuth yeah abserd!!!
Wouldn't he call himself Abserd after that, not whimsy ? :)
Idk I think abserd is pretty... whimsical
"They call me Whims-"
*"INSIGHT CHECK!"*
Players: *Encounter any NPC*
NPC: *Is nice*
Players: *"INSIIIIIIGHT!!!!"*
It's the only way...that doesn't involve violence.
Its how DnD players say hello!
sense motive is the best way to start a conversation
That’s a good way to create a Jonathan Jostar character.
Petition to let Whimsy become a mascot for the channel
I'll sigh it.

Cheers!!!
Heck yeah get my signature! We need the evil and nice Whimsy; like the spilt personality he is. :)
TAKE MY SIGNATURE
Abserd multi-classed into being an aboleth .
Really, it was the only path remaining to him, after he'd dipped 1 level into every character class.
Clearly, Whimsy is Abserd's Warlock Patron.
@@ebonstone2980 This. This is true.
@@ebonstone2980 Very true.
Jeff 666th like
We really need an Abserd / Whimsy buddy cop movie. One's a ancient, forgotten evil with a split personality, the other can't hold down a job. Together , they fig... flounder about? I mean c'mon... "Abserd Whimsy" alone is gold.
I can picture it now:
Police Chief:Abserd! Whimsy! You two are loose canons!
Abserd:But how can Abserd being a canon? Abserd is person, canon is not person!
Whimsy:Canons are dangerous!
You should have rage, detective savage " savage rage" rage
To be honest Puffin could make a side series about the random pc's or npc's he and his players encounter. That would be awesome. Abserd, Whimsy, the suicidal cleric, Trixy Starbright, Detective Savage "savage rage" Rage, Dick Tracy, Justin time, and everyone's favorite bird who adorably thinks hes people Flyn. Hell the whole video could be all those characters playing a DND game together and the hilarity ensues as Puffin is the game master trying to keep the game running.
Abserd & Whimsy in The Mysterious Gazebo Caper
YES
that aboleth really earned that level up.
Now, here me out on this. Imagine that instead of Cthullu giving Abserd his powers, it was Whimsey.
Hey! You wanna have some powers, li'l guy?
How do you not know the difference between here/hear?
TheBlarggle Yes i do.🦄
@@TheBlarggle bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
@@TheBlarggle really...
The moment you said “They’re gonna be so pissed off” I was expecting an instant kill or something, not that...
same
No good dm runs instant kills
Banana colada
Now THAT'S how you subvert expectations.
@@jaimeparker2161 Depending on the definition of instakill, I agree, but the old school DMs did have, for example, instakill traps that you'd trigger unless you were (sometimes ridiculously) careful.
However, nowadays the norm is that the players really have to disregard their common sense before instakill is one die roll away.
I was expecting Abolith the moment I heard tentacles...
I was not expecting Whimsy.
I was expecting a kraken. My players fear them much more the aboleths.
I went with Abolith over other tentacly monsters because of the telepathy.
That's Abolith 101, along with psychically fucking with their lessers.
But what is life without a little whimsy in it?
I was thinking it was a fucking Beholder or some shit
No one expects Whimsey. He is unexpectable - like the Spanish Inquisition :D
Why do adventures always have to take place in places like *"THE TOMB OF ANNIHIALITION"* why not sit down and run a game through " The graveyard of the peacefully resting deceased"
Not enough interesting stuff there
Peacefully Resting... Until necromancers happen...
Bronze “the legend of Detective Rage”
Last saturday, my players just kind of decided to have a nice 30 minute fishing trip. In real life 30 minutes. So we all talked about random things, and, as the DM, at unexpected times, I'd slam the table and yell "A FISH! A FISH IS ON THE HOOK!" and they'd have to roll strength in like, 2 seconds or it would get away. I scared the crap out of them, and we all had lots of fun. They caught 2 fish, and our warlock's dragon pet ate the fish.
