Middle aged mundane monk tortle!
Middle aged mundane monk tortle!
Middle aged mundane monk tortle!
17 Nat AC!
Tortle power!
That song is going to be stuck in my head all day now....
Your welcome 😁
Mizerable Git yeah baby
"Math is fine."
Rookzer0 lied as naturally as he breathed.
Math is life!
@@Rookzer0 You think I enjoy life?
"Long lived" - Tortles live for 50 years, even humans live longer
If they are anything like tortoises the average lifespan is much shorter than their their max age. I think 50 doesn't make sense for people or turtles I always assumed a typo of 500 years.
Oh wow, that Tortle looks rad! I can't wait to see what totally tubular topics you've got coming up!
:) Thank you!
@@Rookzer0 Also, I forgot to mention. I agree with what you said about the Tortle's speed and other characteristics. I've actually taken to changing them in my own games.
Q: Why should you play a Tortle in 5e?
A: Because your DM is an idiot and said "Yes" to the idea.
I like the posibilty of shinanagind that can come from it. Then again I've let one of my players be a horse before do I might not be a normal dm
Dude, nothing beats the day my GM allowed me to play as an Eldritch Horror from another dimension. I convinced him that I lost all my Old One powers and would only get them back if I became a "true hero". Took the idea from the game "Cthulhu Saves the World", which is a really fun and enjoyable RPG.
By the way, the rest of the party was just as crazy: A former slave monkey man (think Wukong from League of Legends) who had his mouth sewed for unknown reasons and couldn't speak, a centaur druid who could only transform the human side as he wasn't a true centaur and a devil who had to sacrifice his horse at the beginning, only to have it turned into the centaur controlled by the other player.
Boy, it was one hell of a game.
I've been looking at Tasha's Cauldron and I think the idea of a Swarmkeeper Tortle ranger would be cool where your swarm would live in or on your shell and you kind of become like a mobile hive for them
Swarm of crabs would be terrifying with that
I DM'd a campaign where one of my players was a Tortle Warlock who, during one session, scored some Boots of Speed on a random loot roll.
It was as hilarious as it sounds. Gotta go fast.
I'm just thinking of the Koopas with wings. ROCKET TURTLE
That artwork is so good I love it! I love tortles, they're my favorite race to roleplay. They're just sweet nice lil turtle people and they honestly need more attention in d&d
Thank you! I've been itching to play one, I've got some things waiting in the wings for the next part of my campaigns.
I made a tortle, that's part Shadow Monk, part Draconic Bloodline Scorcerer so he grows giant, turns invisible, and breaths lightning while basically blocking the door making people think the bard who is besties with this turtle who can grow into an invisible ancient dragon sized monster is a lv 30 wizard through various illusions and bluffs. High level campaigns are the best for character building.
That seems like the proper use of a large tortle! Definitely need to get a good Kaiju battle in there somewhere.
@@Rookzer0 we will get one at the end, the bbeg is an ancient red dragon. Which I plan on suplexing in my enlarged state because he's a weapon less fighter with spells that I reflavor to be more breath attacks [namely lightning bolt], and in his normal state it normal breaths normal lightning breath attacks with stupid high AC from Monk, Sorcerer AND race features.
@@samanbouniady nice, let me know how it goes!
@@Rookzer0 The dragon was shocked, suplexed, flanked, and robbed of his dignity. My tortle was a one man army against it because everyone used their spells to make me massive and let me use my now ginormous lightning breath whole I suplexed it.
Edit: That session was today for DM and party meeting reasons.
We have a Tortilla Bard/Fighter that tells jokes and uses bucklers for extra armor and brass knuckles. We are level 3 and he's virtually untouchable. His name is Jeff.
That sounds pretty awesome, what kind of instrument does he play?
@@Rookzer0 He doesn't, he literally only tells jokes.
I’m pretty new to D&D, and I’ve been making an informal list of races and classes I most want to play. I’m not sure I’d want to play a tortle in a full campaign, but the more I see of them the more I think I want to try one out in a one-shot. I much prefer magic casters like bards, sorcerers and wizards but I think a tortle would be great to test something like a fighter, druid, or cleric-classes I’m interested in but not as much as the other aforementioned ones. I particularly think a tortle druid or tortle cleric could be something interesting to play in a one-shot.
Yeah I Think they definitly have something special to bring to the table. Get out there and try something. I could see a Plant druid Tortle that Grows things on his back being really fun. A small Island turtle.... Oh the possibilities!
Let me know if you ever build one out and get to play 'em.
Paying a Tortle Wizard or Sorcerer definitely makes your magic user more survivable. How many wizards have 17 AC at level 1? Think about it, you can actually survive linger as a wizard.
imagine a DnD campaign with a party of 4 Turtle Race and 1 Rat and the BBEG is an Artificer who took the armorer skill
The thing that baffles me is that they have such a short lifespan. Real life tortoises are some of the longest lived vertebrates on Earth.
Yeah I found that odd too..
Personally, I don't see tortles as being large. Large means you're 10+ feet to your longest dimension. While a 10-ft tall Tortle does sound cool, it definitely doesn't feel like it should be default. They feel like medium sized creatures to me.
That's a fair way to look at it. I've always looked at is as if your width is wider than 5ft you should take up more than one square. Like with a heavy horse or so forth. As is dnd, you're game your rules and as long as its fun. :)
@@Rookzer0 that is also a fair way to look at it. However, 5 ft wide is quite big. mawr just have different mental images of what a tortle should be. Though you did mention TMNT, and they definitely seemed like medium-sized to me!
