The way Brennan speaks, especially the way he curses, is so deliberate. H really thinks about what he's saying and what it means to him. I don't even play D&D, but I love Brennan.
Going along with the high stat role play question it reminds me of Liam O'Brian with his character Caleb having the photographic memory feat and leans into the whole I Liam have know idea about this but Caleb would know so tell me what Caleb knows Mr. DM.
Two other ways to roleplay a high intelligence character: 1. Take detailed notes. You might need some pieces of information later 2. Make up jargon/lingo. I have a chart of scientific/mystical terms full of things like "Azabad's postulate of non-linear evocation". It's useful to make a character appear learned, since they know so many technical terms
In regard to playing high stats that don't match your irl abilities, I struggle with that in my 20 CHA warlock. I spent quite a lot of time figuring out how I would play her in away that was natural to me. Finally decided she would control how people thought about her by controlling how they felt about themselves. She would just try to make everyone around her feel good about themselves (whether she actually liked them or not) since you're likely to look favorably on someone who makes you feel good. But if she wanted to really crush or intimidate someone, she would do the opposite and make them feel like trash. She goes around acting like the common peoples' best friend and making lords and royalty think she respects them
Brennan talking about the 17th Level Characters, Superman and what type of stories you can still tell with someone to powerful is a good insight into the Webcomic he made with Molly Ostertag ("Strong Female Protagonist")
Charcter idea: Legend and adventure story fan who gets to experience all of the tropes they have read about while out on their own adventure. "Oh my gods! I get to hear a real villain monologue! This is so amazing!"
As a DM, to help with the intelligence 20 thing (when a player is not as "smart" as their character), I often will have the player roll an intelligence check to give them a clue/idea that I just thought of. If the party is stuck at a riddle, i might give a nudge to the intellectual of the group to instigate that player having the answer. I also typically allow other players to input ideas to the intellectual even when they're separated from the party (or more precisely, I simply dont discourage it, rather than declaring it okay and encouraging it). I think the DM has to help stress the character's stats to some degree. The responsibility is primarily on the player, but as a DM, you can give the players a little help stressing what stat they're good at. The same is true for any stat really (especially the bottom stats: Int, Wis, Cha)
Unfortunately I don't have Twitter so I can't ask that way... I can't seem to find it on TH-cam so can anyone tell me where it is? Twitch maybe? I would love to watch Theogony of Kairos
I always thought B. Dave was an actor because he was so good at it on LABN, but looking back all of his really great strategic and creative thinking was a big giveaway that he's a writer by trade! Love this idea of Theogony a lot, great analysis of Superman as well.
So I would love to take a class on morality, but i don't agree that good=selfless bad=selfish, if thats the case thanos is a good guy and any mercenary that works for him is inherently worse
That feels like more of a question of where someone's personal morality stands. Thanos meant well, but his methods were morally ambiguous and not everyone would agree that his methods were really selfless. In that same sense you couldn't call him either good or evil.
@@ABD-42 how could you argue that he wasn't acting selflessly by creating what he beleives is a perfect universe, for others to live in, and not himself, thats fairly pure selflessness
I would argue that morality isn't just the one dimension of selfish-to-selfless, but also a second dimension of protection-to-destruction. So on one extreme, you have those prone to selfish destruction, which we'd call evil, and the other extreme is those prone to selfless protection, which we'd call good. Thanos would be in a third corner, one of selfless destruction, which I don't think I would call evil, just dangerous. A sort of "the road to hell is paved with good intentions" situation. (Can we call it "hell-paved", just because that sounds cool? Thanks.) The fourth and final corner of this 2D plane would be selfish protection, which would be basically not hurting anyone unnecessarily, but only protecting yourself and letting other people get hurt by others. So kind of a "complacent inaction" situation. Again, not really evil, but not great, either. So I guess I'd say the four extremes of this 2D morality grid are Good (selfless protection), Evil (selfish destruction), Hell-Paved (selfless destruction), and Complacent (selfish protection). Thanos is just hell-paved. To give some real-world examples: Hitler was evil, Ghandi was good, many militias and their members are hell-paved, and a very large number of people are complacent.
I would argue that Thanos' motives weren't actually selfless. The way that he refuses to engage with any of the obvious logical shortcomings of his plan suggests that there are some ulterior motives going on. Someone who was honestly and fully motivated by a desire to prevent catastrophe and save the universe would be willing to listen to reason. This becomes more obvious with Endgame Thanos, who just straight up decides to wipe everyone out and remake the universe in his image. It was always about him to begin with, on some level.
5:00 while I agree video games won’t “completely” replace tabletop, you have to admit there are many games that give a player agency in their world. Not many nearly approach the potential complexity of tabletop, but some “world simulators” like Dwarf Fortress get close.
To speak on the whole tropes thing and when and when not to subvert them; I'm a forever DM who rarely gets to play as well and in a recent mini campaign, I decided on playing a Half Orc Barbarian. My friend who was also playing, who I've DMed for a bunch of times, looked at me and asked why I'd play something that basic. Fair question, most of my NPCs are wierd and have strange multiclasses and race mixes and stuff like that. I just kinda had to look and him and say "I haven't played one yet, though". Wasn't a huge worldbreaking moment for him but I could see that it dawned on him that I just straight up haven't been playing the same game he was. I haven't gotten the fun moments of banter and RP that he had. I have to bounce around to everything and make stuff up and can't overshadow the PCs with anyone because that'd be a jerk move. When I get to actually play, it's literally a whole new world. Every trope is fun, every conversation means something, every mat 20 matters to me and I get to experience a story from a truly different perspective. I love Grack and I enjoyed playin him. To sum it up, give me a story, and I'll give you a character, no matter if I can see the twist.