You find yourself wandering through town and find that they are preparing for some kind of celebration, after asking around you are directed toward the town cleric, adorned in black cloak he appears to be praying in language you don't understand, As He slowly turns to face the party he draws back his hood. Revealing his face to be that of rotting flesh. He tells you you've entered the graveyard of the peacefully Resting deceased and those outside are preparing to meet their loved ones who have all dead for quite some time. He tells the party he been keeping the peace for several generations and warns the party of dangers of disrupting celebration. He informs them of rumors of approaching paladins who seeks to burn the village down for a righteous cause. What does the party do?
Whimsy = Abserd Final Form
"Dis isn't even my final form!" That Wimzie is the best purest thing ever!
Maybe it is the other way round. Abserd is the good part of its personality the Aboleth ejected.
who else imagined Abserd transforming into an aboleth Super Saiyan Style?
Years ago, just after gygax died, my group decided to do a ad&d campaign in honor of him. We rolled up lvl 9 characters with random loot, one of the things I got was a potion of Ghost control. When I rolled this up I said "wow, this will be useless." The first thing we as a group do is find ourselves in a house before the through the looking glass adventure starts. We explore the house and in the attic we find a ghost. We roll initiative and I get the first spot, I immediately down the potion and he fails his save. He is now charmed. He gives us all his treasure up there along with all the information we could want. Later on we find out he is stuck in the attic and can't leave. When the potion wears off we hear a scream of agony as he realizes what has happened. Good times.
This is why I want to get into D&D, this sounds like an incredibly fun time.
Potions that you essentially mind control someone are always overpowered regardless of what kind of conditions they have.
7:41 You may not like it but this is what peak aboleth performance looks like
Some random shit XD
XD XD
“What is he doing?”
“He’s beginning to believe”
This reminds me of a game I ran years ago. I had the players run into a very large, talking serpent... who was an absolute moron. One of the players said something like "You're sentient, then?" the snake asked what he meant, and so the player told him it meant he could talk and was smart. At this point the snake was like "I aaaaaaaaaaaaam?" and the player responded with "well, you can talk, at any rate".
Lmao, can I steal this?
Go for it, lol.
Zack Toor
Thanks!
"The ability to speak does not make you intelligent."
Ahh reminds me of the loving but damn right retarded fighter we once met. My god was he hillarious. I loved the fun we had with him I especially remember one interaction with him.
"Hey so you have been a fighter for a long time havent you A?" (He picked that name himself since he couldn't remember his own name and A was easy to remember since it was the first letter!)
"Yea for like..5..maybe 28 years!..have you ever gotten any hits to the heads?! HUNDREDS!!!"
Kinda explained his situation and fucking hell it was brilliant.
Reminds me of The Worst Assassin Ever. My players decided to dick around and party at a club rather than play the story, so I decided to push the story along and sent an assassin to murder the party leader on the dance floor. A couple of nat 1's later and my hapless assassin trips on his own robes and accidentally commits seppuku in front of everyone. (This is after shouting "death to my enemies!")
What happened next still baffles me. The party took so much pity on him they healed him back from the brink of death, sat him at the bar, and bought him drinks and snacks. This is the same party that would later not give a damn about a murder that occurred during a zombie outbreak, or at another time attacked a poor gnome that was simply doing his job of repairing a dungeon.
I swear I had the most unpredictable players.
I have the same experience. When you present your players with obviously hapless npcs that need to be saved they just ignore them because it's boring.
I remember during a game of Pugmire I had an alchemy shop ran by an orange cat with stripes named max. Everytime they visited him they stole healing potions from him by having a player with high charisma distract him. In one occasion he rolled a nat 20 so max the cat was convinced that he found someone as passionate about mushrooms as himself and would let everything he was doing down to talk to his new friend while the other party members would steal from him.
Later on the campaign the town was set ablaze by a tribe of roaming badgers, and civilians were dying left right and center. I'm sure you can imagine what the party did, they inmediately went to the alchemy shop to save Max the gullible cat. They loved him and were genuinely worried that max would have died. I allowed max to survive of course, the players were so relieved. Never stole from him again either. fun game.
Just try to play with my players and they will get things done in ways I never thought about or planned
I guess even murderhobos would feel bad after watching someone crit fail themselves into accidental suicide. It is the slightest hint of, what do you call it, empathy?
