When The Puzzle Has A Timer | DnD Short

I need to find a way to use the phrase “can’t bribe a well fed man with crumbs” in conversation.

[Dergownik]

7 session later a slightly charred Vecna pops into existence behind them screaming

[CielArtem]

I tought the joke was going to be "they tried to persuade us with riches beyond our recognition... we didn't recognize it"

[Degrizai]

But these two geniuses didn't just wait until the very last second - they did it so that the recipient wouldn't even have a chance to understand what was sent to him in the chest.
Pure calculation.

[agenti]

So anyone who is confused because you are new to dnd (I'm new so i looked it up):
Galder's Speedy Courier
Summon a small air elemental with an empty chest. Place an item in the chest and pick a designated person whom you have seen before or have at least a small part of them on your person (hair, nails, finger...etc, ). Then the air elemental will teleport right beside the person as long as they are in the same plane and not protected against magic detection and the like.

So they basically sent an express delivery bomb to Vecna's face

"Can't bribe a well fed man with crumbs" I tried looking up that phrase, because I wondered where the phrase originated from, and this video was the first result. Wow, that's quite a good quote to just make up.

[terence]

DM: why do you even have that spell?
Billy: its how I ship my moonshine. It's also the perfect size f'r a pony keg. **takes a large pull of beer**

[grantpflum]

You REALLY need a whole series with these dudes.

[Cyclonejack]

The dice roll by dropping the dice from a used Eggroll wrapper is fucking comedy gold. And you're ability to not break character was awesome. I wish I could like this multiple times.

[raskal]

That pronunciation on lich and "Vechner" is perfect, I could totally see some of my family from South Carolina saying it that way

[theobarrett-johnson]

I love the Warhammer reference in the middle of the skit, just so casually dropped

[irregularassassin]

Back in 3.5e I played a pair of genre-savvy former archmages (and magic shop _franchise_ founders) who acted exactly like this. They did not want to be adventurers, and were only with the party by circumstance.

I'm grateful to whichever Greek Muse drip-fed banter like this into my head, because I frequently had the entire table rolling in uncontrollable fits of laughter. They were one of my favourite character concepts to play, and I desperately want to bring them back somehow.

As a tidbit of their antics, Zeke once rolled luckily when saving against "Orcus' Grasp, " a spell which gives you s heart attack, despite his negative Con mod. His response, while mid cardiac-arrest? "Nope, nope! Ah've survived three o' these before, y'ain't gettin' me with this one!"

[Madison]

Cackling. The way they waited till the last minute to enact their solution 😭😭😭

[bogustoastnone]

We gonna talk about those two fighting 7.8billion mimics inside a silo?

[elishabenton]

I like these dudes videos before they start lol. They're so good.

[Tis-I-Link]

The 711 taquito dice bag is my favorite thing ever, and god do I love these characters, smart wordly southerners that "ain't from 'round here but still know a thing or two" are simply my favorite to throw in a dnd setting

[frostfro]

They are feared, but damn are they efficient

[Griffingterra]

"To thar Vechner Feller, So as I was Sayin we had them wompdingers right tail tailed to the back of~"

[Draciosama]

DAWG THAT SAYING IS KILLER IM STEALING THAT! "Can't bribe a well fed man with crumbs" FUCKING BRILLIANT!

[cybernomad]

I can imagine the bbeg getting so mad by the constant interruptions of exploding pendants, random wild beasts that the party can't handle, or just a pebble cause someone in the party thought it was pretty.
