Anyone else notice that as soon as he dropped the name “Wolfsbane”, they got their butts kicked by wolves?
Absolutely loving Kelly's moment of realisation about Charlie in Drakkenheim 😂😂👌
Now I want to DM a campaign set in the same setting and time but different place to set such thing onto players xD To put problems made by a group in one campaign into another it's such an amazing idea Monty!
"I've literally never seen a butterfly with an eye patch." XD
I have seen one with sunglasses and an ascot, though.
Joe's deadpan humor is some of the funniest I've seen. Man has a gift.
Kelly grew a beard. Then Joe grew a beard. I'm worried about the future. Don't do it, Jill. XD
I love how well the players move well with with bad rolls. They incorporate it in the narrative and move on. It makes for a grand tale!
When I realized, Charlie's disappearance is directly linked to the shenanigans pulled by our heroes in season 1, I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
That right there is internal-fucking -coherence, ladies and gents.
Thats the best
49:30 "So... choke... it worked perfectly..." Joe's take on Wrath is so much fun; his complete inability to admit to any weakness is a great flaw. "Don't look! That's my esophagus!" 😂🤢
1:01:22 I image that Wrath's Book of Shadows is filled with inky cat paw-prints and scratch marks.
1:09:19 "I'm a visual learner!" 😂😂😂
1:20:00 That was a crowded encounter; there really wasn't mushroom to manoeuvrer.
I think Monty is happiest having just thrashed his friends 😂
Wrath repeatedly getting wrapped up in the roots just made my day! It's like a running gag throughout the episode, but it was just the result of his dice rolls 🤣
Oh my... The unicorn plot twist 😂🦄. Also having just watched Dune..... THE SLEEPER MUST AWAKEN!
As a DM myself, i am learning so much from this. Absolutely wonderful story, and role play... well done guys
I loved the poisoned swashbuckler coddling a petrified fungus statue of the warlock while he was poisoned.
Jill looking at Wilhelm's character sheet on Kelly's tablet 1:43:53 is priceless.
Wait!
Is Charlie the Unicorn the same unicorn Sebastian summoned while fighting the beholder?!
Yes he is !! 😂😂 This is a brilliant plot point !!
What happend to that Unicorn after the fight? Anyone remember which episode that was?
Yes. Episode 50: The Hard Choice

After the combat: th-cam.com/video/qZZYyqFI768/w-d-xo.html
Exactly what I was thinking! What an awesome call back!
That’s the same thing that clicked in my head!
In Westemar, trees hug you!
This episode would've been the most appropriate time to wear your "Roots" T-shirts for.
For me the concept of a Great Old Cat, lord of the dreamworld, just makes me think of that one time in Sandman where the story is told for the perspective of cats.
Dream of a thousand cats, nice one.
Here I am fully caught up, I've actually been watching Dungeons of Drakkenheim now but time to get back to the shadows.
That poor unicorn. He was such a good guy too lol
Definitely one of the more fun episodes in a while haha. I think most of it is that you guys are back together now and I love love love your guys’ dynamic together! It’s what drew me in to dungeons of drakkenheim a year and a half ago!
Fabulous episode, once again! The bit about the Unicorn was awesome on so many levels . . .
10:00 is literally the social anxiety meme of popping into the party, seeing people, and being like, “aight ima head out now.”
This Friday just got better
Wrath and his Suggestions! He may become the next Obi-Wan Kenobi!
Monty's sass is on point in this session with the fungi. Absolutely love it.
Amendment: His sass is just on point with every encounter.
Wrath has some Big Druid Energy
Don't forget "counterspell shield" that's allways a lot of fun!
The flocking club this magical club has a 1D4 (1D6 makes it common I think) chance of summoning a goat to help you in battle. Goats last for one minute and continue to attack until dismissed,dispelled,slain or hostilities cease. The attuned does not have to be awake or even alive but if you retreat they can use their reaction to absorb projectiles with an opposed attack roll.