Frankly, that group sounds pretty predictable to me. Basically the opposite of what you expect / want for them to do is what they're doing.
Stabbing yourself right after shouting “death to my enemies” is a whole-ass mood tho
That precious Aboleth definitely needs to have more cameos!!!
You made a dozen eyes for one evil spirit. That's... impressive.
Yeah, it’s really eye catching.
Eye see what you did there. It was a little dry. Maybe try using drops.
Penis.
DeathSoul V-yola same
I feel like wimssy and abserd would have been the best of friends
Omg yes
Well that's an abserd friendship
It would be the perfect plan, the evil personality would be so annoyed by abserd that it would go ahead and let the other one take over every time he hears abserds voice, banishing it forever.
WolfWhiteFire Or it would eat Abserd and then there'd be TWO of those guys in there and the third Evil one would off itself.
Yes
What happens if this crazy aboleth passes on his memories to the next generation? Will they realize what happened, and how this aboleth has a dual personality? Will they acquire the dual personality itself?
That does bring up a question
It would depend on how the memories and knowledge are carried over. If it is literally every memory and anything attached then the personality would be carried over (since part of your personality is based on the culmination of ever single emotion related to your memories.) However, if it's just the memories as if they were a film then you may not even realise there was a split personality, since all you would know is that sometimes he acts evil and sometimes he acts good, with no apparent explanation.
What if it's like the Tok'ra in Stargate SG-1? Where Egeria chose not to pass along the evil memories. The aboleth child might see their options and choose to let their offspring have the choice of a more hopeful life!
I hereby put forth that when Whimsy dies, the memories that transition into the memory-pool should be whichever personality was dominant at the time of its death.
@@pallyboy6005 or as two new aboleth one good and one more evil than any aboleth before it.
WHY IS THE GIANT FLOATING GUARDIAN FACE SO ADORABLE?????
Easier to murder them
All that treasure, just for being friends. What a nice, evil Aboleth.
The teasure probably came from other people the evil side has killed.
Jojo reference
is ゴゴthatゴゴ aゴゴ motherfrikinゴゴ jojoゴゴ reffrenceゴゴ?
Not everything is a Jojo reference!
no, because universe exists in JoJo that means that everything is a JoJo reffrence
Just watching and rewatching this over and over, I can't get enough of whimsy.
"I'm having lots of fun talking to you guys, you should come out on the lake, it'll be lots of fun!...
... * *MURDER* !!!!*"
I'm dying guys, XD
Well that’s what happens when you trust a monster telepathically speaking to you... you die! You need to be afraid of them then they will turn out to be nice :D
I was reading this right when he said that. lol.
I'm going to be honest, I would love a Whimsy plushie,
Look at how cute he is!
this is the next best thing.

Look up the real aboleths
No, not a plushie. A rubber toy that you can take to the bath and go "splish splish splish."
@@monokumaprincipalofhopespe8295 I did exactly that while drawing an Aboleth warlock once. Safe to say my drawing was a bit more accurate than puffin's, but damn Aboleths look fucking weird. You wouldn't guess what they look like off of the official 3.5e description of them alone.
Guys
GUYS
Isn't this the Obelisk party??????
No wonder they screamed "Insight Check!"
We all ready dealt with Ganon last week I need answers now Insight Check!!!!!
I would love if you threw wimsy at another campaign, where one guy from the old group knew what was going on but couldn’t break character to tell everybody, and he sees your grin as you ask another play to roll the dice. If I was a dm I would love to reuse this guy but I would mess something up
Oh man, that would be amazing!!!
I absolutely adore his evil personality and the voice he uses, the roleplaying for the plotting and waiting in the darkness is perfect.
Sometimes the big evil ancient powerful monster just needs a friend to talk to. Monsters are creatures too ya know...
He's...
Precious
Players don't figure out puzzles, they figure out ways to cheat the puzzles (that probably take more time than the puzzles)
yeah... I modeled a dungeon after the water temples in Legend of Zelda. My players got the antagonists to help them solve the master puzzle.
I was part of a group that can across a lock that need to be opened by solving a puzzle. Only to find out that the lock was not even keeping the door we needed to open. It was just there and we presumed we needed to open it.