B. Dave Walters said the Theogony of Kairos episodes are on TH-cam, but I'm having trouble finding them, could someone help or link them? Is it just the one GenCon episode? That doesn't seem right... Maybe they were taken down? Are they somewhere else available free?
In regards to the first audience question, it's not about where you're going it's how you get there. Even if your players guess the "twist" and where the story is going, doesn't mean that they will know every single step along the way and it's those steps along the way that can change how your players view the story
Dave's insight on 'torture porn' in games (though I might ultimately use more nuanced terminology to describe the subject) is right on the money and precisely what I come to these videos for.
An interesting thing on the charisma commentary. My satyr bard has high charisma (playing right into stereotypes, I know) but he is NOT charming, whatsoever. He’s actually kind of a total sleazeball. So where does that charisma come in? He’s got a plus 7 in intimidation but also, for other charisma, he’s got this gorgeous drag persona that is actually a LOT more likable than his regular self! He doesn’t see it that way, he thinks he’s hot shit just the way he is, but he’s crafted that persona so carefully as a way to help him get out of scrapes that she intentionally acts in a way he knows people will react favorably to. It’s actually a very fun switch to make, trying to figure out this sleazeball’s idea of a charming person that actually somehow works.
In terms of handing out information on a nat 20, one GM hack that I love is to use that opportunity to create a *new* threat that you didn't even have planned and then tell the players about it. Because As far as the players know you had that threat planned all along, and from their perspective they just got foreknowledge of something that could have totally blindsided them and really messed up their plans.
I've got Discord, and still didn't watch this til after seeing Escape from Blood Keep- and glad that was the case. Brennan, Blood Keep beats tropes over the head with the bloody severed limbs of a whole lot of tropes, in a way that's absolutely delicious.
What I do with multiclassing is that I make my own XP requirements and Proficiency bonuses up to 40th level, so you can multiclass 2 classes up to lvl 20. or 4 to 10th.
Little late with this, 5 years late, but does Dave speak German? The "city of Erlebnis" - Erlebnis means Experience in German, as in, "this is an experience".
Bucking off Brennan's comment a little bit. Divinity as morality is Christian. Pre-Christian pantheons in Europe dealt with divinity as superhuman/supernatural. Ethics is still new, though.
with them talking about superman not liking to be superman and people not wanting to see it, i think they need to go watch the guardians of justice will save you. where superman not only hates being superman, but hates the people he's protecting as superman, to the point where he kills himself on live tv. and the bulk of the show is the rest of the heroes and the world coping in the aftermath.
This will be semi unpopular, I DM for my kiddos. We had a previous group. If the kids are playing characters of age 18 or older, and they generally play that character to what they created, i give them pretty much free reign with their actions with the exceptions of erotic situations. What i didn't expect, is that one of them would remember a description i told them in game zero of a witch that was presented in a dark scenario. Brutally defeating the prodigy that was the player character. They come upon this figure fighting another witch in the woods. That resembles a target they were sent to hunt down. They suspect this witch is a bad guy that eradicated a town. So remembering this, i hear him whisper in mostly character. "What the actual F..k is going on here. This person is a monster. so who is the real monster here." The witch in question dodges an attack and gets the group into her blindsight of 30 feet. Notices the group and casually asks the group why they are here. The kiddo pounces in an attack and winds up unconscious with the rest of the group unsure of what to do. As they thought they had it figured out until this scenario. Revealing the truth about the situation with the truth of what happened that day his eyes are just bulged and wide. To this day it was one of the most predicted yet not predictable situations we have had. As the witch wasn't the bad guy. The situation just wasn't known completely due to the way the players character was written with their backstory. They didn't roll well enough to remember everything so the little details left a surprise that they thought they figured out yet still managed to get a lot of enjoyment from.
A "nat 20" and a "nat 1" both have the same 5% chance of occurring. In real life, if this this were how skills worked, I'm sorry to say my "nat 20" chances are probably closer to a -5% and the "nat 1" is closer to 50%. What die would make that possible?
You know, I don't mind Nat 20 being crits in a fight, but it's not as improbable as most gamers seem to make it out to be. Like, there's a 5% chance of a 20 showing up.
I really REALLY dislike dnd cosmology and in general fantasy worlds thst do ",no good and evil literally exist thus ALL interesting and complex moralny Grey characters are literally out the w8ndow as potentially savable, nope ur bad. Like, no, pls let me say that maybe from my perspektywę the jedi sre evil without someone being like "no actually i can cast detektyw evil on him" thats childish and also i dont think thats fun xd. But hey.
While i love brennan unconditionally (whwnever he does not spew leftist agenda but even when he does i forgive him cause he is so great ♡) but im totally not with his with the whole Superman thing. Superman is a shitty protagonist on so many levels (as an idea, i dont care about actual Superman) and yeah. No.

Oh now I absolutely need to see B. Dave Walters run a VTM game for the D20 crew with Brennan as a player.

This podcast has been so phenomenal, thank you!!!
B. Dave Walters strikes me as sharp as hell.
Them talking about Superman at the beginning kept reminding me of how great One Punch Man is
Actually a great example of what they're talking about. All the tension in that show is derived from human relations, not physical power struggles
Or fucking Superman
I love applying so many of the things I learn from you guys to the game I'm running for my son .
Hey thanks for putting captions on this video
A good closed captioning is really helping out here.
It sure is pulling its weight ahaha.
Does anyone know where/how one could watch the Theogony of Kairos now ?
I just had the same question...5 years later.

What happened to Theogony of Kairos? These 2 really sold me on it, but I can't find any episodes anywhere except a live show at gencon.
So it seems like the series was privated except for that gencon episode. Haven’t found a reason why yet
Such a fascinating discussion of morality in narrative