I love to see y’all in an actual dungeon and crawling through it. Exploring, fighting, etc. I love it. The last few episodes has been pretty much social encounters and lots of talking lol. I hope Wrath gets his curse lifted! Good luck finding those ingredients. 😂
Monty, I am using this arc as inspiration for my own Curse of Strahd game where. PlYer was just infected with lycanthropy. Keep up the great work!
Fridays are the fun days! Also, does anyone else imagine pride rock in montys description of the area around the entrance?
A butterfly with an eye patch would match a goth moth cleric.
Wilhelm was clutch on that last fight aye
I know this is only indirectly related to this video, and might be slightly spoilery, but I just want to say I cannot tell you how much I screamed in excitement when I read the worlds "will of the haze" and "delirium heart" in the playtest material.
Another 10hours drive trip listening to you guys. Thanks again
17:45 Monty no!! Stop it now 😂😂😂
I like the source of malice, who acts as the villain, and this was yet another good episode :D
2:23:15 Ah yes, the classic acrobatics vs athletics debate: timeless.
Doom shroom should have had solar beam as an attack lol 😆
The episode should have been called "Duskwardens in Bondage"
I love the occasional Discworld references in Drakkenheim
So does this mean that the party encountered the Sebastian Crpwe's unicorn, does this mean that Sebastian has an eye to watch the party?
Monty has now created the genre of DM Death Rap.
Watched lore bard guide all day on repeat until this video came up.
I imagine someday we will get a behind the scenes look at the set, and Kyle will just be a giant hand in the thumbs up position, with a single arm that has a normal sized hand that's perpetually in the thumbs up position.
Can we all just admire wrath’s Mohawk.. 😜
heey Charlie we found a map Charlie, to candy mountain Charlies, candy mountain.
Great episode as always guys, well played!
OMG. Joes beard is so glorious
So glad to see this here. Need to relax so much.
I believe the myconid fit the theme of the campaign as the Mi-Go, the Fungi from Yuggoth.
I also like the challenges that gone more difficult after the revelation of who Wilhelm is.
Great job not allowing acrobatics to be used in place of athletics for those checks Monty. Dex gets too much love as is.
Dammit, get this man some berry pie!!!
Long live Charlie the Unicorn. Currently 13 years old with 37m views.
Animate objects on pet food I would.
Everyone deserves a hype man like Joe!
Monocle of Night
Is Sebastian Crowe the dark force of magic that the guardian unicorn of this forest it weren't there?
extreme gardening, n0ice
Candy Mountain Charlie!!!!
1:12:38 "Please do not pull this lever again" 🙃🤣
Nice! Been waiting for this the whole week
I think about this all the time. There is no true dexterity without strength, so you just shouldn't have to dump one and pump the other
Oooo. 29:50 Solid Neil Gaiman reference.
The unicorn!! Everythings connected!!!!
Plant bloodied... Marinara'd, or Ragu'd!
The charlie the unicorn...reminds me of when in the main game I am in my hubby got a warhorse with armor and it had a long spike on the forehead plate and told hime to name him charlie...my character had to ride a pony, being a short tabaxi (5 ft 1 inch tall) and named my pony Bill...iykyk
Rudi: "Are we gonna have to fight a door?"
In my head: "Is Rudi Whitaker gonna have to smack a door?"
Monty couldn’t have told Kelly about the ointment sooner..? 😜
I have to say, monty lets wilhelm use acroabatics way more than he should, but i do appreciate kelly just asking for it straight up 😅
Turns out the chain Wilhelm pulled was a shortcut. A shortcut to what?
MUSHROOMS!
(That was a Lord of the Rings reference to those that didn't get it)
GET OFF THE ROAD
I think this is a reflavor of a zombie beholder very nice my Druid ended up killed by this creature almost killing it
12:18:54 the map kinda looks like a frog.
He is at candy mountain!
Someone needs to muzzle that 'wolfsbane'
Well done friends! Excellent
Yup Yup. Bring on the Shadows
RUDI!!! You have better manners than to destroy somebody's ancient book!
I miss Amanuenesis spell from 3.5
Let's you copy non magical txt to another sheet and make it identical to the original. Minus art and magic writing.
A few minutes in I think the volumes need some balancing. Monty is very quiet, especially in comparison to Joe and Kelly. The theme music was also LOUD.