In the old advanced Dungeons and Dragons the disintegrate spell was very good at that, and could wreak the rotating rooms.
I was recently a paladin introduced into a campaign basically to help with the puzzle since my group was stuck on it for like 6 hours. We ended up having to slit open our arms for a blood sacrifice at one point. Luckily I had 3rd level lay on hands so ultimately the cuts and losing like 2 pints of blood each meant absolutely nothing to the group
No body like the comment! It has 69!
I like Cute/ Derp monster. He's my third favorite after Abserd and Dick.
Bryce Mckenzie What about Trixie Starbright
Trixie.s trixie.s Trixie. S
And Detective Savage Rage
Really? No comments about how obvious it should be that OP likes dick, or other people, who like dick, too?
You guys are letting Bryce down.
Karanthaneos Detective Savage "Savage Rage" Rage...
Just imagining how screwed they would've been. If they had been lucky and just got the nice version and at the last moment got the murder one and weren't prepared for the fight. And just get murked by what they thought was a child.
Yeah, this was the best of all worlds scenario. They got the evil one so they could prep for the big fight but ended up not having to, it's a win-win.
I remember Matt Mercer running the puzzle. His voice for "the voice" was hilarious
Where did Matt run this? Would love to watch it
Same, I need to see it
still waiting for link or even name of that game.

It’s somewhere in this storyline
Narrator: "he comes up from the water with his big tentacles and grins"
Player: "Omg he is going to kill us"
Abolith: "Hi, can I have a hug from one of you. oh your adventures, well here take this big stack of gold worth a million dollars, and all I ask for is being friends"
Me: "it's so adorable"
No hugs from Abby... They are covered in goo that makes you breath water and suffocate in air. That is an effect that I doubt can be suppressed.

remember that obelisk?
we dont talk about the obelisk
It is meeee whimseyy, and this piggy told me to take my arms and squish uuuhu
8:30 "Oh, look at that! He leveled up!"
Ahahahahahaha...
So I have a really ridiculous story about an Aboleth. I was a very... scholarly... barbarian gnome. My weakness was knowledge, especially rare knowledge. (High Int, Low Wis) The party was going into the underdark, and I start hearing a voice. It promises me a glorious library, if I go to it. So, well, *I* know it's probably not good things. My character? Nah, thinks this is the best day of his life. He's down. "What's the worst that could happen?"
We find the lake, everyone is like "OKay, we found it, let's go on to our regular purpose for coming down here now?"
And then the Aboleth appears. It's not immediately murderous. It appears quite friendly. I do roll insight when it promises to take my character down to show off the library, and fail that roll. So my character *purposely fails* the constitution save to not have water-breathing. Cool, so the Aboleth takes my character down into the depths of the lake (the whole party has written me off as dead), and then insanity really begins.
5e changed grapple mechanics, so when the Aboleth revealed it had *not* brought my character to a vast underwater library, I (with my wonderful strength mod and lucky roll) managed to escape its grasp. Then, because of a feat I had, I can swim just fast enough to stay out of reach, while it spends the next four rounds trying to grab my gnomely self again.
And then I reach the shore, and have to hold my breath (take con checks) to leave the water. A minion of some kind appears to try to get everyone to the Aboleth (i don't remember what it was), and one of the party members has a bag of holding, which the DM allows us to fill up with water and put me in until the water breathing wears off.
We all lived. I don't remember what we needed from the underdark, but we did not get it that time, and returned to the surface.
I think the DM might have been nerfing the Aboleth a bit, based on your descriptions. I feel kinda bad, because my character caused a lot of messes in the campaign, but honestly I think the DM engineered most of them. (My backstory had the most promising hooks, I think.)
It was fun, and chaotic.
Whimsy is precious boi
ThegreenRex Protect him at A L L costs!
I agree
Wow. Just wow. Now, what would have been really impressive would be if your players could figure out a way to destroy / exorcise / remove the evil personality and create a completely 100% good Aboleth. That would, IMO, be worth not just the normal "defeat monster XP", but extra XP for going out of their way to spare an innocent life.