Tortles make the best druids and barbarians. Both those classes can't wear heavy metal armor and tend to have low AC. As a tortle, that class weakness is overcome by the race.
agreed. I see a lot of Tortle monks but it just feels excessive at that point
"There are no accidents." -Master Oogway.
Fair
Im making a tortle paladin oath of the deep
D&d wiki
I’m starting a campaign as a tortle paladin too!
That one dislike is Shredder.
I kind of assumed that as well.
Tortle, a haflings best friend!
That art was super nice, but it looked like his left leg (the one we see on the right) was kind of misplaced. Like it was starting from the back of its shell or something. Still it looked really badass
this race but a artificer armor class
Tortle + moon druid/rune knight = Gamera
Nice
Nice!
the intro alone made me wanna play
Great to hear ! Let me know if you make one!
If you're really into ninja stuff, the arcane trickster rogue is probably the closest to being a shinobi, a true ninja (but you gotta do some research and think it quite well)
Most turtles are actually pretty quick on land. It’s the tortoises and box turtles that are generally slow.
Good info
Rookzer0 Good video. I guess I should also mention non-basking water turtles like sea turtles, snapping turtles and matamatas are pretty slow as well. But the baskers like sliders, cooters and softshells can run pretty fast.
I studied herpetology under a tortoise expert and I’ve seen a masters thesis presentation on ornate box turtles. This knowledge, and the knowledge from your video, will prove handy when I make Franklin Ornata, the old forgetful tortle wild magic sorceror with an affinity for butterscotch candy. 😁😁😁🐢🐢🐢
I like your over the hedge reference.
"Reeeeptilll" Love that movie.
Tortle Monk= Oogway...and I love it..😎
At nearly six foot eight I had to get a custom board to skate as a teen
Did you ride the 8.5 or was that still to small? My friend was 6ft 7 and still complained about it.
Wish could do a tortle drawing (he has no name)
Great sketch man!
Thank you good sir! Got any cool videos in the works?
@@Rookzer0 hey man! Yeah I've got one about 90% done but I've been swamped lately
I just got to start my first campaign of dnd and I've chosen an Envoy Warforged who's a druid5/fighter2. I convinced my DM to allow me to have a second set of arms like a Thri-kreen so long as i follow the same limitations. I'm terrible at drawing so my character art looks like a child has drawn them, I'm 34. Lol
I don't find pencil sketches for character art for my own characters. If you'd like to use any the artwork from the videos you can get them from the discord or the patreon site and feel free to use them in home games. I also wouldn't mind seeing what you've done yourself!
How about a video on grimlocks? I played a grimlock wizard a while back, one of the best characters I ever played.
OOhhh Interesting Idea,. I will definitely put that on my list!
I try to do an evil campagin. You play with monsters. And the finish when u have the world xD
Im currently running something like this with and undead and a drow antipaladin, they are basically fighting a church that hates necromancers. And another evil lich that allready controlls a large chunk of the world as a shadow government.
skateboarding in D&D is easy, it's just land vehicle proficiency.
Lol when you say it like that i dont see why you coudnt just have your players roll a ride check.
" i want to pull a 360 shoveit over the gaurds"
"With your horse???"
Rook you’re the shit bro
Thank you!
The channel is growing so fast! Keep the awesome content up. Also, do you do commissions?
Thank you, I will do my best. I do commissions when I have the time. Lets chat about it some time.
Hm... can i play with a golem? Or a puppet? (I can watch the internet but i wait your answer)
Yeah absolutly. The warforeged are pretty close and a great place to start. If you want to use the stat block from one of the monsters just take their hd as your starting level and then start taking class levels after that.
Question: do tortle’s have any natural enemy’s
Wearsharks
Ninjas that have a thing for spikey plate mail :^]
Italian Plumbers.
Shredder
You're very entertaining and your art is AMAZING! What's your setup? Graphics tablet? Monitor? Drawing program?
I have a Cintique companion (first gen) That I've had for a long while now, and I use:
Photoshop for art
OBS for capture
And Premiere for editing
I really loved my cintique when I was in college and running around all the time but now that I've got a small office space set up I really wish I had one of the Big Cintiques for my Desktop. I had a small desktop tablet for years and years before I got my cintique.
@@Rookzer0 Color me jealous! Those bigger Cintiqs *do* look lovely and I could see how that would be useful!
The Tortle race goes back to AD&D 2'nd edition at least. A part of Mystara's subsetting Red Steel If I remember correctly.
Did BECMI have Tortles?
2nd Edition did have tortles in the Mystara Monstrous Compendium Appendix, Great Memory!
I'm not certain about the BECMI. If someone has more info I'd love to see it!
@@Rookzer0 Yes BECMI had Tortles as 'monsters' at least. They appeared in the Savage Coast(X9)
@@peadarruane6582 awesome good to know!
@@Rookzer0 There are also a race called Snappers, that are similar, but mean spirited nasty turtle folk with slightly different stats in terms of size, attacks, and things like their eggs are useless in making armour, whereas Tortle eggs seemingly can be crafted into lightweght plate mail.
arite
yeah
howdy!
Well hello there!
shit i really wanna likethis but don't want to break the 420 likes
You are not alone ha ha ha
Everyone can like your comment instead!
You keep saying they are long lived... But WotC made their livespan 50years. Not long lived.
Yeah I think they should be long lived... I based some of this video of the kappa from pathfinder which can live 500+
Strength rogue, dump Dexterity
Beefy boi!
tortles can be small.....and ride on larger creatures.....you suck a enjoying things
Tiny or small tortles sounds pretty adorible
What art program do you use?
I use photoshop for the art and premiere for the videos
Are they amphibians ?
Nope, a common missconception. But turtles are indeed reptiles.