It scared the crap out of me
Charlie the unicorn!!! hahahahaha
Anyone else finding Monty far too quiet? New mics need a little bit of balancing.
Other than that love the work as always!
Loup-garou, Werewolf, something different languages. Lycanthropes
Curious as to why Wrath didn’t just drop “Hunger of Bruce” in the room and just wait as they stumbled out and into Rudi’s waiting axes and Wilhelm’s crossbow bolts.
I think he was out of spellslots. They hadn’t had a short rest after the fight with the Owlbears.
Monty, I need that mug in my life. Where did you get that sir?
Maeliki has been mentioned. HowWOO and kaKRAW to Walnut Dankgrass fans.
1:19:00 "fungi ....fungi .... " do you mean "fun guy" ? it's all good , isn't it ?
I like these guys. They have a lot of DM knowledge, but I can't get into these recorded games like this. I made it through most of one episode while I was driving a couple of weeks ago. That was a milestone for me... Keep doing what you are doing guys.
37:00 "Definitely something happening unnatural. Or maybe two natural, I don't know." That's what I heard at first, and was sad that nobody reacted to the pun. Until I realized that Rudy said "too natural", which makes much more sense... :D
I'm early in the episode still , but I kinda want wrath to turn into the wolf hahahaha, I hope Bruce can forgive him 🥺
I see John Carpenter's Tee Shirt. I hear The Thing's song...
Yes I am way behind.. You guys are old souls.
The intro vid needs a bit of audio balancing - awesome episode as always
47:32
Are the dreamers inspired from hollow knight?
I know I will probably not get an answer, but it's worth trying
Can someone explain to me why Wrath was able to move between his Eldritch Blast shots? Isn't Eldritch Blast one single spell attack with several beams? So he shoud actually not be able to move between them.
Or did I miss something that would allow that?
I think because you're making several attack rolls Monty is effectively treating the individual beams as if they were a martial character's extra attack(s) and allowing Joe to move and shoot. Chalk it up to DM's interpretation because there's nothing the spell description that says the beams HAVE to be simultaneous.
@@lsamaknight Ah OK so I was correct that it should actually not be possible. So you can say it's one of their houserules.
@@mkay6915 Again, I would say less a house rule and more of a case of DM interpretation. I pretty sure Eldritch Blast is the only spell where the caster makes multiple attack rolls (as opposed to AOE attacks forcing various saving throws) and whether they all happen at once or sequentially like a martial character's multi-attack isn't explicitly spelled out. If it plays out differently at your table... well as I said, interpretation. There's no one right answer.
@@lsamaknight Sry but I have to disagree here
1. Their are other spells like Eldritch Blast. Scorching Ray or Magic Missile for example.
2. The description of Eldritch Blast says "The spell creates more than one beam when you reach higher levels"
It says "the Spell" and not "The Spells" and Eldritch Blast is one spell attack and has a casting time of one action, so they happen at the same time
The reason why it works with multiattack is because their are several attacks but Eldritch Blast is just one spell attack so the rules make it actually clear
But like you said every table can play like they want and they houseruled the crossbow expert feat a little bit as well. The reason for my original comment was that I just thought I overlooked something in the rules and was confused and not because I wanted to complain about the fact that they don't follow the rules 100%
@@mkay6915 multi attack is multiple attacks, but still one action. If EB having a casting time if 1 action disqualifies movement from being used in between, then the same is true of multiattack.

As a German, I have to say that names like Wilhelm von Kessel sound like the donkey from the neighboring village to me. but actually I should and may not say anything. because I use the Google Translator and Albanian / Basque to name my elven NPCs
An Albanian elf? Let me guess, they have feuds with Serbian orcs :D
@@thatindiandude4602 This special elf has a feud with the whole world. But apart from that, Albanian sounded just right for a wood elf swordmaster from Eberron. (Vallëzim shpate)
You can have a sleeper without a dreamer... but you cant have a dreamer without a sleeper
Jill, Joe, Kelly and Monty enters a bar and gets into a fight. They break out the d20 dice......