Paxchi With a bonus for creating what amounts to a new demigod of Good. Aboleth are friggin OP, one turned completely good would be awesome.
Nah...no extra XP. Just a new squire.....a super giant squire....that could destroy everyone all at one.....
This sounds like a perfect opportunity for a side quest: I imagine a ritual spell that sends the players into the mind of the aboleth, an Escher meets Giger dungeon of impossible twisting bone and flowing darkness. Just a few rooms, but with enemies that can take advantage of the twisted terrain in a way the PCs can't. Getting KOed wouldn't be fatal, but it would boot the player back to to reality, so if they go down, they're out of the fight for good. They fight the evil personality using the regular Aboleth stats, and if they win they gain a psychic timebomb with the mind of a child as a follower. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?
From what I remember The Bad Guy players are the team Ben normally plays with. The one team with the bird.
This was just the team from Tomb of Annihilation that can't ever get any EXP, but they are still getting thought encounters.
Except this one isn't turned good, it's turned into a not so bright child. Which any decent party will leave behind with nary a thought, sure to never encounter it again.
You know, if you wanted to play the aboleth for it's full 'creepy'/'abomination from the far realm' factor, the personality of 'small curious child' doesnt necessarily have to mean "cute and harmless".
I mean childrens can be selfish capricious little bastards who will indulge their curiosity by tearing out their toys apart to see what's the inside's like, squish ants and pull the legs of insects. ... and compared to an aboleth your everage adventurer is juuust about the right size... You could make childish aboleth way scarrier than murder aboleth.
Yeah, so...while thats true ***SPOILER*** he's really not joking about the book's description. THe aboleth's child personality is described as "Harmless, Gleeful, and Insanely Curious, posing no threat whatsoever to anyone."
But where's the fun with that?
ミ(づ￣ ³￣)づ
For the GM ? In the creeped out faces of your players, of course :p
As soon as I get my hands on that campaign I’m going to wing that part!
Your writing level is that of a child's.
I got cursed with nor being able to die and well the DM gave it to me as a CURSE so I wouldn't abuse it BOI WAS HE WRONG I jumped 100ft off a tall castle and went splat and half way through the battle my body starts snapping back in place and my character comes back and says MY LIFE IS GREAT PAIN
I got the same curse. Then we found the cursed necklace of fireball with 8 charges on it. Now I am a warlock with a suicide vest ready to detonate my way out of any encounter.
How is not dying a curse in DnD?
Well it is a limited use curse (for mine it is the curse of 9 lives so 9 charges) so possibly it can make someone more flippant with their own mortality (such as my warlock is becoming with his S-Vest mentality). Also I suspect there will be negative aspects that play into dying multiple times and being spared by this curse.
Novawolf u r playing Deadpool; you are not allowed to argue
@@a.dennis4835 A little late, but check out this greentext if you want to know how immortality may be a curse in D&D: www.reddit.com/r/DnDGreentext/comments/68napq/of_immolation_immortality/
I want a cute aboleth plush.
Chlorine's gaming repo me too
Has to be one of those plush you can turn inside out so you have evil aboleth and friend aboleth.
Grave Knight that would be awesome
Me too!

How will Puffin screw over his party today?
JK Puffin you're awesome. Keep messing with your party;)
They received no XP. Such a horror story.
Whimsy is the most precious boi.
Honestly the 2nd rule of D&D is - don't get on the boat
1st rule is don't split up the party
hearing this makes me wanna run a game with Demogorgon and have one of the heads just talk like a hyperactive 3 year old with a lisp. Damn you Puffin!!!
Make it still be a little brat though.
And ill still murder it iv had to many bad encounter with them
Which one is the truly evil head though? the one that asks for the throne of writhing flesh, fresh off the bones of a hundred men... or the one who scatters it's legos and doesn't pick them up?
Legos, definitly
You could also do this at lower levels with a chimera. In fact, I think I'm going to have to spring that on the players at my own table now that I think of it!
That was way too funny. Especially when he gave them all his treasure. I wish i could have a semi-evil elder being give my characters all their treasure
Am I the only one who got the Hobbit reference when he said “he’s so precious” in an underground lake.
Not a hobbit reference. "He's so precious" is something you say to a cute animal, pet or child. Any creature that's especially cute or adorable.
I got it immediately. Can't miss something like that. :)
You Should Invite Whimsy To The Party!
Kenan Von Kaiser yea
Never played d&d but I love your stories

Puffin: You find an abolith that had the mind of a 6 yr old
Me: I HUG HIM
"What? A platypus? How did you get in here?"

"waiting for his next victim...

I swear to protect Whimsey at all costs
I think the aboleth may have charmed you...
oh my god we need a Whimsey the aboleth t-shirt O_O
Clearly the whole point of this encounter is for the various players to have the two splits talking to them randomly, the two drastic sides of the same coin, to confuse them and put them on edge. While they may know what they're dealing with, its erratic behavior will make it seem drastically more terrifying.
But the Dice Gods™ can be so hilarious and fickle sometimes.
I love how you said "Murder Aboleth!" funny stuff XD
Splish splish!
Killed me.
“Spwish spwish spwish”
I love how you manage to give us the suspense of the players in a round where you were the DM while still telling it from your, the DM's, perspective but showing clearly when you leave out key details that you were aware of but the players weren't.
This is one of my favourite stories from you. I listen to it a couple times a year since it’s so cute!

Aw~
Our tentacled overlord is a adorable.
This actually reminds me of a creature from one of the campaigns I was on. Someone noticed a cute but hurt kitten in an alleyway. As new person to the party tried to help it, it started running away, which would be more or less expected if it was a feral cat, or a not so friendly domesticated kitten. The more experienced members of the party tried to warn the newbie who wanted to help it, but he remarked "What harm can come from a kitten?". After a few minutes of following this kitten (and far enough away from the party for them to be of much help) the player stop running but found himself surrounded over a dozen creatures that looked like kittens but were obviously more dangerous and sinister than your average house cat/kitten.
What an innocent cinnamon bun
MURDERR
I can’t wait to put my players through this.
“They call me Whimsy. INSIGHT CHECK!!!!” why then.... I love this channel
“Whimsy successfully charmed everyone in the party so I think he should get the experience points of defeating you guys” why does this quote remind me of my group?
Aboleth while doing telepathy: That might be, difficult.
Aboleth in first person: I AM ABSERD
Not only was that hilarious, but it totally sounds like something that would happen to you.
We need fanart of that tentacled beast!
Yeah... My mind went to rather interesting places with that suggestion...
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Ulyanin oww, ay know what ur talkin 'bout:3
its already on rule 34. go check it out !

Why do I feel like keeping the cuteness of the good side
Reverse discussion happens and murder aboleth happens:
Muffled voice:
I WARNED YOUUUUUUU!
Hey, your animation has gotten smoother.
Yay! The players have souls
Jacob Camerupt Most parties I’ve DMed for would have tried to take him with them...and some of them would have been able to erase the evil personality.
Nick V even bigger souls!
I would have let it live, just to make it end up killing more people caus i like playing evil
Nick V a helpful mascot trapped in a cocoon of aboleth mucus. That could be gamebreaking though since the aboleth would always know an ambush was going to happen and alert the pcs.
Players don't care. they'd roll that nat 100 and be on their merry way.
I'll be totally honest. The story would not have been as good if it had happened in the reverse Manor. I absolutely loved it and I hope you'll tell more stories like this. Also your animation quality has gone up a lot. It looks fantastic
Pro power move to befriend and employ an aboleth as a servent. Well done Acererak.
When did Abserd become an aboleth?
He wasn't aboleth all along?
Alexander 1133 No, he multiclassed into one.
I'm guessing the aboleth ate Abserd, which is what gave him a split personality.
no, whimsey is abserd's worlock patron
I just wanted to say thank you, because of you story's I got into D&D
And I have a funny story about my first time playing that include my bad luck, my dragonborn being beaten upon by two undead ogres, a cult, undead armies, undead beholders, a destroyed alchemist shop, and my character being obsessed with brothels but never finding any, also my brother was playing with me and that was when I learned he had a D&D arson problem
So all in all that was my first session/ever game of a fantasy that the DM named (with my help) "The undead March"
No BS this happened and it was fun, we're gonna start the next session next week on Monday
Once again...Thank you for getting me into D&D, and for the great story's you provide

Whimsy is the best monster-friend in D&D history.
The most surprising part of this is that the adventurers didn't derail the adventure to help Whimsy
Those deep blue eyes will just steal your life away
I saw that video thumbnail and was like, "Aboleth! I need to watch this right now!" Keep up the great work on your videos man!
Ghy'Ly'Rul was amazing and I love the multiple personality.
Who knew a lovecraftian horror could be so adorable?
You should make a ongoing series of your animations for D&D, like an actual story plot, some of your other friends as voices perhaps?
As long as you include The one, the only.......
ABSERD!!!
Plot twist: Abserd is the villian
Tam riddle next you’re telling me that whimsy is a king of the whole world

Maybe
Plot: Abserd Stumbles past all obstacles in his way and just happens to become the most powerful being with all skills imaginable, but is to incompetent to use them effectively against his foes.
The adventures of Abserd, Detective Savage Rage and Trixie Starbright, on a quest to find little Wallace.
Now THAT is a twist.
The monster sounds like the kind of person that would walk off a cliff if he dropped his candy.
I've been watching PF videos for quite a while now, but this is the first time I've ever felt the need to comment on a video.
Sessions like this are why I love tabletop games. Thank you sharing the experience.
Reminds me of a hilarious thing that happened in a modified module I ran a few weeks ago. I sorta hyped up these cult amulets that were tied to a demon cult that also had ties to the eldritch horrors, but I did too much of a good job. My players destroyed almost every single one they came across except one, meanwhile I was cringing inside the entire time. When they finally got to the big trap before the first "boss" room, it took them a half hour to determine that not only could they have used the amulets they had been destroying to just walk across with no issue, but to also determine that they could just disarm it easily. Next, for the actual boss fight that was made deadlier because of a wall trap that shot psychic blasts at them, if they had been actually wearing the amulets they wouldn't have even needed to fight the wall trap. Though to be fair, they did have a fairly ingenious solution by "blinding" the wall eye trap (which I allowed because it was partially organic) which caused it to kill one of the tougher enemies in the room and miss all its shots on them.
BEN'S ARM! I HAVE SEEN BEN'S Right ARM! I am happy now.
Just search for "An Abserd Adventure", it's a playlist of the whole session. Ben is the guy sitting to the right of the GM (right from the camera perspective)
Oh my gosh, he's so precious!!!!! Whimsy is sho cyoot!!!!!
You gotta love the timing on some mid-roll ads.
"In his head; he heard a voice say; 'There's more to love with the [Bank name] app.'" XD
You sure you weren't running call of cthulu?
Bronze why do i keep seeing you everywhere
because he's bronze
D&D has Lovecraft inspirations tucked away in many of its darker corners
Aboleth, so..
hard to tell
are... are you me? but I'm me.
I'm pretty sure that was just cthulu dude
No it was an epic gamer
Wow. You are genuinely a ninja at commenting on videos. I never cease to be impressed with your skills.
Justin Y. Year your definitely not doing this by yourself
No Cthulu is actually a separate entity that can easily beat gods.
Has there ever been a comment that has gotten lost of Justin Y.’s
I normally hate ads, but this time it was hilarious.
“ I had him roll a die, and in his head he heard “earn 3% cashback on streaming services with the Chase Sapphire card”. 😂
This by far is my favorite video you have made. I am sharing it with everyone I know. Thank you
What a horrifying story
B T indeed.
gamers in a container IKR. Not in the right mind to rule people.
Fire Power701 he should be impeached
Is impeachment a thing in the DND world?
gamers in a container A Marxist uprise is possible?
Fire Power701 let’s hope for this.
I saw the title and the thumbnail, and immediately whispered to myself..."aboleth"
Edit: Well, just saw the video, and (spoilers, look out) it looks like I very much overestimated the aboleth's fear factor in the end.
Whimsy is my favorite character they’re so happy and funny and I like your voice thank you for making them this way
I just have to say...I love your videos. This one I watched quite a few times. Cracked me up.
